O presente trabalho aborda a relação entre a desigualdade socioeconômica e a política de encarceramento no Brasil, tendo como problema de pesquisa a seguinte questão: Em que medida a desigualdade socioeconômica existente no Brasil condiciona o aumento da população carcerária? A hipótese defendida é que a desigualdade socioeconômica brasileira é um fator e uma variável estratégica que concorre para e condiciona o aumento da população carcerária, pois o sistema penal aplica de forma seletiva a política de repressão e encarceramento. O objetivo é demonstrar que essa seletividade resulta no aumento contínuo da população carcerária e que esse modelo é insustentável, sob a perspectiva da escassez de recursos para manutenção e construção de presídios. O trabalho adota como marco teórico os estudos de Juarez Cirino dos Santos e Edwin Sutherland, na linha de pesquisa da Criminologia. O método de pesquisa utilizado é o hipotético dedutivo, com revisão bibliográfica e documental, coleta de dados sobre o cárcere brasileiro divulgados por órgãos oficiais e fontes secundárias. Os resultados indicam que é necessário diminuir o número de presos, seja por ampliação das estratégias de desencarceramento ou pela reformulação do juízo de garantias, bem como promover estratégias de prevenção ao crime por meio de avaliação de riscos e conjunturas, investindo em políticas sociais para redução da criminalidade.

This article investigates the corpus-based discourse study of the representations of smog documentary Under the Dome in five Chinese media (Xinhua News, People’s Daily, China News, Guangming Daily and Caijing Net) and four American media (The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post and USA Today). It is found that dialectical relationship between discourse and culture, discourse and politics as exemplified by the historical issues, various linguistic forms and discursive strategies. The findings suggest that Chinese media discourse about Chai’s smog documentary tends to be unitary, while American media discourse focuses on the whole story of the event and constructs an integrated discourse event with diverse perspectives. American news reports inclined to take a determinative attitude to accuse Chinese government’ censorship while Chinese news report focuses on expressing people’s emotion and opinion toward the smog documentary and Chai Jing.

The article focuses on biographical-critical profile of an Iranian scholar Anna Vanzan. It mentions work of translation of works that have allowed to de-stereotype and social and anthropological studies, innovative domains, little explored or simply overlooked and bring tales, fables and fairy tales to kahve-khanas or chai-khana. It also mentions Sufi mysticism and fertilizes the Persian-Iranian women's literature of which Vanzan has made a his distinctive line of study.

The modification and recognition of 5‐methylcytosine (m5C) are involved in the initiation and progression of various tumor types. However, the precise role and potential mechanism of Y‐box‐binding protein 1 (YBX1) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains unclear. Here, it is found that YBX1 is frequently upregulated in ESCC compared with matched nontumor tissues. Gain‐ and loss‐of‐function assays show that YBX1 promoted the proliferation and metastasis of ESCC cells both in vitro and in vivo. Functional studies revealed that NOP2/Sun RNA methyltransferase family member 2 (NSUN2) is a critical RNA methyltransferase that facilitates YBX1‐mediated ESCC progression. Mechanistically, integrated analysis based on RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (RIP‐seq) and m5C methylated RNA immunoprecipitation and sequencing (MeRIP‐seq) assays identified spermine oxidase (SMOX) as a target gene containing an m5C site in its coding sequence (CDS) region, which coincided well with the binding site of YBX1. Overexpression of SMOX‐WT but not SMOX‐Mut partially restored the proliferation and invasion ability of ESCC cells curbed by YBX1 knockdown. Moreover, YBX1 activated the mTORC1 signaling pathway by stabilizing SMOX mRNA. The study reveals that YBX1 promotes ESCC development by stabilizing SMOX mRNA in an m5C‐dependent manner, thus providing a valuable therapeutic target for ESCC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The essay describes the role the Tuscan sculptor Corrado Feroci played in the westernization process of the Kingdom of Siam, eventually Thailand. With his portraits and monumental sculptures, Feroci has radically changed the way in which the ruling class has handed down its image, as well as founding the first academy of fine arts in Bangkok, directing with his teaching all the main Thai artists of the after the twentieth century.

The article investigates residential conflict in a Hindustani suburb in Brescia. How could we account of real estate speculation within an «ethnic» brokerage system, nourished by poor housing policies and micro-scale transnational capitalism? The case study reveals the short-circuits behind the financialisation of housing: the tension between residents and property owners, between those who extract monetary value from the «house» and those who struggle to have one. Halfway stand the new landlords, long-term immigrants who have invested in «bricks and mortar» to consolidate their status and provide a roof for newly arrived compatriots, triggering a spiral of distrust and dubious reciprocity.

Use of mesenchymal stem cells from bone marrow has gained significant popularity. The iliac crest has been determined to be an effective site for harvesting mesenchymal stem cells. Review of the literature revealed that multiple techniques are used to harvest bone marrow aspirate from the iliac crest, but the descriptions are based on the experience of various authors as opposed to studied anatomy. A safe, reliable, and reproducible method for aspiration has yet to be studied and described. Connective tissue progenitors (CTPs) from native bone marrow (BM) or their culture-expanded progeny, often referred to as mesenchymal stem/stromal cells, represent a promising strategy for treatment of cartilage injuries and other problems of bone consolidation. However, the cartilage regeneration capacity of these cells remains unpredictable because of cell heterogeneity. Our experience concerning the aspiration of mesenchymal stem cells from the iliac crest and their use in patients suffering from chondropathy has given good results, with the use of the sepax2 method for processing and preparation of mesenchymal stem cells extracted from the iliac crest.

The article attempts to contribute to the history of the self-appellations of so-called "Gypsy" populations starting from the first European documents that recorded them. Continuing the studies carried out in previous decades by several linguists, it will particularly try to show how Kalé and Rom(a)ničel(a) autonyms were much more highly used in modern Europe than they are today and how their enormous diffusion contrasts with their now extremely modest use. The article will try to reconstruct their geographical diffusion and their relationships with other Romani self-appellations, of which it will also try to reconstruct the diffusion areas. In immersion, dispersion processes and the absence of legitimacy which historically characterizes populations known as "Gypsies" in Europe, the game of primary and secondary self-appellations is fundamental in reporting on identity dissolutions, resistances, innovations and self-constructions.
