Implication of Perceived Spaces Toward Visitors' Learning Motivation In Rumah Atsiri Indonesia
Authors: Kesumasari Diana
Published: January 2020

Rumah Atsiri Indonesia (RAI) is an edu-recreation complex located in Tawangmangu. RAI adopts “experiencing essence” concept through a comprehensive informal learning about essential oils. RAI’s challenge as an educational leisure setting sets a lead to the main research goal: how visitors perceived spaces in RAI and related them to learning motivation. The observation areas were focused on Museum Gallery and the Essential Oils Collection Gardens. These areas provide most knowledge about essential oils to visitors. Data and information were analyzed qualitatively, by comparing physical settings characteristics of observation areas, person-centered mapping and results of informal interviews and questionnaires. As the result, this research showed that there was relation between physical setting characterictics and visitors’ learning motivation. Visitors were more motivated to learn in Essential Oils Collection Gardens, especially in outdoor garden. In this area, visitors got richer experiences because visitors had more freedom in exploring essential oil plants. As a performative space that emphasizes visitors as active participants, this area could stimulated visitors’ emotional and memories through five senses. The adventurous feeling also can be seen from some architectural factors, such as circuitous path with shortcuts, ramps and stairs, which resulting “Learning for Fun” concept. While in Museum Gallery, visitors circulation and media displays were controlled. As a narrative space that put forward the storyline about the history of essential oils, evidently, visitors got bored easily and show no interest in learning which was reflected in their withdrawal behaviors. Stimulation to visitor’s senses were also limited to sight and hearing, so visitors could not be active participant. Learning motivation was also influenced by intrapersonal factors, but these factors were not analyzed further in this research. Some architectural factors that influenced visitors’ learning motivation include: space characteristics, binding scale categories, and media display types.Keywords: Essential Oils; Informal Learning; Physical Settings

Building Information Modeling Concept And Its Application in Building Renovation Stage In Term Of Time Efficiency
Authors: Machdi Ardhiana Muhsin
Published: January 2020

Abstract—Nowadays Building Information Modeling, known as BIM has become a common topic in construction technology. Indonesian government has even accelerated the implementation of BIM as a requirement in planning above 2000 m2 since year 2018. The word renovation in BIM life cycle means one of the post-project building phases after maintenance, rehabilitation but before reach demolition phases as an ending of the building. On the other hand, renovation is not a strange thing for the Indonesian people and has direct meaning to its activity. Even though occupying a new property, there is always a tendency to change, add or even reduce some parts of existing buildings. Renovation is also unavoidable when there is a change in function in a building and it can be classified as adaptive reuse as part of the concept of sustainable building, a preservation and rehabilitation of an old building that has unique design or contains certain historical significance. This research is structured and focuses more on the issue of time efficiency which is very significant in the renovation stage. The method used in the form of a comparison between conventional methods with methods that apply the BIM concept. This is interesting to be observed as the benefits of research so that the concept of BIM can be understood and seen its real advantages.Keywords—building information modeling, renovation, efficiency

Changes in the modern Russian language AND A.P. Skovorodnikov's contribution to their re-search
Authors: Sirotinina Olga Borisovna
Published: January 2020

The article is dedicated to the 90th anniversary of A. P. Skovorodnikov. It analyses his immense contribution to linguistics. He has been a pioneer in different scholarly fields, he is also well-known for his organizing activities: A. P. Skovorodnikov edited many textbooks, joint monographs, dictionaries on speech culture, effective communication and speech ecology. The author of the article points out thoroughness and profoundness as distinctive features of this scholar. The second part of the research is focused on the fast-growing changes in the Russian language which are establishing in the 21st century, their background and risks they cause. Particular attention is paid to the problem of impoverishment and vulgarization of modern Russian speech which occurs due to mental effort reduction of the native speakers, the loss of important moral concepts in their vocabulary and consciousness, and also because of connotations changes in some of these concepts. The conclusions are based on the monitoring survey performed by the author, on study of the students’ papers and every day discourse. The author is hopeful that the Russian language will stand out all the calamities as it did so in the past.
Cultural code and cognitive functions of Turkish Cyrillic
Authors: Tagaev Mamed Dzhakypovich
Published: January 2020

Using the example of the Kyrgyz language the article aims to prove that the graphic that has been established and has been operating for a sufficiently long time in this ethnic group as a way of storing information, performing cognitive functions, becomes an integral part of the mental state of a person and the cultural code of a nation.
This issue is considered in the historical and cultural aspect, reflecting the stages of reforming the graphics of the Kyrgyz language and the replacement of one writing system with another. Previous writing systems (Arabic and Latin), that used to operate for a relatively short period of time, remained alien to the way of life and the linguistic picture of the world that prevailed among the Kyrgyz in the post-revolutionary period. In the 20s, the Kyrgyz made a dizzying leap from the Middle Ages to the Eurasian reality represented by the Russian world. The values of world civilization, new concepts and terms entered the life of the Kyrgyz through the Russian language and its graphics, which was adopted in 1940. For the modern Kyrgyz, the leanings and concepts of the surrounding reality were established in Cyrillic characters, which continue to be a form of linguistic existence of a person, and the Cyrillic itself has become the cultural code of the Kyrgyz nation for 80 years of its use.
Under these conditions, the transition to the Latin alphabet after the example of other countries of Central Asia can have disastrous consequences for Kyrgyzstan.
The influence of Hesychast philosophy on the monks’ speech practice (the case of the epistolary texts of the Russian Orthodox monasticism of the 20th century)
Authors: Smolina Andzhella  Nikolaevna
Published: January 2020

This article deals with issues related to the interaction of language and religion, such as the influence of Hesychasm philosophy on the speech of Russian Orthodox monks, which shows itself primarily at the ideological level. Referring to the epistolary texts of Russian Orthodox monks-writers of the XX century, the author shows the features of the fundamental ideas of the religious and philosophical doctrine of Hesychasts represented in the language. It is stated that the main representatives of the Hesychast ideas in the epistolary texts of Russian Orthodox monasticism of the XX century are overwords units and words nominating these ideas, as well as derivatives of nominees. It is noted that representatives of the ideas of salvation, theosis, transfiguration, silence, seclusion, etc. belong to the Orthodox vocabulary corpus of spiritual and moral content. The author refers to the use of words and verwords units from the subject area of Hesychasm and specific etiquette speech formulas of greetings and farewells to the distinctive linguistic features of the epistolary texts of Orthodox monks-writers. The question of the influence of prayer making on monastic speech, which forms its distinctive character, is discussed separately: the monk's speech is unique in its prayerfulness and richness with prayers lexis (which reflects a deep mental immersion in prayer texts of different eras).
Associative fields of ethnonyms “the Russians” and “the Chinese” in the Russian-Chinese juxtaposition
Authors: Speranskaya Alevtina Nikolaevna , Wang Tianju
Published: January 2020

The article presents the results of two associative experiments, which were conducted among students of humanitarian specialties of two universities – Siberian Federal University (Russia) and Lanzhou University (China). The ethnonyms “the Russians” and “the Chinese” which constitute a part of the basic opposition “our own – other/stranger alien)” were taken as word stimuli. The author is not only engaged with comparing “the images of the other / foreign” but also describes self-characteristics of the Russian and Chinese students. As a result of the survey, there were obtained data for four groups: the Russians describing themselves; the Russians describing the Chinese; the Chinese describing the Russians and the Chinese describing themselves. The hypothesis of the study was that there is the dependence of the similarity between the cores of the verbal-associative fields in two groups of respondents on the degree of their tolerance to the representations of other people’s national and cultural specifics. These experiments showed that the leading characteristics of self-identification and those based on “the view from the outside” coincided in the two groups of respondents. These were diligence and politeness for the Chinese people; strength, courage and benevolence for the Russians. The Russian students did not mention modesty while reflecting on the collective image of “the Chinese”, though this is a trait which the Chinese themselves consider the most characteristic for their nation. The description of the appearance of “other (stranger/alien)” has the same parameters for both nations, these parameters being height, eyes, skin color, but at the same time the evaluations opposed each other. The Chinese see the appearance of the Russians as attractive, whereas in the answers of the Russians who evaluated the Chinese people’s appearance negative characteristics prevail. In general, the image of the other/stranger/alien in both groups was fractional, with a lot of different peculiarities.
Solution of Fault Accommodation Problem in Nonlinear Systems by Methods of Linear Algebra
Authors: Zhirabok A. N. , Zuev A. V. , Bobko E. Yu. , Filatov A. L.
Published: January 2020

Solution of the problem of fault accommodation in nonlinear dynamic systems is related to constructing the control law which provides full decoupling with respect to fault effects. The possibility of this solution is strictly limited by the demand on the system state vector availability (this vector is immediately included into control law description). As a rule, not all components of the state vector are immediately measurable at practice. Also, it is impossible to estimate full state vector for the system with unknown (affected by the faults) dynamics. The purpose of this article is to solve the problem of full decoupling by constructing a compensator that is independent of the fault effects a nd is based on a new control law. A solution is based on so-called logic-dynamic approach using only linear methods to solve the problem for nonlinear systems. The implementation of this method does not require a preliminary estimation of the parameters. It is assumed that fault detection and isolation procedure is performed by known methods. Assume the fault occurred and detected, then a solution of the control problem is performed on the basis of additional system that corresponding in a definite sense to the initial model. To solve the problem of accommodation, an efficient algorithm based on a logical-dynamic approach is presented, as a result of which a compensator is constructed. Additional system does not contain unknown vector that describes defects. As a result, fault accommodation effect is achieved. Theoretical results are demonstrated by illustrative and illustrative example.
About the Operator’s Gaits in the Passive Exoskeleton of the Lower Extremities when Using the Fixed Knee Mode
Authors: Lavrovsky E. K. , Pismennaya E. V.
Published: January 2020

A dynamic model of motion in the sagittal plane of the passive exoskeleton of the lower extremities, integrated with a similar model of a human operator that determines the movement of the whole structure, is considered. The exoskeleton is designed to help the operator to move additional point load, placed in the "backpack" on the back. The design of the exoskeleton does not have active propulsive elements in the joints; it is endowed with only a semi-automatic system for locking or releasing the knee joints at certain stages of movement, which, however, affect the overall gait pattern. The energy costs and peak values of the control torques that the human operator applies in the process of moving the exoskeleton on certain types of regular, flat, single-support walkings are studied. The results obtained allow us to estimate the effectiveness of the mode of locking-releasing the knee joint used by such devices. Both cases of impact-free transitions to the locked knee mode and transitions accompanied by the occurrence of shock effects in a dynamic system were investigated. In mathematical modeling, the mass inertial characteristics of the human body were taken into account in accordance with the data adopted in anthropology.

Authors: Yazdani Samira , Bouzarjomehri Fathollah , Slessinger Eric
Published: January 2020

Purpose: Radiation Therapy has a fundamental role in the treatment of cancer. Achieving Tumor Control Probability (TCP), while avoiding normal tissue complication is the goal of this treatment modality. The sensitivity of the thyroid gland to radiation increases the risk of developing secondary thyroid cancer and hypothyroidism.
Materials and Methods: The average dose to the thyroid from head and neck irradiation was measured using in vivo dosimetry (Thermolumincsence Dosimetry). The Radiotherapy technique was given using 6 MV x-rays from an Elekta compact linear accelerator and conformal technique delivered 1.8 to 2.0 Gy over 5 sequential days per week.
Results: The average absorbed dose to the thyroid from head and neck radiotherapy was 4.4% of the prescription dose and from whole brain radiotherapy was 0.7% of the prescription dose. Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) levels were determined in 30 patients before and after completion of radiation therapy. The average concentration of TSH increased from 0.88 +/- 0.55 (pre-radiotherapy) to 1.7 +/- 0.66 (post-radiotherapy), (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: Thyroid absorbed dose was less than the threshold dose for patients who received radiotherapy to the head and neck based on thyroid function tests

Published: January 2020

Background and Objectives: Recent reports indicate high prevalence of fungal infections due to non-albicans Candida spp.
which are present in various environments such as raw milk. The quality of milk for fungal normal flora was investigated in
this study.
Materials and Methods: A total of 262 milk samples were collected directly from milk collection tanks indesignated dairy
farms and cultured in SDA media. By further analysis of grown yeasts, 69 non-albicans Candida strains were identified.
Antifungal susceptibility of the isolated species, were evaluated against amphotericin B, itraconazole, fluconazole and flucytosine.
Fifty two non-albicans clinical samples isolated from human blood have been evaluated along.
Results: Antifungal susceptibility evaluation in non-albicans strains isolated from milk revealed Candida glabrata and
Candida tropicalis to be 100% sensitive to flucytosine and fluconazole. Candida krusei showed 94% and 80% sensitivity to
flucytosine and fluconazole respectively. Candida parapsilosis indicated 72.72% sensitivity to fluconazole.
Conclusion: Evaluation of non-albicans Candida species in raw milk and antifungal susceptibility patterns of these isolatescompare
with non-albicansisolates from human blood, may help physicians to choose an appropriate medication for diseases
needing long-term treatment, especially for diseases caused by local strains.
Prevalence of hepatitis E virus in thalassemia patients with hepatitis C in Tehran, Iran
Authors: Dalvand Najmeh , Dalvand Azadeh , Sharifi Zohreh , Hosseini Seyed Masoud
Published: January 2020

Background and Objectives: HEV infection is predominantly spread via the fecal-oral route; however, due to the presence
of HEV RNA in the serum of healthy blood donors, there is a possibility of the transmissibility of HEV infection through
blood. Multi-transfused thalassemia patients are one of the high risk groups for blood borne viruses. In this study, we evaluated
the prevalence of HEV antibodies and HEV-RNA in thalassemia patients with HCV infection.
Materials and Methods: 120 anti-HCV positive thalassemia patient serum samples from Tehran province during April-June
2019 were assessed for the presence of total anti-HEV antibodies using of HEV Ab ELISA kit. All serum samples were assayed
by Nested RT-PCR to detect HEV-RNA.
Results: The results of ELISA test showed that 2 out of 120 (1.67%) samples were positive for anti-HEV Ab. There was no
statistically significant difference between anti-HEV antibody prevalence rate and sex, age and other risk factors. None of
120 (0.00%) samples were positive for HEV-RNA by Nested RT-PCR.
Conclusion: Seroprevalence of HEV in our study group was 1.67% which is less than HEV seroprevalence rate in Iranian
general population. Therefore, it can be conclude that transmission of HEV infection via blood transfusion seems to be
uncommon in Iran and the fecal-oral route can be the predominant mode of transmission in Iran; however, more studies are
required to confirm this issue.
RETRACTED ARTICLE: The effect of a single-strain probiotic administration in the treatment of thermal burns patients
Authors: Perdanakusuma David S. , Hariani Lynda , Febriany Nasser Nur , Arian Datusanantyo Robertus
Published: January 2020

Background and Objectives: Between 2007 and 2011, the mortality rate for burns patients at Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia was 14.1% and 60% were suspected to be sepsis-related. Immunosuppression, gut barrier disruption, and intestinal hypomotility cause bacterial and bacterial product translocation. Probiotics improve the intestinal microbiome and eventually reduce bacterial translocation, and an increased secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) secretion post-administration of a multi-species probiotic has been observed. We aimed to determine whether a singlestrain probiotic administration could show strengthened intestinal immunity, through an increase in SIgA levels, as with multi-strain probiotics.
Materials and Methods: Sixteen burns patients from our hospital Burns Centre were randomized into three treatment groups, and the patients were administered either a placebo, a Lactobacillus reuteri protectis probiotic, or a Bifidobacterium infantis 35624 probiotic for 14 consecutive days. The SIgA levels were analyzed using ELISA pre- and post-treatment.
 Results: The post-treatment SIgAlevelsin the placebo, Lactobacillusreuteri protectis probiotic, and Bifidobacterium infantis 35624 probiotic groups were 222.56±74.22 mg/dL, 223.92±68.89 mg/dL, and 332.38±64.27 mg/dL, respectively. Decreased SIgA levels were observed in the placebo (7.19±15.87) and in the Lactobacillus reuteri protectis probiotic (1.9920±14.76) groups, whereas an increase was seen in the SIgA level in the Bifidobacterium infantis 35624 probiotic group (58.26±77.41).
Conclusion: The Bifidobacterium infantis 35624 single-strain probiotic is generally superior to Lactobacillus reuteri protectis in altering intestinal immunity; however, this finding was not statistically significant. A multi-strain probiotic supplement is recommended for burns patients.
Protective effects of ethanolic extract of Lemon Beebrush (Aloysia citrodora) leaf against hypoxia-induced lethality in mice
Authors: Hosseinzadeh Mohammad Hossein , Ebrahimzadeh Mohammad Ali
Published: January 2020

Lemon Beebrush, known as Lippia citroiodora and Aloysia citrodora is a known medicinal plant in Iran. Many biological activities have been reported from this plant. In spite of many works, nothing is known about protective effect of A. citrodora against hypoxia conditions. In this study, protective effects of A. citrodora leaf extract against hypoxia-induced lethality in mice were evaluated by three experimental models of hypoxia, asphyctic, haemic and circulatory. Its phenol and flavonoid contents and antioxidant activity were also evaluated. Statistically significant protective activities were established in some doses of extract in three models. Antihypoxic activity was especially pronounced in circulatory hypoxia where extract at 62.5 mg kg-1 prolonged the latency for death with respect to control group (p<0.01). The effect was dose dependent. At 250 mg kg-1, it prolonged the latency for death with the same activity of propranolol (20 mg kg-1), that used as positive control (p>0.05). Extract showed weak activity in haemic model. Only at the highest tested dose, 250 mg kg-1, it significantly prolonged latency for death with respect to control group (p<0.05). Extract at this dose showed the same activity of propranolol which used as positive control (p>0.05). In asphytic model, extract at the highest tested dose showed statistically significant activity respect to the control. At 250 mg kg-1, it significantly prolonged the latency for death (26.84 ± 4.11 vs. 19.45 ± 1.13 min, p = 0.0006). At 125 mg kg-1, it also prolonged survival time but this increase was not significantly different. Phenytoin that used as positive control kept mice alive for 29.60 ± 2.51 min (p<0.0001). Extract at 250 mg kg-1 showed the same activity of phenytoin (p>0.05). The total phenolic content was 342.9 ± 11.5 mg gallic acid equivalent/g of extract powder and flavonoid content was 90.2 ± 7.8 mg quercetin equivalent/g of extract powder.

Ruta graveolens, locally called sodab or sadab, is a known medicinal plant in north of Iran. The plant is a source for the production of secondary metabolites such as Glycosides, lignins, alkaloids, Coumarins, flavonoids and phenolic acids. In this work, the effect of salicylic acid on phenols and flavonoids contents of R. graveolens were investigated in the cell suspension culture. A significant enhancement in total phenolic and flavonoids contents were observed in salicylic acid treated samples. The results revealed that salicylic acid (10 mg/ml) showed as maximum as 3.14 fold enhancement in total flavonoid content (40.35 mg/g) and salicylic acid (20 mg quercetin equivalent/g of extract powder) showed as maximum as 18.33 fold improvement in total phenolic content (438.75 mg gallic acid equivalent/g of extract powder). Also in this study, salicylic acid (10 mg/ml) showed as maximum as 3.55 fold increase in DPPH radical-scavenging activity compared to control. These results suggest that the positive effect of salicylic acid on phenols and flavonoids content and DPPH scavenging activity in cell suspension culture. This effect was dose dependent.

POLÍTICAS PÚBLICAS PARA A EDUCAÇÃO INFANTIL NO BRASIL: dimensões da oferta, acesso e qualidade
Authors: Silva Petula Ramanauskas Santorum e , Lima Paulo Gomes
Published: January 2020

As políticas públicas para a educação infantil no Brasil, considerando as dimensões de oferta, acesso e qualidade apresentam-se lacunares quanto à garantia do direito da criança pequena à educação. Por meio de uma pesquisa exploratória, o objetivo deste estudo foi o de discutir tais “lacunas” por meio de sua identificação e discussão.  O estudo revela que acesso à vaga e a permanência da criança nessa etapa da Educação coloca como um dos desafios a diminuição das disparidades no acesso, sobretudo por razões socioeconômicas, visto que as crianças com famílias de menor ou nenhum poder aquisitivo são as que mais têm ficado à margem desse direito. O estudo revelou que os municípios precisam ampliar a oferta de atendimento, sem marginalizar a qualidade dos serviços ofertados, e não apenas oportunizando acesso, mas garantindo a permanência também em período integral.Palavras-chave: Educação infantil. Políticas públicas. Qualidade. Acesso. Oferta.PUBLIC POLICIES FOR EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION IN BRAZIL: OFFER, ACCESS AND QUALITY DIMENSIONSAbstractPublic policies for early childhood education in Brazil, considering the dimensions of supply, access and quality, are lacking in terms of guaranteeing the right of young children to education. Through exploratory research, the purpose of this study was to discuss such “gaps” through their identification and discussion. The study reveals that access to the vacancy and the permanence of the child in this stage of education poses as one of the challenges the reduction of the disparities in access, especially for socioeconomic reasons. It is known that children with families with less or no purchasing power have been left out of this right. The study revealed that the municipalities need to expand the offer of care, without marginalizing the quality of services offered, not only providing access, but also ensuring full-time permanence.Keywords: Early childhood education.

FAILURES IN BRAZILIAN PUBLIC SOCIAL PROGRAMS TO REDUCE EXTREME POVERTY: case study Porto Alegre for all
Authors: Levrini Gabriel R D
Published: January 2020

Poverty can be an economic circumstance, but it is also a political issue, since it directly influences several political decisions. The academic literature agrees that fundamental human needs have had, in fact, little development in their concept and scope within recent decades, although significantly changed happened in the Western way of accomplishing needs. We seek to understand different perspectives on possible different paths to a humanist articulation in the development of society. The goal of the research is through a humanistic approach based on Max Neef's theoretical precepts to understand the failure of the social program called Porto Alegre for All, in which less than 10% of the target population adopted the program. The research design had a qualitative phase with interviews with six target individuals, aiming to gain insights for the development of attributes and hierarchy of values for the use of the quantitative technique of joint analysis, made with a sample of 98 individuals. In our research the most important result was the attribute freedom, and the maternal pillar of the family is the great reference of these individuals.Keywords: Extreme Poverty. Freedom. Social programs. Fundamentals human needs.ResumoA pobreza pode ser uma circunstância econômica, mas também é uma questão política.
