Ground beetles (Coleoptera, Carabidae) in fumarole fields of Kunashir Island, Kuril Archipelago, Russia
Authors: Makarov Kirill Vladimirovich , Sundukov Yurii Nikolaevich , Matalin Andrey Vladimirovich
Published: February 2021

Five species of ground beetles are permanent inhabitants of the fumarola fields on Kunashir Island: Cicindela (Cicindela) sachalinensis A. Morawitz, 1862; Cylindera (Eugrapha) elisae (Motschulsky, 1859); Bembidion (Ocydromus) dolorosum (Motschulsky, 1860); B. (Peryphanes) sanatum Bates, 1883, and Poecilus (Poecilus) samurai (Lutshnik, 1916). These species respond differently to extreme conditions. In some species, the size is decreased (C. elisae, B. dolorosum), but is increased in P. samurai; in B. dolorosum, the pigmentation is decreased, while increased in others (C. sachalinensis, C. elisae, P. samurai). The degree of these variations depends neither on taxonomic relations nor the adaptation time. The areas of moderate thermal activity of Kunashir volcanoes could have served as refugia during the colder climatic periods. Based on data on the variability and barcoding of B. dolorosum, the following new synonymy is established: Bembidion (Ocydromus) dolorosum (Motschulsky, 1860) = Bembidion (Ocydromus) negrei Habu, 1958, syn. nov. = Bembidion (Peryphus) kuznetsovi Lafer, 2002, syn. nov.

The phylogenetic relationships among seven Callosciurus species from the Indochina Peninsula, including the C. honkhoaiensis which is endemic to Hon Khoai Island, were studied using complete mitochondrial cytochrome b gene sequences (1140 bases). We primarily focused on the phylogenetic position of C. pygerythrus, which is distributed in the western part of the peninsula. We identified two main lineages: 1) C. caniceps, C. honkhoaiensis, C. inornatus, C. phayrei and C. pygerythrus, and 2) C. erythraeus and C. finlaysonii. Estimated divergence time between the two lineages was at the junction of the Zanclean and Piacenzian in the Pliocene. Within the first linage, the divergence time of sub-lineages corresponded to the Pliocene-Pleistocene boundary, although phylogenetic relationships were unclear. These two divergence times estimated in the present study correspond to episodes of global cooling, suggesting that climate may have contributed to the divergence of these Callosciurus squirrels.

The solid mechanics problem on the packaging and subsequent pneumatic deployment of large-sized shells is relevant due to the need to operate such structures in hard-to-reach places. In particular, such a place is outer space. The paper considers the elastic cylindrical shell deployment from a packed state by internal pressure in a finite time interval. The packaged shell consists of two rectangular plates joined by ideal (with no bending resistance) joint-hinges arranged at the edges. Both static and dynamic problems are considered. Solutions are obtained on the basis of a geometrically nonlinear model of an elastic body using the ANSYS engineering package. It is shown that the pneumatic loading of an elastic structure is accompanied by its oscillations with increasing frequency and the amplitude decreasing in time. The period of shell oscillations is found to be dependent on the operating loading pressure and independent of the pressure supply rate, and it almost equals the period of oscillations of the statically loaded shell under the same pressure. The wide range variation in the natural oscillation frequencies of the structure during pneumatic deployment, which is revealed in the study, is of great importance since it makes possible to predict resonant modes accompanying the process. The results of the study will be used in problems of mechanics related to the pneumatic deployment of shell structures (for example, telescope reflectors, antennas, etc.) in space.

Low-noise fans are widely used in the sphere of human life for sanitary and technological purposes. Creation of low-noise fans is currently an advanced scientific and technical area. In some fields of their application, reduced vibrations and noises are of paramount importance not only in terms of sanitation and health, but also from a scientific point of view. This work presents a comparison of the quality of low-noise fan development depending on the selected resistance type. The efficiency of the damping of mechanical system (a low-noise fan) vibrations according to the type of resistance moment used is confirmed analytically and practically. Nowadays, a number of fan types implemented in hundreds of designs have been developed and are in service. In this work, the whole variety of the produced nomenclature of low-noise fans is reduced to two basic types – axial and radial. The paper reports that to ensure minimum noise in the operating mode of the low-noise fans presented in the work, a wideband vibration damper is needed as a required functional unit, and the walls of the fan housing should be sandwich-like with layers made of sound absorbing, sound insulating, and vibration damping materials.

The paper presents the results of the mathematical modeling of a supersonic twin jet interaction with an obstacle for the Mach number of 4.5 specified at the nozzle exit. Mathematical formulation of the problem includes a system of Favre-averaged Navier-Stokes equations and SST turbulence model for a viscous compressible ideal gas. The calculations are carried out using the free software OpenFOAM Extended with the Godunov method employed. The effect of the distance between nozzles on the shock-wave structure of the gas flow and on the force action of the plumes on the obstacle is studied. The distance between the nozzles varied in the range of 0.1−4. It is found that with an increase in the distance from 0.1 to 0.5, the flow structure is significantly rearranged, and two pressure maxima arise, which increase in comparison to the distance of 0.2. A decrease in pressure on the obstacle is observed at the distance over 1.0. For a distance of 4, two pressure maxima occur on the axis of each jet, while the force action of each jet is half as high as the resultant jet force action for a distance of 0.1. The transition from a stationary regime to a self-oscillating one is observed when the distance exceeds the value of 1.5.
The Supervised Teaching Practice and the Preservice Teachers’ Intended and Performed Actions in a Chemistry Class
Authors: Assai Natany Dayani de Souza , Arruda Sergio De Mello , Broietti Fabiele Cristiane Dias
Published: February 2021

Background: Giving up prescriptive views on the teacher’s action in the classroom is necessary for a better understanding of the teaching work. We are also faced with the absence of works that address teaching action under an investigative bias in initial teacher education. Objectives:  identify and categorise the actions intended and performed by preservice teachers in a chemistry class, looking for implications for teacher education. Design: the study fits into a qualitative-interpretative research perspective. Setting and Participants: The data analysed comes from the monitoring of chemistry teaching degree students in the Supervised Teaching Practice discipline and their teaching in a 9th-grade class in a public school. Data collection and analysis: data collection took place through different instruments: lesson plans and audio and video recordings of the classes, that enabled interpretations based on the assumptions of the textual discursive analysis. Results: for the actions intended, a small set of five actions was identified (question, write, explain, organise, identify). The actions carried out, on the other hand, include a larger set of 13 actions and, mainly, microactions, made possible by the actions intended. There is a convergence between the actions initially planned and development in the departments, and the emergence of specific actions in the context of the Supervised Practice. Conclusions: Such results indicate the importance of categorising the actions of the undergraduate students in a chemistry class, resulting in a set of actions not yet identified in other studies, and discussing the importance of the Teaching Practice in the constitution of elements of the teaching work.

Teaching Philosophy Statement and Ideological Becoming
Authors: Vásquez-Miranda Alba Eugenia
Published: February 2021

The writing of a teaching philosophy statement can be interpreted as a dynamic component in the development of the teacher’s system of ideas, their ideological self. In this article of reflection, I examine the exercise of reflection and personal growth that the development of a personal educational philosophy promotes according to some writing guidelines available. Through a documentary method, I argue the assumptions of the beliefs in question to interpret them under bakhtinian concepts of heteroglossia and ideological becoming. The examination of heteroglossia in the text of a TPS increases the awareness of individual teaching activity connected to broader social, cultural, and political practices built through writing. These considerations are intended to connect the activities of educators with the possibility of more democratic societies.

Published: February 2021

Various wide-area Internet of Things services have been deployed. In most of these IoT services, a significant number of tiny data blocks are transferred across wide-area networks. Therefore, the transfer mechanisms should be simplified. One promising candidate for use as a transfer mechanism is MQ Telemetry Transport (MQTT). In this paper, an architecture for a distributed MQTT broker, referred to as a virtual ring approach, is proposed. This architecture complies with the IoT Data Exchange Platform, as discussed in ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 41. The operations of this distributed broker architecture using a virtual ring network for real-time communication is also described, along with the superiority of the architecture based on a performance analysis using queuing models

Authors: Kartikeswar Gouda A. P. , Pandya Dhyey I. , Madabhushi Siddharth , Joshi Vivek M. , Kadam Sandeep
Published: February 2021

Background: Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) predisposes the mother for chorioamnionitis, endometritis, bacteremia and neonate to preterm delivery related complication. There is often dilemma regarding the management of PPROM in mothers with gestational age (GA) <34 weeks.Methods: A retrospective cohort study conducted in a tertiary care hospital over two year period. Neonates delivered before 34 weeks were enrolled and categorized into active management (AM) and expectant management (EM) group. Associated risk factors, duration of PPROM and latency period, Neonatal outcomes like sepsis, morbidity, duration of respiratory support, duration of NICU stay compared between groups.Results: Out of total 197 cases, AM group had 91 babies. Active management resulted in earlier delivery [mean GA (SD): 30.88(1.8) VS 31(2.1) weeks], higher number of caesarian section (76.9% versus 53.8%), lesser birth weight {1233.6 (±282.9) versus 1453.39 (±380.6) gm} and more ELBW babies (23.1% versus 7.5%). EM resulted in significantly higher antenatal steroid cover (73.6% in AM versus 89.6% in EM) and lesser need of surfactant for RDS [42.9% versus 28.3%]. Significant difference was found for NICU stay days {mean (SD): 25.46 (16.8) versus 20.94 (17.5)}. No difference found between respiratory support days [median (IQR) 2 (0, 6) versus 2 (0, 7)]. No significant differences found in incidence of maternal chorioamnionitis, NEC, sepsis, BPD and ROP. Early delivery resulted in higher mortality though that was statistically not significant.Conclusions: Gestational age at delivery is more important predictor of neonatal outcome then PPROM in early preterm.

Published: February 2021

Common variable immunodeficiency disorder (CVID) is the commonest type of primary immunodeficiency disorders (PIDs) characterized by hypogammaglobulinemia, defective specific antibody production and increased susceptibility of recurrent infections. Autoimmunity, neoplasm and lymphoproliferative disorders are usually associated with CVID. In most cases, the cause is unknown, but multiple gene mutations (10%) may be associated with CVID. Here, we report an eight years old girl with CVID presented with recurrent infections, growth failure, generalized lymphadenopathy and hepatosplenomegaly. Chest examination and radiological findings of this girl were consistent with bronchiectasis. Lack of awareness among health care providers is the reason for delayed diagnosis of several years for this girl. Therefore, it is essential to raise awareness regarding PID patients among the physicians to improve the quality of life.

Published: February 2021

Autoimmune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is one of the best characterized autoimmune diseases which is classified into primary (idiopathic) and secondary forms. A high index of suspicion is warranted for the diagnosis of secondary ITP. There is limited data on association of ITP with Psoriasis. We herein describe a 11 years old girl who presented with a rare association of ITP and Psoriasis who responded to oral steroids.
Utility of immature platelet fraction to predict platelet recovery in dengue patients having thrombocytopenia
Authors: Agarwal Megha , Bansal Pradeep Kumar , Yadav M. L.
Published: February 2021

Background: Dengue is one of the most common viral and probably also the most common important arbovirus infections in the world. Thrombocytopenia in patients with dengue may cause a steep fall in platelet count, warrant for platelet transfusion. However, unnecessary transfusions are best avoided due to heightened risk from alloimmunization, immunosuppression, transmission of infectious diseases and graft-vs.-host disease. This brings us to the issue of how we can reliably predict the rise in the platelet count. IPF count holds great promise of being this predictor. The aim of this study was to establish the relationship between IPF and increase in platelet count in patients with dengue who suffer from thrombocytopenia.Methods: This is a hospital based observational descriptive study done in November 2017 to August 2019 on all the dengue patients who were positive for NS1 antigen or IgM antibody or both and treated at Mahatma Gandhi Medical College and Hospital, Jaipur. The values of platelet and IPF were retrieved for day 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th day of admission. Association between values of IPF and significant clinical change in platelet values during the subsequent 48 hrs is done. A sensitivity analysis was carried out to ascertain the cut-off of IPF on the corresponding days which yielded increase in platelet values of over 20,000 in the subsequent 48 hrs.  Results: There is statistically significant (P<0.01) improvement in platelet values within 48 hrs when the IPF is more than 6.1%.Conclusions: IPF is an additional parameter to predict platelet recovery, so that prophylactic platelet transfusion can be deferred and also the hazards associated with it.

Published: February 2021

Background: A significant imbalance in access to safe blood is seen between the developing and developed countries. Donor selection has a pivotal role in preventing transfusion related complications and provide safety to the recipients. In this study, we aimed to find out rate and causes of blood donor rejection in our hospital.  Methods: A retrospective study conducted in a tertiary care hospital involving both the voluntary and replacement donors during the period September 2017 to December 2018. We included all those donors who were considered unfit for blood donation. All those who came for blood donation at our hospital were asked to fill up an enrolment form for a blood donor. A general and systemic examination were done. We calculated the rejection rate, listed the reasons for donor rejection, and analyzed the data.Results: Among 150 rejected blood donors, most were males [129 (86%)], and the rest were females [21 (14%)]. The rejection rate in our study was 3.29%. We found that the rejection rate of donors was different among voluntary and replacement donors. It showed that the most common reason for the temporary rejection of blood donation was low hemoglobin level, followed by abnormal blood pressure.  Conclusions: A vast majority of donors were rejected temporarily [132 (88%)], while the rest of them were rejected permanently [18 (12%)]. Low Hb in females and abnormal blood pressure in males were the commonest causes of blood donor rejection. Many factors affect the similarities and variations between the most typical causes of blood donor rejection, such as geographical area, cultural, socio-economic, and educational factors.

Pulmonary involvement in Henoch‐Schonlein purpura (HSP) although rare is an important treatable cause of hospital admission in patients. Its diagnosis is difficult due to the vague symptoms and non-specific radiographic findings. We present one such case of a known case of HSP presenting with pulmonary involvement and treated successfully with steroids and immunosuppressant medications after ruling out all other causes. This particular case could also have an additional component of methotrexate induced lung involvement. Overall it is an interesting case with some much needed learning points.

Authors: Sharma Vikram , Chandak Vivek
Published: February 2021

Background: Lateral epicondylitis is a common musculoskeletal disorder for which an effective treatment strategy remains unknown. Aim of the study was to examine whether a single injection of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with needling is more effective than needling with placebo in reducing pain in adults with lateral epicondylitis. Study design used was randomized controlled trial.    

Methods: A total of 66 patients with chronic lateral epicondylitis were randomized (1:1) to receive either a blinded injection of PRP (group A) or saline (placebo) group B. The primary end point was a change in pain using the VAS and patient-rated tennis elbow evaluation (PRTEE) questionnaire. The secondary outcome being improvement in function (PRTEE scores).

Results: The VAS score and PRTEE score improved significantly in both the groups at all 3 follow-up examinations. Group A had significantly better results than the group B.

Conclusions: PRP injection are safe and effective management strategy for lateral epicondylitis
Functional and radiological outcome of osteosynthesis using proximal femoral nail antirotation II system in intertrochanteric femoral fractures
Authors: Mir Wajahat Ahmad , Rather Mohmad Nawaz , Rashid Rasiq
Published: February 2021

Background: Intertrochanteric fractures are relatively common injuries in adults and a common source of morbidity and mortality among the elderly. Incidence of fractures is increasing because the general life expectancy of the population has increased significantly during the past few decades. Stable fixation and early mobilization is needed in these fractures to reduce the morbidity and mortality. Extra-medullary implants are biomechanically inferior in these cases. The proximal femoral nail antirotation-II (PFNA-II) is an intra-medullary nail system designed for such fractures. The purpose of this study was to assess the results and complications of PFNA-II in intertrochanteric femur fractures.

Methods: After seeking approval from institutional Ethical committee, this study was conducted on 30 patients attending our emergency department with intertrochanteric femur fractures at SKIMS Medical College Hospital Bemina, Srinagar from February 2018 to June 2019. The patients were treated with proximal femoral nail antirotation-II. Follow up was done at 2, 6, 12 and 24 weeks.  The functional outcome was assessed at 6 months follow up using the Harris Hip Score.

Results: Based on the Harris hip score, 18 (60%) patients had excellent results, 10 (33%) had good results and 2 (7%) had Fair results. None of the patients had poor result. Average time to union was 12.27 weeks.

Conclusions: This study found the PFNA-II to be a versatile, easy to use and dependable implant for stable as well as unstable intertrochanteric fractures. PFNA II is distinct advance over the previous methods of treatment, though it has an initial learning curve.

Published: February 2021

Perioperative vision loss (POVL) is a catastrophic complication of spine surgery and several risk factors are identified. As spine fusion surgery is rising in number, POVL incidence is increasing. Preventive strategies can decrease the risk of this complication. Prognosis depends on the level of occlusion and how quickly oxygen supply can be restored to retina. We present a 65-year-old female patient with multiple cardiovascular risk factors that who underwent lumbar fusion. Upon waking up from anesthesia, the patient reported total loss of vision in her left eye. An occlusion of the central retinal artery due to a probable embolic cause was diagnosed and the patient promptly started treatment with anti-aggregation therapy and hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) with good results. The combination of HBOT with anti-aggregation therapy may have had a synergistic effect contributing to the good outcome presented in this case and may be a good option for the treatment of this patients.

Fibrous dysplasia is a developmental anomaly of bone formation that may exist in monostotic or polyostotic form. Monostotic fibrous dysplasia of fibula is a rare case with unusual site and most common sites being facial bones, ribs, proximal femur and tibia. We report a case of 10-year-old boy attended our hospital with occasional pain in left leg while having strenuous activity. On clinical examination there was no obvious swelling with normal appearing skin. Radiographic examination revealed lesion with both radiopaque and radiolucent features showing a “ground-glass” appearing lesion in proximal one third of fibula. Differential diagnosis considered are simple bone cyst, non-ossifying fibroma, osteo-fibrous dysplasia, adamantinoma. As a definitive treatment curettage was done and biopsy sent for histopathological examination, which confirmed he diagnosis. Follow up after 10 months shows normal bone growth as evidenced radiologically and patient is asymptomatic. Case in detail and recent review of literature has been discussed. From our case, we have shown that it is possible to treat uncomplicated fibrous dysplasia with minimally invasive approach of simple curettage. Patient is symptomatically relieved within 2 months without any complications.
De metáforas incomprendidas a comprensiones inusuales
Authors: Cuevas Nicolas , Gómez Catalina
Published: February 2021

El tema del artículo es la interpretación de expresiones metafóricas. Su propósito es comparar dos modelos sobre cómo funciona la interpretación de expresiones metafóricas, con el fin de concluir cuál de ellos es más fructífero en la comprensión del fenómeno de la interpretación de este tipo de expresiones. El criterio de comparación de ambas teorías es el enfoque semántico utilizado en su construcción. Los modelos que trabajaremos son el de la interpretación radical propuesta por Donald Davidson y el de la elaboración global propuesto por Christina Cacciari y Chiara Levorato. El primero está construido desde un enfoque holista del significado. En cambio, el segundo se basa en un enfoque atomista. Defenderemos que el modelo de la interpretación radical es más fuerte teóricamente y puede llegar a ser más fructífero en la comprensión de expresiones metafóricas.

Norwid’s works in Ludwik Gocel’s collection
Authors: Serwański Jacek
Published: February 2021

Ludwik Gocel (1889-1966) was an expert on the November Uprising and the creator of a large historical collection documenting this national liberation uprising. He was also interested in the biography of Cyprian Norwid and the reception of the poet’s work, some of which were part of his collection. Based, inter alia, on the materials from Gocel’s archive and his legacy, and the content of his letter of December 1957, this sketch discusses a fragment of the history of Norwid’s autograph of the poem Italiam!Italiam! The sketch outlines the circumstances in which Gocel obtained the poem for his collection in 1949, which after a few years, in 1957, he handed over to Fawley Court in England, where it supplemented the collection of Father Józef Jarzębowski, a Marian, expert on Norwid and collector of national memorabilia. The text also takes into account an important aspect of the cooperation between the two bibliophiles Gocel and Jarzębowski, owing to which Norwid’s manuscript has been preserved and today it is exhibited in the Museum in Licheń Stary. In addition, the article presents several other manifestations of Gocel’s interest in Norwid.
Syberie by Norwid
Authors: Woźniewska-Działak Magdalena
Published: February 2021

The article is an interpretation of Norwid’s poem entitled Syberie, one of the works in the Vade-mecum series. Referring to the literature of the subject (inter alia, Zofia Trojanowiczowa, Włodzimierz Toruń), the author puts forward the thesis that the poem is a lyrical masterpiece, maximally condensing the extensive content related to Siberia and the exiles, which is a major subject of 19th-century Polish literature. Norwid’s poem, set in author’s contexts and in the contexts of the epoch, reveals its depth and possibilities of poetic synthesis. In the article, the author proves the “participation” of the work in the three great dialogues of that time provoked by the subject of Siberia.
Polish “imaginary”: Norwid’s reading of Anhelli
Authors: Stanisz Marek
Published: February 2021

The aim of the article is to answer the question how Cyprian Norwid understood Juliusz Słowacki’s poem entitled Anhelli (1838). Norwid’s interpretation of Anhelli, which was put forward in his lectures O Juliuszu Słowackim (1961), was significantly different from the previous ones. Before Norwid, the critics of Anhelli admired its aesthetic layer and appreciated the documentary motifs, but could not make sense of its extremely pessimistic message. Norwid, however, interpreted Anhelli as an allegorical reflection of what Charles Taylor would have called the Polish social imaginary. Emphasising the role of the metaphorical meaning of a few motifs in the world presented (especially the one of Siberia as the „negative pole” of the Polish civilisation and the picture of characters as supporters of particular ethical views), Norwid interpreted Słowacki’s poem as an allegory of a grave crisis of the Polish collective consciousness as well as a picture of the decay of the national community. In this way, Norwid’s reflection on Anhelli gave him the opportunity to criticise the qualities of the 19th-century Polish culture and the mentality of the then emigrants.
Friends of Norwid from Maria de Bonneval’s album
Authors: Cedro Adam
Published: February 2021

The article offers a general description of the contents of a 19th century photo album belonging to Maria de Bonneval née Gerlicz, the niece of Konstancja Górska. Along with the history of photography and CdV photos, which revolutionised the market and customs at that time, the figure of the owner of the album is presented – with the use of previously unknown materials. Norwid had been guest to her Parisian house for several decades, almost as a household member. It turns out that in this 200-photograph album currently owned by the Bloch Family Foundation, more than 70 people were known to Norwid. We have thus the opportunity to see the images of many of them for the first time, while the album can be treated as a document belonging to Norwid himself.
On the Trichoptera of Italy with delineation of incipient sibling species
Authors: Oláh János , Vinçon Gilles , Coppa Gennaro
Published: February 2021

Lumpers, focussing between gross and molecular morphologies and neglecting fine phenomics, highly underestimate biodiversity. The outdated lumper’s attitude fixed in the Distribution Atlas of European Trichoptera (Neu et al. 2018) is revisited and some theoretical background of why and how to delineate phylogenetic-retigenetic incipient species is outlined very briefly. We expose the adverse effect of lumpers in order to improve by fine phenomics the detection of the fine structure of the local genetic resources, the most valuable and most specific living components, the endemics of the particular ecosystems. In the Italian caddisfly fauna we have recorded, treated or revised the species complex status of Plectrocnemia geniculata, Tinodes dives, Diplectrona atra, Rhyacophila praemorsa, R. pubescens, R. vulgaris, Drusus graecus, D. discolor D. muelleri, D. flavipennis, D. mixtus, D. spelaeus, D. alpinus, D. nebulicola, Limnephilus stigma. Raised the subspecies status to phylogenetic-retigenetic incipient species rank of Plectrocnemia calabrica Malicky, 1971 stat. nov., Tinodes cantabricus Botosaneanau & Gonzalez, 2001 stat. restit., stat. nov., Tinodes consiglioi Botosaneanu, 1980 stat. nov.

Calculation of aberration coefficients for a cylindrical mirror
Authors:   Institute for Analytical Instrumentation of RAS,  Saint Petersburg, Russia, Shevchenko S. I.
Published: February 2021

Angular аberration coefficients for a cylindrical mirror up to the fourth order in the vicinity of the azimuthal angle φ0 = 0 and in the vicinity of an arbitrary angle ϑ0 value are analytically obtained. A method is developed for calculating aberration coefficients of arbitrary order and in the vicinity of an arbitrary point based on the results of calculating several trajectories. Analytical and numerical methods for calculating aberration coefficients up to the fourth order are productive in the vicinity of the point (φ0 = 0, ϑ0) that coincide with high accuracy.

RESUMO: Este trabalho objetiva caracterizar acusticamente as vogais médias pretônicas orais /e/ e /o/ faladas na área rural de Cametá (PA). O corpus da pesquisa é constituído por 18 participantes-colaboradores, estratificados por sexo, faixa etária e escolaridade, os quais participaram de um teste de imagens. Os dados foram submetidos a um tratamento composto por 5 etapas: segmentação em 6 níveis no programa PRAAT (enunciado, lexical, vocábulo alvo, sílaba, fonológico e fonético); isolamento dos vocábulos alvo em arquivo individuais; organização dos dados em uma planilha Excel; tomadas de medidas acústicas; cálculos da média e desvio padrão dos valores em Hz de F1 e F2. Os resultados mostraram alto grau de variação entre as variantes: [i] e [e] -participantes-colaboradores femininos; [u] e [o] - velhos e jovens; e as baixas [E] e [O] apresentaram-se distanciadas das variantes altas e médias. Assim, os dados acústicos apontam para o processo de manutenção das vogais pretônicas.

 
Challenges in English for Specific Purposes: Case-Study of Economics Students
Authors: Benchennane Djamila djam , Stambouli Mustapha
Published: February 2021

This research work is to investigate the status of English for Specific Purposes course on first year Master students of Economics in their development of English for Specific Purposes. It focuses on one research instrument for data collection which is: classroom observation. The results revealed that teachers of English are not ESP teachers; therefore, they need to collaborate more with subject specialists to improve their own levels and to learn modern methods of teaching, they should also proceed to Needs analysis as far as the learners are concerned. Hence some recommendations and tips are provided so as to boost the students’ learning process.

Zambia Digital Rights Landscape Report
Authors: Phiri Sam
Published: February 2021

This report introduces findings from ten digital rights landscape country reports on Zambia. They analyse how the openings and closings of online civic space affect citizens’ digital rights. They show that: (1) when civic space closes offline citizens often respond by opening civic space online; (2) when civic space opens online governments often take measures to close online space; and (3) the resulting reduction in digital rights makes it impossible to achieve the kind of inclusive governance defined in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Dairy cattle welfare and other aspects of sustainability
Authors:   University of Cambridge, UK, Broom Donald M.
Published: February 2021

Welfare and other aspects of sustainability are becoming increasingly important in consumer purchasing decisions. This chapter introduces a number of key welfare issues affecting the dairy industry that need system change, including lameness, mastitis and aspects of calf management. Other major topics concerning the sustainability of dairy production are: minimising grain use, feeding high protein leaves of shrubs and trees, reducing greenhouse gas emissions such as by changing diet to reduce methane output, and improving labelling and traceability.

Developments in housing of cattle to promote health and welfare
Authors:   University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA, Cook Nigel B.
Published: February 2021

While housing systems have served to provide shelter and protection from predation, they have also been associated with negative effects on cow health and welfare. Efforts in the dairy sector have had significant impact on transition cow housing, feeding and resting behaviors, and protection from climate extremes. While consumers of dairy products continue to demand that cows graze pasture, cows appear to value the benefits of housing. Well-designed freestall housing, with comfortable deep bedded stalls, sized to the animals using them, in pens that promote feed access for all of the cows to eat simultaneously, within barns designed to protect the cows from extremes of climate, have proven that we can house cattle successfully. The cow continues to live within a complex hierarchical social system within these buildings, and it is incumbent on our designs to allow cows to exhibit a wide range of natural behaviors to enhance their well-being.
Advances in understanding behavioral needs and improving the welfare of calves and heifers
Authors:   University of Florida, USA, Miller-Cushon Emily , Van Os Jennifer ,   University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA
Published: February 2021

Management factors affecting dairy calves have broad impacts on behavioral development and implications for long-term welfare, and research in this area is increasingly focused on understanding the behavioral needs of the calf, to refine management and improve understanding of welfare. In this chapter, we summarize recent research addressing behavioral needs of pre-weaned calves and post-weaned heifers, encompassing aspects of social interactions and feeding, rest and comfort, and opportunities for other behavioral expression. In general, evidence suggests welfare and performance benefits of accommodating more natural behavioral expression, including social contact, higher milk intakes fed via a teat, dietary variety, and space and resources to accommodate preferred activities, such as grooming and play. Throughout these sections, consequences of restricting these behaviors includes development of abnormal oral behaviors. Emerging themes of this area of research include consideration of individual differences and implications and approaches to accommodate broader behavioral expression through increasing environmental complexity.
Optimizing Omnibus Law in Indonesia: A Legal Enquiry on the Use of Artificial Intelligence for Legislative Drafting
Authors: Priambudi Zaki , Papuani Namira Hilda , Iskandar Ramdhan Prawira Mulya
Published: February 2021

Omnibus law is often regarded as a practical solution to harmonize and synchronize statutory regulations. In practice, the application of this model tends to be pragmatic and less democratic. This paper aims to analyze the essential considerations for selecting the omnibus law model in Indonesia, following its implementation challenges and the relevance of using Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the legislation. By combining doctrinal and socio-legal research methods, this paper answers the legal enquiry for optimizing AI through omnibus law model legislation. The results of this study indicate that AI cannot immediately replace the role of the legislative institution but it merely acts as a "tool" and not as a "determinant" in the legislative process. In this context, there are two AI features that can assist legislative bodies in designing the omnibus law model; they are document review as a construction scanner for legislation and predictive analytics as a prediction system. Both features can help legislative bodies optimize the omnibus law model, which tends to have a high complexity level. As a follow-up, the government should establish a special institution to optimizing the AI-based legislation.
