Family History of Sacroiliac Joint Pain as a Risk Factor for Development of Sacroiliac Joint Pain: A Case-Control Study
Authors: Javed Saba , Chen Jordan
Published: January 2023

Background: Chronic lower-back pain is among the most common health problems and accounts for a significant amount of disability worldwide. Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) pain is one of the leading causes of lower-back pain; however, diagnosis of SIJ pain can sometimes be challenging. Family history is a known predictive factor for arthritis in both seropositive and seronegative arthropathies, including osteoarthritis; however, the role of family history in SIJ pain has not been studied. Study: This case-control study examined whether family history of SIJ pain is a risk factor for developing SIJ pain. Discussion: Results indicate that a high proportion of patients with SIJ pain reported positive family history of SIJ pain (58.6% vs 10.5%, P < .001). Cases were 6.5 times more likely than controls to report any relative with history of SIJ pain. Conclusion: Patients with a prior family history of SIJ pain can be identified early, monitored closely, diagnosed early, and started on aggressive physical therapy and close follow-up. Key words: Sacroiliac joint pain, sacroiliac joint dysfunction
Complete Resolution of Chronic Postdural Puncture Headache from Cervical Decompression After Lumbar Epidural Blood Patch Administration: A Case Report
Authors: Bajaj Gurtej
Published: January 2023

Background: Neuraxial procedures have the risk of causing dural compromise that leads to postdural puncture headaches (PDPH). PDPH is normally treated conservatively with oral agents, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and caffeine, or invasively with epidural blood patches (EBP). There is a paucity of evidence for the use of lumbar EBP in cases where the suspected chronic dural defect is at the cervical level. Case Report: A 47-year-old patient who underwent C4-C6 posterior extension of fusion as well as right-sided C5-C6 foraminotomy subsequently developed chronic PDPH symptoms that were refractory to conservative interventions. A lumbar EBP was performed for suspected cervical dura compromise, with near-immediate resolution of symptoms that lasted for multiple months. Conclusion: Lumbar EBP should be considered in patients with suspected PDPH from cervical dural compromise, especially in the context of a prolonged clinical course or failure of conservative means. Key words: Case report, cervical dura compromise, lumbar epidural patch, postdural puncture headache

Background: Brucella abortus live vaccines (strains 19 and RB51) have successfully been used to control bovine brucellosis especially to protect cattle against infection and abortion worldwide. Most of the knowledge of the protective immune response of these vaccines against brucellosis induced by immunization derives from the studies in mice. Some studies on humoral immune response of these vaccines have been studied in bovine and buffaloes and an attempt is made further to evaluate the serological responses of RB51 vaccine in cross-bred heifers of smallholder dairy farms in Bangladesh.

Objective: This study was conducted to measure serological responses induced in cross-bred dairy heifers immunized with RB51 Brucella abortus vaccine by using indirect ELISA.

Materials and Methods: Five cross-bred (Holstein  Local) heifers were selected for this experiment which aged four months and sero-negative for Brucella infection in smallholder dairy farms in the district of Kushtia. Each of the selected heifer received 2.0 ml imported commercial B. abortus RB51 strain vaccine subcutaneously in the neck region at day 0 and then booster dose at 60 days after the first vaccination with similar dose and route during the period from January to July 2020. Each of the collected serum samples of five heifers at day 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, 60, 90, 120 and 150 was tested to detect the antibody status by using commercial indirect ELISA kit.

Results: The serological responses (antibody level) was detected by commercial indirect ELISA OD values in the serum of cross-bred heifers induced by using B. abortus strain RB51 commercial live vaccine resulted 0.097 OD value at 0 day (pre-vaccination) and 0.108 at 7th day of post-immunization. It appears that the OD values in the immunized heifers was started to rise from the first week and it was gradually increased and reached the peak level at 60 days (OD value 0.223). Booster vaccination administered at 60 days was resulted peak antibody level at day 90 (OD value 0.313) but its level was started to decline from 120 days with a highest declined at day 150 (OD value 0.199).

Conclusions: Further studies to define the cellular immune response and protection against B. abortus infection are recommended before routine use of the vaccine in cattle in Bangladesh.

Background: Brucellosis is an ancient re-emerging bacterial zoonotic disease caused by species of the Brucella genus, affects a wide range of domesticated and adult wildlife, and plays a significant economic impact on the public health and the livestock sector. Improvement of knowledge, attitudes and practices among dairy farm workers could have a significant impact on reduction of zoonotic brucellosis in daily farming.
Objectives: This study aimed at assessing workers’ knowledge about brucellosis and practices relevant to its transmission on military dairy farms in Bangladesh.
Materials and Methods: From March to August 2020 a cross-sectional study was conducted among the dairy workers (n = 715) in eight military dairy farms from different regions in Bangladesh. A standardized questionnaire was used to collect information of participants’ knowledge, awareness and practices on brucellosis. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with knowledge, awareness and practices.
Results: All participants were male and 33.4% of them were in the age group 25 to 34 years. Only 0.3% of the participants knew that brucellosis is a zoonosis and was familiar with its symptoms. Among them, 61% of the participants stated that fever is the most noticeable clinical sign of brucellosis. None of the workers and their families consumed raw milk and products there. While handling fetal membranes and dead fetuses 74.8% of the workers used hand gloves, 94% of participants washed hands after contact with animals and 95.5% also washed hands before and after milking. Dairy farm workers aged between 18 to 24 years and > 44 years were 9.9% (95% CI: 2.9; 33.6) and 5.8 times (95% CI: 1.6; 20.5) more likely to have adequate knowledge of brucellosis than 25 and 44 years old. The odds awareness were 1.8 times (95% CI: 1.1; 2.8) higher among dairy farm workers aged between 18 to 24 years than those aged between 25 to 34 years. Dairy farm workers aged between 18 to 24 years and > 44 years were 2.1 (95% CI: 1.3; 3.4) and 2.9 times (95% CI: 1.8; 4.9) more likely to perform appropriate practice than those aged between 25 to 34 years. In addition, animal attendant performed 8.9 times (95% CI: 2.2; 36.1) more appropriate practices than milkmen.
Conclusions: The knowledge of the workers about brucellosis in these eight military dairy farms was considered moderate. Awareness programs are necessary to improve and foster preventive practices.
On modules over the mod 2 Steenrod algebra and hit problems
Authors: Võ Phúc Đặng
Published: February 2023

Let us consider the prime field of two elements, $\mathbb F_2\equiv \mathbb Z_2.$  It is well-known that the classical "hit problem" for a module over the mod 2 Steenrod algebra $\mathscr A$ is an interesting and important open problem of Algebraic topology, which asks a minimal set of generators for the polynomial algebra $\mathcal P_m:=\mathbb F_2[x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_m]$ on $m$ variables $x_1, \ldots, x_m,$ each of degree one, regarded as a connected unstable $\mathscr A$-module.  The algebra $\mathcal P_m$ is the cohomology with $\mathbb F_2$-coefficients of the product of $m$ copies of the Eilenberg-MacLan complex $K(\mathbb F_2, 1).$ Although the hit problem has been thoroughly studied for more than 3 decades, solving it remains a mystery for any $m\geq 5.$ In this article, we develop our previous work [Commun. Korean Math. Soc. 35 (2020), 371-399] on the hit problem for $\mathscr A$-module $\mathcal P_5$ in generic degree $n:=n_s = 5(2^{s}-1) + 18.2^{s}$ with $s$ an arbitrary non-negative integer. As an immediate consequence, a local version of Kameko's conjecture for the dimension of the cohit space $\mathbb F_2\otimes_{\mathscr A}\mathcal P_m$ associated with weight vectors is true for $m = 5$ and degree $n_s.$ Also, we show that this conjecture also holds for any $m\geq 1$ and degrees $\leq 12.$ Two applications of this study are to establish the dimension result for the cohit space $\mathbb F_2\otimes_{\mathscr A}\mathcal P_m$ for $m = 6$ in generic degree $5(2^{s+4}-1) + n_1.2^{s+4}$ with $s > 0$ and to describe the modular representations of the general linear group of rank $5$ over $\mathbb F_2.$ Our results then show that the algebraic transfer, defined by W. Singer [Math. Z. 202 (1989), 493-523], is an isomorphism in bidegrees $(5, 5+n_s)$ with $s\geq 0.$ Also, we prove that Singer's transfer is a trivial isomorphism in bidegree $(m, m+12)$ with $m$ an arbitrary positive integer.

Diabetes mellitus (DB) is the most challenging and fastest-growing global public health challenge. An estimated 10.5% of the global adult population suffers from diabetes, and almost half of them are undiagnosed. The growing at-risk population exacerbated the shortage of health resources, with an estimated 10.6% and 6.2% of adults worldwide having impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and impaired fasting glycemia (IFG), respectively. All the current diabetes screening methods are invasive and opportunistic and must be conducted in a hospital or a laboratory by trained professionals. At-risk subjects might remain undetected for years and miss the precious time window for early intervention in preventing or delaying the onset of diabetes and its complications. This study was conducted at KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital of Singapore, and five hundred participants were recruited (mean age 38.73 ± 10.61 years; mean BMI 24.4 ± 5.1 kg/m2). The blood glucose levels, for most participants, were measured before and after 75g of sugary drink using both the conventional glucometer (Accu-Chek Performa) and the wrist-worn wearable. The results obtained from the glucometer were used as the ground truth measurements. We propose leveraging photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors and machine learning techniques to incorporate this into an affordable wrist-worn wearable device to detect elevated blood glucose levels (⩾ 7.8mmol/L) non-invasively. Multiple machine learning models were trained and assessed with 10-fold cross-validation using subject demographic data and critical features extracted from the PPG measurements as predictors. Support vector machine (SVM) with a radial basis function kernel has the best detection performance with an average accuracy of 84.7%, a sensitivity of 81.05%, a specificity of 88.3%, a precision of 87.51%, a geometric mean of 84.54% and F-score of 84.03%. Hence, PPG measurements can be utilized to identify subjects with elevated blood glucose measurements and assist in the screening of subjects for diabetes risk.
Hopfield Neural Network With Negative Weights
Authors: Cursino Carla , Vieira Dias Luiz Alberto
Published: February 2023

Hopfield and Tank have shown that a neural network can find solutions for complex optimization problems although it can be trapped in a local minimum of the objective function returning a suboptimal solution. When the problem has constraints they can be added to the objective function as penalty terms using Lagrange multipliers. In this paper, we introduce an approach inspired by the work of Andrew, Chu, and Kate to implement a neural network to obtain solutions satisfying the linear equality constraints using the Moore- Penrose pseudo inverse matrix to construct a projection matrix to send any configuration to the subspace of configuration space that satisfies all the constraints. The objective function of the problem is modified to include Lagrange-multipliers terms for the equations of constraints. Furthermore, we have found that such condition makes the network converge to a set of stable states even if some diagonal elements of the weight matrix are negative. If after several steps the network does not converge to a stable state, we just solve the problem using simulated annealing. We use this technique to solve the NP-hard Light Up puzzle.
Precise Positioning: When OTFS Meets Distributed Cooperative Positioning
Authors: emadi mj , Hu Sha , Wang Hao
Published: February 2023

Precision positioning plays critical roles in 5G-Advanced and 6G systems for various indoor and outdoor applications. Conventionally, positioning accuracy can be dramatically degraded under non-line-of-sight channels or with moving terminal nodes (TNs). To overcome this issue, we propose an orthogonal time-frequency space (OTFS) based positioning with applying distributed cooperative positioning (DCoP) at the ends of TNs, which can yield an ultra-most precise positioning. This is so, since the positioning with OTFS is robust against channel delays and Doppler spreads, and superior to conventional orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) based positioning. Further, DCoP uses cooperations such that TNs can serve as additional anchor nodes (ANs) to others, and improves the positioning accuracy for all. With this proposal, we further elaborate the positioning-reference-signal with OTFS (PRS-OTFS) in delay-Doppler (DD) domain, and design an OTFS-transceiver that is backward compatible to OFDM. Furthermore, we also propose a DD-domain time-of-arrival estimation algorithm that exploits the OTFS waveform and outperforms conventional time-frequency based estimators. Moreover,  we propose a loopy belief-propagation algorithm associated with belief-discretizing for an effective implementation and message exchange in DCoP. In addition, we show that the average Cramer-Rao low-bound per TN can decrease faster than linearly in the number of cooperating TNs. We illustrate with simulations that the proposed OTFS-DCoP scheme is very effective in improving positioning accuracy within a few iterations, and robust against double-selective channels. 
Aerial RIS-Aided Physical Layer Security: Optimal Deployment and Partitioning
Authors: Arzykulov Sultangali , Celik Abdulkadir , Nauryzbayev Galymzhan , Eltawil Ahmed
Published: February 2023

This paper proposes a novel approach for enhancing physical layer security (PLS) in wireless networks by utilizing a combination of reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) and artificial noise (AN). The proposed aerial RIS (A-RIS) concept utilizes a RIS-attached unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that hovers over the network area to improve the signal quality for legitimate users and jam that of illegitimate ones. We propose a method of virtually partitioning the RIS, such that the partition phase shifts are configured to improve the intended signal at a legitimate user while simultaneously increasing the impact of AN on illegitimate users. Additionally, thanks to the availability of closed-form optimal RIS portions, the proposed deployment approaches converge in less than a second, making it suitable for dynamic A-RIS deployment.
Evolution of MAC Protocols in the Machine Learning Decade: A Comprehensive Survey
Authors: Hussien Mostafa
Published: February 2023

The last decade, (2012 - 2022), saw an unprecedented advance in machine learning (ML) techniques, particularly deep learning (DL). As a result of the proven capabilities of DL, a large amount of work has been presented and studied in almost every field. Since 2012, when the convolution neural networks have been reintroduced in the context of \textit{ImagNet} competition, DL continued to achieve superior performance in many challenging tasks and problems. Wireless communications, in general, and medium access control (MAC) techniques, in particular, were among the fields that were heavily affected by this improvement. MAC protocols play a critical role in defining the performance of wireless communication systems. At the same time, the community lacks a comprehensive survey that collects, analyses, and categorizes the recent work in ML-inspired MAC techniques. In this work, we fill this gap by surveying a long line of work in this era. We solidify the impact of machine learning on wireless MAC protocols. We provide a comprehensive background to the widely adopted MAC techniques, their design issues, and their taxonomy, in connection with the famous application domains. Furthermore, we provide an overview of the ML techniques that have been considered in this context. Finally, we augment our work by proposing some promising future research directions and open research questions that are worth further investigation.
A New Model for Correcting and Improving the Sequence Networks Method of Single-Phase Earth Fault to Accommodate All Resistance Grounding Systems
Authors: Wang Yubo
Published: February 2023

The method of sequence networks is still well-known and widely utilized for analyzing and computing unsymmetrical faults in power system networks today, particularly in solid grounding systems where it was initially introduced for short circuit analysis. When it comes to single-phase earth fault that is a dominant majority type of fault in power distribution grids, different neutral grounding methods with varied impedances result in distinct fault characteristics, to continue utilizing sequence networks could cause inaccurate calculations by the reason of neutral voltage during earth fault does not remain as close to zero as it’s pinned in solid grounding system. As neutral resistance increases gradually, the impact of line-to-ground capacitance becomes more pronounced and can no longer be ignored. In this case, applying sequence networks could lead to calculated results that are far from the actual situations in grids.

This paper discovers and proves an obscurely hidden defect of the sequence network, while proposing a new and novel modeling to derive comprehensive equations of fault calculations for all types of resistant grounding systems, including solid grounding, low resistance grounding, high resistance grounding, and ungrounded systems.
NLP as a Lens for Causal Analysis and Perception Mining to Infer Mental Health on Social Media
Authors: Garg Muskan , Saxena Chandni , Naseem Usman , Sohn Sunghwan , Dorr Bonnie J
Published: February 2023

Interactions among humans on social media often convey intentions behind their actions, yielding a psychological language resource for Mental Health Analysis (MHA) of online users. The success of Computational Intelligence Techniques (CIT) for inferring mental illness from such social media resources points to NLP as a lens for causal analysis and perception mining. However, we argue that more consequential and explainable research is required for optimal impact on clinical psychology practice and personalized mental healthcare. To bridge this gap, we posit two significant dimensions: (1) Causal analysis to illustrate a cause and effect relationship in the user generated text; (2) Perception mining to infer psychological perspectives of social effects on online users intentions. Within the scope of Natural Language Processing (NLP), we further explore critical areas of inquiry associated with these two dimensions, specifically through recent advancements in discourse analysis. This position paper guides the community to explore solutions in this space and advance the state of practice in developing conversational agents for inferring mental health from social media. We advocate for a more explainable approach toward modeling computational psychology problems through the lens of language as we observe an increased number of research contributions in dataset and problem formulation for causal relation extraction and perception enhancements while inferring mental states.

Il cambiamento della scuola secondo il paradigma dell’outdoor education per la rinascita della persona
Authors: Chistolini Sandra , Villanova Matteo
Published: January 2023

The return to school was as traumatic for the school as being at home forced by the pandemic emergency. The inability to adapt immediately to change whether in the case of preventing contagion or in the case of resuming the rhythm of daily life abruptly thrown back into the vortex of the schedules that punctuate our existence, demonstrates the human person's need to know and master events. There is in fact a clear gap between the change brought about by norms and the internalization of the sense of change itself. The freedom in which a person's autonomy is expressed clashes with the need to accommodate what is indispensable to civil coexistence. The continuous process of adaptation to events moves toward finding that balance which, although, temporary, remains indispensable for the reorganization of the school into new forms. Among the choices of greatest interest, outdoor education presents itself as the paradigm of a desired and expected innovation capable of opening the school to the world to know how to handle emergency and everyday life.

The high usage of non-renewable energy and the uncertainty of heat sources in the Karaha- Talaga Bodas area are the background of this research. The high usage of non-renewable energy over-increased necessity can cause the reserve become depleted. Therefore, a different perspective is needed by switching the use of non-renewable to renewable energy, which is geothermal energy. To optimize the potential of geothermal, simillar research about geothermal’s system component is needed, which is heat source. This piece of information regarding the probability of the heat source being foreseeable from the surface, but the detail is still less-effective since most of the possible heat sources do not correspond to those indicated from the surface information, thereby, the gravity method can validating the probability of the heat source. The research purposely indicates the heat source and foresees the conceptual geothermal system in Karaha-Talaga Bodas area using the gravity method. The surface’s study results shows a probability of heat source as the eruption centers in the Karaha-Talaga Bodas area. The gravity’s study results shows a probability of heat source by the Bouguer anomaly, regional gravity anomaly, residual gravity anomaly, and high-density in the Talaga Bodas subsurface area. Meanwhile, the gravity’s study results shows a probability of heat source in Karaha subsurface by the residual gravity anomaly and high density contrast. Based on the conceptual model of Karaha- Talaga Bodas geothermal system, it can be interpreted that the geothermal system in Karaha and Talaga Bodas has different heat source.
ВИКОРИСТАННЯ СЕНСОРНИХ ХАРАКТЕРИСТИК ІДЕНТИФІКАЦІЇ М’ЯСНОЇ ПРОДУКЦІЇ ПРИ МИТНОМУ ОФОРМЛЕННІ ДЛЯ ВИЯВЛЕННЯ ФАЛЬСИФІКАЦІЇ ТА З МЕТОЮ ЗАХИСТУ СПОЖИВАЧІВ

У статті зроблена спроба показати можливості використання сенсорних характеристик ідентифікації м’ясної продукції при митному оформленні для виявлення фальсифікації та з метою захисту споживачів, оскільки у процесі митної діяльності з кожним роком збільшується кількість випадків недостовірного декларування або неправильного визначення класифікаційного коду м’ясних товарів, а співробітники митних органів часто стикаються з проблемою, коли неможливо розрізнити інформацію, що міститься на таврі або маркуванні, оскільки у зв’язку з транспортуванням і великим об’ємом продукції, що перевозиться, обриси тавра можуть стати нерозпізнаваними. Як показує практика, отримати інформацію про той чи інший м’ясний продукт не завжди є можливим. Під час проведення митного контролю однією з найважливіших проблем є проблема визначення країни походження товарів, що переміщуються через митний кордон України. Правильне визначення країни походження імпортованих товарів є основою митного контролю з метою забезпечення економічної безпеки країни, щоб уникнути надходження на територію держави контрафактної, неякісної продукції, а також для правильного розрахунку і надання тарифних преференцій, пільг і необхідне для застосування основних заходів зовнішньоторговельної політики, а також з метою статистичної звітності. Розглянуто проблему визначення країни походження товару на прикладі ввезення іноземного м’яса великої рогатої худоби. Співробітники митних органів, ветеринарного нагляду часто стикаються з проблемою, коли неможливо розрізнити інформацію, що міститься на таврі, оскільки у зв’язку з транспортуванням обриси тавра часом стають нерозрізнюваними. Запропоновано введення груп ідентифікації для вирішення проблеми, необхідної для сенсорної ідентифікації на підставі таврування м'ясних туш та захисту прав споживачів на безпеку та інформаційне забезпечення. Зроблено висновок про необхідність як удосконалення митного законодавства, що регулює питання визначення країни походження товару, так і практичного використання з метою забезпечення економічної безпеки України. Проблема правильності визначення країни походження товару особливо актуальна в сучасний період, оскільки має місце ввезення товарів, заборонених до ввезення на територію країни українським урядом.

Introdução: O termo câncer (CA) refere-se a um grande grupo de entidades nosológicas de ordem genética que afeta qualquer estrutura corporal A intervenção cirúrgica, a radioterapia (RT) e a quimioterapia (QT) fazem parte de seu escopo terapêutico. No entanto, muito comumente pacientes oncológicos desenvolvem como resposta adversa a mucosite oral (MO), que por sua vez compromete a integridade e funcionalidade da cavidade bucal. Contudo, a laserterapia de baixa intensidade (LTBI) vem ganhando espaço no tratamento destas lesões ulcerativas. Objetivo: avaliar os efeitos da LTBI no tratamento da MO em pacientes submetidos à terapia antineoplásica. Método: realizou-se uma busca sistemática nas bases de dados Lilacs, Medline, Scielo e PubMed, entre julho e dezembro de 2022, sendo selecionados artigos publicados nos últimos cinco anos. Resultados: após a análise sistematizada realizada por 2 pesquisadores, 200 artigos foram encontrados, sendo 194 excluídos. Discussão: a MO é o efeito adverso agudo mais debilitante naqueles em tratamento antineoplásico, merecendo atenção interdisciplinar especial. Porém, entre as modalidades terapêuticas existentes, a LTBI se destaca como uma alternativa eficaz, não invasiva, com boa tolerância e elevado perfil de segurança. Considerações finais: a literatura científica sugere que a LTBI apresenta resultados positivos no controle da inflamação, na redução das lesões e no aumento da qualidade de vida.

For some must watch, while some must sleep, so runs the world away-William Shakespeare, Hamlet. While you were enjoying your deep sleep, there are somebody tasked to ensure your safety, some of them are called BPATs (Barangay Peace Keeping Action Team). This study aims to determine the level of implementation, effectiveness and degree of problems encountered of Barangay Peacekeeping Action Team in the City of Cabanatuan, Nueva Ecija. it used of descriptive research design. A survey questionnaire was used as a main tool of the study that was validated by experts. Data gathered were tallied, tabulated, treated and interpreted using Likert Scale and Weighted Mean. The study was conducted in 9 selected barangays the City of Cabanatuan, Nueva Ecija where 605 respondents participated composed of; 40 PNP Personnel, 188 Barangay Officials and 377 Residents. Results showed that the BPAT were implemented, effective and the problems encountered were fairly serious. In conclusion, Barangay Peacekeeping Action Team of selected barangays in the City of Cabanatuan was mobilized, working and effective. The problems encountered were less serious and manageable. It is then recommended that implementers of the team should continue to perform well and to ensure the effectiveness of the team there is a need to systematize their daily routine activities in implementation of peace and order. Also, implementers of BPAT must strengthen and update the knowledge, skills and attitude of the members through a joint trainings and seminars.

Ruralidade trágica em Juan Rulfo: apontamentos entre ficção e realidade
Authors: Kummer Rodrigo , Lima (in memoriam) Eli Napoleão de
Published: January 2023

Esta é uma análise da produção literária do escritor mexicano Carlos Juan Nepomuceno Pérez Rulfo Vizcaíno (1917-1986). Buscou-se aprofundar os sentidos de seus enredos trágicos, ambientados e referenciados à desigualdade social e à ruralidade mexicana de meados do século XX. O objeto de discussão se circunscreve às obras literárias Chão em Chamas (1953) e Pedro Páramo (1955). Estes textos, notoriamente complexos e enigmáticos, se relacionam entre a realidade social mexicana do início do século XX e o imaginário social, permeado pelo misticismo e pelo fantástico. A literatura rulfiana, portanto, assumiu a tessitura de um discurso que oscila entre o real e o imaginário e que dá sentido às experiências históricas. Nesse viés, um dos elementos fundamentais da produção literária de Rulfo é a presença da tragédia. Ela apresenta, sobretudo, elementos de uma ruralidade permeada pela escassez, pela exploração e pela pobreza. Sua obra representa, de modo original, uma contribuição ao pensamento decolonial, pois apresenta uma manifestação literária que advoga e dialoga com sua realidade de forma propositadamente pragmática. Sua tragicidade rural é, além de denúncia, um forçoso choque de realidade.
Видове різноманіття дендрофлори байрачних лісів (зона рекреації міста Запоріжжя)

Біологічне різноманіття екосистем, зокрема й лісових, є запорукою їх стійкості. Важливо досліджувати показники біорізноманіття за різних лісорослинних умов, у різних типах лісу, з урахуванням дії екологічних факторів. Актуальним є оцінювання біорізноманіття байрачних лісів степової зони України як осередків інтразональної рослинності. Обстежено 9 байраків, що розташовані в зоні рекреації мешканців Запоріжжя і туристів. Вивчені об'єкти розташовані у підзоні різнотравно-типчаково-ковилового Степу (південний варіант). Встановлено, що дендрофлора досліджених байрачних лісів сформована 76-ма таксонами деревних рослин. Їх кількість варіює від 25 (балка Велика Башмачка) до 54 (балка Широка). Виділено види, які трапляються в насадженнях усіх вивчених балок (Acer tataricum, Armeniaca vulgaris, Ligustrum vulgare, Morus alba, Pyrus communis, Quercus robur, Robinia pseudoacacia, Rosa canina, Ulmus scabra), а також породи, що ростуть тільки в одній з них. До складу дендрофлори усіх байрачних лісів входять інтродуковані види. Частка їх участі змінюється від 20,7 (балка Хортицька) до 51,9 % (балка Широка). Усього виявлено 36 неаборигенних видів, з яких 38,9 % - північноамериканського походження. Розраховано індекси подібності видового складу деревних насаджень досліджених балок за Жаккаром і Серенсеном. Високі їх значення зумовлені територіальним сусідством (балки Велика Молодняга й Ушвивa). За результатами оцінювання видового багатства байрачних лісів за індексом Маргалефа виявлено найбільше видове різноманіття деревостанів із істотною участю інтродуцентів. Розраховані значення індексу Бергера-Паркера свідчать про домінування в деяких балках певних порід (Генералка - Acer campestre, Хортицька - A. tataricum, Совутина й Ушвива - Quercus robur). За отриманими результатами виділено 6 категорій байрачних лісів з урахуванням ступеня видового різноманіття, участі у складі дендрофлори різних за походженням видів та домінування окремих порід.
