Sememe richness: a supplementary indicator of lexical richness in Chinese second-language writing
Authors: Zhao Ming 
Published: September 2024

AbstractThis article uses the vocabulary measurement indicators of lexical diversity, lexical sophistication, lexical density, and lexical accuracy for second-language writing levels to systematically measure the lexical richness of essays written by Chinese as a second language (CSL) learners. It employs the methodology of building a corpus based on the collected compositions for data analysis. It shows that the Uber index of lexical diversity and the lexical density of CSL learners does not always show a positive correlation with increased test scores. Lexical sophistication usually positively correlates with test scores, but the growth trend tends to be flat from the 81–90 score range. Lexical accuracy below 80 points is positively correlated with writing scores; however, the data above 91 points is slightly lower than that of 81–90 points. This article further hypothesizes that the above measurement indicators fail to accurately measure CSL students’ Chinese lexical ability because those indicators do not include the sememe factors of Chinese words and thus rely too much on word form. This article further puts forward the specific manifestations (polysemes, homographs, and multi-category words) of sememe richness and proposes specific solutions to add sememe richness to the four original formulas through the use of the four above-mentioned measurement indicators in CSL.

提要
语块在二语学习中具有关键作用, 通过学习和掌握常用的语块, 学习者可以避免过度依赖单词和短语的机械组合, 从而提高语言表达的流畅度。 然而, 当前的汉语二语习得研究主要着眼于母语和目的语语言系统之间的比较, 分析学习者在语音、字词和语法等方面的理解和产出偏误, 却未能深入研究多元文化互动因素对汉语二语语块的影响。 本研究分析了《非正式会谈》这一档电视节目中真实的多元文化互动, 其中包含来自12个国家的参与者使用汉语进行的自发性讨论。 基于社会认知语用学模型 (Socio-cognitive Approach to Pragmatics, 简称: SCA), 尤其是 Kecskes (Kecskes, Istvan. 2019. English as a lingua franca: The pragmatic perspective. Cambridge University Press, Kecskes, Istvan (ed.). 2022. The Cambridge handbook of intercultural pragmatics. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press) 提出的蓄意创造 (deliberate creativity) 和涌现共识 (emergent common ground) 等理论, 研究发现, 来自不同社会文化背景的会话参与者通过近似、省略、增字、颠倒和组合等方式构建创造性汉语二语语块, 这些语块具有可理解性、语义透明性和临场涌现性特征。 在多元文化互动情境下, 会话双方通常采取不同的会话交际策略 (如重复和修正), 以确保语块意义的成功理解和构建。 本研究还借助对话范畴模型 (Dialogic Categorization Model, 简称: DCM), 深入分析创造性汉语二语语块的认知机制。 研究发现, 非本族语者借助认知语用能力, 如概念范畴化和图示范畴化等, 在多元文化交互情境中成功地构建了创造性语块的含义。 过程中, 会话双方通过在线合作与协商及动态意义构建, 调整了原有的认知框架, 促使逐步推理和涌现共识的构建。

Abstract
A magnetic and efficient Fe78Si9B13/MnO2 composite was successfully fabricated by a facile hydrothermal method. This composite was employed as a Fenton-like catalyst for the degradation of methyl orange (MO) under activation of H2O2. The phase and morphology of the composite were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The experimental results reveal that the theoretical mass loading of Fe78Si9B13/MnO2 composite and H2O2 dosage have a significant effect on MO degradation. Fe78Si9B13/MnO2 composite effectively improved MO oxidation ability and could quickly decolorize the MO to 99.7 %. Decolorization efficiency increased with increasing H2O2 concentration from 0 % to 1.15 %. Additionally, a possible reaction mechanism of the coupling system was proposed.
Das Medium barbarisieren
Authors: Vernillo Daniele 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This article analyses the peculiar writing processes of Tomer Gardi in his novel Broken German as a broken mediality. Through the interaction of theoretical tools proper to Media Studies with perspectives of so-called Betroffenheitsliteratur and postcolonial theory, I claim that the novel can be seen as example of how the affection (Betroffenheit) of migrants facing discrimination due to their broken language can be not only picked out as a central theme of postmigrant narrations, but also performed through the medium itself. Here, through its own body, language actually becomes capable of performing what it is talking about. My reasoning starts from Dewey’s reflections on the role of medium in the aesthetic experience, from the concepts of Automedialität and Mikropolitik der Betroffenheit, as theorized by Jörg Dünne, Christian Moser and Andrea Seier, researching how individual and collective subjectivities are constituted through their cultural, linguistic and medial genealogies, in the wake of theorists like Foucault, Deleuze, Derrida, Butler and Spivak.I argue that Gardi’s case shows that the dynamic constitution of the writing subject always implicates a radical and violent transformation of the medium, in a process of mutual breaking and becoming-each-other.
Streetscapes and memories of real socialist anti-fascism in south-eastern Europe: between dystopianism and utopianism
Authors: Mirocha Piotr 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Historical revisionism towards the Yugoslavian experience of real socialism is gaining ground in Croatia and Slovenia, as exemplified, for example, by the 2017 renaming of Zagreb’s Marshal Tito Square and similar cases in Šibenik or Karlovac, as well as parallel developments in Ljubljana. However, the spaces that once represented the Yugoslavian workers’ movement and the anti-fascist struggle can be also subject to nostalgic practices termed Titostalgia. This study employs an analysis inspired by a discourse-historical approach to scrutinize the arguments used in naming controversies in nine Croatian and Slovenian localities from 2011 to 2022. The investigation of semiotic landscapes draws from extensive fieldwork, including photographic documentation consisting of 1,658 images. Dystopian interpretations of Yugoslavia’s past turn out to be propagated through top–down discourses, circulating in media outlets and endorsed by local authorities through infrastructural signage. These discourses are typically initiated by civil society actors aligned with right and far right politics. Besides mild media opposition, which mainly invokes anti-fascist values, smaller urban centres exhibit passive resistance or inertia towards the renaming, observable in grassroots signage. Conversely, capital cities emerge as hubs of intense expressive and predominantly progressive ideological semiotic practices within the renamed spaces.
Wozu communiter? Theoretische Überlegungen zum Gemeinsinn im modernen Olympischen Sport
Authors: Arenz Tobias , Jaitner David 
Published: September 2024

Zusammenfassung
Dieser Text nimmt die Erweiterung des Olympischen Mottos zu „citius, altius, fortius – communiter“ zum Anlass, nach der Bedeutung von Gemeinsinn (lat. sensus communis) im Olympischen Sport zu fragen. Unter Bezugnahme auf eine gesellschaftstheoretische Perspektive argumentieren wir, dass der Gemeinsinn die Fähigkeit des Olympischen Sports bezeichnet, sein normatives Grundprinzip – das Fair Play – zum Thema zu machen. Die Akte der Reflektion haben ihren Ausgangspunkt häufig in individuellen Klagen über unfaire Verhältnisse und fordern dazu auf, traditionelle Verständnisse von Fair Play zu überprüfen. Unter Bezugnahme auf die Athletes‘ Rights and Responsibilities Declaration aus dem Jahr 2018 zeigen wir, dass solche Reflektionen zum einen die inhaltliche Bestimmung von Fair Play im Sinne eines ‚sauberen‘ Sports betreffen. Zum anderen gibt es eine formale Seite, die den individuellen Anspruch auf eine faire Behandlung gegenüber der Verpflichtung, andere fair zu behandeln, priorisiert. Theoretische Überlegungen zum Gemeinsinn im Olympischen Sport haben diese beiden Dimensionen gleichermaßen zu berücksichtigen.

Abstract
Strikes can sometimes place a significant burden on affected third parties, particularly when they last for a long time, cannot be planned and affect many people or companies. This raises the question of the extent to which the effective conduct of strikes is necessary to enforce fair collective agreements or whether they could be avoided. The following discussion addresses this question from a game theoretic perspective.
ALGORITHM FOR FINDING OPTIMAL VALUES OF PARAMETERS OF SINGULAR POINT DETECTORS FROM LOCAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE IMAGE
Authors: ЛИХАЧЕВ А.В. 
Published: September 2024

Предложен метод, позволяющий определять оптимальные значения параметров детекторов особых точек p по локальным характеристикам изображения µ. Метод основан на процедуре поиска экстремума аналитической зависимости δ = P (p, µ), где δ - критерий эффективности детектора, определяемый как взвешенная сумма ошибок первого и второго рода. Зависимость P (p, µ) интерполирует набор δ(pi, µj), получаемый по выборке из множества однотипных изображений. Выполнен эксперимент с 40 рентгенограммами нижней части позвоночника человека, которые обрабатывались детекторами Харриса - Стефенса и SUSAN. Получено, что при выборе настраиваемых параметров детектора предложенным методом критерий δ оказался существенно ниже, чем для значений этих параметров на границах рекомендуемых интервалов.
A method is proposed that allows determining the optimal values of the parameters p of the detectors of singular points from the local characteristics of the image µ. The method is based on the procedure for finding the extremum of the analytical dependence δ = P(p, µ), where δ is the criterion of detector efficiency, defined as the weighted sum of errors of the first and second kind. The dependence P(p, µ) interpolates a set δ(pi, µj) obtained from a sample chosen from a set of similar images. An experiment is performed with 40 radiographs of the lower part of the human spine, which are processed by the Harris-Stephens and SUSAN detectors. It is found that, when choosing the configurable detector parameters by the proposed method, the criterion δ turns out to be significantly lower than that for the values of these parameters at the boundaries of the recommended intervals.
Predictive Model of Risk Behaviour in the University Student Community
Authors: Wylęgły Kamila 
Published: September 2024

Aim. The study aimed to attempt to explain the probable causality of undertaken risk behaviours in a group of university students, from the perspective of various predictors (which included low individual and social resources, as well as other risk behaviours). The choice of predictors was dictated, among other things, by the assumptions of risk behaviour theory and gateway theory.
Methods. The research was conducted among university students from many cities in Poland. Empirical data were collected using the survey method. The tool was a survey questionnaire, constructed from the author's scale and the Resilience Scale by Gail Wagnild in the Polish adaptation by Janusz Surzykiewicz and Karol Konaszewski (2019). The data were statistically analysed. The target procedure became path analysis.
Results. The study revealed several plausible predictive factors for specific risk behaviours of students. Analyses included behavioural categories such as the use of psychoactive substances and behaviour associated with them, risky sexual contact, low physical and psychosocial health care, dangerous behaviour in daily life, and disclosure of images and private data on the Internet. Each form of risky behaviour was situated in the model. The predictive factors in the path structure were identified as, among others, low social and cultural resources and low levels of resilience. It also appeared that some risk behaviours may be predictors for others.
Conclusion. The study reveals that not only syndromes of risk behaviours, but even entire risk pathways creating the possibility to infer probable causality, are noticeable in the group of university students.

Authors: Omar Helen Solange Soares 
Published: September 2024

A violência doméstica contra a mulher é um dos mais graves problemas que a sociedade enfrenta. É uma forma de violência que não conhece fronteiras, nem obedece princípios ou leis. Ocorre diariamente em Moçambique, apesar de existir um quadro constitucional e legal que introduziu vários mecanismos de protecção aos direitos da mulher. É neste contexto que surge o presente trabalho intitulado A violência doméstica praticada contra a mulher em tempos da COVID-19, na cidade de Maputo, o caso do bairro de Xipamanine, que visa compreender a violência doméstica praticada contra a mulher, bem como os seus impactos com o surgimento da pandemia COVID-19. O trabalho é importante na medida em que vai demonstrar que o caso de violência doméstica contra a mulher tem se agravado a cada ano que passa, tendo atingido níveis mais alarmantes com as medidas de combate a COVID-19. Vai dar também a conhecer a sociedade em geral, a mulher e aos infractores principalmente que a integridade física, moral, psicológica, patrimonial e sexual da mulher esta sendo protegida. O objectivo da realização desta pesquisa não só é para fornecer informações acima mencionadas, mas também incentivar as vítimas que denunciem, não fiquem caladas, não se intimidem, de forma que este mal seja combatido.

Published: September 2024

Background. Currently, the main method of treatment of locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses is surgical treatment with subsequent radiation/chemoradiation therapy. However, the survival rate of patients has not changed significantly in the last 20 years. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is highly sensitive to chemotherapy and radiation which allows to perform treatment even in cases of locally advanced squamous cell carcinomas of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. However, the question of prognostic factors of the effect of chemoradiation therapy remains open. Therefore, determination of these factors is an important problem. Aim. To evaluate the effectiveness of conservative treatment of locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal cavity and paranasalsinuses. Materials and methods. The retrospective analysis included 55 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses (stages III–IVA) who were under observation and receiving treatment at the N.N. Blokhin National Medical Research Center of Oncology between 2000 and 2020. In 50 (90.9 %) patients, treatment began with induction chemotherapy with subsequent radiation therapy per the radical program. In this patient group, treatment effectiveness was evaluated per the RECIST 1.1 (Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors) criteria. Results. Five-year overall and progression free survival rates were 49.5 and 22.5 %, respectively. Objective response rate after treatment was achieved in 65.5 % of cases: complete response was observed in 38.2 % of cases (n = 21); partial response in 27.3 % (n = 15); stable disease in 18.2 % of cases (n = 10); disease progression in 16.4 % (n = 9). Conclusion. According to the results of the study, conservative treatment is a promising approach in locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. Patients with complete response to treatment have the highest odds of cure and improved long-term outcomes.

Relationship of Fracture Morphological Characteristics with Posterolateral Corner Injuries in Hyperextension Varus Tibial Plateau Fractures
Authors: Wang Binghao , Ye Teng , Zhang Binbin , Wang Yukai , Zhu Yi , Luo Congfeng 
Published: September 2024

Background:
Hyperextension varus tibial plateau fracture (HVTPF) is known to present with concomitant injuries to the posterolateral corner (PLC). However, the exact rate and characteristics of these injuries remain unclear. The primary objective of this study was to explore the rate and characteristics of PLC injuries in HVTPFs. The secondary objective was to investigate the relationship between the fracture morphological features and the associated PLC injuries.

Methods:
Patients with HVTPFs were subdivided into 2 groups: group I (without fracture of the posterior column cortex) and group II (with fracture of the posterior column cortex). Fracture characteristics were summarized qualitatively based on fracture maps and quantitatively based on the counts of morphological parameters. Knee ligamentous and meniscal injuries were assessed using magnetic resonance imaging. The association between fracture characteristics and PLC injuries was analyzed.

Results:
We included a total of 50 patients with HVTPFs in our study: 28 in group I and 22 in group II. The rate of PLC injuries was 28.6% in group I and 27.3% in group II. In group I, patients with PLC injuries showed fracture lines closer to the anterior rim of the medial plateau and had smaller fracture areas. Furthermore, 6 of the 8 patients with PLC injuries in group I also had posterior cruciate ligament injuries.

Conclusions:
The rate of PLC injuries is relatively high in HVTPFs. In HVTPFs without fracture of the posterior column cortex, a small fracture area strongly suggests an accompanying PLC injury, and PLC injury is frequently combined with posterior cruciate ligament injury.

Outcomes of Total Knee Arthroplasty Following a Sham Incision Procedure in Patients with Previous Knee Incisions
Authors: Zink Thomas M. , Gonzalez Alexis G. , Coden Gloria , Smith Eric L. , Bono James V. 
Published: September 2024

Background:
Tenuous blood supply carries a risk of wound-healing problems and subsequent infection following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This risk may be increased by the presence of previous incisions. Performing a sham incision procedure allows for detection of wound-healing problems prior to performing TKA. The purpose of this retrospective case series is to describe the indications for and technique of a sham incision procedure in patients with previous knee incisions who underwent TKA following this procedure and to report the clinical outcomes observed in these patients following further surgery.

Methods:
Patients who had prior knee incisions, had undergone a sham incision prior to TKA, and had a minimum follow-up of 2 years were identified, and their cases were retrospectively reviewed. The identified cases typically adhered to the surgeon’s standard protocol, which consisted of making a midline incision adventitious to TKA, dissecting down to deep fascia, and closing the wound with suture. Incisions were then observed for at least 4 weeks to determine the viability of the skin flaps before TKA was performed via the same incision.

Results:
A total of 47 knees in 47 patients were included in the study cohort. TKA was performed at an average of 21.1 weeks (range, 4 to 163 weeks) following the sham incision. There were no cases of skin necrosis or periprosthetic joint infection at an average follow-up of 4.6 years (range, 2 to 12 years) after sham incision. A total of 11 patients (23.4%) required manipulation under anesthesia for stiffness.

Conclusions:
In our series, no patients developed skin necrosis or periprosthetic joint infection following TKA subsequent to a sham incision procedure, suggesting that healed sham incisions are safe to use for TKA and may be considered prior to TKA in cases in which local previous incisions increase the risk of wound-healing problems.

Published: September 2024

Abstract

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a multifactorial issue involving an intertwining relationship between animals, humans and the environment. The environment can harbour bacteria that are pathogenic to human health, including Escherichia coli, an indicator of environmental faecal contamination. Through culture dependent approaches this study identified 46 E. coli isolates in porcine and bovine manure, non-manured and manured soil, and the phyllosphere of manured grass. The grass isolation highlights grass as an environmental reservoir for E. coli. Whole genome sequencing identified 11 different multi-locus sequence types. We also identified a diverse plasmidome with 23 different plasmid replicon types. The E. coli isolates were phenotypically antibiotic resistance, predominantly multidrug resistant. Additionally, whole genome sequencing identified 31 antibiotic resistance genes, and mutations in the gyrA, parC, and parE genes, conferring fluoroquinolone resistance. The main virulence genes were associated actin mediated locomotion (icsP/sopA), siderophore production and alginate production (algA), which suggest adaptation to survive in the non-gut environment or the UV environment of grass surfaces. These results suggest that E. coli in soils and grasses may adapt to their new environments evolving novel strategies. This study demonstrates grass as an understudied environmental niche of AMR E. coli, which directly links the environment to the grass grazing animal and vice-versa via the circular economy of manure application.
