Pedagogía para la paz: contexto de posacuerdo en la frontera colombo venezolana
Authors: Leguizamón Martínez Diana Carolina , Sandoval Obando Eduardo
Published: December 2019

El artículo se inspira en la observación de las dinámicas locales desde el quehacer profesional de los autores y experiencias tales como la Escuela de Paz y Convivencia Ciudadana como proyecto pedagógico que hace parte del Equipo de Conflicto, Estado y Desarrollo del Centro de Investigación y Educación Popular (CINEP)/Programa por la Paz, la presente reflexión se orientó a elucidar los escenarios necesarios a considerar en la comprensión de la pedagogía para la Paz como contexto de posibilidad y esperanza para el fortalecimiento del tejido social desde la consolidación de escenarios de mediación y conversación en el contexto de frontera. La metodología de desarrollo del tema se basa en una revisión bibliográfica alrededor de la descripción general sobre las condiciones humanitarias de Venezuela y Colombia y las complejidades que ellas tejen en el contexto fronterizo, elucidando como fin, una reflexión sobre cómo la Violencia resulta en un mecanismo de poder y control geopolítico desde intereses globales en contextos particulares, ante lo cual la mirada de la pedagogía para la paz, como posición micropolítica y de conocimiento situado, permite ir tejiendo lazos de confianza y reflexión  para la humanización, en tanto empatía en el vínculo, de las relaciones.

UTILIZATION OF INDONESIAN LOCAL STANNIC CHLORIDE (SnCl4) PRECURSOR IN THE PROCESS OF MAKING FLUORINE-DOPED TIN OXIDE (FTO) CONDUCTIVE GLASS. Thin layer of fluorine- doped tin oxide (FTO) conductive glass has been deposited on a glass substrate heated at a temperature of 350°C using the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis nebulizer method with variations in fluorine doping and substrate temperatures. This experiment uses the raw material of Indonesian local stannic chloride (SnCl4) (PT Timah Industri) as a precursor with a temperature variation of 250, 300, 350, 400°C. The structure and morphology of the optical and electrical properties of all the thin layers have been examined. XRD results show that all thin layers have a tetragonal crystal structure. In this experiment, there is a significant influence on the role of fluorine doping on resistivity and transmittance values. With the addition of 2% wt doping, the resistivity and transmittance values decrease. The optimum value is obtained by doping 2 wt%, substrate temperature of 350°C with a resistivity value of 9.28.10-5 Ω.cm and transmittance value of 88%.
Probe-Seq v3
Authors: Amamoto Ryoji , L. Cepko Constance
Published: December 2019

Recent transcriptional profiling technologies are uncovering previously-undefined cell populations and molecular markers at an unprecedented pace. While single cell RNA (scRNA) sequencing is an attractive approach for unbiased transcriptional profiling of all cell types, a complementary method to isolate and sequence specific cell populations from heterogeneous tissue remains challenging. Here, we developed Probe-Seq, which allows deep transcriptional profiling of specific cell types isolated using RNA as the defining feature. Dissociated cells are labelled using fluorescent in situhybridization (FISH) for RNA, and then isolated by fluorescent activated cell sorting (FACS). We used Probe-Seq to purify and profile specific cell types from mouse, human, and chick retinas, as well as the Drosophila midgut. Probe-Seq is compatible with frozen nuclei, making cell types within archival tissue immediately accessible. As it can be multiplexed, combinations of markers can be used to create specificity. Multiplexing also allows for the isolation of multiple cell types from one cell preparation. Probe-Seq should enable RNA profiling of specific cell types from any organism.

Authors: Usachev Vladimir Ivanovich , Gagey Pierre-Marie , Elyaev Viktor Egorovich , Kononov Anton Fedorovich , Pereyslov Grigory Anatolyevich
Published: December 2019

Based on the analysis of the statokinezigram vectors, new stabilometric parameters have been proposed: the Dynamic Stabilization Factor [DSF] and the Dynamic Stabilization Index [DSI]. They reflect the individual properties of the postural system and the functional state of the human body. DSI is stable in time and does not depend on the duration of the stabilometric recording. The principle and algorithm for calculating these parameters are presented. The possibility of evaluating the effectiveness of osteopathic treatment with its help is shown. Computer stabilometry was carried out on the stabilometric platform “Stabilan” with the software “StabMed” Special Design Bureau “Rhythm”, Taganrog, Russia. The sampling rate was 50 Hz.
Effects of ischemic preconditioning on indirect markers of exercise-induced muscle damage: protocol for a randomized placebo-controlled trial
Authors: Cerqueira Mikhail Santos , França Ingrid Martins de , Montello Mauro Bezerra , Kovacs Daniel , Vieira Wouber Hérickson de Brito
Published: December 2019

Background: Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) has been used to improve exercise performance, but its role in protecting against exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) is still unclear. Objective: To investigate the effects of IPC on the indirect markers of EIMD when compared to placebo. Methods: 30 healthy young men, with no recent experience in lower limb strength training, will be recruited. Subjects will be allocated randomly into two groups: IPC or placebo. The IPC group will undergo 4 x 5 min of occlusion (with individualized total occlusion pressure), interspersed with 5 min of reperfusion. The placebo group will be submitted to the same protocol, but with minimum pressure (10mmHg) being applied during the occlusion period. After the interventions, volunteers will be submitted to muscle damage induced by isokinetic exercise (10 sets of 12 maximum eccentric repetitions) in the non-dominant femoral quadriceps. The primary outcome will be isometric peak torque, measured both before and up to 72 hours after exercise. Secondary outcomes include rate of torque development, muscle soreness, knee range of motion, thigh circumference and blood levels of creatine kinase. Discussion: The results of this trial will indicate whether the effects of IPC are superior to placebo in the protection against EIMD

In the minutes to hours after a major earthquake, such as the recent 2018 Mw 7.1 Anchorage event, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) produces a suite of interconnected earthquake products that provides diverse information ranging from basic earthquake source parameters to loss estimates. The 2018 Anchorage earthquake is the first major domestic earthquake to occur since several new USGS products have been developed, thus providing an opportunity to discuss the newly expanded USGS earthquake product suite, its timeliness, performance, and reception. Overall, the products were relatively timely, accurate, well received, and widely used, including by the media, who used information and visualizations from many products to frame their early reporting. One downside of the codependence of multiple products is that reasonable updates to upstream products (e.g., magnitude and source characterization) can result in significant changes to downstream products; this was the case for the Anchorage earthquake. However, the coverage of strong‐motion stations and felt reports was so dense that the ShakeMap and downstream products were relatively insensitive to changes in magnitude or fault‐plane orientation once the ground‐motion data were available. Shaking and loss indicators initially fluctuated in the first hour or two after the earthquake, but they stabilized quickly. To understand how the products are being used and how effectively they are being communicated, we analyze the media coverage of USGS earthquake products. Most references to USGS products occurred within the first 48 hr after the event. The lack of coverage after 48 hr could indicate that longer‐term products addressing what actions the USGS is taking or what early reconnaissance has revealed might be useful for those people wanting additional information about the earthquake.

Published: December 2019

Objetivou-se com este trabalho revisar e levantar dados referentes à qualidade da água para fins de irrigação de regiões áridas e semiáridas. Os aspectos físico-químicos são os principais parâmetros de avaliação da qualidade da água para irrigação e os mais estudados são os valores de sais solúveis e sua concentração, no entanto, outros fatores devem ser observados como conjunto de processos que fazem baixar a qualidade da água para fins de irrigação. E devem ser levados em consideração os aspectos de sólidos suspensos, pH, sólidos solúveis, manganês, tipos de bactérias que existem na água de irrigação. O irrigante deve antes de qualquer coisa coletar água da fonte desejada para poder tomar as melhores decisões após receber o laudo da qualidade da água que deseja utilizar na irrigação.

Tijekom 2017. i 2018. godine provedena su poljska istraživanja o utjecaju genotipa, godine, lokacije te interakcija na prinos, udio ulja i proteina u soji. U pokus je uvršteno dvadeset najzastupljenijih genotipova soje koji u strukturi sjetve zauzimaju 75% sjetvenih površina. Pokus je postavljen na lokacijama Osijek i Kutjevo u dva ponavljanja po slučajnom blok-rasporedu. U 2018. godini ostvaren je prosječno veći prinos zrna, udio ulja i proteina prvenstveno zbog pravilnog rasporeda oborina. Lokacija Osijek u svim godinama istraživanja imala je prosječno veće prinose zrna, udio ulja i proteina. Prema dobivenim rezultatima analize varijance za genotip, interakciju genotipa x lokacija i genotip x godina dobivene su statistički visoko opravdane razlike (P<0,01) za prinos zrna. Za genotip i interakciju genotip x godina dobivene su statistički opravdane razlike (P<0,05) za udio ulja i proteina. Dobiveni rezultati istraživanja doprinijet će pravilnom izboru genotipova ovisno o namjeni proizvodnje kako bi se iskoristio genetski potencijal genotipa koji je najpogodniji za određenu lokaciju.

Published: December 2019

The aim of this study was to investigate the nematocidal effect of the preparations based on fluopyram (pesticide) and liquid chicken manure (natural amendment) on the population density of the root-knot nematodes, Meloidogyne spp. in carrot crops. The field experiment was set up in four treatments: control (C), fluopyram (FLU), fluopyram and liquid chicken manure (FLU+LCM) and liquid chicken manure (LCM) by a random block design in four replicates. Population density of Meloidogyne spp. juveniles varied between the treatments, and the number of Meloidogyne spp. was significantly decreased in all treatments with fluopyram (FLU and FLU+LCM). All amended treatments (FLU, FLU+LCM, LCM) decreased galling of the roots and had a positive effect on carrot yield. The population of Meloidogyne spp. juveniles increased with the plant growth, regardless of the treatments applied. Fluopyram negatively affected the biodiversity indicating greater disturbance for the nematode community structure in the soil. It can be concluded that fluopyram and liquid chicken manure have nematicidal potential, while liquid chicken manure maintained or enhanced nematode biodiversity.

Published: December 2019

Pšenična trava predstavlja biljke pšenice u ranim stadijima uzgoja prije ulaska u fazu vlatanja. Zbog visoke koncentracije minerala, vitamina, enzima, klorofila i bioflavonoida, pšenična trava se koristi kao prirodni dodatak prehrani. Iako se može konzumirati u obliku praha i tableta, često se konzumira u obliku svježega soka, te ju stoga ljudi uzgajaju u kućanstvima. Veliki je problem u takvome uzgoju pojava i razvoj plijesni na supstratu i biljkama. Cilj istraživanja bio je ispitati razlike između površinske dezinfekcije sjemena te vrste i dezinfekcije podloge (bez podloge, kvarcni pijesak [dezinficiran i nedezinficiran] i Brillov supstrat [dezinficiran i nedezinficiran]) na pojavu plijesni, broj i masu biljaka (g) i količinu dobivenoga soka (ml) u dvije sorte pšenice (Ilirija i Katarina). Metode površinske dezinfekcije sjemena i dezinfekcije supstrata, koje su ispitivane u provedenome istraživanju, moguće je primijeniti u kućanstvu. Najveći broj biljaka i masa biljaka utvrđene su na Brill supstratu, neovisno o sorti. Između mase biljaka i količine dobivenoga soka utvrđena je pozitivna korelacija (r=0,98; p<0,01). Prosječna količina soka za sortu Iliriju bila je 7,85±2,93 ml, a za sortu Katarinu 5,08±2,21 ml. Najveća pojava i razvoj plijesni utvrđeni su pri uzgoju pšenične trave bez podloge. Na ispitivane parametre najveći utjecaj imali su sorta i podloga.

Published: December 2019

Sweet pepper is attacked by a number of viruses which cause serious yield losses for many growers. The influence of mulching on virus disease incidence in sweet pepper was studied under irrigation in NIHORT. Healthy seedlings were transplanted to the field and arranged in a randomized complete block design (RCBD). Different mulch used included air-dried leaves of Azadirachta indica (Neem), Tithonia diversifolia (Tithonia), Neem + Tithonia (w/w) and plastic mulch (white, black and yellow) while the control had no mulch. Incidence and severity of virus-like diseases on growth and yield were evaluated. Result indicated that plants grown using white plastic mulch had the lowest disease incidence of 34.43%. Plants grown with Tithonia, Neem, and Neem + Tithonia mulch had high disease incidence of 100%, 88%, and 90.60% respectively. Average virus disease severity ranged from 2.30 and 3.33 on a scale of 1-5 scoring system. Symptoms observed on symptomatic plants include mosaic, mottle, wrinkle and leaf reduction. Plots treated with black plastic mulch produced the lowest fruit weight, while the white and yellow plastic mulch induced highest fruit weight found. The results obtained showed that white and yellow plastic mulches are effective management options for viruses of sweet pepper.
Triaging patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding: the utility of Glasgow-Blatchford score
Authors: Mohanty Namita , Kannan Arjun Nataraj
Published: December 2019

Background: Glasgow-Blatchford bleeding score (GBS), was developed to predict the need for hospital-based intervention (transfusion, endoscopic therapy or surgery) or death following upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Study evaluated the Glasgow Blatchford score’s (GBS) ability to identify high risk patients who needed blood transfusion in patients with UGI haemorrhage.Methods: A total of 270 cases admitted with upper gastrointestinal bleeding in the Medical ICU/Wards of MKCG Medical College were put on Blatchford scoring system and classified as those requiring (high risk = GBS >1) and not requiring blood transfusion (low risk) based on the score assigned on admission and a correlation between initial scoring and requirement of blood transfusion was done.Results: Units of blood transfusion required, the GBS and duration of hospital stay were significantly lower among the low risk group, all with p value <0.001. No blood transfusion was required in patients with GBS <3. There was significant correlation between GB score and requirement of blood transfusion (p <0.001) and duration of hospital stay (p <0.001). GBS had 100% sensitivity, negative predictive value and positive likelihood ratio, when a cut off of > 16 was used in predicting mortality.Conclusions: Patients presenting with Upper GI bleeding can be triaged in casualty with Glasgow Blatchford scoring. Patients with a low score of less than or equal to 3 can be safely discharged and reviewed on follow up thereby reducing admission, allowing more efficient use of hospital resources.

Published: December 2019

Background: Following Myocardial Infarction some proteins and enzymes, CPK-MB/ Troponin-I, T, are released into the blood from the necrotic heart muscle. Serum Uric Acid (SUA) may be a risk factor and negative prognostic marker for cardiovascular diseases. Aim of the study was to study serum uric acid levels in patients of acute Myocardial infarction with congestive heart failure, its relation with stages of congestive heart failure as per Killip classification and the role of serum uric acid levels as a marker of mortality.Methods: The case control study was conducted on 120 patients divided into two groups. Group A included 60 patients of acute Myocardial infarction. Group A was further divided into two categories. One includes 30 patients of with congestive heart failure and another includes 30 patients without congestive heart failure. Group B consists of 60 control patients. Serum uric acid levels were measured in Group A on 1st, 3rd and 7th day of hospital admission and in Group B on 1st day.Results: The study showed females have higher degree of hyperuricemia than males. SUA was significantly higher in patients of acute myocardial infarction than control group patients. SUA were also higher in patients with history of IHD, in patients with BNP >100 and it correlates with Killip class and mortality rates. Patients of acute myocardial infarction with diabetes mellitus had higher degree of hyperuricemia than nondiabetic and control group. No significant difference in SUA levels were observed with regard to age, alcohol intake, lipid profile, ejection fraction and hypertension.Conclusions: In acute myocardial infarction, patients with hyperuricemia had higher mortality and may be considered as poor prognostic biomarker.
Real Exchange Rates and Primary Commodity Prices
Authors: Ayres João , Hevia Constantino , Nicolini Juan Pablo
Published: December 2019

This paper shows that there is substantial comovement between prices of primary commodities such as oil, aluminum, maize, or copper and real exchange rates between developed economies such as Germany, Japan, and the United Kingdom against the US dollar. The production of commodities is then explicitly considered in a two-country model of trade with productivity shocks and shocks to the supply of commodities. The model is calibrated so as to reproduce, among other things, the volatility and persistence of primary commodity prices, and the model is shown to deliver equilibrium real exchange rates that are as volatile and persistent as they are in the data. The model rationalizes an empirical strategy to identify the share of the variance in real exchange rates that can be accounted for by the underlying shocks, even if those shocks are not observable. This strategy is used to argue that shocks that move primary commodity prices account for a large share of the volatility of real exchange rates in the data. The analysis implies that existing models used to analyze real exchange rates between large economies that mostly focus on trade between differentiated final goods could benefit, in terms of matching the behavior of real exchange rates, by also considering trade in primary commodities.
Ecos y susurros: re-narrar la memoria de la danza en Quito, Ecuador
Authors: Donoso Esteban
Published: December 2019

En este artículo, vuelvo sobre un archivo de entrevistas hechas entre 2013 y 2014 a bailarines que trabajan en Quito-Ecuador. En ellas, pedíamos a los entrevistados que hablaran sobre su trayectoria artística y sobre las maneras en que nombraban y clasificaban su trabajo. También les pedíamos que dieran una definición de danza contemporánea en sus propias palabras. Cuando surgía esta pregunta, un buen número de entrevistados, no se mostraban muy seguros y dudaban, lo cual llenaba el espacio real de la entrevista con vacíos y silencios. A veces, estas definiciones se volvían enigmáticas, especialmente cuando se les pedía que dieran definiciones categóricas. Aunque inicialmente parecía que había una dificultad por parte de los entrevistados para explicar sus propias prácticas, me di cuenta de que estas brechas y dudas en realidad funcionaban como síntomas. Las lagunas en las narraciones de los bailarines vinieron a dar cuenta del particular modo en el que se ha producido el encuentro entre una historia de la danza escénica que circula más o menos a nivel global y la historia local. Por un lado, tenemos que esta relación es claramente asimétrica en términos de visibilidad, y por el otro, que la asimilación de las prácticas locales a esos cánones occidentales parece encubrir otra memoria de prácticas dancísticas y otros modos de hablar de estas prácticas.
Nuestra danza: el laborioso ejercicio de nombrar(nos), imaginar(nos), bailar(nos)
Authors: Barba Fabián
Published: December 2019

En este artículo, quisiera reflexionar sobre los modos posibles de pensar la danza que se hace en Ecuador. ¿Nuestra danza es necesariamente una danza ecuatoriana? Si pensamos nuestra danza en estos términos, ponemos al centro de nuestras preguntas la idea de una identidad cultural nacional que se construye y expresa a través de esta práctica artística. ¿Podemos pensar una danza nuestra sin pensarla dentro del encuadre del Estado-nación? ¿Qué tipo de nosotrxs se construiría entonces? ¿Cómo eso afectaría la forma en que nos imaginamos, en que nos bailamos?

¿Investigación o técnica?
Authors: Goebbels Heiner
Published: December 2019

Cuando hablamos de educación en las artes escénicas, hablamos del final de una larga cadena. Los conservatorios de teatro y escuelas para bailarines, cantantes, instrumentistas, actores, directores, escenógrafos y diseñadores de vestuario son el resultado del largo desarrollo de una convención estética. Todos estos centros de formación se fundaron con el único propósito de proporcionar nuevos talentos a las instituciones que noche tras noche realizan ballets, óperas, conciertos, teatro y musicales. Son el resultado de una práctica artística existente, que tiene al menos 100 años —las premisas básicas para la formación en ópera son bastante más antiguas—. No fueron construidos para renovar la estética, tampoco para provocar el cuestionamiento de las estructuras o instituciones para las que se educan. Así, la capacitación para el “mercado” existente, es el último y más inerte eslabón en una cadena de formas del arte, instituciones artísticas y educación para el arte.
Nuevo cine ecuatoriano: pequeño, glocal y plurinacional
Authors: Coryat Diana , Zweig Noah
Published: December 2019

Este artículo conceptualiza el nuevo cinema ecuatoriano como pequeño, glocal y plurinacional. Plantea que es un momento propicio para estudiar este cine emergente. Sin embargo, mientras que sea un sector heterogéneo, este articulo propone que todavia está atravesado por inequitidades históricos etnoraciales, de clase y de region. Después de insertar la historia cinematográfica de Ecuador, en gran parte desconocida, en las tendencias regionales, se analizan las diferentes esferas de producción, incluidas las narrativas mestizas ficticias, los documentales activistas, el cine indígena y comunitario y el cine de guerrilla costeña. El artículo analiza tanto los logros del sector como los desafíos actuales. Propone que más fondos estatales y privados deberían ser invertidos en el fomento de iniciativas plurinacionales y regionales, y en el cultivo de diversos creadores y audiencias.

Question of God – Today
Authors: Müller Gerhard
Published: December 2019

Nowy ateizm, jaki wyłonił się z oświeceniowej i religijnej krytyki XVIII i XIX wieku, różni się od dawnych form negowania istnienia Boga czy też jego skuteczności w świecie. Wychodzi on z założenia, że intelekt wyzwolił się od zaciemnienia poprzez metafizykę i teologię objawienia i znalazł swój naturalny stan w immanentyzmie i sekularyzmie. Tym samym nieistnienie Boga byłoby oczywiste, ponieważ byłby On istotą wyimaginowaną, której istnienia nie można udowodnić empirycznie-naukowo a priori.

Niektórzy prominentni myśliciele dowodzą intelektualnej niemożności pozytywizmu. Wychodząc od intelektualnych i egzystencjalnych pytań, których nie da się argumentacyjnie oddzielić od duchowej natury człowieka, dochodzą do przekonania, że człowiek stawiając pytania jest ukierunkowany na transcendentne pochodzenie i cel istnienia świata. W świetle ukierunkowania na Boga, historyczne świadectwo historycznego samoobjawienia się Boga w Jezusie Chrystusie może być ponownie ocenione. Wiara w Boga, który jest obecny w świecie, daje nadzieję także w obliczu śmierci, jak zeznał Dietrich Bonhoeffer na krótko przed swoją egzekucją przez bezbożnych nazistów.
The Kingdom of God in Jezus' Message

Królestwo Boże w przesłaniu Jezusa

Pojęcie „Królestwo Boże” nie zostało odkryte przez Chrystusa czy Kościół pierwotny. Posiada ono głębokie korzenie w teologii i w historii Izraela. Nadejście Królestwa Bożego stanowi klucz do odczytania zbawczej misji Jezusa Chrystusa. Sam Chrystus nigdy nie zdefiniował rzeczywistości Królestwa Bożego. Rzeczywistość tę przybliżał słuchaczom poprzez przypowieści i obrazy. Najbardziej wyrazisty biblijny opis Królestwa Bożego znajdujemy w liście św. Pawła do Rzymian 14,17: „Bo królestwo Boże – to nie sprawa tego, co się je i pije, ale to sprawiedliwość, pokój i radość w Duchu Świętym”.

W Jezusie Chrystusie realizuje się odwieczne przymierze Boga z człowiekiem. Chrystus Pan jest wcielonym objawieniem Boga, który jest bogaty w miłosierdzie. Miłość Boża została nam dana w Jezusie przez Ducha Świętego. Chrystus, inaugurując Królestwo Boże na ziemi, zrealizował odwieczną wolę Boga Ojca. To Jezus Chrystus jest Królestwem Bożym i dlatego w Jego Osobie realizuje się w pełni istota Królestwa. Królestwo Boże stanowi poprzez miłość akt komunii Boga z człowiekiem.
W kierunku chrystologii integralnej
Authors: Pondel Łukasz
Published: December 2019

Autor niniejszej rozprawy za swoje podstawowe zadanie obrał wykazanie, iż w chrystologii konieczna jest transpozycja metodologiczna i merytoryczna. W tym celu zostały przeanalizowane obecne we współczesnej chrystologii modele, które dotąd dominowały, jak również została wykazana ich dzisiejsza niewystarczalność. Zamiarem Autora nie było zanegowanie współczesnych ujęć chrystologicznych, ale ich połączenie na tle nowego modelu. Zastosowana metoda jest jedynie zaprezentowaniem próbki analizy historycznej dostępnych modeli chrystologicznych, z jej odpowiednikami we współczesnej teologii oraz eksplikacją pojęciową tych kierunków badań, które wymagają wyjaśnienia i pogłębienia. Zwieńczeniem niniejszej publikacji jest próba połączenia dostępnych modeli, prezentująca tym samym integralny kierunek badań respektujący dostępne w nauce metody.

This study aims to provide understanding about school’s perceptions of discipline and punishment for elementary students in Bawen and Ambarawa region.  This research used qualitative method to collect the data.  The datas was collected by questionnaire and observation.  The participants consist of students and their parents, also the teachers of elementary school in Bawen and Ambarawa regions.  From the observation could get some different perception about punishment to the children or student in the form. The data collected by some classification, so it obtained a decision of their opinion. The results showed that the physical and verbal punishment as in various forms in classroom for discipline programs.  When the students broke the rules, they would be subject to discipline.  Actually, punishment had some negative side effects to them.  The students who were the object of punishment would showed a bad attitude towards to their teachers and friends.  It could be concluded that punishment is humanistic and educative punishment and the least effective of punishment was authoritarian and non- educative punishment. The teacher should give punishment which would give an educational effect to their student. So, they would get an educational advantages from it.

Human umbilical cord blood is frequently used as a source of transplantable hematopoietic cells and more recently as a target of gene therapy - a new approach for treatment of various disorders. The aim of our study was optimisation of the transfection conditions of cord blood-derived CD34(+) hematopoietic cells. Mononuclear cells fraction was isolated from cord blood samples by density gradient centrifugation. Subsequently, CD34(+) hematopoietic cells were separated on immunomagnetic MiniMACS columns. Pure population of CD34(+) cells was incubated in a serum free medium supplemented with thrombopoietin, stem cell factor and Flt-3 ligand for 48 h and then transfected with plasmid DNA carrying the enhanced version of green fluorescent protein (EGFP) as a reporter gene. We studied the influence of various pulse settings and DNA concentrations on the transfection efficiency, measured by flow cytometry as the fluorescence of target cells due to the expression of EGFP. The optimal settings were as follows: 4 mm cuvette, 1600 microF, 550 V/cm, and 10 microg of DNA per 500 microl. With these settings we obtained a high transfection frequency (41.2%) without a marked decrease of cell viability. An increase of the pulse capacitance and/or of DNA concentration resulted in a greater electroporation efficiency, but also in a decrease of cell viability. In conclusion, the results described here allow one to recommend electroporation as an efficient method of gene delivery into CD34(+) hematopoietic cells derived from human umbilical cord blood.

Translation initiation factor eIF4E binds the m(7)G cap of eukaryotic mRNAs and mediates recruitment of mRNA to the ribosome during cap-dependent translation initiation. This event is the rate-limiting step of translation and a major target for translational control. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, about 70% of genes express mRNAs with an unusual cap structure containing m(3)(2,2,7)G, which is poorly recognized by mammalian eIF4E. C. elegans expresses five isoforms of eIF4E (IFE-1, IFE-2, etc.). Three of these (IFE-3, IFE-4 and IFE-5) were investigated by means of spectroscopy and structural modelling based on mouse eIF4E bound to m(7)GDP. Intrinsic fluorescence quenching of Trp residues in the IFEs by iodide ions indicated structural differences between the apo and m(7)G cap bound proteins. Fluorescence quenching by selected cap analogues showed that only IFE-5 forms specific complexes with both m(7)G- and m(3)(2,2,7)G-containing caps (K(as) 2 x 10(6) M(-1) to 7 x 10(6) M(-1)) whereas IFE-3 and IFE-4 discriminated strongly in favor of m(7)G-containing caps. These spectroscopic results quantitatively confirm earlier qualitative data derived from affinity chromatography. The dependence of K(as) on pH indicated optimal cap binding of IFE-3, IFE-4 and IFE-5 at pH 7.2, lower by 0.4 pH units than that of eIF4E from human erythrocytes. These results provide insight into the molecular mechanism of recognition of structurally different caps by the highly homologous IFEs.

Published: December 2019

A new approach has been developed to study binding of a ligand to a macromolecule based on the diffusion process. In terms of the Fick's first law, the concentration of free ligand in the presence of a protein can be determined by the measurement of those ligands which are diffused out. This method is applied to the study of binding of methyl-orange to lysozyme in phosphate buffer of pH 6.2, at 30 degrees C. The binding isotherm was determined initially, followed by application of the Hill equation to the data obtained, then binding constant and binding capacity were estimated.
Steroid signal transduction activated at the cell membrane: from plants to animals.
Authors: Marcinkowska Ewa , Wiedłocha Antoni
Published: December 2019

Steroid hormones in plants and in animals are very important for physiological and developmental regulation. In animals steroid hormones are recognized by nuclear receptors, which transcriptionally regulate specific target genes following binding of the ligand. In addition, numerous rapid effects generated by steroids appear to be mediated by a mechanism not depending on the activation of nuclear receptors. Although the existence of separate membrane receptors was postulated many years ago and hundreds of reports supporting this hypothesis have been published, no animal membrane steroid receptor has been cloned to date. Meanwhile, a plant steroid receptor from Arabidopsis thaliana has been identified and cloned. It is a transmembrane protein which specifically recognizes plant steroids (brassinosteroids) at the cell surface and has a serine/threonine protein kinase activity. It seems that plants have no intracellular steroid receptors, since there are no genes homologous to the family of animal nuclear steroid receptors in the genome of A. thaliana. Since the reason of the rapid responses to steroid hormones in animal cells still remains obscure we show in this article two possible explanations of this phenomenon. Using 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) as an example of animal steroid hormone, we review results of our and of other groups concordant with the hypothesis of membrane steroid receptors. We also review the results of experiments performed with ovarian hormones, that led their authors to the hypothesis explaining rapid steroid actions without distinct membrane steroid receptors. Finally, examples of polypeptide growth factor that similarly to steroids exhibit a dual mode of action, activating not only cell surface receptors, but also intracellular targets, are discussed.
Interaction of iron ions with melanin

Published: December 2019

One of the antioxidant roles of melanin is binding redox-active transition metal ions. The aim of this study was to examine the redox reactions accompanying iron binding by melanin. Two kinds of synthetic eumelanin were mixed with iron (II) and iron (III) in the presence and absence of citrate and ADP in the aerobic and anaerobic system. The iron binding was examined by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and thiocyanate assay. Obtained results indicate that although melanin reduces iron (III) that is unbound to this polymer, binding of iron (II) is accompanied by its oxidation by melanin.

Aim: It is known that personality can affect most of the issues related to physical and mental health. It is thought that some personality features carry importance as a factor in cancer development, and therefore, the theory of a cancer-prone personality continues to attract researchers’ attention. The aim of this study is to investigate and compare the differences in personality characteristics between patients with different types of cancer and healthy control group.Material and Methods: A total of 193 participants, patients with different types of cancer (n=100) and healthy individuals as the control group (n=93), were included in this study. Hacettepe Personality Inventory (HPI) was used to obtain the data related with personality traits.Results: The mean score of self-realization (SR) and emotional stability (ES), which are personal adaptation subscales of the HPI, was found to be significantly lower in cancer group compared to control group (p=0.016 and p=0.009). As a result of further analyses performed according to cancer types, it was found that both SR and ES scores in head-neck cancer group were lower than both control group and other subgroups of cancer types (p=0.004 and p=0.001).Conclusion: The results of this study revealed that there are differences between cancer and control groups in terms of personality characteristics. Overall, it was thought that the personality characteristics that are unique to patients with head-neck cancers may be the reactions that appear as a result of the development of head-neck cancer rather than a significant factor in cancer development.
TÜRK ANAYASAL GELİŞME TARİHİNDE EGEMENLİK KAVRAMININ GEÇİRDİĞİ DÖNÜŞÜMÜN ANA HATLARI

Egemenlik, devlet ve iktidar olgusunu analiz eden siyasal ve hukuksal
bir kavram olmasının yanında hükümet ve yetki kaynağına ilişkin
meşruluk araçlarını temin eden bir açıklama çerçevesini belirtir. Başka
bir anlatımla siyasi topluluğa hükmeden belli bir yerdeki nihai ve mutlak
güç fikri egemenlik nosyonuyla kendini ifade eder. Emreden, bağımsız,
bölünmez ve devredilmez yetki düzeni, egemenliğin kullanımında
kavramın başına yerleştirilen klasik siyasal nitelendirmelerdir. Devletin
bağımsızlığı, başka devletin müdahalesine uğramaması ve hükümet
biçiminde serbest davranması dış egemenlik terimiyle ifade edilirken iç
egemenlik, devlet iktidarının ülke üzerinde yaşayan insanların varlığını
sürdürmesi amacıyla hukuki ve siyasi örgütlenmenin yönlendirildiği
üstün hükmetme gücüyle donatılması anlamına gelmektedir. Anayasal
düzeyde ise egemenlik yetkisi, kural koyma (yasama), kuralları uygulama
(yürütme) ve anlaşmazlıkları çözme (yargı) fonksiyonları yanında iktidarın
bizatihi kaynağı, yetki dağılımı ve gücün niteliği sorunlarıyla bağlantılı
hukuksal bir öze sahiptir. Türk anayasal gelişme süreci egemenlik
kavramı etrafında evrensel çapta oluşan tanımlar, egemenlik türleri ve
egemenliğin aldığı biçimler çerçevesinde bir siyasal iktidar ve devlet
yetkileri düzeni takip etmeye çalışmıştır. Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun
19.yüzyılında başlayan süreç dünya anayasal hareketlerine paralel bir
seyir takip ederek egemenlik kavramını, küresel etki ve değişim dâhilinde
Türkiye Cumhuriyeti anayasa yapım sürecinin merkezi bir düzenleme ve
rekabet alanı haline getirmiştir.
