Authors: González-Rátiva María Claudia , Orozco-Arroyave Juan Rafael , Ospina Giraldo Liliana Estefania , Chaparro Manrique Erika Patricia
Published: November 2019

El debilitamiento y la elisión de /d̪/ han sido recurrentes en la historia de la lengua y se han estudiado en su dispersión geográfica, social y estilística. La dialectología y la sociolingüística hispánicas dan cuenta de tres variantes en contextos intervocálicos: las aproximantes [ð̞], [ð] y elisión [Ø]. La mayoría de estos trabajos se basan en la cartografía, en la selección impresionística o en espectrografía. Se presentarán aquí los resultados de una prueba experimental con palabras terminadas en –ado, en seis informantes de Medellín, tres hombres y tres mujeres. El objetivo es describir la naturaleza acústica de la variante de /d̪/ intervocálica en esta variedad de habla. Se proyectó una matriz de 9 medidas acústicas a una representación bidimensional mediante la técnica t-SNE para analizar agrupamientos en las variantes, lo que permitiría su clasificación automática. El propósito de la experimentación es la búsqueda de estrategias viables y eficientes desde la lingüística computacional en estudios sociolingüísticos de variación fonológica.

Authors: Pieters Louise , Lewis Jeremy , Kuppens Kevin , Jochems Jill , Bruijstens Twan , Joossens Laurence , Struyf Filip
Published: November 2019

Objective

To update a systematic review published in 2013 that focused on evaluating the effectiveness of interventions within the scope of physical therapy, including exercise, manual therapy, electrotherapy, and combined or multimodal approaches to managing shoulder pain.

Design

Umbrella review.

Literature Search

An electronic search of PubMed, Web of Science, and CINAHL was undertaken. Methodological quality was assessed using the AMSTAR (A MeaSurement Tool to Assess systematic Reviews) checklist for systematic reviews.

Study Selection Criteria

Nonsurgical treatments for subacromial shoulder pain.

Data Synthesis

Sixteen systematic reviews were retrieved. Results were summarized qualitatively.

Results

A strong recommendation can be made for exercise therapy as the first-line treatment to improve pain, mobility, and function in patients with subacromial shoulder pain. Manual therapy may be integrated, with a strong recommendation, as additional therapy. There was moderate evidence of no effect for other commonly prescribed interventions, such as laser therapy, extracorporeal shockwave therapy, pulsed electromagnetic energy, and ultrasound.

Conclusion

There is a growing body of evidence to support exercise therapy as an intervention for subacromial shoulder pain. Ongoing research is required to provide guidance on exercise type, dose, duration, and expected outcomes. A strong recommendation may be made regarding the inclusion of manual therapy in the initial treatment phase. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2020;50(3):131–141.

Aggressive granular cell tumor of the neurohypophysis with optic tract edema and invasion into third ventricle
Authors: Dai Yufei , Hagen Matthew , Andaluz Norberto , Bhabhra Ruchi
Published: November 2019

Background:

Granular cell tumors (GCTs) of the neurohypophysis are parasellar tumors arising from pituicytes in the neurohypophysis and are generally considered benign slow-growing tumors. We present a case of sellar GCT with aggressive features.

Case Description:

A 70-year-old female presented with progressive vision impairment found to have bitemporal visual field defects. Subsequent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a 2.9 cm × 2.5 cm × 2.5 cm parasellar mass with extension into the third ventricle and causing optic tract edema (OTE). Right frontotemporal orbital craniotomy was performed and the tumor was partially removed to decompress optic nerves. Pathology identified the tumor as granular tumor of the sellar region. The patient’s vision improved minimally after the surgery. Follow-up MRI after 3 months and 11 months showed stable left OTE.

Conclusion:

GCTs were thought to be benign tumors with slow growth, but they could potentially possess aggressive features and invade into surrounding structures as described in this case. OTE can be a rare MRI finding of GCTs. Only one case of GCT-related OTE has been reported in literature to our best knowledge.

Minimally invasive cervical laminectomy for spondylotic myelopathy in medically fragile patients
Authors: Ross Donald A. , O’Glasser Avital Y.
Published: November 2019

Background:

Cervical spondylotic myelopathy often affects elderly and fragile patients who are not optimal candidates for major surgical procedures. Here, we report patients previously judged not suitable for cervical surgery, who were successfully treated with minimally invasive (MI) cervical decompressions without complications.

Methods:

Retrospectively, we reviewed medically fragile patients (e.g., too many comorbidities), previously deemed unsuitable for surgery who successfully tolerated MI cervical decompressions. The accompanying preoperative comorbidities, surgical risks, complications, and neurological outcomes were assessed.

Results:

Three male patients, with a mean age of 73 years, exhibited an average preoperative modified Japanese Orthopedic Association (mJOA) score of 8. The preoperative Charlson comorbidity indices, the Elixhauser comorbidity indices (respectively averaging 5.7 and 5.7 points, the preoperative Edmonton fragility index (average 12 points), and national surgical quality improvement program risks were calculated. Surgical times averaged 185 min and patients were followed for an average of 11.3 months. No patient had any immediate or delayed postoperative complications. The length of hospital stay was 1 day for each patient. The postoperative mJOA scores averaged 11, which was clinically significant. Further, the postoperative magnetic resonance imaging obtained approximately 3 months postoperative demonstrated adequate cord decompression.

Conclusion:

Medically fragile patients with significant cervical spondylotic myelopathy but major comorbidities precluding major surgery successfully underwent MI cervical decompressions.

Authors: Beh Daniel W. , Piers Warren , Gelfand Benjamin S. , Lin Jian-Bin
Published: November 2019

A scandium hydridoborate complex supported by the dianionic pentadentate ligand B2Pz4Py is prepared via hydride abstraction from the previously reported scandium hydride complex with tris-pentafluorophenyl borane. Exposure of [(B2Pz4Py)Sc][HB(C6F5)3] to CO2 immediately forms [(B2Pz4Py)Sc][HCOOB(C6F5)3] at room temperature. The formatoborate complex can also be synthesized directly from the starting material (B2Pz4Py)ScCl with Et3SiH and B(C6F5)3 while in the presence of an atmosphere of CO2 in 81% yield. This compound was evaluated as the transition metal component of a tandem deoxgenative CO2 hydrosilation catalyst. At 5% loadings, complete consumption of Et3SiH was observed along with CO2 reduction products, but conversion to an inactive scandium complex identified as (B2Pz4Py)ScOSiEt3 was observed

Published: November 2019

Due to shorter shelf life and inadequate postharvest facilities, every year a huge loss of
banana occurs in Bangladesh. An effective postharvest practice can reduce the spoilage
rate as well as can extend the shelf life of banana. In this context, this current study was
conducted to assess the effect of banana peel extract (BPE) on shelf life and quality
characteristics of ripe banana (cultivar: sagar). Four types of ripe banana samples were
prepared and were assessed to find the changes of different physico-chemical parameters
like weight loss, color, flavor, firmness, total soluble solid (TSS), pH and spoilage rate.
Storage study showed that shelf life of banana can be extended around 2-3 days by
spraying BPE on the outer surface of ripe banana. Bananas without treatment were
completely spoiled on the fifth day of storage whereas 31.25, 50.00 and 69.23% samples
were spoiled on that day in case of bananas treated with BPE of 80% ethanol, distilled
water and acetone respectively. The best retention of color, flavor and texture was found
for samples treated with BPE of 80% ethanol. Finally, this study revealed that banana peel
can be used as a potential source to preserve banana with extended shelf stability

In the era of development of science and technology until 2019 it has become increasingly sophisticated and makes life easier for humans. This progress has led to increasingly sophisticated technology with the intention of making life easier, practical, efficient and not experiencing much difficulty. But the development of these technologies, have positive and negative impacts. Positive impacts such as convenience, while negative impacts such as air pollution. Contamination of pollutants into the air resulting from factory activities, power plants and motor vehicles spread to the environment. This substance is very damaging to the environment which causes the air we breathe to be polluted and very influential on health. This study aims to describe the process of spreading pollutant concentrations in the air originating from factory chimney fumes. Pollutants that spread in the air can be modeled with the dispersion gauss model which is processed using the MATLAB programming language. The expected results from modeling are the distance of the highest pollutant concentration area and the range of pollutant coverage that spread, so that later will be done variations of the effective height of the chimney emission (H) to get results that vary according to the height of the chimney.

Published: November 2019

Different separated protein fractions by the electrophoretic method in polyacrylamide gel were used to classify two different types of honeys, Galician honeys and commercial honeys produced and packaged outside of Galicia. Random forest, artificial neural network, and support vector machine models were tested to differentiate Galician honeys and other commercial honeys produced and packaged outside of Galicia. The results obtained for the best random forest model allowed us to determine the origin of honeys with an accuracy of 95.2%. The random forest model, and the other developed models, could be improved with the inclusion of new data from different commercial honeys.

The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the change in the total content of phenolic compounds, flavonoids, and the antioxidant capacity in Manuka Honey (MH) after gastrointestinal digestion and different purification methods. MH was subjected to an in vitro gastrointestinal simulation process, and various spectrophotometric analyses [total phenolic content, total flavonoid content (TFC), 2,2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl, ferric ion reducing antioxidant power, and Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity] were carried out on raw MH and on bioaccessible and eliminated fractions. Our results demonstrated that there was a significant decrease in the quantity of phenolic compounds (between 3.59% and 1.52% of the total amount of phenolic compounds found in undigested honey) and flavonoids in the bioaccessible fraction (between 15% and 19% of the TFC found in undigested honey) after gastrointestinal digestion and that the decrease was lower also for the antioxidant activity of the samples (ranging between 12.39% and 13.67% of the activity of raw honey), suggesting that the phenolic compounds are not only responsible for this activity. Additionally, we demonstrated that the purification method can affect the amount of phenolic compounds and the antioxidant capacity, showing that centrifugation is the most efficient method of purification.

Sonchus oleraceus Linn. is of great interest in scientific platform because it exhibits significant biological activities. This study investigated the liver protective effects and mechanism of phenolic extract from S. oleraceus (SOL) on Streptozotocin (STZ)‐induced diabetic rats. SOL significantly increased both superoxide dismutase activity and glutathione level, while causing a reduction of malondialdehyde level in the liver. Moreover, SOL ameliorates STZ‐induced liver function and pathological damages. Diabetic rats fed with S. oleraceus daily for 6 weeks showed significantly decreased levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha and interleukin‐1β in the liver. Sonchus oleraceus decreased the expression levels of MyD88, TGF‐β, and Toll‐Like Receptor (TLR)4 in the liver of diabetic rats. In conclusion, SOL possesses anti‐inflammatory activity and suppresses the TLR4/nuclear factor kappa B (NF‐κB) p65 signaling pathway.

Published: November 2019

This research intents to analyze the influence of Socio-Environmental Responsibility Policy of Brazilian’s Central Bank on financial institutions economic performance listed at the Brazilian stock exchange. The data was collected from diversified sources (websites, explanatory notes, reference form and Economatica® data base) from 2012 up to 2017. As sample, 22 financial institutions were considered for data collection and analysis. The results showed that the growth in shareholder’s equity and contingent liabilities have significant differences from the adoption of the Socio-Environmental Responsibility Policy. Considering six items of corporate governance and six items of risk management, no investigated institution presented all these mechanisms requested by Brazilian’s Central Bank. Brazilian’s financial institutions recognized a greater volume of liabilities and expenses after the implementation of such policy, which reduced their net equity. This research shed some lights in socio-environmental policies regarding corporate governance and risk management mechanisms. Objective: to analyze whether the adoption of a socio-environmental responsibility policy influences the performance indicators and the corporate governance and risk management framework of financial institutions listed on the Brazilian stock exchange. Method: Data were collected from the period 2012 to 2017, referring to 22 Brazilian financial institutions, which provided information to operationalize the variables. Results: the results showed that, from the performance indicators investigated, the growth in shareholders' equity and contingent liabilities presented significant differences as of the adoption of the socio-environmental responsibility policy. Twelve items were analyzed, six of which were corporate governance and six of risk management, noting that no investigated institution presented all the mechanisms provided by the Central Bank of Brazil. Contributions: the evidence suggests that Brazilian financial institutions began to recognize a greater volume of liabilities and expenses after the obligation to implement the socio-environmental responsibility policy, reducing their net equity. These results may be due to the improvement of the corporate governance structure and the adequacy of the risk management process.

Published: November 2019

Used cooking oil is a cooking oil that has been used several times. Used cooking oil undergoes an oxidation reaction to produce high peroxide compounds. Phenolic compounds are primary antioxidants contained in Moringa leaves which slow the oxidation down in used cooking oil so that it can be stored longer.

Formulation of the problem in this study was whether there was an inhibitory test on Moringa oleifera Leaves powder on the peroxide value in used cooking oil. The purpose of this study was to determine the inhibition of Moringa leaves powder to peroxide value on used cooking oil. This type of research was an experimental i.e. to determine whether there was the inhibition of Moringa leaves powder to the peroxide value in used cooking oil. The sample in this study was 5 samples from 6 fried traders, and repeated 5 times so that the total sample was 25 samples. Peroxide levels could be decreased due to the antioxidant content found in Moringa leaves. Antioxidants found in Moringa leaves are phenolic components. Phenolic components can inhibit free radicals and inhibit peroxide value to decrease. Moringa was suitable for areas where strong and long winds, drought occur simultaneously, and cause serious soil erosion. Nutrient content in deciduous leaves could fertilize and improve marginal soil quality (Dudi, 2015). Therefore, Moringa leaves not only have high antioxidants but also could be found easily in Surabaya.

From the results of peroxide levels test, it was known that the average peroxide value in used cooking oil without Moringa leaves was equal to 23,9957 mEq and with Moringa leaves by different time variation i.e. 1 day (14,3182 mEq), 2 days (10,7987 mEq), 3 days (6,1593 mEq), 4 days (3,0397 mEq). Statistical analysis with Anova test showed the inhibition of Moringa leaves powder to decrease in peroxide value on used cooking oil with a value of p (sig) = 0,000 which was less than 0.05. Based on the results of the Tukey HSD test, the most effective soaking of Moringa leaves powder for 4 days was to reduce peroxide levels in used cooking oil by giving 5gr Moringa leaf powder with 100ml used cooking oil.

STRATEGY IN THE CONTEXT OF ONTOLOGY OF EVENT
Authors: Bakeeva Elena Vasil'evna
Published: November 2019

The article is devoted to interpreting strategy as an ontological phenomenon. The paper identifies prerequisites for the origin and existence of this phenomenon within the neo-European ontology. Among the key ones, the author emphasizes the privileged status of a transcendental subject performing the function of knowing/transforming the world. Strategy in this context comes out as a basic means to transform reality on the basis of rationality. Problematization of the basic provisions of the neo-European ontology in the modern philosophy leads to re-interpreting the status of a subject. Under such an approach, strategy is focused on the act of subjectivity localization, which serves as a virtual “world basis”.

Authors: Egorova Ol’ga Anatol’evna
Published: November 2019

The paper analyses cognition foundations in antique philosophy formulated in Aristotle’s logic in contrast to sophists’ doctrines. The author reveals theoretical-cognitive and cultural-historical premises of logic formation in the Greek philosophy. It is shown that Aristotle’s logic, contrary to sophism, was initially focused on the problem of cognition foundations. The paper justifies the thesis that, in contrast to the sophistic doctrine based on subjectivism and relativism, Aristotle developed logic as a general theory of reasoning and a theory of argumentation, as a rational doctrine of universal objective scientific cognition.

FROM GEOPOLITICS TO BIOPOLITICS AND NETWORK COMMUNITY: TRANSFORMATION OF THE “EMPIRE” PROJECT
Authors: Somin Igor' Dmitrievich
Published: November 2019

The article considers the “empire” phenomenon in the philosophical discourse, analyses the process of its transformation from a political notion into a philosophical concept representing the phenomenon of bio-power. The author shows how radical right-wing and left-wing discourses interact with this image using it as a source of spiritual experience and as a basis for criticism of global capital. The analysis of the “empire” concept shows that due to a powerful technological leap, the accent is shifted from political and spiritual planes to the sphere of the media and biopolitics, which come out as newly emerged instruments to restrain discourse and should be thoroughly analysed.

It differs cardinally from the world-famous Peking opera and other local forms of opera art. The Sichuan opera has its own aesthetics, technique and school of singing, but its basic heritage is a unique musical style, which combines original singing in high register (gaoqiang) to the accompaniment of percussion instruments (luogu jing) with vocal and choral recital (banqiang). The author analyses the features of the vocal stylistics of the Sichuan opera, describes percussion instruments in detail and presents types of choral commenting used in the opera.

COGNITIVE THEATRE STUDIES AS AN ATTEMPT OF ANALYZING MENTAL PROCESSES IN THE CONTEXT OF POST-DRAMATIC THEATRE
Authors: Alesenkova Viktoriya Nikolaevna
Published: November 2019

The article is devoted to identifying the prospects of a new trend in theatre studies - a cognitive one, which is considered as a study of mental images and mental processes on the basis of non-verbal theatrical language. The author develops a comprehensive conception of creative thinking in relation to post-dramatic theatre, which is dichotomic by nature. Adapting certain categories of cognitive linguistics and cognitive psychology to theatrical realia, the author introduces such notions as a mythic concept, a meta-symbol and a conceptual symbol into a theatrological analysis.

TERRAIN MORPHOLOGY AS FACTOR OF LOCAL TEMPERATURES DISTRIBUTION IN UKRAINIAN CARPATHIANS
Authors: Mkrtchian Alexander , Kovalchuk Ivan
Published: November 2019

Ukrainian Carpathians like other mountainous areas are susceptible to the modern climate changes manifested mainly in accelerated warming. There are several main mechanisms of the orographic effects on temperature distribution, operating on different scales. The well-known and universally observed cooling with elevation is still often used as an over-simplified model of terrain relation to temperature regime, yet there are other significant orographic effects connected with the position of terrain features respective to incoming solar radiation angle and the large-scale movements of air masses. In Ukrainian Carpathians these effects are manifested mainly in more mild and less continental conditions on south-western macroslope that is also warmer due to larger solar radiation intake. Another important factor of temperature distribution is the formation of near-ground temperature inversions that often emerge in narrow valleys and inter-mountain troughs.
The mapping of land surface temperatures can be effectively achieved by applying spatial imagery with thermal infrared bands; in our case, Landsat 8 images allowed to obtain detailed maps of temperature distribution in Bystrytsia river basin for three different seasons of the year. An analysis has been performed of relationships between temperatures and a set of morphometric parameters, by means of raster package and appropriate functions of R software environment. Rather strong negative relationship between elevation and temperature has been revealed in all the three cases. Direct relationship between slope and temperature was not confirmed, while potential incoming solar radiation values for the date and time of the imagery appeared to have a moderate effect on temperature, its effect varying from season to season.
Key words: mountain climate; Carpathians; terrain morphology; temperature gradient; spatial analysis.
MORPHOLOGIC CLASSIFICATION OF THE BESKIDS ROCKS
IN THE UKRAINIAN CARPATHIANS
Authors: Bayrak Galyna
Published: November 2019

The article deals with morphological classification of the sandstone rocks in the Ukrainian Carpathians Beskids. By the methods of field measurements and mathematical computations the rock peaks heights, their shape, basement lengths and strata thickness have been calculated. The highest rock peaks in the Beskids amounts 32–37 m. The classification from the morphological point of view on the base of rock forms studying has been done. All rocks are divided in two classes: the rocks-outliers and the rocks-outcrops. Among the rocks-outliers 4 types are defined: spire-shaped, chain-shaped, arc-shaped and combined. Spire-shaped rocks are divided into subtypes: tower, spoke and needle. Among the chain-shaped rocks 3 subtypes are defined: wall, bloc and slab. The rocks of combined form are divided into subtypes: 1) with defined form – those of the rocks which are similar to certain objects and 2) undefined forms (cliffs). Among the rocks-outcrops three types are defined: cliff-shaped, canyon-shaped and angular ones. The class of rocks-outliers occurs most often. Among the types the rocks-towers occur most often. They dominate in the rock formations of Urych, Yamelnytsia and Bubnyshche. Many bloc-shaped and plate-shaped rocks are located on the Kliuch Ridge, in Bubnys’ki Rocks, Yamelnytsia. There are rocks-walls of 50–60 m in Urych and Yamelnytsia. The longest rock-wall in Danylov tract near Yamelnytsia has been investigated. Its length is 150 m and height is 17 m. Some needle and spoke rocks are situated in Bubnys’ki Rocks (Odinets’ Rock, Golets’ Rock) and Urych (Hostryi Kamin’ (Sharp Stone) Rock. Unique types are very rare. For instance: Bronenosets’ Rock in Bubnys’ki Rocks (this rock has shape of sail), Sokil (Falcon) Rock in the Kliuch Ridge, mushroom-shaped rock in Yamelnytsia. There is also unique arc-rock in the Kliuch Ridge. In the class of rocks-outcrops the types of cliff and canyon occur equally. The angular-shaped rocks are rarer. The cliff-shaped rocks are situated near Sokolova Mountain, Pozhernytsia Mountain and Kniazhi (Princes) Rocks near Tyshivnytsia. Unique rocks-canyons, the effects of tectonic breaking and gravity-erosion processes, occur on the Kliuch Ridge. The worked out morphological classification of rocks can be used by ascertaining features of rock morphogenesis with education and scientific purposes as well as by assessment of safety level and protection possibilities. Morphological types of the rocks can be considered as valuable objects of geomorphologic heritage and attractions for geo-tourism.
Key words: rocks; morphology type of the rock; rock shape; Beskids of Ukrainian Carpathians.

Authors: Brusak Vitaliy , Senychak Diana
Published: November 2019

The classification of the monuments of non-living nature of the basins of Prut and Lazeshchyna rivers in Chornohora mountain range in Ukrainian Carpathians as well as map, tables and suggestions for further alternative use of objects are presented. In the
research the monuments of non-living nature are categorized such as geological, geomorphological and hydrological based on the main object of their value for protection.
The classification of the geological and geomorphological monuments according to different principles such as meaningful, scientific and cognitive significance, genetic, purpose and size is developed. According to the main object of their value for protection and the genesis objects are classified into types of monuments, and by morphological expression – into species of monuments. The other methods of the research of monuments of non-living nature such as cartographic inventory and comprehensive certification are also presented.
The river basins of Prut and Lazeshchyna are located on the northeast macro-slope of the Chornohora mountain range in the Ukrainian Carpathians in the area of the Carpathian Biosphere Reserve and the Carpathian National Nature Park. On the territory of the studied river basins 11 geological monuments, 23 – geomorphological monuments, 7 – hydrological and hydrogeological monuments are identified. There are also 9 sites of fir forests and 14 sites of ancient forests protected in the Carpathian Biosphere Reserve in the Lazeshchyna river basin. On the territory of the Prut river basin there are 81 sites of ancient forests and primeval forests in the area of the Carpathian National Nature Park.
The monuments of non-living nature can be used not only as the conservation ones but also as the places for recreation and tourism, organization of research and environmental education of the region. In addition, 2 multi-day, 1 two-day and 9 one-day geotourism routes to promote the natural resources of the studied river basins with the purpose to reduce the recreational degression of the main eco-trail “To the Goverla Mountain” are developed.
Key words: monuments of non-living nature; geological sites; Chornohora mountain range; Prut river basin; Lazeshchyna river basin; geotourism route.
