This article analyzes Paul Celan’s translation of James Baldwin’s “Everybody’s Protest Novel” and considers the connections between the poetics of these two writers. In addition to their shared preoccupation with and rearticulation of terms such as human, creature, and darkness, the translation reveals how they explored the relationship between literature and reality at early and transitional mome

This paper studies the sources of the Russia–Ukraine conflict. The prerequisites for this conflict began when, in Ukraine and Russia, the liberal tendencies that emerged after the collapse of the USSR gave way to conservatism. The differences between the current state ideologies of the two countries are demonstrated through a comparative analysis of 16 Russian and Ukrainian school history and lite

Philosophy played an important role in the Soviet political system becauseit provided ideological legitimization for the regime. Therefore, throughout the existence of the Soviet Union, the authorities and general populations showed a great interest in the works of philosophers. The collapse of the Soviet Union and its Marxist-Leninist ideology led to philosophy’s losing its privileged political s

BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are sought-after biomarkers of complex, polygenic diseases such as type 2 diabetes (T2D). Data-driven biocomputing provides robust and novel avenues for synthesizing evidence from individual miRNA seq studies.OBJECTIVE: To identify miRNA markers associated with T2D, via a data-driven, biocomputing approach on high throughput transcriptomics.MATERIALS AND METHODS: The

The field of learned image compression has been facing rapid development and research engagement. In this thesis, we seek to make an addition to the field by extending a state-of-the-art learned image compression architecture, called LIC-TCM, by incorporating a depth map as a second complementary modality to further enhance the image compression. Furthermore, we explore the inverse, meaning we pri

Myanmar’s unofficial minorities encompass diverse religious and ethnic groups excluded from Myanmar’s list of 135 officially recognised “national races.” They face exclusion due to their citizenship status as well as societal prejudices and entrenched discrimination against minority communities. Yet, debates over politics, federalism, and power-sharing in Myanmar primarily concern the relationship

We investigated the sequential protein expression in gingival crevicular fluid samples during the induction (I) and resolution (R) of experimental gingivitis. Periodontally and systemically healthy volunteers (n = 20) participated in a three-week experimental gingivitis protocol, followed by debridement and two weeks of regular plaque control. Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) samples were collected

In the search for neutron antineutron oscillations (n → ̄n) in the proposed 200m long NNBAR beamline, it is imperative that the pions originating from the antineutron annihilation events can be detected outside of the vacuum chamber. The purpose of the design of the vacuum chamber then becomes to minimise the effect of the chamber while also adhering to the requirements of the pressure vessels. To

This chapter presents the notion of spatial justice as a way of considering the relationship between law and street art in a manner beyond the legal/illegal dichotomy. Through a series of empirical examples, it is demonstrated how street art literally takes a place already taken and imposes itself in an already appropriated urban public space. Street art thus ´redefines the space in contestation t

Our current historical moment is marked by a widespread sense of (ongoing and anticipated) crises, prompting calls to change existing economic, political, social, and environmental systems.

BACKGROUND: Currently, there are few treatment-predictive and prognostic biomarkers in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Caveolin-1 (CAV1) is linked to chemoresistance and several important processes involved in tumor progression and metastasis, such as epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Herein, we report that high CAV1 gene expression is an independent factor of poor prognosis in TNBC.M

To Speak or Not to Speak: A Study of Upward Critical Feedback from the Perspective of Employees in Non-Managerial Positions. The existence of critical feedback that flows from subordinates and is directed to first-order managers constitutes an insightful source of information about potential internal issues that affect an organization’s overall outcome. Therefore, the presence of a two-way dialogu

This case study of the satire conspiracy theory phenomenon Birds aren’t real, aims to contribute to the academic field of conspiracy theories. Conspiracy theories have seen a rising interest in academia in the last decade. Negative outcomes of the rapid spread of conspiracy theories and misinformation are a threat to democratic struc-tures, institutions, and values. Although the societal importanc

Cardiovascular disease is a worldwide human condition which has multiple underlying contributing factors: one of these is long-term increased blood pressure-hypertension. Nitric oxide (NO) is a small nitrogenous radical species that has a number of physiological functions including vasodilation. It can be produced enzymatically through host nitric oxide synthases and by an alternative nitrate-nitr

Background: A growing literature suggests associations between occupational pesticide exposure and respiratory health. In this study, we aimed to examine the association of exposure to insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides, individually and as a mixture, with respiratory health outcomes and rhinitis in avocado farmworkers from Michoacán, Mexico. Material and methods: We conducted a cross-sectio

Background: All-cause and AIDS-mortality in Europe has been decreasing between 1996 and 2020. However, regional differences as well as their drivers remain unclear. This study investigates mortality differences and their drivers, including usage of and response to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and active tuberculosis (TB), among people with HIV across Europe. Methods: People with HIV enrolled in Eu

BACKGROUND: The medial temporal lobe (MTL) is hypothesized to be relatively spared in early-onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD). Yet, detailed examination of MTL subfield volumes and drivers of atrophy in amnestic EOAD is lacking.METHODS: BioFINDER-2 participants with memory impairment, abnormal amyloid-β status and tau-PET were included. Forty-one EOAD individuals aged ≤65 years and, as comparison,
