Perdarahan saluran cerna merupakan keluhan pasien yang sering dijumpai dalam keseharian dan untuk penatalaksaannyadilakukan dengan menentukan lokasi perdarahan dan gejalanya. Berdasarkan lokasi perdarahan saluran cerna dibagi menjadi duayaitu perdarahan saluran cerna atas (SCBA) dan perdarahan saluran cerna bawah (SCBB), sedangkan gejala perdarahan dibagi menjadi3 yaitu hematemesis (muntah darah segar), melena (feses kehitaman) dan hematokezia (perdarahan lewat anus berwarna merah terang).Data penggunaan rasio BUN/kreatinin untuk menentukan lokasi perdarahan saluran cerna di Indonesia masih kurang sehingga penelititertarik untuk meneliti analisis rasio BUN/kreatinin untuk meramalkan lokasi perdarahan pada saluran cerna dengan tujuan untukdiagnosis dan penatalaksanaan yang lebih cepat. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk meramalkan letak perdarahan saluran cerna yaituSCBA atau SCBB pada pasien rawat inap di RSUP Wahidin Sudirohusodo masa waktu Januari-Desember 2014. Penelitian dilakukansecara potong silang dengan menggunakan uji t-tidak berpasangan untuk menentukan kenasaban rasio BUN/Kreatinin dengan lokasiperdarahan saluran cerna. Selama masa waktu Januari-Desember 2014 diperoleh data sebanyak 144 pasien perdarahan saluran cernadengan perdarahan SCBA sebanyak 64 pasien (44%), serta perdarahan SCBB 80 pasien (56%). Pada perdarahan SCBA, nilai rerataBUN 33,2 mg/dL, nilai rerata kreatinin 1,06 mg/dL, dan rerata rasio BUN/Kreatinin 32. Terdapat kenasaban yang bermakna antaralokasi perdarahan saluran cerna dan nilai rasio BUN/kreatinin (t=6,394; p=0,001). Pasien dengan perdarahan saluran cerna bagianatas memiliki rasio BUN/kreatinin lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan pasien dengan perdarahan saluran cerna bagian bawah.

Evaluation of reproduction for mussel Mytilus trossulus (Bivalvia: Mytilidae) in the Veselaya Bay (Tauiskaya Guba Bay, Okhotsk Sea)
Authors: Zharnikov V. S.
Published: October 2018

Abundance, size composition, and terms of plankton stage were investigated for the larvae of pacific mussel in the Veselaya Bay (Okhotsk Sea) in two years with different oceanographic regime. The first larvae (density 8-30 ind./m³, shell length 75–150 μm) appeared in late June in the year with relatively high water temperature (2016) and in early July in the year with lowered temperature (2011), then their number had increased to 1750 ind./m³ in early August of 2016 and to 1320 ind./m³ in late August of 2011. Density and size composition of the spat and young mussels were examined in hanging collectors and nurseries. The growth rate change in dependence on shell length was noted. There is concluded that the hanging collectors are more effective for spat collection, while the nurseries are better for growing of littoral mussels.

ABSTRACTLasem is one of Sub Districts in Rembang Regency located in north coast of central part of Java Island. The strategic position of Lasem that is located on maritime and over-land trading route has made this area since 500 BC inhabited and has passed many different periods of human settlement ranging from prehistory, classic (Hinduism-Buddhism), Islam, colonial periods and until today. That long period of human settlements has left for us now heritages of various cultural influences including Javanese, Chinese, European, Hinduism-Buddhism, and Islamic culture.  Heritage is finite and un-renewable in its nature so that it needs to be managed in order to outlive and to be inherited to the next generations. In Lasem, people have been relatively aware of that. Communities in Lasem represented by their organizations have their agendas of appreciating and preserving their heritage. However, they did them individually or not in good coordination of each other. The situation then generates an idea of coordinating activities done by communities in Lasem. Active role of those communities have to be guided and developed so that the purpose of appreciating and preserving their heritage can be achieved.

Testing liberal norms: the public policy and public security derogations and the cracks in European Union citizenship
Authors: Ferreira Nuno , Kostakopoulou Dora
Published: October 2018

European Union law has curtailed the traditional discretion Member States have in ordering non-nationals to leave their territory. Although Directive 2004/28 (the Citizenship Directive) has enhanced the system of protection afforded to offending European Union citizens, it still contains a number of cracks that lead to policy incoherence and gaps in rights protection. This is evident in the first rulings on Article 28(3) of Directive 2004/38 concerning the deportation of offending EU citizens. These issues also threaten to transform European Union citizenship from a fundamental status into a thin overlay that, under pressure from national executive power, loses its effect and significance. To be sure, EU citizenship has demonstrated that community belonging does not have to be based on organic-national qualities, cultural commonalities, or individuals' conformity to national values, but the continued deportation of long-term resident Union citizens makes nationality the ultimate determinant of belonging. The subsequent discussion suggests possible remedies and makes recommendations for institutional reform.

Published: October 2018

El artículo presenta los avances de un proyecto más amplio que se desarrolla en una unidad de la Universidad Pedagógica Nacional, México, con 32 estudiantes de la Licenciatura en Intervención Educativa, con miras a fortalecer la calidad de los procesos de formación profesional y de aprendizaje desde una perspectiva integradora que tome en cuenta  factores diversos. En particular, se reportan aquí resultados parciales de una etapa que tuvo como objetivos identificar sus concepciones sobre el proceso de autorregulación y el papel que tiene en la formación profesional, así como conocer sus representaciones acerca de su futura práctica educativa, las exigencias que la impactan y las necesidades formativas propias en el contexto sociocultural actual. El estudio se enmarca en el modelo cualitativo; su diseño corresponde a la investigación acción participativa, cuya consecución posibilitó la participación activa de los estudiantes en las acciones de reflexión, problematización y de búsqueda de solución práctica de sus necesidades. Se emplearon grupos focales, la observación participante, cuestionarios y entrevistas. Los resultados muestran que los estudiantes poseen escasos conocimientos acerca de la autorregulación y de su papel en sus procesos formativos. Se concluye que la importancia de comprender la autorregulación es un proceso complejo, cuya formación se relaciona tanto con procesos psicológicos, como con factores socioculturales y educativos diversos que deben ser desarrollados para promover nuevas competencias de estructuración, contextualización y gestión de los saberes, que los estudiantes necesitan para transformar su realidad y transformarse a sí mismos en su trayecto académico.

Authors: Li Xiao-mei , Han Lin , Guan Yun-fei
Published: October 2018

The dilatancy behavior of rockfills is relate to the stress level, the initial state and particle breakage. In this paper, based on the critical state theory, the state-dependent dilatancy theory of rockfills is established, and it is introduced into the state-dependent constitutive model of coarse materials, so the state-dependent constitutive model of rockfills is formulated. According to the large-scale triaxial testing results, using the Fortran program modelling the experimental results, then, comparing the test results and simulation results, only one set parameters of state-dependent constitutive model of rockfills can reflect the strain softening and dilatancy properties of rockfills under the condition of different density, gradation and confining pressure. Therefore, the rationality of the state-dependent constitutive model of rockfills is verified.

In this study, observed runoff series from a hydro-station respectively named Wenjiachuan station in the Kuye river was manipulated for monthly annual variation analysis assisted by using nonuniformity coefficient and concentration degree(period).the cumulative filter methods was employed to detect the trend of inner-annual runoff. Based on meteorological and hydrological data of the Wenjiachuan hydrologic station from 1955 to 2015, the paper studied the variation tendency, the abrupt and periodic changes of annual runoff using the Mann-Kendall non-parametric test and accumulation anomaly curve. Double mass curve was used to estimate the impact of human activities and climate change on the runoff variation. The curve of seasonal runoff distribution for Wenjiachuan station appeared two peak patterns. The annual runoff declined markedly, the effect of climate on runoff decreased, the influence of human activities on runoff gradually increased the human activities are the primary factors leading to the reduction of annual runoff. In human activities, large-scale water and soil conservation measures and high-strength coal mining have produced significant effects on the annual runoff reduction in Kuye River.

Authors: Xiangyue Chen , Junyu Lu , Rui He , Ru Zhang
Published: October 2018

As a bridge of scientific and technological communication between China and other countries, sci-tech translation is of great significance in promoting the social development of China in the current situation. Europeanization, particularly in sci-tech translation, refers to the general name of new expressions and sentence patterns emerged under the influence of European languages, especially English. From the perspective of Skopos theory and its core element (paying attention to the target addressees), this paper attempts to analyze Europeanization in sci-tech translation and to predict its future development and application, so that translators could get a better understanding of its present situation and prospect, and thus produce more idiomatic and faithful translations that achieve communicative goals better. This will finally contribute to the development of both theoretical research and practice of sci-tech translation.

The current study has generated the green driver concept to evaluate the incorporation of green driver to negative outcomes reduction of road transportation. The study aimed to identify the green driver’s behaviors affecting safe traveling by engaging two research phases. Phase one was to identify the safe driving behaviors using Systematic literature review and Content Analysis methods. Phase one identified twenty-four (24) sub-factors under reckless driving behaviors cluster, and nineteen (19) sub-factors under safe driving practice cluster. Second phase was to establish the actual weight value of the sub-factors using Grounded Group Decision Making (GGDM) and Value Assignment (VA) methods, in order to determine the value impact of each sub-factor to green driving. Phase two resulted that sub-factors Exceeding speed limits (DB f2.2.) and Driver’s cognitive and motor skills (SD f1.2.2.) have received highest actual values, 0.64 and 0.49, respectively; ranked as the High contributor grade. Contrary, the sub-factors Age cognitive decline (DB f1.2.) and Competitive attitude (DB f1.2.), and Avoid gear snatching (SD f1.1.4.) have the lowest actual values; and ranked in low-contribution grade. The rest of the sub-factors have ranked in medium-contribution grade. The research also found out drivers’ personalities (included, physical and psychological characteristics) remains unaccountable and non-measureable yet in driver travel behavior assessment models. The study outputs would be used in development of Green Driver Index Assessment Model.
Celebrations and Occasions in Coworkers’ Culture: The Cases of Vilnius (Lithuania) and Sofia (Bulgaria)

Each organization fosters its own culture that is established, maintained and redeveloped in formal and informal social relations among co-workers; however, these are also influenced by the broader cultural environment in which a given organization exists. The question raised in this article is how the context of urban culture is reflected in the community of colleagues. We suppose that it is during such informal gatherings or during leisure time, when they can communicate more freely, and celebrate or mark various occasions that the social and cultural context of co-workers becomes apparent.
The article aims to compare cultural expressions in co-workers’ communities among the inhabitants of Vilnius and Sofia by revealing the place of Soviet-period and current celebrations among co-workers. It also aims to show how an employee experiences his or her personal life cycle in a coworker’s environment, including (1) work-related personal events as the first salary, marking the length of service, retirement, and family-related events such as birthdays, weddings, and funerals, and (2) official holidays (public holidays, religious and other calendar feasts, commemorations of important dates, and other celebrations significant for the public).
The study showed that the civil rites created in the Soviet era to promote coworkers’ participation were integrated into the culture of the urban people, by (1) transferring traditions of folk communities into the urban environment and in this way developing urban communities, and (2) allowing indirect control of the introduction of new holidays into the family environment. Comparing the expression of the cultural environment in coworkers’ gatherings among the inhabitants of Vilnius and those of Sofia, a difference was observed between the co-workers with regard to the family life cycle: in Sofia, coworkers very seldom socialize during funerals and only to some extent on the occasion of weddings, while the birth of a child is often marked in absentia, that is with the mother and the child absent. Meanwhile, the coworkers in Vilnius have always celebrated these occasions since the 1970s. As for the official holidays at the state level, Bulgarians, unlike Lithuanians, in Soviet times mentioned May 1 and national celebrations such as the Revival Leaders Day, the Saints Cyril and Methodius Day, and Baba Marta (Martenitsa), an informal one. This is apparently the reason why currently official celebrations enjoy greater popularity among coworkers in Sofia than among their counterparts in Vilnius.
The first comparative studies of these cities show that a country’s official cultural policy influences the cultural expression of coworkers (and citizens in general): formal cultural expression is affected directly, and informal is influenced to some extent. When the end of the Soviet era heralded a new cultural policy, the intensity and intentions of formal holiday celebrations changed, but the character of informal celebrations remained more or less the same.
Toward a unified picture of the exocytotic fusion pore
Authors: Karatekin Erdem
Published: October 2018

Neurotransmitter and hormone release involve calcium‐triggered fusion of a cargo‐loaded vesicle with the plasma membrane. The initial connection between the fusing membranes, called the fusion pore, can evolve in various ways, including rapid dilation to allow full cargo release, slow expansion, repeated opening–closing and resealing. Pore dynamics determine the kinetics of cargo release and the mode of vesicle recycling, but how these processes are controlled is poorly understood. Previous reconstitutions could not monitor single pores, limiting mechanistic insight they could provide. Recently developed nanodisc‐based fusion assays allow reconstitution and monitoring of single pores with unprecedented detail and hold great promise for future discoveries. They recapitulate various aspects of exocytotic fusion pores, but comparison is difficult because different approaches suggested very different exocytotic fusion pore properties, even for the same cell type. In this Review, I discuss how most of the data can be reconciled, by recognizing how different methods probe different aspects of the same fusion process. The resulting picture is that fusion pores have broadly distributed properties arising from stochastic processes which can be modulated by physical constraints imposed by proteins, lipids and membranes.
Molecular testing of residual cytology samples: Rethink, reclaim, repurpose
Authors: Roy‐Chowdhuri Sinchita
Published: October 2018

The ability to detect clinically relevant genetic alterations by repurposing previously discarded cytology samples provides an exciting new dimension to the practice of cytopathology. Repurposing otherwise discarded residual fluid and supernatant fluid from fine‐needle aspiration samples allows for better use of cytology specimens.

(−)‐Hydroxycitric acid [(−)‐HCA] is widely used as a nutritional supplement to control body weight and fat accumulation in animals and humans, whereas the underlying biochemical mechanism is unclear. Broiler chicken was used as a model for studies of obesity due to its natural hyperglycemia and being insulin resistant. The current study aimed to obtain a systematic view of serum metabolites and hepatic proteins and well understand the mechanism of hepatic metabolic response to (−)‐HCA treatment in chick embryos. The results showed that 22, 90, and 82 of differentially expressed proteins were identified at E14d, E19d, and H1d in chick embryos treated with (−)‐HCA, respectively. Meanwhile, 5, 83, and 88 of serum metabolites significantly changed at E14d, E19d, and H1d in chick embryos after (−)‐HCA treatment. Bioinformatics analysis showed that the key proteins and metabolites, which were significantly altered in chick embryos treated with (−)‐HCA, were mainly involved in the citrate cycle, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, fatty acid metabolism, and pyruvate metabolism. Our data indicated that (−)‐HCA treatment might promote fat metabolism via regulating the key protein expression levels and metabolite contents in the citrate cycle, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, and oxidative phosphorylation during chicken embryonic development. These results will deepen our understanding of the mechanism of fat reduction by (−)‐HCA and provide substantial information for (−)‐HCA as a nutritional supplement to control body weight gain and curb obesity‐related diseases.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the cardiac‐differentiation potential of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) generated from human umbilical cord–derived mesenchymal cells. Spontaneous beating colonies were observed at day 7 after the sequential addition of CHIR99021 and IWP‐4. The combined use of CHIR99021 and IWP‐4 downregulated the expression of pluripotency markers while upregulating cardiac transcription factors and cardiomyocyte‐specific markers. The derived cardiomyocytes demonstrated typical sarcomeric structures and action‐potential features; most importantly, the derived cells exhibited responsiveness to β‐adrenergic and muscarinic stimulations. The analyses of molecular, structural, and functional properties revealed that the derived cardiomyocytes were similar to cardiomyocytes derived from BJ foreskin fibroblast cells. In summary, our results demonstrate that functional cardiomyocytes can be generated from human umbilical cord–derived cells. The methodology described here has potential as a means for the production of functional cardiomyocytes from discarded human umbilical cord tissue.
Phospholipase C‐γ2 promotes intracellular survival of mycobacteria

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infects millions of people each year. These bacilli can survive inside macrophages. To favor their survival, pathogen alters various signal transduction pathways in host cells. Phospholipase C (PLC) signaling regulates various processes in mammalian cells but has never been investigated for their roles in regulating phagocytosis and killing of mycobacteria by macrophages. Here, we report that infection with Mtb but not
Mycobacterium smegmatis (MS) induces phosphorylation of PLC‐γ2 at tyrosine 1217 in J774A.1 cells. Small interfering RNA–mediated knockdown of PLC‐γ2 expression leads to the enhanced killing of both MS and Mtb by these cells suggesting that Mtb activates PLC‐γ2 to promote its intracellular survival within macrophages. Knockdown of PLC‐γ2 also lead to increased uptake of Mtb but not MS by J774.A.1 cells. Further, we have observed that PLC‐γ2 was required for Mtb‐induced inhibition of expression of proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor‐α, inducible nitric oxide synthase, and chemokine (C‐C motif) ligand 5 (RANTES). Altogether, our results for the first time demonstrate that Mtb induces activation of macrophages PLC‐γ2 to inhibit their mycobactericidal response.
