Shedding new light on English loanwords in Croatian: computational-linguistic and corpus linguistic perspectives
Authors: Bogunović Irena
Published: September 2024

English loanwords in Croatian have been thoroughly investigated in terms of the degree of their adaptation, use across different styles and domains, and speakers’ attitudes. Most studies rely on selectively chosen examples or specialized corpora. To provide systematic data on a subgroup of English loanwords, those that occur in orthographically unadapted forms, new resources have been recently developed. They provide the data on the identification of unadapted English loanwords in Croatian, their meaning, native equivalents, and frequency. The aim of this paper is to bring together recent findings on unadapted English loanwords in Croatian, obtained from a set of studies in which computational-linguistic and corpus linguistic methods were used, with the purpose of providing a new insight into the phenomenon.
Comparison of ultrasound-guided continuous erector spinae plane block versus continuous paravertebral block for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing proximal femur surgeries
Authors: Mehrotra Aditya , Dayal Madhu , Bairagi Sushmita
Published: September 2024

Background

Proximal femur fracture surgeries have become increasingly prevalent, presenting unique challenges for postoperative pain management due to patient demographics and comorbidities. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) has emerged as a relatively safe alternative to paravertebral block (PVB). Our aim was to compare ultrasound-guided continuous ESPB with continuous PVB for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing proximal femur surgeries under spinal anesthesia.

Methods

A prospective randomized interventional study was conducted on 60 patients between 18 and 60 years of age undergoing proximal femur surgeries under spinal anesthesia with American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I and II between January 2019 and April 2020. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either ultrasound-guided continuous ESPB (Group E, n = 30) or ultrasound-guided continuous PVB (Group P, n = 30) using a computer-generated randomization table. The mean maximum visual analog scale (VAS) score, VAS score in the first 24 h, the time of rescue analgesia, and total requirement of rescue analgesia were assessed.

Results

The maximum VAS score within the first 24 h was numerically higher in Group P but statistically insignificant (p-value 0.279). VAS scores at 0, 1, 2, 6, and 18 h postoperatively were comparable in both groups. However, at the 24-h mark, the VAS score between Group E and Group P was statistically significant (p-value 0.018) but not clinically relevant. The mean paracetamol and tramadol requirements were comparable between the two groups.

Conclusion

Continuous ESPB is as effective as continuous PVB for postoperative analgesia in proximal femur surgeries. The enhanced safety profile of erector spinae block underscores its significance in postoperative pain management.
The diagnostic value of serum exosomal miRNA-587 combined with hypersensitive C-reactive protein as noninvasive biomarker in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer

Published: September 2024

Objectives

Lung cancer is a highly prevalent and life-threatening disease worldwide, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSLC) accounting for around 80 % of all cases. Exosomes contain important genetic information for humans that could be employed, especially for early screening of tumors. Accordingly, we aimed to use exosomal miRNA (ex-miRNA) in early NSCLC diagnosis.

Methods

The extracted ex-miRNAs were validated through transmission electron microscopy, particle size potentiometer, and western blot analyses. Microarray was used to verify ex-miRNAs, and 20 miRNAs were selected. Herein, we obtained 240 blood samples from NSCLC patients (101 in the early stage) and 234 from healthy donors. Our study deployed real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) for detecting significantly down-regulated miR-587 expression. In addition, the hypersensitive C-reactive protein (Hs-CRP) levels were measured in patient samples.

Results

The results of calculating the area under the curve (AUC) revealed that the diagnostic efficiency of miR-587 and Hs-CRP were 0.771 and 0.863, respectively. Meanwhile, the combined diagnostic efficiency of both increased to 0.901. In patients with early NSCLC, the diagnostic efficiency of miR-587, Hs-CRP, and combined AUC were 0.726, 0.873, and 0.899, respectively. This indicates that the accuracy of early NSCLC diagnosis is very high. Finally, we combined miR-587 and Hs-CRP with CEA and NSE for NSCLC (AUC=0.956) and early-stage patients (AUC=0.921).

Conclusions

In this study, miR-587 and Hs-CRP have significant diagnostic efficiency for NSCLC, especially the combination of CEA and NSE that could indicate early NSCLC diagnosis.
Global stability analysis of an extended SUC epidemic mathematical model
Authors: Chen Mengxin , Kwak Soobin , Ham Seokjun , Hwang Youngjin , Kim Junseok
Published: September 2024

In this study, we conduct a global stability analysis of an extended Susceptible-Unidentified infected-Confirmed (SUC) epidemic mathematical model. In the original SUC model, the entire population consists of individuals who are susceptible, those with unidentified infections, and those with confirmed infections, without accounting for births and deaths. In the proposed extended SUC model, we incorporate the dynamics of births and deaths into the original SUC model. We analyze the global stability of this extended SUC epidemic mathematical model and perform several computational experiments to validate the global stability analysis. Through this realistic extended SUC model, we aim to advance the current understanding of epidemiological modeling and provide valuable insights for guiding public health interventions and policies.

Hypoxia-induced autophagy inhibits myometrial proliferation in pregnant mice via the mTOR pathway in vitro
Authors: Wang Xingxing , Yu Huihui , Li Xuan , Tian Ruixian , Xu Chenyi , Li Tengteng , Fei Jiajia , Du Xue , Yin Zongzhi
Published: September 2024

In brief

During pregnancy and delivery, the myometrium was affected by hypoxia stress, which acts as a regulator of cell proliferation. The proliferation of uterine smooth muscle cells in pregnant mice was inhibited under hypoxia, which was related to the up-regulated autophagy through the mTOR pathway.

Hypoxia is closely associated with physiological and pathological conditions in the human body, and the myometrium is affected by hypoxic stress during pregnancy and delivery. Autophagy is a catabolic pathway involved in the regulation of apoptosis, proliferation, and migration of a variety of cells, which can be activated under hypoxia. However, the mechanism and function of autophagy in uterine smooth muscle cells remained unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in autophagy in pregnant uterine smooth muscle cells (pUSMCs) under hypoxia and the effect of autophagy on myometrial cellscell proliferation during pregnancy. In this study, primary uterine smooth muscle cells were isolated from mice in late pregnancy and cultured under normoxic and hypoxic conditions, respectively. Western blotting and immunofluorescence were used to detect the expression levels of autophagy-related proteins LC3B, P62, mTOR, and p-mTOR under different culture conditions. Cell proliferation was assessed by CCK-8 assay. In addition, 3-methyladenine (3-MA) was used to inhibit autophagy in hypoxia-treated pUSMCs, and MHY1485 was used to activate mTOR. Studies have confirmed that under hypoxic conditions, autophagy is enhanced and cell proliferative viability is reduced in pUSMCs. The autophagy inhibitor 3-MA restored cell proliferation inhibited by hypoxia. Furthermore, hypoxia in pUSMCs led to a downregulation of p-mTOR/mTOR levels. The mTOR activator MHY1485 inhibited autophagy by preventing the binding of autophagosomes to lysosomes and reversed the hypoxia-induced inhibition of cell proliferation. Collectively, our results indicate that hypoxia upregulates autophagy through the mTOR pathway in pUSMCs, thereby inhibiting cell proliferation during pregnancy.

Published: September 2024

A technology for direct laser writing of code sequences on modulation disks has been developed and implemented, ensuring high accuracy and reliability in the process of forming structural elements. The main advantages of applying direct laser writing compared to contact lithography for forming submicron-sized elements have been demonstrated. The proposed technology is characterized by high resolution and flexibility in configuring the parameters of the optical recording system, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in micro-optics. Direct optical writing is presented as a promising approach for enhancing the resolution of optical systems used in recording submicron-sized diffractive optical elements, as this technology enables the creation of complex optical structures. Additionally, a detailed classification of current approaches for further increasing the resolution of the optical recording system was conducted, including the application of a saturated absorber layer on the photosensitive surface, the use of a laser beam with intensity modeled by a Bessel function, and the synthesis of photosensitive materials with optimized exposure characteristics, ensuring high efficiency and accuracy in the process of direct laser writing.
THE HISTORIOGRAPHY OF UKRAINIAN PHILOSOPHY AND THE STUDIES IN HISTORIOGRAPHY OF PHILOSOPHY IN UKRAINE
Authors: YOSYPENKO Serhii
Published: September 2024

Drawing on recent publications on studies in historiography of philosophy in French-, English-, and German-speaking philosophy, the author clarifies the subject matter and tasks of studies in historiography of philosophy as a historico-philosophical approach, in particular, counting among such subjects the images of philosophy's past constructed by histories of philosophy, as well as the historiographical attitudes of historians of philosophy and the contexts and factors that determine these historiographical attitudes. The article analyses the conceptions and implementations of three projects of studies in historiography of philosophy that have taken place in Ukraine in recent decades: the project of “History of Historico-philosophical Science”, led by Yu. Kushakov in the 1980s and 2000s and dedicated to the study of historico-philosophical conceptions of German and Russian philosophers of the 19th and early 20th; S. Rudenko's study of post-Soviet methodological approaches to the history of Ukrainian philosophy (2012); and the Ukrainian part of the bilateral project “Philosophy in the system of national culture: comparative analysis of historico-philosophical studies in Belarus and Ukraine” (2011-2012), led by V. Yevarousky and S. Yosypenko. Based on the results of the latter project and on his more recent research, the author outlines the socio-political, general philosophical and institutional context in which the historiography of Ukrainian philosophy was formed and functioned during the 20th century; analyses the images of the history of Ukrainian philosophy created by D. Tschižewskij and V. Horskyi, which embody two extreme points in the development of the historiography of Ukrainian philosophy in the 20th century; and points out the changes in the general philosophical and institutional context of historico-philosophical research in independent Ukraine and the consequences of these changes for the further development of the historiography of Ukrainian philosophy.
LAUGHTER AS A SYMPTOM OF MODERNITY: ANALYSIS OF DEMARCATIONALITY AND INTERPASSIVITY OF LAUGHTER
Authors: SKRYPNYK Kateryna
Published: September 2024

The author of the article aims to explore the functions and tasks of laughter in the context of modern life, as well as the difficulties that people face today, including stress and the search for identity. She proves this by refuting two common positions that exist in the academic space: 1) the understanding of laughter as a means of destroying hierarchy or as a transgressive force with the destructive potential to expose social ills; 2) the contagious nature of laughter. In the author's opinion, these positions are not able to describe and explain the phenomena taking place in the modern world. Instead of interpreting laughter as a transgression of social roles, the author proposes to understand it as a means of demarcation, that is, as an act that affirms social roles rather than destroys them. According to the author, through the act of laughter, a person demonstrates not only an understanding of the essence of a joke, but also support for the values embedded in it. Using the Lacanian notion of paroisse and the analysis of designated places for laughter, the author argues that agreement with implicit values in a joke makes it possible to identify with a certain group of people, as common values are one of the factors that unite individuals. The joke and the reaction to it with laughter become a way of communication, where the subject identifies himself in the act of laughter. The author concludes that modern people assert their identity through laughter. Using the example of contemporary comedy genres, the author demonstrates the emergence of a new interpassive function of laughter, which is opposed to its contagiousness. The interpassive nature of laughter has emerged due to the need of a modern person to replace their emotions. It can be seen as a symptom of the modern state of the subject, who is under constant stress. Due to the overloaded life, modern subject is forced to push emotions to the background. The culture of consumption and pleasure has become so widespread and accessible that the individual does not refuse certain ways of enjoyment, but transfers this function to other objects. The modern subject no longer has to take on the exhausting role of a laughing person, and thanks to the interpersonal nature of laughter, laughs and enjoys through the Other. The author concludes that such a transfer allows the modern person to feel that the action of laughter has been performed.
RECEPTION OF LIMINAL EXPERIENCE
Authors: LUTSENKO Daria
Published: September 2024

This article explores theoretical aspects of liminality, tracing the evolution of its concept, from its role in ancient ritual structures to its interpretation in conflict theory. In this context, liminality is understood as a transformative experience characterized by high intensity that significantly affects the subject experiencing it. This subject can be both individual and collective, reflecting the wide range of applications of liminality experiences in both personal and public spheres. The phenomenological tradition, especially in its recent developments, has positioned itself as a philosophy of experience, providing a rich and fruitful methodology for studying the conditions that make experience possible. By exploring the basic premises of experience, or more precisely, of intense experience, the discussion inevitably leads to the concept of corporeality. The body, as a site of experience, becomes a key factor in understanding how intense experiences are mediated and processed. In addition, this article explores the relationship between different types of intense experiences and the ways in which individuals or communities support and channel them. These experiences are transformative in nature and can lead to significant changes in individuals or collectives, highlighting the importance of understanding the mechanisms behind this liminality state. The multifaceted nature of liminality, including both individual and social transformations, highlights its relevance not only in philosophical discourse but also in practical fields such as psychology, sociology, and anthropology. Drawing on this theoretical framework, this article seeks to deepen our understanding of liminality as a powerful force that shapes human experience, gaining insights into its transformative potential and the role of the body in mediating such experiences. This research highlights the importance of liminality as a dynamic process that shifts the boundaries of identity at both the individual and collective levels. By understanding the mechanisms of this transformative state, we can gain a deeper understanding of how people and societies adapt, grow, and reinvent themselves in moments of dramatic change.

Published: September 2024

This study aims to assess the current condition of the nature reserve fund within Kirovohrad oblast considering the newly created administrative raions, with due regard for the regional development prospects enshrined in laws, regulations, and territorial planning documents. Open data from the nature reserve fund cadastre reveals that the development of the nature reserve fund in Kirovohrad oblast over the past 10 years has shown positive and sustainable progress in increasing the number of objects and their areas. However, the low annual growth rate of nature reserve areas has not yet allowed for the achievement of the target indicators planned for 2020 (7.1% of the oblast conservation area). Under current conditions, it is essential to accurately interpret the obtained indicators for assessing the nature reserve fund condition, with respect to regional development goals and objectives. Therefore, scales for verbal characteristics of assessment indicators have been developed. The results of the structural analysis and spatial arrangement assessment of the nature reserve fund within Kirovohrad oblast show the following characteristic features and shortcomings: territory fragmentation, low level of conservation, non-uniform territorial representation of numerous nature reserve ob- jects in the oblast (mostly small and isolated), and low to medium verbal characteristics of the assessment indicators. The comparative analysis of the nature reserve fund structure in terms of administrative and territorial regions reveals its regional features. Oleksandriya raion is characterized by a high level of conservation, with the prevailing number of objects in Kropyvnytskyi raion. In contrast, the Golovanivka raion has the worst indicators, and the Novoukrainka raion shows a very low level of conservation. The article considers the prospects for the nature reserve fund development in light of the regional development goals of Kirovohrad oblast, with specific proposals for achieving the target indicators. These include: increasing the number of nature reserve fund objects by establishing new ones in areas promising for conservation. The Emerald Network, water and wetlands, as well as forested lands, are considered the closest reserve for new nature reserve objects within the oblast.

Published: September 2024

In connection with the growth of Baku city and its adjacent regions located in the Absheron Peninsula, this territory is the most densely populated part of our republic. The waste from industrial enterprises and oil and gas fields, a significant part of which is also located within the Peninsula, has a negative influence on the ecological situation of the studied area. This article provides an overview of the hydrogeological conditions of various areas of the object under study and identifies changes in the level of groundwater in these areas while establishing the reasons for its rise. Physical and chemical analyses of water samples taken from drilled wells and dug wells throughout the region were carried out. The reasons for the increase in the level of underground water were established, which lead to flooding, swamping, and recurrent salinization of the soil in the Absheron Peninsula. Measures and recommendations were developed to restore the ecological balance of the study area. In addition, groundwater, phreatimetric data, and water reservoir strikes in cities, villages, and settlements located on the peninsula were studied. The physico-chemical composition of underground waters and their mineralization levels were studied in laboratory conditions. The groundwater levels in drilled and dug wells across the peninsula were established and compared with data from historical records and literature. The studies conducted allowed for the evaluation of the suitability of groundwater for various national and economic uses. It has been established that, simultaneously with natural factors, anthropogenic factors have had a significant influence on the rise in the level of groundwater, including the absence of central sewage and drainage systems, the discharge of water from industrial enterprises, and household water, among others. To eliminate the environmental emergency, it is recommended to carry out priority temporary measures in some areas of the Absheron Peninsula at the initial stage.
Geodynamic development of structures of the North Absheron uplift zone within the South Caspian megadepression and oil-gas-bearing
Authors: Rzayeva Sevinj M. , Abdullayeva Valida G. , Tagiyev Allahverdi Sh.
Published: September 2024

The article discusses the geodynamic development of the structures of the North Absheron uplift zone. The Pirallahi-Kelkor trough is a polyfocal sub-basin due to the fact that in its sedimentary section, at least the Jurassic, Lower Cretaceous, Lower Pliocene and Quaternary deposits, are characterized by favorable conditions for the accumulation and burial of organic matter. It follows from this that, in accordance with its paleogeotemperature regime, several main stages of hydrocarbon migration could have taken place here. For identifying the formation and further structural-tectonic development , the Absheron bank, the Arzu, Chilov, Palchig Pilpilasi, Chirag and Garabag uplifts have been studied. To solve this issue, paleoprofiles for the end of the Jurassic, Early Cretaceous, Miocene and Pliocene based on the seismic geological profile across the strike of the Pirallahi-Kelkor trough have been compiled. As a result of these studies we established that the uplifts are of syndepositional origin, formed simultaneously with the sedimentation process. The sedimentation and geotemperature regime of the subbasin play a significant role . İt was found that by the end of the Pliocene, the main oil formation zone (MOFZ) contained sediments from the second half of the Lower Cretaceous to the second half of the Lower Pliocene, and both Lower Cretaceous and Lower Pliocene deposits took part in the main stage of hydrocarbon migration. Finally, the MOFZ currently contains sediments from the tops of the Lower Cretaceous to the bottoms of the Upper Pliocene. As can be seen, the main stage of migration covered both Lower Cretaceous and Lower Pliocene deposits. İn addition, we concluded that the natural reservoirs of local uplifts that formed within the Absheron archipelago, regardless of the time of their formation, could be saturated with hydrocarbons depending on the level of their development, position in the structural-tec- tonic plan and reservoir characteristics of the strata. Due to the fact that the uplifts were formed no later than the Miocene, it was even considered that they began to appear by the end of the earlier Miocene, and that they could have captured hydrocarbons of the Lower and Later Cretaceous period.

Published: September 2024

Fused filament manufacturing (FFF), also known as 3D printing, is one of the most commonly used additive manufacturing techniques for creating high-quality materials. This process demonstrates the intricacies and challenges involved in choosing appropriate manufacturing parameters to achieve the desired outcomes. Among these critical parameters is the nozzle temperature, which can be adjusted to enhance the mechanical properties of the 3D-printed Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) parts. The main objective of this study is to investigate the influence of the printing temperature on the mechanical properties and failure characteristics of 3D printed polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) parts during impact testing. To do this, a series of simple and repeated impact tests were carried out on printed PPS samples in the nozzle temperature range (320–350 °C). CHARPY tests were carried out on the samples manufactured with different sequences for the optimal orientation of the filaments. Furthermore, the impact energy absorption capacity and the induced damage as a function of nozzle temperature were evaluated. CHARPY test results showed that samples with stacking sequence (0/0) had the best impact resistance and specific absorbed energy (SEA). This sequence, printed horizontally, was used to test different print temperatures in single and repeated impact tests. Furthermore, the results indicated that samples printed with a nozzle temperature of 340 °C exhibited higher CHARPY impact resistance and specific absorbed energy (SEA), with a percentage difference of 45.57%, 41.95% and 44.21% compared to samples printed with nozzle temperatures of 320 °C, 330 °C and 350 °C respectively. For repeated impact tests, the results also show that samples printed with a nozzle temperature of 340 °C have a higher initial energy absorption rate and a greater number of impacts before complete failure of the sample. This result proves also that the changing of nozzle temperature does not have a significant effect on the induced damage after CHARPY and repeated impact.

Case method in the aspect of forming the values of future lawyers
Authors: Soshenko Svitlana , Prylypko Viktoriia
Published: September 2024

In the context of the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian war, the Ukrainian education sector is facing new challenges, including, in particular, the revision of training for specialists in strategic areas, including lawyers. A developed nationally conscious civil society with strong democratic beliefs and rejection of corruption, which puts the interests of the state at the forefront, is the ideal that today's generation of higher education students should embody. With this in mind, educational practices should be revised, primarily in terms of forming a system of values, as well as maximizing the actualization of learning. We consider the case method to be one of the effective tools that meets these important tasks. The purpose of the study is to comprehend the experience of using the case method with a view to forming the values of future lawyers and is realized through such tasks as studying the educational practices of using the case method, considering examples of the use of the case method in teaching future lawyers, and finding out the impact of the case method on the formation of the values of respect for the law and the inadmissibility of corruption in future lawyers. The examples of case studies, discussed in the article, are devoted to a specific topic – exposing cases of corruption in the higher education system of Ukraine. The author formulates the requirements for the content of cases and the sequence of work with them, which provides for a gradual increase in the degree of independence of students. It is proved that the case method contributes to the formation of such important values for future lawyers as respect for the law and the inadmissibility of corruption. The development of a mature civil society in post-war Ukraine, to which today's students will be involved, depends on the formation of these values. Prospects for further research are seen in the study of the use of the case method to analyze situations related to academic dishonesty
Grazia Deledda fuori dal canone e dalla storiografia letteraria italiana. Alcune riflessioni sulla sua modernità e sulle ragioni di un’esclusione
Authors:   Università di Sassari, Italia, Manca Dino
Published: September 2024

In this contribution, I investigate the reasons why many critics have found it difficult to understand the work of Grazia Deledda, a modern writer between two languages and two cultures: Sardinian and Italian. My purpose is to reconsider Deledda, using new critical tools forged by the 20th-century linguistic, aesthetic, and anthropological revolution. Today, it no longer makes sense to speak of Italian literature or Sardinian literature, but of the literary communication of Italians or Sardinians, that is, of polycentric literary systems whose identity has been historically and geographically established through the contribution of multiple languages and multiple cultures.
Le “pagine sempre mediocri” di un premio Nobel per la letteratura. Excursus nella critica deleddiana del suo tempo
Authors:   Sorbonne Université, Francia, Bordry Marguerite
Published: September 2024

The reception of the work of Grazia Deledda (1871–1936) is a conspicuous paradox. Although she was a successful author and a Nobel Prize winner (1926), she is little known and little studied, especially when compared with the other Nobel laureates, in particular male ones. My aim is to investigate the origins of Deledda’s ‘misfortune’ by exploring the common issues critics raised with respect to Deledda’s books in her day. One of those was, prominently, Deledda’s alleged imperfect style, a recurring theme in criticism throughout her career. Also, the Sardinian dimension of her works left no critic indifferent and led to her writing often being reduced to ‘regional’ or ‘folkloric.’ Many critics insisted that Deledda’s Sardinia, little known on the ‘Continent’ at the time, enjoyed considerable success precisely because of its ‘exotic’ quality. Finally, Deledda’s status as a woman writer was a salient factor in the reception of her work. Indeed, critics tended to adopt a condescending, or even sexist, tone, whether their assessment of Deledda’s work was favourable or detractive, which was a real commonplace in the reception of women authors back then. My aim is to investigate the role of these issues in the exclusion from the canon of a writer who has remained unique in Italian literature to this day.
Considerazioni sulla traduzione polacca delle Novelle di Arrigo Boito
Authors:   Università degli Studi di Torino, Italia, Prola Dario
Published: September 2024

The paper discusses some translation problems in the Polish version of four fantasy short stories by Italian writer and composer Arrigo Boito: ‘Iberia’ (1868), ‘L’alfier nero’ (1868), ‘Il pugno chiuso’ (1870), and ‘Il trapezio’ (1873–1874). The book with their translations by Aleksandra Cypko and Klaudia Sarafin was published by the Cracow-based publishing house Austeria in 2021. The challenges faced in translation work were manifold, starting with the reproduction of Boito’s stylistic and poetic peculiarities in contemporary Polish. In this paper, I first survey the salient features of Boito’s literary Italian and style to focus subsequently on the Polish translators’ solutions for rendering loanwords and technical words and to examine the functions of the notes and the paratextual apparatus of the translations. In the final part of the paper, I address the issue of translating the antinomies underlying Boito’s writing. In this sense, his four short stories represent an ideal expression of the dualistic conception of Scapigliatura, an important artistic movement in which the young Boito was involved. To find metaphors and similes through which to adequately reproduce this dominant feature of Boito’s writing was one of the most difficult challenges for the Polish translators.
Mostri musulmani. La deumanizzazione dell’antagonista miscredente nella storia di Buovo d’Antona dalla tradizione anglonormanna al Bovo-Bukh di Elia Levita
Authors:   Uniwersytet Wrocławski, Polonia, Artico Davide
Published: September 2024

The story of Beuve of Hampton circulated throughout the Late Middle Ages and was printed in a number of incunables issued in Venice and Bologna in the 1480s. One of those inspired Elia Levita to compose his own Old Yiddish version known as the Bovo-Bukh. Though written in Padua in 1507, Levita’s poem was printed in Württemberg in 1541. The Bovo-Bukh became so popular that it continued to be widely read and adapted in several Ashkenazi centres in Europe until the late 18th c entury. T he original story goes b ack to Anglo-Norman Boeuve de Haumtone, whose earliest manuscripts are dated to the end of the 13th century. Its plot features a creature called Escopart. It is a giant freak in the service of the Saracens. Yet, once baptised, it turns into a magical Auxiliary. In the early 15th century, Andrea da Barberino adapted the story in prose as Book IV of his largely fictional chronicle of The Royal House of France. In this text, the unbeliever appears as a werehound named Pulicane, but its narrative function is quite similar to Escopart’s. With its name changed into Pellucano, the character is depicted in the Venetian incunables too. In Levita’s version, it becomes Pelukan. The purpose of this paper is to present the ideological changes in the depiction of the monstrous unbeliever, both in historical terms (the timespan of more than two centuries) and with reference to different axiologies. The strong prejudice of the Anglo-Norman tradition, in which the low-born and the unbelievers were depicted as hell spawn never to be trusted, was replaced by a common-sense approach in the later versions of the story. Finally, in Levita’s poem, the confessional background becomes unimportant in determining personal allegiances.

RESUMO Os aços maraging são aços especiais de ultra-alta resistência e alta tenacidade, mas, apesar de suas propriedades notáveis, suas aplicações ainda são limitadas devido ao seu alto custo de produção. O objetivo deste trabalho consiste em avaliar a relação entre a formação de precipitados e o teor de austenita revertida, correlacionando com a dureza e as alterações nas propriedades mecânicas relativas à tração do aço maraging 300 sob diferentes condições de tratamentos térmicos, para servir como parâmetro de análise no seu emprego em blindagens balísticas. Amostras de aço maraging 300 foram tratadas em 29 diferentes condições de envelhecimento e o comportamento de endurecimento por precipitação foi analisado empregando diferentes técnicas, como: ferritoscopia, ensaio de dureza nas situações como recebido e envelhecido, e ensaio de tração nas temperaturas de 440, 480 e 570 °C, a fim de verificar a influência da fase austenítica nas propriedades mecânicas. A influência do superenvelhecimento foi observada na amostra de 570 °C, resultando numa diminuição de aproximadamente 31% na resistência mecânica e um aumento em torno de 40% na ductilidade, em comparação com a amostra envelhecida a 440 °C, indicando uma melhora na tenacidade do material.

Objetivo: identificar e comparar a prática dos profissionais de Enfermagem quanto à inserção de dispositivos de acesso vascular periféricos, de acordo com a categoria profissional. Método: estudo seccional descritivo realizado no período entre julho de 2021 e maio de 2022 com 2.584 profissionais de Enfermagem, por meio de questionário validado por três juízes com expertise em terapia intravenosa, contendo variáveis relacionadas à cateterização e ao dispositivo de acesso vascular. Foi realizada análise descritiva e inferencial. Resultados: a maioria dos profissionais não prepara o paciente nem realiza alguns cuidados essenciais antes da tentativa de cateterização intravenosa periférica. Quanto ao local preferencial de cateterização, destacam-se as mãos, o braço e o antebraço. Não há controle do tempo de garroteamento e o paciente é puncionado mais de três vezes. Os materiais dos dispositivos mais utilizados são poliuretano e Teflon ® , é adotado mais de um critério para a seleção do dispositivo, e a fita adesiva do tipo Micropore ® foi a cobertura mais citada pelos profissionais de Enfermagem. A identificação da cateterização não foi adequada. Conclusão: técnicos e auxiliares de enfermagem são os profissionais que menos atendem ao que está preconizado nas diretrizes reconhecidas. A prática dos enfermeiros também apresenta desvios em relação às evidências científicas.

Objetivo: describir las curvas epidémicas y analizar el perfil epidemiológico de los pacientes hospitalizados por COVID-19 en un municipio de triple frontera. Método: descriptivo-cuantitativo. La población se configuró de casos de COVID-19 que requirieron hospitalización, analizando variables como: edad, sexo, raza/color, municipio de residencia, ocupación, gestante, paciente institucionalizado y evolución. Se utilizó el análisis estadístico descriptivo y las pruebas de análisis de varianza y chi-cuadrado. Resultados: se identificaron cuatro curvas epidémicas en el período estudiado. Entre los casos hospitalizados, predominó el sexo masculino (55%). La cura fue el desenlace más frecuente en las curvas 1, 2 y 4, aunque sin diferencia estadística (p = 0,2916). La curva 3 presentó una mayor frecuencia de fallecimientos (41,70%) en relación a la cura (38,77%). El promedio de edad fue significativamente diferente entre las curvas, siendo que la curva 4 presentó el menor promedio de edad. Conclusión: se concluyó que las curvas epidémicas fueron influenciadas por diferentes situaciones; población no vacunada, flexibilización de las medidas restrictivas, reapertura de la frontera Brasil-Paraguay, interrupción de las acciones de control, aglomeración de personas y circulación de nuevas variantes. Por medio del perfil epidemiológico de los enfermos hospitalizados, se concluyó que ser del sexo masculino, de raza/color pardo, en el rango de edad de 61 a 85 años, estar privado de libertad se asociaron con la hospitalización y ocurrencia de fallecimiento.

Objective: to conduct the cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric validation of the Family Integration Experience Scale: Chronic Illness in Brazilian Portuguese. Method: a methodological study divided into two stages. In the first stage, the Family Integration Experience Scale: Chronic Illness was cross-culturally adapted for Brazilian culture, when the scale was subjected to translations, back-translations, and a committee of judges - to verify the semantic, linguistic, and contextual equivalence between the original and translated items. The second step was to validate the scale in a sample of families of children and adolescents with chronic illnesses. The participants were 230 families of children with chronic illnesses attending the outpatient clinic of a tertiary public hospital with teaching and research characteristics. Results: internal consistency was tested using Cronbach’s alpha (0.81) and McDonald’s omega (0.81). Confirmatory factor analysis was also tested, and the model’s fit was acceptable for validation standards. Conclusion: the version of the Family Integration Experience Scale: Chronic Illness showed evidence of validation and can be considered a valid and reliable instrument in Brazilian culture. The Brazilian Portuguese version of the Family Integration Experience Scale: Chronic Illness can be used to measure the experience of family integration in chronic illness.

Published: September 2024

Objectives: this study aims to explore neonatal nurses’ experiences of facilitating early bonding between mothers and premature babies Method: a descriptive qualitative approach was adopted, using focus group discussions with 13 participants from four referral hospitals in a major city in a developing country. This was followed by in-depth interviews with three participants Results: three main themes emerged, highlighting the barriers and facilitators to early bonding between mothers and preterm infants. The study also explored care practices aimed at facilitating early bonding within the social environment of preterm infants, involving mothers, families, nurses and hospitals. Conclusions: the barriers and facilitators identified inform the development of intervention strategies for neonatal nurses to promote early bonding. Optimal early bonding requires enhanced nurse management skills, adequate hospital infrastructure and involvement of the patient’s family. These findings contribute to the advancement of health and nursing knowledge.
