Fiber enrichment of pasta: metabolic effects and diet adherence in obese subjects
Authors: Hassan Odette Misa Sonia , Di Folco Ugo , Nardone Maria Rosaria , Tubili Flavia , Tubili Claudio
Published: October 2019

BACKGROUND:

Low calorie diets are often poorly sustainable in the long term. Soluble Fiber (SF) slows gastric emptying, diminishes meal energy content and increases satiety. Adding SF to popular foods as pasta could be a good solution to improve diet adherence and metabolic parameters of obese patients.

OBJECTIVE:

to evaluate the effects of low – calorie diets including SF-enriched pasta in obese subjects on self-referred satiety, weight and metabolic parameters (glucose, insulin, glycated haemoglobin- HbA1c, plasma lipids) in a 3-months follow up.

METHODS:

30 obese patients (6M/24F, aged 43,4±10.3 years; BMI 33.4±1.56) were randomized into 2 groups; two isocaloric diets were prescribed: a diet with a serving of SF (chicory inulin 2%) enriched and lignin extruded pasta was given to the 1st group (A) every day; the 2nd group (B) had common semolina pasta. Five follow up visits with anthropometric and metabolic measurements were planned. Plasma OGTT (glucose, insulin), HbA1c, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides were determined at baseline (T0) and at the end of the study (T1, after 3 months). Overall weight loss and drop out were evaluated. Subjects were asked to report their feeling of satiety and appetite at every visit using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS 10 CM). Treatment satisfaction had been evaluated by a questionnaire about the characteristics of SF pasta (appearance, colour, texture, stickiness, flavour and taste) with another VAS.

RESULTS:

The weight loss was kg 6.29±3.62 in group A and kg 1.87±1.66 in group B ( p < 0.0002); one patient dropped out in group A, 3 in group B. The satiety and appetite VAS score were 7.6±1.1 (t1) in group A and 5.0±1.0 in group B. Group A was more satisfied of the diet plan taste (score of 8,66±0,97 vs. 1.09 ( p < 0.01); 9,14±0.86 of patients of the A group and 6.07±2.05 ( p < 0.01) of the B group declared they have eaten “enough”. HbA1c ( p < 0.0001) and insulin level after glucose load (at 120’) decreased significantly more in the group A than in group B ( p < 0.002). The diet did not affect lipid profile either in Group A and Group B after three months.

CONCLUSION:

SF enrichment and lignine extrusion of pasta increase satiety and diet adherence, and improve metabolic parameters.

Abstract. The aim of our research is to study the sources of arterial vascularization and spatial organization of the microcirculatory bed of the protein section of the oviduct in the female of the Italian goose. The objects of the study were 5 carcasses of adult geese, aged 160-180 days. The female goose oviduct is a unique organ with a special blood supply, which is associated with its considerable length and the presence of five departments. One of the longest parts of the oviduct is the protein section (Magnum), having extraorgan arterial sources of vascularization in the form of cranial, middle and caudal ovarian arteries, departing from the descending aorta, the Intraorgan channel of the protein section is built on a General principle and is represented by surface and deep arterial networks, and plexuses of arterial vessels. The surface network of arterial capillaries is located in the serous and muscular membranes, bringing blood to the organ, and deep capillaries located in the submucosal layer may perform a trophic function. Therefore, in the protein section there are several floors of arterial vessels (serous-muscular, intermuscular and muscular-mucous). Some artery arising from intraorganic vascular bed, are some way beyond, becoming tributaries paravenozhnykh of the capillaries, consequently, the available arteriolo-venous fistula should be considered as shunt devices to discharge some portion of the arterial blood into the veins. The special nature of the distribution of vessels is revealed in the muscle membrane of the protein section, when they form between themselves in the initial section of the arc of large size, and later consist of arcs of smaller size. Each segment of the arteriol-venous anastomosis provides blood to a certain area of the muscle and has a strictly ordered pathway of intraorgan blood flow relative to tissue structures. The resulting data reflect the overall pattern of sources of vascularization in the region of the extrahepatic portion of the course and intraorganelle branching of the arteries the protein section, forming a common morphological relationship between adjacent section.

Published: October 2019

Background: Diabetes Mellitus type 2 (T2DM) has been becoming a globalworld health problem affecting countries with different income level (Mogre,Johnson, Tzelepis, Shaw, & Paul, 2017). The low level of compliance and theincreased level of the diabetes distress has been closely associated with destituteglycemic control. Some diabetes-specific psychological variables may beimportant for psychological status of patients and glycemic control to theachievement of individual glycemic targets (Indelicato et al., 2017). Therefore,alexithymia – psychological clinical characteristic of the reduced emotionalcomponent that could have been associated with the metabolic syndrome inpatients with type 2 diabetes, for example (Lemche, Chaban, & Lemche, 2014). Itis important to consider the clinical evaluation of mental aspects in patients withT2DM, however, in order to preventing potentially unfavorable self-care behaviorleading to complications of this disease, including a decrease in the quality of lifelevel (Conti et al., 2017). Patient's level of the quality of life is the one of mainimportant components of treatment adherence and clinical decision making forimproving the effectiveness of therapy (Chaban, Khaustova, & Bezsheiko, n.d.).The low level of medication compliance and quality of life could have beenaddicted in consequence to non-adherence and respectively – inefficiency oftherapy of these patients. Therefore, multidisciplinary connection – involvingmental health care specialists can potentially improve treatment effectiveness(Kogut at al., 2018).
Artificial Intelligence in Indian Irrigation
Authors: Kumar Sunil
Published: October 2019

Agriculture Automation is the major concern for India owing to the agricultural complexities resulting in decreased production of the crop and farmers commit suicide due to the heavy loss incurred . India is considered to be an agricultural country where farming and agriculture is the main occupation throughout. With the increase of population, the food demand is ought to increase manifold, thereby, the need of advanced agricultural systems has been elevated. It is imperative to apply artificial intelligence in irrigation process to increase the production. Various implementations have been made with the help of Artificial Intelligence and other Expert Systems. This research paper focuses on the use of Artificial Intelligence in Indian Irrigation. Further it focusses on the blending of embedded technology and Artificial Intelligence in agricultural sector. There are some areas which create hindrance in the agricultural fields like storage management, water management, control of pesticides and fertilizers, crop diseases, and lack of irrigation. These are some of the major problems that are faced by the Indian agricultural sector. India is facing a lot of issues of availability of water for irrigation and government is working for the same in order to implement automation in agricultural sector. Agricultural Automation concentrating more on efficient irrigation can be achieved by making use of the latest technologies like Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Arduino and Raspberry devices can be embedded with moisture and temperature sensors along with the help of Machine Learning algorithms to attain advancement in irrigation. The world is getting advanced in terms of technology and the data storage as well as management of sensors is shifted towards online cloud. This makes it easy for the users to access the data from anywhere at any moment. Automatic irrigation is a vital topic for the evapotranspiration process and the crop prediction. Evapotranspiration process is the process of water management and the hydrologic cycle to develop a sustainable irrigation method. The paper discusses the application of Artificial Intelligence and other embedded systems in the agricultural sector by keeping in mind the past breakthroughs. The problem of water usage that is faced by the farmers will be solved with the help of the smart irrigation system. It is a fully automated irrigation system that is easily accessible and very beneficial for the future of agriculture.

Developments on Helix Theory: Exploring a Micro-Evolutionary Repositioning in Stra.Tech.Man Terms
Authors: Vlados Charis , Chatzinikolaou Dimos
Published: October 2019

This study explores a potential reposition of the triple helix model of university-industry-government relations in terms of micro-level analysis. In this direction, we evaluate the development of helix theory over time, by reviewing the relevant literature divided into three successive phases: the phase of theoretical foundation, the phase of conceptual expansion, and the phase of recent developments and systematic attempts of implementation. In this conceptual study, we estimate that a refocused triple helix model in terms of local development, by placing at the center of analysis the “living organization’s” dynamics in Stra.Tech.Man terms (synthesis of Strategy-Technology-Management), can be a possible direction of analytical enrichment.
Enzymatic preparation of nanocrystalline and microcrystalline cellulose
Authors: ANDERSON SARAH R. , ESPOSITO DOMINIC , GILLETTE WILLIAM , ZHU J.Y. , BAXA ULRICH , MCNEIL SCOTT E.
Published: October 2019

Traditional cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) production methods use harsh chemicals, are energetically expensive, and result in a hydrophilic sulfate surface chemistry with limited utility. Enzymatic production of CNCs is a less expensive alternative production method that eliminates the need for harsh chemicals and requires much less energy for mechanical fibrillation and heating. Furthermore, enzymes that selectively degrade the amorphous regions of cellulose fibers, and do not significantly digest the crystalline areas, result in CNCs that retain a hydroxyl group surface chemistry. Retention of hydroxyl groups allows for easier chemical manipulation, and thus an expanded commercial potential. Here we show that cellulase from Aspergillus niger is capable of producing CNC and microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) from well-solubilized kraft pulp feedstock with minimal processing, and that a chimeric cellulase partially digests kraft pulp and live wood feedstock. Additionally, we show that as a feedstock source, milled pulp from bug-killed dead and downed trees has significantly reduced energy requirements to process the feedstock into elementary fibers and MFCs when compared to live wood feedstock sources.

Published: October 2019

Background: Oral hygiene maintenance is difficult for patients who are receiving fixed orthodontic treatment.

Objective: The aim of the study was to find out deterioration of oral hygiene status during treatment of fixed orthodontic appliances in the Department of Orthodontics in BSMMU.

Methodology: This cross sectional study was carried out in the Department of Orthodontics at Bang-  abandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka from July 2013 to July 2014. All the patients taking treatment with fixed orthodontic appliances for more than 6 months were included as study population. During treatment in the OPD all the information of the patients’ oral hygiene maintenance like brush-  ing, dental floss use, use of mouthwash, and history of sugar consumption, taking sticky food were recorded.  The  Orthodontic  Plaque  Index  (OPI)  was  calculated  and  recorded.  In  addition  to  that frequency of brushing, type of tooth brush, technique of brushing and inter dental brush were also considered.

Result: A total number of 100 patients were studied. Mean OPI was 81.78 (22.97). Mean value of OPI was 86.35 (13.27) among patients who brushed their teeth once a day but it was decreased gradually as the  patients  increased  frequency  of  toothbrush  use  per  day  and  became  85.74  (±26.12)  among  the patients who brushed their teeth thrice a day. Mean value of OPI was 81.98 (±23.27) who did not use dental floss and 75.00 (±7.00) who used dental floss once a day. Mean value of OPI was 84.65 (±23.10) who used inter dental brush irregularly but 35.00 (±0.00) who used it thrice a day. Mean value of OPI was 85.70 (±22.43) who did not use mouth wash whereas it reduced to 46.00 (±0.00) among them who used mouth wash thrice a day.  Conclusion: All the indexes of oral hygiene are increased in patients treated with fixed orthodontic appliances in the Department of Orthodontics in BSMMU.

Published: October 2019

The problem of teaching children of primary school age with the peculiarities of psychophysical development, who study in inclusive classes the article deals. The continuous development of pedagogical practice and the growth of the number of children with disabilities leads to the search for new more effective methods of work, new approaches to the organization of the educational process. The study is based on the use of Waldorf methodology – eurythmia, the main purpose of which is to develop a child's holistic perception of the world through the experience of its beauty, harmony, the formation of a positive attitude to themselves and other people, improving communication skills, harmonization of personality through a sense of joy, security and safety. Eurythmy is effectively used to improve the condition of children with different severity degrees of the disease and different levels of intellect. This subject is part of the school curriculum, as it «paves the way» for teaching other disciplines, and this, in
turn, will form an integral system of school integration. A feature of the educational process organization in the first grade is that learners are engaged in eurythmia with music. They perform eurythmic special exercises for vowels and consonants with the teacher in the form of an accessible interesting play games. Training takes place
on small poems and fairy-tale games, built on rhyme and rhythm. It is necessary to beat the rhythm of poems rhythmically, measuring its size in short and long steps. It was noted that the level of emotional stress in children is reduced. The exercises we use have a positive impact on the health, thinking, will, feelings of the child and contribute to the harmonious development of social skills, which in children with autism spectrum disorders are significantly impaired. The children learned to listen and understand the instruction of the teacher to perform the exercises immediately after the words of the master and without errors, quickly navigate in the concepts of «rightleft», «up and down»; «back and forth», to distinguish the quality of movement «loud-quiet, short-long steps; fastslow»; follow the steps on different surfaces of the foot; to recognize parts of the body to maintain balance while performing exercises on the bench and while driving on the forms to catch and throw the ball to move along defined trajectories independently and in a group. It is necessary to adhere to the systematic training and to form a positive emotional state in children and a steady interest in the lesson to obtain a successful result. It is necessary to combine the creation of an atmosphere of goodwill, assistance and mutual assistance and at the same timerequire clarity and correctness of the movements and exercises.
The grown-up siblings: history and functions of Western Uralic *kse
Authors: Ajanki Rigina
Published: October 2019

In this paper, it is claimed that the case suffix *kse, known as translative, dates back to the Finnic-Mordvin proto language, where it functioned as a functive. It is illustrated using synchronic data from Finnic-Mordvin languages that the functions of *kse do not display an inherent feature of directionality ‘into’, or in other terms, lative. It is even possible that the suffix was neutral with respect to time stability, as it is in contemporary Erzya. Further, it is assumed that since the Northern Finnic languages have acquired a new stative case, the functive labelled essive *nA, formerly applied as an intralocal case, the functions of *kse have changed in these languages: *kse has become mainly the marker of a transformative, with an inherent feature of dynamicity.
Adaptation of loanwords of the suffix type *-eTA in Finnish and Saami
Authors: Rauhala Ilona
Published: October 2019

This article concerns loanwords that have been adapted to the adjective suffix type *-eTA in Finnish (-eA) and North Saami (-at). The questions to answer are: From which languages the loanwords have been borrowed and adapted to this adjective type? Which processes have been used to adapt loanwords to the suffix type *-eTA? Can we say something about the productivity of a suffix by studying the loanwords it has adapted? According to the data, the loanwords have been gained especially from Germanic and Scandinavian languages. Also, the North Saami and Finnish do not have common loanwords. They have borrowed words from same source but separately, i. e. they cannot be reconstructed to common Finno-Saamic form. However, both languages have used the same methods in adapting loanwords to the suffix type *-eTA. Both Finnish and North Saami has also young loanwords in suffix type *-eTA which indicates that the suffix has been productive enough to adapt loanwords perhaps longer than thought. It is likely that the Finnish -eA adjectives would be even now adapted to -at in North Saami.
Deficiencies of Official Bilingualism in the Finno-Ugric Republics of Post-Soviet Russia: A Legal Perspective
Authors: Zamyatin Konstantin
Published: October 2019

As a part of the “parade of sovereignties” during the disintegration of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s, the national republics of Russia designated both Russian and local languages as their state languages. The co-official status of the dominant Russian language by default prevented full-fledged official bilingualism, and serious steps were needed to promote non-dominant local languages in the public sphere. Beyond a mere formal recognition of their official status, the republican authorities passed regulations in order to provide institutional support for the local languages, the amount of which varied across republics. However, the extent of such regulations remains understudied and the best way to evaluate it would be a comparative analysis. What was the level of institutionalization of the official status in the case of titular languages in Russia’s republics? This study examines various solutions for framing the official status of titular languages in regional language legislations in order to understand the patterns of institutionalization. The republics titled after the Finno-Ugric peoples were chosen as case studies for the comparison. The study reveals that language legislation contains serious deficiencies in institutionalization of the official status of titular languages, which impede possibilities for their practical use in office.

Amortiguamiento Viscoso Equivalente en el Diseño Basado en Desplazamientos
Authors: Bay Cristian Otto , Palazzo Gustavo
Published: October 2019

A comienzos de siglo comienza el desarrollo de métodos de diseño basados en desempeño para estructuras sometidas a acción sísmica, destacándose entre ellos el método de diseño directo basado en desplazamientos (DDBD). Este método caracteriza el comportamiento no lineal de una estructura sometida a acción sísmica mediante un sistema lineal equivalente, donde se utiliza el concepto de amortiguamiento viscoso equivalente (AVE) para representar el comportamiento no lineal, así como todas las fuentes de disipación de energía elásticas e inelásticas en la estructura. El AVE tiene sus comienzos a principios del siglo pasado y con el advenimiento del DDBD se han realizado números estudios numéricos y experimentales para aproximar el comportamiento lineal de la estructura. Este artículo presenta los principales avances del AVE, se abordan distintos ciclos de histéresis, y característicos de diversas tipologías estructurales, se concluye que es un tema abierto sobre todo en la parte experimental.
Göktaşlarının Mülkiyeti Meselesi
Authors: KARAUZ Agah Kürşat
Published: October 2019

Göktaşları, ekonomik ve bilimsel açıdan değer taşıyan maddî varlıklardır. Göktaşlarının yeryüzüne düşmesi ile birlikte bu varlıkların mülkiyetinin kime ait olacağı konusu gündeme gelmektedir. Yeryüzüne ait olmayan bu varlıkların hukukî niteliğinin tespiti de oldukça zordur. Bunun sebebi, söz konusu varlıkların yapısının taşınır mülkiyetinin aslen kazanma sınıflandırmalardan hemen hemen hiçbirine benzememesidir. Bu sebeple, hem milletlerarası sözleşmelerde hem de millî hukuk sistemlerinde göktaşlarının mülkiyeti hususuna ilişkin oldukça sınırlı düzenlemeler bulunmaktadır. Ancak göktaşlarının mülkiyetine ilişkin bu düzenlemeler oldukça farklı sonuçlar öngörmektedir. Ayrıca bu konuya ilişkin yabancı mahkemelerde sınırlı da olsa kararlar mevcuttur. Devletlerin özel mülkiyete bakış açıları ve sosyal-ekonomik gerekçelerle, bu varlıkların mülkiyetine ilişkin yaklaşımlar, kesin bir şekilde kamunun hüküm ve tasarrufunda olduğu anlayıştan sınırsız bir şekilde özel mülkiyete tabi olacağı anlayışa kadar geniş bir yelpaze içerisindedir. Bu konu hakkında, Türk Hukukunda bir düzenleme bulunmadığı gibi, henüz bir inceleme de yapılmamıştır. Türk Hukuku açısından söz konusu cisimlerin mülkiyeti, 4271 sayılı Türk Medenî Kanununun taşınır mülkiyetine ilişkin hükümleri (m.762-777) çerçevesinde değerlendirilerek çözüme bağlanmalıdır. Bu nedenle, çalışmamızda, göktaşlarının bilimsel değeri olan eşya, maden, define, buluntu ve sahipsiz eşya nitelikleri taşıyıp taşımadıkları hususları irdelenmiştir.

Published: October 2019

Sosyal dışlanma ve iyilik hali kavramları günümüz dünyasında üzerinde sıkça durulan

kavramlar arasındadır. Kürselleşme, iş gücü piyasalarında yaşanan sorunlar, adil olmayan gelir

dağılımı, yetersiz sosyal güvenlik sistemi, yaşanan göç olguları, bireylere ait özellikler gibi

sebeplerden ötürü kişiler hayatlarının bir döneminde sosyal yönden dışlanma yaşar duruma

gelmişlerdir. Sosyal yönden yaşanılan bu dışlanma, kişilerin yaşam kalitelerini, sosyal

sağlıklarını bir başka deyişle iyilik hallerini olumsuz yönde etkilemektedir. Bu araştırma ile

sosyal dışlanma algı düzeyi ile iyilik hali arasındaki ilişkinin tespit edilmesi amaçlanmıştır.

Araştırmada verilerin toplanması için bireylere demografik bilgilerine ait soruların yanı sıra,

sosyal dışlanma algı düzeylerini tespit etmek maksadıyla Jehoel-Gijsbers ve Vrooman (2007)

tarafından geliştirilen, Türkçeye uyarlanması yanında geçerlilik ve güvenilirlik çalışması Bayram

vd. (2010) tarafından yapılmış olan “Sosyal Dışlanma Ölçeği” ile iyilik hallerinin tespiti için

Diener vd. (2009) tarafından geliştirilen Türkçeye uyarlanması ve Türkçe geçerlilik ve güvenilirlik

çalışması Fidan ve Usta (2013) tarafından yapılmış olan “İyilik Hali Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır.

Araştırma, Yalova’da bulunan 18 yaş üzeri toplam 855 katılımcı ile kartopu yöntemi uygulanarak

gerçekleştirilmiş olup toplanan veriler SPSS-18 paket programıyla analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen

sonuçlara göre, sosyal dışlanma düzeyinin azalmasıyla iyilik halinin artması arasında ters

orantılı anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu gözlenmiştir.

Bireyler arası ilişkilerde doğal ve kendiliğinden oluşan informel iletişim işe yönelik

olduğu sürece örgüte fayda sağlayabilir. Duygusal anlamda, psikolojik olarak işyerinde iyi olma

hali olarak tanımlanan işyeri mutluluğu örgütte ki olumlu informel iletişim durumundan pozitif

etkilenebilmektedir. Diğer taraftan, bireylerin faaliyet gösterdikleri alan içinde bir başkasından

onay almaksızın karar verebilme, inisiyatif alabilme yetkisini ifade eden personel güçlendirme

de informel iletişim ortamında daha iyi uygulanabilmektedir. Bu savlar ışığında araştırmanın

temel amacı; informel iletişimin işyeri mutluluğu üzerindeki etkisini ve bu etkide personel

güçlendirmenin aracılığını ortaya koymaktır. Bülent Ecevit, Süleyman Demirel, Mehmet Akif

Ersoy ve Akdeniz Üniversitelerinde çalışan 143 araştırma görevlisi üzerinde anket

uygulanmıştır. Verilerin SmartPLS analiz yaklaşımı ile yol modeli kullanılmıştır. SmartPLS

programında yapısal eşitlik modeli, varyans tabanlı yapısal model yaklaşımı ile analiz

edilmektedir. Çalışmanın amacı informel iletişim tarzının işyeri mutluluğu ve performans

güçlendirme üzerindeki etkisini görmektir. Ayrıca personel güçlendirmenin informel iletişim ile

işyeri mutluluğu arasındaki düzenleyici (aracı) etkisi de araştırmanın bir başka amacıdır. Analiz

sonuçlarına göre; informel iletişim tarzı personel güçlendirme ve iş yeri mutluluğu üzerinde

pozitif ve anlamlı etkiye sahiptir. Bunun yanında informel iletişim ile iş yeri mutluluğu arasındaki

ilişkide personel güçlendirme aracılık etkisi göstermektedir. Araştırmaya göre informel iletişimde

bir birimlik artış işyeri mutluluğunda %23 artışı sağlarken, personel güçlendirme aracı değişken

olarak modele dahil olduğunda toplam etki %58’e yükselmektedir. 
ÖRGÜT İKLİMİ, İŞ STRESİ VE ÇALIŞAN PERFORMANSI İLİŞKİSİ: İSTANBUL AVRUPA YAKASI İLÇE BELEDİYELERİNDE BİR UYGULAMA
Authors: TORTUMLU Muhammet , TAŞ Mehmet Ali
Published: October 2019

Örgüt bağlamında üzerinde çalışılan kavramlardan olan iş stresi ve örgüt iklimi,

örgütlerin gelişmesinde ve kalkınmasında büyük önem taşımaktadır. Örgütlerin rekabet gücü,

sürdürülebilirlikleri ve çalışan performansı üzerinde bu kavramların etkisi büyüktür. Bu noktada

çalışanlar örgütlerin önemli entelektüel sermayeleri olduğu söylenebilir. Eğitim seviyesinin

artmasıyla beraber çalışanlar daha ziyade bilişsel güçleriyle çalışmaktadır. Bilgi çalışanlarının

motivasyonu ve performansı duygularına ve zihinlerinin berraklığına bağlıdır. Arzu edilen iş ortamı sağlanmadığında çalışanların mutluluk düzeyleri düşmektedir ve bu durum

yaratıcılıklarını ve esnek düşünce repertuarlarını düĢürmektedir. O nedenle yöneticilere önemli

görevler düşmektedir. Buradan hareketle bu çalışmanın amacı; örgüt iklimi, iş stresi ve çalışan

performansı kavramlarını teorik bir çerçevede açıklamak ve stresin yoğun yaşandığı belediye

çalışanları üzerinde bu değişkenlerin birbiriyle olan ilişkisini bir araştırmayla ortaya koymaktır.

Buradan hareketle İstanbul Avrupa yakası ilçe belediyelerinin çalışanları üzerinde anket

yöntemiyle bir araştırma yapılmıştır. Toplam 200 personelden toplanan veriler SPSS 22 ve

Lisrel 8.80 paket programlarıyla analiz edilmiş ve elde edilen sonuçlar sunulmuştur. Buna göre

örgüt ikliminin iş stresi ve çalışan performansı ile önemli düzeyde ilişkili olduğu tespit edilmştir.

Fakat çalışanların yaşadıkları iş stresinin, sergiledikleri performans ile anlamlı ilişkisinin

olmadığı saptanmıştır. Bir yandan örgüt iklimi çalışan performansını yükseltirken diğer taraftan

iş stresini düşürdüğü saptanmıştır. Ancak iş stresinin, çalışanların performansı üzerinde anlamlı

bir etkiye sahip olmadığı saptanmıştır.

Enflasyon ekonomik hayatta tüm karar alıcıları yakından ilgilendiren bir durumdur.

Yüksek enflasyon sabit gelirlinin alım gücünün düşmesine, üreticinin maliyetinin artmasına ve

ekonomik aktivitenin yavaşlamasına neden olmaktadır. İhracat ise bir ülkede üretilen mal ve

hizmetlerin diğer ülkelere satılması ve ülkeye döviz geliri sağlanmasıdır. Bu sayede ihracat

gerçekleştiren ülke ekonomik büyümeyi sağlayacak, yatırımları için gereken döviz girdisini

sağlayacak ve zenginleĢecektir. Türkiye‟de ekonomisini büyütmek ve döviz girdisini artırmak

için ihracatını artırmıştır. Çalışmada kullanılan veriler 2003:2-2018:11 dönemini (190 gözlem)

kapsamaktadır. Seriler, gıda ihracatı (GIDAEXP), gıda fiyatları endeksi (GIDATÜFE) ve

tüketici fiyat endeksidir (TÜFE). Veriler TÜİK‟ten temin edilmiştir. Çalışmada öncelikle serilere

Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) birim kök testi uygulanmıştır. Birim kök sorunu içeren seriler

farkı alınarak durağanlaştırılmış ve durağan haldeki seriler kullanılarak VAR model

kurulmuştur. Kurulan VAR modelde serilere Granger Nedensellik Testi uygulanmıştır. Son

olarak oluşturulan VAR modelde GIDATÜFE ile TÜFE‟nin gıda ihracatındaki şoklara nasıl

tepki verdiğinin ölçülmesi için Etki-Tepki Analizi yapılmıştır. Yapılan bu analizler sonucunda

gıda ihracatı ile gıda fiyatlarını arasında, gıda fiyatları ile enflasyon arasında nedensellik

olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. 
OSMANLI DEVLETİNİN 18. YY KADARKİ DENİZ TİCARETİNDE LİMAN KENTLERİNE GENEL BAKIŞ
Authors: DENİZ Ahmet
Published: October 2019

Osmanlı Devletinin denizlerinde yer alan liman kentlerinde yapılan ticari faaliyetler konumuzun sınırlarını oluşturmaktadır. Dönem olarak 16-18 yy arasında ve yelkenli gemilerle yapılan ticaretin yaşandığı limanlardan kesintilerle vurgulanmıştır. Liman kentlerinde ki ticari yaşantının yanında ticarete konu olan ürünlere de yer verilmiştir. Dönemin liman faaliyetlerinde yaşanan sıkıntılar karşısında Osmanlı Devletinin aldığı önlemlere kronolojik sırada verilmeye çalışılmıştır. Karadeniz de bulunan limanlar, Marmara Denizinde bulunan limanlar, Ege Denizinde bulunan limanlar, Akdeniz de bulunan limanların ticaret tarihi açısında değerlidir. Bu çalışma Deniz Ticareti üzerine çalışacak araştırmacılara yardımcı olması acısından ayrıca öneme sahiptir. Osmanlı imparatorluğunun uluslararası ticaretinde Batının üstünlüğünün kesinleşmesi 18. yüzyılda olmuştu. Osmanlı Devletinin çok kısa zamanda tarih sahnesinden silinmemesi, gerileme ve yıkılışının bile 200 sene sürmesi deniz stratejilerinin sayesinde olmuştur. Alt yapı yetersizliği ve salgın hastalıkların yanında yabancı şirketlerle çok kıyasıya bir rekabet söz konusudur. İktisat tarihinde 16.-18 Yüzyılda Osmanlının deniz ticareti üzerine yapılan bu çalışma yelkenli gemilerle modernleşme çabaları temel olarak ele alınmıştır. Deniz ticaretinin temellinde iktisat ve iktisat tarihi açısından politik, askeri, idari birçok konuyu kapsamakta olsa da aslen deniz ticaret konusu üzerinden ilerlemektedir. Osmanlı Devleti’nde hızla genişleyen Avrupa ticaretinin, Tanzimat reformları ortamında, denizcilik açısından yeşerttiği bir diğer sonuç ise ticarî denizciliğin uluslararası standartlarda yapılandırılması çalışmalarını başlatmasıdır.

Published: October 2019

The employment of Protected Designations of Origin (PDO) in agri-food products through recognized chains has a fundamental economic role in Ecuador. A substantial amount of research has focused on examining the crop performance of PDO products. However, there is a shift in the agri-food chain perspective towards more sustainable models. In this respect, social, economic, and institutional aspects are consequential and contribute to the agri-food sector development. The current rise in market opportunities at the local and international level drives support for them. This study aims to analyze socio-economic and governance components, in order to understand the PDO Cocoa Arriba (Theobroma cacao) chain sustainability performance and propose potential future strategies. Principal Components Analysis was used to contribute relevant insight. This framework applies accounts with a revision of primary and supporting activities. The investigation clustered pre-production, production, and post-production tiers. It also executed food chain mapping and identified chain actors. Results suggested several viable long-term strategies. Examples of these strategies include the enhancement of national regulation to assist chain actors, and the stimulus of young producers and empowerment of associations. The main contribution to the research was the application of governance mechanisms to comprehensively assess chain performance. Based on the results, we recommend incorporating new indicators to analyze the environmental and institutional components in detail.

Porcine rotavirus is a major cause of acute viral gastroenteritis in suckling piglets, and vaccination is considered to be an effective measure to control these infections. The development of a live mucosal vaccine using Bacillus subtilis spores as an antigen delivery vehicle is a convenient and attractive vaccination strategy against porcine rotavirus. In this study, a shuttle vector was constructed for the spore surface display of the spike protein VP8* from porcine rotavirus (the genotype was G5P[7]). A successful display of the CotB-VP8* fusion protein on the spore surface was confirmed by Western blot and immunofluorescence microscopy analysis. The capacity for immune response generated after immunization with the recombinant strain was evaluated in a mouse model. The intestinal fecal IgA and serum IgG were detected by enzyme-linked-immunosorbent serologic assay (ELISA). Importantly, recombinant strain spores could elicit strong specific mucosal and humoral immune responses. These encouraging results suggest that recombinant B. subtilis BV could provide a strategy for a potential novel application approach to the development of a new and safe mucosal subunit vaccine against porcine rotavirus.
