Published: April 2020

Narada Cup is one of the superior programs of the Narada Senior High School Student Council aimed at facilitating the development of student interests and talents and as a promotional event for the school. Considering the two big goals to be achieved and the plan to organize the next Narada Cup program, a comprehensive program evaluation process is needed to understand, explore, and improve the process of organizing it. This qualitative evaluation study used the CIPP evaluation model (context, input, process, product) with purposive sampling. The data collection was conducted through interview sessions, FGD (focus group discussion), observation, and documentation studies. This research results: (1) Context evaluation shows that formulating the vision and mission of the program will clarify the projections of long-term program objectives; (2) Input evaluation shows that the procurement of the manuals of implementation containing SOP (standard operational procedure) is needed; (3) Process evaluation concludes that the recording of the problem-solving process was used as an evaluation reference for all parties, so that the future implementation of the program would be better; (4) Product evaluations conclude that Narada Cup program is recommended to be continued annually and continuously evaluated and refined for the development and improvement of the quality of this program.AbstrakPiala Narada adalah salah satu program unggulan OSIS SMA Narada yang bertujuan memfasilitasi pengembangan minat dan bakat siswa dan sebagai acara promosi untuk sekolah.

Исследование английской фразеологии с помощью подходов корпусной лингвистики
Authors: Комарова Ирина Александровна , Коган Марина Самуиловна
Published: April 2020

Статья посвящена перспективам использования подходов корпусной лингвистики в формировании лексико-фразеологических навыков обучающихся. Т.к. в рамках учебного процесса разработка дидактических материалов с использованием корпусных данных осуществляется с учетом рекомендованных для изучения дисциплин учебных пособий, была предпринята попытка верифицировать фразеологические единицы, включенные в пособия по практике речевого общения и перевода, в корпусе современного американского английского языка (COCA). Приведено обоснование выбора корпуса СОСА для проведения подобного исследования. При верификации 535 отобранных фразеологизмов в корпусе были обнаружены 262 единицы в своем нормативном виде и 71 в трансформированном. В работе представлен список самых частотных фразеологизмов, список фразеологизмов, не обнаруженных в корпусе, но рекомендуемых к изучению в пособии по практике перевода, а также и наиболее типичные примеры трансформаций фразеологических единиц, предлагаемых к изучению в пособии по практике речевого общения. Сравнение полученных результатов поиска трансформированных фразеологических единиц с имеющимися в литературе данными позволяет сделать вывод о целесообразности продолжения изучения варьирования фразеологизмов/ обязательных для освоения студентами лингвистических направлений.
Маркеры метакоммуникации в разных социальных ролях: на материале прагматического аннотирования корпусных данных
Authors: Попова Татьяна Ивановна
Published: April 2020

Прагматическое аннотирование материала корпуса «Один речевой день» позволяет видеть, как говорящий, выстраивая свою речь с помощью определенных маркеров, эксплицирует свои коммуникативные намерения, отношение к адресату, обращается к общей с собеседниками перцептивной базе. Некоторые единицы буквально отражают структурную сторону речи, делают доступным для понимания процесс протекания коммуникации – маркируется начало и конец реплики, поиск единиц, опущение (игнорирование) деталей, подчеркивание важного, затруднения разного рода и призыв продолжить коммуникацию. В докладе рассматривается употребление маркеров метакоммуникации в зависимости от социальной роли говорящего. Корпус «Один речевой день», который имеет обширную метатекстовую разметку, что позволяет анализировать материал с учетом социолингвистических данных, информацию о коммуникативной ситуации. Социальная роль говорящего является одним из малоизученных параметров в корпусе. Анализ подвыборки материала, в котором говорящие выступают в социальных ролях, противопоставленных по принципу симметричности/асимметричности отношений, позволил обнаружить некоторую зависимость используемых для построения дискурса единиц метакоммуникации (контактоустанавливающих) от роли говорящего.

Introduction In the international context, Mexico is a country with low drug use level, in turn, it shows an increase when considering the most recent epidemiologic trends. In order to maintain an updated analysis of drug use in general population and to identify the most at risk groups, the National Survey of Addictions (ENA) was held in 2011. Objetive The aim of the study was to determine the lifetime prevalence for any drug and any illegal drug use at a national and regional level, in population aged 12 to 65 years. Also, to acknowledge drug consumption trends since 2002 in Mexico. Material and methods ENA 2011 survey is a randomized, multistage probabilistic study. It is representative at a national level and also for eight regions of the country, including rural and urban population. The sample was 3 849 adolescents and 12 400 adults who answered a computerized version of a standardized questionnaire containing sections of tobacco, alcohol, medical drugs (opiates, tranquilizers, sedatives, amphetamines) and illegal drugs (marijuana, cocaine, crack, hallucinogens, inhalants, heroin and methamphetamines). All participants read and signed an informed consent. Emphasis was made on the voluntary and confidential use of the information. Results The national lifetime prevalence of any drug grew between 2002 and 2011, increasing significantly from 5.0% to 7.8%, while consumption of any illegal drugs increased from 4.1% to 7.2%. By sex, in men, any drug use increased from 8.6% to 13%. Illegal drugs increased from 8.0% to 12.5%. In women, use of any drug increased from 2.1% to 3.0% and use of any illegal drug increased from 1.0% to 2.3%. Marijuana is the first drug of choice (6.5%) followed by cocaine (3.6%). Considering regions, any drug consumption grew significantly in the Western (5.5% to 10.3%), Northeast (5.5% to 10.3%), North Central (7.5% to 9.2%) and South Central (4.2% to 7.5%). As for illegal drugs, there is also a statistically significant increase in these regions, however, growth was proportionally bigger in South Central region, going from 3.5% to 6.8%. Conclusions Results from this study indicate a growth in the consumption of illegal drugs from 2002 to 2011, especially in marijuana. It also shows that men from 18 to 34 years are the most affected by this consumption, while increases in adolescent men have been low. Moreover, the study shows that those who have received some type of prevention, showed a smaller consumption prevalence, indicating that further work is needed in this area with young people to consolidate activities of health promotion and drug use prevention, working with infant population is needed, including a systematic evaluation of the actions mentioned above. In the international context, data from this study confirms that Mexico continues reporting low levels of drug consumption.

Poetas e martinis: uma leitura de The Barfly Ought to Sing de Anne Sexton
Authors: Rodrigues Julia Cortes
Published: April 2020

O suicídio da poeta Sylvia Plath abalou o universo literário em 1963. As associações entre poesia e autossacrifício na obra de poetas vinculados ao rótulo “confessional” foram cimentadas, mitificou-se a morte de Plath, e surgiram debates éticos que jamais cessaram. No calor desse momento, ainda em 1966, Anne Sexton, que conhecera Sylvia Plath brevemente anos antes, publica um texto memorialístico no periódico Tri-Quarterly. Essas memórias de Sexton, registradas sob o título “The Barfly Ought to Sing” [“O Bebum Deve Cantar”], são o tema deste artigo: heterogêneo em sua feitura – já que alterna recordações de Plath, leitura de sua poesia e dois poemas inéditos de Sexton –, o texto tampouco é homogêneo no sentido de sua homenagem, pois não procura ocultar uma tensão competitiva que perpassa o elo afetivo. Acredita-se que o texto possua uma dimensão crítica que foi frequentemente subestimada. Através da escrita das memórias, Sexton parece ter buscado formular uma visão da poesia confessional: inclui ela própria e Plath enquanto referências dessa poética e nomeia, a seu modo, alguns de seus elementos fundamentais.
Entre subjetivo e citadino
Authors: Denubila Rodrigo Valverde
Published: April 2020

Este estudo consiste em uma leitura crítica de “Anoitecer”, poema de Carlos Drummond de Andrade, publicado em A rosa do povo. Objetiva-se evidenciar como a organização formal reflete o conteúdo. Sublinha-se, pois, como os aspectos expressivos formais estão comprometidos com os aspectos expressivos existenciais. No itinerário de leitura proposto, evidenciam-se questões próprias à modernidade e ao espaço citadino. Porém, essas são transcendidas quando aparecem outras ligadas à temporalidade do ser. Isso faz com que se identifique dicotômica articulação semântica entre subjetivo e citado, entre facticidade existencial e eternidade.
Entre el gesto y la performance
Authors: Pérez Jesús Oneiver Arellano
Published: April 2020

En este artículo pretendo analizar cómo La escribana del viento (2013) se configura a partir de un conjunto de elementos que apuntan a modificar la perspectiva estética que se tiene del pasado y en consecuencia la visión que se tiene de la historia. La novela se interpretará bajo la idea de “narrativa performática”. Este análisis estará organizado a partir de tres ejes específicos: primero, la historia contada desde y por los sujetos minorizados; segundo, el cuerpo como agente configurador de los acontecimientos narrados; y, por último, la recurrencia a la imagen y al gesto para posicionar el discurso histórico en la esfera de las emociones. El montaje en la novela muestra una insistencia en la imagen, el texto se teatraliza, los discursos de los personajes se convierten en gestos y las múltiples posibilidades interpretativas no sólo ponen en diálogo el presente con el pasado, sino que dan cuenta de una pulsiónpor lo contemporáneo.
Caetano Veloso e a viravolta da cultura: dispositivos de leitura de Silviano Santiago
Authors: Do Carmo Said Roberto Alexandre
Published: April 2020

Pretendo analisar, neste artigo, o dispositivo de leitura engendrado por Silviano Santiago em sua investigação da viravolta cultural que reposiciona os estudos literários e as relações entre arte e política no final da década de 1970 no Brasil. Tomo como corpus três ensaios de Santiago, elaborados em diferentes momentos de sua trajetória intelectual, a partir dos quais busco identificar procedimentos críticos comuns que caracterizam um modo singular de aproximação do objeto, a um só tempo difuso e agudo, cuja recorrência revela uma obsessão do crítico pelas inflexões e pelos descentramentos na ordem da cultura. A ênfase recai na figura de Caetano Veloso e de sua atitude antropofágica cujo trabalho, em confluência com o de Santiago, conjuga elementos de diferentes registros culturais, de modo a revelar as ambiguidades e os paradoxos instituídos entre o campo estético e o político, entre a arte e a cultura, no processo de modernização conservadora da sociedade brasileira.
Familia y políticas públicas
Authors: Pinillos Gumán Mariana Andrea
Published: April 2020

La familia es un factor determinante en la construcción de las políticas públicas, las cuales deben ser formuladas en atención a los intereses y necesidades del grupo familiar. Al respecto, es importante considerar los múltiples e importantes roles que tienen sus miembros, tanto en la formulación como en la concreción de las políticas públicas. Desde este referente, el presente artículo tiene como objetivo comprender la concepción de familia asumida en las políticas públicas del estado colombiano, específicamente al analizar seis políticas públicas, un programa de Estado y el acuerdo de paz, en los cuales la familia hace presencia. El componente metodológico se fundamenta en la sistematización de experiencias, a través del análisis de contenido para establecer relación entre la sintaxis, la semántica y la pragmática, de forma tal que se devele el tratamiento que a la concepción de familia se hace en el ámbito de la política pública. Entre los principales resultados destacan como en la familia recae la responsabilidad de participar activamente en el cambio político y social, a la luz de los condicionantes sociohistóricos. Se concluye en la necesidad de fortalecer la interacción de la familia con el contexto cultural en su lógica de adaptación y mecanismos relaciones con los demás subsistemas sociales.

Legal Status and Development Trends of Credit Unions in Polish Law and its Compliance with the WOCCU Standards and the International Cooperative Principles
Authors: Bierecki Dominik
Published: April 2020

The article presents the outline of credit unions’ history in Poland, the credit unions’ legal status in Polish law and the credit union’s legal status as the European Cooperative Society (SCE). Conclusions driven from this analysis are compared with the World Council of Credit Unions (WOCCU) standards and the contents of the International Cooperative Principles. Also, the article discusses legal environment, government attitude and development trends of credit unions’ in Poland. In conclusion, the de lege ferenda postulates regarding credit unions’ regulation in Poland are presented. Credit unions in Poland conduct not for profit business activity only with their members with reservation to mediating in specific contracts on financial market which can be also conducted with nonmembers. Credit unions activity is subject to supervision of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (FSA). Therefore credit unions regulation is characterized by duality of legal regime of private and administrative law. However, in certain fields of credit unions activity the FSA’s supervision, performed under administrative legal regime, raises justified doubts in the light of the principle of cooperative autonomy as the FSA by law has the authority to impose specific orders and prohibitions on credit unions.Received: 06 September 2019Accepted: 21 February 2020Published online: 01 April 2020
Exploring the Relationship between Emergent Sociocognitive Roles, Collaborative Problem- Solving Skills and Outcomes: A Group Communication Analysis
Authors: Dowell Nia , Lin Yiwen , Godfrey Andrew , Brooks Christopher
Published: April 2020

Collaborative problem-solving (CPS) has become an essential component of today’s knowledge-based, innovation- centred economy and society. As such, communication and CPS are now considered critical 21st century skills and incorporated into educational practice, policy, and research. Despite general agreement that these are important skills, there is less agreement on how to capture sociocognitive processes automatically during team interactions to gain a better understanding of their relationship with CPS outcomes. The availability of naturally occurring educational discourse data within online CPS platforms presents a golden opportunity to advance understanding about online learner sociocognitive roles and ecologies. In this paper, we explore the relationship between emergent sociocognitive roles, collaborative problem-solving skills, and outcomes. Group Communication Analysis (GCA) — a computational linguistic framework for analyzing the sequential interactions of online team communication — was applied to a large CPS dataset in the domain of science (participant N = 967; team N = 480). The ETS Collaborative Science Assessment Prototype (ECSAP) was used to measure learners’ CPS skills, and CPS outcomes. Cluster analyses and linear mixed-effects modelling were used to detect learner roles, and assess the relationship between those roles on CPS skills and outcomes. Implications for future research and practice are discussed regarding sociocognitive roles and collaborative problem-solving skills.
The Oven of Hakhinai: the Yerushalmi’s accounts of the banning of R. Eliezer
Authors: Simon-Shoshan Moshe
Published: April 2020

This article presents an analysis of the Talmud Yerushalmi’s version of the story of ‘The Oven of Akhnai’,
Mo’ed Qatan
3:1 (81c–d). The first part is a philological analysis of the Yerushalmi account which traces the development of ‘The Oven of Akhnai’ traditions from the Mishnah and Tosefta, through the Yerushalmi and Bavli. The second part is a literary reading of the Yerushalmi text which demonstrates that the Yerushalmi is far more sympathetic to Rabbi Eliezer and his world-view than is the Bavli. I also consider the significance of the place of this passage in a sugya about the laws of excommunication and the distinctive image of the legendary study house at Yavne, which is markedly different from that found in other rabbinic narratives about the sages of that generation.

Authors: Kristanti Febriana , Ainy Chusnal , Shoffa Shoffan , Khabibah Siti , Amin Siti Maghfirotun
Published: April 2020

Students’ reasoning ability in understanding the concepts in the Transformation Geometry course is still low. One of the causes is that there are no teaching materials, namely Student Worksheets that provide opportunities for students to be actively involved in creative learning processes; as a result, their reasoning skills are not well crafted. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a Student Worksheet that can strengthen students’ creative techniques and reasoning. The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of Student Worksheet products in terms of validity, practicality, and effectiveness. This research is an ADDIE development research whose stages comprise analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The instruments used in this study were validation sheets, student response questionnaires, learning outcomes, and learning implementation observation sheets. The results of this study were Creative Problem Solving (CPS) based Student Worksheet products in Geometry Transformation courses, and Student Worksheet eligibility, declared feasible in terms of (a) Validity; the worksheet validation results were in the very good category (4.36) (b) Practicality; the results of student response questionnaires to Student Worksheets were in a good category (31.16), and (c) effectiveness; the results of the test of student learning outcomes were in a good category (72%).
Reconstruction of rockfall activity through dendrogeomorphology and a scar-counting approach
Authors: Žabota Barbara , Trappmann Daniel , Levanič Tom , Kobal Milan
Published: April 2020

Trees represent an important archive that can be used to reconstruct the spatial and temporal patterns of rockfall events. Rockfall impacts can be recorded in the form of anomalies in tree rings and impact scars on the tree stem. In this paper we demonstrate the use of an approach based on counting scars for reconstructing the frequency and spatial pattern of past rockfalls. The approach was applied by counting the visible scars on the stem surface of 52 European beech trees (Fagus sylvatica L.) in the area of the Trenta Valley, Slovenia. The average number of impacts per trees was 7, and the impacts were mostly classified as old, indicating reduced rockfall activity in recent years. The average recurrence interval was 31.8 years, which was reduced by 1.2 years by the application of the conditional impact probability. The spatial pattern of rockfall impacts shows that rockfall activity is higher in the middle part of the studied slope.
Morphological traits of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) in international provenance tests in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Authors: Memišević Hodžić Mirzeta , Bejtić Semir , Vejzagić Selma , Ballian Dalibor
Published: April 2020

Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) is one of the most important tree species in European forests. This study aims to determine whether there is inter-provenance variability in researched morphological traits in two international provenance tests of Scots pine in Bosnia and Herzegovina. We measured height, root collar diameter, and latest shoot length and counted branches on the latest branch whorl of Scots pine plants in two provenance tests. The provenance tests are located in Kupres and Žepče, in different climatic, edaphic, and orographic conditions. Kupres and Žepče contain 15 and 14 provenances, respectively, eleven of which are mutual to both sites. Descriptive statistics and analysis of variance showed differences among provenances in all investigated morphological traits. These differences were attributable to provenance test, provenance, and interaction between provenance test and provenance. The average values were higher in Žepče for all provenances and all studied traits. The Austria A1, Austria A2, Austria A3, and Poland P1 provenances showed the best growth in both tests, while the Italy I1 provenance showed good growth in Žepče but not in Kupres.
Igualdad, diferencia y teoría feminista = Equality, Difference and Feminist Theory
Authors: Stamile Natalina
Published: April 2020

Resumen: Uno de los principales propósitos de este trabajo es analizar la compatibilidad entre la igualdad y la diferencia, dentro de la teoría feminista. En particular me interesa discutir el argumento desarrollado por algunas teóricas y feministas quienes afirman que la igualdad es compatible con las diferencias en el ámbito jurídico. Se acentuará el análisis a partir de la relación entre las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC) y la condición de la mujer, buscando verificar si, a raíz de esta relación, ésta última sufre mudanzas considerables. En esta perspectiva, la introducción de la diferencia parece ser indispensable para alcanzar la igualdad y hacerla efectiva. Finalmente, se intentará defender que la contraposición teórica entre el feminismo de la igualdad y el feminismo de la diferencia, podría superarse proponiendo una forma de lectura que intenta conciliar las dos alternativas.Palabras clave: Principio de igualdad, Estado de Derecho, diferencia, teoría feminista, TICs, conocimiento y desarrollo local.Abstract: One of the main aims of this study is to analyze the compatibility between equality and difference in feminist theory. In particular, I am interested in discussing the argument of some theorists and feminists who affirm that equality and difference are compatible in the legal field. My analysis will focus on the relationship between Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and the condition of women, verifying if, as a result of this relation, women suffer considerable changes. In this context, the introduction of difference seems to be indispensable to achieve equality and its effectiveness. I conclude that the juxtaposition of feminism of equality and feminism of difference could be overcome, and a form of lecture that tries to conciliate the two alternatives may be proposed.Keywords: Equality principle, Rule of law, difference, feminist theory, ITC.
El concepto de guerra justa. Especial atención a su doctrina en la China contemporánea = The concept of just war. Special attention to its conception in contemporary China
Authors: García Vázquez Borja
Published: April 2020

Resumen: Los razonamientos que llevan a justificar las guerras basan sus causas en motivaciones éticas análogas en diferentes religiones que exceden el marco occidental. Con el auge y difusión del marxismo, la ideología se convirtió en un elemento de cohesión social, ocupando posiciones anteriormente limitadas a la teología, permitiendo la delimitación de la guerra justa desde esta posición, la cual, asumida por la República Popular China, ha dado origen a una variante oriental en la que se conjuga la tradición de Sun Tzu con el legado marxista-leninista y su desarrollo posterior por Mao y sus sucesores. Palabras clave: Guerra justa, guerra y marxismo, guerra y leninismo, guerra y maoísmo. Abstract: The reasonings that lead to justify wars have certain origins in similar ethical motivations in different religions that exceed the Western framework. With the rise and spread of Marxism, ideology was changed into an element of social cohesion, occupying positions previously limited to theology, the delimitation of the just war from this position, which, assumed by the People’s Republic of China, has given rise to an oriental variant in which the tradition of Sun Tzu is combined, with the Marxist-Leninist legacy and its subsequent development by Mao and his successors. Keywords: Justwar, war and marxism, war and leninism, war and maoism.

El principal objetivo es tratar de determinar si las sentencias piloto han resultado ser un instrumento útil a la hora de mejorar la eficacia de la prohibición de la tortura y otros tratos inhumanos o degradantes, contenida en el artículo 3 del CEDH, en el ámbito carcelario.Palabras clave: Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos, sentencia piloto, sobrepoblación carcelaria, prisiones, condiciones de reclusión, prohibición de la tortura, artículo 3 del Convenio Europeo de Derechos Humanos.Abstract: The prohibition of torture and inhuman and degrading treatment is absolute and is present in all human rights treaties and conventions. However, in some European prisons there is a systematic violation of article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The European Court of Human Rights uses the pilot judgment procedure to impose on the States the adoption of general measures to put an end to a systemic or structural problem. In this article I will explain the pilot judgment procedure and I will analyze the pilot judgments on prison conditions. The main objective is to determine whether pilot sentences are a useful instrument to improve the effectiveness of article 3 of the ECHR.Keywords: European Court of Human Rights, pilot judgment, prison overcrowding, prisons, prison conditions, prohibition of torture, article 3 of the European Convention of Human Rights

Introduction: Nutrition has been underrepresented in the curriculum of many medical schools and therefore physicians do not feel adequately prepared to provide dietary counselling. The aim of the present study is to determine the impact of a Nutrition and Metabolism curricular unit on nutrition attitudes, knowledge and confidence on future clinical practice of medical students.Material and Methods: All the students enrolled in the curricular unit (2017/2018) were invited to complete a questionnaire assessing their nutritional knowledge and eating habits at the beginning and at the end of the semester (n = 310).Results: Initially, students reported good eating habits and nutrition knowledge. These aspects improved at the end of the study. Moreover, students reported that they felt more confident to do dietary counselling after intervention.Discussion: Most medical students answered affirmatively to all questions related with good habits or eating behaviours, and the acquisition of knowledge had an impact in specific attitudes. After the Nutrition and Metabolism classes the students felt able to provide dietary counselling in different clinical settings, but none of the students felt extremely confident about their competencies for dietary counselling. This can be due to the fact that the students involved were in the first year of the integrated master’s degree in medicine, which is a preclinical year, and thus distant from the medical reality and from contact with patients.Conclusion: Nutrition education can have a positive impact on attitudes and eating behaviours, knowledge and in the perception of competencies for dietary counselling.

Different surveillance studies (2005-2015) on the presence of ESBL-producing E. coli in the northwest Spain revealed that eae-positive isolates of serotype O153:H10 were periodically detected in meat (of beef, chicken and pork), and also implicated in human diarrhea. This study aimed: i) to characterize the degree of relatedness between human and animal isolates; ii) to know if this was a geographically restricted or disseminated genetic lineage. Thirty-two isolates were conventionally typified as O153:H10-A-ST10 fimH54, fimAvMT78, traT and eae-beta1, being 21 of those CTX-M-32 or SHV-12 producers. PFGE comparison of their macrorestriction profiles showed high similarity (>85%). The plasmidome analysis revealed a stable combination of IncF (F2:A-:B-), IncI1 (STunknown) and IncX1 plasmid types, together with non-conjugative Col-like. Besides, the core genome investigation based on the cgMLST scheme from Enterobase, proved close relatedness between isolates of human and animal origin. Our results demonstrate that a hybrid MDR aEPEC/ExPEC of clonal group O153:H10-A-ST10 (CH11-54) would be playing a successful role in spreading ESBLs (CTX-M-32) in our region within different hosts, including wildlife. It would be potentially implicated in human diarrhea via food (meat) transmission. Importantly, we proved genomic evidence of a related hybrid aEPEC/ExPEC in other countries.

In this study, a motion control problem for the vessels towed by tugboats or towing ships on the sea is considered. The towed vessels including barge ships are need to have assistance of tugboats. Combining two vessels, some work purposes in the sea or harbor area can be completed. In this study, the authors give newly developed mathematical model and control system strategy. Especially, the system model fully presenting the physical characteristics of two vessels are derived. For controlling the system effectively, it is considered that the towed vessel has no power propulsion system but the rudder is activated to improve the maneuverability. Considering the strong nonlinearities included in the vessel dynamics, the modelled system is presented by nonlinear system without linearization of nonlinear parameters. Thus, the control system for the towed vessel is designed based on the nonlinear control scheme. Exactly, the back-stepping control method is applied to its motion control. Also, the PID control method is applied for comparing with the proposed control strategy.

The first case of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) was reported in Wuhan, China in December 2019. Since then, COVID-19 has quickly spread out to all provinces in China and over 150 countries or territories in the world. With the first level response to public health emergencies (FLRPHE) launched over the country, the outbreak of COVID-19 in China is achieving under control in China. We develop a mathematical model based on epidemiology of COVID-19, incorporating the isolation of healthy people, confirmed cases and close contacts. We calculate the basic reproduction numbers 2.5 in China (excluding Hubei province) and 2.9 in Hubei province with the initial time on January 30 which show the severe infectivity of COVID-19, and verify that the current isolation method effectively contains the transmission of COVID-19. Under the isolation of healthy people, confirmed cases and close contacts, we find a noteworthy phenomenon that is the potential second epidemic of COVID-19, and estimate the peak time and value and the cumulative number of cases. Simulations show that the isolation of close contacts tracked measure can efficiently contain the transmission of the potential second epidemic of COVID-19. With isolation of all susceptible people or all infected people or both, there is no potential second epidemic of COVID-19. Furthermore, resumption of work and study can increase the transmission risk of the potential second epidemic of COVID-19.

The current study sets out to develop an empirical line method (ELM) radiometric calibration framework for reducing atmospheric contributions in UAS imagery and for producing scaled remote sensing reflectance imagery. Using a MicaSense RedEdge camera flown on a custom-built octocopter, the research reported herein finds that atmospheric contributions have an important impact on UAS imagery. Data collected over the Lower Pearl River Estuary in Mississippi during five week-long missions covering a wide range of environmental conditions was used to develop and test a simplified ELM radiometric calibration framework designed specifically for the reduction of atmospheric contributions to UAS imagery in studies with limited site accessibility or data acquisition time constraints. The framework was effective in reducing atmospheric and other external contributions to UAS imagery. Unique to the proposed radiometric calibration framework is the radiance to reflectance conversion conducted externally from the calibration equations which allows for the normalization of illumination independent from the time of UAS image acquisition and from the time of calibration equations development. This paper presents the simplified ELM radiometric calibration framework that can be used as a time-effective calibration technique to reduce errors in the UAS imagery.

Mutation in the ethionamide (ETH) activating enzyme, EthA, is the main factor determining resistance to this drug, used to treat TB patients infected with MDR and XDR Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates. Many mutations in EthA of ETH resistant (ETH-R) isolates have been described but their roles in resistance remain uncharacterized, partly because structural studies on the enzyme are lacking. Thus, we took a two-tier approach to evaluate two mutations (Y50C and T453I) found in ETH-R clinical isolates. First, we used a combination of comparative modeling, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics to build an EthA model in complex with ETH that has hallmark features of structurally characterized homologs. Second, we used free energy computational calculations for the reliable prediction of relative free energies between the wild type and mutant enzymes. The ΔΔG values for Y50C and T453I mutant enzymes in complex with FADH2-NADP-ETH were 3.34 (+/−0.55) and 8.11 (+/−0.51) kcal/mol, respectively, compared to the wild type complex. The positive ΔΔG values indicate that the wild type complex is more stable than the mutants, with the T453I complex being the least stable. These are the first results shedding light on the molecular basis of ETH resistance, namely reduced complex stability of mutant EthA.

Introduction: Increased oxidative stress, including elevated homocysteine (Hcy) plasma levels, and lowered levels of antioxidants participate in the pathophysiology and progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Paraoxonase (PON)1 activity and folic acid are antioxidants which play a role in Hcy metabolism. However, there are no data whether, in CKD, treatment with folic acid improves glomerular filtration rate (GFR) through effects on PON1 activity and Hcy concentrations. Methods: In the current study, we determined PON1 genotypes and activity, Hcy and estimated GFR (eGFR) both before and after treatment with folic acid (5 mg/d) versus no treatment during three consecutive months in 113 outpatients with CKD classified into stages 4, 3b and 3a. Results: PON1 CMPAase and AREase activities were significantly lower in patients allocated to CKD stage 4 as compared with stages 3b and 3a. Treatment with folic acid significantly improved eGFR and increased levels of CMPAase and AREase in patients allocated to classes 4 and 3b, but not 3a. The improvement of eGFR was associated with increased CMPAase and AREase activities, while the latter were associated with increased levels of folic acid. Treatment with folic acid significantly reduced plasma Hcy levels and the Hcy/PON1 activity ratio. The effects of folic acid increasing PON1 activities were not mediated by changes in Hcy. Discussion: Treatment of CKD patients in early/intermediate stages of CKD patients improves oxidative stress by rebalancing the prooxidant (Hcy) / antioxidant (PON1 activities) ratio. Treatment with folic acid significantly improves eGFR and these effects are mediated via increased PON1 activities. Treatment with folic acid in phase G3b and G4 may reduce renal disease progression by enhancing antioxidant defenses.
