The Invention of the Nordic Cuisine
Authors: Mangiapane Francesco
Published: June 2020

The article proposes an analysis of the success of the restaurant Noma in Copenhagen. In order to achieve this goal, it focuses on the viewpoint of its chef, René Redzepi and analyses the new trending culinary movement known as New Nordic Cuisine. Behind the success of the restaurant Noma, a deep reconfiguration of the Northern European culinary culture can be recognized which is not limited to food but claims for a general turnover of the entire Scandinavian identity. The article enlightens a deep connection between the story of the fictional character Babette (protagonist of both the short novel and the movie “Babette’s Feast”) and the shift led by the New Nordic Cuisine’s movement over the identity of Northern Europe. Also, it shows how this new foundation represents a contemporary attempt of “reinvention” of the tradition, being built through aesthetic and semiotic tools turned into gastronomic actions.

Published: June 2020

This study examined the in vitro crude protein (CP) degradability of wilted, dried for hay and ensiled Medicago sativa, Trifolium pratense and Sorghum sudanense, as well as of ensiled legume-sudan grass mixtures. The rumen degradable protein (RDP) was estimated using the latest Cornell net carbohydrate and protein system (CNCPS v6.5) and with the Streptomyces griseus protease assay (48 h of incubation). Sudan grass forages were the lowest in moderately degradable CP and the highest in CP fraction C, while red clover showed the least values for the soluble true protein like alfalfa forages for slowly degradable protein bound in neutral detergent fibre (NDF). Ensiling of legume-sudan grass mixtures decreases N-NH3 content by 12.2 and 5.1% in comparison with alfalfa and red clover silages, respectively. The RDP values for sudan grass (fresh, wilted, hay) were lower by 7.2 to 7.9% or 10.4 to 15.7% (CNCPS or S. griseus procedure) and up to 0.8 or 5.3 to 9.7% in comparison with alfalfa and red clover, respectively. The reduction of protein degradability in ensiled legume-sudan grass mixtures was 5.5 or 6.1% and 1.5 or 3% compared to alfalfa and red clover silages, respectively. Due to higher rumen undegradable protein content, the sudan grass and legume-sudan grass mixtures may be efficiently used to improve the protein utilization in ruminant nutrition.

Births, Rebirths, and Horace’s genius : A Study of Odes IV, 11
Authors: Kachuck Aaron
Published: June 2020

Cet article donne un nouveau compte rendu du culte romain des anniversaires et du génie des oeuvres d’Horace. La théologie implicite du génie d''Horace, selon elle, reliait la sphère publique de l’État naissant (lui-même renforcé par le culte des anniversaires) à la sphère privée de sa relation avec Mécène et à la sphère solitaire de sa relation à lui-même. À la base, cet article résout deux problèmes soulevés par son dernier poème d''anniversaire, Odes IV, 11, «Le problème de l’offrande de sang » et «Le problème de l’anniversaire » . En révélant l’identification par Horace de ses naissances et renaissances avec celles de Mécène, cet article révèle la nouvelle coordination d''Horace du cosmos, de l’imperium et de l’individu, de manière à clarifier sa poésie, sa nouvelle théologie politique de l’empire et l’histoire du culte des anniversaires.
Stendhal, ou l’incroyant qui voulait croire / Stendhal, or the Unbeliever Who Wanted to Believe
Authors: Huttenberger-Revelli Charlène
Published: June 2020

Quelle image a-t-on de Stendhal ? Bien souvent celle d’un homme à l’anticléricalisme et à l’athéisme flamboyants. Cette réputation du reste est grandement justifiée : enfant sous la Révolution, puis romancier et essayiste sous la Restauration et la monarchie de Juillet, Stendhal n’a cessé de proclamer son incroyance et, parallèlement, de mener un combat acharné contre les professionnels de la croyance. Le roman stendhalien, roman violemment anticlérical, est ainsi peuplé de jésuites manipulateurs et de dévotes malfaisantes ayant pour objectif de s’emparer du pouvoir et de contrôler la société en soutenant de toutes leurs forces la nouvelle union du Trône et de l’Autel, de la monarchie et du catholicisme. Il est alors peu étonnant de constater que les héros de Stendhal sont très fréquemment des ennemis de la religion, qui entendent miner cette dernière, tantôt dissimulés sous le masque de Tartuffe, tantôt à visage découvert, dévoilant explicitement leur athéisme. Les enjeux de la croyance stendhalienne sont pourtant plus complexes qu’il n’y paraît au premier abord : touché depuis toujours par la beauté des cérémonies catholiques, Stendhal attribue sa propre sensibilité esthétique à ses personnages de roman, tout particulièrement à ses personnages italiens, en véritable amoureux de l’Italie. Il fait aussi de certains d’entre eux de profonds et de sincères croyants, et croit lui-même en l’existence de prêtres absolument pieux et réellement bons. Enfin, dans la lignée de Chateaubriand, Stendhal ne conçoit pas l’épanouissement de la passion amoureuse sans celui de la foi : dans ses fictions, les vrais amoureux sont aussi croyants. En définitive, Stendhal n’était-il pas un incroyant qui rêvait de croire ?
Comment classer et compter des dieux innombrables (2e partie) / How to Classify and Count Countless Gods ? (Part 2)
Authors: Macé François
Published: June 2020

Dès que la documentation apparaît, on note ce qui deviendra une double constante, l’affirmation de la multitude des dieux et le souci de les ordonner, de les classer, de les hiérarchiser. Après avoir dans le précédent numéro repéré plusieurs types de regroupements dans la multitude des dieux, avec une première partie : « Une multitude rythmée », et une deuxième partie : « Les dieux sont rarement seuls », il est temps de les administrer. Un État conçu sur le modèle chinois ne pouvait laisser les dieux en dehors de son emprise. Ils furent comptés, catalogués, distingués, promus. Ce phénomène concerna les dieux indigènes ou supposés tels. Les entités bouddhiques restèrent en dehors de ce vaste catalogage alors même que la fusion entre dieux et bouddhas progressait. Avec le déclin de l’État antique, on voit apparaître une restriction des ambitions de l’État et une restriction du nombre de dieux célébrés par la cour. Inversement, les cultes provinciaux se développèrent et s’organisèrent au niveau local. Vers la fin de l’époque médiévale se mettent en place des réseaux de sanctuaires consacrés au même dieu, tandis que chaque sanctuaire abritait de nombreuses divinités. Dans le même temps naissait une nouvelle arithmétique des dieux où l’empreinte du bouddhisme apparaît clairement grâce à son système d’interprétation des dieux. En réaction à la fusion médiévale, la modernité s’accompagna d’une nouvelle volonté de distinction entre dieux et bouddhas de la part d’une partie des élites. Les dieux furent enfin enrôlés pour la construction de l’État-nation de Meiji.

Advancement toward Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells at Elevated Temperatures
Authors: Zhang Jin , Aili David , Lu Shanfu , Li Qingfeng , Jiang San Ping
Published: June 2020

Elevation of operational temperatures of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) has been demonstrated with phosphoric acid-doped polybenzimidazole (PA/PBI) membranes. The technical perspective of the technology is simplified construction and operation with possible integration with, e.g., methanol reformers. Toward this target, significant efforts have been made to develop acid-base polymer membranes, inorganic proton conductors, and organic-inorganic composite materials. This report is devoted to updating the recent progress of the development particularly of acid-doped PBI, phosphate-based solid inorganic proton conductors, and their composite electrolytes. Long-term stability of PBI membranes has been well documented, however, at typical temperatures of 160°C. Inorganic proton-conducting materials, e.g., alkali metal dihydrogen phosphates, heteropolyacids, tetravalent metal pyrophosphates, and phosphosilicates, exhibit significant proton conductivity at temperatures of up to 300°C but have so far found limited applications in the form of thin films. Composite membranes of PBI and phosphates, particularly
in situ
formed phosphosilicates in the polymer matrix, showed exceptionally stable conductivity at temperatures well above 200°C. Fuel cell tests at up to 260°C are reported operational with good tolerance of up to 16% CO in hydrogen, fast kinetics for direct methanol oxidation, and feasibility of nonprecious metal catalysts. The prospect and future exploration of new proton conductors based on phosphate immobilization and fuel cell technologies at temperatures above 200°C are discussed.
Decongestive diuresis using combination intravenous loop diuretics plus chlorothiazide in type 1 acute cardiorenal syndrome and worsening acute kidney injury; a neglected paradigm in resource-poor settings
Authors: Onuigbo Macaulay Amechi Chukwukadibia
Published: June 2020

Over the last decade or more, there has grown a body of evidence demonstrating that renal dysfunction in heart failure is a combination of forward failure from reduced cardiac output and therefore reduced glomerular filtration rate, as well as "congestive renal failure" secondary to renal venous hypertension. We had demonstrated the efficacy of combination intravenous loop diuretics used concurrently with intravenous chlorothiazide to achieve significant renal salvage in such patients at the Mayo Clinic Health System in Northwestern Wisconsin. We describe a similar recent experience with three consecutive elderly patients at the University of Vermont Medical Center, Burlington, VT, USA. We posit that this paradigm of care is underutilized. We argue that aggressive decongestive therapy with combination intravenous loop and thiazide diuretics is a neglected and underutilized mechanism and must be utilized more frequently in the treatment of worsening renal failure with type 1 cardiorenal syndrome. This imperative is even most compelling in resource-poor settings where mechanical ultrafiltration with dialysis or similar machines is not available or simply not affordable. Moreover, we had also demonstrated that accelerated rising Pro B natriuretic peptide (Pro-BNP) in such patients portends a good prognosticator for renal salvage. We present here three consecutive elderly patients recently so managed successfully at the University of Vermont Medical Center in Burlington, VT, USA.

Published: June 2020

Individuals with chronic renal failure in stage three and after demonstrate anemia as a frequent complication. Although target hemoglobin levels remain debatable in pre-dialysis and dialysis patients, correction of anemia with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) has resulted in reduced need for blood transfusions, improved survival and enhanced overall quality of life. Owing to longer half-life and greater biological activity, darbepoetin alfa can maintain stable hemoglobin levels at extended dosing intervals. It is also economical and convenient with no compromise in efficacy. Studies have shown similar dose requirements for both intravenous versus subcutaneous darbepoetin in pre-dialysis and dialysis patients. This review article focuses on clinical outcomes of darbepoetin including the achieved hemoglobin target, maintenance of hemoglobin levels, all-cause mortality, cardiovascular events, additional blood transfusion, quality of life, and economic outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). This review also outlines the risk associated with darbepoetin administration and changes in guidelines recommendation for improving its use.

Authors: Tavafi Majid , Ahmadvand Hassan , Tamjidipour Ahmad , Hasanvand Afshin
Published: June 2020

Introduction: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are the main factors in pathogenesis of renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the renoprotective effect of rosmarinic acid (ROA) as an antioxidant substance against renal I/R injury. Materials and Methods: Forty male rats were divided into five groups. Group 1 control; group 2 ischemia reperfusion (I/R). Groups 3, 4 and 5 I/R treated by ROA 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg respectively. The treated groups (groups 3, 4 and 5) received ROA one hour before ischemia induction. Renal ischemia was induced by ligating of renal vessels through vascular clips. After 45 minutes of ischemia, the clips were removed to make renal recirculation (reperfusion). Twenty-four hours after the onset of reperfusion, under anesthesia blood were sampled and kidneys were removed. The serum and supernatant of renal homogenate were prepared. Serum creatinine, nitric oxide (NO) and paraoxonase (PON) were measured. The concentration of renal malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), glutathione (GSH) and catalase (CAT) activity were assessed. Results: The administration of ROA, decreased serum creatinine and increased serum NO and PON compared to group 2 (P<0.05). Renal MDA, GSH, GPX and CAT activity improved significantly in animals that received ROA in comparison to group 2. Conclusion: Administration of ROA improved renal I/R injuries via inhibition of lipid peroxidation and increase of GSH, GPX, CAT, NO and PON.

Published: June 2020

Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disease characterized by diminished insulin secretion and hyperglycemia leading to damage of multiple organs. The present study is aimed to test the association between type 2 diabetes vascular complications and K469E variant (rs5498) of the intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM1) gene. Methods: Online databases were searched to retrieve all publications relating to the ICAM1 rs5498 variant in human diabetic vascular complications. In the present meta-analysis, we included all eligible studies and calculated the pooled results using MetaGenyo web tool. Results: Studies concerning ICAM1 gene K469E variant association with either type 2 diabetes or diabetes related vascular complications were included in this meta-analysis. Fifteen articles were included in this analysis (n=10 for T2DM; n=5 for diabetes nephropathy; n=8 for diabetes retinopathy). ICAM1 K469E variant significantly increased the risk of T2DM in the allelic (OR = 1.10, 95% CI: 1.01-1.20, P = 0.032) and recessive models (OR = 1.27, 95% CI: 1.08-1.49, P = 0.004). However, the ICAM1 gene K469E variant is not associated with diabetic nephropathy or diabetic retinopathy. No noticeable evidence of publication bias was detected. Conclusion: In summary, our study indicated that ICAM1 K469E variant was significantly associated with the increased risk of diabetes but not with the diabetic vascular complications.

Introduction: Biopsy registries are important in studying the frequency of kidney diseases, their trends over time and allow comparison of data from different geographical regions. Objectives: We report the spectrum of biopsy-proven glomerular and tubular diseases in a single centre in Eastern India. Patients and Methods: Medical records of 1293 patients with biopsy-proven glomerular diseases (GDs) and tubular diseases over a period of three years (March 2013 to March 2016) were retrospectively analysed. All biopsy specimens were examined by the same pathologist with light and immunofluorescence microscopy. Electron microscopic (EM) analysis was performed only in selected cases. Histologic spectrum of various GDs was studied along with its correlation with the clinical and laboratory parameters. Results: The clinical diagnosis was nephrotic syndrome (NS) in 820 (63.41%), rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis in 194 (15.2%), asymptomatic urinary abnormalities (AUA) in 108 (8%), acute kidney injury (AKI)/acute nephritic syndrome in 118 (9.3%), and macroscopic hematuria (MH) in 3 (0.43%) patients. Male: Female ratio was 0.95. Around 22.42% were < 18 years, 72.2% were between 18to 59 years, and 5.3% were ≥ 60 years of age. The most common GD overall as well as primary glomerular disease (PGD) was minimal change disease (MCD) (21.6 and 83.44%). Secondary GD was present in 20.87%; most common being lupus nephritis (84.58%). Among the NS, the most common GD was MCD (33.17%), followed by FSGS (17.56%), membranous nephropathy (MN) (13.90%), lupus nephritis (LN) (9.39%), IgA-nephropathy (0.49%), and MPGN (7.32%). Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) constituted 24.6% of AKI presentation particularly common in pregnancy. Diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis (DPGN) with severe renal dysfunction was present in 14% of elderly patients. Conclusion: The spectrum of GD varies according to the area of study and changes over time. Some entities which have not been reported earlier from this region that are uncommon but are significant were pregnancy associated TMA, C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) and DPGN in adults.

Patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at high risk of developing COVID-19 complications and COVID-19 infection can also lead to renal dysfunction. Considering the importance of kidney function in COVID-19 patients, the present review is aimed to dig into the available evidence about kidney and COVID-19. We summarize the mechanisms underlying the renal injury in COVID-19 patients, and treatment strategies in dialysis and kidney transplant patients. We conclude, it is imperative to highlight the early monitoring of patients with AKI and carefully control kidney function during severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV-2) infection.
Unmasking the Hunter: An Exploration of Predatory Publishing
Authors: Bramstedt Katrina A.
Published: June 2020

Authors and their institutions are vulnerable to predatory publishers due to the “publish or perish” research mentality. The author’s spam-filtered emails from journals were collected for 90 days and analysed for 8 stylistic components; the journal website was explored for publishing fees, research ethics policies, and physical address; the publisher’s physical address was cross-checked in corporate registries for validation; each journal was checked for indexing in Embase®, MEDLINE®, and the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ). One hundred twenty email solicitations were received from 101 journals. Overall, 52 (43.3%) solicitations were from specialty medical journals (e.g., endocrinology, cardiology, orthopaedics); 23 (19.2%) were sent from general medicine journals. Flattery (77 emails) and grammar errors (761 total, x̅ 6.3/email) were common. Publication fees ranged from free to USD 5,000, with some journals requiring copyright transfer to the publisher yet charging authors and claiming to be open access. Most journals were found to be based in either India (75.3%) or Nigeria (17.8%); however, the physical address noted on the journal website was often deceptive (70.3%) or undisclosed (13.9%). Some of the journals had either no research ethics policy (n=7) or a policy that addressed only plagiarism (n=16). Guidance to detect predatory publishers is provided.

In coal mining activities, it is often found that coal reserves are located in layers far from the land surface, and can be located far below the riverbed. In such conditions, the choice that is often taken is to move the river flow. Displacement of river flows in accordance with the regulations allowed has its own challenges to minimize the risks that will occur to the environment. The aim of the study is to design the basis of a new channel to reduce the speed of the river flow, so that the function and sustainability of river use as an ecological function is not disturbed. The method used is to analyze the origin of the river channel discharge and design the dimensions of the diversion river channel. The results obtained, with forecasts of a 50 year return peak flood period of 104.17 m3 / sec and with a divergence in the elevation of the diverting river channel of 18.9 m between the planned upstream and downstream along the 6,212.7 m, then to avoid massive scouring at channel base, a maximum flow rate of 10 m / sec and a minimum of 0.8 m / sec with a channel bottom of  0.0005% is recommended. For this reason the base profile of the canal is trapped at a distance of 500 m, with an elevation difference of 0.25 m. To maintain ecological sustainability, the dimension of the diversion river channel is maintained the same as the original river, b = 8m, H = 3.5m, and H : V = 1.5: 1.

El Activo Biológico dentro de la empresa productiva es uno de los pilares fundamentales al momento de analizar la razonabilidad del proceso de amortización que tendrá el activo frente a la producción obtenida durante un periodo. En la actualidad implementar un cambio dentro de un proceso ya establecido genera grandes contradicciones, porque imperan análisis de procesos, optimización de resultados y control de actividades que ayuden a obtener mejoras a nivel financiero. El objetivo del presente artículo es analizar el proceso para el cálculo de la amortización de los activos bilógicos bajo normativa “Normas Internacionales de Contabilidad NIC 41”. En cuanto al método de investigación, es de tipo documental con un alcance descriptivo, bajo el método deductivo. La fuente de información para el tratamiento de los datos es una empresa productiva del sector avícola, permitiendo conocer los pasos para obtener el valor amortizable por mes de los lotes productivos de la empresa de análisis. La principal conclusión es que los pasos presentados para llegar al valor que posteriormente será registrado contablemente soportan de forma clara el tratamiento del activo biológico en toda su etapa de producción, aunque el cálculo para determinar el valor permite analizar el costo de amortización por unidades totales producidas durante el mes, es necesario recalcar que el importe en libros se verá reflejado durante el costeo del huevo durante el mes de cierre en la cuenta Inventarios.

Authors: Freire Stephania , Freire Ramiro
Published: June 2020

En el mercado habitacional en el Ecuador específicamente en la ciudad de Quito, tanto la oferta, como la demanda reflejan condiciones alentadoras en cuanto a la construcción y comercialización de viviendas. En el presente artículo se detalla un plan de negocios para la Inmobiliaria Torre Marshall, orientado a la comercialización de viviendas y locales comerciales dirigido a clientes de clase media-alta en los sectores más estratégicos y exclusivos de la ciudad de Quito. El estudio se enmarca en un tipo documental, de alcance descriptivo, con un enfoque cuantitativo, puesto que se consideran documentos de diversa índole para describir el mercado de bienes raíces que da soporte al plan de negocio de la inmobiliaria. La principal conclusión es que a nivel nacional es justamente Quito el de mayor proporción de ofertas inmobiliarias, aunque circunstancialmente la demanda se haya frenado debido a la situación económica y política, la recuperación es inminente y expedita. Así mismo, la densidad poblacional de la ciudad es baja, lo cual evidencia su potencial de crecimiento. De allí que el proyecto de la inmobiliaria Torre Marshall acorde a los estudios legales, técnicos y financieros, se vislumbre como un excelente negocio, que comenzará con la Torre Marshall como un proyecto piloto, que demuestra la preminencia de construcciones de vivienda vertical para el aprovechamiento del espacio físico urbano, dada la imposibilidad de la cuidad de crecer horizontalmente.
Monitoreo de la tasa de error de modulación de la señal digital de televisión
Authors: Rodríguez Nancy
Published: June 2020

El servicio de televisión terrestre que se utiliza en Ecuador es en formato analógico NTSC (National Television System Comittee), pero las cadenas televisivas y de radiodifusión están realizando los cambios necesarios para la generación y envió de la señal digital a los usuarios debido al apagón analógico que esta por realizarse en los siguientes años y así poder dar paso a la televisión digital y optimizar los servicios como la calidad del audio y video, tener una guía de programación, poder receptar la señal de televisión en dispositivos móviles. En el canal de televisión Televicentro se necesita analizar la generación de la señal digital para realizar el monitoreo de la tasa de error de la modulación y poder saber en qué lugares se debe medir la tasa de error de modulación para comparar los valores y verificar la calidad de la señal. En la ciudad de Quito no se ha realizado el análisis de la generación de la señal digital del canal Televicentro, porque el canal es relativamente nuevo lleva al aire más de dos años y también por políticas de seguridad de la empresa. Se realiza el análisis de la generación de la señal digital radiada en la estación terrena, para realizar mediciones que permitan monitorear la tasa de error de modulación y con esos datos verificar la calidad de dicha señal del canal Televicentro de Quito. La tasa de error de modulación es el parámetro que cuantifica los errores de una constelación digital, este factor facilita valorar si una señal digital es buena; el cálculo de este factor en transmisión lleva implícita la demodulación de la señal para la evaluación. En la recepción, este parámetro se determina tras la demodulación propia de la recepción de los datos. En ambos casos, es necesario el uso de la constelación de transmisión normalizada como referencia; la calidad de la señal que se transmite en la estación terrena del canal Televicentro tuvo un valor promedio de 36.554dB y de 34.38dB en la recepción de la señal digital, respecto al valor mínimo que se debe superar en este caso de 23dB y llegando a un valor óptimo de 40dB.
