Published: June 2020

Infection of bulls with bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) can result in the development of virus persistence, confined to the reproductive tract. These bulls develop a normal immune response with high neutralizing antibody titres. However, BVDV can be excreted in the semen for a prolonged period. Although relatively rare, in this study we describe six separate cases in bulls being prepared for admission to artificial breeding centres. Semen samples were tested in a pan-Pestivirus-reactive real-time PCR assay and viral RNA was detected in semen from five of the bulls for three to eight months after infection. In one bull, virus was detected at low levels for more than five years. This bull was found to have one small testis. When slaughtered, virus was only detected in the abnormal testis. The low levels of BVDV in the semen of these bulls were only intermittently detected by virus isolation in cell culture. This virus-contaminated semen presents a biosecurity risk and confirms the need to screen all batches of semen from bulls that have been previously infected with BVDV. The use of real-time PCR is recommended as the preferred laboratory assay for this purpose.
Risk Assessment and Virological Monitoring Following an Accidental Exposure to Concentrated Sabin Poliovirus Type 3 in France, November 2018
Authors: Jeannoël Marion , Antona Denise , Lazarus Clément , Lina Bruno , Schuffenecker Isabelle
Published: June 2020

The safe and secure containment of infectious poliovirus (PV) in facilities where live PV are handled is the condition to achieve and maintain poliomyelitis eradication. Despite precautions to minimize the risk of release of PV from such facilities to the environment, breaches of containment have already been documented. Here, we report the management of an incident that occurred on 30 November 2018 in a French vaccine manufacturing plant. Five adequately vaccinated operators were exposed to a Sabin poliovirus type 3 (PV3) spill. A microbiological risk assessment was conducted and the operators were monitored for PV shedding. On day 5 after exposure, Sabin PV3 was detected only in the stool sample of the most exposed worker. Shedding of Sabin PV3 (as detected by viral culture) was restricted to a very short period (less than 15 days). Monitoring of this incident was an opportunity to assess the relevance of our national response plan. We concluded that the measures undertaken and reported here were appropriate and proportional.
Activation of OX40 and CD27 Costimulatory Signalling in Sheep through Recombinant Ovine Ligands

Published: June 2020

Members of the tumour necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily OX40L and CD70 and their receptors are costimulating signalling axes critical for adequate T cell activation in humans and mice but characterisation of these molecules in other species including ruminants is lacking. Here we cloned and expressed the predicted ovine orthologues of the receptors OX40 and CD27, as well as soluble recombinant forms of their potential ovine ligands, OaOX40L and OaCD70. Using biochemical and immunofluorescence analyses, we show that both signalling axes are functional in sheep. We show that oligomeric recombinant ligand constructs are able to induce signalling through their receptors on transfected cells. Recombinant defective human adenoviruses were constructed to express the soluble forms of OaOX40L and OaCD70. Both proteins were detected in the supernatant of adenovirus-infected cells and shown to activate NF-κB signalling pathway through their cognate receptor. These adenovirus-secreted OaOX40L and OaCD70 forms could also activate ovine T cell proliferation and enhance IFN-γ production in CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Altogether, this study provides the first characterisation of the ovine costimulatory OX40L-OX40 and CD70-CD27 signalling axes, and indicates that their activation in vivo may be useful to enhance vaccination-induced immune responses in sheep and other ruminants.
Infectious Bronchitis Virus Evolution, Diagnosis and Control
Authors: Legnardi Matteo , Tucciarone Claudia Maria , Franzo Giovanni , Cecchinato Mattia
Published: June 2020

RNA viruses are characterized by high mutation and recombination rates, which allow a rapid adaptation to new environments. Most of the emerging diseases and host jumps are therefore sustained by these viruses. Rapid evolution may also hinder the understanding of molecular epidemiology, affect the sensitivity of diagnostic assays, limit the vaccine efficacy and favor episodes of immune escape, thus significantly complicating the control of even well-known pathogens. The history of infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) fits well with the above-mentioned scenario. Despite being known since the 1930s, it still represents one of the main causes of disease and economic losses for the poultry industry. A plethora of strategies have been developed and applied over time, with variable success, to limit its impact. However, they have rarely been evaluated objectively and on an adequate scale. Therefore, the actual advantages and disadvantages of IBV detection and control strategies, as well as their implementation, still largely depend on individual sensibility. The present manuscript aims to review the main features of IBV biology and evolution, focusing on their relevance and potential applications in terms of diagnosis and control.

A synopsis of 20 species of Manihot Mill. with non-lobed or pinnately lobed leaves is presented. Six of these species were included in the section Brevipetiolatae Pax by Rogers and Appan in the latest treatment of the genus. Molecular analyses show this is not a monophyletic section, although it is useful as a practical matter to treat this as a morphologically readily delimited group. We evaluate the species previously included in section Brevipetiolatae sensu Rogers and Appan, typify names where necessary, and synonymize the section. Twenty species are clarified and six lectotypes are designated. Three species previously put into synonymy, M. brachystachys Pax & K. Hoffm., M. linearifolia Müll. Arg., and M. mattogrossensis Pax & K. Hoffm., are here resurrected, and M. graminiformis M. Mend. & T. B. Cavalc. is described as a new species. An identification key and comments on the most similar morphological species, as well as ecological aspects and distribution for each species, are included.

Almost twenty one years Indonesia escape from the clutches from the regime of Orde Baru, in fact this nation does not necessarily become a democratic nation. The concept of citizenship embodied in the fourth principle of Pancasila which should interpreted as a citizen of the owner of supreme sovereignty in a country, it misinterpreted into objects which is influenced by the wisdom of the authorities, and the implementation of democracy is run solely limited to compliance with the rules and not within the framework to empower citizens. In the middle uncertainty of finding the ideal form of democracy, appear discourse on deliberative democracy which emphasizes the active participation of citizens through the media and the vocal organizations to play a very significant influence in the process of establishing the legal and political policies. If we explored it more deeply, this idea looks similar to the idea of Democracy of Pancasila which was popularized by the founding fathers of Indonesia. Offering a more humanistic approach, egalitarian, and accommodating this idea seems quite interesting if it actually implemented in Indonesia.Keyword: Citizens, Deliberative, Democracy, Participation.

Este trabalho tem como objeto as comunidades virtuais de jogadores – aqui entendidas como contextos de consumo, produção e circulação cultural –, refletindo a respeito dos limites e das oportunidades da socialização ensejada por elas no que se refere ao desenvolvimento da criticidade na relação entre videogames e seus consumidores. Em termos metodológicos, opera na perspectiva da etnografia de prática arqueológica, constituindo-se como um estudo de caso sobre a comunidade on-line UOL Jogos. Por meio da polêmica envolvendo o jogo Mass Effect 3, observa que vários dos conteúdos presentes nestes domínios detêm o potencial de expandir a compreensão dos jogadores acerca dos games, fornecendo conceitos e informações significativas que lhes permitem transcender e (res)significar suas experiências de jogo. Não obstante, por serem vulneráveis aos interesses e às visões de mundo de quem os produz, tais conteúdos também sinalizam a necessidade de novas competências críticas, capazes de preparar os jogadores para lidar com a complexidade presente nos conteúdos culturais dispersos dentro e em torno dos jogos.

Published: June 2020

Este artigo é parte de uma pesquisa mais ampla e tem, como objetivo, identificar e discutir as compreensões de lazer/ocio de estudantes, professores e profissionais vinculados a programas de Mestrado e Doutorado dedicados às temáticas da sustentabilidade e meio ambiente na América Latina. De enfoque qualitativo, a metodologia da pesquisa aqui contemplada foi baseada em estudo bibliográfico e aplicação de questionários no contexto de 12 programas vinculados à Rede CLACSO de Pós-graduação desenvolvidos em sete países latino-americanos: Argentina, Bolívia, Brasil, Colômbia, Cuba, Equador e México. A análise dos resultados seguiu a estratégia de análise de conteúdo. O lazer/ocio foi compreendido de formas distintas pelos 49 voluntários, evidenciando uma variedade de sentidos e significações. Majoritariamente, o lazer/ocio foi tratado como algo oposto e diferente do trabalho e das atividades rotineiras, sendo utilizadas diferentes categorias para caracterizá-lo (tempo, atitude, atividade e espaço). Essa diversidade de olhares indica a importância de aprofundar conhecimentos sobre as categorias conceituais que constituem o lazer/ocio, tendo em vista a multiplicidade de possibilidades para compreendê-lo na América Latina e em outros contextos do mundo.

This study aimed to understand the social environment of groundnut production in Burkina Faso. The prospecting was carried out in three regions of Burkina Faso, namely the Central-East, the Central-North, and the Central-West Regions. Data were collected through direct observations and individual interviews using a questionnaire guide. At the end of this study, five (05) local ecotypes were collected which varied according to the ethnic group. These were Mayoro, zampou, dalga in Bissa ethnic group and Balolé, Wobgo in Mooré ethnic group. It appeared that groundnuts are mainly grown by women in small areas and these local ecotypes are disappearing progressively in favour of improved varieties developed by INERA (SH470P, QH243C). Research efforts for an agro-morphological and molecular genetic characterization of local varieties are necessary to facilitate their conservation.
METHODS OF CALCTULATING THE PARAMETERS OF VIBRATIONAL ASCILLATIONS OF THE SUPPORTS OF OFFSHORE STATIONARY PLATFORMS IN THE PRESENCE OF VARIABLE EDDY FORMATION

Published: June 2020

In the world, marine stationary platforms are actively used, which are subjected to various hydrodynamic effects. To date, the process of the emergence on the supports of the platform of non-stationary forces causing vibration of the supports along or across the sea current caused by the non-stationary pressure distribution has not been sufficiently studied. The body oscillations arising in this case begin to affect the tears of the vortices so that under certain conditions, when the amplitude of the oscillations reaches a certain flow rate at the considered flow rate, the frequency of the detachment of the vortices is compared with the frequency of the body oscillations leading to resonance. The study examines the conditions under which resonance occurs in the frequencies of natural oscillations of the supports and frequencies of variable hydrodynamic forces, and also gives a method for obtaining their numerical values and concludes that it is necessary to take into account the phenomenon of variable vortex formation when assessing the strength and life of offshore fixed platforms.
Los compromisos normativos de la aserción relativista
Authors: Caso Ramiro
Published: June 2020

Como han puesto de relieve Evans (1985) y García-Carpintero (2008), uno de los problemas más importantes respecto de la aserción en el marco de una concepción relativista radical de los discursos evaluativos es dar un tratamiento coherente de los compromisos y de las responsabilidades que la aserción misma genera cuando sus condiciones de corrección son inestables. Construyendo sobre la base de un trabajo de Losada (2015), el presente trabajo busca ofrecer dicho tratamiento.
El sentido del sinsentido
Authors: E. Szmuc Damián
Published: June 2020

En este artículo propondremos, discutiremos y formalizaremos criterios gracias a los cuales podría legítimamente decirse que una inferencia o argumento es analítico o sintético. Para ello, necesitaremos discutir la noción de asunto de una oración o fórmula, que será crucial en la determinación del carácter analítico o sintético de las inferencias. En el curso de dicha discusión, intentaremos mostrar que hay un interés filosófico en considerar semánticas para sistemas de lógica que admiten valores de verdad sin sentido, para lo cual haremos uso esencial de dos sistemas de “Lógicas del Sinsentido” introducidos por Dimitri Bochvar y Sören Halldén, respectivamente. El interés de considerar sistemas con semánticas de este tipo reside en que, bajo ciertas condiciones, dichos sistemas podrán ser tenidos por analíticos, o sintéticos.
¿Son el contextualismo y el relativismo un desafío o una vuelta de tuerca a la semántica fregeana? Acerca de Significados en contexto y verdad relativa de Eleonora Orlando
Authors: García-Ramírez Eduardo
Published: June 2020

En su más reciente libro (Orlando 2015), Eleonora Orlando nos presenta una provocadora propuesta que busca cuestionar el éxito de la tradición fregeana en filosofía del lenguaje siguiendo líneas contextualistas y relevantistas. Este libro constituye una valiosa aportación a la filosofía del lenguaje contemporánea. Es una lectura obligatoria para todo aquel interesado en entender el estado actual de la filosofía del lenguaje. Además, la gran variedad de textos y posturas que lo comprenden constituyen por sí mismos valiosas y en ocasiones controvertidas contribuciones a la discusión actual. De ahí que este libro sea también una extraordinaria invitación a continuar la ya centenaria discusión sobre la visión fregeana del lenguaje y si el contextualismo presenta una manera conveniente de mejorarla. En este artículo me propongo hacer un estudio crítico de este libro, particularmente de su desafío al fregeanismo. Para ello discutiré a detalle sus argumentos más antifregeanos, preguntándome al mismo tiempo si se trata de posturas incompatibles con la semántica fregeana o si, por el contrario, constituyen propuestas enteramente compatibles con esta.

I will focus on the story of Ali, a transgender activist friend, who was fighting against transphobia, his illness, and eventual death — during the 2013 public uprisings in Istanbul. Focusing on both the historic moment and this personal story, I ask: what happens when bodies assemble to protest, resist, and lay claim to an-other vision of liveable death, as well as life?
Differently Queer
Authors: Gragnolati Manuele
Published: June 2020

This article explores the relationship between temporality, aesthetics, and sexuality in Pier Paolo Pasolini’s Petrolio and Elsa Morante’s Aracoeli. Both novels mobilize a form of temporality that resists a sense of linear and teleological development and that instead appears contorted, inverted, suspended and thereby allows for the articulation of queer desires and pleasures that cannot be inscribed in normative logics of completion, progression, or productivity.

Published: June 2020

The study was conducted in one of the private fields of Wasit Governorate for the period from 22/1/2019 to 11/5/2019. The study aimed to investigate the impact of feeding different levels of saponins on the productive performance of Awassi lambs. Sixteen Awassi lambs aged three-four months with an average weight of 23.68 kg were used. The lambs were randomly divided into four experimental treatments with four animals for each. The diet provided at 3% of the body weight. The feed was provided with two meals (8 am and 4 pm). The 1st treatment was control (without addition), while in the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th treatments, saponins was added at level of 60, 120 and 180 mg.kg-1 DM feed respectively. Adding saponins at 180 mg.kg-1 DM increased the final body weight at the second and third months of the study with 34.35 and 40.36 kg, respectively. Total gain was increased in this treatment from 15.03 kg in control to 17.47 kg. Feed conversion ratio of the same treatment was 5.52 as compared with 6.24 kg.kg-1 feed for the control treatment. Glucose and protein concentrations in the serum also showed an improvement due to the addition of saponins. Values were, 57.24 mg.100 ml-1 and 4.83 g.100 ml-1 respectively. Those of control group were 51.86 mg.100 m-1 and 4.62 g.100 ml-1 respectively. Cholesterol concentration in the serum was not affected by addition of different levels of saponins. It can be concluded that addition of saponins at 180 mg. kg-1 feed improved body weight, gain, feed conversion ratio and some serum biochemical parameters.

Technology is very popular media for learning today. For English foreign language (EFL) learners, the interesting and comprehensible media of learning is much needed. Game learning (GL) is one of integrated learning activities and will always been an integrated approach of ELT as foreign and second language for learning process. This paper is based on the research which conducted in STMIK Komputama Majenang. The researcher did the survey by giving questionnaire. The respondent is some students from Sistem Informasi and Teknik Informasi students, which is taken by Google form. Besides using the questionnaire, the researcher was also got observation from in depth interview with some EFL learners, the native lecture who teaches English, and also did literature review from some books. The result of the research then gives some evidences those EFL learners’ difficulties in engaging the English learning motivation. It can be seen from the data that all them (51.5% or 23) are agree for using this aps is helpful to encourage their vocabulary. It also mentions that 73.3% or 33 students approved to use kahoot! to enrich their vocabulary. The students also fell fun to use this media. It shows from the result that 64.4% or 29 students stated less stressful. The most interesting is that almost of the students are enjoyed to learning English by this media (53%).

Published: June 2020

Drawing on a lengthier review completed for the US National Institute for Literacy, this paper examines emerging technologies that are applicable to self-access and autonomous learning in the areas of listening and speaking, collaborative writing, reading and language structure, and online interaction. Digital media reviewed include podcasts, blogs, wikis, online writing sites, text-scaffolding software, concordancers, multiuser virtual environments, multiplayer games, and chatbots. For each of these technologies, we summarize recent research and discuss possible uses for autonomous language learning.
Investigating Language Learning Activity Using a CALL Task in the Self-access Centre
Authors: Montoro Carlos , Hampel Regine
Published: June 2020

This article describes a small study of the language learning activity of individual learners using a CALL task in a self-access environment. The research focuses on the nature of the language learning activity, the most salient elements that make up its structure and major disturbances observed between and within some of those elements. It is set in the context of computer-assisted language learning (CALL) and activity theory. A CALL task designed by the authors was made available online to be used as a research and learning tool. Empirical data was collected from two participants using ethnographic tools, such as participant observation and stimulated recall sessions. The analysis focuses on disturbances mainly involving the subject (i.e., the learner), mediating artefacts (e.g., the CALL task), the community (e.g., management and other self-access centre users) and the object of the activity (i.e., learning English). It is recommended that future studies should look deeper into contradictions in the learning activity from a cultural-historical perspective.
Evaluating Learner Autonomy: A Dynamic Model with Descriptors
Authors: Tassinari Maria Giovanna
Published: June 2020

Every autonomous learning process should entail an evaluation of the learner’s competencies for autonomy. The dynamic model of learner autonomy described in this paper is a tool designed in order to support the self-assessment and evaluation of learning competencies and to help both learners and advisors to focus on relevant aspects of the learning process. The dynamic model accounts for cognitive, metacognitive, action-oriented and affective components of learner autonomy and provides descriptors of learners’ attitudes, competencies and behaviors. It is dynamic in order to allow learners to focus on their own needs and goals.

The model (LINK) has been validated in several workshops with experts at the Université Nancy 2, France and at the Freie Universität Berlin, Germany and tested by students, advisors and teachers. It is currently used at the Centre for Independent Language Learning at the Freie Universität Berlin for language advising. Learners can freely choose the components they would like to assess themselves in. Their assessment is then discussed in an advising session, where the learner and the advisor can compare their perspectives, focus on single aspects of the leaning process and set goals for further learning. The students’ feedback gathered in my PhD investigation shows that they are able to benefit from this evaluation; their awareness, self-reflection and decision-making in the autonomous learning process improved.
Long Noncoding RNA LINC02163 Accelerates Malignant Tumor Behaviors in Breast Cancer by Regulating the MicroRNA-511-3p/HMGA2 Axis

Long intergenic nonprotein-coding RNA 02163 (LINC02163) has been reported to be upregulated and work as an oncogene in gastric cancer. The aims of the present study were to determine the expression profile and clinical value of LINC02163 in breast cancer. Additionally, the detailed
functions of LINC02163 in breast cancer were explored, and relevant molecular events were elucidated. In this study, LINC02163 was upregulated in breast cancer, and its expression level was closely associated with tumor size, lymph node metastasis, and TNM stage. Patients with breast cancer
presenting high LINC02163 expression exhibited shorter overall survival than those presenting low LINC02163 expression. Knockdown of LINC02163 resulted in a decrease in breast cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion and an increase in cell apoptosis in vitro. In addition, silencing
of LINC02163 impeded breast cancer tumor growth in vivo. Mechanistic investigation revealed that LINC02163 served as a competing endogenous RNA for microRNA-511-3p (miR-511-3p) and consequently upregulated the expression of the high-mobility group A2 (HMGA2), a downstream target of miR-511-3p.
Intriguingly, miR-511-3p inhibition and HMGA2 restoration counteracted the effects of LINC02163 deficiency on the malignant properties of breast cancer cells. LINC02163 exerts cancer-promoting effects during the initiation and progression of breast cancer via regulation of the miR-511-3p/HMGA2
axis. Our findings add to our understanding of the roles of the LINC02163/miR-511-3p/HMGA2 pathway as a regulator of breast cancer pathogenesis and may be useful in the development of lncRNA-directed cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy.

Katika makala haya, mtafiti anaeleza jinsi lugha inavyotumiwa na wazazi katika shughuli ya kuelekeza mabinti zao katika maisha ya ndoa. Anafanya hivyo kwa kurejelea ndoa za kijadi katika jamii ya Wamasaaba nchini Uganda. Kwa kurejelea jamii hii, mtafiti anaeleza namna wazazi wanavyotumia lugha kuelekeza mabinti zao katika mambo yanayopelekea ndoa zao kudumu.  Mtafiti alinukuu baadhi ya semi ambazo zinasemekana kuwa zinatumiwa na wazazi katika shughuli hiyo. Ni kweli kwamba lugha yoyote ile huwa inafanya kazi nyingi sana kama vile kutumbuiza watu, kutongozana, kugombana, kufundisha, kuelekeza, n.k. Hii ni kwa sababu bila kutumia lugha, mtu hawezi akaimba wimbo, akagombana, akafundisha, na akaelekeza. Hata hivyo, katika makala hii, mtafiti anajikita kwenye mchango wa lugha katika maisha ya ndoa. Katika kazi hii, mtafiti anazingatia semi mbalimbali ambazo Wamasaaba huzitumia kwa ajili ya kuelekeza mabinti zao katika masuala ya ndoa. Katika jamii mbalimbali, watu hutumia lugha kutekeleza jambo hili. Jamii hasa zile za jadi zilitumia lugha kuelekeza mabinti katika mambo ya ndoa. Kuna namna ambavyo walisuka lugha kisanaa kwa lengo la kufunza mabinti maisha ya ndoa. Hii ni kwa sababu hawakuwa na madarasa maalumu mwa kufunzia watoto wao kama ilivyo sasa. Katika jamii hizo, shule zenyewe hazikuwepo. Kwa hiyo, lugha ndiyo ilikuwa chombo maalumu cha kufunzia watoto. Matumizi ya lugha yalidhamiria kukuza mabinti ambao wangevumilia maisha ya ndoa. Hivyo basi, katika kazi hii, mtafiti anajikita katika matumizi ya lugha na kueleza jinsi Wamasaaba wanavyotumia semi mbalimbali kuelekeza mabinti zao katika masuala ya ndoa.
