Role of crystallographic orientation in material behaviour under nanoindentation: Molecular Dynamics study
Authors: Kurgan Aneta , Madej Lukasz 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The mechanical properties of materials can be analysed under deformation conditions by various laboratory tests. However, such experimental investigations become extremely complicated and often even impossible at the lower length scales where the arrangement of the atomic planes is considered. In this case, computational materials science is a robust alternative to extend the capabilities of laboratory tests. Therefore, the molecular dynamics technique was selected in the current work to evaluate the role of the local grain crystallographic orientation during nanoindentation testing. A pure aluminium sample was selected as a case study. For the sake of clarity, two distinctively different crystallographic orientations cube {100}<001> and hard {110}<011> were investigated in a set of arrangements: monocrystalline, bicrystalline, and polycrystalline. The influence of the substrate and the neighbouring grains on the material response to local deformation was evaluated. The research used two types of indenters: spherical and sharp-tipped. Results obtained were analysed with respect to the arrangement of atoms and load-displacement curves. This research proved that the role of crystallographic orientation in material behaviour under nanoindentation should not be neglected during the interpretation of data from this test.
Impact of Remote Working on Recreational Physical Activity (RPA) Behaviours – a Case Study of the Covid-19 Lockdown in Poland
Authors: Kantyka Joanna , Maciąg Justyna 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The aim of this article is to describe and explain changes in people’s recreational behaviours caused by the shift to remote work (RW) or work from home (WFH) due to lockdowns during the Covid-19 pandemic. A literature review revealed a cognitive, methodological and applicative gap in this area. This relationship has not been analysed so far, particularly among Poles.
The authors developed an electronic questionnaire using a framework designed to study RPA behaviours. A survey based on the questionnaire was conducted from 20 May to 31 Oct. 2020 and included 533 respondents, with 371 people experiencing changes at work, 280 of whom shifted to RW/WFH. A combination of quantitative and qualitative data analysis methods (descriptive statistics and content analysis techniques, affinity diagram, relationship diagram) was used to analyse the survey results. The results of the qualitative analysis allowed a description of changes in the respondents’ lifestyles induced by the transition to RW/WFH. The results of the quantitative data analysis showed unequivocally that taking up RW/WFH had a negative impact on RPA behaviours. The frequency and duration of workouts decreased.
The novelty lies in demonstrating the relationship between remote working/work from home and RPA and the inventive methodological approach. The results are universal and can be used to design work-life balance programmes for remote employees.
Metaphorical Meanings of Some Prepositions in English Expressions of Sadness
Authors: Csillag Andrea 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The paper studies the language of sadness in English on a corpus of conventional expressions and aims at investigating the choice of prepositions combined with a number of sadness terms (e.g. sad about his failure, unhappy at his misfortunate, depressed by the news, sorry for being late). The paper finds that the prepositional phrases name the causes triggering sadness and there are correlations between the prepositions about, at, by, for and over and the types of causes combined together, which can be explained the metaphorical meanings of the prepositions.
Aspectualizers and their Complementation in English and Romanian
Authors: Novakov Predrag , Lazović Mihaela 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Aspectualizers as verbs indicating phases in the development of events are typically divided into ingressive (denoting beginning), continuative (denoting continuation) and egressive (denoting ending). These verbs require specific complementation with the lexical verbs which are paired with the aspectualizers. Their analysis starts from the features of such complementation in English (subordinate non-finite infinitival and participial clauses) and compares them with the features of their Romanian translation equivalents. This corpus-based research (with the examples from modern British novels) focuses on the structural characteristics of the complementation in the two languages, lexical aspect of the verbs in the complementation (activities, states, accomplishments, achievements), as well as similarities and differences between the two languages in that respect.

In the Shadow of the Cuckoo Clock. The Subversive Realism of the Third Man
Authors: More Octavian 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
With a view to exemplifying how film noir can effectively combine elements of expressionism and realism through a participatory viewing experience, this paper provides a discussion of The Third Man as a cinematic text that concomitantly reiterates traditional insular values in times of global conflict and strengthens the individuality of post-war British cinema against the pressures of the American film industry.
Searching for the Neo-Colonial Informant in the Farming Of Bones
Authors: Pîrciu Alexandru 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The paper analyses instances of mimicry as they appear in Danticat’s historiographic fiction, The Farming of Bones. More specifically, it will examine why and how some characters appear accomplices in the brutal Parsley Massacre provoked by the Trujillo regime. Besides its literary dimension, the analysis can be said to be relevant from a cultural and socio-historical perspective as well because it seeks to reveal the emergence of a process which will be called inner colonisation and a new version of the native informant, which will be referred to as the neo-colonial informant.

The Interracial Church and Racialised Memory
Authors: Gaál-Szabó Peter 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Racial integration, reconciliation, and interracial culture have presented difficulties within churches, often seen as intractable problems. Situated in racialised America, the churches have to counter the social/context, which members are born into and are thus prone to reproducing in their interracial encounters. Fostering a balanced ethical remembering can help conceive the self in terms of the other to negotiate mutually acceptable identities.

Authors: Porumbescu Alexandra 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The study explores the situation of Romanian work migrants employed in elderly home care (badanti) in Italy, in the context of temporary restrictions on the freedom of movement within the European Union during the coronavirus pandemic. The general objective of the research consists in contributing to the understanding of how a particular situation of crisis and the subsequent restrictions enforced may impact the socio-professional category in question. In this context, an exploratory investigation was conducted, by the use of semi-structured interviews with people who have or used to have this occupation in Italy. The aim of the interviews was to identify particular, subjective aspects of their experiences, and, at the same time, to investigate their perception of the transformations occurred due to this crisis. The results of the study offer insight on the individual decision-making process in the matter of remaining in Italy, returning to the country of origin or re-migrating, and the ways in which short-time legislative changes affected these decisions, as well as the effects of the pandemic on this specific socio-economic category.

YENİDOĞANLARDA ROTASYONEL TROMBOELASTOGRAFİ İLE UMBİLİKAL VENÖZ KATETER İLİŞKİLİ TROMBOZ GELİŞİM RİSKİNİN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ
Authors: KAYKI Gözdem , BÜYÜKEREN Melek , ÇELİK Tolga 
Published: December 2023

Amaç: Yenidoğan döneminde tromboz gelişimi riski yüksektir ve en sık nedeni ise kateter ilişkili trombozlardır. Hangi bebeklerin daha riskli olduğunu önceden tespit etmeyi sağlayan bir yöntem henüz mevcut değildir. Çalışmanın amacı, umbilikal venöz kateter takılan yenidoğanlarda, rotasyonel tromboelastografi kullanarak kateter ilişkili tromboz gelişme riskinin öngörülebilirliğini araştırmaktır.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitesinde izlenen, umbilikal venöz kateter takılan ve umbilikal kateterin bir haftadan uzun kalacağı öngörülen hastalar çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Kateter takılmadan önce hastalardan kan örneği alınarak rotasyonel tromboelastografi ile analizler yapılmıştır. Hastalar, bu sonuçlardan haberi olmayan bir radyolog tarafından kateter çıkarıldıktan sonra tromboz açısından Doppler ultrasonografi (USG) ile değerlendirimiştir.
Bulgular: Çalışmaya dahil edilen hastaların ortalama gebelik yaşı 36.5±1.73 hafta, doğum ağırlığı ortanca değeri 3005 (IQR 1335) gramdır. Ekstrinsik rotasyonel tromboelastografi (EXTEM) ölçümlerinde; ortalama koagülasyon zamanı (CT) 160±92 sn, ortalama maksimal pıhtı sağlamlığı (MCF) 5±1.15 mm, fibrinojen rotasyonel tromboelastografi (FIBTEM) ölçümlerinde ortalama MCF 5±1.15 mm saptanmıştır. Kateter çıkarıldıktan sonra hastaların hiçbirinde umbilikal vende tromboz saptanmamıştır.
Sonuç: Daha önceki veriler ışığında EXTEM’de CT’nin 68 mm ve FIBTEM’deki MCF’nin >24 mm olmasının tromboz riskini gösterdiği bilinmektedir. Çalışmada tromboz saptanmaması; bu belirteçlerin riski doğru öngörebildiğini desteklemektedir.

Authors: BOSTAN ÇEVİK Ecem , ŞANLI Cihat , KANDUR Yaşar 
Published: December 2023

Objective: Chest pain in children, especially in adolescence, constitutes a significant proportion of the presentations to pediatric cardiology clinics. We aimed to determine the frequency of chest pain causes in the pediatric age group and the importance of echocardiography.
Material and Methods: We retrospectively examined the etiological and epidemiological characteristics of patients with chest pain who were admitted to Kırıkkale University Medical Faculty Hospital Pediatric Cardiology Clinic and Pediatric Emergency Service between 2014 and 2019.
Results: One thousand hundred sixty-four patients were enrolled in this study. The mean age of the patients was 12.9±2.0 years (range 10-17 years). Echocardiographic evaluation was performed in 87.9% (n=1023) of 1164 patients. In 769 (75.2%) patients, there was no cardiac abnormality. Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) was detected in 164 (16.0%) patients. Out of these patients, 116 (11.3%) also had mitral insufficiency (MI). There was a female preponderance (117/164, 71.4%) among the patients with MVP. Patients with normal echocardiography findings, were compared with patients who had MVP+MI with respect to mean hemoglobin, mean corpuscular volume, Creatine kinase, Creatine kinase- MB, troponin, pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, and C-reaktif protein levels. There was no significant difference between these groups with respect to these parameters.
Conclusion: We showed that MVP/MI is the most common cause of cardiac related chest pain in children. Therefore, chest pain, especially with physical examination findings, such as a murmur, should be evaluated by a pediatric cardiologist, ideally by echocardiography.

Published: December 2023

Objective: Methotrexate (MTX) is a folic acid analogue chemotherapeutic used in the treatment of some malignant tumors and autoimmune diseases. In addition to its antitumoral properties, it can also exhibit toxic effects on the kidney and intestines. Bilberry (BB) fruit is a potent natural antioxidant rich in anthocyanidins. The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential ameliorating effects of BB against MTX-induced intestinal damage using biochemical and histological methods.
Material and Methods: Twenty-one adult female Sprague Dawley rats were divided into three equal groups. No procedure was performed on the control group (ControlG), while the MTX group (MTXG) and MTX+BB extract group (MTX+BBG) received a single intraperitoneal dose of 30 mg/kg MTX on the first day of the experiment. MTX+BBG also received 200 mg/kg BB extract by oral gavage once daily for five days starting on the first day of the experiment. Half the intestinal tissues removed from the duodenal region at the experiment were used for biochemical evaluation, and the other half for histological examination.
Results: Malondialdehyde (MDA), total oxidant status (TOS), oxidative stress index (OSI), and 8-oxo-2′-deoxyguanosine (8- OHdG) values were all higher in MTXG intestinal tissues than in ControlG. MDA, TOS, OSI, and 8-OHdG values were lower in MTX+BBG than in MTXG. In addition, caspase-3 levels in MTXG were higher than those in both ControlG and MTX+BBG, while total antioxidant status (TAS) values were lower. In terms of histology, villous hemorrhage, inflammatory cell infiltration, fusion, and degeneration in the villus epithelium were present in MTXG intestinal tissue, and the total damage score was also high. Improvement in all these parameters was present in MTX+BBG.
Conclusion: Orally administered BB extract can improve MTX-induced intestinal damage through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.
