Is Rotavirus Immunization Safe in Infants Born to Mothers Treated with Immunosuppressive Drugs for Inflammatory Bowel Disease During Pregnancy?
Authors: Smith Christina , Patel Meera , Sigmon Richard , Patel Niraj
Published: February 2021

The licensed rotavirus vaccines are live attenuated and are a component of the routine U.S. childhood immunization schedule. Live vaccines administered to infants of mothers who received biologic response modifiers (BRM) during pregnancy can potentially cause serious vaccine-associated disease. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommends infants born to women who received BRM during pregnancy avoid live viral vaccines during the first year of life. There is a paucity of information regarding adverse events following inadvertent administration of live viral vaccines in these infants. We report three infants, born to mothers receiving infliximab during pregnancy, who tolerated multiple doses of rotavirus vaccine. Live viral vaccines may be safe in infants who were exposed to BRM in utero. Further studies are needed to support this observation, as this could affect current ACIP recommendations.
Challenging pretreatment aspects of lung cancer in Georgia
Authors: Kiladze Ivane , Mariamidze Elene , Jeremic Branislav
Published: February 2021

Lung cancer (LC) continues to be a significant worldwide public health issue. There are several publications addressing specifics of LC worldwide, but none concerning Georgia- a country with high number of smoking population and LC cases. Based on the above facts we conducted the first study in the country that aims both evaluating current pretreatment LC challenges, including barriers for early diagnostics and indicating the future strategies for improved LC care We first analyzed LC statistics and the smoking patterns in the country. Further, we identified other challenging issues in pretreatment diagnostics and staging aspects and finally, provided a survey among LC specialists all over the country to evaluate the situation regarding access and use of radiology investigations and other staging procedures. The survey questionnaire was distributed among LC specialists in main cancer hospitals (n=13) across the country. We identify multiple health challenges. Still there are a high number of smokers in the country which clearly indicates that additional measures focusing on smoking cessation are urgently needed. This is further materialized in the fact that the majority of patients with LC are diagnosed with either locally advanced or metastatic disease. Activation of preventive programs and implementation of LC screening for early detection should hopefully lead to further reduction of national LC mortality rates. We underline the urgent need for implementation of country-adapted diagnostic and therapeutic guidelines and protocols as well as enforcing multidisciplinary team meetings. The great need to introduce screening programs in high risk groups, improve access to modern treatment modalities and standardize national diagnostic and treatment protocols are of paramount importance for better LC care.
O ensinamento pastoral católico sobre o aborto provocado
Authors: Fernandes José de Souza
Published: February 2021

Este breve estudo sobre o aborto procurado limita-se a uma análise do ensinamento oficial da moral católica. Este propõe-se examinar alguns pronunciamentos do Magistério ordinário e universal da Igreja. A referência aos pronunciamentos do Magistério eclesiástico tem por objetivo verificar como é que esses documentos apresentam a doutrina da Igreja sobre o aborto procurado e se eles fecham ou não o debate à possibilidade de um diálogo com os demais segmentos da sociedade atual que também se interessam por essa questão. Os resultados alcançados mostram que tais ensinamentos não são tão fechados como às vezes se costuma interpretar e divulgar. Além disso, a título de sugestão, sugerir-se-á um critério de leitura a propósito dos documentos da Igreja sobre o aborto procurado.

Authors: Gargy Sumedha , Jha Rohit Kumar , Kushwaha Ajit Kumar , Kumar Mukunda
Published: February 2021

5% of all ovarian tumours are accounted to germ cell tumours (GCT’s). Affecting mostly young women, the highest incidence is seen in second and third decade of life. They are highly malignant but chemosensitive and more curable than their epithelial counterparts. Treating these tumors with effective surgery and combination chemotherapy survival rates have dramatically improved in recent decades.  We present our experience of ovarian germ cell tumours in theDepartment of Surgical Oncology, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS), Ranchi with special emphasis on treatment outcomes. A retrospective review of hospital medical records of patients with ovarian germ cell tumours diagnosed and treated at RIMS from June 2019 to August 2020, was performed. Clinical profile and treatment outcome of patients were recorded. A total of 19 patients met criteria. The median age at diagnosis was 20 years (range 11–42 years) and all had good performance status. All except two patients underwent surgery, 70.6% and 29.4% in upfront and interval debulking surgery (IDS) setting respectively.  Fertility preserving surgery was done in 75% patients in the primary surgery group and 60% undergoing IDS.  83.3% patients received BEP as adjuvant chemotherapy whereas 80% as neo-adjuvant chemotherapy. Majority (31.5%) patients had dysgerminoma as final histology, followed by mixed histology(26.3%), yolk sac tumour (15.7%), immature teratoma (15.7%) and choriocarcinoma (10.5%) 47.3% patients were in Stage I at the time of diagnosis. 78.9%  patients were alive without disease, 10.5% recurred,  and 10.5% were lost to follow up.
Electrified water as a regulator of cell proliferation
Authors: Pivovarenko Yuri
Published: February 2021

It was previously found that the electric charge of water determines its ability to interact with other substances, including biologically significant ones. It is shown here that the electric charge of water can also determine its ability to penetrate and accumulate in living cells. In particular, it has been shown that the high penetrating ability of positively charged water determines both its active penetration into cells and accumulation in them, which creates favourable conditions for cell proliferation. At the same time, it has been shown that the low penetrating ability of negatively charged water determines its ability to slow down cell proliferation. It also discusses how medics can obtain and use water at different charges.

Aim: Evaluation of the antitumor activity of the new drug Dekoglitz in animals with tumor strains of Sarcoma 45 in comparison with the drug dekocin, from which it was obtained, as well as with 5-fluorouracil and etoposide, and on ovarian tumors (OT) in comparison with the drug dekocin and identification of the effect of Dekoglitz on NA synthesis and internucleosomal DNA degradation. Methods: The study of preparations was carried out on 68 outbred rats with transplanted C-45 and OT tumors. The alkylating effect of the drugs was studied on cells tumor of Sarcoma 180. Results: The antitumor activity of dekoglitz on Sarcoma 45 was high, about 98/96%, with a remission rate of 80%. Its effect was 28-24% higher than that of dekocin. On OT, the effect of decoglitz with intraperitoneal administration reached 89/76% with a remission rate of 40%, with oral administration 96/86% with a remission rate of 60%. Conclusion: The study of the new drug Dekoglitz on animals with a tumor of Sarcoma 45 revealed its higher activity (by 20-27%) in comparison with the original Dekocin, 5-fluorouracil and etoposide with a lower level of side effects. On OT, the effect of Dekoglitz was 35-40% higher, especially after oral administration. Apparently, the great ability to suppress the synthesis of NA and carry out internucleosomal degradation and fragmentation of tumor DNA by the new drugs dekoglitz explains its antitumor efficacy, which is greater than that of Dekocin (K-18) in experiments on tumors.

A high-fat diet can increase lipoprotein levels, total cholesterol, (Low Density Lipoprotein) LDL, and triglycerides. Starfruit has saponin and flavonoid compounds which are expected to reducing LDL cholesterol levels. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of starfruit juice on lowering the blood cholesterol LDL of Wistar rats fed with high-fat diet. Experimental study with post-test only control group design. As many as 24 male white rats from the Wistar strain were divided into 3 groups: negative control groups (K-) that were given standard feed for 28 days; positive control group (K+) who were given a high-fat diet for 28 days; the treatment group (KP) was given a high-fat diet for 28 days and on the 15th day 28th they were given a starfruit juice with a dose of 4ml / 200grBB / day. Day 29 measured LDL cholesterol. The statistic test showed a significant increase in LDL cholesterol levels (p=0.001) in the positive control group (x=12.125±2.642 mg/dL) compared to the negative control group (x=7.625±1.506 mg/dL). There was no significant different the mean cholesterol level of the treatment group (x=11±1.927) compared to the mean LDL cholesterol level of the positive control group (x=12.125±2.642). A high-fat diet significantly increases the mean LDL cholesterol level. Starfruit juice did not significantly reduce LDL cholesterol level.

Twin pregnancy with Hydatidiform Mole is a rare case, only about 1 in 22.000 to 100.000 pregnancies. Molar pregnancy with triplet pregnancy is even rarer, which is only 6 cases reported and mostly occurred in women who received therapy for infertility. Management in cases of twin pregnancy with hydatidiform mole is dilemmatic both for the patient and physician. We present a case of 29 years old woman with her first pregnancy of twin fetuses complicated with hydatidiform mole. Diagnostic approaches were made mainly by ultrasound examination, continued with laboratory and radiology examinations which some did not performed due to worsened vaginal bleeding. This case ended with premature labor with the result of delivery of two babies and placenta with vesicles which is a characteristic of hydatidiform mole.

Published: February 2021

The purpose of this study is to adapt the Berkeley Parenting Self-Efficacy Scale Revised (BPSE-R) to Turkish. The scale is composed of two subscales, parental strategies and child outcomes, and includes 18 items. In the process of adapting the scale and examining its reliability and validity, 354 mothers of preschool children were selected through convenience sampling. After translation-and back translation procedures, the BPSE-R was evaluated by field experts, and the scale items were found to be consistent. Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the scale has a two-factor structure similar to the original scale. The fit indices obtained for this two-factor structure were found to be at a good level. The total score Cronbach’s alpha internal consistency coefficient was calculated as 0.91, and the test-retest reliability coefficient was calculated as 0.67. Findings demonstrated that the Turkish version of the BPSE-R has adequate psychometric characteristics and can be used in determining the self-efficacy of parents in Turkey with preschool-aged children. The short duration in which the BPSE-R can be applied and its high reliability make it convenient for use in research.
Potenzial und Ambivalenz persönlicher Alltagsdinge beim Übergang in institutionalisierte Wohnformen des Alter(n)s
Authors: Depner Anamaria
Published: February 2021

Basierend auf den Ansätzen der Material Culture Studies, welche die Dinge als physisch Anwesende, uns entgegengeworfene Entitäten betrachten, wird der Umzugsprozess Hochbetagter in Altenheime untersucht. Bei der Betrachtung des Umgangs mit den eigenen Dingen im Kontext dieses Überganges zeigen sich mehrere Aspekte: Unter veränderten Lebensumständen ihrer Besitzer können einst bedeutende Dinge oder Ding-Ensembles diesen (unbehaglich) bedeutungslos werden. Zugleich können Dinge gerade aufgrund ihrer hohen Bedeutung für ihre Besitzer weggeworfen oder gar zerstört werden. Die Möglichkeit, hinsichtlich der eigenen Dinge über die Weitergabe(form) oder das Ende ihrer Existenz zu entscheiden, ist relevant für die Senioren, überfordert diese aber zugleich. Die eigenhändige Entsorgung oder Zerstörung persönlicher, mitunter biografischer Objekte trägt selbstbestätigende und emanzipatorische Züge. Es gibt eine Vielzahl von Möglichkeiten, die hier skizzierte Untersuchung durch eine interdisziplinäre Betrachtungsweise für die Praxis fruchtbar zu machen, beispielsweise indem unerwartete Verhaltensweisen im Umgang mit den eigenen Dingen vom sozialen Umfeld verstanden und ernstgenommen werden.
»Man kennt nur die Dinge, die man zähmt«
Authors: Hirsch Rolf D.
Published: February 2021

Demenz ist ein Sammelbegriff verschiedenster Erkrankungen. Dieser wird allerdings im DSM-5 und auch im künftigen ICD-11 nicht mehr verwendet. Neu eingeführt wird stattdessen die Bezeichnung »neurokognitive Störungen«, die auf explizit definierten kognitiven Domänen basieren. Der Begriff Demenz ist entsprechend dem ICD-10 noch gültig, weit verbreitet und wird noch längere Zeit angewandt werden; dementsprechend auch in diesem Beitrag. Die häufigste Form ist die Alzheimer-Demenz (AD), die im Fokus des Beitrags steht. Zunehmend differenziertere Kenntnisse gibt es über die Pathologie, insbesondere über neurobiologische Vorgänge der AD, während die Ätiologie noch weitgehend unbekannt ist. AD kann durch ein monokausales Krankheitsmodell nicht erklärt werden; sie wird als ein multifaktorielles prozesshaftes Geschehen verstanden.
Geschichtsvergessenheit
Authors: von der Stein Bertram
Published: February 2021

Trotz offizieller Erinnerungskultur und einer Vielzahl populärer Literatur und Sendungen zu historischen Themen setzt sich in den »Psychofächern« eine bereits seit längerer Zeit bestehende Tendenz zum fehlenden zeitgeschichtlichen Bewusstsein fort. Der Autor betont die Bedeutung psychohistorischer Erkenntnishaltung für Therapeuten nicht zuletzt vor dem Hintergrund einer Diversifizierung von Herkunftsmilieus und frühen Erfahrungen älterer Menschen. In einer Zeit, in der Rechtspopulismus und alte Ressentiments auftauchen, ist eine offensive Betonung der Bedeutung psychohistorischer Zusammenhänge wichtiger denn je.

The conclusion is made that initial abbreviation is a highly productive way of term formation in the modern English bridge building terminology. The conducted research allows identifying phenomena of polysemy, homonymy, synonymy and antonymy typical of scientific and technical terminology.
Faces of Russia: Linguistic Means of Creating Russia’s Image in the American Encyclopedistics (by the Example of “The Oxford Encyclopedia of Women in World History”)
Authors: Barsukova Elena Alexandrovna
Published: February 2021

The paper aims to reveal the peculiarities of Russia’s image representation in the English-language encyclopedic reference. The researcher estimates the level of representation of the Russian anthroponyms in the macrostructure of the encyclopedia under consideration, reveals compilers’ attitude towards the biographical subjects that is manifested in the choice of facts presented and linguistic means used. Scientific originality of the study lies in the fact that the researcher identifies components of Russia’s image in the American encyclopedic edition and compiles a list of the lexemes most frequently used to describe the Russian reality. The conducted research allows concluding that the use of pejorative vocabulary in the conceptual blocks “State System”, “Women’s Status”, “Social Injustice”, “Repressions” creates a controversial image of Russia.

Problem of Differentiating Homogeneous Coordinate Adverbial Modifiers (by the Material of the French and Russian Languages)
Authors: Gazilov Magomed Gazilovich
Published: February 2021

The paper aims to show how the syntactic position of adverbial construction components influences their homogeneity. The article analyses functioning of homogeneous coordinate adverbial modifiers in the French and Russian languages. Scientific originality of the research lies in the fact that the author provides a comparative study of the form and semantics of homogeneous coordinate constructions. Using factual material of the French and Russian languages, the researcher for the first time examines influence of the syntactic position of adverbial construction components on their homogeneity. The analysis of linguistic material indicates that in the Russian and French languages, replacement of homogeneous sentence members promotes evolution of their linguistic features, in particular, transformation of homogeneous adverbial modifiers into non-homogeneous ones.

Authors: Garipova Gulchira Talgatovna
Published: February 2021

The main purpose of the study is to determine specificity of functioning of double artistic reference as a method of world modelling in the process of ontologising cultural and philosophical images in prose of the “generation of forty-year-olds”. The article presents an analysis of the mythologeme “forest”, corresponding to the receptive concepts of “The Philosophy of the Common Task” by N. Fyodorov and the novella “Soul” by A. Platonov. Scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that for the first time referential field of the context peculiar to the mythopoetic meta-image “forest” in works by A. Bitov and A. Kim was identified, its components being archetypical, cultural and philosophical meanings. As a result, the “world-like” meta-image “forest” is defined as a meaning-bearing concentric circle of providential premonition about downfall of the “common task” in social entropy of “existential loneliness”.

This article examines functioning of language means in J. R. R. Tolkien’s creative work. The research aims to substantiate linguistic nature of the writer’s works through an analysis of the texts’ language characteristics, using the novella “The Hobbit, or There and Back Again”, the novel “The Lord of the Rings” and the cycle “The Silmarillion” as examples. Scientific novelty of the research lies in considering the author’s creative heritage through the lens of philosophy of language represented by O. Barfield’s and G. Deleuze’s ideas. The result of the research amounts to defining aesthetic, accumulative, nominative and mythmaking functions of the language as a basis of Tolkien’s creative efforts, the purpose of which was to reconstruct the English mythology.
Emotional, Expressive and Evaluative Translation Equivalence of Political Speeches (by the Material of Campaign Speeches of the 2020 US Presidential Candidates)
Authors: Shageeva Anna Alekseevna , Sobakina Viktoriia Vadimovna
Published: February 2021

The purpose of the study is to identify ways of achieving emotional, evaluative and expressive equivalence in translation, which will make it possible to create an equivalent translation of the original speech texts of the US presidential candidates. The article deals with units from an English-language text of the considered genre with their subsequent translation. The work is novel in that it examines ways of achieving three types of translation equivalence of political speeches at once and explains variants of translation of the studied units. As a result, it is proved that at the lexical level, connotation is more often conveyed through variable equivalents; at the syntactic and lexical levels considered together, in more than 50% of cases, equivalence can be achieved through translation transformations.
The Eurosceptical and Autonomous Discourses on the Process of European Integration of the Czech Republic
Authors: Poveda Oleksandr
Published: February 2021

The peculiarities of the attitude of the two leading Czech political parties regarding the process of European integration through the prism of the effectiveness of the protection of national interests at the supranational level are analyzed in the given article. While conducting this study, it was revealed, that once it became clear that accession to the European Union would inevitably require certain national concessions from the Czech Republic, the leading Civic Democratic Party began to declare an increasingly Eurosceptic position. Gradually, EU membership was considered by it only through the prism of realizing the economic interests of the country. Civic Democrats have become even more vigorous opponents of deepening European integration and have strongly opposed the adoption of a common EU Constitution and federalization and have opposed any attempt to alienate part of national sovereignty in favor of the EU, since the Czech Republic joined the European Union. The author emphasizes that the disapproval by CDP of further European integration is explained by the historical fears of many Czechs, who are convinced that the development of the EU in a federal direction is in line with German interests and aspirations to dominate in Europe. The author also stresses on the fact, that the anti-German attitude of the Civic Democrats stems from the history of relations between two nations which have never been friendly and is explained by fears about further economic expansion of Germany in the Czech Republic. It was found that the discourse of Czech Communists on European integration is quite autonomous, because, in contrast to the CDP (and in general to all other parliamentary parties of the country), which although remains critical of the EU, but it does not question the Czech Republic membership in the European Union, the Communist Party does not consider any prospects for the functioning of the EU at all, and it does not consider the expediency of Czech Prepublic membership in it. Key words: Czech Republic; European integration; Civic Democratic Party; Communist Party of the Czech Republic and Moravia; Euroscepticism; Autonomist discourse.
From Strategic Partnership to Limited Cooperation. Polish-Ukrainian Relations 2015–2019
Authors: Mróz Maciej
Published: February 2021

The previous model of the Polish-Ukrainian relations has come to an end, while the new one is in the phase of statu nascendi. The fundamental contradiction of the basic interests of Kiev and Warsaw has worked out and is still relevant up to date. While Ukraine is looking for ways to integrate with the EU and needs a strong Europe, putting on Paris and Berlin, and thus ipso facto focusing on strengthening the European community, Poland has entered the path of euro-skepticism and quasi-Jagiellonian policy. The concept of a good change has triggered the most serious reorientation in foreign policy of Poland over the last quarter of a century. The amazement of the outside observers, also in Ukraine, might be aroused by the fact that Polish Eastern policy has been pursued by the same circle of experts under the previous government of the PO–PSL coalition as well as under the current government of the PiS-led united right. After several years of the right-wing rule the Ukrainian analysts see the growing degradation process of Poland’s significance in Europe, its increasing confrontational tendencies towards countries outside the European Union, including relations with Ukraine. Primarily, it is a political dimension, though, it can be perceived also as a symbolic dimension and symbols mean a lot in politics. Key words: Poland; Ukraine; European Union; NATO; United States of America; Russian Federation; Intermarium; Germany.

Definitions of Separatism in the Scientific Discourse
Authors: Fedun Oleksandra , Sharan Olha
Published: February 2021

The separatist movements have significantly intensified in many European states, most notably in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and Spain, which were empires before the collapse of colonialism in the 20th century and expanded their territories by conquering the neighboring countries. Today, within the majority of multiethnic states, there are historical and geographical regions where indigenous ethnic communities seek to secede and gain independence. The economic factors and identity based on common language, culture and history usually play a significant role in the development of separatist movements. It should be noted that the activities of the separatist movements threaten the sustainable development and functioning of the system of international relations. Since the international law does not specify which social groups can exercise their right to self-determination, the following dilemma often arises: should the principle of territorial integrity of states prevail over the right of the nation to self-determination, or vice versa? Nowadays, the problem of separatism has gone beyond the internal politics of the state and has gained the international importance. First of all, this is due to the fact that the third parties intervene in the conflicts in order to destabilize the situation in certain countries and to strengthen their influence in a particular region. Trying to avoid criminal responsibility and imposition of international sanctions, separatists do not resort to open armed attacks on neighboring countries, which is a clear act of aggression, and use hybrid warfare techniques instead. Taking into consideration the current Ukrainian statehood challenge and the real threat to our country’s territorial integrity, the study of separatism as an actual threat to national security is essential. Despite the large number of scientific works devoted to this phenomenon, it is necessary to continue the comprehensive research of separatism. That is why the scientific approaches to the definition of separatism are analyzed in this article, and its nature is investigated. Key words: separatism; separatist movement; secession; irredentism; nationalism; ethnopolitical conflict.
Social Dialects in Modern French Language
Authors: Bernetska Galina
Published: February 2021

The article is a study of phonetic-morphological and semantic-stylistic features of argotic vocabulary in contemporary French language. The work is devoted to questions of structural-semantic and phonetic-morphological peculiarities of the argotic vocabulary in printed mass media. The conducted research has shown that the argotic vocabulary can be considered as a special lexical subsystem of spoken language, which is characterized by a steady tendency to penetrate into higher linguistic levels due to its phonetic-morphological and semantic features. The systematization of phonetic and semantic processes in the argotic dictionary is carried out. We have noticed that argot from a linguistic point of view is an expressive lexical subsystem of spoken language, which is characterized by a large expressive potential and rapid changes in vocabulary and penetrates into higher levels of the French language. From the point of view of modern linguistics, the French language can be viewed in vertical and horizontal sections. Horizontal division is caused by the existence of the dialectal partition of the French language. The vertical division is explained by the existence of social groups that use one or another sociolect. Analyzing the evolution of the definition of argot, we can assume that in its development argot passed the long way from the language taboo to the special lexical subsystem of the literary-spoken language. We have noticed that it is important to distinguish argot and spoken language. In spite of the both scientific and practical interest in the spoken language problem and the emergence of numerous studies that led to the creation of colloquialism as a special section of linguistics, a number of aspects of spoken language (approaches to its identification, differentiation of spoken language and related phenomena) remain insufficiently highlighted. The spoken language (vernacular), according to modern linguistic assertions, occupies an intermediate position between the spoken-literary language, dialects and sociolects. We have noticed that the democratization of the norms of the literary language led to the emergence of a literary-colloquial form of spoken language. Such a combination of literary and spoken language is caused by the nature of social development. Key words: argot; slang; French language; dialect; argotheistic vocabulary; non-normative variant elements; semantics; phonetics; morphology; mass media.
Phraseological Units and Their Transformations
Authors: Rabosh Galina
Published: February 2021

The peculiarity of French phraseologisms is that they are frequently used in the language of scientific, business and journalistic style. These are expressions from ancient literature, Greek and Latin phraseologies without translation. The construction of phrases assumes certain types and means of syntax, semantics and grammatical features of components, lexical and stylistic differentiation of components. The main role in the formation of the utterance is given to the verb, since it expresses the mode of action (punitive, conditional ...), its completeness or incompleteness, conditionality or unconditionality. In addition to grammatical meanings, the verb assumes its own semantics i.e. compatibility of the verb with nouns, adverbs or prepositions. An important role is played by the phenomenon of the propagation of the value of components or components of phraseology, when additional components enhance or actualize the fundamental value of phraseology and add more expressiveness to the given phraseological unit. Particular attention is given to phrases in which the internal form is conditioned by the use of prepositions, conjunctions, which serve to convey various circumstantial meanings. That is, additional components actualize the fundamental importance of phraseologism. Key words: phraseologies; literal meaning; idioms; images.

Comparison of stabilizing mechanisms between discrete- and continuous-time consumer-resource models
Authors: Singh Abhyudai
Published: February 2021

There is rich literature on using continuous-time and discrete-time models for studying population dynamics of consumer-resource interactions. The continuous-time framework is generally used to model populations with overlapping generations and all year-round reproduction. In contrast, discrete-time models are more suited for populations with non-overlapping generations that reproduce in a discrete pulse determined by season. Inspired by the Nicholson-Bailey/Lotka-Volterra modeling formalisms in discrete-time/continuous-time, respectively, we consider host-parasitoid interactions with an arbitrary parasitoid attack rate that is a function of  both the host and parasitoid population densities. We characterize and compare stability regimes in both modeling frameworks for analogous host reproduction and attack rates. Our analysis shows that a Type II functional response is stabilizing in both modeling frameworks only when combined with other mechanisms, such as mutual interference between parasitoids. This stability regime related to a Type II functional response  is smaller in the discrete-time framework compared to continuous-time, and shrinks with increasing host reproduction. A Type III functional response is by itself stabilizing, but the extent of attack-rate acceleration needed is much higher in the discrete-time framework, and its stability regime expands with increasing host reproduction. Finally, our results show that while mutual parasitoid interference can stabilize population dynamics, cooperation between parasitoids to handle hosts is destabilizing  in both frameworks. However, a combination of a Type III functional response together with parasitoid cooperation can create stability. In summary, our comparative analysis systematically characterizes diverse ecological processes driving stable population dynamics in discrete-time and continuous-time consumer-resource models.

From Mindsponge Process to Discovery
Authors: Nguyen Minh-Hoang
Published: February 2021

Just a few days ago, my colleagues and I completed a manuscript titled “Alice in Suicideland: Exploring the suicidal ideation mechanism through social connectedness and help-seeking behaviors”. In the manuscript, we explain how the suicidal ideation mechanism happens in the students’ minds and how suicidal ideation can be prevented by help-related information employing the Mindsponge mechanism. Though thought-provoking, the mechanism obtains high complexity and dynamics and might be subversive to the existing literature in Psychological sciences. But, how did I come up with such a discovery? In this essay, I provide a reflection on how I explored the idea using the Mindsponge process.
