Authors: Zanvettor Alex , Lederer Wolfgang , Glodny Bernhard , Chemelli Andreas P. , Wiedermann Franz J. 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
Procedural sedation and analgesia (PSA) is important during painful dilatation and stenting in patients undergoing percutaneous trans-hepatic biliary drainage (PTBD). A prospective, nonblinded randomized clinical trial was performed comparing different analgesic regimens with regard to the patient’s comfort. Patients were randomly assigned to two treatment groups in a parallel study, receiving either remifentanil or combined midazolam, piritramide, and S-ketamine. The primary study endpoint was pain intensity before, during, and after the intervention using the numerical rating scale (0, no pain; 10, maximum pain). The secondary study endpoint was the satisfaction of the interventional radiologist. Fifty patients underwent PTBD of whom 19 (38.0%) underwent additional stenting. During intervention, the two groups did not differ significantly. After the intervention, the need for auxiliary opioids was higher (12.5% vs 7.7%; p = 0.571) and nausea/vomiting was more frequently observed (33.4% vs 3.8%; p = 0.007) in patients with remifentanil than in patients with PSA. Overall, 45 patients (90.0%) needed additional administration of non-opioid analgesics during postinterventional observation. Remifentanil and combined midazolam, piritramide, and S-ketamine obtained adequate analgesic effects during PTBD. After the intervention, medications with antiemetics and long-acting analgesics were more frequently administered in patients treated with remifentanil (EudraCT No. 2006-003285-34; institutional funding).
Knowledge, authority, and positionality in Asian immigrant female faculty teaching diversity classes
Authors: Choi Jung-ah , Lim Jae Hoon 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
This paper is a self-reflective narrative of our teaching experience as two immigrant Asian female professors who teach Multicultural Education. Employing collaborative autoethnography (CAE), the study addresses the issues of authority, positionality, and legitimacy of knowledge claims in critical feminist pedagogy. Two research questions guided our inquiry: 1. How does a teacher’s racial positionality play out in exercising professional knowledge, and conversely, 2. How does seemingly neutral professional knowledge become racialized in the discussions of race? Major findings demonstrate the double-edged contradictions in the body/knowledge nexus manifested in our everyday teaching contexts. On the one hand, the bodily dimension of teacher knowledge is de-racialized because of institutional norms and cultures. On the other hand, there are times professional knowledge becomes racialized through the teacher’s body. Understanding the body/knowledge nexus that invites precarious power dynamics in racial discussions and even blatantly dismisses our professional knowledge, we, as an immigrant faculty of color, find it impossible to create a safe environment for participatory, critical discourse. Acknowledging our triple marginality, we put forth the concept of “pedagogy of fear” (Leonardo, Z., & Porter, R. K. (2010). Pedagogy of fear: Toward a Fanonian theory of ‘safety’ in race dialogue. Race, Ethnicity and Education, 13(2), 139–157) which squarely disrupts the idea of a safe environment in race dialog and urges teachers to confront their own/their students’ fear and create a space of teaching vulnerably.
Fighting COVID-19 in East Asia: The role of classical Chinese poetry
Authors: Chen Xi 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
In the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, new global challenges have been presented to all affected countries, underlining the importance of international communication and co-operation. This study examines a particular linguistic means, classical Chinese poetry, used successfully by China, Japan and South Korea to facilitate their intercultural relationships. Specifically, poetic texts were pasted onto boxes of COVID-19 prevention supplies. An analysis of these texts in the context of the pandemic points to their role in establishing an ‘expressive tie’ between the countries (Hwang, Kwang-kuo. 1987. Face and favor: the Chinese power game. American Journal of Sociology. University of Chicago Press 92(4). 944–974) and demonstrating emotional resonance in the midst of mixed-tied intercultural relationships. The texts also helped to conceal the requirement of reciprocity, while highlighting morality of a country for its favour-giving behaviour. Through practicing reciprocity in a culturally appropriate way, the three countries were able to promote their national image (i.e. national face). The findings provide insights into East Asian ways of managing intercultural relationships, that can be applied to navigate international co-operation for future challenges.

Philosophical Hermeneutics and Urban Encounters
Authors: Pathirane Henrik 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
The paper applies Gadamerian hermeneutics to everyday situations of nonverbal social interaction in the urban space. First, relevant aspects of urban encounters are briefly discussed with philosophical hermeneutics’ relation to nonverbal communication and bodily understanding. Second, hermeneutic understanding is presented as conversation, and the ethical implications of hermeneutics are articulated: as philosophical practice, Gadamerian hermeneutics is about intensifying the voice of the other. There is a demand for mutual openness towards otherness. Connected to this attitude required for hermeneutic encounters are the ideas of a cosmopolitan public sphere and an inclusive hermeneutic community. After attending to these, the value of specifically urban encounters can be articulated. Urban context and built environment can in good circumstances assist in encountering the other hermeneutically. The passing communicative situations can be negotiations of meanings and values, instances of public sphere. The urban mass society with its crowds has potentiality to enact an inclusive hermeneutic community. To conclude, the consequences of our failures to engage hermeneutically with each other are discussed in a plea for hermeneutic openness.
Der Mensch im Klima
Authors: Ahrens Jörn 
Published: September 2020

AbstractKaum ein anderes Thema bündelt aktuell so nachhaltig die Debatte über die Konsequenzen des unlängst ausgerufenen Anthropozäns, wie das des anthropogenen Klimawandels. Nicht nur wird die Umwelt des Menschen unabsehbaren Veränderungen ausgesetzt sein, sondern diese Veränderungen der natürlichen Umwelt sind insbesondere auch humanen Ursprungs. Anthropologie, Ökologie und Ethik werden verschaltet; die zu gewärtigenden Konsequenzen können unabsehbar sein. Damit wird der Klimawandel auch grundlegende anthropologische Folgen haben und sich etwa der epistemische Zuschnitt des Anthropos grundlegend neu definieren. Gerade aber weil Natur hier konsequent humanisiert ist, kann sie auch für die Verfasstheit der Gattung bedrohlich werden und sich gegen das Humanum wenden.
Redefining Humanity in the Era of AI – Technical Civilization
Authors: Suzuki Shoko 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
The human environment is currently undergoing massive change amid the rapid adoption of information and communications technology (ICT). ICT can be characterized as offering an opportunity to consider the nature of humanity, create new values, and foster new cultures. As humans, the question that technical innovation relating to Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Robots thrusts before us is, “What is a human?” What exactly are the things that AI will never be able to do, no matter how close it gets to human capabilities? What makes us humans, and what is it that only humans can do? This essay discusses the impact of AI technology on humans and society from the perspective of a turning point in how people perceive themselves and humanity.
Über den Menschen, der kein Tier sein will, und den Menschen auf Verwandtensuche
Authors: Böhme Hartmut 
Published: September 2020

AbstractWir leben in einem Zeitalter der Angst, im Phobozän, wie Jens Soentgen sagt, der die global grassierende Angst der Tiere vor den Menschen zu erfassen sucht. Von daher wird die Traditionslinie der europäischen Philosophie untersucht, die das Verhältnis von Mensch und Tier bestimmt, indem sie es zugleich zerstört. Charakteristisch ist dabei die Heraushebung des Menschen aus der Gemeinsamkeit mit den Lebewesen; der Mensch hat eine Sonder- und Höherstellung im Kreis des Seienden inne. Das ist sein Speziesismus, der sich schon in antiker Tradition, aber auch bei Herder und später bei Husserl, Heidegger und Derrida in unterschiedlicher Vehemenz zeigt. Dagegen werden die Tier-Mensch-Reflexionen von Montaigne als singuläre Leistung der Kritik der anthropologischen Sonderstellung, aber auch als ironische Umkehrungen der habituellen Bewertung der Mensch-Tier-Relationen dargestellt. Donna Haraway, die gern den Herzschlag der Erneuerung in einer unheilen Welt darstellt, wird dagegen mit ihrer Theorie des Chthuluzän und ihren Versuchen einer neuencompanionship, einer kulturellen Sympoiesis zwischen Menschen und Tieren als eine späte Nachfolgerin der Romantik charakterisiert. Das mag als Symptom der Schuld und der Wiedergutmachung hingehen, eine Lösung der abgründigen Störungen im Tier-Mensch-Verhältnis liegt darin ebenso wenig wie die Aussicht auf eine neue Anthropologie.
Was für ein Tier ist der Mensch?
Authors: Schwarte Ludger 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
Mein Beitrag versucht, die für die Anthropologie grundlegende Frage nach der Tier/ Mensch-Unterscheidung anders zu wenden. Zu oft wurde der Begriff des Tieres fraglos vorausgesetzt, um das Rätsel des Menschseins im Abgleich dazu zu diskutieren. Was aber macht das Tiersein aus, wenn auch der Mensch zu den Tieren zählt? Wir verstehen, das ist meine These, die Tiere, ja die Natur besser, wenn wir uns selbst als Tiere, als Natur, begreifen und von dem, was uns aus Sicht der historischen Anthropologie auszeichnet, auch auf die Tierwelt blicken. Das, was wir über die menschliche Lebensform wissen bzw. in Erfahrung bringen können, gilt es, nicht als Ausnahme, sondern als integrative Möglichkeit des Tierischen, des Natürlichen, des Biologischen zu denken.
Emotionen: Zwischen Romantisierung und Technologisierung
Authors: Seichter Sabine 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
Macht man sich die anthropologischen Transformationen zu Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts bewusst, dann sind es gewiss nicht zuletzt die Neuformulierungen des Menschen im Zuge des Digitalen. Mehr noch: Das Digitale wird in den folgenden Überlegungen nicht nur ein neuer Appendix des Menschlichen sein, sondern als Einwohner der sog. ‚Digitalgesellschaft‘ erscheint der Mensch selbst als ‚homo digitalis‘.
Aus einer kulturwissenschaftlich getränkten pädagogischen Perspektive stelle ich mir die Frage nach den Ver-Änderungen bzw. Um-Formungen menschlicher Beziehungen im Zuge des rasant fortschreitenden digitalen Wandels. Dabei werde ich weder einer nur kulturpessimistischen noch einer nur technikoptimistischen Sichtweise das Wort reden. Beide scheinen zwar mögliche und plausible Wahrnehmungsmuster im Kontext des Anthropologischen zu sein, beide bergen jedoch die Gefahren der Absolutsetzung und der Vereinseitigung. Stattdessen soll der Versuch eine deskriptive Skizzierung darstellen, an deren Ende sich möglicherweise unerwartete anthropologische Betrachtungen des Emotionalen ergeben werden.
Die alte Hoffnung auf den neuen Menschen
Authors: Oorschot Jürgen van 
Published: September 2020

AbstractKonzeptionen des Neuen und der Erneuerung begleiten die menschlichen Kulturen und Zeiten. Der Beitrag nimmt konkrete Lebens- und Textwelten der biblischen Überlieferung des Judentums und des Christentums in den Blick, wie sie in den Traditionen der Hebräischen Bibel/des Alten Testaments zu finden sind. Zum einen zeigt sich dabei eine pragmatische und auf die Förderung der Lebensverhältnisse von Gemeinschaft und Mensch orientierte Rede vom Neuen. Zum anderen gibt es ein Wissen um Neues und Vollkommenes als Wissen um einen Schöpfer, der Vollkommenes und Schönes schafft (Kohelet) sowie als Gegenbild zu Defizientem und Bösem, mit dem Bildung, Gesellschaft und Religion ringen.
Practice patterns, attitudes, and knowledge among clinicians regarding hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy and pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy: a national survey by Indian society of peritoneal surface malignancies (ISPSM)

Published: September 2020

AbstractObjectivesPerception of cytoreductive surgery (CRS), hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), and pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) for treating peritoneal surface malignancies (PSM) differ widely among physicians.MethodsThis on-site survey performed during a major oncology congress in 2019 evaluated the current opinion, perceptions, knowledge and practice of HIPEC and PIPAC among oncologists in India.ResultsThere were 147 respondents (gynecologists (30%), surgical oncologists and gastrointestinal surgeons (64%), and medical oncologists (6%)). Whereas most respondents considered CRS and HIPEC an appropriate therapeutic option, 25% would not recommend CRS and HIPEC. The main barriers to referral to an expert center were inaccessibility to such a center (37.8%), non-inclusion of CRS and HIPEC in clinical practice guidelines (32.4%), and a high morbidity/mortality (21.6%). Variations were found in the various practice patterns of CRS/HIPEC like eligibility criteria, HIPEC protocols and safety measures. Although PIPAC awareness as a novel therapeutic option was high, only a limited number of centers offered PIPAC, mainly because of non-access to technology and missing training opportunities (76.2%).ConclusionsLack of widespread acceptance, poor accessibility and low utilization presents a significant challenge for HIPEC and PIPAC in India. There is a need to raise the awareness of curative and palliative therapeutic options for PSM. This might be achieved by the creation of expert centers, specialized training curricula and of a new sub-speciality in oncology.
Luminescence spectroscopic investigations of europium complexes formed in the kaolinite-humic acid/citric acid systems
Authors: Verma Parveen Kumar , Mohapatra Prasanta Kumar 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
In the present study, the nature of Eu(III) complexes (Eu(III) was used as a surrogate for Am(III)) formed in kaolinite–humic acid (HA)/citric acid (CA) system was investigated by luminescence spectroscopy. In addition to the ternary system (kaolinite + Eu + L(CA/HA)), the binary system (Eu-L) was also looked at for a better understanding of the complexes formed at the kaolinite surface. The lifetime and emission spectra of Eu-L complexes on the kaolinite surface differ considerably as compared to the same in the aqueous phase. The Eu-HA aqueous complexation shows differences in the excitation spectra with similar decay lifetimes with increasing aqueous HA concentrations. The ligand-to-metal charger transfer (LMCT) in the Eu-HA excitation spectra suggests the complexation of Eu(III) with HA at pH ∼ 4. Although the mode of Eu(III) binding to the kaolinite surface in the presence of CA/HA was the same i.e. metal-bridged ternary complex formation, the local surroundings around the sorbed Eu(III) differ in the two cases. The loading of HA in the Eu-HA-kaolinite system does not have a large effect on the local structure around the sorbed Eu(III) ion, but enhances the percentage of Eu(III) uptake onto the kaolinite surface. The number of H2O molecules in the primary hydration sphere of sorbed Eu(III) differs in the Eu-HA-kaolinite and Eu-CA-kaolinite systems. In addition, Eu(III) assisted precipitation of HA was also seen using a radiometric method.
Spectroscopic Determination of Two Beta-Blockers – Atenolol and Propanolol by Oxidative Derivatization Using Potassium Permanganate in Alkaline Medium
Authors: Vaikosen Edebi N. , Bioghele Jeniffer , Worlu Ruth C. , Ebeshi Benjamin U. 
Published: September 2020

AbstractA simple, rapid, sensitive, cheap and accurate oxidative method for two beta-blockers in pharmaceutical dosage forms was developed and evaluated. The method involved the oxidimetric treatment of atenolol and propanolol with 2 x 10-3 mol L-1 KMnO4 in alkaline medium (pH ≥ 9). Scanned spectra of oxidized complex showed distinctive absorptions at 460, 520, 540 and 570 nm. Arrays of colour changes were observed - from violet to blue; blue to bluish-green and yellow. Exhibited colours were due to ligand-metal charge transfer. An indirect spectrophotometric determination of atenolol and propranolol was done after 12-15 minutes at 520 nm. The optimum assay conditions showed linearity ranged from 0 – 15.0 μg mL-1 for both beta-blockers (R= 0.9997 – 0.9999). Molar absorptivity values were 4.79 x 103 and 4.88 x 103 L mol-1 cm-1 for atenolol and propanolol respectively, with corresponding Sandell’s sensitivity values of 0.056 and 0.053 μg cm-2. Limits of detection and quantification were 0.50 and 1.65 μg mL-1 for atenolol respectively and 0.58 and 1.91 μg mL-1 for propanolol, while relative standard deviation for intra-and inter-day precision were < 2.0%. The applicability, accuracy and reliability of the method were demonstrated by the determination of atenolol and propanolol in tablet formulations. The recovery studies ranged from 93.33 - 103.00% for both beta-blockers and the amounts in brands were from 97.53 ± 2.68 to 100.84 ± 1.82%.

Published: September 2020

Abstract
Interest in perchlorate as environmental pollutant has increased since 1997, when high concentrations have been found in the waters of the Colorado River, USA. Perchlorate is very persistent in nature and it is slowly degraded. Although harmful effects of large doses of perchlorate on thyroid function have been proven, the environmental effects are still unclear. The primary objective of the present review is to collect prevailing data of perchlorate exposure and to discuss its impact on human health. The results show that more than 50% of reviewed works found significant associations of perchlorate exposure and human health. This review consists of the following sections: general information of perchlorate sources, its properties and determination methods, role and sources in human body including food and water intake, overview of the scientific literature on the research on the effect of perchlorate on human health from 2010 to 2020. Finally, conclusions and recommendations on future perchlorate studies concerning human exposure are presented.
Urban aquaponics farming and cities- a systematic literature review
Authors: Wirza Rahmita , Nazir Shah 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
An aquaponic system is considered to be a sustainable food production solution that follows circular economy principles and the biomimetic natural system to reduce input and waste. It is the combination of two mainly productive systems, a recirculating aquaculture system consists of fish and crustaceans farmed in a tank and hydroponic cultivation consists of vegetable cultured in medium other than soil. Both these systems are well-known around the globe by their performance of production, quality, and verified food safety. An aquaponic system is an industrious mechanism which incorporates impeccably with sustainable growth of intensive agriculture. The existing literature regarding the aquaponic production covers different species of vegetables and fish, a variety of layouts of system, and climate conditions. However, there is a lack of knowledge that can systematically present the existing state-of-the-artwork in a systematic manner. So to overcome this limitation, the proposed research presents a systematic literature review in the field of urban aquaponics. This systematic literature review will help practitioners to take help from the existing literature and propose new solutions based on the available evidence in urban aquaponics.
Why has COVID-19 not hit the countries like Nepal yet?

Published: September 2020

Abstract
Noble CORONA Virus (COVID-19) is an infectious disease similar form of pneumonia/ SARS-CoV-2- impacting globally. The fear of coronavirus looks pandemic, but its severity is uncertain. Nepal was one of the first nine countries outside of China to report a COVID-19 case. Also, its unpredictability of mode or range of surface, the lifespan of the virus, objects of transmission (a distance of air/air currents, living duration in air, humidity, duration on objects, surface). The first case was found in Wuhan in December 2019 in China. The purpose is to summarize the current information about COVID-19 and to explore in terms of why Nepal is not hitting severely, while other countries are on death toll? We summarized the published articles form the web sources and news, Academic Journals, Ministry of health and population Nepal, WHO/CDC update reports/guidelines, Google search engine. Thematic analysis is made to explore the situation. Although, Nepal has a lack of health services, testing kits, advance lab and protecting equipment (PPE), why COVID-19 does not hit Nepal than China, Europe and North America, it still tremendous uncertainty. Is lockdown, isolation, social distance and quarantine the best ways of prevention? The hypothesis is floating globally – do BCG vaccinated countries are safer than non-user OR due to not having enough kits to screen populations at risk for the virus – while lack of testing a big cause for missing case OR Nepalese have better immune systems? It has attracted global attention. We believe that the COVID-19 is still evolving and it is too early to predict of an outbreak in Nepal. The government needs to increase funding for local health departments, begin planning for future epidemics and be prepared to bolster the economy by supporting consumer spending the midst of a serious outbreak. COVID-19 is a serious health challenge for Nepal, but so far the number of death has been lower than was foretell. It is, therefore essential to carry out more scientific evidence to explore results. Nepalese health services need to maintain up than today and follow lockdown, isolation, social distance and an advance screening test kit through the country.

Published: September 2020

Abstract
The spin forming parameters of bimetallic composite pipe were optimized by FEM and experiment, and the torque and the residual contact pressure were analyzed during forming process. Adoption of The orthogonal test of four factors and five levels to gain the optimal spinning parameters (δ = 0.16mm, Ψ = 0.4mm, β = 3.0∘, f = 0.5) and the effects of factors on analysis indicators under the condition of maximum residual contact pressure and small torque. The simulation results showed that the residual contact pressure was nearly 1MPa higher and the torque was lower about 160N·m than unoptimized results. It proved that the orthogonal test method was effective for the optimization of spinning parameters of bimetal composite tube. The accuracy of numerical simulation value was verified by the drawing experiment of the composite tube.
