Polinomios de Zernike y su aplicación en Oftalmología
Authors: Recarte Marlon
Published: October 2019

Cualquier aparato que se utilice para la visión necesita estar bien calibrado, ya sean lentes o el telescopio más complejo. Para ello es necesario un buen enfoque de las lentes que utilice el aparato en cuestión, ya que esto nos permitirá tener una visión óptima en el caso de las lentes o de poder ver más lejos en el caso del telescopio. A partir del año 2000, los polinomios de Zernike se adoptan como el estándar en ´óptica oftalmológica. Estos polinomios se usan hoy en día en los aberrómetros, que son los aparatos que miden la aberración del frente de onda ocular o, en otras palabras, se encargan de detectar los problemas de visión que tenemos.

Opción didáctica para el estudio de Electromagnetismo Simulador de ondas planas y guı́a de onda rectangular
Authors: Barralaga Francisco S. , Galo Roldan Alejandro
Published: October 2019

Se describe herramientas didáctica diseñada para acompañar el estudio de los campos electromagnéticos variantes con el tiempo. La herramienta, denominada MODELEC, es un conjunto de aplicaciones desarrolladas en el entorno de EJS1 (un ambiente de simulación basado en Java), que muestra la evolución de las ondas electromagnéticas planas unidimensionales, y la secuencia de campos eléctricos y magnéticos variantes en el tiempo generados en una guı́a de ondas rectangular.

MODELEC es una herramienta ideal para ser utilizada como opción complementaria en el desarrollo de los tópicos de la Teorı́a Electromagnética relacionados con ondas planas y cavidades resonantes. Permite visualizar los detalles de las ondas resultantes de los campos electromagnéticos generados por una fuente puntual inmóvil, mientras se propagan en ambas direcciones a lo largo de un eje; simula además a los campos electromagnéticos producidos por guı́as de onda rectangulares, permitiendo la visualización de los diferentes modos de propagación producidos en el interior de estas cavidades resonantes, los modos TMmn y TEmn. Su interface gráfica de usuario incluye opciones en las que se pueden variar los valores de los parámetros considerados apreciándose los efectos de estos cambios sobre las ondas producidas
Sobre las nuevas relaciones entre Gravedad y la Teoría Cuántica de Campos
Authors: Larios Bryan
Published: October 2019

En este trabajo se comentan los aspectos modernos de la teoría cuántica de campos y su conexión con la teoría de gravedad. Por más de 60 años se han tratado los campos cuánticos como los bloques fundamentales en física de altas energías. De igual manera, en la relatividad general de Einstein se ha trabajado por casi 100 años con la métrica del espacio-tiempo como lo primordial. Veremos que si cambiamos de paradigmas y consideramos los observables físicos como lo fundamental, las dos teorías pilares de la física presentan sorprendentes y modernas relaciones matemáticas, las cuales son el actual campo de investigación en la física fundamental de vanguardia.
Solución a la ecuación de Schrodinger con caminata aleatoria
Authors: Reyes Marco
Published: October 2019

En este trabajo se utiliza el método de la caminata aleatoria para resolver la ecuación de Schrodinger para diferentes potenciales, este método fue introducido por Anderson (Anderson, 1975) para calcular la energía fundamental de moléculas, este método también conocido como Monte Carlo difusivo ha demostrado ser muy útil en diferentes áreas de la mecánica cuántica (Gould & Tobochnik, 2012), (Kalos, 2008). Se calcula la energía fundamental para un oscilador armónico unidimensional y en tres dimensiones, la energía fundamental para el potencial de Morse, potencial coseno hiperbólico, y potencial polinómico de orden cuatro, los cuales son potenciales que modelan moléculas diatómicas. El objetivo principal de la revisión de este método es proporcionar a los estudiantes un algoritmo simple de como aplicar este método de Monte Carlo a un problema típico de la mecánica cuántica.
El conde duque de Olivares ante la Guerra de los Treinta Años. ¿Una gran estrategia?
Authors: Rivero Rodríguez Manuel
Published: October 2019

La tradición historiográfica anterior a 1914 interpretó la Guerra de los Treinta Años con una carga simbólica y emocional que hoy parece olvidada. Los historiadores anglosajones y germánicos, desde Schiller, confirieron al conflicto una fuerte carga emotiva; en su opinión, en dicho conflicto se puso en juego el futuro de la libertad. Contemplado como un pulso entre las fuerzas contrarreformistas antimodernas y las que defendían las libertades de conciencia y de mercado, la posición de Olivares se coloca justamente en un punto contradictorio pues quiso reformar España, pero en su acción exterior se condujo por motivaciones ideológicas, a diferencia de Richelieu que se condujo con pragmatismo en ambos planos.
Mi mayor embajadora: la Emperatriz María Ana de Austria, agente española en Viena
Authors: González Cuerva Rubén
Published: October 2019

En 1629, María Ana de Austria se casó con su primo, el futuro emperador Fernando III, y su hermano Felipe IV le despidió instruyéndola para que fuera su «mayor embajadora» en la corte imperial. Así nació un orden político muy original: el Rey Católico mantenía un embajador ordinario y extraordinario en Viena, pero este papel mediador fue reforzado por la presencia de María Ana y su casa. Aquí se analiza el desarrollo de ambos espacios de comunicación política desde dos ángulos distintos: primero, el impacto de una casa real española en Viena, su grado de integración y de influencia social, espiritual y artística. Segundo, se explora el rol individual de la emperatriz María Ana como consejera de su marido y mediadora de sus parientes españoles. Una cuestión final asalta: ¿actuó ella como portavoz de Felipe IV o como una figura independiente?
La Guerra de los Treinta Años en el Mediterráneo: la sombra francesa sobre Cerdeña
Authors: Revilla Canora Javier
Published: October 2019

El reino de Cerdeña nunca formó parte de los principales escenarios bélicos de la Guerra de los Treinta Años, siendo este, sin embargo, un punto geoestratégico fundamental para la protección de las posesiones mediterráneas de la Monarquía hispana. Este artículo centra su atención en un episodio de este conflicto que demostró la necesidad de proteger un enclave que historiográficamente ha sido considerado secundario.

Forecasting methods of generation of waste electrical and electronic equipment: a systematic review
Authors: Rodrigues Jaqueline Terezinha Martins Corrêa , Werner Liane
Published: October 2019

In recent decades there have been a significant increase in the use of electronic equipment in homes, offices and industries. When these equipment are discarded after have been used they become Waste of Electric and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). To know how the forecasting of WEEE´s generation were made, it was necessary to carry out a systematic review. The search was done in 5 databases by using the key words "electronic waste" or "WEEE" or "e-waste" and "forecasting" and it was found 854 articles. After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria 28 articles were reached. As a result, it is noted that the selected articles are concentrated in the USA and China and in a few newspapers. The most independent variable used was the dada about the commercialization of the equipment. The majority of the articles have as variable response the unit and weight. There was also strong use of statistical tools and forecasting methods, especially the regression and the MFA (Material Flow Analysis).
The security (culture) rhombus. Redefining security environment
Authors: Piwowarski Juliusz
Published: October 2019

Goal The goal of this article is to present the author’s definition of security environment. It constitutes a redefinition and expansion of the narrow (four-element) approach presented in the White Book on National Security of the Republic of Poland. I propose a broad, eight-element approach.
Methods I redefine security environment based on several premises. The first is the concept of the triangle of (the need for) security – the existence of this triangle necessitates and is sufficient for the need for security to arise. The second premise is the existence of the rhombus of security (culture), which necessitates and is sufficient for security to manifest, i.e. for the need for security to be satisfied.
Results The above premises lead to the conclusion that the narrow approach to security environment should be ontically expanded to include elements comprising the triangle of the (need for) security and the security (culture) rhombus. This results in an eight-element definition of security environment.
Conclusions The article illustrates an important issue in the security sciences – the need to expand the definition of security environment. I present and justify an alternative to the narrow approach to security environment, which is based on the narrow definition presented in the White Book on National Security of the Republic of Poland.
Procedural and Institutional Backing of Transparency in Algorithmic Processing of Rights
Authors: Polčák Radim
Published: October 2019

Efficient enforcement of legal substance requires proper procedures and capable institutions. In that respect, law is now being challenged by the emergence of automated systems that autonomously decide about matters concerning rights. The neuralgic point in enforcement of legal compliance of such systems, namely with regards to possible discrimination, is transparency. Currently, there exists, at least in the EU, particular individual right to know the logic of respective algorithms. The comment tries to narrow down the issue of actual enforceability of that right by investigating its basic procedural and institutional aspects.

Consequences of the Use of Personalization Algorithms in Shaping an Offer – A Private Law Perspective
Authors: Południak-Gierz Katarzyna
Published: October 2019

Personalization mechanisms in consumer e-commerce allow for the adjustment of the time, form and manner of contact, the way of concluding the contract and the availability and content of the offer. Subsequently concluded agreements can be seen as a new phase of development of the consumer transaction model – secondary individualization replaces standardization. The possibility of concluding contracts on a massive scale is retained, but with added granularity and flexibility that mimic the individualisation of transactions. Special provisions for personalized contracts are missing on the EU level and within the Polish legal system.The starting point is an analysis of the reaction of the traditional private instruments of Polish law towards the personalization of offers – case law and doctrinal approach towards the concept of a standard contract and an individually negotiated one are examined. Next, the pre-contractual stage is investigated – the personalization process is explored from the perspective of unfair practices regulation, and the legal basis for the personalization process in the context of the GDPR is discussed. While Polish national law focuses on combating the undesired results of personalization, the EU initiatives aim at granting ex-ante protection. The mechanism in directive 2005/29/EC is being supplemented with an information protection mechanism (consent requirement). The limitations of this model are identified and some alternative solutions are proposed.
Juridical Status of So-called Smart Contracts against the Background of the Polish Legal Framework
Authors: Kaczorowska Bogna
Published: October 2019

Among substantial advancements challenging contemporary contract law special attention is given to autonomous, cryptographic solutions based on decentralised infrastructure provided by blockchain technology, intended to execute transactions automatically, designated as smart contracts. The need for comprehensive research on legal implications of practical implementation of this technological innovation is triggered particularly by the prognostications declaring it a valid alternative to hitherto contract law framework that is expected to be ultimately replaced by algorithmic mechanisms underpinning smart contracts.A relevant assessment of the impact smart contracts are presumed to have on the contract law domain requires a thorough analysis of their juridical status. The specificity of the category of smart contracts raises doubts whether they comply with the definition criteria inherent to contract law terminology. Additionally, it is of material importance to determine the function smart contracts can perform in the sphere of contractual practice and to confront it with the role and axiology of contract law.The article aims at analysing the peculiarities of smart contracts from the perspective of the Polish private law system with account being also taken of current development tendencies concerning the concept of contract.
In the Procedural Surroundings of Consumer Protection: Online Dispute Resolution, the Adversarial Principle, and Tendencies toward Settlement
Authors: Björling Erik
Published: October 2019

The article builds on a pluralistic perspective on law and the understanding that legal research must take into account the procedural and institutional landscape where legal rights are enforced. In relation to online dispute resolution (ODR), two procedural mechanisms, namely the adversarial principle and the tendency toward settlements, are studied and discussed. The adversarial principle (argued to be integral to most ODR procedures) and tendencies toward settlements (also argued to be integral to most ODR procedures) are considered in relation to the overarching (and possibly contradictory) objectives of protecting individual consumer rights and the interest of increasing economic efficiency within the EU’s internal market.
Blockchain-based Land Registration: Possibilities and Challenges
Authors: Kaczorowska Maria
Published: October 2019

In recent decades land registration systems operating in Europe and worldwide have been subject to modernisation processes consisting in implementation of information and communication technologies. Such reforms have gradually led to facilitating access to land information, improving effectiveness of land registration proceedings and even introducing possibilities to dispose of the ownership of land electronically by developing electronic conveyancing mechanisms. Another innovative concept much discussed nowadays is the application of blockchain technology in the land registration sector. This solution is currently being tested in a number of countries.Distributed ledger technology underlying blockchain is expected to revolutionise land registration by offering a secure architecture to store land transactions with the use of cryptographic protocol. This shall bring advantages of increased trust and processing efficiency as well as reduction of costs. However, the above idea raises concerns given that, under the assumptions of the “original” blockchain model, transactions are irreversible and are carried out without intermediaries, which means the lack of any external control and independent verification of the transactions to be recorded.The article examines potential benefits and risks of automatisation of land transactions as well as practical experiences of selected countries in implementing blockchain in the area of land registration. On this basis, an assessment will be made as to whether blockchain-based registration could indeed replace the existing methodology of registering rights to land.
Daňová morálka a daňové úniky v ekonomických experimentech
Authors: Špalek Jiří , Špačková Zuzana
Published: October 2019

Dodržování daňové morálky je jednou z oblastí, kde laboratorní experimenty mohou přispět k pochopení individuální racionality ekonomických subjektů. Teoretický model založený na teorii očekávaného užitku a předpokladu racionálního jedince (homo oeconomicus) není schopen pokrýt a vysvětlit komplexitu individuálního rozhodování o (ne)dodržení daňových zákonů. Zároveň platí, že možnosti zkoumat daný jev „v terénu“ jsou omezené. Výsledky získané prostřednictvím laboratorního testování tak mohou pomoci zaplnit prázdná místa ve výzkumu. Námi prezentovaná analýza se v této souvislosti zaměřuje na několik dílčích cílů. Vzhledem k relativně malému povědomí v české odborné komunitě (i) diskutujeme relevanci metody laboratorního experimentu v ekonomii pro zkoumání chování daňových subjektů, přičemž se opíráme o (ii) shrnutí dosavadního stavu poznání ve zkoumané oblasti. Detailněji experimentální metodu (iii) představují výsledky vlastního výzkumu (experimentu). V experimentu, který představuje náš příspěvek, jsme se zaměřili na posouzení vlivu dvou základních fiskálních proměnných na míru dodržování daňové morálky. Cílem je posoudit vliv měnící se pravděpodobnosti daňové kontroly a výši sankce uložené v případě krácení daně. Naší výzkumnou otázkou bylo, zda a do jaké míry měnící se hodnota těchto proměnných ovlivní chování daňového poplatníka, resp. jeho ochotu odvádět daň v řádné výši. Výsledky provedeného experimentu ukazují, že reakce českých subjektů na parametrickou změnu těchto proměnných je velmi obdobná, jako je tomu v zahraničních experimentech. Z obou studovaných faktorů má na ochotu řádně platit daně výraznější vliv rostoucí pravděpodobnost daňové kontroly. Naopak vliv výše uložené sankce je spíše marginální.

Experimentální ověření teorie spirály mlčení v online a offline prostředí
Authors: Kalvas František , Přibylová Lucie
Published: October 2019

The article reports the results of a test of the Spiral of Silence Theory that was introducedby Elizabeth Noelle-Neumann. The real process of the spiral of silence assumes that people (in the putativeposition of a minority) do not express their opinion or join the opinion of the majority because they have a fearof isolation. Tamás Bodor has argued that the theory does not function in all tests when (1) the process is timelimited,meaning that we can observe a public debate of an actual problem only for a short time and with thecondition that the public forms two opposing opinion camps and (2) the key dependent variable is measuredin an inappropriate way (e.g. researchers interview participants using a questionnaire on the hypotheticalwillingness to speak out). The solutions used with our test were: (1) we used four controversial themes,resulting in a greater probability of finding the functional process of the increased silence of the minority,and (2) we measured the key dependent variable as speaking behaviour during the laboratory experiment.Two laboratory experiments were part of this research; the first contained 42 and the second contained 43students from the University of West Bohemia in Pilsen. The experiments had the same design: (1) measuringof attitudes through a questionnaire (phase 1); (2) discussion on an internet blog (an anonymous onlineenvironment); and (3) discussion in a focus group (an offline environment). The first half of the respondentsdiscussed anonymously online (phase 2) and thereafter offline (phase 4), and the other half participated in theexperiment in the reverse order of environments. We measured attitudes again in phase 3 and at the end of theexperiment (phase 5). The article investigates whether participants with minority attitudes are more frequentlysilent and how this relationship is moderated by fear of isolation and by the communication environment. Ourresults prove that the probability a participant will speak her opinion rises in an anonymous online environment.The results support the Spiral of Silence Theory – participants expressing minority attitudes are more frequentlysilent, but only when they express higher fear of isolation. Participants expressing lower fear of isolation arenot influenced by minority or majority attitudes regarding the speaking of their opinion. Finally, the maincontribution of our paper is the experimental replication of results obtained through hypothetical measures.
Jednočlenné domácnosti mladých lidí v České republice
Authors: Kvapilová Bartošová Michaela , Fučík Petr
Published: October 2019

Over the last few decades, we have been witnessing a gradual increase in the numberof one-member households among young people in the Czech Republic. Even though the experience ofliving alone in so-called early adulthood can affect the development and lifestyle, so far it is not wellresearchedphenomenon bound to stereotypes and myths. Based on quantitative data survey of EU-SILCand time-use diary survey by Czech Household Panel Survey this study provides basic information on theorigin, characteristics and living conditions in one-member households of individuals between the ages of18 and 35 and examines selected aspects of their lifestyles. Based on detailed analysis it aims to disprovea stereotypical idea of careerism among these people by comparing their income, job positions and workinghours with the other types of household. In comparison with the other types of household, there is also nosignificant difference in the area of sociability. Hence we cannot support either of the opposing stereotypes:solitude or extreme sociability. However, single women tend to show a lower level of sociability and certaindissatisfaction in this area as well.

Gli epigrammi di Papa Damaso e Roma Christiana
Authors: Leoni Juri ,   Instituto Patristico Augustinianum
Published: October 2019

This article aims through a study of the epigraphy of Pope Damasus (366-384), to reconstruct the ideal society that was shown to the pilgrim who went to the loca sanctorum in the Urbs. Taking into account the pastoral, political and ideological elements of Damasian epigraphy, it shows that the choice of martyrs and subjects which were celebrated responded to the increasing numbers of nobles within Roman Christian society after the peace of Constantine. Damasus tried to accommodated himself to the sensibilities of the minor aristocracy of Rome and the emerging clergy, without renouncing its hierarchical organization of the Church in line with the social and ecclesial tendencies of the second half of the fourth century, when Roma christiana came into being.
L’uso politico di Aristofane in Giovanni Crisostomo
Authors: Spuntarelli Chiara ,   Instituto Patristico Augustinianum
Published: October 2019

This article begins by analysing the homily Quod frequenter conveniendum sit, in which John Chrysostom represents himself as Elijah, in a way shaped politically by his years in Constantinople and his amazing project of building a Christian/gospel-based politeia. His representation is marked by the idea of philanthropia and in competition with similar ideas found in Neo-Platonic contexts. The article suggests that this representation is replayed in a polemical key in John’s circles to represent the clash with Eudoxia. The use of the verb κωμῳδέω in the spurious In ss. Petrum et Heliam offers a window onto the strategy of the supporters of the deposed bishop of reworking this identification of John with Elijah; this shows that the image of himself as monk, martyr and also persecuted prophet, which Chrysostom had constructed of in his years of exile, was welcomed and adopted by others.

Strah pred gibanjem in sprejemanje bolečine v povezavi z depresivnostjo pri osebah s kronično razširjeno bolečino
Authors: Zupančič Katja , Bitenc Črtomir
Published: October 2019

Izhodišče: Pri osebah s kronično razširjeno bolečino je pogosto prisotna depresivna simptomatika, ki lahko še dodatno poslabša kakovost njihovega življenja. Namen raziskave je bil preučiti strah pred gibanjem, pripravljenost na doživljanje bolečine in vključenost v dejavnosti glede na prisotnost depresivne simptomatike.Metode: V raziskavo je bilo vključenih 215 oseb, ki so bile med oktobrom 2016 in aprilom 2018 pregledane v ambulanti za rehabilitacijo oseb s kronično nerakavo bolečino na URI – Soča. V okviru pregleda so reševale Beckov vprašalnik depresivnosti (BDI-II), Lestvico strahu pred gibanjem Tampa (TSK) in Vprašalnik sprejemanja kronične bolečine (CPAQ).Rezultati: Multivariatna analiza variance je pokazala, da se osebe s kronično bolečino in depresivno simptomatiko razlikujejo od tistih brez depresije v strahu pred gibanjem, v pripravljenosti na doživljanje bolečine in vključenosti v dejavnosti. Pri depresivnih osebah je bil strah pred gibanjem večji, pripravljenost na doživljanje bolečine in vključenost v dejavnosti pa manjša kot pri osebah brez depresije. Zaključek: Zaradi pogostosti depresivne simptomatike pri osebah s kronično bolečino ter njenim vplivom na več področij delovanja je ustrezna obravnava razpoloženjskih težav ključnega pomena.
Kliničnopsihološka obravnava otrok in mladostnikov s tumorjem osrednjega živčnega sistema
Authors: Uršič Katarina , Bürger Lazar Martina
Published: October 2019

V Sloveniji v povprečju letno zboli okoli 20 otrok in mladostnikov s tumorji osrednjega živčnega sistema (tumorji OŽS), kar predstavlja približno 20 % vseh bolnikov, zdravljenih na Kliničnem oddelku za otroško hematologijo in onkologijo Pediatrične klinike (KOOHO). Otroci s tumorji OŽS potrebujejo celostno interdisciplinarno obravnavo, del katere je tudi ustrezna kliničnopsihološka diagnostika in celostna nevrokognitivna rehabilitacija, ki je zaradi zelo pogostih kognitivnih in psihosocialnih posledic bolezni ter zdravljenja, bistvenega pomena. Izvaja jo klinični psiholog, ki je član stalnega tima KOOHO. Kliničnopsihološko in nevropsihološko spremljanje otroka se prične že med samim zdravljenjem, po zaključenem zdravljenju in nato sledi redno spremljanje na 2 – 3 leta oziroma ob opozorilu staršev ali lečečega pediatra onkologa na pomembne spremembe v funkcioniranju otroka. Ocenjujemo splošno inteligentnost, šolske dosežke, izvršilne funkcije, pozornost in koncentracijo, spomin in učenje, nevro-senzorično zaznavo, vidno-prostorske in vidno-gibalne sposobnosti, zaznavno procesiranje, hitrost procesiranja, govor, prilagoditvene spretnosti, čustvovanje, vedenje in kakovost življenja. S prepoznavo vrste in resnosti dolgoročnih posledic bolezni in zdravljenja, lahko otroku ali mladostniku nudimo individualna priporočila za ukrepe in prilagoditve ter ustrezno zgodnjonevrorehabilitacijo, ki ima pomembno vlogo pri razvoju neodvisnosti in avtonomnosti v odrasli dobi.

Kakovostna celostna obravnava otrok s tumorji OŽS vpliva na preživetje bolnikov, zmanjšuje pozne posledice zdravljenja in omogoča otrokom in kasneje odraslim čim boljšo kakovost življenja na področju zdravja, izobraževanja, zaposlitve, partnerskih in družinskih odnosov. Pri otrocih in mladostnikih z neozdravljivim možganskim tumorjem pa je pomembna zgodnja vključitev v interdisciplinarno paliativno oskrbo, z namenom vzdrževanja optimalne kakovosti življenja bolnika in svojcev v dani situaciji. Gre zaaktivno, celostno oskrbo bolnikov ter pomoč njihovim bližnjim tako v času bolezni kot tudi v procesu žalovanja.

Prikazujemo 80-letnega bolnika, pri katerem smo odkrili simptomatsko degenerativno aortno stenozo (maksimalni gradient 58 mmHg, srednji gradient 38 mmHg, površina ustja 0,9 cm2) ter hemodinamsko pomembni stenozi debla leve koronarne arterije (LM) in leve descendentne arterije (LAD) z zmanjšano koronarno rezervo (0,72). Ker je bolnik zaradi starosti in degenerativne bolezni hrbtenice zavrnil srčno operacijo, smo najprej opravili perkutano koronarno intervencijo (PCI) na LM in LAD, v drugem posegu pa perkutano vstavili še samoraztezno biološko aortno zaklopko. Po posegu ni bilo pomembne aortne insuficence, srednji gradient pa je znašal 12 mmHg. Ob ultrazvočnem kontrolnem pregledu po 4 mesecih je gradient porastel na 23 mmHg, kar je sovpadalo s ponovo zmanjšano bolnikovo telesno zmogljivostjo. Zaradi suma na trombozo lističev aortne zaklopke smo opravili računalniško tomografijo aorte s kontrastom, ki je naš klinični sum potrdila. Pokazala je zadebljen levi in nekoronarni listič na bazi zaklopke z zmanjšanim odpiranjem. Ponovna stenoza v stentih LM in LAD ni bila prisotna. Bolniku smo ukinili acetilsalicilno kislino in ob klopidogrelu uvedli kronično antikoagulantno zdravljenje s kumarinom. Ultrazvočna preiskava po 4 mesecih je pokazala zmanjšanje srednjega gradient na aortni zaklopki na 9 mmHg, po nadaljnjih 3 mesecih antikoagulantnega zdravljenja pa je gradient znašal 12 mmHg. Bolniku smo zato ukinili antikoagulantno zdravljenje in ponovno uvedli acetilsalicilno kislino.

Pyramidal orchid (Anacamptis pyramidalis) is a wild terrestrial orchid widelyfound in Lebanon and the Mediterranean zone. Random collection and trade of theorchid for medicinal and edible use (salep) subjected it to a risk of extinction.Consequently, the current work aimed to propagate this orchid in vivo. Orchidbulbs were transplanted from the wild into four different soil substrates (Pinebark,Pinebark-Peat (1/1), Peat-Sand (1/1) and control: soil from the collection site)under controlled conditions of temperature and humidity. The effect of mycorrhizalapplication (MY: Yes) was tested in the different substrates except in control andorchid bulbs (son bulb and mother bulb) were planted combined (SB+MB) or afterseparation of the mother bulb (SB). Same treatments were repeated over twoconsecutive years. Results showed an earlier emergence of son bulbs (SB) grownin control substrate. Moreover, there was a significant difference in plant growthwith superiority for (SB) compared to (SB+MB) regarding plant length andelongation of first leaf except bulb dimensions (length and width) that were higherin (SB+MB). Mycorrhizal application enhanced the overall growth of plants and itseffect was the most obvious in the substrate Peat-Sand (1/1). In general, the bestgrowth of the orchid was observed at the level (SB)/(MY:Yes)/Peat-Sand (1/1).Results of the second experimental year confirmed those of the first year with animprovement of the rate of emergence by 13%. The in vivo propagation methodwas beneficial on improving the growth of A. pyramidalis ex situ and it could beadopted as an initiative for wild orchid conservation.

Selection of a particular agricultural crop for the food production is a complexproblem. This is usually conditioned not only by the financial claims, but also otherrequirements should be taken into the account, i.e. environmental criteria,sustainability, etc. Fuzzy Logicis one of the many appropriate tools/procedures forsolving such task(s).Such a procedure will be implemented within decision-makingalgorithm for the selection of an appropriate agricultural crop. The paper deals withthe implementation of the mentioned tool/procedure for selection and ranking ofthe particular sort of crops, regarding different decision-making structures. Withinthis, there is an intention to reduce all possible biases and subjectivities tominimum by using Fuzzy Logic. This will be applied with input parameters, whichare extracted and correlated with real requirements and conditions regarding actualneeds of the market and farmers. Along with the offered agricultural crops andpossibility of their selection, final ranking and selection of the most appropriatecrop can be supported for different possible scenarios (dry or wet period of theyear, accents on the financial, environmental of other criteria, available financialresources, market availability, etc.). Presented methodology will contribute to thefinal goal, which is systematic agricultural planting and sustainability of the foodproduction.

The adoption of appropriate managerial approaches mainly depends upon propermonitoring and consequent assessment of ecosystems health. Towards that, thewatershed health monitoring has gained recognition among regulating agenciessuch as Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). However, its importance has notbeen considerably taken into account by authorities in developing countries wherethe outcome of such approach is essentially needed for effective and efficientmanagement of the ever-degrading ecosystems. To this end, the present articleintroduces a simple and standardized approach of describing the overall watershedhealth situation using risk based RelResVul framework. Towards this, threeindicators of reliability (Rel), resilience (Res) and vulnerability (Vul) have beenconceptualized and calculated based on the normalized difference vegetation index(NDVI) for the Shazand Watershed, Markazi Province, Iran, as a case study. NDVIis an important and commonly used vegetation index in research on globalenvironmental change. The primary data collected to create NDVI maps was multispectralsatellite images of path 165 and rows of 36 and 37, with a spatialresolution of 30 m from the Landsat Satellite images for the sample year of 2014.The results of RelResVul analysis showed that the overall condition of the ShazandWatershed health in terms of Rel, Res and Vul was healthy, un-healthy andmoderately healthy, respectively with scores of 0.82, 0.17 and 0.50 out of 1.0. Theaverage watershed health index based on RelResVul framework was also obtained0.34 varying from 0.04 to 0.46. Hence, it can be concluded that the ShazandWatershed was in relatively un-healthy state from view of vegetation cover. Themaintenance and recovery of the Shazand Watershed health should be consideredas fundamental step to reach the integrated watershed management objectives.

There is a need for high cutting-edge technological ICT application in agriculturein order to embark on the current decline in agriculture labor force in Japan.However, few small-scale farmers are able or willing to risk significant capital onsensing technologies. There is a challenge in horticultural greenhouse farming toprovide a well-controlled microclimate environment to meet well-developed cropswith high yield and quality crop production while using fewer resources. In thisstudy, a cost-effective simplified smart agriculture system was developed anddeployed in small-scale tomato greenhouse farming in Nara, Japan. The systemreal-time information capability is used for monitoring crop environment for propercrop management. A spatiotemporal analysis was done to assess variations andunderstand the underlying microclimate conditions in the partitioned tomatogreenhouse (blocks). Crop production is done all year around (An average of 2.5times cropping cycle per one greenhouse block). Spatiotemporal analysis andstatistical analysis results show well-defined micro-climate control strategies thatcould relatively be used in greenhouse facility management to enhance cropcultivation while using less energy resource that is relatively cost-effective. Thereliability of the system data makes it efficient and consequently it could be usedfor accurate crop production planning, improvement in cultivation managementand support in decision-making regarding cultivation activities.

Plant microRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs, about 21-24 nucleotides,which have critical regulatory roles on growth, development, metabolic anddefense processes. Their identification, together with their targets, have gainedimportance in exploring their parts on functional context, providing a betterunderstanding of their regulatory roles in critical biological processes. With theadvent of next-generation sequencing technologies and newly developedbioinformatics tools, the identification of microRNA studies by computationalmethods has been increasing. In the presented study, we identified some putativemiRNAs for Cicer arietinum, Glycine max, Medicago truncatula and Phaseolusvulgaris genomes. We also provided the similarity between those organismsregarding common/different miRNAs availability throughout their genomes.According to the data, the highest similarity was found between Glycine max andPhaseolus vulgaris. We also investigated the potential targets of putativelyidentified miRNAs for each organism. We analyzed which miRNA families wereexpressed in silico. We also showed the representation (copy number of genes)profile of predicted putative miRNAs for each organism. Since most of the foodproducts and animal feeds consist of Fabaceae family members as it is mentionedabove, these findings might help to elucidate their metabolic and regulatorypathways to use them efficiently in biotechnological applications and breedingprograms.

We investigated the effect of paclobutrazol as preplant bulb soaks on plant heightof Iris x hollandica cv. ‘Frans Hals’ and ‘Blue Magic’cultivars which were grownin pots. Bulbs of iris were soaked into gibberellin inhibitor paclobutrazol solutionat 0, 15, 30 ppm before planting. Effect of paclobutrazol on the flowering time,flower diameter and length, leaf length, plant height, flower life, and chlorophyllcontent of leaves were determined. The shortest plant height was obtained from the‘Blue Magic’ cultivar treated with 30 ppm paclobutrazol which gave plants with11.3 cm, 68% shorter than untreated control. ‘Frans Hals’ cultivar treated with 30ppm paclobutrazol was 20.9 cm and 50% shorter than control. In ‘Blue Magic’ and‘Frans Hals’cultivars the lower dose of 15 ppm paclobutrazol were also effectiveon height control with 11.8 and 21.5 cm plant height, respectively. This gibberellininhibitor also shortened the leaf length of iris cultivars. Paclobutrazol treatmentsresulted in higher chlorophyll content per unit area in the leaves. The highestchlorophyll content (57.00 CCI) was obtained from the ‘Blue Magic’ iris treatedwith 30 ppm paclobutrazol, while the control plants had 32.70 CCI chlorophyll intheir leaves. Chlorophyll content of ‘Frans Hals’ treated with 30 ppm paclobutrazolwere 52.87 CCI, while control plants of this cultivar were 28.80 CCI. Plantsapplied with paclobutrazol resulted with smaller flower diameter compared to thecontrol plants of both cultivars. The smallest flower diameter was obtained from 30ppm paclobutrazol treatment with 38.83 mm in ‘Blue Magic’ iris while the controlof this cultivar was 99.63 mm. The flower diameter of ‘Frans Hals’ cultivar treatedwith 30 ppm paclobutrazol was 109.1 mm, while the control one was 112 mm.

Agriculture uses more than 80% of water resources in Morocco. The sector isinefficient in terms of water use due to the dominance of surface irrigation. Toaddress this issue, there have been efforts in Moroccan strategies to convert surfaceirrigation to localized one. This paper analyses the dynamics of conversion fromsurface irrigation to drip irrigation in Fez-Meknes region (north-eastern Morocco)through the lens of the Multi-Level Perspective (MLP) on socio-technicaltransitions. MLP framework suggests that transitions are the results of dialecticinteractions among a niche (cf. novelty of drip irrigation), a regime (cf. traditionalsystem of surface irrigation) and the socio-technical landscape (e.g. policies). MLPwas complemented with a multi-capital approach to better assess transitionimpacts. Results show that the area equipped with drip irrigation in Fez-Meknesregion increased from 2174 ha in 2008 to 39290 ha in 2016. Different programshave been implemented in the framework of the Green Morocco Plan to fosterirrigation transition e.g. the National Irrigation Water Saving Program (PNEEI),launched in 2007, aims to convert 550,000 ha to localized irrigation (e.g. dripirrigation) in 15 years. Thanks to these programs, financial and technical supporthas been provided to farmers to promote the adoption of water-saving irrigationtechniques and practices. Farm-level results show that transition to localizedirrigation decreases irrigation water use, increases yields and profitability (cf. grossmargin per ha), and improves water productivity. Despite an enabling policylandscape and positive transition impacts, surface irrigation is still maintained inthe region and farmers are reluctant to change for many reasons (e.g. age andeducation level, unclear land tenure, financial and administrative difficulties).Efforts are still needed to train farmers on irrigation scheduling and on the use ofsmart irrigation techniques to save water. Further research is required to betterunderstand current bottlenecks in the irrigation transition process and designappropriate and context-specific transition governance strategies.
