MEN’S GENDER CAPITAL EXPERIENCES IN LATER LIFE
Authors: Gregorčič Marta , Cizelj Kaja
Published: April 2019

Over the last decade there have been substantial advances in understanding the gendered dimensions of ageing. Prior studies have mostly dealt with understanding the lives of older women while largely neglecting or omitting older men. The focus on women facing disadvantages in socio-economic and marital status has shifted to men’s post-work and health issues in the last few decades, and only recently to masculinities and gender capital in later life. Contemporary discussions on cultural and gender capital bring relevant recognition and somehow unintentionally reveal that gender can matter to the same extent or even more in old age than in childhood or adulthood. This article analyses the results of semi-structured in-depth interviews with 98 men aged 60 or more and other data collected in Slovenia as part of the Old Guys Erasmus+ project. The project results are in line with recent studies on gender capital and masculinities, and justify why older men should be seen, discussed and examined as individual agents who practice, perform and produce gender in later life too. They also explain why hegemonic masculinity is only one aspect of gendered life experiences and that different masculine realities stand alongside each other and are as necessary for men in later life as femininities are for women, particularly in contemporary societies where both aged men and women are seen and represented as de-gendered, un-gendered or even genderless.
Rocas de hormigón y agua en movimiento: la Forma de Grupo en la obra de Angela Danadjieva para Lawrence Halprin & Associates
Authors: Pérez Igualada Javier
Published: April 2019

El concepto de Forma de Grupo, propuesto en 1964 por Fumihiko Maki y Masato Othaka, puede aplicarse al campo del diseño urbano, como principio desde el que interpretar obras de arquitectura del paisaje. Examinaremos la validez de esta hipótesis utilizando como casos de estudio dos obras significativas del estudio Lawrence Halprin & Associates, diseñadas a finales de los años 60 por la arquitecta Angela Danadjieva: la Ira Keller Fountain (1968-70) del Auditorium Forecourt Park, perteneciente a la secuencia de espacios abiertos de Portland, y la Canyon Fountain del Freeway Park de Seattle (1969-76).
Sverre Fehn y la arquitectura primitiva de Marruecos
Authors: Rincón Borrego Iván Israel
Published: April 2019

Norwegian architect Sverre Fehn took a trip to Morocco in 1951 which is one of the most remarkable steps of his beginnings as an architect, but also one of the most unknown. Until now, nearing the tenth anniversary of his death in February 2009, research on the Nordic author has ignored the need to study the journey in depth. This has been treated on many occasions just as a confessed starting point in his career. This paper rebuilds, organizes and analyses the trip using the original notebooks that Sverre Fehn brought with him on his return, three and not one, as has always been claimed, which were left to the National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design in Norway. The researcher explores the traveller’s thoughts through the places and constructions encoded in his drawings. Following Jorn Utzon’s advice, Fehn recognized the inspiring dimension that primitive architecture had for the masters of the Modern Movement and, therefore, for their own modern cultural heritage.
El tiempo detenido en cuatro miradas

Published: April 2019

According to Lessing’s theory, time and space are the concept bases of aesthetics. Architecture belongs to the realm of space, following this theory. There is no unitary discourse that substantiates the presence and the representation of time in Architecture. Our approach in this paper is based on the idea that the attributes of time and its passage, understood in their deep sense, are nothing but an essential issue of Architectural Project. Thus, the construction of our discourse hinges on four gazes to four projects, as defined in the first of “Four Quarters” by T.S. Elliot, published in 1936. The outside wall of the experimental house of Muuratsalo represents the gaze to a previous ruin, confronted with the detained time by the white that covers everything. The fragment of the wall of Sankt Markus, by Björhagen, evokes the lost unity. The courtyard enclosure of the Värmlan Regional Museum is a look in two different times. Finally, the outside wall of the Särestö Museum explores the bond between Architecture and nature throughout time.
Gaze Control During Simulator Driving in Adolescents With and Without Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
Authors: Yuval-Greenberg Shlomit , Keren Anat , Hilo Rinat , Paz Adar , Ratzon Navah
Published: April 2019

Importance: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is associated with driving deficits. Visual standards for driving define minimum qualifications for safe driving, including acuity and field of vision, but they do not consider the ability to explore the environment efficiently by shifting the gaze, which is a critical element of safe driving.

Objective: To examine visual exploration during simulated driving in adolescents with and without ADHD.

Design: Adolescents with and without ADHD drove a driving simulator for approximately 10 min while their gaze was monitored. They then completed a battery of questionnaires.

Setting: University lab.

Participants: Participants with (n = 16) and without (n = 15) ADHD were included. Participants had a history of neurological disorders other than ADHD and normal or corrected-to-normal vision. Control participants reported not having a diagnosis of ADHD. Participants with ADHD had been previously diagnosed by a qualified professional.

Outcomes and Measures: We compared the following measures between ADHD and non-ADHD groups: dashboard dwell times, fixation variance, entropy, and fixation duration.

Results: Findings showed that participants with ADHD were more restricted in their patterns of exploration than control group participants. They spent considerably more time gazing at the dashboard and had longer periods of fixation with lower variability and randomness.

Conclusions and Relevance: The results support the hypothesis that adolescents with ADHD engage in less active exploration during simulated driving.

What This Article Adds: This study raises concerns regarding the driving competence of people with ADHD and opens up new directions for potential training programs that focus on exploratory gaze control.
Calibration of a multi-physics ensemble for estimating the uncertainty of a greenhouse gas atmospheric transport model
Authors: Díaz-Isaac Liza I. , Lauvaux Thomas , Bocquet Marc , Davis Kenneth J.
Published: April 2019

Abstract. Atmospheric inversions have been used to assess biosphere–atmosphere
CO2 surface exchanges at various scales, but variability among
inverse flux estimates remains significant, especially at continental scales.
Atmospheric transport errors are one of the main contributors to this
variability. To characterize transport errors and their spatiotemporal
structures, we present an objective method to generate a calibrated ensemble
adjusted with meteorological measurements collected across a region, here the
upper US Midwest in midsummer. Using multiple model configurations of the
Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, we show that a reduced number
of simulations (less than 10 members) reproduces the transport error
characteristics of a 45-member ensemble while minimizing the size of the
ensemble. The large ensemble of 45 members was constructed using different
physics parameterization (i.e., land surface models (LSMs), planetary
boundary layer (PBL) schemes, cumulus parameterizations and microphysics
parameterizations) and meteorological initial/boundary conditions. All the
different models were coupled to CO2 fluxes and lateral boundary
conditions from CarbonTracker to simulate CO2 mole fractions.
Observed meteorological variables critical to inverse flux estimates, PBL
wind speed, PBL wind direction and PBL height are used to calibrate our
ensemble over the region. Two optimization techniques (i.e., simulated
annealing and a genetic algorithm) are used for the selection of the optimal
ensemble using the flatness of the rank histograms as the main criterion. We
also choose model configurations that minimize the systematic errors (i.e.,
monthly biases) in the ensemble. We evaluate the impact of transport errors
on atmospheric CO2 mole fraction to represent up to 40 % of the
model–data mismatch (fraction of the total variance). We conclude that a
carefully chosen subset of the physics ensemble can represent the
uncertainties in the full ensemble, and that transport ensembles calibrated
with relevant meteorological variables provide a promising path forward for
improving the treatment of transport uncertainties in atmospheric inverse
flux estimates.
Seasonal characteristics of organic aerosol chemical composition and volatility in Stuttgart, Germany

Published: April 2019

Abstract. Chemical composition and volatility of organic aerosol (OA) particles were investigated during July–August 2017 and February–March 2018 in the city of Stuttgart, one of the most polluted cities in Germany. Total non-refractory particle mass was measured with a high-resolution time-of-flight aerosol mass spectrometer (HR-ToF-AMS; hereafter AMS). Aerosol particles were collected on filters and analyzed in the laboratory with a filter inlet for gases and aerosols coupled to a high-resolution time-of-flight chemical ionization mass spectrometer (FIGAERO-HR-ToF-CIMS; hereafter CIMS), yielding the molecular composition of oxygenated OA (OOA) compounds. While the average organic mass loadings are lower in the summer period (5.1 ± 3.2 µg m−3) than in the winter period (8.4 ± 5.6 µg m−3), we find relatively larger mass contributions of organics measured by AMS in summer (68.8 ± 13.4 %) compared to winter (34.8 ± 9.5 %). CIMS mass spectra show OOA compounds in summer have O : C ratios of 0.82 ± 0.02 and are more influenced by biogenic emissions, while OOA compounds in winter have O : C ratios of 0.89 ± 0.06 and are more influenced by biomass burning emissions. Volatility parametrization analysis shows that OOA in winter is less volatile with higher contributions of low volatile organic compounds (LVOC) and extremely low volatile organic compounds (ELVOC). We partially explain this by the higher contributions of compounds with shorter carbon chain lengths and higher number of oxygen atoms, i.e. higher O : C ratios in winter. Organic compounds desorbing from the particles deposited on the filter samples also exhibit a shift of signal to higher desorption temperatures (i.e. lower apparent volatility) in winter. This is consistent with the relatively higher O : C ratios in winter, but may also be related to higher particle viscosity due to the higher contributions of larger molecular-weight LVOC and ELVOC, interactions between different species and/or particles (particle matrix), and/or thermal decomposition of larger molecules. The results suggest that whereas lower temperature in winter may lead to increased partitioning of semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOC) into the particle phase, this does not result in a higher overall volatility of OOA in winter, and that the difference in sources and/or chemistry between the seasons plays a more important role. Our study provides insights into the seasonal variation of molecular composition and volatility of ambient OA particles, and into their potential sources.
How representative are FLUXNET measurements of surface fluxes during temperature extremes?

Published: April 2019

Abstract. In response to a warming climate, temperature
extremes are changing in many regions of the world. Therefore, understanding
how the fluxes of sensible heat, latent heat and net ecosystem exchange
respond and contribute to these changes is important. We examined 216 sites
from the open access Tier 1 FLUXNET2015 and free fair-use La Thuile data
sets, focussing only on observed (non-gap-filled) data periods. We examined
the availability of sensible heat, latent heat and net ecosystem exchange
observations coincident in time with measured temperature for all
temperatures, and separately for the upper and lower tail of the temperature
distribution, and expressed this availability as a measurement ratio. We
showed that the measurement ratios for both sensible and latent heat fluxes
are generally lower (0.79 and 0.73 respectively) than for temperature
measurements, and the measurement ratio of net ecosystem exchange
measurements are appreciably lower (0.42). However, sites do exist with a
high proportion of measured sensible and latent heat fluxes, mostly over the
United States, Europe and Australia. Few sites have a high proportion of
measured fluxes at the lower tail of the temperature distribution over very
cold regions (e.g. Alaska, Russia) or at the upper tail in many warm regions
(e.g. Central America and the majority of the Mediterranean region), and many
of the world's coldest and hottest regions are not represented in the freely
available FLUXNET data at all (e.g. India, the Gulf States, Greenland and
Antarctica). However, some sites do provide measured fluxes at extreme
temperatures, suggesting an opportunity for the FLUXNET community to share
strategies to increase measurement availability at the tails of the
temperature distribution. We also highlight a wide discrepancy between the
measurement ratios across FLUXNET sites that is not related to the actual
temperature or rainfall regimes at the site, which we cannot explain. Our
analysis provides guidance to help select eddy covariance sites for
researchers interested in understanding and/or modelling responses to
temperature extremes.
Quantifying energy use efficiency via entropy production: a case study from longleaf pine ecosystems
Authors: Wiesner Susanne , Staudhammer Christina L. , Stoy Paul C. , Boring Lindsay R. , Starr Gregory
Published: April 2019

Abstract. Ecosystems are open systems that exchange matter and energy with their
environment. They differ in their efficiency in doing so as a result of their
location on Earth, structure and disturbance, including anthropogenic legacy.
Entropy has been proposed to be an effective metric to describe these
differences as it relates energy use efficiencies of ecosystems to their
thermodynamic environment (i.e., temperature) but has rarely been studied to
understand how ecosystems with different disturbance legacies respond when
confronted with environmental variability. We studied three sites in a
longleaf pine ecosystem with varying levels of anthropogenic legacy and plant
functional diversity, all of which were exposed to extreme drought. We
quantified radiative (effrad), metabolic and overall entropy
changes – as well as changes in exported to imported entropy
(effflux) in response to drought disturbance and environmental
variability using 24 total years of eddy covariance data (8 years per site).
We show that structural and functional characteristics contribute to
differences in energy use efficiencies at the three study sites. Our results
demonstrate that ecosystem function during drought is modulated by decreased
absorbed solar energy and variation in the partitioning of energy and entropy
exports owing to differences in site enhanced vegetation index and/or soil
water content. Low effrad and metabolic entropy as well as slow
adjustment of effflux at the anthropogenically altered site
prolonged its recovery from drought by approximately 1 year. In contrast,
stands with greater plant functional diversity (i.e., the ones that included
both C3 and C4 species) adjusted their entropy exports when faced
with drought, which accelerated their recovery. Our study provides a path
forward for using entropy to determine ecosystem function across different
global ecosystems.
Quantifying uncertainties due to chemistry modelling – evaluation of tropospheric composition simulations in the CAMS model (cycle 43R1)

Abstract. We report on an evaluation of tropospheric ozone and its
precursor gases in three atmospheric chemistry versions as implemented in the
European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Integrated
Forecasting System (IFS), referred to as IFS(CB05BASCOE), IFS(MOZART) and
IFS(MOCAGE). While the model versions were forced with the same overall
meteorology, emissions, transport and deposition schemes, they vary largely
in their parameterisations describing atmospheric chemistry, including the
organics degradation, heterogeneous chemistry and photolysis, as well as
chemical solver. The model results from the three chemistry versions are
compared against a range of aircraft field campaigns, surface observations,
ozone-sondes and satellite observations, which provides quantification of the
overall model uncertainty driven by the chemistry parameterisations. We find
that they produce similar patterns and magnitudes for carbon monoxide (CO)
and ozone (O3), as well as a range of non-methane hydrocarbons
(NMHCs), with averaged differences for O3 (CO) within 10 %
(20 %) throughout the troposphere. Most of the divergence in the
magnitude of CO and NMHCs can be explained by differences in OH
concentrations, which can reach up to 50 %, particularly at high
latitudes. There are also comparatively large discrepancies between model
versions for NO2, SO2 and HNO3, which are
strongly influenced by secondary chemical production and loss. Other common
biases in CO and NMHCs are mainly attributed to uncertainties in their
emissions. This configuration of having various chemistry versions within IFS
provides a quantification of uncertainties induced by chemistry modelling in
the main CAMS global trace gas products beyond those that are constrained by
data assimilation.
The contributions of the leading modes of the North Pacific sea surface temperature variability to the Arctic sea ice depletion in recent decades
Authors: Yu Lejiang , Zhong Shiyuan , Vihma Timo
Published: April 2019

Abstract. Arctic sea ice decrease in extent in recent decades has been linked to sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the North Pacific Ocean. In this study, we assess the relative contributions of the two leading modes in North Pacific SST anomalies representing external forcing related to global warming and internal forcing related to Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) to the Arctic sea ice loss in boreal summer and autumn. For the 1979–2017 period, the time series of the global warming and PDO modes show significant positive and negative trends, respectively. The global warming mode accounts for 44.9 % and 50.1 % of the Arctic sea ice loss in boreal summer and autumn during this period, compared to the 20.0 % and 22.2 % from the PDO mode. There is also a seasonal difference in the response of atmospheric circulations to the two modes. The PDO mode excites a wavetrain from North Pacific to the Arctic; the wavetrain is not seen in the response of atmospheric circulation to the global warming mode. Both dynamic and thermodynamic forcings work in the relationship of atmospheric circulation and sea ice anomalies.
Blockchains, Real-time Accounting, and the Future of Credit Risk Modeling
Authors: Byström Hans
Published: April 2019

In this paper I discuss how blockchains potentially could affect the way credit risk is modeled, and how the improved trust and timing associated with blockchain-enabled real-time accounting could improve default prediction. To demonstrate the (quite substantial) effect the change would have on well-known credit risk measures, a simple case-study compares Z-scores and Merton distances to default computed using typical accounting data of today to the same risk measures computed under a hypothetical future blockchain regime.
Parental Perceptions of Grit: First Steps Towards Building Effective Character Education Programs
Authors: Song Cara , Maynes Nancy
Published: April 2019

In 2007, Angela Duckworth and her team of researchers coined the term “grit” to define a non-cognitive construct that entails perseverance and passion for long-term goals. In this exploratory study, descriptive survey methodology was used to determine what parents and their preadolescent students of a Northern Ontario public school (N = 8) knew and perceived about grit. Regardless of prior knowledge, participants shared perceptions of how they believed schooling should be and specific strategies perceived to support grit development. In addition, using variations of the 8-Item Grit Scale (the Grit-S), it was found that children considered themselves to be grittier than their parents perceived them to be. Collectively, these findings suggest the need for further study on perception research, on the assessment of non-cognitive traits, and on grit itself. Most importantly, these findings imply the premature incorporation of grit into school board character education policies based on inconsistent grit knowledge and interpretation.
Principios y agenda en la política exterior china. Un análisis constructivista de los discursos de Xi
Authors: Mosquera Mariano
Published: April 2019

Los supuestos de la teoría constructivista en relaciones internacionales permiten modelar los principios y agenda del discurso de la diplomacia con características chinas. Este modelo pone énfasis en una orientación anti-hegemónica, en el respeto por la particularidad de los países y en una agenda múltiple. Sin embargo, en los discursos del Presidente chino Xi, y en comparación a la política doméstica y partidaria, solo el principio de “desarrollo pacífico” se destaca por su alta frecuencia y relaciones conceptuales. Además, la agenda en política exterior muestra una marcada concentración en economía y seguridad.
La Constitución alemana de Weimar (1919) ¿una utopía en medio de la crisis? Un análisis histórico a sus aspectos interventores, modernizadores y derechos sociales
Authors: Restrepo Zapata Juan David
Published: April 2019

El presente artículo estudia, desde una mirada interdisciplinar, algunos postulados de la Constitución alemana de 1919, en sus aspectos interventores, modernizadores y de derechos sociales. Consecuentemente, este texto analiza en profundidad el entramado constitucional promulgado en la ciudad de Weimar, tras el fin de la Primera Guerra Mundial, que fue guiado, en mayor medida, por postulados socialdemócratas que veían en la revolución comunista un peligro latente que debía ser frenado. Algunos de los avances en materia interventora de la Constitución, permitían la vinculación directa del Estado en la regulación y control de aspectos económicos, políticos y sociales, entre otros. Frente a la modernización, se reformaron aspectos básicos de la tradición en cuanto a las instituciones, el poder, las relaciones y acciones políticas y democráticas, así como los vínculos Iglesia-Estado. Y, finalmente, respecto del campo social, se ampliaron y promulgaron algunos derechos laborales, sindicales y otros que contemplaban la seguridad social de los habitantes del país germano.
Conflicto palestino-israelí a la luz de la hidropolítica y la trasgresión del derecho al agua
Authors: Vásquez Méndez Marco , Ramírez Montañez Julio
Published: April 2019

El presente artículo pretende analizar, desde la perspectiva de la hidropolítica, el desarrollo del conflicto palestino-israelí. El trabajo se basa en el estudio de la influencia de la geopolítica del agua en la región israelí, que invadió el territorio Palestino y actualmente mantiene control en gran parte de la zona. El estudio muestra la importancia del análisis del agua como un factor geopolítico que genera disputas y guerras, y se proyecta a futuro —según expertos de la ONU y el Banco Mundial— como factor de seguridad hemisférica ante posibles guerras durante el siglo XXI . El análisis se basa principalmente en los estudios realizados por ONGs como Amnistía Internacional y Palestina Libre, mostrando la estrategia israelí para exterminar por completo la Nación palestina ante el control del agua en la zona, y la violación al tratado de Oslo, que le otorgaba participación sobre acuíferos de la zona a Palestina, pero que debido a su fracaso, los recursos son controlados por Israel, quien ha privatizado el agua mediante la empresa estatal israelí Mekorot.

Acuerdo de París: ¿Nuevos compromisos con el medio ambiente o nuevas oportunidades de negocio?
Authors: Di Pietro Simone
Published: April 2019

En noviembre 2015 tuvo lugar en París la COP21, último hito de una serie de negociaciones climáticas que desde la creación de la UNFCC tienen el objetivo de limitar el calentamiento global y reducir las emisiones antropogénicas de gases de efecto invernadero en el sistema terrestre. Como resultado de la reunión, las “partes” de la conferencia, o sea los países, lograron un acuerdo que debería entrar en vigor en 2020, coincidiendo con el término del Protocolo de Kyoto. El presente artículo pretende poner en evidencia el carácter una vez más insuficiente de los acuerdos logrados en relación con sus probabilidades de alcanzar los resultados esperados, en continuación con la falta de éxito de los acuerdos precedentes. Se quiere resaltar la necesidad de decisiones drásticas de ruptura con el pasado, como único camino capaz hacia un desarrollo sostenible. Por este motivo, se realiza una pequeña reseña histórica de la violencia asociada al capitalismo en sus actos colonizadores y explotadores de recursos y se pasa sucesivamente a analizar las propuestas filosóficas de varios autores para reorganizar las sociedades a partir de otros paradigmas, encontrando obstáculos y ventajas a la realización de tales procesos.

Published: April 2019

This study examines the effect of nutritional status on the gross and fine motor skills development in early childhood. The data were selected randomly using simple random sampling at the Posyandu in East Praya sub-district, Central Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. The samples were collected 127 children aged 24 to 36 months and their parents as respondents. The regression results showed that nutritional status had positive and significant effect on gross and fine motor skills development of children (adjusted R2 41.8%). The relationship nutritional status with gross and fine motor skills has the correlation value, 0.650 and moderate relationship level. Increasing the nutritional status greatly helps develop gross and fine motor skills development in children during their golden age.

Published: April 2019

INTRODUCTION: Midwifery documentation is a proof of recording and reporting possessed by midwives in carrying out records in documenting care provided.

MATERIAL & METHODS: The research method used was the comparative study with the comparative descriptive design. The total subjects of 30 mothers in labor were chosen using the purposive sampling technique. The subjects were divided into two groups: 15 of the mothers used the conventional midwifery documentation and 15 of them used the WEB-based. The data were analyzed using the univariate analysis in order to look at the median value, and the bivariate analysis with Mann-Whitney test.

RESULTS: The study results indicated the the highest frequency was found in the WEB-based partograph, namely he filling speed was 26 (86.7%), the highest frequency of partograph filling truth was that of the WEB-based partograph = 25 (83.3%), while the highest Relevance of the data frequency was found in the WEB-based partograph with the data Relevance = 27 (90%). The result of the statistical test had the p value of 0.000, 0.000, and 0.000 (< α = 0.05) meaning there was a difference of the WEB-based midwifery documentation compared to the conventional midwifery documentation.

CONCLUSION: Thus it can be concluded that web-based midwifery documentation is more effective than conventional midwifery documentation. There are differences in the aspects of ease, speed, security and relevance of data to recording labor history data so that it needs to be applied in documenting midwifery care.

Published: April 2019

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is one of the most confusing disorders for which not only no exact cause has been identified, but also no definitive cure has been found yet. Autism is a disorder that is usually observed on the child at an early age, affecting various developmental aspects. Its development is abnormal. It shows an imbalance in its social interaction, characterized by repetition of certain behavioral patterns and challenges in verbal and nonverbal communication with others. Over the last few decades, its prevalence showed a dramatic rise; an observation that encouraged many researchers across the globe to try to explore all its aspects from etiology to diagnosis and intervention. Because of the difficulties in teaching children with autism, the families in Jordan encounter many challenges and stresses. This paper discusses the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD); Symptoms, Causes, Diagnosis, treatment, types and the counseling needs of the families in Jordan.

Introduction: Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is the third most common interstitial lung disease after idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and nonspecific interstitial pneumonia. Pathogenesis of HP is related to repeated exposure to inhaled environmental antigens that sensitise the susceptible, genetically predisposed persons. The aim of the present retrospective study was to summarise the diagnostic methods used in consecutive patients with HP, recognised in a single pulmonary unit, between 2005 and 2015, and to compare them with current diagnostic criteria. Material and methods: 135 patients, 68 males, 67 females, median age 53 years (18–75 years), entered the study. Chest CT features characteristic of HP were defined as: mosaic attenuation of lung parenchyma, air trapping and/or ill-defined centrilobular nodules. Lymphocytosis in BAL was defined as ≥30%. Results: Median time from first symptoms to diagnosis was 12 months. The exposure to one or more allergens was found in 94% of patients, chest CT features characteristic of HP have been reported in 87%, BAL lymphocytosis—in 86%. According to recent diagnostic criteria—in 54% of patients, clinical diagnosis of HP was confident, in 16%—probable, in 26%—possible and in 4%—unlikely. The confirmation of HP with lung biopsy has been obtained in 36% of non-confident cases (16% of the study group). Conclusions: HP diagnosis was confirmed according to current diagnostic criteria in 70% of patients diagnosed between 2005 and 2015. Contradictions to lung biopsy have been the main reason for inability to confirm HP in non-confident cases.
Cell-Free Tumour DNA as a Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarker in Non-small Cell Lung Carcinoma
Authors: Łochowska Barbara , Nowak Dariusz , Białasiewicz Piotr
Published: April 2019

More than 1 million people dies worldwide due to lung cancer which is the first most incident cancer in males and the third in females. Only early diagnosis makes possible to achieve long-lasting remission or even cure the disease. Unfortunately, no tumour marker to achieve this goal has been identified, yet. One of putative lung cancer markers is free circulating tumor DNA. Its concentration seems to be related to cancer burden. Moreover, it can be subjected to mutational status analysis allowing for introduction of targeted treatment. This led to the idea of liquid biopsy which can substitute for a standard biopsy not feasible in certain clinical circumstances. Assessment of cell free tumour DNA can also inform about progression/recurrence of cancer and may have a prognostic value. Therefore, the aim of this article is to review on free circulating DNA as a potential marker in lung cancer.
Smoking Status in Relation to Obstructive Sleep Apnea Severity (OSA) And Cardiovascular Comorbidity in Patients with Newly Diagnosed OSA

Published: April 2019

Introduction: the relationship between smoking and sleep disturbance has been well documented. Smoking is a common risk factor for both obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and cardiovascular diseases. The study aimed to: (1) evaluate the incidence of newly diagnosed OSA in patients presenting with symptoms suggestive of a sleep disorder, (2) assess the relation between smoking status and OSA severity; and (3) compare the prevalence of cardiovascular comorbidities in ever- and never smokers with newly diagnosed OSA. Material and methods: a retrospective analysis of 5353 patients suspected of OSA was performed. OSA was diagnosed on the basis of polysomnography. The influence of smoking status on indices of OSA severity was evaluated and the incidence of self–reported cardiovascular diseases and diabetes mellitus type 2 was analyzed in relation to smoking history. Results: OSA was diagnosed in 3613 patients (67.5%); of these, 21.6% were ever-smokers. Smokers with OSA had a higher apnea-hypopnea index [AHI; 31 (18.4–53.29) vs. 29 (18.3–47.7), p = 0.03], lower mean oxygenation during sleep [92 (90–93) vs. 92 (91–94), p < 0.01] and a higher daytime sleepiness (Epworth Sleepiness Scale score 11.7 ± 5.5 vs. 11.0 ± 5.5, p < 0.001). The most frequent comorbidity was hypertension, followed by obesity, diabetes mellitus type 2 and coronary artery disease, with a statistically higher incidence of hypertension in non-smokers (59.2 vs. 64.7%, p = 0.005). Conclusions: smoking is related with OSA severity and increased daytime sleepiness. Our study confirmed the elevated frequency of cardiovascular comorbidities in OSA patients in general but did not show an increased incidence of these comorbidities in smokers.
Der Schutz der Schiedsvereinbarung
Authors: Colberg Lukas
Published: April 2019

Schiedsvereinbarungen sollen den Parteien ein effizientes Verfahren vor einem kompetenten Spruchkörper sichern, das zu einer weltweit vollstreckbaren Entscheidung führt. Die Rechtspraxis zeigt jedoch, dass nicht selten eine der beiden Parteien versucht, dieses Verfahren durch Klageerhebung bei staatlichen Gerichten zu sabotieren. Der Autor untersucht eingehend, ob die andere Partei in Reaktion hierauf Schadensersatz wegen der Verletzung der Pflicht zur schiedsgerichtlichen Streiterledigung verlangen kann. Er nähert sich dem Thema aus rechtsvergleichender Perspektive und entwirft sodann ein Leistungsstörungsrecht des Schiedsvertrags. Zudem beantwortet er die Frage, ob und inwieweit Schadensersatzansprüche mit dem europäischen Zivilverfahrensrecht vereinbar sind. An die Kautelarpraxis adressiert sind die abschließenden Vorschläge, wie Schiedsvereinbarungen durch vertraglich vereinbarte Schadensersatzansprüche besser geschützt werden können.
Two Undergraduate Students' Reinvention of the Multiplication Principle
Authors: Lockwood Elise , Purdy Branwen
Published: April 2019

The multiplication principle (MP) is a fundamental aspect of combinatorial enumeration, serving as an effective tool for solving counting problems and underlying many key combinatorial formulas. In this study, the authors used guided reinvention to investigate 2 undergraduate students' reasoning about the MP, and they sought to answer the following research questions: How do students come to understand and make sense of the MP? Specifically, while a pair of students reinvented a statement of the MP, how did they attend to and reason about key mathematical features of the MP? The students participated in a paired 8-session teaching experiment during which they progressed from a nascent to a sophisticated statement of the MP. Two key mathematical features emerged for the students through this process, including independence and distinct composite outcomes, and we discuss ways in which these ideas informed the students' reinvention of the statement. In addition, we present potential implications and directions for future research.

A ciclagem de resíduos de origem animal pelo processo de compostagem e sua transformação em insumos para produção vegetal além de minimizarem os impactos ambientais, podem ser uma importante fonte de renda ao produtor. Além disso, a compostagem desses resíduos produz um insumo agrícola com elevado potencial na produção de hortaliças e com possibilidade de associação com organismos de controle biológico, possibilitando a produção de um substrato ecologicamente correto, rico em nutrientes e protetor da saúde das plantas. Nesse sentido, o objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a sobrevivência do fungo Trichoderma spp. durante o processo de vermicompostagem, as alterações físico/químicas ocasionadas no substrato e o crescimento e desenvolvimento de plantas de alface cultivadas. Foram avaliados, como substratos base, resíduos da criação de ovinos; cavalos e coelhos, com ou sem a adição de Trichoderma spp. Em todos os tratamentos foram adicionadas minhocas da espécie Eisenia fetida. Os tratamentos foram arranjados em esquema fatorial 3x2 e o delineamento experimental foi o inteiramente casualizado, com 4 repetições O fungo Trichoderma spp. sobrevive durante o processo de vermicompostagem dos diferentes resíduos. A utilização de Trichoderma spp. não teve efeito nos teores de fósforo, magnésio e matéria orgânica, reduziu os valores de cálcio, elevou os teores de potássio para o substrato a base de coelho, aumentou a densidade seca do substrato base de resíduos de coelho e reduziu do substrato base de resíduos de cavalos. O substrato que proporcionou o melhor crescimento e desenvolvimento de plantas de alface foi o de resíduos de criação de cavalos, sendo favorecido pela presença de Trichoderma spp. no segundo ano de cultivo.

Published: April 2019

Introdução: Entre pacientes diagnosticados e em tratamento para osteoporose, acredita-se que há desconhecimento geral sobre a doença. Entre os pacientes em faixa etária de risco, não diagnosticados, crê-se que o desconhecimento é maior. Objetivo: Avaliar as considerações de mulheres sobre o conceito da osteoporose e sua prevenção. Métodos: Estudo qualitativo, descritivo, realizado no Hospital das Clínicas da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Belo Horizonte, com 10 pacientes portadores de osteoporose, e 10 pacientes sem. A tabulação dos dados ocorreu por meio da utilização de três figuras metodológicas: ideia central, expressões chave e o discurso sujeito coletivo. O estudo foi aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética e Pesquisa com Seres Humanos. Resultados: Dentre as pacientes com diagnóstico, destacou-se como ideias centrais a vulnerabilidade às fraturas e os conceitos de apresentação da doença como osteopenia e osteoporose. No grupo sem diagnóstico, 40% desconhecia a doença. Na prevenção, observou-se maior conhecimento no grupo portador da doença, sendo as ideias centrais destacadas: os exercícios físicos, alimentação rica em cálcio e vitamina D, além da exposição solar. Conclusão: Evidenciou-se um conhecimento limitado sobre a osteoporose e suas formas de prevenção, sobretudo no grupo sem diagnóstico, porém em faixa etária de risco. Assim, conclui-se que, tratando-se de uma doença de elevada prevalência, de altos custos orçamentários para a saúde pública, e com riscos significativos uma vez não diagnosticados e não tratada, medidas resolutivas de maior esclarecimento sobre a doença devem ser praticadas em todas as esferas da saúde pública.

Published: April 2019

RESUMOEste estudo objetiva analisar as tendências das pesquisas na área da enfermagem que abordem a temática do cuidado familiar de idosos dependentes por doenças crônicas no domicílio. Trata-se de uma revisão narrativa da literatura, a partir da questão norteadora “Quais as tendências das produções da enfermagem brasileira acerca do cuidado familiar de idosos dependentes por doenças crônicas no domicílio?”. A busca foi realizada no mês de agosto de 2017 no Banco de Teses e Dissertações da Associação Brasileira de Enfermagem, acessando os catálogos anuais disponíveis, dos anos de 1998 a 2014. Utilizou-se como estratégias de busca os índices por assunto “cuidadores”, “assistência domiciliar” e “pacientes domiciliares”. O número total de estudos encontrados foi 233 resumos, que após aplicação dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão, restaram 22 que compuseram o “corpus” deste estudo. A exploração dos dados foi realizada qualitativamente pela análise de conteúdo proposta por Bardin. Destes, 14 são dissertações e oito teses, distribuídas em dez universidades brasileiras, com destaque para região Sudeste. A maioria dos estudos utilizou a abordagem qualitativa, tendo destaque no ano de 2010 com maior concentração de defesas. Conclui-se que o foco principal dos estudos foi o cuidador familiar, desvelando aspectos relacionados à sua caracterização, experiências, vivências, qualidade de vida, sobrecarga, sentido do ser cuidador e suporte social. A compreensão dos aspectos envolvidos no cuidado familiar ao idoso dependente contribui para subsidiar as ações das equipes de saúde, principalmente no preparo/acompanhamento da família que virá ser cuidadora, identificando suas principais dificuldades, necessidades e condições apresentadas.
NEGATIVE REPRESENTATIONS OF MASCULINITY IN NOLLYWOOD: A READING OF IKECHUWKU ONYEKA’S MR AND MRS
Authors: Ebekue Emmanuel Onyeka
Published: April 2019

Masculinity is a social construct that defines man‟s social relation within the gender hierarchy in society. Over the years, gender has narrowly been screwed to depict feminism which in itself struggles towards negotiating social power for the feminine gender. However, in doing this, feminism has subtly achieved an ideological imaging of the male as brutish, savage, demonic, power obsessed and most of all domineering. This has gradually become a mainstream narrative through which masculinity is understood. Thus the average man is seen as potentially violent, power obsessed, chauvinistic and domineering. The implication is that masculinity in itself is a social havoc. This forms the core of this research. The researcher in this work disputes this negative construct of the masculine model as a social menace. The researcher argued that while the afore mentioned negative traits exist, that they are individual social disorder which in itself does not represent masculinity as a generic social construct. The researcher used the qualitative research method with particular resort to the case study approach for his data collection and analysis. The research is hinged on the „Social role theory of Sex‟ .
BEHIND THE IDEOLOGY SHIFT: COMPARISON BETWEEN OLD AND NEW INDONESIAN TRANSLATIONS OF DORAEMON MANGA SERIES
Authors: Wijaya Andika , Salim Dias R.
Published: April 2019

Different versions of translations of the same source text can be published and republished by the same publisher over the span of years. The differences between the two translated versions can reflect the changing attitude and translation ideology of the commission. This paper examines and discusses the differences between two Indonesian translations of Doraemon manga series commissioned and published by Elex Media Komputindo in the early 1990s and the early 2010s. The study investigates whether there is any translation ideology shift over a two decades-period and whether the ideology adopted in the two translations implies any sociocultural or sociohistorical information. To that purpose, the study focuses on comparing the translations of cultural-specific items (CSIs) in both versions. The findings show that in some cases, the two translations employ different strategies to translate CSIs, with the older translations (OT) tend to adopt domestication ideology to some extent, and the newer translations (NT) almost consistently adopt foreignization ideology. While the shift to foreignization in the NT may reflect the shift of attitude and perspective of Indonesians towards Japanese culture post-World War II era, the domestication adopted by the OT can give a small glimpse of Indonesian sociocultural conditions in the early 1990s.
