Forms of Metatextuality Actualized in a Literary Text and Their Role in Representation of the Author’s Worldview (Based on the Novel Word Child by Iris Murdoch).
Authors: Shevchenko Lyudmila
Published: September 2021

The article presents a lingvocognitive research and deals with the study of metatext as a means of representing the author’s worldview. The author of the study describes and systematizes the ways by which metatextuality reveals itself in a literary text. The material is taken from the novel Word Child by Iris Murdoch in which meta-language reflection is expressed evidently. Cognitive approach, used in the study of metatext, brings the research to the level of metacognition and provides a wider interpretation of both the forms of metatextual commentary in the text and their function in the reconstruction of the author’s individual world vision.

Authors: Bubnova Nina , Lange Nina
Published: September 2021

The article describes the range of onomastic research presented at the XVIII International scientific conference "Onomastics of the Volga region". This conference was held on September 9-10, 2020 in the Kostroma city on the basis of Kostroma State University. For more than fifty years, it has united onomastics researchers from Russia and countries of the near and far abroad. Reports on the theory and methods of onomastic research, various aspects of the study of various categories of proper names, sources of onomastic research, and onomastic periphery were delivered and discussed at the plenary and breakout sessions of the conference. For the first time, sacred onomastics was included in the range of issues discussed. The organizing committee and the conference participants noted the difficult conditions of the infection pandemic of COVID-19 in which the conference was held, however, the fact that the annual meeting of onomastics researchers took place suggests that onomastics, the science of man and for man, is a truly demanded and relevant branch of modern linguistics.

ISSR-PCR analysis of genetic variation in populations of Achillea L. species in southern part of Krasnoyarsk Territory and Republic of Khakassia
Authors: Stoyanova E. E. , Yamskikh I. E.
Published: September 2021

ISSR-PCR analysis of populations of two species of the genus Achillea, growing in the southern part ofthe Krasnoyarsk Territory and the Republic of Khakassia, was carried out. The results of the study showed that a highlevel of intrapopulation variability is characteristic of Achillea asiatica and A. millefolium. Relatively low indicators ofgenetic variability are noted for populations Aa3 (A. asiatica) and Ak (A. kuprijanovii). The gene pool of all the studiedpopulations is characterized by a satisfactory state and can independently reproduce. Most of the genetic variability ofAchillea millefolium, A. asiatica, and A. kuprijanovii (74.7 %) accounts for the share of intrapopulation diversity, and25.3 % is a minor variation. The studied populations are characterized by a high level of differentiation and are dividedaccording to a systematic criterion.

Authors: Batkin A. A. , Vaganov A. V. , Kechaykin A. A. , Shmakov A. I.
Published: September 2021

The spores of the following species from genus Cystopteris Bernh from the Trans-Ili Alatau and AltaiSayan regions were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM): Cystopteris almaatensis Kotukhov, Cystopterisdickieana R. Sim, Cystopteris gureevi Stepanov, Cystopteris fragilis Bernh. The characters of their perisporium wererevealed. The results obtained from the territories of the Altai-Sayan region and the Trans-Ili Alatau confirm the divisionof the spores by the type of perisporium published previously by the scientists of Tomsk State University. Thus, weobserved differences in the number and size of the elements of the peresporium, as well as a small difference in the size ofthe spores of individual species. Most spores are characterized by the same minimum size values, but differ in maximumsize. The data on the quantity of elements of perisporium also varies, for example, spores from the Altai-Sayan region andthe Trans-ili Alatau are characterized by their smaller number.
Assessment of leaf blade shape variability of Polygonum monspeliense Thiebaut ex Pers. by geometric morphometry methods at growing on soil substrates of technogenic territories
Authors: Shtirts Yu. A.
Published: September 2021

Using geometric morphometry methods, we analyzed the variability of the shape of the leaf blade of Polygonum monspeliense Thiе́baut ex Pers., grown on various soil substrates. It was established that soil characteristics affectthe formation of the leaf blade of P. monspeliense: leaf blades of plants grown on soils transformed as a result of technogenic impacts of the territories are different in form from leaf blades of specimens grown on soil. Subsequent accumulation of data will verify the presence or absence of a correlation of the shape of the leaf blade of P. monspeliense withspecific edaphic characteristics. It is advisable to further search for informative descriptors of the form in their numericalexpression in order to create a bioindication scale.

Universal scanning-free initiation of eukaryote protein translation–a new normal
Authors: Auparakkitanon Saranya , Wilairat Prapon
Published: September 2021

A unique feature of eukaryote initiation of protein translation is a so-called scanning of 5′-untranslated region (5′-UTR) by a ribosome initiation complex to enable bound Met-tRNAi access to the initiation codon located further downstream. Here, we propose a universal scanning-free translation initiation model that is independent of 5′-UTR length and applicable to both 5′-m7G (capped) and uncapped mRNAs.
Recent developments in photocatalytic degradation of insecticides and pesticides
Authors: Singh Santosh Kumar , Mishra Pradeep Kumar , Upadhyay Siddh Nath
Published: September 2021

Widespread use of pesticides in agricultural and domestic sectors and their long half-life have led to their accumulation in the environment beyond permissible limits. Advanced chemical oxidation methods including photocatalytic degradation are being widely investigated for their mineralization. Photocatalytic degradation is the most promising method for degrading pesticides as well as other organic pollutants. Titanium dioxide with or without modification has been widely used as the photocatalyst. Some research groups have also tried other photocatalysts. This review presents a critical summary of the research results reported during the past two decades as well as the scope for future research in this area.
Revisiting German two-way prepositions
Authors: Jach Daniel
Published: September 2021

German two-way prepositions have long troubled grammar writing. Unlike most other German prepositions, they occur with both accusative and dative case. Their case is difficult to predict and has been attributed to different underlying meaning construals. Recent exploratory corpus studies propose that, in addition, their case depends on multiple co-occurring contextual variables. Following this approach, this study uses multivariate regression and collostructional analysis to investigate what determines the case of two-way prepositions in a large sample of authentic language use. Based on the results, this study then attempts to provide a usage-based description of the case of two-way prepositions. Contrary to expectations, none of the proposed variables had much influence on case, suggesting that the effects observed in the literature only hold for specific contexts. Instead, the results indicated associations of accusative and dative with individual prepositions and specific lexical items in the context. Framed in terms of usage-based construction grammar, this is interpreted as item-specific constructional prototypes that emerge from typical usage patterns and, once established, determine case based on form-meaning overlap with the current context of use. In line with recent usage-based research on grammar, a first attempt is made to describe case as part of a network of associative links between constructions and lexical items.
High fructose corn syrup supplementation progressively increased serum adenosine and inosine: Inosine raising blood pressure and heart rate in rats
Authors: Villalobos-Molina Rafael
Published: September 2021

High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) over-consumption underlies the obesity worldwide epidemics. Hepatic fructose metabolism includes fructolysis, lipogenesis, and purines degradation to uric acid. The aim of this study was to evaluate HFCS long-term effects on serum and hepatic adenosine (Ado) and inosine (Ino), as well as in vivo Ino effects on cardiovascular function. Fed male Wistar rats were subjected to 30% HFCS-enriched drinking water for five months (n = 15); every month, nucleosides were determined in serum and in isolated liver perfusate. Three months-old male naive Wistar rats were pithed and cannulated to record blood pressure and heart rate after Ino administration (n = 3). Rats consuming HFCS increased both Ado and Ino progressively in serum and livers’ perfusate; Ino increased cardiovascular function. The progressive Ado and Ino hepatic release by fructose-enriched diet suggests their contribution to raise glycemia through their gluconeogenic activation, and a higher serum Ino concentration might be related to increase in arterial blood pressure.

From Binge-Watching to Binge-Scrolling
Authors: Kendall Tina
Published: September 2021

This article approaches the paradigm of binge-watching from within a wider ecology of networked media forms and practices, which have collectively reinforced a relationship between staying home, staying connected, and staying safe during the pandemic. It explores how the short form video platform TikTok has strategically tapped into the pleasures associated with the binge model, in order to construct the nascent concept of binge-scrolling as one means of addressing the thorny problem of lockdown boredom. The piece suggests that the paradigm of bingeing now exists across a spectrum of media forms and practices, operating as one specific means of organizing time and attention in an age of digital psychopolitics.
Reclaiming Arab “Skin”
Authors: Qureshi Bilal
Published: September 2021

FQ columnist Bilal Qureshi turns a spotlight on Kaouther Ben Hania’s provocative and daring feature film The Man Who Sold His Skin (2020). Nominated for the Oscar for Best International Feature as Tunisia’s first official nominee, Skin is a long-overdue satirization of that earnest and recurring narrative about the helpless migrant refugee and noble white saviors. In telling the story of Sam Ali (Yahya Mahayni), a Syrian refugee who makes a Faustian bargain with an art world superstar, Skin asks what it means to be free. Turning the psychological experience of marginalization into a work of palpable and visceral storytelling, the film explores urgent themes that encapsulate the centuries of violence—both physical and psychological—that cultural colonialism has inflicted on brown bodies.
Psychological and pedagogical support of the social success of adolescents in school
Authors:   Novosibirsk State Pedagogical University, Shabanov Artyom Gennadievich
Published: September 2021

At present, the issue of development, formation and support of the social success of the younger generation is relevant on a global scale and in Russia. In adolescence, new basic needs and leading activities are formed, so it is very important to effectively interact with other people and positively self-actualize. The purpose of the article is to analyze the social success of adolescents and develop recommendations for the psychological and pedagogical development of success. Methodology and methods of research. An activity-based approach that sets the benchmark for the inclusion of a teenager in a variety of directions of emotionally saturated socially recognized and socially approved activities. Adolescence was studied in the works of L. I. Bozhovich, T. V. Dragunov, N. I. Krylov, A.V. Petrovsky, N. N. Tolstykh, D. I. Feldstein, D. B. Elkonin, E. Erikson and others. Studies of the theory of success were conducted on a multi-scale in various branches of social and humanitarian knowledge by domestic scientists (V. I. Bakshtanovsky, N. A. Baturin, O. I. Efremova, E. T. Konyukhova, E. M. Korzh, G. Yu. Ksenzova, V. A. Labunskaya, A. K. Markova, N. I. Nefedova, A. M. Rikel, G. L. Tulchinsky) and foreign scientists (A. Bandura, U. James, D. A. Dilman, K. Mannheim, R. Strenberg, P. Tillich, E. Fromm). Research methods: test of life orientations (D. Krambo, L. Makholik, adaptation of D. A. Leontiev), questionnaire “Determination of success” (D. A. Bukhalenkova), questionnaire “Style of self-regulation of behavior”, expert assessment of social success (N. V. Kalinina). Conclusion. Pedagogical observation allowed us to judge the lack of a deep understanding of social success among adolescents, the veiled value views on social attitudes, principles, norms and requirements. The respondents are influenced by authorities who directly invest certain ideals of the present and future in the ideological position of a teenager.

In 2020, the World Health Organization announced the beginning of a pandemic of the new coronavirus infection COVID-19. To prevent the spread of viral infection in all regions of the Russian Federation, a self-isolation regime was announced. In this connection, on March 15, 2020, the Ministry of Education recommended that all higher educational institutions carry out educational activities using modern information and telecommunication technologies that allow learning at a distance without direct contact between the teacher and the student - distance learning. The introduction of self-isolation and the transition to distance education led to the need to change the usual way of life, and adapt to the prevailing conditions of educational activity. The aim of this work is to analyze data on the impact of distance learning on the quality of students’ health. Methodology and research methods. The work was performed using a descriptive method by collecting, summarizing and analyzing literature data regarding the problem being studied. Results. The authors have highlighted the main characteristics of distance education. An analysis of modern sources has shown that, given the modern achievements in the field of telecommunication technologies, distance education is not fully capable of replacing the classical one; there are negative aspects both in the quality of training of students and in relation to the health of all participants in the educational process. Conclusion. With the continuation of teaching using modern information and telecommunication technologies, it is necessary to develop and implement programs aimed at preserving health and adapting to the conditions of distance education.
The E-modulus of the oocyte is a non-destructive measure of zona pellucida hardening
Authors: Schmitz Carlo , Sadr Seyedeh Zeynab , Körschgen Hagen , Kuske Michael , Schoen Jennifer , Stöcker Walter , Jahnen-Dechent Willi , Floehr Julia
Published: September 2021

After fertilization, the oocyte-specific metalloproteinase ovastacin is released and cleaves the zona pellucida protein 2 (ZP2), making the zona pellucida impermeable to sperm. Before fertilization, the zona remains permeable because previously released ovastacin is inhibited by fetuin-B. Consequently, in the absence of fetuin-B, ZP2 cleavage occurs prematurely and leads to infertility of female fetuin-B deficient mice. In contrast, fetuin-B/ovastacin double-deficient oocytes show a permanently permeable zona with intact ZP2. In this study, we asked if the elastic modulus of the zona pellucida informs about ZP2 cleavage and thus could serve as a new reference of oocyte fertility. Therefore, we determined the elastic modulus of mouse oocytes by nanoindentation as a direct measure of mechanical zona hardening. The elastic modulus reflects ZP2 cleavage, but with more than double sensitivity compared to immunoblot analysis. The elastic modulus measurement allowed to define the range of zona hardening, confined by the extreme states of the zona pellucida in fetuin-B and ovastacin-deficient oocytes with cleaved and uncleaved ZP2, respectively. We present here nanoindentation as a method to quantify the effect of potential contributing factors on the zona hardening of individual oocytes. To demonstrate this, we showed that mechanical hardening of the zona pellucida is forced by recombinant ovastacin, inhibited by additional administration of fetuin-B, and unaffected by zinc. Since the change in elastic modulus is induced by ZP2 cleavage, an automated elastic modulus measurement of oocytes may serve as a novel sensitive, non-destructive, marker-free, and observer-unbiased method for assessing individual oocyte quality.

Published: September 2021

Finnish higher education consists of research-oriented universities and teaching-oriented universities of applied sciences, and both sectors have a role in research, development and innovation. This paper focuses on governance and management at the institutional and academic unit levels, based on responses to several questions in the APIKS survey regarding the influence of academics, performance targets of academic units and the influence of academics in decision making and workload. Institutions in both sectors of Finnish higher education emphasise strategies and are heavily reliant on public funding. Both sectors also have an orientation to strong performance management.
The University Administrative Staff Perception of Inclusion in Higher Education
Authors: Nīmante Dita , Baranova Sanita , Stramkale Ligita
Published: September 2021

This study investigates university administrative staff perception of inclusion in higher education at the university level. The study uses the University of Latvia as a case to answer the following research questions: What constitutes inclusion in university education, how accessibility is provided? What are the support systems provided for diverse students? What support and training are provided to administrative and academic staff to ensure that the educational needs of diverse student bodies are met? The methodology employed is exploratory and descriptive, and uses the interview method and semi-structured questionnaire. The sample is made of seven administrative staff members representing all levels of administration in the University. Findings suggest that administrative staff members perceive inclusion as a new principle for HE, where diversity is perceived in its broader sense. Findings indicate that support is provided to all students, but that the support is not designed specifically for students with diverse needs. Findings suggested that none of the administrative staff or academics had received training on how to address student diversity.
Artistic strategy and political communication
Authors: Bilyi Oleg
Published: September 2021

The main research narratives of the article are: the influence of artistic strategy on the political communication in the condition of post truth; political imagination and regime of post truth; art and regime of truth; rationality of illusions in the political communication; the techniques of artistic suggestion in public dialogue. It deals with the principle of reliability, the legitimacy rituals in the hunting for the voters. It is analyzed the mythological transformation, imitative mythology of the modern medias. It is discerned the technological integration of art in religion and politics, communication actions that make its “generic” feature and the “generic” burden at the same time. Such notions as poetry, art and technology are connected with the unfolding of the technological refinement in all spheres of human activity. The author explains the need of the mythological distortion as the basis for the building of reality. It deals with the PR- technology transformation as the particular case of the cultural-political project into undeniable social value. It is defined the role of the artistic and political projects as the communicative prosthesis. Simultaneously the author traces the ouster of illusion in public communication. He analyzes the modalities of the communicative practice and communicative experience reduction in the socialization process as well as the technological perfection in the mythological representation. The special features of the mythological absorption as the negation of law and social subject are determined here. It is also defined the sense of the law rationality regarding the rationality of myth.

Adults were found in association with the Indian Screw Tree, Helicteres isora L. (Sterculiaceae). We include photographs of living H. nigromaculata and brief comments on morphology and colouration.
Repressive Policy of the Ussr Towards Certain Peoples in the Years of the Great Patriotic War (in Particular, the Bulgarians in the Urals)
Authors: Mikhail Kamenskikh
Published: September 2021

The article is devoted to studying Russian Bulgarians living in the Urals in the 1940s with the help of archive materials of the Chelyabinsk and Sverdlovsk regions as well as Perm Krai. During the Great Patriotic War the USS Rcitizens of Bulgarian origin, like many other peoples, were subject to repressions which meant enrollment in labour army and deporting every single Bulgarian of the Crimea. As a result of the semeasures, a significant number of Bulgarians were moved to the territory of the modern Urals. The deported Bulgarians settled in areas of logging (forest exploitation) in the north of Molotov and Sverdlovsk regions, and members of the labour army were employed in the trust organization «Chelyabmetallurgstroi». The Bulgarians were deported along with other peoples of the Crimea. They did not form compact settlement in the new areas but managed to preserve their traditional culture. Some families were even able to organize permanent lodging in the Urals, pursue a career and contribute to the development of the region. The author is convinced that the judicial legal documents kept in archives as well as field trip research results may serve as a significant but not sufficiently appreciated source of investigating the history of deporting Russian Bulgarians. The topicality of the sources grew after the year 2020 when the 75-years’ period of storing documents of the year 1945 expired. Autobiographies, biographic information, interrogation protocols enable to obtain a detailed reconstruction of deportation circumstances and the process of enrollment into labour army, and to see these events through the prism of the repressed people themselves. Researching the history of repression, inparticular – repression of the Bulgarians – has revealed how complex and controversial the policy of the soviet state towards certain peoples during the Great Patriotic War was.
Students’ Mental Health Habits

Published: September 2021

Students’ life can be stressful and for some, it may cause mental distress. Besides being a major public health challenge, mental distress can influence academic achievements. The main objective of the current study was to examine college students for their mental health and come
up with constructive solutions. Today’s younger generation represents the largest group of students. The transition from adolescence into young adulthood involves major changes in several areas- social, emotional, psychological, financial,
and relationships. And this transition period can cause rational challenges that some teenagers experience stressful. It has also been mentioned that the proportion of students who experience their student life mentally stressful is increasing and for some, it may be a direct cause for mental
illness. The paper focuses on how mental illness can affect one’s intellect and create barriers for their overall development. This paper includes a doctrinal method where we have surveyed 100 university students via a questionnaire. Depression, anxiety, and stress have been shown to
be correlated to poor academic performances signifying a self-perpetuating disadvantage of students suffers from these mental health issues. We have also put light on how students can overcome these evils of recent times. Some solutions include awareness programs, healthy discussions with
elders, exercising, and yoga for patience and calmness.

Published: September 2021

ABSTRACT RNA-seq is a technique based on the large-scale sequencing of transcript-derived cDNAs using next-generation sequencing platforms mostly used today to characterize an organism’s transcriptome. The analysis of RNA-seq data allows for identifying genes differentially expressed in a given condition, such as salt stress. This study aimed to search and characterize genes from the African oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) highly up-regulated during salt stress, with a long-term goal of gene promoter prospection and validation. The apical leaves from the control (electrical conductivity of ~2 dS m-1) and salt-stressed (~40 dS m-1) young oil palm plants, collected at 5 and 12 days after the beginning of the stress, were subjected to extraction of total RNA, with three plants (replicates) per treatment. The complete genome ofE. guineensis, available at the National Center for Biotechnology Information, was used as the reference genome - BioProject PRJNA192219. The differential expression analysis led to the selection for further characterization of seven genes, which had increased expressions of 37-84 times under salt stress. The strategy used in this study enabled the selection of seven salt-responsive genes highly up-regulated during salt stress, and some of them coded for proteins already reported as responsible for salinity tolerance in other plant species through over-expression or knockout.

ABSTRACT Vegetal mulching can mitigate the harmful effects of salts present in irrigation water. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of irrigation water salinity and mulching on the growth and yield of beet crops. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse at Redenção, Ceará State. The experimental design was completely randomized in a 2 × 4 factorial scheme, with five replicates, composed of two levels of electrical conductivity of irrigation water - ECw: tap water - 0.3 dS m-1 and saline solution - 5.8 dS m-1; and four types of mulching (rice hulls, carnauba bagana, crop residues, and a control treatment without soil cover). The use of vegetal mulching, mitigated the effects of irrigation with saline water on the variables plant height, leaf area, stem diameter, and tuberous root. The increase of the salt concentration in irrigation water negatively affected the number of leaves, length of the tuberous root, and yield. But, it increased the soluble solids in the beet crop.

Resumo: A implantação do sistema de pós-graduação, visando à obtenção de títulos de Mestre e Doutor em Medicina é apreciada, tendo em conta a sua possível significação como suporte para atividades de investigação. Os resultados quantitativamente favoráveis parecem contrariados pelos seguintes descaminhos perceptíveis: a) a imposição de um sistema fechado e exclusivista de pós-graduação, que despreza a competência previamente comprovada em pesquisa, e que se torna falho ou indiferente à seleção continuada dos mais aptos resultando mais na valorização da titulação acadêmica do que no bom treinamento; b) a inadequação sóciocultural da estrutura da pós-graduação, que resulta da interpretação errônea do modelo visado, levando ao artificialismo e ao elitismo do sistema; c) a orientação e a interferência, cientificamente indesejáveis, das agências de planejamento, distribuição e administração de bolsas e fundos de pesquisa têm estimulado a perseguição de objetivos secundários, favorecendo o gigantismo ou a composição apenas formal dos projetos, antes que levando à avaliação de seus méritos científicos, sociais ou econômicos; d) a insuficiência e a inelasticidade dos mecanismos e da estrutura administrativa, nas universidades e outros órgãos executores são inadequados às exigências de investigação, em um meio carente e pouco estimulante.

Resumo: Este artigo analisa a organização curricular do Departamento de Medicina Preventiva e Social da Faculdade de Ciências Médicas da UNICAMP, de 1965 a 1982. Através da recuperação de documentos - programas de ensino, relatórios, catálogos de cursos, o estudo situa as práticas e os conteúdos ministrados, assim como suas vinculações com as propostas educacionais preventivistas. Mostra a crescente incorporação de áreas de conhecimento e sua compartimentalização, a dicotomia entre a prática teórica do social e a prática médica: discute as atividades extra-murais e enfatiza o caráter básico das disciplinas que constituem o campo da medicina preventiva e social.

Resumo De 2003 a 2016, houve um processo de expansão das Instituições Federais de Ensino Superior (Ifes) que promoveu crescimento significativo das contratações de psicólogos por essas instituições. Diante disso, este trabalho procurou analisar a formação acadêmica e a prática profissional dos psicólogos que atuam nas Ifes por meio de duas etapas: inicialmente, realizou-se um levantamento dos psicólogos existentes nas Ifes e, em seguida, elaborou-se um questionário que foi respondido por 144 desses profissionais. As informações da primeira etapa da pesquisa indicaram que há 873 psicólogos atuando nas Ifes; que o período de maior contratação desses profissionais foi de 2008 a 2017; e que eles estão lotados em diferentes setores das Ifes, mas atuam majoritariamente na assistência estudantil. Os dados da segunda etapa do estudo indicaram que a maioria dos psicólogos que atuam nas Ifes são mulheres, tem idade entre 26 e 37 anos, apresentou tempo médio de formação inicial de 5 anos e tem qualificação lato ou stricto sensu. Os psicólogos têm enfrentado desafios variados e desenvolvido diversas atividades para responder às demandas existentes. Assim, os resultados sugerem que, no contexto de expansão e interiorização das Ifes, a psicologia tem atuado em um campo profícuo, especialmente por meio das políticas de acesso ao Ensino Superior e de permanência estudantil.
Casas históricas e museus-casa: conceitualização e desenvolvimento
Authors: Cayer Nelson Alexis , Scheiner Teresa Cristina
Published: September 2021

Resumo As categorias ‘casa histórica’ e ‘museu-casa’ começaram o seu percurso na Europa, nos EEUU e na América Latina nos séculos XVIII, XIX e XX, respectivamente. Essa trajetória as conectou, pois, para a criação de um museu-casa, era usada geralmente uma casa histórica. A discussão sobre essas categorias qualificou-se em vários países por quase nove décadas – de 1934 ao presente –, com o papel exercido por distintas entidades e teóricos da Museologia e do Patrimônio, o que contribuiu para o desenvolvimento conceitual e a sua diferenciação, principalmente nos últimos vinte e cinco anos. Apesar desse avanço, ainda existem pesquisadores que usam esses termos como se fossem sinônimos. Casa histórica é um imóvel geralmente não aberto ao público, excepcional por suas características e que pode conservar ou não seus interiores, enquanto museu-casa é uma casa musealizada que necessita de um processo posterior ao da casa histórica para poder potencializar e visibilizar os valores do prédio, atuando como museu, ou seja, fazendo com que espaços criados para uso privado se tornem lugares públicos de exibição. A compreensão destas diferenças e similitudes resulta crucial na hora da abordagem museológica porque envolve discussões em torno da concepção do bem patrimonial.

Abstract: The fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, the causal agent of white mold, is widespread throughout the world. The disease is considered to be one of the major diseases of soybean and bean crops in Brazil. The pathogen S. sclerotiorum is spread by soybean and bean seeds both in the form of sclerotia and dormant mycelium inside the seeds. The objective of this work was to evaluate the relationship between different potentials of S. sclerotiorum in soybean and bean seeds and the performance of these seeds, as well as to verify the localization and quantification of the inoculum of the pathogen in the seeds inoculated by Real-time PCR (qPCR), validating the term inoculum potential. Soybean and bean seeds were inoculated with the fungus by the osmotic conditioning method based on the exposure of the seeds to the fungus for periods of 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, and 96 h. Molecular analysis was carried out by means of qPCR in whole seeds and dissected in the integument, cotyledon and embryonic axis. The results showed that the effects of S. sclerotiorum on seed germination and vigor were progressive and proportional to the increases in inoculum potentials, since there was more severe damage to the seeds and consequently to the emerged plants at the highest potential (P96). The inoculum of the pathogen was found in all parts of the evaluated seeds, even at its lowest inoculum potential (P24), with an increasing DNA concentration, and the integument obtained a greater amount of DNA than the embryo, in comparison.

La COVID-19 ha constituido un reto de múltiples dimensiones para la humanidad, aún más para los decisores responsables de accionar de manera certera y oportuna para su enfrentamiento. En Perú, con una tendencia actual favorable de la Pandemia, es inminente la propagación de la variante Delta, de allí que requieran de informaciones predictivas que posibiliten tomar decisiones anticipadas para mitigar sus efectos. Consecuentemente se estableció como objetivo simular escenarios aplicando la modelación físico-matemática, que predigan el comportamiento de la COVID-19 en Perú y faciliten la toma de decisiones. Como métodos y técnicas se aplicaron: análisis-síntesis, revisión documental y modelación físico-matemática mediante herramientas y funciones del software MATLAB. Se reconocen como resultados: determinación del comportamiento de las principales variables de la COVID-19 en Perú; modelo físico-matemático basado en el clásico SIR con nuevos compartimientos relacionados con la vacunación y los expuestos, así como su ajuste a los datos de Perú; simulación de escenarios, incluyendo la variante Delta, para fallecidos, infectados acumulados, infectados no vacunados e infectados vacunados. Se concluyó que: El modelo concebido para la simulación de escenarios de evolución de la COVID-19, demostró su capacidad de predicción del comportamiento de las variables más importantes que determinan dicha evolución en Perú; debe ocurrir otra ola de contagios y llegarse a cifras acumulativas entre 2,9 y 3,36 millones de infectados y entre 215 y 255 mil fallecidos; las principales estrategias de mitigación deben dirigirse a garantizar el distanciamiento y aislamiento social, así como a incrementar el régimen de vacunación.
Anatomical and Centroid Point Variation in Cephalometrics
Authors: MJ Trenouth
Published: September 2021

Objective: The variance of cephalometric points depends not only on the variability of the points themselves but on the magnitude of the distances between them. The study was undertaken to test the effect of standardizing the variance by dividing it by the mean distance to give the standardized variance.
