Published: May 2020

Досліджено проблеми розвитку сфери житлово-комунальних послуг (ЖКП) українських міст і розроблено пропозиції щодо її реформування на основі використання економічних і правових підходів. Економічні підходи пов'язані з розвитком економіки сфери ЖКП міста з урахуванням ринкових умов господарювання. Правові підходи включають юридичне забезпечення регулювання відносин у процесі економічного розвитку сфери ЖКП міста. Охарактеризовано техніко-технологічні, соціально-економічні, інституційно-правові, організаційно-просторові ознаки сфери ЖКП, оцінено її стан в українських містах, виявлено проблеми, які перешкоджають її розвитку і вирішення яких вимагає проведення реформ. Визначено, що реформування сфери ЖКП українських міст спрямоване на підвищення фінансової забезпеченості, посилення інституційної узгодженості, прозорості тарифоутворення, соціальної відповідальності та інноваційності діяльності. Це передбачає продовження децентралізації влади і розширення повноважень органів місцевого самоврядування, демонополізацію і поглиблення конкуренції на ринку житлово-комунальних послуг, інноваційний розвиток підприємств міського господарства, модернізацію комунальної інфраструктури, забезпечення інформаційної прозорості та залучення громадськості до прийняття рішень. Проаналізовано зарубіжний досвід реформування сфери ЖКП і можливості його адаптації для українських міст. Зокрема, ідеться про моделі організації ринку житлових і комунальних послуг, формування ринкових інститутів (включаючи взаємодію ОСББ і керуючих компаній), механізми тарифоутворення і тарифорегулювання, використання партиципаторного бюджетування і просторового міжмуніципального співробітництва. Для вирішення окремих завдань реформування сфери ЖКП міста розроблено пропозиції щодо використання економіко-правових інструментів, які включають: інституційно-інвестиційний підхід до об’єднання зусиль учасників ринку ЖКП; формування умов дотримання принципу «кількість – якість – вартість послуг» відповідно до реалізації Закону України «Про житлово-комунальні послуги»; шляхи підвищення публічності та прозорості сфери ЖКП на основі використання місцевих ініціатив, державно-приватного партнерства, організації публічного консультування з громадськістю.

Retrieving a Soul Part that Fractured During Trauma
Authors: Simington Jane , Wagner Joan I J
Published: May 2020

A post-traumatic response includes alterations in functioning on the physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual levels. Interest in using complementary therapies resulted from PTSD patient requests for modalities that address their spiritual needs. The positive neurophysiology effects on PTSD symptoms produced by spiritual practices generates renewed interest in the approaches to the psyche proposed by Carl Jung, and also in traditional cultural practices for healing trauma. In traditional worldviews the shock of trauma can cause a part of the soul to fracture off and remain trapped in a non-ordinary reality. Jung encouraged therapeutic regression to connect with the lost part. Regression therapy gained support following MRI studies showing that trauma narratives are replayed through the brain’s right hemisphere. MRI studies support research showing that right hemisphere options, such as visualization, increase the possibility for healing trauma. The purpose of this research was to determine if there were pre- and post-intervention differences when using spiritually-focused guided visualization to regress subjects to a traumatic event, there to reclaim and reintegrate a soul part that had fractured off during trauma. Eight study participants from an Indigenous Community in Canada participated. Pre-to-post score differences on the PCL-5 suggest a positive and clinically meaningful response to the intervention. The themes derived from the narrative descriptions indicate that the soul retrieval intervention increased the well-being of the study participants.
Amamentação natural, artificial e maloclusão: há correlação?
Authors: Messias Agnes Martins , Long Sucena Matuk , Ferreira Maria Cristina Duarte , Josgrillberg Érika , Jóias Renata Pilli
Published: May 2020

Introdução: o aleitamento materno é um fator essencial para o correto desenvolvimento do sistema estomatognático. Em geral crianças que não recebem aleitamento materno apresentam tendência a maloclusão, porque dele a criança recebe os estímulos necessários para seu desenvolvimento craniofacial. Objetivo: verificar a possível correlação entre tipo e tempo de aleitamento e desenvolvimento de maloclusões. Método: realizou-se exame clinico em 33 crianças com idade de 4 a 13 anos que buscaram atendimento na faculdade privada Universidade Metodista de São Paulo, em São Bernardo do Campo, SP. Os dados foram expressos em porcentagem e realizados ANOVA e teste de Tukey post hoc (p<0,05%). Resultados: Foi observado que 69,7% das crianças receberam aleitamento artificial e 30,3% aleitamento natural (p=0,001), sendo exclusivo ou não. 6,1% das crianças apresentavam dentadura decídua, 84,8% mista e 9,1% permanente. Nas dentaduras mista e permanente 54,8% apresentavam Classe I, 35,5% Classe II, e 9,7% Classe III de Angle. Das crianças analisadas 40,0% apresentavam sobressaliência e/ou sobremordida acentuada; 72,7% não apresentaram apinhamento contra 27,3% que apresentaram. Em 36,4% observou-se mordida cruzada sendo que 50,0% delas apresentava mordida cruzada posterior. Conclusão: Não houve correlação entre maior chance de desenvolver maloclusão e maior tempo de aleitamento natural (p=0,359) ou artificial (p=0,244). O maior tempo de amamentação não indicará, necessariamente, maior tendência a maloclusão.
Soft-Tissue Changes After Using Collagen Matrix Seal or Collagen Sponge With Allograft in Ridge Preservation: A Randomized Controlled Volumetric Study
Authors: Natto Zuhair S. , Parashis Andreas O. , Jeong Y. Natalie
Published: May 2020

The objective of this study is to assess alterations in buccal soft-tissue contour after alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) using either a collagen matrix seal (CMS) or a collagen sponge (CS) as barriers with freeze-dried bone allograft (FDBA). Participants (28 total) were randomly assigned to the CMS group or CS group (14 participants each). The same clinical steps were used in both barriers. Cast models were taken at baseline and 4 months, and both models were then optically scanned and digitally superimposed. Volumetric, surface, and distance-adjusted measurements were calculated to assess buccal soft-tissue alterations. Surface area and volume loss in the CMS group were observed to be 71.44 ± 1189.09 mm2 and 239.58 ± 231.89 mm3, respectively. The CS group showed measurements of 139.56 ± 557.92 mm2 and 337.23 ± 310.18 mm3. Mean buccal soft-tissue loss and minimum-maximum distance loss were less in the CMS group (0.88 ± 0.52 mm and 0.2–2.15 mm, respectively) as compared with the CS group (1.63 ± 1.03 mm and 0.3–3.68 mm, respectively), with no statistically significant difference between the groups (P = .2742). Both alveolar ridge preservation barriers were unable to entirely prevent soft-tissue contour changes after extraction. However, collagen matrix seal application was slightly better in minimizing the amount of soft-tissue reduction compared with the CS.
Horses’ Senses Involvement in Food Location and Selection
Authors: CULDA Carla Andreea , STERMIN Alexandru Nicolae
Published: May 2020

Senses are an important part of the interaction with the environment. Previous studies has been established that horses use smell and taste in the selection of their food. The involvement of sight in the selection process has not been clarified up to this study. Here, we investigate the involvement of senses in the selection process of food, also the proportion in which, each senses are involved and we evaluate the horses preferences for different colors. Two experiments have been designed and carried out with two racing horses The results obtained have demonstrated that the sight is the main sense in the location of the food, followed by the sense of olfactory organ involved in selecting plants ingested and the sense of taste which contributes less to the selection. There has also been identified a preference of the envolved horses for the pink color used in this experiment.

Published: May 2020

The cannabis plant was discovered 10,000 years ago without its exact use being known in China and Central Asia. Equally highly interested in this plant are the pharmaceutical and construction sectors. The cultivation of Cannabis sativa L. varieties containing more than 0.2% tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) has been legalized by the law 4523/2018 in Greece for the sole purpose of producing end-products of medicinal cannabis. The use of medicinal cannabis is important for dealing with chronic diseases. As far as cannabis cultivated for industrial use is concerned, there is a significant increase in the secondary services sector. The resulting fibers are used for the manufacture of ropes etc. Especially CBD is of great interest. Through surveys carried out by the Agronomy Laboratory of Agricultural University of Athens regarding the development of cannabis by applying geotextiles, radiation management, cannabidiol (CBD) content and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), statistical data have been compiled for cannabis cultivation both pharmaceutical and textile. On the basis of the results, cannabis can be grown in Greece due to the weather conditions and, above all, sunshine, which is the main factor for the development of the plant.

Authors: KAKI Asma Ait , DJEBALA Salem , LATIF Muhammad Bilal , MOULA Nassim
Published: May 2020

The present study was carried out to investigate the prevalence of subclinical mastitis (SCM) in milking cows and the effect of farming system on the prevalence of SCM”, as well as the identification of bacterial strains causing the mammary gland infection. A total of 100 dairy cows were randomly selected from 32 farms of Bejaia district (Algeria), precisely the Soummam region: from Tazmalt to El Kseur. The SCM was screened by California Mastitis Test (CMT). Milk samples were collected aseptically from (CMT) positive cows and dispatched to laboratory for further microbiological tests. Results showed that the prevalence of SCM was 26%. Moreover, no significant differences in SCM prevalence were observed between intensive and semi intensive systems (P>0.05). The Staphylococcus aureus was found to be the most frequent bacterium species associated with SCM in the cows studied.

Published: May 2020

Gastrointestinal parasites with direct and/or indirect life cycles, namely Eimeria spp., Ascaridia galli, Heterakis gallinarum and Capillaria spp., are responsible for the most frequent and heavy economic losses in aviculture. The current review aimed to collect information about gastrointestinal parasites affecting poultry, as well as, research studies regarding parasitic diseases in free-range chicken production. From the references used in this review, 20% highlight research studies correlating prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites in free-range chickens and factors such as the production system, age and animal density, hygienic conditions and weather.Coccidiosis is responsible for the major economic losses in poultry farms. Diseases have different clinical signs and result in variable impacts on animals. Control programs include mainly vaccination, anti-coccidia and anthelminthic drugs, as well as, house cleaning and disinfection. This review concluded that coccidia and helminths are a global threat to free-range poultry production. More research in this area is necessary in order to understand the major factors influencing the prevalence of parasitic diseases in this type of poultry production. Also the search for new control strategies must be a priority, mainly using natural antiparasitic compounds and biological control approaches.

Published: May 2020

The aim of this study was to make a finding about the structural, functional and performance aspects of 217 dairy farms in northern Algeria through a survey, then to establish a diagnosis and a typology of these farms.The results showed that farms had an average size of 42.7 ± 102 ha, of which 34.5% was fodder area (FA), and an average of 28 ± 34.5 livestock units (LU) per farm, of which 65% were dairy cows (DC) dominated mainly by the Holstein and Montbeliarde breeds (74.8% of the total herd). The average number of annual work unit (AWU) was 2.98 ± 1.92 AWU/farm of which 78 ± 35% was a family labour. The farms’ performances were generally low. Dairy production (DP) average was 14.3 ± 4.77 kg/cow/day/farm, while fertility represented by calving interval (CI) was 397 ± 20.2 days/cow/farm. The use of multidimensional statistical methods has identified five types of farms.This study revealed a poor exploitation of the dairy potential of cows raised in Algeria, with the dominance of archaic breeding practices that oppose the welfare of these cows. To optimize dairy farming, solutions have been proposed.
Flocking Together: Collective Animal Minds in Contemporary Fiction
Authors: Caracciolo Marco
Published: May 2020

The remarkable coordination displayed by animal groups—such as an ant colony or a flock of birds in flight—is not just a behavioral feat; it reflects a fullfledged form of collective cognition. Building on work in philosophy, cognitive approaches to literature, and animal studies, I explore how contemporary fiction captures animal collectivity. I focus on three novels that probe different aspects of animal assemblages: animals as a collective agent (in Richard Powers'sThe Echo Maker), animals that communicate a shared mind through dance- like movements (in Lydia Davis'sThe Cows), and animals that embrace a collective “we” to critique the individualism of contemporary society (in Peter Verhelst'sThe Man I Became). When individuality drops out of the picture of human‐animal encounters in fiction, empathy becomes abstract: a matter of quasi‐geometric patterns that are experienced by readers through an embodied mechanism of kinesthetic resonance.

Watching from Below: Racialized Surveillance and Vulnerable Sousveillance
Authors: Ross Kelly
Published: May 2020

By relying on Foucauldian panopticism as a universally explanatory theory, surveillance studies has collapsed two separate issues: the power relations between watcher and watched and the visibility or nonvisibility of the watcher. The presumption that the watcher's visibility or nonvisibility is irrelevant is especially dangerous for observers of color, who are already more vulnerable because of racial hypervisibility. This essay examines the simultaneous operation of surveillance (watching from above) and sousveillance (watching from below), both predicated on racial hypervisibility. To demonstrate the continuity of racial hypervisibility across a broad historical period, I compare the risks taken by sousveillants of color making smart‐phone recordings of police brutality in the twenty‐first century with the dangers faced by visible African American sousveillants in nineteenth‐century slave narratives by Charles Ball, Frederick Douglass, and Harriet Jacobs.

Prosody, Media, and the Poetry of Edgar Allan Poe
Authors: Miller Peter
Published: May 2020

Edgar Allan Poe's poetry and poetic theory maintain an awkward standing in anglophone literary criticism but offer a valuable resource to scholars of historical poetics and, more specifically, historical prosody. In poems such as “The Raven” and “The Bells” and essays such as “The Rationale of Verse,” Poe pre sents prosodic structure as a kind of palimpsest of jostling sound media (e.g., phonetic script, meter, scansion, musical form, nonhuman voices), which obey different prosodic logics when engaged by different readers, both within and across periods. In this way, Poe's poetics challenges both historicist and formalist approaches to prosody, delyricizing poetic voice by demonstrating its embeddedness in media while insisting on the multiplicity of prosodic options available when individual readers verbalize the same poetical text. Rehabilitating Poe's prosodic project helps us see poems as products of both media history and real- time performance. (PM)
Anne Sexton Listening to Anne Sexton
Authors: Clement Tanya E.
Published: May 2020

Anne Sexton Met Her Psychiatrist, Martin Orne, in 1956, After Her Second Suicide Attempt. They Started Recording Their twice- (sometimes thrice-)weekly therapy sessions in early 1961, continuing until 1964, and Orne advised Sexton to listen to these recordings and write down her responses while listening and later relistening to them. Several hundred recordings of these therapy sessions have survived and reside in the Sexton collection at the Arthur and Elizabeth Schlesinger Library on the History of Women in America at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, and Sexton's responses have been preserved in four handwritten and typed journals, dating from January 1961 to August 1964, held at the Harry Ransom Center at the University of Texas, Austin. Arguably, playing the sessions back to herself shaped Sexton's memories, her evolving understanding of her past, and her sense of identity. The extant ensemble of texts, comprising the audio recordings, typed and handwritten journal entries, and poetry, illustrate how playback influenced this evolution.

Published: May 2020

Desiccation cracks in clay play an important role in many geoenvironmental applications such as clay liners in engineered landfills, preferential flows and contaminant transport. In this study, a comprehensive series of experiments was conducted to investigate the desiccation cracks due to the combined effects of initial water content and layer thickness on bentonite clay. Slurries of bentonite were prepared with initial water contents ranging from 1200 to 2200%. The slurry was placed in a glass Petri dish and dried at a temperature of 30 ± 2°C. Results from the experiments were illustrated in a phase diagram, and it was found that the interplay between the initial water content and layer thickness has a significant effect on the formation and prevention of desiccation cracks. More specifically, a phase boundary distinguishing between cracked and non-cracked samples was obtained in the constructed phase diagram. A theoretical model based on the critical cracking thickness was developed and then was used to predict this observed phase boundary. Furthermore, a detailed morphology of crack patterns was investigated by employing image analysis techniques followed by statistical analyses. Findings from this study have potential use in clay liner design, where bentonite is used as the main material, as well as in other problems associated with drying soils.

Published: May 2020

Objetivo: Contrastar el Costo/Beneficio del cultivo ilegal versus el cultivo legal, producto de la erradicación voluntaria en el Municipio de Hacarí, Norte de Santander. Método: La investigación se cimento en el paradigma positivista, metodología cuantitativa y enfoque correlacional. La población objeto de estudio se circunscribe a los encargados de las juntas de acción comunal del municipio y los cultivadores quienes abordaron la sustitución voluntaria del cultivo de la coca. La técnica de recolección de información aplicada, fue la encuesta a través de la aplicación de un cuestionario. Resultados: Se encontró que no existe información sobre las hectáreas, las rotaciones de cultivo e inversiones en insumos, además se pudo evidenciar el número de hectáreas sembradas con coca crecieron y que los cultivadores quienes sustituyeron no han recibido ayuda por parte del gobierno, asimismo, se evidenció que están aún hay presiones indebidas, con el agravante de que la sustitución ha sido voluntaria y con costos elevados. Discusiones: Pese a que existen programas del estado, todavía hay poca credibilidad en la solución al problema, los costos de insumos son cada vez elevados y se siente el descuido social de la región y la presión de los fuerzas al margen de la ley.  Conclusiones: El cultivo por hectáreas de cultivos ilícitos genera más jornales que una de lícito, los cultivos ilícitos son más rentables en el tiempo. Las rastras del proceso investigativo asumido han arrojado respuestas esperanzadoras donde se demuestra técnicamente que existe un potencial agrícola aun no explotado en su totalidad, que es de uso legal y que resulta más atractivo que los cultivos de uso ilícito.
Fiona’s FVII footprint
Authors: Mulders Greta , Tuinhout Mirjam
Published: May 2020

Factor VII deficiency is a rare inheritable bleeding disorder that can be challenging to manage. Blood activity levels do not correlate with bleeding risk, and prophylaxis is a more difficult treatment option than for people with haemophilia due to the short half-life of factor VII. Acute bleeding manifestations and long-term complications are similar to those associated with haemophilia. This case study illustrates the psychological and physical impact of severe factor VII deficiency on a woman with impaired mobility due to haemarthropathy who must retain her independence to provide care for her elderly parents. She self-manages her joint pain and bleeding risk, but her life is limited by the need to avoid injury and her reluctance to engage fully with health services.

Küresel rekabet ortamında ayakta kalmaya ve yaşamını sürdürmeye çalışan kurumlar ya da bireyler yenilikçi hareket etmenin yanında çoğu zaman bu ortamın getirdiği çeşitli sorunlarla da karşı karşıya kalmaktadırlar. Genel olarak aynı alanda çalışan kişiler ya da kurumların en güçlü ve en başarılı olmak gibi aynı amaçlara ulaşmada karşılıklı yarış halinde olmaları rekabet olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Dolayısıyla haklı rekabette bilgi ve yeterlilik yarışı varken; haksız rekabette bilerek yaratılan ve meslek etiği ile bağdaşmayan durumlar söz konusu olabilmektedir. Bu kavramlar etiğin oldukça önemli bir yere sahip olduğu muhasebe mesleği için değerlendirildiğinde normal rekabet ortamlarında mesleğin kimliğini üst noktalara çıkarma yarışı olarak düşünüldüğünde mesleğe oldukça değer katan bir durum oluşmaktadır. Ancak muhasebe meslek mensupları arasında yaşanan haksız rekabet ise meslek etiğine aykırı davranışları, haksız kazançları ve üretmeden paylaşmayı kapsayarak; muhasebe meslek mensuplarına ve çalışanlarına hem maddi hem de manevi zarar vermektedir. Konunun bahsedilen önemi çerçevesinde yapılan bu çalışmada amaç; muhasebe meslek mensupları ve çalışanları açısından haksız rekabete sebep olabilecek faktörlerin değerlendirilmesini sağlamaktır. Bu bağlamda rekabet, haksız rekabet kavramları teorik açıdan etraflıca ele alınmış olup muhasebe meslek mensupları açısından irdelenmiştir.

Authors: Novikova Tatyana S. , Baranov Aleksandr O. , Korolkova Maria V.
Published: May 2020

The infrastructural component of Russia’s scientific and technological development requires a significant update of the methodology for evaluating the relevant investment projects. The article covers the issue of simultaneous assessment of financial and economic efficiency of research infrastructure projects and justification of the need for government participation for successful implementation of such projects. The suggested methods and models are based on the transition from financial to economic indicators of the project through the adjustment of cash flows, identification of public effects significant for such projects (social, environmental, indirect, price, tax), and allocation of synergistic effects in their composition. These methods and models were tested for the innovative project of the Center for Collective Use “Experimental Catalyst Production”, which was proposed by the Institute of Catalysis in 2018 within the framework of the Novosibirsk regional programme “Akademgorodok 2.0”. The results show that the stimulation of investment in research infrastructure is justified by a significant excess of the project economic efficiency compared to its financial efficiency and it significantly depends on the choice of an adequate mechanism for government support
Effect of the Carburizing Layer on the Morphology of Chromium Carbides
Authors: Boubaaya Rabah , Allaoui Omar , Benarioua Younes , Driss Zied
Published: May 2020

Low carbon steel substrates were face-hardened by cementing, after which thin layers of chromium were deposited electrolytically on these substrates. After deposition, the samples were exposed to isothermal annealing at a temperature of 950°C. The characterization of the thin layers was carried out by means of optical microscopy and interferometry using the Vickers microhardness test. The obtained results allowed establishing the phase shift kinetics (under the effect of the cementing layer) in thin layers of chromium, which are transformed into chromium carbide when passing through metastable transition phases. These transformations were due to diffusion of the carbon atoms coming from the layer of cementing, germination and growth in solid phase. This fact has been examined taking into account the annealing temperature, the lattice parameter evolution and the deposited chromium layer morphology. As to mechanical properties, it was established that the micro-hardness depends on the phase shift evolution

SMART CONTRACT AS A FORM OF CIVIL CONTRACT
Authors: Varavka V.
Published: May 2020

Development of information technologies, cryptocurrencies and technology of distributed networks has caused the appearance of smart con- tracts as new types of civil contract. They have been widely used in recent years in such areas as initial coins offering (ICO), financial sector, inter- national trade and public services. At the same time the legal status and legal regulation of smart contracts are uncertain. These uncertainties cause many legal risks of smart-contractsutilization. The purpose of this article is to find out the conception of smart contract as a form of civil contract, to research its legal status and legal regula- tion issues and to develop proposals for the improvement of legal regulation of smart contracts and cryptocurrencies in Ukraine. By its legal nature a smart contract is a digital form of a civil contract realized in programming code automatically executed in a distributed network. Like a civil contract, smart contract has such elements as parties, subject and essential terms of the contract. The legal force of a smart contract depends on whether it includes the fundamental features of a civil contact, such as evidence that parties have intention to create legal relations, understandabil- ity of contract conditions and possibility to perform the terms of the contract under duress. The main advantages of a smart contract are its ability to significantly accelerate and reduce costs of the transaction and guarantee the fulfillment of contract terms regardless of the contractual parties' and third parties' will. The main risks of a smart contract are uncertainty of legal status of a smart contract and cryptocurrencies as a means of payment, complexity of expressing the contact terms in a mathematical algorithm, risk of software bugs and hacking attack. To solve the problems of legal regulation of smart contracts in Ukraine it is necessary to change the legislation in order to settle the legal status of cryptocurrencies and recognize a smart contract as a form of a civil contract. It is necessary to identify parties of the smart contract, confirm their agreement on the terms of the smart contract by using digital electronic signature. A smart contract should be supplemented by text application containing the es- sential terms of the contract which will have legal force in trail. It is necessary to implement blockchain technology in the state registers and pro- vide legal ability to make adjustments in the registers automatically for the performance of smartcontracts.
Diferencias en la competencia motriz percibida de una población infantil según la región geográfica
Authors: Salazar Cruz Pamela , Jiménez Díaz Judith
Published: May 2020

Esta investigación tuvo como propósito comparar la competencia motriz percibida en una población infantil (M ± DE 7.96 ± 0.74 años de edad), de dos regiones geográficas diferentes de un mismo país (rural y urbano); además se examinó, las diferencias entre niños y niñas. En total 55 escolares, de los cuales 15 niños y 17 niñas pertenecían a la región geográfica rural y 15 niños y 8 niñas pertenecían a la urbana. Se evaluó la competencia motriz percibida utilizando Pictorial Scale for Perceived Movement Skill Competence for Young Children. Después de aplicar análisis de varianza de 2 vías para grupos independientes (zona x sexo), se encontró que hay diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre niños y niñas en manipulación percibida, independientemente la región geográfica, siendo los niños los que presentan mayor manipulación percibida. No se encontró interacción estadísticamente significativa en la locomoción percibida, la manipulación percibida, el desempeño motor grueso percibido y la competencia motriz percibida, según la región geográfica y sexo. Se concluye que sin importar la región geográfica los niños tienen mayor manipulación percibida que las niñas. La región en la que vivían las poblaciones infantiles medidas, no influye en la competencia motriz percibida. Se recomienda en futuras investigaciones descriptivas o experimentales, utilizar y analizar esta prueba de percepción, de manera completa, debido a que se está usando de manera global y se podrían profundizar aspectos relevantes sobre este tema.

Las clases de Educación Física se caracterizan por la continua exposición por parte del alumnado de una serie de circunstancias adversas y estresantes ante las cuales en mayor o menor medida deben de enfrentarse en algún momento. Por ello, el objetivo de este estudio fue validar y adaptar la Escala de Resiliencia en el contexto Deportivo de Trigueros, Álvarez, Aguilar-Parra y Rosado (2017) al contexto de la Educación Física. En el estudio participaron 515 estudiantes de secundaria con edades comprendidas entre los 13 y 19 años (M = 15.65; DT = 1.28) pertenecientes a varios centros educativos del sur-este de España. El análisis factorial exploratorio y confirmatorio reveló unos índices de ajuste adecuados para la nueva versión de la escala, mostrándose la estructura factorial invariante respecto al generó. Los dos factores que integran la escala, competencia personal y aceptación de uno mismo y de la vida, obtuvieron una alta consistencia interna y estabilidad temporal. La versión española de la Escala de Resiliencia en el contexto Educación Física se mostró como un instrumento con adecuadas propiedades psicométricas para medir la resiliencia en el contexto de la Educación Física en adolescentes.

Las nuevas generaciones viven expuestos diariamente a estímulos provenientes de dispositivos electrónicos y diversos instrumentos de ocio que llevan asociado su uso al mantenimiento de una conducta sedentaria. Hasta el momento no se han explorado las posibles relaciones existentes entre los diferentes componentes del estilo de vida en una muestra representativa de la población de menores españoles. Por ello, se diseñó la presente investigación con los objetivos de examinar el grado de exposición a pantallas de los niños españoles e identificar posibles relaciones en su estilo de vida entre dicho aspecto y otros hábitos como la práctica de ejercicio y las horas de descanso, así como, determinar si alguno de ellos influye en su salud mental. Los resultados obtenidos mostraron que la exposición a pantallas de los niños españoles es de 15 horas semanales, y que su estilo de vida, aunque mejorable, entra dentro de los estándares de salud en cuanto a horas de descanso y hábitos de actividad física. Las políticas preventivas de abuso de dispositivos electrónicos en menores en España deberían poner especial énfasis en el sector que peores resultados en las variables de salud mental obtuvieron en la presente investigación: niños menores de 7 años y con malos hábitos de descanso nocturno y/o más horas de exposición a pantallas.

Catheter ablation is presently the main method for interventional treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). Despite improvements of the method and accumulation of personnel’s experience, incidence of recurrent AF following catheter interventions remains high. This review addresses a possibility of using contrast-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance imaging to increase the effectiveness of interventional treatment of arrhythmia.

Published: May 2020

Objective To study the role of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) in determination of risk for adverse course of ischemic heart disease (IHD) in patients after myocardial revascularization.Materials and Methods This study included 217 subjects, 182 IHD patients and 35 evaluated individuals without IHD. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was performed for 104 patients and coronary bypass (CB) was performed for 78 patients. Also echocardiography (EchoCG) and cardiac computed tomography were performed.Results In IHD patients, EAT volume and thickness were greater than in evaluated subjects without IHD. The composite endpoint (CEP) was observed after PCI more frequently than after CB. In IHD patients with an EAT thickness of 8.5 to 10.2 mm measured with EchoCG in the atrioventricular groove, the risk of CEP was 4.3 times higher after myocardial revascularization than with thicker or thinner EAT regardless of the revascularization method.Conclusion An EAT thickness of 8.5 to 10.2 mm in the atrioventricular groove as measured with EchoCG was associated with a risk of adverse IHD course in patients who have underwent myocardial revascularization.

Este artigo busca apresentar e discutir a metodologia utilizada no Plano Estadual de Habitação de Interesse Social do Estado do Ceará, especificamente quanto à construção de tipologias dos municípios cearenses, segundo o Plano Nacional de Habitação. A tipificação dos municípios, além de buscar uma maior aproximação com a realidade local, construiu variáveis de priorização frente aos programas que seriam propostos, ou seja, com estratégias de ação centradas nas tipologias estabelecidas. A metodologia, desenvolvida a partir de dados primários e secundários, e considerando a variabilidade de tais informações, previu a criação de um banco de dados que permite uma atualização contínua e, por conseqüência, assegura uma flexibilização dos tipos de acordo com a situação do município, que poderá ser modificada ao longo do tempo, sugerindo também o enquadramento em novas estratégias. O texto divide-se em duas partes. A primeira introduz e contextualiza o PEHIS-CE na Política Nacional de Habitação. A segunda apresenta a metodologia construída assim como alguns dos resultados alcançados, trazendo como exemplo a Região Metropolitana de Fortaleza (RMF).

O objetivo do presente estudo é analisar o impacto da infraestrutura de transporte rodoviário sobre o crescimento econômico brasileiro no período de 2011 a 2015. Para tal, optou-se pelo modelo econométrico dinâmico para dados em painel, estimado pelo método de Momentos Generalizados Sistêmico (GMM-Sys). Para caracterizar a infraestrutura de transporte rodoviário do país, foram criadas variáveis que mensuram a quantidade e principalmente a qualidade da pavimentação das rodovias brasileiras, com base nas informações da Confederação Nacional de Transporte - CNT. Os resultados demonstram que a qualidade da malha rodoviária impacta positivamente no crescimento econômico brasileiro, reforçando a hipótese de que maiores investimentos em infraestrutura de transporte geram retornos positivos para a economia.
