A Review on Liposomes : A Promising Technique for Drug Delivery System
Authors: Akanksha S. Atole  , Vijaya U. Barge
Published: January 2024

This Liposomes are microscopic (unilamellar or multilamellar) vesicles. Liposomes have been considered promising and versatile drug vesicles. Compared with traditional drug delivery systems, liposomes exhibit better properties, including site-targeting, sustained or controlled release, protection of drugs from degradation and clearance, superior therapeutic effects, and lower toxic side effects. Given these merits, several liposomal drug products have been successfully approved and used in clinics over the last couple of decades. Currently, a number of liposomal formulations are on the marker for cancer treatment and many more are in pipe line. This review discusses about the liposome components, methods of preparation, drug encapsulation mechanism and the potential therapeutic applications of liposomes in cancer therapy. The term liposome means lipid body. It has been derived on the basis of name of subcellular particles, ribosome. Liposomes were first made by A.D Bangham in early 1960s. Their size ranges from 25 to 500 nm. This paper summarizes exclusively scalable techniques and focuses on limitations in respect to industrial applicability and regulatory requirements concerning liposomal drug formulations based on FDA and EMEA documents.

Published: January 2024

This study aims to develop three sizes of breast phantoms from silicone rubber (SR) material and evaluate tube current modulation (TCM) to reduce surface doses of the developed breast phantoms. The in-house breast phantom has three sizes: small (cup 34), medium (cup 36), and large (cup 38). The cross-sectional areas of cup 34, 36, and 38 are 78.5, 113.04, and 153.87 cm2, respectively. The in-house phantom was attached to the adult anthropomorphic phantom for dose measurement. Dose measurement was performed using an Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) dosimeter. Scans were performed with and without TCM technique. It was found that the TCM effectively reduce the radiation dose to the breast surface up to approximately 60%. However, the dose reduction was accompanied by a 66% increase in noise when using the TCM technique.
Detection of lanes, obstacles and drivable areas for self-driving cars using multifusion perception metrics
Authors: Kishore Kumar A. , Palanisamy Venkatesh
Published: January 2024

Autonomous vehicles have been a recent trend and active research area from the onset of machine learning and deep learning algorithms. Computer vision and deep learning techniques have simplified the operations of continuous monitoring and decision-making capabilities of autonomous vehicles. A navigation system is facilitated by a visual system, where sensors and collectors process input in form of images or videos, and the navigation system will be making certain decisions to adhere to the safety of drivers and passers-by. This research article contemplates the model of obstacle detection, lane detection, and how the vehicle is supposed to act in terms of autonomous driving situation. This situation should resemble human driving conditions and should ensure maximum safety to both the stakeholders. A unified neural network for detecting lanes, objects, obstacles and to advise the driving speed is defined in this architecture. As far as autonomous driving is considered, these target elements are considered to be the predominant areas of focus for autonomous driving vehicles. Since capturing the images or videos have to be performed in real-time scenarios and processing them for relevant decision making have to be completed at a swift pace, a concept of context tensors is introduced in the decoders for discriminating the tasks based on priority. Every task is associated with the other tasks and also the decision-making process and hence this architecture will continue to learn every day. From the obtained results, it is evident that multitask networks can be improved using the proposed method in terms of accuracy, decision-making capability and reduced computational time. This model investigates the performance using Berkeley deep drive datasets which are considered to be a challenging dataset.

KONUŞUL(A)MAYANI ANLATMAK: TRAVMA TEORİSİ VE EDEBİYAT
Authors: Aygan Tuğba
Published: January 2024

İçinde bulunduğumuz ve bir önceki yüzyıl deneyimlerini en iyi tanımlayan terimlerden biri kuşkusuz travmadır. Yirminci yüzyıl modern savaş anlayışının yarattığı yıkımlara koşut olarak insan psikolojisindeki hasarlarla gündeme gelen travma terimi, 1980 yılında Amerikan Psikiyatri Derneği tarafından resmi olarak tanınır. Ardından doksanlı yıllarda Cathy Caruth, Shoshana Felman ve Dominick LaCapra gibi teorisyenlerin çalışmalarıyla travma olgusu edebiyat, psikoloji ve tarih alanlarında yeni bir odak noktası haline gelir. Freud’dan Caruth’a travmanın doğrudan deneyimlenemez, dolayısıyla anlatılamaz olduğu savı, diğer yandan iyileşme için ihtiyaç duyduğu anlatılma zorunluluğu, ilk kuşak travma teorisinin merkezindeki gerilimi belirler. Ancak yirmibirinci yüzyıl başlarından itibaren Ruth Leys, Steff Craps, Michelle Balaev gibi çağdaş teorisyenler Caruth ve diğerlerinin travma tanımlamasına eleştiriler getirirler. İçinde barındırdığı çeşitlilik ve farklılıklardan dolayı çoğulcu model olarak bilinen çağdaş travma teorileri travmanın konuşulamaz olduğu savını reddederken geleneksel travma teorisinin Batı merkezci olduğunu savunur. Bu nedenle daha kapsayıcı ve çok kültürlü travma modelleri sunarlar. Gerçek hayatta konuşulamayanı dile getirme, hayal edilemeyeni hayal etme gibi sınırlara meydan okuma gücüyle edebiyat, travma teorilerinin de en uğrak noktası olur. Hem Caruth’un öncülüğündeki geleneksel travma teorisi hem de çoğulcu model sıkça edebiyata başvurur. Söz konusu etkileşimden hareketle bu çalışmanın amacı, travmanın geçmişten günümüze uzanan tarihsel seyrini kısa bir tartışmanın ardından, geleneksel ve çağdaş travma teorileri ışığında travma ve edebiyat ilişkisini ele almaktır.

Authors: Sezer Uğur , Sannav Sabri Can
Published: January 2024

II. Meşrutiyet’in 23-24 Temmuz 1908 tarihinde ilan edilmesinin ardından örgütlenme ve cemiyetleşme gibi konularda kayda değer değişimler yaşanmıştı. İstanbul, Selanik, Manastır, Görice, Elbasan, İşkodra gibi yerlerde açılan Arnavut kulüplerinin bünyelerinde Arnavutça gazete ve mecmuaların yer alması ise Arnavut dilinin gelişimi adına önemli bir adım olmuştu. Bununla beraber Arnavut dili ile ilgili bir ikilem ortaya çıkmıştı. Bu ikilem Arnavut dilinin Latin harfleri ile mi yoksa Arap harfleri ile mi yazılacağı konusunu gündeme getirmişti. Bu süreçte, konu üzerinde İstanbul’daki Arnavut entelektüelleri arasında çeşitli tartışmalar yaşanmıştı. Arnavutlar tarafından yayınlanan gazeteler harfler meselesinde bir tartışma sahası olarak görülmüştü. Bu gazeteler Arnavut dilinin gelişme aşamalarından önemli bir süreci temsil etmektedir. Gazetelerin bir kısmı Osmanlı Türkçesi olarak bir kısmı ise Latin harfli ya da Arap harfli Arnavut dili esas alınarak kaleme alınmıştı. Bu gazetelerin en önemlilerinden birisi ise İstanbul Beyoğlu’nda “Arnavud/Shqipetari” ismiyle Derviş Hima (İbrahim Mehmet Naci) tarafından çıkarılmıştı. Yayın hayatına 13 Ocak 1910 tarihinde başlayan gazetenin 74. ve son sayısı 25 Ekim 1912 tarihinde yayınlanmıştı. Haftalık olarak neşredilen gazete üç yıla yakın bir süre yayınlanmış ve Arnavutlar hakkında önemli konuları gündeme getirmişti. Ele alınan çalışmada, II. meşrutiyet dönemi İstanbul basınından Arnavud/Shqipetari gazetesi incelenerek Arnavut dili, kültürü ve tarihi ile ilgili bazı önemli yazılar aktarılmıştır.
N. M. KARAMZİN’İN “BORNHOLM ADASI” VE “SİERRA MORENA” ADLI ÖYKÜLERİNDE GOTİK UNSURLAR
Authors: Yıldırım Nejla
Published: January 2024

Hemen hemen tüm sanat dallarında görülen gotik, ilk kez 12. yüzyılın ortalarında Avrupa mimarisinde bir tarzı tanımlamak için kullanılmış ve bu tarz 16. yüzyılın ortalarına kadar varlığını devam ettirmiştir. Mimariden resme ve heykele geçen gotik, daha sonra edebiyata da esin kaynağı olmuştur. İlk kez 18. yüzyılın ikinci yarısında Avrupa’da ortaya çıkan gotik edebiyat, varlığını günümüze kadar devam ettirmeyi başarmıştır. Gotik edebiyatın ilk örneğini ise İngiliz yazar Horace Walpole (1717-1797) “Otranto Şatosu” (The Castle of Otranto, 1764) adlı eseriyle vermiştir. Rus edebiyatında da bu türün ilk örneklerine Nikolay Mihayloviç Karamzin’in (1766-1826) eserlerinde rastlanmıştır. Rus edebiyatında Sentimentalizm akımının öncüsü olarak kabul edilen Karamzin, duygusal öykülerinin yanı sıra “Bornholm Adası” (Ostrov Borngolm, 1793) ve “Sierra Morena” (Sierra Morena, 1793) gibi gotik tarzda öyküler de kaleme almıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı da Karamzin’in “Bornholm Adası” ve “Sierra Morena” adlı öykülerini gotik unsurlar çerçevesinde ele almak, bu öykülerin Rus edebiyatındaki yeri ve önemi üzerinde durmak ve ülkemizde daha çok duygusal öyküleri ve tarihçi kimliğiyle bilinen yazarın gotik yönünü tanıtmaktır. Söz konusu öykülerin incelenmesinde ise metne dayalı inceleme yöntemi kullanılmıştır.
DESTRUCTION OF FEMALE BODY BY FEMININITY: AN ANALYSIS ON DE BEAUVOIR, FOUCAULT, BORDO AND ATWOOD
Authors: Degirmencioglu Nesrin
Published: January 2024

In The Second Sex, Simone de Beauvoir problematizes the woman’s position in the society by relying on sociological observations. In her famous statement, “one is not born, but rather becomes a woman” (1997: 295), she argues the issue of gender as a social construct and questions the social power relations as a result of which women are turned into feminine creatures subordinate to men. On the contrary, in The History of Sexuality, Foucault conceptualizes sexuality and connects it to his theory of power by challenging the long-established traditions and beliefs on sexuality. Simone de Beauvoir’s sociological analysis is extremely divergent from Foucault’s conceptualizing methodology. Foucault accepts the existence of male and female realms and does not problematize the creation process of gender distinctions as de Beauvoir does. Furthermore, as a self-declared Foucauldian, Susan Bordo questions the woman’s position within the society in terms of Foucault’s theory of power, nonetheless, relies on a similar sociological analysis applied by de Beauvoir. Therefore, in this journal article, de Beauvoir’s existentialist point of view in The Second Sex is contrasted to Michel Foucault’s structuralist theory of power in The History of Sexuality and Susan Bordo’s ideas are used as an intermediary between the two. Their deficiencies and contributions to the feminist literary studies are examined and their manifestations in literary representation is analysed though Margaret Atwood’s The Edible Woman.

Authors: Masum Abdullah Al , Sarker Zilan Miah , Ahmed Toufiq , Khatun Nasima , Islam Mohammad Tanvir
Published: January 2024

Background: Enteric fever which is a very common bacterial infection in the Bangladeshi population is most commonly acquired by ingestion of water and food contaminated with feces or urine of carriers. Drug resistance in typhoid fever is considered one of the important factors in the morbidity and mortality of the disease. The emergence of strains of Salmonella Typhi resistant to multiple antibiotics poses a serious problem. The increasing frequency of antibiotic resistance has been reported from all parts of the world, but more so from developing countries. Thus this study aim to assess the antimicrobial sensitivity pattern of commonly used antibiotics among adult enteric fever patients.

Methods: This cross-sectional comparative study was conducted in the Department of Medicine of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, Bangladesh from January 2015 to December 2015. In total 150 individuals were included in this study as the study subjects who were divided into two groups. In Group A, a total of 50 confirmed enteric fever cases and in Group B, a total of 100 non-enteric febrile adult patients were included. A non-probability purposive sampling technique was used in sample collection. All data were processed, analyzed and disseminated by using the MS Office program. For this analysis to fulfill the objective of this study, mainly data from 50 confirmed enteric fever cases were considered.

Results: In this study, among the total of our 50 enteric fever cases with isolated salmonellae organisms including S. typhi and S. Paratyphi, during the treatment procedure, as the antibiotics cefepime, cefixime, ceftazidime, ciprofloxacin, imipenem, meropenem and ofloxacin showed 100% sensitivities. Besides ceftriaxone, cotrimoxazole, chloramphenicol and azithromycin showed 98%, 68%, 66% and 54% sensitivities respectively (>50%). On the other hand, more than 50% of resistant cases were found in treatment by nalidixic acid (76%), ampicillin (98%) and amoxicillin (98%).

Conclusion: Till today, considering the lower treatment cost and better patient compliance ciprofloxacin may be considered as the drug of choice in treating adult enteric fever patients. Besides cefepime, cefixime, ceftazidime, ciprofloxacin, imipenem, meropenem or ofloxacin can be used in such cases confidently.

Role of Astrophorina sponges (Demospongiae) in food-web interactions at the Flemish Cap (NW Atlantic)
Authors: Stratmann T , Murillo FJ , Sacau M , Alonso MK , Kenchington E
Published: January 2024

Deep-sea sponges are important contributors to carbon and nitrogen cycling due to their large filtration capacity. Species of the suborder Astrophorina form dense sponge grounds in the North Atlantic, where they serve as prey for spongivores, but also have non-trophic interactions with commensal epi- and endobionts. At the Flemish Cap (NW Atlantic), Astrophorina sponges are present in 4 previously described deep-sea epifaunal assemblages: the deep-sea coral assemblage, lower slope assemblages 1 and 2, and the deep-sea sponge assemblage. To investigate their role in trophic and non-trophic interactions at the Flemish Cap, we developed trophic and non-trophic interaction web models for each of the 4 faunal assemblages using the published literature. By excluding the sponges from the models, we estimated how many trophic, and facultative and obligatory non-trophic, interactions would be lost, and how this removal affected food-web properties (number of compartments, links, link density, and connectance). Astrophorina sponges were mostly linked via facultative non-trophic interactions to 59, 58, 84, and 90 compartments in the deep-sea coral, the lower slope 1 and 2, and the deep-sea sponge assemblages, respectively. Direct trophic interactions only existed with Syllidae, Echinasteridae, and Pterasteridae. Astrophorina sponges were considered highest impact taxa in all faunal assemblages and, together with sea pens, they were identified as structural species/habitat formers and foundation species in the deep-sea coral and deep-sea sponge habitat. Hence, even less abundant, or non-representative (indicator), species can be important for food-web integrity via trophic and non-trophic interactions.

Authors: Sania I Luh Devi , Arianto  , Farid Muhammad
Published: January 2024

Online gender-based violence (GBV) is a form of violence that has the intention or meaning of harassing victims based on gender or sexual activity online or the use of internet technology. The objective study is to analyze reasons why victims of Online gender-based violence (GBV) choose to do self-disclosure on Twitter compared to other social media or directly disclose themselves. Result of the study shows that encouragement for online GBV victims to disclose themselves on social media Twitter is more comfortable with features such as Twitter's anonymity and speed, which make some topics popular. Social media such as Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, drip emphasize visual and audio-visual content that makes victims uncomfortable enough to self-disclose with content like That. The second is what the victims revealed about themselves as a form of concern against others on Twitter who can become online GBV victims. Third, online GBV victims need a place and encouragement from other victims who have revealed themselves on social media, so disclosure on Twitter can motivate other victims to reveal themselves bravely.

OVERCONFIDENCE, REPRESENTATIVENESS AND HERDING BIAS AMONG GERMAN INVESTORS: HOW DEMOGRAPHIC AND OTHER VARIABLES INFLUENCE THEIR DECISION
Authors: WAWROSZ PETR , SCHULZ BASTIAN
Published: January 2024

The study assesses based on the responses from the survey of 342 persons how behavioural biases affect German investors' investment decisions. Three behavioural biases were examined: overconfidence, representativeness, and herding behavior. It was determined that demographic factors affecting German investors, such as gender, age, experience, education, and frequency of investment, influence this choice. Male German investors are more susceptible to all three biases than females. Young investors (<35 years) are more at risk for the overconfidence bias and the representativeness bias, while older investors (>35 years) are more at risk for the herding bias. Investors with a lower experience (<5 years) on the stock market have a higher tendency for the three biases than German investors with a higher experience (> five years). Investors with a high (i.e. university) education are more susceptible to the three biases than those with a low education. Investors with a high investing frequency (> three months) scored higher for all three biases than investors with a low investing frequency (<3 months).

This article aims to analyze, through a questionnaire, future teachers’ knowledge and opinions regarding first aid, and to assess the inclusion of a mandatory first-aid course, the content of which was influenced by statistical data of the South Bohemian Emergency Medical Service and teachers’ statistics (Hrušková et al., 2022). Students of the Faculty of Education (N=227) from South Bohemia (municipalities with different populations and, with regard to the gender ratio in students, mostly women) filled out questionnaires before and after a first-aid course in 2023. Through the questionnaire survey (a) significant differences were found in the mean values of knowledge of first aid in sum between all subgroups of students (p≤0.05), (b) in the level of knowledge of first aid for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), traumas, and acute conditions of chronic diseases (p≤0.05), and (c) in the level of knowledge of each first-aid item individually (p≤0.05). In general, completing our first-aid course is essential for all our students (p≤0.05), even for those who have already completed some previous first-aid course.

Published: January 2024

This research aims to analyze online-based academic supervision of school principals. Academic supervision is a form of supervision and further guidance to improve and help develop teacher competence in learning using web or ICT. Academic supervision media is selected and implemented to answer various challenges that arise; geographical location, limited implementation time, number of supervisors, delayed schedules, and utilization of the digital era. This research method uses literature review based on appropriate book sources and previous studies that have been published nationally, especially articles published in the last three years (2021-2023). The results show that online academic supervision has a positive effect in answering existing problems, facilitating the implementation of supervision, helping to increase teacher competency regarding technological advances, and a flexible coaching model on teacher competency. Another dimension of online academic supervision allows direct relationships or contact between supervisors and teachers to be lost, internet network access that is less than optimal makes supervision hampered, and problems for supervisors and teachers in implementing supervision

A Study of Bill Evans’ Use of Appoggiatura and Polychords in the Solo Piano Composition “We Will Meet Again”
Authors:   The Korean Society of Culture and Convergence, Park Jieun , Jeon Yoonhan
Published: January 2024

This study analyzes the most prominent manifestations of harmonic expansion and tension in Bill Evans’ harmonic techniques, focusing on appoggiatura and polychords. These two techniques represent Evans’ characteristic harmonic progressions that dramatically induce and resolve tension. While Evans employs numerous other idiosyncratic harmonic techniques, these two serve as cornerstones of all Jazz harmonic development, rooted in his assimilation of classical music into Jazz piano. Appoggiatura elucidates Evans’ method of inducing harmonic tension and resolution through the polyphonic use of non-harmonic tones. Polychord is dissected into two categories: one comprising diatonic scales and the other involving altered scales. The study explores how Evans employed diverse Polychords based on harmonic tension and the flow of the musical piece. Through the analysis of Bill Evans’ solo piano composition “We Will Meet Again”, this research examines how harmonic expansion unfolds in compositional music and elucidates how Evans employed these techniques in his performances to actualize and crystallize his unique harmonies.

Authors:   The Korean Society of Culture and Convergence, Kim Yoonjeun
Published: January 2024

This study focuses on the information asymmetry in the art market, examining the problems caused by the asymmetry and exploring the utility of Security Token Offerings(STO) as a means to address and resolve these issues. To do so, the study initially applied the concept of information asymmetry commonly used in economics to the art market to understand the challenges within the market. Subsequently, an investigation was conducted into how information asymmetry operates in the context of art objects and the unique characteristics of the art market. Based on this foundation, the study, going beyond the traditional solutions, examined how STO with blockchain technology and security tokens could address and mitigate information asymmetry. Finally, the study analyzed how information asymmetry could be regulated from a perspective known as screening. In other words, it anticipated that the screening and regulatory nature of capital market law could proactively prevent information asymmetry in the art market, contributing to transparency. In summary, this research acknowledges the issue of information asymmetry in the art market and proposes the use of blockchain technology and security tokens for fractional investments as a solution, exploring new possibilities to enhance transparency and efficiency in the market.
For Advancing Digital Archives in Multifaceted Utilization of Intangible Cultural Heritage
Authors:   The Korean Society of Culture and Convergence, Jeong seongmi
Published: January 2024

This paper aims to explore ways to discover and utilize the value of intangible cultural heritage through integrative research. It is necessary to digitize intangible cultural heritage materials and understand and use their meanings in diverse ways. ICT (Information and Communication Technology) is essential in protecting and utilizing intangible cultural heritage. To uncover the multifaceted meanings and values of intangible cultural heritage, I propose the development of a digital archive platform for intangible cultural heritage. While traditional archivists have served as facilitators in excavating archived records sought by users, a 'digital archive platform' should go beyond this role and contribute to attracting new users by involving affiliated institutions. Active data mining should occur in this process, creating an environment where participants can freely share and actively utilize information. This is, in essence, a new research methodology for 'intangible cultural heritage studies.

There are limitations in solving environmental problems solely through culture and arts. However, it can support efforts to practice ESG management by raising community awareness through the inherent cognitive value of culture, art, and artistic actions and further contributing to respecting diversity and solving community problems. As ESG management has become an unstoppable trend, support and cooperation for culture and arts should be considered for companies to practice ESG management effectively. Therefore, The objective of this study is to identify a sustainable direction for ESG management through the culture and arts. To this end, the study analyzed case studies from both domestic and international corporate cultural foundations and derived actionable directions within the realms of environmental, social, and governance. The study further suggests that a shift from a solely charitable and benevolent standpoint to a mutually beneficial partnership between corporations and the cultural and arts sector is essential. The study underscores the need to secure sustainability through 'corporate citizenship' activities that are connected to the business of the corporations.

Published: January 2024

Based on surveys of students majoring in applied music at a four-year university and consultations with professors engaged in applied music, this study was conducted to understand the demand and necessity of 'web literacy' education in 'applied music major education'. This study examined how much 'web media/platform' such as music streaming platform, YouTube, and SNS actually play a role in music learning and listening to college students majoring in applied music, and also explored the awareness of the web's status as a 'music presentation and distribution' media as a production subject of music content. Additionally, the study investigated how applied music professors understand the necessity and demand of education related to 'web literacy' of students in the educational field. As a result of the study, it was confirmed that both the educational providers and recipients recognize the proactive role of web media throughout the entire process, including music education, listening, presentation, and distribution, that education related to these aspects of web media should be introduced and expanded to keep pace with the evolving landscape. This study reveals that there is a widely shared recognition of the substantial need for the expansion of education and the introduction of curriculum related to 'web literacy'.
A Study on the Use of Ambiguous Expressions in Written Language: Focused on ‘나쁘지 않다’ in Blog
Authors:   The Korean Society of Culture and Convergence, Kim Sanghoon
Published: January 2024

This study does not focus on analyzing the syntactic characteristics of '나쁘지 않다' and its meaning, but whether it is in the category of 'good' in the syntactic meaning or 'bad' in the pragmatic meaning when used in writing. It classified whether it belongs to the category and explored the cause of the use of 'not bad' even though it is possible to convey a clear meaning with direct expression. The reasons for maintaining the use of ambiguous expressions in blogs, which are private spaces where free expression is guaranteed without the use of ambiguous expressions, are divided into four aspects: blog genre characteristics, media characteristics, ethical characteristics, and social and cultural characteristics. I looked for factors outside of language. In particular, publicity in media characteristics affects all the other three aspects, and it shows that these public characteristics of blogs have the greatest influence on maintaining the expression 'not bad'. This indicates that a blog is a private space and has a significant meaning as a public space.
