La categoría estética de “bella verdad”, en la saga “Juanito Laguna”, de Antonio Berni
Authors: Bellocchio Mabel Rosa
Published: September 2022

The aesthetic category of beauty is not necessarily related to the epistemic category of the truth. Needless to say, there are beautiful things that are not certain and true things that are not beautiful. However, the history of art offers us a number of examples in which both categories correspond. To this happy coincidence of the beauty and the truth, where the truth reveals a way of denouncing injustices, refers the category of beautiful truth. A reflection is done into this article, substantially based on this category from Antonio Berni’s work, traced in the classic Greek notions of kalokagathia and alétheia, in the aesthetics of Bertolt Brecht and in the plastic art of Diego Rivera and Cándido Portinari. These antecedents, would allow to explain, the aesthetic positioning of the Argentine artist, considering that its work expresses an inextricable fusion between beauty and truth unmasking what otherwise could not be showed up because it would be inconvenient for the sustain of an unjust social order.
Visibilidad e inteligibilidad en Fairytale (2007) de Ai Weiwei
Authors: Rabadán Villalpando María Eugenia
Published: September 2022

Ai Weiwei, the known artist born in China in 1957, was invited to exhibit his work at the contemporary art exhibition documenta XII, Kassel, Germany. There he shows Fairytale (Bovier y Schnetz). This work is about the design of 1001 Chinese people trip to that German city on which, for five weeks, coexist daily a transcultural experience at the West–inconceivable outside of the contemporary artistic context–. The piece displayed a multidisciplinary visual arts complex which works ensembled: –cinematography, photography, architecture, design, performance art, Net Art…–. The theory and method of this work understood the enormous creative capacity of ready-made –still valid in the current art– to make visible and intelligible the active social sculpture in the contemporary art context, among other problems. In the same way, the analysis of this work also addresses the concept of visual indifference relative to the ready-made, according to Marcel Duchamp, who is based on the philosophy of Pyrrhon de Elis. The ready-made theory, shared by Ai Weiwei, has led him to point out that this concept of art has no relation with taste and can, as we will see in Fairytale, be included on this antithesis. Finally, we will analyze the way in which this work is partially different from the Duchampian notion of ready-made.

CONTAGIOUS INVESTOR SENTIMENTS AND THEIR VOLATILITIES
Authors:   International Master in Business Administration Program, KOSHOEV ASKAR
Published: September 2022

This study examines the cross-country relationships of investor sentiments. Dis- coveries of linkages across fourteen developed and emerging markets provide evidence of in- terdependencies. Employing CCI as a proxy for investor sentiments and ARIMA-EGARCH models, this study has successfully captured multiple instances of spillover of sentiments and volatilities. The results suggest that most markets have at least one-directional association with another market by either spreading or being exposed to investor sentiments. Moreover, the division of the sample into pre and post-global crisis periods suggests that the senti- ments are becoming more contagious as technologies advance, leading to further integration between the markets.

Authors: Ikawati Ratna , Rianto Fadjar , Palupi Tantri
Published: September 2022

Applying organic fertilizer that has been decomposed with Trichoderma sp. on ultisol soil can improve soil’s physical, chemical, and biological quality, and therefore is expected to increase the growth and yield of tomato plants. The study aimed to determine the effect of the type of organic fertilizer enriched with Trichoderma sp. in increasing tomato yields on ultisol soils. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse in Kuburaya Regency, West Kalimantan, from June to September 2021 using a factorial completely randomized design. The first factor was the provision of organic fertilizers, namely cow manure, chicken manure, and rice straw bokashi. The second factor was the provision of Trichoderma sp., namely T. hamantum isolates RRA3 and T. viridae isolates RRB7. The interaction of chicken manure and cow manure with the two species of Trichoderma sp. accelerated harvest age and increased the number of fruits and fruit weight per plant. Cow manure enriched with T. hamantum isolates RRA3 increased the shoot dry weight. Among organic fertilizers, cow manure accelerated harvest age and increased the shoot dry weight, fruit number, fruit weight per plant, and single fruit weight.

Authors: Nurul Komala  , Syarifah Iis Aisyah  , Nurcholis Waras
Published: September 2022

Java cardamom is an important commodity that produces secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites of Java cardamom are utilized as an anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and anticancer. Improve secondary metabolite through colchicine-induced mutation are necessary to get polyploid. It has been reported that polyploid produces higher secondary metabolites. This research aimed to describe Java cardamom’s phenotypes resulting from colchicine treatment and identify ploidy levels through flow cytometry. This research was conducted from July 2021 to January 2022 at the Leuwikopo Experimental Field, Faculty of Agriculture IPB using a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. The buds were soaked in different concentrations of colchicine (0, 0.05, 0.10, and 0.15%) with a shaker at 100 rpm for 6 hours. Plant height, number of leaves, number of tillers, leaf length and width, pseudostem diameter, number of stomata, greeny leaf score, and ploidy levels are observed. The result showed that 0.10% colchicine caused leaf malformation and chimera. Colchicine treatment could inhibit plant growth. Colchicine treatment produced lower plant height during 16 weeks of observation, fewer leaves at 10-18 WAP, and fewer tillers at 14-18 WAP. However, the colchicine treatment did not produce polyploids.

Excuses, Exemptions, and the Challenges to Social Naturalism
Authors: Heyndels Sybren
Published: September 2022

Pamela Hieronymi has authored a very insightful book 1 that focuses on one of the most influential articles in 20th century philosophy: P.F. Strawson's 'Freedom and Resentment' (1962). Hieronymi's principal objective in Freedom, Resentment, and the Metaphysics of Morals is to reconstruct and evaluate the central argumentative strategy in Strawson's essay. The author's aim is 'to show that it can withstand the objections that are both the most obvious and the most serious, leaving it a worthy contender' (3). In the present commentary, I summarize the main results of Hieronymi's analysis. I engage with the book's main themes, noting in due course certain unclarities and some shortcomings, while emphasizing the many valuable insights it offers.

Churn Customer Management in Retail Industry: A Case Study
Authors: BÖRÜHAN Gülmüş
Published: September 2022

Retail industry is amongst the emerging industries globally, and has attracted increasing attention from practitioners and academicians. The retail environment is changing rapidly and characterized by huge competition from both domestic and foreign companies. Most of the companies produce identical goods and try to sell them at competitive prices. In this regard, finding new customers and make them a loyal one is one of the most difficult things for the retail sector. It costs five times more than keeping the old one (Idris et al., 2012). That is why, the concept of customer retention led to the emergence of a new term in the academic literature that is “Churn Management”. The aim of this study is to analyse the low and high efficient stores of Retailer X that are located in different parts of İzmir by conducting data envelopment analysis, and then examine the reasons of the churn customers in these stores both from customers and store managers perspective. Data was collected from Retailer X to conduct data envelopment analysis to find out low and high efficient stores. In the next stage, semi-structured interviews were conducted with both store managers and customers to be able to compare the perceptions of both sides. As a result of these interviews, the reasons of churn customers are classified into 7 groups that are product and stock level, price, promotions, physical atmosphere, interaction of sales personnel, after sales services and competitors.
Influence of Cylindrical Electrode Configuration on Plasma Parameters in a Sputtering System
Authors: Bard Alaa Khamees , Abbas Qusay Adnan
Published: September 2022

In the present work, the effect of the cylindrical configurations of the sputtering device electrodes on the plasma parameters (Debye length, electron temperature, electron density, plasma frequency) is studied. Also, the effect of the argon gas pressure on the discharge properties is examined with gas pressures of (0.08, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6) Torr. The properties of the plasma are diagnosed by optical emission spectrometry. The spectroscopic method is adopted for examining the atomic spectra of argon emission.  The electron temperature is determined by the Boltzmann method. While, the Stark-widening method was employed for calculating the electron number density. The voltage against current curves of the cylindrical sprayer discharges shows the voltage to be nearly constant with slight increase in current. An increase in pressure causes the cathode cascades to compress and the negative glow to become thinner and more luminous. Plasma properties such as electron temperature and Debye length  decrease with increasing pressure, while electron number density and plasma frequency increase.

Dose-dependent association between inhaled corticosteroid use and risk of obesity and metabolic syndrome in asthma
Authors: Wangberg Hannah , Mortazavi Diba , Kitsen Jessica , Sanni Adepeju , Leibel Sydney , Geng Bob
Published: September 2022

Background: Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are widely prescribed medications. Some studies have reported that ICS may suppress the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and induce systemic effects. Objective: To explore the possibility of a dose-dependent
association between the long-term use of ICS and the risk of obesity and other markers of metabolic syndrome. Methods: A 5-year retrospective two-arm cohort study explored patients on asthma and not on ICS relative to patients with asthma who were on varying doses of ICS
(low, medium, and high) and attributes such as body mass index (BMI) trajectory and prescription of antihypertensive, antidiabetic, and cholesterol-lowering medications. Results: A total of 229 subjects with asthma were in the control cohort, and 215 subjects with asthma
were in the ICS cohort. The ICS cohort was subdivided into individuals on low- (n = 88), medium- (n = 107), or high- (n = 20) dose ICS throughout the 5-year study period. For every 1-year increase in time, the BMI in the high-dose ICS group increased at a rate of 0.25 kg/m2 when
compared with the subjects in the control group after controlling for age and gender. Also, for every 1-year increase in time, the BMI of those on medium-dose ICS increased by 0.06 kg/m2 compared with those in the control group after controlling for age and gender. The subjects
on ICS also had a statistically increased risk of being prescribed antihypertensive, antidiabetic, and cholesterol-lowering medications. Conclusion: ICS use in the subjects with asthma was associated with a dose-dependent risk of increasing BMI trajectories over time and
an increased requirement for antidiabetic and cholesterol-lowering medications. One possible conclusion from this study is that long-term medium- and high-dose ICS have the potential to induce systemic effects.

Authors: Peters Anju T. , Bengtson Lindsay G.S. , Chung Yen , Emmanuel Benjamin , Katial Rohit K. , Kreindler James L. , Blauer-Peterson Cori J. , Davis Greg E.
Published: September 2022

Background: Limited data exist on the clinical and economic burden of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP). Objective: To describe patient characteristics, health-care resource utilization (HCRU), and health-care costs among patients with
CRSwNP with and without comorbid asthma (primary analysis) and with surgical management of nasal polyps (secondary analysis). Methods: This was a retrospective study of patients diagnosed with CRSwNP conducted using administrative claims data from January 1, 2013, through
March 31, 2019. Study outcomes were assessed over a 2-year follow-up. Results were stratified by baseline asthma status (primary analysis) and presented separately for patients with surgically managed CRSwNP (secondary analysis). Results: The primary analysis included 10,999
patients with CRSwNP (2649 with asthma, 8350 without asthma). Patients with versus without asthma had higher medication use, HCRU, and all-cause medical costs (mean ± standard deviation $34,667 ± $42,234 versus $27,122 ± $45,573; p < 0.001)
across the full follow-up period. CRSwNP-related medical costs were significantly higher for patients with versus without asthma in year 2 of follow-up. In the surgical management analysis (n = 4943), most categories of medication use and CRSwNP-related HCRU declined from baseline levels during
follow-up, and CRSwNP-related pharmacy costs in year 2 were less than half of baseline levels. Conclusion: Patients diagnosed with CRSwNP and asthma had a greater burden of illness than those without asthma. Higher CRSwNP-related medical costs in year 2 of follow-up for
patients with asthma may indicate worsening symptoms over time. Among patients with surgically managed CRSwNP, HCRU and costs increased in year 1 of follow-up but decreased below baseline levels in year 2, potentially reflecting improved symptom severity.

Published: September 2022

The article is devoted to the development of methodological tools for tracking the parameters of interaction of production structures in the industrial sector of the economy. A system of monitoring the interaction of production structures is proposed, consisting of 3 main stages and including the object, subject, subjects, methods and means of monitoring the process of interaction of production structures. The principles of building an interaction monitoring system are formulated. The developed interaction monitoring system involves the collection and analysis of information about the parameters of interacting production entities selected for observation. Observation as the most important stage of the system of monitoring the interaction of production structures is proposed to be carried out through the use of such methods of collecting information and processing results as analysis of freely available materials, expert survey, questionnaire, statistical accounting, calculation method. The results of the evaluation of the interaction of production structures determined within the framework of the corresponding stage of the monitoring system are studied as fundamental in the implementation of regulatory measures by the interacting structures in terms of specifying regulatory and technical and technological requirements for its participants.

Published: September 2022

The article is devoted to the study of macroeconomic trends in 2020-2021 in Russia. The relevance of the problem is connected with the need to determine the nature of conjunctural fluctuations of macro indicators. Russia’s GDP in 2020 showed a decrease of 3,1 %, in 2021 it is expected to grow by 4,5 %. The crisis of 2020 was reflected in the disruption of reproductive chains and affected the level of production of certain economic sectors. Economic growth in 2021 had a restorative character. It appeared in the form of a revival of consumer demand and the resumption of production growth in the industries affected by the coronacrisis. The purpose of the study is to analyze the main macroeconomic indicators in the conditions of the coronavirus pandemic, to determine trends and patterns of economic development. The article uses methods of formal and meaningful analysis of statistical information. The present study shows that the conjunctural fluctuations of the economy are based on internal and external factors that stimulate and restrain economic growth. The trigger for the uneven development of the economy was a natural cataclysm in the form of a coronavirus pandemic.

The first part of the article contains the rationale for the methodology. The second part of the article contains its approbation on the example of the company JSC RZD-Logistics. The methodology is based on expert judgment. It is subject to general and special criteria proposed by the author as indicators of the quality of the carrier’s website. The results of the survey of respondents outlined the areas of work to improve the section of the website of the Russian Railways Logistics company in terms of website content, transparency of the algorithm for calculating the cost of services, the possibility of choosing a class of service and getting answers to typical questions of interest to the client. Thanks to the analysis of the comments of the interviewed experts regarding the ratings set, it became possible to study the reasons for their deviation from the maximum values and develop responses to improve the company’s website from the standpoint of customer focus.

Authors:   Saint Petersburg State  University of Economics, Krotova M. V.
Published: September 2022

Based on unpublished sources and emigrant memoirs, the work analyzes the issue of social adaptation to the conditions of emigration in Manchuria by representatives of the «Omsk group», which consisted of former members of the anti-Bolshevik Siberian governments during the Civil War. Based on the theory of social adaptation and the anthropological approach, the article focuses on such aspects of the biography of this category of figures as behavioral strategies, service on the Chinese Eastern Railway, and the choice of citizenship. The study of the destiny of the “Omichi” in Harbin is necessary to present the activities of Russian public and political figures after the Civil War, to understand the problems of emigration in Manchuria and the peculiarities of the existence of the liberal intelligentsia.

Is Justified True Belief Traditional Analysis of Knowledge?
Authors:   National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, Kardash A. M.
Published: September 2022

The article makes a general argument against understanding the concept of knowledge as a justified true belief (JTB) as a traditional. For this purpose, it analyzes the works of researchers who begin question the traditionality of JTB. Their arguments are supplemented and placed in the context of a unified argument against the thesis of traditionality. In addition, attempts to defend the status of JTB by describing this concept as intuitive or umbrella term are criticized.

Stage V Chronic Kidney Disease: A plea for Home Dialysis
Authors: Issad Belkacem , Rostoker Guy
Published: September 2022

Summary

Overall, home dialysis remains underutilized in much of the world. It is only in some parts of the world, such as Hong Kong, Mexico, Thailand, the Netherlands, Finland, Denmark, Iceland, Australia, Canada and New Zealand, that home dialysis is used for more than 20% of the dialysis population. It is observed that in most high- and middle-income countries, home dialysis is generally more economical than center-based dialysis.

According to the results of the REIN 2020 registry, the share of out-of-center dialysis in France has been increasing since 2012. This is mainly due to the increase in the number of patients treated in low medicalized dialysis units (LMDUs) (+7.3% per year between 2012 and 2016, then +3.8% between 2016 and 2020). In contrast, the proportion of patients treated at home has changed little. The percentage of patients on peritoneal dialysis is decreasing (-1.8% per year). Home hemodiaysis is increasing (+10.3% per year) but remains very marginal (1% of dialysis patients). Finally, the advanced age of dialysis patients, which is constantly increasing, cannot be ignored. The proportion of these very old patients has increased from 10.5% in 2012 to 12.5% in 2020. However, during the COVID-19 epidemic, several articles in the literature have demonstrated the protective effect of home dialysis in all its forms (peritoneal dialysis and home hemodialysis) against SARS-CoV-2 infection.

We report on the status of home dialysis in France, its advantages and proposals for its development, as presented at the Home Dialysis Day (DIADOM) of University Seminars of Nephrology (SUN) in Paris in January 2022.
Equipement et traitement d’eau pour la gestion quotidienne de l’hémodialyse à domicile
Authors: SERRATO Tomas
Published: September 2022

L’hémodialyse à domicile doit rester une technique parmi tant d’autres pour traiter l’insuffisance rénale terminale. Pour cela tout doit être mis en place pour que les patients puissent avoir le choix, aidés par leur équipe soignante. La gestion de l’accessibilité à un traitement d’eau à domicile reste encore de nos jours difficile malgré les progrès notables lors des dernières décennies. Le développement de l’HDQD sans avoir à installer un traitement d’eau au domicile des patients est un progrès notable qui a donné un élan nécessaire au développement du traitement du patient au domicile. Les défis restent grands malgré tout, notamment pour le développement de la dialyse à sorbants qui devrait revoir le jour avec l’aide des nanotechnologies  cela aidera à augmenter le nombre de patients, mais aussi à avoir une attitude éco responsable, en diminuant les quantités d’eau utilisées et les déchets générés par ce type de traitement.
Evolution de la dialyse péritonéale en France depuis 2018 et durant les « années COVID » Rapport RDPLF
Authors: Verger Christian , Fabre Emmanuel
Published: September 2022

La quasi-totalité (99 %) des patients traités par dialyse péritonéale en France est enregistrée dans la base de données du RDPLF. En dehors de toute analyse statistique visant à interpréter les chiffres, ce travail est un rapport des données brutes observées dans la population d’insuffisants rénaux Stade V traités par dialyse péritonéale depuis le début de l’épidémie COVID-19 et dans les deux années qui ont précédé. Depuis le début de l’épidémie ces données semblent montrer une diminution de l’incidence des traitements par dialyse péritonéale et une augmentation des transferts en hémodialyse en centre. On observe par ailleurs une diminution des inscriptions sur liste d’attente de transplantation et une diminution du nombre de transplantations. Si la baisse temporaire de l’activité de transplantation peut s’expliquer par la désorganisation qu’a provoquée l’épidémie dans les hôpitaux, une baisse des indications de mise à domicile mérite probablement une réflexion plus approfondie sur ses causes, d’autant plus que ce résultat est en opposition avec les tendances d’autres pays. Ce rapport a pour but d’encourager des études plus précises sur l’intérêt de la dialyse à domicile en période épidémique.
Strain-Release Controlled [4+2+1] Reaction of Cyclopropyl-Capped Diene-Ynes/Diene-enes and CO Catalyzed by Rhodium

ABSTRACT: Achieving transition metal-catalyzed reactions of diene-enes/diene-ynes and carbon monoxide (CO) to deliver [4+2+1] cycloadducts, rather than the kinetically favored [2+2+1] products, is challenging. Here, we report that this can be solved by adding a cyclopropyl (CP) cap to the diene moiety of the original substrates. The resulting cyclopropyl-capped diene-ynes/diene-enes can react with CO under Rh catalysis to give [4+2+1] cycloadducts exclusively without forming [2+2+1] products. This reaction has a broad scope and can be used to synthesize useful 5/7 bicycles with CP moiety. Of the same importance, the CP moiety in the [4+2+1] cycloadducts can act as the intermediate group for further transformations so that other challenging bicyclic 5/7 and tricyclic 5/7/5 and 5/7/6, 5/7/7 skeletons, which are widely found in natural products, can be obtained. The mechanism of this [4+2+1] reaction has been investigated by quantum chemistry calculations, and the role of the CP group in avoiding the possible side reaction of [2+2+1] reaction have been identified, showing that the [4+2+1] is controlled by releasing the ring strain in the methlenecyclopropyl (MCP) group (about 7 kcal/mol) in the CP-capped dienes.

The future of materials science is borderless, cooperative, and distributed across the globe. This necessitates flexible, reconfigurable software defined research workflows, which we herein demonstrate by integrating multiple disciplines and modalities. Our brokering approach to research orchestration exposes entire laboratories in a cooperative multi-tenancy platform that is asynchronous, modular, and resilient. To the best of our knowledge, this constitutes the first international materials acceleration platform (MAP) which is herein demonstrated through a battery electrolyte workflow that ran in five countries over two weeks. We discuss the lessons learned from multi-tenancy and fault tolerance and chart a way to a universal battery MAP with fully ontology- based schemas and cost-aware orchestration.
