Using side-point method for increasing the accuracy of surveying network at monitoring engineering structures
Authors: Kanashin N.V.
Published: December 2020

Geodetic monitoring buildings and structures is a complex and critical task nowadays, that requires high accuracy of measurements. Various methods are used to obtain it when working on various structures. The author describes the technology of using the side-point method to increase the accuracy of creating a surveying network when monitoring stadiums for the World Cup 2018. It is shown that the application of the aforementioned method together with the well-known one of dead distances measuring with total station does not significantly increase the complexity of the work, but provides high measurement precision even under adverse observation conditions. The features of adjusting such measurements are set out in the article. It is also experimentally established that using the side-points method enables increasing the accuracy of measurements by 1,5–2 times when constructing polygonometric traverses. The article may be useful for at specialists monitoring and geodetic control of structure deformation.

Authors: Tararin A.M. , Belyaev V.L.
Published: December 2020

In the view of the sections of the state information system for ensuring urban planning activities, the place is shown and the role in regulating the development of territories is revealed. The composition of spatial data contained in various types and sections of urban planning documentation is analyzed. A review of world practice has shown that many of the analyzed spatial data are included in national spatial data infrastructures, which indicates their high level of signifi cance. Consideration of the issues of updating graphic documents by maintaining duty plans of urban planning information using GIS technologies revealed the need to consolidate secondary (updated) documents at the legislative level. An analysis of the requirements for spatial data in the fi eld of urban planning and the real estate cadastre showed the need for their refi nement in terms of clarifying the requirements for the accuracy of describing the objects of urban planning activities and unifying the coordinate systems used. Proposals are given for the establishment of uniform requirements for methods for determining the coordinates of spatial objects and the rules for determining the permissible discrepancy, as well as requirements for the accuracy of determining the coordinates of the characteristic points of the boundaries of objects of urban planning activities.

Leo Tolstoy’s Faith: The Equivalence of State of Mind and Content
Authors:   Institute of Philosophy and Law, Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Science (Ekaterinburg, Russia), Stepanova Elena
Published: December 2020

This article discusses Tolstoy’s faith in the unity of its two aspects: as the state of mind of its carrier and in terms of its content and the life principles that flow from it. It is shown that at the same time and in the same respect Tolstoy was the bearer of the faith and its investigator; therefore, its adequate interpretation is possible only if the principles established by him for himself are taken into account instead of an abstract and outward interpretation of what faith should be. The article considers, first, Tolstoy’s explanation of faith in various works, letters, diaries, and the like during the last thirty years of his life; and second, his distinctive expressions of faith along with discussions of it. The article demonstrates the equivalence of Tolstoy’s state of mind and the content of his faith, as well as its purely individual character. The study concludes with a discussion of the significance of Tolstoy’s understanding of faith for us today.

Posicionamiento de la lectura como habilidad transversal en planes de estudio para docentes de I y II ciclos en Costa Rica
Authors: Castro-Solano Rosemary
Published: December 2020

El artículo emana de la investigación realizada en el nodo Costa Rica de la Red para la Lectoescritura Inicial de Centroamérica y el Caribe (RedLEI) y en concreto la publicación busca responder si la secuencia didáctica de los planes de estudio aborda la lectura de las personas docentes en formación como habilidad transversal o si se limita a su abordaje instrumental como materia de enseñanza y en bloques curriculares aislados. Para ello, se realizó un mapeo de las carreras activas de Educación para I y II Ciclos y se analizaron sus planes de estudio por medio de la categorización de sus materias en cuatro dimensiones: Español (general), Lectoescritura, Didáctica de la Lengua y Literatura Infantil para analizar la cantidad de cursos en cada una, su creditaje y la secuencia didáctica según su ubicación en la malla curricular como caracterización cuantitativa de cómo los planes de estudio abordan la destreza a nivel de titulación inicial. Los resultados obtenidos para los 19 planes de estudio analizados permiten concluir que la mayoría (n=11) de planes de estudio de titulación inicial docente para I y II ciclos centran su atención en las didácticas – ya sea de lectoescritura, de lengua o ambas – sin preparar previamente a la persona docente en formación de destrezas lingüísticas generales y/o promover sus propios hábitos de lectura extensiva por medio de acciones formativas específicas en cultura lectora a nivel de plan de estudios, lo cual ciertamente socava la aspiración país de formar nuevas generaciones de docentes lectoras y lectores.

La gestión integrada del riesgo de desastres (GIRD), asociada al cambio climático (CC), está estrechamente vinculada con el sector educación. Por su importancia, se analizaron los programas de Ciencias pertenecientes al I y II ciclos del año 2016 del Ministerio de Educación Pública de Costa Rica. El objetivo fue evaluar los elementos curriculares de los contenidos, las metodologías y los recursos didácticos en lo referente a la GIRD asociada al CC (adaptación y mitigación). Dentro de los hallazgos importantes, se resalta que en los programas se reflejan contextos ambientales variados y en diferentes escalas geográficas (local, nacional y global); asimismo, se alude a los conceptos de prevención, riesgos socioambientales, CC, calentamiento global, fenómenos meteorológicos, recursos hídricos y aguas subterráneas, entre otros. La presencia vinculada de estos elementos en los planes denota su actualización con respecto a las principalescorrientes teóricas de la GIRD y el CC que se han propuesto y que guían el corpus científico tanto a nivel nacional como mundial. Otros elementos de calidad presentes son: se centra en el estudiante, es coherente en los diferentes años escolares y es flexible. Los resultados de este análisis se utilizarán en una etapa posterior como parte de una investigación más amplia, cuya finalidad es crear una propuesta educativa ambiental para elaborar competencias relacionadas con la GIRD asociada al CC en la escuela Excelencia de Cahuita en Limón, Costa Rica.

More blast injuries are encountered in the civilian setting in recent years as terrorist attacks have increased globally. A 17-year-old male patient with severe blast injury of the right lower extremity was admitted to our department on the fifth day after a terrorist bombing attack. Initially he had been admitted to an emergency department with segmental tibia fracture and arterial injury (Gustilo IIIC). An amputation had been foreseen due to ischemia that persisted even after orthopedic fixation and revascularization interventions, followed by fasciotomy incisions. After consultation with our department hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) therapy was administered twice daily for the first week. Ischemia improved prominently after 10 HBO2 sessions. HBO2 therapy was continued together with antibiotherapy and wound care. The patient underwent a total of 40 HBO2 sessions and two reconstructive operations and healed without amputation. Vascular injuries with concomitant orthopedic trauma cause most of the delayed amputations in bombing attacks since ischemia can persist at the microvascular level even though adequate treatments are applied. HBO2 corrects hypoxia at tissue level and so provides oxygen for the critically ischemic cells in the injured area. HBO2 also enhances host defense and decreases the ischemia reperfusion injury. In this case, HBO2 was effective in survival and functional recovery (salvage) of the extremity together with regular wound care, antibiotherapy and surgical repair.
JOGO TEATRAL, INTUIÇÃO E FUNÇÃO SIMBÓLICA
Authors: Tancrede Onira de Ávila Pinheiro , Camargo Robson Corrêa de
Published: December 2020

O objetivo deste estudo é relacionar os aspectos metodológicos dos jogos teatrais elaborados por Viola Spolin (Chicago 1906-1994) com as reflexões sobre o jogo simbólico (jeu symbolique) e o conhecimento intuitivo, tais como apresentado por Jean Piaget (1896-1980). Spolin, diretora de teatro e autora norte-americana, constituiu uma metodologia improvisacional a partir dos jogos como estruturadora da prática do ensino e apresentação de teatro para criança, jovens e adultos. Piaget, conhecido epistemólogo suíço, especializou-se no entendimento do processo de desenvolvimento cognitivo da criança. A partir desta relação Spolin – Piaget, a pesquisa analisa a função simbólica, os jogos simbólicos ([1945]), relacionando o pensamento de Jean Piaget e a prática dos jogos improvisacionais de Viola Spolin ([1963]) no desenvolvimento do pensamento intuitivo.

Published: December 2020

Introduction The mechanisms that drives SLE remission.The aim of the
present study was to measure CD4+ and CD8+ T cell exhaustion in SLE
patients in prolonged remission (PR-SLE) and compared them with patients
with active SLE (Act-SLE) and healthy subjects Methods We included 15
PR-SLE patients, 15 Act-SLE and 29 healthy subjects. T-cell exhaustion
was determined by flow cytometry according to the expression of PD-1,
Tim-3, 2B4, EOMES and T-bet in CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Dimensionality
reduction using the t-Distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding
algorithm and Clustering Analysis was used for the identification of
relevant populations. Results Percentages of CD3+, CD4+ and CD8+ T cells
were similar among groups. We identified five subpopulations of CD8+ and
seven of CD4+ cells. The CD4+Tbet+CD45RO+ cells identified in the
unsupervised analysis were significantly increased in PR-SLE vs Act-SLE
(median: 10.20, IQR: 1.74-30.50 vs. 1.68, IQR: 0.4-2.83;
p<0.01). CD4+EOMES+ cells were also increased in PR-SLE vs
Act-SLE (5.24, IQR: 3.38-14.70 vs. 1.39, IQR: 0.48-2.87;
p<0.001). CD8+ EOMES+ cells were increased in PR-SLE vs
Act-SLE (37.6, IQR: 24.9-53.2 vs 8.13, IQR: 2.33-20.5;
p<0.001). Exhausted and activated T cells presented an
increased frequency of PD-1, CD57 and EOMES in SLE patients vs healthy
subjects. Conclusions Some subpopulations of T cells expressing markers
associated with exhaustion are increased in patients in remission,
supporting T-cell exhaustion as a tolerance mechanism in SLE. Exhaustion
of specific populations of T cells might represent a potential
therapeutic tool that will contribute to the goal of achieving sustained
remission in these patients.

Introduction: Advanced intraocular retinoblastoma can be cured by
enucleation, but spread of retinoblastoma cells beyond natural limits of
the eye may lead to metastatic disease which is related to a high
mortality. Adjuvant therapy after enucleation has been shown to prevent
metastasis in children with risk factors for extraocular retinoblastoma.
However, histological criteria and adjuvant treatment regimens vary and
there is no unifying consensus on the optimal choice of treatment.
Method: Data on guidelines for adjuvant treatment in European
retinoblastoma referral centres were collected in an online survey among
all members of the European Retinoblastoma group (EURbG) network.
Extended information were gathered via personal Email communication.
Results: Data were collected from 26 centres in 17 countries. Guidelines
for adjuvant treatment were in place at 92.3% of retinoblastoma
centres. There was a consensus on indication for and intensity of
adjuvant treatment among more than 80% of all centres. The majority of
centres use no adjuvant treatment for isolated focal choroidal invasion
or prelaminar optic nerve invasion. Patients with massive choroidal
invasion or postlaminar optic nerve invasion receive adjuvant
chemotherapy, while microscopic invasion of the resection margin of the
optic nerve or extension through the sclera are treated with combined
chemo- and radiotherapy. Conclusion: Indications and adjuvant treatment
regimens in European retinoblastoma referral centres are similar but not
uniform. Further biomarkers in addition to histopathological risk
factors could improve treatment stratification. The high consensus in
European centres is an excellent foundation for a common European study
with prospective validation of new biomarkers.
Depth geological relations of the wider area of Belgrade - based on the wells and geophysical data
Authors: Marinovic Djordje , Rundic Ljupko
Published: December 2020

The subject work covers the Belgrade wider area with a total area of about 2,000 km2. The authors integrated the principal geological and geophysical data provided by surface works and multidisciplinary elements from the fifty-two wells with depths between 33 and 2,733 m. Explicit paleontological findings of specialized analytists with determinations of macro- and microfauna and flora are presented both from Neogene formations and the older basinal floor. In addition to conventional petrological descriptions of rocks, microscopic determinations of intrusive and extrusive magmatites were also cited. From the enclosed basin space, the mineralization of deep aquifers is also correlative positioned. From the geophysical data for wells deeper than 400 m, records of well logging measurements were used, with markers based on which valid stratigraphic delimitations were made. Seismic survey sections were the basis for spatial shaping of Neogene sedimentation and basin floor configuration. For in-depth geological interpretations, published and repository gravimetric and geomagnetic maps of different sizes and years were consulted. The authors focused primarily on factometric indicators without entering into variable and debatable theoretical schematizations, especially orogenically complex of subbasin tectonics, in dissonant relations with the younger disjunctive shaped configuration which is visually shown in the reference cross-sections both vertically and laterally
Women’s strategies in balancing career and family in the academic community in Serbia: Differences in ethnic and social origins
Authors: Lendák-Kabók Karolina
Published: December 2020

Even though the confrontation of women with the necessity to seek a balance
between career and family in academia has become a subject of various
research studies, a structural solution for this phenomenon still does not
exist. The goal of this paper is to compare the narratives of Hungarian
ethnic minority and Serbian majority female university staff members working
at the Universities of Novi Sad and Belgrade, with respect to the
difficulties they face when balancing family life and academic career. The
qualitative research was based on twenty semi-structured interviews,
conducted in 2014 and 2015. The findings show that women when balancing
between their careers and families used certain strategies to explain their
views and decisions. The challenge of finding work-life balance is great for
women, who decide to deal with it on a micro level, in their own family and
in their own way, to keep up with their commitments. Although these are
women with the same socio-economic status, the intersectional analysis
showed that there is a difference between the strategies used by respondents
of different nationalities when balancing their career and family, and that
their different social origin, family and life circumstances lead to
establishing differences between these professional categories of women. The
abovementioned differences lead to new inequalities between women in
academia.

Authors: Al-Nadawi Mays , Kravitz Neal D. , Hansa Ismaeel , Makki Laith , Ferguson Donald J. , Vaid Nikhilesh R.
Published: December 2020

Objectives

To compare the efficacy of orthodontic tooth movement with three aligner wear protocols: 7 day, 10 day, and 14 day.

Materials and Methods

Eighty patients were randomly allocated into three groups: group A (7-day changes), group B (10-day changes), and group C (14-day changes). The posttreatment scans were compared with the final virtual treatment simulations through digital superimposition. The differences between predicted and actual achieved treatment outcomes were computed in six angular and six linear dimensions. Differences >0.5 mm for linear measurements and >2° for angular measurements were considered clinically relevant.

Results

Within groups, and irrespective of wear protocol, all linear discrepancies in both jaws were deemed clinically insignificant (<0.5 mm) while nearly all angular discrepancies were considered clinically significant (>2.0°). When the three groups were compared, group C (14-day changes) showed significantly greater accuracy in the posterior segment for maxillary intrusion, distal-crown tip and buccal-crown torque, and mandibular intrusion and extrusion. The mean treatment duration in the 7-day aligner change group was nearly half that of the 14-day aligner change group (5 months vs 9 months).

Conclusions

Fourteen-day changes were statistically significantly more accurate in some posterior movements. However, this difference in accuracy did not exceed the threshold for clinical significance (>0.5 mm/>2.0°). Achieving a clinically similar accuracy between the 7-day protocol and 14-day protocol in half the treatment time suggests a 7-day protocol as an acceptable treatment protocol. Clinicians may consider slowing down to a 14-day protocol if challenging posterior movements are desired.

Authors: Echouffo-Tcheugui Justin B. , Daya Natalie , Lee Alexandra K , Tang Olive , Ndumele Chiadi E. , Windham B. Gwen , Shah Amil M. , Selvin Elizabeth
Published: December 2020

Objective:
To
assess the association of severe hypoglycemia measured at baseline with
cardiovascular disease (CVD) among community-dwelling older individuals with
diabetes, a group particularly susceptible to hypoglycemia.

Methods:
We
included older adults with diabetes from the Atherosclerosis Risk in
Communities (ARIC) Study who attended visit 5 (2011–2013, baseline). Severe
hypoglycemia at baseline was defined using first position ICD-9 codes, from
hospitalizations, emergency department visits, and ambulance calls. We examined
cross-sectional associations of
severe hypoglycemia with echocardiographic indices
of cardiac structure-function. We prospectively evaluated the risks of incident
or recurrent CVD (coronary heart disease, stroke or heart failure) and
all-cause mortality, from baseline
to 31 December 2018, using negative binomial and Cox regression models.

Results:
Among
2,193 participants (mean age: 76 years [SD: 5], 57% female, 32% blacks), 79 had
a history of severe hypoglycemia at baseline. Severe hypoglycemia was
associated with a lower left ventricular (LV)
ejection fraction (adjusted beta coefficient: -3.7 % [95% CI: -5.5, -1.7]), higher
LV end diastolic volume (14.8 ml [95% CI: 8.8, 20.8]), higher E/A ratio (0.11 [95% CI: 0.03, 0.18]), and higher septal E/e’ (2.48 [95%CI: 1.13, 3.82]). In adjusted models, severe
hypoglycemia was associated with incident or recurrent CVD
(incidence rate ratio [IRR]: 2.49 (95% CI 1.4, 4.39]) and all-cause mortality
(HR 1.70 [95% CI 1.10, 2.67]) among those without prevalent CVD.

Conclusions:
Our findings suggest that a history severe hypoglycemia is associated with
alterations in cardiac function and is an important marker of future
cardiovascular risk in older adults.
The chronology and periodization of the Bronze and the early Iron Age burial ground in Domasław, Wrocław district, based on radiocarbon dating
Authors: Goslar Tomasz
Published: December 2020

The article presents the results of the radiocarbon dating and Bayesian analysis of 14C dates of bones from the burial ground in Domasław. The Bayesian analysis used the relative chronology obtained based on the characteristic features of grave goods and the assigning of individual burials to specific periods of the late Bronze Age (III EB – V EB ) or the early Iron Age (HC – LtA). A coherent chronological model of the burial ground was accepted after assuming that graves with transitional features, attributable to two subsequent periods, could have been contemporary of graves from one or the other period. The temporal frames of particular periods calculated by the model allow us to improve previously published chronological diagrams of the late Bronze Age and the early Iron Age in the region.

Synovial chondromatosis (SC) is a rare pathological condition that is characterized by the formation of cartilaginous nodules inside a joint cavity. It mainly affects the knee joints, hip, shoulder, and elbow, so the TMJ is rarely the target of such condition. Its etiology is still unknown and is usually diagnosed through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), histopathological exams, and, in some cases, arthroscopy, once the clinical inspection normally is not enough to conclude the diagnose. This study reports a case of a 35-year-old man that came to the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery service complaining about limited mouth opening, occlusal dystopia, and increase of volume on the right pre-auricular region associated to pain. The SC diagnosis was suggested after realizing a CT and MRI. An Al-Kayat approach was performed to fully visualize the TMJ, removal of all the cartilaginous fragments, hemostasis and suture by layers. The diagnosis was confirmed through the histopathological exam. The patient evolved asymptomatic.
Art in the service of agriculture: John Buchanan’s nature printing of ‘The Indigenous Grasses of New Zealand’
Authors: Tyler Linda
Published: December 2020

To disseminate new knowledge about scientific discoveries in New Zealand in the nineteenth century, draughtsmen were employed to convey the characteristics of a specimen using techniques of lithography, occasionally assisted by photography and microscopy. The Transactions and Proceedings of the New Zealand Institute was an annual publication of scientific papers presented by experts at the various provincial branches throughout the country, and was first published in Wellington in 1868 and issued in 1869.1 Until his retirement from government service in 1885, it was primarily illustrated by John Buchanan (1819-1898). This paper aims to give a broader understanding of Buchanan’s significance for both New Zealand’s science history and its art history by considering his relationship to the emergent techniques of photography and lithography. His isolated use of nature printing for the production of the three volume guide to forage plants, The Indigenous Grasses of New Zealand, is placed in the context of the nineteenth century approach to scientific illustration as evidence.
Undressed: A study of Louise Henderson’s ‘Les Deux Amies’ (1953)
Authors: Nichols Chelsea , Waters Linda
Published: December 2020

This article takes an in-depth look at Louise Henderson’s cubist-inspired painting Les Deux Amies (1953), which she painted upon her return to New Zealand after a year studying in Paris with cubist artist Jean Metzinger. Using a combination of formal analysis, infrared imaging and a study of her materials, we go beneath the surface of the painting to find new insights into the creation of this important work, which helped introduce European modernism to the conservative local art scene. In particular, this paper argues that “undressing” the figures in Les Deux Amies reveals a rich, hidden record of how Henderson worked through key questions about material construction, subject matter and composition at a crucial moment in her artistic career.
PEREMPUAN SUNDA DAN PELACURAN DI ZAMAN KOLONIAL
Authors: Jaelani Gani Ahmad
Published: December 2020

This article aims to analyze the relationship between Sundanese women and prostitution practices in the colonial era. The emphasis on Sundanese women is derived from the abundance of news reporting that they resort to prostitution because of the inherent vice, such as laziness and fondness of luxury. This view, mostly through European eyes, puts women, especially Sundanese women, into such a predicament. Therefore, there are three main concerns to discuss in this article. First, it analyses European reports on Sundanese women and their relation with prostitution. Second, it shows the complexity of the practice of prostitution in a colonial country. Last, it discusses that prostitution is enabled by other material conditions such as urban development. It is important to note that the association with immorality on a certain ethnic group has always been rooted from the past. In addition, it reinforces that the assumption that prostitution is merely women’s issue can no longer be held onto.

"The incidence of psychological distress (such as anxiety and depression) is high in COPD patients. CBT has been proved to reduce depression and anxiety and enhance quality of life. This meta-analysis evaluated the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy(CBT) on patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD). The following electronic databases were searched from inception to March
2020: PubMed, EMBase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Medline, OVID, CINAHL, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), China
National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wangfang Database (WF), PsycARTICLES, VIP database. The Scopus and Google scholar database that we did not use. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared CBT with routine methods of care in COPD were retrieved in electronic databases. The Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool and Review Manager version 5.3 were used for risk of bias assessment and meta-analysis, respectively. Both data synthesis and descriptive analysis were used for outcome assessment. A total of 10 RCTs involving 1173 patients were included. Data synthesis showed that CBT was statistically significant in improving short- and medium-term depression and treatment compliance. Mediumterm anxiety and quality of life were improved among COPD patients receiving CBT, although no significant effect was found for short-term quality of life and anxiety. Descriptive analysis showed that CBT could reduce dyspnea. No clear evidence supports the effectiveness on improving self-efficacy in COPD patients with the use of CBT (P > 0.05).
CBT can be a useful strategy to improve the symptoms of depression, dyspnea and treatment compliance in patients with COPD. It can also improve patients’ quality of life and anxiety to some extent, but there is still lack of strong evidence in improving patients’ self-efficacy."

It includes: a short overview of the historical context of the establishment of the Austrian military border in this province, references to the international and Romanian state of the art, the detailing of primary sources issued by the military environment and starting from which the database was built and the main principles of construction and operation of the latter. The information in the database is extracted from the records of the military and administrative personnel of the Transylvanian border regiments between 1763 and 1850, including monthly staff records, information on salaries, enrollments, transfers, desertions, medical certificates, etc. The lists of conduct of the officers should also be mentioned, each of them including a detailed physical and psychological description of the respective person. The database serves two aims. On the one hand, to boost the use of and access to documents generated by the Austrian military and with this to bring the Romanian historical writing on the military border in Transylvania closer to the primary sources. On the other hand, to complement, for the territory of the former military border, the vital registration data provided by parish registers with social history data that can improve life course reconstruction and analysis.
