Authors: Stasiak Gisele Regina , Weber Lidia Natalia Dobrianskyj
Published: July 2019

O professor pode atuar, em sua interação cotidiana, com seu aluno, promovendo suas habilidades sociais e prevenindo seus problemas de comportamento. Nessa direção, foram avaliados os impactos de um programa de intervenção universal em grupo, o Incredible years teacher classroom management. Participaram seis professoras de três escolas de educação infantil. Os instrumentos foram: (a) Inventário de boas práticas (Vale,

2011), (b) Escala de comportamentos sociais de pré-escolares (Merrell, 2002), (c) Questionário de avaliação do workshop (Webster-Stratton, 2012), (d) Questionário de avaliação do programa (Webster-Stratton, 2012) e (e) o programa IY TCM (Webster-Stratton, 2012). Constataram-se diferenças significativas entre pré e pós-teste (p < 0,05) tanto em relação às estratégias de gestão de sala de aula das participantes quanto nas habilidades sociais e problemas de comportamentos das crianças. O programa IY TCM apresentou fortes evidências científicas positivas às professoras da educação infantil ao fortalecer e promover os fatores de proteção ao desenvolvimento infantil.
Adaptação da Children’s automatic thoughts scale negative/positive (Cats-N/P) para crianças e adolescentes portugueses
Authors: Moura Cynthia Borges de , Sá Isabel , Santos Isabel
Published: July 2019

Esta investigação tem como objetivos estudar as propriedades psicométricas da adaptação portuguesa da Children’s Automatic Thoughts Scale Negative/Positive (Cats-N/P) (Hogendoorn et al., 2010) e identificar diferenças, em função da idade e do sexo, no conteúdo dos pensamentos automáticos. Os dados foram obtidos em uma amostra não clínica de 330 crianças e adolescentes, entre os 10 e os 19 anos. A Cats-N/P apresentou uma estrutura de cinco fatores (visão negativa de si, ameaça social, pensamentos positivos, ameaça física e hostilidade) e boas consistências internas. Os resultados sugerem validade divergente e convergente: os jovens que reportam mais pensamentos positivos apresentam maior satisfação com a vida, ocorrendo o inverso nos jovens com mais pensamentos de visão negativa de si. Não se verificaram diferenças entre os grupos etários no conteúdo dos pensamentos automáticos; no entanto os pensamentos positivos são mais frequentes nos rapazes, e os pensamentos de visão negativa de si mais frequentes nas meninas.
Introduction: From Concord to Peace
Authors: Benjamin Andrew , Borghesi Francesco
Published: July 2019

This special issue arose from a workshop on “Peace and Concord from Plato to Lessing”, organised by the editors and which took place at the University of Sydney on 18 and 19 September 2017. Central to the work of both the editors is the relationship between the concepts of ‘concord’, ‘peace’ and ‘dignity’ within a setting created by a concern with the development of a philological anthropology. Their work combines both intellectual history and philosophy, a combination that is reflected in the contents of the special issue of Theoria. The importance of these terms is that they allow for another interpretation of the ethical and the political. Central to both is the location of human being within a larger cultural context. That context demands an approach in which philosophy does not exclude
history, and history recognises that it is already informed philosophically. If there is a unifying term, it is ‘culture’. The approach taken within the larger project starts with the centrality of culture as that which demands to be thought. And yet culture is neither tranquil nor unified. As Walter Benjamin argued, there ‘is no document of culture which is not at the same time a document of barbarism’. Allowing for culture’s centrality entails a reconfiguration of both philosophy and intellectual history.

U radu se, prvi put u kroatističkom, ali i općelingvističkom kontekstu, usporedno prikazuju tematski i razradbeni okviri dvaju po mnogočemu oprečnih jezikoslovnih časopisa (Naš jezik, Beograd, i Hrvatski jezik, Zagreb) potkraj 30-ih godina prošloga stoljeća u kojima se zrcali težnja jezičnomu unitarizmu beogradskoga časopisa s jedne strane i jezikoslovno utemeljen otpor takvim nastojanjima s hrvatske strane. Jezikoslovni članci objavljeni u Hrvatskom jeziku (1938. – 1939.) i oni u Našem jeziku pokazuju sasvim suprotna opredjeljenja dvaju jezikoslovnih centara. Časopisni su suradnici Hrvatskoga jezika (1938. – 1939.) u svojim radovima nastojali isticati hrvatske posebnosti i tako očuvati prirodan razvoj hrvatskoga književnog jezika (usuprot nasilnomu ujedinjavanju na svim jezičnim razinama), a suradnici Našega jezikau svojim su temama uglavnom težili postizanju čistoće našega jezika (pritom misleći na srpski jezik), a ta je čistoća podrazumijevala odbacivanje brojnih hrvatskih jezičnih posebnosti u cilju postizanja jedinstva.

Published: July 2019

The beginning of Neurosurgery is not very new in Bangladesh. Prof.Rashiduddin Ahmed established the first Neurosurgery unit in the then Institute of Postgraduate Medical Research (IPGMR) with only six beds in 1970. The first generation neurosurgeons left the field of neurosurgery in the safe hands of their disciples. There was a rapid progression of neurosurgery further both in private and in government level after 2000.In 1997 the first MS (Neurosurgery) course was started in IPGMR which was replaced by a 5-year residency course under Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) in 2010. Till now over 154 candidates are the active members of Bangaldesh Society of Neurosurgeons and are practicing independent neurosurgery. It is a very popular course and at present there are about 89 residents in various phases of the course in 4 institutions under BSMMU. With the available investigations, diagnostic facilities, operative facilities and good neuroanesthesia; now neurosurgeons also developed their skills in vascular neurosurgery, pediatric neurosurgery, endoscopic neurosurgery, spinal stabilization procedures, stereotactic neurosurgery and stem cell therapy. We are also hopeful that, very soon we would be able to achieve and develop our standard of neurosurgery to an international level by our determination and continuous effort, and by suitable and update learning, teaching and training.

Authors: Islam Md Rokibul , Islam KM Tarikul , Rahman Moshiur , Hossain Mohammad , Haque Raziul , Hosain ATM Mosharef
Published: July 2019

Purpose: Intracranial gliomas are not uncommon in our country. The therapeutic management and prognosis in patients with gliomas depend on the reliable distinction between high and low-grade gliomas. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether any association exists between various individual MR imaging features and histopathologically determined tumor grade of intracranial gliomas. Our target was to explore whether MRI could enable correct determination the grading of gliomas which will help early diagnosis, staging, grade assessing, determining the appropriate treatment, preoperative planning for surgical resection and post operative management plan.
Materials and Methods: It was a cross sectional type of observational study. This study was conducted on 44 cases of intracranial gliomas. Only patients having histopathologically proven intracranial gliomas who underwent surgery or stereotactic biopsy were considered as a study population.
Results: The present study revealed that there is significant association between the MR imaging features and histopathological grading of intracranial gliomas. Contrast enhancement in MRI showed most significant (p<0.001). Other significant MR imaging features were peritumoral edema (p=0.001), tumor border definition (p=0.001), necrosis or cystic change of tumor (p=0.001) and mass effect (p=0.003). In this study preoperative MRI diagnosis was correct in 39 patients with accuracy of 88.6%. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of MRI in detecting tumor grade were 86.4%, 90.9%, 90.5% and 87% respectively.
Conclusion: MRI is sensitive, specific and accurate in assessing the grade of gliomas. Contrast enhancement is the most important predictor. Peritumoral edema, tumor border definition, mass effect and necrosis/cystic changes of tumor are also important indicators of tumor grade.

Resumo: Este artigo tem como objetivo identificar as inovações do Estatuto da Pessoa com Deficiência em relação as alterações provocadas no Código de Processo Civil no Instituto da Curatela. Com a assinatura da Convenção sobre os Direitos das Pessoas com Deficiência e seu Protocolo Facultativo, assinada em Nova Iorque em 30/03/2007, a linha tratada por este regime rumou na direção dos princípios da igualdade e da não discriminação. A origem da lei brasileira de inclusão da pessoa com Deficiência (Lei nº. 13.146/2015), denominada de Estatuto da Pessoa com Deficiência trouxe mudanças significativas em institutos inerentes ao Direito Civil, tais como a capacidade civil, e tomada de decisão apoiada. Todavia com o intuito de tornar perceptível a preocupação da Lei em conferir tratamento digno e humanizado, este regimento nada mais fez do que abandonar o princípio de que todos os deficientes eram considerados incapazes para a vida civil. Desse modo, a perspectiva da nova legislação é com a dignidade, inclusão e autonomia da pessoa humana em relação a interdição (curatela) uma vez que, o interditado passa a ser uma pessoa considerada legalmente capaz.

INTERDICTION OF THE WITH DEFICIENCY PERSON IN RELATION AN CURATELA OF THE NEW CIVIL PROCESS CODE

Abstract: This article aims to identify the innovations of the Statute of the Person with Disabilities in relation to the changes provoked in the Code of Civil Procedure in the Institute of Curatela. With the signing of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and its Optional Protocol, signed in New York on 03/30/2007, the line covered by this regime has moved towards the principles of equality and non-discrimination. The origin of the Brazilian law on the inclusion of persons with disabilities (Law No. 13,146 / 2015), called the Statute of the Person with Disabilities, brought significant changes in institutes inherent to Civil Law, such as civil capacity, and decision making supported. However, in order to make evident the concern of the Law to confer dignified and humanized treatment, this regiment did nothing more than abandon the principle that all the disabled were considered incapable of civil life. Thus, the perspective of the new legislation is with the dignity, inclusion and autonomy of the human person in relation to interdiction (curatela) since, the prohibited one becomes a person considered legally capable.

Keywords: Status of person with disabilities. Incapable Protection. Human Dignity. Decision Making Supported.
ACCOUNTABILITY JUDICIAL NA JUSTIÇA CRIMINAL: TRANSPARÊNCIA A SERVIÇO DA POPULAÇÃO
Authors: Novelli Rodrigo Fernando , Da Silva Ricardo Murilo
Published: July 2019

A prestação de contas por parte dos poderes do Estado, com políticas de transparência que são estudadas como formas de contribuir para a conversação entre o Estado e a sociedade, onde aquele possa atender os interesses dessa. Na seara do direito criminal, tal fato não é diferente, haja vista que a população vive em sentimento de desconfiança com o Estado e, mais relevante para esse estudo, para com a efetividade do Poder Judiciário, gerando, assim, uma sensação de impunidade. Objetiva-se com essa pesquisa demonstrar a importância de haver uma prestação de contas de processos julgados na justiça criminal. Para isso buscou-se desenvolver o conceito de accountability, abordar o que gera a sensação de impunidade, e, por fim, tratar da importância de dar publicidade efetiva da aplicação da lei penal à população. Demonstrar-se-á o quão importante é a publicidade efetiva, informando a realidade dos fatos, para que a população tenha seu sentimento diminuído, ao menos no que tange ao Poder Judiciário, podendo, dessa forma, como forma de participação, requisitar investimentos em outras áreas mais essenciais à resolução de casos criminais, como a investigação policial.

Employment of Persons with Disabilities as Competitive Advantage: An Analysis of the Competitive Implications
Authors: Miethlich Boris , Oldenburg Anett
Published: July 2019

People with disabilities (PWD) represent a largely untapped market and customer segment worldwide, as well as an enormous untapped workforce potential. Although there are indications in the literature that the employment of PWD can bring many advantages for companies, the effects on companies and the resulting competitive advantages have rarely been empirically investigated. This article aims to analyze the competitive implications of the employment of PWD, as part of the corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategy. The research is based on a literature review. The selected literature was evaluated regarding the competitive advantage using the value-rarityimitability- organisation (VRIO) framework. The results show that the employment of PWD is valuable, rare, and costly to imitate. If a company succeeds in using this resource effectively, this leads to a sustainable competitive advantage. An established corporate culture is a mandatory prerequisite to integrate PWD successfully. This prerequisite represents an imitation barrier. The promotion of the employment of PWD gives access to a new pool of applicants and can contribute to mitigating or preventing a future shortage of skilled workers. The employment of PWD does not wear off as a human resource. The concept can be transferred to different technologies, products, and markets. The sensitivity gained about people with disabilities can open new markets and customer segments. Therefore, PWD's employment as part of the value creation strategy can make a long-term contribution to the company's success and represent a sustainable competitive advantage.
Co-Administration of Conjugated Linoleic Acid and Rosiglitazone Increases Atherogenic Co-Efficient and Alters Isoprenaline-Induced Vasodilatation in Rats Fed High Fat Diet

Published: July 2019

The cis(c)-9, trans(t)-11 (c9,t11) and t10,c12 isomers of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) have been reported as agonists of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) and beneficial in lipidemia and glycemia. However, it is unclear whether CLA isomers enhance or antagonize effects of conventional drugs targeting PPAR. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed high fat diet (HFD) for 8 weeks and treated without or with CLA, rosiglitazone or both for 4 weeks. Oral glucose tolerance and surrogate markers of insulin resistance were not significantly different for all treatments compared to untreated normal diet (ND) or HFD group, except lipoprotein levels. The combination of CLA and rosiglitazone had suppressed levels of low and high density lipoproteins (46 % and 25 %, respectively), compared to HFD-alone. Conversely, the atherogenic co-efficient of the animals received HFD or HFD+rosiglitazone+CLA was 2-folds higher than ND, HFD+rosiglitazone or HFD+CLA. Isolated aortic rings from the combined CLA and rosiglitazone treated animals were less sensitive to isoprenaline-induced relaxation among endothelium-denuded aortas with a decreased efficacy and potency (Rmax=53±4.7 %; pEC50=6±0.2) compared to endothelium-intact aortas (Rmax=100±9.9 %; pEC50=7±0.2). Our findings illustrate that the combination of CLA and rosiglitazone precede the atherogenic state with impaired endothelium-independent vasodilatation before the onset of HFD-induced insulin resistance.
Impaired Post-Irradiation Survival of Cyclooxygenase-2-Deficient Mice
Authors: HOFER M. , HOFEROVÁ Z. , GRUZDEV A. , DUŠEK L. , FALK M.
Published: July 2019

We investigated and evaluated post-irradiation survival in cyclooxygenase-2-deficient (COX-2 KO) mice. Thirty-day survival following exposure of COX-2 KO mice to a lethal dose of 8.5 Gy of γ-rays was observed to be statistically significantly lower in both males and females, as well as when the sexes were merged, in comparisons with their wild-type counterparts. These findings were related to the previous observations concerning the detrimental influence of the COX-2 genetic disruption on hematopoiesis in sublethally irradiated mice. Deteriorated post-irradiation survival of COX-2 KO mice confirmed the previously anticipated conclusion regarding negative influence of the anti-inflammatory action of COX-2 deficiency under the conditions of exposure of the animals to ionizing radiation.
Aspalathin, a C-glucosyl Dihydrochalcone From Rooibos Improves the Hypoglycemic Potential of Metformin in Type 2 Diabetic (db/db) Mice

Published: July 2019

Metformin is the first line therapy of type 2 diabetics, but continued reduction of their life expectancy warrants further investigation into alternative treatment strategies. This study reports on the combinational use of metformin with aspalathin, a C-glucosyl dihydrochalcone with known glucose lowering and antioxidant properties, as an effective hypoglycemic therapy in a type 2 diabetic (db/db) mouse model. When tested as a monotherapy, a low dose of aspalathin (13 mg/kg) showed no effect, while a high dose (130 mg/kg) has already displayed a better potential than metformin in protecting against diabetes associated symptoms in db/db mice. Thus, it remains of interest to determine whether this dihydrochalcone can improve the efficacy of metformin. The results showed that this combination therapy was more effective than the use of metformin as a monotherapy in ameliorating diabetes associated symptoms, including abnormal raised fasting plasma glucose levels, impaired glucose tolerance, as well as excessively increased body weights and fat content. The treated mice also had reduced food and water consumption when compared to untreated controls, with a pronounced effect evident in the last week of treatment. Therefore, this study supports further investigations into the ameliorative effect of combination therapy of metformin and aspalathin against diabetes associated symptoms.

Published: July 2019

This study compared women with and without depression on self-silencing, marital adjustment, and depression. The study also investigated the predictive role of self-silencing and marital adjustment for depression. Two samples were recruited from various Psychiatric units and General Medical wards of different hospitals of Lahore, Pakistan including 80 women diagnosed with depression (Mage= 37.16 years, SD = 8.5) and 80 women without depression (Mage= 36.64 years, SD = 7.7). Using Urdu versions of Silencing the Self Scale (Jack & Dill, 1991), Dyadic Adjustment Scale (Spanier, 1976) and DSM-5 Cross-cutting Measure for Depression and Severity Checklist for Depression (American Psychological Association, 2013), the results revealed that self-silencing was significantly higher in women with depression than the other group while marital adjustment was better in women without depression than the women with depression. Depression was positively correlated with self-silencing and negatively correlated with marital adjustment for the sample of women with depression. Regression analysis revealed Externalized Self-Perception subscale of Silencing the Self Scale appeared to be a positive predictor while Dyadic Satisfaction and Dyadic Cohesion subscales of Dyadic Adjustment were negative predictors of depression. The study implied that psychologists especially couple/marriage counselors may need to focus on the communication patterns of spouses for decreased chances of depression.

Published: July 2019

The present study aimed at exploring the influence of personality characteristics on positive emotions and creativity in a sample of Pakistani nuns. Personality characteristics were hypothesized to have an influence on positive emotions and creativity. The study sample comprised 94 Roman Catholic nuns associated with churches, schools, and hostels in Lahore. Measures of Ten Item Personality Inventory (Gosling, Rentfrow, & Swann, 2003), Kaufman Domains of Creativity Scale (Kaufman, 2012) and Emotional Needs Scale (Culham, 2008) were used to assess personality characteristics, creativity and positive emotions, respectively. The analysis revealed that extraversion personality was the strongest predictor of creativity and positive emotions in nuns. In conclusion, personality characteristics were inferred to be an important factor for facilitating creativity and positive emotions and may well be able to support individuals during unhealthy or difficult circumstances.

Published: July 2019

Introduction: Chronic ulcers are considered as the most common ulcerations and can be differentiated with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) by the presentation of its features. OSCC define as a malignant epithelial neoplasm and the most common neoplasm of the oral cavity. OSCC appears as a mixed white or reddish proliferative growth-like lesion from chronic trauma. Case and management: A 50 years old female came with a painful non-healing ulcer on the lateral right side of the tongue which had been exist since 6 months prior. There had been a gradual increase in the size of the ulcer over the past 6 months. The patient did not have any sistemic disease or bad habits such as chewing or smoking and did not consume alcohol either. Based on the examination, the right submandibular lymphnodes were palpable, tender, firmed and mobile.  And there was also a single oval-shaped ulcer with irregular border on the lateral aspect of the tongue in parallel with fractured and decayed lower first molar. The ulcer size was 2x1 cm in diameter, with the base covered by yellowish pseudomembran slough with indurated border. The grinding of the sharp cusp of the tooth was done, followed by the prescription of multivitamins, antibacterial mouthwash and topical corticosteroid. She was also referred to have routine blood test done. She came for the second visit after 14 days, showing improvement of the ulcer. The blood test showed no abnormal values. Discussion: Based on clinical features, the presented lesion was mimicking OSCC. According to the patient’s history taking, clinical examination and appropriate investigation, the patient was diagnosed with traumatic ulcer. Ulcer resolves and heals on the removal of causative factors. Conclusion: Chronic ulcer is one of the most common solitary ulcer presenting in the oral cavity that mimicking OSCC by the presentation of its features. In this reported case, the ulcer arises due to its constant contact with lateral right of the tongue Improvement during the treatment by eliminating suspected risk factors can ruled out the possibility of OSCC thus prevent the unnecessary treatment.

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an emerging global opportunistic pathogen, responsible for a wide range of human infections, including respiratory tract infections. Intrinsic multidrug resistance and propensity to form biofilms make S. maltophilia infections recalcitrant to treatment. Colistin is among the second-line options in case of difficult-to-treat S. maltophilia infections, with the advantage of being also administrable by nebulization. We investigated the potential synergism of colistin in combination with N-acetylcysteine (NAC) (a mucolytic agent with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties) against S. maltophilia grown in planktonic phase and biofilm. Eighteen S. maltophilia clinical isolates (comprising three isolates from cystic fibrosis (CF) and two trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (SXT)-resistant strains) were included. Checkerboard assays showed a synergism of colistin/NAC combinations against the strains with colistin Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) >2 µg/mL (n = 13), suggesting that NAC could antagonize the mechanisms involved in colistin resistance. Nonetheless, time–kill assays revealed that NAC might potentiate colistin activity also in case of lower colistin MICs. A dose-dependent potentiation of colistin activity by NAC was also clearly observed against S. maltophilia biofilms, also at sub-MIC concentrations. Colistin/NAC combinations, at concentrations likely achievable by topical administration, might represent a valid option for the treatment of S. maltophilia respiratory infections and should be examined further.

Salvia apiana and Salvia farinacea var. Victoria Blue decoctions were screened for diverse bioactivities, including the ability to counteract oxidative and inflammatory events, as well as to act as cytotoxic and antimicrobial agents. Both extracts showed good activities and that of S. apiana origin was particularly effective regarding the ability to prevent lipid peroxidation and to prevent nitric oxide (NO●) production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated murine macrophage RAW 264.7 cell line (EC50 = 50 μg/mL). Moreover, it displayed high cytotoxic capacity against hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2, cervical carcinoma HeLa, and breast carcinoma cells MCF-7, but comparatively low effects in porcine liver primary cells, which highlights its selectivity (GI50 = 41–60 μg/mL vs. 362 μg/mL, respectively). Further, it exhibited inhibitory and lethal potential against a panel of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It is possible that the bioactive properties of the two Salvia extracts are associated to their phenolic components and, in the particular case of S. apiana, to its richness in phenolic terpenes, namely in rosmanol, hydroxycarnosic acid and a derivative of sageone, which were found in the extract.
