Pre-objective reality and the end of the world
Authors: Baker Baranna 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
In Hard-Boiled Wonderland and The End of the World, Haruki Murakami plays with the quantum idea of the Many Worlds theory, creating two universes that exist in a state of parallelism – one consisting of the main character’s objective/subjective reality, the other being a pre-objective reality that resides within the character’s inaccessible subconscious mind. These universes are linked within the purely objective, surreal world of the novel by a series of indexical signs and symbols that point the reader back and forth between the worlds, indicating that they are linked by certain shared subjectivities. What follows here is an exploration of how Murakami’s novel works from a semiotic point of view.
An Alternative Approach to Frequency of Patent Technology Codes: The Case of Renewable Energy Generation
Authors: Terrazas-Santamaria Diana , Mendoza-Palacios Saul , Berasaluce-Iza Julen 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
This article proposes a methodology to identify technological transitions (TTs) by systematically using the total variation distance (TVD) metric. We use a database of renewable energy generation (REG) patents to exemplify the usefulness of TVD to uncover moments where a “big change” in REG technology happened. To do this, we compare the observed frequency distribution of technology codes of REG patents filed between 1973 and 2015 in the US, spread across seven categories (e.g., wind and tidal). We identify two crucial TTs, one at the beginning of the 1980s and another in the late 1990s and early 2000s. In this manner, we reconcile qualitative evidence that registers major REG changes with a quantitative measure that reflects them. Policy evaluations or causality analyses often rely on identifying TTs accurately; therefore, this approach is not constrained to the REG technology or TTs but helps reveal such transition moments in a database whose characteristics are suitable for the use of TVD.
Family language policy in Swedish-English families: Rhizomatic conceptualisations
Authors: Roberts Tim 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Although past research has established that family language policies are composed of numerous complex, entangled, heterogenous elements, as of yet, most works grounded within this research paradigm do not attempt to fully embrace this complexity. This article argues that the complexity can be more fully engaged with by conceptualising a family language policy as a rhizomatic system which consists of a multiplicity of temporary assemblages. Drawing on video recordings, interviews, and stimulated recall protocols from a project on the dimensions of language in Swedish-English families, this article aims to consider how interactional episodes within these families can be viewed as an assemblage of material elements, experiences, agential forces, and conceptual discourses. It is argued that through the analysis of multiple assemblages, and through the consideration of the connectivity between such assemblages, that a holistic picture of the rhizomatic structure that is a family language policy begins to be built.
Language contact between Italian and English: a case study on nouns ending in the suffix -ing
Authors: Meinschaefer Judith 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
The article deals with how English deverbal nouns with the suffix -ing have been imported into Italian. The focus is on the semantic characteristics of these borrowed nouns in Italian and, in particular, on the question of whether they have been borrowed not as simple sign-concept pairings but with argument and event structure. In previous research, it has been claimed that argument and event structure need to be licensed by some overt functional element. Hence, borrowed deverbal nouns should have argument structure and event structure only if they have an overt affix, in other words, only if the forms are not borrowed holistically as unsegmented words but retain internal morphological structure, implying that morphological borrowing of the affix has occurred. When a foreign affix combines with native bases of the recipient language, this is often considered an important criterion for morphological borrowing, which is clearly not the case for the suffix -ing in Italian. Here, it will be shown that contrary to expectation, numerous occurrences with argument and event structure may be found in a large Italian web corpus for a sample of English deverbal nouns ending in -ing, borrowed into (certain registers) of Italian.
Tailored thermal emission in bulk calcite through optic axis reorientation
Authors: Diaz-Granados Katja , Ma Weiliang , Lu Guanyu , Matson Joseph , Li Peining , Caldwell Joshua D. 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
The polar nature of calcite results in lattice vibrations that can be stimulated through gratings and nanostructures to design spatially and spectrally coherent thermal radiation patterns. In order to obtain optimal design control over such patterned materials, it is first necessary to understand the fundamental emissivity properties of the lattice vibrations themselves. Because calcite is a uniaxial material, when the optic axis (OA) is tilted with respect to the crystal surface, the surface wave solutions to Maxwell’s equations and vibrational modes that are permitted will change due to the crystal’s structural anisotropy. This implies that the OA orientation can play a critical role in dictating which modes can be harnessed when designing a narrowband or angular thermal emitter. Here we explore the angle and polarization dependence of the bulk far-field emissivity of unpatterned calcite with tilted OA. We show that by manipulating the OA orientation via crystallographic off-cut, polarization, and sample rotation, the emissivity at a given frequency can vary by as much as 0.8. These results suggest that, in addition to serving as a basis for modifying the behavior of the relevant phonon polaritons, OA orientation can be used to alter the thermal emission pattern without the need for complex lithographic patterning.

Published: May 2023

Abstract
The current study describes the chemical identification, antimicrobial, and mosquito larvicidal activities of essential oils from Meistera caudata and Conamomum vietnamense, growing in Vietnam. Essential oils were extracted from the leaves and rhizomes, and characterized by the GC-FID/MS (gas chromatography-flame ionization detection/mass spectrometry) analysis. Monoterpenes (33.1–89.2 %) were the main chemical class found in these oils. β-Pinene (30.8 %) and α-pinene (23.8 %) were two major compounds in M. caudata leaf oil. C. vietnamense leaf and rhizome essential oils were dominated by 1,8-cineole (47.9–62.0 %) and limonene (10.3–16.2 %). With the same MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) value of 25 μg/mL, C. vietnamense leaf and rhizome essential oils strongly inhibited the growth of Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 and Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6501, respectively. For 24 and 48-h treatments, C. vietnamense leaf essential oil strongly controlled the growth of mosquito Aedes aegypti with the respective LC50 values of 7.67 and 6.73 μg/mL, and the respective LC90 values of 13.37 and 10.83 μg/mL. In the same manner, C. vietnamense rhizome essential oil also showed strong mosquito larvicidal activity against Aedes albopictus with the LC50 values of 12.37 and 12.00 μg/mL, and the LC90 values of 20.56 and 18.58 μg/mL, respectively. C. vietnamense essential essential oils containing a high amount of 1,8-cineole are generally better than M. caudata essential essential oils in both two biological assays.

AbstractTo maintain both mitochondrial quality and quantity, cells selectively remove damaged or excessive mitochondria through mitophagy, which is a specialised form of autophagy. Mitophagy is induced in response to diverse conditions, including hypoxia, cellular differentiation and mitochondrial damage. However, the mechanisms that govern the removal of specific dysfunctional mitochondria under steady‐state conditions to fine‐tune mitochondrial content are not well understood. Here, we report that SCFFBXL4, an SKP1/CUL1/F‐box protein ubiquitin ligase complex, localises to the mitochondrial outer membrane in unstressed cells and mediates the constitutive ubiquitylation and degradation of the mitophagy receptors NIX and BNIP3 to suppress basal levels of mitophagy. We demonstrate that the pathogenic variants of FBXL4 that cause encephalopathic mtDNA depletion syndrome (MTDPS13) do not efficiently interact with the core SCF ubiquitin ligase machinery or mediate the degradation of NIX and BNIP3. Thus, we reveal a molecular mechanism whereby FBXL4 actively suppresses mitophagy by preventing NIX and BNIP3 accumulation. We propose that the dysregulation of NIX and BNIP3 turnover causes excessive basal mitophagy in FBXL4‐associated mtDNA depletion syndrome.
Something new under the sun: caspases promote cell survival under moderate heat stress
Authors: Suthar Komal Panchal , Bergmann Andreas 
Published: May 2023

Since the discovery of caspases in 1993 (Yuan et al, 1993), they have largely been regarded as essential Cys proteases in apoptosis. However, more recently, it has become evident that caspases also have non‐apoptotic functions in the so‐called caspase‐dependent non‐lethal processes (CDPs) including cell proliferation and cell differentiation (Aram et al, 2017). While most of the non‐apoptotic functions were characterized under normal developmental conditions, a new study by Galasso et al took this examination a step further—to the analysis of moderate stress conditions. The authors now report that caspases have a non‐apoptotic prosurvival function in Drosophila ovarian somatic cells exposed to moderate heat stress by controlling Hedgehog signaling and autophagy (Galasso et al, 2023).

Authors: Рачинський Анатолій 
Published: May 2023

In the article, the author reveals important aspects of the modern paradigm of the development of public administration, which requires new approaches to solving the problems of professionalization of the public service. The author attaches great importance to the issue of effective career development management of civil servants. After all, for modern Ukraine, which is under martial law as a result of Russia's large-scale war on the territory of Ukraine, this problem takes on special importance in the perspective of obtaining the status of a candidate country for EU membership.
In recent years, ideas about career have changed fundamentally, in particular, it is perceived as an opportunity to realize one's own professional development, to use personal reserves (potentials) for real awareness of one's abilities. According to the author, it is in the process of professional development of civil servants that the issue of career planning skills formation is actualized, which is implemented in determining career development goals and ways to achieve them.
The author actualizes the attention of scientists on professional career development, they refer the actions of employees to implement their plan as a planning and management of career development, which brings a number of advantages to both the official himself and the organization in which he works.
The author emphasizes that the problem of ensuring the interaction of professional and intra-organizational careers is of particular importance in the professional activity of civil servants. This interaction requires the fulfillment of a number of tasks: achieving the interdependence of the goals of a state institution/organization and an individual civil servant; ensuring orientation of career planning to a specific civil servant in order to take into account his personal needs; ensuring the transparency of the career management process; creation of clear criteria for professional development; examination of the professional potential of civil servants, etc.

This article discusses political influence on the rock n roll music which began from 1959 till 1992. Rock n roll music entered Malang through Australian radio many people who liked rock n roll music. Soekarno acted decisively and began to seriously deal with anything that smelled of foreign culture entering big cities in Indonesia, one of which was Malang. Malang musicians made music in the Soekarno era by uniting Western music with nationalist lyrics. Differences in policy can be seen in the Suharto era facing this. In the 1960s Suharto began to hold a series of performances featuring music that was prohibited during the Guided Democracy. This had an impact and gave birth to famous musicians and bands in Malang such as Ian Antono and Sylvia Saartje. The people of Malang in 1970 were very critical of music, especially rock n roll music, Malang was dubbed the barometer of Indonesian rock music in the 1970s. This article aims to find out the policies of Soekarno and Suharto on the dynamics of rock n roll music in Malang in 1959-1992.

Aim To evaluate the predictive significance of gene polymorphism in endothelin-1 type 2A receptor, NADPH oxidase, p53 protein, endothelial nitric oxide synthase, caspase 8, interleukin-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α, superoxide dismutase-2, glutathione peroxidase-1, β1-adrenoceptor, angiotensin-converting enzyme, and matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) genes in evaluating the risk of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity (AIC) in women without concurrent cardiovascular diseases (CVD).Material and methods This study included 176 women aged 45.0 [42.0; 50.0] years with breast cancer without concurrent CVD who were scheduled for polychemotherapy (PCT) with anthracycline antibiotics. Echocardiography was performed for all patients at baseline and at 12 months after the end of PCT course. Genetic polymorphism was determined with the polymerase chain reaction.Results At 12 months, all patients were in remission of the underlying disease. They were retrospectively included into 2 groups: 1st group, 52 patients with AIC and 2nd group, 124 women without AIC symptoms. The development of AIC was associated with the presence of the p53 protein gene Arg / Arg genotype (odds ratio (OR), 2.972; p=0.001), NOS3 gene T / T genotype (OR, 3.059; p=0.018), NADPH oxidase gene T / T genotype (OR, 2.753; p=0.008), GPX1 gene C / C genotype (OR, 2.345; p=0.007), MMP-3 gene 5A / 5A genotype (OR, 2.753; p=0.008), and ADRB1 gene G / G genotype (OR, 3.271; p=0.043).Conclusion Evaluation of genetic polymorphism in p53 protein (rs1042522), NOS3 (rs1799983), NADPH-oxidase (rs4673), GPX1 (rs1050450), ADRB1 (Arg389Gly, rs1801253), and MMP-3 (rs3025058) genes can be recommended for use prior to starting chemotherapy in women with breast cancer without CVD for assessing the risk of AIC. A maximum risk of cardiotoxicity is associated with the presence of the p53 protein gene Arg / Arg genotype and NOS3 gene T / T genotype.

Background: Multi environmental trials (MET) is central activity in crop improvement programs for identification of superior genotype across environment before release as a variety. The aim of the present study was to select faba bean genotypes having high seed yield and most stable performance across different environments in gangetic plains of India. Methods: The material for the study consisted of set of 11 genotype of faba bean subjected to multi-locational seed yield trials for three years (2015-2018) at four locations. The test of significance for genotype x environment (GE) interaction and eight non-parametric measures of stability analysis were used to identify high yield stable genotype across the five environments. A new approach Combined Stability Index based on yield stability performance calculated based on the ranking of the used stability measures of all the genotypes. Result: Based on low value of Combined Stability Index, HB-12-37, (CSI(i) = 10) HB-11-15, (CSI(i) = 11), HB-11-32 (CSI(i) = 14) were identified as the most stable genotypes with high yield potential. These non-parametric measures were observed to be associated with high mean seed yield. The simple rank correlation coefficient, calculated using the ranks was used to measure the association among the eight stability statistics and mean seed yield. The nature of relationships among the non-parametric measures was assessed and these stability measures are categorized in three groups. The genotype HB-12-37 (G3) fall in section 1 were the most favourable genotype due to high seed yield as well as high stability performance according to plot of all non-parametric measures with seed yield. HB-12-37 (G3) which had higher seed yield (25.19 q / ha) and high protein content (24.85%) with better stability across the environments could be used in further breeding programmes of faba bean and recommended for release as variety for plains of India.

This study was conducted to determine the pathological findings and molecular investigation of bacteria flora associated with the lesions in the lungs and livers of goats slaughtered for public consumption at the Ilorin, abattoir. A total of 450 samples (240 lungs and 210 livers) were collected and examined from goats slaughtered at the Ipata slaughterhouse in Ilorin, Kwara State. Of this number, 58 (24.17%; 95% CI = 19.19–29.96) lungs and 17 (8.10%; 95% CI = 5.17–12.58) livers revealed gross and microscopic pathological lesions as a result of bacterial pathogens. Based on gross examination, lung lesions were categorized into bronchopneumonia (27.59%), congestion (22.41%), interstitial pneumonia (17.24%), hemorrhages (13.77%), emphysematous (10.34%), and hyperemia (8.62%). In the liver, hepatic congestion 8 (47.06%) was the most observed gross lesion. Others included hepatic enlargement (29.41), hepatic fibrosis (17.65%), and hepatic abscess (5.88%). The molecular investigation revealed lung pathological lesions were as a result of Klebsiella species (51.72%) and Bacillus species (48.28%), while Escherichia species (52.94%) and Salmonella species (47.06%) were detected in the liver. The molecular analysis showed that the bacteria organisms detected in this study did not fully cluster with similar species from other parts of the world. The infection caused by these bacteria showed histopathological lesions in the lungs and livers. There is need for more studies to further characterize these bacteria species detected from Red Sokoto breeds of goats in-depth.
