Mamíferos de la Reserva Natural del Bosque Mbaracayú, Departamento Canindeyú Representadas en Colecciones Científicas
Authors: Owen Robert D. , Smith Paul
Published: July 2019

La Reserva Natural del Bosque Mbaracayú (RNBM) es un área protegida de 64.405 ha en Canindeyú, nordeste de Paraguay. La mayor parte de su cobertura es de Bosque Atlántico del Alto Paraná, pero incorpora también un área significante de Cerrado. Además de ocasionales investigaciones biológicas y la caza por métodos tradicionales por parte de los indígenas Aché, el bosque ha estado prácticamente intocado durante los últimos 35-40 años y, como resultado, alberga una comunidad faunística casi completa y representativa de esta región. Este artículo reporta sobre las especies de mamíferos residentes en la Reserva, que han sido verificadas por uno o más especímenes. De las más de 40 colecciones de mamíferos revisadas en Europa, América del Norte y del Sur, se conocen diez que contienen un total de 4.929 especímenes provenientes de la RNBM. Los especímenes representan una fauna diversa de mamíferos, abarcando 20 familias y 71 especies. Sumado con otros registros verificables, al menos 84 especies de mamíferos habitan en la Reserva. Reportes recientemente verificados de mamíferos adicionales en la Reserva sugieren que la investigación continuada debe ser apoyada.
Percepción de los servicios ecosistémicos de la Reserva Mbaracayú por parte de alumnas del Centro Educativo Mbaracayú, Departamento de Canindeyú, Paraguay
Authors: Salas-Dueñas Danilo
Published: July 2019

La percepción está conformada por dos elementos. Las sensaciones o estímulo físico, que es dado por el medio en forma de sonidos, imágenes, aromas entre otras y los elementos internos como necesidades, experiencias y motivaciones, que reaccionan de forma distinta ante cada estímulo externo.[1] Comprender cómo los actores perciben y se relacionan con los ecosistemas y cómo valoran los servicios que obtienen de los mismos, es fundamental para formular estrategias de manejo y conservación de los ecosistemas como forma de mejora de la calidad de vida de las personas, incluyendo en este caso el impacto que la educación ha tenido en la forma como un grupo de estudiantes percibe los beneficios que les genera el entorno. La presente investigación fue realizada. entre los meses de Julio y Noviembre del año 2017, con la participación de la totalidad de estudiantes del Centro Educativo Mbaracayú (24° 8'2.19"S, 55°31'41.13"O), Teniendo como objetivo el determinar si las alumnas al cabo de los tres años de educación habían adquirido los elementos necesarios para poder reconocer y determinar la importancia que los Servicios Ecosistémicos tienen para la calidad de vida (bienestar) de las mismas y sus comunidades; para determinar lo anterior se realizó una encuesta a las 104 alumnas en la cual se utilizaron cuatro categorías de Servicios, siguiendo la estructura propuesta en la evaluación de los ecosistemas del milenio y aplicada en varias investigaciones realizadas en el Paraguay [2,3]. Como resultados sobresale el que efectivamente las alumnas mejoran su conocimiento y percepción al respecto a medida que pasan de grado, indicando igualmente que no todas las categorías de servicios son percibidos de igual forma.

Authors: Borges Adolfo , Rojas de Arias Antonieta
Published: July 2019

El escorpionismo, como se conoce al accidente producido por escorpiones tóxicos en humanos, es un problema de salud pública en varias regiones del mundo, incluyendo centros urbanos de la América Tropical. La elevada toxicidad de algunas de las especies del género Tityus ha demandado la preparación de antivenenos específicos en América Latina, única estrategia terapéutica eficaz para el tratamiento de estos accidentes. En Paraguay habitan tres especies del género (T. trivittatus, T. confluens y T. bahiensis) de reconocida peligrosidad en Argentina y Brasil, pero cuya real importancia sanitaria en el país es desconocida. Ante el registro de accidentes severos y el posible escenario de un incremento epidemiológico del escorpionismo en Paraguay producto del calentamiento global, esta revisión presenta las especies conocidas del país, su distribución y datos sobre su toxicidad, a fin de sentar las bases para un necesario estudio que aclare la real magnitud del problema en el país e identifique los antivenenos antiescorpiónicos efectivos en Paraguay.

Published: July 2019

Resulta importante determinar las condiciones de luminosidad más favorables para el cultivo de Yerba Mate. Para el efecto se realizaron dos experimentos independientes, ambas siguieron un diseño cuasi experimental con enfoque cuantitativo. La población estudiada fueron las plantas de yerba mate implantadas bajo monte en dos condiciones de luminosidad, durante cuatro meses, de julio a noviembre de 2017. Para el primer caso el objetivo fue, evaluar el crecimiento de las plantas de yerba mate bajo monte en dos condiciones de luminosidad en la Reserva. Cada condición de luz estuvo conformada por 36 plantas, distribuidas en seis parcelas. Las variables evaluadas fueron luminosidad, altura, diámetro de cuello, área foliar y cantidad de hojas, se registró la sobrevivencia de plantas. La luminosidad más alta se registró en la condición de claro, en el mes de julio con un promedio de (1797,5 ± 211,9 lx). El crecimiento fue mayor en la condición de claro, donde se obtuvieron los siguientes promedios: altura (26,89 ± 5,2 cm), diámetro de cuello (4,10 ± 0,4 mm), área foliar (253,31 ± 139,7 cm2) y cantidad de hojas (15 ± 6 hojas). Para el incremento en altura, diámetro de cuello, área foliar y cantidad de hojas, existieron diferencias significativas entre las dos condiciones de luminosidad. El incremento fue mayor en la condición de claro, donde se obtuvieron los siguientes promedios: (10,81 ± 5,2 cm), (1,55 ± 0,5 mm), (81,35 ± 144,3 cm2) y (4 ± 6 hojas) respectivamente. La sobrevivencia de plantas fue ligeramente superior en la condición de dosel cerrado con 75% de sobrevivencia. Para el segundo caso, el objetivo fue evaluar la influencia de la luminosidad sobre la morfología y fenología foliar de la yerba mate, para tal efecto fueron instalados 80 plantas (bajo monte y pleno sol), 40 por condición. Se midieron variables como: luminosidad, cantidad total, cantidad brotes y persistencia de hojas, morfología media (largo y ancho), área foliar y al final de la investigación se registró la sobrevivencia. La plantación a pleno sol fue afectada a inicios de la investigación por la helada. La luminosidad presentó variaciones en ambas condiciones, en la plantación a pleno sol se produjo una disminución de luminosidad a partir del mes de setiembre mientras que, en las de bajo monte se produjo un aumento de luminosidad por la caída de un árbol. La cantidad de brotes fue mayor a pleno sol, con un total de 7 ± 5,9 hojas/planta, sin embargo, no hubo diferencias significativas con las de bajo monte. La misma condición registró la mayor caída de hojas entre agosto y setiembre, mientras que las de bajo monte presentaron mayor persistencia de hojas. Las hojas de la yerba mate bajo monte eran más anchas (3,7 ± 0,8 cm) por lo que el área foliar fue mayor con un total de 245,5 ± 139,7 cm2, hubo diferencias significativas por condición para estas variables. La sobrevivencia de plantas fue del 90% para ambas condiciones.

Authors: Haddad Sabrine , Zemni Ines , Merchaoui Irtyah , Bettaib Ilhem , Adouni Olfa , Chargui Riadh , Ben Rahal Khaled
Published: July 2019

Background: Molecular classification of breast tumors has identified the basal-like subtype, with high heterogeneity and very poor prognosis. These tumors are mainly triple negative, characterized by the expression of basal markers CK5/6 and EGFR. In this study, we sought to investigate the features, outcome, and therapeutic modalities of basal-like breast cancers (BLBC).Methods: We retrospectively identified 90 BLBC patients diagnosed at the Department of Surgical Oncology of Salah Azaiez Institute between January 2009 and December 2013. Results: The mean age of our patients was 50 years, and 15.5% had a family history of breast cancer. The mean tumor size was 43.8 mm. Histological examination revealed invasive ductal carcinoma in 88.9% of the cases, metaplastic carcinoma in 5.6%, and medullary carcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma in 2.2%. BLBC was most often associated with a high tumor grade (55.3% had a grade 3 tumor) and a high Ki-67 proliferative index. Vascular invasion was found in 31.1% of the cases. Regarding lymph node involvement, 42.9% had positive lymph nodes and 7.9% featured distant metastases. Surgical treatment was provided for 85 patients. It consisted of conservative surgery in 40 cases and radical surgery in 45 cases. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was administrated to 23 patients, with a 13% complete pathologic response. The rates of overall survival and disease-free survival at 3 years for localized BLBC were 74.4% and 75.9%, respectively. Conclusion: BLBCs are aggressive tumors associated with poor prognosis. Thus, to identify novel prognostic factors and therapeutic targets, prospective studies should investigate the epidemiological and evolutive profile of these tumors.

Published: July 2019

Food security and access to electricity are considered core elements forthedevelopment of modern societies. In some cases, energy supplies are prioritized and therefore may compete with food resources. Since 2009, the sudden increase of photovoltaic system investments in Greece and particularly in Crete, as an effort to comply with the European directives on sustainable energy sources, led tothe replacement of many fieldsof traditional agricultural cultivations (such as olive and orange trees) with photovoltaic parks.The aim of this paper is to estimate the economic benefit of the investment of photovoltaic parks on farmlands compared to the cultivation of olive and citrus crops.To this end, two different scenarios were investigated. In the first scenario, the replacement of a 1000 m2 olive grove area,located in highly productive land, witha small photovoltaic park of 25 kW was investigated. The second scenarioconsidersa much larger photovoltaic park of 100 kW which replaces an orange grove of 3500 m2 at highly productive land. It was found that in both cases,the profitability of the investment, for a time span of 20 yrs, was highly dependent on the time when the power purchase agreement was signed. As a general rule, investments made before 2013 can be characterized as profitable. After 2013, the situation became more complex and the financial success of the investments is not guaranteed.

The establishment of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) has sparked many debates and controversies in the last five years since it was announced back in 2013. Amongst studies trying to explain the reason for the establishment of the AIIB, most of them are based on the analysis of Sino-U.S. relations especially on how they overlooked China as a replacement for global hegemon to the U.S.However, considering China’s foreign policy in the recent decade, the establishment of the AIIB is considered as a typical step to becoming a leader in regionalism of East Asia. This writing concludes that China is still only aiming to become regional leader in the scale of East Asia.

Service on garbage pick-up is an obligatory service which, should be provided by the goverment. Due to human’s active mobility, which doing activities that may result in waste, that may cause bad impact on the environment and also human themselves. However, the service cost for garbage pick up is not that affaordable, in which government is required to do efficiency, especially to efficient in terms of time. In this study, the place that was used as sample is Padang City. In Padang City, the time that needed to pick-up the garbage from the time the trucks start the trip from the shelter, up to each pick-up point and drop it to the landfill site takes around 6.97 hours. This data is a secondary data that  obtained by previous researchers. In this study, the time simulationhas been elaborated  by replacing the conventional garbage bin to smart dust bin. Smart dustbin is equipped with sensor to count how much garbage inside it and other types of sensor are also equiped to accommodate its work. In addition, Smart Dustbin also equiped with GSM module to send information for indicating that the garbage bin has full. A simulation result showed that using smart dustbin can reducing the pick up time according to the pick-up points  that informed by the GSM module.

Nowadays, internet connectivity is one of the staple things in human lifestyle, especially for those who live in cities. There are a lot of ways to connect to the internet, and one of them is using Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) connection. Wi-Fi connection is seen as the most reliable connection, until Li-Fi (Light Fidelity) technology is coined in 2011. Li-Fi uses visible light as data transfer medium instead of radio frequency (RF) signal used by Wi-Fi. Theoretically, Li-Fi is able to reach hundred times of Wi-Fi connection speed due to their use of light as data transfer medium. Li-Fi is also expected as a solution to environmental problems caused by Wi-Fi. The RF signal used by Wi-Fi can cause some environmental problems such as growth inhibition and diseases to organisms including humans. The visible light used by Li-Fi is expected to cause minimal effects to the environment, as Li-Fi uses common LED light bulbs which are used as home lighting apparatus.  Li-Fi is commonly seen as a ‘greener’ technology compared to Wi-Fi. In this review, the performance and environmental impacts of both Wi-Fi and Li-Fi are analysed to determine whether Li-Fi is really capable to be a ‘greener’ replacement to Wi-Fi technology

The quick advancement of gadgets innovation industry offers an extensive variety of item decisions. This circumstance supported the improvement of electronic industry in Indonesia to be quick. The speeding up development is combined with items that are quickly out of date on the grounds that more current age items have showed up once more. So that, the electronic things which have been unused in the end move toward becoming refuse that is frequently alluded to as Electronic Waste (e-squander) and encountered an exceptionally fast increment. From the aftereffects of research in creating nations including Indonesia, E-Waste isn't found in squander Final Disposal (TPA). This is because of the high number of reusing and reuse (reusing) of utilized electronic products in the casual division. Reusing of the casual division is firmly identified with natural and wellbeing impacts. It isn't understood that numerous segments of electronic products contain hazardous toxic substances (B3). With a specific end goal to handling these issues, creating nations including Indonesia require modern cycle innovation, as well as significant administration measures and the presence of an approach to avert ecological effects. Nevertheless, contrasted and specialized viewpoints, e-squander administration strategy turns out to be more essential and earnest. In this paper, we endeavor to present the conditions and administration approaches that exist in Indonesia today and elective e-waste reusing innovations that identify with e-squander administration arrangements that are coordinated in the formal and casual segments.

Published: July 2019

The financial reporting is considered to be a ‘universal’ language of business, the efforts to harmonize and standardize it are dictated by conviction, that the usefulness of financial and non-financial information delivered this way can be improved and might facilitate comparisons of companies operating around the world, etc. However, the real perception of information generated by financial statements is made by real people, not by the economic model of homo oeconomicus, that is why psychological and cultural factors are extremely important in the analysis of this process. There is a lack of comprehensive studies on this subject. Most of publications are contributory. The research is based on the critical review of the subject literature and using mostly the method of induction, the impact of selected cultural conditions on the formulation of expectations on the content of the financial statements is examined and proved. The example of Muslim countries is used as the beginning of series of articles in the taken subject. Keywords: accounting harmonization, cultural factors, decision-making, financial reporting, Islam.
