Information gaps in the market for social services: retirement homes in the Czech Republic
Authors: Vrabková Iveta , Ertingerová Izabela , Vavrek Roman
Published: September 2019

The research address a partial issue of market failure in the form of information asymmetry. Within the public sector, social services, together with health services, belong to typical sectors where the information superiority of supply against demand is detected. The presence of asymmetrical/imperfect information within the social care has a significant effect on retired people who demand the services of retirement homes, and this effect occurs before as well as during the consumption of this service. The paper aims to identify and evaluate the information gaps of 159 official websites of retirement homes in the Czech Republic that are related to the supply of offered services. The evaluated websites of the retirement homes were selected in a way including all three types of the legal form of retirement homes (semi-budgetary units of regions, limited liability companies, church legal entities) that are present in this category of social services in the Czech Republic. The multi-criteria evaluation, performed by using the TOPSIS method, included 14 types of information (criteria). The TOPSIS method is based on the selection of the variant that is the closest one to the ideal variant and that is characterized by a vector. The results show that retirement homes insufficiently disclose several types of information. These include the conditions of acceptance into the retirement home, annual reports, some types of contact information, internal rules of the home, and the electronic link for the communication with the retirement home. In relation to the evaluation of the total level of 14 types of information being disclosed on the websites of retirement homes, it was revealed that 3% of them achieve an excellent level, 30% achieve a lesser than excellent level, 60% achieve a low level, and 7% of retirement homes achieve a very low level.
Democracy, Lobbying and Economics
Authors: Žák Milan
Published: September 2019

The paper deals with the issue of lobbying, defined as a democratic means of promoting interests. The text tries to find answers to the problems in the current economic theory. The basic links are defined by using a simple graphic model, which are further examined by the SWOT analysis. The result is the knowledge that the basic coordination mechanism is the market – the information market. The role of government lies above all in creating a favourable institutional environment that does not interfere with spontaneous market relations. However, there are certain situations that the government could or should regulate. These situations are described by three hypothetical scenarios – a society without lobbying, a society where lobbing exists, but it is not transparent, and a society where lobbing is transparent, leading to a final discussion of possible directions and ways of its regulation.

Acute vascular pathology of the intestine is a collective concept that includes a number of conditions that develop due to insufficient supply of oxygen and nutrients to tissues. One of these conditions is an аcute mesenteric ischemia (AMIO). Diagnosis of AMIO reserves a lot of unresolved issues, in which CT angiography is the main method. Treatment of patients depends on the form of the course and stage of the disease. We present the case of a violation of the mesenteric blood circulation in a man against the background of poisoning by alcohol substitutes.
Influential Factors of Successful Hepatitis C Treatment in Elderly Patients
Authors: Andres Jennifer , Noval Mandee , Mauriello Christine , Peiffer Derek , Zhao Huaqing
Published: September 2019

Background: Chronic Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an infection associated with an increased risk of cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and morbidity and mortality. Treating HCV poses challenges in the elderly population due to the lack of evidence and complexity of patients.

Objective: This study aims to evaluate factors that influence HCV treatment success in elderly patients, especially those over age of 70, such as pill burden and comorbidities, in addition to drug interactions and adverse effects.

Methods: This was a retrospective chart review of patients treated at our urban academic institution from 2014-2016.

Results: Sixty-two patients over the age of 70 were included in this study. The sustained virologic response rate 12 weeks after the completion of treatment (SVR12) was 79%. In a multi-variate analysis, cirrhosis, age closer to 70, and longer duration of treatment were statistically significantly more likely to lead to treatment failure. Though not statistically significant, other factors that may negatively influence achievement of SVR12 were cognitive impairment, cardiovascular disease, multi-tablet HCV regimen, time to initiation of HCV treatment > 90 days, and prior treatment experience. Pill burden of other prescribed medications did not impact SVR12. Adverse events and drug interactions were common in the population.

Conclusions: Overall SVR12 rate in the elderly population was lower than that reported in the literature. Factors associated with lower treatment success, especially cirrhosis, should be considered when treating an elderly population. Further data is needed on the impact of other factors on SVR12 attainment in an elderly patient population.

Authors: Curcio Carmen Lucía , Payan Villamizar Claudia , Jiménez Abelardo , Gómez Fernando
Published: September 2019

Objective: To describe the presence of abuse in elderly people in Colombia and its association with socio-demographic and functional conditions. 
Methods: Cross-sectional and descriptive research. Data were taken from the SABE Colombia Survey, a population study, with a national representative sample of 23,694 adults aged over 60 years. Presence and type of abuse by partners or family members, members were investigated. Generalized linear models with Poisson link function were used to estimate the causes of the prevalence of abuse by area of residence, region, age, sex, dependence on activities of daily living and living arrangements. 
Results: 15.1% of the elderly in Colombia reported some type of abuse, and over 50% reported more than one form of abuse. Abuse proportion is greater in people who are aged 60-69, in women, people with lower levels of education, people who belong to lower socioeconomic status, people who live alone, people who live with children, and people in urban areas. The most frequent abuse form is psychological, followed by neglect and physical abuse. Dependence on basic and instrumental daily living activities increases the probabilities of suffering abuse.
Conclusions: Home is a risky place for the elderly people, especially for those with functional dependence, those who belong to low socioeconomic strata and women. Results should encourage debate among researchers, professionals and decision makers on public policy about necessary actions and means to change violent family dynamics in homes with elderly people.
EngineeringPhotorhabdus luminescenstoxin complex (PTC) into a recombinant injection nanomachine
Authors: Ng´ang´a Peter Njenga , Ebner Julia K , Plessner Matthias , Aktories Klaus , Schmidt Gudula
Published: September 2019

Engineering delivery systems for proteins and peptides into mammalian cells is an ongoing challenge for cell biological studies as well as for therapeutic approaches.Photorhabdus luminescenstoxin complex (PTC) is a heterotrimeric protein complex able to deliver diverse protein toxins into mammalian cells. We engineered the syringe-like nanomachine for delivery of protein toxins from different species. In addition, we loaded the highly active copepod luciferaseMetridia longaM-Luc7 for accurate quantification of injected molecules. We suggest that besides the probable size limitation, the charge of the cargo also influences the efficiency of packing and transport into mammalian cells. Our data show that the PTC constitutes a powerful system to inject recombinant proteins, peptides, and potentially, other molecules into mammalian cells. In addition, in contrast to other protein transporters based on pore formation, the closed, compact structure of the PTC may protect cargo from degradation.

Above all description highly represent the gender discrimination among the women at all level.
Image Classification by Image Subsets for Fine-Grained Image Recognition
Authors: Morle Dario G.
Published: September 2019

Fine-grained image recognition is a problem in Computer Vision which focuses on discriminating between objects that appear similar. Two images of an object in this problem can appear vastly different while images from different classes can appear nearly identical. To solve this problem, one must determine regions of significance or salient regions of this image and determine the classification from these regions. Current approaches take the approach of a hard extraction of these regions or some small deviation off hard extraction. Furthermore, in most cases, these regions are used without the spatial context of the region positioning in the image, using an approach similar to the bag-of-words model found in natural language processing. The approach described in this paper will abandon salient region proposals, electing instead to decompose the image into a series of subsets. Each of these subsets will undergo the same feature extraction process, carried out by a series of convolution and pooling layers. The output of this process will be used as the input to a recurrent neural network, ultimately classify the initial image. In processing the image in this fashion, each of these subsets’ salience in the context of the larger classification will be determined. A standardized implementation of this architecture has not yet been completed. As such, results indicative of performance can not currently be determined.

Published: September 2019

Background: Head and neck cancer (HNC) is one of the most common cancers in Pakistan. Disease free survival in HNC remains poor due to inefficient loco-regional disease control. The aim of the present study was to assess the response rate and toxicity of concomitant vinorelbine and External radiation therapy (ERT) in advanced Head and Neck cancer in local Pakistani population. The study as per Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines was conducted at the oncology department of Nishat hospital Multan from 2015 to 2017.  

Methodology: An observational, prospective study with enrollment of 50 patients of advanced head and neck cancer was followed to analyze the outcome for radiosensitization. Primary tumor sites were tongue in 15 (30%) patients; lower lip in 6 (12%); buccal cavity in 5 (10%); cheek in 5 (10%); tonsil in 4 (8%); larynx in 6 (12%); hypopharynx in 5 (10%); and parotid in 4 (8%) patients. Initial clinical stage was: IV in 23 (46%) patients and III in 27 (54%) patients. Vinorelbine (VNB) was given at dose of 10 mg i.v. infusion weekly with ERT (3D conformal radiation plan). Response rate was evaluated after at least 8 doses. Response evaluation criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) was used to assess complete response (CR) and partial response (PR); progressive disease (PD) and stable disease (SD). Toxicity was assessed using common toxicity criteria version 3.0 (CTCV3.0).

Results: 44 out of 50 patients were evaluable for response rate and toxicity. Immediate response was 90% CR. After 24 months of followup CR, PR, SD, and PD were seen in 26 (59%), 6 (13%), 7 (15%) and 6 (13%) patients respectively. Grade III mucositis and dysphagia were observed in 19 (43%) and 8 (18%) patients respectively, grade III skin rash in 14 (30%) patients, grade-II peripheral neuropathy was seen in 3 (6%) patients.

Conclusion: The study showed that vinorelbine as a radiosensitizer in advanced HNC is a feasible option with acceptable toxicities. A large study is required to define its definite role.

Para ulama dalam menilai status suatu hadis memiliki perbedaan pemahaman dan cara pengambilan keseimpulan, perbedaan-perbedaan tersebut akan coba dilihat dalam tatanan teori yaitu ilmu hadis. Pemilihan tokoh al-Hâkim al-Naysâbûriy dan Ibnu al-Shalâh sangat beralasan karena keduanya mengarang kitab yang membahas ilmu hadis yang masyhur pada masanya. Kemunculan kitab-kitab ini terjadi pada masa-masa awal pembukuan ilmu hadis, maka diharapkan teori-teori yang dimunculkan bersifat orisinil. Al-Hâkim al-Naysâburiy membahas dalam kitab Ma’rifat‘Ulûm al-Hadîts, teori-teori ilmu hadîts yang berjumlah 52 cabang,  sedangkan teori Ibnu al-Shalâh tentang ilmu hadis dalam kitab Muqaddimah Ibn al-Shalâh berjumlah 65 cabang. Dari jumlah tersebut terdapat lebih kurang 29 teori yang sama-sama dibahas oleh al-Hâkim dan Ibnu al-Shalâh. Khusus kepada al-Hâkim, Ibnu al-Shalâh banyak membahas teori al-Hâkim, ada yang hanya disebutkan sebagai pembanding, namun ada yang dikritisi. Proses pembandingan dan pengkritisan ini membentuk suatu jalur kronologi  sejarah perkembangan ilmu hadis.

Authors: Brata Nugroho Trisnu
Published: September 2019

This article examines a work phenomenon in working system of public oil mining from the perspective of functionalism and conflict. This is a unique phenomenon because in Indonesia there are only four areas of public oil mining; in Bojonegoro, Blora, Musi Banyu Asin, and Langkat. The research employed ethnographic method. Data were collected through observation, participation observation, and in-depth interviews. Results and discussion indicate that there are mutually integrated elements in the work system of oil mining people. In the work activity sometimes internal conflict and external conflict occur. Internal conflict may occur due to different ideas or interests among those who work such as competition, wages, fraud, and injustice. External conflict can occur because of the oil mine ban, ban on making new wells, monopoly, destruction of refinery, interception, and arrest. Military/police were present in oil mining activity with an ambiguous role, which can be on Pertamina’s side at one time and on miners’ side at another.

The research result showed that street vendors’ strategies in dealing with the city government were devised in various ways, both covert and open ones. Covert resistance tended to be put up when street vendors were already in a weak position. However, when street vendors were in a firm position, they tended to choose open resistance. The theme of resistance was adjusted to the situation and policies imposed by the government. When eviction was carried out, street vendors’ resistance was focused on the effort to ask for space for trading. When relocation was carried out, street vendors’ resistance was put up to obtain strategic locations and empowerment programs. When the zoning system was applied, street vendors attempted to intervene in the criterion of green, yellow, and red zones.

As a factor that can cause landslides, human activities play a vital role in triggering landslides. In West Java Province, unstable soil conditions and environmentally unsound development, coupled with high rainfall are among other factors that most frequently trigger langslides.  Measures to overcome the risks can be done by developing a disaster alert village, as part of community participation. The objective of the present research is to discover the community knowledge and attitudes and the level of community participation in minimizing the risk of landslides. A mixed method was adopted. Findings reveal that the village of Alamendah is in an intermediate landslide zone, i.e., land movement occurs when rainfall is above normal, especially in areas bordering river valleys, swamps, road cliffs or slopes. The level of knowledge of the village community in landslide-prevention efforts remains relatively low.

Ways to Improve Quality Control of Culture Medium Used for Mycoplasma Detection

Published: September 2019

An urgent safety concern associated with biological products is contamination with mycoplasmas, which may originate from donor tissues and organs, virus harvests, culture medium components, trypsin, animal blood serum, as well as be transmitted by personnel involved in the manufacture of medicines. Currently, due to an increase in the range of biologicals available, there is a need for more sensitive and specific test methods. In the Russian practice, microbiological (culture-based) testing of finished pharmaceutical products for mycoplasma contamination is performed using complex culture media whose sensitivity depends on the quality of proteins, ingredients, and reagents used. Growth promotion properties of the media are determined according to the State Pharmacopoeia of the Russian Federation, 14th ed., using a single test strain — Mycoplasma arginini G230 (M. arginini G230 industry reference material). The aim of the study was to analyse current Russian and foreign requirements for the quality control of culture media that are used for mycoplasma detection, in order to update and improve the quality control procedure in Russia. It was demonstrated that a compelling advantage of the State Pharmacopoeia of the Russian Federation is the possibility of using a semi-liquid culture medium which does not require special aerobic or anaerobic incubation conditions and allows for quantification of mycoplasma colonies and determination of mycoplasma titre in culture medium while testing its growth promotion properties using reference М. arginini G230 test strain. The analysis revealed some differences in Russian and foreign requirements for quality evaluation of culture media. These differences were taken into account when developing recommendations for improvement of the Russian test procedure, i.e. enlarging the range of test strains used and development of respective reference standards.
Chantal Mouffe y el proyecto de la modernidad: pensar con y contra Carl Schmitt
Authors: Fraile Nicolás , Ricci Cernadas Gonzalo
Published: September 2019

El presente artículo restituye la obra de Chantal Mouffe dando cuenta del estrecho lazo que la vincula al paradigma moderno. La democracia agonal, propugnada por la pensadora belga, se comprende cabalmente sólo en el marco de esta perspectiva, como una crítica a los supuestos epistemológicos que están a la base de la reflexión política liberal y, a la vez, una rehabilitación de sus ideales de libertad e igualdad. Este doble movimiento es realizado a través de la recuperación de Carl Schmitt, quien funciona como insumo crítico y como horizonte a superar, en virtud de sus derivas antidemocráticas. El artículo da cuenta de este diálogo, a través de la restitución de la obra del jurista alemán, en vistas a ganar claridad conceptual a propósito de los límites y las posibilidades de la agonística. 
From stormy seas to the doldrums: The challenges of navigating towards an ecologically coherent MPA network through England’s Marine Conservation Zone process
Authors: Lieberknecht Louise M. , Jones Peter JS
Published: September 2019

There is an on-going process to establish Marine Conservation Zones (MCZs) in England, to form part of a coherent and representative network of marine protected areas under national and EU legislation. From 2009 to 2011, the MCZ process included strong participatory elements. Four regional multi-sector stakeholder groups developed MCZ recommendations collaboratively, in line with ecological guidance provided by the Government's nature conservation advisers. This guidance was based on Government policy principles, including that MCZs should be designated based on ‘best available evidence’. This paper analyses the multi-dimensional conflicts that emerged within the stakeholder group in south-west England, which were magnified by uncertainty about future MCZ management. In September 2011, after working through these conflicts through trade-offs and negotiations, the stakeholder groups jointly recommended 127 MCZs to Government. The process subsequently shifted to a top-down approach, with further stakeholder engagement limited to bilateral consultation. There was a concurrent shift in policy, from a broad-scale network-level focus towards single-feature conservation. A lengthy series of evidence reviews concluded that the existing evidence at the time was insufficient to progress with the designation of most sites, marking a clear departure from the policy principle of proceeding with the designation of a representative network based on ‘best available evidence’, and effectively undermining the work carried out by stakeholder groups. Though MCZ designation was originally timetabled for 2012, in November 2013 just 27 of the recommended 127 MCZs were designated in a first tranche. At the time, no clear timetable was in place for subsequent tranches.
