Nódulos plantares dolorosos tras ejercicio intenso en paciente pediátrica: un reto diagnóstico
Authors: Sánchez-Bernal Javier , Zárate-Tejero Isabel , Collado-Hernández Pilar , Ara-Martín Mariano , Prieto-Torres Lucía
Published: June 2020

Introducción: La Hidradenitis palmoplantar ecrina idiopática (HPPI) es una dermatosis neutrofílica infrecuente, que cursa con nódulos eritematosos dolorosos de comienzo brusco en regiones plantares o palmoplantares, en niños que no tienen otra enfermedad subyacente.Objetivo: Presentar un caso que ilustra las principales características clínicas e histológicas de la HPPI.Caso Clínico: Niña de 11 años evaluada por nódulos eritematovioláceos dolorosos en planta de pie derecho de 48 horas de evolución y fiebre de hasta 38,2 ºC, sin antecedentes de interés salvo hiperhidrosis y práctica intensa de ejercicio en los días previos. Ante la sospecha clínica de HPPI se realizó biopsia cutánea, que mostró infiltrado inflamatorio neutrofílico alrededor de glándulas sudoríparas ecrinas y abscesos de neutrófilos, confirmando el diagnóstico. Se indicaron antiinflamatorios no esteroidales orales y reposo, con resolución de las lesiones en 7 días.Conclusiones: Este caso demuestra los aspectos más importantes de la HPPI. Esta entidad en muchos casos es infradiagnosticada, dado que puede confundirse con otras patologías que también cursan con nódulos acrales dolorosos, pero tienen distintas implicaciones patogénicas y terapéuticas. Identificar apropiadamente la HPPI permite evitar la alarma innecesaria, tanto en pacientes y sus padres, como en los propios dermatólogos y pediatras.

Published: June 2020

La infección por Mycoplasma pneumoniae (Mypn) podría estar ocurriendo a edades más tempranas, debido a fenómenos sociales como concurrencia a centros de cuidado diurno en forma más frecuente y precoz.Objetivo: estimar la prevalencia de anticuerpos anti-Mypn en niños de 0-12 años, y explorar si la edad, asistencia a centro de cuidados diurnos/escuela, hacinamiento o convivencia con niños incrementan el riesgo de seropositividad.Pacientes y Método: Estudio transversal incluyendo niños de 0-12 años de edad que requirieron extracciones de sangre para control, por lo demás sanos. En todos los casos se consignaron las variables mencionadas y se determinó IgG anti-Mypn mediante enzimoinmunoanálisis. Se evaluó la asociación entre predictores y seropositividad en un modelo de regresión logística.Resultados: Se incluyeron 232 pacientes (edad promedio 56,4 ± 40,0 meses). El 56,9% concurría a centro de cuidado diurno/escuela, 63,8% convivían con menores de 12 años y 15,9% presentaban hacinamiento. El 14,6% presentaba anticuerpos anti-Mypn. Los niños seropositivos no mostraron diferencias significativas con aquellos seronegativos en relación a edad (63,1 ± 40,7 vs. 55,4 ± 41,3 meses), escolaridad (64,7% vs 55,5%), hacinamiento (14,7% vs 14,9%), ni convivencia con menores (64,7% vs 63,6%). La edad tampoco se mostró como predictor independiente de seropositividad en el modelo multivariado.Conclusión: La prevalencia de anticuerpos anti-Mypn fue 14,6%. La edad no fue predictor de seropositividad.

Authors: Donoso F. Alejandro , Arriagada S. Daniela
Published: June 2020

En nuestro país, la enfermedad meningocóccica presenta una baja endemia y alta letalidad, con existencia de brotes epidémicos, algunos de ellos de carácter histórico, como el acaecido durante la primera mitad del siglo pasado. La acción de un grupo de médicos, pioneros en los aspectos clínicos, de investigación y docencia, junto al personal de salud que constituía su equipo, inmersos en una política pública sanitaria exitosa, permitieron consolidar el cuidado necesario del niño enfermo de esta grave patología, como también de muchas otras, posibilitando así el desarrollo de una propuesta estructurada y científica a la luz del conocimiento disponible en aquella época. Por ello, luego de 80 años, es importante revisar los diversos aspectos clínicos, fisiopatológicos y terapéuticos, además del contexto hospitalario y social de esta exitosa historia del sistema de salud público chileno.
Avaliação na aprendizagem da Educação Infantil: Um estudo de caso no Município de Presidente Kennedy-ES
Authors: Gomes Hilda Angélica Lima Fontana , Guisso Luana Frigulha
Published: June 2020

Este artigo tem como objeto a avaliação da aprendizagem na Educação Infantil no município de Presidente Kennedy-ES. Etapa do primeiro contato da criança com o universo escolar, quando ela inicia sua vivência com o conhecimento sistematizado, a Educação Infantil integra a Educação Básica brasileira desde 1996, por determinação da Lei nº 9.394/1996 (Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional – LDB). Nesse contexto, a presente pesquisa entende ser necessário a realização do debate a respeito da avaliação na Educação Infantil, assim como a recuperação de seu sentido pedagógico, enquanto meio de diagnóstico capaz de oferecer subsídios para o desenvolvimento do educando e para a garantia de seus direitos, com a realização da devida intervenção pedagógica quando este desenvolvimento não se dá de modo espontâneo. Com o objetivo geral de compreender a percepção das professoras da Educação Infantil da Rede Municipal de Presidente Kennedy-ES, especialmente as da Pré-escola, sobre os instrumentos avaliativos utilizados para fins de acompanhamento do desenvolvimento do aluno, a pesquisa utilizou uma metodologia baseada na realização de grupo focal e observações diretas in loco das escolas. Como resultado, concluiu-se que as professoras pesquisadas apresentam dificuldades para refletir sobre os instrumentos avaliativos utilizados, o que desestimula a busca pela diversificação e inovação em relação às formas de avaliação na Educação Infantil. Para ajudar a solucionar este problema, a pesquisa propõe a realização de um projeto de formação continuada para que as professoras da Educação Infantil compreendam a importância da avaliação escolar e suas particularidades na Educação Infantil.

Jogos didáticos como auxílio para o ensino-aprendizagem da matemática
Authors: Souza Adriane Oliveira de , Bezerra Cynara Carmo , Silva Clariane Pontes da
Published: June 2020

O objetivo dessa pesquisa é conhecer as principais causas que podem levar o aluno a ter dificuldades em aprender a matemática e procurar, a partir da pesquisa bibliográfica, embasamento para a prática pedagógica, para, assim, trabalhar diferentes jogos e brincadeiras, visando, com isso, a introdução do aprendizado matemático bem como o desenvolvimento do raciocínio lógico-matemático do aluno para possíveis soluções ou amenização do problema. A metodologia de ensino na aprendizagem matemática que conhecemos hoje nas escolas regulares da rede pública de ensino é voltada, diretamente, às aulas expositivas e dialogadas, sem a utilização de recursos necessários para estimular o aluno a se interessar pela disciplina. Durante o período acadêmico, na fase de observação dos alunos na sala de aula, detectou-se a grande carência da aprendizagem, pois a metodologia baseava-se no tradicionalismo. A metodologia se pauta na observação e dialética, na pesquisa bibliográfica e no estudo de caso para esclarecimento da problemática. Os instrumentos de coleta de dados utilizados foram a observação assistemática e participativa e a coletiva intra e extraescolar. Foram registrados os trabalhos na forma de relatórios, e, para isso, foi dado suporte para elaboração e interpretação na etapa da análise de dados. Neste artigo, foram resumidos alguns aspectos importantes da aprendizagem do ensino da matemática. Aqui serão relatadas algumas experiências vividas em sala de aula com a aplicação de jogos didáticos para o ensino da Matemática em uma turma do 7º ano do Ensino Fundamental, na cidade de Parintins/AM, na Escola Estadual Charles Garcia.

Authors: Colangelo Laura
Published: June 2020

L'autrice elabora attraverso la sua esperienza clinica, una linea interpretativa del narcisismo e del Disturbo Narcisistico di Personalità secondo il modello delle polarità semantiche di Ugazio (1998). Sostiene la differenza tra una dimensione narcisistica inerente alla regolazione dell'autostima, ubiquitaria e declinata in modo specifico nelle diverse semantiche familiari e il DNP. Solo in quest'ultimo caso la semantica del potere è rintracciabile come quella critica. L'autrice rintraccia anche alcune costanti caratteristiche del contesto di apprendimento.

Hegel's Revisions of the Logic of Being
Authors: Ferrini Cinzia
Published: June 2020

This essay aims to demonstrate a clear and significant difference, not merely expository revisions or additions, in the logical progression of Being between Hegel's two main versions of the Doctrine of Being (1812-­1817 and 1827-­1830, 1832). This controversial issue is analyzed by retracing and examining changes that international scholarship still widely neglects. Focusing on Hegel's introduction of the doubled transition of Quality and Quantity in the genesis of Measure, the essay argues that the main point of the revisions is that Hegel views the whole determinateness of Being as self-­sublating its own externality, because in one determination of Being passing into another one, the first does not vanish;; instead, both remain within their relational unity. Hegel's new version of the genesis of Measure indicates an essentially qualitative appreciation of the quantitative methods of the empirical sciences. This accords with Hegel's growing acknowledgment in Berlin of the independent cognitive status of the natural sciences in regard to philosophy, and with his reassessment of the relation between intuition, representation and conceptual cognition of the objects of consciousness, to do justice to their real differences and their being for themselves within their own existence.
Financiranje vjerskih zajednica sredstvima državnog proračuna
Authors: Bratić Vjekoslav
Published: June 2020

Katolička crkva u Hrvatskoj financira se iz državnog proračuna temeljem međunarodnih ugovora koje je Republika Hrvatska potpisala sa Svetom Stolicom (tzv. Vatikanski ugovori), a druge vjerske zajednice na temelju Zakona o pravnom položaju vjerskih zajednica, ako su s Republikom Hrvatskom potpisale posebne ugovore o pitanjima od zajedničkog interesa. Osnovni cilj rada je na temelju deskriptivne i komparativne analize javno dostupnih podataka iz 2016. o isplatama iz državnog proračuna, provjeriti pretpostavku da Katolička crkva u Hrvatskoj, u odnosu na druge vjerske zajednice, nominalno, i u odnosu na broj vjernika, dobiva najviše sredstava. Analiza je pokazala da su, iako nominalno najviše sredstava dobije Katolička crkva u Hrvatskoj, po službeno objavljenom broju vjernika najviše sredstava dobile dvije židovske vjerske zajednice (1.792 kn na temelju ugovora o pitanjima od zajedničkog interesa, tj. 5.042 kn ako se pribroje i druga sredstva državnog proračuna), dok je Katolička crkva u Hrvatskoj na temelju Vatikanskih ugovora dobila 182 kn po vjerniku. U narednom bi razdoblju trebalo odgovoriti na otvorena pitanja u pogledu neujednačenosti pravnoga i financijskog statusa vjerskih zajednica, a, u cilju što veće transparentnosti, bilo bi i poželjno podatke o financiranju vjerskih zajednica iz državnog proračuna na godišnjoj razini javno objaviti na jednome mjestu.
Effect of motivation, leadership, and work discipline on employees’ performance (Case study of PT. Injakayu Terpadu, Gunung Putri - Bogor)
Authors: . Hakim , Alhakim Rahmat
Published: June 2020

Motivation, leadership and workplace discipline are three of several factors that are regarded to have relatively great influence on the performance of employees of PT Integrated Injakayu Terpadu, Gunung Putri Bogor. To investigate the effect, the present research aimed to determine the influence of motivation, leadership and working discipline on the performance of the employees of the company. The study was conducted by taking 70 employees as a research sample which was an proportional to a total population of 230 employees. Data were collected using a closed questionnaire instrument with six rating scales ranging from very poor/low to very good/excellent. This quantitative study was conducted by describing research data and conducting analysis on the inference. Multiple linear regression analysis and multiple determination coefficients were used for analysis while hypothesis testing was done by the F-test and t-test. This study produces a robust model which shows the influence of motivation, leadership and workplace discipline on employee performance indicated by the multiple linear regression equation Ŷ = 0.167 + 0.940X1 + 0.008X2 + 0.035X3. The correlation coefficient is R = 0.957 which shows that motivation, leadership and work discipline are strongly related to the employee’s performance. Adjusted R2 value = 0.912 shows that motivation, leadership and workplace discipline in the model are simultaneously able to explain 91.2% employee performance variable of PT Injakayu Terpadu, Gunung Putri Bogor, while 8.8% other variable explained not examined in this study. The three main findings revealed in this study are consistent with the proposed hypotheses, i.e. motivation has a positive and significant effect on employee performance, leadership has no effect on employee performance, and workplace discipline does not affect employee performance. Keywords: Motivation, Leadership, Workplace Discipline, and Performance

Rapid economy development in Indonesia has created tight competitive business. Business people have to try very hard to make their business exist, they are obliged to be able to deal with competitive business keeping the consumers to be loyal. Because consumers are the most important asset for a company. And a company will jeopardize its business if it does not have any consumers. The way how to keep the consumers loyal to the company is thru Brand Image and After Sales Service. This research aims to figure out the extent to which Brand Image and After Sales Service have affected Consumer Loyalty. And Objects of this research are furniture consumers at PT Informa Bogor. Data analysis has applied multiple linear regression analysis, determinant coefficient, F test and T test to test the hypotheses. The result of F test has identified Brand Image and After Sales Service affecting significantly Consumer Loyalty. Partial test has identified independent variables partially affecting significantly Consumer Loyalty. Nevertheless, the contribution of independent variable to the increasing Consumer Loyalty is quite small which is 36.5 %, and the rest has been affected by other factors which are not studied in this research.

I have benefitted immensely from this linguistic heritage as I am quite adept at learning languages and speak several fluently.
Utopia’s Moorish Inspiration: Thomas More’s Reading of Ibn Ṭufayl
Authors: Regnier Daniel
Published: June 2020

A promising but neglected precedent for Thomas More’s Utopia is to be found in Ibn Ṭufayl’s Ibn Ḥayy Yaqẓān. This twelfth-century Andalusian philosophical novel describing the self-education and enlightenment of a feral child on an island, while certainly a precedent for the European Bildungsroman, also arguably qualifies as a utopian text. It is possible that More had access to Pico de la Mirandola’s Latin translation of Ibn Ḥayy Yaqẓān. This study consists of a review of historical and philological evidence that More may have read Ibn Ḥayy Yaqẓān and a comparative reading of More’s and Ṭufayl’s two famous works. I argue that there are good reasons to see in Ibn Ḥayy Yaqẓān a source for More’s Utopia and that in certain respects we can read More’s Utopia as a response to Ṭufayl’s novel.

L’Ibn Ḥayy Yaqẓān d’Ibn Ṭufayl consiste en un précédent incontournable mais négligé à l’Utopie de More. Ce récit philosophique andalou du douzième siècle décrivant l’auto-formation et l’éveil d’un enfant sauvage sur une île peut être considéré comme un texte utopique, bien qu’il soit certainement un précédent pour le Bildungsroman européen. Thomas More pourrait avoir lu l’Ibn Ḥayy Yaqẓān, puisqu’il a pu avoir accès à la traduction latine qu’en a fait Pic de la Miradolle. Cette étude examine les données historiques et philologiques permettant de poser que More a probablement lu cet ouvrage, et propose une lecture comparée de l’Ibn Ḥayy Yaqẓān et de l’Utopie de More. On y avance qu’il y a non seulement de bonnes raisons de considérer l’Ibn Ḥayy Yaqẓān d’Ibn Ṭufayl comme une source de l’Utopie de More, mais qu’il est aussi possible à certains égards de lire l’Utopie comme une réponse à l’Ibn Ḥayy Yaqẓān.
More, Huxley, Eggers, and the Utopian/Dystopian Tradition
Authors: Herman Peter C.
Published: June 2020

From its inception in Plato’s Republic and revival in Thomas More’s Utopia, the concept of a perfect (or as More originally put it in a qualification often lost, “best”) form of a republic has been dogged by the spectres of hypocrisy, contradiction, and authoritarianism. However, the matter is more complicated than a simple declaration that utopias provide a vehicle for totalitarian fantasy, that totalitarian governments inevitably portray themselves as creating a utopia. While today’s readers, at a comfortable distance from the early sixteenth century, may bridle at the lack of privacy, or at the ideological coerciveness in More’s Utopia, that does not eradicate how, in Walter Kendrick’s words, “what for us are problems are for them solutions.” It can be argued that the negative elements are a response to social ills. The same goes for Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World and Dave Eggers’s The Circle. While the negatives in all three fictions undermine or put into question the positives, our realization that the authors also intended the negatives as genuine attempts at resolving genuine problems that cause untold misery invites us to complicate our judgments. The undermining is itself undermined.

L’idée d’un gouvernement parfait (ou « meilleur » pour reprendre l’expression même de More), de son apparition dans la République de Platon jusqu’à son renouveau dans l’Utopie de Thomas More, a été traquée et mise à profit par les partisans de l’hypocrisie, de la contradiction et de l’autoritarisme. Toutefois, la question est plus complexe que la simple affirmation qui voudrait que les utopies favorisent les phantasmes totalitaires, ou que les gouvernements totalitaires se présentent inévitablement comme la réalisation d’une utopie. Ces éléments négatifs répondent en fait souvent à de véritables problèmes sociaux, et, bien que le lecteur d’aujourd’hui, dans la confortable distance qui le sépare du début du XVIe siècle, puisse s’indigner du manque de vie privée et de l’intransigeance idéologique de l’Utopie de More, cela ne change pas le fait que, pour emprunter la formule de Walter Kendrick, « ce qui pour nous sont des problèmes, sont pour eux des solutions ». Il en va de même pour le Brave New World de Aldous Huxley et The Circle de Daver Egger. Alors que les aspects négatifs dans ces trois fictions compromettent leurs aspects positifs, le fait de reconnaître que ces auteurs, par ces moyens discutables, ont sincèrement tenté de régler de vrais problèmes entraînant des misères infinies, amène le lecteur d’aujourd’hui à nuancer ses jugements. Et ainsi, les aspects compromettants de ces oeuvres sont eux-mêmes remis en question.
Becoming “Indians”: The Jesuit Missionary Path from Italy to Asia
Authors: Russell Camilla
Published: June 2020

The Jesuit missions in Asia were among the most audacious undertakings by Europeans in the early modern period. This article focuses on a still relatively little understood aspect of the enterprise: its appointment process. It draws together disparate archival documents to recreate the steps to becoming a Jesuit missionary, specifically the Litterae indipetae (petitions for the “Indies”), provincial reports about missionary candidates, and replies to applicants from the Jesuit superior general. Focusing on candidates from the Italian provinces of the Society of Jesus, the article outlines not just how Jesuit missionaries were appointed but also the priorities, motivations, and attitudes that informed their assessment and selection. Missionaries were made, the study shows, through a specific “way of proceeding” that was negotiated between all parties and seen in both organizational and spiritual terms, beginning with the vocation itself, which, whether the applicant departed or not, earned him the name indiano.
Paisagem infinita: do engenho de açúcar aos bens culturais
Authors: De Araújo Saulo di Tarso Begliomini
Published: June 2020

O presente artigo investiga a formação de uma nova paisagem cultural que emerge com o declínio da economia cafeeira e a ascensão da cana-de-açúcar no nordeste do estado de São Paulo, refletindo sobre as relações entre a paisagem cultural pernambucana e paulista. A pesquisa tem como foco e objeto de estudo o Engenho Central, inaugurado em 1906 na região de Ribeirão Preto, hoje, Museu da Cana. Traçando um panorama histórico, artístico e cultural do Brasil, busca-se compreender as transformações e os novos valores culturais que surgem desse processo, evidenciando o entrelaçamento entre arte e pioneirismo econômico. A história da criação do Museu da Cana cruzou os caminhos dos maiores pioneiros modernos brasileiros em matéria de arte e cultura, como Aloisio Magalhães, Acácio e Janete Borsoi, Clarival do Prado Valadares, Cicero Dias, Burle Marx, Alexandre Wollner. Por fim, o artigo analisa o papel e a importância estratégica da economia empresarial aliada à arte, design e os museus, da memória, da economia da cultura, do capital cultural e dos bens culturais para a emancipação social, científico-tecnológica, econômica, bem como para um desenvolvimento autônomo do país.
Relação entre Política urbana e habitacional: instrumentos urbanísticos em apoio ao provimento da habitação social sustentável
Authors: Mello Cristina Maria Correia de , Bezerra Maria do Carmo de Lima
Published: June 2020

O acesso a habitação é condição básica para a conquista do direito à cidade sustentável estando disposto no Estatuto da Cidade, norma balizadora dos Planos Diretores Urbanos no país. O tema tem ocupado pouco espaço na literatura urbanística sobre sustentabilidade dando a entender que o provimento de moradia, seja em que condição ocorra, já atenderia a necessidade habitacional da cidade sustentável. Essa visão não é verdadeira, como demonstra a recente experiência de programas habitacionais brasileiros que potencializaram a exclusão espacial das cidades com todos os custos socioambientais decorrentes. O estudo parte da recorrência sobre conceitos que definem as características das cidades sustentáveis e dos fundamentos dos instrumentos urbanísticos para identificar suas correlações de modo a propiciar condições como: uso e ocupação do solo misto, diversidade social com diferentes perfis de famílias, acesso aos serviços e equipamentos urbanos, atributos da atividade de morar de modo sustentável. Quanto aos instrumentos urbanísticos se destacou que aqueles que melhor podem apoiar essas características urbanas são: Zonas Especiais de Interesse Social - ZEIS de vazio; Operações Urbanas Consorciadas - OUC e Outorga Onerosa do Direito de Construir – OODC. Para verificar sua efetividade foram estudados os casos de ZEIS de vazio no Distrito Federal-DF, OUC no município de São Paulo. e OODC em Palmas.

Published: June 2020

O gerenciamento integrado da água, com premissas baseadas na Sócio-hidrologia, direciona os sistemas socioecológicos à sustentabilidade. O presente artigo apresenta um Mapa Conceitual para compreensão de evoluções conceituais relativas à segurança e à vulnerabilidade hídrica na perspectiva da Sustentabilidade Global. Para isso, realizou-se uma revisão abrangente da literatura para o desenvolvimento de uma estrutura teórica que relaciona conceitos-chaves fundamentais para a análise e discussão interdisciplinar do gerenciamento sustentável da água. Observa-se que existem evoluções conceituais no campo dos recursos hídricos que passaram a contemplar abordagens interdisciplinares que, por muito tempo, foram negligenciadas. O Mapa Conceitual mostra ainda que há múltiplos focos na definição e no estudo da Segurança Hídrica, de modo que esta pesquisa manteve o foco na Vulnerabilidade e na Sustentabilidade, entendendo que estes são elementos relevantes para consolidar a prática da Gestão Integrada de Recursos Hídricos em prol da garantia da Segurança Hídrica.
A mídia impressa e a construção narrativa sobre a AIDS no Brasil no final do século XX: Uma relação perigosa
Authors: Silva Fábio Ronaldo , Guedes Raquel da Silva
Published: June 2020

O Brasil é caracterizado como um país de ampla diversidade e com uma população heterogênea. Diariamente, as pessoas tidas como diferentes são desrespeitadas em casa, no trabalho, nas escolas, nos espaços de sociabilidade e, nos últimos anos, pelo governo federal. No dia 05 de fevereiro de 2020 a falta de empatia foi com portadores do vírus HIV, tidos meramente como despesa para a sociedade e para o governo. O discurso não só desrespeitou os Direitos Humanos e dos Cidadãos como reforçou uma construção discursiva implantada no início da década de 1980, onde associava-se os infectados a doentes e a enfermidade a homossexualidade. Essas notícias eram veiculadas pela grande mídia do país e construíam uma identidade errônea da doença, causavam a desinformação e, principalmente, disseminavam o preconceito, as diferenças e a morte através de suicídios. Faremos, dessa forma, uma análise das reportagens que veicularam notícias sobre o HIV e a AIDS em revistas de circulação nacional, pontuando a construção discursiva problemática que ocasionou a construção das diferenças e impulsionou o preconceito para com os soropositivos comparando ao pensamento atual repercutido pelas autoridades do governo.

This study aims to assess the concentration of particulate matter (PM) with an aerodynamic diameter ≤2.5 μm (PM2.5) and its relationship with meteorological parameters in highly polluted Dhaka city. Data for PM2.5 has been collected from the Air Now Department of State (AirNow DOS) and meteorological data from Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD). Study observed that 31.9% of hourly Air Quality Index (AQI) category was unhealthy while the percentage of ‘Good’ was very few. The maximum monthly average concentration was found to be 192.97±89.30 μg/m3 in the month of January while minimum average concentration was 29.98±19.37 μg/m3 in July. Besides, it also found that winter season had highest PM2.5concentration among all seasons. Moreover, the annual concentration was found to be 79.94±75.55 μg/m3 in 2017 which exceeded the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) and World Health Organization (WHO) standard. A number of meteorological factors are affecting to this variation. It is also found that rainfall is negatively strong and significantly correlated with the concentration of PM2.5, due to ambient dust are being settle down in the lithosphere. Annual concentration of PM2.5 was 5 times higher than standard level.

PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) in atmosphere are amongst the hazardous identified organic pollutants. The present study was conducted on the determination of PAHs concentrations in the air of Data Darbar Chowk, Lahore, Pakistan. The particulate matters in the atmosphere were collected using high volume samplers. Average Total Particulate Matter (mg) of PM2.5was 20.96 and PM10was 188.7. The concentration of PM2.5was 698.81 ngm-3/hr and 16771 ngm-3/day while concentration of PM10was 6290 ngm-3/hr and 150960 ngm-3/day. Quantification of different PAHs and related compounds was done by using Gas Chromatography. The mean total quantity of PAH in air was 955.588 ngm-3. The mean concentration of dibenzo (a, h) anthracene was highest i.e. 161.33 ngm-3with 13.94 ngm-3 Minimum and 308.72 ngm-3Maximum, concentrations. PAHs concentration was found to be very high in current research. There should be proper control through air management system to tackle with harmfulness of health hazardous organic pollutants.

North Papua Basin is a fore arc basin located in northern coastal of Papua Island. This basin filled by Middle-Upper Miocene turbidite sediment and overlied by Upper Miocene – Quarternary clastic sediment. Upper Miocene – Quaternary clastic sediments (Mamberamo Formation) composed by interbedding conglomerate, sandstone and shale as molasses deposit. A detailed stratigraphic study was performed to identify facies and its association of the Mamberamo Formation to that give a new perspective on the characteristics and development of facies succession of Lower Mamberamo Formation. Result  shows that the Lower Mamberamo Formation consists of three facies: A) cross bedding sandstone (subtidal), B) heterolothic silty shale (intra-tidal), C) carbonaceous shale (supra-tidal) deposited on Late Miocen to Plio-Pleistocene during centra range orogeny (syn-orogeny) as molasses deposits.Keywords: Fore arc basin, North Papua Basin, Mamberamo Formation, molasse deposits.
Ultrasound Viewers’ Attribution of Moral Status to Fetal Humans: A Case for Presumptive Rationality
Authors: Giebel Heidi M.
Published: June 2020

As several studies, along with a book and movie depicting the true story of a former clinic director, have recently brought to the public’s attention, fetal ultrasound images dramatically impact some viewers’ normative judgments: a small but non-negligible proportion of viewers attribute increased moral status to fetal humans and even form the belief that abortion is impermissible. I consider three types of psychological explanation for a viewer’s shift in beliefs: (1) increased bonding or empathy, (2) various forms of cognitive bias, and (3) type of cognitive processing involved. I consider the normative implications of each explanation, arguing that in each case the viewer’s judgment is presumptively rational.

Background and Objectives For maxillary sinus diseases, it is not easily determined whether it is of the sinus or dental origin as the root of a tooth is located in the maxillary sinus; hence the need to find the pathologic origin for better clinical results. The purpose of this study was to define the characteristics of patients who had needed to consult both a dentist and an otolaryngologist with respect to the diagnosis and management.Subjects and Method Thirty-one patients who visited the department of dentistry and ENT between 2014 and 2018 were included in the study. Patients with dental implant sinusitis were excluded. We restrospectively reviewed the medical records for chief complaints, assessment, diagnose, treatment, and prognosis of the patients.Results Of 31 patients, 13 patients were diagnosed with odontogenic rhinosinusitis (ORS), 5 with postoperative cheek cyst (POCC), 2 with radicular cyst without ORS, 7 with sinusitis, and 4 with other diseases. Thirteen patients underwent combined operation and 5 at each department. Follow-up periods was about 6.5 months. There was no disease recurrence except one patients with POCC.Conclusion There needs to be an active consultation with the dentistry department in case of unilateral sinusitis and past history of dental treatment temporally or when patients show positive findings in CT.

A cyst in the accessory parotid gland (APG) is extremely rare, with only three cases having been reported recently in English literature. They were all treated with sclerotherapy, where a cyst may appear as a painless superficial mass in the mid-cheek area. In sclerotherapy, the most commonly used materials are ethanol and OK-432, which report good therapeutic results for the treatment of benign cervical cystic mass. An 85-year-old man came to our clinic with superficial, well-margined ovoid mass on the left cheek. The mass was diagnosed as a benign cyst in APG through imaging studies and core needle biopsy. We performed the ultrasoundguided percutaneous ethanol injection and the cyst disappeared, leaving only the fused cystic wall. We report this very rare and interesting case with a literature review.
Recent Advances in Three-Dimensional Multicellular Spheroid Formation for Biomedical Research
Authors: Park Jae Hong
Published: June 2020

Multicellular spheroids (MCSs) from three dimensional culture, which is a complex architectural structure with dynamic cell to cell and cell to matrix interactions, mimic real tissues regarding structural and functional properties. MCSs have emerged as an effective tool for filling up the gap between the in vitro and in vivo experimental model and can replace the in vivo model. The viability and functional performance can be enhanced when cells are grown as multicellular spheroid (MCS). In this review paper, we discussed the basic mechanism of MCS formation, their biomedical applications, and recent advances in MCS culture and tissue engineering.
Relating groundfish diversity and biomass to deepsea corals and sponges using trawl survey catch data

Published: June 2020

Deep-sea corals and sponges (DSCS) inhabit the world’s oceans and are often associated with high fish abundance. However, the precise nature and extent of any association is difficult to quantify and remains poorly understood. We investigated associations between DSCS and demersal fish using data from the Northwest Fisheries Science Center’s bottom trawl survey (2003-2015). General linear mixed models showed that average species density of groundfish was slightly higher and groundfish biomass slightly lower in tows with DSCS. Multivariate analyses were used to examine relationships among fish community structure, DSCS biomass, and environmental parameters (depth, latitude, bottom temperature). No strong correlations occurred between the community structure of groundfish and DSCS biomass; instead, bottom temperature and depth were the primary drivers of community composition. However, indicator species analysis also showed various species-specific associations with DSCS. Specifically, some flatfish species exhibited relationships with coral and sea pen biomass, whereas some rockfishes were associated with high sponge biomass. Our results provide information on the broad-scale associations among DSCS and demersal fishes that may be useful for developing studies focused on the functional value of DSCS as essential fish habitat and the role they play in groundfish life history and ecology.
The economics of transformation toward sustainable hill country land use: Whatawhata case study

Abstract The Whatawhata integrated catchment management project generated a substantial amount of data on the biophysical impacts of land use and management change - livestock enterprise performance, terrestrial biodiversity, water quality etc. The question has been posed: What was the impact of the changes on the financial viability of the catchment farm system? Farm operating budgets before and after land use changes, enterprise gross margins, costs associated with tree planting, and farm system modelling with FarmaxPro® have been integrated to give a whole-system view of farm business viability over the long term (1995-2030). This information compared the existing system (1990s) with the new system implemented in 2000. Annual operating profit for the 296 ha breeding ewe and breeding cow system in the late 1990s was between $25 000-$30 000 reflecting the size and land use capability distribution of the block. Changes to the livestock enterprises improved farm surplus from ca. $100/ha to ca. $330/ha in the first 3 years, but on a reduced pastoral land area (150 ha). This gave an annual operating profit (EFS) of ca. $50 000. Much of this difference reflected product price movements. The cost of land use change was approximately $969 000 over the first 10 years. Selective intensification of hill lands can improve per ha profitability in the short-medium term. Two key financial issues, the transformation cost and medium term viability, need to be addressed in implementing land use change to move toward hill land sustainability.

Effects of fertiliser nitrogen management on nitrate leaching risk from grazed dairy pasture
Authors: Vogeler Iris , Shepherd Mark , Lucci Gina
Published: June 2020

Abstract Dairy farms are under pressure to increase productivity while reducing environmental impacts. Effective fertiliser management practices are critical to achieve this. We investigated the effects of N fertiliser management on pasture production and modelled N losses, either via direct leaching of fertiliser N, or indirectly through N uptake and subsequent excretion via dairy cow grazing. The Agricultural Production Systems Simulator (APSIM) was first tested with experimental data from fertiliser response experiments conducted on a well-drained soil in the Waikato region of New Zealand. The model was then used in a 20- year simulation to investigate the effect of fertiliser management on pasture response and the impacts on potential leaching losses. The risk of direct leaching from applied fertiliser was generally low, but at an annual rate of 220 kg N/ha exceeded that from urine patches in one out of 10 years. The main effect of N fertiliser on leaching risk was indirect via the urine patch by providing higher pasture yields and N concentrations. Best management practices could include identification of high risk periods based on environmental conditions (e.g. soil moisture, plant growth), avoidance of fertiliser applications in these periods and the use of duration controlled grazing (DCG) to prevent excreta deposition onto the grazing area during critical times.

Published: June 2020

Abstract Carbon dioxide (CO2) levels are increasing globally and affect plant growth and development. Time to flowering, commonly referred to as heading date, has been identified as a key indicator of the quality and nutritional value of ryegrass. Recent research on annual grasses indicates that elevated CO2 levels can delay heading date, however significant data for perennial ryegrass is lacking. We exposed currently available ryegrass cultivars to the CO2 concentration expected in 2050 (500 ppm) and found significant changes in heading date with delays and advances of up to 10 days. Over all the cultivars the breadth of heading date was more than doubled, offering potentially new possibilities for cultivar choice for specific environments and systems.
