Termination of the nuclear and radiation legacy of Russia: scientific basis for the radiation-hygienic regulation
Authors: Romanovich I. K.
Published: October 2019

For the provision of the radiation safety of the public during the termination of the nuclear and radiation legacy within the boundaries of the Federal Targeted Program “Provision of the nuclear and radiation safety for 2016-2020 and up to 2030”, the following documents were developed: draft of the sanitary rules “Hygienic requirements for the remediation of the facilities and territories contaminated by man-made and natural radionuclides due to the past activities of the facilities of nuclear and non-nuclear branches of industry” and three methodical guidelines on the survey of the remediated territories, buildings and structures and assessment of the doses of the public residing in the zone of influence of the nuclear legacy facilities. The sanitary rules were based on the directions of the future use of the remediated territories, buildings and structures as well as on the radiation-hygienic safety criteria. It was assumed that dose criteria for the public considering the quota (0.3 mSv/year) is applied for remediated sites of the nuclear facilities (radiation facilities). The remediation of the radioactively contaminated areas with the residing public is based on the requirements of the Federal Law № 1244-1, 15.05.1991 “On the social protection of the citizens exposed due to the Chernobyl NPP accident”. Originally the drafts of documents were developed considering the approval in 2019 of the new Norms of the Radiation Safety – 2019, harmonized with the international recommendations and standards. Due to prolongation of the existing Norms of the Radiation Safety 99//2009 for the extra five years, the drafts of the regulations are adapted to the existing NRB 99/2009 and OSPORB 99/2010.
Radiation situation on the territory of the peaceful nuclear explosion «Globus-1» after performing the rehabilitation works
Authors: Khramtsov E. V.
Published: October 2019

The article provides data on the radiation situation on the research of the year 2018 territory adjacent to the site of the peaceful nuclear explosion “Globus-1” after carrying out rehabilitation works (2014-2015), made with the purpose of removal accidental contamination. We analyzed the dynamics of radiation situation during the period from 2008 to 2018 year and assessed the effectiveness of rehabilitation works on basic indicators: the values of the dose of technogenic radionuclides content in soil, water and other objects the environment. According to the results of comparing the number of measurements exceeding the dose rate of 50 nSv/h (background value for outside contamination 2014 years) in samples of 2014 and 2018 years found that 80% of exceedances, enshrined in the year 2014, percentage of exceedances in 2018 year amounted to only 3%. Another performance indicator associated with the feature to the rehabilitation of this object. A large number of low level activity in soil was inappropriate to remove the burial and the decision to use the ground as a lower layer of reclamation was justified. Research has shown that in the spectral composition of gamma background rehabilitated territory intensity peaks of caesium-137 is many times greater than background levels. In selected soil samples recorded elevated levels of cesium-137 (up to 32500 Bq/kg on wet weight), and collected on such soil samples of herbs have elevated concentrations of cesium-137 (up to 2000 Bq/kg) and strontium-90 (up to 400 Bq/kg)on the dry weight basis. All elevated levels of activity concentration of cesium-137 were found in local areas, within the path of radioactive contamination, selected in year 2014. After carrying out rehabilitation work there has been a significant decrease in the levels of external radiation man-made radionuclides and on formal grounds completed rehabilitation work provided the requirement of Russian Safety Norms 2.6.1. 2819-10 and radiation dose does not exceed 0.3 mSv/year, however, high dose rate recorded in separate locations on the recultivated territories indicate incomplete and insufficient as completed rehabilitation.

Published: October 2019

Background:

Several studies on 18F-FDG-PET/CT have investigated the prognostic role of
this imaging modality in different tumors after treatment. Nevertheless, its role in restaging patients
with recurrent CM still needs to be defined.

Objective:

The aim of this retrospective multicenter study was to evaluate the clinical and prognostic
impact of 18F-FDG-PET/CT on the restaging process of cutaneous melanoma (CM) after surgery in
patients with suspected distant recurrent disease or suspected metastatic progression disease.

Materials and Methods:

74 patients surgically treated for CM underwent 18F-FDG-PET/CT for suspected
distant recurrent disease or suspected metastatic progression disease. The diagnostic accuracy of
visually interpreted 18F-FDG-PET/CT was obtained by considering histology (n=21 patients), other
diagnostic imaging modalities performed within 2 months of PET/CT (CT in 52/74 patients and
Whole-Body MRI in 18/74 patients) and clinical follow-up (n=74 patients) for at least 24 months containing
all the clinical and diagnostic information useful for the PET performance assessment and outcome.
Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were assessed by using the Kaplan-
Meier method. The risk of progression (Hazard Ratio-HR) was computed by the Cox regression analysis.

Results:

Suspicion of recurrent CM was confirmed in 24/27 patients with a positive 18F-FDG-PET/CT
scan. Overall, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy
of 18F-FDG-PET/CT were 82%, 93%, 88%, 89%, and 89%, respectively, with area under the
curve being 0.87 (95%IC 0.78-0.97; p<0.05). 18F-FDG-PET/CT findings significantly influenced the
therapeutic management in 18 patients (modifying therapy in 10 patients; guiding surgery in 8 patients).
After 2 years of follow-up, PFS was significantly longer in patients with a negative vs. a positive
18F-FDG-PET/CT scan (90% vs 46%, p<0.05; Fig. 1). Moreover, a negative scan was associated
with a significantly longer OS than a positive one (76% vs 39% after 2 years, p<0.05; Fig. 2). In addition,
a positive 18F-FDG-PET/CT scan was associated with an increased risk of disease progression
(HR=8.2; p0,05).

Conclusion:

18F-FDG-PET/CT showed a valuable diagnostic performance in patients with suspicion of
recurrent CM. This imaging modality might have an important prognostic value in predicting the survival
outcomes, assessing the risk of disease progression, and guiding treatment decision making.
Exploring Lexical Lacunae in the Scientific Translation of Theoretical Physics Books
Authors: Haji Daban Mohammed , Ghafur Fenik Muhammad
Published: October 2019

this research paper explores lexical lacunae at the word level at the context of English-Kurdish scientific translation. First, the paper briefly describes the development of scientific translation through space and time, and then it demonstrates the status of English and Kurdish as the language of natural sciences. Despite its significance, scientific translation has received little attention in the realm of Translation Studies, and none of the mainstream theories of translation is associated with scientific translation. Thus, this paper assumes that different translation procedures were opted for in overcoming the lexical lacunae in the context of English-Kurdish scientific translation. This paper scrutinises the English-Kurdish translation in the field of theoretical physics, an area which has hitherto left untouched. It explores a set of five theoretical physics books and their translated Kurdish versions, which altogether constitutes a corpus of circa 520,000 words. The study discloses that triplets, borrowing, expansion and omission procedures are employed to deal with lexical lacuna in the context of English-Kurdish scientific translation. It further reveals that LSP specialists were moderately prosperous in transmitting the full lexical contents of the ST.

Published: October 2019

Background

Connected health has created opportunities for leveraging health data to deliver preventive and personalized health care services. The increasing number of personal devices and advances in measurement technologies contribute to an exponential growth in digital health data. The practices for sharing data across the health ecosystem are evolving as there are more opportunities for using such data to deliver responsive health services.

Objective

The objective of this study was to explore user attitudes toward sharing personal health data (PHD). The study was executed within the first year after the implementation of the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) legal framework.

Methods

The authors analyzed the results of an online questionnaire survey to explore the willingness of 8004 people using connected health services across four European countries to share their PHD and the conditions under which they would be willing to do so.

Results

Our findings indicate that the majority of users are willing to share their personal PHD for scientific research (1811/8004, 22.63%). Age, education level, and occupation of the participants, in addition to the level of digitalization in their country were found to be associated with data sharing attitudes.

Conclusions

Positive attitudes toward data sharing for scientific research can be perceived as an indication of trust established between users and academia. Nevertheless, the interpretation of data sharing attitudes is a complex process, related to and influenced by various factors.
Unlocking the Power of Artificial Intelligence and Big Data in Medicine (Preprint)
Authors: Lovis Christian
Published: October 2019

UNSTRUCTURED

Data-driven science and its corollaries in machine learning and the wider field of artificial intelligence have the potential to drive important changes in medicine. However, medicine is not a science like any other: It is deeply and tightly bound, with a large and wide network of legal, ethical, regulatory, economical, and societal dependencies. As a consequence, the scientific and technological progresses in handling information and its further processing and cross-linking for decision support and predictive systems must be accompanied by parallel changes in the global environment, with numerous stakeholders, including citizen and society. What can be seen at the first glance as a barrier and mechanism slowing down the progression of data science must, however, be considered an important asset. Only global adoption can transform the potential of big data and artificial intelligence into an effective breakthroughs in handling health and medicine. This requires science and society, scientists and citizens, to progress together.

Authors: Prayogo Yusmani , Bayu Marida Santi Yudha Ika
Published: October 2019

In Indonesia tidal land is very wide and quite potential for sweet potatoes, but an obstacle for this cultivation is sweet potato weevil (Cylas formicarius) causes loss of 100%. This research aimed to evaluate the efficacy of biopesticide Be-Bas contains Beauveria bassiana entomopathogenic conidia to C. formicarius mortality at tidal lands. This study was conducted on June-November 2016 in South Kalimantan. The research consisted of five treatments and five replications. Results showed that the application of biopesticide Be-Bas in the planting hole and stem base was effective to cause mortality of 17 and 15 larvae per tuber, respectively. However, the application by soaking cutting was able to kill 3 larvae per tuber. The application of biopesticide Be-Bas in the planting hole and stem base were also effective to suppress the number of eggs laid by C. formicarius in the tuber, hence there was no damage found on the tuber. Meanwhile, the application of conventional insecticide was less effective because a total of 17 eggs and 3 larvae of C. formicarius were still found in each tuber. It caused tuber damage up to 17%, thus the tuber cannot be consumed. Therefore, the application of biopesticide Be-Bas in the planting hole or stem base was considered capable to suppress tubers damage caused by C. formicarius better than that of conventional insecticide.

Helopeltis bradyi is the main pest of tea plants. Ecological characteristics of this pest are important to be understood to support the development of their management and control measures. This study aimed to determine the coexistence and vertical distribution pattern of H. bradyi and its predator, Oxyopes javanus, on tea plant parts. The study was conducted at the PT Pagilaran tea plantation in Central Java, in the 2018 rainy season. Population observations were carried out in situ on 20 infested sample-trees taken randomly, for 10 consecutive days, in the morning, at noon, and in the afternoon. Vertical distribution patterns were determined based on Poisson dispersion index (DI), negative binomial, and Green index (GI). The results showed that the O. javanus spider was found preying on H. bradyi. Coexistence between this pest and predator in the same part of the plant, the pest, and the predator, occurred in the morning were 50.0, 42.8, and 7.2%; at noon were 58.3, 41.7, and 0%; and at the afternoon were 66.7, 33.3, and 0%, respectively. The parts of the plant for the coexistence are pekoe leaves; the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th of young leaves; and 1st of older leaves. The pattern of vertical distribution in the morning, at noon and in the afternoon for H. bradyi was the weak clump, while for O. javanus was uniform. The ratio of predator: prey in the morning, at noon and in the afternoon was 1:10.7, 1:16.7, and 1:10.0, respectively.

Published: October 2019

Cacao is one of the pre-eminent crops plantation with high economic value. Indonesia's cacao beans production is the third largest in the world after Ivory Coast and Ghana. Vascular Streak Dieback (VSD) is one of the important diseases of cacao which caused a decreased yield either in quantity or quality. The disease is caused by the basidiomycete fungus Ceratobasidium theobromae (syn. Oncobasidium theobromae). Spores are carried by wind to spread, infect young leaves and penetrate through natural openings and colonize xylem vessel which could inhibit the transportation system in the plant tissue. There are several fungal pathogens associated with VSD diseases on cacao. This research aimed to study the fungi associate with VSD diseases on cacao in Special Region of Yogyakarta Province. Survey and sampling were conducted in cacao plantations in regencies of Gunungkidul, Kulon Progo, Bantul and Sleman. The severity of VSD disease in the regencies of Gunungkidul and Kulon Progo were high, while in the regencies of Sleman and Bantul were moderate. Eighty eight fungal isolates were isolated from infected petiole and stem. The in vitro pathogenicity test screened 32 fungal isolates causing necrotic and chlorotic symptoms on young healthy cacao leaves with and without wounding. The first symptoms appeared at 8-12 days after inoculation and fungal mycelium could grow at 1−3 days after inoculation. Those isolates collected showed a high diversity of colony morphology. Lasiodiplodia sp., Fusarium sp., Colletotrichum sp., and Pestalotiopsis sp. had been identified based on conidial morphology.

Published: October 2019

In the conditions of growing competition on the market, organizations must ensure their sustainability, first of all, by implementing a systemic concept of business conduct in which the management is recognized as a powerful process of achieving high organizational performances. It is a concept that enables the meeting of the needs of consumers on a level different to their target value. In this sense, organizations must be structured in such a way as to fulfill certain conditions and criteria thanks to which sustainably high performance is created, which is, in fact, the goal of this research. Such performance is created as a result of the development of management within key areas of operation – the quality of products and services, production cost, speed to market, and innovating and developing such products and services. Success of such organizations greatly depends on the managers’ ability to develop and keep a talented workforce, which is a key factor in high performance development. By mastering change, outstandingly managing and controlling the future, assumptions for achieving business excellence and achieving high performance results are created. To confirm the starting hypothesis, the method of analysis, the method of synthesis and the method of multiple comparison and statistical test are used.

El presente artículo reflexiona sobre la estrecha relación que existe entre medio ambiente y las finanzas en las organizaciones realizando un análisis sobre cómo se puede a través de las Normas Internacionales de Contabilidad e Información Financiera (NIIF) reflejar adecuadamente las implicaciones económicas de los costos ambientales inmersos en la dinámica empresarial. Ello exige, establecer cómo a través de las Normas Internacionales de Información Financiera se puede reconocer, medir y revelar los costos en los que incurre una empresa para poder aplicar medidas de protección ambiental; identificar las consecuencias negativas que trae el desarrollo de la actividad económica de la empresa en el medio ambiente; examinar sobre la importancia de la contabilidad ambiental en el mundo empresarial, para finalmente determinar tratamiento contable para los rubros relacionados con los costos ambientales y las políticas contables que se deben definir en base a la actividad económica de la empresa. De esta forma se demuestra como a través de la implementación de las NIIF una empresa puede reflejar los costos ambientales en sus Informes para que los tomadores de decisiones analicen las implicaciones ambientales de su organización y generen estrategias, políticas y medidas que contribuyan a la conservación del medio ambiente fijando recursos para este objetivo, sin considerarlo detrimento para la empresa.
Modelo de capacitación para trabajadores de empresas de servicios en el contexto actual
Authors: Moreno Cortés Karla Coré , Morales Espíndola María Guadalupe , Romano Cadena María Martha del Socorro
Published: October 2019

El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo analizar teórica y prácticamente la razón por la cual la capacitación representa en la actualidad una inversión de corto y mediano plazo que enriquece el capital humano en las organizaciones de la sociedad del conocimiento del siglo XXI. Se propone una metodología de impacto para empresas de servicios como las del Sector Salud, cuyas condiciones de trabajo (al igual que otros servicios) no siempre favorecen o garantizan una capacitación exitosa.

            El capacitador debe enfrentar  las actitudes negativas de las personas, quienes se presentan desmotivadas, con la tendencia de culpar al nivel directivo de las situaciones adversas, con una falta de disposición a la capacitación, con rechazo por tener que realizar este proceso a contra turno o utilizando un  50% de su  tiempo libre. Son circunstancias que impiden, en la mayoría de los casos, llegar al cumplimiento de los objetivos programados.

            En nuestro país, existe la obligatoriedad legal, dada por la Constitución Política y por la Ley Federal del Trabajo, de aplicar Programas de Capacitación. Esto con el fin de proteger al trabajador de un despido por inadecuado desempeño, causado por la falta de capacitación y actualización en su trabajo. No siempre se tiene plena consciencia de ello.

In the present work, Co0.5Mg0.5Fe2O4/Ba0.85Sr0.15TiO3 (CMFO/BST) composite
ceramics with different molar ratios (1:1, 1:2, 1:4, 1:6 and 1:8) were
prepared by sol-gel method and sintered at 1150?C. The effects of molar
ratio on the structure, dielectric and multiferroic properties were
comparatively studied. The results indicate that all the synthesized
composites mainly show bi-phase structure except slight presence of impurity
phases. The surface of the specimens is relatively dense and the mean grain
size is about 2 ?m. It decreases at first and then increases with the
increased molar ratio. The dielectric constant shows decreased trend with
increasing the molar ratio, while the dielectric loss presents the opposite
behaviour. With the increase of molar ratio, the height of the relaxation
peak decreases while the peak position shifts to higher temperature range.
The relaxation peak evolves gradually from one to two peaks. The residual
polarization increases with voltage but decreases with frequency. The
maximal polarization of 1.28 ?C/cm2 is obtained in the specimen with the
molar ratio of 1:8, due to the largest concentration of ferroelectric phase
BST. The magnetization shows abnormal behaviour with the change in molar
ratio. The largest saturation and remnant magnetization are 20.89 and 12.66
emu/g, respectively when the molar ratio is 1:2 due to the stronger
interface interaction effect between the two phases.

La memoria en la evaluación del aprendizaje en ciencias sociales
Authors: Bolaños Retavisca Blanca Cecilia , Mendoza Torres Diego Fernando , Vásquez Sánchez Raúl , Jaramillo Cano Yenda Fanory
Published: October 2019

En este artículo se presentan los resultados de un estudio que buscó identificar las concepciones de dos docentes de ciencias sociales de una institución educativa oficial de la ciudad de Bogotá, acerca del papel que juega la memoria en los procesos de enseñanza y evaluación del aprendizaje en el aula. Para ello, se empleó un enfoque cualitativo, se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas, observaciones de prácticas pedagógicas y análisis de resultados de desempeño en una prueba estandarizada sobre civilizaciones precolombinas aplicada a estudiantes de grado sexto, siendo esta última un producto adicional del proceso. Se concluyó que para las docentes la memoria cumple un papel relevante en términos de: huella del aprendizaje, base del desarrollo de niveles de pensamiento superior y significación de lo aprendido. No obstante, se observó que no necesariamente dichas concepciones y prácticas inciden en el aprendizaje alcanzado por sus estudiantes en términos de niveles de pensamiento superior.
La agenda periodística en el aula. Relato de una experiencia didáctica en epidemiología y salud pública básica veterinaria
Authors: Gortari Maria Cecilia , Bonzo Estela , Ceccarelli Soledad , Rodríguez Mendoza Ninfa , Zubiri Karina
Published: October 2019

Aunque la medicina veterinaria es uno de los pilares de la salud pública, esta relación no resulta tan evidente en los primeros años de la facultad. Esta situación, y las condiciones de adaptación por la que transitan los estudiantes hacen necesaria la intervención educativa para interesarlos en el área de salud pública. En este sentido, los medios de comunicación nos relatan hechos que involucran a los veterinarios en problemas actuales, reales y significativos de la práctica profesional constituyéndose en una herramienta didáctica de enorme potencial formativo. Así, en Epidemiología y Salud Pública Básica incorporamos el uso de la prensa escrita en el aula. Este trabajo, da cuenta de dicha experiencia y profundiza sobre el potencial de la prensa escrita como recurso educativo. Los resultados de la experiencia surgieron de una encuesta de opinión a los estudiantes y de un espacio de reflexión docente. La vinculación de la profesión con la actualidad, la motivación de estudiantes y docentes, y las potencialidades educativas de los medios de comunicación fueron lo más destacado. La “agenda periodística” en el aula, contribuyó a repensar la profesión en el área de Salud Pública y a la formación de profesionales más comprometidos con la sociedad.
Revalorizando el lugar de la práctica en una cátedra de ingeniería electrónica. Una propuesta de innovación para la enseñanza de sistemas digitales
Authors: Osio Jorge
Published: October 2019

En el dictado de las prácticas, a lo largo de los años se ha evidenciado la necesidad de un cambio que posibilite aplicar los conceptos desarrollados durante la teoría a la resolución de problemáticas reales que sumen experiencia al futuro profesional. A raíz de esta necesidad se desarrolló una propuesta de intervención en la metodología de enseñanza de los Sistemas Digitales en la Carrera de Ingeniería Electrónica de la UNLP. Dicha propuesta contempla aspectos del aprendizaje basado en problemas, donde se promueve el desarrollo de la creatividad y el razonamiento en la resolución de problemas reales que requieren la aplicación de conceptos teóricos y la implementación funcional de un sistema digital para atender los requerimientos solicitados.

Mediante la innovación se buscará promover un cambio en la manera de transmitir el conocimiento, planteando una relación teoría-práctica más estrecha y dinámica que requiera un rol activo en los estudiantes, logrando que estos generen preguntas, indaguen e investiguen en un amplio espacio de prácticas nutrido con características de la elaboración de proyectos. La propuesta se plantea sobre la base de una perspectiva constructivista, donde el alumno es protagonista y el docente tiene un rol tutorial de seguimiento e indagación.
An Introduction to Fuzzy Edge Coloring
Authors: K.S Kanzul Fathima , Hussain R Jahir
Published: October 2019

In this paper, a new concept of fuzzy edge coloring is introduced. The fuzzy edge coloring is an assignment of colors to edges of a fuzzy graph G. It is proper if no two strong adjacent edges of G will receive the same color. Fuzzy edge chromatic number of G is least positive integer for which G has a proper fuzzy edge coloring. In this paper, the fuzzy edge chromatic number of different classes of fuzzy graphs and the fuzzy edge chromatic number of fuzzy line graphs are found. Isochromatic fuzzy graph is also defined.
ARE THETA FUNCTIONS THE FOUNDATIONS OF PHYSICS ?
Authors: Wet J.A.de
Published: October 2019

The Jacobi theta functions are essentially rotations in a complex space and as such provide a basis for the lattices of the exceptional Lie algebras E6;E8 in complex 3-space and complex 4-space.In this note we will show that a choice of the nome q of the theta functions Î¸E6 ;,Î¸E8 leads to the equilateral tritangents of these lattices. Speciffcally we will find quarter period ratios of the real and complex axes. In particular E8 is isomorphic to the binary icosahedral group shown recently to describe Elementary Particle theory and Quantum Gravity so q is fundamental to the structure of space itself.
