BACKGROUND : Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) secondary to systemic hypertension (HTN) may be associated with left atrial (LA) functional abnormalities. We aimed to characterize LA mechanics in HCM and HTN and determine any correlation with the extent of fibrosis measured by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in HCM patients. METHODS: Two-dimensional speckle tracking-derived longitudinal LA function was acquired from apical views in 60 HCM patients, 60 HTN patients, and 34 age-matched controls. HCM patients also underwent CMR, with measurement of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) extension. Association with LA strain parameters was analyzed. RESULTS: The mean LV ejection fraction did not differ across groups. The E/e’ ratio was only preserved in the control group and significantly impaired in the HCM group. LA mechanics were significantly reduced in HCM, compared to the HTN group. LA strain rate in systole (LA-SRs) and late diastole (LA-SRa) were the best discriminators of HCM, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.8, followed by LA strain in systole (LA ɛsys) (AUC 0.76). LA-SRs and LA-SRa had high specificity (89% and 91%, respectively) and LA ɛsys had sensitivity of 80%. LA strain rate in early diastole (LA-SRe) was moderately correlated with the extension of LGE (r 2 0.42, p=0.027) CONCLUSIONS: LA-SRs and LA-SRa were the best discriminators for LVH secondary to HCM. LA-SRe was best correlated with the degree of fibrosis assessed by CMR. These findings suggest that LA mechanics can be potential predictors of disease severity in HCM.

Published: October 2019

O avanço tecnológico e a obsolescência programada, combinados com o elevado consumo de equipamentos eletrônicos, produzem uma grande quantidade de resíduos desses produtos. Como, ao ser descartado inadequadamente, esse e-lixo pode ser um risco ao homem e ao meio ambiente, a preocupação com sua destinação tem aumentado junto à sociedade e aos governos. Este estudo tem por objetivo verificar a gestão do lixo eletrônico médico hospitalar em hospitais públicos federais do Rio de Janeiro. Foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa, com finalidade descritiva, utilizando pesquisa de campo. Os resultados apontam que: a maioria dos hospitais estudados utiliza os equipamentos o máximo possível e só se desfaz deles quando não há mais possibilidade de mantê-los; a doação dos equipamentos é o desfazimento mais comum; os entraves burocráticos são o maior obstáculo; e os hospitais de pesquisa, em comparação com os assistenciais, investem em aparelhos tecnologicamente mais modernos. Para trabalhos futuros, é recomendado fazer uma análise mais abrangente sobre a gestão de outros tipos de equipamentos eletrônicos, com a finalidade de verificar se as dificuldades são as mesmas

Published: October 2019

A Leishmaniose é uma zoonose com crescente urbanização no Brasil desde os anos 1990, que têm preocupado as autoridades de saúde pública pela alta incidência no país. Sua ocorrência está associada às alterações no ambiente e ao constante movimento migratório da população das periferias dos grandes centros, a exemplo das demais doenças negligenciadas que estão relacionadas a fatores socioeconômicos, culturais, étnico-raciais, psicológicos e comportamentais. Tendo em vista, as manifestações da Leishmaniose visceral e tegumentar em Sergipe, o estudo buscou identificar os municípios mais afetados no período de 2007 a 2017, visando oferecer subsídios para ações de vigilância e controle da doença. O método utilizado envolveu uma pesquisa de natureza bibliográfica, exploratória, observacional, obtida por fontes secundárias, envolvendo um levantamento bibliográfico em bancos de dados do DATASUS, Sistema de Informação de Mortalidade (SIM) e Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (SINAN). Os principais resultados evidenciaram a incidência da doença concentrada na “grande Aracaju” com 90% dos casos registrados, sendo 80% para Leishmaniose Visceral (LV).

Water is the most important limiting factor of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cropping systems in semi-arid conditions of Southern Punjab. A two-year field experiment (comprising of cotton-wheat cropping) was conducted in Vehari (Southern Punjab) to calibrate and validate a DSSAT model in the climatic conditions of 1 × CO2 concentration (conc.) (current). The model simulation during calibration was good with errors up to 4.7, 4.4, 10.1, 6.4 and −5.4% for days to anthesis, days to maturity, total dry matter, yield and HI, respectively for the cotton-wheat cropping system. During model validation, the error percentages were also under reasonable limits. So, the model was run under 2 × CO2 conc. (future) conditions and it showed a difference of −7.3 to 19.7% anthesis days, maturity days, total dry matter, grain yield, crop ET and WUEGY with respect to current CO2 concentration. Simulation by DSSAT showed that the cotton cultivar MNH-886 and wheat cultivar Lassani-2008 were better utilizers of limited water resources under changed climatic conditions in semi-arid conditions of Vehari, which was due to their better water use efficiency. Wheat and cotton cultivars with high water use efficiency would enable crop growth to maintain high crop yields under increased CO2 and its associated consequences in future.

As políticas de formação e a crise da profissionalização docente: por onde passa a valorização?
Authors: Oliveira Dalila Andrade
Published: October 2019

A busca pela compreensão dos fatores que levam à melhoria da educação tem levado certas abordagens a colocar o professor como o principal responsável pela tarefa educativa e, consequentemente, por seus resultados, deslocando o foco das estruturas e das relações sociais que envolvem o contexto escolar. As políticas educacionais na atualidade refletem essa preocupação ao situar o docente no centro do debate. Há um sentimento generalizado de que a profissão docente sofre um processo de desvalorização. A instituição da Lei do Piso Salarial Profissional Nacional e a criação do PARFOR são algumas das políticas orientadas na direção de maior valorização docente. A preocupação em articular políticas de formação às condições de profissionalização é resultante do acentuado peso dado à formação na definição e certificação da profissão. Este texto, baseando-se em dados de pesquisa, procura discutir algumas correlações entre formação inicial e formação continuada com a remuneração, na tentativa de evidenciar seus nexos para maior valorização docente.
Ensino da argumentação: construindo práticas
Authors: Leal Telma Ferraz , Brandão Ana Carolina Perrusi
Published: October 2019

Este artigo, com base em pressupostos sociointeracionistas, tem o objetivo de analisar situações didáticas com potencial para desenvolver habilidades argumentativas dos alunos. Foram observadas 15 aulas de cinco professoras do 5º ano do Ensino Fundamental de escolas públicas. As aulas foram registradas em áudio e a abordagem de análise de conteúdo orientou o tratamento dos dados. Setenta e cinco relatórios de aulas foram analisados. Constatou-se que as professoras propõem discussões orais, atividades de leitura e produção de textos que demandam habilidades argumentativas. Entretanto, a condução dessas propostas não favorece o desenvolvimento das capacidades de produzir textos da ordem do argumentar e nem de leitura crítica de textos, com confronto de pontos de vista.
Por uma sociologia do improvável: percursos atípicos e sucessos inesperados de jovens na escola francesa
Authors: Bergier Bertrand , Xypas Constantin
Published: October 2019

O presente artigo se interessa por uma população de ex-alunos de escolas francesas que, após terem sido reprovados por, pelo menos, duas vezes durante o ensino fundamental e, conseguiram fazer um curso profissionalizante, ou técnico, e no final do percurso obter no mínimo um Mestrado. Apesar das opiniões negativas dos seus professores e, muitas vezes de seus pais, os estudantes que fazem parte da nossa pesquisa, se tornaram médicos, advogados, engenheiros etc. Como explicar esses sucessos “inesperados”, estatisticamente marginais e sociologicamente improváveis? Para responder a essa questão estudamos as trajetórias de uma população de 322 jovens adultos. A investigação compõe-se dos seguintes elementos: uma entrevista biográfica sobre o percurso escolar; um questionário; e por fim, a “prática restituidora”. A explicação mais frequente é a ideologia do “herói” em que se atribui ao aluno a totalidade do mérito. Mas a pesquisa vai revelar a existência de várias condições sociológicas sem as quais o jovem não teria obtido à graduação e ainda menos à pós-graduação.

Published: October 2019

The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of USDA quality grade on beef eating quality of top sirloin steaks when cooked to multiple degrees of doneness (DOD). Beef top sirloin butts (N = 60; 15/quality grade) were collected to equally represent 4 quality grades [Prime, Top Choice (modest00 to moderate100), Low Choice, and Select]. Steaks were assigned to 1 of 3 DOD: rare (60°C), medium (71°C), and well-done (77°C). Steaks were allocated to either consumer sensory analysis, trained sensory analysis, fat and moisture analysis, or Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBSF). There were no interactions (P > 0.05) for all consumer ratings of palatability traits, indicating increases in DOD had the same impact across all quality grades. Prime steaks had greater (P < 0.05) juiciness ratings than all other quality grades, except for Top Choice. As DOD increased, consumer ratings and the percentage of steaks rated acceptable for each palatability trait decreased (P < 0.05; rare > medium > well-done). There was a quality grade × DOD interaction (P < 0.05) for trained sensory panel juiciness scores. When cooked to medium, Prime and Top Choice steaks were rated higher (P < 0.05) for juiciness than Low Choice and Select steaks, while there were no differences at all other DOD. Similar to consumer ratings, trained panel ratings of tenderness decreased (P < 0.05) as DOD increased (rare > medium > well-done). Lastly, there was no quality grade by DOD interaction (P > 0.05) for Warner-Bratzler shear force. These results indicate that regardless of the DOD top sirloin steaks are cooked to, quality grade had minimal impact on palatability. Therefore, it is unnecessary for consumers, retailers, and foodservice to pay premium prices for higher quality top sirloin steaks, as the same eating experience will be provided.

Diversification through ‘fun in the farm’: analyzing structural factors affecting agritourism in Tennessee
Authors: Khanal Aditya R. , Honey Ummey , Omobitan Omobolaji
Published: October 2019

With recent development, agritourism – visiting a working agricultural setting such as farm and ranch for leisure, recreation, or educational purposes – is gaining popularity in the US. Agritourism can be considered as a viable alternative agricultural enterprise to enhance income and sustainability of farms. This study maps agritourism locations and analyzes the structural factors affecting agritourism location and establishments. Using zip-code level location information, county-level data from Tennessee and spatial regression models, we found significant effects of rural factors, demographics, and educational-, economic-, and cultural- capital factors and their interactions on the location and establishment of agritourism farms. The counties lagging behind in agritourism can focus on educational and capital related factors to enable farms to participate in agritourism activities. Rural areas can capitalize the recreational and natural aspects of agriculture complementing it with agritourism activities. Additionally, our significant spatial terms and tests suggest for the need to test and account for potential spatial effects on studies focused on structural factors and location decision models.

El artículo que aquí se presenta expone los resultados parciales de la caracterización del turista internacional que arriba a Villavicencio, interpretando la valoración que éste hace del destino en materia de expectativas, satisfacción y evaluación. Los datos obtenidos aunque no son concluyentes, sí permiten marcar una tendencia sobre el posicionamiento que tiene Villavicencio a nivel internacional, lo que contribuye en la construcción de la marca ciudad y sirve como punto de partida para sugerir estrategias que visibilicen y fortalezcan la ciudad. La metodología utilizada es cuantitativa y los datos se procesaron a través de los softwares Excel y SPSS. A nivel general se puede inferir que la satisfacción de los hombres se soporta en experiencias más concretas, mientras que en las mujeres el soporte se encuentra en situaciones más abstractas.
Psychological Capital and Robotic Process Automation: Good, Bad, or Somewhere In-Between?
Authors: Harris Megan , Riley Jennifer , Venkatesh Roopa
Published: October 2019

Our proposed study applies Psychological Capital (PsyCap) to the Industry 4.0 literature, and specifically, to Robotic Process Automation (RPA). We examine two issues: are accountants ready for the changes brought about by RPA, and will accountants overrely on RPA to provide accurate information? PsyCap is a core construct that encompasses four dimensions of an individual's mental state. Drawn from positive psychology, it focuses on individuals' strengths, rather than weaknesses. We expect higher levels of PsyCap will be associated with higher levels of readiness for and reliance on RPA. This could be dangerous, because the output of RPA may not always be reliable. We propose a quasi-experiment to gather data from accountants. Understanding the relationship between PsyCap and behavior is important because PsyCap is a state-like construct, which can be developed and strengthened. Accounting firms and organizations can implement mechanisms to encourage readiness for RPA but discourage overreliance without assurance.
La Representación Social de la Economía Socialista en Venezuela

Published: October 2019

Este estudio tuvo como finalidad de velar la representación social existente sobre la economía socialista y conocer las expectativas creadas por su implementación, por ello se trazó como objetivo de investigación la descripción de los supuestos y percepciones presentes en las representaciones sociales iniciales de la economía socialista y el determinar cuáles fueron las expectativas generadas por la implementación de la economía socialista en Venezuela. La investigación tuvo como soporte la concepción dialéctica crítica de la sociedad que mira la transición como la totalidad en movimiento real siendo empleado el enfoque cualitativo de investigación, basado en la teoría fundamentada para ayudar a reconocer dentro de la compleja totalidad del entramado de relaciones sociales, la sustantividad de las representaciones sociales de la Economía Socialista, así como las expectativas creadas por su implementación. Los aspectos descritos nos permiten decir que la representación social de la Economía Socialista se presenta en un nivel superficial, ya que algunas de las determinaciones esenciales que forman parte de la construcción socialista y de su economía no son referenciadas de manera precisa. En relación a lo que esperan los diversos actores sociales por la implementación de la economía socialista dentro del cambio epocal en Venezuela, esta debe orientarse a proveer los satisfactores básicos para la sociedad, si no existen satisfactorios básicos, ninguna acción o discurso por muy esperanzador puede funcionar, colocando cada vez más cuesta arriba la construcción de la Economía Socialista.

Published: October 2019

Bagi warga desa Yudha Karya Jitu, air bersih merupakan kebutuhan yang tak ternilai harganya. Karena untuk mendapatkan air bersih mereka harus membeli dengan harga Rp.100.000 per 1 m3 yang didatangkan dari daerah lain yang berjarak sekitar 20 km dari desa tersebut. Desa Yudha Karya Jitu merupakan salah satu desa yang ada di kecamatan Rawa Jitu Timur kabupaten Tulang Bawang propinsi Lampung. Desa tersebut merupakan salah satu daftar desa pada Kawasan Perdesaan Prioritas Nasional (KPPN). Kawasan perdesaan ini dibentuk guna mengurangi kesenjangan antara desa dan kota. Prinsipnya dengan membangun desa-desa mandiri serta membangun keterkaitan ekonomi lokal antara

desa dan kota. (Humas, 2018)Untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut, maka perlu adanya alat penjernihan air menggunakan bahan yang mudah didapat (Artiyani, 2016). Bahan yang mudah didapat diantaranya adalah sekam padi, pasir,batu kerikil dan ijuk (Adi, 2014). Tujuannya agar masyarakat lebih antusias untuk membuat sendiri, karena bahan yang digunakan ada disekitar mereka. Apalagi sebagian lahan desa tersebut ditanami padi, sehingga sekam yang dihasilkan dari alat penggiling padi bisa dimanfaatkan untuk penjernihan air secara alam i. Berbeda dengan penjernihan air menggunakan teknik kimia, teknik alami lebih disukai oleh masyarakat karena biaya yang dikeluarkan untuk membuat alat lebih murah. Dari hasil penjernihan yang telah dilakukan, terlihat jelas perbedaan tingkat kejernihan air sebelum dan sesudah dilakukan.

AUGMENTED REALITY PADA APLIKASI CINTABAHARI SEBAGAI MEDIA PROMOSI PULAU PAHAWANG
Authors: Mardiana Mardiana
Published: October 2019

Kelompok Sadar Wisata (Pokdarwis) Cinta Bahari dibentuk oleh aparat Desa Pulau Pahawang Lampung sejak tahun 2013.  Akan tetapi rendahnya tingkat pendidikan anggota Pokdarwis membuat mereka sangat sulit untuk dapat mengembangkan potensi wisata pulau Pahawang. Pada tahun 2017, promosi wisata sudah dilakukan menggunakan Teknologi Informasi dan Komunikasi (TIK) dalam bentuk mobile application CintaBahari yang dikembangkan pada kegiatan Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat (PKM) sebelumnya. Namun demikian masalah promosi ini masih harus terus ditingkatkan dan berkelanjutan, sehingga jumlah kunjungan wisatawan yang diperoleh dapat lebih maksimal. Solusi yang ditawarkan oleh Tim PKM ini adalah mengembangkan media promosi dengan menggunakan teknologi Augmented Reality (AR) yang menggambarkan objek wisata Pahawang secara real yang dikemas secara menarik dan atraktif. Teknologi AR dapat menggabungkan benda maya dua dimensi atau tiga dimensi ke dalam sebuah lingkungan nyata tiga dimensi lalu memproyeksikan benda-benda maya tersebut dalam waktu nyata. Selain itu, Tim PKM ini juga memberikan sosialisasi tentang penggunaan aplikasi AR tersebut dan pembagian poster dengan konten AR kepada masyarakat sebagai sarana mereka memberikan promosi kepada wisatawan yang datang. Metoda  yang  digunakan  dalam  pembangunan aplikasi menggunakan metode iterative development  yang disebut dengan Rapid Application Development (RAD) dengan tahapan : identifikasi masalah dan motivasi, menetapkan objek solusi, penerapan solusi dan pelatihan serta pelaporan hasil dan publikasi. Adanya aplikasi AR ini diharapkan dapat membuat peningkatan potensi wisatawan yang datang dan kembali datang lagi ke Pulau Pahawang melalui ketersediaan informasi yang lengkap dan menarik dalam bentuk AR. Sehingga secara langsung akan berdampak pada peningkatan pendapatan pokdarwis dan masyarakat Desa Pulau Pahawang pada umumnya.

Estetizar los cuerpos activados: teatro y militancia en torno al Cordobazo
Authors: Verzero Lorena
Published: October 2019

El contexto cordobés en torno a 1969 fue especialmente fértil para la emergencia de prácticas artísticas militantes. En el marco de la Universidad Nacional de Córdoba movilizada por los acontecimientos sociales y políticos, surgió Libre Teatro Libre (LTL), que fue luego uno de los grupos de teatro militante más reconocidos de la época. Realizaré un recorrido crítico por el proceso político en torno al Cordobazo a través del análisis de la experiencia de LTL, poniendo de relieve aspectos significativos que operan como metonimia (por asociación o por contraste) de otras experiencias, para reflexionar en torno a problemáticas como las conexiones entre militancia y experimentación; las apuestas estéticas en función de los objetivos artístico-políticos; entre otras.

Maritime Security and the Role of Coast Guards: The Case of Finland and the Åland Islands’ Demilitarisation
Authors: Gustafsson Åsa
Published: October 2019

The measures and policies states adopt and apply related to law enforcement at sea in peacetime, such as setting up and legislating about Coast Guards and their role, increasingly take maritime security into account. A grey area between military and civilian rules, actors, and activities, can be discerned in relation to maritime security. The article explores the issue of security concerns as a basis for the on-going widening of powers of the Finnish Border Guard, which includes the Coast Guard – in particular how such a widening of the powers relates to the Åland Islands’ demilitarised status. The main question here is whether there is a conflict between possible military aspects of the Coast Guard vis-à-vis the demilitarised status of the Åland Islands. The article identifies aspects of a military nature regarding how the Finnish Coast Guard functions; these are not assessed as being decisive: the Border Guard is not part of the armed forces in peacetime. The article highlights the need for a comprehensive exploration and analysis – including both Finnish authorities and Ålandic authorities – of the Åland Islands’ status in relation to possible future assistance by the Defence Forces on the Åland Islands.

The article sets out the results of a research of the criminogenic potential capacity of cigarette smuggling. The article provides an analysis of the criminological connotation of the criminogenic potential capacity of tobacco products smuggling and presents the characteristics of the Ukrainian peculiarities of this pan-European problem. The article presents a view of the dynamics and geographical features of countering cigarette smuggling in Europe, regarding the use of FRONTEX (European Border and Coast Guard Agency) and the national border authorities. The article conveys the nature and consequences of the interrelation of cigarette smuggling and cross-border crime, and it identifies the ways to counteract this phenomenon in the context of the harmonization of the policies of different countries and the EU in the relevant sphere. Additionally, the article covers the reasons for the legislative trends in the criminalization of the excisable goods smuggling.
Judicial Review of Discretionary Powers in the Activity of Historical Monuments Protection Bodies in the Polish Legal System
Authors: Parchomiuk Jerzy
Published: October 2019

The sovereign nature of the forms of operation of cultural heritage protection authorities, the polarization between the individual interest and the public interest, discretion margin in the activities of the authorities – all these elements create a kind of “explosive mixture”, which is the source of the legal disputes between the owners of historical monuments and historical monuments protection bodies. The key element of the guarantee of individual freedom is the judicial review of public administration. Therefore, it is a matter of dispute to which extent the public administration is subject to judicial review when performing the tasks entrusted. The aim of this article is to show how Polish administrative courts approach the problem. What methodology of the review of discretion margin do they use? How do they solve the dilemma: who makes the final decision – the body or the court? Do they retain judicial self-restraint or are they ready and willing to interfere in the merits of the decision?
The Brexit Fiasco and the Failure of Article 50 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union
Authors: Kovac Mitja
Published: October 2019

Modern game theory and the economic theory of federalism may offer an alternative view on the Brexit fiasco, in which the British government should not bear exclusive responsibility for current disaster. Moreover, the design of Article 50 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) contains an intrinsic dysfunctional mechanism that generates irrational strategies. Article 50 is underdeveloped and should be redrafted. The two-year deadline provision should be replaced with a reasonable time period and should provide for a third-party dispute resolution mechanism in instances where free negotiations between the EU and the withdrawing Member State in the reasonable time period fail to achieve a winwin solution. This article also argues that the current sub-optimal institutional framework on the vertical and horizontal division of competences might be an additional generator of Euroscepticism. In order to prevent the decline of public support the EU should do less in current fields and should do much more in fields where it failed to exercise its authority and which cannot be addressed effectively at the local levels. The EU should redesign itself as an institution that mitigates broad potential sources of negative externalities, reinforcing the rule of law, protecting liberal democracy with all related civil liberties, reinforcing its political-global dimension, protecting its common cultural heritage, and combating destructive nationalisms, isolationisms and cultural introspections.
Polymerization degree-dependent changes in the effects of in vitro chitosan treatments on photosynthetic pigment, protein, and dry matter contents of Ipomoea purpurea

Morning Glory (Ipomoea purpurea (L.) Roth.) is a climbing plant known for its ornamental properties and ease of cultivation in temperate climates. Quality and colour of flowers and leaves, especially in the production of ornamentals, are important parameters both for producers and for customers. This study aimed to investigate the changes in photosynthetic pigment, protein and dry matter content of in vitro-propagated I. purpurea following chitosan treatment with different polymerization degrees (DP) and to determine the indirect effect of this biopolymer on leaves of the plant. Nodal explants of I. purpurea were cultured in medium supplemented with 5, 10 and 20 mg L−1 concentrations of a chitosan oligomers mixture with a variable degree of polymerization (DP) ranging from 2 to 15 or chitosan polymer with DP of 70. It was found that both oligomeric and polymeric chitosan treatments increased chlorophyll-a contents in the leaves when compared to the chitosan-naïve control group. Polymeric chitosan stimulated chlorophyll-b and carotenoid synthesis more effectively than the oligomer mixture. Also, 10 mg L−1 polymeric chitosan better triggered total protein production and plant dry matter content in I. purpurea. The results of this study showed that, due to their stimulatory effects on photosynthetic pigment, protein and plant dry matter production, chitosan oligomers at low concentration and polymers at moderate concentration might be considered as safe and natural biostimulants for ornamental plants which could affect the plant’s attractiveness and commercial success.

Published: October 2019

One of the most effective methods for the immobilization of toxic metals involves the use of minerals from the apatite supergroup. The formation of cadmium chlorapatite may lead to successful entrapping of cadmium; thus, it is important to examine the solubility constant to determine the stability of cadmium in the the apatite structure. Cadmium chlorapatite was synthetized and characterized by X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. The solubility constant (log) Ksp of cadmium chlorapatite was -65.58. The Gibbs free energy of formation of cadmium chlorapatite reached -3950.48 kJ mol−1. The solubility constant turned out to be low but was enough for cadmium chlorapatiteto be considered a very stable compound..
