Decrease in physical activity parameters in remote monitoring of patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices
Authors: Świerżyńska Ewa , Sterliński Maciej
Published: July 2022

Changes in physical activity, combined with assessment of other symptoms and parameters, may be a valuable factor for the prognosis of cardiovascular disease. Implantable electronic devices use built-in accelerometers and other sensors to record the duration and intensity of physical exertion. Telemonitoring of implantable electronic devices allows for up-to-date diagnostic and therapeutic parameters and statistics to be obtained remotely. This article discusses potential methods for using remotely obtained information about changes in physical activity to treat patients with implanted cardiac devices.

The plants native to tropical climates and even southern Africa (5/8) are considerable, which served as a matrix for the isolation and identification of natural sweeteners. These compounds of plant origin have become essential in many fields. From the agronomic industry to the pharmaceutical industry, their use is aimed at combating the supply of glucose and additional calories to consumers who wage a fierce fight against metabolic diseases. In this context, that vascular plants capable of harboring new molecules with similar sweet principles are of interest to researchers. Indeed, these molecules of global interest mainly belong to the terpene, flavonoid (phenolic) and protein structural classes, but are mainly of protein nature (7/9) whose use would not promote an increase in calories or blood sugar in the subjects who would use them. Therefore, this review aims to understand the information regarding, the phytochemistry and the impact of the use of these sweeteners on those affected by food conditions such as diabetes and obesity. All with the aim of finding other sources of sweeteners in our Burkinabe ecosystem, in order to provide local relief to the affected populations.
Some Remarks Regarding the Hyerarchy of Living Systems
Authors:   Academy of Agricultural and Foresty Sciences from Romania “Gheorghe Ionescu-Sisești”, DONIȚĂ Nicolae
Published: July 2022

The hyerarchy of living systems comprises three categories of systems with distinct structures and functions: the individual, the multiindividual and the multicoenotic ones. Individual systems are: the prokaryotic unicellular organism, the eukaryotic unicelllar system and the pluricellular one. Multiindividual systems are the species and the biocenosis. Species, being differentiated regarding their ecological adapations, can exist only associated in biocenoses (through their populations), never independently; this is why the biocenosis is the only natural multiindividual, ecological system, consisting of other multiindividual systems – species. Multicenotic systems are: the biolandscape, the bioregion, the biozone (biome) and the biosphere. These systems comprise ensembles of different types of biocenoses and look like living covers of various sizes.

The ecosphere is a natural construction, the development of which fundamentally differs from the way the other planets in our solar system evolved. Life emerged consequently to the connection between non-living factors and macromolecules – complex carbon-based compounds. Living beings had the capacity of creating a new type of informational pattern, which soon assumed the coordination of major processes at the planetary level, and the non-living components – the atmosphere, the hydrosphere and the lithosphere – were substantially modified by the biosphere. Our approach regarding thr evolution of life is an ecological one; emphasis is put on the interrelations between the living and the non-living worlds: the emergence of metabolism, interspecific relations, the use of multiple energy sources; the emergence of life generated biogeochemical cycles and evolutionary processes characterized by self-control, self-organization and self-improvement. A special role was played by the transition from the use of chemical energy to the use of light energy, with the release of oxygen, which, owing to oxidative reactions, became the main element in the global development of most energetic processes. Life progressed from self-reproducing organic macromolecules to protoorganisms, then single-celled organisms (prokaryotes) and finally eukaryotic organisms emerged. In time, they populated all environments: the marine, the brackish, the freshwater, the terrestrial and the underground one. Living beings created two planetary covers: the biosphere and the pedosphere. The interconnection of the biosphere with the non-living covers (the atmosphere, the hydrosphere, the lithosphere and the pedosphere) resulted in the emergence of the ecosphere.

Authors: De La Mora Castañeda Jesús Germán , López Mora Ingrid Yolotzin , Chan Cupul Wilberth , Palma García José Manuel
Published: July 2022

Background. Rhynchophorus palmarum is the main insect pest in Cocos nucifera orchards in the Pacific Centre of Mexico. The mass capture of adults is the strategy for control of this pest promoted by integrated pest management programs. It is essential to find an economic and efficient trap for farmers. Objective. The present study aimed to determine the efficacy and cost efficiency of five traps for capturing R. palmarum in a C. nucifera orchard and to correlate the capture with environmental parameters. Methodology. The bucket-trap (BT), trash-can trap (TCT), 20L-type trap (20LTT), bottle-type trap (BTT), and CSAT-type (Colegio Superior de Agricultura Tropical, a Spanish acronym) trap were evaluated. Total captured insects, number of males and females, cost of trapping, and cost-efficiency were measured. Total captured insects and environmental parameters were correlated using a Pearson model. Results. A total of 1065 insects were captured (60% females and 40% males). The TCT captured more (P=0.00001) insects than the BT, 20LTT and BTT. The CSAT ($540.5 USD) and TCT ($531.0 USD) were the most expensive traps during the period of the experiment (4.5 months), whereas the BTT was the cheapest ($515.5 USD). The cost of capture per insect in the TCT was $1.5 USD; therefore, this trap had the best cost efficiency overall of the studied traps (BT=2.6 USD, 20LTT=3.1 USD, CSAT=1.9 USD, and BTT=6.9 USD). The average (r=0.6115, P=0.0154) and maximum (r=0.6280, P=0.0122) wind speeds were correlated positively with the R. palmarum capture. Implications. This study demonstrates statistically that the TCT capture the same number of insects than the CSAT trap with lower cost. Conclusion. More females were caught than males, the TCT trap statistically captures the same amount of insects than the CSAT trap at a lower cost. Wind speed was positively correlated in the capture of R. palmarum.

Authors: Zapata Salas Richard , Guarín José F. , Ríos Osorio Leonardo A.
Published: July 2022

Background: Dairy industry economics and public health are negatively impacted when udder health is compromised. Intramammary infection is the most important infectious problem generating economic losses to the milk production systems around the world. Affectations of animal generated diseases on public health are well known. Several categories of analysis have been studied to implement prevention and control strategies against intramammary disease. However, the control of these affectations has been considered a complex problem based on various factors. Objective: characterize the categories and subcategories of analysis used for the study of udder health published in research papers during the period comprehend between 1962 - 2019. Methodology: A systematic review with a broad approach in the research protocol was designed applying the identification phases, screening, choice, and inclusion criteria described in the PRISMA guide. A qualitative synthesis of year of publication, continent, focus, category of udder health analysis, and subcategories of udder health analysis was performed. Results: We found that more than half of the papers identified in this topic were published in the last decade of the studied period (1962 - 2019). New categories were incorporated into the timeline, evidencing an evolution in the way of understanding udder health problems. Implications: Many of the countries that publish most of the papers have implemented programs and policies on udder health management in recent years. Precisely in the last decade, cultural processes and political processes were incorporated into the study of udder health. This incorporation of new and relevant topics may have been very useful in the design and evaluation of public policies on udder health in those countries. Conclusions: These results show the interest in the academic, productive, and political sectors for udder health and its consequences on public health.

This study offers a literature review of peer feedback literature, pinpoints the gaps, and provides a new, student-friendly 3x3 rubric for argumentative genre in writing through the amalgamation of frameworks in the literature. The pedagogical implication and application stages of the new genre-based rubric are discussed at the end.
Building a Conceptual Model for Performing an Academic Oral Presentation: Cognitive Apprenticeship
Authors: Kazuko Minematsu
Published: July 2022

The purpose of this qualitative study is to investigate how student engagement in cognitive apprenticeship through the pair work activity helps build a conceptual model for performing an academic oral presentation. The participants were university students who were learning English as a foreign language (EFL) in Japan. During the pair work activity, the students practiced their presentations with three different partners, including giving advice and providing feedback. After the pair work activity, the students answered the post-activity questionnaire concerning the four elements of cognitive apprenticeship: modeling, articulation, reflection, and exploration (Collins & Kapur, 2014; Dennen, 2004; Dennen & Burner, 2008). The written responses were coded and analyzed thematically. The findings of the study reveal that these four aspects of cognitive apprenticeship are critically related to building a conceptual model for performing an academic oral presentation: (a) the students could observe and build a conceptual model of the thinking processes necessary for making an oral presentation, (b) they could articulate their ideas about why one oral presentation is "good," but another is "poor," (c) the students could compare their own problem-solving processes with those of other students, and (d) they could pose their own problems and try to find how to solve them.  This study offers new insights into designing and implementing an activity, guiding students to perform an academic oral presentation with appropriate scaffolding in the EFL classroom.
Lexicogrammatical and Semantic Development in Academic Writing of EFL Learners: A Systemic Functional Approach
Authors: Yumiko Mizusawa
Published: July 2022

Many Japanese university students' English writing skills are insufficient despite completing at least six years of English language instruction before entering university. Several researchers have explored this topic. A corpus-based approach to this field, for example, has improved the understanding of the writing skills of learners of English. In Japan, the recent developments in corpus linguistics have enabled instructors and researchers to analyze English linguistic features written by Japanese EFL learners. For example, Mizusawa (2015) referred to the Japanese EFL learner Corpus, a collection of junior high and high school students' English essays, to investigate the linguistic features, such as lexical density, grammatical intricacy, and semantic variations framed by systemic functional linguistics (SFL). This paper aimed to examine English academic writings written by 38 Japanese university students. Their writings were analyzed in terms of lexical density and semantic features within the SFL frameworks. The results highlighted that the critical limitation in Japanese university students' writing skills suggested teaching students the lexicogrammatical differences between written and spoken modes of the English language.
Multilingual Literature in Writing Classes: Bringing out Students' Authentic Voices
Authors: Ekaterina Arshavskaya
Published: July 2022

In this paper, I argue for using the texts written by multilingual writers in second language writing courses. Grounded in the ideas of translanguaging, this instructional approach supports students in using various linguistic resources for different purposes, thus allowing them both to develop positive multilingual and multicultural identities and experience a sense of belonging in the U.S. Moreover, the discussions around the texts were based on a flipped classroom model and were facilitated through an online literature discussion forum. Students' papers and responses in an end-of-semester survey were analyzed using content analysis. The article highlights students' reactions to this instructional practice and suggests possible explanations for some variation. Based on the students' responses, the article suggests a modification for using multilingual literature with this group of students. The paper ends with pedagogical implications for language teachers and researchers and features the instructional materials developed for this study.
Impact of Locally Written Authentic Material in the Teaching of Reading for First-Year Students
Authors: Truong Doan Man
Published: July 2022

This study aimed at examining the effects of locally written authentic reading materials (LARM) on first-year students at a university in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, on their reading comprehension. Thirty-seven first-year students of two English classes took part in the survey. To collect data, a questionnaire adapted from Nuket Gunduz, Deniz Ozcan, Huseyin Uzunboylu (2017) and open-ended questions were delivered to the students at the end of the course. The results revealed that this type of authentic material had positive effects on this group of students. In addition, the findings suggested that traditional textbooks should be supplemented with this type of authentic material. Locally written authentic reading materials in this paper were defined as newspapers and magazines written by local authors, not by native English speakers. This study concluded that this type of authentic material would make positive contributions to the learning of English in higher education in Vietnamese context.
Die Corona-Krise und die sozial-ökologische Transformation: Herausforderungen für die Finanzpolitik
Authors: DULLIEN SEBASTIAN , RIETZLER KATJA , TRUGER ACHIM
Published: July 2022

Die Corona-Krise und die sozial-ökologische Transformation stellen die deutsche Finanzpolitik vor schwierige Herausforderungen. Einerseits bestehen massive zusätzliche öffentliche Finanzbedarfe in der Größenordnung von 600 Mrd. € bis 800 Mrd. € über die nächsten zehn Jahre hinweg, andererseits hat die Bundesregierung im Koalitionsvertrag grundlegende Reformen der Schuldenbremse ausgeschlossen und sieht auch keine Steuererhöhungen vor. Dadurch scheiden eigentlich naheliegende Optionen zur Erschließung der nötigen finanzpolitischen Spielräume aus. Allerdings finden sich im Koalitionsvertrag zahlreiche Instrumente zur Mobilisierung von Kreditspielräumen unter der Schuldenbremse, die grundsätzlich geeignet sind, die wesentlichen Herausforderungen des Bundes in den nächsten Jahren zu meistern, auch wenn die konkrete Ausgestaltung noch offen ist, konkrete Zahlen fehlen und rechtliche Risiken bestehen. Problematischer stellt sich die Lage bei Ländern und Kommunen dar. Es besteht ein hohes Risiko, dass die Investitionen insbesondere der Kommunen in den kommenden Jahren hinter den Erfordernissen zurückbleiben werden.
Welche Rechte braucht der „arbeitende Souverän“? Ideen für eine Weiterentwicklung industrieller Staatsbürgerrechte
Authors: KOHLRAUSCH BETTINA
Published: July 2022

Industrielle Staatsbürgerrechte sind jene Rechte, die unmittelbar mit dem Status als Erwerbsperson verbunden sind. Sie sichern materielle und demokratische Teilhabe, schaffen sozialen Zusammenhalt, garantieren soziale Anerkennung und strukturieren die Vergesellschaftung von Individuen. Dieser Beitrag analysiert die Rolle von industriellen Staatsbürgerrechten für Prozesse gesellschaftlicher Integration und zeigt, dass Erwerbsarbeit nicht nur materielle, sondern auch soziale und demokratische Teilhabe ermöglichen kann und dass diese vier Aspekte erst im Zusammenspiel tatsächliche soziale Integration gewährleisten. Die Betonung des Zusammenspiels aller Aspekte ist zentral, weil sie verdeutlicht, dass demokratische Teilhabe im Erwerbskontext nicht unabhängig von anderen Formen der Teilhabe gedacht werden kann. Es geht darum, dass demokratische Partizipation gesellschaftliche Integration voraussetzt. Ausgehend von diesen Überlegungen diskutiert die Autorin Grenzen des Konzeptes und Eckpunkte für eine mögliche Weiterentwicklung, u. a. im Hinblick auf die fehlende Einbeziehung von unbezahlter Sorgearbeit und die bisherige ausschließlich auf nationale Kontexte fokussierte und damit zu eng gefasste Rahmung industrieller Staatsbürgerrechte.
Danes Say No – and Yes: The Maastricht Referendum and its Legacy
Authors: OLESEN Thorsten Borring
Published: July 2022

When its voters turned down the Maastricht Treaty in 1992, Denmark became the first among today’s EU member states to cast a No vote in a referendum on Euro‐ pean integration. With nine such votes, Denmark has held more referendums on EC/EU matters than any country bar Ireland. Of these, six have resulted in a Yes, while three have produced a No.

This article analyses and discusses the role of referendums in Danish EU polit‐ ics and their impact, both in the short and long term, on how Danish EU policy is formulated and conducted. It focuses on the so-called Maastricht-Edinburgh inter‐ mezzo of 1992-1993, namely the process related to the two referendums which re‐ jected Danish accession to the European Union and paved the way for membership on an opt-out basis. The article will further turn its eye towards the European level to view how the Maastricht-Edinburgh intermezzo influenced and set an example for EC/EU politics and policy at the broader European level. In this way, the article may be seen as an apt prelude to the 50-year anniversary of Denmark’s member‐ ship of the EC/EU due to be celebrated - or regretted - in 2022.
The Great Temptation: Referendums on European Integration from the 1970s to the Present in Historical Perspective
Authors: GEPPERT Dominik , CLEGG Juliane , JAESCHKE Victor
Published: July 2022

Spätestens seit dem Brexit-Votum 2016 werden Europareferenden kontrovers dis‐ kutiert. Der Aufsatz zeigt, wie die historische Forschung zu den Debatten beitragen kann: durch Einordnung in die longue durée der europäischen Referendumsge‐ schichte seit 1970; durch politische, kulturelle und soziale Kontextualisierung; und durch Entschlüsselung der zugrundeliegenden Narrative nationaler Identität. An‐ hand von Fallstudien werden zwei Beobachtungen und zwei Hypothesen formu‐ liert. Erstens fällt auf, dass Nein-Kampagnen mehr von transnationalen Lernpro‐ zessen profitierten als ihre Gegenseiten, und zweitens, dass Referenden statt klarer Handlungsanleitungen eine Vielzahl offener Fragen nach sich zogen. Der Aufsatz vertritt die Hypothesen, dass Referenden erstens ein Ventil für Opposition boten, die in den europäischen Strukturen keinen Raum fand, und dass sie zweitens so‐ wohl Ausdruck als auch Folge wachsender Kritik am Integrationsprozess waren. Zugleich zeigt der deutsche Fall, dass ein Verzicht auf Referenden diese Oppositi‐ on nicht verhindert.

Angesichts der Vielzahl ihrer „Baustellen“ und ihrer kaum zu überschätzenden Bedeutung stellte sich dann aber schnell die Frage, wo beginnen? Ich versuche es einmal vom Ende her: Wer die Nachrufe auf der Seite des Commons Instituts liest, stößt immer wieder auf Sätze wie „… wir haben doch gerade erst angefangen mit dir gemeinsam dieses oder jenes zu überlegen, zu planen, umzusetzen“. Oder, „Du hast uns doch gestern (oder letzte Woche) noch mit deinen Überlegungen weitergeholfen“, oder „wir hatten doch noch soviel zusammen vor“. Damit ist schon ein wichtiger Beitrag von Silke Helfrich umrissen, sie war nämlich nicht nur eine unermüdliche Commons-Forscherin, und auch nicht nur die Initiatorin und Mentorin der Commons-Ideen-Bewegung, sie war auch die Geburtshelferin und Begleiterin von unzähligen praktischen Commons-Projekten. Im Folgenden finden sich einige Blitzlichter aus meiner gemeinsamen Zeit mit Silke in ihren verschiedenen Tätigkeitsbereichen.
Commoning mit der Natur: Zur Teilhabe nichtmenschlicher Entitäten
Authors: Degens Philipp
Published: July 2022

Dieser Beitrag verbindet jüngere Debatten um die Commons und das Commoning mit dem Diskurs zu den Rechten der Natur. Er zeigt, wie den unterschiedlichen Zugängen zu Commons verschiedene Vorstellungen des Mensch-Natur-Verhältnisses zugrunde liegen. Im institutionenökonomischen Ansatz Elinor Ostroms stellt die Natur eine verfügbare Ressource dar; der Beziehungsmuster-Ansatz des Commoning, wie ihn Silke Helfrich maßgeblich geprägt hat, rekurriert auf eine soziale Praxis und verweist auf die Achtung nicht-menschlicher Entitäten. Konzepte der more-than-human Commons versuchen, das Nicht-menschliche systematisch zu integrieren. Abschließend wird gezeigt, dass eine Teilhabe nicht-menschlicher Entitäten auch rechtlich plausibel ist und auf zahlreiche Fälle verwiesen, in denen diese den Status von Rechtspersonen erhalten haben.
Zur Geometrie der Selbsthilfe zwischen Innenraum, liminalem Hybridraum und Öffnungsraum als »Commoning«
Authors: Schulz-Nieswandt Frank
Published: July 2022

Der Beitrag diskutiert den sozialen Wandel der gemeinschaftlichen mutualen Selbsthilfe als Metamorphose im Rahmen einer morphologischen Mehr-Ebenen-Analyse im Lichte einer sozialen Geometrie von Öffnung und Verschlossenheit im perspektivischen Spektrum zwischen signifikanten Verlust der Genossenschaftsartigkeit auf der Mikro-Ebene der gruppendynamischen Aktivitäten einerseits und begrenzter Öffnung zu Commons-Merkmalen auf der Makro-Ebene der Beratungs- und Informationsgabe der Selbsthilfeorganisationen infolge der digitalen Transformation auf der anderen Seite, erkennt aber auch Dynamiken auf einer hybriden Meso-Ebene der Sozialraumbildung in der Nachbarschaftsentwicklung. Die Makroebene verweist auf Probleme eines »halbierten Commoning«.
Biotechnology Applications in the Pectin Industry
Authors: Hamidi (Ataran) Asra
Published: July 2022

Pectin and/or pectin-like polysaccharide (PLP) is one of polysaccharides contained in the plants and algae cell walls, That’s known as a polymer branched from galacturonic acids. Pectins are widely used in industry to remove heavy elements, gel and stabilize materials. Furthermore, its antioxidant properties are considered medically and in healthy eating policies. “Pectin is composed of D-galacturonic acid linked by α-1, 4-glycosidic linkage and in most cases, pectins are classified according to their degree of esterification (DE), which represents the ratio of galacturonic acid groups esterified in the structure of the pectin polysaccharide. The high methyl (HM) ester is a polymer that is methyl esterified in more than 50% of its carboxylate monomers, and conversely, the low methyl (LM) ester is a pectin with a degree of esterification of less than 50%. The bioactive properties of pectin polymers are very wide. For example, pectins, with their antioxidant properties, are anti-cancer and anti-tumor, and help heal patients undergoing chemotherapy. Pectin polymers can help improve diabetes and lower cholesterol. In addition, pectin has received much attention in medicine due to the importance of hydrogels, nanofiber mats and nanoparticles.” The purpose of this chapter is to review and introduce possible applications of biotechnology in pectin industries. We review sections on agricultural production and the enzymatic extraction method, as well as enzymatic-ultrasonic extraction. Finally, some suggestions are made for factory effluents and solid waste.
Multiplexing, Transmission and De-Multiplexing of OAM Modes through Specialty Fibers
Authors: Rjeb Alaaeddine , Fathallah Habib , Machhout Mohsen
Published: July 2022

Space division multiplexing (SDM) over fibers has introduced a new paradigm in optical communication thanks to its capability to meet the ever-renewed demand of more transmission capacity and on large spectral efficiency. This ever-increasing demand is pushed by the nonstop increase of the number of connected users, devices, processes, and data (toward internet of everything IOE). One of the most promising variants of SDM, that has recently shown great potential, is based on harnessing orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes as data carriers. These OAMs are multiplexed, transmitted over special optical fibers (OAM-fibers) then de-multiplexed. In order to highlight the potential of SDM system incorporating OAM modes through fibers, in this chapter, we disassemble an SDM system and we examine its main key elements. The potential of OAM-SDM is discussed as a promising candidate for the next generation local/global communications networks. This chapter is intended to provide a comprehensive and deep understanding of SDM, which will push R&D community to derive future research directions in the field.
Cloning and Identification System of Apis mellifera Melittin cDNA in Escherichia coli
Authors: Jáuregui Diego , Blasco Miquel , Mafla Santiago
Published: July 2022

Honey bee venom, known as apitoxin, is composed of several peptides, the most important of which is melittin. This peptide is a current focus of research since it can improve the immune system and act against cancer due to its anti-mutagenic, anti-inflammatory, and even contraceptive effects. This makes it very desirable to obtain melittin-producing bacteria, and for this reason, this study has aimed at the cloning of Escherichia coli with the melittin gene from western bee. In order to do this, the total RNA of the western honey bee (Apis mellifera) has been extracted, and a reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RTPCR) has been carried out, at different annealing temperatures (68.0, 68.2, 68.4, 68.6, 68.8, and 69.0°C) to amplify the melittin cDNA. The annealing temperature of 68.4°C has allowed the highest production. Subsequently, this cDNA has been cloned into the pGEM-T vector, which has transformed E. coli JM109. This transformation has been corroborated by the blue/white test mediated by X-gal.

Global energy consumption has gradually increased as a result of population growth, industrialization, economic development, and rising living standards. Furthermore, as global warming and pollution worsen, the development of renewable energy sources is becoming more essential. Hydrogen is one of the most promising clean and sustainable energy carriers because it emits only water as a byproduct without carbon emission and has the highest energy efficiency. Hydrogen can be produced from a variety of raw resources, including water and biomass. Water electrolysis is one of many hydrogen production technologies that is highly recommended due to its eco-friendliness, high hydrogen generation rate, and high purity. However, in terms of long-term viability and environmental effect, Polymer Electrolyte Membrane water electrolysis has been identified as a potential approach for producing high-purity, high-efficiency hydrogen from renewable energy sources. Furthermore, the hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) produced are directly employed in fuel cells and other industrial uses. As a result, an attempt has been made in this work to investigate hydrogen synthesis and utilization in fuel cell vehicles. Low-temperature combustion technology has recently been applied in engine technology to reduce smoke and NOx emissions at the same time. The advantages and limitations of homogeneous charge compression ignition, partially premixed charge compression ignition, premixed charge compression ignition, and reactivity regulated compression ignition are described separately in low-temperature combustion strategy.
