Грамматика молчания в современной русской поэзии
Authors: Зубова Людмила Владимировна 
Published: November 2024

Аннотация
В статье на материале русской поэзии начиная со второй половины ХХ века рассматривается аномальная синтагматика глагола молчать и его дериватов, а также существительного молчание, безличное употребление глагола молчать, плюрализация существительного молчание. Нормативно непереходный глагол молчать часто транзитивируется, он приобретает объектную, адресную, инструментальную, векторную и сирконстантную валентности, встречается в конструкциях с зависимым инфинитивом и сам может быть зависимым инфинитивом другого глагола. Многие контексты сообщают о молчании на каком-либо языке. Современная поэзия показывает, что на молчание переносятся многочисленные грамматические связи глаголов речи и эмоций (говорить, кричать, ругаться, плакать и мн. др.), а также валентности однокоренных слов. Синтагматические аномалии встречаются также в художественных тропах и фигурах: в сравнениях, метафорах, перифразах, оксюморонах, плеоназмах и тавтологических сочетаниях. Некоторые аномалии объясняются компрессией высказываний и фразеологической производностью элементов словосочетаний. Семантика сообщения и несообщения позволяет видеть потенциальную энантиосемию слова молчать. В некоторых случаях обнаруживается этимологическая регенерация глагола молчать и его производных. Таким образом, многие прагматические функции молчания находят в современной поэзии грамматическое выражение в синтаксисе словосочетаний, нарушающем нормативную синтагматику.

Abstract
The duration of lesions is a matter of public health concern and requires the development and application of new materials to achieve satisfactory results in disease treatment. Polymeric films are promising options for controlled drug delivery, enabling improved drug delivery and treatment efficiency. The aim of this study is to develop natural polymeric films for the controlled release of mupirocin. Films based on combinations of κ-carrageenan and hyaluronic acid, crosslinked with Zn2+, were developed. Vibrational spectroscopy (Raman and infrared spectroscopies) was used to characterize the chemical structure and crosslinking process. Micro-Raman imaging and scanning electron microscopy were employed to observe the spatial distribution of the polymers and morphology of the samples, respectively. The uniformity of mass, thickness, and MUP concentration was, respectively, 0.0082 ± 0.0021 g, 0.2500 ± 0.0354 mm, and 3.751 ± 0.6242 % for film 1; 0.0045 ± 0.0009 g, 0.1000 ± 0.0224 mm, and 4.086 ± 0.3673 % for film 2; and 0.0030 ± 0.0010 g, 0.1000 ± 0.0606 mm, and 4.052 ± 0.3468 % for film 3. The percentages of antibiotics present in the films were lower than the total amount of antibiotics added (8.0 %), suggesting that losses occurred during film production. Swelling and release kinetics studies showed that the films had a good swelling capacity and controlled the drug release process. The antibacterial activities of the films against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa was determined using the inhibition zone method. The best activity was observed for the films containing 50 % hyaluronic acid and 50 % carrageenan. The results demonstrated that the carbohydrates used and crosslinking process can potentially be utilized for the controlled delivery of mupirocin.
Neoadjuvant treatment of esophageal cancer: chemotherapy, chemoradiation, immunotherapy, and future trends of therapy

Published: November 2024

Abstract
In the Western hemisphere, nonmetastatic locally advanced esophageal carcinoma is mostly treated in multimodal therapy protocols according to current therapy guidelines. In squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus, neoadjuvant chemoradiation is the favorable option. Unimodal surgical and chemoradiation treatment alternatives show inferior results on this entity. For locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the esophagus perioperative chemotherapy and neoadjuvant chemoradiation have been competing treatment approaches in the recent past. Both are evidence based (class I evidence) and superior compared to unimodal surgery. However, the latest results of head-to-head comparative therapy studies show superior overall survival results for the FLOT regimen of perioperative chemotherapy. Furthermore, immunotherapy and targeted therapy with monoclonal antibodies have become a strong focus of current clinical research. Nivolumab as well as trastuzumab are already an important part of the current standard therapies. In both entities – SCC and AC – a significant quota of patients shows a locoregional complete remission of the tumor in the specimen after modern neoadjuvant therapy and surgical resection. The addition of immunotherapy and targeted therapy to neoadjuvant therapy further increases complete remission rates in defined subgroups according to the results of current studies. Currently, three prospective randomized trials are ongoing on the subject of future possibilities for organ-preserving concepts in case of complete clinical remission (“surgery as needed,” “watch and wait”). It is to be expected for the future that curative short-term and long-term treatment results in locally advanced esophageal carcinoma will significantly improve, particularly due to the additional possibilities of immunotherapy and organ-preserving therapy concepts in postneoadjuvant complete remission.

Body composition assessment measured via bioelectrical impedance analysis in euthyroid children with newly diagnosed Hashimoto’s thyroiditis
Authors: Koca Serkan Bilge , Kirkgoz Tarik , Kara Leyla 
Published: November 2024

Abstract

Objectives
The effects of thyroid hormones on body composition are well-known. We aimed to examine the body composition of children with and without Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) while they were still euthyroid.

Methods
Between the ages of 5 and 18, 53 girls and 12 boys in each group, 65 children with HT, and 65 healthy children were included in this study. The Tanita MC-780 MA model was used to evaluate body composition parameters. These are fat mass (FM), fat-free mass (FFM), muscle mass (MM), bone mass (BM), total body water (TBW), phase angle, the ratio of muscle mass to fat mass (MFR), basal metabolic rate (BMR), and sarcopenic index (SI). Weight, height, body mass index standard deviation scores (SDSs), and pubertal status were examined. Additionally, TSH, Free-T4, Free-T3, Anti-TPO, Anti-Tg, serum lipid levels, and thyroid volumes were compared.

Results
We observed that TBW (27.5 ± 7.5 kg vs. 24.8 ± 6.6 kg; p=0.029) and BMR (1,403 ± 253 kcal vs. 1,324 ± 200 kcal; p=0.049) were higher in the HT group. These differences are due to differences in age and muscle mass in the male group. The FM, FFM, MM, BM, MFR, SI, and phase angle scores did not differ between females with and without HT in euthyroid children by the BIA method.

Conclusions
There is no significant change in body composition in euthyroid females with HT at admission.
Constant-force photonic projectile for long-distance targeting delivery

Published: November 2024

Abstract
Optically controllable delivery of microparticles excites interesting research and applications in various fields because of the noninvasive and noncontact features. However, long-distance delivery with a static low-power light source remains challenging. Here, the constant-force photonic projectile (CFPP) is employed to achieve long-distance delivery of microparticles with a low-power laser beam. The CFPP takes advantage of photon absorption to create a constant optical force within a large range, surpassing traditional tweezers. The concept of CFPP has been experimentally corroborated by remote control over micrometer-sized absorptive particles (APs) using a simple tilted focused beam. At the laser focus, strong photon absorption results in a large constant optical force that ejects the APs along the optical axis. Furthermore, the additional thermal convection field, which attracts particles from a distance into the working range of the CFPP, is utilized to collect the unbound APs for reuse. Finally, we demonstrate the concept of drug delivery by transporting a small microparticle onto a host particle at a remote location. The proposed CFPP provides a new perspective for drug delivery and heat-enhanced photodynamic therapy.
Preparation methodology for the microstructural characterization of diffusion layers in a titanium/steel composite
Authors: Grad M. , Schultheiß U. , Diemar A. , Spieß L. , Noster U. 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
Hot pressing of titanium and carbon steel leads to the formation of a diffusion layer at the interface. Depending on the carbon content of the steel used, it either exclusively contains TiC or additional other phases. In the case of steel with a medium carbon concentration (0.67 wt.% C), a pure TiC layer forms. A preparation methodology was developed to make statements about functional and microstructural properties of the respective layers such as layer thickness, porosity, or grain size. However, apart from the diffusion layer’s microstructure, it also reveals the microstructure of the two base substrates. A comparison based on electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) examinations yields similar results in terms of microstructure. A micrograph analysis based on the new preparation methodology also allows confirming the element distribution measurement by glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy (GDOES). The methodology therefore provides a way of quickly and reliably controlling the layer formation during the hot pressing process of titanium and carbon steel.
Conversion and characterizations of polypropylene fibers into adsorbent by irradiation, chemically grafting, and their uranium uptake
Authors: Sarfraz Saima , Khan Adil , Rahman Ata Ur 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
This research aims at the cost-effective conversion of polymer into adsorbent used in hydrometallurgy to extract uranium in seawater and effluents from mining sources that harm the organisms/environments. Polypropylene (PP) fibers were grafted with acrylonitrile by irradiation and then chemically converted into amidoxime by treated with hydroxylamine. The grafting success was confirmed gravimetrically. In FT-IR analysis the acrylonitrile (–C≡N–) and amidoxime (–NH2, –OH) acrylonitrile grafted polypropylene peaks are present while the peaks were absent in virgin PP. The degree of crystallinity was counted for the main peaks which come out to be 43.59 % 37.93 % and 29.96 % for virgin, irradiation-grafted nitrile acrylate, and amidoxime groups. Thermal gravimetric analysis shows a single-step degradation for virgin, while the amidoxime grafted polypropylene shows the most stability. The irradiation grafting percentage of nitrile acrylate was 35.19 %. The amidoximated resin exhibited a promising removal of almost 100 % for the 8 weeks of contact time. The selectivity of the adsorbent for uranyl ions removal offers the potential to be used in uranium extraction/hydrometallurgical processes. This innovation holds significant promise for enhancing uranium recovery and reducing environmental impact.
Discrepancies in walking speed measurements post-bed-rest: a comparative analysis of real-world vs. laboratory assessments
Authors: Grassi Marcello , Ritzmann Ramona , Von Der Straten Fiona , Böcker Jonas , Mittag Uwe , Mulder Edwin , Daumer Martin , Rittweger Jörn 
Published: November 2024

Abstract

Objectives
Understanding differences between real-world walking speed (RWS) and laboratory-measured walking speed (LWS) is crucial for comprehensive mobility assessments, especially in context of prolonged immobilization. This study aimed to investigate disparities in walking speed following a 60-day bed-rest period.

Methods
In 11 male participants, RWS was continuously monitored using a tri-axial accelerometer worn on the waist, while LWS was assessed via a 10-m walk test at preferred speed, on three different study days after immobilization. Statistical analyses included Bland–Altman and Pearson’s correlation to evaluate agreement between RWS and LWS, alongside paired-sample t-tests and univariate linear regression models to assess significance of differences and temporal effects on gait speed.

Results
Results of Bland-Altman analysis showed no agreement between RWS and LWS (mean difference 0.77 m/s) and nonsignificant correlation (r=0.19, p-value=0.3). Paired-sample t-tests indicated significantly lower RWS compared to LWS for all study days (p-value <0.001). Univariate linear regression models demonstrated a significant effect of test day on RWS (p-value <0.001) but not on LWS (p-value=0.23).

Conclusions
These findings emphasize the importance of integrating both assessments to capture comprehensive mobility changes following prolonged periods of inactivity. Particularly significant is that RWS is constantly lower than LWS, with the former being more representative as it reflects what normally participants would do when not under observation. Lastly, understanding discrepancies between RWS and LWS would allow for more appropriate rehabilitation programs to speed up recovery while simultaneously keeping the rehabilitation safe and tailored.

Abstract

Objectives
To examine the effect of the NAD+ precursor, nicotinic acid (NA), for improving skeletal muscle status in sedentary older people.

Methods
In a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled design, 18 sedentary yet otherwise healthy older (65–75 y) males were assigned to 2-weeks of NA (acipimox; 250 mg × 3 daily, n=8) or placebo (PLA, n=10) supplementation. At baseline, and after week 1 and week 2 of supplementation, a battery of functional, metabolic, and molecular readouts were measured.

Results
Resting and submaximal respiratory exchange ratio was lower (p<0.05) after 2 weeks in the NA group only, but maximal aerobic and anaerobic function and glucose handling were unchanged (p>0.05). Bayesian statistical modelling identified that leak, maximal coupled and maximal uncoupled mitochondrial respiratory states, increased over the 2-week supplemental period in the NA group (probability for a positive change (pd) 85.2, 90.8 and 95.9 %, respectively) but not in PLA. Citrate synthase and protein content of complex II (SDHB) and V (ATP5A) electron transport chain (ETC) components increased over the 2-week period in the NA group only (pd 95.1, 74.5 and 82.3 %, respectively). Mitochondrial and myofibrillar protein synthetic rates remained unchanged in both groups. NA intake altered the muscle transcriptome by increasing the expression of gene pathways related to cell adhesion/cytoskeleton organisation and inflammation/immunity and decreasing pathway expression of ETC and aerobic respiration processes. NAD+-specific pathways (e.g., de novo NAD+ biosynthetic processes) and genes (e.g., NADSYN1) were uniquely regulated by NA.

Conclusions
NA might be an effective strategy for improving ageing muscle mitochondrial health.
How to better realise the potential of automatic dishwashing to reduce the energy (and water) use in European households: introduction of a ‘short eco’ programme
Authors: Stamminger Rainer , Bockmühl Dirk P. 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
Despite the fact that dishwashers have been optimised in recent decades in response to policy requirements, consumers still use more energy and water than necessary. This has been deeply investigated by two research groups with complementary approaches and published in this journal. When translating these scientific findings into recommendations, it is essential to ensure that these recommendations can be easily integrated into consumers’ everyday lives and do not lead to significant failures or disappointments that result in compensatory behaviours among consumers and consume even more resources. In this context, the authors suggest the introduction of a ‘short eco’ programme, which is just as economical as the ‘eco’ programme, but, achieves similar cleaning results in a much shorter time when using a high-performance detergent. This would overcome one of the biggest limitations that consumers currently have when using the ‘eco’ programme. The authors discuss the possible consequences of this proposal and invite readers for comments.
NIETZSCHE E A MORAL DA TRADIÇÃO JUDAICO-CRISTÃ
Authors: Besse da Quinta Flávia 
Published: November 2024

Resumo: Este artigo objetiva colocar as conjunturas levantadas por Nietzsche ao valor histórico dado aos juízos de bom e mau, e por fim, as circunstâncias dessa moralidade afixada pelo cristianismo entabulada da tradição judaico-cristã. Inventor da psicologia do sacerdócio, Nietzsche analisa historicamente o conceito de bom da ética aristocrática e a sua inversão pelo bem na concepção do cristianismo. O bom da aristocracia guerreira é a afirmação de si como pressuposto da vida boa na imanência e o bem é a negação de si que almeja uma vida boa na transcendência. Esse ideal do nada transforma a própria miséria em doutrina, o que torna uma vida mesquinha gerenciada pela má consciência e pelo ressentimento, impedindo o indivíduo de tomar as rédeas da própria vida alienando-se à processos gregários de corpos e ideias, alegorizados em escrituras. Diante do exposto, Nietzsche conduz para uma reflexão de transvaloração desses valores, ou seja, que orienta para uma moral nobre, livre de uma moral dos escravos, a moral do Ressentido.

Published: November 2024

The present study aimed to inhibit the activity of some foodborne pathogens by probiotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in kefir. The antimicrobial effect of probiotic LAB was evaluated by using Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based models, Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS). The experiment was performed on fermentation day 0, 1, and 2, and storage day 1, 3, 7, and 10 of kefir. The average inhibition results obtained for Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli at training stage was 2.4 log10 CFU/g, 2.0 log10 CFU/g, and 2.4 log10 CFU/g in Artificial Neural Network, respectively, and 2.33 log10 CFU/g, 2.04 log10 CFU/g, and 2.03 log10 CFU/g in Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System, respectively. The average result obtained in the case of tested LAB was 4.9 log10 CFU/g, 4.8 log10 CFU/g, and 4.9 log10 CFU/g, respectively, in Artificial Neural Network in each organism; while similar result was observed in Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System. The results indicate that the activity of all targeted foodborne pathogens was reduced during fermentation and storage days by the potential probiotic LAB present in kefir. Based on the experiment, it was concluded that the activity of foodborne pathogens can be inhibited by probiotic LAB in kefir. In addition, it was suggested that probiotic bacteria in kefir are promising bio-controlling agents that can be used in the food industry.

Introduction. The environment undoubtedly affects the physiological processes in human body, which may be both beneficial and harmful. From 2011 to 2021, the incidence of female infertility in Russia increased by 30 % reaching 789.1 cases per 100,000 women in 2021.Aim: to assess an impact of environmental factors including endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDC) on women's reproductive health by assessing available publications.Materials and Methods. Available studies were searched through the scientific literature databases until April 2024 by revealing 5,732 articles in the PubMed/MEDLINE database, 6,587 in Google Scholar and 2,350 in eLibrary. The publications were selected in accordance with PRISMA recommendations. The current review included 90 publications.Results. Fertility experimental and epidemiological studies showed that environmental factors such as climate, temperature, seasonality, radiation, air pollution, diet and energy balance, working environment, bad habits (e.g. smoking), EDC (plasticizers, heavy metals, parabens, pesticides, industrial chemicals and their by-products, medicines, perfluorochemicals, antibacterial agents) may be associated with impaired female reproductive function.Conclusion. Environmental factors, including EDC, have a significant impact on women's reproductive health and can negatively affect fertility. The main findings of current research confirm a need to raise awareness of the risks associated with exposure to chemicals on women's body.
