Philanthrocapitalism and the languaging of empowered women in the Global South
Authors: Vepa Sudha Athipet , Pérez-Milans Miguel 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
This article explores the impact of market-driven corporate philanthropy on educational institutions and their social actors, with a focus on how ideas of English and women’s empowerment become institutionally entrenched with subject-making processes in the context of higher education in Bangladesh. While questions about how late capitalism as a global phenomenon shapes language education policy and practice have been raised and discussed widely within the applied linguistics and sociolinguistic literature, we argue that there has been less academic attention to how these logics penetrate institutions of higher education through partnerships between private universities, local governments, work industry and multinational philanthropic organisations. The potential social cost of accepting the offer or seeking social responsibility from the philanthrocapitalists for educational institutions, particularly for women in the Global South, has also evaded scholarly scrutiny in the language disciplines. Drawing from an ethnographic study of a group of women garment workers from socio-economically less privileged backgrounds studying in a private international university, the article addresses these gaps by examining the communicative modelling of the social persona of an “empowered woman”, with attention to the affects and effects involved in the process.
Scholia and marginalia as testimonia of earlier stages of the text of Lucian: three notes on the Lexiphanes
Authors: Beltramini Luca 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
The rich apparatus of scholia and marginalia transmitted in Lucian’s manuscripts can prove of vital help for the constitutio textus of his writings. On the one hand, their ancient and stratified origin makes it possible that they preserve traces of an earlier stage of Lucian’s text, both directly, through explicit quotations of lost variants, and indirectly, through hints given in the explanations of lemmas. On the other hand, they may allow us to recognise as problematic passages that otherwise would go unnoticed, especially in the case of intruded glosses which convey a coherent and not suspect text. The Lexiphanes, with its deliberately absurd and confused vocabulary, represents a perfect case study for the peculiar situation where it is hard to state whether a text is corrupt or not. In the present article, three textual passages from this Lucianic dialogue (Lex. 1; 3; 6) will be analysed. In all three cases, hitherto unnoticed errors will be detected and new corrections will be proposed thanks to the direct or indirect help given by the scholia and marginalia found in manuscripts.

Beyond the Leges Hortorum: Gardens in the Urban Landscape of Early Modern Florence
Authors: Tchikine Anatole 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
If the study of garden history, as traditionally conceived, requires a justification, a pertinent line of inquiry lies in the explication of the diverse roles that gardens played in the context of the early modern city. This discussion, however, is hindered by the anachronistic opposition between utility and pleasure, in addition to pervasive paradisiacal and pastoral associations that perpetuate a distinctly elitist image of these amenities. This article, using the example of sixteenth- through eighteenth-century Florence, challenges such assumptions by interpreting the network of recreational and productive properties within the city as an informal green infrastructure, reintegrating their narratives into the broader history of public space. By revaluating the social and economic meanings of gardens through the dual lenses of their accessibility and their productive use, this analysis shows specific ways in which they defined the urban landscape of early modern Italy, while also suggesting how they may have been experienced by nonelite visitors.
Postmortem Architect
Authors: Wharton Annabel Jane 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
This article assesses the role of the female cadaver in the design of 16 Great Windmill Street in London, the house/museum/anatomy theater complex built in 1767 by Robert Mylne, student of Piranesi, and William Hunter, man-midwife, physician to the queen of England, and first professor of anatomy at the Royal Academy. The focus on the female cadaver exposes the rigid gendering of emergent spaces of modern Western science. More important, this investigation suggests that the subaltern subject of a building might act less as a passive object and more as an active agent in the generation of the building’s program. Considering the cadaver as a participant in the planning of structures that exhibited her might prompt a broader, more critical consideration of the design role of animate objects in other building types, including abattoirs and prisons, and of the societies that produce them.
О НЕКОТОРЫХ ОСОБЕННОСТЯХ ВКЛЮЧЕНИЯ СОЧИНЕНИЙ ДЬЯКОНА ФЕДОРА В "ХРИСТИАНООПАСНЫЙ ЩИТ ВЕРЫ" ИНОКА АВРААМИЯ
Authors: Л.В. ТИТОВА 
Published: November 2024

Представлены результаты анализа отдельных глав «Христианоопасного Щита веры» инока Авраамия, содержащих тексты сочинений дьякона Федора. Обращение к 21-й и 26-й главам, безусловно принадлежащих перу дьякона Федора, позволило сделать вывод о ценности сборника инока Авраамия в качестве источника изучения творческого наследия первого поколения противников церковной реформы. Показано, что только благодаря включению этих текстов в состав сборника они стали доступны для читателей и исследователей. Глава 17-я «Христианоопасного щита веры» составлена из фрагментов произведений старообрядческих полемистов, в том числе дьякона Федора. Выявлено, что составитель сборника включал сочинения или их фрагменты, в которых были высказаны взгляды, осуждающие политику Церкви и верховной власти. Сделан вывод о компилятивности главы и работы составителя, который старался отбирать тексты так, чтобы представить точку зрения противников церковной реформы, начатой патриархом Никоном.
The paper demonstrates the results of the analysis of individual chapters of “The Christian Secure Shield of Faith” by the monk Avraamy, containing the texts of the writings of deacon Fyodor. The study of chapters 21 and 26, which definitely belonged to the pen of deacon Fyodor, led to the conclusion that the collection of the monk Avraamy is a valuable source for studying the creative heritage of the first generation of opponents of church reform. It is shown that only through the inclusion of these texts in the collection they became accessible to readers and researchers. Chapter 17 of “The Christian Secure Shield of Faith” is composed of fragments from the works of Old Believer polemicists, including deacon Fyodor. The study revealed that the compiler of the collection included essays or their fragments, which expressed views condemning the policy of the Church and the supreme power. The paper concludes that the chapter is compilative, and the compiler tried to select texts in order to present the point of view of opponents of the church reform initiated by Patriarch Nikon.

Effect of Spray Drying on Physico-Chemical and Functional Properties of Food Component Utilizing Different Carriers as Encapsulating Agents
Authors: Neelam Kumari , Ranjana Verma , Nilakshi Chauhan , Farhan Mohiuddin Bhat 
Published: November 2024

A common method for preserving fruit and vegetable juices in powder form is spray drying. Achieving high-quality fruit and vegetable powders is the main goal, which necessitates optimising spray drying conditions. Sensitive bioactive compounds are harmed by high drying temperatures; however, carrier agents shield these compounds, and other spray-drying-related variables impact the product’s physicochemical and microstructural characteristics. Encasing liquids into powders through spray drying is a popular and affordable method that can enhance product handling and preserve food constituents like lipids, carotenoids, tastes, and bioactive substances. In the food sector, encapsulation is the process of shielding food bioactives inside a tiny capsule for later release at specific locations. In addition to protecting delicate food ingredients, the carrier agents used for encapsulation may also preserve tastes and lessen volatility and reactivity. It’s a technology that shows promise for maintaining nutritional value while enhancing the solubility and oxidative stability of the active ingredient. A thorough knowledge of the characteristics and influence of the carrier material is essential to achieving those goals. The present review focuses on the potential applications of different carriers as encapsulating agents in the preservation of functional bioactive compounds and food ingredients by spray drying technology. The process of spray drying wraps bioactive substances in porous particles. Heat-sensitive compounds can be used with this procedure because of its short drying time. Thus spray drying can be used as an essential tool in the encapsulation of a diverse range of food materials retaining their functional and nutraceutical characteristics.
Vestibular migraine management by the United Kingdom ear, nose and throat clinicians: a “snapshot”
Authors: Munnings Amberley , Moualed Daniel 
Published: November 2024

Background: Vestibular migraine is a common cause of dizziness with various management options, similar to that of regular migraine treatments. This study aimed to characterise current practice in vestibular migraine (VM) management amongst ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialists across the United Kingdom (UK).
Methods: A national survey of ENT UK members regarding their management of VM was conducted. Freedom of information requests were also sent to each integrated health board (IHB) to determine if they had a migraine and/or vestibular migraine protocols.
Results: There was wide variability across ENT clinicians in their management of VM with 45.29% starting no treatment or lifestyle advice only before transferring the care of the patient to another provider. Only 4 IHBs had a migraine protocol that referenced VM.
Conclusions: This study identifies the variation in the management of vestibular migraine across ENT clinicians. It also potentially highlights the need for improved education of ENT trainees about the condition. The authors would support ENT clinicians to become involved in writing migraine protocols for their trusts, to include vestibular migraine within these guidelines.

Published: November 2024

Background: As the major part of outpatient department (OPD) comprises of diseases related to external ear, it is a need to acknowledge the topic. These diseases are sometimes seasonal and variable according to climate. Diseases may vary according to patients’ anatomy. Histopathological examination along with clinical prospective is required to remove the diseases. Advancement in radiology has made easier to determine the extension and involvement of disease. Aim of the study is to evaluate the extent of disease, its causative factors, various associations and effect of treatment.
Methods: The observational cross sectional study is done on 211 patients. Detailed study is done and microscopic evaluation is done whenever required. Biopsies and pus samples taken for the histopathological and microbial examination. The data collected and entered in Microsoft excel and analysed data is presented in from of frequency and percentage shown by pie charts and tables.
Results: Out of total 211 patients the commonest involved age group (56.4%) belongs to 21-40 years with 109 (51.7%) females and 102 (48.3%) males. 91% of the patients belong to lower rural socioeconomic status. Most common pathology found in my study was otomycosis in 95 (30%) cases. Other pathologies included otitis externa in 57 (27%) cases, auralmass in 33 (15.6%) cases perichondritis, keloid, preauricular sinus, pseudocystand EAC stenosis in descending order.
Conclusions: Aural polyps and aral masses are found to be more intrusive. Prompt consideration of such cases should be done as they have tendency of extending intracranially.

Published: November 2024

Background: Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a benign peripheral disorder of vestibular system and is the most common cause of peripheral vertigo. The aim of our study was to compare and assess the efficacy of Epley’s and Barbeque roll over manoeuvres with labyrinthine sedatives in the management of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) over a period of one month and to know the prevalence of BPPV in different age and gender groups among the two semicircular canals(posterior and lateral).
Methods-This prospective randomized comparative clinical trial included 60 patients with clinically diagnosed BPPV in a tertiary care centre and were investigated for a period on one year. The clinical diagnosis of specific canal type of BPPV was assessed based on the diagnostic tests, Dix Hallpike test and McClure test. In manoeuvre group, posterior canal BPPV, Epley’s manoeuvre was performed and for lateral canal BPPV, Barbeque roll over manoeuvre was performed as treatment. In pharmacological group, labyrinthine sedatives i.e. either cinnarizine 25mg twice a day or betahistine 16 mg twice a day were administered for one month as treatment.
Results: Results were assessed at the end of 48 hours (immediate time period) and at four weeks’ time period after the treatment, under three different outcome categories namely disappeared, improving and unchanged. Treatment of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo with repositioning manoeuvre had higher success percentage of 83.3% than the medical treatment.
Conclusion: The treatment of BPPV with repostioning manoeuvres had a better outcome than the medical treatment.
Assessment and evaluate the eminence of depth of invasion in gingivobuccal sulcus carcinoma with the use of preoperative computed tomography and to compare it with depth of invasion measured histopathologically in the resected primary tumor, with the cervical nodal metastasis
Authors: Anehosur Venkatesh Srinivas Rao , Byadgi Akshay A. , Hallikeri Kaveri 
Published: November 2024

Background: Depth of invasion (DOI) being one of the significant predictors in determining the prognosis of the disease, hence this data is available only post operatively but now with the advance technology we can assess DOI preoperatively. Here in our study, we used contrast enhanced computed tomography scan (CECT) to determine preoperative DOI. This measured data eventually helps the surgeon to plan resection of the oral primary tumor 3 dimensionally with safe margins.
Methods: Prospective study was conducted between 2019 to 2021 with patients diagnosed with Gingivobuccal sulcus (GBS) carcinoma who were subjected for resection with neck dissection procedures. Preoperative CECT scan was performed to evaluate the depth of invasion (DOI). This was then compared with the DOI measured post operatively of resected specimen by histological assessment. A cut-off value for DOI was derived, beyond which nodal metastasis was evident.
Results: Out of 51 patients 40 (78.4%) were male patients and 11 (21.6%) were female. Age ranged from 20 to 70 years. Preoperative DOI measured from CECT scan showed average value of 18.84 mm, with sensitivity of 100% which was highly statistically significant. Histopathological DOI showed average value of 7.26 mm. lowest DOI at which nodal metastasis observed was 3.4mm, so the cut-off value of DOI above which metastasis was probable decided was 3.5mm for this series.
Conclusions: Hence CECT scan showed better sensitivity and specificity in determining early bony invasion in GBS carcinomas. Thus, making DOI a very reliable and predictable prognostic factor in oral GBS carcinoma.

Authors: Spurlock Elizabeth A.Jones , Pickler Rita H. , Nist Marliese Dion 
Published: November 2024

ABSTRACTChildbirth preparedness is related to maternal health outcomes, especially those occurring in the early postpartum period. Women birthing in Ohio were recruited for a longitudinal cohort study to identify predictors of childbirth preparedness, examine associations between childbirth preparedness and experiences of discrimination, and determine effects of preparedness on satisfaction with birth. Childbirth preparedness, especially related to the patient–provider relationship, was associated with maternal race, insurance type, and experiences of discrimination. It was associated with overall satisfaction, autonomy in decision-making, and perceived respect. By understanding the relationships among childbirth preparedness, experiences of discrimination, and satisfaction with birth, interventions can be developed to decrease maternal morbidity and increase health equity.

ABSTRACT
Jeremy Giovan. 2020. The Rhythmic Pattern of Tifa in Cakalele Dance. Research. Department of Music Education, Faculty of Language and Art, Jakarta State University.
The Aim of The Study was to find out the rhythmic pattern of tifa in Cakalele Dance and to write the rhythmic patterns’ notation and to document in the form of scientific papers.. The Research Method used to compile this research is the descriptive qualitative research method which explains the research object based on interview results, literature study, and video observation. This research was conducted on July 2018 until January 2020 in Jakarta and Bogor. The Study Result proves that the rhythmic pattern of tifa in Cakalele Dance has a very important role to organize the show course where tifa is the main instrument and the most important compared to the other instruments. There is one basic rhythmic pattern as a guide to accompany The Cakalele Dance, but as time goes along with human’s creativity then new rhythmic patterns were created as the variation of the basic rhythmic pattern itself. The rhythmic pattern of tifa in accompanying The Cakalele Dance tend to be constant and stabile, so there will not be any changes of rhythmic pattern during the show. The probability of rhythmic pattern change will only happen if there is a pause in the show course. The Implicationof this research is the documentation of the rhythmic patterns’ notation of tifa which adjusted according to the hit shape as a learning and preservation source for general public especially artists and academicians who wanted to learn about the knowledge.
Keywords: Rhythmic Pattern, Tifa, Accompaniment Music, Cakalele Dance.
