Modelo oculto de Markov para imputação de genótipos de marcadores moleculares
Authors: MEDEIROS Elias Silva de , LEANDRO Roseli Aparecida
Published: March 2019

Muitas são as características quantitativas que são, significativamente, influenciadas por fatores genéticos, em geral, existem vários genes que colaboram para a variação de uma ou mais características quantitativas. As informações ausentes, a respeito dos genótipos nos marcadores moleculares, é um problema comum em estudo de mapeamento genético e, por conseguinte, no mapeamento dos locus que controlam estas características fenotípicas (QTL). Para solucionar este problema, foi utilizado o método do modelo oculto de Markov para inferir estes dados. Os métodos de acurácias evidenciaram o sucesso da aplicação desta técnica de imputação. Uma vez imputado na inferência baysiana, estes dados não serão tratados como uma variável aleatória resultando, assim, numa redução no espaço paramétrico do modelo. Outra grande dificuldade, no mapeamento de QTL, deve-se ao fato de que não se conhece, ao certo, a sua quantidade que influencia uma dada característica, fazendo com que surjam diversos problemas e um deles é a dimensão do espaço paramétrico e, consequentemente, a obtenção da amostra a posteriori. Assim, com o objetivo de contornar este problema, foi proposta a utilização do método Monte Carlo via cadeia de Markov com Saltos Reversíveis, uma vez que ele permite flutuar, entre cada interação, modelos com diferentes quantidades de parâmetros.

Occasionally, the behavior of a response variable monitored over time can be influenced by an intervention performed during the experimental period. With this perspective, this study proposes a simple methodology based on the fitting of two mixed effects models in longitudinal profiles, before and after an intervention, to verify significant differences. The notoriety of this methodology consists of using all repeated observations from the response variable regarding the intervention. This proposed method was motivated by two real datasets. Linear mixed models were fitted in the first dataset, which refers to the CD4 cells count in HIV-positive patients whom, over 30 consecutive days, received a glutamine based food supplement. For the second dataset, nonlinear mixed effects models were fitted for the body mass measurements of preterm newborns whose initial diet was based on breast milk and was subsequently replaced by a commercial food supplement. The proposed methodology was able to identify differences in  the growth trend of the CD4 cells count after the observed patients took glutamine based supplementation. Moreover, it provided evidences suggesting the commercial food supplement as an alternative to a breast milk diet in preterm newborns by maintaining the body mass growth trend.

Leprosy is a chronic granulomatous disease with a long incubation period caused by Mycobacterium leprae that mainly affects the skin, mucous membranes and the peripheral nervous system. It carries the risk of per-manent sequels with a significant impact on the patient’s quality of life. It has a considerable clinically diver-sity and possible atypical presentations. We present a case of a 31-year-old, skin phototype V woman with multibacillary leprosy characterized by multiple outbreaks of erythema nodosum leprosum, as an inaugural manifestation of the disease. The disease was acquired within a group of children and adolescents from an endemic region of Africa, evolved untreated for 3 years, and presented with unusual features and remarkable lymphatic involvement. We highlight the importance of building and maintaining collaboration between expert centers and institutional partnerships in order to provide the adequate diagnostic resources and appropriate care to the affected populations.

Published: March 2019

A dermatomiosite é uma miopatia inflamatória idiopática, rara, com manifestações cutâneas e sistémicas variadas. Mais de 70% dos doentes apresentam autoanticorpos específicos da doença, que se correlacionam com manifestações clínicas distintas. Além dos anticorpos anti-sintetase, nos últimos anos foram descobertos vários anticorpos associados à dermatomiosite e que parecem ter um papel importante na orientação diagnóstica e prognóstica da doença, incluindo os autoanticorpos contra melanoma differentiation antigen 5 (MDA5), transcriptional intermediary factor 1 (TIF1), nuclear matrix protein 2 (NXP2), small ubiquitin-like modifier activating enzyme (SAE) e os anti-Mi2. O autoanticorpo anti-MDA5 está associado a dermatomiosite amiopática e doença intersticial pulmonar rapidamente progressiva e potencialmente fatal, além de caraterísticas mucocutâneas distintas, como ulceração cutânea. Há uma forte correlação entre a positividade para os autoanticorpos anti-TIF-1γ e malignidade, pelo menos na dermatomiosite do adulto. Na dermatomiosite juvenil, estes autoanticorpos têm sido associados a doença cutânea mais extensa, mas não a malignidade. A positividade para anti-NXP2 está associada a calcinose cutânea e envolvimento muscular severos. Na dermatomiosite com autoanticorpos anti-SAE há frequentemente envolvimento cutâneo e disfagia severos, mas com boa resposta à terapêutica imunossupressora e bom prognóstico. Os anticorpos anti-Mi2 associam- -se igualmente a um bom prognóstico.

A hanseníase históide representa uma forma atípica de apresentação da hanseníase virchowiana, descrita por Wade em 1963, com características clínicas e anatomopatológicas próprias, que no passado era considerada um marcador de resistência medicamentosa e recidiva. Clinicamente caracteriza-se por placas ou nodulos de aspecto queloidiforme. À microscopia óptica nota-se infiltrado predominantemente constituído por células fusiformes que por vezes simula neoplasia fibrohistiocítica, associada a poucos macrófagos espumosos e numerosos bacilos álcool-ácido-resistentes. Relata-se um caso de hanseníase virchowiana com lesões clinicamente compatíveis com a forma históide, a fim de demonstrar e reforçar o seu grande polimorfismo clínico e a importância do seu conhecimento para diagnóstico e tratamento precoce, para interromper a cadeia de transmissão e diminuir a ocorrência de incapacidades irreversíveis causadas pela doença.

Poincaré index of plane polynomial fields of third and fourth degree
Authors: Zabreiko P. P. , Krivko-Krasko A. V.
Published: March 2019

The conditions of isolation of a zero singular point of plane polynomial fields of third and fourth degree are considered in terms of the coefficients of the components of these fields. The isolation conditions depend on the greatest common divisor of the components of polynomial fields: in some cases only on its degree, and in some cases, additionally, on the presence of nonzero real zeros. The reasoning, which allows one to write out the isolation conditions, is based on the concept of the resultant and subresultants of components of plane polynomial fields. If the zero singular point is isolated, its index is calculated through the values of subresultants and coefficients of components.
Motion of the relativistic center of mass of the two-body system in the environment
Authors: Ryabushko A. P. , Nemanova I. T. , Zhur T. A.
Published: March 2019

The motion equations for a system of two bodies moving in a medium are derived in the Cartesian coordinate system in the Newtonian theory. The coordinate system is barycentric, that is, the center of mass of the two-body system is immobile. Using the Einstein – Infeld approximation procedure, the gravitational field created by the “two bodies – medium” system was found from the Einstein field equations, and then the equations of motion of the bodies in this field were obtained.

It is shown that in the post-Newtonian approximation of the general theory of relativity, the center of mass of two bodies moving in a gas – dust rarefied medium of constant density, determined by analogy with the Newtonian center of mass, is displaced along the cycloid, although in the Newtonian approximation it is stationary, i.e. the movement along the cycloid occurs with respect to the barycentric Newtonian fixed reference frame. Numerical estimates are given for the magnitude of this displacement. Given a popular value of the medium density ρ = 10–21 g·cm–3 its order can reach 106 km per one rotation of two bodies around their center of mass. In the case of the equality of masses of the bodies, their relativistic center of mass, like their Newtonian center of mass, is immobile.

It has been hypothesized that for any elliptical orbits of two bodies and an inhomogeneous distribution of the gas – dust medium the qualitative picture of motion of the relativistic center of mass of the two bodies will not change.

PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP AS A MECHANISM FOR FINANCING INFRASTRUCTURE MODERNIZATION
Authors: Kravchenko Olha
Published: March 2019

The article is devoted to the study of the possibilities of attracting private business for financing stateowned infrastructural facilities. The purpose of the paper is to study the practice of attracting private business for the modernization of infrastructure, including railway and the development of an approach to the formation of a variety of infrastructural objects transferred to the public-private partnership, based on an assessment of the possible reduction of their potential. Methodology. The study is based on an empirical analysis of data on the practice of financing infrastructure modernization, as well as a SWOT analysis of the prospects for the development of European railways. Results of the research showed that the public-private partnership has significant advantages over the budgetary one due to not only reducing the financial burden on the state budget but also increasing the efficiency of using state-owned facilities. In the field of railway transport, the volume of public-private partnership and the number of projects being implemented is insignificant due to significant state interference in its activities. SWOT analysis showed that railways have significant development potential, and its further increase will be achieved not through expansion of the network, but its modernization and innovative development. The dangers of the development of railways are associated with possible ineffective state policy in the field of railway transport. However, the complete transfer of the rail infrastructure to private business is not expedient since it is of strategic importance. The determination of the list of facilities for transfer to public-private partnership should be based on an analysis of the degree of their interest in private business, the need for their modernization and the possibilities for its financing. These objects are sections of the railway network included in transport corridors, as well as providing access to seaports. At the same time, the criterion of the first priority of the transfer of objects for the public-private partnership should be based on an assessment of the change in their production and economic potential when postponing modernization. Value/originality. The implementation of the proposed approach to the selection of infrastructure facilities for public-private partnership will allow not only carrying out technical and technological renovation of the railway infrastructure, preserving the integrity of the strategic transport network, but also minimizing possible economic and social losses due to underfunding of its innovative development.
ECONOMIC AND LEGAL ASPECTS OF THE FRANCHISE AGREEMENT IN POLAND
Authors: Nemesh Petro , Kadala Vitalii
Published: March 2019

The purpose of the article is to study the economic and legal nature of the franchise agreement in Poland. Since franchising in this country has become the most common way of establishing a business, it is advisable to identify the key economic and legal features of the franchise agreement in which the parties specify their rights and obligations, the franchise price, the duration of the franchise relations, the procedure for performing calculations, etc. The subject of the study is a franchise agreement in Poland. Research methodology. The research is based on the use of general scientific and special-scientific methods and techniques of scientific knowledge. The dialectical method allowed us to investigate the definition of a franchise agreement in Poland and its key terms. The comparative legal method was used to compare doctrinal approaches to this issue. The statistical method was used to establish data that reflects the effectiveness of franchising activities. The method of system analysis helped to find out in which areas of economic activity franchising is most demanded. Interpretation of the content of Polish legal acts governing issues related to the conclusion of a franchise agreement in this country was realized with the help of the normative-dogmatic method. The system-structural method was used to study the franchise agreement in Poland as a single entity (system) with the coordinated functioning of all its elements. The methods of grouping and classifying formed the basis for separating the list of conditions, which are necessary for concluding a franchise agreement in Poland, as well as provisions that should be included in the content of this agreement. Methods of analysis and synthesis helped to study some parts of this agreement to formulate further conclusions. Practical application. The positive experience of Poland in regulating issues related to the conclusion of a franchise agreement can be used for making appropriate changes to the Ukrainian legislation. Although there is no special legislation in Poland, which regulates the issues connected with this kind of contract, the adoption of a number of progressive economic measures, as well as complement existing regulations with the provisions on franchising, allowed Poland to become one of the most attractive countries for foreign entrepreneurs. Correlation/originality. This scientific work is the first research in Ukraine devoted not only to general issues of regulation of franchising activity in Europe but specifically to the franchise agreement in a separate country (in Poland) and its legal and economic peculiarities.

Public Spending, Quality of Bureaucracy and Economic Growth: A
Theoretical Analysis
Authors: Naseer Shaheen
Published: March 2019

This paper develops a theoretical framework to investigate the
relationship between public spending and economic growth, where public
spending provides both productive capital and unproductive services. We
take into account the quality of bureaucracy with the possibility of
rent-seeking motives. A key feature of the model is that it
distinguishes between utility enhancing and productivity enhancing
public spending. In the absence of rent-seeking motives, the paper
demonstrates that public spending will promote economic growth only if
marginal productivity of spending is high enough to offset the potential
output loss due to increased taxation. In the presence of rent-seeking,
however, the impact of public spending on economic growth depends on the
quality of bureaucracy and how the latter impinges upon the rentseeking
behaviour. The analysis shows that while improvement in bureaucratic
quality would unambiguously raise the share of utility enhancing public
spending, its impact on economic growth would depend on how bureaucratic
quality influences the relative magnitudes of the two types of public
spending as well as on how far bureaucratic extraction will be
controlled as a result of improvement in bureaucratic quality.
Bureaucratic extraction is likely to be minimised with strong
institutions and effective monitoring and accountability mechanisms
thereby improving the prospects of economic growth. JEL Classification:

Authors: Zulfiqar Fahd
Published: March 2019

The book, Growth and Inequality in Pakistan, is written on a
very important theme. In this book, important economic issues of
Pakistan economy are touched upon carefully, using recent facts and
figures, and far-reaching practical associations are also made a part of
this book. The book proceeds in a logical manner and the topics covered
in the book capture the deep attention of the reader. The book is
divided into seven sections and each section is further divided into
chapters related to the issues of concern. As the rising population is
an important concern for any economy, therefore, before policy options,
the initial discussion in this book focuses on the issues concerning the
population of Pakistan. As the population census has been carried out
after a gap of nineteen years, it becomes inevitable to start addressing
issues related to population, its growth, and international comparisons.
Section one presents a good review of the population of Pakistan, which
has reached 207.8 million. 1 The discussion is followed by focusing on
the distribution of population and its growth. The growth rate for the
period 1998-2017 revealed by the census is 2.4 percent, which, according
to the author, is worrisome. The size and growth of cities is also a
concern, which shows that the fastest growing cities in Pakistan are
Lahore and Islamabad. Overall, in Pakistan urbanisation is taking place
at a moderate rate but imbalances are observed in the size distribution
of the cities.

Promoting Autonomous Learning in Reading Class
Authors: Sholeh Agus
Published: March 2019

To have good acquisition and awareness in reading, the learners need a long and continuous process, and therefore, they are required to have autonomy in learning reading. This study aims to promote learner autonomy in reading class by combining learner-centered reading teaching and extensive reading teaching. Learner-centered reading teaching was carried out through group discussion, presentation, and language awareness activities. Meanwhile, extensive reading teaching was done to review the learners‘ materials in presentation and reinforce their acquisition. Those two different approaches were applied due to differences on learner's characteristics and needs. The result showed some success in the practice of autonomy, indicated by changes on learners' attitude. However, many learners showed that they focused more on obtaining score than on developing their language acquisition. By implementing the approach, the teacher can assist learners to be aware of their ability to learn independently and equip them with the skill needed for long-life learning.

What helps American Mothers Stay at Work? Reducing Childcare Costs, Increasing Head Start Enrollment and Lengthening School Days – Evidence from Key States
Authors: Ruppanner Leah , Scarborough William
Published: March 2019

In this policy brief, we highlight three states that have implemented family-friendly policy to support mothers' employment. Nebraska offers affordable childcare and longer school-days, Washington, D.C. provides universal preschool coverage, and North Dakota has the most comprehensive head start enrollment in the country. These policies have been successful in providing quality childcare and have also improved mother's labor force outcomes. Drawing on the examples of these three states, we recommend that policy aiming to improve mothers' employment should focus on the expansion of affordable childcare.
The future of energy: Energy prospects for a budding inter-planetary civilization
Authors: Kovic Marko
Published: March 2019

The only prospect for the long-term survival of humankind is space colonization: The establishment of permanent and self-sustaining human habitats beyond Earth. One necessary condition for space colonization is energy. In order to successfully colonize space, future generations will have to have suitable sources of energy at their disposal. In this discussion paper, existing as well as possible future energy sources are analyzed in terms of their utility for space colonization. The conclusion is sobering: Among existing energy sources, Solar power and nuclear fission are most promising. However, without the (rapid) development of space-based Solar power and nuclear fusion technologies, humankind might not be able to sustain extraterrestrial habitats - humankind might go extinct if we do not develop new sources of energy quickly enough. This existential energy challenge is proposed as a novel and general explanation for the Fermi paradox (the apparent absence of technologically advanced intelligence in our galaxy other than humankind).
Alternative and independent: The universe of technology-related “bootcamps”
Authors: Arbeit Caren A , Bentz Alexander , Cataldi Emily Forrest , Sanders Herschel
Published: March 2019

In recent years, nontraditional workforce training programs have proliferated inside and outside of traditional post-secondary institutions. A subset of these programs, bootcamps, advertise high job placement rates and have been hailed by policymakers as key to training skilled workers. However, few formal data exist on the number, types, prices, location, or other descriptive details of program offerings. We fill this void by studying the universe of bootcamp programs offered as of June 30, 2017. In this report, we discuss the attributes of the 1,010 technology-related programs offered in the United States, Canada, and online. We find more diversity among bootcamp providers and programs than would be expected from public discourse. This primarily relates to the mode of delivery (online vs. in person), intensity (part time/full time), cost, and program types. Based on the data we collected, we present a classification structure for bootcamps focused on five distinct program types.

The physical properties of amorphous indium zinc oxynitride (a-IZON) thin films, which were deposited at room temperature by reactive RF magnetron sputtering, were investigated. The results of the investigations indicated that the a-IZON films possessed excellent qualities: high transparency with a very low resistivity from 10-3 Ω∙cm to 10-4 Ω∙cm, while the carrier concentration showed values over 1020 cm-3 with mobility between 10 and 21 cm2⸱V-1⸱s-1. The incorporated nitrogen reduces the typical crystallization of IZO and favors the deposition of transparent thin films. These results show that the IZON is an ideal amorphous material for applications in transparent and flexible optoelectronic devices.
Goos-Hänchen effect on a one transverse dimensional Hermite-Gaussian Beam
Authors: Romero P. C. , Ostrovsky A.S.
Published: March 2019

We study the lateral displacement (Goos-H\"{a}nchen effect) of a Hermite-Gaussian beam incident on a dielectric interface of lower index of refraction than the incident media. Unlike previous results on the same subject, the present result can be applied to an infinite family of higher order solutions (or modes) of the Huygens-Fresnel integral. The final theoretical expression is valid for values that are close to the critical angle $\theta_{c}$. Discussion is made for the behavior of the lateral displacement for different modes of the Hermite-Gaussian beam.
Time dependent self-diffusion coefficient of methane molecules confined into micropores structure of a sandstone
Authors: Guevara Rodríguez F. de J.
Published: March 2019

In this work, the effect of pore structure of a sandstone on the molecular displacement of confined methane gas is analyzed. It was found that the self-diffusion coefficient of a methane molecule depends on the pore size distribution an their connectivity. In particular, the time dependent self-diffusion coefficient exhibits a maximum which is correlated with the effect of the molecular confinement. It was found that a sandstone with small pores and/or pores bad connected traps the gas more efficiently than other pores structures. This fact enable to understand the scattered values which the residual trapped gas saturation measures exhibit with different sandstones.
