Wh-Questions in Translation among Arab EFL Learners: Challenges and Solutions
Authors: University Lahj 
Published: December 2024

This study focused on using of English Wh-question sentences translation into Arabic and vice versa by the Yemeni EFL learners, second year level, English Department, College of Education and Sciences, Saber-Lahj, University of Lahj, Yemen. The number who participated in this study were thirty-five learners, fifteen boys and twenty girls. This study used one academic instrument for collecting data and information (a quantitative method), that was students’ questionnaire including the translation test on English Wh-question sentences translation and Arabic Wh-question sentences translation which distributed randomly in their English classes. The major problem of the Yemeni EFL learners was the lack of understanding the accurate grammar rules in constructing English W-h questions and they faced challenges and difficulties when they translate the English W-h questions into Arabic and vice versa. The difference in the usage of the English Wh-question sentences and the Arabic Wh-question sentences (Asmaa Al-Istifham) was the main cause of the interference. Arab learners have difficulties of first language (L1) interference. The main aim of this study was to identify the challenges and difficulties of the Yemeni EFL learners encounter in translating the English Wh-question sentences into Arabic and the Arabic Wh-question sentences into English. In conclusion the researcher can say that most of the Yemeni EFL learners of second year level, English Department, College of Education and Sciences at University of Lahj made mistakes in translating the English Wh-question sentences into Arabic and vice versa, because of their week background in English and they practice translation only during the class time which was not enough for mastering the grammar rules of English Wh-questions construction. Besides, most of the learners started to study English from class seven at late ages and stages. This affected negatively on their performance in translation the English Wh-question sentences into Arabic and the Arabic W-h questions; what is called in Arabic (Istifham Al-Taswur) into English.
ПОДХОДЫ К ВОПРОСУ О «ТАЙНЫХ ЗНАНИЯХ» ЭТНОМЕДИЦИНЫ В ЭТНОЛОГИИ УЗБЕКИСТАНА
Authors: Жуманиёзова Мамлакат 
Published: December 2024

The article deals with the problems of ethnology in Uzbekistan, the attitude and approaches of Uzbek ethnologists to them. After 1991, the need arose to revise a number of theoretical issues in ethnology. One such issue is the topic of folk medicine, which was one of the more limited areas of study during the Soviet era. In particular, the question of «secret knowledge», which is an integral part of ethnomedicine, was completely limited due to its connection with religious worldviews. Despite the fact that Uzbekistan gained independence 32 years ago, the attitude of Uzbek ethnologists to this issue remains unchanged. In this article, you will learn why this issue remains open, but needs to be studied, and why.

International Migration, Globalization, and the Threatened Well-Being of Migrants and their Households in Nepal: An Anthropological Critique
Authors: Dahal Kapil 
Published: December 2024

The first quarter of the twenty-first century has witnessed that international migration from low- and middle-income countries is taking place at an increasing pace. The main focus of this article is to show the effects of such migration on the welfare of migrants, their families, along the society at large in select parts of Nepal. People migrate to relatively well-off nations from comparatively less developed ones in search of work. A brief portrayal of the migration route highlights the complexities involved in it. Moreover, the impacts of international migration reach beyond Nepal's countryside and agricultural sector to embrace towns and cities and off-farm sectors. Analyzing from the critical perspective of the anthropology of globalization, this article portrays the consequences of local-global relations in this era of accentuated mobility of people manifested through international migration. The key argument of the paper is that international migration is not contributing to the aspirations of the migrants and their households and in many respects, it has threatened their well-being. This article is based on primary qualitative data acquired through anthropological research and limited secondary data from an online newspaper.
Descemet membrane detachment after ocular chemical burns: case series and review of literature
Authors: Mandal Sohini , Jhajharia Hemant , Maharana Prafulla Kumar 
Published: December 2024

Background:
Descemet's membrane detachment (DMD) is a rare complication after ocular chemical injury and its pathogenesis remains unclear. In this study, we reported three cases of DMD with traction demonstrated on Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (ASOCT).

Case presentation:
Two patients sustained ocular chemical injury with 50% sodium hydroxide and one patient with hydrochloric acid 10%. ASOCT revealed detached Descemet's membrane in the inferior quadrant at 40 days, 36 days and 30 days after the injury respectively. Apart from receiving conservative treatment, the first case received intracameral tamponade with 12% C3F8 gas and the third case underwent amniotic membrane transplantation with symblepharon ring. However, DMD persisted in all the cases.

Conclusions:
The atypical features of DMD on anterior segment optical coherence tomography in our cases suggested the presence of an inflammatory component caused adhesions and traction to Descemet's membrane and prevented reattachment of DMD even with gas tamponade.
First clinical experience of correcting phantom‐based image distortion related to gantry position on a 0.35T MR‐Linac

Published: October 2021

AbstractMR‐guided radiotherapy requires strong imaging spatial integrity to deliver high quality plans and provide accurate dose calculation. The MRI system, however, can be compromised by the integrated linear accelerator (Linac), resulting in inaccurate imaging isocenter position and geometric distortion. Dependence on gantry position further complicates the correction of distortions. This work presents a new clinical application of a commercial phantom and software system that quantifies isocenter alignment and geometric distortion, as well as providing a deformation vector field (DVF). A large distortion phantom and a smaller grid phantom were imaged at multiple gantry angles from 0 to 330° on a 0.35 T integrated MR‐Linac. The software package was used to assess geometric distortion and generate DVFs to correct distortions within the phantom volume. The DVFs were applied to the grid phantom with resampling software then evaluated using structural similarity index measure (SSIM). Scans were also performed with a ferromagnetic clip near the phantom to investigate the correction of more severe artifacts. The mean magnitude isocenter shift was 0.67 mm, ranging from 0.25 to 1.04 mm across all angles. The DVF had a mean component value of 0.27 ± 0.02, 0.24 ± 0.01, and 0.19 ± 0.01 mm in the right‐left (RL), anterior‐posterior (AP), and superior‐inferior (SI) directions. The ferromagnetic clip increased isocenter position error from 1.98 mm to 2.20 mm and increased mean DVF component values in the RL and AP directions. The resampled grid phantom had an increased SSIM for all gantry angles compared to original images, increasing from 0.26 ± 0.001 to 0.70 ± 0.004. Through this clinical assessment, we were able to correct geometric distortion and isocenter shift related to gantry position on a 0.35 T MR‐Linac using the distortion phantom and software package. This provides encouragement that it could be used for quality assurance and clinically to correct systematic distortion caused by imaging at different gantry angles.
Exploring diazoxide and continuous glucose monitoring as treatment for Glut1 deficiency syndrome
Authors: Logel Santhi N. , Connor Ellen L. , Hsu David A. , Fenske Rachel J. , Paloian Neil J. , De Vivo Darryl C. 
Published: October 2021

AbstractGlut1 deficiency syndrome is caused by SLC2A1 mutations on chromosome 1p34.2 that impairs glucose transport across the blood–brain barrier resulting in hypoglycorrhachia and decreased fuel for brain metabolism. Neuroglycopenia causes a drug‐resistant metabolic epilepsy due to energy deficiency. Standard treatment for Glut1 deficiency syndrome is the ketogenic diet that decreases the demand for brain glucose by supplying ketones as alternative fuel. Treatment options are limited if patients fail the ketogenic diet. We present a case of successful diazoxide use with continuous glucose monitoring in a patient with Glut1 deficiency syndrome who did not respond to the ketogenic diet.
