Authors: Okdemir Deniz , Acikgozoglu Aysel , Akgun Abdurrahman , Esen Ihsan 
Published: October 2022

Abstract

Objectives
The aim of this study is to determine the plasma free carnitine and acyl-carnitine levels at the time of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) diagnosis, and at the end of DKA treatment and to investigate their association with the duration of DKA treatment in children with DKA.

Methods
A total of 40 children with DKA who were treated consecutively in a tertiary health center for DKA were included in the study. The median age of the children was 11.3 years (1.1–17.5) and 25 of them (62.5%) were girls. In addition to routine blood tests, plasma free carnitine and acyl-carnitine levels were measured just before the start of intravenous insulin therapy and at the time of discontinuation of intravenous insulin therapy when DKA therapy was completed.

Results
There was no difference in plasma free carnitine and acyl-carnitine levels before and after DKA treatment (p=0.776 and p=0.743 respectively). However, while the frequency of low plasma free carnitine was 30% at the beginning of the treatment, it was observed that this frequency was 20% at the end of the DKA treatment. There was no correlation between duration of DKA treatment and plasma free carnitine or acyl-carnitine levels at admission (p=0.497, r=−0.111 and p=0.474, r=0.116 respectively).

Conclusions
There is no a relationship between duration of DKA treatment and plasma free carnitine or acyl-carnitine level at admission in children with DKA.

AbstractIn the following research, we specifically assessed the feasibility of a novel AS-1411-chitosan (CS)-gold nanoparticle (AuNPs) delivery system to carry methotrexate (MTX) into the cancer cells. The designed system had a spherical shape with average size of 62 ± 2.4 nm, the zeta potential of −32.1 ± 1.4 mV, and released MTX in a controlled pH- and time-dependent manner. CS-AuNPs could successfully penetrate the breast cancer cells and release the therapeutic drug, and ultimately, be accumulated by the nucleolin-AS1411 targeting mechanism within thein vivoenvironment. The anticancer activity of MTX was attributed to the induction of mitochondria membrane potential loss and nuclear fragmentation, which leads to apoptotic death. Moreover, the cellular internalization confirmed the high potential in the elimination of cancer cells without notable cytotoxicity on non-target cells. Therefore, it was concluded that the AS1411-CS-AuNPs with considerablein vitroandin vivoresults could be utilized as a favorable system for breast cancer treatment.

Abstract
In the present work, manganese cobaltite (MnCo2O4) spinel (MCO) was synthetized by Pechini and hydrothermal method, characterized and photocatalytically evaluated toward H2 production through water splitting under visible-light irradiation. Characterization consisted in Thermogravimetry analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scattering transmission electronic microscopy, BET surface area, UV-Vis spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, Hall effect, and photoluminescence. The MCO were evaluated as photocatalyst using an artificial visible light lamp and monitored by gas chromatography. XRD analysis found a pure spinel phase MCO. The surface area was ∼5 m2·g−1 for the MCO synthetized by Pechini and increased to 155 m2·g−1 with the hydrothermal method with acetates as precursors. The Pechini MCO showed higher carrier mobility but the fastest recombination. Photocatalytic evaluation of the MCOs showed that the highest photocatalytic activity generated was 12 μmol H2/gcat at 8 h with the MCO obtained by hydrothermal method with the acetates.
O PROJETO TRADUTÓRIO EXOTIZANTE DE JOSÉ DE ALENCAR EM IRACEMA
Authors: Luis Araujo de Oliveira Batista Eduardo 
Published: October 2022

Um dos romances brasileiros mais traduzidos, tendo sido o primeiro a ser publicado em língua inglesa, Iracema (1865), de José de Alencar, guarda em sua própria poética uma proposta tradutória, que pretendemos expor e discutir neste artigo. Em sua proposição de uma obra literária indianista que criasse uma linguagem nacional pela mescla do tupi com o português, Alencar introduziu vocábulos, expressões e metáforas indígenas no texto em português por meio de uma série de procedimentos que encenam uma prática tradutória. Por meio do levantamento desses procedimentos tradutórios, assim como pela leitura dos paratextos da obra, onde o autor apresenta a concepção e o projeto do romance, identificamos a proposta tradutória embutida em Iracema como portadora de uma estratégia de exotização da língua (e, por extensão, da literatura e cultura brasileiras), na qual a língua receptora (o português) se deixa contaminar pela estrutura e vocabulário da língua de origem (o tupi).
TRADUZIR MENTIRA E SORTILÉGIO DE ELSA MORANTE
Authors: Cabral Teixeira Doneda Luciana 
Published: October 2022

A proposta de traduzir para o português o romance Mentira e sortilégio (Menzogna e sortilegio), da escritora italiana Elsa Morante (1912-1985), foi realizada a partir da análise crítica da obra, considerando aspectos estilísticos e discursivos e contextualizando a obra socialmente e historicamente. Observa-se a influência da autora na escritora italiana Elena Ferrante, sucesso literário contemporâneo, e a importância dessa obra no panorama literário internacional, considerando questões na literatura como feminismo, maternidade, diferenças sociais e econômicas, alteridade e a mentira como estratégia de controle. Para justificar a relevância da autora foi apresentado um panorama sobre a tradução dos seus livros no mundo e versões cinematográficas das suas obras. A proposta de tradução se desenvolve a partir da conceituação de Lawrence Venuti de estrangeirizar, superando tanto a domesticação como a exotização indiferenciada no processo tradutório.
A NORMA DO MONOLINGUISMO NA TRADUÇÃO DO TEXTO MULTILÍNGUE
Authors: Molína Lucía , Aily Franco de Camargo Katia 
Published: October 2022

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar as traduções indiretas de um texto multilíngue para uma mesma língua – o português – em dois sistemas literários distintos: o português europeu e o brasileiro. A opção de manter o multilinguismo do texto original ou, ao contrário, a opção pelo monolinguismo, atua como um padrão para a tradução, e, portanto, uma de suas características definidoras é a especificidade sociocultural (TOURY, 1995, p. 104). Essa característica inerente à natureza das normas pressupõe que essas não se aplicam igualmente a todos os sistemas culturais. Partindo desse princípio, propomos uma análise comparativa entre as traduções portuguesa e brasileira do romance Män som hatar kvinnor, de Stieg Larsson, com foco nas opções de tradução do léxico escrito em uma língua diferente do sueco original. Por outro lado, essas duas traduções utilizam outras duas como texto base. A tradução de Portugal está baseada na tradução inglesa e a do Brasil na francesa. Por isso, o artigo também aborda, embora de maneira tangencial, a questão das traduções indiretas. Ao final pudemos perceber a predominância da domesticação no corpus estudado.
ASPECTOS CULTURAIS NA TRADUÇÃO PARA O PORTUGUÊS DE RINGS, DE ROSALEEN MCDONAGH
Authors: Bezerra do Nascimento Cristiane , Balduino Pires Fernandes Alinne , Kopschitz Bastos Beatriz 
Published: October 2022

Este artigo apresenta um recorte de um projeto de tradução da peça teatral Rings (2010), escrita pela dramaturga irlandesa Rosaleen McDonagh, para o português brasileiro. A peça retrata a relação entre dois personagens – Norah e seu pai – que pertencem a uma minoria étnica nômade irlandesa pouco conhecida no Brasil: os Travellers. O artigo analisa as estratégias de tradução adotadas para lidar com aspectos da cultura Traveller a partir do cotejo entre o texto de partida e sua tradução, com base nos conceitos de domesticação e estrangeirização cunhados por Lawrence Venuti (1995, [2019] 2022, no prelo) e desenvolvidos por Paulo Henriques Britto (2012). A tradução seguiu um caminho intermediário entre a estrangeirização e a domesticação, e o artigo discute as combinações das duas estratégias, com exemplos da tradução de Rings. Para descrever o processo de tradução, o artigo também se refere aos procedimentos técnicos de tradução propostos por Heloísa Barbosa (2020).
UMA COMPARAÇÃO DE ESTRATÉGIAS DE DOMESTICAÇÃO E ESTRANGEIRIZAÇÃO NA TRADUÇÃO LITERÁRIA
Authors: Hongze Song 
Published: October 2022

O presente trabalho propõe a comparação da aplicação de estratégias de domesticação e estrangeirização na tradução de romance, exemplificada com Adultério (2014) e Veronika decide morrer (2017), do escritor brasileiro Paulo Coelho, e as suas respectivas versões chinesas traduzidas por Zhang Jianbo e Min Xuefei. Existe sempre uma discussão acadêmica sobre as duas estratégias desde o início do nascimento da tradução como ciência. No entanto, hoje em dia parece que ainda não temos uma resposta definitiva ou satisfatória. A fim de discutir a temática referida, o trabalho se concentrará nas obras do escritor Paulo Coelho, que tem feito parte dos romances mais populares tanto no Brasil como no mercado chinês de literatura, a partir do conhecimento de Venuti e a teoria de traduto(meio)logia de Xie Zhentian.

Authors: Villanueva Meyli , Castro Américo 
Published: October 2022

El objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar la determinación de cadmio, cromo y plomo en Vaccinium corymbosum L. “arándano”, procedentes de un mercado y un supermercado ubicados en el distrito de Chorrillos-Lima. Por su condición, en el caso del mercado, las muestras fueron colectadas de cuatro puntos de venta, a fin de obtener una muestra representativa. En el caso del Supermercado, la muestra fue única. Mediante el método instrumental de espectrofotometría de absorción atómica se realizó la cuantificación de los metales pesados de cadmio, cromo y plomo, utilizándose el equipo Espectrofotómetro de absorción atómica. Se determinó concentraciones de <0.05; <0.05; 0.275 ug/gr en cadmio, cromo y plomo, respectivamente, en arándanos colectados de un supermercado y concentraciones de <0.05; 0.137; 0.288 ug/gr en cadmio, cromo y plomo, respectivamente, en arándanos colectados de un mercado. Los resultados obtenidos demuestran que existe menos concentración de plomo en arándanos colectados de un supermercado. Se concluye que las concentraciones de cadmio, cromo y plomo presentes en arándanos procedentes de un mercado y un supermercado de Chorrillos fueron menores a los valores establecidos por la Comisión Europea.

Published: October 2022

In this paper, we have given a presentation of the relativistic theory of asymmetric field. It is our aim to present a theory of gravitation and electomagnetism by a generalization of the concepts and mathematical methods of the general relativity. We look for the formally most simple expression for the law of gravitation in the absence of an electromagnetic field, and then the most natural generalization of this law. This theory contain Maxwell's theory in the Lambda transformation.

Published: October 2022

Objective: To verify D-dimer values to predict disease severity, degree of lung involvement and mortality in patients with COVID-19. Method: The D-dimer levels of 200 confirmed COVID-19 patients were prospectively measured in the Emergency Department of Razi Hospital of Ahvaz on the admission day, and its relations with the illness severity, computed tomography (CT) score, and mortality were assessed. Results: D-dimer level > 1.04 μg/mL and ≤ 1.12 μg/mL could indicate severe illness and high grade of pulmonary involvement but low risk of death. The mortality rate in the patients with D-dimer level > 1.12 μg/mL (was significantly higher than its rate in those with D-dimer level ≤ 1.12 μg/mL (17.2% x 1.5%; P:0.02). An independent positive correlation was found between D-dimer and Chest CT score as well as the disease severity (OR: 1.84; 95%CI:1.38 - 2.45; P:0.0001). Conclusion: D-dimer level > 1.12 μg/mL on the early stage of COVID-19 infection may independently predict the severe illness, high grade of pulmonary involvement, and high risk of death, indicating its beneficial role in timely management of critical patients.
Right of the “Above” and the “Below”. On the Border of Customary Law and Custom: The Legal Customs
Authors: Mezey Barna 
Published: October 2022

AbstractRecalling certain aspects of the research on Hungarian legal ethnography, the study deals with the relationship between law, customary law and legal custom. Customs of law is a significant field of law, inherited from the ancient legal order and created in the feudal-order society, which existed at the border of custom and formal law. The importance of the living conditions it governed gave rise to the institution of community coercion, which gave its rules a legal character. Eventually, it evolved in the “below” space left to it from the “above” and over time it acquired a tenacity that made it capable of maintaining a legal system in competition with the state, in response to a regulatory question not accepted by “official law.” The compliance and adherence to legal customs was based on the conviction of a community recognizing the need to adopt established rules and not on the competence, prestige, authority, legislative power and privilege of a legislative body.
Interactivity that matters
Authors: Tronstad Ragnhild 
Published: October 2022

Skilfully applied, interactivity is an ingredient that may boost engagement and enhance the performance experience of a young audience. However, it can also lead to confusion, banalization and even embarrassment. What are the parameters for interactivity to be experienced as meaningful, and when is it unproductive?
In this article I shall address how conceptions of artistic quality is challenged by contemporary practices of interactivity and audience participation in theatre for young audiences. The question will be discussed in relation to three performing arts productions presented in The Cultural Schoolbag (TCS): One participatory theatre performance and two interactive digital productions. The latter two were developed as part of Kulturtanken – Arts for Young Audiences Norway’s 3-year development project in digital mediation, FoNT (Formidling og Ny Teknologi/Mediation and New Technology). Equipped with theories of games and play, I shall discuss how the three projects succeed in presenting the kids with opportunities for meaningful interaction. I conclude by pointing out some of the parameters that are vital in order to provide meaningful interaction in performing arts aimed at a young audience – interactions that matter.

Published: October 2022

Abstract
Background: Passivity of an implant-supported restoration is fundamental for its long-term survival. The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy of interface fit of screw-retained implant-supported zirconia fixed partial denture with different abutment angulations.
Methods: 50 epoxy resin casts were randomly assigned into 5 groups (n=10) according to the implant placement angulations: group I; the casts received two non-tilted implants with two straight abutments, group II; the casts received a non-tilted implant with straight abutment and 17.5° tilted implant with 17.5° angled abutment, group III; the casts received a non-tilted implant with straight and 35°tilted implant with 35° angled abutment, group IV the casts received two 17.5-degree tilted implants with 17.5° angled abutments, and group V; the casts received two 35-degree tilted implants with 35° abutments. For each cast, a 3-unit zirconia fixed partial denture was fabricated. Titanium caps were bonded to corresponding zirconia fixed partial denture. For each specimen, the accuracy of fit was assessed by measuring the gap at the interface when one prosthetic screw was tightened, and when both prosthetic screws were tightened. The data were analyzed using Kruskal Wallis test followed by post-hoc dunn’s test (P<.05).
Results: When the canine prosthetic screw was tightened, the median of the gab at central interface showed statistical significant difference (P=.037) between studied groups. Also, a significant difference was revealed between Group I and Group III (P=.002), Group III and Group IV (P=.026), and Group IV and V (P=.035). When central prosthetic screw was tightened, the median of the gab at canine interface showed statistical significant difference (P=.02) between studied groups. Also, there was a significant difference between Group I and Group II (P=.001), Group I and Group III (P=.02), and Group I and V (P=.04). However, there were no significant differences between studied groups when both prosthetic screws were tightened.
Conclusions: The screw-retained zirconia fixed partial denture has interface fit within the clinical acceptable value regarding the precision of fit. The use of angled abutment endanger the accuracy of interface fit of screw-retained implant-supported zirconia fixed partial denture.
Variation of lightning-ignited wildfire patterns under climate change
Authors: Pérez-Invernón Francisco , Gordillo-Vázquez Francisco J. , Huntrieser Heidi , Jöckel Patrick 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
Lightning is the main precursor of natural wildfires and Long-Continuing-Current (LCC) lightning flashes are proposed to be the main igniters of lightning-ignited wildfires (LIW). Previous studies predict a change of the global occurrence rate and spatial pattern of total lightning. Nevertheless, the sensitivity of lightning-ignited wildfire occurrence to climate change is uncertain. Here, we investigate space-based measurements of LCC lightning associated with lightning ignitions and present LCC lightning projections (RCP6.0) for the 2090s by applying a new LCC lightning parameterization based on the updraft strength in thunderstorms. We find a 66 \% increase of the LCC lightning flash rate. Increases are largest in South America, the western coast of Northern America, Central America, Australia, Southern and Eastern Asia, and Europe, while only regional variations are found in northern polar forests, where fire risk can affect permafrost soil carbon release. These results show that lightning schemes including LCC lightning are needed to project the occurrence of lightning-ignited wildfires under climate change.

Abstract
Plants are often subjected to a broad range of environmental stresses such as drought, cold, salinity, heat, heavy metals, and other abiotic stresses. These stresses critically influence plant growth, development, and productivity. Among various abiotic stresses, cold (chilling or low temperature) is one of the major hindrances to crop productivity. In response to cold stress, plants have evolved various types of mechanisms that involve altered physiological, biochemical, and molecular processes to deal with cold stress. Advances in the fields of genetics and molecular biology have led to the development of various tools for the analysis of molecular networks involved in a certain trait. Nowadays, the advent of “OMICS” technology has been widely applied to understand the complex genetic nature of cold stress tolerance in plants. Being a complex trait, cold stress in plants is governed by more than one gene, including transcription factors that facilitate plants' survival in adverse conditions. In this review, we emphasize on the current understanding of molecular mechanisms for cold stress adaptation in plants. The roles of various transcription factors in plant adaptation and how they can be utilized for crop improvement are also discussed.
A study on the preparation and characterization of pigment quality from iron-containing waste materials
Authors: Touzi Nesrine , Horchani-Naifer Karima 
Published: October 2022

Abstract

Mill scale is an abundant solid waste from steel production. This material is a very valuable industrial waste due to its richness in iron (about 72% Fe), chemical stability and variable usage in multiple fields which implies that it can bring social and environmental benefits. This work aims to recover Mill scale and reuse it to synthesize three iron oxide pigments ; Hematite (α-Fe2O3, red color), Magnetite (Fe3O4, black color) and Maghemite (γ-Fe2O3, brown color).To achieve this objective, Mill scale needs to be refined and granted to react with sulfuric acid to obtain ferrous sulfate FeSO4.xH2O which is used to produce Hematite by calcination between 600 and 900°C, then, Magnetite by reduction of hematite using a reducing agent at 400°C and Maghemite from a thermal treatment of magnetite at 200°C.It was shown within the experiments that the mill scale contains between 75% and 86.66% of Fe and a uniform distribution of particles size with a low Span. That gave red particles size (0.18–0.193 µm) and specific surface area SSA: 6.12 m2/g, black particles sizes (0.2–0.3 µm) and SSA 4.92 m2/g, brown particles size (0.18–0.189 µm) and SSA 6.32 m2/g. The results revealed that the mill scale was successfully converted into pigments with good qualities.
