A HUMAN IN SPACE OF MATERIAL CULTURE
Authors: Mihailova Nadezhda V. 
Published: August 2023

Purpose. The article is devoted to analysis of material culture as space of human existence. The subject of the analysis is a system of human relations with space of material culture. The author aims to reveal essence of a man as a biosocial being through analysis of a structure of material culture and its place in a cultural system as a whole.
Methodology. The research is based on a principle of system analysis, culturological and cultural anthropological approaches, as well as on typologization and analysis of written sources methods.
Results. The results of the work are that the author considers material culture as consisting of a number of groups of elements, both external to a human (things, technics, technologies), and a human oneself through one`s physicality and body technologies (physical culture). A position of these elements in a coordinate system “universal – regional (general) – specific” is analysed.
Practical implications. Results of the study can be applied in fields of human socialization and enculturation, analysis of cross-cultural interactions.
THE THEME OF THE HEART IN THE BYZANTINE TRADITION, RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CULTURE AND RUSSIAN PHILOSOPHY
Authors: Makarov Ivan V. 
Published: August 2023

The article is devoted to the problem of cardiognosia as the leading one for Russian theological-philosophical and secular religious thought. A special place in Russian (especially in religious) philosophy is occupied by the theme of love and the heart. The main question that we pose in this article is whether the domestic cardiognosy has remained in line with purely Byzantine religious philosophy, or whether our tradition has found an original approach to the study of the heart. This problem is quite relevant due to the fact that modern Russia has often been compared with the Byzantine Empire, such comparative studies have been found for the third decade in various historical, cultural and philosophical studies. The study of the topic of the heart also falls into the piggy bank of spiritual and moral values, to the preservation of which the strategic interests of modern Russian society are addressed.
Russian Orthodox culture reveals the theme of the heart in the ascetic tradition of asceticism, and Russian religious philosophy calls the heart the key to understanding the mentality of the Russian person. Modern researchers focus on the integrative function of the heart. Russian Russian Orthodox culture acts as a bridge between Byzantine traditions and Russian philosophy, and modern Russian philosophy considers the heart to be a place of synthesis of science and art culture.
The results of the article can be applied in the framework of the creation of the concept of spiritual and moral development and education of the personality of a citizen of Russia.
INTEGRATION OF TRADITIONAL CULTURE AND MODERN TECHNOLOGY: AN EXPLORATION OF THE OPTIMIZATION OF CULTURAL ELEMENTS AND WATER SELF-PURIFICATION SYSTEMS IN THE TRADITIONAL CHINESE WATERSCAPE DESIGN
Authors: Zixuan Yue 
Published: August 2023

Traditional Chinese waterscape design is a profound cultural symbol and a perfect embodiment of the natural landscape. The philosophical ideas, aesthetic concepts and cultural connotations embedded in traditional Chinese culture have played an important role in the design of traditional water features. However, traditional water features have struggled to maintain their lasting beauty due to their impact on the environment and ecology. With the development of modern technology and advances in water management theory and techniques, modern water treatment systems have become an important means of solving water management and ecological and environmental problems. Combining traditional cultural elements with modern water self-purification systems has become an effective way to optimise traditional water features.
This paper focuses on the cultural elements and water self-purification systems embedded in the design of traditional Chinese water features, and ways to optimise them with the help of modern technology. Firstly, the cultural background of traditional Chinese garden water features is analysed in terms of their unique traditional cultural elements, design methods and characteristics. Then, through the analysis and study of modern water management theories and technologies, the principles of realisation and optimisation strategies of water treatment are discussed. Finally, the combination of traditional cultural elements and modern water purification is used to explore in depth how traditional Chinese waterscape design can integrate traditional and modern elements, making it convenient for people while having a positive impact on the natural environment and ecology. The findings of this paper help to promote the combination of traditional culture and modern technology, and provide references and lessons for the environmental development of traditional Chinese waterscape design.
(No-)Betting Pareto Optima Under Rank-Dependent Utility
Authors: Beißner Patrick , Boonen Tim , Ghossoub Mario 
Published: August 2023

In a pure-exchange economy with no aggregate uncertainty, we characterize in closed form and full generality Pareto-optimal allocations between two agents who maximize (nonconcave) rank-dependent utilities (RDU). We then derive a necessary and sufficient condition for Pareto optima to be no-betting allocations (i.e., deterministic allocations or full insurance allocations). This condition depends only on the probability weighting functions of the two agents and not on their (concave) utility of wealth. Hence, with RDU preferences, it is the difference in probabilistic risk attitudes given common beliefs rather than heterogeneity or ambiguity in beliefs that is a driver of betting behavior. As by-product of our analysis, we answer the question of when sunspots matter in this economy. Funding: M.

High-average-power thin-tapered-rod ultrafast laser amplifier with gradient-doped Yb:YAG crystal
Authors: Kuznetsov Ivan , Chizhov Sergey , Palashov Oleg 
Published: August 2023

Gradient doping in thin-rod and thin-tapered-rod active elements was proposed and implemented. Thermal and laser processes in such elements were studied theoretically and experimentally. It was shown that the use of tapered active elements with gradient doping enables simultaneous gain enhancement and reduction of the temperature of the active medium, thereby increasing amplification efficiency and improving beam quality. An amplifier with unique cumulative parameters: an average power of 150 W and an amplification efficiency of 35% with beam quality parameter M2=1.62×1.53 was developed.
Optimizing self-interference digital holography for single-molecule localization
Authors: Li Shaoheng , Kner Peter A. 
Published: August 2023

Self-interference digital holography (SIDH) can image incoherently emitting objects over large axial ranges from three two-dimensional images. By combining SIDH with single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM), incoherently emitting objects can be localized with nanometer precision over a wide axial range without mechanical refocusing. However, background light substantially degrades the performance of SIDH due to the relatively large size of the hologram. To optimize the performance of SIDH, we performed simulations to study the optimal hologram radius (R
h
) for different levels of background photons. The results show that by reducing the size of the hologram, we can achieve a localization precision of better than 60 nm laterally and 80 nm axially over a 10 µm axial range under the conditions of low signal level (6000 photons) with 10 photons/pixel of background noise. We then performed experiments to demonstrate our optimized SIDH system. The results show that point sources emitting as few as 2120 photons can be successfully detected. We further demonstrated that we can successfully reconstruct point-like sources emitting 4200 photons over a 10 µm axial range by light-sheet SIDH.
The contribution of work and health-related lifestyle to educational inequalities in physical health among older workers in Germany. A causal mediation analysis with data from the lidA cohort study
Authors: Rohrbacher Max , Hasselhorn Hans Martin 
Published: August 2023

ObjectivesThe objective of the study was to investigate the contribution of work factors and health-related lifestyle to educational inequalities in physical health among older workers in Germany by applying causal mediation analysis with longitudinal data.MethodsData from the German lidA study was used. 2653 persons (53% female, 47% male) aged 46 (born 1965) and 52 (born 1959) at baseline were followed up for seven years with exposure and outcome assessments in 2011 (t0), 2014 (t1) and 2018 (t2). The total effect of education on physical health was decomposed into a natural direct effect (NDE) and a natural indirect effect (NIE) by using a sex-stratified causal mediation analysis with an inverse odds weighting approach. Baseline health, partner status and working hours were entered as a first set of mediators preceding the putative mediators of interest. All analyses were adjusted for age and migrant status.ResultsIndependent of the first set of mediators, work factors explained 21% of educational inequalities in physical health between low and high educated women and 0% comparing moderate versus high educated women. The addition of health behaviors explained further 26% (low vs. high education) and 20% (moderate vs. high education), respectively. Among men, net of the first set of mediators, work factors explained 5% of educational inequalities in physical health between low and high educated and 6% comparing moderate versus high educated persons. Additional 24% (low vs. high education) and 27% (moderate vs. high education) were explained by adding health behaviors to the models.ConclusionsTo reduce educational inequalities in physical health among older workers in Germany, interventions to promote healthy behaviors are promising. Improving working conditions is likely an important prerequisite.
High circulating endocan in chronic kidney disease? A systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Khalaji Amirmohammad , Behnoush Amir Hossein , Mohtasham Kia Yasmin , Alehossein Parsa , Bahiraie Pegah 
Published: August 2023

Background
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Endothelial dysfunction has been suggested to be involved in the pathophysiology of CKD. Endocan, as an endothelial factor, has been shown to increase in several diseases. The current systematic review and meta-analysis was performed with the aim of determining the association between endocan levels and CKD.

Methods
Four international databases, including PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched for relevant studies. Afterward, screening and extraction of data were performed. We conducted a random-effect meta-analysis to calculate the standardized mean difference (SMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI) to compare circulating endocan levels between patients with CKD (including patients undergoing hemodialysis) and healthy controls. Subgroup analysis based on the specimen in which endocan was measured (serum or plasma) was also performed.

Results
After screening by title/abstract and full-text review by the authors, 20 studies were included. Meta-analysis revealed that serum endocan is higher in CKD patients compared to healthy controls (SMD 1.34, 95% CI 0.20 to 2.48, p-value<0.01). This higher endocan level was also observed in the subgroup of studies that measured plasma endocan while this was not the case for the subgroup of studies assessing serum endocan. Meta-analysis was also performed for comparison of CKD patients without other comorbidities and healthy controls, which resulted in the same conclusion of higher endocan levels in patients with CKD (SMD 0.74, 95% CI 0.52 to 0.95, p-value<0.01). Moreover, endocan was associated with cardiovascular diseases in CKD.

Conclusion
Our study demonstrated that endocan is significantly increased in patients with CKD. This can have clinical implications as well as highlight the need for future research investigating the diagnostic and prognostic role of endocan in CKD.

ABSTRACT

Introduction:
Pancreatitis in inflammatory bowel disease has been attributed to peripancreatic intestinal disease and/or drug-induced pancreatic toxicity. We used large cohort analyses to define inflammatory bowel disease and pancreatitis temporal co-occurrence with a detailed descriptive analysis to gain greater insight into the pathophysiological relationship between these two diseases.

Methods:
Truven Health MarketScan private insurance claims from 141,017,841 patients (<65 years-old) and 7,457,709 patients from four academic hospitals were analyzed. We calculated prevalence of Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis with acute or chronic pancreatitis and performed temporal and descriptive analyses.

Results:
Of 516,724 inflammatory bowel disease patients, 12,109 individuals (2.3%) had pancreatitis. Acute pancreatitis was 2-6x more prevalent than chronic pancreatitis. In adults, acute pancreatitis occurred equally among Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis (1.8-2.2% vs. 1.6-2.1%, respectively), whereas in children, acute pancreatitis was more frequent in ulcerative colitis (2.3-3.4% vs. 1.5-1.8%, respectively). The highest proportion of pancreatitis (21.7-44.7%) was at/near the time of inflammatory bowel disease diagnosis. Of these, 22.1-39.3% were on steroids at the time of pancreatitis. Individuals with chronic pancreatitis or recurrent pancreatitis hospitalizations had increased risk of a future inflammatory bowel disease diagnosis (odds ratio=1.52 or 1.72, respectively).

Conclusions:
Pancreatitis in inflammatory bowel disease may not simply be a drug adverse event but may also involve local and/or systemic processes that negatively impact the pancreas. Our analysis of pancreatitis before, during, and after inflammatory bowel disease diagnosis suggests a bi-directional pathophysiologic relationship between inflammatory bowel disease and pancreatitis, with potentially more complexity than previously appreciated.
Development of an instrument-free and low-cost ELISA dot-blot test to detect antibodies against SARS-CoV-2

Published: August 2023

Abstract
Most laboratory tests to detect the presence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies use enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) or chemiluminescence immunoassays (CLIA); however, equipment for these immunoassays is unavailable in many areas of low- and middle-income countries. Rapid lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) tests are an equipment-free option, but their high price may make them less suitable for conducting seroprevalence surveys. Here, we describe a simple dual antigen ELISA dot-blot test to detect anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies with high sensitivity (94–98%) and specificity (92–100%), compared to commercially available ELISA and CLIA options. Additionally, this ELISA dot-blot test can be completed in one hour using minimal laboratory equipment. Importantly, this immunoassay is significantly more affordable than most LFIA tests available on the global market. The dot-blot strips may be stored for up to 7 days under freezing conditions. This ELISA dot-blot test is a cost-effective option for conducting seroprevalence screenings in areas lacking ELISA or CLIA facilities, compared to LFIA tests.
Comparison of the prognostic value of four different critical illness scores in patients with sepsis-induced coagulopathy
Authors: Wang Chengli , Ma Li , Zhang Wei 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
In patients with sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC), the Chinese DIC scoring system (CDSS) of the Chinese Society of Thrombosis and Hemostasis score, the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine (JAAM) score, the International Society of Thrombosis and Hemostasis (ISTH), and the Can Rapid risk stratification of Unstable angina patients Suppress Adverse outcomes with Early implementation of the ACC/AHA Guidelines (CRUSADE) score were compared for their predictive significance (SIC). From August 2021 through August 2022, 92 SIC patients hospitalized in our hospital’s Department of Critical Care Medicine served as study participants. Groups of patients were created with a bad prognosis (n = 35) and a favorable prognosis (n = 57) 14 days following admission. Electronic medical records were used to compile patient information such as demographics (gender, age, and body mass index), medical history (hypertension, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and chronic kidney disease), treatment (mechanical ventilation, APACHE II score at admission), and outcomes (results). All patients’ JAAM, CDSS, ISTH, and CRUSADE scores were recorded. The APACHE II scores of the group with a poor prognosis were noticeably (p < 0.05) higher upon admission than those of the group with a favorable prognosis. The poor prognosis group had higher JAAM, ISTH, CDSS, and CRUSADE scores than the good prognosis group (all p < 0.05). Partial coagulation indicators in fibrinogen, D-dimer, activated partial thromboplastin time, and prothrombin time were positively linked with JAAM, ISTH, CDSS, and CRUSADE (all p < 0.05). At admission, the JAAM, ISTH, CDSS, CRUSADE, and APACHE II scores were independently linked with SIC patients’ prognosis (all p < 0.05) in a multivariate logistic regression analysis. According to receiver operating characteristic analysis, the area under the curve for predicting the prognosis of SIC patients using the JAAM, ISTH, CDSS, and CRUSADE4 scores was 0.896, 0.870, 0.852, and 0.737, respectively, with 95% CI being 0.840–0.952, 0.805–0.936, 0.783–0.922 and 0.629–0.845, respectively (all p < 0.05). The prognosis of SIC patients may be predicted in part by their JAAM, ISTH, CDSS, and CRUSADE4 scores, with the CDSS score being the most accurate. This research provides important recommendations for improving the care of patients with SIC.
Effect of different tin neodecanoate and calcium–zinc heat stabilizers on the thermal stability of PVC
Authors: Wang Xiang , Di Chao , Wang Tingwei 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
Heat stabilizers are crucial additives for enhancing the thermal stability of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) during processing. Among the various heat stabilizers available, organic tin compounds have shown remarkable effectiveness. In this study, we investigated the use of dimethyltin dineodecanoate (DMTDN), dibutyltin dineodecanoate (DBTDN), and dioctyltin dineodecanoate (DOTDN) as heat stabilizers for PVC. These compounds were combined with calcium stearate (CaSt2) and zinc stearate (ZnSt2) to improve the thermal stability of PVC materials. The results demonstrated that the thermal stabilization effects of the three tin neodecanoates, when used as standalone heat stabilizers, followed the order: DOTDN > DBTDN > DMTDN. Notably, the thermal stability and lubricity of the three-component heat stabilizer (MTN5-C4Z1, BTN5-C4Z1, and OTN5-C4Z1, respectively), which consisted of the three types of tin neodecanoate, CaSt2, and ZnSt2 in a ratio of 5:4:1, outperformed the use of tin neodecanoate alone. This study offered potential formulations to reduce the application cost of tin neodecanoate as a PVC heat stabilizer.
When correct spelling hardly matters: Teenagers’ production and perception of spelling error corrections in Dutch social media writing
Authors: Surkyn Hanne , Sandra Dominiek , Vandekerckhove Reinhild 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
The present paper examines teenagers’ production and perception of spelling error corrections (e. g., *zij for zei) in online messaging. It discusses both a quantitative and qualitative analysis of spelling corrections in a large corpus of private online conversations between Flemish adolescents and the results of an online survey with a similar target group. Our study reveals that teenagers hardly correct their own spelling errors and those of their peers in informal social media writing. Several factors play a role in whether or not they rectify an error, such as the type of error and their socio-demographic profile. In general, adolescents tend to have a negative attitude towards correcting other people’s spelling mistakes. Consequently, teenagers often perform this face-threatening act (FTA) to tease or irritate their interlocutor or by way of payback for another FTA. Strikingly, even in non-conflictual contexts, errors are generally pointed out quite bluntly, though in some cases, both the error-maker and the interlocutor engage in damage control when the error has been acknowledged by the former. By conducting this research, we can achieve a better understanding of the sociopragmatic mechanisms underlying error perception and error handling in a social media context that generally embraces nonstandard writing.
