Factors influencing the job search and job selection in students of Generation Y in the Czech Republic in the employer branding context
Authors: Bejtkovský Jiří
Published: October 2018

The factors influencing job search and job selection are related to employer branding, employer’s position and employer attractiveness on labour market. These factors make employer branding. A conception of employer branding is hot issue not only in scientific research area. The employer branding can be divided into internal and external branding. The main goal of this article was to discover the factors influencing the job search and job selection based on the gender of the respondents and the type of faculty in the employer branding context. The students of Generation Y introduced a research sample of respondents. The primary data was acquired by structured questionnaire targeted at selected students of Generation Y in the Czech Republic. The total number of respondents was 655 students. Two research hypotheses and one research question have been defined. An analysis was realized using statistical software IBM Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) Statistics 23 and Microsoft Excel 2013. The verification of the research hypotheses was performed by the statistical method of the Two-sample t-Test for equal means. The research results discovered the findings that the mean perceptions of the factors influencing the job search and job selection: (1) were as the same for females and males, (2) were as the same for Generation Y students of the Faculty of Humanities (FHS) and Faculty of Management and Economics (FaME). Information about potential employers in the employer branding context was also investigated. The most frequent information about potential employers was information about job position and working conditions.

Published: October 2018

Introduction. The physical activity of adolescents forms an important aspect of their normal development and the prevention of lifestyle diseases.

Aim. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the effect of physical activity of adolescents on the prevention of lifestyle diseases.

Material and method. The study covered a sample of 135 students from a secondary school in Zamość, Poland, was conducted in 2016, and used the diagnostic survey method. The research tool was the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) in its Polish adaptation (the abridged version) and a survey questionnaire developed by the authors.

Results. More than half of the respondents (63.70%) engaged in sports activities in addition to PE classes at school, usually choosing team sports. According to the IPAQ key, 40.74% of the students demonstrated a high level of physical activity, 39.26% a moderate level, and 20% an insufficient level. The students were of the view that regular physical activity is of substantial importance in the prevention of diabetes (12.66% of the boys; 28.57% of the girls; p=0.037). At the same time, it was found not to have any major effect on the prevention of obesity, cancers, diseases of the musculoskeletal system or cardiovascular diseases.

Conclusions. The majority of the students declared that they regularly engaged in physical activity outside of school. According to the IPAQ assessment, the physical activity of adolescents remains at a high level, which may be considered as a positive indicator for the prevention of lifestyle diseases.

Background: Severe complications of chronic hepatitis C – i.e. cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma – are important causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite the overwhelming rates of sustained virologic response achieved after therapy with different combinations of direct-acting antiviral drugs (DAAs), treatment failure is still recorded, and is due to the mutations harboured by hepatitis C virus (HCV) resistance associated variants (RAVs) selected during therapy. Baseline RAVs testing was found significant for guiding treatment in the cases of treatment failure and, sometimes, in naïve patients.

Methods: Romanian chronic hepatitis C patients unexposed to DAAs and infected with subtype 1b HCV were studied. Serum samples were used for Sanger population sequencing of a fragment containing NS3 viral protease, known to harbour resistance mutation against protease inhibitors (PIs).

Results: Catalytic triad and zinc-binding site in the studied sequences were conserved. Low-intermediate resistance mutations to first generation PIs were detected either alone or in conjunction with resistance substitutions associated with second generation PIs. Cross-resistance and reduced susceptibility to certain DAAs were observed.

Discussion: This study focused on HCV patients infected with subtype 1b strains, the most prevalent in Romania. The rate of RAVs found in this work is consistent with the results reported by similar studies from other countries. Noticeably, numerous polymorphisms of unknown significance to DAAs resistance, but reflecting the high genetic variability of HCV, were found in the studied sequences. Testing for RAVs can be a useful method for guiding treatment in a cost-efficient manner in developing countries where access to DAAs is limited.
RETRACTED: How to Raise Quality Assurance in Legal Translation: The Question of Objectivity?
Authors: Akbari Alireza
Published: October 2018

The aim of the present study is to propose an approach to legal translation quality so as to address the idiosyncrasies in legal studies and to confront the challenges and flaws of previous paradigms and models of translation quality assessment. The present approach is associated with the micro-macro textual, contextual, and legal components/variables in the pursuit of an adequate strategy through elaborating the decision making process for translation. The elements of the decision making process remain constant between translation relevancy/brief, and the translation product in the source text analysis, reformulation and revision stages. Translation competence, translation product, and the translation decision making process are all the evaluative standards for both quality controllers and translators. Also, this study scrutinizes the impact of translation quality assessment involving professional and training contexts besides managerial quality. In the upshot, this approach has the potential to reduce subjectivity in the quality of legal translation based on particular methodologies. The proposed framework assists the need for the evaluation of the quality of legal translation to boost the quality benchmarks in the professional environment.
Louisiana and Quebec Terminology as a Tool in Polish-English Legal Translation
Authors: Kusik Przemysław
Published: October 2018

While in the majority of English-speaking territories the dominant legal tradition is common law, in Louisiana and Quebec the native language is English and the legal system stems from continental civil law. Both the Louisiana Civil Code and the Civil Code of Quebec take root in the European codification movement, following Code Napoleon. Bearing in mind the link between law and language, these jurisdictions provide a unique source of English civil law terminology with well-founded conceptual background.

The civil codes of Louisiana and Quebec seem to be potentially useful for the translation of Polish private law into English. Yet there are some reservations which should be considered. By comparing two different translations of Article 292 of the Polish Civil Code, this paper is intended to contribute to the debate on the use of Quebec and Louisiana terminology in Polish-English legal translation.
Mediation: Framing a Clil Course
Authors: Vyushkina Elena
Published: October 2018

Mediation in a legal sense is a means of alternative dispute resolution (ADR). Having evolved in the USA in the last half of 20th century the procedure is growing in popularity and proliferation all over the world. Many countries enacted particular legislation, and others included relevant articles into Civil and/or Criminal Procedure Codes. Howbeit, lawyers are to be aware of mediation and roles they may play within the process. Law school curriculum drafters face the challenge of including a new up-to-date course in mediation into busy and very full academic programmes. Analysis of existing instructing practice showed that in Anglo-American law schools mediation teaching is a part of clinical legal education. As for European countries, there is a broad range of scenarios and no established experience. Recognition of communicative skills as key skills for mediators prompts the use of a CLIL approach in structuring such a course. Listening, reframing, summarising, questioning are skills to be mastered by law-students both in a foreign language and their mother tongue. Language teachers are in charge of this part of the course while law teachers can work out text contents built on the branches of law mediators deal with more often (family law, employment law, contracts, etc.). Moreover, some texts may cover mediation law in a home country and abroad. Another important factor to take into account is a career path chosen by a law-student – if s/he is going to become a mediator or a lawyer securing clients in mediation. Role plays and scenarios are an integral part of the course. Moreover, the course developed can serve as an introduction to internship in a law clinic.
Efectos de las normas jurídicas según Francisco Suárez
Authors: Amezúa Amezúa Luis Carlos
Published: October 2018

Este artículo contribuye a destacar el papel de Suárez como uno de los más grandes teólogos y juristas de la Segunda Escolástica, también conocida como Escuela española de derecho natural. Suárez hizo una importante contribución a la teoría del jurídico en su conjunto: los efectos de la ley son mandar, prohibir, permitir y castigar. En concreto, respecto de las normas permisivas, la idea de que toda ley produce obligación requiere que una regla permisiva también esté amparada por otra norma imperativa. Esta concepción de la ley en Suárez la dota de una estructura prescriptiva que acentúa los aspectos voluntaristas, sin embargo está perfectamente integrada con la pretensión de justicia objetiva y con la justicia formal que son imprescindibles en cualquier acto legislativo.

Attitide to the European Union: the risk of disrupting the Swiss society
Authors: Karsanova E. S. , Volgin O. S.
Published: October 2018

Introduction.The processes that are going on now in Europe make a research of the social, cultural and political peculiarities of the Swiss electorate a timely issue due to their ambiguous attitude to the perspective of Switzerland joining the European Union.  

Materials and methods.The research is based on the theoretical and empirical analysis of Swiss ap­propriate sources and literature by using the meth­ods of historical, system and behavioral approach, that allowed us to define a causal relationship and differential signs of German-speaking Swiss com­munity as a particular ethnic group, to display most important factors that make the greatest influence on this group in terms of their attitude to EU.  

The results of the research.The Swiss elector­ate is deeply committed to the Swiss political insti­tutions. The principles of neutrality, federalism and direct democracy are supported by all population of Switzerland irrelatively of their ethno-linguistic di­versity. That is why many Swiss Eurosceptic argue that the membership in the EU is incompatible with political traditions of the Swiss Confederation. The repudiation of the EU membership is mostly peculiar to a great number of the German-speaking Swiss due to their political and cultural habits. On the contrary French-speaking Swiss mostly stay for joining the EU. We presuppose that a sufficiently high level of repudiation of the EU membership by the German-speaking Swiss can be explained by two main rea­sons: on the one hand, all Swiss belong to the state that has no general cultural (ethnical) attributes that make them more vulnerable to the institutional am­bitions of the EU, on the other hand, being German-speaking Swiss they belong to the ethno-linguistic and territorial unit which has no institutional sup­port and vivid cultural articulation. Being squeezed from both sides by the political and linguistic factors the German-speaking Swiss electorate possess a la­tent feeling of vulnerability and a nation-exclusive type of identity, which is the reason of their Euro­scepticism.  

Discussions and conclusion:the European Union wants to clarify the outlines of its relations with Switzerland. But the more resolute its politi­cal line becomes in this respect the more definitely the German-speaking Swiss electorate will perceive that this policy is a danger to their identity and the stronger their willingness to stay outside the EU will become. If we take into account that the German-speaking Swiss population is three times as big as the francophone Swiss population, Switzerland will apparently remain outside the EU in the foreseeable future.

Bu çalışmada, Türkiye‘de 2004-2016 yılları arasındaki organik bal üretimdeki değişimler regresyon analizi ile incelenmiştir. Regresyon analizinde, lineer, kuadratik, kübik, logaritmik ve ters regresyon modelleri karşılaştırmalı olarak incelenmiştir. Bu modeller ile elde edilen R2 değerleri sırasıyla; 0,16; 0,62; 0,70; 0,37; 0,52, R Ì…^2 değerleri 0,08; 0,54; 0.60; 0.31; 0.48 ve hata kareler ortalaması (HKO) değerleri 48743,01; 24376,61; 21228,61; 36580,48; 27563,47 olarak bulunmuştur. Parametre tahminleri anlamlı bulunan, R Ì…^2 değeri en yüksek ve HKO değeri en düşük olan kuadratik regresyon modeli en uygun model olmuştur. Bu regresyon modeline göre, 2017 ve 2018 yıllarında organik bal üretim miktarının sırasıyla; 693 ve 891 ton olacağı tahmin edilmiştir. Ayrıca, aynı dönem içinde organik olmayan bal üretiminin regresyon analizi de yapılmış ve lineer regresyon modeli en uygun model olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu model için R2=0,77 ve R Ì…^2=0,75 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Sonuç olarak, organik ve organik olmayan bal üretim miktarlarının farklı regresyon modelleri ile tahmin edilebileceği kanısına varılmıştır.
Urban Households‘ Vulnerability to Multidimensional Poverty in Eastern Ethiopia
Authors: Yemata Amare Mabrie
Published: October 2018

Household level vulnerability analyses are becoming main issue in economics literature. Yet very few empirical works have been done to examine the extent of Eastern Ethiopia urban (Dira Dawa, Harar and Jigjiga towns) households‘ vulnerability to multidimensional poverty. This paper tried to fill the gap by using a survey that was conducted to collect information on household‘s characteristics, socioeconomic status, shocks experience and responses to shocks during the year 2016. Unlike conventional studies of household vulnerability, this study calculates household‘s probability of experiencing a broad and non-monetary characterization of poverty: the multidimensional poverty index using Structural Equation and Tobit model. The Structural Equation Model result revealed that, the health and education dimensions of multidimensional poverty significantly contributed a lot to households‘ vulnerability to multidimensional poverty. Based on the Tobit model result households‘ vulnerability to multidimensional poverty would be reduced if the household is wealthier, better educated healthier, employed and has the practice of reducing the size of meals at the time of shock. Contrary to this, if the household has large family size, prone to health problem, and has not developed the culture of reducing the number of meals per day, there is high risk of vulnerability to multidimensional poverty. Hence, the study recommended that there is a dire need for policies and programs that can improve wealth and education statuses of household members, create employment opportunity, promote family planning, improved health situation and accessibility of food for the vulnerable households.

Published: October 2018

Karyotype properties of of six endemic Onobrychis taxa (O. beata, O. cilicica, O. fallax, O. podperae, O. sulphurea and O. lasistanica) naturally grown in Turkey were determined using squash preparation method and similarity of these endemics with cultivated taxon (O. viciifolia) were revealed. Ploidy levels of Onobrychis taxa were diploid (2n=14) except O. lasistanica and O. viciifolia (2n=28). Basic chromosome number is x=7 and chromosomes ranged from median to sub median with regard to centromere position. While the longest total chromosome length was measured in O. cilicica (28.21 Âµm), the shortest total chromosome length was in O. beata (21.47 Âµm). O. cilicica and O. sulphurea have satellite on chromosome 1 and chromosome 2, respectively. Hierarchical cluster analysis was performed to determine the relationships among the Onobrychis taxa and they were separated into three groups. O. fallax, and O. podperae were in the first group while O. sulphurea and O. cilicica were in the second group. O. beata, O. lasistanica, and O. viciifolia were assigned to the third group.

Published: October 2018

Effects of storage duration, soaking time and parboiling temperature on cooking properties (cooking time, water uptake ratio, solid loss, cooked kernel length, and amylose) of Ofada rice was determined and optimised using response surface methodology. Storage duration, soaking time and parboiling temperature were 1, 5, and 9 months; 1, 3, and 5 days; and 80, 100, and 120Â°C. Data were analysed by ANOVA and regression analysis. The cooking time ranged between 14-38 min, water uptake ratio (WUR) 2.51-4.61, solid loss 1.47-4.78%, cooked kernel length 6.32-11.90 and amylose 17.34-26.28%. There exist significant differences in the cooking properties. The coefficient R2 ranged between 0.97-0.75 which is a positive indicator of the model fitness. Storage duration and parboiling temperature influenced cooking except in solid loss and cooked kernel length respectively. Effect of soaking time was found prominent in WUR and solid loss. Optimum treatment for quality cooking properties are storage of paddy for 5 months, soaking for 18h and parboiling at 80Â°C to yield 20 min cooking time, 4.22 water uptake ratio, 4.11% solid loss, 10.58 mm cooked kernel length and 25.08% amylose. The validated experiment yielded 21.41 min, 3.99, 2.73%, 8.20 mm and 26.39% for cooking time, water uptake ratio, solid loss, cooked kernel length and amylose respectively.

Authors: Okuyan Samet , Akyol Ethem
Published: October 2018

This study was carried out to determine the effects of age and number of grafted larvae on acceptance rates, body weight, body length, head width and length, thorax width and length, and wing width and length of queen bees. One breeding and eleven starter hives were used for rearing queen bees. Totally, 495 one, two, and three-day-old larvae were grafted into starter hives comprising 30, 45, and 60 and 414 larvae were accepted; thus, generally, the acceptance rate was calculated as 83%. The best acceptance rate was calculated in three-day-old larvae group as 85.15%. There were found a statistically significant effect of the number of grafted larvae on body length and head width of queen. However, there were any effects on weight, head length, thorax width, thorax length, wing width, wing length, and acceptance rate of larvae. Age of grafted larvae did not have a statistically significant effect on head width, head length, wing width and acceptance rate of larvae. On the other hand, age of grafted larvae had a statistically significant effect on queen weight, body length, thorax width and length, and wing length of queen. If bee breeders wish to improve their stock, they should graft one-day-old larvae for rearing better queen bees.

Authors: Atakan Aydın , Özgönen Özkaya Hülya , Erdoğan Oktay
Published: October 2018

The Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are microorganisms that live symbiotically with plant roots and have many benefits to soil and plants. In this study, some effects of AMF which are known to be soil and plant beneficial, have been evaluated and solution proposals have been put forward against heavy metal and salinity stress in the soil. Salt accumulation and high concentrations of heavy metal in the soil affects negatively the microbial diversity and activity. Removal of salt acumulation and heavy metal from contaminated soil by chemical and physical methods is both very expensive and ineffective. Therefore, AMF are important for alleviating the heavy metal and salt stress in plants. AMF can alter plant physiolÂ¬ogy and root morphology, increase the uptake of nutrients and water from the soil through an extensive hyphal network, decrease the use of chemical fertilizer, interact with other soil microorganisms plant growth promoting, induce of some resistance parameters in the plants and produce the glomalin which develops the properties and structure of soil. AMF are eco-friendly solutions according to traditional methods and the use of suitable plant-fungi combinations increases the chances of success of these applications.

Published: October 2018

Çalışma hayvansal ürün üreticilerine verilen devlet destekleri ile ürünlerin üretim miktarı arasındaki ilişkiyi süt ve dana eti örneğinde incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaçla Türkiye için, 1986-2016 yılları arası veriye dayanarak süt ve dana eti için ayrı ayrı denklemlerle hata düzeltme modelleri tahmin edilmiştir. Eşbütünleme ilişkisinden kısa dönem Granger nedensellik ilişkilerine bakıldığında, süt üretim denkleminde değişkenler arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir nedensellik ilişkisi bulunamamıştır. Dana eti üretim denkleminde ise tüm değişkenler arasında çift yönlü Granger anlamda nedensellik bulunmuştur. Uzun dönem katsayılar incelendiğinde, süt üretim seviyesi ile piyasa fiyat farklılaşması arasında negatif, üretici destekleri ile pozitif bir ilişki bulunmaktadır. Öte yandan dana eti üretimi ile piyasa fiyat farklılaşması arasında pozitif ancak üretici destekleri ile negatif bir ilişki bulunmaktadır. Bulgular gerek parasal üretici desteklerinin gerekse de parasal destek dışındaki dış ticaret düzenlemesi gibi politikaların ürün türüne göre farklılaştırılması gerektiği düşüncesini desteklemektedir.

El Tribunal Administrativo Central de Recursos Contractuales
Authors: Pardo García-Valdecasas Juan José
Published: October 2018

La publicación de la Directiva 2007/66/CE, de 11 de diciembre, del Consejo y el Parlamento Europeo por la que se modificaba la 1989/665/CEE, de 21 de diciembre, tuvo como objetivo el reforzamiento de la eficacia del sistema de recursos en materia de contratación pública. Este reforzamiento se ha traducido entre otras cosas en la suspensión del expediente de adjudicación hasta que se resuelva por el órgano competente sobre el fondo o sobre la conveniencia o no de mantener suspendido el procedimiento. Con estas modificaciones el sistema de recursos español requería o bien de la modificación del procedimiento contencioso administrativo, al menos en lo referente a la suspensión del acto recurrido, o la creación de un órgano especializado que ejerciera la competencia para resolver estos recursos. Las peculiaridades del procedimiento contencioso administrativo y la especial carga de trabajo que recae sobre los tribunales de este orden jurisdiccional, aconsejaron al legislador español hacer uso de la posibilidad contenida en la Directiva 89/665/CEE de encomendar la competencia a un órgano administrativo independiente. Este es el origen del Tribunal Administrativo Central de Recursos Contractuales y de los órganos equivalentes creados por las Comunidades Autónomas. Su regulación debe contemplar como requisito esencial el de eficacia lo cual comporta, además de su independencia, la necesidad de establecer unas pautas de resolución inexcusablemente breves. Sólo de esta forma es posible conjugar la necesidad de dar satisfacción a las pretensiones de los recurrentes cuyos recursos se estimen con la de no incidir de forma negativa en la contratación pública dilatando más allá de lo prudente la suspensión del procedimiento contractual. El artículo que sigue sobre la materia trata de dar respuesta a las pregu ntas que derivan de los planteamientos anteriores.

AbstractResearch on visual metaphor has rapidly developed in the wake of verbal metaphor research, focusing on the development of taxonomies for visual metaphors and the analysis of the use of visual metaphor in specialized genres. In these studies visual metaphor identification seems to be quite straightforward. However, a reliable procedure for identifying visual metaphor in all sorts of contexts still needs to be developed. The first step of such procedure is concerned with the acquisition of a general understanding of an image. In this article we explore the issues that analysts face when they look at the image and establish its general meaning.Key words: visual metaphor, metaphor identification, image description, image meaning, image understanding.Resumen  Los estudios sobre metáfora visual se han sucedido a partir de la investigación en metáfora verbal, y se han centrado en el desarrollo de taxonomías de metáforas visuales y el análisis del uso de la metáfora visual en géneros concretos.

Occurrence of Veterinary Drug Residues in Poultry and Products Thereof. A Review
Authors: Bobkov Maxim , Zbinden Pascal
Published: October 2018

Over the past decades, great efforts in poultry management have led to a tremendous uplift in the productivity of poultry production. This progress, coupled with the intensification of production, has created the potential for diseases in birds as their energy is fully oriented towards
productivity but not to resistance. In order to prevent or treat the diseases, biosecurity measures and vaccination are widely applied; nevertheless, medication is still widely practiced worldwide. Information on influencing factors and use of veterinary medicinal products in poultry industry
as well as data on detection of residues in poultry products were collected from various sources. The data obtained were analyzed and ranked to represent a likelihood of occurrence of substances to be monitored in poultry and products thereof.
Veterinary Drug Residue in Food of Animal Origin in Switzerland: A Health Concern?
Authors: Ortelli Didier , Spörri Aline Staub , Edder Patrick
Published: October 2018

Many drugs are used in livestock farming, particularly antibiotics, with almost 80% of world antibiotic production used for animals. Therefore, veterinary drugs may be present as residues in food of animal origin even if their use is fully regulated to ensure the proper use of veterinary
medicinal products, to protect consumers from undesirable residues, and to ensure the supply of quality, safe and effective veterinary medicinal products to safeguard animal health. Analytical techniques for residue analysis have improved significantly with routine use of liquid chromatography
coupled with tandem or high-resolution mass spectrometry. This improvement enabled specific searches for several hundred target compounds within minutes in complex matrices such as milk, eggs, honey or meat and organs after slaughter. For many years, a national residue control programme in
food has been effective. The rate of non-compliant samples remains low and shows that consumers do not have to worry too much about the presence of drug residues in food of animal origin produced in Switzerland. Despite the significant reduction in antibiotic consumption observed in recent
years, the resistance rate and distribution of multidrug-resistant bacteria is steadily increasing, even in countries where drug consumption has decreased significantly. Reducing antimicrobial resistance will undoubtedly be one of the most difficult food safety challenges in the coming years.
The impedance cardiography technique in medical diagnosis
Authors: BENABDALLAH Hadjer , Kerai Salim
Published: October 2018

Background: Thoracic Electrical Bioimpedance (TEB) Technology sometimes called the Impedance Cardiography (ICG).  In 1940, the Impedance Cardiography emerged; the studies of this technique are realized to the cardiovascular diseases detection which used hemodynamic parameters measurements based on the skin electrodes contact by injecting a low amplitude alternating signal. The objective of this article is to review the various studies based on this signal type and to present the multiple methods used for the treatment and to have a correct analysis.

Methods: This ICG technique consists for applying an electric field longitudinally across a segment of the thorax with amplitude in mean, high frequency and low amplitude current. To analyze the ICG signal, the signal denoising is necessary that’s why a multiple filters are proposed, and the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) denoising is also used.

Results: The ICG is considered advantageous compared to other invasive conventional techniques; it gives a good correlation, and solves the Doppler ultrasound and Thermodilution problems. According to the studies, the Daubechies wavelet family (db8) is the best DWT to eliminate the noises. There are several algorithms for the signal characteristic point’s detection.

Conclusion: For the purpose of cardiovascular disease diagnosis and monitoring, the non-invasive ICG technique comes to solve the complexity problem for measurement and analyzing heart disease based on the thoracic electrical impedance change assessment that is due to blood velocity and resistivity changes (blood volume changes) in order to estimate several hemodynamic parameters.

Keywords: ICG, cardiovascular disease, hemodynamic parameters, diagnosis and monitoring, correct analysis.

Authors: Karim Chebbah Nabil , Mohamed Ouslim , Ryad Temmar
Published: October 2018

Breast cancer is one of the most common women cancers in the world. In this paper, a new approach based on thermography for the early detection of breast abnormality is proposed. The study involved 80 breast thermograms collected from the PROENG public database which consists of 50 healthy breasts and 30 with some findings. Image processing techniques such as segmentation, texture analysis and mathematical morphology were used to train a support vector machine (SVM) classifier for automatic detection of breast abnormality. After conducting several tests, we obtained very interesting and motivating results. Indeed, our method  showed a high performance in terms of sensitivity of 93.3%, a specificity of 90% and an accuracy of 91.25%. The final results let us conclude that infrared thermography with the help of an adequate automatic classification algorithm can be a valuable and reliable complementary tool for radiologist in detecting breast cancer and thereby helping to reduce mortality rates.

Authors: Rachida ZEGOUR , Belaid Ahror , Ben Salem Douraied
Published: October 2018

Background: In recent years, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is used in clinical application as non-invasive medical modality, it is rarely used to study the anatomy physiological, and biochemical of the skin, in spite of its very attractive modality for skin imaging. It makes an ideal imaging modality of unique soft tissue contrast to study the skin water content and to differentiate between the different skin layers. However MRI provides a big data with high quality. The analysis of these data require computerized methods to help clinicians and to improve disease of diagnosis. Several image processing method have been extensively used to assist doctors in qualitative diagnosis, segmentation is one of the most methods used in medical image processing for many applications in order to understand medical data and extract useful information.

The purpose of this study is to use the segmentation method to measure the hydration of skin using MRI modality.

Methods: We will classify segmentation approaches for MRI data into three basics classes: Edge based segmentation, Region based segmentation, and Thresholding segmentation. Then we will briefly describe Fuzzy C-means Clustering method. Furthermore, we will give some related works used FCM algorithm with MRI images.

Results: We have measured the hydration of the feet as a result of the FCM segmentation method, where the sample of the study was conducted on 35 healthy volunteers, who were scanned by MRI machine before applying moisturizer and one hour after.

Conclusion: MRI is an attractive modality to study the skin water content, it makes an ideal observation of the different skin layers in vivo with three dimensions. However, the segmentation of MRI data by FCM clustering is a computerized method to help clinicians in order to measure skin hydration.

Radical hydrofunctionalization occurs with ease using met-al-hydride atom transfer (MHAT) catalysis to couple alkenes and competent radicalophilic electrophiles. Traditional two-electron electrophiles have remained unreactive. Herein we report the addition of electronically-unbiased olefins into imines and aldehydes. Iron-catalysis allows addition of alkyl-substituted olefins into imines through the intermediacy of free-radicals, whereas a combination of catalytic Co(Salt-Bu,t-Bu) and chromium salts enable a branch-selective coupling of olefins and aldehydes through the formation of a putative alkyl chromium intermediate.

Molecular recognition binding sites that specifically identify a target molecule are essential for research in the life sciences, clinical diagnoses and therapeutic development. Corona Phase Molecular Recognition is a technique introduced to generate synthetic recognition at the surface of a nanoparticle corona, but it remains an important question whether such entities can achieve the specificity of natural enzymes and receptors. In this work, we generate and screen a library of 24 amphiphilic polymers based on functional monomers including methacrylic acid, acrylic acid, styrene and so on, iterating upon a poly(methacrylic acid-co-styrene) motif that demonstrates a binding specificity remarkably similar to an enzyme - Phosphodiesterase Type 5 - in its molecular recognition. The corona phase binds selectively to an inhibitor - Vardenafil, as well as its derivatives, but not to another inhibitor and substrate that interact differently with the enzyme. Our study examines the specificity and sensitivity by mutation of the polymer structure and configuration, as well as the competition with native binding sites. We demonstrate that the recognition originates from the unique three-dimensional configuration of the corona phase. This work conclusively shows that corona phase molecular recognition can mimic key aspects of biological recognition sites and drug targets, opening up possibilities for new pharmaceutical and biological applications.

We use a scanning tunneling microscope to form and electrically interrogate metal - molecule - metal junctions. To form such junctions, molecules must be functionalised with suitable contact groups (e.g. thiols, thioethers, 4-pyridyls, amines) at each extremity. We show here that 2-(methylthio)thiophene units not only act as contact groups, but can reversibly switch between a monodentate configuration (MeS-only) and a bidentate configuration (MeS- and thienyl S) upon junction compression; as the junction is compressed the electrical conductance increases greatly with the increased molecule-contact interaction. This means that such molecules show a large-amplitude mechanical switching behavior; we also show that this is reversible and that switching can occur at a rate of at least 10 kHz. Control molecules with MeSC6H5 contact groups do not show this behavior. This, together with detailed theoretical and transport calculations on the compressed and extended molecular junctions, supports our contention that it is the thienyl S that is involved in the switching mechanism.
Os índios na História e o ensino de História:
Authors: Silva Edson Hely
Published: October 2018

Os povos indígenas no Brasil nos últimos anos conquistaram e ocuparam espaços sociopolíticos, questionando visões eurocêntricas, colonialistas e evolucionistas tratando os povos indígenas como primitivos, desaparecidos ou vítimas impotentes em extinção. O que além de exigir reformulações das teorias explicativas sobre a história e o destino desses povos, vem também exigindo discussões, formulações e efetivação de políticas públicas respondendo as demandas de direitos indígenas sociais específicos. A Lei nº 11.645/2008 determinou a inclusão da história e culturas indígenas nos currículos da Educação Básica, possibilitando novas abordagens no ensino da temática indígena para superação de desinformações, equívocos e preconceitos generalizados sobre os índios, contribuindo com o reconhecimento e o respeito as sociodiversidades expressas pelos povos indígenas em nosso país.
Alunos da EJA falam sobre a História ensinada:
Authors: Bonete Wilian Junior
Published: October 2018

O presente artigo procura identificar e analisar o pensamento de um grupo de 66 alunos da Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA), de uma escola Estadual no Paraná, sobre o conhecimento histórico e suas relações com a vida prática. Para tanto, estabelece diálogos com a concepção de consciência histórica, tal como proposto por Jörn Rüsen, bem como os pressupostos que embasam o campo investigativo da Didática da História. Ao final, será possível perceber que os alunos, ao contrário de conceberem a História como uma simples “disciplina escolar”, procuraram relacionar o conhecimento histórico adquirido na escola com suas vidas, relataram os aspectos mais significativos da História escolar e destacaram o potencial crítico e formativo que a História possui.

Published: October 2018

The case of crime scene conducted by the investigator is the main part in the disclosure of criminal case because in the crime scene can be found the interaction between the perpetrator of the crime, the evidence used and the witness/victim of crime at the time of the criminal event. Therefore this paper analyzes the implementation process and the benefits of crime scene in the process of criminal investigation in Indonesia. The research method used was sociological juridical, with primary and secondary data sources. Primary data were obtained by conducting interviews with respondents, they were investigators who investigate criminal case. The results of the research on the procedures for the implementation of the Crime Scene Investigation is started from the preparation of the crime scene, the trip to the scene, the first action at the crime scene (TPTKP). The crime scene investigation covers the general observations, photography, sketching, evidence collection, victim handling, and perpetrators of crime scene organization, and the end of the crime scene, which consists of consolidation, opening/exempting the crime scene, the making of investigation report at the scene, and the evacuation of activities. The benefit of crime scene investigation in criminal investigation is as evidence, source of information to look for witness, as source to look for evidence and as saber to find perpetrator, legal basis of investigator in execution of crime scene is JUKLAK (standard operational procedure) Police of Republic of Indonesia with number 04/1982 and JUKNIS Police of the Republic of Indonesia with the number JUKNIS 01/11/1982.

REHABILITATION OF DRUG USERS IN DIGNITY’S JUSTICE PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Setiawan Bams Benz
Published: October 2018

Drugs is a dangerous threat for all people, in addition to the transnational, an increase in drug-related crime is fairly significant. Rehabilitation is one of the efforts to combat drugrelated crimes. However, research shows drug rehabilitation policies for drug users normatively still centrally to law enforcement. In practice, law enforcement still do not understand the philosophy of rehabilitation and prone to the Corruption, Collusion and Nepotism. As a way out, dignified Justice concept is offered to drug users for at humanity. Referring to one of the values of Pancasila, namely, democracy permusywaratan practiced in customary justice. Policy toward drug rehabilitation should involve drug users to help determine period in the future.

Prevention and eradication of terrorism funding criminal acts have been published by Indonesian Government as a ratified act of International Convention for the suppression of the financing of terrorism under the Act No. 9 The Year 2013. This act was enacted for strategies and serious attempts to fight against transnational crime of terrorism. Through content analysis method on The Act, this research was meant to understand the direction of security regulation of Indonesia by using three paradigms i.e. realism, liberalism, and constructivism. It was figured out that realism was used by Indonesian Government of which the government acts as the key and dominant actor in this Act. This realistic paradigm implies on many government policies which are perceived overwhelming and tend to repress on civil right of freedom.
Institutional Strategies of Identity Constructions and Exclusions: Exploring the State of Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar
Authors: CK Ashwati , CS Rajeesh
Published: October 2018

This article elucidates how the widening cultural and ethnic differences are likely to exclude some identities featured by dissensions in terms of their cultural and ethnic origins in the context of Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar. The core intention is to explore the process of exclusion of Rohingyas from a specific national identity. The findings show that Rohingyas access to the national identity can be undermined by the perspectives of the majority, who claims for straightforward sense of national identity. In addition, this work notes down the historical evolution of Rohingya Muslim identity from pre-colonial time to post Independent era with number of skirmishes and scuffles. It is found that through various processes of exclusion, Rohingyas in Myanmar are being compartmentalized and restricted to live in an enclave like situations. Even the squeezed socio-political, cultural and economic lives inside these enclaves are supervised. It makes them socially deserted, culturally discriminated, economically marginalized and politically under-represented. The study employs historical and analytical method to dig out the connection between historical evolution of Rohingyas and their present day status.
