Immunogenic Cell Death: An opportunity for Clinical Oncology?
Authors: Aguilar-Noriega Daylen , Perea Silvio
Published: November 2019

Apoptosis was initially seen as a kind of silent cell death with non-induction of the immune response 1. However, in the recent past, it has been seen that death induced by either infections or actions of certain agents can elicit a specific immune response, namely immunogenic cell death (ICD)2. This ICD activates the immune system against antigens associated with deceased cells with the concomitant exposure and releasing of the so-called damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) by dying cells3. Four principal DAMPs related to ICD have been identified (but not limited to): the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone calreticulin (CRT), heat shock proteins (HSPs), adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and high mobility group box-1 (HMGB-1)4.

The intensity of symbiotic relationships between arbuscular mycorrhizae and differentiated tree species regarding their age group and plant family in semi-arid Andine dynamical agroforestry system
Authors: Schunevitsch Maxim , Lichtenauer Philipp , Medrano Mercado Nora , Stadler-Kaulich Noemi
Published: November 2019

As research on mycorrhiza progress and scientific knowledge about organic partnerships becomes more profound, mycorrhiza symbiosis is considered an essential parameter for the vitality of ecosystems. Concerning polyculture cultivation systems, the implementation of growth-promoting and nutrient-securing symbiotic partners is a crucial step towards preserving the dynamism of involved plants and thus decisive for the yield and success of such cultivation systems. In particular, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) show a considerable tendency in encouraging and maintaining a supply of water and nutrition for plants. Therefore, it was examined how intensive partnerships between AMF and trees in the semi-arid, dynamic agroforestry system of ‘Mollesnejta’ exist and how the species, family and age of trees are related to the respective degree of mycorrhizal intensity. This information is in turn used to decrypt relationships between nutrient provision and nutrient security in agroforestry systems and to improve them especially concerning current climate change. The results reveal that in the examined agroforestry system arbuscular mycorrhizal partnerships were found on all ten considered tree species in this study in the varying intensity of the mycorrhizal structure dependent on tree species and their plant family. Nevertheless, no statistical correlation between the number of mycorrhizal elements according to primary hyphae, ramification or vesicles about the age of the trees could be proven in this study.

Published: November 2019

The pancreatic pseudocyst is one of the late local complications of acute pancreatitis, for the management of this entity, there are multiple strategies that range from expectant management, minimally invasive therapy and surgical resolution. Since surgery is the definitive treatment, the laparoscopic approach takes force as a strategy in selected patients. A 47-year-old female patient with multiple comorbidities with pancreatitis of bile origin with subsequent development of pancreatic pseudocyst in whom surgical resolution with a laparoscopic approach is decided. Discussion: The laparoscopic approach shows favorable results; with a procedure duration of 170 minutes on average; the open technique shows several complications: pancreatic fistulas in 40%, enteric fistulas of 20%, incisional hernia of 25%, and mortality of 9 to 25%; Laparoscopic gastrocystostomy allows a much wider communication between the cyst and stomach compared to the endoscopic approach, safe hemostasis and better management of complications. Surgery for the treatment of pseudocyst continues to be the cornerstone; The laparoscopic approach shows the advantages of laparoscopy, with lower morbidity rates compared to open procedures.

Authors: Quesada-Alvarado Francisco , Campos-Calderón Fernando
Published: November 2019

Introduction: Current research of fish locomotion is focused on creating better underwater vehicles and how environmental stress factors modify swimming. Objective: To study the relation of morphometric characteristics with burst swimming in six representative species of continental fishes from Costa Rica. Methods: We measured total length, standard length, height and area of the tail of 38 individuals from six species. We used a Kruskall-Wallis test and a Boxplot graphic to compare species; and a PCA test to identify body variables that influence swimming. A Non-Metric Dimensional Scaling (NMDS) test was done for species and position in the water column. Results: The fastest swimming corresponded to A. nigrofasciata (9,29cm/s), while S. salvini (1,65cm/s) was the slowest. Burst swimming speed is influenced by body size and tail type, and differed with position in the water column, being surface species the fastest. Conclusions: Morphological and ecological characteristics determine differences in burst swim.
Fra ensomme svaler til fugler i flokk – skolebaserte praksisplaner som redskap i utvikling av felles forståelse i praksisskolen
Authors: Fauskanger Janne , Hanssen Brit , Helgevold Nina
Published: November 2019

Praksislærere opplever at de alene har ansvaret for lærerstudenters praksisopplæring, og at praksisskolerektorer mer tar et administrativt enn et faglig ansvar for praksisopplæringen. Med dette som utgangspunkt diskuteres her skolebaserte praksisplaner som redskap i utvikling av felles forståelse av å være praksisskole. Utvikling av de skolebaserte praksisplanene inngikk som en del av en videreutdanning for praksislærere, hvor noen utvalgte begrep ble knyttet til arbeidet med disse planene. Basert på analyse av skriftlige svar på en spørreundersøkelse tyder resultatene på at skolebaserte praksisplaner kan være ett viktig redskap i utvikling av en felles forståelse av det «å være praksisskole».
English abstract
English title: School based field practice plans as tools in developing a common understanding of being a practice school
Research concludes that mentor teachers find they solely are responsible for student teachers during field practice, and that field practice school principals take an administrative rather than a professional responsibility for student teachers. As part of a course on mentoring, mentor teachers and the practice school principal collaborated on developing a school-based plan for field practice, focusing on some selected concepts. Based on written answers to a survey, the results indicate that school-based field practice plans can be a valuable tool in developing a common understanding of «being a field practice school».
Trisomía parcial del cromosoma 22, a propósito de un caso
Authors: Serrano Concha Gianna Kemberlee , Salazar Carvajal Beatriz Urbana
Published: November 2019

El cromosoma 22 representa el 1,6-1,8% del total del ADN genómico. La trisomía 22 es una aneuploidía frecuentemente letal y una de las causas más comunes en los abortos espontáneos, su supervivencia es extremadamente limitada. En algunos casos el trastorno afecta únicamente a algunas células, mientras que el resto tiene una dotación cromosómica normal (mosaicismo), en la mayoría de estos pacientes la supervivencia es más elevada y las malformaciones menos graves. La inconsistencia en cuanto al fenotipo en los casos reportados, provoca confusión en cuanto al diagnóstico como una entidad específica, se pueden asociar malformaciones cardiacas, renales, entre otras. Pero la mayoría de las veces presentan características individuales y únicas por lo que es difícil estimar su incidencia dado que frecuentemente se queda sin diagnosticar. El objetivo del presente estudio es evidenciar la influencia fenotípica que nos lleva al diagnóstico diferencial de esta enfermedad con los diferentes síndromes morfo genéticos involucrados en la alteración del cromosoma 22. Se presenta un caso clínico cuya descripción fenotípica esta poco relacionada a la detección genética realizada durante su estudio; cabe referir entonces que con el advenimiento de las técnicas modernas de bandeo cromosómico, ha sido posible determinar citogenéticamente la trisomía 22 en unos casos, pero no en otros con fenotipo similar; destacamos así la importancia de la ecografía en el primer trimestre de la gestación como método complementario para la detección, ya que únicamente el 3% de las parejas tienen factores de riesgo identificables antes del embarazo, y el estudio fundamentado en la edad materna identificaría sólo el 30% de las trisomías autosómicas.

Published: November 2019

Sleep is an important activator of epileptiform activity, with epileptiform discharge (ED) probability varying among sleep stages. The aim of our study was to analyze the association between epileptiform activity and sleep stages or wakefulness in adults with temporal discharges. We analyzed 32 long-term overnight EEG recordings. All focal discharges were marked, and the entire sleep was staged. Absolute general epileptiform discharge index (EDI), defined as a ratio of total ED number to the full recording time in hours, as well as absolute EDIs for REM, N1, N2 and N3 stages were calculated. The majority of patients (28) had the highest EDI in N3. EDI increased significantly while sleep progressed to deeper stages, reaching its peak in N3. In REM sleep, EDI sharply declined (p < 0.01) reaching the levels of wakefulness. Increasing synchronization of cortical neurons is thought to be the major mechanism of EDI rise in NREM sleep. Hence, N3 seems to be the most sensitive stage to capture EDs, which highlights the importance of deep sleep recording in patients with temporal epilepsy.

Published: November 2019

Discourses of Productive waqf in Indonesia has appeared since Act Number 41 Year 2004 concerning Waqf has been published. This discourse requires the management of waqf to be more productive at several institutions of waqf in Indonesia including pesantren, because all this time the management of waqf looks consumptive. this paper will discuss about what are the problems in implementation of productive waqf in Pesantren. This paper is library research.  The data is taken from the book reference that explaining the pesantren experience of several pesantren such as Pesantren Gontor, Pesantren Tebuireng and Pesantren Ash-Shiddiqiyyah. The data that has been collected would be analyzed descriptively qualitative. The results of this research show that the problems of implementation of productive waqf in pesantren can be described as follows: Firstly, the majority of the positions of waqf pesantren are not yet fully owned by the public institution, so that the community is less concerned to participate in the development of waqf assets of pesantren. Secondly, The unclear status of the outcome of waqf, whether it belongs to the institution of waqf automatically or it belongs to the owner of the pesantren. Thirdly, The manager of waqf pesantren (naẓîr) is less professional. The majority of them are still patterned in the paradigm of consumptive waqf thinking, besides that the selection process of the manager of waqf perfunctorily make their sense of responsibility relatively reduced

Authors: Ghozali Habib M
Published: November 2019

Sharia banking industry thrives in various countries in the world. It develops not only in Muslim-majority countries but also in various Muslim-minority countries. The growth of sharia banking assets is generally 50% faster than the growth of the world financial industry market. Indonesia and Malaysia are the two countries in the Southeast Asian region the sharia banking development rates of which are very fast.  Until the end of 2017 its growth can reach 50%. There are some efforts done by both countries to boost the rate of movement. For instance, the sharia banking institutions in Indonesia are targeting approvals in various regulations, in addition to improving services, as well as expanding network expansion. While in Malaysia, the strategy is done through strengthening infrastructure, increasing human resources, and also the application of moderate Islamic understanding. The sharia banking industry in each of these two countries has advantages and bright future prospects. More especially, Indonesia has wider potential of the region and larger population. Therefore, the future development of sharia banking industry is much more promising.
Effect of Frozen Storage and Modified Atmosphere Packaging Followed by Cold Storage on Some Quality Characteristics of Semi-Dried Persimmons
Authors: KARACA Hakan , KURŞUN Elif
Published: November 2019

Dried persimmon is a relatively new product for

Turkish consumers. Thus, the quality characteristics and storage conditions of

this product have not yet well-defined. In this study, the effect of frozen

storage and modified atmosphere packaging (100% N2 and 30% CO2+70%

N2) followed by cold storage on microbiological, physicochemical and

sensory quality of semi-dried persimmons was investigated. Both modified

atmosphere packaging and frozen storage were effective in suppressing the

growth of total aerobic mesophilic bacteria, yeast and mold. Increase in L color

values, an indicator of sugar migration, was observed in air and modified

atmosphere packaged samples. Increases in a and b color values were recorded

during frozen storage probably due to ongoing browning reactions. Moisture

contents and firmness values merely changed during storage and were not

affected by any of the treatments. Sensory analysis results revealed that

color, taste and general acceptability scores of modified atmosphere packaged

and freeze-stored samples were significantly higher than those of air packaged

ones. Therefore, both modified atmosphere packaging and frozen storage can be

recommended to maintain the quality characteristics of semi-dried persimmons.

Published: November 2019

The regional regulation issued by the Provincial Government Number 2 of 2012 defines that Tri Hita Karana is a Hindu philosophy explaining the three things which contribute to prosperity. Therefore, the promotional media of tourism should be ideally based on the ideology of Tri Hita Karana. However, the fact shows that it has been marginalized in the promotional media of the Bali cultural tourism. In relation to this, three main theories are used in the present study. They are the theory of deconstruction, the theory of practice, and the theory of social reality construction. The qualitative, descriptive, and interpretative methods were employed to analyze the data, which were collected through in-depth interview, observation and documentary study.

            Based on the result of the study, it can be concluded that the capitalistic ideology, the ideology of cultural dualism, the ideology of consumerism, the ideology of commercialism, the ideology of totalitarianism, and the ideology of pseudo-social responsibility have been responsible for the marginalization of the ideology of Tri Hita Karana in the promotional media of the Bali cultural tourism. The system used to deconstruct the promotional media of the Bali cultural tourism involves the government, private companies, and the graphic design consultants. They are oriented towards their respective ideology and interest. The ideology and interest-oriented promotional media of the Bali cultural tourism affect the image of Bali as a tourist destination. The implications are as follows: Bali is an area of the culture of tourism; it is an area where postmodern people live; it is an area  where glocalization takes place; it is an area where modern spirituality develops; it is also an area where the identity of the Balinese people and culture is shown not to be in accordance with the fact.

It has been strongly integrated into the elements of the people’s performing art and culture in every region of Bali. In Bali it reflects the humanity-oriented culture. It can be classified as the sacred, magical, and religious performing art and is performed as part of the traditional and religious rituals in Bali.

This present study is intended to explore, identify, comprehend and describe the phenomenon of the bedekeh ritual performed by the Akit ethnic group in Riau Island, Bengkalis Regency, Riau Province in the era of globalization. The Oang Akit (those who belong to the Akit ethnic group) believe that all diseases are believed to result from the interference of invisible spirits or what is locally referred to as Antu (Hantu=Ghost), their ancestors, the treatment of other people or what is referred to as disantet (black magic practice), and curses. The bedekeh ritual is a cultural important element; it is not only performed to stimulate emotion but it is also performed to make the relationship among people and between people and the cosmos in harmony. Globalization has developed human life and changed the people’s way of life, including the Akit ethnic group.  The data in the present study were collected using the techniques of observation, in-depth interview, library research, and documentation.

Based on what was explored and the method used to analyze the data, it was found that the bedekeh tradition is still performed by the Akit ethnic group; however, its existence is getting marginalized by the internal and external factors. The modern epistemology (Modern-Western) in which rationality is considered more important than other things has caused the therapy performed by the Akit ethnic group to shift. Hegemony resulting from the penetration of the culture belonging to the non Akit ethnic groups has also caused the bedekeh ritual to be marginalized.

Authors: Mardika I Made
Published: November 2019

It is important to deconstruct the development of the mass wooden statue industry at Kemenuh, Sukawati District, Gianyar, Bali. The reason is that the artisans are presumed to have been marginalized by capital strength. This present study is intended to answer the ideology which has inspired the mass wooden statue industry, the power practice performed by the agencies, and its implication on the life of the artisans. The study used the approach of cultural studies and the critical social theories. The data were analyzed qualitatively.

The result of the study shows that, first, the ideology which has inspired the artisans to develop the mass wooden statue industry is the ‘great’ capitalistic ideology which is mixed with the Balinese ideology, causing the synthetic and pluralistic ideology to be formed. Second, the hierarchical and symmetrical power practice performed by the agencies. The capital owners, distributors and consumers dominate and exploit the artisans. Third, the mass cultural industry has economically, socially and culturally affected the life of the artisans. However, their economy has been better but they are getting marginalized; their gender equality is getting stronger but their traditional social structure is getting instable; and their art creativity has improved but the connotation of their mass culture is getting lower.
