Study Of Living Al-Qur’an Analysis: Tale Jei Tradition For Hajj Jama'ah In Koto Petai Kerinci Indonesia
Authors: Amzaludin  , Ahmad Rozy Ride  , Mutmainnah Aini
Published: December 2023

The study of the living Al-Qur’an tradition of Tale Jei in Koto Petai village uses qualitative-descriptive research methods by describing the facts of the reality of the data that is there for the data collection method, namely by interview and documentation methods to analyze the data obtained from various sources and then describe the results of the analysis. Tale Jei in Kerinci is a legacy of the cultural traditions of ninik mamak or previous scholars, especially in the village of Koto Petai, routinely holding this traditional event before releasing the pilgrims, which in the process contains all about the events of Hajj starting from the pillars of Hajj, Hajj obligations, Hajj requirements, Hajj prohibitions made and sung in the form of songs (Tale). With the help of the living Al-Qur’an, the author will analyze Karl Mannheim's Sociology of Knowledge theory, which focuses on three main points: objective, expressive, and documentary. From the results of the analysis, the author found the verses contained in this tradition by using the Living Al-Qur’an Study of the Tale Jei tradition in Koto Petai village, including 1) Surah al-Mujādalah (58: 11), 2) Surah Āli Imrān (3:97), 3) Surah al-Nahl (16:97), 4) Surah Fāṭir (35:29), and then reveal the spirit of the implementation of the tradition.

The article discusses the theoretical and methodological features of public-private partnership in the implementation of economic activities of territorial communities. It is proved that PPP in the process of implementing infrastructure projects can take various forms that do not deny the basic principles of partnership. The approach to managing the generated and transferred assets through a special purpose vehicle (SPV) is quite common. It is clarified that PPP is a complex mechanism of institutionally defined mutually beneficial organizational, legal and economic relations of public administration entities with private economic entities which are carried out in various spheres of socio-economic activity. The authors prove that PPP models differ in the degree of risk sharing and the level of private sector involvement, and that it is quite common to use a special purpose vehicle (SPV) to manage the assets formed and transferred on the basis of a project agreement which reflects the obligations of the enterprise, the obligations of the public partner, cases of default, the rights of termination of each party and the remuneration of the SPV. Keywords: public-private partnership, territorial communities, public sector, private sector.
A comparison of concept-based instruction and a deductive approach in teaching English grammar
Authors: Hieng Sophon , Thlang Sondom , Nget Seanghai
Published: December 2023

The purpose of this research was to determine which teaching method was more effective in teaching English grammar. Using a matched control experimental design, 33 pairs of primary student teachers at Battambang Teacher Education College were equally assigned into two groups, the control and experimental groups, based on their placement test scores. The experimental group was taught using concept-based instruction (CBI), while the control group was taught using a deductive approach. A post-test was used to measure the participants’ grammar performance after the teaching of both approaches, while a students’ engagement observation checklist and a satisfaction questionnaire were used for observing their learning engagement and levels of satisfaction with CBI, respectively. Based on the results of the post-test, no significant difference in the student teachers’ grammar scores was found. The results of the observation checklist indicated that there was a high level of learning engagement in the experimental group in terms of ‘Initiative’ and ‘Effort’ composition scales, while the ‘Disruptive’ and ‘Inattentive’ scales were low. Analysis of the satisfaction questionnaire indicated that the experimental group was ‘satisfied’ with CBI. They expressed that CBI could help them improve their grammar ability and provide them with confidence in learning grammar despite the difficulty with the language of instruction and the need for cooperation among peers. Based on these findings, some pedagogical implications and recommendations for further study were discussed.
Racisme anti-Noir, profilage racial et système de protection de la jeunesse au Québec
Authors: Boatswain-Kyte Alicia , Dejean Barbara Francia , Diakho Maryam
Published: December 2023

L’expérience des familles Noires au sein des systèmes de protection de la jeunesse a rarement été examinée sous le regard du racisme anti-Noir. La perspective antiraciste à l’égard du système de protection de la jeunesse est presque absente au Québec. Cet article propose une réflexion critique sur les résultats obtenus lors d’une recherche effectuée sur la surreprésentation des enfants Noirs signalés à la Direction de la protection de la jeunesse (DPJ). Il cherche à comprendre comment le profilage racial, en tant que pratique institutionnelle, est opérationnalisé et maintenu dans le traitement différentiel des enfants Noirs.
Les enjeux du traitement sociojudiciaire de l’exposition à la violence conjugale en protection de la jeunesse
Authors: Vincent Alexandra
Published: December 2023

S’appuyant sur une recension d’écrits, cet article présente les enjeux du traitement sociojudiciaire de l’exposition à la violence conjugale dans les systèmes de protection de la jeunesse. Ces enjeux portent sur la conceptualisation de la violence conjugale, la construction de la compromission de la sécurité et du développement et le biais de genre. Quinze ans après l’intégration de l’exposition à la violence conjugale dans la Loi sur la protection de la jeunesse, cet article souligne quelques implications pour la pratique, militant pour un changement de paradigme qui pourrait s’articuler autour d’une analyse genrée de la violence conjugale.
Se défendre, se taire ou renoncer ?
Authors: Coupienne Marilyn
Published: December 2023

L’autrice analyse les procès-verbaux d’audience de dossiers judiciaires au moment où le tribunal déclare la sécurité ou le développement de l’enfant compromis pour négligence. Elle documente la participation des familles lors de l’audience, en termes de temps de parole et de dépôt de pièces documentaires, et compare les recommandations de la Direction de la protection de la jeunesse aux ordonnances rendues par le tribunal dans sa décision judiciaire. Elle conclut que les rapports de pouvoir présents à la Chambre de la jeunesse affectent la participation des familles au processus judiciaire, en limitant leur capacité à présenter une preuve à l’audience et à influencer la décision du tribunal.
Protéger des mineur·e·s au civil ou au pénal : dynamiques contrastées de la contrainte à des fins de protection
Authors: Bugnon Géraldine , Vernay Olivia
Published: December 2023

Cet article interroge les dynamiques de la contrainte à des fins de protection de l’enfance dans la sphère pénale et civile en Suisse. Basé sur des dossiers et des entretiens avec des juges, il décrit la manière dont la logique protectionnelle se conjugue dans la sphère pénale avec des impératifs sécuritaires, donnant lieu à un « continuum de la contrainte ». Dans la sphère civile se déploie une contrainte au spectre large et à l’intensité variable, pour réguler des « déviances parentales » aux contours flous et controversés. L’article souligne finalement le tiraillement entre souplesse du cadre juridique et procéduralisation qui traverse ce champ.
Du paternalisme carcéral
Authors: Sallée Nicolas
Published: December 2023

Cet article porte sur le recours à l’isolement, comme moyen de production de la discipline, dans une unité fermée montréalaise pour jeunes contrevenants. Il montre que l’isolement, au-delà des seules « mesures d’isolement », s’étend à un ensemble de mesures qui, pour des raisons légales, sont rebaptisées « mesures de retrait ». L’analyse de ces mesures, et des tentatives de la direction de l’unité pour en encadrer l’usage, suggère que ce jeu avec les mots (et avec le droit) est lié à une forme de paternalisme carcéral qui, au nom d’un mandat de réhabilitation des jeunes, tend à reléguer au second plan les préoccupations relatives à leurs droits.
La professionnalisation des familles d’accueil québécoises
Authors: Guénette Martine , Ringuette Patricia , Chouinard Isabelle
Published: December 2023

Au sein de l’accueil familial, plusieurs modifications législatives ont instauré une logique de prestation de services entraînant les familles d’accueil (FA) dans une lutte visant une meilleure reconnaissance professionnelle et une amélioration des conditions de pratique. Cet article théorique analyse le processus de professionnalisation des FA québécoises à la lumière de la théorie de la reconnaissance de Renault. Il sera soulevé qu’en dépit de la reconnaissance législative obtenue par le Jugement Grenier, une standardisation des pratiques et un plus grand contrôle des FA sont constatés. Des dénis de reconnaissance subsistent alors pour les FA auxquels l’article proposera des pistes de réflexion.

Intervention de prévention des conduites à risque en réseau d’éducation prioritaire
Authors: Picot-Ngo Clément , Teixeira Maria , Le Roux Enora , Jacquin Paul
Published: December 2023

La « Mission Papillagou » (MP) est une action de prévention des conduites à risque dont le but est de développer les compétences psychosociales des collégien·ne·s. Une étude qualitative mobilisant des entretiens de groupe et des observations flottantes a été menée afin d’identifier les freins et les leviers de l’intervention pour atteindre cet objectif. Il s’agit à travers cet article de questionner les rapports sociaux qui sous-tendent la mise en oeuvre de l’intervention et d’identifier les enjeux qui en découlent. Sans prise en compte du contexte des interactions sociales asymétriques entre intervenant·e·s et élèves, la MP présente le risque de renforcer des identités stigmatisées.
Dépasser le modèle du musée irénique. L’étude du processus de cocréation d’un dispositif de médiation numérique pour les salles des arts du Tout-Monde au Musée des beaux-arts de Montréal
Authors: Delfino Laura
Published: December 2023

Examining participatory practises and inclusion projects requires reflecting on the museum as a political space and questioning the power relationships it nourishes. A review of the literature on the idea of the sense of belonging in a wide variety of disciplinary fields led to an awareness of the different dimensions of that feeling and its integration in the political discourse. More specifically, in terms of this article, the feeling of belonging is problematic in the context of art museums, where the concept is often translated to the institution’s benevolent attitude towards racialized groups that have historically been discriminated against and are not in the habit of visiting museums. When these people are invited to collaborate with the museal institution, the co-creation process generally proceeds according to codes established by the institution. This tendency to adopt a charitable position towards the Other, avoiding any sort of tension, is what we call “a irenic museum” (from the Greek εἰρήνη [eirnê] meaning “peace”). By focusing on what unifies rather than on what divides, the irenical approach avoids conflict in order to foster coexistence with one another.

By analyzing the process of co-creating a digital mediation system for the Arts of One World galleries at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (MMFA), we suggest a critical look at the design thinking approach centred on the human at PRISM, the museum’s Digital Mediation Innovation Lab. Can we move beyond the limits of the peace museum by promoting equal interaction between those involved?
Islam, Art, and Migration: The Museum of Islamic Art in Berlin, Heimat for Muslim communities?
Authors: Jame Constance
Published: December 2023

À la suite du 11 septembre 2001, la question de la place des communautés musulmanes dans les sociétés européennes a atteint un sommet. Face à l’islamophobie grandissante, politiques et intellectuels ont appelé à montrer une autre image de l’Islam et des citoyens appartenant à cette religion et/ou à ces cultures. Pour effectuer cette tâche, les politiques se sont tournés vers les musées. Quoi de mieux qu’un musée possédant une collection d’arts islamiques pour servir de médiateur entre les citoyens et répondre au « problème musulman » ? Cet intérêt soudain pour les arts de l’Islam s’est traduit par un boom muséal. Berlin, Toronto, Doha, Kuala Lumpur ont vu la naissance de nouveaux musées ou le réaménagement de leurs salles dédiées à ces arts. Mais les arts peuvent-ils aider à déconstruire les clichés et les préjugés, et à réconcilier les citoyens entre eux ? La difficulté rencontrée est que les arts de l’Islam s’arrêtent au XIXe siècle, et ne représentent, de ce fait, qu’un passé révolu de ces cultures. Ce passé est mythifié pour démontrer la beauté de ces cultures face à l’image péjorative de l’Islam contemporain perçu, de manière erronée, sous le regard de l’islamophobie. Entre volonté politique et exposition, il y a un écart de taille.

Toutefois, au-delà de la présentation des objets, la participation inclusive des communautés musulmanes pourrait être un outil pour faciliter ce dialogue. S’appuyant sur une étude empirique, cet article vise à montrer par l’analyse de deux projets, Multaka et TAMAM, mis en place par le Museum für Islamische Kunst de Berlin, de quelles manières le musée se transforme en lieu d’identité à la fois pour les communautés musulmanes et les réfugiés du Moyen-Orient. En effet, Berlin s’inscrit également dans un autre contexte que celui du 11 septembre, celui de la crise des réfugiés de 2015 qui a notamment réitéré ce questionnement au sujet de l’appartenance des musulmans et de leur patrimoine à l’Allemagne. Le musée par la participation vise à inclure ces communautés, devenant une « zone de contact » entre les communautés et leur patrimoine. Ainsi, il tente de répondre aux attentes de la société en permettant aux communautés de se réapproprier leur patrimoine. Mais jusqu’à quel point ces communautés participent-elles à l’élaboration de nouveaux discours ? Ces voix sont-elles accessibles pour les autres publics dans les salles d’exposition ? Cela permet-il un dialogue entre eux ? Face aux débats sur l’islam, et à la réponse forte du gouvernement allemand par le président Christian Wulff avec sa phrase : « l’islam appartient à l’Allemagne », le musée se veut un Heimat pour les communautés musulmanes. En revanche, définir ce lieu comme unique Heimat des communautés musulmanes ne crée-t-il pas au contraire une zone d’exclusion ? En l’absence de réponses à ces questions, la recherche doit se poursuivre.
De la « participation inclusive » à la « participation citoyenne », comment le musée Stella Matutina s’ancre-t-il dans la transition territoriale de l’île de La Réunion ?
Authors: Noël Nathalie , Rebeyrotte Jean-François
Published: December 2023

It is a fact that the museum today is no longer seen just as a single light in the darkness, a guardian of the temple of human genius, but more as an actor in the society which interacts with it through conservation and presentation for the purpose of knowledge, education and the pleasure of the public.

The scientific and cultural project (Scp) has thus become the most powerful and intimate expression of the museal project, drawing on an analysis of the institution’s vocation and environment. Nevertheless, even though the publics are among the target groups they’re aimed at, the mechanisms to meet them still have trouble taking them seriously into account.

Certainly, identifying them follows a well-established typology, increasingly diverse and continually renewed. Still, these categories derive more from rationales of communication than from appropriation.

Many museums have been able to find a degree of approval by communicating on the reputation of their collections and the attractiveness of their cultural programming; however, there is a negative turn-over of publics over time. Recent events linked to the global COVID-19 pandemic forced them to forge a new relationship with the publics, since events could no longer be staged.

Despite all efforts to democratize and to build public loyalty, museums are still restrained in terms of the official manifestation of inclusion in their scientific and cultural projects.

No doubt one of the main reasons is that inclusion has not yet assumed its full place. Even if we agree to accept the social role of the museum, its position in the scientific and cultural project remains at the discretion of the writers.

This look at the museum’s territorial attachment was developed within the Culture et territoire research program at Île de la Réunion, where inclusive participation was studied from the perspective of the actors’ strategy to understand how certain museums like Stella Matutina interact with their territory and their systemic dimension (social, economic, political, cultural . . .). The analysis also included a study of cultural mediation at Stella Matutina in order to understand how the populations living near the museal institution were involved in their establishment and development within their territory. At the time when the debate asked about inclusion in the political sphere in connection with “citizen participation” and “social justice” (Salguero, 2020), to what extent are museums evolving and participating in the territorial transformation?
La llengua catalana segons els viatgers estrangers de l’últim terç del vuit-cents
Authors: Martí-Badia Adrià
Published: December 2023

Resum: Aquest article estudia les descripcions de la llengua catalana fetes pels viatgers estrangers que van recórrer els territoris de parla catalana en l’últim terç del segle xix. També analitza les observacions i percepcions lingüístiques d’aquests sobre la llengua catalana i sobre l’ús que en fan els habitants d’aquests territoris. En relació amb el segon objectiu, ens interessa saber si reconeixien que la llengua que parlaven els valencians és la mateixa que la dels catalans, mallorquins i altres veïns de la catalanofonia; quina posició ocupa la llengua catalana entre la resta de llengües romàniques; si el català té el mateix estatus que el castellà o el francès o bé el consideraven un dialecte. En molts casos no parlen de la llengua amb tant de detall perquè l’objectiu dels seus viatges era un altre, però sovint de les seves diferents afirmacions podem deduir els seus posicionaments per a respondre aquestes preguntes. En una època, finals del vuit-cents, on la filologia romànica era una disciplina de recent creació i no estava plenament acceptat que el català és una llengua romànica independent.Paraules clau: llengua catalana, historiografia lingüística, literatura de viatges, estatus i nom de la llengua catalana, usos lingüísticsAbstract: This paper examines the descriptions of the Catalan language by foreign travellers who travelled through the Catalan-speaking territories in the last third of the 19th century. It also analyses their observations and linguistic perceptions of the Catalan language, as well as the language spoken by the inhabitants of these territories. Regarding the second objective, we are particularly interested in knowing if they recognise that the language spoken by Valencians is the same as that of the Catalans, Majorcans, and other neighbours of the Catalan-speaking world; what position occupy the Catalan language among the rest of the Romance languages; if they consider that Catalan has the same status as Spanish and French or if they considered it was a dialect. In many cases they do not talk about the language in such detail because the purpose of their travels was different, but often from their different descriptions and statements we can deduce their positions and opinions to answer these questions. In the late 19th century, when Romance philology was a recently created discipline and it was not fully accepted that Catalan is an independent Romance language.Keywords: Catalan language, linguistic historiography, travel literature, status and name of the Catalan language, language uses

L’adverbi totavia al Curial e Güelfa: un possible italianisme lèxic
Authors: Antolí Martínez Jordi
Published: December 2023

Resum: L’adverbi totavia constitueix un mot singular de la llengua del Curial e Güelfa tant per la freqüència com pels valors que presenta a l’obra. Això ja ha estat observat en diversos estudis previs, que han considerat aquesta excepcionalitat com a resultat de la interferència del francès o de l’italià, o que l’han qualificada de cultisme. En aquest estudi pretenem analitzar l’ús del mot a l’obra i formular una hipòtesi sobre la singularitat que planteja. Per a fer-ho, caracteritzarem l’adverbi semànticament i funcional en català antic, amb una perspectiva diacrònica (s. xii-xvi), i contrastarem els resultats obtinguts amb els del Curial e Güelfa. D’altra banda, i prenent com a fonament diversos estudis sobre els derivats de tota via en francès, italià i castellà, compararem els resultats obtinguts amb les dades sobre aquests adverbis al s. xv. De l’estudi, concloem que la caracterització del mot al Curial e Güelfa no es correspon amb la de totavia en català antic ni amb la del paral·lel francès; en canvi, s’acosta més a la del castellà coetani i, sobretot, a la de l’italià tuttavia. Concloem, doncs, que es tracta d’un –possible– nou italianisme semàntic.Paraules clau: adverbis temporals i aspectuals, català antic, Curial e Güelfa, llengües en contacte, gramaticalitzacióAbstract: The adverb totavia is a singular word in the language of the Curial e Güelfa, both because of its frequency and because of the values it presents in the work. This has already been observed in several previous studies, which have considered this exceptionality as a result of interference from French or Italian, or which have qualified it as cultism. In this study, we intend to analyse the use of the word in the novel and to formulate a hypothesis about its singularity. To do so, we will characterise the adverb semantically and functionally in Old Catalan, with a diachronic perspective (12th-16th century), and we will contrast the results obtained with those of the Curial e Güelfa. On the other hand, and taking as a basis several studies on the derivatives of TOTA VIA in French, Italian and Spanish, we will compare the results obtained with the data on these adverbs in the 15th century. In this study, we conclude that the characterisation of the word in the Curial e Güelfa does not correspond to that of totavia in Old Catalan nor to that of the French parallel; it is closer to the characterisation of the adverb in contemporary Spanish and, above all, to that of the Italian tuttavia. We conclude, therefore, that we are dealing with a –possible– new semantic Italianism. Keywords: temporal and aspectual adverbs, old Catalan, Curial and Güelfa, languages in contact, grammaticalization
Tradició i innovació en la selecció de l’auxiliar de perfet a Curial e Güelfa
Authors: Massanell Messalles Mar
Published: December 2023

Resum: Una de les característiques del català antic que no s’ha conservat, tret d’algunes restes dialectals, és la doble auxiliaritat dels temps de perfet, que es construïen amb haver o ésser (p. ex., ha parlat vs. és arribat). El primer ocorria en les construccions transitives i intransitives agentives, mentre que el segon era emprat en les estatives, esdevenimentals, resultatives de canvi d’estat i de lloc, intransitives pronominals, reflexives directes i passives. Tot i que la substitució de ésser per haver és un procés que es va desenvolupar sobretot durant l’edat moderna i que va culminar en la contemporània, en el català medieval ja se’n detecten indicis. En aquest article, partint del buidatge i de la classificació dels perfets del Curial, identifiquem les mostres en què haver ocorre en lloc de ésser, analitzem els factors que ho poden haver afavorit i els relacionem amb les vies d’entrada de haver assenyalades en treballs previs. Concloem que el Curial manté amb fermesa la doble auxiliaritat i que la innovació hi queda pràcticament restringida a les construccions impersonals relatives amb romandre, sobrar, venir, esdevenir i succeir, les quals contenen un datiu experimentador com a subjecte lògic.Paraules clau: Curial e Güelfa, català antic, selecció de l’auxiliar, construccions impersonals relatives, datiu experimentadorAbstract: One of the characteristics of Old Catalan that has not been preserved, except for some dialectal remains, is double auxiliary of perfect tenses, which were built with haver ‘have’ or ésser ‘be’ (e.g. ha parlat vs. és arribat). Haver occurred in transitive and agentive intransitive constructions, while ésser was used in statives, eventives, resultatives of change of state and change of location, pronominal intransitives, direct reflexives and passives. Although the substitution of ésser for haver is a process developed mainly during Modern Age and culminated in contemporary times, signs of it can already be detected in Medieval Catalan. In this paper, starting from the extraction and classification of perfects in Curial e Güelfa, we identify the samples in which haver occurs instead of ésser, we analyze the factors that may have favored it and we relate them to the entry routes of haver indicated in previous works. We conclude that Curial e Güelfa firmly maintains double auxiliary, innovation being practically restricted to the relative impersonal constructions with romandre ‘remain’, sobrar ‘be left over’, venir ‘come’, esdevenir ‘become’ and succeir ‘happen’, which contain a dative experiencer as a logical subject.Keywords: Curial e Güelfa, Old Catalan, auxiliary selection, relative impersonal constructions, dative experiencer

Authors: Kurtoğlu Necef Özlem , Öndoğan Ziynet
Published: December 2023

In this research, it was aim to investigate the clothing comfort properties of knitted fabrics intended for summer cycling sportswear. Five different fiber types and five different knitted structures commonly used in cycling sportwear were selected and totally 25 fabrics were manufactured by using a seamless circular knitting machine namely Santoni SM8-TOP2V in a controlled manner. To assess the impact of material type and knitted structures on clothing comfort properties, mass per unit area, thickness, air permeability, thermal conductivity, thermal resistance, overall moisture management capability and relative vapour permeability tests were conducted. The statistical significance of variations in the obtained results was evaluated using the analysis of variance (ANOVA) method. In conclusion, the most suitable material and knitted structure have been recommended for summer upper body cycling clothing.
Personal stories as a result of creative activity and a tool for overcoming the fragmentation of everyday life: cultural and philosophical analysis
Authors: Ravochkin Nikita Nikolaevich , Kachay Ilya Sergeevich , Petrov Mikhail Aleksandrovich
Published: December 2023

The object of this research is the fragmented everyday life of social life practices. The subject of the research is personal stories realized in storytelling and considered as the result of the creative activity of the subject and a way to overcome the fragmentation of everyday life of modern culture. The authors consider the fragmentation of everyday life as a factor in the desocialization of the subject and the leveling of unified mechanisms of social interaction. Storytelling is defined as a way for a person to consistently present various storylines and broadcast the principles of their personal existence, creating an effect of belonging among recipients and awakening their imagination. The research substantiates that storytelling resources allow a subject to broadcast personal values, creatively express their individuality through virtual self-presentation and respond to current public demands, thereby overcoming the fragmentation of everyday life. As the conclusions of the research, the authors state that public order and social interaction are conditioned by the influence of the narratives of each subject on the foundation of their own being and the formation of a vector of development of all participants in intersubjective relations through the dissemination of the principles of personal existence in the storytelling system. The authors emphasize the creative nature of personal stories, the creation and telling of which is a prerequisite for the formation of unified principles of social existence due to the transmitted ideas about socially acceptable rules and stable patterns of behavior that become a set of rituals. The authors conclude that personal stories allow the subject to overcome fragmented everyday life, move to a qualitatively new level of normative determination, develop a strategy of self-identity and move from a separate way of being to a holistic existence in the context of intersubjective interactions.

The bulk photovoltaic effect is a second-order nonlinear photoelectric response, which refers to a phenomenon that non-centrosymmetric structural material generates a steady-state photocurrent under uniform light irradiation. The bulk photovoltaic effect has attracted widespread attention due to its open-circuit voltage is not limited by the semiconductor bandgap and power conversion efficiency breaks through the Shockley-Queisser limit. In addition, the bulk photovoltaic effect is closely related to the quantum geometric properties (such as Berry curvature and quantum metric) of solids, thus making it an effective means to study crystal polarization, orbital magnetization, and quantum Hall effects. Two-dimensional (2D) materials are rich in electrical, optical, magnetic, topological properties and their interactions, which can effectively improve the performances of bulk photovoltaic devices (such as expanding response range of bulk photovoltaic effect) and have important research value for exploring basic physical problems. This paper reviews the development process of bulk photovoltaic effect and its physical mechanism. The research progress of bulk photovoltaic effect in 2D materials is discussed in detail, including single component 2D materials, 2D material stacking engineering (such as 2D material homojunctions and heterojunctions), and other factors (such as magnetic field, strain engineering) to generate or regulate the bulk photovoltaic effect response. Finally, the development prospect of two-dimensional bulk photovoltaic effect is prospected.

Published: December 2023

Apicomplexan parasites exhibit tremendous diversity in much of their fundamental cell biology, but study of these organisms using light microscopy is often hindered by their small size. Ultrastructural expansion microscopy (U-ExM) is a microscopy preparation method that physically expands the sample by ~4.5×. Here, we apply U-ExM to the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum during the asexual blood stage of its lifecycle to understand how this parasite is organized in three dimensions. Using a combination of dye-conjugated reagents and immunostaining, we have cataloged 13 different P. falciparum structures or organelles across the intraerythrocytic development of this parasite and made multiple observations about fundamental parasite cell biology. We describe that the outer centriolar plaque and its associated proteins anchor the nucleus to the parasite plasma membrane during mitosis. Furthermore, the rhoptries, Golgi, basal complex, and inner membrane complex, which form around this anchoring site while nuclei are still dividing, are concurrently segregated and maintain an association to the outer centriolar plaque until the start of segmentation. We also show that the mitochondrion and apicoplast undergo sequential fission events while maintaining an association with the outer centriolar plaque during cytokinesis. Collectively, this study represents the most detailed ultrastructural analysis of P. falciparum during its intraerythrocytic development to date and sheds light on multiple poorly understood aspects of its organelle biogenesis and fundamental cell biology.

Malfunction of the CFTR protein results in cystic fibrosis, one of the most common hereditary diseases. CFTR functions as an anion channel, the gating of which is controlled by long-range allosteric communications. Allostery also has direct bearings on CF treatment: the most effective CFTR drugs modulate its activity allosterically. Herein, we integrated Gaussian network model, transfer entropy, and anisotropic normal mode-Langevin dynamics and investigated the allosteric communications network of CFTR. The results are in remarkable agreement with experimental observations and mutational analysis and provide extensive novel insight. We identified residues that serve as pivotal allosteric sources and transducers, many of which correspond to disease-causing mutations. We find that in the ATP-free form, dynamic fluctuations of the residues that comprise the ATP-binding sites facilitate the initial binding of the nucleotide. Subsequent binding of ATP then brings to the fore and focuses on dynamic fluctuations that were present in a latent and diffuse form in the absence of ATP. We demonstrate that drugs that potentiate CFTR’s conductance do so not by directly acting on the gating residues, but rather by mimicking the allosteric signal sent by the ATP-binding sites. We have also uncovered a previously undiscovered allosteric ‘hotspot’ located proximal to the docking site of the phosphorylated regulatory (R) domain, thereby establishing a molecular foundation for its phosphorylation-dependent excitatory role. This study unveils the molecular underpinnings of allosteric connectivity within CFTR and highlights a novel allosteric ‘hotspot’ that could serve as a promising target for the development of novel therapeutic interventions.
Causal role of the frontal eye field in attention-induced ocular dominance plasticity

Previous research has found that prolonged eye-based attention can bias ocular dominance. If one eye long-termly views a regular movie meanwhile the opposite eye views a backward movie of the same episode, perceptual ocular dominance will shift towards the eye previously viewing the backward movie. Yet it remains unclear whether the role of eye-based attention in this phenomenon is causal or not. To address this issue, the present study relied on both the functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) techniques. We found robust activation of the frontal eye field (FEF) and intraparietal sulcus (IPS) when participants were watching the dichoptic movie while focusing their attention on the regular movie. Interestingly, we found a robust effect of attention-induced ocular dominance shift when the cortical function of vertex or IPS was transiently inhibited by continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS), yet the effect was significantly attenuated to a negligible extent when cTBS was delivered to FEF. A control experiment verified that the attenuation of ocular dominance shift after inhibitory stimulation of FEF was not due to any impact of the cTBS on the binocular rivalry measurement of ocular dominance. These findings suggest that the fronto-parietal attentional network is involved in controlling eye-based attention in the ‘dichoptic-backward-movie’ adaptation paradigm, and in this network, FEF plays a crucial causal role in generating the attention-induced ocular dominance shift.

Drought monitoring is crucial for assessing and mitigating the impacts of water scarcity on various sectors and ecosystems. Although traditional drought monitoring relies on soil moisture data, remote sensing technology has have significantly augmented the capabilities for drought monitoring. This study aims to evaluate the accuracy and applicability of two temperature vegetation drought indices (TVDI), TVDINDVI and TVDIEVI, constructed using the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and the Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) vegetation indices for drought monitoring. Using Guangdong Province as a case, enhanced versions of these indices, developed through Savitzky–Golay filtering and terrain correction were employed. Additionally, Pearson correlation analysis and F-tests were utilized to determine the suitability of the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) in correlation with TVDINDVI and TVDIEVI. The results show that TVDINDVI had more meteorological stations passing both significance test levels (P < 0.001 and P < 0.05) compared to TVDIEVI, and the average Pearson’R correlation coefficient was slightly higher than that of TVDIEVI, indicating that TVDINDVI responded better to drought in Guangdong Province. Our conclusion reveals that drought-prone regions in Guangdong Province are concentrated in the Leizhou Peninsula in southern Guangdong and the Pearl River Delta in central Guangdong. We also analyzed the phenomenon of winter-spring drought in Guangdong Province over the past 20 years. The area coverage of different drought levels was as follows: mild drought accounted for 42% to 64.6%, moderate drought accounted for 6.96% to 27.92%, and severe drought accounted for 0.002% to 1.84%. In 2003, the winter-spring drought in the entire province was the most severe, with a drought coverage rate of up to 84.2%, while in 2009, the drought area coverage was the lowest, at 49.02%. This study offers valuable insights the applicability of TVDI, and presents a viable methodology for drought monitoring in Guangdong Province, underlining its significance to agriculture, environmental conservation, and socio-economic facets in the region.

Background

A previous study showed low reliability of 1-h HRV outcomes in participants with spinal cord injury (SCI), but it was not certain whether the low reliability was due to the unrestricted activity of participants. We aimed to investigate test-retest reliability of HRV metrics in individuals with SCI using a 1-h measurement in a supine position.

Methods

Individuals with SCI underwent two sessions of 1-h recording of the time between consecutive R waves (RR-intervals) in a supine position. HRV outcomes were obtained from a single 5-min data segment and for the full 1-h recording. HRV parameters of interest were: standard deviation of all normal-to-normal R-R intervals (SDNN) and square root of the mean of the squared differences between successive R-R intervals (RMSSD) (time domain); and high frequency power (HF), low frequency power (LF), very low frequency power (VLF), ultra-low frequency power (ULF) and total power (TP) (frequency domain). Relative reliability was assessed by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Absolute reliability was assessed by coefficient of variation (CV) and Bland-Altman limits of agreement (LoA).

Results

Data from 37 individuals (14 with tetraplegia and 23 with paraplegia) were included. Relative reliability was higher for the 1-h (ICCs ranged from 0.13–0.71) than for the 5-min duration (ICCs ranged from 0.06–0.50) in the overall SCI group for all HRV metrics. Participants with tetraplegia had lower relative reliability compared to participants with paraplegia in all HRV metrics for the 5-min duration (ICCs ranged from −0.01–0.34 vs. 0.21–0.57). For the 1-h duration, participants with paraplegia showed higher relative reliability than participants with tetraplegia in all HRV metrics (ICCs ranged from 0.18–0.79 vs. 0.07–0.54) except TP (ICC 0.69 vs. 0.82). In terms of absolute reliability, the CVs and LoAs for the 1-h duration were better than for the 5-min duration. In general, time domain metrics showed better reliability than frequency domain metrics for both durations in participants with tetraplegia and paraplegia. The lowest CV and narrowest 95% LoA were found for SDNN in 5-min and 1-h durations overall and in both lesion levels.

Conclusions

The supine position did not provide better reliability compared to unrestricted activity in participants with SCI. HRV analysis using a 5-min duration is of limited value in SCI due to poor reliability. For the 1-h analysis duration, interpretation of the reliability of HRV varies according to lesion level: it is recommended to take lesion level into account when interpreting reliability measures.
