Serial Time and Finance Capital in Anthony Trollope and HBO's Succession
Authors: Hipsky Martin 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Global Anglophone culture of the twenty-first century has seen a popular resurgence of serialized fiction not witnessed since the English-language apogee of the Victorian serialized novel, as embodied in the monthly packets of chapters published by Charles Dickens, William Makepeace Thackeray, George Eliot, Anthony Trollope, and others. This time around, it is weekly televisual and streaming installments that debut the eagerly awaited episodes and seasons of our culture's most influential long-format narratives. Despite any residual disrespect for television/streaming as a cultural medium, this transposition of serial narratives from print to screen does not always entail a reduction or simplification of fictive narratives’ literary capacity for implicit socioeconomic critique, or for subtle and illuminative registers of the era's political unconscious. There is no Anglophone televisual series of the 2020s that better illustrates the potential of long-format streaming narrative to parallel the critical power of the best Victorian serial novels than showrunner Jesse Armstrong's Succession (HBO, 2018 – 23). The aim of this essay is to ground an interpretation of Succession in the thematic and formal homologies that it shares with the best nineteenth-century serial novels in general, and Trollope's The Way We Live Now (1873 – 74) in particular.
Tropes of Jewish Humor in Women-Led Digital Streaming Productions (2010 – 2019)
Authors: Miller Thaïs 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
The influx of digital streaming platforms from 2005 to 2008 enabled more nuanced representations of Jewish cultures, rituals, and subjects than on traditional distribution platforms. In front of and behind the camera, Jewish women, once marginalized, are now taking center stage and portraying the complexities of Jewish American life. Ilana Glazer and Abbi Jacobson (creators of Broad City) and Rachel Bloom (creator of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend) successfully navigated open-access digital streaming platforms to promote their comedic work, then modified their content to meet the needs of broadcast and cable networks and later subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) platforms. These content creators adapted traditional motifs of Jewish humor by infusing their work with contemporary, popular feminist sensibilities and applying narrative tactics specific to digital technology. This article examines the new common tropes produced by these Jewish American women creators of comedic digital streaming content as well as the historical, technological, and economic factors that gave rise to those tropes. Glazer, Jacobson, and Bloom inspired numerous subsequent content creators such as Jenji Kohan (creator of Orange Is the New Black), Joey Soloway (creator of Transparent), Amy Sherman-Palladino (creator of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel), Tiffany Haddish (creator of the comedy special Black Mitzvah), and Natasha Lyonne (cocreator of Russian Doll), who have also incorporated these tropes and been at the forefront of Jewish comedy, particularly in twenty-first-century digital streaming programs.
Oxaliplatin-induced immune thrombocytopenia in a patient with pancreatic cancer
Authors: Şentürk Mustafa , Altundağ Özden 
Published: September 2024

Oxaliplatin-induced immune thrombocytopenia is a rare but potentially serious complication of chemotherapy. We present the case of a 55-year-old man with stage 4 pancreatic carcinoma who developed immune thrombocytopenia during the 18th cycle of folinic acid, fluorouracil, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin (FOLFIRINOX) chemotherapy, immediately after oxaliplatin infusion. Despite treatment with methylprednisolone and platelet infusion, the patient’s platelet count remained low. Subsequent plasmapheresis and continued steroid therapy resulted in a gradual improvement in platelet count and resolution of symptoms. This case highlights the importance of considering immune thrombocytopenia in patients receiving oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy, and the potential role of plasmapheresis in refractory cases. Further research is needed to elucidate the optimal management of this rare complication.

Purpose
To represent 24–2 visual field (VF) losses of individual patients using a hybrid approach of archetypal analysis (AA) and fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering.

Methods
In this multicenter retrospective study, we classified characteristic patterns of 24–2 VF using AA and decomposed them with FCM clustering. We predicted the change in mean deviation (MD) through supervised machine learning from decomposition coefficient change. In addition, we compared the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) of the decomposition coefficient slopes to detect VF progression using three criteria: MD slope, Visual Field Index slope, and pointwise linear regression analysis.

Results
We identified 16 characteristic patterns (archetypes or ATs) of 24–2 VF from 132,938 VFs of 18,033 participants using AA. The hybrid approach using FCM revealed a lower mean squared error and greater correlation coefficient than the AA single approach for predicting MD change (all P ≤ 0.001). Three of 16 AUCs of the FCM decomposition coefficient slopes outperformed the AA decomposition coefficient slopes in detecting VF progression for all three criteria (AT5, superior altitudinal defect; AT10, double arcuate defect; AT13, total loss) (all P ≤ 0.028).

Conclusion
A hybrid approach combining AA and FCM to analyze 24–2 VF can visualize VF tests in characteristic patterns and enhance detection of VF progression with lossless decomposition.
The mediation effects of COVID-19-related traumatic stress symptoms and mentalization on the relationship between perceived stress and psychological well-being in healthcare workers transitioning to a post-pandemic world
Authors: Wang Qian , Zhou You , Wang Gang , Pan Xinyu , Sha Sha , Wang Zhe , Liu Yinqi , Tian Tengfei , Liang Sixiang 
Published: September 2024

Background
In context of COVID-19 as a collective trauma and the intense involvement of healthcare workers (HCWs) in the pandemic, perceived stress continues to have a tremendous impact on their psychological well-being. However, few studies have attempted to delineate the underlying mechanisms. This study examined whether COVID-19-related traumatic stress symptoms and mentalization act as mediators.

Methods
A sample of HCWs (N = 2610) from 22 hospitals in Beijing, China participated in this cross-sectional investigation. Data on their perceived stress, psychological well-being, the impact of event, and reflective function during the COVID-19 pandemic were collected using self-report questionnaires. Different mediating models were tested.

Results
COVID-19-related stress symptoms and mentalization independently mediate the association between perceived stress and psychological well-being. These two mediators also compose a serial mediation model. In particular, higher perceived stress inhibits the psychological well-being of HCWs through increased severity of traumatic stress symptoms, which in turn is associated with hypomentalizing.

Conclusion
These findings shed light on the mechanisms underlying the relationship between perceived stress and psychological well-being in HCWs. We strongly recommend incorporating a mentalization framework with trauma-informed practice in prevention and intervention work with this population during this and future healthcare crisis.
Perceived Social Support as Predictor of Acculturative Stress Among Indonesian Exchange Students in Europe

Published: September 2024

Participating in international student exchange programs offers valuable experiences during higher education. However, adjusting to numerous changes can lead to acculturative stress. Previous research has highlighted the importance of perceived social support in reducing acculturative stress. This study aimed to explore whether perceived social support could predict acculturative stress among Indonesian exchange students in Europe, using a quantitative approach. The ASSIS (Acculturative Stress Scale for International Students) and the ISSS (Index of Sojourner Social Support) were used as data collection tools. The sampling technique used in this research was a non-random sampling technique-accidental sampling technique. Participants were Indonesian exchange students in Europe (N = 119) with the age range of 21-24 (x̄ = 21). Results showed that 74.79% of the students had high levels of perceived social support, and 63.02% of them had low levels of acculturative stress. Linear regression analysis proved that perceived social support could significantly predict 8.86% of students’ acculturative stress. Additionally, no significant difference was found between gender in both acculturative stress (p= .356) and perceived social support (p=.280). Broadening social networks during the exchange program period would prevent students from experiencing high levels of acculturative stress.

Die Lebenslegende Milarepas als „Wimmelbild“
Authors: Bertschinger Dolores Zoé 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
In this article I present a systematic approach to the study of traditional Tibetan Buddhist murals painted in the second half of the 20th century. For more than 20 years there have been calls in Tibetan studies and Tibetan art history to research contemporary Tibetan Buddhist art. Although there have been a number of contributions on modern Tibetan art, where and how today traditional Tibetan Buddhist paintings are produced and received in monastic contexts is far less the subject of research. I therefore present the example of a mural in a Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Kathmandu painted in the 1990s. The focus of my study is on the iconographical representation of the Milarepa’s hagiography in this painting. Due to its specific location, this image can be interpreted from various perspectives that include the local Tibetan Buddhism of the Himalayan region, the Tibetan diaspora in Kathmandu, as well as the global Buddhism of the international tourists in Kathmandu. In connection with the image analysis, I present a systematic approach I have developed for the study of Tibetan Buddhist murals in situ in various Buddhist monasteries in Asian and European countries. Last but not least, this article is also a contribution to the diverse and ongoing reception of the Milarepa hagiography in Tibetan Buddhist contexts.
Living hated: Everyday experiences of hate speech across online and offline contexts
Authors: Kuřík Bob , Heřmanová Marie , Charvát Jan 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
The article builds on current research into the effects and harms of hate speech in the lives of its victims. It introduces the anthropological concept of everyday violence to focus on hate speech as an everyday experience as opposed to a sequence of separate hate speech acts. Methodologically, the study is based on a qualitative approach and analyses data collected via semi-structured interviews (N=33) with people who have experienced hate speech in four EU member states (Italy, Germany, the Czech Republic and Portugal). The analysis documents four overlapping themes of how hate speech manifests as the everyday experience of “living hated”—hate speech as a flow; its spatial dimension of moving across online and offline contexts; its long-term effects, leading to what we call “cumulative desensitization” (aggravated during the COVID-19 pandemic); and the role of support systems and their (in)effectiveness. The article concludes by suggesting possible applications as well as avenues for future research that could provide a deeper understanding of hate speech as the daily life experience of its targets.
Pragmatism, logic, and manuscript R318
Authors: Jappy Tony 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Whereas it is generally held that Peirce’s logic contributed largely to a proof of his pragmatism, particularly in the 1907 manuscript R318, the paper adopts an alternative approach and posits that after 1903, Peirce’s conception of the sign and the way it functions evolved significantly in the period leading to and including the various versions of this never-to-be-published article which set out his conception of pragmatism in 1907. The paper suggests that in attempting to explain his pragmatism in manuscript R318, Peirce was consciously departing from earlier conceptions of the sign and the way it relates to its two correlates. It suggests that this departure nevertheless contributed to the continuing evolution of his logic, and shows how R318 anticipates features of the systems described in the 23 December 1908 letter to Lady Welby and subsequent drafts while nevertheless being a completely different approach to signification. It finally suggests that there is a potential inconsistency in the definition of semiosis given in the manuscript and the theoretical distribution of the interpretant system described therein. The present paper is offered as one possible account of some stages in the evolution of Peirce’s logic.
The role of the normative sciences in the evolution of Peirce’s pragmatism
Authors: Liszka James Jakób 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
I argue that the introduction of the normative sciences in Peirce’s 1903 Harvard Lectures was prompted by ethical concerns related to his pragmatic maxim and his pragmatism, generally. In the new formulation of the maxim, Peirce shows the relation between theory and practice more clearly. At the same time, since theoretical beliefs can translate to practical ones, this shows how the practical application of theoretical science can be used for any purpose, good or ill. I show how Peirce uses an Aristotelian strategy to identify a highest end as a test of the moral character of practical maxims, namely, whether the means and ends derived from the maxim are conducive to that end.
Improvement of the thermal and mechanical behaviour of polystyrene (PS)-based nanocomposite films by modification of the composition and type of nanofiller
Authors: Khiati Zoulikha , Mrah Lahouari , Mezrai Abdelmoumin 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
In the present study, a simple yet efficient approach to the preparation of polystyrene nanocomposites based on a natural Algerian organophilic clay, called Maghnite, was addressed. The dispersion of the PS matrix polymer in the organophilic clay sheets was optimised. The resultant organic clays have been used for the preparation of PS nanocomposites by in situ polymerization. Both organic clays identified as Mag-CTA (0.5CEC) and Mag-CTA (2.5CEC) were used. The properties of the PS/Mag-CTA nanocomposites were studied using various physicochemical techniques (XRD, FTIR, TGA, TEM). Structural and thermal measurements were carried out on these materials. It was shown that the structural design of the surfactant influences both the morphological and thermal profile of the resulting nanocomposites. Optimization of the thermal behaviour was observed at a weight content of 5 % for both types of clay. The results of the gel permeation chromatography analysis of the nanocomposites showed that the presence of Maghnite-CTA reduced the average molecular weight as well as the average particle size of the PS. The best performance in terms of Young’s modulus, impact resistance and tensile strength was obtained from nanocomposites with 5 % organic content. The presence of organics causes the MFI of SP to decrease.

Abstract
Serious consequences including septicemia and amputations can result from complex wounds, which is a serious healthcare concern. In addition, there are currently only a few choices for management, which justifies the search for novel, highly effective wound-healing medications. This research work was aimed at fabricating chitosan-based Alkanna tinctoria and Mupirocin nanoparticles by ionic gelation technique for burn wound management. Preliminary studies were conducted, and the prepared nanoparticles were characterized by various techniques that involve, high-performance liquid chromatography for the detection of components in A. tinctoria root extract, ATR-FTIR, particle size, zeta potential, percent drug content (DC%), percent entrapment efficiency (EE%), scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) for surface morphology. The optimized formulation CS-AT-MU-NPs3 shows a particle size of 340.8 ± 34.46 nm and positive zeta potential 27.3 ± 3.10 mV. In vitro drug release study was also performed, which demonstrated improved and controlled release of the drug from the nanoparticles. The CS-AT-MU-NPs3 exhibited a maximum release up to 92.61% (AT) and 88.35% (MU). Antibacterial and antifungal activities of the formulation were also accessed by utilizing the agar well diffusion technique. The combination of AT and MU in chitosan-based nanoparticles was significantly effective against bacterial and fungal strains like Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Candida albicans as compared to other formulations. The skin irritation study was also conducted, which shows that the prepared formulation did not cause any observable changes to the skin in terms of inflammation, erythema, edema, or any other symptoms associated with skin irritation. All the chitosan-based nanoparticles showed almost 75% reduction in wound contraction, while the optimized formulation CS-AT-MU-NPs3 showed complete wound healing on the 15th day. Based on the results, it can be assumed that chitosan-based nanoparticles containing A. tinctoria and Mupirocin demonstrated good wound healing and could be used to effectively manage burn wounds of any description.
Determination of the modern marine single shaft gas turbine rotor blades fatigue strength parameters
Authors: Smetankina Natalia , Morhun Serhii 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
In this paper the problem of the gas turbine blades equivalent dynamic stresses and lifetime determination has been studied. The obtained numerical results have been experimentally verified. The equivalent stresses and the lifetime have been determined for the most dangerous forced vibration bending and torsion modes of all three impellers, forming the turbine rotor. The marine gas turbine engine should be as compact as possible. Thus its rotor consists only of three impellers, that causes rather high vibration and thermal loads on the rotor blades. The lowest number of cycles before the blades failure have been observed for blades of the first impeller, that are influenced by the strongest thermal and vibration loads. Obtained results show that for the surface temperature of nearly 1,000 °C the maximum equivalent stresses are approximately equal to the blade material endurance limit. All numerical results are in good correlation with the experimental data, the divergence is less than 7 %. Received results can be used for the next stage of studies, concerning the rotor creep and fatigue crack problems.

In brief
Bovine embryos lacking SMC2 (a core component of condensins I and II) are unable to survive maternal recognition of pregnancy. SMC2 KO embryos are able to form blastocysts, exhibiting a reduced cell proliferation ability, and arrest their development shortly after hatching.

Abstract
Condensins are large protein complexes required for chromosome assembly and segregation during mitosis and meiosis. Mouse or bovine embryos lacking SMC2 (a core component of condensins I and II) do not complete development to term, but it is unknown when they arrest their development. Herein, we have assessed the developmental ability of bovine embryos lacking SMC2 due to a naturally occurring mutation termed HH3 (Holstein Haplotype 3) or by CRISPR-mediated gene ablation. To determine if embryos homozygous for the HH3 allele survive to maternal recognition of pregnancy, embryonic day (E)14 embryos were flushed from superovulated carrier cows inseminated with a carrier bull. Mendelian inheritance of the HH3 allele was observed at E14 conceptuses but conceptuses homozygous for HH3 failed to achieve elongation and lacked an embryonic disc. To assess the consequence of the ablation of condensins I and II at earlier developmental stages, SMC2 KO bovine embryos were generated in vitro using CRISPR technology. SMC2 KO embryos were able to form blastocysts but exhibited reduced cell proliferation as evidenced by a significantly lower number of total, trophectoderm (CDX2+), and inner cell mass (SOX2+) cells at Day (D) 8 post-fertilization compared to their WT counterparts and were unable to survive to D12 in vitro. SMC2 ablation did not alter relative telomere length at D8, D12, or E14. In conclusion, condensins I and II are required for blastomere mitosis during early development, and embryos lacking those complexes arrest their development shortly after blastocyst hatching.
