Authors: Batista Henrique Ferreira , Lírio Ferreira Jaiana Nunes
Published: April 2020

A cidade de Campos dos Goytacazes-RJ desde a sua formação foi organizada com base em uma estrutura composta por um único centro, o qual, ao longo do tempo, passou a concentrar, cada vez mais, atividades comerciais e de serviços. Contudo, em finais do século XX, mas principalmente a partir da primeira década do atual, essa cidade vem passando por um processo de transformação em sua estrutura intra-urbana (e urbana também), o que pode ser apreendido pela observação de novas áreas de concentração de comércios e serviços fora do Centro principal. Buscamos, ao longo deste artigo, elencar essas novas localizações de concentração – as quais delimitamos segundo observações e análises sistemáticas – e analisá-las de acordo com o seu respectivo número total de estabelecimentos, com os tipos de atividades existentes e também de acordo com os tipos de atividades preponderantes em cada uma das áreas selecionadas. Dessa forma, objetivamos evidenciar que essa cidade não possui mais apenas um centro comercial, mas é formada por uma estrutura composta por vários centros, marcada pela multicentralidade.

A POWERFUL ELISA TECHNIQUE TO TEST THE POTENTIAL OF EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL IN REDUCING TNF-Α LEVEL AND EDEMA VOLUME IN MALE Rattus norvegicus EXPOSED TO CARRAGEENAN
Authors: Aulia Andina Putri , Maat Suprapto , Aryati
Published: April 2020

Extra virgin Olive oil is extracted from fruit that can be used as anti-inflammatory agent. This research aimed to test the potential of extra virgin olive oil in reducing edema volume and TNF-α plasma in carrageenan-induced rats. This research was purely experimental research with the post test control group design. A total of twenty eight Wistar rats were divided randomly into four treatment groups. Group I was a control negative group, while the group II, III, and IV were orally administered with extra virgin Olive oil at the dose of 0.9 ; 1.8 ; 2.7 mL/day, respectively. Paw edema was measured one hour before the rats was induced to carrageenan and every hour until four hours after it was induced to carrageenan. TNF-α plasma was measured at four hours. Analysis of the data was done by calculating the presentation of edema inhibition in every group, then the data was statistically analyzed by Anova, Repeated Anova, LSD and Kruskal Wallis test with 95% confidence interval. The result showed that extra virgin olive oil has an anti-inflammatory effect. The highest decrease in edema volume percentage was in group III (14.21%). There was a significant difference in the edema volume of all treatment groups at each time of the experiment with TNF-α value (p < 0.05). In conclusion, the administration of extra virgin olive oil can lower the volume of carrageenan-induced edema in rats depend on the dose. Also, the administration of extra virgin olive oil can be dose-dependent in reducing the levels of TNF-α in carrageenan-induced edema in rats.

Authors: Karaçoban Atanas , Dita Patricia Denisa
Published: April 2020

Throughout the history of Western culture and art, there are numerous examples of those who, in their creativity, went beyond the limits of a particular art, embarking instead on attempts to combine in one artistic discourse the practices of various arts, such as music and poetic text, drama and dance, literature and sculpture, literature and painting, and so on. One of these artists is William Blake, acclaimed as a major poet and painter of romanticism in English and world art. He is accredited as the founder of a whole new and original method of producing artistic works, called “illuminated printing”, which is a remarkable combination of poetic text, decoration, and picture. Apart from revealing Blake’s appurtenance to romantic tradition, the present study aims to present the specificity of his technique and, primary, to disclose the ways in which it combines the artistic practice of poetry with that of painting as to render and strengthen the meaning by mutually sustaining and illuminating each other.

Authors: Costa Sandro Lucas Reis , Broietti Fabiele Cristiane Dias , Passos Marinez Meneghello
Published: April 2020

The development of teacher education focusing on reflective practice as well as the study of pre-service teacher reflections are educational concerns. This research seeks to categorize the levels and the nature of pre-service Chemistry teachers' reflections in a public university in Southern Brazil. For this, autoscopies of the pre-service teachers' microteachings were conducted in a supervised internship discipline. Data were collected through an open questionnaire and with the autoscopies of their microteachings. The analytical procedures were performed according to Content Analysis, from which the results show that the pre-service teachers engaged in three distinct levels of reflection: technical descriptions, deliberate reflections and critical reflections when thinking about their own microteaching experiences. By analysing the nature of the reflections, six categories emerged; reflections on: class planning; their teaching; the objectives; personal aspects; the autoscopy; and the students. The research results showed a low incidence of critical reflections, presenting the possible difficulty pre-service teachers had in this level of reflection. The Reflective Intervention proved to be useful for promoting reflections of the three levels of reflection, especially level 2 reflections, which consists of deliberate reflections. The results and analyses of this study contribute to the research in reflective teacher education in science, specifically in regards to a greater understanding of the levels and nature of pre-service teachers' reflections and the use of reflective interventions as an approach to promote critical and deliberate reflections in science teacher education.
Keywords: autoscopy, reflection level, reflection nature, science teacher education.

Authors: Friyatmi Friyatmi , Mardapi Djemari , Haryanto Haryanto
Published: April 2020

The development of the economics HOTS test that combines critical thinking skills, problem-solving, and critical thinking are essential to meet the challenges of the 21st century life skills. The combination of these thinking skills in the HOT test will help teachers to diagnose students' strengths and weaknesses. However, it could interfere with the accuracy of the measurement results if analyzed using IRT in a single analysis. The Multidimensional Item Response Theory (MIRT) resolved the accuracy of the measurement issues. This research aimed to develop the economics HOTS test to estimate the student’s abilities in higher order thinking skills using the MIRT. The samples were 750 high school students selected from fourteen high schools in West Sumatera, Indonesia. The data were collected using tests which calibrated through the simple-structure MIRT model using R studio. The test reliability was calculated based on coefficients Alpha and test information function. The results show MIRT offers accurate measurement in estimating multidimensional test parameters. The item had a moderate average multidimensional discriminant and difficulty, while the students had a moderate HOTS ability. Their ability to think creatively was lower than critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. The test was proven to be reliable with coefficients Alpha of 0.81, it yielded a high-test information function of the 4.0124, and a low measurement error of 0.4992. It is suitable to be tested on students who have moderate abilities in problem-solving and critical thinking, but with high creative thinking ability. Keywords: HOTS, critical thinking, creative thinking, problem solving, MIRT.

Published: April 2020

This survey explored the level and types of anxiety expressed by Indonesia students in writing in English as a foreign language anxiety across gender and educational levels. To this end, 221 foreign language (FL) students from three levels of educations, i.e. lower-secondary school, upper-secondary school and university, were surveyed on voluntary basis where they were asked to complete 22 items of a Second Language Writing Anxiety Inventory (SLWAI) questionnaire. Two statistical analyses, Rasch Analysis and ANOVA, were performed to examine the quantitative data. The findings showed that all students experienced writing anxiety in FL learning, many experiencing a moderate level of anxiety. Furthermore, students’ writing anxiety was not influenced by gender and educational levels. Indeed, students across all education levels reported experiencing somatic anxiety, avoidance behaviour and cognitive anxiety, with avoidance behaviour being the most common form of anxiety. In conclusion, it is recommended that helping students to develop a positive perception of their FL writing is crucial in addition to helping them develop their writing skills. Keywords: foreign language anxiety (FLA), foreign language (FL) learning, Rasch model, writing anxiety.

Authors: Ozuna Beltrán Altayra Geraldine , Nuñez Ramírez Marco Alberto , Vázquez Jiménez Imelda Lorena , Velarde Flores Cecilia Lorena
Published: April 2020

Behavioral economics has tried to explain the economic and financial decisions of the individuals. It has been used to understand the economic perceptions and attitudes of vulnerable groups; however, for indigenous peoples, especially in Latin America, there are unresolved issues. Thus, from an intercultural perspective, this research examines the association between the economic attitude and the perception of poverty through the comparison of a sample of intercultural college students from different ethnic groups in Mexico. For this reason, a quantitative, descriptive and correlational research was carried out with a non-experimental design from a sample of 207 intercultural college students. Two research questions were raised, the questions were tested by Pearson correlation and linear regression. Attribution theory was analyzed to assess the association between the economic attitude and the perception of poverty in intercultural students. It was found that the economic attitude is related to the perception of poverty, because the students presented attitudes of financial optimism oriented towards the structural causes of poverty. Consequently, the model of an intercultural university could benefit the development of indigenous communities, through a pedagogy oriented towards the creation of significant economic attitudes. Keywords: behavioral economics, intercultural college students, financial optimism, perceptions of poverty.

The genetic parameters, characters association and path coefficient analysis between yield and yield components of 32 exotic and local hybrid maize genotypes were studied at Plant Breeding division, Regional Agricultural Research Station (RARS), Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI), Rahmatpur, Barisahl during rabi 2015 to 2016, following Alpha Lattice Design with three replications. All the characters showed significant differences among the genotypes except cob length indicating their wide genetic variation. The highest genotypic co-efficient of variation (11.48) observed in yield and lowest (1.72) was found in days to maturity. All of the characters exhibited moderate to high heritability in broad sense (h2b) coupled with a wide range of genetic advance and genetic advance in percentage of mean. Heritability ranged from 19.21 to 86.79 for cob length and thousand seed weight, respectively. Yield had a significant positive correlation with cob length, cob diameter, number of seeds per cob and number of rows per cob. Days to tasseling and number of seeds per cob make highest positive contribution toward yield. While, days to silking and ear height had highest negative direct effect on yield. The results indicated that ear height, number of rows per cob, thousand seeds weight and number of seeds per cob could be considered as selection criteria in maize breeding program.

Published: April 2020

The performance of hematological tests deteriorates with the increase in the length of sample preservation. Therefore it has been an issue to characterize the maximum permissible period spent between blood collection and measurement to have the acceptable test report. From this view point, a study was undertaken to know about the effect of preservation length on complete blood count (CBC) in rat of Long Evans strain. A total of 30 samples were collected from 10 apparently healthy rats aged between 45-48 days and the blood samples were kept in commercial test tubes treated with EDTA. The test tubes containing whole blood samples were divided into three different groups based on preservation length and were allowed to keep at 4ºC for three different lengths of time viz. 2 hours, 4 hours and 6 hours until analysis. The samples were then analyzed for their complete blood count (TEC, TLC, Hb, PCV, DLC, Absolute Leukocyte Count, Red Cell Indices, RDW-SD, RDWCV, Platelet, MPV, PCT and PDW) using Sysmex XT-1800i auto hematological analyzer. Result showed that no significant change in CBC with the variation in preservation length. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that blood samples can be preserved for as long as 6 hours to have the same report obtainable when the samples are preserved at 4ºC in refrigerated condition for 2 or 4 hours.

Published: April 2020

Cancer is predicted to be a progressively vital reason behind morbidity and mortality in the next few decades, in all regions of the world. In Bangladesh, about 150781 new cancer cases occur in 2018 and caused about 108137 deaths. Stomach and colon cancer have 6.3% and 2% of the total cancer deaths in Bangladesh. However, to the best of knowledge, no study has been conducted in Bangladesh on the survival probabilities of stomach and colon cancer patients. Therefore, we aimed to conduct a study on the survival probabilities of stomach and colon cancer patients with respect to sex, age, and body mass index. Only sixty-five patients with stomach or colon cancer from the eight divisional cities in Bangladesh were observed. A non-parametric, Kaplan-Meier product limit estimate for survival probabilities was utilized in this study. Less median survival time for female patients (22 months) than for males (31 months) was found. Almost similar patterns were observed for patients older than 45 years compared to younger patients and overweight patients. Taken together, this study suggests that male, younger and healthy weight patients’ survival probabilities are higher than female, older and overweight patients respectively. To avoid these kinds of diseases and increase survival probabilities, we should always take a balanced diet and doing exercise regularly to keep a healthy weight. Government and non-government organizations need to take proper steps to create awareness levels among the people as well.

Background: The emergence of AmpC beta-lactamase producing Enterobacter cloacae becomes a serious nosocomial menace due to wider resistance. The study aimed to know the existence of these superbugs in the hospital settings and to report the current trends in their antibiotic resistance.

Methods: We chose a tertiary care pediatric hospital for this cross-sectional study and processed 27,000 clinical specimens for the isolation of E. cloacae using routine microbiological procedures. A total number of 96 E. cloacae isolates from various sources were screened for AmpC production with cefoxitin (30 μg) and confirmed by inhibitor based technique. The antibacterial drug resistance studied against various groups of antibiotics in vitro.

Results : Boronic acid inhibitor based method revealed 63 (65.6%) pathogens as AmpC beta-lactamase producing E. cloacae. Most of the infected patients with AmpC producing E. cloacae were neonates (34; 54.0%) and infants (11; 17.5%). The primary source of AmpC producing E. cloacae was blood (43; 68.3%), and they were frequently distributed in the neonatal nursery unit (33; 52.4%) and medical ward (13; 20.6%). All of these bugs showed a high level of resistance (100%) against the co-amoxiclav and cephalosporin group.The organisms exhibited less resistance to levofloxacin, imipenem and colistin sulphate as 23 (36.5%), 20 (31.7%) and 17 (27.0%), respectively.

Conclusion: The consistent emerging threat of Amp C harbouring E. cloacae could disseminate AmpC genes in other genera of the bacteria which lead to the therapeutic failure and leave the doctors with limited treatment options of levofloxacin, imipenem and colistin sulphate.

Objective: Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) has been identified as a risk for atherosclerosis and Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and association between hypothyroidism or subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) and lipid parameters, anthropometric data and the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients awaiting Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery (CABG) from a selected center.

Method: A cross sectional analytical study was carried out amony patients awaiting CABG in a selected center. Thyroid profile (enzyme immunoassay method), lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)], C- reactive protein (CRP) (immunoturbidimetric method) were determined and the Gensini score calculated. Lipid parameters and details of current medication were obtained from the medical records and anthropometric data were measured.

Results: From a total of 102 patients 3% were on treatment for hypothyroidism and 15% had subclinical hypothyroidism. A significantly high (p= 0.04) percentage of SCH patients (75%) were dyslipidemic. There were no significant differences observed in lipid profiles and Lp(a) among SCH and euthyroid patients when the total sample or dyslipidemic sample was considered. However, a significantly high percentage (58%, p<0.05) of SCH patients on statins had a higher level of low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLc) compared to euthyroid dyslipidemic patients. A significant negative (p< 0.05) correlation was observed between thyroid stimulating hormone concentration and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (r= -0.67) in SCH group. No significant differences were observed in anthropometric data, CRP or Gensini score of SCH and euthyroid patients with CAD.

Conclusion: The prevalence of dyslipidemia among SCH patients with CAD was significantly high. The patients suffering from SCH exhibited higher levels of LDLc compared to euthyroid patients from both the total and dyslipidemic groups. SCH patients under statin treatment displayed a higher LDLc suggesting a strong association between coronary artery disease and thyroid disease.

El patrimonio histórico tiene especial necesidad de un tipo de repositorios abiertos: los catálogos digitales de museos y colecciones. La riqueza de información que atesoran estos recursos queda en muchos casos limitada a especialistas, pero su adecuada difusión mediante repositorios y agregadores digitales puede ayudar a aumentar sustancialmente su visibilidad entre distintos tipos de audiencias. Basándose en los aprendizajes de SILKNOW, un proyecto europeo dedicado a la puesta en valor del patrimonio sedero mediante herramientas digitales, este texto aboga por una mayor implicación de los museos y las instituciones del patrimonio en la difusión del conocimiento abierto.

En el debate sobre el empleo de redes sociales y/o repositorios institucionales para difundir los trabajos e investigaciones relativos al patrimonio cabe incluir una reflexión sobre los modelos 3D. La existencia de plataformas comerciales específicas para el almacenamiento, visualización interactiva y descarga (gratuita o de pago) es, hoy por hoy, una actividad pujante, siendo un claro ejemplo de ello, Sketchfab®. Frente a esta línea de acción, los repositorios institucionales, así como los agregadores (como es el caso de Europeana) también están dando pasos en la dirección de considerar este tipo de documentos y aportar funcionalidad a los usuarios para que puedan localizarlos y reutilizarlos de manera conveniente. El presente texto, expone brevemente la situación de ambas líneas y reflexiona sobre las posibilidades de utilización combinada que, a nivel interno, puede emplear una organización cultural con el fin de obtener el máximo rendimiento.
