La descortesía encubierta enlo políticamente correctohacia la mujer política en la prensa digital española
Authors: Carrillo Expósito M. Lucía 
Published: November 2020

ResumenEl presente artículo se ocupa de analizar las estrategias comunicativas de la prensa digital española destinadas a amenazar la imagen de la mujer política. Metodológicamente nos situamos en la Lingüística pragmática, en los estudios de la (des)cortesía y en el Análisis del Discurso. La hipótesis que se plantea es que los medios de comunicación que se examinan no participan en el progreso que experimenta la sociedad en materia de igualdad de género, aunque en apariencia lo hacen mediante lopolíticamente correcto. Sin embargo, se advierten estrategias comunicativas orientadas a la agresión. El objetivo del artículo, por tanto, se centra en comprobar si efectivamente existen estrategias comunicativas en los periódicos destinadas a agredir la imagen de la mujer política, en cuanto mujer, con la finalidad de desvirtuar y desautorizar su ejercicio político. Para dicho fin se analiza un corpus de textos periodísticos diferentes géneros recogidos en cuatro rotativos digitales españoles de distinto perfil ideológico-político. Los resultados muestran que la aplicación de la corrección política, el eufemismo o pseudo-eufemismo en el lenguaje del periódico junto a otras estrategias de comunicación ligadas al lector, son aprovechadas por el medio para encubrir posibles ataques dirigidos a la imagen de la mujer política.
Determinants of some special matrices over commutative finite chain rings
Authors: Jitman Somphong 
Published: November 2020

AbstractCirculant matrices over finite fields and over commutative finite chain rings have been of interest due to their nice algebraic structures and wide applications. In many cases, such matrices over rings have a closed connection with diagonal matrices over their extension rings. In this paper, the determinants of diagonal and circulant matrices over commutative finite chain rings R with residue field 𝔽q are studied. The number of n × n diagonal matrices over R of determinant a is determined for all elements a in R and for all positive integers n. Subsequently, the enumeration of nonsingular n × n circulant matrices over R of determinant a is given for all units a in R and all positive integers n such that gcd(n, q) = 1. In some cases, the number of singular n × n circulant matrices over R with a fixed determinant is determined through the link between the rings of circulant matrices and diagonal matrices. As applications, a brief discussion on the determinants of diagonal and circulant matrices over commutative finite principal ideal rings is given. Finally, some open problems and conjectures are posted
Episodic versus generic eventualities and nominals
Authors: Lee Meng-Chen , Abraham Werner 
Published: November 2020

AbstractThis paper proposes an analysis of the DP structure of Chinese in comparison with German and other West Germanic languages, particularly English. The analysis is linked to sentence structure, particularly event structure of the respective languages and the relation between nominal classifiers and sentential tense. Chinese is a language without nominal declension; German is not as other Indo-European languages. Among the inflectional paradigms, German has retained from earlier periods, and developed further, the coding of topicality in terms of familiarity and anaphoricity. While Chinese shares with German clause syntactic topicality, it does so purely in terms of clause-early and clause-late word order. German, by contrast, involves specific positions in the serial middle field to code referential familiarity, anaphoricity, and, above all, weak versus strong referential weight to distinguish, among other functions, specific versus unspecific reference. The categories involved in coding such properties in German are determiners and the declensional morphology of attributes (‘strong’ versus ‘weak’ inflection providing specific reference). This paper investigates the regularities of weak and strong reference in Chinese. The discussion yields insight into the structural coding that Chinese provides instead of what is encoded in German in morphological terms on adjectival attributes and in terms determiners ((in)definite articles and bare nouns). In the course, the discussion around mass versus count nouns and the role of classifiers is brought up and newly evaluated on the basis of the new referential distinctions.

Abstract

Objectives
Metabolic acidosis is a common disorder seen in course of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In this study, we aimed to investigate the association of Base excess (BE), Anion gap (AG) and Delta Ratio with progression of CKD, renal replacement therapy (RRT) requirement and mortality in patients with stage 3–5 CKD.

Methods
A total of 212 patients with stage 3–5 CKD were included in this study. Patients were divided into two groups according to the baseline BE level. Patients were also grouped according to the delta ratio such as non- AG, High AG and mixed type.

Results
Mean BE level was significantly lower (−4.7 ± 4.0 vs. −3.3 ± 4.3; p=0.02) in patients with CKD progression. The patients in group 1 (n: 130) (Be<−2.5) revealed more CKD progression (%53 vs. %32; p=0.002), and RRT requirement (%35 vs. %15; p=0.001). Baseline BE <−2.5 (odds ratio, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.16 to 0.91; p<0.05) and baseline GFR (odds ratio, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.90 to 0.97; p<0.001) were independently related to RRT requirement. Delta BE was independently associated with mortality (odds ratio, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.85–0.96; p<0.01).

Conclusions
Low BE levels were associated with CKD progression and RRT requirement. BE change is associated with mortality during the follow-up of those patients.
Evaluation of binary diagnostic tests accuracy for medical researches
Authors: Karakaya Jale 
Published: November 2020

Abstract

Objectives
The aim of this study is to introduce the features of diagnostic tests. In addition, it will be demonstrated which performance measures can be used for diagnostic tests with binary results, the properties of these measures and how to interpret them.

Materials and Methods
The evaluation of the diagnostic test performance measures may differ depending on whether the test result is numerical or binary. When the diagnostic test result is continuous numerical data, ROC analysis is often utilized. The performance of a diagnostic test with binary results are usually evaluated using the measures of sensitivity and specificity. However, there are some important measures other than these two measures for binary test results. These measures are predictive values, overall accuracy, diagnostic odds ratio, Youden index, and likelihood ratios.

Results
A hypothetical data has been produced based on the studies conducted on the performance of rapid tests (Specific IgM/IgG) according to the RT-PCR test for Covid 19 in the literature. An example of a diagnostic test (Specific IgM/IgG) with a binary result is given and all measurements and their confidence interval are obtained for this data. The performance of rapid test was examined and interpreted.

Conclusion
It is important to design and evaluate the performance of diagnostic/screening tests for health care. In this review, some basic definitions, performance measures that can be used only in evaluating the diagnostic tests with binary results and their confidence intervals are mentioned. Having many different measures provides different interpretations in the evaluation of test performance. Accurately predicting the performance of a diagnostic test depends on many factors. These factors can be study design, criteria of participant selection, sample size calculation, test methods etc. There are guidelines that ensure that all information regarding the conditions under which the study was conducted is in report, in terms of such factors. Therefore, these guidelines are recommended for use of the checklist by many publishers.
Thinking up an original scientific research project
Authors: De la Rosa Miguel A. 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Writing a research proposal is not a simple task if we wish–and we do usually wish!–to succeed in putting our project into practice. Three different developing stages should indeed be clearly borne in mind from the very beginning. The first stage requires you (the applicant) “To have your own idea”, thus demanding novelty and originality in the way of thinking; the second has the goal “To get your idea funded”, thus entailing project feasibility and persuasion in the way in which the idea is presented; and the third is “To run the project”, thus requiring resources and local implementation. The first step–i.e., to think out of the box, to be different, to be unique–is the most difficult task, the challenging point in the elaboration process. The importance of reading scientific literature, being aware of competitors and developing original thoughts will be discussed. And communication–from brain to brain, from yours to proposal reviewers’ mind–will unavoidably emerge as the voussoir, the wedge-shaped or tapered stone used to construct the whole project. In this context, the three pillars of the Aristotle’s Rhetorical Triangle will be discussed: ethos (credibility), logos (reasoning) and pathos (empathy). It will end with a basic, central principle as “Have the brain full up with the whole story before writing any single word on any blank piece of paper”.
Zielgruppen deutscher Kurorte und Heilbäder – eine Mikrosegmentierung mittels Clusteranalyse
Authors: Hürten Dennis , Kimmich Katharina 
Published: November 2020

ZusammenfassungDie ab 1996 durchgeführten Gesundheitsreformen führten zu einem starken Rückgang ambulanter Vorsorgemaßnahmen. Die deutschen Kurorte und Heilbäder verloren dadurch eine wichtige Einnahmequelle und mussten sich neue Märkte erschließen. Ein wichtiges Segment stellte hierbei der eigenfinanzierte Gesundheitstourismus dar. Es wurde daher immer wichtiger, sich mit den Bedürfnissen und Wünschen der Kundinnen und Kunden auseinanderzusetzen. Auch die Heilbäder und Kurorte Marketing GmbH Baden-Württemberg erkannte diese Notwendigkeit und führte im Jahr 2018 eine eigene Motiv- und Zielgruppenanalyse<fnote> Die Studie wurde mit finanzieller Unterstützung durch das Ministerium der Justiz und für Europa Baden-Württemberg finanziert.</fnote> durch. Zentrales Element dieser Studie war eine Klassifikation der Nachfrager/innen mittels Clusteranalysen. Die auf diese Weise ermittelten sechs Gesundheitstourismus-Typen bilden eine wichtige Grundlage für die künftige Vermarktung gesundheitstouristischer Angebote in den höher prädikatisierten Orten Baden-Württembergs.
Myth and Intersections of Myth and Gender in Canadian Culture: Margaret Atwood’s Revision of the Odyssey in The Penelopiad
Authors: Nischik Reingard M. 
Published: November 2020

AbstractThe first part of the article deals with the national myths of Canada. It demonstrates that the long-time supposed lack of myths in Canada may itself be regarded as a myth. After presenting useful meanings of the term myth, the intersections of myth/mythology and gender are considered, both in Canadian culture and in Greek mythology. Linking Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey—the canonized beginnings of Western literature and their foundation on ancient myth—with Canadian culture, Margaret Atwood’s works and their treatment of ancient and social myths are then focussed on, particularly her revisionist rewriting of Homer’s Odyssey in her novel The Penelopiad (2005). This women-centered rewriting of the originally male-dominated story starts from two issues: what led to the hanging of the 12 maids, and what was Penelope really up to? Among the results are an intriguing re-conception of the original main characters, an upgrading of female domestic life, and a debunking not only of Odysseus and his supposedly heroic deeds but also of the authority of ancient myths where precarious not least concerning their conception of gender and gender relations.
Undoing Differences Revisited.
Authors: Hirschauer Stefan 
Published: November 2020

ZusammenfassungDer Beitrag nimmt einen Blick zurück nach vorn auf das Konzept des Undoing Differences. Er soll im Sinne eines theoretischen Zwischenfazits den Nutzen und die Grenzen des Konzepts bestimmen und es in eine neue Reihe von Konzepten eintragen, mit denen sich die Negation und die Indifferenz von Humandifferenzierungen soziologisch erschließen lassen. Der Aufsatz begegnet der (inter)aktionistischen Reichweitenlimitierung des Konzeptes mit seiner Einordnung in drei Zeitebenen negatorischer Prozesse: (1) situative (In)aktivitäten verschiedener Aktivitätsniveaus, (2) Subordination und normative Inhibierung in der Konkurrenz von Unterscheidungen sowie (3) historische Prozesse ihrer Deinstitutionalisierung und Entdifferenzierung. Institutionell verstetigte Differenznegationen machen es unwahrscheinlicher, dass eine Unterscheidung stattfindet und wahrscheinlicher, dass sie misslingt. Sie vermehren Situationen der Ununterschiedenheit – ein Schwebezustand der Indifferenz zwischen der Differenziertheit und der Unterschiedslosigkeit einer Sache.
Radikalisierung oder die Hegemonie eines Paradigmas – Irrititationspotenziale einer biografischen Fallstudie
Authors: Jukschat Nadine , Leimbach Katharina 
Published: November 2020

ZusammenfassungDas „Radikalisierungsparadigma“ hat im gesellschaftlichen, politischen und wissenschaftlichen Diskurs Omnipräsenz erlangt. Dabei erweist es sich bei genauerer Betrachtung als konzeptionell wie analytisch schwach und mit Blick auf seine gesellschaftlichen Implikationen hochproblematisch. Der Beitrag gründet in einem wachsenden Unbehagen der Autor*innen mit dem Radikalisierungsparadigma angesichts eigener Felderfahrungen. Der zugrundeliegende Forschungskontext wird nach einer theoretisch-informierten kritischen Bestandsaufnahme zum Radikalisierungsparadigma skizziert. Es folgt eine ausführliche Einzelfallrekonstruktion einer Biografie, die auf der manifesten Ebene als klassische „Radikalisierung“ erscheint, das Radikalisierungsparadigma jedoch grundlegend irritiert und seine ‚blinden Flecken‘ und Präsumtionen hervortreten lässt. Dies führt uns im Fazit zu einem Plädoyer für einen multiparadigmatischen Gegenstandszugriff sowie eine deutlich stärker kritisch-reflexive Befragung der eigenen Forschungen und ihrer Implikationen.
Interaction of waves in one-dimensional dusty gas flow
Authors: Gupta Pooja , Chaturvedi Rahul Kumar , Singh L. P. 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
The present study uses the theory of weakly nonlinear geometrical acoustics to derive the high-frequency small amplitude asymptotic solution of the one-dimensional quasilinear hyperbolic system of partial differential equations characterizing compressible, unsteady flow with generalized geometry in ideal gas flow with dust particles. The method of multiple time scales is applied to derive the transport equations for the amplitude of resonantly interacting high-frequency waves in a dusty gas. These transport equations are used for the qualitative analysis of nonlinear wave interaction process and self-interaction of nonlinear waves which exist in the system under study. Further, the evolutionary behavior of weak shock waves propagating in ideal gas flow with dust particles is examined here. The progressive wave nature of nonresonant waves terminating into the shock wave and its location is also studied. Further, we analyze the effect of the small solid particles on the propagation of shock wave.

Authors: Naseema Kooliyankal , Ribin Kaniyamkandy , Navya Nidiyanga , Prasannan Prasoon 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Nano crystalline zinc sulfide thin films were deposited onto glass substrates by chemical bath deposition method. One of the samples was annealed at 300 °C for 2 h in air using a muffle furnace. The prepared thin films were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV–visible spectroscopy (UV–vis), photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Raman spectroscopy (FT-R) studies before and after annealing. The analysis confirmed the thermal-induced anion substitution and conversion of ZnS crystal to ZnO wurtzite crystal. XRD pattern showed that these films were phase pure and polycrystalline in nature. Optical band gap was found to be 3.86 eV for ZnS and 3.21 eV for ZnO. The films prepared by this simple, low-cost technique are suitable for photovoltaic and optoelectronic applications.

Published: November 2020

Abstract
The phytochemical and biological properties of tangerine (Citrus reticulata L.), grapefruit (Citrus paradisi L.), lemon (Citrus lemon L.) and cinnamon (Cinnamomum zeylanicum Blume) essential oils were examined. The chemical composition of the essential oils determined using chromatography analysis revealed that D-limonene and cis-cinnamaldehyde were the main components. The antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of the essential oils have been studied by the DPPH radical-scavenging assay and the disc-diffusion method, respectively. All essential oils had antimicrobial activity against saprophytic (Bacillus subtilis, Penicillium chrysogenum, Fusarium moniliforme, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus flavus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and pathogenic microorganisms (Escherichia coli, Salmonella abony, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans), with the highest inhibitory activity being observed in cinnamon oil, followed by grapefruit zest oil, tangerine zest oil and lemon zest oil; the MIC ranging from 6 to 60 ppm. In addition, they exhibited high antioxidant activity with the highest antioxidant activity being determined for the grapefruit zest essential oil, followed by the lemon zest essential oil, the tangerine zest essential oil and the cinnamon essential oil. The demonstrated promising results for the antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of the studied essential oils would give reason for their inclusion in the development of bio-preservation strategies for food emulsion preservation.

Abstract
A number of organic dye compounds is developed and used as dye-sensitized solar cells in order to produce cost-effective devices and enhance cell performance. In this aspect, phenothiazine based organic dye compounds such as (E)-3-(7-bromo-10-phenyl-10H-phenothiazine-3-yl) acrylic acid and (E)-3-(7-bromo-10-phenyl-10H-phenothiazine-3-yl)-2-cyanoacrylic acid have been synthesized. The synthesized dye compounds have been characterized through Fourier-transform infrared, Fourier-transform Raman and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic method. The Ultraviolet–Visible spectra were recorded and electronic features were discussed with the theoretically calculated bands using time-dependent density functional theory. Frontier molecular orbital, natural bond orbital and non-linear optical properties have been calculated for these compounds using density functional theory. The photosensitization properties such as light harvesting efficiency and electron injection driving force (∆G
inject) have also been discussed.
Simple metathesis in loanword phonology: the Arabic-Romance language contact
Authors: Kiegel-Keicher Yvonne 
Published: November 2020

AbstractSimple metathesis can be found in numerous Ibero-Romance arabisms compared with their Andalusi Arabic etyma. The analysis of a corpus of Spanish, Portuguese and Catalan arabisms illustrates its effects on syllable structure and syllable weight. It can be shown that Arabic-Romance simple metathesis constitutes a motivated structural change that provides for typologically unmarked syllable weight relations within the word. After the resyllabification it entails the involved unstressed syllables no longer excede the stressed syllable in weight. However, it is not an obligatory, systematic process, but merely an optional tendency, which corresponds to the universal tendency expressed by the Weight Law.
Accezioni e trafila dell’it. ant. o(b)stare
Authors: Mastrantonio Davide 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
It. ostare ‘obstruct, hinder’ is considered a borrowing from Lat. obstare. However, some Old Italian occurrences bear the meaning ‘take off, remove’, which is far from the Latin sense. After an introductory section (§1), in which methodological problems are discussed, the article analyses the occurrences of o(b)stare derived from the OVI databases (§2), containing Old Italian texts. A final section focusses on the origin of the verb and its meanings (§3).
From Racial Types to Aboriginal Clines
Authors: Anderson Warwick 
Published: November 2020

The mid-twentieth century Australian fieldwork of Joseph B. Birdsell illustrates, perhaps uniquely, the transition from typological structuring in physical anthropology before World War II to human biology’s increasing interest in the geographical or clinal patterning of genes and commitment to notions of drift and selection. It also shows that some morphological inquiries lingered into the postwar period, as did an attachment to theories of racial migration and hybridization. Birdsell’s intensive and long-term fieldwork among Aboriginal Australians eventually led him to criticize the settler colonialism and white racism that had made possible his expeditions and data collection. Yet he continued to regard Aboriginal communities as “island laboratories” and to treat Aboriginal people as convenient research subjects, distancing himself from their life worlds and experiences of dispossession and exploitation.
