Anemia aplásica adquirida severa asociada a hepatitis autoinmune seronegativa. Reporte de un caso en pediatría
Authors: Castro Dager Ángel , Mendoza Borja Karolay Dayana , Manjarres Figueredo Paola Andrea
Published: July 2024

Antecedentes: La anemia aplásica es una condición potencialmente mortal que hace referencia a una médula ósea hipocelular o acelular asociada a pancitopenia, de causa genética o adquirida. La hepatitis autoinmune seronegativa es una causa rara relacionada con aplasia medular que es reconocido por un aumento marcado de las enzimas hepáticas; su tratamiento está basado en esteroides, inmunomoduladores y el trasplante de células hematopoyéticas. Reporte de caso: Masculino de 12 años de edad que cursó con hematomas y palidez cutánea de un mes de evolución, en los paraclínicos iniciales se encontró pancitopenia y aumento severo de las transaminasas. Se le realizó biopsia de médula ósea que reportó hipocelularidad, se diagnosticó aplasia medular e inició seguimiento en unidad de trasplante. Recibió tratamiento con prednisona y azatioprina, con resolución de la hepatitis, y posteriormente recibió trasplante de médula ósea con donante alogénico relacionado idéntico que resultó exitoso. Conclusiones: La hepatitis autoinmune seronegativa es una causa muy rara de anemia aplásica que debe ser considerada en los diagnósticos diferenciales de un paciente con pancitopenia y alteración de la función hepática. El manejo oportuno del daño hepático con la terapia inmunomoduladora y la atención en unidad de trasplante puede mejorar los resultados clínicos y la sobrevida.

La intususcepción intestinal es una de las complicaciones principales del divertículo de Meckel. La intususcepción intestinal se presenta clínicamente de forma clásica con la triada de Ombredanne, conformada por dolor abdominal intermitente, heces con apariencia de jalea de grosella y presencia de masa abdominal palpable. El tratamiento abarca desde las técnicas de reducción mediante enema aéreo hasta la reducción quirúrgica. Reporte de caso: se presenta un paciente de sexo masculino de 4 años, con invaginación íleo-ileal secundaria a un divertículo de Meckel. El paciente fue intervenido quirúrgicamente de urgencia por diagnóstico de obstrucción intestinal secundaria a invaginación intestinal. Conclusiones: se requiere una atención médica rápida y, a menudo, intervención quirúrgica. La conciencia, el diagnóstico preciso y el tratamiento oportuno son clave para un buen resultado en los pacientes afectados.
The Harmonizing Power of Poetic Language, Between Mimesis and Catharsis
Authors: Stănciulescu Traian D. , Nilaya Shanti
Published: July 2024

Rationally, to clarify the genesis and the resonant power of the (poetic) language implies two pluridisciplinary perspectives, namely: a) the contributions of semiotics, phonology and linguistic, neuro-physiology and biophotonics, in order to justify the mimetic dimension of the words by its sonorous signifier; b) the contributions of psycho-logics and psycho-analysis connected to literary hermeneutics, able to explain how the mental images and thoughts are becoming emotional states by the "lighted" signified of the words. The both perspectives are (auto)referentially connected – for a more explicit illustration – to the poetic / metaphoric language used by the authors. In this integrative way, the paper is complex, acknowledging the assumption of sufi thinkers that our words are "sounds full of light".
Are Salafis and Pentecostals the Same? How Orthodox and Sufi Mediation Practices Shape Responses to Reformism in Gondar, Ethiopia
Authors: Dulin John
Published: July 2024

Many Orthodox Christians and Sufi Muslims in Ethiopia put Salafis and Pentecostals in the same category. Because both denounce the intercessory powers of otherworldly figures, like saints and awaliyya, some claim Salafis are “like Pentes.” Some refer to the similar mediation practices of Sufis and Orthodox Christians to paint Pentecostals/Salafis as other, as foreign. This article explores how these discursive parallels play out in practical interactions in Gondar, Ethiopia, a historical center of Ethiopian Orthodoxy with a sizable Muslim minority. In some ways, Orthodox-Pentecostal relations mirror Sufi-Salafi relations because of similarities in Orthodox and Sufi mediation practices. However, the Sufi–Salafi boundary is relatively porous due to the detachability of Sufi practices of intercession from more encompassing practices like salat and Ramadan. Pentecostal–Orthodox boundaries are more robust in part because the intercession of Saints infuses all levels of Orthodox practice. This boundary becomes particularly sharp in the context of funerals.
Answering the Protestant Challenge: Orthodox Christianity as Counterreformation in Southern Ethiopia
Authors: Sommerschuh Julian
Published: July 2024

What makes Ethiopian Orthodox Christianity attractive to southern Ethiopians? Aari in the South Ethiopia Regional State formerly rejected Orthodoxy as the religion of their northern Ethiopian conquerors. Attempts made under the empire to convert Aari remained without lasting success. In recent years, however, Orthodoxy has gained followers among conservative Aari. I explain Orthodoxy's attractiveness in the light of the rapid post-1991 growth of Protestantism and the corresponding decline of the indigenous Aari religion. Contrary to the derelict institutions of the indigenous religion, the Orthodox Church is felt to have spiritual authority and to afford a viable ritual community. And while conservative Aari reject Protestantism as excessively egalitarian, individualist, and puritan, Orthodoxy resonates with them for placing value on hierarchy, mediation, and feasting. For conservative Aari, Orthodoxy thus offers an answer to the Protestant challenge. Becoming Orthodox allows conservatives to defend and rearticulate moral and spiritual values which have long guided them, while also accessing the prestige of a religion Aari associate with northern elites. This shows that understanding the attractiveness of Orthodoxy in contemporary southern Ethiopia requires appreciating the imperial history of south–north relations and the post-1991 history of religious liberalization.
The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahido Church in the Context of State Reformation
Authors: Feyissa Dereje , Zeleke Meron
Published: July 2024

There was a historical and political intimacy between the Ethiopian Tewahido Orthodox Church (EOTC) and the Ethiopian state until their relationship was profoundly modified after the 1974 Revolution and the secular rupture connected to that. This was followed by political reforms by successive governments, which have had a leveling effect on the religious field. The country's religious minorities—Muslims and Protestants—have been engaged in recognition politics progressively attaining rights on par with the EOTC. This rebalancing is perceived to have come at the expense of the EOTC—from the decoupling of the Ethiopian nation from Orthodoxy, a continuous decline in the number of members of the Church, to a feeling of being persecuted and the siege mentality connected to that. While responding to these external challenges, the EOTC has also experienced internal rifts that pose existential threats not only to maintain its historically constituted hegemony but also continue to exist as a united church. This contribution critically appraises the political journey of the EOTC in the long longue durée and with a relational lens, i.e., from its trajectory from being at the center of the Ethiopian state and an established religion, to the various external and internal challenges the Church has faced in the context of the process of state reformation and how it has sought to regain and maintain its hegemony, or at least negotiate its decline through the deployment of various strategies.
Researcher developers: an emerging third space profession
Authors: Freeman Richard P.J , Price Anna M
Published: July 2024

Following the publication of Sir Gareth Roberts’s SET for Success in 2002, the UK government invested millions of pounds in universities to improve the readiness of doctoral researchers to work in universities and beyond. Many universities hired what have become known as researcher developers to design and deliver suitable programmes to develop generic and transferable skills. In 2008, Celia Whitchurch identified the concept of third space as an emergent territory between academic and professional domains, which is colonised primarily by less bounded forms of professional. This article demonstrates how the researcher developer is an example of a third space profession in higher education, and specifically an example of what Kehm calls new ‘higher education professionals’, being highly qualified professionals who are not primarily active in research and teaching themselves, but who are generalists and experts – rather than specialists – working within higher education institutions.
Enduring Enmity
Authors: Buchstein Hubertus
Published: July 2024

To date, the relationship between Otto Kirchheimer and Carl Schmitt has invariably been described as friendly, despite their political differences. Kirchheimer has even been attributed the role of the godfather of today's left-Schmittianism. With reference to previously unknown archival materials, conversations with personal contacts, and through a new reading of the theoretical works of both authors, including an analysis of the Nazi vocabulary used by Schmitt, Hubertus Buchstein exposes this view as a politically motivated legend. Buchstein claims that the best way to characterize their relationship from their first meeting in Bonn in 1926 up until Kirchheimer's death in 1965 is as enduring enmity - in a political, a theoretical, and even a personal sense.

Physiotherapeutische Tele-Intervention - Machbarkeit und funktionelle Veränderungen bei Schlaganfallbetroffenen
Authors: Pfingsten Andrea , Schedel Valentin , Michel Natalie
Published: July 2024

Pfingsten, Schedel und Michel widmen sich in diesem Beitrag der Frage nach der Machbarkeit und Wirkung teletherapeutischer Physiotherapie bei Schlaganfallpatienten. Diese prospektive, nicht kontrollierte Interventionsstudie nutzt Telepräsenzroboter und app-basiertes Training, um die Intensität und Frequenz der Therapie zu erhöhen und funktionelle Verbesserungen der betroffenen oberen Extremität zu fördern. Ein Mixed-Methods-Design mit quantitativen Assessments und qualitativen Interviews zeigt, dass teletherapeutische Maßnahmen die Rehabilitation unterstützen, Versorgungslücken schließen und die Selbstständigkeit der Patienten fördern können. Die interdisziplinäre Tele-Therapie mit regelmäßigen, intensiven Übungen führt zu signifikanten Verbesserungen der Lebensqualität, der Teilhabe und Partizipation, der Alltagsfähigkeit und der Funktion der oberen Extremität.
Logopädische Teletherapie im häuslichen Umfeld von Schlaganfallbetroffenen
Authors: Greiner Nina , Lauer Norina
Published: July 2024

Dargestellt wird die logopädische Teilstudie des Projekts DeinHaus 4.0 Oberpfalz. Im Rahmen eines Mixed-Methods-Ansatzes wurden Umsetzbarkeit und Nutzen einer logopädischer Teletherapie untersucht, die über zwei verschiedene Telepräsenzroboter in der häuslichen Umgebung von Schlaganfallbetroffenen durchgeführt wurde. An der Studie im Prätest-Posttest-Design ohne Kontrollgruppe nahmen 16 Proband*innen teil, davon 11 mit Aphasie und 5 mit Dysarthrie. Während des 24-wöchigen Interventionszeitraumes wurde neben einer Video-Einzeltherapie mit begleitendem supervidierten App-Eigentraining eine interdisziplinäre Gruppenintervention mit logopädischen und physiotherapeutischen Inhalten erprobt und evaluiert. Unabhängig vom Robotersystem erwies sich die hybride Intervention sowohl im Einzel- als auch im interdisziplinären Gruppensetting als gut umsetzbar und war mit positiven Effekten auf Lebensqualität und Kommunikationsfähigkeit sowie mit einer hohen Zufriedenheit der Teilnehmenden verbunden. Bei Personen mit Aphasie verbesserte sich die Kommunikationsfähigkeit auf Gruppenebene, bei den Proband*innen mit Dysarthrie konnte jedoch nur teilweise eine Reduktion der sprechmotorischen Einschränkungen beobachtet werden. Während die Proband*innen an den Videoterminen bevorzugt über die Telepräsenzroboter teilnahmen, zeichnete sich eine Präferenz für die Verwendung der Tablets zum App-Eigentraining ab. Die Ergebnisse unterstützen Befunde zum Potenzial teletherapeutischer Versorgungsformen, die zu Versorgungskontinuität und Therapiefrequenzerhöhung beitragen können.
The Making of Modern Subjects
Authors: Gang Sung Un
Published: July 2024

In the early 20th century, Korean women began to manifest themselves in the public sphere. Sung Un Gang explores how the women's gaze was reimagined in public discourse as they attended plays and movies, delving into the complex negotiation process surrounding women's public presence. In this first extensive study of Korean female spectators in the colonial era, he analyzes newspapers, magazines, fictions, and images, arguing that public discourse aimed to mold them into a male-driven and top-down modernization project. Through a meticulous examination of historical sources, this study reconceptualizes colonial Korean female spectators as diverse, active agents with their own politics who played a crucial role in shaping colonial publicness.
Negative Dialektik und Erkenntnispraxis
Authors: Zeller Haziran
Published: July 2024

Welche Kriterien können wir angeben, um Täuschung von Wahrheit zu unterscheiden? Während die klassische Erkenntnistheorie von einem abstrakten, nur denkenden Erkenntnissubjekt ausgeht, zweifelt die kritische Theorie diese Prämisse an: Das Subjekt der Erkenntnis muss auch konkretisiert und historisch hergeleitet werden. Es ist nur ein denkendes, wenn es zugleich ein fühlendes und historisches Subjekt ist. Haziran Zeller verfolgt diesen Gedanken im Anschluss an Hegel, Marx und Adorno. Philosophie, die zur Wahrheit gelangen möchte, sollte demnach statt Erkenntnistheorie lieber Erkenntnispraxis betreiben. Dazu muss sie sich materialistisch formulieren sowie in der Philosophiegeschichte verorten - und die eigene literarische Praxis reflektieren.
How to (mis)use VR
Authors: Haverich Katharina , Kuster Lucas
Published: July 2024

Im Beitrag »How to (mis)use VR« (Virtual Reality) dokumentiert die Künstlerin Anika Krbetschek ihre Gedanken über ein ungewöhnliches Potenzial virtueller Realitäten. Grundlage dafür bildet die audiovisuelle Werk »04:40« der Autorin, in der sie die VR-Brille bewusst »falsch« nutzte. Hierbei ging es darum, Wahrnehmungszustände bei Rezipient*innen zu erzeugen, die einem Zustand ähneln, der in der Psychologie als »Dissoziation« beschrieben wird. Das Essay diskutiert anhand dieser Arbeit das Zusammenspiel von Technologie, Wahrnehmung und sozialer Gerechtigkeit und bietet Einblicke in die transformatorischen Potenziale von VR als immersives Werkzeug für künstlerische Selbstermächtigung und Entstigmatisierung. Dabei wird ein »dissoziativer Charakter« nicht nur im Effekt, sondern auch im Prinzip von Virtueller Realität beschrieben. Somit plädiert der Beitrag für ein Umdenken in den Vorstellungen von Realitäten, von Normativität, sowie für die Inklusion innerer und marginalisierter Realitäten in die VR-Landschaft.

Published: July 2024

Carolin Sibilak und Jocelyne Stahl beschäftigen sich in ihrem Beitrag mit Einsatz und Nutzen von Metaverse-Technologien in der Bildung und Vermittlung im Museum. Am Beispiel des Berliner Humboldt Forums zeigen sie, wie mithilfe von AR und VR museale Sammlungen und historische Entwicklungen kritisch reflektiert und kontextualisiert werden können. Sie beschreiben den Einsatz von VR in Workshops mit Schulklassen als kreative Methode zur Erschließung und Diskussion gesellschaftspolitischer Fragestellungen. Ausgehend vom edukativen Ansatz des Making entfaltet sich in der Verbindung von analogen und digitalen Tools ein besonderes Potenzial und konfrontiert das Museum mit dystopischen Science-Fiction-Bildern und visionären Zukunftsszenarien.

Impulse für die Kulturstudien in der Germanistik
Authors: Pelizaeus Ludolf
Published: July 2024

The aim of this paper is to take a closer look at a sub-area that occupies an important place in the canon of German studies in France as "Histoire et Civilisation", in order to show what advantage a strengthening of the approach in the field of cultural studies would have for German studies in particular. The focus here is on the cultural heritage of North Africa as a sign of the settlers who came there from Europe. By focusing on the material heritage they left behind, a reference to »material studies« is also established.
Sinn in der Klimakrise
Authors: Probst Simon
Published: July 2024

Im Kontext der Klimakrise erscheint Sinn nicht mehr als isoliertes Phänomen menschlicher Kultur, sondern eingebettet in das Leben auf der Erde. Daraus ergeben sich neue Fragen an der Schnittstelle von Semiotik, Literatur- sowie Kulturwissenschaft: Welche Rolle spielen Zeichen für unseren Planeten? Wie ist die kulturelle Sinnproduktion in das Erdsystem eingebunden? Und wie lesen wir Klassiker der Literaturgeschichte im planetaren Kontext als Teil einer Geschichte des Anthropozäns? Simon Probst entwirft kulturtheoretische Perspektiven auf Klimaforschung. Er erkundet Literatur im Lichte unseres Planeten und umgekehrt. So entsteht nicht zuletzt eine eindrückliche Darstellung davon, wie Literatur unseren Blick auf die Erde verändert.
Art Intelligence
Authors: Svenungsson Jan
Published: July 2024

Artists always react to the times in which they live. They may celebrate them or criticize them, often trying to change them. But this is the first time in history that technology controlled by private companies is offering to replace the work of writers, musicians, illustrators and visual artists. What impact will generative AI have on how we create art and how we understand what art is for? How will it affect the role of the artist in the future and the conditions under which artists will work? Jan Svenungsson tackles these questions, investigating what AI might do for art, and what it might change, circling the core issue of what it is in human art-making that cannot be replaced.
Strategies of Kindergarten Teachers and Parents in Preparing Children's School Readiness: Academic, Social, and Emotional Perspectives
Authors: Mardiah Lisda Yuni , Wulan Sri , Akbar Zarina
Published: July 2024

Purpose – This study aims to investigate the strategies employed by kindergarten teachers and parents in preparing children's school readiness in the Batang Angkola District, considering the local context and related social dynamics.
Design/methods/approach – Utilizing a qualitative descriptive method, the research combines a descriptive approach to outline existing phenomena with a qualitative approach to explore the meanings and interpretations of the strategies used. Data were collected through direct interviews with several kindergarten teachers and parent representatives in kindergartens and surrounding areas in the Batang Angkola District. Additionally, secondary data related to supporting theories on children's school readiness were utilized.
Findings – The findings reveal that both kindergarten teachers and parents are not fully prepared for children's school readiness. This is evidenced by the non-alignment of teachers' educational backgrounds with early childhood education and the parents' primary focus on academic readiness, often neglecting other critical aspects such as social and emotional development. Furthermore, the strategies implemented by kindergarten teachers and parents fail to holistically address the needs of children during the transition process.
Research implications/limitations – The study is limited to the Batang Angkola District and may not be generalizable to other regions. These findings highlight areas in educational practices that require improvement and suggest the need for further research to develop more effective strategies for holistic school readiness preparation.
Practical implications – The insights gained from this study provide guidance for the development of more holistic and integrated school readiness preparation programs that can better support children during their transition to school. These programs should aim to balance academic learning with social, emotional, and physical development to ensure well-rounded preparedness.
Originality/value – This research sheds light on the specific challenges faced by kindergarten teachers and parents in the Batang Angkola District, emphasizing the importance of a holistic approach to school readiness that includes academic, social, and emotional aspects. By addressing these challenges, the study contributes to the broader understanding of effective strategies for early childhood education in similar contexts.

Kesalahpahaman Barat tentang Perempuan Muslim: Kritik Lila Abu- Lughod dalam Do Muslim Women Need Saving?
Authors: Primadhany Erry Fitrya , Maimunah
Published: July 2024

Kalangan Barat menganggap bahwa persoalan keterbatasan hak perempuan Muslim masih sering terjadi.  Persoalan tata cara berpakaian, kejahatan kehormatan dan lainnya dianggap sebagai batasan-batasan bagi seorang Muslim. Anggapan tersebut memicu pesan bahwa “perempuan muslim perlu diselamatkan”. Lila Abu-Lughod melalui karyanya “Do Women Muslim Need Saving” mencoba untuk mengkiritisi anggapan ini. Tulisan ini menggunakan metode kepustakaan. Sumber data berupa buku dan jurnal yang berkaitan dengan feminisme dan buku karya Lila Abu Lughod yang berjudul “Do Women Muslim Need Saving?”. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa perlu pengkajian ulang mengenai asumsi Barat terhadap Islam khususnya   perempuan Muslim. Perempuan Muslim menjalankan aktifitasnya sesuai dengan apa yang diyakini. Segala ketidakadilan yang menimpa perempuan Muslim pada dasarnya merupakan kasus yang berlaku secara global kepada siapa saja tidak hanya perempuan yang beragama Islam. Apabila terdapat ketidakadilan maka hal tersebut bukanlah datang dari Agama Islam melainkan pada tatanan  sosial, budaya,  kebijakan Pemerintah dan lain sebagainya. Karena di dalam Islam, hak-hak seorang Muslim telah dijamin tanpa membedakan baik laki-laki ataupun perempuan. 
[Westerners think that the issue of limited Muslim women's rights still occurs frequently. For example, the issue of dress codes, honor crimes and others. This assumption triggers the message that "Muslim women need to be saved". Lila Abu-Lughod through her work “Do Women Muslim Need Saving” tries to criticize it. This paper uses the library method. The data sources are books and journals related to feminism and a book by Lila Abu Lughod entitled “Do Women Muslims Need Saving?”. The results obtained indicate that there is a need to review Western assumptions about Islam, especially regarding Muslim women. Muslim women carry out their activities in accordance with what is believed. All injustices that befell Muslim women are basically cases that apply globally to anyone, not only women who are Muslim. If there is injustice then it does not come from religion but social conditions, government and so on. Because in Islam, rights are guaranteed regardless of whether men or women.]
Congo Square and the Second Line
Authors: Gaspard Bolin Marc T.
Published: July 2024

In New Orleans, Louisiana, nearly every occasion is marked with a celebratory parade, most famously the Mardi Gras processions that seemingly take over the city during Carnival Time. But throughout the year, jazz funerals and parades known as "second lines" fill the Backatown neighborhoods of New Orleans with the jubilant sounds of brass band music. Despite this, and the rapidly growing body of well-researched and well-meaning literature by "new jazz studies" scholars, the second line culture that derives from Congo Square remains excluded from jazz history courses the world over in favor of a single text that provides an "easier read" for undergraduate students. The resulting texts provide incomplete surveys that do little to correct previously held assumptions about jazz and are now deeply embedded within American culture, serving as an indoctrinating canon that limits the brass band's role and its practitioners within the jazz tradition. Those scholars that do mention brass bands—past or present—spend little time discussing them. This article highlights these oversights and problematizes the monolithic narrative proliferating jazz texts today. Herein, I will discuss the New Orleans second line culture and its relevance to shifting narratives about jazz history in relation to Congo Square and its historical implications: what is Congo Square, what about it is missing from the jazz narrative, accepting practitioner's beliefs and social actions as proof, and why it is crucial that we (scholars/educators) implement practitioners' beliefs and community and new jazz studies scholarship to create a better, more nuanced picture of jazz as a whole.
Graphic symbol perception validity of people with developmental disabilities and language-hearing impairments in the survey items for people with disabilities
Authors: Chae Soojung , Na Ji Young ,   Korean Society of Augmentative and Alternative Communication
Published: July 2024

Background and Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the validity of picture symbols included in a questionnaire developed for the survey of needs and satisfaction at the G Lifelong Education Center for People with Disabilities in 2021, considering the characteristics of disabilities. Methods: A survey on the iconicity and comprehensibility of picture symbols included in the questionnaire was conducted on 38 adults with developmental disabilities, 32 adults with language-hearing impairments, and 27 professionals working in related institutions. Two experts were consulted to assess the suitability of the questionnaire based on the Easy-to-read guidelines. Results: For individuals with developmental disabilities, overall accuracy in tasks related to iconicity was low, while comprehension of symbolic representation was high. In contrast, individuals with language-hearing impairments generally showed low comprehension of symbols, and symbols that exhibited low average accuracy in iconicity testing also showed low average scores in comprehension tests. The analysis of symbol comprehension in professionals working in related institutions was similar to that of individuals with language-hearing impairments but differed from those with developmental disabilities. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate differences in the ability to infer the meaning of symbols included in the questionnaire based on the type of disability. Furthermore, it was anticipated that by incorporating feedback from experts based on Easy-to-read guidelines to modify and improve the questionnaire, a more tailored questionnaire for different types of disabilities could be developed to better serve its intended purpose.

Background and Objectives: The purpose of this study was to find out the difficulties encountered by general educators’ when communicating with students with disabilities in an inclusive elementary classroom and to explore these students’ support needs. Method: To explore the difficulties encountered by the teachers when communicating with students with disabilities, an online survey was conducted on 240 teachers in inclusive elementary school classrooms, and data were analyzed with descriptive statistics such as mean and frequency. Results: The participants showed above-average level of difficulty in communicating with students with disabilities, even though the majority of students with disabilities had verbal communication ability. The teachers showed diverse responses regarding the nonverbal communication behaviors of students with disabilities in various situations within the inclusive classrooms. The nonverbal communication behaviors included challenging behaviors. Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, the necessity of introducing evidence-based practice for various learners in inclusive classrooms, integrating behavioral problem support and communication support, and empowering the capabilities of special educators as communication support experts were discussed.
Listening to the Virtual Greenhouse: Musics, Sounding, and Online Plantcare
Authors: McGhee Cana F.
Published: July 2024

Plantcare is having a moment. Recent years have seen an outpouring of audiovisual content across several social media platforms, wherein humans film and photograph themselves taking care of houseplants. These self-proclaimed “plant moms” build community through their shared passion for caring for houseplants and showing this form of tree-hugging to a wider community. In this contribution, I theorize this plant-filled digital terrain as a virtual greenhouse, a space where humans can perform with and show off their collections of houseplants. This virtual greenhouse points to how plantcare becomes a space to play with expectations of humanness apart from human–animal boundaries. Furthermore, contrary to notions of plants as being silent or inaudible lifeforms, this virtual greenhouse is rich with music and sound. Following an exploration of the overarching features of plantcare content and other kinds of digital human–nonhuman representations, I describe how creators in the virtual greenhouse use ASMR-like techniques, acousmatic narration, and reinterpretations of popular music to make their intimate relationships with nonhuman life audible. This contribution demonstrates how these human–plant assemblages engage with a “back-to-nature” environmentalism and present opportunities to reframe human–nonhuman relationships through creative practice.
Finding continuers in Swedish Sign Language
Authors: Börstell Carl
Published: July 2024

In this paper, I use methods from corpus linguistics and computer vision to find candidates for continuers – that is, conversational markers that signal comprehension and encouragement to the primary speaker/signer to continue – in a corpus of Swedish Sign Language (STS). Using different methods based on distributional patterns in conversational turns, I identify a small set of manual signs – particularly the sign JA@ub ‘yes’ – that exhibit the characteristics associated with continuers, such as occurring frequently in repeated sequences of overlapping but noncompetitive turns. The identified signs correspond to those found in previous research on manual backchannels in STS, demonstrating that quantitative, distribution-based approaches are successful in identifying continuers. In a second step, I employ methods from computer vision to analyze a subset of the corpus videos, and find that the continuer candidates show interesting form characteristics: they are small in visible articulation and thus conversationally unobtrusive by often being articulated low and with little movement in signing space. The results show that distribution-based approaches can be used successfully with sign language corpus data, and that the nature of continuers exhibits similarities across modalities of human language.

Выполнено комплексное биостратиграфическое, литологическое и геохимическое изучение пород керна скважин, пробуренных в бассейне реки Кюленке. Исследование найденных ископаемых остатков, состава пород, анализ распределения трилобитов и изменения литолого-геохимических характеристик отложений позволили выявить особенности строения маркирующих горизонтов, провести корреляцию разрезов скважин и обнажений, сопоставить отдельные интервалы кембрийских отложений с региональными зонами Юдомо-Оленекского фациального региона Сибирской платформы. Установлено, что породы куонамской свиты обогащены ураном (U), наблюдается прямая связь между содержанием U и органическим углеродом (С орг) пород, характерная для черносланцевых отложений нижнего и среднего кембрия из обнажений востока Сибирской платформы. Впервые выявлена связь радиоактивности пород по гамма-каротажу с содержанием U и С орг в породах кембрия.

We have studied biostratigraphy, lithology and geochemistry of drill cores from the Kyulenke River basin. The study of fossil remains and rock compositions, the analysis of trilobite distributions and changes in the lithological and geochemical characteristics of the sediments made it possible to identify structural features of the marker horizons, to correlate borehole sections and outcrops, to compare individual Cambrian intervals and the regional zones of the Yudoma-Olenek facies region of the Siberian Platform. The study has shown rocks of the Kuonamka Fomation to be enriched in uranium (U) and revealed a direct relationship between the contents of U and organic carbon (C org) in the analyzed rocks, typical for the lower and middle Cambrian black shale deposits sampled from the outcrops in the eastern parts of the Siberian Platform. For the first time, a relationship of rock radioactivity by gamma-ray logging with the contents of U and C org in Cambrian rocks was established.

On the analytic extension of three ratios of Horn's confluent hypergeometric function $\mathrm{H}_7$
Authors: Hladun V. , Rusyn R. , Dmytryshyn M.
Published: July 2024

In this paper, we consider the extension of the analytic functions of two variables by special families of functions — continued fractions. In particular, we establish new symmetric domains of the analytical continuation of three ratios of Horn's confluent hypergeometric function $\mathrm{H}_7$ with certain conditions on real and complex parameters using their continued fraction representations. We use Worpitzky's theorem, the multiple parabola theorem, and a technique that extends the convergence, already known for a small domain, to a larger domain to obtain domains of convergence of continued fractions, and the PC method to prove that they are also domains of analytical continuation.
A Note on Some Properties of Unbounded Bilinear Forms Associated with Skew-Symmetric $L^q(\Omega)$-Matrices
Authors: Kogut P.I.
Published: July 2024

We study the bilinear forms on the space of measurable $p$-integrable functions which are generated by skew-symmetric matrices with unbounded coefficients. We give an example showing that if a skew-symmetric matrix contains a locally unbounded $L^q$-elements, then the corresponding quadratic forms can be alternating. These questions are closely related to the existence issues of the Nuemann boundary value problem for $p$-Laplace elliptic equations with non-symmetric and locally unbounded anisotropic diffusion matrices.

We show how with the help of nonlinear paired regression, namely cubic regression, having experimental data, it is possible to investigate the relationship of tangential stresses between different layers of a cylindrical part during build-up. Six pairs of dependencies (models) between tangential stresses are considered. For each pair of dependencies, the accuracy of the built model was assessed using the average error of approximation and Fisher's F-criterion, and a comparative analysis was conducted. Despite some contradictions that arose during the evaluation of the models according to various regression parameters it was established that at least four of the six models are optimal and allow to adequately model the process of the formation of the stress-strain state in the details and elements of structures with significantly lower costs even before the stage of manufacturing finished products.
O humanismo integral e a pedagogia do encontro
Authors: De Moliner Eufrásio Thiago
Published: July 2024

O processo pedagógico é, como sugere a etimologia da palavra, um caminho a ser percorrido em conjunto. O processo educacional atravessa diferentes períodos da história e vive o desafio de conjugar diferentes perspectivas e experiências. Nesse cenário, a relação entre o educador e o educando precisa ser constantemente revisada e reformulada. Lendo o atual período da história em chave hipermoderna, como sugere Gilles Lipovetsky, o desafio consiste em lidar com as tecnologias sem esquecer-se da interminável busca pelo humano e o sentido da vida. A busca pela superação de um analfabetismo existencial, que mantém o sujeito alheio a si mesmo, precisa valer-se de uma pedagogia que promova o encontro, tendo presente um humanismo integral e, com ele, o princípio beneditino ora et labora.

O artigo analisa a atuação digital do Pe. Patrick Fernandes, que passou de mero “pároco de aldeia” do interior do Pará, no Brasil, a “macroinfluenciador digital”, alcançando milhões de seguidores no Instagram em poucas semanas ao longo de 2021. Busca-se apontar as principais causas e consequências socioeclesiais desse processo. Primeiramente, apresentam-se alguns elementos teóricos sobre o fenômeno da influência digital, particularmente religiosa. Em seguida, analisam-se a pessoa/persona, performance e conteúdo digitais do presbítero, a fim de compreender como emergiram e se manifestam suas práticas comunicativas. Articulam-se, em seguida, algumas reflexões comunicacionais pastorais sobre a influência digital do Pe. Patrick. Com isso, em conclusão, busca-se apreender alguns limites e possibilidades da influência digital católica para a práxis eclesial contemporânea.

Este estudo se propõe a verificar a presença de elementos comuns à metodologia catecumenal nos relatos neotestamentários de Mt 18,19-20 e At 8,26-40. É pertinente avaliar a descrição que os relatos apresentam sobre a ação evangelizadora a fim de, verificando a metodologia apresentada, melhor compreender a dinâmica missionária nas primeiras comunidades. Embora o modelo catecumenal não esteja explícito nos relatos neotestamentários e que seu surgimento propriamente dito seja posterior, verificar intuições a seu respeito pode lançar luzes sobre a compreensão missionária na Igreja primitiva e contribuir na discussão de retorno às fontes, considerando o método catecumenal e a prática presente nos relatos bíblicos. A presença de indícios catecumenais revela um itinerário formativo que gradualmente insere o fiel na vida da comunidade ao passo que conduz a uma decisão consciente sobre a adesão de fé. Esta metodologia pode inspirar contribuições para a prática evangelizadora. Abordando os textos citados em comparação com as etapas do catecumenato e realizando a coleta de dados bibliográficos, busca-se investigar padrões correlatos que possam indicar uma intuição metodológica catecumenal e refletir sobre a missão evangelizadora.

Objective. To demonstrate the possibilities of minimally invasive technologies in the diagnosis and treatment of gunshot wounds of the chest and spine. Methods. Patient N., 42, was wounded in the chest during mortar fire. From the diagnosis: gunshot fragment blind penetrating wound chest on the right with a gunshot fracture of the right scapula, III–V ribs on the right, damage to the right lung with the presence of a metal fragment paravertebrallyon the right at the level ThV–ThVI vertebrae, right-sided hemopneumothorax, right-sided post-traumatic pulmonitis, spinal cord injury, lower paraplegia. Results. The final is established diagnosis: gunshot fragment blind penetrating wound chest on the right with a gunshot fracture of the right scapula,III–V ribs on the right, damage to the right lung with the presence of a metal fragment paravertebrally on the right at the level ThV vertebra, right-sided hemopneumothorax. right-sided post-traumatic pneumonia, spinal cord injury, lower paraplegia. The operation was performed: video-assisted thoracoscopy on the right, revision of the pleural cavity, removal of a metal fragment from the body of the ThV vertebra, sanitation and redrainingof the right pleural cavity according to Bulau, which lasted 40 min. In the future, after 2 weeks, the stitches and signs were removed neurological deficit regressed, the wounded was sent to the military medical commission and discharged to parts. Conclusions. Gunshot wounds to the chest with spinal injuryare rare. The use of modern magnetic surgical instrument allows to remove ferromagnetic foreign bodies during vertebral injury. The use of minimally invasive operative interventions for gunshot wounds of the chest with spinal cord injury reduces operative trauma and can be applied to the third level of medical care.
Climate Risk: Reshaping the Energy Sector
Authors: Sobik Bartosz
Published: July 2024

Objective: Climate risk is one of the major challenges for the energy sector globally. The energy transition and the struggle against climate change are putting increasing pressure on energy entities as well as create a need for action to mitigate climate risks. The purpose of this article is to characterise climate risk in the energy sector, with a focus on the electric power sector, as well as to review their impact on the functioning of energy entities.
Research Design & Methods: This article reviews the literature and uses publicly available data on the operation of the electricity system and the price of CO2 emission allowances in the EU ETS so as to characterise the impact of climate risk on the energy sector with a particular focus on the Polish electricity sector.
Findings: Climate risk is one of the most important risks determining the functioning of entities in the energy sector and affecting the energy transition. It manifests itself in the form of the emergence of a set of new risks: carbon risk, weather risk, financial risk, regulatory risk, and social risk, all of which directly affect energy operators and reshape the energy sector.
Implications/Recommendations: The above creates the need to adapt and adjust to current market trends as well as the need to mitigate climate risks in order to keep a market position. It is, therefore, necessary to implement climate risk management measures to adapt the company’s operations to changing market realities and an increasing exposure to climate risk. The results of the study can be used by policymakers and decision-makers responsible for energy policy and companies’ strategy related to energy transition and compliance with the ESG standards.
Contribution/Value added: The research contributes to the field of climate risk in the energy sector. The value added of the paper is the interdisciplinary approach to a broad concept of climate risk, consisting both of transition and physical risks, with a detailed analysis about its influence on the energy sector.
