Second Life of Narts and Daredzans: An Essay on Russian Verse Translations from Ossetian Folk Epos
Authors: Khugaev Irlan Sergeevich
Published: June 2022

The process of recording and publication of the texts of Ossetian folk epic literature has its own history, directly related to the evolution of Ossetian Enlightenment. Its most important landmarks have been registered and described in detail; first of all, the material has been divided into periods and classified in the ethnographic, cultural-historical and sociopolitical aspects. This article is devoted to elaboration on its purely philological characteristics and poetic features. Even an introductory survey lets us single out the main parameters of this vast literary stratum. First, the Ossetian folk epos has been recorded both in Ossetian and in Russian, which fact did reflect the bilingual nature of Ossetian literature. Secondly, the Ossetian folk epos has been represented by two epic cycles: the Nart and the Daredzan sagas. Thirdly, the Ossetian folk epos exists in written form in two literary genres: prosaic and poetic. It is evident that the recording of Ossetian folk epic literature means the fixation of the interior, immanent archetypes of ethnic artistic mentality, and of the peculiar rhythms of folk poetic breathing. In this respect, of special interest are the Russian verse translations and interpretations as texts that: declare this lore at the outside contour of the Ossetian culture and serve as a means of spiritual communications among Russia’s ethnic communities; intrinsically match the internal with the external, and the immanent with the borrowed; and represent a product with a vividly expressed author’s individual inception. These texts, viz. the translations and adaptations of Ossetian folk epos performed at various times by A.Z. Kubalov, S.M. Gorodetsky, G.G. Maliev, D.A. Gatuev, V.A. Dynnik, Rurik Ivnev, as well as the unpublished experiments of Ada Vladimirova and Mussa Khakim, became the subject of this study. In this article, we have put forward the challenge to: perform a general recording of the previously known texts in the chronological order, with the designation of their main peculiarities and most typical circumstances; put into general practice data on the newly found texts of the shown type; and generalize the material according to dynamic and properly poetic criteria.
Kabardian Fable: Archetypal Core and Ethnospecific Poetics
Authors: Khashir Kara Oskarovna
Published: June 2022

Fable artifabulas, which are transhistorical in nature, have many ethnocultural refractions in the literature of different peoples of the world. In this article, with methodological support on the works of I.G. Herder, G.D. Gachev, as well as contemporary Caucasian scholars, the author explores the specifics of the Kabardian fable, taken in the dialectical unity of its stable, archetypal constants and nationally determined contexts. By the example of the fables of K. Atazhukin, A. Dymov, B. Zhanimov, B. Kagermazov, P. Tambiev, B. Tkhamokov, M. Khakuasheva, P. Shekikhachev, T. Sheretlokov, A. Shomakhov, H. Elberdov the law of correlation between moral values declared by poets and the postulates of the Kabardian ethical code “Adyghe Khabze” is shown. Within the framework of historical poetics, the author demonstrates three-stage evolutionary process associated with the transition of fabulists from the practice of borrowing classical subjects to national adaptation, and then to the creation of original texts. Much attention is paid to the decoding of symbolic images.
Metaconcepts “Caucasus” and “Asia” as Dominant Constructs of the Ethnic Picture of the World of the Russian-speaking Writer Boris Chipchikov
Authors: Shormanova Innayat Aslanbekovna
Published: June 2022

The author of the article considers the metaconcepts “Caucasus” and “Asia” as the main ethno-cultural constructs of the work of the Russian-speaking writer Boris Chipchikov. The relevance of the stated topic lies in the fact that the artistic world of the bilingual author, being one of the significant fragments of the world picture, in particular the linguistic world picture, reflects the value system of the linguoculture of those ethnic groups in whose languages the works were created, in this case - the Karachay-Balkar and Russian linguocultures. The study revealed that the semantic core of the ethnic model of creativity of B. Chipchikov is composed of the metaconcepts “Caucasus” and “Asia” with a wide range of components that actualize a variety of associations that reflect the mental preferences, cognitive consciousness of the writer, his ambiguous attitude to the “native”/“to a stranger”. The work uses a number of scientific methods, including methods of conceptual, component, linguocognitive analysis (to characterize metaconcepts and concepts), the method of description (to decipher the results of the study). The results obtained can be used in the further development of the problems of bilingualism, translinguism and transculturation, which are of scientific interest to modern linguists.
Variation in Translation of Ossetian Sacral Onyms by Means of the Russian and English Languages
Authors: Bekoeva Irina Davidovna
Published: June 2022

One of the most important tasks facing the translator is adequacy of the translation. The relevance and topicality of the present study is due to the need of: 1) developing a unified approach to the choice of translation strategies and methods of transferring ethnospecifically coloured sacral onyms by means of the Russian and English languages; 2) describing and analyzing the methods of interptetation of Ossetian precedent sacral onyms. The subject of the research is presented by the semantic, structural and functional characteristics of sacral onyms, as well as extra-linguistic factors of interlingual communication that influence the choice of translation correspondences by means of the target languages. The sources of the illustrative material of the study are presented by text fragments taken from Internet resources and reflecting the representativeness of the analyzed precedent onyms in social communication. The methodological basis of the research is the synchronous principle of linguistic description, which contributes to identifying the peculiarities of the formation of translation correspondences in the context of modern ideas about the strategies of translation of the onymic segment of vocabulary. The complex nature of the research has led to the use of a diverse set of research methods (the method of description, classification and systematization of linguistic material according to certain criteria for processing research materials; comparative analysis of the correspondent texts in different languages; component analysis).The results of the research consist in the systematization of the methods of finding translation correspondences, in order to determine the algorithm for solving the problems facing the translator.

Repeated and Prolonged Drought Exposure Reveals Contrasting Hydraulic Management Strategies Used by Tolerant and Sensitive Genotypes of Sorghum bicolor
Authors: Lehrer Melissa A. , Hawkins Jennifer S.
Published: June 2022

Climate change-induced variations in temperature and precipitation
negatively impact plant growth and development. To ensure future food
quality and availability, a critical need exists to identify phenotypic
and physiological responses that confer drought tolerance in
agronomically important crop plants. In this study, two Sorghum
bicolor accessions that differ in their pre-flowering responses to
drought were exposed to cycles of drying and rewatering. Morphological,
physiological, and histological traits were measured across juvenile and
adult developmental stages. Our results suggest that induction of
stomatal closure works to prevent hydraulic damage under drought
conditions, particularly when morphological and histological adjustments
are unable to compensate for this hydraulic risk. These findings
demonstrate that morphology, histology, and physiology may work
independently over developmental time to achieve a shared goal of
regulating transpirational water loss to mitigate the risk of xylem
embolism.

Authors: Alrabiah Khaled , Aractingi Selim , Sohier Pierre
Published: June 2022

Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is an exceedingly rare nonmalignant histiocytic condition of unknown etiology. Immunohistochemistry reveals that RDD cells are S-100 positive and CD1a negative. Emperipolesis is a frequent histological finding that is not exclusive to RDD. Although lymph node and cutaneous signs are the most common, other organs might be affected. Regardless of therapy, the clinical course is uncertain. We describe a series of nine instances with lymph node and/or cutaneous lesions. Lymph nodes were shown to be involved in a variety of locations, including the mediastinum and retroperitoneum. The therapeutic response to steroids was varied, and the response to chemotherapy was unsatisfactory. Two individuals had associated autoimmune illnesses (Sjögren syndrome and vasculitis). In a follow-up, these individuals had a positive outcome regardless of therapeutic mode.

Authors: ÜNAL Uğur , AKYÜZ Dilek Eren
Published: June 2022

Kentsel bölgelerde kullanılan ve geçirimsiz yüzeylerden oluşan gri altyapı sistemleri birtakım kentsel sürdürülebilirlik problemlerine sebep olmaktadır. Dolayısıyla bu tür problemleri çözmek için gri altyapı sistemleri çözüm olamamakta ve daha farklı bir anlayışa ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Kentsel bölgelerin sürdürülebilirliğini sağlamak için yeşil altyapı gibi çevre dostu sistemlerin kullanımı son yıllarda dünyada da yaygınlaşan ve bu tür problemlerin çözümünde kullanılan uygulamalardır. Bu uygulamalar doğayı taklit ederek doğal kaynakların sürdürülebilir şekilde kullanımını sağlamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, yeşil ve gri altyapı sistemlerini kentsel bölgelerin sürdürülebilirliği açısından karşılaştırmalı olarak değerlendirmek ve farklı sürdürülebilirlik göstergelerini temel alarak performans analizi yapmaktır. Dolayısıyla bu çalışmada yeşil altyapı sistemlerinden olan ıslak ve kuru yağmur hendeklerinin gri altyapı sistemleri ile Bulanık Analitik Hiyerarşi Prosesi (BAHP) kullanılarak karşılaştırılması yapılmış ve kentsel sürdürebilirlik bakımından performansları değerlendirilmiştir. Karşılaştırma amacıyla sürdürülebilirliğin çevresel, sosyal ve ekonomik alt başlıklarında toplam 10 adet sürdürülebilirlik göstergesi ele alınmıştır. Her bir gösterge için literatür araştırmasına dayanan bulanık bir puanlama sistemi oluşturulmuş ve bu puanlar üçgensel bulanık sayıya dönüştürülerek BAHP’de gerekli işlemler yapılıp sonuçlar değerlendirilmiştir. Elde edilen toplam bulanık öncelik ve durulaştırılmış öncelik tabloları incelendiğinde ıslak ve kuru yağmur hendeklerinin gri altyapı sistemlerine kıyasla kentsel sürdürülebilirlik açısından oldukça üstün bir performansa sahip olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Bu sonuca göre kentsel bölgelerde gri altyapı sistemleri yerine yağmur hendekleri gibi yeşil altyapı uygulamalarının tercih edilmesi bu bölgelerin gelecek nesillere daha sağlıklı ve sürdürülebilir şekilde ulaşmasını sağlayacaktır. Dolayısıyla bu tür uygulamaların özellikle yoğun kentsel bölgelerde yaygınlaştırılması ve çevre bilimciler tarafından bölge yöneticilerinin bu konularda bilinçlendirilerek teşvik edilmesi gerekmektedir.

Collaborative Artifical Intelligence Concept: Federated Learning Review
Authors: NERGİZ Mehmet
Published: June 2022

Artificial intelligence (AI) draws its power from big data. However, accessing and processing big data may not always be possible due to both confidentiality and hardware requirements for high computational performance. Federated learning (FL) is a new concept proposed to solve the aforementioned privacy & big data dilemma. FL is also a framework that performs updating of the parameters of a common AI model trained by the different participants and then combining the updated parameters through the coordinator while protecting data privacy. Due to the modular design of the FL concept, the workload is shared among the participants while protecting data privacy. It also provides advantages like scalability in terms of collaborator count and higher performance and lower execution time for some sort of problems. Depending on the similarity of the feature and sample spaces of the collaborators, there are some FL approaches such as horizontal, vertical and transfer. FL is applicable to any field in which machine learning methods are utilized and the data privacy is an important issue. Healthcare services, transportation sector, financial technologies and natural language processing are the prominent fields where horizontal FL concept is applied. On the other hand, AI-based collaborations between the sectors can be developed with vertical and transfer FL concepts.

Published: June 2022

The article deals with the interpretation of keywords as indicators of registering intertextual properties in English New Testament texts. The notion of “intertextuality” is represented in terms of three approaches: philosophical-poststructuralist, philological, and genre-textual is considered to be a complex interdisciplinary phenomenon and is characterised as a system-textual and prototypical category, with an emphasis on the typological properties of textuality. It has been proved that in order to register the intertextuality in English New Testament Texts, the notions of “keywords” and “life cycle” as indicators of actualization (active vocabulary) or deactualization (passive vocabulary) of tokens represented in a specific type and kind of discourse were introduced. AntConc corpus manager as an artificial intelligence programme, which is a free and multifunctional tool for statistical research of texts of different languages of various discourses (Dr Laurence Anthony), helped to establish the following most frequent keywords of intertextuality in English New Testament texts: God (1372), Jesus (989), Man (908), Lord (728), Christ (571), Will (555), Son (422), Father (370), Spirit (299), Heaven (256).
Theoretical and Methodological Aspects of the Humanistic Reorientation of Modern Society
Authors: MELNYK Olga , SHAKUN Nataliia , HERASYMENKO Olena , NITCHENKO Alla , KOLIEVATOV Oleksii
Published: June 2022

Modern socio-philosophical discourse is in a state of humanistic reorientation. Hence, the subject of scientific exploration is the theoretical and methodological substantiation of humanistic principles of the scientific picture of the world. The research aims to develop the constants of humanism, which constitute a humanistically oriented sociocultural space. The result of the work is the illumination of the interaction of fundamental humanistic aspects of responsibility, activity, creativity, and self-organization. Humanism differs significantly from its previous versions in its modern socio-philosophical interpretation. First of all, it deals with the realities of modern human civilization, balancing between dialectical confrontation and synergetic combination. This is how the methodological basis of the humanities-science discourse is formed, which increasingly gravitates toward a philosophical-synergetic manifestation. Philosophy and science of the present interpret the human being not only in the classical natural science or humanities perspective. The dichotomy of transdisciplinarity (which generates diversity) and anthropocentrism (which is grounded in the supremacy of the human being) is relevant today. Humanistic orientation acts as a regulator for the rapid development of scientific and technological progress, in which moral and spiritual values are lost. Thus, the humanistic paradigm forms the methodological guidelines for the social cluster.

Society has concerns when there are actions that are not according to the law. Law enforcers must develop legal mindsets to fill the legal void in society by providing legal practice or legal rationing through legal interpretation. This paper aims to analyze: (1) What is the role of logic and legal rationing in achieving justice? (2) Describe the legal condition and the image of the pressure of formal law in society! And (3) What roles do judges have in justly enforcing the law? The results of the study found that (1) A just decision with a conscience will result in quality decisions. They are progressive as opposed to blindly following formality, (2) In reality, the law no longer represents high virtues, but rather, it represents political interests to sustain some people’s domination. The positivist legal system should develop a new alternative structure that is less rigid, (3) Judges have the freedom to choose the best and most accurate alternative in reaching a just decision. In conclusion, judges must be able to make decisions based on conscience without ignoring the formal law to fulfil society’s need for justice.

Enzymatic and Non-Enzymatic Response during Nitrosative Stress in Escherichia coli
Authors: Nath Rohan , Sengupta Swarnab , Bhattacharjee Arindam
Published: June 2022

Nitrosative stress is an adverse physiological condition mediated by an excessive level of reactive nitrogen species (RNS). RNS react with the different macromolecules in vivo and result in the inactivation of these molecules. But the mechanism to counteract the effect of nitrosative stress is poorly understood. Escherichia coli is one of the best understood and well-studied microorganism. Although several studies have been reported on Escherichia coli to characterize the effect of various stress response but fewer works are there to see the effect of nitrosative stress. Escherichia coli encounter numerous stresses during its growth, survival, and infection. They respond to various stress conditions by activating common regulator proteins and thiols. These stress conditions result in the accumulation of these regulator proteins and thiols that allow cells to adjust to specific stress situations, conferring stress tolerance and survival. In this review, different enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to counteract the effect of nitrosative stress in Escherichia coli have been discussed and a hypothesis for the working mechanism of hybrid cluster protein that helps to combat nitrosative stress has been proposed. Here, we have tried to give a clear scenario about the mode of action of stress-responsive elements present in Escherichia coli.

Muscarinic Receptor Antagonism and Allergen Induced Airway Responses in Allergic Asthma: A Scoping Review
Authors: Davis Beth E. , Cropper Kayla J. , Cockcroft Donald W. Cockcroft
Published: June 2022

Purpose: The purpose of this scoping review was to identify existing clinical and basic science knowledge surrounding the effect of muscarinic receptor antagonism on allergen-induced airway responses to inform future clinical research in this area.
Methods: Multiple advanced searches were performed using the National Library of Medicine PubMed search engine. Each search began with two terms; for example, “atropine and asthma” or “tiotropium and airway inflammation”. Results were then further refined to include terms such as “allergen” or “ovalbumin (OVA)”. Abstracts of refined searches were reviewed for relevance to allergic asthma and allergen-induced airway responses including the early and late asthmatic responses, airway inflammation and tissue remodelling. There was no restriction regarding publication date. Reference lists of selected papers were also reviewed for relevant publications.
Results: Nine human clinical trial publications and fourteen animal model publications were identified. In humans, single dose atropine (n=4), ipratropium (n=4) or oxitropium (n=1) administered pre-challenge produced equivocal effects on allergen-induced early asthmatic responses as reported but favored inhibition in eight of nine studies after re-analyses. Animal model investigations (n=14) showed mostly favorable results, especially with respect to airway inflammation and tissue remodelling, although two studies were negative, and one study showed a worsening in allergen induced airway inflammation following muscarinic receptor antagonism.
Conclusion: Existing human and animal model data suggest muscarinic receptor antagonism may be beneficial in preventing allergen induced airway responses in those with allergic asthma. Additional human research utilizing current standardized methodologies is required.

The bond strength between the steel fiber and the ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) matrix plays a significant role in improving the behavior of plain UHPC. This paper compiles the existing experimental research database on the pullout bond performance of steel fibers embedded in UHPC. The variations of key parameters in the database are the steel fiber type and geometry, fiber volume fractions, and fiber embedded length. The effects of these parameters are analyzed and discussed in detail. Based on the analysis of the results, it was found that the deformed steel fibers, i.e., the hooked-end, half-hooked-end, and twisted steel fibers clearly provided higher average bond strengths than that straight fibers. The average pullout bond strength was obtained by increasing of fiber volume fraction in the UHPC matrix up to 2% (11.21MPa) with an increment of 20.4%. When the steel fiber volume fractions increase beyond 2%, the average bond strength decreases. Additionally, it was also found that using smaller embedded lengths in deformed steel fibers could result in the improvement of bond strength. This could be due to the fact that the bond is controlled by the mechanical anchorage of the end-hook rather than the physio-chemical bond in the straight portion. Conversely, increasing the embedded length of steel fiber could greatly contribute to the enhancement of pullout resistance resulting in increased bond strength between the UHPC matrix and steel fibers.
