Full textAbstract:
One of the key goals of the FAIR guiding principles is defined by its final principle – to optimize data sets for reuse by both humans and machines. To do so, data providers need to implement and support consistent machine readable metadata to describe their data sets. This can seem like a daunting task for data providers, whether it is determining what level of detail should be provided in the provenance metadata or figuring out what common shared vocabularies should be used. Additionally, for existing data sets it is often unclear what steps should be taken to enable maximal, appropriate reuse. Data citation already plays an important role in making data findable and accessible, providing persistent and unique identifiers plus metadata on over 16 million data sets. In this paper, we discuss how data citation and its underlying infrastructures, in particular associated metadata, provide an important pathway for enabling FAIR data reuse.

Full textAbstract:
There are three unique Old Believer manuscript books written on canvas. It is established that all of them were written around the 1820s by Maxim, an adherent of the sect of the beglopopovtsy (“runaway priests”). Two books are anonymous; the third, a prayer book of the “kanonnik” type, contains a colophon in the beginning of which Maxim almost verbatim cited syllabic verses with a mesostic from the Menologium ( Cheti Minei) of Dimitry of Rostov, a renowned critic of Old Believers. Maxim added his own name to the citation. Certain features of the ornament in the canvas codices suggest that Maxim was acquainted with both the Synodal and the Ukrainian-Belarusian book tradition. The citation from Dimitry of Rostov proves this supposition. Maxim’s colophon represents new evidence of Dmitry of Rostov’s literary influence on Old Believers, which has yet received little attention.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractLegal maxims reflect settled principles of law to which jurists appeal when confronting new legal cases. One such maxim of Islamic criminal law stipulates that judges are to avoid imposing hudūd and other sanctions when beset by doubts as to the scope of the law or the sufficiency of the evidence (idra'ū'l-hudūd bi'l-shubahāt): the "hudūd maxim." Jurists of all periods reference this maxim widely. But whereas developed juristic works attribute it to Muhammad in the form of a prophetic report (hadīth), early jurists do not. Instead, they cite the maxim as an anonymous saying of nonspecific provenance in a form unknown to hadīth collectors of the first three centuries after Islam's advent. This difference in the jurists' citations of the maxim signals a significant shift in claims to legal authority and the asserted scope of judicial discretion, as jurists debated whether and how to resolve legal and factual doubt. While political authorities exercised increasingly wide discretion over criminal matters and used it to benefit the elite, most jurists promoted an egalitarian "jurisprudence of doubt" through insisting on criminal liability for high-status offenders and heightening claims of the authoritativeness and scope of the hudūd maxim as a hadīth.

"A Systematic Review of Musculoskeletal Fitness Among Indigenous Populations in North America and Circumpolar Inuit Populations." Journal of Physical Activity and Health 17, no. 3 (March 1, 2020): 384–95. http://dx.doi.org/10.1123/jpah.2018-0702.
Full textAbstract:
Background: North American indigenous populations experience higher rates of obesity and chronic disease compared with nonindigenous populations. Improvements in musculoskeletal fitness can mitigate negative health outcomes, but is not well understood among indigenous populations. This review examines musculoskeletal fitness measures among North American indigenous populations. Methods: A total of 1632 citations were evaluated and 18 studies were included. Results: Comparisons of musculoskeletal fitness measures between North American indigenous men and boys and women and girls were generally not reported. The greatest left and right combined maximal grip strength and maximal leg strength among Inuit boys and men and girls and women were observed among 20–29 years age group. Maximal combined right and left grip strength declined from 1970 to 1990, by an average of 15% among adults and 10% among youth. Maximal leg extension among Inuit has declined even further, averaging 38% among adults and 27% among youth from 1970 to 1990. Inuit men demonstrate greater grip strength and lower leg strength than Russian indigenous men, whereas Inuit women demonstrate greater leg strength. Conclusions: Further research is needed to better understand physical fitness among indigenous peoples and the potential for improving health and reducing chronic disease risk for indigenous peoples through physical fitness.

Full textAbstract:
Commentarial literature constitutes a cornerstone in the edifice of Chinese Buddhism, providing critical exegesis of Indian Buddhist texts. This paper examines the pivotal role of Chengguan (738–839), the fourth patriarch of the Huayan school, revered for his extensive commentarial work on the Chinese translations of the Buddhāvataṃsaka-sūtra. Chengguan not only composed a written commentary but also engaged in discourses with the monastic and lay communities at Wutaishan, prompting the creation of a sub-commentary derived from these oral elucidations. The study posits that the composition of Chengguan’s audiences, comprising Confucian-educated scholars and Buddhist monks, necessitated a pedagogical strategy that integrated Chinese intellectual traditions into the Buddhist narrative to enhance comprehension. This analysis focuses on Chengguan’s citations of the Analects, showcasing how he interweaves Confucian maxims into the fabric of his commentary to illuminate Buddhist doctrines. The research articulates the method he employed to make the Buddhist texts resonate with a Chinese audience.

The purpose of the 2022-2023 Odd Semester Program Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PPM) activities is to improve teachers' ability to make citations and references in writing scientific articles which they will publish either manually or by using computer application programs, especially Mendeley. The target of this PPM activity is all SMA/MA Mathematics MGMP Teachers in Mojokerto Regency. There are three stages in this activity, namely the planning stage. at the socialization stage, the implementation stage. This PPM was held from 1 to 30 November 2022 which was attended by 47 MGMP mathematics teachers in Mojokerto Regency. The implementation of the Community Service Program activities by the Mathematics Education Lecturer team at PGRI Adi Buana University, Surabaya, went smoothly. The participants were very enthusiastic about participating in every activity that had been scheduled. There are three activities in this PPM, namely the Basic Concepts of PTK and Writing of PTK as well as how to cite and make references in writing PTK Scientific Articles. The implementation of the Program Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PPM) activities by the Mathematics Education Lecturer team at PGRI Adi Buana University, Surabaya, went smoothly. The participants were very enthusiastic about participating in every activity that had been scheduled. The obstacle faced during the implementation of the Program Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PPM) by the Lecturer Team of the Mathematics Education Study Program at PGRI Adi Buana University Surabaya was that the room provided was not comfortable because the room was hot so the participants were less comfortable and maximal in participating in the delivery of the material. However, this did not affect the enthusiasm of the participants during the discussion session. Many questions were submitted to the resource person related to the material presented, especially during the mentoring session.

BACKGROUNDRecently, the US Food and Drug Administration requested that a “maximal use” trial be conducted to ensure the safety of frequent use of alcohol-based hand rubs (ABHRs) by healthcare workers.OBJECTIVETo establish how frequently volunteers should be exposed to ABHR during a maximal use trial.DESIGNRetrospective review of literature and analysis of 2 recent studies that utilized hand hygiene electronic compliance monitoring (ECM) systems.METHODSWe reviewed PubMed for articles published between 1970 and December 31, 2015, containing the terms hand washing, hand hygiene, hand hygiene compliance, and alcohol-based hand rubs. Article titles, abstracts, or text were reviewed to determine whether the frequency of ABHR use by healthcare workers was reported. Two studies using hand hygiene ECM systems were reviewed to determine how frequently nurses used ABHR per shift and per hour.RESULTSOf 3,487 citations reviewed, only 10 reported how frequently individual healthcare workers used ABHR per shift or per hour. Very conservative estimates of the frequency of ABHR use were reported owing to shortcomings of the methods utilized. The greatest frequency of ABHR use was recorded by an ECM system in a medical intensive care unit. In 95% of nursing shifts, individual nurses used ABHR 141 times or less per shift, and 15 times or less per hour.CONCLUSIONSHand hygiene ECM systems established that the frequency of exposure to ABHRs varies substantially among nurses. Our findings should be useful in designing how frequently individuals should be exposed to ABHR during a maximal use trial.Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 2017;38:189–195

Full textAbstract:
Study Design: Systematic review. Objective: To perform a systematic review to evaluate the utility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with acute spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods: An electronic search of Medline, EMBASE, the Cochrane Collaboration Library, and Google Scholar was conducted for literature published through May 12, 2015, to answer key questions associated with the use of MRI in patients with acute SCI. Results: The literature search yielded 796 potentially relevant citations, 8 of which were included in this review. One study used MRI in a protocol to decide on early surgical decompression. The MRI-protocol group showed improved outcomes; however, the quality of evidence was deemed very low due to selection bias. Seven studies reported MRI predictors of neurologic or functional outcomes. There was moderate-quality evidence that longer intramedullary hemorrhage (2 studies) and low-quality evidence that smaller spinal canal diameter at the location of maximal spinal cord compression and the presence of cord swelling are associated with poor neurologic recovery. There was moderate-quality evidence that clinical outcomes are not predicted by SCI lesion length and the presence of cord edema. Conclusions: Certain MRI characteristics appear to be predictive of outcomes in acute SCI, including length of intramedullary hemorrhage (moderate-quality evidence), canal diameter at maximal spinal cord compression (low-quality evidence), and spinal cord swelling (low-quality evidence). Other imaging features were either inconsistently (presence of hemorrhage, maximal canal compromise, and edema length) or not associated with outcomes. The paucity of literature highlights the need for well-designed prospective studies.

Full textAbstract:
L’abbé d’Aubignac déclare comme maxime incontestable « que jamais personne ne sera savant dans la Poésie Dramatique, que par le secours des Anciens, et que dans le seul examen de leurs Pièces »1. Les nombreuses citations des auteurs antiques dans La Pratique du théâtre constituent une tentative de la part de d’Aubignac de démontrer ses vastes connaissances dans sa quête de s’imposer comme l’autorité du monde théâtral de son temps. Comme l’affirme Hélène Baby, « l’abbé réserve une place d’honneur à la pratique antique »2. Plaute, Sophocle, Euripide, Térence, Eschyle et Aristophane sont cités plus de trois cents fois dans La Pratique. Des dramaturges contemporains, seul Pierre Corneille attire une attention particulière dans la version non corrigée de l’ouvrage3. À l’égard des théoriciens, les auteurs qui sont le plus souvent cités sont Horace et Aristote. Clairement épris de ce dernier, l’abbé se place toutefois moins comme un disciple que comme une version évoluée de l’auteur de La Poétique. La présente étude vise à examiner l’attitude ambivalente de d’Aubignac à l’égard de l’Antiquité et à démontrer comment l’abbé essaie de s’imposer comme monarque incontesté sur le trône du goût.

‘L'Esprit du Seigneur a rempli l'Univers et lui qui maintient tout dans l'unité, il connaît toute parole.’ Tel est l'introït de la fête de la Pentecôte dans la liturgie de l'Eglise catholique latine; c'est une citation du livre de la Sagesse (1. 7). La thèse d'une omniprésence de l'Esprit saint s'est trouvée, au cours des siècles, développée dans différentes directions. Sensible à la question de la vérité, le Moyen-Age aimait commenter une maxime datant du 4e siècle: ‘Toute vérité, quel que soit celui qui la dise, vient du Saint-Esprit.’ Préoccupé de la sécularisation contemporaine, le Concile Vatican II disait: ‘L'homme, sans cesse sollicité par l'Esprit de Dieu, ne sera jamais tout à fait indifférent au problème religieux.’ Et, soucieux comme toute notre génération de la justice dans la société, il affirmait: ‘L'Esprit de Dieu qui, par une providence admirable, conduit le cours des temps et rénove la face de la terre, est présent à [l'] évolution [des mentalités dans le sens du progrès social].’

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse rassemble principalement des contributions en économie de la science à laquelle les deux premières parties sont consacrées. La première teste l'importance des choix méthodologiques dans la mesure de la production scientifique et étudie les canaux de diffusion de la connaissance. La deuxième s'intéresse aux déterminants individuels et locaux de la productivité des chercheurs et au différentiel de promotion entre hommes et femmes sur le marché du travail académique. Sont établis les résultats suivants : les choix méthodologiques dans la mesure de la production scientifique n'affectent que très peu les classements des institutions de recherche. Les citations et les poids associés à la qualité des journaux mesurent globalement la même productivité de la recherche. La localisation des chercheurs a un impact sur leur productivité dans la mesure où certaines universités génèrent davantage d'externalités que d'autres. Ces externalités sont plus importantes là où les chercheurs sont homogènes en terme de performances, où la diversité thématique est grande, et dans une moindre mesure dans les grands centres de recherche, lorsqu'il y a plus de femmes, de chercheurs âgés, de stars et là où les chercheurs sont connectés à des co-auteurs à l'étranger. Si les femmes sont moins souvent Professeur des Universités (par opposition à Maître de Conférences) que les hommes, ce n'est ni parce qu'elles sont discriminées dans le processus de promotion, ni que le coût de promotion (mobilité) est plus important pour elles, ni qu'elles ont des préférences différentes concernant le salaire et le prestige des institutions dans lesquelles elles travaillentThe core of this thesis lies in the field of economics of science to which the two first parts are devoted. The first part questions the impact of methodological choices in the measurement of research productivity and studies the channels of knowledge diffusion. The second part studies the impact on individual publication records of both individual and departments' characteristics and analyse the gender gap in occupations on the academic labour market. The main results are the following: methodological choices in the measurement of research productivity do not impact the estimated hierarchy of research institutions. Citations and journal quality weights measure the same dimension of publication productivity. Location matters in the academic research activity: some departments generate more externalities than others. Externalities are higher where academics are homogeneous in terms of publication performance and have diverse research fields, and, to a lower extent, if the department is large, with more women, older academics, stars and co-authors connection to foreign departments. If women are less likely to be full Professor (with respect to Assistant Professor) than men, this is neither because they are discriminated against in the promotion process, neither because the promotion cost (mobility) is higher for them, nor because they have different preferences for salaries versus department prestige. A possible, but not tested, explanation is that women self-select themselves by participating less in or exerting lower effort during the promotion process

Abstract Jonathan Edwards begins his treatise The Religious Affections with a citation from 1 Peter 1.8: "Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory." What drew Edwards to this passage were the phrases "ye love" and "ye rejoice with joy unspeakable." For Edwards, love and joy were affections, and his book was a defense of the view that true religion consisted not only in actings of the inclination and will of the soul but also in the fervent exercises of the heart. The religion that God requires has nothing to do with a state of indifference, he writes, but with ardor, with a fervent spirit and a burning heart, in short with passions of the soul. "The holy Scriptures do everywhere place religion very much in the affections; such as fear, hope, love, hatred, desire, joy, sorrow, gratitude, compassion, and zeal.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter redescribes Paul’s “use of scripture” as his divinatory use of texts comparable to the use of oracle collections and textual divination in the ancient world. I argue that Paul does not cite his Jewish scripture as a single divinely inspired text, rather he sees it as a collection of ancestral texts that contain divine oracles within them. Different texts such as the psalms, prophets, or the Pentateuch offer up divine information in different ways, but, like other collections of oracles in the Graeco-Roman world, could be seen to predict current events, or events that still lie in the future for the interpreter. They could also be seen to provide information about the general character of the gods, or to provide general wisdom in the form of proverbs or maxims. These functions of scriptural oracles are particularly illustrated in Paul by detailed analyses of his citations in Romans 9 and Romans 15.

Full textAbstract:
This article describes how organizations embrace various supply chain strategies aiming at effective and efficient performance outcomes for gaining competitive advantage. The authors conducted an extensive search for academic publications on lean, agile, and leagile (hybrid) supply chains in context with automobile industries, published since year 1990 in reliable repositories such as Google Scholar, Scopus and ResearchGate. None of these papers used bibliometric analysis on the topic. This paper systematically maps, publications on lean, agile, and legal strategies in automobile industry published during 1990–2017. A five-step process is followed, namely (i) defining appropriate search terms, (ii) initial search results, (iii) refinement of search results, (iv) initial data, statistics, and (v) data analysis; adopted for inclusion of relevant documents for publication and citation analysis. Selected documents include primary search term ‘automobile' along with associated secondary terms such as ‘lean', ‘agile', ‘lean and agile', and ‘leagile' as part of the title, abstract, or keywords. The analysis finds several documents on lean or agile strategies, but only one document exists on ‘leagile' paradigm. Maximum articles are contributed on engineering subjects followed by business, management and accounting and computer sciences. Large publication and high citation counts were observed for lean from United States and Chinese authors, whereas Indian authors contributed in agile studies. This article identifies areas of current research interests discussing crucial contributions by several authors' and provides potential directions for further research investigations in the field.

Full textAbstract:
The author proposes to study some structural elements of the sound discourse, as well as their manifestation in the ideation of Sonata no.1 for clarinet and piano by Oleg Negruţa. The fact that this creation is written under the influence of jazz music and style is mentioned by the composer himself in the preface to the work – Sonata in Jazz Style. Following the detailed analysis of the first part, it can be observed that the element (language) of jazz is used to the maximum. Typical intonations as jumps, ornaments, trills, sonorous slides, delayed sounds, but also the genuistic sphere are used to the full: the swing dance, although it is the author's music, without resorting to citation, yet its melody corresponds to metrical patterns, rhythmic and expressive of the jazz style. Equally ingenious are the harmonies specific to African-American music – altered chords, unresolved seventh chords, arpeggios, sound overlaps, etc. As is natural, the improvisational manner has a massive presence in the work, which persists in the illustration of the basic themes.

Full textAbstract:
A conceptual study has been carried out for the design of a compact PWR reactor core which employs TRISO fuel particles in zirconium-sheathed fuel rods. This study is focused on reactor core optimization which can be a potential source of energy for a sea going vessel. This compact design can also be used for power production, heating and desalination facilities in a remotely located research facility. This light water cooled and moderated core will be smaller in size as compared to a typical PWR of the same rating. Standard reactor neutronics simulation codes WIMS-D/4 and CITATION have been used for the parametric analysis and to optimize the core. TRISO fuel has been chosen for the current design study because of its superior reliability against the release of fission fragments and high negative temperature coefficient. The selected TRISO fuel particle has 0.40 mm fuel kernel outer diameter in overall 0.870 mm outer diameter. Beryllium has been chosen as reflecting material due to its better reflection properties. Fuel pitch and reflector thickness are optimized to 4 cm and 8 cm respectively. Considering the proliferation issues, a maximum 9% fuel enrichment has been selected with the total fuel inventory of 200kg of uranium. These constraints on fuel enrichment and inventory limit the maximum power to only 25MWth for one year full power operation. This designed PWR core would be compact in size due to the default design of the TRISO fuel; fission neutrons are moderated and reflected by graphite in the fuel itself which causes the increase in reactivity. This additional increment in reactivity would give flexibility to optimize the size of reactor core.
