Published: September 2022

Introduction: Papillary Glioneuronal Tumor (PGNT) is a grade I tumor based on the new World Health Organization CNS tumor classification. Its special feature concerns its biphasic histologic pattern of both glial and neuronal elements. Because of the rarity of this entity, literature is mostly based on case reports. Research Question: The objective of this paper is to display our experience treating endoscopically a papillary glioneuronal tumor located into the third ventricle in an adult patient and to highlight the main points of the literature. Material & Methods: A 75-year-old patient with known Parkinson disease presented with episodes of loss of consciousness and gait disorders in our institution. Brain MRI demonstrated enlargement of ventricular system due to an obstruction caused by an intraventricular tumor in the third ventricle. Results: Patient underwent an endoscopic subtotal removal of the tumor. Postoperative brain CT scan revealed minor residual of the tumor and patient was discharged 2 days after surgery in good clinical condition. Histopathological analysis of the tumor samples matched the diagnosis of PGNT. Postoperative follow-up in 1 month demonstrated great neurological improvement. Discussion & Conclusion: Literature reports that total surgical resection is the treatment of choice in almost all cases of PGNT giving the most favorable clinical outcome. Only 4 cases of PGNT located in 3rd ventricle have been recorded and data for endoscopic management found only for one of the cases concerning a pediatric patient. Therefore, we report for first time removal of third ventricle papillary glioneuronal tumor in adult patients via the endoscopic technique.
ECOLOGICALLY FRIENDLY BIO-REDUCTION OF GRAPHENE OXIDE BY STAPHYLOCOCCUS WARNERI
Authors: AL-HILLI Zina Bakir
Published: September 2022

This study demonstrates for the first time that the cell-free filtrate of Staphylococcus warneri bacteria can reduce Graphene Oxide (GO). A number of techniques were used to characterize the bio-reduced graphene oxide (BrGO); via the UV-Vis absorbency, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses. The UV-Vis peak of absorption was around 270 nm. In SEM images, thin, wrinkled nanosheets layered on top of one another were seen. In the FTIR spectra, the distinct peaks relating to oxygen-containing functional groups diminished, whereas the hydroxyl, alkoxy, epoxy, and O-H deformation peaks totally vanished. According to XRD analysis, the peak of diffraction at 2θ= 24° corresponded to a d-spacing of around 0.36 nm. GO sheets have been effectively reduced using the S. warneri bacterium's cell-free filtrate. This method is ecologically friendly, excludes the poisonous reagents usage, cost-effective, besides offering an alternate-safe technique for a suitable graphene production to be applied in biomedical applications.

Authors: ARIF Ghassan Ezzulddin
Published: September 2022

In this paper, we presented three mathematical models to calculate the amount of radon concentration in water which is considered a poisonous gas. two of these models are established by numerical methods, which are the Neville method and the Spline method. The graph approach is used to create the third model. It is notable that the current study is original and having a novelty as it has created for the first time three mathematical methods to calculate radon gas concentrations in water; as well as it is the first study that has applied the numerical methods to carry out the calculations. the results obtained from these methods are compared with previous studies and then finding the error rates. After that, we have made a comparison between these three models to obtain the best one. Since the error rate is slightly lower than the Neville method so the Spline method is the best of the three methods that we worked with.

Published: September 2022

The article substantiates the management of the humidity and temperature regime of greenhouse complexes on the basis of a scenario-synergetic approach. The scenarios for controlling the temperature and humidity conditions in the greenhouse using the approach of fuzzy neural networks are formed. The structure of an automated control system for technological processes is developed, which provides automated collection and processing of information for the implementation of control actions in order to improve the efficiency of the greenhouse complex on the basis of a scenario-synergetic approach. The corresponding fuzzy neural networks are synthesized for a synergistic assessment of the interaction of technological parameters. Estimation of the root-mean-square error in the synthesis of fuzzy neural networks confirms the possibility of their use for the synergistic formation of scenarios for controlling the temperature and humidity regime in greenhouses to reveal the presence of a synergistic effect. Production rules for scenario management of temperature and humidity conditions are formed. It is shown that the use of fuzzy neural networks for the formation of scenarios for controlling the humidity and temperature regime provides the possibility of obtaining the appropriate scenarios for making managerial decisions and their prompt correction.

Growth and inclusion trajectories of Colombian functional territories
Authors: Fergusson Leopoldo , Hiller Tatiana , Ibáñez Ana María
Published: September 2022

We describe the patterns of economic growth and social progress in Colombian “functional territories”. Unlike political/administrative divisions that emerge at least partly for historical reasons unrelated to economic interactions, functional territories reflect the patterns of spatial agglomeration and economic interactions in a territory. Using a novel definition of functional territories, our analysis reveals significant fragmentation of economic interactions: close to 66% of municipalities (holding about 20% of the country’s population) have no significant links to neighboring areas. A set of comparatively more (but still only partially) integrated and more populous municipalities have stronger links between them. This “rural-urban” space holds just around 31% of total population. The rest of Colombians are in “urban” or “Metropolitan” highly-populated and more integrated clusters. We describe these territories along two dimensions: economic growth or “dynamism” and progress in social indicators or “inclusion”. To do so we propose a simple conceptual framework that organizes the diverse inputs that might help boost these outcomes. Larger and more urbanized agglomerations exhibit visible advantages in these inputs. Moreover, long-run institutional determinants best help differentiate territories. Consistent with this, larger and more urbanized agglomerations have better outcomes, especially when measuring economic activity. Also, more dynamic places tend to be the more inclusive ones, even though recent improvements in dynamism do not correlate with improvements in inclusion.
Internal Migration and Convergence in Mexico 2000-2010
Authors: Cazzuffi Chiara , Pereira-López Mariana
Published: September 2022

This paper investigates whether internal migration has long-term effects on conditional convergence across functional territories in Mexico. Using an instrumental variable approach, we find that controlling for net migration inflows increases the convergence term, which indicates that migration flows reduce convergence among functional territories. Furthermore, when we interact migration inflows with initial income in our growth equations, appropriately instrumenting migration, our results show that migration flows lead to lower growth on average, and they also have a divergent effect, since growth is faster in territories that exhibit higher migration inflows along with a higher initial income. Moreover, there appears to be heterogeneity across the territory growth distribution, which could be an indicator of clubs convergence.

Procesos ambientales: deforestación y actividades productivas en los valles del Oeste de La Rioja y Catamarca desde mediados del siglo XIX
Authors: Rojas Juan
Published: September 2022

En el oeste de La Rioja y Catamarca, se produjo una creciente explotación forestal desde mediados de siglo XIX, motorizada por actividades emergentes como el auge de la minería metalífera, la llegada del ferrocarril y la demanda -mayoritariamente extrarregional- de productos madereros provenientes del bosque nativo. Estos procesos no habían sido trabajados, en estos territorios, desde perspectivas que buscaran integrar las problemáticas socio-ambientales derivadas de un uso intensivo del bosque nativo con las discusiones sobre la actividad minera y ferroviaria de aquel periodo. De forma más general, los debates sobre desarrollo regional alcanzan a las problemáticas ambientales, como la deforestación, casi exclusivamente en ensayos y obras literarias.

Composição, tradução, colonialidade
Authors: Kurz Giovani Tridapalli
Published: September 2022

Propõe-se aqui uma leitura de “Composing the other” [Compor o outro], ensaio do crítico e teórico da tradução André Lefevere, que integra o volume Post-colonial translation (1999), editado por Susan Bassnett e Harish Trivedi. Neste ensaio, Lefevere retoma a tradução como composição de um espaço comum entre culturas — espaço que se complexifica quando há entre essas culturas relações de dominação do tipo colonial. A partir do ensaio, busca-se sistematizar as principais rotas do pensamento de Lefevere sobre o gesto tradutório. Retomam-se, para além do pensamento do belga, as ideias apresentadas por Antoine Berman em “De la translation à la traduction” (1988), enfatizando a historização que Berman faz dos estudos da tradução, a partir da qual é possível perceber genealogias análogas para gestos distintos. Por fim, diante da impossibilidade do fechamento, propõe-se um diálogo de André Lefevere com Walter Mignolo e Freya Schiwy, de modo a acrescentar a essa estruturação móvel da ideia de tradução — ancorada na fundação de cosmovisões — a dimensão da diferença colonial.
A Toast to the Damned Waiting for Tomorrow: Hauntology and Mourning for a Future that never Comes
Authors: Coelho Neto Walter Ferreira
Published: September 2022

Drawing on Berardi (2011), and Hägglund (2008), Mark Fisher (2009; 2014;2021) posits two pillars upon which his thoughts on history and philosophy are built; the first, what is called a slow cancellation of the future, or in a general sense, how the XX century more than simply casting its shadows over the XXIst, it never really ended. For Fisher, this is due to an ongoing deflation of people’s expectations regarding what is yet to come and a cultural nostalgic turn. Here, nostalgia as Jameson proposed it should be seen more as an attachment to old techniques and formulas than to a psychological state. The second pillar reads Derrida’s hauntology as a failed morning which in Fisher’s work appears linked to the ghosts of a future that never took place. A future of possibilities dreamt during labor and civil rights movements but that ended up being crushed by neoliberal policies. Thus, hauntology and the cancellation of the future as seen in Fisher, and Berardi will be the tools through which this article will analyze Hideo Kojima’s 2019 game Death Stranding, as well as its homonymous novelization (2021) by Hitori Nojima.
O DESEJO NOS TEMPOS DE LIQUIDEZ: notas sobre o amor e o erotismo na modernidade das expressões sólidas
Authors: Lopes Silvia Cristianne Nava , Lopes Anne Caroline Nava
Published: September 2022

O presente trabalho visa explicitar o sentido da articulação conflitiva proposta por Zygmunt Bauman entre desejo e amor. Para empreender esta análise, o fio condutor utilizado é o conceito de “amor líquido”. Nesse aspecto, o objetivo principal é confrontar as concepções de positividade do amor romântico e desconstruir a composição do desejo pela reflexividade de Bauman de sua constituição fluídica e rasa nas relações eróticas. Para tanto, a reflexão espelha-se sobre concepções literárias enquanto projeções das experiências humanas. Esta análise centra-se, principalmente, na sociologia das emoções, compreendendo o amor como uma prática social, mas vivenciada como sentimento atrelado a alteridade, o que exige uma ancoragem na teoria filosófica pautada nas correlações teóricas de Deleuze e Guattari sobre o desejo como edificante, construtor e engrenagem em movimento.
Amor de verdade e de mentira
Authors: Viotti Fernando Baião
Published: September 2022

Mais que apenas representar o real, o objeto literário estabelece com a realidade um diálogo de mão dupla, criando sentidos e propondo modos de ver e viver até então inauditos no mundo concreto. Uma das mais complexas construções do gênero é o “amor romântico”, discutida aqui a partir das relações entre um obscuro romance brasileiro publicado em 1955 e os estudos de Norbert Elias e Lacan sobre o cancioneiro medieval.
