O TRABALHO DOCENTE NAS CLASSES HOSPITALARES: SOLIDARIEDADE E AMOR
Authors: Lima José Rosamilton de
Published: May 2021

RESUMO: A pedagogia hospitalar é uma área da educação especial que visa atender pessoas que tem uma necessidade pessoal transitória causada por doença e que se encontram afastadas da escola. As classes hospitalares devem proporcionar um ambiente descontraído em que estejam presentes brinquedos, jogos, quadros coloridos, figuras, estímulos visuais, computadores, notebooks, tabletes, figuras, cartazes, mapas, livros, revistas, entre outros. O pedagogo promove aprendizagem dentro ou fora do ambiente escolar, oferecendo ao aluno conhecimento e informação, como também, desenvolve estratégias para proporcionar um aprendizado significativo para a vida do estudante no tocante a sua formação humana. Este artigo objetiva discutir o trabalho docente nas classes hospitalares como forma de provocar uma reflexão a respeito da educação inclusiva no Brasil. Utilizou-se como referencial teórico a Resolução 01/2006 do CNE, as DNEE (2001), a Constituição Federal (1998), Oliveira (2013), Fontes (2004; 2008) entre outros. O bom relacionamento entre o pedagogo hospitalar e o aluno/paciente é essencial para a construção de um ambiente seguro, confortável e propício para o ensino-aprendizagem, e consequentemente, ajuda em uma melhoria na recuperação da saúde do enfermo, porque encoraja ele para um enfrentamento com maior determinação. Portanto, é importante a implementação de classes hospitalares pelo Brasil, visto que existem muitas crianças e adolescentes que ainda não são contempladas com essa prestação de serviço. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Classes hospitalares. Pedagogo hospitalar. Aluno/paciente.

In Fall 2020, the American Talent Initiative (ATI), an alliance of high-graduation-rate colleges and universities committed to expanding access and opportunity for low- and middle-income students, established its newest community of practice (CoP) focused on academic equity. Together, the 37 CoP members explore topics related to creating equitable academic communities. One such area of focus is how institutions can more effectively utilize data to enhance equity-related projects. In January 2021, members participated in a webinar discussion on this topic, during which CoP representatives presented on how they have leveraged data in their academic equity work. This case study builds on a presentation given by Dr. Jill Sible, Associate Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education and Professor of Biological Sciences at Virginia Tech, titled, “Using data to fuel inclusive excellence at Virginia Tech.”

Published: May 2021

Na področje zagotavljanja kakovosti v visokošolskem izobraževanju v slovenskem prostoru vplivajo evropski standardi in smernice, ki določajo tudi nivoje visokošolskega kakovostnega učenja in poučevanja. Začetek vzpostavljanja sistema kakovosti v slovenskem visokem šolstvu sega do 90-ih let prejšnjega stoletja in se je pod politično-gospodarskimi in drugimi vplivi do danes spreminjalo in prilagajalo. Za prikaz kakovosti na področju visokošolskega izobraževanja se visokošolski zavodi poslužujejo različnih načinov in sistemov zagotavljanja kakovosti. Kakovost učenja in poučevanja na visokošolski ravni lahko nazorno prikazujemo z izbranimi standardi in smernicami notranjega zagotavljanja kakovosti (ESG). Zagotavljanje kakovosti v slovenskih visokošolskih zavodih predstavlja pomemben del institucionalnega in akademskega razvoja, na področju učenja in poučevanja pa pomemben nivo razvoja učinkovitih in naprednih učnih strategij, pristopov in načinov, ki omogočajo visokošolskim učiteljem in študentom optimalen profesionalni napredek in razvoj.

V pričujočem prispevku teoretično in empirično preučujemo nekatere vidike preverjanja in ocenjevanja znanja v visokošolskem izobraževanju. V teoretičnem delu prispevka najprej odgovorimo na vprašanje, zakaj ima preverjanje in ocenjevanje znanja pomembno mesto v izobraževanju, opredelimo njegove namene ter prikažemo razlike med tradicionalnimi in alternativnimi oblikami preverjanja in ocenjevanja znanja. V empiričnem delu prispevka prikazujemo rezultate raziskave, s katero smo raziskali preverjanje in ocenjevanje znanja z vidika študentov Univerze v Mariboru. Zanimalo nas je, katere oblike preverjanja in ocenjevanja znanja prevladujejo v visokošolskem izobraževanju in katere od teh imajo po mnenju študentov največ pomanjkljivosti. Rezultati kažejo, da je prevladujoča oblika preverjanja in ocenjevanja znanja v visokošolskem izobraževanju izpit, ki pa se dopolnjuje z nekaterimi drugimi alternativnimi oblikami. Na osnovi rezultatov raziskave ugotavljamo, da je še nekaj priložnosti za izboljšanje prakse na področju preverjanja in ocenjevanja znanja študentov.
Ehrenmorde im türkischen Strafrecht
Authors: Başer-Doğan Zehra
Published: May 2021

Die Zahl der Ehrenmorde in der Türkei hat in den letzten Jahren deutlich zugenommen. Mit einer Strafrechtsreform im Juni 2005 hat der türkische Gesetzgeber bewusst den Begriff des "moralischen Motivs" als qualifizierendes Merkmal des Totschlags ins Gesetz aufgenommen. Danach wird das Strafmaß des Totschlägers, der einen moralischen Mord begeht, erhöht. Auch wenn diese Neuregelung zu begrüßen ist, gibt es seit langem Unstimmigkeiten in Rechtsprechung und Literatur. Insbesondere wurde ein qualifizierter Totschlag in Fällen, in denen die Tötung des Opfers nicht durch einen Familienratsbeschluss beschlossen wurde, nicht berücksichtigt. Darüber hinaus hat es in diesen Fällen eine Strafmilderung wegen ungerechtfertigter Provokation angewandt, die bei Sittenmorden nicht anwendbar ist. Um eine fehlerhafte Anwendung der Milderungsregel zu vermeiden, sollte der Gesetzgeber den Begriff des Ehrenmotivs als Qualifikationsgrund ausdrücklich regeln.

Authors: Azad K. N. , Hasan N. , Azad K. N.
Published: May 2021

Bhairab River is an important river in the moribund delta area of Bangladesh although it is drying up gradually. The study was conducted for a period of four months at six selected drying up points of the Bhairab River, viz. Notun Khoyertola, Puratan Koshba Kazipara, Nodagram, Santola, Nurnagar and Bijoy Nagar Villages in Jashore district to identify the causes for drying up of the Bhairab River so that the flow of the river can be continued and kept alive by taking necessary steps. Data were collected through questionnaire interviews and Focus Group Discussion (FGD). The data analysis revealed that both of human made causes and natural causes were responsible for river dry. It was found that 47%, 78%, 64%, 64% and 73% respondents supported the installation of dam, establishment of bridge, excessive irrigation in agricultural land, use of chemicals, pesticides, industrial effluents etc. and irresponsible management of fishing, respectively as human made causes for drying up of the Bhairab River. Data analysis also showed that 65%, 62%, 60%, 67% and 80% participants favored climate change, siltation, rainfall pattern, temperature and drought, respectively as natural causes for drying up of the Bhairab River. From the study, establishment of dam was observed predominant among human made causes and drought was found strongest among natural causes. The result also revealed 159 and 150 positive approval with respect to human made causes and natural causes, respectively as causes for the river dry, which indicated that the human made causes were relatively more responsible than natural causes for drying up of the Bhairab River. Therefore, it is very essential to take necessary steps through individual and government participation and public awareness to improve the present condition of the Bhairab River.

Heavy metals present in surroundings tend to accumulate into the bodies of animals vide the food chains. This bioaccumulation of toxic heavy metals cause several pathological conditions, thus, imposing serious health hazards to humans and other animals. It has become extremely important to monitor levels of heavy metals for well being of humans. The present study was carried to evaluate the extent of bioaccumulation of two heavy metals in rabbit by measuring their levels in various tissues. The rabbits were divided into control (C) and two experimental groups i.e. T1 (Lead treated) and T2 (Arsenic treated). Experimental groups were orally administered lead and arsenic at concentration of 0.02 mg/L of glucose solution for a period of 28 days. Further, the concentration of above heavy metals was determined in liver, kidney and muscle using atomic absorption spectrometry. Concentration of lead in liver and kidney, while concentration of arsenic in kidney was found to be significantly higher (P≤0.05) in treatment groups as compared to the control. Higher mean concentration of lead (35.68±7.36) and arsenic (18.70±3.456) was detected in kidney in treatment groups. Lower mean concentration of lead (12.43±4.70) and arsenic (7.07±2.45) was determined in muscles in treatment groups. The lead accumulated at significantly higher rate (P≤0.05) compared to arsenic in all three tissues in treatment groups. It is concluded that heavy metals tend to bioaccumulate at relatively higher concentration in tissues involved in metabolic activities i.e. kidney and liver in rabbit.

Published: May 2021

Background: Affections of eye commonly encountered in all the species of animals. If these not treated in time, the vision may be hampered, this may impair the physical ability, utility and productivity of animals leading to economic loss to the animal owners. Corneal dystrophies like basement membrane dystrophy, stromal dystrophy, endothelial dystrophy, corneal erosions and corneal ulcerations etc., seen in the aged buffaloes. The current study was carried out to establish basic data and to provide authentic information to the clinicians on ageing changes in eyes of buffaloes. Methods: The study on age related changes in the cornea was conducted on 63 eye balls of locally available buffaloes of different breeds in and around Proddatur. These buffaloes were categorized into 3 groups based on their age i.e., group I (1-5 yrs), group II (6-10 yrs) and group III (11 yrs and above) buffaloes. The eyeballs were isolated and fixed with Davidson’s fluid. The paraffin sections of cornea were subjected for routine histological study. Result: The mean total thickness (µm) of cornea was increased from group I to III animals and it was 747.22±13.57, 853.33±11.05 and 897.22±8.06. Hence, The mean thickness (µm) of all five layers of cornea increased with advancement of age. Superficial corneal epithelial layer was made up of non keratinized stratified squamous epithelium with 6 to 7 layers at early age and 12-14 layers of cells in adult animals. The mean thickness (µm) of corneal epithelium in group I to III animals was 117.04±3.37, 122.59±2.23 and 133.71±3.55 respectively. Bowman’s membrane of cornea was measured 12.97±0.86, 17.22±0.55 and 18.71±0.68 in group I, II and III animals respectively. The mean thickness (µm) of corneal stroma in group I to III animals was 600.75±10.33, 672.22±10.46 and 690.00±5.32 respectively. This was mainly due to progressive increase in number of collagenous lamellae. The keratocytes became thin in old animals. Thickness of posterior band zone (PBZ) of Descemet’s membrane was increased with advancement of age. The mean thickness (µm) of Descemet’s membrane and endothelium together was in group I, II and III animals was 16.48±0.91, 41.29±2.25 and 54.82±1.44 respectively. The corneal endothelial cells were enlarged and increased in size in old buffaloes. The age related pigmentation was also noticed in epithelium and stroma of cornea in animals of group III. Density of sub basal nerve plexuses between the stroma and the corneal epithelium was not altered with advancement of age.

Published: May 2021

Background: The present study was aimed for the promotion and advancement of the anatomical knowledge at the gross, light microscopic and electron microscopic level in Zovawk (mizo local pig). Methods: The current investigation was done at the Instructional livestock farm, Department of Veterinary Anatomy and Histology, College of Veterinary Sciences and Animal Husbandry, Central Agricultural University, Selesih, Aizawl, Mizoram and Sophisticated Analytical Instrument Facility (SAIF), North Eastern Hill University (NEHU), Shillong, Meghalaya. Six liver samples were collected from six apparently healthy Zovawk animal of either sex and gross morphological observations were done directly after collection. Thereafter tissue samples were collected as such and were preserved in neutral buffer formalin (NBF) and in Karnovsky’s fixative for routine histology and transmission electron microscopic examination, respectively. Result: Zovawk liver shows four distinct borders, i.e. medial, lateral, dorsal and ventral border, two surfaces, i.e. parietal surface or diaphragmatic surface and caudal or visceral surface and six distinct lobes. The average weight of Zovawk liver was 1.402 kg. Weight of the liver was highly correlated with body weight of animal. Histologically, Zovawk liver was characterized with thick Glisson’s capsule and thick connective tissue septa emerging from it, which gives the hepatic lobules its hexagonal shape. Sinusoids of adjacent hepatocytes were lined by stellate shaped Kupffer cells. The ultra-structural examination of liver shows that, the hepatocytes were rich in mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum and glycogen granules. Free ribosome and well developed rER and dense lysosomal granules were common in those hepatocyte.

Authors: Singh Yadwinder , Singh Kanwaljit
Published: May 2021

Background: To study effect of various spacing and weed management practices on weed control, growth parameter, yield and yield attributes of pigeon pea variety Pusa Arhar-16, field experiments were conducted at Student’s Research Farm, Khalsa College Amritsar, Punjab, India during kharif season of 2019-20. Methods: The experiment was laid out in Split plot design with three replications. The treatments comprised of four different spacing i.e. S1 (30×10 cm), S2 (30×15 cm), S3 (40×15 cm) and S4 (50×25 cm) which were considered as main plot treatments and three weed management practices W1 (weedy check), W2 (pendimethalin @ 1.5 kg a.i. ha-1 at 1DAS) and W3 (rice straw mulch) as sub-plot treatments. Result: It was found that maximum plant height (218.2 cm) and highest leaf area index (2.104) was recorded in treatment S1 (30×10 cm) whereas treatment S4 (50×25 cm) was superior in rest of growth parameters viz. maximum crop growth rate (0.85 gram per plant per day), number of primary branches (18.2 per plant) and number of secondary branches (13.8 per plant). Among yield and yield attributes, spacing S1 (30×10 cm) showed maximum grain yield (16.29 q ha-1) and stover yield (49.29 q ha-1) whereas, maximum number of pods per plant (154.6), pod length (4.83 cm), number of seeds per pod (3.90) and 100-seed weight (7.14 grams) were recorded in spacing S4 (50×25 cm). The weed management treatments showed non-significant effect on growth and yield parameters due to weed suppressing ability of the crop. which might be due to weed suppressing ability of the crop. It may be concluded that pigeon pea cultivar Pusa Arhar-16 performed better in narrower spacing of 30×10 cm due to its dwarf nature and it also showed good smothering effect on the weeds due to its smothering effect.

Susceptibility of green gram germplasm to dry root rot such as RMG-26.
Da arte de fazer-se virtuosa: regimentos de princesas (Castela, século XV)
Authors: Oliveira Mércuri Danielle
Published: May 2021

Comumente escritos para prescrever aos príncipes como estes deveriam se conduzir e em quais exemplos deveriam se mirar, os specula principum concederam um papel relativamente secundário às mulheres. Ainda que os espelhos tenham prescrito, a partir das indicações apresentadas aos príncipes, a conduta das infantas e consortes, nenhum deles parece ter indicado diretamente as mulheres como público-alvo de seus ensinamentos, nem mesmo contemplado a relação entre mulher, coroa e poder. No entanto, na segunda metade do século XV, frente a possibilidade que se apresentou no reino castelhano de que a coroa fosse herdada e regida por uma mulher, bem como o imperativo de que a ordem e a boa condução do reino não fossem mais colocadas em risco pelos erros e vícios cometidos pelas rainhas, despertou o interesse e a urgência de que também elas fossem instruídas sobre como deveriam se conduzir. Nesse sentido, nosso fito neste artigo será analisar e cotejar alguns roteiros de governo preparados especialmente pelos clérigos Martín de Córdoba, Íñigo de Mendoza e Hernando de Talavera, que foram endereçados à rainha Isabel (1451-1504).
A Retórica como Princípio do Intelecto e da Linguagem em Tomás de Aquino
Authors: Oliveira Terezinha
Published: May 2021

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar o sentido da retórica na concepção de Tomás de Aquino (1224/25-1274). É preciso destacar que a retórica nesse autor está diretamente vinculada ao uso que os homens fazem da palavra, por conseguinte, da linguagem. Nossas formulações partem do princípio que o frade dominicano analisa a linguagem a partir dos seus dois lugares de discurso, como pregador e como mestre universitário. Para elaborar nossas considerações elegemos dois escritos do mestre Dominicano. O primeiro é a obra Comentário sobre a interpretação de Aristóteles e o segundo são duas Questões da Suma Teológica: Questões 176 e 177 – IIa-IIae. Evidenciamos que, para esse autor, nos homens, a linguagem está associada à sua condição intelectiva.
Disputatio de rhetorica et virtutibus de Alcuíno de York: crítica às recepções modernas e hipótese sobre a organização dos dois assuntos do diálogo
Authors: Costrino Artur
Published: May 2021

O diálogo de Alcuíno, De rhetorica, teve muito sucesso na Idade Média, particularmente no século IX, tendo sido copiado várias vezes e circulado em vários lugares diferentes. Entretanto, apesar desse diálogo ter experimentado uma circulação substancial imediatamente após sua composição, os comentários sobre ele, escritos por estudiosos modernos, não refletem sua popularidade medieval. Neste artigo, farei um resumo das opiniões de estudiosos prévios a respeito de Disputatio de rhetorica de Alcuíno. Meu objetivo é compreender e demonstrar como estudiosos anteriores entendiam (ou não) a dualidade do diálogo, em outras palavras, como a seção sobre retórica e a seção sobre virtudes, ao final do texto, são capazes de coexistir em harmonia. Posteriormente, explorarei a questão que a maior parte dos estudiosos prévios ignoraram completamente: como o uso de Caio Júlio Victor por Alcuíno é mais importante para a compreensão da suposta dualidade textual do que previamente pensado. Assim, concluirei com a minha hipótese do porquê Alcuíno aborda a questão das virtudes cardeais ao final do diálogo, já desconecta da discussão sobre a invenção retórica, encontrada no De inuentione de Cícero.
A retórica trovadoresca de Dom Dinis, o rei que não tira a coroa ao trovar
Authors: Mendes Ana Luiza
Published: May 2021

O presente artigo tem o objetivo de analisar a produção trovadoresca de Dom Dinis no tocante à retórica poética utilizada para a afirmação de uma identidade artística. Dom Dinis foi o maior trovador português, cuja memória ainda é retomada na atualidade para definir os contornos da cultura e identidade portuguesa. As composições dionisinas, por vezes fazendo referências aos provençais, iniciadores do movimento trovadoresco, mostra seu conhecimento da tradição, demonstrando sua educação culta e erudita que contribuiu para que estivesse em sintonia com o conhecimento da cultura em voga na sua época. Alguns estudiosos veem as menções aos provençais como uma homenagem ou, ainda, cópia. Contudo, é possível verificar que o rei-trovador utiliza esses mecanismos como base retórica para defender sua produção frente à provençal.

A SENSAÇÃO DE MORRER NA DANZA GENERAL DE LA MUERTE
Authors: Schmitt Juliana
Published: May 2021

As danças macabras medievais configuram-se como uma elaboração iconográfica e poética do momento da morte. O fim da vida é representado pela chegada de um cadáver, ou da Morte, que carrega um vivo consigo. Cada vertente do gênero oferece diferentes configurações desse encontro, com variações tanto em seus elementos imagéticos quanto textuais. Nesse artigo, nosso foco concentra-se na Danza General de la Muerte, manuscrito em castelhano, provavelmente do século XV, pertencente ao acervo da Biblioteca do Mosteiro do Escorial, na Espanha. Analisaremos as reações de alguns de seus personagens diante da constatação de seu óbito e como os sintomas da degeneração física são percebidos e sentidos. Nos deteremos mais minuciosamente no personagem do Médico, que oferece maiores pistas em relação ao entendimento da época sobre os males que acometem o corpo. Deste modo, mesmo sem se referir a enfermidades específicas, é possível observar de que maneira se manifesta a chegada da morte no poema.

Random Polygons and Optimal Extrapolation Estimates of pi
Authors: Wang Shasha , Xu Wen-Qing , Liu Jitao
Published: May 2021

We construct optimal extrapolation estimates of π based on random polygons generated by n independent points uniformly distributed on a unit circle in R2. While the semiperimeters and areas of these random n-gons converge to π almost surely and are asymptotically normal as n → ∞, in this paper we develop various extrapolation processes to further accelerate such convergence. By simultaneously considering the random n-gons and suitably constructed random 2n-gons and then optimizing over functionals of the semiperimeters and areas of these random polygons, we derive several new estimates of π with faster convergence rates. These extrapolation improvements are also shown to be asymptotically normal as n → ∞.

Published: May 2021

Predicting the trend of stock prices is a central topic in financial engineering. Given the complexity and nonlinearity of the underlying processes we consider the use of neural networks in general and sentiment analysis in particular for the analysis of financial time series. As one of the biggest social media platforms with a user base across the world, Twitter offers a huge potential for such sentiment analysis. In fact, stocks themselves are a popular topic in Twitter discussions. Due to the real-time nature of the collective information quasi contemporaneous information can be harvested for the prediction of financial trends. In this study, we give an introduction in financial feature engineering as well as in the architecture of a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) to tackle the highly nonlinear problem of forecasting stock prices. This paper presents a guide for collecting past tweets, processing for sentiment analysis and combining them with technical financial indicatorsto forecast the stock prices of Apple 30m and 60m ahead. A LSTM with lagged close price is used as a baseline model. We are able to show that a combination of financial and Twitter features can outperform the baseline in all settings. The code to fully replicate our forecasting approach is available in the Appendix.
A Novel Wavelet-based Optimal Linear Quadratic Tracker for Time-varying Systems with Multiple Delays
Authors: Malmir Iman
Published: May 2021

A novel method for solving optimal tracking control of linear quadratic time-varying systems with differentforms of time delays in state and input variables and with constraints is presented in this paper. Using the concepts of two powerful wavelets, Legendre and Chebyshev wavelets, we convert the optimal tracking problem to a static optimization one. The method is presented in a general from by which one can utilize it by other wavelets. The proposed method has the ability to solve the problems with systems of integer and fractional orders. After determining open-loop solutions of time-delay tracking systems, closed-loop suboptimal controller is designed. A highly successful wavelet-based suboptimal controller is introduced in this work. This alternative method is applied on some optimal tracking systems.

Authors: Abramek Karol Franciszek , Osipowicz Tomasz , Mozga Łukasz
Published: May 2021

The article presents the possibilities of using artificial intelligence methods to model the injection doses of a modern Common Rail (CR) fuel injector. The presented neural network solution belongs to the experimental models known as black boxes in mechatronics. The backpropagation algorithm and its Levenberg-Marquardt expansion were used for the simulation. The analysis showed that there is a good match between the measurements and the computational model. The proposed solution can be used in the processes of diagnosing not only elements of the injection equipment, but also the internal combustion engine.

Authors:   Vernadsky Crimea Federal University, Kuryanova Valeriya V.
Published: May 2021

The article, based on the material of M.A. Voloshin’s work, examines the elements of Tolstoy’s myth. The biographical myth of L.N. Tolstoy, which has been actively developing for a century and a half until today, but at the beginning of the 20th century, when Tolstoy’s departure from his own home became popular, it became especially relevant. The structure of the Tolstoy’s myth is analyzed, the mythologies associated with it (mythologized constant representations) created and reproduced by M.A. Voloshin in accordance with his own poetic worldview, personal attitude to the work and personality of L.N. Tolstoy. In the light of the problem posed, the author examines the poet's books “The Burning Bush” and “The Ways of Cain”. Attention is focused on the originality of Tolstoy’s text in the creative heritage of Voloshin, based on the proximity of worldviews, the sacralization of the image of the great writer. The poet interprets Tolstoy's mythologem about non-resistance to evil by violence in a completely new way. In the attempts of the great artist to protect himself and others from evil, Voloshin sees the reason for his tragic departure from Yasnaya Polyana. The question is raised about the features of the perception of this myth in the culture and literature of the first third of the XX century.

Bunin. On the material in the essay and prose of the writer, the mythosuggestive potential is revealed not only of the precedent phenomenon, which is the very name of the Hebrew forefather, but also of the biblical text about the ancestor of all peoples as a whole. Accumulating sacred meanings associated with the Old Testament patriarch in the Jewish, Christian and Muslim traditions, I.A. Bunin actualizes various mythosugets and mythomotifs dating back to the Holy Scriptures: the marriage of Abraham and Sarah, projecting on the history of Adam and Eve, Abraham’s good news about the birth of Isaac Particular attention is paid to the comprehension of the meal of Abraham — the Old Testament Trinity, which was extremely important for I.A. Bunin.

Published: May 2021

The article considers the various methods used by V. Pelevin in order to address the legacy of A. Blok. The writer shows that Pelevin quotes and refers to Blok indirectly, through the presence of his mythologemes in the modern mass consciousness. Through quotation, the reader is led into discourses formed in the cultural and informational space from which the imagery and problems of Pelevin’s works are constructed. This analysis of Pelevin’s references to Blok shows how in contemporary collective consciousness the various elements of Blok’s heritage have, for the main part, taken on displaced or reduced meanings. For the first time we note the typological similarity of the writer’s creative strategies with the modernist assimilation of the new media reality. Pelevin’s direct reference to Blok's article “Poetry of Charms and Spells” and its artistic interpretation confirms that Pelevin’s work has a consistent and central educational aim: the exposure of manipulative technologies and deconstructing of “zombification”. This somewhat complicates the conventional view of Pelevin’s work as being a variant of postmodernism, a literary movement usually considered to lack any such positive programme.

Development process needs lands as natural resources. Unfortunately, availability of land is relatively limited. Therefore, it needs releasing process of forestland to become non forestland. In the process of releasing the forestland, there are some policies which need stakeholders to consider so the minimum required forestland of 30% is fulfilled. Releasing forestland area is possible to undertake on non-productive forest conversion area which is also for the government agrarian reform programs which is called Nawacita. The objective of this research is tooffer answer about the indicative forestland which can be used for development needs, particularly for poor people who live near the forest. The results indicate that non-productive of conversion forest can provide land for development in Riau Province for about 205,847.86 hectares (93.01%) from the total conversion forest area based on agrarian reform program. Permanent forested land which needs to be maintained as forest area is 1,102.42 hectares, because most of the area are still primary forests. For the effectiveness of releasing conversion forest area, socialization programs to inform the community is needed.

Published: May 2021

Forest and land fires occur almost every year in Indonesia. They dominantly befall in Sumatra and Kalimantan. Most of the fire incidents in Indonesia are caused by anthropogenic factors. Moreover, practices of land management are indicated to have a strong relationship to the fires. Village-based fire control becomes one of approaches applied by the government. This study is conducted to reveal relational characteristics between village-based land management practices and fire events, principally in peatland areas, with a focused area in Kalimantan. Practices of land management will be analised by the characteristics of existing official land use, while fire events will be identified by the existence and intensity of hotspots. The method applied in this research is spatio-temporal analysis based on fire density analysis. Fire incidents occur from July to November, with the peak point occurrence is in September. Area in unmanaged land has increased the potency of fire events than in forest type and in other managed land cover types. Fires located in peatland also generate potential of fires significantly than in mineral land. Further, land cover and land type aspects together with village fire density can be employed as the priority in implementing policy on village-based fire control.

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) has a higher mRNA expression of programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) which is a ligand to programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1). The binding of the ligand leads to suppressed activity of T-cell-mediated immune response against cancer cells. The approval of anti-PD-L1 drugs including pembrolizumab and atezolizumab in subgroups of TNBC offer potential improvement to the current treatment regimens available for TNBC. We conducted a meta-analysis to review the efficacy of pembrolizumab and atezolizumab for the treatment of TNBC in both adjuvant and neo-adjuvant settings. A systematic strategy was used as per the PRISMA 2020 statement. All statistical analyses were conducted using Review Manager 5.4. Outcome measures included objective response rate, progression free survival, overall survival in adjuvant therapy groups, and pathological complete response rates in neoadjuvant groups. Six clinical trials were included. For adjuvant therapies, the ORR (OR=1.26, P = 0.04) of Atezolizumab/Pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy was higher in intention to treat (ITT) arms than the placebo groups in TNBC. A positive effect size was found for PFS in the ITT arms (Cohen’s d = 1.55, P<0.001). The Atezolizumab plus chemotherapy group had a positive effect size for OS compared to the control groups (Cohen’s d = 0.52, P<0.001). In the neo-adjuvant setting, patients in ITT arms had higher pCR rates as compared to the control groups (OR= 1.61, P = 0.001). Our findings collate evidence of pembrolizumab and atezolizumab as a viable treatment option among patients with TNBC with PDL1+ subgroups deriving benefits.
