Published: March 2020

BACKGROUND: The design of Patient Management and Information Systems during outbreaks of highly infectious diseases in low resource environments poses special challenges. Such systems necessitate special functional and design requirements to support patient care under austere conditions. A primary concern is to minimize spread of the disease to caregivers and non-infected individuals. Patient management in these conditions requires the design and development of systems customized for complex patient and caregiver workflows. OBJECTIVE: Design and develop a Patient Management and Information System for healthcare facilities on the frontlines of outbreaks of highly infectious diseases in low resource environments. METHODS: A team composed of clinicians with experience in Ebola care in affected areas of Africa and informaticians developed detailed hardware, software and functionality requirements. These were translated into hardware designs, software architectures, screen and interface designs and implemented using Common Off-The-Shelf hardware. An experimental app development system was used to develop mHealth software modules. RESULTS: The system was developed and implemented as a proof of concept. Acceptance testing showed that the system met functionality requirements. CONCLUSION: Useful Patient Management and Information systems can be developed and implemented for frontline use in low-resource environments during outbreaks of highly infectious diseases.

TO WHAT EXTENT DOES EXPOSURE TO PRENATAL STRESS AFFECT OFFSPRING BEHAVIOURAL OUTCOMES
Authors: Shah Areej-Noor Yousaf
Published: March 2020

Background: The gestational environment influences longer-term child developmental outcomes. Various studies have been conducted to determine a correlation between prenatal stress and offspring behavioural outcomes. The objectives of this study is to review current literature relating prenatal exposure to different types of stress, including psychological (anxiety, perceived stress) and acute (adverse life events), to offspring behavioural outcomes. Methods: Since a significant body of literature exists on this topic, it was important to systematically review evidence found using online databases such as MEDLINE and Pubmed. Articles were selected based on language, if they were published after 2002, sample size, methodology, whether or not they were in a peer-reviewed journal, and the nature of the stressor - this review considers both acute and psychological stress. Results: More genetically informed studies should first take place before causation can be determined, but there is indubitably a relationship between prenatal stress and negative child behavioural outcomes. Conclusion: There is ample evidence of an association between maternal stress during gestation and negative offspring behavioural outcomes although a clear causative relationship cannot be established. The mechanism by which psychological stress affects behavioural outcomes are not fully known and more research could be done in future.

Política económica del gobierno de España 2011-2015: estabilidad lograda, fractura persistente
Authors: Redacción Consejo de
Published: March 2020

Siguiendo la costumbre de nuestra revista, analizar y evaluar las políticas económicas de los Gobiernos que terminan una legislatura, este editorial trata sobre la etapa del Gobierno Rajoy de 2011 a 2015. Existe un amplio consenso sobre la obligación de una política de austeridad que el marco europeo imponía en 2011 para evitar la intervención. En el contexto europeo y español de aquel año, el Gobierno no tenía otra salida que la estabilidad presupuestaria con la contención del gasto público. Desde el supuesto de que la política económica es ante todo política, aunque una de sus formas complejas, y de que toda política económica debe tener en cuenta los condicionamientos del contexto inmediato que más influencia ejerce en aquélla, nuestro análisis de ésta intenta explicar el comportamiento de los agentes públicos, esencialmente el Gobierno, en ese período.

El editorial parte del análisis de la situación en diciembre de 2011, marcada por la recesión y por un apoyo electoral muy relevante al partido llamado entonces a formar gobierno; después se refiere al primer bienio (2012-2013), centrado en los ajustes y en el activismo reformista para ganar credibilidad interior y competitividad exterior y así “evitar el rescate”, para lo cual se iniciaron duras políticas de ajustes y reformas en el mercado de trabajo y en la reestructuración bancaria, con resultados como estos: crecimiento económico, estabilidad presupuestaria e impopularidad de los ajustes. El segundo bienio (2014-2015) ha estado marcado por la “salida de la crisis”, cuyos objetivos eran generar más amplias expectativas y aumentar los votos posibles para el Gobierno. En esta etapa han existido algunas políticas de reformas fallidas, además de que parte importante de la población haya sufrido las consecuencias sociales de la austeridad con un aumento creciente de la fractura social. En la conclusión del editorial sobre esta legislatura compleja, marcada por una recuperación económica con dificultades, subrayamos el logro de la estabilidad presupuestaria y la creciente fractura social, de la que han derivado una grave fragmentación política, territorial y generacional.

En estos años ha habido mucha economía, pero menos política, ha habido gestión, pero no liderazgo del Estado y de su política económica. La economía española vive desde 2014 una recuperación con dificultades. Si el objetivo era simplemente “salir del abismo económico”, hay que concluir que éste se ha logrado; si pensamos “a qué coste”, probablemente éste puede considerarse demasiado alto.
La huella de Juan XXIII en la Constitución pastoral Gaudium et spes
Authors: Camacho Laraña Ildefonso
Published: March 2020

El discurso de apertura del Concilio Vaticano II, Gaudet mater Ecclesia, es la primera clave que propone el autor para captar la relación profunda de Gaudium et spes y el magisterio de Juan XXIII. Las claves de aquel discurso, distinción de la fe y la forma de expresarla, la misericordia frente a la denuncia de los profetas de calamidades, los signos de los tiempos y la pastoralidad conciliar. La parte central el estudio se refiere al influjo de los dos grandes documentos sociales de Juan XXIII, Mater et magistra (1961) y Pacem in terris (1963) en el Concilio y en concreto en la Gaudium et spes, a la hora de esbozar una nueva relación entre Iglesia y sociedad. Por eso el autor afirma que esta constitución conciliar es “la mejor expresión” de que Juan XXIII quiso que fuera el concilio. En la asimilación de las novedades de Gaudium et spes tuvo un influjo determinante Pablo VI, obviamente. El estudio termina esbozando dos líneas de fuerza: la dialéctica de fondo establecida entre tradición y renovación, lo que lleva a afirmar que Gaudium et spes no fue un término de llegada sino un punto de partida.

Electricity is the main source of energy in human life. The development of human life is greatly influenced by the presence of electrical energy. Therefore it is necessary to conduct research related to the generation of electrical energy on a small scale (micro). One alternative electricity generation by changing the motion energy is done by utilizing the flow of water. Water flow with low discharge and head is easily found in several places, especially small rivers or irrigation channels. Utilization of low flow head and discharge is a great potential to be able to produce small-scale (micro) electrical energy. In this research, modeling of low flow and low head discharge will be carried out to find out how much potential the electrical energy can generate. There are 3 experiments namely water power, whirlpool, high fall. Experiment 1 with a head of 50 meters found 1,414 watts of water power with a discharge rate of 17.3 liters/minute on a 1 "diameter pipe. In experiment 2 the performance of the tool could not produce a vortex flow according to the plan, because the cross-sectional area was not comparable to the basin's outer hole and only produced vertices at a depth of 10 cm flow and produced a vortex radius of 1 cm. In Experiment 3 the performance of the tool can run well the stability of the discharge generated from the sedative bath shows that the measured flow velocity is in accordance with the theoretical flow rate conditions. Ie the speed of flow increases due to high fall.

Sverdlovsk Region is one of the ten largest industrial regions, which accounts for 50.0 % of the total industrial production of the Russian Federation. The aim of the study is a comparative assessment of malignant skin neoplasms (MNS) incidence in the administrative districts of a large industrial region - the Sverdlovsk Region. Methods. We analyzed the data of state statistical reporting, approved by the Order of Rosstat dated December 29, 2011 No. 520 (as amended on December 30, 2015), annual forms of reporting documentation - form No. 7, form No. 35 for the period from 2003 to 2017 in the Sverdlovsk Region. The morbidity and mortality rates standardized by the world age standard were calculated, gender indicators, the morbidity structure in urban districts were estimated. Results. There was an increase in the incidence of MNS - both skin melanoma (SM) and skin cancer (SC) (an intensive increase by 49.1 and 69.8 %, respectively). The overall increase of SM and SC was higher among women: the increase of SM was 23.1 %, in men - 13.6; SC - women 52.7 %, men 40.5. Number of patients with SM of working age has increased by 41.7 % since 2003. Mortality from MNS has a tendency to decrease; however, the rates of first-year mortality are at a high level. Conclusion. There is an increase in the incidence of MNS in Sverdlovsk region - both SM and SC. However, the incidence rates of SC do not exceed the average Russian levels, in contrast to SM for the past 15 years. The highest incidence of MNS cases is registered on territories with functioning industrial enterprises (Gornozavodskoy and Yuzhniy Administrative Districts, Yekaterinburg) which require further study and preventive measures.

20. yüzyılın başında çok çeşitli etnik ve dini unsuru barındıran ve İmparatorluğun Rumeli vilayetlerinin metropolü kabul edilen Selanik vilayeti, depremsellik açısından Osmanlı Makedonya’sının en riskli ve aktif sismik bölgelerinden biridir. Selanik, Balkanların en aktif sismotektonik bölgelerden biri olan Sevomacedonion kütlesinin bitişiğindeki Aios – Vardar sismojeni bölgesinde yer almaktadır. Selanik’te 20. yüzyılda Magnitude (depremin büyüklüğü) M=6.0’dan büyük beş deprem meydana geldi. 5 Temmuz 1902 tarihinde meydana gelen ve merkez üssü Güvezne (Assiros) köyü olarak tahmin edilen deprem yüzyılın başında meydana gelen ilk büyük depremdi. Güvezne (Assiros) depremi, Assiros-Analipsi Fay sistemi ve Langaza-Volvi hattının sismik faaliyetlerinin belirlenmesinde önemli bir depremdir. Araştırmalarda depremin büyüklüğüyle ilgili 6.6’ya varan bir dizi büyüklük verilmektedir. Deprem Selanik vilayetinin deprem tarihinin araştırılması ve bölgenin risk haritasının ortaya çıkarılması için oldukça önemlidir.
5 Temmuz 1902 tarihinde meydana gelen deprem Selanik vilayetinde etkili olmakla birlikte asıl yıkıcı etkisini Langaza ve Güvezne’de göstermiştir. Depremde 4 kişi hayatını kaybetmiş, Langaza ve Güvezne köyünde birçok ev yıkılmış ve harap olmuştur. Ana depremden önce meydana gelen öncü şoklar daha fazla can kaybının yaşanmamasını sağlamıştır. Bu çalışmada Selanik vilayetinde 5 Temmuz 1902 tarihinde meydan gelen deprem ve etkileri incelenecektir. Bununla birlikte afet yönetimi konusunda Osmanlı hükümeti ve Selanik valiliğinin yaptığı çalışmalara değinilecektir.

Karşılaştırmalı edebiyat bilimi özü itibariyle iki ya da daha fazla sayıdaki eseri içerik ve biçim olarak inceler ve irdelenen metinler arasında benzerlik ve farklılık arar. Karşılaştırmalı edebiyat bilimi, farklı ulus edebiyatlarından eserlerin incelenmesi doğrultusunda araştırma sahasını gelişti-rir ve dünya edebiyatı kavramının içinin doldurulmasına katkıda bulunur.
Söz konusu bu disiplin başta Avrupa ve Amerika olmak üzere pek çok coğrafyada faaliyet gös-termekte ve öne sürülen yeni yaklaşımlarla gelişmektedir. Karşılaştırmalı edebiyat biliminin önde gelen iki ekolüyse Fransız ve Amerikan ekolleridir. Fransız ekolü, yoğunlukla etki üzerine eğildiği için “etki araştırmaları” olarak da adlandırılırken, Amerikan ekolü paralellik üzerine odaklanmasıy-la “analoji araştırmaları” olarak nitelendirilmektedir. Söz konusu bu iki ekol, dünyadaki karşılaş-tırmalı edebiyat çalışmalarında on yıllardır belirleyici özellikte olmuştur.
Bu makalede ele alınan Varyasyon kuramı ise 2000’li yıllarda Çinli karşılaştırmalı edebiyat bilimci Shunqing Cao tarafından ortaya atılmıştır. Bu kuram karşılaştırmalı edebiyatın Batı kökenli ekol-lerinin, günümüz dünyasındaki çalışmalar için yeterli olmadığı düşüncesiyle oluşturulmuştur. Çin ekolü olarak da adlandırılan bu yaklaşım, karşılaştırmalı edebiyat çalışmalarında farklılıkları karşı-laştırmanın kuramsal çerçevesini oluşturur ve benzerlikler kadar farklılıkların da önemli olduğu-nun altını çizer.
Bu çalışmayla, Fransız ve Amerikan ekolleri değerlendirilerek, Varyasyon kuramının bu iki ekole getirdiği eleştirilerle ele alınacaktır. Ayrıca Varyasyon kuramı genel özellikleriyle tanıtılmaya çalı-şılacaktır. Çalışmada, kurama yönelik eleştiriler ve önerilerle birlikte, Varyasyon kuramının Türki-ye’de yapılacak karşılaştırmalı edebiyat çalışmaları için uygun bir yaklaşım olup olmadığı da tartışılacaktır.

MutYH-associated polyposis (MAP) is hereditary syndrome with autosomal recessive inheritance, caused by biallelic mutation in MutYH gene and characterized by presence of multiple (20 and more) polyps in the bowel and increased life-time risk of colorectal cancer. At the same time finding 2 heterozygous mutations in MutYH gene (by Sanger method) doesn`t mean the diagnosis of MAP because of need to confirm their biallelic location. This case-report demonstrates difficulties in diagnostic of MAP caused by inability to investigate parent DNA samples and our options for solution of this problem.

Postharvest treatment by 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) for ‘Szampion’ cultivar apples inhibits ripening of climacteric fruit by blocking ethylene receptors, preventing ethylene from binding and eliciting its action. It is also possible to apply 1-MCP preharvest, which so far has not been studied for the ‘Szampion’ cultivar. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of preharvest 1-MCP treatment on the fruit quality parameters of cold-stored ‘Szampion’ cultivar apples in a Polish experiment. Two identical groups of apple trees (6 years, experimental orchard in Warsaw) were included, to obtain studied apples (preharvest 1-MCP treatment with HarvistaTM, 150 g/ha, 7 days before the optimum harvesting window, OHW) and control apples (1-MCP not applied). Apples for the studied group were harvested twice—on 28 September (OHW) and 24 October (delayed harvesting)—and for control group once—on 28 September, as before 24 October the majority of apples fell from trees. Afterwards, apples were stored in an Ultra Low Oxygen chamber (1.2% CO2, 1.2% O2). Apples were assessed in the preharvest period (weekly, six measurements for the studied group, and five measurements for the control group) and postharvest period (monthly, three measurements separately for each harvest time for the studied group and control group). The following parameters were assessed: internal ethylene content (IEC), firmness, total soluble solids (TSS) content, starch index, Streif index, titratable acidity (TA), and color for blush. For the preharvest period, statistically significant differences between the studied group and the control group were observed for IEC, the a* coordinate of color (p < 0.05; for apples treated with 1-MCP lower results), firmness, Streif index, TA (p < 0.05; higher results), and starch index (p < 0.05; no defined trend). For the postharvest period, statistically significant differences between the studied group and the control group were observed for apples harvested in the OHW for firmness (p < 0.05; for apples treated with 1-MCP higher results) and IEC (p < 0.05; no defined trend), while for delayed harvesting the differences were only minor. It may be concluded, that preharvest 1-MCP application makes it possible not only to obtain better results for ‘Szampion’ cultivar apples’ quality parameters, but also allows delayed harvesting without deterioration in quality.
Spatial and Temporal Variability of Spring Barley Yield and Quality Quantified by Crop Simulation Model

Nitrogen fertilization is the most critical agronomic input affecting barley production and farm profitability. The strict quality requirements for malting barley are challenging to achieve for farmers. In addition, soil variability and weather conditions can affect barley yield and quality. Thus, the objectives of this study are to (a) quantify the variability of soil properties, and (b) use spatial data in a crop simulation model, quantifying the impacts of climate−soil interactions on the barley crop yield and grain quality. Based on historical yield maps, a commercial field was divided into different yield stability zone levels. The Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer model was used to evaluate soil and crop spatial data. The bulk density affected the soil water content and soil mineral N and hence the crop-growing conditions in each yield stability zone. Our observed and simulated results showed that 120 kg N ha−1 is the optimal rate to increase grain yield while still keeping within the grain N% requirements for malting quality. This study shows the great value of integrating crop modeling with on−farm experimental data for improving understanding of the factors which affect site−specific N fertilization of barley.

An increasing global population of over 4.5 billion people drives increasing demand for calories—30% of which are satisfied by grain crops, such as maize. High-density farming practices have been implemented but tend to deplete the soil of essential elements resulting in lower nutritional value, notably iron, of cultivated crops. Low iron content in staple crops can contribute over time to severe, even fatal, micronutrient deficiencies. Enhancing grain iron content using post-harvest biofortification strategies can be costly. However, field inoculation using biologics like Azospirillum brasilense (HM053) can be a cost-effective alternative to improving crop nutritional value. Using ion chromatography with chemiluminescence detection, we have shown that maize seeds harvested from outdoor pot-grown plants possessed a four-fold higher iron content as ferrous iron (Fe+2) compared to non-inoculated plants. Seeds from A. brasilense HM053-inoculated plants also contained approximately 13 nmol of ferritin per ground dried weight of kernel compared to 3 nmol from non-inoculated plants. In addition, A. brasilense HM053 inoculation increased crop yield 30–50% relative to non-inoculated plants.

Light quality and nutrient availability are the primary factors that influence plant growth and development. In a research context of improving indoor plant cultivation while lowering environmental impact practices, we investigated the effect of different light spectra, three provided by light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and one by a fluorescent lamp, on the morpho-physiology of Pisum sativum L. seedlings grown in the presence/absence of biochar. We found that all morpho-physiological traits are sensitive to changes in the red-to-far-red light (R:FR) ratio related to the light spectra used. In particular, seedlings that were grown with a LED type characterized by the lowest R:FR ratio (~2.7; AP67), showed good plant development, both above- and belowground, especially when biochar was present. Biochar alone did not affect the physiological traits, which were influenced by the interplay with lighting type. AP67 LED type had a negative impact only on leaf fluorescence emission in light conditions, which was further exacerbated by the addition of biochar to the growing media. However, we found that the combination of biochar with a specific optimal light spectrum may have a synergetic effect enhancing pea seedling physiological performances and fruit yield and fostering desired traits. This is a promising strategy for indoor plant production while respecting the environment.
