MATERNAL EMPLOYMENT AND CHILD OVERWEIGHT AND OBESITY:LITERATURE REVIEW
Authors: Romlah Romlah , Puspita Sari Anjelina
Published: June 2020

Working mothers are suspected of having links with the increase in excess weight (overweight and obesity) in children. Working mothers would be faced with a 'barter' situation of getting the least time spent with their children with the increasing family income. With little time the mothers spend with their children, they might lose control of the intake of food consumed by their children. When children eat more fast food containing high fat and sugar, the children will be more at risk for having excess weight. In fact, excess weight increases the children to suffer from diseases that were once only often suffered by adults. Diseases such as cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus are getting more common in children. Especially for girls, they will experience the process of pregnancy someday. Of course, obesity experienced by them will impact on the pregnancy when they remain obese as adults. Obesity in pregnancy may be at risk of the emergence of gestational diabetes that will allow bearing obese children as well. Therefore, before bad things happen in families with regard to the health of families, parents, especially mothers, should pay attention to the intake of foods consumed by children and devote more time to children in their growth period for Indonesia’s better generation.

Establishing Group Autonomy through Self-Access Center Learning Experiences
Authors: Kimura Harumi
Published: June 2020

In this article, I argue that a self-access center (SAC) should be able to foster group autonomy, although SACs were originally developed for individually autonomous L2 learning experiences—i.e., each student studying L2 on his or her own. Along with offering learning materials and chances for individual self-study, a SAC should provide opportunities for building and maintaining a learner community. The data obtained by a narrative frame and subsequent e-mail correspondence demonstrated that active users often come to SACs to do homework and prepare for classes. They are happy to work together and have opportunities to make friends with students in different classes and in different year groups—i.e., mutual peer support is vital. Fun activities for establishing rapport and boosting L2 learning motivation are worth implementing. Learner autonomy ultimately involves interdependence between learners in a well-functioning learner community, and for this purpose a SAC can and should be a physical space where students can comfortably spend time and interact with other students, as well as with counselors and teachers.
General Tendencies of English Language Learners in Using an Independent Learning Centre within the Turkish Higher Education Context
Authors: Uzun Tarik
Published: June 2020

Independent Learning Centres (Self-Access Centres) have become an essential component in language teaching institutions to aid learning and foster autonomous learning behaviour. To reach these goals, it is vital to ‘listen to the people’ in the target group. The efforts made and services offered need to be analysed systematically in each centre and centres should be organised and administered by taking students’ needs and expectations into consideration. The main aim of this study is to put forth a profile of how an Independent Learning Centre (ILC) is used by English preparatory class students (n=715) in higher education in Turkey. The overall numbers concerning the ILC use, purposes of regular users in visiting the centre, reasons of non-users, materials they find most useful and their needs and suggestions related to the centre have been analysed. The most common purpose for using the centre was found to be ‘to do homework’. According to the users, ‘listening materials’ are the most useful type of resources. ‘More study space’, ‘more listening materials’ and ‘more guidance’ were the most notable needs of the students in the centre. Based on the findings and understanding of the field, suggestions are given to improve the services and materials within the centre.
Possibilities of Independent Learning in Two Self-Access Facilities of an Iranian University
Authors: Mohammadi Afshin
Published: June 2020

The roles that self-access centers play in language learners’ development of autonomy considerably vary in accordance with the institutional features attributed to their structure and the services they offer. As part of a larger study which assessed 100 learners’ readiness for autonomy, this paper reports on the status quo of two facilities at the humanities faculty of an Iranian university, based on English-as-Foreign-Language (EFL) learners’ views and practices. Seven undergraduate EFL learners from various years of study were asked to describe the ways in which they exploit self-access services for language learning purposes and express their opinions vis-à-vis their functionality through semi-structured interviews. Findings reveal that most learners preferred not to attend the computer center, principally because, the Internet, as the most widely acknowledged service, had become available in other places around the university, such as in the dormitory. The reasons for this reluctance are highlighted, along with a presentation of some suggestions for upgrading learners’ participation in self-access language learning in similar contexts.
The Social Dimensions of Learner Autonomy and Self-Regulated Learning
Authors: Murray Garold
Published: June 2020

This paper examines how learner autonomy and self-regulated learning might be related by comparing and contrasting the two constructs. After identifying the traits learner autonomy and self-regulated learning have in common, I argue that in order to understand how they differ we have to look beyond a discrete point comparison of their features. Given that both areas of inquiry have been broadening their focus on the individual learner to include greater recognition of the role of the social environment in the learning process, I expand the scope of my analysis to include their social dimensions. In the ensuing discussion, I explore the notion that their social dimensions encompass emotional, spatial and political dimensions. To illustrate my points, I draw on data from an ethnographic inquiry investigating the experiences of Japanese English foreign language learners participating in a social language learning space on the campus of a large national university. The paper concludes by examining the implications of this theoretical discussion for pedagogical practice and further inquiry.
Discopatia cervical e toracolombar em cães: revisão
Authors: Borges Gabriela Augusta de Andrade Barbosa , Léga Elzylene
Published: June 2020

Existem duas categorias de discopatias, a cervical e a toracolombar. As lesões do disco cervical ocorrem mais comumente entre as vértebras cervicais C2-C3. As lesões do disco toracolombar ocorrem mais comumente entre as vértebras torácicas T12-T13 e toracolombares T13-L1. A hérnia de Hansen tipo I ocorre pela extrusão do disco intervertebral. A hérnia de Hansen tipo II ocorre pela protrusão do disco intervertebral. Na hérnia de Hansen tipo III ocorre lesão medular sem compressão. Na discopatia cervical o principal sinal clínico é a cervicalgia. Na discopatia toracolombar os sinais clínicos incluem variados graus de ataxia, paraparesia e paraplegia. O diagnóstico da doença do disco intervertebral (DDIV) é baseado na anamnese, exame físico, neurológico e complementares. A confirmação ocorre pelo exame complementar de imagem. Dentre as opções de exames complementares de imagem estão a radiografia simples (Exame de triagem), mielografia, tomografia, mielotomografia e, a melhor opção atualmente, a ressonância magnética. A sensibilidade à dor profunda é um importante indicador do prognóstico. O tratamento pode ser conservador, cujo principal aspecto é o confinamento estrito; ou por meio da descompressão cirúrgica. Na discopatia cervical os procedimentos cirúrgicos descompressivos incluem laminectomia dorsal, hemilaminectomia (Raramente indicadas) e slot ventral (Método de eleição). Na discopatia toracolombar os procedimentos cirúrgicos descompressivos incluem laminectomia dorsal (Funkquist tipo A e B, profunda e modificada), hemilaminectomia e mini-hemilaminectomia ou pediculectomia. No pós-operatório, muitos profissionais recomendam a fisioterapia e acupuntura para ajudar na recuperação.
Avaliação técnico econômica: Um Estudo de caso da atividade leiteira na Fazenda Olhos D’ Água
Authors: De Souza Patrick Vilela , Valentim Jean Kaique , Vilela Fernanda Fonseca , Campos Claudia Aparecida
Published: June 2020

Objetivou-se, com o desenvolvimento deste trabalho, avaliar os dados referentes aos índices econômicos e zootécnicos para analisar a rentabilidade da atividade leiteira da Fazenda Olhos D’Água, no período de janeiro de 2013 a dezembro de 2015. Foi realizada uma pesquisa descritiva especificamente um estudo de caso, para o levantamento dos dados necessários à realização da pesquisa. Os dados zootécnicos foram cadastrados no software Prodap-Profissional e os econômicos em tabelas do programa Balde Cheio. Foi realizado a correlação dos dados zootécnicos com os econômicos no período analisado, visando identificar os itens técnico econômico que mais afetam a eficiência e rentabilidade da atividade. Dos componentes do custo operacional efetivo, a alimentação e a mão-de-obra foram que mais contribuíram no aumento do mesmo. Pode-se observar que com a diminuição da produção de leite na propriedade no período avaliado, provenientes das tomadas de decisão do produtor, o custo total teve um grande aumento, devido as depreciações e remuneração do capital ser muito semelhante com a produção alta, média ou baixa. O preço do litro de leite recebido durante os três anos avaliados não houve grande diferença, mantendo muito estável. Nos dois primeiros anos avaliados, a atividade teve a maioria da receita proveniente de venda de vacas em lactação, e uma pequena quantidade de animais produtivos em relação ao rebanho, o que fez com que a atividade ficasse um pouco arriscada. Mas, a partir dos resultados alcançados nas análises, pode-se concluir que a atividade é viável, e que se encontra estruturada para os próximos anos.

Applications of Fuzzy Linear Programming to Business Problems
Authors: Voskoglou Michael Gr.
Published: June 2020

In large and complex systems it is often very difficult to find exact solutions to the Linear Programming problems with the standard techniques, since the necessary data cannot be easily determined precisely and therefore estimates of them are used in practice. Consequently, fuzzy techniques have been developed for achieving better results. In this work we introduce a simple method for solving Fuzzy Linear Programming problems with the help of Triangular Fuzzy Numbers and we apply it for solving business problems.

Azo-dimethylaminopyridine functionalized Ni(II)-Porphyrin as a Photoswitchable Nucleophilic Catalyst
Authors: Ludwig Jannis , Helberg Julian , Zipse Hendrik , Herges Rainer
Published: June 2020

We present the synthesis and the photochemical and catalytic switching properties of an azopyridine as a photoswitchable ligand, covalently attached to a Ni(II)-porphyrin. Upon irradiation with 530 nm (green light), the azopyridine switches to the cis configuration and coordinates with the Ni2+ ion. Light of 435 nm (violet) isomerizes the ligand back to the trans configuration, which decoordinates for steric reasons. This so-called record player design has been used previously to switch the spin state of Ni2+ between singlet and triplet. We now use the coordination/decoordination process to switch the catalytic activity of the dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) unit. DMAP is a known catalyst in the nitroaldol (Henry) reaction. Upon coordination to the Ni2+ ion, the basicity of the pyridine lone pair is attenuated and hence the catalytic activity is reduced. Decoordination restores the catalytic activity. The rate constants in the two switching states differ by a factor of 2.2, and the catalytic switching is reversible.

VISIONES Y ENSOÑACIONES DEL JAPONISMO EN LA NARRATIVA ESPAÑOLA Y UNAS NOTAS SOBRE LA RECEPCIÓN DE LA NARRATIVA JAPONESA
Authors: Almazán Tomás David
Published: June 2020

La narrativa japonesa comenzó a ser conocida en España en el siglo XIX indirectamente a través de estudios y antologías en lenguas occidentales y, con excepción de los cuentos, su recepción tuvo una escasa repercusión en el Japonismo literario español. En el variado repertorio del Japonismo literario destaca el interés de los libros de viaje y algunos relatos de ficción, que fundamentalmente se enmarcan en dos etapas, la era Meiji de finales del siglo XIX y comienzos del XX y, por otra parte, la década de los años veinte. Asimismo, destacamos una particularidad del Japonismo literario español, que fue la persistencia en el interés de evangelizar Japón. Este discurso que enlaza con la tradición de los misioneros del SigloIbérico en Japón, predomina frente a la seducción de las religiones orientales, tema menos frecuente. La visión y ensoñación de la mujer japonesa fue el tema principal de estos relatos.

O custeio por absorção e o custeio abc
Authors: Martinez Willian Willian Maciel , Nascimento Marcelo Augusto
Published: June 2020

Diversos hospitais desconhecem seu próprio custo e uma parcela deles utiliza o custeio por absorção, porém, esta metodologia pode distorcer o custo final dos serviços prestados devido aos rateios arbitrários. Para tanto, este artigo foi elaborado com o intuito de mensurar e quantificar a diferença real de custo entre duas metodologias de apuração: o custeio por absorção e o custeio baseado em atividades (ABC). O principal objetivo é analisar e demonstrar com riqueza de detalhes todo o processo de aplicação dos medicamentos imunobiológicos pelo custeio ABC.O tema foi abordado de forma qualitativa e seu procedimento técnico é o estudo de caso. No ABC os processos são mapeados de ponta a ponta e demonstram minuciosamente os detalhes e custos de cada atividade desenvolvida na instituição. O método de custeio baseado em atividades demonstrou ser mais eficaz no que tange ao grau de assertividade das informações.

Published: June 2020

Este trabalho visa realizar um levantamento sobre a predominância dos sintomas físicos e psicológicos de estresse dos profissionais de enfermagem que atuam em hospitais da cidade de Ponta Grossa/PR. Como método para o alcance do objetivo foi confeccionado e aplicado um questionário sócio demográfico e também aplicado o instrumento ISE – Inventário Sintomas de Estresse construído por Ana Maria T. Benevides Pereira & Bernardo Moreno Jiménez (2000), a ferramenta foi validada estatisticamente alcançando um alfa de Crombach de 0,9236. O ISE é constituído por escala de Likert de 5 pontos, indo de 0 como "nunca" a 4 como "assiduamente". A população escolhida foi de 103 profissionais de enfermagem na qual foram questionados uma amostra de 76 enfermeiros com o grau de confiança de 95% sobre a população. Em relação aos resultados alcançados na pesquisa pode-se afirmar que atualmente os enfermeiros apresentam predominância de sintomas físicos em média de 1,99 e psicológicos em média 1,95, considerado um nível médio de estresse. O resultado é extremamente grave, pois dentro dessa média provavelmente existam pessoas com nível baixo e outras com nível elevado, isto tendencia uma estabilidade ao longo do tempo para um nível alto de estresse.
THE ROLE OF THE HOME GUARD IN PROTECTING THE RYAZAN DEFENSE AREA

DURING THE BATTLE OF MOSCOW

(September 30, 1941 — April 20, 1942)
Authors: Шевченко А.А.
Published: June 2020

В статье исследуется актуальная на сегодняшний день проблема изучения опыта ведения боевых действий в годы Великой Отечественной войны. Акцентируется внимание на участии в оборонительных действиях частей народного ополчения в ходе Московской битвы, в том числе на Рязанском участке обороны, на основных направлениях деятельности чрезвычайных органов управления на территории Рязанской области по формированию и обеспечению подразделений народного ополчения. Опыт и проблемы применения последних рассмотрены на примере и в сравнении с ополченческими формированиями других регионов, так же ставших местом сражений Московской битвы. На основе изложенного в статье материала сформулированы выводы и обобщения по предлагаемой теме.
В ходе боевых действий под Рязанью непосредственное участие в защите оборонительных рубежей, разведке противника и охране важных объектов города принимали подразделения
1-го Рязанского добровольческого рабочего полка. Как составляющая часть народного ополчения Рязанский добровольческий рабочий полк под руководством опытного командира И. Н. Ромадина смог стать реальной силой и во взаимодействии с регулярными частями Красной армии сыграл важную роль в обороне города Рязани.
В статье использованы материалы мемуаров участников событий, архивных документов, научных научно-популярных изданий современных авторов, региональных энциклопедий и справочников.

A SPATIAL SEMIOTICS OF ANCIENT URBAN AREAS

AS A RESOURCE FOR SOCIOCULTURAL DEVELOPMENT

OF A REGION AT THE EXAMPLE OF THE VOLOGDA REGION
Authors: Касаткина С.С.
Published: June 2020

В статье предложен дискурс определения понятия «древний город», введено авторское значение понятия «семиотическое пространство древнего города», рассмотрены семиокоды города как элементы урбосферы. В исследовании применены историко-культурный, визуально-семиотический методы, обоснован системно-семиотический подход изучения древнего города, связанный с пониманием трех элементов урбосферы: концепта (историческое значение древнего города), структуры (социальная жизнь горожан) и субстрата (физическое и ментальное пространство — городской ландшафт). Основу данной публикации составил анализ субстратных значений древнего города как ресурса его развития, основанный на изучении семиотических пространств городов Вологодской области. Выявлено, что историческая память города, его материальный и ментальный ландшафт
и уникальный визуальный образ являются ключевыми семиокодами древних поселений, на основе которых возможно эффективное конструирование социокультурного развития любого региона страны. Автор предлагает перспективные направления работы с пространством старинных городов России на примере внимания к семиотическому пространству городов Вологодской области, способствующие активному социокультурному развитию их территорий.

The article defines the concept of “ancient urban areas” and comments on the author’s perception of spatial semiotics of ancient settlements. It also treats urban semiotic conventions as elements of urban space. The research employs historical-cultural, visual-semiotic and systemic-semiotic approaches in order to investigate such elements of urban space as concepts (history of ancient urban areas), structures (urban dwellers’ social life), and substrates (physical and mental space, urban landscape). The article analyzes the substrate of ancient settlements as a resource for sociocultural development based on the investigation of spatial semiotics of urban areas of the Vologda Region. The article maintains that the historical memory
of an urban area, its material and mental landscape, its unique visual image are key semiotic conventions which may be used to efficiently promote sociocultural development of a region. The author speaks about some promising avenues for processing the spatial semiotics of ancient Russian settlements promoting their sociocultural development.

“Inflation” of Human Rights. John Paul II and human rights
Authors: Reimers Adrian J.
Published: June 2020

One of the central principles of modern political philosophy, dating from the time of John Locke, is that of human rights. Locke characterized a right as something pertaining to the individual human being as free and equal to every other human being. To this notion of inherent rights, John Stuart Mill added that a right must be something in virtue of which a person can make a claim on another or on the state. Third, the modern notion of right presupposes the concept of dignity. In contemporary societies, we are witnessing an inflation of rights, which raises two questions: 1) are new rights truly being discovered, and 2) how can we discern the legitimacy of these rights? J. S. Mill’s utilitarianism holds the touchstone of good and evil to be individual happiness, and that over his own self the individual is sovereign. From this it follows that only the individual can know what is his own true good. Therefore, he ought to expect that society will support or at least not interfere with his own attainment of his good as he conceives it. Therefore “my” rights must encompass that “I” recognize to be my own needs. Others are responsible to grant to the sovereign individual those rights that he claims. From such a principle follows the rights to personal sexual satisfaction, suicide, and to marry another of one’s own sex without public disapproval. Paradoxically, this inflation of rights is supported also by the quasi-Marxist notion that different classes of persons are inevitably opposed to each other and that for their protection the prerogatives of different groups must be recognized as rights.To avoid and correct this inflation it is necessary to develop a richer anthropology to found the concept of human dignity and, consequently, rights. Following the example and thinking of Pope John Paul II, we propose a reexamination of Mill’s claim that a right necessarily entails some well-defined claim on another personor entity, and that a right is not so much a legal claim as a claim upon conscience.

Kryzys obyczajowo-społeczny w państwie rzymskim rozpoczął się już za czasów Republiki Rzymskiej i przyczynił się do jej upadku. Lex Iulia et Papia to zbiór ustaw wprowadzonych po upadku rzeczypospolitej, za panowania Oktawiana Augusta. Ustawy te miały na celu zwalczenie kryzysu społeczno-obyczajowego poprzez przywrócenie dawnych obyczajów, formy rodziny rzymskiej, dzietności oraz zwalczenie cudzołóstwa. Co prawda reforma Augusta nie odniosła skutków na oczekiwaną skalę, jednak jak wskazują historycy miała swoją wartość we wzmocnieniu moralnym społeczeństwa i dała podwaliny późniejszemu rozkwitowi kulturalnemu i gospodarczemu.

SAUDI WOMEN BEHAVIOR TOWARDS THE ACCEPTANCE OF INDUSTRIAL SMALL BUSINESS
Authors: Almohaimmeed Bader , Al-Tit Ahmad Adnan , Hasaballah Abdel Hafiez
Published: June 2020

The aim of this research was to canvass Saudi women’s opinions about behavioral beliefs, i.e.,
attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control on their behavioral intention and hence adopting the small
business initiative. Following the descriptive method, adopting the planned behavior theory PBT, a questionnaire consisted
of 15 items was adapted to measure the variables of the research, i.e., three predictors, which are attitudes toward the
behavior, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control, one mediating variable, which is behavioral intent and one
dependent variable, which is the actual behavior. The questionnaire was electronically administered. A total of 724
questionnaires was collected in 2019. The results indicated that attitudes towards the behavior, subjective norms and
perceived behavioral control had significant effects on behavioral intention, which in turn affect the target behavior.
Behavioral intention had shown a mediating effect on the relationship between predictors and the response variable.
Consequently, decision-makers are required to conduct awareness campaigns in order to promote the involvement in small
businesses in the community, raising women’s attitudes towards this type of business via success stories and full
government support. Their perceived behavioral control can be enhanced through training to acquire business-related
skills.
EVALUATION OF DYNAMICS OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN POLISH AND LITHUANIAN REGIONS
Authors: Lisiński Marek , Augustinaitis Arūnas , Nazarko Lukasz , Ratajczak Sabina
Published: June 2020

Regional policy of the countries – reducing disparities between economic development of the regions – has been,
is and will continue to be the focus of policy makers’ attention, therefore it is important to assess regional conditions qualitatively
and to spot the differences in the change of these condition. This would be the basis for developing targeted strategies for further
regional development. The process of regional economic development may be assessed quantitatively and qualitatively. The integrated
mean of the statistical indicators reflects the dynamics of development. The paper’s objective is to develop an aggregate indicator of
development dynamics and to quantify the dynamics of the economic development of the Polish and Lithuanian regions. The employed
methodological approach is based on the authors’ definition of the mean of regional economic development equilibrium. The analysis of
the statistical characteristics of the indicators of three regions of Poland and Lithuania has shown that the dynamics of economic
development in the regions of both countries is similar. On the other hand, Poland is characterized by a more intensive development,
while the development of Lithuanian regions is more levelled.
Spectroscopic Studies of 30 Short-period Cataclysmic Variable Stars and Remarks on the Evolution and Population of Similar Objects
Authors: Thorstensen John R.
Published: June 2020

We present spectroscopy and orbital periods P
orb for 30 apparently nonmagnetic cataclysmic binaries with periods below ∼3 hr, nearly all of which are dwarf novae, mostly of the SU Ursae Majoris subclass. We then turn to the evidence supporting the prediction that short-period dwarf novae evolve toward longer periods after passing through a minimum period—the “period bounce” phenomenon. Plotting data from the literature reveals that for superhump period excess ϵ = (P
sh − P
orb)/P
orb below ∼0.015, the period appears to increase with decreasing ϵ, agreeing at least qualitatively with the predicted behavior. Next, motivated by the long (decadal) outburst intervals of the WZ Sagittae subclass of short-period dwarf novae, we ask whether there could be a sizable population of “lurkers”—systems that resemble dwarf novae at minimum light, but which do not outburst over accessible timescales (or at all) and therefore do not draw attention to themselves. By examining the outburst history of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey sample of CVs, which were selected by color and not by outburst, we find that a large majority of the color-selected dwarf-nova-like objects have been observed to outburst, and we conclude that “lurkers,” if they exist, are a relatively minor part of the CV population.

We present new subarcsecond-resolution Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) imaging at 10 GHz of 155 ultraluminous (L
bol ∼ 1011.7–1014.2
L
⊙) and heavily obscured quasars with redshifts z ∼ 0.4–3. The sample was selected to have extremely red mid-infrared–optical color ratios based on data from the Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) along with a detection of bright, unresolved radio emission from the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) or Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty cm Survey. Our high-resolution VLA observations have revealed that the majority of the sources in our sample (93 out of 155) are compact on angular scales <0.″2 (≤1.7 kpc at z ∼ 2). The radio luminosities, linear extents, and lobe pressures of our sources are similar to young radio active galactic nuclei (e.g., gigahertz-peaked spectrum [GPS] and compact steep-spectrum [CSS] sources), but their space density is considerably lower. Application of a simple adiabatic lobe expansion model suggests relatively young dynamical ages (∼104–7 yr), relatively high ambient ISM densities (∼1–104 cm−3), and modest lobe expansion speeds (∼30–10,000 km s−1). Thus, we find our sources to be consistent with a population of newly triggered, young jets caught in a unique evolutionary stage in which they still reside within the dense gas reservoirs of their hosts. Based on their radio luminosity function and dynamical ages, we estimate that only ∼20% of classical large-scale FR I/II radio galaxies could have evolved directly from these objects. We speculate that the WISE-NVSS sources might first become GPS or CSS sources, of which some might ultimately evolve into larger radio galaxies.
Coronal Dimmings Associated with Coronal Mass Ejections on the Solar Limb

Published: June 2020

We present a statistical analysis of 43 coronal dimming events associated with Earth-directed coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that occurred during the period of quasi-quadrature of the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) and Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) satellites. We studied coronal dimmings that were observed above the limb by STEREO Extreme Ultraviolet Imager and compared their properties with the mass and speed of the associated CMEs. The unique position of the satellites allowed us to compare our findings with the results from Dissauer et al., who studied the same events observed against the solar disk by the SDO Atmospheric Imaging Assembly. Such statistics is done for the first time and confirms the relation of coronal dimmings and CME parameters for the off-limb viewpoint. The observations of dimming regions from different lines of sight reveal a similar decrease in the total extreme ultraviolet intensity (c = 0.60 ± 0.14). We find that the (projected) dimming areas are typically larger for off-limb observations (mean value of 1.24 ± 1.23 × 1011 km2 against 3.51 ± 0.71 × 1010 km2 for on-disk), with a correlation of c = 0.63 ± 0.10. This systematic difference can be explained by the (weaker) contributions to the dimming regions higher up in the corona that cannot be detected in the on-disk observations. The off-limb dimming areas and brightnesses show very strong correlations with the CME mass (c = 0.82 ± 0.06 and 0.75 ± 0.08), whereas the dimming area and brightness change rate correlate with the CME speed (c ∼ 0.6). Our findings suggest that coronal dimmings have the potential to provide early estimates of the mass and speed of Earth-directed CMEs, relevant for space weather forecasts, for satellite locations at both L1 and L5.
Keeping It Cool: Much Orbit Migration, yet Little Heating, in the Galactic Disk
Authors: Frankel Neige , Sanders Jason , Ting (丁源森) Yuan-Sen , Rix Hans-Walter
Published: June 2020

A star in the Milky Way’s disk can now be at a Galactocentric radius quite distant from its birth radius for two reasons: either its orbit has become eccentric through radial heating, which increases its radial action J

R
(“blurring”), or merely its angular momentum L

z
has changed and thereby its guiding radius (“churning”). We know that radial orbit migration is strong in the Galactic low-α disk and set out to quantify the relative importance of these two effects, by devising and applying a parameterized model (

) for the distribution

in the stellar disk. This model describes the orbit evolution for stars of age τ and metallicity

, presuming that coeval stars were initially born on (near-)circular orbits, and with a unique

at a given birth angular momentum and age. We fit this model to APOGEE red clump stars, accounting for the complex selection function of the survey. The best-fit model implies changes of angular momentum of

and changes of radial action as

at 8 kpc. This suggests that the secular orbit evolution of the disk is dominated by diffusion in angular momentum, with radial heating being an order of magnitude lower.
Intestinal parasitic infections in children under five in the Central Hospital of Nampula, Northern Mozambique

Published: June 2020

Introduction: Intestinal parasites are known to cause infection in humans worldwide, with higher prevalence in low- and middle- incoming countries. Children are greatly affected leading to malnutrition and subsequently to physical and cognitive development impairment. Despite the scale and importance of this issue, there are few studies conducted in Mozambique concerning parasitic intestinal infections in hospitalized children. To our knowledge this is the first published report with data on this subject from Northern Mozambique.

Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted in 2012 and 2013 in 831 children, attending the Central Hospital of Nampula in Northern Mozambique. One single stool sample was obtained from each child. Socio-demographic and clinical data were also obtained. Parasitological analysis of feces was performed through direct examination and Ritchie concentration technique and Giardia duodenalis antigen detection by rapid immunochromatographic test. Modified Ziehl-Neelsen staining was used for coccidia detection.

Results: The global prevalence of pathogenic intestinal parasites was 31.6%. G. duodenalis (23.9%) was by far the most prevalent parasite followed by Strongyloides stercoralis (4.1%) and Cryptosporidium sp. (3.4%). Intestinal parasites were more frequent in older children (p = 0.005; aOR = 1.025).

Conclusions: This work is one of the few published studies reporting intestinal parasites infection in hospitalized children. The percentage of children affected with G. duodenalis is higher than found in other studies in the African region. This highlights the need of particular attention being given to this intestinal protozoan and its resistance to water treatment, as well as to environmental health and personal hygiene.
