    Autor přítomného příspěvku sumarizuje vědeckou aktivitu prof. Petra Liby, jež překračuje hranice literární vědy směrem ke kulturologii a interdisciplinaritě ve smyslu stálé prostupnosti a srovnávacího výzkumu. Autor komentuje tři části Libova myšlení manifestované v souboru studií Kultúra/Literatúra (2005): kulturní ráz společenské komunikace, jako je věda, globalizace, národní charakter kulturní tvořivosti a cesta ke kořenům tradice a duchovnosti včetně díla ruského náboženského filozofa Vl. Solovjova. Ve svých komentářích autor zdůrazňuje Libovu schopnost překračovat vrstvy lidského myšlení a jeho intuitivní uchopení všeho podstatného v kulturní činnosti lidstva.The author of the present contribution summarizes the scholarly activity of professor Peter Liba who transcends the boundaries of literary criticism towards cultural studies and interdisciplinarity in the sense of the permanent permeability and comparative character of the research. The author comments upon the three parts of Liba's thought manifested in a volume of his studies Culture/Literature (2005): cultural character of social communication, such as science, globalization, the national character of cultural creativeness, and the way to the roots of tradition and spirituality including the works of the Russian religious poet and philosopher Vladimir Solovyov. In his comments the author accentuates Liba's ability to transcend the layers of human thinking and his intuitive grasp of all the substantial in cultural activity of mankind

    An assessment of per capita water consumption in Sirte, Libya

    No full text
    This is the author accepted manuscript. The final version is available from Springer via the DOI in this record .Worldwide, where freshwater resources are limited, a major water scarcity problem occurs. Population growth, which leads to increased water consumption with high inefficiencies of household water use behaviour especially in developing countries, makes the problem worse. In this situation, a sustainable urban water management approach which considers household water consumption patterns is required. However, country specific water consumption data particularly for the developing countries is limited. This paper investigates per capita water consumption in Sirte city by evaluating the indoor and outdoor domestic water uses using a survey. The survey contains information about demographic, socio-economic and household water end use behavioural characteristics. The preliminary results suggest that water consumption varies with the type of dwelling and females tends to consume considerable more water in comparison to males. Household income does not seem to affect water consumption.Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research in Liby

    Current concepts on oxidative/carbonyl stress, inflammation and epigenetics in pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

    No full text
    Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a global health problem. The current therapies for COPD are poorly effective and the mainstays of pharmacotherapy are bronchodilators. A better understanding of the pathobiology of COPD is critical for the development of novel therapies. In the present review, we have discussed the roles of oxidative/aldehyde stress, inflammation/immunity, and chromatin remodeling in the pathogenesis of COPD. An imbalance of oxidants/antioxidants caused by cigarette smoke and other pollutants/biomass fuels plays an important role in the pathogenesis of COPD by regulating redox-sensitive transcription factors (e.g., NF-κB), autophagy and unfolded protein response leading to chronic lung inflammatory response. Cigarette smoke also activates canonical/alternative NF-κB pathways and their upstream kinases leading to sustained inflammatory response in lungs. Recently, epigenetic regulation has been shown to be critical for the development of COPD because the expression/activity of enzymes that regulate these epigenetic modifications have been reported to be abnormal in airways of COPD patients. Hence, the significant advances made in understanding the pathophysiology of COPD as described herein will identify novel therapeutic targets for intervention in COPD

    Metodologiczne podstawy w badaniu duchowości i metaempirycznego [metafizycznego, ponaddoświadczalnego] wymiaru rzeczywistości literackiej

    Autorka v štúdii predstavuje metodologické východiská výskumu duchovnosti v umeleckom texte. Základným východiskom sú možnosti interdisciplinarity (filozofia, experimentálna psychológia, teológia, religionistika, lingvistika, literárna veda aj semiotika), ktorá smeruje k transdisciplinárnemu prieniku do stvárnenia metaempirickej dimenzie skutočnosti v semiotickej štruktúre. Bázové podnety autorka čerpá z výskumu Z. Plašienkovej, J. Komorovského, M. Stríženca, ale aj P. Libu, M. Milčáka a J. Sabola. Metodologicky zostavený súbor pojmov: duchovnosť – t/Transcendencia – religiozita a spiritualita – spiritualéma – „homo religiosus“ – sakrálno a profánno dopĺňa príkladmi analýzy a interpretácie konkrétnych básnických či prozaických textov predstaviteľov slovenskej literatúry 19. a 20. storočia (napr. Hviezdoslava [P. Országha], M. Kukučína, J. G. Tajovského, S. Cambela – Š. Kosorkina, E. B. Lukáča, I. Kraska, F. Švantnera aj M. Rúfusa). Obohatením, ktoré štúdia prináša, je návrh ďalšieho rozšírenia modality fenoménu duchovnej zrelosti v skúmaní lyrického či epického subjektu v umeleckej poézii a próze o pojmy „homo spiritualis“ a „homo spiritus / homo Spiritus“. Tie umožňujú, popri pojme J. Komorovského „homo religiosus“, diferencovane vystihnúť mieru umeleckého stvárnenia duchovnej zrelosti, podmienenej sebapresahovaním, t.j. autotranscendenciou. Roztvárajú sa tak možnosti sledovať umelecké stvárnenie procesu spiritualizácie, a to v teocentrickom, kristocentrickom či až mystickom ukotvení života v jednote s Duchom svätým. Jej výsledkom je nielen vyšší stupeň integrity postavy ako duchovnej bytosti, ale aj estetické rozvinutie metaempirickej dimenzie literárnej skutočnosti ako umelecky stvárnenej numinozity v obraze života. V rámci semiotickej štruktúry umeleckého textu tak duchovný rozmer preniká v osobitej podobe tzv. diafánie aj do kategórie času (chronos – kairos) a priestoru (tzv. genius loci). Prínosom štúdie je pojmový aparát, ktorý do metodológie výskumu umeleckého textu prináša možnosť diferencovane skúmať mieru spiritualizácie v tvarovaní epického či lyrického subjektu a literárnej skutočnosti. Autorka predstavuje metodologické východiská výskumu duchovnosti v umeleckom texte. Základným východiskom sú možnosti interdisciplinarity, ktorá smeruje k transdisciplinárnemu prieniku do stvárnenia metaempirickej dimenzie v semiotickej štruktúre. Obohatením je návrh ďalšieho rozšírenia modality fenoménu duchovnej zrelosti pri skúmaní lyrického či epického subjektu v umeleckej poézii a próze.The author presents methodological starting points of the research on spirituality in the literary text. The basic one is the potential of an interdisciplinary approach (philosophy, experimental psychology, theology, religious studies, linguistics, literary scholarship, and semiotics) heading towards the transdisciplinary penetration into the depiction of meta-empirical dimension in the semiotic structure. Basic impulses are drawn from the research of Z. Plašienková, J. Komorovský, M. Stríženec, and also P. Liba, M. Milčák and J. Sabol. The author methodologically forms a set of concepts: transcendence / Transcendence – religiosity and spirituality – spiritualeme – „homo religiousus“ – sacral and profane nature, adding examples of an analysis and interpretation of particular poetic or prosaic texts of the Slovak literature of 19th and 20th century (Hviezdoslav [P. Országh], M. Kukučín, J. G. Tajovský, S. Cambel – Š. Kosorkin, E. B. Lukáč, I. Krasko, F. Švantner and M. Rúfus). The study proposes to further extend the modality of the phenomenon of the spiritual maturity in the research of the lyrical or epic subject in poetry and prose by means of introducing the concepts „homo spiritualis“ and „homo „spiritus / homo Spiritus“. Along with J. Komorovský’s concept “homo religiosus“, they make it possible to estimate the degree of the artistic depiction of spiritual maturity determined by autotranscendence. This gives us new possibilities to observe the artistic depiction of the process of spiritualisation, that is in theocentric, Christocentric or even mystical anchoring of the life in 78 unity with the Holy Spirit. Its outcome is not only the higher degree of the integrity of the character as a spiritual being, but also the aesthetic development of the meta-empirical dimension of literary reality as an artistically rendered numinosity in the picture of life. Thus, within the semiotic structure of an artistic text, the spiritual dimension penetrates the category of time (chronos vs. kairos) and space (genius loci) in a special form of diaphany. The main contribution of the study is the introduction of such conceptual apparatus into the methodology of the study of an artistic text that makes it possible to explore differently the degree of spiritualisation in modelling the epic or lyrical subject and literary reality. The author presents methodological starting points of the research of spirituality in literary texts. The basic one is the potential of interdisciplinary approach heading towards transdisciplinary penetration into the rendering of meta-empirical dimension in the semiotic structure. She proposes to further extend the modality of phenomenon of the spiritual maturity in the research into the lyrical or epic subject in poetry and prose.Autorka w studium przedstawia metodologiczne podstawy badań nad duchowością w tekście artystycznym (literackim). Punktem wyjścia jest możliwość interdyscyplinarności [ujęcia interdyscyplinarnego] (filozofia, psychologia eksperymentalna, teologia, religioznawstwo, językoznawstwo, literaturoznawstwo oraz semiotyka), która ukierunkowuje do transdyscyplinarnego (ponaddziedzinowego) wniknięcia [penetrowania] w tworzenie (proces stwarzania) metaempirycznego (metafizycznego, ponad-doświadczalnego) wymiaru rzeczywistości w strukturze semiotycznej. Bazowe inspiracje [impulsy] autorka czerpie z badań Z. Plašienkovej, J. Komorovskiego, M. Stríženca, ale także P. Liby, M. Milčáka i J. Sabola. Metodologicznie skompilowany [ukształtowany] zestaw [wybór] pojęć (terminów, kategorii): ‘duchowność‘ – ‘transcendencja‘ / ‘Transcendencja‘ – ‘religijność‘ i ‘spirytualność‘ (‘duchowość‘, ‘mistyczność‘) – ‘spirytualne‘ (‘duchowe‘, ‘mistyczne‘) – „homo religiosus“ – sacrum i profanum dopełnia przykładami analizy oraz interpretacji konkretnych, poetyckich lub prozatorskich tekstów przedstawicieli literatury słowackiej 19. i 20. stulecia (na przykład: Hviezdoslava [P. Országha], M. Kukučína, J. G. Tajovskiego, S. Cambela – Š. Kosorkina, E. B. Lukáča, I. Kraska, F. Švantnera oraz M. Rúfusa). Dodatkową wartością, którą to studium wnosi, jest propozycja dalszego rozszerzenia modalności (modelu) zjawiska (fenomenu) duchowej dojrzałości w zrozumieniu (badaniu) podmiotu lirycznego lub epickiego w artystycznej [artystowskiej, wysokoliterackiej, wysokoartystycznej] poezji i prozie o ujęcie (koncepcję) „homo spiritualis“ i „homo spiritualis / homo Spiritus“. Pozwalają one [kategorie], poprzez ujęcie J. Komorovskiego „homo religiosus“, w sposób zróżniowany oceniać (przybliżać, prezentować) stopień [miarę] artystycznego wcielenia [tworzenia / stwarzania / urzeczywistniania / odmalowania / przedstawienia, artystycznej realizacji / ekspresji] duchowej dojrzałości, uwarunkowanej przez przekraczanie samego siebie, t.j. przez autotranscendencję. Otwierają się więc nowe możliwości śledzenia [obserwowania] artystycznego wcielania [tworzenia / stwarzania / urzeczywistniania / odmalowania / przedstawienia, realizowania / wyrażania] procesu spirytualizacji [procesu uduchowienia (artystów i ich dzieł)], zarówno w teocentrycznym, chrystocentrycznym, jak i 79 nawet w mistycznym zakotwiczeniu [zaczepieniu, zakorzenieniu] życia w jedności z Duchem Świętym. Jej efektem jest nie tylko wyższy stopieň integralności postawy [charakteru, osobowości] jako istoty duchowej [jestestwa duchowego], ale także estetyczne rozwinięcie metaempirycznego [metafizycznego, ponad-doświadczalnego] wymiaru rzeczywistości literackiej jako artystycznie stworzonego [wypowiedzianego, zinterpretowanego, przetłumaczonego, przełożonego, okazanego] numinosum w obrazie życia. Przeto, w ramach semiotycznej struktury tekstu artystycznego (literackiego) ów duchowy wymiar przenika [prześwituje] w osobistej podobiźnie [specjalnej formie] tzw. diafanii, także do kategorii czasu [liniowego, historycznego, profanicznego oraz kolistego, cyklicznego, sakralnego, świętego] (chronos – kairos) oraz przestrzeni (tzw. genius loci). Wkładem, jaki wnosi to studium, jest wprowadzenie aparatu kategorialnego [aparatu pojęciowego, koncepcyjnego], który do metodologii badań tekstu artystycznego [literackiego] wnosi możliwość zróżnicowanego zrozumienia [badania, eksplorowania] stopnia [miary] spirytualizacji [uduchowienia] w modelowaniu [formowaniu, kształtowaniu, tworzeniu, stwarzaniu] podmiotu [przedmiotu, tematu] lirycznego lub epickiego oraz rzeczywistości literackiej.

    Effect of remote ischaemic conditioning on clinical outcomes in patients with acute myocardial infarction (CONDI-2/ERIC-PPCI): a single-blind randomised controlled trial.

    No full text
    BACKGROUND: Remote ischaemic conditioning with transient ischaemia and reperfusion applied to the arm has been shown to reduce myocardial infarct size in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). We investigated whether remote ischaemic conditioning could reduce the incidence of cardiac death and hospitalisation for heart failure at 12 months. METHODS: We did an international investigator-initiated, prospective, single-blind, randomised controlled trial (CONDI-2/ERIC-PPCI) at 33 centres across the UK, Denmark, Spain, and Serbia. Patients (age >18 years) with suspected STEMI and who were eligible for PPCI were randomly allocated (1:1, stratified by centre with a permuted block method) to receive standard treatment (including a sham simulated remote ischaemic conditioning intervention at UK sites only) or remote ischaemic conditioning treatment (intermittent ischaemia and reperfusion applied to the arm through four cycles of 5-min inflation and 5-min deflation of an automated cuff device) before PPCI. Investigators responsible for data collection and outcome assessment were masked to treatment allocation. The primary combined endpoint was cardiac death or hospitalisation for heart failure at 12 months in the intention-to-treat population. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02342522) and is completed. FINDINGS: Between Nov 6, 2013, and March 31, 2018, 5401 patients were randomly allocated to either the control group (n=2701) or the remote ischaemic conditioning group (n=2700). After exclusion of patients upon hospital arrival or loss to follow-up, 2569 patients in the control group and 2546 in the intervention group were included in the intention-to-treat analysis. At 12 months post-PPCI, the Kaplan-Meier-estimated frequencies of cardiac death or hospitalisation for heart failure (the primary endpoint) were 220 (8·6%) patients in the control group and 239 (9·4%) in the remote ischaemic conditioning group (hazard ratio 1·10 [95% CI 0·91-1·32], p=0·32 for intervention versus control). No important unexpected adverse events or side effects of remote ischaemic conditioning were observed. INTERPRETATION: Remote ischaemic conditioning does not improve clinical outcomes (cardiac death or hospitalisation for heart failure) at 12 months in patients with STEMI undergoing PPCI.
