Published: September 2024

The central autonomous network that controls visceral systems, including circulatory and respiratory systems, includes the visceromotor infralimbic cortex (IL), which is one of the areas of the prefrontal cortex and is located on the medial surface of the large hemispheres. At the same time, there is evidence that areas of the prefrontal cortex located on the orbitofrontal surface, including the lateral orbital cortex (LO), can participate in the control of autonomous functions. The purpose of this work was to experimentally test the hypothesis according to which the participation of LO in the control of respiratory and circulatory functions is realized through IL. To this end, in acute experiments on laboratory rats anesthetized with urethane, the effect of microinjections of cobalt chloride solution (CoCl2) in IL on the reactions of circulatory and respiratory systems caused by microelectrostimulation of LO was investigated. It is known that Co2+ ions are non-specific blockers of synaptic transmission, therefore microinjections of CoCl2 solutions lead to disruption of conduction in the structures of the central nervous system. In the first, control series of experiments, micro-electrical stimulation of LO caused specific responses of the circulatory and respiratory systems, which were consistently reproduced throughout the experiment. In the second, experimental series, the introduction of CoCl2 solution into IL suppressed responses to micro-electrical stimulation of LO, and this effect turned out to be reversible. The obtained results confirmed the hypothesis put forward about the possible participation of IL in the implementation of autonomous LO functions. The elucidation of the mechanisms that ensure the interaction of LO and IL in the context of autonomous control should be the subject of further experimental research.

DIGITAL QUALITY OF SOCIETY’S LIFE AS A RESULT OF ECONOMIC GROWTH IN THE CONDITIONS OF INSTITUTIONAL AND STRUCTURAL CHANGES
Authors: KRAUS Kateryna
Published: September 2024

At the current stage of its development, the world is in conditions of global digitalization, the events of recent years only accelerate technological processes. Advanced digital technologies are changing both the approach to the implementation of human life processes and the vector of socio-economic development of the country. The digital transformation of the economy affects all economic relations with the active use of modern ICT, and the well-being of the population is measured by the digital quality of life. The author analyzed the dynamics of changes in the ranking of individual countries of the world according to the Digital Quality of Life (DQL) Index in 2022–2023 and found that France and Finland became the leaders in 2023, while Ukraine took only 46th place. It has been established that the higher the GDP per capita, the higher the DQL Index, this is particularly evident in Western Europe, South America, Australia and New Zealand, and Northern Europe. It found that a country’s digital quality of life is affected by its access to the Internet and in 2023, the global trend shows increased Internet access, and people needed to work 11% less to afford fixed broadband Internet access. The article also examines the dynamics of changes in the rating of individual countries of the world for the development of e-security and e-infrastructure according to the DQL Index in 2022–2023, as a result of which it was found that Ukraine has positive dynamics towards the improvement of e-security. In order to improve the level of digital quality of life in Ukraine, it is proposed to create conditions for learning how to work with digital technologies and platforms; to form digital literacy of the country’s population; strengthen information security; support businesses in using modern digital business models.
Generation and content validation of physical and vocational rehabilitation in paraplegics: An interview guide
Authors: Saxena Akanksha , Goyal Manu , Samuel Asir John
Published: September 2024

BACKGROUND: As the mainstay treatment for paraplegics is rehabilitation, patient satisfaction and experience are important predictors of the care being provided. To understand whether the current arrangements of rehabilitation services are sufficient to help an individual with paraplegia return to a productive life. Patient-centered interview guides to explore their rehabilitation experience are lacking, which calls for a generation of the same. OBJECTIVE: To generate and validate an interview guide (PVR-PIG), which aims at understanding and exploring the experience of physical and vocational rehabilitation for individuals with paraplegia. METHODS: After an extensive literature search, an initial 27-item interview guide was formulated under three domains: general experience and expectations from rehabilitation care; physical rehabilitation experience, barriers, and facilitators; and vocational rehabilitation. Later, it was sent for content validation to a multidisciplinary expert panel with prior experience in spinal cord injury (SCI) management. RESULTS: After suggestions were received from nine experts with an average of 14 years of experience in dealing with SCI, a 15-item interview guide was finalized, with a scale-level and item-level content validity index of 0.897 and 0.78–1, respectively. CONCLUSION: The generated interview guide (PVR-PIG) aimed to explore physical and vocational rehabilitation experiences in paraplegics was found to be valid.

Published: September 2024

Feline infectious peritonitis is a difficult-to-treat disease caused by a highly virulent biotype of a widespread feline coronavirus. Vetstem LLC has developed a drug Ipecon® based on a low-molecular compound with a direct antiviral effect against RNA-containing viruses. Ipekon® has passed all preclinical studies.
The purpose of the study: to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of the veterinary drug Ipecon® in the treatment of feline infectious peritonitis.
Materials and methods: the study included 28 cats, aged 6 months to 11 years: 18 animals with exudative and 8 with non-exudative («dry») form of IPK/FIP. The animals were divided into 3 groups, taking into account the starting single dose of the drug Ipecon®: 8 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg, 12 mg/kg. The finished solution was administered subcutaneously daily, once a day, with an interval between injections of 24 hours during the entire course of treatment. The assessment of the treatment effectiveness was comprehensive, taking into account the data of the clinical examination, the results of general clinical and biochemical blood tests, ultrasound of internal organs.
Results: of the 28 animals with diagnosed IPC/FIP included in the study, 4 (14.3%) patients had a fatal outcome caused by multiple organ failure; 85.7 % of patients had the status of «clinical recovery» at the end of the course of treatment. Good tolerability of the drug Ipecon® has been established with repeated subcutaneous use. Despite the noted discomfort during administration, there were no signs of intoxication or clinically pronounced abnormalities, deterioration in the functions of organs and systems. During the use of the drug Ipecon®, only one case was noted.
Root rot of spring wheat in the Trans-Ural region, options for operational protection
Authors: Kekalo Alena , Nemchenko Vladimir
Published: September 2024

Abstract. Root rot is a harmful and widespread disease of cereal crops. In the conditions of the Urals, Siberia, and Northern Kazakhstan, its causative agents are various species of fungi of the genus Fusarium and the fungus Bipolaris sorokiniana. The purpose of this study was to comparatively determine the effectiveness of microbiological, chemical and combined protection of spring wheat seeds. Field experiments were carried out on the experimental field of the Kurgan Scientific Research Institute of Agriculture – branch of the Ural Federal Agrarian Scientific Research Centre of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Kurgan SRIA – branch of FSBSI UrFASRC, UrB of RAS) in 2019, 2021, 2022. Scientific novelty lies in the determining the competitiveness of various methods of protecting spring wheat seeds in the conditions of the Trans-Urals within the framework of modern cultivation technology. The methods used are generally accepted in the Russian Federation. Results. In conditions of almost annual occurrence of negative natural phenomena for the growth and development of plants (droughts, frosts, sudden changes in temperature, dry winds, etc.), the use of seed treaters can be an additional stress for plants; the presence of the effect of shortening the underground internode can negatively affect field germination culture. To reduce these risks, as well as the pesticide load, we recommend using a combined method of seed protection. It involves the use of a mixture of a bacterial fungicide based on Bacillus subtilis with a chemical disinfectant at half the consumption rate. At the same time, the level of control of phytopathogens is maintained, there is no retardant effect, and economic efficiency is not inferior to the level of using a two-component chemical seed protectant (113–114 %). Chemical protection of seeds reduced the development of root rot pathogens by 63–72 %. The use of combined protection provided good control of phytopathogens, including the dominant fungi Fusarium. The predominant species from the genus Fusarium were the highly dangerous F. oxysporum, F. graminearum, F. sporotrichioides.

Compensation money handed over by new residents to old residents of official residences in Langsa City as well as handover transactions for official residences have caused problems related to the status of the contract and ownership rights which occurred after payment of a sum of money which was also recognized as compensation money. Through a qualitative approach with descriptive methods, this research aims to determine the status of contracts, compensation money and ownership rights for official residences in Langsa City from a muamalat fiqh perspective. This research reveals that an official residence transaction that is recognized as a sale and purchase agreement is a false sale and purchase agreement because the old occupant as a seller is not the owner of the official residence as al-mabi' so the status of ownership of the official residence does not transfer to the buyer, but remains ownership. National Police. Furthermore, handing over compensation money is not appropriate because it is contrary to the concept of al-ta'widh, causing the transfer of assets from the party giving compensation money to be illegal to own and not permissible to use.
ПОЛІТИКА ЕТНІЧНОГО ЕКСТРЕМІЗМУ ЯК ПРОЯВ ПОЛІТИЧНОГО ТЕРОРИЗМУ
Authors: РУДА Леся
Published: September 2024

Кінець ХХ – початок ХХІ ст. характеризується збільшенням проявів терористичної діяльності, етнічної нетерпимості та протистояння держав за основні сфери впливу. Поряд з соціально-економічним впливом держав та організацій, в окремих регіонах збільшується значення культурного, ідеологічного, релігійного й етнічного впливу на населення, що проживає на цих регіонах чи в державах. Такий плив досить часто нехтує державними та міжнародними законами, мораллю, уставленими звичаями, що веде до нівелювання основних громадянських свобод і руйнування демократичного устрою. Екстремізм, у всіх його проявах, стає все більш небезпечним соціальним явищем, корінням якого є застарілі суспільні відносини, демонстративний правовий нігілізм еліт, нехтування досягненнями цивілізації, гноблення широких мас населення, провокаційні дії спецслужб тощо. Етнічний екстремізм виражається в діях, спрямованих на повне знищення національних, етнічних, расових або релігійних груп всередині держави та їх перетворення в «єдиний народ», що, в свою чергу, є вираженим геноцидом. Етнічний екстремізм проявляється в міждержавних та міжнаціональних відносинах на регіональному та локальному рівнях, а також є ефективним засобом політичного маніпулювання на міждержавному і міжнаціональному рівнях. Одним з проявів штучного загострення екстремістських настроїв в середині держави по відношенню до громадян іншої держави чи національної групи є політичний тероризм. Прояви політичного тероризму в середині держави є способом підриву існуючої політичної системи та дискредитації державної влади. Для подолання протиріч всередині багатонаціональних держав урядами створюються умови для об’єднання на основі спільних політичних, релігійних, культурних, світоглядних чи інших цінностей. Проте, така національна політика об’єднання мультинаціональної держави в єдиний народ сама носить ознаки політичного тероризму по відношенню як до своїх громадян, так і до держав-сусідів.

Authors: Хила Євгенія
Published: September 2024

Стаття присвячена дослідженню міграційних процесів у Європейському Союзі в контексті негативних демографічних змін у об’єднанні. У дослідженні проведено аналіз вікової структури населення у розрізі країн-членів та визначено основні тенденції, що характеризують проживання молоді у країнах ЄС. Визначено наслідки старіння населення для ринку праці. Проведено оцінку зовнішніх міграційних потоків, зокрема розглянуто особливості притоку мігрантів за країнами та концентрацію іноземців, що проживають на території держав. Окрема увага приділена внутрішній міграції в ЄС, що є можливою завдяки вільному руху населення, та відіграє важливу роль у переміщенні населення працездатного віку, головним чином молоді. Розглянуто співвідношення внутрішньої та зовнішньої міграції за країнами ЄС. Узагальнено, що зовнішня виїзна міграція не має значного впливу на демографічну ситуацію в ЄС загалом, в той час як внутрішня міграція спричинює дисбаланс розподілу робочої сили в межах об’єднання.

Adeguatezza e adeguamento delle pensioni: principi costituzionali e dati empirici
Authors: La Porta Salvatore
Published: September 2024

L'autore ricostruisce l'adeguatezza pensionistica di cui all'art. 38 Cost. finalizzandola all'intento partecipativo ex art. 3 Cost. Si sostiene che da questa finalizzazione discenda il dovere dell'adeguamento nel tempo della pensione. Ferma questa finalizzazione, si so-stiene che nella determinazione concreta dell'importo pensionistico, il legislatore debba attingere a dati empirici, mantenendo anche la sostenibilità del sistema previdenziale in un'ottica di solidarietà intergenerazionale. Alcune disposizioni della normativa vigente saranno analizzate criticamente alla luce di questa impostazione
L'inclusione lavorativa dei rifugiati fuori dall'accoglienza: snodi, risorse e ambivalenze
Authors: Storato Giulia
Published: September 2024

Questo contributo nasce da una ricerca condotta nella Provincia Autonoma di Trento, volta ad esplorare le traiettorie lavorative di rifugiati e richiedenti asilo al di fuori del sistema di accoglienza. Il mercato del lavoro locale è avido di forza lavoro da impiegare in lavori stagionali e rappresenta un'attrattiva forte, ma fragile. In questa situazione, i rifugiati e i richiedenti asilo fruiscono di alcune risorse del territorio tese a promuovere la loro inclusione lavorativa e sociale. Tuttavia, tali risorse non solo sono diversamente disponibili e accessibili a seconda del capitale sociale e culturale riconosciuto ai migranti, dello status giuridico, dell'esperienza e del luogo di accoglienza, ma presentano anche delle ambivalenze: se da un lato sono "boe" che li sostengono, dall'altro sono "reti" che li intrappolano in una condizione di precarietà, tuttavia non in grado di inibire completamente la loro agency.
The "Credibility Revolution" in Economics: Empirical Economics meets Policymakers and Lawmakers
Authors: Sala Jacopo , Lucifora Claudio
Published: September 2024

Negli ultimi decenni, gli studi di economia applicata hanno sperimentato un cambiamento radicale nelle metodologie empiriche utilizzate, ora ampiamente riconosciuto come la "Rivoluzione della Credibilità". Questo cambiamento verso un'analisi empirica evidence-based ha avuto lo scopo di migliorare l'efficacia degli interventi e aumentare la fiducia del pubblico nel processo decisionale. Questo articolo discute le principali caratt ristiche del nuovo approccio empirico e passa in rassegna i principali studi nella letteratura economica che hanno affrontato una serie di questioni controverse, quali gli effetti economi- ci del salario minimo legale, l'impatto dell'immigrazione sul mercato del lavoro e il ruolo della contrattazione aziendale sulla performance. Sebbene il messaggio principale di questa revisione sia che i decisori politici e gli studiosi delle scienze sociali non possono ignorare l'approccio evidence-based per la valutazione delle politiche pubbliche, rimaniamo scettici riguardo al reale impatto che la nuova ondata di "studi della credibilità" ha avuto sul dibattito pubblico italiano. .

Il saggio analizza il sistema di azionariato dei lavoratori implementato da EssilorLuxottica S.A. e ne mette in evidenza tanto gli elementi di innovazione quanto le contrad- dizioni. Dopo aver ripercorso la storia di questa società e l'evoluzione della partecipazione economica al suo interno, viene esposta la struttura del piano di azionariato Boost, distinguendo il profilo economico-individuale da quello collettivo-partecipativo, al fine di comprendere se e in che misura questa esperienza si discosta dalla tradizionale visione dell'azionariato dei dipendenti come incentivo economico.
Alla ricerca dell'autorità salariale nell'ordinamento italiano
Authors: Pallini Massimo
Published: September 2024

L'Autore esamina il recente orientamento della Corte di Cassazione secondo cui anche la retribuzione minima stabilita dal contratto collettivo di categoria sottoscritto dalle organizzazioni sindacali maggiormente rappresentative è soggetto al sindacato giudiziale di rispetto dei criteri di sufficienza e proporzionalità di cui all'art. 36 Cost. e, ove non confor- me, sostituito con la retribuzione stabilita dal contratto collettivo della categoria "più affine". L'Autore argomenta che tale orientamento giurisprudenziale è idoneo ad assicurare la garan- zia della "sufficienza" della retribuzione quale valore assoluto indipendente dal mercato, ma non anche la "proporzionalità", che è necessariamente una variabile dipendente dal mercato e dai rapporti di forza tra le parti sociali. Queste ultime verrebbero di fatto commissariate dal giudice qualora questo fosse legittimato a sostituire integralmente le previsioni in materia di retribuzione di un contratto collettivo con quelle negoziate per una diversa categoria contrat- tuale. Secondo l'Autore, non solo il giudice, ma anche il legislatore possono ergersi ad auto- rità salariale soltanto per determinare la retribuzione sufficiente, ma non quella proporzionata che è necessariamente determinata dalle parti sociali seppur sopra la soglia della sufficienza. È pertanto auspicabile rafforzare il ruolo di quest'ultime, adottando anche per determinare la retribuzione minima garantita dalla Costituzione il metodo applicato per determinare il mi- nimo imponibile per la contribuzione previdenziale in rapporto alla retribuzione stabilita dal contratto "più applicato" in seno a categorie merceologiche disegnate dal legislatore in corri- spondenza ai codici di classificazione delle imprese ai fini statistici e contributivi.
Ipnosi, suggestione, effetti placebo e nocebo: quale relazione?

Segnali esterni convertiti in impulsi elettrici giungono al cervello e vengono inte-grati nei centri nervosi in frequenze specifiche di oscillazione d'onda. Diventano rappresentazioni simboliche che la mente confronta con le frequenze trasmesse da esperienze precedenti. I simboli, fra cui le parole con il loro significato, vengono trasdotti dal complesso d'onda che trasmette in entrata l'informazione. Il pensiero stesso in sincronia con il complesso d'onda è in grado di trasferire il proprio contenuto al cervello. Il significato attribuito ai simboli/immagini, le sensazioni e le aspettative accomunano i fenomeni.

Stili genitoriali e crimini violenti: uno studio pilota su giovani autori di reato
Authors: Navarra Lucrezia , Battaglia Umberto , Fiscon Camilla , Bertozzo Alessia
Published: September 2024

L'argomento scelto verte sugli stili genitoriali e l'adolescente con tendenza antisociale e su come questi possano influire nella commissione di reati. Per l'analisi di questo costrutto si è provveduto a una ricerca bibliografica sui temi in questione approfondendo in modo particolare il modello ARC, teorizzato da L'Abate, su cui si basa il test (Qsrgp ) utilizzato per misurare le tre scale di percezione genitoriale prese in considerazione: Conduttivo/Creativo; Reattivo/Ripetitivo; Abusivo/ Apatico. Nell'ambito di questa ricerca, lo studio mira a esaminare l'impatto dello stile genitoriale percepito da parte degli adolescenti secondo il modello ARC. Attraverso un'analisi tra adolescenti autori di reato (gruppo sperimentale N = 27) e adolescenti che non hanno agito reati (gruppo di controllo N = 20), si sono valutate le differenze nelle percezioni degli stili genitoriali in due gruppi e come queste variabili interagiscono con i fattori di PCL-YV e SAVRY. Questi risultati suggeriscono che lo stile genitoriale percepito Abusivo/Apatico (A/A) giochi un ruolo in questo contesto, tuttavia ciò richiede ulteriori analisi per poter generalizzare i risultati.

Durand of Saint Pourçain and the actual infinite. A reflection on divine omnipotence (Super Sent., I, 43, 2)
Authors: Ventola Federica
Published: September 2024

In his Commentary on the first Book of Sentences (d. 43, q. 2, red. B), Durand of Saint Pourçain (1270-­1334) poses the question regarding the divine possibility of producing infinite actual things, contributing to the debate about the divine power of creating what is considered to be contradictory (actual infinity). Taking into account the philosophical and theological sources of Durand's Commentary on the issue, the article focuses on his accurate solution to the problem of God's production of actual infinites by analysing some arguments such as that of the production of the individuals of a species, like the souls, as well as the argument of the divisibility of the continuum and the original assumption of the commensurability of infinite quantities. The article shows that for Durand God cannot create an actual infinite, but only a potential one.
Rinascimento & Risorgimento o Risorgimento vs Rinascimento? Una vicenda tutta italiana
Authors: Piaia Gregorio
Published: September 2024

Throughout the 19th century, the Renaissance-Risorgimento relationship was viewed in a twofold contradictory manner: the cultural grandeur of the Renaissan- ce as the premise for the political redemption of the Risorgimento or the Risorgimento as transcending the political and moral decadence of the Renaissance age. The Author expounds the stance of three particularly representative scholars (Vincenzo Gioberti, Bertrando Spaventa, Francesco De Sanctis), pointing out their different perspectives on the role of figures such as Machiavelli and Giordano Bruno. He concludes by po- sing the question as to the need to go beyond this national unification standpoint. In his view, the persisting tendency to see Machiavelli as the symbolic figure of the Renais- sance in Italy is inadequate and he proposes someone like Lorenzo Vallo or Giovanni Pico della Mirandola as an alternative. They are much closer to Erasmus of Rotterdam, the best expression of the Renaissance at a European level.

Authors: Farida Farida , Anggraeni Antika
Published: September 2024

The Government's decision to implement Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) in April 2020 had a broad impact on the production process, distribution, and other operational activities, thereby changing consumer consumption patterns for online transactions. Erto's Beauty Care utilizes the social media application TikTok in promotional activities to support its business. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of promotion effectiveness on consumer purchase intentions for Erto's Beauty Care products using the TikTok application. The type of research used is descriptive quantitative. Based on the results of simple linear regression analysis, the results of the regression coefficient are positive numbers, which means the direction of the X and Y variables is positive, i.e. if the effectiveness of promotion in the TikTok application is higher, the consumer's purchase intention is also higher for Erto's Beauty Care products. From the results of the partial test or t test, it can be concluded that the effectiveness of the promotion has an effect on consumers' purchase intentions for Erto's Beauty Care products.

The Tapalpa forest presents an abundance of pine trees in the juvenile stage ofregeneration and sapling, but this amount progressively decreases in thesuccessive stages, when the trees show larger dimensions and take up more spaceto grow. However, it was unknown how much the loss was and how much itreached the maximum size. The objective was to quantify the grove, the individualspace, the separation between trees and their decrease. The stages were classifiedaccording to the normal diameter and the sites were classified as excessive,recommendable, sufficient and poor density. Frequency distribution, loss, spacing,and distance between trees were calculated using the Hart-Becking formula.During the development cycle, the loss was close to 90 % with a rate of 0.2 to 3%, presenting a cumulative of 60 % in the monte bravo and vardazcal stages. Therecommended class began with 1 300 to 2 700 trees ha⁻¹ in the juvenile phase,with their respective spacing of 2.07 to 2.98 m, while the mature stage culminatedwith 150 trees ha⁻¹ separated at 8.77 m. The distance between trees is consideredan auxiliary tool in thinning operations.

Ten years of data were analyzed including forest fires and climatic data. Theclimatic data came from different sources like CONAGUA, NASA, University ofMemphis and others. Each climatic variable has its own results. A goodcorrelation was observed between forest fires and the affected area, when thenumber of fires exceeds the control capacity of the firefighters the fires becomedisastrous. Catastrophic fires were related to high temperatures, low precipitationand dryness. Best correlations were observed during the dry season especially inApril and May. The relative humidity had low influence and the wind did not haveany influence.
Beyond Conventions: Challenging the Tract House Typology
Authors: Shuaib Sara
Published: September 2024

Under the influence of mass production, suburban tract house developments in the Greater Toronto Area have made standardized assumptions of domesticity within the single-family detached dwelling typology to avoid risk and maximize profit. The conservative design strategies fail to support continuously changing occupational needs over time as there is little consideration for open building design strategies that allow for spatial alteration. Future changes to the fixed layout, structure, and services require complex and costly interventions - creating financial barriers for many. As a result, the needs of the GTA's rapidly evolving demographics are underserved, as homebuyers are required to conform their occupation to the limited range of simplified design variations or move to a new residence in order to meet their evolving needs. This thesis challenges the conventions of the single-family detached dwelling to prove that the outdated housing industry is built-in obsolescence by the market. Through the deployment of mass customization, the design for greater variety suggests that alternative design solutions that support continuous and periodic change do exist. By future-proofing suburban housing, prior to construction, various possibilities of spatial outcomes are unlocked that extend the useful occupation lifespan of the building.
Closing the Digital Divide With Community Tech
Authors: Dunlop Benjamin
Published: September 2024

Citizens' digital access, affordability, and digital ability are now inseparable from fulsome civic life. This study regards community technology initiatives in various forms, sizes, and scopes as resources for urban planners to learn about digital divide solutions. The COVID-19 pandemic's lockdowns highlighted new and existing gaps in government service delivery, renewing a push to ensure digital equity. Research goals aim to understand the roles of non-market initiatives by examining the levels of the digital divide they engage with and what enables them to successfully do so. The regulatory environment of telecommunications in Canada has created an environment where strong oligopolies exist as one of the most detrimental factors to reaching universal, ubiquitous digital inclusion. The study recommends implementing affordability and inclusion metrics into service objectives in recognition of potential oversights or omissions that favor industry.
Planning Radical Imperfection: Generating Meaningful Accessibility in Cultural Spaces Through Lessons of Disability Experience, Cultures, and Histories
Authors: Bochenek Justine
Published: September 2024

This major research paper investigates the experiences of people with disabilities (PWD) within cultural spaces in order to produce a framework for understanding how planners might provide meaningful accessibility within the built environment. The current practices of planners are not meeting the needs of most PWD because planners have not been given the opportunity to learn from disability histories, cultures nor experience. My research, therefore, engaged five participants who all identify as Blind, low-vision or visually impaired in a focus group and semi-structured interview, to gather insights into how the accessibility of cultural spaces generates meaningful inclusion for PWD. The central theoretical framework is "crip theory", an academic lens in which disability is valued as a source of knowledge. My research reveals how a "cripped" understanding of access, paired with the lived experiences of PWD in accessing cultural spaces, can be applied to improve the way planners engage with accessibility.
Characterization of MICAL1-Mediated Oxidation of Cdc42
Authors: Hurst Mackenzie
Published: September 2024

Rho GTPases are critically important and centrally positioned regulators of the actomyosin cytoskeleton. By influencing the organization and architecture of the cytoskeleton, Rho proteins play prominent roles in many cellular processes including adhesion, migration, intra-cellular transportation, and proliferation. Relative to other post-translational modifications (PTMs) such as lipidation or phosphorylation that have been extensively characterized, protein oxidation is a regulatory PTM that has been poorly studied. Protein oxidation primarily occurs from the reaction of reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), with amino acid side chain thiols on cysteine (Cys) and methionine (Met) residues. The molecule interacting with CasL protein 1 (MICAL1) is a monooxygenase enzyme that produces diffusible H2O2 and influences F-actin disassembly. Cdc42 has been found to be a target of MICAL1 oxidation, and this thesis will examine how oxidation on conserved cysteine residues is affected by this monooxygenase enzyme. Furthermore, this thesis will characterize the use of a bifunctional sulfenic acid probe consisting of two bicyclo[6.1.0]nonyne (BCN) moieties linked with a short ethylenediamine linker (BCN-E-BCN) that will detect sulfenylated proteins in cultured cells and in vitro.
Bridging Chasms: An Interactive Projection Mapping Installation for Cross-Cultural Exchange of Information
Authors: Elmeligy Aya
Published: September 2024

In the past decade, digital media has been incorporated into our day-to-day tasks, communication, and interactions. Digital technology has allowed for instant one-way and two-way communication across vast spaces. Research findings showed how versatile digital media and emerging technologies could be when creating an experience or communicating a narrative. This paper aims to explore how framing digital media, particularly interactive projection mapping, within a technology-reliant artwork context could result in creating a medium for a transnational discourse between two different geographical locations separated by space, culture, and language. A media art installation is curated to merge the physical space with the digital realm using projection mapping, CNC milling, and visual programming. The installation is designed to be interactive in real-time across space. In the context of the pilot project, created findings indicate that it is possible to use media (audio and visual) as a dynamic communication tool that can transcend language barriers. Based on participant feedback, I conclude with design recommendations and future directions for the research.
Canadian Experience Wanted: A Critical Discourse Analysis of Media Representation of Skilled Immigrants
Authors: Minta Marta
Published: September 2024

This MRP examines whether and how Canadian English electronic press media represents what is known as 'Canadian experience'. Although Canada is considered an immigrant welcoming country, it has been criticized for its poor recognition of immigrant skills and work experience. The media's portrayal of skilled newcomers reveals underlying social attitudes towards immigrants; this is reflected in contemporary immigration policies and labour market practices, which affect skilled immigrants' integration into Canadian society. Utilizing Critical Discourse Analysis, this study traces the representations of Canadian experience in the national electronic newsprint media, The Globe and Mail, The Toronto Star, and one regional source, the Toronto Sun between 2015-2022. The analysis of the articles reveals how certain skilled immigrants continue to be unfavourably represented by media reporting. The indirect marginalizing discourses embedded within the language of the articles has implications for skilled immigrants in Canada.
Unsupervised Domain Adaptation With Boundary-Aware GAN for Medical Image Segmentation
Authors: Vo Thong
Published: September 2024

Domain Adaptation is a technique to address the lack of massive amounts of labeled data in different application domains. Unsupervised domain adaptation is the process of adapting a model to an unseen target dataset using solely labeled source data and unlabeled target domain data. While many image-space domain adaptation methods have been proposed to capture pixel-level domain shift, such techniques may fail to maintain detailed information for the segmentation task. In the case of biomedical images, fine details such as blood vessels or boundaries between regions can be blurred during the image transformation operations between domains. In this work, we propose a model that adapts between domains using cycle-consistent loss while maintaining edge information of the original images by enforcing an edge-based loss during the adaptation process. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm by comparing it to other approaches on two biomedical image datasets. For the multi-modality eye fundus vessels segmentation datasets, we achieve a 3.1% increment in the Dice score when compared to the state-of-the-art and ∼7.02% increment compared to a vanilla CycleGAN implementation. For the CT/MRI multi-modality whole heart segmentation dataset, we achieve a 13% increment in Dice score when compared to the state-of-the-art and ∼6% increment compared to a vanilla CycleGAN implementation.
