The Impact of Censorship on Lawrence’s Conception of “Home”
Authors: Walker Gregory 
Published: November 2024

In 1919, D.H. Lawrence left England and did not settle there again for the rest of his life. The prosecution of The Rainbow in 1915 was a crippling blow for Lawrence’s budding career as an author and it left him intensely disillusioned with his home country and the literary establishment which had condemned his writing. He would have left the country immediately were it not for the interference of the British authorities. Nevertheless, Lawrence remained inextricably tied to the country of his birth; like the characters in his fiction he was never able to completely sever himself from it. In his earliest work, Lawrence had already started to undermine and subvert the bourgeois values of his upbringing; as his career developed, and particularly after the prosecution of The Rainbow, he recognised that these values underpinned the censorship of his work, and he would spend the rest of his career writing back against the climate of censorship in Britain and America.
Le musicien ethnographe à l’épreuve de ses émotions
Authors: Thiébaud Sacha 
Published: November 2024

Cet article propose une réflexion méthodologique sur la manière dont les enquêtés peuvent confronter le chercheur à ses propres émotions. Pour mener mon étude sur la culture musicale punk en Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, j’ai intégré un groupe de musique en tant que guitariste. Dans ce contexte, les sanctions à l’égard de mon jeu instrumental ont mis en évidence un ensemble de règles de sentiment partagées. Je montre ainsi comment « jouer en surface » des émotions conformes aux attentes des musiciens m’a ouvert l’accès à l’intimité d’un groupe underground et comment la portée heuristique de cette normalisation émotionnelle m’a permis de mieux comprendre le rôle des affects au sein de la culture punk régionale.
Rome [HBO/BBC] et l’art de la contingence historique. Causalité, échelles et intertextualité au sein d’une superproduction sur l’Antiquité
Authors: Barrière Vivien , Faingnaert Victor , Salviani Clément 
Published: November 2024

La série Rome (HBO et BBC, 2005-2007), ambitieuse fresque sur la mort de la République romaine, occupe la place de dernier grand péplum du début du xxie siècle. Série la plus chère de l’histoire à sa sortie, pétrie de références aux sources littéraires antiques, Rome est une superproduction très attentive aux détails les plus triviaux de la culture romaine. Peuplée des figures incontournables de l’époque tardo-républicaine, la série se tourne malgré tout vers l’histoire populaire et suit le parcours de deux vétérans, citoyens ordinaires au destin se mêlant à celui des « Grands ». Bouleversant les codes du péplum par son ambition réaliste, sans maniérisme grandiloquent (petit peuple omniprésent, ville grouillante), jouant avec des incontournables du genre (gladiateurs, orgie, vie de palais, théâtralité), Rome offre la vision d’une cité plus vraisemblable que jamais sans abolir le carcan d’un genre difficile à renouveler. Cet article souhaite analyser la place de ces carcans dans la narration, leur rôle dans le jeu d’échelle et de causalité (petite et grande histoire – psychologie - tensions sociales) face à « l’événement » historique.
Ownership structure and capital structure dynamics in South African firms
Authors: Naidu Delane 
Published: November 2024

Background: The ownership structure can impact capital structure decisions as owners are an influential group that govern the financial decisions of firms. Hence, the ownership structure and the categories of its owners have important implications for the capital structure of firms.Aim: This study investigates the linear and non-linear effects of different ownership types (managerial, foreign, institutional, government, and family) on the debt ratios of firms.Setting: This study includes 267 non-financial firms listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) from 2004 to 2021, accounting for fluctuation in listings during this period.Method: The fixed effects model is used to estimate the impact of ownership structure on capital structure, while the Sasabuchi-Lind-Mehlum test evaluates non-linearity. Additionally, the Durbin-Wu-Hausman test is employed to detect whether endogeneity is present in this study.Results: The findings indicate that government ownership has a positive linear relation with the total debt and long-term debt ratio, while a non-linear inverse U-shaped relationship is found between institutional ownership and long-term debt, with an optimal level of 34.3%.Conclusion: The study concludes that the ownership structure is an important factor driving capital structure decisions, with government and institutional ownership directly impacting the debt ratios of firms.Contribution: This article expands the limited knowledge of the impact of ownership structure on capital structure and is the first to explore non-linear effects in the South African context. The findings offer valuable insights for boards and management that may aid them in strategically configuring ownership structures that optimise their capital structures.

COVID-19 infection and inactivated vaccination: Impacts on clinical and immunological profiles in Chinese children with type 1 diabetes
Authors: Xu Zhen-Ran , Xi Li , Wu Jing , Ni Jin-Wen , Luo Fei-Hong , Zhang Miao-Ying 
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has been linked to an increased incidence of diabetes and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). However, the relationship between COVID-19 infection and progression to type 1 diabetes (T1D) in children has not been well defined.
AIM
To evaluate the influence of COVID-19 infection and inactivated vaccine administration on the progression of T1D among Chinese children.
METHODS
A total of 197 newly diagnosed patients with T1D were retrospectively enrolled from Children's Hospital of Fudan University between September 2020 and December 2023. The patients were divided into three groups based on their history of COVID-19 infection and vaccination: the infection group, the vaccination-only group, and the non-infection/non-vaccination group. Comprehensive clinical assessments and detailed immunological evaluations were performed to delineate the characteristics and immune responses of these groups.
RESULTS
The incidence of DKA was significantly higher in the COVID-19 infection group (70.2%) compared to the non-infection/non-vaccination group (62.5%) and vaccination-only group (45.6%; P = 0.015). Prior COVID-19 infection was correlated with increased DKA risk (OR: 1.981, 95%CI: 1.026-3.825, P = 0.042), while vaccination was associated with a reduced risk (OR: 0.558, 95%CI: 0.312-0.998, P = 0.049). COVID-19 infection mildly altered immune profiles, with modest differences in autoantibody positivity, lymphocyte distribution, and immunoglobulin levels. Notably, HLA-DR3 positive children with a history of COVID-19 infection had an earlier T1D onset and lower fasting C-peptide levels than the HLA-DR3 negative children with a history of infection (both P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
COVID-19 infection predisposes children to severe T1D, characterized by enhanced DKA risk. Inactivated vaccination significantly lowers DKA incidence at T1D onset. These findings are valuable for guiding future vaccination and T1D risk surveillance strategies in epidemic scenarios in the general pediatric population.

Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND
Glomerular endothelial cell (GENC) injury is a characteristic of early-stage diabetic nephropathy (DN), and the investigation of potential therapeutic targets for preventing GENC injury is of clinical importance.
AIM
To investigate the role of β-arrestin-2 in GENCs under DN conditions.
METHODS
Eight-week-old C57BL/6J mice were intraperitoneally injected with streptozotocin to induce DN. GENCs were transfected with plasmids containing siRNA-β-arrestin-2, shRNA-activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6), pCDNA-β-arrestin-2, or pCDNA-ATF6. Additionally, adeno-associated virus (AAV) containing shRNA-β-arrestin-2 was administered via a tail vein injection in DN mice.
RESULTS
The upregulation of β-arrestin-2 was observed in patients with DN as well as in GENCs from DN mice. Knockdown of β-arrestin-2 reduced apoptosis in high glucose-treated GENCs, which was reversed by the overexpression of ATF6. Moreover, overexpression of β-arrestin-2 Led to the activation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and the apoptosis of GENCs which could be mitigated by silencing of ATF6. Furthermore, knockdown of β-arrestin-2 by the administration of AAV-shRNA-β-arrestin-2 alleviated renal injury in DN mice.
CONCLUSION
Knockdown of β-arrestin-2 prevents GENC apoptosis by inhibiting ATF6-mediated ER stress in vivo and in vitro . Consequently, β-arrestin-2 may represent a promising therapeutic target for the clinical management of patients with DN.

Design and Demonstration of a Novel Interferometric Polarimeter for Quantitative Determination of Sugars in a Solution
Authors: Ullah Rahim , Khan Raheem Dad , Hussain Ghazanfar , Ullah Rahat , Faisal Muhammad 
Published: November 2024

Accurate quantification of sugar in food and pharmaceutical products is important to achieve the desired levels of sweetness, texture, flavor, and nutritional content. This article introduces a novel polarization-sensitive interferometric method for measuring the concentration of sugar in solutions. The impact of sugar concentration is investigated by analyzing the visibility of the interference pattern using a Mach-Zehnder interferometer with an interference pattern scanning and recording system. The visibility of the interference fringes is determined by cross-sectional scanning of the fringe pattern from its center over the photodetector, followed by cut-profile analysis. As the concentration of sucrose, glucose, and fructose increases, a gradual decrease in interference pattern visibility is observed, following a parabolic trend within the broader detection range of 0–14 g/50 ml. The sensor’s performance is divided into two linear regions: region-1 (0–6 g/50 ml) and region-2 (6–14 g/50 ml). In region-1, fructose exhibited the highest sensitivity of 0.0195 (g/50 ml)−1, which is 6.09 times and 1.89 times higher than glucose and sucrose, respectively. Similarly, in region-2, fructose showed a sensitivity of 0.077 (g/50 ml)−1, surpassing glucose by 3.56 times and sucrose by 2.41 times. However, sucrose achieved the lowest limit of detection of 0.0021 g/ml, which is 2.76 times and 1.71 times better than glucose and fructose, respectively. The decreasing trend in interference pattern visibility is further validated through irradiance and optical rotation measurements of the laser beam passing through the sugar solutions relative to the reference laser beam. Results from both optical techniques demonstrated good agreement, with average deviations of 1.75%, 1.72%, and 4.24% for sucrose, glucose, and fructose, respectively. The proposed technique is universally applicable for measuring the concentration of transparent, optically active solutions and has the potential to be a valuable tool for quality control and optimization in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Published: November 2024

Ko Yo, situated at the mouth of Songkhla Lagoon, is an urban ecosystem renowned as one of the active areas of Songkhla Province. Numerous anthropogenic activities occur in this area, including homestay tourism, aquaculture, fishing, and the operation of restaurants, all of which generate significant environmental waste. Microplastics represent a widespread pollutant and have been widely recognized as a critical environmental concern. However, they have received little attention among the general public. Therefore, this study investigated the type and quantity of microplastic accumulation in the water bodies surrounding Ko Yo, Songkhla Province. Water sampling stations were established along the coastline and 1 km into the subtidal area, and sampling was conducted for a year. Microplastics in the water samples were recorded and categorized using a modified size and color sorting protocol. Samples were analyzed via Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy to identify microplastic polymers. The results revealed the accumulation of 6 types of microplastics around Ko Yo: Cotton polyester blend, polyester, alkyd, polypropylene, polyvinylchloride, and low-density polyethylene. These polymers most frequently occurred during the summer and the northeastern monsoon season. Cotton polyester blend, a synthetic fiber commonly used in clothing, furniture, ropes, nets, and cages, was found in the highest quantities across all months and stations. This update on microplastic contamination in natural environments near household areas could lead the idea of the microplastic status around Ko Yo and provide vital insights into the environmental and health implications of microplastics.

ABSTRAK
Penanganan yang tepat pada pasien stroke sangatlah penting untuk mencegah terjadinya kecacatan fisik dan mental. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengimplementasikan manajemen asuhan keperawatan pada pasien stroke non hemoragik melalui pendekatan studi kasus di RSUD Arifin Achmad, Riau, yang dilakukan selama delapan hari pada bulan Juni 2024. Pendekatan manajemen asuhan keperawatan ini melibatkan beberapa tahapan, yaitu perencanaan, pengorganisasian, pelaksanaan, dan evaluasi yang disusun berdasarkan prioritas masalah keperawatan. Intervensi yang diberikan mengikuti standar dari Buku Standar Diagnosa Keperawatan Indonesia (SDKI) dengan fokus utama pada tiga aspek. Pertama, gangguan mobilitas fisik ditangani dengan melakukan latihan Range of Motion (ROM) pasif untuk meningkatkan kekuatan otot dan fleksibilitas sendi. Kedua, gangguan komunikasi verbal dikelola dengan penggunaan isyarat tangan sebagai alternatif komunikasi dan mengajarkan pasien berbicara perlahan untuk memperbaiki interaksi. Ketiga, risiko jatuh dicegah melalui edukasi kepada pasien dan keluarga mengenai faktor risiko serta langkah-langkah pencegahan.Selama delapan hari asuhan keperawatan, hasil yang diperoleh menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan pada kondisi pasien. Tingkat kesadaran pasien mencapai skor Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) 15, menandakan kesadaran penuh. Pasien juga mampu melakukan ROM pasif secara mandiri dengan kekuatan otot yang meningkat hingga 4+/5. Penilaian risiko jatuh dengan Morse Fall Scale (MFS) menunjukkan risiko rendah setelah edukasi diberikan kepada pasien dan keluarga. Selain itu, pasien dan keluarga berhasil memanfaatkan isyarat tangan dan berbicara dengan perlahan, meningkatkan efektivitas komunikasi mereka. Pendekatan ini membuktikan bahwa intervensi yang terstruktur dan disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan pasien dapat mendukung pemulihan dan mencegah komplikasi lebih lanjut pada pasien stroke non hemoragik.

Improving estimation of a record-breaking east Asian dust storm emission with lagged aerosol Ångström exponent observations

Published: November 2024

Abstract. A record-breaking east Asian dust storm over recent years occurred in March 2021. The Ångström exponent (AE), which measures the wavelength dependence of aerosol optical thickness (AOT), is significantly sensitive to large aerosols such as dust. Due to the lack of observations during dust storms and the accuracy of the satellite-retrieved AE depending on the instrument and retrieval algorithm, it is possible to estimate the dust storm emission using the time-lagged ground-based AE observations. In this study, the hourly AEs observed by the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) are assimilated with the ensemble Kalman smoother (EnKS) and Weather Research and Forecasting model coupled with Chemistry (WRF-Chem) to optimize simulated dust emissions from 14 to 23 March 2021. The results demonstrate that the additional inclusion of AE can optimize the size distribution of dust emissions and the associated total flux depending on the covariance between time-lagged AE observations and simulated dust emissions in each size bin. Compared to the experiment only assimilating AOT, validation by independent observations from the Skynet Observation NETwork (SONET) shows that assimilating additional AE information reduces the root mean square error (RMSE) of simulated AOT and AE by approximately 17 % and 61 %, respectively. The temporal variation in both simulated AOT and AE is improved through assimilating additional AE information. The assimilation of AOT and AE also makes the magnitude and variations in aerosol vertical extinctions more comparable to the independent Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) observations in both westward and eastward pathways of dust transport. The optimized dust emissions in the Gobi Desert during this period is estimated to be 52.63 Tg and reached a peak value of 3837 kt h−1 at 07:00 UTC on 14 March.
