CULTURAL ECOFEMINISM IN CHARLOTTE PERKINS GILMAN’S FEMINIST UTOPIAN VISION AND ITS LIMITATIONS
Authors: GÖZLET Cansu Özge
Published: February 2021

Charlotte Perkins Gilman was an American feminist author of fiction and non-fiction, lecturer and sociologist of the late 19th, early 20th centuries. She integrates her sociological commentary into her ecofeminist vision for an alternative community consisting merely of women in her utopian fiction Herland published in 1915. The community she envisioned can best be read through the lens of cultural ecofeminism with her essentialist view of women’s innate tendency to uphold the sanctity of the environment opting for a peaceful coexistence rather than patriarchal domination. Since men are considered to be impediments to such a coexistence, they are absent from the utopian vision based on sisterhood of all women where they breed through parthenogenesis and raise their daughters as a community rather than in individual family units. Familial relations are not entirely eliminated, rather, as all Herlanders descend from a common maternal ancestor, are biologically as well as culturally connected.
GENDERED DISCOURSE THROUGH PATRIARCHAL SOCIETY
Authors: ISGANDAROVA Nigiar
Published: February 2021

This paper aims to articulate the problem of relationship between an individual and society and its outreach through literary texts. I argue that the paradigms of interrelation of women, men, and society, particularly in the communities with pivotal patriarchal status have been directly adapted to the concepts and theories of society development. In the history of philosophy and sociology, various paradigms of society have been developed; the most popular among them are associating society with a bio-organism, analyzing society and an individual from an anthropological point of view, constructing a functionalist approach to this problem. J.J. Rousseau, Spinoza, Diderot, R. Merton, E. Durkheim for centuries have attempted to define a society and highlight its essential features.
In this research, the problem is developing through the literary texts of the prominent Azerbaijan writer Anar and his literary characters, focusing on their moral and ethical priorities. As a basis for our research, we have chosen the Robert Merton’s structural functionalism approach.
In addition, I agree with many scholars who believe that the movement of history has a spiral shape and at each turn of this spiral, the assessment of the individual by society is equivalent to the totality of values determined by society itself. It is accepted that the number of moral values is stable, but their combination is changing, corresponding to the Fibonacci Sequence, where spirals have a fixed proportion determining their shape (Vauclair 2009).
I propose that in all patriarchal societies, the mode of perception of a woman by a man occurs at the level of his genetic memory. Moreover, the memory dictates him the same values as it was centuries ago. The code has not been changed since the period of the Lost Paradise. We will trace this formula of stable genetic memory and changing forms of assessment in a male-dominant society on the examples of the literary characters in Anar’s “White harbor” and Edgar Poe’s “Ligeia”.

Published: March 2021

Microemulsion is a thermodynamically stable dispersion consisting of an aqueous and an organic phases, both stabilized by surfactant molecules and when in need, co-active surfactant. The nature and structure of these components are essential in the formulation of microemulsified systems. For this, the construction of phase diagrams can be a fundamental tool to characterize the ideal experimental conditions for the existence and operation of microemulsions. Thus, the present work had as objective to obtain a comparison between microemulsions with different compositions through the construction of ternary diagrams, aiming to achieve the most stable system. To produce microemulsified systems, a non-ionic surfactant (Ultranex NP 60), a co-surfactant (Isopropyl Alcohol), two organic phases (pine oil and castor oil) and an aqueous phase (glycerin solution) were used. Also complementing the study, rheological tests of the oleic phases were accomplished, as well as their thermogravimetric analysis. The focus of the reached ternary diagrams was to find the system with the largest Winsor type IV region (microemulsion). It was verified this region had a significant increase by the addition of the co-surfactant in the medium and using a vegetable oil, such as pine oil, since it promotes strong surfactant-oil interactions on the interface.

Published: March 2021

This work provides new estimates of the effect of the Brazilian Unemployment Insurance Program (Programa Seguro-Desemprego) at the national level and disaggregating the data considering urban and rural areas, using data from the National Household Sample Survey (Pesquisa Nacional de Amostra Por Domicílio - PNAD) on individuals for the year 2015. The methodology applied for empirical analysis is the Regression Discontinuity Design (RDD), using added covariates and entropy balancing. Our objective is to analyze if there is an effect of the unemployment benefit on reinsertion wages, and if it there is a positive relationship, based on the theoretical references of the Human Capital Theory and Job Search models. Among the main results found, the unemployment benefit program does not seem to exercise any significant change in the reinsertion wage, except for workers in the rural environment. It was also found that males receive lower reinsertion wages than females, and that the Northeast region of Brazil features the highest reinsertion wages.

Published: February 2021

Objective: This investigation aimed to detect the possible protective impacts of naringenin (NAR) on vancomycin (VCM)-induced liver toxicity through measuring caspase-3, -8 and -9 activities as markers of apoptosis and the levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, cyclooxygenase-2 and vascular endothelial growth factor as inflammation markers and assessing the histopathological alterations in rats.

Methods: The rats were allocated into seven groups as, the control group (saline, intraperitoneally (i.p.)), VCM group (400 mg/kg/day, i.p.), Carboxymethyl cellulose group (0.5% CMC, orally), NAR100 group (100 mg/kg/day, orally), VCM+NAR25 group (25 mg/kg/day, orally), VCM+NAR50 group (50 mg/kg/day, orally), VCM+NAR100 group (100 mg/kg/day, orally). The caspase enzyme activities and inflammation markers were measured using colorimetric methods and ELISA, respectively. Histopathological examinations were performed.

Results: The caspase activities and levels of inflammation markers were significantly higher in the VCM group as opposed to the other groups. The caspase activities were significantly ameliorated in the VCM+NAR25 group compared to the VCM+NAR50 and VCM+NAR100 groups, but the levels of inflammation markers were significantly attenuated in VCM+NAR50 group and, especially, VCM+NAR100 group compared to VCM+NAR25 group.

Conclusion: NAR has potential protective impact on liver injury caused by VCM, and the protective impacts of NAR at distinct doses may occur via different molecular mechanisms.

Published: March 2021

Purpose

The purpose of the study is to describe the genetic and clinical features of 17 patients with ABCA4-related inherited retinal degenerations (IRDs) and define the phenotype–genotype correlations.

Methods

In this multicenter retrospective study, 17 patients from 16 families were enrolled, and ABCA4 gene variants were detected using targeted next-generation sequencing using a custom designed panel for IRDs. Sanger sequencing and co-segregation analysis of the suspected pathogenic variants were performed with the family members. The pathogenicities of variants were evaluated according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guidelines (ACMG). Protein structure modifications mediated by the variants were studied using bioinformatic analyses.

Results

The probands were diagnosed with Stargardt disease 1 (7), cone-rod dystrophy type 3 (8), cone dystrophy (1), and retinitis pigmentosa 19 (1). Onset of symptoms occurred between 5 and 27 years of age (median age = 12.4 years). A total of 30 unique ABCA4 suspicious pathogenic variations were observed, including 18 missense mutations, seven frameshift mutations, two nonsense mutations, one canonical splice site mutation, one small in-frame deletion, and one insertion. Four novel ABCA4 variants were identified. Two novel frameshift variants, c.1290dupC (p.W431fs), and c.2967dupT (G990fs), were determined to be pathogenic. A novel missense variant c.G5761T (p.V1921L) was likely pathogenic, and another novel missense c.C170G (p.P57R) variant was of undetermined significance. All ABCA4 variants tested in this study inordinately changed the physico-chemical parameters and structure of protein based on in silico analysis.

Conclusion

ABCA4-related IRD is genetically and clinically highly heterogeneous. Four novel ABCA4 variants were identified. This study will expand the spectrum of disease-causing variants in ABCA4, which will further facilitate genetic counseling.

Authors: Xiong Anji , Xiong Chen , Yang Guancui , Shuai Yu , Liu Deng , He Linqian , Guo Zepeng , Zhang Liangwen , Liu Yi , Yang Yuan , Cui Beibei , Shuai Shiquan
Published: March 2021

Objectives:The successful introduction of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) as a treatment for renal allograft reduced the incidence of acute rejection. The inspiring effects obtained by the MMF have led to an evaluation of its therapeutic potency on ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV). However, there is little evidence of the MMF's efficacy on the AAV. The meta-analysis is carried out to evaluate the efficacy of MMF as a remission induction therapy in AAV.

Methods:Up to June 30th, 2020, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase have been searched comprehensively. According to heterogeneity, the pooled remission rates are synthesized by either fixed-effect or random-effect models.

Results:The eight included studies comprising 230 patients who were treated with MMF as induction therapy are included in our analysis. The pooled overall remission rate is 74% (95% CI: 0.68–0.80). The remission rate, the infection rate and the rate of leukopenia of four randomized controlled trials aimed at comparing the effects of MMF with cyclophosphamide (CYC) during induction therapy for AAV have no statistical significance (P> 0.05).

Conclusion:MMF may be an alternative to CYC for remission induction therapy in AAV with MPO-ANCA, mild to moderate renal involvement and non-life-threatening state. Whether to observe the effect of MMF in AAV or to compare the difference between MMF and CYC in the future studies, risk stratification and subgrouping of AAV patients should be first carried out to correctly identify the AAV subgroup suitable for MMF.

Published: March 2021

Evaluating the price policy of raw milk is of great significance to the sustainable development of an industry supply chain. In this context, our study used the multi-period difference-in-difference method to systematically examine the impact of the policy implementation on product price and profit distribution in the supply chain. The results showed the following: (1) the price of raw milk in the implementation area of the price support policy is 13.54% higher than that of the unimplemented area; (2) the effect of price increase in the western region (15.5%) is higher than that in the eastern region (13%), and the central region (10.73%); (3) furthermore, the purchase price guidance policy of raw milk drives price increase or price suppression in the links of the supply chain to promote a balanced distribution of profits among the participants in the chain. These conclusions all have good stability and have reference significance for further improving and adjusting the price support policy of raw milk to realize the sustainable development of the Chinese dairy industry. This will enhance the production confidence of Chinese raw milk producers and improve Chinese consumers’ expectations and consumer psychology regarding domestic dairy products.

Precision viticulture (PV) aims to optimize vineyard management, reducing the use of resources, the environmental impact and maximizing the yield and quality of the production. New technologies as UAVs, satellites, proximal sensors and variable rate machines (VRT) are being developed and used more and more frequently in recent years thanks also to informatics systems able to read, analyze and process a huge number of data in order to give the winegrowers a decision support system (DSS) for making better decisions at the right place and time. This review presents a brief state of the art of precision viticulture technologies, focusing on monitoring tools, i.e., remote/proximal sensing, variable rate machines, robotics, DSS and the wireless sensor network.
A Novel High Performance Discrete Flux Integrator for Control Algorithms of Fast Rotating AC Machines
Authors: Rossi Claudio , Pilati Alessio , Bertoldi Marco
Published: March 2021

This paper deals with the digital implementation of a motor control algorithm based on a unified machine model, thus usable with every traditional electric machine type (induction, brushless with interior permanent magnets, surface permanent magnets or pure reluctance). Starting from the machine equations in matrix form in continuous time, the paper exposes their discrete time transformation, suitable for digital implementation. Since the solution of these equations requires integration, the virtual division of the calculation time in sub-intervals is proposed to make the calculations more accurate. Optimization of this solver enables faster runs and higher precision especially when high rotating speed requires fast calculation time. The proposed solver is presented at different implementation levels, and its speed and accuracy performance are compared with standard solvers.

Red Sr2Si5N8: Eu2+ phosphor with excellent properties was successfully synthesized by pellet method, an effective synthesis technology presented in this work. The influence of reactive conditions such as pellet pressure, position of samples in carbon powder, and Eu2+ ion concentration on the properties of crystallinity, particle size, and the photoluminescence properties of Sr2Si5N8: Eu2+ phosphor were studied in detail. Our results show that the optimum preparation condition is 1500, 5 MPa pellet pressure, and the middle position in carbon powder. The phosphor has improved its efficiency under excitation of near UV and blue LEDs, and it emits red light at around 620 nm. In addition, red LEDs were successfully prepared by using Sr2Si5N8: Eu2+ phosphor combined with UV-chips with maximum luminous efficiency at 9.443 lm/W, when the molar concentration of Eu2+ ion reached 0.001.
Automatically Tracking Road Centerlines from Low-Frequency GPS Trajectory Data
Authors: Chen Banqiao , Ding Chibiao , Ren Wenjuan , Xu Guangluan
Published: March 2021

High-quality digital road maps are essential prerequisites of location-based services and smart city applications. The massive and accessible GPS trajectory data generated by mobile GPS devices provide a new means through which to generate maps. However, due to the low sampling rate and multi-level disparity problems, automatically generating road maps is challenging and the generated maps cannot yet meet commercial requirements. In this paper, we present a GPS trajectory data-based road tracking algorithm, including an active contour-based road centerline refinement algorithm as the necessary post-processing. First, the low-frequency trajectory data were transferred into a density estimation map representing the roads through a kernel density estimator, for a seeding algorithm to automatically generate the initial points of the road-tracking algorithm. Then, we present a template-matching-based road-direction extraction algorithm for the road trackers to conduct simple correction, based on local density information. Last, we present an active contour-based road centerline refinement algorithm, considering both the geometric information of roads and density information. The generated road map was quantitatively evaluated using maps offered by the OpenStreetMap. Compared to other methods, our approach could produce a higher quality map with fewer zig-zag roads, and therefore more accurately represents reality.

Published: March 2021

The multifactorial nature of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) calls for the development of multitarget agents addressing key pathogenic processes. A total of 26 Claulansine F–donepezil hybrids were designed and synthesized as multitarget drugs. Among these compounds, six compounds exhibited excellent acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity (half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) 1.63–4.62 μM). Moreover, (E)-3-(8-(tert-Butyl)-3,3-dimethyl-3,11-dihydropyrano[3,2-a]carbazol-5-yl)-N-((1-(2-chlorobenzyl)piperidin-4-yl)methyl)acrylamide (6bd) exhibited better neuroprotective effects against OGD/R (oxygen–glucose deprivation/reoxygenation) than lead compound Claulansine F. Furthermore, 6bd could cross the blood–brain barrier in vitro. More importantly, compared to edaravone, 6bd had stronger free-radical scavenging activity. Molecular docking studies revealed that 6bd could interact with the catalytic active site of AChE. All of these outstanding in vitro results indicate 6bd as a leading structure worthy of further investigation.

Published: March 2021

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are green organic solvents that have broad prospects in the extraction of effective components of traditional Chinese medicine. This work employed the quantitative analysis of multi-components by a single marker (QAMS) method to quantitatively determine the six effective components of glycyrrhizic acid, liquiritin, isoliquiritin apioside, liquiritigenin, isoliquiritin, and glycyrrhetinic acid in Glycyrrhiza uralensis, which was used for comprehensive evaluation of the optimal extraction process by DESs. First, Choline Chloride: Lactic Acid (ChCl-LA, molar ratio 1:1) was selected as the most suitable DES by comparing the extraction yields of different DESs. Second, the extraction protocol was investigated by extraction time, extraction temperature, liquid-to-material ratio, molar ratio, and ultrasonic power. The Box–Behnken design (BBD) combined with response surface methodology (RSM) was used to investigate the optimal DES conditions. The result showed that the best DES system was 1.3-butanediol/choline chloride (ChCl) with the molar ratio of 4:1. The optimal extraction process of licorice was 20 mL/g, the water content was 30%, and the extraction time was 41 min. The comprehensive impact factor (z) was 0.92. At the same time, it was found that the microstructure of the residue extracted by the eutectic solvent was more severely damaged than the residue after the traditional solvent extraction through observation under an electron microscope. The DES has the characteristics of high efficiency and rapidity as an extraction solution.
Modelling the Impacts of Climate Change on Shallow Groundwater Conditions in Hungary
Authors: Kovács Attila , Jakab András
Published: March 2021

The purpose of the present study was to develop a methodology for the evaluation of direct climate impacts on shallow groundwater resources and its country-scale application in Hungary. A modular methodology was applied. It comprised the definition of climate zones and recharge zones, recharge calculation by hydrological models, and the numerical modelling of the groundwater table. Projections of regional climate models for three different time intervals were applied for the simulation of predictive scenarios. The investigated regional climate model projections predict rising annual average temperature and generally dropping annual rainfall rates throughout the following decades. Based on predictive modelling, recharge rates and groundwater levels are expected to drop in elevated geographic areas such as the Alpokalja, the Eastern parts of the Transdanubian Mountains, the Mecsek, and Northern Mountain Ranges. Less significant groundwater level drops are predicted in foothill areas, and across the Western part of the Tiszántúl, the Duna-Tisza Interfluve, and the Szigetköz areas. Slightly increasing recharge and groundwater levels are predicted in the Transdanubian Hills and the Western part of the Transdanubian Mountains. Simulation results represent groundwater conditions at the country scale. However, the applied methodology is suitable for simulating climate change impacts at various scales.
Falling Short: Adverse Events Related to Patient Height
Authors: Allen Caitlyn , Wiggermann Neal
Published: March 2021

Measuring a patient’s height is a routine part of a healthcare encounter. But once completed, how often is this information used? For most of us who fall within 95% of the mean population height, this metric is rarely discussed, but what happens when it is overlooked? And what about those on the outer tails of the bell curve of population
distribution?

Almost 1 million (909,222) adults in the United States are at least 6'4", more than the entire population of South Dakota (884,659). Conversely, an estimated 30,000 Americans have a form of dwarfism, typically defined as an adult height no taller than 4'10". However, despite this prevalence, the healthcare system struggles to provide consistent, adequate care for patients with extreme heights.

“Being tall is not a disease, but it is a consideration,” shared one 6' 3" woman, who descended from a long line of “Scottish Vikings.”* “I am one of the short ones at family reunions,” she continued; her father tops 6' 8". Experiences like hers prompted this investigation into the medical mishaps and trauma that have befallen those who are not “average-sized.”
A Stress-State based Peridynamics model for elastio-plastic material modeling
Authors: Jahjouh Mahmoud
Published: March 2021

A Stress-State based PD (SSPD) model using a well-known yield criteria is proposed in this paper and tested on the modeling of two dimensional bars under different loading levels as a first step for further development. SSPD is based upon peridynamics (PD) which utilize temporal spatial integro-differential equation of motion and formulates continuum problems in terms of integral equations, which are capable of modeling discontinuities such as cracks. The proposed bond strength not only depends on the bond stretch, but on the current state of all bonds connected to a particle as well. Thus, a stress-based peridynamics model is obtained. The tensile simulation compared to conventional FEM shows promising performance with an error of 5%. Compression simulations, however, need more investigation to include the effect of contact forces.

Pilgrimsfalkens Falco peregrinus ockupation av häckningslokaler i Västsverige vintrarna 2000/2001–2004/2005
Authors: Andersson Christer K , Sandberg Pär
Published: March 2021

During five winters (2000/2001–2004/2005), 24 breeding territories of Peregrine Falcon Falco peregrinus in Bohuslän, Västergötland and Halland in western Sweden were visited at least once. At these territories 10–14 (mean = 12) Peregrines were observed each winter. All birds that were aged were adults and the sex ratio was 52% females and 48% males. At least 50% of the breeding territories were estimated to be occupied by Peregrines each winter. Five of seven territories which usually were occupied in winter had a long record of breeding Peregrines. Some important factors that cause Peregrines to stay during the winter in their breeding territories in western Sweden are probably the mild climate, the abundance of prey (for instance Jackdaws Corvus monedula) and the competition for breeding territories.
From Mediterranean to Scandinavia—timing and body mass condition in four long distance migrants
Authors: Barboutis Christos , Larsson Leo , Steinholtz Åsa , Fransson Thord
Published: March 2021

In spring, long-distance migrants are considered to adopt a time-minimizing strategy to promote early arrival at breeding sites. The phenology of spring migration was examined and compared between two insular stopover sites in Greece and Sweden for Icterine Warbler, Wood Warbler, Spotted Flycatcher and Collared Flycatcher. All of them migrate due north which means that some proportion of birds that pass through Greece are heading to Scandinavia. The Collared Flycatcher had the earliest and the Icterine Warbler the latest arrival time. The differences in median dates between Greece and Sweden were 3–4 weeks and the passages in Sweden were generally more condensed in time. The average overall speed estimates were very similar and varied between 129 and 137 km/d. In most of the species higher speed estimates were associated with years when birds arrived late in Greece. After crossing continental Europe birds arrive at the Swedish study site with significantly higher body masses compared to when they arrive in Greece and this might indicate a preparation for arriving at breeding grounds with some overload.

The Mimic Man in Kiran Desai’s The Inheritance of Loss
Authors: Hasanthi D R
Published: March 2021

Spread over continents, countries and cultures, Kiran Desai’s The Inheritance of Loss (2006) takes us on a tour de force into the realms of multiculturalism and hybridity in Indian culture. It focuses on the changing face of India, amidst East - West encounter, globalization and glocalization. The novel as a postcolonial text puts forth, the authority politics of cultural imperialism, even after the independence of India. This paper appraises the novel using Homi. K. Bhabha’s theory of mimicry, hybridity and ambivalence. It concentrates on the mimic man of the novel Judge Jemubhai Patel. This paper focuses on the hybridization of culture along with the making of reformed hybrids who are in a constant conflict with their identity, language and culture on account of the praxis between the culture of the colonized and the colonizer during and after colonization of the colonized. This paper recommends proper mapping of mimicry and hybridity with indigenous culture, values and ethics. It advocates sowing and stringing in cultural amalgamation and westernization in indigenous Indian culture and ethos for a better life and better Indian society.

Una cuestión de clase. Jordi, elitismo y mariconcracia en El día que murió Marilyn.
Authors: Martínez Rey Sergio
Published: March 2021

El día que murió Marilyn (1998) de Terenci Moix, en su calidad de relato coral de la sociedad burguesa barcelonesa tardofranquista, constituye uno de los ejemplos más destacados de novela de aspiración descriptiva intergeneracional de la narrativa española. El conjunto de sus personajes-narradores construyen un completo cuadro de su tiempo aportando su personal perspectiva y locus de enunciación, profundamente influenciado por su contexto sociohistórico. No obstante, quizá la figura más descollante entre todos ellos sea Jordi, mejor amigo de Bruno, vástago de los Llovet y abiertamente homosexual. A partir de un estudio pormenorizado de la caracterización de este personaje en la novela, el presente estudio analizará la construcción de una noción muy particular de “clase” derivada de la acumulación y nivelación de diferentes referentes culturales, y de la tensión entre élite y mediocridad, explicable mediante la aplicación de la teoría queer y el concepto de camp al examen de la evolución de Jordi y su visión de la realidad.
