Authors: AKSU Gizem , ALTAY Hamit
Published: August 2020

This is the second in a series of papers describing the effects of potassium applications on drought stress in sugar beet. Drought is a natural phenomenon that can affect water resources and agriculture. In this research, the effect of potassium applications under drought stress on some plant nutrition of sugar beet, which is a strategic plant, was investigated. In the experiment, irrigation levels were kept at 33%, 66% and 100% of field capacity. Different doses (10-20-40-80 mg kg-1) of potassium were applied to the plants. The plants were grown in the growth chamber under controlled conditions (day/night 16/8 hours, 25/15 0C, 60-70% humidity). According to the results, the effect of irrigation x potassium interaction on the shoot and root sodium (Na) potassium (K) calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) content Na/K and Na/K ratio was found to be statistically significant. Shoot and root sodium content decreased with potassium applications under drought conditions (33%). Shoot and root potassium, phosphorus content increased with potassium applications in both drought and sufficient water conditions. Shoot calcium content change irregular with potassium application while root calcium decreased with potassium application under drought conditions (33%). Shoot and root sodium/potassium ratio decreased with potassium applications in both drought and sufficient water conditions. Shoot and root sodium/calcium ratio change irregular with potassium applications. Therefore, it can be said that potassium may play a critical role in reducing the negative effect of drought stress and uptake plant nutrition in sugar beet.

HACCP IN CLEAN FOOD PRODUCTION: AN OVERVIEW
Authors: Singh Degpal , Kumar Anit , Singh Amandeep
Published: August 2020

For the food security of more than 1.3 billion people, India has to keep on producing more but safe food. Various techniques have been developed over the time for keeping a check on the quality of food. Of those, HACCP i.e., Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points is one which ensures the quality of food during the production or the processing of food. HACCP is based on seven principles and is a risk management system that identifies, evaluates, and controls hazards (biological, chemical and physical) related to food safety throughout the food supply chain. The concept first came to light in 1960s and in India it started early in 2000. HACCP is a protocol for all the stakeholders involved in food industry for the production of safe food. As the HACCP lays emphasis on “Clean Production”, therefore, it ensures the use of every single resource whether it may be water, energy or any raw material in an efficient way leading to manufacture of a priced commodity and letting out less harmful and meager waste products.
METAFICTITONAL NARRATIVE QUALITIES OF CHIMERA
Authors: Farahbakhsh Alireza , Yazdani Narges Yeke
Published: August 2020

This paper seeks to discern the narratological aspects of John Barth's famous essay titled “Literature of Exhaustion” in narrative qualities of his own novel, Chimera. Different narrative elements are discussed in the process of reading the essay; they include “The Construction and Deconstruction of Illusions in Chimera”, “The Orchestration of Polyphony of Voices”, “The Decadence of Mythology” and “Barth’s Success in the Pedagogy of Writing”. Each concept will be discussed in a separate section. The first section aims to discuss the concept of metafiction. Barth tries to represent the clash between real and represented worlds to confirm the fact that the boundary between reality and fiction becomes vague in the process of the novel. The second section focuses on "Heteroglossia" as one of the major themes of the novel. All of the characters represent Barth's voice in Chimera. The third section examines the influence of mythology and its decadence. The author attempts to advance a new method of writing by the traditional mimic forms and intertexual games. The last section intends to examine Barth's pedagogy of writing. He tries to create new fictions out of what already has been said in the world of fiction. The article concludes that Chimera is a rich postmodern novel that can be a role-model for writers to avoid originality and writer's block in writing.

School Effects Revisited: The Size, Stability, and Persistence of Middle Schools’ Effects on Academic Outcomes
Authors: Lloyd Tracey , Schachner Jared N.
Published: August 2020

Since the early 2000s, educational evaluation research has primarily centered on teachers’, rather than schools’, contributions to students’ academic outcomes due to concerns that estimates of the latter were smaller, less stable, and more prone to measurement error. We argue that this disparity should be reduced. Using administrative data from three cohorts of Massachusetts public school students ( N = 123,261) and two-level models, we estimate middle schools’ value-added effects on eighth-grade and 10th-grade math scores and, importantly, a non–test score outcome: 4-year college enrollment. Comparing our results to teacher-centered studies, we find that school effects (encompassing both teaching- and nonteaching-related factors) are initially smaller but nearly as stable and perhaps more persistent than are individual teacher effects. Our study motivates future research estimating the long-term effects of both teachers and schools on a wide range of outcomes.

SETDB2 is differentially expressed following infection with the coronavirus family.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: August 2020

Epigenetic mechanisms are important means by which the host defends itself against pathogenic insults. We mined published and public microarray datasets (1-6) to discover conserved epigenetic machinery mobilized by the coronavirus family and identified significant differential expression of the H3K9me3 histone lysine methyltransferase SETDB2 (7) by multiple human coronaviruses, including the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome virus SARS-CoV-1. These data suggest induction of SETDB2 - and perhaps the H3K9me3 mark - may be important for the coronavirus life cycle or for immune defense against coronaviruses.

This visual case study was built to study the effectiveness of scrollytelling in tandem with tile grid maps. Specifically, we built this interactive based on Google’s Community Mobility data measuring people’s movement before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. We designed a dynamic and interactive format to display auto-generated narratives synchronized with the context of the grid map. We believe the use of narratives in grid map context will be a useful storytelling format. This paper describes the design decisions that went into building this interactive format.
Reducing implicit cognitive biases through the performing arts
Authors: Arch Josué García , Ventura-Gabarró Cèlia , Adamuz Pedro Lorente , Calvo Pep Gatell , Fuentemilla Lluís
Published: August 2020

The main purpose of the present research was to test whether involvement in a 14-day training program on the performing arts could reduce implicit biases. We asked healthy participants to complete an Implicit Association Test (IAT) to assess biased attitudes to physical illness in two separate sessions, before and after the training program. A separate control group matched by age, gender and educational level completed the two IAT sessions, separated by same number of days, without being involved in the training program. Results showed that participants who were involved in the training program reduced their implicit bias towards illness measured through IAT in the second session. This reduction in IAT measures was not observed in the control sample, despite the two IAT measures being matched in temporal delay with the experimental group. These findings suggest that an interventional program based on the performing arts could be effective in reducing levels of implicit biases among the general population.
The Influence of Autoregressive Relation Strength and Search Strategy on Directionality Recovery in GIMME
Authors: Weigard Alexander Samuel , Lane Stephanie , Gates Kathleen , Beltz Adriene M.
Published: August 2020

Unified structural equation modeling (uSEM) implemented in the Group Iterative Multiple Model Estimation (GIMME) framework has recently been widely used for characterizing within-person network dynamics of behavioral and functional neuroimaging variables. Previous studies have established that GIMME accurately recovers the presence of relations between variables. However, recovery of relation directionality is less consistent, which is concerning given the importance of directionality estimates for many research questions. There is evidence that strong autoregressive relations may aid directionality recovery and indirect evidence that a novel version of GIMME allowing for multiple solutions could improve recovery when such relations are weak, but it remains unclear how these strategies perform under a range of study conditions. Using comprehensive simulations that varied the strength of autoregressive relations among other factors, this study evaluated the directionality recovery of two GIMME search strategies: 1) estimating autoregressive relations by default in the null model (GIMME-AR), and 2) generating multiple solution paths (GIMME-MS). Both strategies recovered directionality best – and were roughly equivalent in performance – when autoregressive relations were strong (e.g., β = .60). When they were weak (β <= .10), GIMME-MS displayed an advantage, although overall directionality recovery was modest. Analyses of empirical data in which autoregressive relations were characteristically strong (resting state fMRI) versus weak (daily diary) mirrored simulation results and confirmed that these strategies can disagree on directionality when autoregressive relations are weak. Findings have important implications for psychological and neuroimaging applications of uSEM/GIMME and suggest specific scenarios in which researchers might or might not be confident in directionality results.

Published: August 2020

This paper investigates why Israeli citizens complied with measures taken to mitigate the spread of the COVID-19 virus in early April. At the time, Israel had relatively stringent mitigation measures that encouraged people to stay at home and keep a safe social distance. The data of 411 adult participants, gathered using survey research, showed that overall, compliance levels at that time were high. It finds that compliance depended on a combination of moral factors, such as people’s moral duty to obey the law and people’s tendency to obey the law generally. In addition, people who had friends over 75 years old were more likely to comply. Furthermore, people were more likely to comply if they were able to do so, and less likely to violate if they did not have the opportunity to do so. The study did not find that fear of punishment (deterrence) was significantly associated with compliance. Overall, these findings are in line with studies conducted the United States, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands.

Authors: Shrestha Lajana , Dahal Sirjana
Published: August 2020

Introduction: Complete loss of teeth, though not life threatening, does have a significant impact on an individual, resulting in functional, psychological, and social limitations, affecting the quality of life and general health. Oral health related quality of life describes the outcomes of oral health conditions and therapy to those conditions.

Objective: Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index questionnaire (GOHAI) consists of 12 items that have an impact on quality of life of the older population, such as functional limitation, psycho-social limitation, and self-medication administered for dental pain. The study aimed to assess the effects of complete edentulousness before prosthodontic rehabilitation using GOHAI.

Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional questionnaire study was done among 35 completely edentulous patients prior to prosthodontic rehabilitation using standardised GOHAI questionnaire consisting of 12 items and the twelfth item was eliminated due to its irrelevancy in the study group.

Results: The mean age of the participants was 64.86±8.28 years with the mean duration of edentulousness of 4.02±5.4 years. The ability to swallow comfortably had highest mean GOHAI score (2.80±0.47) followed by use of medication to relieve pain and discomfort around the mouth. The least mean GOHAI score was found in trouble biting or chewing any kinds of food, such as firm meat or apples (1.26±0.56). However, the psychosocial impairment due to problems associated with complete edentulousness was less.

Conclusion: Complete edentulousness was associated with impairment in physical functions like trouble in biting and chewing, with a need to limit the kinds and amount of food.

Authors: Rajkarnikar Junima , Acharya Jemish , Yadav Karnika
Published: August 2020

Introduction: Tissue destruction of supporting periodontal tissues is mediated by an overreactive immune inflammatory response to bacteria in the subgingival environment. Tissue destruction in periodontitis occurs by the stimulatory action of pro inflammatory cytokines and proteolytic enzymes released by neutrophils, macrophages, and the action of bone resorption mediators, all of which are being regulated by B and T cells. Periodontitis act as a focus of infection and bacteria metastases through blood stream to various vital organs like heart, lungs, joints and amniotic fluid.

Objective: To assess the awareness of periodontal medicine among medical students at a tertiary care center in Kathmandu.

Methods: A total of 115 subjects were taken for the present study. Data was collected using a questionnaire which included questions used to assess the knowledge about periodontal diseases and its possible effects on systemic conditions.

Results: Out of the total participants, 58 (50.4%) said that periodontal disease was not related to coronary heart diseases. Only 14 (12.2%) had an idea about the association of pre-term birth and periodontitis. While 86 (74.8%) knew the impact of diabetes on periodontium, only 34 (29.6%) said that there was an association between periodontitis and hospital acquired pneumonia.

Conclusion: Knowledge about the association of periodontal disease with various systemic conditions is not satisfactory among the various medical students of this hospital.

GROWTH AND RELATIVE CHLOROPHYLL LEVELS IN SUNFLOWER PLANTS SUPPLEMENTED WITH MIXED ALGAE - Hypnea pseudomusciformis OR Ulva fasciata
 
ABSTRACT:
The work’s aim was to analyze the effects of the use of Hypnea pseudomusciformis, Ulva fasciata, and mixed algae, collected at Pacheco Beach, Caucaia-CE on sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) plants evaluating: growth variables and relative chlorophyll levels. The work was conducted under greenhouse conditions. Sunflower seeds were sown in five-liter plastic buckets. The experiment was divided in eight treatments: sand (100% of the volume in sand); sand + 100% of nitrogen  recommendation (NR) in humus; 100% of NR in mixed algae, 50% of NR in mixed algae; 100% of NR in Hypnea pseudomusciformis, 50% of NR in Hypnea pseudomusciformis, 100% of NR in Ulva fasciata and 50% of NR in Ulva fasciata. The use of "arribadas algae" caused improvement in plant growth variables analyzed in comparison to plants growing on sand or sand + humus substrate. The best results were observed at 50% of NR in mixed algae. Thus, the use of "arribadas algae" as fertilizers presented itself as a viable alternative, generating reduction of production costs.
Key words: Helianthus annuus L.; organic fertilization; macroalgae.

Cidadania no discurso das Diretrizes Curriculares do curso de Ciências Contábeis

Published: August 2020

A cidadania funciona como uma prática discursiva, quando inscrita no modelo do capitalismo neoliberal contemporâneo de educação produz efeito de sentidos na simetria da trilogia de educação/trabalho/cidadania, interpelando o sujeito contador. A cidadania das ciências contábeis desliza para uma cidadania empresarial ou corporativa que se (re)produz um discurso político e social homogêneo e hegemônico. Dessa forma, levanta-se a questão: Nas Diretrizes Curriculares para o Curso de Graduação em Ciências Contábeis (DCCC) que orientam as propostas pedagógicas dos Cursos de Ciências Contábeis no Brasil está presente a questão da cidadania na educação/trabalho? Como funciona a discursividade da cidadania? O objetivo é analisar o funcionamento discursivo da questão da cidadania apresentada nas DCCC que orientam as propostas pedagógicas dos Cursos de Ciências Contábeis no Brasil. A metodologia está apoiada na perspectiva teórico-metodológica da Análise de Discurso de filiação a Pêcheux e Eni Orlandi, pode ser caracterizada quanto aos objetivos como explicativa, com delineamento de pesquisa documental baseado nas DCCC e tratamento e análise dos dados qualitativo. Os resultados desta análise demonstram que o profissional da contabilidade vive um conflito em ser cidadão e ser profissional conforme as DCCC. O enunciado “cidadania”, faz parte de uma constelação de enunciados: produzido por discursos de governos e discursos empresariais, esse enunciado se torna edificante, funcionando como se fosse dignidade, orgulho, sucesso ou mesmo capacitação.
Eine neue Perspektive auf die Stromdichte
Authors: Lucena Lucas Ruas de
Published: August 2020

Dieser Artikel behandelt alternative und ergänzende Vorschläge zu J.C.Maxwell Gesetzen des klassischen Elektromagnetismus, basierend auf bestimmten Hypothesen, hypothetischen Beispielen und Berechnungen, mit Ergebnissen, die neue Interpretationen über die physikalische Phänomenleitungsstromdichte ableiten können. Diese neuen Interpretationen bringen ein neues Verständnis für die Dynamik des Gauss-Gesetzes und machen das Ampère-Maxwell-Gesetz, wahrlich, völlig symmetrisch zum Faraday-Lenz-Maxwell-Gesetz, ohne mathematische oder physische Inkonsistenz. Diese Verständigungen bringen unweigerlich Implikationen und Standpunkte, die die klassische Theorie des Elektromagnetismus ergänzen.
O Tribunal Penal Internacional: Composição, competência e conflitos aparentes com disposições constantes na Constituição brasileira
Authors: Delfino Leonardo , Silva Marco Antonio Marques da
Published: August 2020

Criado pelo Estatuto de Roma, o Tribunal Penal Internacional (TPI) é órgão ao qual o Estado Brasileiro está submetido à sua jurisdição, malgrado o estudo acerca dos fatos históricos que lhe deram origem, da sua composição e do seu funcionamento seja relegado por boa parte da doutrina jurídica brasileira. Por meio deste artigo visa-se a debater acerca dos fatos históricos que deram origem à criação do primeiro Tribunal permanente na história com competência para julgamento de pessoas físicas pela prática de crimes contra a humanidade, crimes de guerra, genocídio e agressão, bem como expor as limitações que a jurisdição do Tribunal Penal Internacional encontra na Constituição da República Federativa do Brasil de 1988. A pesquisa foi realizada pelo método bibliográfico e por análise legislativa, concluindo-se que existem conflitos aparentes entre o Estatuto de Roma e a Constituição Federal que devem ser sopesados pelo intérprete, a fim de que aquele Diploma não prevaleça sobre a lei maior, assim como que o Tribunal Internacional é um importante instrumento na defesa dos Direitos Humanos.
Eficiencia económica y sistemas legales
Authors: Garoupa Nuno , Gómez Ligüerre Carlos
Published: August 2020

Hace décadas que la literatura económica sobre sistemas legales asume que los ordenamientos jurídicos del Common law promueven resultados más eficientes que los que son propios de las jurisdicciones pertenecientes a la tradición jurídica del Civil law. El fundamento de tal afirmación estaría en una predisposición estructural del Common law para hallar la solución legal que mejor se aviene a las necesidades del mercado. El presente trabajo discute el acierto de esa afirmación. Lo hace desde una perspectiva metodológica.

Published: August 2020

In this population-based study, we determined the prevalence of chronic kidney disease of community in remote areas of Ranau, Sabah to have accurate information for health-care planning. It also investigated the association of risk factors with the prevalence of CKD. A sample of 270 individuals, compared to the study of the National Health and Morbidity Survey 2011, of the adult population (over 18 years old) undertaken in West Malaysia. We measured the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) using this CKD-EPI equation. The total prevalence of chronic kidney disease in this group was 53%. An estimated 3.3% had stage 1 chronic kidney disease (eGFR >90 ml/min per 1.73m2), 32.6% had stage 2 (eGFR 60–89 ml/min per 1.73m2), 4.1% had stage 3 (eGFR 30–59 ml/min per 1.73m2), 7% had stage 4 (eGFR 15–29 ml/min per 1.73m2), and 6% had stage 5 chronic kidney disease (eGFR <15 ml/min per 1.73m2). Only 4% of respondents with chronic kidney disease were aware of their diagnosis. The significant risk factors included family history of kidney disease, alcohol consumption, smoking status, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia. Thus, chronic kidney disease in East Malaysia is common and warrants early detection, and treatment to potentially improve outcomes can be implemented.

This study is aimed to find out the language attitude of Simalungun people toward vernacular maintenance in Pematang Siantar. The data were collected from the Simalungun people living in Sitalasari district Pematang Siantar regency. The study employs qualitative research design with some informant’s consent with the need of this research to get understanding. The subjects of this study were 18 Simalungun people (17 years old to 25 years old). The instruments used for collecting data were questionnaire sheet, observation sheet, recording and interview. The data from questionnaire sheet were used to examine the language attitude. The findings show that there are 10 (55, 6 %) informants who have negative attitude and 8 (44. 4 %) informants have the positive attitude. These are influenced by three different factors which affect the attitude, namely; the tendency of language disloyalty, lack of pride and unawareness of the norm. This causes the language to be less frequency in use particularly in daily social life communication.
