Authors: Wongpreedee Thapanee , Mougin Karine , Amornsakchai Taweechai
Published: October 2019

Pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) having an average diameter and length of about 4 μm and 6 mm, respectively, was used as reinforcing element for natural rubber (NR) composites. PALF was coated with different amount of stearic acid at 10, 30 and 50 wt% of PALF. PALF-NR composites containing two levels of PALF at 5 and 10 part per hundred rubber (phr) were prepared in a two roll mill. Mastication times of 2, 4 and 8 min were used. Tensile stress-strain curves and fracture surfaces of both untreated PALF and stearic acid coated PALF (SA-PALF) reinforced NR prepared with different mastication times were compared. At low level of PALF where aggregation was not a problem, stearic coating had adverse effect on mechanical properties due to the slippery PALF-rubber interface. At high level of PALF, the coating gave composites with higher tensile strength and strain at break. Moreover, tensile strength and strain at break increased with increasing mastication time. This indicates that stearic acid coating reduces the formation of PALF aggregations and allows PALF to work effectively.
Production and Characterization of Bacterial Cellulose from Rice Washing Drainage (RWD) by Komagataeibacter nataicola Li1
Authors: Sudying Pipat , Laingaumnuay Nuchanat , Jaturapiree Phimchanok
Published: October 2019

Bacterial cellulose (BC), produced by some bacteria has received attention because its high purity and robust characteristics enable its use in medicine and industry. This study aimed to screen bacteria capable of producing BC from fruits, and to optimize the BC production in both traditional YE yeast fermentation and Schramm and Hestrin (SH) media. The rice washing drainage without any pretreatment as the sole carbon source in the yeast medium was also investigated for BC production in both static and agitated cultures. The bacterial strain Li1 isolated from apple (Malus pumila) was identified as Komagataeibacter (Gluconacetobacter) nataicola based on 16S rDNA sequence analysis. K. nataicola Li1 cultured in a YE medium produced significantly more BC than that in a SH medium in the static culture. Moreover, the weight yields of dry BC films obtained from rice washing drainage and YE media in the static cultures were not significantly different. However, in the agitated culture, the weight yields of dry BC films were more significant in the YE medium than in rice washing drainage medium. In addition, the structure and properties of BC were determined using SEM, FTIR, DSC and XRD. This study shows that rice washing drainage can be used as the carbon source for BC production by K. nataicola Li1.

Authors: Wilairat Thanaporn , Saechin Nattawut , Buggakupta Wantanee , Sujaridworakun Pornapa
Published: October 2019

Hot molding is one of the most important processes for the manufacture of friction materials in automotive brake systems. That is because it has direct impacts on the physical and mechanical properties. Porosity and compressibility affect properties like brake vibration. This then affects brake noise. Therefore, the objective of this work was to study the effects of hot molding conditions on the porosity and compressibility of friction materials. The crucial parameters; molding pressure, temperature and holding time were varied in the hot molding process. Porosity and compressibility were investigated and analyzed in relation to the manufacturing parameters using statistical analysis. The results and the correlation coefficients (R2) show that molding pressure and holding time are the most significant effects on porosity and compressibility. They indicate that the hot molding parameters can adequately explain porosity and compressibility.

Published: October 2019

This study investigates the effects of mixing condition on hardness, porosity, specific gravity, wear, and friction characteristics of automotive brake materials. In the experiment, mixing raw materials with three different conditions of impeller speed (3000, 4500, and 6000 rpm), mixing duration (up to 8 min) and mixture loading based on a mixer volume (35, 50 and 65 vol% ) were determined using the formulated mixture composition. Homogeneity in terms of density values including hardness, porosity, and specific gravity of the finished brake pads were determined. The surfaces and the distribution of friction material were studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The correlation between various mixing conditions and physical and tribological properties of brake pads were discussed and reported.

TAVOLA PERIODICA SOTTO PRESSIONE: UNA PERIODICITA' DIVERSA ED UNA CHIMICA ESOTICA
Authors: Gatti Carlo Edoardo
Published: October 2019

Our general and operative notion of chemistry, that enabling us to describe and interpret the structural, bonding and reactivity properties of the various compounds, is essentially rooted in the periodicity of properties of their constituting elements. Periodicity drove the path towards the proposition of the periodic table of elements and its rationalization thanks to the gradually acquired knowledge on the atomic electronic structure. Atomic radii periodicity mirrors the periodicity of the electronic configurations of the atomsâ€™ outermost shell. The changes in atomic radii differentiate the chemical properties, hence the structures and properties of the elemental solids and of their compounds. Yet, under an external pressure, such a fully rationalized scenario may drastically change. When an atom is compressed, its average electron density increases and its outermost electronic shell is the easiest one to compress. At 100 Giga Pascal (GPa), that is at 106 atmospheres, the change of the atomic radius along a period of the Periodic Table becomes much less evident and at 1000 GPa our classical notion of periodicity is completely lost. Under pressure, the energy due to the compression work made on a system adds up to its internal energy. With such an energy gain the system may reach regions of the potential energy surface which would not be otherwise accessible. The chemical bond nature may change, even radically, and new structures and bonding patterns, characterized by totally unexpected properties, become energetically stable and possible. For instance, sodium, which is a silvery-white, highly reactive metal, becomes a fully transparent insulator, while boron is turned into a partially ionic solid elemental phase because charge transfer takes place between differently clustered groups of boron atoms. The incredible chemical inertness of helium finally falls as it forms a stable compound with sodium, Na2He. Under a suitable pressure, compounds with unusual stoichiometry (Na3Cl2, Na2Cl, Na3Cl, NaCl3, NaCl7) may be observed, despite their formula would be immediately rejected if proposed by a student at any high-school or university exam, or new carbon allotropes may appear or the aromatic character of benzene may vanish. This new chemistry is usually predicted through ab-initio quantum mechanical methods and interpreted and rationalized with the most modern chemical bonding approaches. However, compounds anticipated in silico have then be reproduced experimentally in many cases, by using diamond anvil cells to synthesize them and a variety of in situ instrumental techniques to characterize them properly.

Cumulative effects of resource development on mining-impacted watersheds
Authors: Desbarats A
Published: October 2019

Renewed exploration or development in historical mining districts, such as Cobalt, presents unique challenges for proponents and government regulators because of the cumulative nature of environmental impacts. To increase their capacity to carry out or review
environmental assessments, this project will develop geoscience methods for distinguishing environmental effects of new mining activity from complex existing background conditions in affected watersheds. Specifically, the project will develop means of unraveling the history of accumulated
polymetallic contamination from multiple sources over multiple periods. This information and new data from mine wastes and mine drainage will be synthesized in the first geoenvironmentalmodel for Ag-Ni-Co-As vein type deposits. Project results will be disseminated to key end users in order to
improve their capacity to carry out or review environmental assessments and to ensure that decision makers have a better understanding of the cumulative nature of environmental impacts for the sustainable development of natural resources.
Environmental impact of diluted bitumen
Authors: Ahad J M E
Published: October 2019

To transport bitumen via pipeline, it is blended with lighter hydrocarbon fractions, yielding a less viscous, diluted bitumen ('dilbit').
Although often considered safer than other means of transport (i.e., railways, barges), incidents such as the one that occurred near the Kalamazoo River (Michigan, USA) in June 2010 have highlighted the potential environment risk caused by dilbit pipeline rupture.
There are few detailed investigations into the fate and transport of dilbit in the vadose zone and groundwater -a knowledge gap identified over five years ago...
Assessing groundwater vulnerability to shale gas activities in the Sussex area, southern New Brunswick
Authors: Rivard C
Published: October 2019

A project studying potential hydrocarbon migration through natural pathways or fracking-induced fractures from deep (~2 km) Carboniferous shale or tight sand units to shallow aquifers was initiated in 2015 in the Sussex area, southern New Brunswick. The
study area includes the McCully gas field that has been in production since 2001 and the Elgin field that is investigated for its condensate potential. Because the intermediate zone (IZ) located between shallow aquifers and units targeted for hydrocarbon production is poorly characterized, this
project relies on the integration of data from different earth science disciplines, including geology, geophysics, geomechanics, hydrogeology and water and rock geochemistry. Fieldwork in 2018-2019 included the drilling of two observation wells, borehole geophysics, and groundwater monitoring.
Data collected during this 4-year project and their interpretation provided no evidence for the presence of large-scale connections between gas reservoirs and shallow aquifers in this study area. On the contrary, the IZ seems to provide an efficient barrier protecting the shallow aquifer from the
potential upward migration of fluids originating from deep hydrocarbon reservoirs. This conclusion integrates the interpretations derived from the geomechanical study, from the geophysical and geological analyses of the structural context and from the geochemical baseline study. Although large-scale
upward fluid migration is considered very unlikely, evidence of some upward migration over a few hundred meters was found based on old, evolved groundwater observed in two of the shallow (50 m) observation wells. This water indicated a contribution from evaporites from a relatively shallow salt
structure (~250-300 m), whose chemical components are assumed to have been transferred to the active groundwater flow zone by diffusion. Also, regular monitoring of several shallow wells helped ascertain the source of methane in groundwater when individual samples provided ambiguous
results.
SOURCES: developing indicators and understanding environmental impacts in the oils sands region
Authors: Savard M M
Published: October 2019

All research activities of SOURCES relate to developing new methodologies to allow distinguishing contaminants that are naturally released to water and terrestrial ecosystems from those produced by oil sands (OS) extraction activities. Main objectives: (1)
assessing how new indicators and approaches for waterborne and airborne contaminants can help identify OS extraction-related changes to the natural regimes; and (2) understanding processes controlling the distribution of contaminants in the broad region of the OS open-mining developments.
Waterborne Contamination
The current research is a direct follow up of NRCan previous test study (OF 7195) as there is a need to specifically continue characterizing the various natural sources of contaminants (numerous lithostratigraphic units and groundwater systems); better constrain the anthropogenic signals of the
contaminants, and identify, quantify and model the flux of OS-related chemicals into the groundwater near open-mining OS extraction activities, at the regional scale.
Metals - This activity explores lithium (delta-7Li) isotopes of groundwater as an indicator to strengthen the discrimination between natural and OS-derived contaminants, and the chemistry and reactive transport of metals to understand their distribution and fate.
AEOs - This study specifically evaluates the potential of hydrogen (delta-2H), and stable (delta-13C) and radioactive (delta-14C) carbon isotopes for characterizing Acid Extractible Organics (AEOs), and investigates the biogeochemical processes controlling their distribution in groundwater.
Airborne Contamination
Forest N Cycle - This research involves characterizing airborne nitrogen (N) contaminants in air wet and dry samples from outside the OS region using new isotopic methods (on-line simultaneous delta-15N, delta-18O and delta-17O values); to distinguish their ranges from OS air results. It further
investigates the possible impacts of these airborne N contaminants on processes controlling the long-term tree-ring delta-15N trends, by determining delta-15N values in the complete suite of the soil-fungi-root-stem-leave continuum. This research also addresses the question as to how the nutritive
regimes of pine and spruce stands and the forest N cycle are modified by OS operations (coll. with ECCC, CFS-Q, CFS-Ed).
PAHs -The key issue here is quantifying natural polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) related to forest fires and bitumen-containing rocks from anthropogenic sources. Naturally present in bitumen, PAHs are also released into the environment through the incomplete combustion of organic matter,
whether from modern biomass or fossil fuels, and via diagenetic processes. The current activities focus on applying compound specific delta-13C, delta-2H and radiocarbon analysis (14C) to sediment cores and snow of lakes in the OS region in which PAHs from forest fires can perhaps be distinguished
from those that are OS mining-related and hence contain no detectable 14C.
Measuring, monitoring and verification of geological carbon storage
Authors: White D
Published: October 2019

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has been identified as a priority issue within the context of the North American Climate Change and Energy Collaboration and Mission Innovation. An important aspect of CCS is the need to improve public confidence in long-term
geological storage of CO2. A key to developing confidence for the longer term is a demonstration of safe and expected storage behaviourin the short term. Two primary concerns of the public and government regulatory bodies are the potential for induced seismicity and for CO2leakage. To alleviate
these concerns, storage monitoring is critical in demonstrating that the subsurface CO2plume is behaving as expected, and that induced microseismicor seismic activity is being closely monitored. The AquistoreCO2Storage Project is a multi-year research and monitoring project to demonstrate that
storing CO2deep underground is a safe and workable solution to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere. The Geological Survey of Canada's studies within the project are focused on the development of improved monitoring methodologies and a better understanding of the relationship
between CO2 injection and induced seismicity.
A total of ~200 ktonnesof CO2 were injected at the Aquistoresite from April-2015 to May-2019. Injection is occurring within a saline formation at a depth of 3150-3350 m. Passive seismic monitoring at the site which began in 2012 has not identified any seismicity associated with the injection
process. The first time-lapse 3D seismic surveys were conducted in February and November of 2016 when the cumulative injected quantity of CO2 was 36 ktonnesand 102 ktonnes, respectively. The latest 3D survey occurred in March-2018 with 141 ktonnesinjected. The resultant time-lapse seismic images
show how the CO2 plume is partitioned vertically within the reservoir and how it is spreading laterally. The seismic observations indicate that the initial geological model used for CO2 flow simulations will have to be modified.

Published: October 2019

Background: Daucus carota L. belongs to the family Apiaceae and it is commonly known as carrot. The aerial part is used in some Northern parts of Nigeria as a livestock feed without scientific evidence of its safety to animal and man.Aim: The study assessed the safety margins of the D. carota aerial parts.Setting: The aerial part of D. carota were sourced from cultivated farmland at the outskirts of Samaru, Sabon Gari Local Government Area of Kaduna State and authenticated at Herbarium Unit of the Department of Botany, Ahmadu Bello University Zaria, Nigeria. The aerial parts were air-dried under shade, pulverised and stored properly for analysis.Methods: According to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) method, the acute and sub-acute toxicity studies were carried on the crude extracts of the aerial parts to evaluate the safety of the healthy Wistar rats.Results: The findings from the oral acute toxicity study showed that there was no sign of toxicity and mortality at 5000 mg/kg in the n-hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol extracts. The sub-acute toxicity graded doses of 500 mg/kg, 1000 mg/kg and 1500 mg/kg of these extracts revealed a significant difference (p ≤ 0.05) on body weight, haematological parameters, liver and kidney function parameters. The histopathological effects of the extracts revealed different morphological alterations in the liver and kidney when compared with the control group.Conclusion: The study concluded that the aerial parts of D. carota might not be safe for livestock and its consumption could be capable of causing liver, kidney, tissue injury and other related diseases to animal and man.

The quality of the phytoplankton community in the basins that composed a microphyte natural lagoon station gives an indication on its proper functioning. So, the algal flora of water from three (3) basins of the wastewater treatment station of the Regional Hospital Center of Daloa (Côte d’Ivoire) was inventoried, using water samples taken from each basin. The phytoplankton of the different samples were observed under an optical microscope. Similarly, the component of phytoplankton, the density and the planktonic index of each basin were determined. It’s appeared that the community of phytoplankton from the basins was estimated at 63 taxa grouped into 8 classes, 5 phyla. The Cyanobacteria and Chlorophyceae are more diversified. The planktonic index showed that the basins are under an eutrophic state due to a high density of Cyanobacteria, which are indicators of pollution during the study period. In addition, the results revealed a similarity between the basins about the phytoplankton flora inventoried. But, this similarity is more marked (76.1%) between the anaerobic basin (basin 1) and the maturation or aerobic basin (basin 3). This is contrary to the normal functioning of the wastewater treatment station.

La qualité du peuplement du phytoplancton au sein des bassins qui composent une station de type lagunage naturel à microphytes donne une indication sur son efficacité. Ainsi, la flore algale des eaux issues des trois (3) bassins de la station d’épuration des eaux usées du centre hospitalier régional de Daloa (Côte d’Ivoire), a été inventoriée grâce à des échantillons d’eau prélevés dans chaque bassin. Le phytoplancton des différents échantillons a été observé au microscope optique. De même, la composition du phytoplancton ainsi que la densité et l’indice planctonique de chacun des bassins ont été déterminés. Il ressort que la communauté phytoplanctonique des eaux issues des bassins est estimée à 63 taxons regroupés en 8 classes, 5 embranchements. Parmi ces 63 taxons, les Cyanophycées et les Chlorophycées sont plus diversifiées. L’indice planctonique a montré que les bassins sont dans un état eutrophe dû à une forte densité des Cyanobactéries au cours de la période d’étude. Par ailleurs, les résultats ont révélé une ressemblance entre la flore phytoplanctonique inventoriée dans chaque bassin, mais cette ressemblance est encore plus marquée entre le bassin anaérobie (bassin 1) et le bassin de maturation ou aérobie (bassin 3) avec un taux de 76,1 %. Ce qui est contraire au fonctionnement normal de la station.

The sensitivity of intense rainfall to aerosol particle loading – a
comparison of bin-resolved microphysics modelling with
observations of heavy precipitation from HyMeX IOP7a
Authors: Kagkara Christina , Wobrock Wolfram , Planche Céline , Flossmann Andrea
Published: October 2019

Abstract. Over the Cévennes-Vivarais region in southern France five hour intensive rainfall covering an area of 1000 km2 with more than 50 mm rain accumulation was observed during IOP7a of HyMeX. This study evaluates the performance of a bin resolved cloud model for simulating this heavy precipitation event. The simulation results were compared with observations of rain accumulation, radar reflectivity, temporal and spatial evolution of precipitation, 5 minutes rain rates and raindrop size distributions (DSD). The different scenarios for aerosol number concentrations range from 1000 to 2900 cm−3 and represent realistic conditions for this region. Model results reproduce the heavy precipitation event with respect to maximum rain intensity, surface area covered by intense rain and the duration, as well as the rain DSD. Differences occur in the short-term rain fall rates, as well as for the drop number concentration. The cloud condensation number concentration has a notable influence on the simulated rainfall, both on the surface amount and intensity but also on the DSD properties and should be taken into account in microphysics parameterizations.

Este artículo expone una experiencia docente de investigación-acción en el IES público bilingüe Luis García Berlanga, de Coslada, (Madrid), partiendo de la hipótesis de que la educación artística inspirada en el arte y filosofía oriental de raíces "zen", específicamente la pintura con tinta "sumi-e", puede contribuir a un mejor desarrollo de la conciencia física, emocional, y la autorregulación, resultando en una mejora de los recursos resilientes. Para ello, se realizaron diversas actividades con tinta y otros materiales bajo un enfoque mindful, con 198 estudiantes de 1º y 2º de ESO. Se redactaron diarios docentes y se utilizaron estrategias de investigación basada en la imagen (IBI): foto-documentación docente y de los propios estudiantes, así como de un fotógrafo profesional. Las imágenes fueron soporte de una posterior foto-provocación, que a su vez facilitó una auto-reflexión visual desde una perspectiva a / r / tográfica mediante obra plástica de la propia docente. Esta propuesta establece un paralelismo lógico entre el lenguaje de expresión y el lenguaje de investigación.

Hybrid Peacebuilding
Authors: Mushtaq Sehar ,   Center for Peace and Justice Education at Villanova University
Published: October 2019

Liberal peacebuilding, a dominant form of peacebuilding since the post-Cold War era, has involved multifaceted approaches, countless resources, multiple actors and significant efforts and yet, because of its standardized model and exclusion of local culture, resources and actors it has failed to achieve sustainable peace and development. Local peacebuilding practices, on the other hand, are mostly inclusive and culturally relevant but are not immune to power abuse, exclusion and inhumane practices. This essay explores the possibility of utilizing hybrid peacebuilding—collaboration of local and international actors and resources—to attain sustainable peace in conflict-ridden countries. It commences with a critique of liberal peacebuilding. It then analyzes the notion of hybridity and hybrid peacebuilding, and seeks to answer why hybrid peacebuilding seems to be an emancipatory alternative to liberal peacebuilding.

We explore the relationship between the characteristics of social capital, the speed of access to medical technologies and the role of gender in a private practice context. Our findings from a sample of 98 German private practitioners show that: (a) being a woman has an overall negative impact on thespeed of access to medical technologies; (b) private practitioners with strong social network ties obtain quicker access to medical technologies than do those with weak ties; (c) men relying on their weak ties perform better than women who do so. In contrast, we observe that women relying on strong ties outperform their male counterparts in terms ofspeed of access to medical technologies.

The Impact of Business Schools: Increasing the Range of Strategic Choices
Authors: Lejeune Christophe , Starkey Ken , Kalika Michel , Tempest Sue
Published: October 2019

The notion of impact is becoming important for international business schools, which are under increasing pressures related to their legitimacy. Although the term impact has gained in popularity, common approaches to business school impact rely either on academic publications or alumni’s salaries. To help uncover the potential for other approaches, we develop a conceptual framework as a basis for studying business school impact. The pluralism of approaches in terms of business school impact opens new spaces for original strategic choices, therefore limiting pressures for organizational isomorphism. Nevertheless, the notion of impact also has some limitations that need to be considered.

The aim of the study was to determine whether there are statistically significant differences in the situational efficiency parameters between domestic (ex YU) and foreign (out of ex YU) basketball players, the players of the Adriatic Basketball League (ABA League) in the 2018/19 season. The study analyzed 20 parameters of situational efficiency. Using Mann–Whitney U test, it was found that there are statistically significant differences among the basketball players in 7 of the 20 analyzed variables. Players foreigners statistically significantly more lose and win the ball, hit and miss the 2- pointshot and more often block the opponent's shot. Based on the differences, it was concluded that the players foreigners are, much more in contact with the ball than the domestic players. The general conclusion is that the basketball game in the ABA League for the 2018/19 season was focused on players foreigners, which could have a certain impact on the affirmation of players from the former Yugoslavia.

The aim of the research is to study the effects of model exercises in the fitness and conditioning training of athletes on the motor abilities (flexibility) in young athletes. The sample of respondents referred to a high school student in Krusevac, aged 15 and 16 years, covered by regular physical education classes and the training process in additional physical education classes. The total sample of 112 subjects was divided into two sub-samples: The first sub-sample of 56 subjects included regular physical education classes and training three times a week to realize the model of motor exercises (flexibility) in the physical preparation process in the additional physical education classes constitutes the experimental group.The second sub-sample of 56 subjects, included in regular physical education classes only, constitutes the control group of respondents. A sample of variables consisted of: a deep bow on the bench, a split exercise and a flexibility of shoulder strap with baton. The results of the T-test of motor skills between the initial and final measurements of control group subjects were analyzed. After analysis of the obtained results, it is concluded that there is no statistically significant difference in the tests of motor skills.The univariate analysis of the variance of motor ability tests compared the results of the arithmetic means of the experimental and control groups at the final measurement. Based on the coefficients of the F-ratio and their significance (P-Level), it can be concluded that no statistically significant difference in the level of motor abilities was found between the experimental and control groups.

Published: October 2019

Predmet istraživanja je uticaj kreatina na brzinu plivanja. U ranijim istraživanjima smatralo se da je kreatin monohidrat efikasan nutritivni suplement koji je trenutno dostupan vezano za poboljšanje rezultata vježbanja. Skoro 70% ovih studija izvještava o značajnom poboljšanju kapaciteta vježbanja, dok u ostalim studijama generalno nije zabilježeno značajno poboljšanje rezultata.Ispitivanje je izvršeno na uzorku od 60 plivača članova Akademskog plivačkog kluba „22.april“ podjeljenih u tri grupe i uzrasta od 21-25 godine. Svi ispitanici su muškog pola i dobrog zdravstvenog stanja. Ispitanici koji pripadaju ovoj populaciji nalaze se u zenitu morfološkog i motoričkog razvoja i dobro su motivisani za napredovanje u plivanju. Ispitanici su bili podjeljeni u tri grupe i bavili se rekreativnim plivanjem do primjene ovog istraživanja.Sve tri gupe plivača su odrađivale tačno određen obim plivanja koji je pratio i sam plan za razvoja plivanja kod rekreativaca, s tim da je prva grupa plivača pored plivanja uzimala kreatin, druga grupa plivača je pored plivanja radila i fitnes, a treća grupa je samo plivala. Mjerenje je izvršeno krajem maja i polovinom juna 2008. Godine, na objektu Rekreativnog centra Srpske Toplice (temperatura vode 28 stepeni C).Uzorak varijabli se odnosila brzina plivanja na 50 m tehnikom kraul ( oba mjerenja i razlike u vremenima) korišćeni su pokazatelji deskriptivne statistike.Osnovni cilj rada je utvrditi da li sa uzimanjem, kreatina, dužine trajanja od tri sedmice, ima značajnih razlika na povećanje brzina plivanja u odnosu na modele treniga snage i modele treninga plivanja. Rezultati istraživanja analizirani t-testom pokazuju da su razlike u vremenu plivanja 50 m tehnikom kraul statistički značajne.
Calcium Sulfate/Calcium Phosphate Bone Void Filler in the Treatment of Bilateral Adolescent Unicameral Calcaneal Bone Cysts: 36-Month Follow-Up
Authors: Karr Jeffrey C.
Published: October 2019

A 36-month follow-up of the management of bilateral adolescent unicameral bone cysts in a high school gymnast treated with a calcium sulfate/calcium phosphate (CSCP) bone void filler (BVF) is presented. The more developed left calcaneal cyst was managed with a traditional, open approach consisting of allogenic bone graft, CSCP BVF mixed with platelet-rich plasma. The less developed right calcaneal cyst was managed with a less used approach, a percutaneous bone cortex incision with only the CSCP BVF. The rationale for the selection between the open and percutaneous approaches, long-term BVF incorporation, and positive patient outcome allowing a quick return to athletics are presented.
Proximal Plantar Intrinsic Tendinopathy: Anatomical and Biomechanical Considerations in Plantar Heel Pain
Authors: Christie Sean , Styn Gary , Ford Gregory , Terryberry Karl
Published: October 2019

Plantar heel pain is often managed through podiatric and physical therapy interventions. Numerous differential diagnoses may be implicated in patients presenting with plantar heel pain; however, symptoms are often attributed to plantar fasciitis. Abductor hallucis, flexor digitorum brevis, and quadratus plantae share proximal anatomic attachment sites and mechanical function with the plantar fascia. Although these plantar intrinsic muscles each perform isolated digital actions based on fiber orientation and attachment sites, they function collectively to resist depression of the lateral and medial longitudinal arches of the foot. Overuse injury is the primary contributing factor in tendinopathy. The close anatomic proximity and mechanical function of these muscles relative to the plantar fascia suggests potential for proximal plantar intrinsic tendinopathy as a result of repetitive loading during gait and other weightbearing activities. To date, this diagnosis has not been proposed in the scientific literature. Future studies should seek to confirm or refute the existence of proximal plantar intrinsic tendinopathic changes in patients with acute and chronic plantar heel pain through diagnostic imaging studies, analysis of lactate concentration in pathologic versus nonpathologic tendons, and response to specific podiatric and physical therapy interventions germane to tendinopathy of these muscles.
Grade 2 Chondrosarcoma of the Great Toe: An Unusual Location
Authors: Özmanevra Ramadan , Calikoglu Ece , Mocan Gamze , Erler Kaan
Published: October 2019

Enchondroma is the most common benign cartilage bone tumor of the toes. In contrast, the foot is a rare region for chondrosarcoma, and the involvement of phalanges is extremely rare. In this article, we report an unusual case of intermediate chondrosarcoma involving the proximal phalanx of the great toe of a 52-year-old woman who was previously treated with curettage and bone grafting because of misinterpretation of enchondroma at a local hospital. She presented complaining of pain and swelling that she had experienced for a period of 1 year after the first operation. Radiography revealed a lytic lesion with a subtle punctuate calcification and endosteal scalloping in the proximal phalanx of the great toe. Gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging confirmed soft-tissue involvement and cortical destruction. Staging evaluation with computed tomographic scan of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis was performed to ensure that there was no metastatic disease. Subsequently, a bone biopsy was performed, and the diagnosis was grade 2 chondrosarcoma. The patient was informed about the recurrence of the lesion and the clinical context on the basis of tumor biology of chondrosarcoma and was offered the option of either amputation or wide resection. She preferred the latter. The patient was treated with wide resection and underwent reconstruction with cement and Kirschner wire. She remains free of disease after 1 year of follow-up.
Documentarity
Authors: Day Ronald E.
Published: October 2019

A historical-conceptual account of the different genres, technologies, modes of inscription, and innate powers of expression by which something becomes evident.

In this book, Ronald Day offers a historical-conceptual account of how something becomes evident. Crossing philosophical ontology with documentary ontology, Day investigates the different genres, technologies, modes of inscription, and innate powers of expression by which something comes into presence and makes itself evident. He calls this philosophy of evidence documentarity, and it is through this theoretical lens that he examines documentary evidence (and documentation) within the tradition of Western philosophy, largely understood as representational in its epistemology, ontology, aesthetics, and politics.

Day discusses the expression of beings or entities as evidence of what exists through a range of categories and modes, from Plato's notion that ideas are universal types expressed in evidential particulars to the representation of powerful particulars in social media and machine learning algorithms. He considers, among other topics, the contrast between positivist and anthropological documentation traditions; the ontological and epistemological importance of the documentary index; the nineteenth-century French novel's documentary realism and the avant-garde's critique of representation; performative literary genres; expression as a form of self evidence; and the “post-documentation” technologies of social media and machine learning, described as a posteriori, real-time technologies of documentation. Ultimately, the representational means are not only information and knowledge technologies but technologies of judgment, judging entities both descriptively and prescriptively.
