The reanalysis of /ɡ/ as a verb class marker: An exaptation case within the Catalan 2nd conjugation
Authors: Badal Manuel 
Published: August 2023

AbstractIn Old Catalan, some verbs like beure ‘to drink’ display a velar consonant in the forms that come from Latin perfectum, such as 3sg.prt *ˈbibwit > bec [ˈbek] ‘s/he drank’. This velar was initially a perfect marker. However, the consonant spread analogically from perfective to imperfective forms through an exaptation process. In the present paper, we compare two different verb classes, and prove that the existence of syncretism between the first and third persons of the present indicative (1sg.prs.ind beu [ˈbew] ‘I drink’ vs. 3sg.prs.ind beu [ˈbew] ‘s/he drinks’) is a factor that accelerates the analogical process of velarization.
Interstitials in compositionally complex alloys

AbstractThe effects of interstitial alloying on the mechanical and diffusive properties of compositionally complex alloys (CCAs), including high-entropy alloys (HEAs), are reviewed. The solubility of interstitial elements in CCAs can be extraordinarily high, a feature corroborated by ab initio density functional theory simulations. The yield stresses, work-hardening rates, and Hall–Petch slopes of CCAs are normally reported to increase due to interstitial alloying. In some CCAs, interstitial alloying has been found to enhance both strength and ductility, thus circumventing the traditional tradeoff between these properties. Self-diffusivities of the HEA CoCrFeMnNi are found to show complex dependences on interstitial C concentration as well as on temperature. Some CCAs with Laves phase or body-centered cubic crystal structures show potential as hydrogen-storage materials, with both experimental and computational research in this area steadily increasing. Based on the insights obtained, possible directions for further studies on the impacts of interstitial alloying in CCAs are suggested.

Published: August 2023

La gran masificación del uso del plástico es actualmente una de las problemáticas medioambientales más preocupantes y ante ello, es necesario meditar y actuar. El presente artículo reflexiona sobre la omnipresencia del plástico y propone desde la educación artística y con alumnado de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación de la Universidad de Granada, una estrategia desde el grabado -la sobre estampación- para interpretar la saturación del material y su constante presencia en el medioambiente y en nuestro cuerpo. El objetivo principal de la propuesta educativa es analizar las propiedades estéticas del plástico para conferir al material la capacidad de estampar y producir imágenes artísticas relacionadas con esta problemática. Las imágenes obtenidas son analizadas mediante instrumentos desprendidos de las metodologías basadas en artes, que permiten entender el proceso de creación del alumnado desde lo visual y lo sensible, estableciendo un diálogo con otras disciplinas como el video mapping para generar una pieza colaborativa.
La pintura expandida como paradigma y experiencia en la enseñanza superior de las artes
Authors: Ortega Solano Julio César 
Published: August 2023

Desde la irrupción de las nuevas tecnologías digitales como fenómeno global y con la aparición de nuevos materiales de síntesis industrial, el campo de la pintura ha venido experimentando un cambio de paradigma en su práctica artística.
Este cambio se centra en el efecto, que ha pasado de la realidad de la naturaleza a la nueva realidad virtual digital. Si entendemos la práctica pictórica desde la realidad de la naturaleza como un simulacro de la realidad, la práctica pictórica desde la realidad virtual digital, ya no simula, sino que presenta una nueva realidad en la pintura.
Es un hecho, que el entorno digital produce cambios notables en las conductas sociales, en consecuencia y como reflejo de la sociedad, estas no pasan desapercibidas dentro de la practica pictórica en la enseñanza superior de la artes.
En este sentido, y como referente, tenemos las obras pictóricas Peter Halley y Fabián Marcaccio, estas obras son un claro ejemplo de unas prácticas pictóricas creadas a partir de esta nueva realidad digital. En el caso de Halley, desde una visión conceptual del fenómeno digital y su influencia social y, en el caso de Marcaccio, a partir de la utilización del software y el hardware digital para la creación pictórica.
Conceptos y métodos en la aplicación práctica de nuevos sistemas para la creación de una pintura referenciada del entorno digital, que nos sitúa ante lo que en la actualidad viene denominando como pintura expandida. Una pintura que en muchos casos se libera de soporte para desarrollarse en sí misma.
"My Mother is My Homeland": Subversive Representations of the Black Puerto Rican Matriarch in Mayra Santos-Febres’ Our Lady of the Night/ Nuestra Señora de la noche (2006) and Amina Gautier's Now We Will Be Happy (2014)
Authors: McCauley Jennifer Maritza 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
In this scholarly essay, I explore how Mayra Santos-Febres and Amina Gautier create subversive representations of Black Puerto Rican women in their texts, and how both writers expand the representation of the Black matriarch and nationhood. I also argue that both writers evoke problematic Black motherhood tropes to dismantle them. Mayra Santos Febres fictionalizes Isabel Luberza or "Isabel La Negra" to create a new, complicated mother of Puerto Rico who eschews stereotypes and has agency and self-possession. Santos-Febres thus reclaims the stories of obscured Black Caribbean women like Isabel La Negra as her own and creates new national narratives. Gautier uses absent Black American mothers married to Puerto Rican men to show the necessity of Black women in American and Caribbean spaces. Gautier explores the ramifications of the loss of the Black mother on the Puerto Rican family, and the myth of a true Puerto Rican motherland. I also argue that writing about the erasure of Black women as a Black woman is a kind of subversive act itself, as the Black woman's narrative stands in as a societal mirror. Both writers show how these complex "fictional mothers" can serve as "fictive kin" to Black women searching for radical sites of home.

Aim. To evaluate clinical, anamnestic and laboratory data and the incidence rate of complications in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) without obstructive coronary artery (CA) disease.Material and methods. This study included 158 patients with MI without obstructive CA disease (main group), 150 patients with MI and obstructive CA disease (comparison group), and 55 patients without documented ischemic heart disease (IHD) (control group). Clinical and anamnestic data, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, concentrations of high-sensitivity troponin and C-reactive protein (CRP) were evaluated, and electrocardiography, Holter electrocardiogram monitoring, echocardiography, and coronary angiography were performed for all patients.Results. The incidence rate of MI without obstructive CA disease was 1.9%, which was in general consistent with international data. Patients with MI without obstructive CA disease were somewhat younger than patients of the comparison group. Traditional risk factors, such as arterial hypertension (AH), acute cerebrovascular disease, diabetes mellitus (DM), and obesity were more frequently observed in patients with MI and obstructive CA disease, but the body weight index was significantly higher in MI patients without obstructive CA disease. The multivariate regression analysis identified the most significant factors associated with the development of MI in the group without obstructive CA disease: lipid metabolism disorders, AH, DM, male gender, smoking, and family history of IHD. Patients with MI without obstructive CA disease had a lower troponin level but a higher CRP level. Patients with MI without obstructive CA disease had a higher left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF); acute heart failure (AHF), acute LV aneurism, and arrhythmias were the most frequent complication in this group.Conclusion. Patients with MI without obstructive CA disease had a higher LV EF, and their most frequent complications were AHF, acute LV aneurism, and arrhythmias.

Published: August 2023

Aim. To study the effect of epicardial adipose tissue on risk of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction (DD) in patients with visceral obesity.Material and methods. Obesity leads to the development of LV DD and is a major cause of heart failure with preserved LV ejection fraction (HFpEF). However, the contribution of epicardial adipose tissue to DD is understudied. This study included 101 men with general obesity (body weight index, 32.9±3.6 kg /m2). Based on severity of epicardial obesity (EO), two groups were formed: group 1, patients with an epicardial adipose tissue thickness (EATt) >7 mm (n=70), and group 2, patients with EATt <7 mm (n=31). Arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, coronary atherosclerosis, and disorders of LV diastolic function according to echocardiography (EchoCG) were the exclusion criteria. Diastolic function and LV mechanics were evaluated by speckle-tracking EchoCG for all patients at the start of the study and again at 4.7±0.3 years.Results. At baseline, none of the patients of either group had significant differences in EchoCG characteristics of LV diastolic function (left atrial volume index, LV early diastolic longitudinal lengthening velocity, peak tricuspid regurgitation velocity, and the ratio of diastolic transmitral flow velocity to mean mitral annular velocity (E / e′). However, there were significant increases in the LV untwisting velocity to –122.11 [–142.0; –116.0 degrees /s –1] degrees/s and the time to LV peak untwisting velocity to 472.3 ms. Repeated EchoCG showed an increase in left atrial volume index in group 1 to 35.04 [33.0; 39.7] ml /m2. Repeated evaluation of the LV mechanics revealed increases in the times to LV peak untwisting and twisting and decreases in the LV twisting and untwisting velocities. The logistic regression analysis showed that EATt was a risk factor for LV DD in obesity. Furthermore, the ROC analysis determined the optimal EATt cut-off threshold of ≥9 mm as a predictor for LV DD development.Conclusion. EO facilitates the development of LV DD and, thus, represents a major cause for HFpEF. An EATt value of ≥9 mm can be considered as a risk factor for LV DD development in patients with EO.

Authors: Trunov Konstantin S. 
Published: August 2023

Introduction: Currently, there are no safe and ideal medicines for the prevention and treatment of oophorectomy-induced osteoporosis. The development of an effective pharmacotherapy for hypoestrogen-induced osteoporosis is an important task of pharmacology.
Materials and Methods: A new supramolecular complex (composition №1) was obtained on the basis of 3-hydroxypyridine derivatives: 2-ethyl-6-methyl-3-hydroxypyridinium 3-pyridinocarbonoate and 2-ethyl-6-methyl-3-hydroxypyridinium N-acetyl-6-aminohexanoate in a ratio of 1:3 by topochemical synthesis. The study of the osteoprotective activity of the supramolecular complex at a dose of 50 mg/kg was performed on 60 white female rats of the Wistar line on a model of hypoestrogen-induced osteoporosis. The effectiveness of the osteoprotective activity of the complex was evaluated on the 57th day of the experiment.
Results and Discussion: The new supramolecular complex (composition №1) has osteoprotective activity, which is expressed in improving the indicators of X-ray and histomorphological samples. Oral administration of composition №1 at a dose of 50 mg/kg led to an increase in bone density to values of 2.55±0.02 g/cm3, which is 1.3 times higher than in the control group 1.92±0.01 g/cm3 (p≤0.05) and reduce bone resorption by improving cortical and trabecular bone structures.
Conclusion: The obtained data characterize the prospects of studying composition №1 for the correction and prevention of hypoestrogen-induced osteoporosis.

Published: August 2023

Pasar tradisional merupakan pusat kegiatan perekonomian yang sangat penting dalam mendukung aktivitas kota. Selama pandemi Covid-19, pemerintah menerapkan kebijakan kesehatan untuk mencegah penularan virus, seperti pembatasan aktivitas dan pergerakan terutama pergerakan penduduk dari luar kota yang menyebabkan penurunan jumlah pengunjung pasar tradisional. Adanya perkembangan teknologi dapat dimanfaatkan pedagang untuk memasarkan barang dagangannya karena mempermudah pembeli melakukan transaksi tanpa harus datang langsung ke pasar yang mendorong perubahan lingkup pelayanan pasar tradisional. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami bagaimana pengaruh pandemi Covid-19 terhadap perubahan lingkup pelayanan pasar tradisional di Kota Surakarta dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif. Data dikumpulkan dengan observasi dan wawancara, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan teknik analisis interaktif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pandemi mengubah level jangkauan pelayanan pada pasar dengan lingkup internasional menjadi lingkup nasional karena pembatasan perjalanan selama pandemi. Pandemi juga menyebabkan perubahan saluran distribusi barang dari pedagang di pasar tradisional ke pembeli. Sebelum masa pandemi, pembeli dari lingkup lokal hingga lingkup internasional dapat bebas datang ke pasar tradisional untuk membeli barang secara langsung. Karena kebijakan kesehatan seperti pembatasan aktivitas dan pergerakan, pembeli yang berada di luar lingkup regional membeli barang menggunakan platform online dan menggunakan saluran distribusi tidak langsung.
Assembly and optimization of an infared quantitative phase-contrast microscope for semiconductor inspection
Authors: Rossillion Guillaume , Grojo David 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
Laser-induced permanent modification inside silicon has been demonstrated by using tightly focused short pulses in the infared domain of the sepctrum, and has a broad field of applications. These include the fabrication of devices in Silicon Photonics with for instance the writing of monolytic waveguides by changing the local refractive index with silicon modifications. In order to characterize very precisely and quantitatively the accessible refractive index variations, we designed and assembled a microscope associated with an interferometer to apply the so-called phase-shifting measurement method with an infared wavelength. An interferometer close to a Mach-Zenhder configuration is first set. An arrangement of imaging lenses are then installed to operate the interferometer while imaging samples in transmission mode. The sample is placed on the way of one arm of the interferometer, meanwhile the second one is the reference path. The presence of modifications induces an optical path difference relative to the surrounding non-modified zone which can be quantitatively measured.

Abstract

Objective To investigate the safe ultimate antedisplacemental distance of the thoracic vertebrae in the new surgical technique of thoracic column antedisplacement and fixation (TCAF) in living goat model.
Methods A total of ten healthy goats were obtained, the T12, T13 and L1 were selected as the antedispalcemental vertebrae while T10, T11, L2 and L3 were chosen as fixed vertebrae. The X-ray was taken before surgery to measure the anteroposterior diameter of spinal canal and the width of the vertebrae of T12, T13 and L1. The TCAF was performed by using pedicle screw system to antedisplacethe vertebrae according to the adjustment of the length of the reserved thread under the somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP) monitoring. The SSEP measured after the T11/12 and L1/2 discs were resected was set as the baseline, and the SSEP decreased by 50% from the baseline amplitude and/or delayed by 10% relative to the baseline peak latency were set as positive results, which indicated spinal cord injury (SCI). The vertebrae were gradually antedisplaced until the SSEP monitoring just did not show a positive result, then the length of the reserved thread (T12, T13 and L1) were recorded, and the antedisplacemental distance measured by postoperative imaging was regard as the ultimate distance. Exploring whether there was a correlation and linear relationship between the ultimate antedisplacemental distance and the related parameters of the vertebrae. Hindlimb function was evaluated by the Tarlov scores on day 2 postoperatively.
Results The ultimate antedisplacemental distance for TCAF was 8.0±0.2mm, and Pearson correlation test showed that there was a good correlation with the average anteroposterior diameter of spinal canal of the antedisplacemental segment and the average width of the vertebrae of the antedisplacemental segment. Linear regression analysis showed that there was a linear relationship between the ultimate antedisplacemental distance (Y) and the average anteroposterior diameter of spinal canal of the antedisplacemental segment (X)and the linear equation was Y=-7.769+1.648X.
Conclusions In goat animal experiment, the ultimate antedisplacement distance for TCAF was 8.0 ± 0.2mm and there was a linear relationship between the ultimate antedisplacemental distance and the average anteroposterior diameter of spinal canal of the antedisplacemental segment. When the current displacement distance is less than this value, it will not cause spinal cord injury, that is, intraoperative real-time SSEP has no positive results. Thus, TCAF is a safe operation method.
Selective bioorthogonal probe for N-glycan hybrid structures

Abstract

Metabolic incorporation of chemically tagged monosaccharides is a facile means of labelling cellular glycoprotein and glycolipids. Yet, since the monosaccharide precursors are often shared by several pathways, selectivity has been difficult to attain. For example, N-linked glycosylation is a chemically complex, and ubiquitous post translational modification with three distinct classes of GlcNAc-containing N-glycan structures: oligomannose, hybrid, and complex. Here we describe synthesis of 1,3-Pr2-6-OTs GlcNAlk as a next generation metabolic chemical reporter (MCR) for the specific labeling of hybrid N-glycan structures. We first developed a general strategy for defining the selectivity of labelling with chemically tagged monosaccharides. We then applied this approach to establish that 1,3-Pr2-6-OTs GlcNAlk is specifically incorporated into hybrid N-glycans. Using this MCR as a detection tool, we carried out imaging experiments to define the intracellular localization and trafficking of target proteins bearing hybrid N-glycan structures.
Klippel–Trénaunay syndrome with profound abdominal lymphangiohemangioma in a three-day- old newborn: A case report and literature review
Authors: Wei Shih Yang , Liu Yu Peng , Lin Dao Chen , Tsai Pei Shan 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
Background: The congenital limb-length-discrepancy disorders, such as Parkes Weber syndrome and Klippel–Trénaunay syndrome are commonly associated with a variety of vascular anomalies.Case presentation: We present the case of a three-day-old newborn with a profound abdominal mass lesion during prenatal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)examination. After delivery, physical examination revealed mild hemihypertrophy of the left lower extremity and red spots on the left thigh. MRI of the abdomen showed a cyst-like lesion measuring 6.3 × 2.7 × 5.5 cm in the upper abdomen. Within the mass, there were also some possible calcified spots exhibiting high T1WI signals and low T2WI signals. A computed tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen was consistent with an ill-defined cystic tumor with small calcifications and encasement of mesenteric vessels. A MRI of the left lower extremity showed a tubular structure with a signal void and homogeneous strong enhancement located in the anterior subcutis of the left lower limb. The CT scan confirmed that the tubular structure was consistent with a venous malformation. This patient had features of Klippel–Trénaunay syndrome, including port-wine stains, a profound abdominal mass, and vascular malformations of the left lower extremity.Conclusions: Early distinction between Klippel–Trénaunay syndrome and Parkes Weber syndrome was essential based on the identification of significant hemodynamic arteriovenous fistulas. The rare presence of an abdominal lymphangiohemangioma served as an important clue for early diagnosis of Klippel–Trénaunay syndrome.

Abstract

Background
In traditional surgical educational settings multiple trainees share a cadaver, often due to logistical and fiscal limitations precluding routine one-to-one trainee to cadaver ratios. Thus, some procedures are learned via observation of a fellow trainee performance rather than hands on performance. Cadaveric training opportunities are rarer for those practicing in low resource environments such as rural communities yielding training inequity and in military combat zones. This pilot study assessed feasibility of virtual reality surgical educational training (VR-SET) in open trauma surgery procedures compared to in person cadaver-based training (CBT).
Methods
Medical students (4th year, n = 10) who completed VR-SET training were compared to a control group (residents, n = 22) who completed an in-person Advanced Surgical Skills for Exposure in Trauma (ASSET) course. Participants were evaluated on performance of a lower extremity fasciotomy on a cadaver.
Results
VR-SET study participants decompressed an average of 2.45 ± 1.09 (range 1 to 4) compartments compared to the control group decompressed had an average of 2.06 ± 0.93 (range 0.5 to 4), statistically indistinguishable between the groups (p = 0.35). Numerical scores for anatomic knowledge, surgical management, and procedure performance were also not significantly different between groups. Control subjects had significantly higher pathophysiology knowledge and surgical technique scores.
Conclusions
Overall, VR-SET participants were indistinguishable from the in-person CBT cohort in number of compartments successfully decompressed. This pilot study suggests utilization of VR technologies in trauma educational settings may be effective and considered as a cost-effective solution for training to supplement cadaveric based courses.
