description: What is our opening upon the world? What is the relationship between this opening - its tactility, depth and reach - and the language with which we seek to express it? Poetry and philosophy are frequently considered in opposition, but here, pushing up against the limits and possibilities of expression, in the face of 'raw' perception, they speak of a common opening upon experience. Both disciplines begin in a sense of wonder that we find ourselves in a meaningful world, and each takes the exploration of that 'meaning' to be the first question of existence. Their divergence, and the manifold paths that proliferate within each individual discipline, arrives in how this question is unfolded and engaged. -- Although the opposition between the disciplines is an ancient one, one that continues to this day, some theorists do attempt to merge these genres, and in fact see the possibilities of exploring this phenomenological opening as existing only within the coupling of the two. This thesis will look at how such a coupling is theorised in Jena Romanticism, and examine the way in which it is formulated and executed in two of the 20th Century's most original and important thinkers, Martin Heidegger and Maurice Merleau-Ponty. The central question is why, in the responses offered by both these philosophers, modes of 'indirect' expression are frequently privileged over more 'direct' logico-discursive language. The inquiry will be engaged thematically and in the linguistic form of the work itself.

description: To study the interfacial activities of zwitterionic surfactant against crude oil, four alkyl hydroxyl sulfobetaines were synthesized. The effects of surfactant structure, concentration, salinity of formation water, and crude oil composition on interfacial activities were discussed. It shows that the octadecyl hydroxyl sulfobetaine can achieve ultralow interfacial tension at the concentrations no less than 0.001%, exhibiting a good interfacial activity and a very strong antidilution ability. The salinity of formation water has no obvious effect on lowering the interfacial tension and the polar component in crude oil is very crucial for the production of ultralow interfacial tension. This work is important for enhanced oil recovery.

description: To date, no methodology or model has been applied to determine confidence in decisions made about treaty compliance based on monitoring and verification (M&V) applied to arms control scenarios and only few academic research papers have put forth modeling frameworks. In this work, we build upon published research methods in Saaty (1968), Beaumont et al. (2015), Mathews et al. (2020), and Perkins et al. (2015), and our experience with statistical methodology and systems modeling to develop such confidence models. The resulting algorithms provide confidence in treaty adherence, given observations from M&V technologies and systems of technologies using a Bayesian network approach paired with discrete event simulation of a nuclear enterprise. We define nodes within the network as individual M&V processes that result in data and network edges represent conditional dependencies between them. We develop confidence metrics and statements for notional scenarios. The model is evaluated and tuned using simulated ‘truth’ data to determine how ‘good’ the confidence estimates are and how sensitive they are to the model specification and parameter settings. Sensitivity studies demonstrate how changes in technology performance and M&V parameters, such as time spent for a given measurement and invasiveness of a particular technology, affect confidence

description: Objective: To estimate per-event cost and economic burden associated with managing the most common and/or severe metastatic melanoma (MM) treatment-related adverse events (AEs) in Australia, France, Germany, Italy, and the UK. Methods: AEs associated with chemotherapy (dacarbazine, paclitaxel, fotemustine), immunotherapy (ipilimumab), and targeted therapy (vemurafenib) were identified by literature review. Medical resource use data associated with managing AEs were collected through two blinded Delphi panel cycles in each of the five countries. Published costs were used to estimate per-event costs and combined with AEs incidence, treatment usage, and MM prevalence to estimate the economic burden for each country. Results: The costliest AEs were grade 3/4 events due to immunotherapy (Australia/France: colitis; UK: diarrhea) and chemotherapy (Germany/Italy: neutropenia/leukopenia). Treatment of AEs specific to chemotherapy (Australia/Germany/Italy/France: neutropenia/leukopenia) and targeted therapy (UK: squamous cell carcinoma) contributed heavily to country-specific economic burden. Limitations: Economic burden was estimated assuming that each patient experienced an AE only once. In addition, the context of settings was heterogeneous and the number of Delphi panel experts was limited. Conclusions: Management costs for MM treatment-associated AEs can be substantial. Results could be incorporated in economic models that support reimbursement dossiers. With the availability of newer treatments, establishment of a baseline measure of the economic burden of AEs will be crucial for assessing their impact on patients and regional healthcare systems.

description: Cavity correlation functions, pair correlation functions, and bridge functions for the Lennard-Jones fluid are calculated from first Percus–Yevick (PY) theory and second-order Percus– Yevick (PY2) theory, molecular dynamics, and grand canonical Monte Carlo techniques. We find that the PY2 theory is significantly more accurate than the PY theory, especially at high density and near the critical point. The pair correlation function near the critical point has the expected slowly decaying long-range behaviour. However, we do not observe any long-range behaviour in the bridge function for the state points near the critical point we have simulated. However, we do note that the bridge function, which is usually negative near r = 0, becomes positive as r → 0. This behaviour is seen for the bridge functions computed from both PY2 and molecular dynamics, but not from PY.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: Sterilization of implants and other clinical accessories is an integral part of any medical application. Although many materials are used as implants, polyethylene stands unique owing to its versatility. Carbon nanotubes are being used as a filler material to enhance the properties of polyethylene. However, the role of multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as an effective antioxidant and radical scavenger in resisting the deteriorating effects of sterilization is yet to be studied in detail. The present work is aimed to investigate the mechanical properties and oxidation stability of irradiated high density polyethylene (HDPE) reinforced by MWCNTs with various concentrations such as 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75% and 1.00 wt.%. The composites were exposed to 60Co source in air and irradiated at different dosage level starting from 25 to 100 kGy and then shelf aged for a period of 120 days prior to investigation. The loss in toughness, Young’s modulus and ultimate strength at 100 kGy for 1 wt.% MWCNTs composite were found to be 21.5%, 20.3% and 19.2%, respectively compared to that of unirradiated composite. FTIR and ESR studies confirmed the antioxidant and radical scavenging potentialities of MWCNTs with increased concentration and irradiation dosage. It was found that by the addition of 1 wt.% MWCNTs into virgin HDPE, the oxidation index of the composite at 100 kGy was decreased by 56.2%. It is concluded that the addition of MWCNTs into polyethylene not only limits the loss of mechanical properties but also improves its post irradiation oxidative stability.

description: Pancreatic islets are richly vascularized, and islet blood vessels are uniquely adapted to maintain and support the internal milieu of the islets favoring normal endocrine function. Islet blood flow is normally very high compared with that to the exocrine pancreas and is autonomously regulated through complex interactions between the nervous system, metabolites from insulin secreting β-cells, endothelium-derived mediators, and hormones. The islet blood flow is normally coupled to the needs for insulin release and is usually disturbed during glucose intolerance and overt diabetes. The present review provides a brief background on islet vascular function and especially focuses on available techniques to measure islet blood perfusion. The gold standard for islet blood flow measurements in experimental animals is the microsphere technique, and its advantages and disadvantages will be discussed. In humans there are still no methods to measure islet blood flow selectively, but new developments in radiological techniques hold great hopes for the future.

description: 1. The emerging technique of employing intravenous microdose administration of an isotope tracer concomitantly with an [14C]-labeled oral dose was used to characterize the disposition and absolute bioavailability of a novel metabotropic glutamate 5 (mGlu5) receptor antagonist under clinical development for major depressive disorder (MDD). 2. Six healthy volunteers received a single 1 mg [12C/14C]-basimglurant (2.22 MBq) oral dose and a concomitant i.v. tracer dose of 100 μg of [13C6]-basimglurant. Concentrations of [12C]-basimglurant and the stable isotope [13C6]-basimglurant were determined in plasma by a specific LC/MS-MS method. Total [14C] radioactivity was determined in whole blood, plasma, urine and feces by liquid scintillation counting. Metabolic profiling was conducted in plasma, urine, blood cell pellet and feces samples. 3. The mean absolute bioavailability after oral administration (F) of basimglurant was ∼67% (range 45.7–77.7%). The major route of [14C]-radioactivity excretion, primarily in form of metabolites, was in urine (mean recovery 73.4%), with the remainder excreted in feces (mean recovery 26.5%). The median tmax for [12C]-basimglurant after the oral administration was 0.71 h (range 0.58–1.00) and the mean terminal half-life was 77.2 ± 38.5 h. Terminal half-life for the [14C]-basimglurant was 178 h indicating presence of metabolites with a longer terminal half-life. Five metabolites were identified with M1-Glucuronide as major and the others in trace amounts. There was minimal binding of drug to RBCs. IV pharmacokinetics was characterized with a mean ± SD CL of 11.8 ± 7.4 mL/h and a Vss of 677 ± 229 L. 4. The double-tracer technique used in this study allowed to simultaneously characterize the absolute bioavailability and disposition characteristics of the new oral molecular entity in a single study.
Effect of multi-walled carbon nanotubes reinforcement and gamma irradiation on viscoelastic properties of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene

subject: FOS: Medical engineering

description: Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) has been used as a surface for acetabular in total joint replacements for the past 60 years. However, the performance of the implant is influenced by the increase in temperature because of the articulating motion and the contact asperities, which affects its longevity. The viscoelastic properties of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) reinforced UHMWPE nanocomposites with respect to temperature and irradiation dose are not reported so far. Hence, an attempt was made to study the viscoelastic properties of UHMWPE by varying concentration of MWCNTs and intensity of irradiation dose. The test samples were subjected to sinusoidal loading in the temperature range of 30–80°C. Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene nanocomposites were prepared at different concentrations of MWCNTs such as 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2 wt-% using compression moulding process and the nanocomposites were subjected to 60Co gamma irradiation up to 100 kGy dose. The viscoelastic characteristics of UHMWPE, such as storage modulus, loss moduls and damping factor of the irradiated nanocomposites, were studied in detail. It was observed that the storage modulus of the pure UHMWPE was increased by 139% with the addition of 2 wt-% MWCNTs; however, it was found to be reduced by 83% with 100 kGy irradiation doses. The damping factor and loss modulus of the nanocomposites were reduced by 27.3 and 71.6% with 2 wt-% of MWCNTs concentration, but both were increased with 100 kGy irradiation dose by 74.7 and 69% compared to virgin UHMWPE. It is concluded that the storage modulus reduced with the increase in temperature and also irradiation dose, which may lead to higher static deformation of material. However, the presence of MWCNTs would minimise the deformation and pave way for the better functionality of the material.

description: Crosslinking of UHMWPE by gamma irradiation has been the prime choice to improve the wear resistance of the polymer. However, it is always associated with few setbacks like degradation of material properties during the shelf ageing period. In the present work, nanocomposites were prepared using ball milling process and then compression moulding process where UHMWPE was reinforced by MWCNTs with 0.20 and 0.40 wt. %. The samples were gamma irradiated using 60Co at 25 and 50 kGy sterilizing doses in air without any post irradiative treatments and then shelf aged for 240 days. The mechanical properties of the composites were studied using small punch technique according to ASTM F2183 standards. Both toughness and hardness of the composites were found to be improved with an increase of irradiation dosage and MWCNT concentration. It is observed that the percentage reduction in Young’s modulus, yield stress and % strain at fracture of 0.4% composite at 50 kGy dose are 6.4%, 8.8% and 12.7%, respectively compared to that of virgin UHMWPE irradiated at same dosage. It is concluded that presence of MWCNTs in UHMWPE prevents the degradation of material properties during the shelf ageing period after irradiation.

description: Mithilfe des Fragebogens können Lehrkräfte, pädagogisches Personal und ErzieherInnen das häusliche Umfeld in Bezug auf die Unterstützung und Zusammenarbeit mit der Schule ermitteln. Ein gegenseitiges Verständnis und eine enge Zusammenarbeit ist das pädagogische Ziel. Jedoch gibt es neben unterstützenden Faktoren auch belastende Faktoren in und außerhalb der Schule, welche Lernschwierigkeiten und Probleme in der Schule begünstigen. Um diese Faktoren zu dokumentieren, reflektieren PädagogInnen das häusliche Umfeld des Kindes zu einem Zeitpunkt, vergleichen ihre Einschätzungen und können so didaktische Handlungen und pädagogische Konzepte auch an die Umwelt des Kindes anpassen und entwickeln. Der Fragebogen dient als Grundlage für Teamgespräche und der Zusammenarbeit mit der Schulsozialarbeit.

description: The goal of this study was to define the effect on hip contact forces of including subject-specific moment generating capacity in the musculoskeletal model by scaling isometric muscle strength and by including geometrical information in control subjects, hip osteoarthritis and total hip arthroplasty patients. Scaling based on dynamometer measurements decreased the strength of all flexor and abductor muscles. This resulted in a model that lacked the capacity to generate joint moments required during functional activities. Scaling muscle forces based on functional activities and inclusion of MRI-based geometrical detail did not compromise the model strength and resulted in hip contact forces comparable to previously reported measured contact forces.

description: Altholactone exhibited the anti-fungal activity with a high MIC value of 128 μg ml−1 against Cryptococcus neoformans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Fifteen ester derivatives of altholactone 1–15 were modified by esterification and their structures were confirmed by spectroscopic methods. Most of the ester derivatives exhibited stronger anti-fungal activities than that of the precursor altholactone. 3-Bromo- and 2,4-dichlorobenzoates (7 and 15) exhibited the lowest minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values against C. neoformans at 16 μg ml−1, while the 4-bromo-, 4-iodo-, and 1-bromo-3-chlorobenzoates (11–13) displayed potent activity against S. cerevisiae with MIC values of 1 μg ml−1. In conclusion, this analysis indicates that the anti-fungal activity of altholactone is enhanced by addition of halogenated benzoyl group to the 3-OH group.

description: In the April 2022 afrimapr community meetup,, Anne Treasure showcased a data pipeline developed for reading data from a Google Form & Spreadsheet to visualise via interactive web apps: R Shiny and Kumu. We looked at steps for setting up non-interactive authorisations to enable automation and integrating with Google Spreadsheets. The workflow is automated using GitHub Actions. The workflow is currently under development for the ESCALATOR programme (https://escalator.sadilar.org) and forms part of the South African Digital Humanities and Computational Social Sciences Stakeholder Map project (https://escalator.sadilar.org/stakeholder-map/). To learn more about the workflow or ESCALATOR programme, please contact Anelda van der Walt (escalator@talarify.co.za) or Anne Treasure (dhcss-stakeholdermap@talarify.co.za) afrimapr’s monthly virtual meetups aim to support the development of an active African R mapping community. It offers you a chance to learn about new resources, ask questions, showcase your work, and grow your R mapping network.

description: Seed is a fundamental resource required for arable agriculture. Seed as an input is critical for enhancing value, productivity and resilience in African agriculture. Sustainable seed systems enable availability, access and quality of seed and thus of new and continuously improving varieties for farmers and users of the crops. Improvements to seed systems are expected to produce wide-ranging and growing benefits along the entire value chain. Enhancing the sustainability of seed systems may involve a broad range of actors including plant breeders, certification agencies, seed companies, grain processors as well as farmers.
