Notazioni neumatiche dei secoli XI–XII nella Biblioteca Capitolare di Verona : Riflessioni e spunti di ricerca - Figures
Authors: Cunego Giovanni 
Published: December 2023

<p><em>The Materiality of Chant Manuscripts</em> is an innovative multi-author project dealing with the complex interconnections between learning, writing and performing chant in the Middle Ages. A number of different methodological approaches have been employed, with the aim of beginning to understand the phenomenon of chant transmission over a large geographical area, linking and contrasting modern definitions of East and West. Thus, in spite of this wide geographical spread, and the consequent variety of rites, languages and musical styles involved, the common thread of parallels and similarities between various chant repertoires arising from the need to fix oral repertories in a written form, and the challenges involved in so doing, are what bring this wide variety of repertoires and approaches together. It is the Editors’ hope that this multi-centric, multi-disciplinary approach will encourage scholars working in these areas to consider their work as part of a much larger geographical and historical picture, and thus reveal to reader and listener more, and far richer, patterns of connections and developments than might otherwise have been suspected. </p>

Design guidelines for sustainable utilization of agricultural appropriate technology: Enhancing human factors and user experience
Authors: Rahman Taufik , Yassierli  , Widyanti Ari 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The utilization of appropriate technology (AT) has become the Indonesian government strategy to increase productivity of agricultural commodities due to its simplicity and cost-effectiveness. However, the current utilization of AT remains suboptimal mostly due to design deficiencies that insufficiently account for human factors and user experience. In response, the aim of this study is to establish comprehensive AT design guidelines for sustainable AT utilization, focused on agricultural processing machines. An intensive observation was initially conducted in a rural community in Indonesia, to summarize difficulties faced by AT users. Supported by an exhaustive review of literature, a total of 44 human factors related design criteria were defined. Subsequently, these criteria underwent rigorous validation through a questionnaire administered to 197 respondents, consisting of AT designers, experts, and users. Employing the framework of principal component analysis (PCA), novel dimensions of AT design criteria were suggested, encompassing safety and error prevention, functionality and economics, user-friendly, low physical effort, physical workspace compatibility, and perceptible information. To augment the insights gleaned from the PCA, a matrix of importance-performance analysis was created, affording a map of the relative significance and concurrent performance of the defined criteria. The implications of this study are further discussed.
Pietro Aretino e Luciano di Samosata. Paradosso e parrhesia tra parola e immagine
Authors: Fantappiè Irene 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Pietro Aretino constantly flaunts his originality and uniqueness as a writer. This essay seeks to show that, on the contrary, his authorial figure arises from a rewriting and a ‘refiguring’ of Lucian, especially as far as the centrality of paradox and of parrhesia are concerned. The present study reinterprets or adduces hitherto ignored evidence (consisting of both textual and iconographic materials, such as portraits, marche editoriali, and medals) in order to reconstruct some key aspects of Aretino’s relationship to Lucian, thus questioning the traditional idea of the writer’s unfamiliarity with the processes of imitatio of antiquity. Aretino’s approach to Lucian is investigated on three different levels, i.e. the level of intertextuality, of themes and genres, and of authorship. Firstly, the analysis inspects how Aretino’s Dialogo was influenced by a specific collection of vernacular translations of Lucian (I dilettevoli dialogi, 1525). Furthermore, the essay unveils the close relationship between Dialogo and Lucian’s De parasito as a model of paradoxical eulogy, thereby showing that Aretino’s text not only reverses the structures of relevant literary genres (e.g. the Platonic dialogue) but also originates from a ‘positive’ imitation of other generic templates (such as the Lucianistic paradoxical encomium). Finally, new findings about the sources of Aretino’s motto veritas odium parit and of its iconography shed light on the way Aretino fashions himself as a parrhesiastes by reproducing and transforming – and therefore imitating – Lucian’s figura auctoris.
Theromancein Hispano-Jewish Communities (Tenth to Thirteenth Centuries)
Authors: Gutwirth Eleazar 
Published: December 2023

AbstractMost studies on the languages of the Jews in the tenth to thirteenth centuries in the Iberian Peninsula concentrate on Arabic and Hebrew, leaving theromanceaside. It is the purpose of this article to reassess this. It does so by assembling and interpreting evidence of language usage at that time and place. In some cases, the evidence has been relatively known in an isolated manner but is analyzed differently here. In others it has been ignored or is too recent to have been taken into consideration. The conclusion is that the romance was far more central in that culture than imagined before.
Citación, relaciones textuales y tradicionalidad en el discurso preeconómico español
Authors: Orense María Méndez 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
An important part of an argumentative text is to anticipate the potential criticisms made by the opponent and refute them with new arguments. This paper focuses on the linguistic strategies used to fulfill this pragmatic requirement in a corpus formed by representative works of the emerging Spanish economic thought in the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries. These texts, called in Spanish “arbitrios” and “proyectos”, form a new type of specialized discourse, which, placed at the service of the State, assumes the function of dealing with the phenomena that affect the economic system and proposes measures that guarantee its stability. Throughout the expositive sequences, the author introduces external voices to pretend doubts and objections and provide answers to them. Based on the studies on textual polyphony and the model of discourse relations, a diachronic analysis of this construction is conducted and patterns of linguistic traditionality are identified. The analysis leads to new data about the elaboration processes that took place in the non-literary high prose during the transit from the classical to the modern stages of the Spanish language.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
The synthesized compound N′-benzylidene-isonicotinohydrazide (N-BINH), was experimentally characterized using XRD and distinguished by using experimental spectroscopic methods. DFT, B3LYP method along with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set were applied to determine the optimal molecular geometry and vibrational wave numbers. Gauge Independent Atomic Orbital (GIAO) method and DFT were used to calculate the chemical shifts for 13C and 1H NMR in chloroform solvent. MEP analysis reveals that the site with an oxygen atom is the most reactive part of the N-BINH molecule. Computed UV–visible spectrum in MeOH and gas phase was generated by using the TD-DFT technique. The investigation also looked at electron localization function properties. Hirshfeld analysis demonstrates the 3D intermolecular interactions of the crystal surface, while fingerprint plots were used to elucidate the 2D interactions. By calculating the electrophilicity index, it was theoretically shown that the titled molecule could be bioactive. Further, molecular docking analysis was used to investigate the biological activity of the N-BINH with four distinct receptors to assess the finest ligand–protein interactions and similarity to the dynamic constituent.
CDK11 requires a critical activator SAP30BP to regulate pre‐mRNA splicing
Authors: Wang Changshou , Xu Lin , Du Chen , Yun Hao , Wang Keyun , Liu Hui , Ye Mingliang , Fan Jing , Zhou Yu , Cheng Hong 
Published: December 2023

AbstractCDK11 is an emerging druggable target for cancer therapy due to its prevalent roles in phosphorylating critical transcription and splicing factors and in facilitating cell cycle progression in cancer cells. Like other cyclin‐dependent kinases, CDK11 requires its cognate cyclin, cyclin L1 or cyclin L2, for activation. However, little is known about how CDK11 activities might be modulated by other regulators. In this study, we show that CDK11 forms a tight complex with cyclins L1/L2 and SAP30BP, the latter of which is a poorly characterized factor. Acute degradation of SAP30BP mirrors that of CDK11 in causing widespread and strong defects in pre‐mRNA splicing. Furthermore, we demonstrate that SAP30BP facilitates CDK11 kinase activities in vitro and in vivo, through ensuring the stabilities and the assembly of cyclins L1/L2 with CDK11. Together, these findings uncover SAP30BP as a critical CDK11 activator that regulates global pre‐mRNA splicing.
Aplicação da radiação infravermelha na identificação de adulterações em documentos: estudos de casos
Authors: Aparecida Buffoni de Campos Carneiro Lara 
Published: December 2023

Este artigo reúne estudos de casos acerca da aplicação da radiação infravermelha como ferramenta assertiva na identificação de sinais de adulteração em documentos. Utilizaram-se nas análises aparelhamento óptico disponível no Núcleo de Perícias Criminalísticas de Ribeirão Preto, permitindo a observação dos materiais periciados tanto sob a luz visível, como sob a radiação eletromagnética na região do infravermelho (radiação infravermelha). O conjunto procedimental aplicado permitiu, em alguns casos, diferenciar tintas de canetas esferográficas que se mostravam idênticas sob luz visível. Suas propriedades físico-químicas produziram, sob análise não destrutiva, distintos perfis ante a luminescência do infravermelho. Outros materiais, porém, demonstraram perfis de luminescência indistinguíveis. Nesses casos, o potencial da propriedade da absorção da radiação infravermelha na busca por características indicativas de adulteração de documentos foi demonstrado por meio da sua capacidade em revelar elementos grafoscópicos, tais como a pressão do traçado sobre o suporte.

Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE
Hypothermia in young infants may be secondary to an invasive bacterial infection. No studies have explored culture time-to-positivity (TTP) in hypothermic infants. Our objective was to compare TTP of blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cultures between pathogenic and contaminant bacteria in hypothermic infants ≤90 days of age.

METHODS
Secondary analysis of a retrospective cohort of 9 children’s hospitals. Infants ≤90 days of age presenting to the emergency department or inpatient setting with hypothermia from September 1, 2017, to May 5, 2021, with positive blood or CSF cultures were included. Differences in continuous variables between pathogenic and contaminant organism groups were tested using a 2-sample t test and 95% confidence intervals for the mean differences reported.

RESULTS
Seventy-seven infants met inclusion criteria. Seventy-one blood cultures were positive, with 20 (28.2%) treated as pathogenic organisms. Five (50%) of 10 positive CSF cultures were treated as pathogenic. The median (interquartile range [IQR]) TTP for pathogenic blood cultures was 16.8 (IQR 12.7–19.2) hours compared with 26.11 (IQR 20.5–48.1) hours for contaminant organisms (P &lt; .001). The median TTP for pathogenic organisms on CSF cultures was 34.3 (IQR 2.0–53.7) hours, compared with 58.1 (IQR 52–72) hours for contaminant CSF organisms (P &lt; .186).

CONCLUSIONS
Our study is the first to compare the TTP of blood and CSF cultures between pathogenic and contaminant bacteria in hypothermic infants. All pathogenic bacteria in the blood grew within 36 hours. No difference in TTP of CSF cultures between pathogenic and contaminant bacteria was detected.
Проблемы поэтики раннего Чехова в соотношении с газетным дискурсом
Authors: Zoltán Dominika 
Published: December 2023

В статье рассматриваются некоторые особенности поэтики ранних работ (1880–1885) А. П. Чехова в сопоставлении с современной ему газетой в качестве дискурса. В первой половине 1880-х годов завершается процесс, в результате которого ежедневная газета выдвигается как доминирующий орган в новой системе печати. Этим зарождается массовая коммуникации в России, необходимой частью которой являлась «малая пресса», то есть сфера юмористических журналов, тонких журна-лов и ежедневных газет, в которых Чехов начал публиковаться.В статье суммируются выводы исследований, реконструирующих культурное пространство рос-сийских газет и журналов обозначенного периода. Вводимое в целях сравнения понятие «газетный дискурс» понимается в статье как новое, единое пространство, которое стремится к универсально-му моделированию мира производством текстов. Газетный дискурс как термин отделяется от по-нятий «малой прессы» и «журналистики». В конце первой части рассматривается также понятие дискурсивной практики и интердискурсивности как один из видов интертекстуальности по клас-сификации Н. Фэркло.Во второй части суммируется типология, созданная А. Степановым для ранних текстов Чехова на основе смешения или смещения в них высказываний разных речевых жанров. В дальнейшем на основе типологии выделяются те юморески, в которых обыгрываются газетные речевые жан-ры. Для сравнения с практикой газет наиболее интересным из структурных типов ранних текстов является метонимическое рядоположение не имеющих общего референта высказываний одного или разных речевых жанров. И. Сухих считает, что в принципе метонимического упорядочения мелочишек (создание циклов, серий и списков) проявляется требование газет и журналов того времени. «Мысли читателей газет и журналов» и «Записка» интерпретируются как построенные по принципу списка юморески, высмеивающие общую практику газетного дискурса – стремление к универсальности.В двух юморесках освещается элемент пародийного интердискурса: построение по принципу спи-ска. Этот структурный тип в общем плане в творческой эволюции Чехова ведет к более сложным, составным структурам типа «Жалобной книги». Часто используемый молодым Чеховым газетный жанр реклам и объявлений также может быть переосмыслен как составная структура типа серий или списка. Интердискурсивный элемент в творческой лаборатории Чехова трансформируется в художественный прием: метонимическая логика составления списка становится индексом состо-яния, духовности, атмосферы изображаемой действительности.
Perceptions of psychedelic personality change, determinants of use, setting and drug moderation: Toward a holistic model
Authors: Weiss Brandon , Sleep Chelsea E. , Beller Nicholas M. , Erritzoe David , Campbell W. Keith 
Published: December 2023

AbstractBackgroundStudies have shown evidence for long-term effects of psychedelics on personality, but comprehensive models of psychedelic-mediated personality changes have yet to be explored.AimsThe present study aims to investigate (1) perceptions of personality change in the general population, (2) moderators of perceived personality change including setting and drug type, and (3) whether personality predisposes individuals to use psychedelics.MethodPaid participants with experience using psychedelic (N = 218), non-users with interest in using psychedelics (N = 104), and non-users without interest in using psychedelic (N = 104) completed an online survey following recruitment from Amazon Mechanical Turk. Psychedelic users were asked to complete written open-ended accounts of perceived personality changes that they attribute to their most intense psychedelic experience. Thematic and factor analyses were undertaken to identify themes of perceived psychedelic change and their organizational structure.Results/OutcomesThematic analyses resulted in 52 unique personality change themes, and exploratory factor analyses yielded eight thematic factors (Unitive Spiritual, Gratitude Absorption, Purpose Freedom, Compassion Understanding, Emotional Stability, Openness Perspective, Connection to Self, and Neuroticism Caution). Interest in psychedelic use among non-users was associated with higher openness and neuroticism. Psychedelic users tended to be more open and extraverted, and less neurotic than non-users, and interested non-users tended to be higher in openness than uninterested non-users.Conclusion/InterpretationThe present results inform a tentative model of how personality leads to psychedelic use, how psychedelic use leads to changes in personality, and how setting and drug moderate different types of changes in personality. Research and clinical implications are discussed, including (1) hypotheses for future prospective and experimental research, (2) the value of creating multi-faceted, holistic measures that reflect the diversity and organizational structure of possible psychedelic changes, and (3) the value of allowing such evidence to guide novel psychedelic-assisted therapeutics.

Abstract
The current work presents a novel flexible multifunctional platform for biological interface applications. The use of titania nanotube arrays (TNAs) as a multifunctional material is explored for soft-tissue interface applications. In vitro biocompatibility of TNAs to brain-derived cells was first examined by culturing microglia cells—the resident immune cells of the central nervous system on the surface of TNAs. The release profile of an anti-inflammatory drug, dexamethasone from TNAs-on-polyimide substrates, was then evaluated under different bending modes. Flexible TNAs-on-polyimide sustained a linear release of anti-inflammatory dexamethasone up to ~11 days under different bending conditions. Finally, microfabrication processes for patterning and transferring TNA microsegments were developed to facilitate structural stability during device flexing and to expand the set of compatible polymer substrates. The techniques developed in this study can be applied to integrate TNAs or other similar nanoporous inorganic films onto various polymer substrates.

Impact statement
Titania nanotube arrays (TNAs) are highly tunable and biocompatible structures that lend themselves to multifunctional implementation in implanted devices. A particularly important aspect of titania nanotubes is their ability to serve as nano-reservoirs for drugs or other therapeutic agents that slowly release after implantation. To date, TNAs have been used to promote integration with rigid, dense tissues for dental and orthopedic applications. This work aims to expand the implant applications that can benefit from TNAs by integrating them onto soft polymer substrates, thereby promoting compatibility with soft tissues. The successful direct growth and integration of TNAs on polymer substrates mark a critical step toward developing mechanically compliant implantable systems with drug delivery from nanostructured inorganic functional materials. Diffusion-driven release kinetics and the high drug-loading efficiency of TNAs offer tremendous potential for sustained drug delivery for scientific investigations, to treat injury and disease, and to promote device integration with biological tissues. This work opens new opportunities for developing novel and more effective implanted devices that can significantly improve patient outcomes and quality of life.
