A Cultural Linguistics Perspective on Animal Proverbs, with Special Reference to Two Dialects of Arabic
Authors: Salamh Sami Ben , Maalej Zouheir A.
Published: July 2019

This article aims to study animal proverbs in Saudi Arabic (SA) and Tunisian Arabic (TA). The article is grounded in cultural linguistics, which is a composite framework from cognitive linguistics, Boasian linguistics, ethnosemantics, and the ethnography of speaking. It has adopted a cultural linguistic approach to proverbial discourse. For that reason, possible specific scenes for the generic scenes of the analyzed proverbs are spelled out by proverbial discourses throughout the article. The findings show that proverbs work in the sociocultural environment as proverbial discourse, necessitating a specific scene onto which a generic scene is mapped. The findings also show that the two sub-cultures share very few generic scenes, drawing on different animals and cultural knowledge associated with them. The article also highlights the significance of the socio-physical environment and sub-cultural heritage subsuming the SA and TA linguistic and religious sub-cultures. The findings of the article show that SA and TA may use the same animal names but with a different focus.
Knowledge Re-production and Transfer: Translating Practice into Theory
Authors: Alaoui Ahmed
Published: July 2019

This paper argues that cross-fertilization among translation academic researchers, practitioners and trainers is needed for all the actors involved in the translation enterprise. It calls for a practice-based research model to materialize the mechanisms needed for the interaction and collaboration of the three stakeholders, which would have positive impacts on the translation landscape. Given that this cross-fertilization can only be beneficial if it is structured and sustained, then it has to be formalized and institutionalized. A plan will be proposed as to how this can be materialized. It is a thesis of this paper that professional practice needs academic research (theories) to shape it, and theory can only have functional dimensions through professional practice; therefore, there is a pressing need to bridge the gap between “knowing” and “doing” in translation. To the extent that this position is valid the university is invited to play a leading role in materializing this objective, with a view to shaping the future of the translation profession and preserving translation education in Arab universities.
Short Critical Note on Water Wealth of Nepal
Authors: Pokharel Govinda Sharma
Published: July 2019

The message that Nepal is rich in water resources has been spread in Nepal since a long time. If one looks at the total quantum of water that flows out of Nepal in one year, the above message sounds valid but as the flow of water is not under anybody’s control and flow occurs under gravity as it precipitates or exits the water springs, it should be considered in two dimensions: volume and time. In my opinion, Nepal is water stressed most of the time of year: flood stressed during the monsoon and drought stressed during the rest of the year. Nepal is rich in ice-mass, which is depleting at an alarming rate due to global warming giving rise to formation and increase in volume of glacial lakes that increases the vulnerability and risks to the economic activities along the river basins. Similarly, Nepal is rich ing round water resource with the total annual replenish able reserve of about 12 BCM mostly located in the Terai plains. The most debatable is the surface water that mostly falls as rain during the monsoon and cascades down crossing into India, is often devastating, as it passes. Nepal’s water resource is generally related to its hydropower potential calculated as 83,000MW by Dr. Hari Man Shrestha back in the sixties. Hydropower potential is a number that is based on the energy potential and the market, therefore, it is changing from time to time due to change in demand pattern and the market rates. Myopic view of looking at the Himalayan waters relating it to energy production as the energy production (TAF-June 2018) comprises a meager percentage of total benefit which lies mostly on multiple use of water directed towards the following two aspects: (1)Reduction in the losses of life and property due to floods and unwanted mountain phenomenon, mostly flood related disaster risk reduction, and (2) Flood Water management for converting the curse of floods into assets by way of its multiple uses, both consumptive as well as non-consumptive including food revolution, navigation, fishery, water supply, replenishment of ground water, energy production and recreation.
Geology and mineral resources of Khudi-Bahundanda area of west-central Nepal along Marshyangdi Valley

Published: July 2019

Geological study was carried out along the Khudi-Bahundanda area of the Marshyangdi Valley in the west central Nepal. The area lies partly in the Main Central Thrust (MCT) zone and partly in the Higher Himalayan Crystalline Zone. The aim of the study was to prepare a detail geological map and cross section in the scale of 1:25,000 to work out on stratigraphy, metamorphism and mineral resource potential of the area. The rocks of the Higher Himalaya have been mapped under a single unit as Formation I. This unit consists of kyanite-garnet para-gneiss. The lithological units of the MCT zone are mapped into three units as the Benighat Slate, the Malekhu Formation and the Robang Formation from the bottom to the top, respectively. The Benighat Slate consists of dark grey to black schist with some carbonate beds as members. The Malekhu Formation consists of creamy white siliceous dolomite marble with parting of schist. The Robang Formation comprises of light grey psammitic schist with garnet and white micaceous quartzite in various proportion.

Many secondary structures are observed in the study area, but primary structures are missing due to extreme metamorphism. The large-scale structures are the MCT, which separates the Lesser Himalayan rocks to the south from the Higher Himalaya to the north, and the Bahundanda Thrust (BT). Numerous outcrop-scale structures like meso-scale folds, quartz veins, boudinage and ptygmatic folds are abundant. Folds in the MCT zone are mostly E-W trending, and rocks have experienced multiple metamorphism and dynamic crystallization of minerals. The Lesser Himalayan rocks resemble the garnet zone while the Higher Himalayan rocks resemble to the kyanite grade of metamorphism. As in the other sections of the Himalaya, the present section also clearly shows the inverted metamorphism in the MCT zone. The MCT zone is considered as the potential site for precious and semi-precious stones, of which the most potential ones are the garnet and kyanite.

Published: July 2019

Geological mapping was carried out along the Marsyangdi Valley in the Khudi-Bahundanda area of west-central Nepal covering the Main Central Thrust (MCT) zone. The main objectives of the study were to draw a clear picture of lithology, geological structures and micro-tectonics in the rocks. A detail survey on stratigraphy and correlation with central Nepal reveals geological rock units such as the Benighat Slate, the Malekhu Formation and the Robang Formation of the Lesser Himalaya and the Formation I of the Higher Himalaya. Both regional and small-scale geological structures have been studied. The MCT zone has been mapped as a major regional structure in the region. The Bahundanda Thrust (BT), which has brought the older Malekhu Formation over the younger Robang Formation, is an another significant structure mapped. The BT is marked on the basis of fault breccia, slickensides as well as large deposits of debris mass at the fault zone.

The study area has undergone poly-metamorphism and dynamic crystallization of minerals. The Lesser Himalayan rocks resemble the garnet zone while the Higher Himalaya rocks resemble to the kyanite grade of metamorphism. The present section clearly shows the inverted metamorphism in the MCT zone as in the other sections of the Himalaya. Microscopic features like ribbon-quartz, polygonization of quartz crystals, grain boundary reduction, mica-fish and rotated garnet grains indicates the ductile shearing in the MCT zone suggesting the dynamic recrystallization during thrust propagation. Numerous outcrop-scale structures like meso-scalefolds, quartz veins, boudinage and ptygmatic folds are abundant folds in the MCT zone and these are mostly E-W trending.
Nepal, a multi-hazard risk country: Spatio-temporal analysis
Authors: Jimee Ganesh Kumar , Meguro Kimiro , Dixit Amod Mani
Published: July 2019

Nepal, though covers small area of the earth, exposes complex geology with active tectonic processes, high peaks, sloppy terrain and climatic variation. Combination of such geo-physical and climatic conditions with existing poor socio-economic conditions, unplanned settlements, rapidly increasing population and low level of awareness has put the country in highest risk to multi-hazard events. Fires, floods, landslides and epidemics are the most frequent hazard events, which have cumulatively caused a significant loss of lives and property every year. However, due to diversity in physiographic, climatic and socio-economic conditions within the country, the type, frequency and degree of the impact of such events differs in different places. During the period of 46 years (1971-2016), an average of 2 events have been occurred causing 3 deaths/missing every day. Disaster events occurred most frequently during the months of April, July and August, while relatively lesser number of events have been reported during January, November and December. However, earthquakes have been reported in different months, regardless with the season.

This paper is an effort to analyse the spatial distribution and temporal variation of disaster events in Nepal. Further it has drawn a trend of disasters occurrence in Nepal, which will help the decision makers and other stakeholders for formulating Disaster Risk Management (DRM) plan and policies on one hand and heighten citizens’ awareness of against disasters on the other.

Published: July 2019

The dam site of proposed Sunkoshi-2 Hydropower Project and its surrounding mainly comprise the Tawa Khola Formation, which is the basal formation of the Bhimphedi Group. Although garnet schist and micaceous quartzite bands are the main rock types; three rock units namely- Schist Unit, Quartzite Unit, and Gneiss Unit were identified. Engineering geological mapping followed by discontinuity survey were carried out. The result exhibited differences in fracture intensity and discontinuity characteristics of rock masses according to rock type. Since joint orientations were found to be consistent over fairly large areas, surface studies of joints were used in predicting subsurface orientations. Rock mass classification was made in line with the Rock Mass Rating System (RMR) and the Dam Mass Rating (DMR) classification for the dam foundation. The rock masses were classified onto fair to good rock classes according to RMR value. Dam foundation analysis regarding stability against sliding using DMR classification helped in selection of suitable dam-axis among two alternatives. Water Quality Standards (2005).
Ratings of Affective and Non-Affective Aspects of German Idioms in Second Language Processing
Authors: Petrič Teodor
Published: July 2019

AbstractIn this paper psycholinguistic and emotional properties of 619 German idiomatic expressions are explored. The list of idiomatic expressions has been adapted from Citron et al. (2015), who have used it with German native speakers. In our study the same idioms were evaluated by Slovene learners of German as a foreign language. Our participants rated each idiom for emotional valence, emotional arousal, familiarity, concreteness, ambiguity (literality), semantic transparency and figurativeness. They also had the task to describe the meaning of the German idioms and to rate their confidence about the attributed meaning. The aims of our study were (1) to provide descriptive norms for psycholinguistic and affective properties of a large set of idioms in German as a second language, (2) to explore the relationships between psycholinguistic and affective properties of idioms in German as a second language, and (3) to compare the ratings of the German native speakers studied in Citron et al. (2015) with the ratings of the Slovene second language learners from our study. On one hand, the results of the Slovene participants show many similarities with those of of the German native speakers, on the other hand, they show a slight positivity bias and slightly shallower emotional processing of the German idioms. Our study provides data that could be useful for future studies investigating the role of affect in figurative language in a second language setting (methodology, translation science, language technology).
Fitodiversidade em Timor-Leste: lista de plantas medicinais associadas a práticas tradicionais
Authors: Casquilho José Pinto , Xavier José Sabino
Published: July 2019

Neste trabalho apresenta-se um conjunto de cerca de 130 espécies vegetais que se podem considerar associadas a práticas fitoterapêuticas tradicionais em Timor-Leste. As práticas tradicionais, para além da respetiva injunção pragmática e vínculo associativo, enraízam no conceito relativo à palavra tétum lulik – significando, em geral, sagrado ou santo – que, na região das ilhas próximas da Indonésia tem expressão no termo adat ou tradição, e que ainda se pode relacionar com o conceito de tabu, dominante na Polinésia. As plantas são utilizadas pelos curandeiros matan-dook, em receitas simples ou compostas, incluindo a prescrição de mantras e orações. O conjunto de espécies aqui apresentadas, resultando de uma compilação de trabalhos previamente elaborados bem como de uma inquirição verbal a 45 curandeiros nas cidades de Díli e Baucau, constitui uma base de trabalho onde se visa identificar mais aturadamente componentes e processos fitoterapêuticos em Timor-Leste, bem como a sua contribuição para a problemática mais geral da conservação da biodiversidade e da identidade cultural no jovem país do sudeste asiático, considerado por vários autores como inserido num “hotspot” de biodiversidade.

Published: July 2019

O objectivo deste trabalho foi analisar a diversidade da entomofauna encontrada em pomar de árvores frutíferas em função de diferentes técnicas de amostragem, no Sul do Brasil. Foram utilizadas três técnicas para amostragem: caça-mosca, técnica da bandeja colorida e armadilhas do tipo pitfall, em frutíferas de: Citrus sinensis, Ficus carica e Rubus fruticosus. Foi registrada uma abundância total de 12.943 indivíduos, distribuídos em nove ordens e 46 famílias. As ordens com maior abundância foram Diptera (60,07%), Coleoptera (31,07%) e Hymenoptera (7,47%). Considerando os índices de diversidade em função das armadilhas, houve maior diversidade nas bandejas (H= 0,9454) do que na pitfall (H=0,7788) e armadilha caça-mosca (H=0,6306). Tal facto ocorreu, possivelmente, em função uma menor dominância das distintas ordens nas bandejas. Cada método considera um comportamento dos insectos, seja alimentar ou de locomoção, e se complementam para um levantamento que se aproxime do real em pomar de frutíferas.
The Glorious Excess of Peace in Marsilius of Padua's Defensor Pacis
Authors: Lee Jr. Richard A.
Published: July 2019

In Defensor Pacis Marsilius of Padua grounds the legitimacy of the kingdom, or the state (civitas), on the peace that rule provides the citizens. Looking at Aristotle’s claim that the civitas strives to be like an animal in which all parts in the right proportion for the sake of health, Marsilius argues that ‘the parts of the kingdom or state will be well disposed for the sake of peace [tranquilitas].’ Marsilius goes on to define peace as the agreeable ‘belonging together’ of all members of the kingdom or the state. In this way, Marsilius moves away from a theological ground of the legitimacy of the state towards one that is entirely secular. However, the ground is an unstable one in that it acknowledges the fact that the ‘members’ of the body politic are characterised by difference. As such, the ground of legitimate authority will be characterised as much by force as by peace or by the relation of force to peace.
Who Were the Faithful?
Authors: Benjamin Andrew
Published: July 2019

The aim of this paper, which more generally is a contribution to political theology, is to show in what way the conception of peace in Nicholas of Cusa’s De Pace Fidei is dependent upon a specific philosophical anthropology. Within it any link between human being and law is replaced by the subject of faith. Central to the argument is demonstrating the ways in which this anthropological position is necessarily interarticulated with the larger metaphysical positions that are advanced across a range of Cusanus’ texts.
Сучасні підходи до призначення радіойод-діагностики та радіойод-терапії хворим, прооперованим із приводу папілярної карциноми щитоподібної залози
Authors: Guda B.B. , Gulevaty S.V. , Tronko M.D.
Published: July 2019

Мета — обґрунтувати доцільність призначення радіойод-діагностики та радіойод-абляції пацієнтам із папілярними карциномами щитоподібної залози (ЩЗ) із різних груп ризику. Матеріал і методи. Аналізували дані когорти хворих із папілярними карциномами ЩЗ, які отримували комбіноване лікування 1995-2014 роками (4 956 осіб), і хворих, яким було проведено радіойод-терапію після екстрафасціальної тиреоїдектомії 2018 року (98 осіб). Результати. Частота папілярних карцином ЩЗ з агресивнішими характеристиками (великий розмір, наявність метастазування, інтра- або екстратиреоїдної інвазії, мультифокальності) та більш несприятливим перебігом (вища стадія хвороби та групи ризику, більша кількість курсів радіойод-терапії, несприятливий прогноз за MACIS) серед хворих когорти за 20 років спостереження зменшилася. У 71% хворих із папілярною карциномою ЩЗ категорії рТ1-рТ2N0M0 за результатами діагностичного сканування накопичення радіофармпрепарату було відсутнім або незначним. Висновки. Радикальне видалення ЩЗ із пухлиною є необхідною умовою для проведення хворим із папілярною карциномою ЩЗ дуже низького та низького ризику лише радіойод-діагностики без подальшої процедури радіойод-абляції. Водночас, враховуючи українські реалії, цілком відмовитися від застосування абляції з використанням 131I в пацієнтів України, які входять до групи з низьким ризиком (що є сучасним трендом у світовій тиреодології), наразі не можна.

Мета — оцінка ефективності та безпечності використання інсуліну деглюдек як базального інсуліну в базисно-болюсній терапії дітей і підлітків із цукровим діабетом 1-го типу (ЦД1). Матеріал і методи. Обстежено 47 хворих на ЦД1 віком від 4 до 17 років із тривалістю захворювання від 1 місяця до 13 років. Інсулін деглюдек спочатку призначали пацієнтам (n=23) у тій самій дозі, що й інсулін гларгін. Пацієнтам, які отримували Human NPH (n=15), інсулін деглюдек призначали в дозі, меншій на 20%. Для пацієнтів із уперше виявленим ЦД1 (n=9) дозу інсуліну деглюдек розраховували як 1/3 або 1/2 добової дози інсуліну. Кожні 5 днів проводили корекцію дози інсуліну відповідно до профілю глікемії. У 23 хворих застосовували технологію безперервного моніторингу глюкози крові «FreeStyle Libre» (Abbott, США). Результати та обговорення. Через 6 місяців після початку застосування аналога інсуліну деглюдек вміст глікованого гемоглобіну знизився з 8,18±0,25% до 7,31±0,19% (р<0,01). Глікемія натще становила 7,22±0,38 ммоль/л, постпрандіальна — 9,28±0,48 ммоль/л. Показники глікемії протягом ночі були сталими та нижчими, ніж на початку дослідження (8,14±0,18 ммоль/л, р<0,05). Висновки. Зменшення коливань глікемії та частоти виникнення гіпоглікемічних станів пов’язано з безпіковим профілем дії аналога інсуліну ультратривалої дії деглюдек.
Вплив комбінованого фітопрепарату Седаристон на вуглеводний обмін і психоемоційний стан хворих на цукровий діабет із депресивним синдромом
Authors: Tkach S.M.
Published: July 2019

Мета — вивчити вплив комбінованого фітопрепарату Седаристон, що містить стандартизовані сухі екстракти звіробою (100 мг) та валеріани (50 мг) (esparma GmbH, Німеччина), на вуглеводний обмін і психоемоційний стан хворих на цукровий діабет (ЦД) із депресивним синдромом. Матеріал і методи. До дослідження включено 60 хворих на ЦД 1-го та 2-го типів із депресивним синдромом, діагностованим за даними опитування за шкалами Бека та PHQ‑9. Усі пацієнти постійно приймали стандартну інсулінотерапію та/або цукрознижувальні пероральні препарати, 30 хворих додатково приймали Седаристон по 2 капсули двічі на день упродовж 2 місяців. Перед початком приймання препарату Седаристон і протягом наступних 3 місяців проводили оцінку психоемоційного стану (через 2 тижні, 1, 2 і 3 місяці). Стан вуглеводного обміну (за показниками глікованого гемоглобіну та глікемії) оцінювали на початку та через 3 місяці дослідження. Результати. У пацієнтів, які приймали Седаристон, суттєво зменшилася симптоматика депресивного синдрому з вірогідним зниженням кількості балів за шкалою PHQ‑9 із 13,1±1,4 бала до 8,6±1,4 бала вже за 1 місяць лікування та за шкалою Бека з 23,2±1,5 бала до 17,7±2,0 бала за 2 місяці лікування з подальшим поліпшенням, на відміну від хворих, які не приймали Седаристон: 11,4±1,0 бала vs 9,9±1,0 бала (p>0,1) за шкалою PHQ‑9 і 17,6±1,1 бала vs 17,1±2,1 бала (p>0,1) за шкалою Бека. Через 3 місяці після початку лікування Седаристоном на тлі позитивної динаміки депресивного синдрому у хворих знизився рівень глікованого гемоглобіну з 9,8±0,5% до 7,9±0,3% (р<0,01), на відміну від пацієнтів, які не приймали Седаристон: 8,8±0,2% vs 9,0±0,4% (p>0,1). Крім того, через 3 місяці терапії знизився середньодобовий показник глікемії у хворих, які приймали Седаристон: із 13,1±0,8 ммоль/л до 10,0±0,5 ммоль/л (р<0,01), на відміну від хворих, які не приймали його: 11,4±0,6 ммоль/л vs 11,8±1,0 ммоль/л (p>0,1). Висновки. Приймання препарату Седаристон (2 капсули двічі на день) упродовж 2 місяців у комплексній терапії хворих на ЦД, окрім позитивної тривалої дії на симптоматику депресивного синдрому, позитивно впливало на вуглеводний обмін зі зниженням за 3 місяці рівня глікованого гемоглобіну на 1,9%. Це свідчить про ефективність і доцільність терапії пацієнтів із ЦД комбінованим рослинним препаратом Седаристон із метою поліпшення не лише психоемоційного стану, але й вуглеводного обміну.

Гіпофіз-залежний надлишок СТГ може бути генетичним захворюванням (у літературі описано низку мутацій, які призводять до ізольованого надлишку гормону росту) або як симптом у складі синдромного захворювання. Мета — провести повногеномний пошук асоціацій геному пацієнтів з акромегалією для виявлення відомих мутацій у генах, асоційованих із даним захворюванням, і суміжних ділянках. Створити першу референтну геномну базу пацієнтів з акромегалією української популяції для подальшого вивчення причин виникнення цієї хвороби та впровадження персоніфікованого лікування згідно з генетичним профілем. Результати. Проведено повногеномний пошук асоціацій у геномі 5 хворих на акромегалію. Використана панель генотипування дозволила ідентифікувати 154 однонуклеотидні поліморфізми в генах, які були описані раніше як асоційовані з акромегалією. Один пацієнт виявився гетерозиготним за альтернативною алеллю (AG) ОНП rs33927012 гена SDHB. Дана альтернативна алель є надзвичайно рідкісною у світовій популяції (0,9%, в європейській популяції — 2%). Її описано як шкідливу двома аналітичними системами. Мутації гена SDHB призводять до структурних змін у білку SDH (сукцинілзалежна дегідрогеназа), який відіграє ключову роль у циклі Кребса та окисному фосфорилюванні. Даний ген є тумор-супресор геном, і його мутації спричиняють 3Р синдром (акромегалія, феохромоцитома, парагангліома). Також знайдено мутації в генах SDHC, CDKN1B, унікальні для деяких пацієнтів даної вибірки. Висновки. Знайдено три екзонні загрозливі та потенційно шкідливі мутації в генах CDKN1B і SHDB, які виявляються в пацієнтів з ендокринними синдромами.
The importance of good examples

The implications of ambimorphic archetypes have been far-reaching and pervasive. After years of natural research into consistent hashing, we argue the simulation of public-private key pairs, which embodies the confirmed principles of theory. Such a hypothesis might seem perverse but is derived from known results. Our focus in this paper is not on whether the well-known knowledge-based algorithm for the emulation of checksums by Herbert Simon runs in θ( n ) time, but rather on exploring a semantic tool for harnessing telephony.
CLINICAL EVALUATION OF PATIENTS SUFFERING FROM RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS WITH RESPECT TO IRON DEFICIENCY
Authors: Kumar Dr. Manish
Published: July 2019

Iron deficiency results in the decreased synthesis of important molecules including iron containing enzymes thereby inducing cellular organic functional disturbances. If not corrected in a timely manner, iron deficiency anemia (IDA) will ensue. The consequences of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) range from impaired psychological and physical well-being and decreased occupational abilities to developmental troubles in children and increased morbidity and mortality in some patient populations. Moreover, iron deficiency is a risk factor in various medical settings because it impedes erythropoietic response to acute and chronic anemia. Hence based on above findings the present study was planned to evaluate the levels of iron in rheumatoid

The present study was planned in Department of General Medicine, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Patna from jan 2018 to june 2018. Group A consist of 30 informed male and female consented patients diagnosed with Rheumatoid arthritis were enrolled for the study. The group B consist of 30 control patients for comparative evaluation.

Hence from present study it can be concluded that, there is no known prevention for iron deficiency anaemia in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients other than the reduction of contributory factors. Therapy goals are to reduce pain and inflammation and improve quality of life. Surgery to repair, replace or fuse joints may help in serious conditions.

Molecular Interactions in Binary Surfactant Solutions: Effect of pH
Authors: Kochkodan Olga , Maksin Victor , Antraptseva Nadiya , Semenenko Tetyana
Published: July 2019

By using surface tension and conductivity measurements, the colloid-chemical properties of the mixtures of cationic hexadecylpyridinium bromide with nonionic Triton X-100 surfactants were investigated both in the bulk solution and at air/solution interface at different pH values. The composition of mixed micelles and adsorption layers, parameters of molecular interactions in mixed micelles βm and adsorption layers βσ, as well as standard free energies of micelle formation ΔG0mic and adsorption ΔG0ads were calculated. It was found that molecules of the nonionic surfactant presumably dominate in the mixed micelles and adsorption layers. It was shown that βm and βσ have negative values, which indicate the strengthening of intermolecular interactions in the mixed micelles and adsorption layers. Based on the data obtained, it was suggested that ion-dipole interactions are involved in the formation of intermolecular structures between nonionic and cationic surfactants in aqueous solution and at the air-solution interface. It was shown that βm, βσ as well as ΔG0mic and ΔG0ads parameter depends on the solution pH value. The complex interplay of ion-dipole, protonation and chelation processes, which occur in the surfactant mixtures at different pH and affect the strength of intermolecular interaction, should be taken into account for data analysis.

El giro hermenéutico aceptado desde la teoría estructurante del Derecho
Authors: Villacorta Mancebo Luis Quintín
Published: July 2019

La Hermenéutica ha desarrollado consecuencias teóricas de alcance acerca del conocimiento social, evitando con ello los errores de la autocomprensión metódica de las ciencias del espíritu elaborada durante el siglo XIX. Para la hermenéutica de la facticidad, el contexto objetivo del caso sometido a análisis cobra auténtica relevancia, y la acción de comprender es considerada un saber práctico, un saber actuante. Considerada desde esta perspectiva, la Ciencia del Derecho adopta la forma de reflexión sobre la producción jurídica, y con ello enlaza la concepción sostenida por la Teoría Estructurante del Derecho, para la cual, la hermenéutica filosófica adquiere el valor "de ejemplar desde el punto de vista de la "aplicación" y de una "precomprensión" que abarca al propio intérprete". Considerada a modo de "teoría de la producción del derecho", apuesta por el reencuentro de Derecho y Realidad: el Derecho como realidad práctica. La labor de práctica social propia del trabajador del derecho se entiende creativa, abandonándose la diferenciación entre Norma y aplicación de la Norma, y reconociendo lo inevitable de una complementación jurídica productiva llevada a cabo a través del acto reflexivo de generación jurídica. En este quehacer, en lugar de "aplicar Derecho", la actividad del jurista persigue "extraer el Derecho" en su sentido original y radical, tarea llevada a cabo a través de una concreción progresiva de la Norma adaptada al problema. La Norma jurídica, por tanto, es entendida como "producto", y la resolución de cada caso requiere una nueva producción normativa hasta su entrega como Norma de decisión.

Criterio para establecer el plazo de recurrir el silencio administrativo negativo
Authors: Escuin Palop Vicente
Published: July 2019

En nuestro ordenamiento vigente hay normas y principios contradictorios relativos a la existencia de un plazo preclusivo para la interposición del recurso contencioso en el supuesto de desestimación por silencio administrativo de las solicitudes o recursos presentados por los interesados. Una amplia corriente jurisprudencial del TC ampara, al menos, la ampliación de los plazos legales establecidos en la LJ aunque no los ha declarado, expresamente, inconstitucionales, mientras que el TS carece de una posición unitaria en la materia. El trabajo pretende la individualización de un criterio para armonizar la obligación de la Administración de resolver de forma expresa y, el correlativo derecho del ciudadano a esperar una resolución, con la existencia de plazos preclusivos para interponer el recurso contencioso.

Our study aimed to investigate subacute exposure to alcohol in relation to bone microstructure of mice. Animals from experimental (E) group drank a solution composed of 15 % ethanol and water for 14 days (one remodeling cycle), while those from control (C) group drank only water. In the compact bone of E group, decreased bone formation and increased porosity were observed which corresponds with lower levels of serum alkaline phosphatase and glutathione. Alcohol significantly increased sizes of primary osteon's vascular canals and decreased those of secondary osteons, Haversian canals. Relative bone volume, bone mineral density (BMD), relative bone volume without marrow cavity were also lower in E group. On the contrary, trabecular bone microstructure did not differ significantly between E and C groups. Liver function test showed higher levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase in alcohol-fed mice. Serum calcium, phosphate were significantly lower in E group. According to our study, only changes in compact bone microstructure of mice following one remodeling cycle were observed due to both direct and indirect effects of alcohol.
Cell responses to the impact of physiological doses of ultraviolet radiation and their modulation by plant polyphenols

Published: July 2019

In this study it was investigated the responses of cultured human cells – keratinocytes and fibroblasts to physiological doses of ultraviolet radiation (UVR) applied with or without plant polyphenolic compounds: rutin, quercetin, taxofolin, silybin and baikalein. Experimental data obtained in this work indicate the presence of synergism in the action of physiological doses of UVR and plant polyphenolic compounds on inflammatory signaling pathways in keratinocytes and fibroblasts. It is concluded that the identified synergies can contribute to the adaptation of the skin to subsequent exposure to UVR, and thus be one of the photoprotective mechanisms of the plant polyphenolic compounds.
