Published: January 2018

The European Union in 2012 banned conventional battery cages for the welfare
reasons. However, transition to new housing systems uncovered some new
problems, such as keel bone damage (KBD), which also could endanger welfare
of laying hens. Although KBD is a research topic which attracts a growing
attention in the EU, in Serbia it is still rather unknown phenomenon, even
among the scientific and professional community. This research is the first
attempt to determine the prevalence of KBD in laying hens in housing systems
currently existing in Serbia. The results of conducted monitoring show
presence of KBD on all observed farms, except the organic one. The occurrence
of KBD was at an acceptable level (from the standpoint of hen welfare) in the
free-range system, enriched cages without equipment and conventional battery
cages (4%, 3% and 1%, respectively), while in the fully equipped enriched
cages it was high (39%). One could assume that this high prevalence of KBD in
this system is a consequence of a long roosting on a metal perches.
Attitudes toward victim and victimization in the light of the just world theory
Authors: Simeunovic-Patic Biljana
Published: January 2018

The present paper discusses current empirical status of the Just world theory
introduced several decades ago by Melvin Lerner, the content and functions of
a just world belief as its central construct, and particularly, the relation
between a just world belief and victim blaming and victim derogation
phenomena. In the light of existing research evidence, a just world belief
and a need to re-establish a ?justice? when this belief is threatened, is
considered to be an adaptive mechanism that protect a belief that a world is
secure and the future is predictable, as well as a confidence in the
purposefulness of selfdiscipline, long-term personal investments and social
rules respecting. As proposed By the just world theory, when a person faces
injustice, i.e. others? (innocent victims?) suffering, his/her belief in a
just world is threatened. Possible reactions to that threat comprise various
rational victim helping activities, but also specific cognitive defensive
strategies, including cognitive distortion, rationalization and
reinterpretation of an event in order to minimize injustice or deny injustice
happened at all. In the course of reinterpretation of injustice, victims are
often blamed for their former actions, or derogated for their character, in
order to indicate them responsible for their own fate and suffering. The
findings of research studies suggest that the likelihood of employing
cognitive defensive strategies rises if formal responses to crime and
victimization lack or fail. This further suggests that an efficient and
effective formal social response in terms of both sanctioning of offenders
and reparation of victims should be considered highly important in reducing
the risk of stigmatization and rejection of victims. Finally, the paper
discusses the role of victim?s just world beliefs in post-trauma adaptation
and coping processes. In virtue of findings from the existing research
literature it may be concluded that victim?s belief in a just world is not
necessarily obstructive for the adaptation and coping process. Moreover, in
the research literature prevail findings telling in support of an assertion
that strong just world belief serves significantly as a self-protective
function.
Quantum-behaved Particle Swarm Optimization for Power Economic Dispatch Problem of Units with Multiple Fuel Option
Authors: Chiang Chao Lung
Published: February 2018

This paper presents a quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization (QPSO) with a multiple updating (MU) for solving the power economic dispatch problem (PEDP) of generators with multiple fuel options (MFOs). The QPSO assists the proposed method efficaciously find and precisely search. The MU helps the proposed method prevent deforming the augmented Lagrange function (ALF) and caused difficultly in searching optimal solution. The proposed approach combines the QPSO and the MU that has benefits of adopting a widespread area of punishment parameters and a small-size population. The proposed algorithm has been demonstrated on a practical ten generating units system; every one unit is composed of two or three fuel changes. The entire fuel price got by the proposed QPSO-MU has been competed with former studies for validating its efficacy. Compared achievements clearly express that the presented method is an effective alternative for resolving PEDP of units with MFOs in the realistic operations of power system.

Authors:   Secondary School No. 26, Novosibirsk, Gaykova Oksana Viktorovna
Published: January 2018

The paper describes the learning and cognitive activity of a school teacher studying the modular course in Developing Teachers Readiness to Teach Controversial Issues of Historical Science in the continuing professional education institution. The delivery of training programs implies the personal and activity-based approach to the academic process. It helps a teacher master a course through perception, comprehension, understanding, synthesis, consolidation and application of the educational information during his training to teach controversial issues of historical science in general education. In the process of learning and cognitive activity, the teachers use such supporting learning tools, manuals and workbooks developed by the author as “Teaching Controversial Issues of Russian History (9th–16th Centuries)”, “Studying Controversial Issues of Russian History (1939–1945) in Grades 10–11 of a Specialized School”, and “Studying Controversial Issues of Historical Science in Grades 10–11 of a Specialized School”.
The attitude towards homelessness in public space: theoretical aspects of a sociological study
Authors:   Novosibirsk State Technical University, Melnikov Mikhail Vasilyevich
Published: January 2018

The number of homeless people is increasing in many countries in recent years. The homelessness is recognized as a global social problem, but some of its facets have been studied inappropriately, in particular, the link between the growth of homelessness in the developed countries of the world and the privatization of public space conducted by the urban government and local business community. This paper deals with the examination of the above-mentioned problem. The author analyzed the results of the sociological study of public spaces available for homeless people and preferred by them, the attitude of homeless people to these spaces, the policies pursued by the urban authorities in relation to the stay of homeless people in public space. The author drew the following conclusions. The desire to limit homelessness in public areas is a part of the overall change in the public space management taking place in the interests of business and government rather than society. The harassment and stigma of homelessness indicate that the use of public space in private interests is condemned if lower social classes are involved. Representations about the relationship of homeless people with the criminal world are largely unreasonable. Their wide dissemination protects public opinion from the critical reaction to crimes committed against homeless people.

Sendo a precipitação pluvial um elemento climático fundamental por ter influência direta na produção agrícola, e por ser um fenômeno periódico, pode ser descrito por meio da análise harmônica. O objetivo deste estudo foi aplicar a técnica da análise harmônica por séries de Fourier para a identificação de componentes cíclicas das variações anuais das precipitações médias de 71 postos meteorológicos distribuídas em seis mesorregiões do Agreste Pernambucano do Nordeste do Brasil. Em seguida, foi aplicada a técnica de análise de agrupamentos na identificação de regiões homogêneas quanto à distribuição pluviométrica para esses mesmos postos meteorológicos e contribuir para estudos de riscos climáticos na agricultura. Para isso, foi avaliada uma série histórica de dados de 33 anos correspondentes ao período de 1984 a maio de 2017, da precipitação média anual de várias estações meteorológicas localizadas nas seis mesorregiões do Agreste Pernambucano, formada pela união de 71 municípios, cedidas pelo Instituto Agronômico de Pernambuco (IPA) e pela Superintendência do Desenvolvimento do Nordeste (SUDENE). Os resultados indicaram um bom desempenho do modelo completo constituído por três ondas senoidais como diagnostico das precipitações médias anuais, tendo-se em conta as características climáticas da região. Destacaram-se os harmônicos: de 16,5 anos com 12% de representatividade, 4,71 e 2,75 anos com 12% e 25%, respectivamente, onde a soma das três ondas explica 49% da variação total das chuvas ao longo dos 33 anos do Agreste Pernambucano. A análise hierárquica de agrupamento permitiu identificar três áreas pluviometricamente homogêneas, localizadas em seis microrregiões representativas da diversidade climática do território do Agreste Meridional Pernambucano.

Published: January 2018

In aquatic ecosystems, the presence of macrophytes offers survival conditions for colonization of macroinvertebrates. This study aimed to characterize the fauna of macroinvertebrates associated with Pistia stratiotes L. (Araceae), in the Capivaras Lagoon, located inside the Baguaçu Ecological Park, in the municipality of Araçatuba, and to relate them to the physical and chemical parameters of the water. The sampling of P. stratiotes was in three points; the samples were sorted and later identified. It was observed a high density of Oligochaeta and Chironomidae larvae in the three points sampled, which may be related to the higher capacity of these organisms tolerate adverse environmental conditions, such as the low concentration of oxygen dissolved in the water obtained in the physical-chemical analyzes. The small lake has a history of pollution and currently suffers from low levels of oxygenation and infestation of P. stratiotes forming a long "rug" enclosed throughout its cover. Considering find solutions to recover the integrity of the environment and,, mainly, to recover the oxygenation of the water, it is suggested more investigations in the area, in several areas and the drainage of the inlet and outlet water channel of the lagoon, beyond the drainage of input and output of water of the lagoon, to improve the rapid circulation, avoiding the establishment of large banks of aquatic macrophytes.

Using electropolymerization based doping for electro-addressable functionalization of a multielectrode array probe for nucleic acid detection
Authors: Sen Mustafa
Published: January 2018

Here, we report a facile method for electro-addressable functionalization of a probe comprising of closely spaced three individually addressable carbon fiber electrodes for detection of nucleic acids. First, a multi electrode array probe comprising three adjacent carbon fiber electrodes was fabricated through pulling a three-barrel glass capillary with a single carbon fiber in each barrel using a micropuller. Second, electropolymerization based doping was used for electro-addressable functionalization of the multi-electrode array probe. To demonstrate that the current strategy works, anti-miR-34a was electrografted on only one of three electrodes by electropolymerization of pyrrole on the specific electrode. A second electrode was coated only with polypyrrole (PPy) and the third was left unmodified. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used for analysis and the results clearly showed charge transfer resistance of the PPy + anti-miR-34a modified electrode increased significantly after hybridization, while charge transfer resistance of the other two electrodes remained almost constant. The results demonstrate that the present strategy has great potential for constructing multiplex nucleic acid micro/nano biosensors for local and in situ detection of multiple nucleic acid molecules such as miRNAs at a time.

From various sources, we know that the science of spermatologii studied at various farm animals. The composition and properties of surface plasma membrane glycolipids determine mitotic phase cell activity and cell division. Demonstrated their exceptional role in cell-cell interactions: in the phenomena of «recognition» of cells to each other, adhesion, differentiation, growth, proliferation, contact inhibition of growth. In this article, we were examined lymph, lymph and blood composition, such as the volume of blood plasma in rams against the backdrop of one of the oldest forms of non-specific defense response – inflammation caused by surgical injury. Experiments were carried out on 14 rams Altai Merino. After a clinical examination of the animals, quickly create lymph venous anastomosis between the thoracic duct and jugular vein on the previously developed modifications N. Myrzakhanova, 1980. To prevent the lymph and blood clotting heparin was injected intravenously. A sample of the lymph and blood for analysis were taken from the thoracic duct and jugular vein. Elactica Kastrati morning before and after the conference. Analysis of morphological composition of blood and bodices, and total protein was carried out by conventional methods in hematology and hematocrit using microcapillary. Studies have shown thatafter elastica Kastrati observed very excited animal. There was an increase in heart rate of 66 to 81 beats per minute and respiration of 16 to 28 breaths per minute. Increased body temperature to the upper limit of normal (before 39.90) and inhibition of motor-evacuation activity of the rumen from 3.5 to 1.2 beats perminute. These changes most evident the first 1-2 hours (Р<0, 01-0,001), and then restored to the original values. Dynamics of white blood cells in the lymph and blood in this phase were determined not only the formation and release them in the lymph and circulatory changes depended on. This is evidenced by the decline in the value of lymph flow and hematocrit. Thus, reduction in the number of blood leukocytes Incoming defined reduction in lymph circulation on the one hand and an increase of the plasma volume with the other. Physiological assessment of the above leads to the conclusion that post-traumatic reaction at elastica Kastrati proceed fully and relatively easily transferred animals.

The physical and mechanical properties of mortar containing copolymer lattices as chemical admixtures were investigated. Copolymer lattices used based on styrene and butyl acrylate were prepared in presence of potassium persulfate/sodium metabisulfite (KPS/NaMBS) as redox initiation system and a coemulsifier that consists of dodecyl benzene sodium sulfonate and polyvinyl alcohol (DBSS/ PVA). The results showed that the addition of copolymer lattices to mortar improves the physical and chemical properties of mortar. However, as the dosage of lattices increases, W/C ratio as well as workability increases while compressive strength and chemically combined water content decrease.

The most common malignancy of testis is seminoma with prognosis that is not always good because of high recurrence rate and death cases. Extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (EMMPRIN) is a glycoprotein adhesion molecules which plays a role in tumor cell invasion and metastasis as evidenced by immunohistochemistry method in several types of tumor cells and tissue that shows the correlation to the clinical progessivity.This study was conducted by observational descriptive analytics with each seven cases of seminoma nonrecurrences and recurrences diagnosed histopathologically from Dr.Hasan Sadikin Hospital, Advent Hospital and St.Borromeus Hospital in Bandung. This study shows that immunoexpression of estrogen receptor beta is not higher in testicular seminoma recurrence compared with nonreccurence. There was no higher imunoexpression of EMMPRIN receptor on testicular seminoma recurrence compared with nonrecurrence; besides, there was no relationship between immunoexspression of estrogen receptor beta and EMMPRIN in testicular seminoma nonrecurrence and recurrence.In conclusion, immunoexpression estrogen receptor beta expressed in all testicular seminoma, so that the patient could be given an alternative therapy and immunoexspression EMMPRIN, cannot be used to predict a recurrence in patients with seminoma who has received complete therapy.                                                        Keywords: EMMPRIN, Estrogen Receptor Beta, Seminoma Testis nonrecurrence and recurrence

Published: January 2018

Lymphadenopathy is enlarged lymph nodes caused by infection, inflammation or malignancy. On HIV positive patients, lymphadenopathy is one of the most common clinical manifestations and it is usually persistent. Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is an effective cytology technique in determining the diagnosis of lymphadenopathy. This study aimed to describe the cytopathology of lymphadenopathy in HIV positive patients. This is a descriptive study of 21 cases of lymphadenopathy in patients with HIV positive who underwent FNAB examination in Anatomical Pathology Department of Dr.Hasan Sadikin Hospital between 2013-2014. Medical data was taken from the patient medical records including age, sex, location, size and cytopathological diagnosis. Cytopathology overview of FNAB specimens were reassessed by 2 pathologists. In this study, lymphadenopathy in HIV positive patients were mainly found in men (n = 15.71%) with an average age between 20-30 years. The most frequent location was the neck (n = 20.95.2%). The lymph nodes size were found between 0.5-3 cm. Most diagnosis was tuberculous lymphadenitis (n = 15.71%) with the most common cytology feature was granulomatous lymphadenitis (n = 5.33.3%) and suppurative lymphadenitis (n = 5.33.3%). FNAB examination in lymphadenopathy is very helpful to identify the cause of infection in HIV positive patients. Keywords: FNAB, HIV, lymphadenopathy, cytopathology

Self-Directed Learning (SDL) is an important skill that must be achieved by medical students.The aim of this study is to identify the level of self-motivation and SDL readiness in the medicalstudents as well as to identify factors affecting SDL. This is is a mixed method research,involving first-year and clinical year medical students. A quantitative research is conducted bydistributing self-motivation (MSLQ) and SDL questionnaire (SDLRS). A total sampling isapplied to select the respondents. Furthermore, focus group discussion (FGD) on students andtutors/preceptors is carried out. Informants are chosen by purposive sampling method. Thisresearch reveals that most of medical students have a good level of self-motivation but a lowlevel of SDL readiness. Nevertheless, the mean scores of SDL readiness in both groups showsno significant differences. The research also identifies four major factors affecting the SDLreadiness, namely the students’ characteristics, learning process, the role of tutors/preceptorsand supporting facilities for learning. There is no significant difference between SDL readinessof the first-year and clinical year of medical students. Unprepared students’ characteristics,sub-optimal learning process, unsupported role of tutors/preceptors and inadequate learningresources are found to be the mayor factors influencing SDL readiness.Keywords: self-directed learning readiness; self-motivation; problem-based learning

Elderly people are a group of people with age of 60 and above. Studies in United States showed one-third of elderly people experienced fall in their houses and one-forty of them need bedrest in hospital. Falling can cause physical and mental injury. Physical injury manifests as fracture, hematoma, bruises, and dislocation, and mental injury manifests as lack of self esteem. This study aimed to examine the relation between age and gender on risk of fall on elderly people. This is a cross-sectional analytical study involving 23 elderly people from Tulus Kasih Elderly Home that met the inclusion criteria. Risk of fall were checked with Timed Up and Go Test. The data acquired were analyzed with chi-square with α = 0,05. As results, age significantly affected risk of fall (p=0.019) but gender did not (p=0.265). We concluded the risk of falling is increased with age and unaffected by gender.Keywords : age, gender, risk of fall, timed up and go test

Published: February 2018

Let Z be a complete set of Sylow subgroups of a ï¬nite group G, that is, for each prime p dividing the order of G, Z contains exactly one and only one Sylow p-subgroup of G, say Gp. Let C be a nonempty subset of G. A subgroup H of G is said to be C-Z-permutable (conjugateZ-permutable) subgroup of G if there exists some x âˆˆ C such that HxGp = GpHx, for all Gp âˆˆ Z. We investigate the structure of the ï¬nite group G under the assumption that certain subgroups of prime power orders of G are C-Z-permutable subgroups of G.

Authors: Nassir Shokry Faaz
Published: January 2018

Background: To assess the importance of Holter monitoring in evaluation of non-specific symptoms (like presyncope, dizziness, palpitations, syncope, etc.).

Patients and Methods: This is an observational , prospective descriptive study which was conducted at Shaheed Al-Mihrab cardiac centre at Babylon City - Iraq in which 100 patients referred from  the consultation department for the  assessment  of non-specific compliants were included in this study . Holter monitoring was done for all patients after initial evaluation. Holter monitoring was accomplished using GE Holter system with two channels and five leads, attached to the anterior chest wall. The recorder was attached to a strap, which was attached to the patient shoulder. The recording was started in the morning at hospital working hours and the patient was allowed to go home and to resume his normal activities. He was advised to maintain his activity and asked to return  back at the same time next day.

Results: 87% of patients have less than 10% premature ventricular ectopics as an isolated event while 90% of the patients have Supraventricular arrythmias less than 10% as isolated events. The mean minimum heart rate was 47 , mean maximum heart rate was 117 and mean average heart rate was 65 . 18 % of patients have ST segment Shift  in which 4% were ST-segment elevation and 14% were ST segment depressions.

Conclusion: Holter monitoring was found to have no important role for the early diagnosis of arrhythmias or ischaemia as a cause of compliant in patients with non-specific symptoms

Authors: Villamizar Erika N. , Ríos Carlos A. , Castillo John J.
Published: January 2018

This paper present the fabrication and electrochemical stud-ies of a screen-printed graphene electrode (SPGE) modified with Roy-al palm tree peroxidase (RPTP) in combination with chitosan (CS) and cross-linking of glutaraldehyde (GA) for detection of hydrogen perox-ide. Cyclic voltammograms in the presence of potassium ferrocyanide ([Fe(CN)6]3-/4-) as a redox species demonstrated an increasing of 50mA evidenced by the electron transfer process of SPGE modified with CS-GA-RPTP. The graphene modified electrode exhibits excellent electrocatalytic activity to the reduction of H2O2, with a linear response in the 100 mM to 5 mM concentration range and a detection limit of 87 mM. The new sensor based on the modification of graphene electrode with the high stable RPTP will provide a potential amperometric detection system for determination of H2O2 in real samples with some biomedical or environmental importance.
