Prédicats, sens, polylexicalité et figement : un parcours heuristique
Authors: Mejri Salah
Published: May 2024

Pour Gaston Gross, étudier rigoureusement la langue revient à en décrire, dans le cadre de la combinatoire libre, l’ensemble des emplois des unités lexicales moyennant l’établissement des paradigmes argumentaux impliqués dans les schémas d’arguments pour les prédicats et l’ensemble des prédicats appropriés pour les arguments. Cette démarche est complétée par la description des séquences figées dont la combinatoire interne est plus ou moins restreinte. L’auteur y consacre son ouvrage de 1996 et une partie de son manuel de 2012. Nous retenons dans cette contribution l’extrême richesse de la réflexion de l’auteur, notamment sur le plan heuristique, en partant des concepts de prédicat, de figement, de polylexicalité et d’opacité sémantique pour montrer combien les suggestions méthodologiques de Gaston Gross ont eu d’impact sur le développement de la discipline linguistique.
Towards Lexicon-Grammar Verbnets Through Lexical Ontologies
Authors: Vetulani Zygmunt , Vetulani Grażyna
Published: May 2024

In this article, we present research directly inspired by the Princeton WordNet lexical ontology project (Miller, Fellbaum), which was a response to the real need for ontologies corresponding to the natural conceptualization common to all language users, within a given natural language, or within a specific sublanguage. Lexical ontologies for a given language or language subsystem determined by the scope of communication needs turn out to be useful and even necessary for constructing formal models of linguistic competence and, consequently, for designing and implementing AI systems with linguistic communicative competence, both passive and active. An important milestone of the research program presented in this work is the acquisition of tools in the form of extensive lexical ontologies of a new type, referred to in this work as Lexicon-Grammar Verbnets. In the article, we refer to the works of authors such as: Alain Colmerauer, Charles Fillmore, Christiane Fellbaum, Gaston Gross, Maurice Gross, Thomas R. Gruber, Richard Kittredge, George A. Miller, Martha Palmer, Kazimierz Polański, and Piek Vossen.

نيوليبرالية في سياق استعماري الاقتصاد الفلسطيني خلال الاستعمار الاستيطاني الصهيوني: قراءة نقدية
Authors: بدر أشرف
Published: May 2024

تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى الاشتباك نقديًّا مع الادعاءات المنطلقة من الاقتصاد السياسي التي ترى أن السلطة الفلسطينية ذات توجه نيوليبرالي، وتتساءل عن مدى دقة هذه المقولة. من أجل ذلك، قدّمت الدراسة عرضًا نظريًا لمضامين النيوليبرالية وأجندتها، متفحصةً مدى انطباقها على حالة السلطة الفلسطينية، وتوسّلت في ذلك مقاربة نقدية لأبرز الأدبيات المنشورة في الموضوع خلال الفترة 2021-1994، واستعانت بالبيانات والمصادر الأولية، وعززت تحليلها بإجراء عدد من المقابلات مع الخبراء والمسؤولين ممن تولّّوا مناصب اقتصادية في السلطة. وانطلقت من افتراض مفاده أنّ تبني السلطة الفلسطينية بعضَ السياسات النيوليبرالية لا يعني بالضرورة صحة الافتراض أنّها نيوليبرالية. وخلصت إلى عدم دقة القول إن السلطة الفلسطينية نيوليبرالية؛ بالنظر إلى الربط غير الدقيق ما بين المقدمات والنتائج، ولكون وصم السلطة بالنيوليبرالية يتناقض مع دورها الوظيفي وطبيعة الشروط التي تعمل في سياقها.

BLUE CRAB SHELL WASTE VALORIZATION AS A SOURCE OF HYDROXYAPATITE FOR BIOCOMPATIBLE DENTAL IMPLANT COATING FABRICATION
Authors: Ningrum Eva Oktavia , Azhar Imam Safari , Tiwikrama Ardila Hayu
Published: May 2024

In the presented work, the effect of hydroxyapatite/polycaprolactone (HAp/PCL) ratio and the immersion/withdrawal speed on the corrosion rate and antibacterial properties of Ti-6Al-4V ELI dental implant coating was investigated. Ti6Al-4V ELI implants are coated with different HAp-PCL ratios and immersion speeds. The functional groups of product hydroxyapatite were confirmed using the HAp standard JCPDS no. 09-0432, with crystallinity of 88.32% and ratio Ca/P at 2.12. The result shows that the higher concentrations of hydroxyapatite result in the decrease of corrosion rate and increased antibacterial activity reflected in larger inhibition zones. Additionally, the higher immersion and withdrawal speeds during dip-coating lead to lower corrosion rates. Furthermore, decreased corrosion rates may enhance the antibacterial properties of HAp-PCL coatings. These results demonstrate that the HAp/PCL composite can be considered as a prospective candidate for dental implant Ti-6Al-4V ELI coating.

EFFICIENT BIOCOAGULANT Azardicta Indica BARK POWDER FOR ARSENIC (III) REMOVAL IN THE SOLUTION PHASE
Authors: A.Vijayarani  , Sailaja B. B. V. , D. Sirisha
Published: May 2024

This study aims to remove arsenic from groundwater by employing a series of batch studies on Azardicta Indica bark powder that vary in terms of physic-chemical factors such as contact time, dose, pH, initial arsenic content, and temperature. The rate of arsenic absorption decreased as it moved farther inside the biosorbent particles from its initial quick pace. At a pH of 4.0-6.0 and a dosage of 1.5 gm, the impact of contact duration on arsenic biosorption was investigated for 30 minutes.As the initial arsenic concentration rises, the proportion of arsenic biosorption decreases because mass transfer between the solute and solution interface is impeded at higher concentrations. Through the assessment of the biosorbent's mass transfer coefficients, the experimental outcomes were accurately documented in terms of Freundlich and to some degree Temkin isotherms with values of R2 0.998 and 0.956, respectively.

Published: May 2024

In an era where environmental stewardship is paramount, the rampant release of azo dyes into our ecosystems by textile and related industries presents a pressing concern. Among these dyes, Methyl Orange (MO), a textile industry staple, emerges as a significant component of industrial waste, pervading various water sources and precipitating pollution. The imperative for its decomposition, particularly in the context of potable water, cannot be overstated. The pernicious cocktail of dye residues, bacterial contaminants, and antibiotic remnants has engendered a perilous milieu for both fauna and humanity alike, underscoring the urgent need for versatile agents capable of mitigating diverse pollutants. Enter nanotechnology, a transformative force empowering the genesis of precise and efficacious methodologies for wastewater treatment, irrespective of scale. In this pioneering endeavour, our aim is twofold: first, to synthesize iron (Fe) nanoparticles utilizing the stem aqueous extract of Cissus quadrangularis, and second, to meticulously characterize these biosynthesized Fe nanoparticles through a suite of analytical techniques including UV spectroscopy, XRD, FTIR, Zeta potential with DLS and SEM-EDAX examination. Moreover, we embark on a quest to unravel the potential of these biologically derived Fe particles in catalysing the photo-degradation of methyl orange under the aegis of UV radiation, coupled with an assessment of methyl orange biodegradation via UV-Vis spectroscopy analysis. Central to our methodology is the employment of an experimental design paradigm, underpinned by the venerable Response Surface Methodology (RSM), to forge a blueprint for optimizing the operational variables germane to the photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange utilizing Fe nanoparticles. Through this concerted effort, we aspire not merely to mitigate the deleterious impact of industrial effluents, but to usher forth a new epoch of sustainable and efficacious wastewater treatment methodologies.

Authors: Pandey Aayushi
Published: May 2024

This study presents a green synthetic approach for 2-Amino-7-hydroxy-4-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran-3-carbonitriles with DABCO (1,4-diazabicyclo [2.2.2] octane) reagent in water. The reaction involves the condensation of malononitrile, benzaldehyde, and resorcinol, facilitated by an organic molecule as a catalyst. Mechanistically, the synthesis elucidates the role of DABCO in Knoevenagel condensation followed by intramolecular cyclization for higher yields in greener conditions. Subsequent O-alkylation with active pharmacophore chloroethyl -pyrrolidine, - piperidine, and -morpholine, and their further reaction with thiourea, yielded substituted 4H-Chromeno[2,3-d] pyrimidin-2-thione compounds (6a-c) of biological importance. The characterization of synthesized molecules was done using IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and Mass spectra analysis. A computational analysis evaluating the drug-likeliness scores of the compounds and biological evaluations were done, indicating their therapeutic potential for antimicrobial activity. DABCO's role as a nucleophilic catalyst and strong base in water renders it an optimal choice for this synthesis. The reaction's short duration, high yield, and easy work-up emphasize its eco-friendly and sustainable nature. This research highlights the efficacy of utilizing DABCO in a green synthetic protocol to produce biologically relevant compounds, demonstrating promising therapeutic properties.

Published: May 2024

SARS-CoV-2 is the causative agent of the disease known as COVID-19. COVID-19 is spreading very fast around the world. One of the immune responses that play a role in against SARS-CoV-2 infection is the production of antibodies, which is 3 weeks after infection. Where within 3 weeks after infection, antibodies will be produced against RBD and the S1 and S2 domains in glycoprotein S and nucleocapsid protein N. The ability of an antibody to inhibit viral infection is determined by its level or titer. This study aims to determine the description of antibody levels against SARS-CoV-2 after vaccination. This type of research is descriptive research. Measurement of antibody levels for SRBD SARS-CoV-2 was carried out using the CLIA method using the MAGLUMI tool. Of the 30 respondents, 23 people had received the third vaccine. The results of this study showed that the average level of SRBD antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in respondents with 2 doses of vaccine (1.063,786 BAU/mL) was higher than in respondents with 3 doses of vaccine (535.651 BAU/mL). Vaccine intervals of more than 6 months (908.338 BAU/mL) have higher antibody levels than respondents with vaccine intervals of 1-6 months (228.006 BAU/mL). The conclusion of this study is the highest antibody titers are produced >6 months after vaccination, antibody titers are still detectable after 12 months of vaccination, and for further research, it can be measured antibody levels against SARS-CoV-2 from people who have got vaccination for a duration of 2 years or more.

Authors: Djuma Agustina W. , Dewu Sherly , Banunu Ayorince Herlinalt Gloria , Kambuno Norma T. , Astuti Aldiana
Published: May 2024

The management of chronic hepatitis B involves various therapeutic approaches, including nucleotide analogs (NUCs) and pegylated-interferon alpha (peg-IFN), either in isolation or in combination. Reverse transcriptase enzyme is competitively inhibited by NUCs, which effectively suppresses HBV replication and lowers viral load. Concerning their cost-effectiveness, high response rates, low side effects, and oral administration, NUCs are recommended. Prolonged use, particularly of NUCs with a low genetic barrier or as monotherapy, can, however, lead to resistance, long-term safety issues, and the need for ongoing treatment. Physicians and other healthcare professionals are extremely concerned about the emergence of resistance and possible safety concerns related to the long-term use of NUCs. Moreover, the requirement for continuous therapy presents notable obstacles concerning patient adherence, distribution of healthcare resources, and overall economic viability. To clarify these problems and direct the creation of more potent and long-lasting treatment plans for chronic hepatitis B, urgent research is required. Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) detection is frequently accomplished via the use of the Chemiluminescent Microparticle Immunoassay (CMIA), which is a crucial early serologic marker for screening and diagnosis. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) molecular testing is employed to confirm the presence of HBsAg. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) was the technique we utilized to verify the outcomes. Twenty-eight of the HBsAg-positive patients at W.Z. Johannes Kupang Hospital had positive PCR results, highlighting the significance of molecular confirmation. The results of this study emphasize the value of precise HBsAg testing and the supplementary function of molecular confirmation in the treatment of patients with chronic hepatitis B. Furthermore, it clarifies the current therapeutic approaches applied to this patient population, highlighting the necessity of customized therapeutic approaches based on each patient's unique profile and potential complications.

Since a long time ago, banana flowers have been believed they increase the production of breast milk. Thus, many people consume them as vegetables for breastfeeding mothers. This research aims to examine the impact of oxytocin massage and banana flower consumption on prolactin levels in breastfeeding mothers. The method used a true experiment control group design in which samples were divided into 3 groups; group 1 was treated with oxytocin massage, group 2 was treated with banana flower consumption, and group 3 was given intervention with oxytocin massage and banana flower consumption. The massage was conducted every day with durations of 5-10 minutes. The banana flower vegetable was served as much as 150 grams daily. The first blood sampling was done pre-intervention on the third day of postpartum. The second blood sampling was done after intervention on the tenth day of postpartum. The checkup of prolactin level was through a method of Chemiluminescent Microparticle Immunoassay (CMIA). To analyze the data, this research utilized a T-test exam. The result is the average difference in prolactin levels in pre-and-post intervention in group 1 was -61,75 ng/mL. Although decreasing prolactin levels occurred, yet there was no significant interval between pretest and posttest.  The difference in prolactin levels in pre-and-post intervention in group 2 was 103,61 ng/mL. The prolactin level increased but not significantly. In group 3, the difference levels were about 110,22 ng/mL. In this group, a significant prolactin level increase had occurred. The conclusion is the combination treatment of banana flower and oxytocin massage evolved the level of prolactin level in nursing mothers. Research related to strengthening the recommendation of traditional galactagogues consumption to breastfeeding mothers.

Horticultural farmers use chemicals such as pesticides to increase productivity and also product quality. Exposure to pesticides can cause health problems, especially in the liver. A reference for evaluating liver function is blood test results for ALT, AST, ALP, and GGT activity. The objective of this study was to characterize the transaminase enzyme activity in horticultural farmers in the southern ring road area of Jambi city, based on the risk factors associated with pesticide exposure. This study employed a cross-sectional study approach in conjunction with a descriptive method. A total of thirty-four participants were involved, and blood samples were obtained from each for analysis in a lab. A photometer was utilized in the Medical Laboratory Technology department at Health Polytechnic of Jambi to measure the activity of liver enzymes. This study found some respondents who experienced increased enzyme activity, namely ALT: 8 people (23.5%), AST: 3 people (8.8%), ALP: 1 person (2.9%), and GGT: 1 person (2.9%.). Based on the risk description observed, it was known that the intensity of pesticide exposure showed a significant increase only in ALT enzyme activity (p=0.0048), while adherence to mask-wearing increased ALT (p=0.0018) and GGT (p=0.0134). This study discovered that wearing a mask and the amount of pesticide exposure can increase enzyme activity, which may be a sign of liver impairment in the horticultural farmers under observation. It is anticipated that workers will pay greater attention to workplace safety by wearing masks and applying pesticides in the recommended dosages.

Exposure to vehicle emissions, particularly carbon monoxide (CO), during pregnancy has been identified as a potential factor contributing to low birth weight in infants. The mechanism of CO's impact on the body involves its binding with hemoglobin (Hb) in red blood cells, leading to placental dysfunction and alterations in oxygen flow efficiency to the uteroplacental. Such disruptions can adversely affect fetal growth. This study focuses on Makassar City, a rapidly developing urban area experiencing substantial growth in infrastructure and transportation. This research aims to assess the impact of carbon monoxide exposure on birth weight in pregnant women residing in Makassar City. The method of this study is a quantitative approach employing a descriptive cross-sectional design was adopted for this study. The research sample consisted of 120 pregnant women categorized based on their CO exposure levels—30 with low exposure, 60 with moderate exposure, and 30 with high exposure. Simple random sampling was utilized for participant selection. CO levels were measured using the Adalog 7000 multi-gas monitor. Data analysis included One Sample ANOVA and Linear Regression. The results show that data analysis indicated that pregnant women with low CO exposure had an average birth weight of 3110.83 grams. In contrast, those with moderate and high CO exposure exhibited average birth weights of 2840.33 grams and 2667.33 grams, respectively. The regression coefficient for CO exposure was -221,750, indicating that a 1 µm increase in carbon monoxide gas correlated with a decrease in birth weight by -221,750. The conclusion is pregnant women who are exposed to high and moderate carbon monoxide gas during pregnancy had an effect on birth weight than mothers who are exposed to low carbon monoxide gas. Future research is needed to measure CO levels in the blood of pregnant women in relation to birth weight.
