Resum: El tema del XIII Congrés Internacional de l’AISC, «Històries d’un mar en comú. Alimentació, vida i mort a les rutes de la Mediterrània oriental», ens proporciona una ocasió per a passar revista a les traduccions de la Ilíada i l’Odissea. En el nostre paper ens fixem en les diverses traduccions al català d’aquests poemes que són la base de la nostra cultura europea i que mostren per una banda la vida i la mort davant l’alta ciutat de Troia i per l’altra el viatge d’Ulisses de retorn a la seva illa d’Ítaca. Les traduccions analitzades són les que considerem clàssiques, començant per les dues grans Odissees ribianes, però també les més modernes, com les dues Ilíades de 2019, una en prosa de Montserrat Ros per a Adesiara i una en vers per a la Bernat Metge Universal de Pau Sabaté. Per a la nostra anàlisi tenim en compte les decisions dels traductors respecte als colors, respecte a la mar amb tots els seus qualificatius i respecte als símils, especialment els símils llargs i per tant més complexos.Parole chiave: Traducció, Homer, epítets homèrics, símils .Abstract: The theme of the XIII International Congress of the AISC, «Stories of a common sea. Food, life and death on the routes of the eastern Mediterranean», provides us with an opportunity to review the translations of the Iliad and the Odyssey. In our paper we examine the various translations into Catalan of these poems which are the basis of our European culture and which show on the one hand life and death before the high city of Troy, and on the other the journey of Odysseus’ return to his island of Ithaca. The translations analyzed are the ones we consider classics, starting with the two great Ribian Odysseys, but also the most modern ones, such as the two Iliads of 2019, one in prose by Montserrat Ros for Adesiara and one in verse for Bernat Metge Universal by Pau Sabaté. We take into account the translators’ decisions regarding colors, regarding the sea with all its qualifiers and regarding similes, especially the longest and more complex ones.Keywords: Translation, Homer, Homeric epithets, similes
Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1 plays a more prominent role than activating transcription factor 4 or the p53 tumour suppressor in thapsigargin-induced G1 arrest
Authors: van Zyl Erin , Peneycad Claire , Perehiniak Evan , McKay Bruce C.

Background
Thapsigargin (Tg) is a compound that inhibits the SERCA calcium transporter leading to decreased endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ levels. Many ER chaperones are required for proper folding of membrane-associated and secreted proteins, and they are Ca2+ dependent. Therefore, Tg leads to the accumulation of misfolded proteins in the ER, activating the unfolded protein response (UPR) to help restore homeostasis. Tg reportedly induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in many cell types but how these changes are linked to the UPR remains unclear. The activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) plays a key role in regulating ER stress-induced gene expression so we sought to determine if ATF4 is required for Tg-induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis using ATF4-deficient cells.

Methods
Two-parameter flow cytometric analysis of DNA replication and DNA content was used to assess the effects of Tg on cell cycle distribution in isogenic HCT116-derived cell lines either expressing or lacking ATF4. For comparison, we similarly assessed the Tg response in isogenic cell lines deleted of the p53 tumour suppressor and the p53-regulated p21WAF1 cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor important in G1 and G2 arrests induced by DNA damage.

Results
Tg led to a large depletion of the S phase population with a prominent increase in the proportion of HCT116 cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Importantly, this effect was largely independent of ATF4. We found that loss of p21WAF1 but not p53 permitted Tg treated cells to enter S phase and synthesize DNA. Therefore, p21WAF1plays an important role in these Tg-induced cell cycle alterations while ATF4 and p53 do not. Remarkably, the ATF4-, p53-and p21WAF1-deficient cell lines were all more sensitive to Tg-induced apoptosis. Taken together, p21WAF1 plays a larger role in regulating Tg-induced G1 and G2 arrests than ATF4 or p53 but these proteins similarly contribute to protection from Tg-induced apoptosis. This work highlights the complex network of stress responses that are activated in response to ER stress.

Published: December 2023

The study of the effect of hall and ion slip on an inclined conductor on MHD natural and forced convection in a heated wavy chamber with a constant transversal magnetic field applied. The governing momentum and energy equation were solved by applying finite central scheme approximation and the resulting partial difference equations were solved by MATLAB software. The study showed that an increase heat absorption coefficient lowers the surface heat transfer thus lowering flow rate. An increase in Rayleigh number increases the flow rate while an increase in the angle of inclination of the conductor increases the buoyancy force component thereby increasing the flow rate. The results further showed that flow rate became higher at an inclination angle of 90º. In addition, the results also showed that an increase in Hartmann increases the flow rate. The Hartmann number, Rayleigh number and Absorption coefficient are analytically discussed and represented in tables and graphical profiles with respect to flow velocity and temperature profile due to engineering demand. This current study a direct application in the development of MHD propelled vessels in the marine and space-craft department.

The present work aimed to examine the causes, clinical manifestations, prevalence, and diverse patterns in laboratory and clinical parameters among patients with polycythemia attending our outpatient clinics at the Indus Hospital and Health Network.
Study Design: The present work is retrospective observational study which included all cases of polycythemia.
Place and Duration of the Study: The study was conducted at a tertiary health care center in Karachi, Pakistan during October 2019 to July 2021.
Methodology: The data from the patient diagnosed with polycythemia was entered and analyzed by using SPSS version 24.0. Descriptive statistics as per the Gaussian Normality distribution (Sapiro-Wilk) were computed along with frequencies. The association where applicable was calculated via standard statistical methods with the chi square test for categorical while independent sample t-test for the continuous variables. The level of statistical significance will be set at P < 0.05.
Results: During the investigated period, a total of 33 patients were diagnosed with polycythemia demonstrating a notable male predominance (82%). The majority of the patients exhibited secondary erythrocytosis (85%) with only a minority (15%) diagnosed with polycythemia vera. Of the identified cases of secondary erythrocytosis a significant proportion (46%) was observed in individuals who were smokers while other were found with hypoxic pulmonary disease, hepatitis, and chronic kidney disease. In secondary erythrocytosis 21 patients (75%) required venesection for symptom reduction, while 7 (25%) were closely monitored due to their asymptomatic status. On the contrary all cases of polycythemia vera required a comprehensive treatment approach including venesections, cytoreduction with hydroxyurea and low dose aspirin.

Red Badge of Courage and Jalan Tak Ada Ujung: Comparing Indonesia’s and America’s National Masculinity
Authors: Hidayatullah Danial 
Published: December 2023

Masculinity linked to conflict or war is often seen as hegemonic. This research offers two literary texts from two different countries: Stephen Crane’s The Red Badge of Courage (2005) and Muchtar Lubis’ Jalan Tak Ada Ujung (The Endless Road) (1952). By comparing and contrasting both countries in terms of non-hegemonic masculinities of the protagonist characters, the pattern of masculinities of each nation, which is often overlooked, can be explainable. We can identify variations of masculinities in classic fiction, which reflect the national discourses. By utilizing the notion of focalization, the method of narratology can locate the power relation and agency in the story. Post-war anxiety as well as the ideology of fatherism and momism constructs the national gendered discoures. Indonesia’s masculinity resists the legitimate and privileged as well as the status-quo concept of national masculinity. The resistance implies that Indonesia’s national masculinity is more diverse and progressive than America’s is.

ImportancePatients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who have a sustained deep molecular response using tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) can safely attempt to stop their use. As these medications are very costly, this change in treatment protocols may result in large savings.ObjectiveTo estimate future savings from attempting to stop TKI use among patients with CML who have deep molecular response.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsA microsimulation model was developed for this decision analytical modeling study to estimate costs for US adults moving from using a TKI, to attempting discontinuation and then reinitiating TKI therapy, if clinically appropriate. Estimates were calculated for US patients who currently have CML and simulated newly diagnosed cohorts of patients over the next 30 years.ExposureAttempting to stop using a TKI.Main Outcomes and MeasuresEstimated savings after attempted discontinuation of TKI use.ResultsA simulated population of individuals with CML in 2018 and future populations were created using estimates from the SEER*Explorer website. The median age at diagnosis was 66 years for men and 65 years for women. Between 2022 and 2052, the savings associated with eligible patients attempting discontinuation of TKI therapy was estimated at more than $30 billion among those currently diagnosed and over $15 billion among those who will develop CML in the future, for a total savings of over $54 billion by 2052 for drug treatment and polymerase chain reaction testing. The estimate is conservative as it does not account for complications and other health care–associated costs for patients continuing TKI therapy.Conclusions and RelevanceThe findings of this decision analytical modeling study of patients with CML suggest that attempting discontinuation of TKI therapy could save over $54 billion during the next 30 years. Further education for patients and physicians is needed to safely increase the number of patients who can successfully attain treatment-free remission.

ObjectivePreclinical studies suggest that thiazolidinediones (TZDs) may have a protective effect on rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but evidence from population‐based studies is scarce. This study aimed to assess the association between use of TZDs and incidence of RA in a retrospective cohort of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).MethodsA retrospective cohort of patients with T2DM who were new users of TZDs or alpha glucosidase inhibitors (AGIs) was assembled. We applied the inverse probability of treatment weighted Cox model to estimate the hazard ratio (HR) of RA incidence associated with the use of TZDs compared with AGIs.ResultsThe final analysis included 56,796 new users of AGIs and 14,892 new users of TZDs. The incidence of RA was 187.4 and 135.2 per 100,000 person‐years in AGI users and TZD users, respectively. Compared with use of AGIs, TZD use was associated with a reduction in RA incidence, with an HR of 0.72 (95% confidence interval [95% CI] 0.59–0.89). HRs for cumulative use of TZDs for 0.51 to 4.0 years and more than 4 years with incidence of RA were 0.55 (95% CI 0.35–0.88) and 0.74 (95% CI 0.57–0.98), respectively. Various subgroup analyses and sensitivity analyses were consistent with the primary analysis.ConclusionUse of TZDs is associated with a decreased risk of incident RA in patients with T2DM.

AbstractAlthough the structural and electrical engineering of transition metal dichalcogenides using atomic doping or doping‐induced phase modulation can be used to attain high‐performance and wavelength‐tunable optoelectronic devices, accessible substitutional doping to overcome the large lattice mismatch between the host and guest atom‐related bonding states remains elusive. This study corroborates an innovative synthetic route for molybdenum disulfide (MoS2)‐derived two‐dimensional (2D) quaternary semiconductors substitutionally doped with Re and O using a solution‐based large‐area compatible approach combined with the thermal evaporation of dopants. The substitutional doping of Re into MoS2 crystals with a large lattice mismatch is effectively accomplished by adopting structurally unstable host films, resulting in the large‐scale synthesis of 2D quaternary multi‐layers with a Re doping concentration >10%. Comprehensive spectroscopic and microscopic evaluations are performed to determine the efficacy of the host films with structural instability for the synthesis of 2D RexMo(1‐x)O2yS2(1‐y) quaternary multi‐layers. The capability of the quaternary semiconductor for versatile nanophotonic devices is validated by ascertaining the simultaneous enhancement of the photoelectrical properties with wide‐range optical absorption and photoelectrochemical properties, as compared with those of their binary counterparts.

AbstractLocal laser‐induced oxidation is an extremely valuable technique to perform high‐throughput optimization across multidimensional parameter sets. In this work, a versatile method is presented for the synthesis of titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin‐films with varying crystalline structures through the use of localized, visible, continuous‐wave laser‐processing. By controlling the laser intensity and the exposure time, the conversion of amorphous titanium disulfide (a‐TiS2) precursor films into distinct phases of TiO2 is achieved and a laser‐induced oxidation phase diagram is constructed with the resulting material phases, including anatase, rutile, and black TiO2. By utilizing the dependence of phase formation on the rate and duration of laser energy input, mixtures of anatase and rutile phases are fabricated with controlled spatial arrangements. Photocatalytic properties of the synthesized films are evaluated using the degradation of nitrogen oxide (NOx) gas under UV illumination and an organic dye under white‐light illumination, revealing that mixtures of anatase and rutile phases demonstrate superior photocatalytic activity. The laser‐induced oxidation method highlighted showcases a strategy for precisely tailored phase composition for directly tunable properties, paving the way for in‐depth studies into structure‐property relationships in photocatalysis and other applications of metal oxide films.

AbstractZinc‐ion hybrid capacitors (ZICs) are of interest for their optimal balance between power and energy density. Among the cathode materials, silicon is particularly attractive due to its abundance and potential compatibility with the microelectronics industry. However, silicon‐based materials exhibit specific capacitances far below 100 mF cm−2 because of their inherently low electronic and ionic transport, making them less competitive than other nanomaterials such as carbon and MXenes. In this study, state‐of‐the‐art silicon‐based ZICs using Mg‐doped porous silicon (PSi) derived from silica aerogels are constructed. The improved electronic conductivity achieved by Mg doping, combined with enhanced ion diffusion promoted by the porous structure, results in excellent electrochemical properties of the ZIC. Consequently, the prepared ZIC exhibits a specific capacitance of 106.1 mF cm−2 at 0.2 mA cm−2 with remarkable cyclic stability (92% retention after 20 000 cycles). Additionally, the pouch ZICs using gel electrolytes demonstrate good rate capability and a long lifespan, indicating significant potential for practical applications. These results underscore the potential of heteroatom‐doped PSi as a cathode for ZICs.
