“Huir Sí Es Mejor Plan”: Rethinking The Subject In Digital Literature, Fernanda Mugica

ELO (un)supervised 2026

As an extension of my research on contemporary appropriative practices that experiment with deviant uses of technology, this paper explores the question of subjectivity in digital literature. My aim is to examine how a set of contemporary works of electronic literature problematize the relationships between writing, technology, and subject formation. Within this framework, I propose a reading of Huir sí es mejor plan (2020), a work created in Twine by Argentine writer Valeria Mussio. To address the question of the subject in an algorithmic culture, it is essential to attend to the spatial modulations (Angeliki 2021) that traverse it: media …

Electronic Literature In Ai Data Work, Mihai Bacaran

ELO (un)supervised 2026

This paper is based on my personal experience of working as a transcriber for AI projects between 2023 and 2025 in a Business Process Outsourcing company located in Eastern Europe. The job of transcribers is to listen to audio recordings provided by The Client (a major tech company whose name cannot be mentioned due to nondisclosure agreements) and either transcribe them from scratch or correct an AI generated transcription. The recordings are gathered from users of digital devices, many of whom appear unaware of being recorded.

During the transcription work, probably due to the excruciating boredom of performing the same …

Method And Apparatus For Digital Identity Construction Using Graph-Based Similarity Analysis, Karanjit Saha, Riddhi Banerjee

Defensive Publications Series

A method for digital identity construction includes extracting, by a processor, information related to a plurality of users or entities from one or more data sources. The method includes creating a plurality of tables to organize the extracted information. The method includes constructing a connected component graph based on the created plurality of tables, wherein the connected component graph is a single-dimensional graph. The method includes splitting the single-dimensional connected component graph into a multi-dimensional graph and converting the multi-dimensional graph into a vector data structure. The method includes comparing vectors of the vector data structure to identify similarity and …

Dynamic Cascades In Hyper-Connected Geopolitical Systems: Quantifying Attrition Wave Mechanics And Resonance Stabilization Paths Toward Type 1 Civilizational Metrics, Christopher L. Eckes

Defensive Publications Series

Modern global security architectures behave not as isolated friction points, but as a fluid, hyper-connected ecosystem. When a high-friction decision or structural error occurs within a single systemic node, it generates a kinetic wave that propagates throughout the entire network, building destructive momentum as it strikes secondary institutional vulnerabilities. This paper introduces a rigorous, quantitative framework for mapping these interconnected crises.

By defining an 18-Month Continuous Friction Engine and deploying object-oriented system dynamics modeling, we evaluate how global stability degrades when states systematically trade technical and operational merit for ideological compliance. We anchor our wave mechanics calculations in empirical, real-world …

Migritude In The Digital Space: An Analysis Of Migration Narratives In Twenty-First-Century Electronic Literature, Ruth Oluyemi Akande

ELO (un)supervised 2026

The study examines the concept of migritude in the field of digital literature, highlighting the importance of African and diasporic movements in the development of modern electronic narratives studies. Drawing upon digital humanities, postcolonial theory, and African literary studies, the study posits that electronic literature transcends mere representation of migration; it actively enacts migritude through its formal, procedural, and interactive design.

This research will  careful analyse the specific electronic literary works, demonstrates how nonlinear narratives, hypertextual fragmentation, and reader involvement reflect the inherent discontinuities of migratory experiences, while also highlighting African epistemologies, linguistic hybridity, and cultural memory. These digital narratives, …

Emotional Sobriety As Liberation: A Critical Pedagogy Of Resilience, Carl Bryan

The Interactive Journal of Global Leadership and Learning

This white paper extends the Reclaiming Model of trauma recovery by examining what follows critical consciousness when trauma persists and systems remain largely unchanged. Building on Reclaiming My Story, which framed healing as a Freirean act of reclaiming authorship through naming harm, dialogue, and praxis (Bryan, 2026), this paper addresses how reclaimed consciousness is sustained under ongoing emotional, relational, and structural strain. Drawing on critical pedagogy, trauma scholarship, and a first-person case narrative, it reframes post-trauma survival not as incomplete recovery but as ongoing praxis. The analysis challenges resolution-based and individualizing models of healing by conceptualizing emotional sobriety, relational regulation, …

An Agent-Based System For Optimizing Webpage Content For Automated Information Retrieval, Lenord Melvix

Defensive Publications Series

A challenge may arise for automated information retrieval systems, such as generative artificial intelligence applications, when parsing webpages designed primarily for human visual consumption, potentially leading to incomplete or inaccurate responses to user queries. To address this, systems and methods can employ a multi-agent framework to optimize webpage content. The system can parse a webpage, generate a set of potential user queries, and identify informational gaps by determining which queries are not answered by the page's existing content. A business representative can then provide verified answers for these gaps, which an agent can programmatically embed into the webpage's source code …

Rare Presentation Of Sequential Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma, Follicular Lymphoma, And Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: A Case-Based Review, Khushi J. Desai, Ansy H. Patel, Patrick T. O’Dowd, Joseph A. Tworek, Preeti G. Misra, Li Ding

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives

Introduction: Occurrence of 2 (or more) Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma concordantly or sequentially in a single patient is very rare.

Case: An 88-year-old Italian male with a history of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma in remission and indolent follicular lymphoma under surveillance, presented with acute autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA). While initially speculated to be secondary to follicular lymphoma relapse, stable mesenteric lymphadenopathy compared to prior CT abdomen/pelvis and smudge cells on peripheral smear prompted further evaluation. Peripheral blood flow cytometry indicated a mature B-cell neoplasm, which was confirmed to be chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) with a bone marrow biopsy. Minimal …

A Tight Squeeze – Cardiac Tamponade In A Scleroderma Patient, Ifrah Nadeem, Charles E Geringer

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives

Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune connective tissue disease marked by multiorgan fibrosis, including cutaneous involvement, and vasculopathy. Primary heart involvement in systemic sclerosis (SSc-pHI) includes heart failure, arrhythmia, pericarditis, pericardial effusion, valve disorders, and myocarditis. SSc-pHI remains a leading cause of mortality in this population. Pericardial effusion in SSc is usually associated with heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, and end-stage kidney disease. Cardiac tamponade is a rare initial presentation of SSc-pHI but carries a worse prognosis. Diagnosis is often challenging due to subclinical manifestations and requires advanced imaging modalities such as transthoracic echocardiography with tissue doppler and cardiac magnetic resonance …

A Comparative Analysis Of Opioid Overdose Hospitalizations Pre- And Post-Pandemic: Insights From The National Inpatient Sample Database, Hassan Shakir, Niloy Ghosh, Mohammed A Quazi, Tom Limanovich, Abdul Rafel Awan, Humza Saeed, Adeel Nasrullah, Christopher R Smith, Abu Baker Sheikh

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted healthcare systems, affecting opioid overdose–related hospitalizations. National data examining how demographic and clinical outcomes evolved during this period, particularly by overdose intent, remain limited.

Methods: Using the National Inpatient Sample (2018–2021), we identified adult hospitalizations for opioid overdose using ICD-10 codes and categorized cases as intentional, unintentional, or unspecified. Patients were grouped into pre-COVID (2018–2019) and post-COVID (2020–2021) cohorts. Multivariable logistic and linear regression models adjusted for patient- and hospital-level factors evaluated demographic differences, complications, and outcomes

Results: Among 293,810 hospitalizations, intentional overdoses decreased over time, while unintentional overdoses remained predominant. Post-COVID hospitalizations had higher …

A Holistic Perspective On (In)Formal English Learning Through Mobile Apps, Gamification, And Virtual And Augmented Reality, Ahmed Abdullah Ahmed Alshehri

UB Journal for Humanities

Using digital tools such as Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL), Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL), Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and gamification has remodeled language learning. Despite their advances and integration into language programs, gaps remain in personalization, accessibility, and skill development. This study aims to explore the impact of such tools on language learning outcomes in formal and informal settings, with a focus on mobile Apps, VR/AR, and gamification. A mixed-method approach was employed, interconnecting quantitative surveys with 150 participants and qualitative interviews. The former was used to assess tool usage, motivation, and proficiency, and the latter (qualitative data dealt …

How Rude?: Prohibitions On Insults And Abuse In International Human Rights Complaint Proceedings, Lisa Reinsberg

Northwestern Journal of Human Rights

May international human rights mechanisms close their doors to individuals who insult their members or Member States? Several do so, but the basis, scope, and impact of such rejections remain mostly unexamined. This article maps the relevant practices of regional and United Nations human rights bodies and compares them to other courts’ responses to contempt of court or vexatious litigation, to understand whether this admissibility criterion is a proper application of the prohibition on abuse of the right of petition or a legitimate exercise of a human rights body’s inherent powers. Three approaches emerge: ignore, balance, and punish. While the …

Overcoming Igf1r-Mediated Resistance To Oncolytic Hsv1 And Radiotherapy Via Triple Combination Therapy, Alexandra A Miller, Min-Hye Noh, Jin Muk Kang, Jiyeon Kim, Lily Nguyen, Amanda S Kouaho, Grace Nguyen, Minxin Huang, Stephanie M Bean, Joshua Davis, Matthew P Mullarkey, Sunil Krishnan, Zhongming Zhao, E Antonio Chiocca, Tae Jin Lee, Ji Young Yoo

The Brown Foundation: Institute of Molecular Medicine

FDA-approved oncolytic herpes simplex virus-1 (oHSV) therapy has emerged as a promising viro-immunotherapy for solid tumors. However, tumor- and tumor microenvironment (TME)-associated adaptations following viral treatment, such as feedback immune suppression, neoangiogenesis, and enhanced tumor aggressiveness, often hinder complete tumor eradication. A deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying resistance to oHSV is crucial to enhancing its clinical impact. We recently discovered that oHSV induces Insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) secretion, shaping an immunosuppressive TME. Similarly, radiotherapy (RTx) activates the IGF1/IGF1R and YAP1 signaling pathways, further promoting therapeutic resistance. In this study, we investigated how oHSV-induced Insulin-like growth factor 1 …

All Decisions

Landlord commenced a nuisance holdover proceeding against a rent-stabilized tenant in a supportive housing building. Tenant moved to dismiss on the ground that the notice of petition used non-standard language substituting 'fair use and occupancy' for the prescribed money judgment language. The court granted the motion, holding the deviation from the mandatory form was not de minimis and rendered the notice of petition fatally defective and unamendable.

Continuous 1:1 Sitter Observation Versus Standard Safety Interventions To Reduce Falls In Hospitalized Adults At Risk, Zainab Williams

Student Scholarly Projects

Practice Problem: Patient falls remain a significant patient safety concern among hospitalized adults, particularly those at high risk. Traditional fall-prevention strategies, including continuous 1:1 sitter observation, require evaluation to determine their effectiveness in reducing falls and fall-related injuries.

PICOT: In hospitalized adult patients at high risk for falls (P), does continuous 1:1 sitter observation (I), compared to standard safety interventions (C), reduce fall rates (O) as measured by reported falls per 1,000 patient days during hospitalization over 12 weeks (T)?

Evidence: Current evidence supports multifactorial fall-prevention programs that combine patient assessment, staff engagement, and proactive nursing interventions through intentional rounding. …

Comparison Of Methods For Defatted Human Milk And Nutrient Composition: An Experimental Study, Kristin Cheng, Gina O'Toole, Stephanie Chang, Richard Chang, John Miklavcic

Food Science Faculty Articles and Research

Background

Human milk is considered the gold standard for infant nutrition; however, it is often discontinued in chylothorax and severe very long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency. As an alternative to complete human milk restriction, defatted human milk may be fed, though it may not fully support optimal infant growth and development. This study aimed to assess the micronutrient profile of defatted human milk.

Methods

Human milk was obtained from UCSD Human Milk Research Biorepository (San Diego, CA). Thirty samples representing 10 independent expressions in the morning, afternoon, and evening were pooled for analysis. Fat removal was performed by centrifugation at …

Generalized Submaximality And Paracompactness In Ideal Topological Spaces Via Δβ*-𝔍-Open Sets, Chawalit Boonpok, Areeyuth Sama-Ae

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

This paper explores the notions of δβ^*-𝔍-submaximality and δβ^*-𝔍-paracompactness within ideal topological spaces, viewing them as natural generalizations of the traditional concepts of submaximality and paracompactness. These concepts arise naturally in the context of ideal topology, where an ideal 𝔍 on a topological space provides additional structure for analyzing topological properties. It focuses on the study of submaximal spaces by employing δβ^*-𝔍-open sets, which serve as fundamental building blocks for understanding the topological behavior in ideal spaces. Furthermore, the work provides multiple characterizations of δβ^*-𝔍-paracompact spaces and examines how this property behaves …
