ABSTRACT… Background: Acute appendicitis continues to be the most common surgical problem till date and its diagnosis in this era of advance innovation still remains to be on lock horns, resulting in the high rates of negative appendectomy. In this perplexed dilemma the designed scoring systems have been forwarded to aid the clinical accuracy in patients for suspicious appendicitis.The appendicitis Inflammatory Response (AIR) score has outperformed the more widespread Alvarado scoring (ALS) in many documented studies. So, the aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the AIR score with ALS system for diagnostic accuracy in patients with suspicious appendicitis. Study Design: Prospective comparative study to evaluate the AIR and ALS at score of (5 – 8) in 150 patients with suspected appendicitis. Setting: Tertiary care hospital. Period: March 2016 to January 2018. Methods: The score were measured and compared for diagnostic accuracy through statistical analysis. Results: This prospective study has drawn an inference that AIR scoring system for suspicious appendicitis has slightly higher percentage (91.07%) of sensitivity compared to ALS system (86.36%). This study enunciates the positive, negative predictive values for profound accuracy of diagnosis with 91.07%, 73.68% and 86.67% by AIRs and 86.36%, 62.50% and 80% by ALS systems (ALs) respectively. Among 150 patients, 30 (20%) were with negative appendectomies. Conclusion: The data of present study appreciate that:AIRs system having variable of CRP and WBC has high diagnostic accuracy in comparison to ALS system of patients with suspected appendicitis.AIRs can safely protect the health care resource by avoiding un-necessary hospitalization, Investigations and interventions.

This study examines the "Economic Impact of Craftsmen Statue on Community Base Tourism Development in Tohpati village Klungkung Bali". The core concept of economic problems is the imbalance between unlimited human needs and the means of satisfying the needs of a limited number. Economics should not be emphasized through the point, but it should be emphasized as an approach to explain human behavior (Gary Becker). The economic system is a means used to regulate all economic activities in society whether done by the government or private in order to achieve prosperity and prosperity together. The Economic system can be divided into three namely: a First capitalist economic system that is all economic activity submitted to the market. Second, the communist economic system is all things governed by the government. The third is a mixed economic system that is a combination of the two economic systems above (capitalist and communist). Indonesia should adopt a mixed economic system because firstly, Indonesia is an emerging country, where market failures often occur due to uneven information or accessibility to transportation and communication facilities. The second is that there are still many Indonesian people are below the poverty line. Thirdly most Indonesians have businesses that are still classified into small and medium enterprises that still can not compete perfectly with a bigger business.

İlk Çağ uygarlıklarının ortaya çıktığı Doğu toprakları dünya medeniyetinin beşiği kabul edilmektedir. Dünya kültürünün oluşumuna önemli katkı sağlayan uygarlık merkezlerinden biri de Akdeniz bölgesidir. Bu coğrafyanın doğal zenginlikleri ve sosyal şartları ilk uygarlıkların doğması için uygun bir zemin oluşturmuştur. Geçmişten bizlere miras kalan en büyük medeniyetlerden birisi hiç şüphesiz, Eski Mısır uygarlığıdır. Mısır medeniyeti özgün ve yenilikçi yapısıyla komşu kültürlerin çok önünde yer almıştır. Birçok tarihi belgeler ışığında çevre devletlerin zengin Mısır kültüründen etkilendiği anlaşılmaktadır. Mısır uygarlığı eski olmakla birlikte, krallık dönemleri ve zaman içindeki sürekliliği ile de ilgi çekmektedir. Mısır toplumunun yaşamında önemli bir yer tutan müzikal eylemler, ayin dansları tarih öncesinden süregelen eski inanç etkisi varlığının açık bir göstergesidir. Diğer eski doğu medeniyetlerinde olduğu gibi, müziğin şiirle ve dansla yakın bağlantısı Mısır kültürünün başlıca özelliklerinden sayılır. Eski Mısır drama gizemlerinin kökenleri buradadır. Yapılan araştırmalar sayesinde bu coğrafyada kullanılan çalgıları tanımayla birlikte, çalgıların detaylı incelenmesi sonucu dönem müziğinin özellikleri ve karakteri hakkında bilgiler elde emek mümkün olmuştur. Dönemler ilerledikçe, sanat ve müzik alanında gelişimlerle birlikte, kültürün tamamen farklı bir duruma doğru yöneldiği görülmüştür. Bu araştırmada, İlk Çağ uygarlıkları bağlamında Eski Mısır'ın krallık dönemlerindeki sanat ve müzik kültürü üzerine incelemeler yapılmış, toplum üzerindeki etkisi ve işlevinden söz edilerek amaçlarına değinilmiştir. Krallık dönemlerine ait sanat, müzik türleri ve çalgılar hakkında genel bilgiler verilerek, Mısır medeniyetinde dans ve müziğin kullanma şekilleri, dinsel ve günlük yaşamdaki rolleri açıklanmaya çalışılmıştır.

Climate change is one of the biggest challenges the world is facing today and it has the potential to create havoc with the agrarian livelihoods across the globe. Therefore, this paper attempts to explain the probable impacts of human induced climate change on natural resources in Kashmir, India. An ample amount of literature was reviewed meticulously to ascertain the impacts of climatic variability on natural resources vis-a-vis agriculture, biodiversity and water bodies as well as other common issues related to human resources in Kashmir. Loss of certain indigenous food varieties (i.e. nick cheena), reduction in natural forest cover (less than 11%) and loss of important water resources has aggravated the already dilapidated situation in this most vulnerable state of India. Scientific evidences revealed that there will be more devastating climatic effects on natural resources in Kashmir- India, which will fall disproportionately on poor communities, particularly dry land farmers, forest dwellers and fishermen of the state.

Leaf curl disease on sunflower caused by begomovirus genus of the family geminiviridae. Present investigations on field survey for disease incidence, field diagnostic symptoms and its spatial and temporal distribution in major sunflower growing parts of North Eastern Karnataka through GPS system during 2013-14, revealed that the disease was found to occur at all the stages of sunflower under field condition and exhibited symptoms such as vein thickening (enations) on abaxial surface of the leaves, upward curling and reduction in leaf size and severe discoluration of capitulum (Head) followed by bushy appearance. GPS based survey indicated that the % disease incidence varied from location to location (spatial variation) and also from season to season (temporal variation). The low incidence was noticed during Kharif condition which is ranged between 6.34-11.16, with the average incidence of 11.2%, 7.4% and 6.3% in Koppal, Raichur and Ballari districts repectively. Whereas during Rabi/summer season, high magnitude of disease noticed in many of the locations surveyed and is recorded upto 92.9 %. The GPS maps plotted based on PDI scale (0-3) represents high risk areas of the disease in Raichur and adjacent areas of Nort Eastern Karnataka and the result shows that the disease occurrence was more in rabi as compared to Kharif situations irrespective of locations. GPS survey map is an indicator to locate the nature of disease spread so as to conclude the hotspot areas.

Feminizm ve Görsel Tasarım: Birinci Kuşak Feminizm Dönemindeki Kozmetik Reklamlarında Kadın İmgelerinin Dönüşümü
Authors: ER ÖZDEN Eda , ÖZDEN Zafer
Published: January 2019

Feminist hareket başlangıcından bu yana sosyo-ekonomik-politik ve
kültürel alanlardaki etkileriyle insanları ve toplumu derinden etkilemiştir. Tarihsel
açıdan, feminizm toplumsal değişim konusunda belli başlı güçlerden birisi
olmuştur ve kadınların, reklamlar da dâhil olmak üzere, kültürel ürünlerdeki
temsili üzerine odaklanmasıyla hem kadınların maddi koşulları hem de toplumun
kültürel yaşamı üzerinde değişimler yaratmıştır. Toplum içinde kadınlar
hakkında hakim olan düşünceleri yansıttıkları için reklamlar feministlerin en
çok tartıştıkları konulardan birisi olmuştur. Kadınların reklamlardaki temsili
ve feminizmin bu imgelerin dönüşümü üzerindeki etkisi bizi temel bir sorunla
karşı karşıya getirmektedir: Reklamlardaki kadın imgeleri toplumsal koşullara
bağlı bir biçimde on yıllık dönemler içinde değişmektedir ve kadınların
sosyo-ekonomik-politik ve kültürel mücadeleleri belirli bir dönemin toplumsal
koşullarından ayrılamamaktadır. Bu nedenle feminist hareketin dalgalarını
tarihsel dönemleştirme için kullanmak ve kadın temsillerini bu dönemlerin
toplumsal koşullarını göz önüne alarak çözümlemek işgören bir yöntem olacaktır.
Her bir feminist dalga, toplumun sürekli değişim içinde olan koşullarından ortaya
çıkan farklı kuramsal ve pratik alanlarla ilgili zihinsel meşguliyetleriyle,
kadının temsili üzerinde kendine özgü etkilerde bulunmuştur. 1800 yıllardan
başlayarak 1960’lı yıllara kadar uzanan birinci dalga feminizm, ataerkiye karşı
temel konuları ortaya koyduğu için belirli bir tarihsel öneme sahiptir. Bu çalışmanın
amacı,  araştırmanın konusuna ve tarihsel
dönemleştirmesine uygunluk gösteren  ve
ilk dalga feminizmin etkisiyle bu dönemin cinsel işbölümüne ve toplumsal
beklentilerine karşı çıkan kadın temsilleri üzerine feminist ve sosyolojik bir

A Polish Parody of “Our Father” from the Middle of the 17th Century and its Russian Translation: in Search of an Unknown Polish Source
Authors: Jansson Olena
Published: January 2019

The purpose of this study is a textual analysis of a Russian translation of a Polish pamphlet, a parody of the prayer “Our Father”, which was found among documents from 1671–1673 in the archive of the Ambassadorial Chancery (Posol’skii prikaz). The actual source of the translation was not found, but since any study of a translated text must include an analysis of its connection with the original, it was first of all necessary to pay attention to the known copies of the Polish pamphlet “Ojcze nasz krolu polski Janie Kazimierzu” (“Pacierz dworski”), since one of its now most probably lost copies was translated into Russian. “Ojcze nasz krolu polski Janie Kazimierzu” is a Polish political parody from the middle of the 17th century (probably 1665), directed against King John II Casimir Vasa. The article investigates the history of its creation, describes its form, content, and genre, discusses its literary value, the Polish tradition of parodying religious texts, and analyzes the versions of the pamphlet. As a result, it was possible to reveal some new details about the anonymous author and the time when the work was written, the number and character of the preserved copies, the correlation between manuscript variants and their later editions. A comparative analysis of seven different textual variants of the Polish pamphlet made it possible to find a version which is textually — and perhaps even genetically — close to the Russian translation (a copy of the family saga “Sylva rerum Szyrmów”). Particular attention is paid to the interpretation of Polish translation parody in mid-17th century Russian culture, the possible reasons why this Polish political pamphlet caught the attention of the Russian translator (reader), and the functional transformation of the occasional political pamphlet into a parody with a political theme and a more explicit humoristic component. The appendix provides a parallel publication of the Polish pamphlet from the family saga “Sylva rerum Szyrmów” and the Russian translation from the archive of the Ambassadorial Chancery.
Church-Slavonic Elements as a Source of the Czech Biblical Style in the Period of the Czech National Revival (Unique Attempt of František Novotný from Luže)
Authors: Bartoň Josef
Published: January 2019

The article deals with linguistic aspects of a Czech Biblical text originating in the period of the beginning of the Czech National Revival which has until recently been entirely forgotten. The text is a Tetraevangelion written by a Catholic priest František Novotný from Luže (1768–1826), an almost forgotten contemporary and collaborator of the great representatives of the Czech National Revival Josef Dobrovský and Josef Jungmann. Novotný was an expert on Latin, Greek, Church Slavonic and old and new Czech (he was also the author of the early grammar of Czech that was published in Czech). His four Gospels in Czech, published in 1810–1811, belong to the “learning type” translations. It continues the Czech Biblical translation tradition (at the turn of the 19th century represented primarily by the translation of the New Testament and of the entire Bible by František Faustin Procházka, which followed mainly the baroque Catholic St Wenceslas Bible and the Kralice Bible of the Moravian brethren), but has many specific features. The article focuses on the phenomenon that manifested itself (during the author's research of Novotný's text lasting several years) as its main and most interesting trait, namely, a strong influence of the Church Slavonic Biblical text, which is an absolutely rare phenomenon at the beginning of the Czech National Revival. The author, confronting the previous Biblical translation tradition with Novotný’s, reveals a number of innovations that were materialised in Novotný's translation and whose origin in the Church Slavonic Bible is certain or at least very probable. The innovations concern various levels of linguistic description, mainly syntax and lexicon, but also word formation and morphology. The most interesting of Novotný’s novelties is his usage of the adjectival past participle ending with -(v)ší, since this category was introduced into literary Czech in the period of the Czech Revival. It is also important that Church Slavonic is, with high probability, the only source of the enrichment and “refreshment” of the Czech Biblical style that is written in another Slavonic language (Novotný seems not to use any living Slavonic languages).

A Clinical and Radiological Comparative Assessment of Transverse Mid-Diaphyseal Femur Fractures in Cats After Osteosynthesis with Mini Titanium and Resorbable Plates
Authors: AKGÜL Mustafa Barış , YANIK Kemal
Published: January 2019

The aim of this
study is to make a clinical and radiological assessment of whether titanium
mini plates and resorbable plates are sufficient to provide a functional
recovery for the treatment of femur fractures in cats. Animals used in this
study were 10 cats brought with complaint of fracture caused by various
traumatic reasons and diagnosed on transversal mid-diaphyseal femur fractures
by clinical and radiological examination. In all cases, the procedures were performed under general anesthesia. Osteosynthesis was performed by placing mini titanium plate and
resorbable plate with appropriate technique. During the first post-operative
day, in all cases, recurrent fractures were observed in various ways. The
operation performed again with same technique by replacing implants with the
new and the same one. At the first post-operative day of new operation,
fractures were observed in all cases. Consequently; even the increased chance
of success due to low loading level (eg. Craniomaksillofasial surgery) along
the operation regions and the positive effects of preventive measures like
bandage usage, it is unable to sustain the stabilization in the  femur diaphysis where the force has too much
influence on it. Additionally it was concluded that the application of 2.0 mm
mini titanium plates and 2.5 mm resorbable plates that we used for
mid-diaphyseal femur fractures in cats are clinically not useful because these materials
are expensive and require special tools during the application.
The impact of a preventive intervention on persistent, cross-situational early onset externalizing problems
Authors: Lorber Michael F , Olds David , Donelan-McCall Nancy
Published: January 2019

The Nurse-Family Partnership (NFP) home visiting intervention for low income first time mothers was evaluated for its preventive impact on persistent, cross-situational early onset externalizing problems (EXT). Seven hundred and thirty-five women in the Denver, Colorado area were randomly assigned into one of two active conditions (nurse or paraprofessional home visiting from pregnancy through child age 2) or a control group in which children were screened and referred for behavioral and developmental problems. Externalizing behavior was assessed by parent report when the children were 2, 4, 6, and 9 years old; teachers provided reports at ages 6 and 9. Latent profile analyses suggested the presence of persistent, cross-situational early onset EXT in approximately 6% to 7% of girls and boys. The intervention deflected girls away from these EXT and toward a pattern marked by a persistent moderate elevation of externalizing behavior that was evident at home and not at school. This finding should be interpreted cautiously given the small number of girls with the elevated EXT. Surprisingly, the intervention also moved girls away from stable low level externalizing behavior toward the moderately elevated pattern. Both of the significant effects on girls’ externalizing behavior were modest. No statistically significant effects were found for boys’ externalizing behaviors, which exhibited a somewhat different patterning across time and reporter. Effect sizes were generally similar for the nurse and paraprofessional-visited groups. The results are discussed in the context of prior efforts to prevent early EXT and emerging evidence on the normative development of externalizing behavior.

Meditation as an Intervention for Health: A Framework for Understanding Meditation Research
Authors: Allbritton Marcel , Heeter Carrie
Published: January 2019

We propose a framework for understanding meditation that can support greater scientific rigor in reporting meditation research, and selecting meditation health interventions. There is no consistent and thorough framework for describing meditation research interventions. This impedes rigor of meditation research design and interpretation of findings. This also limits meaningful comparisons across research studies. The audience for this article includes researchers, meditation experts, healthcare professionals, and those with interest in meditation. The framework describes the key components of a meditation intervention. We also discuss how meditation can effect individuals differently, and provide suggestions for describing the qualifications of the expert who designed the meditations in an intervention. The meditation framework supports (1) comparing different meditation interventions, and (2) understanding how meditation interventions lead to outcomes. We provide examples from a Yoga Therapy perspective of meditation (our domain of expertise), and from published research on meditation to illustrate applications of the meditation framework. The meditation framework provides a way of characterizing meditation interventions by distinguishing seven essential components. The first four components describe the meditation session (individual, object, experience, and immediate effects). Approach describes the foundation and source of a meditation practice. The outcome component represents both intended goals or reasons for prescribing the meditation intervention and other longer term effects that may occur. The engagement component refers to duration, spacing and frequency of doing the practice and quality of attention. These seven components can be applied to any type of meditation intervention. We explain the components of the framework and then offer examples. Our goal is to express the importance of having a framework for describing components of meditation across systems of knowledge and methods of application. We hope this article begins a dialogue with experts in other forms of meditation interventions, as they apply, adapt and respond to the proposed framework.
Analyzing social media data: A mixed-methods framework combining computational and qualitative text analysis

Published: January 2019

To qualitative researchers, social media offers a novel opportunity to harvest a massive and diverse range of content, without the need for intrusive or intensive data collection procedures. However, performing a qualitative analysis across a massive social media data set is cumbersome and impractical. Instead, researchers often extract a subset of content to analyze, but a framework to facilitate this process is currently lacking. We present a four-phased framework for improving this extraction process, which blends the capacities of data science techniques to compress large data sets into smaller spaces, with the capabilities of qualitative analysis to address research questions. We demonstrate this framework by investigating the topics of Australian Twitter commentary on climate change, using quantitative (Non-Negative Matrix inter-joint Factorization; Topic Alignment) and qualitative (Thematic Analysis) techniques. Our approach is useful for researchers seeking to perform qualitative analyses of social media, or researchers wanting to supplement their quantitative work with a qualitative analysis of broader social context and meaning.
Religious Communication in Digital Public Sphere of Bangladesh
Authors: Al-Zaman Md. Sayeed
Published: January 2019

The interrelationship among religious communities in a particular society is complex. On many occasions, one community becomes dominant owing to several societal factors, and other communities remain on the edge. Religion in Bangladesh has a complex history. Besides, digital media as a new phenomenon has met religion recently, although this issue is often overlooked. As a result, no formal academic endeavor is seen in Bangladesh to date which focuses on the emerging digital Islamic public sphere and online religious communication. The present study tries to bridge this gap. Through careful observation of the digital public, their used contents, and produced cases of contestation, this article finds some exclusive communication patterns. First, communication among religious communities is unequal where Muslims dominate the discourse. Second, Islamic contents are more frequent in cyberspace than the contents of other religions. Third, Muslims produce digital media-based disinformation to marginalize religious minorities in both online and offline spheres.

Published: January 2019

For the assessment of the precipitation state in aluminum-based alloys by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), the sample must have an orientation in the [100] direction of the matrix. TEMs equipped with objective lenses that are optimized for high resolution are mostly characterized by limited sample tilt angles. The required crystal orientation must thus be taken into account during sampling. A favorably oriented grain was chosen in a coarse-grained material using electron backscatter diffraction and prepared in a suitable direction applying the in-situ lift-out method in the focused ion beam device. After that, the final correction of the orientation in the TEM amounts to less than 12°.

It is therefore a valuable tool for subcontractors of the heat treatment industry to monitor their production and treatment response on various parts. Through different examples, we will present actual cases that involve in particular automotive parts.

We show that there is a strong interdependence between material and heat treatment, one being related to each other, a successful treatment depends both on the metallurgical quality of the material and the production quality of the heat treatment process. We will discuss the type of treatments like: vacuum hardening or under protective atmosphere, surface induction hardening, carburizing, nitriding and brazing.

A transição de carreira ocorre nas mais diversas profissões. Por transição na carreira esportiva compreendemos desde a transição entre as fases de desenvolvimento do atleta no esporte, até o encerramento da carreira esportiva. Este trabalho de revisão bibliográfica pretende compreender como a Psicologia do Esporte aborda este tema. Para isso, buscou- se definir o processo de transição de carreira esportiva, suas fases e como os atletas percebem e enfrentam cada momento. Foram expostos alguns modelos conceituais que têm como objetivo preparar o atleta para cada fase, valorizando seu conhecimento prévio e buscando fortalecê-lo. O trabalho proporcionou verificar que a atuação do psicólogo do esporte é ainda pouco desenvolvida, encontrando-se escassa referência bibliográfica, especificamente no Brasil, onde foram relacionadas somente duas revisões de literatura a respeito do tema. Pode-se concluir que o psicólogo do esporte brasileiro necessita atuar neste campo para a compreensão da realidade nacional, considerando características econômicas, sociais e culturais do contexto esportivo e a especificidade de nosso atleta, suas necessidades e dificuldades para que programas específicos sejam desenvolvidos a fim de enfrentar as adversidades resultantes de transições que ocorrem durante a carreira esportiva.
O atleta e a Experiência da Hospitalização
Authors: Lima Luciana Tabarini , Rubio Katia
Published: January 2019

Considerado um dos principais fenômenos socioculturais do planeta, capaz de congregar nações de diferentes traços culturais e religiosos, o esporte de forma ampla, e os Jogos Olímpicos especificamente, reflete as marcas e transformações da sociedade ao longo do último século, espelhando as diferenças entre Estados, povos e classes. Parte do interesse despertado pelo público relaciona-se diretamente à figura do atleta. A construção da identidade do protagonista do espetáculo esportivo está associada diretamente ao movimento, à conquista, à visibilidade e a busca pela excelência. Superar barreiras é um desafio físico e emocional constante que conta ainda com o risco de lesões. Deixar de treinar e competir representa um afastamento da própria identidade, ou seja, o paciente atleta requer cuidados distintos de outros pacientes hospitalizados. O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar a singularidade do processo de internação e os modos de enfrentamento de atletas de nível olímpico hospitalizados. Para tanto serão utilizadas as narrativas biográficas de atletas de diferentes gerações olímpicas.
O sentido do esporte para atletas com e sem deficiência: uma compreensão fenomenológica
Authors: Epiphanio Erika Hofling
Published: January 2019

O presente trabalho teve por objetivo compreender o sentido do esporte competitivo para praticantes de atletismo com e sem deficiência, partindo-se de suas vivências. A Fenomenologia foi considerada o aporte teórico e metodológico condizente ao objetivo deste estudo, uma vez que ele tem se mostrado um importante caminho investigativo em busca da compreensão de fenômenos humanos subjetivos. Foram entrevistados seis atletas praticantes de atletismo, que participam regularmente de competições regionais ou nacionais, sendo que destes três são paratletas e três atletas sem deficiência. As entrevistas partiram de três questões mobilizadoras que facilitaram que os entrevistados relatassem suas vivências com relação ao esporte. A análise das entrevistas seguiu os quatro passos propostos por Giorgi (1985) que ao final constrói-se uma síntese de cada relato extraindo-se a essência do fenômeno na vivência de cada sujeito. Todos os dados foram confirmados pelos próprios sujeitos a posteriori. A partir do que foi relatado pelos atletas e paratletas estudados podemos concluir que o esporte se mostra como um importante recurso para a abertura de novas possibilidades e como um propulsor de superação de indivíduos na busca de seu desenvolvimento e da autorrealização humana.
O estilo de comunicação de professores em projetos sociais esportivos: uma intervenção baseada em filmagens
Authors: Corrêa Mikael Almeida , Marques Maurício Pinto , Paludo Simone Dos Santos
Published: January 2019

Promover o desenvolvimento positivo de jovens através do esporte é o objetivo central de muitos projetos sociais, que podem ser alvo de estudo da Psicologia, a fim de compreendermos como este processo pode ocorrer. O papel do treinador/educador e o ambiente construído em sua relação com os alunos é fundamental para a concretude deste Ideal. Uma abordagem positiva de comunicação por parte do educador, em detrimento a uma abordagem punitiva, pode ser correlacionada a diversos indicadores de desenvolvimento positivo. O objetivo deste estudo, de delineamento quase-experimental, é mensurar, através de filmagens, o padrão de comportamento verbal, pré e pós intervenção, de três professores de um projeto social esportivo na cidade de Rio Grande/RS, utilizando as categorias comportamentais do protocolo CBAS.Comparando-se as amostras de filmagens pré e pós intervenção, pode-se observar um aumento dos comportamentos positivos, especialmente da dimensão de Instrução.
Calculating Weighting Factors for Mixing Megavoltage Photon Beams to Achieve Desirable Dose Distribution in Radiotherapy
Authors: Tahmasebi Birgani M J , Chegeni N , Tahmasbi M , Hazbavi M , Hoseini S M
Published: January 2019

Background: In radiotherapy, low-energy photon beams are better adapted to the treated volume, and the use of high-energy beams can reduce hot spots in the radiation therapy. Therefore, mixing low and high energies with different ratios can control the rate of hotspots, as well as the dose distribution of the target volume.Material and Methods: The percentage depth doses (PDDs) were calculated at various depths, by using a fitted double exponential equation. Then, using quality factor equation and PDD of a 10×10 cm2 field, the amount of energy equivalent to each PDD and the value of weighting factors of 6, 18 MV energies were calculated to produce different energies. To validate the mathematical model, dosimetry of 10 MV energy was used. For this purpose, PDDs and dose Profile of 10 MV obtained from the mix were compared with ones obtained from the measurementResults: The value of weighting factor of 6 MV energy required for the 10 ×10 cm2 field to create dose distribution of 15 MV energy using 6 and 18 MV energies was obtained as equal to 0.57. Comparison of percentage depth dose curves and dose profile shows good agreement with the practical measurements of 10 MV for 10×10 cm2 field using gamma index.Conclusion: The simultaneous use of high and low photon energies with different weighting factors to achieve desirable energy makes possible the treatment of tumors located at various depths without the need for different modes of energy in the accelerator leading to a decrease in the cost of the equipment and a safer treatment of the cancerous patients.

La comunicación corporativa a través de las páginas Web: el caso de las universidades españolas
Authors: Tapia Frade Alejandro , Gómez Nieto Begoña
Published: January 2019

La comunicación corporativa supone un activo de suma importancia para cualquier organización. También para las universidades, que se encuentran en un proceso de convergencia que exige la generación de un discurso corporativo que se adapte al nuevo entorno competidor. Así, este trabajo analiza la comunicación corporativa de las universidades españolas a través de sus portales Web mediante la técnica de análisis de contenido con perspectiva cuantitativa. Los resultados ponen de manifiesto que aunque la presencia de una sección específica destinada a ésta en las páginas analizadas es mayoritaria, la gestión de contenidos de la misma no puede calificarse de buena, ya que no se incluye toda la información que debería, y todavía más, no se aprovecha la flexibilidad del soporte para generar discurso corporativo multimedia.
Esfera Pública y temas de conflicto
Authors: Serrano Oceja José Francisco
Published: January 2019

La relación entre sociedad y política tiene un espacio privilegiado en la esfera pública. Los temas de conflicto están sometidos a las leyes sociales impuestas por los medios de comunicación. Pero más allá de los medios de comunicación existen, sobre todo a la hora de abordar cuestiones como la relación entre Religión y Política, unos principios que deben tenerse en cuenta para el adecuado diálogo público.
Reproduktion des Kapitals als Verfassungsproblem
Authors: Blanke Bernhard
Published: January 2019

Das Bundesverfassungsgericht und die meisten Kommentare gehen von einem Grundkonsens über die erweiterte Unternehmensmitbestimmung aus, sei es in der Rede von dem „Gedanken" der Mitbestimmung, der in Deutschland schrittweise ,,rechtliche Gestalt gewonnen" habe, sei es im Verweis darauf, daß alle gesellschaftlichen Gruppen die Erweiterung der Mitbestimmung „im Prinzip" bejahen würden (S. 7 /9 des Urteilstextes vom 1. 3. 1979). Bezieht sich diese Konsensannahme auf die parlamentarische Mehrheit bei der Verabschiedung eines schon zurechtgestutzten Gesetzes, so wird die Anwendung des Gesetzes und seine Folgewirkung suspecie Verfassungsmäßigkeit an die Erhaltung des Konsenses gebunden. Doch diese harmonisierende Tendenz kaschiert nur oberflächlich die tiefgreifenden gesellschaftspolitischen Differenzen, durch die das politische Klima seit Mitte der 7 Oer Jahre geprägt zu werden beginnt. Die Konsensannahme kaschiert zudem, daß sich das Gericht nur vorläufig für die sozial-liberale Linie bundesrepublikanischer Politik entschieden hat. Differenzen und politische Entscheidung des Gerichts lassen sich an den - in Klagebegründung und Gegenstellungnahmen formulierten - Unterschieden in der Einschätzung der Mitbestimmung selbst festmachen, sie gehen aber tiefer und betreffen vor allem unterschiedliche Diagnosen über die Stabilität des status quo (1).
Neokorporativismus?
Authors: Kastendiek Hans
Published: January 2019

Dieser Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit einer Diskussion, die in der westdeutschen Sozialwissenschaft lange Jahre nur sehr zögernd geführt und erst in der letzten Zeit intensiviert wurde. Es geht um die Frage, ob sich in der Bundesrepublik oder generell in westeuropäischen kapitalistischen Demokratien Konturen eines „neuen Korporativismus" herausgebildet haben und ob sich diese mögliche Entwicklung gegenwärtig beschleunigt. Die bisherigen Antworten auf diese Frage sind sehr uneinheitlich und nicht immer konsistent. Oft hat es den Anschein, als werde der Begriff nur zur Etikettierung gegenwärtiger Tendenzen einer gesellschaftlich-politischen Formierung herangezogen. In dieser Situation will ich versuchen, einige Ergebnisse und konzeptionelle Überlegungen einer internationalen Diskussion vorzustellen, die als „corporatism"Debatte bezeichnet werden kann.
