Ideational Intersemiotic Relation in Tempo’s Magazine Cover Representing Setya Novanto
Authors: Nurjannah Andriana Vita
Published: November 2018

Magazine cover is an image that accommodates the readers with a critical value information of a news story. The essence of a particular story is able to be represented in a single page of magazine cover. It indeed covers not only the surface or real meanings, but deeper meaning soon to be analysed by the readers. The recent politician case relating Setya Novanto is one of the trending topic in news event as it impacts in the massive reaction from the Indonesian citizens, like making particular memes and even an android game. In this case, the illustrators of one of news magazine, Tempo, have to make a cover representing that event through the visual and verbal composition. Therefore, despite his trial status, this research is aimed at examining the extended meaning depicted from his picture from one national media by identifying visual and verbal elements in the image as the effort to reveal intersemiotic relation between those multimodal modes. This research employed qualitative method, by administering six covers published in 2017 representing Setya Novanto as the news topic. The image and text elements from the cover were identified based on one of metafunctions initially proposed by Halliday (1994), the ideational function. Thus, the intersemiotic analysis were done by relating the visual and verbal meanings (Royce, 1998, 1999, 2002, 2015).Keywords: magazine cover, multimodal, intersemiotic

Authors: Миронов Денис Сергеевич
Published: November 2018

В статье освещены вопросы развития инновационной инфраструктуры, сочетающей и интегрирующей в себе ресурсы системной тетрады «производство – бизнес – наука – образование». Интегратором и составным её элементом предлагается рассматривать индустриальные парки. Установлены некоторые институциональные барьеры, препятствующие реализации их инновационного потенциала и полноценному функционированию в составе инновационной инфраструктуры: отсутствие законодательной и методологической базы управления промышленными парками, неэффективность системы налоговых льгот и элементов механизма ГЧП, недостаток новаторов, слабая адаптацией к внешней среде, неразвитость информационных центров, финансовых и маркетинговых институтов и др. Решение этих проблем будет способствовать формированию синергетических эффектов (в т.ч. повышение инновационности выпускаемой продукции (услуг)), которые могут быть транслированы на микро-, мезо- и макроуровни экономических отношений, в силу структурной открытости и гибкости промышленных парков.
В качестве основных результатов исследования предлагаются следующие: определены 1) ключевые функции и сферы деятельности индустриального парка как элемента инновационной инфраструктуры; 2) основные элементы инновационной инфраструктуры; 3) структура взаимодействия государства, инновационной деятельности и инфраструктуры; предложены 1) модель взаимодействия инновационного предпринимательства с инфраструктурой индустриального парка; 2) рекомендации по государственному регулированию процессов инновационного развития.

Authors: Климович Мария Александровна
Published: November 2018

Статья посвящена рассмотрению влияния институциональных факторов на структурные сдвиги в условиях новой научно-технологической парадигмы. Определены последствия функционирования российской экономики в рамках экспортно-сырьевой модели, проявляющиеся в структурных деформациях. Выявлено, что одной из основных причин незначительной доли позитивных структурных сдвигов в экономике, является низкий уровень институциональных условий. Определены особенности инвестиционного механизма в российской экономике как одного из наиболее значимых институтов финансовой системы. Обусловлена необходимость изменений в институциональной системе, потребность в развитии институциональных структур. Необходимость трансформации институциональной среды рассмотрена в трех аспектах: технологическом, организационном и как трансформация социальных институтов. Сделан вывод о том, что преобразования институциональной среды способствуют ускоренной диффузии новой научно-технологической парадигмы во всех сферах жизни общества. Выделены основные векторы институционального развития для российской экономики.
Методические вопросы организации субъектно-объектного взаимодействия заинтересованных групп при разработке промышленной политики в регионе
Authors: Светник Наталия Васильевна
Published: November 2018

В статье предпринята попытка выделения субъектов, заинтересованных в разработке региональной промышленной политики. Показано, что в российской теории и практике нет единого мнения по поводу толкования положений ФЗ «О промышленной политике в Российской Федерации» в отношении субъектов промышленной политики, приведено сравнение подходов к их определению и описанию деятельности. Сделан вывод, что, как правило, делается акцент не на описание деятельности субъектов промышленной политики, а требований к ней, без пояснений как ее можно осуществить на разных уровнях организации хозяйства.
Требуется выход за рамки общепринятого подхода к формированию промышленной политики через показатели и перенос акцента на методы ее разработки за счет коллективной мыследеятельности заинтересованных групп лиц. Площадка, на которой представляется возможным организовать взаимодействие всех субъектов — организационно-деятельностная игра, где на проектной основе возможно определение основных контуров региональной промышленной политики. Рассмотрены методические вопросы организации целенаправленного взаимодействия заинтересованных групп при формировании промышленной политики в регионе в составе позиционной стратификации субъектов, структурно-функциональной схемы организационно-деятельностной игры по разработке региональной промышленной политики и ее описания.

Combining course- and program-level outcomes assessments through embedded performance assessments at key courses: A proposal based on the experience from a Japanese dental education program
Authors: Matsushita Kayo , Ono Kazuhiro , Saito Yugo
Published: November 2018

This paper addresses how to combine the course- and program-level assessments and presents a new method illustrated by a case of dental education program in Japan. Performance assessments are considered effective for evaluating knowledge integration and higher-order skills, while placing a burden on faculty, hence their feasibility as the program-level assessment is regarded lower than standardized tests or questionnaire surveys. We have developed several performance assessments at the course level, such as Modified Triple Jump for the PBL course. Based on this experience, we propose Pivotal Embedded Performance Assessment (PEPA) as a method for combining assessment at the course and program levels. The method limits the range of performance assessment to key courses directly linked to program goals and placed at the critical juncture points of curriculum, while entrusting the assessment of other courses to expert judgment of individual teachers. PEPA consists of the following procedures: systematization of curriculum and selection of key courses; design and implementation of performance assessments by a faculty team; setting passing criteria with incorporating the function of formative assessment; certifying the completion of the degree program. PEPA thus enables maintaining assessment feasibility and compatibility with a credit system, while ensuring assessment validity and reliability.Received: 27 September 2018Accepted: 13 November 2018Published online: 29 November 2018
University as a global actor in the international system of the 21st Century
Authors: Del Canto Viterale Francisco
Published: November 2018

Since its foundation, the university has always been a relevant actor within the international system as the main producer and transmitter of scientific knowledge. Considered as a global actor and historically interrelated with multiple agents at the national and international level, the university must now face new and powerful challenges within the international context. Since the last decades of the 20th Century, the world has entered a vertiginous path of transformation, driven by multiple and profound global processes that have generated significant changes in all the parameters of the international system and have prompted the creation of a new international system. The research problem that arises in this work focuses on studying whether this new international stage will mean an opportunity for the university as an international actor to assume new roles on a global scale or if, on the contrary, whether threats and pressures will erode its global position. The main objective of the present investigation is to analyze the role of the university within the changing world order of the 21st Century and for this purpose it is proposed to know the main changes that operate in the current international system, to decipher how these new global trends affect the university and, understand how the university is reacting to these systemic changes. To achieve these objectives, an extensive literature review has been carried out within the fields of International Studies, Education Sciences, and other Social Sciences. Finally, it is expected to obtain as a result some concrete answers about the context, the impact and the reactions of the university to the modified international system to contribute to a much broader, complex and necessary debate regarding the future of the university as a global actor in the new international system of the 21st Century.Received: 27 September 2018Accepted: 12 November 2018Published online: 29 November 2018
Historical Study in the U.S.: Assessing the impact of Tuning within a professional disciplinary society
Authors: McInerney Daniel J.
Published: November 2018

The U.S.-based American Historical Association (AHA), the largest – and most influential – professional organization for historians, was the first disciplinary society in the world to lead a Tuning project, launching its work in 2012. This essay analyzes a survey distributed to historians on campuses that have taken part in the AHA Tuning project. The purpose is to understand, after six years of work on the project, what practical difference Tuning has made for historians, students, courses, curricula, and departments. Survey data indicate that, under the disciplinary society’s guidance and encouragement, historians have created meaningful learning outcomes, implemented the objectives in courses and curricula, and begun work in the measurement of student learning. Not surprisingly, the project has faced limits and obstacles, particularly with leadership of the work, faculty buy-in, administrative support, follow-up assistance, enrollment concerns, student engagement, and outreach to stakeholders. However, after half a dozen years of activity, U.S. historians have made marked progress not only in articulating disciplinary learning outcomes (as have colleagues in other parts of the world) but also in implementing and assessing those objectives. While precise readings of “impact” remain elusive, a Tuning project under the direction of a disciplinary society has helped generate significant pedagogical, curricular, and cultural changes in the field of history..Received: 03 April 2018Accepted: 12 November 2018Published online: 29 November 2018
Buena administración y la motivación de los actos administrativos expedidos en ejercicio de facultades discrecionales
Authors: Milkes S. Irit
Published: November 2018

La Administración pública, con independencia de la naturaleza de las facultades con las que actúa, debe observar los principios que orientan el ejercicio de su poder de decisión, de manera que se cumplan con las exigencias derivadas de la buena administración. Ahora bien, en el derecho colombiano se evidencia que, durante el ejercicio de facultades discrecionales, esta no necesariamente motiva la toma de decisiones; o en el caso en que lo hace, no ofrece razones y argumentos suficientes que permitan controvertir el acto administrativo por los destinatarios de este, o facilite el control por el juez administrativo. La presente investigación busca mostrar que la motivación de los actos administrativos va más allá de un simple requisito formal, por lo que esta se impone como una herramienta para la materialización de las prácticas que eviten la arbitrariedad y una mala administración.
Las potestades municipales y los bienes culturales: la reivindicación de la organización administrativa local
Authors: Vignolo Cueva Orlando
Published: November 2018

El presente trabajo examina las bases del derecho peruano de los bienes culturales, como un derecho administrativo especial material y orgánicamente. Es así como, además de ciertas cuestiones relacionadas con la organización administrativa, se acude a los conceptos de bienes culturales de los municipios y los bienes privados de interés público-cultural, como los urbanos que son de competencia local. Las reflexiones aquí contenidas se cuestionan acerca del rumbo que ha tomado la legislación peruana, con el fin de insistir en la importancia de encontrar un equilibrio entre las relaciones y las responsabilidades que actualmente comparten el Ministerio de Cultura y las municipalidades en el desarrollo de actividades tendientes a preservar y proteger los bienes que integran el patrimonio cultural de la nación.

Authors: KERİM Duygu , UZUNKULAOĞLU Aslıhan , AY Saime
Published: November 2018

Objectives:
The aim of this study isto determine the effectiveness of
balance training with Kinesthetic Ability Trainer (KAT
2000) in patients with peripheral neuropathic pain related balance
disorder. Methods: Sixty
patients were included into this controlled
prospective study and randomized into either balance exercises group (Group
1) or KAT 2000 exercises group (Group 2). Balance exercises were given to all
patients. Also, KAT 2000 balance exercises were
given all patients in Group 2 (n = 30). All patients received 45-min
individualized training session for three times a week for 4 weeks. Douleur Neuropathique 4 (DN4) questionnaire for neuropathic
pain; visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain severity; KAT 2000 for static and
dynamic balance; Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) for Quality of Life (QoL) was used. Dynamic balance and mobility also was assessed using the Berg
Balance Scale (BBS) and Time Up and Go (TUG) test. Patients were evaluated at baseline and the end of
the 4-week exercise program. Results: At the end of the treatment; VAS, BBS, KAT 2000, TUG, NHP,
physical activity, NHP pain, NHP social isolation and NHP emotional reactions scores
improved significantly in both groups (p
< 0.05) except NHP sleep
and NHP energy level scores in balance exercises
group (p > 0.05). Statistical differences in
VAS pain on movement, global assessment of patient, global assessment of
doctor, NHP energy level scores were found between the groups (p < 0.05); but there were no statistical difference in VAS at rest,
VAS at night, BBS, KAT 2000, TUG, NHP physical activity,
NHP pain, NHP sleep, NHP social
isolation and NHP emotional
reactions scores between the
groups (p > 0.05).

Conclusion: When combined with the KAT 2000 device,
positive effects of balance-coordination exercises on pain on movement and
energy level are more evident in patients with peripheral neuropathic pain.
Diagnostic and treatment challenges in focal liver disease
Authors: Zhao A. V. , Karmazanovsky G. G. , Bugaev S. A. , Chugunov A. O.
Published: November 2018

Finding a focal liver lesion during screening may not uncommonly lead to a misinterpretation of the results of radiological diagnostics. Based on the consolidation of our wide experience (more than 1000 cases) of surgical treatment of patients with various focal liver diseases, we analyzed the main causes of diagnostic pitfalls and, as a consequence, errors in the treatment of these patients. The most typical objective and subjective diagnostic pitfalls that may lead to a wrong treatment strategy are discussed with clinical cases taken as examples. The objective factors are related to the rarity of disease, absence of pathognomonic semiotics, as well as limitations in the resolution power of imaging methods. In addition, a misinterpretation of results of ultrasound examination, magnetic resonance imaging and multiaxial computed tomography may be explained by identical properties of images in different tumors related to similar physical and chemical properties of a  lesion. The subjective factors are related to a wrong interpretation of clinical and instrumental assessment data, or insufficient evaluation needed in an individual patient. The number of diagnostic and treatment errors could be decreased by a multidisciplinary approach taking into account the opinions of various profile experts.
Edutainment: A Creative Solution for School-Based Preventive Screening Orientation in Missouri
Authors: Cox Carol
Published: November 2018

School nurses provide routine formal vision and hearing health screenings to school children. However, time available during the school day for nurses to visit elementary classrooms and conduct pre-screening education and orientation is limited. A group of school nurses in Missouri needed an age-appropriate and time-saving method to introduce and orient children to the equipment, materials, and procedures that will be used on screening day. The school nurses collaborated with a health education specialist at a state university to develop two e-learning edutainment programs (one for vision screening and one for hearing screening) following best practices for educational design of e-learning programs. Edutainment is an e-learning technology that mixes education and entertainment using sound, video, and pictures. Edutainment is used to attract student attention through an enjoyable computer-based interaction to encourage focus on lesson content. The edutainment programs developed can be used by students at their own pace on their school-provided or personal devices, and/or the teacher can play the program module to the entire class as a group activity.
Nursing Faculty Coaches: Uncovering a Hidden Resource for NCLEX-RN Success
Authors: McKelvey Michele M. , Langevin Kerri M. , Konieczyny Leona , Espelin Jill M. , Peer Nancy , Christensen Stacy , Thomas Catherine
Published: November 2018

This article presents a nursing faculty department's strategy to empower nursing students identified as being at risk for not passing the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN) on the first attempt while significantly increasing the nursing program's overall first-time NCLEX-RN pass rate. These students were identified as being at risk because of their low scores on standardized assessments with national norms predicting the likelihood of passing the NCLEX on the first attempt. This account details the NCLEX-RN Coaching Partnership as an exemplar to support nursing students’ success through caring relationships with nursing faculty. Faculty coaches offered support, fostered confidence, and maintained accountability with the identified nursing students. The students provided positive feedback regarding the NCLEX-RN Coaching Partnership and ultimately attributed their passing to the coaching relationships. Seven of the eight identified students passed the examination on the first attempt; the overall program's first-time NCLEX-RN pass rate increased significantly from 78% to 90%.
Women’s Decision-Making About Birthplace Choices: Booking for Birth Center, Hospital, or Home Birth in the North of England
Authors: Lambert Carol , Jomeen Julie , McSherry Wilf
Published: November 2018

Aim:

This article presents findings from an interpretive phenomenological study that illuminates unique characteristics of the different social representations of antenatal primigravida and multigravida women who book to birth their babies in a birth center, hospital, or at home.

Methods:

Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 19 women and analyzed by interpretive phenomenological analysis.

Findings:

Analysis revealed different social representations independent of each other that illustrate how these social groups, determined by women’s collective voices, are uniquely characterized by group views, beliefs, misinterpretations, and preconceptions that establish what influences women in decision-making about choice of birthplace.

Conclusion:

Women make decisions about what they want for themselves in this birthing experience. These decisions are made long before this impending experience. Recognizing the different social representations of women in pregnancy reveals deeper insight into the complexities of women’s decision-making about birth choices and highlights why some women might opt for certain choices. Knowing that some women may make decisions based on little or misrepresented information confirms midwives are best placed in their interactions with women to provide positive influences, empowering them to make decisions based upon what they want for themselves. This affirms the woman and her midwife should remain partners in the decision-making process.
Consumer Evaluation of Antenatal Physiotherapy Education: How Useful Was It Really?
Authors: Beaumont Tara
Published: November 2018

Antenatal education programs that help women better prepare themselves for labor are commonly offered at maternity hospitals. Physiotherapy-led sessions are often incorporated into these programs and are geared toward providing practical advice to equip women with the skills to better cope with labor using nonpharmacological methods and to help promote physical recovery postnatally.

A two-phase consumer satisfaction evaluation project was completed: Phase 1 determined participants’ satisfaction immediately after session attendance; Phase 2 determined participants’ satisfaction and practical usefulness of the session when considered retrospectively following childbirth.

The Phase 1 consumer survey indicated strong consumer support and satisfaction—participants could clearly see the potential usefulness of the skills they had learnt and strongly believed they were going to apply these skills in labor.

When considered in retrospect (Phase 2), the overall value of the antenatal Physiotherapy session appears to be enhanced with a greater percentage of respondents strongly agreeing/agreeing that they felt better prepared approaching labor after session attendance in Phase 2 than Phase 1 (96.9% vs 90.7%). Women reported feeling empowered by the new skills but, more importantly, felt they were able to apply this information practically to help them better cope and recover.
Science Pipelines for the Square Kilometre Array
Authors: Farnes Jamie , Mort Ben , Dulwich Fred , Salvini Stef , Armour Wes
Published: November 2018

The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will be both the largest radio telescope ever constructed and the largest Big Data project in the known Universe. The first phase of the project will generate on the order of 5 zettabytes of data per year. A critical task for the SKA will be its ability to process data for science, which will need to be conducted by science pipelines. Together with polarization data from the LOFAR Multifrequency Snapshot Sky Survey (MSSS), we have been developing a realistic SKA-like science pipeline that can handle the large data volumes generated by LOFAR at 150 MHz. The pipeline uses task-based parallelism to image, detect sources, and perform Faraday Tomography across the entire LOFAR sky. The project thereby provides a unique opportunity to contribute to the technological development of the SKA telescope, while simultaneously enabling cutting-edge scientific results. In this paper, we provide an update on current efforts to develop a science pipeline that can enable tight constraints on the magnetised large-scale structure of the Universe.

Published: November 2018

Capsicum annuum var. glabriusculum, is a variety of wild chili pepper belonging to the family Solanaceae and is considered as the origin for all cultivated chili species of the world. This species is an important genetic resource for agriculture and food, is widely distributed in northeastern Mexico in altitudes from 0 – 1200 m.a.s.l. This species grows mainly at low altitudes and its upper limit reaches 1000m., it prefers temperatures above 18.3O C and its production and harvest may ocurr at two seasons, one during the beginning of the summer and the main one ocurring in the middle of the autumn in northeast México. It is estimated that the main production occurs in the state of Tamaulipas with 84 tons per year and is harvested from 23 municipalities. Concentration of capseicins and dihydrocapsaicine from wild populations may vary considerably from one location to another in the municipalities, ecotypes and diverse climatic conditions from this wide geographic zone. The high demands of wild chili as well as the variability on concentration of capseicins in fruits are considered as some of the main reasons why intensive cultivation of this species should be carried out in Northeastern Mexico.
California’s Senate Bill 277: Local Health Jurisdictions’ Experiences With the Elimination of Nonmedical Vaccine Exemptions
Authors: Mohanty Salini , Buttenheim Alison M. , Joyce Caroline M. , Howa Amanda C. , Salmon Daniel , Omer Saad B.
Published: November 2018

Objectives. To understand the experiences of local health jurisdictions with Senate Bill 277 (SB277), the California law that eliminated nonmedical vaccine exemptions for public- and private-school entry.

Methods. We conducted semistructured telephone interviews with health officers and local health department (LHD) staff in California between August and September 2017.

Results. Two overall themes emerged: (1) vague legislative and regulatory language led to variation in the interpretation and implementation of SB277, and (2) lack of centralized review of medical exemptions allowed medical exemptions that are not consistent with valid contraindications for immunizations to be accepted. Variation in the interpretation and implementation was commonly reported with provisions related to individualized education programs and special education, and independent study programs and homeschooling. Without a centralized review of medical exemption requests, respondents reported variation in the interpretation of which specialties of physicians can write medical exemptions, which conditions constitute a valid contraindication for immunization, and the process for reporting a questionable or suspicious medical exemption.

Conclusions. The regulatory language within SB277 led to variation in how the law was interpreted and implemented within and across LHD jurisdictions and school districts.
A Systematic Approach to Magnetic Resonance Imaging Interpretation of Sports Medicine Injuries of the Hip
Authors: Lewis Paul B. , Weber Alexander E. , Kuhns Benjamin D. , Nho Shane J.
Published: November 2018

* A systematic approach to interpretation of magnetic resonance imaging of the hip and pelvis can facilitate identifying imaging findings that correlate with the clinical history and physical examination.

* This systematic approach flows outside-to-inside. Images with a large field of view are used for internal (i.e., side-to-side) comparison of the pelvic musculature, bursae, abdominal wall, and pelvic bones as would be done during the interpretation of a pelvic radiograph. Images with a small field of view are then used for the inspection of bursae, bone, capsule, labrum, and articular cartilage.

* If a reasonable diagnosis is not found through a systematic approach to a hip magnetic resonance image, it is advised to further direct the search pattern by incorporating the clinical information or directing attention to visceral, gynecologic, or urologic pathology that can refer pain to the groin and mimic internal derangement of the hip.

L’alimentation des modèles de croissance et vis-à-vis de l’état de santé des lapins nourris au maïs qui a été remplacé par des résidus d’amidon de manioc fermentée par voie microbienne (MFCSR) a été évaluée dans un essai de huit semaines. Cent cinquante, 5 semaine sevré les lapins ont été aléatoirement affectés à 5 traitements alimentaires dans un complètement aléatoire. Chaque traitement a été répliqué 10 fois avec 3 lapins par répétition. La moyenne quotidienne de la prise de l’alimentation le lapin a (59.83-68.02g par lapin par jour) avec l’augmentation de l’inclusion (MFCSR y3 = 5.2202x3 3355.9 ; R2 = 0,36) ; alors que le gain de poids total n’a augmenté avec l’augmentation de l’inclusion (MFCSR 1106.89-1264.89 g par lapin) jusqu’à 50 % (y2 =1234.8-3.7045x2 ; R2 = 0,31) et a diminué par la suite. Cela a été appuyé par des modèles mathématiques polynôme 2o. Seul le poids abattu (1346.71 - 1818.88g), habillé (poids 704.83-832.02g) et poids relatif des reins (0.53-0.74 %) étaient significatives (P < 0,05). Alors que le sang, les indices mesurés varient à l’exception des métabolites sériques ont été LDL stable entre les groupes de traitement. Il est suggéré que la composante de maïs du régime alimentaire du lapin en croissance pourrait être remplacé jusqu’à 50 % avec MFCSR et la croissance et d’alimentation développés modèles pourraient être adoptées à l’aide d’MFCSR d’améliorer la production de lapins.

Os tratamentos foram: 2 V/C= V e C 2 vezes ao dia; 1 V/C= V e C 1 vez ao dia; 1 V/2C= V 1 vez e C 2 vezes ao dia; 1 V/3C= V 1 vez e C 3 vezes ao dia para vacas ou novilhas. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi o inteiramente casualizado em arranjo fatorial 4 x 2, com 4 repetições. Não houve interação significativa entre frequência de fornecimento e categorias animal. O consumo de matéria seca (CMS) foi superior para os animais alimentados 1 V/2C e 1 V/3C ao dia em relação ao fornecimento de 2 V/C e 1 V/C, apresentando valores de 11,7; 11,4; 10,6 e 10,7 kg, respectivamente. O ganho de peso diário não foi influenciado pelas frequências de fornecimentos. O CMS foi superior para as vacas (12,6 kg) em relação às novilhas (9,57 kg), não havendo diferença para o ganho de peso. O aumento nas frequências do fornecimento do concentrado para 2 ou 3 vezes proporcionou maior consumo, não influenciando o ganho de peso.

Se estudiaron 60 corderos de raza Canaria y 60 de raza Canaria de Pelo, mitad machos y mitad hembras, sacrificados a 9,78±0,49 kg; 15,8±0,66 kg y 24,9±0,76 kg. El objetivo del trabajo fue conocer el efecto de la raza, sexo y peso de sacrificio sobre la importancia porcentual del quinto cuarto y sus componentes. El peso total del quinto cuarto fue mayor en la raza Canaria, aunque su porcentaje de órganos comestibles, fue inferior al de la raza Canaria de Pelo. Los intestinos, la piel y la cabeza fueron las partes que mayor peso porcentual tuvieron. Al aumentar el peso de sacrificio, la importancia del quinto cuarto se redujo debido al menor porcentaje de cabeza y autópodos. En los machos, la cabeza, vejiga y autópodos, alcanzaron mayor proporción y en las hembras, la piel. El porcentaje de piel incrementó al aumentar el peso de sacrificio sólo en los corderos de lana.

En Bélgica, y generalmente en Europa, la posición dominante de estirpes comerciales altamente productivas, especializadas en la producción de carne o huevos, amenaza de extinción a las razas locales tradicionales. Se ha realizado, en 2005 y 2010, un seguimiento de las tasas de consanguinidad de razas de gallinas belgas. Unas cuarenta razas han sido consideradas. Las razas belgas de gallinas se encuentran abrumado-ramente en peligro de extinción a causa del escaso número de individuos en cada raza. Para cada una de las razas fueron considerados varios criterios: estado de riesgo, relación reproductores machos/reproductores hembra, tamaño efectivo de población, relación tamaño efectivo/tamaño actual y tasa de consanguinidad.

A estatística circular é aplicada a dados em que é possível notar um comportamento periódico que caracteriza a obtenção dos chamados dados circulares. A existência de um ritmo circadiano no metabolismo de abelhas africanizadas pode influenciar no horário de mortalidade de operárias e de emergência de rainhas, sendo obtidas nesse caso, medidas circulares, caracterizadas pelo horário de ocorrência de tais eventos. As visitas de abelhas às flores de uma planta podem, igualmente, fornecer dados circulares. A finalidade do trabalho foi verificar aplicabilidade da estatística circular em dados apícolas. Utilizaram-se os dados de três experimentos: 1- forrageamento de abelhas em alecrim do campo; 2- emergência de rainhas e 3- horário de mortalidade de operárias (considerando-se o horário de montagem de experimento à noite (19 h 30 min) e durante o dia (7 h 30 min)). Todos os conjuntos de dados utilizados foram testados em relação a duas distribuições: uniforme e Von Mises (ou normal circular) e foram ajustados à segunda. Concluiu-se que, para o forrageamento de abelhas no alecrim o modelo da normal circular é com um horário médio de forrageamento igual a 11 h 29 min com grande dispersão. Existe também um ritmo circadiano que regula o horário de emergência de rainhas e de mortalidade das abelhas operárias. Para o experimento de emergência de rainhas obteve-se o intervalo de confiança a 95 % para a média circular igual a (4 h 12 min; 9 h 05 min). O horário médio de mortalidade no caso da montagem realizada durante o dia ocorre após 4 h 18 min, com longevidade estimada em 8 h e 37 min, enquanto para indivíduos mantidos sob as mesmas condições, sendo alterado apenas o horário de montagem do experimento para as 19 h 30 min, estima-se uma longevidade de 19 horas e 37 minutos. É recomendável, portanto que, para a execução de experimentos laboratoriais com adultos de abelhas, seja incluído na metodologia experimental o horário de montagem do experimento.

El objetivo de este estudio fue estimar parámetros genéticos y fenotípicos en características productivas y reproductivas en ganado Holstein y Jersey de Antioquia, Colombia. La información fue obtenida de 85 hatos lecheros de raza Holstein y 7 hatos de raza Jersey, ubicados en 18 municipios del Departamento de Antioquia. Las características productivas evaluadas fueron: producción de leche (PL), porcentaje de proteína (PP), porcentaje de grasa (PG) y puntaje de células somáticas (SCS) y las características reproductivas evaluadas fueron: intervalo entre partos (IEP), días abiertos (DA), número de servicios por concepción (NSC) y tasa de concepción (TC). Los componentes de (co)varianza, los parámetros genéticos y fenotípicos fueron estimados empleando modelos mixtos univariados y bivariados y las soluciones de las ecuaciones de los modelos mixtos fueron obtenidas mediante el método de máxima verosimilitud restricta libre de derivadas. Las heredabilidades obtenidas para características productivas oscilaron entre 0,22 y 0,35, excepto para SCS que fueron bajas (h2

En el presente estudio se analiza la situación actual del sector ovino de carne en el espacio geográfico de la IGP (Indicación Geográfica Protegida) Cordero Segureño. Se presentan los resultados descriptivos de las 93 encuestas realizadas donde se analizan las principales fortalezas y debilidades que presenta la situación actual de los ganaderos. Se trata de una cabaña ganadera de alta rusticidad cuyo rendimiento productivo puede aumentar con una selección genética encaminada hacia una mayor pureza racial. Existe una buena predisposición a utilizar el sello de calidad, si bien el asociacionismo tanto en la producción como en la comercialización es bajo. El relevo generacional podría aumentarse si se logra mejorar a medio plazo el rendimiento productivo de las explotaciones con políticas de producción basadas en la calidad. Ternasco de Aragón, podría ser un buen referente cara a inspirar las medidas de mejora en la difusión de la nueva IGP Cordero Segureño.

La utilización de semen enfriado en inseminación artificial (IA) porcina sigue siendo una limitante, ya que la respuesta frente a temperaturas menores a 16 °C es aleatoria entre cerdos, y aún entre eyaculados del mismo cerdo. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue jerarquizar la capacidad para la conservación de dosis refrigeradas durante 4 días de tres diluyentes comerciales (de larga o media duración) de semen porcino (Androstar Plus®, MRA® y MIII®), analizando: viabilidad, funcionalidad de membrana, integridad acrosomal y movilidad en 11 eyaculados procedentes de 3 verracos. No existieron diferencias (p>0,05) entre diluyentes por lo que sería similar su capacidad de conservación durante un período de 4 días.

O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a qualidade percebida por diferentes agentes da cadeia produtiva da carne bovina com marcas no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul e o grau de uniformidade entre as diferentes percepções. Os dados foram obtidos por meio de uma pesquisa exploratória descritiva, utilizando-se como instrumento de coleta de dados um questionário-base estruturado com seis questões que abrangiam sete níveis da cadeia de produção: i) consumidores, ii) açougueiros, iii) gerentes de perecíveis e iv) gerentes gerais dos supermercados, v) gerentes de vendas de carne e vi) gerentes de compra de gado da indústria frigorífica e vii) produtores rurais. Os resultados mostraram que mesmo numa cadeia de carne de qualidade com valor agregado, o fator de maior influência na compra da carne pelo consumidor foi o preço e a fonte de informações mais importante aos consumidores ainda é o açougueiro. Das questões pesquisadas, o maior coeficiente de variação foi observado nas questões quem pode dar informações sobre qualidade de carne para os consumidores? e em sua opinião, a raça garante melhor qualidade à carne?, mostrando baixa concordância entre os agentes de carne (60 %). Por outro lado, a maior uniformidade (30 %) de respostas foi observada nas questões marque a importância de 1 a 5 dos fatores de maior influência na hora da compra de carne e em ordem, quais são as informações mais importantes como indicadores de qualidade da carne?. Concluiu-se que os diferentes agentes da cadeia de produção possuem entendimento relativamente uniforme a respeito da qualidade de carne entre si e possuem boa percepção das preferências dos consumidores.
