Authors: DV Jeevithashree , Jain Puneet , Mukhopadhyay Abhishek , Saluja Kamal Preet Singh , Biswas Pradipta
Published: August 2021

BACKGROUND: Users with Severe Speech and Motor Impairment (SSMI) often use a communication chart through their eye gaze or limited hand movement and care takers interpret their communication intent. There is already significant research conducted to automate this communication through electronic means. Developing electronic user interface and interaction techniques for users with SSMI poses significant challenges as research on their ocular parameters found that such users suffer from Nystagmus and Strabismus limiting number of elements in a computer screen. This paper presents an optimized eye gaze controlled virtual keyboard for English language with an adaptive dwell time feature for users with SSMI. OBJECTIVE: Present an optimized eye gaze controlled English virtual keyboard that follows both static and dynamic adaptation process. The virtual keyboard can automatically adapt to reduce eye gaze movement distance and dwell time for selection and help users with SSMI type better without any intervention of an assistant. METHODS: Before designing the virtual keyboard, we undertook a pilot study to optimize screen region which would be most comfortable for SSMI users to operate. We then proposed an optimized two-level English virtual keyboard layout through Genetic algorithm using static adaptation process; followed by dynamic adaptation process which tracks users’ interaction and reduces dwell time based on a Markov model-based algorithm. Further, we integrated the virtual keyboard for a web-based interactive dashboard that visualizes real-time Covid data. RESULTS: Using our proposed virtual keyboard layout for English language, the average task completion time for users with SSMI was 39.44 seconds in adaptive condition and 29.52 seconds in non-adaptive condition. Overall typing speed was 16.9 lpm (letters per minute) for able-bodied users and 6.6 lpm for users with SSMI without using any word completion or prediction features. A case study with an elderly participant with SSMI found a typing speed of 2.70 wpm (words per minute) and 14.88 lpm (letters per minute) after 6 months of practice. CONCLUSIONS: With the proposed layout for English virtual keyboard, the adaptive system increased typing speed statistically significantly for able bodied users than a non-adaptive version while for 6 users with SSMI, task completion time reduced by 8.8% in adaptive version than nonadaptive one. Additionally, the proposed layout was successfully integrated to a web-based interactive visualization dashboard thereby making it accessible for users with SSMI.

Authors: Du Yi , Liu Xingjian , Ren Lili , Wu Nan , Guo Weiwei , Wu Ziming , Yang Shiming
Published: August 2021

BACKGROUND: Unapparent saccades in video head impulse test (vHIT) are usually present in Meniere’s disease (MD) patients but tend to be ignored by the clinician. The result of vHIT is constantly questioned in MD patients due to a lack of uniform metrics. A more effective indicator is needed for indicating MD’s pathological progress. OBJECTIVES: To get a comprehensive understanding of the nature and usability of saccades in different MD stages. METHODS: 118 patients diagnosed with unilateral MD were recruited in this study. Patient history, audiological examination, caloric test, vHIT were performed. We proposed ‘raw saccades’ to represent all showed wave peaks behind the head peak and named saccades by their appearance sequence: 1st saccade, 2nd saccade and 3rd saccade. An exploratory saccade analysis was executed to investigate the effectiveness of saccade attributes in identifying MD stages. RESULTS: MD patients have greater detectable 1st saccade than PR score as well as 2nd saccade. The time and velocity of the 1st saccade show high interaural variability (p = 0.028, p = 0.000 respectively). No statistical difference concerning the vHIT gain, PR score and 2nd saccade among stages could be recognized on both affected and contralateral sides. Multiple comparisons show the affected 1st saccade velocity and affected 1st saccade absolute velocity have stage-difference. At late stages (3&4), the affected 1st saccade is manifested as a speed increase, and this measure shows a relatively high correlation with MD stages compared to other vestibular indicators. CONCLUSION: The 1st saccade velocity on the affected side could indicate the MD disease process and severity.
Coffee consumption and psychological wellbeing among Japanese auto factory workers
Authors: Kawada Tomoyuki
Published: August 2021

BACKGROUND: Health habits are sometimes closely related to physical and mental health status. OBJECTIVE: The relationship between coffee consumption and psychological wellbeing was evaluated by considering confounding factors. METHODS: A total of 5,256 men, aged 35 to 60 years, from a workplace in Japan participated in this study conducted in 2018. Psychological wellbeing was evaluated using the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) 12-item version and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used for the analysis. RESULTS: Positive GHQ12 score was significantly associated with average daily sleeping time < 4 h, lack of regular exercise and younger age. In contrast, there was no significant association between positive GHQ12 score and coffee consumption. Coffee consumption and smoking status was not significantly related to psychological wellbeing as measured using the GHQ questionnaire. In contrast, aging, regular exercise and sleeping time were related to psychological wellbeing. CONCLUSION: Coffee consumption was not significantly related to psychological wellbeing, and casual association might be confirmed by a prospective study.
Taxi drivers and modifiable health behaviors: Is stress associated?
Authors: Mirpuri Sheena , Riley Kristen , Gany Francesca
Published: August 2021

BACKGROUND: Taxi drivers, an immigrant male population, may exhibit poor health behaviors and increased health risks. OBJECTIVE: The current study examined stress and demographics as predictors of physical activity (PA), nutrition, sleep, and smoking, and the co-occurrence of these behaviors among taxi drivers. METHODS: A cross-sectional needs assessment was conducted in New York City. The sample (n = 252) was comprised of male taxi drivers, 98%of whom were born outside of the U.S., with the majority from South Asian countries (62%), and 45 years old on average (SD = 11). RESULTS: We found low rates of fruit/vegetable consumption and PA. Rates of stress, PA, and smoking varied by demographic factors. Stress was positively associated with sleep disturbances and negatively associated with smoking. Aside from a relationship between sugar consumption and smoking, other health behaviors were not associated. CONCLUSIONS: While stress appears to impact some indicators of modifiable health behaviors, its lack of relationship with others points to more persistent health issues. Demographic differences found for PA and smoking also point to groups that may especially benefit from interventions. These findings suggest the need for targeted health interventions for taxi drivers in large metropolitan cities.
Work disability and rheumatoid arthritis: Predictive factors
Authors: Papakonstantinou Doxa
Published: August 2021

BACKGROUND: Rheumatoid arthritis is often associated with work disability, a term used to describe the inability to be or to remain employed. Work disability is a common implication of rheumatoid arthritis. OBJECTIVE: This review aims to identify and analyze the predictive factors of work disability among patients with rheumatoid arthritis, as well as to group these factors into broader categories, based on the most current studies in this field. METHODS: An electronic search was conducted using Google Scholar, MEDLINE and PsycINFO databases. Eighty-six international journal articles were finally selected. RESULTS: The results suggest that occupational, personal, medical and societal factors are the main predictive categories of work disability for people with rheumatoid arthritis. CONCLUSIONS: Medical progress has had a positive effect on the development and the rates of work disability among patients with RA. Work disability is, however, not only defined by medical factors. Occupational, personal and societal factors interact with each other and affect the development of work disability in RA. The results of this review emphasize the need for medical and vocational therapy interventions, social support and state policies that target the work status of patients with RA. Future holistic research approaches to the field are required for a complete picture and concrete solutions with the aim of keeping patients with RA employed.

Ovarian tumours are commonly seen in reproductive age group in women. However, when they occur at extremes of age, the suspicion of malignancy increases. The detection of dermoid cyst at 56 years of age is uncommon, hence proper imaging with CA-125 level monitoring is essential. Awareness of benign tumours or rare possibility of malignant transformation in such age is mandatory for surveillance management or planning the surgical procedure.
Diagnosis and Surgical Principles in the Treatment of Acute Injuries of the Flexor Tendons of the Hand
Authors: Georgieva Gordana , Jovanoski Tomislav , Aliu Zana , Djokic Djorgje
Published: August 2021

Injuries to the flexor tendons of the wrist are a separate chapter in wrist surgery. Flexor tendon injuries still remain a challenge to ensure the patient's optimal outcome.

A special problem in the exploration of hand injuries is the accurate assessment of whether there is an injury to one or more tendons, at what height the injury is, and whether it is accompanied by injury to other elements of the hand.

On the volar side of the hand, both flexors of the fingers, superficial and deep, or just one of them, maybe injured. If the lesion is in the first zone depending on the severity of the injury, reinsertion or direct tenography is required.

In the second zone, there are still ambiguous views on the reconstruction of the deep and superficial flexor, ie. whether the surface flexor needs to be reconstructed. Injury to the flexor tendons in the third zone requires careful exploration for possible injury to the neurovascular elements, and the fourth zone often requires the release of the carpal tunnel.

In the most proximal zone of the flexor tendons, the fifth zone, injury to the main blood vessels of the hand and the nerves responsible for sensitive and motor innervation of the hand is possible.

Each injury should be approached with careful preoperative examination, appropriate operative technique as well as postoperative rehabilitation in order to fully restore the function of the hand.

Authors: Petrevski Dimitar , Donevski Ivo , Andonovski Antonio , Mihajlova-Ilie Radmila , Trpeski Simon
Published: August 2021

Background: Isolated distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) dislocations without associated fracture are very rare entities. A few mechanisms of injury were reported in the literature with dorsal(posterior) dislocation being more common than the volar (palmar, anterior) dislocation.

Case report: A 26-year-old male, manual laborer presented to our emergency department (ED) 24 hours post-self-inflected injury with right wrist pain, deformity, and decreased range of motion (ROM). The physical examination showed bruising over the dorsal ulnar side of the wrist, loss of the ulnar styloid bony prominence, abnormal volar fullness of the wrist, and gutter deformity on the dorsal aspect of the distal forearm and wrist. The diagnosis was confirmed by comparative radiographs which were followed by closed reduction and immobilization in the below-elbow cast in pronation for 4 weeks.

Conclusion: Timely accurate diagnosis and conservative treatment with favorable outcome necessitate a proper history on the mechanism of injury with a thorough physical examination, accurate radiographic positioning, and true lateral view.

Published: August 2021

Background: We report the management of a very rare combination of two severe surgical emergencies, ruptured aortic aneurysm with gangrene of the left colon. Both events separately present a high mortality rate in ruptured aortic aneurysms with 48.5%.

Case report: We present the case of a 59-year-old woman that was admitted to the service of Emergencies at University Hospital Center “Mother Theresa” of Tirana on January 4th of 2013, after being transferred from the Regional Hospital of Durres diagnosed with ruptured aortic aneurysm based on an unclear CT. The patient arrived in a state of profound hypovolemic shock after suffering cardiac arrest and underwent resuscitation at the ICU of Durres Hospital ( no exact information of the anoxic brain time).

After a brief volemic compensation in our ICU, the patient was taken to the operating room. Intraoperatively we found an infrarenal r AAA and gangrene of the sigmoid and left colon. Resection and reconstruction by the interposition of a tube graft were performed, followed by a left large hemicolectomy with temporary colostomy realized by the team of general surgeons. Three months later they performed colorectal-anastomosis as a second step operation.

Postoperatively the patient had a period of 3 weeks stay in the ICU, mostly due to neurological complications after the ischemic stroke, and on January 29 of 2013, she returned to the Service of Neurology at the Hospital of Durres for further neurological rehabilitation. One year later, in the ambulatory routine check, the patient presented full recovery from surgery and a complete central and peripheral neurological rehabilitation.

Conclusions: Ruptured aortic aneurysm with gangrene of the left colon is a very rare and severe combination caused by the hypoperfusion of the inferior mesenteric artery in the presence of hypovolemic shock and insufficient collateral circulation. The strategy of treatment includes fast diagnosis, short hypotensive resuscitation, cell-saving and autotransfusion, and the simplest possible surgical reconstruction for both emergencies.

Nagyvárosok forgalomtechnikai eszközeinek szerepe a terrorizmus elleni küzdelemben
Authors: Gál Erika
Published: August 2021

A tanulmány elsődlegesen a nagyvárosi közúti közlekedés és forgalomtechnikai eszközei, valamint a közúti járművel  elkövetett terrorcselekmények közötti összefüggéseket,  kapcsolatokat teszi vizsgálat tárgyává. Az alapvető fogalmi  meghatározások mellett két dimenzióban veszi górcső alá a  forgalomtechnika terrorizmus elleni védekezésben is  funkcionalitással bíró eszközeit: egyrészt a kiemelten és  állandó jelleggel védett objektumok, másrészt pedig a  nagyvárosokban ideiglenesen védett helyszínek  szemszögéből. Annak érdekében, hogy egy-egy cselekmény  elkövetéséhez használt járművek jelleg szerinti kategorizálását is elvégezhessük, az elmúlt évek járműtípusra és a terrorcselekmény halálos áldozataira  vonatkozó európai statisztikai adatokat is feldolgozzuk. A  vizsgálat lefolytatását követően a tanulmány kísérletet tesz a forgalomtechnika eszközeinek – rendészeti és építészeti  szempontokat is figyelembe vevő – szakszerű elhelyezésére, vonatkozó javaslatok megfogalmazására.

A tanulmány célja a professzionalizmus elméleti keretrendszerének áttekintése. Arra törekszik, hogy a  rendőri professzionalizmust elhelyezze a professzióelméletek között. A professzionalizmust olyan sajátos szakmai és társadalmi érték jellemez, amely egyfajta különleges elhivatottságot feltételez, és fő jellemzője a szaktudás, a felelősségtudat és a  csapatszellem, bajtársiasság. A rendészeti stratégiák között is találkozhatunk a professzionalizmus és hatékonyság fejlesztésének gondolatával. A szakirodalmat áttekintve kirajzolódik, hogy a rendőri professzionalizmus beilleszkedik a segítő szakmák profiljába, és elengedhetetlen eleme a szakszerű munkavégzésnek.
A kábítószer-bűnözés aktuális kérdései nemzetközi kitekintésben
Authors: Nagy Ivett
Published: August 2021

A kábítószer-bűnözés egyik fontos jellemzője, hogy nincsen sértettje a bűncselekményeknek, és ezzel még inkább  megnehezül a hatóságok munkája. Az Európai Unió más  tagállamaiban is ezzel a kihívással kell szembenéznie a  nyomozó hatóságoknak, így arra fókuszáltam, hogy milyen  lehetőségek állnak a tagállamok rendelkezésére, hogy  eredményes legyen a nyomozásuk. A hangsúlyt a nemzetközi együttműködésre, rendőrségi információcserére, műveleti együttműködésre, valamint a  szervezett bűnözés elleni küzdelemre helyeztem. A  kutatásom során interjúkat készítettem az osztrák  társhatóságokkal, kutattam az Europol szerepét (kérdőíves  kutatás), majd az eddig feltárt eredmények tükrében, az  amerikai szövetségi ügynökségekkel, továbbá az Egyesült  Nemzetek Szervezete Kábítószer-ellenőrzési és  Bűnmegelőzési Hivatalával is felvettem a kapcsolatot. Célom, hogy a megállapított eredményekkel a gyakorlatban alkalmazható, a szakma számára releváns  megoldásokkal szolgáljak.
A fiatalkorú bűnelkövetők körében leggyakrabban előforduló pszichiátriai kórképek
Authors: Bellavics Mária Zsóka
Published: August 2021

A bűnelkövetés és a pszichés állapot kapcsolata régóta foglalkoztatja a tudományos világot. Az utóbbi időben  számos tanulmány születik, amelyeknek célja, hogy  felderítse a bűncselekmények alakulásában az esetlegesen  fennálló pszichiátriai zavarok szerepét. Ennek a  kapcsolatnak a tanulmányozása a fiatalkorú bűnelkövetők  körében különösen fontos, hiszen a gyermek-, illetve  serdülőkor mind a bűnözői karrier és a pszichés kórképek  szempontjából kritikus időszak. Kutatások több pszichiátriai  kórképet azonosítottak, amelyek a normál  populációnál a fiatalkorú bűnelkövetőket jóval nagyobb  arányban érinti. Ezek közül a legnagyobb jelentősége a  diszruptív, impulzuskontroll- és viselkedészavaroknak, a  szerhasználati zavaroknak, a figyelemzavaros  hiperaktivitásnak, a hangulati zavaroknak, bizonyos  pszichotikus kórképeknek, illetve a személyiségfejlődés  egyes zavarainak van. Mivel a pszichiátriai kórképek  megjelenése és lefolyása mind időben, mind pedig az  érintett személyek által produkált tünetek mentén is igen  heterogén, ahhoz, hogy megértsük a természetüket, nem  elegendő az egyes diagnosztikai kategóriákat ismerni,  hanem fontos minél érzékletesebb képet szerezni a  gyakorlatban való megjelenésükről. Ennek azért is van  jelentősége, mert ezek az állapotok sokszor meghatározzák  az abban szenvedőnek az életvitelét,  viselkedését, nagyban alakítják személyiségét, illetve a  szociális környezetére is hatást gyakorolnak, így szerepük  lehet a deviancia alakulásában is. Ennek a tanulmánynak a  célja, hogy a fiatalkorú bűnelkövetőket leggyakrabban  érintő mentális zavarokat, lehetőleg minél gyakorlatiasabban és életszerűbben bemutassa.

Este artigo visa apresentar ao administrador público algumas ferramentas que possibilitem a percepção das capacidades e habilidades do servidor que está sob sua subordinação, fomentando no Administrador Público o mesmo pensamento da iniciativa privada, sabendo que seu fim não é lucro, mas sim, o equilíbrio financeiro e a eficiência dos serviços prestados, evitando, inclusive, retrabalhos. O artigo busca responder a seguinte questão: Que ferramentas de gestão o Administrador Público pode utilizar para descobrir e desenvolver as competências dos seus servidores a fim de aproveitá-las para alcançar maior eficiência nos serviços prestados à população e como recompensá-los por estas competências? Os recursos intelectuais (acadêmicos ou empíricos) no local de atuação do administrador já estão à disposição, desta maneira os gestores públicos ganharão tempo praticidade e celeridade nos processos, e por outro lado, o servidor bem aproveitado terá a sensação de que não estudou ou se especializou à toa, ou mesmo que anos de experiência de nada serviu; se sentirá mais útil agregando valor e possivelmente sendo recompensado. Este artigo iniciará trazendo o significado de cada vocábulo do título; em seguida abordará a teoria da Gestão de Competências, depois algumas ferramentas que o Administrador Público pode lançar mão para descobrir e desenvolver as competências, logo após os meios que podem ser utilizados para recompensar o servidor que adquiriu mais habilidades. Ao final deste trabalho o leitor será capaz de identificar algumas ferramentas de gestão que apresentam as competências de um indivíduo.
Modelling European turtle dove (Streptopelia turtur L. 1758) distribution in the south eastern Iberian Peninsula
Authors: Bermúdez–Cavero A. , Gil–Delgado J. A. , López–Iborra G. M.
Published: August 2021

The European turtle dove population and breeding range has declined sharply in Spain. This study reanalyses data from the Atlas of Breeding Birds in Alicante (SE Spain), aiming to identify the main variables related to its occurrence and abundance. We used hierarchical partitioning analysis to identify important environmental variables associated with natural vegetation, farming, hydrological web, anthropic presence, climate, and topography. Analysis combining the most explicative variables of each group identified the mixture of pines and scrubland in the semiarid areas and the length of unpaved roads as the most important variables with a positive effect on occurrence, while herbaceous crops and scrublands in dry ombrotype climate areas had the most important negative effect. Abundance was related only to the availability of water points. We discuss the implications of these findings for habitat management in conservation of this species.
An Exploration of Grammatical Errors in Written English of Libyan EFL Students with Special Reference to Arabic as their First-Language
Authors: Al Jawad Ahmed Sanoussi Himeda , Mansour Asma Abdalrahman
Published: August 2021

This study focuses on an exploration of grammatical errors in written English of Libyan EFL students with special reference to Arabic as their first language. One of the most important factors that negatively affect EFL students' writing is grammatical errors. Several studies have looked at grammatical errors made by learners of English as a foreign language. Some studies have reported that L1 interference has been indicated as an important factor in the commission of such errors. The current study explores the phenomenon of EFL learners making grammatical errors. It also examines whether the time spent learning English and using English in daily life positively affects a student's writing (fewer grammatical errors appear). In addition, it examines whether first language interference leads to errors by Arab learners in particular. Data was collected from 30 EFL participants studying in Faculty of Arts and Sciences Kufrah- Benghazi University by writing an essay, in English, about the students themselves, their families, and the cities where they live in. The subjects also answered a Grammar Recognition Test. The results of this study indicated that the subjects made 205 errors in 10 different grammatical areas, the highest number of errors found in using articles, the second was word/verb form errors, whereas the third was preposition-related errors. Furthermore, errors of active and passive voice, plural, word order, tense, 3rd person morpheme, and copula “be”. The analysis of these results indicated that the appearance of these errors was more common among learners who have less time learning the language as well as who use the language less in their daily life. Furthermore, the results also revealed that Arab EFL learners tend to translate directly from Arabic to English; in this case, L1 interference appears to be a reason for committing grammatical errors by the Arabs. Moreover, students 'lack of competence in English plays an important role in such an occurrence. The study concludes by giving some suggestions for teaching grammar and reducing the occurrence of errors in this area.

Authors: Sri Indrawanti Annisaa , Mandyartha Eka Prakarsa
Published: August 2021

Nowadays, not all the patient can be hospitalized because of the COVID-19 pandemics. So, the self-quarantine for the patient with the various diseases will be the given solution by the hospital. It would make the hospital needs a system that can monitor the activity and the position of the patient from a distance. Nowadays, mobile phone is equipped by the sensor that can detect the user movement. Not only the user’s position, but also the user’s activity. In this paper, it will be developed an activity and position monitoring system for the self-quarantine patient that can be used in their home. The mobile activity monitoring can be achieved by activity recognition using classification method. For the needs of performance testing, we evaluate some classification method for activity recognition to compare the among classification method for the activity recognition. Some tested classification methods are Naïve Bayes, KNN, KStar and TreeJ48. Furthermore, we tested the impact of sliding windows per N samples taken to the accuracy of the activity recognition. We choose the best N sample that could give the best accuracy for activity recognition. The system not only monitor the patient’s activity, but also the patient’s position. The position monitoring can be achieved using Google Maps API. The result is Naive bayes has the accuracy of 81.25%, KNN has the accuracy of 78.125%, KStar has the accuracy of 78.125% and TreeJ48 has the accuracy of 75%.

People want energy to satisfy their each day needs. However, maximum of those energy customers are now no longer aware that using an electric powered load is too large, which regularly reasons disturbances. In coping with overload disturbances withinside the family sector, MCB is used as a protection tool. The running precept of the MCB continues to be the usage of magnetic, so it's far less effective. When disconnecting the cutting-edge because of overload, the MCB will experience a touch overdue, which could reason sparks and a hearthplace withinside the family. Therefore, on this look at a cutting-edge sensor protection circuit is designed to update the MCB. This circuit can show the cutting-edge cost at the LCD and restriction the overcurrent to a restriction of three amperes. The overload safety machine constructed from the ACS712ELC-5A cutting-edge sensor can come across currents among 0A and 5A. So, to reduce off the cutting-edge, a 12V relay is used. When trying out a ready-made machine, this protection tool can study currents withinside the variety 0A to 3A, with median studying mistakes of 0.65%. If the burden is better than 3A, the machine also can reduce the cutting-edge.
Transnationality and transitionality
Authors: Pinazza Natália 
Published: August 2021

This article examines Sandra Kogut’s The Hungarian Passport (2001) in the light of recent theoretical debates on diasporic and postcolonial filmmaking. It focuses on how Kogut’s displacement—both as the granddaughter of Jewish refugees and a foreigner in France—permeates the structure of the documentary in terms of narrative, visual style, subject matter and theme. In the process, the article addresses questions of transnational cinema in a postcolonial and diasporic context by exploring how the film’s transnational representations interrogate the validity of both national cinema and cultural identity as fixed concepts in contemporary Europe.
Paris, borders and the concept of Europe in Paris, je t’aime and Code Unknown
Authors: Silvey Vivien 
Published: August 2021

Michael Haneke’s Code Unknown and the multi-director Paris, je t’aime belong (the latter at least in part) to a recently emerged cinematic form described as the network form, which represents changing spaces and plural perspectives in multicultural societies. Reflecting Rosalind Galt’s concept of “anti-anti-Eurocentrism”, they represent discursive and referential spaces of Parisian society. Through a comparative analysis of how they frame space with regard to borders and transnational relationships, it becomes apparent that some of the approaches these films take to representing Europe are problematic. In contrast, others encapsulate key concerns surrounding the constantly changing relationships between Europe and its others. While Code Unknown challenges discourses of identity, home and belonging, Paris, je t'aime tends to reinstate and validate divisive social hierarchies despite its appearances of pluralism.
The gendered politics of sex work in Hong Kong cinema
Authors: Marchetti Gina
Published: August 2021

The portrayal of women as prostitutes is common in Hong Kong cinema, and filmmakers have looked at sex work from various perspectives: as a social problem, as an index of women’s economic exploitation more generally, as a way to explore the relationship between economics and sexuality, as a window onto the world of sexual minorities and as erotica. Scriptwriter Elsa Chan, working in conjunction with director Herman Yau, has made two features about women in the Hong Kong sex industry—Whispers and Moans (性工作者十日談, 2007) and True Women for Sale(性工作者2 我不賣身·我賣子宮, 2008)—based on Chan’s anthropological studies of women in the sex industry in Hong Kong. Like their earlier collaboration From the Queen to the Chief Executive (等候董建華發落, 2001), these films look at the “sensational” (youth murders, prostitution) with an eye to understanding and, perhaps, remedying social injustice. In fact, the issue of “justice” and women’s role as exploited victims as well as potential agents of change link Elsa Chan’s scripts to the interests of other women filmmakers currently working in Hong Kong. Whispers and Moans and True Women for Sale offer a critical perspective on the circulation of women across borders and gesture toward a feminist intervention into the shadow economy between transnational capitalism and the socialist marketplace in China.
Girlhood, postfeminism and contemporary female art-house authorship
Authors: Handyside Fiona
Published: August 2021

Both Sofia Coppola and Mia Hansen-Løve’s first three films can be understood as trilogies of female coming of age. These are thematic or conceptual trilogies, declared as such after the fact by their directors, and thus a self-conscious declaration of authorial agency, but the trilogy itself is not given a definitive name. This article explores the complex position these trilogies thus occupy. On the one hand, they testify to the impact of feminist activism and theorising on filmmaking, as they demonstrate the creative power and autonomy of the postfeminist auteur. On the other, they concentrate on narrow, girlish worlds, and remain marked by hesitancy and containment, demonstrating the persistent restrictions for women within postfeminist cultural norms.
Femininity, ageing and performativity in the work of Amy Heckerling

Published: August 2021

In this article we evaluate the relevance of 3D visualisation as a research tool for the history of cinemagoing. How does the process of building a 3D model of cinema theatres relate to what we already know about this history? In which ways does the modelling process allow for the synthesis of different types of archived cinema heritage assets? To what extent does this presentation of ‚Äúcontent in context‚Äù helps us to better understand the history of film consumption? We will address these questions via a discussion of a specific case study, our visualisation of Jean Desmet‚Äôs Amsterdam Cinema Parisien theatre, one of the first permanent cinemas of the Dutch capital. First, we reflect on 3D as a research tool, outlining its technology and methodological principles and its usefulness for research into the historiography of moviegoing. Then we describe our 3D visualisation of Cinema Parisien, discussing the process of researching and building the model. Finally, we evaluate the result against the existing knowledge about the history of cinemagoing in Amsterdam and of this cinema theatre in particular, and answer the question to what extent 3D as a research tool can aid our understanding of the history of cinema consumption.
The feminist cinema of Joanna Hogg
Authors: Barrett Ciara
Published: August 2021

In this article, I provide a scholarly introduction to the cinema of contemporary British director Joanna Hogg that stands in direct contravention to existing auteurist and concomitantly phallogocentric critical discourses on her work. Thus I establish an alternative, feminist theoretical framework for analysis of Hogg’s films, synthesising feminist and structuralist methodologies. Via close textual analysis of each of Hogg’s three feature films, emphasising their implicit critique of phallogocentric narrativisation vis-à-vis the deployment of certain “melodramatic” conventions, I argue that the director creates a filmic space both literal and conceptual for “the female”. Significantly, this contravenes the inherently phallogocentric theoretical framework by which auteurist film criticism has (up until now) largely attempted to “package” Hogg’s work. I thus conclude the cinema of Joanna Hogg represents a subversive challenge to phallogocentric metanarrative, within which auteurist film criticism has traditionally been imbricated.
African women of the screen at the digital turn
Authors: Ellerson Beti
Published: August 2021

When I conceptualised the Sisters of the Screen project as a book and film, I envisioned an “imagined community” of kindred spirits, a “sisterhood” where the screen was their ultimate point of convergence. The screen is where their images are read; whether it’s a movie screen, television set, video monitor, computer screen, tablet or mobile phone, for a director, producer, film festival organiser, actor, critic or spectator the screen is the ultimate site where the moving image is viewed, interpreted and understood.

With the phenomenal development of screen culture as a result of the digital turn, I return to the “screen” as a conceptual framework that integrates screen media, and their associated devices and technologies; hence, the concept “African women of the screen” as the organising principle. This report examines the impact of the digital turn on African women of the screen, how their cinematic gaze has evolved, developed and transformed with the evolution of new technologies such as the Internet and, in particular, the emergence of social media.
New cinema history and the comparative mode
Authors: Biltereyst Daniel , Meers Philippe
Published: August 2021

Within the new cinema history perspective, the call for more systematic comparative research has been high on the agenda for some time. The recent proliferation of studies on various aspects of film exhibition and cinemagoing creates an enormous potential for data to be integrated and compared, larger patterns to be discovered, and hypotheses to be tested. This article maintains that the work done so far is largely monocentric in the sense that most studies focus on very specific local practices and experiences, often concentrating on film exhibition and audience experiences in particular cities, neighbourhoods or venues. The contribution argues that, similarly to what happened in other disciplines, a comparative perspective might be helpful in trying to understand larger trends, factors or conditions explaining differences and similarities in cinema cultures. After a discussion on the (underdeveloped) comparative mode within film studies in general, this methodological and partly self-reflective essay will go into some of the challenges of doing comparative research on film exhibition and moviegoing. Concentrating on these issues, different levels and modes of comparative research are discussed and illustrated by using data and insights from various historical studies on cinema cultures.

Narrative modes of cinemagoing memories
Authors: Haake Susanne
Published: August 2021

This article focuses on the results of my research project on cinemagoing heritage, concluding with the development of a matrix to analyse and categorise cinemagoing memories. What cinemagoing recollections come into the minds of the subjects in retrospect, and in what manner are these memories communicated? I explored the forms of how cinemagoing in the 1930s‚Äì1950s is remembered by eyewitnesses today. After seven to eight decades, the social habit of going to the cinema still occupies an important place in the collective memory of elderly people, particularly in rural communities. As my method of survey I chose the narrative video; I then plotted these memories on a map to categorise them.
