Callogenesis in Cicer arietinum and identification of a genotype resistant to Ascochyta rabiei
Authors: BENABDESSLEM Yasmina , HACHEM Kadda , GHOMARI Samia
Published: September 2020

The chickpea (Cicer arietinum) is one of the leguminous species most appreciated by consumers in the Mediterranean basin, while being an important source of protein. Nevertheless, its crop yields are greatly limited by several biotic and abiotic stresses, the main one being Ascochyta rabiei, the causal agent of anthracnose. As traditional breeding methods have proved to be ineffective in controlling this pathogen, resorting to biotechnological methods is necessary. Therefore, in this study, the callogenic capacity of stem and leaflet explants from three genotypes of chickpea, namely ‘FLIP 84-92 C’, ‘ILC 32-97’, and ‘ILC 263’, cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium with different hormonal balances of auxins (indole-3-acetic acid [IAA] and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid [2,4-D]) and cytokinin (kinetin), was determined. For all the genotypes, high percentages of callogenesis were recorded in the different explants grown on an MS medium with 2 mg of both IAA and kinetin. Then, a patho-system of Cicer arietinum calluses with Ascochyta rabiei was investigated, followed by a histological assessment of this interaction. The presence of the fruiting bodies of the pathogen was revealed in the calluses of the ‘ILC 32-97’ and ‘ILC 263’ genotypes. Notably, the latter showed a high sensitivity to the pathogen, as indicated by an abundance of pycnidia in its tissues. As for the ‘FLIP 84-92 C’ genotype, the histological sections showed a total absence of inter- and intracellular fruiting bodies of the pathogen in the callus tissues. Therefore, this genotype was considered as resistant to Ascochyta rabiei.

Significance Statement

Unlike other noncommunicable diseases such as coronary disease and cancer, few new effective treatments have been developed for kidney failure or CKD in recent years. This retrospective cohort study included 548,609 people in Alberta, Canada with an incident noncommunicable disease, including those with kidney failure on renal replacement (KF-RRT) or severe CKD, who were diagnosed in 2004 through 2015. The authors found that patients with CKD and KF-RRT experienced secular reductions in mortality and mean annual days in the hospital at 1 and 5 years comparable with those experienced by patients with other common noncommunicable diseases, including myocardial infarction, diabetes, and certain malignancies. This contradicts the commonly held perception that outcomes associated with CKD or kidney failure have improved more slowly than those for other major noncommunicable diseases.

Background

Few new treatments have been developed for kidney failure or CKD in recent years, leading to perceptions of slower improvement in outcomes associated with CKD or kidney failure than for other major noncommunicable diseases.

Methods

Our retrospective cohort study included 548,609 people with an incident noncommunicable disease, including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, various cancers, and severe CKD or kidney failure treated with renal replacement (KF-RRT), treated in Alberta, Canada, 2004–2015. For each disease, we assessed presence or absence of 8 comorbidities; we also compared secular trends in relative (compared to a referent year of 2004) and absolute risks of mortality and mean annual days in the hospital associated with each disease after 1 year and 5 years.

Results

Comorbidities increased significantly in number over time for all noncommunicable diseases except diabetes, and increased most rapidly for CKD and KF-RRT. Significant but relatively small reductions over time in the risk ratio of mortality at 1 year occurred for nearly all noncommunicable diseases. Secular trends in the absolute risk of mortality were similar; CKD and KF-RRT had a relatively favorable ranking at 1 year. Breast cancer, KF-RRT, diabetes, and colorectal cancer displayed the largest relative reductions in number of hospital days at 1 year. Significant absolute reductions in the number of hospital days were observed for both KF-RRT and CKD; the former had the highest absolute reduction among all noncommunicable diseases. Results were similar at 5 years.

Conclusions

We observed secular reductions in mortality and annual hospital days at 1 year and 5 years among incident patients with KF-RRT and severe CKD, as well as several other common noncommunicable diseases.
Comparison of the IUCN and the National Biodiversity (Noah's Ark) Database
Authors: BİLER Levent , BİKRİÇ Seda
Published: September 2020

This study aimed to compare the IUCN and The National Biodiversity (Noah's Ark) Data of plant and terrestrial animals (mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish). When the number of plant taxa is compared, it is seen that the difference between the two databases is very high. The main reason for this difference is that the plant species are not thoroughly evaluated in the IUCN. Also, there are differences in animal species. One possible reason is that marine species have not been evaluated in Noah's Ark Database. Another possible reason is that as a result of researchers' taxonomic studies, some species are combined or separated. Elimination of the difference between these databases will provide a more accurate evaluation and interpretation.

A Tale of Two Tales: Irony, Identity and the Fictions of Anthony Cronin and Brian O’Nolan
Authors: Sharkey Rodney
Published: September 2020

This essay examines two novels by Anthony Cronin in order to argue that a tendency towards either proliferation or subtraction determines late Irish modernist aesthetics. Having established that the repetition of material in Cronin's texts indicates a tendency towards subtraction, the essay positions Brian O'Nolan's work within a modernist tradition that favours proliferation, and concludes by arguing that the role irony plays in successful proliferation is problematic for a socialist literary aesthetic.

Published: September 2020

Analyze the morphological characteristics of fourth molars from non-syndromic patients using computed microtomography (microCT). Five human fourth molars (case group) and other three third molars (control group) were obtain from Biobank of UFPR Dentistry School. The teeth were submitted to macroscopic and microCT analysis. Sample characteristics: 60% of the teeth from the lower arch, mainly from the right lower arch (40%). The results showed that eighty percent of the teeth were impacted and all of them presented normal morphology. The microCT revealed that one of the fourth molars had hypercementosis. Concerning the root canal anatomy, all of the fourth molars studied had just one principal root canal. Four teeth had one collateral canal that ended at the lateral face of the root. The volume average of root canal, dentine and enamel were respectively 9.27 mm3, 122.64 mm3 and 74.71 mm3. The averages between these variables in third molars were 46.98 mm3, 473.25 mm3 and 198.34 mm3, respectively. Proportionally, the volume of the fourth molars was five times less than the third molars, but the dentine and enamel volume were, respectively, 3.8 and 2.7 times less than third molars. The fourth molar teeth usually showed only one principal root canal and it can be associated with other alterations, such as hypercementosis. Although the fourth molars were smaller, the proportion of enamel volume is bigger than third molar in comparison.
Участие некоммерческих организаций в социальном предпринимательстве: влияние акселерационной деятельности (на примере акселератора ЦРНО 2015–2017 гг.)
Authors: Москвина Анастасия Юрьевна
Published: September 2020

Многие российские НКО занимаются деятельностью, приносящей доход, рассматривая ее как источник финансовых ресурсов для своих программ и уставных целей. Хотя закон о социальном предпринимательстве исключает некоммерческие организации из этого поля, практика показывает, что многие предпринимательские проекты в этом секторе могут стать реальными социальными предприятиями. Большую роль в развитии предпринимательских проектов некоммерческих организаций играют т. н. акселераторы. Статья посвящена исследованию результативности Социального акселератора ресурсного центра НКО в Санкт-Петербурге в 2015–2017 гг. В статье  рассмотрено его влияние на развитие социально-предпринимательской деятельности НКО. Исследование показало, что участие организаций и инициативных групп в акселерационной программе развивает социально-предпринимательское мышление, помогает рационализации миссии, профессионализирует деятельность на личном и организационном уровнях; становится причиной создания дружественной экосистемы поддержки и развития; помогает диверсифицировать источники ресурсов и создавать устойчивые бизнес-модели. Результаты исследования подтверждают, что начало предпринимательской деятельности является вызовом для НКО и заставляет их перестраивать внутренние процессы, искать новый баланс социальной миссии и бизнес-подхода. Независимо от того, стал ли предпринимательский проект НКО рентабельным, его запуск ведет к формированию предпринимательского поведения (готовности к риску, инновациям, про-активности), что обеспечивает большую успешность в привлечении средств из традиционных для НКО источников: частных и корпоративных пожертвований, грантов. В отличие от традиционных бизнес-организаций, участники акселератора демонстрируют неконкурентное поведение, стремление объединяться для неформального общения и реализации совместных проектов, образуя сообщество взаимной поддержки. Даже при отказе от развития предпринимательского проекта, происходит профессиональное развитие лидеров и команд. Это способствует карьерному росту сотрудников как внутри организации, так и вне ее, а иногда – выходу из организации для создания собственного проекта социального предпринимательства.

Bladder cancer is one of the most common cancers among men in industrialized countries and on the global level incidence and mortality rates are increasing. In spite of progress in surgical treatment and chemotherapy, the prognosis remains poor for patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Therefore, there is a great need for the development of novel therapeutic approaches. The human amniotic membrane (hAM) is a multi-layered membrane that comprises the innermost part of the placenta. It has unique properties that make it suitable for clinical use, such as the ability to promote wound healing and decrease scarring, low immunogenicity, and immunomodulatory, antimicrobial and anticancer properties. This study aimed to investigate the effect of i) hAM-derived cells and ii) hAM scaffolds on the growth dynamics, proliferation rate, and invasive potential of muscle-invasive bladder cancer T24 cells. Our results show that 24h and 48h of co-culturing T24 cells with hAM-derived cells (at 1:1 and 1:4 ratios) diminished the proliferation rate of T24 cells. Furthermore, when seeded on hAM scaffolds, namely 1) epithelium of hAM (e-hAM), 2) basal lamina of hAM (denuded; d-hAM) and 3) stroma of hAM (s-hAM), the growth dynamic of T24 cells was altered and proliferation was reduced, even more so by the e-hAM scaffolds. Importantly, despite their muscle-invasive potential, the T24 cells did not disrupt the basal lamina of hAM scaffolds. Furthermore, we observed a decrease in the expression of N-cadherin, Snail and Slug in T24 cells grown on hAM scaffolds and individual T24 cells even expressed epithelial markers E-cadherin and occludin. Our study brings new knowledge on basic mechanisms of hAM affecting bladder carcinogenesis and the results serve as a good foundation for further research into the potential of hAM to serve as a novel bladder cancer treatment.

Authors: Thais Salles Thais , Alexandrino Medeiros Eduardo
Published: September 2020

Objectives: To identify factors associated with hospital admission and mortality within the first 30 days after enrolment in an outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy (OPAT) program, also analysing adequacy of the treatment regimen and clinical outcomes. Patients and methods: This was a retrospective cohort study conducted between October 2016 and June 2017 in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. Variables related to hospital admission and mortality were subjected to bivariate analysis, and those with a P<0.05 were subjected to multivariate analysis as risk factors. Results: We evaluated 276 patients, of whom 80.5% were ≥60 years of age and 69.9% had more than one comorbidity. Of the patients evaluated, 41.3% had pneumonia and 35.1% had a urinary tract infection. The most common etiological agent, isolated in 18 (31.6%) cases, was Klebsiella pneumoniae, and 13 (72,2%) strains were carbapenem resistant. The OPAT was in accordance with the culture results in 76.6% of the cases and with the institutional protocols in 76.4%. The majority (64.5%) of the patients were not admitted, and a cure or clinical improvement was achieved in 78.6%. Multivariate analysis showed that, within the first 30 days after enrolment, the absence of a physician office visit was a predictor of hospital admission (P<0.001) and mortality (P=0.006). Conclusions: This study demonstrated the viability of OPAT in elderly patients with pulmonary or urinary tract infections in an area with a high prevalence of multidrug-resistant bacteria and that a post-discharge physician office visit is protective against hospital admission and mortality.

Strategic Upgrade of the Master’s Programme “Mediation in Education” in Digital Transformation Context
Authors: Egle Evgeny S. , Ivanov Nikita A.
Published: September 2020

The “conflict-generating capacity” of the modern world causes the need for trained mediators specializing in the productive negotiation technology and conflict management in both real and virtual domains of social relations. As a rule, currently existing mediator training programmes do not consider the intercultural contexts of the conflicts, despite their importance in the volatility and uncertainty of the digital medium. The proposed upgrade of the Master’s programme for future mediators relies upon the polyparadigmatic methodology encompassing the system and constructive, culturological, and situation approaches. Connected to the digital transformation of the society, the employment of the new model of mediators’ training in the Master’s programme of Siberian Federal University is based on the development of a networking partnership between the professional mediators’ associations and the universities of Kazakhstan and Siberia. The article elaborates on the mechanisms of providing electronic support of the Master’s programme intended to expand the teaching efficiency of e-learning in the Master’s training at the Federal University. It also presents the organizational and pedagogical conditions together with the methods of training future mediators by means of the electronic media of the university, social media and open education platforms. It provides the empirical data confirming the efficiency of the Master’s programme electronic support system developed and implemented by the authors. The article also presents the results of a psychological and pedagogical experiment in the assessment of personal qualities and professional competences of the future mediators and the results of the Master’s programme review by practicing mediators and the academic community with regard to the Target Competence Model 2025. With the results of the tests and implementation of the new practice-oriented Master’s programme of SibFU, it is now possible to develop a new culture of social interaction within a digital environment based on cooperation, mutual understanding and dialogue, constructive behaviour in a conflict

Published: September 2020

The article is devoted to the study of digital competence as a component of work activity of a mediator specialising in education. The article analyses the professional standards of a mediator in Russia and abroad, the work duties of a mediator in educational organizations. The authors have developed a model of digital competence of a mediator in education, which includes the basic and professional level, represented by three spheres: online mediation, conflict prevention in the virtual environment; informational and psychological security. Empirical research has been carried out to identify indicators of digital competence of mediation specialists in education who work in the Siberian region. There have been determined deficiencies and dependencies of the indicators in terms of spheres and components of digital competence. In order to develop the digital competence of mediation specialists in education, the authors propose ways to improve the training of master’s students at the Siberian Federal University. The results presented in the article are supported by the charity fund of the V. Potanin’s program “Practically oriented master’s program ‘Mediation in Education’ with the strategic partnership of universities and professional communities of mediators from Siberia and Kazakhstan”

The trilingual strategy in the context of state language policy of the Republic of Kazakhstan predetermined the research needs to specify the functioning of English language as well as its spreading, status and role in the communicative and language space of Kazakhstan. It is the purpose of the article to investigate the specified functioning of English language in the student’s micro society under the conditions of Kazakhstani polylingualism. The research is based on the concepts of sociological and interactional (social induced) communicative and theoretical sociolinguistics. The student’s microcommunity with peculiar linguistic and behavioral characteristics is meant to be the object of research. There are applied the principal empirical method of obtaining knowledge for pedagogical and sociological research that is sample-based questioning and mathematical and statistical analysis. The main results involve the analysis of the empirical data obtained during questioning. While researching the authors revealed the specifics of English language’s functioning in the student’s microcommunity that initially caused by individual and personal motivation of the native speakers. In the conclusion the authors deduce that specifics of English language’s functioning in the student’s microcommunity is determined by the unique language situation in Kazakhstan due to cooperative functioning of two powerful languages that is the Kazakh and Russian in the united communicative space. The authors state that communicative function of English language in the student’s environment at the present stage is generally realized in the academic sphere (study and science) and more rarely in the daily sphere of communication
Subjective Well-Being and Conflicting Social Identities in the Frontier Regions of Russia
Authors: Nemirovskaya Anna V.
Published: September 2020

This study analyses how subjective well-being indicators and territorial social identities vary in the Russian frontier and core regions. It is assumed that the frontier history of settlement and border location of the regions has an impact on various socio-cultural and socio-political features of its communities, thus shaping the specific territorial social identities of people living on the front lines of Russia. These identities might be in conflicting relations, especially when taken as a factor for shaping specific public attitudes and moods, in particular, satisfaction with life. Based on the surveys in four border, or frontier and two central, or core, regions, conducted in 2016 (total n of respondent = 5000), the paper presents an explanatory model for life satisfaction in a comparative aspect, where different factors of socio-economic, socio-demographic, psychological, attitudinal, and cultural nature are considered. The impact of different territorial social identities on life satisfaction in the frontier and central regions was revealed. For both groups of the regional samples, the assessment of the state of affairs in the region, and the country as well, demonstrated a stable positive effect on life satisfaction, as well as the factors of locus of control, income group, and economic optimism. The predictor of social cohesion appeared to be significant only for frontier regions of Russia, in line with the classical concepts of the frontier. At the same time, age and religiosity factors predicted life satisfaction in the core regions only. This study contributes to the research on the border and frontier areas, as well as regional specifics of Russian regions, representing it as a vast and heterogeneous in terms of socio-cultural and socio-economic division country

Pathogenesis of adenomyosis
Authors: Orekhova Ekaterina K.
Published: September 2020

Adenomyosis is a common benign condition, often diagnosed in women of reproductive age with dysmenorrhea and polymenorrhea, miscarriage and infertility. Previously, it was believed that the pathological process was associated with intrauterine interventions, parturition or endometriosis diagnosed by histological examination as the gold standard. Currently, adenomyosis is perceived as an independent disease, the etiology and pathogenesis of which are based on complex molecular, genomic and immune processes, also occurring in women without a burdened maternal obstetric and gynecological history. Modern non-invasive diagnostic methods, such as ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging, have high sensitivity and specificity and are successfully used for diagnosis of adenomyosis. One of the main initial morphological and functional signs of the disease is a change in the so-called J-zone (junctional zone, JZ), which is the transitional part of the myometrium. Its subendometrial layer has unique structural organization, immunohistochemical structure and functional activity, which remains not fully understood. Data on the effect of adenomyosis on the course and outcome of pregnancy are mixed. This article presents a literature review of world studies on the etiology, pathogenesis and diagnosis of adenomyosis and its effect on fertility.
Iglesia de San José de Anchieta-Pateo do Collegio
Authors: Seegerer Christian Michael
Published: September 2020

Pateo do Collegio es el lugar donde se fundó São Paulo en 1554. Los primeros edificios —una universidad y una iglesia— presentaban arquitectura colonial en el siglo XVII, y la iglesia en el siglo XVIII fue abandonada después de la expulsión de los jesuitas del país. Demolido a fines del siglo XIX, a principios del siglo XX fue nuevamente propiedad de los jesuitas y se construyó un nuevo edificio. En 2009 hubo una importante renovación de sus lugares de culto, realizada por Claudio Pastro. La disposición de los elementos es inusual y, sin embargo, conveniente. Pastro materializó la influencia del Concilio Vaticano II en el arte y la arquitectura, siendo una de las voces autorizadas en Brasil que fomentó experiencias paradigmáticas. El estudio de esta reforma es el objeto de este artículo: analizar el proyecto elaborado y ejecutado, identificar las soluciones proyectuales y registrar con rigor la contribución de esta arquitectura contemporánea.
‘Remodelar y ampliar una iglesia antigua no es necesariamente un atentado’
Authors: Alves da Cunha João
Published: September 2020

La renovación pastoral que el Concilio Vaticano II trajo a la liturgia se convirtió en un programa al que los arquitectos buscaron responder con nuevas formas y soluciones. En la Diócesis de Lisboa, este trabajo fue dirigido por el Secretariado de las Nuevas Iglesias del Patriarcado (SNIP), una pequeña oficina técnica creada por el Cardenal Cerejeira en 1961 para apoyar la planificación y construcción de las docenas de iglesias y capillas que se necesitaban construir en toda la diócesis. Pero su trabajo no se limitaría a los nuevos edificios. Como recordó el SNIP en 1968, en un momento de renovación también se hizo necesario remodelar las antiguas iglesias, adaptándolas a las necesidades y demandas desencadenadas por la Reforma litúrgica conciliar. A través de cinco trabajos realizados por SNIP entre 1965 y 1985, se pretende revelar las opciones formales y programáticas adoptadas por esta oficina en sus intervenciones en el patrimonio de la diócesis de Lisboa.
Estética neocatecumenal y adecuación litúrgica
Authors: Diéguez Melo María
Published: September 2020

El desarrollo y codificación de una estética propia en el seno del Camino Neocatecumenal ha motivado la construcción de nuevos templos siguiendo los paradigmas propuestos por Kiko Argüello, pero también la intervención en iglesias ya existentes siguiendo el esquema centralidad-axialidad característico de las propuestas neocatecumenales. Dichas intervenciones han generado adaptaciones provisionales o adecuaciones litúrgicas definitivas, especialmente tras el trabajo del arquitecto Antonio Ábalos en la parroquia de San Pedro el Real de Madrid y los trabajos de Maurizio Bergamo y Mattia del Prete en Italia.En el presente texto se analizarán una serie de adecuaciones litúrgicas realizadas en iglesias preconciliares muy distintas en su estilo. Aunque todas estas intervenciones siguen el esquema de distribución de focos celebrativos y asamblea propuestos por la estética neocatecumenal, observaremos una doble vía de intervención que opta por la similitud estilística con el entorno arquitectónico existente o bien por la repetición de modelos utilizados en iglesias de nueva planta.

This article shows the importance of teaching conceptions of preschool teachers about reading in English language, and also how these notions might influence their respective teaching practices. Moreover, a set of variables (categories) regarding to reading teaching are determined for this text to be understood properly. On the other hand, this study has taken the qualitative paradigm as a reference and it has also diferenbeen oriented by the ethnography as a type of research; likewise, several results are presented due to some information gathering techniques (surveys, focus groups and interviews). In the research that assisted this article some institutions participated: The Luis Amigó Catholic University from Medellín, Colombia, the Maule University from Chile and the Ibero-American Network from Pedagogy. Finally, among the most meaningful results, it is highlighted the lack of offer about courses that make emphasis on English teaching in early ages for preschool teachers, as well as the stress on teaching pronunciation rather than comprehension of the message in English for children.
