La enfermedad como médium. Aproximación a los dibujos de Unica Zürn
Authors: Puelles Romero Luis
Published: January 2020

Situándonos en un campo de intersecciones conformado por el surrealismo, el informalismo y el outsider art, se elabora en lo que sigue una propuesta hermenéutica atenta a la complejidad –empezando por su estatuto como “objeto artístico” –  de la obra dibujada de Unica Zürn. La coincidencia, a partir de los años cincuenta, entre la realización de sus inquietantes dibujos y sus continuados internamientos en sanatorios mentales hace difícil eludir la consideración de cómo inciden en sus trabajos la esquizofrenia que se le diagnostica. En la segunda parte de este artículo se acude a la fenomenología de Gaston Bachelard y a la formulación de lo figural por parte de Jean-François Lyotard, procurando reunir ciertas herramientas de interpretación que mantengan la singularidad de estas imágenes en términos de irreductibilidad a las tentaciones que quisieran tomarlas en clave patológica.
El viaje hacia la antiguedad en el Sueño de Polifilo de Francesco Colonna (Venecia, 1499)
Authors: Sverlij Mariana
Published: January 2020

En la Hypnerotomachia Poliphili (Venecia, 1499), Polifilo recorre, en sueños, distintos espacios caracterizados por la presencia de culturas pretéritas representadas, fundamentalmente, a partir de sus lenguas y  de sus creaciones arquitectónicas. De allí que su recorrido onírico pueda pensarse como un viaje hacia la antigüedad. En el presente trabajo, indagamos en las peculiaridades de esta elaboración del mundo antiguo que, en los albores del siglo XVI, ofrece el libro de Colonna. Seguiremos para ello tres modos en que el texto y los grabados representan la antigüedad: como (1) ruina, (2) como sueño (3) y como espacio híbrido.
Città di carta e terremoti. L’iconografia della catastrofe in Basilicata (1851-1857)
Authors: Romano Lia
Published: January 2020

Il contributo intende analizzare la ricca documentazione iconografica relativa a due importanti terremoti che hanno colpito la “Provincia di Basilicata” nell’Italia meridionale nel 1851 e nel 1857. In entrambi i casi i danni furono accuratamente rappresentati da disegni, e per il sisma del 1857 anche da fotografie, fonti preziose per la comprensione e l’analisi dei danni inferti al patrimonio urbano e architettonico della regione. Gli elaborati grafici redatti da artisti, architetti e dall’ingegnere-geologo Robert Mallet, seppur realizzati con finalità differenti, restituiscono all’unisono un’interessante spaccato della Basilicata di metà Ottocento caratterizzato da un paesaggio urbano frutto delle trasformazioni prodotte dai frequenti disastri naturali. L’analisi e il confronto critico di tale documentazione iconografica e delle descrizioni che la accompagnano costituisce un’utile strumento per l’analisi dei caratteri costruttivi della regione nonché per lo studio e l'interpretazione delle lente modificazioni e delle tracce lasciate dal sisma sull'identità dei piccoli centri urbani.
Ilusiones urbanas y arquitectónicas. Algunas consideraciones
Authors: Isac Ángel
Published: January 2020

Si pensamos que toda la historia de la ciudad, o de sus arquitecturas, está fertilizada por ilusiones –es decir, por pensamientos que recorren tanto el espacio utópico como el más pragmático–, se comprenderá fácilmente el valor de algunos textos como los considerados aquí. Aunque dispares por naturaleza y tiempo, todos contribuyen al conocimiento de importantes problemáticas vinculadas a la teoría y al proyecto. Howard y Soria, junto con Kelly, pero también Eiximenis, Sinapia, Fourier y Cabet, Mendoza o Hitler, nos proporcionan textos plagados de ensoñaciones a los que se han unido los de instituciones u organismos que predican la bondad de la ciudad inteligente; tal vez un nuevo trampantojo.
La ciudad desde el aire en las pantallas. Espectador y transeúnte
Authors: Gorostiza López Jorge
Published: January 2020

La vista del paisaje urbano desde lo alto ha fascinado a los seres humanos, una mirada diferente a otras y que modifica la percepción de la ciudad. El cine desde sus inicios ha empleado esa mirada aérea urbana, mostrando las ciudades directamente desde aeronaves y también como fondo de otros artefactos voladores. Según donde se sitúe la cámara en esas aeronaves, cambia el punto de vista, que puede ser frontal, trasero, lateral e inferior, en cuanto a lo observado desde las alturas, se han elegido inicios de películas filmadas en Madrid. En la actualidad hay otra mirada a la ciudad mediatizada por los programas informáticos La representación aérea y en movimiento de las ciudades, implica un nuevo modo de pensar y experimentar el paisaje urbano, que provoca un cambio significativo en los espectadores y transeúntes.
Comparative Analysis of Surveys Focused on Pupils' Attitudes Toward the Teaching of Programming in Schools
Authors: Hornik Tomáš
Published: January 2020

The teaching of programming has been implemented at elementary schools worldwide as early as at the age of six. Even though the subject matter in the teaching of programming is mostly given, the specific form and content of lessons can significantly influence the attitudes of pupils, yet there is no standardized tool for evaluation of pupils' attitude toward the course. This study aims to compare and analyze existing attitudes surveys specifically focused on programming while considering limitations of secondary school pupils (ISCED-2). The article is based on theoretical and methodological literature review and a comparative analysis of existing surveys. Current surveys are mostly focused on university students and the questions are far too complex to be understood by pupils at elementary schools, making it necessary to create and validate new attitudes survey purely for the purpose of the topic of programming, that would reflect secondary school pupils limitations. Such a survey could be further used to compare different programming courses and their impact on pupils' attitudes. The research serves as a foundation for the development and testing of a new attitudes survey derived from existing ones and specifically modified for secondary school pupils.

The linguistic lacunicon: cognitive mapping in schemes and terms
Authors: Anokhina Tetiana
Published: January 2020

The new linguistic science lacunology has come into prominence recently. The lacunae studies embrace sociolinguistics, nonverbal semiotics and applied linguistics studies. The re-search of terms of lacunology (lacunicon) is devoted to empty places in the structure of the contrasting languages and the ways of zero verbalization in the written and oral discourse. The empty category of the category “lacunarity” has been studied by the Canadian transla-tors Jean Paul Vinay (1910-1999) and Jean Darbelnet (1904-1990), the Russian pioneers of lacu-nology Yuriy Sorokin (1936-2009) and Gulchera Bikova and their followers. The research has resulted in the cognitive mind mapping. It turned out that lacunarity has several vectors, e.g. lacunae of language (i), lacunae of speech (ii), lacunae of cognition (iii) to be further discussed in the article. The basic terms of lacunicon are described. These are a pause in syntagmatics, a linguistic gap in paradigmatics, a lacuna in both diachronic and synchronic regimes.
Public relations ethics in information management
Authors: Jakopović Hrvoje
Published: January 2020

Public relations is involved in all communication between an organization and the pu-blic. In the contemporary world, PR practitioners have become the facilitators of information. Information and communication technology (ICT) have imposed new rules in the fi eld of public relations. Communication strategy and information management have become crucial parts of modern public relations. People change their habits with regard to the consumption of traditional and new media. The challenges imposed by the development of information and communication technology are also related to understanding the new information so-ciety. For that reason information ethics deals with the ethical implications of dissemination, use, development and safety of information. Public relations follow new information and communication trends, and they need to build fi rm ethical principles for the age of informa-tion. The author examines the ethical implications of the framing concept in public relations.
Traditional Ukrainian songs as performed by folk choirs of ‘Sloboda’ Ukraine
Authors: Rusina Vlada
Published: January 2020

In the context of the worldwide globalization processes the issues pertaining to the quest for national identity acquire a particular signifi cance. This is true in the case of Ukraine as a newly-independent state in the establishment and consolidation phase.In the conditions marked by a general obliteration of folk customs and traditions it is folk amateur choirs/gatherings (hurts) that often become vehicles of folk culture. This study pres-ents rare records of traditional Ukrainian songs, some of them dating back to the 19th century, which the author made in the course of several fi eld trips.
The role of clothing in the pre-bourgeois ambience of Kersnik’s novels
Authors: Perović Ana
Published: January 2020

The article focuses on the analysis of women’s and men’s clothing appearances in the pre-bo-urgeois ambience of Kersnik’s novels. Particular clothing items and clothing appearances indicate the presence of specifi c spiritual and social characteristics, typical for the cultural and historical environment in which the two literary works were created. The methodological approach of the analysis in terms of theory is based on general semiotic theory (Eco, Lotman), cultural semiotics (Barthes), literary theory and literary history, Lotman’s symbol theory, clothing culture, discourse analysis and Bourdieu’s theory of habitus. The article discusses separately the clothing appearan-ces of male and female characters. The descriptions of clothing appearances reveal the socio-histo-rical background of the literary works as well as many other abstract categories such as characters’ mental states, their ideologies, political beliefs, positive and negative character attributes as well as their moral virtues and vices. Clothes as part of the pre-bourgeois habitus try to establish a balance between the urban and the rural, between prestige and humility, between refi nement and coar-seness. Irony is often a result of the contrast between the physical determinants and the associate variable, i.e. the clothing. The author uses a range of various clothing appearances to characterize and mock different classes of people; the trivial conversations about fashion denote the banality of social life; the differences between the “true” bourgeoisie and those who strive to reach and fi t into that social class are already strongly indicated in the descriptions of their external appearances.
Sterilizálási lehetőségek a fogászatban. Rugalmas anyagok csírátlanításának korlátai egy eset kapcsán
Authors: Suta Péter , Márton Ildikó , D. Tóth Etelka , Martos Renáta
Published: January 2020

Absztrakt:

A mindennapi fogászati praxisban igen fontos a sterilitás. Az egyes eszközök és
anyagok csírátlanítása azonban eltérő módszereket igényel. A hőérzékeny és
rugalmas, elasztikus anyagok esetén a legelterjedtebb sterilizálási módok azért
nem használhatók, mert alacsonyabb hőmérsékletű sterilizálás szükséges, hogy ne
veszítsék el eredeti fizikai tulajdonságaikat. Ezen anyagok közé tartozik a
kofferdam lepedő is, mely rugalmasságától megfosztva alkalmatlanná válik
izolálási feladatának ellátására a fogmegtartó kezelések során. Gumilepedő
csírátlanítására ritkán kerül sor, bizonyos esetek megoldása azonban
megkívánhatja azt. Ilyen szituációban a fogorvosnak viszonylag limitált, sokszor
nehezen elérhető eszköztárból kell választania. Közleményünk sorra veszi a
sterilizálóeljárásokat, különös figyelmet szentelve a plazmasterilizálásnak,
illetve a hidrogén-peroxid-gázt használó eljárásoknak. Esetbemutatásunkban egy
kiterjedt, a fog koronai és gyökéri területét is érintő ínyszél alá terjedő
fraktúra ellátása során az adhezív technika alkalmazhatóságát
hidrogén-peroxid-gázt használó készülékben sterilizált kofferdam lepedő
felhelyezésével biztosítottuk. Orv Hetil. 2020; 161(3): 110–115.
The Effects of Choice Attributes of Hallyu Star Souvenirs and Emotional Identification on After-Consumption Behavior : Focusing on Chinese Tourists
Authors:   The Tourism Sciences Society Of Korea, Ding Jing-Yi , Nam Yoon-Jae
Published: January 2020

The purpose of this study is to examine how the perception level of the selective attribute of tourism souvenirs related to Hallyu stars and fandom and the desire for homogeneity for them affect purchasing behavior, including repurchase and friendly word-of-mouth behavior. Results indicate that the quality and uniqueness of tourism souvenirs and the atmosphere, facilities, and accessibility of the stores had a positive effect on purchase satisfaction. However, the language, knowledge, and attitude of salespersons who sold of Hallyu star souvenirs did not have a statistically significant effect on purchase satisfaction. Also, the desire to identify with Hallyu star fandom had a positive effect on purchase satisfaction for Hallyu star souvenirs. Furthermore, all optional attributes of Hallyu star tourist souvenirs and the desire for identification of fandom had a direct effect on word-of-mouth behavior. This study is meaningful in that it deals with Hallyu star tourism souvenirs, which have not been thoroughly covered in the previous research. In addition, the fact that the desire to identify with the fandom of Hallyu stars was studied together with the causal relationship between purchase satisfaction and post-purchase behavior is more significant than previous studies, which have mainly focused on the selection attributes of tourism souvenirs.
Sol de América: una cátedra de orquestación contemporánea
Authors: Sans Juan Francisco
Published: January 2020

Sol de América (1981-1982) es una composición para narrador, coro y orquesta del compositor uruguayo Antonio Mastrogiovanni (1936-2010). El presente estudio utiliza el método hermenéutico (Nattiez, 1990) para dar cuenta de esta obra a partir del análisis de su orquestación. En este caso, se le da preeminencia a las texturas, timbres y sonoridades por encima de la armonía, las alturas o la forma, parámetros que usualmente se priorizan en la mayoría de los métodos analíticos. Como resultado se obtiene una visión inédita de la música, desde una perspectiva que permite descubrir las propiedades fuertemente cohesivas de la orquestación.
Del puntal al caracol nuevas perspectivas en el timbre y la técnica del violonchelo
Authors: Castrillón Arcila Sergio Andrés
Published: January 2020

El presente artículo busca estudiar el gran cambio en el timbre y en las técnicas de interpretación que se ha dado en la música para violonchelo solo desde el siglo xx hasta nuestros días. Timbre, como una compleja cualidad sonora, empezó a explorarse más y a adquirir mayor importancia en el repertorio para violonchelo solo a principios del siglo xx. Sin embargo, esta exploración no se desarrolla sino hasta después de los años cincuenta, cuando el timbre se consolida como elemento primario dentro del repertorio. En primer lugar, se analizó las nuevas exploraciones tímbricas en el violonchelo y su influencia en el desarrollo del repertorio a solo y con medios electrónicos en el siglo xx y xxi. Después de este análisis, se examinó cómo el cambio de paradigma tímbrico en las obras para violonchelo solo del siglo xx y principios del xxi está ligado principalmente a dos grandes acontecimientos que han evolucionado de manera simultánea durante los mismos siglos: el desarrollo de las llamadas técnicas extendidas y el surgimiento de diversas tendencias musicales.
A Field Research as an Anthropological Tool in Literary Reportage (on the Examples of Journalistic Texts by Joseph Roth)
Authors: Yaremchuk Olesya
Published: January 2020

This article studies the use of field research as an anthropological tool in literary reportage which is a comprehensive element of the creation of journalistic content. Based on the examples of journalistic texts of the 20s by the Austrian writer Joseph Roth, we have analyzed the anthropological methods which were used by this author in his reportages, that is the main objective of this study. Using diachronic comparison, qualitative method and content analysis to evaluate and to explain the concept of Joseph Roth’s texts, as well as the methodology of textual, syntagmatic (by Volodymyr Propp) and paradigmatic analysis (by Claude Levi-Strauss), we have examined the generated meanings in the texts of the mentioned author.

As a result of the study, we have identified four methods that Joseph Roth used writing his news reportages in the 1920s, including “In Midday France” and “White Cities”. Those methods are as follows: overt observation, in-depth interviews, fixing details and gaining empirical experience. The modern authors call these methods as classic ones, without which it is impossible to work in this genre. As we have seen from the examples of literary reportages of the French cycle by Joseph Roth, the anthropological tools used by this author for his works contributed to deepening and improving the quality of his texts which is of great significance for our study. Joseph Roth created a panoramic picture of the twentieth century in his texts through watching, communicating and studing. However, it is worth to add that he was often too subjective, suffering harsh criticism for this.
Topics and Themes of Vitalii Portnikov’s Social and Political Journalism (the Case of Materials of the Internet Outlet Radio Liberty)
Authors: Zoria Alina
Published: January 2020

The article deals with the topics and themes of materials of V. Portnikov, the well-known political journalist in Ukraine and abroad. The urgency of scientific research is to study and expand the scientific discourse on political journalism, its topics and themes, relevance and reliability of information and introduction of new names.

The objective of the study is to identify and analyze the main thematic lines and features of themes of V. Portnikov’s journalistic materials. The task of the study is to carry out a brief biographical analysis, which is necessary for understanding the personality of V. Portnikov; to ascertain and to generalize the thematic range of publicist’s materials; to define the problems of author’s materials through the line of topical issues, political situation and processes in Ukraine and the world as whole; to systematize creativity and professional attitudes of a publicist to political processes, leadership, states, authorities, regimes, etc. that helped in achieving the objective of the study.

The methodological basis of the study that consisted of the topics and themes of V. Portnikov’s political journalism was based on the principles of historicity, objectivity, complexity and authenticity. A number of general and specific scientific methods were used to analyze the topics and themes of his publicistic materials. The descriptive method was used to outline the available materials of socio-political themes and topics of a journalist in the Internet outlet “Radio Liberty” for 2017-2018 and the first quarter of 2019. The content analysis method was used to identify the problem-thematic aspect of the publicist’s materials. The biographical method was used in studying the peculiarities of his creative activities and the method of differentiation in work was used to determine the thematic peculiarities and to find out the problematic aspects of his creativity. The qualitative analysis of V. Portnikov’s texts was the leading method of the study.

The analysis of the author’s journalistic speeches showed that V. Portnikov accentuated the readers’ attention on the ugent issues, gave an objective and thorough assessment of the current situation. This author lets each topic pass through himself, thereby stimulating and appealing the audience to reflection, and also helped to understand and to rethink the most important sociopolitical processes.

Authors: Medvedeva V.A. , Kadyrov R.V.
Published: January 2020

The article discusses the attitude towards life and death in adolescents with cancer. The behavioral, cognitive and emotional components of the attitude to life and death in adolescents with cancer are described. Surveyed 83 teenagers. The main group - adolescents with cancer in remission (41 people), the average age of adolescents was 14 ± 1.1 years. The time spent in the department of rehabilitation treatment ranged from 7 to 21 days. The comparison group - pupils of Secondary School №7 (42 people), the average age of adolescents was 14 ± 1.1 years. Psychodiagnostic methods were used: 1) Death Attitude Profile-Revised Questionnaire; 2) Questionnaire with elements of an associative experiment, specially designed for the study; 3) Drawing projective technique “Drawing life and death”, R.V. Kadyrov. In the course of the study, the influence of the characteristics of attitudes towards life and death on the process of rehabilitation treatment and rehabilitation was revealed. Differences in attitudes towards life and death in adolescents also identified. In adolescents with cancer, the fear of death is more pronounced, the concept of life after death has more religious ideas than in the comparison group, and death perceived as a way to avoid life problems. They are less responsible about their future, the concept of the meaning of life is abstract or not formed.
Semantic Representation of Destructive Experience in the System of Mental Self-Organization of Personality
Authors: Diyakov S.I.
Published: January 2020

In the aspect of the problem of unconscious mental self-organization of a personality, the subject of the basic semantics of problematic individual experience is determined, which reflects the structure of subconscious destructive anxiety complexes. The analysis of the psychodynamic approach in psychotherapy and modeling of unconscious mental self-organization in the context of synergetics and personality subjectivity is presented. The semantic approach to modeling of consciousness and unconscious structures is considered. The pilot study identified six topics of the basic semantics of anxiety: “I'm afraid”; “It's a shame,” “I can't,” “I don't know,” “It's a shame.” “It's my fault.” The highlighted topics reflect the semantic complexes of anxiety as a natural property of the unconscious mental self-organization of a person. The study confirms the central role of sociocultural factors in the semantic representation and categorization of experience, integrating the system of mental self-organization of a person. The topics of aggression were not found in the semantics of problematic experience, which makes it possible to exclude unconscious aggression as a basal factor of semantics.

Large Isotropic Component in the Source Mechanism of the 2013 Democratic People’s Republic of Korea Nuclear Test Revealed via a Hierarchical Bayesian Inversion
Authors: Mustać Marija , Hejrani Babak , Tkalčić Hrvoje , Kim Seongryong , Lee Sang-Jun , Cho Chang-Soo
Published: January 2020

The 12 February 2013 nuclear test conducted by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea stands out among other nuclear tests because it produced unusually large transversal motions. Previous studies found various percentages of isotropic components of the seismic moment tensor (MT), which opens up an important question about the reliability of the methods and assumptions we routinely use to recover the seismic MT in the point source approximation. Of particular interest is the data noise model that can be utilized to represent the uncertainty associated with the recorded data. If the noise is not accounted for, this may result in a range of unwanted effects such as overfitting waveform data, and, in turn, it may lead to erroneous conclusions. We thus scrutinize the analyses of the seismic MT of this explosion by performing a thorough analysis of the source depth and time utilizing newly developed Earth structure models to invert seismograms at regional distances at different frequency bands. In addition, we estimate the solution uncertainty within a hierarchical Bayesian framework that allows accounting for noise in the data. Our results show that the resulting MT of this event contains an expectedly large isotropic component (about 70%) and a dip-slip faulting.
Did Oldham Discover the Core After All? Handling Imprecise Historical Data with Hierarchical Bayesian Model Selection Methods
Authors: Muir Jack B. , Tsai Victor C.
Published: January 2020

Historical seismic data are essential to fill in the gaps in geophysical knowledge caused by the low rate of significant seismic events. Handling historical data in the context of geophysical inverse problems requires special care, due to the large errors in the data collection process. Using Oldham’s data for the discovery of Earth’s core as a case study, we illustrate how a hierarchical Bayesian model selection methodology using leave-one-out cross validation can robustly and efficiently answer quantitative questions using even poor-quality geophysical data. We find that there is statistically significant evidence for the existence of the core using only the P-wave data that Oldham effectively discarded in his discussion.
American Head Start Preschool Teachers Individualized Phonemic Awareness Coaching
Authors: SİMSAR Ahmet , TOURS Sara Beth , DENNY Lauren
Published: January 2020

Phonemic Awareness
instruction in the preschool setting can help children become better readers
in elementary school. Yet, within the United States there is no consistency in
the quality of the instruction within preschool in this topic. Especially, children
who are in Head Start programs are “at risk” for reading failure and may need
phonemic awareness skills even more for school success. This study explored
three preschool teachers in a Head Start preschool in Western Pennsylvania
through phonemic awareness coaching via an iPad on an app called ShowMe.
Teachers received weekly phonemic awareness coaching sessions and were then to
record a lesson they taught to their students and give a reflection of the
lessons at the end of the week. All three teachers (with varying educational
and experience levels) were able to teach at the least complex level of the
phonemic awareness continuum. While two of the three teachers were able to
achieve more complex levels of the phonemic awareness continuum. These
findings are critical and show a need to have more professional development on
phonemic awareness for preschool teachers within the United States.

Mostramos en este artículo la realidad del magisterio en La Rioja a mediados del siglo XVIII basándonos en el catastro de Ensenada y en documentos de la sección judicial del Archivo Histórico Provincial de La Rioja (AHPLR), fuentes que nos permiten comprobar que los maestros de primeras letras gozaban en La Rioja de una situación muy favorable y que su condición de servicio público necesario era aceptada ya en todos los pueblos. Pagados por los concejos y los padres –las dos fuentes de ingresos que recogió la ley Moyano de 1857–, los maestros gozaban de prestigio, desempeñaban oficios como organista, sacristán o incluso notario, y en general, disfrutaban de una buena situación económica relativa, siempre en el terreno de la austeridad obligada, pero muy por encima de la sociedad campesina en que se asentaban.

La evolución de la industria ganadera de lidia española: un estudio de caso a partir de la ganadería Fuentes (1798-1852)
Authors: Ruiz Santamaría Ricardo
Published: January 2020

La industria ganadera, en concreto la dedicada a las reses de lidia, comenzó a formarse a finales del siglo XVIII. Junto a ella apareció todo un mercado relacionado con el espectáculo taurino, desde los emplazamientos hasta los protagonistas, pasando por los ganaderos y apoderados. A la par de la búsqueda de réditos económicos, también aparecieron otro tipo de intereses muy distintos a los materiales, como el reconocimiento social, la fama y el ascenso dentro del statu quo. Uno de estos casos fue el de Julián de Fuentes, comerciante de origen riojano acomodado en Moralzarzal, donde formó una amplia ganadería de lidia que le trajo popularidad y reconocimiento en la primera mitad del siglo XIX.
La política en la calle: utilización del espacio público en La Rioja durante el Trienio Liberal
Authors: Díez Morrás Francisco Javier
Published: January 2020

El inicio de la época constitucional provocó en el país extraordinarias manifestaciones públicas de adhesión al nuevo sistema político. En La Rioja, especialmente en el Trienio Liberal, proliferaron los actos en favor de la Constitución de 1812, sus símbolos y sus instituciones. Para ello se hizo uso del espacio público por ser un ámbito idóneo para mostrar el apoyo a un nuevo tiempo. Los más importantes fueron organizados con motivo de la jura y proclamación constitucional, pero se sucedieron otros ante los atentados contra las lápidas de la Constitución, la apertura de las Cortes, o la presencia de un héroe del liberalismo en La Rioja como el general Riego. La respuesta de los absolutistas también se produjo en el ámbito público, lo que llevó a una guerra por los símbolos.
N-acetylneuraminic acid, phosphate and thiol groups of pyruvate kinase isoenzymes from Morris hepatoma 7777 and normal rat liver.
Authors: Ignacak J , Gumińska M
Published: January 2020

The highest amount of N-acetylneuraminic acid (AcNeu) was found in pyruvate kinase isoenzyme L from normal rat liver (24 moles/mole of enzyme tetramer), with the highest electrophoretic mobility. On the other hand, isoenzyme M2 from Morris hepatoma 7777, with the lowest electrophoretic mobility, had the lowest AcNeu content (5 moles/mole of enzyme tetramer). This tumour isoenzyme M2 of pyruvate kinase was, however, characterised by the highest phosphate content (12 moles/mole protein), in comparison to isoenzyme L (3 moles/mole protein) or normal liver isoenzyme M2 (6 moles/mole protein). This could indicate a regulatory change caused by reversible enzyme phosphorylation and dephosphorylation or sialization and desialization. Despite these differences, the sum of the two negatively charged residues was lower in tumour pyruvate kinase isoenzyme M2, with the slowest migration rate, than in normal rat liver isoenzyme M2. Moreover, isoenzyme M2 from tumour material, in comparison with isoenzyme M2 from normal rat liver, had a twice as high content of thiol groups (20 moles/mole protein), especially of free and superficially located ones, than the isoenzyme M2 from normal liver (10 moles/mole protein). This may explain abnormal susceptibility of tumour isoenzyme M2 to stereospecific inhibition by exogenous L-cysteine, and indicate genetically dependent changes in amino-acid content of tumour enzyme which take place during cell tumourigenic transformation.

A glucose-nonfermenting Gram-negative bacterial strain isolated from bronchofiberoscope used for examination of the patients suffering from pulmonary diseases was subjected to phenol-water extraction. Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) isolated from the water and the phenol phase differed in fatty acid composition. Both contained xylose, glucose, glucosamine and components typical for LPS, namely heptose, 3-deoxyoctulosonic acid (Kdo) and 3-hydroxymyristic acid. The presence of sphingosine in all LPS preparations classifies the strain to the genus Sphingomonas.

Published: January 2020

The lectin isolated from the leaves of Iris hybrida binds specifically N-acetyl-galactosamine and lactose. Its molecule consists of two identical subunits bound by disulfide bonds. The lectin is a glycoprotein containing about 12% of sugars. It binds asialoglycoproteins containing complex type sugar chains. The binding is reduced by half at the concentration of 0.15 to 0.40 mM of the galactose containing disaccharides irrespectively to a type of galactose isomer. This indicates rather broad specificity of I. hybrida leaf lectin.
Measuring Quality of Privately-Owned Early Childhood Care and Education Centers in the United Arab Emirates: A Ras Al Khaimah Case Study
Authors: Verma Priti , Cook Holly
Published: January 2020

Early childhood is a critical period in our social, cognitive, linguistic, emotional, and self-regulatory development, and extensive research has been conducted on children’s overall developmental processes, influencing factors, and their lifelong impacts. Research suggests the over-arching significance of supporting children’s early development through caregiver-child communication, social interactions, and play. Such interactions and opportunities for development in children’s early years are critical for later academic achievement and well-being. Moreover, the positive long-term effects of high-quality early childhood education (ECE), in particular on children’s development, as well as the economic, social, and cultural development of communities on a larger scale, have been extensively documented.
In the Arab Gulf region, especially in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), little research has been done to document and analyze ECE quality, practices, and their impacts. This case study focuses on the emirate of Ras Al Khaimah in the UAE, investigating the scope of programs and their quality, challenges, and opportunities for growth and improvement. The study found and documented extreme variations in the quality of early childhood education centers (ECECs) in the emirate and highlights the need to improve ECE policies, practices, and facilities by adopting recognized international standards, best practices, and support structures. This paper goes on to present data-driven policy recommendations to improve the quality of ECECs in Ras Al Khaimah and the greater UAE.

Background and purpose: Accurate calculating and evaluating of cost of services would result in clarity on the ways to achieve the desired goals in outsourcing of health centers and health comprehensive centers.
The present study was carried out to calculate the total cost of services at one health center before and after assignment to private sector (2014-2016) in Iran.
Materials and methods: This research was a descriptive-applied type of study conducted by using cross-sectional method, and based on the data collected from Yazd Abad health center in 2014-2016 and its affiliated and non-affiliated bases. The collected data were analyzed by developed forms, interview, and observation, based on the activity-based costing system. Excel Software was then used to analyze the collected data.
Results: The total number of services in nine sub-branches at the target health center was 783231 before assignment and 793589 after assignment. Sum of other costs was 446112820 Rials before assignment and 615112820 after assignment. The mean cost of a one-minute service at the Health Center was 90749 before assignment and 96295 after assignment. Among the nine branches, the highest cost service before and after assignment was related to school health branch and the lowest cost was related to oral health services branch.
Discussion: Total cost of each service provided a clear picture of the way of spending the costs in the process of production and providing health services. The research findings suggest that the total cost of services increased after assignment, while this increase was not significant, since the increase in total cost of services might be due to an increase in wages or a non-significant increase in providing the services after assignment. Thus, more studies are needed to assess the effectiveness of comprehensive health centers after assignment to the private sector.
Climate Wise Communities: Enhancing Traditional Bushfire Risk Management Using a Community Multi-Hazardresilience Program in Sydney, Australia
Authors: Cramp Jennie , Scott Jenny
Published: January 2020

Recently increasing extremes in fire weather and events have highlighted deficiencies in traditional bushfire hazard management. Australian policy has yet to effectively apply social dynamics into bushfire resilience which may explain why traditional approaches fail to sufficiently protect communities. Ku-ring-gai, NSW, Australia has a history of bushfire impact due to climate, extensive urban-bushland interface and population density. To better prepare for bushfire, Ku-ring-gai Council adopted a shared responsibility approach using the Climate Wise Communities (CWC) program. Interactive exercises and scenarios facilitate assessment of extreme weather vulnerability and planning for improved resilience. In collaboration with emergency services, Government, and not-for-profit agencies Council delivered targeted workshops to highly vulnerable sectors and localities. Over 220 have participated including families, neighbourhoods, community groups and social services. Aged care and early childhood businesses also trialled a multi-hazard approach successfully. Participation guides timely evacuation, property resilience and realistic stay and defend assessments. Outcomes include better household preparedness and decision-making. Continuing program refinements will develop networks to build independence and aid recovery that will also integrate small business, property owners, women’s groups and non-English speaking residents. The authors propose that social dynamics adds much needed latitude and flexibility to traditional bushfire risk management.

Published: January 2020

Background: Sparse data exist to describe national population-level trends in short sleep duration among Latinos. Because short sleep duration is associated with several health conditions that are common in Latinos, such as obesity, diabetes, and hypertension, understanding sleep trends among this population may be key to reduc­ing their disease burden. This study aimed to document Latino subgroup differences in self-reported sleep duration by nativity and country of origin relative to Whites.Design and Setting: Pooled cross-sectional analysis of self-reported data from the Na­tional Health and Interview Survey (NHIS), 2004-2017.Participants: 303,244 respondents, aged 18 to 84 years, who self-identified as non- Latino US-born White, US-born Mexican, foreign-born Mexican, US-born Puerto Rican, island-born Puerto Rican, US-born Cuban, foreign-born Cuban, US-born Dominican, foreign-born Dominican, US-born Central/South American, foreign-born Central/South American, US-born “other” Latino, and foreign-born “other” Latino.Methods: Multinomial logistic regression models were used to predict sleep duration controlling for demographics, acculturation, socioeconomic, and health-related factors. Results: We found that all Latino subgroups (except US-born Cubans) were more likely to report poor sleep duration relative to non-Latino Whites, net of demographic, acculturation, socioeconomic, and health-related characteristics. However, the magnitude of disadvantage varies by Latino subgroup. We also found that poor sleep duration is concentrated among certain age groups for the various Latino subpopula­tions.Conclusions: Given that Latinos in the United States are at higher risk for obesity, diabetes, and hypertension, understanding the patterns of sleep among this popula­tion can help identify strategies to improve sleep habits in order to reduce disease burden.
