The First Italo-Ethiopian Clash over the Control of Eritrea and the Origins of Rome's Imperialism
Authors: Mavropoulos Nikolaos 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
In the wake of Italy's unification, the country's expansionist designs were aimed, as expected, toward the opposite shore of the Mediterranean. The barrage of developments that took place in this strategic area would shape the country's future alliances and colonial policies. The fear of French aggression on the coast of North Africa drove officials in Rome to the camp of the Central Powers, a diplomatic move of great importance for Europe's evolution prior to World War I. The disturbance of the Mediterranean balance of power, when France occupied Tunisia and Britain held Cyprus and Egypt, the inability to find a colony in proximity to Italy, and a series of diplomatic defeats led Roman officials to look to the Red Sea and to provoke war with the Ethiopian Empire.
Zheng Nengliang and Pedagogies of Affect in Contemporary China
Authors: Hizi Gil 
Published: July 2021

AbstractThis article examines the role of affect in market-driven self-cultivation. Drawing on a study of extracurricular workshops for interpersonal skills in urban China, I describe programs that prioritize momentary excitement, associated with the state-endorsed colloquialismzheng nengliang(positive energy), while distinguishing this experience from the common registers of the exterior world. I define these settings as ‘pedagogies of affect’, activities that bring to the fore the short-lived and indeterminant attributes of affect without coherently serving discursive ideologies in trajectories of social engineering or neoliberal governmentality. This phenomenon demonstrates how the expansion of market-driven expertise for ‘person-making’ to new social groups globally reinforces ethical disjunctures between different social domains, as well as between individuals’ practical and aspirational pursuits.
Oneness and ‘the church in Taiwan’
Authors: Breen Gareth Paul 
Published: July 2021

AbstractWorldwide followers of the late Chinese Christian reformers Watchman Nee and Witness Lee share a central concern with human-divine ‘oneness’, but there are different understandings in different localities about how such oneness works. I utilize one such difference by analyzing group unity in Euro-America using Taiwanese understandings of oneness, which involve things (selfsame unities) but not relations. Experimenting with Dumontian, Strathernian, and object-oriented anthropologies, I show that anthropological analysis is currently possible (a) by emphasizing things, (b) by emphasizing relations, and (c) entirely without relations. Anthropology entirely without things, however, has not yet been achieved. I conclude by suggesting reasons why we might want to attain this final possibility in our approach to things and/or relations.
Troska Kościoła o pokój. Perspektywa teologicznomoralna
Authors: Gocko Jerzy 
Published: July 2021

Artykuł ukazuje z perspektywy teologicznomoralnej najważniejsze aspekty zaangażowania Kościoła na rzecz pokoju. Wstępne rozważania na temat istoty pokoju, odniesione do kategorii dobra wspólnego oraz postrzegające pokój jako istotny element ładu społecznego, który ze swej natury ma charakter ładu moralnego, ukierunkowały główny nurt refleksji na wymiar personalistyczny i etyczny. Z kolei powiązanie pokoju i prawdy pozwoliły powiązać go z ideą praw człowieka. Wskazano także na konieczność odideologizowania troski o pokój, co charakteryzuje niektóre współczesne nurty pacyfistyczne. Naukowe analizy potwierdziły, że katolicka koncepcja pokoju zbudowana jest na bazie antropologii personalistycznej. Fundamentem pokoju, na którym nabudowane jest całe życie społeczne, jest osoba ludzka.
Inspiracje encykliki "Laudato si'" dla duszpasterstwa
Authors: Fiałkowski Marek 
Published: July 2021

Encyklika pt. "Laudato si'. W trosce o wspólny dom" jest pierwszym tak wysokiej rangi dokumentem Kościoła katolickiego poświęconym problematyce ochrony środowiska. Wpisuje się w ona posoborowe nauczanie Kościoła dotyczące szeroko pojętej kwestii ekologicznej, którą uznaje się za „znak czasu”. Papież Franciszek nie tylko wykorzystuje dorobek swoich poprzedników, ale także wnosi charakterystyczne elementy znamionujące jego pontyfikat. Zagadnienie ochrony środowiska, będące częścią nauczania społecznego Kościoła, jest również ważnym wyzwanie dla duszpasterskiej działalności Kościoła. Artykuł jest próbą odpowiedzi na pytanie jakie inspiracje dla współczesnego duszpasterstwa Kościoła przynosi nauczanie encykliki pt. "Laudato si'?" Poszukując odpowiedzi na tak postawiony problem wybrano i omówiono cztery inspiracje dla duszpasterstwa: teologiczny wymiar środowiska naturalnego, który w rozważaniach o problemach ekologicznych jest często pomijany, a tymczasem dopiero w świetle Objawienia środowisko naturalne ukazuje się w nowych i pełniejszych wymiarach; nawrócenie ekologiczne, które umieszcza kryzys ekologiczny w perspektywie moralnej; zagrożenia konsumpcjonizmu, który należy traktować jako postawę antyekologiczną, szkodliwą dla człowieka i środowiska naturalnego; kształtowanie postawy szacunku dla świata, wyrażającą się w przywróceniu należnego miejsca Bogu w życiu człowieka oraz umiarem i pokorą wobec środowiska naturalnego.

: Salah satu upaya untuk meningkatkan kinerja kincir angin sumbu vertikal khususnya di putaran adalah dengan melakukan modifikasi atau pengembangan berupa pemasangan sudu pengarah. Dengan pemasangan sudu pengarah diharapkan dapat mengurangi torsi negatif yang dihasilkan dan mengarahkan angin ke sudu cekung kincir. Rumusan masalah yang akan di selesaiakn dalam penelitian ini adalah bagaimana mengetahui karakteristik putaran kincir angin sumbu vertikal kelengkungan 90Â° dengan dengan adanya penembahan sudu pengarah. Pengujian karakteristik putaran kincir angin dilakukan secara eksperimen, yaitu dengan melakukan pengamatan atau pengukuran terhadap variabel yang ditentukan untuk mengetahui karakteristik putaran kincir angin sumbu vertikalÂ tipe sudu 90 Â°Â dengan sudu pengarah . Pengamatan dilakukan pada kecepatan angin yang berbeda dengan variasi posisi sudu pengarah. Variasi yang dimaksud adalah posisi pembukaan dari 0Ëš sampai 50Ëš pada kecepatan angin 3,2 m/s sampai 4,2 m/s. Hasil penelitian untuk kecepatan angin yang berbeda, diperoleh bahwa pada kecepatan angin 4,2 m/s pada pembukaan sudu pengarahÂ 50Â° nilai putaran poros tertinggiÂ 96,2 rpm dan untuk kecepatan angin terendah 3,2 m/s pada pembukaan sudu pengarah 50Â° diperoleh nilai putaran poros kincir terendah 63,3 rpm. Jadi pengaruh dari sudu pengarah yang dipasang adalah semakin besar pembukaan sudu yang diberikan maka putaran poros kincir juga akan semakin besar. Selain itu semakin besar kecepatan angin yang diberikan putaran kincir yang dihasilkan juga akan semakin besar.Â
EFEITOS DA PRÁTICA SISTEMÁTICA DE FUTEBOL NO DESENVOLVIMENTO DE HABILIDADES MOTORAS FUNDAMENTAIS

Published: July 2021

Estudos de corte transversal apontam que a prática de esporte de forma sistematizada auxilia no desenvolvimento das habilidades motoras fundamentais (HMF). Neste tipo de delineamento não se pode afirmar que a prática do esporte auxiliou as crianças no seu desenvolvimento motor, ou se as crianças procuraram a prática de um esporte por terem desenvolvimento motor alto. O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar os efeitos da prática sistemática de futebol no desenvolvimento de habilidades motoras fundamentais a partir de um delineamento longitudinal. Participaram do estudo 10 meninos, sendo 04 iniciantes na prática sistematizada de futebol (GPF= 6,65±0,39 anos) e 06 sedentários (GC=6,42±0,44). O GPF realizava além das aulas de Educação Física, prática orientada de futebol duas vezes por semana, uma hora/dia. O GC realizava apenas aulas de educação física escolar. Utilizou-se como medidas o escore padrão locomotor e de controle de objetos do Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD-2). Os grupos realizaram o primeiro teste no início do ano e, após 6 meses, realizaram o segundo teste. O teste U de Mann Whitney não apontou diferença significante entre os grupos antes ou após intervenção em nenhuma das variáveis (p>0,05). O teste de Wilcoxon, com correção de Bonferroni (p<0,025), não apontou diferença significante entre pré e pós-teste para nenhum dos grupos (p>0,05). Estes resultados indicam que as habilidades do futebol (especializadas), podem não beneficiar o desenvolvimento de HMF, confirmando a ideia de hierarquia do desenvolvimento. Estudos futuros podem analisar a qualidade das aulas oferecidas, diferentes tempos de intervenção e uma amostra maior.
Energy Balance of a Low Energy House with Building Structures with Active Heat Transfer Control
Authors: Kalús Daniel , Straková Zuzana , Kubica Matej 
Published: July 2021

A qualitatively new dimension has been introduced to the issue of building structures for energy-efficient buildings by the system of Active Thermal Insulation (ATI), which is already applied in the construction of such buildings. ATI are embedded pipe systems in the envelope structures of buildings, into which we supply a heat-carrying medium with adjusted temperature, so this constitutes a combined building-energy system. This introduces the concept of an internal energy source understood as an energy system integrated into the zone between the static part and the thermal insulation part of the building structure envelope. Under certain conditions, the ATI can serve as a heat recuperator or as an energy collector for a heat pump application. ATI consists of pipe systems embedded in building structures, in which the medium circulates heated by energy from any heat source. The function of the system is to reduce or eliminate heat losses through non-transparent structures in the winter and at the same time to reduce or eliminate heat gains in the summer. It is especially recommended to apply heat sources using renewable energy sources due to the required low temperatures of the heating medium and thus shorten the heating period in the building. Also recommended is to apply ATI for the use of waste heat. Buildings with a given system show low energy consumption and therefore meet the requirements of Directive no. 2018/844/EU, according to which, from 01.01.2021, all new buildings for housing and civic amenities should have energy needs close to zero.
THE HYBRID SUBISCHIAL SOCKET FOR PERSONS WITH TRANSFEMORAL AMPUTATION: GAIT PARAMETERS AND CLINICAL ASSESSMENT OF A CASE SERIES
Authors: Pellegrini Roberto , Denza Gabriele , Brunelli Stefano , Zenardi Daniele , Imperio Matteo , Vannozzi Giuseppe , Traballesi Marco 
Published: July 2021

BACKGROUND: The subischial socket interface design is a promising new shape of socket for persons with transfemoral amputation. Typically, the proximal trim line is located distal to the ischial tuberosity, improving comfort in prosthetic users without interfering with gait parameters compared to Ischial Containment Socket (ICS). No studies have investigated the performances of a subischial sockets with suction suspension system. A new subischial socket (Hybrid Subischial Socket - HySS) combined with a hypobaric passive suspension system has been recently developed.
OBJECTIVE: To assess the effects of HySS in terms of comfort, hip range-of-motion and gait parameters.
METHODOLOGY: Three persons with transfemoral amputation were tested first using their usual ICS and then after one month of continuous use of HySS.
FINDINGS: The following parameters improved in all participants using HySS: 1) hip range-of-motion, 2) walking speed and distance, 3) Timed-Up-and-Go-Test time, 4) stride length, 5) double support duration, 6) peak value of hip extension during stance, 7) satisfaction with the prosthesis.
CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that the use of HySS could allow improvements for prosthetic use.
Layman’s Abstract
This case series describes the effects of a subischial socket combined with a hypobaric suction suspension system for persons with transfemoral amputation. This socket has the proximal trim line located distally to the ischial tuberosity and it does not interact with the pelvis. The results have shown that this socket may improve the overall prosthetic comfort, hip range of motion and some gait parameters compared to the conventional ischial containment socket.

Published: July 2021

Background: Mass coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination to achieve herd immunity is an effective means to mitigate the current COVID-19 pandemic. Reports of COVID-19 vaccine-associated allergic reactions and lack of clear local guidance are contributing factors leading to a low vaccine acceptance rate in the community. A task force of experts from the Hong Kong Institute of Allergy (HKIA) has been formed to address current needs.Objective: To formulate a set of consensus statements (CS) on COVID-19 vaccine allergy safety (VAS) in Hong Kong.Methods: A nominated task force of experts managing patients with drug and vaccine allergies in Hong Kong formulated the CS by the Delphi method. An agreement was a priori defined as ≥80% consensus.Results: A total of 11 statements met the criteria for consensus with good overall agreement among task force members, including seven statements on pre-vaccination recommendations and four statements on vaccination and post-vaccination guidance. Individuals with a history of suspected allergic reaction to prior COVID-19 vaccination should not receive further COVID-19 vaccination, and other groups at risk of COVID-19 vaccine-associated allergic reactions have been identified. The importance of pre-vaccination and post-vaccination assessment by frontline healthcare workers and evaluation by allergists are highlighted.Conclusion: The CS provides pragmatic and timely guidance for local frontline healthcare providers on decisions regarding COVID-19 VAS.

Published: July 2021

BackgroundSevere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a novel coronavirus that has caused the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) all over the world. In the absence of appropriate antiviral drugs or vaccines, developing a simple, rapid, and reliable assay for SARS-CoV-2 is necessary for the prevention and control of the COVID-19 transmission.MethodsA novel molecular diagnosis technique, named multiplex reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification, that has been linked to a nanoparticle-based lateral flow biosensor (mRT-LAMP-LFB) was applied to detect SARS-CoV-2 based on the SARS-CoV-2 RdRp and N genes, and the mRT-LAMP products were analyzed using nanoparticle-based lateral flow biosensor. The mRT-LAMP-LFB amplification conditions, including the target RNA concentration, amplification temperature, and time were optimized. The sensitivity and specificity of the mRT-LAMP-LFB method were tested in the current study, and the mRT-LAMP-LFB assay was applied to detect the SARS-CoV-2 virus from clinical samples and artificial sputum samples.ResultsThe SARS-CoV-2 specific primers based on the RdRp and N genes were valid for the establishment of mRT-LAMP-LFB assay to detect the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The multiple-RT-LAMP amplification condition was optimized at 63°C for 30 min. The full process, including reaction preparation, viral RNA extraction, RT-LAMP, and product identification, could be achieved in 80 min. The limit of detection (LoD) of the mRT-LAMP-LFB technology was 20 copies per reaction. The specificity of mRT-LAMP-LFB detection was 100%, and no cross-reactions to other respiratory pathogens were observed.ConclusionThe mRT-LAMP-LFB technique developed in the current study is a simple, rapid, and reliable method with great specificity and sensitivity when it comes to identifying SARS-CoV-2 virus for prevention and control of the COVID-19 disease, especially in resource-constrained regions of the world.

Published: July 2021

BackgroundBrain metastases (BMs) indicate poor outcomes and are commonly excluded in immunotherapy clinical trials in advanced lung cancer; moreover, the effect of BM status on immunotherapy efficacy is inconsistent and inconclusive. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to assess the influence of BM status on immunotherapy efficacy in advanced lung cancer.MethodsElectronic databases and all major conference proceedings were searched without language restrictions according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines. We extracted randomized clinical trials on lung cancer immunotherapy that had available overall survival (OS) and/or progression-free survival (PFS) data based on the BM status. All analyses were performed using random effects models.ResultsFourteen randomized clinical trials with 9,089 patients were identified. Immunotherapy conferred a survival advantage to BM patients [OS-hazard ratio (HR), 0.72; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.58–0.90; P = 0.004; and PFS-HR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.52–0.87, P = 0.003]. Non-BM patients could also derive a survival benefit from immunotherapy (OS-HR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.71–0.80; P &lt;0.001; and PFS-HR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.56–0.82, P &lt;0.001). The pooled ratios of OS-HRs and PFS-HRs reported in BM patients versus non-BM patients were 0.96 (95% CI, 0.78–1.18; P = 0.72) and 0.97 (95% CI, 0.79–1.20; P = 0.78), respectively, indicating no statistically significant difference between them. Subsequent sensitivity analyses did not alter the results. Subgroup analyses according to tumor type, line of therapy, immunotherapy type, study design, and representation of BM patients reconfirmed these findings.ConclusionWe demonstrated that BM status did not significantly influence the immunotherapy efficacy in lung cancer, suggesting that both BM and non-BM patients could obtain comparable benefits.Systematic Review Registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/, identifier (CRD42020207446).
