SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW: METAPHOR, PROTOTYPE, AND MEANING ANALYSIS IN COGNITIVE LINGUISTIC STUDIES
Authors: Mufidah Nur Amalia
Published: February 2025

This study aims to compile a systematic review of the use of metaphors, prototypes, and meaning analysis within the scope of cognitive linguistics through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. Cognitive linguistics is a branch of linguistics that examines the relationship between language, thought, and human experience. This field focuses on three key concepts: conceptual metaphor, prototype structure, and the dynamics of meaning analysis. This review involves analyzing relevant literature, including journal articles, books, and research reports, to identify patterns, trends, and gaps in previous studies. The findings indicate that conceptual metaphors play a crucial role in representing human experience, while prototype theory provides insights into conceptual categories and meaning perception. Furthermore, meaning analysis within cognitive linguistics tends to be interdisciplinary, involving cognitive psychology, anthropology, and computer science. This study also highlights that the integration of digital technology in cognitive linguistic analysis presents new opportunities for developing more accurate methods. Overall, this research provides a comprehensive mapping of current literature and offers recommendations for future research directions, particularly in applying cognitive linguistics to understand language and cultural phenomena.

Authors: Altuğ Fatih , Almammadlı Gunay
Published: January 2025

Sanayi devriminden sonra toplum içinde görünür olma çabalarını artıran kadınlar, özellikle iş ve çalışma hayatında yer alabilmek için daha fazla mücadele etmişlerdir. Bu çalışma kadınların iş hayatındaki durumularını ekonomik coğrafya perspektifinden ele almaktadır. Çalışmanın amacı Türkiye’de kadın istihdamının sektörel-bölgesel-mekansal farklılaşmasını ele almaktır. Çalışma nicel araştırma yöntemini benimsemiş olup, analizde Sosyal Güvenlik Kurumu’ndan temin edilen istihdam verileri kullanılmıştır. 2004-2020 yılları arasındaki dönemi kapsayan veriler betimsel olarak analiz edilmiştir. Uzun dönemlik verilerin kullanımından kaynaklanacak sorunları önlemek amacıyla panel veri analizi yapılmış ve Türkiye’de kadın istihdamı üç döneme ayrılarak incelenmiştir. Kadın istihdamının sektörel ve bölgesel ölçekte yoğunlaşma durumu için ise lokasyon katsayısı analizi yapılmıştır. Analizden elde edilen bulgular ArcGIS 10.5 programı yardımıyla haritalandırılmıştır. Buna göre kadınların hizmet sektörünün alt faaliyet kollarında daha fazla istihdam edildiği tespit edilmiştir. Bölgesel ölçekte ise kadın istihdamının daha çok ülkenin batısındaki bölgelerde yoğunlaştığı, fakat 2004’ten 2020’ye kadar geçen süreçte ülkenin diğer bölgelerinde de yoğunlaşma düzeylerinin arttığı görülmüştür. Sonuç olarak kadın istihdamı ile erkek istihdamının bölgesel düzeyde yakınlaştığı ortaya çıkmıştır.

Most existing traffic video datasets e.g. the Waymo Open Motion Dataset (WOMD)[1], are collected in Western countries and consist of simple, structured, and predictable traffic. Most Asian scenarios, however, are far denser, more unstructured, and more heterogeneous, with many road-agents routinely disobeying common traffic rules. Consequently, state-of-the-art computer vision and autonomous driving perception algorithms trained on existing datasets do not transfer to traffic in Asian countries. Addressing this gap, we present a new dataset, DAVE, designed for evaluating perception methods with high representation of Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs: e.g. pedestrians, animals, motorbikes, and bicycles) in complex and unpredictable environments. DAVE is a manually annotated dataset encompassing 16 diverse actor categories (spanning animals, humans, vehicles, etc.) and 16 action types (complex and rare cases like cut-ins, zigzag movement, U-turn, etc.), which require high reasoning ability. DAVE densely annotates over 13 million bounding boxes (bboxes) actors with identification, and more than 1.6 million boxes are annotated with both actor identification and action/behavior details. The videos within DAVE are collected based on a broad spectrum of factors, such as weather conditions, the time of day, road scenarios, and traffic density. DAVE can benchmark video tasks like Tracking, Detection, Spatiotemporal Action Localization, Language-Visual Moment retrieval, and Multi-label Video Action Recognition. Given the critical importance of accurately identifying VRUs to prevent accidents and ensure road safety, in DAVE, vulnerable road users constitute 41.13% of instances, compared to 23.14% in WOMD. DAVE provides an invaluable resource for the development of more sensitive and accurate visual perception algorithms in the complex real world. Our experiments show that existing methods suffer degradation in performance when evaluated on DAVE, highlighting its benefit for future video recognition research.
Gestational Inflammation: Its Foetal Control and the Proper Therapeutic Approach
Authors: Vesce Fortunato
Published: January 2025

Inflammation triggers coagulation. Gestational Inflammation with its vascular implications is the cause of the major obstetric complications, from sporadic and recurrent miscarriage, to foetal growth restriction, premature delivery with all its nefarious perinatal sequels, up to the most dramatic scenarios of foetal and maternal death: it is neither adequately diagnosed nor promptly and exhaustively counteracted by current obstetrics.

Controlling gestational inflammation in normal pregnancy is primarily a foetus’s job. The vast majority of aneuploid foetuses are unable to control normal gestational inflammation, and are therefore spontaneously aborted. Euploid foetuses may be unable to control normal gestational inflammation, and in this case they are aborted, or suffer from the inflammatory complications of advanced pregnancy.

This article reports a selection of the best scientific evidence on gestational inflammation. It also analyses the current therapeutic approach, with particular regard to the use of glucocorticoids throughout pregnancy.

The article examines the results of state stimulation and financial support of scientists' publications in international journals in China and Kazakhstan. The study used data from the following databases: for China - US SCI and EI Compendex, for Kazakhstan - Scopus and Web of Science. As for domestic publications, for China - the selection standard is based on CNKI (the most complete and largest Chinese database); for Kazakhstan, such an analysis was not conducted, since the country does not have a single electronic database of domestic scientific publications. Certainly, against the backdrop of economic integration, as well as the globalization of science and technology, academic research in any country cannot be isolated from the global environment. International publication is a prerequisite for scientific development. A certain percentage of productivity of international publications is a normal need for scientific exchanges. On the other hand, according to the results of the study, the number of "domestic" publications in both countries has begun to decrease, due to the fact that leading scientists strive to publish their articles in English in rating publications, not in domestic scientific journals. The paper provides proposals for improving the situation.

Impulse für eine pflegebeziehungsorientierte institutionelle Kleinstkinderziehung
Authors: Gutewort Doreen
Published: February 2025

Seit über 20 Jahren wird der Ausbau der frühkindlichen Betreuung betrieben, jedoch ohne umfassende erziehungswissenschaftliche Erforschung der Bedeutung von Pflegehandlungen. Diese Untersuchung beleuchtet die zentrale, jedoch marginalisierte Rolle von Pflegehandlungen in der Frühpädagogik. Dabei werden diese nicht mehr als reine Hygienemaßnahmen, sondern als wesentliches Element verstanden, das die psychische, physische und soziale Entwicklung des Kindes beeinflusst. Historische, politische und feministische Analysen zeigen, wie Pflegehandlungen marginalisiert wurden. Im Gegenzug dazu steht Emmi Piklers Konzept des »körperlichen Dialogs«. Dieses wird mit weiteren sozialtheoretischen Ansätzen fundiert und verdeutlicht die Relevanz von Pflegehandlungen im Diskurs von leibbezogener und beziehungsorientierter institutioneller Frühkindbetreuung.

Authors: Mahfuddin Ahmad Za'im Muhtar , Prajoko Yan Wisnu , Sofyan Harahap Mohamad , Rachmawati Banundari , Istanto Nurcahyo Widya
Published: February 2025

Background: The objective of this study is to compare the effects between the combination of PECS Block II with GA and GA alone on the inflammation levels in breast cancer, measure by Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha (TNF-α) and the red blood cell distribution width to platelet ratio (RPR).
Methods: Experimental analytical study with parallel randomized control trial was done in 48 breast cancer patients who underwent breast removal surgery at Dr. Kariadi Hospital between  August – October 2023. Patients were randomly allocated into 2 groups, control (GA only) and treatment (PECS Block II + GA). Demographic data were obtained preoperatively, blood samples were collected 24 hours before and after surgery. TNF-α levels were analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA), while RPR were obtained from complete blood count. Independent t and mann-whitney tests were used, with a p-value <0,05 was considered significant.
Results: Postoperative TNF-α levels were similar in both groups (8.15 ± 5.31 vs 6.21 ± 5.58; p=0,135), but the difference between TNF-α levels was significantly higher in treatment group (-5.08 ± 3.70; p = 0.001). Postoperative RPR levels were higher in control group than treatment group (0,64 ± 0,28 vs 0,50 ± 0,20; p=0,031), where the difference between RPR levels was higher in treatment group (-0,07 ± 0,19; p = 0,037).
Conclusion: Inflammatory biomarkers, in the form of TNF-α and RPR in breast cancer surgery were found to be lower with the usage of the combination of PECS Block II with general anesthesia than with general anesthesia only.
Identification of Novel Diagnostic Biomarkers in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Through Analysis of Polymorphic SNPs and APA Events
Authors: Dong Daiyun , Tao Yuzhang , Wu Xiaoming
Published: February 2025

Background: As a subtype of breast cancer, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) exhibits unique pathological phenotypes and severe morbidity trends. New evidence suggests that aberrant alternative polyadenylation (APA) events can be regulated by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and are associated with breast cancer. The study aimed to identify the APA-associated susceptibility SNP in TNBC, which may be useful in screening and treatment.
Methods: The RNA sequencing data is from 285 tumor tissues and 66 normal tissues of TNBC patients, accessed from the NCBI dataset FUSCCTNBC (Accession: PRJNA486023). We analyzed gene expression levels, APA events, and APA-associated SNPs, and explored their relationships and influences on TNBC.
Results: Our study revealed significant differences in both gene expression and APA events between tumor and normal tissues of TNBC patients. The differentially expressed genes are enriched in protein transcription, folding, localization, and targeting. apaQTL analysis indicated significant associations between APA events of genes and SNPs. We found that the APA event of the transmembrane p24 trafficking protein 9 (TMED9) is highly related to the SNP rs3749822, where the G allele would decrease the Poly-A length of TMED9 and increase its expression level.
Conclusion: The study elucidates the significant association between SNP rs3749822 and the APA event of the TMED9 gene, as well as their influences on TNBC, highlighting the susceptibility of SNP rs3749822 allele G for TNBC. Our findings provide new directions for further exploration of SNPs affecting APA events, aiding in identifying disease-susceptible populations.

Background: Breast cancer (BC) counts for half of the excess risk of second cancer after Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL), but evidence about the clinical and pathological features of these cancers is lacking. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether these secondary BCs have distinctive characteristics compared to sporadic ones.
Methods: This is a case-control study comparing patients who developed BC after receiving treatment for HL with an age-matched cohort of non-irradiated patients.  All the cases were treated at the Veneto Institute of Oncology (Padua, Italy) between 2002 and 2017. We analyzed the clinical and pathologic features of BCs and compared treatment modalities using Chi-squared tests. Kaplan-Meier survival analyses were conducted to investigate overall and disease-free survival in the two groups.
Results: 35 patients who were treated for HL and subsequently developed BCs were identified. BC occurred after a mean interval of 19.65 years (SD=10.08 years) from the HD diagnosis. 4 of the patients treated for HL (11.4%) had a bilateral presentation. 80% of the cases and 63% of the controls were ER+/HER- (p=0.516), while 20% of the HL group and 5.7% of the sporadic group were ER- /HER- (p=0.116). Ipsilateral BC recurrence (17.1% vs 8.6% in the sporadic BC group, p=0.346) and death events were more frequent in the HL group (11.4% vs 5.7% in the sporadic BC group, p=0.433), with a mean follow-up of 70 months (standard deviation=42.8months).
Conclusions: Our data show that BC arising after HL often presented with bilateral localization, aggressive biological profiles, and had high recurrence rates. Dedicated treatment modalities should be considered and evaluated in a multidisciplinary setting.

Esta obra pretende manifestar la preocupación por las potenciales consecuencias negativas del proyecto de nuevos planes y programas de estudio (PPE) para la educación básica que la Secretaría de Educación Pública (SEP) dio a conocer recientemente. Los maestros, en su mayoría, ignoran los contenidos y las implicaciones de esta nueva reforma y experimentan un sentimiento de angustia por las nuevas cargas de trabajo que este cambio traerá consigo.

La SEP no solicita una reforma curricular convencional —como fueron las de 2011 y 2017—, y las autoridades plantean un reordenamiento completo de la actividad educativa sin un diagnóstico claro de los problemas relevantes y sus causas profundas. No hay antecedentes históricos, en México ni en el extranjero, de una educación comunitaria como la que se proyecta. Por ende, proponemos la fuerza social, que permitirá abrir un horizonte de esperanza para que los mexicanos construyamos una sociedad democrática en un estado de derecho, de justicia social y paz.

Literature Review: Penggunaan Pakan Protein Terproteksi (Undegradable Protein) pada Ternak Ruminansia
Authors: Aisyah Imas , Maslachah Lulu’u Wilda
Published: February 2025

Artikel ini disusun untuk memahami dampak pemberian protein terproteksi pada ternak ruminansia. Protein memainkan peran yang penting dalam pertumbuhan dan perkembangan hewan ternak. Pada ternak ruminansia, protein dalam pakan akan dimanfaatkan untuk menghasilkan protein mikroba di dalam rumen. Protein yang berasal dari pakan diubah menjadi asam amino yang kemudian digunakan oleh tubuh ruminansia untuk meningkatkan aktivitas mikroba rumen dan meningkatkan produktivitas ternak. Ternak ruminansia memperoleh kebutuhan protein melalui sintesis protein oleh mikroba di dalam rumen. Namun, suplai protein mikrobia masih belum cukup untuk memenuhi kebutuhan ternak sehingga perlu tambahan suplementasi protein terproteksi (undegradable protein) yang tidak mudah terurai di dalam rumen dan membuat asam amino tersedia untuk diserap di usus halus. Proteksi protein dapat dilakukan dengan cara penambahan tanin maupun formaldehid. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode telaah literatur, di mana informasi diperoleh dengan melakukan pencarian literatur yang relevan. Hasil penelusuran didapatkan enam artikel jurnal yang relevan. Protein terproteksi tidak mengganggu aktivitas mikroba rumen, selama penambahan tanin maupun formaldehid masih dalam jumlah yang sesuai. Protein terproteksi atau undegradable protein memiliki pengaruh dalam meningkatkan produksi susu, kualitas susu dan glukosa dalam darah, namun tidak memberikan dampak signifikan pada peningkatan berat badan harian ternak ruminansia.

Authors: Huda Qasim Saeed Huda Qasim Saeed
Published: February 2025

This research study investigates the impact of organizational immunity on the attainment of institutional excellence at the Oil Products Distribution Company of the Iraqi Ministry of Oil. The components that encapsulate organizational immunity include but are not limited to organizational learning, organizational memory, and organizational DNA, which together empower the organization for adaptive response in the face of challenges and the resilience to bounce back. From here, an institution is expected to demonstrate excellence in leadership, in human resources, in service quality, and in organizational culture.
The study further states that there is a positive significant relationship between the tenets of organizational immunity and institutional excellence. Thus, enhanced institutional immunity creates institutional resilience, which enables taking care of stability, adaptability to the environment, and sustainable competitive advantage. Results show that organization learning and memory contribute significantly to institutional excellence in building the retention and adaptability of knowledge in the pro-active response to challenges.
The study, therefore, emphasizes the need for improving organizational learning through continuous development programs and using organizational memory to ensure consistency within decision-making and operational success. It also underscores the importance of culture-building on resilience and adaptability toward creating institutional excellence sustainable over time and positioning the organization for competitive advantage and growth.

Published: February 2025

This paper describes the financial performance of the banking sector in Iraq using the PATROL early warning model. The research found the strengths and weaknesses in bank operations and forecasted the financial crises using data from 2018 to 2022 to enhance performance. The indicators included capital adequacy, credit risk, profitability, organizational efficiency, and liquidity, with performance rated on a scale from "very good" to "poor." Related findings proved that the Iraqi banks would be entirely successful in financial performance regarding most indicators and scaling-high in capital adequacy, profitability, organization, and liquidity, in accordance with sound management and robust operations. However, credit risk posed challenges because the assets demonstrated lower quality compared to other indicators. Findings from the research suggest the importance of the PATROL model in guiding regulatory authorities in monitoring financial health, correcting imbalances, and improving stability. Overall, the empirical study tends to validate the effectiveness of the model as a strategy for improving and assessing financial outcomes in the banking sector.
The research study has been geared towards the analysis of the financial performance of the banking sector in Iraq using the PATROL early warning model.
