This article aims to track the Qur'an review of corruption. Because one of the most prevalent issues in Indonesia today is criminal acts of corruption, various ways have been done by the State to with corruption to increase the sanction for convicted of corruption, but it is still not yet yielding results that encourage the community. The data presented in this paper is sourced from literature review by tracing the sources directly related to the theme especially the Qur'an and Sunnah. From the results of this study found that: Corruption as an extra-ordinary crimes crime is not explicitly mentioned by the Qur'an, but some terms such as ghulul, suht, sarq, hirabah some terms are considered to represent the Qur'an's notion of corruption. The punishment for the perpetrators of corruption, the most appropriate according to the authors is the punishment of the ta'dzir finger which in its implementation may equal or even exceed the sanction of hadd penalty. In this case the rulers are given the power to determine punishments according to the public interest, and should not be contrary to the provisions of shari'ah and general principles, such as applying Undang-undang No. 31 Tahun 1999 and which has been perfected by Undang-undang Nomor 20 Tahun 2001 Tentang Pemberantasan Tindak Pidana Korupsi.

Replicating the Disease framing problem during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic: A study of stress, worry, trust, and choice under risk
Authors: Rachev Nikolay R. , Han Hyemin , Lacko David , Gelpi Rebekah , Yamada Yuki , Lieberoth Andreas
Published: December 2020

In the risky-choice framing effect, different wording of the same options leads to predictably different choices. In a large-scale survey conducted from March to May 2020 and including 88,181 participants from 47 countries, we investigated how stress, concerns, and trust moderated the effect in the Disease problem, a prominent framing problem highly evocative of the COVID-19 pandemic. As predicted by the appraisal-tendency framework, risk aversion and the framing effect in our study were larger than under typical circumstances. Furthermore, perceived stress and concerns over coronavirus were positively associated with the framing effect. Contrary to predictions, however, they were not related to risk aversion. Trust in the government's efforts to handle the coronavirus was associated with neither risk aversion nor the framing effect. The proportion of risky choices and the framing effect varied substantially across nations. Additional exploratory analyses showed that the framing effect was unrelated to reported compliance with safety measures, suggesting, along with similar findings during the pandemic and beyond, that the effectiveness of framing manipulations in public messages might be limited. Theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed, along with directions for further investigations.
Challenges of Teaching and Learning Business English in Ukrainian Universities
Authors: Avsheniuk Nataliia , Seminikhyna Nataliya
Published: December 2020

The English has been widely used and expanded with the globalization of the business world, notably ESP is considered a part of it. This study aims to seek out the challenges of teaching and learning Business English in Ukrainian universities. Considerable experience as Business English teachers at several Ukrainian universities and ongoing contact with colleagues in the professional community of ESP teachers, provides an opportunity to affirm that the results we found in the empirical study are typical for most Ukrainian universities. This assumption was also supported in the discussions with the ESP teachers from different regions of Ukraine during the British Council's “English for Universities” project (2015-2018). Data collection was done by conducting a questionnaire survey for the ESP practitioners that had the issues in teaching ESP course at the Faculty of Economics, Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv The findings revealed the challenges that ESP practitioners face, particularly: difference in students’ language competence, course content selection, lack of motivation, in-class hours etc. and possible solutions in overcoming the constraints in teaching. The study suggests that Business English practitioners should develop and improve practical tools for evaluation and certification of results following the requirements and further improvements should be implemented in the methodology and organization of ESP teaching, the content of the course, the course design, the development of course-books and supplementary teaching materials for each specialty.

Endovascular Treatment of Distal Posterior Cerebral Artery Infectious Aneurysm
Authors: Bohara Manoj , Bista Prakash
Published: December 2020

Intracranial infectious aneurysms are rare entities accounting for approximately 1- 6 % of all cerebral aneurysms and have high propensity of rupture associated with mortality. The principal risk factor is infective endocarditis and the management includes antimicrobial treatment with or without obliteration of the aneurysm by microsurgical or endovascular means.

We present a young patient with intracranial infectious aneurysm who was successfully treated with endovascular coil embolization. A 20-years-old female with history of rheumatic heart disease presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage due to rupture of IIA associated with infective endocarditis. Cerebral angiogram revealed right distal posterior cerebral artery aneurysm. Echocardiography showed vegetation in mitral valve and blood culture was positive for Enterococcus faecalis. Antibiotic treatment was administered for 6 weeks. The follow-up angiogram showed an enlarging aneurysm. So, the patient underwent endovascular coil embolization of the aneurysm preserving the parent artery. There were no post-procedure deficits.

Intracranial infectious aneurysm should be considered as a differential diagnosis in a patient with infective endocarditis presenting with focal neurological deficits or altered consciousness. Early diagnosis and individualized approach are the key to successful treatment and endovascular treatment is an effective modality for such lesions.

L’ostéome ostéoïde (OO) représente 10 à 12 % des tumeurs osseuses bénignes. Le pied et la cheville sont concernés dans 2 à 15 % des cas. La résection chirurgicale à ciel ouvert est maintenant supplantée par les techniques percutanées guidées par le scanner qu’il s’agisse de la thermocoagulation par radiofréquence, de la photocoagulation laser ou de la cryoablation. Cette étude a pour but d’évaluer l’efficacité thérapeutique de la thermocoagulation scanoguidée (TPS). Il s’agit d’une étude rétrospective monocentrique incluant tous les OO traités par TPS au CHRU de Lille entre 2003 et 2015, ayant un recul minimum d’un an. Dix-sept patients ont été inclus, dix hommes et sept femmes, d’âge moyen 24 ans. Quinze patients ont fait l’objet d’une évaluation par questionnaire téléphonique au recul moyen de 93 mois. Les douleurs ont disparu dans un délai moyen de 4,5 jours. La reprise du travail se faisait en 11 jours en moyenne. Le degré de satisfaction moyen est de 92 %, le score SF-36 de 93, le score FAAM de 177. Une seule récidive est à signaler, mais aucune complication cutanée ou vasculonerveuse. Le traitement des OO localisés au pied et à la cheville par TPS permet d’excellents résultats sans morbidité.
Vladimir Arsen’ev and Whales in Russia’s Revolutionary Far East
Authors: Tucker Jones Ryan
Published: December 2020

This article examines the contributions the famous Far Eastern writer Vladimir Arsen’ev made to the development of the Russian/Soviet whaling industry in the 1920s. During that time Arsen’ev worked as a “specialist for marine mammal hunting” for Dal’rybokhota. He studied the whales of the Russian Far East and helped craft the Far Eastern Republic’s policy toward its subjects who wanted to start whaling. As someone with a deep knowledge of imperial-era environmental destruction and conservation, Arsen’ev helped develop measures designed to protect the region’s Indigenous people and fur-bearing animals while strengthening Russian sovereignty. He also advocated the wholesale slaughter of killer whales and ultimately failed to restrain destructive commercial whaling. However, in addition to adding a new chapter to Arsen’ev’s biography, his ideas about whales and whaling help us better understand the Far East’s environment history and especially the way imperial-era ideas around conservation survived into the Soviet period.

The Relevance of E. Fromm's Ideas about Sane Society in 2020
Authors: Pashkovsky E. A.
Published: December 2020

Introduction. The paper discusses E. Fromm's ideas about human mental health, his social needs and society, which promotes and at the same time prevents the maximum disclosure of a person's potential in accordance with his or her nature. In contrast to sociological relativism, Fromm substantiates the position of normative humanism, according to which, when examining a person's paths to happiness, one should analyze, first of all, the mental health of society, and not a person, consider how a particular social system contributes to the productive solution of the problems facing a person. The purpose of the paper is to assess the degree of relevance of Fromm's ideas about a healthy society in2020 in accordance with the realities of our time. Scientific novelty is determined by the small number of similar studies in contemporary Russian sociology.

Methodology and sources. The paper uses the approach of normative humanism proposed by Fromm. Psychoanalysis, socio-psychological traditions of behaviorism and cognitivism are also used.

Results and discussion. A human, according to Fromm, has a dual nature: he or her is no longer an animal, and even for full mental health, and even more so, for feelings of selfrealization and happiness, it is not enough for him or her to just satisfy biological needs, following instincts. Having lost harmony with nature and at the same time remaining a part of it, having received reason and awareness of his or her own life, he or she at the same time acquires the need to resolve the contradictions of the existence. They express basic social needs that can be addressed in a more or less productive way: involvement as opposed to narcissism, overcoming and creativity as opposed to destructiveness, rootedness and brotherhood as opposed to incest, a sense of identity and individuality as opposed to herd conformism, the need for an orientation system: reason versus irrationality. In modern Fromm's Western society, market capitalism is increasingly penetrating into everyday relations between people, forming orientations towards an unproductive solution to the problem of human existence. In modern society, this trend continues unabated, making Fromm's conclusions and recommendations no less relevant than a few decades ago.

Conclusion. Due to the widespread use of the Internet and social networks, the development of mass social movements with radical views on everyday life, strengthening the aggressive manner of communication, the preservation of pre-existing contradictions between representatives of national and other groups, modern society contributes to maintaining a “market” approach to human relations. Under such conditions, the disclosure of a person's potential in accordance with his or her nature is difficult, nevertheless, everyone has the opportunity, critically referring to social stereotypes, and mastering the art of thinking really rationally, to strive for happiness.
Vocalic Ratio as One of the Most Important Criteria of Phonetic Classification of World Languages
Authors: Genidze N. K.
Published: December 2020

Introduction. The article analyses the vowel-consonant ratio as one of the most important criteria of phonetic typology in the world languages. Scientific relevance of the research is based on quantitative and qualitative analysis and comparison of grammar and phonetics in typologically, genetically and historically different languages.

Methodology and sources. Certain language is determined by vocalic ratio – a concept introduced to identify the vowels-consonant relation and measured  through  vk = V/C. Thus, all the languages can be either vocalic (vk > 1.3), consonantal (vk < 0.7) or mixed (0.7 > vk > 1.3). The article concerns the ideas by Ferdinand de Saussure (Indo-European root’s structure) and Aleksander V. Isachenko (phonetic typology).

Results and discussion. The author conducts a comparative analysis of phonological systems and phonetic analysis of text fragments in several languages of different families and different historical periods: Gothic, old English, old Icelandic, English, Danish, French, and Finnish. The research reveals how the language’s structure matches its vowel-consonant ratio, i. e. disclose a link between its phonetic and morphology-syntactic classifications.

Conclusion. The research has proved the fact that analytic trends in phonemes, on the one hand, depend on the vowel-consonant distribution in the language and speech, and on historically determined difference between the phonemes’ function – on the other. Inevitably, too, the language’s evolution from inflectional-synthetic to analytic or agglutinative (analytic-agglutinative) type affects all language levels, including the phonetic one. Consonants are stronger and almost resistible  to  changes;  they  function  to distinguish the sense, making relative words so similar. The development of vowel system triggers the development of analytic functions, which are bound to impact the language system. Increasing number of vowels, emerging diphthongs and triphthongs are the result of analytic abilities of the language.
Stimuli Selection Criteria for the Experiment “Visual Perception of Imitative Words in Native and Non-Native Language by the Method Lexical Decision”
Authors: Flaksman M. A. , Lavitskaya Yu. V. , Sedelkina Yu. G. , Tkacheva L. O.
Published: December 2020

Introduction. The present article is aiming to describe the procedure of stimuli selection for the psycho-semantic experiment on visual perception of imitative words in native (Russian) and non-native language (English). The methodology of the experiment is predominantly based on the implementation of the “lexical decision” method. Thus, the aim of the article is to verify the procedure of and to define clear-cut criteria for the material selection. In particular, we introduce indicating de-iconization stage of imitative words as an important criterion for data pre-selection. De-iconization is a gradual loss of an iconic sound-sense link in an imitative word due to the parallel impact of regular sound changes and semantic shifts.

Methodology and sources. The  research  methodology  is  based  on  the  works  of

S. V. Voronin who is the founder of phonosemantics as a linguistic discipline inRussia, as well as on works of his followers (including a co-author of this paper, M. A. Flaksman). The article is also based on the methodology of research on phonotactics. The authors also use psycho-semantic methods such as the method of lexical decision. The main sources of stimuli selection are The Russia Etymological Dictionary by M. Vasmer, The Oxford English Dictionary, the frequency dictionaries by O. N. Liashevskaya and S. A. Sharov. The classification of imitative words according to their de-iconization stages was done by the method of the diachronic evaluation of the imitative lexicon.

Results and discussion. As a result of a rigorous selection procedure described in the article the authors arrived on 128 stimuli (an even number (64 + 64) of words and quasiwords). The quasi-words are coined according to phonotactic rules and made according to the same pattern as the corresponding words. The group of real words is constituted of two sub-groups: 32 imitative words and 32 non-imitative words. The words from these two subgroups are homomorphous – they have the same number of syllables, frequency and belong to the same parts of speech. Imitative words include onomatopoeic and soundsymbolic words of different sub-classes and de-iconization stages. The combination of the material selection methods discussed in this paper (especially, the introduction of the distinction of imitative words according to their de-iconization stage) is aiming at facilitating the experiment procedure as well as eliminating the chance factors.

Conclusion. The stimuli selection for the psycholinguistic experiment based on the procedure introduced in this paper allows to establish the existing patterns of the systematic function of human brain in the process of visual perception of imitative words on different de-iconization stages.

Regarding the legal bases of SUS, it is known for only 73.3% of the sample. The data show that 80% of professionals know the LRF. About LOA, only 40% of the interviewed professionals claim to know it. When the subjects were asked about their knowledge about PPA, only 60% said they knew the instrument. SIOPS is known to only 40% of the group. 86.7% of professionals know the RAG. PPI is known by 66.7% of the interviewed professionals. As for the PS, only 66.7% claim to know it, the PES is known by 86.7% of the interviewees. When asked about the priority agenda, 66.7% said they knew it. Some managerial skills are highly encouraged, others are not. Among those stimulated, they are: openness to change, ethics and professionalism and quality awareness, with 46.7% of respondents responding positively to these stimuli. Other skills such as acting preventively and expressing themselves critically (40% each) and knowledge about health policies (53.3%). In addition, we can see: teamwork (40%), communication (46.7%) and strategic vision (33.3%). Other skills are reasonably encouraged: initiative and creativity; and ability to lead people (26.7% each). 40% of managers do not feel encouraged to participate in decision-making processes. At the end of the study, the influence of the managers’ profile on the improvement of management practices was noticed, since it showed the potentialities and challenges faced and will serve as a basis for the process of permanent qualification of the professionals involved in management, translated into more effective and efficient, provided by the knowledge and use of mechanisms to support SUS management.

Published: December 2020

The article presents a solution to an equation describing the processes of filling depressions with water in the relief of formation and ancient transgressive seas. A model has been developed for the course of the sea level during the creation of the sea and during its drying up. The graphs of the course of the level of the Sarmatian and early Khvalynian Caspian seas are presented. It is shown that the ancient Caspian seas had an upper boundary during transgression and a lower one during regression.

The incidence of primary cutaneous melanoma continues to increase annually and is one of the most aggressive malignancies in humans and need to develop more novel non-surgical therapies. Autophagy and cathepsin B targeted therapy was reported to improve melanoma treatment. Cepharanthine (CEP), a natural alkaloid extracted from the genus Cephalophyllum has been reported to have the function of inhibiting cancers. We found that CEP inhibited human primary cutaneous melanoma cells viability and proliferation in 24 h in vitro, and topical application or intra-tumoral injection of CEP decreased the growth of cutaneous melanoma in mice within 4 weeks. CEP preparations below 50% concentration did not induce skin irritation and allergy reaction on human skin in vivo. Primary cutaneous melanoma cells incubated with CEP, the expression of cathepsin B was decreased and the LC3-I and LC3-II expression changed in a dose-dependent manner, while p53, p21Cip1p, and p16Inka gene expression was up-regulated. We demonstrated the effects of CEP as a novel tumor-regional therapy for cutaneous melanoma and provided a preliminary research basis for future clinical treatment researches and the exploration of integrated treatments with systemic therapy, radiotherapy, and surgery for human primary cutaneous melanoma.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are covalently closed circular structures without 5′ caps and 3′ tails, which are mainly formed from precursor mRNAs (pre-mRNAs) via back-splicing of exons. With the development of RNA sequencing and bioinformatic analysis, circRNAs were recently rediscovered and found to be widely expressed in the tree of life. Cerebellar degeneration-related protein 1 antisense RNA (CDR1as) is recognized as one of the most well-identified circRNAs. It contains over 70 miR-7 binding sites and can regulate gene activity by sponging miR-7. Increasing numbers of studies have recently demonstrated that CDR1as is abnormally expressed in many types of tumors, such as colorectal cancer, cholangiocarcinoma and osteosarcoma, and plays a vital role in the development of cancer. However, there are few reviews focusing on CDR1as and cancer. Hence, it is important to review and discuss the role of CDR1as in cancer. Here, we first review the main biological features of CDR1as. We then focus on the expression and roles of CDR1as in cancer. Finally, we summarize what is known on the role of CDR1as in cancer and discuss future prospects in this area of research.

Published: December 2020

Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) technologies are broadly applied to dissect the cellular heterogeneity and expression dynamics, providing unprecedented insights into single-cell biology. Most of the scRNA-seq studies mainly focused on the dissection of cell types/states, developmental trajectory, gene regulatory network, and alternative splicing. However, besides these routine analyses, many other valuable scRNA-seq investigations can be conducted. Here, we first review cell-to-cell communication exploration, RNA velocity inference, identification of large-scale copy number variations and single nucleotide changes, and chromatin accessibility prediction based on single-cell transcriptomics data. Next, we discuss the identification of novel genes/transcripts through transcriptome reconstruction approaches, as well as the profiling of long non-coding RNAs and circular RNAs. Additionally, we survey the integration of single-cell and bulk RNA-seq datasets for deconvoluting the cell composition of large-scale bulk samples and linking single-cell signatures to patient outcomes. These additional analyses could largely facilitate corresponding basic science and clinical applications.

Published: December 2020

The high incidence of prostate cancer (PCa) increases the need for progress in its diagnosis, staging, and precise treatment. The overexpression of tumor-specific receptors for peptides in human cancer cells, such as gastrin-releasing peptide receptor, natriuretic peptide receptor, and somatostatin receptor, has indicated the ideal molecular basis for targeted imaging and therapy. Targeting these receptors using radiolabeled peptides and analogs have been an essential topic on the current forefront of PCa studies. Radiolabeled peptides have been used to target receptors for molecular imaging in human PCa with high affinity and specificity. The radiolabeled peptides enable optimal quick elimination from blood and normal tissues, producing high contrast for positron emission computed tomography and single-photon emission computed tomography imaging with high tumor-to-normal tissue uptake ratios. Owing to their successful application in visualization, peptide derivatives with therapeutic radionuclides for peptide receptor radionuclide therapy in PCa have been explored in recent years. These developments offer the promise of personalized, molecular medicine for individual patients. Hence, we review the preclinical and clinical literature in the past 20 years and focus on the newer developments of peptide-based radiopharmaceuticals for the imaging and therapy of PCa.

Published: December 2020

As an integral part of patient care, nursing is required to constantly adapt to changes in the healthcare system, as well as the wider financial and societal environment. Among the key factors driving these changes is the aging of population. Combined with an existing shortage of nursing and caregiving professionals, accommodating for the patients and elderly needs within hospitals, elderly-care facilities and at a home setting, becomes a societal challenge. Amongst the technological solutions that have evolved in response to these developments, nursing and assistive robotics claim a pivotal role. The objective of the present study is to provide an overview of today's landscape in nursing and assistive robotics, highlighting the benefits associated with adopting such solutions in standard clinical practice. At the same time, to identify existing challenges and limitations that essentially outline the area's future directions. Beyond technological innovation, the manuscript also investigates the end-users' angle, being a crucial parameter in the success of robotics solutions operating within a healthcare environment. In this direction, the results of a survey designed to capture the nursing professionals' perspective toward more informed robotics design and development are presented.

Human activities change natural landscapes, and in doing so endanger biodiversity and associated ecosystem services. To reduce the net impacts of these activities, such as mining, disturbed areas are rehabilitated and restored. During this process, monitoring is important to ensure that desired trajectories are maintained. In the Carajás region of the Brazilian Amazon, exploration for iron ores has transformed the original ecosystem; natural forest and a savanna formation with lateritic iron duricrust outcrops named canga. Here, native vegetation is logged and topsoil removed and deposited in waste piles along with mine waste. During rehabilitation, these waste piles are hydroseeded with non-native plant species to achieve rapid revegetation. Further, seeds of native canga and forest plant species are planted to point ecological succession towards natural ecosystems. In this study, we investigate diversity and composition of the arthropod community along a post-mining rehabilitation and restoration gradient, taking seasonality and primer bias into account. We use DNA metabarcoding of bulk arthropod samples collected in both the dry and rainy seasons from waste-pile benches at various stages of revegetation: non-revegetated exposed soils, initial stage with one-to-three-year-old stands, intermediate stage with four-to-five-year-old stands, and advanced stage with six-to-seven-year-old stands. We use samples from undisturbed cangas and forests as reference sites. In addition, we vegetation diversity and structure were measured to investigate relations between arthropod community and vegetation structure. Our results show that, over time, the arthropod community composition of the waste piles becomes more similar to the reference forests, but not to the reference cangas. Nevertheless, even the communities in the advanced-stage waste piles are different from the reference forests, and full restoration in these highly diverse ecosystems is not achieved, even after 6 to 7 years. Finally, our results show seasonal variation in arthropod communities and primer bias.

Published: December 2020

Objective

Preeclampsia is the main cause of maternal mortality due to a lack of diagnostic biomarkers and effective prevention and treatment. The immune system plays an important role in the occurrence and development of preeclampsia. This research aimed to identify significant immune-related genes to predict preeclampsia and possible prevention and control methods.

Methods

Differential expression analysis between normotensive and PE pregnancies was performed to identify significantly changed immune-related genes. Generalized linear model (GLM), random forest (RF), and support vector machine (SVM) models were established separately to screen the most suitable biomarkers for the diagnosis of PE among these significantly changed immune-related genes. The consensus clustering method was used to divide the PE cases into several subgroups to explore the function of the significantly changed immune-related genes in PE.

Results

Thirteen significantly changed immune-related genes were obtained by the differential expression analysis. RF was the best model and was used to select the four most important explanatory variables (CRH, PI3, CCL18, and CCL2) to diagnose PE. A nomogram model was constructed to predict PE based on these four variables. The decision curve analysis (DCA) and clinical impact curves revealed that PE patients could significantly benefit from this nomogram. Consensus clustering analysis of the 13 differentially expressed immune-related genes (DIRGs) was used to identify 3 subgroups of PE pregnancies with different clinical outcomes and immune cell infiltration.

Conclusion

Our study identified four immune-related genes to predict PE and three subgroups of PE with different clinical outcomes and immune cell infiltration. Future studies on the three subgroups may provide direction for individualized treatment of PE patients.
