Possible worlds theory, accessibility relations, and counterfactual historical fiction
Authors: Raghunath Riyukta 
Published: April 2022

Abstract
Possible Worlds Theory has commonly been invoked to describe fictional worlds and their relationship to the actual world. As an approach to genre, the relationship between fictional worlds and the actual world is also constitutive of specific text types. By drawing on the notion of accessibility relations, different genres can be classified based on the distance between their fictional worlds and the actual world. Maître, Doreen. 1983. Literature and possible worlds. Middlesex: Middlesex University Press for example, in what is considered the first attempt to adapt accessibility relations from logic to literary studies, distinguishes between four text types depending on the extent to which their fictional worlds can be seen as possible, probable, or impossible in the actual world. Developing Maître’s work, Ryan, Marie-Laure. 1991a. Possible worlds and accessibility relations: A semantic typology of fiction. Poetics Today 12. 553–576, c.f. Ryan, Marie-Laure. 1991b. Possible worlds, artificial intelligence, and narrative theory. Bloomington: Indiana University Press) creates a comprehensive taxonomy of accessibility relations that may be perceived between fictional worlds and the actual world. This includes assuming compatibility with the actual world in terms of physical laws, general truths, people, places, and entities. Using her taxonomy, she then offers a typology of 13 genres to show how fictional worlds created by different genres differ from each other. As it stands, Ryan’s typology does not contain the genre of counterfactual historical fiction, but similar genres such as science fiction and historical confabulation are included. In this article, specific examples from counterfactual historical fiction are analysed to show why it is problematic to place these texts within the genres of historical confabulation or science fiction. Furthermore, as I show, Ryan’s typological model also does not account for some of the characteristic features of the genre of counterfactual historical fiction and as such the model cannot account for all texts within the genre. To resolve this issue, I offer modifications to Ryan’s model so it may be used more effectively to define and distinguish the genre of counterfactual historical fiction.
How do characters perceive their world? Representation of perception from traditional past-tense narrative to contemporary present-tense narrative
Authors: Shigematsu Eri 
Published: April 2022

Abstract
This paper investigates representation of perception in the novel. While many critics have great interests in the conceptual level of consciousness, namely characters’ thoughts, they have paid little attention to the perceptual level of consciousness. Characters’ perceptions are important, as they often lead to their cognitive activities, making up their experiences described in narrative. The narrative technique for representing perception that has been studied is what is called represented perception: a narrative technique for rendering a character’s perceptions without explicitly indicating his/her act of perception. However, as in the case of thought representation, there are more ways to represent fictional perception according to the degree of mediacy. This paper suggests a linguistic paradigm for perception representation, examining more mediate and im-mediate ways of representing perception with some historical insights, and reveals the varied importance of perception in the history of the novel.
Substitutional Accounting for Singular Terms: Some Problems and a Slightly More Kantian Solution for Brandom
Authors: Lewin Micah 
Published: April 2022

Abstract
This article grapples with Robert Brandom’s account of singular terms. I argue that neither Brandom’s answer to the question “What are singular terms?” nor his answer to the question “Why are there any singular terms?” works as they currently stand. Brandom’s substitution-inferential semantic account of what singular terms are fails to distinguish between the semantic role of singular terms and indefinite descriptions, and Brandom’s “expressive transcendental deduction” for why there are any singular terms fails to deciseively show that singular terms are expressively necessary for the use of logical vocabulary. Still, I then characterize how Brandom does have resources within his substitution-inferential semantics to give a better, revised answer to the question “What are singular terms?” that both fits programmatically within his framework and has a curious Kantian parallel. I leave the matter offering a Brandom-friendly replacement account for why there are any singular terms thus conceived for another occasion.

Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) is a devastating human malignancy characterized by excessively uncontrolled inflammation and lung endothelial dysfunction. Non-coding RNAs play essential roles in endothelial protections during the pathological processes of ALI. The precise functions and molecular mechanisms of the lncRNA-NORAD-mediated endothelial protection remain obscure. This study reports NORAD was significantly induced in human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (HPMECs) under lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment. Silencing NORAD effectively protected HPMECs against the LPS-induced cell dysfunction. In addition, RNA pull-down and luciferase assay validated that NORAD sponged miR-30c-5p, which showed reverse functions of NORAD in the LPS-induced cell injury of HPMECs. Furthermore, the glucose metabolism of HPMECs was significantly elevated under LPS stimulation which promoted the glucose consumption and extracellular acidification rate (ECAR) of HPMECs. Inhibiting NORAD or overexpressing miR-30c-5p suppressed glucose metabolism in HPMECs, leading to protective effects on HPMECs under LPS stimulation. The glycolysis key enzyme, lactate dehydrogenase-A (LDHA), was subsequently identified as a direct target of miR-30c-5p. Finally, recovery of miR-30c-5p in NORAD-overexpressing HPMECs effectively overrode the NORAD-promoted glycolysis and impaired endothelial dysfunction under LPS stimulation by targeting LDHA. Summarily, we demonstrated a NORAD-miR-30c-5p-LDHA-glycolysis axis in the LPS-induced HPMECs dysfunction in vitro and in vivo, contributing to the development of anti-ALI therapeutic approaches.
COVID-19 fear, post-traumatic stress, growth, and the role of resilience
Authors: Fino Edita , Mema Denis , Treska Valbona 
Published: April 2022

Abstract
Understanding the factors through which pandemic fear may be associated not just with distress, but also with growth outcomes is crucial to informing interventions across population groups and cultural settings. To achieve this aim, in a cross-sectional study, we examined the relationship between the fear of COVID-19, post-traumatic stress and post-traumatic growth while assessing the moderating role of trait resilience. Findings showed that fear of COVID-19 was associated with both stress and growth outcomes and that resilience was a significant moderator of these effects. Specifically, trait resilience acted as a buffer against post-traumatic stress and as a booster factor for appreciation for life. Given the imbalance between needs and resources in times of global pandemic, interventions promoting psychological wellbeing should leverage existing resources and consider psychological resilience as a valuable target to protect against negative and optimise positive outcomes.

Published: April 2022

Abstract
The mechanical, thermal, and barrier properties of tapioca starch films produced using a solvent casting method with varying concentrations of chitosan nanoparticles (CNPs; 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35% w/w of solid starch) were investigated. The addition of 15% w/w CNP (size range: 20–50 nm) to the starch films (starch/CNP films) enhanced the tensile strength from 1.12 to 10.03 MPa (7.96-fold increment) and elongation at break from 67.00 to 90.77% (0.35-fold increment). However, the thermal stability of the starch films reduced slightly whereby the maximum degradation temperature decreased from 316.32 to 289.11°C (0.09-fold decrement) with the addition of CNP. The opacity of 15% w/w starch/CNP films increased from 8.07 to 14.67 due to the presence of CNP within the starch matrix that hinders the light transmission pass through the film. Furthermore, reductions in the water vapor permeability from 1.1 × 10−11 to 0.63 × 10−11 g/Pa h m (4-fold increment) and oxygen permeability from 7.38 × 10−3 to 3.59 × 10−3 cm3/m day Pa (0.51-fold increment) of the films were observed. Starch/CNP films fabricated in this work exhibit enhanced the mechanical and barrier properties, thus proving the promising potential to be employed as food packaging materials.
Long-term stability of ready-to-use epinephrine 0.02 mg/mL injection solution in 50 mL glass vials

Published: April 2022

Abstract

Objectives
In adult intensive care patients, epinephrine is mostly administered by continuous injection with syringe pumps. The objective of this study was to investigate the physicochemical stability of pharmacy prepared ready-to-use epinephrine (E) 0.02 mg/mL injection solutions (total volume 50 mL) for assigning shelf-life.

Methods
E 0.02 mg/mL injection solution in 50 mL amber type l glass vials was produced batch-wise in the pharmacy department. Stability of the refrigerated (2–8 °C) product was investigated in real time over a period of 36 months by analyzing E concentrations, osmolality, pH, and sub-visible particles at predefined time-points. For E concentration measurements a stability-indicating, validated reversed-phase HPLC-PDA assay was used.

Results
The autoclaving process of E 0.02 mg/mL injection solution in 50 mL amber type I glass vials caused 5% loss of the active substance. The finished product remained stable over the study period of 36 months when stored refrigerated.

Conclusions
Batch-wise production of ready-to-use E injection solution 0.02 mg/mL in 50 mL amber glass vials was successfully implemented in our pharmacy department. According to the stability tests, a shelf-life of 36 months can be assigned to the finished product stored refrigerated. Studies concerning stability at room temperature would be useful.
Semi-endogenous Versus Schumpeterian Growth Models: A Critical Review of the Literature and New Evidence
Authors: Herzer Dierk 
Published: April 2022

Abstract
Several studies have tested semi-endogenous versus Schumpeterian growth models using different methodological approaches. This paper critically reviews these studies including their approaches and provides new evidence on this issue, by analyzing both time-series data from the United States and panel data from 19 OECD countries over the period 1980–2014. The review finds much support for Schumpeterian growth theory, but shows that all studies reviewed have several limitations. These limitations include conceptual problems associated with the use of the number/stock of patents as a measure of the flow/stock of knowledge, the possibility of spurious regressions due to non-stationary data, potential mismeasurement of R&D inputs due to possible interpolation and deflation errors, misspecification problems that can arise in difference models when variables are cointegrated, and potential spurious rejections of the unit root hypothesis for R&D intensity when the lag length in unit root tests is too small. The present study avoids these limitations and finds strong evidence in favor of semi-endogenous growth.
Lexical restrictions on grammatical relations in voice constructions (Northern Amis)
Authors: Bril Isabelle 
Published: April 2022

Abstract
Amis (Austronesian, Taiwan) displays a rich, partly symmetrical voice system and a split case-marking pattern which are selected and restricted by (i) verb classes whose basic diathesis correlates with semantic properties such as activities versus states, and (ii) by Aktionsart features (i.e., atelic activities versus telic accomplishment and achievements), which also denote degrees of patient affectedness. Referential features such as patient definiteness, and semantic features such as agent’s animacy and intentionality also bear on voice selection. This voice system offers alternate ways of encoding arguments within a bipartite case-marking pattern; it also promotes peripheral, non-core arguments to subject function via applicative voice constructions.
Causatives in the languages of the Volga-Kama Region
Authors: Bradley Jeremy , F. Gulyás Nikolett , Czentnár András 
Published: April 2022

AbstractTurkic and Uralic languages of the Russian Volga-Kama Region share a strong preference for transitivization over detransitivization (in contrast to Russian), leading to wide usage of causative derivational suffixes. These tendencies are typical for Turkic and Uralic however and do not necessarily require a contact-linguistic explanation. However, microvariation in causative constructions in these languages and their dialects show convergence between unrelated or distantly related varieties – i.e., strong indicators of contact-induced convergence. This paper looks at such facets in three Uralic (Mari, Udmurt, Komi-Permyak) and two Turkic (Tatar, Chuvash) languages of the region.
Keine Liebe (mehr) in Religionspädagogik und Religionsunterricht? Theoretische Vernachlässigung und praktisches Interesse
Authors: Schweitzer Friedrich 
Published: April 2022

Zusammenfassung
Den Ausgangspunkt dieses Beitrags stellt die weitreichende Vernachlässigung von Liebe als Thema in der wissenschaftlichen Religionspädagogik dar. In einem ersten Schritt wird diese Vernachlässigung im Blick auf Veröffentlichungen im Bereich der wissenschaftlichen Religionspädagogik aufgezeigt, was zu einem widersprüchlichen Bild führt. Denn die theologische Grundlage der christlichen Religionspädagogik wird oft so beschrieben, dass sie die Erwartung weckt, dass Liebe im Zentrum des christlichen Verständnisses von Erziehung und Bildung steht (Liebe Gottes, Nächstenliebe, Feindesliebe, Selbstliebe). In einem zweiten Schritt werden Schulbücher und Unterrichtsmaterialien für den Religionsunterricht untersucht, um der These nachzugehen, dass die Praxis des Religionsunterrichts stärker dazu tendiert als die wissenschaftliche Religionspädagogik, Liebe als ein Zentralthema anzusehen. Diese These wird darüber hinaus vor dem Hintergrund empirischer Befunde im Blick auf das Interesse von Schüler:innen an Themen, die sich auf Liebe beziehen, diskutiert. Am Ende werden mögliche Gründe für die Spannung zwischen der Vernachlässigung von Liebe im wissenschaftlich-religionspädagogischen Diskurs und dem praktischen Interesse an diesem Thema vorgeschlagen.
Hypertrophic Effects of Single- Versus Multi-Joint Exercise of the Limb Muscles: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Published: April 2022

ABSTRACT
We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis comparing the effects of single-joint (SJ) and multijoint (MJ) resistance exercises on muscle hypertrophy of the limb muscles. A systematic search was performed to identify randomized trials that directly compared hypertrophic changes between SJ and MJ resistance exercises, as well as combinations of the 2, in healthy adults. A total of 7 studies met inclusion criteria, comprising 10 nested comparisons. Meta-analysis indicated a trivial standardized point estimate with a relatively moderate precision for the confidence interval estimate. Subgroup analyses showed no effect on results when stratifying studies according to combined SJ + MJ versus MJ training alone, as well as under volume-equated or nonequated conditions. However, scrutiny of individual studies in conjunction with related indirect evidence collectively indicate that SJ exercise may provide the ability to preferentially hypertrophy muscular subdivisions, potentially promoting more complete muscle development. We conclude that current evidence indicates similar whole muscle hypertrophy between MJ and SJ training. There may be added benefit to combining SJ and MJ exercises for targeting individual aspects of a given muscle, although this hypothesis remains understudied. Future studies are needed to explore the effects of SJ and MJ exercises in resistance training on regional muscle hypertrophy.
Pros and Cons of Digital Solutions for the Implementation of Freedom of Movement and Residence in the Schengen Area in the Era of the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Hryniewicka-Filipkowska Wioleta 
Published: April 2022

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV–2 coronavirus, which emerged in Europe in January 2020, gave rise to restrictions by European Union Member States on freedom of movement and residence in the Schengen area. Individual actions by states mobilized the EU to take formal steps as well as to implement practical solutions to coordinate the efforts of all Member States. Digital solutions belong to the practical measures. Their implementation may bring potential benefits but is also associated with the possibility of potential risks. This article presents the basic assumptions of freedom of movement and residence in the Schengen area and their limitations by Member States justified by public health reasons. The characteristics of digital solutions for facilitating freedom of movement during the COVID-19 pandemic are then presented, taking into account their effectiveness. The paper concludes with a presentation of the benefits and potential risks associated with the implementation of selected digital solutions by the European Union.
Remote Trial and Remote Detention Hearing in Light of the ECHR Standard of the Rights of the Accused
Authors: Kulesza Cezary 
Published: April 2022

Abstract
This article concerns the compliance of the institutions of remote trials and remote detention hearings introduced to the CCP by the Polish ‘coronavirus act’ of 19 June 2020 with the ECHR standard on the rights of the accused. In the first part of the article, it is indicated that the ECtHR in its jurisprudence accepts that a trial in the form of a videoconference is not in principle contrary to the ECHR, provided, however, that there are compelling reasons to dispense with the traditional trial (main or appellate) and that the procedure of using a videoconference itself meets the requirements of a fair trial according to Article 6 ECHR and ensures the accused both effective personal participation in the trial and effective use of the services of a defence counsel, in particular the confidentiality of the lawyer’s contact with their client. The Covid-19 outbreak has changed European justice systems, and now videoconferencing in court proceedings is seen not only as an exceptional measure, but as possibly an effective part of the ordinary activity of courts. The analysis of the assumptions of remote trials in ordinary Polish criminal proceedings shows that this institution does not meet the standards of a fair trial, especially the standard of the effective participation of the defence counsel. In contrast, compared to a remote trial, a remote detention hearing in Poland has a wider scope of application and poses serious risks to the standards on deprivation of liberty (Article 5(3) and Article 3 ECHR) and effective defence (Article 6(3) ECHR). The possibility of using both forms of videoconferencing without the participation of a defence counsel and the permanent nature of the changes introduced are particularly worrying.
Manufacturing of spur gears having normal teeth on different pressure angles by module disc milling cutter
Authors: Bodzás Sándor 
Published: April 2022

Abstract
The aim of this study is the manufacturing analysis of five spur gear pairs where the initial geometric parameters are the same only the pressure angle is different. Firstly, the gears must be designed and modelled. After that, I analyse the modification of this geometric parameter for the manufacturing parameters of the pinion and the gear in the case of gear cutting by module disc milling cutter. Using this technology the one tooth cutting can repeat from tooth to tooth in the function of the number of teeth. I would like to find correlations between the pressure angle and the manufacturing parameters. For this purpose, I define the initial technological parameters and calculate necessary technological parameters for the manufacturing process in a general way. I also define the manufacturing parameters for the given gear geometries. This analysis is practical and theoretical at the same time since the results and the process can help the manufacturing engineers to develop the gear manufacturing processes and applying my results for similar manufacturing problems.

Published: April 2022

Los recursos hidrogeológicos en la microcuenca Macarí son limitados e imprescindibles, debido a la variabilidad climática en la región. Sin embargo, el aumento de las actividades agrícolas, ganaderas y crecimiento poblacional, contribuyen a la intensificación del estrés en los recursos hídricos. La presente investigación tuvo por objetivo determinar el balance hídrico, mediante el modelamiento del flujo subterráneo con el software Modflow 6 con Model Mouse 4 en la microcuenca Macarí ubicada en la provincia de Melgar, departamento de Puno - Perú. La metodología del estudio se realizó en 3 fases: en la primera fase se determinó la ubicación, en la segunda se adquirieron datos de diferentes instituciones como la Autoridad Nacional del Agua, Instituto Nacional Geográfico, satelital ALOS PALSAR y datos meteorológicos de la estación de Chuquibambilla para obtener la tasa de evapotranspiración potencial, en la tercera fase se realizó el procesamiento de datos en el software Modflow 6 con Model Mouse 4 donde se importaron todas las variables obtenidas (DEM, pozos y ríos). Los resultados muestran una recarga de 1.4971 m3/s de infiltración en el subsuelo en sus diferentes capas. En la descarga tenemos el drenaje por los ríos que conforman la microcuenca con un total 0.9474 m3/s, y descarga por evapotranspiración que es la absorción de la planta del subsuelo 0.5498 m3/s. En conclusión, mediante el balance hídrico, se observó la distribución de agua en el subsuelo y que la gran mayoría se descarga por drenaje en los ríos que conforma la microcuenca.
