Languaging, Corrective Feedback, and Writing Accuracy among Low Proficiency L2 Learners
Authors: Abd Rahim Sabariah , Jaganathan Paramaswari
Published: May 2022

Low proficiency L2 learners make frequent grammatical errors and apply inappropriate English language use and writing conventions despite learning the language for years. To reduce the grammatical and non-grammatical errors in the low proficiency L2 learners’ writing, teachers provide Written Corrective Feedback (WCF). However, a strong claim on WCF's adverse effects on L2 learners’ language development has prompted mixed responses on the WCF’s effectiveness. Numerous studies on WCF's effectiveness were conducted, and the findings showed inconclusive results. The present study aims to examine the ‘Written Languaging’ (WL) effect of Written Corrective Feedback (WCF) on low proficiency L2 learners’ writing accuracy. WL is a mediational tool used to enhance the WCF’s effectiveness. The study was conducted on 47 low proficiency L2 university students for five weeks to elicit WL of WCF's effects on low proficiency L2 learners’ writing accuracy, where a multiple-case research approach was used to collect and analyze the data of the study. An error ratio was applied to measure the overall accuracy of writing. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to determine whether WL's provision on the WCF affects the writing accuracy of the low proficiency L2 learners' new writing text. The finding shows that WL's provision on the WCF did not facilitate the low proficiency of L2 learners' writing accuracy because the L2 learners' writing accuracy could improve only with teachers' WCF. The study is significant to the pedagogical teaching of writing development for lower proficiency L2 learners, particularly in applying the mediational tool in the provision and processing of WCF and the complementary pedagogical strategy to WCF.

Authors: Akihary Wilma , Apituley Patresia S.
Published: May 2022

The quantum learning model is a combination of various interactions that occur during the learning process. This learning model can be combined with the Assoziogram technique or also with audio-visual media as learning media. This research aims at investigating the implementation of a digital media-based quantum learning model with the Assoziogramm technique/concept map to improve students’ German writing, critical thinking, and learning motivation. This research uses one group pre-test and post-test experimental research design with a total sample of 20 students. The research data were collected using test and non-test (questionnaire) instruments. The research data were analysed using descriptive statistics and paired t-tests. The study results show an increase in the ability to write German, critical thinking, and learning motivation after the implementation of the digital media-based quantum learning model with the Assoziogramm technique. This study contributed to showing how variations in learning are crucial in providing a more engaging learning climate than the conventional learning done by lecturers.
Language Kinship as Regional Conflict Resolution in West Nusa Tenggara: Comparative Historical Linguistic Study
Authors: Setiawan Irma
Published: May 2022

West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) has two kinds of related ethnic languages, namely the Sasak language (BS) and the Samawa language (BSw). As related languages, the two ethnic groups often come into conflict. Conflicts are generally caused by the lack of a good and effective communication process. This study investigates the phenomenon of linguistic kinship and describes various phonemic features as a solution for resolving regional conflicts. The research uses Linguistics Historical Comparative (LHC) Theory with synchronic studies. The research method used phenomenological principles with qualitative descriptive research. The object of study is BS and BSw. The research instrument used Swadesh vocabulary and Lexicostatistical parameters. Data collection was conducted by documentation. Data analysis applied qualitative description technique includes reduction, presentation, and verification. The results showed that 68 words were the same, 52 words were similar, and 87 were different. Word relations based on parallel and serial structures of kin with contradictory meanings, such as: /apa/ (a~ə/-#), /anjing/ (c~s/#V-V#), /baru/ (a~ǝ/#C-C# and Ø~?/-#), /benar/ (k~t/#-), /benih/ (ɛ~i/#C-C#), and /bunuh/ (Ø~bǝ/#- and ?~ Ø/-#). In syllables and phonemes, BS and BSw have variants /e/ > [ǝ],[e],[Ɛ]. The percentage of relatives, 58%, is of language family status, both genetically and proto-Austronesian. The period of separation of the two languages is 1292 years, to be precise, occurred in 730 AD. The contribution of similarity is phonemically observed through three dimensions of inter-ethnic conflict resolution: signification, domination, and legitimacy. The research findings are in the form of formulations/concepts of solutions for resolving regional conflicts through the kinship of phonemic features of the Austronesian language, the traditions/culture and beliefs of speakers, and the social system of society. It is a reference for preventing regional conflicts in NTB in particular and Indonesia in general.
VARIATION IN FUNCTIONS OF NARRATIVE IN MILITARY DISCOURSE
Authors: Pelepeichenko Liudmyla , Podufalova Tetiana , Revutska Svitlana
Published: May 2022

This article identifies kinds of variation in functions of narrative in military discourse and conditions that determine their realization. It proves that the function of narrative proper is observed only in certain types of military didactic discourse, when the speaker’s goal is confined to providing accurate information (teaching how to use weapons, self-defense techniques, etc.). In other types of didactic discourse, the narrative function is supplemented with the functions of educating and affirming society’s value priorities. The types of variation are determined by discourse conditions: the social context of communication and the speaker’s illocutionary goal. In instructive speeches, the function of conveying information can be supplemented with that of affirming society’s value priorities. In informative speeches, the narrative function is often accompanied by the functions of evaluation and refutation of rumors, myths, or someone’s statements. Special occasion speeches are characterized by the rearrangement of functions: the narrative function becomes supplementary, and the functions of evaluation, worldview formation, and value priorities affirmation become the main ones. Inspirational speeches are most often built on the syncretism of narrative and persuasion. In all speech genres of military discourse, the function of a grand narrative is the formation of military personnel’s positive image.
Artists and Autonomy: Written Instructions and Preliminary Drawings for the Illuminator in the Huntington Library Legenda aurea (HM 3027)
Authors: Easton Martha
Published: May 2022

This essay will examine the presence of written instructions and preliminary drawings for the illuminator visible in the Huntington Library Legenda aurea, the oldest surviving extensively illuminated manuscript of the text in Latin. It is an excellent example of the collaborative nature of manuscript production in thirteenth-century Paris. What is particularly interesting is that there are a number of occasions where the miniatures deviate from the text, from the written instructions to the illuminator, and even from the preliminary sketches, which suggest that the artist had some agency in determining the iconography and appearance of the final images. I will discuss these deviations and the broader implications of some of these choices in terms of manuscript production, the status of the artist, and the ideological implications of some of the imagery.

The Implicating Gaze in Bronzino’s Cosimo I de’ Medici as Orpheus and the Intellectual Culture of the Accademia Fiorentina
Authors: Zappella Christine
Published: May 2022

The iconography of Bronzino’s sexually explicit Portrait of Cosimo I de’ Medici as Orpheus has long challenged scholars, especially since scientific analysis revealed below the portrait’s surface a fully conceived underpainting depicting a different moment from the story of Orpheus. First, I suggest that this change was associated with Cosimo’s military victory at the battle of Montemurlo, where the duke’s army finally extirpated his political opposition. Second, I contend that Cosimo’s nudity should be interpreted within the milieu of the Accademia Fiorentina, where the painting’s eroticism suggested to court literati that the duke had achieved the highest state of Platonic spirituality, known as “erotic furor.” Finally, I argue that although Bronzino’s Cosimo as Orpheus seemingly aggrandizes the duke, it is a polysemous image that former Republican, anti-ducal literati could likewise interpret as a scathing critique of the young ruler and an embodiment of the hope that political demise was close at hand.

Stepping-stones and Mediators of Pandemic Expansion—A Context for Humans as Ecological Super-spreaders
Authors: Hoberg Eric , Boeger Walter , Brooks Daniel , Trivellone Valeria , Agosta Salvatore
Published: May 2022

Humans represent ecological super-spreaders in the dissemination and introduction of pathogens. These processes, consistent with the dynamics of the Stockholm paradigm, are exemplified in the origin and globalized distributions of SARS-CoV-2 since initial recognition in central Asia during 2019 and 2020. SARS-like viruses are not widespread in mammals but appear widespread in chiropterans. Bats are isolated ecologically from most other assemblages of mammals in terrestrial systems. Humans may be the stepping-stone hosts for broad global dissemination and wider infection (given the opportunity) among diverse assemblages of mammals in which host and viral capacity are compatible. Human globalization mediated insertion in global ecosystems along primary and secondary pathways initially with localized to regional circulation across continents. Origins and persistence of cycles involving variants and viral transmission among other mammals and the potential for secondary exposure (retrocolonization) of people occurs on multidirectional pathways. Humans were responsible for the initial breakdown in ecological isolation of the virus that facilitated colonization events from chiropterans to other mammals. In the absence of these human drivers, environmental or ecological interfaces (boundary zones among habitats) limiting the distribution of SARS-CoV-2 are unlikely to have been crossed, leaving a diverse assemblage of SARS-like viruses (Sarbecovirus) remaining relatively hidden and isolated in southeast Asia.

Authors: Gatphoh Banylla Felicity Dkhar , Naval Aggarwal Natasha , Kumar S. Madan , Kumar M. Vijay , Revanasiddappa B. C.
Published: May 2022

The compounds 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives (1-8) were synthesized by the cyclization of 4-hydroxy benzhydrazide (1) with various substituted aroma-tic aldehydes (2) using FeCl3 as catalyst and methanol as a solvent medium. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were assigned based on FT-IR, 1H-NMR, and mass spectral data. In vivo antidepressant activity was performed by tail suspension test and forced swimming test models. Using the Schrodinger Maestro, the in silico analysis was performed and docked to the glycogen synthase kinase 3β binding site (PDB: 3GB2). Compounds 8 [4,4'-(1,3,4-oxadiazole-2,5-diyl)diphenol] and 3 [3-(5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl) phenol] showed both potent inhibitory activity against GSK-3β with a docking score of -7.800 kcal/mol as well as good antidepressant activity in both tail suspension and forced swimming tests models. The synthesized derivatives showed good antidepressive potential.
A 20-Gene Expression Diagnostic Signature of Bovine Respiratory Disease in Cattle
Authors: Giwa A. , Giwa R.
Published: May 2022

Bovine Respiratory Disease (BRD) is a prevalent disease in cattle rearing systems globally with significant health and economic costs. Current diagnostic methods of BRD rely on subjective visual signs and physical examination, which are suboptimal. This study, therefore, aims to find a blood-based gene expression signature for the diagnostic identification of BRD in cattle. The Gene Expression Omnibus dataset, GSE152959, was downloaded and used for analysis. The analyses performed included differential gene expression (DGE), clustering and machine learning prediction. Ninety genes were differentially expressed in BRD samples compared to controls. The GSE150706 dataset was used as the test dataset for machine learning prediction. The DEGs identified clustered the GSE150706 samples with good accuracy. For the machine learning prediction, 92 % of correctly predicted samples were obtained using twenty genes as features. Therefore, the identified 20-gene expression signature has BRD diagnostic utility in cattle. This signature could potentially be used to develop standardized and reliable diagnostic tests of Bovine Respiratory Disease in cattle. Improved diagnostics will lead to early detection and treatment, reducing the health and economic costs associated with the disease. Further validation in larger cattle cohorts is required.
Total Phenolic Contents and Anti-lipooxygenase Activity of the Methanolic Extracts from Durio zibethinus Murr
Authors: Adeniyi S. , Olatunji G. A. , Oguntoye O. S.
Published: May 2022

Durio zibethinus parts (leaves, stem bark, and root) used to treat malaria fever, vermifuge, diabetes, jaundice, inflammation, and oxidative stress management prompted the investigation of their total phenolic contents and anti-lipooxygenase activities. The total phenolic concentration of D. zibethinus parts was determined spectrophotometrically after collection and extraction. The anti-inflammatory activity was estimated using a lipooxygenase assay. Total phenolic content measured in gallic acid equivalent (GAE) gave the highest levels of 6.88 ± 1.54, 23.32 ± 1.73, and 29.00 ± 3.43 mg GAE/g sample weight leaves stem bark, and root extracts, respectively. The plant extracts showed lower anti- lipooxygenase activity in leaves (IC50 µg/mL- 1.464) and stem bark (IC50 µg/mL- 1.203), but had significant activity in root (IC50 µg/mL- 1.400) compared to standard indomethacin (IC50 µg/mL- 1.660). The plant extract's declining order of anti- lipooxygenase activity follows the same trend with the phenolic contents, indicating that the extract's magnitude of anti- lipooxygenase activity is comparable with the quantity of phenolic compounds present in the extracts. Hence, the D. zibethinus extracts are a potential candidate for a plant-derived anti-inflammatory agent.

Published: May 2022

Background & objectives: Scrub typhus is a mite borne rickettsial illness, caused by the bacterium Orientia tsutsugamushi, which is endemic to Asia pacific region. Due to wide spectrum of non-specific manifestations and inaccessibility of accurate diagnostic tools, it remains underdiagnosed in many countries of Southeast Asia including Bangladesh, resulting in severe life-threatening complications. Therefore, this study was aimed to diagnose scrub typhus through molecular detection of O. tsutsugamushi by ‘Nested Polymerase Chain Reaction (N-PCR)’ among febrile patients in Mymensingh, Bangladesh & to study the socio-demographic as well as clinical characteristics of the diagnosed cases.
Methods: It was a cross-sectional type of study, conducted at department of Microbiology, Mymensingh Medical College between March 2018 and February 2019. Blood samples were taken from 453 febrile patients of suspected rickettsial illness, referred from both inpatient and outpatient facility of Department of Medicine and Department of Pediatrics, Mymensingh Medical college Hospital (MMCH). Then DNA was extracted from the whole blood, following Phenol-Chloroform extraction & ethanol precipitation method. Finally, N-PCR was performed on extracted DNA, targeting 47Kda antigen gene, to detect O. tsutsugamushi.
Results: Out of 453, this study documented [78 (17.21%)] PCR positive scrub typhus cases, among which majority [42 (53.84%)] were female & maximum [26 (33.33%)] were in age group >15-30 years. Higher number of PCR positive patients [51 (65.39%)] were from rural areas. Among the scrub typhus cases, myalgia (48; 61.53%) was the most common manifestation, followed by headache (44; 56.41%) and cough (44; 56.41%). Eschar was present only in 14 (17.94%) cases and 8 (10.25 %) patients had skin rashes. Leukocytosis and leukopenia were documented in 13 (16.66%) and 5 (6.41%) cases respectively. Decreased Hb% was recorded in 14(17.9%) & 16 (20.5%) cases had thrombocytopenia.
Conclusion: This study recorded a high number of scrub typhus cases in Mymensingh region with non-specific febrile manifestations, hindering early & accurate clinical diagnosis. Complications like - renal & hepatic impairment, CNS involvement, ARDS as well as hematological abnormalities were documented also. So, scrub typhus should be considered in the differential diagnosis of undifferentiated febrile illness in Bangladesh. Further molecular studies on scrub typhus might be done throughout the countries to create awareness among physicians & to evaluate actual disease burden.

English has Always Been Present: Transnational Youths Illustrating Language Dynamics in Zacatecas, Mexico
Authors: Núñez Asomoza Alejandra
Published: May 2022

This paper aims at describing the impact of transnationalism on the reconfiguration of linguisticrepertoires of transnational people and how this is manifested in their discursive practices, their residing communities, and the geographical places they connect. Narratives from three participants are analyzed from the perspective of translanguaging theory (Wei, 2011, 2018b), which allows to capture moments of language creativity and criticality that are then linked to the transnational dimension of the participants, exemplifying how these elements interact with each other. Through participants’ flexible languaging and metalinguistic commentaries manifested in various domains of their daily lives, their creativity and criticality emerge as natural and significant features of their routine and bilingualism.

In the present study individual milk samples were collected from 80 Garganica goats and the population was genotyped for CSN1S1. Seven different alleles were observed with the A allele found as predominant, followed by the F and B allele, and 14 different genotypes were observed. A proteomic approach was used to classify the individual milk on the basis of protein abundance: four levels of αs1-casein (CN) expression were identified as high (HAS-1), intermediate (IAS-1), low (LAS-1), and null (NAS-1). The present paper aimed to investigate the influence of the level of expression of αs1-casein fraction in milk on proteolytic activities, chemical composition, and renneting properties of individual Garganica goat milk. Results from the present study evidenced that the level of expression of αs1-casein fraction in Garganica goat milk affected chemical composition, curd firmness, and indigenous proteolytic enzymes. In particular, fat, protein, and casein content were higher in HAS-1 and IAS-1 compared to LAS-1 and NAS-1. The SCC decreased passing from the HAS-1 to the NAS-1 and the curd firmness displayed the highest value in HAS-1. The activity of plasmin (PL) was higher in HAS-1 and IAS-1 groups compared to the LAS-1 and NAS-1; whereas, PL plasminogen-derived (PG) activity was the highest in NAS-1 group. On the contrary, the activity of elastase was the highest in LAS-1, intermediate in the IAS-1 group, and the lowest in HAS-1 and NAS-1 groups. Present data demonstrated that the level of synthesis of αs1-CN reflects the efficiency of the mammary gland in the activation of the cellular mechanisms and influences the proteolytic activity in milk, especially the PL-PG system.

Heart and kidney diseases cause high morbidity and mortality. Heart and kidneys have vital functions in the human body and, interestingly, reciprocally influence each other’s behavior: pathological changes in one organ can damage the other. Cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) is a group of disorders in which there is combined dysfunction of both heart and kidney, but its underlying biological mechanisms are not fully understood. This is because complex, multifactorial, and dynamic mechanisms are likely involved. Effective treatments are currently unavailable, but this may be resolved if more was known about how the disease develops and progresses. To date, CRS has actually only been modeled in mice and rats in vivo. Even though these models can capture cardiorenal interaction, they are difficult to manipulate and control. Moreover, interspecies differences may limit extrapolation to patients. The questions we address here are what would it take to model CRS in vitro and how far are we? There are already multiple independent in vitro (human) models of heart and kidney, but none have so far captured their dynamic organ-organ crosstalk. Advanced in vitro human models can provide an insight in disease mechanisms and offer a platform for therapy development. CRS represents an exemplary disease illustrating the need to develop more complex models to study organ-organ interaction in-a-dish. Human induced pluripotent stem cells in combination with microfluidic chips are one powerful tool with potential to recapitulate the characteristics of CRS in vitro. In this review, we provide an overview of the existing in vivo and in vitro models to study CRS, their limitations and new perspectives on how heart-kidney physiological and pathological interaction could be investigated in vitro for future applications.

Dam construction often changes downstream fluvial processes by reducing sediment supply. Taking Tiaoguan reach and Laijiapu reach of the lower Jingjiang Reach downstream of the Three Gorges Project as examples, three-dimensional flow velocity, sediment, and bed elevation were observed in the two bends for investigating the impact of flow structure and sediment transport of different discharges on sharp bend morphology. Results indicated that the flow structure and sediment transport process in curved channels depended upon the flow stages, which affected the patterns of erosion and deposition along the point bars and concave banks. Flow separation and development of secondary flow were depended on the shapes of point bars and flow depths nearby, and the strength of secondary flow increased with flow discharge. The high flow discharges, which had high sediment carrying capacity and stream power, provided the main driving force for erosion on upstream point bar, thus the type and duration of floods were crucial factors in the morphological evolution of meandering bends. The reduction of sediment supply should be responsible for erosion on the point bars, causing the flow to migrate toward the convex banks. In meandering rivers with reduced sediment supply, retreats (push inward) of inner (convex) banks dominated advances (pull inward) of outer (concave) banks. In addition, the formation and development of concave-bank bars might relate particularly to meander curvature. This study is expected to constitute a reference for bank protection and river management in meandering bends downstream of reservoirs.
