A Cognitive Linguistics approach to internet memes on selected Polish internet sitesThe present study aims to analyse selected internet memes as examples of social communication from the perspective of Cognitive Linguistics, and to examine more closely the relation between their visual and verbal aspects. Internet memes contain a wide range of constructions (necessary for rebuilding the semantic framework and extracting selected content), which are fragmentary but at the same time sufficient to induce a whole framework of meanings by using their salient features. The multimodal context is considered within the frameworks of conceptual metaphor theory (Lakoff & Johnson, 1980), construal (Langacker, 1987, 2008), frame semantics (Fillmore, 1988), conceptual blending theory (Fauconnier & Turner, 2002) and Discourse Viewpoint Space (Dancygier & Vandelanotte, 2016). The paper will present an analysis of the structure of internet memes, which are rich concepts that spread rapidly and widely, and also invite recipients to actively participate in the construction of the message, thus becoming contributors. Memy internetowe na wybranych polskich stronach internetowych. Podejście językoznawstwa kognitywnegoMemy są często bogatymi tworami, łączącymi konstrukcje i zabiegi językowe z elementami wizualnymi, które pomimo bycia jedynie cząstkowymi desygnatami, pozwalają na wydobycie ram semantycznych oraz zrozumienie określonych treści z często fragmentarycznego przekazu obrazka. Przyswojenie komunikatu odbywa się przy pomocy wybranych elementów językowych i ikonicznych osadzonych w kontekście multimodalnym.Celem artykułu jest analiza relacji pomiędzy aspektem wizualnym i werbalnym w wybranych memach internetowych, rozumianych jako przykłady komunikacji społecznej, przy pomocy narzędzi językoznawczych, m.in. teorii metafory pojęciowej i metonimii (Lakoff i Johnson, 1980), obrazowania mentalnego (Langaker, 1987, 2008), semantyki ramowej (Fillmore, 1988), teorii amalgamatów pojęciowych (Fauconnier i Turner, 2002) oraz perspektywy narracyjnej (ang. Discourse Viewpoint Space) (Dancygier i Vandelanotte, 2016).

The Foreign Economic Policy of Dilma Rousseff’s Government and the Limits of Dependency
Authors: Zahluth Bastos Pedro Paulo , Hiratuka Célio 
Published: January 2020

There is some consensus on the foreign policy of Dilma Rousseff’s government that Brazil lost prestige and international influence because of her lesser personal dedication. Against this consensus, the paper presents two alternative hypotheses for explaining its unsatisfactory outcomes: that there was no change in policy objectives but an adaptation to a more hostile context and that its limitations were structurally related to dependency on global corporations and to the increasing rejection of South-South politics by domestic business. If this analysis is correct, the structural limitations described require that the struggle to achieve an independent foreign policy involve deeper political and ideological battles and a more radical questioning of neoliberal capitalism. Há certo consenso sobre a política econômica externa do governo Dilma Rousseff: o Brasil perdeu prestígio e influência internacional por causa de sua menor dedicação pessoal. Contra este consenso, o artigo apresenta duas hipóteses para explicar os resultados piores: que não houve mudança nos objetivos da política, mas sua adaptação a contexto mais hostil, e que os limites da política externa relacionam-se, estruturalmente, à dependência das corporações globais e, politicamente, à gradual rejeição da política Sul-Sul por parte do empresariado interno. Se esta análise estiver correta, a existência dos limites estruturais apontados exige que, no futuro, a luta para assegurar uma política externa independente envolva batalhas políticas e ideológicas mais profundas e um questionamento mais radical do capitalismo neoliberal.
Fast-track Redevelopment and Slow-track Regularization: The Uneven Geographies of Spatial Regulation in Mexico City
Authors: Wigle Jill 
Published: January 2020

Some of the increasingly evident contradictions between spatial planning and social policy in Mexico City are apparent in the way land use regulation folds into and articulates with exclusion and marginality. In downtown areas, regulatory approvals and various planning measures have facilitated the escalation of land and housing prices and more exclusionary forms of urban development. At the periphery, land use regulation now conditions access to urban services, property titles, and even some social programs for settlement areas designated as “informal.” Comparing the state’s role in planning at these distinct sites uncovers a pattern of selective and uneven spatial regulation in different socioeconomic territories of the city, characterized by “fast-track” development approvals in downtown areas and “slow-track” regularization of settlements in peripheral areas. The analysis suggests how this pattern of uneven spatial regulation contributes to (re)producing urban space in ways that call into question the local government’s stated support for the “right to the city.” Las geografías desiguales de la regulación espacial ponen de manifiesto algunas de las contradicciones cada vez más evidentes entre la planificación espacial y la política social en la Ciudad de México. En las áreas del centro, las aprobaciones regulatorias y varias medidas de planificación han facilitado el aumento de los precios de la tierra y la vivienda y formas más excluyentes de desarrollo urbano. En la periferia, la regulación del uso de la tierra ahora condiciona el acceso a servicios urbanos, títulos de propiedad e incluso algunos programas sociales para áreas de asentamiento designadas como “informales.” Comparar el papel del estado en la planificación en estos sitios distintos revela un patrón de regulación espacial selectiva y desigual en diferentes territorios socioeconómicos de la ciudad, caracterizados por aprobaciones “fast-track” de desarrollo en áreas del centro y regularización “slow-track” de asentamientos en áreas periféricas. El análisis se centra en cómo la regulación del uso de la tierra se enreda y articula con la exclusión y la marginalidad y cómo la regulación espacial desigual contribuye a (re) producir espacio urbano de manera que cuestione el apoyo declarado del gobierno local por “el derecho a la ciudad.”
Precarious Work in Argentina, 2003–2017
Authors: Ferre Juan Cruz 
Published: January 2020

Based on data from Argentina’s Permanent Household Survey, the method of analysis used in this study permits the rate of precarious work in Argentina in 2017 and its trend in 2003–2017 to be determined more accurately than before. The figure in 2017 was 47 percent, and women, younger people, the less educated, and the foreign-born were more likely to have precarious jobs. A separate analysis of the categories that constitute precarious work provides unique insight on the interrelation among employment relations, economic growth, and labor-capital conflict. Lastly, the findings provide support for the existence of a range of productivity levels across firms instead of a sharp distinction between formal and informal sectors of the economy and a continuous inverse relationship with precarious employment. En base a datos de la Encuesta Permanente de Hogares de Argentina, el método de análisis utilizado en este estudio permite determinar la tasa de trabajo precario en Argentina en 2017 y su tendencia en 2003–2017 con mayor precisión que antes. La cifra en 2017 fue del 47 por ciento, y las mujeres, los jóvenes, los menos educados y los nacidos en el extranjero tenían más probabilidades de tener trabajos precarios. Un análisis separado de las categorías que constituyen el trabajo precario proporciona una visión única de la interrelación entre las relaciones laborales, el crecimiento económico y el conflicto laboral-capital. Por último, los hallazgos respaldan la existencia de una gama de niveles de productividad de las empresas del mismo sector en lugar de una distinción clara entre los sectores formales e informales de la economía y una relación inversa continua con el empleo precario.
The Cumulative Risk Assessment of Hepatotoxic Chemicals: A Hepatic Histopathology Perspective
Authors: Foster John R. , Semino-Beninel Giovanna , Melching-Kollmuss Stephanie 
Published: January 2020

The increased concern on the consequence of exposure to multiple chemical combinations has led national regulatory authorities to develop different concepts to conduct risk assessments on chemical mixtures. Pesticide residues were identified as “problem formulation” in the respective European regulations and in this context, the European Food and Safety Authority has suggested to group pesticidal active ingredients (AIs) into cumulative assessment groups (CAGs) based on the toxicological properties of each AI. One proposed CAG, on the liver, currently consists of 15 subgroups, each representing a specific hepatotoxic effect observed in toxicity studies. Dietary cumulative risk assessments would then have to be conducted assuming dose additivity of all members of each CAG subgroup. The purpose of this publication is to group AIs based upon the knowledge of the pathogenesis of liver effects to discriminate between primary end points (direct consequence of chemical interaction with a biological target) and secondary end points (which are a consequence of, or that arise out of, a previous pathological change). Focusing on the relevant primary end points strengthens and simplifies the selection of compounds for cumulative risk assessment regarding the liver and better rationalizes the basis for chemical grouping. Relevant dose additivity is to be expected at the level of the primary/leading pathological end points and not at the level of the secondary end points. We recognize, however, that special consideration is needed for substances provoking neoplasia, and this category is included in the group of primary end points for which chemicals inducing them are grouped for risk assessment. Using the pathological basis for defining the respective CAGs, 6 liver subgroups and 2 gallbladder/bile duct groups are proposed. This approach simplifies the cumulative assessment calculation without obviously affecting consumer safety.
Indiscriminate Pathologic Examination of Pediatric Supraglottoplasty Specimens: An Evidence‐Based Approach toward Exempt Status

Published: January 2020

ObjectiveThe primary aim of this study was to demonstrate that indiscriminate pathologic evaluation of supraglottoplasty specimens is unnecessary and does not influence postoperative management. The secondary objective was to determine the costs associated with pathologic evaluation of supraglottoplasty specimens.MethodsA planned chart review was conducted to evaluate data from consecutive patients undergoing supraglottoplasty. Demographic data were extracted and pathology reports were reviewed. Projected cost savings were estimated based on 2018 Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services reimbursement rates for Current Procedural Terminology code 88304 (surgical pathology, gross and microscopic examination).ResultsA total of 1417 consecutive patients were identified. All specimens underwent gross and microscopic examination. Pathologic outcomes were categorized into 3 major categories: no diagnostic abnormality (n = 1069), chronic inflammation (n = 346), and other (n = 2). Pathologic evaluation did not alter postoperative management in any patient. Projected yearly and 5‐year cost‐ savings totaled $11,818.08 and $59,173.92, respectively.DiscussionThese findings demonstrate that pathologic examination of supraglottoplasty specimens adds no value to patient management. A more selective approach to pathologic examination of certain surgical specimens is an improvement opportunity to enhance the value of patient care by eliminating direct financial costs and “hidden costs” associated with unnecessarily increased workload.Implications for PracticeAddressing inappropriate, indiscriminate pathologic examination of certain surgical specimens is a potential quality improvement opportunity that has a meaningful impact on the value of patient care and reduces strains on the workload of surgical and pathology department personnel.

Objectives Antibodies against carbamylated protein (anti-CarP) were found to be a promising marker to evaluate joint damage and disease activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, whether anti-CarP antibodies were present in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) remained ambiguous. We have therefore undertaken this study to assess the levels of serum anti-CarP antibodies and to evaluate their clinical value in SLE. Methods Serum levels of antibodies against carbamylated-vimentin (anti-Carp) were measured by enzyme immunosorbent assay in 100 patients with SLE, 76 with RA, 17 with primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS), and 68 healthy controls. Data analyses between anti-Carp antibodies and other laboratory measures were performed using SPSS 24 software for Windows. Results The levels of serum anti-CarP antibodies in patients with SLE were significantly higher than those in healthy controls. In addition, anti-CarP antibodies were present in SLE patients lacking the disease-specific antibodies, including anti-Smith–negative patients (24.4%, 21/86), anti-dsDNA–negative patients (29.3%, 12/41), anti-nucleosome–negative patients (21.4%, 9/42), and antiribosomal P protein antibody–negative patients (23.7%, 18/76). There were significant differences between the anti-CarP–positive and anti-CarP–negative SLE patients in clinical and laboratory features, such as age, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein, rheumatoid factor, third-generation cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP3), anticardiolipin, D-dipolymer, complement 3, immunoglobulin G (IgG), red blood cell count (RBC) and hemoglobin. After adjusting for age and disease duration, the high levels of anti-CarP antibodies were still correlated with low RBC, hemoglobin and high ESR, IgG and CCP3. Active SLE patients demonstrated higher anti-CarP IgG than inactive patients. Moreover, the levels of anti-CarP were significantly higher in SLE patients with arthralgia and/or arthritis than in those without joint involvement. Conclusions Anti-CarP antibodies were present in SLE patients and associated with the disease severity. These might provide a potential supplement to other specific autoantibodies for diagnosis of SLE and serve as a promising marker for measuring joint damage in the disease.

Published: January 2020

Objective: Despite the importance of volunteers in end-of-life care (EoLC), ways to empower their engagement therein remain unclear. The aim of our study was to examine the effectiveness of a holistic capacity-building program for volunteers in community-based EoLC. Methods: Applicants completed a capacity-building program in four steps: motivational screening, core competence training, internships, and in-service supervision. Screening involved completing a self-administered risk assessment and being interviewed by a social worker, and a questionnaire was developed to evaluate the effectiveness of training at pretraining, posttraining, and 6-month follow-up. Results: Of 171 applicants, 88 completed core competence training after screening, and 53 continued volunteering for the 6 months that followed. Their competence in EoLC, awareness of self-care, and death work competence significantly improved after training and remained intact at 6-month follow-up. Conclusions: The four-phase capacity-building program effectively empowered volunteers to provide EoLC for elderly persons in their communities.
Home Visiting Work: A Transdisciplinary Study
Authors: Bräutigam Barbara , Lüngen Sarah , Müller Matthias 
Published: January 2020

Purpose: Home visiting (HV) work represents an expanding, extremely promising, and commonly practiced approach that can be seen in various areas of social work as well as health care. This report presents the results of the research study “‘home treatment’ (HT)—transdisciplinary research in HV work.” Method: It is the first German study that has used qualitative and quantitative methods to collect data from different professions in respect to this topic. From the point of view of the professionals, the study underlines that HV work principally seems to be a good base for establishing a professional and confidential relationship. They attribute more sustainability and participation from the clients to home-based interventions than other forms of help. After a short introduction about the current situation of HV work, the research project will be explained and the qualitative and quantitative methods described. Results: The results of the “HT Questionnaire” will be presented in 10 sections and the qualitative results in a model for reflection based on three points of view and five main topics. Discussion: Finally, some ethical and safety aspects will be discussed.
Is venous thromboembolism prophylaxis beneficial in upper limb major joint replacement surgery? A systematic review
Authors: Kadhum Murtaza , Elniel Abdel Rahim , Furniss Dominic 
Published: January 2020

Background Upper limb arthroplasty is an increasingly used treatment modality for end-stage joint disease of the shoulder, elbow and wrist. Whilst complications have been reported, the risk of venous thromboembolism has received less attention when compared to the lower limb. Guidance to aid clinical decision-making remains limited. This review aims to ascertain whether venous thromboembolism prophylaxis is beneficial after upper limb major joint replacement surgery. Methods A systematic review was performed in April 2019, utilising EMBASE, MEDLINE, Cochrane and Google Scholar. All clinical studies reporting venous thromboembolism incidence and risk reduction (after prophylaxis) in upper limb joint replacement were included. Results Twenty-four observational studies were identified. The reported incidence of venous thromboembolism ranged from 0.2% to 16% (weighted mean 0.68%) and 0.2% to 0.8% (weighted mean 0.49%) in shoulder and elbow arthroplasty, respectively. No records for wrist arthroplasty were found. In the literature, baseline venous thromboembolism risk of patients without an operation is reported as 0.5%. Discussion There is a lack of good quality evidence regarding the risks and benefits of venous thromboembolism prophylaxis in upper limb major joint replacement surgery. We recommend further research, ideally formal randomised controlled trials to guide recommendations. Although venous thromboembolism is rare in upper limb surgery, surgeons should remain vigilant to this possibility.
