Authors: Jaiman Sunil , Romero Roberto , Pacora Percy , Jung Eun Jung , Kacerovsky Marian , Bhatti Gaurav , Yeo Lami , Hsu Chaur-Dong
Published: July 2020

Background

Normal development of the human placenta, referred to as villous tree maturation, entails formation of the vasculosyncytial membranes. These structures develop by the approximation of syncytiotrophoblasts with the villous capillary endothelium and constitute the most efficient sites of gaseous exchange in the placenta. Defective maturation of the villous tree can lead to deficient vasculosyncytial membranes, implicated in the high incidence of hypoxic complications. Hypoxia, in turn, can stimulate production of erythropoietin, whereby increased fetal plasma or amniotic fluid concentrations of this hormone reflect fetal hypoxemia. The current study was undertaken to determine whether delayed villous maturation is associated with changes in amniotic fluid erythropoietin concentrations.

Methods

Placental histologic examination was performed using hematoxylin and eosin. Subsequent to histologic assessment of delayed villous maturation, the diagnosis was confirmed with CD-15 immunohistochemistry. The controls (n = 61) were pregnancies without villous maturation abnormalities, and cases (n = 5) were pregnancies with delayed villous maturation. Amniotic fluid erythropoietin concentrations were measured using a specific immunoassay.

Results

Concentrations of erythropoietin in the amniotic fluid (1) of controls were less than the limit of detection and (2) of cases with delayed villous maturation were significantly higher than those of controls (P-value = 0.048).

Conclusion

Delayed villous maturation is associated with higher concentrations of amniotic fluid erythropoietin.

Peacekeeping after Covid-19
Authors: Dorussen Han
Published: July 2020

The 2020 Covid-19 pandemic may not be a game changer for future peacekeeping and humanitarian operations, but it is likely to strengthen developments that have been on-going since the early 2010s. Since then, major global and regional powers have increasingly pursued self-interested policies, interventions have become less accepted by host countries, and the UN is more financially constrained. These developments all point towards fewer and smaller interventions. Responses to Covid-19 so far suggest these trends to continue. Arguably, this hampers effective and collaborative action against global challenges such as Covid-19.
Subpixel matching method for remote sensing image of ground features based on geographic information
Authors: Chen Chen
Published: July 2020

In order to solve the problem of large error of subpixel matching and poor filtering effect in traditional methods, a subpixel matching method based on geographical information is proposed. First, the image quality of the remote sensing image is enhanced by the image enhancement method based on light energy allocation. Then, the boundary geographic information is extracted by the improved thresholding segmentation algorithm based on histogram exponential convex hull for the enhanced remote sensing image of ground features. Based on the extracted geographic information, by matching the boundary image with the function measurement method, the center coordinates of the image block corresponding to the actual measurement map and the reference submap which achieve the best matching are obtained. According to the corresponding geometric transformation relationship between the measured image and the reference image, the subpixel matching of the measured remote sensing image and the reference image can be carried out under the least-square-error criterion. The experimental results show that the enhancement performance and noise filtering performance of the proposed method are better than those of the same type of method, the matching residual is very small, the matching accuracy is high, and the application value is significant.
Understanding hormonal crosstalk in Arabidopsis root development via emulation and history matching
Authors: Jackson Samuel E. , Vernon Ian , Liu Junli , Lindsey Keith
Published: July 2020

A major challenge in plant developmental biology is to understand how plant growth is coordinated by interacting hormones and genes. To meet this challenge, it is important to not only use experimental data, but also formulate a mathematical model. For the mathematical model to best describe the true biological system, it is necessary to understand the parameter space of the model, along with the links between the model, the parameter space and experimental observations. We develop sequential history matching methodology, using Bayesian emulation, to gain substantial insight into biological model parameter spaces. This is achieved by finding sets of acceptable parameters in accordance with successive sets of physical observations. These methods are then applied to a complex hormonal crosstalk model for Arabidopsis root growth. In this application, we demonstrate how an initial set of 22 observed trends reduce the volume of the set of acceptable inputs to a proportion of 6.1 × 10−7of the original space. Additional sets of biologically relevant experimental data, each of size 5, reduce the size of this space by a further three and two orders of magnitude respectively. Hence, we provide insight into the constraints placed upon the model structure by, and the biological consequences of, measuring subsets of observations.
Capital mobility in commodity-exporting economies
Authors: Polbin Andrey , Rybak Konstantin , Zubarev Andrey
Published: July 2020

This paper studies capital mobility in commodity-exporting economies. These countries substantially depend on world commodity prices and have rather high level of savings on average, so it is naturally to assume that they demonstrate special patterns of capital mobility. Our main hypothesis is that constraints on capital mobility in this group of countries depend upon the level of savings compared to the level of investments. In particular, with high savings that follow higher world demand and higher commodity prices, financing country’s desirable level of investment is not a big deal. At the same time, in the case of negative terms of trade shocks these commodity-exporting economies may experience lower savings and higher country risk-premium. This may lead to restrictions on borrowing capital in the global market, resulting in a high correlation between investments and savings. The results of threshold regressions speak in favour of our hypothesis.

El discurso pedagógico en la enseñanza de conceptos en química con el uso del texto escolar
Authors: Certad Villarroel Pedro A. , Ramírez Tulio
Published: July 2020

En el presente estudio se planteó analizar el discurso académico científico en la enseñanza de una selección de conceptos básicos de Química valiéndose del texto escolar como punto de encuentro entre las interacciones. Desde su método pretendió un nivel explicativo bajo un diseño de tipo mixto o combinado con el uso de la técnica de análisis de contenido que sirvió de unión entre datos cuantitativos referidos al conteo de categorías y frecuencia de apariciones dentro del capital verbal con información cualitativa proveniente del registro de interacciones, grabaciones y transcripciones de los hechos observados durante el uso del texto escolar. Al finalizar se pudo concluir que la observación durante las interacciones se caracterizó por el predominio de unidades dialogales frente a las monologales, uso de un lenguaje científico, cercano, centrado, que en algunos momentos era poco preciso e inclusivo. Las secuencias muestran tres momentos diferenciados y una predominancia de la explicación magistral en la cual se hace uso de algunas estrategias con un cierre marcado con la realización de actividades propuestas tanto por el profesor como por el texto escolar. El reconocimiento de modelos de aprendizaje fue muy particular pues en ningún caso se trató de un modelo puro que permitiera enmarcar la clase para así poder identificar cómo sería llevada ésta, qué esperar, qué no esperar, en fin, reconocer la clase y el modelo por el cual era dada; fue a partir del entretejido de los atributos de cada modelo de aprendizaje que se hizo posible caracterizar al profesor.

Each section of the case study ends with a series of discussion questions meant to lead into the next section.
Surviving (Black) Together
Authors: Hill Dominique C. , Callier Durell M.
Published: July 2020

How do Black feminism and womanism foster interconnectedness to one another and the sacred? What knowledges manifest through collective practices of wondering and wandering together? This essay provides reflections on our own engagements with creative-relational inquiry, manifested through our collective practice, Hill L. Waters, a scholar–artist collective rooted in love, Black queer resistance, and art as activism. Organized around and through three corresponding moments, this poetic essay embodies creative-relational inquiry and narrates our process of collectivity. Ultimately, this essay demonstrates how collectivity as a writing practice, political commitment, and identity translates Black feminist and womanist theory into praxis.

Authors: Iosefo Fetaui , Iosefo Joshua
Published: July 2020

This essay seeks to explore the relationship between a Samoan mother and son who is Niuean Samoan. The complexities of youth, sexuality, parenting, and lack thereof are traversed. The vulnerability of being naked is used as a metaphor for speaking “truth.” To speak truth you must be willing to be stripped naked. To hear your child's truth often means bearing witness to their nakedness and in return giving them a naked safe sacred space to share. This essay is an example of creative-relational inquiry between mother and son.

Real-time, high-resolution imaging of tumor cells in genetically engineered and orthotopic models of thyroid cancer
Authors: Shanja-Grabarz Xhesika , Coste Anouchka , Entenberg David , Di Cristofano Antonio
Published: July 2020

Genetically engineered and orthotopic xenograft mouse models have been instrumental for increasing our understanding of thyroid cancer progression and for the development of novel therapeutic approaches in a setting that is more physiologically relevant than the classical subcutaneous flank implants. However, the anatomical location of the thyroid gland precludes a non-invasive analysis at the cellular level of the interactions between tumor cells and the surrounding microenvironment and does not allow a real-time evaluation of the response of tumor cells to drug treatments. As a consequence, such studies have generally only relied on endpoint approaches, limiting the amount and depth of the information that could be gathered. Here we describe the development of an innovative approach to imaging specific aspects of thyroid cancer biology, based on the implantation of a permanent, minimally invasive optical window that allows high-resolution, multi-day, intravital imaging of the behavior and cellular dynamics of thyroid tumors in the mouse. We show that this technology allows visualization of fluorescently tagged tumor cells both in immunocompetent, genetically engineered mouse models of anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) and in immunocompromised mice carrying orthotopic implanted human or mouse ATC cells. Furthermore, the use of recipient mice in which endothelial cells and macrophages are fluorescently labeled allows the detection of the spatial and functional relationship between tumor cells and their microenvironment. Finally, we show that ATC cells expressing a fluorescent biosensor for caspase 3 activity can be effectively utilized to evaluate, in real-time, the efficacy and kinetics of action of novel small molecule therapeutics. This novel approach to intravital imaging of thyroid cancer represents a platform that will allow, for the first time, the longitudinal, in situ analysis of tumor cell responses to therapy and of their interaction with the microenvironment.
Descolonizar la historia de la tradición filosófica en Colombia: la necesidad de reevaluar los postulados historiográficos actuales
Authors: Bernal Ríos Laura Patricia
Published: July 2020

Se ofrece una reflexión sobre los avances y las tendencias de discusión en la historia de la tradición filosófica en Colombia y sus presupuestos historiográficos, como un aporte al debate sobre la relevancia de pensar las tradiciones filosóficas nacionales en el siglo XXI. A partir de las categorías valorativas de las diferentes producciones intelectuales se determina si hacen parte o no de la tradición filosófica nacional. El concepto de “normalización filosófica” es analizado como categoría interpretativa de la tradición colombiana y se sugiere su obsolescencia dadas sus implicaciones; con el propósito de superar el reduccionismo, la exclusión y el sesgo al que conlleva esta categoría. Se propone la reivindicación de los intentos de análisis social del siglo XIX y de las producciones filosóficas regionales con el propósito de aportar a una reconstrucción decolonial, amplia y sin sesgos de la historia de la tradición de la filosofía colombiana.

La verdad, entendida por Tomás de Aquino como la adecuación entre el intelecto y la realidad, forma, en aquel que la busca y la dice, una virtud moral denominada veracidad. Dicha comprensión de la verdad, epistemológica y moral, inspira una manera de entender tanto la pedagogía como la responsabilidad social universitarias. Este artículo desarrolla las relaciones entre epistemología realista, virtud moral y universidad, y muestra cómo la noción de veracidad ha servido de inspiración para las apuestas pedagógicas de la Universidad Santo Tomás.

—We overview recent data on the mineralogy of oxidizing-type fumaroles of the Tolbachik Volcano (Kamchatka, Russia), with the main focus on the chemical specifics of the minerals. The active fumarole fields of Tolbachik are the most prominent mineral-forming exhalative system of this type in the world. About 350 mineral species, including 123 minerals first discovered here, are reliably identified in the Tolbachik fumaroles. The species diversity and the specifics of this mineralization are due to the unique combination of the physicochemical conditions and mechanisms of its formation: high temperatures, atmospheric pressure, superhigh oxygen fugacity, gas transport of most of chemical elements, and direct deposition of many high-temperature minerals from volcanic gases with a specific geochemical composition, including strong enrichment in alkaline metals and chalcophile (“ore”) elements. Sublimate silicates and minerals of As, Cu, Zn, Mn, Ti, Sn, Sb, Se, Au, Ag, Cs, Tl, and F are briefly described in terms of mineral geochemistry.
Plate Tectonics vs. Plume Tectonics Interplay: Possible Models and Typical Cases
Authors: Dobretsov N.L.
Published: July 2020

The interplay of plume and plate tectonics is discussed with reference to well-documented late Paleozoic and Mesozoic–Cenozoic structures. The considered issues include models of lower mantle plumes; the typical case of the Hawaii plume; plate motions in the Pacific basin under the effect of plume activity and subduction processes; the role of plumes in the breakup of continents and rifting for the cases of the East African rifts and Gondwana breakup; large continental igneous provinces of Siberia and Tarim, with meimechites and kimberlites; and the formation of large granitic batholiths and related metallogeny. The study contains several points of novelty: integrated use of lower mantle seismic tomography and satellite altimetry data on gravity patterns; correlation of plume heat with plate velocities assuming that some plumes may dissolve in the asthenosphere; and correlation of rifting with compression and extension zones.
A Pediatric Hospital Policy for Medical Marijuana Use
Authors: Carver Amy E. , Jorgensen Jennifer , Barberio Michael W. , Lomuscio Carla E. , Brumbaugh David
Published: July 2020

Most US states have now legalized medical marijuana (MMJ) use, giving new hope to families dealing with chronic illness, despite only limited data showing efficacy. Access to MMJ has presented several challenges for patients and families, providers, and pediatric hospitals, including the discrepancy between state and federal law, potential patient safety issues, and drug interaction concerns. Colorado was one of the first states to legalize MMJ and has remained at the forefront in addressing these challenges. Children’s Hospital Colorado has created and evolved its MMJ inpatient use policy and has developed a unique consultative service consisting of a clinical pharmacist and social worker. This service supports patients and families and primary clinical services in situations in which MMJ is actively being used or considered by a pediatric patient. The first 50 patients seen by this consultative service are reported. Eighty percent of patients seen had an oncologic diagnosis. Symptoms to be ameliorated by active or potential MMJ use included nausea and vomiting, appetite stimulation, seizures, and pain. In 64% of patients, MMJ use was determined to be potentially unsafe, most often because of potential drug-drug interactions. In 68% of patients, a recommendation was made to either avoid MMJ use or adjust its administration schedule. As pediatric hospitals address the topic of MMJ use in their patients, development of institutional policy and clinical support services with specific expertise in MMJ is a recommended step to support patient and families and hospital team members.

Cardiac stimulation therapy has evolved significantly over the past 30 years. Currently, cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) are the mainstream therapy for many potentially lethal heart conditions, such as advanced atrioventricular block or sustained ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation. Despite sometimes being lifesaving, the implant is surgical and therefore carries all the inevitable intrinsic risks. In the process of technology evolution, one of the most important factors is to make it safer for the patient. In the context of CIED implants, complications include accidental puncture of intrathoracic structures. Alternative strategies to intrathoracic subclavian vein puncture include cephalic vein dissection or axillary vein puncture, which can be guided by fluoroscopy, venography or, more recently, ultrasound. In this article, the authors analyse the state of the art of ultrasound-guided axillary vein puncture using evidence from landmark studies in this field.
Über die soziale und kulturelle Bedeutung eines auch romanischen Sports
Authors: Conord Fabien , Lehnert Joris
Published: July 2020

Ziel dieser Einleitung ist, einen allgemeinen Forschungsüberblick über Rugby anzubieten, um ein bis dato wenig bearbeitetes Forschungsfeld in der (deutschen) romanistischen Kulturwissenschaft darzustellen. Der Fokus soll dabei auf die aktuellen Entwicklungen im Rugby in der Romania, dessen Professionalisierungsprozess, kulturelle Bedeutung und die dadurch entstehenden Herausforderungen gelenkt werden. Entgegen der Auffassung, dass Rugby fast ausschließlich britischer Prägung ist, widmet sich die Ausgabe jenem Rugby, der in den Ländern romanischer Sprache und Kultur gespielt wird. Ausgehend von der lebendigen Rugbykultur Frankreichs wird der Überblick von der Frage nach einer spezifischen Kultur oder gar Identität des romanischen Rugby geleitet sein. Denn über die starke und sehr lebendige französische Rugbykultur hinaus hat der Sport auch eine gewisse kulturelle Bedeutung in anderen Ländern der Romania angenommen. Zumal aus historischer Perspektive in der Tat die Nationalmannschaften, die für die britischen und die Südsee-Mannschaften eine (mehr oder weniger starke) Konkurrenz darstell(t)en, einen gemeinsamen Nenner haben: Diese Mannschaften stammen alle aus der Romania.
Konstruktion und Dekonstruktion des Heroischen in Le Taureau de Mazargues von R.-M. Rolland (1931)
Authors: Müller Claudia
Published: July 2020

Der Beitrag untersucht den Rugbyroman Le Taureau de Mazargues von R.-M. Rolland, der 1931 erschienen ist. Dabei soll gezeigt werden, dass der der Protagonist Jean als Sportheld entworfen wird, dessen heroischer Status jedoch grundlegend durch seine Ambivalenz gekennzeichnet ist. Konstruiert wird diese gebrochene Heldenfigur, indem die Erzählung Konstitutionsbedingungen des Heroischen bedient und zugleich problematisiert. Die Kategorien „Heldenmacher“, „Publikum“, „Heldentat“ und „Heroisierung“ stehen dabei im Fokus der Untersuchung. Der Beitrag schlägt vor, Rollands Roman als eine Geschichte der Entfremdung im Zeichen des Heroischen zu lesen.
« Dire vrai » et rugby
Authors: Cassan Jordi
Published: July 2020

Écrire le rugby, c'est aussi l'écrire dans la presse quotidienne nationale non spécialisée étudiée ici à travers Le Figaro, L'Humanité, Libération et Le Monde. Entre 1987 et 2007 ce sport comme ces journaux connaissent une crise liée à la professionnalisation ouverte à partir de 1995 pour le premier et à l'érosion de son lectorat pour les seconds. Cet article vise donc à étudier les évolutions de la manière d'écrire le rugby dans ce contexte révélateur de double crise. Il emprunte pour ce faire la notion de « dire-vrai » développé par M. Foucault et repère trois temps, correspondant chacun à un mode de véridiction particulier : le dire-vrai du prophète (1987-1995) ; le dire-vrai du professeur (1995-1999) et le dire-vrai de l'expert (2000-2007). Le triomphe de ce dernier mode de véridiction marque le triomphe du paradigme néolibéral dans les discours, pendant d'un professionnalisme intégral sur le terrain.

Le rugby au Portugal
Authors: Pedroso de Lima João Tiago
Published: July 2020

Cet article vise à donner un bref aperçu de la situation du rugby au Portugal, pays où le football ne laisse quasiment aucune place à un autre sport. Le rugby portugais dont la quasi-invisibilité dans les médias sportifs reflète la dimension minoritaire et asymétrique se distingue par sa macrocéphalie très forte, aussi liée au déséquilibre démographique du pays. Le premier match concerna des équipes formées de joueurs britanniques et malgré des débuts difficiles, le rugby au Portugal, influencé par la France, s’établit sans toutefois connaître un développement tel que dans d’autres pays le connurent. Longtemps sport élitiste et essentiellement réservé aux étudiants des universités de Lisbonne, Porto et Coimbra, il a connu une décennie dorée au début du XXIe siècle dont le point d’orgue fut la participation à la coupe du monde 2007 en France. Toutefois, l’absence d’un investissement structurel à la suite de cette heure de gloire fait craindre une occasion manquée d’un développement prometteur.

Medialisierung der Wahrnehmung und Konstruktion innerer Puppen im Werk von Marcel Proust
Authors: Felten Uta
Published: July 2020

Marcel Prousts Recherche kann als ein Palimpsest bildlicher Imaginationen beschrieben werden, die zumeist auf die Brüchigkeit der binären Beschaffenheit von Gegenteilspaaren wie ‚real‘ und ‚fiktiv‘ oder auch ‚männlich‘ und ‚weiblich‘ hinweisen. Die Figur der deformierenden Inversion, die sich der Malerei bedient, um diese aus ihren ursprünglichen Kontexten in neue (mediale) Kontexte zu überführen, kann als eine herausstechende Eigenschaft der Proust’schen Ästhetik beschrieben werden. In diesem Artikel soll gezeigt werden, dass das benannte Verfahren vor allem im ästhetischen Spiel mit zahlreichen Fragmenten der Bildkunst aus der italienischen (Früh-)Renaissance besteht. Die so entstehende permanente Wahrnehmungsverwirrung – die einen besonderen Charme des Proust’schen Œuvres ausmacht – wirkt sich nicht nur auf die Art und Weise aus, wie Swann und Marcel die Gedankenbilder von sich selbst und die inneren Puppen (poupées intérieures) der von ihnen begehrten Frauen erschaffen, sondern lässt auch ein ‚Unbehagen der Geschlechter‘ aufkeimen, infolgedessen traditionelle Geschlechterrollen hinterfragt werden.
Enregisterment del rotacismo, del ceceo y de la fricativa en Andalucía Occidental
Authors: Harjus Jannis
Published: July 2020

Esta contribución parte de la hipótesis de que varios discursos metalingüísticos de las últimas décadas, entre otros fomentadas por actividades culturales como el cine o las series de televisión, han contribuido a construir discursivamente las hablas andaluzas como una variedad del español. Se utilizan determinadas características fonético-fonológicas salientes del español hablado en Andalucía occidental para crear una realidad discursiva. Para describir mejor estos procesos, la teoría del enregisterment forma la base de esta contribución, ya que nos guía en especial a una comprensión más profunda de la producción social de variedades lingüísticas, también en el dominio cultural, y su clasificación social en la comunidad lingüística en general. Este trabajo analiza cómo funciona el enregisterment mediante el uso de fenómenos fonético-fonológicos – ceceo, rotacismo y fricatización – por parte de protagonistas ficticios de la serie de televisión Allí Abajo y a través de sus comentarios metalingüísticos.

De 1876 à sa mort en 1885, Victor Hugo, l’un des écrivains français les plus célèbres du XIXe siècle, siège au Sénat. Ce mandat est très peu évoqué dans les biographies qui lui sont consacrées. Pourtant, loin d’être un temps d’effacement, cette période correspond aux derniers grands combats de l’homme politique républicain. Après une élection difficile, Victor Hugo devenu sénateur poursuit sa lutte contre le pouvoir personnel et en faveur de l’amnistie des communards. À la faveur de la victoire républicaine, il devient à la fin de sa vie une figure tutélaire de la Haute Assemblée.

L' Europe latine dans les olympismes alternatifs
Authors: Dumas Clément
Published: July 2020

Durant l’entre-deux-guerres, le mouvement olympique peine à intégrer en son sein les marges féminines et ouvrières. Ces dernières se structurent en fédérations nationales et internationales qui organisent des jeux alternatifs pour défendre la légitimité du sport féminin et promouvoir la culture sportive ouvrière. Cet article propose d’envisager la dimension sociale, culturelle et politique de ces compétitions en prenant l’Europe latine comme cadre d’analyse. L’organisation des jeux permet de révéler le lien entre réseau associatif, institutionnel, politique, et l’importance des infrastructures sportives. L’analyse des résultats et de la composition des délégations appuie une histoire comparée de la situation des marges sportives dans des pays aux trajectoires politiques différentes. Espace d’expression sportive des marges, les jeux alternatifs font rejaillir les craintes et les discours réprobateurs et sont révélateurs des tensions sociales et politiques de l’entre-deux-guerres : la place de la femme, le combat des mouvements ouvriers contre le fascisme.

Published: July 2020

El propósito de este artículo es señalar, desde la perspectiva de treinta años de creación de la Escuela de Bibliotecología y Ciencias de la Información de la Universidad de Costa Rca, el camino que ha recorrido esta profesión frente a un contexto más allá del aula, de cara a tendencias mundiales. Hacer un análisis crítico de todas las corrientes y las tendencias que han permeado o influenciado la práctica y la enseñanza de esta profesión, a partir de la creación de la Internet y que vienen produciendo nuevas y variadas formas de interacción, en consecuencia, nuevas demandas de parte de un usuario que hoy en día maneja una muy buena experiencia y conocimiento en tecnologías de información. También, tanto el usuario como la persona profesional de la información, enfrentan una gran incertidumbre sobre cómo manejar, adquirir y ofrecer lo que se necesita, en una sociedad inundada por información y formas de obtenerla. Se analiza un nuevo entorno humano y tecnológico, donde los conocimientos, su creación y su propagación son definitorios de las relaciones entre los individuos y entre las naciones y que deben integrarse en la enseñanza de la Bibliotecología y las Ciencias de la Información.  Desde esta perspectiva, se revisa en literatura pertinente, la capacidad de gestionar información, que luego se convierta en conocimiento, a partir de herramientas que proporcionan un ámbito diversificado entre contexto, contenido y usuario y que supone, fundamentalmente, desarrollar para un determinado contexto una capacidad de aprendizaje, basada en creatividad e intuición.  Al desarrollar las tendencias más recurrentes para la profesión de Ciencias de la Información, se incursiona en las aplicaciones que contribuyen en forma rotunda a la gestión del conocimiento y que están marcando pautas en la organización, acceso y manejo de la información, desde el ámbito de la Sociedad de la Información.  En un mundo virtual expandido vertiginosamente, se analizan  las tendencias basadas en gestión del lenguaje, las tecnologías de punta y el surgimiento de la Arquitectura de la Información, convirtiéndose en aportes imprescindibles, no solo en una era donde la gestión del conocimiento es imprescindible para crear, diversificar, competir, compartir y expandir las posibilidades de acceso a la información, dentro de un mundo globalizado, sino que han cobrado vida a través de un valor económico y social no tenían.
Rediscovery, new island record, and clarification of the geographic distribution of Oligodon perkinsi (Taylor, 1925) (Squamata, Colubridae), a poorly known endemic snake from the Palawan faunal region of western Philippines

Increasing and decreasing the calmness of the heart greatly influences the behavior in living everyday life, both in worldly and ukhrawi's affairs. Peace of mind; one of them obtained by way of dzikir, remembering Allah SWT. Referring to the science of Sufism, dzikir can be interpreted as an activity by doing or reading a holy reading that causes someone to remember God with all his greatness. Likewise, any work that gives rise to remembering Allah is also called dzikir.This study aims to determine how much influence the remembrance of the level of peace of mind of the worshipers of woman dzikir at Al-Barokah Mosque in Bandung.The type or research method used is quantitative, where researchers analyze research data using statistical calculations.

And the influence of dzikir with peace of mind is classified as low at 12% while 88% the level of Peace of Heart is influenced by other variables not examined.
A note on congruence properties of the generalized bi-periodic Horadam sequence
Authors: TAN Elif , LEUNG Ho Hon
Published: July 2020

In this paper, we consider a generalization of Horadam sequence $\left\{w_{n}\right\} $ which is defined by the recurrence $w_{n}=aw_{n-1}+cw_{n-2},$ if $n$ is even, $w_{n}=bw_{n-1}+cw_{n-2},$ if $n$ is odd with arbitrary initial conditions $w_{0},w_{1}$ and nonzero real numbers $a,b,$ and $c.$ We investigate some congruence properties of the generalized Horadam sequence $\{ w_{n}\}$.
Quasi regular modules and trivial extension

Recall that a ring $R\ $is said to be a quasi regular ring if its total quotient ring $q(R)\ $is \textit{von Neumann regular}. It is well known that a ring $R\ $is quasi regular if and only if it is a reduced ring satisfying the property: for each $a\in R,$ $ann_{R}(ann_{R}(a))=ann_{R}(b)$ for some $b\in R$. Here, in this study, we extend the notion of quasi regular rings and rings which satisfy the aforementioned property to modules. We give many characterizations and properties of these two classes of modules. Moreover, we investigate the (weak) quasi regular property of trivial extension.
Reversibility of skew Hurwitz series rings
Authors: KAYNARCA Fatma , YILDIRIM Muhammed Ali
Published: July 2020

We study the reversibility of skew Hurwitz series at zero as a generalization of an $\alpha$-rigid ring, introducing the concept of skew Hurwitz reversibility. A ring $R$ is called skew Hurwitz reversible ($SH$-reversible, for short), if the skew Hurwitz series ring $(HR,\alpha)$ is reversible i.e. whenever skew Hurwitz series $f, g\in (HR,\alpha)$ satisfy $fg=0$, then $gf=0$. We examine some characterizations and extensions of $SH$-reversible rings in relation with several ring theoretic properties which have roles in ring theory.

Education for Tackling Climate Change
Authors: Bassey Michael
Published: July 2020

Young people not only need to know about what is causing the climate to change for the worse as the Earth heats up, but also need to develop the personal skills to tackle the challenges that they may face in the future. For schools to support this effectively and in relation to community
development, government control of the school curriculum must give way to collegial planning by teachers within their schools.
