The Circular RNA Landscape of Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells During Osteogenesis
Authors: Zheng Yunfei , Li Xiaobei , Huang Yiping , Jia Lingfei , Li Weiran
Published: June 2017

Background: The present study aims to investigate the distinct expression pattern of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) during osteogenesis.

Methods: PDLSCs were isolated and cultured in osteogenic medium. Total RNA was extracted from cells at day 0 (D0), day 3 (D3), day 7 (D7), and day 14 (D14) and submitted to RNA‐sequencing to detect expression profiles of circRNAs, messenger RNAs (mRNAs), and microRNAs (miRNAs). Real‐time quantitative reverse‐transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT‐PCR) was performed to validate expression of circRNAs and miRNAs. Differential expression analysis and gene ontology analysis were performed. A circRNA‐miRNA‐mRNA network was constructed to reveal the potential regulatory role of circRNAs.

Results: A total of 12,693 circRNA transcripts were detected, and circRNAs displayed stage‐specific expression. Expression of four well‐known circRNAs was validated by qRT‐PCR. In total, 118 circRNAs were differentially expressed at D3, 128 circRNAs were differentially expressed at D7, and 139 circRNAs were differentially expressed at D14 compared with D0. Host genes of differentially expressed circRNAs were enriched in cytoplasmic or membrane‐bound vesicles and extracellular matrix, indicating their potential roles in modulating biogenesis of extracellular vesicles. Moreover, mRNAs that were potentially regulated by circRNAs were enriched in bone‐formation‐associated processes, including extracellular matrix organization, cell differentiation, and bone morphogenetic protein signaling pathway.

Conclusion: Expression profiles of circRNAs were significantly altered during osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs, providing a clue for future studies on the role of circRNAs in osteoblast differentiation.

Indicativo II da família Tupi Guarani
Authors: Praça Walkiria Neiva , Magalhães Marina Maria Silva , Cruz Aline da
Published: June 2017

Este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar uma nova interpretação para a estrutura tradicionalmente conhecida como Indicativo II, no âmbito da família Tupí-Guaraní, um subgrupo do tronco linguístico Tupí, por meio da análise de quatro línguas da família: Tupinambá, Apyãwa, Guajá e Nheengatú. O estudo apresenta a hipótese de que as expressões adverbiais deslocadas para a primeira posição da sentença ativam um tipo de nominalização do predicado que na oração básica funcionava como o predicado principal. Além disso, apresentamos uma possível interpretação para o desenvolvimento histórico de tais construções e relacionamos suas características a diferentes graus de preservação do padrão tipológico omnipredicativo. Como resultado, observamos que a redução da produtividade da referida construção parece estar associada à perda gradativa das propriedades omnipredicativas das línguas.
Tipologia morfossintática da negação nas línguas do tronco Tupi
Authors: Dietrich Wolf
Published: June 2017

Neste estudo, se descrevem, em todas as línguas do tronco tupi acessíveis, com a inclusão da família Tupi-Guarani, as diferentes funções de negação nas orações declarativas e existenciais, nos predicados nominalizados, nas proibitivas e na negação de constituintes. Analisam-se estas funções de negação numa tipologia que considera o número de funções negativas e numa segunda tipologia que se estabelece com respeito à coesão morfológica das expressões negativas. Esta pode ser maior (morfologia sintética) ou menor (morfologia analítica). Resulta que as línguas Tupi-Guarani, na sua maioria, desenvolveram um maior grau de síntese do que membros das outras famílias Tupi.
Esquemas de conceptualización del tiempo en mapudungun
Authors: Parra Rodrigo Gonzalo Becerra , Cerda Alonso Joaquin Soto
Published: June 2017

This paper presents an analisys of time conceptualizations in Mapuche language. The purpose of this research is to contrast the model that proposes the universal existence of related schemata for time conceptualization, usually simplified into one single schema, called “spatialization” of time. In order to do so, we use textual and ethnographical methods. On the one hand, we analise expressions of two texts from the beggining of 20th century, where temporal expressions in Mapuche language and their conceptual structures are identified. On the other hand, we conducted semi-structured interviews with eleven Mapuche adults in the ethnic comunnity of Llaguepulli, Región de la Araucanía, Chile. The results show that Mapuche language produces spatialized expressions of time, that are consistent with the conceptual mapping time events are things in space (Núñez 1999), usually in relation to event-based time intervals (Sinha et al. 2011). However, we also note the centrality of a schema merely related to the notion of transience (Evans 2013), endorsing the data that support that time experience is inherently temporal rather than spatial. In conclusion, we claim that the best way to understand time conceptualizations in Mapuche language is as a diverse phenomenon, through al least five conceptual schemata, in some of which it is still possible to recognize specific sub-schemata.

Este estudo discute algumas tendências encontradas nas implementações fonéticas das consoantes nasais /m, n, ŋ/ na família Tupí-Guaraní. Partiu-se de uma análise fonético-acústica das línguas Parakanã e Tembé (Ramo IV), Urubu-Ka’apor e Wayampi (Ramo VIII), Asuriní do Xingu, Anambé e Araweté (Ramo V). Constatou-se a presença de nasais plenas, com ou sem explosão oral, e nasais parcialmente oralizadas, pré-oralizadas e pós-oralizadas. Todos as línguas manifestaram nasais plenas, mas a oralização parcial manifestou-se somente nos ramos IV e V, com uma diferença: as línguas do ramo IV, Tembé e Parakanã, apresentaram variantes nasais plenas e pré-oralizadas; e as línguas pertencentes ao ramo V, Anambé e Asuriní do Xingu, apresentaram variantes nasais plenas e pós-oralizadas. Nenhuma língua manifestou a combinação dos três tipos juntos. Os resultados obtidos apoiam a divisão dos ramos da família Tupí-Guaraní proposta por Rodrigues e Cabral (2002).

Productions and Perceptions of Apologies: Intercultural Comparisons
Authors: Wang Xin
Published: June 2017

The productions and perceptions of apologies vary from one language to another in terms of linguistic realization patterns, strategic preferences, and evaluative opinions. Accordingly, these variations motivate the investigation of apology use and its perceptions in different languages. By comparing productions and perceptions of apologies among college students who speak Arabic, Russian, English and Chinese languages, the current study reports on the students’ various strategic preferences (i.e., explicit or direct apology strategies, less explicit or indirect apology strategies and strategy combinations) and their diverging tendencies to evaluate the im/politeness of apologies. The results have confirmed that although the concept of apology is universal, its applications and interpretations can be divergent across various language groups and within each language group. These observed discrepancies can be attributed to sociocultural influences (e.g., face need concerns and culturally-specific perceptions of sincerity), gender-related differences (e.g., explicit and indirect apology strategies used more frequently by females than males) and situational characteristics (e.g., positive vs. negative face threatened situations, and in-group vs. out-group memberships). In addition, the author believes that this synthesis study will provide certain implications for ESL/EFL teaching and learning by enhancing the awareness of intercultural communicators to better make inferences from the effects of the three responsible factors on their use of apologies.
Relationships between Parent-Adolescent Communication, Acculturation, and Sexual Knowledge on Latino Adolescent Sexual Behavior: A Systematic Review
Authors: Gaioso Vanessa Pirani , Wilson Lynda Law , Villarruel Antonia Maria , Childs Gwendolyn Denice
Published: June 2017

Latino adolescents in the United States are more likely to engage in early and risky sexual behavior compared to adolescents from other racial and ethnic groups. The quantity and quality of parent-adolescent sexual communication has been suggested as the best predictor on adolescent sexual behavior. Method: A systematic literature review of studies was conducted with relationships between selected parental, adolescent and cultural variables and Latino adolescents’ intentions to engage in sexual behavior, derived from the Parent-Based Expansion of the Theory of Planned Behavior (PETPB). Results: From 20 studies reviewed, only 12 reported findings specifically to Latinos living in the United States. There was consistency across these studies supporting the relationships between adolescents’ attitudes, subjective norms, and self-efficacy toward risky sexual behavior and adolescents’ intentions to have sexual intercourse and to use condoms. However, few studies examined any predictors of parent-adolescent sexual communication guided by the PETPB that included psychological factors and antecedent factors. Conclusion: Future studies should be longitudinal and should include a larger sample of Latino with more variation in levels of acculturation in order to generalize the findings to the diverse Latino immigrant population living in the United States.
Reconnoitering the Nexus between Development and Sustainable Development
Authors: Solaja Oludele , Obatunde Bright
Published: June 2017

Development and sustainable development are two concepts gaining the attention of scholars, historians and policy makers in recent times. This is because they represent what people and societies across the world today sincerely desired. Every human being or human society deserve improvement in quality of livelihood, health care system, access to food, housing, security, clothing and many other indices of development in a sustainable manner. Based on this momentum, this paper examines the nexus between development and sustainable development. The paper is divided into four sections. The first section spots the conceptual issue woven around the term development as well as sustainable development in literature. The second section clarifies the two concepts (development and sustainable development) and the main perspectives on development were discussed. It also identifies the common and distinctive features between the concept of development and sustainable development. The third section then presents a conceptual framework of analysis on the nexus of between development and sustainable development. Finally, the paper concludes that the duos (development and sustainable development) are two-side of a coin and they complement each other. This is due to the fact that development is people oriented hence it must be sustainable so as to ensure that the advancement of current generation does not deny future generation the opportunity to develop.

Published: June 2017

Nilam banyak dibudidayakan di Indonesia, dan lebih dari 80% produksi minyak nilam dunia dipasok dari Indonesia. Masalah utama dalam budidaya nilam di Indonesia adalah penyakit, seperti penyakit layu bakteri, budok dan nematoda. Sampai saat ini varietas tahan terhadap penyakit, khususnya budok, belum diperoleh. Tanaman tahan dapat diperoleh dengan teknik transformasi gen. Transkripsi faktor WRKY telah diketahui dapat meregulasi serangan beberapa patogen penyebab penyakit tanaman. Gen OsWRKY76 terletak pada segmen kromosom 9 tanaman padi yang telah diidentifikasi terkait dengan ketahanan berspektrum luas. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengintroduksikan konstruksi gen OsWRKY76 yang berasal dari padi ke dalam tanaman nilam melalui bantuan Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Pada percobaan pertama, tanaman nilam ditransformasi dengan A. tumefaciens strain EHA 105 yang mengandung gen OsWRKY76. Perlakuan terdiri atas waktu induksi eksplan yang akan ditransformasi (pre-kultur) di dalam medium MS, yaitu 5 dan 7 hari, dan waktu inokulasi A. tumefaciens yaitu 10 dan 20 menit. Pada percobaan kedua, analisis molekuler untuk mengkonfirmasi keberadaan gen OsWRKY76 dalam tanaman nilam menggunakan teknik PCR dengan primer hptII. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan waktu induksi eksplan terbaik sebelum transformasi adalah 5 hari, dengan perendaman di dalam suspensi A. tumefaciens selama 10 menit. Dari transformasi tersebut telah dihasilkan 187 kalus independen. Hasil analisis PCR terhadap galur-galur putatif transgenik independen, lima galur (T1, T8, T10, T11, T13) positif mengandung gen hptII, yaitu gen penanda ketahanan terhadap antibiotik higromisin yang berada satu konstruk dengan gen OsWRKY76. Hasil tersebut menunjukkan bahwa gen OsWRKY76 yang berasal dari padi dapat diintroduksikan pada tanaman nilam dan berpeluang sebagai kandidat tahan terhadap penyakit utama.
CENDAWAN ENDOFIT AKAR LADA UNTUK MENINGKATKAN PERTUMBUHAN DAN MENEKAN BUSUK PANGKAL BATANG BENIH LADA
Authors: Wahyuno Dono , Florina Dini , Manohara Dyah
Published: June 2017

Busuk pangkal batang (BPB) merupakan penyakit tular tanah yang disebabkan oleh Phytophthora capsici. Pemanfaatan agens hayati dianggap pendekatan yang efisien untuk penyakit BPB. Cendawan endofit mampu meningkatkan pertumbuhan dan ketahanan tanaman terhadap cekaman biotik dan abiotik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui potensi cendawan endofit asal akar lada terhadap pertumbuhan dan kemampuannya menekan penyakit BPB pada benih lada. Cendawan endofit diperoleh dengan mengisolasi akar lada menggunakan medium akar kentang dekstrosa (AKD) yang diberi kloramfenikol dan rose bengal. Isolat cendawan yang diperoleh dikarakterisasi dengan melakukan pengamatan morfologi, uji tantang terhadap P. capsici dan uji patogenisitas pada daun lada. Cendawan endofit diinokulasikan pada akar benih lada dengan cara merendam perakaran lada umur 10 minggu ke dalam suspensi cendawan endofit, kemudian ditanam dalam tanah steril untuk diamati. Kandungan hormon IAA dan GA3 di dalam akar diukur menggunakan TLC scanner satu bulan setelah diinokulasi. Inokulasi P. capsici dilakukan dengan menyiram 50 ml suspensi zoospora (106 zoospora/ml) di perakaran lada yang sebelumnya telah diinokulasi cendawan endofit. Benih lada yang hidup diamati satu bulan setelah inokulasi. Hasil pengamatan menunjukkan enam isolat tidak berpengaruh nyata pada parameter jumlah daun, buku, dan jumlah tanaman yang mati. Benih lada yang telah  diinokulasi  cendawan endofit E-5, E-7 dan E-15 mempunyai bobot kering akar berturut-turut 0,83; 0,84 dan 0,81 g dan berbeda nyata dari perlakuan lainnya. Kandungan hormon IAA relatif tinggi dibanding kandungan GA3 di dalam akar yang diinokulasi dengan ketiga isolat tersebut. Benih lada yang diinokulasi ketiga isolat tersebut lebih dari 80% yang hidup, pada satu bulan setelah diinokulasi P. capsici.
Nitrous Oxide and Methane Fluxes from Urine and Dung Deposited on Kenyan Pastures
Authors: Tully Katherine L. , Abwanda Sheila , Thiong'o Margaret , Mutuo Paul M. , Rosenstock Todd S.
Published: June 2017

Livestock keeping is ubiquitous in tropical Africa. Urine and dung from livestock release greenhouse gases (GHGs), such as nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4), to the atmosphere. However, the extent of GHG's impact is uncertain due to the lack of in situ measurements in the region. Here we measured N2O and CH4emissions from cow urine and dung depositions in two Kenyan pastures that received different amounts of rainfall using static chambers across wet and dry seasons. Cumulative N2O emissions were greater under dung+urine and urine‐only patches (P <0.0001), more than three times higher in the wet compared with the dry season (P <0.0001), and higher in the farm receiving higher rainfall overall (P <0.0001). Cumulative CH4emissions differed across treatments (P= 0.012), driven primarily by soil CH4uptake from the urine‐only treatment. Cumulative N2O emissions were positively related to N input rate in excreta. However, the relationship was linear during the dry season (r2=0.99;P =0.001) and exponential during the wet season (r2=0.99;P< 0.0001). Nitrous oxide emission factors were 0.05% (dry season) and 0.18% (wet season) of N in urine and dung+urine, which is less than 10% of the IPCC Default Tier 1 emission factor of 2%. We predict that emissions from cattle urine in Kenya are approximately 1.7 Gg N2O–N yr−1(FAO estimates 11.9 Gg N2O–N yr−1). Our findings suggest that current estimates may overestimate the contribution of excreta to national GHG emissions and that emission factors from urine and dung need to account for agroecosystems with distinct wet and dry seasons.

Core Ideas

Urine and dung deposited on pasture are a significant agricultural source of GHGs.

N2O emissions from African cattle excreta were higher in the wet than dry season.

Urine and the combination of urine and dung had the highest N2O fluxes across seasons.

N2O emissions were positively correlated with excreta N.

N2O emission factors from excreta were one‐tenth that predicted by the IPCC.

Insurance Contract in the Civil Code after the AmendmentSummaryAfter many years of work on an extensive reform of the economic Insurance law on 22 May 2003 four new acts were passed. O ne of the aims of the reform was to set in order provisions applying to an Insurance contract, which so far had been regulated not only in the Civil Code (art. 805-834), but also in the Act of 28 July 1990 about an insurance activity (art. 6-8).A new Insurance Activity Act which came into force on l January 2004 in principle does not include legal norms applying to the insurance contract. These norms - with necessary modifications - have been transferred into the Civil Code. Subject to art. 233 of the Act relevant modifications have been introduced to art. 807 § 2, art. 812 § 1-8, art. 817 § 2 and art. 822 § 1-4. Moreover, two new regulations have been implemented, namely art. 824 § 1-2 and art. 384 § 5. The above-mentioned changes are of great importance and can be called „a small amendment of the insurance contract in the Civil Code”.The author makes an argument that the recent changes of the insurance contract are far insufficient from the point o f view of a modern insurance business.

Tendencies on Internal Insurance Market vis a vis Harmonization of European Insurance Contract LawSummaryIn the paper, the authors describe the main contemporary process which takes place w ithin the insurance contract law in Europe - viz the Euro-merge of private law, as well as the evolution of the insurance contract law during the last decades. The process o f the unification of European private law will also affect the insurance contract law. First of all the impact o f the development o f the ideas shaped in a form of general contract law drafted as the Restatement of the Principles of European Contract Law by the „Lando Group” is undeniable. These rules also applicable to some extent to insurance contracts show that the process of the unification o f insurance contract law cannot be stopped and that it will constantly develop. There can also be observed a process of a specific European com m on law being developed in Europe in different branches, such as product liability, consumer protection, etc. This already influences the harmonization o f the European insurance contract law, and the obstacles to harmonization, existing even ten years ago, have disappeared. The Restatement o f Insurance Contract Law being in preparation by the „Group of Innsbruck” will probably constitute a basis for a future codification o f the insurance contract law.

Background and objectives

Outcomes for transplants from living unrelated donors are of particular interest in kidney paired donation (KPD) programs where exchanges can be arranged between incompatible donor-recipient pairs or chains created from nondirected/altruistic donors.

Design, setting, participants, & measurements

Using Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients data, we analyzed 232,705 recipients of kidney-alone transplants from 1998 to 2012. Graft failure rates were estimated using Cox models for recipients of kidney transplants from living unrelated, living related, and deceased donors. Models were adjusted for year of transplant and donor and recipient characteristics, with particular attention to mismatches in age, sex, human leukocyte antigens (HLA), body size, and weight.

Results

The dependence of graft failure on increasing donor age was less pronounced for living-donor than for deceased-donor transplants. Male donor–to–male recipient transplants had lower graft failure, particularly better than female to male (5%–13% lower risk). HLA mismatch was important in all donor types. Obesity of both the recipient (8%–18% higher risk) and donor (5%–11% higher risk) was associated with higher graft loss, as were donor-recipient weight ratios of <75%, compared with transplants where both parties were of similar weight (9%–12% higher risk). These models are used to create a calculator of estimated graft survival for living donors.

Conclusions

This calculator provides useful information to donors, candidates, and physicians of estimated outcomes and potentially in allowing candidates to choose among several living donors. It may also help inform candidates with compatible donors on the advisability of joining a KPD program.

Authors: De Marchi Leonardo
Published: June 2017

Após a desconfiança em relação à viabilidade de um comércio de fonogramas digitais, empresas eletrônicas têm apresentado novos modelos de negócio que geram valor para o acesso a esse tipo de conteúdo digital. A economia do acesso que as caracteriza exige que tais empresas disputem mercados ao redor do mundo. Na medida em que começam a operar em determinado mercado nacional, elas inserem as obras de artistas, gravadoras e editoras locais em seu sistema virtual e global de informação. Isso apresenta uma série de potencialidades comerciais, assim como desafios culturais. Neste artigo, apresenta-se um estudo de caso explanatório do mercado fonográfico brasileiro, entre 2010 e 2015. Baseando-se em entrevistas com agentes da indústria da música, o objetivo do artigo é entender a nova composição de forças e as tensões resultantes que caracterizam o mercado fonográfico brasileiro na era digital. Nas considerações finais, apontam-se desafios para a indústria da música, assim como para as políticas de comunicação e cultura no Brasil.

Published: June 2017

In this paper, a dynamic multi-objective linear integer programming model is
proposed to optimally distribute a firm?s advertising budget among multiple
products and media in a segmented market. To make the media plan responsive
to the changes in the market, the distribution is carried out dynamically by
dividing the planning horizon into smaller periods. The model incorporates
the effect of the previous period advertising reach on the current period
(taken through retention factor), and it also considers cross-product effect
of simultaneously advertising different products. An application of the model
is presented for an insurance firm that markets five different products,
using goal programming approach.

Authors: Nucera Riccardo , Lo Giudice Antonino , Bellocchio Angela Mirea , Spinuzza Paola , Caprioglio Alberto , Perillo Letizia , Matarese Giovanni , Cordasco Giancarlo
Published: June 2017

Objective:

To analyze the buccal bone thickness, bone depth, and cortical bone depth of the mandibular buccal shelf (MBS) to determine the most suitable sites of the MBS for mini-screw insertion.

Materials and Methods:

The sample included cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) records of 30 adult subjects (mean age 30.9 ± 7.0 years) evaluated retrospectively. All CBCT examinations were performed with the i-CAT CBCT scanner. Each exam was converted into DICOM format and processed with OsiriX Medical Imaging software. Proper view sections of the MBS were obtained for quantitative and qualitative evaluation of bone characteristics.

Results:

Mesial and distal second molar root scan sections showed enough buccal bone for mini-screw insertion. The evaluation of bone depth was performed at 4 and 6 mm buccally to the cementoenamel junction. The mesial root of the mandibular second molar at 4 and 6 mm showed average bone depths of 18.51 mm and 14.14 mm, respectively. The distal root of the mandibular second molar showed average bone depths of 19.91 mm and 16.5 mm, respectively. All sites showed cortical bone depth thickness greater than 2 mm.

Conclusions:

Specific sites of the MBS offer enough bone quantity and adequate bone quality for mini-screw insertion. The insertion site with the optimal anatomic characteristics is the buccal bone corresponding to the distal root of second molar, with screw insertion 4 mm buccal to the cementoenamel junction. Considering the cortical bone thickness of optimal insertion sites, pre-drilling is always recommended in order to avoid high insertion torque.
Patients With Diabetes Without Significant Angiographic Coronary Artery Disease Have the Same Risk of Myocardial Infarction as Patients Without Diabetes in a Real-World Population Receiving Appropriate Prophylactic Treatment

Published: June 2017

OBJECTIVE

The risk of myocardial infarction (MI) in patients with diabetes is greater than for patients without diabetes. Consequently, prophylactic treatment is recommended for patients with diabetes and risk factors for ischemic heart disease. We aimed to estimate the risk of adverse cardiac events in patients with and without diabetes with and without coronary artery disease (CAD) after coronary angiography (CAG).

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

A population-based cohort of patients registered in the Western Denmark Heart Registry who underwent CAG between 1 January 2003 and 31 December 2012 was stratified according to the presence or absence of obstructive CAD and diabetes. End points were death, cardiac death, and MI. Unadjusted and adjusted rate ratios (RRs) were calculated by using patients without diabetes and without CAD as the reference group.

RESULTS

We included 93,866 patients of whom 12,544 (13.4%) had diabetes at the time of CAG. Median follow-up was 4.1 years. Patients with and without diabetes without obstructive CAD had the same adjusted risk of death (RR 1.03 [95% CI 0.92–1.15]), cardiac death (RR 1.21 [95% CI 0.90–1.64]), and MI (RR 0.88 [95% CI 0.65–1.17]). Patients with diabetes without CAD were more often treated with statins (75.3% vs. 46.0%) and aspirin (65.7% vs. 52.7%) than patients without diabetes and CAD.

CONCLUSIONS

In a real-world population, patients with diabetes with high rates of statin and aspirin treatment had the same risk of cardiovascular events as patients without diabetes in the absence of angiographically significant CAD.

Neighbourhood built environment characteristics associated with different types of physical activity in Canadian adults
Authors: McCormack Gavin R.
Published: June 2017

Introduction

The aim of this study was to estimate the associations between neighbourhood
built environment characteristics and transportation walking (TW), recreational
walking (RW), and moderate-intensity (MPA) and vigorous-intensity physical
activity (VPA) in adults independent of sociodemographic characteristics and residential
self-selection (i.e. the reasons related to physical activity associated with a person’s
choice of neighbourhood).

Methods

In 2007 and 2008, 4423 Calgary adults completed land-based telephone interviews
capturing physical activity, sociodemographic characteristics and reasons for residential
self-selection. Using spatial data, we estimated population density, proportion of
green space, path/cycleway length, business density, bus stop density, city-managed
tree density, sidewalk length, park type mix and recreational destination mix within a
1.6 km street network distance from the participants’ geolocated residential postal code.
Generalized linear models estimated the associations between neighbourhood built
environment characteristics and weekly neighbourhood-based physical activity participation
(≥ 10 minutes/week; odds ratios [ORs]) and, among those who reported participation,
duration of activity (unstandardized beta coefficients [B]).

Results

The sample included more women (59.7%) than men (40.3%) and the mean
(standard deviation) age was 47.1 (15.6) years. TW participation was associated with
intersection (OR = 1.11; 95% CI: 1.03 to 1.20) and business (OR = 1.52; 1.29 to 1.78)
density, and sidewalk length (OR = 1.19; 1.09 to 1.29), while TW minutes was associated
with business (B = 19.24 minutes/week; 11.28 to 27.20) and tree (B = 6.51; 2.29
to 10.72 minutes/week) density, and recreational destination mix (B = −8.88 minutes/
week; −12.49 to −5.28). RW participation was associated with path/cycleway length
(OR = 1.17; 1.05 to 1.31). MPA participation was associated with recreational destination
mix (OR = 1.09; 1.01 to 1.17) and sidewalk length (OR = 1.10; 1.02 to 1.19); however,
MPA minutes was negatively associated with population density (B = −8.65 minutes/
week; −15.32 to −1.98). VPA participation was associated with sidewalk length
(OR = 1.11; 1.02 to 1.20), path/cycleway length (OR = 1.12; 1.02 to 1.24) and proportion
of neighbourhood green space (OR = 0.89; 0.82 to 0.98). VPA minutes was associated
with tree density (B = 7.28 minutes/week; 0.39 to 14.17).

Conclusion

Some neighbourhood built environment characteristics appear important
for supporting physical activity participation while others may be more supportive of
increasing physical activity duration. Modifications that increase the density of utilitarian
destinations and the quantity of available sidewalks in established neighbourhoods
could increase overall levels of neighbourhood-based physical activity.

Published: June 2017

Introduction

A lack of identifiers in health administrative databases limits our understanding
of the cancer burden in First Nations. This study compares cancer risk factors
and screening between First Nations in Ontario (on and off reserve) and non-Aboriginal
Ontarians using two unique health surveys.

Methods

We measured age-standardized prevalence estimates using the First Nations
Regional Health Survey (RHS) Phase 2, 2008/10 (for First Nations on reserve) and the
Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS), 2007–2013 (for First Nations off reserve
and non-Aboriginal Ontarians). We used prevalence rate ratios (RR) and Pearson’s chisquare
tests for differences in proportions to compare estimates between First Nations
(on and off reserve) and non-Aboriginal Ontarians.

Results

A higher proportion of First Nation men, women and adolescents on reserve
smoked (RR = 1.97, 2.78 and 7.21 respectively) and were obese (RR = 1.73, 2.33 and
3.29 respectively) compared to their non-Aboriginal counterparts. Similar patterns were
observed for First Nations off reserve. Frequent binge drinking was also more prevalent
among First Nation men and women living on reserve (RR = 1.28 and 2.22, respectively)
and off reserve (RR = 1.70 and 1.45, respectively) than non-Aboriginal
Ontarians. First Nation men and women on reserve were about half as likely to consume
fruit at least twice per day and vegetables at least twice per day compared to
non-Aboriginal men and women (RR = 0.53 and 0.54, respectively). Pap test uptake
was similar across all groups, while First Nation women on reserve were less likely to
have had a mammogram in the last five years than non-Aboriginal women (RR = 0.85).

Conclusion

First Nations, especially those living on reserve, have an increased risk for
cancer and other chronic diseases compared to non-Aboriginal Ontarians. These results
provide evidence to support policies and programs to reduce the future burden of cancer
and other chronic diseases in First Nations in Ontario.
El reciente resurgimiento del confucianismo popular en China continental: el redescubrimiento de los confucianistas clásicos, las academias y los ritos
Authors: Chen Yong
Published: June 2017

Este artículo investiga los recientes movimientos confucianos en la China continental examinando tres aspectos específicos: la campaña de recitar los clásicos confucianos, el renacimiento de las academias confucianas, y la restauración de los ritos confucianos. También examina el fenómeno de Jiang Qing, el llamado fundamentalista confuciano, que ha sido una figura central detrás de todos los movimientos confucianos. Con el préstamo de las teorías de Anthony Wallace y de Rodney Stark en el fundamentalismo religioso, el artículo argumenta que las condiciones sociopolíticas y culturales de la China contemporánea han allanado el camino para el surgimiento de los movimientos tradicionalistas, con el confuciano como un ejemplo, y que la combinación de filosofía fundamentalista de Jiang Qing y su autodisciplina estricta moral ha dotado a la iniciativa confuciana con un toque de sinceridad religiosa.

España y Francia en el sur de Marruecos: intereses, delimitación de fronteras y contencioso territorial, 1900-1912
Authors: Martínez Milán Jesús María
Published: June 2017

Este artículo analiza las complejas relaciones franco-españolas en el marco de las conversaciones encaminadas a fijar las fronteras en el sur del imperio cherifiano en los años previos a la proclamación del protectorado. Aunque los intereses de ambos países en la región se remontan a mediados del siglo xix, no será hasta el primer decenio de la centuria siguiente cuando la tensión entre ambas potencias en la zona alcance niveles desconocidos. La intervención alemana y el posterior acuerdo franco-alemán acabaron con las esperanzas de Madrid de consolidar una unidad territorial entre su colonia del Sahara occidental y la zona sur del protectorado español.

El árabe ceutí, una lengua minorizada de España
Authors: Moscoso García Francisco
Published: June 2017

Se define qué es el árabe ceutí partiendo de datos ofrecidos por investigaciones recientes y reflexiones propias. Se trata de la lengua de 42% de la población bilingüe española de la Ciudad Autónoma de Ceuta. Pertenece al área dialectal del norte de Marruecos, pero se distingue del árabe marroquí por dos rasgos fundamentales: los préstamos del español y la alternancia de códigos. Su ausencia en la administración y la educación le confieren el rasgo de “minorizada”. Se propone el uso del árabe ceutí moderno, un registro enriquecido con préstamos del árabe clásico, como instrumento de comunicación y enseñanza en las instituciones públicas; por último, se da el ejemplo de tres lenguas que fueron minorizadas y que se han convertido en oficiales: el español, el griego y el maltés, y se presenta una serie de documentos jurídicos y educativos que apoyan la normalización y codificación del árabe ceutí.
