Des de la integració a l'exclusió social: tres històries de vida de dones institucionalitzades
Authors: Moriana Mateo Gabriela
Published: May 2020

L'objectiu d'aquest article és analitzar els processos d'exclusió social de les dones institucionalitzades en els centres de protecció de la Comunitat Valenciana. Tant l'estratègia general com les principals tècniques d'investigació utilitzades han estat d'índole qualitativa. Així, a través d'observació participant, informes socials, documents personals i entrevistes informals i en profunditat, s'han elaborat quinze històries de vida. Atès que totes elles finalitzaven en la situació d'exclusió social / institucionalització, s'han classificat segons el punt de partida. Així, tres inicien les seves trajectòries vitals en la situació d'integració, vuit a la de vulnerabilitat i 4 habiten de forma permanent en l'exclusió social, encara que aquí només s'analitzen les tres primeres. Pel que fa als principals resultats, assenyalar que en les històries de vida analitzades subjacents diferents factors d'exclusió social específics de gènere, sent els més importants els rols de gènere, la divisió sexual de la feina, la dependència econòmica, la violència contra les dones i finalment la falta de suport i violència institucional, tots ells se sumen als factors d'exclusió social clàssics en la literatura del tema i que igual que als homes afecten també a les dones.
Housing First: la seva aplicació a Catalunya
Authors: Argemí Miquel B.
Published: May 2020

Tradicionalment s’ha intervingut en la problemàtica del sensellarisme a través del Model Continuum of Care, però aquest s’ha mostrat eficient només amb un perfil determinat de la població en situació de sense llar. Des del anys noranta als EEUU s’ha anat desenvolupant un model conegut com a Model Housing First el qual s’ha demostrat més eficient en la intervenció amb població més cronificada en la situació de sense llar. En aquest article es pretén comparar com s’està aplicant el Model Housing First a Catalunya amb el que s’entén des del model teòric creat als EEUU. Així com també veure quina és la situació actual del Model Housing First català. En primer lloc s’analitzen les principals fonts bibliogràfiques creadores del Model Housing First per tal d’intentar extreure les característiques teòriques bàsiques del model. En segon lloc s’intenta mostrar com s’està aplicant el model a Catalunya a través d’experiències com les que s’estan vivint a la Fundació Arrels de Barcelona i a Sant Joan de
Déu Serveis Socials per veure si s’hi troben les característiques que engloben el Model Housing First i amb quines dificultats s’estan trobant a l’hora d’aplicar el model. Finalment l’autora exposa els aspectes positius d’aplicar el Model Housing First, els aspectes sobre els que caldrà definir-se i les febleses del context català.

Published: June 2020

This study aims to evaluate the systems of transition to secondary education that have been practiced in Turkey to place students to secondary education institutions and to put forth to what degree these systems conform with the goals in Ministry of National Education (MoNE) 2023 Vision Document. In the study, the lessons in the systems of transition to secondary education that have been in practice so far are assessed with regard to distribution of questions, weight coefficients, the factors used in exam practices and evaluations, the grade levels of exams and years. The study employs the method of document analysis, which is a qualitative method. The data obtained were analyzed through content analysis. It was found out that though there is not a difference in the total number of questions in the transition to secondary education examinations through the years, the number of lessons that the students are responsible for increased. The numbers of questions in the Math, Science and Turkish lessons have reduced in the recent years, but their weight coefficients are still higher. The students were subjected to relative evaluation system except for the examinations of Transition from Primary to Secondary Education (TEOG). All the examinations were carried out at eighth grade Except for Placement Test (SBS). MoNE have reduced the number of questions in Social Studies lesson as well as its weight coefficient in evaluation system. MoNE included English lesson in the last three central transition systems and Education of Religion and Ethics lesson in the last two central transition systems. The questions of these two lessons were based on interpretation. This shows that MoNE tends to develop higher order thinking skills rather than knowledge level in the transition examinations. In the Entrance to High Schools Examination, put into practice in 2018 by MoNE, the obligation to participation to central examinations was abolished. The results of the study reveal that MoNE tries to increase content validity through holding students responsible for more lessons in the systems of transition to secondary education.

Published: June 2020

The study aimed to examine the pre-service teachers’ cognitive flexibility levels and techno-pedagogical education competencies in terms of several variables and to determine whether there is a relationship between their cognitive flexibility levels and techno-pedagogical education competencies. Determining whether the relationship between the cognitive flexibility and techno-pedagogical content knowledge that was emphasized in theoretical studies exists would contribute to teacher education. Thus, it could be stated that the cognitive flexibility might be included among the factors to enable the development and use of the techno-pedagogical content knowledge. The study was conducted with a total of 616 pre-service teachers and designed by using the exploratory correlational research model. The sample was determined by using convenience sampling methods. “Cognitive Flexibility Scale” and “Techno-pedagogical Education Competency Scale” were used for data collection. The findings demonstrated that the pre-service teachers have a high level of cognitive flexibility and techno-pedagogical education competency. It was also found that the cognitive flexibility scores had a statistically significant difference in terms of all independent variables (gender, type of program, and having a computer and internet access), and the techno-pedagogical education competency scores did not indicate a statistically significant difference in terms of gender and type of program, while they demonstrated a significant difference in terms of having a computer and internet access. Pearson’s correlation coefficient was calculated to determine the relationship between the pre-service teachers’ cognitive flexibility and techno-pedagogical education competency scores, and a moderately significant relationship was found. It could be concluded that the relationship emphasized in theoretical studies between the cognitive flexibility and techno-pedagogical content knowledge is moderate. Accordingly, the cognitive flexibility could provide the development and use of techno-pedagogical content knowledge which has an important role in teacher education.

Published: June 2020

Glioblastoma is the most common malignant primary brain tumor. Overall, the prognosis for patients with this disease is poor, with a median survival of <2 years. There is a slight predominance in males, and incidence increases with age. The standard approach to therapy in the newly diagnosed setting includes surgery followed by concurrent radiotherapy with temozolomide and further adjuvant temozolomide. Tumor‐treating fields, delivering low‐intensity alternating electric fields, can also be given concurrently with adjuvant temozolomide. At recurrence, there is no standard of care; however, surgery, radiotherapy, and systemic therapy with chemotherapy or bevacizumab are all potential options, depending on the patient's circumstances. Supportive and palliative care remain important considerations throughout the disease course in the multimodality approach to management. The recently revised classification of glioblastoma based on molecular profiling, notably isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status, is a result of enhanced understanding of the underlying pathogenesis of disease. There is a clear need for better therapeutic options, and there have been substantial efforts exploring immunotherapy and precision oncology approaches. In contrast to other solid tumors, however, biological factors, such as the blood‐brain barrier and the unique tumor and immune microenvironment, represent significant challenges in the development of novel therapies. Innovative clinical trial designs with biomarker‐enrichment strategies are needed to ultimately improve the outcome of patients with glioblastoma.

Authors: Sales Eduardo Ferreira , Baldi Adriana , Queiroz Renan Batista
Published: June 2020

O estado do Espírito Santo é o maior produtor nacional de café conilon (Coffea canephora), cuja
produção é concentrada em monocultivos, o que traz reflexos negativos para a fauna edáfica e para a
funcionalidade que esses organismos desempenham no solo. O objetivo deste trabalho foi estudar o
efeito do consórcio do cafeeiro conilon com seringueira, pimenta-do-reino e cacaueiro sobre a meso e
macrofauna edáfica no norte do Espírito Santo. Para isso, avaliaram-se um sistema agroflorestal (SAF) e
um monocultivo (MONO). As amostragens foram realizadas com armadilhas “Pitfall” em nove pontos
equidistantes. Durante 13 meses de amostragens, 84.486 indivíduos foram capturados, sendo 65% no
MONO e 35% no SAF. O SAF apresentou maior diversidade de Shannon (H’) e equitabilidade de Pielou
(J’) para a comunidade de invertebrados do solo, com valores de 0,68 e 0,55, respectivamente. A
abundância da macrofauna de diplópodes e isópodes apresentou maiores índices populacionais
observados no período chuvoso e os menores no período seco. A análise multivariada de agrupamento
mostrou que, no período seco, o SAF e o MONO formaram um grupo com 92% de similaridade.

Published: June 2020

A família das palmeiras, Arecaceae, representa um dos principais braços evolutivos das
monocotiledôneas e está globalmente distribuída, apresentando alta adaptação a condições
edáficas e climáticas. A ampla diversidade de aproveitamentos torna as palmeiras um dos
principais grupos em importância para os seres humanos. No Brasil, as palmeiras estão presentes
em todos os biomas e, atualmente, são aceitos 37 gêneros e 288 espécies, sendo 123 endêmicas.
Para o estado de Santa Catarina são aceitos oito gêneros e 11 espécies: Astrocaryum
aculeatissimum (Schott) Burret, Attalea dubia (Mart.) Burret, Bactris setosa Mart., Butia
catarinensis Noblick & Lorenzi, B. eriospatha (Mart. ex Drude) Becc., Euterpe edulis Mart.,
Geonoma elegans Mart., G. gamiova Barb.Rodr., G. schottiana Mart., Syagrus romanzoffiana
(Cham.) Glassman e Trithrinax acanthocoma Drude, no entanto, desde o ano de 1974, essa família
não recebe atualizações taxonômicas. A partir dessa deficiência de dados atualizados foram
propostos oito capítulos que contemplassem as principais temáticas sobre as palmeiras em Santa
Catarina. Inicialmente foi analisada, por meio de ferramentas bibliométricas, a produção científica
referente as palmeiras nativas do Estado, em que foi observado o frequente interesse por Euterpe
edulis, além de um panorama favorável de publicações. Posteriormente, foram realizados
levantamentos atualizados e completos, chave dicotômica para as espécies, descrições,
tratamento taxonômico, ilustrações, comentários sobre os aspectos ecológicos e ocorrência
natural das espécies nativas de palmeiras nativas em Santa Catarina. Em seguida, os fatores
determinantes para a composição e riqueza de espécies de palmeiras foram examinados com
dados provenientes do Inventário Florístico Florestal de Santa Catarina (IFFSC). Ainda, com os
dados do IFFSC, foram analisadas a distribuição das espécies de palmeiras arborescentes e
arbustivas no Estado. Subsequentemente, com o objetivo de expandir o conhecimento sobre as
palmeiras do sul do Estado foi investigado o processo de extração de espécies de palmeiras e as
diferentes formas de uso pela população do entorno do Parque Estadual da Serra Furada (PAESF). Além disso, as características estruturais da comunidade de palmeiras do PAESF, relacionadas às
atividades antrópicas, foram analisadas. Finalmente, com base nos dados obtidos nos capítulos
anteriores foi possível avaliar o status de conservação das espécies de palmeiras catarinenses, o
que revelou dez espécies com algum grau de ameaça, de acordo com os critérios da IUCN.

Published: May 2020

Women's rights based on a patriarchal system which questioned the different biological conditions of women and men are the will of nature (nature), so things such as destiny and nature cannot be changed. Reproductive health is a state of perfect health both physically, mentally and socially and is not merely free from disease or disability in all aspects related to the reproductive system, its functions and processes. Reproductive health problems that occurred in Muara District in 2018, the total coverage of Ante Natal Care visits was 91 out of 299 pregnant women (30.43%). The achievement of use of contraception in 2018 out of 3476 the number of fertile age couples was 1150 people (33.08%) who used family planning and the choice of delivery assistance chosen by the community by a dukun berakak (sibaso). This study aims to explore in depth the perceptions of women's experiences in obtaining the right to determine the number of children and the right to attend the family planning program. This research is a qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. Sampling in this study was conducted by purposive sampling technique. From the suitability and adequacy of the data obtained, there were six informants who participated in this study. The main informant was a Batak woman. Data was obtained through in-depth interviews supplemented with field notes. The results showed that there were a number of women's reproductive health rights that had not yet been fulfilled, namely the right to determine the number of children and birth spacing and the right to attend the KB program. Patriarchal culture influences the position of women in society, women do not know their reproductive health rights. Researcher's suggestion in this study is that health workers have an important role in improving the degree of reproductive health, it is necessary to conduct cross-program and cross-sectoral collaboration with local community leaders to promote women's reproductive rights, because the community is easier to accept input and opinions given by the king custom.

O derramamento e extravasamento destacam-se como eventos adversos raros e importantes na quimioterapia devido aos seus riscos. Este estudo objetiva determinar as incidências e caracterizar esses eventos, considerando seus determinantes, perfil dos pacientes e o manejo conforme o protocolo institucional. Trata-se de uma pesquisa retrospectiva documental, descritiva e transversal, com abordagem quantitativa, realizada em uma instituição de Belém-Pará. A coleta de dados abrangeu o período de 2012 a 2019 subsidiada por meio da leitura dos livros de ordem e ocorrência, prontuários dos pacientes e preenchimento de instrumento próprio. Os dados foram estruturados no Microsoft Excel 2019 para análise descritiva e estatisticamente com Teste de Qui-quadrado com p valor < 0,001 e Teste de kolmogorov-smirnov. Foram analisados 26 casos de derramamento e 41 de extravasamento em 55 pacientes. As incidências de derramamento e extravasamento foram 0,08 e 0,13, respectivamente. As drogas antineoplásicas irritantes foram mais frequentes em casos de derramamento e as vesicantes tiveram maior índice nos eventos de extravasamento, com destaque ao Paclitaxel. O seguimento do protocolo institucional foi majoritário, contudo, as medidas não foram registradas em detalhes nos prontuários. O diferencial desta pesquisa se deu pela análise conjunta dos eventos de extravasamento e derramamento, evidenciando sua concomitância. Ressalta-se que os riscos desses EAs devem ser monitorados e devidamente notificados, principalmente pelos profissionais de enfermagem, visando a qualidade na assistência à saúde, bem como a segurança dos profissionais, pacientes e familiares.

Published: June 2020

Dentre as técnicas de conservação de alimentos, pode-se destacar a secagem. No entanto, esta é uma operação que demanda um alto consumo energético e pode ser viabilizada pela aplicação de uma fonte energética alternativa não poluente e inesgotável, como a energia solar. Um equipamento aplicado a secagem que opera a partir da captação de raios solares é o forno solar. A partir de objetos refletores ocorre a reflexão dos raios solares para o interior desse secador, proporcionando o aumento da temperatura do ar contido no forno, para posterior aplicação como ar de secagem. A fim de melhor entender o funcionamento deste secador, diversos autores vêm estudando-o através de simulações computacionais. Considerando o exposto, o objetivo desse trabalho é realizar um estudo experimental e numérico do aquecimento de um forno solar. O experimento consistiu na exposição do forno aos raios solares e registro contínuo dos valores de temperatura ambiente e em diferentes posições no equipamento. O modelo matemático utilizado é constituído por balanços de energia individuais para cada componente do secador, sendo que o cálculo dos coeficientes de transferência de calor na forma convectiva e por radiação foram baseados em trabalhos da literatura. O modelo foi implementado no software livre Scilab®, utilizando o solucionador lsoda do pacote ODEPACK e os experimentos foram desenvolvidos na UFTM em Uberaba – MG. Os resultados mostraram que a abordagem de modelagem empregada foi eficiente na predição do comportamento térmico do secador, que atingiu temperaturas adequadas à secagem (Ts* = 82oC)  apenas com utilização de energia solar.

O derrame de petróleo ocorrido recentemente no litoral brasileiro serve como um alerta para que sejam pesquisas que contemplam processos e produtos biotecnológicos para limpeza de ambientes marinhos. Diante disso, esse trabalho tem o objetivo de comparar a utilização de fibras de coco residuais ( Cocos nucifera L. ) na natureza, pré-tratados com Líquido Iônico Prótico (LIP) [2-HEA] [Ac] (tratamento inovador) e por mercerização / acetilação (tratamento tradicional) como biossorvente de óleo derramado no ambiente marinho em uma hidrodinâmica em escala laboratorial. O estudo da cinética e o equilíbrio da adsorção foram realizados para determinar ou limitar o mecanismo da adsorção, bem como a capacidade máxima de adsorção do petróleo para as fibras de coco estudadas. Foram realizadas as caracterizações das fibras usando MEV e FITR, e os testes de cinética e equilíbrio de sorção com petróleo da Bacia de Campos e salina de água. Foi possível observar que é necessário um tempo mínimo de 5 minutos entre contato ou adsorvente e adsorvente para ocorrer uma biossorção. As fibras tratadas com LIP (4,63 g / g) têm maior capacidade de sorção, uma fibra in natura(3,62 g / g) menor capacidade e fibra com tratamento de mercerização / acetilação (4,26 g / g) tem sorção com valores intermediários. O modelo cinético que melhor se ajustou aos dados experimentais foi a pseudo-segunda ordem, registrou a quimiossorção e a etapa limitante da adsorção. O modelo de equilíbrio de sorção escolhido foi Sips, determinando a adsorção em multicamada (Freundlich) com baixas temperaturas de petróleo e monocamada (Langmuir) com altas variações. Sas de base com Resultados, PODE-SE AFIRMAR that como Fibras de coco ( Cocos nucifera L .) Tratadas possuem Maior CAPACIDADE de adsorver petróleo fazer that como Fibras in natura , e como Fibras tratadas com LIP [2-HEA] [Ac] possuem maior capacidade de sorção, dentre as disponíveis, para uso em derrames de petróleo.

Published: June 2020

A articulação temporomandibular (ATM) certamente é uma das mais complexas do corpo. Desde seu funcionamento, classificação até a origem das disfunções existentes que a envolvem. A origem das disfunções temporomandibulares (DTM) é multifatorial e complexa, os estudos recentes apontam uma relação relevante entre problemas psicológicos e a DTM, não como fator direto, mas corrobora com outros ou funciona de gatilhos para sintomas e sinais. Na rotina clínica os pacientes com reclamações relacionadas a ATM vêm acompanhados de algum nível de depressão e/ou ansiedade, tornando o tratamento ainda mais abrangente, sendo necessário o cirurgião-dentista tratar o paciente como um todo e não apenas a ATM ou boca, encaminhando para outros profissionais, sendo um tratamento multiprofissional. No presente trabalho foram utilizadas palavras-chaves como ‘’disfunção temporomandibular’’, ‘’depressão’’ e ‘’ansiedade’’ nas bases de dados PubMed, BVS e Scielo. A DTM ainda é muito complexa na literatura, principalmente determinar os fatores que a causam exatamente em cada paciente, de tal forma o objetivo do trabalho é contribuir com os estudos nesta área, buscando uma maior elucidação do tema para buscar novas formas de tratamento.

The distribution of localization measures of chaotic eigenstates in the stadium billiard
Authors: Batistic B. , Lozej Č , Robnik M.
Published: June 2020

The localization measures A (based on the information entropy) of localized chaotic eigenstates in the Poincaré-Husimi representation have a distribution on a compact interval [0;A0], which is well approximated by the beta distribution, based on our extensive numerical calculations. The system under study is the Bunimovich' stadium billiard, which is a classically ergodic system, also fully chaotic (positive Lyapunov exponent), but in the regime of a slightly distorted circle billiard (small shape parameter ") the diffusion in the momentum space is very slow. The parameter α = tH/tT , where tH and tT are the Heisenberg time and the classical transport time (diffusion time), respectively, is the important control parameter of the system, as in all quantum systems with the discrete energy spectrum. The measures A and their distributions have been calculated for a large number of ε and eigenenergies. The dependence of the standard deviation σ on α is analyzed, as well as on the spectral parameter β (level repulsion exponent of the relevant Brody level spacing distribution). The paper is a continuation of our recent paper (B. Batistić, Č. Lozej and M. Robnik, Nonlinear Phenomena in Complex Systems 21, 225 (2018)), where the spectral statistics and validity of the Brody level spacing distribution has been studied for the same system, namely the dependence of β and of the mean value < A > on α.
QFT in Flat Space and Measurability II. Perturbation Theory for a Scalar Field Model
Authors: Shalyt-Margolin A.
Published: June 2020

In the present paper the quantum theory for a scalar field model has been considered by the author in terms of the measurability concept introduced in his previous works. This theory is studied within the scope of the lattice approach. It is shown that the perturbation theory for such a model at the energies E << Ep leads to the completely finite contributions into the loop amplitudes of all physical processes, and also to finite values of both bare and experimental (i.e. renormalized) quantities associated with the above-mentioned energy region. Besides, it is demonstrated that a continuum limit of the lattice model includes no ultra-violet divergences.
A modified Efficient Manifold Ranking Algorithm for Large Database Image Retrieval
Authors: Van Quy Hoang , Van Huy Tran , Hoang Huy Ngo , Van Tuyet Dao , Ablameyko Sergey
Published: June 2020

The efficient manifold ranking (EMR) algorithm is used quite effectively in content-based image retrieval (CBIR) for large image databases where images are represented by multiple low-level features to describe about the color, texture and shape. The EMR ranking algorithm requires steps to determine anchor points of the image database by using the k-means hard clustering and the accuracy of the ranking depends strongly on the selected anchor points. This paper describes a new result based on a modified Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) clustering algorithm to select anchor points in the large database in order to increase the efficiency of manifold ranking specially for the large database cases.

Authors: Wuthisatian Dr. Phuvadon (Ben)
Published: May 2020

This paper investigates the measure of FX liquidity and determinants of the change in FX liquidity. Using 20 cross currency exchange rates over the spanning period of 1999 to 2016, we find that funding constraints and global risks are responsible for the change in FX liquidity. The magnitudes of both G7 and emerging volatility index are offsetting each other in all the regression models indicating that FX investors take diversification trading strategies to diversify their portfolios. The financial crisis provides evidence that the more financial constraint issues contribute to the change in FX market liquidity more than non-financial crisis period. Extending to return predictability, we find that the average variance contributes the most for currency predictability more than other explanatory variables.
Housing Markets and Bank Stability: Evidence from European Countries After the 2008 Financial Crisis
Authors: Chen Tsaubin
Published: May 2020

The house price bank stability relationship was empirically investigated based on 2008–2018 data from 24 European countries. Since the 2008 financial crisis, house price has been an important indicator for assessing the state of the European economy and bank stability. Herein, the author argues that the increase in house prices in European countries may improve the nonperforming loan (NPL) ratios and banking stability may increase. The dynamic panel data analysis results in this study revealed the existence of a negative NPL ratio–house price index relationship in both the long and short run. In conclusion, after the 2008 financial crisis, European housing markets were essential to ensuring banking stability.
New Sincerity andFrances Hain Light of Sartre: A Proposal for an Existentialist Conceptual Framework
Authors: Dulk Allard den
Published: June 2020

There is a growing discourse on “new sincerity,” and related terms like “quirky” and “metamodernism,” as a movement or sensibility in contemporary cinema developing from the late 1990s onward, exemplified by the work of filmmakers such as Wes Anderson and Charlie Kaufman. However, what this new concept means in the context of cinema has so far remained under-defined and requires further philosophical analysis. This article provides such an analysis by offering a reconceptualization of Jean-Paul Sartre's existentialist-phenomenological notions of good faith and sincerity, which will be connected to developments in film and elaborated in relation to Frances Ha (Noah Baumbach, 2012). I propose, against Sartre's own preference for the problematic term “authenticity,” to understand sincerity as the reflective resumption of good faith's pre-reflective acceptance of human-reality. This conception of sincerity as reflective allows us to accurately understand the combination of self-awareness and affirmation that characterizes new sincerity cinema: its self-awareness does not serve the postmodernist strategy of endless self-ironization; instead, its portrayals affirm the meaningfulness of its filmic reality, while also being aware of film as a medium. An analysis of Frances Ha illustrates how this concept of sincerity might be seen to function both on the level of story world, characters and themes, and on that of narrative structure and audio-visual style, thereby showing how we can meaningfully speak of sincerity in and of film.
Deadly Barks: Acousmaticity and Post-Animality in Lucrecia Martel'sLa ciénaga
Authors: Avidad Andrea
Published: June 2020

Acousmatic sound is often defined as a sound whose source is unseen, that is, in terms of a separation between the senses of hearing and seeing. Discussions about the acousmatic have generally focused on the ontological relation between the sonic effect and the visually unavailable source that produces it. This article examines the function of acousmatic sound in Argentine auteur Lucrecia Martel's La ciénaga ( The Swamp, 2001), arguing that the film's distinctive employment of acousmatic sound and acousmatic listening constitutes a strategy of disruption, challenging the traditional concept of the “animal” – an ideological and oppressive notion produced by dominant Western philosophical discourse. My reading gives close attention to what seems to be the barking of an unseen dog and its effects on human listeners, contending that, as the semiotic stability of the figure of the dog gradually erodes within Martel's cinematic territory, listening to the canine voice becomes an unsettling sensory-cognitive experience; the sound of the barks presents an irresolvable epistemic problem. I draw on Jacques Derrida's late writings on nonhuman animals, borrowing the term animot, to argue that Martel's film brings into audibility an animality irreducible plural: an alterity exceeding logocentric economies of knowledge. The film's experimental aesthetics and construction of narrative, I suggest, are concerned with perceiving and making perception itself perceptible, while exposing the limits of human perception – impassable limits marked by an animality which gradually withstands conceptual domestication. Through its use of acousmatic listening, La ciénaga expands our perception of ecological ontology.

Data on sorghum genetic diversity in Senegal are missing despite its importance in the food and feed in the country. In order to contribute to the sustainable in situ management of sorghum germplasm, we investigated its genetic diversity and structure in its marginal production areas. Investigations were focused on Thiès, Diourbel and Kédougou regions where sorghum landraces have been less investigated and genetic information on landraces is unknown. A total of 148 sorghum accessions representative of landraces used in production systems have been sampled and analyzed with 30 microsatellite markers. A total of 138 alleles have been recorded. The number of alleles per locus varied from 3 (7 loci) to 8 (3 loci). The observed heterozygosity varied from 0 to 0.62. The low genetic distance (0.12) was recorded between Thiès and Diourbel populations and the highest distance (0.22) between Thiès and Kédougou populations. Dendrogram obtained according to Neighbour joining classification model allowed the classification of sorghum accessions into three main groups. The Genetic structure is not function to the regions indicating that landraces are not specific to a region. The results are a first step toward the sustainable in situ management of genetic resources. Data on the whole range of existing diversity of sorghum in Senegal is an important key for its germplasm management; so, the genotyping must be extended to accessions from the whole country.
Sex vs Gender: Are We there Yet? A Biological Location for Gender, not Sex.
Authors: Tannett Bobbi
Published: May 2020

Research to date has left unexplained what may seem indefinable – gender identity. This article synthesizes important research that has not previously presented a case for a biological location of gender in the human phenotype. While gonadal sex and sexual orientation are accepted as emanating from genetic and hormonal templates, gender’s existence currently has so far emanated from a nebulous ‘somewhere’ in the brain. Recent hypotheses have argued there is no natural dichotomy of gendered behavior and proposed a merging of otherwise distinct categories for sex and gender into a mosaic of sex/gender. However, this seems to detour around non-physical behavior relevant to reproduction. This paper makes an original case for non-physical behaviors relevant to reproduction as the neurophysiological sense of gender and specifically centred within the reproductive axis. This fits in well with current understandings of genetic, hormonal, and environmental influences on identity diversity.
NAGI METHODS OF MAP QUALITY EVALUATION
Authors: Zomrawi Nagi
Published: May 2020

Map quality evaluation is one of the important tasks that can face map specialists in particular and map users in general. Numerical description of the map product to justify its quality was studied by the author who has developed before, a new approach of map quality evaluation that, successfully applied globally by different researchers. Here, in this research work, a new formula has been developed to numerically evaluate map product. The evaluation base on computing a satisfaction factor suggested to be called Weighted Nagi Factor. This new Weighted Nagi Method, successfully applied to a sample map product of Khartoum state survey authority. Results proved that the new weighted method is practicable to numerically describe a map product taking into account the importance of each criteria adopted according to a particular application. The method is also simple and easy to be applied by any stakeholder, map quality evaluator or map user.
Assessment of Regional Climate Model Simulations of the Katabatic Boundary Layer Structure over Greenland
Authors: Heinemann Günther
Published: June 2020

The parameterization of the boundary layer is a challenge for regional climate models of the Arctic. In particular, the stable boundary layer (SBL) over Greenland, being the main driver for substantial katabatic winds over the slopes, is simulated differently by different regional climate models or using different parameterizations of the same model. However, verification data sets with high-resolution profiles of the katabatic wind are rare. In the present paper, detailed aircraft measurements of profiles in the katabatic wind and automatic weather station data during the experiment KABEG (Katabatic wind and boundary-layer front experiment around Greenland) in April and May 1997 are used for the verification of the regional climate model COSMO-CLM (CCLM) nested in ERA-Interim reanalyses. CCLM is used in a forecast mode for the whole Arctic with 15 km resolution and is run in the standard configuration of SBL parameterization and with modified SBL parameterization. In the modified version, turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) production and the transfer coefficients for turbulent fluxes in the SBL are reduced, leading to higher stability of the SBL. This leads to a more realistic representation of the daily temperature cycle and of the SBL structure in terms of temperature and wind profiles for the lowest 200 m.
VEGF Upregulates EGFR Expression to Stimulate Chemotactic Behaviors in the rMC-1 Model of Müller Glia
Authors: Peña Juan S. , Vazquez Maribel
Published: June 2020

Progressive vision loss in adults has become increasingly prevalent worldwide due to retinopathies associated with aging, genetics, and epigenetic factors that damage the retinal microvasculature. Insufficient supply of oxygen and/or nutrients upregulates factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF), which can induce abnormal angiogenesis and damage the structural arrangement of the retinal blood barrier (BRB). Müller glia (MG) regulate the diffusion of essential compounds across the BRB and respond to retinal insults via reactive gliosis, which includes cell hypertrophy, migration, and/or proliferation near areas of elevated VEGF concentration. Increasing concentrations of exogenous VEGF, upregulated by retinal pigmented epithelium cells, and endogenous epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R) stimulation in MG, implicated in MG proliferative and migratory behavior, often lead to progressive and permanent vision loss. Our project examined the chemotactic responses of the rMC-1 cell line, a mammalian MG model, toward VEGF and EGF signaling fields in transwell assays, and within respective concentration gradient fields produced in the glia line (gLL) microfluidic system previously described by our group. rMC-1 receptor expression in defined ligand fields was also evaluated using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and immunocytochemical staining. Results illustrate dramatic increases in rMC-1 chemotactic responses towards EGF gradient fields after pre-treatment with VEGF. In addition, qPCR illustrated significant upregulation of EGF-R upon VEGF pre-treatment, which was higher than that induced by its cognate ligand, EGF. These results suggest interplay of molecular pathways between VEGF and EGF-R that have remained understudied in MG but are significant to the development of effective anti-VEGF treatments needed for a variety of retinopathies.
