É importante que se obtenha informações sobre tutores de cadelas portadoras de tumor de mama, pois o tutor precisa cuidar do animal principalmente no pós-operatório já que o tratamento é mastectomia. Foram entrevistados 11 tutores de cadelas submetidas à mastectomia. A maioria dos entrevistados tem ensino médio e superior, morando em casa própria com renda de um a cinco salários mínimos. Apenas uma pessoa disse que não sabia que cadelas podem ter câncer de mama. Entretanto, a maioria não sabe como prevenir o câncer de mama em cadelas, demonstrando que são necessárias campanhas educacionais sobre a doença para tutores de cadelas. A maneira mais frequente de aquisição do animal foi a adoção, o que demonstra o crescimento da posse responsável entre os tutores brasileiros. Três tutores afirmaram que aplicaram anticoncepcional nas suas cadelas várias vezes. Este fato é bastante preocupante porque tais fármacos possuem diversos efeitos colaterais adversos, inclusive tumor de mama. Oito tutores informaram que nunca haviam consultado um médico veterinário antes sobre o tumor, embora o mesmo fosse evidente. A maioria dos tutores só procurou ajuda para a cadela porque a participação no projeto era gratuita. Dificuldades financeiras é um dos principais motivos para que os tutores retardem as consultas. Entretanto, quando questionados por qual motivo as cadelas não tinham sido tratadas antes, nenhum tutor citou dificuldades financeiras. Concluiu-se que alguns tumores de mama foram causados por aplicação de anticoncepcional e que o desconhecimento sobre a doença ainda é grande entre os tutores entrevistados.
PRECEDENTES JUDICIAIS NO SISTEMA JURÍDICO BRASILEIRO E A IMPORTÂNCIA DA JURISPRUDÊNCIA ESTÁVEL, ÍNTEGRA E COERENTE
Authors: Pedro Alisson Da Silveira , Turbay Junior Albino Gabriel
Published: March 2020

O presente artigo tem como objetivo o estudo da teoria dos precedentes judiciais e sua aplicação no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro ante a aproximação do sistema pátrio, baseado essencialmente na civil law, ao sistema da common law, oriundo de países de origem anglo-saxônica. Assim, analisa-se, inicialmente, a origem do sistema de precedentes, através do estudo da teoria do sistema common law. Em seguida, são apresentados o conceito de precedentes judiciais, seus elementos essenciais, técnicas de superação e a importância deste sistema, incorporado ao ordenamento nacional pelo Novo Código de Processo Civil (NCPC) ante o advento do neoconstitucionalismo, que trouxe consigo maior carga valorativa aos princípios e às normas de conteúdo aberto, abrindo, entretanto, a possibilidade de entendimentos divergentes acerca de questões jurídicas semelhantes. Conclui-se que o respeito aos precedentes se constitui em um critério objetivo de decisão, que reduz a produção de decisões conflitantes e assegura o tratamento isonômico àqueles que se encontram em situações análogas, promovendo a ideia de igualdade e segurança jurídica, e garantindo a efetividade do processo e das garantias constitucionais.

Authors: Cordón Lagares Encarnación , García Ordaz Félix
Published: March 2020

Las políticas basadas en la concesión de subsidios a sectores económicos concretos, y entre ellos al sector pesquero, se han generalizado durante los últimos cincuenta años y a pesar de su dilatada historia, no se ha llegado a alcanzar un consenso sobre su alcance y efectos. El análisis del impacto y efectividad de la política de subvenciones por parte de la UE al sector pesquero español constituye el principal objetivo de este trabajo, para lo cual ha sido necesario contemplar el análisis evolutivo de estos subsidios durante el período 1994-2012. De las diferentes líneas de ayuda al sector pesquero por la UE dos han sido especialmente relevantes: las ayudas a la modernización y las destinadas a la reducción del esfuerzo pesquero mediante el desguace.

COMPARISON OF JOB STRESS PROFILE AMONG DOCTORS IN INDONESIA AND INDONESIA'S DOCTORS IN GERMANY
Authors: Atmoko Ratri
Published: March 2020

The high demand for health care workers in Germany creates opportunities for foreigners to work in Germany, including doctors from Indonesia. The difference in cultural context constructs different meanings toward factors of job stress. This study aimed to compare the factors of job stress among doctors in Indonesia and Indonesia's doctors in Germany.  KFZA (Kurz-Fragebogen zur Arbeitsanalyse) or Short Questionnaire for Job Analysis is utilized to measure job stress. As many as 12 doctors in Indonesia and 8 Indonesia's doctors in Germany became the participants. As a result, job stress among the two groups triggered by the lack of information and the low opportunity for consultation support. In addition to those factors, job stress among doctors in Indonesia is also triggered by lack of opportunities for comprehensive work, low independence for planning, organizing and decision making, lack of internal social support, poor collaborative work climate, and unsatisfactory organization services.
Власть и традиционная культура региона в динамике журнальных репрезентаций: Тува на страницах журнала «Сибирские огни» (1920-е — 2010-е гг.)
Authors: Красильникова Екатерина Ивановна , Вальдман Игорь Александрович
Published: March 2020

В статье раскрываются особенности репрезентаций исторического прошлого и традиционной культуры тувинского народа на страницах старейшего в Сибири и России литературно-художественного и общественно-политического журнала «Сибирские огни» с 1920-х гг. до современности в контексте динамики развития государственной политики памяти. Учитывая то, что на протяжении ХХ в. Тува пережила колоссальные модернизационные изменения, авторы объясняют значение коллективной памяти о прошлом для традиционного общества с точки зрения сохранения социально-политического порядка и показывают участие советского периодического издания в процессе политизации тувинской истории со стороны государственных властей.На основе анализа журнальных публикаций на темы истории, культуры и литературы Тувы (более 30), а также делопроизводственной документации редакции «Сибирских огней» в статье прослеживается трансформация репрезентаций авторами журнала традиционной тувинской культуры. Тональность публикаций меняется от ее неприятия и критики — к попыткам увидеть в ней вновь обретенный источник самобытного развития региона. Выделяется четыре этапа процесса конструирования образов истории и традиционной культуры Тувы журналом «Сибирские огни»: с середины 1920-х до конца 1940-х гг.; с конца 1940-х гг. до начала 1980-х гг.; в 1980-е гг. и с начала 1990-х гг. до настоящего времени.

Published: March 2020

Статья посвящена описанию инновационной интерактивной модели поддержки языка и культуры с опорой на русский язык, которую предложил Стратегический центр развития переводческого образования в России (языки РФ) при Российской академии образования, и ее реализации на базе тувинского языка.Модель основывается на солидарных усилиях региона представителей РАО; она включает в себя 6 аспектов и 4 этапа реализации. Каждый из четырех этапов реализации данной модели содержит несколько из описанных аспектов.В ходе очного этапа реализации модели в ноябре 2019 г. состоялся семинар в Тувинском государственном университете. На нем были обсуждены произведения современной поэзии и прозы Тувы, а также фольклорные записи. Прошла апробацию комплексная методика поддержки словесной культуры региона через перевод на русский язык.Состоявшийся семинар можно считать установочным для дальнейшего развития перевода в регионе. Подробный анализ подлинников и сопоставление их с переводами наглядно показал, насколько плодотворен описанный метод для выявления богатства тувинской культуры. Одновременно востребованными оказались широкие знания русского языка, его стилистических и литературных ресурсов.

Published: March 2020

Developing humidity sensing materials with fast response and high sensitivity was of great interest for many applications from industrial field to human healthcare. Here, we report a carbon nitride nanoribbons (CNNRs)-based humidity sensor. Thanks to the delicate humidity-responsive anisotropic deformation and well-balanced hydrophilic surfaces/hydrophobic framework with rapid adsorption/desorption of water molecules by CNNRs, this humidity sensor possessed an ultrafast response of ca. 50 ms, high reproducibility and selectivity, and linearity in an almost full humidity range. As an example, this sensor was successfully applied to real-time breathing detection, and the as-obtained breathing graphic waveforms exhibited a higher sensitivity than that by the traditional clinic measurements. This work would pave a new way for ultrafast and sensitive humidity sensing by using anisotropic deformation of CNNRs and introduce a new application scheme of humidity sensors in more user-friendly respiratory monitoring with higher resolution.

Psi4 is a free and open-source ab initio electronic structure program providing Hartree–Fock, density functional theory, many-body perturbation theory, configuration interaction, density cumulant theory, symmetry-adapted perturbation theory, and coupled-cluster theory. Most of the methods are quite efficient thanks to density fitting and multi-core parallelism. The program is a hybrid of C++ and Python, and calculations may be run with very simple text files or using the Python API, facilitating post-processing and complex workflows; method developers also have access to most of Psi4’s core functionality via Python. Job specification may be passed using The Molecular Sciences Software Institute (MolSSI) QCSchema data format, facilitating interoperability. A rewrite of our top-level computation driver, and concomitant adoption of the MolSSI QCArchive Infrastructure project, make the latest version of Psi4 well suited to distributed computation of large numbers of independent tasks. The project has fostered the development of independent software components that may be reused in other quantum chemistry programs.
G-RMSD: Root Mean Square Deviation Based Method for Three-dimensional Molecular Similarity Determination
Authors: Fukutani, Tomonori , Miyazawa kohei , Iwata Satoru , Satoh Hiroko
Published: March 2020

We present the Generalized Root Mean Square Deviation (G-RMSD) method. G-RMSD is an optimization method to calculate the minimal RMSD value of two atomic structures by optimal superimposition. The method is not restricted to systems with an equal number of atoms or a unique atom matching and can handle any type of chemical structure, including transition states and non-valence bond structures. It requires only Cartesian coordinates for the structures, but can also include further information, i.e. atom and bond types. Applications of G-RMSD to the classification of alpha-D-glucose conformers and 3D partial structure search using a dataset containing equilibrium (EQ), dissociation channel (DC), and transition state (TS) structures are demonstrated. We find that G-RMSD allows for a successful classification and mapping for a wide variety of molecular structures.
Carbohydrate Transformer: Predicting Regio- and Stereoselective Reactions Using Transfer Learning
Authors: Pesciullesi Giorgio , Schwaller Philippe , Laino Teodoro , Reymond Jean-Louis
Published: March 2020

Organic chemistry is central to society because it enables the synthesis of complex molecules and materials used in all fields of science and technology. The synthetic methods represent a vast body of accumulated knowledge optimally suited for deep learning. Indeed, most organic reactions involve distinct functional groups and can readily be learned by deep learning models and chemists alike. The task is, however, much more challenging for regio- and stereoselective transformations because their outcome also depends on functional group surroundings in subtle ways. Here, we challenge the Molecular Transformer model to predict reactions in carbohydrate chemistry, a field of central importance in the life sciences and for vaccine development and where regio- and stereoselectivity are notoriously difficult to predict even for experienced chemists. We show that transfer learning of the general USPTO model with a small set of carbohydrate reactions produces a specialized Carbohydrate Transformer model, returning predictions for carbohydrate reactions with remarkable accuracy. We validate these predictions experimentally with a previously unpublished synthesis of a lipid-linked oligosaccharide, involving regioselective protecting group operations and stereoselective glycosylations that are typical for complex carbohydrate synthesis. The chemical reaction transfer learning methods presented in this work are generally applicable to any reaction class of interest.

Regression analysis for determination of antioxidant activity of coconut sap under various heating temperature and concentration of lysine addition
Authors: Sulistyo S.B. , Haryanti P.
Published: March 2020

This research aimed to determine the antioxidant activity of coconut sap added by
different concentration of lysine during the heating process by means of regression
analysis. This regression can be utilized to predict the antioxidant activity of coconut sap.
A number of antioxidant parameters, i.e. total phenolic content, browning intensity, DPPH
scavenging activity, and chelating activity, were measured using standard methods. The
results showed that the changes in the total phenolic content of coconut sap against
temperature during heating process followed a logarithmic regression function. The
correlation between total phenolic content and heating temperature was quite strong until
the temperature reached 100oC. Moreover, the changes in both browning intensity and
DPPH scavenging activity of coconut sap against heating temperature followed an
exponential regression. A quadratic regression function can represent the relationship
between the chelating activity of coconut sap and heating temperature since the correlation
of those parameters was relatively strong in the temperature range of 28-100oC. This study
showed that the changes in total phenolic content, browning intensity, DPPH scavenging
activity, and chelating activity of coconut sap during heating can be determined using
regression analysis.

Authors: Velázquez Narváez Yolanda , Díaz Cabrera Ma. Dolores
Published: March 2020

El objetivo del presente trabajo es analizar el panorama actual de violencia laboral que sufren las mujeres trabajadoras en México desde dos disyuntivas; una, al ser blanco de maltrato, discriminación y hostigamiento por parte de sus empleadores, subalternos y/o compañeros de trabajo; otra, al ser víctimas de inequidad respecto a las condiciones laborales por su condición de género. A partir de un enfoque cualitativo se presenta una revisión teórica compuesta por tres secciones; la primera conceptualiza la violencia laboral; la segunda presenta la realidad que viven las mujeres trabajadoras en México; y la tercera, aborda las disposiciones legales vigentes en la materia. Se concluye que, a la par de la legislación, deben surgir estrategias, desde las políticas públicas, enfocadas en la modificación de la cultura de la sociedad mexicana que favorezca la eliminación de conductas de violencia laboral y de género, empezando por la capacidad para reconocerlas cuando se presentan.
Digitalization of intellectual activity in Russian regions
Authors: Popov Evgeny , Strielkowsk Wadim , Vlasov Maksim
Published: March 2020

The article delves into the problems of the influence of digital technologies on intellectual performance. The relevance of the study is due to the fact that digital platforms underpin the innovative management mechanisms marked with a growing share of automation processes in the field of generation of knowledge and intellectual activity. One of such problems is the lack of unified methodological approaches to assessing the impact of digital technologies on intellectual performance. The methodological basis of the study includes strategic management theory and the principles of public and municipal governance. The research method is correlation analysis of the indicators of intellectual activity and the indicators of digital resources application. The information base of the research includes data on digital technologies application and the number of intellectual deliverables retrieved from the official website of the Federal State Statistics Service for the period of 2015–2017. Based on the theoretical analysis carried out, the authors conclude that the results of intellectual activity are the main tool for developing economic entities. We develop the weighted correlation coefficient of intellectual performance. This is an indicator that contains estimates of correlation coefficients of the results of intellectual activity and digital technologies, each of which has its own weighted coefficient. The study proves that digital technologies affect intellectual performance and their application increases the efficiency of intellectual activity.

Objectives: To determine the frequency of hypothyroidism in type II diabetic patients and to compare the lipid profile of diabetic patients with and without hypothyroidism. Study Design: Cross Sectional Study. Setting: Medicine Unit I Shaikh Zayed Hospital Lahore. Period: 5th August 2016 to 5th February 2017. Material & Methods: A total of 350 patients, aged 35-80 years, of both gender and having type II DM diagnosed at least 1 year ago were enrolled in our study. Fasting (12hr) blood samples were obtained and sent to the laboratory for measurement of serum TSH, total cholesterol, LDL and TGs. Patients with TSH value >10 μg/ml were labeled as hypothyroid. Two groups (hypothyroid diabetic and euthyroid diabetic) were made and lipid profile was compared in both groups. Results: Frequency of hypothyroidism in type II diabetic patients was recorded as 13.42% (n=47). When lipid profile of hypothyroid diabetic patients (group I) was compared with euthyroid diabetics (group II), it was noted that patients in group I had mean total cholesterol of 170.32 ± 12.90 mg/dl whereas in group II, it was 138.81 ± 28.89 mg/dl. Mean triglyceride level in group I was 176.21 ± 15.98 mg/dl, whereas in group II, it was 151.02 ± 27.78mg/dl. Mean LDL in group I was 87.17±15.97mg/dl, and 71.35±20.40 mg/dl in group II. Conclusions: Frequency of hypothyroidism in type II diabetic patients is higher as compared to general population. Moreover, dyslipidemia is significantly higher in hypothyroid diabetics when compared with euthyroid diabetics.

Published: March 2020

Objectives: This article is designed for comparison and contrast of item response theory measurement with classical measurement theory (Classical Measurement Theory) as well as to determine the various advantages offered by item response theory in the setting of medical education. Summary: Classical measurement theory is being impartial and inherent, is used more often than other models in medical education. However, there is one restriction encountered in the use of classical measurement theory that is it sample dependent and the data is bewildered in the specified sample that the researcher has assessed. Whereas, the score in item response theory separate from the sample or stimuli of assessment. Item Response Theory is consistent, it allows for easy evaluation of examination scores enabling the score to be placed in constant measurement scale and compare the change in students’ ability with time. There are various models of Item Response Theory out of which three are discussed along with their statistical assumptions. Conclusions: Item Response Theory being a capable tool is able to simplify a major issue of Classical Measurement Theory, i.e. bewilderment of skill of examinee with item characteristics. The Item Response Theory measurement inscribes the problems in medical education like removing rater mistakes from evaluation.

Published: March 2020

Abruption placentae are a major cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Placental abruption is due to the rupture of the uterine spiral artery. Bleeding into decidua leads to separation of the placenta. There are many major maternal and fetal complications associated with placental abruption. Objectives: To assess the maternal risk factors, perinatal mortality and morbidity in relation to the severity of placental abruption. Study Design: Descriptive case series. Setting: Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Jinnah Hospital, Lahore for one year. Period: From Jan 2016 to Dec 2016. Material & Methods: Hundred females were included with placental abruption and were followed-up till delivery. At the time of delivery maternal and fetal complications were noted. Results: Mean age of females was 29.24 + 3.58years. The mean gestational age at delivery was 32.95+3.12 weeks. About 64% underwent vaginal delivery while 36% underwent cesarean section. Among pre-disposing factors increased risk of anemia i.e. 46%, hypertension was found in 28%, multiple pregnancies with 18% and polyhydromnias were found in 8%. The incidence of fetal mortality was 58% and only 42% were born alive at time of delivery. Fetal morbidity is analyzed, 95.23% were in need of resuscitation, admission to nursery was done in 95.23%, neonatal jaundice was seen in 80.95%, anemia in 71.42% and respiratory problems were found in 85.71%. APGAR score at 5 minutes among 21 alive born fetuses was <8 in 85.71%. Conclusion: Resultantly maternal morbidity and perinatal mortality is significant, and this calls for early detection, regular visits, and special surveillance. There should be timely referral to tertiary care center where antenatal care plays an important role in decreasing the incidence of abruption placenta.

Many factors are required in order to increase the skills of English of higher education students, specifically computer science students. Of the factors, teachers play a very important role since they are the agents of change in the classrooms; not to neglect that the students are also the agents of their own changes. Using Brown’s 12 pedagogical characteristics of a good language teacher as its theory, this is a report of the first step of design-based research, practical problems encountered by teachers of English to computer science students conducted at two private universities in Indonesia. Among the 12 characteristics, knowledge of approaches to language teaching seems to be the biggest challenge that came upon the teachers. The findings of this step will subsequently be used as the bases to go further to the second cycle of design-based research, which is the development of solutions informed by existing design principles and technological innovations.

Published: March 2020

This study was aimed at developing an intercultural language learning (ILL) model and finding out its effectiveness to increase students’ writing skills. The kind of this study was procedural research (R&D) design. This study was preceded with the development phases and continued by field-testing. The field-testing was conducted by using a quasi-experimental method to know the effectiveness of the developed learning model. The sample included 64 students. The students were divided into two groups and each group consisted of 32 students. One group was the experimental group taught by suing the ILL model and the other group was the control group taught by implementing the conventional learning model. The mean score of students taught by ILL model was 80.34 and those taught by conventional one was 69.97. The data were defined as normal and homogeneous data because the value of sig. was higher than sig. level 0.05. Based on the ANOVA test, the value of sig. (0,000) was lower than the sig. level 0.05. It means there is a significantly different achievement of students taught using an ILL model rather than the conventional learning model. The result informed ILL model was more effective than the conventional one in the teaching of writing skills.

Published: March 2020

The article presents the results of the influence of various aerating agents, carriers of new generation oil-oxidizing biological product on the agrophysical parameters of sod-podzolic soil highly contaminated with oil (up to 10%), and on the rate of oil decomposition in it. The studies were carried out in a microfield experiment in the conditions of the Udmurt Republic. It was established that during the growing season of 2019 all studied carriers of the biological product had positive effect on these indicators, however, the parameters of the changes were determined by their types. Thus, the application of sawdust, barley straw and flax shive into the soil provided an increase in the structural coefficient by 0.83-0.99 units or 35-43 %. All studied carriers of the biological product statistically significantly reduced the density of the contaminated soil, the greatest effect on this indicator was exerted by flax shive (by 0.42 g/cm3 or 32 %) and sawdust (by 0.34 g/cm3 or by 26 %). The application of vermiculite increased the productive moisture content in the contaminated soil most significantly - by 115 m3 /ha or by 50.7 %. The improvement of agrophysical properties of oil-contaminated soil by carriers of the biological product increased drastically the effectiveness of the preparation for oil decomposition. The greatest effect on this indicator (by 9.9-10.9 mg/kg or 40.2- 44.3 %) was exerted by the biological product in combination with flax shive, lignin and straw. The application of organomineral fertilizers into the contaminated soil also improved the agrophysical properties of oil-contaminated soils significantly and reduced the residual oil content in it by 13.0 mg/kg or 52.8 %.

Objetivo: Conhecer as percepções e necessidades de autocuidado de pacientes sobre estomia intestinal no período pré-operatório. Método: Pesquisa qualitativa exploratório-descritiva realizada em unidade de internação cirúrgica de um hospital no sul do Brasil, com sete pacientes internados em pré-operatório de cirurgia intestinal. Os dados foram coletados mediante entrevistas semiestruturadas e submetidos à análise temática de conteúdo. Da análise dos dados emergiram três categorias temáticas: itinerário terapêutico e sentimentos associados; conhecimentos, percepções e expectativas sobre estomia intestinal; e necessidades de autocuidado do paciente com estomia intestinal. Resultados: Os participantes evidenciaram desconhecimento sobre estomia intestinal e avaliaram essa possibilidade como algo negativo, que acarretaria modificações de hábitos de vida, com poucas informações sobre os cuidados. Conclusão: Evidencia-se a necessidade do fornecimento de orientações no pré-operatório para melhor aceitação e fortalecimento do autocuidado do paciente no período pós-operatório apontando o enfermeiro como profissional essencial nesse processo.
