TRANSFORMATION OF THE FEMALE DETECTIVE IMAGE IN THE19thAND 20thCENTURIES ENGLISH FEMALE DETECTIVE PROSE
Authors: Devdiuk Ivanna , Huliak Tetiana
Published: November 2022

The article deals with the peculiarities of the image of the female detective in the English female detective prose of the 19thand 20thcenturies. We have traced the changes in theportrayal of the female detective in English literature and singled out the factors which influenced them. First of all, every writer’s experience and life conditions make an impact on the construction of their images. It is obvious that S.Hopley couldn’t but work secretly as her creator C.Crowe wrote detective using the other name. It was the trend of the nineteenth century. In the first part of the twentieth century, women started to obtain different professions alongside men. A.Christie and D.Sayers had an opportunity to be not only writers but even theoreticians of the genre. That is why Miss Marple and H.Vane were able to show their achievements together with men. And the second part of the twentieth century presented women with total freedom. So, we can read about Sharon McCone who is a successful private detective. The second important fact is the situation in the society which for sure is reflected in the realistic literary works and can be easily noticed in the behaviour of the characters. And the last efficient thing is the plot of the story because it dictates the actions which sometimes do not depend on the personality.The article analyzes the characteristic features of the female detectives belonging to three stages of detective development: detective classics(until the early twentieth century), detective modernism(1910–the 1970s), and detective postmodernism(after the1970s).The female detective of detective classics is clever and kind but lacks self-confidence and support. Detectivemodernism shows us an intelligent, smart, very brave, and attentive detective. The woman detective of the postmodern period is smart, courageous, emotional, and hard-working. Thus, we have suggested the canonic image of the female detective. She has a sharp mind, a very high level of knowledge, a sense of responsibility, a strong wish to work, and a little time for her personal life. This woman is pretty, careful, witty, and ready to investigate at any time

Do family-controlled and financially healthy firms manage their reported earnings? Evidence from Indonesia
Authors: Joko Pramono Agus , Zulhawati Zulhawati , Rusmin Rusmin , Wahyu Astami Emita
Published: November 2022

This paper examines whether family-controlled and financially healthy firms practice earnings management. The data collection focuses on non-financial firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the fiscal year 2017–2019. Family and financially healthy firms are key predictor variables for predicting earnings management behavior. Jones’s (1991) modified cross-sectional model measures discretionary accruals (the earnings management indicator). This study reveals a negative relationship between family entities and earnings management practices, suggesting that family-controlled firms are more likely to report a higher quality of earnings. This study also documents that family entities with financial difficulties have more incentive to practice earnings management. Additionally, the study indicates that the involvement of a family member in executive positions leads to lower financial reporting quality. Finally, this study reports a nonlinearity association between family share ownership and the magnitude of earnings management. The study’s findings may assist policymakers in considering the costs and benefits associated with various levels of ownership concentration, especially in the hands of family members.

Bitcoin, Gold, the Indonesian Stock Market, and Exchange Rate: GARCH Volatility Analysis
Authors: Siauwijaya Rahmat , Sanjung Dewi
Published: November 2022

Bitcoin has gained popularity as an investment asset because of its similarity to gold, which sparked the idea that bitcoin can be used as a hedging instrument to the fiat currency exchange rate. This paper aims to analyze bitcoin's volatility and return to gauge its feasibility as an investment asset, and hedging tool for the USD-IDR exchange rate with the GARCH and EGARCH models. With data on the daily closing price of bitcoin, gold, IDX composite index, and USD-IDR exchange rate from January 1, 2016, to December 31, 2020, the study attempts to find factors affecting bitcoin returns with the independent variables of bitcoin’s price, gold, and USD-IDR exchange rate by estimating their correlation. Following the analysis, this study shows that the volatility of USD-IDR exchange rates negatively influences bitcoin returns, making it a relatively safe investment asset. Additionally, the study found that bitcoin returns are not affected by the variables of gold price and the IDX composite index. However, we found that the USD-IDR exchange rate significantly affects bitcoin returns, while gold price and bitcoin’s price does not significantly affect bitcoin returns. Further, the analysis found that bitcoin is unsuitable for hedging due to its sensitivity to asymmetric shocks.

Authors: Listianti Feny
Published: November 2022

The research aimed to understand the process of sign consumption behind ornamental plant collection activities, fetishism towards plant aesthetics, and the hyperreality of ornamental plant collection lifestyle mediated by social media. The nurturing plants’ activity initially aimed to improve the fresh air quality and create a more beautiful environment that had now shifted to showing social status due to the emerging trend during the pandemic. A qualitative approach with multimodal analysis, purposive sampling, and constructivism paradigm was implemented. Three Instagram accounts of ornamental plant collectors were analyzed and interpreted through text, images, and videos. After that, the researcher constructed the finding into themes by comparing selected Instagram accounts to ensure reliability and validity. The results show that the value of plants is now shifting into a lifestyle where they are used as objects that should be shown to others. Social media boosts this ornamental plant collection trend widespread, creating hyperreality and making collectors trapped in fetishism. Academically, this research emphasizes Instagram’s role in spreading sign consumption, fetishism, hyperreality, and consumerism massively. Further research can be done by using the interview method with plant collectors to find out their direct experience. The practical implication of the research is to open the horizon of Indonesian people to avoid the trap of lifestyle trends. Another practical implication is for Financial Consultants/Advisors/Planners and Social Movement organizations to educate the public to spend money wisely and create new programs to avoid the consumerism trap even more.

The research discussed the welfare of Indonesian musicians during the COVID-19 outbreak. Since the outbreak in March 2020, the Indonesian government had implemented large-scale social restrictions in major cities, aiming to minimize the spread of the disease. Restrictions included the temporary termination of onsite events (concerts and festivals) and a shift from offline to online education, including music classes. With few references provided about Indonesian musicians’ welfare, it intended to present valid data to comprehend better the phenomena that would expectantly lead to appropriate and targeted support. From September to October 2020, an online survey of musicians across Indonesia to identify the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their overall welfare was done. The 581 respondents from all provinces of Indonesia participated in this survey. The respondents included 54% full-time musicians and 46% part-time musicians. The researchers divided the identified impacts into two categories: direct and indirect impacts, encompassing various aspects, including changes in mental health, working platforms, and financial issues. The survey indicates that 71,6% of respondents have experienced changes in their daily life patterns. Online working methods increase from 8,3% to 72,5%, whereas offline methods decrease from 92,4% to 17,6%. Aside from those changes, respondents with income below one million rupiahs increase sharply from 9% (before the pandemic) to 47% (after the pandemic). Utilizing Chi-square independence tests on SPSS v. 26, this descriptive study finds a significant association between working status (full-time or part-time musicians) and their responses to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their lives.

Bu çalışmada, dijital refah devletlerinin sosyal koruma sistemlerince planlanıp uygulanan sosyal yardım ve hizmetlerin dijitalleştirilmesinin ortaya çıkardığı sonuçlar, insan hakları bağlamında değerlendirilmektedir. Çalışmada, dijital refah devletlerinin ayırt edici özelliklerine değinildikten sonra, sosyal yardım ve hizmetlerin dijitalleştirilmesinin temelinde yatan finansal hedeflerin görünür kılınmasına çalışılmaktadır. Böylece, dijital refah devletlerinde insan haklarının korunması ve sosyal adaletin sağlanması idealinden, finansal hizmet sağlayıcısı kurumların yararı uğruna vazgeçilip geçilmediği sorusuna yanıt aranmaya çalışılmaktadır. Çalışmanın sonunda, çağımız bilgi toplumlarının içinde yer aldığı refah devletlerinin dijital dönüşümünün, sosyal yardım ve hizmetler aracılığıyla aşırı yoksulların dahi finansal hizmetlerle ilişkilendirilerek, finansal sermayenin korunmasına hizmet edecek türde bir dönüşüm olmaması, aksine Toplum 5.0 hedefleriyle örtüşen bir refah toplumunda her bir kişinin insan haklarının korunmasına ve en nihayetinde sosyal adaletin sağlanmasına katkı sunması gereğinin altı çizilmektedir.
OSMANLI TAHRİRLERİNDEN MODERN AİLE ARAŞTIRMALARINA “HANE” KAVRAMI ÜZERİNE NOTLAR
Authors: AKSU KILIÇ Leyla , AYAN Dursun
Published: November 2022

Bazı sözcüklerin zamanla kavram haline gelmeleri, toplum hayatının onlara kazandırdığı sosyo-lengüistik bir işlevdir. Bazı kavramlar ise tarih içinde hayatlarını sürdürürken yanlarına başka sözcük ve kavramlar alarak yeni anlam ve bilgi alanları oluştururlar. Bu açıdan bakıldığında “hane” kavramının da ilginç bir evrim ve yolculuk yaşadığı düşünülmektedir. Çünkü Türklerin Farsçadan aldığı hane kavramı, Osmanlı ve Cumhuriyet döneminde Türkçeden, Arapçadan ve Fransızcadan sözcüklerle birleşerek yeni kavramlar oluşturmuştur.

Bu çalışmada tarihi süreç içinde Osmanlı’da nüfus, tapu ve vergi kayıtlarında karşımıza çıkan hane kavramının Türkiye Cumhuriyeti döneminde de nüfus ve aile araştırmalarında kendini “nasıl” gösterdiği üzerinde durulmuştur. Aslında sosyoloji-tarih bağlamında bir mesken biriminin adı olan hane, Osmanlı vilayetlerinde tapu, nüfus, vergi ve askerlik kayıt defterlerindeki evdir. Alınacak vergi miktarı ve asker sayısı hane üzerinden belirlenmekte ve kayıtlar erkekler üzerinden tutulmaktadır. Hanede yaşayanlara “hanehalkı” denilmektedir. Bu yönüyle hane aynı zamanda döneminin bir sosyal politika ve maliye kavramıdır. Osmanlı araştırmacıları bu kayıtlardan faydalanarak bir hanede kaç kişinin yaşadığını ortalama olarak belirlemek istemişlerdir. Çünkü Osmanlı aile araştırmaları açısından önemli bir bilgi olan “bir yerleşimin nüfusunu öğrenmek” mümkün olacaktır. Bu sebeple çalışmamızda Osmanlı’dan günümüze “hane” kavramının kayıtlardaki izleri takip edilerek hem sosyolojik hem de tarihî analizi yapılmaya çalışılacaktır.

La paternidad de Dios ante la fraternidad negada. Análisis de Gn 4, 1-16 a partir del método narrativo
Authors:   Pontificia Universidad Gregoriana de Roma, Roma. Italia, Sánchez Gómez Luis Alberto
Published: November 2022

El relato prototípico de Caín y Abel, situado en los albores de la humanidad, no se trata de una mera enseñanza moral acerca de las relaciones intrafamiliares o interculturales, sino que contiene ante todo una profunda teología, es decir, revela el rostro de Dios y su íntima relación con el ser humano. Por su parte, el fratricidio de Caín trae consigo múltiples consecuencias que afectan la relación del hombre con la tierra e incluye a las futuras generaciones: un espiral de violencia que parece no tener límites. De estos temas y otros detalles importantes nos rinde cuentas la aplicación del método narrativo al análisis de Gn 4,1-16, fijando especial atención en las repeticiones, en los vacíos narrativos, en los diálogos y silencios, y en las diversas técnicas utilizadas por el hagiógrafo para descubrir el mensaje del texto.
Berberine Regulates the Metabolism of Uric Acid and Modulates Intestinal
Flora in Hyperuricemia Rats Model
Authors: Chen Qingqing , Li Dong , Wu Feiya , He Xue , Zhou Yifan , Sun Chao , Wang Haoyun , Liu Yujun
Published: November 2022

Background:

Intestinal microbiota is the primary target for the multifunctional nature of
berberine. Berberine can reverse the structure and composition of gut microbiota under pathological
conditions. This study aimed to investigate the effects of berberine on uric acid (UA) metabolism
and gut microbiota in a hyperuricemia rat model established using potassium oxonate.

Methods:

Sprague-Dawley (SD) male rats were divided into a normal control group (n= 10), a
hyperuricemia group (n = 12) and a berberine-treated group (n = 11). The UA level in serum, urine
and fecal, blood xanthine oxidase (XOD), and urate transports ABCG2 and Galectin-9 in the liver
and colon, were evaluated using ELISA kits. The alterations in gut microbiota were investigated
using 16S rRNA sequencing.

Results:

The UA level in the hyperuricemia group was significantly elevated (p<0.001), suggesting
that the model was successfully established. After treatment with berberine, levels of blood and
fecal UA significantly decreased (p<0.001), but not uric UA. The blood XOD level decreased,
urate transport ABCG2 in the colon increased, and urate transport Galectin-9 in the colon decreased
after berberine treatment (p<0.05). Further 16S sequencing revealed that berberine affected
the gut microbiota composition and diversity in hyperuricemia rats. Berberine treatment reduced
the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes, and increased the relative abundance of Lactobacillus. The
gut microbiota were predicted to be involved in multiple metabolic pathways, such as sphingolipid
metabolism, starch and sucrose metabolism and N-glycans.

Conclusion:

Berberine might be a possible therapeutic candidate in hyperuricemia, which could regulate
UA metabolism by affecting XOD, and urate transports and partly by regulating gut microbiota.

Hypothalamic-pituitary region lymphoma is rare and diabetes insipidus (DI) represents one of the most common endocrine manifestations. We report the first case of hypothalamic lymphoma associated with both the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis (SIAD) and DI.

Case report:

A 64-year-old woman with a history of stage IV large B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, underwent atypical right lung resection for pulmonary nodules. A few days after surgery, the patient presented severe normovolemic hyponatremia and serum hypo-osmolarity, therefore, we suspected a paraneoplastic syndrome (SIAD) related to the lung neoplasm, histologically diagnosed as typical carcinoid. The brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a 9 mm lesion in the hypothalamic region that significantly increased one month later with the onset of neurological symptoms. A trans-sphenoidal biopsy showed localization of the large B-cell lymphoma. After surgery, the patient presented with polyuria and polydipsia, so desmopressin therapy was started. In the following days, serum osmolarity and sodium fluctuated between normal and low values, then DI was excluded, and SIAD became more likely. Desmopressin therapy was discontinued and hyponatremia was treated with sodium infusion. Hypothalamic lymphoma was treated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy with substantial shrinkage. The hyponatremia persisted during anticancer treatments and improved only after radiotherapy, confirming paraneoplastic SIAD.

Conclusion:

Lymphomas of the hypothalamic region can cause electrolyte imbalance for various causes. The differential diagnosis between SIAD, DI and impaired thirst centers may not be straightforward and they must be evaluated step by step in all different stages of the disease.
Comparison of Measured Fusional Vergence Amplitudes using Prism Bar and Synoptophore in Sudanese Patients with Near Exophoria
Authors: Alrasheed Saif Hassan , Aldakhil Sulaiman
Published: November 2022

Background:

Assessment of the fusional vergence amplitudes constitutes one of the most important diagnostic tools to obtain information about the ability to maintain binocular vision. Several techniques can be used to assess this function. However, those methods are not interchangeable, and the measurement repeatability has been questioned.

Objective:

This study aimed to compare fusional vergence range measurements using prism bars and synoptophore in Sudanese patients with near exophoria

Methods:

The study was a comparative cross-sectional hospital-based, performed in the binocular vision clinic at the Al-Neelain Eye Hospital. Fusional vergence amplitudes (positive and negative) were measured on 122 patients (67 females and 55 males), and the mean age and standard deviation were 16.79 ± 5.22 years old using prism bar and synoptophore methods.

Results:

The findings showed that the higher positive fusional vergence was obtained using the synoptophore method (24.7 ± 7.2 Δ base-out), whereas the prism bar method provided the lower finding (22.6± 7.6 Δ base-out). Conversely, the prism bar method revealed a higher measurement for negative fusional vergence (13.9± 3.9 Δ base-in) than the synoptophore method (12.7± 3.7 Δ base-in). Using the t-test, significant differences were found between all measurements with the two techniques, P<0.05. Measurements of positive and negative fusional vergence amplitudes by the two methods showed no relationship between age and fusional vergence, P>0.05.

Conclusion:

Given the significant difference in the results obtained between the two methods for measuring the positive and negative fusional vergence amplitudes, caution should be taken when making decisions regarding fusional vergence assessment in patients with latent and manifest strabismus.
Evaluation of Back of Queue at Signalized Intersections in Erbil City Using Different Software
Authors: Omar Dilveen H. , Hussein Salar K.
Published: November 2022

Aims:

The aim of this study is to evaluate the queue length of isolated signalized intersections, which used HCS2010 and SIDRA Intersection 8 traffic software.

Background:

One of the important parameters to evaluate the performance of a traffic management system is queue length, especially in congested traffic situations. For the estimation of back of queue length, many traffic analyzing models are used based on Highway Capacity Manual (HCM2010).

Objective:

The values of queue length obtained from these two softwares are to be compared with observed queue length from the field. The study also aids in conducting a model of optimization for the back of queue length to decrease the value of storage length of vehicles following the GA procedure.

Methods:

In this study, four isolated signalized intersections were used in Erbil city, the capital of the Iraqi Kurdistan Region. The values of the measured back of queue lengths are compared with the values obtained from Highway Capacity Software HCS2010(HCS+T7F) and Signalized and Unsignalized Intersection Design and Research (SIDRA Intersection 8) Aid Australian Road Research Board (ARRB) software.

Results and Discussion:

The results of regression analysis showed that the SIDRA Intersection 8 Back of Queue model with adjusted R2 0.8465 have a stronger relationship with the field measured Back of the Queue for linear relationship compared to the HCS2010 back of queue model. Furthermore, the study tends to optimize the signalized intersections under study using HCS2010 and SIDRA Intersection 8 software based on the Genetic Algorithm (GA) to minimize the back of queue length. The percent of average reduction in HCS2010 and SIDRA Intersection 8 back of queue models are 36% and 29%, respectively. The main objective of optimizing the timing plan was to minimize the average storage queue length at signalized intersections that follow the Highway Capacity Manual (TRB 2010) procedure for queue length calculation. Moreover, 95th and 98th values of the percentiles were chosen to estimate the expectancy of upstream lane blockage and the expectancy of short lane overflow that was related to the back of the queue percentile.

Conclusion:

The improvement of vehicle storage for upstream lanes was conducted by the two software systems mentioned before. The results showed significant improvement in the performance of the intersections under study with a reduction in queue length.

Authors: Kökkülünk Handan Tanyildizi , Yildirim Ayşe Karadeniz
Published: November 2022

Introduction:

F18 and Ga68 radioisotopes are used in PET imaging for prostate cancer. It was aimed to calculate the prostate, testicle and bladder effective doses (ED) caused by F18 and Ga68 used in prostate cancer imaging with PET/CT via simulation with the GATE toolkit and evaluate the ED in terms of fertility.

Methods:

The prostate, testicle and bladder were defined together with their geometric properties and densities in GATE simulation. F18 and Ga68 with activity of 277.5 MBq and 151.7 MBq were identified in the prostate as a source organ. The ED, uncertainties, and S values were taken as an output file in the TXT format with the DoseActors command. S values were used for validation of the simulation.

Results:

The ED of the prostate, total testicle and bladder for F18 were found to be 6.627E-04 ± 1.799E-06, 12.74E-07 ± 4.11E-08 and 1.617E-05 ± 4.317E-09 (Gy/s), respectively. The ED of the prostate, total testicle, and bladder for Ga68 were found to be 9.195E-04 ± 2.660E-06, 6.54E-07 ± 2.93E-08 and 4.290E-05 ± 6.936E-09 (Gy/s), respectively.

Conclusions:

It was found that Ga68 produced high prostate and bladder ED, and F18 produced high testicular ED. In terms of male fertility, Ga68 seems to be a good alternative because it produces low testicular doses. The ED of the testicle both F18 and Ga68 were below the reported spermatogonia and azoospermia dose.
Incarceration as a Social Determinant of Health
Authors: Baksh Alisha
Published: November 2022

Incarceration is not considered a Social Determinant of Health (SDH), but further investigation on the topic will prove otherwise. The social determinant of health identified for this paper is a formerly incarcerated individual from a low socioeconomic (SES) community. The health outcome are barriers to access to healthcare post-release from jail or prison. While low socioeconomic status is a culture as well as a well-recognized SDH, incarceration is not typically thought of in this way. Therefore, when we couple the culture of low SES and the prison culture, we can start to think about incarceration as a rather complex SDH.

Background:

Smart technology, such as wearables, applied to sports analysis is essential for performance enhancement. New technological equipment can promote the interaction between researchers, coaches, and athletes, facilitating information exchange in real time.

Objective:

The aim of this study was to present new wearable equipment (SmartPaddle®) to measure kinematic and kinetic variables in swimming and understand the agreement of the propulsive force variable with a pressure sensor system.

Methods:

Four male university swimmers (18.75±0.50 years old, 71.55±6.80 kg of body mass, and 175.00±5.94 cm of height) were analyzed. The SmartPaddle® and a pressure sensor system were used to collect the kinetic data (propulsive force). The comparison between the propulsive force methods was based on t-test paired samples, simple linear regression, and Bland-Altman plots.

Results:

SmartPaddle® is a system that consists of (i) a wearable device, (ii) the Trainesense Session Manager mobile application for recording, and; (iii) the Analysis Center for analysis and data storage. It records a set of kinematic and kinetic parameters useful for coaches daily. The comparison between the different methods revealed non-significant differences and a very-high relationship.

Conclusion:

SmartPaddle® is a feasible wearable device that swimmersswimmers can use can use to provide immediate data about their kinematic and kinetic profile. Coaches can easily monitor these parameters and give immediate suggestions to their swimmers on a daily basis.
Predictors of Physical Educators' Attitudes toward including Students with Disabilities in Inclusive Classes
Authors: Alhumaid Majed M.
Published: November 2022

Background:

In recent years, inclusion has become an educational system implemented in many countries of the world, and teachers' attitudes towards this system are considered one of the most important factors to ensure its success.

Objective:

The purpose of this study was to examine Saudi Arabian physical educators’ attitudes toward teaching students with disabilities in inclusive physical education settings, and to examine the factors that affect such attitudes.

Methods:

Physical educators’ attitudes (N = 1,303; Mage= 40.07; SD = 9.30) were measured using the Arabic version of the Sentiments, Attitudes and Concerns about Inclusive Education-Revised Scale (SACIE-R).

Results:

Despite the moderately positive attitudes developed by physical educators, females reported more positive attitudes toward inclusion than males (2.51± 0.39vs. 2.345 ± 0.36; Z = -8.545; p = 0.001). Regression analysis indicated that three personal factors (i.e., gender, previous participation in training courses to teach students with disabilities, and knowledge of the Saudi educational legislation or policy) were significant predictors of physical educators’ attitudes toward such inclusion.

Conclusion:

The findings provide a database that Saudi Arabian educational decision-makers can refer to when designing teacher preparation programs in universities and educational institutions.
A Narrative Review: Exercise Induces Adipose Browning by Altering the Gut Microbiome Profile
Authors: Suryani Dini , Tarawan Vita Murniati , Megantara Imam , Lesmana Ronny , Sylviana Nova , Goenawan Hanna
Published: November 2022

Obesity is a condition that is highly associated with chronic diseases. The number of obese individuals is increasing on a global scale every year. Energy intake that is imbalanced with energy expenditure causes the accumulation of excess fat. Regular exercise is part of a lifestyle that can reduce the risk of obesity by inducing adipose browning. One of the mechanisms of exercise in inducing browning is by modifying the gut microbiome profile. This profile may promote adipose browning by maintaining the integrity of the intestinal barrier, glucose homeostasis, regulating energy absorption, and appetite-regulating hormones.
