Authors: Daza Arana Jorge Enrique , Lozada Ramos Heiler , Patricia Sánchez Diana
Published: November 2019

Introducción: el artículo reporta un caso clínico de intento suicida de un paciente con síndrome intermedio a causa de intoxicación por organofosforados. Para ello se analizó la historia clínica, los exámenes complementarios y el estudio electromiográfico, y se realizó revisión no sistemática de la literatura. Presentación del caso: se describe un caso diagnosticado en la unidad de cuidado intensivo, el cual presentó trastornos neuromotores, requerimiento de soporte ventilatorio con destete difícil y extubación fallida, así como el tratamiento médico y fisioterapéutico instaurado. Dentro del manejo de la intoxicación por organofosforados se incluye la descontaminación del tóxico, administración de atropina y pralidoxima, diagnóstico oportuno del síndrome intermedio y la prescripción de ejercicio terapéutico. El paciente recibió manejo interdisciplinario, logrando liberación de su condición crítica, pero con persistencia de debilidad muscular proximal; sin embargo, con el ejercicio alcanzó recuperación funcional de sus actividades básicas cotidianas. Conclusión: el panorama mundial de las intoxicaciones por sustancias químicas muestra que son causa de morbilidad y discapacidad importante. Los organofosforados son los plaguicidas más frecuentemente involucrados. Los síntomas y signos clínicos de este tipo de intoxicaciones se clasifican en manifestaciones colinérgicas, el síndrome intermedio y la neuropatía retardada.

Worst-Case Examples for Lasserre’s Measure–Based Hierarchy for Polynomial Optimization on the Hypercube
Authors: de Klerk Etienne , Laurent Monique
Published: November 2019

We study the convergence rate of a hierarchy of upper bounds for polynomial optimization problems, proposed by Lasserre, and a related hierarchy by de Klerk, Hess, and Laurent. For polynomial optimization over the hypercube, we show a refined convergence analysis for the first hierarchy. We also show lower bounds on the convergence rate for both hierarchies on a class of examples. These lower bounds match the upper bounds and thus establish the true rate of convergence on these examples. Interestingly, these convergence rates are determined by the distribution of extremal zeroes of certain families of orthogonal polynomials.
‘Independence 2.0’: Digital activism, social media and the Catalan independence movement
Authors: Anderson Paul
Published: November 2019

This article examines the role and use of social media in the ongoing movement for Catalan independence by focusing on two pro-independence civil society organizations, Feministes per la Independència (FxI) and Òmnium Cultural (OC). Drawing upon elite interview data with representatives from both organizations and Catalan parliamentarians, it posits that social media platforms serve as crucial vehicles for these civil society organizations, particularly in terms of empowerment, mobilization, organization, participation and resistance. The increasing salience of digital activism in Catalonia is such that social media platforms have become fundamental pillars of the independence movement, helping to overcome state-imposed institutional obstacles as well as internationalize the issue across transnational networks. The analysis, however, also reveals a darker side to engagement with social media including the proliferation of biased narratives, dissemination of misinformation and trolling. On the basis of these reflections, the article concludes that while engagement with social media entails risks, hitherto such platforms have proved to be highly effective and will continue to be pivotal in promoting and generating support for the independence cause.
The coverage of the international press in framing the Catalan sovereignty process: Analysis of ten leading EU and US newspapers 2010–17
Authors: Pont-Sorribes Carles , Perales-García Cristina , Mauri-Rios Marcel , Tulloch Christopher D.
Published: November 2019

The Catalan sovereignty process has been a topic of interest in the mass media worldwide in recent years. We analysed nearly 900 stories, published between 10 June 2010 and 4 October 2017 by the main newspapers of France, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom and the United States, for content in terms of genres, frames and journalistic sources. We also conducted in-depth interviews with the newspaper foreign correspondents to Spain. A main conclusion is that all the newspapers framed the sovereignty process as a conflict between the Spanish and Catalan governments, in which the EU, according to the newspapers analysed, should mediate.
Memes as an ideological tool: The stance of the Spanish online newspapers regarding the Catalan Referendum and Catalan Regional Elections 2017
Authors: Algaba Cristina , Bellido-Pérez Elena
Published: November 2019

The present article analyses the use of digital memes by the main Spanish newspapers taking the Catalan Referendum 1 October 2017 and the Catalan Regional Elections 21 December 2017 as a case study. Since these events took place, Spain is living a new wave of polarization, where the country is divided between those who support the Catalan goal of independence and those who protest against it. Therefore, Spanish Internet users have fervently positioned themselves for or against the Catalan pro-independence discourse, using humour as a weapon and, consequently, memes as the medium. These memes that have arisen can be labelled as pieces of anti-propagandistic critical discourse (ACD). Through a mixed quantitative-qualitative methodology, we propose to identify the features of the ACD in the memes about the Catalan independence that have been collected in the online edition of the main Spanish newspapers. In this way, our main goal is to point out memes as a powerful ideological tool for citizens and hence for the general media.
Image-sharing and iconicity on social media during the Catalan conflict (2017)
Authors: San Cornelio Gemma , Gómez Cruz Edgar
Published: November 2019

The aim of this article is to analyse the role that images have played in the Catalan conflict, using the pictures produced in the days surrounding the independence referendum in Barcelona as a case study. As part of an ongoing research agenda on the role of images in social media, our goal is to develop a framework for the analysis of visual practices on social media in the course of creating and re-signifying images. The pictures analysed were taken in the Ramon Llull Primary School during the days of 1 October 2017 and 3 October 2017.
An algorithm for Catalonia
Authors: Innerarity Daniel
Published: November 2019

It is still true that defining problems is half the way to finding a solution. In this article I aim to explain how I see the Catalan conflict and, in so doing, do my best not to turn my preferences into prejudices and try to strike a balance between the descriptions of reality that seem to ignore the tensions and the descriptions that excessively dramatize the differences. In a context where political agents are more interested in proving the strength of their character and their convictions than in getting results and signing agreements, I defend that there is a procedure for reaching a solution that should respect three principles: representation, revisability and indeterminacy.
Dispositivos de enunciación del film-ensayo español contemporáneo: Evolución de la subjetividad ensayística y su pensamiento en acto
Authors: Monterrubio Lourdes
Published: November 2019

El presente artículo analiza los dispositivos de enunciación del film-ensayo español contemporáneo. Para ello, realizamos un itinerario por sus obras más significativas, a partir de la evolución de los dispositivos de enunciación textuales y sus diferentes funciones: voz off, voz in, subtítulos, intertítulos, y la desaparición del texto. Este recorrido nos permite analizar la relación entre estos dispositivos y: las formas intermediales (la carta, el diario, el auotorretrato, etc.); los materiales audiovisuales (imágenes propias, found footage, animación, fotografía, pintura, etc.); los elementos retóricos utilizados (yuxtaposición, pantalla en negro, fundido, sobreimpresión, ralentización, pantalla dividida, etc.). Se evidencia entonces cómo el film-ensayo español contemporáneo genera una progresiva deconstrucción de la subjetividad ensayística mediante procedimientos asociados a los dispositivos de enunciación analizados – ficcionalización, sustracción, desautomatización, objetivación, desintensificación, descentramiento y borrado – que oscilan entre los polos de la reflexión racional y la emocional.
Interview with Viviana García-Besné
Authors: Gunckel Colin
Published: November 2019

In this interview, filmmaker and archivist Viviana García-Besné discusses her work as the founder of the Permanencia Voluntaria archive and the Baticine microcinema in Tepoztlán, Mexico. As the descendent of a family involved in various areas of the Mexican film industry since the early twentieth century, García-Besné has become an advocate for Mexican popular cinema that has long been dismissed by critics and institutions adopting class-based conceptions of cultural value and ‘quality’ cinema. Accordingly, the central mission of Permanencia Voluntaria includes both restoring films produced by her family and advocating for increased appreciation and institutional support for popular cinema and the audiences who enjoy it.
A Földközi-tengeri Szövetséges Légierő szegedi célpontjainak levegőből történt felderítése a II. világháborúban
Authors: Oláh András Pál
Published: November 2019

During World War 2 Szeged served as the key cultural, economic, military and trade centre of the Southern Great Plain in Hungary, also being an important water transport and railway junction. No wonder that Allied intelligence services took notice of the town early on, starting to collect reconnaissance information about Szeged’s most important establishments and objects in order to prepare for their destruction. In my study I dissect the town’s Second World War military geography, and look into how strategic targets in Szeged were located.
Területi és társadalmi változások a magyarországi iparvárosokban 1990-2018 között
Authors: Laki Ildikó
Published: November 2019

In my study I intend to give a detailed analysis of social transformations of the past 27 years in Hungarian industrial towns (former ‘socialist’ towns). The array of urban functions and activities has undergone a significant modification in the so-called traditional industrial towns (11), which resulted not merely in spatial and economic structural changes but furthermore in notable social ones as well. In the case of several towns social realignments (Tatabánya, Várpalota, Oroszlány), population loss (Dunaújváros, Salgótarján), as well as the emergence of new social groups in consequence of new activities undertaken (Százhalombatta, Ajka, Várpalota) occurred. Simultaneously local community initiatives commenced with the goal of finding viable roles for these towns and their residents; for some groups within the towns, while for others temporarily or permanently through relocation to other settlements. Thus the current survey primarily concerns itself with those social issues which have initiated and brought novel changes and developments in the towns under consideration in their local economies and at various levels of their communities.
Trópusi veszélyek Indiában a 19. századi magyar utazási útleírásokban
Authors: Gergely Aletta
Published: November 2019

This study investigates the tropical dangers in India in the late 19th and early 20th century through the Hungarian travel literature. The first part of the study examines the evolution of public health and the beginnings of the tropical medicine in India. The second part includes questions about madness and normal behaviour and I wrote about the lunatic asylum as well. The next section is about epidemic diseases like leprosy, malaria, cholera and plague. Tivadar Duka, M. D. and Ferenc Gáspár M. D. published articles about Colonial epidemics and public health. In order to control epidemics, special officers, committees, and commissioners were appointed by the British. Snake attacks also took their victims, so the British Government had to find a solution for the problem. In the last chapter I wrote about the use of psychoactive substances in India, like opium or cannabis.
Nagy Britannia és Ausztrália közös atomprogramja 1945-1960
Authors: Kornéli Beáta
Published: November 2019

Australia was determined to obtain a nuclear weapon after the Second World War. The most obvious solution seemed to collaborate with Britain doing nuclear research in the so-called “joint project”. The British defence planners had been aware of the fact that Great Britain would not survive a forthcoming nuclear attack at the dawn of the cold war and thus, they were in need of their own nuclear weapon. When the MacMahon Act came into force the Government of United States of America rejected the British to continue the joint research in the Manhattan Project and they wanted to retain their sole atom monopoly. They provided the British neither with raw material nor with nuclear technology, furthermore, they were not allowed to participate in the test blasts. Hence, the role of Australia was revalued by the British Government. Several productive intitiatives such as the establishment of the Australian National University, launching the Snowy Mountains project, deployment of the Royal Australian Air Force in Southeast Asia coincided with the joint project. The culmination of the Australian–British cooperation was the atomic blast in 1952 and the decision of the British to contribute to the construction of an Australian nuclear reactor. Nevertheless, the nuclear achievements of the Soviet Union put an end to the so far successful joint project.
MATHEMATICAL MODELLING OF CLINKER PRODUCTION WITH SERIAL FLOW PREHEATER CYCLONES AND PRECALCINER
Authors: Kolip Ahmed
Published: November 2019

A simple mathematical model is presented for clinker production via a pyroprocessing unit consisting of serial flow preheater cyclone stages, a precalciner, a rotary kiln and a clinker cooler. The model equations are based on steady state material and energy balances for solid and gas phases around each piece of equipment. The contribution of fuel ash to raw meal, recarbonation reactions in the preheater section and temperature dependence of specific heats are included in this model. A computer program has been developed to solve the model equations via an iterative procedure, yielding raw meal, stack gas, stack dust and temperature profiles and specific fuel consumption for a given set of input variables, thus enabling the user to investigate the impact of any design or process variable on the system performance. In this study the effects of fuel type and number of preheater stages on specific fuel consumption are investigated. The results indicate that in certain cases, by changing the fuel type, and by adjusting the degree of calcination in the precalciner when there is a fuel mix, energy savings equivalent to addition of an extra preheater stage may be possible.
AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON PERFORMANCE OF SHAPE MEMORY ALLOY SUSPENSION PENDULUM DAMPING SYSTEM
Authors: Xiong Ergang , Wang Sheliang , Fan Tuanjie , Liu Linbo , Zu Kun , Xi Yanghong
Published: November 2019

A systematic study is conducted on variation regularities for such properties of SMA wires with the diameter of wires, strain amplitude and loading cycles as the stress-strain curve, characteristic stresses, energy dissipation capacity, equivalent damping ratio. The results show: The diameter increase of SMA wires can degrade the mechanical properties of SMA wires; SMA wires can exhibit a good and stable hysteretic performance when the strain amplitude is 6% and the loading cycle is 15. Utilizing the superelasticity of SMA and combining the operating principle of the tuned mass damper, a new kind of SMA suspension pendulum damping system, which is easy to disassemble, was designed and fabricated with the trained SMA wires. Corresponding experiments were conducted to analyse the natural frequency of the damping system, phase relations between the mass vibrators and the controlled structure, variation regularity of the equivalent damping force with the mass vibrators and length of pendulum rod. The results indicate that phase relations between the mass vibrators and the controlled structure can desirably fall within 150°~180° when this damping system subjected to the sine waves and real earthquake waves. Meanwhile, the equivalent damping force increases significantly with the amplitude of external loads. In conclusion, this kind of damping system can provide a stable and efficient damping force and be simply applied to structural vibration control, thus to protect structures free from strong dynamic disasters.

Closed vortex lines in fluid and gas
Authors: Sizykh Grigory Borisovich
Published: November 2019

Исследуется непрерывное течение жидкости и газа с замкнутыми вихревыми трубками. Рассмотрена циркуляция вдоль вихревой линии отношения плотности равнодействующей всех сил (приложенных к жидкости или газу) к плотности жидкости или газа. Она совпадает с циркуляцией по той же вихревой линии частной производной вектора скорости по времени и поэтому для стационарных течений равна нулю на любой замкнутой вихревой линии.
Для нестационарных течений рассмотрены вихревые трубки, которые остаются замкнутыми по крайней мере в течение некоторого интервала времени. Обнаружена неизвестная ранее закономерность, состоящая в том, что в каждый фиксированный момент времени такая циркуляция одинакова для всех замкнутых вихревых линий, составляющих вихревую трубку. Указанная закономерность верна для течений сжимаемых и несжимаемых, вязких (различных реологий) и невязких жидкостей в поле потенциальных и непотенциальных внешних массовых сил. Поскольку эта закономерность не заложена в современные численные алгоритмы, она может использоваться для верификации численных расчетов нестационарных течений с замкнутыми вихревыми трубками путем проверки равенства циркуляций на разных замкнутых вихревых линиях (в одной трубке).
Выражение для плотности распределения равнодействующей всех сил, приложенных к жидкости или газу, может содержать производные высших порядков. В то же время выражение для частной производной вектора скорости по времени и выражение для вектора завихренности, который необходим для построения вихревой линии, содержат только первые производные, что позволяет использовать обнаруженную закономерность для верификации расчетов, проведенных методами не только высокого, но и низкого порядков.

Das Projekt PartInno (Partizipation und Innovationsphasen: Funktionale Gewinne durch Öffentlichkeitsbeteiligung in differenten Phasen der Innovationsentwicklung) hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt, die Nutzung partizipativer Verfahren zur Öffentlichkeitseinbindung entlang typischer Innovationsphasen empirisch zu untersuchen. So sollen die Voraussetzungen der Anwendbarkeit von Öffentlichkeitseinbindung sowie die Vielfalt möglicher „Partizipationsgewinne“ systematisch exploriert und in einem konzeptionellen Modell generalisiert werden. Darüber hinaus wird ein „Entscheidungskompass“ entwickelt. Dieser gibt Auskunft darüber, welche „Partizipationsgewinne“ – etwa die Erweiterung der Wissens- oder Wertebasis von Entscheidungen oder technischen Anwendungen – in welchen Phasen sinnvollerweise zu erschließen sind (und welche nicht).
Perspektiven der Forschungsförderung für Postwachstum
Authors: Ober Steffi
Published: November 2019

Die deutsche Wissenschafts- und Forschungslandschaft benötigt neue Governance-Strukturen, um das gesellschaftliche Innovationspotenzial für eine zukunftsfähige Transformation einzubinden und zu nutzen. Die Verengung auf ökonomisches Wachstum und technologische Ansätze in der nationalen wie europäischen Forschungs- und Innovationspolitik ist unzureichend, um den großen Herausforderungen wie Klimawandel, sozialer Ungleichheit und Ressourcenübernutzung zu begegnen. Ein systemischer Ansatz von Innovation und Forschung bezieht kulturellen Wandel und soziale Innovation mit ein. Eine Forschungspolitik, die einen deliberativen und iterativen Diskurs zwischen zivilgesellschaftlichen Akteuren, Wirtschaft und Wissenschaft fördert, stärkt das notwendige Vertrauen in sektorübergreifende Veränderungsprozesse und nutzt das gesellschaftliche Wissen für die Transformation. Akteure und Strukturen in Wissenschaft und Forschung müssen organisatorisch und inhaltlich neu ausgerichtet werden, um realisierbare Ansätze für die Reduktion von Konsum- und Produktionswachstum zu generieren und umzusetzen.
Postwachstumsökonomie und nachhaltige Entwicklung – Zwei (un)vereinbare Ideen?
Authors: Kopfmüller Jürgen , Nierling Linda , Reichel André , Albiez Marius
Published: November 2019

Insbesondere seit der Wirtschafts- und Finanzkrise von 2008 haben wachstumskritische Initiativen und Publikationen erheblich an Zahl und öffentlicher Sichtbarkeit zugenommen. Sie positionieren sich dabei vielfach kritisch zu den seit rund 30 Jahren laufenden und in verschiedener Hinsicht etablierten Debatten und Politiken einer nachhaltigen Entwicklung. In diesem Beitrag werden die verschiedenen Facetten des Postwachstumsbegriffs skizziert, und es wird anhand der aktuellen Auseinandersetzungen sowie zweier empirischer Beispiele der Frage nachgegangen, wie sich das Postwachstums- und das Nachhaltigkeitsleitbild zueinander verhalten, und wo gemeinsame Potenziale eines Beitrags zur Realisierung der erforderlichen gesellschaftlichen Transformationen liegen können.
Co-Produktion von Wissen in der Stadt
Authors: Marquardt Editha , West Christina
Published: November 2019

Die Wissensgesellschaft bringt neue Herausforderungen und Möglichkeiten für Städte mit sich und verändert Stadtentwicklungsprozesse. Für eine umfassende wissenschaftliche Begleitung dieses Wandels werden neue Formate inter- und transdisziplinärer Forschungsarbeit notwendig, die es ermöglichen, relevante Akteure der Stadtentwicklung einzubinden sowie gleichzeitig nachhaltige Prozesse urbaner Transformation ergebnisoffen in Gang zu setzen. Das Reallabor „Urban Office – Nachhaltige Stadtentwicklung in der Wissensgesellschaft“ erweitert deshalb etablierte, an Beobachtung orientierte Positionen der Forschung. Dies geschieht mit Hilfe von vier konkreten städtebaulichen Vorhaben (Praxisprojekte), anhand derer ForscherInnen verschiedener Disziplinen co-produktiv mit Praxisakteuren Forschungs-, Governance- und Planungsprozesse auf Augenhöhe anstoßen. Von zentraler Bedeutung für ein erfolgreiches Agieren ist die Entwicklung neuer Kommunikations- und Forschungsformate, die die Stadtverwaltung, die Internationale Bauausstellung Heidelberg (IBA), BürgerInnen sowie weitere PraxispartnerInnen in den Prozess des Co-Design integrieren und das „Urban Office“ zum Ort von Reflexion und „Co-Produktion von Wissen“ und somit selbst zum Teil des „Experiments“ werden lassen.

Optimales Energie-Management über verteilte, beschränkte Gradientenverfahren
Authors: Zimmermann Jan , Tatarenko Tatiana , Willert Volker , Adamy Jürgen
Published: November 2019

Dieser Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit verteilten, beschränkten Gradientenverfahren zur Optimierung eines Energie-Management-Problems. Zwei verschiedene Lösungsstrategien werden betrachtet. Zum einen wird ein Entkopplungsansatz analysiert, bei dem über einen Lagrange-Multiplikatoransatz die Beschränkungen in die Zielfunktion aufgenommen werden. Durch ein Gegenbeispiel wird gezeigt, dass dieses Verfahren nicht in jedem Fall auf das globale Optimum des Energie-Management-Problems konvergieren kann. Die zweite Strategie berücksichtigt Nebenbedingungen über einen Straffunktionsansatz und löst das Problem durch die Push-Sum-Konsensus-Dynamik. In der anschließenden Analyse dieses Verfahrens durch Simulation wird auf die Problematik der optimalen Parameterwahl sowie auf das Konvergenzverhalten bei unterschiedlicher Knoten- und Kantenanzahl des Graphen eingegangen.

Diese Koordination wird durch Optimal Power Flow Berechnungen realisiert. In dieser Arbeit wird ein multikriterielles Konzept für eine optimale Planung der HGÜ-Wirkleistungsarbeitspunkte im Hinblick auf die Systemsicherheit erarbeitet. Bestehende Optimierer für OPF-Probleme umfassen deterministische und metaheuristische Ansätze. Darüber hinaus werden mehrere Optimierer beider Klassen in einem Testsystem bewertet, um ihre allgemeine Eignung für das daraus resultierende Optimierungsproblem zu beurteilen.
The Role of Storage and Trade in Food Security
Authors: Kennedy P. Lynn , Schmitz Andrew , van Kooten G. Cornelis
Published: November 2019

This paper examines the role of storage and trade on food security with respect to milled rice in India for the period 1966–2013. Data on food balances, prices, and population obtained from FAOSTAT allow for the observation of the status quo with storage and trade. Then, using a spatial equilibrium framework, the outcomes without storage or trade are simulated. Our results are consistent with the literature with respect to welfare effects. Storage results in net welfare gains to society, although producers gain while consumers lose. Producers receive a welfare gain from net exports while consumers gain from net imports. From a food security perspective, the use of storage has provided benefits to consumers by increasing stability in the market, as seen through decreased standard deviation in both domestic rice prices and per capita availability. The results are mixed with respect to stability from trade.
Relative age and perceptions of soccer specific skills among elite youth players in Norway
Authors: Johansen Bjørn Tore , Østrem Ketil , Saether Stig Arve , Erikstad Martin Kjeøen
Published: November 2019

One common feature among the selected players in talent development programs are the well-known relative age effect (RAE), characterized by a skewed birth distribution among selected players with an over-representation of players born early in the selection year. The aim of the present study was to examine potential differences in soccer-specific skills between players selected for national talent program born in the first half of the year compared to the players born in the second half of the year. A total of 753 elite male U 14 (N = 363) and U 13 players (N = 390) from 16 of 18 soccer regions in Norway participated. The results showed players born early in the selection year considered themselves stronger and faster than late born players. Similar, coaches considered the players born early in the selection year as stronger than players born late in the selection year. Neither the players or coaches considered the early born players as technically, tactically and mentally better. Within a talent development program, we argue that coaches and recruiters should be aware of differences in relative age, and thus prevent that late born players must compensate their physical disadvantages to be allowed into such programs.

Beyond nature vs. nurture in expertise research – comment on Baker & Wattie
Authors: Hambrick David Z. , Burgoyne Alexander P.
Published: November 2019

The field of expertise is mired in a nature vs. nurture debate. Despite what we now know from behavioral genetics research about the underpinnings of human behavior, some expertise theorists continue to deny or downplay the importance of genetic factors (“innate talent”) in expert performance. In this commentary, we argue that this viewpoint is neither defensible nor productive. Our argument is based on two observations. First, there are always limits on human performance, even among individuals who have engaged in long periods of intensive training. Second, grounded in a neurobiological system that has evolved through natural selection, variation across people in phenotypes reflecting these limits will have a genetic component. We comment on directions for future research to advance the field of expertise.
Evaluation of Sexual Function in Breast Cancer Survivors Using Female Sexual Function Index: A Systematic Review
Authors: Masjoudi Marzieh , Keshavarz Zohre , Akbari Mohammad Esmaeil , Lotfi Kashani Farah
Published: November 2019

Objectives: Breast cancer is known as one of the most common women’s neoplasms and the Diagnosis and Treatment of cancer has a great effect on women’s sexual function. Considering the high survival rates of breast cancer, attention to sexual function is very important as a domain in the quality of life. Therefore, this research aimed to review studies on women’s sexual function using the female sexual function index (FSFI). Materials and Methods: To this end, PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and ProQuest databases were considered and Iranian studies on sexual function in breast cancer, which were in Persian or English and used the FSFI tool, were selected in this regard. In addition, these studies were methodologically evaluated and the keywords included "breast cancer" and "sexual function", along with their synonyms. Results: A total of 128 studies were identified out of which 5 cases having the inclusion criteria were selected after reviewing the title, abstract, and quality assessment. The rate of sexual dysfunction in the survivors of breast cancer varied between 52.5% and 100%. Based on the domains of FSFI, the lack of desire and lubrication dysfunction were the most common disorders while satisfaction with sexual life obtained the highest score. Conclusions: Overall, it is necessary to systemically measure sexual dysfunction after cancer diagnosis and treatment employing an appropriate tool. Finally, effective interventions are required to improve sexual function.
Glycine receptor α4 subunit facilitates the early embryonic development in mice

Published: November 2019

Oviduct fluid is essential for the fertilization and subsequent preimplantation development. Glycine is abundant in oviduct fluid and is reported to be critical for preimplantation development of fertilized eggs in mammals. However, the mechanism by which glycine exerts its action on fertilized eggs is yet to be understood. Here we show that glycine regulates the preimplantation development of mouse fertilized eggs via glycine receptors. Among them, the alpha-4 subunit (Glra4) and the β subunit are expressed in mouse fertilized eggs, and lacking Glra4 inhibits embryonic development to the blastocyst stage, decreases the number of cells in the blastocysts and the litter size. Thus, we identify a novel function of the glycine receptor, which is considered to act mainly as a neurotransmitter receptor, as a regulator of embryonic development and our data provide new insights into the interactions between oviduct milieu and mammalian fertilized egg.
Hechiceras de Cervantes, Faustos hispanos y rosas de invierno
Authors: Pedrosa José Manuel
Published: November 2019

La hechicera llamada la Camacha de Montilla tenía la capacidad, según Cervantes, de hacer que en diciembre floreciesen rosas frescas en su jardín y de segar trigo en enero. Este artículo analiza esas capacidades mágicas conforme a su documentación en otros relatos de magia, brujería, maravillas, viajes, milagros, épica, romancero, poesía lírica y satírica, etc. Se plantean comparaciones con obras de Ovidio, Séneca, Boccaccio, Lope de Vega, María de Zayas, cronistas de Indias y muchos más autores. Y, sobre todo, se analiza la relación con el ciclo narrativo de Fausto. Se revelan algunas versiones españolas del relato de Fausto anteriores a la documentada en Alemania en 1587.
La Inquisición contra la bigamia: en defensa del orden social
Authors: Martínez Millán José
Published: November 2019

Además de los sentimientos, mentalidad y circunstancias antropológicas y so­ciales, que se descubren en un proceso inquisitorial por bigamia, la acusación de bigamia, ante todo, llevaba consigo la exclusión social, si se tiene en cuenta que el matrimonio era el elemento que estructuraba la sociedad de Occidente. Una familia manchega lo entendió a la perfección y utilizó la Inquisición para acusar de este delito a una mujer, que se había casado con su hijo en segundas nupcias, para segregarla socialmente e impedir que se incorporara a su nivel social, que era superior.
Las mujeres criptojudías en la primera mitad del siglo xviii: recuperación histórica e Inquisición
Authors: Pérez-Villanueva Sonia
Published: November 2019

Entre 1700 y 1758, alrededor de 800 mujeres fueron castigadas por practicar la ley de Moisés en España. Consideramos por ello importante estudiar el papel de las mujeres criptojudías en el contexto histórico de la primera mitad del siglo xviii para poder investigar las razones por las que la Inquisición las consideró como su principal amenaza y objetivo de persecución. En un principio, se dará un breve contexto político-cultural de las primeras décadas del siglo xviii para entender el porqué del despertar del acoso inquisitorial contra las culturas criptojudías. De ahí, se señalará la importancia de las mujeres en dicho ámbito para luego pasar al estudio de los autos de fe, la presencia de las mujeres en dichos procesos y el poder propagandístico de las publicaciones de los autos de fe en forma de relaciones.
Doble ejemplaridad de la mujer en discursos religiosos novohispanos del siglo xvii
Authors: Pérez Manuel
Published: November 2019

La presencia de la mujer en discursos religiosos es asunto bien estudiado, aun­que se ha insistido más en los poderosos tópicos misóginos que guían su representación, y menos en sus valoraciones positivas. En este artículo se exponen los resultados de un breve estudio retórico de las representaciones femeninas en discursos religiosos novohis­panos, a partir de uno de los lugares del discurso donde es posible observar con mayor cla­ridad su dimensión ideológica: la argumentatio, el lugar de las pruebas. Quintiliano había establecido tres modos en que la comparación ejemplar podía tener lugar en el discurso: en su relación de «semejanza» con la causa, en relación de «desemejanza» o el «ejemplo contrario»; la mayor parte de los tópicos misóginos religiosos —cuya observación ha sido dominante en los estudios al respecto— corresponden técnicamente a usos ejemplares contrarios a su causa, pero la representación femenina no se agota en estos tópicos pues falta una serie importante de representaciones semejantes, que muestran ya no los vicios de las mujeres sino sus virtudes deseables y su utilidad social. En cualquier caso, los es­pacios para la virtud femenina que encontramos en los ejemplos semejantes siguen siendo asfixiantes e injustos para las mujeres; aunque su observación permite completar el marco de posibilidades de representación femenina en discursos religiosos, y permite además determinar otro modo de realización retórica de dichas representaciones.

Magnon-Plasmon Polaritons in the Layered Structure Metal–Ferrite with a Periodic Stripe-Like Structure of Domains
Authors: Zavislyak I. V. , Chumak H. L.
Published: November 2019

The theory of magnon-plasmon polaritons in the layered structure metal–ferrite–air is presented. It is assumed that the ferrite has an easy-axis anisotropy, and, in the absence of a magnetization field, it is in an unsaturated state with a periodic stripe-like domain structure. A dispersion dependence for magnon-plasmon polaritons and corresponding microwave field distributions in a waveguide structure based on BaFe12O19-type hexaferrite are found. Effects associated with the hybridization of surface plasmon polaritons and domain resonances in the ferrite layer are analyzed. General characteristics of magnon-plasmon-polariton millimeter-wave resonators are discussed.
Prevention Effectiveness of Non-Performing Financing in the Indonesian Islamic Bank
Authors: Mutawali M. , Rodoni Ahmad , Said Muhammad Bin
Published: November 2019

Islamic banking still has a high ratio of non-performing financing. This study analyzes the causes of non-performing financing, along with the prevention effectiveness and resolution strategies performed by Islamic banks in dealing with this problem. Interviews conducted on nine informants, with questionnaires distributed to 30 respondents. The results show that the prevention effectiveness performed by Islamic banks consists of legal aspects, qualified human resources, and criteria assessment used to finance proposals, and improve risk management. Furthermore, internal factors such as default, information asymmetry, and financial stress were attributes of non-performing financing, which is externally influenced by inflation, GDP decline, natural disasters, interest rates, and political criminality.JEL Classification: G21, G32

Published: November 2019

La producción de un material de referencia (MR) es un proceso en el que se realizan estudios relacionados con la preparación, envasado y caracterización (incluye homogeneidad y estabilidad). En este trabajo se presentan los resultados del desarrollo de un MR de agua potable. El envasado se realiza aplicando dos procedimientos (envasado convencional e inmersión). La caracterización se realizó por Absorción Atómica, ICPMS y Cromatografía iónica. La evaluación de homogeneidad del material se realizó para Na, Mg, Ca, Fe, K, Co, Pb, Mo, As, Ni, Se, Cu, Al, Cr Zn y aniones como NO3-y Cl-. La estabilidad se evaluó a corto (condiciones aceleradas) y largo plazo por ICPMS y CI, además se realizó seguimiento gravimétrico. La homogeneidad y estabilidad se evaluaron con base en su incertidumbre. La incertidumbre asociada a la homogeneidad y estabilidad MR evidenció resultados aceptables para la mayoría de los analitos. Los resultados del seguimiento gravimétrico permitieron detectar pérdidas de masa del material, por lo que se planteó un nuevo esquema para evaluar la estabilidad a través de métodos gravimétricos. Finalmente, se encontró que el MR presenta incertidumbres expandidas entre el 0,93% y el 4,38%, siendo apto para el uso previsto.
