Published: July 2024

The increasing impact of algorithmically driven processes on human societies, which can exacerbate political, economic, and cultural asymmetries, raises questions about reducing human agency by constraining platform structures. We draw on the theoretical concept of algorithmic imaginary, which captures users’ appropriations and ideas of these processes. In this paper, we focus on the dynamics between agency and structure in algorithmic imaginaries regarding the future of digital media platforms in Europe. The paper takes structuration theory as a theoretical starting point and employs methods of futures studies to analyze how the future is constructed in scenarios developed by a diversity of experts participating in a series of workshops. The future scenarios analysis is mapped around four actors, namely platform users, platform corporations, algorithms and institutions. By considering the role of various actors, particularly institutions, and their interdependencies this paper contributes to more balanced conceptualizations of algorithmic imaginaries, which tend to be centered around users’ perspectives.

Introducción. Los drones aportan imágenes de alta resolución espacial para el seguimiento de la dinámica de la vegetación en bosques bajo manejo forestal; sin embargo, existen dudas sobre la forma más eficaz de utilizarlas con respecto a la resolución espacial.
Objetivo. Determinar la resolución espacial más apropiada de las imágenes multiespectrales obtenidas por drones, para mapear los tipos de cobertura del suelo en bosques templados bajo manejo forestal de Hidalgo, México.
Materiales y métodos. Las imágenes espectrales se preprocesaron en resoluciones espaciales desde
0.2 hasta 2.5 m, a intervalos de 0.1 m. La cobertura de pinos, encinos, otras latifoliadas, herbáceas y suelo desnudo se clasificaron con el algoritmo Random Forest. El efecto de la resolución espacial en la clasificación de la cobertura terrestre se evaluó mediante la prueba no paramétrica de Kruskal-Wallis seguida de una comparación post-hoc Mann-Whitney-Wilcoxon (P < 0.05). Los errores de clasificación de las clases de cobertura se analizaron gráficamente.
Resultados. Las imágenes de 0.2 m de resolución espacial proporcionaron la mayor precisión de clasificación de la cobertura del suelo (96 %), pero fue estadísticamente similar que la de 0.7 m (P = 0.3984). La precisión más baja (82 %) se obtuvo con imágenes de 2.5 m de resolución espacial. Los errores de omisión y comisión fueron menores y constantes en las clasificaciones con imágenes de resolución espacial de 0.2 a 1.2 m.
Conclusión. Las imágenes multiespectrales (0.7 m de resolución), adquiridas con un dron de ala fija, permitieron la clasificación precisa de los tipos de cobertura y la distribución espacial exacta de pinos, encinos y otras especies de latifoliadas de un bosque templado bajo manejo forestal.
The Biography of a Writer as an Argument in (De)Canonisation
Authors: Satkauskytė Dalia 
Published: July 2024

Despite the conception of the author’s death that was prevalent in the second half of the 20th century, the author’s biography always intervenes indirectly in the canonisation process, either a priori, as an additional argument for canonisation (e.g. participation in the national movement), or a posteriori, when the canonised author acquires, according to Yuri Lotman, the right to a biography. Moreover, biography becomes a significant factor in cases of revising and rewriting the canon, especially when it is related to political changes in society, e.g. in forming a Socialist Realist canon or the case of its radical deconstruction. The focus on biographical texts and authors’ biographies increases significantly in the 21st century, when literature itself tries to erase boundaries between fictional and biographical, and literary scholars discuss whether it is possible to separate the author from his or her work in the contexts of the historical memory and cancel culture. In this theoretical and historical framework, I discuss the role of the biography in the canonisation and decanonisation of a writer, and consider how these processes and the shift in the cultural paradigm influence interpretations of writers’ biographies.
Quantifying hazard resilience by modeling infrastructure recovery as a resource-constrained project scheduling problem
Authors: Johnson Taylor Glen , Leandro Jorge , Ahadzie Divine Kwaku 
Published: July 2024

Abstract. Reliance on infrastructure by individuals, businesses, and institutions creates additional vulnerabilities to the disruptions posed by natural hazards. In order to assess the impacts of natural hazards on the performance of infrastructure, a framework for quantifying resilience is presented. This framework expands upon prior work in the literature to improve the comparability of the resilience metric by proposing a standardized assessment period. With recovery being a central component of assessing resilience, especially in cases of extreme hazards, we develop a recovery model based upon an application of the resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP). This recovery model offers the opportunity to assess flood resilience across different events and also, theoretically, between different study areas. The resilience framework and recovery model have been applied in a case study to assess the resilience of building infrastructure to flooding hazards in Alajo, a neighborhood in Accra, Ghana. For the three flood events investigated (5-, 50-, and 500-year return periods) and the chosen standardized assessment period (300 d), the “300 d resilience” successfully shows a meaningful decreasing trend (0.94, 0.82, and 0.69) with increasing hazard magnitude. This information is most valuable for identifying the vulnerabilities of building infrastructure, assessing the impacts resulting in reduced performance, coordinating responses to flooding events, and preparing for the subsequent recovery. This framework expands upon prior work in the literature to improve the comparability of the resilience metric by proposing a standardized assessment period, the “n-time resilience”.
Surface dynamics and history of the calving cycle of Astrolabe Glacier (Adélie Coast, Antarctica) derived from satellite imagery

Published: July 2024

Abstract. The recent calving of Astrolabe Glacier on the Adélie Coast (East Antarctica) in November 2021 presents an opportunity to better understand the processes leading to ice tongue fracturing. To document the fractures and rift evolution that led to the calving, we used the archive of Sentinel-2 optical images to measure the ice motion and strain rates from 2017 to 2021. The long-term evolution of the Astrolabe ice tongue is mapped using airborne and satellite imagery from 1947 to November 2021. These observations are then compared with measurements of sea-ice extent and concentration. We show that calving occurs almost systematically at the onset of or during the melting season. Additionally, we observe a significant change in the periodicity of sea ice surrounding Astrolabe Glacier in the last decade (2011–2021) compared to previous observations (1979–2011), which has resulted in a change in the Astrolabe calving cycle. Indeed, one can observe a decrease in the duration of sea-ice-free conditions during the austral summers after 2011 in the vicinity of the glacier, which seems to have favoured spatial extension of the ice tongue. However, the analysis of strain rate time series revealed that the calving of November 2021 (20 km2) occurred at the onset of sea-ice melting season but resulted from the glacier dislocation that took place suddenly in June 2021 in the middle of the winter. These observations indicate that while sea ice can protect and promote the spatial extension of a glacier ice tongue, its buttressing is not sufficient to inhibit rifting and ice fracturing.
Atlas of Petromodernity
Authors: Klose Alexander , Steininger Benjamin 
Published: July 2024

The Atlas of Petromodernity is many things in one: historical and geographical non-fiction, cultural theory essay, and picture book. In forty-four short essays, inspired by an equal amount of pictorial findings, Klose and Steininger develop a technical, geographical, political, and speculative panorama of the declining era of petroleum modernity.
The authors stroll through Baku, Rotterdam, and Louisiana, into Manchuria and through the Vienna Basin. They read Bertolt Brecht, technical manuals, and petroculture theory, and they listen to Neil Young. They go to the moon, through refineries and over highways emptied by the COVID-19 pandemic. They confront petrochemistry with petromelancholy, catalysis with catharsis, cosmos with cosmetics. The Atlas of Petromodernity tackles the contradictory ambivalences of a substance that has been vital for our epoch, and whose roles and meanings need to be understood in order to be able to leave this epoch behind.

Reflections on Doxiadis’ Theory of Planning for Human Settlements
Authors: Lai Lawrence Wai Chung 
Published: July 2024

This short paper reflects on why C.A. Doxiadis’ theory of planning for human settlements is a good theory that is human-centred, bottom-up, multi-disciplinary, as well as a practical tool backed by a clear model with unambiguous criteria or measures that can articulate with other tools for planning an open society in a complex world. Within the context of recent commentaries on his theory, practice and teaching, the reflections are based on eight research papers by Doxiadis from which the salient features of his theory are presented with evidence adduced in the form of quotes from his papers according to his viewpoints on history, value, and the science of and action for human settlements.
O laboratório didático (remoto) de ciências: “velhos” funda-mentos, novas reflexões

Published: July 2024

A utilização de atividades experimentais no ensino de Física tem sido destacada há tempos na literatura especializada e, apesar da reconhecida importância, é sabido da limitada ou nenhuma utilização dessas atividades em sala de aula. Esse comportamento recalcitrante tem sido atribuído a fatores como falta de formação específica dos docentes, falta de estrutura adequada nas escolas, turmas superlotadas, tempo escasso alocado para as aulas de ciências, problemas de gestão escolar, etc. Inúmeras alternativas a essas limitações foram surgindo na medida em que o avanço tecnológico ocorria e, com o advento mais recente das atividades experimentais didáticas de física controladas remotamente, com suas especificidades e contextos, e que ganharam novos contornos a partir dos desdobramentos da pandemia de COVID-19, percebeu-se a necessidade de revisitar alguns dos aspectos de uma discussão já estabelecida sobre os Laboratórios Didáticos de Física por Alves Filho (2000), e lançar o olhar sobre algumas das particularidades apresentadas pelos Laboratórios Remotos à luz de cinco pontos principais: 1) a necessidade que os estudantes possuem do concreto, de tentarem “enxergar” os fenômenos físicos e seus efeitos; 2) o desenvolvimento da capacidade de questionamento por parte dos estudantes; 3) o desenvolvimento de certas habilidades e competências generalizáveis; 4) a oportunidade de cotejar concepções alternativas que os estudantes possuem, e 5) o fato de que os estudantes gostam do trabalho prático e do ambiente descontraído do laboratório. Assim, este trabalho consiste em uma análise inicial para identificar evidências sobre os Laboratórios Remotos e a viabilidade de aproximações a construções teóricas já estabelecidas sobre essa temática.

O presente artigo tem como objetivo relatar as experiências exitosas desenvolvidas em encontros formativos, com todos os participantes integrantes do projeto do Programa de Educação para o Trabalho para a Saúde (PET-Saúde) Interprofissionalidade. No olhar ampliado, percebe-se que o binômio saúde e educação afeta o trabalho e a formação em saúde, respectivamente e, a educação permanente do preceptor interprofissional e o desenvolvimento docente interprofissional são de suma importância, pois eles são o elo entre a formação de novos profissionais, a educação permanente e a prática. Os encontros de Educação Permanente em Saúde foram realizados por meio de oficinas integrativas intituladas ‘Diálogos sobre Interprofissionalidade’, além de refletir sobre seus significados e aprendizagens à luz da literatura científica. O relato evidencia a importância das discussões dos fundamentos da Educação Interprofissional em Saúde (EIP) na formação. As vivências possibilitaram o fortalecimento da interação entre os atores com a construção de vínculos afetivos e de aprendizagem, a consolidação do conhecimento sobre a EIP e a prática colaborativa, o estímulo à participação ativa e interativa dos saberes e vivências e a experimentação de teoria de aprendizagem que dialoga com a EIP. Além disso, o formato de aprendizagem da Oficina Integrativa foi incorporado pela coordenadora do Núcleo de Educação Permanente em Saúde de São Vicente, também preceptora do PET-Saúde, nos encontros de educação permanente desenvolvidos na Secretaria de Saúde junto aos servidores. Assim, a partir do relatado e discutido reitera-se que programas como o PET-Saúde continuam tendo potencial para induzir mudanças na formação e no fortalecimento da integração ensino-serviço-comunidade. Espera-se com isto contribuir para a inovação em educação em saúde e na formação de novos profissionais.

The question of seasonal markets in Bronze Age Attab, Sudan
The multidisciplinary ERC Consolidator Grant project DiverseNile explores a crucial part of northern Sudan as a case study to reconstruct Bronze Age biographies (c. 1750–1200 BCE) beyond the present cultural categories ‘Egyptian’ and ‘Nubian’. The main hypothesis that is addressed by interdisciplinary methods is that degrees of cultural diversity become archaeologically more visible in the peripheral zones of urban sites.

After 20 Years of Treatment with Aprepitant for Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting, Should the Therapeutic Indications for Aprepitant be Expanded?
Authors: Mehboob Riffat , Munoz Miguel 
Published: July 2024

The drug aprepitant, a selective antagonist of the neurokinin-1 receptor (NK-1R), was approved in 2004 by the FDA for the treatment of CINV, blocking the activation of the receptor by substance P (SP). Oral aprepitant (day 1:125 mg; days 2-3: 80 mg) (low doses) was coadministered with dexamethasone and a serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonist. The aprepitant triple regimen is effective for the prevention of CINV in patients being treated with moderately or highly emetogenic chemotherapy [1]. Furthermore, activation of the SP/NK-1R system has been reported to mediate also pruritus and cough. A study published on 17 patients with skin T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) with refractory pruritus was treated with aprepitant administered according to the standard of 125–80–80 mg either in a weekly or a biweekly repetition regimen. They show that aprepitant was safe, well tolerated and effective for the treatment of severe chronic pruritus in patients with CTCL [2]. In addition, two randomized clinical trials have clearly demonstrated that aprepitant (day 1:125 mg; 2-7/2-3: 80 mg) suppresses treatment-refractory cough in patients with lung cancer [3,4]. Regarding safety, NK-1R antagonist aprepitant was safe and well tolerated. In a placebo-controlled trial in patients with moderate-to-severe major depression, a dose of 300 mg/day (moderate doses) of aprepitant was well tolerated and no statistically significant difference in the frequency of adverse events was observed as compared with placebo. Additionally, aprepitant was as antidepressant as paroxetine [5]. Furthermore, in the las 20 years has been reported many papers about the involvement of SP/NK-1R in cancer progression and the use of NK-1R antagonist aprepitant counteract all the pathophysiological functions of SP related to cancer. In fact, aprepitant is a broad-spectrum antitumor drug. Obviously, the concentrations or doses of aprepitant to have antitumor activity are higher (20-40 mg/kg/day) (high doses) [6].
In conclusion, based on the safety (low and moderate doses) and efficacy of aprepitant, its use in refractory pruritus with CTCL and treatment-refractory cough in patients with lung cancer should be approved. Regarding cancer treatment (high doses) we suggest the initiation of a Phase I clinical trial to see what safe doses are and Phase II clinical trials to evaluate the efficacy of aprepitant alone or in combination therapy with chemotherapy or radiotherapy at least in tumors with the poor prognosis.

H. pylori infection is common infection in developing countries and is associated with gastric and extra-gastric complications was not studied before in Occupied Palestinian territories. We wanted to measure the prevalence of H. pylori infection in a sample from Nablus region in West Bank and to study risk factors and clinical outcomes. We found that 122 patients who visited medical laboratories in Nablus were recruited to participate in the study. A questionnaire was collected from the study group on information that included; demographic variables, diseases history, blood groups. A sample of stool was collected and evaluated for H. pylori infection using H. pylori Antigen Test. SPSS software was used to perform statistical analysis of the study. 41.8% of the study participants had H. pylori infection. Patients without Diabetes mellitus type were less likely to have H. pylori infection (OR= 0.15(95% CI, 0.04, 0.60, p=0.008). Also, not having GI was associated with less H. pylori infection OR= 0.40, 95% CI, 0.39, 1.75, p=0.018). H. pylori infection was more common in patients with O blood group, but this did not reach statistical significance. Smoking and hygiene practices were not related to H. pylori infection. In conclusion, H. pylori infection is prevalent in Nablus and is associated with higher risk for Diabetes and GI problems.
