Результаты анализа актуальны для обучения художественному переводу и помогут исправить ошибки данного типа в процессе подготовки молодых переводчиков.
О культурной памяти в переводе (теоретический аспект)
Authors: Baleja Piotr 
Published: January 2024

Статья посвящена категории культурной памяти в переводе, которая в существенной степени влияет на переводческие решения. Автором подчеркивается, что теоретические положения зарубежных ученых, особенно Яна Ассмана и Мориса Хальбвакса, играют важную роль в осмыслении сложностей, с которыми приходится столкнуться переводчику. В статье отмечаются идентификационная и компенсаторная функции культурной памяти, ибо они ярчайшим образом проявляются в национальных мифах и других важных нарративах культуры оригинала и перевода.
Учитывая достижения в области переводоведения, автор расценил как необходимое вписать понятие культурной памяти в уже существующие положения выдающихся теоретиков данной научной дисциплины. Существенными для настоящего исследования оказались работы Кшиштофа Хейвовского, Романа Левицкого, Анны Беднарчик, Фрица Пепке и других. Автором отмечается, что в культуре перевода добиться ассоциаций схожих, с возникающими в культуре подлинника, учитывая специфику культурной памяти народов-реципиентов, может оказаться задачей весьма сложной или порой невозможной.
В статье сформулирован вывод о необходимости формировать переводческую компетентность в области культурной памяти. Автором проводится также классификация возможных проблем, мотивированных культурной памятью. Выделяются объективные, то есть сугубо онтологические, сложности и субъективные, определяющиеся человеческим фактором.
Odpowiedzialność jako odpowiedź na wartości
Authors: Kmieć Paweł 
Published: January 2024

Celem niniejszego artykułu jest ukazanie pojęcia „odpowiedzialność” w jego interdyscyplinarnym znaczeniu, a również w ujęciu filozoficznym oraz językowym. Drugim istotnym celem pracy jest podkreślenie istoty odpowiedzialności w życiu ludzkim i uwidocznienie, że jest ona kluczowym elementem do wypełniania wartości oraz odnalezienia sensu własnego istnienia. W pracy również została zawarta historyczna transformacja znaczeniowa pojęcia od starożytności do czasów współczesnych.
Do napisania artykułu autorowi posłużyła analiza artykułów naukowych o charakterze filozoficznym i językowym, słowniki pojęciowe, encykliki papieskie oraz książka autorstwa Victora Frankla – Człowiek w poszukiwaniu sensu. Autor posłużył się też etymologią słowa pochodzącą z prawa rzymskiego, co stanowi punkt wyjściowy do dalszych rozważań i transformacji znaczenia słowa na przestrzeni epok. W starożytności przede wszystkim odnosiło się do sfery sądowniczo-prawnej, w chrześcijaństwie rolę zaczęła odgrywać wolna wola i sprawowanie woli boskiej, w oświeceniu nastąpiło rozgraniczenie między porządek, a wolę, co stanowi fundament rozważań dwudziestowiecznych filozofów przede wszystkim w sferze moralności i etyki. Swoje wnioski autor konfrontuje z dziełem autorstwa Victora Frankla przedstawiającego istotę odpowiedzialności w warunkach obozu koncentracyjnego.
Artykuł uwidacznia trudność w jednoznacznym zdefiniowaniu pojęcia „odpowiedzialność”, co może posłużyć do dalszych badań językoznawczych, literackich dotyczących tego pojęcia.
Application of hydrological indices and GIS for the detection of areas at risk of erosion – a case study of the Oued Rhumel watershed, East Algeria
Authors: Miloud Koussa , Berhail Sabri 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
In Algeria, the loss of water capacity in reservoirs is a major challenge in the face of a significant increase in water demand. This loss of resources is due to the sedimentation of reservoirs, one of the most serious consequences of erosion. The use of hydrological indices is widely recognized as a highly effective method of providing input data for the cartographic representation of erosion-prone areas within geographic information systems. In the present study, the hydrological indices essential for erosion modeling were obtained through meticulous processing and analysis of a digital elevation model. The various indices, including the sediment transport index, composite topographic index and stream power index, were combined with other relevant variables such as slope, curvature, channel spacing and channel density.
The results of the survey showed that a significant part of the Oued Rhumel catchment, located in the eastern region of Algeria, i.e. 24.35% or 1,292.72 km2, is located in an extremely high or high erosion zone, which requires the immediate implementation of conservation measures. In addition, a total of 190.81 km2 or 2,024.47 km2 is located in areas with a moderate or low risk of erosion respectively. It is therefore evident that the use of primary and secondary derivatives of the digital elevation model, as well as morphometric parameters, through the application of a spatial analysis tool, is an effective and comprehensive method for identifying erosion-sensitive zones. This approach can be used on a regional or continental scale to facilitate watershed management and monitoring.
Pervasive RNA Binding Protein Enrichment on TAD Boundaries Regulates TAD Organization

Published: January 2024

Abstract
Mammalian genome is hierarchically organized by CTCF and cohesin through loop extrusion mechanism to facilitate the organization of topologically associating domains (TADs). Mounting evidence suggests additional factors/mechanisms exist to orchestrate TAD formation and maintenance. In this study, we investigate the potential role of RNA binding proteins (RBPs) in TAD organization. By integrated analyses of global RBP binding and 3D genome mapping profiles from both K562 and HepG2 cells, our study unveils the prevalent enrichment of RBPs on TAD boundaries and define boundary associated RBPs (baRBPs). We also characterize chromatin features of baRBP binding and uncover clustering among baRBPs and with transcription factors (TFs). Moreover, we found that baRBP binding is correlated with enhanced TAD insulation strength and in a CTCF independent manner. Further analyses revealed that baRBP binding is associated with nascent promoter transcription thus RBP/transcription may synergistically demarcate TADs. Additional experimental testing was performed using RBFox2 as a paradigm. Knockdown of RBFox2 in K562 cells causes remarkable TAD reorganization and boundary loss. Moreover, we found RBFox2 enrichment on TAD boundaries is a conserved phenomenon in C2C12 myoblast (MB) cells. RBFox2 is down-regulated and its bound boundaries are remodeled during MB differentiation into myotubes (MTs). Knockout of Rbfox2 in MBs also causes significant boundary reorganization. Finally, transcriptional inhibition in C2C12 cells indeed decreases RBFox2 binding and disrupts TAD boundary insulation. Altogether, our findings demonstrate that RBPs can play active role in modulating TAD organization through co-transcriptional association and synergistic action with nascent promoter transcripts.

Abstract
Background: There is a large number of decompensated liver cirrhosis patients in China, caused by infection of hepatitis B virus(HBV) mainly. These patient suffered a process of irreversible liver cirrhosis. Umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) has the potential of self-renewal and multidirectional differentiation, which makes it possible for curing decompensated liver cirrhosis.
Methods: 24 participants was recruited and divided into 3 groups. hUC-MSCs would be infused via peripheral vein 3 times. A 24 weeks follow up visit would be proceeded, including detecting liver function, coagulation function, general condition, immune system etc. Adverse event also would be recorded. A 1.5 year visit of survival would be proceeded subsequently.
Results: After infusion, liver function was improved in a short time. ALB increased in 57th and 85th day, but descended to baseline level in 169th day. PTTA was significantly improved since 29th day till 157th day. IL-8 was decreased during the whole visit. AE of class 1 and 2 were over 70%, while SAE occurred only 3 times. The 6-month survival rate is 75%, 75%, 100% in low, medium, high dose group. The interaction between dosage and efficacy is weak.
Conclusion: hUC-MSCs has great potential for treating patients of decompensated liver cirrhosis associated with HBV, with satisfied safety. The large sample size and RCT trial is required to prove its therapeutic effect.
Trial registration: This trial was registered in clinicaltrials.gov and the registration ID is NCT05442437. The name of registry is “Clinical Study of hUC-MSCs Treating Decompensated Liver Cirrhosis With HBV”. The registry published in 1st of July,2022.
Outcome disparities between rural and urban single ventricle infants
Authors: Buysse Janelle , Pierick Trudy A. , Zimmerman M Bridget , Reinking Benjamin 
Published: January 2024

Abstract

Background: Somatic growth delays are common in infants with single ventricle heart disease. Health care is largely centralized to higher volume centers located predominantly in urban environments. No studies to date have assessed how home location in an urban or rural environment impacts outcomes in single ventricle infants.
Methods: Data was reviewed from 67 centers using the National Pediatric Cardiology – Quality Improvement Collaborative (NPC-QIC) database. Urban or rural home location was determined using the home zip code’s rural urban commuting area (RUCA) code. One year weight and height z-scores and one year transplant-free survival were compared between urban and rural groups. Analysis was performed both unadjusted and with adjustments for co-variates. Sub-group analysis was performed for race/ethnicity, sex, and insurance type. Multiple imputation was performed to account for missing data.
Results: Data from 1403 urban and 351 rural patients was analyzed. Urban infants had higher weight and height z-scores (-0.95 and -1.65, respectively) at one year of age when compared to rural infants (-1.16 and -2.01, respectively, p <0.01). When adjustments were made for covariates, there was no significant difference (p ≥0.06). Rural infants were more likely to survive, transplant-free, to their first birthday (odds ratio 0.72, p <0.02).
Conclusion: Rural single ventricle infants are more likely to survive, transplant-free, to their first birthday but their growth lags behind urban peers. However, this difference in growth is attributable to demographic and disease severity factors.

Abstract

ObjectiveThis study was a prospective, single-center, non-randomized controlled trial to investigate the effects of perioperative and out-of-hospital nutritional interventions on nutritional status in patients assessed by nutritional risk screening.MethodsFrom July 2021 to June 2022, a total of 362 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled in the Department of Gastrointestinal surgery of the first Hospital of Shanxi Medical University. According to the results of nutritional risk screening and assessment, the patients were divided into two groups: five-step treatment for malnutrition and postoperative routine nutrition support group (FST + PRNS group, n = 248) and postoperative routine nutrition support group (PRNS group, n = 114). The main outcome measures included nutritional risk screening 2002 (NRS2002) and patient-generated subjective nutrition assessment (PG-SGA). Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to deal with confounding factors (age, gender, stage, etc.).ResultsA total of 302 patients completed the intervention and follow-up. According to the analysis of the study scheme, the NRS2002 score and PG-SGA score of the FST + PRNS group at baseline were significantly higher than those of the PRNS group. At 1 year after admission, the NRS2002 score and PG-SGA score of the FST + PRNS group were close to those of the PRNS group, and the difference was not statistically significant.ConclusionThe nutritional status of malnourished patients with gastrointestinal tumors who received one-year five-step treatment for malnutrition and postoperative routine nutrition support was significantly improved, and was close to that of patients with normal nutritional status with gastrointestinal tumors who received postoperative routine nutrition support.
Uncovering Structural Plasticity of Enterovirus A through Deep Insertional and Deletional Scanning
Authors: Dolan Patrick , Bakhache William , Orr Walker , McCormick Lauren 
Published: January 2024

Abstract

Insertions and deletions (InDels) are essential sources of novelty in protein evolution. In RNA viruses, InDels cause dramatic phenotypic changes contributing to the emergence of viruses with altered immune profiles and host engagement. This work aimed to expand our current understanding of viral evolution and explore the mutational tolerance of RNA viruses to InDels, focusing on Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) as a prototype for Enterovirus A species (EV-A). Using newly described deep InDel scanning approaches, we engineered approximately 45,000 insertions and 6,000 deletions at every site across the viral proteome, quantifying their effects on viral fitness. As a general trend, most InDels were lethal to the virus. However, our screen reproducibly identified a set of InDel-tolerant regions, demonstrating our ability to comprehensively map tolerance to these mutations. Tolerant sites highlighted structurally flexible and mutationally plastic regions of viral proteins that avoid core structural and functional elements. Phylogenetic analysis on EV-A species infecting diverse mammalian hosts revealed that the experimentally-identified hotspots overlapped with sites of InDels across the EV-A species, suggesting structural plasticity at these sites is an important function for InDels in EV speciation. Our work reveals the fitness effects of InDels across EV-A71, identifying regions of evolutionary capacity that require further monitoring, which could guide the development of Enterovirus vaccines.

Abstract
Optimization of crop water productivity is critical in water-scarce areas. The aim of this study was to evalute effects of deficit irrigation (DI) and wheat straw mulch on yield and water productivity of onion in Koga irrigation scheme, North Western Ethiopia. The factorial Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications, were performed. Three levels of DI (Full irrigation, 25% DI, and 50% DI) at all crop growth stages except for the mid-stage and two mulch levels (wheat straw mulch and without mulch), were applied as treatments. The effects of treatments on onion yield and water productivity were statistically evaluated, and the applicability of AquaCrop model was tested. The main and interaction effects of DI and mulch were significantly affecte yield, yield components and the water productivity of onion. The highest bulb yield (32.1 ton/ha) was obtained from full irrigation with wheat straw mulch. The lowest bulb yield (26.4 ton/ha) was obtained from 50% DI without mulch. The highest (7.07 kg/m3) and the lowest (5.9 kg/m3) water productivity were recorded at 50% DI with wheat straw mulch and full irrigation without mulch, respectively. The AquaCrop model accurately simulated canopy cover, biomass, and yield for the given climate. Average value of R2 0.98, NRMSE 11.5%, and d 0.98 were obtained for canopy cover. Biomass was simulated with values of R2 of 0.98, NRMSE 2.46%, and d 0.95; yield was simulated with values of R2 0.98, NRMSE 3.96%, and d 0.95. Therefore, adopting 50% DI at all stages except mid-stage in combination with wheat straw mulch is the best alternative for higher water productivity and yield of onion, in the area where water is scarce.

Published: January 2024

Abstract
The aim of the present work is to investigate the tribological behaviour in dry conditions of a 100Cr6 steel, whose surface was textured using microindentation techniques. Specifically, dimples were created on the surface of a sphere using an automatic Microhardness tester equipped with a Vickers indenter, setting a load of 0.5N. Friction tests were performed at different speeds considering surfaces with two different Void Ratios (VRs). Both textured and untextured spherical surfaces were tested using a ball-on-disc tribometer. In addition, the effect of dimple size was evaluated by producing Vickers indented surfaces at a load of 5N per each indentation, while keeping the VR values unchanged and testing the frictional properties of such surfaces at a fixed speed of 4.18 mm/s. Textured surfaces were also characterized, before and after the tribological tests, in terms of surface microgeometry and nanohardness, using a light microscope, a scanning electron microscope, an atomic force microscope, a contact profilometer and a nano-indenter. Notably, compared to the untextured samples, the microindented samples exhibited a much lower Coefficient of Friction (COF), with a friction reduction compared to the untextured case ranging from 45–65%, depending on the VR values. We noted that the adoption of large dimples allows the reduction of the COF, already at smaller VR value but, in such a case, the presence of bulges at the edge of the dimple worsens the wear resistance of the counter-surface. The local measurement of strength by nanoindentations allowed to clarify that the friction reduction is determined by the work hardening effect produced by the microindentation texturing. The proposed approach can be applied using specific tools to effectively and selectively affect the friction behaviour of components, during its use or its production (for example in stamping operations).

Abstract
Several countries in the Gulf of Guinea have economies based on the exploitation of raw materials, particularly oil. This oil exploitation is not without consequences for marine and coastal ecosystems. Maritime pollution by hydrocarbons is one of the factors affecting marine areas. Having a better understanding of this environment makes it possible to assess the impact of an oil spill on the environment or to study the effects of chronic pollution associated with shipping lanes, ports, oil platforms, pipelines or refineries. It is essential that oil spill detection and monitoring systems respond quickly to contain these hazards. This is why we believe that the use of remote sensing appears to be a potential avenue for the detection of oil slicks at sea. The present work is a retrospective study of oil slick pollution from 2015 to 2020. We propose a methodology based on radar imagery to highlight the presence of ocean oil slicks due to oil activities. Using the Sentinel 1 satellite, we mapped all the oil slicks, which enabled us to calculate the areas where the hydrocarbons and any oil spills spread. The results clearly show that the Congo region is subject to frequent oil spills.

Published: January 2024

Abstract
Nitrate compounds are among the pollutants of groundwater resources that in recent years in terms of agricultural development and human activities, their average rate is increasing. This ion may enter drinking water as it passes through the ground, or it may enter groundwater sources as a result of water contamination with organic matter and the accumulation of municipal and industrial waste, or the accumulation of animal and chemical fertilizers or the leakage of municipal sewage facilities. But in recent decades, increasing use of nitrogen fertilizers has led to the addition of nitrate in surface and groundwater. The data used in this study were first randomized and standardized and then divided into two groups of training and testing. 70% of the data were in the training group and the remaining 30% in the experimental group. Validation of model training was performed using k-fold cross validation method with a value of k = 5 in order to prevent over-fitting of models. The parameters of Random Forest, SVM and LS-SVM models were determined using Bayesian optimization algorithm. The objective function of the optimization algorithm was to minimize the MSE error value of the model. Based on the results, the Random Forest model was used with the Bagging algorithm and the parameters of minimum node size, number of trees and number of variables used were equal to 2, 10 and 3, respectively. The SVM model was trained with the RBF kernel function and the parameters of Box Constrait and Epsilon equal to 2.2156 and 0.0891, respectively, along with standardization of input and output data of the model. The LS-SVM model was also trained with RBF kernel function and setting parameters and kernel function equal to 3160/3160 and 19.7891/19, respectively. Taylor diagram results showed that the stochastic forest model and SVM had a higher correlation between observational and estimated data. Therefore, based on the results, the stochastic forest model is more consistent with the observation data and predicts nitrate changes well.
