geomIO: an open-source MATLAB toolbox to create the initial configuration of 2D/3D thermo-mechanical simulations from 2D vector drawings
Authors: Bauville Arthur , Baumann Tobias
Published: February 2019

Creating the initial geometry and temperature configuration of 3D numerical simulations is a challenging task. Professional tools are expensive. They often have a steep learning curve and do mostly not interface with the numerical simulation software used by the geodynamics and tectonics academic community. There, we developed geomIO (geometry Input/Output), a MATLAB toolbox to create the initial configuration of geological models regarding model geometry and temperature structure. geomIO allows users to create a geo-referenced 3D volume by drawing multiple 2D cross-sections in a standard vector graphics editor. The volume is then used to assign material properties and set up initial temperature distribution on a set of vertices. In 2D mode, polygons can also be used to create a triangular mesh. In addition to the standard functionality, the gravity anomaly of any geometry created with geomIO can be calculated. In this paper, we give an overview of the basic functionalities of geomIO. We illustrate the strength of our software with advanced tectonic and geodynamic applications that could not have been performed with currently available free software. Applications include the Himalayan orogen, the Japanese subduction zones, present-day salt diapirs, and small-scale tectonic structures. We describe algorithms and file formats in the supporting information. The toolbox is user-friendly and flexible. Users can use custom pipelines or pre-set data processing pipelines, so most applications require only a few lines of code. geomIO is distributed under the GNU General Public License and includes an online wiki with tutorials and additional examples.

Changes in working memory facilitate the transition from reactive to proactive cognitive control during childhood
Authors: Troller-Renfree Sonya V. , Buzzell George , Fox Nathan A.
Published: February 2019

Cognitive control develops rapidly over the first decade of life, with one of the dominant changes being a transition from reliance on “as-needed” control (reactive control) to a more planful, sustained form of control (proactive control). While the emergence of proactive control is important for adaptive, mature behavior, we know little about how this transition takes place, the neural correlates of this transition, and whether development of executive functions are a precondition for developing the ability to adopt a proactive control strategy. The present study addresses these questions, focusing on the transition from reactive to proactive control in a cross-sectional sample of 79 children – forty-one 5-year-olds and thirty-eight 9-year-olds. Children completed an adapted version of the AX-Continuous Performance Task while electroencephalography was recorded and a standardized executive function battery was administered. Results revealed 5-year-olds predominantly employed reactive strategies, while 9-year-olds used proactive strategies. Critically, use of proactive control was predicted by working memory ability, above and beyond other executive functions. Moreover, when enacting proactive control, greater increases in neural activity underlying working memory updating were observed; links between working memory ability and proactive control strategy use were mediated by such neural activity. Collectively, the results provide convergent evidence that the developmental transition from reactive to proactive control is dependent on neurocognitive development of specific executive functioning skills. Developments in working memory appear to be a precondition for adopting the more mature, and adaptive, proactive control strategy.
Making Good News: Institutional Mediation and the Quality of Coverage of the 1960s Civil Rights Movement

Published: February 2019

When social movement organizations receive extensive newspaper coverage, why is it sometimes substantive? Scholars agree that the news media are key to movement organizations’ influence, helping them alter public discourse and effect political change, but often find that protest is covered non-substantively. Employing insights from literatures on historical institutionalism, the social organization of the news, and the consequences of movements, we elaborate an “institutional mediation” model that identifies the interactive effects on coverage of news institutions’ operating procedures, movement organizations’ characteristics and action, and political contexts. Although movement actors suffer compound legitimacy deficits with journalists, the institutional mediation model identifies the openings news institutions provide, the movement organizational characteristics and collective action likely to induce substantive news treatment, and the political contexts that will amplify or dampen these effects. We derive four interactive hypotheses from this model addressing organizational identities, collective action, and political contexts on news outcomes. We appraise the hypotheses with comparative and qualitative comparative analyses of more than 1000 individually coded articles discussing the five most-covered organizations of the 1960s U.S. civil rights movement across four national newspapers. We find support for each hypothesis, and discuss the implications for other movement organizations and the current media context.
Uterine Transplantation: Ethics in Light of Recent Successes
Authors: Flynn Jennifer , Ramji Naila
Published: February 2019

We argue that strong moral objections to widespread implementation of uterine transplantation persist despite recent live births following the procedure. These objections relate not only to the serious medical risk to which live donors are currently subject but also to the strength of pronatalistic and biologistic social forces. We explore medical risk in light of various factors and treat questions relating uterine transplantation to gestational surrogacy.
An Exploration of the Ethics of Collecting Forensic Evidence from Sexual Assault Survivors
Authors: Bruijns Leona
Published: February 2019

Sexual assault is a common experience for women and a significant topic for feminist scholarship. However, discussions of forensic evidence collection have been largely neglected. This paper considers the ethics of forensic evidence collection by situating the conversation in the context of the experience of sexual assault. The power of patriarchal norms and rape myths, the impact of trauma, and the systemic sexism in the medical and legal systems are also discussed. With this literature in mind, recommendations are made to improve the medical response to sexual assault survivors and the procedures of forensic evidence collection.
An Argument for a Substantively Weak-Dialogical Approach to Autonomy
Authors: Wolever Matthew
Published: February 2019

This paper proposes a novel relational view of autonomy designed to overcome the inadequacies of procedural and substantive views of autonomy as they relate to physician-assisted suicide (PAS) requests for individuals with diminished cognitive functioning. Traditional and other relational views of autonomy regard a patient as an “isolated monad,” ignore patients with limited personal autonomy, and overlook the contexts in which decisions like PAS are made. However, these weaknesses become the strengths of a synthesized relational view of autonomy, which enhances the personal autonomy of those with limited personal autonomy so that their PAS requests can be granted.
Gender, Status, and the Steepness of the Social Gradients in Health
Authors: Fourie Carina
Published: February 2019

Many social gradients in health appear steeper for men than for women. I refer to this as the “Steepness Puzzle.” This paper explores the ethical implications of this Puzzle. First, it identifies potential explanations for the Steepness Puzzle, including methodological problems. Second, it highlights two harms associated with the methodological explanation: the consequences of biased epistemic practices and the marginalization of women. It also demonstrates how attempts to flatten the gradients in health could disproportionately favor men or reinforce troubling gendered norms. Finally, I suggest ways to address the methodological problems underlying the Puzzle.

Published: February 2019

Purpose: This article reveals MPT practicum participant perceptions of the impact that a community-based practicum in a Métis community had on their learning in the area of cultural humility and cultural safety. Method: The impact of this community-based practicum intervention in a Métis community on MPT student education was explored using phenomenological descriptive methodology, with data gathered via exit interviews conducted on completion of the community-based practicum. Concepts of cultural humility and safety from the literature, along with themes emerging from practicum participant interviews, informed the analysis and theme development. Results: Participants’ experiences were categorized into three themes: (1) realizing Métis community strengths; (2) learning from experiences and shaping future practice; and (3) prioritizing relationships. Findings support that participants demonstrated the practice of cultural humility as a result of engaging in the community-based practicum. Conclusions: Our results highlight the importance of (1) community engagement, (2) community-informed practicum design based on strong relationships, (3) a backbone of reflective practice, and (4) a base of community and student readiness to support practicum success. These essential elements support a cultural humility approach to implementing MPT practicums in Indigenous communities, as well as a practice in reconciliation.

Refractory neuroblastoma, victory over pain (clinical case)
Authors: Kalinchuk O O , Korol T G , Blazhko S S , Kosechenko N U
Published: February 2019

Neuroblastoma is a malignant tumor that develops from the stem cells of the sympathetic ganglia and the adrenal medulla and belongs to the group of neuroendocrine tumors. It is most often localized in the adrenal glands and the retroperitoneal space, less – in sympathetic ganglia of the neck and thoracic cavity. Pain syn-drome is one of the leading manifestations in patients with disease progression. Unlike other patients, a pain syndrome in oncological patients is not a temporary or periodic sensation, it has no physio-logical expediency, it does not have a protective mechanism, but, on the contrary, pain in this group of patients leads to inadaptation, distorted perception of pain and small impulses, most importantly, accompanied by various disorders of the functions of the central nervous system in the patient’s body.

THE EFFECT OF TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP AND ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE ON EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE PT TELKOM RIAU DARATAN (Survey of PT Telkom Riau Mainland offices)
Authors: Zainal Haznil
Published: February 2019

The importance of organizational behavior (OCB) to achieve organizational effectiveness has long been recognized by practice managers. Some recent research in this area highlights the importance of OCB for almost all organizational forms and notes that OCB can improve organizational effectiveness in many ways. Over the past decade, organizational justice and trust in organizations have been the concern of scientists and practitioners of organizational studies, particularly with regard to their impact on organizational effectiveness and employees' desire to cooperate and be productive in the organization. However, some researchers in organizational studies have differences in researching organizational justice and organizational beliefs. With regard to organizational justice, some empirical studies address only one or two dimensions of organizational justice, while other empirical studies address the overall (three) dimensions of organizational justice such as distributive justice, procedural jus- tice, and interactional justice. For some of these reasons, research relating to the three dimensions of organizational justice (distributive justice, procedural jus- tice, and interactional justice) and organizational trust is still needed. Research that discusses the impact of organizational justice on the organizational beliefs of non-Western countries especially in Indonesia is still rarely found in scientific publications. Given that there is a knowledge gap (scientific publication) in the study of organization and human resource management on the subject, this study tries to prove whether the organizational justice dimension consisting of distributive justice, procedural jusctice, and interactional justice influence the level of employee trust in the organization especially at the College of Economic Sciences in Pekanbaru City, Riau, Indonesia.

Published: February 2019

Preeklampsi; hipertansiyon, proteinüri ve birçok
klinik manifestasyon ile karakterize multisistem bir hastalıktır. Etyopatogenezi
henüz tam olarak anlaşılamasa da azalmış plasental perfüzyonun genetik,
immünolojik ve inflamatuar faktörlerden etkilendiği bilinmektedir. Preeklampside
artan hücresel immünitenin temel mediatörlerinden adenozin deaminaz (ADA),
pürin nükleotidlerinin yıkımında yer alan ve Adenozin’in İnozin’e çevrimini
katalizleyen bir enzimdir. Preeklampside hücresel immünitenin artmasına bağlı
olarak ADA seviyelerindeki artış saptanmıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı preeklamptik
hastalarda ADA gen polimorfizmini değerlendirmektir. Çalışmaya 45
asemptomatik normal gebe ile 43 preeklampsili gebe alındı. Olgulardan alınan
maternal plazma örneklerinden PCR-RFLP (Polymerase Chain Reaction- Restriction fragment lenght polymorphism) tekniği ile 20. kromozom
uzun kolu üzerinde bulunan ADA geninin 8. kodon kısmındaki 22. nükleotidinin G
(Guanin)’den A (Adenin)’e dönmesi ile karakterize gen polimorfizmi incelendi.
Her iki gruptan elde edilen verilerin istatistiksel analizi Fisher exact test
ve Ki-kare testleri ile yapıldı. Her iki grup arasında psikososyokültürel ve
demografik özellikler açısından fark saptanmadı. Kontrol grubundaki
adenozin deaminaz gen polimorfizmi oranı %8,9 iken, preeklampsi grubundaki ADA
gen polimorfizmi oranı %4,5 olarak saptandı. Preeklampsi grubu ile kontrol
grubu arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark izlenmedi (p>0.05, Odds
ratio: 0.9 [%95 confidence interval:0.485-1.693]). Çalışmanın sonucunda
preeklamptik hastalardaki immünolojik patogenetik süreçlerin bir mediatörü
olarak düşünülen ve pürin metabolizmasının en önemli enzimi olan adenozin
deaminazı üreten ADA genindeki polimorfizmin, preeklamptik hastalarda farklı
olmadığı görülmüştür. Maternal plazma ADA düzeyleri ile ilgili yapılan birçok
çalışma olmasına rağmen, literatürde preeklamptik hastalarda ADA gen
polimorfizmini ilk defa araştıran bu çalışma ile, preeklampsinin patogenezini
için yapılacak ileri dönem araştırmalara bir katkı sağlayabileceğimizi ümit
ediyoruz.

Amiloidoz, sistemik veya lokalize tutulum
gösterebilen, amiloid proteinin ekstraselüler matrikste birikimi  ile karakterize heterojen bir hastalık
grubudur. Lokalize amiloidoz, amiloid birikiminin tek bir dokuya sınırlı
kalması sonucu gelişen ve lokalize bir kitle oluşturması nedeniyle de klinik
olarak maligniteleri taklit edebilen non-neoplastik bir hastalıktır.  Bu çalışmada vezikula seminalis ve duktus
deferens yerleşimli lokalize amiloidoz serimizin sunulması ve bu tümörlerin
klinikopatolojik özelliklerinin literatür bilgileri eşliğinde sunulması
amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmamızda Uludağ Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Tıbbi Patoloji
Anabilim Dalı arşivi taranarak 2013–2018 yılları arasında tanı almış vezikula
seminalis ve duktus deferens yerleşimli lokalize amiloidoz olguları incelendi. Sistoprostatektomi
prosedürü uygulanan 4 olguda sadece vezikula seminalislerde, prostatektomi
prosedürü uygulanan 6 olgunun 5'inde hem vezikula seminalis hem de duktus
deferenslerde ve 1 olguda ise sadece duktus deferenslerde lokalize amiloidoz
saptandı. Olguların tamamında subepitelyal yerleşimli, eozinofilik, amorf,
homojen madde şeklinde gözlenen birikimlere Kongo red boyaması uygulandı. Kongo
red histokimyasal boyaması ile bu alanlarda kiremit kırmızısı boyanma saptandı
ve polarize ışık mikroskobi bakısında elma yeşili refle verdiği tespit edildi. Sonuç
olarak, lokalize amiloidoz çok farklı lokalizasyonlarda saptanabilmekle
birlikte vezikula seminalis ve duktus deferens lokalizasyonunda nispeten
nadirdir. İnsidental saptanmaları nedeniyle biyopsi örnekleri
değerlendirilirken amiloid birikimi açısından da olguların değerlendirilmesi ve
gerekli görülen olgularda Kongo red boyamasının yapılması önem arz etmektedir.

Vertigo
toplumda hem en sık görülen şikayetlerden hem de acil servis ve polikliniklere
en sık başvuru nedenlerinden biridir ve etyolojisine yönelik yapılan çalışmalar
önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışmada, bir üniversite hastanesi acil servisine
başvuran hastalar, 24.10.2017 – 01.05.2018 tarihleri arasında prospektif
olarak incelenmiştir. Vertigo ile başvuran hastalardaki santral etyolojilerin
tespit edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmamızda nörolojik sistemi değerlendirmek
için kullanılan muayene, testler ve tetkikler açısından hastalar
incelendiğinde; Romberg testi pozitif olan hastaların %7,7’de, dismetrisi olan
hastaların %15,8’de ve disdiadokinezisi olan hastaların %16,7’de beyin magnetik
rezonans görüntülemede akut-subakut enfarkt saptanmıştır. Muayenede horizontal nistagmusu olan 5 hastanın hiçbirinde
akut- subakut enfarkt saptanmazken (%0), nistagmusu olmayan 45 hastanın 3’ünde
(%6,7) akut-subakut enfarkt saptanmıştır. Sonuç olarak vertigo hastalarını değerlendirirken, santral
vertigo nedenlerini atlamamak için nörolojik semptomların sorgulanması ve
eksiksiz bir nörolojik muayene yapılması gereklidir.

Production of tomato in the tropics especially in Ghana is beset with lots of setbacks thereby causing low yields per hectare. Greenhouse cultivation systems are promising yet yields of tropical tomato cultivars are hampered by adverse temperature conditions. In order to mitigate this, an experiment was conducted during the extreme summer temperature conditions in the greenhouse at Kashiwanoha Campus of Chiba University, Japan. The study was conducted between May 23, 2018 and September20, 2018. The low substrate volume production system of 500mL in closed recirculated hydroponics (sub-irrigation) method was employed. Three tropical tomato cultivars (Jaguar, Lebombo and Lindo) were evaluated for yields. Plants were spaced at 20cm (4.2 plants m-2) and 30cm (2.8 plants m-2). At 7 and 9WAT, plants were topped at 2nd and 4th nodes respectively. The 3x2x2 factorial in Randomised Complete Block design in three replications was adopted. Some parameter collected were; 1. Morphometrics such as plant height, girth, leaf number and chlorophyll content, days to 50% flowering and fruit set 2. Yield components and fruit quality such as fruit number, marketable yield, yield per area, yield per hectare, percent blossom end rot, fruit TSS, TA, TSS/TA ratio and 3. Dry matter partitioning at last harvest, 11WAT. Results showed that blossom end rot reduced the yields of Jaguar and Lindo almost by 50% while Lebombo recorded less than 1%. Lebombo produced significantly the highest plant dry mass of 125g of which 57.7% was converted to vegetative growth compared to the Jaguar. For Jaguar however, 53.7% of total plant dry mass was allocated to fruits. This in effect was translated to the highest yield of 93tons ha-1 year-1 for Jaguar plants that were pinched at 4th truss in high density planting of 4.2 plant m-2.
