RESHAPING COLLECTIVE MEMORIES: TRAUMA AND GUILT IN THE FILMIC ADAPTATION OF «GEBÜRTIG»
Creators: name: Simões, Anabela Valente
Publisher: name: POLISSEMA – Revista de Letras do ISCAP
Year: 2019

description: The present essay aims at discussing the topic of post-memory of World War II by individuals who formed their identity after the end of this historical landmark. Bearing this objective in mind, a reflection upon the influence of the different types of memory in the process of identity formation shall be proposed and it will be contended that both memories formed upon the subject’s experiences as well as second-hand, intermediated, inherited memories from the past –memories transmitted either symbolically or by elder members of the group –, deeply influence the elaboration of a subject’s identitary map. This theoretical framework will be subsequently illustrated with examples taken from the cinematographic adaptation of Gebürtig, a novel written by the Jewish Austrian author Robert Schindel.

description: We proposed, in our previous paper, to characterize the Hirota-Miwa equation by means of the theory of triangulated category. We extend our argument in this paper to support the idea. In particular we show in detail how the singularity confinement, a phenomenon which was proposed to characterize integrable maps, can be associated with the projective resolution of the triangulated category.

description: The european Fazia collaboration aims at building a new modular array for charged product identification to be employed for heavy-ion studies. The elementary module of the array is a Silicon-Silicon-CsI telescope, optimized for ion identification also via pulse shape analysis. The achievement of top performances imposes specific electronics which has been developed by FAZIA and features high quality charge and current preamplifiers, coupled to fully digital front-end. During the initial R&D phase, original and novel solutions have been tested in prototypes, obtaining unprecedented ion identification capabilities. FAZIA is now constructing a demonstrator array consisting of about two hundreds telescopes arranged in a compact and transportable configuration. In this contribution, we mainly summarize some aspects studied by FAZIA to improve the ion identification. Then we will briefly discuss the FAZIA program centered on experiments to be done with the demonstrator. First results on the isospin dynamics obtained with a reduced set-up demonstrate well the performance of the telescope and represent a good starting point towards future investigations with both stable and exotic beams.

description: Background: Vaccination against tumor-associated antigens is one promising approach to immunotherapy against malignant gliomas. While previous vaccine efforts have focused exclusively on HLA class I-restricted peptides, class II-restricted peptides are necessary to induce CD4+ helper T cells and sustain effective anti-tumor immunity. In this report we investigated the ability of five candidate peptide epitopes derived from glioma-associated antigens MAGE and IL-13 receptor α2 to detect and characterize CD4+ helper T cell responses in the peripheral blood of patients with malignant gliomas. Methods: Primary T cell responses were determined by stimulating freshly isolated PBMCs from patients with primary glioblastoma (GBM) (n = 8), recurrent GBM (n = 5), meningioma (n = 7), and healthy controls (n = 6) with each candidate peptide, as well as anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody (mAb) and an immunodominant peptide epitope derived from myelin basic protein (MBP) serving as positive and negative controls, respectively. ELISA was used to measure IFN-γ and IL-5 levels, and the ratio of IFN-γ/IL-5 was used to determine whether the response had a predominant Th1 or Th2 bias. Results: We demonstrate that novel HLA Class-II restricted MAGE-A3 and IL-13Rα2 peptides can detect T cell responses in patients with GBMs as well as in healthy subjects. Stimulation with a variety of peptide antigens over-expressed by gliomas is associated with a profound reduction in the IFN-γ/IL-5 ratio in GBM patients relative to healthy subjects. This bias is more pronounced in patients with recurrent GBMs. Conclusions: Therapeutic vaccine strategies to shift tumor antigen-specific T cell response to a more immunostimulatory Th1 bias may be needed for immunotherapeutic trials to be more successful clinically.

description: We consider a system of $N$ particles on the real line that evolves through iteration of the following steps: 1) every particle splits into two, 2) each particle jumps according to a prescribed displacement distribution supported on the positive reals and 3) only the $N$ right-most particles are retained, the others being removed from the system. This system has been introduced in the physics literature as an example of a microscopic stochastic model describing the propagation of a front. Its behavior for large $N$ is now well understood -- both from a physical and mathematical viewpoint -- in the case where the displacement distribution admits exponential moments. Here, we consider the case of displacements with regularly varying tails, where the relevant space and time scales are markedly different. We characterize the behavior of the system for two distinct asymptotic regimes. First, we prove convergence in law of the rescaled positions of the particles on a time scale of order $\log N$ and give a construction of the limit based on the records of a space-time Poisson point process. Second, we determine the appropriate scaling when we let first the time horizon, then $N$ go to infinity.

description: An interesting feature of growth in animals is that different parts of the body grow at approximately the same rate. This property is called proportionate growth. In this paper, we review our recent work on patterns formed by adding $N$ grains at a single site in the abelian sandpile model. These simple models show very intricate patterns, show proportionate growth, and sometimes having a striking resemblance to natural forms. We give several examples of such patterns. We discuss the special cases where the asymptotic pattern can be determined exactly. The effect of noise in the background or in the rules on the patterns is also discussed.

Alexander (1931b) apparently had access to a female specimen of M. (M.) bawbawiensis however only provided a description of the male, with no accompanying figure of the hypopygium. In a review of Australian Molophilus by Theischinger (1992) a figure of the hypopygium was provided but, in the absence of additional material, the female remained undescribed. It is only now, with the collection of fresh material, that a description of the remarkable female of this species is possible. Female. Size and coloration much the same as in male. Ovipositor (Fig 3) with tenth tergite greatly elongate, extending up to 1.5 mm, with a membranous area on the ventrolateral edge at about half the length of the tergite. Cercus straight and narrow, bluntly tipped and approximately 0.5 mm long. Sternite 9 not especially elongate, with a membranous area along the dorsal edge.Apex of hypogynial valve reaching just past the origin of the cercus. Discussion. The highly modified ovipositor of M. (M.) bawbawiensis with greatly elongate tenth tergite seems unique among the species of Australian Molophilus, although it must be noted that females are not yet known or associated for many species.

Hierarchical Dirichlet process model for gene expression clustering

Subjects: subject: Genetics

description: Clustering is an important data processing tool for interpreting microarray data and genomic network inference. In this article, we propose a clustering algorithm based on the hierarchical Dirichlet processes (HDP). The HDP clustering introduces a hierarchical structure in the statistical model which captures the hierarchical features prevalent in biological data such as the gene express data. We develop a Gibbs sampling algorithm based on the Chinese restaurant metaphor for the HDP clustering. We apply the proposed HDP algorithm to both regulatory network segmentation and gene expression clustering. The HDP algorithm is shown to outperform several popular clustering algorithms by revealing the underlying hierarchical structure of the data. For the yeast cell cycle data, we compare the HDP result to the standard result and show that the HDP algorithm provides more information and reduces the unnecessary clustering fragments.

description: In the framework of the isospin-dependent Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck transport model, effects of the symmetry energy on the evolutions of free n/p ratio and charged pion ratio in the semi-central collision of $^{197}$Au+$^{197}$Au at an incident beam energy of 400 MeV/nucleon are studied. At the beginning of the reaction (before 11 fm/c) they are both affected by the low-density behavior of the symmetry energy but soon after are affected by the high-density behavior of the symmetry energy after nuclei are compressed (after 11 fm/c) and the effects of the symmetry energy are generally smaller compared with the central collision case. Interestingly, their dependences on the symmetry energy are shown to arise with increase of cone-azimuthal angle of the emitted particles. In the direction perpendicular to the reaction plane, the $π^{-}/π^{+}$ ratio or free n/p ratio especially at high kinetic energies exhibits significant sensitivity to the symmetry energy.

This species was previously known only from male specimens, first described by Alexander (1929) then revised and figured by Theischinger (1992), the collection of fresh material now allows for description of the female. In many cases the female forms of Molophilus species remain unassociated, and even when pairs are found in copula the female often lacks significant characters for reliable morphological distinction between species. However, M. (M.) opulus, like M. (M.) bawbawiensis discussed above, has been found to show such unique modification of the ovipositor that it is readily distinguished from other female Molophilus and warrants description.

Improving flight efficiency and reducing emissions through demand-capacity balancing in European ATM

description: Purpose Many flights in Europe today are routed on longer routes either due to capacity shortages in the network or because Airspace Users (AUs) choose longer routes to avoid countries with high en-route charges. We analyse how better demand-capacity balancing of ATM can reduce detours and hence emissions. Approach We model the effects of two demand-capacity balancing mechanisms: network-oriented capacities and trajectory-independent ATM charges. The idea is that capacity decisions, which consider both network effects and emissions, reduce capacity shortages in the system, and thus also unnecessary re-routings. Also, if AUs pay ATM charges that are independent of flight path, they choose the most fuel-efficient and environmentally-friendly route. We test both mechanisms in a case study with 4000 flights. Findings We find that network-oriented capacities can reduce emissions from detours by 64%, with an increase in capacity cost of just 5%. We also find that current en-route airspace charges create around 320k tons of additional CO2 per year from detours of intra-European flights alone, which could be avoided by using trajectory-independent ATM charges. Such a charging scheme would need to be accompanied by changes in capacity that reflect the shift in demand towards shorter trajectories. Contribution Our research complements existing studies on trajectory optimization (which focuses on airborne flights) by evaluating how better capacity and demand decisions in the planning phase of ATM impact flight efficiency and emissions. In contrast to existing research, we include capacity constraints in the network when modeling the routing of flights. We also extend the methodology for ATM capacity planning by including emission cost in the decision. Finally, we formulate clear policy implications.

description: Intensities of hydrogen Balmer-series lines are sensitive to distribution of populations of sublevels of excited state due to difference of radiative decay branching ratio for sublevels with different orbital quantum number. Since these sublevels are degenerate transitions between sublevels and mixing of its population may be caused by very weak action of environment. A beam of fast hydrogen atoms is a system in which these fine effects of population mixing can be observed. Experimental data of H-alpha line radiation intensities in hydrogen neutral beams are compared with calculations assumed different models of sublevel population. The comparison most probably point out that population mixing effects cause transitions from long-lived 3s to 3p sublevel with corresponding changes in H-alpha radiation intensities. Discussed effects may influence to results of Doppler-shift spectroscopy measurements of the neutral beam parameters such as species and impurities content and neutralizing efficiency.

description: Epitaxially grown quantum dots (QDs) are promising sources of non-classical states of light such as single photons and entangled photons. However, in order for them to be used as a resource for long-distance quantum communication, distributed quantum computation, or linear optics quantum computing, these photons must be coupled efficiently to long-lived quantum memories as part of a quantum repeater network. Here, we theoretically examine the prospects for efficient storage and retrieval of a QD-generated single photon with a 1 ns lifetime in a multi-level atomic system. We calculate using an experimentally demonstrated optical depth of 150 that the storage (total) efficiency can exceed 46% (28%) in a dense, ultracold ensemble of $^{87}$Rb atoms. Furthermore, we find that the optimal control pulse required for storage and retrieval can be obtained using a diode laser and an electro-optic modulator rather than a mode-locked, pulsed laser source. Increasing the optical depth, for example by using Bose-condensed ensembles or an optical cavity, can increase the efficiencies to near unity. Aside from enabling a high-speed quantum network based on QDs, such an efficient optical interface between an atomic ensemble and a QD can also lead to entanglement between collective spin-wave excitations of atoms and the spin of an electron or hole confined in the QD.

description: If we adopt a supervaluational semantics for vagueness, what sort of logic results? As it turns out, the answer depends crucially on how the standard notion of validity as truth preservation is recasted. There are several ways of doing that within a supervaluational framework, the main alternative being between ‘global’ construals (e.g., an argument is valid if and only if it preserves truth-under-all-precisifications) and ‘local’ construals (an argument is valid if and only if, under all precisifications, it preserves truth). The former alternative is by far more popular, but I argue in favour of the latter, for one, it does not suffer from a number of serious objections, and two, it makes it possible to restore global validity as a defined notion.

description: O principal objetivo deste artigo é analisar as protagonistas femininas do livro “Crônicas do Mal de Amor”, da italiana Elena Ferrante, como exemplos que ilustram o rompimento do imaginário comum sobre as mulheres, questionado com a sua “identidade natural”. Elena escreve as suas personagens em conflito constante com os processos discursivos dominantes que se concretizam pela repetição de atos performativos socioculturais. Além de mostrar a relevância de uma literatura que problematiza a subjetividade das mulheres numa atualidade em que o “ser-mulher” continua engessado dentro de um senso comum, ou daquilo que Judith Butler chamou de “performatividade de gênero”, tal trabalho visa a ilustrar de que modo a escrita de Ferrante dramatiza o “real” e tenta subverter e conflituar a inteligibilidade do gênero “feminino” sobretudo pelos conflitos ligados à maternidade e à noção do binarismo heteronormativo patriarcal complementar que sustenta a superioridade masculina na esfera pública.

description: In the recent years Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANET) became one of the most challenging research area in the field of Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET). Vehicles in VANET send emergency and safety periodic messages through one control channel having a limited bandwidth, which causes a growing collision to the channel especially in dense traffic situations. In this paper a protocol Particle swarm optimization Beacon Power Control (PBPC) is proposed, which makes dynamic transmission power control to adjust the transmission power of the safety periodic messages that have been aggressively sent by all vehicles on the road 10 times per a second, the proposed protocol aims to decrease the packet collision resulted from periodic safety messages, which leads to control the load on the channel while ensuring a high probability of message reception within the safety distance of the sender vehicle.

Sample is 205 diabetic and non-diabetic participants over 18 years underwent abdominal surgery between 2016 and 2021 in Saudi Arabia. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data. Results: Regarding SSI, diabetic patients reported 27% wound erythema, 25% wound pain, and 24% wound pus. It was discovered that 34.1% of patients with poor wound healing,50% of individuals identified with DVT as a postoperative consequence,32.35% with UTI, 54.6% confirmed cases of post-operative incisional hernias, and 42.85% of patients with metabolic acidosis all of them were having diabetes millets. Regarding thrombophlebitis, 28.6% of patients with limb erythema and 21.1 percent of patients with hot and painful limbs were diabetics. Regarding bowel obstruction, only 23.68 percent of patients with acute stomach pain, 28 percent of patients with sudden vomiting, and 22.58 percent of patients with chronic constipation with gas retention had diabetes. Conclusion: DVT, UTI, and incisional hernia have all been found to be more common post-operative problems among diabetics. There was a modest difference in wound healing, wound infection, intestinal obstruction, thrombophlebitis, and metabolic acidosis between diabetics and non-diabetics.

description: Siamo realmente solo umani? Negli ultimi 10 anni la ricerca biomedica ha svelato come nel nostro corpo vivano un numero di cellule microbiche 10 volte superiori a quelle umane, capaci di esprimere circa 8 milioni di geni, pari all’1-3% della nostra massa corporea. Il microbiota che colonizza il nostro corpo gioca un ruolo centrale in molti processi fondamentali, sia fisiologici che patologici. Il turbinoso sviluppo tecnologie di sequenziamento NGS e della metagenomica ci sta facendo comprendere sempre meglio il ruolo cruciale del microbiota e le dinamiche della sua interazione con l’organismo umano.

Billingham & G. Theischinger, AM (K.394960). Description ♂ (♀ unknown). Head: pale whitish yellow, antennal pedicel and scape pale whitish yellow, antennal flagellum with basal segments pale whitish yellow, terminal segments darkening to greyish brown, palpus dark greyish brown. Antenna extending back to prescutal pit. Thorax. Pronotum whitish. Prescutum, scutum, scutellum and mediotergite pale whitish yellow. Cervical sclerite and pleurites pale whitish yellow. Coxae, trochanters, femora and tibiae pale whitish yellow, tarsi greyish brown to black. Wing hyaline with veins pale yellowish brown. Halter with stem pale whitish yellow, knob white. Abdomen: pale whitish yellow. Terminalia (Fig. 12). Hypopygium pale whitish yellow with lobe of tergite 9 wide, rather quadrate, caudal margin straight. Gonocoxite with dorsolateral lobe very small, medial lobe not prominent and ventral lobe large, largely parallel sided and apically strongly bowed mediad, ending in a strongly hooked beak. Inner gonostylus long, faintly curving laterally, when viewed ventrally the tip appearing to curve mediad, with the mesal face finely serrate, when viewed laterally the tip ventrally flanged, giving it a spatulate appearance. Outer gonostylus largely parallel sided, with apex forked into two prongs, the outer prong larger than the inner. Aedeagus thin and of moderate length, parameres fused, oval to truncate. Dimensions. Body length 3.8 mm, wing length 4.1 mm. Etymology. This species is named for the Chichester forest region of New South Wales whence it was collected. Discussion. Molophilus (M.) chichester is allied to numerous morphologically similar species around M. (M.) flavidellus Alexander, 1930 (see Theischinger 1992 for more details on these species). It can be distinguished from all of these species by the curved spatulate inner gonostylus.

description: Background: Experimental animal studies and one population-based study have suggested an increased risk for adverse neurodevelopmental outcome after prenatal exposure to SSRIs. We describe the methods and design of a population-based study examining the association between prenatal SSRI exposure and neurodevelopment until age 14. Methods and design: This is a cohort study of national registers in Finland: the Medical Birth Register, the Register of Congenital Malformations, the Hospital Discharge Register including inpatient and outpatient data, the Drug Reimbursement Register, and the Population Register. The total study population includes 845,345 women and their live-born, singleton offspring aged 14 or younger and born during Jan 1st 1996-Dec 31st 2010. We will compare the prevalence of psychiatric and neurodevelopmental outcomes in offspring exposed prenatally to SSRIs to offspring exposed to prenatal depression and unexposed to SSRIs. Associations between exposure and outcome are assessed by statistical methods including specific modeling to account for correlated outcomes within families and differences in duration of follow-up between the exposure groups. Descriptive results. Of all pregnant women with pregnancy ending in delivery (n = 859,359), 1.9% used SSRIs. The prevalence of diagnosed depression and depression-related psychiatric disorders within one year before or during pregnancy was 1.7%. The cumulative incidence of registered psychiatric or neurodevelopmental disorders was 6.9% in 2010 among all offspring born during the study period (age range 0–14 years). Discussion: The study has the potential for significant public health importance in providing information on prenatal exposure to SSRIs and long-term neurodevelopment.

description: In this paper we will describe a curriculum of Rhetoric included in a Business Communication Undergraduate Program Studies at ISCAP. This curriculum includes the designing of arguments and the identification of fallacies applied to the industries of persuasion and to social media, analyzing how the success of brands depends upon the use of a strategic communication, where rhetoric plays an important role. It also emphasizes the importance of teaching and exploring the ethos, pathos and logos theory for building cogent arguments in a social media context. In addition, based on the new communication model done via various electronic formats, and considering that the internet and social media have “changed the way communicate, turning writing into conversation”, we will reflect on Paul Graham’s hierarchy of disagreement, proposing a new pyramid for ad hominem fallacies. Finally, we draw a basic collection of competencies, in order to become a more effective writer and communicator in a digitally mediated space.

description: We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of "conservation laws" on null hypersurfaces for the wave equation on general four-dimensional Lorentzian manifolds. Examples of null hypersurfaces exhibiting such conservation laws include the standard null cones of Minkowski spacetime and the degenerate horizons of extremal black holes. Another (limiting) example of such a conservation law is that which gives rise to the well-known Newman-Penrose constants along the null infinity of asymptotically flat spacetimes. The existence of such conservation laws can be viewed as an obstruction to a certain gluing construction for characteristic initial data for the wave equation. We initiate the general study of the latter gluing problem and show that the existence of conservation laws is in fact the only obstruction. Our method relies on a novel elliptic structure associated to a foliation with 2-spheres of a null hypersurface.

Terminalia (Fig. 13). Hypopygium pale whitish yellow with lobe of tergite 9 quadrate, caudal margin straight. Gonocoxite with ventral lobe large, edges broadly rounded and apically strongly bowed mediad, ending in a dark strongly hooked beak. Inner gonostylus about ⅔ the length of the ventral lobe, mostly straight, with three spines towards the tip; one terminal, long and faintly curving medially, one long, faintly hooked on the dorsal edge, one short, appressed on the face of the style. Outer gonostylus largely parallel sided, with apex forked into two mostly even prongs. Aedeagus long and thin. Dimensions. Body length 4 mm, wing length 4.5 mm. Etymology. This species is named with reference to the threespined tip of the inner gonostylus. Discussion. Molophilus (M.) trispina is allied to numerous morphologically similar species around M. (M.) flavidellus Alexander, 1930 (see Theischinger 1992 for more details on these species). It can be distinguished from all of these species by the tip of the inner gonostylus, which bears three distinct spines.

description: Background: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating anxiety disorder. Surveys of the general population suggest that while 50-85% of Americans will experience a traumatic event in their lifetime, only 2-50% will develop PTSD. Why some individuals develop PTSD following trauma exposure while others remain resilient is a central question in the field of trauma research. For more than half a century, the role of genetic influences on PTSD has been considered as a potential vulnerability factor. However, despite the exponential growth of molecular genetic studies over the past decade, limited progress has been made in identifying true genetic variants for PTSD. Methods: In an attempt to aid future genome wide association studies (GWAS), this paper presents a systematic review of 28 genetic association studies of PTSD. Inclusion criteria required that 1) all participants were exposed to Criterion A traumatic events, 2) polymorphisms of relevant genes were genotyped and assessed in relation to participants’ PTSD status, 3) quantitative methods were used, and 4) articles were published in English and in peer-reviewed journals. In the examination of these 28 studies, particular attention was given to variables related to trauma exposure (e.g. number of traumas, type of trauma). Results: Results indicated that most articles did not report on the GxE interaction in the context of PTSD or present data on the main effects of E despite having data available. Furthermore, some studies that did consider the GxE interaction had significant findings, underscoring the importance of examining how genotypes can modify the effect of trauma on PTSD. Additionally, results indicated that only a small number of genes continue to be studied and that there were marked differences in methodologies across studies, which subsequently limited robust conclusions. Conclusions: As trauma exposure is a necessary condition for the PTSD diagnosis, this paper identifies gaps in the current literature as well as provides recommendations for how future GWAS studies can most effectively incorporate trauma exposure data in both the design and analysis phases of studies.

description: O presente trabalho traça uma abordagem sobre a contribuição significativa da obra literária indianista de Antônio Torres em Meu Querido Canibal que narra a trajetória das comunidades indígenas Tupinambá e Tupiniquim e a sua relação com portugueses e franceses no período da colonização brasileira. Através da ficção literária coloca-se em evidência A Confederação dos Tamoios, fato histórico que uniu índios na maior organização de resistência aos colonizadores portugueses, apresentando-nos personagens indígenas que protagonizaram a nossa história colonial, e que assumem uma postura de herói numa versão avessa ao romantismo indianista, trazendo contribuições significativas para a história social referente à etnicidade, como também fontes inseridas na micro-história detectadas no período colonial - o processo de conquista entre colonizadores e nativos através da exploração, escravização etnocentrada e excludente; a importante contribuição da mão-deobra escrava de índios para dinâmica interna do Brasil indígena na formação da colônia; a resistência pela preservação cultural da comunidade indígena Tupinambá. Para tanto nos embasamos em teóricos como Hayden White (1994), Bernucci (2000), Pesavento (2000), Bernd (1992), Thompson (1998), que reconhecem a importância da ficção literária como objeto de reconhecimento para analisar o discurso histórico e reler fatos da micro-história.

description: The transformation formula of the Berezin integral holds, in the non-compact case, only up to boundary integrals, which have recently been quantified by Alldridge-Hilgert-Palzer. We establish divergence theorems in semi-Riemannian supergeometry by means of the flow of vector fields and these boundary integrals, and show how superharmonic functions are related to conserved quantities. An integration over the supersphere was introduced by Coulembier-De Bie-Sommen as a generalisation of the Pizzetti integral. In this context, a mean value theorem for harmonic superfunctions was established. We formulate this integration along the lines of the general theory and give a superior proof of two mean value theorems based on our divergence theorem.
