Published: April 2024

Abstract
High-thermal-conductivity polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) has both mechanical and heat dissipation properties, and its low weight and fuel efficiency make it a suitable replacement for metals in automobiles. However, this resin often causes filling defects in the injection molding process. This is due to the higher thermal conductivity, which causes the molten resin to solidify more quickly during the filling process. Therefore, it is important to predict the cooling and filling behaviors of the resin accurately using computer-aided engineering (CAE). Currently, many commercial software programs use thermal contact resistance (TCR) as the thermal boundary condition between the mold and resin. However, there is no established method to accurately evaluate TCR during filling with high spatial resolution and response, and the accuracy of CAE cannot be maintained. Therefore, we used thermography and a prismatic glass insert mold to thermally visualize and analyze the filling process of this resin. Consequently, we succeeded in evaluating TCR values with high spatial resolution and response. The obtained TCR values varied depending on the flow state and pressure. To further validate the obtained TCR values, we compared “the visualization results of real flow conditions” and “the flow prediction results of CAE considering the obtained TCR values”.
The Globalization of Guinness: Marketing Taste, Transferring Technology
Authors: Pilcher Jeffrey M. 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Brewed in 50 countries and consumed in 150, Guinness Stout has become a global commodity. Although associated with Irish pubs and diasporic populations, it has also become popular in former British colonies of Africa and Southeast Asia. This article adopts a mobility studies perspective to show how Guinness built its global appeal, first through trade and settlement in the British empire during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and subsequently by navigating the upheavals of decolonization and economic integration in the second half of the twentieth and early twenty first centuries. Transfers of brewing technology and marketing techniques were essential for the company’s success in postcolonial markets. In particular, this article shows that metropolitan exporters could work with colonial subjects to subvert imperial policies. Such alliances were not entirely unexpected, for with its headquarters in a former British colony, Guinness was ideally situated to blend the global and the local, just as the company had successfully bridged the bloody divide of Irish independence, remaining as beloved in Belfast, loyalist heartland of Northern Ireland, as in Dublin, capital of the Irish Republic.

Abstract

Objectives
Growth failure is one of the major complications of pediatric chronic kidney disease. Even after a kidney transplant (KT), up to 50 % of patients fail to achieve the expected final height. This study aimed to assess longitudinal growth after KT and identify factors influencing it.

Methods
A retrospective observational study was performed. We reviewed the clinical records of all patients who underwent KT for 25 years in a single center (n=149) and performed telephone interviews. Height-for-age and body mass index (BMI)-for-age were examined at KT, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and 5 years post-transplant and at the transition to adult care. We evaluated target height, disease duration before KT, need and type of dialysis, recombinant human growth hormone pretransplant use, nutritional support, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and cumulative corticosteroid dose.

Results
At transplant, the average height z-score was −1.38, and height z-scores showed catch-up growth at 6 months (z-score −1.26, p=0.006), 1 year (z-score −1.15, p<0.001), 5 years after KT (z-score −1.08, p<0.001), and on transition to adult care (z-score −1.22, p=0.012). Regarding BMI z-scores, a significant increase was also detected at all time points (p<0.001). After KT, GFR was significantly associated with height z-score (p=0.006) and BMI z-score (p=0.006). The height in transition to adult care was −1.28 SD compared to the target height.

Conclusions
Despite the encouraging results regarding catch-up growth after KT in this cohort, results remain far from optimum, with a lower-than-expected height at the time of transition.

Abstract
As a result of the prolonged struggle for national independence, the Mongolian people, who endured over two centuries of oppression under Manchurian rule, regained sovereignty in 1911 and established the Republic of Mongolia. During this period, significant economic, social, and political reforms were initiated, laying the groundwork for the national financial system. This article examines the social, political, and economic landscape during the Bogd Khanate of Mongolia. Research into the tax and financial policies implemented during this period was conducted using historical documents and sources. Within the framework of Mongolian governmental financial policies, five ministries were established, accompanied by the enactment and implementation of various regulations about finance, taxation, and customs. Efforts were made to enhance state revenue; however, the accumulation of debt owed to foreign moneylenders and merchants, coupled with the taxation burden on Mongolian citizens, including payments to domestic nobles and religious institutions, exacerbated poverty and economic hardship among the populace. In June 1915, the autonomy of Mongolia, as stipulated in the treaty between Russia, Mongolia, and China, was abolished in 1919, resulting in the reassertion of foreign control over Mongolian governance.
Jewish Wit – In the Original, and in Translation
Authors: Hessing Jakob 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
This essay, based on Prof. Hessing’s keynote lecture delivered at the opening of the Gronemann-conference in 2022, explores notions of “Jewish wit” in Sammy Gronemann’s German novel Tohuwabohu (translated as Utter Chaos). It focuses on the incongruities and comic potential of the tensions between German and Yiddish in the novel, questioning notions of “original” and “translation” as applied to the interrelationships between Eastern European and German Jewish cultures. By highlighting the linguistic and cultural shifts experienced by these Jewish communities, Gronemann’s novel serves as a focal point for dissecting the nuances of multilingual Jewish humor and the underlying tragedies of Jewish life, especially amidst historical upheavals like World War I and the Holocaust. The essay concludes with insights into Gronemann’s ironic perspective on Zionism and the thematic significance of “Tohuwabohu” as a metaphor for the modern Jewish experience.
Silicon-based planar devices for narrow-band near-infrared photodetection using Tamm plasmons

Abstract
Designing efficient narrow-band near-infrared photodetectors integrated on silicon for telecommunications remains a significant challenge in silicon photonics. This paper proposes a novel silicon-based hot-electron photodetector employing Tamm plasmons (Si-based TP-HE PD) for narrow-band near-infrared photodetection. The device combines a one-dimensional photonic crystal (1DPC) structure, an Au layer, and a silicon substrate with a back electrode. Simulation results show that the absorption of the TP device with a back electrode is 1.5 times higher than without a back electrode, due to increased absorption from multiple reflections between the back electrode and the 1DPC structure. Experimentally, the responsivity of the fabricated device reaches 0.195 mA/W at a wavelength of 1400 nm. A phenomenological model was developed to analyze the photoelectric conversion mechanism, revealing reasonable agreement between the theoretically calculated and experimentally measured internal quantum efficiencies. Additional experiments and simulations demonstrate the tunability of the resonance wavelength from 1200 nm to 1700 nm by adjusting structural parameters. The Si-based TP-HE PD shows potential for silicon-based optoelectronic applications, offering the advantages of a simple structure, low cost, and compatibility with silicon photonic integrated circuits. This work represents the first demonstration of a silicon-based hot electron NIR photodetector utilizing Tamm plasmons.

Published: April 2024

Abstract
Closed-form expressions for the dimensionless velocity, shear stresses, and the flow vorticity fields corresponding to the isothermal unsteady Poiseuille flows of a fractional incompressible viscous fluid over an infinite flat plate are established. The fluid motion induced by a pressure gradient in the flow direction is also influenced by the flat plate that oscillates in its plane. The vorticity field is dependent on two spatial coordinate and time, and it is an arbitrary trigonometric polynomial in the horizontal coordinate. The exact solutions, obtained by generalized separation of variables and Laplace transform technique, are presented in terms of the Wright function and complementary error function of Gauss. Their advantage consists in the fact that the values of the fractional parameter can be chosen so that the predicted material properties by them to be in agreement with the corresponding experimental results. In addition, they describe motions for which the nontrivial shear stresses are influenced by history of the shear rates. It is found that the flow vorticity is stronger near the plate, but it could be attenuated in the case of fractional model.

Abstract
The need to study the concept of “politeness” from the point of view of its linguistic and cultural nature is caused by the desire to study the national identity of speech etiquette in different cultural spaces and conditions. The aim of the work was to form an idea about the specifics of the implementation and understanding of the concept of “politeness” in the Uzbek information field. In this study, the following methods were used: contextual, conceptual, communicative, linguocultural, analytical-synthetic, and comparative. This study is focused on the study of key lexical meanings (stylistically neutral and marked, basic and additional) that are within the functional-semantic field of the concept “politeness.” With the help of contextual study of different variants of the use of the lexeme, the meanings were distributed in the conceptual structure (core, near and far periphery). Also, the key etiquette formulas representing the originality and national-specific features of the Uzbek linguocultural tradition were considered. The importance of politeness in the information space of Uzbekistan is assessed, including with the help of both positive and negative associations, that is, from an axiological point of view. Speech etiquette and linguistic formulas were considered from the point of view of the influence of social, cultural, and political values of the Uzbek people. In the process of analyzing the lexical layer, the boundaries of the functional-semantic field of the concept “politeness” were determined: from the principles of communication and a set of rules of etiquette to the strategy of obtaining benefits from communication and insincere attitude. In the future, this work can be used for comparative analysis of the conceptual structure of politeness with models presented in other close and distant languages, comparison of speech etiquette and linguistic formulas in different national cultures.

Published: April 2024

Introducción: La artrodesis tibioastragalina es una opción para tratar la artrosis de tobillo en pacientes que no responden a las medidas conservadoras. Su principal desventaja es el compromiso a mediano y largo plazo de las articulaciones vecinas.
Objetivo: Determinar el compromiso de las articulaciones vecinas a mediano y largo plazo, y su impacto sobre los resultados funcionales en los pacientes con artrodesis de tobillo.
Materiales y Métodos: Se evaluó a una serie de 11 pacientes (6 mujeres y 5 hombres). El diagnóstico inicial era artrosis postraumática (9 casos), artritis séptica (1 caso) y lesión osteocondral de astrágalo (1 caso). El promedio de edad al operarse era de 50 años. La media de seguimiento fue de 9 años. Se evaluó el compromiso radiográfico de las articulaciones vecinas. La función se valoró mediante la escala analógica visual para dolor, la escala de la AOFAS y un cuestionario simple de satisfacción.
Resultados: Diez pacientes (91%) tenían artrosis en alguna de las articulaciones vecinas. El puntaje medio en la escala analógica visual fue de 2,6 y el de la escala de la AOFAS, de 71. Nueve refirieron estar muy satisfechos; uno, medianamente satisfecho y otro se manifestó insatisfecho.
Conclusión: El compromiso de las articulaciones vecinas es muy frecuente a largo plazo, pero esto no repercute directamente en los resultados funcionales.

AbstractBackgroundAlthough internet gaming disorder (IGD) has been included in the DSM-5 for approximately 10 years, debate remains regarding its existence and classification.MethodsThe current research incorporated three approaches. First, implicit association tests were used to examine for potential dissociation between wanting and liking in IGD. Second, brain features in wanting and liking circuits were tested and compared with tobacco use disorder (TUD) when performing a cue-craving task to explore the neural features of wanting and liking. Third, dopaminergic systems were investigated in IGD and TUD using neuromelanin-sensitive MRI.ResultsThe implicit association test results supported a wanting-liking dissociation in IGD participants. Functional MRI data suggested neural correlates underlying wanting-liking dissociation in IGD and TUD participants, with positive correlations suggesting greater dissociation with increasing addiction severity. Neuromelanin results suggest dopaminergic differences in IGD and TUD relative to healthy control participants.ConclusionsA wanting-liking dissociation in IGD participants suggests gaming motivations in IGD relating to incentive sensitization rather than hedonic responses. The neuromelanin-sensitive MRI results suggest dopaminergic involvement in IGD and TUD. The findings suggest similar brain-behaviour mechanisms for IGD and TUD based on an incentive-sensitization model for addiction, having implications for potential therapeutic strategies and policy-based interventions.

Introduction. Head and neck cancer is the 7th most common malignancy worldwide; squamous cell carcinoma of the oral mucosa are almost a third of tumors of that localization. Metastatic lesions of the neck lymph nodes are an unfavorable prognostic factor for malignant tumors of that location since it is associated with a 50 % decrease in overall survival. In this regard, the detection of metastases to the neck lymph nodes is an important component of high-quality oncological care for patients with that pathology.Aim. To evaluate the efficiency of sentinel lymph node biopsy in squamous cell carcinoma of cavity of mouth mucosa cT1–2N0М0.Materials and methods. 72 patients were included in trial at the age from 21 to 74 (mean 57.3) with confirmed squamous cell carcinoma of cavity of mouth mucosa cT1–2N0М0. No evidence of regional metastasis, by preoperative examination, including ultrasound, computed tomography with intravenous contrast was observed. All patients received radioisotope research to determine localization of sentinel lymph nodes, and then biopsy of that nodes was performed. Before obtaining information about the status of the sentinel lymph node, radical neck dissection was not performed. Pathology report with immunohistochemical investigation was performed by pathologist of A. F. Tsyb Medical Radiological Research Center – branch of the National Medical Research Radiological Center, Ministry of Health of Russia.Results. When assessing efficiency of sentinel lymph node method, true positives results (detection of metastasis in sentinel lymph node) were achieved in 3 (4.17 %) out of 72 cases. Follow up time was from 1 to 69 months. Among those cases, where metastasis in sentinel lymph nodes were not detected, relapse in regional lymph nodes was developed in 3 (4.35 %) out of 69 cases. Radical neck dissection was performed in cases with metastasis in sentinel lymph nodes. The specificity of method was 95 %, the predictive value of a negative result was 0.04.Conclusion. Sentinel lymph neck node biopsy is an effective method of subclinical locoregional metastases detection in cancer of oral mucosa cT1–2N0M0. In our study of sentinel lymph neck node biopsy, oncological outcomes were comparable to radical neck dissection, with fewer postoperative complications.

Introduction. Malignant tumors of the nasal cavity and sinonasal tract are rare, less than 3 % of all of the head and neck malignant neoplasm. The leading treatment is combined methods with surgery as a first step. However, operation is limited in a locally advanced process due to requires the use of complex reconstructive techniques and removal of aesthetic and functionally important structures. In this regard, the interest of specialists is understandable in use of organ-preserving techniques with comparable oncological results. Intra-arterial chemotherapy has shown high effectiveness in various localizations of malignant neoplasms, so its use in locally advanced tumors of the nasal cavity and sinonasal tract seems promising.Aim. To evaluate the results of complex treatment of patients with locally advanced cancer of the nasal cavity and sinonasal tract using induction intra-arterial chemotherapy.Materials and methods. The study included 28 from 2017 to 2023 with locally advanced cancer of the nasal cavity and sinonasal tract underwent TPF induction intra-arterial chemotherapy, followed by radiation or chemoradiotherapy. The primary endpoint of the study was survival, secondary – objective response rate, treatment toxicity and the possibility of organ preservation.Results. The median follow-up was 19.1 months. We obtained results for all patients of 1-year overall survival – 85.7 % (T3 – 100 %, T4a – 92.7 %, T4b – 55.6 %), and 1-year progression-free survival – 66.7 % (T3 – 75 %, T4a – 71.4 %, T4b – 50 %), respectively. The response rate after intra-arterial chemotherapy was 85.2 %. Overall survival and progression-free survival did not differ significantly between patients with complete response, partial response, and stable disease. However, in patients with a complete response after chemoradiotherapy, 1-year overall survival was 100 % (p = 0.009) and progression-free survival – 90 % (p <0.001). The main side effect in patients in the study was the development of neutropenia (35.7 %), and occurrence of neurological complications was noted in 10.7 %. Of the 35.7 % of patients with tumor orbital invasion, survival with preserved visual function in the first year of life was 80 %; all patients retained vision; as a result of treatment, not a single patient underwent surgery with exenteration.Conclusion. Induction intra-arterial chemotherapy in treatment of patients with locally advanced cancer of the nasal cavity and sinonasal tract demonstrates high efficiency and a high level of complete responses with a fairly low level of toxicity, and also allows preserve the eye function for the majority of patients.
