Authors: García Cruz Juan Israel
Published: December 2018

El territorio puede ser observado desde diferentes ópticas legales no necesariamente coincidentes. En el caso Español, la separación entre realidad administrativa (catastro) y jurídica (registro de la propiedad) explica la paradoja de considerar una misma realidad física de distinta forma, dando lugar a diferentes fuentes de información. En este contexto, se han articulado sucesivos intentos de unificarlas, reforzando sus acciones tras la reforma legal de 2015. El presente trabajo realiza una aproximación a esta paradoja, considerando la viabilidad de una fuente unificada.

Towards serious gaming for water distribution networks sizing: a teaching experiment
Authors: Laucelli Daniele B. , Berardi Luigi , Simone Antonietta , Giustolisi Orazio
Published: December 2018

Real-life engineering problems relate to different technical aspects to be considered at the same time. Traditional teaching techniques for engineering students (i.e., future decision-makers for such problems) sometimes need to be supplemented to convey this complexity, and thus innovative approaches are needed. A new and useful approach allowing a more intuitive understanding of real-life problems is serious gaming (SG), which combines a game environment and utility functions to address real problems. This paper describes a first attempt to use SG to help engineering students learn and deal with the complexities of designing water distribution networks given multiple objectives and uncertainty. This application of SG relates to five benchmark water distribution networks, and students were asked to find the optimal value of pipe diameters to minimize the capital cost of pipes. The results of the experiment show that students learn in less time how to design water distribution networks while enjoying the experience. Most students found the approach useful, claiming that the difficulty in approaching the pipe sizing problem decreased considerably as the practice of the game increases. The results of the experiment suggest that SG may have value in learning how to design other engineering systems.

Published: December 2018

This paper presents results of research that has developed a set of diagnostic and decision-support tools for assessing sanitation services city-wide. It highlights features of the tools and illustrates key results from their validation through application in five cities worldwide. Collective use of these tools reveals and explains the complexities of the enabling environment and political economy within which sanitation services are delivered. Results present not only the status quo of services but also reasons for them being so. The tools have proven effective in guiding the collection, analysis and discussion of evidence, as a precursor to detailed feasibility studies, necessary to ultimately plan appropriate city-wide sanitation interventions.

Authors: Jinadasa K. B. S. N. , Weragoda S. K. , Valencia E. , Sim S. T. V. , Ng W. J.
Published: December 2018

Kandy City is a UNESCO world heritage site. Being the second largest city in Sri Lanka and host to the annual Esala Perahara festival, it has a floating population two to three times its 120,000 permanent residents. Among the city's key landmarks is Kandy Lake, a culturally, environmentally, and economically significant ornamental lake. Nevertheless, inadequate urban development regulation has resulted in serious pollution of the lake. An integrated remedial measure was needed to improve the urban lake's water quality sustainably, for the Kandy community and their cultural heritage. A project was initiated by the University of Peradeniya (UOP), Sri Lanka, and the Nanyang Environment and Water Research Institute (NEWRI), Singapore. It started with modelling of Kandy Lake and community surveys, demonstrated implementation of wastewater management technologies (floating wetlands and an aerobic sequencing batch reactor (SBR)), and initiated community outreach with schools. The project also involved local authorities and government agencies in Kandy, and provided an informal cooperation platform. After project handover on July 10, 2014, further developments were observed in Kandy, including implementation of sewerage and centralised wastewater treatment, rehabilitation of Kandy Lake and the Mid-Canal, and integration of Kandy Lake into the city's development plan and regulations.

Authors: Matarazzo Ilaria , Toniato Elena , Robuffo Iole
Published: December 2018

Recently gut bacterial populations seem to be involved in many functions and in the pathogenesis
of several medical conditions. Traditionally the intestinal microbiome has been recognized to
play an important role in metabolizing food compounds in simpler chemical structures for the absorption
of different nutrients, and in maintenance control of gastrointestinal pathogens species. Bacterial populations
are implicated in a complicated network of interactions within the immune system, epithelial cells
local endocrine system, that affects the peripheral and the central nervous system, via blood circulation.
Microbiome influencing the mind via immune, endocrine and metabolic signalling, is able to exert some
clinical effects in different mental diseases. It releases endocrine substances through several pathways
involved in the modulation of neuroinflammation and production of several neurotrasmitter precursors.
It has recently been named psychobiome. It is known that phenolic compounds are able to influence microbiome
proliferation and to exert several roles, especially regarding neuroinflammation in depressive
and anxious behaviour. The clinical effects are reported in the literature. The aim of this study is to highlight
the interaction between polyphenols and microbiota- gut-brain axis.

Published: December 2018

Histone deacetylases (HDACs), as epigenetic modifiers, are essential for gene transcriptional
activities. The alternation of HDACs expression, mutation and/or inappropriate recruitments has
been discovered in a broad range of tumors contributing to the tumorigenesis through a serial of biological
pathways. HDACs, therefore, are characterized as promising cancer therapeutic targets, and their
inhibitors are under rapid development. Here, we discuss HDAC inhibitors in terms of their functional
mechanism establishing the anti-tumor effects and potential clinical applications including the
synergistic effects in combinational treatment.
DFT-Based QSAR Modelling of Inhibitory Activity of Coumarins and Sulfocoumarins on Carbonic Anhydrase (CA) Isoforms (CA I and CA II)
Authors: Eroglu Erol
Published: December 2018

Objective: We present three robust, validated and statistically significant quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models, which deal with the calculated molecular descriptors and experimental inhibition constant (Ki) of 42 coumarin and sulfocoumarin derivatives measured against CA I and II isoforms.  Methods: The compounds were subjected to DFT calculations in order to obtain quantum chemical molecular descriptors. Multiple linear regression algorithms were applied to construct QSAR models. Separation of the compounds into training and test sets was accomplished using Kennard-Stone algorithm. Leverage approach was applied to determine Applicability Domain (AD) of the obtained models.  Results: Three models were developed. The first model, CAI_model1 comprises 30/11 training/test compounds with the statistical parameters of R2=0.85, Q2=0.77, F=27.57, R2 (test) =0.72. The second one, CAII_model2 comprises 30/12 training/test compounds with the statistical parameters of R2=0.86, Q2=0.78, F=30.27, R2 (test) =0.85. The final model, ΔpKi_model3 consists of 25/3 training/ test compounds with the statistical parameters of R2=0.78, Q2=0.62, F=13.80 and R2(test) =0.99.  Conclusion: Interpretation of reactivity-related descriptors such as HOMO-1 and LUMO energies and visual inspection of their maps of orbital electron density leads to a conclusion that the binding free energy of the entire binding process may be modulated by the kinetics of the hydrolyzing step of coumarins.

This study aims to evaluate the effect of giving Garlic and Allium sativum (TUKBP) Flour as feed additives on various levels of feeding in feed consumption, Hen Day Production (HDP), egg mass, feed conversion and Income Over Feed Cost (IOFC) in laying hens. A total of 320 laying hens strain Isa Brown produced by PT. Charoen Pokphand aged 30 weeks, divided into 8 treatments and 4 replications each replication using 10 chickens. The experimental design used was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). Eight treatment groups were as follows: basal feed + 0% TUKBP as negative control feed (P0), basal feed + virginiamycin antibiotic 0.015% as positive control (P1), and basal feed + TUKBP 0.25% (P2), 0, 50% (P3), 0.75% (P4), 1.00% (P5), 1.25% (P6) and 1.50% (P7). Data were analyzed using ANOVA test, if there were significant differences between treatments continued with Duncan's Multiple Range test. The results showed that feed with the addition of TUKBP can improve the appearance of laying hens, although it has not matched the feed with the addition of antibiotics. The use of TUKBP to the level of 1.50% in feed does not cause negative effects for laying hens. Administration of TUKBP at 1.00% level (P5) is able to replace synthetic antibiotics or as organic additive feeds in laying chicken feed.

ABSTRACTBackground: Communication is a basic skill that must be acquired by every doctor just like all other clinical skills. One of communication guidelines for doctor-patient that is the most widely used in many countries is the Calgary-Cambridge Communication Guideline (CCCG). However, since CCCG is based on the Western style of communications, a further study is necessary to determine whether CCCG is acceptable and applicable in Indonesia.Methods:  This research was an analytic descriptive study with a cross-sectional design. The research was conducted from December 2016 until January 2017 in Yogyakarta with 58 primary care doctors. The data was collected using the CCCG-based questionnaire method with a cross-cultural adaptation.Results: The CCCG is well accepted although its application is not optimum. The acceptance rate was 4.03 (indicating highly acceptable), while the application rate was 3.74 (indicating occasionally implemented). There was a significant difference between the acceptance and application rates (p<0.01). There were no significant differences between the acceptance rates of Puskesmas (Community and Primary Health Care Center) and non-Puskesmas (p = 0.115) facilities while the application was significantly different (p = 0.001). The application levels of the Puskesmas were lower than those in non-Puskesmas. Additionally, there was no difference in the acceptance or application of CCCG for doctors who have and who have not attended communication training.Conclusion: There was no difference in the acceptance of CCCG, but there was a difference in its application. The application rate at Puskesmas was lower than non-Puskesmas facilities. The experience in communication training did not affect the acceptance and the application rates of CCCG.

Kan man uddanne sig til at blive en dygtigere leder? Det spørgsmål er relevant for alle masteruddannelser og mange andre uddannelser og kurser i ledelse. Svaret i denne artikel er et betinget ja. Betinget, fordi det ikke er ligegyldigt, hvordan lederuddannelser udformes, og hvilke pædagogiske og didaktiske principper, der anvendes i undervisningen. Det skyldes at effekten på deltagernes ledelsespraksis afhænger både af deres viden, deres refleksionsevne og af deres personlige mod til at bruge deres viden og refleksioner til at forandre udøvelsen af ledelse i praksis. I denne artikel redegør vi for den teoretiske baggrund for og den praktiske implementering heraf i et konkret masterfag i strategisk pædagogisk lederskab i skolen.
Earthquake prediction, ionospheric total electron content, and three earthquakes in California
Authors: Urusan Ahmet
Published: December 2018

Because it is a newer and unproven technique, ionospheric seismology is still accepted as a phenomenon by a lot of scientists. However, research in this subject is rapidly increasing in the last decade. According to the ionospheric seismology, the mechanical energy accumulated by the compression of the rocks before the big earthquakes is released from the ground by creating a positive hall. These processes at the ground-to-air interface can lead to the injection of massive amounts of air ions into the lower atmosphere [1]. As a result of the injection, the earthquake lights, temperature rising, the pressure in the troposphere, radio frequencies distortions, and total electron content perturbation in ionosphere occur. Therefore, even if it does not enough alone, this parameter can be contributing to earthquake predict. It has been supported with several instances of manuscript. In this study, ionospheric total electron content was calculated for each station and satellite using GPS stations data in California, USA, for three last earthquakes. The earthquakes are named Hector Mine-1999, Baja-2009, and Napa-2014, and their magnitudes are 7.1, 7.2, and 6, respectively. After the processes, quite significant outcomes have been obtained.

As Habilidades Sociais (HS) referem-se a diversas classes de comportamentos sociais de um indivíduo. O ingresso das crianças em um ambiente estruturado como a escola traz mudanças tanto para as crianças quanto para os pais, demandando maior competência social da criança. Essa pesquisa objetivou investigar o repertório de HS de alunos dos anos iniciais que emitem mais e menos comportamentos inadequados na percepção de seus professores. Participaram 64 alunos (idade média de 10,2 anos) e dez professoras dos anos iniciais de uma escola pública. Foi utilizado o Sistema Multimídia de Habilidades Sociais de Crianças (SMHSC) e gerados os testes estatísticos Qui-Quadrado, t de Student e Correlação de Pearson e medidas descritivas. Os resultados apontaram que não existiam diferenças significativas entre o escore total de HS dos alunos classificados pelas professoras como os que apresentavam mais comportamentos inadequados e o dos que apresentavam menos comportamentos inadequados, porém, os alunos que apresentam mais comportamentos inadequados mostraram mais dificuldades para solicitar auxílio dos colegas e fazer questionamentos.

Feed is the main source of nutrients to support vannamei shrimp growth. The high cost of feed in operational costs due to the high raw material price of fish meal, limited availability, while the demand is high. Therefore it is necessary to find alternative materials that are low in price, have a high enough protein content and abundant availability such as golden snail flour. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of different proportion of fish meal and mashed snail (Pomacea canaliculata) as the main feedstock for the growth of shrimp vannamei (Litopenaeus vannamei). The experimental design used in this study was Completely Randomized Design (RAL) consisting of 5 treatments, namely A (57.18% use of fish meal in feed), B (42.89% use of fish meal, 14.30% mashed flour), C (28.59% fish meal usage, 28.59% mashed snail), D (Use of 14.30% fish meal, 42.89% mashed snail), and E (Use 57.18% golden snail flours). This study shows that the addition of mashed snail flour in the feed can increase the growth of absolute weight, the daily weight of vannamei shrimp, and can decrease the value of FCR.

O ensino de sociologia nos cursos de enfermagem: discutindo possibilidades curriculares
Authors: Santos Elisângela
Published: December 2018

O ensino de sociologia em áreas não específicas das ciências sociais é tema pouco debatido na produção acadêmica, por isso, algumas dificuldades pedagógicas são enfrentadas em relação à legitimação da presença dessa disciplina em outras áreas. Considerando esse aspecto, este ensaio tem como objetivo discutir algumas possibilidades curriculares para o ensino de sociologia nos cursos de enfermagem. Propomos refletir a mobilização desse ensino na formação do futuro profissional de saúde, bem como apontar sua multidisciplinaridade, o que, na nossa visão, contribui para que a sociologia também possa ser recepcionada na compreensão do processo saúde/doença, no qual fatores sociais e culturais têm papel extremamente relevante. Para atingir esse objetivo, pautamo-nos em referenciais bibliográficos da área da sociologia da saúde.  Dividimos o texto em alguns eixos: primeiramente, apresentamos um breve histórico do ensino da disciplina de sociologia e a persistência da separação entre ensino e pesquisa; em segundo lugar, realizamos uma revisão do campo da sociologia da saúde; em seguida, como resultados, destacamos a importância da interdisciplinaridade; por fim, mobilizamos alguns temas e autores possíveis para o ensino da sociologia.
