Recent advances in renal regeneration
Authors: Hasegawa Sho , Tanaka Tetsuhiro , Nangaku Masaomi
Published: February 2019

Regeneration of a functional kidney from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) is challenging because of its complex structure. Kidneys are derived from embryonic metanephros, which are composed of three progenitor cells: nephron progenitors, ureteric bud, and stromal progenitors. Nephron progenitors and ureteric bud have been induced successfully from PSCs as a result of the understanding of their detailed developmental process through cell-lineage tracing analysis. Moreover, these induced progenitors can be used to reconstruct the three-dimensional (3D) structure of kidneys in vitro, including glomeruli with podocytes, renal tubules, and the branching ureters. Induction of the remaining renal progenitors (that is, stromal progenitors from PSCs and the further maturation of reconstructed kidneys) needs to be studied extensively to regenerate functional and sophisticated kidneys from PSCs. In addition to the proper induction of renal progenitors, new bioengineering methods such as decellularization and 3D bioprinting and the recent advancements in the regeneration of kidneys in other species are promising leads for regenerating the complex spatial arrangement of kidneys, including the vascular network and urinary excretion pathway in humans.

Taurodontism part 1: history, aetiology and molecular signalling, epidemiology and classification
Authors: Hasan Muhammad
Published: February 2019

Abstract: Taurodontism is a developmental morphological anomaly that affects the internal anatomy of the multi-rooted teeth; hence, it is difficult to distinguish from a normal tooth structure based only on external appearance. In this defect, the teeth have elongated and cylindrical pulp cavities, a deep furcation and short roots. This article aims to address an important problem related to the cause of taurodontism. Although it is a well-held belief that taurodontism is caused by delayed or failed invagination of Hertwig's Epithelial Root Sheath (HERS), the molecular mechanism that signals this delay or failure had not been well understood until recently. This article discusses the history, aetiology, prevalence and classification of this morphological disorder, whereas part 2 of this 2-part series will discuss the biomechanics of taurodontic teeth, differential diagnosis and congenital disorders that mimic taurodontism, relevant syndromes, clinical implications and management.

CPD/Clinical Relevance: In order to treat cases presenting taurodontism, it is essential to understand this anomaly along with its history, aetiology and associated epidemiology. This will provide clinicians with a deeper understanding when they encounter a relatively unnoticeable anomaly.

Authors: Lukasczuk Lopes Renata
Published: February 2019

Universidades são organizações complexas e possuem características próprias, o que contribui para que suas estratégias sejam focadas principalmente em decisões e ações, ao invés de planos documentais. Em virtude de sua complexidade, a elaboração de um planejamento estratégico pode não garantir o alcance dos objetivos que foram planejados. Na prática, existem diversos fatores que influenciam o processo estratégico e contribuem para a realização de estratégias emergentes. O artigo se propõe a analisar, por meio de um ensaio teórico, as estratégias realizadas em universidades, sob o enfoque da teoria da complexidade e da visão de estratégias emergentes. Para a melhor compreensão do fenômeno analisado, descreve-se as universidades como organizações complexas, os desafios do planejamento estratégico, a estratégia como um processo emergente, bem como a realização de estratégias nas universidades. A partir de uma breve exposição da literatura, o artigo conclui que as universidades possuem especificidades que precisam ser consideradas na formação de suas estratégias e que, essas estratégias combinam aspectos deliberados e emergentes, em uma combinação de planejamento e prática.

Authors: Szuhanek Camelia , Grigore Adelina
Published: February 2019

Mini screws represent a new treatment modality in orthodontic biomechanics. They provide absolute anchorage, no secondary movements and reduced orthodontic treatment time. Futhermore, the surgical procedure for mini implants placement is quite simple and this type of treatment requires no patient compliance. We selected a clinical case in order to emphasize one of the most important indications of the mini implants: retrusion of the upper incisors for a incresed overjet case in a young patient. Two mini implants were placed in order to obtain the correction of the overjet and the retrusion of the anterior teeth. The retrusion was obtained in a reduced period of time using retraction devices on crimpable hooks.

Adaptive Contribution of Thyroid Hormones in Obesity
Authors: Ozcelik Fatih , Dastan Ali Imran , Pence Halime Hanim , Ciraci Mehmet Zahit
Published: February 2019

Nowadays, obesity is seriously threatening healthy life in all societies, especially in developed societies. Obesity is showing its likely effects through biologically active substances called adipokines. The most familiar of these is leptin. Leptin is synthesized in directly proportional to the amount of adipose tissue and reduced appetite by stimulating the satiety center. This status is like a protective mechanism that tries to reverse severe pathological process. Similar to this behavior of leptin, thyroid hormones are increasing in the advanced stages of obesity, increasing the resting energy expenditure (REE). The accelerating oxidative phosphorylation causes the use of energy as heat, the energy that has not transformed into ATP, together with ATP synthesis. This situation, the significant portion of energy provides to consumed instead of storing as fat. In addition, finding that T3 accelerates glucose transport and the TCA cycle without changing the rate of ATP synthesis in skeletal muscles suggests that thyroid hormones may be an effective tool in standing against obesity. In addition of that, the presence of studies indicating that thyroid hormones have an increasing tendency in the advanced stages of obesity is likely thought to be a rescuer mechanism to increase the effectiveness of suppressed thyroid hormones. On the contrary of these ideas, having been reported suppressing 5’-deiodinease enzyme activity in chronic diseases causes anxiety about the effectiveness of thyroid hormones in obesity. Based on available information, we aimed to prepare a review evaluating of this adaptive condition of thyroid hormones.

Psychosocial Factors among Hypertensive Women
Authors: Sharma Usha
Published: February 2019

Prevalence of hypertension in women has been increasing day by day, it was reported that in India the overall prevalence of hypertension is 15.4 per cent among men and 15.9 per cent among women1, keeping in view the mounting prevalence of hypertension in women, the present investigation aimed to compare hypertensive and non-hypertensive women on stress, anger styles, type A behaviour and subjective well-being. The sample comprised of 200 women i.e. 100 were hypertensive women and 100 healthy women labeled as non hypertensive women within the age range of 45 yr - 60 yr. The study provided strong evidence for the detrimental effects of anger, stress and type a behavior. Thus, there are various programs which should be given to patients that help them to modify their behavior and promote different ways to enhance optimism, subjective well-being and effective coping among women and consequently reduce the risk of hypertension.
Will the Big Five Personality Factor Stand-up: An Analysis of NEO Personality Inventory-Revised
Authors: Kumar Suresh , Darolia CR
Published: February 2019

The aim of the present study was to examine the factorial invariance of a major instrument i.e., NEO-Personality Inventory-Revised-Form S (NEO PI-R)1, tapping broad five factor of personality such as: neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experiences, agreeableness, and conscientiousness. It also aimed to study the replication of broad five factors in Indian population. To achieve these objectives, the NEO PI-R was administered on a sample of 375 subjects (age range from 18 yrs to 22 yrs) randomly selected from various academic institutes in Indian. The statistical analysis such as descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, and factor analysis were performed on collected data. The higher mean score on neuroticism in present data indicates a cultural variation across the country. Reliability analysis was confirmed test-retest reliability ranging from 0.70 to 0.78 (n = 108, gap of over 60 days) and strikingly high internal consistency ranging from 0.98 to 0.99 for the big five factor in India. Bivariate correlation analyses demonstrate positive significant correlations among the facets scale of NEO-PI-R and their corresponding factor except few correlations. The significant correlations among the five factors question their independence in the measurement of personality structure. In factor analysis, the three personality dimension such as conscientiousness, neuroticism, and agreeableness were clearly replicates and the other two factors such as extraversion and openness to experience were partially replicate to define the personality structure in Indian population. These findings are in line with existing literature and have strong implications to define the personality structure in Indian population

Published: February 2019

White and red varieties of quinoa were germinated and studied for the changes in nutritional, anti-nutritional and rheological characteristics. Germination has significantly (p≤0.05) enhanced protein and crude fibre with the significant (p≤0.05) reduction in carbohydrate contents in both the varieties. Anti-nutritional factor like phytic acid was decreased by 8.56 and 18.80 units in white and red varieties respectively. Total phenols, total flavonoids enhanced significantly (p≤0.05) in both the varieties, showing more in red variety exhibiting comparatively higher antioxidant activity. After 48 hr of germination, vitamin ‘C’ in both the varieties enhanced between the range of 10.56 and 13.23 mg/100g. Linoleic acid was the major fatty acid identified in both the varieties constituting more than 50 per cent of total fatty acids. Germination has reduced linoleic, linolenic and palmitic acids with the increase in stearic and oleic acids. Germination also caused significant (p≤0.05) decrement in breakdown, set back and final viscosities in both the varieties without much affecting their pasting temperature.

Published: February 2019

The rise of antibiotic resistance is an emerging problem of the millennium. Clinical microbiology plays an important role in combating the problem by facilitating diagnostics and therapeutics thus managing infection in patients. Diagnostic failures are a major limiting factor during bacterial infection that causes inappropriate use of antibiotics, delay in start up of treatment and decrease in the survival rate during septic conditions. Thus rapid and reliable detection is highly relevant during such bacterial infections and also at the time of disease outbreak as many such pathogens can be used as biothreat agents or bioweapons affecting human health and posing risk to national security. This review highlights the importance of various methods for fast pathogen detection and antimicrobial susceptibility determination. These methods have the potential to provide very precise and rapid ways for bacterial screening and identifying the correct antibiotics to cure infection
Influence of Initial State Errors on Perturbation Guidance Accuracy
Authors: Jing Wuxing , Zheng Xu , Gao Changsheng
Published: February 2019

The inertial navigation system is aligned and leveled before the launch of a long-range vehicle. However, the initial state errors caused by the non-uniformity of the Earth can influence the parameters in flight dynamics, which will bring about serious uncertainty for the impact point of a long-range vehicle. Firstly, this paper analyses the influence mechanism of initial state errors on nominal trajectory, navigation trajectory and guidance trajectory. Then, a propagation model of engine-cutoff state deviation caused by initial state errors is derived under the condition of without-guidance. On this basis, an accuracy analytical solution of initial state errors on perturbation guidance is finally proposed to obtain the real impact-point of the long-range vehicle. In the simulations, the influence properties of initial state errors on perturbation guidance is analysed, give influence regularities of single initial state error, and obtain the statistical properties of engine-cutoff state deviations and impact-point deviation by Monte Carlo technique. From the simulation results, it seems that the navigation state tracks the nominal state. However, the real impact- point deviation has not been truly eliminated, instead of the almost target-hit deviation calculated by navigation output. The proposed analytical guidance accuracy model can be rapidly computed to provide a compensation for guidance and control system to improve hit accuracy.
On the Possible Mechanisms for Saltening of the Bay of Bengal
Authors: Prasad C Anoopa , Kumar P.V. Hareesh
Published: February 2019

The Bay of Bengal (BoB) is a low saline basin owing to large influx of freshwater from precipitation and river runoff. To maintain the salt balance of the BoB, the incessant lowering of salinity is to be balanced by the inflow of saltier water into the basin. In the present work, various processes that contribute to the saltening of the BoB, viz. coastal upwelling, eddies and their interaction, lateral advection from Arabian Sea and tropical cyclones are discussed. In the near-shore regions, the coastal upwelling due to wind induced Ekman transport plays a dominant role in increasing the surface salinity. On the other hand, in the open ocean, the divergence induced by eddies and their mutual interaction contributes significantly to the salt water pumping. In the southern BoB, the advection from the Arabian Sea increases the salinity. The formation of cyclones in the BoB also leads to an increase in the surface salinity. However, the magnitude of saltening of the Bay due to these processes varies from north to south. The uplift of saltier water from subsurface levels increases the salinity in the surface layers thereby creating a salinity gradient and a salinity front.

Published: February 2019

The efforts of Russian-Indian research team for application of the data science methods, in particular, artificial neural networks for development of the multi-factor computational models for studying effects of additive’s properties on the solid rocket propellants combustion are presented. The possibilities of the artificial neural networks (ANN) application in the generalisation of the connections between the variables of combustion experiments as well as in forecasting of “new experimental results” are demonstrated. The effect of particle size of catalyst, oxidizer surface area and kinetic parameters like activation energy and heat release on the final ballistic property of AP-HTPB based propellant composition has been modelled using ANN methods. The validated ANN models can predict many unexplored regimes, like pressures, particle sizes of oxidiser, for which experimental data are not available. Some of the regularly measured kinetic parameters extracted from non-combustion conditions could be related to properties at combustion conditions. Results predicted are within desirable limits accepted in combustion conditions.

Published: February 2019

Contexto: Los fenómenos erosivos en las playas del Caribe colombiano tienen repercusiones negativas sobre la población, razón por la cual se decidió evaluar diferentes propuestas de estructuras para la protección costera. Se realizó un análisis comparativo entre arrecifes artificiales y estructuras flotantes mediante modelación CFD para condiciones típicas del Caribe colombiano con el objetivo de establecer cuál estructura presenta mejor comportamiento.
Métodos: Se utilizó el software Flow3D para evaluar cinco estructuras básicas sumergidas, configuraciones grupales de éstas y una placa flotante, en dos profundidades de lámina de agua y dos escenarios de altura de ola.
Resultados: Se estableció el efecto de la profundidad y de la geometría en el flujo para las estructuras básicas y las grupales, así como los campos de velocidad y esfuerzos cortantes presentes en éstas. Para la estructura flotante sólo se analizó el efecto de la profundidad.
Conclusiones: Se encontró que las estructuras que presentan el mejor comportamiento son el prisma triangular para las básicas y el grupo de cubos para las grupales. La estructura cónica es aquella con el peor comportamiento para ambas condiciones. La estructura flotante funciona mejor cuando está más cerca de la superficie y, para la misma profundidad, la configuración grupal de cubos tiene un mejor comportamiento que la estructura flotante.
Regionalización de ecuaciones para el cálculo de curvas de intensidad, duración y frecuencia mediante mapas de isolíneas en el departamento de Boyacá

Published: February 2019

Contexto: Para el diseño de la mayoría de obras civiles resulta necesario contemplar el factor hidrológico dentro de los estudios o diseños correspondientes al proyecto. En el caso de Colombia, se cuenta con una amplia red hidrometeorológica, administrada por distintas entidades que brindan una completa cobertura del país para el registro y cuantificación de los fenómenos hidrológicos. No obstante, la información correspondiente no se encuentra procesada, como en el caso particular de las curvas de Intensidad, Duración y Frecuencia (IDF) y por esto cuando no se dispone de dichas curvas IDF, se recurre a métodos alternativos poco precisos para su estimación, o sencillamente se utiliza una ecuación aplicable a otras regiones cercanas, por lo cual se desarrollan cálculos poco acertados, dadas las diferencias meteorológicas entre regiones.

Método: Con el fin de dar una solución favorable al problema planteado, se desarrolla la investigación expuesta en este artículo, desarrollando un modelo práctico y preciso que permita definir la ecuación que relacione las variables IDF para cualquier punto dado dentro del área de estudio. Esta investigación considera el departamento de Boyacá, aprovechando sus cualidades geográficas y meteorológicas, que lo hacen la zona más adecuada para adelantar el estudio. No obstante, lo desarrollado en esta publicación es aplicable y puede repetirse para las demás regiones del país, como se espera, mediante otros proyectos.

Resultados: El método de las isolíneas fue el modelo aplicado para la regionalización de las curvas IDF del departamento de Boyacá, gracias a la bondad de los resultados presentados en su aplicación y a la facilidad en su uso final. Se encuentra que existe una relación entre los parámetros que describen una ecuación IDF y su ubicación geoespacial, por lo cual posible regionalizar curvas IDF mediante el uso de mapas de isolíneas cuyo desarrollo se presenta en este artículo. Mediante prueba de validación cruzada se encontró que el error, entre un valor real convencionalmente calculado, y un valor extraído de los mapas de regionalización, se encuentra alrededor del 10%.

Conclusiones: Se demostró la efectiva aplicabilidad del método de isolíneas, en la regionalización de curvas IDF, con un alto nivel de certeza. Con los resultados se garantiza la posibilidad de determinar las constantes que describen la ecuación de las relaciones IDF, para cualquier punto del territorio del departamento de Boyacá. Este método, además de garantizar una buena confiabilidad, se distingue por ser bastante sencillo en su aplicación de manera independiente a variables diferentes a la ubicación geoespacial del punto de análisis.

The author analyses the translation of vehicle registration documents issued in Germany, Austria and Switzerland in the light of linguistic pluricentrism. German-language vehicle registration documents, belonging to the genre of official documents, are examined from the point of view of their function, linguistic structure and translation problems which may appear while translating them into Polish. The translation of LSP texts in the context of pluricentrism of the German language has rarely been the subject of scientific analyses. In the theoretical part of the article, the author generally characterizes linguistic pluricentrism and Polish contrastive studies in that respect. In the practical part of the article, he discusses vehicle registration documents as a specific type of official documents, shortly describes them functionally and linguistically and considers translation problems connected with these documents from the perspective of linguistic pluricentrism. Finally, he indicates mistakes in the translation of Austrian vehicle registration documents made by a sworn translator of German.

Immunoglobulin replacement therapy is a mainstay in the treatment of immune deficiencies characterized by antibody failure. Whether the cause is primary or secondary, affected patients frequently present with a history recurrent and complicated infections of the upper and (or) lower respiratory tract. Such replacement therapy has been available since the 1980s, although treatment modalities have since been refined to provide improved protection against infections resulting in reduced morbidity and mortality. Here, we describe an algorithm for diagnosing patients with suspected primary or secondary immunodeficiency, including assessment of clinical, laboratory, and genetic information, when considering initiating immunoglobulin replacement. The increasing availability of molecular genetic techniques will likely result in decreased diagnostic delay for these patients.

Statement of novelty: We describe here an algorithm for diagnosing patients with immunodeficiency requiring immunoglobulin replacement therapy.
A Protective Mechanism against Illusory Perceptions Is Amygdala-Dependent
Authors: Spengler Franny B. , Scheele Dirk , Kaiser Sabrina , Heinrichs Markus , Hurlemann René
Published: February 2019

Most people have a clear sense of body ownership, preserving them from physical harm. However, perceptual body illusions - famously the rubber hand illusion (RHI) - can be elicited experimentally in healthy individuals. We hypothesize that the amygdala, a core component of neural circuits of threat processing, is involved in protective mechanisms against disturbed body perceptions. To test this hypothesis, we started by investigating two monozygotic human twin sisters with focal bilateral amygdala damage due to Urbach–Wiethe disease. Relative to 20 healthy women, the twins exhibited, on two occasions 1 year apart, augmented RHI responses in form of faster illusion onset and increased vividness ratings. Following up on these findings, we conducted a volumetric brain morphometry study involving an independent, gender-mixed sample of 57 healthy human volunteers (36 female, 21 male). Our results revealed a positive correlation between amygdala volume and RHI onset, i.e., the smaller the amygdala, the less time it took the RHI to emerge. This raised the question of whether a similar phenotype would result from experimental amygdala inhibition. To dampen amygdala reactivity, we intranasally administered the peptide hormone oxytocin to the same 57 individuals in a randomized trial before conducting the RHI. Compared with placebo, oxytocin treatment yielded enhanced RHI responses, again evident in accelerated illusion onset and increased vividness ratings. Together, the present series of experiments provides converging evidence for the amygdala's unprecedented role in reducing susceptibility to the RHI, thus protecting the organism from the potentially fatal threats of a distorted bodily self.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTCompelling evidence indicates that the amygdala is of vital importance for danger detection and fear processing. However, lethal threats can arise not only from menacing external stimuli but also from distortions in bodily self-perception. Intriguingly, the amygdala's modulatory role in such illusory body perceptions is still elusive. To probe the amygdala's involvement in illusory body experiences, we conducted a multi-methodological series of experiments in a rare human amygdala lesion model, complemented by a morphological and pharmaco-modulatory experiment in healthy volunteers. Our findings convergently suggest that the amygdala's integrity is indispensable for maintaining an unbiased, precise perception of our bodily self. Hence, the amygdala might shield us against distortions in self-perception and the resultant loss of behavioral control of our organism.
Mitotic Motor KIFC1 Is an Organizer of Microtubules in the Axon

KIFC1 (also called HSET or kinesin-14a) is best known as a multifunctional motor protein essential for mitosis. The present studies are the first to explore KIFC1 in terminally postmitotic neurons. Using RNA interference to partially deplete KIFC1 from rat neurons (from animals of either gender) in culture, pharmacologic agents that inhibit KIFC1, and expression of mutant KIFC1 constructs, we demonstrate critical roles for KIFC1 in regulating axonal growth and retraction as well as growth cone morphology. Experimental manipulations of KIFC1 elicit morphological changes in the axon as well as changes in the organization, distribution, and polarity orientation of its microtubules. Together, the results indicate a mechanism by which KIFC1 binds to microtubules in the axon and slides them into alignment in an ATP-dependent fashion and then cross-links them in an ATP-independent fashion to oppose their subsequent sliding by other motors.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTHere, we establish that KIFC1, a molecular motor well characterized in mitosis, is robustly expressed in neurons, where it has profound influence on the organization of microtubules in a number of different functional contexts. KIFC1 may help answer long-standing questions in cellular neuroscience such as, mechanistically, how growth cones stall and how axonal microtubules resist forces that would otherwise cause the axon to retract. Knowledge about KIFC1 may help researchers to devise strategies for treating disorders of the nervous system involving axonal retraction given that KIFC1 is expressed in adult neurons as well as developing neurons.
Dijete kao vrijednost suvremenoga društva
Authors: Pintar Željka
Published: February 2019

Radom se promatra odgojni pristup djetetu kao društveno pitanje koje je određeno općim socijalnim, gospodarskim, ekonomskim i političkim trendovima u društvu. Odgoj je nemoguće promatrati kao fenomen izoliran od razvojnih tendencija društva u cjelini. Analizira se oblikovanje suvremenoga pedagoškog pristupa usporedno s promjenama političko-ekonomskoga okruženja. Time se pokazuje kako svako socijalno ustrojstvo stvara sebi prikladan odgoj. U tome smislu ne možemo govoriti o univerzalno poželjnom odgoju, već o kulturološki prikladnom odgoju. Izbjegavanjem se vlastitoga pedagoškog centrizma omogućuje objektivniji uvid u realne praktične trendove razvoja pedagoškoga koncepta, što posljedično dovodi do njegova kontinuiranog razvoja. U radu se tako sveobuhvatno napominje i cjelovitost svih pozitivnih obilježja i eventualnih manjkavosti suvremenoga pedagoškog pristupa. Cilj je takvoga razmatranja uočavanje karakteristika aktualne pedagoške paradigme objektivnom percepcijom njezinih obilježja kako bi se sustavno korigirala i razvijala na dobrobit djece kojima je primarno namijenjena.
Logičke bilješke o šahu
Authors: Matić Siniša , Levačić Patrik
Published: February 2019

Namjena je rada pokušati prikazati šahovska pravila kao logičke iskaze te ljudsko (ne računalno) šahovsko razmišljanje kao postupak koji se može rekonstruirati pomoću klasičnih logičkih shema kao što su istinitosno stablo i deduktivni postupak u Fitchevu stilu. Šahovska pravila mogu se prevoditi na jezik logike prvoga reda, iako je mjestimično potrebno primjenjivati i operatore deontičke logike. Ciljevi se u šahovskoj igri mogu prikazati pomoću logičkog kvadrata. Mogućnosti jakih poteza općenito se mogu logički promišljati. Nesavršenost ljudske procjene kvalitete određenih poteza otvara mogućnost primjene elemenata trovrijednosnih logika. Ipak, rad je u većini posvećen mogućnostima primjene elementarne logike na osnove šahovske igre.
Elementi primjene kreativnosti u odgojno-obrazovnom procesu
Authors: Beroš Ivan
Published: February 2019

Svrha je rada pokušati odrediti i analizirati elemente odgojno-obrazovnoga procesa koji utječu na primjenu kreativnosti kao načela i metode u odgoju i obrazovanju. Polazi se od teorijske pozadine situirajući analizirane elemente na kontinuumu utjecaja koji se kreće od kraja na kojem se nalaze elementi što onemogućavaju primjenu kreativnosti do elemenata što je potiču u odgojno-obrazovnom procesu. Analiziraju se elementi proizašli iz anketnoga istraživanja provedenoga sa studentima prve i treće godine preddiplomskoga te druge godine diplomskoga studija pedagogije (N=115) na Fakultetu prirodoslovno-matematičkih i odgojnih znanosti Sveučilišta u Mostaru. Na navedenom je uzorku potvrđena središnja uloga nastavnika kao poticatelja i prepreke ostvarenju kreativnoga obrazovanja, te se analizom dobivenih rezultata nastoje razjasniti uzroci opisanoga stanja koje pokazuje da prevladava mišljenje kako institucionalne odrednice škole onemogućavaju realizaciju kreativnoga obrazovanja. Postavlja se pitanje u kojoj mjeri dobiveni rezultati zrcale stvarna shvaćanja ispitanika koja imaju snagu utjecaja na njihovu teorijsko-praktičnu djelatnost, te koliki je utjecaj prevladavajućih shvaćanja pedagogijske znanosti kojima su studenti izloženi tijekom studiranja. U završnom se dijelu ukazuje na tendencije ekonomiziranja i instrumentaliziranja kreativnoga obrazovanja koje na taj način gubi legitimitet i svoju kritičko-transformacijsku osnovu. Izgubljenu osnovu zamjenjuje ljuštura apologije dominantne pragmatističko-neoliberalne orijentacije u teorijskom i praktičnom razmatranju, analiziranju i implementiranju pedagogijskih teorija, pripadajućih odgojno-obrazovnih načela te metoda usmjerenih na realizaciju kreativnoga obrazovanja u obliku načela i metode.
¿Se considera Nicaragua vecino y actor internacional políticamente conflictivo para Costa Rica?
Authors: Jenkins Arias Fabiana
Published: February 2019

Resumen: Para el 2012 los roces entre Costa Rica y Nicaragua se incrementan en torno al litigio fronterizo sobre Isla Calero. El gobierno nicaragüense emite una serie de amenazas sobre la posibilidad de “recuperar” territorio bajo jurisdicción costarricense así como zonas en disputa, y crea un clima de incertidumbre para Costa Rica. Producto de lo anterior, en el presente documento se analiza la forma en que un medio de comunicación costarricense dio tratamiento a la información y expuso a la ciudadanía el desarrollo del litigio para el 2013. Para ello se desarrolla un análisis de contenido, el cual arroja como resultado que en Costa Rica se percibe a Nicaragua como vecino conflictivo, ajustándose a la construcción de Estado diseñada por la teoría neorrealista, hipótesis planteada para el desarrollo de este artículo. Finalmente, se analizan las implicaciones que ese imaginario social de conflictividad conlleva para las relaciones exteriores entre ambos países.Abstract: By 2012, conflict between Costa Rica and Nicaragua increased due to the border dispute over Isla Calero. The Nicaraguan government expressed a series of threats on the possibility of ‘recovering’ territory under Costa Rican jurisdiction as well as zones in dispute, and created a climate of uncertainty for Costa Rica. This document presents an analysis of the way in which a Costa Rican communication means managed the information and displayed the development of the litigation for 2013. For this purpose, an analysis of content was made, which produces the result that, in Costa Rica, Nicaragua is perceived as a problematic neighbor, matching the construction of the State designed by the neo-realist theory, a hypothesis raised for the development of this article. Finally, the implications that this social construct of conflict entails for the relationship between these two countries.
Pasión, ruptura y humanismo: la poesía centroamericana contemporánea escrita por mujeres
Authors: Calderón Rojas Ericka
Published: February 2019

Históricamente las mujeres han sido subvaloradas en los distintos ámbitos del quehacer humano; la literatura no ha sido la excepción. No obstante, diversas y de gran calidad han sido las creaciones femeninas en este ámbito, tanto a nivel mundial, latinoamericano y centroamericano, especialmente en la época contemporánea. Se evidencia en este artículo la creación femenina centroamericana contemporánea como una ruptura al estatuto patriarcal, tan implantado en las sociedades desde épocas primigenias. Dicha ruptura, contestataria, se realiza a través de la expresión de la corporeidad y la pasión; relacionadas ambas con el concepto del humanismo.
