Assessing the Dynamic Behaviour of Midrise Frame Structures Sitting on Silty Sandy Soil
Authors: Ismail Sahar , Kaddah Fouad , Raphael Wassim
Published: September 2020

Background:

Midrise 5 to 15 storeys frame structures sitting on soft soils are susceptible to damage induced by seismic events. The level of damage is related to the interaction between the structure, foundation and soil called Soil Structure Interaction (SSI). If the level of ground acceleration is low, the wave gets amplified putting the structure at risk of collapse.

Objective and Methods:

Concerns about SSI have motivated several researchers to investigate the seismic behaviour of structures rested on cohesive and cohesionless soils. The objective of the work presented in this paper is to evaluate the effects of several parameters on the seismic soil structure interaction behaviour of midrise structures sitting on silty sandy soil. Using ABAQUS, reliable 3D models of 5 to 15 storeys midrise concrete frame structures rested on raft foundation were built. The effects of the structure’s number of storeys, raft size and thickness were explored for different column sizes. Fixed-based structures which capture the model adopted in seismic codes and flexible-based structures were hit at the bottom by El-Centro (1940) and Northridge (1994) earthquakes.

Results and Conclusion:

The results, presented in terms of storey lateral deflection, inter-storey drift, shear force, foundation rocking and response spectrum showed the important contribution of SSI effects on the behaviour of the midrise structures. The model analyses indicated that column size strongly affects the behaviour of flexible structures. LetNbe the structure number of storeys andCthe column size. The results showed that in terms of storey lateral deflection and levelling shear force, for column sizes C 0.5 X 0.5 m, SSI was detrimental to structures with 10 ≤N≤ 15 and beneficial to structures with 5 ≤N<10. Increasing the column size to C 0.5 X 1 m showed that SSI became detrimental for structures with 10 <N≤ 15 under El-Centro (1940) and for structures with 7≤N≤ 15 under Northridge (1994), and beneficial for structures with 5 ≤N≤ 10 under El-Centro (1940) and for structures with 5 ≤N< 7 under Northridge (1994). The FE results showed that even though base shear increased with raft size, lateral deflections were amplified for C 0.5 X 0.5 m S15 structures and attenuated for C 0.5 X 1 m S15 structures. However, the seismic response of S15 structures was slightly affected by the variation in raft thickness under both column sizes. Finally, the paper includes a discussion and evaluation of the contribution of inertial and kinematic effects, including soil types used on the simulated numerical models’ seismic responses.
Real-World Evidence of User Engagement With Mobile Health for Diabetes Management: Longitudinal Observational Study
Authors: Böhm Anna-Katharina , Jensen Morten Lind , Sørensen Mads Reinholdt , Stargardt Tom
Published: September 2020

Background

Patient support apps have risen in popularity and provide novel opportunities for self-management of diabetes. Such apps offer patients to play an active role in monitoring their condition, thereby increasing their own treatment responsibility. Although many health apps require active user engagement to be effective, there is little evidence exploring engagement with mobile health (mHealth).

Objective

This study aims to analyze the extent to which users engage with mHealth for diabetes and identify patient characteristics that are associated with engagement.

Methods

The analysis is based on real-world data obtained by Novo Nordisk’s Cornerstones4Care Powered by Glooko diabetes support app. User engagement was assessed as the number of active days and using measures expressing the persistence, longevity, and regularity of interaction within the first 180 days of use. Beta regressions were estimated to assess the associations between user characteristics and engagement outcomes for each module of the app.

Results

A total of 9051 individuals initiated use after registration and could be observed for 180 days. Among these, 55.39% (5013/9051) used the app for one specific purpose. The average user activity ratio varied from 0.05 (medication and food) to 0.55 (continuous glucose monitoring), depending on the module of the app. Average user engagement was lower if modules required manual data entries, although the initial uptake was higher for these modules. Regression analyses further revealed that although more women used the app (2075/3649, 56.86%), they engaged significantly less with it. Older people and users who were recently diagnosed tended to use the app more actively.

Conclusions

Strategies to increase or sustain the use of apps and availability of health data may target the mode of data collection and content design and should take into account privacy concerns of the users at the same time. Users’ engagement was determined by various user characteristics, indicating that particular patient groups should be targeted or assisted when integrating apps into the self-management of their disease.
Protective Effects of Maternal Education against Low Birth Weight Deliveries: Blacks’ Diminished Returns
Authors: Assari Shervin
Published: September 2020

Background: Racial and economic disparities in low birth weight (LBW) deliveries is among the most well-established differences between Blacks and Whites. As LBW is an established risk factor for chronic diseases such as asthma and diabetes, it is particularly important to understand drivers of racial and economic disparities in LBW deliveries in urban areas. Aims: Built on the Minorities’ Diminished Returns framework, which argues that educational attainment generates fewer positive health outcomes for Black than White Americans, we conducted this study with three aims: 1) to test the association between mothers’ educational attainment and LBW of babies born in urban areas, 2) to compare Blacks and Whites for the effect of mothers’ educational attainment on LBW, and 3) to test whether LBW is predictive of future chronic diseases 15 years later. Methods: Data came from the Fragile Families and Child Well-being / included a random sample of births in cities larger than 200,000 population. For the aims 1 and 2, we analyzed data of 2,922 births to Black (n = 2,146) or White (n = 776) mothers. For aim 3, we analyzed data of a subsample of 1,604 Black or White newborns who were followed to age 15. The presence or absence of chronic diseases was determined at age 15. Logistic regression was used for data analysis. Results: Maternal educational attainment was inversely associated with LBW overall. We, however, found a significant interaction between maternal educational attainment and race, suggesting that the inverse association between maternal education and LBW is weaker for Black than White babies. At the same time, LBW increased the odds of chronic disease 15 years later. Conclusions: Diminished returns of maternal educational attainment contribute to racial disparities in LBW, which in turn contributes to future racial inequalities in chronic diseases in urban settings. That is, smaller protective effects of maternal education on reducing LBW for Black than White children contribute to the high prevalence of chronic diseases among adolescents in urban settings. Health disparities are not just due to racial differences in socioeconomic status but also diminishing returns of socioeconomic status indicators such as education for racial and ethnic minorities. Research should study contextual factors that reduce Blacks’ ability to translate their human capital to health outcomes in urban settings.

Comprehensive Obesity Education for Family Medicine Residents
Authors: Khandalavala Birgit , Koran-Scholl Jessica , Geske Jenenne
Published: September 2020

Background: Family medicine residents receive limited education on obesity management and obesity bias. Weight stigmatization is prevalent in primary care providers and trainees, and early mitigation is critical to optimize patient-centered care. Recent Provider Competencies for the Prevention and Management of Obesity include obesity bias. This report is intended to fill a current gap in obesity education for family medicine residents.
Methods: An interprofessional obesity teaching half day for family medicine residents incorporated the Provider Competencies and focused on five modules that addressed complexities of obesity and its clinical management. The obesity bias module focused on both explicit and implicit bias, assessment of implicit bias, preferential language usage, and mitigation strategies. An obesity-simulation empathy suit was available, and a public health expert described successful obesity care in a patient-centered medical home. Family medicine residents were surveyed prior to, immediately after the half-day of obesity teaching, and 15 months later.
Results: Survey results indicated 39.3% of residents had no previous biopsychosocial obesity education. Residents believed the content moderately (68.8%) or mostly (12.5%) impacted their approach to working with patients with obesity. Residents’ comfort in working with patients with obesity as well as their perceived understanding of their own biases increased immediately after the intervention and was sustained 15 months later.
Conclusions: Our results suggest that a half day of obesity teaching can have a positive and sustained impact on family medicine residents. Additionally, this educational experience allowed for greater individual awareness building and insight regarding implicit bias. Such education for family medicine residents fills an identified gap in obesity education.
Tradition in the Post-Traditional World: National Literature as Experience of Prolongation
Authors: Sultanov Kazbek K.
Published: September 2020

The article examines the meaning behind the concept “tradition” as a factor in the self-determination of a national literature and its correlation with modernity. Implicit complementarity of tradition and modernity, repetition and renewal is one of the cornerstones of the sociocultural self-organization of society and culture. The proposed dynamic model is oriented towards a holistic approach: the substantial significance of tradition conceptually relates to its processual character and predisposition to creative prolongation. The existential meaning of tradition as a form of continuous collective memory most fully manifests itself in its literary reconstruction. Drawing from the work of V. Rasputin and F. Iskander that represent two different cultural traditions, the article traces intense interdependence of such dichotomies as “old / new” and “continuity / gap.” Within the framework of artistic actualization of the complementarity between the constant and the variable, tradition appears as an organic prerequisite of the national model of modernization.
The Image of the Land and Its Functions in Tolstoy’s Novel Resurrection
Authors: Andreeva Valeria G.
Published: September 2020

The paper argues that Leo Tolstoy uses the national disaster paradigm represented in the epic novel War and Peace to depict the relatively peaceful time in his novel Resurrection as he raises the question of the growing crisis in Russia and the problem of the survival of Russian people. One of the central images of this latter novel is the image of the land. Its function is to support a system of Tolstoy’s antitheses that in his late period, aimed not only to rebuke the existing order but also to create a large-scale image of national unity. The image of the land in Resurrection ties together thematic and ideological strata of the novel that manifest its epic features. I argue that although Tolstoy abandoned his initial intention to make the acute social and political landrelated issue the center of his work, the motif nevertheless remains relevant. The image of the land is ciphered in the description of the severity of prisoners’ life and Nekhlyudov’s attempts to help the prisoners. Moreover, it is closely connected with all spheres of Russian life, it is a marker of Nekhlyudov’s spiritual growth that allows not only place the character’s “resurrection” within specific realities of historical time, but also presents it in the traditions of Christian anthropology. The image of the land allots the novel with trans-historical meaning and contributes to the implementation of the religious consciousness in Tolstoy’s work.
Bunin in the Interwar Poland. A Failed Tour
Authors: Ndiaye Iwona Anna
Published: September 2020

The following paper explores the reception of Ivan Bunin’s literary legacy in the interwar Poland. The question of how The Nobel Prize in Literature influenced the writer’s popularity in Poland. The main aim of this article is to analyze and characterize those circumstances, which became the reason for Bunin’s failure to visit Poland during his literary tour to the Baltic countries in 1938. Selected materials were taken from traditional card and online catalogues in the National Library of Poland and the University of Warsaw Library. They embrace the period from 1920 to 1940. The analysis, on the one hand, shows the problem of political relationships between the revived Polish state and young Soviet Russia and its role in the development of literary contacts in the interwar period. On the other hand, it allows us to draw conclusions about the political and literary dimensions of I. Bunin’s failed tour to Poland.
Face to Face with Everybody: Fictional World of the Forest Nenets Yuri Vella
Authors: Arzamazov Alexey A.
Published: September 2020

Creative work of the Nenets poet Yuri Vella occupies a special place in the literary community of the peoples of Russia. On the one hand, it fits into the main paradigms of the development of national literatures at the turn of the 20th–21st centuries (rapid increase of the dominance of the Russian language in the ethnohumanitarian environment; urbanistic motivic and figurative cluster; the relevance of the environmental topics; representative value of social narratives; a high level of ethnographic writing, etc.). On the other hand, Vella’s poems highlight one of the possible trajectories of the poetic traditions of the peoples of Russia in the near future (increased significance of the free verse; increased attention to ethnolinguistic “ornamentation” of texts; expansion of the visual component in the structure of the book; coexistence of different languages under one cover). The life and poetry of Yuri Vella confirm that the most important catalyst for the development of national literature is the author’s own active and creative personality. At the same time, the study of Yuri Vella’s work has interest in the context of broader studies of the national literature of the peoples of the Far North and its current state.
Verlen in the Interlinear Translation and in Translation: Creative Laboratory of Fyodor Sologub
Authors: Bagno Vsevolod E. , Misnikevich Tatyana V.
Published: September 2020

This article examines the development of the translation manner of Fyodor Sologub. The study of the poet’s archive makes it possible to highlight a number of preparatory materials for Sologub’s translations from Paul Verlaine, in particular, interlinear translations. Sologub’s experiments with interlinear translations, which in his case represent a hybrid genre (interlinear translations that include a large number of different dictionary variants of words) are of great importance for the theory, history, and practice of literary translation. Using specific examples, the essay demonstrates that Sologub worked not just with the original text, traditional interlinear translation, and written out words. He employed his “expanded” interlinear translation where he could freely navigate, choose and rearrange words, try their “sound” while seeking to keep their meaning. The authors argue that Sologub’s translating method consisted in selecting Russian words on the basis of the interlinear translation that not only conveyed the original but also made it possible to create a new lexical, grammatical, metric, phonetic, and emotional unity close to the translator’s worldview mindset and aesthetic views.
West-Eastern Poetic Compositions of the First Third of the 19th Century: from Goethe’s Divan to the ‘Sonnet/Ghazal’ by Mickiewicz / Topczi-Baszy
Authors: Kudelin Alexander B.
Published: September 2020

The article is concerned with reciprocity between Western and Eastern literatures of the 19th century, when Orientalist motives began to take hold in European writings. Goethe, in his “West-Östlicher Divan” (1819), attributed this interest to the everlasting excellence and value, which the Eastern masterpieces hold for the West. However, as it is clear nowadays, the ‘West-Eastern’ compositions cannot be seen as truthfully retaining the spirit of the Eastern classics, which was based on a different system of meanings and values. On the other hand, it became clear that the Eastern reception of these European works in the 19th century could not be true to the Western original, either, since even most progressive Eastern literatures of the time kept to artistic principles and system of genres of the Late Middle Ages. Against this historical and critical background, the article investigates the outcome of one venture — the emergence of a Persian translation of Adam Mickiewicz’s poem, commissioned by himself for his “Sonnets” (1826). Dzafar Topczi-Baszy adjusted the sonnet for an Eastern audience. Having presented his translation as a sample of the medieval genre of tadhkira (which has to contain both biographical and anthological features), Topczi- Baszy supplied the Persian version of the poem with facts about Mickiewicz; he cast the poem into a Persian poetic form — ghazal; he replaced the elements of Romantic imagery with the Eastern ones.
A High Glycemic Burden Relates to Functional and Metabolic Alterations of Human Monocytes in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes

Published: September 2020

Diabetes is associated with increased cardiovascular risk and higher occurrence of infections. These complications suggest altered responses of the innate immune system. Recent studies have shown that energy metabolism of monocytes is crucial in determining their functionality. Here we investigate whether monocyte metabolism and function are changed in patients with diabetes and aim to identify diabetes-associated factors driving these alterations. Patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) (n = 41) and healthy age-, sex-, and BMI-matched control subjects (n = 20) were recruited. Monocytes were isolated from peripheral blood to determine immune functionality, metabolic responses, and transcriptome profiles. Upon ex vivo stimulation with Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 or TLR-2 agonists, monocytes of patients with T1D secreted lower levels of various cytokines and showed lower glycolytic rates compared with monocytes isolated from matched control subjects. Stratification based on HbA1c levels revealed that lower cytokine secretion was coupled to higher glycolytic rate of monocytes in patients with a higher glycemic burden. Circulating monocytes displayed an enhanced inflammatory gene expression profile associated with high glycemic burden. These results suggest that a high glycemic burden in patients with T1D is related to expression of inflammatory genes of monocytes and is associated with an impaired relationship between metabolism and inflammatory function upon activation.

HELMINTOS PARÁSITOS DE MICROPTERUS SALMOIDES (LACEPÉDE, 1802) UNA ESPECIE INVASORA EN BRASIL: UN CASO DE CO-INTRODUCCIÓN Y SPILLBACK
Authors: Lula Costa Ana Paula , Takemoto Ricardo M. , S. Vitule Jean Ricardo
Published: September 2020

La perca americana, Micropterus salmoides (Lacepéde, 1802), es un pez centrarchido de América del Norte que ahora tiene una distribución global debido a introducciones extendidas por pesca deportiva. Su introducción en Brasil data de 1920, principalmente en las regiones del sur. Sabemos que M. salmoides ha generado una serie de impactos en los ecosistemas en que se ha establecido. Sin embargo, sus parásitos en Brasil son desconocidos. Esto genera la posibilidad de nuevas interacciones y potenciales impactos. Por tanto, el objetivo de este estudio fue analizar los parásitos de M. salmoides en cuatro reservorios de agua en el sur de Brasil, midiendo la prevalencia y la abundancia media en cada reservorio. Analizamos un total de 59 individuos de M. salmoides, 15 en cada reserva, con excepción de la reserva Capivari-Cachoeira, con 14 individuos. De los peces analizados, 91,5% estaban parasitados por 1567 parásitos pertenecientes a cuatro especies, tres nemátodos: Contracaecum sp. (86,4%) en larvas, Procamallanus (Procamallanus) peraccuratus Pinto, Fábio, Noronha y Rolas 1976 (6,7%) y Hysterothylacium brachyurum Ward & Magath 1917 (6,7%), y una especie de monogenoideo Onchocleidus principalis (Mizelle, 1936) (57,6 %). De estos resultados podemos concluir que el proceso de co-introducción y “spillback” aún está en etapas tempranas, en la mayoría de las veces por la baja diversidad de parásitos. Sin embargo, el monitoreo y las acciones de control son altamente recomendadas para controlar los impactos de infecciones por parásitos y promover actividades de mitigación y campañas de prevención.

El molusco Lissachatina fulica Bowdich, 1822 es un gasterópodo terrestre originario de África oriental. Actualmente su distribución es muy amplia como Colombia, Ecuador, Perú y Brasil. Ha sido considerado una de las 100 plagas más importantes del mundo, produce graves daños, a la par genera afectaciones en la salud y ecosistema. El presente estudio reporta por primera vez los datos morfométricos comparativos, sobre L. fulica recolectados en la parroquia Luz de América, cantón Santo Domingo, Provincia de Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas, Ecuador con el fin de poder tomar medidas de control contra L. fulica. Se recolectaron 837 moluscos de L. fulica en 25 fincas, dando como resultado una densidad poblacional de 3,35 ind/m2, las siete variables medidas fueron largo y ancho de la concha, altura del último anillo, longitud de los anillos, longitud y ancho de la apertura, y número de anillos. La investigación demostró una correlación dominante, positiva y estadísticamente significativa (p≤0,001) entre las variables estudiadas. Estos resultados afirman que durante su proceso de crecimiento los rasgos fenotípicos están relacionados entre sí, por ello podemos considerar que si alguna condición ambiental o en su dieta cambia, afectaría notablemente a todas variables estudiadas. Se determinó que el largo de la concha crece a una velocidad del doble de veces más rápido que el ancho, y la longitud de los anillos, el largo crece a 1,5 veces más rápido que la altura del último anillo, mientras que el largo comparado con el ancho de la apertura va a crecer tres veces más rápido, la altura del último anillo crece 1,5 veces más que la longitud de la apertura. El número de anillos no tiene relación directa con las demás variables en estudio, el largo de la concha es la mejor referencia para conocer las demás variables.

El presente estudio es para conocer la abundancia de los anofelinos en municipios ecológicamente diversos relacionándolos con los tipos de criaderos colonizados en Jutiapa, Guatemala. Se empleó la técnica del cucharón según lineamientos de colectas entomológicas estandarizadas. El material biológico se fijó en alcohol etílico al 70 % en frascos de vidrio con identificación precisa del tipo de depósito, lugar, fecha de colecta y colector entre otros datos. Anopheles pseudopunctipennis (Theobald, 1901) y Anopheles albimanus (Wiedemann, 1820) fueron las dos especies de anofeles capturados. Fueron 14 los tipos de depósitos con presencia de larvas y 70 los criaderos positivos entre las dos especies, 13 tipos para A. pseudopunctipennis (92,85 %) y 10 para A. albimanus (71,42 %). Cada especie colonizó el 50 % del total general, coincidiendo ambas en nueve tipos de depósitos (64,28 %), con predominio de los charcos (30 %), ríos (22,85 %) y zanjas (11,42 %). Se apreció que hubo ausencia significativa entre las abundancias medias de las dos especies de anopheles capturadas. Por esta razón necesitamos continuar desarrollando los estudios entomológicos y ecológicos “in situ”, para determinar la incidencia de los factores abióticos sobre los niveles de abundancia observados, así como en las probables marcadas fluctuaciones poblacionales de ambas especies de mosquitos.

En el año 1997 se adopta en la república de Cuba, una estrategia de educación ambiental, la que constituyó un documento de política que aunó por vez primera todos los esfuerzos realizados hasta ese entonces. Esta estrategia definió, además, las líneas de trabajo a seguir en materia de concienciación ambiental para todos los sectores de la sociedad cubana. El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo proponer un sistema de actividades de educación ambiental, que incluyen encuentros socioculturales, talleres participativos, charlas y entrevistas, para contribuir a la concientización de algunos sectores de la población holguinera a mantener una conducta adecuada en la conservación del patrimonio local y en particular de las principales plazas de la ciudad de Holguín, en la provincia del mismo nombre. Para el desarrollo eficaz de esta investigación, se emplean métodos del nivel teórico y empírico, para abordar el estudio multilateral del objeto de investigación, dentro de este último se destaca la observación participante y la entrevista. Los resultados preliminares obtenidos, ponen de manifiesto la inexistencia de depósitos para el vertimiento de basura, áreas verdes descuidadas e indisciplina social, esta última permite aseverar que algunos ciudadanos residentes en la ciudad adolecen de una cultura ambientalista, lo que ha sido constatado mediante la observación directa. Los resultados preliminares servirán de base para llevar a vías de hecho una fase superior de la investigación, donde se aplicarán diferentes instrumentos que propiciará detallar aún más la situación existente y así determinar las necesidades para diseñar una estrategia ambiental.

El objetivo de la investigación fue determinar la evolución histórica y los canales enzoóticos de la seroprevalencia del virus de la enfermedad de Newcastle (VENC) en dos granjas de patos Pekín de la provincia Artemisa, Cuba. Se realizó un estudio epidemiológico observacional retrospectivo de la seroprevalencia del virus, basado en el diagnóstico serológico de una serie de tiempo de cinco años. Se determinó si la época del año constituía un factor de riesgo asociado a la seroprevalencia. Fueron definidos los canales enzoóticos de la seropositividad y medias geométricas del virus. Se evidenció mayor riesgo de seroprevalencia al VENC, con incremento a medida que transcurrieron los años. Los valores de las medias geométricas de los títulos de anticuerpos contra el virus estuvieron por encima del comportamiento habitual o canal enzoótico, en zonas de alerta y epizoótica en algunos meses de la serie de tiempo analizada. La seroprevalencia resultó superior en la granja A, respecto a la granja B, lo cual estuvo condicionado a mayor cantidad de brechas sanitarias, tales como una mayor cercanía a granjas de gallinas ponedoras, carreteras y asentamientos poblacionales, así como, potencial contacto con aves migratorias.
A resiliência na gestão municipal de desastres: estudo de caso em união da vitória sob a ótica do scorecard para inundações | Resilience in municipal disaster management: a case study in união da vitória from the perspective of the flood scorecard
Authors: Ferentz Larissa Maria da Silva , Garcias Carlos Mello
Published: September 2020

Os impactos negativos resultantes da ocorrência de eventos extremos nas cidades têm aumentado cada vez mais nos últimos anos. Por isso é necessário que os gestores locais considerem a Gestão de Desastres como parte de suas atividades, a fim de buscar por uma resposta e uma recuperação eficaz na ocorrência desses eventos. O objetivo principal dessa pesquisa foi analisar a gestão municipal de proteção e defesa civil de União da Vitória quanto à sua atuação nos desastres de inundação, já que esse é o município que apresenta o maior número de registros desse tipo no Estado do Paraná. A metodologia utilizada se baseia na tradução, adaptação e aplicação do indicador global da Organização das Nações Unidas: Scorecard Detalhado de Resiliência a Desastres. Ao todo, foram avaliados 21 itens juntamente com a coordenadoria municipal de proteção e defesa civil e áreas setoriais estratégicas (saúde, educação, meio ambiente, infraestrutura etc.), que permitiram observar o perfil da gestão atual de desastres do município. Como destaques, União da Vitória apresentou uma resposta eficaz na ocorrência de inundações; forte cultura de convivência com as enchentes; novas construções nas áreas de cheias e a comodidade das pessoas em perder todos os bens e batalharem para conseguir tudo outra vez depois das inundações. Concluiu-se que a utilização de indicado­res que avaliam a gestão de desastres dos municípios é essencial para que os gestores possam auto-avaliar suas ações de resposta e recuperação de eventos extremos, encontrando assim, medidas que os auxi­liem a tornar suas cidades cada vez mais resilientes.

Published: September 2020

Several physiological alterations that arise in response to hypoxemia conditions when diving are intended to protect oxygen-sensitive organs from the hypoxic condition. Hippocampus, known for its central function in memory formation, is sensitive to hypoxic conditions. This research aimed to study the effect of voluntary diving exercise (VDE) on the hippocampus-dependent learning performance of rats. Rats were divided into control and diving groups, with swim and voluntary diving exercises every day for 60 days, respectively. Observation of memory consolidation was carried out using Morris Water Maze (MWM) and Novel Object Recognition (NOR) tests. In the MWM test, the escape latencies in the diving group were shorter than those in the control group. Consistent results were obtained in the MWM probe trial which the time spent in the target quadrant was significantly longer in the diving group. Moreover, the diving group spent more time exploring the novel object in the NOR test. Based on the results, we can conclude that 60 days VDE significantly improves hippocampus-dependent learning capacity in trained rats.

This article aims to discuss Thorstein Veblen's perspective about the behavior of waste or excessive consumption by the leisure class. This article uses the library research to understanding the perspective of Veblen's theory of consumption. We review Veblen's work, The Theory of the Leisure Class, as the main note complemented by relevant books and journals to support this study. The leisure class in this regard act deliberately to display their wealth. The newly rich group flaunted the luxury of their life with a motive to accommodate their desire for social respect and social status. The leisure class realizes their social actions through conspicuous leisure time consumption and conspicuous consumption of goods characterized by imitative and emulative behavior among the actors involved in it. The conspicuous consumption behavior produces élite taste which in turn has a social impact that affects the class behavior of the lower strata.AbstrakArtikel ini bertujuan untuk mendiskusikan sudut pandang Thorstein Veblen dalam melihat perilaku konsumsi berlebihan yang dilakukan oleh kelas sosial tertentu dalam masyarakat. Studi ini menggunakan metode kajian pustaka dalam memahami perspektif teori konsumsi Veblen. Data dalam artikel ini bersumber dari karya-larya Veblen sendiri, The Theory of the Leisure Class, serta buku-buku dan jurnal-jurnal yang relevan dalam mendukung artikel ini. Perilaku ini rupanya lahir dari sebuah konteks sosial dimana kelompok orang kaya baru mencoba mengakomodasi hasrat mereka akan penghargaan sosial dan status sosial. Hal ini diwujudkan melalui konsumsi waktu luang mencolok dan konsumsi barang mencolok yang ditandai dengan perilaku imitatif dan emulatif diantara aktor-aktor yang terlibat di dalamnya. Perilaku konsumsi mencolok menghasilkan selera elite yang selanjutnya meluas dan berdampak secara sosial dimana mempengaruhi perilaku kelas dari strata yang lebih rendah

AbstractIslam as the religion of rahmatanlil'alamin means that Islam is universal and flexible to all aspects of life, including the life of mankind. Da'wah of Islam touches on the development of the resources of the Muslim community and the global community in humanizing humans, achieving a decent standard of living materially and immaterial (hasanah fid-dunya wal akhirat). However, the availability of potential natural resources has not been maximally utilized because of the low capacity and weak work ethic. Therefore, the establishment of Manhaj Jama'ah in development and empowerment activities is important to implement. Development that is centered on pilgrims can have a broader impact in efforts to build people's welfare and can build "peer networks" in community development activities.This paper is not an applicative study of a study but contains theoretical-academic exposures, which explain the efforts to develop Islamic society in congregation. In this article, it was explained the reason for the need for community development activities carried out in congregation, what strengths the pilgrims have and the stages of forming strong and independent jama'ah.Keywords: Manhaj, Jamaah, Community Development. AbstrakIslam sebagai agama rahmatanlil’alamin bermakna bahwa Islam itu universal dan fleksibel terhadap semua aspek kehidupan makhluk, termasuk kehidupan umat manusia. Dakwah Islam menyentuh pembangunan sumber daya komunitas muslim dan masyarakat global dalam memanusiakan manusia, mencapai taraf hidup layak secara material dan immaterial (hasanah fid-dunya wal akhirat). Akan tetapi, ketersediaan potensi sumberdaya alam itu belum maksimal dimanfaatkan karena rendahnya kemampuan dan lemahnya etos kerja. Oleh karena itu, pembentukan manhaj jama’ah dalam kegiatan pengembangan dan pemberdayaan menjadi penting untuk dilaksanakan. Pengembangan yang dipusatkan pada jamaah dapat memberikan dampak yang lebih luas dalam upaya membangun kesejahteraan umat dan dapat membangun “jaringan sebaya” dalam kegiatan pengembangan masyarakat.Paper ini bukanlah kajian aplikatif dari sebuah penelitian melainkan berisi paparan teoritis-akademis, yang menjelaskan upaya pengembangan masyarakat Islam itu dilakukan secara berjamaah. Dalam artikel ini dijelaskan alasan perlunya kegiatan pengembangan masyarakat itu dilakukan secara berjamaah, kekuatan apa yang dimiliki oleh jamaah dan tahapan membentuk jama’ah yang kuat dan mandiri.Kata Kunci: Manhaj, Jamaah, Pengembangan Masyarakat.

This article discusses traditions which state that the affairs of leadership are held by the Bani Quraisy contained in the authentic Hadith books. By using the study of literature through the approach of the method of understanding the hadith and sociological approach to the source of data in the form of classic hadith books in the books of Shahih Bukhari, Shahih Muslim, Musnad Imam Ahmad and Musnad Abu Daud, books and scientific articles, obtained the results of studies that scholars agreed on the validity of the traditions about the Caliphate (leadership) in the hands of Bani Quraisy, but the scholars differed in interpreting the hadith, between afdlaliyyah (the conditions of virtue) and in'iqad (mutlaq terms). In contemporary society with a sociological approach to the authentic hadiths, an understanding is obtained that the leader must have a sense of justice, compassion, keep promises, uphold religion and invite service and prevent disobedience. Leaders who have these requirements must be obeyed by their people (their community).Keywords: Leadership Hadith, Caliphate, Bani Quraisy, Community Leader. Artikel ini membahas tentang hadis-hadis yang menyatakan bahwa urusan kepemimpinan dipegang oleh Bani Quraisy yang terdapat dalam kitab-kitab hadis shahih.

Pemimpin yang memiliki persyaratkan itu wajib ditaati oleh rakyatnya (komunitasnya).Katakunci: Hadis Kepemimpinan, Kekhalifahan, Suku Quraisy, Pemimpin Komunitas.

The paper dwells on functioning of cognitive metaphor in the literary texts. The metaphor in literary text is the active creative mechanism. Many researches focused on the analysis of the development of metaphorical relations, images, concepts that evolve from myth to symbol. The metaphor in the literary text is not just a means of expression, but a way of thinking and knowing the world. The academic novelty of the paper consists in the study of the author’s perception of reality through conceptual images that expand the boundaries of the metaphorical space of the text. The study reveals the ways cognitive metaphors function in the short stories by Lyudmila Petrushevskaya, also describing the author’s individual style, the manner of understanding reality, the peculiarity of author’s thought, her contribution to the development of metaphorization, and the expansion of the metaphorical space of the text. The author’s interpretation of already known symbols, images, concepts is of great importance. A substantive base that forms a metaphor in the work of Petrushevskaya is also relevant, together with the factors that influence the development of metaphorical relations, those events or phenomena that are an incentive for the development of a metaphor in the writer’s work. The paper identifies algorithms of metaphorical transformations, as well as metaphorical structure of cognitive metaphor, typical of author’s way of thinking and individual artistic style.
