Before the Tragedy of the Commons: Early Modern Economic Considerations of the Public Use of Natural Resources
Authors: Wolloch Nathaniel
Published: August 2018

This article distinguishes between the precise legal and economic approach to the commons used by Hardin and many other modern commentators, and the broader post-Hardinian concept utilized in environmentally-oriented discussions and aiming to limit the use of the commons for the sake of preservation. Particularly in the latter case, it is claimed, any notion of the tragedy of the commons is distinctly a modern twentieth-century one, and was foreign to the early modern and even nineteenth-century outlooks. This was true of the early modern mercantilists, and also of classical political economists such as Adam Smith and even, surprisingly, Malthus, as well as of Jevons and his neoclassical discussion aimed at maximizing the long-term use of Britain’s coal reserves. One intellectual who did recognize the problematic possibility of leaving some tracts of land in their pristine condition to answer humanity’s need for a spiritual connection with nature was J. S. Mill, but even he regarded this as in essence almost a utopian ideal. The notion of the tragedy of the commons in its broader sense is therefore a distinctly modern one.

Aim.To compare the results of non-invasive activational mapping in patients with “idiopathic” ventricular arrhythmias (IVA) with the data on myocardial structure obtained by late enhancement magnetic resonance tomography (MRI).

Material and methods.Twenty eight IVA patients, mean age 37 y. o. [26; 45], with ventricular arrhythmias of the heart (VA) of 2nd or higher grade by Lown, and 5 healthy volunteers (HV), mean age 29 [29; 30], underwent surface epiand endocardial non-invasive mapping (SEENIM) of the heart with the system for noninvasive electrophysiological investigation of the heart “Amicard 01C” with the analysis of duration of the activation-recovery interval (ARI) of the ventricles, and high resolution MRI (voxel 1,25x1,25x2,5mm) with delayed contrasting.

Results.The number of VA in IVA group was 20196 [11479; 29834] for 24 hours. In 11 patients there were episodes of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT). By SEENIM, predominating morphological type of ventricular ectopic activity in 22 patients sourced from the right ventricle myocardium (RV), of those in 20 from outflow tract of the LV (OTLV). There was significantly prolonged ARI in OTLV patients with IVA comparing to HV (p<0,05). In IVA and non-sustained ventricular tachycardia patients, by contrast MRI of the heart, in LV myocardium there were small foci of contrast retention found. There was no correlation of the areas of contrast retention and topography of VA sources.

Conclusion.In most of IVA patients the source of VA was outflowing tract of the RV. The revealed prolongation of the ARI of this area in IVA patients can be an important factor of IVA onset. Small foci of LV fibrosis, found in late enhancement MRI of the heart and episodes of so called idiopathic VT, might be the earliest presentation of the “tachycardiopathy” at the step of pathology development when there are no signs of LV dilation.

Published: August 2018

Aim.To analyze the results of 5-year follow-up of the paroxysmal atrial fibrillation patients (PAF) taking antiarrhythmic therapy (AAT)

Material and methods.Patients (n=500) were selected to 11 groups: I — healthy, II — controls, III-XI — PAF taking AAT. The baseline parameters of heart rate variability (HRV) were assessed during 5-year follow-up.

Results.Decrease of SDNN does 1,9 times increase the risk of AF development during the first 3 months from preventive AAT start. Decrease of RMSSD does 3,9 times increase the risk of AF during the first 2 weeks, and 1,9 times — 3 months; decrease of Delta X increases the risk of AF 3,9 times during 2 weeks, 2 times — during 3 months, 1,4 times — during 6 months, 1,3 times — during 12 months and 3 years. Increase of Amo does 1,8 times increase the risk of AF during first 3 months. If there was baseline decrease of Delta X and RMSSD, then within 2 weeks the AF paroxysm developed in 7,9% patients, and in 3 months — 15,9% patients. With the decrease of Delta X and RMSSD, in combination with low SDNN, the probability of sinus rhythm retention during 1 year is 51,2%.

Conclusion.PAF patients taking preventive AAT demand for ECG assessment of HRV parameters no less than once per 3 months.

ABSTRACT Background: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is currently the most frequently performed bariatric procedure in Turkey. The goal of weight reduction surgery is not only to decrease excess weight, but also to improve obesity related comorbidities and quality of life (QoL). Aim: To evaluate the impact of LSG on patient quality of life, weight loss, and comorbidities associated with morbid obesity according to the updated BAROS criteria. Methods: Eleven hundred thirty-eight adult patients were undergone to LSG by our bariatric surgery team between January 2013 and January 2016. A questionnaire (The Bariatric Analysis and Reporting Outcome System - BAROS) was published on social media. The data on postoperative complications were collected from hospital database. Results: Number of respondants was 562 (49.4%). Six of 1138 patients(0.5%) had leakage. All patients who had leakage were respondants. The overall complication rate was 7.7%. After a mean period of 7.4±5.3 months(1-30), mean excess weight loss was 71.3±27.1% (10.2-155.4). The respondants reported 772 comorbidities. Of these, 162 (30%) were improved, and 420 (54.4%) were resolved. The mean scores for QoL were significantly increased after LSG (range, p<0.05 to <0.001). Of the 562 patients, 26 (4.6%) were classified as failures; 86 (15.3%) fair; 196 (34.9%) good; 144 (25.6%) very good, and 110 (19.6%) excellent results according to the updated BAROS scoring system. Conclusion: LSG is a highly effective bariatric procedure in the manner of weight control, improvement in comorbidities and increasing of QoL in short- and mid-term.

Published: August 2018

ABSTRACT Due to the water balance in the Brazilian Cerrado, it is not necessary to cultivate arugula in a rainfed system. Together with the lack of research on with this crop, it is necessary to study the response of genotypes to irrigation in this biome. Thus, the objective of this study was to determine the optimal irrigation depth and to identify the best arugula genotypes. Three arugula genotypes were field-tested during two cycles under the effect of four irrigation depths based on crop evapotranspiration. The parameters evaluated were root depth, SPAD index, number of plants and leaves per plant, plant diameter, fresh shoot mass and water use efficiency. The arugula presented the same demand for irrigation in the two cycles, and the genotypes and/or irrigation depths affected the evaluated parameters. The results support that the Folha Larga variety should be preferred by Brazilian Cerrado producers and irrigated with 90% replacement of crop evapotranspiration.

Resumo O objetivo deste artigo é avaliar os fatores associados a quedas em idosos comunitários com diagnóstico de catarata. Trata-se de pesquisa transversal e analítica. A amostra se constituiu de idosos comunitários residentes no Distrito Federal, Brasil. Foram aplicados os seguintes instrumentos: questionário sociodemográfico; Timed Up and Go; Short Battery Performance Test; a Plataforma de Equilíbrio Biodex Balance System; o Índice de Katz, escala de Lawton; Mini-Exame do Estado Mental; e os critérios de fragilidade de John Hopkins Medical Institutions. Para análise empregou-se regressão logística binária. Participaram 142 idosos (85 destes com catarata), com média de idade de 69,39 anos (± 5,67). Observou-se associação das quedas com sexo feminino (OR:4,45) e pontuação submáxima no SPPB (OR:3,53) entre os pacientes com catarata, ao passo que a presença de multimorbidades (OR:5,10) foi o fator de risco para os idosos sem catarata. Os dados sugerem fatores de risco diferentes para idosos com diagnóstico de catarata.

Published: August 2018

Resumo O artigo sistematiza e discute elementos presentes na prática médica que contribuam para uma melhor compreensão da sua reconhecida baixa adesão às diretrizes da Política Nacional de Atenção Básica (PNAB). Para tanto, fez uso de material empírico produzido em duas investigações de caráter qualitativo conduzidas pelo mesmo grupo de pesquisa. Na primeira, entrevistas feitas com dirigentes gestores e controle social de dois municípios paulistas, os médicos são apontados como explicação importante para as dificuldades de se construir uma atenção básica qualificada e resolutiva: um “médico vilão”. Na segunda, utilizou-se observação direta do cotidiano em sete unidades básicas de saúde em três municípios paulistas, com registros de cenas do médico em ação e/ou quando reflete sobre seu trabalho ou quando observado pela equipe. Emerge assim um médico mais complexo, fragilizado, com instrumental reduzido para atuar perante o “social” que invade seu consultório, ameaçado em sua autonomia profissional, com dificuldade de integrar-se ao trabalho em equipe, expropriado das funções regulatórias e nem sempre com clareza do lugar reservado para a clínica na atenção básica: um médico humano, demasiado humano, nem herói, nem vilão.

Background.Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor and accounts for the most number of cancer-related deaths among Russian women. Combination of cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor ribociclib and aromatase inhibitor is approved for the first-line treatment of postmenopausal women with HR-positive HER2-negative advanced breast cancer.

Objective:to conduct pharmacoeconomic evaluation of using ribociclib + aromatase inhibitor for the first-line treatment of HR-positive HER2- negative advanced breast cancer from the Russian healthcare system perspective.

Materials and methods.The comparator was palbociclib + aromatase inhibitor, because ribociclib and palbociclib have similar mechanism of action and are the only available CDK4/6 inhibitors that could be used for treatment of HR-positive HER2-negative advanced breast cancer in Russia. Using clinical trials data and published results of matching adjusted indirect comparison (MAIC), we proposed Markov chain model of breast cancer progression and estimated direct medical costs associated with two considered options (first and subsequent lines of drug therapy, adverse events treatment, inpatient and outpatient care). Budget impact and cost-effectiveness analyses were conducted. Mean duration of treatment in the model was 21,9 and 20,2 months on ribociclib and palbociclib for five year time horizon respectively.

Results and conclusion.Monthly medication costs of ribociclib (270 814.18 RUB) were 9 % less than for palbociclib (296 517.21 RUB). Driven by less monthly medication costs and potential of cost reduction due to dose reduction, five-year total medical per patient costs for ribociclib were 4 991 168 RUB, which were 1 162 666 RUB or 19 % less than for palbociclib. Ribociclib also had better (lower) cost/effectiveness ratio (1 244 906 vs 1 595 867 RUB per life year). As the result, ribociclib was considered a cost-saving option. If 8 162–8 270 women receive ribociclib, public healthcare expenditures will decrease by 20.1 billion RUB (21 %) within 3 years, compared to palbociclib.

Pengaruh Diversitas Dewan dan kinerja keuangan terhadap voluntary corporate disclosure
Authors: Aisyah Esy Nur
Published: August 2018

More disclosure can reduce agency costs incurred by the company. The more management (agent) reveal information about the company can reduce the conflict to shareholders (principal). Therfore, a voluntary disclosure more to minimize the occurence of  information asymmetry. The more management companies disclose information about the incentives obtained become more, because basically shareholders (principal) would be willing to pay the cost of monitoring surveillance to prevent the hazard of the agent.

The aim of this study is to analyze and discribe how diversity influences gender and educational background of the board as well as the financial performance of the corporate voluntary disclosure. Definition councils in this study combines the board of commissioners and board of directors, because indonesia is adopting a two-tier system. The companies sampled is a company registered in the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX).
Adjusted R-squere value (0.55) shows that voluntary corporate disclosure nearly 55% depending on the independent variable is gender diversity of the board, board diversity educational backgrounds, profitability, size, liquidity and liverage of the company. Significance test showed that gender diversity and leverage are important determinants of corporate voluntary disclosure in Indonesia. On the other hand, the research also found that the variable gender diversity, provitability, size and liquidity is not strong explanatory variables to determine the extent of voluntary disclosure of company in Indonesia.

The Micro-Politics of Schooling in Lesotho: Bullying
Authors: Makafane David , Khalanyane Tankie
Published: August 2018

The paper is based on a study undertaken in 2015 to 2017 that explored the micro-politics of schooling in Lesotho, with specific focusing on bullying. A qualitative research design was adopted to probe for in-depth information about bullying in schools. The methodology employed was the case study approach in two high schools in Roma Valley. The population of the study was all teachers and students in the two high schools in Roma valley, while the sample comprised six teachers and eight students, who were purposively selected.

The study found out that bullying exists not only during school activities, but even during after school activities that learners are involved in. It was also found that bullying has negative consequences to all parties; perpetrators, victims and bystanders. Findings further revealed that the minority members of the society like visually impaired people, physically challenged and students with poor background are more prone to bullying because most of them do not have power to counteract bullies. The study further found that newly arrived students are the ones who are mostly targeted by bullies under the pretext of being taught the culture of the school. The study also found that teachers view bullying as an act of power imbalance where a powerful person takes advantage of a less powerful or vulnerable person. The study also found that cyber bullying is the latest form of bullying which is more harmful than any other form of bullying. The study also found that bullying contributes to depression and low self-esteem, which can lead to poor school performance and suicidal tendencies amongst the victims and bystanders.

The study therefore recommends that Lesotho government should come up with a policy to eliminate bullying in schools and establish programmes directed at teaching learners attitudes, knowledge and skills which they can use to circumvent bullying.

Classical and Modern Citizenship Concept in Islamic Perspective
Authors: Irfan Try Wiganda
Published: August 2018

There are two concepts of Islamic citizenships, the Muslims and dhimmi. The concept of dhimmi citizenship is a non-Muslim citizen in the practice of country life received unequal preferential treatment, and different treatment is based on religious differences. In contrast to the concept of modern Islamic citizenship that gives equal treatment to all citizens regardless of religion. The concept of citizenship by the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) in the city of Madinah al munawarah is the best citizenship concept of all time. Rasulullah shollallahu 'alaihi wasallam gives examples of the concept of the best citizenship that there are values of divinity, humanity, democracy and justice. The doctrine of the concept of citizenship of the Messenger of Allah sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam is the concept of citizenship kosmpolitan.

ABSTRAK

Konsep kewarganegaraan Islam terdapat dua, yaitu muslim dan dhimmi. Konsep kewarganegaraan dhimmi adalah warga negara non muslim dalam praktik kehidupan negara mendapat perlakuan istimewa yang tidak sama, dan perlakuan berbeda didasarkan karena perbedaan agama. Berbeda dengan konsep kewarganegaraan Islam modern yang memberikan perlakuan yang sama kepada semua warga tanpa membedakan agama. Konsep kewarga-negaraan yang diterapkan oleh Rasulullah shollallahu 'alaihi wasallam di kota Madinah al munawarah merupakan konsep kewarganegaraan yang terbaik sepanjang masa. Rasulullah shollallahu 'alaihi wasallam memberikan contoh konsep kewarganegaraan terbaik yang terdapat nilai-nilai ketuhanan, kemanusiaan, kerakyatan serta keadilan.

En esta investigación analizamos si el deseo de (más) hijos de uno de los miembros del núcleo conyugal predice el deseo del otro; investigamos las variables sociodemográficas y contextuales que interfieren con la concordancia en el interior de los núcleos conyugales; y analizamos si el sexo de los hijos nacidos vivos (HNV) está vinculado al deseo individual de (más) hijos, y a la concordancia o discrepancia entre los deseos de los miembros del núcleo conyugal. El análisis de los datos obtenidos de la Encuesta Nacional sobre Niveles de Vida de los Hogares (ENNViH) mostró una asociación significativa entre la composición por sexo de los HNV, el deseo de los cónyuges de tener hijos adicionales, y el acuerdo en pareja respecto a los planes futuros de reproducción.

Acute masticatory muscle compartmental syndrome in a dog
Authors: Cray Megan T. , Spector Daniel I. , West Chadwick L.
Published: August 2018

CASE DESCRIPTION A5.5-year-old sexually intact male Bull Terrier was referred for evaluation because of sudden facial swelling and an inability to close its mouth.

CLINICAL FINDINGS Physical examination revealed bilaterally elevated nictitating membranes, an inability to adduct the mandible without assistance, and severe, diffuse, firm masticatory muscle swelling. Computed tomographic examination of the head revealed symmetric bilateral enlargement of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles with heterogeneous contrast enhancement. Intracompartmental pressures in the left and right temporalis muscles as measured with an invasive arterial blood pressure transducer were 72 and 96 mm Hg, respectively.

TREATMENT AND OUTCOME Emergent fasciotomy of the temporalis and masseter muscles was performed, followed by medical management with corticosteroids and analgesics. The diffuse facial swelling resolved within 1 week after surgery. Results of serologic testing for antibody against masticatory 2M muscle fibers were negative. Results of histologic examination of temporalis muscle specimens were consistent with mild to moderate multifocal neutrophilic and histiocytic myositis with myofiber degeneration and necrosis.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE Acute compartmental syndrome should be considered as a differential diagnosis for dogs with a sudden onset of severe skeletal muscle swelling, signs of pain, and dysfunction. Findings for this dog with acute compartmental syndrome isolated to the masticatory muscles suggested that emergent fasciotomy followed by medical management may be an effective technique for treatment of this rare disease in dogs.

Transferring all or some parts of the engineering activities or supply of goods to third persons or companies is one of the adopted methods that transfer a significant part of the likely risks to the concerned side. Out­sourcing activities are followed by many benefits, such as reducing overhead and operational costs, increasing efficiency, reducing risk, and so on; however, if this is not done carefully, not only is no benefit gained, but also new risks are imposed on the organization. Considering that waste of time and cost diversions of projects stem from the selection of inappropriate contractors, risk assessment is important in outsourcing. Using a risk-oriented approach based on software toward outsourcing, the present study aims to identify and rate the factors affecting the selection of contractors and to finally provide a method to evaluate and select the proper way for the selection of contractors. This method is not just based on the lowest price, but it also includes several factors that influence the selection of contractors, which is achieved by applying the Expert Choice software. At first, the most important risk factors in the selection of contractors were identified according to the conducted research. Then, the factors that had the greatest risk potential for achieving the project goals were chosen from among them. The opinions of experts were obtained in the next phase to determine the importance of various factors in the process of contractor selection, which was achieved by the distribution of a questionnaire. Subsequently, the most important factors chosen by the experts were specified, and their relationship with the contractor’s risk management was found.
Novel Converter for Voltage Balance in Series-Connected Capacitors and Batteries
Authors: Hachlowski Jakub , Stala Robert
Published: August 2018

This paper presents a novel concept of a circuit for voltage balance of three series-connected capacitors or batteries, as well as the research results. The problem is related to the control of voltage sharing on series capacitors, supercapacitors or battery banks in energy storage systems or direct current (DC)-link of four-level neutral-point-clamped inverters. The proposed circuit is a switched-capacitor (SC) resonant converter composed of a single capacitor and seven transistor switches. Control of the converter makes it possible to transfer energy between any capacitors, by switching selected transistors. This paper presents the basic concept of the converter, an analysis of control strategies and the simulation results for various cases of voltage balancing.
Year 1948: Emancipation of Women and Slovak Theatre.
Authors: Lindovská Nadežda
Published: August 2018

From the cultural and art point of view, the year 1948 in Czechoslovakia was not just the so-called “Victorious February” of the working people. The remarkable phenomenon of this era, which was related to the post-war political and social movement, was the phenomenon of female emancipation and feminization of the stage production. During the two consecutive theatre seasons 1947/1948 and 1948/1949, at The New Scene Theatre of the National Theatre in Bratislava, several women, led by the director Magda Husaková-Lokvencová created several productions. For the first time, a sovereign feminine alliance had emerged in our performance art, proving that conceptual and thoughtful theatrical production may not be just the domain of men. These women contributed to deconstructing the beliefs of typically male and typically female professions as well as transforming traditional views of the role and position of both sexes in society and the arts. The attention of theatre historiography in the recapitalization of the impacts of the breakthrough events of the Czechoslovak post-war politics of the forty years on cultural events so far focused mainly on the issues of dramaturgy and poetics, the process of ideological transformation and the sovietisation of art in the spirit of socialist realism. The subject of socialist emancipation and theatre was at the edge of the interest of our theatrology. Ten years ago, a collective monograph, dedicated to the first lady of the Slovak theatre directors, Magda Husaková-Lokvencová, managing to free her forgotten personality and work and return her to the context of Slovak theatre history in the second half of the 20th century. There is still room for further research, complementing the knowledge and reflection of the advent of women in the sphere of theatre directory, dramaturgy and scenography artwork, as part of the history of gender relations in Slovakia. Increased interest in the history of women provokes a new reflection on the issue of emancipation and theatre.
Theatre As Architecture of Memory and National Identity. Russian Case – Golden Mask 2018
Authors: Spodniaková Zuzana
Published: August 2018

The author focuses on selected productions of this year’s special program category of the Russian Theatre Festival Golden Mask 2018 – Russian Case in Moscow. The comparison of the latest productions of different genres and artistic aesthetics reveals the common interest of their creators in urgent socio-cultural and historical-political themes. The Russian Case category introduced Russian theatre this year as an increasingly active tool for social engagement, which is concerned with the present or the past of the nation or individual. With the vision of a better future, creators confront themselves with collective and individual memories and seek ways to cope with them in an artistic and human way.
Controle de qualidade e avaliação da estabilidade de soluções nasais obtidas em residências de Vargem Grande do Sul – SP
Authors: Moreno Andréia de Haro , Bovo Aline Arantes
Published: August 2018

A mucosa nasal possui a função de filtrar, aquecer e umedecer o ar garantindo a proteção do trato respiratório inferior contra micro-organismos, substâncias alergênicas e irritantes. Normalmente a higienização é realizada com solução isotônica de cloreto de sódio a 0,9%, produto de fácil acesso e sem restrições de compra. No entanto, a maioria dos usuários não conhece o modo correto de uso das soluções nasais e acabam introduzindo o gotejador nas narinas. Sabe-se que na mucosa nasal são encontrados diversos tipos de bactérias capazes de provocar a contaminação da solução nasal utilizada, além de transmitir a contaminação a outro indivíduo caso o produto seja de uso compartilhado. O objetivo do trabalho foi realizar o controle de qualidade microbiológico de soluções nasais em uso quanto à presença de bactérias e fungos. Metodologia: Foram recolhidas amostras de solução nasal utilizada por 10 voluntários da cidade de Vargem Grande do Sul-SP e avaliadas quanto à contagem de micro-organismos aeróbios viáveis pela técnica de semeadura em profundidade e pesquisa e identificação de patógenos específicos, de acordo com a Farmacopeia Brasileira. Os resultados mostraram intenso crescimento de bactérias e fungos (incontáveis colônias), além da presença de micro-organismos patogênicos (Staphylococcus aureus) em todas as amostras analisadas. Foi possível concluir que o sistema conservante apresentou baixa eficácia na preservação das formulações durante o período de uso, sendo necessária a conservação do produto em local adequado e evitar o hábito de encostar ou introduzir o gotejador dos frascos de solução nasal diretamente nas narinas.
Atuação dos Governos Estaduais no SUAS: Cooperação ou Fragmentação?
Authors: Tock Fabiana , Rezende Guilherme José Rodrigues
Published: August 2018

Esse artigo busca investigar a natureza do comportamento dos governos estaduais frente à política mais ampla de Assistência Social. A agenda em torno da renegociação do pacto federativo pouco avançou sobre a discussão dos papéis e atribuições do ente estadual e tampouco os sistemas de políticas públicas conseguiram vencer o desafio de “chamar os estados para dentro”. Argumenta-se que, por um lado, o desenho federativo e as normativas do Sistema Único de Assistência Social (SUAS) criaram um “vácuo institucional” em que os governos estaduais atuam livres de constrangimentos na adoção de projetos independentes e sobrepostos ao plano nacional e que, por outro lado, os governos estaduais atuam de forma fragmentadora na produção e implementação de políticas na área da assistência social. Por meio da análise da legislação do SUAS e da propensão fragmentadora de uma política do governo estadual paulista, concluiu-se que ambos argumentos encontram sustentação nos dados.

Published: August 2018

Las cartas de estado (Statecharts) son representadas en un leguaje gráfi co para identifi car sistemas reactivos complejos. Se presenta la metodología realizada en donde se realiza una extensión de los diagramas de transición – estado para los cuales las nociones de jerarquía y ortogonalidad han sido introducidas. Recientemente, Statecharts han sido sugeridos para representar modelos de desempeño. En esos modelos de desempeño, el comportamiento de un sistema bajo estudios se considera probabilístico y con este interés se han desarrollado software dedicados a esta tarea. Por consiguiente, la inclusión de probabilidades en protocolo Statecharts es el interes de este artículo. Dado que un sistema reactivo es modelado probabilísticamente para eventos. Este modelo en Statecharts es equivalente una cadena o proceso de Markov en tiempo continuo, por tanto se construye un modelo analítico del modelo y se presenta el aspecto de generación de una cadena de Markov de una representación Statecharts junto con la solución para incluir probabilidades entre las transiciones. En este artículo presentamos los Statecharts a partir de la utilización del Toolbox de Matlab llamado Statefl ow.
