Published: October 2024

Climate change affects everyone living on the earth. Global warming is increasing day by day that is changing the life patterns. Climate change is now regarded as one of the most dangerous environmental concerns due to its far-reaching implications. The purpose of this research is to look at one piece of the greater picture that is Asian progress by providing an analysis of climate change print media coverage in the press. The researcher reviewed the most circulated and prestigious newspaper of all South Asian countries from January 2021 to January 2022. The data is collected through Nexis Lexis software regarding the climate change news from selected newspapers in all South Asian. The content analysis is used as a research method for this study. The content analysis is a tool for defining and evaluating the content and message features of communications. Traditionally—and in several instances, is used for textual content processing (Doston, Jacobson, Kaid, & Carlton, 2012). the print media of South Asian countries covers only 76 stories in all selected newspapers. Most of the stories related to climate change published Times of India (India) 19 (25.00%) and Dawn News (Pakistan) 13 (17.10%). The data indicates that Dawn News (Pakistan) and The Himalayan Times emphasizes on Attribution of responsibility, Times of India (India), Khaama Press and The New Nation emphasize on Economic frame and Maidhu News, Keunsel emphasize on human interest. As a result, it is advised that the mainstream South Asian press emphasize specific issues, such as the causes of climate change. As a result, comprehensive and inclusive data is disseminated to raise public awareness and encourage action on climate change issues in South Asian countries. This study is finds the how print framing the climate change issue.

La chaotique du ventre : étude de l’anthropophagie dans l’oeuvre d’Emma Santos
Authors: Denis Elise 
Published: October 2024

Cet article propose une relecture de l’oeuvre d’Emma Santos (autrice française de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle) sous l’angle anthropophagique, en explorant plusieurs aspects de la dévoration : la dévoration infanticide, celle amoureuse et celle de l’entre-soi. En mobilisant dessins, textes et définitions anthropologique et psychanalytique du cannibalisme, je cherche à saisir le caractère protéiforme de la dévoration afin de mieux saisir la poïétique santosienne au coeur de son autodestruction, avant d’engager un tournant vers une définition plus littéraire et centrée sur la dévoration langagière. Dans ce travail, j’aborde donc la question de l’entremêlement de la chair et des mots en suggérant l’idée d’un cannibalisme littéraire emblématique chez Santos. L’approche retenue pour une telle réflexion se veut centrée sur la création, l’écriture, le langage et la corporéité.
Humour, comique et sublime pervers dans la fantasmatique cannibalique de Sade - Un essai de critique kleinienne
Authors: Mazières Frédéric 
Published: October 2024

Dans le cadre d’un essai de critique kleinienne, le présent article traite des représentations comiques des fantasmatiques vampirique et cannibalique chez Sade. C’est en prison, lieu d’une régression prégénitale que le marquis, après s’être adonné à des séances oniriques et masturbatoires, transcrit les variations les plus grotesques de sa fantasmatique orale. En contrepoint des occurrences sadiennes, nous avons commenté celles que nous avons rencontrées chez Mirbeau, Lautréamont, Poe ou Artaud et même chez Hans Bellmer, dont la créativité a été aussi singulièrement marquée par les outrances de fantasmes prégénitaux. Des scenarii sadiens, au-delà du grotesque, atteignent le sublime et/ou l’humour pervers. Pour clore cette étude, nous nous sommes intéressés aux manifestations du comique pervers dans des scènes de crimes cannibaliques puis à une forme extrême de cannibalisme : la nécrophagie.
« Students as Partners » : une approche pédagogique innovante pour un curriculum queer
Authors: Lebrec Caroline , Diwan Shreya , Mudadeniya Savindya 
Published: October 2024

L’objet de cet article est de présenter la démarche innovante d’une activité pédagogique – ou tâche en référence à la terminologie du Cadre Européen Commun de Référence pour les Langues (CECRL) – qui offre une alternative queer pour renouveler des contenus de cours plus traditionnels. Mise en place dans le cadre d’une initiative de niveau universitaire dans le domaine de l’apprentissage du français langue seconde au Canada, cette activité se concentre sur l’introduction en classe de niveau débutant (niveau A1 du CECRL) d’un élément grammatical et identitaire de genre : les pronoms non binaires. Comment intégrer en toute légitimité les pronoms non binaires quand on introduit les pronoms personnels sujet de la langue française ? Le public visé par cette tâche sont les apprenant·e·s de niveau débutant – ou de niveau A1 selon l’échelle de compétences du CECRL. Afin de présenter le contenu de cette tâche, nous proposons tout d’abord de discuter de l’importance d’inclure les pronoms non binaires (iel, iels) dans une langue genrée comme le français dans le renouvellement du curriculum dès le niveau débutant. Ceci permet de reconnaître toutes les identités de genre, au même titre que les pronoms auxquels les apprenant·e·s peuvent s’identifier (je, tu, elle, il, on, nous, vous singulier/pluriel, elles, ils) et d’offrir un climat de classe (classroom climate) où existe un sentiment d’appartenance plutôt qu’un sentiment d’exclusion. Nous proposons ainsi une alternative à la règle grammaticale politiquement biaisée du masculin l’emporte sur le féminin qui est traditionnellement enseignée pour expliquer les accords de genre en français. Pour cela, nous montrons dans un deuxième temps l’importance de la queerisation des matériaux pédagogiques afin que toutes les personnes trouvent leur agentivité dans leur cours de français et comment un travail de collaboration avec des étudiant·e·s permet de répondre efficacement à ces enjeux. Enfin, nous présentons l’aboutissement de notre projet qui a consisté à créer une ressource authentique intitulée Le voyage d’Alex, pour introduire le pronom non binaire « iel » dans un cours de niveau universitaire selon une pédagogie du conflit ou de l’inconfort, avant de conclure sur l’évaluation et la portée de notre projet.

Published: October 2024

Background
Myrtle (Myrtus communis L.), native to the Mediterranean region of Türkiye, is a valuable plant with applications in traditional medicine, pharmaceuticals, and culinary practices. Understanding how myrtle responds to water stress is essential for sustainable cultivation as climate change exacerbates drought conditions.

Methods
This study investigated the performance of selected myrtle genotypes under in vitro drought stress by employing tissue culture techniques, rooting trials, and acclimatization processes. Genotypes were tested under varying polyethylene glycol (PEG) concentrations (1%, 2%, 4%, and 6%). Machine learning (ML) algorithms, including Gaussian process (GP), support vector machine (SVM), Random Forest (RF), and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), were utilized to model and predict micropropagation and rooting efficiency.

Results
The research revealed a genotype-dependent response to drought stress. Black-fruited genotypes exhibited higher micropropagation rates compared to white-fruited ones under stress conditions. The application of ML models successfully predicted micropropagation and rooting efficiency, providing insights into genotype performance.

Conclusions
The findings suggest that selecting drought-tolerant genotypes is crucial for enhancing myrtle cultivation. The results underscore the importance of genotype selection and optimization of cultivation practices to address climate change impacts. Future research should explore the molecular mechanisms of stress responses to refine breeding strategies and improve resilience in myrtle and similar economically important crops.
Cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric properties of the Chinese version of the Intermittent Self-Catheterization Questionnaire (ISC-Q)
Authors: Hu Yingjie , Hao Fengming , Chen Ling , Wang Ying , Wang Laifu , Wu Dan , Ren Wei , Cai Wenzhi 
Published: October 2024

Background
The intermittent self-catheterization questionnaire (ISC-Q) is a valid and reliable tool to assess the quality of life (QOL) in patients with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) who engage in ISC. The aim of this research is to culturally adapt the ISC-Q and evaluate its psychometric properties within the Chinese patient population.

Methods
The cross-sectional research was meticulously conducted in two pivotal stages: initially, the focus was on cross-cultural adaptation, followed by an extensive phase of psychometric testing. This comprehensive analysis involved 405 Chinese patients with NLUTD who use ISC. Various analyses, including evaluations of the floor and ceiling effects, item analysis, content validity, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis (EFA and CFA), assessments of convergent, discriminant, and criterion validity. Additionally, Cronbach’s alpha was utilized to determine internal consistency, and test-retest reliability was measured using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC).

Results
No floor and ceiling effects were observed. The content validity index was 0.967. The EFA identified four factors, accounting for 64.953% of the total variance, and this four-factor structure was confirmed by the CFA. The fit indices in CFA were favorable, with χ2/df = 1.999, root mean square error of approximation = 0.070, comparative fit index = 0.916, Tucker–Lewis index = 0.900, goodness-of-fit index = 0.863, and incremental fit index = 0.917. The average variance extracted for the four factors ranged from 0.466 to 0.565, with composite reliability values ranging from 0.776 to 0.859. The ISC-Q showed a positive correlation with the intermittent self-catheterization acceptance questionnaire (r = 0.557, P < 0.001). The ICC overall Cronbach’s alpha coefficient for the questionnaire was 0.821, and the for test-retest reliability was 0.951 (95% CI [0.900–0.976] P < 0.001).

Conclusion
The validity and reliability of the Chinese version of the ISC-Q have been verified, making it suitable for measuring the QOL in NLUTD patients who practice ISC.

Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT

Objective
To examine chiropractic students’ attitudes regarding knowledge of pain neuroscience, chronic pain, and patient-centered care before and after educational interventions. Secondarily, this study aimed to compare measures of these skills between cohorts at different timepoints throughout training programs.

Methods
Using stratified randomization, 281 Year 3 chiropractic students at 2 institutions were allocated into 1 of 3 educational interventions and served as active-control comparison groups: pain neuroscience education, chronic pain education, or patient-centered care. Participants completed validated surveys regarding their experience with the education interventions immediately pre- and post-lecture and 12 weeks after completion. For further comparison, surveys were also completed by 160 Year 1 students and 118 Year 2 students at 1 of the institutions. Independent sample t tests and 1-way analysis of variance were used for data analysis.

Results
All Year 3 lecture groups showed immediate improvements (pain neuroscience education: 3.99 + 3.09/100, p = .18 [95% CI: 10.10 to −1.77]; chronic pain education: 0.42 + 0.74/7, p = .02 [95% CI: 0.72 to 0.07]; patient-centered care: 0.25 + 0.12/6, p = .05 [95% CI: 0.12–0.51]), but these were not sustained at the 12-week follow-up (pain neuroscience education: −6.25 + 4.36/100, p = .15 [95% CI: 14.93 to −2.42]; chronic pain education: 0.33 + 0.16/7, p = .19 [95% CI, 0.66 to 0.01]; patient-centered care: 0.13 + 0.13/6, p = .30 [95% CI: 0.41 to −0.13]). Compared to active controls, only the patient-centered care group showed an immediate statistically significant difference.

Conclusions
While this study found that immediate improvement in targeted competencies is possible with focused interventions, they were not sustained long term.
Mechanical weathering and rock erosion by climate‐dependent subcritical cracking
Authors: Eppes Martha‐Cary , Keanini Russell 
Published: May 2017

AbstractThis work constructs a fracture mechanics framework for conceptualizing mechanical rock breakdown and consequent regolith production and erosion on the surface of Earth and other terrestrial bodies. Here our analysis of fracture mechanics literature explicitly establishes for the first time that all mechanical weathering in most rock types likely progresses by climate‐dependent subcritical cracking under virtually all Earth surface and near‐surface environmental conditions. We substantiate and quantify this finding through development of physically based subcritical cracking and rock erosion models founded in well‐vetted fracture mechanics and mechanical weathering, theory, and observation. The models show that subcritical cracking can culminate in significant rock fracture and erosion under commonly experienced environmental stress magnitudes that are significantly lower than rock critical strength. Our calculations also indicate that climate strongly influences subcritical cracking—and thus rock weathering rates—irrespective of the source of the stress (e.g., freezing, thermal cycling, and unloading). The climate dependence of subcritical cracking rates is due to the chemophysical processes acting to break bonds at crack tips experiencing these low stresses. We find that for any stress or combination of stresses lower than a rock's critical strength, linear increases in humidity lead to exponential acceleration of subcritical cracking and associated rock erosion. Our modeling also shows that these rates are sensitive to numerous other environment, rock, and mineral properties that are currently not well characterized. We propose that confining pressure from overlying soil or rock may serve to suppress subcritical cracking in near‐surface environments. These results are applicable to all weathering processes.
One‐Electron Bonds in Frustrated Lewis Pair TPB Ligands: Boron Behaving as a Lewis Base
Authors: Kusevska Elena , Montero‐Campillo M. Merced , Mó Otilia , Yáñez Manuel 
Published: May 2017

AbstractOwing to its versatility in synthetic chemistry, TPB (tris[2‐diisopropylphospino)phenyl]borane) is a very important frustrated Lewis Pair. The unusual stability of the neutral radical (TPB)Cu has been related to the presence of a one‐electron B−Cu bond. Herein we show, through the use of different computational chemistry methods, that the existence and nature of this kind of A⋅⋅⋅M bond (A=donor atom, M=transition metal) depends on the surrounding chemical structure, and can be genuine one‐electron sigma bonds only if appropriate metal ligands (Y), able to trap the charge in the desired region, are chosen. This ability is modulated by the subtle balance between the electronegativity of the different atoms along the A⋅⋅⋅M⋅⋅⋅Y bond paths. Most importantly, contrary to many TPB complexes in which boron acts as a Lewis acid, in one‐electron‐bond‐containing structures boron behaves as a Lewis base.

AbstractThe polarized, cationic diphosphene [(ClImDipp)P=P(Dipp)]+ as the triflate salt 7[OTf](ClImDipp=4,5‐dichloro‐1,3‐bis(Dipp)‐imidazol‐2‐yl; Dipp=2,6‐diisopropylphenyl) reacts with azides of type RN3 (R=Dipp or Dmp; Dmp=2,5‐dimethylphenyl) in a [2+3] cycloaddition reaction followed by the release of N2 and a subsequent electrocyclic ring‐closing reaction to azadiphosphiridine salts [(ClImDipp)P‐P(Dipp)‐N(R)]10a,b[OTf] (R=Dipp or Dmp). The reaction of 7[X] (X=OTf, GaCl4) with the electron‐rich azides Me3SiN3 and NaN3 give the unusual diphosphenimine derivatives [(ClImDipp)P−P(Dipp)=N(SiMe3)]+ (11[OTf]) and [(ClImDipp)P−P(Dipp)=N(GaCl3)] (12), respectively, featuring an acyclic P2N moiety. Theoretical calculations provide insights into the reaction mechanisms to the cyclic and acyclic forms, in which the thermodynamic stability of the latter prevents the electrocyclic ring closure.
Enantioselective Synthesis of (E)‐δ‐Boryl‐Substituted anti‐Homoallylic Alcohols Using Palladium and a Chiral Phosphoric Acid
Authors: Miura Tomoya , Nakahashi Junki , Murakami Masahiro 
Published: May 2017

Abstract(E)‐δ‐Boryl‐substituted anti‐homoallylic alcohols are synthesized in a highly diastereo‐ and enantioselective manner from 1,1‐di(boryl)alk‐3‐enes and aldehydes. Mechanistically, the reaction consists of 1) palladium‐catalyzed double‐bond transposition of the 1,1‐di(boryl)alk‐3‐enes to 1,1‐di(boryl)alk‐2‐enes, 2) chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed allylation of aldehydes, and 3) palladium‐catalyzed geometrical isomerization from the Z to E isomer. As a result, the configurations of two chiral centers and one double bond are all controlled with high selectivity in a single reaction vessel.
N2‐to‐NH3 Conversion by a triphos–Iron Catalyst and Enhanced Turnover under Photolysis
Authors: Buscagan Trixia M. , Oyala Paul H. , Peters Jonas C. 
Published: May 2017

AbstractBridging iron hydrides are proposed to form at the active site of MoFe‐nitrogenase during catalytic dinitrogen reduction to ammonia and may be key in the binding and activation of N2 via reductive elimination of H2. This possibility inspires the investigation of well‐defined molecular iron hydrides as precursors for catalytic N2‐to‐NH3 conversion. Herein, we describe the synthesis and characterization of new P2P′PhFe(N2)(H)x systems that are active for catalytic N2‐to‐NH3 conversion. Most interestingly, we show that the yields of ammonia can be significantly increased if the catalysis is performed in the presence of mercury lamp irradiation. Evidence is provided to suggest that photo‐elimination of H2 is one means by which the enhanced activity may arise.
Cooperative Light‐Activated Iodine and Photoredox Catalysis for the Amination of C−H Bonds
Authors: Becker Peter , Duhamel Thomas , Stein Christopher J. , Reiher Markus , Muñiz Kilian 
Published: May 2017

AbstractAn unprecedented method that makes use of the cooperative interplay between molecular iodine and photoredox catalysis has been developed for dual light‐activated intramolecular benzylic C−H amination. Iodine serves as the catalyst for the formation of a new C−N bond by activating a remote C
−H bond (1,5‐HAT process) under visible‐light irradiation while the organic photoredox catalyst TPT effects the reoxidation of the molecular iodine catalyst. To explain the compatibility of the two involved photochemical steps, the key N−I bond activation was elucidated by computational methods. The new cooperative catalysis has important implications for the combination of non‐metallic main‐group catalysis with photocatalysis.

Published: May 2017

AbstractThe reaction of [Zr(TrenDMBS)(Cl)] [Zr1; TrenDMBS=N(CH2CH2NSiMe2But)3] with NaPH2 gave the terminal parent phosphanide complex [Zr(TrenDMBS)(PH2)] [Zr2; Zr−P=2.690(2) Å]. Treatment of Zr2 with one equivalent of KCH2C6H5 and two equivalents of benzo‐15‐crown‐5 ether (B15C5) afforded an unprecedented example (outside of matrix isolation) of a structurally authenticated transition‐metal terminal parent phosphinidene complex [Zr(TrenDMBS)(PH)][K(B15C5)2] [Zr3; Zr=P=2.472(2) Å]. DFT calculations reveal a polarized‐covalent Zr=P double bond, with a Mayer bond order of 1.48, and together with IR spectroscopic data also suggest an agostic‐type Zr⋅⋅⋅HP interaction [∡ZrPH=66.7°] which is unexpectedly similar to that found in cryogenic, spectroscopically observed phosphinidene species. Surprisingly, computational data suggest that the Zr=P linkage is similarly polarized, and thus as covalent, as essentially isostructural U=P and Th=P analogues.
CO2 separation performance by chitosan/tetraethylenepentamine/poly(ether sulfone) composite membrane
Authors: Prasad Babul , Mandal Bishnupada 
Published: May 2017

ABSTRACTCO2 separation from CO2/N2 (20:80) gas mixture has been demonstrated by tetraethylenepentamine blended with chitosan (CS‐TEPA) membrane. Optimization of CS and TEPA weight ratio were carried out based on characterization details involving thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, atomic force microscope, and field emission scanning electron microscope. Effects of water flow rate, pressure, and temperature were concurrently studied on CS‐TEPA membranes through gas permeation. Almost twofold increase in CO2 permeance (24.7 GPU) was detected in CS blend with 30% (w/w) of TEPA (CS70) as compared to pure CS membrane (12.5 GPU). CS70 yielded CO2/N2 selectivity of 80 whereas CS demonstrated a maximum of 54 at 90 °C. The membrane also exhibited improved stability at temperatures less than 120 °C which was evident from TGA isotherm trace. The proposed composite membrane can be a promising candidate for flue gas separation. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2017, 134, 45206.
