Park kulturowy jako forma ochrony dziedzictwa kulturowego. Doświadczenia gmin Dolnego Śląska
Authors: Pawłowska Agnieszka
Published: May 2018

Park kulturowy jest jedną z form ochrony zabytków. Przedmiotem ochrony jest w tym wypadku krajobraz kulturowy, czyli przestrzeń zawierająca elementy przyrodnicze i wytwory cywilizacji, historycznie ukształtowana w wyniku czynników naturalnych i działania człowieka. Wyłączną kompetencję do tworzenia parków kulturowych mają gminy. Jednak mimo dużej swobody w tym zakresie ta forma ochrony krajobrazu nie stała się powszechna, czego wyrazem jest niewielka liczba parków kulturowych w Polsce. Na Dolnym Śląsku są jedynie cztery takie obszary. Analiza procesu tworzenia parków i ich funkcjonowania pokazuje, że zarządzanie krajobrazem w postaci parku kulturowego nie spełnia oczekiwań. Sytuację zmienić może wejście w życie ustawy krajobrazowej, która służyć ma m.in. uporządkowaniu chaosu przestrzennego i nadmiaru reklamy w przestrzeni publicznej.

Published: May 2018

Background: Direct comparisons between countries in core HIV care parameters are often hampered by differences in data collection. Aim: Within the EuroSIDA study, we compared levels of antiretroviral treatment (ART) coverage and virological suppression (HIV RNA < 500 copies/mL) across Europe and explored temporal trends. Methods: In three cross-sectional analyses in 2004–05, 2009–10 and 2014–15, we assessed country-specific percentages of ART coverage and virological suppression among those on ART. Temporal changes were analysed using logistic regression. Results: Overall, the percentage of people on ART increased from 2004–05 (67.8%) to 2014–15 (78.2%), as did the percentage among those on ART who were virologically suppressed (75.2% in 2004–05, 87.7% in 2014–15). However, the rate of improvement over time varied significantly between regions (p < 0.01). In 2014–15, six of 34 countries had both ART coverage and virological suppression of above 90% among those on ART. The pattern varied substantially across clinics within countries, with ART coverage ranging from 61.9% to 97.0% and virological suppression from 32.2% to 100%. Compared with Western Europe (as defined in this study), patients in other regions were less likely to be virologically suppressed in 2014–15, with the lowest odds of suppression (adjusted odds ratio = 0.16; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.13–0.21) in Eastern Europe. Conclusions: Despite overall improvements over a decade, we found persistent disparities in country-specific estimates of ART coverage and virological suppression. Underlying reasons for this variation warrant further analysis to identify a best practice and benchmark HIV care across EuroSIDA.
Progresso Interdisciplinar da Medicina
Authors: Correia-Pinto Jorge
Published: May 2018

Portugal é muitas vezes citado como um bom exemplo na prestação de cuidados de saúde. Para tal concorreram a investigação (engenharia) biomédica, a evolução técnica e a diferenciação clínica de diferentes especialidades. Para que esta evolução se transfira para o paciente com o seu máximo potencial, o diálogo e a interdisciplinaridade são imprescindíveis.

Nesta Edição da Gazeta Médica, vários artigos trazem até ao leitor alguns exemplos desta evolução e interdisciplinaridade, que continua todos os dias nos nossos hospitais. Assim não podemos deixar de salientar o enorme progresso que houve no desenvolvimento de antimicrobianos e logicamente, o desafio que agora enfrentamos, o da resistência aos antibióticos. Por outro lado, a biologia molecular ao permitir-nos conhecer melhor a origem e fisiopatologia de inúmeras doenças, abriu um janela de oportunidade para individualizar o algoritmo clínico de orientação e tratamento clínicos. É com naturalidade, portanto, que a seguir encontramos vários artigos que relatam estratégias de individualização terapêutica, aumentando o efeito terapêutico, e minimizando os efeitos laterais.

Sendo o relator deste editorial, um cirurgião, não posso deixar de dar enfoque à forma como a cirurgia minimamente invasiva tem revolucionado a intervenção cirúrgica. A história reporta-nos que foram os urologistas e os ginecologistas os pioneiros em muitos dos passos determinantes para chegarmos à cirurgia laparoscópica. Aqueles e os cirurgiões digestivos documentaram clinicamente que o desenvolvimento da cirurgia minimamente invasiva trouxe consigo várias vantagens que, resumidamente, resultam numa convalescença pós-operatória mais suave e mais curta. Inspirado pelos benefícios bem documentados de cirurgia minimamente invasiva em adultos e crianças, o século XXI começou com as primeiras tentativas de transportar as vantagens desta abordagem para recém-nascidos, tal como reportado neste número da Gazeta Médica, com a descrição de um caso de atresia duodenal corrigida de forma minimamente invasiva no período neonatal.

Para o futuro, temos apenas uma certeza, que a evolução dos cuidados médicos continuará com o contributo de todas as ciências, daí o meu convite para o leitor consultar o artigo de revisão sobre a Engenharia e Medicina.
Estado da Arte dos Doentes com Cancro do Pulmão de Não Pequenas Células: Doença Avançada e Mutação EGFR Positiva
Authors: Parente Bárbara
Published: May 2018

O aparecimento de terapêuticas dirigidas, trouxe na última década uma enorme esperança para os doentes com cancro do pulmão. Os inibidores dos recetores do fator de crescimento epidérmico (EGFR), erlotinib e gefitinib (inibidores de tirosina quinase TKI), estiveram na vanguarda das mudanças da prática de tratamento para doença avançada do cancro do pulmão de não pequenas células (CPNPC), nos últimos 10 anos, com a descoberta de mutações EGFR que conferem sensibilidade a inibidores da tirosina quinase no CPNPC.

O ano de 2004, marcou o início da era da medicina de precisão para o cancro do pulmão. Os estudos randomizados de fase III investigaram o papel de dois inibidores de EGFR-TKI, gefitinib e erlotinib, como tratamento de primeira linha em comparação com a quimioterapia à base de platina, em doentes com CPNPC doença avançada com mutações de ativação do EGFR.

Um TKI de segunda geração (afatinib) encontra-se já aprovado pela EMA com a mesma indicação após resultados dos clínicos do Lux Lung 3 e 6. No entanto, os doentes com mutação EGFR positiva, regra geral, progridem após 10-12 meses de tratamento, necessitando de novas opções terapêuticas. Inibidores de 3ª geração entretanto desenvolvidos (dirigidos à mutação de resistência do T790M, e outras, após rebiópsia), demostraram uma notável eficácia, em doentes já tratados e com um perfil de toxicidade ainda menor que os TKI de 1ª e 2ª geração.

Síndrome Antifosfolipídica: Uma Revisão a Propósito de Três Casos Clínicos
Authors: Mayor Joana Sotto , Robalo M , Pacheco AP , Esperança S , Capela C
Published: May 2018

A síndrome antifosfolipídica é uma doença autoimune e sistémica que se define com base em achados clínicos e laboratoriais, ou seja, presença de tromboses recorrentes, arteriais ou venosas em pessoas jovens, abortos espontâneos recorrentes, trombocitopenia e níveis elevados de anticorpos antifosfolipídeos: anticoagulante lúpico, anticorpos anticardiolipina IgM ou IgG, assim como anticorpos IgM ou IgG anti-beta 2 glicoproteína I e antiprotrombina. Os indivíduos com síndrome antifosfolipídica podem apresentar a síndrome isoladamente, ou em associação a outros distúrbios, nomeadamente autoimunes, sendo o lúpus eritematoso sistémico aquele que dentre todos é o mais comummente associado.  No presente artigo os autores apresentam três casos clínicos nos quais as manifestações trombóticas levaram à investigação de síndrome antifosfolipídica, a qual veio a confirmar-se através de estudo imunológico. A adequação terapêutica permitiu prevenir episódios de recorrência, quando o grau de gravidade dos mesmos o possibilitou.

Insulinoma: Uma Causa Rara de Hipoglicemia
Authors: Matta-Coelho Cláudia , Monteiro Ana Margarida , Marques Olinda
Published: May 2018

O insulinoma é o tumor neuroendócrino pancreático funcionante mais frequente. A apresentação clínica variável pode mimetizar outras patologias. Doente do sexo feminino, 61 anos, com vários episódios de alteração do comportamento. Num desses episódios verificou-se hipoglicemia. O estudo etiológico revelou valores inapropriadamente elevados de insulina e peptídeo-C, compatíveis com hiperinsulinismo endógeno. Apesar da tomografia computadorizada, ressonância magnética e cintigrafia dos recetores de somatostatina não revelarem nenhuma lesão, a ecoendoscopia demonstrou uma formação nodular infracentrimétrica pancreática cujo diagnóstico citológico foi concordante com insulinoma. A doente foi submetida a excisão da lesão e mantém-se sem queixas. Salientamos a apresentação clínica inespecífica e a pequena dimensão da lesão, o que pode levar a um hiato temporal significativo entre o início da sintomatologia e o  tratamento.

Published: May 2018

O impacto alimentar esofágico é uma situação que na maioria dos casos é secundária a patologia esofágica congénita ou adquirida, podendo constituir a primeira manifestação da doença. Descreve-se um rapaz, 11 anos, saudável, com sialorreia e dor retrosternal que surgiram subitamente durante o jantar. Foi submetido a endoscopia digestiva alta, que revelou um fragmento de carne impactado no terço distal do esófago (que foi extraído) e estrias longitudinais na mucosa. A análise histológica das biópsias esofágicas foi compatível com eosinofilia esofágica. Iniciou terapêutica com inibidor da bomba de protões com melhoria clínica e histológica. O diagnóstico diferencial das principais causas de impacto alimentar associadas a eosinofilia esofágica, nomeadamente esofagite eosinofílica, doença do refluxo gastroesofágico e eosinofilia esofágica respondedora a inibidor da bomba de protões, constitui um desafio clínico.

The Dance Chose Me: Womanist Reflections on Bèlè Performance in Contemporary Martinique
Authors: Maddox-Wingfield Camee
Published: May 2018

In contemporary Martinique, an overseas territory of France located in the Lesser Antilles, the term bèlè is used to describe a subculture or a way of life that is organized around a rich complex of ancestral Afro-Creole drum-dance practices. In this article, the author analyzes the therapeutic functions of bèlè performance from a womanist theoretical framework in order to uncover the interrelationship among Black women’s sensual expressivity, spirituality, and emotional wellness in Martinique. This research relies on qualitative data analysis and a reflexive analytical approach to illuminate how Black women in Martinique draw from their experiences with dance to conceptualize holistic notions of health, well-being, and continuity.

In a society where Black women have been historically objectified based on colonial notions of sexuality, are shamed as dependents on French public assistance, and suffer disproportionately from family violence, bèlè is an emancipatory space where women are valorized for their physical agility, competitive display, and sensual dance prowess. On the bèlè dance floor, women’s authority and erotic agency are asserted and applauded. Drawing from notions of the “healthy erotic” and the “politics of pleasure” (Morgan 2015), the author argues that this woman-centered aspect of bèlè performance has a critical therapeutic function for Black women in Martinique—interpreted as restorative sensuality in that it brings a remarkable sense of affirmation and preservation of self and community in ways that are unique to bèlè women.
Normalized Chaos: Black Feminism, Womanism, and the (Re)definition of Trauma and Healing
Authors: Ricks Shawn Arango
Published: May 2018

This paper will discuss how the lens through which Black women view narratives of trauma and resiliency problematizes healing. Lessons learned via elders on how to view and situate themselves within the world can lead to living in a state of “normalized chaos.” Normalized chaos is defined as a defense mechanism used by Black women to minimize daily hassels and life situations, viewing them as part of their “normal” life. Normalizing chaos leads to cocreated self-violence and trauma under the guise of martyrdom. By disrupting the narrative of normalized chaos within an expanded understanding of Black feminism and womanism, Black women can more fully engage in holistic health journeys.
The Parameter Complex in the Music of Sofia Gubaidulina
Authors: Ewell Philip A.
Published: May 2018

Although the music of Sofia Gubaidulina is well known, it has received little analytical attention. Approximately twenty-five years ago her friend and colleague Valentina Kholopova worked out a system for analyzing Gubaidulina’s music. Kholopova shows that the composer usually groups together five so-called expression parameters (EP): articulation and methods of sound production, melody, rhythm, texture, and compositional writing. Moreover, each EP has either a consonant or a dissonant function; rarely does Gubaidulina mix the two functions. These ten parameters—five EPs functioning as either dissonant or consonant expressions—form what Kholopova calls the Parameter Complex in Gubaidulina’s music. In this article I examine these topics, using Gubaidulina’s Concordanza and Ten Preludes for Solo Cello as exemplars.
A Platonic Model of Funky Rhythms
Authors: Cohn Richard
Published: May 2018

Many popular and improvised musics project duple meter at multiple levels of a metric hierarchy, and superimpose upon them a series of three-unit spans that induce multi-levelled conflicts with that hierarchy. Adopting a real-time generative model from Pressing 1983, this paper attributes these metric conflicts to relations among the small numbers that underlie the meters. This model suggests a deep resemblance between funky rhythms and the acoustic relations at the core of Plato's model of musical tone. Examples of 3-generation, superimposed on cycles of 8, 16, 32, and 64 units, are examined in compositions of Scott Joplin, Duke Ellington, Robert and Richard Sherman, Bill Withers, and Deadmau5.
Types and Applications of P3,0 Seventh-Chord Transformations in Late Nineteenth-Century Music
Authors: Reenan Samuel , Bass Richard
Published: May 2018

The expression P3,0refers to one class of parsimonious voice-leading transformations between seventh chords introduced in a 1998 article by Jack Douthett and Peter Steinbach as Pm,n(Journal of Music Theory42 (2): 241–63). In addition to tones that may be held in common, the subscripts indicate the number of voices that move by half step (m) or whole step (n) in connecting one seventh chord to the next. P3,0designates a transformation in which one of the chord members is held in common while each of the other three moves by half step. P3,0transformations produce some of the most striking chromatic harmonic progressions in the late Romantic repertoire. This study focuses on aspects of P3,0transformations that include 1) their place in the broader context of neo-Riemannian voice-leading transformations; 2) their properties and a specific means of notating all possible P3,0types; 3) explications of how the various types are integrated within late nineteenth-century harmonic practice and interact with traditional tonal harmony; and 4) analytic applications that demonstrate how P3,0transformations operate within and contribute to musical structure, including the opening of the Prelude to Wagner’sTristan und Isolde, and a complete song (“Ruhe, meine Seele!” op. 27 no. 1) by Richard Strauss.
Cohn’s Platonic Model and the Regular Irregularities of Recent Popular Multimedia
Authors: Murphy Scott
Published: May 2018

Richard Cohn’s Platonic model of funky rhythms can be converted into a property that closely matches the asymmetrical temporal successions that most frequently occur in recent popular English-language multimedia. In the case of quintuple and septuple meters, this property also closely matches successions that most frequently occur in other forms of popular music as well. The movies from which the evidence for this claim comes range fromThe Magnificent Sevenof 1960 toKung Fu Panda 3of 2016. Some short but close analyses of filmic scenes demonstrate this property's effectiveness as a hermeneutical tool. A related property of “near realization” recruits Christopher Hasty’s projective model to explain this stylistic bias, and connects these asymmetrical successions with another seemingly dissimilar class of syncopated rhythms favored in popular music.

Nilai Waktu Dari Uang Dalam Perspektif Ekonomi Islam
Authors: Khoir Misbahul
Published: May 2018

The time value of money is associated with the current value and future value because the money received now is more worth than the money received in the future. However, is the concept of time value of money is appropriate and justified by the Shari'ah? The time value of money is a concept that says that the money of the one rupiah that can be received today is more worth than one rupiah which will be received in the future time. The concept of time value of money is needed by financial managers in making decision when will invest in an asset and determine the source of loan funds that will be chosen. Methods for the time value of money pervade; a) the method of average rate of return. This method measures the level of profit gained by an investment. The disadvantage of this method is ignoring the time value of money; b) the payback period method. The method measures how fast the investment return is, the sooner the better; c) method of net present value (NPV). This method calculates quarrel between the current value of investment and the present value of net cash receipts in the future and calculates quarrel between the present value of cash outflow (investment) and cash inflow (income) per year; d) profitability index method (PI). This method calculates ratio between the present value of net cash receipts in the future and the present value of the investment; and e) the methods of internal rate of return (IRR).  If IRR > saving or profit required → decent. Islam views money as a flow concept. Money must rotate in an economy and may not be idle for too long time. Moreover, it lets for years. Islam does not recognize the method of time value of money because this method adds value to money solely with increasing time and not effort. Islam actually knows the money value of time; that is the time has economic value as well as the money value of money. Imam Nawawi provides definition related to value addition for money based solely on the value of time is the category of riba.
Relevansi Pemikiran Ekonomi Yahya Bin Umar Dalam Perspektif Ekonomi Modern
Authors: Subhan Moh.
Published: May 2018

Islam as a religion has rules about life and the life of mankind in plenary, although sometimes it is only globally. The dimension of relationship between humans and god is static, while the dimension of relationship between human and social environment is dynamic and flexible. The second dimension of man is given the broader freedom to make rules and regulations according with the circumstance and condition of times by sticking to the rules of Shari'a. This article will try to elaborate the economic thought of Yahya ibn Umar in his book "Ahkam al-Suq", which is of relevance to the conventional economics. The objective of research is to know whether the brilliant idea of Yahya ibn Umar in his time (Century III H) is still relevant to be applied to the modern era or not. Broadly speaking, Yahya bin Umar’s thought on hisbah and matters related to markets such as; al-ta'sir (pricing), ihtikar (hoarding), and siyasah al-ighraq (dumping).

Franchising is a business of cooperation among the parties. One party is called a franchisor and another party is called the franchisee to increase market penetration, growing new businesses and open working opportunity. Maslahah mursalah is used to address and answer new issues and developments that arise due to the progress of science and modern technology, both in setting the law against new problems, no provision of law and a new law to replace the old laws that do not conform any more with the circumstances, situations, conditions and welfare of the people of today. Maslahah mursalah is one method of laws istinbath that is made hujjah. For examples of problems set by maslahah mursalah ruling, it is shown that laws enacted by the method is more nurturing and more able to realize the sharia objectives, and it is the effectiveness of maslahah mursalah in setting the Islamic rules. Franchise system has a lot of benefit. Although not perfect, but overall it gives any favor by minimizing business risks, taking maslahah and keep madharat. The franchise system, of course, has been in accordance with the rules of maslahah mursalah
PERKEMBANGAN DAN DINAMIKA PASAR SUKUK DOMESTIK: SEBUAH KAJIAN AGENDA DAN KEBIJAKAN
Authors: Fathurrahman Ayief
Published: May 2018

One of ​​Islamic financial sectors that attract much interest from the business community around the world is the global sharia obligation (sukuk) market. Sukuk has become an important instrument in sharia financial system, both as a financing instrument and investment. This instrument grew rapidly along with the growth and development of other conventional financial instruments. This estimation is based on the large number of infrastructure projects from the Gulf region and across the Muslim world seeking capital for development. This paper tries to answer the question: What are the factors that led to the issuance and development of sukuk in three countries, namely Indonesia, Malaysia, and Turkey? The result shows that government policy and agenda in order to develop sukuk can be concluded that the issuance of sukuk from three countries Indonesia, Malaysia and Turkey is influenced by several factors. However, the most dominant factor, even the factor that has always been the cause of the increased issuance of sukuk in three countries is the regulatory or policy factor, especially regarding the tax on sukuk and the existence of strong legal infrastructure as an umbrella of sukuk practice in a country. It can be said that the smaller the tax on the issuance of sukuk the more sukuk will be published. Then the second element of the regulatory factor is the existence of security guarantees in its implementation from the side of positive law imposed in a State. This factor is also very important especially in cases in Indonesia. With the legal clarity, there is no slit in the weakness of sukuk when compared with bonds. It is different from the two countries above, the advancement of sukuk issuance apart from being influenced by regulatory factors, Malaysia seems to be more benefited by the perception of the global community that Malaysia has become the Islamic economic and finance center in the world, so Malaysia is considered more experienced in this sector. This is a factor that may be considered by global investors, so that Malaysia is to be the right destination for sharia-based investment.
MOBILISASI TABUNGAN ANTARA KEUANGAN FORMAL DAN INFORMAL DALAM SISTEM KEUANGAN SYARIAH
Authors: Khoir Misbahul
Published: May 2018

Islam as a rule of life (nizam al-hayat) governs all sides of human life, including in terms of economic transactions, in doing saving activities too. So it also affects the institutions that receive savings funds. The definition of the Islamic financial system itself is a financial system that channels between parties who need funds and parties who have excess funds through financial products and services in accordance with the principles of sharia. The sharia principle is a principle based on the teachings of the Qur'an and Sunnah. In the Indonesian context, sharia principle is the principle of Islamic law in banking and finance activities based on fatwa issued by institutions that have authority in the establishment of fatwa in the field of sharia. From the background, the above description contains two important points. First, how is way of saving and investing from an Islamic point of view. Second, what is definition of Islamic Financial System. Both of these are first step in describing as problem in the scope of savings mobilization between formal and informal finance in the Islamic financial system. Islam forbids allowing idle assets, and encourages every wealth that we have to invest in the real sector. Saving is not a disbelief of the existence of sustenance from Allah SWT. Saving is a good management process of the provision of Allah SWT as a reflection of the attitude of our trust for sustenance given by Allah SWT. So it can be concluded, in the teachings of Islam, the saving is effort on the alert and as part of the household financial management process. By saving we have a time-forward perspective because it not only looks at short-term expenditures, but has made predictions of preparation for the future. Saving is part of self-control. By saving, it means that we are not carried by lust to meet the fulfillment of present or short-term satisfaction, but to control the fulfillment of our desire to be able to meet the needs of the future which is much more important. Saving is not a barrier for a person to give alms or zakah. People whose faith is strong and accustomed to saving then he will be able to expel zakah well and give alms more. People who are used to saving means having good financial planning. If so, the funds that he has will be more optimal, so will be able to pay zakah well and give alms more because the funds are well managed.

Published: May 2018

Esta investigación se centra en conocer el desarrollo de la conciencia metacognitiva y el perfil escritor de los universitarios en relación con las tareas de síntesis, altamente demandadas en la Educación Superior, pero ineficazmente abordadas por muchos estudiantes. La muestra ha estado formada por 82 universitarios, divididos en dos condiciones en las que recibieron instrucción en tareas de síntesis: enseñanza explícita y modelado con pensamiento en voz alta; respondieron a los cuestionarios i) Conocimiento metacognitivo sobre tareas de síntesis y ii) Estilos escritores. Los resultados permiten concluir que el autoconocimiento de los estudiantes acerca de las síntesis no es adecuado, aunque es mejorable con modelado o enseñanza explícita, y que los estudiantes con un perfil escritor, predominantemente revisor o planificador, son los que muestran mejor desarrollo metacognitivo.
The Implications of Intersectionality on Southeast Asian Female Students’ Educational Outcomes in the United States: A Critical Quantitative Intersectionality Analysis
Authors: Jang Sung Tae
Published: May 2018

Based on the framework of critical quantitative intersectionality, the purpose of this study is to examine the multifaceted impacts of Southeast Asian female students’ race or ethnicity, gender, and socioeconomic status on math achievement score and intention to enter higher education. This study found that math achievement scores of Southeast Asian students were significantly higher than those of other race or ethnicity groups. However, Southeast Asian female students’ intention to pursue higher education was significantly lower than that of Southeast Asian males as well as being the lowest among all female students. The school organizational characteristics used in this study did not mediate or differentiate the intersectionalities related to Southeast Asian female students. The patterns held regardless of schooling contexts.
Cancer Rehabilitation: Impact of Physical Activity on Initial Clinical Assessments
Authors: Peterson Brent M. , Brown Jessica M. , Shackelford Daniel Y.K. , Olson Trista , Lalonde Trent L. , Hayward Reid
Published: May 2018

Background: Preconditioning and prehabilitation have been reported to ameliorate a host of health- and cancer-related issues, yet few studies have examined implications of past physical activity (PA) on physiological and psychological parameters in cancer survivors. Implications of prior PA on physiological and psychosocial variables in cancer survivors were acquired during an initial assessment prior to participation in a cancer rehabilitation program.

Methods: Cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2peak), fatigue (Piper Fatigue Scale, PFS), and depression (Beck Depression Inventory, BDI) were measured (N = 807; 67 ± 13 years). PA groups were divided by self-reported prior PA history (Group 1 = none; Group 2 < 150 min/week; Group 3 ≥ 150 min/week).

Results: Significant (P < 0.05) main effects for PA were observed among all variables except the PFS affective subscale. Groups 1 and 3 were significantly (P < 0.05) different for BDI. Groups 1 and 3 were significantly (P < 0.05) different for the total, sensory, and cognitive subscales of the PFS. Finally, Groups 1 and 3, and Groups 2 and 3 differed significantly (P < 0.05) for the behavioral, sensory, and cognitive subscales of the PFS.

Conclusion: Cancer survivors with prior PA levels ≥ 150 min/week performed better on measures of VO2peak, were significantly less fatigued and depressed at initial assessment.
Pertumbuhan Lembaga Pendidikan Islam di Kerajaan Langkat Pada Tahun 1912-1942
Authors: Tanjung Muaz
Published: May 2018

Before the establishment of the Islamic Kingdom of Langkat, the people there have embraced Islam. This is because Langkat is adjacent to Aceh, which had already been ruled by an Islamic empire and it broadcast Islam to various regions, including the east coast of Sumatra. The Kingdom of Langkat, especially after relocated its Capital  to Tanjung Pura, had made Islam as a main reference and political legitimacy of the Sultan and the Kingdom in general. As a consequence, Islam is practiced by the majority of Muslim community and reflected in various fields. At the beginning of the 20th century in East Sumatra there emerged publicly funded educational institutions, including those in Langkat. However, religious subjects are not officially acknowledged. Seeing this situation, the Sultan and other Muslims felt responsible for establishing an independent Islamic educational institution. Although Islamic education was preiously taught to Muslim children, but its implementation was largely limited in mosques or private homes. The Kingdom was destined to improve the quality of Islamic education through building an independent educational institution.Keywords: Education, Islamic Empire, Langkat, Sumatera, Indonesia Sebelum berdirinya kerajaan Langkat, masyarakat di sana telah me­me­luk agama Islam. Hal ini dikarenakan wilayah Langkat berbatasan dengan Aceh yang telah memiliki kerajaan Islam dan menyiarkan Islam ke berbagai daerah, terutama di pantai timur Sumatera. Kerajaan Langkat terutama setelah berpusat di Tanjung Pura, menjadikan agama Islam sebagai pedoman dan legitimasi terhadap kebijakan-kebijakan sultan dan kerajaan secara umum. Masyarakat yang mayoritas beragama Islam dalam berbagai dinamika kehidupannya mencerminkan perilaku keislaman yang kuat. Di awal abad ke-20 M di Sumatera Timur banyak berdiri lembaga pendidikan umum, termasuk di Langkat. Namun demikian, pelajaran agama secara resmi tidak dibenarkan. Melihat keadaan ini, sultan dan umat Islam lainnya merasa bertanggungjawab untuk mendirikan lembaga pendidikan Islam yang berdiri sendiri. Meskipun pada masa sebelumnya pendidikan Islam tetap diajarkan kepada anak-anak Muslim, namun pelak­sanaannya masih berlangsung terbatas hanya di masjid atau rumah-rumah pribadi guru. Oleh karena itu Kerajaan Langkat terdorong untuk mening­katkan mutu pendidikan Islam dengan membangun lembaga pendidikan yang berdiri sendiri.Kata kunci: Pendidikan, Kerajaan Islam, Langkat, Sumatera, Indonesia

Eleftheria Ioannidou, Greek Fragments in Postmodern Frames: Rewriting Tragedy 1970–2005
Authors: Wilmer Steve
Published: May 2018

Eleftheria Ioannidou’s Greek Fragments in Postmodern Frames provides a close analysis of the recent wave of rewriting Greek tragedy, demonstrating the wealth of “postmodern” versions written and produced from 1970 to 2005. Rather than the “depoliticized theoretical position” (130) normally associated with postmodernism, these versions, according to Ioannidou, manifest a thorough engagement with current social issues.
Ashley Thorpe, Performing China on the London Stage: Chinese Opera and Global Power, 1759–2008
Authors: Chang Dongshin
Published: May 2018

Ashley Thorpe’s Performing China on the London Stage makes an important contribution to the scholarship on theatre history, Chinese opera, Sino-British contacts, orientalism, and intercultural performance. His engaging of orientalist discourse and hybridity in critical analysis is especially noteworthy and thought-provoking. The book opens up new territory for the understanding of modern and contemporary Chinese opera performances in Britain.
Reflecting on the Unknowns of History: Theatrical Ghosting, Transgenerational Remembrance, and Japanese Imperialism in theSeoul ShiminPlay Series
Authors: Nakamura Jessica
Published: May 2018

This article uses theories of theatrical ghosting to analyse Hirata Oriza’s Seoul Shimin (1989–2011), a series of four plays set during Japan’s annexation of the Korean peninsula (1910–45). The series does not elaborate on the details of Japan’s imperial history. Instead, it follows the domestic activities of a family of Japanese merchants living in Seoul. Attending to the series’s oblique references to historical events, this article asserts that Seoul Shimin frames domestic activities as imperial behaviours and marks gaps in contemporary representations of the colony. In so doing, the series portrays the history of Japanese imperialism as elusive even as it stresses the need for younger generations to engage with it.
Konstruktion einer Seelenverwandtschaft als Beitrag zur Kanonbildung: Eine Betrachtung der Goethe-Auffassungen von deutschen Sinologen
Authors: Shuangzhi Li
Published: May 2018

The canonized image of Goethe as cosmopolite-poet counts as one of the most significant visions of the author. The production and reproduction of knowledge around the cosmopolitan Goethe is itself a pattern of cultural narration which deserves thorough investigation. German sinologists as a special group of Goethe interpreters attract my attention as they develop a comparative approach to Goethe and his works, deploying their professional knowledge of Chinese culture and poetics. In this article, I explore Goethe-studies by different generations of prominent German China-experts from Richard Wilhelm and Otto Franke to Wolfgang Bauer and Günther Debon and I argue that they extend the horizon of cognition and interpretation towards an in-between-space of cultures and semiotic systems where Goethe’s cosmopolitanism adopts new nuances and meanings. Their various assertions of Goethe’s “Chineseness” display exactly the speculative and constructive character of their writings and also indicate their own diverse ideological inclinations in shaping their Goethe-images.

Published: May 2018

The aim of this paper is to determine the effects of acrobatic elements on changes in morphological characteristics in children who were experimentally treated. The sample consists of elementary school children from Kosovska Mitrovica N = 52, who regularly attend physical education classes and additional acrobatics trainings three times a week  for the implementation of acrobatics in additional classes of physical education. The variables used to assess the circular dimensions and body mass are: Upper arm circumference expressed in cm (AONDL), calf circumference expressed in cm (AOPTK), chest circumference expressed in cm AOGRK, body weight expressed in kg (AMAST). The variables used to estimate the subcutaneous fat tissue are: Upper-arm skinfold expressed in mm (ANNDL), calf skinfold expressed in mm (ANPTK), Abdominal skinfold expressed in mm ANTRB. A t-test was used to determine statistically significant differences in variables (ANNDL p=.006), (ANPTK p=.005), (ANTRB p=.008). The obtained results can contribute to the rationalization of regular and additional teaching of physical education for the optimal planning and control of work.

Presents the results of empirical study, which was attended by 246 people of different age (112 men and 134 women), which living in Donetsk, Mariupol and Kiev. We used the following methods: 2 author’s research questionnaires; Impact of Event Scale (M. Horowitz, N. Wilner). Empirically it is shown that in a situation of military conflict in Ukraine in comparison with the period before the military conflict: 1) displaced persons from the combat zone and the people currently living in Mariupol emphasize the negative impact of the situation of the military conflict in Ukraine on the well-being of their family members; 2) increased aggressiveness and proneness to conflict has been observed among the participants of the study currently living in Mariupol and among the displaced persons from the combat zone; 3) the situation of the military conflict in Ukraine has been stressful for the study participants and their families, this is especially pronounced persons from the combat zone and the people currently living in Mariupol; 4) a fairly strong and very strong degree of sleep disorders has been observed among the participants of the study currently living in Mariupol, among the displaced persons from the combat zone and among the participants residing now in Donetsk; 5) irritation and anger in connection with the event – the military conflict in Ukraine – in rather strong and very strong degree have been observed among the participants of the study currently living in Mariupol, among the displaced persons from the combat zone and among the participants residing now in Donetsk. Empirical evidence shows that the most powerful influence of the situation of the military conflict in Ukraine on relations with the immediate relatives has been observed among the displaced persons from the combat zone, in comparison with other groups of research participants. 39,84% of all study participants indicate disappointment in the state, because the state does not protect the rights of citizens. Regarding the organization of the relationship between the citizen and the state respondents think that such relationships should be based: 1) on the protection of the rights of citizens; 2) on trust, honesty; 3) on respect for the Constitution. 21,95% of all study respondents indicated a lack of confidence in the government. 10,98 % of all study respondents note that they have increased aggression to politics. 13,01 % of all study respondents indicate that there is more to discuss military and political issues. 11,38 % of all study respondents have avoided the subject of war and militarypolitical events. 17,07 % of all study respondents began to perceive military and political-legal events are more critical with less confidence.
Forging Nationhood: Scottish Imperial Identity and the Construction of Nationhood in the Dominions, 1880–1914
Authors: Spiers Edward M.
Published: May 2018

This chapter demonstrates how, in the Victorian and Edwardian periods, Scots remained highly conspicuous and distinctive in imperialist imagery by virtue of the Highland dress and military music, extensively reported battlefield exploits, the pervasiveness of the ‘martial races’ ideology and the so-called ‘Highlandism’ of Lowland regiments. During the post-1881 era, the sense of Scottish national identity was reinforced by royal patronage in the prefixes of the new regimental titles, in Victoria’s predilection for kilted regiments, and in the ceremonial roles performed by Scottish regiments across the empire. The pervasive use of cultural symbols – kilts, trews, broadswords, and bagpipes - was also important with many of these accoutrements adopted by diasporic units overseas. The British army thereby ensured that Scottish regiments embodied twin identities (Scottish and British), and that their fighting prowess was harnessed to a collective imperial purpose.
‘What Does Poland Want from Me?’ Male Hysteria in Andrzej Wajda’s War Trilogy
Authors: Ostrowska Elżbieta
Published: May 2018

Elżbieta Ostrowska examines Andrzej Wajda’s War Trilogy. She admits that the films need to be located within the vernacular tradition of Romanticism responding to the national trauma, but they also may be located within a broader context of psychoanalysis and universal traumas of modernity. Not only does she suggest necessity of employing these two conceptual frameworks, but she also claims that there is a symbiotic relationship between these two albeit rarely if ever recognised. Using Slavoj Žižek’s concept of ‘hysterical doubt’ and a Polish scholar Michał Paweł Markowski’s discussion of melancholia and hysteria, Ostrowska identifies hysterical subject in Polish Romantic culture emphasizing the uncertainty inscribed in it. She claims that the protagonists of Wajda’s War Trilogy are another embodiments of hysterical male subjects. As hysteria speaks exclusively through the body, the chapter focuses on the haptic potential of the cinematic image as well as specific bodily performances. Ostrowska argues that these excessive bodily spectacles that largely fit clinical descriptions of hysterical symptoms are indeed an attempt to overcome the actual lack of bodily agency and, by extension, male subjectivity. Hysterical body responds to ambiguities and uncertainties regarding vernacular masculine subject.
Temporalities of the Glitch: Déjà Vu
Authors: Cubitt Sean
Published: May 2018

Glitch describes the visual and auditory effects of interruptions of electronic signals. Glitches may be caused by naturally occurring electromagnetic noise, by electromagnetic effects of the technology, or by errors in coding, storage or transmission. Glitches have been treated as noise by engineers, but used by artists to foreground the materiality of the medium in recording, transmission and reception. This chapter investigates these interruptions of image/signal, and the deliberate instigation or emulation of glitch effects in fiction, where typically they work to indicate the diegetic authenticity of fictional media, notably in the trans-temporal transmissions of Déjà Vu (Tony Scott, 2006), which forms the major case study. Foregrounding imperfection and the materiality of media, glitches interrupt the dominant temporal regimes of contemporary media and society.
