Association Between Adiposity Indices and Blood Pressure is Stronger in Sarcopenic Obese Women
Authors: Dutra Maurilio Tiradentes , Martins Karla Gonçalves , Vieira dos Reis Diego Batista , de Oliveira Silva Alessandro , Mota Márcio Rabelo
Published: November 2018

Background:

Anthropometric indices are useful to identify excess weight and poor
health outcomes. Previous research showed that some indices are correlated to blood pressure (BP)
among adults. Yet, these associations are poorly characterized in women with sarcopenic obesity
(SO). SO is characterized as the combination of sarcopenia and obesity and has been examined as
an emerging cause of disorders and frailty.

Objective:

The study aims to examine the association between anthropometric indices and BP in
community-dwelling women with and without SO.

Method:

118 women (46.3 ± 15.6 years; 1.56 ± .07m; 66.9 ± 12.5kg) underwent BP and anthropometric
assessments. Body weight, height, as well as waist (WC) and hip circumference were
measured. Body mass index (BMI), body adiposity index (BAI), waist-to-hip (WHR) and waist-toheight
(WHtR) ratio were calculated. SO was identified based on median values of percent body fat
and muscle mass. Partial correlation was used to assess the association between adiposity indices
and BP adopting age, presence of hypertension and use of antihypertensive medication as controlling
variables. The significance level was set at P ≤ .05.

Results:

systolic BP was significantly higher in subjects with SO (126.4 ± 14.1 vs 121.0 ±
11.6mmHg, P = .01). Correlations between anthropometric indices and systolic BP were generally
higher in women with SO, reaching statistical significance for WC (r = .39, P < .05) and WHtR (r =
.30, P < .05) when age was the controlling variable.

Conclusion:

The association of adiposity indices and BP is stronger in subjects with SO when
compared to those without SO.
Tissue Non-Specific Alkaline Phosphatase and Vascular Calcification: A Potential Therapeutic Target
Authors: Azpiazu Daniel , Gonzalo Sergio , Villa-Bellosta Ricardo
Published: November 2018

Vascular calcification is a pathologic phenomenon consisting of calcium phosphate
crystal deposition in the vascular walls. Vascular calcification has been found to be a risk factor for
cardiovascular diseases, due to its correlation with cardiovascular events and mortality, and it has
been associated with aging, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease.

Studies of vascular calcification have focused on phosphate homeostasis, primarily on the important
role of hyperphosphatemia. Moreover, vascular calcification has been associated with loss of
plasma pyrophosphate, one of the main inhibitors of calcification, thus indicating the importance of
the phosphate/pyrophosphate ratio.

Extracellular pyrophosphate can be synthesized from extracellular ATP by ecto-nucleotide pyrophosphatase/
phosphodiesterase, whereas pyrophosphate is hydrolyzed to phosphate by tissuenonspecific
alkaline phosphatase, contributing to the formation of hydroxyapatite crystals.

Over the last decade, vascular calcification has been the subject of numerous reviews and studies,
which have revealed new agents and activities that may aid in explaining the complex physiology
of this condition. This review summarizes current knowledge about alkaline phosphatase and its
role in the process of vascular calcification as a key regulator of the phosphate/pyrophosphate ratio.

Authors: Dannier Adolfo , Brando Gianluca , Spina Ivan , Iannuzzi Diego
Published: November 2018

Objective:

This paper analyses the Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) topology, where each individual Sub Module (SM), in half bridge configuration, is directly fed by an elementary electrochemical cell.

Methods:

The aim is to investigate how the reference voltages influence the cells currents waveforms, determining how the active powers and the losses are distributed among the cells. Considering a 2-level Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) topology working in the same conditions, the ratio between the MMC total cells losses and VSI total cells losses is calculated. After showing the system architecture and mathematical model, the cells current waveform investigation is presented and detailed both for triangular and sinusoidal voltage reference waveform.

Results:

Finally, the results are critically discussed with particular focus on the comparison between the MMC and the VSI topologies.

Published: November 2018

Jack fruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) is most widely cultivated in Andhra Pradesh, india. It has high nutritional values, medicinal values, rich phytochemical compositions, minerals etc. Such crop plants are infected by soft rot causing fungi by Rhizopus artocarpi (Berk. & Broome) Boedijn, in Andhra pradesh, India. The flowers and fruits are severally damaged by soft rot fungi. So this soft rot fungus was isolated from fruits and identified as R. artocarpi (Berk. & Broome) Boedijn. The soft rot fungus is grown on PDA medium and cultural characters are studied. The antifungal test is done by using fungal extracts from Phelinus noxius and Ganoderma lucidum and leaf extract Prosopis juliflora (Sw.) DC. In early stage of infection, Rhizopus spores deposit on moist fruit surface, get germinates and mycelia grow into the tissues of fruit. The infection produces a layer of black spores on the fruit surface. The fruit becomes soft, watery and brown spots develop on the fruit. In culture on PDA medium it is heavily growing and spreading. It produces sporangia with spores, and then it becomes brownish black with maturity of fungal colony. For biocontrol of soft rot fungi, 20% methanolic extract is more effective than 5, 10, and 15% concentrations. The methanolic extract showed 100% inhibition of both soft rot fungi when compared to water extract. For the first time fungal extracts were used to control the soft rot fungus causing disease in Jackfruits.
Extraction, characterization & applications of natural dyes
Authors: Khan Bushra , Sindhyan Ramya , Divan Anushi , Rathod Sejal
Published: November 2018

Artificial dyes, widely used in everyday items, come with side effects not known to the common man. They are toxic, harmful & mostly carcinogenic. There has been a worldwide increase in the demand of natural dyes due to its therapeutic properties & no known side effects. The current research aimed at extracting dyes of different colors from natural plant sources, carrying out its characteristic analysis & its applications. The dyes were tested for their anti-microbial ability and were found to be inhibitory to common organisms like S. typhi, C. diphtheriae, S. aureus, etc. Phytochemical tests were performed and they confirmed presence of several important metabolites like Phenols, Tannins, Terpenoids, and many more. The dyes were tested for anti-oxidant activity using the FRAP assay and antioxidant levels ranging from 0.62 to 2.00 were obtained. Preparations of cosmetics like lip balms, was carried out, and dyes were also tested as natural food coloring agents. The results indicated that the dyes caused inhibition of wide range of bacteria and proved to be good sources of anti-oxidants. They departed a natural color to food items and hence can replace artificial food colorings. Thus the use of natural dyes should be promoted, as they are cheap, biodegradable and feasible.

Looking for Competent School Leaders for Indigenous Schools: The New System to Appoint School Leaders in Mexico
Authors: Lopez-Delgado Manuel
Published: November 2018

The understanding that leadership matters is well regarded in many types of organizations not only in education. In 2015 Mexico implemented a new system to appoint school leaders updating the previous, which was applied for more than four decades. This system aims to appoint the most competent candidate as school principal based on the scores they get on two tests. This study explored how the new system enhances or hinders preparation and readiness for leadership positions, and the effectiveness of tutoring and in-service professional development. Five newly appointed school leaders to Indigenous schools were followed throughout their first year of service. They were interviewed at the beginning, after six months, and at then end of their first year. Thematic analysis was used to process the data gathered from semi-structured interviews using a selective coding approach. Two main predefined themes were explored in this study: Leadership Preparation and Tutoring and Professional Development. Findings indicate that for schools located in remote Indigenous communities, isolation and the lack of communication infrastructure, such as internet and phone signal, hinder the possibility of effective training and tutoring.This study concludes that even though the new system seems to have made progress in appointing better school leaders, it is only partial since aspiring leaders are neither required to make specific preparation for their new post nor offered these opportunities, hindering their readiness to enact headship effectively.

Analysis of heat and moisture transfer during drying of urea particles
Authors: Torkashvand Bahram , Gilassi Sina , Moghadam Reza
Published: November 2018

Urea is an inexpensive form of nitrogen fertilizer which is widely used in the agricultural industry. Urea as granule is produced through a drying process by which moisture content decreases to avoid operational issues. In this study, a numerical model is proposed for the drying of urea particles in the prilling process. The model is developed based on mass, heat, and hydrodynamic transfer equations for the urea particles and cooling air. The moisture and temperature variations of particles and cooling air at different heights of the prilling tower are calculated under different operating conditions. The shrinkage of particles due to the moisture loss during the drying process at different heights of the tower is considered. The model is validated with the real data obtained from a urea drying plant operated under steady-state condition. The result highlights that the model can be used to manipulate the operating parameters to improve product quality and to minimize urea temperature to prevent lamps and caking formation in the tower.
Tax Preparer Certification and Organization Form among Uncertified Preparers Influence Client Satisfaction and Experience
Authors: Witherspoon Candace L. , Stone Dan N.
Published: November 2018

How does state certification (e.g., CPA, enrolled agent [EA], or attorney) and organizational form among uncertified preparers (big box “franchise” firms versus not) influence client satisfaction and interactions? Results from a sample (n = 3,984) of Yelp ratings of U.S. tax preparers indicates that certified preparers receive higher ratings than do uncertified small-firm preparers, who earn higher ratings than do franchise preparers. Linguistic analysis suggests that clients of certified preparers experience tax preparation service as a “relational” interaction, with reviews evidencing more positive affect and inclusive pronouns (e.g., we). In contrast, the clients of franchise firms experience tax preparation as “transactional,” with reviews evidencing more swear words and impersonal pronouns. Linguistic results for uncertified small preparers fall between those of certified and franchise preparers. The paper is among the first to adapt emerging corpus linguistic methods to examine client perceptions of professional accounting services.

KNOWLEDGE WITHHOLDING WITHIN AN ORGANIZATION: THE PSYCHOLOGICAL RESISTANCE TO KNOWLEDGE SHARING LINKING WITH TERRITORIALITY
Authors: Kumar Das Anupam , Chakraborty Shimul
Published: November 2018

The world of knowledge management consists of different terms that are flying around. Some words are more significant and frequently used than others. Knowledge sharing and knowledge transfer are sometimes measured to have overlapping content and used synonymously. The transfer of knowledge between organizational members has drawn consideration from both academia and business because company competitiveness is linked directly to the dissemination of innovation through an organization. Regardless of the efforts to increase knowledge sharing in organizations, success has been subtle. It is pretty clear that in many instances, employees are not willing to share knowledge even when organizational practices are followed to facilitate transfer. As the scope of innovation within an organization depends on the efficient transfer of knowledge between members, this paper emphases on the concept of knowledge withholding, which is known to interrupt this transfer and distinguish from related concepts (knowledge barriers, knowledge hiding). The aim of this paper is to make a contribution in finding the proper demarcations between these concepts. Firstly, to prove that knowledge sharing and knowledge withholding are separate concepts, Herzberg’s twofactor theory is used which explain the difference between them. Secondly, previous studies on knowledge management are exposed to have unnoticed knowledge withholding in courtesy of knowledge sharing, leading to a lack of information on the earlier. Thirdly, knowledge withholding is defined into two separate manners: the intentional hiding and the unintentional hoarding of knowledge. Finally, characteristics of knowledge withholding are abbreviated based on four territorial behaviors associated to employees in order to advocate areas for further study.

The interrelations of competency expectations in connection with career-starter skilled workers in the counties of northern hungary
Authors: Sós Tamás
Published: November 2018

Introduction: Examining the connection between vocational training and the world of work, nowadays it is essential to mention the “gap”, which keeps on growing, between training and the economy due to the quick technological changes. Purpose: The purpose of the research is scientific investigation of the demand process of competency expectations at workplaces in connection with careerstarter skilled workers having completed their vocational training at school, and of young specialists’ qualifications, motivation, and the supply process in three disadvantaged counties in Northern Hungary. Considering the conditions of the training of specialists, we started from the opinion, an axiom drawn up all over Europe, that there is a shortage of specialists in the labor market in quantitative and qualitative respects alike. Digitalization, “Economy 4.0” is basically transforming technological and logistics processes, while professions disappear, or new ones are created. In the field of employment, probably fewer, but more qualified, skilled workers will be needed. All these mean a significant challenge, a need for a change in specialists’ training, in the preparation for a new type of labor force. Methods: The method of the research was a primary data collection embracing the area of Northern Hungary, self-completed online questionnaires, complemented with focus group interviews. In the framework of a secondary analysis, according to stratified sampling, based on OECD-PISA survey, there will be a comparison of students’ average results on the European scale. Limitations: The lack of representativeness restricted the research with the employer survey. Results: The results of the research cast light on the sensitive points of vocational training at schools, on the educational deficit, on the shortcomings of the qualification system, and on the growing gap between training and the labor market. Conclusions: The conclusions are aimed at the improvement of vocational training, and at broadening the connections with the employers. There is a demand for an incentive system, so that along with big companies, also SMEs will take part in the formal training of professionals within the school system in bigger and bigger proportions. We will further continue our studies in this direction
Intergenerational learning – lifelong learning

Published: November 2018

Introduction: Nowadays, providing the access to learning appears as an emphasized priority for every stage of life, due to the demographic changes, even near the place of residence or with the utilization of the possibilities of the new informational and communicational technologies, which bring new possibilities also in the dimension of learning between generations. Purpose: Intergenerational learning can also be defined as a mutual learning relationship and interaction between the young and the old. The starting point of the study is that the younger and older age groups can learn from each other in their free time, in a non-formal learning environment in the framework of study circles. This paper drafts some practical directives for planning and organizing intergenerational study circles in a non-formal learning environment. Methods: We intend to make a synthesis based on former research and literature - learning between generations, spending free time, learning at an old age, study circles - and following this, a methodological guide is going to be made for planning and organizing intergenerational study circles. Conclusions: Study circles can be seen as intergenerational learning possibilities - young and old people with different preliminary knowledge can make a profit from the experiences gained during joint work, and from the topics examined from different points of views. The younger and older generations can work together in a non-formal learning environment and there is an opportunity for common learning and knowledge sharing as well.

Authors: Tulla Antoni F. , Vera Ana , Valldeperas Natàlia , Guirado Carles
Published: November 2018

In Europe, Social Farming (SF) and agritourism are multifunctional agriculture activities that arise when agricultural land is abandoned in rural and peri-urban areas; it is difficult to develop commercial agriculture if it is not intensive. In our research, we studied SF in Catalonia, carrying out a census and classification of 161 initiatives and a more in-depth analysis of 10 projects (or 9 in some cases), identifying their viability and the economic, social, and environmental return on investment (SROI) for the resources used in each case. The methodology included questionnaires, in-depth interviews, and Canvas and SROI analyses. Although SF has developed in many European countries, it is incipient in the Iberian Peninsula. The projects in Catalonia combine agrarian activity, socio-health care and social policies, with the aim of offering innovative solutions to the needs of different groups at risk of social exclusion.
Rural Settlements on Peatlands in Moscow Region: Impact of Economic Activities and Climate Changes on Quality of Life
Authors: Borodina Tatiana , Savchenko Alexander
Published: November 2018

The impact of the transformation of economic activities and sharp weather and climate changes on the quality of life in rural settlements on peatlands in the Moscow region was analyzed. As theoretical background, an analysis of various interpretations of the concept of the quality of life was carried out, including in the context of sustainable development. The impact of economic and environmental factors of the quality of life in rural settlements on peatlands is considered with respect to their location in the zone of attraction of Moscow. It was concluded that the development of industrialization in the region led to population decline and to increase in the anthropogenic load. This critically increased the vulnerability of peatlands to fluctuations in weather and climate conditions and several times led to serious environmental disasters. At the same time, location in the zone of attraction of Moscow opens up opportunities for improving the quality of life associated with the development of post-industrial recreational use.
