A shock to thought: Curatorial judgment and the public exhibition of ‘difficult knowledge’

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Many institutions of social memory have moved away from a singular emphasis on affirming presentations of patriotism, triumph and great deeds toward an appreciation of the potential for aggression inherent in human relationships. The result has been a proliferation of practices of remembrance related to violence, loss and death, topics often characterized as ‘difficult knowledge’. This is amply illustrated within contemporary museum practices. Exhibitions commonly understood as offering ‘difficult knowledge’ have concerned not only histories of violent conflict and traumatic loss, but the aftermath of such. Despite this commonplace understanding, it remains important to consider what it is about such exhibitions that render them ‘difficult’ and what might be achieved by making these painful histories public. These questions are explored through a series of comparative studies of varying museum exhibitions that, while drawing from the same archive of images and documents, have presented them in different ways.

Rotational Doppler Effect and Spin-Rotation Coupling

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

The Rotational Doppler Effect (RDE) involves both the orbital angular momentum of electromagnetic radiation as well as its helicity. The RDE phenomena associated with photon helicity go beyond the standard theory of relativity. The purpose of this paper is to elucidate the theoretical basis of the helicity-dependent RDE in terms of the general phenomenon of spin-rotation coupling. The physical implications of this coupling are briefly pointed out and the nonlocal theory of rotating observers is described. For an observer rotating uniformly about the direction of incidence of a plane wave of definite helicity, the nonlocally measured amplitude of the wave is larger (smaller) if the observer rotates in the same (opposite) sense as the electromagnetic field. The implications of the nonlocal helicity dependence of the measured amplitude of the radiation are briefly discussed.
Dynamik der Verunkrautung mit Senecio vulgaris nach einem einmaligen Sameneintrag

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Due to a short generation time associated with a high seed production and a quick germination, which is possible throughout the year, Senecio vulgaris is especially in horticultural crops one of the most important weed species. Like all ragwort species, also Senecio vulgaris contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids which are converted in the liver to harmful substances. For this reason an accidental consumption of this species should be avoided completely. Belonging to the Compositae, chemical control of this weed species in vegetable crops, particularly in lettuce, is difficult. Based on a field-grown model experiment the emergence behavior and growth of Senecio vulgaris in leafy lettuce was studied. The first step was the contamination of the trial plots with Senecio seeds. For this purpose Senecio plants were planted at three different densities (1, 2 and 10 plants m2) in the designated plots. All plots were covered with fleece in order to prevent an unregulated dispersal of seeds. After seed maturity the fleece was removed, plants were cut into small pieces and the plant material including the seeds was incorporated into the soil. Then different leafy lettuces crops (rocket, asia green, spinach, lamb´s lettuce) were cultivated in a six-crop sequence over two years (three crop sopecies per year). The development of Senecio vulgaris and the resulting possible contamination of the lettuces with Senecio leaves was recorded. From the date of removing the fleece on seed-production a shedding of Senecio plants was prevented to avoid further contamination. Also the entry from outside the plots was excluded. Depending on the initial plant density, the 71, 55 and 216 Senecio plants m2 which emerged after the first sowing of lettuce dropped to 7, 9 and 16 plants m2 after the sixth sowing. Thus, the density of S. vulgaris plants rapidly decreased but there was still a significant potential of emerging seedlings potentially contaminating the lettuce crops after six rotations. The trial will be continued until no germination of S. vulgaris plants occurs anymore.
Impact of Smoking on Reproductive Health: A Systematic Review

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: Several research endeavours have endeavoured to evaluate the impact of smoking on the physiology of male and female reproduction. Encompassing sperm parameters, male reproductive architecture, and the male hormonal axes. However, the outcomes have been conflicting and ambiguous. Objectives: To investigate the published literature on the effect of smoking on female and male reproductive health. Methods: PubMed, SCOPUS, Web of Science, and Science Direct were systematically searched for relevant literature. Rayyan QRCI was employed throughout this comprehensive process. Results & interpretation: We included thirteen studies with a total of 10092 participants; 4419 (43.8%) were males, and 5673 (56.2%) were females. Smoking is a risk factor in and of itself for male reproductive health. This is more likely to explain smokers' elevated SHBG levels and differential activity of the seminal antioxidant system. These negative effects included abnormal semen motility, volume, count, and morphology. Additionally, smoking had no discernible impact on women's fertility or ovarian reserve, according to this study. More research is needed to determine whether stopping smoking can treat male infertility caused by these substances and to better understand how cigarette smoke affects both female and male fertility.
Case report of giant retroperitoneal liposarcoma in a young woman

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Retroperitoneal liposarcoma is a rare malignant mesenchymal tumor with an annual incidence of approximately 2.5 cases per 100,000 inhabitants. It does not present specific symptoms, so its early diagnosis is difficult and in most cases it is performed when it has a large size. A 45-year-old patient with a history of increased abdominal perimeter and local discomfort was admitted in our center. After performing an abdominopelvic CT, she was diagnosed of a large, bulky tumor of lipomatous origin that significantly displaced the intestinal loops and the rest of neighboring organs. In view of the clinical suspicion of a liposarcoma, the patient underwent a resection of the lesion located in the retroperitoneum. The histopathological study determined a well differentiated retroperitoneal liposarcoma. The well-differentiated liposarcoma located in the lower limbs and the retroperitoneal space. Its age of presentation is between the fourth and sixth decade of life without finding differences between men and women. Its treatment is surgical and involves the resection of the tumor mass with non-affected surgical margins. Retroperitoneal liposarcoma is a malignant tumor whose treatment is fundamentally surgical. These tumors tend to be resistant to radiotherapy and / or chemotherapy. Among the most important prognostic factors related to survival is surgery with non-affected margins.
Semantic influence on processing gender agreement: Evidence from Hebrew

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

In the present study we examined the influence of manipulating the animacy of the sentential sub-ject on the size of the syntactic priming effect induced by violation of subject-predicate gender agreement in Hebrew. The agreement violation delayed naming incongruent compared with con-gruent predicates. This priming effect was stronger when the sentential subject was an animate than an inanimate noun. Additional experiments revealed that: (1) the interaction between the priming effect and animacy of the subject could not be explained on the basis of differences in the phono-logical transparency of the gender inflection in the two groups of nouns, and (2) it was sensitive to the ratio of animate/inanimate conditions in a block. We suggest that the interaction between the processing of agreement and the effect of animacy is influenced by a controlled process of verify-ing the coherence of a currently identified word within a built-up context. In the present study, we examined the susceptibility of syntactic analysis to nonsyntactic information, focusing on the processing of an agreement rule in Hebrew, a process based on inflectional morphology. Specifically, we exam-ined whether the syntactic analysis of gender agreement between the subject and the predicate is influenced by the semantic feature of animacy of the
Immediate Effects of Lower Limb Sensory Simulation Using Smart Socks to Stabilize Gait in People with Parkinson’s Disease*

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

People with Parkinson's disease (PD) experience gait impairment that can lead to falls and poor quality of life. Here we investigate the feasibility of using smart socks to stimulate the lower limbs of people with PD to reduce excessive step time variability during walking. We hypothesised that rythmic excitation of lower limb afferents, matched to a participant's comfortable pace, would entrain deficient neuro-muscular signals resulting in improved gait. Five people with mild to moderate PD symptoms (70 ± 9 years) were tested on medication before and after a 30-minute familierization session. Paired t-tests and Cohen's d were used to assess gait changes and report effect sizes. Participant experiences were recorded through structured interviews. Lower limb stimulation resulted in an acute 15% increase in gait speed (p=0.006, d=0.62), an 11% increase in step length (p=0.04, d=0.35), a 44% reduction in step time variability (p=0.03, d=0.91), a 22% increase in perceived gait quality (p=0.04, d=1.17), a 24% reduction in mental effort to walk (p=0.02, d=0.79) and no statistical difference for cadence (p=0.16). Participants commented positively on the benefit of stimulation during training but found that stimulation could be distracting when not walking and the socks hard to put on. While the large effects for step time variability and percieved gait quality (Cohen's d > 0.8) are promising, limitations regarding sample size, potential placebo effects and translation to the home environment should be addressed by future studies.Clinical Relevance- This study demonstrates the feasibility of using smart stimulating socks to reduce excessive step time variability in people with PD. As step time variability is a risk factor for falls, the use of smart textiles to augment future rehabilitation programs warrants further investigation.
[Intrahepatic localization of a pancreatic pseudocyst].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Intrahepatic false cysts of the pancreas are rarely observed, and only 5 cases have been reported in the published literature since 1965. Recent publications concerning false cysts located adjacent to or within abdominal parenchymas are reviewed. The most common sites are renal and splenic. Radiologic images usually simulate an intravisceral tumoral lesion, even when the false cyst is in contact only with the parenchyma, because of inflammatory changes. Diagnosis depends on complete radiographic exploration of the pancreas, including ultrasonography, a CT scan, and coeliomesenteric arteriography if possible, to detect possible signs of pancreatitis. Ultrasound guided cyst puncture is of marked diagnostic and possible therapeutic value.
Charting the impacts of Citizens Advice Bureau activities: strategies to orchestrate a realist analytical process

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Background: Although advice services to promote financial inclusion are theorised to improve health and reduce inequalities, there is limited direct evidence for their impact on health outcomes. This presentation reports on a project exploring the pathways to health impact of advice services. \n \nMethods: Advice services are a complex intervention, in that they are individually tailored and nested in a range of other confounding interventions. Undertaking meaningful evaluation, with the often limited financial resources available, demands innovative approaches. This presentation reports on a realist evaluation of how advice interventions work, for whom, in what circumstances and why. \n \nResults: The presentation reflects on the process of developing realist programme theories with good face validity and explanatory potential, linking the inputs of advice to a range of health outputs. Dealing with such a complex intervention, with many overlapping components and targeted at transient user groups presenting a variety of needs required an innovative approach to data management and analysis. We used the software N-Vivo in order to formulate and refine our realist theories, and keep track of the analytical process as data emerged and our familiarisation with the intervention improved. All data (exploratory interviews, reports, observations) was uploaded on the software and coded against developing theories. Detailed notes were kept of how theories evolved up to the point that they were ripe for testing through mixed data collection. \n \nConclusions: The use of N-Vivo to facilitate realist sense making was key in this particularly complex area. Realist thinking is characterised by a ‘toing and froing’ from data to theories until satisfactory explanatory potential is reached. This process, while being well described by now in the literature, is still considered daunting by many researchers. The use of Nvivo organise observational and exploratory data and chart theory development makes a positive addition to the field.
A critical review of risk management support tools

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

It has been claimed by many researchers that "a risk driven approach" to project management is necessary to increase the success of construction projects. Literature is very rich in conceptual frameworks to overcome the informality of risk management efforts. However, risk management paradigms exist as methodologies rather than systems which can fully support the risk management process. The existing risk management support tools are usually based on quantitative risk analysis whereas the other phases are carried out external to the software. Risk registers and risk assessment tools are proposed as decision support systems which can only be used at specific stages of a construction project for specific purposes such as time/cost estimation at the bidding stage, country risk assessment during international market selection etc. Moreover, the proposed risk management support tools usually do not foster integration of risk management activities between the parties involved in the construction supply chain, do not consider impact of risks on all of the project success criteria, and can not handle subjectivity. In the recent years, the research has shifted to information and process models in which risks and response strategies may be identified, analysed and managed in a formal way by the use of database and model management systems. The major objective of this paper is to make a critical review of existing risk management support tools and propose development of a risk management corporate memory coupled with a decision support tool for successful management of risk.
Silencing lncRNA HCG18 regulates GPX4-inhibited ferroptosis by adsorbing miR-450b-5p to avert sorafenib resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Ferroptosis is potential to relieve drug resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) is a critical modulator of ferroptosis. This study discussed the mechanism of GPX4-inhibited ferroptosis in sorafenib resistance in HCC. HCG18 in HCC cells was detected. Sorafenib resistant (SR) cell line Huh7-SR cells were treated with sorafenib (0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10 μM). After silencing HCG18 in Huh7-SR cells, cell activity, proliferation and apoptosis were detected. The levels of iron, the concentration of MDA, GSH and lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS) were measured to evaluate the ferroptosis. The downstream mechanism of HCG18 was predicted and verified. Huh7-SR cells were infected with lentivirus sh-HCG18 to establish xenograft tumor model. HCG18 was elevated in HCC cells and associated with sorafenib resistance. Silencing HCG18 inhibited cell proliferation, promoted apoptosis, and impaired sorafenib resistance. Ferroptosis was inhibited in Huh7-SR cells, while silencing HCG18 inhibited sorafenib resistance by promoting ferroptosis. GPX4 overexpression averted the promotion of sh-HCG18 on ferroptosis, thereby reducing sorafenib resistance. HCG18 sponged miR-450b-5p to regulate GPX4. Collectively, Silencing HCG18 inhibits GPX4 by binding to miR-450b-5p, promotes GPX4-inhibited ferroptosis, and averts sorafenib resistance in HCC.
Correlation Between Extracellular Focal Potentials and K+ Potentials Evoked by Primary Afferent Activity

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

There is a clear, positive correlation in amplitude between changes in potassium potentials (ΔE K ) and focal potentials (ΔV) evoked by tetanic stimulation of afferent nerves in the cuneate nucleus and dorsal horn of cats under Dial anaesthesia or after decerebration. Data obtained with stimulations at various frequencies and intensities, or recording at different positions give a relatively constant slope of ΔV/ΔE K (varying between 0.2 and 0.6 in different experiments). These observations are fully consistent with the possibility that ΔV mainly reflects changes in extracellular potassium concentration caused by the release of K + from active terminals. Differences in time course of ΔE K and ΔV evoked by single stimuli are a steep function of distance and therefore can be ascribed to the slowness of diffusion, without excluding the possibility of an early additional depolarizing effect by another mechanism.

Binur R, Pancoro A. 2017. Inbreeding depression level of post-larvae freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) from several hatcheries in Java, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 18: 609-618. Inbreeding accumulation will tend to reduce genetic variation or depressed of the prawn fry produced. This problem has caused a decrease in production and quality of prawns culture in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to measure the level of inbreeding depression prawn fry generated from several hatcheries in Java by microsatellite markers. There is four microsatellite locus to be used i.e Prk9A/T1, Prk4G/T1, TGFP16, and Mr8-88. The amplification of fourth locus using PCR with 6-carboxy-fluorescine (6-FAM) label. The number of alleles (Na) from fourth locus is Mr8-88 (11 alleles), TGFP16 (10 alleles), Prk4G/T1 (9 alleles), dan Prk9A/T1 (5 alleles), respectively. The level of polymorphism locus from highest to lowest is locus Prk4G/T1 (0.703), Prk9A/T1 (0.507), TGFP16 (0.410), and Mr8-88 (0.370), respectively. Inbreeding depression level of postlarvae (PL) M. rosenbergii tend to moderate with BBI Ciamis (He 0.444), BBUG Samas (He 0.514), LRPTBPAT Sukamandi (He 0.519), and UPBL Probolinggo (He 0.530), respectively. AMOVA analysis showed about 8.0% genetic variation among populations. From these results, it can be concluded that the PL produced indicated have been depressed. Post-larvae prawns produced from fourth hatcheries is not recommended to be a broodstock but can be used for cultivation for farmers.

What shall I do? Similarities and differences in moral judgements between Austrian and Mongolian students

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Abstract Cross-cultural research in moral judgements (e.g., whether to sacrifice one person to save several others) often focuses on differences regarding the instrumentality of harm, i.e., whether the death of one person is an instrument to save several others (instrumental) or is an incidental side-effect (incidental). Less cross-cultural research exists on differences regarding one’s own involvement, i.e., whether one’s own life or only the life of others is at risk. The present study investigated the influence of both factors on moral judgements in a European (Austrian) and an Asian (Mongolian) culture. Austrians and Mongolians read moral dilemmas and chose whether (or not) they would carry out an action that sacrifices one but saves several others. Afterwards, they rated the moral acceptability of that action. Both cultures chose utilitarian actions (sacrificing one to save others) less often in instrumental than in incidental dilemmas. Thus, instrumental harm is universally regarded as worse than incidental harm. In instrumental dilemmas, Mongolians chose more utilitarian actions than Austrians, indicating that Mongolians more likely act in favour of group welfare. In instrumental dilemmas, Austrians chose more utilitarian actions when their own life was at risk than when only the life of others was at risk. In incidental dilemmas, the opposite was observed for Mongolians. Thus, Austrians more likely act in favour of self-interest, whereas Mongolians perceive it as more unvirtuous to harm others to save oneself. Results on moral acceptability ratings and decision times further support those cultural differences. Thus, culture may convey certain moral decisions.
