Excavating Chicago from the Armours to Mies: Notes from the Field
Authors: Graff Rebecca S. , Martino Shannon
Published: September 2024

Chicago's preoccupation with its architectural heritage has created an architourism industry around extant works by famous architects like Daniel H. Burnham, Louis Sullivan, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Mies van der Rohe. The social histories of these buildings can be illuminated through archaeological research such as the 2023 summer field project at the former sites of the Armour Mission and the Armour Flats. Excavation there produced materials related to the processes of urban renewal that made manifest the Mies-designed site plan for the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) campus. Amid building demolition, we recovered evidence of food consumption patterns as well as several children's toys from the turn of the twentieth century. The results presented here are preliminary—full analysis will be shared with our community partners in the Black Metropolis National Heritage Area to see what responses, correctives, or new questions for future research emerge.
Florus and the Heavenly conuersio to the Principate of Augustus
Authors: Renda Chiara
Published: September 2024

Florus, as a recurring strategy in his historical work, uses specific imagery to configure and interpret events and attract his reader's attention, thereby enriching his descriptions of various important moments in Roman history. In his passage narrating the transition to Augustus's Principate, Florus imagery, on the one hand, captures and displays a painful understanding of the loss of freedom on the Republican side, while, on the other hand, framing the necessity that heralded Augustus's coming into power at the moment he did as something necessary for achieving the felicitas temporum of his era.
Ammianus Marcellinus on Imperial Successions as Times of Crisis
Authors: Drijvers Jan Willem
Published: September 2024

Imperial succession was always problematic in the Roman empire and was born with the empire itself. Therefore, succession was a potential threat to the political stability of the empire. This paper discusses a number of situations of imperial succession as described in the Res Gestae by Ammianus Marcellinus, the most important historian of the fourth century. After discussing shortly the rise to power of Julian (361–363), Valentinian (364–375), and Valens (364–378) as instances of potential political (and military) insecurity, the main part discusses the power vacuum as a consequence of the sudden and unexpected death of the emperor Julian in the heartland of Persia. This was a particular moment of crisis. Thanks to the capable crisis management of the military and civic officials within a few hours a successor was nominated by the consistorium and subsequently acclaimed by the army. Although initially not considered for Julian's succession, the dynamics of the crisis made Jovian the unanticipated ruler over the Roman empire. He managed to deal with a critical and almost hopeless situation. He quickly concluded a settlement with Shapur without surrendering that not only brought the army safely back to Roman territory but also established relatively peaceful relations between Rome and Persia for many years to come. In that sense the crisis of 363 became a turning point.

Published: September 2024

Decompressive craniectomy is a life-saving procedure used to manage severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). While it effectively reduces mortality, the procedure is associated with multiple postoperative complications, which may impact patient recovery and outcomes. Understanding the frequency and nature of these complications is critical for improving patient care. Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the frequency of postoperative complications in patients who underwent decompressive craniectomy for traumatic brain injury at a tertiary care hospital in Karachi. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at SMBB Trauma Centre, Civil Hospital Karachi, from February 20, 2020, to August 20, 2020. A total of 98 patients who underwent decompressive craniectomy for TBI were included. Data were collected on demographic variables, clinical parameters, and postoperative complications. The mean age, length of hospital stay, duration of injury, and surgery duration were analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed using descriptive statistics. Results: The mean age of the patients was 45.14 ± 9.49 years, with a mean hospital stay of 10.72 ± 6.24 days, mean duration of injury of 8.41 ± 4.69 hours, and mean surgery duration of 4.87 ± 2.14 hours. Of the 98 patients, 60 (61.2%) were male and 38 (38.8%) were female. The most common postoperative complication was subdural effusion, affecting 37 patients (37.76%), followed by contusion expansion in 19 patients (19.39%), external cerebral herniation in 16 patients (16.33%), syndrome of the trephined in 12 patients (12.24%), epilepsy in 7 patients (7.14%), and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage in 4 patients (4.08%). Conclusion: Decompressive craniectomy is an established treatment for reducing mortality in patients with traumatic brain injury. However, the procedure is associated with significant postoperative complications, such as subdural effusion and contusion expansion, which require timely identification and management. Despite its benefits, the risks associated with decompressive craniectomy necessitate careful postoperative monitoring to improve patient outcomes.

Published: September 2024

This systematic review aims to get the awareness and implementation of Building Information Modeling (BIM) among companies and individuals in the construction industry. The objective of that is to assess the current understanding of BIM, identify challenges in its adoption, and propose strategies to enhance its integration for improved project outcomes. The review employed bibliometric and content analysis methods. A comprehensive search of academic databases such as Google Scholar, Scopus, and Web of Science was conducted using keywords like BIM awareness, BIM adoption, and Building Information Modeling training. Then selection criteria were established to include studies focused on BIM awareness and implementation, published between 2010 and 2023. Data extraction and synthesis were performed to analyze trends, challenges, and best practices in BIM adoption. The analysis revealed that while BIM offers significant benefits in improving communication, reducing errors, and enhancing resource efficiency, there is a notable lack of understanding and clear guidelines among stakeholders. Key challenges identified include high implementation costs, resistance to change, and insufficient training resources. However, successful case studies demonstrated that strategic training programs and robust support frameworks significantly enhance BIM adoption and utilization. The review concludes that increasing awareness and providing comprehensive training on BIM are crucial for its successful adoption in the construction industry. Therefore, developing clear implementation strategies and fostering a culture of continuous improvement can mitigate the identified challenges. The findings highlight the need for further research to develop tailored solutions that address the specific needs of different stakeholders, ultimately leading to more effective and widespread use of BIM in construction projects
A Trincheira dos Porcos na Guerra de Mundos: Ecologia Política da Suinocultura nos EUA, México, Brasil e Argentina
Authors: Silva Allan Rodrigo de Campos
Published: September 2024

A globalização da suinocultura industrial, impulsionada pela modernização, tem gerado diversos conflitos socioambientais na América Latina, opondo cosmopolíticas e cosmotécnicas locais ao sistema produtor de mercadorias. Este artigo analisa a ecologia política das paisagens e lutas na suinocultura nos EUA, México, Brasil e Argentina. Nos EUA, a suinocultura industrial explora desproporcionalmente populações negras, submetendo-as à contaminação nas bordas das CAFOs, enquanto universaliza sua prática na América Latina. Os efeitos da consolidação da produção suinícola sobre o México nos anos 1990, o Brasil nos anos 2000 e a Argentina nos anos 2020 territorializaram disputas inerentes à integração produtiva, que subjuga ecologias e camponeses às corporações, externalizaram riscos sanitários oriundos da produção de gigantes como a China, etc. Estes lugares compõem um front em uma guerra de mundos (Krenak, 2017), cuja conflitualidade pode ser compreendida a partir das disputas socioecológicas do colapso da modernização e da natureza em torno da trincheira dos porcos, exigindo uma rede crítica e de resistência multiespécies para fortalecer as lutas territoriais.

Major types of diets in the management of metabolic syndrome and obesity: a systematic review
Authors: Siqueira Júnior Pedro Luiz Ferreira de , Leão Luciana Corrêa dos Santos
Published: September 2024

Introduction: Excessive weight gain generates comorbidities, many of which are characterized as metabolic syndrome (MS), in which the individual, to be diagnosed, must present three or more metabolic or anthropometric changes such as increased waist circumference, systemic arterial hypertension, hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and reduced serum HDL levels. It is important to highlight the association of MS with cardiovascular diseases, increasing global mortality by approximately 1.5 times and cardiovascular mortality by approximately 2.5 times. In this sense, of the different types of diets such as the low-carb diet, very low-carb diet, and intermittent fasting diet, the traditional Brazilian diet, the DASH, and the Mediterranean diet stand out, as they present as the main therapeutic proposal in the treatment of MS. Objective: It was to carry out a systematic review to present the main types of diets in the management of metabolic syndrome, evaluating their effectiveness as a nutritional benefit in controlling health and quality of life. Methods: The PRISMA Platform systematic review rules were followed. The search was carried out from April to June 2024 in the Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, Scielo, and Google Scholar databases. The quality of the studies was based on the GRADE and AMSTAR-2 instrument and the risk of bias was analyzed appropriately. according to the Cochrane instrument. Results and Conclusion: 111 articles were found, and 30 were evaluated in full and included in this article, 21 of which were included in the systematic review. Considering the Cochrane tool for risk of bias, the global assessment resulted in 12 studies with a high risk of bias and 21 studies that did not reach GRADE and AMSTAR-2. Most studies showed homogeneity in their results, with X2=79.8%>50%. It was concluded that the traditional Brazilian diet, DASH, and the Mediterranean diet have in common the characteristics of plant-based diet varieties that incorporate natural foods and reduce ultra-processed foods. These diets have shown good results for human health through the prevention and treatment of obesity in its different life cycles, and there is also evidence of a reduction in the risk of cardiovascular diseases and cancer in individuals with obesity. Furthermore, these diets promote a decrease in low-grade inflammation that affects individuals with obesity, having beneficial effects in reducing metabolic syndrome, even more so when added to physical activities. It has been shown that dietary factors can play a fundamental role both in the individual components and in the prevention and control of metabolic syndrome. Recent data associate the presence of metabolic syndrome with lower consumption of whole grains, fruits, and vegetables.

Authors: Bueno Mabel Simm Milan , Bannwart Janaína Patrícia Freire
Published: September 2024

A Ilha de Santa Catarina, localizada em Florianópolis-SC, é uma ilha costeira que apresenta diversos ecossistemas costeiros e marinhos, como costões rochosos, dunas, restingas e manguezais. Para a proteção desses ambientes e penalização dos infratores que causam danos a eles, é utilizado o instrumento legal da fiscalização. No entanto, ainda que de grande importância, há baixa efetividade nesse mecanismo punitivo para coibir danos ao meio ambiente, tendo em os vista diversos problemas estruturais dos órgãos ambientais e as próprias limitações dos instrumentos coercitivos. Na área da prevenção de infrações e danos ao meio ambiente, a educação ambiental pode trazer resultados positivos, pois é um instrumento efetivo para a conscientização e a reflexão ambiental. Além disso, considerando que grande parte dos brasileiros moram na zona costeira e são impactados pelos oceanos e ecossistemas associados, é necessário também incluir a temática da cultura oceânica nos conteúdos de educação ambiental. Tendo em vista o exposto, objetivou-se neste trabalho, elaborar uma cartilha de educação ambiental voltada à prevenção de infrações ambientais na Ilha de SC, considerando a necessidade de um material consistente, didático e acessível que pudesse compilar as diversas legislações e conteúdos relacionados ao meio ambiente ilhéu. O público-alvo é amplo, podendo ser utilizada pela população em geral, por professores, instrutores, e demais interessados.

Objectives: Describe and benchmark strategies and practices used in the field across the United States to control and eliminate porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) virus in response to PRRS outbreaks from 2019 to 2021. Materials and methods: A voluntary survey was used to collect information on practices implemented in response to PRRS outbreaks in different herds from 2019 to 2021. Information about herd demographic characteristics, biomanagement practices, diagnostic test and testing results, and production data were collected, collated, standardized, and described according to the herd’s outbreak characteristics. Results: A diversity of biomanagement practices were observed among 86 herd outbreaks. The median time to stability (TTS) was 38.0 weeks (interquartile range (IQR), 32.0-49.0 weeks), and time to baseline productivity (TTBP) was 22.0 weeks (IQR, 15.0-26.0 weeks). The median total production losses (TL) was 3675 pigs per 1000 sows (IQR, 2356-6845 pigs per 1000 sows); TTS and TTBP were longer and TL higher than a study reported ten years ago (26.6 weeks, 16.5 weeks, and 2217 pigs/1000 sows, respectively). Herd closure strategy, herd interventions such as live virus inoculation and modified-live virus vaccine, and biomanagement strategies to reduce virus transmission among sows and pigs were inconsistent among the studied herds. Implications: Under the conditions of this study, management practices used during PRRS outbreaks were highly diverse among herds. In addition, herd closure, interventions, and biomanagement strategies were inconsistent. The TTS and TTBP were longer, and TL was higher than reported 10 years ago.

In the conventional approach for test jig is equipped by mounting an insulation material pattern above the flexible conductive screen. This is done by maintaining small distance away from the PCB of same pattern in order to detect particular defect location. It is then done by scanning the pattern with help of the roller which forces these two patterns into making contact by passing current from the screen side to side in the wiring board at scan. Prerequisites are prepared to examine involuntarily X and Y coordinated positions of a fault spot into a register. But it has several disadvantages like incompatibility for different size boards, and multilayered testing is not possible, as testing procedure takes a lot of time. To overcome the above said problems the objective of this work is to design and develop an embedded based PCB bare board testing machine by using the flexible flying probe. It acts as a major replacement for the manual testing process conducted by the jig method. This machine is able to inspect multi-layered boards within a short period of time. The second work is the extension of the previous work. It performs the image comparison process using the fuzzy PCA algorithm which determines the presence of error in the testing of the PCB bare board image with already stored error free template image of PCB and it produces matching accuracy in percentage. If the result is 100% then the testing bare board is defect free, otherwise it is identified as a defected PCB. Keywords— Embedded system; flying probe; PCA Algorithm; Bare PCB board; Micro stepping motors.
“Lost Child” or Vanguard? Linking Fatyanovo Population with Middle Volga Abashevo Culture using Ancient DNA Sequencing Data

Published: September 2024

High-throughput sequencing of ancient DNA from Fatyanovo and Abashevo cultures (7 and 3 men, respectively) has led to new hypotheses about their origin and contacts. According to published archaeological evidence, i. e., due to striking similarities between the grave goods discovered in the Middle Volga Abashevo burial complexes and those found in the bell-shaped beaker culture, it is believed that the Fatyanovo people may have descended from the Corded Ware Culture. The present study demonstrates, for the first time, the remarkable similarity between the Fatyanovo people, as represented by the Volosovo-Danilovsky and Nikultsino burial grounds in the Yaroslavl region, and three distinct cultural groups: a) the Corded Culture People, primarily from Bohemia and Germany, b) the Bell-Beaker cultures, found in the same region as well as in France and the Netherlands, and c) the bearers of the Unetice culture. Furthermore, the Abashevite from the Pepkino mound (burial id 18) is genetically similar to several Fatyanovo individuals from the Volosovo-Danilovsky and Nikultsino burial grounds. Finally, the new set of AMS-radiocarbon dates has helped to narrow down the chronological gap between the Fatyanovo and Abashevo people’s expansion towards the Upper and Middle Volga regions, thereby indicating a direct contact between these two groups. Therefore, we can hypothesize that the highly mobile and dispersed lifestyle intrinsic to cattle-breeders may have led to the reclamation of vast territories in the east while still maintaining close ties with their ancestral lands. In conclusion, our findings demonstrate that the Fatyanovo and Abashevo people likely originate from the same genetic background and are integral parts of the Corded Culture world, rather than “lost children” as previously assumed.
“Sauromato”: Early Sarmatian Differently Oriented Burials (Formulation of the Problem)
Authors:   Margulan Institute of Archaeology, Seitov Abay
Published: September 2024

The article examines the “Sauromat” and Early Sarmatian joint burials with different orientations using correlation and statistical methods. The analysis involves 149 individuals from 37 burials (28 collective, 9 double/paired) located in the steppe zone from the Tobol-Turgai steppes (Northern Kazakhstan) in the east to the right bank of the Lower Don in the west. The correlation analysis revealed no strict relationship between the signs. However, there is a positive trend in the correlation of southern orientation with weapons and western orientation with “women’s” items and jewelry. Additionally, the southern sector of the orientation is relatively more correlated with burials at the center of the pit/buried soil. The northern orientation is mainly associated with burials of women, children and individuals of low status. The diverse orientation could be influenced by social, gender, age, ethno-cultural, ritual and practical factors. Overall, the interpretation of differently oriented burials is ambiguous, and further research in this aspect of the burial tradition of early nomads is necessary.
Notes on the Interpretation of Some Non-standard Archaeological Objects
Authors:   South Ukrainian National Pedagogical University named after K. D. Ushinsky, Bruyako Igor
Published: September 2024

In different years, several dugout-type chambers were excavated on the ancient hillfort Kartal. The chambers are similar to each other and have an unusual design and interior. There are no publications about such complexes in the scientific literature. One distinctive feature of these chambers is that they each contain three hearths or stoves with sloping hearths. These structures discovered in Kartal belong to the settlement of the Getae culture and date back to the middle to the second half of the 4th century BC. A few possible functions of these structures were discussed when residential, productional, and cultural ones were successively excluded. It was concluded instead that they were most likely used for processing agricultural products, specifically for drying grain for storage or transportation. This interpretation aligns with the generally recognized agrarian dominant in the economy of the Getae.

Residential Hollowing and Its Drivers in Traditional Chinese Villages: Case Study of Wentang Village, Anhui Province
Authors: Wang Yu , Uekita Yasufumi
Published: September 2024

This study investigates the vacancy of traditional dwellings in Wentang Village, Qimen County, Anhui Province, China, and explores the underlying mechanisms driving the phenomenon of hollowing out. Through field surveys, interviews, and data analysis, the study reveals that the vacancy rate of traditional dwellings in Wentang Village is as high as 73%, compared to a significantly lower rate of 18.4% for newly built houses. The findings indicate that the hollowing out of the village is driven by factors such as urbanization, shifts in agricultural production methods, and changes in family structures. The study concludes that residents have experienced a phased migration from traditional dwellings to newly built houses and subsequently to urban residences. This transition is accompanied by increasing connections between villages and cities, as well as a decline in agricultural activities, which is pushing rural labor towards non-agricultural employment.

Well-designed admission criteria can predict the likelihood of students succeeding in the medical program. This study aims to evaluate the predictive capability of the admission qualifications used in the Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila (PLM) College of Medicine concerning the academic performance of first-year medical students. Data from 1,203 students were analyzed, revealing that premedical general weighted average (GWA) and National Medical Admission Test (NMAT) scores significantly correlate with academic performance in the first year, whereas Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) scores do not. The interview, when combined with GWA and NMAT scores, can also predict the students’ final GWA at the end of their first year. Premedical school and courses are also potential predictors of academic success. This study holds significant implications in refining the admission criteria in this university that would ensure academic success of the students.

Proficiency in speaking enables young learners to express themselves, convey ideas, and communicate effectively. This quasi-experimental research aims to investigate the effect of board games on Thai EFL primary students' speaking skills and examine their perceptions regarding the use of board games in enhancing speaking skills. The study included 86 sixth-grade students from two intact classes and assigned them to a control group and an experimental group. The speaking pre-test and post-test were administered to collect data before and after a six-week treatment period. A semi-structured interview was conducted with six participants to examine their perceptions regarding board game instruction. The quantitative data collected from the speaking pre-test and post-test were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, including means, standard deviations, paired-samples t-tests, and independent-samples t-tests. The qualitative data from the semi-structured interview were analyzed using thematic analysis. Data analysis revealed that the experimental group receiving board game instruction obtained higher scores on the speaking tests than the control group. The results showed that there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups at the 0.05 level. In addition, the data from the semi-structured interview revealed participants’ positive perceptions regarding board game instruction as it created a positive classroom atmosphere and enhanced both the functional and emotional benefits for the participants.

The COVID-19 pandemic forced a rapid shift to online learning, revealing significant challenges for elementary students’ foundational academic and emotional development. This study explores the impact of remote learning on students with pre-existing—yet unidentified—attention and mood-related challenges, and aims to shed light on the academic and emotional gaps observed upon the return to in-person learning. To illustrate the extent of observed academic and emotional challenges, two neuropsychological case studies are presented; changes in academic performance, attention, executive function, and emotional well-being, during and after the pandemic, are examined. Findings highlight that, for some students, remote learning catalyzed or exacerbated such challenges. Furthermore, findings underscore the importance of renewed urgency for tailored support and re-evaluation of student needs, regardless of overt risk factors, especially upon returning to traditional school environments. Strategies for academic screening and social-emotional support are proposed as a means to mitigate long-term effects of educational disruptions. It is imperative that future research not only aims to better understand the learning trends observed in this specific cohort, but in the event of inevitable future school disruptions, also endeavors to establish a blueprint for supporting student needs and minimizing educational gaps.

Hakim dianggap selalu mengetahui hukumnya (ius curia novit), maka putusan itu harus memuat pertimbangan pertimbangan yang memadai, yang bisa diterima secara nalar di kalangan forum keilmuan, masyarakat luas dan para pihak yang berperkara. Hakim perlu mencermati agar putusannya sejalan dengan doktrin ilmu pengetahuan hukum. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menganalisis kebebasan hakim dan kendala yang dihadapinya dalam menjatuhkan putusan di pengadilan. Penelitian ini menggunakan tipe penelitian yuridis empiris. Hasil penelitian ini adalah hakim harus memiliki moral dan integritas yang tinggi sehingga diharapkan dapat mencerminkan rasa keadilan, menjamin kepastian hukum dan dapat memberikan manfaat bagi masyarakat. Dalam mengadili seseorang, hakim harus terbuka atas kritik membangun dan kebenaran, serta tidak boleh mendasarkan putusan pada perasaannya sendiri. Hakim juga harus benar-benar memperhatikan dan memahami tentang keadaan, kejadian/fakta atas terjadinya tindak pidana, faktor latar belakang dari terdakwa, akibat dari pidana yang dijatuhkan, serta nilai-nilai hidup (etika/norma sopan santun dan agama) yang berkembang dalam masyarakat. Kendala yang dihadapi hakim dalam menjatuhkan putusan di pengadilan terbagi menjadi dua jenis yaitu kendala internal dan kendala eksternal. Kendala internal misalnya pengangkatan hakim yang masih terbatas, pendidikan hakim yang masih tertinggal, penguasaan yang keliru terhadap ilmu hukum, moral hakim yang rendah, kesejahteraan hakim yang kurang diperhatikan. Sedangkan kendala eksternal misalnya kemandirian kekuasaan kehakiman yang sangat bergantung pada hati nurani hakim itu sendiri, pembentukan Undang-Undang yang belum unifikasi, sistem peradilan yang berlaku yang masih tidak transparan, kesadaran partisipasi masyarakat yang masih rendah, dan sistem pengawasan hakim yang tidak optimal.

This study discusses the legal responsibility of children against perpetrators of serious crimes. The question of the extent to which children can be held accountable for their criminal acts has been controversial in the juvenile justice system. Some countries apply a strict legal system, where children can be subject to the same sanctions as adults, while other countries adopt a rehabilitation and reintegration approach. The impact of the approach applied to the legal responsibility of children as perpetrators of serious crimes can affect the future of these children. An approach that focuses on rehabilitation and reintegration provides opportunities for children to find recovery and a second chance in society. However, an approach that promotes punishment can potentially harm children and hinder their rehabilitation process. In this context, it is necessary to have a balanced and comprehensive approach in treating children as perpetrators of serious crimes. Protection of children's rights, moral development and an approach that is based on the best interests of the child must be the cornerstone of the juvenile justice system.
