Distribution of Respiratory Viral Agents in Patients Being Followed-Up in Our Pediatric Emergency Department
Authors: TÜRE Esra , YAZAR Abdullah
Published: January 2019

We aimed to determine the  distribution of frequency of respiratory
viruses detected in nasopharyngeal swab samples of patients under 5 years of
age, who were hospitalized in the inpatient unit of pediatric emergency
department during last year, by seasons, age and clinical findings.
Hospitalization files of the patients were examined retrospectively.  Patients’ age, gender, admission complaint,
physical examination findings, season they admitted, need for non-invasive
mechanical ventilation, duration of hospital stay and result of nasopharyngeal
swab viral polymerase chain reaction (PCR) were recorded. When results of the
nasopharyngeal swab viral PCR of the patients were examined, it was determined
that no virus was isolated in 43 (26.5%) patients and in 119 (73.5%), however,
at least one virus was isolated. Of these 119 patients; only one virus was
detected in 82 (68.9%) and two or more viruses in 37 (31.1%). It was observed
that 87 (53.7%) did not receive any antibiotics and 75 (46.3%) patients were
treated with one or more antibiotics. Early detection of viral pathogens is
thought to prevent unnecessary antibiotic use, control of antibiotic
resistance, shorten hospital stay and decrease treatment costs.

Published: January 2019

miRNAs are small, non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally. We used small RNA sequencing to identify tissue-specific miRNAs in the adult brain, thorax, gut, and fat body ofDrosophila melanogaster. One of the most brain-specific miRNAs that we identified was miR-210, an evolutionarily highly conserved miRNA implicated in the regulation of hypoxia in mammals. InDrosophila, we show that miR-210 is specifically expressed in sensory organs, including photoreceptors. miR-210 knockout mutants are not sensitive toward hypoxia but show progressive degradation of photoreceptor cells, accompanied by decreased photoreceptor potential, demonstrating an important function of miR-210 in photoreceptor maintenance and survival.

Authors: Lozynska Svitlana , Sasyk Oksana
Published: January 2019

This article considers the educational value of toys. Folk toys are, on the one hand, a model, an outline of life, on the other – a source of joy, cheerfulness, well-being. The role of folk toys in the moral and aesthetic education was justified and analyzed. Folk toy is one of the most effective means of aesthetic, physical and mental development of children. The selection of folk toys, which should be based on age peculiarities of the child was discovered. The main functions of folk toys were characterized.

Folk toy is a heritage like a mother tongue, tales, songs. Folk toys carry children’s love, highlighted in child’s play. Folk toy carries the artistic culture of folk art, develops unique features of its people aesthetics.

The use of folk toys in kindergarten, in the family, diversifies the gaming activities of children, help them to enrich, expand the world cognition and its people, develop its classical skills for national, economic and social culture.

Formation of knowledge about the folk toy is based on the perception of children’s cognitive, aesthetic, moral, emotional content, an adequate understanding of its cultural and historical significance.

National toy stands in the pedagogical process as a type of artistic creation that combines the material and spiritual achievements. Toys are a special type of artistic creation that integrates various types of folk art, combining the material and spiritual achievements of the Ukrainian culture, contributes to the formation of creatively active person, successor of folk traditions.

The metaphorical and imagery aspect of toy makes it a panacea for social adaptation to a particular stage of human development, for conveying, assimilation and revival of material and spiritual folk culture, while other means are inaccessible.

Authors: Оshurkevych Nataliia
Published: January 2019

The article is devoted to the study of the problem of professional self-determination of personality and its relevance in contemporary socio-economic conditions.

An analysis of the work of domestic and foreign scholars on the problem of professional self-determination of personality, made it possible to find out that there is no single theory in the understanding of the process of professional self-determination of personality.

The article reveals the essence of the concepts of «personality», «profession», «professional self-determination», «professional self-determination of personality», «self-determination». The genesis is analyzed and approaches to the definition of the essence of the concept of «professional self-determination of personality» are considered. The emphasis is placed on the professional self-determination of a personality as a multicomponent phenomenon that is interconnected with professional development and the formation of an individual.

The author’s definition of the concept of «professional self-determination of personality» is proposed as a prolonged, dynamic and phased process of self-knowledge and professional choice, influenced by external and internal factors of the subject.

It has been established that in the writings of leading scholars there is an increased interest in the problem of professional self-determination of personality. The great experience of the various concepts and theoretical approaches developed to understanding the problem of professional self-determination of personality points to the complexity and multicomponent nature of the phenomenon of «professional self-determination of personality», as well as its close connection with the person’s self-determination of the person, his self-realization, self-actualization and self-knowledge in professional activity.
Sех education of pupils as a composition of the activities of the social pedagogue in school
Authors: Kornjat Vira
Published: January 2019

The article deals with the problem of sexual education in modern educational institutions. It is emphasized on the lack of effective work carried out by pedagogical staff in the direction of sexual education, inadequate theoretical and methodological training of pedagogical workers (social teachers, teachers), low level of pedagogical culture of parents. It has been shown that among scholars there is no single definition in the interpretations of «sexual», «sexual», «gender» education. The sexual education of the author is understood as a process of systematic, deliberately planned and implemented education, which involves a definite end result of action – the formation of sexual consciousness and behaviour. Proceeding from this, the pivotal aspect of such upbringing is the formation of the sexual culture of the individual, its preparation for the conscious realization of gender roles − sexually determined social standards of conduct. Sexual and sexual behaviour of a mature person is a culture and sexual life of a person, and interpersonal communication, and appearance, and the attitude towards your health. Variety of interpretation of the concept of «sexual education» indicates its complex structure and requires adults to pay special attention to the unity of the family and educational institutions in this process. The results of the survey of schoolchildren, which confirmed the assumption that in the secondary schools the low level of attention of pedagogical workers to the issue of sexual education and showed the need and importance of conducting work on sexual education with schoolchildren, it is the social pedagogue, to whom they relate to trust and understanding, and the question of the correct organization in the school environment of sexual education of the person from the side of pedagogical workers, especially social educators, practical psychologists, class leaders is archivious. The prospects of further researches, in particular, development of the integral system of sexual education of pupils in the conditions of a comprehensive institution and experimental verification of its effectiveness, studying the peculiarities of the work of the social pedagogue in the sexual education of children with disabilities are presented.

Modeling American Graduate Students’ Perceptions Predicting Dropout Intentions
Authors: L. Hardre Patricia , Liao Lihui , Dorri Yaser , Beeson Stoesz Malea
Published: January 2019

Aim/Purpose: Dropout is a critical problem in graduate college programs across disciplines and institutions. Yet relatively little research has assessed graduate students’ motivations for dropping out across disciplines, or systematically modeled perceptions that contribute to dropout intentions.

Background: Perceptions drive critical decisions that people make about their lives, and a core set of these perceptions consistently predict adults’ educational intentions and choices. This study investigates how a set of critical perceptions predict the strength of graduate students’ dropout intentions.

Methodology: This study models their differential contributions using structural equation modeling, in AMOS®. Participants were 886 masters and doctoral students across programs and colleges in a Southwestern university in the United States.

Findings: The best-fitting model demonstrated most significant influences on graduate students’ dropout intentions were predicted by: satisfaction with the overall graduate experience (not just program-of-study), self-efficacy for professional success (not just coursework), and the Perceived Graduate Experience Gap (expectations vs. experience in graduate school). Model fit was excellent for the whole group, and demonstrated some nuanced differences for subgroups, notably by degree type and point-in-program.

Recommendations for Practitioners: These findings illuminate considerations useful to graduate faculty and program administrators concerned about improving retention and completion. They can inform policies and practice for preventing and reducing graduate student dropout.
Active Area Coverage from Equilibrium
Authors: Abraham Ian , Prabhakar Ahalya , Murphey Todd
Published: January 2019

This paper develops a method for robots to integrate stability into actively seeking out informative measurements through coverage. We derive a controller using hybrid systems theory that allows us to consider safe equilibrium policies during active data collection. We show that our method is able to maintain Lyapunov attractiveness while still actively seeking out data. Using incremental sparse Gaussian processes, we define distributions which allow a robot to actively seek out informative measurements. We illustrate our methods for shape estimation using a cart double pendulum, dynamic model learning of a hovering quadrotor, and generating galloping gaits starting from stationary equilibrium by learning a dynamics model for the half-cheetah system from the Roboschool environment.
Boron Neutron Capture Therapy for Cancer: Future Prospects in Indonesia
Authors: Poedjomartono Bagaswoto , Afkari Hanif , Meiyanto Edy , Bangun Alan , Sardjono Yohanes
Published: January 2019

Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a form of cancer therapy based on the interaction of low-energy thermal neutrons and boron-10 (10-B) to produce alpha radiation from He-4 and Li-7 with a high linear energy transfer. A beam of neutrons irradiates a boron drug injected into the tumor, resulting in the boron-injected cancer cells receiving a lethal dose of radiation with the surrounding, healthy cells being minimally affected. Two boron drugs have been used clinically in BNCT, boron sodium captate (BSH) and borophenylalanine (BPA), while a third, pentagamaboronon-0 (PGB-0), is currently under development in the Faculty of Pharmacy of Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indonesia. In Indonesia, there has been a growing interest in the study and use of BNCT to treat cancer, as this method is expected to be safer and more effective than traditional cancer treatment methods.

Authors: Syamputra Dhani Nur Indra , Sardjono Yohannes , Mahmudah Rida Siti Nur’aini
Published: January 2019

The objectives of this research were to ?nd (1) the optimum boron dose for treating rhab- domyosarcoma in the head and neck regions and (2) the effective irradiation time to treat rhab- domyosarcoma in the head and neck regions. This research used the particle and heavy ions transport code system (PHITS) to simulate the neutron source and BNCT doses. The neutron source used was Kartini Reactor. The simulation was carried out by creating the geometry of cancer tissue in the head and neck regions. Boron concentration variance was 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50 µg/g tissue. The output of PHITS was a neutron ?ux and neutron dose. The neutron ?ux value was used to acquire the alpha dose, proton dose, and gamma dose inside the tissue. The results showed that (1) the optimum boron dose for treating rhabdomyosarcoma in the head and neck regions was 50 µg/g tissue and (2) the effective irradiation time was 7 hours and 4 minutes, which was acquired with a boron concentration of 50 µg/g tissue. The higher the boron concentration level, the higher the dose rate, the quicker the irradiation time, and the lower the radiation dose received by healthy tissues.

ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of lime juice in drinking water as antibiotic growth promoter substitute on broiler performance and intestine microbial population. This study used 90 broiler chickens that were reared up to 28 days. This experiment was designed as a completely randomized design with 3 treatments and 3 replications; P0= Diet + drinking water without lime juice (control treatment), P1= Diet + drinking water with lemon juice (pH=5), P2= Diet + drinking water with lime juice (pH =3). The results of this study showed that all treatments did not affect weight gain, feed consumption, feed conversion, E. coli population. The treatment of drinking water with lime juice at pH =3 significantly increased (P<0.05) lactic acid population. Utilization of lime juice in drinking water at pH 5 increase 3,3% of feed efficiency and reduce the mortality rate.

İSLAMİYET’TE TASVİR YASAĞI VE TÜRK MİMARİ SÜSLEME SANATINDA İNSAN FİGÜRÜNÜN KULLANIMI
Authors: ALSAN Şenay Sayın
Published: January 2019

İnsan figürünün bir
süsleme unsuru olarak kullanımı, geometrik, bitkisel ve hayvan motifine göre
daha seyrek ve kısıtlıdır. Başlıca sebebi ise, Kuran-ı Kerim’de tasvir yasağı
olduğu, insan figürünün resim, heykel ya da mimaride bezeme unsuru olarak kullanılmasına
izin vermediği konusunda yanlış inanıştır. İslamiyet’te gerek ayetlerde gerekse
hadislerde insan figür yasağını belirten herhangi bir ibare yoktur. Erken İslam
Sanatında sivil mimaride ve plastik sanatlarda insan figürünün kullanıldığı pek
çok örnek görüyoruz.  İslamiyet’te tasvir
yasağı olmadığı halde, daha sonra böyle bir kavram ortaya çıkmıştır. İslamiyet
öncesi ve İslamiyet sonrası Türk Sanatında insan tasviri, taş, ahşap, maden vb.
malzemeler kullanılarak, imaret, türbe, medrese, tekke, bimarhane, gibi yapılar
üzerine bezeme olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır.  Her ne kadar İslamiyet öncesi inanç
sistemlerinin izlerini taşısalar bile, İslamiyet’i kabul ettikten sonra figürlü
tasvirlerin uygulandığı örnekler gitgide azalarak geometrik ve bitkisel
motifler ağırlık kazanmıştır. Bu makalede tasvir yasağı konusu incelenerek,
Anadolu’da geometrik ve bitkisel süslemeye nazaran daha nadir olarak kullanılan
insan figürünün uygulandığı örnekler üzerinde durulmuştur. Yazılı kaynaklardan
yola çıkılarak incelenen figürlü tasvirlerin bezeme unsuru ve ikonografik
çözümlenmesi incelenmiştir.
Atmospheric Meteorological Parameters and Ionospheric F2 Layer Critical Frequency (foF2) Observation for 6th December, 2016 Indonesia Earthquake (M 6.5): A Case Study
Authors: Paul Suman
Published: January 2019

On 6th December, 2016, an earthquake with M 6.5 occurred at the tectonic plate boundary, southwest of Sumatra, Indonesia (Latitude: 0.5897° S, Longitude: 101.3431° E). In this case, ionosphereic critical frequency of F2 layer (foF2) variations and meteorological parameters, viz., air temperature, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure and wind speed variations were investigated so as to detect any anomalies. Data are obtained from different websites freely available for researchers. In the absence of real ionosonde foF2 data, IRI 2016 model data were used. For each parameter, anomaly window were defined when values fell beyond ± 6 °C, < 70 %, ± 4 mb and ± 3.5 km h-1 from the event day value and one third of total foF2 values broke the limits of the upper and lower bounds. Certain random anomalies in temperature, relative humidity, pressure, wind speed and foF2 frequencies were observed different days prior to occurrence of the quake but each parameter showed anomalies 12 days before the occurrence. Also, geomagnetic tranquility was justified through Kp and Dst indices. This study reveals that continuous monitoring of atmospheric meteorological parameters and regular ionospheric foF2 observations might help us to predict an earthquake about a week prior to the occurrence.
Environmental Energetics aspects of anomalous Cyclogenesis over Indian Ocean during 2013
Authors: Dutta Somenath , G. Narkhedkar S. , Devi Sunitha , TM Sudheesh
Published: January 2019

An attempt has been made to understand the dynamics behind anomalous cyclogenesis over Indian Ocean during 2013 cyclone seasons, from an atmospheric energetics point of view. Salient features of the results of this study are: Maximum intensification of all the intense cyclonic vortices was associated with an enhancement in both conversion from eddy available potential energy to eddy kinetic energy (AE to KE ) and zonal kinetic energy to eddy kinetic energy (KZ to KE). During intensification of the storms both AE and AZ have shown to be dissipated, suggesting the intensification of storms at the cost of AE and AZ .  For all of these systems baroclinic eddy kinetic energy conversions [conversion from AE to KE ] dominates over barotropic eddy kinetic energy conversions [conversion from KZ to KE]. Anomalous cyclogenesis in 2013, at least partly may be attributed to a positive anomaly in Moist Static Energy (MSE) of the environment along with positive anomaly in baroclinic and barotropic eddy kinetic energy conversion during cyclone seasons over the region under study. Release of convective instability in the atmosphere may also be attributed, at least partly, for anomalous cyclogenesis in 2013.

Published: January 2019

This paper deals with the importance of environment consideration in developed countries while collecting the requirement from customer to make robot that would address the question “Why robots should be made more precisely according to the environment needs? “In developed countries, robots are used in manufacturing work as well as in performing the hazardous tasks such as bomb-disposal. So, there is a need to pay attention towards making the robots that can fit perfectly to some extent in environment to be utilized more efficiently. A lot of money, effort and time is spent on making the robots .But what if such a worth costing robot fails to fit in the operational environment? The best way to solve this problem is proposed in this paper which is to make the environment as a part of Requirement gathering process carrying high importance in robot making process to make the robots more Operational and suitable for the working environment .Like the other main attributes in requirement gathering process such as user requirements, system requirements and external requirements, there should be an attribute “Environmental requirements” which will automatically put emphasis on the considering also the environment as a main subject to  pay heed.
Finite element analysis of stuffing-box packing subjected to thermo-mechanical loads
Authors: BAHOUM Kaoutar
Published: January 2019

The principal rule for the stuffing-box packings is to ensure the stem valve sealing. The behavior of these systems is affected by the operating conditions, which are the gland axial stress, the temperature, and the fluid pressure, as well as the mechanical and geometrical properties of the various components. In this paper, a numerical study using finite element method is presented to evaluate the radial contact stresses, the axial stresses, and the lateral pressure coefficients in a stuffing box system under the tightening gland load and the temperature field.

Published: January 2019

The current situation of Cairo metro stations, especially terminal stations and its surrounding areas, has bad financial revenue and bad effect on environment. It is a major factor in increasing of noise, traffic jam and air pollution, in addition to, spreading of street vendors, collecting of random parking around these terminal stations. Thus, this paper proposed a methodology helping to apply multilateral investments in metro terminal stations for getting extra profits and decreasing the bad environmental effect of terminal stations and its surrounding areas. Hence, Helwan-Metro station on line 1 has been considered as a case study. Number of passengers at peak time, their ages, and their destinations, have been considered by making a field survey and a questionnaire. After collecting data and finalizing the surveying questionnaire, primary studies were done to modify and introduce a new proposal for Helwan-Metro station. The initial cost of the proposed project is predicted by using Artificial Neural Network technique using Just NN software. The investment feasibility achieved by consideration of Life Cycle Cost analysis and calculation of Net Present Value (NPV) of the proposed project.
Prediction of Formation Pressure Gradients of NC98 Field-Sirte Basin-Libya
Authors: Tunnish Ahmed , Nasr Mohammed , Salem Mahmoud
Published: January 2019

The prediction of formation pore pressure and fracture pressure gradients is a significant step towards the drilling plan. In this study, the formation pressures of twelve wells from NC98 field-Sirte Basin (Waha Oil Company) were calculated by employing empirical methods, Eaton's equations, that depend on the real drilling and well-logging data. Regarding the results, the normal pore pressure in the NC98 field in Sirte basin is 9.89 kPa/m (0.437 Psi/ft), and it is extending from the top of the wells in the investigated area to 2134 m (7,000 ft). A subnormal to normal pore pressure zone is noticed in the interval of 2134 m to 2743 m (7,000 ft. - 9,000 ft). Then, slightly subnormal to somewhat abnormal (overpressure) region is seen from 2743 – 3414 (9,000 ft. - 11,200 ft). Beyond to that depth and down to the top of the reservoir, the overpressure zone was clearly observed. Based on the results, the casing seating depth and the equivalent mud weight were simply determined for the area of study.
