Sémák és újítások: a kultúra finanszírozási helyzete a 21. század eleji Magyarországon I. (2000-2010)
Authors: Mák Kornél
Published: January 2021

A finanszírozás kérdése az emberi kultúra létezése óta mindig felmerülő kérdés, a kultúra sosem létezett mecénás támogatása nélkül. Tanulmányomban a kulturális javak gazdasági jellemzőin és a kultúrpolitika sajátosságain keresztül vizsgálom a hazai kultúrafinanszírozás alakulását a 2000-es évektől kezdődően. Ha a magánszektor kulturális támogatásának állami támogatáshoz viszonyított arányát tekintjük, akkor Magyarország európai szinten a GDP 3,9%-kával a középmezőnyben van. A háztartások kulturális és szabadidős kiadásai 4,30%-ot tesznek ki, a közvetlen állami támogatás 1,60%, így hazánkban az állam és a háztartások kulturális kiadásai összesen 5,90%-os mértékűek A tanulmányban fentiek mellett bemutatásra kerül az önkormányzatok szerepe a kultúra anyagi hátterének biztosításában. A cikk befejezéseként foglalkozom az adórendszer szerepével, illetve a témakör foglalkoztatáspolitikai összefüggéseivel. Kapott eredményeim összegzéseként elmondható, hogy Magyarország 21. századi kultúrafinanszírozása sok tekintetben kiemelkedő az Európai Unió országai közül, de egyfajta útkeresésben van, és a rendszerváltás óta eltelt húsz év még kevés volt arra, hogy a finanszírozás rendszere kellőképpen kialakuljon. Vizsgálatom első részének gyakorlati mondanivalójaként kiemelhető, hogy a bemutatott finanszírozási tendenciák fényében kialakíthatónak tűnik egy hosszú távon is fenntartható finanszírozási rendszer, amely jól szolgálja a kulturális szféra működési stabilitását.
Biomimetic Metamaterial Design Simulation and Evaluation for Building Acoustics by Impedance Measurements
Authors: Yazıcı Beyza , Gül Zühre Sü
Published: January 2021

This study investigates the potentials of acoustic metamaterial (AMM) applications in room and building acoustics by means of impedance tube experiments. With their extreme properties in either sound absorption or transmission loss, AMMs can perform better than traditional acoustic materials in buildings. Importantly, they are also more sustainable and hygienic than fibrous and porous materials. Depending on the matrix material used, AMMs can vary in transparency and color. Considering both their acoustic and aesthetic values, this study develops different types of metamaterial for possible uses as a partition wall, a surface layer, or a design element. The proposed metamaterials are primarily based on the exploration of ratios and forms from nature—the golden ratio, web-labyrinthine structures, genetic and neural systems such as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules, and the synapse structures in the brain—reproduced on a subwavelength scale. These abstractions are then combined with the 3-D space coiling and 3-D labyrinth approaches of AMM design. Modules of the proposed AMMs are manufactured in a 3-D printer and tested in an impedance tube to estimate their normal incidence sound absorption coefficients and transmission loss characteristics. Based on the results obtained, the modules with the higher performances are used in the design of partition walls of varying heights. Two real-case architecture studios are simulated with and without the proposed AMM interventions over field test–tuned acoustical models of the studios to assess the effectiveness of such an approach in a possible acoustical design problem.

A herpetological survey of Edith L. Moore Nature Sanctuary
Authors: Jones Dillon , Foshee Bethany , Fitzgerald Lee
Published: January 2021

Urban herpetology deals with the interaction of amphibians and reptiles with each other and their environment in an urban setting. As such, well-preserved natural areas within urban environments can be important tools for conservation. Edith L. Moore Nature Sanctuary is an 18-acre wooded sanctuary located west of downtown Houston, Texas and is the headquarters to Houston Audubon Society. This study compared iNaturalist data with results from visual encounter surveys and aquatic funnel traps. Results from these two sources showed 24 species belonging to 12 families and 17 genera of herpetofauna inhabit the property. However, several species common in surrounding areas were absent. Combination of data from community science and traditional survey methods allowed us to better highlight herpetofauna present in the park besides also identifying species that may be of management concern for Edith L. Moore.

Published: January 2021

This study comes from an integrated approach combining daylighting and thermal aspects of building spaces. Several room configurations derived from the combination of four main design variables are tested. Width-to-Depth-Ratio (WDR), Window-to-Wall-Ratio (WWR), orientation, and climate conditions are simultaneously investigated to find the best solutions that enhance the Daylight Availability and, at the same time, diminish solar gains and total energy use (lighting plus cooling and heating). Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is the statistical technique used to outline design guidelines for Mexican climate regions, namely arid, tropical, and temperate. Hence, optimal values for WDR and WWR were recommended for specific orientations and climates. Therefore, PCA is set as the basis of a methodology to define design strategies for specific locations and climates that further lead to updating high-performance standards in buildings at regional levels. Results also showed that climate conditions, such as seasonal cloud cover, temperature, and solar radiation, are crucial when establishing target limits for the actual daylit and over lit areas. The temperate climate was able to endure up to 60% as over lit area. Instead, the arid and tropical climates tolerated up to 50% and 40%, respectively, as over lit areas.

Aims. Ambulatory video‐EEG monitoring has been utilized as a cost‐effective alternative to inpatient video‐EEG monitoring for non‐surgical diagnostic evaluation of symptoms suggestive of epileptic seizures. We aimed to assess incidence of epileptiform discharges in ambulatory video‐EEG recordings according to seizure symptom history obtained during clinical evaluation.

Methods. This was a retrospective cohort study. We queried seizure symptoms from 9,221 consecutive ambulatory video‐EEG studies in 35 states over one calendar year. We assessed incidence of epileptiform discharges for each symptom, including symptoms that conformed to a category heading, even if not included in the ILAE 2017 symptom list. We report incidences, odds ratios, and corresponding p values using Fisher's exact test and univariate logistic regression. We applied multivariable logistic regression to generate odds ratios for the six symptom categories that are controlled for the presence of other symptoms.

Results. History that included motor symptoms (OR=1.53) or automatisms (OR=1.42) was associated with increased occurrence of epileptiform discharges, whereas history of sensory symptoms (OR=0.76) predicted lack of epileptiform discharges. Patient‐reported symptoms that were associated with increased occurrence of epileptiform discharges included lip‐smacking, moaning, verbal automatism, aggression, eye‐blinking, déjà vu, muscle pain, urinary incontinence, choking and jerking. On the other hand, auditory hallucination memory deficits, lightheadedness, syncope, giddiness, fibromyalgia and chronic pain predicted absence of epileptiform discharges. The majority of epileptiform discharges consisted only of interictal sharp waves or spikes.

Conclusions. Our study shows that the use of ILAE 2017 symptom categories may help guide ambulatory video‐EEG studies.
Benign familial infantile epilepsy associated with KCNQ3 mutation: a rare occurrence or an underestimated event?

Published: January 2021

Benign familial infantile epilepsy (BFIE) is the most genetically heterogeneous phenotype among early‐onset familial infantile epilepsies. It has an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern with incomplete penetrance. Although PRRT2 is the most mutated gene detected in families with BFIE, other mutations in KCNQ2, SCN2A, and GABRA6 genes have also been described. To date, KCNQ3 mutations have been detected in only four patients with BFIE. Here, we describe the clinical pattern and course of an additional individual with BFIE associated with a novel missense heterozygous KCNQ3 c.1850G>C variant inherited by his unaffected father. The incidence of KCNQ3 mutations among BFIE patients is reported to be low in the literature, however, whether this is underestimated is unclear as not all current epilepsy gene panels include KCNQ3.
Encephalopathy related to status epilepticus during sleep due to a de novo KCNA1 variant in the Kv‐specific Pro‐Val‐Pro motif: phenotypic description and remarkable electroclinical response to ACTH

Published: January 2021

Although the classic phenotype of episodic ataxia type 1 (EA1) caused by variants in KCNA1 includes episodic ataxia and myokymia, further genotype‐phenotype correlations are difficult to establish due to highly heterogeneous clinical presentations associated with KCNA1 pathogenic variants. De novo variants in the paralogous Pro‐Val‐Pro motif (PVP) of KCNA2, an essential region for channel gating, have been reported to be associated with severe epilepsy phenotypes, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE). Here, we describe the first patient with a DEE who developed an encephalopathy related to status epilepticus during sleep (ESES) and cerebellar signs, harbouring a variant in the Kv‐specific PVP motif of the KCNA1 gene. Interestingly, he showed a remarkable long‐term electroclinical response to IM ACTH therapy. This report extends the range of phenotypes associated with KCNA1 variants to include that of ESES, and suggests that ACTH therapy is likely to have a positive effect in patients with these variants.

Published: January 2021

We present a rare patient clinically suspected to have mixed idiopathic generalized and focal epilepsy, which was supported by BOLD pattern based on EEG‐fMRI. A 37‐year‐old female with three types of refractory seizures starting at age six ‐ tonic with breathing difficulties and confusion, generalized tonic‐clonic, and focal with brief impairment of awareness and versive head movement, initially thought to represent atypical absences ‐ was evaluated by EEG‐fMRI. She was also shown to have three types of interictal epileptic discharges: generalized spike or polyspikes and slow waves, and left fronto‐temporal and right fronto‐temporal discharges. We assessed BOLD activation and deactivation for each type. For generalized patterns, the BOLD activation and deactivation were typical of that seen in primary generalized epilepsy. Whereas maximum activation for left fronto‐temporal EEG patterns was observed in the left superior frontal gyrus and posterior superior temporal gyrus, maximum activation for right fronto‐temporal patterns was bilateral in the right posterior middle temporal gyrus and left posterior middle temporal gyrus. The EEG‐fMRI results suggested that the patient had both refractory idiopathic generalized and focal epilepsy, and not a generalized epilepsy originating from a focus.

Published: January 2021

Autoscopic phenomena (AP) are characterized by seeing an image of oneself in extra‐personal space. These phenomena are rare and the anatomy of brain regions producing these phenomena is not well defined. We report anatomical electroclinical correlations during a stereoelectroencephalography‐recorded seizure with autoscopic hallucination (a form of AP in which the double of oneself is seen from an internal point of view). Seizure onset zone was quantified using the epileptogenicity index method (EI). Maximal EI values were obtained in the left lateral parietal cortex (supramarginal gyrus) and high values were also found in the left posterior‐superior insular cortex, left temporo‐occipital junction and contralateral inferior parietal lobule. Our case confirms the involvement of the inferior parietal lobule, temporo‐parieto‐occipital junction and posterior insula in the genesis of autoscopic hallucination.
How to distinguish seizures from non‐epileptic manifestations

Published: January 2021

The first and most important step in establishing diagnosis of epilepsy consists of careful history taking from patients and witnesses. The clinical evaluation of the event will lead the indication for further diagnostic tests including e.g. EEG and MRI. Hence, identifying the paroxysmal event as epileptic or non‐epileptic is the very first step in the diagnostic process. Paroxysmal events pose a clinical challenge, as these are unpredictable and do not usually occur in the doctor's office. History taking, hunting for witness reports and home‐video recordings are the main tools to conclude whether a paroxysmal event is a seizure or not. In this review, we describe the most common differential diagnoses of epileptic seizures, including syncope, psychogenic non‐epileptic seizures, as well as a variety of paroxysmal conditions and behaviours of all age groups. Misdiagnosis of non‐epileptic events as epilepsy may not only defer the correct diagnosis and treatment but also poses additional risk by prescribing antiepileptic drugs unnecessarily. Moreover, missing the diagnosis of epilepsy implies risk of additional seizures and therefore possibly injuries, sudden death in people with epilepsy, or status epilepticus. Studies have shown that patient and witness accounts are unreliable in a high percentage of cases. Therefore, the core competency of doctors and medical professionals assessing paroxysmal events is knowledge of the clinical features that help define the different aetiologies, thus empowering them to establish the most accurate appraisal of an event.

El estudio analizó el tratamiento informativo del cambio climático (CC) de los medios de comunicación de América Latina durante las cumbres mundiales de Lima, (2015), París (2015) Marruecos (2016) y Bonn (2017). Los resultados del análisis de contenido de 339 piezas informativas mostraron la prevalencia de los marcos políticos, seguido de relaciones internacionales. Las fuentes políticas, destacados en el papel de colaboradores, dominaron el debate sobre el clima. Las noticias tienden a reflejar un tono conformista y mencionar alguna solución. El estudio concluye que las historias tienen un enfoque internacional y no derivan a las necesidades locales de temas relacionados con la crisis climática.

Laboratory performance and modelling behaviour of hot-mix asphalt with recycled crushed glass
Authors: George T B , Anochie-Boateng J K , Jenkins K J
Published: January 2021

In South Africa research is currently under way to determine the suitability of using locally available recycled crushed glass as a partial fine aggregate substitute in the production of asphalt mixes. This paper characterises the laboratory performance of a dense-graded asphalt wearing course mix consisting of 15% recycled crushed glass. The influence of selected antistripping additives on moisture susceptibility was specifically assessed as a variable in the performance evaluation of the glass-asphalt mix as follows: (a) the effect of 1% hydrated lime, (b) the effect of 0.5% liquid antistripping additive, and (c) the effect without the addition of antistripping additive. The effect of these variables on the moisture susceptibility of the glass-asphalt mix was evaluated using the tensile strength ratio parameter supported with a microscopic imaging analysis. Additionally, the stiffness and permanent deformation properties of the glass-asphalt mix that demonstrated optimum resistance to moisture damage was compared to the same mix without crushed glass. The performance properties were evaluated using the Huet-Sayegh model and a polynomial model respectively, which were used particularly to develop performance characterisation models for the glass-asphalt mix. The findings of this study revealed that an anti-stripping additive is essential to meet moisture susceptibility criteria and alleviate moisture damage in dense-graded glass-asphalt mixes. In particular, moisture susceptibility was improved using hydrated lime rather than the liquid antistripping additive. Furthermore, the selected constitutive models were able to effectively characterise the laboratory performance of both mixes, with the glass-asphalt mix demonstrating improved resistance to permanent deformation when compared with the conventional asphalt mix.

Traditionally, a storyboard has been used in the film-making industry as part of the preparatory process of film production. In this article, we focus on its use as a creative space for analysis in educational research. Specifically, we make visible our learnings, as social science researchers, about storyboarding as an imaginative, tangible, and reflexive space for narrative inquirers to work with the complexity of restorying lived lives in educational research. We draw on Sibonelo's reflections on using the storyboard in his doctoral dissertation and offer our subsequent dialogues on his reflections as the data for this article. Our learnings indicate that storyboarding opens-up researcher subjectivity in the restorying process. In engaging critical friends, it serves as a space for the mediation of multiple perspectives and meanings of participants' lived lives and is an imaginative space in which to filter creatively large amounts of field texts. We thus suggest that storyboarding enhances verisimilitude in the restorying process.

Background and Aim: Though not all babies have birth defects there is still a high probability ofcongenital defects if the glucose level is not under control during pregnancy and also increasedmorbidity in terms of hypoglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia, and respiratory distress syndromewarranting NICU admissions. The objective of this study was to find out the maternal and perinataloutcome in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus. Material and Methods: An observationalstudy was conducted among 400 pregnant women who came for antenatal checkups attending theOPD of the department of obstetrics and gynecology, the tertiary care institute of Gujarat, from June2012 to November 2013. A detailed history including maternal age, parity, BMI, and clinicalexamination along with antenatal checkup was done. Results: Out of 400 antenatal women testedfor OGTT using 75 grams of glucose, about 12.75% (51) of antenatal women developed GDM. Out of51 GDM mothers, about 10% ie.,5 antenatal women had pregnancy-induced hypertension and only2 developed polyhydramnios and preterm delivery in 11.76% of antenatal women with GDM Out of51 babies, 19.6% of them had respiratory distress syndrome, 7.8% of the babies requiring NICUadmissions because of hypoglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia, and hypocalcemia. Conclusion:Gestational diabetes mellitus was once thought to be a mild condition but now it carries significantshort-term and long-term implications for the women and their offspring. Screening for diabetes ismandatory in preventing complications as strict glycemic control is necessary for preventingmacrosomia and unexplained stillbirths.

O presente estudo pretende avaliar a efetividade do programa de outdoor training KidsTalentum na aprendizagem de competências sociais e emocionais em crianças do ensino básico. No programa, realizado ao ar livre, as crianças são retiradas da sua zona de conforto e estimuladas a enfrentar vários desafios. Foi adotado um desenho quase experimental com pré-teste e pós-teste, com duas turmas de cada ano de escolaridade do 1.º ciclo do ensino básico, distribuídas num grupo de controlo (n=78) e num grupo experimental (n=78). Para avaliar as competências sociais e emocionais foram utilizados tanto instrumentos de desempenho como de auto e heteroperceção. O efeito do programa foi avaliado através da análise da mudança de scores. Os alunos que participaram no programa KidsTalentum apresentaram uma melhoria nas competências de tomada de decisão e autoconhecimento. Os resultados apontam a metodologia outdoor training como uma ferramenta facilitadora da aprendizagem das competências sociais e emocionais.

Este artigo apresenta o estudo de validação das versões portuguesas da Escala de Gosto pela Escola e Evitamento Escolar (SLAQ) para a crianças e para pais. Esta escala pretende avaliar o grau em que a criança gosta e evita a escola, na perspetiva da mesma e dos pais. A amostra é constituída por 394 alunos, do 2º ao 4º ano de escolaridade e respetivos pais. Na versão para crianças, a análise fatorial confirmatória revela uma estrutura  bifatorial (Gosto pela Escola e Evitamento Escolar) equivalente à versão original e uma elevada consistência interna. Na versão para pais, não se verificou um ajustamento adequado entre os dados e a estrutura bifatorial original. Da análise fatorial exploratória, surgiu um ajustamento mais adequado de um modelo tri-fatorial da versão para pais (Gosto pela Escola; Evitamento Escolar; Comunicação sobre a Escola), com níveis bons de consistência interna.
DEVELOPMENT OF MULTICAST SERVICE TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS REGULATION ON XG-PON OLT EQUIPMENT
Authors: Solihah Nomarhinta , Nashiruddin Muhammad Imam
Published: January 2021

Today the deployment of Fiber-To-The-x (FTTx) technology is developing very rapidly in various regions of Indonesia. One of the most favorite technologies for telecommunication operators is the XG-PON, which offers high-speed internet access speeds of 10Gbps downstream and 2.5Gbps upstream directions and able to pass various services at once, such as data, voice, to video multicast (IPTV) services. However, regulation of the standardization of technical requirements for multicast services does not include this new technology, so a reference test is needed to update the regulations. In this study, testing of Optical Line Termination (OLT) devices uses five scenarios, namely the ability to pass IGMP version 2, IGMP version 3, ability to support IGMP Snooping and IGMP proxy and capacity in passing several IGMP multicast groups. The test results show that the tested OLT XGPON device can display the suitability of the IGMP message format version 2 with the RFC 2236 standard and IGMP version 3 with the RFC 3376 Standard. Whereas in IGMP proxy testing traffic, the OLT equipment displays the source IP address is 0.0.0.0, which complies with the RFC 4541 standard for the Reporting proxy process. The OLT XG-PON device tested was also capable of passing 1,024 IGMP multicast groups with a range of multicast group addresses from 239.1.1.1 to 239.1.5.1.

This study provides an overview of signal distribution pattern using Cost-231 Multi-Wall (MWM) propagation model. The signal distribution pattern is used as a reference in projecting indoor Access Points (AP) placement in Malang Institute of Asia. The MWM approach estimates the actual radio wave propagation value for measurements are made by considering obstacles between APs and user devices. The study recommends 10 optimal points of AP placement for the 1st, 3rd and 4th-floors, and 7 optimal points for the 2nd-floor. Determination of these placement points was based on the estimated signal strength obtained by users, at -50dBM up to - 10dBm, which is the range for good and excellent signal category.
Naive Bayes Classifier Optimization on Sentiment Analysis of Hotel Reviews

Published: January 2021

Feature extraction plays an important role in the sentiment analysis process, especially of text data. The Naive Bayes Classifier performs well on low feature dimensions. However, the accuracy provided is not optimal. To acquire  optimal machine learning model,  information gain method, evolutionary algorithm, and swarm intelligent algorithm are applied. The objective of this study is to determine the performance of the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to optimize the Naive Bayes Classifier. Vectorization of words is carried out using TF-IDF. In order to produce high PSO performance, the PSO-NBC model is tested with several parameters, namely the number of particles (k = 3), setting of the number of iterations and inertia weight, individual intelligence coefficient (c1 = 1), and social intelligence coefficient (c2 = 2). Inert weight is calculated using the formulation (w = 0.5+ Rand ([- 1,1])). In conclusion, PSO is able to solve the problem space of text-based sentiment analysis. PSO is able to optimize the accuracy of Naive Bayes at a value of 89% to 91.76%. PSO performance is determined by the parameters used, especially the number of particles, the number of iterations, and the weight of inertia. A large number of particles accompanied by an increase in inertia weight can increase accuracy. The number of particles 20-30 has reached the optimal accuracy.

Ganglion kistleri vücudun çeşitli yerlerinde görülebilir. Diz içi ganglion kistleri dizde lokalize şişlik ile yada MR görüntüleme esnasında rastlantısal olarak belirlenir. Ganglion kistleri genellikle ön çapraz bağdan, menisküslerden, popliteus tendonundan ve infrapatellar yağ dokusu olan Hoffadan köken alabilirler. Diz içi ganglion kistlerinin cerrahi tedavisinde açık cerrahi yaklaşımlarla eksizyon yada artroskopi yardımlı eksizyon yapılabilir. Artroskopi yardımlı ganglion kisti eksizyonu cerrahi morbiditesinin azalığı, post op dönemde hareket kısıtlılığı olasılığının daha düşük olması ve hasta konforu açısından açık cerrahiye göre daha üstün bir yöntemdir. Artroskopik cerrahide rezidü ganglion kist duvarı bırakılmamasına özen gösterilmelidir. Diz içi ganglion kistlerinin cerrahi tedavisinde artroskopik debridman kolay ve morbiditesi düşük bir yöntemdi.
