Automatic topological structural synthesis algorithm of planar simple joint kinematic chains
Authors: Zou Yanhuo , He Peng , Pei Yongle
Published: March 2016

Structural synthesis of kinematic chains is one of the most important and challenging mathematical problems in the field of conceptual design stage of mechanisms. In this article, an automatic topological structural synthesis algorithm has been proposed for planar simple joint kinematic chains. At first, the planar simple joint kinematic chains can be represented by single-color topological graph and corresponding link-joint incident matrix. Then, the corresponding incident matrices of planar simple joint kinematic chains with special input parameters can be formed with the single kinematic chain adding method with the help of isomorphic identification. Finally, based on the procedure for the single-color topological graph automatic drawing, an automatic topological structural synthesis algorithm of planar simple joint kinematic chains with specified degree of freedom F and number of links n can be synthesized in batch, while there are several examples to show the effectiveness of this method.
Conceptual multiplicity or ontological politics?
Authors: Greenhough Beth
Published: March 2016

Simon and Randalls’ piece does an excellent job of highlighting how resilience is divergently articulated across multiple sites, however the article is characterized by an oscillation between an examination of contrasting discourses of resilience (reflected in the ways it is defined and conceptualized) and an attention to specific empirical incidents of its enactment (offering a basis for ontological politics). I argue this limits the analysis in terms of failures to engage with: (i) the materiality of literary representation; (ii) the specificity of tactics for imagining (as opposed to intervening in) ontological futures; and (iii) the more-than-human contingencies of resilience interventions.
Imagined communities? Contextualizing claims about the White working class
Authors: Kintrea Keith
Published: March 2016

The authors of ‘Community, Virtue and the White British Poor’ argue that poor White communities can still organize themselves to protect their interests and, therefore, produce ‘virtue’ – good and admirable qualities among their members. This response suggests that the argument is poorly founded both in terms of its understanding of the White British poor and in terms of its conceptualization of socio-spatial processes in poor communities and especially in the misleading conclusions drawn from examples of communities provided.
Work-related well-being
Authors: Soh Melinda , Zarola Antonio , Palaiou Kat , Furnham Adrian
Published: March 2016

This study aimed to investigate the different dimensions of well-being (namely, work engagement, job satisfaction, and psychological stress) and possible predictors such as personality and perceived organizational support. A cross-sectional survey design was used, with a sample of 490 ambulance personnel in the United Kingdom. Significant correlations were found between the dimensions of job satisfaction, engagement, and stress. The results also supported a hierarchical model with job satisfaction, stress, and engagement loading onto one higher order factor of work well-being. Emotional stability and perceived organizational support were identified as significant predictors of well-being. The findings suggest the importance of measuring the work-related well-being of ambulance personnel holistically and present perceived organizational support as a possible area for interventions to improve well-being.
Interval laparoscopic abdominal cerclage for recurrent pregnancy loss
Authors: Gunasheela Devika , Nayak Rajsekhar , Roy Priyankur , Kumar Vasanth , Menon Jyothi
Published: March 2016

Abdominal cerclages are necessary when the standard trans-vaginal cerclages fail or anatomical abnormalities preclude the vaginal placement. In 1965, Benson and Durfee described an abdominal approach to cerclage, a procedure that was applied to congenitally short or surgically amputated cervices. Thirty-eight women with history of either recurrent mid-trimester pregnancy losses, short cervix or failed vaginal cerclage had trans-abdominal cerclage, of which 30 were done laparoscopically. A 5-mm non-absorbable needled polyester fibre tape (Mersilene) suture was placed laparoscopically at the level of the internal os as an interval procedure. All the procedures were successful. All women were discharged on post-operative day 2 and none of them required blood transfusions. There were no intraoperative or post-operative complications. Subsequently, 15 patients conceived and the foetal survival rate recorded was as high as 85.71%. Some patients manifest severe cervical injures, and others have apparent congenital absence of the cervix, rendering Shirodkar or McDonald cerclage technically difficult or impossible. The main interest of this technique is to avoid a laparotomy; thus, reducing the morbidities of a laparotomy and also the recovery time post-surgery.
Yarning and appreciative inquiry: The use of culturally appropriate and respectful research methods when working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women in Australian prisons
Authors: Leeson Sjharn , Smith Catrin , Rynne John
Published: March 2016

With First Peoples and non–First Peoples scholars alike questioning the efficacy of research methods based solely upon accepted social science research paradigms with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander populations, innovative and ontologically inclusive alternatives require consideration. Research conducted with incarcerated Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women in the Northern Territory and Western Australia may provide such an opportunity, arguing for a method of ‘research at the interface’ that utilises appreciative inquiry with culturally appropriate conversations (yarning). Employed across four prisons, the interface research method was applied as an innovative solution to measuring prison performance. It highlighted the lived experience of incarceration while re-imagining the prison, as it exists when it functions at its best. The article begins with a snapshot of the research conducted with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women in prisons across the Northern Territory and Western Australia; this provides a frame through which to consider the efficacy of interfacing First Peoples research paradigms with Western traditional modes of research. Furthermore, the innovative application of appreciative inquiry to the prison is discussed. Given that appreciative inquiry explores and privileges the narrative as a means of making sense of the prison experience, the authors suggest it complements the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander tradition of ‘yarning’. A yarning style represents a way of ensuring cultural safety, respect and the utilisation of First Peoples ontology to research conducted with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women. Overall, it is delineated how interfacing appreciative inquiry and yarning may provide a viable alternative to the deep colonising and perpetually oppressive use of Western modes of scholarship when engaging in research with First Peoples.
Overcoming Barriers in Unhealthy Settings
Authors: Lemke Michael K. , Meissen Gregory J. , Apostolopoulos Yorghos
Published: March 2016

We investigated the phenomenon of sustained health-supportive behaviors among long-haul commercial truck drivers, who belong to an occupational segment with extreme health disparities. With a focus on setting-level factors, this study sought to discover ways in which individuals exhibit resiliency while immersed in endemically obesogenic environments, as well as understand setting-level barriers to engaging in health-supportive behaviors. Using a transcendental phenomenological research design, 12 long-haul truck drivers who met screening criteria were selected using purposeful maximum sampling. Seven broad themes were identified: access to health resources, barriers to health behaviors, recommended alternative settings, constituents of health behavior, motivation for health behaviors, attitude toward health behaviors, and trucking culture. We suggest applying ecological theories of health behavior and settings approaches to improve driver health. We also propose the Integrative and Dynamic Healthy Commercial Driving (IDHCD) paradigm, grounded in complexity science, as a new theoretical framework for improving driver health outcomes.

Background

Anxiety disorders are common, and cognitive–behavioural therapy (CBT) is a first-line treatment. Candidate gene studies have suggested a genetic basis to treatment response, but findings have been inconsistent.

Aims

To perform the first genome-wide association study (GWAS) of psychological treatment response in children with anxiety disorders (n = 980).

Method

Presence and severity of anxiety was assessed using semi-structured interview at baseline, on completion of treatment (post-treatment), and 3 to 12 months after treatment completion (follow-up). DNA was genotyped using the Illumina Human Core Exome-12v1.0 array. Linear mixed models were used to test associations between genetic variants and response (change in symptom severity) immediately post-treatment and at 6-month follow-up.

Results

No variants passed a genome-wide significance threshold (P=5×10–8) in either analysis. Four variants met criteria for suggestive significance (P<5×10–6) in association with response post-treatment, and three variants in the 6-month follow-up analysis.

Conclusions

This is the first genome-wide therapygenetic study. It suggests no common variants of very high effect underlie response to CBT. Future investigations should maximise power to detect single-variant and polygenic effects by using larger, more homogeneous cohorts.
ATR-101, a Selective and Potent Inhibitor of Acyl-CoA Acyltransferase 1, Induces Apoptosis in H295R Adrenocortical Cells and in the Adrenal Cortex of Dogs
Authors: LaPensee Christopher R. , Mann Jacqueline E. , Rainey William E. , Crudo Valentina , Hunt Stephen W. , Hammer Gary D.
Published: March 2016

ATR-101 is a novel, oral drug candidate currently in development for the treatment of adrenocortical cancer. ATR-101 is a selective and potent inhibitor of acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol O-acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1), an enzyme located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane that catalyzes esterification of intracellular free cholesterol (FC). We aimed to identify mechanisms by which ATR-101 induces adrenocortical cell death. In H295R human adrenocortical carcinoma cells, ATR-101 decreases the formation of cholesteryl esters and increases FC levels, demonstrating potent inhibition of ACAT1 activity. Caspase-3/7 levels and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase 2′-deoxyuridine 5′-triphosphate nick end labeled-positive cells are increased by ATR-101 treatment, indicating activation of apoptosis. Exogenous cholesterol markedly potentiates the activity of ATR-101, suggesting that excess FC that cannot be adequately esterified increases caspase-3/7 activation and subsequent cell death. Inhibition of calcium release from the ER or the subsequent uptake of calcium by mitochondria reverses apoptosis induced by ATR-101. ATR-101 also activates multiple components of the unfolded protein response, an indicator of ER stress. Targeted knockdown of ACAT1 in an adrenocortical cell line mimicked the effects of ATR-101, suggesting that ACAT1 mediates the cytotoxic effects of ATR-101. Finally, in vivo treatment of dogs with ATR-101 decreased adrenocortical steroid production and induced cellular apoptosis that was restricted to the adrenal cortex. Together, these studies demonstrate that inhibition of ACAT1 by ATR-101 increases FC, resulting in dysregulation of ER calcium stores that result in ER stress, the unfolded protein response, and ultimately apoptosis.

Perfil sociodemográfico y caracterización de las empresas de la mujer emprendedora en España. Fortalezas y debilidades
Authors: Olaz Capitán Ángel José , Ortiz García Pilar
Published: March 2016

En las últimas décadas la investigación sobre el emprendimiento está adquiriendo un importante protagonismo como resultado de los cambios experimentados en esta forma de actividad empresarial. La presencia de la mujer en este ámbito de actuación es cada vez más evidente como reacción ante las mayores dificultades de acceso al empleo en un contexto de crisis y no tanto a la visión romántica de una «idea luminosa» que se materializa por generación espontánea. En este contexto el impulso a la iniciativa emprendedora que las mujeres están desarrollando adquiere una especial singularidad.

Tomando como principal fuente de referencia la explotación de los datos del proyecto GEM 2012 —última actualización disponible—, esta comunicación profundizará en el estudio del perfil sociodemográfico de la mujer emprendedora en España en el intento por caracterizar las singularidades de las empresas en las que éstas desarrollan su actividad.

La comparativa por géneros presenta importantes elementos de análisis atendiendo a variables tales como: expectativas de crecimiento del empleo, razones de abandono de la empresa, motivaciones de emprendimiento por necesidad, orientación internacional de la empresa y otros tantos elementos que se estudiarán.

A través de estas primeras conclusiones, el proposito de esta comunicación es reflexionar sobre las características que hacen de la mujer una potencial emprendedora y, por consiguiente, anticipar medidas que contribuyan a su mejor visibilización y puesta en valor como elemento clave en el desarrollo laboral, social y económico de nuestra sociedad.
Discriminación laboral por razón de género
Authors: Ordóñez Yraolagoitia Leyre
Published: March 2016

La discriminación en el trabajo por razón de sexo, es algo que, desgraciadamente, todos conocemos. Es innegable que este fenómeno se sigue produciendo, tanto en nuestro país como en nuestra comunidad autónoma, pero aunque conozcamos el problema que esto supone, ¿nos paramos a cambiarlo? Es una actitud que mucha gente tiene arraigada y que probablemente le salga de una manera inconsciente, ya que la discriminación en el trabajo es la última pieza de otra serie de actitudes machistas. Hay diferentes maneras de discriminación, y aquí se podrán observar cuáles son y de qué manera afectan a las mujeres de nuestro entorno.

Por último, los datos también muestran que esta es una situación que conviene cambiar tanto a mujeres como a hombres. Aunque esta discriminación hacia la mujer sea real, los hombres también están sufriendo un cierto castigo por tantos años de desigualdad, como por ejemplo en la interpretación de las leyes, el sentimiento de culpa que pueda tener uno consigo mismo… Por lo tanto, es una realidad y un problema con muchos matices, pero que hay que empezar a solucionar desde la raíz.
Las lanzaderas de empleo y emprendimiento, instrumentos innovadores contra el desempleo: aspectos jurídicos y de política laboral
Authors: Cárcar Benito Jesús Esteban
Published: March 2016

Las lanzaderas de empleo y emprendimiento suponen un cambio de enfoque en las políticas de inserción laboral desarrolladas hasta el momento. Representan una nueva filosofía en la intervención social del desempleo, llamando al cambio y a la acción, al trabajo en equipo comprometido y proactivo para que las personas desempleadas recobren la ilusión y descubran todas las competencias y habilidades que tienen para encontrar trabajo por cuenta ajena o para desarrollar su proyecto empresarial propio La nueva economía colaborativa y las lanzaderas de empleo, en particular, plantean cuestiones, a mi juicio, en dos ámbitos de la normativa laboral. Por un lado, el problema de la calificación de la relación de las lanzaderas con sus pares, aunque estas funcionen generalmente como intermediarios que instrumentan sus relaciones con sus usuarios como un acuerdo privado sin carácter laboral. En ocasiones, puede darse cierto grado de dirección y control por parte de los promotores, lo que abre la puerta a estimar que exista una relación con cierto nivel de dependencia y dirección. El segundo interrogante a abordar es si la prestación de servicios coadyuvantes por particulares no es realizada desde una estructura de negocio como la de una empresa o, directamente por la propia administración, habrá que categorizarla debidamente. Esta es una cuestión, a tener en cuenta, dado el carácter tuitivo de la normativa laboral. Este análisis intenta dar un itinerario sobre las cuestiones jurídicas, económicas y de intervención laboral, política laboral, para el empleo.
Becas y prácticas no laborales como vía de inserción en el mercado laboral: ¿exclusión social?
Authors: Hernando Espada David
Published: March 2016

El recurso a las becas y prácticas no laborales parece que se ha convertido en el principal mecanismo de inserción en el mercado de trabajo que tienen los jóvenes. En este sentido, el Consejo de la Unión Europea en su Recomendación, de 10 de marzo de 2014, sobre un marco de calidad para los períodos de prácticas (traineeship) destaca la importancia de los mismos, ya que facilitan la transición del sistema educativo al mercado de trabajo. El presente trabajo tiene por objeto estudiar tales figuras, con la finalidad de determinar si este colectivo cuenta con la suficiente protección social o, si por el contrario, se está ante un colectivo caracterizado por la precariedad laboral. Se analizará, por un lado, las prácticas académicas y las prácticas no laborales, y, por otro lado, se estudia el sector de los becarios de investigación.
Esquema de una teoría del agente centrada en la creatividad
Authors: Cristiano Javier Luis
Published: March 2016

Las diferentes tradiciones teóricas de la sociología han reconocido que la inventiva, la imaginación y la creatividad son rasgos inherentes a la acción humana. Sin embargo, han privilegiado en sus teorizaciones otros aspectos de la acción, como la racionalidad, el seguimiento de normas sociales, la espontaneidad de las prácticas cotidianas o las habilidades lingüísticas y comunicativas. La intención de este artículo es proponer un esquema amplio y flexible para el desarrollo de una concepción del agente centrada en la creatividad, cuyo interés para las ciencias sociales viene dado por el vínculo, intuitivamente obvio, pero extremadamente complejo, entre creatividad y emergencia de nuevas identidades y nuevas formas de organización social. El esquema parte de una concepción del agente como estratificación de niveles de consciencia y autoconocimiento, diferenciando un plano pulsional de la creatividad, un plano prereflexivo-práctico y un plano discursivo. En cada uno se identifican mecanismos específicos de la creatividad de la acción, para esbozar luego algunas hipótesis de articulación entre los tres y algunas líneas de investigación que podrían, a futuro, apuntalar la propuesta.
An investigation of the motivation, collaboration and satisfaction levels related to teamwork of Turkish football referees
Authors: Satman Mehmet Cem
Published: March 2016

During the past 10 to 15 years refereeing elite football matches has become much more demanding in terms of the physical and mental preparation referees have to undertake. This is because the game is now faster and the players fitter than ever before. So much so that referees have come to rely more and more on the other officials to ensure correct decisions. Thus, they have become more like a team leader rather than the sole arbiter they were for so long; cooperation is now essential for successful football refereeing. This study examines the attitudes of football referees towards teamwork, their levels of motivation and their job satisfaction according to their level of refereeing, age and experience. 285 referees and assistant referees, all of whom referee in professional leagues, took part in this study. From the results it was concluded that younger referees are likely to adopt a more 'managed', solo approach while older referees are more likely to adopt a more 'collaborative' approach. These findings provide a baseline for developing young referees' perception of and attitude towards teamwork and highlight the need for improvement.
Reshaping the Culture: Improving and Integrating Social Capital to Affirm Land Use Control A Case of Bali in Democratic Decentralization Era
Authors: Pandi Putra I Wayan Indrabayu , Pratama Reba Anindyajati
Published: March 2016

One of the important issues emergences in the context of spatial planning is about community participation. In Indonesia, this issue widely spread in line with development of decentralization system and low level of trust to government. In Bali, problem in land management became crucial issue in regard with rocket development of tourism sector. Triangle conflicts among Indigenous Village, State Government and investor became a common things today. Social capital as an instrument of control is absolutely necessary to monitor the implementation of spatial planning. In regard with endogenous concept in contemporary urban planning, and considering the weakness and limitations of current land use control tools this paper discus and propose an idea to enforce the uses of social capital to support and affirm land use control. This paper began with elaboration of the challenges and conflict of land management in Bali, followed by analysis weakness and limitations of existing regulations and finally ends up with an idea to enforce the function of social capital through institutional reform. Based on the discussion, integrating social capital can be done through accommodating the value into concept of spatial planning and involving indigenous village as institution control for the implementation of spatial plan.

Une lecture chinoise d’Arnold Toynbee: Zhang Junmai et le problème de la continuité historique de la culture chinoise
Authors: Ciaudo Joseph
Published: March 2016

The historical continuity of Chinese culture from the early dynasties to modern times is a common topic in Chinese “culturalist discourses”. The intellectuals who wanted to defend the legitimacy of a Chinese culture compatible with modernity almost never put it into question. Zhang Junmai (1887–1969), in a short book entitled the Chinese culture of tomorrow (1936) had the same attitude toward the problem. He spoke about the ‘four thousand years of Chinese civilization’. However, taking this stand is not without raising issues, for Zhang begins his text by building his theory of cultures upon many ideas defended by Arnold Toynbee, in his major work A study of History (1931). As a matter of fact, Toynbee used to divide the history of China into two periods: the Sinic society, and the Far Eastern society. In introducing Toynbee’s studies in China, did Zhang purposely change important aspects of the Study or was he simply lost in translation? Incidentally, was quoting Toynbee simply instrumental in Zhang’s discourse? These are the main questions this research note aims at tackling.
Component Sharing Across Product Categories Leads to Functional Diversification: Evidence from the Japanese Digital Audio-Visual Products Market
Authors: Miura Sayako
Published: March 2016

This study focuses on component sharing across product categories, in contrast to earlier studies which examined component sharing within a specific category. Cross-category component sharing creates the potential for diversified product functionality by transferring new knowledge between categories, in addition to streamlining development, as previously noted. We collected evidence for this proposal from the Japanese digital audio-visual products market in the late 2000s. Panasonic not only shared software modules and the design of large scale integration (LSI) among products in the same category, but also shared them among televisions and DVD recorders. Its competitors, Sony and Sharp, used shared software and the design of LSI only within a product category. Panasonic products were functionally more advanced than those of Sony and Sharp. This study revealed two types of functionality diversification – simple functional diversification and linked operations.
The pathophysiological basis of bone tissue alterations associated with eating disorders
Authors: Greco Emanuela A. , Lenzi Andrea , Migliaccio Silvia
Published: March 2016

Anorexia nervosa (AN) and obesity are two major eating disorders present nowadays in Western countries. They are both characterized by striking body composition variations and hormonal alterations, which impact on skeletal metabolism, inducing bone tissue modifications and, thus, often cause an increased risk for fractures. AN and obesity are characterized by a severe reduction in fat mass and a high expression of it, respectively, and in both conditions hormones secreted or modulated by body fat content are important determinants of low bone density, impaired bone structure and reduced bone strength. In addition, in both AN and obesity, increased marrow adiposity, which correlates with low bone density, has been observed. This review will discuss the pathophysiological basis of bone alterations associated with AN and obesity, conditions of extreme energy deficiency and excess, respectively.

People from Brač, emigrant press in Chile and newspaper Domovina - from the late 19th century to the beginning of World War I
Authors: Krpan Smiljanac Marina
Published: March 2016

The topic of this paper is to set the starting point for studying the history of Croatian emigrant journalism in Chile from the earliest period of the settlement of Croats until the end of 1914, including the dominant population group from Brač. It was primarily the economic migration, which was caused by economic changes in the society in general, and economic changes as a consequence of political movements. The immigrants had the need for organizing themselves in various societies in the new country, and they also had the awareness of their own nationality and language. The unusually rapid assimilation (already in the first generation) calls into question the viability and the need to preserve heritage. Immigrant newspapers edited and run by Brač emigrant journalists, most notably Ivan Krstulović and Luka Bonačić, with the newspaper Domovina from Punta Arenas, were in the current literature perceived almost exclusively in terms of political orientation and struggle. The aim of this paper is to show that the local newspaper Domovina reflected and recorded phenomena and events significant for the daily life of the community with the intention of preservation its identity from the perspective of social history, especially in the section From the town and surrounding areas.
COPO MEIO CHEIO OU COPO MEIO VAZIO? ESTÁGIO PÓS-DOUTORAL, FACE EXPOSTA, REVISÃO CRÍTICA E AGENDA DE PESQUISA
Authors: Castro Pedro Marcos Roma de , Porto Geciane Silveira
Published: March 2016

RESUMO: Analisaram-se publicações sobre o tema da capacitação pós-doutoral nas bases Web of Science, Proquest, Scielo e Portal de Periódicos CAPES. De acordo com a revisão da literatura, o Brasil seria o possível agente de fronteira nesse campo investigativo. Apesar das amostras com organizações suniversitárias diversificadas, encontraram-se resultados similares entre elas, sendo que a variável tempo de carreira docente emerge como sendo o principal fator explicativo da transferência pós-doutoral positiva sobre a produção científica. Nesta revisão observa-se que, quanto ao marco teórico, todos os estudos convergiram para enxergar o fenômeno pós-doutoral à luz da Gestão do Conhecimento, e nesta revisão crítica, questionam-se os aspectos cruciais do ponto de vista teórico e metodológico para estudo do fenômeno pós-doutoral que devem ser objeto de reflexão visando a melhorias, mas há também uma visão otimista e promissora acerca desse campo de investigação, por ser um campo de exploração em pesquisa ainda escasso e com imenso potencial de desenvolvimento.
Discurso e gozo: Psicanálise e sociedade
Authors: Pisetta Maria Angélica Augusto de Mello
Published: March 2016

RESUMO As mudanças no laço social contemporâneo propõem uma grande oportunidade de repensar o lugar e os fundamentos da psicanálise. Com uma multiplicidade sintomática, os fenômenos relativos ao corpo se apresentam fomentando a ampliação das discussões sobre o tema do gozo, articulado ao discurso. Abordaremos aqui esta questão recorrendo a uma breve contextualização histórica dos modos de contemplação do corpo, até a atualidade, quando podemos perceber mudanças substanciais no gozo relativo ao corpo. Exploraremos ainda as conceituações freudianas e lacanianas procurando debater as mudanças necessárias que a psicanálise é convocada a fazer ante as mutações do laço social.
Pesquisa psicanalítica sobre os fenômenos psicossomáticos
Authors: Dimitriadis Yorgos
Published: March 2016

RESUMO Lacan abordou os fenômenos psicossomáticos através do conceito de significante congelado. Os autores que se inspiraram nele fizeram uso desse conceito de diversas maneiras. Existem diferenças entre esses autores quanto à possibilidade de uma determinação concreta de tais significantes congelados (holófrases) que seriam suscetíveis de serem enfatizados pelo analista. Segundo alguns desses autores, o enfatizar tais significantes poderia colocar fim aos fenômenos psicossomáticos. Outros autores lacanianos contestam o valor clínico desse tipo de intervenção. O autor questiona também o parentesco entre os fenômenos psicossomáticos e outros fenômenos clínicos como a alucinação, a emoção, o humor e a passagem ao ato.

Published: March 2016

On October 9, 2015, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration expanded the nivolumab metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) indication to include patients with nonsquamous NSCLC after a 3.25-month review timeline. Approval was based on demonstration of an improvement in overall survival (OS) in an international, multicenter, open-label, randomized trial comparing nivolumab to docetaxel in patients with metastatic nonsquamous NSCLC with progression on or after platinum-based chemotherapy. The CheckMate 057 trial enrolled 582 patients who were randomized (1:1) to receive nivolumab or docetaxel. Nivolumab demonstrated improved OS compared with docetaxel at the prespecified interim analysis with a hazard ratio (HR) of 0.73 (p = .0015), and a median OS of 12.2 months (95% CI: 9.7–15.0 months) in patients treated with nivolumab compared with 9.4 months (95% CI: 8.0–10.7 months) in patients treated with docetaxel. A statistically significant improvement in objective response rate (ORR) was also observed, with an ORR of 19% (95% CI: 15%–24%) in the nivolumab arm and 12% (95% CI: 9%–17%) in the docetaxel arm. The median duration of response was 17 months in the nivolumab arm and 6 months in the docetaxel arm. Progression-free survival was not statistically different between arms. A prespecified retrospective subgroup analysis suggested that patients with programmed cell death ligand 1-negative tumors treated with nivolumab had similar OS to those treated with docetaxel. The toxicity profile of nivolumab was consistent with the known immune-mediated adverse event profile except for 1 case of grade 5 limbic encephalitis, which led to a postmarketing requirement study to better characterize immune-mediated encephalitis.
Reversible nanorouter using QCA for nanocommunication

Published: March 2016

In reversible nanocomputing, an emerging area of research is quantum dot cellular automata (QCA)-based design of cost-effective reversible nanocircuits. In a digital nanocommunication system, the router is the heart of data transmission. At nanoscale, for data communication the device density and energy dissipation of the circuit are key issues. A reversible circuit exhibits low energy dissipation or ideally no energy dissipation. This paper presents the design of a Fredkin gate- and a BJN gate-based design of reversible 4:1 multiplexer and 1:4 demultiplexer based on QCA with quantum costs of 15 and 30 respectively and garbage output of six and ten respectively. The proposed reversible multiplexer and demultiplexer are used to achieve a reversible nanorouter in QCA for the first time, with a quantum cost of 40 and garbage output of 16. The proposed reversible nanorouter could be used to achieve a nanocommunication system in the near future at the nanoscale low energy level. A QCA device is used to implement the proposed reversible circuits, to achieve a low-energy nanoscale circuit. The comparison of simulation consequences of proposed circuits with theoretical knowledge established the functional efficiency of the circuit.
Contribuições da pesquisa-ação no trabalho cotidiano: a prática de profissionais da educação em um centro de atendimento inclusivo

Este trabalho faz parte de uma pesquisa em andamento, intitulada “Formação continuada de professores: a pesquisa-ação colaborativa em contextos de práticas educativas inclusivas (2ª. Fase)”, financiada pelo Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq). Para este momento, optamos pela pesquisa etnográfica, com o intuito de explorar uma das etapas do processo de vivência da pesquisa-ação. Trata-se do momento de observação das ações educativas conduzidas pelos profissionais no cotidiano do trabalho em um Centro de Atendimento Educacional Especializado, vinculado à rede municipal de ensino. Para além das observações, trabalhamos com registros da reunião de discussão e análise das observações produzidas, analisando como os profissionais do centro veem suas práticas no cotidiano do trabalho e como se repensam a partir desse processo. Consideramos os estudos de Silva e Nörnberg (2013), Franco (2012) e Tardif (2000) para construir o apoio teórico. Nesta etapa da pesquisa foi possível evidenciar quanto o refletir sobre o que se faz e como se faz na prática educativa cotidiana contribui para desvelar, no trabalho em equipe, tanto as fragilidades quanto os acertos do grupo de profissionais. Tal dinâmica permitiu um processo de sensibilização aos problemas, mobilizando para a construção de soluções. De outro modo, a reflexão sobre a prática desestabiliza e provoca desconfortos, pois acaba por impulsionar a revisão de aspectos já consolidados, como por exemplo, a postura profissional.
David Hare’s Stuff Happens a Dramatic Journey of American War on Iraq

Published: March 2016

The war launched by America and its allies against the country of Iraq on 2003 was a debatable and notorious war for the public opinion was shocked with the realization that the reasons for launching the war under the title ‘Iraq’s Mass Destruction Weapons’ were false. The tragic consequences of this war led many writers around the world to question the policy of the United States and its manipulation of facts to justify their narratives. The present study examines the American policy of invading Iraq in David Hare’sStuff Happens. It investigates Hare’s technique of combining documentary realism with imaginative reconstruction of the arguments to dramatize the American Invasion of Iraq.Stuff Happensis a historical and political play written as a verbatim theatre. It depicts the backroom deals and political maneuvers of the Bush administration in justifying their campaign against the ‘Axis of Evil’ culminated by the war against Iraq. The verbatim theatre is the best way of showing the gap between ‘what is said and what is seen to be done’. Scenes of direct speeches by real characters are part of this theatre dramatized to present a new reading of a historical event. In addition, characterization is used by Hare’s to chronicle the American war on Iraq. The study follows a postcolonial framework. The study concludes that Hare’sStuff Happenssucceeded in shaking the public opinion with the truth that Bush’s administration has manipulated facts in order to achieve their colonial and imperial interests in Iraq, which led to more destruction and violence in this country.

Authors: Irfan Syuhudi Muhammad
Published: March 2016

This article aims to describe Islamic religious thought of Muslim student at Khairun
University in Ternate and the dynamic of religious movement organizations on  campus. Informants of this study were selected using purposive method including activists of  Islamic organizations, students, and lecturers of the university. Data were collected using interviews, observation, and documentation, and searching data related to social context of the study from the internet. Findings of the research shows that the type of religious understanding and nationality of Muslim students after the reformation era at Khairun University began experiencing a shift since the presence of trans-national organizations, such as the Indonesian Muslim Student Action Union (KAMMI), Campus Propagation Institute (LDK), Hizbut Tahrir (HT), and Wahdah Islamiyah (WI). Those organizations adopt fundamentalists thought who want purification of Islam, and anti-tradition. Nationality thought adopted by these organizations is a country that imposes Islamic law and Establishes a state of Khilafah (HT). Nevertheless, most students at the Khairun University embrace cultural Islam, following the footsteps of their parents and Ternate society in general.
