Food selection of maize weevil Sitophilus Zeamais (motschulsky)
Authors: Dzuong Nguyen Van , Long Khuat Dang
Published: June 2020

The instintive behaviour exhibited by insects in the selecting  food is always a matter of  interests to entomologists, and it is one of the fundamental principles underlining the application of entomology to agriculture, horticulture and forestry. Food seclection is an important characteristic of insects that help them survive in periods with insufficient foods.Three grain types of food, maize grain, long-grain rice and soybean grain, were used in this sudy for detecting food selection behaviours of maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais. Grains were kept in box traps put in the different stores in Son La during 90 days. The result showed that maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais, prefered traps with maize grains (71.4%) considerably more than ones with long-grain rice (14.3%) and soybean grain (14.3%). Meanwhile, the cornsap beetle, Carpophilus dimidiatus, was mostly observed in maize grain (98.5%) and to a lesser degree, in soybean grain (1.5%); and the dried-fruit beetle, Carpophilus hemipterus, was abundantly observed in maize grain (93.1%) and less in soybean grain (6.9%). The red flour, Tribolium castaneum, also tended to select all the three food grain, i.e. maize grain: 53.5%, long-rice grain: 35.2%, and soybean grain: 11.3%.Comparing f beetle individuals captured on three types of food grains showed that the maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais, is the most abundant species. The percentage this store beetle among all beetles observed in maize, soybean grains and long-rice grains were 57.0%, 84.9% and 27.6%, respectively. Interestingly, Ahasverus advena, foreign grain beetle, occurred abundantly on long-rice gain (61.7%), i.e. this grain is a suitable food for the development of this beetle.

Authors: Hoang Nguyen Huy , Dung Vu Chi , Tung Nguyen Van , Lan Nguyen Ngoc , Dung Ha Thi
Published: June 2020

Glycogen storage disease type Ia (GSD Ia), a rare autosomal inherited disorder, is characterized by accumulation of excessive glycogen and fat in the liver. Primary symptoms of GSD Ia include hypoglycemia; metabolic acidosis; elevated levels of lactate, uric acid and lipids; hepatomagaly and growth retardation. Glycogen storage disease type Ia was caused by mutations in the G6PC gene. In this study, mutations in a Vietnamese patient with glycogen storage disease type Ia were analyzed using the whole exome sequencing method. A missense mutation c.356A>T (p.His119Leu) in the G6PC gene of the patient was identified in exon 3. Genetic analysis confirmed that this mutation was present under homozygous form In-silico analyses using SIFT and Mutation Taster confirmed the damaging effects of this mutations on the function of the proteins. This result enriches knowledge of the G6PC gene mutation spectrum and provides genetic data for further studies on glycogen storage disease type Ia in Viet Nam.
Hereditary characteristics of the S339L mutation in a patient with maple syrup urine disease in Vietnam
Authors: Huong Nguyen Thi Thu , Dung Vu Chi , Ngan Nguyen Thi Thanh , Thoa Nguyen Kim , Hoang Nguyen Huy
Published: June 2020

Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is an autosomal recessive inherited metabolic disorder caused by malfunction of the branched-chain α-ketoacid dehydrogenase complex (BCKDH). This enzyme complex participates in the catalyzing metabolisms of the branched-chain α-ketoacids, the second step of the degradation of branched-chain amino acids. Impaired activities of the BCKAD complex lead to an increase of the levels of branched- chain amino acid such as leucine, valine, and isoleucine in the blood. In children with maple syrup urine disease, catalysis of the metabolisms of some amino acids failed to be implemented, leading to an accumulation of the amino acids which has been shown as one of the causes of neurological complications, intellectual disabilities, and nervous paralysis or even death. Pathogenic mutations normally occur in BCKDHA, BCKDHB, DBT and DLD genes which encode the E1α, E1β, and E2 subunits of the BCKDH complex. In the present study, a homozygous mutation in the BCKDHB gene (c. 1016C>T) in a pediatric patient with MSUD diagnosed at The National Hospital of Pediatrics was identified using whole exome and Sanger sequencing methods. As a result, the inheritance of the homozygous mutation related to MSUD in BCKDHB gene within the pedigree of the patient’s family was determined. The results indicated that the mutation in the BCKDHB gene was inherited from both of the patient’s parents. In addition, this finding provides an important scientific basis to  researches on MSUD in the Vietnamese population.

Published: June 2020

Wine industry is considered to be a traditional industry, where the potential for growth is still important for the existing wine producers and new entrants, based on strategies for increasing international awareness, technological innovation and financing program. The paper aims to explore the evolution of the determinants of wine and vineyards industry from a macroeconomic perspective, in order to assess the efficiency of the National Support Programmes, financed by the European Union. The exploration intends to cover the tendency of the following indicators: areas under vines, areas under vines for wines, wine producers, wine consumers, wine imports and wine exports, in order to explore new opportunities for growth and develop future orientation. Moreover, the analysis intends to address the importance of National Support Programmes 2009-2013; 2014-2018; 2019-2023, whose evolution is currently considered a key research question in the field. Romania is an important European country from the point of view of wine industry, the various wines it produces are known for their quality. With an area of around 180.000 ha cultivated with vines which, in 2016, represented 1,42% of its agricultural area and 2,28% of arable area, Romania ranks the 5th position in the European Union, after Spain, Italy, France and Portugal. However, the countries that took advantage of the financial funds allocated to the National Support Programmes, were: Italy, Spain and France, which together spent more than 70% of the total amount for each of these programmes.

Published: June 2020

Microelements are inorganic compounds involved in the synthesis of enzymes and biologically active substances. To evaluate the physiological responses of maize to ZnSO4 and FeSO4 under drought stress, a field experiment was conducted on maize plants grown under different soil moistures and treated with foliar ZnSO4 and FeSO4 applications. Drought stress especially at early seed growth stage significantly reduced grain yield and Fv/Fm ratio; however, the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione reductase (GR) was enhanced under drought stress. Foliar applied ZnSO4 and FeSO4 boosted the grain yield under non irrigation at vegetative growth stage and at early seed growth stage, respectively.  Between grain yield and MDA concentration (r=­ -0.73), superoxide dismutase (r= -0.57), peroxidase (r= -0.49), H2O2 (r= -0.67) and catalase enzyme (r= -0.42) significant and negative correlation were observed. Combined application of ZnSO4 and FeSO4 resulted in alleviation of maize plant drought stress by Zn and Fe-mediated improvement in photosynthetic attributes. In addition, the foliar application of ZnSO4 and FeSO4 regulated physiological processes in maize plants and alleviated the adverse effects of water stress. According to the results, ZnSO4 and FeSO4 could be used for improving maize growth under drought stress.
Collective growth patterns reveal the high growing potential of older silver fir trees in a primeval forest in Romania’s Southern Carpathians
Authors: HORODNIC Sergiu A. , ROIBU Cătălin C.
Published: June 2020

The trees’ ability to respond and adjust to very different growing conditions during their lifespans varies depending on tree species and the site-specific situations. Identifying the underlying mechanisms and the individual drivers that may affect the patterns of tree growth is crucial in ecological and economic terms. How long can forest trees grow and sustain biomass accumulation, with increasing age, is still under debate. In order to determine the factors that influence growth releases for silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) trees in a temperate old-growth forest of Romania's Southern Carpathians, an analysis of radial and basal area growth patterns was initiated. Dendroecological methods were used to reconstruct radial growth both at the individual level, but especially at the group level, in four clusters obtained by a prior k-cluster analysis depending on social status. The study results showed that the growth rate of older trees increases continuously for this species at stand level, even after the typical harvesting age in managed forests. Although the direction and intensity of the climate-growth correlations at individual level were very different, the considered climatic variables explaining little to none of the growth variation, the cumulative response of the analysed trees to climate change is directly correlated with the mean July-August temperature, confirming the capacity of the silver fir to tolerate drought. Our results demonstrate that the trees of the same species are able to obtain together a temporal plasticity in strategies, exceeding the adaptability of individuals considered separately and suggest the positive impact of facilitative intraspecific interactions on forest growth.
Effect of pretreatments on germination of seeds of the timber plant, Terminalia ivorensis and Mansonnia altissima (A. Chev.)

Published: June 2020

Terminalia ivorensis and Mansonnia altissima is an important tropical timber tree plant, but poor germination is an important factor militating its regeneration. Effects of pretreatments on germination of seeds of Terminalia ivorensis and Mansonia altissima were studied. Four hundered and eighty matured seeds of Terminalia ivorensis and three hundred and sixty seeds of Mansonia altissima were obtained from Forest Reserve Institute of Nigeria (FRIN), Ibadan. The seeds were divided into twenty-one equal portions of 10 seeds each. Twelve pretreatments were investigated on Terminalia ivorensis and nine pretreatments on Mansonia altissima. The seeds were sown inside plastic basket containing sterilized river sand under high humidity propagator with four replicates each. Germination counts were taken daily for eighty days. Percentage germination was computed for each treatment and the data were subjected to analysis of variance. Germination was first observed among the scarified Terminalia ivorensis seeds at 14 days after sowing (DAS) and this treatment group had the highest percentage germination of 82.5%, while seeds soaked in hot water recorded the least germination. Germination was first observed in decoated Mansonia altissima and this treatment group had the highest percentage germination of 45%, whereas the least was observed among the treatments with H­2SO4. The effect of pretreatment was highly significant (p≤0.05) on the germination of both species. It is therefore recommended that mechanical scarification of Terminalia ivorensis and decoating seed of Mansonia altissima will enhance the germination of the two species.

Authors: AGINA Onyinyechukwu A. , ANI Ezinne C.
Published: June 2020

The kidneys maintain homeostasis and this function is compromised in hypoxic conditions. Hematology and serum biochemistry evaluations were performed on a 17-year old Nigerian part-Arab stallion, who was observed to be docile, cachexic, and has bilateral ocular mucus discharge. Ticks were seen attached around the inguinal region. The mucous membrane of the eyes was congested, animal was partially insensitive to its environment and had an abnormal posture and gait. Blood samples for hematology and clinical biochemistry analyses were collected from the jugular vein. Hematology and serum biochemistry determinations followed standard procedures. Hematological analysis revealed that the stallion had secondary absolute polycythemia, low erythrocyte sedimentation rate. The mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration and total leukocyte count were within the respective reference ranges. The clinical biochemistry profile of the horse showed normal serum activity of alanine aminotransferase and elevated serum activities of aspartate aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase, normal serum total protein, albumin, decreased serum globulin concentrations, with a high albumin: globulin (A/G) ratio. The stallion also had normal total cholesterol level and an abnormally high serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels. These findings were suggestive of hypoxia-induced pre-renal azotemia.

Growing concern about climatic influence on plants reproductive biology leads to a recent surge. Climate affects directly floral morphology of plants on this basis current study summarizes climatic effects on floral or reproductive biology of Solanum nigrum L. Effect of summer, rainy and winter seasons were recorded on floral morphology, pollens viability & germination, pollen tube growth, fruit-set percentage during investigations which were subjected to one factorial analysis of variance (ANOVA) and least significant differences at p < 0.05. Climatic conditions affect floral morphology and produce polymorphism in specific conditions. In rainy and winter seasons, polymorphism was recorded in petals, stamens and pistil which is a first record of climatic influence on polymorphism. Rainy season reported for their maximum flowers numbers which promote a huge fruit-set percentage in open pollination as compared with self and cross pollination. This study confirms the effect of various climates on different floral parts which produce polymorphism along with growth, germination, length, etc. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) study indicated the climatic variations on microscopic observations.

Authors: DİLEK Serkan , KESGİNGÖZ Hayrettin
Published: June 2020

Structure-Conduct-Performance Analysis states that market structure has an impact on firm behaviour and market performance. In other words competitive market structure affects firms’ and market performance in positive manner. Concentration ratios which are element of market structure, also affects market performance. There is both difference as well as similarities between competition of football teams and of firms. It is thought that these similarities affect the success of football teams in international arena. The aim of this research is to discuss whether European national league structure affects the performance of teams in Champions League and European League. To this aim, concentration ratios in European national leagues are calculated by using Herfindahl-Hirschman index. These results are interpreted by considering the differences between competition of football teams and of firms. National leagues (Spain, England, Germany, Italy, France, Netherland, Portugal, Belgium, Russia and Turkey) in which football teams are successful in Champions league and European League are studied. It is revealed that concentration ratios are low except England Premier League and have increased at last years. Additionally, the hypothesis which says that as concentration in national leagues decreases the success of teams in international arena increases couldn’t be confirmed.

Roma Din Anlayışı Bağlamında Hıristiyanların Ateistlikle Suçlanması ve Hıristiyan Apologların Karşı Cevapları
Authors: SÖNMEZ Zekiye
Published: June 2020

Roma dininin geçmişi, Roma’nın kuruluş tarihi M.Ö.753/752’ye kadar eskiye dayanmakta ve Batı Roma’nın yıkıldığı M.S. 476’da son bulduğu kabul edilmektedir. Roma dini, belirsiz dinsel unsurlar içeren, sihir ve büyünün hâkim olduğu bir dönemden aile ve atalar kültüne, oradan devlet ve imparator kültüne doğru gelişim göstermiştir. Gelişim sürecinde o, karşılaştığı dinî inançları ve tanrı modellerini kendi bünyesine dahil ederek çok tanrılı geleneksel bir yapıya dönüşmüştür. İmparatorluk döneminde geleneksel din anlayışının yanı sıra ölmüş ve yaşayan imparatorlara tapınma kültü de gelişmiştir. Geleneksel din ve tanrı anlayışına karşı çıkan ve tanrılara kült sunmayan Hıristiyanlar, “ateist” olmakla suçlanmıştır. Ancak Hıristiyan Apologlar, Roma’nın geleneksel din anlayışının yanlışlığını ve Hıristiyanlığın üstünlüğünü mantıkî ve teolojik delillerle, kendilerine yöneltilen suçlamalara cevap vermiştir. Bu çalışmada, geleneksel Roma din ve tanrı anlayışından, Hıristiyanlara yöneltilen ateizm suçlamalarının sebeplerinden ve Hıristiyan apologların bunlara karşı cevaplarından söz edilecektir.

Global Criterion Approach for the Solution of Multiple Criteria Data Envelopment Analysis Model: An Application at Packaging Waste Collection and Separation Facilities
Authors: ARSU Talip , UMARUSMAN Nurullah
Published: June 2020

Adverse effects of packaging waste on the environment and economic losses resulting from the use of untouched resources have made the recycling process compulsory. The success of the collection and separation of packaging waste, which are the most important phases in the recycling process, depends on the effective management of these processes. In this paper, we analyzed the efficiency of 14 collection and separation facilities. A Global- Multiple Criteria Data Envelopment Analysis model (G-MCDEA) based on a global criterion method was proposed for the solution of the multiple criteria data envelopment analysis model, which is organized as a three-objective multiple objective linear programming model. With the proposed model, the three objective functions were transformed into a single objective function, and the normalized grades of the distance from the ideal solution was calculated for each decision making unit. In this was it was determined which objective was closer to the global activity achieved.
Experience of switching to NovoEight: views of people with haemophilia
Authors: Pollard Debra , Khair Kate , Holland Mike
Published: June 2020

Management of haemophilia A requires administration of factor VIII therapy which, for those with severe haemophilia A in the UK, is predominantly self-administered at home in a prophylactic regimen to prevent or minimise bleeding. The UK undertakes a national tendering process every three years to ensure access to current and new therapies at a cost-effective price, through contracting for large volumes from individual suppliers. This means that some products may no longer be available and that new products can enter the UK market at any tendering stage.

In the latest tendering round, in 2018, more than one product was withdrawn from the UK market and a new product (NovoEight®; Novo Nordisk) was added to the prescribing list. This meant people with haemophilia having to change products. The experience of 77 people with haemophilia or their carers who changed treatment products during this process was captured by questionnaires administered by haemophilia nurses from 12 treatment centres. Overall, although people with haemophilia felt that they had little influence in decision making about changing to NovoEight, they were confident with their new treatment including packaging and accessories for administration. This was seen more in those who switched from plasma-derived products where ease of infusion was rated highly. Users’ views of haemophilia treatment should be collected at times of change to identify facilitators and barriers experienced in self-management
L2 Motivation, Demographic Variables, and Chinese Proficiency among Adult Learners of Chinese
Authors: Liu Meihua
Published: June 2020

The present research explored L2 motivation, demographic variables and Chinese proficiency among adult learners of Chinese as a second language. A total of 83 international students studying in a Chinese university in Beijing answered the 54-item L2MSS questionnaire and a Demographic Questionnaire. Analyses of the data revealed the following findings: a) the L2MSS scales were significantly highly related to one another and highly reliable, b) ideal L2 self was significantly correlated with gender and the number of foreign languages learned (NFLL); integrativeness was significantly positively related to NFLL, c) the whole sample, as well as male and female participants, scored high on all L2MSS scales and had (great) motivation to study Chinese, d) female respondents held significantly more favorable perceptions of their ideal selves than their male peers, and e) L2SSM had no predictive effect or interactive effect with demographic variables on the students’ Chinese proficiency. Nevertheless, length of stay in China and gender proved to be powerful positive predictors for the latter. Evidently, the L2MSS scales are important dimensions of L2 motivation and closely related to second/foreign language learning. Understandably, it is necessary to continuously explore, understand and enhance students’ L2 motivation.

Effect of the Level of Irradiance on Growth and Content of Photosynthetic Pigments of Canadian Elodea (Elodea canadensis) in Model System “Water-Bottom Sediments”
Authors: Aleksandrova Yuliyana V. , Zotina Tatiana A. , Gaevsky Nikolay A.
Published: June 2020

Bioassays based on aquatic plants are a convenient tool for studying the quality of bottom sediments. One of the stages in the development of a bioassay is the selection of optimal growth conditions for indicator plants in a model test system. Response of indicator physiological endpoints of Canadian waterweed (Elodea canadensis) to light flux density was investigated to determine optimal irradiance level in a “water – sediment” model system, proposed previously for contact bioassay of natural bulk bottom sediments. Based on the response of shoot and root growth (length and weight), and concentration and ratio of photosynthetic pigments (chl. a, chl. b, and carotenoids) of Elodea to the change of light flux density, no limitation or inhibition of growth and photosynthesis of Elodea was revealed at light flux density from 56 to 143 μmol quanta ∙ m-2 ∙ s-1. Hence, the level of irradiance within this range can be recommended for use in the experimental system proposed for bioassay of bulk bottom sediments using E. canadensis as an indicator

Resumen: Las representaciones lingüísticas de las relaciones espaciales, debido al carácter móvil del hombre y a la comprensión material del mundo en el que este habita (objetos, formas y superficies) están presentes en todas las lenguas del mundo; sin embargo, diversos estudios consultados apuntan que los hablantes describen y organizan estas relaciones de modos distintos.  El presente trabajo permite mostrar que el comportamiento discursivo de la deixis espacial es de interés, tanto desde el punto de vista de la teoría gramatical como desde la óptica de su comportamiento discursivo, pues se corresponden con formas lingüísticas que adquieren plenitud referencial dentro del contexto pragmático en que son utilizadas.
Efectos del método de presentación léxica en la recuperación y el reconocimiento del vocabulario en español LE/L2 para italófonos
Authors: Hidalgo Gallardo Matías
Published: June 2020

Este estudio compara la efectividad de un aprendizaje intencional frente a uno incidental y el impacto de distintos grados de contextualización en la presentación del vocabulario. Para ello, se miden los efectos a corto y medio plazo de tres métodos directos de presentación léxica (lista de palabras, ejemplos y texto glosado) y uno indirecto (inferencia por contexto) en la recuperación y el reconocimiento de vocabulario en español L2 por parte de estudiantes italianos (universitarios y preuniversitarios). Los resultados revelan beneficios significativamente mayores para el aprendizaje intencional y, dentro de este aprendizaje directo, para el método de texto glosado. Se observa, además, mayor facilidad en la adquisición del conocimiento receptivo (frente al productivo) y del significado (frente a la forma). Se constata una leve disminución general en la retención léxica entre el test inmediato y el postest a medio plazo, con mayor propensión al olvido mediante el trabajo con listas, mientras que el método de inferencia por contexto mejora los resultados en el postest. Asimismo, los universitarios parecen beneficiarse más del listado y los ejemplos, mientras que los preuniversitarios lo hacen del texto con glosas.
Reading the Brussels Palimpsest in the History of the Nouveau Plan de Bruxelles Industriel (1910)
Authors: Declève Marine
Published: June 2020

This article restores the dialogical link between the Nouveau Plan de Bruxelles Industriel avec ses Suburbains, published on the occasion of the 1910 Industrial Exhibition (Verwest, Vanderoost, & Xhardez, 1910a), and the Inventaire Visuel de L’architecture Industrielle de L’agglomération de Bruxelles, produced by Maurice Culot and the team at the Archives d’Architecture Moderne (AAM) between 1980–1982 (Culot & the AMM, 1980–1982). These two kinds of spatialised visual inventories of places dedicated to production brings out a layer of the Brussels palimpsest filled with information that goes beyond the categories of permanence, persistence and disappearance raised by André Corboz and Alain Leveillé’s cartographic implementation of the palimpsest theory in the Atlas du Territoire Genevois (Corboz, 1993). This article compares palimpsest theory as applied to Geneva to the practice of inventory in Brussels. We propose visualising a lisuel layer intended as a visual reading revealed through a process of description, extraction, classification and juxtaposition. This process of visual analysis helps construct a typology of manufacturing production whose traces are embedded in urban space. It shows how a cartographic document informs the 1910 urban project and how local manufacturing companies contributed to its implementation. The contribution of this cartographic investigation is threefold. It concerns forms of manufacturing companies, forms of living, and production of urban space in 1910 Brussels. The Brussels Industrial Exhibition and the spatial story of Louis De Waele’s public works company reveals two patterns of relationships between industrial production and the transformation of urban space.

The State Pharmacopoeia of the Russian Federation 14th ed. suggests to standardize herbal teas using the procedures presented in the pharmacopoeia monographs but this approach is not always relevant due to complexity of this dosage form composition.

The purpose of investigation is to estimate quality of herbal teas utilizing monographs recommended by the State Pharmacopoeia of the Russian Federation 14th ed. for the individual components of teas and suggest feasible alternative approaches to standardization of multicomponent herbal drugs.

The objects of investigation Pectorales species № 1 and Proctofitol. Detection of substances was carried out using chromatographic (TLC and HPLC) and spectrophotometric methods recommended by the State Pharmacopoeia of the Russian Federation 14th ed. for individual components measured in term of marker biological active substances or substances found in the course of quality analysis.

It has been found out that the content of flavonoids measured in terms of giperosid surpasses over the equivalent figure in terms of luteolin in the extractions from Pectorales species № 1. The content of hydroxycinnamic acids in the same tea measured in terms of rosmarinic acid surpasses over the equivalent figure in terms of chlorogenic acid. Analysis of anthracene derivates in the Proctofitol has shown that the adsorption maximum of phenolate solution of anthracene derivates (523 nm) coincides with maximum by which was calculated the mass attenuation coefficient of sennoside B (523 nm) (for chrysophanic acid = 515 nm) and the maximum of adsorption of extraction from the tea with using alcohol solution of magnesium acetate (515 nm) coincides with maximum by which was calculated the mass attenuation coefficient of glucofrangulin A. Preliminary cleaning Proctofitol off anthracene derivates allowed to estimate the content of glycyrrhizic acid more completely.

The giperosid was suggested as a marker substance for determination of flavonoids, rosmarinic acid was suggested as a standard for hydroxycinnamic acids in Pectorales species № 1. The sennoside B was suggested as a marker for estimating of content of anthracene derivates in the Proctofitol and the necessity of cleaning this tea off anthracene derivates when defining glycyrrhizic acid was proven.

A review of research field related to well-known Russian medicinal fungal material, Chaga, is caused by the need to summarize information about the effects of its individual compounds on molecular targets of cancer cells. Chaga raw material (sterile bodies of the fungus Inonotus obliquus) is a complex fungus tissue which includes wood degradation products, and products of assimilation wood tissue components by the fungus. Chaga raw material is rich in polyphenols, triterpenoids of fungal and plant origin, and polysaccharides. In the early 1960s, Chaga raw material was included in the USSR State Pharmacopoeia and was recommended for use as a non-specific drug for the treatment of gastritis, stomach ulcers, polyposis, precancerous diseases and some forms of malignant tumors in cases where radiation therapy and surgical intervention are not destinated. However, large pharmacological potential of Chaga at the current moment seems to be still not realized. First of all, the multidirectional effect of various Chaga bioactive complexes on the molecular targets of the cancer cell is obvious: inhibiting cyclin-dependent kinases and proapoptotic (triterpenoids), immuno-mediated cytotoxic and pro-inflammatory (polysaccharides), genoprotective and antiapoptotic (polyphenols). It is obviously that complex action of these substances on cancer tissue has less pronounced effect than the targeted one. Consequently, the clinical trials of purified bioactive complexes of chaga, primarily of proapoptotic (inotodiol, betulinic acid) and anti-inflammatory (3,4-dihydroxybenzalacetone) action, are on the agenda. Based on the data reviewed, it is suggested that careful study of Chaga raw material in the future may lead to elaboration of new and more effective pharmaceuticals

The paper considers pictopolygraphic method in the objective diagnosis of affective disorders. 70 patients with symptoms of anxiety and depression were examined. Clinical psychopathologic and pictopolygraphic (by Software and Methodological Support Complex Egoscope) methods were implemented in the research. Pictopolygraphic method allows to carry out psychometric examination automatically using standardizedquestionnaires and scales while recording a number of physiological parameters: heart rate (HR), photoplethysmogram (PPG), electroencephalogram (EEG), galvanic skin response (GSR) and pictographic data. To assess the patient's subjective perception of the severity of anxiety and depressive disorders, the examinees completed the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS).It has been established that the assessment of the condition of patients with affective disorders based exclusively on clinical and psychopathological method is not sufficiently informative and does not always correspond to the actual severity of existing affective disorders. The use of the pictographic method in the examination of patients with anxiety-depressive disorders of a non-psychotic level can optimize the diagnostic process, improve the accuracy and quality of the diagnostic findings. The basic correlations of physiological pictographic indicators with patient complaints has been determined. It has been shown that the most informative and sensitive component of the objective assessment of patients with anxiety-depressive disorders is the change of the heart rate.

Authors: Guerra Beatriz M. , Gutiérrez David , Molina María José , Calvo Sonia
Published: June 2020

#EA26 é un movemento ciberactivista pola Educación Ambiental que naceu nas redes sociais para, desde elas, darlle visibilidade e crear redes para a acción ecosocial según os principios do Libro Branco da Educación Ambiental de España. Desde o ano 2014, #EA26 ten desenvolvido debates, entrevistas, campañas e ciberaccións no espazo dixital. E, dun xeito complementario, tamén ten participado en accións presenciais, organizando dous encontros estatais de educadoras e educadores ambientais e participando en eventos internacionais como a COP26. As chaves do movemento son a horizontalidade, a participación, ea colaboración voluntaria dos seus membros e a axilidade en dar resposta ás iniciativas e oportunidades de acción. As aportacións á Educación Ambiental foron reflectidas na visibilidade do sector, ao despertar o sentido de pertenza, ao ser referentes e á xeración de impacto. #EA26 define as accións de Educación Ambiental como microaccións políticas imprescindibles para promover o necesario cambio ecosocial ante a inminente crise global á que se enfrenta o planeta.
Economía Política de la Comunicación: la decolonialidad como nuevo paradigma
Authors: García Macías Pascual , Ariz Yuber Rojas
Published: June 2020

El diálogo entre Economía política y comunicación sobre lo social abre un campo de estudio interdisciplinario que desemboca en la Economía Política de la Comunicación. A partir de esta relación, se puede sustentar que las estructuras económicas son fundamental para entender la transformación de la misma comunicación. En ese orden de ideas, se establecen dos momentos en el presente estudio: el primero, que se centra en el fundamento social de la comunicación y cómo éste adquiere claridad desde la economía política de la comunicación; y el segundo, la revisión crítica que se puede hacer a partir del giro de colonial latinoamericano el cual puede brindar una óptica diferente a la comunicación.

Devlet İdaresinde Farklılıkların Yönetimi: Farklılıklar Değerimizdir Kurgusu Üzerine Bir Deneme
Authors: DEMİR Konur Alp
Published: June 2020

Bu çalışmanın temel çıkış noktası “farklılıklar değerimizdir” kurgusunun nasıl ve hangi yollarla

toplumun tamamına yayılacağı ve yönetim sistemimizin bu alanda etkili bir biçimde faaliyet

gösterebilmesi için nasıl daha iyi bir şekil alması gerektiği sorunsalının tartışılması ihtiyacıdır. Bu

sayede farklılıklar ayrışmanın bir unsuru değil, bütünleşmenin bir aracı haline dönüşebileceklerdir.

Aynı zamanda farklılıkların iyi bir biçimde yönetilmesi sonucunda idealize edilen toplumsal huzur

kurgusu sağlanmış olacaktır. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı bir ideal olarak görülen toplumsal

farklılıkların yönetimi olgusunu “farklılıklar değerimizdir” kurgusu üzerinden yeniden

tanımlamaktır. Bu amaçla çalışmada yabancı ve yerli literatür kullanılarak ve toplumsal huzurun

sağlanması adına girişilen faaliyetler kapsamında toplumsal farklılıklar olgusu ve devlet ile sivil

toplum kuruluşları üzerinden farklılıkların yok sayılmadan yönetilebilmesi için yapılması

gerekenler vurgulanacaktır. Bu çalışmadan beklenen sonuç Türkiye gibi çok farklı kültürlerin

yaşandığı, farklı inançların bir arada yer aldığı ve farklı dillerin konuşulduğu bir coğrafyada,

farklılıkları bir değer olarak kabul ederek aynı çatı altında yaşatmanın yollarının devletin ve sivil

toplum kuruluşlarının ortak çalışmasından geçtiğini vurgulamaktır.

İlk olarak 1920 yılında Amerika’da yayın hayatına adım atan radyo, Türkiye’de 1927 yılından
itibaren dinleyicilere ulaşmaya başlamıştır. Değişen dünyada gerek teknoloji, gerekse toplumsal
alanda yaşanan dönüşümler radyo yayıncılığı üzerinde etkiler oluşturmaktadır. Tüm bu etkilerin
sonucunda zamana direnip, alternatif kitle iletişim araçlarıyla yarışını sürdüren radyolar
açısından varlık ve gelecek sorgulamaları devam etmektedir. Bu çalışmada Türkiye’deki radyo
yayıncılığı yeni kurumsal kuram bağlamında incelenmiştir. Araştırma için öncelikle alan yazını
taranmış, hazırlanan görüşme soruları, Türkiye’deki radyolardan alınan örneklem grubundaki
yetkili kişilere yöneltilmiştir. Yeni kurumsal kuram kapsamında eş biçimlilik ve kurumsal değişim
boyutları üzerinden sektörü değerlendirmeyi amaçlayan bu çalışmanın, radyonun dünü, bugünü
ve geleceğine dair açıklama sunabileceği düşünülmektedir.
