SELF-LOVE AND SELF-ACCEPTANCE: REDEFINING IDEAL BEAUTY THROUGH ITS REPRESENTATION IN SCARS TO YOUR BEAUTIFUL
Authors: Rosida Ida , Saputri Dinni Yulia
Published: November 2019

The ideal beauty has a significant impact on social life. Those who feel their body doesn’t meet the idealize body view, some might have body dissatisfaction and lower body appreciation. This study aims to explore a broader definition and understanding of the beauty as it is represented in Scars to Your Beautiful, a song by Alessia Cara, both its lyric and music video. Using content analysis and supported by the concept of the figure of Speech, cinematography, and representation by Stuart Hall completed the investigation on this beauty ideal. The result shows that Scars to Your Beautiful strive to redefine the term of beauty which cannot be determined only by certain criteria such as having a thin body, white skin, flawless and addressed to women only, but beauty reaches a broader definition in all shapes, sizes, colors, even the gender. These findings highlight the importance of self-love and self-acceptance in the social context. Keywords: beauty ideals, representation of beauty, body dissatisfaction
THE NARRATIVE DISCOURSE OF INTERETHNIC BEHAVIOURS AND RELATIONS: THE CONTESTATION OF ETHNIC IDENTITY
Authors: Widyastuti Susana
Published: November 2019

Drawing from Discursive Social Psychology (DSP) (Potter, 1998; Potter Edwards, 2001), this study is concerned with how attitudes, behaviours, and identity can be observed through language in use or discourse. Focusing on the narratives of the marginalized Chinese Indonesians, it particularly aims at revealing behaviours in coping with the majority group, and how such behaviours may in turn shape intergroup relations and ethnic identity. The data were in the form of narratives of personal experience of Chinese Indonesians collected through interview which were then scrutinized through in-depth analysis within their socio-political context. It has been revealed that in dealing with unequal power relations, two behaviours are embraced – convergence and divergence – which are manifested in various discursive and social practices of adapting to the wider society and maintaining aspects of ethnic identity. Any choice of behaviours can have consequences for interethnic relations and ethnic identity. The ideological power exercised by different regimes has obviously constructed ethnic identity and thus made it historically and ideologically contested. The contestation is discursively articulated through the negotiation between ethnic and national identity, the labelling practice using the words Cina and Tionghoa, and the perpetuation of stereotypes associated with the ethnic group. Keywords:  ethnicity, discourse, identity, social-psychology

The structure and physicochemical mechanisms of interaction of bone tissue with titanium implants in tuberculous osteitis have been studied by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray phase analysis, IR spectroscopy and thermal analysis methods. It has been found that the physiological regeneration of bone tissue is accompanied by growth of organic components, embrittlement of the mineral phase of the bone matrix, and its fine disintegration during the treatment of tuberculosis osteitis. The presence of titanium implants during a physiologically normal state contributes to the activation of apatite phase synthesis in the regenerating bone. The main mechanism of implantation osteogenesis in tuberculous osteitis is the formation of the inorganic phase of hydroxyapatite mainly in the areas of destruction of the titanium alloy.
Using Social Media to Investigate Geographic and Macro-Level Variations in LGBTQ Patient Experiences (Preprint)
Authors: Hswen Yulin , Zhang Amanda , Sewalk Kara , Tuli Gaurav , Brownstein John S , Hawkins Jared
Published: November 2019

BACKGROUND

Discrimination in the healthcare system contributes to worse health outcomes among lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) patients.

OBJECTIVE

To examine disparities in patient experience among LGBTQ persons using social media data.

METHODS

We collected patient experience data from Twitter from February 2013 to February 2017 in the United States. We compared sentiment of patient experience tweets between Twitter users who self-identified as LGBTQ and non-LGBTQ. The effect of state-level partisan identity on patient experience sentiment and differences between LGBTQ users and non-LGBTQ users were analyzed.

RESULTS

We observed lower patient experience sentiment among 13,689 LGBTQ users compared to 1,362,395 non-LGBTQ users. Increasing state-level liberal political identification was associated with higher patient experience sentiment among all users but had stronger effects for LGBTQ users.

CONCLUSIONS

Our findings highlight that social media data can yield insights about patient experience for LGBTQ persons and suggest that state-level socio-political environment influences patient experience for this group. Efforts are needed to reduce disparities in patient care for LGBTQ persons while taking into context the effect of political climate on these inequities.

Authors: Khetrapal Pramit , Ang Kar Mun , Chau Marisa , Ó Scanaill Pádraig , Mcalister John , Kelly John D
Published: November 2019

BACKGROUND

Fitness trackers are increasingly popular consumer electronic devices which provide a rich source of precise individual health data, and are increasingly used in healthcare research.

OBJECTIVE

This systematic review aims to provide an overview of all patient-centred research studies that used fitness trackers.

METHODS

MEDLINE and Web of Science databases (up to May 2019) were searched for manuscripts reporting the results of original research using fitness trackers and recruiting patients with any/all medical conditions are included: a total of 63 studies using 41 different models of fitness trackers. Search results were reviewed by two appraisers independently in accordance with the PRISMA statement. Relevant risk-of-bias assessments were performed in all prospective studies.

RESULTS

Study sizes varied, with a median recruitment of 45 patients (IQR 29-147). Twenty-three randomised controlled trials (RCTs) were identified, of which nine recruited patients with metabolic syndrome or associated conditions with the aim of lifestyle modification. The RCTs did not agree in their conclusions regarding the benefit of using fitness trackers for lifestyle modification. In the remaining 40 studies, 6 were prospective case-control studies, and the remainder were a mix of cohort (21), cross-sectional (8), qualitative (3) and retrospective (2) studies. Fitbit was the commonest device manufacturer, with 27 (42.9%) studies using their products.

CONCLUSIONS

This review demonstrates the exponential rise of fitness trackers being used in healthcare studies over the last five years, which is likely to continue as fitness trackers and smart-watches offer new healthcare features. Studies reported in this review are of variable quality, and more robust studies to examine the place of fitness trackers in healthcare are necessary – and urgently needed – as their potential to provide objective clinical context is undeniable.

Factors Affecting Sustainability of Agriculture Land Management in Sarangan Magetan Indonesia
Authors: Fajri Amida I. , Sakurai Ryo , D. Pramono Retno W.
Published: November 2019

The Satoyama Agriculture Development Tools (SADT) is a widely used set of measures used across the globe to assess the sustainability of agriculture land management. While the SADT only use three dimensions: environmental, economic, and social factors, a fourth dimension, namely, institutional factors, is considered important to understand the authority and ability to facilitate sustainable development in a comprehensive, harmonious, and balanced manner. This study adds an institutional dimension to the SADT framework to evaluate the sustainability of agriculture land management in Magetan Regency, Indonesia. Specifically, we compare the perceptions of farmers and government officials regarding current agriculture land management by conducting a questionnaire survey and semi-structured interviews. The results reveal that there are gaps between the perceptions of farmers and government officials, especially regarding the environmental and socio-economic dimensions of land management. Government officials tend to believe that the environment, including keystone species, is well protected while farmers disagree. The Satoyama Evaluation shows that Sarangan Village is viewed as “Satoyama Like” from the point of view of government officials but appears to be “In Transition” based on farmer perceptions. Adding an institutional factor provides fruitful information on the perception gap between farmers and government officials in terms of local government conflict management performance.

A PRESPECTIVE STUDY ON APOBEC PROTEIN FAMILY
Authors: GEJALAKSHMI S. , HARIKRISHNAN N. , KOMAL S.
Published: November 2019

Apobec is an apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide-like" is a family of deaminases. It has two types of APOBEC enzymes n-terminal of apobec enzyme and C-terminal of APOBEC enzyme. N-terminal domain is catalytic domain and C-terminal domain is a pseudo catalytic domain. Pathogen and cellular genome undergo mutation by human DNA cytosine to uracil deaminases. Three subtypes of APOBEC3D. APOBEC3F, APOBEC3G and APOBEC3H restrict human deficiency virus-1. Two APOBEC enzymes are the sources of somatic mutagenesis in cancer cells that drive tumor evolution and manifest clinically as theraphy resistance. This review of the APOBEC family will focus on an open question in regulation, namely what role the interactions of these proteins with RNA have in editing substrate recognition or allosteric regulation of DNA mutagenic and host-defense activities.

Authors: ABERATHNA ACHINI , MORRISSEY HANA , BALL PATRICK , ZAWAHIR SHUKRY
Published: November 2019

Objective: Anecdotal evidence suggested that antibiotics are frequently used in the Emergency Treatment Units in Sri Lanka, mostly for the respiratory tract, soft tissue or urinary tract infections. This study aimed to describe the utilization patterns of antibiotics in terms of most common type, indication and associated direct cost in ETU at the Teaching Hospital Karapitiya, Sri Lanka.

Methods: In this study, utilization patterns and the direct cost of antibiotics in an emergency treatment unit was evaluated by checking the bed-head tickets of all patients admitted to the unit from 1/5/16 to 15/5/16. Out of the 414 bed-head tickets checked 156 patients were receiving antibiotic treatment. Socio-demographic characteristics were analyzed. The prices of antibiotics in SriLankan government hospitals were taken from the hospital medical supply division price list. Data were analyzed by Microsoft Excel™.

Results: In this study, 45.5% (out of 156 patients) were aged between 61-80years. The most used antibiotic was amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (18.1%) and clarithromycin (15.5%). Generic antibiotics were used for most patients (95.58%). Fixed-dose combinations were used in 18.5% of cases, including amoxicillin/clavulanic acid and piperacillin/tazobactam. The common indications for prescribing antibiotics were respiratory tract infections (31.2%) and soft tissues injuries (12.1%).

Conclusion: This study revealed that there is apparent overuse of antibiotics and reveals that antibiotic stewardship programme could reduce antibiotic use, antibiotic resistance, and cost. Improved understanding of the rationale for antibiotic use would contribute optimising their use. Further studies are needed to establish the extent of sub-optimal prescribing of antibiotics in Sri Lankan hospitals.
Minería a gran escala, pluralismo territorial y contención:
Authors: Van Teijlingen Karolien
Published: November 2019

Over the last decade, Ecuador has become a new frontier for large-scale mining expansion and this article aims to analyze the territorial transformations and contentious politics that are induced by this new capitalist activity. It therefore presents a case-study of Ecuador’s first large-scale mining project, the Mirador copper mine in the Cordillera del Cóndor in the Amazon region. Using analytical insights from the current debates on territory, specifically the recently coined concept of “territorial pluralism”, the article shows the multiple historical territorialization processes that shaped the Cordillera del Cóndor and describes the interruptive reconfiguration introduced by the mining project. It furthermore examines the visions and strategies of local resistance group. Based on this analysis, I conclude that this particular approach to territory contributes to our comprehension of mining conflicts by revealing the distinct forms of understanding and relating to space and nature, and the power relations that constitute them. I moreover argue that territorial pluralism helps to explain how the repertoires of contention and alternatives that surge from these struggles are structured.

К проблеме обобщённых характеров
Authors: Кузнецов Валентин Николаевич , Матвеева Ольга Андреевна
Published: November 2019

Проблема обобщённых характеров заключается в решении задачи Ю. В. Линника, поставленной им в 1949 году, относительно аналитического продолжения как целых функций на комплексную плоскость одного класса рядов Дирихле и в решении гипотезы Н. Г. Чудакова, выдвинутой им в 1950 году о том, что любой конечнозначный числовой характер, отличный от нуля почти на всех простых числах и имеющий ограниченную сумматорную функцию, является характером Дирихле. Позднее такие характеры получили название неглавных обобщённых характеров. Коэффициенты рядов Дирихле в задаче Ю. В Линника также определялись неглавными обобщёнными характерами.

Кроме Ю. В. Линника и Н. Г. Чудакова решениями проблемы обобщённых характеров занимались такие известные математики как В. Г. Спринджук, К. А. Родосский, Б.~М.~Бредихин и многие другие, но проблема оставалась открытой.

Последние годы авторы разработали аппроксимационный подход, основанный на приближении в правой полуплоскости комплексной плоскости функций, заданных рядами Дирихле, полиномами Дирихле, в задаче аналитического продолжения рядов Дирихле с мультипликативными коэффициентами. Ранее этот подход позволил авторам решить задачу Ю. В. Линника, а в данной работе приводится решение гипотезы Н. Г. Чудакова.

A BIOGEOGRAFIA E A TEMÁTICA DA DIVERSIDADE CULTURAL NA EDUCAÇÃO SUPERIOR: CONTRIBUIÇÕES DA ECOLOGIA DE SABERES NA FORMAÇÃO DE PROFESSORES(AS) DE GEOGRAFIA
Authors: Silva Junior Ivan De Matos e , Almeida Rosiléia Oliveira de
Published: November 2019

A formação de professores(as) para a diversidade cultural tem sido uma prerrogativa curricular que vem sendo lembrada com a obrigatoriedade da Lei 11.645/08, que busca, por sua vez, dar conta da história e cultura afro-brasileira e indígena. Na Geografia, essa temática encontra aderência nos estudos da geografia humana, enquanto que na geografia física, especialmente na biogeografia, o tema da diversidade cultural não tem sido adotado a contento, por conta do seu comprometimento com hermenêuticas cientificistas, em que a dimensão cultural estabelece relação de sinonímia com a ideia de um homem universal, expressa geralmente a partir das ações antropogênicas. Desse modo, o presente artigo visa apresentar contribuições teóricas da ecologia de saberes para a formação de professores(as) de Geografia, no âmbito das temáticas biogeográficas referendadas na diversidade cultural. Diante desse contexto, o presente artigo que é um dos resultados de pesquisa que vendo sendo realizada em nível de doutoramento, constitui-se como uma reflexão teórico-empírica que emergiu durante ação extensionista envolvendo estudantes, egressos e professores(as) de Geografia e Biologia. Dentre alguns resultados do estudo, reconheceu-se que a biogeografia tem forte potencial em  incorporar a temática da diversidade cultural, a partir do processo de reconhecimento e visibilização de saberes e experiências dos povos originários que apresentam formas particulares de compreensão do mundo vivo em sua dimensão espaço-temporal; ajuda na superação do cientificismo no ensino de biogeografia na formação inicial e continuada de professores(as), ao mesmo tempo que assinala a importância da afirmação desses saberes como forma de superação do epistemicídio e do etnocídio.

La Omalgia tiene muchas etiologías, entre las que se encuentran lesiones del manguito rotador, como causa sola o acompañada de otras comorbilidades. La ruptura del musculo supraespinoso es una de las principales causas de esta, y su lesión resulta no sola en dolor, sino también en limitación funcional. La historia natural de las roturas del manguitorotador no siempre es predecible, por un lado, muchos son asintomáticos y responden bien al manejo conservador. Por otro lado, existen estudios que sugieren que algunos desgarros que eran previamente asintomáticos se vuelven sintomáticos y es la manifestación de dolor uno de los criterios más utilizado para el manejo quirúrgico1.La patología del manguito rotador es muy frecuente, estudios anatómicos en cadáveres encontraron ruptura hasta el 50% de los casos, sugiriendo que puede ser parte del proceso de envejecimiento, aumentando de forma constante después de la quinta década de la vida. Otros estudios mostraron función normal aun con ruptura de espesor completo1,2.El tratamiento quirúrgico por vía artroscópica ha tomado auge en los últimos años, ofreciendo grandes expectativas al paciente sobre el resultado postquirúrgico. Sin embargo, hay factores que pueden afectar el resultado de la cirugía como la calidad del tendón, el tamaño de la retracción y la infiltración grasa3.La evaluación de las anormalidades del musculo del manguito rotador después de su ruptura es un factor importante para la toma de decisiones a la hora del tratamiento. La gravedad de la degeneración grasa prequirúrgica es especialmente relevante pues influye en el pronóstico y la recuperación funcional posquirúrgica. Una determinación precisa de la degeneración grasa en el musculo supraespinoso es, por lo tanto, un elemento crucial para evaluar las indicaciones quirúrgicas y el pronóstico postoperatorio4. Se demostró que cuanto más tiempo lleven los síntomas, mayor será la degeneración grasa del musculo cuyo tendón este roto, así mismo demostró que la tasa de re-ruptura era menos cuando había mínima degeneración grasa, y que después de la reparación esta degeneración grasa del supraespinoso revertía en un 21%; por otro lado, algunos estudios manifiestan que el musculo no se regenera, apoyando la idea de una pronta cirugía antes de que ocurra la degeneración grasa5. La clasificación de Goutallier es altamente aceptada como sistema estándar de calificación en 5 grados para la degeneración grasa muscular, esta se basa en imágenes de RMN sagita
Fri flyt av vitenskap? EØS-avtalens betydning for forskning i Norge
Authors: Gornitzka Åse
Published: November 2019

Gjennom EØS-avtalen ble det norske forskningssystemet koblet til en overnasjonal politikk preget av lagvis endring og ekspansjon. EUs økende engasjement i forskningspolitikken har resultert i et bredt sammensatt sett av forsknings- og innovasjonspolitiske virkemidler og en økende andel av EUs budsjett. Dette politikkområdet er båret av overnasjonale prinsipper for forskningsfinansiering og intense transnasjonale nettverk i sektoren. EØS-avtalen skapte en forutsigbar ramme for samhandling mellom norske og europeiske forskningsmiljøer med EUs rammeprogram for forskning som gravitasjonspunkt. Denne artikkelen retter oppmerksomheten mot de effekter denne 25-årige koblingen har hatt på det nasjonale forskningspolitiske nivå og på forskningsmiljøenes faglige aktiviteter.
Abstract in English:Free Flow of Science? The EEA Agreement’s Significance for Research in NorwayThe EEA agreement linked the Norwegian research system with the EU’s research policy domain, a policy area marked by layered change and expansion. The EU’s increasing research policy engagement has resulted in a broad panoply of research and innovation instruments and an increasing share of the EU’s budget. Integration in this policy area is carried by supranational principles for research funding and set of intense transnational policy and research networks. The EEA agreement created a predictable frame for interaction between Norwegian and European research with the Framework programmes for research as the node. This article looks at the effects that this connection has had on the national policy and research performing levels for the past 25 years.

The article highlights the peculiarities of implementing advertising texts of European and domestic hotels in the Internet discourse. These texts are characterized by manipulation tactics and approaches: manipulation of images, ways of presenting information, speech manner influencing at the lexical level. Manipulation of images in advertising texts is realized by means of appeal to positive emotions, appeal to social attitudes, accentuation of attention, speculation in the right di-rection, creating a virtual tour, offering call information, receiving solidarity, receiving indications of authority and receiving binding. Manipulative tactics of information supply is realized by means

of composing topics by small portions, selection of information, excessive supply of information, mnemonic tactics of presenting information, “You”-approach, slogans, putting on the mask of the adviser.
Como nos movemos nos dois lados da fronteira – Reflexão sobre variação lexical entre o português e o galego
Authors: Carrilho Ana Rita , Vázquez Diéguez Ignacio
Published: November 2019

A reflexão sobre o conceito de movimento remonta à filosofia grega pré-socrática, associada a outros conceitos como os de tempo, de mudança e metamorfose. É histórica a contenda entre Parménides (imobilidade) e Heráclito de Éfeso, para quem na natureza, na vida e na sociedade tudo é dinâmico. Mais tarde, Aristóteles sintetizou estas duas posições e o conceito de movimento, frequentemente associado a mudança e devir, torna-se num dos principais desafios colocados ao pensamento aristotélico. O filósofo traça uma teoria do movimento, dividindo-o em deslocamento no espaço (traslação), substância (geração), mudança quantitativa (aumento e diminuição) e mudança qualitativa (alteração). Neste sentido, estão lançadas as bases para a máxima tomista: Tudo o que se move é movido por alguma coisa.Do ponto de vista lexical, uma recolha (e respetiva análise) dos verbos que carregam o sema de movimento permitirá traçar um percurso da forma como o sujeito se relaciona desde sempre com tudo o que o rodeia, sendo ainda mais pertinente verificar a existência de pontos de contacto e de afastamento entre línguas como o galego e o português que partilham não só uma fronteira, como também uma história.
Effect of parameter selection on different topological structures for Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm
Authors: Peri Daniele
Published: November 2019

Particle Swarm Optimization is an evolutionary optimization algorithm, largely studied during the years: analysis of convergence, determination of the optimal coefficients, hybridization of the original algorithm and also the determination of the best relationship structure between the swarm elements (topology) have been investigated largely. Unfortunately, all these studies have been produced separately, and the same coefficients, derived for the original topology of the algorithm, have been always applied. The intent of this paper is to identify the best set of coefficients for different topological structures. A large suite of objective functions are considered and the best compromise coefficients are identified for each topology. Results are finally compared on the base of a practical ship design application.
The Role of Social Relationships in Children’s Active EFL Learning
Authors: Matrić Maja , Brumen Mihaela , Košir Katja
Published: November 2019

Our research aimed to investigate the relationship between the measures of satisfied need for relatedness (perceived academic and personal peer support and teacher-assessed social acceptance of the student) and measures of active English as a Foreign Language (EFL) (teacher-assessed and student self-assessed EFL engagement and EFL anxiety), as well as possible gender differences in an EFL setting. The research included 535 students and 11 teachers from rural primary schools in Slovenia. The predictive value of need for relatedness was the strongest for students’ emotional EFL engagement and teacher-assessed EFL engagement of the students, followed by students’ behavioral EFL engagement and EFL anxiety. Students who report higher peer support and are assessed as more socially accepted by their teachers experience higher engagement (self-assessed and teacher-assessed) and lower EFL anxiety. All measures of active learning, apart from anxiety, were higher for girls.
Latvian Electric Vehicle Fast Charging Infrastructure: Results of the First Year of Operation
Authors: Rubenis Aivars , Laizans Aigars , Zvirbule Andra
Published: November 2019

This article presents preliminary analysis of the Latvian national EV fast - charging network after the first year of operation. The first phase of Latvian national EV fast-charging network was launched in 2018 with 70 charging stations on the TEN-T roads and in the largest towns and cities. The article looks at the initial results, both looking at the total capacity utilization for individual charging stations, determining the hourly charging distribution; and to the utilization of the network as a whole. The results present that there is a very large dispersion of the data, most of the charging events happening in a few charging stations in and around the capital of Latvia. However, there have been charging events in all charging stations, even in the most remote ones. Even more skewed distribution was observed analyzing the charging habits of the EV users, with 10 % of users accounting for more than half of the charging events. This should be taken into account when considering applying the results for the future, expecting larger number of electric vehicles in Latvia.

Published: November 2019

In Russia, the legislative support for the construction and operation of heating systems is permanently developing and improving. The Federal law “On heat supply” adopted in 2010 is the basic and most important document that regulates the work of heating systems. Moreover, the country has more than 10 additional documents that regulate this industry, and a great number of documents that establish rules for building and operating energy systems. The paper presents the main documents that regulate the heat supply industry in the Russian Federation, and a brief description of the main stages of heating system life cycle and problems solved in each of them. Despite the national policy of energy conservation and energy efficiency enhancement, there are still problems related to heat supply management due to large extension, complexity and a variety of types and structures of the systems. The main cause of the poor heat supply efficiency in Russia is explained by a considerable change in the structure of heat loads that has occurred of late years, a decrease in the loading of the main generating equipment and heat networks, which amid other things is fostered by an increasing wear of the systems. Upgrading of generating capacities and heat networks is considered in the framework of long-term investment projects for their modernization and expansion. The obtained solutions are reflected in the Schemes of urban heat supply. This paper proposes solutions aimed at enhancing the effectiveness of decisions made in the field of heat supply. It formulates the proposals on organization and regulation of the activities of all the participants in heat supply in the stage of long-term planning of heating system expansion, because well-founded and rational planning of construction and expansion of the systems is a basis for their efficient operation.
