These pioneer cities and its sacred spots pulls in a mass of explorers and pilgrims from different pieces of the nation and around the world. Because of its devotion, there is a huge increment in floating and urban populace. These pilgrim’s explorers during journeys every year which has a high potential to impact the urban condition in these blessed destinations. In pilgrimage, impacts are influenced by festival and are limited over time and space such as “chhath pooja” in Bihar, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh and Nepal, Kumbha and Ardh kumbhs various parts of India etc. are associated directly with water bodies. Urban preservation is very important in the case of pilgrim cities because of the its mythological values.

Published: September 2020

As immigration to Canada increases, so, too, do the complexities associated with serving various groups of newcomers, including immigrants, refugees, temporary foreign workers and international students. A range of stakeholder groups, such as grassroots community organisations, immigrant service provider organisations and academic researchers, have developed knowledge about how to best serve newcomers as they integrate into life in Canada. To date, there have been few opportunities for members of these and other stakeholder groups to work together to ensure that the needs of newcomers are being efficiently met. In this article, we describe a multi-step process of reciprocal knowledge engagement involving diverse stakeholders and led by the Newcomer Research Network at the University of Calgary. This engagement has the ultimate goal of developing a knowledge mobilisation hub focused on building capacity in community-engaged research with newcomers. In order to understand how we will reach this goal, this article outlines the efforts, priorities, challenges and important lessons learned that occurred as part of the multi-step process undertaken to establish a knowledge exchange with newcomer communities at its core.
Mind the gap – Part 2: Improving quantitative estimates of cloud and rain water path in oceanic warm rain using spaceborne radars
Authors: Battaglia Alessandro , Kollias Pavlos , Dhillon Ranvir , Lamer Katia , Khairoutdinov Marat , Watters Daniel
Published: September 2020

Abstract. The intrinsic small spatial scales and low-reflectivity structure of oceanic warm precipitating clouds suggest that millimeter spaceborne radars are best suited to providing quantitative estimates of cloud and rain liquid water paths (LWPs). This assertion is based on their smaller horizontal footprint; high sensitivities; and a wide dynamic range of path-integrated attenuations associated with warm-rain cells across the millimeter wavelength spectrum, with diverse spectral responses to rain and cloud partitioning. State-of-the-art single-frequency radar profiling algorithms of warm rain seem to be inadequate because of their dependence on uncertain assumptions about the rain–cloud partitioning and because of the rain microphysics.
Here, high-resolution cloud-resolving model simulations for the Rain in Cumulus over the Ocean field study and a spaceborne forward radar simulator are exploited
to assess the potential of existing and future spaceborne radar systems for quantitative warm-rain microphysical retrievals. Specifically, the detrimental effects of nonuniform beam filling on estimates of path-integrated attenuation (PIA), the added value of brightness temperature (TB) derived adopting radiometric radar modes, and the performances of multifrequency PIA and/or TB combinations
when retrieving liquid water paths partitioned into cloud (c-LWPs) and rain (r-LWPs) are assessed. Results show that (1) Ka- and W-band TB values add useful constraints and are effective at lower LWPs than the same-frequency PIAs; (2) matched-beam combined TB values and PIAs from single-frequency or multifrequency radars can significantly narrow down uncertainties in retrieved cloud and rain liquid water paths; and (3) the configuration including PIAs, TB values and near-surface reflectivities for the Ka-band–W-band pairs in our synthetic retrieval can achieve an RMSE of better than 30 % for c-LWPs and r-LWPs exceeding 100 g m−2.
Influences of Peer Assessment Types on Performance and Students’ Perspectives on Online Peer Assessment
Authors: Liao Ren-Yu , Chang Ching-Tao , Chen Chun-Ying
Published: September 2020

This paper reports on a study involving the design of online peer assessment (PA) activities to support university students’ small-group project-based learning in an introductory course. The study aimed to investigate the influences of different types of PA in terms of the rubric (quantitative ratings), peer feedback (qualitative comments) and hybrid (a combination of the rubric and peer feedback) on students’ project performance, and to explore further students’ perspectives on online PA. The quantitative findings suggested that (a) students in the hybrid condition likely had better project performance than those in the peer feedback condition did, and (b) students in the rubric condition could perform equally well as those in both of the hybrid and peer feedback conditions. The qualitative findings suggested that besides types of assessment, other possible confounding variables that might affect performance included perceived learning benefits, professional assessment, acceptance, and the online PA system.

Authors: Lasley Woods Katharine , Nagraj Sanjana , Germano Nicholas , Koranne Ketan , T Summerfield Douglas
Published: September 2020

Introduction: Tranexamic acid (TXA) is an antifibrinolytic with applications in preventing potentially life-threatening hemorrhage.

Case Report: A 39-year-old male presented with massive hemoptysis and, during treatment with TXA, developed a transient left bundle branch block (LBBB). He was recently initiated on warfarin, but then developed a pulmonary hemorrhage. Along with standard treatments, it was decided to administer inhaled TXA to assist with hemodynamic stabilization. On persistent telemetry monitoring in the critical care unit, during administration of his first nebulized dose of TXA, a new onset LBBB was observed. Electrocardiogram (EKG) findings resolved to normal sinus rhythm within 30 minutes of TXA discontinuation. A second round of inhaled TXA was administered 8 hours later during which the LBBB reoccurred. It resolved within approximately 30 minutes without demonstration of troponin increase.

Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first described instance of EKG changes seen after administration of inhaled TXA; therefore, caution should be exercised particularly in those with concomitant cardiovascular disease.

Conclusión: La combinación de todos los elementos mencionados anteriormente hace que la institución sea considerada una de las mejores instituciones académicas del país, a pesar de que todos los estudiantes se encuentran bajo el umbral de la pobreza.
The urgent revaluation of humanities for the humanization of higher education
Authors: Cantarero Melvin
Published: September 2020

The purpose of this analysis is to show the importance of education from the university as a privileged space for knowledge and humanization, as well as the need to address humanist training in a responsible and constant way as a preferred goal. In this sense, the term educate itself acquires particular importance for the university, as the mother house of training, since it supports, cares for and feeds the 21st century professionals. Certainly, those three elements intrinsically constitute the etymological sense of educare.
This is the nature of the university, as it provides the student knowledge and skills. Therefore "education is the action of educating" (Zalazar 2016). Although the term educate is integrative, it goes beyond professionalization, a term that implies professional competencies in a specific area, such as the rules of the game for the referee or the civil engineering design, supervision and management of infrastructures.
The act of educating implies humanizing, according to the Kantian conception of education. For this philosopher from Königsberg, education is an art with the objective of searching for human perfection. This is why it is essential to educate oneself. Through education, a human being becomes a man as soon as he becomes human through education. However, for learners, there is a sense of loss of the meaning and importance of humanities, which could be replaced by a focus on those tools used for professional training, with an exclusive emphasis on the technical-scientific field.

Published: September 2020

Foreign aid when properly utilized is expected to grow the economy of the receiving nation. Over the years Nigeria has benefitted from foreign aid inflows in a bid to stabilize its economy and build its infrastructure. This study desires to look into how the various foreign aid components (humanitarian aids, project aids and programme aids) have impacted the Nigerian economic growth rate and human development index giving the prevailing corruption index in the country as a moderating variable. Ex-post facto research design was adopted and data obtained from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Statistical Bulletin from 1990 to 2019. The study adopted autoregressive distributive lag (ARDL) techniques. It was revealed that as a result of the corruption perception index, there was a significant negative effect of foreign aid on the growth rate of Nigeria economy in the long run, while having a significant positive impact on human development index as well. In short run, foreign aids had a significant positive effect on the growth rate of the Nigerian economy, but an insignificant negative effect on human development index. However, government is encouraged to ensure that foreign aid is effectively channeled into agriculture, health, education and other productive areas.
How Effective Is the Monetary Policy on the Real Sector in Nigeria?
Authors: Oladimeji Ebenezer O. , Bowale Ebenezer , Okodua Henry
Published: September 2020

In the past few years, the real sector became an area of interest in scholarly and public intellectual discuss, towards a sustainable performance of the Nigerian economy. Successive governments also realized the need to diversify the economy from high dependence on oil into deepening the real sector, through monetary policy that allows more credit flow to the real sector. In a quest to reconcile the current state of the Nigerian real sector with the renewed efforts of the government and the monetary authority to revamp the sector, this study investigated the effectiveness of this process and reexamined the transmission channels, using a structural vector autoregressive econometric approach (SVAR). The results showed that the credit channel and asset price channel are the dominant monetary policy transmission channels to the real sector. However, there was a significant effect on the effectiveness of the transmission process, when credit risk was added to the model, as it revealed vital information about the behaviour of the banking system in response to monetary policy actions of the monetary authority, during the period of high credit risk/default risk. This study, therefore, recommends that monetary authorities should always consider the credit preference of the banking system and the order of transmission channels, before embarking on any monetary policy aimed at stimulating the real sector and other sectors of the economy.

Published: September 2020

This study aimed to analyze the feasibility of building a landfill in the municipality of Rancharia-SP, aiming to meet the standards established by the National Solid Waste Policy (PNRS), reduce costs with the proper disposal of waste, reduce environmental pollution and avoid possible penalties imposed by the Environmental Company of the State of São Paulo (CETESB). A quantitative approach was carried out to verify the economic viability of investment alternatives, with the application of Economic Engineering methods, such as the Net Present Value (NPV) method. The information needed for the analysis, regarding the projections of solid waste generation by the municipality of Rancharia, the costs of outsourcing the proper disposal of waste, the costs of the life cycle stages of a landfill, were raised through research bibliographic and documentary. Thus,and considering that, so far, the municipality pays for the transshipment and the proper disposal of its waste at the landfill of a neighboring municipality (23km), it was concluded that the construction of a landfill in Rancharia -SP is the alternative more economically profitable, being able to present better returns with the realization of financing, whose rates are lower than the opportunity cost, as well as with the implementation of more efficient systems of selective collection of recyclable materials.

Authors: Chan Sow Hup Joanne , Wan Yim King Penny , Joen Miyoung
Published: September 2020

Few studies have investigated the moderating influence of brand image on customer satisfaction and loyalty. The purpose of this study was to examine the link from casino service to satisfaction (affective and cognitive satisfaction) and loyalty (revisit intention and intention to recommend). The influence of brand image as a moderator was also proposed. A quantitative survey was conducted with 240 casino visitors in Macau. The findings demonstrate that cognitively and affectively satisfied customers were more inclined to revisit and recommend a casino. These relations were stronger for customers who scored higher in brand image than for those who scored lower. The moderating influence of brand image was supported for revisit intention but was not supported for recommendation. The study provides promotional marketing strategies for the casino industry and theoretical suggestions for future study.

Published: September 2020

O desenvolvimento de software, em particular, de jogos sempre atraiu a atenção como uma porta de entrada para novos desenvolvedores entrarem no mundo da computação. Inicialmente, era necessário o conhecimento de linguagens de programação altamente complexas (por exemplo, Assembly); depois disso, foi necessário ter conhecimento em uma linguagem de alto nível como C ++ e, finalmente, recentemente o espaço parece ter sido dominado por motores, como Unity e Unreal. É interessante notar que houve uma migração na forma de desenvolvimento, deixando demandas por conhecimentos específicos de programação atingindo situações nas quais o desenvolvimento se baseia quase que exclusivamente no design do jogo desejado. Dessa forma, este trabalho busca analisar os mecanismos de desenvolvimento de jogos, buscando expor suas vantagens e desvantagens, quais recursos, comunidade, suporte e documentação, além de quais requisitos de conhecimento para que o novo desenvolvedor atual possa entrar neste mundo.

: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is the leading cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The exact molecular contributors to the development of HBV-related HCC are not yet completely understood. Recent studies demonstrated that the deregulation of the Wnt pathway is highly associated with the development of HCC. Besides, HBV is known to have roles in the deregulation of this pathway. The present study evaluated the molecular aspects of the Wnt pathway in HBV-related HCC in liver tissue samples. Viral characterization was done by identifying the HBx mutations and the assessment of intrahepatic viral load. The expression of Wnt pathway genes was assessed using real-time PCR and methylation-specific PCR. The intrahepatic viral load was significantly higher in tumor samples than in normal tissues (P = 0.0008). Aberrant expression was observed in Wnt-1, Wnt-7a, FZD2, FZD7, β-catenin, URG7, c-Myc, SFRP5, and GSK3β, among which Wnt1, FZD2, SFRP5, Gsk3β, and URG7 were associated with HBV. HBx mutations at positions I88, L116, and I127 + F132 were associated with the decreased expression of GSK3β and overexpression of URG7 and Wnt1. Alterations in the expression level of β-catenin, as well as some mutants of HBx, were correlated with the level of c-Myc. HBV-related HCC seems to be mostly coordinated with epigenetic behaviors of HBx, such a multi-functional peptide with suppressing/trans-activating functions.

Authors: Kasaian Jamal , Alesheikh Peiman , Mohammadi Ameneh
Published: September 2020

Context: Essential oils are secondary metabolites with versatile organic structures that, due to their compounds, have useful medicinal properties. There are about 250 species of the genus of Scutellaria perennial flowering plants from the Lamiaceae family. Its application for the treatment of allergy, inflammatory, hyperlipidemia, arteriosclerosis, hypertension, and hepatitis has a long history. Evidence Acquisition: Various studies on the chemical compounds of the Scutellaria genus have identified several ‎compounds, especially essentials oils. The current review is based on the evidence found in Chemical Abstract, Science Direct, Scopus, PubMed, Web of Knowledge, and Google Scholar databases. Results: Many studies on the chemical components of essential oils from the Scutellaria genus have identified several compounds. We summarized the chemical compositions and biological activities of Scutellaria essential oils. Hexadecanoic acid, germacrene D, β-caryophyllene, linalool, β-farnesene, and eugenol are the main compounds in essential oils of this genus. Despite many reports about essential oils of Scutellaria species (more than 38), a large number of species have not been studied yet. Therefore, several studies should be conducted on the chemical compounds and biological activities of unstudied Scutellaria essential oils. Conclusions: This review has summarized reports on the chemistry and biological activities of Scutellaria essential oils,‎ such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, antifeedant, phytotoxic, and acaricidal toxicities, based on the recent literature.
Human Leukocyte Antigen Examination Using Luminex®-Based Assays for Donor-Recipient Compatibility Assessment in Kidney Transplantation: Our Preliminary Experience
Authors: Birowo Ponco , Prasetyo Dimas Tri , Rasyid Nur
Published: September 2020

Background: Detection of anti-HLA antibodies (HLAabs) in organ transplantation recipients is vital to determine whether the recipient has specific HLAabs against the donor’s HLA molecules (donor-specific anti-HLA antibodies [DSA]). Methods: This preliminary study involved seven subjects: five without prior HLA sensitization and two with a history of possible HLA sensitization (kidney transplantation and pregnancy). Two of the subjects were siblings, two of the subjects were mother and son, and two of them were first cousins once removed. All the subjects underwent HLA typing, and four of the subjects underwent HLAabs assays using the sequence-specific oligonucleotide probes (SSOP) method. Results: There were 10/16 HLA matches between subjects who were siblings and between subjects who were mother and son, and 6/16 HLA matches were found between subjects who were first cousins once removed. Subjects with previous kidney transplantation developed 59 HLA-Abs toward class I and class II HLA (the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) value range: 1,003.36 to 12,404.77). HLAabs were also found among subjects without prior HLA sensitization, albeit with relatively lower MFI values. Conclusions: HLA typing and HLAabs detection for donor-recipient compatibility assessment using the SSOP method offers more detailed, semi-quantitative results. Further research involving larger subjects in cohort settings will be useful for profiling MFI cut-off values for HLAabs.
Diverzifikace předškolního vzdělávání v ČR

The book summarizes the results of the project “Diversification of Preschool Education in the Czech Republic: Inclusion, Exclusion and Social Inequalities”. The research is based on group and individual interviews, mapping the context of preschool education and direct observations in preschools. It explores the links between social inequalities and the diversifying supply of preschool education, especially in connection to parental choices and strategies related to preschool selection. The book focuses on microprocesses of (re)constructing social differences that are grounded in the ethos of the facility, as well as in parents' perceptions of their children's temperaments and their understanding of childhood and children's needs in preschool age.
Clímax: Biología y Ética en la Restauración Ambiental
Authors: Neira Hernán ,   Center for Environmental Philosophy, The University of North Texas
Published: September 2020

Las justificaciones para la restauración ambiental del Parque Nacional Pumalín, originalmente conocido como Santuario Natural de Pumalín, en Chile, se analizan desde un punto de vista filosófico y ético. La etapa ambiental a la que se debe restaurar el parque se define como una opción moral, más que ecológica, que se basa en el “clímax” como un valor a priori que respalda y guía las principales acciones de restauración llevadas a cabo en el parque. Definido filosóficamente, el clímax es tanto un valor ético como político. Para estas acciones, la salud del ecosistema se trata de la misma manera que la de un ser humano: cada sociedad define los criterios y el punto máximo de la salud, así como los esfuerzos válidos para restaurarla.
Aimé Bonpland
Authors: Nye Andrea ,   Center for Environmental Philosophy, The University of North Texas
Published: September 2020

Algunos libros recientes promueven a Alexander von Humboldt como un héroe ambiental desestimando el papel de su compañero de exploración, el botánico Aimé Bonpland, refiriéndose a él con unas pocas frases imprecisas: dejó Europa, se estableció en algún lugar de América del Sur, hizo algo de agricultura. Sostengo que los escritos de Bonpland y sus cuarenta años de desarrollo regional, que su investigación botánica, etno-farmacológica y en conservación ambiental en Argentina y Brasil, presentan un mejor modelo para una ética ambiental que el ascenso a la fama de Humboldt en Europa.
Communication Ethics: Patching a Hole in the Philosophy Curriculum
Authors: Lengbeyer Lawrence Adam ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: September 2020

This article’s objectives are two-fold: (i) to argue for making a communication ethics course a staple of virtually every undergraduate philosophy program; and (ii) to assist in bringing this vision to fruition by offering, to the interested instructor, (a) practical guidance on how such a course might be structured as a workshop so as to prompt students to do exciting independent philosophizing that capitalizes upon their vast funds of experience with everyday communication, and (b) a reasonably rich set of specific topics, readings, and questions that the course might productively address.
Højresidig hjertetrombe – en potentielt livstruende tilstand - en case report
Authors: Filikci Zuhal , Havshøj Ulrik , Abdullah S.M. Osama Bin , Nielsen Finn Erland
Published: September 2020

Højresidig hjertetrombe er en livstruende og underdiagnosticeret tilstand ved tromboemboliske komplikationer.  

Ultralydsundersøgelse af hjertet (FATE) i den akutte fase kan påvise højresidige hjertetromber, og dermed bidrage til hurtig diagnostik og behandling.

Vi præsenterer en case af en 55-årig multimorbid mand med ekkokardiografisk påvist højresidig hjertetrombe, som er yderligere kompliceret af en saddel lungeembolus.

Paternalism and the Justification of Education
Authors: Giesinger Johannes
Published: September 2020

The problem of paternalism, widely discussed in moral and political philosophy, has not received much attention in the philosophy of education. Yet Johannes Drerup claims that paternalism should be considered ‘an indigenous concept’ of educational theory, and ‘the indigenous model of justification’ in education. This essay explores Drerup’s claim, considering conceptual and normative aspects of paternalism and education. The first idea put forward in this essay is that, in the search for ‘indigenous’ educational concepts, we should focus on education, not paternalism. In a second step, however, this essay makes clear that the debate on paternalism might inspire conceptual and normative discussions in the philosophy of education. In this vein, a core notion of educational practice (as educational address in asymmetric constellations) is sketched, and it is outlined what it means to justify education. The idea is that certain forms of educational address require a specific form of (quasi-paternalistic) justification that goes beyond the justification of educational aims.
Education, Democracy and Living With Disagreement
Authors: Gregory Ian
Published: September 2020

This paper will revisit issues to do with the roles of education and an ostensibly liberal democracy in a world rife with disagreement. It seems certain that the outcome of the revisiting will be an insistence that to be true to themselves, the provision of education at both the individual and societal level must cling hard to the key notions of truth, objectivity, and rational justification in a world that perhaps more than any other time is inclined to doubt whether in any final sense these notions have much going for them. Disagreement is the challenge and spur to the reaffirming of our belief in the importance of rational debate in both the private and public spheres.

Published: September 2020

AbstrakPenelitian ini memberikan kontribusi berupa studi empiris ex ante moral hazard pada Sistem Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional (JKN) di Indonesia. Kami menemukan bahwa kepemilikan Program JKN memiliki hubungan negatif dengan aktivitas fisik dan hubungan positif dengan pengeluran rokok individu. Selanjutnya dengan menghitung efek marginal kami mendapatkan bahwa Program JKN mengurangi probabilitas individu untuk melakukan aktivitas fisik sebesar 2.7% dan mengurangi intensitas melakukan aktivitas fisik. Program JKN juga ditemukan berhubungan positif pengeluaran rokok individu bagi perokok. Hasil analisis menyatakan bahwa ada indikasi terjadinya ex ante moral hazard pada Program JKN karena terdapat hubungan yang positif antara kepemilikan JKN dan probabilitas individu melakukan perilaku kesehatan berisiko seperti aktivitas fisik dan perilaku merokok.Abstract This paper contributes to the empirical evidence of ex ante moral hazard on the National Health Insurance System (NHIS) in Indonesia. We find that JKN participation has a negative relationship with physical activity and positive relationship with smoking spending. Furthermore, by calculating marginal effect we obtained that JKN participation reduce the probability of physical activity by 2.7% and also reduce the intensity of individual physical activity. For the smoker, JKN Participation is expected increase in their spending for smoking. The result indicates that there is an evidence of ex ante moral hazard since there is a positive relationship between JKN participation and risky health behaviors such as physical activity and smoking behavior.

Background: Many authors have highlighted the role of muscle strength imbalance around the ankle in the development of recurrent clubfoot following Ponseti treatment. Nevertheless, this possible underlying mechanism behind recurrences has not been investigated sufficiently to date. This study aimed to explore whether there is a relationship between Achilles tendon elongation and recurrent metatarsus adductus deformity in children with unilateral clubfeet treated by Ponseti method. Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed on 20 children (14 boys, 6 girls; mean age: 7 years; age range: 5-9) with a recurrent metatarsus adductus deformity treated by the Ponseti method for unilateral idiopathic clubfoot. At the final follow-up, isometric muscle strength was measured using a portable, hand-held dynamometer in reciprocal muscle groups of the ankle. The length of the tendons around the ankle was ultrasonographically measured. Results: The plantar flexion/dorsiflexion ratio was lower on the involved side (p = 0.001). No significant differences in the strength ratio of inversion/eversion were found (p = 0.4). No difference was observed in lengths of tibialis anterior and posterior tendon (p = 0,1), but Achilles tendon was longer on the involved side (p = 0.001; p < 0.01). A significant negative correlation was discovered between involved/uninvolved Achilles tendon length ratios and involved/uninvolved plantar flexion strength ratios (r = −0.524; p = 0.02) Conclusions: Achilles tendon elongation may be a contributor to the muscle imbalance in clubfeet with the relapsed forefoot adduction treated by the Ponseti technique.
Type-Logical Syntax
Authors: Kubota Yusuke , Levine Robert D.
Published: September 2020

A novel logic-based framework for representing the syntax–semantics interface of natural language, applicable to a range of phenomena.

In this book, Yusuke Kubota and Robert Levine propose a type-logical version of categorial grammar as a viable alternative model of natural language syntax and semantics. They show that this novel logic-based framework is applicable to a range of phenomena—especially in the domains of coordination and ellipsis—that have proven problematic for traditional approaches.

The type-logical syntax the authors propose takes derivations of natural language sentences to be proofs in a particular kind of logic governing the way words and phrases are combined. This logic builds on and unifies two deductive systems from the tradition of categorial grammar; the resulting system, Hybrid Type-Logical Categorial Grammar (Hybrid TLCG) enables comprehensive approaches to coordination (gapping, dependent cluster coordination, and right-node raising) and ellipsis (VP ellipsis, pseudogapping, and extraction/ellipsis interaction). It captures a number of intricate patterns of interaction between scopal operators and seemingly incomplete constituents that are frequently found in these two empirical domains. Kubota and Levine show that the hybrid calculus underlying their framework incorporates key analytic ideas from competing approaches in the generative syntax literature to offer a unified and systematic treatment of data that have posed considerable difficulties for previous accounts. Their account demonstrates that logic is a powerful tool for analyzing the deeper principles underlying the syntax and semantics of natural language.
