Imigração e identidade nacional francesa: conflitualidades na esfera pública
Authors: De  Souza Paes Paula
Published: January 2018

O artigo apresenta o processo de institucionalização e legitimação do “problema” da Imigração na França. Para isso, analisamos um caso específico de violência ocorrido em 2010 na periferia da cidade de Grenoble, envolvendo a morte de um descendente de imigrante. Pretendemos compreender a visibilidade dada ao tema imigração, destacando os atores e as questões relativas à publicização dessa questão societal. Através de elementos históricos, demonstraremos como o tratamento público da imigração, a partir principalmente dos anos 80, caracteriza-se por sua localização nas periferias, como se os problemas tidos como fruto do processo migratório fossem encontrados somente nas zonas urbanas sensíveis. Enfim, salientamos como a comunicação pública em matéria de imigração contribui para a constituição de um consenso sobre os aspectos desse problema.

From data sharing to data publishing
Authors: Poline Jean-Baptiste
Published: January 2018

Data sharing, i.e. depositing data in research community accessible repositories, is not becoming as rapidly widespread across the life science research community as hoped or expected. I consider the sociological and cultural context of research and lay out why the community should instead move to data publishing with a focus on neuroscience data, and outline practical steps that can be taken to realize this goal.
The effect of social contact on the performance and behaviour of young dairy calves
Authors: Bolt SL
Published: January 2018

Maternal and social isolation have been shown to have detrimental effects on behaviour that persist into adulthood in a range of species. In the UK, dairy calves are separated from their dam almost immediately, and 60% are individually reared during their first weeks of life. The cost of rearing heifers is thought to account for 10% of milk production costs. Improving performance of rearing could have a considerable effect on dairy industry profitability. The aim of this review is to look at the effects of individual housing of dairy calves and to consider the application of social housing on farm.
Oral electrolyte therapy for diarrhoeic calves — how to pick the right electrolyte product
Authors: Mueller Kristina R
Published: January 2018

Oral rehydration therapy is a proven and cost-effective treatment for calves suffering from diarrhoea. The key components of an efficient oral electrolyte product are adequate concentrations of sodium, chloride and potassium, an energy source like glucose or glycine to facilitate water absorption, and sufficient concentrations of alkalinising substances to correct metabolic acidosis. A thorough understanding of the composition of commercial oral electrolyte solutions is important for practitioners to make informed treatment recommendations. Continued milk feeding is another cornerstone in the resuscitation of diarrhoeic calves since withholding milk can exacerbate dehydration and malnourishment.
Increased sclerostin associated with stress fracture of the third metacarpal bone in the Thoroughbred racehorse
Authors: Hopper N. , Singer E. , Henson F.
Published: January 2018

Objectives

The exact aetiology and pathogenesis of microdamage-induced long bone fractures remain unknown. These fractures are likely to be the result of inadequate bone remodelling in response to damage. This study aims to identify an association of osteocyte apoptosis, the presence of osteocytic osteolysis, and any alterations in sclerostin expression with a fracture of the third metacarpal (Mc-III) bone of Thoroughbred racehorses.

Methods

A total of 30 Mc-III bones were obtained; ten bones were fractured during racing, ten were from the contralateral limb, and ten were from control horses. Each Mc-III bone was divided into a fracture site, condyle, condylar groove, and sagittal ridge. Microcracks and diffuse microdamage were quantified. Apoptotic osteocytes were measured using TUNEL staining. Cathepsin K, matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13), HtrA1, and sclerostin expression were analyzed.

Results

In the fracture group, microdamage was elevated 38.9% (sd 2.6) compared with controls. There was no difference in the osteocyte number and the percentage of apoptotic cells between contralateral limb and unraced control; however, there were significantly fewer apoptotic cells in fractured samples (p < 0.02). Immunohistochemistry showed that in deep zones of the fractured samples, sclerostin expression was significantly higher (p < 0.03) than the total number of osteocytes. No increase in cathepsin K, MMP-13, or HtrA1 was present.

Conclusion

There is increased microdamage in Mc-III bones that have fractured during racing. In this study, this is not associated with osteocyte apoptosis or osteocytic osteolysis. The finding of increased sclerostin in the region of the fracture suggests that this protein may be playing a key role in the regulation of bone microdamage during stress adaptation.

Abstract. Herawati VE, Hartoko A, Suminto. 2012. The suitability of Segara Anakan waters, Cilacap, Central Java as cultivation area of Polymesoda erosa based on primary productivity using satellite image. Bonorowo Wetlands 2: 41-51. Segara Anakan waters, Cilacap, Central Java, is a natural habitat of totok shells (Polymesoda erosa) of high economic value. However, the sustainability of these protein sources is threatened due to habitat degradation and over-harvesting. This study aims to (i) analyze the suitability of Segara Anakan Lagoon to cultivate the toktok shells, as a conservation effort, based on the aspect of primary productivity and chlorophyll-a; (ii) to analyze the suitability of Segara Anakan waters to cultivate the totok shells based on field data and SPOT satellite image data, i.e., chlorophyll a, water surface temperature, total suspended solids, pH, dissolved oxygen, salinity, as well as nitrate and phosphate content. The basic concept of this research is combining SPOT satellite image analysis and direct field measurement of some primary productivity parameters in Segara Anakan waters to know the suitability for thokthok shells cultivation. Based on scoring and suitability level, stations 1 and 3 (in the western estuary of Segara Anakan lagoon) are " Suitable on condition" (Sesuai Bersyarat) for the cultivation of totok shells, covering an area of 326,035039 ha. While stations 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7 (other locations) are " Not Suitable" (Tidak Sesuai) for the cultivation of totok shells, covering an area of 557,057573 ha.

Published: January 2018

Purulent myositis is an acute, intramuscular bacterial infection involving abscess formation most commonly affecting the quadriceps, hamstring and gluteal muscles. We present a case of extensive purulent myositis of the thigh and lower leg caused by bowel perforation below the peritoneal reflection secondary to rectal cancer. Cases of lower limb and perineal purulent myositis should raise suspicion of rectal perforation and should prompt investigations to exclude rectal malignancy.
Motorcyclists and pillion passengers with open lower-limb fractures: a study using TARN data 2007–2014
Authors: Hay-David AGC , Stacey T , Pallister I ,   on behalf of the Trauma Audit and Research Network Research Committee, University of Manchester
Published: January 2018

Introduction

We aimed to identify population demographics of motorcyclists and pillion passengers with isolated open lower-limb fractures, to ascertain the impact of the revised 2009 British Orthopaedic Association/British Association of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons joint standards for the management of open fractures of the lower limb (BOAST 4), in terms of time to skeletal stabilisation and soft-tissue coverage, and to observe any impact on patient movement.

Methods

Retrospective cohort data was collected by the Trauma Audit and Research Network (TARN). A longitudinal analysis was performed between two timeframes in England (pre-and post-BOAST 4 revision): 2007–2009 and 2010–2014.

Results

A total of 1564 motorcyclists and 64 pillion passengers were identified. Of these, 93% (1521/1628) were male. The median age for males was 30.5 years and 36.7 years for females. There was a statistically significant difference in the number of patients who underwent skeletal stabilisation (49% vs 65%, P < 0.0001), the time from injury to skeletal stabilisation (7.33 hours vs 14.3 hours, P < 0.0001) and the proportion receiving soft-tissue coverage (26% vs 43%, P < 0.0001). There was no difference in the time from injury to soft-tissue coverage (62.3 hours vs 63.7 hours, P = 0.726). The number of patients taken directly to a major trauma centre (or its equivalent) increased between the two timeframes (12.5% vs, 41%, P < 0.001).

Conclusions

Since the 2009 BOAST 4 revision, there has been no difference in the time taken from injury to soft-tissue coverage but the time from injury to skeletal stabilisation is longer. There has also been an increase in patient movement to centres offering joint orthopaedic and plastic care.
A tale of three stents: aortic stenting prior to oesophagectomy after oesophageal stents
Authors: Munro CE , Stamp GFW , Phillips AW , Griffin SM
Published: January 2018

The use of endoluminal stents to treat anastomotic leaks post oesophagogastric resection remains controversial. While some advocate stents to expedite recovery, others advise caution due to the risk of major morbidity and mortality. We describe a case of anastomotic leak following total gastrectomy for adenocarcinoma treated with a self-expanding metallic stent. Complications with the initial stent were treated with a further stent, which compromised the function of the oesophagus and eroded into the aorta, necessitating a colonic reconstruction and endovascular aortic stenting.
One Europe or None
Authors: Sakwa Richard
Published: January 2018

The European post-Cold War order assumed monist forms. Instead of the geopolitical and ideological diversity sought by Mikhail Gorbachev as he brought the Cold War to an end in the late 1980s, a type of monist cold peace was imposed in which Atlantic security institutions and ideas were consolidated. The monism was both institutional and ideational, and the two reinforced each other in a hermetic order that sought to insulate itself from critique and transformation. Russia was excluded as anything but subaltern. The post-Cold War European peace order was thus built on weak foundations, provoking a cycle of mimetic rivalry. In Russia the fateful dialectic of external challenge and domestic stultification once again operated, heightening the Kremlin’s threat perceptions. Russia’s relations with the European Union (EU) and Washington veered between the cooperative and the confrontational, until settling into a conflictual mode in 2014, as it is argued in the article.
The Russian Challenge to the European Union
Authors: E. Kanet Roger
Published: January 2018

After a decade of sporadic cooperation between newly emergent Russia and the countries of the West, differences have mounted to the point where the two sides now confront one another with alternative visions of a future Europe – especially Central and Eastern Europe – and relations that mirror some of the worst days of the Soviet-Western cold war. The central issues in the dispute include Moscow’s commitment to rebuilding ‘Greater Russia,’ the European Union (EU)’s goal of surrounding itself with stable democratic states, and the fact that these goals conflict in post-Soviet Eastern Europe and the Caucasus. The revival of the Russian economy and political system under Vladimir Putin has enabled Moscow to use various forms of coercive diplomacy, including outright military intervention, to pursue its goals. The EU’s support for democratic governances in the region is viewed in Moscow as a direct challenge to Russia’s interests and to the Russian state itself. The result has been a confrontation between the two sides, as Russia challenges the very nature of the liberal international system put into place by the EU and its U.S. allies in the post-World War II period. It is important to note that the US-Russian relationship overlaps with and contributes to the standoff in Europe.
Desafios da Política Externa Europeia no Cáucaso do Sul: Os Limites da Geopolítica de Base Normativa
Authors: Simão Licínia
Published: January 2018

Este artigo analisa as relações da União Europeia (UE) com os países do Cáucaso do Sul, Arménia, Azerbaijão e Geórgia, no âmbito da Política Europeia de Vizinhança (PEV). A análise centra-se na interação entre a exportação dos modelos de governação e normas europeias e as ambições geopolíticas e de segurança da União. O argumento central defende que a ação securitária da UE, nomeadamente na transformação positiva dos conflitos armados da região, tem sido limitada pela abordagem despolitizada que a PEV promove e que beneficiaria de uma abordagem onde a dimensão política do modelo de estabilização regional da UE fosse assumida.
Nurses' barriers when using research information in clinical decision making
Authors: Mohamed Safaa , Thabet Mona
Published: January 2018

Recently, there has been more emphasis on clinical decision making to be a cooperative process, which encompasses shared and parallel decision making with patients and health care teams. For this, nursesâ€™ clinical decision-making is a complicated process with a possibility to affect the provided quality of care and. Therefore, affect patient condition progress. Thus, it is the critical point to study the nurses' barriers to research to identify the starting point of how do nurses currently view, and apply research based information in their decision. The aim of the study is to evaluate the nurses' barriers when using research information in clinical decision making. A descriptive correlation research design was utilized. The sample was consisted of of 140 nurse participants at Minia University hospitals. One tool was used as Barriers to using research information in clinical decision making. This study revealed that the nurse participants agree on the research barriers such as lack of time, lack of organization support to use and implement insufficient nurse skills to use research, and complex nature of research. Thus it was concluded that nurses appraise the value of research utilization, but there were many factors hinder and become the barrier to them to implement research.
Firms' Strategic Leverage of Unplanned Exposure and Planned Advertising: An Analysis in the Context of Celebrity Endorsements
Authors: Derdenger Timothy P. , Li Hui , Srinivasan Kannan
Published: January 2018

Using data on advertising and sales of an innovative piece of golf equipment and the performance of its celebrity endorsers, the authors build a discrete-choice model that incorporates consumer awareness and preferences. They empirically investigate how celebrity endorsements affect consumer choices during new product introductions, the roles of planned advertising and unplanned media exposure, and how firms can strategically leverage the unplanned component. Model estimates reveal that wins in professional golf tournaments (which proxy for unplanned television exposure during weekly golf tournaments) affect awareness and that paid planned advertising impacts awareness and preferences. Focusing on Titleist equipment, counterfactual analysis demonstrates that the unplanned media exposure and planned advertising account for 22% and 24% of sales, respectively. The results also suggest that firms would benefit from coordinating the two. The planned portion should serve as a substitute for unplanned media exposure in the early stage and a complement as products age.
Traces and Representations of the U.S.-Mexico Frontera
Authors: Morrissey Katherine G.
Published: January 2018

The following was the author’s presidential address at the annual meeting of the Pacific Coast Branch, American Historical Association, in Northridge, California, on August 4, 2017. The twentieth-century visual history of the U.S.-Mexico borderlands, la frontera, offers a rich set of representations of the shared border environments. Photographs, distributed in the United States and in Mexico, allow us to trace emerging ideas about the border region and the politicized borderline. This essay explores two border visualization projects—one centered on the Mexican Revolution and the visual vocabulary of the Mexican nation and the other on the repeat photography of plant ecologists—that illustrate the simultaneous instability and power of borders.
Archives of Protection
Authors: Standfield Rachel
Published: January 2018

Aboriginal Protectorates operated in the late 1830s and 1840s in the Port Phillip District of New South Wales (later to become the colony of Victoria) in Australia and New Zealand. This article examines a small selection of the extensive archive of Port Phillip and New Zealand Protectorates to illustrate the ways that language and communication work within colonial projects to support and extend colonial authority. Examining language acquisition by Protectors, it places attitudes to and use of Indigenous languages within the context of colonialism in each site, arguing that Indigenous voices in New Zealand were co-opted, and in Port Phillip were marginalised, in the service of divergent approaches to dispossessing Indigenous peoples from their land. The article also explores glimpses of Māori or Aboriginal experiences of humanitarianism, colonisation, and dispossession captured in this archive.
Genome-Wide Screen for New Components of theDrosophila melanogasterTorso Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Pathway

Published: January 2018

Patterning of the Drosophila embryonic termini by the Torso (Tor) receptor pathway has long served as a valuable paradigm for understanding how receptor tyrosine kinase signaling is controlled. However, the mechanisms that underpin the control of Tor signaling remain to be fully understood. In particular, it is unclear how the Perforin-like protein Torso-like (Tsl) localizes Tor activity to the embryonic termini. To shed light on this, together with other aspects of Tor pathway function, we conducted a genome-wide screen to identify new pathway components that operate downstream of Tsl. Using a set of molecularly defined chromosomal deficiencies, we screened for suppressors of ligand-dependent Tor signaling induced by unrestricted Tsl expression. This approach yielded 59 genomic suppressor regions, 11 of which we mapped to the causative gene, and a further 29 that were mapped to <15 genes. Of the identified genes, six represent previously unknown regulators of embryonic Tor signaling. These include twins (tws), which encodes an integral subunit of the protein phosphatase 2A complex, and α-tubulin at 84B (αTub84B), a major constituent of the microtubule network, suggesting that these may play an important part in terminal patterning. Together, these data comprise a valuable resource for the discovery of new Tor pathway components. Many of these may also be required for other roles of Tor in development, such as in the larval prothoracic gland where Tor signaling controls the initiation of metamorphosis.

Reklamasi pantai Teluk Jakarta merupakan rencana pemerintah yang ditujukan untuk mengendalikan banjir di Kota Jakarta dan pengembangan area bisnis yang tumbuh semakin pesat. Reklamasi dilaksanakan dengan membangun tanggul raksasa sepanjang 60 km di Teluk Jakarta dan pembangunan 18 pulau kecil di depan pantai. Reklamasi pantai dapat memberikan dampak terhadap lingkungan perairan dan perikanan. Dalam rangka pelaksanaan pengelolaan perikanan berkelanjutan, maka perlu dilakukan analisis dampak reklamasi terhadap kondisi kualitas air dan perikanan di teluk Jakarta. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis dampak reklamasi terhadap kondisi kualitas air dan perikanan melalui analisis data primer dan sekunder. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa reklamasi pantai menambah tekanan terhadap kondisi lingkungan perairan yang diindikasikan oleh penurunan kecerahan perairan, salinitas dan nilai indeks keanekaragaman fitoplankton dan makrozoobenthos.  Reklamasi pantai akan menghilangkan daerah penangkapan sero, bagan tancap dan keramba kerang hijau, yang mengakibatkan terjadinya penurunan produksi ikan.  Potensi penurunan produksi ikan yang akan terjadi sekitar 82,2 ton/tahun.  Di sisi lain, bagian timur Teluk Jakarta mempunyai potensi sebagai daerah asuhan ikan dan udang.  Reklamasi pantai akan mengganggu fungsi ekologis Teluk Jakarta sebagai daerah asuhan ikan dan udang.  Reklamasi Teluk Jakarta dapat dilaksanakan dengan disertai upaya pengelolaan kawasan untuk menjaga peran dan fungsi ekologisnya.Coastal reclamation in Jakarta Bay is one of government planning as flood disaster management and business development area that has been grow very fast.  A 60 km of giant sea wall and 18 small reclamation islands in Jakarta Bay will be developed. Coastal reclamation will have an impact on environment and fisheries. In the context of sustainable fisheries management, an impact analysis of coastal reclamation on water quality and fisheries are needed. Research objectives are to analyze the coastal reclamation impact on water quality and fisheries in Jakarta Bay, through primary and secondary data analysis. Results showed that coastal reclamation adds pressure to water quality indicated by decreasing the water transparency, salinity and the value of diversity index of phytoplankton and makrozoobenthos.  Coastal reclamation will eliminate the fishing area of set net (stationary fishing gear), stationary lift net and green mussel trap nets, resulting in fish production loss.  The potential decrease of fish production is about 82,2 ton/yr .  On the other side, Jakarta Bay has a potential area of fish and shrimp nursery ground in the eastern part of the bay.  Coastal reclamation will disrupt its ecological function as nursery ground.  Reclamation of Jakarta Bay can be carried out along with area management to maintain its ecological role and function.
Effect of magnetite nanoparticles (ferroferric oxide) on discrete concrete properties

Published: January 2018

Many methods have been investigated to improve the properties of concrete. One such method involves using nanomaterials as a partial replacement of cement. The objective of the work reported in this paper was to improve the durability and mechanical properties of concrete. The utilised materials were produced using sol combustion, which is one of the most common methods used to manufacture nanomaterials. This study investigated the effects of nano-magnetic ferroferric oxide on the compressive strength, chloride ion permeation and percentage of water absorption in concrete. Rapid chloride permeability tests were conducted to determine the amount of chloride ion permeation. Five different amounts of magnetic nanoparticles (0·5, 0·75, 1, 2 and 3%) were substituted for the total cement weight. The results showed that 2% substitution of magnetic nanoparticles by weight of cement gave the best performance in terms of compressive strength, percentage water absorption and chloride ion permeation.
Diagnosis of electricity crisis and scope of wind power in Pakistan
Authors: Arshad Muhammad , O'Kelly Brendan C.
Published: January 2018

Electricity performs an integral role in the economic development and improvement in the living standard of a nation. Unfortunately, Pakistan is currently experiencing one of its worst periods of power shortages. The purpose of this paper is based on diagnosing the present electricity crisis in Pakistan and to discuss the outlook for the diffusion of wind power in the mix of established electricity generation, which relies too heavily on imported fossil fuels at the cost of precious foreign exchange. The existing electricity transmission and distribution (T&D) network has miserably failed to meet the country's requirements. Diversification of the present electricity-generation mix, with a significant increase in the contribution from exploitable wind-power potential recommended, along with upgrading and overhaul of existing power plants and the T&D infrastructure, reductions in non-technical losses and enhancing investment attractiveness (for both thermal and renewable) are some key measures likely to facilitate improved and affordable electricity supply and mitigate the current and forecasted long-term electricity supply–demand gap. Specific recommendations are presented towards overcoming identified challenges and obstacles to the harnessing of the country's abundant renewable energy resources, especially for wind power generation.
Simplified approach to the design of segmental tunnel linings
Authors: Do Ngoc Anh , Dias Daniel , Oreste Pierpaolo
Published: January 2018

A new simplified approach to the hyperstatic reaction method (HRM) for the analysis of segmental tunnel linings is introduced. The influence of segmental joints on the lining behaviour is taken into account by considering opening/rotation of the joints under external loads, which cause a reduction in the contact surface area between two segments at the joint location and certain surrounding zones. Consequently, a decrease in the inertial modulus and cross-sectional area at these sections of the lining ring is expected. A specific implementation was developed using a finite-element method framework in which an iterative procedure was applied with the height of the joint section as the unknown parameter. The results obtained using the new simplified HRM (SHRM) were compared with those obtained using the existing complex HRM, which takes joints directly into account, and a three-dimensional numerical model. The results obtained show that the SHRM can be used to estimate the behaviour of a segmental tunnel lining effectively.
Análisis epidemiológico-forense de las electrocuciones en Colombia durante 2010-2014.
Authors: Tejada Valbuena Alberto
Published: January 2018

Introducción: El presente estudio permitió identificar las características de las personas electrocutadas en Colombia en el periodo 2010-2014, tanto en las variables sociodemográficas como en los principales hallazgos en la necropsia.

Materiales y métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional descriptivo, retrospectivo, con información obtenida de los informes de necropsia del Instituto Nacional de Medicina Legal y Ciencias Forenses.

Resultados y discusión: Se analizaron 899 casos de electrocución, el 92,8% corresponde a hombres; el 52,4% de las personas estaba trabajando en el momento de la muerte y el 71,5% de los electrocutados era del área urbana de Colombia. Se determinaron las tasas de mortalidad de las ciudades con mayor frecuencia de electrocuciones en Colombia y se compararon con la tasa nacional. El 63,4% de las electrocuciones fue por alto voltaje y se deter minaron los sitios de entrada y salida de la corriente, con una proporción de casos con extensa quemadura. Se encontró una asociación estadísticamente significativa entre el voltaje y hallazgos en la piel; sin embargo, no se encontró asociación entre el tipo voltaje y los hallazgos al examen interno. La mayoría de las muertes fueron accidentales, mientras que se encontró un caso de homicidio y un caso de posible suicidio. </p

Conclusiones: Las muertes por electrocución representan un problema oculto en muchas ciudades de Colombia, con características sociodemográficas susceptibles de prevención por los estamentos gubernamentales. El perito forense debe conocer los conceptos y hallazgos típicos y atípicos de las electrocuciones de acuerdo con el contexto de los hechos, tipo de voltaje y hallazgos para realizar un abordaje adecuado de la necropsia.

Authors: Popa Daniela María , Arroyo Pardo Eduardo , López-Parra Ana María
Published: January 2018

Propósito: actualmente, los marcadores que determinan el origen biogeográfico están teniendo mucho auge, especialmente en el ámbito forense. Estos marcadores permiten analizar el adn de un individuo y determinar su origen biogeográfico. Estos análisis se llevan a cabo con frecuencia a través de SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms), pero más recientemente también a través de InDels. Debido a este auge, la finalidad de la revisión es recopilar información sobre los marcadores que actualmente se están utilizando, su diferente rendimiento y su problemática, así como las posibles soluciones.

Periodo que se abarcó, origen y tipos de publicaciones: el periodo abarcado para el análisis es del año 2006 al 2016, con artículos recopilados de PubMed y Web of Science, sin ninguna preferencia en cuanto al origen.

Punto de vista: aunque se han empleado para diferentes poblaciones y con diferentes marcadores, muestran resultados similares. Los artículos versan desde los tipos de marcadores seleccionados para el análisis, como marcadores autosómicos o de linaje, hasta comparaciones entre marcadores de la misma categoría, como los SNP y los InDels entre los autosómicos. Se han seleccionado así para poder obtener una visión comparativa de los más eficaces para la detección del origen biogeográfico.

Conclusiones: se ha comprobado que los más marcadores eficaces son los AIM-SNP autosómicos, en cuanto a diferenciación entre grupos poblacionales, y los AIM-InDels, de forma suplementaria en los casos de mezcla poblacional.

Published: January 2018

Gender identity, one of the most important social categories in people’s lives, is socially constructed and language is claimed to have a significant role in constructing the gender identity. This paper studies the construction of Sundanese women through five Sundanese nouns referring to women found in the corpus of Manglè magazine, published between 1958–2013. The research employs a mixed-method design in which quantitative analysis is combined with qualitative analysis to investigate how the nouns referring to women are used to construct Sundanese women from the periods of Guided Democracy (1958–1965) to Reformation (2004–2013). The quantitative analysis is used to examine the frequency of word occurrence diachronically. The frequency of word accurrence is subsequently interpreted qualitatively by considering social and cultural contexts, such as the norms of speech levels in Sundanese, Sundanese belief about marriage, and gender issues.

Three Cultural "Images" of One Theme: Petrarch and German Interpreters of the 16th century
Authors:   Yuri Gagarin State Technical University of Saratov, Devyataykina Nina
Published: January 2018

The subject of the article obtains special significance today when we celebrate the five hundred anniversary of the German reformation. Recent research findings demonstrate that the beginning of the 16th century was the time not only of huge social tension, but also of intensive cultural activity. Primarily on the basis of Petrarch’s dialogue “On the loss of property”, the 1530s Pinitian’s epigraphs as well as the 1520s Master of Petrarch’s woodcut, the author reveals how the three «texts» interact with one another. The author comes to a conclusion that the Petrarch’s dialogue belongs to the genre of secular reflections. It has been based on both the Stoic philosophy and the contemporary experience. As the Protestant and the priest, Pinitian focuses on the subject of loss. In the field of general didactics, his views are close to the ones of Petrarch. However, Pinitian excludes Classical examples as well as a theme of fate from his writings. Master of Petrarch depicts the theme of loss in the scene of shipwreck. All the three authors show that a man should respond to destiny’s challenge by adhering to the Stoic and Christian values. They declare that the person’s values are not diminished by the loss of property.

The article presents an analysis of the risk factors for anxiety and depression in people with airflow limitation based on the results of the second (diagnostic) phase of the RESPECT (RESearch on the PrEvalence and the diagnosis of COPD and its Tobacco-related aetiology). The data indicates that participants with airflow limitation that had been revealed during the epidemiological study and with borderline or abnormal anxiety and/or depression showed in diagnostic study persistent airflow limitation (FEV1/FVC = 66.48 ± 10.22, p < 0.05) and more perceived respiratory symptoms (CAT = 11.1 ± 10.01, mMRC = 1.68 ± 1.02, p < 0.001) compared to those without mental disorders. Also, they tended to have concomitant cardiovascular diseases (coronary heart disease, chronic heart failure, p < 0.001) and diabetes mellitus (p < 0.01) more frequently. Although chronic heart failure is the most prominent risk factor for anxiety/depression, it becomes non-significant when corrected for other somatic diseases and respiratory symptoms.
Thomas Bernhard e Walter Benjamin: por uma origem redentora
Authors: Ribeiro Helano Jader
Published: January 2018

Este artigo tem o intuito de armar uma análise acerca da escritura do austríaco Thomas Bernhard, em especial com sua autobiografia – sua experiência traumática na Segunda Guerra –, cujo título, Origem, já nos arrebata para questões do teórico Walter Benjamin e seu Ursprung (origem – pulo primeiro) anacrônico. A questão da origem, explicitada por Bernhard, parece transitar menos no âmbito da gênese (Entstehung), da descendência (Herkunft), que em uma leitura dialética da história, através da inserção dos oprimidos – movimento de redenção –, assim como Benjamin desejaria.

Da filologia da guerra à divisão do “eu” feminino em As Duas Sombras do Rio, de João Paulo Borges Coelho
Authors: Can Nazir Ahmed
Published: January 2018

Em seu primeiro romance, As duas sombras do rio, João Paulo Borges Coelho explora diversos aspectos da guerra civil moçambicana, entre eles a ruptura familiar, o comércio ilegal e o trauma vividos pelas mulheres. Veremos como as personagens femininas, nesse romance, já não são vistas por seu caráter passivo e de espera ou como vítimas de uma guerra feita exclusivamente por homens; pelo contrário, individualizadas e já não representadas em bloco, mostram-se ativas de múltiplas maneiras. Desempenhando papéis variados na hierarquia social do romance, seus destinos se aproximam apenas pela divisão existencial e pela transitoriedade, condições tornadas visíveis pela descrição de seus estados íntimos e suas ações públicas.

Leishmaniasis is transmitted naturally in urban and suburban areas, due to the emergence and reemergence of their vectors in these areas. In order to deepen the knowledge about ecological aspects that affect the occurrence of vectors in areas of transmission of leishmaniasis areas in Cuiabá, state of Mato Grosso (MT), Brazil, a survey was carried out of the Zoonosis Control Center database – ZCC serologically positive dogs from Cuiabá municipality within the period 2005-2011. Nine species of the genus Lutzomyia and one of Brumptomyia were identified. The most abundant species were Lutzomyia whitmani (33.2%), followed by L. cruzi (16.8%) longipalpis (13.9%) Brumptomyia brumpti (9.9%), L. saulensis (4.0%) and L. flaviscutellata (3.5%). There was an increase in the number of Leishmaniasis vectors in the municipality of Cuiabá during the years 2005-2011. The presence of infected dogs, the increase in vector’s density and the rate of susceptibility and surveillance interruption may increase the risk of leishmaniasis transmission to humans in the municipality of Cuiabá.Keywords: Dogs.
