Learning to “Walk the Talk”: Reflexive Evaluation in Community-First Engaged Research
Authors: Goemans Magdalene , Levkoe Charles Z. , Andrée Peter , Changfoot Nadine , Christopherson-Cote Colleen
Published: January 2019

While a considerable body of literature advocates for participatory evaluation methodologies within community-centred community-campus engagement (CCE) projects, there has been limited study to date on how a “community-first”, or community-driven approach to CCE may be informed and strengthened by reflexive evaluation practices. Reflexive evaluation involves a critical reflection on the positionality of participants in relation to the processes they are engaged in and attempting to influence. In response to this gap, this article develops a reflexive account of our activities and influence, as academics, within an evaluation of the first phase of the multi-year pan- Canadian CCE project known as Community First: Impacts of Community Engagement (CFICE). Building on the experiences of community and academic partners across a collective reflective evaluation of over forty demonstration projects within Phase I of CFICE, we reflexively examine our own efforts to incorporate common community-first CCE working practices into the evaluation processes to which we contributed. This examination reinforces scholarly assertions about the crucial position of community voices in co-governance of CCE projects, the need to reduce institutional constraints to community participation, and the value of nourishing relationships within CCE work. The approach explored in this article complements more general evaluation methods for practitioners seeking to ensure accountability to community-first values in their work. The article also explores how reflexive evaluation can inform practitioners about deeper personal and collective introspection and transformations related to relationships and processes associated with employing community-first CCE working practices.

Uniforme escolar: regulando os modos de vestir para a produção de um/a aluno/a “boa pinta”
Authors: Silva Suelén Teixeira da , Bicca Angela Dillmann Nunes
Published: January 2019

Objetiva-se, a partir dos estudos culturais pós-estruturalistas articulados ao campo da Educação, compreender como o Manual do Uniforme Escolar do “Projeto Boa Pinta – Uniforme Escolar” participa da produção de sentidos sobre as vestimentas para ir à escola na rede municipal de ensino da cidade de Pelotas. Para cumprir tal objetivo, analisou-se o Manual do Uniforme Escolar, distribuído juntamente com os kits de uniformes da rede municipal de Pelotas, a partir do conceito de representação cultural. Essa discussão focalizou como a vestimenta pode disciplinar e regular os indivíduos, instaurando compreensões acerca de igualitarismo, de higiene e de segurança, que, por sua vez, funcionam para produzir modos específicos de vestir-se para ir à escola e, ao contrário do que possa parecer, valorizam a aparência.
Vygotski’s theories on Defectology: contributions to the special education of the 21st century
Authors: Barroco Sônia Mari Shima
Published: January 2019

This text exposes the pertinence of L. S. Vygotski’s (1896-1934) theoretical-methodological assertions to the Soviet Defectology at its original birth, when our today’s Basic Education universalization did not exist yet, to Special Education of the 21st century, when the right to Education in democratic states is regarded as a means of social and educational inclusion. The author turns out to be revolutionary for subsidizing an integrated vision of the constitution of the human psychic activity, defending the plain possibility of humanization, the formation of cultural building of human species in both ableb and disabled people. *** Teorizações de Vygotski sobre a Defectologia: contribuições à educação especial do século XXI ***O texto expõe a pertinência das asserções teórico-metodológicas de L. S. Vygotski (1896-1934) à Defectologia Soviética em seu contexto original, quando a Educação Básica não era universalizada, e as coloca em perspectiva para o século XXI, quando a Educação é assumida como direito para todos, nos Estados democráticos e sob a perspectiva da inclusão social e educacional. O autor revela-se revolucionário por subsidiar uma visão integrada da constituição do psiquismo humano, por defender a possibilidade de humanização, a formação do edifício cultural nas pessoas com e sem deficiências.Palavras-chave: Vygotski; Educação Especial; Defectologia.

Four Jh?nas and their Qualities in the Pali Tradition
Authors: Harvey Peter
Published: January 2019

A strong strand of the scholarship of Lance Cousins focussed on the jh?nas and related matters, and he was also a practitioner and teacher of samatha meditation, which aims at the jh?nas. In this dual tradition, this paper explores subtle questions about the nature of each jh?na as dealt with in the Pali Nik?yas, Abhidhamma and commentaries. Its aim is to help illuminate what it is like to be in any of these jh?nas: what is going on in them, and what has been transcended? What do the similes for each jh?na convey about the overall situation in them? What kind` of thought and feelings are understood to occur in them? To what extent does breathing stop in deep jh?na? To what extent is hearing transcended in them? What happens in moving between them? How are they related to developing insight?
Paths of Monastic Practice from India to Sri Lanka
Authors: Clough Bradley S.
Published: January 2019

In 1996, L. S Cousins published a groundbreaking piece on paths of monastic practice titled ‘Scholar Monks and Meditator Monks Revisited’ (Powers and Prebish 2009, 31–46). As the title suggests, this work reconsiders the role of two types of monks, doing so by closely analyzing a famous sutta (Mah?cunda Sutta, A III 355–356) that depicts a strong dispute between jh?yins or ‘meditators’ and dhammayogas, whom scholarship has almost universally defined as ‘scholars’. Because of this, almost all have interpreted this debate as the first sign in early Indian Buddhism of a great bifurcation in the sa?gha between those concentrating on book learning (pariyatti) and those concentrating on practice (pa?ipatti) — a split that became more and more marked over the centuries until the division became more or less official in medieval Sri Lanka. Cousins convincingly contests this history, with one of his main points being that the dhammayogas were not at all just scholars. Like the meditators, theirs was a practical path that resulted in profound realization of the Dhamma, albeit a different path from that of the meditators. Cousins then goes even further, arguing that the split between scholars and meditators is not very evident in South Asian Buddhist history until the time of Buddhaghosa and thereafter. My intention here is to respond as fully as possible to Cousins’ methods and conclusions, by offering evidence and arguments that sometimes support his work further and sometimes critique his work. This is done in the spirit of spurring on more discussions on this important, complex, and contested issue.
‘I’m Not Getting Anywhere with my Meditation …’
Authors: Amaro Ajahn
Published: January 2019

This article draws on the teachings of the Pali Canon and the contemporary lineages that are guided by its principles. In particular, reference is made to the author’s mentors in the Thai Forest Tradition. It explores the respective roles of goal-directed effort and contentment in the process of meditative training, and skilful and unskilful variations on these. Effort is needed, but can be excessive, unreflectively mindless, unaware of gradually developed results, or misdirected. Contentment can be misunderstood to imply that skilful desire has no role in practice, and lead to passivity; though it is needed to dampen down an over-energized mind, or motivation rooted in aversion or ambition, and comes from insight-based non-attachment. Right effort avoids the craving to become or to get rid of, but is associated with a skilful chanda/desire that is an aspect of the iddhi-p?das, the Bases of Spiritual Power. Mindfulness aids the balance of energy and concentration in the Five Faculties, and the energizing and calming qualities in the Seven Factors of Enlightenment. In the end, from practising Dhamma in a way that is truly in accordance with Dhamma (dhamm?nudhamma-pa?ipatti), progress naturally flows from seeing and becoming Dhamma.
Ekottarika-?gama Discourse Without Parallels
Authors: Bhikkhu Anālayo
Published: January 2019

With the present paper I study and translate a discourse in the Ekottarika-?gama preserved in Chinese of which no parallel in other discourse collections is known. This situation relates to the wider issue of what significance to accord to the absence of parallels from the viewpoint of the early Buddhist oral transmission. The main topic of the discourse itself is perception of impermanence, which is of central importance in the early Buddhist scheme of the path for cultivating liberating insight. A description of the results of such practice in this Ekottarika-?gama discourse has a somewhat ambivalent formulation that suggests a possible relation to the notion of rebirth in the Pure Abodes, suddh?v?sa. This notion, attested in a P?li discourse, in turn might have provided a precedent for the aspiration, prominent in later Buddhist traditions, to be reborn in the Pure Land.
Formation of Canons in the Early Indian Nik?yas or Schools in the Light of the New G?ndh?r? Manuscript Finds
Authors: Allon Mark
Published: January 2019

The new G?ndh?r? manuscript finds from Afghanistan and Pakistan, which date from approximately the first century BCE to the third or fourth century CE, are the earliest manuscript witnesses to the literature of the Indian Buddhist nik?yas or schools. They preserve texts whose parallels are found in the various Tripi?akas, or what remains of them, preserved in other languages and belonging to various nik?yas, including sections of ?gamas such as the Ekottarik?gama and Vana-sa?yutta of the Sa?yutta-nik?ya/Sa?yukt?gama and anthologies of such s?tras, besides many texts that are not generally classed as "canonical", such as commentaries. These very early collections of texts raise questions concerning canon-formation, such as whether the Gandh?ran communities that produced these manuscripts had fixed ?gama collections and closed canons or whether this material witnesses a stage in which collections and canons were still relatively fluid and open, and whether these manuscripts, which span several centuries, witness a shift towards fixity. This paper addresses these issues and re-examines our understanding of the formation of the canons of the early Indian nik?yas in light of the new G?ndh?r? manuscript finds.
Making Ethics Education Matter: A Novel Approach for Enhancing Ethics Education in a Medical School
Authors: Freeman Cook Ann , Spars Gretchen , Black Lora , Beard Mark , Freeman Jerome
Published: January 2019

This article was migrated. The article was not marked as recommended. Basic instruction in medical ethics has been viewed as an important component of medical education for more than three decades. However, the logistics of determining when and how such education should occur have proven to be complicated. The authors review past and current postulates regarding bioethics education in medical schools. They then discuss the use of a novel, longitudinal curricular that is designed to strengthen recognition, discernment, and resolution of ethical problems throughout medical training. The model provides both in person and on-line instruction, as well as the option for medical students to obtain a Bioethics Certificate. Quotes from students are used to shed light on the ethical journey that medical students undertake and their enthusiasm for innovative coursework that prepares them for the moral challenges that accompany the provision of healthcare.
Sementes de Parapiptadenia rigida (Benth) Brenan tratadas com Trichoderma e polímero produzem mudas com características morfofisiológicas satisfatórias
Authors: Missio Evandro Luiz , Muniz Marlove Fátima , Brum Daniele Lemos , Schultz Camila Polett , Filho Alberto Cargnelutti
Published: January 2019

Parapiptadenia rigida é uma espécie florestal de ocorrência em várias regiões do Brasil, produzida com freqüência em viveiros florestais, sendo a semente sua forma de multiplicação. Geralmente apresenta boa germinação, porém, a qualidade fisiológica e sanitária dos lotes ainda ocasiona perdas em viveiro. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o tratamento de sementes de P. rigida visando à qualidade de mudas em viveiro. Os tratamentos foram arranjados em fatorial, representados por produto fungicida (biológico, químico e testemunha), polímero (polímero e testemunha), micronutrientes e bioestimulante (micronutrientes, bioestimulante, micronutrientes + bioestimulante, testemunha) com quatro repetições. Aos 60 e 120 dias após a emergência avaliou-se a altura de planta, o diâmetro do coleto e o número de folhas. Ao término do experimento foram pesadas a massa seca da parte aérea, raiz e total, além da relação massa seca da raiz/parte aérea. O tratamento de sementes de P. rigida com Trichoderma sp. e polímero antes da semeadura, promove o crescimento das mudas. A aplicação de micronutrientes e bioestimulante via semente, não contribui para o crescimento de mudas de P. rigida.

The Impact of Social Media on Communication Politeness: A Survey of Prospective Primary School Teacher Students
Authors: Julia Julia , Kurnia Dadang , Sudin Ali
Published: January 2019

The presence of social media into daily life has had a positive and negative impact on communicating manners. This impact also occurs in the educational environment or on campus. This paper aims to analyze student politeness in communicating through social media. The study was conducted by providing a survey of 147 students (ages between 19-24 years). The results of the study prove that communication through social media has an impact on students to be more willing to communicate with anyone. However, politeness in communication have decreased, because the survey shows that the ethics of communicating through social media are not good and not polite. Thus, it can be concluded that social media has influenced the politeness of communication between students and between students and lecturers.

Published: January 2019

Background: Aging being a natural physiological process can present both physical and psychic changes, due to the conditions of life of the person, and can be influencers for the installation of chronic non-communicable diseases, which may predispose this subject to an episode of fall. Objectives: To compare the propensity to fall in the elderly male and female, practitioners and non-practitioners of physical activities. Methods: The sample consisted of 120 elderly people of both genders practitioners and non-practitioners of physical activity and were used the “Timed Up and Go” and “Functional Reach” tests. Results: Among non-practitioners of physical activity, significant differences were observed between the values of functionality, being that the male group presented higher values than the female group, i.e., men move more, therefore has the lowest risk of fall. Conclusion: It was concluded that the female practitioners of physical activity have a greater risk of suffering an episode of fall compared to the non-practitioners, and in relation to the men practitioners and non-practitioners of physical activity there was no significant difference, showing that the elderly women have a higher risk to fall compared to the elderly men.
Correction of High Corneal Astigmatism during Cataract Surgery

Published: January 2019

Patients, who need cataract surgical treatment, often fail to achieve a high uncorrected visual acuity after surgery due to the concomitant astigmatism involved. Currently, surgeons are increasingly performing combined surgical interventions, including relaxing limbal keratotomic incisions (manual keratotomy) or femtoarcuatous keratotomy, as well as implanting toric intraocular lenses. In recent years, additional toric intraocular lenses have been available. Purpose: to analyze our own clinical experience of implanting an additional toric intraocular lens to correct corneal astigmatism in three clinical cases. The article presents our clinical experience of successful correction of residual corneal astigmatism after previous cataract phacoemulsification with the implantation of a monofocal toric intraocular lens in three patients patients aged 70, 61 and 54 years. In all cases, an additional toric intraocular lens Add-on Torica-sPB pre-filled in the cartridge with a good refractive effect was implanted. The uncorrected visual acuity was 1.0 in all the investigated cases at the follow-upo period of 6 months after the surgical intervention. Calculation of the toric intraocular lens optical power was performed using an online calculator. A feature of surgical intervention was the repositioning of the additional toric intraocular lens into the ciliary sulcus. Changes in the data of keratotopography before and after surgery were absent. In none of the investigated cases, intra- and postoperative complications and dislocation of the implanted additional toric intraocular lens were determined. Based on these cases, high predictability, efficacy and safety of implantation of an additional toric intraocular lens are shown, in the case of residual middle-grade corneal astigmatism after the initial cataract phacoemulsification with the toric intraocular lens implantation. This approach can be successfully used in patients during one-stage surgical treatment of cataract and associated high-grade corneal astigmatism, expanding existing protocols for the treatment of this group of patients.

Modern ophthalmological practice is inseverable linked with cosmetology and esthetic medicine. Every year, the number of patients, especially women, who received various types of cosmetology procedures (botulinum toxin injections, eyelash extensions, eyelid tattooing, dermal fillers injections, etc.) in facial area increases, in particular in the periorbital zone.Purpose: to conduct a comprehensive assessment of clinical and functional parameters characterizing the state of the ocular surface and the tear-producing system in case applying cosmetic procedures in the periorbital area (Botox injections, eyelid tattooing, eyelash extension).Patients and methods. The study included 106 women (212 eyes). Exclusion criteria: early postoperative period after ophthalmosurgical intervention, acute inflammatory diseases of anterior and posterior eye segment, glaucoma, the presence of intraocular pathological changes (hemophthalmia, detachment of the eye membranes, tumors). The average age of the patients included in the study was 36.37 ± 9.0 years.Results and discussion. The results of a comparative evaluation of two groups of patients — a group with a history of cosmetic procedures (tattooing the eyelids, botulinum toxin, dermal fillers, eyelash extensions) in the periorbital zone and patients who did not use such procedures, has showed that cosmetic procedures affect on the clinical and functional eye surfaces state and on morphofunctional state of meibomian glands. Thus, the frequency of detection of symptomocomplex of dry eye syndrome was on 36 % more often determined in the group of patients received cosmetic procedures. It has been shown that the combined effect of cosmetological procedures (tattooing the eyelids, eyelash extensions, injections of dermal fillers and botulinum toxin in the periorbital region) aggravates the course and prognosis of Dry Eye Syndrome and meibomian glands dysfunction. A direct correlation between the severity of complaints characteristic of Dry Eye Syndrome and the number of procedures was found (r = 0.4982, p = 0.0000); the frequency of detecting complaints of dryness and discomfort and the number of procedures (r = 0.6427, p = 0.0000); compression test indices and the number of procedures (r = –0.4712, p = 0.0000); the frequency of occurrence of inflammatory reactions of ocular surface and the number of procedures (r = 0.3778, p = 0.0001). The risk of tear production disturbance — dry eye syndrome and dysfunction of the meibomian glands is higher in patients using botulinum toxin injections and eyelash extension in comparison with patients using eyelid tattooing and injections of fillers with hyaluronic acid in the periorbital zone.

There is detailed review of multi-factoral mechanisms of spectacles with peripheral defocus influence in children with progressive myopia in this article. At present local retinal mechanisms of neuro-regulatory control of eye growth are most effective in prevention of myopia development and progression. Optical correction of relative peripheral hyperopia with following peripheral myopic defocus affects the biochemical cascade from retina to choroid and sclera, which constrains an eye growth. Optical methods of myopia control, including spectacles, widely used in native and foreign ophthalmology practice. Since 2011, in Russia Perifocal-M spectacles are using, said spectacles provides bigger functionality of influence on myopic eye comparing to foreign analogues. Construction features of said spectacle lens have a complex influence on different optic-physiological eye structures and each of said structures affects refractogenesis. Perifocal spectacles takes into account specific for myopic eye features of central and peripheral refraction along horizontal and vertical meridians. They have stronger refraction in horizontal, which allows to eliminate specific optical disbalance in myopic eye and to create optical balance in the eye. Perifocal-M lens construction with asymmetric horizontal progression allows to correct relative peripheral hyperopia, to create myopic defocus in horizontal and to affect relations between refraction of nasal and temporal halves of retina. The latter is due to the fact that optical influence starts earlier and has bigger effect on nasal half of retina relative to temporal. Perifocal spectacles are inducing positive spherical aberrations in the eye, increasing accommodation functions, supporting high binocular visual acuity, improving binocular interaction during near work, fighting against heteroforias. Thus, optical features of Perifocal-M spectacles for the first time creates conditions for versatile functional influence on main myopogenic factors simultaneously, it effectively stops myopia progression.

Purpose.To assess the state of blood flow in retrobulbar vessels using the method of color Doppler imaging in thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) associated with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), malignant hypertension (MH) and catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome (CAPS).Methods. The study involved 16 patients aged from 18 to 43 years with TMA associated with aHUS (13 patients), MH (2 patients) and CAPS (1 patient). All patients underwent a study of the state of blood flow in the vessels of the retrobulbar space by color Doppler imaging using a multifunctional ultrasonic diagnostic device Voluson 730 Pro and Voluson E8. The spectrum of blood flow in the ophthalmic artery (OA), central retinal artery (CRA), central retinal vein (CRV), in the medial and lateral short posterior ciliary arteries (SPCA) was recorded and the following parameters were determined: maximum systolic velocity (Vsyst), final diastolic velocity (Vdiast), peripheral resistance index (RI), pulsation index (PI).Results. The analysis of the Doppler blood flow spectrum in all patients with TMA syndrome revealed a decrease in Vsyst in the vessels of the retrobulbar space, more pronounced in the CRA, with an increase in the venous component of the Doppler spectrum. In patients with TMA associated with aHUS and MH Vdiast in the studied vessels were in normal limits or increased, RI and PI were reduced. In aHUS a statistically significant correlation was found between Vdiast in OA and the level of haptoglobin in blood serum, which is a classic marker of intravascular hemolysis.Conclusion. Color Doppler imaging of retrobulbar vessels is an important method for the diagnosis of ocular hemodynamics disorders in the syndrome of TMA. All patients with TMA syndrome are characterized with a decrease in the systolic component of the Doppler spectrum of blood flow in the vessels of the retrobulbar space, especially in the CRA, with an increase in the venous component. With aHUS and MH diastolic blood flow in the retrobulbar vessels corresponds to the norm or increases, RI and PI decrease. In TMA associated with aHUS, the final diastolic velocity of blood flow in OA depends on the level of microvascular  hemolysis.

The clinical and laboratory picture of acute infectious conjunctivitis has undergone significant changes in the last few years. This circumstance, apparently, is associated with the appearance of a large number of both eye and systemic forms of antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, immunocorrecting drugs and their widespread use, often without establishing an etiological factor of inflammation. The objective of our work was to propose a scheme of rational empirical therapy of acute infectious conjunctivitis, based on the potential of modern ophthalmopharmacology; and to study the etiological spectrum and features of the clinical picture of the above diseases, thereupon correcting the proposed scheme according to the obtained data. Material and methods. A retrospective analysis of over 20,000 outpatient charts of patients with acute inflammation of the conjunctiva and a prospective examination of 275 patients with acute infectious conjunctivitis was carried out. The method of polymerase chain reaction (quantitative and qualitative) was used to identify the genetic material of the pathogen in scrapings from the conjunctiva, the oropharynx and the nasopharynx. Results. The data of the retrospective analysis has shown that when the symptoms indicated acute infectious conjunctivitis, the actual diagnosis of an ophthalmologist was adenoviral conjunctivitis. There were no other nosological forms with the type of pathogen recorded in outpatient charts. The peak incidence was in the winter-spring period, with the highest number of cases in 2011 and 2013 (1509 and 1482 respectively). Results of the prospective study showed the leading role of adenoviruses (20 % of cases), hemophilic rod (18 % of cases) and pneumococcus (12 % of cases) in the development of acute inflammation of the mucous membrane of the eye. As a concomitant infection, the bacteria of the staphylococcus group were found most often. The spectrum of the revealed pathology confirmed the validity of the selected empirical therapy. Conclusion. The results of the study allow us to recommend the prescription of three groups of drugs (antibiotic, antiviral, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) in the treatment of acute infectious conjunctivitis.

The frequency and structure of ophthalmopathology in workers of the Novokuznetsk Metallurgical Combine (NMC) have been studied. In total 1911 workers of NMC have been examined. The control group comprised 1801 people working in hazardous industrial conditions. The experimental group consisted of employees dealing with management, engineering center, accounting (110 people). Their work was not connected with the impact of unfavorable factors of metallurgical production. In the control group, the hazard classes ranged from 3.2 to 3.4. The difference between the classes of hazard impact consisted in an increase of the intensity of the hazardous factors exposure. In the structure of conjunctival diseases we have diagnosed chronic conjunctivitis (198.3 ‰), chronic blepharoconjunctivitis (109.4 ‰), pinguecula (266.7 ‰) and pterygium (7.2 ‰) in metallurgical workers. Pengucules in the control group of workers was not only more often than in engineers, but also larger, often located in the inner and outer corner of the eye, and was detected in workers under 30–35 years. The workers of the main shops suffered more severely from the function of tear production and the stability of the pre-corneal tear film. The miners suffered from the highest frequency of cataract development — 301 ‰. Thus, a high incidence of inflammatory and dystrophic diseases of the eyelids and conjunctiva, cataracts in metallurgy has been established. An increase in the frequency of ophthalmopathology was noted with an increase in the length of service under harmful conditions of metallurgical production. The authors suggest the term “metallurgy ophthalmopathy”, which includes manifestations of chronic conjunctivitis and / or blepharoconjunctivitis against the background of unstable precorneal film and frequent formation of posterior-subcapsular opacities of the lens.
