TÜRKÜLERİN GÖLGESİNDE; KUŞLAR YASINA GİDER ROMANININ POSTMODERN BAĞLAMDA İNCELENMESİ
Authors: DEMİR Bekir 
Published: July 2023

Hasan Ali Toptaş, Türk edebiyatının modern/postmodern çizgideki önemli isimlerdendir. Postmodern roman tekniklerini kendine has dil özellikleri ve anlam evreni ile harmanlayan Toptaş, Kuşlar Yasına Gider romanı ile geleneksel kimliğini de kullanarak çok katmanlı bir metin ortaya koyar. Gerçek ile hayal evreni arasında duygusal yoğunluğu yüksek bir üstkurmaca roman olan Kuşlar Yasına Gider, bir baba/oğul metni içerisinde farklı okumalara imkân tanır. İlgili romanda modern yaşamın yarattığı bireyin duyarsızlığı, hemen her dönem varlığını koruyan kuşak çatışması, değer yitimi, geleneksel-modern yaşam uyuşmazlığı gibi farklı konular yazarın dikkat çekmek istediği alanlar olarak ön plana çıkar. Üstkurmaca metin içerisinde dahil edilen birbirinden farklı konularla çok katmanlı bir özellik kazanan romanda çerçeve katmanın baba-oğul ilişkisi olduğu görülür.
Postmodern anlatım teknikleri kullanılarak bireyin yalnızlığı farklı mekânlarda yansıtılır. Bu mekânlar arasında özellikle anlatıcının kendi ile hesaplaşma, hayatı sorgulama alanına dönüşen 'yol' edebi ve estetik değeri yüksek bir metafor olarak öne çıkarılır. Yolculuk esnasında sıklıkla yer verilen türküler yazarın esere kattığı samimi dil yanında metinlerarasılık yönteminin de yansımalarıdır. Halk anlatıları ve sembollerin de sıkça kullanıldığı roman, okura zamansal bir yolculuk yapma imkanı sunar. Cevapsız sorularla okur merkezli bir yaklaşım sergileyen Kuşlar Yasına Gider, bu yönüyle farklı yorumlamalara da açıktır. Eserin bu yönü aynı zamanda yazarın postyapısalcı yönünün de tezahürüdür. Otobiyografik özellikler gösteren bu eserde yazarın yaşamıyla ilgili ipuçlarını da görmek mümkündür.
Farklı inceleme alanları sunan Hasan Ali Toptaş romanı bu çalışma içerisinde eserin inşasında kullanılan postmodern anlatım teknikleri, simgeler/semboller, halk inanışları, bireyin çatışmaları gibi ana izlek noktaları merkezinde incelenmeye tabi tutulmuştur.

The reflection of top-down tourism approach in the linguistic landscape of a developing tourism village, Cisaat, Indonesia
Authors: Azyyati Nurina 
Published: July 2023

This study explores the linguistic landscape at the Cisaat village and explains the reflection of top-down tourism approach in the linguistic landscape at the Cisaat village. The village is planned to be a leading agritourism and educational tourist village by a state university based in the capital city of Indonesia – Universitas Negeri Jakarta. The plan is formulated with a top-down approach since each plan and move is decided by the actors or authorities on the upper hierarchical level (top) and centralistic. To understand how LL reflects the top-down tourism approach, any signs along the main road in the village were collected and classified according to the language use. Only two languages were found to be significant for this study: Indonesian and Sundanese language. The Indonesian monolingual signs dominated the LL in the area. The anticipated appearance of local language from the mobility of language in periphery and the anticipated multilingualism from the grand plan of Kampung Bahasa by the university does not translate into the LL. The result reflects the top-down tourism approach in the area. The village becomes an area of interesting encounter between centre and periphery, top and bottom, affected by the tourism approach initiated by the university from the capital of Indonesia.

English teachers’ perspectives on the implementation of extensive reading
Authors: Maharani Suci 
Published: July 2023

There needs to be more literature regarding English teachers' perspectives on the actual practice of extensive reading in the classroom in Indonesia. Therefore, a study aimed to investigate the implementation of extensive reading based on the teachers' perspectives. This study employed a qualitative research method as the research design. The participants were two senior high school English teachers and two junior high school English teachers. Interviews were conducted as the data collection and transcribed for the data analysis. The results showed that all English teachers had acknowledged and were well-informed of the benefits of extensive reading. However, half of them projected their positive beliefs through implementing extensive reading in their teaching practice, but the other half did not. The obstacles found in applying extensive reading were the students' need for more interest in reading, their lack of vocabulary mastery, and opposing views toward reading. Therefore, this insight into the study's results has enriched the literature, and the stakeholder of the curriculum should provide support regarding the teachers' concern about implementing extensive reading.

Authors: Góngora Vanesa C. 
Published: July 2023

El objetivo de esta investigación es analizar la relación entre distintos tipos de actividades realizadas en redes sociales y la insatisfacción corporal, la internalización de los ideales de belleza y la apreciación corporal en mujeres adultas de la región metropolitana de Buenos Aires. La muestra se constituyó por 121 mujeres de 18 a 65 años (M = 36.59, DE = 12.59). Se utilizó una encuesta sobre redes sociales, el Inventario EDI-2 de Conductas Alimentarias, el Cuestionario SATAQ-3 sobre ideales de belleza y la escala BAS-2 de Apreciación Corporal. Se empleó un diseño de tipo transversal. Se calcularon correlaciones de Pearson que indicaron que una mayor frecuencia de actividades en redes sociales tenía una asociación positiva con la insatisfacción corporal y la internalización de los ideales de belleza y negativa con la apreciación corporal. Publicar actualizaciones de estado transitorias y chequear para ver que están haciendo sus contactos resultaron ser las actividades más vinculadas con aspectos negativos de la imagen corporal. Se empleó el Macro Process para efectuar análisis de mediación y moderación. Los resultados indicaron que dentro de las actividades realizadas en redes sociales, la actualización de estados transitorios no tenía un efecto directo en la insatisfacción corporal, pero había un efecto significativo indirecto a través del papel mediador de la apreciación corporal. La edad no resultó moderadora de esta mediación. La apreciación corporal mostró ser una variable protectora de la insatisfacción con la imagen corporal frente a ciertas actividades en redes sociales en mujeres adultas.

Design thinking-learning and lifelong learning for employability in the 21st century
Authors: Seevaratnam Vijayakumari , Gannaway Deanne , Lodge Jason 
Published: July 2023

Surviving and thriving in this 21st century volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) world caused by rapid digitalisation and changing work landscape, requires agile organisations with agile employees who are adaptable, resilient, and actively engaged in lifelong learning. A blended workforce encompassing full-time and 'gig' employees, working in tandem with smart machines, calls for an innovative and collaborative workforce capable of critical thinking and creative problem solving. This paper aims to highlight the potential of design thinking approaches to foster lifelong learning and graduate employability in a VUCA environment. The paper outlines an empirical study investigating the multiple benefits of incorporating design thinking process attributes in higher education. It argues that such processes can result in the development of 21st century skills and mindset and graduate capability themes that promote lifelong learning skills. Incorporating such strategies offers the potential to narrow the competency gap between workforce and work and enhance the employability and career development of graduates. The paper offers a Framework for Lifelong Learning in a VUCA environment that outlines the powerful traits that arise as payoffs from engaging in and practising design thinking. This framework can serve as a preliminary guide for higher education educators, learning organisations and individuals to inculcate and enhance lifelong learning
Quick response auto-coding and recognition via microlaser array

Published: July 2023

Abstract
The superior stimuli-responsiveness, narrow linewidth, and high spectral multiplexing capacity of microlasers have led to their use as photonic tags for molecular labeling, encryption, and anticounterfeiting. However, the requirement of consistent lasing features for repeated measurements and the need for lasing features to change regularly with varying analytes pose a challenge to the efficient and convenient authentication of laser-encoded photonic tags for practical applications. To address this challenge, we propose an optical microsphere array that provides a set of real-time typical lasing spectra collected from microspheres coated with specific recognition surface films of different sizes capable of recognizing one analyte or a mixture of analytes. These lasing spectra were transformed into 2D grayscale barcodes. Additionally, we developed a gray value-quick response code (GV-QR code) using deep learning methods, which enabled the real-time monitoring and identification of molecular concentration changes through GV-QR autocoding, resulting in more precise, wide-ranging, and reliable molecular detection.
Synthesis of N alkyl chitosan and their impact on biology and physiology of fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda
Authors: V Moorthy A , M Shanthi , S Selva Rani 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
A chitosan derivative, N-alkyl chitosan, was synthesized from crude chitosan, a marine waste product, by an alkylation process and it was characterized in FTIR and standardized its solubility, degree of deacetylation, and water binding capacity. It was evaluated for its toxicity, antifeedant effect, and impact on the growth, development, and physiology of S. frugiperda at different concentrations. N alkyl chitosan 5000 ppm recorded a maximum absolute antifeedant index of 85.96 percent in first instar larvae, after 72 hours of treatment. The highest mortality (Abbott’s corrected) was recorded when fed on N alky chitosan at 5000 ppm (77.44%). The median lethal concentration of N alkyl chitosan derivative was 3702.18 ppm with a median lethal time of 32.28 hours. The larval weight was reduced by 47.56 and 40.97 percent over the untreated check when S. frugiperda larvae fed on leaf treated with N alkyl chitosan at 5000 and 4000 ppm, respectively, throughout the larval period and also showed significant weight loss in pupal (15.83%) and adult (16.66%) stages, over the untreated check.

Abstract
Background
Colorectal cancer (CRC), the most common primary tumor in the gastrointestinal system, is a leading cause of death due to cancer worldwide. CRC is a heterogeneous disease that is associated with several genetic or somatic mutations. Cancer immunotherapy has become a novel and revolutionary method of treatment for patients with advanced tumors. However, effective biomarkers that can reflect the response of CRC patients to immunotherapy have still not been identified. In this study, we aimed to assess the clinical predictive value of KCNC3 in patients with CRC.
Methods
The correlation between KCNC3 expression levels and CRC progression was explored and validated using data from TCGA and patient samples from our hospital. Univariate and multivariate cox regression models were developed to determine the predictive value of KCNC3 on the prognosis of patients with CRC. Thereafter, the relationship between KCNC3 and immune activation was then analyzed. Finally, we predicted the immunotherapy response in both the high and low KCNC3 expression subgroups.
Results
In this study, patients with high expression of KCNC3 showed shorter OS (overall survival) than patients with low KCNC3 expression. Data from TCGA database and clinical patient parameters showed that high KCNC3 expression was associated with tumor immune infiltration and poor prognosis of CRC. Furthermore, we found that KCNC3 could be used to stratify CRC patients into high and low KCNC3 expression subgroups, which exhibit different clinical outcomes and immune activation status. At the RNA level data from TCGA showed that KCNC3 expression was positively correlated with the infiltration levels of CD4 + cells, Tregs, and MDSC, which contributed to the formation of an immunosuppressive immune microenvironment (TME) for effective cancer immunotherapy. In addition, the high expression of KCNC3 was accompanied by the upregulation of immune checkpoint molecules, including PDCD1, LAG3, FOXP3, and CTLA4, which stimulated tumor cells to evade immune surveillance. Our clinical data also suggest that high KCNC3 expression is closely associated with CTLA4 and LAG3. Finally, we demonstrated that CRC patients with a high KCNC3 expression level had better immunotherapy responses.
Conclusions
This study demonstrated that the high expression of KCNC3 confers with immunosuppressive microenvironment that can promote tumor progression and can be used to predict the poor clinical outcome of CRC patients. In conclusion, KCNC3 is a novel predictor for clinical prognosis and response to immunotherapy in CRC.
Quasi-crystalline order in vibrated granular matter

Published: July 2023

Abstract
Quasi-crystals are aperiodic structures that present crystallographic properties which are not compatible with that of a single unit cell. Their revolutionary discovery in a metallic alloy, less than three decades ago, has required a full reconsideration of what we defined as a crystal structure. Surprisingly, quasi-crystalline structures have been discovered also at much larger length scales in different microscopic systems for which the size of elementary building blocks ranges between the nanometric to the micrometric scale. Here, we report the first experimental observation of spontaneous quasi-crystal self-assembly at the millimetric scale. This result is obtained in a fully athermal system of macroscopic spherical grains vibrated on a substrate. Starting from a liquid-like disordered phase, the grains begin to locally arrange into three types of squared and triangular tiles that eventually align, forming 8-fold symmetric quasi-crystal that has been predicted in simulation but not yet observed experimentally in non-atomic systems. These results are not only the proof of a novel route to spontaneously assemble quasi-crystals but are of fundamental interest for the connection between equilibrium and non-equilibrium statistical physics.

Abstract
This study aimed to analyze the risk factors for ISR within 2 years after iliac or femoral artery stent placement.Clinical data of 237 patients diagnosed with LEASO and receiving iliac or femoral artery stent placement for the first time in the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2015 to December 2022 were analyzed.Patients were randomized into training and validation set (7:3).Logistic regression was used to perform univariate and multivariate analysis on the possible factors of ISR, screen out independent risk factors, establish a risk nomogram prediction model ,and internally verify the predictability and accuracy of the model.Binary logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hyperfibrinogenemia and below-the-knee run-offs were independent risk factors for ISR within 2 years after iliac or femoral artery stent placement in patients with LEASO.Based on these factors, the risk prediction model is established. The c index of the model was 0.856. The results showed that the risk prediction model has good accuracy in predicting ISR within 2 years after iliac or femoral artery stent placement.The risk prediction model based on the 4 risk factors of diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hyperfibrinogenemia and below-the-knee run-offs has good predictive performance.

Abstract
A large number of countries worldwide depend on the agriculture, as agriculture can assist in reducing poverty, raising the country’s income, and improving the food security. However, the plan diseases usually affect food crops and hence play a significant role in the annual yield and economic losses in the agricultural sector. In general, plant diseases have historically been identified by humans using their eyes, where this approach is often inexact, time-consuming, and exhausting. Recently, the employment of machine learning and deep learning approaches have significantly improved the classification and recognition accuracy for several applications. Despite the CNN models offer high accuracy for plant disease detection and classification, however, the limited available data for training the CNN model affects seriously the classification accuracy. Therefore, in this paper, we employed a Cycle Generative Adversarial Network (CycleGAN) to overcome the limitations of over-fitting and the limited size of the available datasets. In addition, we developed an efficient plant disease classification approach, where we adopt the CycleGAN architecture in order to enhance the classification accuracy. The obtained results showed an average enhancement of 7% in the classification accuracy.
