Knowledge Monitoring Calibration: Individual Differences in Sensitivity and Specificity as Predictors of Academic Achievement
Authors: Francis X. Smith  , Christopher A. Was
Published: December 2019

Knowledge monitoring is an important metacognitive process, which can help students improve study habits and thereby increase academic performance. Which is more useful in predicting test performance: knowing what you know, or knowing what you do not know? Two distinct constructs of knowledge monitoring calibration, sensitivity and specificity, were used along with the more traditional Goodman-Kruskal gamma correlation to predict performance on tests in an undergraduate educational psychology course. The gamma correlation provides a measure of how good one is at judging both items one knows and items one does not. Measures of sensitivity and specificity distinguish between the two. Students in an undergraduate educational psychology course completed a 50-word knowledge monitoring assessment to measure sensitivity, specificity, and gamma. These measures were then correlated with test and final exam scores in the course. It was found that sensitivity, a measure of correctly identifying known items, was the most useful in predicting overall test scores as well as final exam scores. Specificity, on the other hand, had no significant impact on exam performance. Results suggest that sensitivity and specificity may be more meaningful measures of knowledge monitoring calibration when it comes to predicting academic achievement, as well as being better adapted for missing values in any one cell of the data. Further research is recommended to determine in what other situations the measures of sensitivity and specificity may be useful. Findings presented in this study can also be used to help guide attempts to improve student metacognition and strategies.
A study on metaphors used by female teachers to describe their work-related stresses and psychological exhaustion: reflecting on potential interventions
Authors: KAVIANI HOSSEIN , Alshaer Hanouf
Published: December 2019

Aim of the study

The past three decades saw the research development in the field of metaphoric thinking that laid a foundation within cognitive science on which culturally embedded concepts and action tendencies can potentially be explored. The present study aimed to identify female teachers’ perceptions of work-related stresses and emotional challenges in Saudi Arabia.

Subject or material and methods

Using a qualitative methodology, a semi-structured interview along with two metaphor inventories, namely Stem-Sentence Test (SST) and Metaphor Inventory (MI) were employed to collect data. Forty female teachers participated in this study; 20 newly employed (NE) teachers and 20 teachers who have currently applied for early retirement (ER). Thematic analysis was used to categorise participants’ metaphorical expressions and interpret the extracted themes.

Results

The findings show that there are differences and similarities in metaphors generated by the two groups. ER teachers compared with NE participants tended to have more pessimistic views, negative thoughts and unpleasant feelings towards the teaching profession. They expressed metaphors connected to circular, incomplete and dark thematic dimensions. However, both groups produced metaphors linked with restricted and harmful subthemes which implies the inherent systemic shortcomings in the teaching environment for female teachers.

Discussion

The findings might suggest clinical and therapy-related implications.

Conclusions

Cognitive and behaviour change through changing metaphors will be reflected upon.
How to support patients with BRCA genetic mutation? Research review.
Authors: Michałowska Sylwia
Published: December 2019

Aim of the study

According to research conducted so far, the detection of a genetic mutation that increases the risk of developing cancer may be associated with feelings of discomfort, anxiety and apprehension, so it is important to know the needs and expectations externalized by those patients who face the challenge of coping with information about cancer risk. This analyzes the results obtained on this subject in recent studies.

Subject or material and methods

The results of 11 studies conducted in the years 2000-2018 were analyzed. To achieve this aim, the EBSCO, PubMed, PsychARTICLES and MEDLINE databases were searched through.

Results

The results obtained show that both male and female carriers of BRCA mutations have specific support needs. They usually look for valuable content, including information on the procedure for conducting the genetic test and the consequences of obtaining a positive result. Social as well as therapeutic support are also significant. Patients who participated in psychotherapy assessed this form of help as valuable and necessary, especially in relation to the decision making process regarding surgical treatment.

Discussion

Support programs for patients with BRCA mutations implemented in different countries have a chance to become an inspiration for introducing similar solutions in Poland.

Conclusions

This could possibly lead to increased patient involvement in preventive activities or could contribute to the reduction of anxiety or distress that results from having a genetic mutation.

Authors: Pena Assane Luís , Waene Manuel Jossias , Alves Martins Maria Virginia
Published: December 2019

The present research was developed aiming to study macroscopically the effects of karstification that, over the time, affected significantly the carbonated massif in Khózuè, Cheringoma Plateau (Mozambique). The research was carried out from a field study (collecting samples and photos) for a period of one week, in May of 2017, in Khózuè. During the field work, evidences found in nature were recorded as well as, the mode of occurrence of several structures (caves, dolines and speleothems). The karstification in the study area that occurs in the Cheringoma Formation (from Middle Eocene) was greatly conditioned by fractures which influenced the process and formation of caves and dolines. These structures tended to follow morphological patterns depending on guide fractures orientation allied to their genesis and creating, in certain cases, dolines with a cross morphology. In addition to caves and dolines, karstic activity in the Cheringoma Formation massif also created other structures, especially speleothems, which are not widespread, and also preservation/fossilization of plant remains by mineralization. Chemical weathering chemical weathering, but especially internal geodynamic phenomena transformed the Khózuè massif one karst region with peculiar characteristics. ResumoEste trabalho foi desenvolvido com o objetivo de estudar macroscopicamente os efeitos da carstificação que, com o tempo, afetaram significativamente o maciço carbonatado de Khózuè, no platô de Cheringoma (Moçambique). A pesquisa foi realizada a partir de um estudo de campo (coleta de amostras e fotografias), em 2017, em Khózuè. Durante as atividades de campo, foram analisadas as estruturas encontradas na área de estudo, tal como a ocorrência de falhas, cavernas, dolinas e espeleotemas. A carstificação na área de estudo, associada á Formação Cheringoma (do Eoceno Médio), foi muito influenciada por falhas. Estas favoreceram a formação de cavernas e dolinas. Essas estruturas tenderam a assumir padrões morfológicos condicionados pela orientação de falhas. Em certos casos, as falhas deram origem por exemplo a dolinas em forma de cruz. Além de cavernas e dolinas, a atividade cárstica no maciço da Formação Cheringoma deu lugar também a outras estruturas, como por exemplo, espeleotemas encontrados em apenas alguns locais e a processos de preservação/fossilização por mineralização de restos vegetais. A meteorização química, mas sobretudo fenómenos de geodinâmica interna transformaram o maciço calcário de Khózuè uma região cárstica com características peculiares. Palavras-chave: Karstificação.

rocks of the Cuiaba Group, into the inner portion of the Paraguay Belt (Brazil). They occur in a belt (~1200 m) where the host rocks are graphitic phyllites, metadiamictites, metasiltites and sandstones metamorphosed in greenschist facies. In these deposits gold occurs free or included in pyrite related to three types of quartz veins, parallel to Sn (V1), parallel to Sn+1 (V2) and orthogonal (V3) which are rich in gold. The study of outcrops in regional profiles, open mines for gold exploration and drilling holes in the Cangas-Poconé alignment indicate that the preferential location of gold mineralization at (Cangas Facies) is related to the existence of strong lithological control of the mineralizations.The Cangas facies present low permeability of rhythmite, structural arrangement of permeability barriers S0 and S1 at high angle with respect to the fluid migration path and mainly the presence of ferruginous levels acting as geochemical barriers for precipitation of metals in solution in the fluid. The knowledge that gold concentration is related to sedimentary control is important for regional exploration and is a guide for local miners. CONTROLE LITOSTRATIGRÁFICO DOS DEPÓSITOS AURÍFEROS DO LINEAMENTO CANGAS-POCONÉ (CINTURÃO PARAGUAI): IMPLICAÇÕES PARA A EXPLORAÇÃO REGIONAL ResumoOs depósitos de Cangas-Poconé estão hospedados em rochas metassedimentares do Grupo Cuiabá, na porção interna do Cinturão do Paraguai (Brasil). Eles ocorrem em um cinturão (~ 1200 m), onde as rochas hospedeiras são filitos, metadiamictitos, metasiltitos e arenitos grafitados, metamorfoseados em fácies de xisto verde. Nesses depósitos, o ouro ocorre livre ou incluído em pirita relacionada a três tipos de veios de quartzo. O estudo de afloramentos em perfis regionais, minas abertas para exploração de ouro e perfurações no alinhamento Cangas-Poconé indica que a localização preferencial da mineralização de ouro em (Cangas Facies) está relacionada à existência de forte controle litológico.O conhecimento de que a mineralização de ouro está relacionada ao controle sedimentar é importante para a exploração regional e é um guia para os mineradores locais. Palavras-chave: Ouro.

O EFEITO DE INDETERMINAÇÃO: UMA DISCUSSÃO A PARTIR DA FORMAÇÃO DISCURSIVA DO DISCURSO PEDAGÓGICO
Authors: Pimenta Natal Rosyane Mayre
Published: December 2019

Neste estudo, buscamos pensar quais sentidos o efeito de indeterminação coloca em circulação no discurso pedagógico. Mais do que isso, pretendemos discutir como estes sentidos emergem. Para tanto, é preciso mobilizar noções próprias do campo da análise de discurso francesa, indo além da materialidade linguística. Entendendo que o discurso é o lugar onde os sentidos se materializam, entendemos também que o discurso é um conceito teórico e metodológico que materializa o ideológico. Neste sentido, a Análise de Discurso não considera o discurso como simples transmissão de informação, mas sim como algo que coloca em relação os sujeitos e os sentidos. Em outras palavras, discurso é efeito de sentidos entre os sujeitos. O significado de um discurso será, então, constituído a partir das condições sócio-históricas em que foi proferido ou lido. O efeito de indeterminação ocorre a partir de alguns elementos linguísticos. Tais elementos estabelecem relações intra e interdiscursivas. Discutiremos estas questões a partir da noção de terceira-pessoa discursiva, proposto por Indursky (1992) e do efeito de indeterminação do sujeito do discurso no interior do enunciado. Mobilizamos duas sequências discursivas que dizem respeito às falas de dois professores. Tais falas são tomadas como discurso, em um gesto interpretativo que é próprio do pesquisador que se inscreve no campo teórico da Análise de Discurso. Os enunciados foram produzidos em uma situação de conversa entre o pesquisador e os sujeitos participantes desta pesquisa, que faz parte de uma pesquisa maior, relativa ao processo de doutoramento da pesquisadora.

O texto destaca a potência do aporte teórico da Análise do Discurso para se pensar e praticar o ensino de língua na escola. A partir de três experiências de ensino na educação básica que tomaram por base a abordagem da AD, discutimos o impacto dessa teoria em práticas de leitura, escrita, oralidade e reflexão sobre a língua realizadas em escolas de rede pública, considerando as diferentes condições de produção envolvidas nessas experiências.  Refletir sobre a relação entre a AD e o ensino é deslocar os SENTIDOS QUE VÊM SENDO INSTITUCIONALIZADOS para a escola E SEUS SUJEITOS – pela fala pública, pelos documentos oficiais, pelo discurso pedagógico (ORLANDI, 1995).

Published: December 2019

O rompimento da barragem do Fundão, localizada no município de Mariana (MG), foi responsável pelo maior desastre ocasionado por uma empresa de mineração, sendo considerada a maior catástrofe ambiental já ocorrida no Brasil. Foram lançados no meio ambiente cerca de 34 milhões de m³ de rejeito de mineração de ferro, pela mineradora Samarco – empresa associada a empresa Vale do Rio Doce e a empresa britânica BHP Billiton. Foram atingidos rios, córregos e vegetações, além do soterramento de residências e propriedades deixando muitas famílias desabrigadas, sem seus meios de subsistência, e fragilizadas pelos óbitos de entes próximos. Em poucas horas, após o rompimento da barragem, a lama chegou ao rio Doce, provocando aumento na turbidez da água e promovendo a morte de milhares de peixes e outros animais. Neste trabalho foi feita uma busca bibliográfica dos principais impactos ambientais gerados pelo desastre, separados em três categorias de danos: ambiental, socioambiental e humano, bem como os planos de recuperação de cada um. Os resultados mostraram que os impactos tiveram uma magnitude e complexidade tão grandes que muitas áreas serão impossibilitadas de retornarem ao seu estado anterior e alguns planos demorarão muitos anos para serem concluídos.
The Intellectual Magician: Sociological Analysis of the Muslim Dissidents
Authors: Brahimi Mohamed Amine
Published: December 2019

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the constitutive figure of the Islamophobic discourse: the Muslim dissident. We establish a typology of the main figures that fall under the definition of “Muslim dissidents,” as well as of the social context through which they operate. We identify dissident Muslims as a social group through their intellectual contributions and compare their trajectories as well as their social attributes. This allows us to analyze their position and the medium of their intellectual statements.
Pixel reassignment in image scanning microscopy: a re-evaluation
Authors: Sheppard Colin J. R. , Castello Marco , Tortarolo Giorgio , Deguchi Takahiro , Koho Sami V. , Vicidomini Giuseppe , Diaspro Alberto
Published: December 2019

Image scanning microscopy is a technique based on confocal microscopy, in which the confocal pinhole is replaced by a detector array, and the resulting image is reconstructed, usually by the process of pixel reassignment. The detector array collects most of the fluorescent light, so the signal-to-noise ratio is much improved compared with confocal microscopy with a small pinhole, while the resolution is improved compared with conventional (wide-field) microscopy. In previous studies, it has usually been assumed that pixels should be reassigned by a constant factor, to a point midway between the illumination and detection spots. Here it is shown that the peak intensity of the effective point spread function (PSF) can be further increased by 4% by a new choice of the pixel reassignment factor. For an array of two Airy units, the peak of the effective PSF is 1.90 times that of a conventional microscope, and the transverse resolution is 1.53 times better. It is confirmed that image scanning microscopy gives optical sectioning strength identical to that of a confocal microscope with a pinhole equal to the size of the detector array. However, it is shown that image scanning microscopy exhibits axial resolution superior to a confocal microscope with a pinhole the same size as the detector array. For a two-Airy-unit array, the axial resolution is 1.34 times better than in a conventional microscope for the standard reassignment factor, and 1.28 times better for the new reassignment factor. The axial resolution of a confocal microscope with a two-Airy-unit pinhole is only 1.04 times better than conventional microscopy. We also examine the signal-to-noise ratio of a point object in a uniform background (called the detectability), and show that it is 1.6 times higher than in a confocal microscope.

Authors: Michon Jérôme , Geiger Sarah , Li Lan , Goncalves Claudia , Lin Hongtao , Richardson Kathleen , Jia Xinqiao , Hu Juejun
Published: December 2019

3D photonics promises to expand the reach of photonics by enabling the extension of traditional applications to nonplanar geometries and adding novel functionalities that cannot be attained with planar devices. Available material options and device geometries are, however, limited by current fabrication methods. In this work, we pioneer a method that allows for placement of integrated photonic device arrays at arbitrary predefined locations in 3D using a fabrication process that capitalizes on the buckling of a 2D pattern. We present theoretical and experimental validation of the deterministic buckling process, thus demonstrating implementation of the technique to realize what we believe to be the first fully packaged 3D integrated photonics platform. Application of the platform for mechanical strain sensing is further demonstrated.
Fabrication-tolerant Fourier transform spectrometer on silicon with broad bandwidth and high resolution

Published: December 2019

We report an advanced Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) on silicon with significant improvement compared with our previous demonstration in [Nat. Commun. 9, 665 (2018)2041-1723]. We retrieve a broadband spectrum (7 THz around 193 THz) with 0.11 THz or sub nm resolution, more than 3 times higher than previously demonstrated [Nat. Commun. 9, 665 (2018)2041-1723]. Moreover, it effectively solves the issue of fabrication variation in waveguide width, which is a common issue in silicon photonics. The structure is a balanced Mach–Zehnder interferometer with 10 cm long serpentine waveguides. Quasi-continuous optical path difference between the two arms is induced by changing the effective index of one arm using an integrated heater. The serpentine arms utilize wide multi-mode waveguides at the straight sections to reduce propagation loss and narrow single-mode waveguides at the bending sections to keep the footprint compact and avoid modal crosstalk. The reduction of propagation loss leads to higher spectral efficiency, larger dynamic range, and better signal-to-noise ratio. Also, for the first time to our knowledge, we perform a thorough systematic analysis on how the fabrication variation on the waveguide widths can affect its performance. Additionally, we demonstrate that using wide waveguides efficiently leads to a fabrication-tolerant device. This work could further pave the way towards a mature silicon-based FTS operating with both broad bandwidth (over 60 nm) and high resolution suitable for integration with various mobile platforms.

To obtain a deeper understanding of the impact of photodarkening on laser properties, the evolution of the mode instability threshold and output power in fiber amplifiers was investigated. After pumping for 300 min, the mode instability threshold of the pristine fiber dropped from 770 to 612 W, and the periodic fluctuation of the output power became intense, finally reaching 100 W. To address the detrimental effects originating from photodarkening,

Published: December 2019

Moderne Medien bestimmen das Berufsleben ständig, überall und tiefgreifend. Auch für die Profession des Coachings gibt es bereits zahlreiche digitalisierte Angebote. Trotz vielfach benannter Vorteile existiert bislang nur wenig Forschung zur Digitalisierung im Coaching. Der vorliegende Artikel illustriert anhand zweier empirischer Untersuchungen Hintergründe des Nutzungsverhaltens digitalisierten Coachings bei externen Coaches und Personalverantwortlichen in deutschen Unternehmen. Unter Verwendung der Theorie des geplanten Verhaltens nach Ajzen (1985, 1991) zeigt sich bei beiden Berufsgruppen, dass die subjektive Norm in Form von Peers, Organisationen sowie der Gesellschaft den größten Einfluss auf die Intention hat, digitale Angebote und Tools im Coaching zu nutzen.
ANTECEDENTES Y CAUSAS DEL PROCESO Y PENSAMIENTO INDEPENDENTISTA EN LAS COLONIAS HISPANO LUSAS Y SU VÍNCULO CON LA IDEA DE JUSTICIA
Authors: Fernández Edgardo Romero
Published: December 2019

Las acciones de dominación por parte de las distintas metrópolis, que colonizaron el territorio que se conocerá posteriormente como América Latina engendraron desde su inicio una acción y un sentimiento anti injerencista, que responderá a lo que será y es conocido en la literatura científica como justicia. Las acciones encaminadas a otorgar y/o restablecer la justicia en los territorios de los pueblos originarios de América a su vez generaron una acción y pensamiento independentista en la región, por lo que se puede afirmar que la idea de justicia en el sentido occidental que posee este término está fuertemente ligada al proceso de colonización y a su contrario: el pensamiento anticolonial y la acción independentista en América latina.

The seaweed resources of Israel in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea
Authors: Israel Alvaro , Golberg Alexander , Neori Amir
Published: December 2019

In spite of the natural harsh marine environments and continuous global change stressors affecting the Levant basin, the Israeli marine flora in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea is quite diverse, with about 300 recognized species. Such high seaweed biodiversity for a small maritime area is remarkable compared to the ca. 1200 species described for the entire Eastern Mediterranean Sea. Since about the year 1890, the Levant basin has been hosting over 115 seaweeds species that migrated from the Indo-Pacific through the Suez Canal. Indeed, approximately 16% of the marine flora is regarded as invasive or exotic to the Israeli shores, in a process that constantly reshapes seaweed populations and their biodiversity. In spite of significant contributions by Israeli scientists to the general biology and technologies for seaweed cultivation worldwide, Israel has little historical and cultural tradition of commercial seaweed cultivation, or use. At present, only two commercial companies are engaged in land-based seaweed cultivation (Ulvasp. andGracilariasp.) with a number of products marketed locally and abroad. Recently, offshore cultivation and biorefinery approaches have been explored, but not yet commercialized.

Remote Sensing Monitoring of Soil Moisture in the Daliuta Coal Mine Based on SPOT 5/6 and Worldview-2
Authors: Liu Ying , Yue Hui
Published: December 2019

To understand the influence of underground mining disturbances on the shallow soil moisture in the Daliuta coal mine, remote sensing monitoring of the temporal and spatial evolution of surface soil moisture and the influence of mining on multi-source, multi-temporal and high spatial resolution remote sensing data were carried out. The scale effect of monitoring the soil moisture at different scales was analyzed using the Scaled Soil Moisture Monitor Index (S-SMMI). In this paper, SPOT 5/6 and Worldview-2 were used as the data source and mainly made up two aspects of the research: 1) based on the three SPOT data sets with the use of S-SMMI from different angles from the Daliuta mine from nearly three years of soil moisture temporal and spatial changes, the results show that the perturbation has a negative effect on the shallow soil moisture in the Daliuta coal mine, and average soil moisture of the mining area is smaller than the non-mining area, but the surface ecological construction has effectively improved the impact of the underground mining disturbance on the surface soil moisture. 2) the scale conversion of Worldview-2 data was carried out based on the resampling method. S-SMMI was used to analyze the scale effect of soil moisture monitoring at different scales. The results show that the difference between the soil moisture is only 0.0016 during the conversion process of 2 m-30 m.
Stability Analysis of a Slurry Trench in Cohesive-Frictional Soils
Authors: Li Wei , Zhang Chengping
Published: December 2019

The slurry trench has become increasingly common in underground engineering and the stability of a slurry trench has been an important design issue. Although many studies have focused on the overall stability of a slurry trench, few of that are related to its local stability. Based on the limit analysis, both two dimensional and three dimensional rotational failure mechanisms for the local failure of a slurry trench in a sandwiched weak layer are proposed, and the upper solutions of 2D and 3D safety factors for local failure mechanisms are derived to evaluate the stability of a slurry trench. Moreover, a numerical analysis combined with the strength reduction technique is performed to investigate the local stability and the local failure process of a slurry trench. The proposed analytical method is verified through the comparison with the results of FLAC3D. Finally, a parametric study on the influences of geometric and geologic parameters on the local stability of the slurry trench are investigated. The results show that the investigation on the local stability of a slurry trench is effective and reasonable, which can provide a reference for the engineers in the practical engineering.

Cenozoic basalt regions contain various natural resources that can be used for socio-economic development. Different quantitative and qualitative methods have been applied to understand the geological and geomorphological characteristics of basalt formations. Nowadays the integration of remote sensing and geographic information systems (GIS) has become a powerful method to distinguish geological formations. In this paper, authors combined satellite and fieldwork data to analyze the structure and morphology of highland geological formations in order to distinguish two main volcanic eruption episodes. Based on remote sensing analysis in this study, different spectral band ratios were generated to select the best one for basalt classification. Lastly, two spectral combinations (including band ratios 4/3, 6/2, 7/4 in Landsat 8 and 3/2, 5/1, 7/3 in Landsat 7) were chosen for the Maximum Likelihood classification. The final geological map based on the integration of Landsat 7 and 8 outcomes shows precisely the boundary of the basalt formations with the accuracy up to 93.7%. This outcome contributed significantly to the correction of geological maps. In further studies, authors suggest the integration of Landsat 7 and 8 data in geological studies and natural resource and environmental management at both local and regional scales.
The Common Law (And Not Roman) Origins of Amicus Curiae in International Law – Debunking a Fake News Item
Authors: Crema Luigi
Published: December 2019

The possibility for private entities interested in international trials but without the legal requirements to participate as a party was precluded, in a classical vision of international law made for states and addressed to states. At present, however, with some notable exceptions, several international jurisdictions allow for the submission of amicus curiae briefs. These briefs were introduced to international courts by common law lawyers. Legal literature generally identifies it as an institution of classical Roman law. This paper will show that this assumption is, however, doubtful. An examination of the sources cited by an important dictionary and other decades-old legal scholarship relied upon today as establishing the Roman origins of amicus curiae, and a fresh study of Roman and later continental European primary sources reveal a different picture: in reality, there is neither a basis for grounding the amicus curiae in Roman law, nor is there a basis for grounding it in the medieval continental ius commune. The primary source is most likely English common law and, not surprisingly, it was common law lawyers who introduced the briefs into international litigation.

Background

The prevalence of diabetes mellitus continues to increase every year, including in Indonesia. To prevent complications of diabetes mellitus, patients need to adhere to therapy. The aim of this study was to assess patient adherence to diabetes mellitus drug therapy at Tanjung Karang Primary Health Care Center, Mataram.

Methods

A total of 60 participants were recruited in April–May 2019. The inclusion criteria of respondents were patients who were diagnosed with diabetes mellitus, treated at Tanjung Karang Primary Health Care Center for more than 1 month, and aged at least 18 years. Assessment of adherence to therapy was carried out using a validated questionnaire, which was the Adherence to Refill Medication Scale (ARMS) questionnaire. The scale used was the Likert scale (1–4) with a score range of 12–48. The higher the total score, the lower the compliance.

Results

The average age of the respondents was 54.97 years. The average ARMS score was 19.52 ± 5.688 with the lowest score of 12 and the highest score of 33. Among all respondents, only 8.3% had good adherence (total score of 12). Based on the subscales, the average score for refilling medicine and intentional nonadherence in taking medicine was 7.18 ± 2.383, the unintentional nonadherence in taking medicine was 8.13 ± 2.764, and the persistence in refilling medicine was 4.12 ± 1.738.

Conclusions

Patient medication adherence to the treatment of diabetes mellitus needs to be improved. An approach through healthcare professionals can be achieved so that the therapeutic outcome will be achieved.
Lost in Migration – Mirandese at a Crossroads
Authors: Martins Cláudia , Ferreira Sérgio
Published: December 2019

The linguistic rights of Mirandese were enshrined in Portugal in 1999, though its “discovery” dates back to the very end of the 19th century at the hands of Leite de Vasconcellos. For centuries, it was the first or only language spoken by people living in the northeast of Portugal, particularly the district of Miranda do Douro. As a minority language, it has always moved among three dimensions. On the one hand, the need to assert and defend this language and have it acknowledged by the country, which proudly believe(d) in their monolingual history. Unavoidably, this has ensued the action of translation, especially active from the mid of the 20th century onwards, with an emphasis on the translation of the Bible and Portuguese canonical literature, as well as other renowned literary forms (e.g. The Adventures of Asterix). Finally, the third axis lies in migration, either within Portugal or abroad. Between the 1950s and the 1960s, Mirandese people were forced to leave Miranda do Douro and villages in the outskirts in the thousands. They fled not only due to the deeply entrenched poverty, but also the almost complete absence of future prospects, enhanced by the fact that they were regarded as not speaking “good” Portuguese, but rather a “charra” language, and as ignorant backward people. This period coincided with the building of dams on the river Douro and the cultural and linguistic shock that stemmed from this forceful contact, which exacerbated their sense of not belonging and of social shame. Bearing all this in mind, we seek to approach the role that migration played not only in the assertion of Mirandese as a language in its own right, but also in the empowerment of new generations of Mirandese people, highly qualified and politically engaged in the defence of this minority language, some of whom were former migrants. Thus, we aim to depict Mirandese’s political situation before and after the endorsement of the Portuguese Law no. 7/99.
Bidirectional Optogenetically-Induced Plasticity of Evoked Responses in the Rat Medial Prefrontal Cortex Can Impair or Enhance Cognitive Set-Shifting

Chronic stress compromises cognition, including executive function mediated in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). To investigate mechanisms underlying these processes, we use chronic unpredictable stress (CUS), which reduces activity in the mPFC and impairs cognitive set-shifting, a measure of cognitive flexibility in laboratory rats. It has been shown that CUS attenuates the local electrical field potential response evoked in the mPFC by stimulation of the ascending excitatory afferent from the mediodorsal thalamus (MDT). Thus, in this study, to investigate the role that such changes in afferent-evoked responsivity of the mPFC might play in the cognitive deficits induced by CUS, we used optogenetics to directly induce plastic changes in the thalamic-mPFC afferent pathway. Glutamatergic neurons in the MDT were virally-induced to express the ChETA variant of channelrhodopsin. Then, to first validate the optogenetic induction of plasticity, long-term depression (LTD) or long-term potentiation (LTP) were induced by laser stimulation of ChETA-expressing terminals in the mPFC of anesthetized rats. In subsequent experiments, induction of opto-LTD in awake animals produced set-shifting deficits similar to those induced by CUS. By contrast, inducing opto-LTP in rats that had received prior CUS treatment corrected the stress-induced deficit in set-shifting. These results suggest that stress-induced plasticity in the thalamic-mPFC pathway is sufficient to produce stress-induced cognitive deficits, and may represent a novel target for effective therapeutic intervention to correct cognitive impairment in stress-related psychiatric disorders.
Different Activation Mechanisms of Excitatory Networks in the Rat Oculomotor Integrators for Vertical and Horizontal Gaze Holding
Authors: Saito Yasuhiko , Sugimura Taketoshi
Published: December 2019

Gaze holding in the horizontal and vertical directions is separately controlled via the oculomotor neural integrators, the prepositus hypoglossi nucleus (PHN) and the interstitial nucleus of Cajal (INC), respectively. Our previousin vitrostudies demonstrated that transient, high-frequency local stimulation of the PHN and the INC increased the frequency of spontaneous EPSCs that lasted for several seconds. The sustained EPSC response of PHN neurons was attributed to the activation of local excitatory networks primarily mediated via Ca2+-permeable AMPA (CP-AMPA) receptors and Ca2+-activated nonselective cation (CAN) channels. However, the contribution of CP-AMPA receptors to the activation of INC excitatory networks appeared to be small. In this study, we clarified the mechanisms of excitatory network activation in the PHN and INC using whole-cell recordings in rat brainstem slices. Although physiological and histological analyses showed that neurons that expressed CP-AMPA receptors existed not only in the PHN but also in the INC, the effect of a CP-AMPA receptor antagonist on the sustained EPSC response was significantly weaker in INC neurons than in PHN neurons. Meanwhile, the effect of an NMDA receptor antagonist on the sustained EPSC response was significantly stronger in INC neurons than in PHN neurons. Furthermore, the current and the charge transfer mediated via NMDA receptors were significantly larger in INC neurons than in PHN neurons. These results strongly suggest that these excitatory networks are activated via different synaptic mechanisms: a CP-AMPA receptor and CAN channel-dependent mechanism and an NMDA receptor-dependent mechanism in horizontal and vertical integrators, respectively.
