This article aims to describe the historical development of comparative literature and its current issues. Comparative literature is a mandatory course in the Indonesian language and literature study program in most Indonesian universities. There are at least six books used as common references in teaching comparative literature in Indonesia. However, these books have not covered recent development in comparative literature, especially the emergence of Chinese school and some new directions within comparative literature. This literature review article collects references from selective authoritative sources on the internet to describe the historical development of comparative literature and its current issues. This article shows that the expansions in comparative literature are intricate with deconstruction and reconstruction of world literature, dialogue and the meeting between West and East, and the presence of the digital age. From the dialogue on world literature and West meeting East vice versa, the Chinese school has its foundation, whilst the presence of the digital age makes comparative literature have new things to explore and work on the usage of the different medium in an umbrella term, intermediality.

Probiotics are defined as live microorganisms that when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit to the host. Their positive supplementation outcomes on several gastrointestinal disorders are well defined. Nevertheless, their actions are not limited to the gut, but may also impart their beneficial effects at distant sites and organs. In this regard, in this review article we: (i) comprehensively describe the main mechanisms of action of probiotics at distant sites, including bones, skin, and brain; (ii) critically present their therapeutic potential against bone, skin, and neuronal diseases (e.g., osteoporosis, non-healing wounds and autoimmune skin illnesses, mood, behavior, memory, and cognitive impairments); (iii) address the current gaps in the preclinical and clinical research; and (iv) indicate new research directions and suggest future investigations.

Fast Rates

The human heart normally beats at a fairly regular rate of once per second. Under abnormal conditions, however, the heart may beat irregularly, at fast rates, leading quickly to death. The most dangerous of these irregular heart rhythms are due to recirculating electrical waves of activity. However, the detailed mechanisms of these “reentrant arrhythmias” are unclear. It has been suggested that these recirculating waves are spiral waves. This review article presents recent studies of the heart providing evidence that reentrant arrhythmias result from spiral waves of electrical activity. Spiral waves are generic to many excitable media, therefore the theory of spiral waves is well developed and also reviewed herein. Many of the predictions of spiral wave theory are being realized in the heart and leading investigators in new directions.

Simple Systems

In this short review article we discuss the use of Ising lattice model as a testbed for improvement of theory of both homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation theory. First we briefly overview the classical nucleation theory (CNT), and two typical simple systems on which simulations are performed - hard spheres, and Ising lattice model. Than we overview some results obtained by this approach and point to possible new directions of research and improvement.
