Published: April 2019

Los sistemas embebidos de hardware libre (OSHW, Open Source Hardware) han sido ampliamente aplicados en la enseñanza de sistemas microprocesados; la edición, compilación y programación de aplicaciones para OSHW se realizan a través de entornos de desarrollo integrado (IDEs, Integrated Development Environments). Este artículo presenta una metodología para evaluar la usabilidad de IDEs de OSHW y se centra en la plataforma de Arduino por ser una de las más utilizadas hoy en día en la academia; conocer qué tan fácil y confortable es aprender a programar microcontroladores en Arduino es un objetivo colateral pero de igual importancia. La principal contribución de este trabajo consiste en utilizar enfoques de efectividad, eficiencia y satisfacción del usuario para la evaluación de usabilidad de IDEs de programación de OSHW. La evaluación se centra en la realización de programas con complejidad dentro de una escala ascendente. La efectividad se determina en relación al cumplimiento satisfactorio de tareas; la eficiencia se evalúa en base al tiempo empleado para el desarrollo de programas. El grado de satisfacción del usuario se diagnostica usando encuestas de escala de usabilidad del sistema y de facilidad de uso. Los resultados asociados muestran que la efectividad y eficiencia del usuario utilizando el IDE dependen de la complejidad de las tareas y que el manejo de la interfaz es fácil y cómodo.

Failed to thrive decide from the result of anthropometric measurement. Failed to thrive happened when the result of measuring indicate a problem. If the problem showed in two or more index, it is called CIAF. In Indonesia one of two children had CIAF (51,4 %). Cities in Indonesia use only a single index of anthropometry so the data of CIAF is not available. Objective: the objective of the study was to find the association of food diversity with the incidence of CIAF. Method: cross – sectional design applied in this study with the number of sample were 267 children aged 2 – 5 years. Result: there were 23,6% children suffered from CIAF and generally consume the same type of food everyday. There was a significant association between diversity in main food consumption with the incidence of CIAF (p = 0,034). It means children who consume diversity main food everyday protected from CIAF compared to the children who eat the same main food each day (OR = 2). Conclusion: main food diversity prevents the children from CIAF. The mother expected to provide diversity source for the main dishes everyday (other than rice) such as bread or potato. For the health institutions, suggested to increase the education about the variaty of food processing towards so that the children could escape from the boredom.

Published: April 2019

Apart from the time-proven, gold standard treatment of many topical conditions with corticosteroids, the phobia of using topical corticosteroids (TCs) is a phenomenon unveiled among groups of patients, parents, as well as health professionals. Health professionals’ attitude to TCs could have a significant impact on the trend of TCs-phobia among patients. Therefore, it is essential to address this issue as TCs-phobia is something which could also have important implications in medication adherence and compliance to prescribed treatment. Bearing in mind that no survey had been conducted to investigate this matter in Republic of Macedonia (RM), a self-completed questionnaire has been created to assess attitudes and their prevalence associated with TCs-phobia among patients and health professionals with aim to describe the attitude, explore the reasons behind revealed phenomenon and define directions for future interventions needed to advance the healthcare in this field. Our findings show that the TCs-phobia is present among surveyed population (21.6 and 34.22% of all responders expressed negative attitudes or fear of TCs use, respectively). It is also concluded that ~27% of patients on TCs-therapy admitted that they feared of using the medication. However, there is a higher frequency of negative attitudes regarding the use of TCs among the health professionals (~39%) than among patients, where the TCs-phobia is more prominent among non-dermatologists than dermatologists. Moreover, negative attitude and fear of TCs use is universal among paediatricians (73.91%). Portrayed interventions needed to identify and manage the TCs-phobia can lead to improvement of adherence and predicted responsiveness of TCs-therapy.

Caffeine is odorless, bitter taste substance which can be naturally found in coffee, cocoa, tea leaves, and is intentionally added in food and pharmaceutical products. It can also be found in surface water in small concentrations where is often used as an excellent indicator of human waste. The aim of the work is determination of caffeine content in food, beverages, analgesics and surface water using solidphase extraction followed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Caffeine content was determined in 12 commercial tea and coffee products, non-alcoholic energy drinks and food, 5 combined preparations of analgesics and the Danube samples collected from
7 representative locations. The results showed that caffeine content in food ranged 5,6-158 mg/100 g, tea samples 24,71-30,81 mg/100 ml, coffee samples 1328-3594 mg/100 g, energy drinks 9,69-30,79 mg/100 ml and in the Danube samples 15,91-306,12 ng/l. Caffeine content in combined commercial formulations of non-narcotic analgesics of all brands did meet specifications. The data suggested that the proposed HPLC method can be used for routine determination and control of caffeine content in different matrices.

CRISPR CUREs: Running with Molecular Scissors in the Classroom
Authors: R Siniscalco Emily , Lo Te-Wen
Published: April 2019

As undergraduates, science students receive the educational foundation required for their future STEM careers. They build their knowledge base of basic science concepts, as well as learn hands-on skills that will help them in their future fields [1,2]. Often, this education is transmitted through lectures and teaching labs, where students play a passive role. However, undergraduate research experiences can serve as a more enriching alternative to such methods by combining biological concepts with laboratory skills in the context of novel scientific discovery [1,3]. Due to this, many undergraduate courses are incorporating discovery-based research into their curricula.
Neuro Effects of Opioids on the Human Brain
Authors: Griffith Clairmont , La France Bernice
Published: April 2019

This paper is an examination of the neuro effects of opioids on the human brain. The research examines the brain receptors, region, enzymes, agonists involved, and the results of its interaction with opioids. Examination of the pharmacological effect on receptors located in the neural cell membranes shows that the most important aspect is the modulation of the K and Ca ions channels. This is mediated by the activation of the delta, kappa and mu opioid receptors in the peripheral and central nervous systems. The study found that opioid receptors are coupled by guanine nucleotide binding proteins (G-proteins) to the K+ channel and voltage sensitive Ca++ channel, particularly, the N-type channel. The channels are inhibited if K+ outwards release is increased leading to short polarization time. The outward movement occurs in several regions of the spinal cords, brain, and the myenteric plexus. The rapid K+ outward movement is associated with the observed hyperpolarization and inhibition c4aused by opioids. While the brain has naturally occurring opioids peptides (the b endorphin, the enkephalins and the dynorphin which preferentially interact with the m-receptor, d-receptors and k-receptors respectively), morphine was found to produce exaggerated stimulation of the m-receptor which induce tolerance, addiction, and dependency. The results of opioid interaction with the brain were found to cause depression, nausea, sedation, dysphoria, and impaired cognition, modulation of emotions, stress, rewards, memory and learning.

Published: April 2019

This article presents a formal statistical model for assessing the word frequency effect in recognition memory. This topic is relevant because word frequency is the best predictor of performance in recognition memory tasks. Signal Detection Theory was applied using high-frequency and low-frequency words as item-signals. Signal Detection Theory test assumes orthogonality of responses: hits, false alarms, correct rejections, and incorrect rejections. Ninety-six adult male and female students participated in two experiments: one conducted in the laboratory and the other in the class-room. The selected words for memory contained 3 to 5 letters and 1 or 2 syllables to control for length. Significant differences were found between high-frequency and low-frequency words in the number of false alarms for the two experiments. The differences were statistically significant in two experiments. The Cohen effect size was 0.6 and 0.45 respectively. The word frequency effect in first- and second-experiments was F (1, 46) = 4.13, MCE. = 2.34, p = 0.003 and F (1, 46) = 3.71, MCE. = 12.36, p = 0. 01 respectively. A formal model is presented based on the Receiver Operating Characteristic data to assess data trends for high- and low frequency words. Two differentiated models were obtained: a continuous model based on high frequency stimuli and a threshold model based on low frequency stimuli.

La hermenéutica como una alternativa psicoterapéutica. Una aproximación interpretativa al sufrimiento particular desde los aportes teóricos de Dilthey, Heidegger y Gadamer
Authors: Pacheco Pacheco Cristóbal Andres
Published: April 2019

La hermenéutica surge como un medio de interpretación de realidades particulares, posicionadas en una dimensión subjetiva, la cual denota posibilidades de acercamiento desde una dimensión dialógica, orientada a la necesidad de generar interacciones discursivas enfocadas en la posibilidad de la interpretación como medio de comprensión, desde el plano psicoterapéutico en el sufrimiento a nivel particular. Los aportes de Dilthey, Heidegger y Gadamer revisten un desarrollo teórico ejemplar en la comprensión humana basada en una ontología del lenguaje, siendo estos elementos de una amplia utilidad práctica en cuanto a su aplicación en instancias de apoyo a nivel psicoterapéutico. El presente artículo compromete una revisión detallada del trabajo de los presentes autores y sus respectivos aportes en la construcción de posibilidades terapéuticas centradas en el acercamiento comprensivo del sufrimiento individual.

“Validity” of Vittorio Guidano in the psychotherapy of the twenty-first century
Authors: De Pascale Adele
Published: April 2019

The main purpose of this article is to mention the most important Guidano’s approach contributions to modern psychotherapy and psychopathology. In his cultural and interpretative psychology, rooted in evolutionary epistemology, the mind is the link between the individual and his biology, the external world, and his story. Beginning from the emergence of mentalism among primates, Guidano offers a new explanation of psychosis and psychopathology, for understanding and for curing, based on the integration of three levels of self-meaning: individual, familial, and social. With contextualization, a phylogenic way of remaining connected with the group, as the ontogenic way of child developing that takes place in the family context, through the attachment bonds, it becomes possible to  put in sequence the personal experience and integrate it inside the self,  to maintain life coherence and continuity. Both psychotherapy and psychiatry are in need of a plausible theory of mind that is able to offer an understanding of basic inherited human feelings, language and meanings as evolutionary tools that are necessary for a functioning health human: the mind and the brain are the same thing. The primacy  of affect during the evolution of brain-mind suggests that therapies need a clear vision and knowing of affective human life and what we need is a complete integration of every therapeutic tradition,  having  the primacy of affective development as the core
Self Noise Reduction and Aerodynamics of Airfoils with Porous Trailing Edges
Authors: Geyer Thomas Fritz , Sarradj Ennes
Published: April 2019

The application of open-porous materials is a possible method to effectively reduce the aerodynamic noise of an airfoil. However, the porous consistency may have a negative effect on the aerodynamic performance of the airfoil, since very often the lift is decreased while the drag increases. In a recent investigation, the generation of trailing edge noise of a set of airfoil models made from different porous materials was examined experimentally. The materials were characterized mainly by their airflow resistivity. Besides the material, the chordwise extent of the porous material was varied, which was done by covering the front part of the porous airfoil with a thin, impermeable adhesive foil. Acoustic measurements were performed in an open jet wind tunnel using microphone array technology, while the aerodynamic performance was measured simultaneously using a six-component balance. In general, both the airflow resistivity and the extent of the porous material have an influence on the trailing edge noise. However, if a suitable material is chosen, the results show that a noticeable reduction of trailing edge noise is possible even with only a small chordwise extent of the porous material.

Chitosan-based coatings are used as a postharvest treatment to extend the shelf-life of several fruits. In this study, the effectiveness of chitosan-based coating to preserve the physico-chemical (weight loss, soluble solid content, and titratable acidity) and nutraceutical traits (total polyphenol, anthocyanin, flavonoid, ascorbic acid content, antioxidant capacity) in fresh fig “Troiano” has been evaluated. Furthermore, antioxidant enzyme activities, such as catalase (CAT) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX), were evaluated as well as the enzymes activities involved in fruit browning (polyphenol oxidase (PPO), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX)). Fruits were treated with 1% chitosan and 1% ascorbic acid coating, stored at 4 °C for nine days, and sampled every three days. Chitosan-based coating significantly reduced the weight loss and the qualitative changes, improving the total polyphenol, anthocyanin, and flavonoid contents and the antioxidant activity in stored figs. The higher activity of antioxidant enzymes allowed to reduce oxidative stress and prevent the browning reactions in chitosan-coated figs. The principal component analysis allowed to distinguish different behaviors among uncoated and chitosan-coated figs, indicating that the combined effects of chitosan-based treatment and storage time influenced the physico-chemical, nutraceutical and antioxidant system of figs during storage.

Strigolactones (SLs) constitute an important class of plant hormones involved in diverse developmental activities in plant growth and host-parasite interaction. Although substantial progress has been made to understand this pathway, the mechanism of action is still elusive especially with its interaction with other phytohormones and downstream targets. Here we have utilized the negative role of strigolactones in rice (Oryza sativa L.) mesocotyl elongation as a morphological marker for the identification and characterization of new developmental mutants. We observed that deep sown seeds develop longer mesocotyl compared with the surface-grown seeds in the dark condition. Based on this observation, we have developed a method to access mesocotyl elongation consisting of the glass vessel and vermiculite as a growth media. Mesocotyl elongation in the modified deep sown system results in a many-fold increase compared to the surface-grown seeds in the dark condition. External application of SLs analog rac-GR24 rescued the elongated mesocotyl phenotype in the mutant defective in SLs synthesis but not the signaling mutant, demonstrating its applicability in the physiological experiments. The modified mesocotyl elongation assay can be used as a rapid method for characterization and identification of suppressors/enhancers and new developmental mutants in the SLs or its associated pathway saving a huge amount of time and space.

Projections of grapevine phenophases under future climate change scenarios are strategic decision support tools for viticulturists and wine producers. Several phenological models are tested for budburst, flowering, and veraison and for two main grapevine varieties (cv. Touriga Franca and Touriga Nacional) growing in the Douro Demarcated Region. Four forcing models (Growing degree-days, Richardson, Sigmoid, and Wang) and three dormancy models (Bidabe, Smoothed Utah and Chuine), with different parameterizations and combinations, are used. New datasets, combing phenology with weather station data, widespread over the Douro wine region, were used for this purpose. The eight best performing models and parameterizations were selected for each phenophase and variety, based on performance metrics. For both cultivars, results revealed moderate performances (0.4 < R2 < 0.7) for budburst, while high performances (R2 > 0.7) were found for flowering and veraison, particularly when Growing degree-days or Sigmoid models are used, respectively. Climate change projections were based on a two-member climate model ensemble from the EURO-CORDEX project under RCP4.5. Projections depicted an anticipation of phenophase timings by 6, 8 or 10–12 days until the end of the century for budburst, flowering, and veraison, respectively. The inter-model variability is of approximately 2–4 days for flowering and veraison and 4–6 days for budburst. These results establish grounds for the implementation of a decision support system for monitoring and short-term prediction of grapevine phenology, thus promoting a more efficient viticulture.
