Authors: Chernikova E. F. , Troshin V. V. , Nekrasova M. M. , Zuev A. V.
Published: November 2019

Back pain is one of the most common causes of temporary disability (TD) and medical aid appealability. Pain syndrome of lumbosacral localization is typical for the class of diseases of the musculoskeletal system (DMSS). The factors of workload be the cause of the development of occupationally determined DMSS. Given the possibility of the impact of same factors on traffic policemen, it seems relevant to study the risk of developing DMSS in this group workers.

The aim of study based on the study of working conditions of traffic police inspectors and the prevalence of BCMS among THEM to assess the degree of professional conditioning of the analyzed diseases.

The assessment of working conditions of inspectors of traffic police with measurement of levels of influence of professional factors was carried out. Retrospective analysis of health status was carried out according to the data of outpatient cards (431 cards) and sick leaves (568 sheets for 369 people), as well as subjectively according to the results of a survey (117 questionnaires) in different age and age groups. Nonparametric and parametric methods of variational statistics were used to establish the reliability of the differences.

Working conditions of traffic police inspectors-harmful fourth degree (class 3.4), limiting factors were the microclimate (3.3), tension (3.3) and the severity of work (3.2). Predicted index of occupational diseases — 0,5–1,0 — very high (intolerable) occupational risk. BCMS ranked 1st in the structure of morbidity and amounted to 37.12±2.3 cases per 100 workers–2.8 times higher than the average. The linear character of the increase in the cases of BKMS with experience was observed (approximation coefficient R2=0.98; p<0.001). The increase in the number of cases of BCMS in the group with experience of 10 years or more compared to the group up to 5 years is statistically significant: χ2=29.79 (p<0.001).

The linear nature of the dependence of the increase in the number of diseases with experience was revealed. Professional conditionality of development of BKMS in group of inspectors of traffic police traffic police is statistically proved. The level of relative occupational risk in the BCMS class is high.

Association Dicranoweisio-Deschampsietum ass. nov. in cold desert belt of Putorana plateau (Srednesibirskoe plateau)
Authors: Matveyeva N. V.
Published: November 2019

New association Dicranoweisio-Deschampsietum ass. nov. with 2 variants within the class Salicetea herbaceae Br.-Bl. 1947 is described for the cold desert belt of the Putorana plateau (Srednesibirskoe plateau). Its species composition represents the combination of species charac­ter for both the snow beds in the northern part of Taymyr peninsula (ass. Deschampsio-Cerastietum regelii Mat­veye­va 1994) and zonal vegetation of the polar deserts (асс. Aulacomnio-Deschampsietum prov., unpublished author’s data) on Bolshevik Isl. (Severnaya Zemlya Archipelago) with common dominating tufted grass De­schampsia borealis. Compare to the mentioned associa­tions it is poorer in species numbers within all groups of plants (vascular, mosses, liverworts, lichens) due to the restricted number of plain arctic species. Its horizontal structure demonstrates a larger similarity with the polar desert communities.

Results of a syntaxonomical study of the plant com­munities of the large lake Syndor (North-East of the European part of Russia) are presented. The diversity of hydrophytic vegetation has been classified into 2 classes (Potametea and Phragmito-Magnocaricetea), 3 orders (Potametalia, Phragmitetalia, Magnocaricetalia), 4 alliances, 11 associations, 7 variants and 2 communities. Association Nupharetum spenne­rianae is new. Floristic peculiarities of the lake Syndor macrophytic communities are shown. They differ from the similar communities in other regions of Russia by the absence of pleustophytic species.
Swamp plant communities with Salix reptans Rupr. and S. lanata L. in the west of tundra zone of Taymyr Peninsula
Authors: Zanokha L. L.
Published: November 2019

The 2 new associations, Carici stantis—Salicetum reptantis and Salico-Polemonietum acutiflori, are described within the all. Caricionstantis of the class Scheuchzerio-Caricetea fuscae R. Tx. 1937 for the northern belt of the typical tundra subzone of Taymyr. The diagnostic species group of the first syntaxon includes plants typical of sites with excessive watering. The ass. Carici stantis—Salicetum reptantis is restricted to bottoms or lower parts of the watershed and moun­tain terrace slopes. The ecological regime of these sites is subject to slight variations reflected in presence/ absence of certain species. Due to floristic differences, the association is subdivided into several subassociations which form a topographic-ecological series along the humidity gradient: epilobietosum palustris→ptilidietosum ciliaris→typicum→petasitetosum frigidi. The ass. Carici stantis—Salicetum reptantis is referred to the all. Caricionstantis which also includes the associations Meesiotriquetris—Caricetumstantis and Pooarcticae—Dupontietumfisheri (also described from the Ragozinka R. basin); the latter occur in the wet depres­sions between sloping hills and the flowing valleys, respectively. If compared to these two, the ass. Carici stantis—Salicetum reptantis is shown to hold an intermediate position between them.

The ass. Salico-Polemonietum acutiflori with the 2 variants, Salix lanata and S. reptans, represents various variants of mire vegetation which have under­gone zoogenic transformation (by lemmings). The stands size 1—1.5 m2 in space. The diagnostic species group comprises plants common of the wet mossy stream banks. The association is referred to the all. Caricion stantis, although many diagnostic species of the alliance are not present in its composition. When the new data are available, the association is probable to be separated into an independent alliance.

Existed since the late 60-ies of the last century, Laboratory of vegetation of the arid zone V. L. Komarov Botanical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences in 1993 was transformed into a Laboratory of vegetation of the steppe zone of geopolitical change led to the fact that the arid lands presents now in our country is mainly steppes. Since then 10 years have passed, it is already possible to draw some conclusions. As a result of human activities, the steppe, like most grassy biomes arid regions of the world, almost completely destroyed, and the remaining vegetation is degraded. In this regard, one of the goals of this Laboratory is to determine (primarily in the European part of the country, subjected to the most heavy anthropogenic load), where fragments of steppes and what is their condition.

Representasi Iman Kristen di Negara Sekuler: Analisis Wacana Film God’s Not Dead
Authors: Yahya Yuangga Kurnia
Published: November 2019

Film merupakan salah satu media komunikasi massa yang juga merupakan produk budaya populer. Pada saat ini, film juga memiliki andil yang besar dalam mengkonstruksi berbagai realitas. Beberapa realitas yang ada di film seringkali menyingkap hal-hal yang tidak terlalu tampak di masyarakat umum, salah satunya adalah masalah keagamaan dan keimanan. Objek pembahasan ini adalah Trilogi film God’s Not Dead (2014), God’s Not Dead 2 (2016), dan God’s Not Dead: A Light in Darkness (2018).Artikel ini merupakan hasil dari studi kualitatif menggunakan pendekatan analisis wacana model Teun A Van Dijk. Wacana dalam film tidak cukup disandarkan pada teks semata karena ia terdiri dari berbagai struktur dan tingkatan. Struktur tersebut adalah struktur makro, super struktur, dan struktur mikro. Dari hasil penelitian ditemukan bahwa penyusunan wacana cukup terstruktur, mulai dari struktur Tematik, Struktur Skematik, Struktur Semantik, Struktur Sintaksis, Struktur Stilistik, dan struktur retorisnya. Struktur Makro meliputi struktur tematik, super struktur meliputi struktur skematik, adapun sisanya termasuk dalam struktur mikro. Kedua unsur dari struktur tersebut menunjukkan bahwa film ini memang menyampaikan pesan nyata bahwa Tuhan tetap memiliki tempat di kehidupan manusia meskipun hidup di lingkungan yang sangat rasional dan tidak melibatkan Tuhan dalam kehidupan mereka.

Do more attractive women show stronger preferences for male facial masculinity?
Authors: Docherty Ciaran , Lee Anthony J , Hahn Amanda , DeBruine Lisa Marie , Jones Benedict C
Published: November 2019

Researchers have suggested that more attractive women will show stronger preferences for masculine men because such women are better placed to offset the potential costs of choosing a masculine mate. However, evidence for correlations between measures of women’s own attractiveness and preferences for masculine men is mixed. Moreover, the samples used to test this hypothesis are typically relatively small. Consequently, we conducted two large-scale studies that investigated possible associations between women’s preferences for facial masculinity and their own attractiveness as assessed from third-party ratings of their facial attractiveness (Study 1, N = 454, laboratory study) and self-rated attractiveness (Study 2, N = 8972, online study). Own attractiveness was positively correlated with preferences for masculine men in Study 2 (self-rated attractiveness), but not Study 1 (third-party ratings of facial attractiveness). This pattern of results is consistent with the proposal that women’s beliefs about their own attractiveness, rather than their physical condition per se, underpins attractiveness-contingent masculinity preferences.
Forgetting and Symbolic Insight: Delay Improves Children’s Use of a Novel Symbol
Authors: Sheehan Kelly , Ferguson Brock , Msall Camille , Uttal David
Published: November 2019

To use a symbol, children must understand that the symbol stands for something in the world. This development has often been investigated in the model-room task (DeLoache, 1987, 2000) in which children use a scale model to try to find a toy that is hidden in the room that the model represents. To succeed, children must acquire dual representation: they must put aside their understanding of the model as an object and focus more on what the model represents (Hartstein & Berthier, 2017). Here we suggest that forgetting irrelevant details or misleading information may be an important part of acquiring and maintaining dual representation. Based on prior research showing that forgetting can promote insight in children and adults (e.g., Sio & Ormerod, 2009; Vlach et al., 2014) and that a small sample of 3-year-olds could improve on the model-room task with a delay (Marzolf & DeLoache, 1994), we hypothesized that taking a break during the model-room task would facilitate forgetting and hence symbolic insight. Eighty-eight 3-year-olds performed 8 trials of the model-room task. Half of the children received a 24-hour delay after trial 4 and half performed the 8 trials consecutively. Children who received a 24-hour delay had better symbolic performance on the last 4 trials compared to children whose testing sessions occurred consecutively on one day, even when statistically controlling for the effects of learning over trials and memory on children’s performance. This study provides strong initial evidence that a delay can promote symbolic insight in 3-year-old children.
Bias from network misspecification under spatial dependence
Authors: Betz Timm , Cook Scott J , Hollenbach Florian M
Published: November 2019

The pre-specification of the network is one of the biggest hurdles for applied researchers in undertaking spatial analysis. In this letter, we demonstrate two results. First, we derive bounds for the bias in non-spatial models with omitted spatially-lagged predictors or outcomes. These bias expressions can be obtained without prior knowledge of the network, and are more informative than familiar omitted variable bias formulas. Second, we derive bounds for the bias in spatial econometric models with non-differential error in the specification of the weights matrix. Under these conditions, we demonstrate that an omitted spatial input is the limit condition of including a misspecificed spatial weights matrix. Simulated experiments further demonstrate that spatial models with a misspecified weights matrix weakly dominate non-spatial models. Our results imply that, where cross-sectional dependence is presumed, researchers should pursue spatial analysis even with limited information on network ties.
Preparations of superhydrophobic surfaces using the one-step spin coating method and characterizations of their anti-icing behavior
Authors: Li C. Q. , Zhan Y. L. , Lei S. , Li W.
Published: November 2019

Superhydrophobic surfaces with an excellent anti-icing performance were prepared on an aluminum substrate using a simple one-step spin coating method. The wettability, morphology, and surface compositions of the prepared surfaces were characterized using the measuring instrument for contact angle and sliding angle, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, respectively. The contact angle of the as-prepared superhydrophobic surfaces was as high as 165 ± 1.5°, and the sliding angle was less than 5° for a 4 μL pure water droplet, indicating excellent superhydrophobicity and low adhesion. The effects of addition of ZnO powders in different amounts on the morphology and wettability were further analyzed. Moreover, the anti-icing performance of the superhydrophobic surfaces was investigated using a simple lab-made icing monitoring apparatus, and the results are discussed using the one dimensional heat transfer and classical nucleation theory. It was found that the theoretical icing time of the superhydrophobic sample was about five times longer than that of the reference sample whereas for the untreated aluminum, the contact angle was 72 ± 1.5°, which was nearly consistent with the experimental results. The present study demonstrates that the prepared superhydrophobic surface can delay the icing time and decrease the icing temperature, and could be found potential applications in various industries.

This paper reports the comparative study of the microstructure, melting point, hardness and electrical resistivity of as-cast eutectic Sn-8.8 wt.% Zn, Sn-3.5 wt.% Ag, Sn-43 wt.% Bi and Sn-0.7 wt.% Cu lead-free solder alloys. Sn-3.5 wt.% Ag eutectic solder alloy was found to have the lowest electrical resistivity of 1.91 μΩ · cm whereas the highest electrical resistivity of 14.17 μΩ · cm was observed in the case of Sn-43 wt.% Bi eutectic solder alloy. The lowest melting point of 141.60°C was observed in the case of Sn-43 wt.% Bi eutectic alloy whereas the highest melting point of 243.28°C was observed in the case of Sn-3.5 wt.% Ag solder alloy. The results of the various solder alloys were compared with the properties of commercially available Sn-38.1 wt.% Pb eutectic solder alloy.
The role of steroid receptors in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis in the presence of concomitant endometrial pathology in postmenopause
Authors: Honcharenko G.Yu.
Published: November 2019

Determining the pathogenesis of adenomyosis in postmenopausal women is promising, as it will allow a more thorough study of the mechanisms of hormonal changes and resolve issues related to adenomyosis in women of reproductive age. The purpose of the study is to establish the role of steroid receptors in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis in the presence of concomitant endometrial pathology in postmenopausal women. Study material is removed uteri with parovaria from 117 patients of 49-76 years old. The cases were divided into 4 groups depending on the presence of adenomyosis (AM) and background pathology (endometrioid carcinoma of the endometrium (ECE) and endometrial hyperplasia (EHP)): 1) 27 women with adenomyosis and EHP; 2) 30 women with adenomyosis and ECE; 3) 30 women with adenomyosis and age-related changes in the endometrium; 4) 30 women with age-related changes without AM (comparison group). The immunohistochemical reaction was carried out using primary antibodies to estrogen (ER), progesterone (PR) and androgen (AR) receptors. Statistical processing was carried out using parametric methods of variation statistics (calculated the arithmetic mean, standard deviation, confidence interval, Student criterion). The predominance of the ER expression in the glandular and stromal components of the eutopic endometrium in the presence of AM and hyperplastic processes was compared with the comparison group (p<0.01). A high level of ER expression is characteristic of the epithelium of the endometrium with EHP (7.333±0.314) and ECE (6.200±0.712) rather than for the endometrium with atrophic changes in the presence of AM (4.433±0.773). In the stroma, a high ER activity was detected with EHP (7.148±0.276) rather than with atrophic changes (4.567±0.738) and ECE (4.167±0.602). It was established that in the epithelium of adenomyosis foci, ER expression indices were lower in atrophy (3.433±1.074) than with AM foci in ECE (4.667±0.526) and EHP (5.148±0.745). In the stroma of adenomyosis foci, ER expression is higher in EHP than in ECE and atrophy. The activity of PR in the eutopic endometrium decreases from simple non-typical to complex atypical EHP and in patients with adenomyosis and ECE, as the degree of differentiation of cells of ECA decreases (from G1 to G3 ECE). A minimal expression of PR was found in the comparison group. In the cells of internal endometriosis there were positive indices of immunohistochemical reaction with PR. There were obtained minimum scores for receptor expression of AR in eu- and ectopic endometria. Conclusion: adenomyosis foci have a regulatory effect on the uterine endometrium, stimulating the expression of ER and, to a lesser extent, PR, and do not affect the level of AR in the eutopic endometrium.
Introduction
Authors: Sausdal David , Vigh Henrik
Published: November 2019

This introduction seeks to outline a contemporary anthropological approach to crime and criminalization, an “anthropological criminology 2.0.” This anthropological criminology distances the subfield from its social Darwinist connotations and instead etches itself clearly onto a social and political anthropological tradition. In doing so, the introduction moves from Malinowski’s initial functionalist and localist approach to present-day political and global orientations. It offers five distinct propositions for anthropological criminology to engage with in the future, which we believe are essential for future anthropological studies of crime and criminalization. With these as guidelines, we hope to fully revive a much-needed dialogue between criminology and anthropology. As we shall see, anthropological and ethnographic insights are currently in demand as global, yet poorly understood, forms of crime are developing alongside ever cruder and more amplified reactions to them.
Organized criminals, human rights defenders, and oil companies
Authors: Ofrias Lindsay , Roecker Gordon
Published: November 2019

This article examines how the world’s arguably largest oil disaster, in the heart of Ecuador’s Amazon rainforest, has become a testing ground for new global forms of corporate power and the criminalization of dissent. Following the ongoing “trial of the century” between Chevron Corporation and plaintiffs representing tens of thousands of smallholder farmers and indigenous people affected by the disaster, we look at how the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act has been applied against the affected people and their lawyers to sidestep the norm of international comity and alter the parameters for pursuing environmental justice. Specifically, we point to how the case—and a new crop of cases following suit—has threatened to criminalize the use of “lawfare” as a “weapon of the weak.”
Policing at a distance and that human thing
Authors: Sausdal David
Published: November 2019

Policing technologies are increasingly being developed to surveil and control people from afar. This is especially true in relation to cross-border crimes and other global threats where the necessity of monitoring such illegal flows is often advocated. In the literature, this is sometimes referred to as “policing at a distance,” signifying how the growth in different policing technologies is allowing police to oversee people without coming into physical contact with them. Overall, scholars find this development alarming. It is alarming because it reduces human lives to data points and because studies have shown how policing at a distance may trigger hateful police attitudes. With these problems of policing at a distance in mind, this article explores how an increasing use of surveillance technologies affects Danish detectives.
The emotional labor of former street children working as tour guides in Delhi
Authors: Holst Tore
Published: November 2019

In Delhi, former street children guide tourists around the streets they once inhabited and show how the NGOs they live with try to resocialize current street children. The “personal stories” they perform implicitly advocate simple solutions that conveniently fit the limited engagement of the tourists, whose ethical position is thereby validated in relation to the NGO. But this uncomplicated exchange of guides’ emotions for tourists’ capital is in the guides’ interest, because it allows them to set boundaries for the emotional labor of performing their past suffering. The guides are thus incentivized to work within a post-humanitarian logic, selling their stories as commodities, which then incentivize the tourists to act as consumers, who have little choice but to frame their declarations of solidarity with the children as acts of consumption.
Sport and nationalism in the Republic of North Macedonia
Authors: Neofotistos Vasiliki P.
Published: November 2019

Using the Republic of North Macedonia as a case study, this article analyzes the processes through which national sports teams’ losing performance acquires a broad social and political significance. I explore claims to sporting victory as a direct product of political forces in countries located at the bottom of the global hierarchy that participate in a wider system of coercive rule, frequently referred to as empire. I also analyze how public celebrations of claimed sporting victories are intertwined with nation-building efforts, especially toward the global legitimization of a particular version of national history and heritage. The North Macedonia case provides a fruitful lens through which we can better understand unfolding sociopolitical developments, whereby imaginings of the global interlock with local interests and needs, in the Balkans and beyond.
A project of creating atlas aftershocks of strong earthquakes
Authors: Guglielmi A. V. , Zavyalov A. D. , Zotov O. D.
Published: November 2019

The Omori Law, which describes the repeated underground shocks after a strong earthquake, is written in the form of a nonlinear differential equation. An idea of the focal deactivation coefficient after the main shock is introduced. Two advantages of the new wording of the Omori Law are given. Firstly, there is an interesting possibility to naturally take into account exogenous and endogenous triggers affecting the earthquake source. Endogenous triggers in the form of round-the-world seismic echo and free oscillations of the Earth, excited by the main shock, are especially noted. The second advantage is that the differential aftershock equation makes it possible to put the reverse problem of the earthquake source physics. The essence of the inverse problem is to determine the deactivation coefficient from the data on the observed aftershock frequency. Examples of inverse problem solution are given. The project of creation of the Atlas of aftershocks on the basis of the solution of the inverse problem of the source, cooling down after a strong earthquake is offered.

Abstract
The idea of the Islamization of science or other terms that are close to it is one of the issues that has received a widespread response from Muslim intellectuals throughout the world including Indonesia. For reasons that are ideological and technical, the idea of Islamization of science in its journey in addition to causing debate and pros and cons, in practice also has not shown significant results. Muslim intellectuals who are characterized by an attitude of dissatisfaction with the establishment and ignorance, always offer new ideas and thoughts that are sometimes out of the mainstreaming prevailing in the society. Islamic universities or other educational institutions where Muslim intellectuals are located, it is interesting to question their response to the idea of Islamization of the science and the concrete formulations it offers. Using qualitative data written by authoritative experts, this article further attempts to trace the response of Muslim intellectuals in Indonesia to the idea of the Islamization of scienc

The effect itself consists of two components: social facilitation in simple tasks and social inhibition in complex tasks. In the context of the dynamic development of new technologies, the question of the possible influence on human behavior by virtual characters gains importance. We attempted to critically describe and summarize current research on social facilitation in order to answer the question of whether it occurs in virtual environments. We found 13 relevant studies, 3 of which demonstrated social facilitation, 4 social inhibition and 1 demonstrated the whole effect. The conclusions drawn from the analysis are ambiguous. Firstly, we identified that 12 out of 13 analyzed studies failed to show the whole effect. Secondly, we encountered several shortcomings of the summarized research that further complicated its interpretation. The shortcomings: presence of the researcher, unclear usage of “agent” and “avatar”, evaluation of activation, no pilot tests of observers and no description of how their characteristics are generated, among others, are discussed. Furthermore, we investigated the effect sizes and their variability. The average effect size for social facilitation was g = 0.18, CI [-0.28; 0.64] and for social inhibition g = -0.18, CI [-0.40; 0.04]. In social facilitation, a substantial level of heterogeneity was detected. Finally, we conclude that it is still too early to provide a definite answer to the question of whether social facilitation exists in Virtual Environments. We recommend limiting evaluation activation to the lowest possible level, conducting pilot tests prior to the experiment, avoiding the presence of the researcher in the experimental room and a clear distinction of “agent” and “avatar”, as measures to achieve a better quality in future research.

Published: November 2019

Ege bölgelerinde yetiştirilmektedir. Üretilen turunçgil meyvelerinin yaklaşık %60’ı taze olarak, %40’ı ise meyve suyu olarak tüketilmektedir. C vitamininin önemli bir kaynağı olmasının yanı sıra posa, folat ve B vitaminleri ile potasyum, kalsiyum, fosfor, magnezyum, bakır minerallerini içermektedir. Turunçgil meyveleri, polifenolik bileşiklerinden flavonoidlerin de önemli bir kaynağıdır. Flavonoid miktarı, bitkinin türü, konsantrasyonu ve meyvenin bölümlerine göre dağılımı gibi genetik ve çevresel faktörlere bağlı olarak değişmektedir. Son yıllarda turunçgil flavonoidlerinin sağlık üzerindeki potansiyel terapötik etkileri ilgi çekicidir. Kardiyovasküler hastalıklar ve turunçgil flavonoidleri içeren meyve ve meyve suları tüketimi ile ilgili yapılan araştırmalarda bu bileşiklerin lipid düşürücü, insülin duyarlılığını arttırıcı, antihipertansif ve antiinflamatuar etkileri olduğu gözlenmiş ancak etki mekanizmaları net olarak belirlenememiştir. Bu derleme makalede, turunçgil flavonoidlerinin kimyasal özellikleri ve kardiyovasküler sağlık üzerindeki potansiyel etkileri güncel yaklaşımlara göre değerlendirilmiştir.

Los Proyectos de Desarrollo Tecnológico y Social (PDTS) en la Universidad de Buenos Aires
Authors: Senejko María Paula , Versino Mariana
Published: November 2019

Desde finales de la década de los noventa, muchas universidades del país han experimentado transformaciones en la producción de conocimientos principalmente promovidas por la creación de políticas orientadas a la atención de demandas sociales externas y a una mayor vinculación con actores sociales no académicos (Arocena y Sutz, 2000; Sutz 2005; Unzué y Rovelli, 2017). La propuesta del año 2012 del entonces Ministerio de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación Productiva (MINCYT) de crear un banco de proyectos orientados a contemplar necesidades socio-productivas específicas requeridas por adoptantes concretos constituye un ejemplo de ello y plantea un nuevo desafío a las Instituciones de Educación Superior. En el caso particular de la Universidad de Buenos Aires (UBA), esto alentó a la realización de una convocatoria de Proyectos de Desarrollo Tecnológico y Social (PDTS) en el año 2012. Este trabajo se propone analizar los resultados y el desempeño de dichos proyectos, que finalizaron en el año 2015.
Los consejos de investigaciones y la tensión entre culturas burocráticas y académicas. El CONICET entre 1983-1989
Authors: Svampa Fernando , Aguiar Diego
Published: November 2019

El interés de este artículo es debatir el rol de los consejos de investigaciones en los Sistemas Públicos de Investigación (SPI), tomando al CONICET de la Argentina como estudio de caso. En primer lugar, en un período que abarca el gobierno del presidente Raúl Alfonsín con el retorno de la democracia, ¿cuál ha sido el modelo de gobernanza interna adoptado y los cambios en la autoridad relativa dentro del CONICET, en el SPI de la Argentina durante el período de 1983-1989? En segundo lugar, en el marco de la aparición de nuevos actores en la Secretaria de Ciencia y Técnica (SECYT), ¿cómo los cambios en la gobernanza del SPI y en particular del CONICET alteraron la composición y poder relativo de la cultura burocrática y académica? La metodología incluye el análisis de documentos oficiales y entrevistas realizadas a informantes claves del período.
The Politics of Wishful Thinking? Disentangling the Role of the Scholar-Scientist from that of the Public Intellectual in the Modern Academic Study of Religion
Authors: WIEBE DONALD
Published: November 2019

Although religion may well have relevance for various social, political, economic, cultural, and other related issues in society, I will argue here that this does not oblige the academic student of religion to become engaged with those matters. Indeed, to do so - not as a citizen but as a member of the academic guild which has responsibility to the field/discipline of Religious Studies and the modern research university at large - is to fuse and therefore confuse advocacy and scholarship. The task of the student of religion, qua scientist, is to seek to understand and to explain religion and religions, not to create the good society. I attempt to show here that with the infiltration of the ideal of the student of religion as public intellectual - whether as religious critic, critic of religion, or member of a new secular clerisy - the scientific agenda of seeking disinterested knowledge about religion and religions has been, and continues to be, eroded if not displaced.

Kelurahan Aimas merupakan bagian dari distrik Aimas di Kabupaten SorongÂ  yang sebagian penduduknya masih mengandalkan penghasilan dari bercocok tanam. Budidaya tanaman dilakukan pada lahan-lahan yang produktivitasnya semakin menurun, sehingga menunrunkan juga produksi tanaman. Berbagai factor menjadi penyebab hal tersebut seperti penurunan kandungan hara akibat lahan yang telah lama atau dalam jangka waktu lama diolah, penggunaanÂ  pupuk anorganik dalam jangka waktu lama ataapun penggunaan pestisida yang digunakan dalam jangka waktu lama dengan tidak pada aturan sehingga menyebabkan penurunan kualitas tanah atau penurunan produktivitas tanah dalam menghasilkan tanaman. Upaya yang dapat dilakukan yaitu dengan mengadakan pendekatan kepada petani melalui berbagai kegiatan seperti mentransfer ilmu dalam menjagaÂ  atau memperbaiki lahan dengan berbagai cara yang dilakukan seperti mengetahu berbagai penyebab kerusakan tanah, cara-cara memperbaiki kerusakan tanah serta bagaimana penerapan Â pemberian pupuk organic ke dalam tanah. Untuk menjaga keberlanjutan lahan.

Intradialytic Hypotension is a major complication during hemodialysis session, associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events and mortality. Its pathophysiology is believed to be multifactorial and remains not well elucidated. The aim of this study is to put forward new mechanisms behind the development of intradialytic hypotension. The study included sixty-five subjects on chronic hemodialysis, divided into two groups: intradialytic hypotensive (n=12) and normotensive (n=53), according to the variation of systolic blood pressure between post-dialysis and pre-dialysis measurements. Renin and angiotensin converting enzyme I plasma concentrations increased in both groups but more likely in normotensive group. Aldosterone plasma concentration is increased in the normotensive group while it decreased in the intradialytic hypotension group. Plasma endothelin concentrations showed higher values in intradialytic hypotension group. Post-dialysis asymmetric dimethylarginine and angiotensin converting enzyme 2 plasma concentrations were significantly higher in intradialytic hypotension group as compared to normotensive one. Collectrin plasma concentrations were significantly lower in intradialytic hypotension group. Finally, post-dialysis vascular endothelial growth factor C plasma concentration significantly increased in intradialytic hypotension group. In conclusion, endothelial dysfunction characterized by a lower level of vasoactive molecule seems to play a critical role in intradialytic hypotension development.

The former perception of the urothelium as an impermeable barrier has been revised during the last decade, as increasing evidence of changes in urine composition during its passage of the urinary tract has been presented. Since differences in urothelial permeability between upper and lower urinary tract have been found, our aim is to demonstrate whether changes in urine composition occur during passage through the ureter. We studied consecutive urine samples from both renal pelvises in six pigs and compared them to samples from the bladder and distal ureter. We further sampled urine during storage in the bladder at a fixed volume. All samples were analysed by measuring osmolality and pH, along with the concentration of the following parameters: Na+, K+, Cl-, creatinine, urea. Urine alkalinity increased significantly during passage of the ureter. Creatinine concentration, pH and K+ increased significantly during the passage from pelvis to the bladder. All other parameters increased non-significantly during the passage to the bladder. The increase in concentration was more pronounced at low concentrations in the pelvis. During storage in the bladder, there was a significant increase in urea concentration. Changes in the composition of urine occur during its passage from the renal pelvis to the bladder and during storage in the bladder. Despite the brief transit time, significant changes in alkalinity were found already during passage through the ureter.
Histone Deacetylase Inhibition has Cardiac and Vascular Protective Effects in Rats With Pressure Overload Cardiac Hypertrophy

Published: November 2019

Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors have shown beneficial effects in animal models of cardiovascular diseases. We hypothesized that HDAC inhibitor, sodium valproate (VPA), has cardiac and vascular protective effects in rats with pressure overload cardiac hypertrophy induced by transverse aortic constriction (TAC). Sections of the heart were visualized after hematoxylin and eosin staining, picrosirius red staining and immunohistochemistry. The expression of genes related to cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, and oxidative stress was determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. The aortic ring tension analysis was conducted using both the ascending aorta and descending thoracic aorta. TAC increased the expression of hypertrophic, fibrotic, and oxidative stress genes, which was attenuated by VPA. In the ascending aorta with intact endothelium, there was a significant decrease in the relaxation response, which was recovered by VPA treatment. These results indicate that VPA has cardiac and vascular protective effects in rats with pressure overload cardiac hypertrophy.
