Estimating energy savings and greenhouse gas emission reductions from energy rating and disclosure policies
Authors: Uriarte Cáceres Fátima
Published: December 2018

The purpose of this paper is to estimate the energy savings and greenhouse gas emission reductions from energy rating and disclosure policies in New York City. During the first six year of the policy, the City saw a cumulative energy savings of 10.8% and cumulative GHG reductions of 8.5%. However, these gross changes cannot necessarily be attributed to the benchmarking and transparency policies. In order to estimate the “counterfactual” scenario – what would have happened if the policy was not implemented, we use a combination of Difference-in-Difference Estimation and Propensity Score Matching. Based on this model, we conclude that the disclosure of Energy Star Scores to the public did not have a significant effect on energy savings and GHG emissions reductions for multifamily buildings.
¿Es el clima organizacional determinante de relaciones interpersonales o son las relaciones interpersonales las que determinan el clima organizacional?
Authors: Arias Gallegos Walter , Lazo Mora Jennifer , Quintana Cuentas Stephanie
Published: December 2018

In this study, the relationship between organizational climate and interpersonal relationships at work were analyzed in order to estimate the impact the first has on the second, and vice versa. To that end, 73 workers from a private business from Arequipa were evaluated using the Likert Organizational Profile and the Workplace Interpersonal Relationships Satisfaction Scale. The results suggest that there are positive and moderate correlations between variables, and that organizational climate has predictive power on interpersonal relationships at work, but not in the opposite way.

Published: December 2018

The measurement of efforts made by people engaged in software development has been hardly done in software engineering. The SEI proposes a set of practices for time management and personal productivity improvement of programmers or software engineers for software development and maintenance tasks, by monitoring and comparing the planned performance versus actual performance, which Watts Humphrey in the 90s named the Personal Software Process (PSP). The research that were reviewed show that, at a global level, the skills of engineers who join the software industry do not satisfy software industry expectations, and how PSP contributes to skills enhancement.

Published: December 2018

El ameloblastoma uniquístico (AU) representa aproximadamente el 6% de todos los ameloblastomas y es frecuentemente encontrado durante la segunda década de la vida, sin predilección por sexo, se localiza en la mandíbula en relación a un diente no erupcionado, demuestra características clínicas y radiográficas similares a los quistes maxilares, pero evidencia histológicamente epitelio ameloblástico. Aunque el AU tiene un comportamiento menos agresivo que el ameloblastoma sólido, se recomienda un tratamiento radical para la variante intramural debido a su naturaleza infiltrativa, lo que tiende a potenciarse cuando se localiza en el maxilar superior. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue describir un caso de ameloblastoma uniquístico intramural localizado en el maxilar superior de un paciente masculino de 26 años de edad, quien presentaba un aumento de volumen indoloro en hemicara derecha de cinco meses de evolución. De acuerdo al resultado de la biopsia incisional se decidió realizar una hemimaxilectomía utilizando un abordaje intrabucal y colocación de una malla de titanio en piso de la órbita. La localización y el tipo histológico del AU son factores a considerar en la elección de la terapéutica, es importante el seguimiento a largo plazo del paciente para valorar la posibilidad de recidivas y un abordaje interdisciplinario del caso.

Published: December 2018

El objetivo del presente estudio fue comparar la capacidad de desarrollo embrionario de ovocitos recuperados de ovarios de matadero y recuperados in vivo mediante ultrasonografía guiada (ovum pick-up, OPU) en un sistema de producción in vitro. Se realizaron nueve sesiones de colecta en 59 vacas Holstein para la obtención de ovocitos mediante OPU y se colectaron 408 ovarios de 204 vacas de matadero. Para la maduración in vitro de ovocitos solo se utilizaron aquellos de grado 1 y 2 mediante medios MIV, FIV y CIV® hasta el día 7. Se evaluó la tasa de recuperación de ovocitos, ovocitos grado 1 y 2 y el porcentaje de embriones (blastocitos) producidos in vitro al día 7. La tasa de recuperación de ovocitos fue mayor cuando se colectaron de ovarios de matadero comparado con ovocitos colectados por OPU (10.0 vs. 7.2 ovocitos por sesión/vaca; p<0.05). Hubo una mayor cantidad de ovocitos viables de grado 1 y 2 cuando la colecta fue de ovarios de matadero (7.6 vs. 3.4 ovocitos por sesión/vaca; p<0.05). La tasa de blastocitos fue de 30.5 y 20.8% con ovocitos de ovarios de matadero y por OPU, respectivamente (p<0.05). Se obtuvo una mayor capacidad de desarrollo de ovocitos recuperados de ovarios de matadero que de aquellos recuperados por ovum pick-up.

El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo identificar y describir las características macroscópicas y microscópicas de la anatomía del páncreas de la alpaca, tanto en fetos del último tercio de gestación como en neonatos (0-30 días). Se estudiaron los páncreas de tres fetos del último tercio de gestación, y de crías de alpaca recién nacidas (n=3), de 0 días (n=5), 7 días (n=5), 15 días (n=5) y 30 días (n=5). En el estudio macroscópico se observó el páncreas in situ, sus conductos y su relación con otros órganos, tomándose medidas biométricas (longitud corporal, altura a la cruz, perímetro torácico y perímetro abdominal) y el peso de los individuos. Macroscópicamente, el páncreas es similar al de las alpacas adultas. Microscópicamente, el páncreas presenta una citoarquitectura celular definida, formada por acinos tubulares de citoplasma acidófilo, elongado, de núcleos basales e islotes irregulares (en cuanto a tamaño y forma), además de grupos celulares no diferenciados. Esta citoarquitectura varía en la primera semana de edad, donde la conformación de los acinos e islotes es irregular, presentando una alta tasa de división celular y gran cantidad de células precursoras distribuidas por todo el campo. La actividad celular disminuye con la edad, encontrándose en los animales de 30 días de nacidas una citoarquitectura bastante similar al de las alpacas adultas.

Authors: Carmona Erico R. , Plaza Tania , Recio-Sánchez Gonzalo , Parodi Jorge
Published: December 2018

La formación de nanopartículas de quitosano mediante el método de gelación iónica tiene un alto potencial para la carga, transporte y liberación controlada de moléculas. Es un método sencillo y las nanopartículas presentan buena absorción, estabilidad, biocompatibilidad y baja toxicidad. El florfenicol es uno de los antibióticos más utilizados en la industria acuícola y es administrado mezclado con el alimento en altas concentraciones, lo cual genera problemas de dosis efectivas y de residuos no deseados. De esta manera, la síntesis de nanopartículas de quitosano (Q) cargadas con florfenicol podría otorgar ventajas a la hora de proteger, transportar y liberar de forma controlada el fármaco en peces de interés económico. En el presente estudio se sintetizaron nanopartículas de quitosano y tripolifosfato de sodio (TPP) con y sin florfenicol para evaluar su carga efectiva y liberación. Los resultados obtenidos con espectrometría FTIR corroboran la formación de las nanopartículas de Q-TPP con los cambios observados en los patrones de espectros infrarojo entre el quitosano matriz y las nanopartículas sintetizadas. Las nanopartículas de Q-TPP pueden cargar entre 48 y 50% de florfenicol en su interior. El ensayo de liberación in vitro del antibiótico mostró una liberación controlada y estable en el tiempo en condiciones de pH ácido y temperatura controlada de 15° C de hasta 10 días. Finalmente, se muestra que las nanopartículas de Q-TPP tienen potencial para atrapar y liberar de forma controlada el fármaco evaluado.

Las aves y mamíferos constituyen la principal fuente de proteína animal para las poblaciones humanas originarias de la selva amazónica. La carne es destinada a la alimentación y otras partes del cuerpo son utilizadas en artesanías, adornos y objetos de uso cotidiano. Considerando el aprovechamiento y uso de la fauna, los objetivos del estudio fueron a) identificar las especies de aves y mamíferos aprovechadas por las poblaciones locales, b) determinar el uso de las aves y mamíferos, y c) calcular el valor económico de la biomasa extraída. Se realizó el registro del aprovechamiento de especies, mediante encuestas y la información recopilada fue sistematizada. Como resultado se encontró que en el Bajo Urubamba se aprovechan 10 especies de aves y 12 de mamíferos. El paujil (Mitu tuberosum) y las perdices (Crypturellus sp. y Tinamus tao) son las aves más aprovechadas. Se identificaron al majáz (Cuniculus paca), venado rojo (Mazama americana) y tapir o sachavaca (Tapirus terrestris) como los mamíferos con mayor biomasa extraída. El principal uso de la diversidad capturada es la alimentación de subsistencia.

“There was a virgin forest here; it was all woods”: local perceptions of landscape changes in Northeastern Brazil
Authors: Gonçalves Paulo Henrique , Rego Antônia Edna Magalhães , Medeiros Patrícia Muniz de
Published: December 2018

This paper presents a case study to understand how people from a rural population that has been undergoing intense anthropogenic transformations in recent decades perceive these local landscape changes. We conducted a participatory workshop, during which we used the scoring exercise method to stimulate the participants to rank the plant species that they consider most important for utilitarian and commercial purposes, and we employed the historical chart method to they represent the perceived changes in the availability of agricultural, wood, and medicinal plant resources over the last five decades. In order to further explore the historical chart results, we employed the thematic oral history method with those residents considered by the local people as having a high degree of knowledge about the local forest. Our findings show that people attribute great importance to the species of edible plants in the region, although they perceive them as having a low commercial potential. Regarding the perceived changes in the landscape, people indicated that there were declining areas of forest in the region, and that in the past, agriculture was practiced more intensely. Additionally, people perceive a decline in the availability of plants for wood purposes, and an increase in the availability of plants for medicinal purposes. These results indicate that even small rural populations can undertake significant changes in their surrounding ecosystems over time.
La regionalización y la educación bibliotecológica universitarias en Costa Rica: ¿una coincidencia o un cincuentenario convenido?
Authors: Córdoba González Saray
Published: December 2018

Este ensayo plantea cómo la regionalización de la educación superior y la formación universitaria en Bibliotecología en Costa Rica coinciden al aparecer en un momento histórico en el que la educación se convirtió en una pieza angular del desarrollo nacional. A partir de una revisión e interpretación de los hechos dados entre 1967 y 1997, se concluye que la conjunción de voluntades generadas más de dos décadas después de ocurridos ambos acontecimientos, sirvieron para reconocer el papel que ha jugado la regionalización en el desarrollo de la profesión en las regiones. Este nacimiento de ninguna manera fue una convención, sino, más bien, una hermosa coincidencia guiada por las necesidades del desarrollo nacional de la época.
IMPACT OF THE RUSSIAN TRADE BANS ON LITHUANIAN PORK SECTOR
Authors: Jurkėnaitė Nelė , Djuric Ivan
Published: December 2018

Over the last decade, Lithuanian pork sector faced dramatic changes, where trade relations with Russia had an important role. The research problem is defined as follows: how does the trade ban of Russia, imposed towards live pigs and pork originating from Lithuania, affect price changes on domestic Lithuanian pork market? The research aims at estimating the effects of the trade ban caused by the outbreak of the swine fever in Lithuania and providing proposals on situation development. The aim is achieved by analysing the transmission of price changes between Lithuanian and Russian pork markets by using the ARDL model. The results indicate a significant decrease in transmission of price changes, both in short- and long-run, from Lithuanian pig prices towards Russian domestic prices during the ‘2011 ban’ regime and further worsening of the situation during ‘2014 ban’ period that was mainly caused by the isolation of the Russian market and lack of export diversification strategy from the Lithuanian side. In Lithuania, high price volatility was not typical during the bans, while negative effects on welfare of farmers were evidenced by reduced trade volumes, which could be improved by biosafety and disease spread reducing measures, reassessing trade regulations and partners’ network.

Published: December 2018

La diabetes mellitus (DM) se considera una de las emergencias sanitarias mundiales del siglo XXI, por lo que constituye un tema de gran preocupación para la comunidad académica. Según estudios, la prevalencia de DM está aumentando notablemente en todo el mundo, debido al aumento de factores de riesgo como el sobrepeso, la obesidad y la falta de actividad física. Se estima que de continuar el aumento en los factores de riesgo, para el 2045 aproximadamente 693 millones de personas padecerán DM.La DM impacta de forma directa a quien lo padece en las diferentes esferas de su vida y se asocia con múltiples alteraciones físicas, psicológicas y sociales; causando una gran carga económica para las personas, las familias y para el sistema de salud, debido al uso incrementado de los servicios, la pérdida de productividad y a las múltiples complicaciones a largo plazo. En esa lógica, están presentes situaciones adversas como el estado funcional deficiente, hospitalizaciones innecesarias, eventos adversos de medicamentos, síntomas persistentes, asesorías contradictorias por parte de profesionales de la salud e incluso la muerte.Como citar este artículo: Garizábalo-Dávila CM, Rodríguez-Acelas AL, Cañon-Montañez W.

Aim. To assess echocardiographic data in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Material and methods. We included to study 129 women who underwent echocardiography (EchoCG) with Vivid-E9 ultrasound scanner: 55 people with RA and 32 with RA+arterial hypertension (AH). Allowing for the fact that in 36,8% of cases RA was combined with AH, the control group in addition to 14 healthy individuals included 28 people with AH.

Results. The systolic function of the left ventricle (LV), according to the size of the ejection fraction (EF), was preserved. EchoCG diagnosed diastolic dysfunction in 18,2% of patients with RA and 28,1% with RA + AH: usually of a rigid type (16,4% and 18,7%, respectively), less commonly pseudonormal (1,8% and 9,4%, respectively). An association of age and a) wall thickness, LV myocardium mass (r=0,46 and 0,6, respectively; p<0,0001) was found among patients with RA, which is absent in the group with AH; b) data characterizing the state of heart diastolic function (r=0,2÷0,31; p=0,001 and 0,03); c) global deformation (r=0,22; p=0,03). LV hypertrophy was noted in 3,6% of individuals with RA and 34,4% with RA+AH (p=0,02). The global deformation value more than -19,6% was in 34,5% of patients with RA and 59,4% with RA+AH (p=0,03). The global deformation changes were significant only in the presence of LV hypertrophy. Valve leaflet involvement and pathological regurgitation were present in 16,4% of patients with RA and in 31,2% of patients with RA+AH (p<0,05); open foramen ovale was noted in 3,6% and 15,6%, respectively (p<0,05); cardiac dropsy — in 18,2% and 12,5%, respectively.

Conclusion. EchoCG examination in various modes and technologies determined pathological changes, such as LV hypertrophy, valve disorders, mild cardiac dropsy, open foramen ovale, diastolic dysfunction and longitudinal systolic LV dysfunction in 45,4% of patients with RA and 96,9% with RA+AH. The value of the global systolic function can be a significant addition to the formation of cardiac risk groups with early prenosological signs of heart damage.

Published: December 2018

Atherosclerosis (AS) is one of the causes of cardiovascular disease. The formation of atherosclerotic lesions of the arteries is a long process, and clinical symptoms appear already at the stage of atherosclerotic plaque (ASB), which prevents blood flow and can cause coronary heart disease, as well as acute coronary syndrome. The study of atherosclerosis mechanisms at the subclinical level is relevant. This article provides a summary of current data on the structure and functions of neutrophils (NF) in physiological processes. Particular attention is paid to the participation of neutrophils in the damage and formation of vascular endothelial dysfunction. Discusses several mechanisms of involvement of neutrophils in atherogenesis: the production of reactive oxygen species, which cause direct endothelial damage; the synthesis of cytokines that trigger the migration of leukocytes in inflammation; the formation of protein complexes with cholesterol, contributing to their deposition in the vessels, and neutrophil traps, triggering destructive-alterative reactions.

Published: December 2018

ABSTRACT Cognitive impairment is very common in stroke patients and underdiagnosed. Symptoms such as language, praxis, visuospatial, visuoconstructive and memory impairment are prominent. The screening cognitive tests available do not address some specific characteristics of stroke patients and have major limitations in relation to the most impaired cognitive domains. Objective: To test the applicability of a Brazilian version of the Oxford Cognitive Screen in a convenience sample of individuals with normal cognition. Methods: Thirty neurologically healthy participants underwent the OCS-Br in this pilot study. Results: The mean score on each task was: naming: 3.4 (SD=0.72) (maximum value of 4); semantics: 3 (SD=0) (maximum 3); orientation: 4 (SD=0) (maximum 4); visual field: 4 (SD=0) (maximum 4); sentence reading: 14.53 (SD: 1) (maximum 15); number writing: 2.86 (0.6) (maximum 3); calculation: 3.8 (SD=0.48) (maximum 4); and accuracy on the broken hearts test: 47.3 (3.3) (maximum 50). The scores obtained were similar to those of the English original sample. Conclusion: We observed similar values on each separate OCS task in comparison to the original test, confirming that the Brazilian Portuguese version is comparable to other studies.
Friedrich Nietzsche e a crítica dos paradigmas culturais nas preleções da Basileia
Authors: Santini Carlotta
Published: December 2018

Resumo Quando pensamos na Grécia, o “lugar dos sonhos” (Wunsch-Ort) dos alemães, e especialmente na relação de Nietzsche com a Grécia, muitas coisas podem com razão chamar nossa atenção. Grécia pode ser interpretada de diferentes maneiras na obra de Nietzsche. Mas todos podemos talvez concordar que, para Nietzsche, o mundo grego é uma ferramenta de valor crítico insuperável. Eles são testemunhas da diferença que os separa de nós. Eles são uma alternativa cultural inalcançável (unerreichbare) e inalcançada (unerreichte), para a qual é permitido orientar-nos, mas da qual, frequentemente e mais facilmente, podemos nos separar. Nietzsche serve-se do mundo grego a fim de aprofundar a crise da cega confiança etnocêntrica do homem moderno. Como historiador e filólogo, Nietzsche usa a literatura grega para lutar contra o absolutismo científico (há apenas um mundo, apenas uma ciência, uma única ratio, a minha) do mundo moderno. Sua crítica almeja falsificar as categorias científicas modernas, prosseguindo com um estudo genealógico que deve “transvalorar” as bases da cultura ocidental moderna.

Authors: Pérez-Garcia José , Cortés Javier , Metzger Filho Otto
Published: December 2018

Background

Data on the efficacy of chemotherapy regimens in patients with advanced invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) of the breast are limited. We investigated the efficacy of single-agent eribulin for the treatment of advanced ILC when compared with invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC).

Patients and Methods

Results from the eribulin arms of two phase III studies (305 [EMBRACE] and 301) and a single-arm, phase II study were pooled. The studies involved patients with metastatic breast cancer who had previously received treatment with an anthracycline and a taxane. In all three studies, the dose of eribulin mesylate was 1.4 mg/m2 given on days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and response rates in patients with ILC were assessed and compared with data from patients with IDC.

Results

In total, 1,152 patients were included in this analysis (118 patients with ILC and 1,034 patients with IDC). Median OS was similar in patients with ILC and IDC (13.4 vs. 13.5 months; hazard ratio [HR], 1.10; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.87–1.38); as was median PFS (4.1 vs. 3.6 months; HR, 0.91; 95% CI, 0.72–1.14). There were no major differences in response rates between the two groups.

Conclusion

This retrospective analysis suggests that eribulin demonstrates similar efficacy in patients with ILC and IDC with metastatic disease who have previously received an anthracycline and a taxane.

Cracks will affect the service life of concrete, even if they are small ones. A crack healing method based on biomineralisation is presented to repair microcracks in concrete specimens. By analysing the change in permeability, adopting two different ultrasonic detection methods, and conducting unconfined compressive strength tests, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction tests, this method of repair was proved to be effective and its repair effect was evaluated. Results show that the permeability of specimens repaired using this healing method declines significantly, but samples with a crack width of 0·05 mm experience a different decreasing trend from those with crack width of 0·15 mm. The unrepaired crack depths of samples with a crack width of 0·15 mm are almost zero, and the smaller the crack widths, the larger the unrepaired crack depths. Using this healing method, samples with wider cracks (0·10 mm and 0·15 mm) are repaired more effectively and regained higher strengths. As a consequence, the healing method can repair small cracks between 0·05 mm and 0·15 mm in concrete, but wider cracks (0·10 mm and 0·15 mm) are repaired more completely and show improved effectiveness of the repair. The healing method and results of repair provide an important reference for subsequent study on the practical repair of microcracks.

Published: December 2018

Fly ash (FA)-based geopolymer mortar is known to exhibit less strength development at ambient temperature due to slow progress in the polymerisation reaction. In this paper, studies are reported on geopolymer mortar made of FA, ground-granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) and nano silica at ambient temperature. The investigations on mechanical and durability properties of FA/GGBS-based geopolymer mortar were carried out by adding nano silica at 1% and 2% weight of FA into the mixture. For all the mixtures, the concentration of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) was maintained as 3M and the sodium silicate (Na2SiO3)/sodium hydroxide weight ratio was 2·06. The alkaline liquid/binder ratio of 0·3 and ambient curing temperature (28°C) was maintained for all the mixtures. Geopolymer mortar with an addition of 2% nano silica showed significant improvement in compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and fracture properties. The water absorption, rapid chloride penetration test and sorptivity showed better resistance in mixtures with a 2% addition of nano silica. The improved properties could have been due to an enhancement of geopolymeric reaction by the addition of amorphous nano silica, which formed additional sodium aluminosilicate hydrate (Al2H2Na2O7Si) or geopolymer gel while ultrafine particles of nano silica reduced the size of empty space in the geopolymer matrix.
