Diakonia in the New Testament and a vision for a biblically based ministry plan
Authors: Breed Gert
Published: October 2019

When a local congregation holds the Bible as its authoritative source document in a post-Christian milieu and embarks on developing a ministry plan, it should base its plan on the Bible as the revelation of God. One aspect of a ministry plan of a local congregation is the service ministries (διακονία). In this article, I attempt to answer the question what previous exegetical studies by the author and other researchers of the diakon-words in the New Testament could contribute towards the development of a biblically based ministry plan for a local church. The principles for service ministries identified from the results of the previous exegetical work, are presented in an overview and integrated into a plan for service ministries. The conclusion is that the exegetical studies of the διάκον-word group in the New Testament have provided valuable insight into the service ministries and therefore contribute to an overall ministry plan of a congregation.
Intralesional Bleomycin in Lymphangioma Circumscriptum of Tongue
Authors: Sharma Reena Kumari , Gupta Mudita
Published: October 2019

Lymphangioma circumscriptum is a congenital lymphatic malformation of superficial lymphatics. It may present at any age but is usually noted at birth or appears during childhood. The usual sites of presentation are head and neck; oral cavity is rarely involved. Very few cases of lymphangioma circumscriptum of the tongue are reported. The diagnosis is confirmed by histopathology. The usual treatment for such cases includes local excision or sclerotherapy. We present a case of symptomatic lymphangioma circumscriptum of the tongue in a 15-year-old boy who was treated by debulking of lesion, followed by intralesional injections of bleomycin.
Algebraic Values of Entire Functions with Extremal Growth Orders: An Extension of a Theorem of Boxall and Jones
Authors: Chalebgwa Taboka Prince
Published: October 2019

Given an entire function $f$ of finite order $\unicode[STIX]{x1D70C}$ and positive lower order $\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}$, Boxall and Jones proved a bound of the form $C(\log H)^{\unicode[STIX]{x1D702}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D706},\unicode[STIX]{x1D70C})}$ for the density of algebraic points of bounded degree and height at most $H$ on the restrictions to compact sets of the graph of $f$. The constant $C$ and exponent $\unicode[STIX]{x1D702}$ are effectively computable from certain data associated with the function. In this followup note, using different measures of the growth of entire functions, we obtain similar bounds for other classes of functions to which the original theorem does not apply.
The Economic Burden of Malaria: Revisiting the Evidence
Authors: Sarma Nayantara , Patouillard Edith , Cibulskis Richard E. , Arcand Jean-Louis
Published: October 2019

A portion of the economics literature has long debated about the relative importance of historical, institutional, geographical, and health determinants of economic growth. In 2001, Gallup and Sachs quantified the association between malaria and the level and growth of per capita income over the period 1965–1995 in a cross-country regression framework. We took a contemporary look at Gallup and Sachs’ seminal work in the context of significant progress in malaria control achieved globally since 2000. Focusing on the period 2000–2017, we used the latest data available on malaria case incidence and other determinants of economic growth, as well as macro-econometric methods that are now the professional norm. In our preferred specification using a fixed-effects model, a 10% decrease in malaria incidence was associated with an increase in income per capita of nearly 0.3% on average and a 0.11 percentage point faster per capita growth per annum. Greater average income gains were expected among higher burden countries and those with lower income. Growth of industries with the same level of labor intensity was found to be significantly slower in countries with higher malaria incidence. To analyze the causal impact of malaria on economic outcomes, we used malaria treatment failure and pyrethroid-only insecticide resistance as exogeneous instruments in two-stage least squares estimations. Despite several methodological challenges, as expected in these types of analyses, our findings confirm the intrinsic link between malaria and economic growth and underscore the importance of malaria control in the agenda for sustainable development.
Dengue Virus Infection in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients: A Case Series and Literature Review
Authors: Rosso Fernando , Sanz Ana María , Parra-Lara Luis Gabriel , Moncada Pablo Andrés , Vélez Juan Diego , Caicedo Luis Armando
Published: October 2019

Dengue fever is the most prevalent arbovirus infection among humans, and tropical regions are hyperendemic for this infection. The number of solid organ transplant recipients is continuously increasing, and there are few data regarding the clinical course and outcomes of dengue infection among this population. We report on a retrospective case series of solid organ transplant recipients with dengue virus infection from 2001 to 2018 at Fundación Valle del Lili in Cali, Colombia. A total of 20 patients were included. The median age was 50.5 years (interquartile range [IQR] = 31–63.5 years) and 65% were female. Regarding the clinical course, 75% of patients had at least one warning sign, 45% were managed in the intensive care unit, and 30% had severe dengue. The median of time from transplant and dengue infection was 27.6 months (IQR = 3.82–59.12 months), and three patients had the disease in the first month after the transplant. All patients were discharged, and none of them had graft rejection. Dengue is an endemic disease in our region and represents a threat among solid organ transplantation recipients. All patients had a full recovery after the infection, suggesting that timely and effective management of patients and the access to high-complexity services could prevent fatal cases.
Recommended Practice for Determining Material Properties of Li-Battery Separator
Authors:   Battery Materials Testing Committee
Published: October 2019

This SAE RP provides a set of test methods and practices for the characterization of the properties of Li-battery separator.

The test methods in this RP have been grouped into one of three categories:

1

Separator material parameters: Minimum set of separator properties to be measured.

2

Chemistry/customer-specific parameters: Properties that are dependent on the application, customer needs and/or requirements, manufacturing process, etc. This RP will include the current best practice methodologies for these tests, with an understanding that the best practice methodologies are evolving as more information is learned.

3

R&D parameters: Properties that are dependent on the application, customer needs and/or requirements, manufacturing process, etc. The methodologies in this third section are under development and have not yet achieved broad application.

It is not within the scope of this document to establish criteria for the test results, as this is usually established between the materials supplier and seperator manufacturer and the user. This is especially true where this document specifies a range of target values, or an open testing parameter. In these cases, the sample supplier and recipient must agree to specific numbers for the test parameters.
Abordagem cultural da organização do conhecimento na ciência da informação brasileira
Authors: Manhique Ilídio Lobato Ernesto , Casarin Helen de Castro Silva
Published: October 2019

A organização do conhecimento é uma subárea da Ciência Informação que lida com a representação e classificação da informação para que ela se torne acessível para os usuários. Como campo de estudos incorpora as várias abordagens teóricas e epistemológicas que configuram a Ciência da Informação. Partindo dessas premissas, esta pesquisa tem como objetivo analisar a produção científica da Ciência da Informação brasileira sobre a abordagem cultural da organização do conhecimento. Do ponto de vista metodológico, este estudo é natureza exploratória e combina as abordagens qualitativa e quantitativa. A coleta de dados foi feita por meio de um levantamento bibliográfico na Base de Dados Referenciais de Artigos de Periódicos em Ciência da Informação (BRAPCI) e na Base de Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações (BDTD). Os resultados da pesquisa indicam que a integração desta abordagem de pesquisa no domínio da organização do conhecimento ainda é incipiente, considerando o número reduzido registros recuperados em ambas as bases de dados. Como conclusão indica-se que é necessário que os estudos da organização do conhecimento incorporem esta abordagem, porque tem implicações positivas para a criação de esquemas contextualizados de classificação. Consideramos que esquemas que não atentam para esse aspecto têm o potencial de promover a exclusão e marginalização de grupos que se encontram fora do contexto mainstream.
The Zero Emissions Commitment Model Intercomparison Project (ZECMIP) contribution to C4MIP: quantifying committed climate changes following zero carbon emissions

Abstract. The amount of additional future temperature change following a complete
cessation of CO2 emissions is a measure of the unrealized warming to
which we are committed due to CO2 already emitted to the atmosphere.
This “zero emissions commitment” (ZEC) is also an important quantity when
estimating the remaining carbon budget – a limit on the total amount of
CO2 emissions consistent with limiting global mean temperature at a
particular level. In the recent IPCC Special Report on Global Warming of
1.5 ∘C, the carbon budget framework used to calculate the
remaining carbon budget for 1.5 ∘C included the assumption that
the ZEC due to CO2 emissions is negligible and close to zero. Previous
research has shown significant uncertainty even in the sign of the ZEC. To
close this knowledge gap, we propose the Zero Emissions Commitment Model
Intercomparison Project (ZECMIP), which will quantify the amount of
unrealized temperature change that occurs after CO2 emissions cease and
investigate the geophysical drivers behind this climate response.
Quantitative information on ZEC is a key gap in our knowledge, and one that
will not be addressed by currently planned CMIP6 simulations, yet it is
crucial for verifying whether carbon budgets need to be adjusted to account
for any unrealized temperature change resulting from past CO2
emissions. We request only one top-priority simulation from comprehensive
general circulation Earth system models (ESMs) and Earth system models of
intermediate complexity (EMICs) – a branch from the 1 % CO2 run with
CO2 emissions set to zero at the point of 1000 PgC of total CO2
emissions in the simulation – with the possibility for additional
simulations, if resources allow. ZECMIP is part of CMIP6, under joint
sponsorship by C4MIP and CDRMIP, with associated experiment names to enable
data submissions to the Earth System Grid Federation. All data will be published
and made freely available.

Recent results for the logarithmic Keller-Segel-Fisher/KPP System
Authors: Zeng Yanni , Zhao Kun
Published: October 2019

We consider a Keller-Segel type chemotaxis model with logarithmic sensitivity and logistic growth. It is a 2 by 2 system describing the interaction of cells and a chemical signal. We study Cauchy problem with finite initial data, i.e., without the commonly used smallness assumption on  initial perturbations around a constant ground state. We survey a sequence of recent results by the authors on  the existence of global-in-time solution,  long-time behavior, vanishing coefficient limit and optimal time decay rates of the solution.
Performance evolution of a fractal dimension estimated by an escape time algorithm
Authors: Mohammed Arkan
Published: October 2019

The non-geometric and irregular objects are considered as complex patterns. The geometric complexity is measured as space lling capacity by a factor known as a fractal dimension. Dierent techniques are proposed to nd this complexity measure according to the properties of the pattern. This paper is aimed to introduce a method for counting the dimension of the lled Julia fractal set generated by the Escape Time Algorithm using the method of spreading the points inside the proposed window. The resulted dimension is called Escape Time dimension. A new method to compute a correlation dimension of the Filled Julia fractal set is also proposed based on the Grassberger-Procaccia algorithm by computing the correlation function. A log-log graph of the correlation function versus the distances between every pair of points in the lled Julia fractal set is an approximation of the correlation dimension. Finally, a comparison between these two fractal dimensions of the led Julia fractal set which is generated by the Escape Time Algorithm is presented to show the efficiency of the proposed method.
A variation on strongly lacunary delta ward continuity in 2-normed spaces
Authors: Ersan Sibel
Published: October 2019

A sequence $(x_{k})$ of points in a subset E of a 2-normed space $X$ is called strongly lacunary $\delta$-quasi-Cauchy, or $N_\theta$-$\delta$-quasi-Cauchy if $(\Delta x_k)$ is $N_\theta$-convergent to 0, that is $\lim_{r\rightarrow\infty}\frac{1}{h_r}\sum_{k\in I_r}||\Delta^2 x_k, z||=0$ for every fixed $z\in X$. A function defined on a subset $E$ of $X$ is called strongly lacunary $\delta$-ward continuous if it preserves  $N_{\theta}$-$\delta$-quasi-Cauchy sequences, i.e. $(f(x_{k}))$ is an $N_{\theta}$-$\delta$-quasi-Cauchy sequence whenever $(x_{k})$ is. In this study we obtain some theorems related to strongly lacunary $\delta$-quasi-Cauchy sequences.

The Cultural Otherness of Custance as a Foreign Woman in the Man of Law's Tale
Authors: Hamaguchi Keiko
Published: October 2019

Comparing Chaucer's representation of Custance in the Man of Law's Tale with Trevet's and Gower's, this article explores how Chaucer highlights the cultural otherness of Custance as a foreign woman in England. Drawing upon historical documents, it also examines how Custance as the cultural Other can be associated with real, historical foreign women in late-fourteenth-century England, and how aggression and xenophobia toward Custance reflect Chaucer's own fourteenth-century English society, where people also were xenophobic toward foreign women. Chaucer shows sympathy both with them and with Custance, and implicitly critiques the problematic attitude of his contemporaries toward foreign women in England.
“Us from visible and invisible foon / Defende” (Troilus and Criseyde, V, 1866–67): A Previously Unrecognized Liturgical Echo
Authors: Goldstein R. James
Published: October 2019

Chaucer's borrowing from Dante's Paradiso 14 for the closing prayer in the final stanza of Troilus and Criseyde has been well known since the nineteenth century, but previous scholars have overlooked how the phrase “visible and invisible foon” (V, 1866) echoes a Latin formula in the liturgy. In Middle English sources, the collocation of “visible” and “invisible” with words for “enemy” was relatively rare. Drawing on David Lawton's theory of voice and “public interiorities,” the article considers how the religious turn at the end of the poem is marked by the translation into the vernacular of a Latin phrase that appears in liturgical sources and is related to language that commonly appears in sermons, biblical commentaries, and royal ordinations, including the coronation of Richard II in 1377.
Regional Modernisms in Finland and Sweden: From Rural Death Traps to the Utopian Countryside
Authors: Pöllänen Iida
Published: October 2019

Despite the spatial expansion of modernist studies during the past few decades, scholarship still tends to privilege urban spaces while excluding rural regions from mappings of modernist literature. This article focuses on the countryside and suggests that a study of rural representations through feminist regionalism can provide a transnational frame of analysis for modernist studies, particularly since the phenomenon of modernity affected the countryside all over the world with authors from various locations responding to similar developments and crises. By taking as point of departure the rural regions of Sweden and Finland, this article asks how the countryside became imagined in Nordic modernist texts during the first half of the twentieth century. With a focus on Eyvind Johnson's Stad i mörker (1927) and Hagar Olsson's Träsnidaren och döden (1940), the article analyzes how representations of the countryside are used in these texts to critically consider questions of modernity, nationality, and community. Depending on the intersecting identities of its inhabitants, the countryside ranges from a future utopia of communal life to a backward threat to the developments of modernity.

Dialogando con los mayores espirituales, las palabras del Tul y con el sentir de la abuela
Authors: Chocué Guasaquillo Ana Alicia , Ramos Pacho Abelardo
Published: October 2019

La presente investigación describe la importancia de aprender a comunicarse con el tul para el pueblo nasa, también identifica los elementos que logran semejar su valor, como es el anaco o falda que cubre el cuerpo de la mujer, porque así mismo el tul cubre circularmente y protege la casa. También es conocido como la raíz que hace que el pensamiento nasa permanezca vivo; el tul es nuestra abuela sabia, cariñosa que nos protege, enseña, reprende, consiente, abriga, nos defiende. Es la casa grande, en el que permanecen los ksxa’w de la visión, los de las cuatro puertas de entrada a la huerta, ellos son los encargados de defender ante cualquier peligro además de alertar cualquier situación que se vaya a presentar en la familia y comunidad. Para llegar a estos conceptos fueron importantes las voces de los mayores entrevistados, quienes a partir de sus experiencias de vida con el tul, aportaron en el proceso de aprendizaje. De este proceso se concluye que el tul es el encuentro con las enseñanzas de los conocimientos de nuestros antepasados, también en él se vive la relación de interculturalidad entre las plantas, los ksxa’w (los seres espirituales de todo ser viviente) como personas enseñándonos la unidad en la diversidad, para finalmente demostrar que hay otras formas de comunicarse y que logran ser tan importantes que es necesario transmitirlas en los espacios donde se construye conocimiento en comunicación intercultural.
Las Manifestaciones Comunicacionales Propias del Pueblo Kichwa Purwa de la Parroquia Cacha, Cantón Riobamba, Provincia de Chimborazo, República del Ecuador
Authors: Yantalema Samaniego Jaime Javier , Chimbo Mayancela Maribel Elizabeth
Published: October 2019

Este artículo, trata sobre las manifestaciones comunicacionales propias del pueblo kichwa purwa de la parroquia Cacha de la provincia de Chimborazo, república del Ecuador, sistematizado mediante un diálogo profundo de saberes y haceres en lengua materna, en sus propios escenarios de vida cotidiana de cinco comunidades, reforzada por la etnografía y el rastreo etimológico de las variaciones lingüísticas kichwa encontradas en el uso social de Cacha. El estudio evidencia que en la vida comunitaria se reproducen distintos tipos de manifestaciones y signos denominados sensoriales, subdivididos en visuales, auditivos sonoros, lingüísticos fonológicos, audiovisuales, olfativos, gustativos, dactilares y corporales, cuyas acepciones son procesadas por los órganos de los sentidos. El otro grupo de signos comunicacionales identificados son los oníricos, intuitivos, predictivos y espirituales, llamados extrasensoriales. Otro hallazgo importante, es el significado y significación del poncho coqueado, que según los cachenses se debe a las imágenes de chakanas que tiene en sus extremos; del rastreo etimológico, se determina que su nombre responde a las abstracciones geométricas de los hampatu o ranas llamadoras de la lluvia, que poblaban las partes húmedas de Cacha. Con esta última técnica investigativa se resignificó la manera de entender el propio nombre de Cacha, el de montañas, plantas, animales y sus onomatopeyas, entre otros. Consecuentemente se comprueba que principalmente los abuelos cachenses mantienen sus capacidades sensoriales y extrasensoriales para interpretar la infinidad de signos comunicacionales propios que ayudan a predecir hechos, a construir valores y a mantener la armonía comunitaria.
Prácticas comunicacionales de mujeres indígenas ramas, en la transmisión de la lengua originaria de las comunidades indígena Rama Cay y Bang Kukut Taik
Authors: García Peralta Yovira Neftali , García Peralta Ilenia Arllery
Published: October 2019

El presente trabajo se realizó con la finalidad de conocer las prácticas comunicacionales utilizadas por las mujeres en la trasmisión de la Lengua Rama o Lengua Originaria – en las comunidades indígenas Rama Cay y Bang Kukut Taik, del municipio de Bluefields. La investigación sentó sus bases en la metodologia del cultivo y crianza de sabidurías y conocimiento (CCRISAC); fue vivencial, de acción intercultural. Se aplicaron entrevistas, se realizaron grupos focales, asambleas comunitarias, visitas casa a casa y observación directa. En tal sentido, se logró identificar que la transmisión de la lengua rama u originaria, es un rol asignado a la mujer, como responsable de la crianza de los niños y niñas. La comunicación oral y simbólica, son los medios de enseñanza, acompañada de elementos del ambiente, los cuales facilitan el aprendizaje de la lengua. Los intercambios familiares, los espacios de la iglesia y la escuela han sido fundamentales para la práctica de la misma. Los comunitarios y comunitarias enfatizan en la relevancia que tiene la recuperación de la lengua como parte de la vida misma.
Contenidos Comunicacionales en la Composición Visual de la Diversidad Simbólica de la Cerámica del Pueblo Pasto de la Fase Cuasmal/Tuza del Cantón Montúfar
Authors: Ayala Coral Gabriela Elizabeth , Yantalema Caín Alfonso Bolívar
Published: October 2019

Esta investigación establece la diversidad comunicacional en los contenidos del arte de los pueblos originarios en el territorio del Ecuador, específicamente en la iconografía de la cerámica de la cultura Pasto en su fase Cuasmal Tuza, en Montúfar, que conjuntamente con las manifestaciones contemporáneas de artistas visuales comprometidos por una cultura propia, evidencian un sistema de comunicación intercultural. Además, que el pueblo Pasto visibiliza a través de los años una cerámica con metodología gráfica para compartir la cosmovisión de aquél tiempo. Practicidad plástica concebida a partir de la abstracción y simplificación de la idea o la forma representada. En la actualidad la investigación es más rigurosa y los fundamentos gráficos de esta cultura varían acorde a la dimensión teórica, así como la multiplicidad de pensamiento concebido desde áreas de carácter social, artístico, político y cultural. Es por eso que este estudio plantea una hibridación teórica entre el arte como punto de creación a través del origen y la comunicación intercultural como anclaje para la comprensión de la transmisión de conocimientos y saberes de una cualidad itinerante. De esta manera, al insistir en revitalizar las culturas antecesoras se establece la interculturalidad entre el pasado y la actualidad. Siendo necesario entender una cultura que camina sigilosa, evoluciona y comunica los diálogos de cada época, idóneos para un desarrollo y metamorfosis simbólica social, a través de las expresiones de una humanidad comunicadora que trasciende con su ingenio visual.

Rol de los Comunicadores Kichwas de ERPE, durante los levantamientos indígenas de 1990 y 1994 en Ecuador
Authors: Cuji Pucha Manuela , Chimbo Mayancela Maribel Elizabeth
Published: October 2019

Los resultados del presente trabajo dan cuenta de acontecimientos en donde interactué como comunicadora y dirigente comunitaria indígena, en uno de los sucesos más importantes de finales de siglo pasado, en 1990 se producía una protesta indígena que marcó la historia del Ecuador, lo que aparentaba ser una simple medida de hecho, demostró ser una movilización con un fuerte peso organizativo, con voces y propuestas propias. De esta manera, se aborda el rol de los primeros comunicadores comunitarios kichwas, sus aportes en el ámbito de la comunicación comunitaria y su papel protagónico en las dos movilizaciones más importantes de los años 90. Su relevancia radica en el hecho de tener en cuenta las voces que hicieron posible la comunicación en los levantamientos, de quienes no solo comunicaron, sino que organizaron a sus comunidades desde allí y desde sus micrófonos, siendo así agentes transformadores de su realidad y la de sus comunidades. Se empleó el “Método Vivencial Simbólico Relacional” que implicó un proceso inicial de vivencia y experiencia en y con la comunidad, para luego recuperar lo vivenciado y reencantarse con ello en un primer intento de sistematización; enseguida se dio significado a los acontecimientos para, a partir de allí, involucrarse y comprometerse con la realización de un radio teatro para ser producido y transmitido desde la radio ERPE
Prácticas Comunicacionales desde las Vivencias Familiares del Pueblo Afrodescendiente
Authors: Calderón Rivera Neylin , Montoya Ortega Yulmar
Published: October 2019

El pueblo creole ha persistido de una u otra forma en un contexto multiétnico, ha podido conservar su cultura, transmitir su idioma, sus costumbres y tradiciones. Recuerdan que ha sido una ardua tarea para sus ancianos y ancianas. El hecho de convivir en una región diversa culturalmente les ha dificultado la transmisión de la lengua originaria pero cada uno de esos obstáculos han sido superados, porque en medio del entorno familiar se han fortalecido las prácticas comunicacionales ancestrales. Con este estudio se describen parte de estas prácticas que han perdurado en el seno de las familias creoles de los municipios de Siuna, Rosita y Bonanza en la Región Autónoma de la Costa Caribe Norte de Nicaragua. Se comparten tradiciones, costumbres, creencias, símbolos y tipos de comunicación que tuvieron y tienen estas familias donde están inmersos los relatos de señores y señoras mayores de edad pertenecientes al pueblo afrodescendiente, originarios del Caribe Sur de Nicaragua y que por décadas han permanecido en la costa caribe norte del país, región donde construyeron y potenciaron sus propias prácticas familiares, costumbres y tradiciones ancestrales.

Published: October 2019

Long-distance running has become increasingly popular during the past decades. Many running patients pose questions to their orthopaedic surgeons regarding risks, benefits, and running techniques. This article identifies 11 running-related questions that patients may ask and provides information to help answer those questions. This review discusses data on the health benefits of running, common running injuries, the relationship between running and osteoarthritis, recommendations regarding running after orthopaedic surgery, running shoes, and other questions that may arise when treating the running athlete.
An Investigation Into the Knowledge of South African Pharmacists on the Identification and Management of Drug-Drug Interactions
Authors: Baksh Mohammed A. , Perumal-Pillay Velisha A. , Oosthuizen Frasia
Published: October 2019

BACKGROUND: Detecting and reporting drug-drug interactions (DDIs) is an important role of pharmacists. Standard operating procedures (SOPs), that can be used to manage DDIs is not a requirement at pharmacies in South Africa. SOPs create standardized methods of identifying and reporting DDIs.

AIM: The aim of this study was to investigate the knowledge of South African pharmacists on the identification and management of DDIs as well as the availability and use of SOPs in the detection and management of DDIs.

METHODS: A quantitative approach was used targeting registered pharmacists from two provinces in South Africa, namely Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal. 153 responses were received after mailing the questionnaire to 200 pharmacists (76.5% response rate). Data was analysed by using Microsoft Excel® and SPSS® (version 23.0).

RESULTS: The majority (93.5%) of respondents were able to correctly define. Forty-four percent of respondents were aware of the existence of SOPs in their respective pharmacies. The majority of the respondents (80.4%) were of the opinion that having SOPs in place for the management of DDIs benefit the identification of these in the pharmacy environment. The findings indicated that availability and access of SOPs are the same across all sectors of pharmacy.

CONCLUSION: The results show that the majority of participants have a sound knowledge regarding DDIs as well as the importance of reporting them should such events occur. While most pharmacists were not aware of SOPs in their pharmacies, they regarded this as beneficial.
Geochemical comparison of late Mesozoic and early Cenozoic volcanic rocks in South Mongolia

Published: October 2019

The Mesozoic-Cenozoic volcanic rocks are widely distributed in the interior of the East Asia and document the tectonic transition of East Asia. We present new geochronology and geochemistry data of late Cretaceous-early Cenozoic basalts in Bayantsagaan and Han-Uul volcanic provinces in South Mongolia, in order to explore their petrogenesis and geodynamic settings. The volcanic rocks in the Bayantsagaan and Han-Uul field yielded K-Ar ages of 90.55±1.93 Ma and 55.49±1.49 Ma, respectively. The volcanic rocks in South Mongolia can be subdivided into to alkaline basalts and tholeiitic series, and are characterized by ocean island basalts (OIB) trace elements features, such as enrichment of light REE relative to heavy REE and enrichment in large ion lithophile elements (LILE) with positive K anomaly. Compared with the late Cretaceous, the early Cenozoic basalts show a decrease in the contents of HREE and an increase of Nb and Ta. Crustal contamination and fractional crystallization are insignificant in the genesis of late Cretaceous-early Cenozoic basalts South Mongolia. The available Sr-Nd isotope results indicate that a mixing depleted (DM) and enriched mantle (EM) signature characterize in late Cretaceous volcanic rocks, which derived from magmas from the asthenosphere with some contributions of metasomatized subcontinent lithospheric mantle, whereas the early Cenozoic basalts are ascribed to contributions from the asthenospheric mantle. We propose that the generation of the late Cretaceous-early Cenozoic volcanism (90-40 Ma) in Mongolia is probably related to the shallow mantle upwelling (asthenosphere) induced by the edge convection along the northern margin of the North China Craton (NCC), triggered by a far-field effect of Indo-Asian collision.
Uranium deposits of Mongolia, their exploration and mine development
Authors: Altankhuyag Dorjyunden , Baatartsogt Baldorj , Munkhtur Batbold
Published: October 2019

Most of the known uranium deposits in Mongolia are related to volcano-tectonic structures of the Late Mesozoic and permeable sandstone aquifers of terrigenous sedimentary rocks in Late Mesozoic-Cenozoic basins. A young uranium deposit has been recently discovered at the surface in Quaternary alluvial sediments. Uranium deposits are classified here according to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) classification scheme. Beside of supergene and hydrothermal uranium discoveries, uranium mineralization can also be found in the Lower Cretaceous lignite seams, in Mesozoic alkaline intrusive rock related REE, Th, U enriched mineral systems and in metasomatic rocks, as well as in migmatites and pegmatites localized in Precambrian metamorphic rocks. Currently, no uranium can be produced in Mongolian facilities except pilot testing being done first. A pilot test was carried out at the Khairhan and Kharaat deposits in Mongolia and these experiments have demonstrated the ore to be amenable to acid leach (sulphuric acid) with the addition of an oxidizing agent. These tests confirmed that hydraulic control can be maintained and that the uranium solubilization and mobilization can be controlled. The results of the test were encouraging, with the well production rate, uranium concentration in produced solutions, chemical usage, and estimated uranium recovery all within ranges expected for normal commercial operations. There are a number of Mongolian uranium deposits are in the stage of mine development. The Government of Mongolia has approved the agreement of mine development of the Zuuvch ovoo and Dulaan uul deposits. Pilot testing on these deposits is underway and uranium will be extracted by in-situ leaching soon.

Die BGH-Rechtsprechung zur Anlageberatung im Lichte der Behavioral-Finance-Forschung
Authors: Peters Kerstin
Published: October 2019

Behavioral finance research shows that investors do not act purely rationally when they seek investment advice, but are influenced by numerous irrational behavior patterns. In this respect, the author analyses the case law of Germany’s Federal Court of Justice [Bundesgerichtshof] on investment advice. In particular, the author critically examines the investor protection concept of the Federal Court of Justice, which is based on personal responsibility.
Firstly, the study shows which irrational behaviors typically occur in an investment advisory situation. Then, it analyses whether the duties of the investment advisors are sufficiently aligned with these behaviors, and whether the intended investor protection can actually be achieved. Finally, the author develops suggestions for improvement that relate to various duties of the advisors, as well as to the investor protection concept.
Informationelle Selbstbestimmung und effektiver Rechtsschutz im Strafvollzug
Authors: Buermeyer Ulf
Published: October 2019

Data protection certainly isn’t the main concern of penitentiary inmates or administrations. But the issue of privacy in correctional institutions is especially well-suited to ask about the requirements for „good legislation“. This work makes suggestions how informational self-determination can be effective in prison thanks to appropriate statutory law. One of the main factors is the limited effectiveness of legal redress in prisons: How can the administration be “programmed” in such a way as to let the basic right to privacy come to fruition, if possible automatically?

The correctional institution usually still confronts the inmates as a total institution. It can define and register their lives almost entirely. Therefore life behind bars is of particular interest in order to analyse the importance of data handling for individual freedom and social interactions. Based thereon the author develops practical guidance for legislation in the field of privacy that can easily be adopted for other fields of law.
