Implementation of virtual reference points in registering scanning images of tall structures
Authors: Grzegorz Granek , Cezary Toś , Bogdan Wolski 
Published: September 2020

AbstractThe concept of obtaining uniform and high-precision 3D models of large and complex engineering structures based on terrestrial laser scanning surveys highly depends on the accuracy of registering a series of adjacent scans. If it is not possible to place the required number of reference points in the observation scene, and there are no identifiable structural elements that could serve as such reference points, the issue can be solved by using the virtual reference points. The virtual reference points are not marked, but their position can be re-created in the post-processing of the scans on the basis of the geometrical features of the object. In the case of an industrial chimney, these can be the structural axis points determined at arbitrarily selected altitudes. In the solution presented herein, the coordinates of the reference points were independently determined twice: in the geodetic coordinate system using traditional method, in the local system of the scanner using the bisector of the chord of the circle, and by approximation of the circular arc shape of the chimney shell. Both procedures are preceded by the filtration of outliers. The concept of virtual reference points was verified by the measurement of the verticality of the axis and the structural geometry of a steel industrial chimney, which was accessible only on the foundation level.

Abstract

Objectives
Despite the low incidence of pancreatic injury in the abdominal blunt trauma (BTA), its early diagnosis is very important; since pancreatic injury is associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. However, due to the high association of pancreatic injury with injury of other abdominal organs, its diagnosis may be delayed and complicated. The use of imaging modalities is also subject to limitations for reasons such as cost, unavailability, and harmfulness. Consequently, the present study aimed to investigate the predictive role of amylase and lipase enzyme levels in the final diagnosis of pancreatic injury in patients with BTA.

Methods
In a prospective diagnostic study, 384 patients with BTA referring to Imam Khomeini hospital of Sari (north of Iran) were enrolled according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Initial patient data including age and sex were recorded. Blood samples were analyzed in the laboratory to measure complete blood count (CBC), amylase and lipase enzyme levels. Patients were followed up during hospitalization and focal ultrasound for abdominal trauma (FAST), CT-Scan and laparotomy results were recorded. Finally, the data was analyzed using SPSS version 22.

Results
The level of amylase enzyme was significantly higher in males (p = 0.04), but the level of lipase enzyme was not significantly different between two genders (p > 0.05). The most common symptoms and signs in patients were pain, tenderness, and hematoma, respectively. The frequency of pancreatic injury in all patients with blunt abdominal trauma was 7.5% based of FAST, 7% based on CT-Scan and 12.4% based on laparotomy. Comparison of laboratory findings based on FAST, CT-Scan and laparotomy results showed that the level of amylase and lipase enzymes in patients with internal organ and pancreatic damage were higher than in patients without internal organ injury (p < 0.05). But based on FAST results; patients with pancreatic injury and injury of other organs had no significant difference (p > 0.05). However, comparison of laboratory findings based on CT-Scan and laparotomy results showed a significant increase in the level of amylase and lipase enzymes in patients with pancreatic trauma compared to patients with injury of other organs (p < 0.001).

Conclusions
The results of this study showed that pancreatic injury in blunt trauma is associated with a significant increase in levels of amylase and lipase enzymes. In addition, an increase in levels of amylase and lipase enzymes is associated with internal organ damage. Serum amylase and lipase levels can be used as useful biomarkers to decide whether to perform CT-Scan or laparotomy.
The position of object pronouns in the German middlefield
Authors: Bader Markus 
Published: September 2020

AbstractThis paper presents a corpus study of the position of object pronouns relative to a non-pronominal subject in embedded clauses of German. A total of 4322 embedded clauses from the deWaC corpus (Baroni, Marco, Silvia Bernardini, Adriano Ferraresi & Eros Zanchetta. 2009. The WaCky Wide Web: A collection of very large linguistically processed web-crawled corpora.Language Resources and Evaluation Journal23(3). 209–226), a corpus of written German Internet texts, were analyzed. In 67.0% of all clauses, the object pronoun occurred in front of the subject. Several factors that have been proposed in the literature on word order alternations were found to govern the choice between subject–object and object–subject order in the corpus under investigation. The most important findings are: (i) The Extended Animacy Hierarchy and the Semantic Role Hierarchy independently contribute to the choice of word order. (ii) The Definiteness Hierarchy has a strong effect on the position of the object pronoun. (iii) Word order effects of constituent weight, measured as length in number of words, cannot be reduced to effects of grammatical factors, nor can effects of grammatical factors be reduced to effects of weight.
Typology of motion events in Tugen
Authors: Jerono Prisca 
Published: September 2020

AbstractAll human activity including motion is construed mentally with reference to different objects and spatial relations that are relevant (Waliński 2014). Following the work of Talmy (1985, 2000) on categorization of languages on the basis of motion events into verb framed languages and satellite framed languages, this paper addresses the typology of the Tugen language regarding motion events. It takes into consideration the reclassification of the V-languages into equipollent frame and the doubling frame, (Slobin 2003; Croft et al. 2010). Further it explores the hybrid system as expounded by Schröder (2016) on the categorization of V-languages so as to cater for languages that do not fit into the equipollent and the doubling frame. This paper analyses motion events in Tugen, a Kalenjin language belonging to the southern Nilotic cluster. In this analysis, Tugen is seen as both verb framed language and satellite framed as a result of prevalence of deictic directionals and the applicative. The language also bears an associated motion affix which relates simultaneous motion to non-motion events. The associated motion affix renders the motion events to be satellite framed. The occurrence of deictic directionals on motion events that are verb framed can also be taken to be instances of doubling frame.
Setting the agenda in a distant nation: The 2016 US presidential election in a New Zealand newspaper
Authors: Kabir Shah Nister 
Published: September 2020

AbstractExamining the coverage of the 2016 US Presidential election of the highest circulating New Zealand newspaper—the New Zealand Herald (NZH)—this study argues that this newspaper sets agenda against Donald Trump—the Republican Party candidate in the 2016 US election. Examining all news, editorials and photographs published in NZH, it discursively argues that this newspaper overshadowed and dehumanized Trump and especially his leadership ability. The other major candidate—the Democratic Party candidate Hillary Clinton—was applauded in the coverage. The NZH repeatedly focused upon the activities of Trump through news, views and images to dehumanize him. The repetition, therefore, does not necessarily mean that a particular media outlet favors a particular candidate. It also argues that the media outlet of a distant nation that cannot influence its reader to vote for a particular candidate may still set the agenda in favor of a candidate.

Published: September 2020

AbstractThe objective of this paper is to determine the trend and to estimate the streamflow of the Gökırmak River. The possible trend of the streamflow was forecasted using an autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model. Time series and trend analyses were performed using monthly streamflow data for the period between 1999 and 2014. Pettitt’s change point analysis was employed to detect the time of change for historical streamflow time series. Kendall’s tau and Spearman’s rho tests were also conducted. The results of the change point analysis determined the change point as 2008. The time series analysis showed that the streamflow of the river had a decreasing trend from the past to the present. Results of the trend analysis forecasted a decreasing trend for the streamflow in the future. The decreasing trend in the streamflow may be related to climate change. This paper provides preliminary knowledge of the streamflow trend for the Gökırmak River.

Published: September 2020

Abstract
The analyzed organosilicon derivatives of electrostatically stabilized silanates belong to a group of pentacoordinated compounds. These derivatives are: 1-(N-morpholiniomethyl)spirobi(1-sila-2,5-dioxacyclopentan-3-on)at, 1-(N-morpholiniomethyl)spirobi(1-sila-2,5-dioxa-4-methylcyclopentan-3-on)at, 1-(N-morpholiniomethyl) spirobi(1-sila-2,5-dioxa-4-(i-propyl)cyclopentan-3-on)at.
In the course of the work, the extraction process and optimization of conditions for separation and determination of a mixture of electrostatically stabilized silanates were carried out using capillary isotachophoresis. Proper leading electrolytes were elaborated developed and the terminating electrolyte: 4,4’-bis[(1-morpholiniomethyl)spirobi(1-sila-2,5-dioxacyclopentan-3-on)at] was proposed. The extraction process involved the use of three stationary phases: octadecyl, octyl and phenylpropyl. The highest recovery values, approx. 94%, were obtained on the phenylpropyl column. The optimum time of analysis by the isotachophoretic technique did not exceed 12 min. The developed method of separation and determination of electrostatically stabilized silanates expands the possibility of research on biological activity of this group of compounds in aqueous solutions and surface water vegetation.

Towards an integrated approach: A sociolinguistic analysis of Monica Ali’sBrick Lane
Authors: Hammoud Dalia E. 
Published: September 2020

AbstractIn diasporic communities, switching among languages is a common practice and London is no exception. This paper examines the use of code-switching in Monica Ali’s novelBrick Lanefrom three different perspectives. It argues that Ali uses code switching (CS) as a sign of hybrid identity. Meanwhile, it contends that the main characters employ CS both as social power and as a tool of ‘emotional expression’. To achieve this aim, a new integrated approach is proposed drawing upon the concepts of ‘orders of indexicality’ and ‘polycentricity’, being sociolinguistic techniques designed to monitor different types of linguistic and cultural manifestations that signify diasporic ways of life. This approach complements an established taxonomy. The findings show that Ali makes significant use of code-switching strategies by balancing the two different cultures, thus reflecting her desire not to lose her hybrid identity. When it concerns her characters, the shifts in codes and/or varieties trigger shifts in the kind of relationships among them and their own identities. Finally, the findings reveal that ‘emotionality’ is a factor that influences code-switching and language choice.
The impact of preoperative anemia on red blood cell transfusion in primary and revision hip arthroplasty: A retrospective analysis
Authors: Poole Oliver , Bernard André , Kent Blaine , Brousseau Paul 
Published: September 2020

Rationale: Lower extremity joint arthroplasty can lead to significant blood loss, and the need for blood transfusion. The use of blood products is associated with a variety of adverse outcomes including infection, circulatory overload, and transfusion reaction. Objectives: The objective of this quality improvement study is to identify the prevalence of preoperative anemia at our institution, and elucidate its impact on perioperative transfusion in elective patients undergoing primary or revision hip arthroplasty. Methods: Data for this study was collected from four databases at our institution. Elective patients undergoing primary or revision hip arthroplasty were selected. Transfusion was defined as the receipt of a red blood cell transfusion on the surgical day through to postoperative day five. The primary outcome was the effect of preoperative anemia on transfusion rates. Results: The overall transfusion rate was 7.6%. Transfusion rates for primary and revision arthroplasty were 5.8% and 18.7% respectively. Patients with a preoperative hemoglobin between 100 and 120 g/L were 4.5 times more likely to be transfused than those with a hemoglobin between 121 and 140 g/L, and 15.4 times more likely than those greater than 140 g/L. Preoperative anemia was common, with 11.5% of all patients having a preoperative hemoglobin of 120 g/L or less. Conclusion: Preoperative anemia was common and was significantly associated with higher transfusion rates. These findings reinforce the need to optimize hip arthroplasty patients prior to surgery, where possible. As a quality control study, these findings may help direct policy regarding the deferral of elective hip arthroplasty patients who are anemic preoperatively.

Published: September 2020

Öz şefkat Doğu felsefesinde nicedir ele alınan bir kavram olmasına rağmen Batı psikolojisinde etkileri yeni değerlendirilmeye başlanmış ve son yıllar içerisinde geniş bir çerçevede araştırmalarda kendine yer bularak önemli pozitif psikoloji kavramlarından biri haline gelmiştir. Öz şefkat ile yapılan çalışmalarda kavramın umut, mutluluk ve yaşam doyumu gibi pek çok olumlu değişken ile ilişkili olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Örgütsel davranış literatüründe ise öz şefkate ilişkin çalışmaların sınırlı kaldığı görülmekte olup kavramın sağladığı olumlu etkilerin alana taşınması ile örgütlerin daha mutlu ve verimli çalışanlara sahip olabileceği düşünülmektedir. Bu bağlamda çalışmanın amacı; öz şefkat kavramı, boyutları ve ilişkili olduğu değişkenlerle ilgili kavramsal çerçeveyi ortaya koyarak, örgütsel davranış literatüründe kullanılabilirliğine dikkat çekmektir. Bu doğrultuda yurt dışı ve yurt içi literatür taraması yapılarak öz şefkatin genel bir kavram haritası çıkartılıp örgütsel alan içerisindeki yansımalarının kavramsal bir değerlendirilmesi yapılmaya çalışılmıştır. Bu kapsamda ele alınan araştırmalar, öz şefkatin örgütsel anlamda gerek yönetici gerekse çalışanlara katkı sağlama potansiyelini ortaya koymuştur.
