Potato starch nanocrystal preparation via supercritical carbon dioxide pretreatment combined with enzymatic hydrolysis
Authors: Nlandu Hervé M. , Chorfa Nasima , Bekacemi Khaled , Hamoudi Safia
Published: November 2021

In this work, starch nanocrystals were successfully produced from downgraded potatoes using enzymatic hydrolysis combined with a supercritical carbon dioxide pretreatment to improve the accessibility of the enzyme to the starches. Enzymatic hydrolysis was carried out using the pullulanase enzyme at a temperature of 60 °C and a pH of 4. Following hydrolysis, the starch nanoparticles were recovered via precipitation and recrystallization. Comparative characterization of the native, supercritical carbon dioxide-pretreated, and hydrolyzed-recrystallized starch materials was conducted via transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. The scanning electron microscopy images revealed alterations, e.g., layered strips, on the surface of the potato starch granules after the supercritical carbon dioxide pretreatment. The transmission electron microscopy images revealed that spherical nanostructures from 80 nm to 150 nm were successfully produced. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectra displayed several absorption bands corresponding to the molecular structure of starches. The X-ray diffractograms exhibited a typical B-type scattering pattern for all the samples. In addition, it was found that the crystallinity of the potato starch nanoparticles was considerably increased compared with native starch.
Paradigm of passive constructions in the Ukrainian translation of the Bible by Filaret (Mykhailo Denysenko)
Authors:   National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy, Lavrinets Оlena
Published: November 2021

This paper investigates how passive constructions are used in Filaret’s translation of the Bible from Standard Russian (Russian Synod’s translation, 2002) into Ukrainian, not from biblical languages, e.g., Hebrew, Aramaic, and Koine Greek. It specifically argues the nuclear position of the Ukrainian passive constructions paradigm formed by passive constructions with predicative participles in -nyi, -tyi, circumnuclear position of constructions with predicative forms in -no, -to, and peripheral position of constructions with passive verbs in -sia. Ranking of passive constructions with predicative participles over constructions with forms in -no, -to neutralizes syntactical peculiarities of Ukrainian, i.e., a focus on predicativity in finite verb forms and forms in -no, -to. The peripheral status of passive verbs in -sia shows a positive tendency for Filaret’s translation of the Holy Writ to distance from the Russian translation succeeded to passive constructions with predicative participles from Old Church Slavonic. The Ukrainian translation is often marked by active constructions (a mononuclear or two-member sentence) which are the authentical feature of the Ukrainian syntax. Simultaneous synonymous usage of active and passive constructions, particularly in the same environments, however, is largely triggered by a lack of distinction between syntactical peculiarities of Ukrainian and Russian, and, therefore, provides a syntactical variety. In the Ukrainian translation, usage of active constructions and different types of passive forms almost always intersects with the Russian Synod’s version. Keywords: Ukrainian translation of the Bible, paradigm of passive constructions, constructions with predicative forms in -no, -tо, constructions with predicative participles in -nyi, -tyj, sentences with passive verbs in -sia.
Modern trends in the development of higher education terminology
Authors:   West Ukrainian National University, Shkitska Іryna
Published: November 2021

This article examines factors of the terminological system change in the Ukrainian educational discourse. The innovations in higher education terminology are caused by strengthening of globalization processes and development of the newest information technologies, e.g., 1) emergence of new forms of education and educational activities; 2) changes in the accreditation procedure of educational programs; 3) increased attention toward issues of academic integrity and the quality of educational services; 4) importance of the practical component in educational activities; 5) fixation of neologisms in legislative documentation; 6) regulating of activities of higher educational institutions; 7) the desire of educational institutions to attract more applicants by updating names of educational programs, specialties, academic disciplines, and structural units; 8) positive coverage of educational institutions’ activities on social media and the Internet. Increasing number of Anglicisms for concepts of educational activity is explained due to the dominance of English in world’s educational and scientific spheres. The author states a different degree of adoption of terms-anglicisms that function in educational discourse, which is reflected in their graphic and phonetic variance. Semantic analysis of borrowed terms (neologisms) considers variability in their structure and determines semantic groups of abbreviations based on terms of a relatively high frequency in modern educational discourse. Keywords: term, terminoelement, globalization, internationalization of education, term-anglicism, in formation society.

Authors: AYKIN YIĞMAN Zeynep , KARAAHMET Özgür Zeliha , UMAY Ebru , AVŞAR ERTÜRK Fatma , GÜVEN Bülent
Published: November 2021

Aim: In this study, we aimed to compare the effect of aerobic exercise programs on patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and healthy controls, and to show that home exercise programs can be as effective as supervised exercise programs.
Materials and Methods: Eighty participants were included in this study and were divided into groups as the home-exercise group (outpatient), supervised exercise group (inpatient), and healthy controls. A 6-weeks aerobic exercise program was given to all participants. Before and after the exercise program, 6-minute Walking Test (6MWT), Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Extended Disability Scale (EDSS), Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test (CPET), and MS Quality of Life (MSQoL-54) were applied to participants.
Results: When 6MWT and CPET data were evaluated, it was observed that the patient and control groups benefited from the exercise program. There was a significant improvement after treatment in the 6MWT, BBS, FSS, MSQoL-54, and KPET data of both the outpatient and inpatient groups, and there was no difference between the groups when the rates of change were compared.
Conclusion: We have observed that the home-based exercise program is as effective as the supervised exercise program. We think that the home program should be recommended first when planning the exercise program in PwMS in terms of cost, effectiveness, and accessibility.
The Role of Platelet Indices in Predicting Short-Term Mortality in Elderly Patients with Pulmonary Embolism
Authors: ÖZDEMİR Serdar , ALGIN Abdullah
Published: November 2021

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the role of platelet count, mean platelet volume (MPV), plateletcrit, platelet distribution width (PDW), platelet mass index (PMI), and MPV-to-platelet count ratio (MPR) in predicting short-term mortality in patients aged 65 and over with pulmonary embolism.
Methods: This retrospective, observational, cohort study included corrected pulmonary embolism patients. Demographics, clinical characteristics, and platelet indices and the data of all-cause mortality within 30 days after admission were noted. The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis and multivariate analysis was performed to determine the discriminative ability of the scores.
Results: A final analysis of 128 patients was performed. The mortality rate was 21.8%. There was no significant relationship in the multivariate analysis between mortality and platelet indices (Mann-Whitney U test). Area under curves of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, PMI, MPR, plateletcrit, platelet count, and MPV are 0.501, 0.640, 0.626, 0.642, 0.633, and 0.532, respectively.
Conclusion
As a conclusion based on results of our simple, platelet indices could not predict short-term mortality in elderly patients with pulmonary embolism.
Graphic Communities: Comics as Visual and Virtual Resources for Self and Collective Care
Authors: Mazowita Amy
Published: November 2021

This commentary discusses the ways in which print and Instagram-based comics are used to represent the lived experiences of mental illness. Beginning with a brief overview of mental health-focused comic strips and graphic memoirs and turning to a discussion of the mental illness comics of Instagram, the article outlines how comics are being used as platforms for self and collective care. Instead of prioritizing a visual/discourse analysis of each web comic, this piece focuses on the comment threads of each Instagram post and examines the conversations which develop amongst users. By doing so, this essay begins a critical discussion of the ways in which comics may be used as mental health resources. While grounded in a discussion of Covid-19-related increases to mental illness symptoms, this piece is also interested in how comics may be used as therapeutic supports in a post-pandemic world.
Covid-19, Congregational Worship, and Contestation over 'Correct' Islam in South Africa
Authors: Vahed Goolam
Published: November 2021

In response to the global Coronavirus pandemic, South African President, Cyril Ramaphosa declared a national lockdown on March 26, 2020, which suspended, among other things, congregational worship. A group of Muslims made an urgent court application for permission to pray in mosques, which was dismissed on April 30, 2020, with the judiciary weighing in on the side of the public health good. This struggle over congregational prayers brought into the open, differences among Muslims in South Africa that have been simmering for several decades and raised questions as to how to balance the post-apartheid Constitution's accommodation of religious practices with the needs of a secular state1. Conversely, what should Muslims do when they are required to follow the secular rules of a non-Muslim country that contradict their obligations to the tenets of their faith? The court case underlined the deep divides amongst Muslims and the changing structures of authority. In the absence of a central doctrinal authority the Ulama terrain is highly competitive and fraught with antagonistic doctrinal differences. It remains to be seen whether these divisions will boil over into physical confrontation among Muslims, and, with trust in the state dissipating, how Muslims will manage their relationship with the secular state.
Feminist Pandemic Pedagogies: Podcasting and the Study of Religion
Authors: Scharnick-Udemans Lee-Shae S.
Published: November 2021

In this article I will explore and share my pedagogical practices and experiences as a feminist scholar of religion, within the context of a voluntary postgraduate reading group, during the first nine months of the Covid-19 pandemic. The article is structured in two parts. The first part offers a reflection of the teaching approaches that inspired and enabled the production of a podcast about the study of religion from the perspective of black African students and scholars of religion. The second part conceptualizes the production of a podcast as a feminist pedagogical experiment and reflects on this process alongside feminist pedagogical principles. While the orientation of this article is tentative and reflexive, it advances the argument that because of the commitment to social justice that is inherent to feminist approaches to scholarship and pedagogy, feminist scholars are generally poised to work within the contexts of crisis. Therefore, within the context of the pandemic, feminist approaches to teaching and learning in the study of religion may yield insights that can contribute to the continued development of sustainable pedagogies that honor the fraught nature of these times for both scholars and students.

Schradera involucrata is the correct name for Spermacoce scandens (Rubiaceae)
Authors: Delprete Piero G. , Kirkbride, Jr. Joseph H.
Published: November 2021

In a recent article, the new combination Schradera scandens (Aubl.) Delprete was proposed. This binomial is predated by S. scandens Willd., which makes Delprete’s new combination a later homonym and thus illegitimate. Therefore, S. involucrata (Sw.) K. Schum. is accepted as the correct name to be used for this species.
Polyploidy and genome size variation in Phlox nana (Polemoniaceae) from the Pecos plains of New Mexico and the Davis Mountains of West Texas
Authors: Ladner Jamie , Mayfield Mark H. , Prather L. Alan , Ferguson Carolyn J.
Published: November 2021

Polyploidy is conspicuous in the genus Phlox, and some species exhibit variation in ploidy levels, or cytotypic variation. Diploid, tetraploid and hexaploid popula-tions of P. nana occur across parts of the species distribution in the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. A recent study highlighted two areas for which ploidy level inferences were challenging: a population on the Pecos Plains of New Mexico (“Caprock”) and the Davis Mountains region of West Texas. Plants in these areas were sampled and chromosome counts and flow cytometry methods were used to assess ploidy levels and genome sizes. Homoploid variation in ge-nome size was unambiguously documented: the genome size of tetraploid plants from the Davis Mountains was significantly larger than that of plants from Caprock. The general condition of larger genome sizes for plants in the Davis Mountains explains previous difficulty in determining ploidy levels within the region. Most plants at the Caprock population appeared to be tetraploid (2n=28), but chromosome counts revealed variants, including some putative pentaploids. Within the Davis Mountains region, both diploid (2n=14) and tetraploid (2n=28) cytotypes were documented, with a parapatric distribution. Overall, this study clarifies patterns of cytotypic diversity in P. nana, highlights an example of infraspecific, homoploid genome size variation, and contributes to a framework for ongoing evolutionary investigation in this study system.
The worldwide significance of karyotypic variation in Rosa acicularis (Rosaceae)
Authors: Lewis Walter H. , Elvin-Lewis Memory
Published: November 2021

Evidence is provided which shows that there is a wider variation in karyotypes of Rosa acicularis subspecies seen within their ranges in North America (Rosa acicularis Lindl. subsp. sayi (Schwein.) W.H. Lewis and the Eurasian species (Rosa acicularis Lindl. subsp. acicularis) than was originally presumed. It is proposed that the evolution and distribution of these karyotypes into two distinct subspecies occurred following the closure of the Turgai strait when the climate radically changed within both continents. Their distributions are similar in that they are not only dependent upon the latitudes where they are found but on the ecology and climate that supports their growth. Parallel ethnobotanical and medicinal uses are also evident as is their value in horticulture, where especially in North America their genes for cold hardiness are being exploited. Concerns regarding how global warming may affect these various karyotypes are also discussed.
Conservation assessment of Playa Delfín Rainforest Reserve and Research Station, Costa Rica
Authors: Jones Ronald L. , Jiménez-Saa Humberto
Published: November 2021

Playa Delfín is located in southwestern Costa Rica on the Golfo Dulce coast across from the Osa Peninsula, and occupies an area of 115 ha with elevations ranging up to 145 m. The reserve is privately owned by Patrick and Anne Weston, and was purchased in 1988 to protect one of the last remaining tracts of primary forest in the region. A two-week botanical survey in 2011 aimed at assessing the conservation value of the site resulted in the documentation of 138 taxa of chiefly woody plants. Of these 101 were trees, 24 were shrubs, 6 were lianas, and 7 were herbs. Included in the list are twelve species considered to be rare or of restricted ranges, as well as three species representing first reports for the Osa Peninsula/Golfo Dulce region. Four major habitats are described along with typical species associated with each community. Primary forest occurred in the uplands and stream corridors while the lowland section was more disturbed but still contained a number of large trees. Five non-native species were documented in the lowlands but only Gmelina arborea was particularly invasive. These results suggest that a rich flora occurs at Playa Delfín, and, as it was also known to harbor a rich fauna, provides additional evidence of the high conservation value of the site. Already a part of Costa Rica’s private forest reserve system, Playa Delfín received additional government protection as a result of this and other studies documenting the biological resources at the reserve.

Studies have identified the central region of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest as an area of high biodiversity and endemism. Strong anthropogenic pressure has made protected areas in Rio de Janeiro State important sites for biodiversity conservation as they contain many areas of extreme biological importance. We sought to document and qualitatively describe the arboreal species composition of the Tinguá Biological Reserve by examining the collection data of the herbaria at the Instituto de Pesquisas Jardim Botânico do Rio de Janeiro (RB) and the Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro (RBR). The survey identified 563 species belonging to 249 genera and 77 families, including 13 new occurrences for Rio de Janeiro State, 34 endemic species for the state, 17 vulnerable species, 15 endangered species, and one critically endangered species. Our results demonstrate the importance of this environmental protection area to the conservation of many plant populations and identified the region as harboring high tree diversity—thus reinforcing its role as an important forest remnant in a fragmented landscape within a threatened biome.

Authors: Gumenyuk E. G.
Published: November 2021

166 patient (average age 44,820,40) with dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) during premenopause were followed up. They were found to have hyperplasia of the endometrium of different forms. Hormonal therapy with different preparations (norcolut, orgametril, demulen, oxyprogesteron-capronat) was used. The patients with DUB during the premenopause may have different levels of gonadotropic and steroid hormones both on the background of DUB and during their treatment. These changes depend on a number of causes: age peculiarities, starting condition of hormonal homeostasis and mechanism of therapy action. We came to the conclusion that effectiveness of the treatment had not depended essentially on the patients' age, dynamics of peptid and steroid hormones level and type of the hormonal therapy to be used.

Complete clinical details, histopathological evaluation and immunohistochemistry aid in arriving at correct diagnosis. Recognizing this entity is important as it carries good prognosis.
Yeni Savaşlar ve Çocuk Askerler
Authors: SAĞIROĞLU Canan
Published: November 2021

Yeni savaşlar kavramı, Soğuk Savaş sonrası dönemin değişen özellikleri doğrultusunda ortaya çıkmıştır ve ilk olarak Mary Kaldor tarafından 1999 yılında kullanılmıştır. Geleneksel savaşlardan farklı olarak daha az maliyetle daha fazla kazanç elde etme hedefleri doğrultusunda yeni savaşların aktörlerinin çeşitli araçlar/yöntemler geliştirdikleri görülmektedir. Özellikle devlet dışı aktörler, hukuki anlamda bağlayıcı olabilecekleri yasaların eksikliğinden faydalanarak savaş suçu işlemektedirler. Geleneksel savaşlarda hukuken “korunan” statüsünde olan çocuklar, yeni savaşlarda devlet dışı aktörlerin doğrudan şiddetine/araçsallaştırılmasına maruz kalmışlardır. Çocuklar, devlet ve devlet dışı aktörlerin hedefleri doğrultusunda savaşlarda bazen bir savaşçı bazen de arka cephede hizmet personeli olarak kullanılmaktadır. Savaşlarda cephede ve cephe arkasında çalıştırılan veya görevlendirilen çocuklar, çocuk askerler olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Tarihsel süreçte çocukların savaşlarda yer alması ilk defa yeni savaşlarda ortaya çıkmış bir olgu değildir. Fakat hukuki olarak çocuk ve çocuk asker kavramlarının tanımlanması yirminci yüzyılda gerçekleşmiştir. Böylece savaşın değişen özellikleri itibariyle kavramsal ve hukuksal açıdan çocuk askerler yeni savaşların bir aracı haline gelmiştir. Çocuk askerler, yeni savaşların aktörleri için, maliyeti düşük ve gerek personel açığını gidermek gerekse de ideolojik hedeflerini gerçekleştirmek açısından kullanım alanı geniş bir savaş aracı haline gelmiştir. Çalışma çocuk askerlerin kullanılmasını yeni savaşlar bağlamında değerlendirmektedir.
Empresas recuperadas por cooperativas
Authors: Feser M. Eleonora
Published: November 2021

La recuperación de empresas por cooperativas de trabajo ha sido un fenómeno que se ha forjado no solo desde la práctica sino también por la normativa que atraviesa parte de estos procesos. En el presente trabajo se analiza cómo ha sido este camino desde lo legal, haciendo foco en el momento histórico en el que aparecen las empresas recuperadas por sus trabajadores (ERTs) en la ley de concursos y quiebras y su exigencia de conformarse bajo la figura de cooperativa de trabajo. También se realizará un mapeo a nivel nacional, provincial y municipal de toda la normativa donde se menciona a las empresas recuperadas, categorizándola de manera tal de permitir un análisis. Finalmente se abordarán otras particularidades a nivel regulación.

Published: November 2021

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a combination of several different metabolic disorders and considered one of the major public health problems worldwide. The underlying causes of MetS include being overweight and obesity, physical inactivity, and genetic factors. We aimed to examine the alterations in the levels of biomarkers of oxidative stress, activities of antioxidant defense enzymes, and metal contents of the liver in rats with MetS. Rats in control and MetS groups were fed with standard rat chow-drinking water and standard rat chow - 32% sucrose solution (instead of drinking water) ad libitum for 16 weeks, respectively. Following the confirmation of MetS, antioxidant enzyme activities and malondialdehyde (MDA), 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT), phospho-Akt (pSer473) levels were measured in the homogenates of the liver. Distributions of elements in the liver were also analyzed. The stained hepatic tissue slides were examined by light microscopy. The activities of catalase and glutathione-S-transferase were significantly decreased in MetS-group (about 15% and 29%, respectively) compared to the control group, while the glutathione reductase activity and MDA and 3-NT levels were significantly increased (as the levels of 78%, 26%, and 67%, respectively) (p<0.05). The hepatocytes in the MetS group showed mild diffuse microvesicular steatosis. Furthermore, Cu, Fe, and Mn levels were significantly high in MetS-group while Zn level was significantly low compared to the control group. Our results showed increased oxidative stress, impaired antioxidant defense enzyme activities, and altered metals’ metabolisms which may have an important role in the pathogenesis of MetS.
Shibboleths of Grief: Paul Muldoon’s “The Triumph”
Authors: Pietrzak Wit
Published: November 2021

The essay explores Paul Muldoon’s elegy for the fellow Northern Irish poet Ciaran Carson with a view to showing that “The Triumph” seeks to evoke a ground where political, cultural and religious polarities are destabilized. As the various intertextual allusions in the poem are traced, it is argued that Muldoon seeks to revise the notion of the Irish shibboleths that, as the poem puts it, “are meant to trip you up.” In lieu of this linguistic and political slipperiness, “The Triumph” situates Carson’s protean invocations of Belfast and traditional Irish music as the new shibboleths of collectivity.
Performing More-Than-Human Corporeal Connections in Kiki Smith’s Sculpture
Authors: Stępień Justyna
Published: November 2021

The article examines work by contemporary American artist Kiki Smith, who proposes a future in which human and nonhuman bodily borders merge. The artist’s contribution to the more-than-human artistic entanglements is juxtaposed with Joseph Beuys’s artistic manifesto from 1974 which proposes, among other things, an attempt to get outside of the represented human towards the asignified ahuman. In Kiki’s sculpture, both human and nonhuman animals undergo constant morphogenesis, becoming hybrid forms far beyond the human-social paradigm, implying that the human and nonhuman binary, due to the exchange of affective entanglements, is no longer valid in the heyday of techno-scientific development. The analyzed work shows that both human and nonhuman bodies are raw materials not separated from one another but always interconnected with the world and its ongoing material processes. Thus, the article emphasizes that it is only through the transgression of the human and nonhuman border that one can acknowledge the more ethical and political ways of cooperation needed for the appreciation of the multispecies dimension of our world and its survival.
The Gospel of Divine Mercy in King Lear
Authors: Grzegorzewska Małgorzata
Published: November 2021

The paper discusses Shakespeare’s preoccupation with the Christian notions of divine love, forgiveness and justice in The Tragedy of King Lear. In my reading I employ Jean-Luc Marion’s phenomenological reflection on the givenness of love and Hans-Urs von Balthasar’s theology of Paschal mystery. I take issue with the Marxist and existentialist interpretations of Shakespeare’s tragedy which prevailed in the second half of the 20th century. My aim is not a simple recuperation of the “redemptionism” of the play, but an in-depth consideration of Christian allusions in the play which may tie love and forgiveness to justice and throw light on the ending of King Lear.

Published: November 2021

The main goal of this study was to improve the results of therapy in patients with chronic wounds on the foot in diabetics (I-II degree according to Wagner's classification) using histoequivalent bioplastic material «G-derm».

Materials and methods. The study included 72 patients. The comparison group included 35 patients who underwent standard treatment with hydrocolloid dressings. The main group consisted of 37 patients. For them, in addition to standard treatment, the histoequivalent-bioplastic material «G-derm» was used. The patients' condition was assessed in dynamics on the 1st, 10th, 30th days from the start of treatment.

Results. By the 30th day, the complete epithelialization was registered in 12 (16.7%) patients. The main group included 8 (21.6%) cases, and the control group – 4 (11.4%). The unsatisfactory epithelialization (healing less than a quarter of the initial area) by the 30th day of treatment was in 14 (19.4%) patients: in the main group – in 4 (10.9%) patients, in the comparison group – in 10 (28.5%) of patients. The remaining 25 (67.6%) patients in the main group and 21 (60%) participants in the comparison group had satisfactory epithelialization results by the 30th day of treatment.

Conclusion. The results of this study show the effectiveness of using histoequivalent bioplastic material G-derm in local treatment of chronic wounds in patients with neuropathic diabetes in combination with standard therapies.The use of histoequivalent-bioplastic material in patients with diabetes leads to faster regeneration of the wound as well as increases the cases of complete epithelialization.
