Abstract Diese Bände stellen einen Meilenstein in der Literaturgeschichte des Alt- und Frühmittelhochdeutschen dar. Im Alleingang über ein Vierteljahrhundert lang hat Hellgardt in diesen zwei gewichtigen Bänden über einhundert Prosa-Texte (manche
in Auswahl) ediert, neu übersetzt und erläutert. Zum Teil sind damit die bekannten, ja über einhundert Jahre alten Standardsammlungen nun überholt, was die frühdeutschen Prosawerke anbelangt: Die kleineren althochdeutschen Sprachdenkmäler. Hg. Elias von
Steinmeyer. Berlin 1916. 2.Aufl. Berlin und/Zürich 1963; Denkmäler deutscher Poesie und Prosa aus dem VIII.–XII. Jahrhundert. Hrsg. Karl Müllenhoff und Wilhelm Scherer. 2 Bde. 3. Ausgabe, Berlin 1892. 4. Ausgabe Hrsg. Elias Steinmeyer. Berlin und Zürich 1964;
Denkmäler deutscher Prosa des 11. und 12. Jahrhunderts. Hrsg. Friedrich Wilhelm. München 1914. Nachdruck München 1964. Insgesamt wurde die Versdichtung (Stabreimgedichte bzw. -lieder, Ludwigslied, Kicila-Vers, Petruslied, Otfrid) in der Regel in der Vergangenheit häufiger
Gegenstand der Forschungsinteressen. Als singuläres Denkmal steht die Kölner Inschrift, die Stab- und Endreim aufweist, an erster Stelle dieser Sammlung. Über die philologische Behandlung althochdeutscher Texte gibt Hellgardt ausführlich in seiner lesenswerten Einleitung
(Band 1) Auskunft. Was die früheren Anthologien aber nicht bieten: Hellgardt bietet für jeden Text (und in manchen Fällen auch für die jeweilige lateinische Quelle) eine neue neuhochdeutsche Übersetzung, nach Bedarf mit Erklärung und Kommentar. Zu Stücken
aus der “Millstätter Interlinearversion zum Psalter” hat Hellgardt Martin Bubers meisterhafte Übersetzung herangezogen. Mit all diesen Hilfestellungen ist diese Textsammlung nicht nur für die Forschung von Interesse, sondern auch und insbesondere in der Lehre bestens
einsetzbar.
Zeitenwende. Notker der Deutsche (†1022). Sommerausstellung Stiftsbibliothek St. Gallen 8. März bis 6. November 2022, ed. Andreas Nievergelt. Basel: Schwabe Verlag and St. Gallen: Verlag am Klosterhof, 2022, 109 pp., 31 colored images.
Authors: Oberlin Adam
Published: August 2023

Abstract A brief edited volume produced for the summer exhibit of the Stiftsbibliothek St. Gall, Zeitenwende provides an introduction, two chapters Notker’s life and works, seven chapters on various topics (the cloister school, the septem artes liberales
in Notker’s works, Old High German works on the former, Boethius’ Consolation of Philosophy and Notker’s reception of the text, his Aristotelian writings, lost works, and his psalter and psalm commentaries), and a postscript on Notker’s elevation of the German
lan­guage, followed by endnotes and a manuscript catalogue. The exhibit of manuscripts commemorates the millennium anniversary of Notker’s death and seeks to contextualize his contributions to local, areal (the German-speaking lands), and European thought and learning at the nexus
of the vernacular and Latin, particularly from the perspectives of translation, didacticism, and commentary. Thirty-one unnumbered, full-color figures depict manuscript leaves throughout the text, most of which are printed clearly, but one, on p. 21, is illegibly blurry.
Rebecca Thomas, History and Identity in Early Medieval Wales. Cambridge: D. S. Brewer, 2022, xii, 202 pp.
Authors: Breeze Andrew
Published: August 2023

Abstract How the Welsh regarded their past is an illuminating subject, as with any nation; and it is here given fresh and stimulating treatment for the pre-Norman period. This study is particularly welcome because the few historical sources (Gildas, Historia Brittonum,
Annales Cambriae, Asser, Armes Prydein) for early Wales are ringed by linguistic and chronological chevaux de frise. They are a wonderful way to make a historian look foolish. Fortunately, Rebecca Thomas removes some of these obstacles by her citation of recent research.
Carine van Rhijn, Leading the Way to Heaven: Pastoral Care and Salvation in the Carolingian Period. London and New York: Routledge, 2022, xii, 274 pp.
Authors: Bruce Scott G.
Published: August 2023

Abstract Early medieval manuscripts give up their secrets in this excellent monograph by Carine van Rhijn, who studies the books that enabled parish priests to perform their duties in the Carolingian countryside. Recognizing that the lineaments of the pastoral project outlined
in royal normative texts issued by Charlemagne and his advisors were expressive of “ideals and intentions” (5), she argues convincingly that the practical challenges of implementing this project of expanding and deepening the knowledge that Christians required to assure their salvation
fell increasingly to local priests in the Carolingian period. By the eighth century, a fundamental reorganization of the secular clergy resulted in priests being assigned to specific churches, where they lived, preached, and administered the sacraments in small communities for the rest of
their lives.

pp.
Authors: Jakob Joachim
Published: August 2023

Abstract: This volume is part of “a major research project of publishing a comprehensive corpus of the Polemical Treatises of Bar alībī” (X) which “have only been published in a partial and piecemeal fashion” and “have never been
translated as an entirety nor have they received systematic comment” (XI), as the editors state in their preface. Dionysius bar alībī (d. 1171) was a scholar and prolific writer of the period of the so-called Syriac Renaissance (11th–13th centuries). He first became
the Syriac Orthodox bishop of Marash and later, in 1167, the metropolitan of Amid (Diyarbakır in Turkey). The vol­ume offers an edition and English translation of Bar alībī’s Treatise Against the Jews (37–141), with a few short introductory chapters
(1–36). The treatise was prob­ably composed between 1165 and 1168 C.E. (12). It is part of a series of polemical treatises authored by Bar alībī that are directed also against Muslims (ed. and trans. Joseph P. Amar, Dionysius Bar alībī: A Response to the
Arabs. CSCO 614–15. Louvain: Éditions Peeters, 2005), differing Christian traditions, and idolaters.

NEW DATA ON THE ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE MIDDLE TRANSURALS (based on the materials of the site Koksharovo I)
Authors:   Russian State Professionally Pedagogical University (Nizhny Tagil branch), Serikov Yu.B.
Published: August 2023

The article presents previously unknown materials of the Stone and Bronze Ages from the site of Koksharovo I, which was excavated by V.F. Starkov in 1966 and 1968.The site contains mixed complexes of all epochs from the Mesolithic to the Early Iron Age.The Mesolithic, Neolithic and Early Iron epochs are represented by an insignificant admixture, which makes up about 5% of the entire complex.The remaining materials belong to the Eneolithic (about 80%) and the Late Bronze Age (about 15%).The analysis of stone products was carried out using statistical-typological, traceological and mineralogical methods.The uniqueness of the site is given by two “burials” investigated by V.F. Starkov, performed according to a previously unknown rite; but the current level of knowledge suggests that these “burial structures” are not burials, but a kind of cult complexes. The inhabitants of the site used a variety of mineral raw materials (over 20 names) obtained from local sources.
FORMATION OF A SYSTEM OF REVOLUTIONARY TRIBUNALS IN THE MIDDLE VOLGA REGION IN 1917 – 1923

Published: August 2023

The article is devoted to the first measures of the Bolsheviks government aimed to combat crime and ensure the defense of the proletarian regime, the formation of the extraordinary judicial bodies, i.e., revolutionary tribunals, which marked the beginning of the establishment of the Soviet legal system. The relevance of the article is due to the need for an objective analysis of the historical experience of creating the system of revolutionary tribunals, and to the presence of "blank spots" in the historiography of the formation of the system of extraordinary bodies of the Middle Volga region during the Civil War. Comprehensive analysis of the formation of revolutionary tribunals on the territory of the Middle Volga region in 1917 – 1923 is based on the previously unknown materials from the State Archive of the Ulyanovsk region, the State Archive of Contemporary history of the Ulyanovsk region, the State Archive of the Saratov region, the State Archive of the Penza region and the Central State Archive of the Samara region. The authors examine the formation and legal status of extraordinary judicial bodies, as well as their permanent reorganization, and come to the conclusion that the process of formation of the system of revolutionary tribunals was implemented by local party structures. Under the conditions of socio-economic and political crisis, the revolutionary tribunals quickly turned into effective judicial bodies and functioned until the end of the Civil War, when they were reorganized into People's courts.

Creating English Songs with Familiar Music for EFL Classrooms in Japanese Elementary Schools
Authors:   Toyo University, Shimada Miori
Published: August 2023

This paper introduces a compilation of simple and easy English songs designed for children learning English as a Foreign Language (EFL). While belonging to various language schools, the author encountered numerous songs that captured children’s interest in English vocabulary and phrases. While some of these songs had original melodies, many were adaptations of traditional songs in Japan, USA, and UK. Consequently, the author undertook the task of developing English songs using familiar tunes and shared them with a group of Japanese and Filipino English teachers who taught Japanese children. The article presents the feedback received from these teachers regarding the preference for utilizing traditional tunes and the focus of these songs. Additionally, the list of the tunes used for Wee Sing CD series that have been very popular among children throughout Japan and North America will be presented for further discussion.
Mouth and facial informativeness norms for 2276 English words
Authors: Krason Anna , Zhang Ye , Man Hillarie , Vigliocco Gabriella
Published: August 2023

Mouth and facial movements are part and parcel of face-to-face communication. The primary way of assessing their role in speech perception has been by manipulating their presence (e.g., by blurring the area of a speaker’s lips) or by looking at how informative different mouth patterns are for the corresponding phonemes (or visemes; e.g., /b/ is visually more salient than /g/). However, moving beyond informativeness of single phonemes is challenging due to coarticulation and language variations (to name just a few factors). Here, we present mouth and facial informativeness (MaFI) for words, i.e., how visually informative words are based on their corresponding mouth and facial movements. MaFI was quantified for 2276 English words, varying in length, frequency, and age of acquisition, using phonological distance between a word and participants’ speechreading guesses. The results showed that MaFI norms capture well the dynamic nature of mouth and facial movements per word, with words containing phonemes with roundness and frontness features, as well as visemes characterized by lower lip tuck, lip rounding, and lip closure being visually more informative. We also showed that the more of these features there are in a word, the more informative it is based on mouth and facial movements. Finally, we demonstrated that the MaFI norms generalize across different variants of English language. The norms are freely accessible via Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/mna8j/) and can benefit any language researcher using audiovisual stimuli (e.g., to control for the effect of speech-linked mouth and facial movements).
N-Heterocyclic carbene-based gold etchants
Authors: Chevalier Robert B , Pantano Justin , Kiesewetter Matthew K , Dwyer Jason R
Published: August 2023

N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are an emerging alternative to thiols for the formation of stable self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold. We examined several different species that have been used to produce NHC-based monolayers on gold, namely 1,3-diisopropyl-5-nitrobenzimidazolium iodide, 1,3-diisopropyl-5-nitrobenzimidazolium hydrogen carbonate, bis(1,3-diisopropyl-5-nitrobenzimidazolium)gold(I) iodide, and 1,3-diisopropyl-5-nitrobenzimidazole-2-ylidene. Contrary to expectation, solutions containing the first two species in tetrahydrofuran and dichloromethane caused visible loss of gold from thin-film-coated glass slides. The use of toluene solutions of all species resulted in no apparent dissolution of gold. We present scanning electron micrographs and elemental imaging analyses by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy to examine the effect of solutions of each species on the gold film. This work highlights the risk of unwanted etching during some routes to NHC-based surface functionalization but also the potential for deliberate etching, with the outcome determined by choice of chemically synthesized organic species and solvent.

Graduate School Curriculum Inquiry from The Lens of the Graduates: A Single Intrinsic Case Study
Authors: Chavez Judith C. , Pit Noel N. , Napiere Miguela B.
Published: August 2023

The evaluation of the curriculum is a critical aspect of curriculum development as it allows the school administration to assess whether the curriculum has successfully achieved its objectives. This study aimed to identify the strengths and areas for improvement in a graduate school curriculum. To conduct this qualitative case study, the researchers utilized purposeful sampling, selecting graduate students in the thesis writing stage and recent graduates from various courses offered in the graduate school. A total of 10 participants willingly participated in the focus group discussion, while four took part in the exit interview. The researchers employed focus group discussions and exit interviews as data collection tools, focusing on the participants’ experiences with the graduate school curriculum. The findings revealed three main themes: Advancing professional capability, empowering experiences, and overcoming research hurdles. These themes indicated that the Graduate School Curriculum had contributed to the development of the participants' research skills in their respective disciplines, ultimately empowering them to develop leadership skills in the workplace. This was largely facilitated by the professors' effective facilitation of the learning processes. While this study provides valuable insights into the strengths of the graduate school curriculum, the study points to the need to intensify its scaffolds on the area of research and of reflecting further on the sequence of curricular offerings tailored to fit the context of graduate students in an online environment. A further empirical investigation using quantitative methods is endorsed to obtain more robust information on the curriculum's best features and to enhance its overall effectiveness.
An Appraisal of Hume’s Theory of Causation: Is Hume a Causal Realist?
Authors: Samitharathana Wadigala
Published: August 2023

Hume’s construal of causation historically lays out a philosophical puzzle towards realism and anti-realism; in fact, this scholarship deliberately offers a bit of thoughts for causal realism - in virtue of the Old Hume and New Hume debate, as well as its contextual language. Nevertheless, this dialectic is significantly underestimated by plenty of counterexamples such as empiricism, liberty and necessity, the immateriality of the soul, and copy principle. In response to these brainstorming facets, this research article intends to determine that Hume is a causal anti-realist; I have, in turn, explored three supporting arguments to defend the compelling idea: conventional manifestation of causality - Hume’s advocacy of necessary connection - the idea of liberty and necessity. However, this critical study is restricted to examine other substantial reflections on those which are included in the compositions of Treatise and Enquiry.

Kekuatan Hukum Perjanjian Pengikatan Jual Beli (PPJB) Lunas yang Belum Mendapatkan Pemecahan Sertipikat dari Developer yang Dipailitkan
Authors: Dian Apriandini  , Amad Sudiro
Published: August 2023

Pemegang akta perjanjian pengikatan jual beli (pembeli) terhadap pembelian tanah atau rumah sering kali dirugikan ketika pengembang selaku penjual dinyatakan pailit oleh pengadilan, yang otomatis seluruh harta kekayaannya pada saat itu dan selama proses pailit akan masuk ke dalam boedel pailit. Namun, terdapat pengecualian terhadap Perjanjian Pengikatan Jual Beli (PPJB) yang memiliki kekuatan hukum. Untuk menganalisis dan mengkaji hal tersebut, maka rumusan masalah pada penelitian ini. Pertama, bagaimana kekuatan hukum atas PPJB lunas yang belum mendapatkan pemecahan sertipikat dari developer yang dipailitkan berdasarkan hukum nasional? Kedua, bagaimana pertimbangan hakim terhadap status PPJB lunas yang belum mendapatkan pemecahan sertipikat dari developer yang dipailitkan berdasarkan Putusan Mahkamah Agung Nomor 481 K/Pdt.Sus-Pailit/2020? Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini ialah penelitian hukum normatif berupa data sekunder yang didukung oleh bahan hukum primer, bahan hukum sekunder, dan bahan hukum tersier yang mana seluruh data bersumber dari studi kepustakaan. Hasil penelitian ini ialah mengacu pada Surat Edaran Mahkamah Agung Nomor 4 Tahun 2016, terdapat penjelasan bahwa peralihan hak atas tanah berdasarkan PPJB secara hukum terjadi jika pembeli telah membayar lunas harga tanah, telah menguasai objek jual beli dan dilakukan dengan itikad baik. Selain itu, PPJB yang kuat ialah yang dibuat dihadapan Notaris. Dalam pertimbangannya, Hakim telah mengabaikan bukti P-3 dan petunjuk Surat Edaran Mahkamah Agung Nomor 4 Tahun 2016. Hal ini menandakan bahwa terdapat kekeliruan dan secara tidak langsung juga telah mencederai prinsip perlindungan hukum yang seyogyanya harus dilakukan oleh seorang Hakim.
To kneel or not to kneel: Appropriating a religious and sport symbol for racial justice in South Africa
Authors: Andrew D.
Published: August 2023

The act of kneeling of the Black Lives Matter Movement (BLM) has its origin in both the religious and the sport environment. In some religious circles it is believed that kneeling is a form of submission to God and in other circles it is a symbol of resistance to oppressive and dehumanising practices and structures. This article intends to investigate critically the use of the symbolism of kneeling, its socio-political and religious implications, how it is appropriated to address racism and other inequalities in sport, and how it can become a symbol in the process of achieving racial justice. The purposeof the study is to investigate whether the BLM concept of taking the knee (as well as the related expression “I can’t breathe”) and its ambiguous interpretation can be appropriated in the South African context and whether it can assist the struggle to achieve racial justice in South Africa. The study will follow a multidisciplinary approach and will utilise comparative literature analysis.
Feminist spiritualities, gender equality and sustainable development: The possibilities of a countermovement
Authors: Swanepoel N. , Van Wyk T.
Published: August 2023

Feminist historiography indicates that spirituality has historically been one of the instruments whereby women could “speak”. This “voice” implied recognition and authority, to a certain degree, in a patriarchal-oriented reality. In this regard, feminist spirituality became a vehicle for women to authorise their own religious and spiritual contributions and insights. Feminist spirituality became a countermovement – countering perceptions and ingrained convictions that a woman could not be a mediator between God and humanity. Feminist spirituality contributed to the creation of spaces for women to study and participate in the creation of religious-spiritual texts. Women’s contexts are diverse and intersectional, and so is feminist spirituality, to the extent that it is more appropriate to speak of feminist spiritualities in the plural. This article explores the possibilities of feminist spirituality as countermovement that contributes to the realisation of gender equality, in the way that gender equality finds expression in the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations. It is situatedwithin a growing field of work that explores how faith communities’ religion and spirituality contribute to their being agents of sustainable development, and within the contextual urgency of the sustainable development agenda.

In this book, Kwame Bediako explores the theme of identity and Christianity from a broad perspective, addressing many issues modern scholars have battled with. Although Bediako’s focus is postmissionary Christianity in Africa, dating from the 1960s to the present, he gives a foundational background to issues related to culture and identity since the birth of Christianity in the first century AD.
Stand-up preaching
Authors: Wessels W.
Published: August 2023

Stand-Up Preaching, as per the subject line, promises homiletic insights from contemporary comedians. I must admit that Myers engages with contemporary comedians and the theory of comedy, as far as I can discern, in the most thorough manner possible in a single book. The list of comedians he contemplates is exceptionally comprehensive, and it seems that every well-known comedian who has set foot on American soil has at least been mentioned. I found myself, throughout the book, researching the comedians he introduced for further context on these personalities and backgrounds. In that respect, this is a brilliantly researched work by Myers.

Authors: Oosthuysen Morné , Strauss W. Maartin , Somers Michael
Published: August 2023

Background: Much of the Grassland Biome in South Africa is prone to shrub encroachment, leading to loss of ecosystem services, habitat heterogeneity and species diversity. Burrowing mammals are an important component of grasslands as these animals create microhabitats for other taxa, including smaller mammal species, birds, reptiles and invertebrates. However, our understanding of how shrub encroachment affects burrowing mammals is poor.
Objectives: Here we assessed the relationship between burrow abundance and bankrupt bush, Seriphium plumosum, encroachment as well as burrowing mammal diversity in bankrupt bush encroached and non-encroached grasslands.
Method: Shrub density, medium and large mammal burrow abundance and density were measured in 24 encroached and 24 non-encroached areas randomly selected in the Telperion Nature Reserve, Mpumalanga, South Africa. In addition, burrowing mammal diversity was assessed using camera traps in a subset of six encroached and six non-encroached areas.
Results: Our results show that the abundance and density of medium and large burrows were significantly lower in encroached areas than in non-encroached areas (p = 0.011 and p < 0.001, respectively). The relationship between burrow abundance and bankrupt bush encroachment was negative (rho = -0.456, p = 0.001). However, burrowing mammal diversity had no significant difference between encroached and non-encroached areas.
Conclusion: Our data, therefore, suggest that with increasing bankrupt bush encroachment and a decreased abundance in burrowing mammal ecosystem services, a negative effect will occur on burrowing mammal communities, leading to the reduction in species-specific habitat heterogeneity and possibly animal biodiversity.
First record of Amaranthus crassipes subsp. warnockii (I.M.Johnst.) N.Bayón (Amaranthaceae) outside of the Americas, with nomenclatural notes
Authors: Iamonico Duilio , El Mokni Ridha
Published: August 2023

Background: The genus Amaranthus is taxonomically complex because of its high morphological variability, which led to nomenclatural confusion, misapplication of names and misidentifications. Unfortunately, floristic and taxonomic studies on this genus are still incomplete. A population of Amaranthus crassipes subsp. warnockii was discovered in Monastir Governorate, Tunisia, representing the first record for both the Tunisian and the African floras, as well as the first one outside of its American native distribution area.
Objectives: The main aim of the present study was to record Amaranthus crassipes subsp. warnockii (I.M.Johnst.) N.Bayón in Tunisia and Africa for the first time. Morphological characters and ecological data were provided. Clarification about the typification of the names Amaranthus crassipes, A. warnockii and Scleropus amaranthoides was also presented.
Methods: The work was based on field surveys, analysis of relevant literature and examination of specimens preserved in the herbaria GH, HAL, P, RO, NY, US and the Herbarium of the Faculty of Pharmacy of Monastir (Monastir University).
Results: Nomenclatural notes were provided for Schlechtendal’s A. crassipes (lectotype at HAL, designated by Henrickson in 1999 but here corrected according to Art. 9.10 of the ICN); Schrader’s Scleropus amaranthoides [a superfluous and illegitimate name (Arts. 52.1 and 52.2 of the ICN) and regarded as a homotypic synonym of A. crassipes s.str.]; and Moquin-Tandon’s Scleropus amaranthoides [an invalid name (Art. 36.1a of the ICN)].
Conclusion: Amaranthus crassipes subsp. warnockii is an alien species in Tunisia, growing in human-made habitat on clayey and sandy substrates within ruderal vegetation where it can be considered a casual. We hope that in the future continuous monitoring of the population will take place, to verify the possible naturalisation and spread of this taxon in Tunisia. If the latter happens, actions for eradication of the plants are needed.
Urban intensity and flower community structure drive monkey beetle assemblage in Cape Town
Authors: Brom Peta , Colville Jonathan , Underhill Leslie , Winter Kevin
Published: August 2023

Background: Urban landscapes present an important opportunity for pollinator conservation, but little is known about the status and distribution of pollinator populations in urban habitats in Africa. This represents a major gap in the development of a global understanding of urban pollinators – particularly from the rapidly urbanising context. This study uses a speciose clade of flower-visiting beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Hopliini) to explore patterns of pollinator distribution in a major metropolitan area in South Africa.
Objectives: We investigated community composition across gradients of urban intensity (defined according to the percentage of soil-sealing within 1 km2 of each sampling location) and socio-economic status to determine pollinator responses to these urban landscape effects.
Methods: A selection of 142 sites were surveyed twice in the austral spring seasons of 2018 and 2019. Data were collected on habitat structure, flower diversity, and pollinator diversity.
Results: The study found that different feeding guilds of monkey beetles favoured different levels of urban intensity and that beetle richness significantly correlated with flower richness. It did not, however, correlate with diversity indicating that abundance is less impacted than the number of species present. Monkey beetles with moderate sensitivity to urban intensity benefitted from the presence of preferred species of flowers.
Conclusion: Overall, the findings demonstrate the importance of plant community assemblage in supporting urban monkey beetles. We recommend landscaping with preferred flower species in urban parks to support urban pollinators.

This research article presents an overview of the role of carbon farming in mitigating climate change by sequestering carbon in soil and vegetation. The article highlights the potential of remote sensing technology for monitoring carbon farming practices and CO2 absorption. Carbon farming practices, such as conservation tillage, cover cropping, crop rotation, and agroforestry, are discussed. The article explains the application of remote sensing technology, including satellite-based remote sensing, aerial photography, and ground-based sensors, in monitoring changes in carbon sequestration and CO2 absorption. The article concludes that remote sensing technology provides a powerful tool for monitoring carbon farming and CO2 absorption and is likely to become even more effective in the future as technology continues to advance.

Published: August 2023

Background/Aims: Although rituximab, an antiCD20 monoclonal antibody, has dramatically improved the clinical outcomes of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, rituximab resistance remains a challenge.Methods: We developed a rituximab-resistant cell line (RRCL) by sequential exposure to gradually increasing concentrations of rituximab in a rituximab-sensitive cell line (RSCL). When the same dose of rituximab was administered, RRCL showed a smaller decrease in cell viability and apoptosis than RSCL. To determine the differences in gene expression between RSCL and RRCL, we performed next-generation sequencing.Results: In total, 1,879 differentially expressed genes were identified, and in the over-representation analysis of Consensus-PathDB, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway showed statistical significance. MAPK13, which encodes the p38δ protein, was expressed more than four-fold in RRCL. Western blot analysis revealed that phosphop38 expression mainwas increased in RRCL, and when p38 inhibitor was administered, phosphop38 expression was significantly decreased. Therefore, we hypothesized that p38 MAPK activation was associated with rituximab resistance. Previous studies have suggested that p38 is associated with NF-κB activation. Deferasirox has been reported to inhibit NF-κB activity and suppress phosphorylation of the MAPK pathway. Furthermore, it also has cytotoxic effects on various cancers and synergistic effects in overcoming drug resistance. In this study, we confirmed that deferasirox induced dose-dependent cytotoxicity in both RSCL and RRCL, and the combination of deferasirox and rituximab showed a synergistic effect in RRCL at all combination concentrations.Conclusions: We suggest that p38 MAPK, especially p38δ, activation is associated with rituximab resistance, and deferasirox may be a candidate to overcome rituximab resistance.
Data augmentation in economic time series: Behavior and improvements in predictions
Authors: de Rojas Ana Lazcano
Published: August 2023

The performance of neural networks and statistical models in time series prediction is conditioned by the amount of data available. The lack of observations is one of the main factors influencing the representativeness of the underlying patterns and trends. Using data augmentation techniques based on classical statistical techniques and neural networks, it is possible to generate additional observations and improve the accuracy of the predictions. The particular characteristics of economic time series make it necessary that data augmentation techniques do not significantly influence these characteristics, this fact would alter the quality of the details in the study. This paper analyzes the performance obtained by two data augmentation techniques applied to a time series and finally processed by an ARIMA model and a neural network model to make predictions. The results show a significant improvement in the predictions by the time series augmented by traditional interpolation techniques, obtaining a better fit and correlation with the original series.
