Longitudinal changes in lifestyle behaviors and physical fitness of Japanese preschoolers during the COVID-19 pandemic: Results from a 7-year longitudinal study
Authors: Guo Hongzhi , Kim Hyunshik 
Published: December 2022

AbstractThe COVID-19 pandemic appears to have had a serious adverse impact on the healthy behaviors of preschoolers, in particular outdoor play. However, details of its impact are still unclear. Thus, in this study, we investigate changes in lifestyle behavior and physical fitness of Japanese preschoolers during the pandemic. We collected longitudinal data before and during the pandemic and objectively assessed changes in the physical fitness and lifestyle (outdoor playtime, screen time, and sleep) of Japanese preschoolers. Participants were 4,882 preschoolers in Hiroshima who underwent objective health and fitness assessments (25-m sprint, standing long jump, tennis ball throw); their parents answered questions on their demographics, physical activity, screen time, and sleep duration. Chi-squared test, ANOVA, and t-test were applied. The results showed a significant increase in screen time during the pandemic (p < 0.05), reduction in outdoor playtime in all preschool children (p < 0.001), and deterioration in all three fitness outcomes (running, jumping, and throwing) in all preschool children (p < 0.001). The results showed negative effects of the pandemic on children’s health and lifestyle behaviors and fitness, suggesting the need for various interventions to promote physical activity under pandemic conditions.
Datenschutz und Umweltschutz - ein Dilemma?
Authors: Morand Anne-Sophie , Obrecht Liliane 
Published: December 2022

Rechenzentren (auch Datenzentren, data centres) werden in Zukunft knapp vier Prozent des gesamten schweizerischen Stromverbrauchs ausmachen. Ihr hoher Strombedarf und ihre enorme Wärmeerzeugung lassen es sinnvoll erscheinen, Rechenzentren in Regionen mit umweltfreundlicher Stromerzeugung oder kühlen Aussentemperaturen zu platzieren. Die Realität zeigt, dass insbesondere die USA als attraktiver Standort für den Bau von Rechenzentren gilt. Wird mit Cloud-Lösungen ausländischer Anbieter gearbeitet, macht es aus datenschutzrechtlicher Sicht durchaus Sinn, trotzdem Rechenzentren in der Schweiz zu nutzen. Um den negativen Umwelteinfluss dabei zu reduzieren, sind insbesondere die Kantone gefragt, gesetzgeberisch tätig zu werden und ihre Energiegesetze um verpflichtende Bestimmungen zur Abwärmenutzung und Energieeffizienz zu ergänzen.

Les centres de données (ou data centers) représenteront à l'avenir près de quatre pour cent de la consommation totale d'électricité en Suisse. Au regard de leur besoin élevé en électricité et leur immense capacité de production de chaleur, il semble judicieux de les placer dans des régions où la production d'électricité est respectueuse de l'environnement ou dans des zones climatiquement froides. La pratique montre que les États-Unis sont particulièrement attrayants et appréciés pour la construction de tels centres. Si l'on travaille avec des solutions cloud de fournisseurs étrangers, il est préférable, du point de vue de la protection des données, de recourir malgré tout à des centres de données en Suisse. Afin de réduire l'impact négatif sur l'environnement, les cantons sont invités à légiférer et à compléter leurs lois sur l'énergie par des dispositions contraignantes sur l'utilisation des rejets thermiques et l'efficacité énergétique.
Historians of Pre-Revolution Period in the Soviet Dissertation System M.D. Prisyolkov (1939) and A.I. Andreev (1940) Defending the Doctoral Dissertations
Authors: Алеврас Н.Н. , Гришина Н.В. 
Published: December 2022

Статья посвящена становлению советской диссертационной системы (1930-е гг.). В основе авторской гипотезы находится представление о том, что советская диссертационная система выросла из дореволюционного опыта присуждения ученых степеней. Апробация гипотезы осуществлена на примере диссертационных историй М.Д. Присёлкова и А.И. Андреева – историков, чье вхождение в научное сообщество началось в досоветский период, а достижение высшей ученой степени доктора наук произошло на рубеже 1930–1940-х гг. Научные пути историков позволяют не только оценить степень преемственности /разрыва советской диссертационной системы по отношению к дореволюционному опыту, но и проследить формирование и обновление научных концепций историков в области источниковедения.
The article describes the formation of the Soviet dissertation system (the 1930s). The authors propose a hypothesis that the Soviet dissertation system goes back to the pre-revolu-tion practice of granting a degree. The hypothesis is approved on the dissertation experience of M.D. Prisyolkov and A.I. Andreev. The historians started their scientific career in the pre-revolution period while being granted a doctoral degree at the turn of the 1930s-1940s. Their academic tracks allow the authors not only to evaluate the continuity/discontinuity level of the Soviet dissertation system and the pre-revolution practice but also to trace the formation and updating of historical scientific conceptions in source studies.
The Idea of the «Nazione Piemontese» in Italian-French political thought. Patriotic discussion of 1799
Authors: Митрофанов А.А. 
Published: December 2022

Статья посвящена рассмотрению концепта «нации» в политической франко-итальянской публицистике Пьемонта периода Французской революции и французской оккупации. Анализ публицистики 1799 - начала 1800-х гг. показывает, что в дискуссии о судьбе Пьемонта активно участвовали как радикальные, так и умеренные республиканцы, члены различных клубов и обществ. Идея французского правительства и части итальянских республиканцев о присоединении Пьемонта к Французской республике вызвала мощное сопротивление среди интеллектуалов. «Патриоты» 1799 г. рассматривали создание особой Пьемонтской республики как часть проекта будущего объединения Италии. Они обосновывали суверенитет «пьемонтской нации» или «субальпийского народа», апеллируя к чувству местного патриотизма, национальному характеру, языку, истории, традициям и вере. Анализируется влияние, которое оказали пьемонтские интеллектуалы конца XVIII в. на становление традиций политического партикуляризма и местного национализма в революционный период. Отмечается, что идея особой «пьемонтской нации» получила развитие и в публицистике эпохи Наполеоновского господства в Италии.
The article is devoted to the consideration of the concept of «nation» in the political thought of Piedmont during the French Revolution and French occupation. Analysis of political writings of 1799 – early 1800s. shows that both radical and moderate Republicans, members of various clubs and societies, actively participated in the discussion about the fate of Piedmont. The idea of ​​the French government and part of the Italian republicans to annex Piedmont to the French Republic provoked strong resistance among intellectuals. The Patriots of 1799 saw the creation of a special Piedmont republic as part of the project for the future unification of Italy. They substantiated the sovereignty of the «Piedmontese nation» or «subalpine people» by appealing to the feeling of local patriotism, national character, language, history, traditions and faith. The influence of the intellectuals of Piedmont in the late 18th century is analyzed on the establishment of traditions of political particularism and local nationalism in the revolutionary period. It is noted that the idea of ​​a special «Piedmont nation» was also developed in the political literature of the era of Napoleonic rule in Italy.
Персидский исторический роман и национальная идентичность
Authors: Фарахмандфар М. , Абдоллахи М. 
Published: December 2022

В статье обсуждается, как идентичности конструируются и текстуально артикулируются через исторические романы, которые переносят прошлое в настоящее и связывают национальную идентичность людей с воспоминаниями о предках, со славным прошлым своего народа. Возникновение исторического романа в Иране совпало с иранской Конституционной революцией 1906 года, которую многие критики и историки приветствовали как важное время социально-политического пробуждения, которое способствовало защите культурного наследия прошлого и подъему национального самосознания. Историография предоставила иранским писателям плодородную почву для восстановления чувства национальной идентичности. Цель данной статьи – показать, как в персидских исторических романах выдвигаются на первый план симбиотические отношения между памятью и идентичностью, и раскрыть национальное значение этих текстов.
The present article discusses how terrains of belonging are constructed and articulated textually through historical novels which bring the past into the present, and link the national identity of people to memories of their ancestors, to their nation's glorious past. The rise of the historical novel in Iran was concomitant with Iran's Constitutional Revolution of 1906, which was hailed by many a critic and historian as a major time of sociopolitical awakening which contributed to protecting the cultural legacies of the past and keeping aglow the propitious light of belonging and nationhood. Historiography has been a fecund ground for Iranian fiction-writers in which to retrieve a sense of national identity. This article aims at showing how Persian historical novels foreground the symbiotic relationship between remembering and belonging, and open up texts to their national significances.

Simultaneous heterotrophic nitrification and aerobic denitrification potential of Paenibacillus sp. strain GLM-08 isolated from lignite mine waste and its role ammonia removal from mine waste water
Authors: Karuriya Silisti , Choudhary Sangeeta 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
Paenibacillus sp. strain GLM-08 was isolated from a lignite mine waste site in the Barmer basin, Rajasthan, India. The strain is efficient in heterotrophic nitrification and aerobic denitrification. This bacterium could remove approximately more than 95% of NH4+, NO3−, and NO2− in 24 h. The average nitrogen (N) removal rate of the strain was found to be 4.775 mg/L/H, 5.66 mg/L/H, and 5.01 mg/L/H for NH4+, NO3−, and NO2−, respectively. Bioaugmentation of mine wastewater with Paenibacillus sp. strain GLM-08 demonstrated N removal of 86.6% under conditions of a high load of NH4+. The presence of potential genetic determinants (nxrB, nirS, and nosZ) having role in heterotrophic nitrification and aerobic denitrification was confirmed by PCR based analysis. The findings show that this bacterium performs simultaneous nitrification and denitrification and has a high nitrogen removal efficiency indicating the potential application of the strain in the treatment of wastewater.

Published: December 2022

Abstract
Present study proposed the synthesis of mixed p-type and n-type nanocomposite heterostructures by co-precipitation method. The as-synthesized heterostructures were characterized through different characterization techniques. The as-synthesized Bi2WO6 and Bi2O3-ZnO heterostructures were tested as photocatalysts during the photodegradation of Bisphenol A (BPA). The Bi2O3-ZnO heterostructure nanocomposite was found to be a more effective photocatalyst than Bi2WO6. The effect of operating parameters including catalytic dose (0.02–0.15 gL-1), initial BPA concentration (5–20 mgL-1), temperature change (5–20 °C) and solution pH changes (4, 5, 7, and 8) were evaluated with Bi2O3-ZnO under UV-light irradiation by selecting a 300 W Xe lamp. More than 90% BPA was degraded with 0.15 gL−1 Bi2O3-ZnO, keeping 1.0 mM H2O2 concentration fixed in 250 mL of reaction suspension. The HPLC and GC-MS were used to detect the reaction intermediates and final products. A plausible degradation pathway was proposed on the basis of the identification of reaction intermediates. Repeatability test analysis confirmed that the as-synthesized catalyst showed superb catalytic performance on its removal trend. The kinetics of degradation of BPA were well fitted by the power laws model. With the order of reaction being 0.6, 0.9, 1.2, and 1.3 for different operating parameters, i.e., catalyst dose, initial pH, temperature, and initial BPA concentration.
An Arabidopsis Maternal Effect Embryo Arrest Protein is an Adenylyl Cyclase with Predicted Roles in Embryo Development and Response to Abiotic Stress
Authors: Kawadza David , Dikobe Tshegofatso , Chatukuta Patience , Takundwa Mutsa , Bobo Enetia , Sehlabane Katlego , Ruzvidzo Oziniel 
Published: December 2022

Background:
Second messengers play a key role in linking environmental stimuli to cellular responses. One such messenger, 3′,5′-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) generated by adenylyl cyclase (AC), has long been established as an essential signaling molecule in many physiological processes of higher plants, including growth, development, and stress response. Very few ACs have been identified in plants so far, so more must be sought.

Objective:
To test the probable AC activity of an Arabidopsis MEE (AtMEE) protein and infer its function bioinformatically.

Methods:
A truncated version of the AtMEE protein (encoded by At2g34780 gene) harboring the annotated AC catalytic center (AtMEE-AC) was cloned and expressed in BL21 Star pLysS Escherichia coli cells followed by its purification using the nickel-nitriloacetic acid (Ni-NTA) affinity system. The purified protein was tested for its probable in vitro AC activity by enzyme immunoassay. The AtMEE-AC protein was also expressed in the SP850 mutant E. coli strain, followed by an assessment (visually) of its ability to complement the AC-deficiency (cyaA mutation) in this mutant. Finally, the AtMEE protein was analyzed bioinformatically to infer its probable biological function(s).

Results:
AtMEE is an AC molecule whose in vitro activity is Mn2+-dependent and positively modulated by NaF. Moreover, AtMEE is capable of complementing the AC-deficiency (cyaA) mutation in the SP850 mutant strain. AtMEE is primarily involved in embryo development and also specifically expressed in response to abiotic stress via the MYB expression core motif signaled by cAMP.

Conclusion:
AtMEE is an AC protein whose functions are associated with embryo development and response to abiotic stress.
Analysis on a Typical COVID-19 Outbreak Spread by Tourist Groups
Authors: Zheng Ling , Yao Jinxi , Yu Yunhui , Wang Bo , Luo Bin 
Published: December 2022

Background
Novel coronavirus disease (SARS COV-2 infection or COVID-19) is a respiratory tract infection which has been linked with severe acute respiratory syndrome transmitted particularly through touching and respiration. The purpose of this study is to understand the epidemiological characteristics of the COVID-19 cases in a typical tourist-related outbreak and explore the possible route for its transmission.

Methods
All data and epidemiological survey reports of COVID-19 cases in the outbreak were reported by provincial and urban (county) Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Health Commissions nationwide from October 16 to November 5, 2021. The epidemiological survey reports included information on gender, age, source of infection (imported from other provinces or locally acquired), daily life track and itinerary, date of symptom onset and date of diagnosis. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods, one-way analysis of variance, independent t-test, and Chi-square tests. Histograms and percentage stacked area plots were used to describe the epidemiological characteristics of the outbreaks.

Results
The COVID-19 outbreak associated with the tourist groups has involved 551 COVID-19 cases, with a median age of 44 years (interquartile range: 30-59 years), gradually spreading from the northwestern region to the national level across 15 provinces of China. Fifth cases (16.0%) had traveled to ejin banner, resulting in 68 second-generation cases. The outbreak involved 11 flights and 19 trains, with a total of 27 confirmed cases. An amount of 42 related outbreaks were clustered, of which 21 outbreaks (50.0%) occurred in households and 10 outbreaks (23.81%) in restaurants. About 106 confirmed cases were related to the restaurant gathering. The median incubation period for this COVID-19 outbreak was 7 days (inter-quartile range: 5-10 days).

Conclusions
The survey results indicated that this COVID-19 outbreak originated in Ejina Banner and spread by tourist groups, which was a typical infection outbreak promoted by travel. Our results further confirmed that travel need to be more strictly weighed in pandemic like COVID-19, and people need to pay more attention to the prevention against infectious diseases particularly when traveling in a tourist group.
Oito vezes Jaime nasceu já cá
Authors: Morais Raquel 
Published: December 2022

Neste artigo, proponho uma análise do filme Jaime (1974) a partir do conceito de prosopopeia, aqui lido como forma de atribuir vida a um morto e de falar através da sua voz. O ausente é Jaime Fernandes, cujos desenhos e escritos estão no centro desta obra, realizada por António Reis com assistência de Margarida Cordeiro. A partir da análise de algumas sequências, descrevo o filme como um movimento duplo: por um lado, a figura de Fernandes é conjurada através da mobilização de objectos e lugares associados à sua biografia, tornando o morto vivo e visível; por outro lado, o filme vai além da recuperação da memória daquele homem, e as evidências materiais da sua existência antes servem de veículo para vários dos interesses e temáticas que Reis e Cordeiro desenvolvem noutros filmes. De entre esses interesses, olho com maior detalhe para: a importância atribuída a modos de existência alheados do centro ou da norma; o questionamento acerca de formas possíveis de representação e preservação da realidade; o pensamento dos realizadores sobre cinema enquanto meio de expressão, pensamento e arquivo vivo; uma concepção do mundo em função de recorrências e retornos e da possibilidade de continuar a viver através dos outros.

Published: December 2022

Bu çalışmada Türk saz musikimizde geçki(modülasyon) konusu ele alınmış olup, betimsel araştırma yöntemlerinden tarama (survey) tekniği ile yürütülmüştür. Musikimiz içerisinde önemli bir yeri olan geçki, bir makam icra edilirken onun içinde genişleme ya da bir veya birkaç makama geçmek için yapılan bir geçiş (bir nevi geçici veya kalıcı modülasyon) biçimidir. Diğer bir deyişle genellikle yakın makamlardan veya yakın seslerden faydalanılarak başka bir makama geçmek veya kısa süre gezinip aynı makama geri dönmek için kullanılan diziler, sesler ve melodilere verilen bir isimdir. Türk musikisinde geçkiler taksimlerin yanında da her türlü saz eseri, gazel, şarkı ve büyük bestelerde kullanılan ve bu yolla taksim ve eser icralarına renk katan bir yapıdır. Yapılan sanatsal icranın içine farklı lezzetlerin girmesini sağlayan hem ilmi, hem estetik, hem de duygulara hitap eden genişletici bir birikim olayıdır. Yakın ve uzak geçki diye ikiye ayrılırlar.
Bu çalışmamız Türk saz musikimizde her türlü saz eserlerinde yapılmış geçkiler üzrerine odaklanmıştır.
The Dynamic Process of Being (a Person): Two Process-Ontological Theories of Personal Identity
Authors: Siakel Daniel R. 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
The purpose of this article is to introduce, interpret, and develop two incompatible process-ontological theories of personal identity that have received little attention in analytic metaphysics. The first theory derives from the notion of personal identity proposed in Alfred North Whitehead’s philosophy, but I interpret this notion differently from previous commentators. The Whiteheadian theory may appeal to those who believe that personal identity involves an entity or entities that are essentially dynamic, but has nothing to do with diachronic objectual identity: the (putative) binary equivalence relation that every entity bears to itself, and only to itself even after undergoing intrinsic change. The Whiteheadian theory may also find favor with those who, like Whitehead, reject the possibility of pure processes and hold that in every becoming, something—which need not be an object, thing, or individual substance—becomes. The second theory derives from the notion of recurrent dynamics presented in Johanna Seibt’s General Process Theory. The Seibtian theory may appeal to those who believe that personal identity involves not only an entity or entities that are essentially dynamic, but also the relation of diachronic objectual identity. The Seibtian theory may also find favor with those who, like Broad and Sellars, find reason to postulate pure processes.
