A regulação do Ensino Superior como interface da regra do funcionalismo público: a carreira docente em Angola
Authors: Manuel Tuca
Published: January 2021

Gerar a compreensão sobre o percurso regulatório do ensino superior em Angola é o objetivo do presente artigo, implicando para além da perscrutação dos pacotes legislativos, o acesso às lógicas, práticas e estratégias de sua implementação pelas Instituições do Ensino Superior (IES). Durante a investigação sobre a cultura organizacional da universidade, um estudo de caso institucional no âmbito do doutoramento em sociologia da educação pela Universidade do Minho, foi possível apreender a partir das entrevistas, da análise documental e do inqiêrito por questionário na escala de likert, que a evocação de instrumentos de natureza avaliativa assentes na lógica de entrada/saída, de fluxos e de tarefas revelaram-se insuficientes para criar a integridade socio-organizacional da regulação. As variantes dos Estatutos da Carreira Docente (ECD) ao longo de mais de três décadas da única Universidade Pública no País - Universidade Agostinho Neto (UAN), premiaram uma regulação que entrelaçada por lógicas de racionalização e de optimização em nome do desenvolvimento e da competitividade económica, (des)contextualizam-se devido ao mimetismo à regra do funcionalismo público na concepção e na gestão do ECD e normas conexas.

Published: January 2021

The chemical composition and acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity of the essential oil from the leaf of Cyathocalyx pruniferus growing in Pahang, Malaysia was investigated for the first time. The essential oil was obtained by hydrodistillation and fully characterized by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A total of thirty chemical components (95.53%) were successfully identified in the essential oil which was characterized by high proportions of α-pinene (25.40%), germacrene D (20.20%), β-caryophyllene (10.78%), and δ-cadinene (6.44%). Acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity was evaluated against the Ellman method, and the essential oil showed good inhibition against acetylcholinesterase (I: 75.5%) assay. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study of the composition of the essential oil report concerning the genus Cyathocalyx.

Authors: PHAT Dao Tan , TUYEN Kha Chan , HUYNH Xuan Phong , TRUC Tran Thanh
Published: January 2021

Hydrodistillation was used to obtain the essential oil from pomelo (Citrus grandis L.) peels collected in Vietnam. The effects of extraction variables including size of material, temperature, extraction time, and water-to-material ratio on the yield of essential oil were investigated. In addition, to assess the quality of pomelo essential oil, the chemical composition was compared. The optimized conditions were as follows: material size of grind, temperature 120 °C, water to material ratio 5 mL/g, and extraction time 105 min., respectively. The chemical composition of the pomelo oil was then determined by GC-MS, where 5 components were identified, of which, limonene was the highest (97.1%). This method can be considered as a green method of extraction method as it is less energy intensive process and offers high performance. The results are expected to aid in justification of hydrodistillation in industrial applications and in refining of extraction parameters.

Authors: VALAREZO Eduardo , MERİNO Gabriela , CRUZ-ERAZO Claudia , CARTUCHE Luis
Published: January 2021

In the present research, the essential oil from Piper lineatum Ruiz & Pav. was analysed by GC/MS and GC/FID, respectively. A total of thirty-seven chemical compounds were identified, which represented 98.9% of the essential oil composition. The main compounds were apiole (21.5%), safrole (19.2%), and myristicin (13.8%), respectively. The in vitro antimicrobial activity and antifungal activity of the oil was assayed against two Gram positive bacteria, five Gram negative bacteria and two fungi. The essential oil from P. lineatum showed an inhibitory activity against Gram-positive bacterium Klebsiella pneumoniae (ATCC 9997), and against dermatophytic fungus Trichophyton rubrum (ATCC 28188) with a MIC of 500 μg/mL in both cases. The antioxidant activity of essential oil was explored using DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging method, by means of both assays the essential oil showed a weak antioxidant activity. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the chemical composition and biological activity of essential oil from this species.
Efecto de dos inductores florales sobre la floración y producción de café
Authors: Unigarro Carlos Andres , Díaz Bejarano Lina Marcela , Trejos Pinzón Jhon Félix
Published: January 2021

En algunos cultivos perennes el uso de inductores ha logrado incrementar la floración y, por ende, la producción de frutos; no obstante, en café es una alternativa poco explorada. En la presente investigación se evaluó el efecto de los inductores florales ácido giberélico y/o nitrato de potasio durante la inducción de nudos sobre la floración y producción en un genotipo de café variedad Castillo®. El estudio se realizó en la Estación Experimental Naranjal, localizada en Chinchiná, Caldas (Colombia), con plantas de café del genotipo CX2720 establecido a una densidad de 3.333 plantas/ha, con dos tallos por sitio. En un diseño de bloques completos al azar con cinco repeticiones, se evaluaron los inductores de floración: ácido giberélico (GA3 - 100 mg L-1), nitrato de potasio (KNO3 - 15 g L-1), su combinación (GA3 + KNO3), además de un testigo sin aplicación. Las aplicaciones se realizaron en noviembre para afectar la floración del primer semestre (enero - junio) del siguiente año. Se registró el número de botones florales promedio por rama, la producción de café cereza y las tasas medias de crecimiento absoluto para diámetro de tallo, altura de tallo y el número de nudos plagiotrópicos. La aplicación de ácido giberélico (GA3) y/o nitrato de potasio (KNO3) no incrementó el número de botones florales, la producción de café cereza o el crecimiento vegetativo. El semestre de mayor precipitación disminuyó la sincronía floral entre los diferentes tratamientos respecto a los períodos más secos.

Authors: Echeverri-Giraldo Luz Fanny , Ortiz Aristófeles , Gallego Claudia Patricia , Imbachí Luis Carlos
Published: January 2021

La fracción lipídica del grano de café, así como los compuestos que la componen, cumplen una función importante en la calidad sensorial del café. Esta investigación tuvo como objetivo caracterizar químicamente, la fracción lipídica del café verde en las variedades Tabi, Cenicafé 1 y Castillo® Naranjal, Castillo® El Tambo y Castillo® Pueblo Bello, procedentes de lotes cultivados en diferentes localidades de Colombia durante dos años de cosecha. Se determinaron los contenidos de lípidos totales, la composición de ácidos grasos (palmítico, esteárico, oleico, linoleico, araquídico) y los isómeros ?-, ?-, ?-, y ?- Tocoferol. Las muestras se evaluaron sensorialmente, de acuerdo con el método empleado por Almacafé, según la norma NTC 4883. El contenido promedio de lípidos totales varió entre 10,7-12,3% en base seca (b.s), presentando diferencias significativas para la variedad Tabi con respecto a las demás variedades. Los contenidos promedios de tocoferoles (vitamina E) estuvieron en el rango entre 40,6-60,2 mg de vitamina E/100 g aceite de café, se destaca el isómero ?-Tocoferol por contenidos superiores a los reportados. En cuanto a la composición de ácidos grasos, se identificaron como ácidos mayoritarios al ácido palmítico con un contenido entre 38,7-40,5%, seguido por el ácido linoleico con un contenido promedio entre 34,1%-37,9%. Respecto a la evaluación sensorial, el atributo impresión global clasificó en promedio la calidad en taza de las variedades como muestras estándar, con valores de rangos de calificación inferiores a 4,5 debido posiblemente a un proceso de poscosecha deficiente, el cual tiene incidencia en la calidad de la bebida.

Authors: Góngora Carmenza Esther , Gil-Palacio Zulma
Published: January 2021

Las cochinillas de las raíces del café son una plaga limitante en la caficultura colombiana y Puto barberi (Cockerell, 1895) (Hemiptera: Putoidae) es la especie que prevalece. Con el objetivo de proponer una estrategia para el control de esta plaga, se evaluaron en el laboratorio las cepas de Metarhizium anisopliae Ma 9236 y M. robertsii a concentraciones de 1x107 conidias/mL, con mortalidades entre 80% y 84% sobre P. barberi. También se evaluaron en plántulas de café infestadas con la plaga en tres ensayos. En el primero se emplearon plantas de 4 a 6 meses de edad, infestadas con hembras oviplenas de P. barberi, tratadas con 50 cm3 de: 1. M. anisopliae, 2. M. robertsii, ambos a 2x1010 conidias/L, y 3. agua como control. Con el agua, el porcentaje de infestación fue de 100% y se encontraron 25 cochinillas por planta. La aplicación de M. anisopliae disminuyó en 10% la infestación de la cochinilla y redujo la población en 55%. M. robertsii disminuyó la infestación en 40% y la población del insecto en 86%. En el ensayo 2 se comparó M. robertsii vs. agua con resultados similares al ensayo 1 y con una protección del 50% de las plantas. En el ensayo 3, los tratamientos correspondieron a: 1. M. robertsii (2x1010 conidias/L), 2. azadiractina 6% polvo soluble en agua (3 g/L), 3. clorpirifos 75% WG (3 g/L) y 4. Agua. En el tratamiento control agua el porcentaje de infestación fue del 65%, en los demás tratamientos las infestaciones estuvieron entre 11% y 22% difiriendo del control, pero siendo estadísticamente similares entre sí. M. robertsii es un candidato para ser evaluado en almácigos comerciales y campo.

Empire, économie et mobilité sociale : une dynamique occultée de la pensée économique de James Harrington
Authors: Borot Luc
Published: January 2021

Alors que la pensée de James Harrington, souvent associée à l’utopisme, repose sur un véritable matérialisme, alors qu’il appuie sa vision de l’histoire et de la citoyenneté sur des phénomènes économiques, il semble peu au fait des réalités et surtout des théories de son temps dans ce domaine. On cherche à montrer comment ses propos sur l’économie et le commerce entrent dans une stratégie d’exposition qualitative et non quantitative, et à quel point il est sensible aux dimensions socio-économiques que convoque sa théorie.
Channelling meaning from the margins
Authors: Bobeica Cezara
Published: January 2021

Henry Peacham est une figure singulière au sein de l’emblématique anglaise du début du XVIIe siècle. C’est dans le Minerva Britanna, recueil d’emblèmes publié en 1612 que s’exprime tout le talent de Peacham. Premier livre d’emblèmes à être illustré par l’auteur lui-même, le Minerva Britanna est également le premier livre d’emblèmes anglais à être redevable à l’Iconologia de Cesare Ripa, dont l’édition illustrée date de 1603. Mais Ripa n’est pas la seule source de Peacham, une impressionnante accumulation de sources bibliques, antiques et patristiques complète la liste des intertextes qui lui servent de modèle, créant ainsi une œuvre palimpseste et polyphonique singulière. C’est ainsi par le maniement habile des sources citées en paratexte que Peacham construit une persona à facettes multiples dont la voix discordante est placée stratégiquement dans le hors-texte de quelques emblèmes-intrus que nous analyserons.
The “force of commerce,” capitalism, and the common good in early American history
Authors: Middleton Simon
Published: January 2021

Cet article expose le débat concernant le rapport entre le commerce, le progrès, la création de richesse et le bonheur depuis les dix-septième et dix-huitième siècles jusqu’à aujourd’hui. Il avance l’argument suivant : dès l’origine, les analystes étaient divisés entre les optimistes qui louaient les potentialités lucratives et humanitaires du commerce et de la société civile, et des voix plus critiques qui décriaient l’intérêt personnel inhérent au commerce, intérêt justifiant divers processus antisociaux et déshumanisants, qu’il s’agisse de la parcellisation des terres communes, de la colonisation, ou encore de l’exploitation liée au travail pouvant aller jusqu’à l’asservissement et au commerce d’êtres humains. Dès avant les années 1840, ces positions opposées avaient provoqué un débat entre les chantres et les détracteurs du capitalisme concernant sa relation avec le bien commun. À en juger par les menaces contemporaines que font peser sur nos vies l’urgence climatique et la pandémie de Covid-19, ce débat reste essentiel. Le présent article expose brièvement l’historiographie récente concernant l’histoire du capitalisme en lien avec la Jeune Amérique, ainsi que la relation que cette historiographie entretient avec Marx et sa critique de l’économie politique classique ; il pose la question de savoir dans quelle mesure la critique marxiste représente un contrepoint efficace à l’éthique capitaliste et à ses effets sociaux. Il se termine par une réflexion sur des travaux critiques récents ayant Marx pour objet et affirme qu’une relecture renouvelée et revigorée de Smith et de Marx pourrait, à l’avenir, ouvrir des perspectives de recherche fructueuses.
“I shall not trouble the reader”: Gulliver’s Travels, readers and reading
Authors: Menzies Ruth
Published: January 2021

Judicieux, candides, curieux, indulgents, doux, courtois, ignorants… les lecteurs de Lemuel Gulliver sont caractérisés de diverses manières. Aussi convenus qu’ils puissent paraître, ces adjectifs font partie intégrante de la relation complexe que Jonathan Swift tisse avec ses lecteurs. Ces apostrophes, en proposant différents types de lecteur, mettent en évidence un procédé métatextuel par lequel Gulliver’s Travels étudie le rapport entre le texte et ses lecteurs, ainsi que sa propre textualité. Certains de ces adjectifs pourraient inciter les lecteurs réels à estimer qu’ils posséderaient de tels atouts, tandis qu’ils seraient sûrement tentés d’en attribuer d’autres uniquement à des lecteurs hypothétiques. La satire de Swift, pourtant, empêche pareille réaction, contraignant les lecteurs à examiner leur propre nature ainsi que leur statut de lecteur et à réfléchir à la lecture tout en la pratiquant. Bien que le narrateur affirme de manière répétée ne pas vouloir « déranger le lecteur », lire Gulliver’s Travels n’en demeure pas moins une expérience profondément troublante.
Opening American Commerce with Canton: From the Empress of China to the Columbia Rediviva (1784-1793)
Authors: Sioli Marco
Published: January 2021

L’arrivée de l’Empress of China à Canton après une traversée de six mois sur l’océan Atlantique et l’océan Pacifique, commencée à New York le 22 février 1784, marque le début du commerce avec la Chine pour les Américains. La réussite de cette traversée, qui permit de rapporter aux États-Unis du thé, de la porcelaine, de la soie et des épices avec un bénéfice de 25%, et le rôle actif joué par Samuel Shaw, Consul américain à Canton, encouragea l’investissement dans le commerce avec la Chine. L’un des navires qui s’y livra, le Columbia Rediviva, commandé par le capitaine Robert Gray, fut le premier vaisseau américain à faire le tour du monde, transportant des fourrures en provenance de la côte nord-ouest des États-Unis vers les marchés cantonais, où elles furent échangées contre du thé et de la porcelaine. Œuvrant tant à la gloire de leur pays qu’à leur profit personnel, ces deux commandants de navires inaugurèrent le commerce avec la Chine, lequel nourrit la participation de l’Amérique au commerce mondial.
Totalité et infini  de la machine à tout dire de Gulliver’s Travels : du programme littéraire au programme informatique
Authors: Derome Amélie
Published: January 2021

La machine à tout dire de l’Académie de Lagado au troisième voyage de Gulliver’s Travels relève du fantasme de la compilation de l’ensemble des textes possibles. L’engin imaginaire préfigure la pensée probabiliste en mathématiques et les progrès du natural language processing en matière de génération automatique de textes et de traductions. La réalité de la machine, cependant, paraît briser l’idéal d’infini que la fiction contenait en germe. La satire swiftienne révélait, au XVIIIe siècle, le danger que représente la pensée de l’infini à partir d’un nombre fini. En effet, les algorithmes ne produisent plus l’infinité de possibilités escomptée, mais tendent au contraire à l’unification du discours. La machine ayant quitté le cadre de la fiction n’est plus porteuse d’infini, mais procédé de totalisation des textes. L’impopularité de ce passage paraît ainsi tenir, dans une certaine mesure, au malaise qu’il suscite face aux nouvelles formes d’humanismes liées à l’intelligence artificielle que propose aujourd’hui la Silicon Valley.
The World, Gulliver, and the Critic
Authors: Zimpfer Nathalie
Published: January 2021

L’univers satirique des Voyages de Gulliver est constitué d’incertitudes et de dualités non résolues. Nous suggérons dans cet essai que, par homothétie, tout discours critique sur les Voyages se doit d’être régi par une logique similaire, faisant de la contradiction sa caractéristique majeure. De même que la vision obsessionnellement monofocale de Gulliver ne lui permet pas de restituer les réalités qu’il côtoie de manière adéquate, de même, les modèles interprétatifs univoques ne sauraient rendre compte de la complexité du chef‑d’œuvre de Swift, dont l’ambiguïté morale et les jeux de miroir sans fin lui assurent une paradoxale pérennité.
Jane Marcet’s lessons to the lesser educated about the political economy of foreign trade
Authors: Sippel Alexandra
Published: January 2021

This paper analyses Jane Marcet’s lessons about foreign trade in her two main pedagogical volumes. A disciple and friend of all the major thinkers who turned political economy into a science commanding as much respect as Newton’s, Marcet was a mouthpiece of choice to spread the word to the ladies, and then to the working classes. E.P. Thompson, among others, pointed out how Malthus was accused by the radical, working-class movements of de-moralising political economy. Marcet follows in her mentor’s footsteps, and this study suggests that not only does she take foreign trade (and hence luxury consumption) out of the realm of morals, but that in doing so, she takes away from ladies and workers alike their blossoming political role as conscientious consumers. Teaching political economy shows that Marcet recognised their intellectual capabilities, but teaching it as an incontrovertible science was also a way of silencing their claims, supposedly inspired by superficial sentiments rather than by sound reason.
Adoption of green practices in manufacturing SMEs: some lessons from Kochi, Kerala, India
Authors: Dissanayake Kumudinei , Premaratne S. P. , Ranwala Sudheera , Melegoda Nayani
Published: January 2021

Adopting green practices in the manufacturing sector has become a requirement for achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Manufacturing Small and Medium scale Enterprises (SMEs) play a major role in the industrial sector in Sri Lanka. However their contribution towards reaching a green economy is not well documented. Efforts in adopting green practices, failures or success stories, and the problems and issues associated with green manufacturing in SMEs are yet to be examined in depth in the Sri Lankan context. As a means of acquiring a priori knowledge on the reality, this study aims to explore the green practices, challenges and strategies, and the required institutional support for implementing and sustaining such practices in manufacturing SME sin a geographical location similar to Sri Lanka i.e., Kochi, India. Thus, the objective of this study is to identify important lessons from experiences undergone by manufacturing SMEs in the adoption of green practices in their businesses. This is an exploratory study conducted by collecting qualitative data from interviewing the stakeholders of selected manufacturing SMEs visited for this purpose. The study takes a deductive approach, deriving its analytical framework from the review of literature. A set of green practices, challenges to be anticipated, and the institutional and policy support required in implementing and sustaining green practices in manufacturing SMEs are identified as lessons to be learned. The study concludes that the successful implementation and sustaining of green practices in manufacturing SMEs need their own will and drive of owners and employees, supported by government intervention for promoting and ensuring sustainable green practices. The findings of the study propose a conceptualization for validating in a future empirical study.
Politics perception and satisfaction among school teachers: the moderating role of emotional intelligence
Authors: James R.
Published: January 2021

Emotional intelligence has become a fundamental construct in recent management researches. However, no detailed study available that investigate the effect of Emotional intelligence (EI) on the influence of perceived organizational politics on work outcomes of teachers. This study fills this gap by investigating the moderating role of EI on the relationship between perceived organizational politics and satisfaction among school teachers. The study was conducted with 276 school teachers in the northern part of Sri Lanka, and the data were analyzed employing appropriate statistical tools. This study explored that perceived organizational politics had a significant and negative impact on satisfaction among school teachers. Also, this study disclosed that EI moderates the relationship between perceived organizational politics and satisfaction. The results show that higher EI levels lead to a weaker relationship between politics and satisfaction, while lower levels of EI leads to a stronger relationship between politics and satisfaction. This study contributes to both theory and practice by investigating the influence of organizational politics on satisfaction among school teachers in Sri Lankan context which is a group ignored in the previous studies and introducing teachers' EI as moderating variable in the said relationship.
Influence of locus of control on job stress of teachers in Jaffna
Authors: Raveendran Thaneswary , Sivaneswaran Anusha
Published: January 2021

The present study sought to investigate the relationship between locus of control and stress among school teachers. Teaching job is regarded as one of the most stressful occupation, but so far, no study explored the association between locus of control and stress of school teachers in Jaffna. Although previous research results have indicated that there is an association between personality and behavioral outcomes, there has been little attention paid to some of the personality factors that may impact these relationships. The purpose of this study is to examine the job stress, internal and external locus tendencies and the relationship between the two construct. Subjects were drawn from randomly selected schools from Jaffna Zone. 186teachers participated in this study. Locus of control was measured using Locus of Control Scale and stress level was measured using Perceived Stress Scale. The result indicates that individuals with a higher external locus of control are more likely to have higher levels of job stress.
Predictors of anticipated coping behavior at myocardial infarction symptom onset among a nationwide sample of Korean adults
Authors: Park Kyong Sil
Published: January 2021

OBJECTIVES: This cross-sectional study based on the health belief model investigated predictors of anticipated coping behavior at myocardial infarction (MI) symptom onset using secondary data from the 2017 Korea Community Health Survey.METHODS: Modifying variables (socioeconomic, health knowledge, perceived threat) were selected as independent variables and anticipated coping behavior at MI symptom onset as the dependent variable. Calling 911 was classified as the correct anticipated coping behavior, while visiting a hospital or an oriental hospital, calling family, and others were classified as incorrect.RESULTS: Of 227,740 participants, 83.2% reported correct anticipated coping behaviors. The likelihood of calling 911 was low if participants experienced atypical symptoms (jaw, neck, back, arm, and shoulder pain), even if they were aware of those symptoms. However, 69.9% of participants who were aware of typical symptoms (chest pain) stated that they would call-911. Sex, age, hypertension, dyslipidemia, obesity, and awareness of MI symptoms affected the correct anticipated coping behavior.CONCLUSIONS: Correct coping abilities among the general public are vitally important for early treatment of MI patients and reduction of hospitalization time. Members of the general public in their 20s and 30s, 60 years of age or older, with cardiovascular risk factors (male sex, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and obesity), and who are not aware of MI symptoms should be educated about the typical and atypical symptoms of MI. Emergency medical services should be called without delay if needed, and public relations activities should be carried out to raise awareness that anyone can use emergency medical services.

Amyloidosis is a rare disease characterised by abnormal amyloid protein deposition within the affected tissue. About 37% of the patients were presented with systemic amyloidosis, of which hilar, mediastinal, and para-aortic lymph nodes were involved. Deposition of amyloid protein in the mesenteric lymph node is rarely documented, but when reported, it is seen in isolated or secondary amyloidosis. Despite an indistinguishable imaging appearance of the amyloid- deposit mesenteric node from malignancy, infection, and an inflammation process, the radiologists should be aware of variable imaging findings to be suspicious of amyloidosis. We reported a rare case of systemic amyloidosis with mesenteric node involvement, manifested as node enlargement.
Imaging features of pulmonary involvement in a case of systemic amyloidosis: A classic case
Authors: Saneha Pattharapong , Tongsuk Thanarak , Bhuthathorn Laksika
Published: January 2021

Amyloidosis is a disease caused by pathologic extracellular deposition of abnormal insoluble proteins throughout the body [1]. Pulmonary amyloidosis is a form of amyloid deposition confined in the lung parenchyma and may cause airway obstruction, dysphagia, and chronic pleural effusions, often with nonspecific chest imaging findings [1,2].

A 56-year-old male with underlying light chain multiple myeloma and systemic amyloidosis presented with fever for 2 days without dyspnea or cough.  Further chest imaging revealed nonspecific findings including consolidations, ground-glass opacities, interlobular septal thickening in both upper lobes, and bilateral pleural effusions; a diagnosis of pneumonia with pulmonary edema was made. After the patient failed to respond to treatment, bronchoscopy with tissue biopsy was performed for unresolving pneumonia. Histopathological results were consistent with pulmonary amyloidosis.

Utiliza o método de abordagem dedutivo e os métodos de procedimento funcionalista e monográfico no estudo crítico do papel dos algoritmos na internet e as implicações no contexto da informação tangente à democracia e a direitos fundamentais, e também no estudo de casos em que possivelmente se identifica o ocorrido. As técnicas de pesquisa foram a bibliográfica e a documental. Resulta que os algoritmos apresentam riscos à democracia pois reforçam conteúdos que violam direitos ou que são falsos, prejudicando a construção de uma realidade comum e de uma política justa; e, ainda, ameaçam o livre debate e a pluralidade de pensamento, uma vez que retroalimentam práticas e conceitos nocivos aos usuários que são supostamente interessados nesses assuntos.

FLUORIDE CONCENTRATION AND OTHER ELEMENTS IN TOOTH STRUCTURE AND ITS EFFECT ON DENTAL CARIES IN KIRKUK, IRAQ
Authors: Ali Abbas
Published: January 2021

The study involved the determination of fluoride and other elements like Mn, Na, Mg, Si, K, Ca, Fe, Al, Cl and some trace elements (Cr, Cd, Ni, Zn, Pb, Sr, As, Co, Cu, Mo and Se) in 220 teeth samples with age group ranging from 6–45 year. The average concentration of fluoride in samples were less than the global average, and the total contents of fluoride in the children deciduous teeth are relatively higher than that of permanent teeth. The infection rate of dental caries in children seen in age between 6–11 years and increasing after the age of 12 due to certain environmental factors, age, water and food quality, so there is a strong relationship between the rising amount of fluoride concentration in the area and reducing the rate of dental caries. The study also determines the different limits and importantly the optimum value of fluoride concentration in drinking water of Kirkuk City which is done by correlation with the mean value of the maximum daily temperature of the city over the last five years, and also taking in consideration that human gets the fluoride from a different source such as food, air and tooth paste, so we correlate our finding with the rate of fluoride taken from other sources which not greater than 6mg/day, according to World Health Organization (WHO), in order to avoid the hyper fluorosis (excess fluoride).
ENVIRONMENTAL GEOCHEMISTRY AND ASSESSMENT OF POLLUTION BY VANADIUM IN TOP SOIL OF KIRKUK, NORTHERN IRAQ
Authors: Afloog Haider
Published: January 2021

The vanadium geochemistry was estimated in the topsoil of Kirkuk, northern Iraq, and its potential sources are forecasted by using multivariate statistical analysis as useful tools in this field, in addition to assessing soil pollution with vanadium by using individual indices such as enrichment factor, geo-accumulation index (Igeo) and contamination factor (CF). Eighteen topsoil samples were collected with a depth ranges 0–20cm, and analyzed by using the inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometer technique (ICP-MS). The results showed that the concentration of vanadium ranged from 37-51 mg/kg, with an average of 46 mg/kg, relatively it was high concentrations in the agricultural and residential areas compared to the industrial areas. Statistical analysis indicated the contribution of oil combustion and the use of phosphate fertilizers in increasing vanadium concentrations in topsoil. Pollution indices of enrichment factor were in the minimal enrichment category for all samples, geo accumulation index was non-contamination categories for all samples, while Contamination factor was low for all samples.
ESTIMATION OF ANNUAL RUNOFF AND PEAK FLOW AT NAZANIN CATCHMENT IN ERBIL, KURDISTAN REGION USING DIFFERENT APPROACHES
Authors: Aziz Yaseen
Published: January 2021

Runoff is excess rainfall or a portion of rainfall that flows over the watershed. In un-gauged streams, due to lack of data, many methods are used for runoff estimation. In this paper annual runoff and peak flow of Nazanin watershed were estimated at Nazanin Dam location using different methods. Soil Conservation Service (SCS) method, basin relation, (Hydrologic Engineering Center – Hydrologic Modeling System) HEC-HMS and Hydrologic engineering center (HEC-1) models were provided. The Watershed Modeling System (WMS) package was used for watershed delineation and computation of curve number. The area of Nazanin catchment is 72.14 km2, and the composite curve number is 81.3. The results of average annual rainfall estimated using the basin relationship method are more than that obtained from SCS method. The results of peak flood discharge for different return periods using different approaches such as SCS method, HEC-HMS and HEC-1 models are very close. But the results of basin relation are lower than SCS method. From the results of comparison, it was observed that HEC-HMS and HEC-1 models can be used for generation flood hydrograph at ungagged watershed.

Authors: Al-khuzaie Dounia
Published: January 2021

The quantitative and qualitative physic-chemical properties considered in more than 15 geographical sites were selected along the Iraqi coastline. The grain size analysis and the EC, pH, TDS, K, Na, Mg, Ca, HCO3, Cl, SO4 were estimated in the sediments sample. Three types of soil textures dominate which are sandy clay, sandy clay loam and clay loam were observed in the present study. The results show that the pH value ranges from7.67-8.19, EC (23-68.45 dS/m), TDS (14720-43808 ppm), Na (6388-20746 ppm), K (73.225-211.875ppm), Ca (306.25-537.5 ppm), Mg (675-2475ppm), Cl (6160-18350 ppm), SO4 (1680-4080 ppm), HCO3 (93.75-225 ppm), SAR (37.61-107.95). The analytical results for the surface samples presented the impact of both solodization and salinization processes. They are shown from the high values of EC and domination of Na in the exchangeable complex. The ions occur in the following concentration order: Na > Mg > Ca > K and Cl > SO4 > HCO3.

Published: January 2021

Islamic banking has seen a lot of progress and attracted global attention. It has also attracted multiple studies and research. Lexicography has been part of the areas touched upon by research to provide the necessary tools to comprehend terms and concepts related to Islamic financial terminology. Having said that, the inadequacy of the studies and works has shown an area that awaits further improvement and investigation. Thus, the current paper aims to provide a brief review of a dictionary called Dictionary of Financial and Economic Terms in the Register of Jurists by Nazih Hammad (2008). The introductory matter, content, and structure are analysed in comparison to lexicographic works. Finally, recommendations are made to improve similar works.

Authors: Zyablikov Alexey
Published: January 2021

The article analyzes the problems of dramatic works by V. S. Rozov, reveals the underlying ideological, social and moral conflicts. The main one is the clash of youthful impulse to truth, human dignity and beauty and a false world of imaginary values, the interpreters and advocates of which are often people who are endowed with ranks, academic degrees, social status and professional right to influence the minds and tastes of the younger generation. The article characterizes literary characters, acting as carriers of various life ideas. It reveals the reasons for the writer’s ambiguous assessment of people of arts, education and science. The playwright’s position is revealed in the context of discussions about the social mission of the intelligentsia, its special responsibility and duties. Generation gap is viewed in the context of social processes characterized by the deformation of value priorities and affecting the mood of the youth. It is stated that the protest mood of the young generation is directly proportional to the measure of lies, evil and injustice that characterizes the state of mind and soul of adults. The conclusion is drawn that V. S. Rozov, as a researcher of the generational gap, continues and develops the traditions of Russian classical literature.
The concept of «intelligentsia» though the eyes of modern Russian youth: a sociological study
Authors: Skryabina Elena , Kuleshova Inna
Published: January 2021

The article analyzes a unique empirical material obtained in the course of a sociological study, the purpose of which is to reveal the content of the concept «intelligentsia» as it is comprehended by modern Russian youth. The author studies the correlation of this content with the traditional under-standing of the intelligentsia, presented in the leading Russian sociological approaches: socio-economic, cultural, social-ethical, and others. The main method of collecting primary sociological information is a questionnaire survey, which allows respondents to rank psychological, cognitive, socio-role, moral and ethical markers of the intelligentsia, as well as the markers that characterize the overall level of culture and education of a person. It is revealed that as the main ones, respondents use blocks that cover cognitive characteristics and markers of the general level of culture and upbringing. Moral, ethical and psychological properties and qualities are taken into account to a much lesser extent, while traditional social markers (belonging to a certain social stratum/group/class, profession/occupation/type of occupation, social attitudes and motivation, etc.) remain the outsiders of the sample. Based on the obtained data, a collective image of the intelligentsia through the eyes of modern Russian youth is formed. An opinion about the relevance of the resulting image to almost any person who has received a decent upbringing and education (regardless of the country of residence of this person, their civil position, moral and psychological qualities and characteristics, etc.) is discussed. It is concluded that modern Russian youth, who are not familiar with the etymology and classical interpretations of the concept of «intelligentsia», «dissolves» it in a close, but not identical concept of «intelligence».

Diante da relevância da Hipertensão Arterial Sistêmica, considerada como um dos principais problemas de saúde pública e de suas temidas complicações, tornou-se viável planejar uma estratégia como medida de intervenção, orientando as agentes de saúde quanto as suas temidas complicações e agravantes, para melhor abordagem aos pacientes com doença hipertensiva daquela área.

Foi observado na Unidade de Saúde da Família do bairro Novo Horizonte do município de Araguari-MG- que 25% da população idosa era hipertensa.

Estudos em geral, indicam que os índices de pacientes hipertensos controlados são baixos e estão relacionados principalmente a aderência ao tratamento – tanto farmacológico quanto não farmacológico-

Sendo assim, foi ministrado um curso de capacitação para melhor abordagem ao paciente hipertenso, onde foram abordados os seguintes tópicos: conceito de hipertensão, sinais e sintomas, consequências e complicações caso o paciente não realize a adesão ao tratamento, medicamentos utilizados, valores de pressão considerados normais para cada faixa etária, qual a melhor atitude a ser tomada na ausência de adesão ao tratamento, como evitar o desenvolvimento da doença hipertensiva e fatores pré-disponíveis para hipertensão abordando hábitos de vida assim como fatores genéticos.

O intuito do curso ofertado foi de sensibilizar e orientar as agentes de saúde para melhor abordagem aos pacientes hipertensos daquela unidade.
