Zmiany w produkcji i handlu soją w Polsce i wybranych krajach UE
Authors: Pawlak Karolina , Sowa Karolina
Published: November 2020

Ze względu na niedostatek białka paszowego z produkcji krajowej, państwa UE są znaczącymi importerami nasion i śrut z roślin strączkowych, w tym przede wszystkim soi i śruty sojowej. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie zmian w produkcji i handlu soją w wybranych krajach UE w latach 2000-2017. W badaniach wykorzystano dane wtórne pochodzące z zasobów Organizacji Narodów Zjednoczonych do spraw Wyżywienia i Rolnictwa (FAO). Omówiono zmiany w wolumenie produkcji soi w krajach jej największych producentów w UE, wartość i wolumen obrotów handlowych soją w państwach największych eksporterów i importerów, ich udziały w handlu oraz wyniki bilansu handlowego. Wolumen produkcji soi w krajach UE zwiększał się wolniej niż zapotrzebowanie na wysokobiałkowe surowce paszowe, powodując wzrost wartości przywozu soi i stawiając państwa UE w roli importerów netto tego surowca. Inaczej niż w Polsce, zwiększenie wartości przywozu nie wynikało jednak ze wzrostu jego wolumenu. Największymi importerami soi w UE były Holandia, Hiszpania i Niemcy.

As duas faces da pandemia
Authors:   Università degli Studi di Roma Tor Vergata, Itália., Brito Rose Dayanne Santos de
Published: November 2020

Este trabalho propõe narrar a fisionomia da pandemia do Covid-19, a partir da alegoria romana de Janus. A crise atual tem duas faces: o mercado e o fascismo. E possuí uma única cabeça considerando a experiência brasileira. O objetivo é refletir sobre o tempo presente aproximando história e política através da trajetória do historiador-militante, sob o ponto de vista da tradição dos oprimidos. Nos textos de W. Benjamin e de E. Thompson o inimigo comum é o fascismo. Contra essa ameaça é preciso construir núcleos de resistências pelo mundo, o presente texto demonstrará que o combate emancipador já teve início.
Onde estás? Heurística da pandemia
Authors:   Universidade do Vale do Paraíba – Univap., Gomes Cilene
Published: November 2020

Este trabalho propõe uma narração de experiência do espaço tempo social e pessoal na situação da pandemia, considerando o contexto planetário do lugar em que se vive. Espera-se dar contornos conceituais inspirados em Walter Benjamin à realidade das mutações históricas em meio à crise humano-societária de nossos dias. Na busca de designar a constelação de sentidos concernentes ancorada em um intérprete da modernidade, imagina-se poder sinalizar a uma heurística da pandemia no princípio ativo da reflexão sobre um novo humanismo e outra política para delinear novos campos teórico-empíricos e resgatar o ponto de indagação: onde estás? Para onde vamos?
Práticas docentes: paisagem, segregação e vizinhança como categorias de análise para o ensino de urbanismo
Authors: Ferretto Diego , Militelli Fernanda Amorim , Roldan Dinalva Derenzo
Published: November 2020

Este artigo tem por objetivo discutir práticas docentes no ensino do urbanismo, iluminando três categorias de análise: a leitura da paisagem, associada aos processos de urbanização; a segregação socioespacial, subsídio à apreensão da intrincada relação espaço-sociedade; e a vizinhança como uma possibilidade de intervenção urbana articulada à escala do plano urbano. A concepção do urbanismo adotada reconhece um campo interdisciplinar de conhecimento que se traduz em práticas docentes pautadas na articulação das abordagens em torno do planejamento, do projeto urbano e de paisagismo, em suas variadas escalas.
Using of partly-boundary elements as a version of the indirect near-boundary element method for potential field modeling
Authors:   Lviv Polytechnic National University, Zhuravchak L. M. , Zabrodska N. V. ,   Lviv Polytechnic National University
Published: November 2020

In this paper, the partly-boundary elements as a version of the indirect near-boundary element method has been considered. Accuracy and effectiveness of their using for 2D problems of potential theory have been investigated. It is shown that using of partly-boundary elements for objects of canonical shape (circle, square, rectangle, ellipse) and arbitrary polygons allows us to achieve the solution accuracy, which is comparable with the accuracy of the indirect near-boundary element method, and its order of magnitude is higher than in the indirect boundary element method. In this case, the computation time is reduced by 2–2.5 times than in the near-boundary element method case. The software of the proposed approach has been implemented in Python. Practical testing was carried out for the tasks of electrical profiling and vertical electrical sounding in the half-plane with inclusion as a polygon. The recommendations for application of the partly-boundary elements in geophysical practice have been given.

Published: November 2020

The vigorous motorization process is taking place in a growing number of countries year by year, and the number of people involved in road traffic is constantly increasing. The growth of the vehicle fleet and the volume of transportation lead to an increase in traffic that in the context of cities with a historical build-up leads to a traffic problem. It is particularly acute at the junctions of the road network. There is an increase in transport delays, queues, and congestion, causing reduce in speed, excessive fuel consumption, and increased wear-out of vehicle components and assemblies. These questions are constantly analyzed both in theoretical and practical terms. Today, the negative effects of motorization cannot be eliminated, and effective measures need to be developed to reduce their negative impact on the urban environment. An irrational location of public transport stops leads to a significant increase in transport delays. Respectively, the objective is to determine the optimal layout of the public transport stops on the street network, taking into account the existing and designed traffic conditions.

Nowadays, the transport industry plays an important role in human well-being and the functioning of any settlement. Transport systems are involved in almost all areas of production and services. Therefore, any failure in its operation can lead to significant material costs. One of the most important such systems is “driver - vehicle - road - environment”. It should be noted, that the main link in it is “driver”. The correctness and duration of decision-making in different road situations depend on the driver`s functional state. This directly affects the level of traffic safety. Consequently, the tasks of modern transport research are the introduction of methods of the vehicle driver`s conditions monitoring and the detection of his fatigue in its early stages. That`s why the actuality of studying the human operator role in the transport process and the creation of modern means of driving assistance are increasing now.

Badanie UBM w diagnostyce, leczeniu i prowadzeniu pacjentów z jaskrą
Authors: Jasina Grzegorz , Misiuk-Hojło Marta
Published: November 2020

Badanie ultrabiomikroskopowe to silne narzędzie diagnostyczne, które może pomóc w prowadzeniu i leczeniu wielu pacjentów. Jest szczególnie pomocne w przypadku jaskry, gdyż nie zawsze patomechanizm powstawania zmian jest znany, a uszkodzenie nerwu wzrokowego często postępuje. Będąc świadomym przyczyny, można skutecznie leczyć pacjenta. Samo badanie UBM nie może jednak zastąpić pełnego badania klinicznego, włącznie z wykonaniem gonioskopii dynamicznej. Jest ono świetnym uzupełnieniem, które może potwierdzić wiele postawionych diagnoz.

Authors: Bolek Bartłomiej , Wylęgała Edward
Published: November 2020

Cel pracy: Ocena rocznej skuteczności i bezpieczeństwa zabiegu ultradźwiękowej plastyki ciała rzęskowego w jaskrze opornej.Materiał i metody: 57 pacjentów (37 K, 20 M, średnia wieku: 67,6 roku) z jaskrą pierwotną i wtórną otwartego kąta poddano zabiegowi. Kryteriami włączenia były: wiek powyżej 18. r.ż., niekontrolowana jaskra otwartego kąta (ciśnienie wewnątrzgałkowe > 21 mmHg), przeciwwskazania do zabiegu klasycznego, nietolerancja leków. Kryteriami wyłączenia były: ciąża, niepełnoletniość, ciśnienie wewnątrzgałkowe > 30 mmHg, jaskra zamykającego się kąta lub neowaskularna. Pełne badanie okulistyczne przeprowadzono przed zabiegiem oraz dzień, tydzień, miesiąc, 3 miesiące, 6 miesięcy i 12 miesięcy po zabiegu. Ciśnienie wewnątrzgałkowe badano za pomocą tonometrii aplanacyjnej Goldmanna. Za skuteczność leczenia przyjęto obniżenie ciśnienia wewnątrzgałkowego o 20% lub o ponad 5 mmHg w stosunku do pomiaru wyjściowego (sukces częściowy) oraz całkowite odstawienie leków przeciwjaskrowych (sukces całkowity).Wyniki: Średnia wartość ciśnienia wewnątrzgałkowego została obniżona o 26,9% na ostatniej wizycie w porównaniu z wartością sprzed operacji. Sukces częściowy uzyskano w przypadku 87,7% oczu, a sukces całkowity w przypadku 12,3% oczu. Średnia liczba leków przeciwjaskrowych wyniosła odpowiednio: 4,0 ± 0,9, 0,9 ± 1,1, 0,9 ± 1,1, 1,1 ± 1,1, 1,8 ± 1,4, 2,1 ± 1,4, 2,4 ± 1,4 (p < 0,001 dla wszystkich wartości). Średnia wartość najlepszej skorygowanej ostrości wzroku ± SD wyniosła odpowiednio: 0,37 ± 0,46, 0,47 ± 0,45 (p = 0,003), 0,46 ± 0,45 (p = 0,004), 0,31 ± 0,37 (p = 0,151), 0,36 ± 0,45 (p = 0,880), 0,39 ± 0,47 (p = 0,504). Nie odnotowano poważnych powikłań poza odłączeniem naczyniówki (5,3%) i obrzękiem plamki (3,5%).Wnioski: Ultradźwiękowa plastyka ciała rzęskowego jest metodą skuteczną i bezpieczną w obserwacji średnioterminowej. Dalsze badania na większej grupie powinny być prowadzone w dłuższym okresie obserwacji.
Zastosowanie leków anty-VEGF w leczeniu retinopatii wcześniaków
Authors: Hautz Wojciech
Published: November 2020

Retinopatia wcześniaków jest poważnym schorzeniem siatkówki, mogącym doprowadzić do jej odwarstwienia i w konsekwencji do utraty widzenia. W patogenezie tej choroby kluczową rolę odgrywają wytwarzane w nadmiarze naczyniowo- śródbłonkowe czynniki wzrostu (VEGF, vascular endothelial growth factors). Złotym standardem leczenia jest wciąż stosowana od lat 90. XX w. laserowa fotokoagulacja obwodowej nieunaczynionej siatkówki. Wprowadzone w ostatnich latach leki anty-VEGF podawane w postaci iniekcji do ciała szklistego neutralizują wytworzone w nadmiarze czynniki VEGF. Podstawowymi zaletami tych leków są: bardzo szybkie działanie, bardzo krótka i nieskomplikowana procedura podania oraz spodziewane pełne pole widzenia. Leki są jednak wchłaniane do krwiobiegu, co może zaburzać fizjologiczne dojrzewanie narządów wewnętrznych u dziecka urodzonego przedwcześnie. Innym ważnym problemem jest pojawienie się późnych wznów retinopatii, nawet kilka miesięcy po iniekcji. Leki te powinny być stosowane rozważnie, przede wszystkim u pacjentów z retinopatią w I strefie.
A submissão à regra do estado de exceção
Authors: Cani Luiz Eduardo
Published: November 2020

Neste artigo trata-se do estado de exceção por uma entrada diversa: a submissão à regra do estado de exceção, mencionada por Walter Benjamin, isto é, a captura psíquica, o condicionamento de indivíduos e populações ao estado de exceção. O problema de pesquisa foi: por que há submissão à regra do estado de exceção, refletida no direito processual? Para responder ao problema de pesquisa, dividiu-se o texto em três tópicos, cada qual a fim de atingir um objetivo específico: (a) definir estado de exceção; (b) compreender as formas de cooptação através das relações de poder; e (c) explorar a submissão ao estado de exceção nas relações de poder que atravessam o direito processual em uma leitura ao avesso de Portas Abertas. O método de abordagem foi o indutivo, partindo-se da análise das especificidades do tema para formular uma conclusão. Consultou-se fontes de pesquisa secundárias, sobretudo livros. A pesquisa foi bibliográfica de caráter qualitativo.

Published: November 2020

O vírus da dengue é um arbovírus da família dos flavivírus. Há quatro tipos de vírus: DEN (1, 2, 3 e 4), sendo o DEN3 o mais grave. É transmitido pelo Aedes aegypti. As formas clínicas são: a Dengue Clássica, Dengue com Complicações e a Febre Hemorrágica da Dengue. O Brasil é responsável por 70% dos casos da doença nas Américas. O objetivo deste trabalho foram demarcar as localidades que apresentam o maior número de casos de dengue correlacionando com dados pluviométricos no estado de São Paulo no período de 2015 a 2016. A prevalência foi calculada nos munícipios que registraram os maiores números de casos associados aos índices pluviométricos. Para edição de mapas foi utilizado o programa Q GIS 2.18. O estado de São Paulo foi o que apresentou o maior número de casos no país no período de 2015 a 2016 (1.688.688). As maiores prevalências relacionadas com os dados pluviométricos foram registradas em Onda Verde (17.989,9/1445,9mm); São Paulo (17.965,9/1819,4mm); Rio Claro (10.804,7/1435,0mm); Catanduva (8.915,2); Sorocaba (8.815,6/1476,3mm) e Campinas (5.766,2/1793,5mm). Os municípios com os maiores números de casos registrados foram: Onda Verde, São Paulo, Rio Claro, Catanduva, Sorocaba e Campinas. A associação entre a pluviosidade e sorotipo viral provavelmente colaboraram para a elevada prevalência da doença em 2015. Naquele ano a região Sudeste apresentou uma crise hídrica e as pessoas armazenaram água das chuvas em recipientes improvisados aumentando assim a oferta de criadouros do mosquito. Desta forma é muito importante que ocorra o incremento das políticas públicas de prevenção e a conscientização da população ao respeito de medidas para prevenção de criadouros do mosquito vetor.

Capacidad de retención de hidrocarburos del endocarpio de coco en aguas aceitosas
Authors:   Innova Scientific SAC, Lima, Perú, Marín-Velásquez Tomás Darío , Cóndor-Salvatierra Edwin Julio ,   Universidad Nacional de Barranca, Barranca, Perú
Published: November 2020

En la investigación se evaluó el uso de un material filtrante, a base de endocarpio o cáscara de coco (Cocos nucifera) de forma granular, para el tratamiento de aguas contaminadas con gasoil de petróleo a nivel de laboratorio. Se construyó un sistema de filtros con tubos PVC y se empacaron con el endocarpio luego de ser triturado hasta un diámetro de 2 mm. Se utilizaron cinco cantidades de material filtrante (75, 105, 135, 150 y 165 g) y tres concentraciones de gasoil en agua (5, 10 y 15 %). Las muestras de agua contaminada se dejaron fluir a través de los filtros de forma descendente por acción gravitacional y a cada filtrado se le determinó la cantidad de aceites y grasas (AyG), mediante normas internacionales. Los resultados se analizaron estadísticamente mediante ANOVA factorial y test de mínima diferencia significativa de Fisher. Los análisis estadísticos demostraron que existe influencia significativa de los dos factores (% gasoil y cantidad de material filtrante) sobre la variable respuesta en estudio (AyG) con un nivel de confianza de 95 %. Se demostró que el endocarpio de coco con el tamaño de granos utilizado, es efectivo para la remoción de hidrocarburos en el agua, logrando porcentajes de remoción de 85.10, 84.23 y 82.10 %. Se obtuvo que a mayor cantidad del material filtrante, mayor es el grado de remoción con resultados estadísticamente significativos.

Currently, cities, productive areas and the environment are more at risk of natural or anthropogenic hazards than ever before, causing human and economic losses. In cities, hydrometeorological events have the greatest socioeconomic impact according to the United Nations, which is further exacerbated by the fact that some cities do not have the appropriate mechanisms to minimize the impacts of these phenomena. This is why it is necessary to make them safer and more dynamic so that they might have the capacity to constantly adapt to changes. To address this vulnerability issue present in cities, the concept of urban resilience has been created. It is a tool to aid public officials’ decision making process when choosing government works to be invested in from among many different structural and non-structural strengthening options for resilience. Before developing strategies within government agendas, however, it is necessary to identify a city’s strengths and weaknesses in order to know it’s resilience level. This paper proposes a methodology to assess the resilience level of a city to hydrometeorological hazards, called the City Resilience Index (CRI), that is based on two assessment tools: one quantitative, called the Technical Resilience Index and the other, which is called the Technical Profile of Resilience, is a qualitative analysis of the characteristics of the city. For this analysis the city of Cuernavaca, Mexico, was selected as a case study. Index results were generated from the City Resilience Index (CRI) computer program, created expressly for the application of this methodology, which gave a 45.52% resilience rating to the city of Cuernavaca, a medium-range level of resilience.

La inclusión de los análisis ecotoxicológicos en los estudios ambientales resulta indispensable ya que aporta información sobre los efectos que los contaminantes puedan causar en los organismos expuestos y en los ecosistemas receptores. El objetivo del trabajo fue evaluar la calidad del agua en la cuenca del arroyo Cañuelas (Buenos Aires, Argentina) a partir de determinaciones fisicoquímicas y de bioensayos ecotoxicológicos estandarizados en diferentes niveles tróficos con los organismos: Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, Lactuca sativa y Caenorhabditis elegans. Las muestras fueron extraídas de cuatro puntos de muestreo representativos a lo largo del cauce de los arroyos Cañuelas y Navarrete. P. subcapitata y la raíz de L. sativa presentaron los valores más altos de inhibición del crecimiento en los puntos de muestreo coincidentes con un mayor deterioro de la calidad del agua de acuerdo con los niveles propuestos por la normativa local. Contrariamente, C. elegans reveló toxicidad en muestras cuyos parámetros fisicoquímicos cumplieron con la normativa vigente. Los resultados de este trabajo respaldan la necesidad de incorporar una batería de bioensayos ecotoxicológicos que complementen los análisis fisicoquímicos y contribuyan a una mejor gestión de los recursos hídricos.

El objetivo que se persigue con el presente artículo es explorar los factores que están asociados a la disposición a pagar para mejorar la calidad del agua en la ciudad mexicana de Zapopan, Jalisco. Se lleva a cabo una encuesta a cuatrocientos hogares que arroja que los consultados toman agua embotellada (99%), consideran que el agua suministrada huele mal (53%) y que está contaminada (69%), temen por su salud o la de sus familiares por beber del grifo (74%) pero estarían dispuestos a tomar agua del mismo si la calidad mejorara (77%). Sin embargo, más de la mitad no estaría dispuesto a pagar más por mejorar la calidad del agua o pagaría no más de 40 pesos (31 y 22% respectivamente). A través de un modelo logit ordenado se encuentra que existe una relación significativa y positiva entre la disposición a pagar por mejorar la calidad del agua y estar abierto a tomar agua del grifo si esto sucede, a percibir que las autoridades encargadas del sector agua hacen lo correcto, a una creencia de escasez de agua en la colonia, a tener personas con problemas de salud en casa y al nivel de ingresos. Por otro lado, mayor disposición de pago se relaciona negativa y significativamente con la percepción de que el agua huela mal, el nivel de confianza en los otros y la edad.

En los ecosistemas forestales el balance de energía, el ciclo del agua y el ciclo del carbono se encuentran vinculados a través del proceso de evapotranspiración. La evapotranspiración es altamente variable en espacio y tiempo y está controlada por numerosos factores biofísicos. El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar la variabilidad estacional de la evapotranspiración e identificar los principales factores que influyen en dicho proceso. El método de eddy covariance se utilizó para medir los flujos de calor sensible y calor latente (equivalente a evapotranspiración) en un bosque bajo manejo forestal, ubicado en la región forestal de Zacualtipán, Hidalgo. Simultáneamente se midió la radiación neta, el flujo de calor del suelo, el contenido de agua en el suelo y otros parámetros meteorológicos. A lo largo del periodo analizado, la proporción de la radiación neta con los flujos de calor latente y calor sensible fue similar la mayor parte del tiempo. La evapotranspiración total anual observada fue de 980 mm. Ésta fue menor en el periodo de “nortes" y no se encontraron diferencias significativas entre el periodo de lluvias y el de secas. La temperatura, humedad del suelo, radiación neta y déficit de presión de vapor explicaron la mayor parte de la variabilidad de la evapotranspiración. Se recomienda realizar estudios posteriores que involucren el análisis de la productividad del ecosistema y eficiencia en el uso del agua, para comprender mejor los procesos del ecosistema e identificar prácticas apropiadas para el manejo forestal sostenible.
El monólogo como práctica dramatúrgica feminista en los años ochenta: el ejemplo de Maribel Lázaro (La fosa y La defensa)
Authors:   Universidad Complutense de Madrid (Españ), Coello Hernández Alejandro
Published: November 2020

The visibility and recognition of Women playwrights in Spanish theater did not occur until the eighties after the conquests of feminist movements. For that reason, women playwrights explore in their works new ways of thinking about subjectivity. The monologue provides them with a way of exploring themselves and with a form of engaged theater. This textual corpus is studied in this article in a global way in order to contextualize feminist dramaturgies and in particular the dramatic proposals of Maribel Lázaro, who in 1986 wrote two monologues La fosa [The pit] and La defensa [The defense]. Therefore, we analyze the terminological problem around the concept of «monologue». Moreover, we reflect on the dramatic structure in which the denunciation, self-recognition and negation of the discourse of the female character coexist in a paradox that opens the path to a consolidation of the feminist theater in Spain.
Para una «operación feminista»: la revuelta en los límites de la eficacidad colonia
Authors:   Université Paris 8 (Francia), Souyris Oporto Lorena t
Published: November 2020

This article seeks to propose the notion of revolt as a category of analysis to examine the feminist movement that occurred in May 2018 in Chile. In this sense, from this notion, it will be asked how the colonial efficiency, inscribed in the hetero/racial and oppressive memory of Latin America, can be interrupted by a “feminist operation” evidencing the intersections between power, language, violence and domination. All this to try to show that this has implied the norms in the institutions and that they have been applied at the level of the discourse, the representations and their practices in differents political/cultural and institutional spheres in Chile. To this end, the voices of Chilean women activists of the revolt will be taken to address the issue: how the revolt, as a feminist action to disrupt the patriarchal order, can lift up a practice of emancipation?

Objetivo: Descrever a abordagem a um paciente politraumatizado com fratura do osso pélvico submetido a hemipelvectomia esquerda no Hospital de Referência em uma cidade do Tocantins. Relato de caso: Paciente de 27 anos, sexo feminino, vítima de colisão entre caminhonete e motocicleta em via pública, em uso de capacete. Foi admitida na sala de emergência com a escala de coma de Glasgow 13, fratura exposta de fêmur, pulsos ausentes, pele fria, instabilidade pélvica e choque hipovolêmico. Foi submetida à hemipelvectomia mista esquerda, à desarticulação do quadril, colostomia, traqueostomia e cirurgia plástica, apresentou boa evolução pós-operatória. Após estabilidade clínica, realizou-se fechamento da colostomia e traqueostomia. Atualmente a paciente segue em acompanhamento ambulatorial, aguardando prótese oferecida pelo SUS. Considerações finais: A hemipelvectomia é um procedimento pouco usual e causador de importantes limitações funcionais e comorbidades. No caso relatado, a evolução do paciente foi satisfatória e como há poucos casos de pelvectomia traumática na literatura. Os resultados obtidos com a pesquisa serviram como experiência para uma futura condução segura no atendimento de vítimas de politrauma.

Resultados: Nota-se que o valor médio de consultas de puericultura corresponde apenas a 6,5% das que deveriam ocorrer anualmente. Dentre os menores de 1 ano e entre 12-23 meses observa-se poucas com calendário vacinal atualizado, baixo acompanhamento do peso, alta mortalidade por desnutrição e pneumonia, baixa prevalência do aleitamento materno exclusivo e muitas internações por infecções respiratórias. Conclusão: Implantação da puericultura trouxe resultados positivos ao avaliar a saúde infantil no Brasil. Porém muitas Unidades Básicas de Saúde não usam tal ferramenta adequadamente, o que prejudica a melhora dos indicadores de saúde infantil e mortalidade, tornando assim um país heterogéneo que é evidenciado em diversos estudos já realizados. Concernente a isto, evidenciou-se que no Acre também há uma diversidade entre seus Municípios e que, Rio Branco como capital, ainda deixa a desejar no quesito de cobertura da puericultura, sendo muito aquém do ideal.

Published: November 2020

Objectives:

Computed tomography pulmonary angiogram (CTPA) is one of the most commonly ordered and frequently overused tests. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the mean radiation dose to patients getting CTPA and to identify factors that are associated with higher dose.

Material and Methods:

This institutionally approved retrospective study included all patients who had a CTPA to rule out acute pulmonary embolism between 2016 and 2018 in a tertiary care center. Patient data (age, sex, body mass index [BMI], and patient location), CT scanner type, image reconstruction methodology, and radiation dose parameters (dose-length product [DLP]) were recorded. Effective dose estimates were obtained by multiplying DLP by conversion coefficient (0.014 mSv•mGy−1•cm−1). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the factors affecting the radiation dose.

Results:

There were 2342 patients (1099 men and 1243 women) with a mean age of 58.1 years (range 0.2–104.4 years) and BMI of 31.3 kg/m2 (range 12–91.5 kg/m2). The mean effective radiation dose was 5.512 mSv (median – 4.27 mSv; range 0.1–43.0 mSv). Patient factors, including BMI >25 kg/m2, male sex, age >18 years, and intensive care unit (ICU) location, were associated with significantly higher dose (P < 0.05). CT scanning using third generation dual-source scanner with model-based iterative reconstruction (IR) had significantly lower dose (mean: 4.90 mSv) versus single-source (64-slice) scanner with filtered back projection (mean: 9.29 mSv, P < 0.001).

Conclusion:

Patients with high BMI and ICU referrals are associated with high CT radiation dose. They are most likely to benefit by scanning on newer generation scanner using advance model-based IR techniques.
Effect of coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic on case volume, spectrum, and perioperative coronavirus disease 2019 incidence in neurosurgical patients: An experience at a tertiary care center in India
Authors: Sharma Anil Kumar , Gandhoke Charandeep Singh , Nayak Nitish
Published: November 2020

Background:

The volume and spectrum of neurosurgical procedures being performed during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic have significantly changed as compared to the pre-COVID-19 period. The objective of this study is to examine this change and draw useful conclusions.

Methods:

We collected data retrospectively of all patients who attended outpatient clinics and who were operated at our institute under the department of neurosurgery from October 23, 2019, to August 23, 2020. These data were then divided into two groups (pre-COVID period and during the COVID pandemic) and compared.

Results:

Out of the 388 surgeries performed, 284 surgeries were performed during the pre-COVID period, and 104 surgeries were performed during the COVID pandemic. During this ongoing COVID pandemic, the total number of surgeries performed by the department of neurosurgery decreased significantly by 63.38%, the proportion of routine surgeries performed decreased from 50.35% to 19.23% and the proportion of minor cases increased from 19.72% to 30.77%. The Outpatient Clinic Workflow decreased by 72.3% as compared to the pre-COVID period, and the perioperative COVID-19 reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction positive incidence in our neurosurgical patients was 11.71%.

Conclusion:

This paper highlights the drastic reduction in the operative workflow and the outpatient clinic workflow during the ongoing corona pandemic which will have significant collateral damages in the long run. We will have to strike the right balance between providing our patients with the best medical treatment while limiting the spread of the COVID-19 infection.

Authors: Ghencea Flavia , Drumea Mihnea Claudiu
Published: November 2020

The general concept of non-territorial autonomy is analyzed in the specialized doctrine from various perspectives - considered, in fact, as its attributes – such as, cultural, linguistic, educational, traditional and religious perspectives- all considering the identity of the minority group that lives in a majority community.The present paper, part of a larger research, proposes, on the one hand, an analysis of the legal framework regarding non-territorial autonomy in Romania - from the perspective of the regulations regarding the establishment, organization and functioning of the authorities with their role in the elections and the administrative structures at a local level and, whilst considering the role played by the minority groups in this framework. According to the recently adopted New Administrative Code with big impact on minorities’ lives, another purpose of this research is to track how they are applied to the provisions on the linguistic rights of the national minorities included in Local Public Administrative Regulation. The objectives of this research will be, to use the data obtained in national reports and secondly, to making recommendations on the most efficient way in which the legislative norms regarding the protection of minorities can be applied, focusing on costs, human and financial resources
A new family of kernels from the beta polynomial kernels with applications in density estimation
Authors: Siloko Israel Uzuazor , Nwankwo Wilson , Siloko Edith Akpevwe
Published: November 2020

One of the fundamental data analytics tools in statistical estimation is the non-parametric kernel method that involves probability estimates production. The method uses the observations to obtain useful statistical information to aid the practicing statistician in decision making and further statistical investigations. The kernel techniques primarily examine essential characteristics in a data set, and this research aims to introduce new kernel functions that can easily detect inherent properties in any given observations. However, accurate application of kernel estimator as data analytics apparatus requires the kernel function and smoothing parameter that regulates the level of smoothness applied to the estimates. A plethora of kernel functions of different families and smoothing parameter selectors exist in the literature, but no one method is universally acceptable in all situations. Hence, more kernel functions with smoothing parameter selectors have been propounded customarily in density estimation. This article proposes a distinct kernel family from the beta polynomial kernel family using the exponential progression in its derivation. The newly proposed kernel family was evaluated with simulated and life data. The outcomes clearly indicated that this kernel family could compete favorably well with other kernel families in density estimation. A further comparison of numerical results of the new family and the existing beta family revealed that the new family outperformed the classical beta kernel family with simulation and real data examples with the aid of asymptotic mean integrated squared error (AMISE) as criterion function. The information obtained from the data analysis of this research could be used for decision making in an organization, especially when human and material resources are to be considered. In addition, Kernel functions are vital tools for data analysis and data visualization; hence the newly proposed functions are vital exploratory tools.

Authors: Dardiri Ahmad , Dwiyanto Felix Andika , Utama Agung Bella Putra
Published: November 2020

Computational methods have been used extensively to solve problems in the education sector. This paper aims to explore the computational method's recent implementation in solving global Vocational education and training (VET) problems. The study used a systematic literature review to answer specific research questions by identifying, assessing, and interpreting all available research shreds of evidence. The result shows that researchers use the computational method to predict various cases in VET. The most popular methods are ANN and Naïve Bayes. It has significant potential to develop because VET has a very complex problem of (a) curriculum, (b) apprenticeship, (c) matching labor market, and (d) attracting enrollment. In the future, academics may have broad overviews of the use of the computational method in VET. A computer scientist may use this study to find more efficient and intelligent solutions for VET issues.
Paths to the Market: analysing tourism distribution channels for community-based tourism - ARTICLE OF THE YEAR 2018
Authors: Schott Christian , Nhem Sochea
Published: November 2020

This
research investigates distribution channels as a critical business mechanism
for community-based tourism (CBT) by connecting CBT projects with the
market. Specifically, it examines the
distribution channels structure of a culture & heritage focused CBT project
in Cambodia, explores the key influencing factors behind the observed structure,
and develops recommendations for improved economic sustainability. The paper is informed by 21 interviews which
were conducted with respondents from Banteay Chhmar CBT, key private sector
businesses, NGOs, local and central government, and CBT experts. The examination of the distribution channel
structure reveals considerable channel diversity which sees both direct and a
variety of indirect channels included in the distribution mix. Due to the community-guided nature of the CBT
project, intermediaries had a very strong presence in the distribution
structure and maintained both direct and multi-layered indirect channels with
consumers. Five factors were identified
to underlie the observed distribution structure: commissionable product,
product characteristics and market access, information and communication
technology, partnership issues, and community capacity. Based on these findings a range of recommendations
are proposed that seek to improve the distribution channels related economic
sustainability of the CBT project.

Exploring a Tiriti-based superdiversity paradigm within early childhood care and education in Aotearoa New Zealand
Authors: Chan Angel , Ritchie Jenny
Published: November 2020

This article reports findings from a study that used a process of document analysis to examine early childhood care and education responses to increasing superdiversity in the ‘bicultural’ legislative context of Aotearoa New Zealand. The New Zealand Education Review Office has described both Indigenous Māori children and ‘children of migrants and refugees’ as ‘vulnerable’ and ‘priority learners’. This article uses the lenses of Te Tiriti o Waitangi (Indigenous rights) and Steven Vertovec’s superdiversity approach to examine the implications of representations of the Indigenous Māori and the settler population in early childhood care and education in Aotearoa New Zealand. It further applies Sara Ahmed’s diversity work on a phenomenology of whiteness to scrutinise the New Zealand government’s commitments to supporting its nation’s ‘priority learners’.

Modern choreological concepts of the origin of the dance «hopak»
Authors:   Lesya Ukrainka Eastern European National University, Ukraine, Kinder Karyna
Published: November 2020

The purpose of the article is to review the art-based approaches to the study of the historical origins and features of the Hopak dance and to analyze the semantics of its plastic symbols. The methodology. The application of the analytical principle in the study of art, philosophical, cultural approaches to delineated topics, as well as historical - in the examination of the genesis and development of Ukrainian choreographic art, made it possible to conduct a scientifically objective study. The scientific novelty of the work is that for the first time a comprehensive art study of the historical origins of the Hopak dance and the semantics of its autochthonous plastic forms were conducted. Examples of the interpretation of the name of the dance, recorded in explanatory, terminological, etymological dictionaries, are given. The paper reviews the controversy of the given subject, when considering which the author provides own point of view within the context of a number of statements made by Serhii Nalyvaiko, a studier of Indo-Slavo-Ukrainian mythology and history. Conclusions. The conducted analysis of scientific literature on the investigated subject revealed the absence of theoretical developments on the problems of semantics of choreographic plastics, compositional constructions and images of Ukrainian folk dance «Hopak». Outside the field of attention of researchers are historical and cultural foundations of the development of Ukrainian folk dance in the sense of its figurative and symbolic content. The work emphasizes: Hopak, being a symbolic code of archaic culture, adequately understood by all members of society, was later transformed into a kind of informational «ethnic code» of the nation, enabling the reconstruction of lost and forgotten folk traditions.
