Differences between genders in eccentric hip adduction to abduction, hip medial to lateral rotation and knee flexion to extension peak torques ratios
Authors: de Marche Baldon Rodrigo , Lobato Daniel Ferreira Moreira , Serrão Fábio Viadanna
Published: October 2018

Muscle imbalances appear to contribute to lower limb injuries and the incidence rate of some knee injuries has been reported to be greater in females than in males. The purposes of this study were to compare the differences between genders in eccentric hip and knee peak torques normalized according to body mass as well as in eccentric hip adduction to abduction(HAD/HAB), hip medial to lateral rotation (HMR/HLR) and knee flexion to extension (KF/KE) peak torques ratios. Seventeen males and twenty-two females participated in this study. Eccentric hip and knee peak torque for each movement were measured using an isokinetic dynamometer (Biodex Multi-Joint System 2). The Student t test for independent samples and the Mann-Whitney U test were used for all comparisons between genders (α = 0.05). The results showed that females had significantly lower eccentric hip adduction, abduction, medial rotation and lateral rotation as well as lower knee flexion and extension peak torques. Females also showed greater eccentric HAD/HAB and HMR/HLR as well as lower KF/KE peak torques ratios when compared to males. The differences verified between genders help to explain the greater rate of knee disorders observed in females.
Literature reporting normative data for muscle strength measured by hand-held dynamometry: A systematic review
Authors: Bohannon Richard W.
Published: October 2018

This review was conducted to identify, summarize, and discuss literature purporting to present normative data for measurements obtained using a hand-held dynamometer (HHD). Relevant literature was identified through electronic searches of 4 databases: PubMed, Science Citation Index, Scopus and Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health. Articles identified via the searches were reviewed to determine if they presented normative data obtained with a HHD from healthy individuals. Articles were excluded if the data were not presented within age and gender strata. Data on testing and participant specifics were retrieved. Fifteen studies presented normative data within age and gender strata for measurements obtained with a HHD. Norms were presented for neck flexion and numerous actions at the shoulder, elbow, wrist, fingers, hip, knee and ankle. Norms were presented for a wide age span- children to older adults. Many of these norms are compromised. Norms for older adults(⩾ 80 years) are lacking. Although norms are available, they should be used with caution. Specifics of testing and samples tested restrict the applicability of the measures.

Published: October 2018

Objective: To determine the effects of early introduction of isometric exercises on pain intensity and trunk and lower extremity muscles strength in patients with sciatica.

Methods: Fifty two patients treated for disc herniation with sciatica were included in this randomized controlled single-blinded study. They were examined twice, before and after twenty days of rehabilitation, with neuroimaging, visual analog scale (VAS), straight leg rising test (SLR), range of spine movement in a saggital plane, muscle strength, electromyography (EMG), electroneurography (ENG) and intensity of current vs stimulus duration tests(IC-SD). Twenty-six patients, selected randomly, were ordered to reduce the physical activity and frequent loading of the spine (conventional [C] group) while 26 patients underwent a program of supervised isometric exercises(intervention [I] group). A control group of healthy subjects performed once the same examination.

Results: Following treatment the muscle strength and flexibility of the spine showed significant (P< 0.05) improvement in I group with a significantly lower pain level and number of positive SLR tests. The same tests performed in C group indicated no parallel improvement. EMG Parameters increased in almost all muscles, but only in the I group were they associated with simultaneous improvement in ENG examinations of peroneal nerves.

Conclusion: Early introduction of isometric exercises, 14 days after the incidence, is a relevant choice in cases of patients with sciatica caused by the disc herniation.
Relationship between time to peak torque of hamstrings and sprint running performance
Authors: Bračič Mitja , Hadžič Vedran , Čoh Milan , Derviševič Edvin
Published: October 2018

Background: Previous studies have investigated the role of hamstrings and quadriceps absolute and/or relative peak torque at high concentric velocities (240° and 300°/sec) and sprint performance but their findings were inconclusive. However, no study so far has investigated the relationship between time to peak torque (TPT) of hamstrings and quadriceps at high concentric velocity and sprint ability. This parameter may play and important role in sprinting, as it is one of the indicators of the explosive muscular strength that is crucial for sprinting performance.

Method: Thirty six healthy physical education students without previous injury voluntarily participated in investigation. The measurements of the sprint times at 5, 10 and 20 meters were carried out using an infrared photocell. Quadriceps and hamstrings strength was tested concentrically at 240°/sec using Biodex System 3 dynamometer. Linear regression was used to evaluate the influence of hamstrings and quadriceps relative strength and TPT on sprint times at 5, 10 and 20 meters.

Results. Hamstrings' TPT significantly predicted the sprint times at 5, 10 and 20 meters (p values were 0.001, 0.004 and 0.008, respectively). At 5, 10 and 20 meters the model was significant (F=7.12, p<0.01; F=5.31, p< 0.05; F=4.07, p<0.05, respectively) while R square values were 0.31, 0.26, and 0.21, respectively. Subjects with hamstrings TPT below 200 ms had significantly shorter sprint times at all sprint distances in comparison with subjects whose hamstrings TPT was above 200 ms. Quadriceps' TPT was not correlated with sprint times.

Conclusion: The ability of the hamstrings to produce torque quickly can significantly influence the sprint times at 20 m sprint. Most of this effect is seen in the initial acceleration phase (first 5 m) while later on (at 10 and 20 m) this influence slightly decreases but remains significant. It seems that not only the absolute amount of strength, but also the rate of strength development within the muscle can influence the sprint times.
The functional evaluation of lower limb symmetry in a group of young elite judo and wrestling athletes
Authors: Stradijot Fulvio , Pittorru Gian Mario , Pinna Marco
Published: October 2018

Introduction: This project proposes the inclusion of functional assessment as an essential branch of a training program applied to a group of young elite judo and wrestling athletes to investigate for possible asymmetries of lower limbs, a potential cause for future injuries.

Methods: A group of young male elite Sardinian judo and wrestling athletes was randomly selected and were functionally evaluated with three different tests. Strength and balance abilities were measured while muscle power was assessed by measuring jump height, flight time and maximum contraction speed. Subjects were compared according to their right and left leg performance.

Results: Generally, no significant bilateral difference were indicated for any of the applied tests, between right and left legs in all considered parameters concerning the three utilized tests, with the exception of peak torque values of the knee extensors.

Conclusion: This study indicates that judokas are distinguished by general bilateral symmetry in certain functions. This should serve as an important guideline for both clinicians and coaches.

Published: October 2018

Healthy college-age subjects (43 men, 32 women) provided data to examine the effect of arm swing on the attainment of maximum countermovement vertical jump heights. Subject's data were collected from two laboratory visits. Maximum-effort jumps were performed, both with and without an arm swing at each visit, as peak height values were collected and recorded by an instrumented platform. A 2 (gender) x 2 (jump condition) ANOVA revealed an interaction, as jumps done with an arm swing done by men produced the highest maximum jump heights. Using two separate multivariate regression analyses, four anthropometric variables (height, body mass, upper leg length, lower leg length) explained a significant amount of variance in maximum height values for jumps done with and without an arm swing. Finally multivariate regression also revealed two upper extremity anthropometric measures (upper and lower arm lengths) accounted for a small (R $^{2} = $ 15% yet significant amount of variance in delta (jumps done with – without an arm swing) height values. Continued research should examine additional predictor variables in an attempt to explain more of the variance in jump height values.

Published: October 2018

The aim of the study was to determine the effect of selected individual factors (independent variables) on the dependent variable of a simulated rowing distance in a group of physically inactive females. The independent variables were the women's age, body mass (kg) and height (cm), and the BMI index. The time required to cover the simulated distance of 1000 m was adopted as the dependent variable. The study involved 258 female students who participated only in the obligatory physical education classes. Research revealed that the relationships between anthropometric parameters and the time required to complete 1000 m on a rowing ergometer differ among physically inactive women and elite rowers. In both physically inactive women as well as elite rowers an increase in body height had a positive influence on the time(shorter time). In the case of body mass, its increase in our study subjects resulted in poorer times, which is contrary to the results of studies conducted on elite rowers. This is most likely due to the fact that the body mass of athletes consists mainly of lean body mass, whereas physically inactive females are characterized by a higher percentage of body fat. Moreover, the time taken to complete the rowing trial was shortest for students with BMI values ranging from 17 to 21. The conducted research led to the conclusion that the analyzed anthropometric parameters affect the time needed by women to cover a distance of 1000 m on a rowing ergometer. Further studies should be conducted to include additional anthropometric and physiological parameters.

Authors: Nguyen Hien Thi , Tran Hai Chi , Le Man Van Viet
Published: October 2018

This study focused on purification of peanut protein extract by using ultrafiltration technology. The peanut protein extract, adjusted to the pH 5, was ultrafiltered by 50 kDa membrane in dead – end model at the operating pressure of 6 bar. The higher the concentration factor was, the higher the removal of phytate and carbohydrate was. At the concentration factor of 2,5, the ratio of phytate and carbohydrate removal was 30% and 56%, respectively. In addition, discontinuous diafiltration was applied for improving purity degree of the protein preparation. With three dilution cycles, more than 90% of phytate and carbohydrate was rejected, and the recovery yield and the purity degree of the protein preparation was 89% and 92%, respectively. Ultrafiltration has been a potential solution to purification of peanut protein extract in practice.

A variant of solving the problem of reducing the informative intensity of the video stream coming from the aircraft without loss of its efficiency and reliability is discussed. The analysis of aerial photographs, which constitute informative redundancy and subsequently complicate the process of its interpretation is made. The implementation of decryption coding technology for aerial photography is disclosed. A model for the classification of informative segments of an aerial photograph is considered. The direction of reducing the information redundancy of aerial photographs with preservation of key information to its interpretation is proposed. The substantiation of a method of exact allocation of highly informative segments from the whole aerial photograph, which carry the maximum information objects in the interests of interpretation is given. A technological concept of an effective syntactic description of the elements of sufficiently informative segments of an aerial photo is taken into account, which takes into account the characteristics of the transformant components of the discrete cosine transform. Moreover, such a concept is aimed at maximum preservation of key information to decipher the whole aerial photo. A method is constructed for accurately isolating highly informative segments from the entire aerial photograph, which carry the maximum information objects in the interest of deciphering. This will allow to allocate and completely transfer not distorted key information to the deciphering of the whole aerial photo. That, in turn, will shorten the time and increase the probability of correct interpretation. A promising technological concept of an effective syntactic description of the elements of sufficiently informative segments of an aerial photograph that takes into account the characteristics of the DCT transformant components. The scheme for evaluating the significance of transformants of an aerial photograph informative segments is considered. It is substantiated that the proposed version will provide simultaneous reduction of the information necessary for presentation of service data and will create prerequisites for effective reduction of informative intensity of the whole segment of the aerial reconnaissance

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk : 1) mengetahui efektivitas implementasi kebijakan penilaian autentik, 2)  menganalisis implementasi penilaian autentik pada pembelajaran PAI, 3) menjelaskan faktor pendukung dan penghambat dalam efektivitas implementasi kebijakan penilaian autentik dan 4) menjelaskan dampak implementasi kebijakan penilaian autentik terhadap kinerja guru.  Penelitian ini menggunakan teori model Goerge C. Edward III yang mengukur keberhasilan suatu implementasi kebijakan melalui komunikasi, sumber daya, disposisi dan struktur birokrasi. Keempat faktor tersebut sangat bermakna bagi implementasi kebijakan di sekolah. Sebab, implementasi kebijakan merupakan kunci sukses sebuah perintah, jika gagal dalam melaksanakan suatu kebijakan berarti kegagalan dalam mencapai tujuan. Sedangkan pelaksanaan implementasi penilaian autentik pembelajaran PAI harus mengacu kepada Permendikbud Nomor : 23 Tahun 2016 tentang Standar Penilaian Pendidikan yang menilai peserta didik meliputi aspek sikap, pengetahuan dan keterampilan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif melalui analisis deskriptif dengan model studi kasus. subjek penelitiannya adalah Guru PAI. Data diperoleh melalui data primer dengan cara observasi langsung dan wawancara, sedangkan data sekunder melalui dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian dan temuan dilapangan adalah sebagai berikut ; 1)  implementasi kebijakan penilaian autentik sudah terlaksana dengan baik dan efektif, 2) implementasi penilaian autentik pada pembelajaran PAI sudah terlaksana dengan baik. Namun masih ditemukan pola pikir (mindset) guru yang belum berubah dalam mengimplementasikan penilaian autentik secara komprehensif. Artinya, guru melakukan penilaian dengan format seadanya, hanya mengukur hasil akhir peserta didik dan 3) Dukungan implentasi kebijakan penilaian autentik meliputi kepala sekolah, guru yang berkompeten, aktivitas peserta didik, sosialisai kebijakan implementasi, fasilitas dan sumber belajar yang memadai, peran pemerintah daerah, dan peran pengawas. Sedangkan yang menghambat diantaranya melalui sumber daya manusia, sarana dan prasarana, instrumen penilaian, dan lingkungan akademik.

The Effect of Bauxite Residue on the Avoidance Behavior of Enchytraeus albidus (Enchytraeidae)
Authors: Kerekes Ivett Kriszta , Feigl Viktória
Published: October 2018

The potworm Enchytraeus albidus has been used as a testorganism to assess the effects of soil polluting chemicals. The current standardized test methods do not exploit the sensitivity of avoidance behavior of the animals towards chemicals as measurement endpoint. In this paper we tested the effect of bauxite residue (BR), the waste from alumina production, on the habitat of a macrodecomposer in three different soils: an acidic sandy soil (NY), a carbonated sandy soil (OB) and a silty soil (NH). In the acute toxicity tests the testing of whole soil samples proved to be more sensitive compared to the testing of soil suspensions and soil extracts, which indicated significant mortality only at over 50 % BR in soil. EC20 values were 9 % BR in OB, 28 % BR in NH and 34 % BR in NY in the whole soil tests of our study. In the avoidance test potworms chose the 1 % and 5 % BR treated soils instead of the control soils, but avoided the 10 % and 25 % BR concentrations. Besides the common methodology applied in avoidance tests, we offered not only control and treated soil pairs to the animals, but we also paired all the concentrations with each other. E. albidus chose 10 % BR amount in soil instead of 25 % BR in all cases. With the avoidance test we could show not only negative, but also positive effects of soil amendments: BR addition to soils at up to 5 % can result in a better habitat for potworms.
Fucking the Body, Rewriting the Text: Proto-Queer Embodiment through Textual Drag in Virginia Woolf's Orlando (1928) and Monique Wittig's Le Corps lesbien (1973)
Authors: Stokoe Kayte
Published: October 2018

Inspired by Judith Butler's conceptualization of drag as ‘gender parody’, I develop the conceptual frame of ‘textual drag’ in order to define and examine the relationship between parody, satire and gender. I test this frame by reading two seminal feminist works, Virginia Woolf's Orlando (1928) and Monique Wittig's Le Corps lesbien (The Lesbian Body) (1973). Both texts lend themselves particularly persuasively to analysis with this frame, as they each use parodic strategies to facilitate proto-queer satirical critiques of reductive gender norms. Orlando deploys an exaggerated nineteenth-century biographical style, which foregrounds the protagonist's gender fluidity and her developing critique of the norms and systems that surround her, while Le Corps lesbien rewrites canonical romance narratives from a lesbian perspective, challenging the heterosexism inherent in these narratives and providing new modes of thinking about gender, desire and sexual interaction.
Anti-communal, Anti-egalitarian, Anti-nurturing, Anti-loving: Sex and the ‘Irredeemable’ in Andrea Dworkin and Catharine MacKinnon
Authors: Dymock Alex
Published: October 2018

The work of Andrea Dworkin and Catharine A. MacKinnon on sex and sexuality has often been posed as adversary to the development of queer theory. Leo Bersani, in particular, is critical of the normative ambitions of their work, which he sees firstly as trying to ‘redeem’ sex acts themselves, and secondly as advocating for sexuality as a site of potential for social transformation. In this article, I argue that this is a misreading of their work. Drawing on Dworkin's wide body of writing, and MacKinnon early essays in Signs, I suggest that their work makes no such case for sex or sexuality. Rather, by bringing their analysis into conversation with Halberstam's recent work on ‘shadow feminism’, I contend that Dworkin and MacKinnon's antisocial, anti-pastoral and distinctly anti-normative vision of sex and sexuality shares many of the same features of queer theory, ultimately advocating for sex as ‘irredeemable’.
Marginalized Bodies of Imagined Futurescapes: Ableism and Heteronormativity in Science Fiction
Authors: Wälivaara Josefine
Published: October 2018

This article aims to contribute to an understanding of marginalized bodies in science fiction narratives by analyzing how physical disability and homosexuality/bisexuality have been depicted in popular science fiction film and television. Specifically, it analyzes what types of futures are evoked through the exclusion or inclusion of disability and homo/bisexuality. To investigate these futurescapes, in for example Star Trek and The Handmaid’s Tale, the paper uses film analysis guided by the theoretical approach of crip/queer temporality mainly in dialogue with disability/crip scholar Alison Kafer. Although narratives about the future in popular fiction occasionally imagines futures in which disability and homo/bisexuality exist the vast majority do not. This article argues that exclusion of characters with disabilities and homo/bisexual characters in imagined futures of science fiction perpetuate heteronormative and ableist normativity. It is important that fictional narratives of imagined futures do not limit portrayals to heterosexual and able-bodied people but, instead, take into account the ableist and heteronormative imaginaries that these narratives, and in extension contemporary society, are embedded in. Moreover, it is argued that in relation to notions of progression and social inclusion in imagined futurescapes portrayals of homo/bisexuality and disability has been used as narrative devices to emphasis “good” or “bad” futures. Furthermore, homo/bisexuality has increasingly been incorporated as a sign of social inclusion and progression while disability, partly due to the perseverance of a medical understanding of disability, instead is used as a sign of a failed future. However, the symbolic value ascribed to these bodies in stories are based on contemporary views and can thus change accordingly. To change the way the future is envisioned requires challenging how different types of bodies, desires, and notions of normativity are thought about. Sometimes imaginary futures can aid in rethinking and revaluating these taken-for-granted notions of normativity.
Textsortenorientierte Wortbildungsforschung. Desiderate, Perspektiven und Beispielanalysen
Authors: Stumpf Sören
Published: October 2018

This paper provides an overview of the connection between word formation and text type linguistics. Following a brief outline of the current state of research, desiderata and weaknesses of previous research as well as perspectives of a text type oriented research on word formation will be introduced. Here, I advocate a stronger inclusion of oral (with regard to the medium) and conceptually spoken text types (cf. Koch/Oesterreicher 1985). The focus is on the analysis of word formations within the text type of battle rap, which can be classified as oral and conceptually spoken. The analysis gives an insight into my habilitation project outlined in the essay and shows how this project can be realized.

Conceptualizing Terroir Wine Tourism
Authors: Marlowe Byron , Lee Sojung
Published: October 2018

Terroir tourism has been recently recognized to have the potential for developing a new tourism product. However, little research has investigated terroir tourism and its characteristics, differentiating it from wine tourism. For the purpose of this study, characteristics of terroir
tourism were categorized into the constructs of territory, plant growing, advertising, and identity. Through content analysis, the researchers found that terroir tourism has 59 characteristics developed from the literature review on terroir and its relationship to wine and rural tourism. The
findings will help future research to better understand the characteristics of terroir tourism and differentiate it from wine tourism. An outcome of this study validates the conceptual framework of terroir tourism and will help vineyards to develop further rural agritourism practices based
on their terroir characteristics.
Circumnuclear Multiphase Gas in Circinus Galaxy. III. Structure of the Nuclear Ionized Gas
Authors: Wada Keiichi , Yonekura Kensuke , Nagao Tohru
Published: October 2018

We investigate the properties of the ionized gas irradiated by an active galactic nucleus (AGN) based on our “radiation-driven fountain” model for the nearest type-2 Seyfert galaxy, the Circinus galaxy. We conducted “quasi-three-dimensional” spectral analysis using the spectral synthesis code Cloudy and obtained the surface brightness distributions of lines, such as Hα, Hβ, [O iii], [N ii], and [S ii] for the central 16 pc region. The ionized regions observed based on these lines show a conical morphology around the rotation axis, even if we do not phenomenologically postulate the presence of an optically thick “torus.” This region also shows non-uniform internal structures, reflecting the inhomogeneous structure of fountain flows. Using ionization diagnostic diagrams, we investigated the spectral properties of the ionized gas. The diagrams based on the line ratios of [N ii]/Hα and [S ii]/Hα show that most regions of the cone have the same properties as those in the narrow line regions (NLRs) in AGNs, whereas using [O i]/Hα, the central 10 pc regions are rather LINER-like. The gas density, temperature, and ionizing parameter in regions identified as “NLR” are typically n ∼ 300–1500 cm−3, T ∼ (1–3) × 104 K, and U ∼ 0.01, respectively. The morphology and [O iii] intensity are similar to the base of the observed [O iii] cone in the Circinus galaxy, implying some physical connections with the origin of the ∼100 pc scale NLR.

Radio observations grant access to a wide range of physical processes through different emission mechanisms. These processes range from thermal and quiescent to eruptive phenomena, such as shock waves and particle beams. We present a new synthetic radio imaging tool that calculates and visualizes the bremsstrahlung radio emission. This tool works concurrently with state-of-the-art magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the solar corona using the code Block-Adaptive Tree Solarwind Roe Upwind Scheme (BATS-R-US). Our model produces results that are in good agreement with both high- and low-frequency observations of the solar disk. In this study, a ray-tracing algorithm is used, and the radio intensity is computed along the actual curved ray trajectories. We illustrate the importance of refraction in locating the radio-emitting source by comparison of the radio imaging illustrations when the line of sight is considered instead of the refracted paths. We are planning to incorporate nonthermal radio emission mechanisms in a future version of the radio imaging tool.
