Natural Resource Management for the World’s Highest Park: Community Attitudes on Sustainability for Central Karakoram National Park, Pakistan
Authors: Hussain Talib , Abbas Jaffar , Li Benqian , Aman Jaffar , Ali Sajjad
Published: June 2017

The management of natural resources has become a crucial agenda item at the community level of every country, due to the importance of a community’s direct involvement in the stewardship of these resources. The sustainable management of natural resources is not easy without the involvement of the community. To know the attitudes of residents in the communities in close proximity to Central Karakoram National Park (CKNP) towards natural resource sustainable management policy, a study of CKNP in northern Pakistan was conducted. This is the first community study for this park. It is difficult to overstate the economic and geographic importance of this national resource to the Pakistani people at local and national levels, as well as at the international level. This is the world’s highest public park; as a natural resource it is not only important to the local community, it also has great relevance internationally. The study attempted to gauge the attitudes of the local community towards the sustainable management practices of CKNP. The results of this study showed generally positive attitudes towards the park. The majority of respondents revealed that the park’s primary appeal is its geographic location. Households were afraid that pollution in the park will gradually destroy the park’s natural resources. For sustainable management of the CKNP, community members expressed willingness to contribute to the betterment of park through volunteerism. Community members praised the government’s supportive actions, including budgetary support and public-awareness campaigns. As such, the positive attitude of the community towards the CKNP also revealed new insights for the community-centered sustainable management of natural resources in developing countries. This study also provides a research gap for future work relating to the sustainable management of community-based natural resources to consider more factors beside the factors used in this study.

We report the discovery and the analysis of the planetary microlensing event, OGLE-2013-BLG-1761. There are some degenerate solutions in this event because the planetary anomaly is only sparsely sampled. However, the detailed light-curve analysis ruled out all stellar binary models and shows the lens to be a planetary system. There is the so-called close/wide degeneracy in the solutions with the planet/host mass ratio of q ∼ (7.0 ± 2.0) × 10−3 and q ∼ (8.1 ± 2.6) × 10−3 with the projected separation in Einstein radius units of s = 0.95 (close) and s = 1.18 (wide), respectively. The microlens parallax effect is not detected, but the finite source effect is detected. Our Bayesian analysis indicates that the lens system is located 

away from us and the host star is an M/K dwarf with a mass of

orbited by a super-Jupiter mass planet with a mass of

at the projected separation of

. The preference of the large lens distance in the Bayesian analysis is due to the relatively large observed source star radius. The distance and other physical parameters may be constrained by the future high-resolution imaging by large ground telescopes or HST. If the estimated lens distance is correct, then this planet provides another sample for testing the claimed deficit of planets in the Galactic bulge.
The State-of-the-art HST Astro-photometric Analysis of the Core of ω Centauri. II. Differential-reddening Map∗
Authors: Bellini A. , Anderson J. , van der Marel R. P. , King I. R. , Piotto G. , Bedin L. R.
Published: June 2017

We take advantage of the exquisite quality of the Hubble Space Telescope astro-photometric catalog of the core of ωCen presented in the first paper of this series to derive a high-resolution, high-precision, high-accuracy differential-reddening map of the field. The map has a spatial resolution of 2 × 2 arcsec2 over a total field of view of about 4.′3 × 4.′3. The differential reddening itself is estimated via an iterative procedure using five distinct color–magnitude diagrams, which provided consistent results to within the 0.1% level. Assuming an average reddening value E(B − V) = 0.12, the differential reddening within the cluster’s core can vary by up to ±10%, with a typical standard deviation of about 4%. Our differential-reddening map is made available to the astronomical community in the form of a multi-extension FITS file. This differential-reddening map is essential for a detailed understanding of the multiple stellar populations of ωCen, as presented in the next paper in this series. Moreover, it provides unique insight into the level of small spatial-scale extinction variations in the Galactic foreground.

We present ALMA mosaic observations at 1.3 mm (223 GHz) of the Fomalhaut system with a sensitivity of 14 μJy/beam. These observations provide the first millimeter map of the continuum dust emission from the complete outer debris disk with uniform sensitivity, enabling the first conclusive detection of apocenter glow. We adopt an MCMC modeling approach that accounts for the eccentric orbital parameters of a collection of particles within the disk. The outer belt is radially confined with an inner edge of 136.3 ± 0.9 au and width of 13.5 ± 1.8 au. We determine a best-fit eccentricity of 0.12 ± 0.01. Assuming a size distribution power-law index of q = 3.46 ± 0.09, we constrain the dust absorptivity power-law index β to be 0.9 < β < 1.5. The geometry of the disk is robustly constrained with inclination 65.°6 ± 0.°3, position angle 337.°9 ± 0.°3, and argument of periastron 22.°5 ± 4.°3. Our observations do not confirm any of the azimuthal features found in previous imaging studies of the disk with Hubble Space Telescope, SCUBA, and ALMA. However, we cannot rule out structures ≤10 au in size or that only affect smaller grains. The central star is clearly detected with a flux density of 0.75 ± 0.02 mJy, significantly lower than predicted by current photospheric models. We discuss the implications of these observations for the directly imaged Fomalhaut b and the inner dust belt detected at infrared wavelengths.

We present a new matched-filter algorithm for direct detection of point sources in the immediate vicinity of bright stars. The stellar point-spread function (PSF) is first subtracted using a Karhunen-Loéve image processing (KLIP) algorithm with angular and spectral differential imaging (ADI and SDI). The KLIP-induced distortion of the astrophysical signal is included in the matched-filter template by computing a forward model of the PSF at every position in the image. To optimize the performance of the algorithm, we conduct extensive planet injection and recovery tests and tune the exoplanet spectra template and KLIP reduction aggressiveness to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of the recovered planets. We show that only two spectral templates are necessary to recover any young Jovian exoplanets with minimal S/N loss. We also developed a complete pipeline for the automated detection of point-source candidates, the calculation of receiver operating characteristics (ROC), contrast curves based on false positives, and completeness contours. We process in a uniform manner more than 330 data sets from the Gemini Planet Imager Exoplanet Survey and assess GPI typical sensitivity as a function of the star and the hypothetical companion spectral type. This work allows for the first time a comparison of different detection algorithms at a survey scale accounting for both planet completeness and false-positive rate. We show that the new forward model matched filter allows the detection of 50% fainter objects than a conventional cross-correlation technique with a Gaussian PSF template for the same false-positive rate.
Possible Quasi-periodic Modulation in the z = 1.1 Gamma-Ray Blazar PKS 0426–380

Published: June 2017

We search for γ-ray and optical periodic modulations in distant flat-spectrum radio quasar (FSRQ) PKS 0426–380 (the redshift z = 1.1). Using two techniques (i.e., the maximum likelihood optimization and the exposure-weighted aperture photometry), we obtain γ-ray light curves from Fermi-LAT Pass 8 data covering from 2008 August to 2016 December. We then analyze the light curves with the Lomb–Scargle periodogram and the weighted wavelet Z-transform. A γ-ray quasi-periodicity with a period of 3.35 ± 0.68 yr is found at the significance level of

. The optical–UV flux covering from 2005 August to 2013 April provided by the ASI Science Data Center is also analyzed, but no significant quasi-periodicity is found. It should be pointed out that the result of the optical–UV data could be tentative because of the incompleteness of the data. Further long-term multiwavelength monitoring of this FSRQ is needed to confirm its quasi-periodicity.

Apparition d’un nouveau risque, le risque inhérent à la RSE, analyse de la littérature internationale et point de vue d’experts français
Authors: Igalens Jacques , Tahri Najoua
Published: June 2017

La gestion des risques apparait dans les entreprises après la deuxième guerre mondiale mais, à l’époque, elle se traduisait essentiellement par un transfert des risques vers l’assureur. Seuls les risques d’accidents faisaient l’objet d’un effort d’anticipation et de prévention. Aujourd’hui l’analyse et la gestion des risques sont devenues des activités très importantes car elles comportent des conséquences financières considérables. Pour cette raison, l’apparition d’une nouvelle classe de risques doit être prise au sérieux. Si on s’est intéressé depuis longtemps aux relations entre la Responsabilité Sociale de l’Entreprise et la performance économique, en revanche l’apparition de la notion de risque inhérent à la RSE est récente. Nous l’étudions à travers deux sources, la littérature scientifique (essentiellement anglo-saxonne) publiée depuis 2000 et l’avis d’experts francophones de la RSE, les membres du RIODD.
Mobilité entre générations et fluidité sociale en France
Authors: Vallet Louis-André
Published: June 2017

À partir des enquêtes Formation – Qualification Professionnelle (INSEE) de 1970, 1977, 1985, 1993 et 2003, cet article analyse l’évolution de la mobilité sociale entre générations et de la fluidité sociale en France pour les hommes et femmes nés entre 1906 et 1973. Il établit que l’association statistique entre classe d’origine et classe de destination est plus faible dans les cohortes récentes que dans les cohortes anciennes, et montre aussi que la même association s’atténue avec l’avancée en âge, c’est-à-dire au fil de la carrière professionnelle. Il établit enfin que le changement relatif à l’éducation a joué un rôle-clé dans l’accroissement de la fluidité sociale. Dans la cohorte 1945-1954, la réduction de l’inégalité des chances scolaires constitue le facteur principal et l’expansion de l’enseignement le facteur secondaire pour expliquer la réduction de l’inégalité des chances sociales, mais l’importance relative de ces deux facteurs est inversée dans les cohortes 1955-1964 et 1965-1973.
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder in Adults: Changes in Diagnostic Criteria in
DSM-5
Authors: Hashmi Ali M. , Imran Nazish , Ali Ali Ahsan , Shah Asim A.
Published: June 2017

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common and disabling disorder. Although its symptoms were described in children more than 100 years ago, its adult form has only recently received appropriate clinical attention. We now know that most children who develop symptoms of ADHD in childhood continue to manifest them past adolescence and into adulthood, and that these symptoms can negatively impact their personal, social, and occupational functioning. In this article, we focus on the evolution of the diagnostic criteria of ADHD over the years, including the latest iteration in the
Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(
DSM-5
), fifth edition. Although
DSM-5
has attempted to make the diagnosis of ADHD simpler in adults, some concerns remain, so this illness will need continued attention from both clinicians and researchers in the years to come.

To Prescribe or Not? Pharmacological Options in Adult Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
Authors: Aoshima-Kilroy Aya , Banu Sophia , Udoetuk Sade , Shah Asim A. , Moukaddam Nidal
Published: June 2017

As children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) age out of childhood and adolescence and into adulthood, their symptoms often persist. Faced with increasing demands from modern life, these patients often request treatment to help optimize functioning in work and home settings. The aim of treating adult ADHD is to help patients control distraction/inattention and to minimize psychomotor agitation. Once the diagnosis of ADHD is ascertained in adults, general treatment principles, including use of stimulants, should be followed but they must be weighed against an increased risk of diversion of stimulant medications in adults. Stimulants include amphetamines (with the closely related methylphenidate formulations often thought of as stimulants as well despite a different mechanism of action) and constitute the gold standard in treatment of ADHD. Nonstimulants such as atomoxetine, however, can play an extremely important role in treatment as well.

Adult Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: Diagnostic Dilemma with Case Examples
Authors: Shah Asim A. , French-Rosas Lindsay N. , Czelusta Kim-Lan T. , Banu Sophia , Han Jin Y.
Published: June 2017

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) usually is considered a childhood disease, and the
Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
, fifth edition, clearly mentions that symptoms should begin before age 12 years and cause functional impairment in two or more settings. Contrary to this known diagnostic criterion, clinicians routinely make a diagnosis of adult ADHD, at times without any documented childhood history. This article describes a few cases of adult ADHD to illustrate some key challenges in diagnosing adult presentations of ADHD. [

Published: June 2017

En este trabajo se describe el análisis realizado en 2015 para la evaluación de la accesibilidad de los portales web de las universidades públicas andaluzas. Con el fin de determinar si las universidades ofrecen información accesible, se ha comprobado el cumplimiento de las Pautas de Accesibilidad de Contenidos Web (WCAG 2.0) establecidas por el Consorcio World Wide Web (W3C). Para ello, se ha diseñado una metodología de análisis que combina tres herramientas automáticas (eXaminator, accesibilidad web del MINHAP, y TAW) y un análisis manual con objeto de dotar de mayor fiabilidad y validez a los resultados. Aunque en términos generales los resultados son aceptables, un análisis detallado muestra que aún queda camino por recorrer hasta conseguir una accesibilidad completa para toda la comunidad universitaria. A este respecto, en el trabajo se sugieren mejoras en los errores comunes encontrados sobre accesibilidad que puedan servir de ayuda al diseño web de las Universidades.
Innovation and Technology: Electronic Intensive Care Unit Diaries
Authors: Scruth Elizabeth A. , Oveisi Nazanin , Liu Vincent
Published: June 2017

Hospitalization in the intensive care unit can be a stressful time for patients and their family members. Patients’ family members often have difficulty processing all of the information that is given to them. Therefore, an intensive care unit diary can serve as a conduit for synthesizing information, maintaining connection with patients, and maintaining a connection with family members outside the intensive care unit. Paper intensive care unit diaries have been used outside the United States for many years. This article explores the development of an electronic intensive care unit diary using a rapid prototyping model to accelerate the process. Initial results of design testing demonstrate that it is feasible, useful, and desirable to consider the implementation of electronic intensive care unit diaries for patients at risk for post–intensive care syndrome.
Implementing Intensive Care Unit Family-Centered Care: Resources to Identify and Address Gaps
Authors: Hwang David Y. , El-Kareh Robert , Davidson Judy E.
Published: June 2017

During creation of the 2017 Society of Critical Care Medicine Guidelines for Family-Centered Care in the Intensive Care Unit, 2 implementation tools were developed to assist intensive care unit clinicians in incorporating the new recommendations into local practice: a gap analysis tool and a work tools document. The gap analysis tool helps intensive care unit teams rapidly develop unit- or organization-specific recommendations to enhance family-centered care and assess local barriers to implementation. The work tools document identifies readily available and tested resources that may further assist with action planning for change. The goal of these implementation tools is to promote rapid translation of the SCCM Guideline recommendations into practice, thereby streamlining the process of enacting meaningful evidence-based practice change.

Published: June 2017

Family-centered care is an important component of holistic nursing practice, particularly in critical care, where the impact on families of admitted patients can be physiologically and psychologically burdensome. Family-centered care guidelines, developed by an international group of nursing, medical, and academic experts for the American College of Critical Care Medicine/Society of Critical Care Medicine, explore the evidence base in 5 key areas of family-centered care. Evidence in each of the guideline areas is outlined and recommendations are made about how critical care nurses can use this information in family-centered care practice.
Die verhouding tussen Ou-Testamentiese wetenskap en Teologiese interpretasie van die Bybel: Handelinge 8:26–40 as gevallestudie
Authors: Viljoen Anneke
Published: June 2017

Theological interpretation of the Bible represents a broadening of the hermeneutical approaches available to an interpreter of Bible texts. As such, Theological interpretation of the Bible opens up the possibility to investigate and explore more aspects of the Bible text. Especially aspects that are in line with the nature of the Bible text such as Scriptures of the church as well as the illocutionary force of these texts. After a few introductory remarks concerning Theological interpretation of the Bible, three questions guided reflection on defining theological interpretation: first, Why Theological interpretation of the Bible?; second, What is Theological interpretation of the Bible not?; and third, What is Theological interpretation of the Bible? Last mentioned was explored on the basis of a focus text, namely Acts 8:26–40 that served as a case study.
Faith and reality: The role and contributions of the ecumenical church to the realities and development of South Africa since the advent of democracy in 1994
Authors: Pillay Jerry
Published: June 2017

Many Christians feel quite disillusioned and disappointed with the church in South Africa today because they assume that the church, in particular the South African Council of Churches (SACC), is not playing an adequate prophetic role in building the democratic South Africa since 1994. This article traces the role and contributions of the SACC and other ecumenical organisations to the building of a democratic South Africa. It establishes that whilst the SACC had lost its focus and vision and has an ecumenical body, largely because of its partnership with government, it does, nevertheless, continue to contribute to the building of the South African nation.
Data management for early hearing detection and intervention in South Africa
Authors: Moodley Selvarani , Storbeck Claudine
Published: June 2017

Introduction: Internationally, newborn hearing screening is becoming part of standard neonatal healthcare service guidelines for the implementation of early hearing detection and intervention (EHDI) initiatives, including screening, diagnosis, data management and intervention. Data management includes the processes of data collection and storage thereof, as well as analysis and interpretation of data to guide the future planning, implementation and evaluation of EHDI programmes. There have been limited studies on data management in the South African EHDI context.Methods: The aim of this study was to determine the type of data management systems in use in South Africa and whether they allow for cross-disciplinary sharing and evaluation of the EHDI processes. A survey instrument on the management of EHDI data was developed and sent to HI HOPES referral agents in both public and private sectors.Results: A return rate of 80% was achieved, with 19 (59%) public sector and 13 (41%) private sector audiologists participating in the study. The data revealed that there was no uniform data management system in use nationally, and no consistent shared system within the public or private sectors. The majority of respondents (44%) used a paper-based system for data recording. No institutions were using data management systems that enabled sharing of information with other medical professionals.Conclusion: Data management and tracking of the pathway from screening to diagnosis to intervention is necessary to ensure quality care and outcomes for children identified with hearing loss. International studies reveal the importance of effective implementation of data management systems; however, to date these have focussed on developed country contexts. Data management challenges identified in this study reflect international challenges as well as challenges unique to a developing country context.

A FHIR Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) Interface for Platelet Transfusion Support
Authors: Gordon William , Baronas Jane , Lane William
Published: June 2017

Platelet transfusions are a cornerstone of therapy for patients who develop thrombocytopenia while undergoing Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT). Many patients who develop Platelet Transfusion Refractoriness (PTR) require HLA-matched platelets. Identifying these patients early could lead to better utilization of platelets as well as increased platelet counts. We built a SMART on FHIR visualization tool to aid the oncology, blood bank, and blood donor center teams in identifying these patients by showing trends in thrombocytopenia along with a computer generated calculated Panel Reactive Antibody (cPRA) level. To do this, we required a FHIR interface to our HLA database. We describe our methods and outcome for constructing this FHIR interface, as well as the architecture and data flow of HLA data from its proprietary database to the SMART on FHIR environment and application database along with RESTful cPRA web service calculator. Future work will evaluate the clinical impact of this platelet visualization tool and overall success of our FHIR implementation.

Is the Truth Down There?: Cultural Heritage Conflict and the Politics of Archaeological Authority
Authors: Barber Ian
Published: June 2017

The selective pressures and processes of cultural heritage management effectively disinherit some interest groups. Where this occurs in the context of postcolonial or nationalist conflict, the material archaeological record may be referenced to support or reject particular views. The disciplinary assumptions behind the archaeological evidence so produced are not usually contested in judicial contexts. A review of archaeology’s theoretical foundations suggests that this naivety itself may be problematic. A descriptive culture history approach dominated archaeology over the first half of the twentieth century with a strong political appeal to nationalist politics. Subsequently archaeology became concerned with processual explanation and the scientific identification of universal laws of culture, consistent with postwar technological optimism and conformity. A postprocessual archaeology movement from the 1970s has promoted relativism and challenged the singular authority of scientific explanation. Archaeologists caught within this debate disagree over the use of the archaeological record in situations of political conflict. Furthermore, the use of archaeology in the sectarian debate over the Ayodhya birthplace of Rama suggests that the material record of the past can become highly politicized and seemingly irresolvable. Archaeological research is also subject to other blatant and subtle political pressures throughout the world, affecting the nature and interpretation of the record. A system that privileges archaeological information values may be irrelevant also to communities who value and manage their ancestral heritage for customary purposes. Collectively this review of theory and applied knowledge suggests that it is unrealistic to expect that archaeology can authoritatively resolve strident claims and debates about the past. Instead, an important contemporary contribution of archaeology may be its potential to document cultural and historical contradictions and inclusions for the consideration of contemporary groups in conflict.
Memorialising Gallipoli: Manufacturing Memory at Anzac
Authors: Scates Bruce
Published: June 2017

The memorials of Gallipoli have not lost their power to move, confront and often even inspire their visitors. Their meanings are re-visited, even re-invented by each successive generation of Anzac pilgrim and, contrary to the simplistic mono-dimensional readings of some historians, the Peninsula’s commemorative landscape remains a site of fierce contestation. Pacifist and patriot, back packer and bereaved all interpret it differently. Moreover, the memorials of Gallipoli continue to alert us to different cultures of commemoration; Christian, secular and Islamic, Turkish, British, French and Australian.
Trust, Risk and Public History: A View from the United States
Authors: Gardner James B.
Published: June 2017

In the public history and museum communities today there is much difference of opinion over the concept of ‘radical trust,’ which basically argues for us to give up control and trust the public to develop content for our websites and exhibitions and provide direction for our work. Most public historians and curators are happy to share authority with the public, but are we now expected to yield all authority? Are we now taking historian Carl Becker’s well-known phrase ‘everyman his own historian’ and updating it to ‘every person his or her own curator’? What is the role of historical knowledge in a world of opinion? Unfortunately, at the same time that many of us are embracing risk online, in a world we have little control or even influence over, we seem to be stepping back from risk taking in our museums, on our own turf. We’ve become risk averse—afraid to make mistakes, afraid of trying new approaches and tackling the historically controversial or the ambiguous. Rather than the ‘safe place for unsafe ideas’ that Elaine Gurian proposed, we have become no more than safe places for safe ideas. We need to push back on both fronts. Public historians should be thought leaders, not followers—not wait to see what the future holds for us but rather try to shape that future.
Introduction
Authors: Kean Hilda
Published: June 2017

This issue of Public History Review discusses aspects of the distinctive role of public historians that goes beyond an approach simply aimed at bringing in people to exhibitions or making historical knowledge ‘accessible’. As James Gardner argued in the last issue of Public History Review, ‘We are often our own worst enemy, failing to share what we do. If we want the public to value what we do, we need to share the process of history’. Opening up the premises underpinning different forms of historical representation can assist in widening the historical process and facilitate a way of understanding and making meaning.
Online and Plugged In?: Public History and Historians in the Digital Age
Authors: Foster Meg
Published: June 2017

This article examines the complex and powerful relationship between the internet and public history. It explores how public history is being experienced and practiced in a digital world where ‘you’ – both public historians and laypeople – are made powerful through using the world wide web. Web 2.0 is a dynamic terrain that provides both opportunities and challenges to the creation of history. While it may facilitate more open, democratic history making, the internet simultaneously raises questions about gatekeeping, authority and who has the right to speak for the past. Though the web provides new avenues for distributing historical information, how these are used and by whom remain pressing questions.
‘Real Photos’: Transforming Tindale and the Postcolonial Archive
Authors: Lydon Jane
Published: June 2017

When the Transforming Tindale exhibition opened at the State Library of Queensland in September 2012, there was much excitement and goodwill. This landmark exhibition was curated by Michael Aird and featured Ah Kee’s drawings and enlarged prints of anthropologist Norman Tindale’s photographs of 1938-1940, as well as extensive archival information and stories from the subjects themselves and their relatives. The transformations of the exhibition’s title refer to the way Tindale’s ‘data’ was given both new physical form, as well as engendering and renewing social meanings. Scholars such as Elizabeth Edwards have argued that we should explore the materiality of images and the diverse forms they assume, attending to the ways their form and vitality shape us as much as we imbue them with meaning. Digitisation constitutes a major transformation of photographs’ historical accumulation of materiality. It also enables the return of historical archives from European museums to Indigenous relatives in Australia. In this article I explore the relations and narratives that emerge from this process, focusing on their Indigenous significance, and using the example of an enigmatic cardboard panel held by the Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford on which are mounted thirteen photographs from South Australia. For Indigenous descendants of the people recorded in these photographs, their physical form is less important than the way they embody missing relatives, lost through invasion and assimilation. This process is slow and often awkward, but the rewards are great, in challenging foundational national histories, re-connecting family networks, and telling the truth of Indigenous experience.
The relationships between transforming growth factors β and free thyroxine and progesterone in the ovarian cysts, preovulatory follicles, and the serum of sows
Authors: Stankiewicz Tomasz
Published: June 2017

Abstract. The aim of the study was to determine the relationships between bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP-15) and growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF-9) concentrations and free thyroxine (FT4) and progesterone (P4) concentrations in follicular cysts, preovulatory follicles, and the serum of sows (cyst-bearing (n = 26) and non-cyst-bearing (n =  26)). FT4 and P4 concentrations were higher in the cystic fluid than in the fluid of preovulatory follicles (p <  0.01 and p <  0.05 respectively). BMP-15 and GDF-9 concentrations were higher in the serum of cyst-bearing sows than non-cyst-bearing sows (p <  0.05) and higher in the cystic fluid than in the follicular fluid (p <  0.05). In the cysts and preovulatory follicles, GDF-9 concentration was higher than in serum (p <  0.01). FT4 concentration in the serum of cystic sows was correlated with BMP-15 (r =  0.50, p <  0.05) and GDF-9 (r =  0.62, p <  0.01) concentrations in serum. In the serum of non-cyst-bearing sows, a positive correlation between P4 concentration and BMP-15 concentration (r =  0.60, p <  0.01) was detected. These data will help provide insight into the role of BMP-15, GDF-9, FT4, and P4 during cyst formation in sows.
Automated mineralogy based on energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence microscopy (µ-EDXRF) applied to plutonic rock thin sections in comparison to Mineral Liberation Analyser
Authors: Nikonow Wilhelm , Rammlmair Dieter
Published: June 2017

Abstract. Recent development in the application of energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry mapping (µ-EDXRF) has opened new opportunities for fast geoscientific analyses. Acquiring spatially resolved spectral and chemical information non-destructively for large samples of up to 20 cm length provides valuable information for geoscientific interpretation. Using supervised classification of the spectral information, mineral distribution maps can be obtained. In this work, thin sections of plutonic rocks are analyzed by µ-EDXRF and classified using the supervised classification algorithm Spectral Angle Mapper (SAM). Based on the mineral distribution maps, it is possible to obtain quantitative mineral information, i.e. to calculate the modal mineralogy, search and locate minerals of interest and perform image analysis. The results are compared to automated mineralogy obtained from the Mineral Liberation Analyser (MLA) of a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and show good accordance, revealing variation resulting mostly from the limit of spatial resolution of the µ-EDXRF instrument. Taking into account the little time needed for sample preparation and measurement, this method seems well suitable for fast sample overviews with valuable chemical, mineralogical and textural information, and additionally, enabling the researcher to make better and more targeted decisions for subsequent analyses.

POLÍTICAS DE COMÉRCIO INTERNACIONAL: UMA ANÁLISE PARA O COMÉRCIO DA SOJA
Authors: Sanguinet Eduardo Rodrigues , Coronel Daniel Arruda
Published: June 2017

Este artigo objetiva avaliar como as práticas de políticas comerciais impactam os principais atuantes no mercado internacional de soja. Aplicou-se o modelo de Equilíbrio Geral Computável GTAP (Global Trade Analysis Project), pelo qual foi possível simular cenários de adoção de políticas, mensurar seus efeitos sobre a produção, os preços e a balança comercial dos países que atuam no mercado de soja. No cenário onde se simulou que a China elimina tarifas de importação para o Brasil, Argentina e EUA, os efeitos para o mercado foram de elevação dos preços e das quantidades exportadas para esses três países e redução do preço da soja chinesa. Concluiu-se que incentivos à produção e à exportação, através de subsídios governamentais, são formas eficazes de tornarem seus países mais competitivos e, nesse contexto, mostrou-se que a China pode exercer forte pujança no mercado da soja, de acordo com a política adotada pelo governo.Este artigo objetiva avaliar como as práticas de políticas comerciais impactam os principais atuantes no mercado internacional de soja.

REGIÃO NORDESTE DO BRASIL E INTEGRAÇÃO COMERCIAL COM O MERCOSUL: PARCERIA SUSTENTADA?
Authors: BRAGA FRANCISCO LAERCIO PEREIRA , DE MELO MARIA CRISTINA PEREIRA , HOLANDA DIEGO RODRIGUES
Published: June 2017

O artigo teve como objetivo analisar o comércio exterior da Região Nordeste sob a ótica da natureza e da intensidade tomadas pelas transações comercias externas regionais no período de 2002 e 2014 face ao comportamento do parceiro comercial MERCOSUL. O comércio exterior regional foi analisado através de indicadores como saldo da balança comercial, corrente de comércio, índice de concentração, taxa de cobertura relativa das importações, coeficiente de especialização, market share e contribuição ao saldo da balança comercial. O comércio exterior da Região com o Bloco, ao longo dos anos, mostrou vantagem comparativa revelada particularmente para o estado do Maranhão, contudo, os estados do Ceará e Bahia vem conseguindo, de forma mais modesta, aumentar a competitividade de seus produtos direcionados ao MERCOSUL, sendo automóveis e calçados os principais responsáveis por tal comportamento. A Argentina apareceu como principal destino das vendas regionais para os setores citados, mostrando relativa fragilidade e dependência.
Barn och konst - samtal, kommunikation och demokrati
Authors: Lindh Yvonne
Published: June 2017

Artikeln fokuserar på förskolebarns möte med konst i form av offentlig utsmyckning. Femåriga förskolebarn besöker sex skulpturer, interagerar med dem, med varandra och med sin lärare. De tecknar av skulpturerna på plats. Ett sociokulturellt och demokratiskt perspektiv används för att belysa barnen möte med konsten där leken tar stor plats. Deras egna tolkningar och samspelet med konsten undersöks med hjälp av partiell etnografi där deltagande  pedagoger möter konsten, tolkar den, samspelar med den, kopplar den till sin egen verklighet och dessutom engagerar sig i konsten.This article focuses on pre-school children and their meeting with public art in the form of sculptures. Together with their teacher they interact with the artworks, with each other, and they do their own interpretation at site by making drawings of the sculptures. The playful meeting between children and public art is described from a sociocultural and democratic perspective. The children’s own interpretations and interactions with the art are investigated using ethnographic method through participant observation. The result shows that pre-school children with the assistance of a proficient teacher meet the art, interpret it, interact with it, and connect it to their every-day lives, besides truly engaging in the artprocess.

TH(AGYLLGHINLHHLAHL(Aib)HHIL-NH2), a histidine-rich, cell-penetrating peptide with acid-activated pH response, designed and synthesized by our group, can effectively target tumor tissues with an acidic extracellular environment. Since the protonating effect of histidine plays a critical role in the acid-activated, cell-penetrating ability of TH, we designed a series of new histidine substituents by introducing electron donating groups (Ethyl, Isopropyl, Butyl) to the C-2 position of histidine. This resulted in an enhanced pH-response and improved the application of TH in tumor-targeted delivery systems. The substituents were further utilized to form the corresponding TH analogs (Ethyl-TH, Isopropyl-TH and Butyl-TH), making them easier to protonate for positive charge in acidic tumor microenvironments. The pH-dependent cellular uptake efficiencies of new TH analogs were further evaluated using flow cytometry and confocal laser scanning microscopy, demonstrating that ethyl-TH and butyl-TH had an optimal pH-response in an acidic environment. Importantly, the new TH analogs exhibited relatively lower toxicity than TH. In addition, these new TH analogs were linked to the antitumor drug camptothecin (CPT), while butyl-TH modified conjugate presented a remarkably stronger pH-dependent cytotoxicity to cancer cells than TH and the other conjugates. In short, our work opens a new avenue for the development of improved acid-activated, cell-penetrating peptides as efficient anticancer drug delivery vectors.
Gamebird responses to anthropogenic forest fragmentation and degradation in a southern Amazonian landscape
Authors: Michalski Fernanda , Peres Carlos A.
Published: June 2017

Although large-bodied tropical forest birds are impacted by both habitat loss and fragmentation, their patterns of habitat occupancy will also depend on the degree of forest habitat disturbance, which may interact synergistically or additively with fragmentation effects. Here, we examine the effects of forest patch and landscape metrics, and levels of forest disturbance on the patterns of persistence of six gamebird taxa in the southern Brazilian Amazon. We use both interview data conducted with long-term residents and/or landowners from 129 remnant forest patches and 15 continuous forest sites and line-transect census data from a subset of 21 forest patches and two continuous forests. Forest patch area was the strongest predictor of species persistence, explaining as much as 46% of the overall variation in gamebird species richness. Logistic regression models showed that anthropogenic disturbance—including surface wildfires, selective logging and hunting pressure—had a variety of effects on species persistence. Most large-bodied gamebird species were sensitive to forest fragmentation, occupying primarily large, high-quality forest patches in higher abundances, and were typically absent from patches <100 ha. Our findings highlight the importance of large (>10,000 ha), relatively undisturbed forest patches to both maximize persistence and maintain baseline abundances of large neotropical forest birds.
EMT: Present and future in clinical oncology
Authors: Santamaria Patricia G. , Moreno‐Bueno Gema , Portillo Francisco , Cano Amparo
Published: June 2017

Epithelial/mesenchymal transition (EMT) has emerged as a key regulator of metastasis by facilitating tumor cell invasion and dissemination to distant organs. Recent evidences support that the reverse mesenchymal/epithelial transition (MET) is required for metastatic outgrowth; moreover, the existence of hybrid epithelial/mesenchymal (E/M) phenotypes is increasingly being reported in different tumor contexts. The accumulated data strongly support that plasticity between epithelial and mesenchymal states underlies the dissemination and metastatic potential of carcinoma cells. However, the translation into the clinics of EMT and epithelial plasticity processes presents enormous challenges and still remains a controversial issue. In this review, we will evaluate current evidences for translational applicability of EMT and depict an overview of the most recent EMT in vivo models, EMT marker analyses in human samples as well as potential EMT therapeutic approaches and ongoing clinical trials. We foresee that standardized analyses of EMT markers in solid and liquid tumor biopsies in addition to innovative tools targeting the E/M states will become promising strategies for future translation to the clinical setting.
