Looking at the Theme of Poverty in Contemporary Turkish Painting Through Rural and Urban Perspectives: Samples from Neşet Günal and Neş’e Erdok
Authors: KÜÇÜKŞEN ÖNER Ferhunde , GENÇ Süreyya
Published: January 2019

Beyond being a term in economics, poverty is a reality with which individuals and societies try to come up by developing some methods and which also determines their life styles. Through artistic works, the term poverty can be converted either into a reality which reflects people and their living conditions or into a theme to do a social criticism. She has made drawings of poor people in her paintings such as Konfeksiyon İşçisi (A Worker in Clothing Industry), Berber Çırağı (Apprentice in Barber Shop), Plastik Çiçek Satıcısı (Seller of Plastic Flowers), Cikletçi (Gum Seller), Saltanat (Sultanate), Ağbi Gazete (Brother Newspaper). These paintings exhibit part of the urban life. In this vein, Neş’e Erdok uncovers this difference by presenting a view of the city in which people of different statues and classes live together. This study deals with how the theme of poverty in terms of rural and urban regions is treated in Turkish painting through the perspectives of Neşet Günal and Neş’e Erdok.
Narratives of Sri Lankan Displaced Tamils Living in Welfare Centres in Jaffna, Sri Lanka
Authors: Chattoraj Diotima
Published: January 2019

This article addresses the kind of attachment that the Sri Lankan Tamil IDPs, refugeed in the welfare centers of Jaffna, have to their Ur/homes in the post-war era. This article is to explore, how they describe the meaning of attachment to their Ur even after two decades of displacement and how this is related to the negotiations with displacement. To understand this relationship, I used the concept of attachment to analyze my collected data. The qualitative materials are drawn from the data collected during my ethnographic field-visit in Jaffna in February-March 2013. The focus is on narrative interviews with IDPs staying at the welfare centers in Jaffna. This article discusses in detail the narrative of an IDP who spoke on behalf of several others who were in the same situation and staying at the center since the early 1990s. From his narrative, I show their intense sense of attachment not only to their Urbut also to the memories and emotions which are related to their Ur. I argue that the meaning of Urand attachment to it, has remained unchanged for this group of population in Jaffna due to socio-economic reasons and aspirations to a good life.
Kendari Port Development: The Meeting Point of Shipping and Trade Route in East Coast of Sulawesi, 1831-1945
Authors: Noor M. Mulki Mulyadi
Published: January 2019

This article analyses the ups and downs of Kendari port development since 1831 until Japanese occupation ended in Indonesia. This study tries to place Kendari port as the main port with areas that become the link of traditional and modern trade routes at the east coast of Sulawesi. Moreover, Kendari has become Collecting Center port since the 16th century, therefore, the connectivity between Kendari port and other regions is quite close. This study used primary source in the form of official record of the colonial government and secondary source in the form of publication related to the topic of the study. The study found that traditionally the trade relation of Kendari port with other regions originated from two routes, namely Wawonii island and Bokori island, while in the colonial period the role of the Dutch government made Kendari as a modern port so that the port developed rapidly as one of the links for KPM shipping and trade and Bugis traders who were still active until the 20th century. This role continued in Japan, but it was no longer a trading port, but as a Japanese naval base.
Roles of the Crisis Management Initiative (CMI) in Aceh’s Reconciliation to Strengthen Indonesia’s National Integration After Tsunami in 2005
Authors: Mujiburrahman Mujiburrahman
Published: January 2019

Crisis Management Initiative (CMI) is a National Government Organization that focuses on advocacy for sustainable security and conflict resolution. This organization was founded in 2000 by Martti Ahtisaari. Ge was the former president of Finland in 1994-2000. CMI was asked to facilitate negotiation between the Indonesian government and GAM (Free Aceh Movement), through personal contact between Farid Husain and Juha Christensen. Aceh conflict was a disintegration-oriented-conflict, so it was potential to threaten Indonesia’s sovereignty.This research used the historical method with heuristic, criticism or verification, interpretation, and historiography stages. The primary sources of data on this research were information in the media, both printed and electronic. Besides, this research also examined or reviewed the literary references that were related and relevant to the research topic. The study was to reveal how the background of CMI's involvement in Aceh peace in 2005, and how the strategic roles of CMI in resolving conflicts until the realization of Aceh peace in 2005 for Aceh remained a part of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI).The role of CMI as a reputable international institution and getting the trust of both parties, was capable of providing intervention to the conflicting parties so that its role became very strategic in mediating the conflict. The success of CMI was seen from the negotiation held in Helsinki Finland, resulting in the execution of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on August 15, 2005, as a peace agreement. After the signing of the Helsinki MoU, armed conflict stopped, and the social lives were back to normal, and the development process could resume usually.
Rzeźbiarz i filozof. Constantin Brâncuşi w interpretacjach Constantina Noiki
Authors: Zawadzki Andrzej
Published: January 2019

The article Sculptor and philosopher deals with the Romanian thinker Constantin Noica’s interpretations of Constantin Brâncuşi’s work. These interpretations are presented with regard to Noica’s philosophical concepts, in particular his reflections on Romanian culture and the sense of being manifested within it. Of fundamental importance in his interpretations is the category of becoming within being – the most important idea developed by Noica and which he applied in many fields of philosophy.
Wyjście z laboratorium
Authors: Momro Jakub
Published: January 2019

The article is a critical insight into Ryszard Nycz’s theoretical and antropological project included in his book, Culture as a Verb. Sounding out New Humanities. The fundamental argument is based on the archeology of Nyczean concepts, and their philosophical and socio-political implications. The analytical process focuses on three points. Firstly, the issue is the non-reducing meaning of the cultural experiment, which is the foundation of the “new” epistemology. Secondly, the question is the new idea of temporality, historicity, and relations between nature and culture. Thirdly, the focus is on the concept of praxis.

Z ducha muzyki? Czternaście wariacji o Mieście: partyturze i innych „wierszach nadsłownych” Mariana Grześczaka
Authors: Bogalecki Piotr
Published: January 2019

The article covers wiersze-nadsłowne [“supra-verbal” poems] by Marian Grześczak written in the period of 1959–1963, which was one of the first specimens of concrete poetry in Poland. The main part comprises an elaborate analysis of a work titled Miasto: partytura [City: score] (previously called: Miasto, parodia [City, parody]). The text becomes a springboard for the presentation of original literary theoretical ideas concerning the links between the literary text and musical notation, and in doing so refers to the findings of authors such as G. Agamben and J. Derrida, as well as G. Deleuze and F. Guattari, but predominantly to Grześczak’s own commentaries, as one of the first Polish commentators of the international concrete poetry movement. The article also mentions sixteen unpublished poems, which were found in an archive of visual poems by Grześczak, whose analysis provides a basis for rejecting the notion pervading relevant literature of the “sporadic” and “insignificant” character of the poet’s concrete works. Thus, the article is an attempt at literary historical revision and a contribution to the re-interpretation of the history of concrete and experimental poetry in Poland.
Nieprzezroczystość ekfrazy: reprezentowanie, zapośredniczanie i przekład w opisach artefaktów
Authors: Słodczyk Rozalia
Published: January 2019

The article concentrates on the non-transparency of ekphrasis, including the relevance - in the case of a full, in-depth analysis of particular ekphrasis - not only of the description but also of the artefact itself. The text reflects upon subjects rarely dealt with in ekphrasis research, such as on the meaning and relations of the concepts ‘presentation’ and ‘representation’. There is a focus on the question of multi-layered mediation, which is related to this discourse figure: through language, through the viewer’s perspective who writes about the work, through the reader themself, and also, or perhaps first and foremost, through the work itself. This all results in ekphrasis being treated as a representation of representation. This also gives rise to thoughts on the problem of translating the visual system to verbal and the issues related to this.

Planned Solvency III Regulation: Should It Be Adopted Outside the European Union?
Authors: Zweifel Peter
Published: January 2019

Several countries outside the European Union consider adopting its solvency regulation for their insurance industries. However, Solvency I and (to a lesser extent) Solvency II were found to run the risk of inducing more rather than less risk-taking by insurers (Zweifel, Peter. 2014. “Solvency Regulation of Insurers: A Regulatory Failure?” Journal of Insurance Issues 37 (2): 135–157.). Companies are led to neglect parameters that link them to developments in the capital market when determining their endogenous perceived efficiency frontier (EPEF), causing it to become steeper. Given homothetic risk preferences, senior management is predicted to opt for increased rather than reduced volatility. By way of contrast, if modeled after Basel III for banks, planned Solvency III will ask insurers to take developments in the capital market into account in their formulation of business strategies designed to ensure solvency (Principle 5 of Basel III). In addition, the stipulated decrease in their leverage ratio is shown to reduce the slope of the EPEF for insurers with little solvency capital. Contrary to its predecessors, Solvency III is therefore predicted to make insurers take on less risk, which argues for its for adoption beyond the European Union if properly implemented.
Transmission Performance Comparison of 16*100 Gbps Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexed Long Haul Optical Networks at Different Advance Modulation Formats under the Influence of Nonlinear Impairments
Authors: Ali Farman , Khan Yousaf , Shafique Qureshi Shahryar
Published: January 2019

Higher spectral efficiency and data rate per channel are the most cost-effective approaches to meet the exponential demand of data traffic in optical fiber network communication system. In this paper, diverse modulation formats are analyzed for Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexed system at 100 Gbps * 16=1600 Gbps data rates. The performance analysis of proffered system for Non-Return to Zero, Return to Zero, Carrier- Suppressed Return to Zero and Duo binary RZ with duty cycle 0.5 to 0.7 ranges like modulation formats are considered to find optimum modulation format for a 100 Gbps bit rate per channel optical fiber transmission network system. The simulations are analyzed for different values of input power, length of fiber, nonlinear refractive index, nonlinear dispersion and nonlinear effective area for all above mentioned modulation formats with spacing 100 to 250 GHz. to evaluate the effect of modulation format Fiber Bragg Gratting, optical fiber amplifier and Dispersion Compensation Fiber dispersion compensation techniques are enacted on this proposed optical network system.

Development of heavy oil upgrading technologies in China
Authors: Shi Quan , Zhao Suoqi , Zhou Yasong , Gao Jinsen , Xu Chunming
Published: January 2019

Heavy oils have high viscosity, density, and Conradson carbon residue and high contents of sulfur, nitrogen, oxygen, nickel, and vanadium, as well as asphaltenes, which can cause problems for producers, leading to catalyst deactivation and fouling and plugging of tubing, pipes, valves, and reactor flow lines. Heavy oil upgrading can be classified into carbon rejection and hydrogen addition processes, mainly including four technologies: (1) the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) process, which catalytically converts heavy oil into light fractions, like liquid petroleum gas, naphtha, and light cycle oil; (2) the hydro-processing process, which catalytically converts heavy oil to high-quality feedstock for FCC and hydrocracking processes under the hydrogen atmosphere without coke formation; (3) the coking process, which thermally converts heavy oil into light liquid fractions and large amounts of coke; and (4) the solvent deasphalting process, which fractionates distillation resid to provide feedstock for residue FCC, such as the residue oil solvent extraction. This paper reviews the progress on basic research of heavy oil chemistry and processing technology developments in China. Heavy oils were comprehensively characterized by the supercritical fluid extraction and fractionation technology and high-resolution mass spectrometry. The FCC process for maximizing iso-paraffin, new residue hydroprocessing technologies, progress in coking process, and a new process – the Supercritical Fluid Selective Extraction Asphaltene Technology – were discussed. As an emerging and promising research area, molecular management techniques were prospected, as well as a new concept of coupling the SELEX-Asp with the conventional heavy oil upgrading processes.

The Practices and Networks of Female Yiguan Dao Members in Buddhist Thailand
Authors: Yu-Sheng Lin
Published: January 2019

Yiguan Dao’s similarity to Buddhism is often considered the reason for its expansion in Thailand and its attraction of not only ethnic Chinese members, but also Thai members. However, the teachings, practices, and networks of female Yiguan Dao members in Thailand are exemplary of Yiguan Dao’s discontinuities with established Buddhism in Thailand. In Thai Theravāda Buddhism, women’s full ordination as bhikkhunīs is not recognized by the authorities and much of the public, and women are considered subordinate to men in the religious dimension. Although certain ideas and practices regarding the reform of women’s status in Thai Buddhism have made advances, most reforms continue to face difficulties under the restrictions of the Thai Buddhist establishment. Although some sexist elements exist in its teachings, Yiguan Dao, a new religious movement in modern Thailand existing outside the framework of Buddhism, offers its female members a competitive alternative to women’s religious equality and geographic mobility in the pluralistic Thai religious marketplace.

Survival and Impairment of Extremely Premature Infants: A Meta-analysis
Authors: Myrhaug Hilde Tinderholt , Brurberg Kjetil Gundro , Hov Laila , Markestad Trond
Published: January 2019

CONTEXT:

Survival of infants born at the limit of viability varies between high-income countries.

OBJECTIVE:

To summarize the prognosis of survival and risk of impairment for infants born at 22 + 0/7 weeks’ to 27 + 6/7 weeks’ gestational age (GA) in high-income countries.

DATA SOURCES:

We searched 9 databases for cohort studies published between 2000 and 2017 in which researchers reported on survival or neurodevelopmental outcomes.

STUDY SELECTION:

GA was based on ultrasound results, the last menstrual period, or a combination of both, and neurodevelopmental outcomes were measured by using the Bayley Scales of Infant Development II or III at 18 to 36 months of age.

DATA EXTRACTION:

Two reviewers independently extracted data and assessed the risk of bias and quality of evidence.

RESULTS:

Sixty-five studies were included. Mean survival rates increased from near 0% of all births, 7.3% of live births, and 24.1% of infants admitted to intensive care at 22 weeks’ GA to 82.1%, 90.1%, and 90.2% at 27 weeks’ GA, respectively. For the survivors, the rates of severe impairment decreased from 36.3% to 19.1% for 22 to 24 weeks’ GA and from 14.0% to 4.2% for 25 to 27 weeks’ GA. The mean chance of survival without impairment for infants born alive increased from 1.2% to 9.3% for 22 to 24 weeks’ GA and from 40.6% to 64.2% for 25 to 27 weeks’ GA.

LIMITATIONS:

The confidence in these estimates ranged from high to very low.

CONCLUSIONS:

Survival without impairment was substantially lower for children born at <25 weeks’ GA than for those born later.
Atenção e Cognição em Pedro de João Olivi
Authors: Cenci Marcio Paulo
Published: January 2019

Pedro de João Olivi (1247/8-1298) sustenta que a atenção intencional tem de ser posta como a condição para o desempenho ativo do ato cognitivo perceptual. A intencionalidade é um componente natural da apreensão sensorial. Em Olivi, ela requer que a alma tenha uma natureza ativa, pois o desempenho intencional é precípuo à alma e é independente de elementos representacionais intermediários, como as species. Olivi não reduz o ato cognitivo ao modo de ação ativo ou passivo, mas adiciona a causa terminativa como uma função do objeto na produção do ato. A terminação, então, é crucial para mostrar como a atenção cognitiva é classificada como intencional. Por fim, este artigo sustenta que a atenção intencional como a condição pré-experiencial garante o acesso imediato aos objetos do mundo exterior.
¿Una teoría de las cinco sustancias em Marsilio Ficino?
Authors: Rodriguez Teresa
Published: January 2019

En este texto se explora la llamada teoría de las cinco sustancias que ha caracterizado la interpretación de la ontología ficiniana desde que Kristeller publicó su libro El pensamiento filosófico de Marsilio Ficino. Se busca cuestionar su pertinencia a partir de la exploración del primer capítulo del Libro I de la Teología Platónica con el fin de evidenciar que no es claro que las cinco hipóstasis o grados de lo real puedan ser identificadas con el término “sustancia” en el trabajo de Ficino. A partir de la confrontación de algunos pasajes de su Comentario al Parménides se propone que es más adecuado calificar como “sustancia” a las tres primeras hipóstasis y que, por tanto, la interpretación tradicional de la ontología ficiniana no es exacta.

O papel de Tomás de Aquino no universo “científico” do século XIII
Authors: Almeida Rogério Miranda de
Published: January 2019

Estas reflexões têm como finalidade mostrar as aporias e dificuldades que afetaram, de maneira essencial, as diferentes tentativas de se erigir uma “ciência da religião” e, mais especificamente, de se lerem “cientificamente” os dados da fé, ou da revelação. Esta é a razão pela qual damos uma atenção especial ao século XIII e, principalmente, ao papel de Tomás de Aquino, quando se intensificaram de maneira mais explícita as relações, e os conflitos, entre a ciência, a filosofia e a teologia. Certo, a ciência de que aqui tratamos é aquela oriunda de Platão – sob a forma da episteme – que marcou toda a tradição do pensamento cristão e culminou no século XIII com a filosofia de Aristóteles. Assim, fez-se necessário percorrer as vicissitudes que, a partir de Platão, pontilharam a história deste conceito e que se acirram a partir do século XII e, principalmente, ao longo do século XIII. A questão, pois, que permanece em suspenso é a de saber se é possível fundar científica e filosoficamente a religião em geral e a teologia em particular.
O Crepúsculo da Realidade e a Ironia Melancólica do Sucesso Brilhante e Duradouro: Reflexões sobre os Interpretantes Emocionais e Lógicos nos Modos peircianos de Fixação das Crenças
Authors: Ibri Ivo Assad
Published: January 2019

A Fixação da Crença (1877) é, provavelmente, um dos mais famosos ensaios entre todos publicados por Charles S. Peirce (1839-1914) em sua vida. Neste ensaio, Peirce propôs quatro métodos segundo os quais as crenças humanas podem se tornar fixas, a saber, tenacidade, autoridade, a priori e científica. Todavia, considero que a riqueza e originalidade deste ensaio ainda não foram suficientemente exploradas, principalmente quando fazemos uso dos conceitos e vocabulário da Semiótica para uma análise mais profunda das consequências pragmáticas desses métodos de fixação. Assim, algumas das questões seguintes podem ser formuladas: quais modos de cognição ou, em outras palavras, quais interpretantes lógicos estão ligados a essas crenças? Que tipo de conjecturas sobre os interpretantes emocionais pode ser proposto, levando em conta sua possível consideração pela psicanálise? Que tipo de ação cada uma suscita, a partir de seu lado externo que permite inferir a natureza geral da respectiva crença com seu lado interno? Essas questões, supostamente, abririam um novo e interessante nível especulativo para entender os quatro tipos de crença e, consequentemente, dos hábitos associados a cada um deles. Para lidar com essas questões, pretendo utilizar o conceito de dialogia semiótica como um processo que oferece continuidade para formas lógicas gerais capazes de comunicação e crescimento. Será ressaltado que, quando essa continuidade for bloqueada ou truncada, as crenças dogmáticas, então, surgirão.

The emergence of the phenomenon regarding there are still many public complaints about public service maladministration within the Bali Provincial Government and the poor assessment of the performance of the State Civil Apparatus in the Bali Provincial Government. The importance of intelligence, knowledge and work experience of an employee greatly determines the quality of the performance produced. Additional income for employees as an additional income obtained by employees is a policy to improve the quality of performance of the state civil apparatus. The method of data collection in this research is a survey method with questionnaire techniques. The sample in this research were 400 employees of the state civil apparatus in the Regional Organizations of Bali Province. The technical analysis of the data used is the Analysis of Multiple Linear Regression.

The results of the research show that intelligence influences the performance of the state civil apparatus, knowledge influences the performance of the state civil apparatus, work experience influences the performance of the state civil apparatus, and additional employee income influences the performance of the state civil apparatus. Additional employee income is the most influential variable on the performance of the state civil apparatus compared to other independent variables.
Macroeconomic Indicators and Economic Performance in Selected Sub Sahara African Countries: Panel Generalized Method of Moment Approach
Authors: Ojo Adejumo Musibau , S.T Ogunbunmi
Published: January 2019

This study empirically examined the effect of macroeconomic indicators on economic performance of selected sub Sahara African Countries between 1990 and 2017. The study employed four variables: GDP growth rate, Inflation rate, Monetary policy rate and Exchange rate and panel unit root test using two criteria to test for stationarity, panel cointegration test was also conducted to test for long run cointegration between the variables employed and Generalized Method of Moment method of estimation was employed to check the relationships between the variables. The results of the panel unit root test result from the LLC and IPS methods shows that the order of integrations mixed with some of the variables being stationary at levels (GDPgr and INFL) and first difference (MPR and EXHR) at the same time.  The result of Pedroni cointegration test indicated the bivariate long-run cointegration equation between the variables employed. The GMM result revealed that all explanatory variables accounted for 23% variation of Economic performance in SSA. However, the study made the following policy implications: More balanced but flexible approach towards the MPR should be embraced to allow more room for impressive economic growth in these countries. Macroeconomic policy decision is not enough to stimulate growth in the economy of any nation. The interplay of fiscal instruments and monetary instruments backed with political will of the government on genuine implementation of well-thought out programmes can be employed as the  antidote to ensure that the macroeconomic objectives are achieved both in the short and long-run.
The Influence of Implant Shape on Primary Stability of Implants With a Thread Cutting and Forming Design: An Ex Vivo Study
Authors: Dayan Cagatay , Geckili Onur , Bural Canan
Published: January 2019

The design of an implant has a great effect on primary stability. The purpose of this study was to determine the differences in primary stability between straight and tapered Neoss ProActive implants in type I and type III bones using resonance frequency analysis (RFA) and electronic percussive testing (EPT) methods. Fresh cow vertebrae and pelvis were used as models of type III and type i bone, respectively. Implants of 2 different designs—straight and tapered Neoss ProActive implants with a thread cutting and forming (TCF) design, both 3.5-mm wide and 11-mm long—were placed in both types of bone (n = 60). The primary stability of all implants was measured by an experienced clinician blinded to the study protocol using the EPT and RFA devices. No statistically significant difference was found between the implant stability quotients and the percussive test values of straight and tapered implants in either bone type. Within the limitations of this ex vivo study, it may be concluded that the shape of an implant with a TCF design does not affect primary stability.
Sermon Feedback as Facework: Task and Identity Goals in Mentoring Homiletical Theologians
Authors: Schnasa Jacobsen David
Published: January 2019

The problem of in-class sermon feedback has vexed the teaching and learning of preaching for some time. For too long, however, the problem has been understood in more or less personal terms insofar as it tries to facilitate an environment where task mastery becomes psychologically feasible for students in a stressful feedback situation. This article argues that the problem of sermon feedback is actually more complex in that it is also tied to privilege, power dynamics, and the multiple identities of the pluralistic classroom and cultural identities in churches. The use of facework theory in communication studies offers an alternative by placing task mastery in relation to the tending to identities in the room. Here the work of Jeff Kerssen-Griep et al. posits a compelling vision for dealing with an analogous face-threatening situation of speech feedback in the college classroom that includes both positive (belonging, competency) and negative (autonomy) facework and thus locates task mastery in relation to tending to identities in a more self-reflective manner. In the process, a more mentoring-type relation between teacher and student is envisioned, one that might even build on Dale Andrews’ notion of apprenticeship in preaching education. The article concludes with homiletical-theological reflections about the relationship of face/Face and promise in reflecting on gospel in the task of teaching and learning preaching.

Aim.To estimate the frequency and expressiveness of atherosclerotic lesions of the transplant coronary arteries of the determined by an angiographic method.

Materials and methods.Coronary angiography was executed to 518 recipients of heart aged from 10 till 72 years (average 56,92 ± 12,1) within the first week after transplantation of heart (a median 6; 3–42 days). Men – 466, women – 52. Initial status of recipients: UNOS 1A – 217 of people, UNOS 1B – 89 of people, UNOS 2 – 212 people. Included the following criteria of the donor in the analysis: sex, age, cause of brain death.

Results.Angiographic signs of atherosclerotic lesions of coronary arteries are discovered in 166 cases, in 65 cases defined as significant stenosis which demanded performance of the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). In 352 cases symptoms of atherosclerosis are not revealed (group of comparison). At recipients in the status UNOS 1A and UNOS 1B discovered the transmission of atherosclerosis (TA) more often, than recipients in the status UNOS 2 (54% and 36%, respectively). Age of donors in group with transmission of atherosclerosis was 50,2 ± 0,7 years, and in group of comparison – 41 ± 0,6 years (r = 0,0005). Range of donors age in groups did not differ and made 18–66 years for group of comparison and 20–67 years for group with transmission of atherosclerosis, but in subgroup of PCI made 31–67 years. Gender influence on the frequency of transmission of coronary atherosclerosis it is not revealed. Acute violation of brain blood circulation as the cause of brain death was observed in 76% of cases at TA group and 61% in group of comparison.

Conclusion.The age of the donor and acute violation of brain blood circulation are the factors associations with probability of transmission of coronary atherosclerosis, however it is important to consider the status of the recipient.

Aim.Clinical and functional evaluation of the implantation of autologous bone marrow cells treated with erythropoietin in laser channels during coronary bypass grafting in patients with end-stage coronary lesion.

Materials and methods.60 patients with coronary artery disease with diffuse and (or) distal right coronary artery disease were randomized into two groups: patients of group 1 (n = 30) underwent coronary bypass grafting, implantation of autologous bone marrow cells treated with erythropoietin in laser channels, patients of the 2nd group (n = 30) were operated with coronary bypass grafting of the left coronary artery system. Assessment of the clinical status, myocardial perfusion and contractility was performed initially, 6 months after the operation.

Results.Six months after the operation, there was a more pronounced decrease in angina pectoris (CCS) in the main group compared to the control group, also we revealed a 6-minute walk test scores improvement. Based on two-stage scintigraphy (Tc99) in the main group before the surgical treatment, a rest perfusion defect was 8.5% [3.5, 18.5], a stress-induced perfusion defect – 7.0% [6.0, 12, 3]. In the control group, the rest defect was 9.1% [5.6, 12.4], the stress-induced perfusion defect was 7.3% [6.1, 8.7]. 6 months after surgery rest perfusion defect at the indirect revascularization group was 6.0% [2.5, 16.5] (p = 0.008), a stress-induced defect was 4.0% [1.5, 6.3] (p = 0.05). In the control group, the rest defect was 8.7% [5.3, 10.3], the stress-induced perfusion defect was 6.8% [5.3, 9.1] (p = 0.21). The results of scintigraphy with MIBG showed a left ventricle innervation defect (PID) significant decrease in the main group: initially 15.4% [14.2, 16.3], after 6 months 11.7% [9.3, 13, 2] (p = 0.045). In the control group, there was an unreliable decrease in PID: initially 14.3% [10.2, 17.3], after 6 months 13.8% [9.1, 14.2] (p = 0.14).

Conclusion.Our preliminary results revealed more pronounced effect of the new indirect revascularization method expressed as in myocardial perfusion improve, myocardial sympathetic innervation restoration and clinical status improvement in comparison with control group.
Multi-scale Hierarchical Residual Network for Dense Captioning

Published: January 2019

Recent research on dense captioning based on the recurrent neural network and the convolutional neural network has made a great progress. However, mapping from an image feature space to a description space is a nonlinear and multimodel task, which makes it difficult for the current methods to get accurate results. In this paper, we put forward a novel approach for dense captioning based on hourglass-structured residual learning. Discriminant feature maps are obtained by incorporating dense connected networks and residual learning in our model. Finally, the performance of the approach on the Visual Genome V1.0 dataset and the region labelled MS-COCO (Microsoft Common Objects in Context) dataset are demonstrated. The experimental results have shown that our approach outperforms most current methods.
