Authors: Gorovenko M. V. , Karimov I. Z.
Published: June 2016

The Crimean Peninsula is located in the Northern part of the Black sea, from the East it is washed by the Sea of Azov, to the South and West by the Black Sea. The unique geographical and climatic conditions facilitate leptospirosis, tularemia, tick-borne encephalitis, Lyme disease, intestinal yersiniosis, pseudotuberculosis, hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever, Mediterranean fever, Q-fever and other infectious diseases natural foci formation on the territory of Crimea Republic. Tick-borne natural focal infections have the most significance due to favorable epidemiologic conditions especially on the background of high raid ticks attacks on people. A leading role in the epizootology and epidemiology of tick-borne natural-focal infections of the Crimea are playing Ixodidae that occur in different landscape-climatic zones, with the greatest their species diversity is observed in mountain-foothill, forest and forest-steppe regions. There are about 30 species in Ixodidae fauna of the Crimean Peninsula. Ticks species composition identification shows that over 50% of people attacks episodes in the Crimea on recent years is caused by Ixodes ricinus ticks species, the remaining are associated with Haemophisalis punctata, Rhipicephalus sanguineus, Hyalomma marginatum, Dermacentor marginatus and other. Refusal of treatment in medical institutions of the people affected by tick bites, and the possibility of an attack on people subtle phases of mites are lubricates the real picture of the frequency of contacts of the population with ticks and complicates the forecasting of the epidemiological situation. This review summarizes the available information about spreading of tick-borne encephalitis, Lyme disease, Mediterranean and Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fevers on the territory of Crimea Republic and demonstrates the modern trends and manifestations of epidemic process of these nosological forms. The results obtained in the analysis of our investigations and literature data, showed that the conditions of globalization lead to an increase in the frequency of contacts of the population with natural foci, and one of the most common tick-borne natural focal infections on the territory of the Peninsula are Lyme disease and the Mediterranean fever. Epidemiological analysis of the prevalence of tick-borne encephalitis and Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever in Crimea revealed a decrease in the activity of natural foci of these infections at the present stage. The problem of tick-borne natural focal infections in Crimea Republic requires further careful study.

Introduction of flow cytometry caused an increase in the investigation of liquor lymphocyte pool phenotype in the case of different brain disorders, including viral and bacterial meningitis, however this type of research in children has been relatively rare. Phenotype and lymphocyte functions are under cytokine control system, therefore detection of interconnections between lymphocyte pool subpopulation composition and cytokine level in blood and liquor of the patients concerns a great interest. The purpose of this research was to study lymphocyte subpopulation composition and the level of cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IFNα, IFNγ and IL-4, and also IgG in liquor and blood of children with viral and bacterial meningitis. There was performed blood and liquor investigation in 46 children aged from 1 to 16 years old with viral (n = 35) and bacterial (n = 11) meningitis. Immunophenotyping of blood and liquor cells was performed by the method of flow cytometry with the use of monoclonal antibodies to CD3, CD4, CD8, CD19, CD16, CD56, CD25 and CD95. The content of cytokines was detected in ELISA, and that of IgG — by the method of quantitative immunoturbodimetry. During an acute period of viral meningitis there was detected a decrease in NK portion and activated CD25+ cells in the blood of patients accompanied by the increase in B-lymphocytes number, along with cytokine IFNγ, IL-8 and IL-10 serum level rise. There was determined T-lymphocytes accumulation in liquor with the prevalence of CD4+ Т-cells and, to a lesser degree, CD25+ and CD95+ cells, NK and B-lymphocytes. Intrathecally there was noted the predominance of IL-6 response accompanied by the growth of IL-8 and IL-10 concentration as well. During an acute period of bacterial meningitis there was noted a decrease in percentage of CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ Т-lymphocytes, NK, CD25+ and CD95+ cells, along with, on the contrary, sharp increase in B-cells pool, simultaneously with an expressed system response of IL-8 and IL-10. Liquor T-lymphocyte content was relatively correlated with blood indicators whereas the fraction of NK exceeded it, and B-lymphocyte content was 3–4 times higher than in patients with viral meningitis. There was IL-6, IL-10, IFNγ and IL-4 response intrathecally, and 10-multiply-growth of IgG level. Thus, the redistribution of lymphocyte subpopulations, and system and local cytokine response in children with meningitis have both common and special features depending on the aetiology and severity of disease. Phenotyping of lymphocytes and determination of both cytokines and immunoglobulins simultaneously in two biologic fluid allow to clear up the pathogenetic value of immunologic abnormalities in blood and cerebrospinal fluid of the patients in the aspect of interactions between cell and humoral factors of system and local immune response in neuroinfections of various aetiology.

Over the years, the production release of the plague vaccine is well developed its technology. The technological cycle of production of the preparation consists of regulated steps, however, despite their effectiveness it is necessary to modernize the manufactoring process, for example, solutions for some of the pressing needs of the customers, in particular, small groups of immunization. Our research has focused on obtaining experimental samples plague vaccine smaller compared to the commercial vaccine, the number of doses per vial prepared in a biomass production unit (ACM-Sh) surface by cultivation using all regulated processing steps, except step of combining content two swabs, and then an additional dilution of the cell suspension stabilizer. However, the time information and the subsequent preparation of such a vaccine is excluded us, since biomass is the second flush in quantitative terms is a ready raw material for the preparation of reduced dosage. The benefits of receiving the vaccine reduced the number of doses directly from the biomass of the second flush with the concentration of microbial cells Yersinia pestis EV 20–40 × 109 biotechnology greatly simplify the manufacture of such a preparation. The experimental vaccine series were tested by major regulated parameters: optical concentration, vitality, thermal stability, the loss on drying. In addition, the vaccine was prefabricated with high baseline viability to extreme temperatures (37±1)°C for 24 hours to exclude enough viable microbial cells for subsequent stabilization indicator of viability during storage. It should be noted that all the experimental samples preserved viability index not lower regulated (25%) during the experiment, in contrast to the commercial preparation. To determine the stability of the formulation during storage (over 3 years) was a comparative analysis of the viability of the experimental and commercial lots. To assess post vaccination immune analyzed the immune response to the introduction of a plague vaccine using FACSCalibur flow cytometer, considering that this technology has a high specificity, sensitivity and informativity. With regard to the immunogenic properties, the active component is recorded at a very high level as the white mice, and guinea pigs. Thus, the main biological indicators derived preparations (viability, thermal stability, storage stability) exceed those of commercial analog and provide effective immunological alterations and highly immunogenic in experimental animals.
Fatigue properties of shear–peeling debonding between CFRP plates and concrete
Authors: Zhang Wei , Yan Jia-Bao
Published: June 2016

This paper presents a study of the fatigue bond behaviour of the bonded interface between carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) plates and the concrete surface in double-lap shear tests. In total, 12 specimens were constructed and tested. The variables in the test were concrete compressive strength, initial angle of attachment at the specimen centre and different fatigue load levels. Strain gauges were bonded at 50 mm intervals along the CFRP plate surface, and linear variable displacement transducers were used to measure the longitudinal strains and displacements between the CFRP plate and the concrete substrate in longitudinal and perpendicular directions. The relative slip evolution curves of the CFRP plate–concrete bonded interface under fatigue load were calculated and the strain distributions and bond–slip behaviour were analysed. Fitting of the S–N curve showed no influence on fatigue life corresponding to the initial angle induced by fast peeling by peel and shear. The results predicted using the fatigue local bond–slip model were found to agree with the test results.

A análise do repertório iconográfico da produção cerâmica argiva do Período Geométrico na Grécia (c. 900 a 700 a.C.) revela sua
originalidade, especificidade e autonomia e fornece elementos e
indícios para a compreensão das relações entre a arte e a sociedade, principalmente no que diz respeito aos pressupostos e características da Arte Geométrica. Neste breve artigo, focaremos nossa abordagem e perspectiva de análise em determinados motivos figurados peculiares das composições iconográficas argivas por meio da técnica aplicada e do desenvolvimento estilístico dos mesmos durante o Período
Geométrico. Este pequeno recorte de estudo visa refletir e
compreender como tais elementos estão engendrados por
modificações sociais, culturais e políticas características do final deste período com o processo de emergência e formação da pólis argiva e permite, ainda, levantar questões sobre a importância da produção geométrica argiva na Arte Geométrica grega.
Que tradução?
Authors: Marques Júnior Milton
Published: June 2016

Intentamos com este trabalho fazer uma reflexão sobre a tradução de textos clássicos, mais especificamente textos da poesia latina. Antes de tudo, esclarecemos que este ensaio tem uma finalidade didática de expor uma possibilidade, entre outras, de tradução em versos metrificados e ritmados. Encarando a tradução como uma complexidade, qualquer que seja a língua a ser traduzida, procuramos, na prática diária do ensino do latim e da literatura latina, buscar meios e possibilidades de tradução para unir a máxima fidelidade possível ao texto latino a um trabalho estético, resultado nem sempre exitoso. Sendo assim, com base no conhecido epigrama XIX, do livro I de Marcial, fizemos, inicialmente, uma tradução operacional e, em seguida, fomos trabalhando o texto até chegarmos à tradução em versos heptassílabos duplos com rimas emparelhadas.

Published: June 2016

Botulinum toxin blocks the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine and helps to treat wrinkles. The efficacy and safety of botulinum toxin injection for upper facial wrinkles were established in several previous studies. Common side effects include transient headache, bruising, eyebrow ptosis and eyelid swelling. No adverse life threatening events or long-term complications have been reported. However, there have been a few reports on site-specific side effects, except for eyebrow ptosis or eyelid swelling. Two previous cases showing exaggerated glabellar wrinkles after botulinum toxin injection for forehead horizontal lines reported that no specific treatment for the exaggeration of wrinkles were done and it was left to slowly recede. In the present report, we highlighted a patient, whose significant glabellar protrusion was rapidly and effectively corrected with the use of botulinum toxin injection.

Authors: Najitama Fikria
Published: June 2016

This paper discusses the identity represented by the community of Padepokan dakwah Sunan Kalijaga (Padasuka). This community is located in Pesantren Ummul Qura, Pondok Cabe Ilir, South Tangerang. There are several reasons underlying the need to explore Padasuka community. One of them is the black clothes and Javanese blangkon of the male members. This fact is certainly interesting as this community exists in a multi- ethnic region and modern urban area. The finding shows that Kiai Syarif, as the leader plays a dominant role in the process of identity representation. This is because he has a strong capital in the social and cultural aspects. In addition, the cultural identity of the community not only serves to determine the code of conduct, but also as a tool of resistance against the domination of the external culture.

Tulisan ini membahas identitas yang digunakan oleh komunitas Padepokan dakwah Sunan Kalijaga (Padasuka). Padasuka merupakan komunitas yang berada dalam Pesantren Ummul Qura, Pondok Cabe Ilir, Tangerang Selatan. Ada beberapa alasan yang menjadikan komunitas Padasuka menarik untuk dikaji. Salah satunya adalah pakaian mereka yang serba hitam, dan memakai blangkon dari Jawa bagi anggota laki-laki. Kenyataan ini tentunya menarik, karena Padasuka berada dalam kawasan multi-etnis dan wilayah perkotaan yang modern. Hasil penelitian ini menjelaskan bahwa Kiai Syarif, sebagai tokoh komunitas Padasuka, mempunyai posisi yang sangat dominan dalam proses reproduksi identitas. Hal ini karena dia memiliki modal yang kuat dalam aspek sosial dan kultural. Selain itu, dalam komunitas Padasuka, identitas budaya bukan hanya sebagai pengarah yang menentukan kode etik, namun juga menjadi alat resistensi atas dominasi budaya dari luar.
El 'Orlando' de Woolf, y el método biográfico
Authors: Falomir Sofía
Published: June 2016

En Orlando, Virginia Woolf se empeña en poner de manifiesto las complejidades inherentes a la biografía como género literario: la relación entre el observador y lo observado, la cuestión de la objetividad, la discrepancia entre el arte y la vida, el significante y el significado, y las fallas intrínsecas al lenguaje como medio de representación. El presente trabajo va a discutir estos temas, argumentando que a través de su tono fantasioso y travieso, Orlando pone en tela de juicio la posibilidad misma del relato biográfico cuando éste pretende ser un retrato fiel de una vida. En última instancia, argumentaremos que Woolf muestra que la división entre “vida” y “escritura”, o “realidad” y “ficción”, suele ser poco nítida.
Policy and scope for practice of ergonomics in Agro Processing Industries in Kerala
Authors: Paulose Brighty
Published: June 2016

Kerala agriculture, over the last few decades has been facing multifaceted challenges, from the conversion of its green land-both wet and garden for the housing well as commercial purposes. The tillers of the land, to a large extent still remain only a producer of raw material in the sector. While the farm land productivity in rupee terms of Kerala agriculture is highest in the country with Rs.53,000/-per hector, the achievement of bottom level farmers still remain pathetic with all profits of value addition swept away by few agents in the industry. Why there is not much value addition done by the basic producers? The answer is clearly the lack of capital base and poor entrepreneurship in the unorganized sector. There are rays of hope in the activities of our new gen agriculture officers who are widely organizing production and marketing activities in rural areas, which may cater to the self-reliance needs of rural farmers. Above all, the most promising area is the value addition sector in agriculture. This includes sub sectors like dairy products and livestock products also.

The country accorded high priority to development of human resources through investments in education, nutrition and health. The national Five Year Plans, enunciated the policies, laid down strategies, outlined programmes to improve health and nutritional status of the population, laid the goals to be achieved in specified time frame and provided the needed funds to implement the interventions. The National Health Policy set ambitious goals for health, population and nutrition sectors to be achieved by 2000 AD. Over years there has been substantial progress but given the vast country and varied problems in different states and various constraints, the progress towards these goals was uneven and the country could not achieve many of the goals set for 2000 AD.

Published: June 2016

Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) is a complicated disorder that increases a person's risk to cardiovascular disease and diabetes mellitus and therefore, needs to be diagnosed early. Young adults in business process outsourcing industry (BPO) may be more susceptible to the syndrome owing to the sedentary nature of their work and other lifestyle factors. This study aimed at assessing the prevalence of MetS among young business process outsourcing industry employees (21-30 years). In this cross-sectional study conducted in the National Capital Region of India, MetS was diagnosed using the Adult Treatment Pattern III (NCEP ATPIII, 2001) and International Diabetes Federation (IDF, 2005) (ethnicity specific) criteria among 415 business process outsourcing employees (274 males; 141 females) working at the calling level. Prevalence of MetS was 11.8% according to ATPIII criteria (14.6% males; 6.4% females) and 18.3% according to IDF criteria (22.3% males; 10.6% females) and was significantly higher in males compared to females (ATPIII p = 0.014; 95% CI 0.02, 0.14; IDF:p = 0.004; 95% CI 0.05, 0.19). As per the ATPIII criteria, highest proportion of the employees had low levels of HDL cholesterol (48.2%) whereas as per the IDF criteria, they had high waist circumference (58.6%). MetS was significantly associated with being single (ATPIII p=0.003; IDF p=0.012), having monthly income more than 20,000 INR (ATPIII p=0.009), having waist to height ratio ≥ 0.5 (ATPIII p=0.002; IDF p=0.000) and BMI ≥ 23kg/m2 (ATPIII p=0.000; IDF p=0.000). With nearly 1/5th of the BPO employees having MetS at a young age (21-30 years), there is an urgent need to initiate appropriate workplace screening and intervention strategies to prevent and reverse the syndrome among them.

Published: June 2016

A sample of 1000 urban and rural college students in the age group of 18-25 yrs were randomly selected from six colleges of Hoshiarpur district of Punjab. The prevalence of hypertension among college students was found to be 19.2 % with higher prevalence among males (22%) as compared to females (18%). The rural males (26 vs 18) and females (17 vs 16) were found to be highly affected. The findings further revealed higher percentage of females (44%) in the underweight category as compared to males (28%). On the similar lines high percentage of subjects were found to be underweight (51 % females and 33 % males). Both systolic and diastolic blood pressure showed significant correlation (p < 0.01) with pocket money and Body Mass Index, whereas diastolic blood pressure was significantly correlated (p < 0.01) with monthly family income. The relationship of associated risk factors of hypertension was found to be positive with malnutrition, staging higher risk of hypertension in underweight as well as overweight subjects.

Published: June 2016

Exercise is the stressor that can perturb body zinc homeostasis because it increases zinc loss and exercise is also the potent stressor that influences circulating zinc concentration in the blood affecting the physical performance of a person. Zinc added in the diets increases muscle strength and improves the endurance performance. The data on the effect of zinc supplementation in the dietary form and the endurance level of the athletes were found to be limited. The zinc supplements in the form of pills causes side effect, therefore an attempt was made to find out a dietary zinc supplement and its effect on the physical performance of rats. To find the effect of formulated sesame nutribar on the performance of the rats, 28 days supplementation protocol was carried out on a rat model. The desiccated coconut nutribar designed for the athletes containing 0.06mg (Experimental -I) and 0.08mg (Experimental-II) of dietary zinc were supplemented and a basal diet was fed to the control group (CGP) and physical training test was performed and evaluated. The rats of CGP were found to perform less in the swim test than Exp-I and Exp-II with F value being highly significant (p<0.01), thus indicating the effect of zinc present in the sesame nutribar. The data indicates the supplementation of the dietary zinc in the form of sesame nutribar improved the physical performance of the rats and thus can be used in place of elemental zinc.

Published: June 2016

Tamarind (Tamarindus indica), an acidulant spice, is a rich source of tartaric acid, an iron absorption promoter. Hence, in this context, the study aimed at formulating iron fortified tamarind based spice mixes used for South Indian dishes (Puliyogare, Rasam, Bisibele-bhat and Sambar) and analyze their nutritional and sensory quality. Masala powders were formulated using tamarind powder, pulses, salts and spices and fortified with either ferrous sulfate or ferrous fumarate to yield 2.0 mg iron/100g or ml of serving. Non-fortified products served as controls. Products were analyzed for nutrients, anti-nutrients and bio accessible iron using standard methods and evaluated for sensory attributes by 48-60 members. The range of constituents in dry tamarind and control masala powder per 100g respectively were as follows:- protein, 3.68 and 5.30-8.70%; fat, 0.36 and 3.26-6.80%; iron,18.27 and 6.2-11.5mg; calcium, 97.4 and 120.6-198.9mg; oxalates, 120.1 and 156.5- 366.2mg; phytates, 728.4 and 122.2- 176.7mg and tannins, 1240 and 204-233.2mg. Iron content in fortified products ranged from 28.3-47.2mg/100g respectively. More than 70% of iron was bioaccessible in iron fortified products, in comparison to 30-37% in control products. All the products were highly acceptable by panel members for all sensory attributes.

Evaluating Public Health Interventions: 3. The Two-Stage Design for Confounding Bias Reduction—Having Your Cake and Eating It Two
Authors: Spiegelman Donna , Rivera-Rodriguez Claudia L. , Haneuse Sebastien
Published: June 2016

In public health evaluations, confounding bias in the estimate of the intervention effect will typically threaten the validity of the findings. It is a common misperception that the only way to avoid this bias is to measure detailed, high-quality data on potential confounders for every intervention participant, but this strategy for adjusting for confounding bias is often infeasible.

Rather than ignoring confounding altogether, the two-phase design and analysis—in which detailed high-quality confounding data are obtained among a small subsample—can be considered.

We describe the two-stage design and analysis approach, and illustrate its use in the evaluation of an intervention conducted in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, of an enhanced community health worker program to improve antenatal care uptake.

Competencia y autoeficacia: Estudio de los factores afectivos en el traductor
Authors: ALBIN Joanna
Published: June 2016

El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar los resultados de un estudio acerca de los aspectos afectivos del traductor. Su descripción toma conceptos desarrollados dentro del campo de la psicología: autoeficacia, atribuciones y motivaciones. Los resultados obtenidos revelan vínculos entre las actitudes y ciertas habilidades. Por ejemplo, tener una gran autoeficacia y un estilo favorable de atribución está claramente relacionado un alto nivel de gestión y de capacidad para trabajar con herramientas de TAO. Asimismo, los criterios aplicados para la autoevaluación son de gran utilidad. Los traductores con una gran autoeficacia se consideran en términos de dinero y prestigio, mientras que los traductores con una autoeficacia menor tienden a autoreferenciarse más. Esto pone de relieve la importancia de los componentes sociales en la traducción profesional.

Análisis lingüístico-cultural del imaginario de los judíos a través los refranes
Authors: LUQUE NADAL Lucía
Published: June 2016

El presente trabajo expone la relación directa que existe entre los refranes sobre los judíos en español y el imaginario que sobre estos se ha creado a lo largo de los siglos en España. La relación entre el lenguaje y la ideología es tan estrecha que incluso un imaginario, basado más o menos en prejuicios, es capaz de resistir el avance del tiempo aun cuando el objeto de dichos prejuicios haya desaparecido de la sociedad y no tenga vigencia alguna en ella, como en el caso de los judíos e n España o el caso de las expresiones antisemitas en la lengua polaca actual. Para establecer el imaginario sobre los judíos se han analizado y dividido los refranes que hacen alusión a los judíos en diversos apartados: apariencia física, carácter, religión, economía, relación con los cristianos, etc. Se ha concluido que el imaginario que se obtiene del análisis de los refranes sobre judíos ofrece una serie de estereotipos muy parecidos a los que existen en otras lenguas europeas. Finalmente y como se observa en el ejemplo del polaco, un imaginario pervive en la lengua siempre que pervivan las expresiones paremiológicas y fraseológicas que lo sustentan.

Meditations among the Tombs: In a Letter to a Lady de James Hervey, traducida al francés en 1770 por Mme d’Arconville
Authors: MARTÍNEZ OJEDA Beatriz , VILLA JIMÉNEZ Rosalía
Published: June 2016

La denominada “Graveyard School” o Poesía de las tumbas surge en pleno declive de la estética literaria augusta que florece a comienzos del siglo XVIII. Este giro implica el abandono paulatino de los paisajes idílicos de la Arcadia como consecuencia de la óptica humanitaria que define la llamada Cultura de la sensibilidad de mediados de siglo. La idea subyacente de esta modalidad poética sombría y melancólica se concibe como una reacción al progreso social que aliena a las clases sociales y margina a las clases bajas y campesinas a la más absoluta pobreza. Los poetas de la Poesía de las tumbas tienen por objeto denunciar la precariedad y demandar conmiseración a aquellos que gozan de riquezas. La muerte, la tumba y el cementerio se tornan en imágenes recurrentes que hacen alusión a la mutabilidad de la materia y la fugacidad de la existencia. Con estas, los poetas del cementerio pretenden conmover a los ambiciosos y los alientan a que contemplen la salvación espiritual de los miserables así como la suya. El hecho de traducir las obras más aclamadas de los poetas de la Poesía de las tumbas, en nuestro caso, Meditations among the Tombs: In a letter to a Lady (1746) del prosista y clérigo James Hervey, supone estrechar lazos entre la modalidad lúgubre inglesa, única en su estética, y la de los países circundantes, en concreto Francia. La versión francesa de Mme d’Arconville (1770) es un ejemplo ilustrativo de este intercambio intertextual e intercultural. Su traducción destaca por la sublime belleza de sus versos y la fidelidad que muestra con respecto al texto original. Sin embargo, su talento siempre ha estado bajo la sombra de otros traductores contemporáneos de gran reconocimiento. El objetivo principal es analizar las características principales que moldean la versión francesa de Meditations among the Tombs: In a letter to a Lady.

Los poetas lakistas y la traducción en Portugal
Authors: SABIO PINILLA José A.
Published: June 2016

A finales del siglo XVIII y principios del siglo XIX se produce en Portugal un cierto interés por la literatura inglesa de transición hacia el Romanticismo (traducciones de los poemas de Thomas Gray, Edward Young, John Milton, James Thomson, Oliver Goldsmith, y la prosa poética de James Hervey), pertenecientes casi todos a la denominada “Graveyard School” o Escuela de los Cementerios. En este trabajo vemos dos de esos ejemplos de Alexandre Herculano y Soares de Passos: “A Noiva do Sepulcro” y “O Noivado do Sepulcro”, con su correspondiente traducción española.
Robert Southey difusor de la obra de Kirke White: “Clifton Grove”
Authors: GARCÍA CALDERÓN Ángeles
Published: June 2016

Trabajo que se ocupa de la figura del escritor inglés Henry Kirke White, conocido por los lectores gracias al esfuerzo de uno de los tres poetas "lakistas", Robert Southey. Tras una breve referencia a la utópica comunidad que quisieron poner en marcha Coleridge y Southey, basada en el pensamiento de William Godwin y su obra An Enquiry Concerning Political justice (1793), unas breves líneas sobre Southey dan paso a uno de los casos más llamativos de precocidad en poesía, comparable en muchos aspectos a otros poetas famosos a pesar de su pronta desaparición (Thomas Chatterton, Arthur Rimbaud, Émile Nelligan, etc.). Se traduce del autor, por vez primera en castellano, uno de sus poemas más notables: "Clifton Grove: A Sketch in Verse".
La recuperación de información y la traducción: hitos en el proceso de globalización
Authors: MARCOS ALDÓN Manuel
Published: June 2016

La información en sus diversas modalidades tanto la científica como la humanística y, en concreto, el proceso intercultural de la traducción, son analizados como hitos que integrados en un modelo de análisis permiten clarificar el proceso mundial de la globalización. No es posible pensar en el desarrollo global sin considerar la recepción y producción por las sociedades occidentales del proceso informativo y traductológico. Ítem más las traducciones como bien indicó Itama Ben-Zohar son indicadores naturales del proceso de recepción e interconexión entre diversas culturas; y de ahí la necesidad de generar modelos de recuperación especializados en lugar de motores de búsquedas no especializados.

Abstract: Women discrimination judges as a reason of rare of women ula>ma>. Muh}ammad saw, in early Islam, places women as men as well; they can improve their intellectuality, can express amount of activities freely. Nevertheless, phases after Muh}ammad death, The condition goes back significantly. This condition reduces women’s role both at domestic aspect and at public areas such as education and other works and activities. It is real that nowadays, there are fiercely few women ula>ma>’ who work at an intellectual atmosphere including intellectual works, a political world, and a social sphere. Patriarch culture ‘drives’ to this condition. Men’s oriented interpretation of religious texts gives also this condition worse because of its bias. This bias of interpretation reduces women rights.  ‘Women Perspective’, as a solution, can probably produce not only more fair religious law but also indiscriminative texts. Islamic world should ‘open’ and give women rights as human to raise their intellectual quality and to give birth of new women ula>ma>’.

MAKNA SIMBOLIK UPACARA SIRAMAN PENGANTIN ADAT JAWA
Authors: Irmawati Waryunah
Published: June 2016

Siraman (bathing) is a Javanese ritual ceremony that is done one day before the bride does the ijab qabul. In the siraman ritual, the operational rule and the equipments (uborampe) that are used are already definite (maton/pakem) as the symbols that have meanings. The meanings of the symbols in the siraman cannot be put off from Javanese context. Phenomenology and philosophy approaches using hermeneutic method towards siraman ritual are interpreted comprehensively to make the meanings of symbols clearly therefore the symbols in the siraman ritual can be understood. This research figures the inter relations among philosophy, culture and Islam.

***
Siraman (mandi) merupakan upacara adat Jawa yang dilakukan sehari sebelum pengantin melaksanakan ijab qabul. Dalam upacara siraman tata pelaksanaan dan peralatan (ubarambe) yang digunakan sudah maton/pakem sebagai sebuah simbol yang memiliki arti dan makna. Makna dan arti simbol dalam siraman tidak terlepas dari konteks Jawa. Model pendekatan fenomenologis, dan kemudian secara filosofis menggunakan metode hermeneutik diinterpretasikan secara komprehensif agar makin jelas arti dan makna sehingga akan lebih mudah memberikan pemahaman tentang saling hubungan (interelasi) antara filsafat, budaya dan Islam.

Published: June 2016

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the effect of two different laparoscopic entry methods on postoperative gastrointestinal functions.STUDY DESIGN: A total of 108 women who underwent gynecological operation via laparoscopic approach with different indications were randomly assigned to 2 groups: In Group 1 pneumoperiteneum was achieved by direct trocar entry (n=72), while in group 2, Veress needle was used.RESULTS: Correlation analyses showed a significant association between the technique for abdominal entry and postoperative hemoglobin and hematocrit concentrations, time to maximal intraabdominal pressure and the body mass index. Comparison of groups with different laparoscopic entry techniques showed a significant difference between groups in terms of postoperative hemoglobin and hematocrit concentrations, time to obtain maximal intraabdominal pressure and time to first flatulence (p < 0.05, Table 2). No intra or postoperative complications was observed.CONCLUSION: Direct or Veress needle entry methods were both safe to create pneumoperitoneum with similar postoperative gastrointestinal functions except for earlier first flatulence in Veress needle group while direct trocar entry was found to be associated with favorable postoperative blood count and shorter duration to obtain enough intraperitoneal pressure.
Predicting precipitation on nonpoint source pollutant exports in the source area of the Liao River, China
Authors: Wang Y. , Bian J. M. , Wang S. N. , Nie S. Y.
Published: June 2016

The source area of the Liao River is an important grain growing area in China which experiences serious problems with agricultural nonpoint source pollution (NPS) which is impacting the regional economy and society. In order to address the water quality issues it is necessary to understand the spatial distribution of NPS in the Liao River source area. This issue has been investigated by coupling a wavelet artificial neural network (WA-ANN) precipitation model with a soil and water assessment tool (SWAT) model to assess the export of nonpoint source pollutants from the Liao River source area. The calibration and validation of these models are outlined. The WA-ANN models and the SWAT model were run to generate the spatial distribution of nonpoint source nutrient (nitrogen and phosphorus) exports in the source area of the Liao River. It was found that the SWAT model identified the sub-catchments which not only receive high rainfall but are also densely populated with high agricultural production from dry fields and paddy fields, which are large users of pesticides and chemical fertilizer, as the primary source areas for nutrient exports. It is also concluded that the coupled WA-ANN models and the SWAT model provide a tool which will inform the identification of NPS issues and will facilitate the identification of management practices to improve the water environments in the source area of the Liao River.
Does Stress from Cell Phone Use Increase Negative Emotions at Work?
Authors: Lee Jooyeoun
Published: June 2016

I investigated how stress from work-related cell phone use can increase the negative emotions of anger and anxiety of employees, and identified the role of social influence in enhancing the effect of stress on emotions. Participants were organizational employees who actively used cell
phones in their work (N = 222). Results indicated that information overload increased their negative emotions, and that the perceived usefulness of cell devices mitigated this effect. When social influence promoting work-related smartphone use was included in the stressor– strain
model, however, the relationship between information overload and negative emotions was stronger when employees perceived greater usefulness of cell devices. Implications of the results are discussed.
