Exploring Interracial Relationships: Marguerite Duras’ Portrayal of Love Between White Women and Asian Men in The Lover Trilogy
Authors: He Yifan
Published: August 2024

In "The Lover Trilogy," Margaret Duras' autobiographical novels, the discrimination of white people against colored races, the struggle of women in a patriarchal society, and the subtleties of class differences can all be found in the story of a couple of lovers. However, there is no absolute imbalance of power, since a poor white woman is still allowed to "look down" on a rich Asian man. Based on the text of "The Lover Trilogy," the dual perspectives of post-colonialism and feminist theories, and references to corresponding historical backgrounds and the author's personal life, this paper analyzes the subtle dislocation and balance of social power in both societies through the love affair between a white woman and an Asian man in Duras' novels. Being rebellious and losing her father at an early age, the white girl is thereby attracted to a Chinese male from a rich family who is much older than her. Although the Chinese lover enjoys advantages in terms of age, social status, and gender, as a white person living in the colony, the young girl has a superior social status. However, this misplaced "balance" cannot contribute to the completion of the love between the white woman and the Asian man. Instead, both the great opposition from society and family and their subliminal values assimilated by society have put the interracial love in an awkward situation that eventually ended with regrets.

Published: August 2024

Our study presents the development and implementation of a neural network-based smart city security monitoring system tailored for the urban environment of Beijing. Leveraging multimodal data integration, the system processes over 1,200 hours of video footage, 800 hours of audio recordings, and 400 hours of thermal data to provide comprehensive surveillance and real-time anomaly detection. The system achieved high accuracy rates of 96% for overcrowding detection, 93% for unauthorized access, and 90% for unattended objects, with corresponding precision rates of 96%, 95%, and 93%. The recall rates were slightly lower, at 89%, 87%, and 85%, respectively. Our system's implementation of edge computing enabled rapid response times, recorded at 1.5 seconds for subway stations, 2.0 seconds for Tiananmen Square, and 1.2 seconds for public transport hubs. These results underscore the system's effectiveness in delivering real-time monitoring and timely alerts, crucial for managing high-density areas and critical infrastructure in Beijing. The integration of advanced AI techniques, including transfer learning and Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), further enhanced the system's adaptability and robustness in detecting rare and unlabeled events. This study highlights the system's potential to significantly improve urban security infrastructure, offering a scalable and efficient solution for smart city applications.

Throwness as Reliable Path to the Genuine Exsitence of Human Beings
Authors: Jiang Chenglinkuan
Published: August 2024

The philosophical movement of existentialism has been significantly influenced by the contributions of Martin Heidegger and Jean-Paul Sartre, who are considered to be pivotal figures in this field. Although they both address fundamental aspects of the human condition, their philosophical methodologies differ significantly. Examining these divergent viewpoints is essential for understanding the depth and intricacy of the existentialist perspective. This article employs a comparative methodology to analyse the perspectives of Heidegger and Sartre on the fundamental aspects of human existence. The discussion will focus on Heidegger's notion of Dasein, which refers to the fundamental state of human existence. It will examine how his concepts of finitude and geworfenheit (thrownness) influence our comprehension of authenticity. The text will analyse Sartre's fundamental principle, which states that existence comes before essence. The concept emphasises the significance of individuals assuming responsibility for their actions and recognises the potential risks associated with making decisions in an uncertain environment. An analysis of Heidegger and Sartre in connection with Albert Camus and Simone de Beauvoir may reveal further nuances of existentialism. Through analysing these inquiries and exploring the interplay between existentialist philosophy and modern existence, researchers can develop a more profound understanding of the fundamental nature of humanity in a world where freedom and responsibility are intertwined.

Implementation of Adaptive Coding Approach Based on Periodic Walsh Piecewise-Linear Transform for Digital Grayscale Image
Authors:   University of Gharyan, College of Science, Gharyan - Libya, Aborass Maisam A.
Published: August 2024

An adaptive coding technique of gray level images using Periodic Walsh Piecewise-Linear (PWL) transform will be presented in this paper. In this technique the image sub-blocks are divided into four classes according to the level of image activity. The ac energy is used as a measure of the sub-block activity. Adaptivity is obtained by distributing bits among glasses. More bits are assigned to classes of higher activity and fewer bits to lower activity classes. The coding method employs an integer bit allocation scheme and Llyod-Max quantizers. Comparison of coding real images using the adaptive and non-adaptive schemes is given. Computer simulation results indicate that the image coding efficiency using the adaptive technique gives better performance than the non-adaptive scheme from the Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) viewpoint of the reconstructed images at the expense of a slight increase in complexity. Keywords: An adaptive coding, (PWL), image, bit ,(PSNR).

“On your health!” The Reveler by Isaac Koedijck from the Hermitage collection
Authors: Соколова И.А.
Published: August 2024

Картина Исака Кудейка (1617–1666) «Гуляка» из собрания Эрмитажа (инв. ГЭ-1862) – единственное произведение лейденского художника, в настоящее время находящееся в России. Однако история нескольких его работ в XVIII–XIX вв. была связана с русскими коллекциями. Датированная 1650 г. кабинетная картина создана незадолго до отъезда мастера на о. Ява и в Индию (1651 г.). В композиции представлен сидящий в интерьере мужчина с бокалом в руке, его взгляд и жест (тост «за Ваше здоровье!») обращены к зрителю. Рядом на столе видны предметы, образующие натюрморт, доминантой которого служит богато декорированный серебряный bekerschroef (держатель бокала) с большим рёмером. Это роскошное ювелирное изделие, покоящееся на ножке с головами дельфинов, включает фигурку сидящего на бочке младенца Вакха. Как удалось установить автору настоящей статьи, изобразительный мотив детально повторяет сохранившийся до наших дней серебряный и частично позолоченный держатель бокала, созданный в 1642 г. гаагским мастером Андрисом Гриллем (1604–1665) (Музей искусств, Гаага). Художник добавил столь дорогостоящий объект, чтобы придать бытовой композиции репрезентативный характер. Ни в одном другом произведении мастера богатый статусный предмет не встречается. Возможно, ювелирный шедевр принадлежал заказчику картины или самому художнику. Неслучайно он изображен рядом с центральным персонажем, поднимающим тост «За здоровье!»

The painting “The Reveler” by Isaac Koedijck (1617–1666) in the Hermitage collection is the only work of this fijnschilder located in Russia (Inv. GE-1862). However, the history of several of his pictures in the 18–19 centuries were associated with Russian collections. “The Reveler”, dated 1650, was created shortly before the Dutch master left for Batavia (1651). The composition presents a man sitting in the interior with a glass in his hand, whose gaze and toasting gesture are directed at the viewer. Nearby on the table some objects form a still life, which is dominated by a luxurious silver cup stand – bekerschroef – with a roemer. The cup stand in auricular style, decorated with the figure of the child Bacchus sitting on a barrel with a glass and a bunch of grapes in hands, rests on a base with three dolphins heads. The figurative motif repeats almost in detail the silver and partially gilded bekerschroef created in 1642 by the Hague master Andries Grill (1604–1665) (Kunst Museum, Den Haag, inv. 0153887). Most likely, Koedijck included this expensive item to give his composition a more representative character. No status symbol like this has been found in any other work by this artist. Perhaps the cup stand was in the possession of the person who commissioned the painting. It is no coincidence that it is depicted next to the central character raising a glass: on your health!
Prognostic Value of Systemic Inflammatory Markers and Scoring Systems in Predicting Postoperative 30-Day Complications and Mortality in Colorectal Cancer Surgery: A Retrospective Cross-Sectional Analysis
Authors: Akgul Caner , Colapkulu-Akgul Nuray , Gunes Abdullah
Published: August 2024

AIM: Cancer-related systemic inflammation causes the increase of proinflammatory markers and acute phase proteins. Activation of systemic inflammatory response has been linked to poorer prognosis in colorectal cancer. This study aims to evaluate the prognostic value of preoperative systemic inflammatory markers and inflammation/nutrition scoring systems in predicting the postoperative early period (first 30 days) complications and mortality outcomes of patients who underwent curative surgery for colorectal cancer in our clinic.  
METHODS: This study was designed as a retrospective single-arm cross-sectional study. In this study, 300 patients older than 18 years of age who underwent open and laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer were included. Demographic characteristics of the patients, preoperative hemogram and biochemical values, operation characteristics, postoperative tumor pathologies and disease stages were recorded.   
RESULTS: Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, Systemic Inflammation Score, Modified Glasgow Prognostic Score, Naples Prognostic Score and Prognostic Nutritional Index had a significant effect on the first 30-day mortality (p-values: <0.001, 0.007, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001, respectively).   
CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that certain preoperative inflammation and nutrition scores might serve as indicators for potential early postoperative adverse outcomes in colorectal cancer surgery.

RESULTS: Twelve studies were included in this review, all of which were case-control studies conducted from 2014 to 2022, encompassing a total of 5561 pregnant women. The quality of the studies included was average or above. The meta-analysis results showed that body mass index (mean difference (MD) = –1.47; 95% confidence interval (CI) [–2.84, –0.11]; p = 0.03), operating room temperature (odds ratio (OR) = 2.08; 95% CI [1.56, 2.76]; p < 0.00001), anesthesia method (OR = 1.84; 95% CI [1.40, 2.42]; p < 0.0001), fluid loss (MD = 160.09; 95% CI [77.31, 242.87]; p = 0.0002), flushing volume (MD = 66.43; 95% CI [8.46, 124.40]; p = 0.02), and hypothyroidism (OR = 2.29; 95% CI [1.61, 3.27]; p < 0.00001) were risk factors for perioperative hypothermia in pregnant women undergoing cesarean section (p < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: The occurrence of hypothermia in pregnant women during the perioperative period is influenced by factors such as low body mass index, spinal anesthesia, low operating room temperature, intraoperative fluid loss, large flushing volume, and hypothyroidism.

AIM: Remimazolam, known for its rapid onset, quick metabolism, and short recovery time from sedation, offers significant advantages in clinical anesthesia. Previous studies have primarily investigated its application in adult surgical anesthesia, with less focus on its utilization in pediatric patients. Therefore, we aimed to explore the 50% effective dose (ED50) and 95% effective dose (ED95) of remimazolam for laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion during general anesthesia in pediatric strabismus correction surgery and investigate its dose-response relationship, thereby providing valuable reference data for safer and more rational clinical use of remimazolam. 
METHODS: This study included 32 patients aged 3–12 years undergoing strabismus correction surgery at Ningbo Aier Guangming Eye Hospital in 2024. The dosage of remimazolam was determined according to the Dixon ‘up-and-down’ sequential method: the starting induction dose was 0.2 mg/kg, with a step dose of 0.05 mg/kg. In cases of positive anesthetic effect, the subsequent patient received a reduced step dose, while in cases of negative anesthetic effect, the next subject received an increased step dose. The trial was terminated upon observing seven “positive-negative” crossover points. Furthermore, the ED50 and ED95, along with their 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated using the Probit regression analysis. Additionally, vital signs of the patients, such as peripheral oxygen (SpO2), heart rate, and blood pressure, along with the incidence of adverse events, were monitored. 
RESULTS: The ED50 of remimazolam for LMA insertion in pediatric strabismus correction surgery was 0.300 mg/kg (95% CI 0.276–0.323 mg/kg), and the ED95 was 0.369 mg/kg (95% CI 0.324–0.414 mg/kg). Throughout the surgery, SpO2, heart rate, and blood pressure remained stable without any significant fluctuations. 
CONCLUSIONS: The ED50 and ED95 of remimazolam for LMA insertion in pediatric strabismus correction surgery are 0.300 mg/kg and 0.369 mg/kg, respectively. This study demonstrates that remimazolam is both safe and effective for LMA insertion during general anesthesia in pediatric strabismus correction surgery.

AIM: Patients with permanent colostomy need continuous nursing management measures. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the impact of discharge planning combined with “Internet home ostomy care platform'' on post-discharge complications, self-management abilities, quality of life, and satisfaction of patients with permanent colostomy after rectal cancer surgery. 
METHODS: This retrospective analysis included 72 rectal cancer patients who underwent permanent colostomy in Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital between January 2021 and December 2021. Patients receiving routine nursing management were included in the control group (n = 36), and those receiving discharge planning combined with “Internet home ostomy care platform'' were included in the study group (n = 36). We collected baseline data, complication rate, self-management behavior questionnaire for Chinese enterostomy patients (SBQ-CEP), and Chinese version of the City of Hope Quality of Life-Ostomy Questionnaire (COH-QOL-OQ) and Medical Experience Scale for Outpatient Care of Enterostomy (MES-OCE) score. The complication rate, self-management ability, quality of life, and satisfaction of the two groups were statistically compared and analyzed. 
RESULTS: The study group demonstrated significantly higher medical compliance behavior, dietary behavior, symptom management behavior, psychosocial behavior, information management behavior scores, and SBQ-CEP total scores compared to the control group six months after discharge (p < 0.05). However, the study group showed a significantly lower incidence of complications than the control group at 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after discharge (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the study group demonstrated significantly lower psychological well-being, physical well-being, spiritual well-being, social well-being scores, and COH-QOL-OQ total scores compared to the control group 6 months after discharge (p < 0.05). Additionally, the study group indicated significantly higher environment and process, service attitude, health guidance, diagnosis and treatment effect, overall evaluation of treatment experience scores, and MES-OCE total scores compared to the control group 6 months after discharge (p < 0.05). 
CONCLUSIONS: Discharge planning combined with “Internet home ostomy care platform'' can effectively reduce the risk of complications in patients with permanent colostomy after rectal cancer surgery. It improves patients' self-management abilities, quality of life, and satisfaction. This finding provides an ongoing guarantee for the quality of rehabilitation at home for patients with permanent colostomy.
An Innovative Deep Learning Approach to Spinal Fracture Detection in CT Images
Authors: Wu Haiting , Fu Qingsong
Published: August 2024

AIM: Spinal fractures, particularly vertebral compression fractures, pose a significant challenge in medical imaging due to their small-scale nature and blurred boundaries in Computed Tomography (CT) scans. However, advanced deep learning models, such as the integration of the You Only Look Once (YOLO) V7 model with Efficient Layer Aggregation Networks (ELAN) and Max-Pooling Convolution (MPConv) architectures, can substantially reduce the loss of small-scale information during computational processing, thus improving detection accuracy. The purpose of this study is to develop an innovative deep learning approach for detecting spinal fractures, particularly vertebral compression fractures, in CT images. 
METHODS: We proposed a novel method to precisely identify spinal injury using the YOLO V7 model as a classifier. This model was enhanced by integrating ELAN and MPConv architectures, which were influenced by the Receptive Field Learning and Aggregation (RFLA) small object recognition framework. Standard normalization techniques were utilized to preprocess the CT images. The YOLO V7 model, integrated with ELAN and MPConv architectures, was trained using a dataset containing annotated spinal fractures. Additionally, to mitigate boundary ambiguities in compressive fractures, a Theoretical Receptive Field (TRF) based on Gaussian distribution and an Effective Receptive Field (ERF) were used to capture multi-scale features better. Furthermore, the Wasserstein distance was employed to optimize the model's learning process. A total of 240 CT images from patients diagnosed with spinal fractures were included in this study, sourced from Ningbo No.2 Hospital, ensuring a robust dataset for training the deep learning model. 
RESULTS: Our method demonstrated superior performance over conventional object detection networks like YOLO V7 and YOLO V3. Specifically, with a dataset of 200 pathological images and 40 normal spinal images, our method achieved a 3% increase in accuracy compared to YOLO V7. 
CONCLUSIONS: The proposed method offers an innovative and more effective approach for identifying vertebral compression fractures in CT scans. These promising findings suggest the method's potential for practical clinical applications, highlighting the significance of deep learning in enhancing patient care and treatment in medical imaging. Future research should incorporate cross-validation and independent validation and test sets to assess the model's robustness and generalizability. Additionally, exploring other deep learning models and methods could further enhance detection accuracy and reliability, contributing to the development of more effective diagnostic tools in medical imaging.

Published: August 2024

AIM: Complex anal fistula poses a significant challenge for anorectal surgeons due to its high risks of recurrence and incontinence. A sphincter-preserving procedure named endorectal advancement flap (ERAF) is gradually being applied to clinical practice. Therefore, this meta-analysis aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ERAF in managing anal fistula.   
METHODS: We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and Web of Science databases for relevant manuscripts published from 29 August 2003 to 29 August 2023. Among these studies, outcomes included healing rate, recurrence rate, incontinence rate, and complications. Furthermore, the quality of the included studies was assessed using the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale (NOS) and the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool. The heterogeneity was determined using the chi-squared test and I2 statistic. A random effects model was applied if significant heterogeneity (p < 0.05 and I2 > 50%) was observed. Sensitivity analysis was conducted by excluding studies with a high risk of bias.   
RESULTS: Thirty-eight studies were included in the present analysis, involving 1559 participants. The pooled healing rate and recurrence rate of ERAF were 65.5% (95% confidence intervals (CI): 57.6%–73.4%) and 19.6% (95% CI: 14.8%–24.4%), respectively. The pooled incontinence rate was 10.6% (95% CI: 6.0%–15.1%). According to the subgroup analysis, the healing rate, recurrence rate, and incontinence rate of ERAF for fistula associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) were 53.9% (95% CI: 38.1%–69.7%), 32.6% (95% CI: 21.3%–43.8%), and 2.8% (95% CI: 0%–10.6%), respectively. For patients without IBD, the healing rate, recurrence rate, and incontinence rate of ERAF were 70.6% (95% CI: 63.9%–77.4%), 15.7% (95% CI: 9.9%–21.5%), and 16.5% (95% CI: 8.1%–24.9%), respectively. We observed that bleeding, local infection or abscess, flap dehiscence, and haematomas were the common complications, with incidences of 2.2% (95% CI: 0%–4.5%), 9.5% (95% CI: 4.7%–14.4%), 10.4% (95% CI: 0.0%–21.6%), and 12.4% (95% CI: 0%–27.6%), respectively.   
CONCLUSIONS: ERAF may be an optional treatment for anal fistula from the perspective of effectiveness and safety.

A Critical discourse analysis (CDA) of Obama and Trump’s speeches on Afghan policy
Authors: Fatima Rameen
Published: August 2024

This research analyzes the persuasive appeals President Obama and Donald Trump used in speeches regarding the Afghan policy using American Exceptionalism, Power and Ideology. The research used critical discourse analysis (CDA) within this study. For this purpose, the key speeches by both presidents were chosen: pronouns, voice, nominalization, word choice, and metaphors. The findings reveal that while both leaders aimed to justify America’s prolonged military involvement in Afghanistan, they employed distinct approaches. While Obama was politer and more appealed to ethical considerations pointing to the mission’s just nature, Trump was more forceful and utilitarian, framing the conflict as an endeavor for which the cost and benefits are clear. Thus, the study shows the significance of the CDA method of political speech analysis for ideology and hegemony detection and stresses that the problem of power usage accountability remains actual on the international level. The research also advocates the exploration of the speech acts towards a narrower range of power and the utilization of more kinds of analyses on a greater selection of speeches for a better understanding of the multifaceted connection between language, power, and international relations.
