Moja droga do sacrum
Authors: Łukaszewski Paweł
Published: November 2017

Wychodzę z założenia, że lepiej pisać muzykę „własną” niż „nową”. Dystansuję się więc od muzycznej awangardy. Odnalazłem swoją drogę w tworzeniu muzyki sakralnej. Zaliczam do niej przede wszystkim kilkanaście dużych form wokalno­‑instrumentalnych, takich jak Vesperae pro defunctis, Requiem, Via crucis, Resurrectio, Missa de Maria a Magdala, Magnificat & Nunc dimittis, Miserere oraz cztery symfonie – o Opatrzności, miłości, aniołach i miłosierdziu, a także kilkadziesiąt kompozycji chóralnych a cappella. Ważnymi etapami mojej drogi były dzieła związane z przemijaniem – Vesperae pro defunctis i Requiem, oraz z nurtem duchowości pasyjnej i paschalnej: Via crucis i Resurrectio. Na potrzeby swojego języka muzycznego zaproponowałem pojęcie „tonalność odnowiona”, które dobrze przystaje do materiału dźwiękowego, którym się posługuję w swoich utworach. W artykule przywołuję dokumenty Kościoła katolickiego odnoszące się do muzyki, w tym teksty papieży Piusa X i Piusa XII oraz Konstytucję o liturgii świętej Soboru Watykańskiego II. Komponując muzykę sakralną, staram się podążać za głosem Kościoła katolickiego wyrażonym w tych dokumentach. Uważam bowiem, że muzyka sakralna powinna być święta i powszechna. Za Bohdanem Pociejem przywołuję cztery poziomy wnikania twórców w przestrzeń sacrum, tj.: temat religijny, nastrój religijny, czas i dźwięk sakralny oraz forma sakralna, które można odnieść również do mojej muzyki.
Posicionamento do Cebes no processo de implementação do SUS na conjuntura 2003-2014
Authors: Santos Jamilli Silva , Teixeira Carmen Fontes
Published: November 2017

RESUMO O trabalho analisou o posicionamento do Centro Brasileiro de Estudos de Saúde (Cebes), enquanto sujeito coletivo, ante as decisões governamentais com relação ao Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) na conjuntura 2003-2014, a partir de 11 documentos e 40 editoriais da revista ‘Saúde em Debate’. A entidade reconhece os avanços do SUS, mas posiciona-se criticamente quanto ao financiamento e à gestão do sistema, apontando a insuficiência de recursos e a tendência à incorporação de modalidades de gestão de serviços que estimulam a privatização da gestão pública, chamando a atenção, também, para o estreitamento das bases de sustentação política da Reforma Sanitária Brasileira, por conta da relativa desmobilização e da fragilidade da articulação dos movimentos sociais.

Published: November 2017

ABSTRACT The use of spontaneous species of the Caatinga biome can contribute significantly to the nutritional demand of vegetable crops, thereby providing an agroecological and sustainable form of production. The objective of this research was to determine the effects of different biomasses of Calotropis procera (rooster tree) and times of incorporation into the soil of green manure during two growing seasons on the agronomic performance of coriander cv. Verdão produced in Serra Talhada, a semi-arid region of Pernambuco, Brazil. The experimental design was randomized blocks with three replications. The treatments were arranged in a 4 x 4 factorial scheme, with the first factor consisting of biomass amounts of C. procera (5.4, 8.8, 12.2 and 15.6 t ha-1 on a dry basis) and the second by the incorporation times into the soil (0, 10, 20 and 30 days before coriander planting). The evaluated characteristics were plant height, number of stems per plant, yield of green mass and dry mass of shoot. The best productive performance of coriander was observed in amounts of 12.2 (spring) and 8.8 (autumn-winter) t ha-1 C. procera added to the soil, with an ideal incorporation time of 13 (spring) and 23 (autumn-winter) days before sowing of the crop and with larger accumulations of green and dry mass of the shoot being obtained in autumn-winter.

Published: November 2017

ABSTRACT This study focuses on the determination of the hygroscopic equilibrium and isosteric heat of the aji chili pepper (Capsicum baccatum) under different controlled temperature and relative air humidity conditions. In addition, the objective was to adjust the model among the existing literature models that best represent the isothermal sorption behavior, as well as propose a new model to represent this phenomenon. Having obtained the mathematical models and experimental data, the best model and parameters that represent the hygroscopicity and the isosteric heat satisfactorily was determined. The temperatures used were 30, 55, and 70 °C, with water activity levels from 0.11 to 0.84. The model that best fit the data had a R2 value of 0.97. The integral isosteric heat of sorption for ‘Dedo-de-Moça’ chili pepper within a moisture content from 0.07 to 0.55 (dry basis) ranged from 3641.66 to 2614.38 kJ kg-1.

Published: November 2017

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the remediation of water containing the insecticide chlorpyrifos by using constructed wetlands (CW) cultivated with Polygonum punctatum, Cynodon spp. and Mentha aquatica, operated under different hydraulic retention times: 24, 48, 96, 144 and 192 h. The system efficiency was based on reduction of the initial concentration of chlorpyrifos and toxicity of the contaminated water. The results showed that constructed wetlands are an excellent alternative for remediation of the insecticide chlorpyrifos in aqueous medium. It was observed that the average overall removal efficiency of the insecticide was 98.6%, and in the first hydraulic retention time, 24 h, chlorpyrifos was removed to levels below the detection limit in all CW. This result is mainly attributed to adsorption and microbial degradation. For the qualitative standard acute toxicity tests with Daphnia similis, for most samples there was a reduction in toxicity greater than 80%. It was reported that the ecotoxicological tests with the effluents of the constructed wetland are a good option as an indicator of the effectiveness of treatments and a promising alternative to complement the physical and chemical analyses.

OS MAÇONS E A MODERNIZAÇÃO EDUCATIVA NO BRASIL NO PERÍODO DE IMPLANTAÇÃO E CONSOLIDAÇÃO DA REPÚBLICA
Authors: Amaral Giana Lange do
Published: November 2017

Resumo A atuação de maçons no processo de modernização da educação brasileira, remonta ao século XIX, respaldada por idéias liberais e iluministas. Se consolida nas primeiras décadas do regime republicano, influenciada pelo ideário positivista e anti-jesuítico, em defesa do ensino elementar público, laico e obrigatório. No Brasil, a Maçonaria adaptou-se às condições específicas e necessidades regionais de onde se instalou. Portanto ela não deve ser compreendida num sentido unívoco, sendo mais fácil identificar a ação e engajamento ideológico de maçons e não da Maçonaria propriamente dita. O presente estudo, fundamentado pela História Cultural, privilegia o uso de periódicos maçônicos e busca destacar práticas políticas dos maçons como intelectuais, gestores, legisladores, escritores, jornalistas e professores, bem como as Lojas Maçônicas como potenciais espaços de sociabilidades e organização ideológica.

Authors: Tümer Ali Rıza , Yıldırım Mahmut Şerif , Koçak Savaş
Published: November 2017

Objective: Recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) paralysis and hypocalcemia following thyroid surgery have been designated as complication or malpractice. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate surgeons’ opinions towards RLN injury and hypocalcemia after bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy (BST) and total thyroidectomy (TT) in nodular goiter and thyroid carcinoma.
Materials and Methods: We prepared a questionnaire to determine approaches of surgeons in such cases. We grouped the respondents according their thyroid surgery experiments and asked them to determine whether it is malpractice or complication in cases with unilateral or bilateral RLN paralysis and hypocalcemia after “bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy” and in cases with unilateral or bilateral RLN paralysis after “total thyroidectomy”.
Results: In all groups describing bilateral RLN injury was more common. Problems which are defined as “complication” in cancer patients, were more likely defined as “malpractice” in benign cases. However, these differences were generally not statistically significant.
Conclusion: There is no consensus about malpractice and complication discrimination among physicians. Every physician should evaluate every specific case in its own nature and conditions when asked to determine whether the case should be determined as complication or malpractice.

RESUMO: O Tribunal de Justiça de Rondônia exerce a sua função jurisdicional em todo o Estado, e para tanto precisa fazer o melhor uso possível de recursos humanos e materiais disponíveis. Para isso, ele se utiliza da Licitação para contratar, entre os interessados, a melhor proposta que atenda às suas necessidades estratégicas, haja vista a exigência constitucional e infraconstitucional. Esta regra, no entanto, não deve constituir óbice ao atendimento oportuno das necessidades do Poder Judiciário e, consequentemente, do jurisdicionado, sendo fundamental que se analise a viabilidade de suas aquisições de bens e serviços de forma sistemática, organizada e eficiente. Diante da necessidade de cumprimento de tais requisitos, o presente artigo busca identificar e analisar problemas e dificuldades na análise da viabilidade das contratações no âmbito do TJRO. Para tanto, a pesquisa se utilizou de uma abordagem qualitativa e as informações foram obtidas a partir de um questionário de múltipla escolha, aplicado aos gestores ou a um membro indicado pela equipe, com grande experiência em planejamento de contratos administrativos, pertencentes a quatro unidades gestoras de contratos do TJRO. Pela análise dos dados, restou evidente que, para realizar o estudo da viabilidade da contratação, há grande necessidade de melhor capacitação e atualização sobre normas e procedimentos por todos os setores que responderam à pesquisa, dificuldades para se identificar, analisar e calcular os riscos dos contratos, bem como problemas ou obstáculos à consecução do planejamento da contratação de forma alinhada ao planejamento estratégico institucional.

Objectives: We performed this systematic review and meta-analysis to confirm whether patients benefit more from pharmacist-led anticoagulation management than other models. Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and reference lists of yielded results conducted up to April 25, 2017. RCTs and observational cohort studies and case-control studies which compared the percentage of time within the target therapeutic range (TTR), the percentage of time within the expanded therapeutic range (TER), haemorrhage events, thrombosis events, mortality, patient satisfaction and/or medicine cost saving of pharmacist-led anticoagulation management with other models, and species were limited to humans. Two investigators evaluated methodology and extracted data from included studies independently. Data analysis were performed by STATA 12.0 software and quality of evidence assessment was performed by GRADEprofiler software. Results: 8 RCTs and 9 observational cohort studies with 9919 patients were included eventually with high quality and no publication bias. In RCTs pooled results, TTR (p=0.548 moderate-quality), TER (p=0.285, moderate-quality), total haemorrhage events (p=0.140, low-quality), minor haemorrhage events (p=0.162, low-quality), major haemorrhage events (p=0.237, low-quality), thrombosis events (p=0.615, low-quality) and mortality (p=0.876, low-quality) was not significant between two groups. In observational studies pooled results, TTR (p=0.000, low-quality) was significant higher in pharmacist-led management group and the risk of total haemorrhage events (p=0.000, moderate-quality), minor haemorrhage events (p=0.000, moderate-quality) and thrombosis events (p=0.000, moderate-quality) were significant lower in pharmacist-led management group. Patient satisfaction and medicine cost saving were descriptively reviewed. Conclusions: According to the grading of evidence, we concluded that the risk of total haemorrhage events, minor haemorrhage events and thrombosis events significantly decreased in pharmacist-led anticoagulation management group compared with other management models and no significant difference in TTR, TER, major haemorrhage events and mortality between two groups. Longer follow-up period RCT studies with large sample size should be done in the future to confirm effectiveness of pharmacist-led anticoagulation management model. This article is open to POST-PUBLICATION REVIEW.

Can student interdependence be experienced negatively in collective music education programmes? A contextual approach
Authors: Sarazin Marc
Published: November 2017

Many studies and accounts argue that collective music-making can contribute to building social cohesion and training social skills, and particularly that student interdependence in collective music education programmes can foster this. I argue that this implies two assumptions: first,
that students mostly experience interdependence in music programmes positively, and second that their experiences of interdependence are not significantly affected by their experiences in other settings. To address these assumptions, this paper reports on findings from a mixed-methods case
study of a French in-school collective music education programme targeting disadvantaged students. The findings suggest that students could experience interdependence negatively in the music programme, and that this was informed by the tendency for interdependence to be framed negatively in
the school context. Further, the study suggests that the school's pedagogical notion of the cadre led students to frame negative interdependence not as an encouragement to act cohesively, but rather as an adult imposition. The paper ends by discussing the implications of these findings
and arguing for further studies investigating the mechanisms that link different collective music-making and educational settings with positive outcomes.

Maize yield represents the interaction between genotype and environment. An excellent genotype should have high mean yield and small variation across common locations.This information could be obtained through yield performance test and stability analysis of yield data obtained from multilocation trials. This research was aimed to find out yield stability of eight early maturing maize promising lines at five sites using the AMMI method. There were total 12 genotypes of maize hybrids used in this research, consisted of eight hybrids (CH-1, CH-2, CH-3, CH-4, CH-5, CH-6, CH-7, and CH-8) and four check varieties (Gumarang, Bima 3, AS-1, and Bisi 2). This research was conducted at five locations ie. Gowa (South Sulawesi), Donggala (Central Sulawesi), Manado (North Sulawesi), Probolinggo (East Java) and Lombok Barat (West Nusa Tenggara) from April to September 2013. The treatments were arranged in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with 3 replications. Variable measured was grain yield at all trial locations. Analysis of variance was performed for each site data to determine the performance of each genotype at each location. Results showed that genotype CH-2, CH-4 and CH-6 were considered as stable genotypes. Genotype CH-2 and CH-4 have a potensial to be released as new early maturing variety, due to its high yield of 8.71 and 7.52 t/ha averaged over 5 locations. Genotype CH-6 yielded below the mean yield of all genotypes, while genotype CH-8 was adaptive to a specific location, such as in Donggala, with yield of 8.38 t/ha.

Research on brown planthopper (BPH), (Nilaparvata lugens (Stal.) resistant to insecticide using dipping method was carried out in the wet season (WS) of 2011/2012 at Indonesian Center for Rice Research, Sukamandi. BPH field population from Sukamandi, West Java, known as Sukamandi BPH population and Juwiring, Central Java, as Juwiring BPH population, were measured their degree of resistance to insecticides to be compared with the BPH biotype 1 of screen house population. The insecticides used were imidacloprid, ethiprole, thiamethoxam, fipronil, BPMC, MIPC, buprofezin, cypermethrin and cyhalothrin. The resistance ratios (RR) were measured by LC50 of BPH from fields/LC50 of BPH from screen house. Results showed that Sukamandi BPH population was moderately resistance to imidacloprid and cypermethrin, but was low resistance to buprofezin, and was decreasing into susceptibility to fipronil, thiamethoxam and cyhalothrin, where as to ethiprole, BPMC dan MIPC the Sukamandi BPH was still susceptible. The Juwiring BPH population was low resistance to imidacloprid, buprofezin, cypermethrin and cyhalothrin, but the Juwiring BPH was decreasing into susceptibility to BPMC, ethiprole and fipronil. The population was still susceptible to thiamethoxam and MIPC.

Core Ideas

Effect of management on subsequent crop yield variability is an important concern.

There was no evidence of legacy fungicide effect on corn, soybean, and wheat yield.

Corn silage and wheat after soybean exhibited a quadratic response to residual N.

The effect of management on subsequent crop yield and quality variability is an important concern. However, there are a lack of studies that examine legacy effects of important management practices on corn (Zea mays L.), soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], and wheat grain yield (Triticum aestivum L.). The objective of this study was to examine the legacy effect of N fertilizer and foliar fungicide, on corn, soybean, and wheat grown in rotation in no‐till (NT) and the use of nematicide seed treatment under conventional and NT systems on corn, and soybean grown in rotation. Data were collected in 2016 in Wisconsin from two long‐term crop rotation experiments conducted during 2013 to 2015, that had continuous management treatments applied (N, foliar fungicide, tillage, and nematicide seed treatment). The results showed no evidence of residual fungicide effect on yield of any of the three crops or on wheat test weight. Within the 14 crop rotations, corn harvested for silage (LCWS) and wheat after soybean (CSW) exhibited a significant quadratic response to residual N. For corn‐LCWS, 3 yr of N under‐ and overfertilization reduced subsequent yield, whereas above‐optimum N rates resulted in wheat‐CSW yield reductions in the following year. A nematicide seed treatment legacy effect was observed on corn grown under NT where yields were similar or lower than the untreated control. Overall data suggest that legacy effects after 3 yr of uniform practices are management specific. Nevertheless, examination of such effects in long‐term experiments is imperative.
Export of Total, Particulate, and Apatite Phosphorus from Forested and Agricultural Watersheds
Authors: Ostrofsky M. L. , Stolarski A. G. , Dagen K. A.
Published: November 2017

Concentrations of apatite phosphorus (P) have been shown to be greater in the soils of agricultural and disturbed watersheds than in soils of forested watersheds. This observation suggests that changes in the relative concentration of apatite P in the sedimentary record of lakes might be a useful marker for land use changes in the watershed where sediments are dominated by allochthonous loading. To determine if P export in streams is indicative of soil P in the watershed, we measured the export of total, particulate, and apatite P in first‐order streams draining four forested and four agricultural watersheds in western Pennsylvania. Streams draining agricultural watersheds exported significantly more total suspended solids (TSS) and more total, particulate, soluble, and apatite P, particularly during periods of high discharge, than did streams draining forested watersheds. Total suspended solids exported from forested watersheds contained similar amounts of apatite P (μg apatite P g−1 TSS), as did agricultural watersheds in spite of lower soil concentrations. However, since agricultural watershed exported almost four times the mass of TSS, the net export of apatite P was greater than from forested streams. These results confirm the increased apatite P export from agricultural watersheds and suggest that inferences drawn from the profiles of apatite P in the sedimentary record of lakes may reliably indicate historical disturbances in watersheds caused by agriculture or other erosional events.

Core Ideas

Agricultural soils had on average 2.5× greater concentrations of apatite P.

Streams draining agricultural watersheds exported 3.1× more P than forested streams.

Streams draining agricultural watersheds exported 3.8× more suspended solids.

TSS was qualitatively similar with respect to apatite P from both land use categories.

A novel starch accumulation and early senescent leaf mutant esl10 was identified among progenies of the rice (Oryza sativa L.) indica maintainer line Xinong 1B raised from seeds treated with ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS). Under paddy field conditions, leaf starch accumulation commenced at the three‐leaf stage in the mutant esl10 and the leaves began to yellow at the four‐leaf stage, gradually extending from the tip to the middle of the leaf. The yellowing phenotype was most obvious at the tillering stage and persisted until maturity. Compared with the wild type, photosynthetic pigment concentrations and net photosynthetic rate of esl10 were significantly lower, whereas the concentrations of reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde (MDA) were higher. Moreover, catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities decreased in leaves at the tillering stage. Quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction showed that the expression of genes associated with starch metabolism pathway changed. Excessive accumulation of leaf starch may have caused the leaf premature senescence, finally influencing grain yield and quality of esl10. Genetic analysis showed that esl10 was controlled by a dominant nuclear gene (tentatively called ESL10). ESL10 was mapped between the single‐nucleotide polymorphism markers SNP585 and SNP498 on chromosome 7 with a physical distance of 416.29 kb including 56 annotated genes.

Authors: Murphy Brent P. , Tranel Patrick J.
Published: November 2017

The Amaranthus genus consists of as many as 70 species, many with similar morphology. The development and validation of a DNA barcode specific to key amaranths would aid in plant identification. These barcodes can be used to develop assays for single‐species identification, critical for species surveillance and contaminant screening. A reference panel of 75 internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) across 11 Amaranthus spp. was analyzed for species‐specific single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Identified SNPs were validated using 92 accessions of an Amaranthus spp. diversity panel. Of the 75 investigated ITS sequences from NCBI, 13 were identified as potentially mislabeled. Phylogenetic analysis of ITS from the reference panel distinguished 9 of the 11 investigated species. Nine SNPs were validated as species specific. Five species were distinguished with single SNPs. To illustrate the utility of the ITS SNP analysis, a quantitative assay for Amaranthus tuberculatus (Moq.) Sauer identification was constructed targeting SNP 73G and validated using simulated population samples. Results from this research will aid in population screening for A. tuberculatus, and in the development of other quantitative detection assays for Amaranthus.
The limit cycle oscillation of divergent instability control based on classical flutter of blade section
Authors: Liu Tingrui
Published: November 2017

Numerical simulation of a novel fuzzy control and back propagation neural network (BPNN) control for divergent instability based on classical flutter of 5-DOF wind turbine blade section driven by pitch adjustment has been investigated. The work is dedicated to solving destructive flap/lag/twist divergent instability from classical flutter, which might occur during the gust wind action, and might cause fracture failure of the blade itself and tower body. In order to investigate the optimal control method, the parameters of blade section are specially designed so as to simulate the actual situation, which lead to absolutely divergent motions (ADM) under gust wind load. The control of ADM often leads to limit cycle oscillation (LCO), the larger amplitude of which is likely to cause fracture failure of tower body. A novel fuzzy control method with adjustable quantization gain and BPNN control strategy are investigated in order to effectively eliminate LCO (leading to direct convergence of the system) or reduce the amplitude of LCO. The obvious effects of fuzzy control and BPNN control are illustrated by numerical comparisons of vibration suppression from nonlinear time response, amplitude of LCO and frequency spectrum analysis. An experimental platform is built based on hardware-in-the-loop simulation by way of PLC-OPC technology in order to test the real-time performance of the control algorithm. The feasibility of the control algorithm is demonstrated by the experimental results displayed by touch-screen hardware.

Published: November 2017

En vista del alto grado de contaminación que se presenta hoy en día, se han comenzado a buscar medidas para combatir y regular este problema. Entre estas medidas están los precipitadores electrostáticos (PES), dispositivos usados en el proceso de purificar el medio ambiente. Este proceso se realiza por medio de alta tensión de voltaje en placas de metales para generar campos eléctricos que atrapan las partículas de contaminantes. De esta manera se purifica el aire del ambiente. Para el proyecto se utiliza un circuito que aumenta la tensión de la red local (120 V) a 27 000 voltios por medio de un transformador conocido como flyback. Este proyecto busca diseñar y construir un dispositivo de este tipo con elementos de fácil adquisición, con la finalidad de entender cómo puede ser usado en hogares y zonas urbanas. Se logró realizar un prototipo eficaz para limpiar el aire con elementos y materiales de bajo costo.

Published: November 2017

En la producción de alimento vivo, representado principalmente por microalgas, se buscan nuevas técnicas de medios de cultivo sustituyendo las fórmulas tradicionales en aras de reducir costos. Teniendo en cuenta esto, se usó un medio no convencional (fertilizantes industriales) para producir las microalgas Isochrysis galbana y Nannochloropsis sp. en cultivos estáticos, y se alcanzaron densidades de 7,5 × 106 cel mL–1 de Nannochloropsis sp. en 1000 L y 0,265 × 106 cel mL–1 de I. galbana en 250 L. Hubo un crecimiento exponencial, que se alcanzó entre los tres y los ocho días, en que se duplicaron las densidades iniciales. Se sugiere cosechar en lapsos cortos (hasta cuatro días), debido a la proliferación de contaminantes y la disminución de la calidad de las células con el tiempo. Se concluye que el medio diseñado para el enriquecimiento del cultivo es una alternativa viable para la producción de las microalgas que permite satisfacer la demanda alimenticia en el levante de larvas de peces marinos.

Competencia mediática organizacional: Una revisión sistemática de literatura científica en Web of Science
Authors: García Montero Ana Carine , Aguaded Ignacio , Ferrés Joan
Published: November 2017

Este artículo analiza el resultado de una revisión sistemática de literatura científica, realizada en la base de datos ISI WOS, con el objetivo de responder a dos preguntas: ¿Los artículos científicos de impacto sobre competencia mediática incluyen la dimensión organizacional? Y, si lo hacen, ¿desde qué aspectos se pone en evidencia la dimensión organizacional? La búsqueda fue realizada entre los años 2007-2017, a partir del descriptor “media* competenc*”, refinada por “organization*”. De un total de 169 artículos, y tras aplicar algunos criterios de inclusión y exclusión, resultó en un corpus de tres artículos de impacto. Esto muestra que en los campos de la comunicación y de la educación no se considera el aspecto organizacional en el desarrollo de la competencia mediática y que los artículos seleccionados en otros campos solo se centran en competencias para el uso de medios sociales. Se concluye que existe un camino amplio para desarrollar investigaciones que consideren la dimensión organizacional en el desarrollo de la competencia mediática.
