Published: September 2018

A Magyarországon az e-commerce jelentősége megkérdőjelezhetetlen. A lakosság 66%-a rendszeres internethasználó (I3). Minden negyedik ember napi szinten használja azt. Az online értékesítés 2010-ben 137 milliárd forintról 2016-ban már 427 milliárd forintra növekedett, miközben az offline értékesítés ezt a növekedést megközelíteni sem tudta (I1). Kétséget kizáróan az on-line tér egy nagyon értékes piaccá vált. A vásárlások szempontjából igen értékes korosztály naponta körülbelül 6 órát tölt on-line, ebből 3 órát aktívan használja is azt (I2). Az informálódás és a kapcsolattartás legjelentősebb forrása szintén az internet, hiszen a felmérések szerint 41 %-ban ezt a módot használják. Hazánkban az internet hozzáférhetősége lényegében független a földrajzi helytől, köszönhetően a Digitális Megújulás Cselekvési Tervnek, melynek egyik fő fejezete a „Fejlett és biztonságos infrastruktúra mindenkinek”.(Botos 2013). Magyarország vidéki területein nagyon sok kedvezőtlen folyamatot láthatunk. Ezek közül is kiemelkedő az elvándorlás, a lokális gazdasági élet kiürülése. Ezen folyamatok megállítására létrehozták a “Nemzeti vidékstratégiát” (2012-2020). Legfontosabb területei a foglalkoztatás növekedése, a kiegyensúlyozott és sokszínű mező- és erdőgazdálkodás, termelési szerkezet, a helyi élelmiszertermelés és élelmiszerpiacok helyreállítása, a helyi energiatermelés, a vidék helyi közösségeinek megerősödése, a népesedési mutatók javulása és a természeti rendszerek, a biológiai sokféleség megőrzése. A vidéki gazdaságok becsatornázása az on-line piactérbe, kapcsolódásuk különböző DBE-kbe nem csak vertikálisan, hanem horizontálisan is, a túlélésük és fejlődésük egyik záloga lehet. A vidéki on-line piactéren működő vállalkozások helyzete nagyon speciális. Egyrészt működtetésük nagyon sok aspektusában kedvezőbb, viszont bizonyos esetekben olyan hátrányokkal rendelkeznek, amelyek a létüket alapvetően veszélyeztetik. A cikk célja, hogy a megismerjük ezt a környezetet, feltérképezzük az előnyöket és a hátrányokat. Ehhez felhasználunk vidéki településen működtetett on-line piactéren működő vállalkozásokkal elvégzett mélyinterjúk eredményeit.

DIREITO À PROTEÇÃO DA SAÚDE PELA VIA JUDICIAL: EM BUSCA DE EFETIVIDADE E EQUIDADE
Authors: Ferreira Marina Costa
Published: September 2018

Este artigo envolve a pesquisa das vias de materialização do direito fundamental à proteção da saúde orientada pela equidade. Tem sido muito tematizado o potencial discriminatório da intervenção judicial, ao argumento de que privilegia um grupo restrito que tem acionado o Poder Judiciário em busca de proteção, em detrimento do restante da população. Assume-se, por outro lado, que importantes falhas na regulação de saúde e os respectivos problemas de gestão, manifestados pelas deficiências na implementação da políticas existentes, exigem que os tribunais continuem a desempenhar um papel na efetivação do direito à proteção da saúde.Nesse sentido, pretende-se refletir sobre as vantagens do diálogo institucional que promove, ao lado da proteção de direitos sociais, a deliberação democrática, como uma alternativa ponderada favorável ao equilíbrio entre a efetividade das disposições constitucionais, o desempenho adequado da função judicial e o processo político majoritário em matéria de direitos sociais.

O CONTROLE JUDICIAL DA EFETIVIDADE DOS DIREITOS SOCIAIS: A PERSPECTIVA DA TEORIA FILOSÓFICO-POLÍTICA DA CONDIÇÃO HUMANA E ESPAÇO PÚBLICO E DA CRÍTICA HERMENÊUTICA DO DIREITO
Authors: Morais Fausto Santos , Redin Giuliana
Published: September 2018

Decorridos mais de vinte anos da Constituição de 1988 perceber-se que os direitos sociais, tidos como fundamentais, ainda apresentam grande dificuldade de serem efetivos ou socilamente eficazes, no sentido de existirem políticas públicas suficientes à sua concretização. Com o objetivo de desenvolver hipóteses teóricas que enfrentem esse problema, esse ensaio aborda duas perspectivas teóricas diferentes para justificar a legitimidade do controle judicial da efetividade dos direitos sociais. A primeira, baseada na metodologia desconstrutivista, está associada ao pensamento filosófico-político arendtiano da condição humana e do espaço público. O segundo, fundado na metodologia fenomenológica hermenêutica, busca enfrentar a utilização do método ponderativo nas demandas judiciais que reclamam o controle das políticas públicas relativo a sua efetividade. Nesse sentido, são apresentadas as linhas teóricas que convergem na necessidade de acesso ao Judiciário como mecanismo de efetividade dos direitos sociais.
RELATION BETWEEN THE QUALITY OF FAMILY RELATIONS OF STUDENTS AND SELECTED FIELD OF STUDY
Authors: Tosic Radev Milica , Todorović Dušan
Published: September 2018

Early experience, forms of behaviour that parents expressed towards a child and the family environment in which a child grew up have a significant effect on the formulation of attitudes, needs and interests that later on influence professional orientation and the choice of occupation (Roe, 1956).The research was conducted on a sample of 448 students from 6 different faculties and attempt to examine the possible connection between the quality of family relationships of the student and  his/her professional interests, evaluated through education type, i.e. through selection of the field of study.  The quality of family relationships were operationalized by the Family quality of interactions scale - KOBI (Vulić - Prtorić, 2004).The results indicated differences in the expression of family dimensions between students of different faculties. The students of detached, technical sciences have a weaker feeling of having their mother’s acceptance, while the individuals from the group of students with the strongest feeling of rejection from both parents choose the field of psychology for their studies. Our results indicate the existence of differences between the subsamples of students in their experience of the family that go beyond gender differences, and suggest the need for further, more detailed research which could discover deeper, inner initiators that guide an individual’s choice of profession.
LIMITS OF SEXUAL FREEDOM AND THE NOTION OF PERVERSION: IS SEXUAL ETHICS “APPLIED?”
Authors: Cekić Nenad
Published: September 2018

This article has two main points: 1) there are no reasons why sexual ethics should be excluded from fashionable “applied ethics” and “bioethics” investigations, and 2) that the key concepts of “sexual discourse” – especially the concept of “perversion” – deserves full philosophical attention. As an example, the author offers a brief analysis of the reasons why, despite the ruling “libertarian paradigm,” the concept of “perversion” should be kept in ordinary language.
Esos fueron los días. Cultura social, creatividad y libertad en el México de 1968
Authors: Trejo Delarbre Raúl
Published: September 2018

En 1968 había una cultura social vivamente interesada en el desarrollo del arte y el pensamiento dentro y fuera de México. La desazón ante la desigualdad social, la irritación contra la rigidez del sistema político e incluso el rechazo al autoritarismo que se expresó en las calles entre julio y septiembre de aquel año axial fueron precedidos por la expresión de esas mismas emociones y convicciones en las salas de teatro y cinematográficas, en las galerías de exposiciones, en los libros de moda y, de cuando en cuando, en los medios de comunicación. A pesar de las restricciones oficiales, que llegaban a la franca censura, había una vida cultural intensa y la creación artística llegaba a tener cauces para desplegarse con libertad.

[Los años sesenta y yo: de la revolución cultural a la teoría cultural]

ABSTRACT

In this article, the author offers an approach to his personal and academic development during the 1960s and how they laid the foundations for his contributions in the field of sociology. Pointing out those years as a moment in which a tumultuous social conscience, strongly influenced by the New Left, broke with the static rationalization of modernity, the author analyzes his radicalization in Marxism during his student years at Harvard and his eventual distancing from it. He also explores how the Vietman war and specific events of the time shaped an entire generation, through pointing to the possible existence of alternative social orders.

RESUMEN

En este artículo el autor ofrece un acercamiento a lo que fue su formación personal y académica durante la década de 1960 y cómo ellas sentaron las bases para sus contribuciones en el ámbito de la sociología. Señalando esos años como un momento en el que una tumultuosa conciencia social, fuertemente influida por la Nueva Izquierda, rompió con la racionalización estática de la modernidad, el autor analiza su radicalización en el marxismo durante su estancia en Harvard y su eventual distanciamiento del mismo. Asimismo, relata cómo la guerra de Vietnam y ciertos eventos específicos de la época moldearon a toda una generación, a través de apuntar hacia la posible existencia de órdenes sociales alternativos.

ANÁLISE ESTRUTURAL DO MERCADO BRASILEIRO DE PICAPES PEQUENAS
Authors: De Paula Eduardo Gabriel , Martins Figueiredo Adelson , Pitelli Mariusa Momenti
Published: September 2018

A venda de picapes pequenas no Brasil é altamente concentrada em quatro empresas, em que a Fiat tende a ter a maior participação de mercado, em termos de unidades vendidas. Assim, o objetivo desta pesquisa foi testar a ocorrência de exercício de poder de mercado no segmento de picapes pequenas. O referencial teórico teve como base a teoria da New Empirical Industrial Organization (NEIO) e aplicou-se o modelo econométrico baseado em Berry et al. (1995), um modelo estrutural de demanda e oferta para estimação do equilíbrio de mercado, onde aplica-se um modelo randômico de utilidade para derivar a demanda e assume-se que o logaritmo do custo marginal é linear em relação ao custo dos atributos. Os resultados mostram que o markup médio ponderado do segmento é de cerca 12% e que a estratégia de competição das firmas oscila ao longo do tempo. Portanto, foi possível rejeitar a hipótese nula de que os modelos de competição de Bertrand e de cooperação são indistinguíveis em favor da cooperação em alguns subperíodos.
Did the FASB's Simplification Initiative Increase Errors in Analysts' Implied ETR Forecasts? Evidence from Early Adoption of ASU 2016-09
Authors: Brushwood James , Johnston Derek , Kutcher Lisa , Stekelberg James
Published: September 2018

Part of the FASB's broader simplification initiative, ASU 2016-09 was issued on March 30, 2016 and became effective for all firms for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. ASU 2016-09 simplifies the accounting for the tax effects of stock-based compensation by requiring firms to record all related tax windfalls and shortfalls as components of current income tax expense rather than as direct-to-equity adjustments, as was required under prior guidance. Many observers note this change may introduce significant volatility and uncertainty into firms' ETRs. Consistent with this concern, we document that errors in analysts' “clean” ETR forecasts significantly increased among firms reporting a material ETR effect due to early-adopting ASU 2016-09, relative to other firms. Our results suggest that simplification came at the cost of a decrease in the predictability of tax-related financial information; as such, this study provides timely evidence on an important economic consequence of ASU 2016-09.
The Impact of Regulation on Executive Compensation: IRC Section 162(m) and the Unexpected Exclusion of CFOs
Authors: Balsam Steven , Evans John H. , Yurko Amy J. N.
Published: September 2018

IRC §162(m) originally denied corporations tax deductions for nonperformance compensation in excess of $1 million per executive when paid to the CEO and the next four highest paid named executive officers. Following the 2006 SEC proxy statement revision, which the IRS deemed incompatible with §162(m), the IRS excluded CFOs from §162(m). This exclusion exogenously altered the CFO compensation environment, creating a natural experiment we exploit to examine how §162(m) influences executive compensation. Using a difference-in-differences design, our analysis allows us to draw causal influences generally lacking in prior §162(m) studies. We find that after the IRS exclusion of CFOs, firms increased the nonperformance compensation of CFOs who otherwise would have been affected by §162(m). Consistent with the shift to less risky compensation reducing the risk premium demanded by CFOs, we find some evidence of a reduction in their compensation growth. Our analysis provides evidence that tax policy influences compensation design.
Type 2 Diabetes–Associated Genetic Variants Regulate Chromatin Accessibility in Human Islets

Published: September 2018

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex disorder in which both genetic and environmental risk factors contribute to islet dysfunction and failure. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have linked single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), most of which are noncoding, in >200 loci to islet dysfunction and T2D. Identification of the putative causal variants and their target genes and whether they lead to gain or loss of function remains challenging. Here, we profiled chromatin accessibility in pancreatic islet samples from 19 genotyped individuals and identified 2,949 SNPs associated with in vivo cis-regulatory element use (i.e., chromatin accessibility quantitative trait loci [caQTL]). Among the caQTLs tested (n = 13) using luciferase reporter assays in MIN6 β-cells, more than half exhibited effects on enhancer activity that were consistent with in vivo chromatin accessibility changes. Importantly, islet caQTL analysis nominated putative causal SNPs in 13 T2D-associated GWAS loci, linking 7 and 6 T2D risk alleles, respectively, to gain or loss of in vivo chromatin accessibility. By investigating the effect of genetic variants on chromatin accessibility in islets, this study is an important step forward in translating T2D-associated GWAS SNP into functional molecular consequences.

Published: September 2018

OBJECTIVE

Individuals with type 1 diabetes have experienced an increase in life expectancy, yet it is unknown what level of glycemic control is ideal for maintaining late-life brain health. We investigated the association of long-term glycemic control with dementia in older individuals with type 1 diabetes.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

We followed 3,433 members of a health care system with type 1 diabetes, aged ≥50 years, from 1996 to 2015. Repeated measurements of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), dementia diagnoses, and comorbidities were ascertained from health records. Cox proportional hazards models were fit to evaluate the association of time-varying glycemic exposure with dementia, with adjustment for age, sex, race/ethnicity, baseline health conditions, and frequency of HbA1c measurement.

RESULTS

Over a mean follow-up of 6.3 years, 155 individuals (4.5%) were diagnosed with dementia. Patients with ≥50% of HbA1c measurements at 8–8.9% (64–74 mmol/mol) and ≥9% (≥75 mmol/mol) had 65% and 79% higher risk of dementia, respectively, compared with those with <50% of measurements exposed (HbA1c 8–8.9% adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 1.65 [95% CI 1.06, 2.57] and HbA1c ≥9% aHR 1.79 [95% CI 1.11, 2.90]). By contrast, patients with ≥50% of HbA1c measurements at 6–6.9% (42–52 mmol/mol) and 7–7.9% (53–63 mmol/mol) had a 45% lower risk of dementia (HbA1c 6–6.9% aHR 0.55 [95% CI 0.34, 0.88] and HbA1c 7–7.9% aHR 0.55 [95% CI 0.37, 0.82]).

CONCLUSIONS

Among older patients with type 1 diabetes, those with majority exposure to HbA1c 8–8.9% and ≥9% had increased dementia risk, while those with majority exposure to HbA1c 6–6.9% and 7–7.9% had reduced risk. Currently recommended glycemic targets for older patients with type 1 diabetes are consistent with healthy brain aging.

Authors: POLAT Şule , ÖZDEMİR Murat
Published: September 2018

In this study, the relationship between educational stress, school burnout and school alienation were analysed depending on the views of secondary school students. The study group was composed of 652 students attending to nine different secondary schools in the province of Ankara in the second semester of the 2015-2016 academic year. The data were collected with the Education Stress Scale (ESS), the School Burnout Scale (SBS) and the School Alienation Scale (SAS). The data collected from the participants were analysed by using descriptive statistics such as arithmetic mean and standard deviation, as well as confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and Pearson’s correlation and multiple regression analysis. The findings revealed a significant correlation between education stress, school burnout and school alienation. The results of regression analysis showed that educational stress and school burnout were significant predictors of school alienation. As the findings were assessed as a whole, it was reached that both experiences of the students on education stress and school burnout are important factors for their school alienation.

Published: September 2018

Cloud computing is a vigorous technology by which a user can get software, application, operating system and hardware as a service without actually possessing it and paying only according to the usage. Cloud Computing is a hot topic of research for the researchers these days. With the rapid growth of Internet technology cloud computing have become main source of computing for small as well big IT companies. In the cloud computing milieu the cloud data centers and the users of the cloud-computing are globally situated, therefore it is a big challenge for cloud data centers to efficiently handle the requests which are coming from millions of users and service them in an efficient manner.Cloud computing is Internet based development and use of computer technology. It is a style of computing in which dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources are provided as a service over the Internet. Users need not have knowledge of, expertise in, or control over the technology infrastructure "in the cloud" that supports them. Scheduling is one of the core steps to efficiently exploit the capabilities of heterogeneous computing systems. On cloud computing platform, load balancing of the entire system can be  dynamically handled  by  using  virtualization  technology through which it  becomes  possible  to  remap  virtual  machine  and physical resources  according  to  the  change  in  load. However, in order to improve performance, the virtual machines have to fully utilize its resources and services by adapting to computing environment dynamically.  The  load balancing  with  proper  allocation  of  resources  must  be guaranteed  in  order  to  improve  resource  utility.  Load balancing is a critical aspect that ensures that all the resources and entities are well balanced such that no resource or entity neither is under loaded nor overloaded. The load balancing algorithms can be static or dynamic.  Load balancing in this environment means equal distribution of workload across all the nodes. Load balancing provides a way of achieving the proper utilization of resources and better user satisfaction. Hence, use of an appropriate load balancing algorithm is necessary for selecting the virtual machines or servers. This paper focuses on the load balancing algorithm which distributes the incoming jobs among VMs optimally in cloud data centers. In this paper, we have reviewed several existing load balancing mechanisms and we have tried to address the problems associated with them.
Seizure etiologic classification and long-term outcome for cats with juvenile-onset seizures

OBJECTIVE To identify seizure etiologic classification for cats that developed seizures at < 12 months of age and describe the long-term outcome of affected cats.

DESIGN Retrospective cohort study.

ANIMALS 15 client-owned cats with seizures that began at < 12 months of age.

PROCEDURES Information on each cat was obtained from the medical records, veterinarians, and owners. Inclusion required an onset of seizures before 12 months of age and a complete medical record, including a final diagnosis.

RESULTS 7 of the 15 cats had structural epilepsy, 4 had idiopathic epilepsy, and 4 had reactive seizures. Median age at seizure onset was 27 weeks (range, 0.4 to 41 weeks). Cluster seizures were reported in 6 cats, and status epilepticus was reported in 2. Age at the onset of seizures, presence of cluster seizures, and seizure semiology (ie, generalized vs focal seizures) were not significantly associated with seizure etiologic classification.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Results suggested that cats that developed seizures at < 12 months of age were more likely to have structural epilepsy than idiopathic epilepsy or reactive seizures. Therefore, advanced diagnostic imaging is recommended in cats with juvenile-onset seizures if metabolic and toxic causes are excluded.

Gothic Spaces and the Tropical City: reading The Crocodile Fury, Haunting the Tiger, Life’s Mysteries
Authors: Daly Sathyabhama
Published: September 2018

Beth Yahp’s The Crocodile Fury (1992), K.S. Maniam’s Haunting the Tiger (1996), and Shirley Lim’s Life’s Mysteries (1995) articulate the ambivalence of interpreting the cultural beliefs of the Malays, Chinese, and Indians of the former Malaya with the evolving spiritual beliefs of Christianity and Catholicism influenced by British colonisation. In Beth Yahp’s The Crocodile Fury the ghosts of the colonial past vie for power with the demons of Chinese cultural beliefs in a convent situated in the liminal space between the jungle and the urban environment. The convent is a “civilised space” with the jungle as an encroaching wilderness haunted by Chinese gods and the female vampire ghost Pontianak of the Malay cultural tradition. Similarly, Maniam’s short stories in Haunting the Tiger situate the supernatural and the abject in the liminal spaces between the city and the jungle to express the metaphorical exile experienced by the Indian and Chinese diaspora in Malaysia. The trope of liminality is most evident in Shirley Lim’s short stories in Life’s Mysteries where the domestic and urban space of culture are viewed through prisms of imprisonment and disempowerment. The authors uncover the psychological and social exile experienced by colonised subjects through the gothic themes of shadows, darkness and the underworld.

Authors: Corrêa Caetano Dias , Schmitt Victor Machado
Published: September 2018

O presente trabalho explora os eixos teóricos e normativos que sustentam a concepção de que a prolação de decisões-surpresa viola o princípio do contraditório. Parte-se da análise de que o Novo Código de Processo Civil é estruturado em uma base teórica e normativa alicerçada na efetividade dos direitos fundamentais processuais e, especialmente, na dimensão substancial do princípio do contraditório, concebido como garantia de efetiva influência das partes na construção do provimento jurisdicional. Examina-se o papel do juiz no debate processual, atestando-se o seu dever de observar o contraditório e suas consequentes repercussões na valoração jurídica da lide e no conhecimento de matérias de ofício. Por fim, reflete-se a extensão do novo dispositivo de vedação às decisões-surpresa, as potenciais consequências de sua observância e as repercussões da regra no sistema processual inaugurado pelo Novo Código de Processo Civil.
Cirugía Colo-rectal Laparoscópica en 3D. ¿Recomendamos su implantación?
Authors: Loreto Brand Mariana Elisa
Published: September 2018

La cirugía laparoscópica en 3D se presenta como una alternativa a los inconvenientes de la laparoscopia convencional. A pesar de los resultados discordantes de los primeros estudios realizados en 1998, los avances tecnológicos, la cada vez más frecuente experiencia de los cirujanos con las intervenciones laparoscópicas y su indicación habitual, han permitido que nuevas investigaciones en dicho campo muestren unos resultados más alentadores.

El uso de tecnología tridimensional en la cirugía laparoscópica ha evolucionado desde sus inicios, pudiendo identificar situaciones propias por su uso como el ghosting-crosstalk y conceptos nuevos para el equipo quirúrgico que no se habían presentado en la cirugía laparoscópica convencional, como el de estereoagudeza / estereoceguera.

A pesar de los beneficios hipotéticos y comprobados de la cirugía laparoscópica tridimensional (mejor percepción de profundidad, seguridad al realizar movimientos complejos, mayor precisión quirúrgica y menor curva de aprendizaje), los puntos débiles a tener en cuenta son: necesidad de estereopsis normal (normalmente no estudiada en el equipo quirúrgico), beneficio en ciertos pasos de la cirugía (anastomosis y suturas) con menor grado de ventaja en las intervenciones con menos necesidad de estas acciones y pocos ensayos clínicos con un diseño adecuado y un número de casos que brinden suficiente validez estadística.

Por todo esto, es imposible recomendar al 100% la cirugía colo-rectal laparoscópica sin mayores estudios a disposición; aunque si se puede hacer mención a la alta posibilidad de que la misma sea poco a poco aceptada, siendo coherente y esperable con los avances tecnológicos y el interés de los mismos cirujanos sobre esta técnica.
