Published: December 2018

O longo flanco meridional do maciço calcário da Serra da Boa Viagem assenta, sobretudo, em unidadesespessas, greso-conglomeráticas e pelíticas avermelhadas, do Jurássico superior e Cretácico inferior. Nestecontexto e no espaço da bacia de drenagem do Rio de Carritos, o principal dos sistemas dendríticos locaisorientados para o estuário do Rio Mondego, é reconhecido sob a designação de Areias de Várzea do Lírioum conjunto de depósitos de areias finas, maturas, com características eólicas, as quais preenchem partedas linhas de cumeada e se encontram em trânsito ao longo das vertentes dos vales contíguos, selandodepressões locais da paleotopografia pós-Würm. Durante o levantamento cartográfico de campo destaunidade arenosa, foi reconhecida a sua relação directa com a ocupação da região durante o Neolítico,sobretudo a sua fase mais antiga, cardial. Desta forma, foi possivel proceder à reavaliação detalhada dosarqueossítios existentes entre a Várzea do Lírio, Asseiceira, Cubelo, Vale da Junqueira e Arruelas, tendosido reconhecidos vários locais de ocupação, para além de materiais líticos e cerâmicos dispersos comidades e tipologias que variam entre o Neolítico Antigo e o Calcolítico Final. Na sua maioria, estes locaiscorrespondem aos descritos originalmente pelo arqueólogo figueirense Santos Rocha, ficando confirmada asua localização precisa e extensão. A sua existência sugere um povoamento significativo da região duranteo Neolítico, consentâneo com o óptimo climático do Holocénico Médio. Durante este intervalo existiriamcondições ambientais particularmente favoráveis nos vales férteis com solos arenosos da bacia do Rio deCarritos, em conexão com o meio estuarino da margem norte do Mondego.

Dispositional negativity, cognition, and anxiety disorders: An integrative translational neuroscience framework
Authors: Hur Juyoen , Stockbridge Melissa D. , Fox Andrew S. , Shackman Alexander J.
Published: December 2018

When extreme, anxiety can become debilitating. Anxiety disorders, which often first emerge early in development, are common and challenging to treat, yet the underlying mechanisms have only recently begun to come into focus. Here, we review new insights into the nature and biological bases of dispositional negativity, a fundamental dimension of childhood temperament and adult personality and a prominent risk factor for the development of pediatric and adult anxiety disorders. Converging lines of epidemiological, neurobiological, and mechanistic evidence suggest that dispositional negativity increases the likelihood of psychopathology via specific neurocognitive mechanisms, including attentional biases to threat and deficits in executive control. Collectively, these observations provide an integrative translational framework for understanding the development and maintenance of anxiety disorders in adults and youth and set the stage for developing improved intervention strategies.

X vs. Y: An Analysis of Intergenerational Differences in Transport Mode Use Among Young Adults
Authors: Krueger Rico , Rashidi Taha H. , Vij Akshay
Published: December 2018

Recent research has contrasted the travel patterns of young adults of Generation Y (or, synonymously, the Millennial Generation) with the travel patterns of earlier generations of young adults such as those belonging to Generation X. Young adults of Generation Y are found to drive less and, in some contexts, are found to exhibit more multimodal travel patterns and to use public transit more often. Potential causes for these observed shifts in transport mode use have also been theorised: One view is that period effects in the form of contemporaneous changes in socio-cultural, socio-economic and socio-technical factors are responsible for the observed shifts in transport mode use; another view is that members of Generation Y have inherently different preferences and values due to formative socio-cultural, socio-economic and historical experiences. Motivated by this yet-to-be-resolved dialectic, this paper uses a hierarchical Bayesian multivariate Poisson log-normal model to examine intergenerational differences in transport mode use among young adults. The model is applied to 23 waves of the German Mobility Panel and captures between-cohort and between-period variation of parameters of interest. The trained model informs a counterfactual prediction exercise aiming to decompose intergenerational differences in transport mode use into demography-, cohort-, and period-specific effects. Our findings suggest that all three sets of effects account for intergenerational differences in transport mode use, while the absolute and relative importance of each set of effects vary across transport modes. For the period from 1998 to 2016, two thirds of the decline in car use can be ascribed to period effects; nearly all of the increase in public transit use and 42% of the increase in bicycling can be ascribed to cohort effects.

Published: December 2018

Optimization of the tactics for the patients with iatrogenic-compression-toxic lesions of the lower alveolar nerve (ICT LAN) - is an urgent task of modern medicine and dental service in particular. The solution of the above problem can be achieved by involving neuroprotective agents with a blocking effect on the excessive activity of NMDA receptors in the therapeutic tactics. This can prevent further nerve damage and trigeminal neurons site and restore the activity of the cells due to ischemic-hypoxic process in a state of hibernation. Objective — to conduct a comparative, dynamic (within 30 days) evaluation of the activity and level of neuromarkers (neuron-specific enolase and protein S100) in blood serum of patients with iatrogenic-compression-toxic lesions of the lower alveolar nerve for different therapeutic tactics, including with the addition of amantadine hydrochloride to therapy. The study involved male patients, aged 20 to 60 years, without concomitant dental pathology ICT LAN, which came with overfilling into the mandibular canal fillings material Foredent or AH-Plus. On the 7th, 14th and 30th days of the pathology in the blood serum of such patients, the isozyme determination of the enolase activity and the titration of the S100 protein were performed on the background of different therapeutic tactics, including when combining standard therapy with neuroprotector Neomidantan. Comparing neuromarker dynamics in groups without neuroprotective support (II and III) and in the conditions of appointment of Neomidantan, one can conclude that the last drug causes the most powerful de-escalation and activity of NSE and titers of the S100 protein. Therefore, Neomidantan shows neuroprotective effect on system inferior alveolar nerve/trigeminal neurons site and its function in patients with ICT LAN helps preserve morphological and functional integrity of this system, which is particularly manifested in the 30th day of therapy. Summing up the neuromarkers changes in the ICT LAN on the 30th day of observation, depending on the therapeutic tactic, the following variation series can be constructed: ICT LAN+ protocol therapy (II group) > ICT LAN+ protocol surgical and therapeutic treatment (ІІІ group) > ICT LAN + protocol therapy + Neomidantan (IV) > ICT LAN + protocol surgical and therapeutic treatment + Neomidantan (V group).

Simultaneous administration of anti-TB and antiretroviral therapy to patients with HIV contributes to the development of hepatotoxicity, which may be accompanied by a change in the laboratory and functional parameters of the liver. The purpose of the work is to investigate the functional state of the liver in HIV-infected persons with the first diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis without combining with chronic hepatitis C. 49 patients were examined. The control group consisted of 25 patients with the first diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis, the main – 24 patients with VDTB/HIV co-infection. The data of clinical, laboratory (ALT, AST, total bilirubin and its fractions, total protein of blood) and ultrasound examination before treatment and after the completion of the intensive phase of anti-TB therapy were evaluated. Clinically manifestations of intoxication were regressed more quickly in the control group. There was a statistically significant increase ALT in the main group compared to the control group after the intensive phase of treatment (p<0.05). Levels of total bilirubin and protein in both groups were not statistically different (p>0.05). The level of total bilirubin in both groups remained within the limits of physiological norm both before and after therapy. There was no significant increase those indicators, which could show the development of cholestasis syndrome. In the routine ultrasound study, conducted before and after the intensive phase, increased echogenicity of the liver, heterogeneity of the structure of the organ parenchyma, expansion of the intrahepatic ducts, hepatosplenomegaly. The presence of liver damage in patients with HIV/TB-co-infection was established at the pre-treatment stage, which wasn’t accompanied by severe clinical symptoms, consequently, in patients with HIV/TB co-infection it is expedient to conduct active monitoring of marker enzymes for cytolysis and ultrasound evaluation of liver status. The prevention of the development of medical liver damage in patients with HIV/TB co-infection contributes to the adequate implementation of an intensive phase of TB treatment.

The fight against staphylococcal infection, increasing the effectiveness of methods of prevention and treatment of diseases of staphylococcal etiology is of interest to scientists and practitioners, both in Ukraine and around the world. The urgency of this problem is growing rapidly, as there is a tendency to increase the resistance of not only staphylococci, but also other gram-positive bacteria. The spread of methicillin-resistant staphylococci restricts the choice of antibiotics for the treatment of diseases of staphylococcal etiology. Staphylococcus aureus is the most common and dangerous type, which is one of the main factors of purulent-inflammatory lesions of the skin and mucous membranes. As a result of mutations, pathogenic staphylococci acquired resistance to antibacterial drugs. The main disadvantage of modern antibiotics is their non-selectivity. As a result of mutations, pathogenic staphylococci acquired resistance to antibacterial drugs. The main disadvantage of modern antibiotics is their non-selectivity. One of the unique and promising medicinal plants, which contains a rich complex of biologically active substances (BAS), is common hops (Humulus lupulus L.). The complex of BAS (flavonoids, hormones, vitamins, bitter, phenolic compounds, essential oils) causes anti-inflammatory, bactericidal, hyposensitizing and analgesic action of hops. The purpose of this work is to determine the antistaphylococcal activity of the carbon dioxide extract of hops and to justify the development on its basis of new antimicrobial agents for the prevention and treatment of infectious and purulent-inflammatory diseases. The following methods were used: microbiological (method of diffusion into agar (well method)) and mathematical and statistical. The high antimicrobial activity of the carbon dioxide extract of hops has been established for museum test strains of the genus Staphylococcus. The results of the studies testify to the prospects of further study of the bactericidal properties of the extract of hops carbon dioxide with the aim of creating effective antimicrobial agents on its basis for the prevention and treatment of infectious and purulent-inflammatory diseases of staphylococcal etiology.
Ideofones do Changana e o Princípio da Marcação
Authors: Nhampoca Ezra Alberto Chambal
Published: December 2018

O trabalho objetiva descrever os ideofones da língua Changana tendo em conta o Princípio da Marcação, apontando para três características apresentadas por Givón (2001 e 1995): 1) Princípio meta-icônico da marcação que postula que as categorias estruturalmente mais marcadas, tendem, igualmente, a serem funcionalmente mais complexas; 2) Frequência: a categoria não marcada é mais frequente em relação à marcada; 3) Dependência do contexto, que tem a ver, segundo Givón (1995, 2001) com o fato de que a marcação não diz respeito apenas a categorias linguísticas, mas também a categorias comunicativas em que elas ocorrem.  Como referencial teórico, tivemos como base os autores Bybee (2010), Cardoso (2015), Givón (2001, 1999), entre outros. Os dados usados foram extraídos de dois instrumentos lexicográficos: o primeiro é uma base de dados constituída durante a pesquisa de Nhampoca (2010) e o segundo é o Dicionário Changana-Português de Sitoe (1996). Desses instrumentos, selecionamos 05 ideofones que possuem um verbo correspondente na língua em questão. A análise mostrou que o Princípio de Marcação é relevante para o estudo de ideofones do Changana e auxilia na distinção dos ideofones dos verbos, uma vez que verificamos que os ideofones são predicadores marcados e os verbos predicadores não marcados.
Reflexão sobre as Línguas Nacionais no Sistema de Educação em Angola
Authors: Ndombele Eduardo David
Published: December 2018

A língua é o vector identitário de uma comunidade. A partir dessa perspectiva, ela faz parte de um conjunto de pertencimentos sociais e constitui referência ao indivíduo no grupo social em que vive. No caso de Angola, cerca de 90% dos angolanos são de origem bantu e possuem esse pertencimento linguístico. No entanto, mesmo após a conquista da sua independência em 1975, Angola adoptou o português como língua oficial. Por isso, a escolarização é feita apenas em língua portuguesa, ou seja, o sistema de ensino é monolíngue. Em consonância com esse entendimento, neste estudo, foi necessário fazer um caracterização das línguas angolanas para, na sequência, fazer uma análise da variedade do português falado em Angola e em particular em alguns municípios da província do Uíge. Com a análise dos dados teóricos e dos empíricos, chegou-se à conclusão de que o uso e a prática das línguas nacionais em Angola são fundamentais para uma redefinição das políticas linguísticas no sistema Nacional de Educação.

Another benefit of implementing educational technologies may comprise group or peer work. While dealing with implementing different technologies educators are supposed to take into consideration user-friendliness, user interface, speed, support and training. Although software programs and technology devices are not always easy to use. While applying educational technologies, teacher is supposed to make sure that it is assessable for students in the class. However, the issue of security and privacy should be taken into consideration while using technology in the class. Portfolios can be utilized for different purposes but the most important reasons are to demonstrate knowledge, present and reflect upon learners’ works.

Authors: Al-Zubaidi Nassier A. G. , Hassan Aya F.
Published: December 2018

The present study examines critically the discursive representation of Arab immigrants in selected American news channels. To achieve the aim of this study, twenty news subtitles have been exacted from ABC and NBC channels. The selected news subtitles have been analyzed within van Dijk’s (2000) critical discourse analysis framework. Ten discourse categories have been examined to uncover the image of Arab immigrants in the American news channels. The image of Arab immigrants has been examined in terms of five ideological assumptions including "us vs. them", "ingroup vs. outgroup", "victims vs. agents", "positive self-presentation vs. negative other-presentation", and "threat vs. non-threat". Analysis of data reveals that Arab immigrants are portrayed negatively in the American channels under investigation and the televised discourse is greatly loaded with racist ideologies and perceptions towards Arab immigrants reflecting the standpoint of their owners. Finally, a number of conclusions and implications are presented.

Published: December 2018

This study investigated the effect of three instructional elements on achievement in computer-based mathematics instruction. The subjects were senior secondary school students who used four versions of computer-based instruction developed on compact disc to learn about the volume of solid shapes. The four versions of the programme were (1) a full version that had the three instructional elements (2) a version without objectives (3) a version without practice (4) a version without examples. The results indicated that the full package, which included objectives, practice and examples, had a significant effect on students’ achievement in the computer-based mathematics instruction. Furthermore, of the three elements, practice, had the most effect on the learners’ achievement. Implications of the findings on development of computer-based instructions are also discussed.
Too Much of Nothing
Authors: Wilson John Graham
Published: December 2018

This article draws parallels between analytical and continental
approaches to ontology. It begins with a summary of nothingness
from the standpoint of analytical philosophy. It then expands
towards the Sartrean notion of nothingness and our own experiential
intuitions of absence, extending then into what is missing in our lives
as existentially distressing; concerning, in this instance, what is missing
through the protracted absence of a dead loved one. Finally,
disturbing and possibly traumatic encounters with absence are seen
to have major consequences for our existential sense of being-in-the-
world, where the for-itself manifests as a being of lacks, often
eschewing thetic knowledge, where encounters through human consciousness
may anticipate pathological withdrawal from the world.
This is a situation that Anglo-American proponents of logico-linguistic
analysis cannot adequately account for.
“What I am! A fiend!”- An Analysis of Chillingworth’s Character in The Scarlet Letter in the light of Ghazalian Nafs e Ammara and Freudian Id
Authors: Mazhar Shumaila , Qadir Samina Amin
Published: December 2018

The present study attempts to explore the intricacies of human mind, as portrayed through Chillingworth's character in The Scarlet Letter by Hawthorne. For an in-depth analysis, two legendary intellectuals i.e., Ghazali, the famous 11th century scholar of the Muslim world and Freud, the genius of 20th century, have provided the theoretical framework. The research design is based on thematic analysis of the selected novel. A detailed study of Ghazalain nafs e ammara and Freudian id guided the interpretation of the selected novel. The analysis of Chillingworth's perverted behaviour and degrading moral standards inside the parameter of the selected theories reveals Hawthorne's psychological insight. Besides, it also provides a cognizance into the current relevance of the psychological issues in modern world, thus, strengthening our belief in the similar workings of human mind, regardless of the variances in time and space. Moreover, the evidence from this study suggests that the incorporation of Eastern and Western insights for studying literary character has the potential of becoming an effective critical approach for psychological analysis in the realm of English literature.
Justification of the need for correction selenium status in the treatment of thyrotopathy among Ukrainians (review of literature and their own observations)
Authors: Goncharova O.A.
Published: December 2018

The review analyzes the evidence base presented in scientific publications, which proves the importance of selenium for normal functioning of the thyroid gland. Presented data have connections with the involvement of selenium in the formation of thyroid hormones, their distribution in organs and systems, and peripheral metabolism. The role of the main selenoproteins participating in these processes is specified. The data of PubMed on the availability of selenium to residents of European countries is given, which is mainly estimated as suboptimal, but in a number of countries as insufficient. The author cited the results of her own studies of the level of selenium in the hair in certain groups of female patients and thyopathology, living in different regions of Ukraine. Based on the literature review and own observations, the author focuses on the relevance of the problem of selenium deficiency in Ukraine and on the need to expand research in this direction, because today there are opportunities with selenium-containing drugs to increase the effectiveness of prevention and treatment of various thypathology.
