DDS-XRCE Standard Performance Evaluation of Different Communication Scenarios in IoT Technologies
Authors: Solpan Sevval , Kucuk Kerem
Published: November 2022

Although the increasing number of technological products brings many solutions for Internet of Things (IoT) applications, it also causes some drawbacks, such as whether the product in question would run accordingly to a system structured to enable high-performance like Data Distribution Service (DDS). Therefore, the capabilities of the products must be defined to say that they are compatible enough. This paper aims to evaluate the performance of the DDS-XRCE standard while observing its working mechanism. As test scenarios, we benefit from three DDS-XRCE deployments that occurred due to the kind of receiver and sender, the path that packets follow, and the protocols used. Test conditions were set by switching stream modes, transport profiles, and limiting packet deliveries. We obtained the test environment by creating the DDS and DDS-XRCE objects using several eProsima implementations and tools for the standards. We monitored the network messages in two ways: 1) Using multiple Gnome Terminator terminals for observation via the human eye during testing. 2) Using Wireshark to save the information of the packets for further examination. We conducted 36 experiments focusing on latency, throughput, and packet loss. As a result of our study, the DDS-XRCE standard is deemed suitable for Internet of Things applications.
Future prospects for investigating ciliate biodiversity
Authors: Rajter Ľubomír , Lu Borong , Rassoshanska Erika , Dunthorn Micah
Published: November 2022

Ciliates have a long history of being central in evolutionary and ecological studies on eukaryotic microorganisms. Although thousands of species have been discovered, their total diversity still remains unknown. Here, we will discuss two unsolved problems that hinder the further exploration of ciliate diversity at the species level, and potential solutions to these problems are proposed. First, ciliate morphospecies are difficult to identify because the different silver stains are not scalable (they do not represent high-throughput methods) and basic supplies are lacking (e.g., protargol); a solution may be the development of fluorescent staining techniques. Second, ciliate phylogenetic species are difficult to identify because of extensive paralogy in nuclear-protein-coding genes; a solution may be to concentrate on sequencing mitochondrial genomes. These two approaches could be integrated into a high-throughput fluorescent-single-cell sorting and mitochondrial genomes sequencing process that would enable the observation and better understanding of ciliate species on a massive scale.
Serahsî’nin Usûlü’nde Hz. Peygamber’in Fiilleri
Authors: Dayhan Ahmet Tahir
Published: November 2022

“Mekâsıdü’ş-şerîa” üzerinde yapılacak çalışmaların en önemli adımlarından biri; Hz. Peygamber (s.a.v.)’in söz ve fiillerini taksîme, tasarruflarını tasnîfe tabi tutmak olmalıdır. Hz. Peygamber’in vasfı belli olan ve olmayan (mutlak) fiillerinin, onlara tâbî olma bakımından ümmetine neyi zorunlu kıldığı/kılmadığı; re’y ve ictihâdının vahyin hangi kısmında ele alınması gerektiği; şahsına mahsus fiiller ile “zelle” ve “sehiv” sayılan tasarruflarının da “ittibâ” alanına girip girmediği gibi temel bazı soru(n)lar karşısında, klasik kaynakların konuya hangi bakış açısıyla yaklaştıklarını tespit etmek önem arz etmektedir. Fıkıh metodolojisinin kurucu şahsiyetlerinden ve Hanefî mezhebinin önde gelen usulcülerinden Şemsü’l-Eimme es-Serahsî (400/1010-483/1090), Usûl-i Fıkh’a dair kaleme aldığı eserinde, Hz. Peygamber’in Fiilleri’ne tahsis ettiği müstakil bir babda, konuyu muhaliflerinin delillerini de tartışarak incelemektedir. Kendisinden önceki Hanefî usulcülerden Kerhî (ö. 340/951) ve Cessâs (ö. 370/980)’ın görüşlerini tahlil eden Serahsî; Hz. Peygamber’in fiil ve tasarruflarını “ittibâ”, “iktidâ”, “teessî” gibi kavramlar çerçevesinde incelemektedir. Allah Rasûlü (s.a.v.)’nün re’y ve ictihâdına da geniş şekilde temas eden Serahsî, O’nun hüküm koymadaki “metodu” üzerine görüşlerini delillendirmekte; Hz. Peygamber’in hatâ edip edemeyeceği veya ona muhâlefetin mümkün olup olamayacağı gibi hassas konuları âyet ve hadislerden örnekler getirerek irdelemektedir. Araştırmamız, Fıkıh Usûlü ile Hadis Usûlü’nün kesişim noktalarından biri olan “nebevî fiiller” konusunu, İslâm “usûl” geleneğinin kadîm bir temsilcisinin bakışıyla takdim etmeyi hedeflemektedir.
Transhumant Pastoralism and Farmer-Grazier Conflicts in the Ndop Plain, North West Region, Cameroon
Authors: Buba Umaru Hassan
Published: November 2022

This study examines the impacts of rainfall variability on transhumant pastoralist activities and farmer/herder conflicts in the Ndop plain. Using a mixed methods approach, inter-annual rainfall fluctuations, coefficient of variations (CV) were used to establish variability while the rainfall Seasonality was used to identify seasonal contrast. 150 questionnaires were administered to purposively selectednative crop farmers and Mbororo Fulani herders.. The annual rainfall variability is shown by a coefficient of variation of 18.11%, decreasing trend, and a high inter-annual variability around the mean of 1802.95mm. The impacts include; drying up of pasture lands and a fall in the quality of pasture 100%(150), shrinking of river courses and water shortages 84% (126), Outbreak of diseases and pests 88.6%(133), and fluctuations in the transhumant calendar 67.3%(101). The result has been conflicts due to competition over constrained resources and stray animals that destroy crops during transhumance. The stakeholders in this sector need to include climate change communication in this domain and improve rangeland management policies to reflect the state of environmental degradation.
The Use of Physical Screening Tools to Identify Injury Risk Within Pre-Professional Ballet Dancers: An Integrative Review
Authors: MacSweeney Niall , Pedlar Charles , Cohen Daniel , Mahaffey Ryan , Price Phil
Published: November 2022

Objective. To conduct an integrative review of all relevant research investigating the physical risk factors for injury within pre-professional ballet dancers, to provide insight that may benefit practitioners within these institutions and highlight areas for future research within this specialised population. Design. Studies were identified from the following electronic databases: MEDLINE via PubMed, SPORTDiscus via EBSCOhost, and Web of Science Core Collection via Web of Science. 8,415 titles were identified during the electronic search process. Five studies satisfied the inclusion criteria and were included in the review. The modified Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) scale for observational studies was used to assess study quality. Results. The review identified that the following physical characteristics may influence prospective injury risk in pre-professional ballet dancers: age and maturation status, anthropometrics and body composition, strength and power, joint mobility and range of motion, specific dance function, and cardiorespiratory fitness. Limitations. The research identified lacked methodological quality. This, combined with the low number of studies identified, makes the design of screening protocols challenging for practitioners. Originality. Despite the number of pre-professional balletic institutions worldwide, previous reviews have not used a systematic search strategy or investigated both sexes in this cohort. Due to the unique demands of ballet, an understanding of the interaction between injury and physical characteristics is a critical step in order to reduce injury burden. Conclusions. This review succeeded in determining risk factors for injury within this population, but, due to insufficient evidence, could not provide robust screening recommendations.

In the context of the current geopolitical situation and energy uncertainty, the aim of the paper is to affirm the use of biomass as a domestic energy source and to point out guidelines for its proper and efficient use. According to the official data of the Ministry of Mining and Energy of the Republic of Serbia, biomass represents by far the greatest potential for renewable energy in the country. Over 60% of the estimated potential of renewable energy in the Republic of Serbia belongs to biomass (not counting large hydropower plants). The possibility of energy use of biomass, further, does not depend on weather conditions, time of day or season, unlike other renewable energy sources such as wind and solar energy. In addition to this and other advantages that biomass as the only carbon - CO2 - neutral renewable fuel has, it should be noted that facilities for the conversion of energy from biomass through combustion are relatively technologically simple and can be produced entirely in our country. If these facilities were used in district heating systems with the possibility of using thermal energy for technological processes in the cultivation and processing of agricultural products even out of the heating season, the potentials and effects of biomass utilization would increase. Facilities for processing and finishing agricultural products (such as dryers) can also be largely produced in the Republic of Serbia. Advantages and the degree of utilization of biomass as a renewable energy source are even more pronounced when used in cogeneration plants. When all the above is considered, it can be concluded that the use of biomass can take a significant place in the overall reindustrialization of our country, which will be discussed in more detail in this paper. The paper also points out some of the obstacles to the realization of these efforts as well as examples of good practice.
Povećanje učešća obnovljivih izvora energije u sistemima za daljinsko grejanje

Published: November 2022

This paper presents and elaborates the proposal for reorganization of district heating sector in the Republic of Serbia, in order to increase its efficiency, as well as the proposal for the introduction of a self-sustaining incentives system for investments in infrastructure and thermal systems using renewable energy sources (RES). The goal is to reduce the use of non-renewable energy sources, in order to mitigate environmental pollution, as well as to decrease the share of electricity used for space heating. That way, also the electric power system (EPS) would be relaxed and the degree of primary energy utilization would be increased, by avoiding its conversion into electric and then back into thermal energy. As a comparative example of the applicability of the reorganization proposal, the paper presents experiences from the process of reorganization of the electricity sector in the Republic of Serbia. Within the presented proposal of the incentives system, descriptions of the methods necessary for the establishment of such a system are given, too. Acceptance and implementation of these proposals would contribute to increasing the participation of RES in district heating systems and result in achieving the aforementioned, positive effects of wider social impact and significance.
Reclaming Identity through Communal Voice: Narrating Self-Recognition in Leila Aboulela’s The Kindness of Enemies
Authors: Asadi Amjad Fazel , Jalali Farahani Bahare
Published: November 2022

This study provides a postcolonial narratological analysis of The Kindness of Enemies to explore different layers of identity formation for Muslim immigrants. The novel chronicles the dilemmas Natasha, a Muslim professor of history that teaches at a Scottish university and studies Imam Shamil’s jihad, experiences in maintaining an independent sense of identity far from a Westernized mindset. A stylistic axis whereby the author mirrors this complexity is the simultaneous utilization of the first-person verbatim narrative of Natasha and the third-person omniscient historical narrative of Shamil with three distinct focalizers. Such structure highlights the significance of spaciotemporality, narrator, focalizer, and communal voice. The study pinpoints that both parts of the novel are narrated by a single narrator (Natasha). As her supposedly assimilated identity of an exemplary university lecturer is tarnished, she realizes the futility of hybridity that has left her in state of adrift-ness. Narrating historical events through the focalization of three imperialized characters, she becomes the communal voice of those whose identity is besmeared by imperialism and those who attempt to resist, which in turn allows her to exercise agency.

Metabolic activity of immunocompetent cells in assessment of individual cold sensitivity
Authors: Patrakeeva VP , Schtaborov VA
Published: November 2022

The rapid switch on of the transient short-term responses involved in adjustment of homeostasis plays a key role in human adaptation to low temperatures that is essential for adjustment to low-temperature environment. The network of signaling pathways together with metabolic regulators provide sufficient plasticity of the cells of immune system, the normal function of which is extremely important for successful human adaptation. Sufficient energy supply to immunocompetent cells makes it possible to form an adequate immune response to any negative factor and to ensure adaptive functional rearrangements. The study was aimed to assess the variants of the immunocompetent cell metabolic pathways involved in acquiring individual cold sensitivity. A total of 180 people aged 25–55 (130 females, 50 males) were assessed before and after the short-term whole body cooling. Enzyme immunoassay was used to define the levels of IL10, IL6, TNFα, irisin, transferrin, sTfR, HIF-1α, Sirt3 in peripheral blood and cell lysate. The levels of glycogen (cytochemical methods) and ATP (luciferin-luciferase assay) in lymphocytes were defined. The decrease in peripheral blood lymphocyte levels after cooling was indicative of the formation of immediate adaptive response and activation of glycolysis amid less intense inflammatory response. The increase in the levels of circulating lymphocytes after the cold esposure was associated with activation of inflammatory responses. The lower ratio of HIF-1α/SIRT3 metabolic regulators was found in the surveyed volunteers who showed no changes in the levels of lymphocytes. This indicated predominance of mitochondrial activity in adaptation to low temperatures.

A company needs sufficient non-current assets and current assets for the successful running of the business and maximization of the wealth of the firm. Especially, in the short-run current assets or working capital management plays an important role in the success or failure of the firm and its impact on its profitability of the firm. This article aims to examine the impact of working capital management on the performance and as well as the market value of companies in the logistics industry. This study used the fixed effect panel data analysis with a data set covering six logistics companies listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange, India for the period 2013-2022. To estimate the relationship between working capital management and the performance of companies used Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), and Market value to Book value (MVBV) as dependent variables in the research models. The main results indicate that the positive relationship between working capital, market value, and profitability is not very clear. Logistics companies’ sales are negatively associated with MVBV and ROE of logistics companies. The cash conversion cycle is found statistically not significant, and the relationship between CCC and profitability is negative. Overall, of the study, it is concluded that working capital has an impact on the profitability of logistics companies in India.

Pancasila is the thought that the function of punishment is no longer just a deterrent, but also an effort to rehabilitate and reintegrate the social inmates of prisons. Prisons have an important role in the justice system. There are 4 main functions of the Penitentiary, namely; 1) Guidance; 2) Assistance 3) Supervision, and 4) Community Research. The existence of the Correctional Care Community Group (Pokmas Lipas) is very important in supporting the empowerment of correctional clients in the community, Pokmas have their respective roles to support the reintegration of correctional clients so that they can return to the community. The implementation of the correctional system which is the implementation of Pancasila values, namely coaching the personality of prisoners, is carried out by a coaching program with forms of coaching in the form of religious education, general education, skills courses, recreation, sports, arts and job training.

Radiation is said to be energy that is in motion and manifests itself everywhere we look in the form of waves or particles which can either useful or dangerous. Since radiation has always existed in the environment since the earth’s origin, daily exposure to varied levels of ionizing radiation is inevitable for humans. Therefore, environmental radioactivity measurements are crucial for measuring the background radiation level caused by naturally occurring radioactive sources with terrestrial and cosmic origins because of these effects on living beings. The aim of this paper is to measure and record the background radiation of various locations evenly distributed across the twenty-one (21) local government areas of Kogi State and use the measured value to produce a reliable and easily accessible background radiation contour map for Kogi State using ArcGIS 10.3. Using a portable RDS-31 Multi-survey meter, the dose rate of background ionizing radiation (BIR) was measured in μSv/hr and the result shows that Ankpa LGA has the lowest mean readings of 0.096 μSv/hr and 0.1682 mSv/yr for the annual equivalent dose rates. Yagba East had the highest mean reading of 0.2300μSv/hr and highest annual equivalent dose rates of 0.4030mSv/yr. The result shows that eventhough the AEDE are greater than the 0.07mSv/yr global average value, however they are all below the ICRP’s recommended permitted limits of 1.00mSv/yr. This demonstrates that there are no immediate radiological health effects on the general people as a result of BIR exposure in the examined locations. It is recommended that the various human activities that raise BIR levels in the regions should be reduced and that activity concentrations of natural radionuclides and BIR levels in the state be periodically assessed.

Identification of individuals using face masks has become a widespread concern as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. One critical method of preventing pandemic spread is for persons to constantly wear masks in public places. To achieve the maximum possible accuracy, new approaches for face mask detection are being developed that utilize convolutional neural networks. These novel techniques attempt to construct a binary face classifier capable of categorizing pixels in an image as either faces or non faces. In this study, we created a model using Resnet18 and MobileNetv2 in order to obtain trustworthy results for picture categorization. Additionally, we constructed our model for detecting live webcam feeds utilizing Transfer Learning on these deep convolutional neural networks, as well as ImageNet weights and OpenCV.

Published: November 2022

21year old gentleman presented with insidious onset, gradually progressive dysphagia for 2 weeks. There was no other associated signs or symptoms. Initial blood workup, radiological investigations and diagnostic interventions were non-contributory. In the meantime, dysphagia worsened and was found to be progressive with advancement of the day. Oesophageal manometric studies showed gradual weakening of peristaltic contractions after a string of repetitive swallows. Repetitive nerve stimulation test and edrophonium test were suggestive of Myasthenia Gravis; Anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody and anti-MuSK antibody were negative. He was initiated on Pyridostigmine and had improvement of dysphagia after a few days. He has now achieved remission. Hence, we present a curious case of Seronegative Myasthenia Gravis in a young gentleman who presented with only dysphagia recovered with Pyridostigmine.
Hic sunt leones reloaded: Elements for a critique of disciplinary self-(af)filiation within professional white philosophy in South Africa
Authors: Alloggio Sergio
Published: November 2022

The recent institutional consolidation of feminist philosophy, African and Africana philosophies, sociology of knowledge and decolonial theory have brought professional philosophers face-to-face with the repressed side of Western philosophy. This essay, drawing on the theoretical framework developed in my previous article ‘Hic sunt leones’, investigates the role played by professional narcissism and resistance to history in the philosopher’s self-image and imaginary, with a particular focus on professional white philosophy in South Africa. The pedagogical aspects of philosophical apprenticeship will be examined psychoanalytically, and explored in their transferential components. Such a psychoanalytic reading will also engage with current conflicts within the South African philosophical field, promoting a shared space for negotiations. However, without adequate introjection of, and progressive identification with, African philosophers and their work, professional white philosophers in South Africa run the twofold risk of replicating regressive forms of disciplinary parenthood while institutionalising neocolonial forms of academic (af)filiations.

Early Greek Philosophy and Traditional Religious Beliefs
Authors:   Institute for the Philosophy and Law, Novosibirsk State University, Brovkin V
Published: November 2022

The article discusses the factors that influenced the formation of criticism of traditional religious beliefs in early Greek philosophy. It is established that the first factor is the internal development of Greek philosophy associated with the solution of the problem of the arche. In the philosophy of Thales, Anaximander, Anaximenes, Pythagoras, Parmenides, Melissus, Empedocles, there has been a departure from religious beliefs. Xenophanes and Heraclitus have already criticized mythology, anthropomorphism, and mantic in full force. Hippo and Anaxagoras were accused of godlessness. The second factor is the socio–political instability in Greece of the VI–V centuries BC. This circumstance contributed to the strengthening of distrust among Greek philosophers towards socio-political, moral and religious institutions.
Aristotle: Historical Images of the Philosopher in Russian Literature (18th early 20th centuries)
Authors:   Institute of Philosophy and Law of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Egorova O
Published: November 2022

In this article, I analyze some fragments from scientific, philosophical, journalistic and literary works of Russian authors of the 18th – early 20th centuries, containing references to the personality of Aristotle. Based on them, I attempt to reconstruct some of the traditional historical images of the philosopher in Russian culture (“sage”, “scientist”, “universal man”, “genius”, “ideal philosopher”). I determine the semantic content of each historical image, its features, and transformation while tracing their relationship with the ancient Russian tradition. I conclude that the images of Aristotle as a “sage” and “scientist” have deep historic roots while the rest of the images began to take form in the 18th century and later. The paper is supplemented by a complete bibliographic list of the studied works.
Ριζωματα – four foundations of the universe
Authors:   Institute of Philosophy and Law, NSU, Afonasina A , Kovalchuk X
Published: November 2022

Empedocles believed that everything in the world could be explained by four “roots” and two acting forces. Since Aristotle's time, these four “roots” have been called “elements,” which has greatly distorted the perception of Empedocles' philosophy. Let us ask ourselves - can we really attribute to Empedocles the idea of “roots” as material particles endowed with definite and clearly defined characteristics? A careful reading of the surviving fragments of Empedocles' poem confronts us rather with uncertainty. Empedocles resorts to various ways of representing them, thus confusing the listener. One has the feeling that, with the numerous epithets and names inherent in the roots, he himself was only trying to find the best way of understanding them. In this article we turn to a large number of fragments in which names, epithets, characteristics, or metaphorical descriptions of roots are mentioned. After carefully analyzing them and offering our own translations into Russian, we come to the conclusion that the understanding of the roots cannot be reduced to simple elements. They are described as gods, as natural elements, as the smallest particles, from the mixture of which everything in the world can be composed. This study shows once again that Empedocles was an outstanding and original thinker, whose ideas cannot be reduced to simple and comprehensible forms.
Tolstoy's Treatment on Art and Later Wittgenstein

The article outlines the main ideas of the book by Henry W. Pickford Thinking with Tolstoy and Wittgenstein. Expression, Emotion, and Art. Pickford's book is the first concrete and well-argued study of Tolstoy's influence on the late Wittgenstein. In the first part of the article, I analyze (independently of Pickford) the main ideas of Tolstoy's treatise on art. Then I briefly present (and again independently of Pickford) the skeptical paradox (regarding the meaning and following the rule) and the overcoming of the skeptical paradox in Wittgenstein's texts. In the final part I put numerous parallels (noted by Pickford) between the ideas of Tolstoy's treatise on art and later Wittgenstein.

Published: November 2022

Along with the high demand for shrimp, the production challenges faced by practitioners are increasing in Indonesia, one of which is in Lampung region. Various basic monitoring techniques regarding the environment and farmed shrimp are needed to control production sustainability. This present study aimed to identify the bacterial community profile in the rearing pond water and intestinal tract of Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei. Illumina-based sequencing was chosen to determine the bacterial community using the V3-V4 region of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene. Sequence data revealed the differences in bacterial community structure between the rearing water and shrimp intestines. Proteobacteria was the most prevalent phylum in the rearing water (W.B), accounting for 45.29 %, followed by Cyanobacteria, Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Actinobacteria, and Fusobacteria. In the shrimp intestinal tract (S.B), Cyanobacteria (35.15 %) dominated the microbiota, followed by Proteobacteria, Saccharibacteria, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Verrucomicrobia, TM6 (Dependentiae), and Firmicutes. Cyanobacteria were higher in the shrimp intestines (35.15 %) than in the rearing water (26.63 %). In addition, Escherichia-Shigella was the most common genera in the rearing water and shrimp intestines with different relative abundance. Cyanobacteria and Escherichia-Shigella highly detected in the rearing water and shrimp’s intestines might indicate that pond water had been polluted. Further investigation is necessary on the correlation of Cyanobacteria in the shrimp intestines with water pollution, proven by the dominance of Cyanobacteria and Escherichia-Shigella. These findings provide basic information to enhance our understanding of the microbial community and their roles in the shrimp culture environment to improve the quantity and quality of the yield and support its sustainability.
HIGHLIGHTS

GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
Consciousness, Revelation, and Confusion
Authors: Roelofs Luke
Published: November 2022

Critics have charged constitutive panpsychism with inconsistency. Panpsychists reject physicalism for its seeming inability to explain consciousness. In making this argument, they commit themselves to the idea of "revelation": that we know, in some especially direct way, the nature of consciousness. Yet they then attribute properties to ourconsciousness---like being constituted out of trillions of simpler experiential parts---that conflict with how it seems introspectively. This seems to pose a dilemma: either revelation is false, and physicalism remains intact, or revelation is true, and constitutive panpsychists are hoist by their own petard. But this is too simplistic. Constitutive panpsychists can say that our minds contain innumerable phenomenal states that are "confused" with one another: immediately present to introspection only en masse, not individually. Accepting revelation does not require ignoring the attentional, conceptual, and interpretive limitations of introspection, and these familiar limitations remove the tension between panpsychism and relevation.

Classifying the Evolving Mask Debate: A Transferable Machine Learning Framework
Authors: Warnken Julia , Gokhale Swapna S.
Published: November 2022

Anti-maskers represent a community of people that opposes the use of face masks on grounds that they infringe personal freedoms. This community has thoroughly exploited the convenience and reach of online social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter to spread discordant information about the ineffectiveness and harm caused by masks in order to persuade people to shun their use. Automatic detection and demoting of anti-mask tweets is thus necessary to limit their damage. This is challenging because the mask dialogue continuously evolves with creative arguments that embed emerging knowledge about the virus, changing socio-political landscape, and present policies of public health officers and organizations. Therefore, this paper builds a transferrable machine learning framework that can separate between anti-mask and pro-mask tweets from longitudinal data collected at four epochs during the pandemic. The framework extracts content, emotional, and engagement features that faithfully capture the patterns that are relevant to anti-mask rhetoric, but ignores those related to contextual details. It trains two ensemble learners and two neural network architectures using these features. Ensemble classifiers can identify anti-mask tweets with approximately 80% accuracy and F1-score from both individual and combined data sets. The invariant linguistic features extracted by the framework can thus form the basis of automated classifiers that can efficiently separate other types of falsehoods and misinformation from huge volumes of social media data.

Objectives: Hemoglobin constant spring (Hb CS) is a point mutational defect associated with α thalassemia. The aims of this study were to compare the hematological profiles between different Hb CS genotypes and to estimate the range for Zone 2 peak using capillary electrophoresis (CE) with different Hb CS genotypes. Methods: For this cross-sectional study, patient blood samples that showed a positive peak in zone 2 of CE were selected. Hemoglobin and DNA of the samples were investigated to ascertain the presence and levels of non-deletional and deletional α thalassemia. The results were statistically analyzed. Results: Of the 137 samples investigated, 118 (86.1%) were positive for termination codon Hb CS mutation. Heterozygous Hb CS was found in 92 (67.2%), compound heterozygous Hb CS in 22 (16.1%), and homozygous Hb CS in four (2.9%) samples. The ranges of Hb CS level for heterozygous Hb CS, compound heterozygous Hb CS, and homozygous Hb CS were within 0.2–2.7%, 0.3–2.2%, and 4.5–5.5%, respectively. Significant hematological differences in the Hb level, mean cell volume, mean cell hemoglobin, red cell distribution width, red blood cell count, and Hb CS level were observed between heterozygous, homozygous, and compound heterozygous Hb CS. Conclusions: In view of the overlapping prevalence range of Hb CS level for heterozygous and compound heterozygous Hb CS, only Hb CS level within the range 4.5–5.5% was helpful in the diagnosis of homozygous Hb CS.
Letramento crítico e teoria socio-histórico e cultural: aproximações e reflexões sobre desenvolvimento e constituição do sujeito
Authors: Effgen de Aguiar André
Published: November 2022

Este artigo pretende buscar aproximações entre a Teoria Socio-Histórico e Cultural (VYGOTSKY, 2007 [1934]; LURIA, 1988, 2012; MOLON, 2011) e a Teoria dos Letramentos (KLEIMAN, 1995, 2006; ROJO, 2009; SOARES, 2003; STREET, 2003, 2014; GEE, 1991, 2000), com ênfase no Letramento Crítico (CASSANY; CASTELLÀ, 2010; CARBONIERI, 2016; MENEZES DE SOUZA, 2011; JANKS, 2016; JORDÃO, 2016). Por meio dessas aproximações, refletimos sobre conceitos vygotiskianos como aprendizagem, desenvolvimento e constituição do sujeito, percebendo possíveis pontos de conexão entre as teorias e, a partir dos pontos de interseção encontrados e embasados nos princípios do Letramento Crítico, apontamos mais um caminho para o ensino de línguas: a promoção do entendimento crítico e consciente da nossa constituição plural e sócio-histórica, no intuito de evitar a propagação e perpetuação de discursos hegemônicos, estruturalistas e coloniais, diminuindo, assim, preconceitos e violência em nossa sociedade.
Indecent Bodies in Early Modern Visual Culture

Published: November 2022

The life-like depiction of the body became a central interest and defining characteristic of the European Early Modern period that coincided with the establishment of which images of the body were to be considered ‘decent’ and representable, and which disapproved, censored, or prohibited. Simultaneously, artists and the public became increasingly interested in the depiction of specific body parts or excretions. This book explores the concept of indecency and its relation to the human body across drawings, prints, paintings, sculptures, and texts. The ten essays investigate questions raised by such objects about practices and social norms regarding the body, and they look at the particular function of those artworks within this discourse. The heterogeneous media, genres, and historical contexts north and south of the Alps studied by the authors demonstrate how the alleged indecency clashed with artistic intentions and challenges traditional paradigms of the historiography of Early Modern visual culture.
Expulsados de la Historia : El
argumento histórico en la polémica
antijudía hispana (siglos IV-VII)
Authors: González-Salinero Raúl
Published: November 2022

Following the previous patristic tradition, the Hispano-Christian authors
oriented the historical interpretation as an essential element in the anti-
Jewish discourse around the concept of the Salvation History. With the
coming of the Christ, the Jews are ‘evicted’ from History in favour of the Verus
Israel. The Augustinian theory of the ‘witness people’ would be assumed
with probative value within providentialist history to the detriment of the
ancient ‘chosen people’. Subjected by divine design to Christian political
power, the Jews suffer the deserved punishment for their innumerable
sins. The inheritance of this stigma and the inveterate Jewish unbelief will
arouse divine reprobation while allowing the Gentile people, guided by the
light of the Christ, to be uniquely incorporated into the Salvation History.
