Iconicity and systematicity in phonaesthemes: A cross-linguistic study
Authors: Mompean Jose A. , Fregier Amandine , Valenzuela Javier 
Published: April 2020

Abstract
This study aims to find out whether speakers of different language backgrounds (English, French, Spanish, and Macedonian) are sensitive to semantic associations (‘fluid’ and ‘forcible contact’) attached respectively to two purported phonaesthemes (/fl-/ and /tr-/). Participants completed the task in oral and written conditions. They had to match phonaestheme-related definitions with either of two non-words (one phonaestheme-bearing and the other containing a distractor). The results obtained indicate that participants significantly chose non-words beginning with /tr-/ when the definition activated a meaning related to forcible contact, and non-words starting with /fl-/ when the definitions made reference to fluids in the four languages. The results point to the existence of non-arbitrary sound-meaning relations. A corpus-driven study of frequencies of lemmas and word tokens starting with the purported phonaesthemes also sheds light on the possible origin of the phonaesthemic associations, suggesting that both iconicity and systematicity motivate such associations. The results obtained are interpreted in the context of a functional, usage-based model of language, which can accommodate the existence of iconic tendencies, the role of learning and linguistic experience in language, and arbitrariness.
Survival of both twins in a pregnancy complicated by pre-viable cord prolapse at 21 weeks of gestation
Authors: Alnoman Abdullah , Alsarraj Ghazi , Brown Richard 
Published: April 2020

Abstract

Background
Umbilical cord prolapse is rare but a very serious obstetric emergency. Its incidence has declined over time and significant advances in its management have improved perinatal outcome.

Case presentation
A 38-year-old woman (gravida 3, para 0) conceived a dichorionic twin pregnancy through in vitro fertilization presented at 21 weeks of gestation with premature rupture of membrane of the presenting twin. At 21+4 weeks’ gestation, cord prolapse of the presenting twin into the vagina was identified by ultrasound. Parents chose conservative management, and planned cesarean section was done at 27+4 weeks.

Conclusion
Our case demonstrates that conservative management with measures to reduce the risks of infection and a planned delivery can result in positive outcomes even in cases where the cord prolapse occurs prior to viability.
Communication and Culture in the Meta-Media Era
Authors: Zhao Xingzhi 
Published: April 2020

Abstract
With the rapid development of digital media technology represented by the Internet and convergent media, human society entered the “meta-media age” at the end of the twentieth century. Regarded as the “media of media,” meta-media, or the terminal screens connected by the Internet, integrate all existing media forms and their communication patterns by translating, remodeling, and even re-forming their sign-texts. Accordingly, “remediation” has become the dominant way to construct the meaning of signs in meta-media. It should be noted that the remediation of meta-media changes not only the form of the existing media, but also the way we communicate with signs. Hence, from the perspective of the semiotics of communication, this paper considers the features and cultural influence of symbolic communication in the meta-media age based on Roman Jakobson’s six factors/functions of signs model.
Über Normalität und Abweichung: Ein responsiver Ansatz
Authors: Summa Michela 
Published: April 2020

Abstract
This article aims to highlight the relevance of Bernhard Waldenfels’ responsive phenomenology for questions related to normality and to the different kinds of deviation from what is taken tobe normal. The article begins with a discussion of two limit cases in the understanding of the concepts of normality and deviation: a strictly normative understanding, according to which each deviation is norm-deviation, and a descriptive understanding, according to which deviation is what underlies individuality. Considering Waldenfels’ responsive philosophy in connection with Kurt Goldstein’s and George Canguilhem’s philosophies of the organism, both understandings are critically discussed. In particular, the article shows how both views turn out to be one-sided and should be revised on the basis of a responsive account of the organism (particularly of the human organism) and its situated relation to circumstances, events, and affordances in the world it inhabits. The analysis of the different forms of responsiveness of the human organism, and notably the distinction between ‘catastrophic’ or pathological and ‘creative’ or organising kinds of responsiveness, can allow us to develop a relational and dynamic account of normality and deviation. Accordingly, neither normality nor deviation should be taken as univocally defined states; they should rather be reassessed on the basis of the processes in and through which order is interrupted, disturbed, and possibly reshaped or newly instituted.
Ethnologie als Xenologie
Authors: Leistle Bernhard 
Published: April 2020

AbstractThis article explores the implications of Bernhard Waldenfels’s responsive phenomenology for the discipline of cultural anthropology or ethnology, insofar as it understands itself as the “science of the culturally Other”. It discusses Waldenfels’s own engagement with ethnology and shows the compatibility of his approach with discussions within the discipline. The intertwining of ownness and alienness that is central to Waldenfels’s account of experience is applied to the problem of culture in ethnology. This leads to an acknowledgement of a domain between cultures, a genuine interculturality, as the fundamental field of ethnological research, which, however, can only be addressed through indirect forms of representation. Such forms are identified in the practice of ethnographic citation, and through a reinterpretation of Horace Miner’s classical satire “Body Ritual among the Nacirema”, thus demonstrating the possibility of a prospective “responsive ethnology”.

Published: April 2020

AbstractWood decay is an economically significant process, as it is one of the major causes of wood deterioration in buildings. In this study, the decay process of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) samples caused by cellar fungus (Coniophora puteana) was followed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods. Altogether, 30 wood sample pieces were exposed to fungus for 10 weeks. Based on the decrease of the dry mass, the samples were categorized into three classes: decomposed (mass decrease 50–70%), slightly decomposed (10–50%), and nondecomposed (<10%). MRI made it possible to identify the active regions of fungus inside the wood samples based on the signal of free water brought by the fungus and arisen from the decomposition of wood carbohydrates. MRI implies that free water is not only created by the decay process, but fungal hyphae also transports a significant amount of water into the sample. Two-dimensional1HT1-T2relaxation correlation NMR measurements provided detailed information about the changes in the microstructure of wood due to fungal decomposition. Overall, this study paves the way for noninvasive NMR and MRI detection of fungal decay at early stages as well as the related structural changes.
First Scandinavian case of successful pregnancy during nitisinone treatment for type 1 tyrosinemia
Authors: Äärelä Linnea , Nevalainen Pasi I. , Kurppa Kalle , Hiltunen Pauliina 
Published: April 2020

AbstractBackgroundType 1 tyrosinemia is a hereditary metabolic disease in which tyrosine metabolites damage the liver and kidneys. Nitisinone medication revolutionized the treatment, but the effects of the drug during human pregnancy are unknown.Case presentationA 17-year-old tyrosinemia patient became pregnant. Nitisinone was continued throughout pregnancy with a varying serum concentration and dose ranging from 0.8 to 1.4 mg/kg/day. Blood tyrosine remained stable until it increased in late pregnancy. α-fetoprotein increased to 284 μg/L without new changes in liver. Urine succinylacetone remained undetectable, but there were signs of possibly reoccurring kidney tubulopathy. Fetal ultrasound monitoring was normal throughout the pregnancy and the newborn healthy. After the delivery, α-fetoprotein normalized, but tyrosine continued to rise for up to 1 year. The child is developing normally.ConclusionsPregnancy during nitisinone was successful, but tailoring of the drug dose and possibly reappearing complications, as also increasing serum tyrosine concentration after delivery warranted intensified surveillance.
Imposters and their implications for third-person feature specification
Authors: Adams Nikki , Conners Thomas J. 
Published: April 2020

AbstractImposters, seemingly third person nouns with speech act participant reference, have been varyingly analyzed as being licensed through an elaborated DP syntax (Collins and Postal. 2008. Imposters.Manuscript.http://ling.auf.net/lingbuzz/000640(accessed 12 May 2017), Collins and Postal. 2012.Imposters: A study of pronominal agreement. Cambridge: MIT Press) or through lexical specification (Kaufman 2014. The syntax of Indonesian imposters. In Chris Collins (ed.),Cross-linguistic studies of imposters and pronominal agreement, 89–120. Oxford: Oxford University Press). Looking at Korean and Indonesian, two languages that make frequent use of imposters, we show that both can be accounted for without appeal to an elaborated DP syntax and that, in fact, such a structure makes the wrong predictions. Rather, other heads in the clause, in conjunction with differences in lexical specification, can account for both languages. In Indonesian, which freely allows imposters to bind anaphors with person features of the referent, the imposter is lexically specified for those features. In Korean, where such binding is restricted, imposters are underspecified for person and so anaphors only occur when there is another person feature-carrying head to supply the necessary features (Zanuttini et al. 2012. A syntactic analysis of interpretive restrictions on imperative, promissive, and exhortative subjects.Natural Language & Linguistic Theory30(4). 1231–1274). Previously left unexplained was why Korean imposters were unable to bind any person-marked anaphors, including third person, under an assumption that person-underspecified DPs get valued with a default third person feature. We argue this is a result of the difference in types of third person, those specified for third person and those that are not (Sigurðsson 2010. On EPP effects.Studia Linguistica64(2). 159–189).

Abstract
McGuinness, A, Passmore, D, Malone, S, and Collins, K. Peak running intensity of elite female field hockey players during competitive match play. J Strength Cond Res 36(4): 1064–1070, 2022—In recent years, backroom coaching staff have relied heavily on the global demands of competitive match-play to monitor running performance within training and match environments. Although, these figures help prepare players for the demands of match-play, they do not account for the physical and physiological stress of the most intense periods of competition. The aim of the current study was to quantify the duration and position-specific maximal running performance during match-play using a 1–10-minute moving average epoch methodology. Twenty-six (n = 26) elite international female field hockey players (23 ± 3 years; 162.6 ± 13 cm; 66 ± 6 kg) participated in the current observational study. Data were collected during 22 international games, resulting in over 360 individual samples (n = 368) being obtained for analysis. Players were categorized based on their positional lines of play (defenders, midfielders, and forwards). Variables of interest included relative total (m·min−1), high-speed (>16 km·h−1; m·min−1) and sprint distance (>20 km·h−1; m·min−1). Regardless of position, varying differences were observed between 10-minute rolling average for relative total (mod—large), high-speed (mod-large), and sprint (mod—large) distance respectively. Furthermore, as the duration of the rolling average increased, so did the observed differences (small). The forwards (119.3 ± 19.7 m·min−1) were reported to have the highest peak output during minute one for relative high-speed distance when compared with the defenders (100.7 ± 19.7, effect size [ES] 0.9, large) and the midfield (106.8 ± 23.4 m·min−1, ES 0.5, moderate). The results of the current study show that the running performance of field hockey players alters during match-play irrespective of moving average. Finally, the data will aid practitioners in the development of sport-specific drills to adequately prepare hockey players for the maximal intensity periods of elite hockey match-play.

Published: April 2020

Plantation is one of sub sector in agriculture with strategic role and contribution in the Indonesian economic. One of those commodities is cashew nuts. This research aimed to analyze competitiveness of cashew nuts in the international market, to identify factors affecting cashew nuts competitiveness, and to formulate strategy in enhancing cashew nuts competitiveness. The research method used was RCA, ISP, ECI and SWOT. Research result showed that RCA value showed that Indonesian cashew nuts is comparative disadvantage, but Indonesia is as exporter by seeing ISP value, and market share of Indonesian cashew nuts based on ECI value. However Indonesia tends to be exporter country and have good market share. Strategy of export competitiveness on cashew nuts can be applied by extending trade cooperation by joining and taking active role in the world trade organization, increasing cashew nuts productivity and socialization of information about international market of cashew nuts about international market of cashew nuts, exporting procedures, cashew nuts export, import policies, and other rules related to transaction of cashew nuts export-import to all stakeholders.
Empirical Analysis of Human Capital Convergence in Indonesia
Authors: Anwar Aminuddin 
Published: April 2020

This research analyzes the convergence hypothesis that applied to human capital which is one of important factor for economic development. This model applied to analyze the condition of provinces in Indonesia that have different conditions of human capital between regions for 33 provinces in Indonesia for two period between 2004 to 2010 and 2010 to 2016. This study uses data panels in estimating with fixed effects model as the best model choice. The result of the analysis for sigma convergence model is a decrease of global dispersion of human capital growth in Indonesia for the both periods. The results of beta convergence confirm the existence of absolute and conditional convergence model for the both periods. The determinants of human capital convergence in first period are economic growth, poverty, illiteracy, access to sanitation, access to clean water, number of health centers, and number of universities. Meanwhile different conditions are shown in the second period where the determinants of conditional convergence of human capital are determined only by economic growth, poverty, and sanitation access.
Does the Volatility of Macroeconomic Variables Depress The Profitability of Islamic Banking?
Authors: Widarjono Agus 
Published: April 2020

Islamic banking in Indonesia has been growing rapidly since 2010. The profitability of Islamic bank depends on Islamic bank characteristics and macroeconomic condition. As a country with an open economy, macroeconomic conditions are very volatile. Through the theory of exchange rate pass through, the exchange rate fluctuation affects domestic prices so that it affects the profits of Islamic bank. This study analyzes the impact of the instability of the macroeconomic variables, namely the exchange rate and inflation on the profitability of Islamic bank. The instability of inflation and exchange rate are measured using the GARCH (Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity). This study applies ARDL (Autoregressive Distributed Lag Model). The data used is monthly data starting from January 2011 to June 2018. The results of the study show that the exchange rate and inflation instability depress the profitability of Islamic banki. More interestingly, instability of inflation has a greater negative impact than the instability of exchange rate on Islamic bank profit. The most Islamic bank characteristics influencing Islamic banking profit was bad financing as known as a non performing financing (NPF).

Published: April 2020

OBJECTIVE:
To identify variables associated with return visits to the hospital within 7 days after discharge.

METHODS:
We performed a retrospective study of 7-day revisits and readmissions between October 2012 and September 2015 using the Pediatric Health Information System database supplemented by electronic medical record data from a tertiary-care children’s hospital. We examined factors associated with revisits among the top 10 most frequent indications for hospitalization using generalized estimating equations.

RESULTS:
There were 736 (4.2%) revisits and 416 (2.3%) readmissions within 7 days. Predictors of 7-day revisits and readmissions included age, length of hospital stay, and presence of a chronic medical condition. In addition, insurance status was associated with risk of revisits and race was associated with risk of readmissions in the bivariate analysis.

CONCLUSIONS:
In this study, we identified patient characteristics that may be associated with a higher risk of early return to the emergency department and/or readmissions. Early identification of this at-risk group of patients may provide opportunities for intervention and enhanced care coordination at discharge.
Antibiotic Timing in Pediatric Septic Shock
Authors: Lane Roni D. , Olson Jared , Reeder Ron , Miller Benjamin , Workman Jennifer K. , Thorell Emily A. , Larsen Gitte Y. 
Published: April 2020

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:National guidelines advocate for the administration of antibiotics within 1 hour to children with septic shock, although there is variance in the pediatric evidence-based literature supporting this benchmark. Our objective for this study was to describe the association of target time to antibiotic administration (TTAA) with outcomes of children treated for suspected septic shock in a pediatric emergency department. Septic shock is suspected when signs of perfusion and/or hypotension are present. The primary outcome was mortality. Secondary outcomes included PICU admission, hospital and PICU length of stay, and organ dysfunction resolution by hospital day 2.METHODS:We conducted a retrospective study of children &lt;18 years of age admitted from the pediatric emergency department and treated for suspected septic shock between February 1, 2007, and December 31, 2015. Associations between TTAA and outcomes were evaluated by using multivariable linear and logistic regression models obtained from stepwise selection.RESULTS:Of 1377 patients, 47% were boys with a median age of 4.0 (interquartile range 1.4–11.6) years, 1.5% (20) died, 90% were compliant with TTAA goals, 40% required PICU admission, 38% had ≥2 unique complex chronic conditions, 71% received antibiotics in ≤2 hours, and 30% had a culture-positive bacterial etiology. There were no significant associations between TTAA and outcomes.CONCLUSIONS:We found no association with TTAA and any clinical outcomes, adding to the growing body of literature questioning the timing benchmark of antibiotic administration. Although the importance of antibiotics is not in question, elucidating the target TTAA may improve resource use and decrease inappropriate or unnecessary antibiotic exposure.
Anticipating Pediatric Patient Transfers From Intermediate to Intensive Care
Authors: Cheng Daryl R. , Hui Caitlyn , Langrish Kate , Beck Carolyn E. 
Published: April 2020

OBJECTIVES:
To explore characteristics of patients who were admitted to the intermediate care (IC) unit at a tertiary academic institution. In particular, we sought to compare the characteristics of IC patients who were transferred with the characteristics of those who were not transferred to PICU care and evaluate predictors of patient transfer.

METHODS:
Data were collected on all admitted IC patients between July 2016 and June 2018. Patients whose index IC admission was from the PICU were excluded. Data collected included demographics and physiologic characteristics: heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature, oxygen therapy, as well as Bedside Pediatric Early Warning System (BPEWS) score.

RESULTS:
In this time period, 427 eligible patient visits occurred, with 66 patients (15.46%) being transferred to the PICU. Patients were commonly transferred early in their IC course (1.41 days into admission [0.66–3.87]); transferred patients had higher median admission BPEWS scores (7 [4.25–9] vs 5 [3–7]; P &lt; .01). In the univariate analysis, no individual physiologic characteristic was predictive for transfer. In the multivariate analysis, BPEWS (P &lt; .001) and need for any form of respiratory support (P = .04) were significant predictive factors for transfer (R2 = 0.56).

CONCLUSIONS:
The need for close monitoring of physiologic parameters remains paramount, especially in the first 48 hours of admission, in predicting the need for transfer from the IC to PICU. The need for any form of respiratory support is predictive of transfer. Situational awareness and assessment including BPEWS score is of critical importance.
