Messianism and Modernity. Commentary to the Liturgy of History
Authors: Suskiewicz Marcin
Published: July 2021

In his recent book Liturgia dziejów [Liturgy of History], Paweł Rojek argues that Karol Wojtyła was to a large extent influenced by Polish Messianism. Although Rojek’s argument centres around this rather historical thesis, his book is essential reading not only for students of John Paul II’s legacy but anyone interested in the relationship between Christianity and modernity. It is so, because Polish Messianism, according to Rojek, was an early project of Christian modernity. By taking inspiration from the Messianists, Wojtyła was able to combine religious perspective with modern anthropocentrism.
Jean-Paul II : messianisme ou universalisme éthique ?
Authors: Masłowski Michał
Published: July 2021

Paweł Rojek in his book Liturgia dziejów [Liturgy of History] reveals the importance of the Polish romantic messianism for the thought of John Paul II. He carefully defends this tradition against the popular charge of heresy, and argue that in fact it preceded the formulation of Catholic social teaching and some crucial doctrines of the Second Vatican Council. In the longest chapter of his book, Rojek developes “Messianism of Work, ” an idea very close to me. For John Paul II the Eucharist was an inspiring symbol of cooperation of God and man in the history. In this paper, however, I rise some fundamental doubts concerning Rojek’s interpretation. First, he seems to adopt a false theology of nation in which nations are thought as kind of persons. Second, he suggests that John Paul II supported an alleged “third way” between communism and capitalism. Finally, he neglects the universalistic dimension of papal vision. In result, messianism in this interpretation might function not as dynamic universalistic utopia, but rather static, nationalistic ideology.
The historical dispute over Polish Messianism and John Paul II’s thought
Authors: Wawrzynowicz Andrzej
Published: July 2021

The paper addresses the problem of historical role and impact of John Paul II’s teachings on the dispute over Polish messianism which has been consistently present in the Polish literature and philosophy over the past two centuries. The article is an attempt to determine the pope’s actual contribution to the development of the idea of Polish messianism, and evaluate the ultimate significance of this contribution within a broad perspective of the evolution of Polish political thought during the latter part of the twentieth and early decades of the twenty first centuries. The starting point in the discussion is the contemporary historical-philosophical research in this field, and the final conclusions are oriented towards the philosophical qualification of the most recent attempts to revive the messianist ideology on the basis of papal thought.

Introducción: Como consecuencia del proceso de envejecimiento a nivel mundial y, en especial, en la población de adultos mayores, el cual está relacionado con los cambios en el proceso de senescencia, la prevalencia del dolor crónico ha aumentado exponencialmente. La presente investigación tiene como objetivo describir la presencia del dolor, sus características y las estrategias de afrontamiento entre los adultos mayores de 80 años. Materiales y métodos: Se realizó un estudio exploratorio cuantitativo descriptivo mediante la recolección de datos a través del instrumento Cuestionario Breve Del Dolor, además de datos sociodemográficos de 60 adultos mayores de 80 años que residían en el área de influencia de un equipo de Estrategia de Salud de la Familia ubicado en un municipio del centro occidente de Sao Paulo. Resultados: La muestra final contó con 60 adultos mayores con una media de 85.2 años, en su mayoría mujeres (64%), viudas (67%), de piel blanca (82%), jubiladas (67%) y con educación primaria completa (32%). Entre los participantes, el 73% presentó dolor en la última semana con repercusiones importantes en su vida diaria. El dolor se localiza frecuentemente en las extremidades inferiores e interfiere de forma moderada o intensa en la realización de las actividades cotidianas. Se observó que el 48% de los adultos mayores recurren a la implementación de medidas farmacológicas y no farmacológicas para el alivio del dolor con resultados satisfactorios. Conclusiones: El afrontamiento del dolor en esta población requiere un enfoque multifactorial e integral que involucre la atención interdisciplinar y el apoyo familiar. Se supone que la presencia de dolor entre los adultos mayores de 80 años es alta, lo que interfiere con su vida diaria, pero que encuentran alivio mediante la implementación de medidas farmacológicas y no farmacológicas.

The article is devoted to the psychiatrists’ activities in overcoming children’s homelessness in the 1920s in Moscow. The social roots of homelessness as a source of juvenile offences in the capital are shown. Anti-children’s homelessness measures implemented by government and health care system are presented. The problem acuteness of mental disorders in homelessness and young offenders was revealed, the importance of their medical and pedagogical correction for further successful socialization was grounded. We have analyzed the actions of Moscow psychiatrists, employees of National Institute of Protection of Children and Adolescents of People’s Commissariat of Public Health named after 10th anniversary of the October Revolution (N.I. Ozeretsky, M.O. Gurevich, E.P. Radin, etc.) on research of causes and correction of mental disorders in homeless children, humanization of correctional facilities for young offenders, and the organization of the Russian psychiatric service for children. The research of these scientists has played crucial role in the development of social pediatrics. The conclusion about the significant contribution of psychiatrists to overcoming children’s homelessness in Moscow was made.

Shortage of donor corneas is a burning issue in ophthalmology. That is why there is a search for new alternative ways for treating corneal diseases. Decellularization technologies make it possible to create corneal tissue-engineered constructs that can adrress the issue of donor corneal shortage. Objective: to conduct a comparative analysis of effective methods for treating the corneal lenticula and to create an optimized and standardized decellularization protocol. Materials and methods. Corneal stromal lenticules obtained after ReLEx SMILE surgery were chosen for the study. Lenticule parameters: thickness 77–120 microns, diameter 6.5 mm. We used 3 protocols for the treatment of lenticules: 1) treatment with 1.5 M sodium chloride with nucleases (NaCl); 2) 0.1% SDS (SDS); 3) treatment with Trypsin-EDTA solution, followed by double washing in a hypotonic Tris buffer solution with nucleases (Trypsin-EDTA). Optical properties of lenticles were determined spectrophotometrically, where the samples before decellularization served as a control. Fluorescence imaging of nuclear material in the original cryosections was performed using Hoechst dye. The state of collagen fiber ultrastructure was assessed by scanning electron microscopy. The quantitative DNA content in fresh lenticules and in lenticules after treatment was analyzed. Results. All three decellularization protocols effectively removed nuclear and cellular material; the residual DNA content was < 50 ng/mg. However, the Trypsin-EDTA protocol led to significant damage to the extracellular matrix structure, which negatively affected the transparency of corneal tissue-engineered constructs. Transparency of samples for the NaCl protocol was close to native lenticules. Conclusion. To create a corneal tissue-engineered construct, NaCl decellularization protocols appear to be optimized and can be used to treat various corneal diseases.

Background. Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) of the graft in kidney recipients is a rare and difficultto-diagnose post-kidney transplant complication, which can lead to graft loss and death of the recipient. A unified protocol is required for the treatment of this disease.

Materials and methods. A 15-year-old female patient C. diagnosed with stage 5 chronic kidney disease as a result of steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome with hematuria underwent a living related-donor kidney transplantation. On the third day after the operation, laboratory and imaging data showed kidney graft dysfunction. Patient examinations established the cause of the graft dysfunction – idiopathic nephrotic syndrome in FSGS.

Results. For the treatment of recurrent FSGS, the patient had her immunosuppressive therapy converted from tacrolimus to cyclosporin A, and received two 500 mg rituximab injections. Ten sessions of therapeutic plasma exchange (Plasauto Sigma) were performed to remove antibodies to podocytes. During the therapy, diuresis was restored, creatinine and urea levels decreased. Six months after the kidney transplant, graft function was fully restored. Conclusion. The absence of recurrent FSGS within six months during a single course of therapeutic plasma exchange with its subsequent cancellation after restoration of graft function allows to recommend the developed method for the treatment of FSGS in pediatric patients after kidney transplantation.

Atypical presentation of Sjogren’s syndrome with MALT lymphoma mimicking chronic venous ulcers
Authors: Wasilewska Marta
Published: July 2021

Abstract Chronic ulcerations of the lower extremities are quite a common condition amongst adults, most often caused by chronic venous insufficiency. Irrespective of the main underlying cause, chronic limb ulcerations are usually associated with significant symptoms, impairing daily functioning. Improper or delayed diagnosis and inadequate treatment increase the risk of serious complications, including limb amputations. Malignancies can develop secondary to chronic leg ulcers. About 2.4% of ulcers arising from chronic venous stasis undergo malignant transformation. Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common type of malignancy found in chronic leg ulceration biopsies. Basal cell carcinoma, sarcoma, and melanoma have all been documented infrequently. In the case described here, we found lymphoma of the marginal zone of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT), which is an extremely rare cutaneous neoplasm of the lower extremities, but one that may have an association with autoimmune diseases.

ABSTRACT Objective: to evaluate the impact of a quality improvement program in the reduction of errors related to vaccine administration. Method: an intervention study aimed at comparing outcome measures before (Phase I) and after (Phase II) the implementation of a quality improvement program. It was carried out in a Basic Health Unit in the inland of São Paulo from March 2019 to November 2019. In the first phase, there was direct observation by Nursing professionals during the preparation and administration of the doses. In the second phase, an error was selected and subjected to four Plan-Do-Study-Act cycles to test the changes. The following quality tools were also used: root cause analysis, Ishikawa diagram and Pareto diagram. Results: a total of 164 doses of vaccines prepared and administered to 51 users were observed; 527 errors were identified and categorized into 13 types. In 27.7% of the observations made in Phase I, the users/guardians were not informed about potential adverse reactions. The goal of 100% of guidelines was established over an eight-month period, which was achieved in the second Plan-Do-Study-Act cycle and maintained in the third and fourth cycles, with confirmed improvement in the process. Conclusion: the quality improvement approach, based on Plan-Do-Study-Act cycles, contributed to the reduction of errors in the administration of vaccines and the change was sustainable, as it maintained over time.

Published: July 2021

Abstract The fishes of the Haemulidae family are currently allocated to 19 genera with a worldwide distribution in the tropical and subtropical waters of the world’s oceans. Brachygenys and Haemulon are important genera of reef fish in Brazil, as they occur in large shoals, which are both ecologically and commercially valuable. This study identified the Brazilian species of the genera Brachygenys and Haemulon using DNA barcodes. While we found only a single lineage in Brachygenys chrysargyrea, Haemulon melanurum, H. parra, and H. squamipinna, more than one molecular operational taxonomic unit (MOTU) was identified in H. atlanticus, H. aurolineatum, and H. plumieri, indicating the possible existence of discrete populations or cryptic species.

ABSTRACT Green manuring is an important management strategy in tuberous vegetable production systems, since it improves the physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil and, consequently, increases in crop productivity and ecosystem balance. The objective of this work was to evaluate the agro-economic efficiency of carrot cultivation as a function of Calotropis procera biomass amounts incorporated into the soil during two growing seasons in a semiarid environment. The experiments were conducted in an experimental design of randomized complete blocks, with four treatments and five replications. The treatments consisted of four C. procera biomass amounts (20, 35, 50 and 65 t ha-1) incorporated into the soil. In each experiment, one plot with carrot without fertilization (control) was planted, for the purpose of comparison. The characteristics evaluated in the carrot were productivities of total and commercial roots, classified productivity of roots and production economic indicators. The maximum productivity of carrot roots of 35.90 t ha-1 was possible with the incorporation of 47.60 t ha-1 of C. procera biomass into the soil. The maximum net income of R$ 33.744,07 ha-1 in the cultivation of this vegetable it was achieved with the addition of the C. procera biomass amount to the soil of 42.81 t ha-1. The return rates obtained for the carrot cultivation in these optimized quantities were 1.53 and 1.28, respectively, of those achieved in the control treatment (without fertilization).

ABSTRACT Commercial exploitation of the coffee crop is one of the most important activities in the world’s agricultural sector. One of the main phytosanitary problems affecting the crop is the presence of Meloidogyne incognita. Several measures have been tested for the management of this pathogen, albeit with low efficiency. The objective of this work was to quantify the damage and losses and to manage M. incognita race 1 with Pochonia chlamydosporia and Trichoderma harzianum biological nematicides, comparing them to a chemical nematicide. The experiment was carried out in a commercial area naturally infested by the nematode and cultivated with the conilon coffee variety ‘Vitória INCAPER 8142’, clone V02. The treatments were tested with Carbofuran nematicide and with biological nematicides composed of P. chlamydosporia Pc-10 and T. harzianum ESALQ 1306. The biological products were applied alone or in combination. The lowest NPF (final nematode population) occurred in plants treated with P. chlamydosporia and Carbofuran. P. chlamydosporia was the most effective biological agent in the management of M. incognita. There was a reduction in production with an increase in the nematode population. The highest application costs of management methods for M. incognita race 1 per hectare were for three and two applications of Carbofuran and three applications of P. chlamydosporia + T. harzianum. The treatments with lowest application costs were one application of T. harzianum and one application of P. chlamydosporia. It was concluded that all treatments were efficient for the management of M. incognita race 1, causing a decrease in the roots and soil population.

ABSTRACT Maize is one of the main cereals cultivated worldwide and wild poinsettia is among the weeds that cause damage in grain production. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relative competitive ability of maize hybrids in the presence of a wild poinsettia biotype through experiments in replacement series. In preliminary experiments, it was determined the plant population in which the dry mass becomes constant. For the maize hybrids ‘Agroeste’, ‘Morgan’, ‘Nidera’, and ‘Velox’, as well as the wild poinsettia, the population was 20 individuals vase-1. Subsequently, experiments were carried out in replacement series in different combinations of species that varied the relative proportions (100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, and 0:100%). The analysis of the species' competitiveness was carried out using diagrams applied to the replacement experiments and by the relative competitiveness indexes. The height (PH), chlorophyll index (CI), leaf area (LA), and the shoot dry mass (DM) of the plants were evaluated 50 days after emergence. There was competition between the maize hybrids and the wild poinsettia; both were negatively affected, regardless of the proportion of plants, causing reductions in the species' PH, CI, LA, and DM. The competition between maize and wild poinsettia occurs for the same resources in the environment, and interspecific competition caused greater damage to maize and wild poinsettia than intraspecific competition. In general, it was observed that only the hybrids ‘Nidera’ and ‘Velox’ were more competitive than the wild poinsettia.

ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to characterize the commercial quantitative standards of floral stems of gladiolus plants grown under minimum tillage and conventional systems in two harvest seasons in the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil. Experiments were conducted in locations with subtropical climate using soils classified as Typic Dystrudept (Cambissolo) and Typic Hapludox (Nitossolo). Gladiolus plants were grown in beds with intensive soil turning, and under minimum tillage system, in which soil turning was done only in the planting rows. Plants of the cultivars Red Beauty and White Goddess were evaluated in two harvest seasons, Mothers' Day, and Valentine's Day. A completely randomized experimental design with 12 replications was used; the treatments consisted of two harvest seasons and two soil management systems. The flower stem and inflorescence lengths, stem thickness, and number of florets were measured when the plants were at the harvest point to characterize their commercial quantitative standards. These data were used to distribute the stems into four classes (75, 90, 110 and non-marketable). The stem standard of gladiolus plants grown under minimum tillage system and the edaphoclimatic conditions of the state of Santa Catarina in the Mother's Day harvest met the flower market requirements, with most stems classified into the classes 90 and 110. Therefore, gladiolus plants can be grown under minimum tillage system without affecting the flower stem development. This work is the first step to promote the growth of flowers under a conservationist perspective, focused on a more sustainable agriculture.

ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to evaluate the variation in total and particulate organic carbon contents, carbon vertical stratification, and sensitivity index of organic matter fractions in soils with organic residues arranged in alleys in an agroforestry system, with and without use of fire, in the Caatinga biome, in Brazil. The experiment was conducted in a split-plot arrangement with four replications, with the factor fire in the plots, and the factor organic residues in the subplots. The organic residues used consisted of Gliricidia sepium plants; G. sepium plants and carnauba processing residue; G. sepium plants and bio-compost; and G. sepium plants, carnauba processing residue, and bio-compost, which were evaluated in three soil layers. The alleys with carnauba processing residue, G. sepium plants, and bio-compost presented a better maintenance of particulate, and mineral-associated organic carbon contents. Thus, the agroforestry management in alleys using these three residues was efficient for the maintenance of labile and recalcitrant organic matter compartments. Particulate organic carbon was more sensitive to changes in soil management than total organic matter content, in all alleys, presenting higher sensitivity indexes.

ABSTRACT Pasta products are generally formulated based on wheat flour, and the insertion of other vegetable raw materials, such as pequi fruit, can provide increased nutritional value, along with differentiated technological and sensory characteristics. Thus, the aim of this study was to produce pasta with different levels of substitution of wheat flour with pequi pulp flour, to determine its proximate composition and to evaluate its technological and sensory properties. Pastas were produced with 5%, 10% and 15% of wheat flour being substituted by pequi pulp flour, and there was also a control group. Technological analyses (cooking time, volume expansion, water absorption, cooking loss, color difference and chromaticity), chemical analyses (moisture, ash, lipids, proteins and total carbohydrates) and sensory tests (acceptance and intention consumption) were carried out. The main results showed that pequi flour promoted an expansion in volume and water absorption in the product; raw and cooked pasta had more intense colors; moisture, ash and lipid content was increased by using pequi flour; and the sensory test scores for the samples with pequi were high in relation to the control samples, with the formulations with the highest content of pequi flour being the best evaluated. It is concluded that the pastas with pequi flour are promising products for the food industry.

ABSTRACT Little is known about the management of high-yield clonal Coffea canephora in the Amazonian Region, mainly for nutritional aspects and cultivation system efficiency. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of different nitrogen and potassium fertilization rates on coffee grain yield and fertilizer use efficiency of C. canephora trees. An experiment was performed at an experimental field of the Embrapa Rondônia in Porto Velho (RO), Brazil. It was carried out in a split-plot scheme with six doses of 20-00-20 NPK formulation (0; 250; 500; 1,000; 2,000; and 3,000 kg ha-1) and three years of evaluation (2014, 2015, and 2016). An interaction between fertilizer dose and crop year was observed. Fertilizer doses showed an exponential behavior, with maximum yields of 51, 114, and 79 bags ha-1 at 3,000 kg ha-1 in the crop years of 2014, 2015, and 2016, respectively. Such a behavior impacted average and accumulated yields in the three harvest seasons. As for crop year effect within each fertilizer dose, the highest yield was reached in the second harvest after pruning for renewal of orthotropic stems. Moreover, fertilizer use efficiency by plants decreased exponentially, with the highest value at the lowest dose. Increasing doses of 20-00-20 formulation promoted an exponential increase in grain yield but decreased its use efficiency by C. canephora plants. This management also stimulated a strong biannual production.

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the thermal processing of pre-initial diets on performance, morphometry of the organs of the digestive system and nutrient digestibility in broiler chicks. The test sample consisted of 180 broiler chicks distributed in a completely randomized design, with two treatments, six replications of 15 birds each. The treatments consisted of pelleted feed (70°C) and extruded feed (150°C). The metabolism test was realized from 4 to 7 days of age, while the performance and morphometry of the organs of the digestive system were evaluated at 7 and 21 days of age. The data were submitted to analysis of variance. At seven days of age, chicks that consumed extruded feed had lower feed intake, less development of digestive tract organs, lower nitrogen absorption rate, dry matter, in addition to less metabolizable energy compared to pelleted feed. Likewise, at 21 days of age, chicks that consumed extruded pre-starter feed performed worse than pelleted feed. The conclusion is thus reached that feed extruded at 150 ° C for broiler chicks in the pre-initial phase, results in lower nutrient digestibility and an inferior development of the organs of the digestive system at 7 days of age and worse performance at 21 days.

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate diets substituting corn grain with passion fruit peels on the consumption, ingestive behavior, digestibility of diets and sheep performance. A total of 20 sheep were used, confined in individual pens, fed twice a day, with diets which included passion fruit peels in the proportions of 0; 25; 50; 75 and 100% replacing corn grain. The corn grain represented 70% of the dry matter of the diet and the passion fruit peels were supplied in dehydrated form. The experimental design was completely randomized with five treatments and four replicates. The data were submitted to analysis of variance and regression analysis at the significance level of 5%. There was a linear increase in dry matter consumption with an increase of 3.89 g for each inclusion level of passion fruit peel. The apparent digestibility of dry matter decreased and neutral detergent fiber increased linearly with the substitution of corn grain with passion fruit peels. The feeding, rumination, leisure and water intake times presented averages of 3.74; 2.92; 16.92 and 0.42 hours, and were not influenced by the diets (P>0.05). The average daily weight gain was similar for the animals in the different diets and consequently the final weight presented average values of 0.226 kg day-1 and 32.1 kg, respectively. The inclusion of passion fruit peels in the sheep diet is an interesting alternative because even with the reduced dry matter digestibility, it increased the consumption and promoted similar weight gains.

Abstract The present study investigated the metazoan parasite community in Pimelodus ornatus from the Amazon River, in the state of Amapá (Brazil). Of 71 fish examined, 70.4% were parasitized by Demidospermus sp. (Monogenea), Cucullanus pinnai, Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus) inopinatus and Contracaecum sp. (Nematoda) and plerocercoids from Proteocephalidae gen. sp. (Cestoda). The dominance was of nematode species such as Procamallanus (S.) inopinatus and Contracaecum sp. The parasites showed a highly aggregated dispersion and a predominance of hosts infected by one species of parasite. The parasite community was characterized by a low Shannon diversity index, low evenness and low species richness. The richness of parasite species, Shannon's diversity index, abundance of P. (S.) inopinatus and Proteocephalidae gen. sp. showed a positive correlation with the length of the hosts. Therefore, the size of the hosts had an influence on the parasite community and infracommunities, as well as their intermediate position in the food web. This is the first record of P. (S.) inopinatus and Contracaecum sp. for P. ornatus.

Abstract: Aim The application of deconstructive approaches in aquatic ecology has been increasing recently. Especially for phytoplankton, some functional classifications summarize similar traits of a group of species to understand organisms’ response to landscape variability. One of these approaches deals with phytoplankton functional classification based on morphology (MBFG - Morphologically Based Functional Groups). Focusing on this approach, we systematic mapping the scientific literature to reveal this functional framework´s applications for freshwater phytoplankton. Methods For this study, we selected from the Thomson ISI Web of Science database all articles published between 2010 and 2018 dealing with MBFG. We recorded 179 manuscripts citing the phytoplankton functional classification based on morphology and, among them, we excluded three due to lack of access to information. Results A clear temporal trend occurred with an increase in citations involving the morphological approach, with Brazil, Uruguay, and China as the countries with the highest number of studies. Of the total records, 60 manuscripts applied morphological classification in their studies, of which 23 manuscripts comprised comparative studies with other functional approaches. Most applications were for phytoplankton in lakes, with biomass being the most used metric for framing taxa in MBFG. The most often recorded groups are MBFG IV (medium-sized organisms without specialization), VII (large mucilaginous colonies), and III (large filamentous organisms with aerotopes). Conclusion This study showed an increasing trend in the number of studies that used the functional approach based on MBFG. We believe that deconstructive approaches, such as MBFG, help assess issues of interest in phytoplankton ecology.

Authors: PANPALLI ATEŞ Mehlika
Published: July 2021

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the demographic characteristics, clinical presentation, antibody, and electrophysiological characteristics of patients with the diagnosis of Myasthenia Gravis (MG).

Materials and Methods: The demographic characteristics, clinical presentation, antibody, electrophysiological and radiological (thoracic tomography) characteristics of the patients who were followed in the Neuromuscular and Muscular Diseases Polyclinic of the hospital between 2014-2019 were analyzed.

Results: The mean age of the patients was 53.8±16.67 years. The mean disease duration was 4.8±5.05 years. Ptosis was the most common complaint in 79% (n=109) of our patients. The number of patients followed as pure ocular MG was 61.6% (n=85). There were 26 patients who presented with ptosis or diplopia at the first presentation and follow-up generalized MG with bulbar findings and weakness. Acetylcholine receptor antibody (AntiAChRAb) positivity was found in 78.3% (n=108) of the patients and thymus pathology was detected in thorax tomography in 37.7% (n=52).

Conclusions: The initial complaint provides little insight into the course of the disease. The important factor is clinical follow-up. Although MG treatment is known, the pathophysiology of MG remains to be elucidated, and other autoimmune conditions cause changes in treatment choice. Clarifying the pathophysiology of MG will enable the development of more effective diagnostic and treatment methods.

Egy alapvetően biológiai terminológia, mint az adaptáció katonai használata komoly kihívás a szó hadtudománytól különböző tudományágakban kialakult mögöttes tartalma miatt. Az adaptáció, vagy magyarul alkalmazkodás olyan dinamikai elemeken nyugszik, mint a kialakulás és az önszerveződés. Meghatározó szerepet játszik benne a környezet, jellegét tekintve pedig nem központosított. Ezek és más sajátosságok az alkalmazkodás katonai terminológiaként való használatát nehezítik, ezért annak alapos vizsgálata indokolt. A tanulmányban a szerző erre tesz kísérletet.

A honvédelmi szervek hivatásos állománya szakmai tevékenysége során enormis megterheléseknek, szélsőséges egészségkárosító hatásoknak van kitéve. Ilyen tényező a szervezetet érő egyoldalú statikus terhelés, mely komoly kihatással van a keringési, a mozgató, a légző, de még az emésztőrendszer működésére is. Hipotézisünk, hogy az egyensúlyozó képesség fejlesztése alkalmas a statikus terhelés hatásainak csökkentésére. A díszelgő katonák és a díszőrök a napi munkavégzés során többségében statikus, egyoldalú terhelésnek vannak kitéve. Ezért hipotézisünk igazolására a 32. Nemzeti Honvéd Díszegység állományának tagjainál végeztünk egészségfelmérő, valamint a koordinációs és az egyensúlyozó képesség felmérését célzó kutatást. Tudományos közlemény-sorozatunkban a kutatás, ezen belül a felmérés, a fejlesztés menetét, részleteit kívánjuk bemutatni, a szakmai következtetések levonásával.

The investor must be able to use instinct to evaluate when to sell and buy stocks. This is, of fact, a weakness for inexperienced investors, in addition to the decision's inaccuracy and the time it takes to evaluate a slew of ineffective results. So that, a support system is needed to help the investors make decisions in buying and selling shares. This support system creates an online analysis curve display through text data in the BEI stock price application. The data processing based on pattern recognition will be carried out so that a buying and selling decision can be made to calculate the profit and loss by investors. As the first step of the whole system, this research has built an image-to-text conversion system based on OCR (Optical Character Recognition) that can convert the non-editable text (.jpg) to be editable (.text) online. After obtaining this .text data, the will used the system in further research to analyze stock buying and selling decisions. According to research on eight companies, the OCR-based image to text conversion has a 96.8% accuracy rate. Meanwhile, using Droid serif, Takao PGhotic, and Waree fonts at 12pt font sizes, it has 100 percent accuracy in Libre Office.

Every region in Indonesia has a very large diversity of banana species, but no system records information about the characteristics of banana varieties. The purpose of this research is to make an encyclopedia of banana types that can be used for learning by classifying banana varieties using banana images. This banana variety classification system uses image processing techniques and artificial neural network methods as classification methods.The varieties of bananas used are pisang merah, pisang pisang mas kirana, pisang klutuk, pisang raja and pisang cavendis. The parameters used are color features (Red, Green, and Blue) and shape features (area, perimeter, diameter, and length of fruit). The intelligent system used is the Backpropagation method and the Radial Basis Function Neural Network. The results showed that both methods were able to classify banana varieties with an accuracy rate of 98% for Backpropagation and 100% for the Radial Basis Function Neural Network.
