The International Entry Choices of Italian SMEs in Emerging Markets: a Case-based Analysis
Authors: Cannavale Chiara , Laurenza Elena
Published: January 2018

The paper addresses the factors influencing the SMEs’ entry choices in international markets and explores two factors: one related to the external environment and one dependent on firms. The first factor is the institutional context as the whole of formal and informal rules of the country target. The second is the market commitment, intended as resources committed in a particular market area: the experience firms get in foreign markets and a general attitude to maintain the international presence for a long period are the main sources of market knowledge.The aim of the study is to understand the effect of company-specific factors and of context-specific factors, namely the market commitment and institutional context, on SMEs’ entry choice mode in foreign markets. The paper develops a multiple case study analysis of four small international Italian firms. Built on the institutional theory and on the market commitment construct, the paper offers a conceptual model that shows that the institutional context strongly influences the amount of resources involved in the internationalization process, while the market commitment affects more the complexity – and intensity – of the process.

Do fazer poético da infância: ‘uma coisa que não é a mesma coisa mas é igual’
Authors: Magalhães Violante F.
Published: January 2018

O reconhecimento de textos poéticos produzidos por crianças tem o mérito didático de trazer um incentivo para uma educação estético-literária. Quando publicadas, tais produções não só constituem um campo de fruição para o leitor (criança, jovem e adulto), como potenciam o campo formativo e possibilitam a investigação. Um dos projetos que, em Portugal, tem persistido na divulgação da escrita poética infantil é Cancioneiro Infanto-juvenil para a Língua Portuguesa, do Instituto Piaget. Iniciado em 1989 e idealizado para 30 anos, deste projeto resultaram já 17 volumes. Neste artigo, analisam-se os textos inseridos em alguns desses volumes, de crianças com idades compreendidas entre os 2 e os 6 anos. Se mais não fosse, analisados de forma entrecruzada com aspetos pedagógicos, científicos e didáticos, os textos em análise são depoimentos preciosos, pois são modos de as crianças se dizerem e ajudam-nos, a nós, adultos, a pensá-las, a conhecê-las melhor.********************************************************************Childhood poetics: ‘a thing that is not the same thing but the same’Abstract: The recognition of poetic texts produced by children has the didactic merit of bringing an incentive for aesthetic-literary education. When published, such productions not only constitute a field of enjoyment for the reader (child, youth and adult), but also enhance the field of education and enable research. One of the projects in Portugal that has persisted in the dissemination of poetic texts written by children is Cancioneiro Infantojuvenil para a Língua Portuguesa, of Instituto Piaget. Started in 1989 and designed for 30 years, it was already published 17 books. In this article, we analyze texts ‘written’ by children from 2 to 6 years of age. Moreover, analyzed in a way interspersed with pedagogical, scientific and didactic aspects, these texts are precious testimonies, because they are ways for children to express their own world and to help us, adults, to think about them, and to know them better.Keywords: Children’s literature; Children’s writing; Cancioneiro Infanto-juvenil para a Língua Portuguesa
Simultaneous quantitation of aconitum alkaloids from You-Gui-yin in rat plasma by UPLC–ESI–MS and its application to a pharmacokinetic study
Authors: Zhang JianHua , Wang Ling , Zhu Xi , Bai Xue , Yin Hua
Published: January 2018

You-Gui-Yin (YGY), a famous traditional Chinese medicine, has been widely used in clinics for the treatment of kidney-yang deficiency, yang deficiency caused by excessive yin, and osteoporosis. A rapid and sensitive ultraperformance liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization–mass spectrometry (UPLC–ESI–MS) method for simultaneous determination of six Aconitum alkaloids including aconitine (AC), hypaconitine (HA), mesaconitine (MA), benzoylaconine (BAC), benzoylhypaconine (BHA), and benzoylmesaconine (BMA) in rat plasma after oral administration of YGY was developed in this study. Chromatographic separation was performed on an ACQUITY UPLC™ BEH C18 column (2.1 × 100 mm, 1.7 μm) using gradient elution with the mobile phase consisting of 2 mmol/L ammonium formate in 0.05% formic acid aqueous solution and 0.05% formic acid methanol solution, at a flow rate of 0.20 mL/min. MS detection was performed in the positive ion mode. The calibration curves were linear in the concentration range of 0.04160–41.60 ng/mL, 0.1070–107.0 ng/mL, 0.07358–73.50 ng/mL, 0.03228–32.28 ng/mL, 0.01809–18.09 ng/mL, and 0.1320–132.0 ng/mL for AC, HA, MA, BAC, BHA, and BMA, respectively. The intra- and inter-day precisions (relative standard deviation [RSD]) were less than 11.6% and 12.6%, respectively. The accuracies Relative Error (RE) ranged from −10.2% to 5.6%, while the recoveries ranged from 70.4% to 99.3%. The method for simultaneous quantitation of Aconitum alkaloids of You-Gui-Yin in rat plasma is accurate and repeatable, and this method was successfully applied to investigate the pharmacokinetics of the six Aconitum alkaloids in rat plasma after oral administration of YGY. For the pharmacokinetic study, the pharmacokinetics of the six Aconitum alkaloids were best described by a two-compartment open model.
Tumor Mutational Burden Guides Therapy in a Treatment Refractory POLE-Mutant Uterine Carcinosarcoma
Authors: Bhangoo Munveer S. , Boasberg Peter , Mehta Pareen , Elvin Julia A. , Ali Siraj M. , Wu Winnie , Klempner Samuel J.
Published: January 2018

Gynecologic carcinosarcomas, previously known as malignant mixed Müllerian tumors, are uncommon malignancies that demonstrate an aggressive biology and lack a standard therapeutic approach. Molecular analyses have revealed recurrent alterations in chromatin remodeling genes, but clinical support for therapeutic significance is lacking. We prospectively identified a patient with refractory uterine carcinosarcoma whose tumor was subject to molecular profiling at diagnosis and again at radiographic progression. Initial molecular testing did not assess tumor mutational burden, DNA polymerase ? (POLE), or microsatellite status. After the failure of several lines of chemotherapy, comprehensive genomic profiling of a repeat biopsy identified two missense mutations of the exonuclease domain of POLE (P286R and T323A). Tumor mutational burden was elevated (169 mutations per DNA megabase), consistent with an ultramutator phenotype. As seen in previously reported POLE-endometrioid cases, our patient harbored alterations in PIK3CA, ARID1A, and PTEN and was microsatellite stable, with appreciable tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. She achieved an ongoing durable response with pembrolizumab. This is the first report of programmed cell death protein 1 response in uterine carcinosarcoma.

Key Points

Uterine carcinosarcoma is an uncommon and aggressive histologic variant of endometrial carcinoma with a poor prognosis. Inactivating DNA polymerase ? (POLE) mutations have been associated with high tumor mutational burden (TMB) and response to immune checkpoint inhibition. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of response to immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy in a patient with uterine carcinosarcoma. This case further supports expanding genomic profiling to include assessment of tumor mutational burden across tumor types, given the potential for immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy in TMB-high tumors.

Published: January 2018

On April 27, 2017, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved regorafenib for the treatment of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who had previously been treated with sorafenib. Approval was based on the results of a single, randomized, placebo-controlled trial (RESORCE) that demonstrated an improvement in overall survival (OS). Patients were randomly allocated to receive regorafenib160 mg orally once daily or matching placebo for the first 21 days of each 28-day cycle. The trial demonstrated a significant improvement in OS (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.63; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.50–0.79, p < .0001) with an estimated median OS of 10.6 months in the regorafenib arm and 7.8 months in the placebo arm. A statistically significant improvement in progression-free survival (PFS) based on modified RECIST for HCC [Semin Liver Dis 2010;30:52–60] (HR = 0.46; 95% CI, 0.37–0.56, p < .0001) was also demonstrated; the estimated median PFS was 3.1 and 1.5 months in the regorafenib and placebo arms, respectively. The overall response rate, based on modified RECIST for HCC, was 11% in the regorafenib arm and 4% in the placebo arm. The toxicity profile was consistent with that observed in other indications; the most clinically significant adverse reactions were palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia, diarrhea, and hypertension. Based on the improvement in survival and acceptable toxicity, a favorable benefit-to-risk evaluation led to approval for treatment of patients with advanced HCC.

Implications for Practice

Regorafenib is the first drug approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma that has progressed on sorafenib and is expected to become a standard of care for these patients.
Maintaining the Ecological Flows of Estuaries: A Critical Reflection on the Application and Interpretation of the Relevant Legal Framework through the Lens of the Klein River Estuary
Authors: Paterson Alexander Ross
Published: January 2018

South Africa has 291 functional estuaries of which 43 per cent are threatened. These estuaries provide numerous environmental goods and services to the species situated within and adjacent to them. In an effort to improve the protection of the country’s estuaries and the environmental goods and services they provide, many laws of direct and indirect relevance to estuaries have been introduced over the past two decades. The provision of these environmental goods and services is however contingent upon maintaining the natural ecological flows inherent in estuaries. One significant threat to maintaining these natural ecological flows is the artificial opening of the mouth of an estuary, an action often triggered by the desire to protect private property against flooding when estuarine water levels rise. Decisions to artificially open the mouth of an estuary often therefore need to achieve a difficult balance between ecological (generally public) interests and proprietary (generally private) interests, a balance which should ideally be informed by the numerous laws, and their associated plans and policies, of direct relevance to protecting and managing estuaries. The courts have recently been called upon to resolve disputes regarding decisions about whether or not to artificially open the mouth of an estuary, and what one recent decision of the Supreme Court of Appeal in Abbott v Overstrand Municipality (2016) clearly illustrates is that there are not only significant challenges in the implementation of the legal framework of direct relevance to estuaries, but also in the judiciary’s understanding and application thereof. It furthermore illustrates distinct anomalies in the interpretation of the original, assigned and incidental executive authority of local government in relation to environmental matters, and that notwithstanding a swathe of recent relevant jurisprudence in this regard, confusion still abounds in this environmental governance quagmire.

Развитие территориально-отраслевого разделения труда в рыночных условиях функционирования сельского хозяйства региона
Authors: Pecinovsky V. F.
Published: January 2018

Цель: разработка методических положений по совершенствованию регионального размещения и специализации сельскохозяйственного производства в регионе. Обсуждение: одно из важнейших условий конкурентно способности сельского хозяйства, является рациональное размещение его отрасли (видов продукции) на основе территориально-отраслевого разделения труда, под которым в рыночной экономики следует понимать взаимосвязанную специализацию отдельных регионов, на производстве тех или иных видов  сельскохозяйственной продукции, размеры, интенсивность, и направленность их товарных потоков, обусловленные, с одной стороны, спросом и предложением, а с другой – государственным регулированием аграрного рынка. Анализ структурных сдвигов в размещении сельхозпроизводства в Центрально-Черноземном районе (ЦЧР) свидетельствует, что в областях ЦЧР нарушены формировавшиеся  десятилетиями специализированные зоны сельхозпроизводства, что явилось одной из серьезных причин падения производства, его устойчивости и эффективности. Результаты: разработаны концептуальные положения по формированию специализированных зон производства отдельных видов сельскохозяйственной продукции путем государственного регулирования процессов рационального размещения агропроизводства направленного на углубление специализации и усиления концентрации производства, эффективное использование земельных трудовых и материально-финансовых ресурсов, обеспечение продовольственной безопасности региона.

Authors: Partigöç Nur Sinem
Published: January 2018

Recently, the supply of communal and social needs of the citizens in urban areas is inadequate due to the increasing demand. As a result, urban settlements have shifted towards unsuitable areas. This shift has caused damage to natural areas, disrupted the ecological balance and has led to the occurrence of various disasters. Recent opportunities exist to build livable and well-planned cities. Urban development strategies for new settlement areas should be developed in order to prevent critical problems in urban areas. Suitability analysis is one of the several methods that can be applied for the development of these strategies. The implementation of this method benefits from GIS. The aim of the study is to determine the most suitable areas for new settlement in the Cigli district (Izmir) and its surroundings according to the suitability factors and also to implement the suitability analysis by using GIS. According to the results, the selected region located in the eastern part of the district center and also known as the urban renewal area was found to be suitable for new development in the Cigli district. The results of the analysis are discussed and a variety of policies have been developed.

Antimicrobial Activity of Kluwek Seed Extract as Natural Preservatives of Tuna Fish Ball
Authors: Mamuaja Christine Fransin , Lumoindong Frans
Published: January 2018

Kluwek seeds contain antimicrobial compounds that can be categorized as preservative agents. The
main objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the addition of polar extract of kluwek seeds against
microbiological quality and sensory quality and shelf life of tuna fish balls. This study used a factorial
completely randomized design with various extract concentrations and storage duration treatments, each
of which conducted in three replications. The variables measured were total microbial and organoleptic
acceptance. In this study, the fishballs were immersed in 2%, 4%, 6% and 8% b/v extract for 60 minutes,
then stored for three days at room temperature (28-30ºC). The results showed that the the highest inhibitory
activity against microbial growth was exhibited by meatballs immersed in 8% concentration, in which total
microbial load up to the third day storage was 1,32 x 102 CFU/g which was still under INS quality for fish
balls of 1 x 107. Fishballs from 0 day storage was more accepted by panelists compared to fishballs from 1,
2, and 3 days storage in terms of organoleptic acceptability and fishballs were still accepted organoleptically
only until one day storage, while fishballs stored for 2 and 3 days have deteriorated based on visual
observation of the color, odor, taste and texture.
Il labirinto e l’artista. La sfinge e la statua nelle Lezioni di Estetica di G.W.F. Hegel
Authors: Cecchinato Giorgia
Published: January 2018

L’obiettivo del testo è quello di presentare la lettura che G.W.F. Hegel (1770- 1831) offre dell’arte dell’antico Egitto, in particolare delle piramidi e della sfinge. I colossali monumenti funerari e il mostro mitológico sarebbero, secondo l’interpretazione di Hegel, espressioni dello spirito e del popolo egizio, della sua cultura, della sua, della religione e del modo di vivere e sentire. In un secondo passo analizzeremo come Hegel usa il mito dell’enigma della sfinge per esemplificare la “superiorità” razionale dei greci in relazione all’antico Egitto. Si vedrà come, in ultima analisi, l’arte greca non è solo l’espressione di una luminosa razionalità conciliata con sé stessa.

Cerraba esta reseña los últimos días del mes de septiembre con la mente puesta en el referéndum catalán del domingo 1 de octubre. Intentaba argumentar sobre la necesidad de cuestionar nuestro acomodo a la confusión y el nivel del debate público sobre la política. El desenlace de los acontecimientos me hizo recordar estas palabras que Kant escribió, con un optimismo conmovedor, en el siglo xviii: Si el género humano retrocediera y acelerase su caída hacia lo peor, no debe perderse la esperanza de que encuentre un punto de inflexión en su camino, donde nuestra especie vire de nuevo hacia lo mejor merced a la disposición moral depositada en ella.Publicación en línea: 31 enero 2018
La protección de los conocimientos tradicionales en el ordenamiento jurídico de propiedad intelectual internacional y ecuatoriano. ¿Empoderamiento o regularización?
Authors: León Calle Stephanie
Published: January 2018

El marco del debate relativo a los derechos de los propietarios de los conocimientos tradicionales se encuentra polarizado entre la regulación establecida en el Acuerdo sobre los Aspectos Comerciales de Derechos de Propiedad Intelectual y el Convenio de Diversidad Biológica, cuyo correlato ecuatoriano es el Código Orgánico de Economía Social del Conocimiento que regula el acceso, uso y aprovechamiento de los conocimientos tradicionales de los pueblos indígenas. Se examina la eficacia y coherencia de este código con el derecho a la libre determinación a través del análisis de tres aspectos: 1. La categoría jurídica «conocimiento tradicional asociado a la biodiversidad» 2. El paradigma económico subyacente 3. Los candados que bloquean la materialización de la consulta previa. Los derechos relativos a los conocimientos tradicionales requieren ser situados en el contexto mayor del derecho a la libre determinación ya que son ambivalentes, pueden ser instrumentalizados políticamente así como podrían ser puestos al servicio de los pueblos.Recibido: 30 junio 2017Aceptado: 11 octubre 2017Publicación en línea: 31 enero 2018
Economic Development and the Spread of Diseases of Affluence in EU Regions
Authors: Żółtaszek Agata , Olejnik Alicja
Published: January 2018

Diseases of affluence (diseases of the twenty‑first century, Western diseases) by definition should have higher prevalence and/or mortality rates in richer and more developed countries than in poorer, underdeveloped states. Therefore, it has been indicated that it is the civilizational progress (directly or indirectly via changes in lifestyle, diet, physical activity, stress, etc.) that stimulates epidemic outbreaks of some illnesses (cancer, diseases of respiratory and cardiovascular systems, diabetes, mental disorders). On the other hand substantial financial resources, highly qualified medical personnel, and cutting‑edge technology of richer states, should allow for effective prevention, diagnostics, and treatment of these diseases. The European Union as a whole, as well as all its member states and their regions, may be considered “highly developed” in terms of economy. Does it, however, mean that EU can be perceived as homogeneous as far as the diseases of affluence epidemiology is concerned? Are the relatively small differences in economic regional development (compered to worldwide inequalities) a significant factor in the spatial distribution of the diseases of affluence? To evaluate the possible dispersion in the epidemiology of some of the so called Western diseases and their relation to regional development, tools of spatial statistics have been incorporated. The research covers 261 EU NUTS 2 regions for the years 2003–2010. This research may provide some insight into the existence of hypothetical diseases of affluence as well as help recognize spatial patterns of prevalence and mortality rates for these illnesses.

Wheat is one of the most important cereal crops in India.Nitrogenand phosphorus arethe major nutrients, which are deficient in Indian soil; hence the effectsof this deficiency on morpho-physiological response and antioxidant metabolism were studied in wheat to improve the knowledge and understanding of adaptive responses of plants.Two wheat genotypes WH1080 and WH1105 were raised hydroponically for 15 and 25 days, using germination paper with four treatments- T1(0%N+0%P), T2(0%N+100%P), T3(100%N+0%P), T4(100%N+100%P). It was found that root/ shoot ratioincreased, however total soluble sugar content decreased. An increase of 8.1% was observed in WH1105 as compared to WH1080 in terms of root/shoot ratio. Lipid peroxidation and H2O2 content increased with decreasing nitrogen and phosphorus levels, which led to production of antioxidant enzyme as superoxide dismutase (EC 1.15.1.1) and catalase (EC 1.11.1.6). It was found thatoxidative stress was greater under the deficiency of nitrogen as compared to that of phosphorus.

Drugs are often associated with intoxicants. In the context of fiqih drugs usually dikiaskan to prohibition of wine. However, in line with the development of contemporary medical science, the works of the new fiqh also mention and emphasize that the effects of damage also have its own influence in relation to drug law. This study aims to explore and analyze the trends of contemporary jurisprudence works in explaining their backs in relating the status of Sharia law values to drug abuse. This study uses qualitative methods. The data obtained from these works were analyzed and made comparisons. A number of 10 contemporary works that discuss drug law and the reasons for its prohibition have been used in this study. The study concluded that the works agreed that drug abuse is haram according to the Shari'a. All activities related to drug abuse such as planting, processing, owning, buying or selling permits used to cooperate with its misuse are haram. Likewise, in terms of its proofing proposition, all works tend to see it is based on the kias to the wine based on the argument that drugs are potentially intoxicating. The works only mention the destructive aspect without emphasizing it as an important basis for the prohibition of drug abuse. This is certainly not in accordance with the reality of the threat of drugs that not only grab the function of the intellect alone, even damaging the five-five main objectives of Islamic law, namely religion, life, intellect, descent and wealth. Hence the affirmation of the restrictive section needs to be emphasized in an effort to ensure fair drug abuse is prevented and handled more seriously in order to ensure the well-being of the ummah is maintained.

Math is considered to be one of the subjects that make it difficult for students to concentrate during the learning process because their brains become tired and tense. One of the most popular and trusted ways to improve learning is by using a 'gym gym' approach. Therefore, the researchers wanted to see whether the 'gym gym' approach could improve learning concentration. The research used a quasi-experimental post-test only control group design. The population was the students of class XI Science Basic General Math A and B, while the sample was 15 students from XI Science B as the experimental group. Using the Mann-Whitney U-test with an alpha level of 0.05 indicated the asymptote Sig of 0.001 <0.05. This means that the concentration of learning in the experimental group was lower than that of the control group so it is concluded that the ‘brain gym’ approach did not significantly affect students’ concentration
