Laboratory Investigations Applied to Wood Dust Emmited by Electrical Hand-Held Belt Sander
Authors: Dado Miroslav , Mikušová Lucia , Hnilica Richard
Published: October 2018

Aim of this paper was to investigate the effects of grit size and wood species on mass concentration and size distribution of wood dust produced by hand-held belt sander. Experimental study was designed as 2x2 full factorial experiments. Experimental parameters and their levels were abrasive grain size (P80, P120) and wood species (European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.), Norway spruce (Picea abies)).The mass concentration of emitted wood dust was measured using aerosol monitor (TSI Inc., DustTrak DRX 8533). Sampler head was sited in place representing breathing zone of operator of sander. The results was analysed employing the analysis of variance (ANOVA) with 5% of significance level. Real-time measurements demonstrated that spruce wood generated higher dust concentrations than beech wood due to difference in abrasion durability. Compared to sanding belt with P80 grit size, approximately 16%-32% higher dust concentration was generated when the sanding belt with P120 grit size was used.
A Non-Destructive Impedance Method Using Resonance to Evaluate the Concentration of Steel Fibers in Concrete
Authors: Bachorec T. , Fiala P. , Steinbauer M. , Roubal Z.
Published: October 2018

Steel-fiber reinforced concrete is a composite material characterized by outstanding tensile properties and resistance to cracking. The concrete, however, exhibits such characteristics only on the condition that the steel fibers in the final, hardened composite are distributed evenly. Current methods to evaluate the distribution and concentration in a fiber composite are either destructive or exhibit a limited capability of evaluating the concentration and orientation of the fibers. In this context, the paper discusses auxiliary techniques and laboratory tests that evaluate the density and orientation of the fibers in a composite material, presenting an innovative approach to impedance-based non-destructive testing. The actual methodology utilizes the resonance of the measuring device and the measured sample set; the desired state occurs within the interval of f = 10 kHz and 2 GHz.

Synthesis of pyrrolizidines and indolizidines by multicomponent 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides
Authors: Nájera Carmen , Sansano José Miguel
Published: October 2018

Different multicomponent 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions (1,3-DC) of cyclic α-amino acid derivatives with aldehydes and dipolarophiles have been described as efficient and simple methodologies for the synthesis of the pyrrolidine unit of pyrrolizidines and indolizidines. When free cyclic α-amino acids are used, a thermal promoted decarboxylative process generatesin situthe corresponding non-stabilized azomethine ylides, which afforded the corresponding pyrrolizidines and indolizidines with a hydrogen in the bicyclic units. This methodology has been employed to the synthesis of complex systems including spiro derivatives when ketones are used as carbonyl component. In addition, working with cyclic α-amino acid derived esters, the three-component 1,3-DC takes place under milder reaction conditions giving the corresponding pyrrolizidines and indolizidines with an alkoxycarbonyl group in the bridge adjacent carbon to the nitrogen. This methodology can be carried out by a double consecutive or stepwise 1,3-DC to provide pyrrolizidines via the precursor prolinates. The conformation of the azomethine ylide controls the endo/exo diastereoselectivity of the 1,3-DC.
Evaluation of Resistance to Potato Virus Y of Cultivars in Pre-Registration (Statutory) Trials
Authors: Michalak Krystyna , Chrzanowska Mirosława
Published: October 2018

The paper describes testing potato cultivars for resistance to potato viruses in field and greenhouse conditions according to the scheme of the statutory trials. Seed tubers of tested cultivar are planted in the field in two replications with 30 tubers each. On both sides of each cultivar, 15 PVY-infected tubers, i.e. the source for PVY inoculation, are planted. The evaluation includes standard cultivars of known resistance levels to PVY. The progeny tubers are collected in autumn and growing-on testing is carried out in greenhouse conditions to estimate the number of plants infected with PVY. The other method is to evaluate the resistance of potato cultivars in greenhouse conditions. At present, the resistance of cultivars is evaluated only with respect to PVY, the most important potato virus. Two strains are used in the evaluation, i.e. PVYN-Wiand PVYNTN. For each testing cultivar, 10 plants are mechanically inoculated with each PVY strain. The analysis of the results makes it possible to classify the cultivars into four resistance groups on a 1-9 scale: highly resistant (with the resistance score of 8), resistant (with a value of 7), mid-resistant (with a value 5-6), and susceptible (with a value of 3-4). The ”9” rating is specified after the registration of the cultivars based on molecular tests, that validate the presence of a marker linked to extreme resistance (ER) gene Rysto.
Methods to Study the PVY Population in the Potato
Authors: Yin Zhimin
Published: October 2018

The PVY population in the potato has been studied continuously using tobacco bait plants in potato fields at Młochów since 1980 at two-year intervals and in potato tuber samples collected from different regions of Poland since 2001 yearly. The paper presents the combined biological, serological and molecular assays for PVY identification and strain classification. Biologically, PVY strains are defined with respect to their ability to elicit hypersensitive resistance (HR) mediated by N genes in differential potato cultivars (King Edward, Desiree and Pentland Ivory) and to symptoms in the tobacco (cultivar Samsun). Serologically, an ELISA assay based on polyclonal or monoclonal cocktail antibodies recognizes all PVY strain types, while the specific monoclonal antibodies help to recognize PVYN or PVYO/PVYCstrains. Multiplex RT-PCR, Real-time RTqPCR and sequencing-based assays are used to define the PVY genome structure. In the Polish population of PVY, the strains PVYO, PVYNTN, PVYN-Wi, PVYZ-NTN and PVYEwere identified, while the PVYCstrain was not detected.
Detection of Potato Virus Y (Pvy) by Reverse-Transcription Loop-Mediated Nucleic Acid Amplification (Rt-Lamp)
Authors: Treder Krzysztof , Chołuj Joanna , Zacharzewska Bogumiła , Mielczarek Mateusz
Published: October 2018

Potato virus Y (PVY), a type member of the genus Potyvirus (family Potyviridae), is currently the most important virus infecting the potato crop. PVY is also a dangerous pathogen of the tomato, pepper, and tobacco. The reverse transcription loop-mediated amplification (RT-LAMP) is gaining recognition as a good alternative to RT-PCR in diagnosing plant viruses. Here, we provide a detailed description of a simple protocol for fast and sensitive detection of PVY by the RT-LAMP assay, which can be easily adapted to detect other plant pathogens, harboring both RNA and DNA genomes.

Assessment of Potato Tuber Resistance Against Dry Rot
Authors: Stefańczyk Emil
Published: October 2018

Fungi of the genus Fusarium display inter- and intraspecific variation in their pathogenic capabilities. Although no resistance genes against dry rot have been identified, some indications of the possible defense responses are noticeable, since a single isolate might cause lesions of various sizes when infecting tubers of different potato cultivars. Pathogenicity tests are routinely used to assess potato tubers resistance against dry rot; a setup of pathogenicity test performed at Młochów Research Center is described in this work.
Virus Elimination from In Vitro Potato Plants
Authors: Smyda-Dajmund Paulina
Published: October 2018

The routine and the most effective method of viruses elimination from potato plants is in vitro culture of apical shoots combined with thermo- and/or chemotherapy. At times electrotherapy or cryotherapy is also applied. Elimination of potato viruses by thermotherapy required treatment of infected plants with high temperature (35°C - 45°C) for about two weeks. Thermotherapy is useful for elimination of PLRV and PVY from potato plants. In chemotherapy antimetabolite, like ribavirin is used. Chemotherapy is dedicated for elimination of PVM, PVS and PVX. Very often the successful virus elimination require a few cycles of thermo- and/ or chemotherapy.
The whole picture: Processing of numbers and their context in simultaneous interpreting
Authors: Korpal Paweł , Stachowiak-Szymczak Katarzyna
Published: October 2018

This paper presents an eye-tracking study in which number processing in simultaneous interpreting was investigated. Interpreting accuracy and eye behaviour were studied together to unveil the processing and rendering of numbers by interpreting trainees (N = 22) and professional interpreters (N = 26). While professional interpreters rendered numerals and the context in which they appeared with better accuracy, there was also a positive correlation between number interpreting accuracy and context interpreting accuracy. Our results indicate that interpreting arithmetic values of numerals is more cognitively demanding than interpreting their context, which is reflected in longer mean fixation duration on numbers than on the elements they referred to. Further research is needed to investigate numerical data processing in other tasks, involving other language pairs and interpreting directionality. The study outcomes may be a useful contribution to research on the cognitive aspects of simultaneous interpreting, numerical data processing, as well as interpreter training.

Amor e modernidade na lírica de Drummond
Authors: Gagliardi Laura Rivas
Published: October 2018

The analysis of four poems written by the Brazilian poet Carlos Drummond de Andrade allows different approaches to the love theme in the initial phase of his poetry. The poet’s oscillations between the collective and the individual perspectives also appear in the love poems: at first, traditional forms of relationships are confronted with the new experiences that the big city and the newly established industry in Brazilian society provide. In this context, the amorous incompleteness, a thoughtful subject to the universal literary tradition, gains new contours, and the mismatched love becomes the only possible love experience. In a second move, Drummond leaves aside these proper individual conflicts and dilutes his longings of completeness in a project of social transformation, whose presupposition is the love in the form of friendship, called philia.

Exploring Gender Differences in PrEP Interest Among Individuals Testing HIV Negative in an Urban Emergency Department
Authors: Ridgway Jessica , Almirol Ellen , Schmitt Jessica , Bender Alvie , Anderson Grace , Leroux Ivan , McNulty Moira , Schneider John
Published: October 2018

PrEP is greater than 90% effective at preventing HIV infection, but many people who are vulnerable to HIV choose not to take PrEP. Among women, men who have sex with women (MSW) and men who have sex with men (MSM) who tested HIV negative in our emergency department, we assessed behavioral risk factors, self-perception of HIV risk, and interest in PrEP linkage. Women had lower odds of perceiving any HIV risk versus no risk than MSM, while Whites had greater odds of perceiving themselves as high risk than Blacks. Age and self-perception of risk were not associated with PrEP interest, but patients who were objectively classified as “at risk” had greater odds of interest in PrEP than those not at risk (p < .01). Discordance between HIV risk self-perception and objective risk demonstrates the limitation of relying on patient self-referral for PrEP based on their own subjective risk perception.

Published: October 2018

Addressing stigma remains a pressing HIV priority globally. Young Black men who have sex with men (YBMSM, ages 18–30; N = 474) completed an in-person baseline survey and reported their experiences of externalized stigma (i.e., racial and sexuality discrimination), internalized stigma (i.e., homonegativity), social support, and psychological distress (i.e., anxiety and depression symptoms). We used structural equation modeling to test the association between stigma and psychological distress, and examined whether social support mediated the relationship between stigma and psychological distress. Recognizing that these associations may differ by HIV status, we compared our models by self-reported HIV status (n = 275 HIV negative/unknown; n = 199 living with HIV). Our findings suggest that YBMSM who experience stigma are more vulnerable to psychological distress and may have diminished buffering through social support. These effects are accentuated among YBMSM living with HIV, highlighting the need for additional research focused on the development of tailored stigma reduction interventions for YBMSM.
Looking on the Bright Side: Replicating the Association between Brightness and Positivity
Authors: Specker Eva , Leder Helmut
Published: October 2018

The present study is a pre-registered replication of a study by Specker et al. (2018) that tests the hypothesis that brightness of colors is associated with positivity. Our results showed an implicit association between brightness and positivity in both Study 1 and Study 2, however, an explicit association between brightness and positivity was only found in Study 2, thereby replicating 3 out of 4 effects. To investigate these effects in more detail, we present a meta-analysis of both the original and the replication study. This indicated a large effect 1.31 [1.12, 1.51]. In addition, we used meta-analysis to assess potential moderators of the effect, in particular stimulus type (chromatic vs. achromatic) and measure type (implicit vs. explicit). This indicated that the effect is stronger when measured implicitly than when measured explicitly and that the effect is stronger when achromatic stimuli are used. In sum, we take these findings to indicate that there is a strong and replicable association between brightness and positivity. These findings offer researchers interested in the effect concrete tools when designing a study investigating the effect with regard to effect size estimates for power analysis as well as stimulus and measurement design.

CONSTRUCCIÓN DE LA VERDAD CON PERSPECTIVA DE GÉNERO: UN MARCO TEÓRICO FEMINISTA Y NARRATIVO PARA EL ESCLARECIMIENTO DE LAS LÓGICAS DE LA GUERRA EN COLOMBIA
Authors: Martínez G. Lina M.
Published: October 2018

El artículo se sitúa en una epistemología socioconstruccionista para proponer un marco teórico útil a la inclusión de la perspectiva de género, dentro de las estrategias implementadas por la Comisión de Verdad en el esclarecimiento de las lógicas de la guerra en Colombia. Este marco teórico integra el pensamiento feminista –el cual contribuye a la comprensión de los órdenes de feminidad y masculinidad patriarcal que son exacerbados en el contexto de la guerra– con las ideas narrativas –enfocadas en la reparación del silenciamiento y las violencias particulares a las que han sido expuestas las mujeres en este contexto en razón de su género–. Su implementación se plantea como una hoja de ruta en el camino a recorrer hacia la construcción de la Verdad, en salvaguarda de las subjetividades y la dignidad de las mujeres víctimas.

Para lo anterior se recurre a analizar el tercer momento de inflexión de la justicia transicional (JT) en Colombia y que se refiere al proceso de acuerdo entre el Estado colombiano y el grupo guerrillero FARC-EP, escenario que hace emerger diferentes posiciones sociales, políticas y jurídicas que conforman la figura de la víctima como un resultado de tensiones, a su vez de consensos y negociaciones entre los discursos que despliegan, en concordancia con el institucionalismo discursivo, ideas tanto cognitivas como normativas de diversos actores involucrados en los procesos de JT.
Empirical Correlation between Geotechnical and Geophysical Parameters in a Landslide Zone (Case Study: Nargeschal Landslide)
Authors: Rezaei Sadegh , Shooshpasha Issa , Rezaei Hamed
Published: October 2018

Today, geotechnical and geophysical techniques are used for landslide evaluation. Geotechnical methods provide accurate data, but are time consuming and costly. Geophysical techniques, however, are fast and inexpensive, yet their accuracy is lower than that of the geotechnical methods. Therefore, simultaneous use of geotechnical and geophysical methods provides a suitable solution for landslide evaluation. Availability of geotechnical and geophysical data makes it possible to investigate correlation between different parameters. Correlating geotechnical and geophysical parameters ends up lowering field investigation costs and enhancing subsurface survey speed in a landslide zone. In the present study, in order to evaluate Nargeschal landslide in Iran, ambient noise measurement, ERT survey, and geotechnical investigations were used. Once finished with data processing, the data obtained from geotechnical and geophysical investigations were correlated. These included SPT-N – electrical resistivity, soil moisture content – electrical resistivity, and SPT-N – shear wave velocity correlations. The correlations were examined using two methods, namely Spearman’s coefficient test and least square regression analysis. The results obtained from the two methods were in good agreement with one another. The correlations obtained in this study were of moderate to very strong strength and fell in the range of the results of previous studies. Investigation of the results indicated significant influences of ground water on electrical resistivity and soil stiffness on shear wave velocity. Results of this study can be used for soil classification and determination of mechanical and seismic characteristics of soil across various areas.

Published: October 2018

Eco-environmental change prediction models are important decision tools for policy makers as they help to quantify environmental sensitivity and understand the relationship between human activities and environmental quality. Thus, this paper aims to analyze eco-environmental changes in Monteiro County, a semi-arid zone within northeastern Brazil. This study used means of satellite images, geographic information system and global position system techniques, topographic map, climatic data and soil maps, as well as field survey data. The result outputs were evaluated on their ability to accurately predict the most sensitive and least sensitive areas. The results showed that land cover changes have modified the environment in general, and two prominent environmental degradation processes were identified: land degradation, and low soil loss. The mean soil loss increased from 0.09 t ha−¹ yr−¹ in 1987 to 0.18 t ha−¹ yr−¹ in 2010, as an effect of vegetation gain and particularly the conversion of thousands of square kilometers of Tropophile forest middle slope and barren land into Tropophile forest plain and Tropophile forest high strand. Thus, this study provides insight on territorial ordering and management of environmental services with a regional perspective.

Code breakers e bunny hoppers: transgressão inventiva nas camadas intra e suprajogo
Authors: Mussa Ivan , Messias José
Published: October 2018

Ao longo da história dos videogames é possível detectar a atuação de comunidades e jogadores que subvertem as expectativas estruturais dos sistemas para inventar novos modos de jogo. Essa abordagem transgressiva se manifesta em diversas escalas, que possuem suas especificidades, mas que, de certo ponto de vista, apresentam lógicas análogas. Este artigo tem como objetivo evidenciar essas lógicas por meio de três estudos de caso. Na primeira escala, observaremos a lógica transgressiva suprajogo, que será ilustrada pela modificação amadora brasileira de Guitar Hero III, o jogo Guitar Hero Brazucas. Na segunda, mudaremos para a escala intrajogo, analisando a desconstrução criativa de regras por parte dos speedrunners de Super Mario Bros. e Half-Life 2. Finalmente, utilizaremos a dinâmica do metagame em GunZ: The Duel como demonstração concreta da cognição inventiva demandada por essas transgressões.

Este artigo visa investigar o fenômeno comunicacional desencadeado pela interação de jogadores com e pela cidade por meio da caça e treino de pokémons. A experiência preza pelo engajamento e exploração de diferentes áreas para subir de nível e coletar o máximo de honrarias virtuais. Essa interação social acontece tanto em sites de redes sociais quanto presencialmente. As diferentes fontes de observação reforçam a noção de uma cognição (VARELA, 1994; VARELA; THOMPSON; ROSCH, 2000) na qual cérebro, corpo, objetos e ambiente são igualmente importantes para poder estudar um acontecimento em processo ou encerrado. Sendo assim, ela pode ser entendida como uma associação entre diferentes elementos que propiciam inúmeras maneiras de perceber a interação de jogadores-tecnologias-cidades.

Published: October 2018

AIMS: To analyze factors associated with physical activity levels among older women attending social groups for the elderly.METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted with elderly women enrolled in the Municipal Social Development Foundation in the city of Tubarão, in south Brazil. Sociodemographic and health status variables were evaluated through questionnaires administered during interviews, and by anthropometric evaluation. The level of physical activity was assessed using the Modified Baecke Questionnaire for the Elderly. Quality of life was assessed using the World Health Organization Quality of Life Assessment for older adults.RESULTS: Out of 306 elderly women included in the study, 214 (69.9%) were defined as physically inactive and 92 (30.1%) were active. The proportion of physically active participants between 60-69 years of age was 52.2%, between 70-79 years was 40.2% and equal or more than 80 years was 7.6% (p = 0.011). No other sociodemographic or anthropometric characteristics were associated with physical activity. In the non-adjusted analysis there was association between physical activity and better quality of life, as well as with fewer diseases. There was a weak negative correlation between physical activity and number of diseases (correlation coefficient = 0.215) and a weak positive correlation between physical activity and quality of life scores (correlation coefficient = 0.284). In the adjusted analysis, physical activity remained as a protection factor for loss of quality of life: prevalence ratio = 0.88 (95% confidence interval = 0.81-0.96), p = 0.003.CONCLUSIONS: The study concluded that physical activity in elderly women was associated with better quality of life, even when adjusted for age.

Published: October 2018

AIMSː To investigate the effects of resistance exercise and fish oil intake on muscle morphology in Wistar rats.  METHODSː Forty-eight animals that performed resistance exercise were initially divided into two groups. One group did not take fish oil and the other group took fish oil. The animals of the second group underwent training and took fish oil for eight weeks. At the end of the last resistance exercise session, the 48 rats were organized into six subgroups of eight each, according to the time gap (12, 24 or 48 hours) elapsed until the gastrocnemius muscle withdrawal procedure. At each established time after the last resistance exercise session, the gastrocnemius muscle was removed for morphological analysis.RESULTSː Skeletal muscle cells of the animals that did not receive fish oil presented higher scores of edema, especially those from the groups that had their muscles withdrawn at 24 and 48 hours of time gap. As for the group that took fish oil, we observed a smaller amount of inflammatory infiltrate and reduced areas of necrosis compared to animals that exercised without the use of fish oil, at all post-exercise time gaps. CONCLUSIONSː Fish oil intake attenuated morphological changes in muscle tissue after high-intensity exercises.

Objetivo: Conhecer a percepção da equipe de enfermagem sobre a presença e participação do acompanhante no cuidado a criança hospitalizada.Materiais e Métodos: Estudo descritivo e exploratório, com abordagem qualitativa, realizado com 11 profissionais de enfermagem por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas, cujos resultados foram tratados através da análise temática, proposta por Bardin. O projeto foi aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética da UNEB, parecer nº 823.653.Resultados: A partir da análise dos dados emergiram três categorias “Percepção da enfermagem sobre o acompanhante: benefícios e transtornos”; “Participação do acompanhante na assistência à criança: aspectos afetivos, cuidados do cotidiano e complexos” e “Influência da presença do acompanhante no cuidado de enfermagem”.Conclusão: Os profissionais, em sua maioria, consideram os benefícios da presença do acompanhante durante a hospitalização da criança, entretanto percebem o acompanhante como realizador do cuidado, e não como alguém que também demanda cuidado. Nessa perspectiva, torna-se primordial compreender os impactos da hospitalização tanto para a criança como para os pais/responsáveis.

Yet, providing effective in-service training solutions is a persistent challenge for CPD planners.MethodsPrimary care physicians are frequently confronted with skin lesionsthey feel ill-prepared to manage. A dermatology Learning-by-concordance (LbC) online activity was developed and offered to family physicians for CPD credit. We were interested in finding out whether this online tool was suitable for CPD. Following a pilot phase, the on-line activity was launched and 45 geographically dispersed primary care physicians completed it. They participated in a telephone conference a week later with an expert to discuss outstanding questions. Evaluation was carried out by a survey that was available immediately after the last case. ResultsParticipants found the on-line training tool user friendly and should be implemented on a larger scale. Participants found the dermatology concepts discussed allowed them to increase their knowledge and apply it to their practice.DiscussionAmong the strengths of LbC is that the learning task resemble those of a primary physician's daily practice. Finally, our study reveals that LbC is easily integrated in busy work schedules and thus is an effective learning solution for CPD.

Authors:   The Tourism Sciences Society Of Korea, Kim Tae-Ho , Kim Hak-Seon
Published: October 2018

The purpose of this study was to analyze trends of ramen demand forecasting by the Gompertz growth model in order to predict the continuous growth of ramen demand at the 60th anniversary of its invention. In order to predict mid- and long-term demand, this study estimated the potential ramen market size by applying the sales information of the ramen market. As a result, it is expected that the estimated period that can reach the normal level of sales while maintaining the current level is 9.5 years, and that the sales of 2026 will decrease to about 3.1 trillion won and then continue to decrease. Although it took 16 years to grow from 1 trillion KRW to 2 trillion KRW, it will take 13 years to reach 3 trillion KRW. Based on these results, we propose a strategy to introduce products that emphasize product taste differentiation and product differentiation function in accordance with consumer psychology for continuous growth in the domestic market.

Authors:   The Tourism Sciences Society Of Korea, Jang You-Hyun
Published: October 2018

This study analyzed entrepreneurs' experience of Korean tourism start-ups initiated in the Korean business ecological system. Using phenomenological methods, in-depth interviews were conducted with 10 Entrepreneurs, with additional focus group interviews conducted with four members of that group. This study also used the theoretical evolutionary view, which was applied to the business life cycle. By the use of Giorgi's phenomenological approach, this study revealed that the four evolutionary stages could also nicely fit into the business ecological system. The results of this study categorized the concepts into four evolutionary stages,: variation, selection, duplication, and co-evolution. This study has significant contributions for the understanding of the entrepreneurial ecological business systems in the Korean tourism industry. Furthermore, it is expected to be a good starting point for future research on tourism start-ups, which are comparatively not so active in tourism research.
TÜRKİYE’NİN DOĞU YAHUDİLERİ ÜZERİNE ETNOGRAFİK BİR ALAN ARAŞTIRMASI
Authors: ŞANLI Süleyman
Published: October 2018

Tarihin eski dönemlerinden beri Anadolu’da Yahudilerin varlığına rastlanmaktadır. Tarih boyunca Anadolu’da yaşayan Yahudi topluluklarına bakıldığında Karaim, Romaniot, Aşkenaz ve Sefarad Yahudileri olarak bilinen Yahudi cemaatlerinin yaşadığı görülmektedir. Sefarad Yahudilerinin İspanya'dan gönderilmesiyle birlikte oluşan göç dalgalarının bir sonucu olarak Sefarad Yahudileri, diğer Yahudi gruplar arasında hakim Yahudi cemaati haline geldi. Yahudiler özellikle İstanbul, İzmir, Bursa ve Edirne gibi batı bölgelerinde yoğunlaşarak Osmanlı Devleti’nin farklı yerlerine dağıldılar. Yapılan bilimsel araştırma ve çalışmaların çoğu özellikle batı bölgelerinde yaşayan Yahudi cemaatleri üzerine idi. Oysa Gaziantep, Urfa, Siverek, Diyarbakır, Çermik, Mardin, Nusaybin, Cizre, Başkale ve Van gibi günümüz Türkiye’sinin doğu kesimlerinde yaşayan önemli Yahudi toplulukları da vardı. Doğuda yaşayan Yahudi toplulukları üzerine yapılan bilimsel çalışmaların yetersizliği kaynak sayısının azlığından da anlaşılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada sunulan verilerin büyük bir kısmı İsrail'de gerçekleştirilen antropolojik bir alan çalışmasıyla elde edilmiştir. Doğu Yahudilerinin kültürüne dair bilgiler saha çalışması boyunca yapılan etnografik mülakatlara dayanmaktadır. Türkiye’nin doğu ve güneydoğusunda şuanda en azından bildiğimiz kadarıyla Yahudiler yaşamamaktadır. Bu çalışma ile bir zamanlar Türkiye’nin doğu ve güneydoğusunda yaşayan Yahudi topluluklarının kültürüne dair bir takım bilgiler verilmesi amaçlanmaktadır.

Published: October 2018

Breast cancer is the 2nd most common malignant disease after lung cancer; about 1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. Cancer progression is a serious complication of the disease that encourages comprehensive investigation of molecular mechanisms underlying breast cancer development. This is also important for healthcare professionals involved in patient management, since they have to choose an optimal treatment regimen. This article discusses the role of microRNAs in the development of breast cancer, their biogenesis, classification, association with various molecular subtypes of breast cancer, and their potential role in the development of new targeted drugs for breast cancer therapy. Current research on the role of microRNAs in breast cancer progression is focused on the development of markers for breast cancer prognosis, diagnostic markers and new targeted drugs.

Challenges and prospects of preterm birth prediction in multiple pregnancies

Published: October 2018

For today, twins make up about 1.5% of the population of our planet. It is more than one hundred million people, which in number corresponds to the population of two Frances. The number of twins born relative to the total number of newborns in different countries and on different continents is different, but the overall trend is that it continues to grow. In recent years, the percentage of multiple pregnancy has increased almost 2.5 times, which is associated with the widespread use of assisted reproductive technologies.At the same time, pregnancy in multiple births is an extremely important problem in modern obstetrics, as it is accompanied by a high level of complications for both the mother and the fetuses. Multiple pregnancy contributes significantly to the formation of adverse perinatal outcomes, which is primarily due to the high rate of preterm birth. Premature twins are at high risk of neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders, respiratory distress, endocrine and metabolic disorders, which subsequently become the cause of disability and social maladaptation of children. In this regard, the reduction in the number of premature births is today a priority task, the solution of which is possible only through timely and correct forecasting. The multifactority of pathogenic mechanisms determines the necessity of diagnostic search strategies that can identify markers of various pathogenetic ways of preterm birth.
