“…RFs build a forest of decision trees, and each tree is a subset based on a different feature of the data, thus improving the stability of data processing. Classification of data based on the weight of each decision tree has been successfully applied in several fields for processing and analysing complex data [ 31 ]. In this study, the COVID‐19 datasets (GEO accession IDs GSE166424, and GSE184401) were integrated, and the DEGs in the severe and mild disease groups were identified using the limma package.…”

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) has developed into a global health crisis. Pulmonary fibrosis, as one of the complications of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection, deserves attention. As COVID‐19 is a new clinical entity that is constantly evolving, and many aspects of disease are remain unknown. The datasets of COVID‐19 and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus. The hub genes were screened out using the Random Forest (RF) algorithm depending on the severity of patients with COVID‐19. A risk prediction model was developed to assess the prognosis of patients infected with SARS‐CoV‐2, which was evaluated by another dataset. Six genes (named NELL2, GPR183, S100A8, ALPL, CD177, and IL1R2) may be associated with the development of PF in patients with severe SARS‐CoV‐2 infection. S100A8 is thought to be an important target gene that is closely associated with COVID‐19 and pulmonary fibrosis. Construction of a neural network model was successfully predicted the prognosis of patients with COVID‐19. With the increasing availability of COVID‐19 datasets, bioinformatic methods can provide possible predictive targets for the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of the disease and show intervention directions for the development of clinical drugs and vaccines.

“…Today's North Korea can be compared to other countries that have also experienced a historical transition from non-democratic communism to capitalism, a market economy, greater access to outside culture and cultural practice askance to the hegemonic mixture of individualism (Cathcart et al, 2017). The spread of the global media and its intersecting with popular consumer culture has profoundly influenced the aspirations, attitudes and mobility of citizens inside the closed societies of Eastern and Central Europe (Drakulic, 2016;Mattelart, 1999;Wagnleitner, 1994). North Korea's ongoing path today is partly similar to the past experience of China in the late 1970s, when foreign media, including illicit, transnational cultural flows, played an important role in accelerating the country's openness and profound changes in the daily lives of Chinese people (Hong, 1998).…”

Illicit media, reflexivity and sociocultural change in North Korea

Since the late 1990s the transnational spread of South Korean media, known as the Korean Wave or Hallyu, has filtered into North Korea through smuggling and black markets. The act of consuming or distributing foreign media contents is considered to be a grave crime against the state. Based on qualitative in-depth interviews with 60 North Koreans, this empirical study draws attention to North Korea's changing media culture in a digital age and addresses the sociocultural implications as the society is going through remarkable change from below at this important historical moment. The article argues for the significance of illicit media culture in the stimulation of everyday reflexivity and sociocultural change by demonstrating how reflexivity operates as an emotional and active mode of learning in North Korean society.

“…It was possible to increase parallel distribution networks to the point that viewers do not need to rely on mainstream industry to have access to content that otherwise would be beyond linguistic, geographical, or political boundaries, thus reconfiguring global audiences (Orrego-Carmona, 2018). Even though this process contributed to an increased global presence of American content, it also allowed the rise of new contra-flows of non-Western content (Mattelart, 2016).…”

The role of online fan communities in the popularization of Turkish TV dramas in Brazil

In just over a decade, the transnational expansion of Turkish media industry reached regions geographically and culturally distant from Turkey, thus establishing Turkish dramas as a prominent media contra-flow. In Brazil, the rise of Turkish dramas is supported by informal distribution: many online fan communities translate, add subtitles, and distribute episodes without monetary profit, which is a practice known as fansubbing. In this research, I focus on the biggest Brazilian fansubbing community of Turkish dramas to investigate the complexity behind this practice from the perspectives of distribution and reception. Through online questionnaires, a virtual ethnography, and in-depth interviews, I explore how these communities operate and impact the daily lives of audiences. Findings point out that by making Turkish content more accessible, they are reshaping media practices taking the place of national broadcasters and subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) services in the popularization of Turkish dramas in Brazil.
