Published: March 2019

Background

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the surgical treatment on Slovenian colorectal cancer patients’ health-related quality of life and to compare the results to the health-related quality of life of the general Slovenian population.

Patients and methods

A total of 413 patients with colorectal cancer operated on at the Abdominal Surgery Department at the Ljubljana University Medical Center between January 1st, 2016 and December 31st, 2017 were sent two standardized and validated questionnaires: the EORTC QLQ-C30 version 3 and EORTC QLQ-CR29. The questionnaires were returned by 197 patients.

Results

Compared to the general population, poorer physical (p < 0.001), role (p = 0.002), cognitive (p = 0.021), and social functioning (p < 0.001) with higher frequency of constipation (p < 0.001), diarrhea (p < 0.001), and financial difficulties (p < 0.001) were reported by the colorectal patients. Female patients reported lower cognitive (p = 0.034) and emotional (p = 0.008) functioning, as well as higher frequency of bloating (p = 0.049) and hair loss (p = 0.01). Compared to the younger group of patients, lower physical functioning (p < 0.001) and higher urinary frequency (p = 0.007), urinary incontinence (p = 0.007), buttock pain (p = 0.007), and anxiety regarding body weight (p = 0.031) were detected among the older group of colorectal patients.

Conclusions

The global health status of colorectal patients in Slovenia is comparable to that of the general Slovenian population, but there is a significantly lower level in some of the quality-of-life scales.

Published: March 2019

Polyextremophiles have increasingly been utilised to produce thermostable enzymes with better stability in multiple extreme conditions. This study reports the screening results of four new bacterial isolates (PLS A, PLS 75, PLS 76 and PLS 80), isolated from an under water hot springs, in producing thermo-halostable protease enzyme. Optimum cultivation conditions for the protease production were also studied. Screening of protease-producing isolates was conducted using Thermus solid medium enriched with 3% skim milk and 0.5% casein. The growth of the isolates showing protease activity was monitored by measuring the cell dry weight and protease activity during 24 h cultivation period. The activity was also measured at various cultivation conditions, i.e. temperature, pH and salt concentrations. Amongst the four isolates, only PLS A showed the ability to produce protease. The optimum cultivation conditions for protease production were observed at 65°C, pH 7 for 18 h incubation. The activity increased with the addition of 1% NaCl concentration (0.085 Unit/mL). The ability of PLS A isolate to produce thermo-halostable protease was encouraging as they could potentially be used in industries requiring the enzyme with multiple extremes.
PURIFICATION OF BIODIESEL USING RICE STRAW AND DIOSCOREA ALATA STARCH AS NATURAL ADSORBENTS
Authors: Yulidar Yulidar , Saiful Saiful , Maulana Ilham
Published: March 2019

Janeng starch (Dioscorea Alata) and rice straws are developed to be used as adsorbents in dry washing method to purify crude biodiesel. In this study, we evaluate the potential of rice straw and janeng starch as natural adsorbents in the purification of biodiesel that replace the role of water in absorbing contaminants from biodiesel. The SEM characterization results show that the starch adsorbent and rice straw has an open and porous surface and is evenly distributed for janeng starch. Both adsorbents, either the janeng starch or rice straw, can be applied for the purification of biodiesel. The quality of biodiesel is influenced by the amount of adsorbents used in biodiesel purification. The effectiveness of the adsorbent is shown by the decrease in free fatty acids, alkali numbers, soap numbers and turbidity levels in biodiesel. The concentration of free fatty acid oil in crude biodiesel before the purification step was 0.769 mg-KOH/g, then decreased to 0.128 mg-KOH/g after the adsorption. This acid value had been very low and met the Indonesian quality national standard for biodiesel spesically 0.50 mg-KOH/g. Either janeng starch or rice straw adsorbent was able to reduce the soap content of potassium oleate to level 53.33 ppm from the initial content of 106.67 ppm. These two natural adsorbents can be the alternative adsorbents in the purification of biodiesel that employs dry washing method.
Los llamados “lugares sagrados”: territorialidad, identidad y alteridad entre los tepehuanos del sur
Authors: Reyes Valdez Jorge Antonio
Published: March 2019

Un tema común de unión entre los tepehuanos del sur de Durango (o’dam/audam), y de discusión entre éstos y diversas instancias del Estado mexicano, es el territorio y el control político del mismo. Adicionalmente, en años recientes la identificación y protección de los llamados “lugares sagrados” en las comunidades indígenas de México ha vuelto más compleja dicha relación al colocarse en el centro de la agenda de debate sobre el territorio. El presente artículo tiene como objetivo explicar cómo pueden entenderse desde la perspectiva del pueblo tepehuano del sur los llamados “lugares sagrados”. Su comprensión se encuentra a su vez anclada en su construcción sociocultural del territorio, el cual tiene, como principales atributos, el ser “ancestral”, “transformativo” y concebido desde distintos niveles de organización social. Consecuentemente, es posible hablar de distintas territorialidades tepehuanas, las cuales constituyen a su vez un elemento fundamental en los procesos de identidad/alteridad de este pueblo.

Published: March 2019

Objetivo: Contextualizar a atuação do enfermeiro na gestão de cuidados, suas capacidades técnicas e científicas frente à assistência de enfermagem nas reações transfusionais, de acordo com a literatura científica. Métodos: O presente estudo constitui-se de uma revisão da literatura, realizando-se consulta a livros e artigos científicos selecionados através de busca no banco de dados do Scielo e da Bireme, a partir das fontes Medline e Lilacs. Após a análise criteriosa, foram incluídos 6 (seis) artigos e utilizados os descritores: enfermagem; hemoterapia; reação transfusional. Resultados: A análise dos artigos selecionados revelou a deficiência nos conhecimentos relacionados à terapia transfusional, portanto, há necessidade de capacitação desde a graduação e da absorção de novos conhecimentos pelos diversos veículos educacionais. Numa perspectiva da camada metacontextual, reforça-se o desenvolvimento da hemoterapia. Portanto, é consensual, tanto da parte da enfermagem quanto dos usuários, que a saúde é um bem coletivo e, por isso, tem suas responsabilidades de ação preventiva e de inserção coletiva na melhoria do bem-estar de todos. Considerações Finais: Por serem os enfermeiros profissionais direta e constantemente envolvidos na gestão de cuidados, é fundamental que lhes sejam garantidas formação e educação adequada, bem como atualizações e reciclagem regulares.
First Principles Micro-kinetic Model of Catalytic Non-oxidative Dehydrogenation of Ethane over Close-packed Metallic Facets
Authors: Hansen Martin Hangaard , Nørskov Jens K. , Bligaard Thomas
Published: March 2019

Catalytic dehydrogenation of light alkanes may other more efficient routes to selectively producing light olefins, which are some of the most important chemical building blocks in the industry, in terms of scale. We present a descriptor based micro-kinetic model of the trends in selectivity and activity of non-oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane over close-packed metal facets and through varied reaction conditions. Our model predicts and explains the experimentally observed promotion effect on turnover rate from co-feeding hydrogen as an effect of the shifting equilibria in steady state. At low conversion reaction conditions over Pt, the path to ethene goes through ethane dehydrogenation to ethyl, CH 3 CH 2 *, then to ethene while the non-selective pathway to methane and deeply dehydrogenated species is predicted to go through dehydrogenation via CH 3 CH*. This implies that the desorption step of ethene is not the limiting step for selectivity and that geometric effects that stabilize CH 2 CH 2 * compared to CH 3 CH* are desirable properties of a better catalyst. Removing reactive bridge and 3-fold sites facilitates this, which may be achievable by sufficient concentrations of tin in platinum. The included model code furthermore provides a base for easy tuning and for expanding the study to other thermodynamic conditions, other facets, alloys or the reaction network to longer hydrocarbons or to oxidative pathways.
Do discurso à semiótica social
Authors: Tomazi Micheline Mattedi , Cavalcanti Camilla Reisler
Published: March 2019

O objetivo deste artigo é demonstrar quais os principais modos pelos quais os atores sociais são representados em um anúncio publicitário, visando à construção de um discurso polarizado e de uma ideologia humanizadora, a fim de atingir seu público-alvo. O aporte teórico utilizado encontra respaldo na semiótica social proposta por Kress e van Leeuwen (2001, 2006), Kress (2010), van Leeuwen (2008) e Machin (2012). O objeto de análise é um vídeo produzido pela campanha Dermablend 2014, intitulada “Camo confessions”(Confissões de Camuflagem). Os resultados demonstram que o uso de recursos semióticos é crucial na construção e distribuição de conhecimento, relacionando intimamente aspectos discursivos, linguísticos e ideológicos. Um foco maior para essa relação torna-se necessário, já que esses recursos semióticos fazem parte de uma cadeia retroalimentadora de outros discursos publicitários atuais.

Published: March 2019

Este trabajo reflexiona sobre las historias de vida como modo de recolección de datos en investigaciones sociales orientadas a contribuir al conocimiento de los mecanismos discursivos que sostienen la dominación y la exclusión. Nos ocuparemos de la desigualdad comunicativa, que es inherente a todo proceso comunicacional y, en consecuencia, se manifiesta en la recolección de historias de vida. El objetivo específico es dar cuenta de las complejidades que surgen a partir de las diferencias comunicativas en la toma de historias de vida y ofrecer sugerencias y estrategias concretas, sobre la base de nuestras investigaciones y desde conceptos lingüísticos, a fin de facilitar la relación comunicativa. Una conclusión importante es que la desigualdad comunicativa, especialmente inherente a la figura del investigador, no sólo no puede ser olvidada, sino que debe ser incorporada a las investigaciones del modo más productivo posible.

Authors: Elbashti Mahmoud E
Published: March 2019

Rendering three-dimensional (3D) structures of maxillofacial prosthetics within a single two-dimensional (2D) document offers great opportunities for the readers of scientific publications to interactively visualize these structures with in-depth 3D perception. The capabilities of Portable document format (PDF) have not yet been fully utilized in maxillofacial prosthetics publications especially when considering that PDF is the most common file format for publishing articles. This article briefly reviews the application of PDF in the visualization of 3D data within scientific publications. It also introduces an effective interactive visualization approach by embedding 3D data into PDF file for journal publications and discuss its impact on maxillofacial prosthetic publications. It emphasizes on the usage of this electronic document, when used to its full potential, could be used to illustrate embedded 3D interactive maxillofacial prosthetic data, which can be viewed and manipulated by the reader without the need for specific 3D viewing softwares. Thus, this article compiles the capabilities of PDF which is beyond just an electronic documentation exchange and viewing static 2D structures in scientific publications.

Intimate partner violence in the Americas: a systematic review and reanalysis of national prevalence estimates
Authors: Bott Sarah , Guedes Alessandra , Ruiz-Celis Ana P. , Mendoza Jennifer Adams
Published: March 2019

Objectives.To describe what is known about the national prevalence of intimate partner violence (IPV) against women in the Americas across countries and over time, including the geographic coverage, quality, and comparability of national data.

Methods.This was a systematic review and reanalysis of national, population-based IPV estimates from 1998 – 2017 in the Americas. Estimates were reanalyzed for comparability or extracted from reports, including IPV prevalence by type (physical; sexual; physical and/or sexual), timeframe (ever; past year), and perpetrator (any partner in life; current/most recent partner). In countries with 3+ rounds of data, Cochran-Armitage and Pearson chi-square tests were used to assess whether changes over time were significant (P< 0.05).

Results.Eligible surveys were found in 24 countries. Women reported ever having experienced physical and/or sexual IPV at rates that ranged from 14% – 17% of women in Brazil, Panama, and Uruguay to over one-half (58.5%) in Bolivia. Past-year prevalence of physical and/or sexual IPV ranged from 1.1% in Canada to 27.1% in Bolivia. Preliminary evidence suggests a possible decline in reported prevalence of certain types of IPV in eight countries; however, some changes were small, some indicators did not change significantly, and a significant increase was found in the reported prevalence of past-year physical IPV in the Dominican Republic.

Conclusions.IPV against women remains a public health and human rights problem across the Americas; however, the evidence base has gaps, suggesting a need for more comparable, high quality evidence for mobilizing and monitoring violence prevention and response.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease that has a high prevalence in Asia, including Indonesia. One of the complications of DM is Peripheral Artery Disease (PAP). Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) measurement is a simple and non-invasive methods that can be used for PAP evaluation. This study aims to provide an overview of the clinical manifestations of PAP and the value of ABI as early detection of PAP in patients with type-2 DM. This research uses quantitative descriptive design studies. The research variables used to assess PAP were ABI values, age, sex, duration of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and clinical manifestations of PAP such as pain, intermittent claudication, muscle atrophy, skin discoloration, sweating, wound healing impairment, and gangrene. This study involved 92 research subjects. From the study we found out that the normal ABI value and the ABI value of the PAP category in patients with type 2 diabetes were 91.3% and 7.6%. The ABI value of the PAP category in DM patients is more commonly found in women (6.5%), adult patients (5.4%), duration of DM up to 2 years (5.4%), and with hypertension (5.4%) . Pain and numbness are the most common clinical manifestations of PAP in DM patients.

A case study of translator’s preface in Yok Edici
Authors: Aktener Ilgın
Published: March 2019

Translation and publication of foreign literature

have at times resulted in obscenity court cases (e.g. the Aphrodite [1940] and Tropic

of Cancer [1988] cases) against Turkish translators and publishers since

the first decades of the Turkish Republic. 

The recent obscenity court cases against the Turkish translators and

publishers of William S. Burroughs’ The

Soft Machine and Chuck Palahniuk’s Snuff

(2011) were interpreted as instances of censorship. Taking this as a starting

point, this article conducts a case study of Ahmet Ergenç’s translator’s

preface for Exterminator!, a book by

Burroughs which contains obscenity and was published in Turkey after the

aforementioned court cases. The aims of this case study is to investigate the

purpose of and reasons behind Ergenç’s preface and to determine whether

Ergenç’s preface was influenced by the court cases and the censorial conditions

under which Turkish translators work. To do so, Ergenç’s preface is studied in

the light of Genette’s (1997) understanding of allographic and authorial

prefaces and an interview is conducted with Ergenç. As a result, it is

discussed that Ergenç aimed at informing readers unfamiliar with Burroughs

about his style, which consists of fragmented narrative and obscene words, to

prevent misinterpretations of them as translation mistakes on the part of the

reader. As to the question of the influence of censorship on Ergenç’s preface,

results of the analysis of the preface and the interview are conflicting. The article

concludes that Ergenç denies any authorial responsibility for fragmentation and

obscenity in Exterminator! and uses

his preface to embrace invisibility as a translator while also gaining

visibility at the same time through it.

У статті розглянуто існуючі підходи до визначення сутності екологічної безпеки. Набули подальшого розвитку підходи до змістовного наповнення екологічної безпеки підприємства як стану захищеності від негативних впливів внутрішнього та зовнішнього середовища та здатності швидко усунути загрози, забезпечити своє функціонування на основі екологічно орієнтованих техніко-технологічних та управлінських інновацій, що унеможливлюють нанесення шкоди навколишньому природному середовищу, життю та здоров’ю людей. Отже екологічну безпеку підприємства доцільно розглядати з двох позицій: як захищеність довкілля, людей від негативного впливу діяльності підприємства та захищеність підприємства від екологічних загроз.

The Effects of Mindfulness on Self-Rumination, Self-Reflection, and Depressive Symptoms: A Research Proposal
Authors: Yu Mabel
Published: March 2019

The investigation of mindfulness has increased significantly over the past decade regarding its efficacy as a clinical tool, particularly in the treatment of depression. Mindfulness is often conceptualized as a mental state characterized by present-moment, non-judgmental attention and awareness. Past researchers have suggested that mindfulness is linked to reduction of self-rumination (i.e. maladaptive self-focused attention to one’s self-worth) through promotion of concrete focus and inhibition of automatic elaboration of intrusive thoughts. Moreover, mindfulness also promotes low-level construal thinking (i.e. concrete thinking) which competes against high-level construal thinking (i.e. abstract thinking). Researchers have proposed that self-rumination involves high-level construal of the self and others, which could increase the likelihood of experiencing negative moods. On the other hand, mindfulness may potentially promote self-reflection (i.e. adaptive self-focused attention to the self) while inhibiting self-rumination. The purpose of this paper is to propose a research idea that will explore the relationship between mindfulness, self-rumination, self-reflection, and depressive symptoms (i.e., low mood, anhedonia or ability to feel pleasure, and changes in sleep). The findings of the proposed research may have significant implications for treatment of depressive symptoms and for promotion of positive outcomes such as mitigation of self-rumination and enhancement of self-reflective processes through potential effects of mindfulness.
‘Blood, it’s in you to be Governed'
Authors: Christison Alex
Published: March 2019

The author of this paper investigates how blood has been constructed as a gendered and heteronormative cultural product, explored through the use of critical analysis of historical and contemporary uses of blood. Heteronormativity and the fallacy of discrete sexes are then defined and explored to give context to the argument. It is found that through gendering under the two-sex model of opposing male and female sexes, blood is heteronormative. A case study of Canadian Blood Services was used to show how governance is enacted based upon the limitation of a heteronormative construction. This argument is bolstered in a theoretical discussion of the nation-state and the creation of the archetypical citizen, part of which is a compulsory heterosexuality.
“Each has a house of her own”: Purpose, Domesticity and Agency of First Nations Women in Canada’s Industrial School System, 1883-1923.
Authors: Nason Sarah
Published: March 2019

This paper uses the lenses of gender and colonialism to examine the goals and actual outcomes of industrial schools, as well as the experiences of female students in a particular era—the 1880s to the turn of the century. The industrial school system was originally implemented in western Canada to train First Nations males in various trades such as farming, and to assimilate these students into the dominant Euro-Canadian society, but administrators changed their mind and decided to educate female students as well.  Specifically, the first three industrial schools created which laid the foundation for the system in the west (including British Columbia) will be the focus.  These schools are High River Industrial School in what is now Alberta, and the Qu’Appelle Industrial School and the Battleford Industrial School in Saskatchewan.  Two leading questions have shaped this study. First, this work interrogates the various churches’ and government’s goals for female students in the industrial schools of western Canada.  This study argues that the Canadian federal government’s and various churches’ goals for the female students were twofold.  Initially the purpose of education for the female student was to create “proper” wives for the male students who would stand in place of the “non-educated” and “unassimilated” First Nations females who would otherwise, according to officials of the institutions, pull male graduates back into a life of “savagery.” However, as time progressed, the methods of educating female students changed.  Female students, with support from the government and the churches, took on the role of domestic servants both inside and out of the school as part of the “outing system.” However, administrators intended such positions to be temporary as the primary goal remained that female graduates would marry and conform to gender ideals at the time. Second, the paper examines the “success” of the schools based on their projected outcomes and argues that the system was ineffective. Female students prevented the federal government and various churches from achieving their goals of making “proper” housewives through the industrial school system.   Many women kept their traditions after graduation by returning to their families and nations, and through activities such as leaving graduate colonies to attend traditional activities such as the Sun Dance.  Still others did not conform to Victorian ideals of womanhood when they became “breadwinners” through their work in domestic service. This study concludes that while government and church administrators believed that the schools would teach female Aboriginal students how to conform to ideals of white, Victorian womanhood and would help advance the cause of “civilizing” male students, in the end, female students found employment outside of the home, the opposite of what administrators envisioned.
Boundaries of Person, Boundaries of Place: Wilderness, "Indians" and the Mapping of Canada's Northwest Interior, 1857
Authors: Trimble Sabina
Published: March 2019

This essay identifies the creative and often divergent constructions of place and race in one document, the proceedings from a Parliamentary Select Committee in 1857, which empowered officials three thousand miles across the Atlantic to make varying claims to a vast and diverse expanse of Aboriginal lands and peoples in Canada. I apply theory from existing scholarship about the “mutually imbricated” nature of place and race in the making settler-colonial worlds to find how six hundred pages of testimony from white men with only marginal experiences on the land itself legitimized the dispossession and marginalization the original inhabitants of those territories.[1] I focus mostly on the lands between the Great Lakes and the Rocky Mountains, the bulk of which were fashioned in distant, imperial imaginations as “wilderness,” unfit for or in need of settler “civilization.” In conjunction with wilderness discourses, speakers defined the Indianness of the northwest interior. Mostly Plains peoples, the indigenous groups discussed in this document were universally painted as one with their environment: wild and uncivilized. They were, according to the commission, incapable of governing themselves responsibly, and were, worst of all, the sure victims of the “onslaught of colonization,” should they not become in some way transformed.The document provides some fascinating divergences in the mindsets of different colonial powers: the HBC, British settlers in Canada, and humanitarians. These divergences reflect how, as Bronwen Douglas suggests, “within colonial regimes and contexts […] the efflorescence of racially charged utterances and practices betrays an astonishing variety, fluidity and internal contradiction.”[2]During the sessions of testimony and debate for this enquiry, constructions of land and Indianness in the northwest interior came together to justify variant and often contradictory solutions to the “problems” colonizers identified in the “unsettled” territory. All discourses that produced, and produced by, colonialism could be harnessed to dispossess Aboriginal peoples; the means and justifications for doing so in this document varied.[3][1] Tracey Banivanua-Mar and Penelope Edmonds, eds., Making Settler Colonial Space: Perspectives on Race, Place and Identity (New York: Palgrave MacMillan, 2010), 3.[2] Douglas, “Race,” 245.[3] Cole Harris, Making Native Space: Colonialism, Resistance, and Reserves in British Columbia (Vancouver: UBC Press, 2002), 48.

The 19th Century Parisian: Social Hierarchy and Female Sexuality Through the Lens of Impressionist Art and Naturalist Literature
Authors: Dimler Jenna Christiane
Published: March 2019

Throughout the 19th century, the formation of modern, industrial Paris resulted in a dramatic rise in prostitution. An intense period of urbanization resulting from an ever increasing fixation with commodification and industrialization, in addition to the relentless objectification and sexualization of women at the hands of the patriarchy, acted as a catalyst for the commodification of women (partiuclarly those associated with the working class) - a phenomenon that was to capture the attention of numerous 19th century artists and writers.
UJI EFEKTIVITAS BIO-ORGANIC FERTILIZER (PUPUK ORGANIK HAYATI) DALAM MENSUBSTITUSI KEBUTUHAN PUPUK ANORGANIK PADA TANAMAN SWEET SORGHUM [SORGHUM BICOLOR (L.) MOENCH]

The aim of research was to examine the effectiveness of bio-organic fertilizer to substitute inorganic fertilizer necessity on sweet sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] vegetative growth. This research was carried out in the University Farm green house Cikabayan and in the Leuwikopo Experiment Field, Institut Pertanian Bogor. The green house experiment used completely randomized design with six treatments, namely: 1. No fertilizer (control), 2. 100%NPK, 3. 50%N + DOP, 4. 50%NPK + Fertismart, 5. 50%NPK + Ponti, dan 6. 50%NPK + Biost. The field experiment used completely randomizes block design with seven treatments, namely: 1. No fertilizer (control), 2. 50%NPK, 3. 100%NPK, 4. 50%N + DOP, 5. 50%NPK + Fertismart, 6. 50%NPK + Ponti, and 7. 50%NPK + Biost. Materials which was used were super sugar variety, NPK fertilizers, bio-organic fertilizer Fertismart, Ponti, Biost, and organic fertilizer Double Organic Phosphate (DOP).
The results of greeen house research showed that bio-organic fertilizer could increase crop height, number of leaves, wet weight upper crop, dry weight upper crop, wet weight root, and dry weight root of sweet sorghum than control and same with treatment of 100%NPK. Treatment of 50%NPK + Biost could increase crop height (47.8%) than control and same with treatment of 100%NPK. Treatment of 50%NPK + Ponti increase dry weight root (59%) than control and same with treatment of 100%NPK.
The results of field research showed that bio-organic fertilizer Fertismart could increase wet weight upper crop, crop height (42.8%) and number of leaves (39.5%) than control, and same with 100%NPK. It means that bio-organic fertilizer could substitute about 50% inorganic necessity on sweet sorghum.
Keywords: bio-organic fertilizer, Azotobacter, Azospirillum, phosphate solubilizing microbes.

Contamination of contaminants in river are more due to human activities (antropogenic), such as the disposal of industrial waste and domestic waste. One type of inorganic pollutants that is toxic to living organism including human is cadmium (Cd). The movement of Cd in river water into the soil along the river is naturally and by human activity. The objectives of this study was to examine the distribution of Cd in soil on the river banks of the Cikarang Bekasi Laut (CBL) river, in Bekasi West Java, based on the distance from the pollutant sources during rainy and dry season (spatially and temporally). This study used a survey method in sampling plants, water and soil. Sampling was conducted at 10 sites and 10 observation times (dry and rainy season). The analyses of Cd content were conducted on plant, water and soil samples. In addition, pH was also measured in soil and water samples. Vegetable samples were collected from the field were kale, spinach and caisin. Statistical analyses comparized of analyses of variance (F test), comparatine analyses of the mean and correlation analyses. The results showed that the contents of Cd in the soil samples that close to the surface of the river water were higher than those of other soil samples. This was caused by the movement of Cd from the river water naturally due to changes in water level or river discharge fluctuation, as a consequence of changes in dry and rainy seasons. At sites further from the river (on land of cultivation), the presence of Cd in soil was mainly due to the use of river water for irrigation. Watering plant was mostly done during the dry season, at which the concentration of Cd in river water was relatively higher. The content of Cd in plant tissue (Spinach, kale and caisin) had a positive correlation with the content of Cd in the soil. The average content of Cd from the three plants were spinach > kale > caisin, consecutively. Keywords: antropogenic, cadmium (Cd), Cd uptake, pollution, riverbanks

Published: March 2019

An exploratory, descriptive, correlational and explanatory field and documentary study was conducted in UTM leveling students aged 15 to 19 years with anemia at which was determined the level of family dysfunction by means of a test that measures the adaptation, participation, gain, affection and resources (APGAR), an instrument that shows how family members perceive the level of functioning of the family unit in a global way , this is called APGAR family, with the purpose of assessing family dysfunction in leveling students from 15 to 19 years who have anemia as a result of titling work, the determination of crises and the existence of levels of knowledge that would allow the adoption of an adequate management of situations generated by this. We investigated the population of leveling students who present anemia through the clinical history of the late adolescent or adult, which coincide with levels of hemoglobin lower than the normal standards according to sex and age and a family APGAR test to assess the systemic functionality of the family.
