Broadway in Hollywood: film producer David O. Selznick and his theatrical ties in the 1940s
Authors: Hain Milan
Published: December 2023

This article examines the theatrical activities and connections of famed Hollywood film producer David O. Selznick. Based on a study of archival materials and articles in the contemporary U.S. press, the author reconstructs Selznick's relationship to the theatre and argues that it was characterised by ambiguity. On the one hand, the producer used the theatre as a source of acting talent and a training ground for honing the skills of his contract actors; on the other hand, the theatre represented a burden in terms of time and financial resources, and its positive impact on Selznick's business and creative activities was limited, given its relatively modest audience appeal, especially compared to the mass appeal of mainstream Hollywood cinema.
Systém a metody : některé aspekty přenosu Stanislavského systému do Spojených států
Authors: Hančil Jan
Published: December 2023

Studie se zaměřuje na přenesení Stanislavského systému do Spojených států prostřednictvím emigrantů z různých souborů a tří emigračních vln a na působení první generace amerických hereckých pedagogů inspirovaných postupy, které emigranti v první polovině 20. století americkým studentům předávali. Autor ve studii shrnuje jak fakta, která jsou dobře známa (například působení American Laboratory Theatre či Group Theatre), tak méně známé linie přenosu formou působení jednotlivých pedagogů, kteří zakládali vlastní herecká studia či školy. Akcentuje vliv Vachtangova, především pozdní fáze jeho divadelních výzkumů, a hlavní problematický moment americké tradice v linii Stanislavského, a sice důraz na užívání emocionální paměti, kterou jako zvláštní druh cvičení prosazoval hlavně Lee Strasberg.
La Protección de los sectores marítimo y portuario : amenazas y respuestas consideradas por la Organización Marítima International
Authors: Ordás Jiménez Santiago , Bazán García Isidro , Santalices Fernández Ramiro
Published: December 2023

La importancia estratégica y económica de los sectores marítimo y portuario para el comercio internacional es evidente. Cerca del 90 % de las mercancías del comercio mundial se transportan por mar.
Si los aviones fueron las "armas" utilizadas en la masacre del 11-S; los trenes fueron instrumentalizados el 11-M, y los autobuses, el 7-J; a nadie con una cierta capacidad de análisis se le escapa que los buques pueden ser utilizados como objetivos o como medios de una acción criminal a gran escala, especialmente contra los puertos y las poblaciones de sus entornos.
La piratería es otra de las acciones criminales que más preocupan a los operadores marítimos. Cada año se cometen cientos de ataques piratas en aguas de todo el mundo. África, América de Sur, el océano Índico, el mar de China Meridional y el estrecho de Malaca son puntos que provocan inquietud en las tripulaciones de los buques mercantes que navegan por sus aguas.
La presente obra nos presenta las amenazas que se ciernen sobre estos sectores, así como las respuestas auspiciadas por la Organización Marítima Internacional, en el marco jurídico internacional, que son potenciadas en nuestro entorno por la Unión Europea y que recientemente han sido adaptadas a escala nacional. El objetivo básico de este texto es que sirva de ayuda a los prestadores de servicios de protección, tanto públicos como privados.

Jurisprudence of the State Administrative Court in the Development of State Administrative Law
Authors: Syawaludin  , Arif Wibowo
Published: December 2023

The State Administrative Court is a judicial body that has absolute authority to examine and resolve disputes in the field of state administration. The development of the jurisprudence of the State Administrative Court (Peratun) is indispensable for the development of state administrative law. The issues studied are the role of jurisprudence in the field of state administrative law and the role of the State Administrative Court in providing access to justice. The method used in this study is library research, namely research whose object of study uses library data in the form of books as a data source. The Supreme Court has made efforts to strengthen jurisprudence so that it can support the development of administrative law. The judge's decision is needed as a source of law. This is because it stems from dynamic legal dispute resolution. Then, jurisprudence can bring social change to society. The judge's decision-making process is also faster than the law-making process. The absolute competence of the wider State Administrative Court can provide easy access to justice where the public can submit complaints about factual actions of the Government in the field of public law. Jurisprudence as a source of law is needed to develop state administrative law by taking into account the development of society, social conditions, legal and political conditions. Jurisprudence produces general principles of good governance so that they can be used to administer government wisely

Authors: Diantika Chayani  , Arif Wibowo
Published: December 2023

The Constitutional Court was formed to guarantee the constitution as the highest law so that it can be upheld. The position of the Constitutional Court in the Indonesian constitutional system is as a state institution that carries out a judicial function in the competence of the object of constitutional cases. The existence of the Constitutional Court as guardian of the existing constitution in Indonesia is to strengthen the foundations of constitutionalism in the 1945 constitution with the aim of upholding law and justice. The main authority of the Constitutional Court is to review laws against the 1945 Constitution which is commonly known as judicial review. Another authority of the Constitutional Court, as an effort to structuring the relationship between state institutions and democratic institutions based on the principle of the rule of law. The Constitutional Court is also the interpreter of the constitution which is final and has a function as guardian of the constitution. So the decisions of the Constitutional Court as one of the higher institutions in Indonesia must consider democratic values and the constitutional rights of citizens or human rights (HAM) with the aim of upholding a fair law for all people.

Peace In Islam In The Light Of The Holy Quran And Hadith
Authors: Nasir Hassan Wani
Published: December 2023

Islam is a peaceful, merciful, tolerant, and most kind religion. It is a divine religion. To advance and defend justice and peace, it confronts every cruelty, violence, and viciousness. The goal of the entire Islamic ethical system is to uphold society's overall state of peace, safety, and happiness. This code emphasizes unity and all righteous actions that promote peace and forbids any action that promote violence. Therefore, if the society's members follow Islamic ethics, they will surely experience peace, safety, and satisfaction. All Islamic moral principles result in a better individual who is an upright human being who possesses the admirable qualities of honesty, justice, courage, generosity, patience, and kindness. For Muslims and non-Muslims alike, justice and peace are necessary and important in all circumstances, whether one is joyful and satisfied or disturbed and dissatisfied. This paper focuses on how the holy Qur’an and the traditions of Prophet of Islam (PBUH) teach its followers to obey and uphold the divine laws so that everyone in the society feels safe and comfortable and also educate them to be kind and to like for others as wishes for themselves so that everyone in the society benefits. This paper concludes with the argument that Islam seeks to construct the ideal human society and brotherhood, spreading all-around goodness and divine direction among people for their benefit and betterment.

Authors: Tambari Ishaka , Aliyu Mustapha , Sulaiman Bello
Published: December 2023

Substance abuse is among the major issues affecting schools and education in Nigeria. Many substances affect the mind and whole body of youngsters negatively leading to hospitalizations, school drop-outs, absenteeism and other effects that affect education at whole. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of substance abuse on cognitive potential of some schooling youngsters in Gwadabawa, Sokoto State Nigeria. 15 young people that abuse substances and are attending schools, and 15 normal people in Gwadabawa, Sokoto state, Nigeria were recruited in this work and were assessed with Montreal cognitive Assessment standard methods to evaluate the cognitive domain of the participants. The result reveals substance abusers scored 357 ± 7.0, while 396.0 ± 10.0 was scored by non-substance abusers; indicating that substance abusers show comparatively lower cognitive ability compared to the control youngsters enrolled in this work. The results indicate that the substances been abused by the young people reduce their cognitive ability (a prelude of cognitive domain of the participants of the study) and in turn could inflict their academic performances as well. Thus, it is pertinent to help young ones shun substances through awareness creation, counselling, strict laws, drug education and relations.

Stromal and Epithelial Architectural Alterations Mimicking Invasion (Pseudoinvasion) in Noninvasive Papillary Urothelial Carcinoma
Authors: Abulaban Amr , Yanchenko Natalia , Briski Laurence M. , Punnen Sanoj , Jorda Merce , Kryvenko Oleksandr N.
Published: December 2023

Context.—

Retraction artifact, paradoxic maturation/differentiation, desmoplasia, and complex irregular growth are morphologic criteria of invasion in urothelial carcinoma.

Objective.—

To describe changes mimicking invasion in noninvasive papillary urothelial carcinoma (NPUC).

Design.—

We reviewed 159 consecutive in-house patients with NPUC for either the presence of pseudoinvasion (irregular carcinoma nests within dense hyalinized stroma in the absence of other criteria of invasion) or precursor findings (stromal hyalinization not yet associated with epithelial architectural alteration). We assessed the correlation of these findings with age, sex, evidence of peripheral vascular disease, tumor grade, tumor infarction, and tumor size. We then followed up the patients clinically for tumor recurrence or progression.

Results.—

We identified 233 separate NPUCs (136 high grade and 97 low grade) in 125 men and 34 women. Of the 233 tumors, 26 (11.2%) had pseudoinvasion and 24 of 233 tumors (10.3%) had precursor findings. Except for complex irregular growth, no other criteria for invasion were seen. Pseudoinvasion and precursor findings were more common in men (47 of 183 [26%] versus 3 of 50 [6%]; P = .003), larger tumors (mean size, 2.6 versus 1.2 cm; P < .001), and tumors with infarction (33 of 50 [66%] versus 29 of 183 [15.8%]; P < .001). In multivariable analysis, tumor size (odds ratio, 1.49; P =.006), male sex (odds ratio, 6.48; P = .007), and the presence of infarction (odds ratio, 6.59; P < .001) were significant variables. Recurrence rates did not differ between patients with and those without pseudoinvasion (31% [5 of 16] versus 42% [45 of 107], respectively; P = .41). None of the tumors with pseudoinvasion progressed to invasive carcinoma.

Conclusions.—

Given the correlation with size and presence of infarcted papillae, we suggest the possibility of tumor ischemia/infarction as a plausible etiology of pseudoinvasion. Awareness of this phenomenon is important for the accurate diagnosis of invasion in papillary urothelial carcinoma.
Necrotizing Fasciitis of the Upper Extremity: A Systematic Review of the Literature
Authors: Bilolikar Vivek , Rengifo Santiago , Desai Kaushal , Hozack Bryan
Published: December 2023

Objectives

Through this review, we sought to accomplish two goals: 1) analyze and synthesize the published case reports on upper extremity necrotizing fasciitis and 2) identify any trends in the diagnosis and treatment of upper extremity necrotizing fasciitis.

Methods

Studies included in this systematic review were conducted per PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines with the following eligibility criteria: (1) single case or limited case series, (2) established diagnosis of necrotizing fasciitis in the hand, wrist, or forearm, (3) English language publication.

Results

Most of the patients in this review (38, (70.37%)) presented with an inciting injury. A minority of patients had other associated co-morbidities independent of injury, including Diabetes Mellitus, immunosuppression, and IV drug use. The most common infectious agents were gram-positive cocci, identified in 32 (59.26%) cases, followed by gram-negative bacilli in 21 (38.89%) cases. The most common pathogen was Group A streptococcus (GAS), reported in 15 (27.78%) cases, followed by Vibrio vulnificus in 6 (11.11%) cases. Most patients were managed with empiric antibiotic treatment. Fifty patients (92.6%) reported surgical intervention and 45 (83.3%) had at least one debridement. Most patients in the cases reviewed had either no or minimal long-term sequelae following their infection.

Conclusion

Early recognition of the signs and symptoms of necrotizing fasciitis is imperative to avoid loss of limb and/or death. Further, aggressive management with empiric antibiotic coverage and rapid surgical intervention improves outcomes in patients with necrotizing fasciitis of the upper extremity.
Capitellum Fracture: Surgical Exposure and Fixation Strategies
Authors: Ramtin Sina , Ilyas Asif M.
Published: December 2023

Fractures of the capitellum are uncommon, often accompanied by radial head or lateral collateral ligament injuries, and typically treated operatively. Operative fixation is often technically challenging due to limited surgical windows, limited bone stock for fixation, its articular nature, and fracture extension into the trochlea or condyles. The goal of treatment is stable internal fixation to permit an early range of motion. Aside from open reduction internal fixation (ORIF), alternative treatment options include fragment excision and arthroscopic assisted reduction and fixation. Here we detail our preferred approach to treat capitellum fractures, including, preoperative planning, surgical anatomy, surgical setup and technique utilizing a posterior utility incision and olecranon osteotomy, postoperative care, and avoidance of potential complications.

Published: December 2023

Objectives

The incidence of femoral periprosthetic fractures (PPF) is rising. Vancouver type C PPFs compromise the majority type of fracture associated with high complication rates. The complexity of Vancouver C-type PPFs lies in the presence of the femoral stem in the proximal fracture fragment. This study compares the biomechanical performance of four plate fixation configurations to repair Vancouver type C periprosthetic femur fractures.

Methods

Six large adult 4th generation biomechanical low-density femur Sawbones instrumented with cemented femoral stems were used to conduct this study. A comminuted Vancouver-type C PPF was simulated and fixed with a plate. Four proximal fragment construct configurations were studied with combinations of unicortical screws, bicortical screws, and cerclage cable fixation. Constructs were loaded in axial compression and four-point bending, and the stiffness was calculated.

Results

Constructs with bicortical screw fixation had significantly greater stiffness than those with unicortical screw and cerclage cable fixation in axial and four-point bending loads. Constructs with cerclage cable and unicortical screw fixation had greater stiffness than ones with unicortical screw fixation.

Conclusion

Using bicortical screws in the proximal construct of Vancouver type C PPFs increases construct stiffness in axial and bending loads. Though controversial, using cerclage cables might have a place for construct augmentation when using only unicortical screws or a combination of unicortical and bicortical screws.

Published: December 2023

Objectives

This study aimed to present the short-term outcomes of tibiotalar joint arthrodesis using the Shotel ankle arthrodesis nail system.

Methods

10 patients underwent ankle arthrodesis using the new nail system between 2021 and 2022 due to advanced arthritis. Patients were followed up for a mean of nine months. Outcomes were assessed using metrics such as radiographic union, pain, and patient-reported outcomes questionnaires. We explained a stepwise description of a novel technique for isolated tibiotalar ankle arthrodesis using a curved nail. We also presented our postoperative protocol, including weight-bearing and rehabilitation protocol.

Results

The union rate was 100% after a mean time of nine months of follow-up. There were no complications related to the hardware requiring revision or removal. Pain was measured with a visual analog scale and improved from a mean of 6.7 to 4.2.

Conclusion

Patients undergoing tibiotalar arthrodesis using the Shotel nail have acceptable outcomes. Considering this technique as a minimally invasive intervention, we believe that soft tissue complications are less than conventional open techniques.

Bibliometric and Qualitative Analysis of Workload Studies in the Maritime Sector
Authors: ARSLAN Elif , PAKER Serim
Published: December 2023

Maritime traffic is a socio-technical system that requires the collaboration of many elements such as stakeholders, equipment, environment, and technology. The workload for stakeholders in marine traffic has increased due to the growing number of monitored ships in coastal areas, as well as the variety and amount of operations. This study aims to conduct a comprehensive analysis of workload studies conducted in the maritime domain, encompassing all stakeholders. In doing so, the goal is to reveal changes over the years, identify collaborative areas, and enhance the understanding of the concept. The Scopus and Web of Science (WoS) databases were used as the data collection tool. A search was conducted with keywords associated with the concept of 'workload in maritime,' leading to the analysis of 372 relevant documents. VOSviewer Bibliometric Data Analysis Tool and MAXQDA Analytics Pro 22 Software were employed in the analyses. After the data from the two databases were combined, it was found that the authors with the most publications (P) and citations (C) in this field are Murai K. (P-41; C-200), Hayashi Y. (P-30; C-196), and Okazaki T. (P-15; C-82). With 56 publications, Japan is in first place, followed by the US (39), China (35), and the UK (27). Additionally, Japan and the US are two countries in collaboration. Among the commonly used terms in this research are mental workload, vessel, safety, performance, human factors, tiredness, simulator, and physiological measuring techniques including heart rate, nasal temperature, EEG, and salivary amylase. In workload studies, psychosocial variables were most prominently expressed in 2021. While the analysis of workload studies indicates a focus on “mental workload” studies involving Vessel Traffic Services Operators (VTSOs), research related to seafarers, cadets, marine pilots, and ship masters is seen to dominate this field which is “bridge team”.
PERANCANGAN PROGRAM ANALISA DAYA DUKUNG DAN PERENCANAAN PONDASI TELAPAK BERDASARKAN SNI 2847:2013
Authors: Jaelani Fajar Syiar , Syafier Siegfried
Published: December 2023

Pondasi telapak memiliki peran penting dalam mengalurkan beban dari struktur bangunan ke lapisan tanah di bawahnya. Untuk memastikan kekuatan dan keselamatan pondasi telapak, diperlukan analisis daya dukung dan perencanaan yang teliti. Namun, metode manual dalam melakukan analisis daya dukung dan perencanaan pondasi telapak pada bangunan gedung dapat memakan waktu yang lama dan memiliki risiko kesalahan manusia. Dalam upaya mengatasi hal tersebut, dikembangkanlah program analisa daya dukung dan perencanaan pondasi telapak berdasarkan SNI 2847:2013. Program ini merupakan solusi berbasis web yang bertujuan untuk mendukung proses analisis dan perencanaan pondasi telapak dalam proyek konstruksi. Dengan mengacu pada standar nasional Indonesia (SNI) yang mengatur persyaratan untuk beton struktural bangunan, program ini mengimplementasikan metode perhitungan Terzaghi dan Mayerhof. Hasil validasi yang dilakukan menunjukkan bahwa selisih antara perhitungan manual dan menggunakan program hanya sekitar 0,0002, yang utamanya disebabkan oleh pembulatan angka. Hal ini mengindikasikan tingkat keakuratan yang tinggi dalam program ini. Diharapkan bahwa program ini dapat menjadi alat yang efektif dan efisien dalam mendukung perencanaan pondasi telapak yang sesuai dengan standar keselamatan dan peraturan yang berlaku

Every person has the right and legal right to obtain health services, and the public is free to utilize government and/or regional government health resources. The organization of hospital administration services, medical services, supporting services, and nursing services, both inpatient and outpatient must be provided at a minimum by the hospital, by regional hospital service standards. This type of research is normative juridical research, that is, it is studied using a statutory approach, meaning that a problem will be seen from its legal aspect by examining statutory regulations. Based on Number 44 of 2009 concerning Hospitals, hospitals are legally responsible for all losses incurred due to negligence committed by health workers at the hospital. The hospital's legal responsibility in providing health services to patients can be seen in professional ethics, administrative law, civil law, and criminal law

Photinus scintillans is one of the species of fireflies, emits yellowish-green light with a peak wavelength of 575 nm. LaAlO3:Dy3+:Bi3+ nanomaterials prepared through sono-chemical process can serve as material for photo luminescence. The wavelength of light emitted by Photinus scintillans can also be obtained by optically exciting the synthesized sample with 353 nm wavelength. Dipole transition 4F9/2→6H13/2 gives photon of wavelength 576 nm, which is exactly same as that emitted by Photinus scintillans. The color chromaticity shows the yellowish green emission region of nanoparticles. This material can be used for the preparation of LEDs to emit a wavelength of 576 nm. When LEDs are prepared from this material, they can mimic the bioluminescence of fireflies. Thus, prepared nanoparticles can mimic the bioluminescence of Photinus scintillans fireflies. Both Dy doped and Bi co-doped samples at higher concentrations showed zone of clearance for Gram positive bacteria. Bi co-doped at higher concentrations had substantial inhibition across gram positive and negative bacterial colonies.
1918-2018. La literature nationale comme projet unificateur
Authors:   UNIVERSITATEA DIN BUCUREȘTI, CERNAT PAUL
Published: December 2023

"1918-2018. National Literature as a Unifying Project ● Abstract (original): This paper offers a new approach on the topic of the identity of Romanian Literature as National Literature. I will discuss the case of the referential History of the Romanian Literature from its Origins until Present Day (1941) written by the most important Romanian literary critic and historian G Călinescu. This holistic historical narrative sends to a particular strategy of legitimizing the national literature as a history of literary values. I will argue that his focus on Romanian language as a trademark of Romanian literary identity proves insufficient as there are too many examples which invalidate Călinescu’s theory. I will propose in exchange an alternative, rather relative, but dynamic and integrative perspective: national literature as a concept with a variable geometry. That means, among others, the outcome of a historical metamorphosis, with its multiple borders and changing statutes, also with its modern and pre-modern avatars. We know that the challenges and new conflict between national and supranational brought by globalisation radically reformulate literary national identities and particularly peripheral and semi-peripheral identities, which need to update their roles and strategies of affirmation and preservation. This approach regarding National Literature will open a new dialogue with concepts like Regional Literature and even World Literature (in terms of world system analysis)"
Benjamin Fondane, Paul Celan et Norman Manea. Trois frères de lait noir
Authors:   Università della Calabria, VANHESE GISELE
Published: December 2023

In this essay, we study the presence of Benjamin Fondane in the work of Paul Celan, especially in Gespräch im Gebirg (Dialogue dans la montagne). Starting from the interesting hypothesis of Norman Manea — the interlocutor of Celan would in fact be Fondane — we adduce further proof to his considerations while expanding our research to Stimmen from the collection Sprachgitter and Vor dein spätes Gesicht from the collection Atemwende, texts that Norman Manea did not consider. Finally we point out to the intertextual relations that exist between the poetry of Benjamin Fondane and that of Paul Celan and Yvan Goll while relying our philological analysis on the textual indices disseminated in their works, indices toward which criticism has not pointed up to the present time.
Biographie et fiction dans les romans dystopiques de Oana Orlea et Virgil Gheorghiu
Authors:   UNIVERSITATEA DIN BUCUREȘTI, VRÂNCEANU PAGLIARDINI ANDREEA
Published: December 2023

This article analyses the theme of fear in Le grand Exterminateur by Virgil Gheorghiu and Un sosie en cavale by Oana Orlea. Romanian writers who chose the exile in France during the Cold War describe in their novels a dystopic world, where the dominant fear of the communist Romanian secret police, the Securitate, transforms the whole world in a prison cell. Inspired by their biography, Orlea’s and Gheorghiu’s novels describe the relationship between the world they escaped from and France, their new home, as permeable, thus creating a fictional world from which escape is impossible. The protagonists of Orlea’s and Gheorghiu’s novels are convinced that the Securitate is watching everybody and is just as omniscient and omnipresent as Orwell’s Big Brother. From a narrative point of view, both Orlea and Gheorghiu use a formula that brings together the detective novel, the dystopia, and some references to their own biographies.
La mythologie d’un exil heureux : Matei Vișniec ou comment habiter la culture française
Authors:   UNIVERSITATEA DIN BUCUREȘTI, TUDOR VICTORIȚA
Published: December 2023

The aim of this article is to reveal the implications of the political exile in Matei Visniec`s literary work, which he claims to be a joyful one, a cultural adventure, and leads him to describe himself as a man with his roots in Romania and his wings in France regardless of the communist terror. Our analysis will dismantle and aspire to establish the features of a whole imagery and theatrical chronotopes created in the context of exile, when Vișniec lived in Paris, – but also after the fall of communism –, when he engaged as a journalist and writer against the communist regime, exploring the soothing and cathartic virtues of the Word, whilst inhabiting two cultures and two sensibilities.
The Veils of the Eternal Exile in the Hooligan’s Return
Authors:   UNIVERSITATEA DIN BUCUREȘTI, PUȘCOCI ANDRA IOANA
Published: December 2023

In The Hooligan’s Return, Norman Manea tackles a series of defining themes for post-war European novels, namely exile, memory, self-delusion, the impossibility of return and life under totalitarian regimes. Manea uses the mythical figure of Ulysses to highlight the attempts of the exile to return to his native country in order to reshape the identity that was fragmented by the totalitarian political regime but also to show the inadequacy that the wanderer feels at the end of the journey to his origins. The long peregrinations deprive the exile of landmarks, as he ends up living on the recollection of events from his nightmarish past. The return to Romania and the confrontation with the past do not induce any emotion but prove to Manea that everything that was familiar to him had faded to the point of being emptied of meaning. Not only Jormania has changed, but so has he, and that is why he ends up feeling alienated from his old existence. The reader becomes a witness to the writer’s effort to recall and relive his own past, a process which purifies Manea's nostalgia and dilemmas. The Hooligan's Return highlights the complexity of Norman Manea’s wanderings, an author whose life was shaped by fascism, communism, and exile. For Manea, exile is the main theme of his writing, and the hooligan a mask of eternal exile, a symbol of otherness, regardless of how the exile managed to integrate and adapt to the new context provided by the host country
