Исследования со слабительными бисакодил и пикосульфат натрия показали, что они обычно облегчали симптомы даже в течение первого дня лечения.
Острый кашель: впервые четкие рекомендации по применению амброксола в качестве симптоматического лечения
Authors: Mueck Tobias
Published: August 2022

Согласно указаниям Немецкого респираторного общества, острый простудный кашель без клинических признаков пневмонии или других настораживающих симптомов является областью самолечения. Продолжительность – до двух недель – имеет решающее значение для отнесения к категории «острый». На основании рандомизированных контролируемых исследований авторы пришли к выводу, что амброксол (как и некоторые растительные лекарственные средства) сокращает продолжительность и/или уменьшает интенсивность кашля при остром бронхите. Декстрометорфан рекомендуется авторами указаний при сухом беспокоящем кашле, связанном с инфекцией верхних дыхательных путей.

Запор влияет не только на ежедневную дефекацию, но и на общее самочувствие соответствующих лиц. Онлайн-опрос, в котором приняли участие более 5000 человек, показал, что женщины чаще, чем мужчины, страдают от данного заболевания — как физически, так и эмоционально. Что касается лечения, данные исследований слабительных бисакодила и пикосульфата натрия указали на то, что женщины быстрее реагировали на слабительные и, относительно их качества жизни, получали больше пользы от лечения, чем мужчины.

Metaanalyse und narrativer Review bestätigen den Nutzen von essenziellen Phospholipiden bei der nichtalkoholischen Fettleber
Authors: Petcu Lorena , Popovic Branko
Published: August 2022

Die nichtalkoholische Fettleber (NAFL), die auch als metabolisch assoziierte Fettleber (MAFL) bezeichnet wird, ist eine der häufigsten Lebererkrankungen weltweit. Obgleich die NAFL mit metabolischen Risikofaktoren einhergeht, sind bis zu 40% der Patienten mit NAFL nicht adipös, können jedoch als stoffwechselerkrankt gelten. Aktuelle Behandlungsempfehlungen für die NAFL konzentrieren sich auf Maßnahmen zur Änderung der Lebensführung (Gewichtsabnahme, Ernährung, Bewegung), da, wenn überhaupt, nur wenige medikamentöse Behandlungen existieren. Essenzielle Phospholipide (EPL) werden von einigen Therapie-Leitlinien als unterstützende Behandlung empfohlen. Eine Metaanalyse unterstützt jetzt diese Empfehlung evidenzbasiert.

Niealkoholowa stłuszczeniowa choroba wątroby (ang. non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, NAFLD), zwana również stłuszczeniową chorobą wątroby związaną z zaburzeniami metabolicznymi (ang. metabolic associated fatty liver disease, MAFLD), jest jedną z najczęściej występujących chorób wątroby na świecie. Mimo że NAFLD jest związana z metabolicznymi czynnikami ryzyka, do 40% pacjentów z NAFLD nie jest otyłych, ale może być nadal uważanych za „niezdrowych” metabolicznie. Aktualne zalecenia dotyczące leczenia NAFLD skupiają się na interwencjach w zakresie stylu życia (utrata masy ciała, dieta, ćwiczenia), ponieważ nie ma prawie żadnych przyczynowych terapii farmakologicznych. Stosowanie fosfolipidów niezbędnych (ang. essential phospholipids, EPL) jest zalecane w niektórych wytycznych jako leczenie wspomagające. Aktualna metaanaliza dostarczyła dowodów wspierających to zalecenie.

Iran’s Satellite Media as a Heterotopic Space of Resistance and Competing Identities
Authors:   The Institute of Middle East, Koo Gi-Yeon
Published: August 2022

Since the beginning of satellite broadcasting in 1991, there are around 100 foreign satellite channel programs currently being broadcasted in Iran. Satellite channels in Persian from outside of Iran are create alternative discourses. Moreover Satellite Media became ‘Heterotopic Space’ of resistance and competing identites. In this process, a rupture is formed between the top-down national identity fed through the Islam republic and the identity built through the discourses formed through alternative media. The Iranian nationals come in contact with global issues and discourses through global channels, therefore the Iranian government emphasizes the ‘soft war’ and warned the negative effects. This study will examine the processes in which the satellite media become the eyes and ears of the citizens who long for change in Iran when anti-governmental social movement is under way, and in which the Iranian people become aware of the ‘power of solidarity’ through the satellite programs.
The Continuous Conflicts between Regional Hegemonic Competition and Buffer State to Death State: Analysis of the Lebanon Case
Authors:   The Institute of Middle East, Kim Doe-Hyung
Published: August 2022

This study analyzes how continuous conflicts between Israel and Iran which are known as two hegemonies in the region, affect converting Lebanon’s status from a buffer to a death. Since 1990, when Iran’s Influence began to expand after the Iraq and Iran War, the conflicts between Israel and Iran have continued until these days. In these conflicts, Lebanon has been a location of a proxy war between Israel and Iran and lost its buffer’s neutrality and roles. On the other hand, Lebanon is close to losing its right of control amid hegemonic conflicts. Thus, Lebanon has been converted into a death state which cannot make independent decisions. Accordingly, this study claims that the continuous conflicts between two hegemonies have a massive effect on a country’s status.
A Study on the Weakening of the Palestinian Cause and Changes in UAE-Israel Relations
Authors:   The Institute of Middle East, Kang Won-Gu
Published: August 2022

This paper tried to analyze the change in the relationship between the UAE and Israel after 2020 based on the perspective of behavioral constructivism. There was no particular change in exogenous variables surrounding the UAE before and after the Abraham Accord. Nevertheless, diplomatic relations between the two countries were normalized.
It starts from the hypothesis that this is due to the weakening of the ‘Palestinian cause’. Based on the constructivist mechanism, it was attempted to investigate the change of intersubjective understanding. As previous studies mainly conducted based on the realist perspective, this study intends to broaden the understanding of the UAE-Israel relationship.
An Application on Demand Forecasting and Stock Control for Aircraft Components
Authors: EKİN Emre
Published: August 2022

Today, the management of the inventory used in the aircraft maintenance-repair industry is an important issue. Spare parts inventory, in other words component inventory, constitutes the main capital resource of this type of companies. For this reason, it is an important and sensitive issue for organizations engaged in aircraft maintenance to effectively manage their spare parts stock. Effective and rational management of spare parts inventory will provide companies with significant cost advantages. While trying to increase service levels, companies aim to keep their inventory costs at minimum levels. In order to effectively manage the spare parts inventory, first of all, the demand forecast for the future must be made correctly. For this, techniques suitable for the part structure should be used. The next step after forecasting is to keep stock at a sufficient level of confidence to avoid running out of stock in the future. Because of this, demands are formulated by fitting distributions. In this study, component data of a local company that provides maintenance and spare parts services to the aircraft of airline companies in the aviation maintenance and repair sector was used. Demand patterns related to the data set were examined and discrete forecasting methods were applied to them. Afterwards, comparisons were made by using various distributions to determine the amount of spares that should be kept in stock. The results were interpreted and evaluated. It is assessed that this study will shed light on and benefit organizations operating in the aviation sector and other sectors in terms of spare part stock management and demand forecasting.
August Wilson: The Unrestrained Voice of Black America
Authors: Arpita Mitra
Published: August 2022

August Wilson, one of the most prominent figures in American theatre, explored the experiences of African- American community through his plays. He is best known for his series of ten plays which is collectively called The Pittsburgh Cycle/ Century Cycle/ Decade Cycle. In his works he dealt with the issues related particularly with black life like diaspora, dislocation, racism, slavery, segregation and in general with love, relationships, human predicament,  spirituality, life and death. He used theatre very powerfully to present black life on stage and to raise voice of protest against subjugation of the blacks by the whites. He strongly believed that the black people as a community and their cultural heritage can thrive only if they remain connected to their origin, ancestry, history and the African spiritualism.

Many Indian women writers have contributed to the development of Indian writing in English and taken it to the respectable position. Manjula Padmanabhan is one of them. She was born in Delhi in 1953. She has spent early years of her life in Europe and Southeast Asia. Later, she returned to India. She is a playwright, journalist, comic strip artist and children's book author. In Indian writing in English, Manjula Padmanabhan emerges as a sensitive writer who aims at the presenting the realistic problems instead of portraying the romantic, fanciful notions. She is one of the Indian woman playwright who attempted to bring a positive behavioural change in women towards themselves as well as society toward women. Her plays are issues oriented and deal with social reality. Thus, her style and content are realistic in a believable manner. Her plays are majorly women centric and thus present their perspective and narrative. Thus, this paper is a study of Manjula Padmanabhan’s Lights Out (2000) in the light of gender insensitivity and violence.

An Exploration on Evolution in the Teaching and Learning System
Authors: Dr. V. Bhuvaneswari  , Ms. Manika Joshi
Published: August 2022

When the whole world is going through a pandemic, a global shift in the teaching-learning system has become a necessary measure. The physical classroom lectures are replaced by the virtual classroom lectures with the help of technology and resources. But was this shift really required? How will this change affect the lives of the students and the teachers? Is it beneficial for the learners or one should resist the technological changes? Researchers and analysts opines this global pandemic as an opportunity for the students to learn new and extra skills which would give their careers a thrust start, yet some analysts believe that this new and advanced pedagogy is robbing the students off of their moral and ethical conduct. Online education is both a boon and a bane, where it is proved to be advantageous it also carries along with it its own disadvantages. For students suffering from poverty, it is a great opportunity as it cuts the costs and time of travel and the fees for the courses. It is comparatively less as compared to the offline courses but while it is beneficial for these students we must also consider the fact that some of these learners might be the first-generation learners and might not have the same resources or opportunities or knowledge as others. If efficiently used online education can prove to be very beneficial, a student has to be determined, motivated and dedicated when it comes to attending classes which are not supervised. This paper intends to explore the role of ICT’s in the teaching-learning system and its impact on the skills, patience, determination level and working ability in an individual.
Shadow of Death, and the Pastische that is Obi Okonkwo: A Reevaluation of Achebe’s No Longer at Ease
Authors: Bipasha Mandal
Published: August 2022

Chinua Achebe’s No Longer at Ease perfectly captures the ongoing plight of a colonized nation that is going through massive transitions. Though the character of Obi, Achebe sets out to map the future that Nigeria is headed towards which is dialectically interlocked with the past it has experienced. Extensive work has been done to carve out the literary parallels to and allusions mentioned in the novel. In this article I would like to argue how the character of Obi and his spiritual death allegorizes the fragmentation of the nation as a whole; how his fragmentation also stems from language, both Igbo and English, through which Obi fails to coherently express himself; furthermore, this paper would also try to establish religion's link to the same fragmentation. This article also points to a lacuna which will, hopefully, be filled and takes the research available in this area further.
Gender Inequality and Male Hegemony in Kiran Nagarkar’s Seven Sixes Are Forty Three
Authors: Dr. Ashish Gupta
Published: August 2022

Gender discrimination is subject to the history of this whole universe. In the male dominant society the ratio of facing gender bias and patriarchy may differ but no one in this universe is untouched by this fact. Male hegemony has always been inspected as a dominant figure throughout every corner of society and women’s from their very birth are taught and pressurized to follow this cultural biased gender inequality. Without trying need and importance to understand that society is incomplete and baseless without women and no society or country can ever progress without the active participation of women in its social, cultural and economic activities. The main cause of gender discrimination arises due to deep rooted desire to gain power and feeling insecure of others because the male dominated society deliberately constitutes the policies and regulation forcing women to stay in four boundaries of home and remain stereotype and weak as compared to men.

Kamala Das: Her Concerns
Authors: Satpreet Kaur
Published: August 2022

One cannot think of a better way of introducing the concerns of Kamala Das- than by, quoting from her autobiography - My Story. “Poets, even the most significant of them are different from other people. They cannot close their shops like shop men and return home. Their shop is their mind and as long as they carry it with them; they feel the pressure and the torment.” (MS, 165). Reading Kamala Das’s works have been like journeying through a land that has its share of flood and famine, of lush green gardens and cold graves and scorching sun and rain bow skies, such is the harvest of thought in her work. Her works take leap from love to life, to death with the adeptness of an ace sprinter and the peculiar charm lies in how she manages love and life with the same intensity that she employs to celebrate them.

His protagonists get their sexual identities after going through many social, political, and cultural upheavals.
When the Festival Drums Beat: Demystifying Festival Cuisine in Kerala
Authors: Dr. Asha Krishnan
Published: August 2022

Food and culture are inextricably bound together. The food we eat carries the trait of our culture. Though unnoticed, the food that we eat every day and the special cuisine that we prepare for festivals, all reveal we are a part of the invisible cultural link. The cuisine of a region mirrors its history, tradition, culture and lifestyle. Kerala is often described as a “museum of races and cultures”. In Kerala Hinduism, Christianity and Islam are the main religions followed by a majority of people. A cursory look at the festival cuisine of these communities reveals a drastic difference in culture. While the Hindus stick on to vegetarian sadya on festival days, Christians and Muslims celebrate with non-vegetarian food. In an analogous geographic milieu, the gastronomic alterations of different communities provide an insight that food habits and culture are things that are kept intact to be handed down to generations. This paper tries to analyse the trajectories of history and culture that has moulded the food habits of the main communities in Kerala.
Three Generations Having the Same Treatment: Feminist Study of The God of Small Things
Authors: Dr Ajita Bhattacharya
Published: August 2022

Men controlled society additionally assumes a significant part in downsizing the state of the characters in the novel, seen from the feminist point of view. The novel The God of Small Things is essentially a novel by a woman about women and it has been seen through the eyes of a woman. It is a women-centered novel in the sensibility of pity and fear. It brings out before the readers the state of fair sexes in a specific social milieu. The tale presents three ages of women: Baby Kochamma, Mammachi Ammu and Rahel, and all are despondent in their own specific manners. The story of the novel puts before the readers how in a patriarchal-society woman are just removal things. Practically, each and every female character directly from Mammachi, Ammu, Baby Kochamma, Rahel, to the minor characters like Kalyani, and K.N.M. Pillai's niece, Latha is the casualty of male bullhead society.
Teacher Competency and the Needs of the Learner
Authors: Dr. Sandhya Tripathi
Published: August 2022

In any educational system there are broadly speaking, five clearly defined components. They are: (1) students, their needs and expectations; (2) teachers, their competencies and commitment; (3) infrastructure which includes buildings, libraries, laboratories and classrooms; and (4) syllabi of courses, their framing and execution; and (5) most importantly a clearly conceived and unambiguously stated objective. Detailed discussions on the theoretical aspects of these components can go on ad infinitum. In order to make our discussions meaningful and relevant, it will, of course, be desirable to read our analysis of the related issues in the context of our own situation in the country. It will not be an exaggeration to assert that the area which attracted the least serious attention of those responsible for the governance of our educational system during the post-independence period is education. We may gloat over the unbridled proliferation of educational institutions and explosion of student-population flocking to these institutions. But the big question remains and that is whether our educational system as a whole is founded on any definite objective which alone can provide a sustainable direction. Flexibility in objectives is understandable but a radical deviation from the age-old purpose of liberal education meant for shaping humans into a worthwhile creation of God can only prove disastrous. Education should aim at primarily developing students' personality and chiselling those inherent traits in him with which he is born in God's own image. This assertion may sound too holistic to utilitarian ears. But it has stood the test of time since humanity came into existence

Various issues emanate from diaspora as ethnicity, migration, incompatibility and identity crisis etc. In recent times, a gaggle of Indian women writers have left their indelible mark on the sand of Diasporic Literature, some of the distinguished names are: Bharati Mukherjee, Kiran Desai, Meera Alexander, Jhumpa Lahiri, Geete Mehta, Suneeta Peres de Coasta and Chita Banerjee Divakaruni etc. These writers have enriched Diasporic literature with their invaluable versatile writings by portraying the immigrant experiences. Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni has cemented a secure place at the Parnassus of South Asian Diasporic literature. Deeply rooted in cultural ethos, Divakaruni’s novels weave around myth, magic, reality, cross cultural impact, customs, and identity crisis etc. The novel The Mistress of Spices (1997) presents diasporic sensibility exploring and identifying the various kinds of problems faced by immigrants. The people come from different countries born and brought up in different cultural background and lose sheen in the glamour of pell-mell of western civilisation craving for identity. The paper is a humble attempt to explore the diasporic sensibility and gauge the immigrant experiences felt by the writer and carried through the characters of the novel forward.
Women in Different Dimensions in Margaret Atwood and Anita Desai
Authors: Dr. Charu Mehrotra
Published: August 2022

In Margaret Atwood's novel The Edible Woman and Anita Desai's novels Cry, the Peacock, Voices in the City and Where Shall We Go This Summer? attempts have been made by some women characters to 'liberate' themselves from and to find alternatives to the institution of marriage. A study of the careers of these women characters enables one to arrive at the attitudes of these two women novelists towards the institution of marriage and the women's liberation movement.
What’s It Like to Be a Universe: Implications of Being In, Of, and About a Brain, or a Speculative Panconsciousness Approach to Quantum Nonlocality
Authors: Gruber David Robert
Published: August 2022

The problem of quantum nonlocality references instantaneous entanglements happening between particles at great distances, putting under question physical assumptions about time and local effects. Despite a wide range of proposed solutions in physics, the problem persists; however, due to the recent interest in panconsciousness and panpsychism in philosophy as well as numerous suggestions that consciousness and quantum physics are intimately related, I argue in favor of thinking strange quantum effects—and nonlocality as case in point—in lieu of conscious activity happening at a universal scale. Drawing on the mind-brain problem or “the hard problem” as an intellectual resource and particularly pertinent metaphor in the case helps to illuminate the argument; briefly stated, I argue that a conscious universe eliminates the necessity of thinking distance as a problem needing to be resolved to comprehend disparate physical observations. In other words, I offer a speculative vision for quantum nonlocality and ultimately aim to encourage scholars to more carefully consider what it is like to be In, Of, and About a brain when thinking about the universe.
Toward a Critique of Fascist Temporality
Authors: Johnson Rylie
Published: August 2022

This article pursues a Deleuzian critique of fascist temporality, or how fascism conceives of its relationship to time and history. This is done through a reading of Gilles Deleuze’s critique of Martin Heidegger’s history of being and his active membership in the National Socialist party. Deleuze and Félix Guattari argue that Heidegger’s history of being forms a teleological conception of history that philosophically justified his endorsement of National Socialism. Rejecting this model of thinking, Deleuze constructs a philosophy of becoming, which refers to the possibility of revolutionary events that could not be accounted for by historical time. In this article, I argue that Heideggerian temporality accords with the historical time that Deleuze’s events explicitly undermine. While Heidegger’s history of being led him to affirm fascist politics, Deleuze’s view of events leads him to affirm the revolutionary struggles of marginalized groups. This article concludes with a Deleuzian elaboration of the temporality of fascism. Fascism is defined by a circular return and repetition of a historical past, which forecloses the very possibility of revolution.
Scenes of Walking: Toward a Right of Absorptive Theatricality and Theatrical Absorption
Authors: Rothleder Dianne
Published: August 2022

Using Michael Fried’s work on absorption and theatricality, and Walter Benjamin’s figure of the flâneur and its counterpart, the detective, and his disparaged figure of the badaud, this article considers ways to characterize the walks of Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s solitary walker, Socrates on the way to the Symposium, Henry V walking on the battlefield the night before Agincourt, and Trayvon Martin the evening he was killed by George Zimmerman. Each of these walks is a variation on contemplation, the risk of death, and the role of absorption and theatricality. I work toward a notion of theatrical absorption, or absorptive theatricality—the right to be out walking dressed in what could be a costume, and yet absorbed. This right includes the right to make it home alive, a right denied to Trayvon Martin. The article explores the tensions that might explain this tragic fact.

The biosolids resulting from the sludge treatment from sewage treatment plants improve soil conditioning and are rich in nutrients. However, despite the benefits to soil and plants, as well as the sustainable appeal, the agricultural use of biosolids in Brazil is still not widespread. In this Technical Note (TN), the objective is to present some Brazilian experiences with biosolids in the light of relevant legislation, as well as to discuss aspects and potential related uses. Paraná and São Paulo states are the main references in agricultural use, with experiences of sanitization with alkaline stabilization and composting. In this TN the criteria for the use of biosolids are presented, according to the new CONAMA Resolution 498/2020, as well as the challenges related to the agricultural sector and public acceptance. Public policies to support rural producers for the application of biosolids are also discussed, to promote transformation of a rich by-product of sewage treatment into a resource for agricultural use, in a vision of circular economy.
Regime de queima em Goiás, Brasil, e em Moçambique entre 2010 e 2019: frequência, recorrência e classes de cobertura mais afetadas

Published: August 2022

Nos últimos anos, o mundo tem experienciado eventos extremos relacionados à ocorrência do fogo, que vêm causando uma série de danos às populações e ecossistemas. Em 2020 incêndios assolaram Austrália, Brasil, Estados Unidos, entre outras nações. Isso dá à temática dos incêndios florestais relevância e urgência globais e torna necessários a maior compreensão e o monitoramento desses eventos. O presente trabalho buscou identificar semelhanças e diferenças no regime de fogo, mais especificamente na frequência e recorrência, entre Moçambique e no Estado de Goiás, Brasil, entre 2010 e 2019. Ambos os recortes estão localizados na mesma zona bioclimática, onde estão presentes as savanas. Estas, consideradas ecossistemas com maior resiliência ao fogo, não estão imunes às consequências de incêndios intensos e frequentes. Logo, monitorar tais eventos nesses ecossistemas é importante, principalmente para identificar características que possam nortear a tomada de decisões. As etapas metodológicas para o desenvolvimento da presente pesquisa envolveram organização de base de dados e uso de plataformas de processamento geoespacial baseado em nuvem, o que resultou em produtos de caracterização dos eventos de queima. Em ambos os recortes estudados, o fogo ocorre anualmente em extensões consideráveis, principalmente no caso de Moçambique, cujo percentual de área queimada anualmente é maior que o de Goiás. Tal dinâmica pode estar relacionada a especificidades de cada região. Os presentes resultados possibilitam melhor compreensão de como se dá a ocorrência de incêndios e queimadas em diferentes savanas e podem motivar outras pesquisas a respeito, com vistas a maiores esclarecimentos.
Projeto para a desconstrução como instrumento para a preservação de recursos hídricos na construção civil
Authors: Spadotto Aryane , Gadda Tatiana Maria Cecy , Nagalli André
Published: August 2022

Com as preocupações relacionadas ao consumo de recursos naturais, alterações no espaço urbano e a geração de resíduos pela construção civil, estratégias foram criadas e desenvolvidas para a promoção do desenvolvimento ambientalmente sustentado. Uma delas é o projeto para a desconstrução como alternativa para a minimização dos resíduos sólidos, o prolongamento da vida útil de materiais, a preservação da energia incorporada e a redução de áreas para aterros e do consumo de recursos naturais. Diante das mudanças no perfil de consumo e dos registros da preocupação com o enfrentamento de uma nova crise hídrica, este trabalho visa identificar as diretrizes de projeto para a desconstrução que contribuem para a preservação de recursos hídricos. Para o desenvolvimento deste estudo foi realizada revisão bibliográfica narrativa com a pesquisa documental nas bases Scopus e Google Acadêmico fazendo uso de palavras-chave relacionadas ao tema. Com as buscas, verificou-se que há fases em que o consumo de água na construção civil é negligenciado, com etapas pouco exploradas, e ausência de dados e informações disponíveis. Para atingir o objetivo proposto, as informações sobre o consumo de água no setor e as diretrizes da desconstrução foram compiladas e relacionadas. Os vínculos entre as diretrizes de projeto para a desconstrução e as informações sobre o uso da água nas fases do ciclo de vida de edificações foram demonstrados e analisados com fluxogramas. Com base nessa análise, foi verificado que a desconstrução contribui para a preservação ambiental por considerar a edificação de forma integral, em todas as fases de existência.

Mekânsal algı bağlamında şaşırtıcı bakış açıları ortaya koyan aydınlatma illüzyonları, iç mekân tasarımında gün geçtikçe daha yaygın bir rol üstlenmektedir. Yapılan çalışmada bu rolün ne olduğu ve ne oranda kullanıldığı soruları üzerinde durulmuştur. Amaç, aydınlatma ve illüzyon ilişkisinin mekâna nasıl yansıdığını tartışarak tasarımcılara farklı bakış açıları kazandıracak bir veri kümesi elde edebilmektir. Çalışmada öncelikle literatür analizi ile kuramsal çerçeve oluşturulmuştur. Ardından, belirlenen mekân örnekleri irdelenmiş, aydınlatma illüzyonunun iç mekânda hangi amaçlar doğrultusunda kullanıldığı sınıflandırılmıştır. Buna göre psikolojik ve fizyolojik illüzyon olarak iki türe ayrılan aydınlatma illüzyonu altında, toplam 10 illüzyon yaklaşımı olduğu görülmüştür. Son olarak, aydınlatma illüzyonu yaklaşımları örneklenmiş ve değerlendirilmiştir. Yapılan değerlendirmede mekânın işlevi ile illüzyon yaklaşımları arasında tercih edilme sebebi ile kullanım yoğunluğu açılarından ilişkiler bulunduğu belirlenmiştir.
