A edición de textos en Galicia  (da Idade Media aos Séculos Escuros)
Authors: Boullón Ana
Published: April 2018

O obxectivo deste traballo é revisar as edicións dos textos medievais en prosa (literarios e documentais) e mais os dos chamados Séculos Escuros (XVI-XVIII) en Galicia. A produción escrita medieval foi moi grande, aínda que dos textos literarios subsistiron ata hoxe moi poucos, e todos eles foron obxecto de edición, con maior ou menor fortuna ecdótica. É diferente o caso dos milleiros de documentos notariais esparexidos por distintos arquivos galegos e españois: dos que están publicados, só unha pequena proporción está editada con criterios filolóxicos, con respecto ás súas características lingüísticas. Por último, a heteroxeneidade, dificultade de recolleita e o menor valor literario dos textos do galego medio comportou que en parte estean editados deficientemente, aínda que nos últimos anos vaise progresando nese labor. En todos estes procesos o Instituto da Lingua Galega (ILG - Universidade de Santiago de Compostela) tivo un papel fundamental, tanto nas edicións filolóxicas dos textos editados coma nos proxectos en marcha.
Blood Pressure Lowering Effect of Fermented Milk Products
Authors: ABD EL-SALAM Mohamed H. , EL-SHİBİNY Safinaz
Published: April 2018

Hypertension (HTN) is a major risk factor for the development of cardiovascular
diseases. Therefore, there is a need to lower blood pressure (BP) to reduce the
risk of these degenerative diseases. Fermented milks contain several potential
factors that can lower BP including calcium and microbial metabolites
particularly the angiotension-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptides and
γ-aminobutyric acid.  Animal studies
clearly demonstrated the BP lowering effect of fermented milk while results
from clinical trials were controversial due to a large number of variables that
should be considered in clinical trials. An overview on the antihypertensive effect
of fermented milk products is presented and discussed in this review.

Published: April 2018

Sahlep powder is obtained by drying and grinding after the plant tubers of the Orchidaceae family removed from the soil. Sahlep powder, which is unique to Turkey, is used in Maras ice cream, sahlep beverage and medicine production. There is a growing interest in healthy nutrition in the world. This increasing is increased the demand for functional food. Whey proteins are increasingly used in foods in recent years due to the functional compounds they contain. In this study, it was tried to increase the functional properties of sahlep using Whey proteins. For this purpose, different Sahlep powder was prepared by using Whey protein concentrate (WPC 35%), demineralized whey protein powder, milk powder, sahlep, sugar, starch, cinnamon and ginger. The different Sahlep produced were made into sahlep beverage with water and pH, viscosity and sensory analysis were made. As a result of the analyzes made, the use of Whey proteins statistically affected the viscosity value of the sahlep beverage. It was determined that the use of different whey proteins affected the color, taste and smell values of Sahlep. As a result of the sensory evaluation performed by the panelists, sahlep beverage produced in 25% whey protein concentrate (WPC 35%) + 75% milk powder mixture was preferred. It is may be suggested to produce sahlep powder and sahlep beverage by using 25% whey protein concentrate (WPC 35%) + 75% milk powder mixture.
O COSTUME NA TEORIA PURA DO DIREITO: UMA ANÁLISE PELO MÉTODO DA HISTÓRIA DO DIREITO
Authors: Rossi Juliano Scherner
Published: April 2018

Será analisado o costume jurídico na Teoria Pura do Direito, de Hans Kelsen, a partir do método da história do direito: se a Teoria Pura articula de algum modo história do direito como elemento de sua proposta metodológica quando trata do costume e como. Tem-se então não a Teoria Pura na história, mas a história na Teoria Pura. Na primeira seção é apresentada uma proposta metodológica para a história do direito, com base nas obras de Costa, Grossi e Hespanha. Na segunda, é feita análise da proposta de pureza metodológica da Teoria Pura. Na última, é discutido o costume na Teoria Pura e se a abordagem de Kelsen acerca da vigência da norma costumeira incorpora elementos de história do direito, segundo o método proposto. A questão jurídica no exame do costume diz respeito à existência de um ato de vontade que estabeleça o costume como norma e seu conteúdo desta. O método da história do direito é útil para averiguação dos dois aspectos, mas Kelsen não estabelece um método para investigação do costume ou sua formação (especula-se que em razão da própria pureza metodológica). O método histórico se aplica sem prejuízo do método kelseniano, no âmbito  de cada um, o que revele abertura deste em relação àquele.
GOOD ADMINISTRATION: THE PRINCIPLE OF TRANSPARENCY AND ITS USE BY THE INTERNATIONAL CIVIL SOCIETY
Authors: Migliari Wellington , Solé Juli Ponce
Published: April 2018

The principle of transparency is one of the cornerstones in governance debate. It orients more creditable practices for the making of public policies and draws citizens’ attention to the combat of corruption. In addition, less opaque relations in public-private businesses may strengthen the confidence of investors and tend to deconstruct asymmetric relations in long-running scenarios. Nonetheless, it is important to bring to the fore in that debate the birth of a transversal rationality that has forged civil society in the international community beyond the national borders. More and more, civil actors on social media networks organise debates and opinions from local platforms to elaborate worldwide topics. The aim of the present article is to suggest transparency as a local response born inside States and conceived by the civil society to confront abuses of global economic powers. Comparative analyses on constitutions and domestic legislations related to transparency usually show how asymmetric can be the perception of private investments and public sectors; the former mostly seen as virtuous and the latter vicious.

Published: April 2018

Eyes are delicate and most vital organs of the body whose defence mechanism restricts entry of exogenous substance.
Conventional drug delivery systems get washed off within a short period of time that usually cause poor bioavailability
and therapeutic responses because high tear fluid turnover and dynamics cause rapid elimination of the drug from the eye.
In-situ gelling ophthalmic drug delivery system is one of the new methods that is developed to overcome this bioavailability
problems. In-situ gelling systems are viscous polymerbased liquids that exhibit sol-to-gel phase transition on the ocular
surface due to a change in a specific physicochemical parameter like temperature, ionic strength, or pH triggered in-situ
systems. Using this formulation of pH triggered in-situ gel systems, the release of drug can be sustained for longer periods
of time, therapeutically more efficacious, non-irritant and stable than conventional eye drops.

Published: April 2018

The present work describes the optimization of spray dried powder of solid lipid-based nanosystems to improve drug stability, surface modification and to obtain nanosystems after redispersion. Chitosan coated solid lipid nanoparticles containing bromocriptine mesylate (cBMSLN) were prepared by high pressure homogenization technique following by chitosan addition. For spray drying, response surface methodology with central composite rotatable design was to optimize 3 parameters: inlet temperature, pump rate and feed concentration. From regression analysis, powder yield, moisture content and size of redispersed nanoaggregates as responses were fitted well with linear, quadratic and quadratic equation models, respectively. Spherical powders with size of 4-5 µm and 70% yield were obtained at optimum parameters which were also used to prepare powder of chitosan coated nanostructured lipid carriers containing BM (cBMNLC). Amorphous characteristics were confirmed from powder XRD patterns and DSC chromatograms in all prepared powders. Redispersion of powders yielded nanosystems of some original nanosize and a greater portion of larger size. Smoother surface of NLC systems was observed, so was with chitosan coating. Drug entrapment was >85% but significantly decreased in chitosan coated formulations while drug retention after spray drying showed opposite results. After storage, spray dried powder could retain higher drug content than the original nanosystems. Obviously, NLC systems had better drug stability results than SLN systems. It could be concluded that redispersible spray dried powders of chitosan coated lipid-based nanosystems especially NLC systems were successfully obtained with surface modification, nanoaggregate size range and improved drug stability.Keywords: Solid lipid nanoparticles, nanostructure lipid carriers, chitosan, spray drying, optimization, redispersion, bromocriptine mesylate

Publications devoted to the organizational structure of library and information services are analysed. It is shown how the organizational structure of services has historically changed; in what periods, in addition to the Reading room, there appeared Lending department, Extension library service, Reference and bibliographic division, Mass work department, Media library, Center for legal and social information, Remote library service, etc. There are proved the reasons caused the emergence of new structural divisions: changes in society and culture, growth of the number of users, increase in demand for separate types of documents, etc. There are presented characteristic features of structuring within library and information services: the category of users, the form of service provided and terms of receiving the service, the area or subject of documents, the type of documents, the language of the document text, the function performed by the employee. The analysis of structure of library and information services of 55 regional libraries of the Russian Federation is presented. There are compared the structures of these libraries in 1980 and now. It is shown that changes in the structure of library and information services are associated with the use of modern information and communication technologies, certain steps in humanization of society in relation to people with disabilities and other socially vulnerable groups of the population, with the aim to preserve the tradition of reading, regional culture, culture of small peoples, as well as the need to attract a significant number of people to the library as an information and cultural centre, and to make it attractive for the young people.
The Theme of the Revolution in the Children’s Books of the 1920-ies
Authors: Fomin Dmitry V.
Published: April 2018

Reflection of the events of the October Revolution of 1917 in the domestic publications for children in the 1920-ies — early 1930-ies is a very significant and interesting, but insufficiently studied topic. This theme had been mainly explored from the standpoint of literary analysis, without considering peculiarities of the crucial component of the books graphics. In the article there is made an attempt to analyse mainly from the bibliological and art critical point of view a number of editions, directly or indirectly related to the theme of Revolution, to consider stylistic features of their external design, to identify the most typical art techniques used by illustrators of those years. The considered period is interesting because there were no ready-made models to emulate for the writers and artists, there were no rigid canons of the “Revolutionary children book”; the most important topic from the point of view of Soviet ideology had been mastered by trial-and-error method. In the mid-1920-ies, writers and graphic artists preferred the allegorical, fairy-tale interpretations of the Revolution theme: in the illustrative cycles of such different masters, as M.V. Dobuzhinsky, B.V. Joganson, D.A. Bulanov, V.S. Tvardovsky, the victorious revolts were committed in a fantastic country, in the kingdom of toys or in the world of animals. Rather unsuccessful should be recognized the experience of graphical interpretation of revolutionary themes with the use of heavy-weight allegories; much more convincing, though not undisputed, was the method of describing the class battles from the point of view of a child. In publications of the early 1930-ies, all sorts of allegory give way to the direct access to the historical events of 1917; however, the graphical language of the books remains conditional. In the works of A.I. Poret, P.M. Kondratyev, B.I. Inozemtsev, N.V. Svinenko, the epic scale of the Revolution is emphasized with the use of unexpected lines of sight, bold spatial solutions; and primitive style is often synthesized with the techniques of avant-garde art. Using different strategies of mythologization and poetization of the Revolution, illustrators were successfully resolving the problem of not only political, but also aesthetic education of the younger generation.
Bibliography of A.I. Solzhenitsyn: the History, Problems and Solutions
Authors: Semenova Elizaveta P.
Published: April 2018

The article describes the history of creation of Biobibliographic Index “Alexander Isayevich Solzhenitsyn. Materials for Biobibliography” dedicated to A.I. Solzhenitsyn – the outstanding Russian writer, Nobel Laureate and public figure – from the bibliographic chapter planned in the 1960-ies to the Index in two volumes, being prepared for publication in 2018.

The Index contains the list of all works by A.I. Solzhenitsyn from 1962 to 2017: released both as separate editions and published in the periodical press, as well as the literature about his life and creative activity. The first section includes the book editions and works by the writer published in journals, newspapers and non-author’s collections. They are grouped by genre principle — prose, drama, poetry. The bibliographic records are arranged in chronological order (by date of publication). The second section “Literature on A.I. Solzhenitsyn’s Life and Works” includes a variety of publications, devoted to the writer entirely or partially. The key to the disclosure of the substantive content of each entry is a classified index, where the heading titles reflect the landmarks of A.I. Solzhenitsyn’s life and creative heritage, identified in the process of the compilers’ acquaintance with the critical literature de visu. This index helps the user to navigate in the extensive corpus of literature devoted to the writer and in selection of materials on the subject of interest.

The author considers the problems encountered by the compilers, as well as the ways of their solution and defines this publication as the first experience in Russia in preparing a large-scale bibliographic collection dedicated to A.I. Solzhenitsyn.

Activity patterns in male and female wheelchair tennis matches
Authors: Sánchez-Pay Alejandro , Sanz-Rivas David
Published: April 2018

The aim of this study was to compare activity patterns between male and female wheelchair tennis (WT) matches. Sixteen singles international WT matches (eight male and eight female) were analysed. Each match was recorded and analysed according to the following variables: total match time (minutes), total set time (minutes), effective playing time (%), total resting time (%), working time: resting time ratio (W:R), resting time between points (seconds), rally duration (seconds), points per set, shots per set, shots per rally, bounces per point, and time between shots (seconds). A Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare between the genders and Wilcoxon test was used to compare variables with the type of point (non-game point opportunity – NGO, and game point opportunity – GO). Female matches showed higher values (p<.05) in rally duration, bounces per point, and frequency of shots than male matches. Both genders spent more time between points in GO than in NGO situation. The findings indicate that male and female players play in a different way, and these differences should be taken into consideration by the WT coaches.
Psychological aspects of sports injuries among male professional soccer players in Croatia
Authors: Madžar Tomislav , Hrabač Pero
Published: April 2018

The aim of this study was to assess occurrence of sports injuries among professional male soccer players in relation to their psychological characteristics. This prospective cohort study was conducted during the 2013/2014 sports season among all professional players with the first team contract in the first Croatian soccer league. A stratified sample of 182 male soccer players were selected for the assessment. They were surveyed during their preparation period before the beginning of the season and were under monitoring during the season. Seriousness of injuries was assessed depending on the length (one day or more) of players’ non-participation in sports activities. Psychological characteristics were assessed by the General Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7), Revised Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, impulsive behaviour scale from the Zuckerman-Kuhlman Personality Questionnaire Cross-Cultural 50-item version and Psychological Skills Inventory for Sports. Majority of players (62.6%) experienced a kind of injury, with the mean number of 1.28 injuries per player, and 30.7% of them contracted severe injuries. Results of the binary regression model suggest that likelihood of being injured is mostly influenced by higher Impulsive Sensation Seeking and GAD-7 scores (OR=1.26 in both cases). In contrast, adequate mental preparation significantly lowers the chance of being injured (OR=0.89).The study adds an insight into proportions, severity, mechanisms and number of sport injuries in the population of Croatian professional soccer players. We propose several variables as important predictors of future injuries. Some scales, commonly used in this field, have been shown to be less useful in injury prediction.
Building a Ukrainian Identity in Odessa: Negotiation of Markers and Informal Nationalism
Authors: Polese Abel
Published: April 2018

A large and established body of literature on nation building in post-socialist spaces has initially put emphasis on state-centred construction of identity references and markers such as language, education or institutions and governance. In contrast, a recent stream of scholarship has attempted to bring agency into identity debates to propose new tools and approaches that can be used in the study of identity construction. This article is a further exploration of the latter position. It looks at the way identities are constructed, and renegotiated, at the everyday level, by ordinary people, by illustrating the competition between Russian and Ukrainian languages in Odessa, a Ukrainian city on the Black sea, to look at the synergy generated by the competition between local and national narratives.
Discretion and Decentralization: Public Administrators Dilemmas in Bureaucracy Innovation Initiatives

Policy discretion shall not be construed as a free authority by the public administrator. The positive side discretion is answered to an urgent need, the ambiguity caused the existing policy. The focus this researched would like to explore further the public administrator dilemmas perform some correlation between policy discretion and decentralization, discretion and initiation of bureaucracy innovation. The research method applied is qualitative, descriptive analysis is adopted based on secondary data and information sources. Triangulation is used to draw conclusions carefully from a variety of data sources. The research concludes the initiation of bureaucracy innovation is the urgent needs at this time, and discretion one of the tools that can be used as a policy outside the formal policy not set explicitly on the different the element related with innovation. The unique thing is not all public administrators like and can do discretion, there is a logical consideration that must be met to assess and translate discretion, capability and sufficient knowledge is some logical considerations it is. Bias interpretation will cause negative effects like opening a chance doing the corruption, collusion, nepotism and the occurrence of criminalization policy procedures.
An impact of genetic variation and predation on chick survival in willow ptarmigan Lagopus l. lagopus
Authors: Rørvik Kjell‐Arne , Pedersen Hans Christian , Steen Johan B.
Published: April 2018

The present study investigates the determinants of chick survival in willow ptarmigan Lagopus l. lagopus. Chick survival was negatively associated with genetic relatedness of mates. This may imply that more chicks die when genetic relatedness of mates is high, i.e. low chick heterozygosity at hatching. Hence, newly hatched chicks with low heterozygosity may have reduced viability and, therefore, might suffer higher mortality due to biotic/abiotic conditions. However, there was no association between the proportion of chicks with low heterozygosity and ambient temperature, but a highly significant association with predation pressure was found. Because newly hatched chicks are unable to maintain their body temperature even at normal ambient temperatures and because willow ptarmigan chicks start chirping when they get cold, it is suggested that chicks with low genetic variation may become more exposed to predation. It is proposed that genetic variation significantly affects viability of ptarmigan chicks, but that predation is the proximate cause of death. Consistent with several earlier studies, predation was related both to nesting females and to survival of the chicks. However, the present study extends these findings by suggesting a relationship between predation on one side and genetic constitution on the other, and that predation on nesting females, by reducing genetic variation among chicks at hatching, enhance chick mortality.
Use of pellet group counts in determining density and habitat use of mooseAlces alcesin Finland
Authors: Härkönen Sauli , Heikkilä Risto
Published: April 2018

In Finland, monitoring of the mooseAlces alcespopulation has been based on moose sighting cards and on aerial or ground censuses. However, considerable criticism has been levelled at these techniques, and there is an increasing need for alternative census methods in monitoring and managing moose populations. In this study, pellet group counts were carried out to determine the density and habitat use of moose in a wintering area in central Finland. Pellet group counts were made using both strip and plot sampling procedures. Estimates of moose density depended significantly on the sampling procedures and on the parameters used. Moose density estimates based on plots were twice those based on strips. Different plot intervals in plot sampling gave similar results. Both sampling procedures gave similar results concerning the habitat use of moose. The highest pellet group densities were observed in young Scots pinePinus sylvestrisdominated thinning stands where winter food availability is considerably high. Because food is a limiting factor in winter, pellet group numbers should obviously well reflect moose habitat affinity, which can be classified in terms of forest stand characteristics. Pellet group counts could possibly be used to estimate population densities for moose management. However, it would appear that the plot method, which up to now is the widely used method, overestimates moose densities. Because of the great variation in the results, other possible sources of error in the parameters used should also be taken into account in order to improve the accuracy of the method to be applied.

The value of the R square is 0.99874 which is very good. It means that the 99 percent variations exist in dependent variable due to independent variables.
'The one and only true and salvational faith'
Authors: Harmainen Antti
Published: April 2018

In the 1880s, the religious life in Finland was in the midst of a turbulent period which, for some, presented a threat to traditional moral values and social cohesion while for others it was the beginning of a new, more liberal era. During this period, new ideas and religious currents also stirred in the local milieu. For example, modern Western esoteric currents played a role in the process as well as many other ideological, scientific and religious phenomena. This article scrutinizes the period in question by focusing on a writing individual who entered the field of Finnish public debate somewhat suddenly. For him, the time was all about creating the best possible religion from all the ingredients that contemporary debate could offer.
Esotericism in reverse

Published: April 2018

Western esotericism appears to be a field most precarious in terms of positioning. This article will highlight the divide between ‘critics’ and ‘religionists’ from a pre-Enlightenment position by discussing René Descartes’ role within esotericism. The study attempts to show that a pro-Enlightenment predilection tends to blur its object of research as to the kinds of knowledges that are under scrutiny. The conclusions drawn from the case of Descartes suggests that the perception of what the ‘esoteric’ in modern studies is generally agreed upon being, is reversed.

This case happened because the company allegedly shirking the implementation of social and environmental responsibility of theirs.The purpose of this study was to analyze the implementation of the activities of social and environmental responsibility of a company, and then connect the involvement of social environmental responsibility with the potential of alleged corporate crime. Using the content analysis method, the results showed that social and environmental responsibility of a company is very important to be implemented. In addition, management as manager of the company must always run actions guided by the principles of good governance. If the principles of good governance are not implemented by management, corporate actions whether intentional or not, will be more vulnerable and has the potential to intersect with corporate crime.

There were 26 field and micropolish experiments with biological preparations of associative nitrogen-fixing bacteria’ results generalized. Experiences were carried out, yields were recorded, chemical contamination of the spring wheat and agrochemical soil properties were analyzed in accordance with standard methods. The experiences scheme: 1. Р30-90К30-90 (natural level); 2. Natural level + N30; 3. Natural level + biopreparation; 4. Natural level + N30 + biopreparation. The spring wheat seeds were treated by rhyzoargin biopreparation producted in the all – Russian Agricultural Microbiology Research Institute on the basis of stock culture Agrobacterium radiobakter genus. Their use efficiency on spring wheat that was cultivated on different backgrounds of mineral nutrition was determined for the main types of soils that presented at the European part of Russia. It is established that the spring wheat seeds’ inoculation with the biopreparation Rhyzoagrin provides the grain productivity’ increase on the PK-fertilizer’ background: on the black soils – 23%, on the gray forest soils – 14%, on the sod-podzolic soils 13-18%. In the application of the diazotrophs biopreparations the nitrogen utilization from mineral fertilizers is growing in 1.6 times on the Chernozem soils and in 1.2 times on the sod-podzolic soils. Due to the associative nitrogen fixation under the spring wheat 8-10 kg N/ha per year on the sod-podzolic loamy soils and 12 kg N/ha per year on the black soil are accumulated in the European part of Russia.

Short Comparative Interrupted Time Series Using Aggregate School-Level Data in Education Research
Authors: Hallberg Kelly , Williams Ryan , Swanlund Andrew , Eno Jared
Published: April 2018

Short comparative interrupted times series (CITS) designs are increasingly being used in education research to assess the effectiveness of school-level interventions. These designs can be implemented relatively inexpensively, often drawing on publicly available data on aggregate school performance. However, the validity of this approach hinges on a variety of assumptions and design decisions that are not clearly outlined in the literature. This article aims to serve as a practice guide for applied researchers when deciding how and whether to use this approach. We begin by providing an overview of the assumptions needed to estimate causal effects using school-level data, common threats to validity faced in practice and what effects can and cannot be estimated using school-level data. We then examine two analytic decisions researchers face in practice when implementing the design: correctly modeling the pretreatment functional form, which is modeling the preintervention trend, and selecting comparison cases. We then illustrate the use of this design in practice drawing on data from the implementation of the school improvement grant (SIG) program in Ohio. We conclude with advice for applied researchers implementing this design.
