EFFICIENT PUBLIC PARTICIPATION IN THE LOCAL LAW-MAKING PROCESS
Authors: Widiati Ekawestri Prajwalita
Published: October 2018

Getting the public to participate in the government’s policy reflects a sense of control in democracy. However, constructing a mechanism of participation in legal provisions could be dilemma. It is important to realize that involving citizen in local government decision making particularly in law-making process has a fundamental difficulties; the essence of participation itself (openness and transparency) and the need to be efficient. This essay formulated an effective mechanism of public participation by juxtaposing steps in the local legislative process with the criteria of efficiency. This discussion is trying to encompass citizen participation from the initiation of a policy until it is enacted as a local legislation. Then in the next step, it will assess the elements that constitute an efficient drafting process. This article will consider such factors that are; financial cost; human resources or effort; wasted time; risk of failure; progress. The hypothesis is that not all of the means of public participation are efficient. The ideal notion of public participation put weighs on Local Authorities. What is needed to be underlined in this discussion is, to maximize the advantage of citizen involvement, it is important to look at the sequence where it should be held and what is the content. Moreover, the process of public participation should reflects principles namely: discovery, education, measurement, persuasion and legitimization.
DISTINCTION OF CHARACTERISTICS SHARIA AND FIQH ON ISLAMIC LAW
Authors: Thalib Prawitra
Published: October 2018

Islamic law has a value of adaptability and flexibility, but also as a revelation that comes from God Almighty, Islamic law also are rigid, immortal and cannot be personalised way. The hallmark of the dynamics and flexibility combined with purity that can't be fickle that is what makes the uniqueness of the Islamic law as revelation that can answer the entire question of the contemporary that appeared at this time. To understand the Islamic law need to instil an understanding between sharia and fiqh. Of which in respect of Islamic law as revelation from God Almighty, then that's called Sharia, i.e. a set of international rules from God that its nature remains unchanged and immortal, but when looked at Islamic law is dynamic and flexible that it can adapt to the conditions of time and age then that is called fiqh. Which of course is part of the Islamic fiqh and must not be contrary to the Shariah, this article will lead to an understanding of the concept of Sharia and fiqh in General, to find the characteristics of the eternal, timeless until the day of resurrection, as well as dynamic and versatile development of the times.
CARACTERIZAÇÃO SEDIMENTOLÓGICA DA PRAIA DE ARAMBARÉ, LAGUNA DOS PATOS, RIO GRANDE DO SUL, BRASIL
Authors: Oliveira Elaine Baroni , Nicolodi João Luiz , Marinho Chayonn , Machado Júnior Valério Costa
Published: October 2018

A praia de Arambaré, situada na margem oeste da laguna dos Patos, Rio Grande do Sul (RS), é dividida em dois setores (Norte e Sul) pelo arroio Velhaco, que deságua no local. Apesar da Lagoa dos Patos apresentar diferenças sedimentares visíveis ao longo de suas margens, estudos que descrevem os depósitos praiais lagunares e suas diferenças são escassos. Neste contexto, o presente trabalho caracteriza sedimentologicamente a praia de Arambaré, no Rio Grande do Sul. A metodologia utilizada incluiu a coleta e análise granulométrica de 56 amostras distribuídas ao longo da extensão da praia. Os resultados mostraram que as porções ao norte e ao sul do Arroio possuem características distintas e uma tendência de diminuição do grão ao sul. A porção ao norte possui areias grossas e muito grossas, e grau de seleção predominante moderadamente selecionado, enquanto a porção ao sul apresenta areias médias a finas e grau de seleção moderadamente a pobremente selecionados. Essa gradação lateral dos sedimentos é explicada pela direção das ondas (E-NE) que geram correntes longitudinais em direção ao sul. Outra característica comum a ambas as praias é a distribuição polimodal dos sedimentos, a qual é reflexo da herança geológica e das condições energéticas da Lagoa dos Patos
O PAPEL DOS PROCESSOS FLUVIAIS NA CONFIGURAÇÃO DE FUNDOS DE VALE NA BACIA DO RIO PARAÚNA – SERRA DO ESPINHAÇO MERIDIONAL, SUDESTE DO BRASIL
Authors: Carvalho Alex de , Magalhães Junior Antonio Pereira , Filizzola Bernardo Ribeiro , Marques Cristiano Pena Magalhães
Published: October 2018

Este trabalho investiga o papel dos eventos geomorfológicos fluviais na configuração do relevo da bacia do Rio Paraúna ao longo do Quaternário, enfocando a configuração dos fundos de vale. Na área investigada, os fundos de vale geralmente possuem dois ou três níveis deposicionais aluviais (planície de inundação – PI; e terraços – N1 e N2), sendo comum que as PI os N1 encontrem-se embutidos ou encaixados em relação aos níveis mais antigos e escalonados em relação aos níveis em contexto de vertente. O quadro geológico-geomorfológico e as características cronoestratigráficas dos depósitos, cuja datação foi realizada utilizando a metodologia da Luminescência Opticamente Estimulada (LOE), sugerem que, ao longo do Pleistoceno e de grande parte do Holoceno, os vales evoluíram em ciclos alternantes de sedimentação e encaixamento da drenagem. Contudo, o final do Holoceno tem sido marcado pela estabilização do nível de base regional representado pelo Rio Paraúna e pela alteração na dinâmica hidrossedimentar, que tem proporcionado a formação de planícies embutidas nos terraços. As idades dos depósitos obtidas com a datação por LOE permitem supor que as PI correspondem a um evento de sedimentação regional, associado à dinâmica fluvial atual. As PI possuem idades que variam 270 (± 60) e 170 (± 25) anos. Os N1 também parecem estar associados a um evento de sedimentação de escala regional, com uma dinâmica hidrossedimentar diferente da atual, cujas idades variam entre 1.480 (± 250) e 590 (± 110) anos. Os N2 apresentaram idades bastante divergentes. No Córrego da Sepultura, a idade obtida é de 26.350 (± 4.470), tornando esse o N2 mais antigo da área investigada. Nos demais vales, as idades variaram entre 3.000 (± 490) e 4.200 (± 480) anos. Considerando esses dados, pode-se supor que a formação dos N2 ocorreu através da instalação de eventos de sedimentação de escala local, afetando cada vale em momentos distintos. Portanto, é possível propor que a evolução dos vales pode ser dividida em duas fases. A fase mais antiga, que compreende o final do Pleistoceno e o início do Holoceno, provavelmente foi marcada pela instabilidade neotectônica, expressa em uma dinâmica de blocos mais intensa, permitindo a instalação de eventos erosivo-deposicionais distintos em cada vale. A fase mais recente, representada pelos últimos 2.000 anos, deve ter sido marcada pela menor movimentação de blocos no interior da Serra do Espinhaço Meridional, o que pode ter permitido a estabilização do nível de base regional e a regularização de grande parte dos perfis longitudinais dos cursos fluviais.

“Vámonos con todo y chivas”. Sistemas de supervivencia en las culturas ganaderas del norte de San Luis Potosí
Authors: Mora Ledesma María Isabel
Published: October 2018

El altiplano potosino es actualmente una de las regiones caprinas más importantes de México.La ganadería menor ha sido el medio de vida de gran parte de la población de esta región. Son pequeños y medianos ganaderos-campesinos que llevan a cabo la caprinocultura en condiciones de pobreza y adversidad. Dependen de las condiciones territoriales y climáticas, por lo cual practican trashumancias cíclicas para garantizar su reproducción. En este escrito se podrá observar cómo históricamente la organización y producción pastoril ha estado condicionada por factores externos e intervenciones del Estado. Elementos que se contraponen con la propia reproducción social y cultura de los ganaderos, a quienes, por aspectos legales y jurídicos, se les ha condicionado el uso y movilidad territorial, obviando los conocimientos de la organización del rebaño que posee un pastor trashumante. Estos elementos han provocado que la cría de cabras deje de ser una alternativa de vida, lo que ha motivado deshacerse de los rebaños y buscar otro tipo de actividades económicas fuera de la región. No obstante, se mantienen ciertos rasgos de identidad ganadera que se resiste a dejar esta actividad. Por lo que la trashumancia es una forma de vida que se debe analizar como tal, análisis que ayude a las posibilidades de su mantenimiento y sobre todo de la cultura que lleva asociada.
Las ciencias sociales frente al “Triángulo de las Bermudas”. Una hipótesis sobre las transformaciones recientes de la investigación científica y la educación superior en México
Authors: Krotz Esteban
Published: October 2018

El presente trabajo es una contribución al examen del impacto de las políticas públicas (federales y, por ende, nacionales) en México durante el último cuarto de siglo sobre la investigación científca y la educación superior en los campos de las ciencias sociales y las humanidades.Toma como ejemplo representativo la antropología sociocultural. Ésta no es homogénea, pero es ampliamente sabido que tradicionalmente se encuentra marcada por una fuerte vertiente de estudios cualitativos basados en la interacción intensiva con integrantes de los grupos sociales que estudia (llamado “trabajo de campo”), y la cual puede considerarse como polo de un continuo, en el cual se ubican también disciplinas como la historia, las humanidades y la flosofía.
La crónica de finales del siglo XIX en México. Un matrimonio entre literatura y periodismo
Authors: López Pedroza Claudia
Published: October 2018

Este artículo analiza la relación que la crónica mexicana de finales del siglo XIX mantuvo con la literatura y el periodismo, medios que la influyeron transformándola en un género particular y del que todavía hoy en día quedan rastros. Asimismo este texto se apoya de algunas crónicas realizadas por diversos escritores –como Manuel Gutiérrez Nájera, Rubén Darío, Ángel de Campo, entre otros– que participaron en la prensa periódica de la época. El artículo se divide en cuatro partes. En la primera, se especifica la adaptación de la escritura literaria en la prensa; en la segunda se aborda la cuestión de la profesionalización del literato: ¿periodista o escritor?; en la tercera, se reflexiona sobre el rol del cronista y su crónica dentro del contexto político cultural porfiriano; y en la última parte se incluyen algunas conclusiones.

A Review: The Anti-inflammatory, Anticancer and Antibacterial Properties of Four Kinds of Licorice Flavonoids Isolated from Licorice
Authors: Wang Ze-Feng , Liu Jia , Yang Yong-An , Zhu Hai-Liang
Published: October 2018

:

Plants have always been an important source of medicines for humans, and licorice
is a very significant herb in the development of humans. As a traditional herb, it is
widely cultivated in China, Japan, Russia, Spain and India. With the development of organic
chemistry and biochemistry, various chemical ingredients extracted from licorice have been
studied and identified. Among them, many chemical components were considered to have
strong pharmacological activities, such as anti-inflammatory, anti-ulcer, antibacterial, anticancer
and so on. Based on those reports, licorice has attracted the attention of many researchers
in recent years, and they are devoted to discovering the active ingredients and
mechanism of action of active compounds. Licorice flavonoids are one of the main extracts
of licorice root and stem and have many potential biological properties. This paper aims to
summarize the four kinds of licorice flavonoids, including liquiritigenin, isoliquiritigenin,
licochalcone (including licochalcone A and licochalcone B) and glabridin, about their biological
activities of anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antibacterial.
Giardiasis: Characteristics, Pathogenesis and New Insights About Treatment
Authors: Vivancos V. , González-Alvarez I. , Bermejo M. , Gonzalez-Alvarez M.
Published: October 2018

Giardia intestinalis infection causes enterocytes damage and loss of brush border of the
epithelial cells of the intestine that leads to shortening of microvilli and altered epithelial barrier function.
This pathology results in aqueous diarrhoea, steatorrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, vomiting and
weight loss. However, most infections are asymptomatic. The main consequence of Giardia colonization
is nutrients malabsorption. Several families of drugs with good efficacy are used for Giardia treatment,
but sometime dosing regimens are suboptimal and emerging resistance begins to question their
clinical value. Moreover, some of these drugs can cause side effects that result in patient discomfort and
low adherence to the treatment. This paper reviews the drugs currently used for the treatment against
Giardia: the mechanism of action, the efficacy, the normal dosing, side effects and in vitro and clinical
studies. In addition, new therapies against Giardia such as those based on phytochemicals, Lactobacillus
and nanotechnology are collected in this paper, trying to find the ideal treatment for this disease with
maximum efficacy and minimum adverse effects.
Herbal Drug use in Sickle Cell Disease Management; Trends and Perspectives in Sub-Saharan Africa - A Systematic Review
Authors: Okoh Michael P. , Alli Lukman A. , Tolvanen Martti E.E. , Nwegbu Maxwell M.
Published: October 2018

Introduction:

Nigeria has the largest burden of Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) with estimated 100,000 new born affected annually. SCD is a Hemoglobin (Hb) disorder with the major form resulting from the substitution of a polar glutamate (Glu) by non-polar Valine (Val) in an invariant region of Hbβ chain-subunit. Species of Hb found in the sickle cell trait are HbA and HbS in a 60:40 proportion, in SCD only HbS, in the HbC disease only HbC, and in the SC disease it's HbS and HbC in a 50:50 equal proportion.

Objective:

This paper reviews herbal medicines usage in sub-Saharan Africa (sSA) to ameliorate the crisis associated with SCD. The model Hb tetramer suggests a higher membrane affinity of HbS and HbC, promoting dehydration of RBCs, with concomitant in vivo crystallization. Some drawbacks using these herbal drugs include; poor bioavailability and the lack of proper pharmacovigilance monitoring procedures arising from weak governance structure combined with under reporting of herbal usage to physicians were discussed. Probable epigenetic loci that could be targeted using phytomedicines for effective SCD management were also discussed.

Methods:

Using search engines, several databases including Google scholar, PubMed, Academic Resource Index were utilized as a source for relevant publications/ literature. The protein coordinates for the Hb tetramer were obtained from the Protein Data Bank (PDB).

Conclusion:

Manipulation of epigenetics to achieve better SCD management involves careful thinking. Herein, we discuss some epigenetic interactions that could be putatively tweaked with a view of enhancing soluble bioactive small molecular components with the potential to reactivate γ -globin genes, thereby boosting immune response in patient with SCD.

Background:

Refractive error is a common and serious eye disorder that affects more than 153 million people globally. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence and pattern of refractive error among male primary school children in Jazan region, Saudi Arabia.

Methods:

A cross-sectional study was conducted among a randomly selected group of 395 students (aged 6-14 years) in Jazan region, Southwest Saudi Arabia. An optometrist and medical students assessed the refraction error using an autorefractor, a Snellen E chart and retinoscopy.

Results:

The overall prevalence of uncorrected refractive error in either eye was, 22% higher among rural students. The most prevalent refractive error was hyperopia (32.2%) followed by myopic astigmatism (31%) then myopia (17.2%). Next were hyperopic astigmatism (16.1%) and mixed astigmatism (3.5%). The following variables were associated with a higher risk of refractive errors and myopia: living in rural areas, having parents with refractive errors, spending more time on electronic devices and shorter visual distances.

Conclusion:

Refractive error was highly prevalent among primary school children in Jazan, Saudi Arabia. The rural students were more affected by refractive errors, mainly hyperopia. The preschool vision test should be reconsidered, and a periodic vision examination should be applied to detect vision problems as early as possible.
PERSONALITY TRAITS AS PREDICTORS OF PERFECTIONISM
Authors: Bojanić Željka , Šakan Dušana , Nedeljković Jasmina
Published: October 2018

The aim of this study was to explore the role of personality traits as predictors of perfectionism and to determine the existence of gender differences in the ways perfectionism is manifested. The study was conducted on 302 respondents aged 18 to 57. The Perfectionism Inventory scale (PI) used to measure perfectionism assesses lower-order perfectionism facets: Concern Over Mistakes, High Standards for Others, Need for Approval, Organization, Perceived Parental Pressure, Planfulness, Rumination, and Striving for Excellence; and three higher-order facets: Conscientious Perfectionism, Self-Evaluative Perfectionism and Perfectionism Inventory Composite. The Big Five Inventory (BFI), based on the Big Five model of personality, was used for the evaluation of personality traits: Extraversion, Neuroticism, Conscientiousness, Agreeableness and Openness to experience. In determining gender differences, the t-test was used. Men scored higher than women on Organization, Planfulness, and Conscientious Perfectionism, whereas women scored higher than men on Perceived Parental Pressure. Three multiple regression analyses were conducted, one for each of the tested criterion variables, to test the significance of predictors of perfectionism. Predictor variables were the five dimensions of personality traits, and the criterion variables were the dimensions of higher-order perfectionism. All three tested models have statistical significance, and the sum of the predictors, made up of basic personality traits, accounts for one-fifth to one-third of the variance in the criterion measures of perfectionism. Almost all personality traits are shown to be significant predictors of perfectionism, with the exception of Conscientiousness, which is not a predictor of Self-Evaluative Perfectionism. Based on the results, it can be concluded that perfectionists generally keep to themselves, are less tolerant towards others, often worry, are sensitive to their own actions as well as those of others, but also open to new experiences. The obtained results contribute to a better understanding of the social adaptation and functioning of young adults, including young athletes.
El cortometraje latinoamericano moderno. Experimentación estética y vínculos con el campo cultural en Argentina, Cuba y México
Authors: Cossalter Javier
Published: October 2018

Las cinematografías de Argentina, México y Cuba, heterogéneas en su conformación fílmica industrial, advirtieron a mediados de la década de los años cincuenta una renovación productiva y expresiva en diálogo con las transformaciones acontecidas en el terreno cultural. Fue precisamente el cortometraje aquel medio impulsor de la renovación. El presente artículo realiza un análisis comparado de dichos cines a partir de tres textos fílmicos de corta duración y de los respectivos contextos cinematográficos y culturales de producción. Al explorar la corriente del filme sobre arte, el cortometraje evidencia su papel fundamental en la constitución de la modernidad cinematográfica latinoamericana mediante la experimentación estética del lenguaje y de su vínculo semántico con la reconfiguración acaecida en el campo cultural y artístico regional.

Los estudiantes recuerdan a los estudiantes. El 68 mexicano recuperado en movilizaciones juveniles, 1986-2014
Authors: Allier Montaño Eugenia , Vilchis Ortega César Ivan
Published: October 2018

En este artículo se estudia cómo fue recordado el 68 mexicano durante algunas movilizaciones juveniles desarrolladas en las últimas cuatro décadas, En particular se hace referencia al movimiento del Consejo Estudiantil Universitario de 1986-87, la huelga de la UNAM de 1999-2000, el movimiento #yosoy132 y a la movilización por Ayotzinapa de 2014. En cada uno de estos contextos de protesta estudiantil se activó la memoria del 68 en voz de analistas, académicos, medios de comunicación, políticos, exlíderes del 68 y los propios estudiantes que se estaban movilizando. Mientras que para algunos se trataba de acontecimientos que no podían asimilarse, para otros existía un claro vínculo entre ellos, se asumieron como sus herederos y encontraron en aquellos hechos del pasado un referente de lucha y de denuncia contra la represión.

Escribir en el Margen
Authors: Mateo José Manuel
Published: October 2018

Releer el “Plan general de estudios” que abre la segunda parte del volumen Dialéctica de la conciencia nos lleva a observar el rumbo que tomó la actividad intelectual y literaria de José Revueltas después de su participación en el movimiento estudiantil de 1968. Ese plan fechado en octubre de 1970 nos remite a otros materiales escritos desde la cárcel que se caracterizan por su condición efectivamente marginal, íntima y provisoria, sin que ello implique debilidad o penuria. Al contrario: el margen se nos postula como el sitio del acontecimiento y de un saber que no aspira a hegemonizar los espacios, ni a formular programas históricos, tal como pretendían numerosos grupos políticos e intelectuales de la época. Ese plan nos lleva también a un modo de la narrativa revueltiana que pone en juego la acción sustractiva sobre la materia del relato y una tendencia a la densidad intelectual, para mostrar la concreción de la irracionalidad en la historia y cómo el escritor pone en práctica una serie de desplazamientos disciplinarios, formales y conceptuales para seguir pensando, sin temor a invertir, disolver y reconfigurar las categorías. En este camino veremos cómo se encuentran y anticipan entre sí, Revueltas, Hegel y Judith Butler.
Entre la subalternidad y el socialismo indoamericano: Reflexiones sobre un marxismo decolonial
Authors: Aguiar Jórissa
Published: October 2018

Este artículo tiene como principal objetivo analizar de forma crítica, desde una perspectiva marxista, el movimiento decolonial en América Latina. Se trata de un proyecto teórico-político de intelectuales latinoamericanos que surge en la contemporaneidad con el argumento de resistencia al occidental-centrismo y la consecuente renovación crítica de las Ciencias Sociales en el subcontinente. Investigamos cómo dos teorías que son claves para pensar la constitución de nuestro objeto, el movimiento decolonial, se expanden en el mundo académico: la teoría poscolonial y el estudio del sujeto subalterno; así como la forma con la que esas teorías son recibidas en el subcontinente, y han ganando fuerza a partir de la década de 1990, la cual fue marcada por el lanzamiento de la obra Colonialidad y modernidad-racionalidad, de 1992, del peruano Aníbal Quijano (1928-2018). Problematizamos las aproximaciones de los autores decoloniales sobre la concepción de la política marxista de los subalternos a partir de la recuperación de parte del conjunto de la obra político historiográfica de Antonio Gramsci (1891-1937) y J. C. Mariátegui (1894-1930) como eje teórico-metodológico, y teniendo en cuenta que esos autores realizan interpretaciones sobre la cuestión nacional y el desarrollo desigual a partir de las contribuciones de la metodología dialéctica. Asimismo argumentamos que Gramsci y Mariátegui, al estimular una profunda asociación entre el saber intelectual y la voluntad popular, indican elementos que en la actualidad pueden ser presentados por una izquierda decolonial.
Carne y democracia
Authors: Asselborn Carlos
Published: October 2018

El ensayo recupera aportes del pensamiento crítico latinoamericano que se ocuparon de problematizar: a) las relaciones entre imaginarios utópicos alternativos y democracias de “seguridad nacional”; b) las relaciones entre subjetividad aterrorizada y políticas emancipatorias en los procesos de transición a la democracia, y c) las relaciones entre democracias de mercado y sensibilidad social meritocrática y sacrificialista. En tales procesos el achicamiento de la democracia implicó también el achicamiento del cuerpo que somos, naturalizados como individualidad egoísta cuya imaginación quedará circunscripta al realismo político conformista. Una democracia clausurada por la misma democracia se logrará recurriendo a la colonización de la subjetividad corporal.

HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA IN THE COHORT OF VIETNAMESE PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC HEPATITIS C
Authors: Chung N. Н. , Lioznov D. A. , Nikolaenko S. L.
Published: October 2018

Objectives. To describe the clinical and laboratory characteristics of chronic hepatitis C patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to evaluate the effectiveness of antiviral therapy in these patients. Materials and methods. This is a prospective and retrospective study. Data from 1870 patients with CHC observed in the hepatology clinic in Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam) for the years 2010–2015 were analyzed. Results. The average age of detection of HCV infection in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma was 63,1±10,0 years, men — 62,3%. HCC was detected in 9% of patients with chronic hepatitis C (159 people). In 58% of cases, HCC and HCV infection were diagnosed at the same time. In 91,8% patients with HCC, HCV infection was first detected at the age of over 50 years. However, in 46,1% of patients, HCC was diagnosed at stages of the disease, when the possibilities of therapy were limited. Analyzing the effectiveness of antiviral therapy, including sofosbuvir and ribavirin (in 24 weeks), showed that of 75 patients with chronic hepatitis C (genotype 6) without a history of HCC, SVR-24 was registered in 98,7% people; of 11 patients with HCC, only 5 patients (45,5%) achieved SVR-24. Conclusion. Presence of HCC, including after chemotherapy or surgical treatment, is a negative predictor of response to therapy, including sofosbuvir and ribavirin. It is necessary to introduce in Vietnam screening programs for HCV infection to identify patients in the early stages of the disease and to expand access to antiviral drugs for HCV therapy.

The objective of the present study was the analysis of medical and social status of women co-infected with HIV and VHC with the following assessment of their readiness to antiviral therapy of chronic hepatitis C virus infection (CHC) taking into account the mental health and living conditions and sustaining the adherence to antiviral therapy thereafter. Materials and methods. To clarify the social and psychological status, 100 outpatient cards of women co-infected with HIV/HCV were analyzed. The in-depth study with the assessment of the psychosocial and detoxification status and the adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) was held in fifty patients. Results. Most of the women had a long-standing history of HIV infection and HCV. Of these, 78% underwent ART and 84,6% had a high adherence to treatment. The main social problems of the women were connected with their work (34,2%) and family circumstances (26,3%). An increase in the concentration of carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT), the marker of chronic alcohol abuse, was detected in three of 50 patients, and other three of the 50 had this parameter in the zone of unstable values. 72% of the patients showed mental disorders, while more than half of them (60%) had actively used psychoactive substances, and organic symptomatic mental disorder effects were observed in 20% of the patients. Most of the women were in remission on the use of psychoactive substances. Evaluation of the depression and anxiety levels has showed scattered results but in the meantime 54% of the women expressed complaints of asthenic nature, anxious mood was marked in 38% of the patients, 40% of them earlier had been suicidally inclined. Conclusion. Taking into account the social problems in one-third of patients that may negatively affect the treatment of HCV and HIV infection, it is essential to lend complimentary psychological support and assist with solving difficulties before the treatment assignment in order to increase the adherence to treatment. Due to mental health reasons, the patients need continuous observation and periodic condition correction. The majority of surveyed agree ART of CHC at this moment and in the short term but carefully relate to offered treatment regimens and its duration. Given the mental state of the patients, it can be assumed that virus C in women with HIV/HCV co-infection should be treated with direct-acting antiviral agents that do not exacerbate existing disorders. The next issue of the journal .HIV infection and immunosuppression disorders. (2018. Vol. 10, No. 4) will present the results of the study of clinical status features and the prospects for the therapy.

breeding lines were established in the greenhouse under different moisture
levels, obtained from a combination of the amount and number of times of
moisture application, to study genotype-by-environment interaction (GEI) for
root volume (RV), and also probe into the level of moisture imposition, that
would be adequate for screening of genotypes for response to soil moisture
stress. Across the simulated environments, W880-9-32-1-1-12-HB had the
largest root volume of 8.71 cm3, whereas ITA 257 had the lowest (4.89 cm3).
Genotype (G) accounted for significant (P < 0.001) 10.6%, environment (E) (P
< 0.001) captured 79.0%, and GEI (P < 0.001) 10.4% of the total sum of
squares. The GGE biplot captured 82% of the G+GE and clustered the
environments into two groups, with OS 6 being the best for RV in the rainfed
environment (E10). W880-9-32-1-1- 12-HB recorded the best RV under
environments with adequate to limited moisture, but was less stable, and
recorded grain production (13.5 g/plant) close to the best mean of
16.0g/plant by ITA 150 and 14.1 g/plant by IRAT 170. Environments were
generally positively correlated with vegetative and yield traits, but E2
(100% moisture requirement applied once in two weeks) was more
representative of the screening condition while E10 (rainfed) was highly
discriminating, and would be appropriate for discarding genotypes with poor
RV. Overall, E1, E2, E4 and E7 were identified as moisture conditions that
are appropriate for selection of genotypes for general adaptation for RV
within the overall goal of developing drought tolerant rice.

Published: October 2018

IN BRIEF Reducing the risk of diabetes complications requires the delivery of accurate and constructive information for people with diabetes to make informed self-management choices. This article reports on a study assessing the language and framing of risk messages about long-term complications featured in publications produced by North American and Australasian diabetes organizations. Findings highlight problems with the language, content, and framing of messages about risk of long-term diabetes complications presented by diabetes-specific media. These poorly communicated messages may be contributing to distorted perceptions of complications risk and diabetes distress and may interfere with optimal self-management.

Kadar Asam Lemak Bebas (ALB) yang rendah merupakan salah satu indikator kualitas Crude Palm Oil (CPO) yang baik. Apabila Tandan Buah Segar (TBS) kelapa sawit yang lewat matang ikut diolah menjadi CPO, maka kadar ALB selama produksi dapat meningkat. Proses pemanenan menjadi titik krusial yang sangat mempengaruhi tingkat kematangan buah. Selama ini penentuan kematangan TBS kelapa sawit masih dilakukan secara visual yang bergantung kepada kemampuan dan kondisi pemanen buah sawit. Oleh karena itu, perlu dikembangkan suatu metode secara kuantitatif yang dapat memprediksi kadar ALB secara objektif. Pada penelitian ini, akan dikembangankan metode non-destruktif berbasis NIR spectroscopy yang akan dikaji sebagai metode untuk menentukan tingkat kematangan TBS berdasarkan kandungan ALB. Penelitian ini dibagi menjadi tiga tahapan, yaitu akuisisi data reflektansi spektrum TBS dengan NIR Flex N-500, pengukuran kadar ALB, dan pembangunan model kalibrasi dengan menggunakan kemometrik. Dari hasil pengembangan model didapatkan nilai R2 tanpa preprocessing sebesar 0.236, RPD sebesar 1.27 dan PC sebesar 2. Proprocessing First Derivative Savitzky Golay (DG1) memberikan nilai koefisien determinasi tertinggi yaitu sebesar 0.243, dengan nilai RPD sebesar 1.17 dan PC sebesar 2. Akan tetapi kualitas model kalibrasi yang dibangun tetap belum mampu menunjukkan kehandalan dalam memprediksi kandungan ALB tandan buah segar kelapa sawit.
