Published: September 2017

En este artículo se analiza el comportamiento de una línea de potencia de núcleo entorchado frente a una de núcleo sólido, cuando son estas usadas como líneas de transmisión en sistemas PLC. Para su análisis, seconsidera el modelo de parámetros distribuidos de resistencia, inductancia, capacitancia y conductancia, de una línea de potencia como línea de transmisión basada en la teoría de dos puertos. La diferencia básica en el comportamiento de las líneas de transmisión propuestas es debido al factor de corrección de la resistencia (XR), introducido por la línea núcleo entorchado; este factor presenta respuesta en frecuenciainversa a la resistencia, logrando ecualizar la atenuación de la línea de transmisión. Concluyendo en el diseño de sistemas de comunicación sobre la red eléctrica que el uso de líneas de núcleo entorchadocomo líneas de transmisión tiene mejor desempeño frente a líneas núcleo sólido.

TEACHING LEXICALLY FROM VERTICAL LISTS TO HORIZONTAL ALTERNATIVES
Authors: Subandowo Dedy
Published: September 2017

Abstract Teaching vocabulary for young learners by giving it into semantic set will not help them understand how the words are used. In elementary coursebook, the vocabulary is presented in list semantic set that is semantically related items such as jobs doctor, teacher, lawyer etc. or colours: red, blue, yellow etc.). This idea is really restrictive to develop the students’ vocabulary mastery. It seems that teaching vocabulary in semantically related items is counter-productive but this idea has never been taken on board. The question is Why do students have to go through so much learning of things which they are hardly ever likely to say?. (Estatiev, 2015) and (Leoselivan, 2014) introduce the way to teach students’ vocabulary by developing the students’ idea through communicative purpose beyond the basic description. Developing alternatives in horizontal lists instead of semantic set lists will make learners find the words in which they are likely to go with (co-text) rather than with other words sharing the same superordinate concept. The easy samples are colour and animal. Focusing them in three at a time and present would be more affective to fix the word collocation such as noun that can go along with adjective or noun collocation.  Keyword: EFL, Semantic Set, Teaching Lexically, Vocabulary Mastery

A partir de las cédulas censales del Primer y Segundo Censo Nacional Argentino (1869 y 1895) se analiza la población y actividades productivas del partido de San Vicente (provincia de Buenos Aires) y de Almirante Brown en 1895. Esta última jurisdicción que fue creada en 1873, en parte a expensas de San Vicente.

Exploraremos la evolución entre ambas fechas de la composición de la población en su conjunto y de las diferentes comunidades así como de las actividades que desempeñaban sus miembros. Veremos algunos de los cambios que conoció la zona en ese periodo y el impacto que representó la migración que, más allá de los ya bien conocidos e innegables beneficios que aportó, tuvo igualmente repercusiones contrastadas para algunos sectores de la población local.
Cambios estructurales e institucionales del cooperativismo agrícola entrerriano en la postconvertibilidad (2002-2013). El caso de La Agrícola Regional Cooperativa de Crespo
Authors: Soleno Wilches Ronald
Published: September 2017

El propósito del trabajo es establecer los principales cambios organizacionales e institucionales desplegados por el cooperativismo agropecuario de la provincia de Entre Ríos (Argentina) para hacer frente a las transformaciones del sistema agroalimentario en la etapa de la postconvertibilidad. La metodología empleada es fundamentalmente cualitativa y se basa en el análisis del caso de La Agrícola Regional Cooperativa de Crespo (LAR). Los hallazgos más importantes permiten observar que las estrategias organizacionales e institucionales adoptadas por LAR le han permitido consolidarse como una “gran empresa cooperativa”, cuya compleja estructura (expresada en la multiplicidad de rubros, sucursales, alianzas estratégicas, entre otros) le otorga a la entidad una adecuada capacidad de respuesta frente a las perturbaciones del contexto. El posicionamiento de la misma como organización líder del sistema productivo local, su fuerte arraigo socio-territorial y la naturaleza del entramado de relaciones que se construyen, hacen difícil concebir al territorio sin la presencia de la cooperativa y la existencia de esta última separada de su ámbito de pertenencia.

Este artigo teve por objetivo compreender como as variáveis relacionadas ao tipo de trabalho, à renda, ao acesso a bens de consumo, a serviços e tecnologias da informação e da comunicação manifestam-se no perfil das famílias que habitam o campo no Brasil. Utilizou-se dados da Pesquisa Nacional de Amostra de Domicílios (PNAD), referentes ao estado de Minas Gerais. Observou-se, em termos dos resultados finais, que o processo de mudança do modo de vida rural se dá de forma mais visível nas variáveis relacionadas ao consumo, no que se refere ao acesso à bens e serviços de origem urbana.
GUARDA DOS FILHOS: IGUALDADE CONSTITUCIONAL ENTRE PAI E MÃE

Published: September 2017

O estudo trata do direito do pai de concorrer em igualdade com a mãe pela guarda dos filhos, numa perspectiva social e jurídica. Embora tenha havido evolução na sociedade com significativas mudanças nos papéis desempenhados dentro da família, a mulher ainda é, presumidamente, considerada mais apta à criação dos filhos, o que impõe ao homem, que deseja ser o guardião, primeiro, provar a incapacidade da mãe para só depois demonstrar suas reais condições. Isso porque a cultura ocidental, mesmo nos dias atuais, preserva o mito materno, entendido como determinismo biológico presente em todas as mulheres. Todavia, os novos valores trazidos pela Constituição Federal de 1988 legitimam a guarda monoparental àquele genitor que, efetivamente, mais proteja os interesses das crianças e dos adolescentes, sem preferência determinada pelo gênero. Pai e mãe são iguais em direitos e deveres, cabendo ao Poder Judiciário, quando necessário impor a guarda unilateral, partir desta premissa para identificar qual dos genitores assegurará, de fato, ao menor - pessoa em desenvolvimento que requer prioridade absoluta - o seu melhor interesse.

Informações nos rótulos são importantes para orientar o consumidor sobre os alimentos. As resoluções RDC 259 de 20/09/2002 (rotulagem dos alimentos embalados) e RDC 360 de 23/12/2003 (rotulagem nutricional), da ANVISA/MS, visam garantir informações básicas ao consumidor. Óleos vegetais são produtos muito consumidos, extraídos da soja, canola, milho, girassol, entre outras fontes e seu consumo tem crescido devido principalmente à substituição da gordura animal e atualmente justifica-se também pelas propriedades funcionais dos ácidos graxos mono e poliinsaturados presentes. O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar rotulagens geral e nutricional de óleos vegetais de diferentes origens e marcas, verificando adequação à legislação e parâmetros opcionais considerados importantes. Foram analisados 35 rótulos de 20 marcas diferentes de óleos de canola, girassol, milho e soja, coletados em supermercados da região de Belo Horizonte - MG. Foi possível concluir que a rotulagem obrigatória está sendo respeitada, mas as informações adicionais opcionais apresentaram grande variação, justificando uma maior padronização pelos órgãos responsáveis.
AS PRÁTICAS DE DIVERTIMENTO NA CIDADE DE CAMPINA GRANDE/PB: ESTUDO DE CASO SOBRE O CASSINO ELDORADO

Published: September 2017

Inserido em um contexto socioeconômico da cidade de Campina Grande, o projeto do Casino Eldorado foi pensado pelo empresário campinense João Veríssimo e executado pelo arquiteto Isac Soares, tendo como objetivo atender novas demandas exigidas pelos discursos modernos de práticas de divertimento e status. Desde a inauguração no ano de 1937, o Casino Eldorado apresentava uma vida noturna agitada e glamourosa, com vários clientes ricos, seu público era de, principalmente, comerciantes, políticos e boêmios da cidade de Campina Grande, mas também que vinham de outros Estados. Sendo assim, o presente artigo visa analisar como o Casino Eldorado se tornou referência na região, com intuito de resgatar um pouco da história e memória do mencionado cassino, verificando suas principais atrações noturnas, sobretudo, as representadas pelas mulheres que divertiam os clientes nas dependências do Casino. Para tanto, me apoiei nos estudos de Dinoá (1993) e Gutemberg (2004), bem como na realização de entrevistas orais de um ex frequentador do Casino e de uma moradora da cidade que morou durante muitos anos na mesma rua que as mulheres que trabalhavam no Casino. Por fim, conclui-se que o Casino passou declinar entre os anos de 1960-1970, com a abertura de novos cabarés na cidade. Porém, mesmo assim continua a exercer no imaginário social atual uma curiosidade sobre suas noites de glamour, tendo seu cenário representado há décadas no Parque do Povo durante as festividades juninas.

El objetivó del presente trabajo fue estudiar tres espaciamientos y tres densidades de plantas con variación de 20 a 120 mil plantas por hectárea, sobre el rendimiento y sus principales componentes en el desarrollo de dos variedades de frijol vigna unguiculata. El experimento fue conducido en campo en el Área Experimental del Instituto Federal de Educación, Ciencia y Tecnología de Pernambuco - Campus Belo Jardín (IFPE). El delineamiento experimental fue en bloques al azar en un esquema factorial 3 x 3 x 2 x 8 con tres repeticiones, tres espaciamientos entre líneas (1,00 m, 0,75 m y 0,50 m), tres densidades de plantío (2, 4 y 6 plantas por metro lineal), dos cultivares (IPA 207 y BR Gurguéia) y ocho muestreos (tiempo). Las parcelas experimentales fueron constituidas de 6, 8 12 líneas de 5 m de largo cada uno, siendo el área útil formada por dos líneas centrales, despreciándose 0,5 m en ambas extremidades de cada línea. El número de granos por vaina no fue influenciado por los diferentes arreglos de plantas y el incremento en el espaciamiento de plantas de frijol vigna promueve reducciones significativas en el número de vainas por planta y en la producción de granos. La variedad IPA-207 presentó mayor rendimiento de granos que la BR Gurguéia en los diferentes espaciamientos.

Role of Exhaled Nasal Nitric Oxide in Distinguishing between Chronic Rhinosinusitis with and without Nasal Polyps
Authors: Liu Chengyao , Zheng Ming , He Fei , Wang Xiangdong , Zhang Luo
Published: September 2017

Background

Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and CRS without nasal polyps (CRSsNP) nasal polyps is a global health concern. Several clinical biomarkers, such as inhaled carbon monoxide and exhaled nitric oxide (NO), have been studied to assess the presence and degree of inflammation in the airway mucosa.

Objective

To evaluate the clinical application of exhaled nasal NO (nNO) in distinguishing between CRSwNP and CRSsNP in consideration of the atopic status of patients.

Methods

Eighty-eight patients with CRS and 20 healthy volunteers were recruited for this study. The exhaled nNO level was measured by using a hand-held device. Nasal endoscopy (with Lund-Mackay scoring of CRS) and sinus computed tomographies (CT) were used to evaluate the nasal cavity and sinuses of the subjects. Atopic status was confirmed by using skin prick tests (SPTs).

Results

The mean ∓ standard deviation (SD) levels of nNO in patients with CRSsNP were significantly higher than those in patients with CRSwNP (591 ∓ 153 ppb versus 360 ∓ 181 ppb, p <0.001), whereas patients with CRS exhibited lower levels of nNO compared with the control subjects (449 ∓ 204 ppb versus 881 ∓ 161 ppb, p <0.001). Patients with atopy and with and without nasal polyps exhibited significantly higher levels of nNO compared with patients without atopy (atopic CRSsNP versus nonatopic CRSsNP, 734 ∓ 220 ppb versus 503 ∓ 92 ppb [p <0.001]; atopic CRSwNP versus nonatopic CRSwNP, 518 ∓ 161 ppb versus 299 ∓ 150 ppb [p <0.001]). The levels of nNO were negatively correlated with the Lund-Mackay scores in both atopic (r = -0.45; p = 0.016) and nonatopic (r = -0.600; p <0.001) patients with CRS. Receiver operating characteristic curves differentiated patients as CRSwNP, CRSsNP, and healthy controls, and in atopic and nonatopic subgroups, with acceptable sensitivity and specificity (>70 to 90%).

Conclusion

Exhaled nNO levels can be used to distinguish between patients with CRSwNP and patients with CRSsNP. However, the atopic status of the patient influenced the use of nNO as a diagnostic or monitoring biomarker in CRS.
