Ruptura y pervivencia de los estereotipos de género en el cuento socialista portugués (1893-1901)
Authors: Peralta García Beatriz
Published: November 2019

Ernesto da Silva (1868-1903), compositor tipógrafo de la Imprensa Nacional y militante del Partido Socialista Portugués, es autor de una obra literaria destinada a la denuncia del modelo sociopolítico y económico del capitalismo industrial decimonónico, y en paralelo, a la divulgación del ideal socialista. Sus cuentos se encuadran dentro de la corriente realista-naturalista pero en el tratamiento de los temas, y en la descripción de ambientes y situaciones, se alejan sustancialmente de ella al introducir una propuesta para la solución de los problemas de los obreros basada en una corriente de pensamiento político específica. En la construcción de sus personajes, especialmente los masculinos, el autor aportó un punto de vista original al expresar también el mundo interior de los sentimientos, muy alejado del patrón genérico consagrado socialmente para los sexos.

Infeksi menular seksual (IMS) adalah infeksi yang penularannya terutama melalui hubungan seksual. World Health Organization (WHO) pada tahun 2016 menyatakan terdapat lebih dari 1 juta orang menderita IMS setiap hari. IMS memiliki pengaruh yang sangat besar pada kesehatan seksual dan reproduktif di seluruh dunia. Komplikasi dari IMS dapat menyebabkan kemandulan, gangguan kehamilan, gangguan pertumbuhan, kanker, dan memudahkan seseorang terkena infeksi human immunodeficiency diseases (HIV). Tingkat pengetahuan masyarakat diketahui berkorelasi dengan tingginya kejadian IMS di masyarakat khususnya remaja. Peningkatan pengetahuan dengan penyebaran informasi seperti kegiatan penyuluhan tentang IMS dan komplikasinya merupakan salah satu upaya penting yang harus dilakukan untuk mengurangi angka kejadian IMS di masyarakat. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat (PPM) berupa penyuluhan ini dilakukan di SMA Negeri Jatinangor, Kecamatan Jatinangor, Kabupaten Sumedang. Peserta penyuluhan yaitu siswa dengan total peserta 50 orang. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan menggunakan kuesioner. Setiap lembar kuesioner terdiri dari 10 pertanyaan, yang meliputi definisi, jenis-jenis penyakit, cara penularan, tanda dan gejala, komplikasi, dan pencegahan IMS. Tingkat pengetahuan seluruh siswa SMA tentang IMS dan komplikasinya sebelum dilakukan penyuluhan masih cukup, yaitu 38,2% pertanyaan yang dapat dijawab dengan benar oleh peserta penyuluhan. Penyuluhan dapat meningkatkan pengetahuan siswa tentang jenis-jenis penyakit IMS dan komplikasinya. Siswa SMA diharapkan dapat menjadi ujung tombak dalam penyebaran informasi penyuluhan pada keluarga dan masyarakat, sehingga dapat menurunkan angka kejadian dan penularan IMS pada masyarakat.

Authors: Suryawan Nur
Published: November 2019

Program untuk pendidikan, penyaringan, dan konseling siswa sekolah menengah pertama pada populasi berisiko tinggi penyakit thalassemia belum termasuk ke dalam program nasional. Minimnya informasi tentang penyakit thalassemia terutama pada populasi usia reproduktif menjadi kajian penting pada penelitian ini. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui adanya peningkatan pengetahuan mengenai thalassemia setelah diberikan edukasi kepada siswa Sekolah Menengah Pertama (SMP). Penelitian merupakan analitik kuantitatif dengan pre-test dan post-test dengan populasi siswa SMP di Kecamatan Tempuran, Kabupaten Karawang. Instrumen menggunakan kuesioner yang telah tervalidasi dan dianalisis dengan menggunakan uji t. Data diambil selama pelaksanaan penelitian terpadu KKN dengan memberikan kuesioner dua kali pengambilan, yaitu dalam pre-test dan post-test diselingi dengan edukasi informasi tentang thalassemia. Data yang dianalisis adalah jenis kelamin, usia, dan perubahan pengetahuan subjek. Dari 222 siswa yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dari SMPN 1 dan SMPN 2 di Kecamatan Tempuran, 27 orang dikeluarkan dari penelitian karena mereka tidak ikut dalam salah satu test. Responden hasil pre-test baik SMPN 1 dan SMPN 2 memperoleh nilai minimum dan maksimum berturut-turut 4 dan 6. Kemudian setelah intervensi maka post test dilakukan, dengan hasil post-test yang signifikan dengan peningkatan rata-rata 1.09 (t=-3,861; p<0,001) untuk SMPN 2 dan tidak ada peningkatan pengetahuan untuk subjek di SMP 1 (t=0,913; p=0,364);. Pendidikan publik lebih lanjut dan konseling genetik yang tersebar luas sebelum pengujian sangat penting untuk keberhasilan program. Skrining individual saat masuk ke sekolah menengah pertama sebelum komitmen apapun mungkin lebih baik daripada skrining segera pra-nikah pada pasangan untuk mencegah peningkatan insidensi thalassemia di Indonesia.

Authors: Alatas Fikri , Ratih Hestiary , Kurnia Hesti , Soewandhi Sundani Nurono
Published: November 2019

Clozapine (CLO) is an effective atypical antipsychotic to control the symptoms of psychosis and schizophrenia. Clozapine has low solubility and high permeability, so it is classified as a class II in the biopharmaceutical classification system. The aim of this study was to improve the solubility and dissolution rate of clozapine by clozapine-isonicotinamide (CLO-INA) co-crystal formation. CLO-INA co-crystal was prepared by solvent-drop grinding (SDG) method using water as a solvent. Characterization of SDG result was conducted by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR).  Solubility test was performed in water at room temperature. The dissolution test was performed in 900 mL of pH 6.8 phosphate buffer solution, 50 rotation per minute of paddle rotation, and at 37±0.5 °C. The PXRD pattern of  SDG result of CLO-INA has many different peaks from its parent components, and this may indicate the co-crystal formation. The solubility of the co-crystal clozapine was fifteen folds higher than pure clozapine. The dissolution rate of CLO-INA co-crystal increased in the first 10 minutes compared to pure clozapine. Percentage of clozapine dissolved after 10 minutes from CLO-INA co-crystal and pure CLO were 10.2 and 2.4%, respectively. CLO and INA can form co-crystal by SDG method that can improve the solubility and dissolution rate of clozapine.Keywords: Clozapine, Isonicotinamide, Co-crystal, Solubility, Dissolution

Published: November 2019

Fundamentos:A ablação da região para-Hissiana é um desafi o devido ao risco de lesão inadvertida do feixe de His. A crioablação, pela sua progressão mais lenta, permite a interrupção da aplicação em caso de sinais de lesões indesejadas e adesividade do cateter durante as aplicações, o que tem tornado a crioablação o método ideal para esses pacientes. Objetivos: Demonstrar os resultados de uma série inicial de pacientes encaminhados para crioablação de vias para-hissianas. Pacientes e métodos: De abril de 2015 a agosto de 2017, 13 pacientes foram encaminhados para crioablação devido à necessidade de abordagem para-hissiana detectada em procedimentos prévios de ablação. Dos 13 pacientes, sete foram submetidos à tentativa de ablação por radiofrequência (RF) e apresentaram insucesso ou recidiva, cinco realizaram apenas estudos eletrofi siológicos, não sendo tentada a ablação, e um foi indicado primariamente. A idade média era 32 ± 16 anos. Onze pacientes tinham vias anômalas (VAs) manifestas, um oculta e um taquicardia por reentrada nodal (TRN) com sinais de bloqueio atrioventricular (AV) transitório durante RF. Aplicava-se um ciclo de 4 minutos seguido de mais um ciclo em caso de resultado positivo. Resultados: Dos 13 pacientes, 11 apresentaram sucesso agudo em eliminar a via acessória. Um paciente tinha múltiplas vias acessórias, sendo uma lateral direita e uma lateral esquerda. Nesse paciente foi possível apenas a ablação da via esquerda. Em todos os demais foi observado exuberante potencial hissiano no ponto de aplicação com sucesso. O paciente com TRN foi ablacionado na região M sem intercorrências. Foram necessárias quatro aplicações em média para eliminação da via acessória com sucesso. A temperatura local média foi de -74 ºC. Em cinco pacientes foi observada a ocorrência de bloqueio do ramo direito (BRD) de terceiro grau. Em um paciente foi interrompida a aplicação precocemente pelo BRD e não foi realizada a aplicação de bônus. Esse foi o único paciente com sucesso agudo que apresentou recidiva clínica. Em nenhum paciente foi observado BAV transitório. Não foram observadas complicações. Conclusão:A crioablação de vias para-hissianas e TRN em regiões mais circunvizinhas do His foi um método efi caz para tratamento nessa população de pacientes refratários ou recusados para tratamento por RF. A ocorrência de BRD agudo não parece um critério para interrupção das aplicações
Integration of Relational and Graph Databases Functionally
Authors: Pokorný Jaroslav
Published: November 2019

In today’s multi-model database world there is an effort to integrate databases expressed in different data models. The aim of the article is to show possibilities of integration of relational and graph databases with the help of a functional data model and its formal language – a typed lambda calculus. We suppose the existence of a data schema both for the relational and graph database. In this approach, relations are considered as characteristic functions and property graphs as sets of single-valued and multivalued functions. Then it is possible to express a query over such integrated heterogeneous database by one query expression expressed in a version of the typed lambda calculus. A more user-friendly version of such language could serve as a powerful query tool in practice. We discuss also queries sent to the integrated system and translated into queries in SQL and Cypher - the graph query language for Neo4j.

We lost a man - a person always rational, always free and gifted with the soul. We lost a man mainly in the space of language. Instead of a human is “individual” - a measure. This process has already accelerated in the second half of the 19th century. There is no human being anymore, there are individuals with a definable quality, and to segregate and destroy those who do not correspond to the desired image. Also in globally meant social aid. There is a need to go back to seeing the face of each human. Restore everyone.
Selected Problems of Education in Europe at the Turn of XX and XXI Century in the Case Law of European Tribunals
Authors: Górska-Szymczak Joanna
Published: November 2019

The aim of this article is to analyze which issues, and why, influenced the systems of education at the turn of XX and XXI century to the extent that led to the need of resolving them at the level of international tribunals in Europe - the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) and the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR). Within the case law of the CJEU, the analysis was based on the cases concerning the right to education of migrant children and the right of the holder of a secondary education diploma awarded in a Member State to access the higher education institution in another Member State. As far as the case law of the ECtHR is concerned, the author considers the cases dealing with the issue of wearing headscarves and displaying crucifixes in educational institutions in the context of the freedom of religion, the case with a problem of an alternative for religious education in public school and the cases on the discrimination in education. The conclusion is that the systems of education are vulnerable to challenges faced by the entire society and reflect the changes undergoing within it.

Authors: Velikonja Nevenka Kregar
Published: November 2019

Introduction. Interdisciplinarity and interprofessional networking are important basis for a successful, recognizable and innovative research. Nursing research is at the intersection of health, biomedical and social sciences. Demographic trends in developed countries require integration of health and social services.

Aim. To examine the trend of interdisciplinary approach in terms of addressing social care in connection with nursing care and especially in the field of nursing care of the elderly, we analyzed scientific publications in this field over the period 1998-2018 in the PubMed database.

Discussion. The analysis showed that the number of scientific publications considering social care aspect is growing relatively faster in comparison to those addressing nursing care, especially when addressing elderly population. Development of study programmes should follow the needs of the society so that universities will educate professionals that will be able to tackle emerging problems and issues. Involvement of students in the research projects, dealing with relevant health and social care issues can significantly contribute to gaining required competences.

Conclusions. The obtained publication data are reflecting the current trends of integration of health and social care services in practice and research. Interdisciplinary study programmes as well as engagement of students into relevant research projects are important for the efficient and quality development of care services.

Conclusion. Autologous PRP is safe and effective in treatment-resistant forms of AA demonstrated in many case reports; therefore it deserves further study with randomized, placebo-controlled trials.
Analysis of Potentially Inappropriate Drug Prescribing in Hospitalized Elderly Patients
Authors: Kojicic Ksenija
Published: November 2019

The study was conducted at the Clinical Centre Kragujevac, during the period March-May 2016. The study population consisted of patients older than 65 that were treated at different departments of the Clinic for Internal Medicine. Data were collected from hospital medical records of patients and anonymous semi-structured questionnaires. STOPP (screening tool of older people's prescriptions)/ START (screening tool to alert to right treatment) criteria from 2014 were used to monitor the outcome of interest. Based on the outcome PIM (potentially inappropriate drugs)/PPO (potential prescribing omissions), respondents were divided into groups of cases - patients to whom at least one potentially inappropriate drug determined by STOPP criteria was prescribed and those with at least one potential prescribing omission determined by START criteria. Control groups were patients without these outcomes. Most commonly, PIM was detected in the treatment of cardiovascular system diseases (27.12%), followed by the use of drugs that predispose falls in elderly (20.34%). The most important risk factors for the occurrence of PIM were female gender (OR=3.27; 95% CI 1.01-10.64), polypharmacy (5-8 drugs used simultaneously) (OR=3.10; 95% CI 1.11-12.04) and with whom the patient lives (OR=11.26; 95% CI 1.46-86.68). The use of STOPP/START criteria is proved to be efficient in the detection of PIM/PPO at the secondary level of health care. Full attention should always be paid to patients who are at the highest risk for inappropriate drug prescription. Doctors should make their decisions conscientiously and in line with clinical evidence, not blindly believing the pharmaceutical representatives.
The Connection of Periodontal Disease and Diabetes Mellitus: The Role of Matrix Metalloproteinases and Oxidative Stress
Authors: Stanisic Dragana , Obradovic Radmila , Vujovic Sanja , Jovanovic Milica , Zivkovic Vladimir
Published: November 2019

Diabetes mellitus, a chronic disease considered by the World Health Organization to be an epidemic, is now recognized as one of the factors behind the onset of periodontal disease. The connection between periodontal disease, which is an irreversible inflammatory disease of the supporting tissue of the teeth, and systemic diseases is reflected in the existence of common risk factors, subgingival dental biofilm, as a constant source of proinflamma-tory cytokines synthesized intensely in inflammatory periodontium. Diabetes mellitus leads to increased oxidative stress in periodontal tissues causing worsening of the disease and periodontopathy exacerbates deficiency of pancreatic β-cells. The most important role in primary inflammatory response in the pathogenesis of periodontopathy is played by neutrophils. Neutrophils cause periodontium destruction by the release of enzymes (matrix metalloproteinases), cytotoxic substances (free radicals, reactive oxygen and nitrogen species) and the expression of membrane receptors. Matrix metalloproteinases within the “protease network” are critical to many physiological and pathological processes, including immunity, inflammation, bone resorption and wound healing. Matrix metalloproteinases levels are elevated in patients with metabolic syndrome and diabetes mellitus, which may contribute to more frequent complications. In this paper, the review of available literature data shows the correlation between periodontal disease and diabetes mellitus, as well as the role of matrix metalloproteinases and oxidative stress in these. In this regard, determining the value of matrix metalloproteinases may be helpful in the diagnosis of periodontal disease complicated by diabetes mellitus. Also, the parameters of oxidative stress could help to clarify the mechanisms of pathogenesis and etiology of periodontal disease, or indicate the potential benefit of antioxidant supplementation in these individuals. As the role of matrix metalloproteinases has not been fully clarified in the pathogenesis of periodontopathy, additional studies will be needed to indicate their importance.
THE TACTIC OF ASSESSMENT IN ECONOMIC DISCOURSE (THE CONCEPT OF SINGLE MARKET)
Authors: Radyuk A. V.
Published: November 2019

The aim of the article is to describe the trends ongoing in modern economic discourse. Economic discourse is considered to be a part of business discourse texts united by the topic of commerce and economic relations. The author looks into speech influence means used by the participants of online communication in social media posts. The work is carried out in the framework of functional pragmatic paradigm. Studying the correlation between the speech forms and their functions, this approach allows to identify the main speech strategies and tactics used by specialists in economics and ordinary people discussing economic issues. The tactic of assessment is the object of the current study. The excerpts from social media involving debate on single market issue were chosen by method of continuous sampling. They included the posts from accounts of European Union Commission, EU Finance, Confederation of British Industry, BBC Politics et al. The author singles out speech means characterizing the phenomenon from a positive and negative perspective. They are treated as a reflection of collective consciousness of Europeans and demonstrate an attitude of doubt and skepticism towards the single market. To conclude, online communication in the field of economics and business proves to be a valuable object for linguistic research. New mass media play an important role in formation of discourse field and a powerful tool for expressing public opinion.
MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL DISCOURSE WITHIN THE COGNITIVE LINGUISTIC ANALYSIS FRAMEWORK
Authors: Vishnyakova E. A. , Vishnyakova O. D. , Kiseleva A. V.
Published: November 2019

Research into professional discourse is closely connected with the multilayer analysis of ESP within the cognitive linguistic framework. It is very important to consider the anthropocentric focus of the cognitive discursive paradigm and the special attention traditionally paid to the linguistic representation of certain mental structures which serve as a basis for professional communication. Medical discourse studies have a lot to do with the communicative activity involving human life and health, that is why medical discourse needs to be analyzed from the viewpoints of anthropocentric and functional linguistic approaches, as research into various kinds of verbal interactions encompasses both professional communication among specialists and patient-doctor communication, a patient functioning simultaneously as the subject and the recipient of medical aid. As far as specific mental structures are concerned, verbal expressiveness depends on the functional properties of corresponding language units, their pragmatic and communicative characteristics, which tend to be manifested in conceptual metaphorical representation. The aim of this article is to analyze vast empirical material and single out the most significant cognitive linguistic peculiarities of modern English medical discourse. Cognitive linguistic approach allows scientists to define the essence of professional languages as well as to contemplate other research prospects in the context of medical discourse analysis.

Published: November 2019

The development of science and technology is one way to replace the method of human interaction with computers, one of which is to provide voice input. Conversion of sound into text form with the Backpropagation method can be understood and realized through feature extraction, including the use of Linear Predictive Coding (LPC). Linear Predictive Coding is one way to represent the signal in obtaining the features of each sound pattern. In brief, the way this speech recognition system worked was by inputting human voice through a microphone (analog signal) which then sampled with a sampling speed of 8000 Hz so that it became a digital signal with the assistance of sound card on the computer. The digital signal from the sample then entered the initial process using LPC, so that several LPC coefficients were obtained. The LPC outputs were then trained using the Backpropagation learning method. The results of the learning were classified with a word and stored in a database afterwards. The results of the test were in the form of an introduction program that able display the voice plots. the results of speech recognition with voice recognition percentage of respondents in the database iss 80% of the 100 data in the test in Real Time

Note of Caution for the Aqueous Behavior of Metal-based Drug Candidates
Authors: Notaro Anna , Gasser Gilles , Castonguay Annie
Published: November 2019

Poor aqueous solubility is one of the recurrent drawbacks of many compounds in medicinal chemistry. To overcome this limitation, the dilution of drug candidates from stock solutions is common practice. However, the precise characterisation of these compounds in aqueous solutions is often neglected, leading to some uncertainties regarding the nature of the actual active species. In this communication, we demonstrate that two ruthenium complexes previously reported by our group for their chemotherapeutic potential against cancer, namely [Ru(DIP)2(sq)](PF6) and [Ru(DIP)2(3-methoxysq)](PF6), where DIP is 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline, sq = semiquinonate and 3-methoxysq = 3-methoxysemiquinonate, form colloids in waterDMSO (1% v/v) mixtures that are invisible to the naked eyes. [Ru(DIP)2(3- methoxysq)](PF6) was found to form a highly stable and monodispersed colloid with nanoaggregates of ~25 nm. In contrast, [Ru(DIP)2(sq)](PF6) was found to form large reticulates of mostly spherical aggregates which size was found to increase over time. The difference in size and shape distribution of drug candidates is of tremendous significance as the study of their biological activity might be severely affected. Overall, we strongly believe that these observations should be taken into account by the scientific community working on the development of metal-based drugs with poor water solubility.

Doğal ve Yapay Tatlandırıcıların Glukoz İntoleransı, Karaciğer Enzimleri ve Oksidatif Stres Üzerine Etkisi
Authors: PEHLİVAN ZENGİN Merve , KÖKSAL Eda
Published: November 2019

ÖzetSon
zamanlarda düşük enerjili ya da enerjisiz tatlandırıcılar enerji ve glisemik
etkilerden uzak oldukları gerekçesi ile şeker ikamesi olarak oldukça sık
kullanılmaktadırlar. Bu tatlandırıcı türlerinin saf olarak kullanılması dışında
günümüzde gıda ürünlerinin içerisinde sıkça bulunmaları tüketiciler tarafından
alımını oldukça artırabilmektedir. Tatlandırıcılar sağlık üzerine etkileri
açısından doğal ve yapay tatlandırıcılar olarak ikiye ayrılmaktadır. Deney
hayvanlarında yapılan çalışmalarda yapay tatlandırıcı tüketimi enerji dengesini
bozarak abdominal obezite, insülin direnci ve/veya bozulmuş glukoz toleransı
dahil olmak üzere birçok metabolik sendrom bileşeni ile ilişkilendirilmektedir.
Ayrıca karaciğer enzimleri ve oksidatif stres üzerine olumsuz etkisi olduğu da
bildirilmektedir. Ancak yapay tatlandırıcıların glukoz intoleransını artırdığı,
karaciğer enzimlerini ve oksidatif stres parametrelerini olumsuz etkilediğine
dair çalışmaların yanında anlamlı sonuç bulunamayan çalışmalarda mevcuttur.  Bunun yanında doğal tatlandırıcıların insülin
duyarlılığını artırdığı, kan glukozu üzerinde yararlı etkilerinin olduğu,
karaciğer enzimleri ve oksidatif stres parametrelerini azaltıcı bir rol
oynadıkları belirli çalışmalarda bildirilmektedir. Fakat doğal
tatlandırıcıların bu parametreler üzerinde anlamlı etkisinin olmadığına dair
çalışmalarda mevcuttur. Bu nedenle bu derlemede doğal ve yapay tatlandırıcıların
glukoz intoleransı, karaciğer enzimleri ve oksidatif stres üzerine olan
etkilerine yönelik çalışmaların derlenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Review on Chronic Exposure of Acrylamide Causes a Neurotoxicity Risk
Authors: Maddu Narendra , Begum S. Fareeda
Published: November 2019

The exposure and inhalation of acrylamide (ACR) are not safe to the human health leading to the potential neurotoxicity. ACR is widely used in biochemical techniques and highly occurs in processing foods such as potato chips prepared at high temperatures. ACR is formed from reducing sugars and asparagine through the Maillard reaction. It exerts various harmful and toxic effects such as neurotoxicity both in humans and animal studies. The extensive damage of synaptic proteins, the formation of ACR-DNA adducts, degeneration of motor neurons, neurofilament reduction, are the most common neurological symptoms. The main metabolite of ACR metabolism is glycidamide, and it causes harmful effects as same as ACR. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the neurotoxic effects of ACR on various regions of the brain and its different mechanistic pathways that are involved in ACR neurotoxicity. The consumption of ACR-containing foods and its exposure are reduced by the human, leading to the reduction of toxic effects associated with ACR.
