Insumos teóricos para enseñar las normas que rigen el uso de la coma
Authors: Andrade Ender
Published: May 2018

Este artículo se divide en tres partes: en la primera se ofrece una reflexión sobre algunas de las dificultades que subyacen en el proceso de enseñanza de las normas que rigen el uso de los signos de puntuación, en general. En la segunda parte se presenta una explicación de las reglas que, según la Real Academia Española, deben orientar el empleo de la coma, en particular. Por último, y apoyados en el concepto flipped classroom, se esbozan algunas recomendaciones para enseñar dichas normas. El objetivo es ofrecer un sustento teórico para que los profesores –principalmente de lengua española– justifiquen a sus estudiantes cuándo, dónde y por qué se debe utilizar ese signo ortográfico.
El cominciamento filosófico en Tomás de Aquino y Hegel según Cornelio Fabro
Authors: Benavides Christian Eduardo
Published: May 2018

La instancia filosófica del cominciamento hace referencia a aquel paso absolutamente primero del pensamiento, que es presupuesto y fundamento de todo contenido, modo y acto ulterior del propio pensar. En la modernidad, la instancia del inicio es reivindicada por Hegel, quien, al igual que Tomás de Aquino en el medioevo, concibe el “ser” como punto de partida del pensamiento. A pesar de esta convergencia entre ambos autores, presentan una profunda divergencia especulativa. Tanto la convergencia como la divergencia mencionadas serán examinadas en este trabajo, siguiendo las investigaciones del filósofo italiano Cornelio Fabro.
Las respuestas académicas a la objeción de apraxia
Authors: Pineda Pérez Christian
Published: May 2018

En este artículo reconstruyo y analizo las respuestas de los escépticos académicos a la objeción de apraxia. Esta objeción afirma que el escepticismo es una doctrina imposible de practicar puesto que sus tesis conducen a la apraxia, esta es, un estado de privación o imposibilidad de acción. Las respuestas a la objeción se dividen en dos clases. La primera prueba que el asentimiento no es una condición necesaria para realizar acciones, por lo que la recomendación escéptica de suspender global y permanentemente el asentimiento no conduciría a la apraxia. La segunda prueba que es posible deliberar y orientar racionalmente nuestras acciones sin impresiones aprehensivas, por lo que la tesis escéptica de que no existen impresiones aprehensivas tampoco conduciría a la apraxia. Tras unas breves consideraciones generales, en la primera parte de este artículo presento las respuestas de Arcesilao y en la segunda parte las repuestas de Carnéades.

No sólo el fuego de Benjamín Prado: entre el exilio y la posmemoria
Authors: Martínez Abeijón Matías
Published: May 2018

Este artículo analiza la caracterización del exilio español en Latinoamérica después de la Guerra Civil que se realiza en la novel No sólo el fuego (1999) de Benjamín Prado. También se ocupa de la manera en que sus personajes se relacionan con el pasado, mostrando bajo una luz positiva a aquellos que se aproximan a la memoria como un ejercicio activo, crítico y reflexivo. El artículo se apoya en la distinción entre un exilio en la tradición de Plutarco y el exilio ovidiano, propuesta por Claudio Guillén en su ensayo “El sol de los desterrados”. En lo que atañe a la discusión de la memoria, se basa en la caracterización de la posmemoria propuesta por Marianne Hirsch en su trabajo seminal Family Frames: Photography, Narrative, and Postmemory y en el cuestionamiento de esta noción que realiza Beatriz Sarlo en su estudio Tiempo pasado: cultura de la memoria y giro subjetivo. Asimismo, el artículo también incide en el punto de inflexión que supone esta obra en la narrativa de Prado, que con ella abandona la mayoría de los rasgos estilísticos tradicionalmente atribuidos a la llamada “Generación X” en España durante la última década del siglo XX.

Au soleil noir de Richard III : lire, traduire et mettre en scène Shakespeare
Authors: Garutti Gérald
Published: May 2018

La vengeance s’impose alors comme ressort sousjacent. Vengeance contre sa famille, dont Richard constitue le rejeton monstrueux, difforme et diffamé, maudit par sa mère dès sa naissance, écarté par ses frères, conspué par tous. Vengeance contre le monde qui l’a vomit sans lui laisser la moindre place, si bien qu’à défaut d’espace propre, c’est l’univers entier que le paria réclame désormais pour champ, dût-il, à cette fin, faire place nette de tout. La destruction : telle s’avère alors la fin poursuivie par Richard, dont le couronnement, loin d’endiguer la soif de crimes, en précipite au contraire l’ivresse. J’écris une nouvelle traduction de la pièce. Et donc nous dansons sur un fil dont la tension, cruciale pour l’élan de la langue au plateau, exige audace et acuité, inspiration et vigilance, fidélité et liberté, rigueur et initative, mémoire et imagination. Shakespeare bâtit un théâtre des paris impossibles et pourtant tenus. Tel est l’horizon asymptotique de cette traduction, sensible à la puissance de ces inconcevables visions.

Malatesta, Julián. Este infierno mio. Bogotá: Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial S.A.S., 2017. Impreso
Authors: López Rache Víctor
Published: May 2018

La Madre ha sido protagonista en novelas esenciales ya sea para ignorarla o exaltarla. O censurarle la intimidad o animarla a liberarse. La más conocida apareció en 1942 y se sigue leyendo con mirada de futuro. El hijo no sabe si la mamá murió un día u otro y parece interesarle poco y, con razón, a toda inquietud religiosa, jurídica o de vecinos, responde, no es mi culpa. Un hondo resquemor cuestiona la tradición invisible de la familia, y el lazo afectivo entre madre e hijo parece roto. El del padre ya había sido cuestionado por Kafka y una intelectual, sobreviviente de los campos de concentración, llamó al padre el verdugo del siglo XX.
Single Amino Acid Based Self-Assemblies of Cysteine and Methionine
Authors: Gour Nidhi , Koshti Bharti , P. Chandra Kanth , Shah Dhruvi , Kshatriya Vivek Shinh , Agrawal-Rajput Reena , Pandey Manoj
Published: May 2018

We report for the very first time self-assembly of Cysteine and Methionine to discrenible strucutres under neutral condition. The nature of interactions which lead to such self-assemblies was purported by coincubating assemblies in urea and mercaptoethanol. Further interaction of aggregates with short amyloidogenic dipeptide diphenylalanine (FF) was assessed. While cysteine aggregates completely disrupted FF fibres, methionine albeit triggered fibrillation. . The results presented in the manuscript are striking, since to the best of our knowledge,this is the first report which demonstrates that even non-aromatic amino acids (cysteine and methionine) can undergo spontaneous self-assembly to form ordered aggregates.
Porous Aluminophosphates as Adsorbents for the Separation of CO2/CH4 and CH4/N2 Mixtures – a Monte Carlo Simulation Study
Authors: Fischer Michael
Published: May 2018

Aluminophosphates with zeolite-like topologies (AlPOs) have received considerable attention as potential adsorbents for use in the separation of methane-containing gas mixtures. Such separations, especially the removal of carbon dioxide and nitrogen from methane, are of great technological relevance in the context of the “upgrade” of natural gas, landfill gas, and biogas. While more than 50 zeolite frameworks have been synthesised in aluminophosphate composition or as heteroatom substituted AlPO derivatives, only a few of them have been characterised experimentally with regard to their adsorption and separation behaviour. In order to predict the potential of a variety of AlPO frameworks for applications in CO2/CH4 and CH4/N2 separations, atomistic grand-canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations were performed for 53 different structures. Building on previous work, which studied CO2/N2 mixture adsorption in AlPOs (M. Fischer, Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2017, 19, 22801–22812), force field parameters for methane adsorption in AlPOs were validated through a comparison to available experimental adsorption data. Afterwards, CO2/CH4 and CH4/N2 mixture isotherms were computed for all 53 frameworks for room temperature and total pressures up to 1000 kPa (10 bar), allowing the prediction of selectivities and working capacities for conditions that are relevant for pressure swing adsorption (PSA) and vacuum swing adsorption (VSA). For CO2/CH4 mixtures, the GIS, SIV, and ATT frameworks were found to have the highest selectivities and CO2 working capacities under VSA conditions, whereas several frameworks, among them AFY, KFI, AEI, and LTA, show higher working capacities under PSA conditions. For CH4/N2 mixtures, all frameworks are moderately selective for methane over nitrogen, with ATV exhibiting a significantly higher selectivity than all other frameworks. While some of the most promising topologies are either not available in pure-AlPO4 composition or collapse upon calcination, others can be synthesised and activated, rendering them interesting candidates for future experimental studies. In addition to predictions of mixture adsorption isotherms, further simulations were performed for four selected systems in order to investigate the microscopic origins of the macroscopic adsorption behaviour, e.g. with regard to the very high CH4/N2 selectivity of ATV and the loading-dependent evolution of the heat of CO2 adsorption and CO2/CH4 selectivity of AEI and GME.

Published: May 2018

Biodegradable polymers are an active area of investigation, particularly ones that can be produced from sustainable, biobased monomers, such as copolymers of poly(butylene succinate) (PBS). In this study, we examine the enzymatic degradation of poly(butylene succinate-dilinoleic succinate) (PBS-DLS) copolymers obtained by “green” enzymatic synthesis using lipase B from Candida antarctica (CALB). The copolymers differed in their hard to soft segments ratio, from 70:30 to 50:50 wt.%. Enzymatic degradation was carried out on electrospun membranes (scaffolds) and compression-moulded films using lipase fromPseudomomas cepacia. Poly(e-caprolactone) (PCL) was used as a reference aliphatic polyester. The degradation process was monitored gravimetrically via water uptake and mass loss. After 24 days, approx. 40% mass loss was observed for fibrous materials prepared from PBS-DLS 70:30 copolymer, as compared to approx. 10% mass loss for PBS-DLS 50:50. Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and SEC analysis were used to examine changes in chemical structure. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and scanning light microscopy (LSM) revealed changes in degree of crystallinity, and changes in surface morphology, consistent with a surface erosion mechanism. We conclude that the obtained copolymers are suitable for tissue engineering applications thanks to tuneable degradation and lack of acidification during breakdown.

Elaeis oleifera (Kunth) Cortés: A neglected palm from the Ecuadorian Amazon
Authors: Montúfar Rommel , Louise Claude , Tranbarger Timothy
Published: May 2018

Knowledge of the biology of Ecuadorian palms remains very limited. A particular case is the American oil palm, Elaeis oleifera (Kunth) Cortés, first described in Ecuador in 1986. The genus Elaeis has a trans-Atlantic (Africa-America) distribution, with E. oleifera from the Neotropics and E. guineensis Jacq. from Africa. It has been hypothesized that E. oleifera derives from populations of E. guineensis, which diverged 15 million years ago. At the local level, the populations of E. oleifera have a disjunctive distribution, with isolated populations within the Amazon and Caribbean regions, frequently associated with human or archaeological settlements. Despite the spatial and historical separation between the two species, there are no reproductive barriers to the generation of fertile hybrids. This important reproductive characteristic has allowed E. oleifera to become a major source of genetic variation for the improvement and adaptability of commercial populations of E. guineensis throughout the planet. The Ecuadorian populations of E. oleifera from Taisha - with morphological, reproductive and agronomically important biochemical characteristics -  have been used for the creation of commercial hybrids, which today are planted in tropical regions.

STRUCTURE AND FUNCTIONING OF PUBLIC ORDER ENFORCEMENT BODIES IN TOWNS OF THE MIDDLE VOLGA AND TRANS-VOLGA REGION (THE END OF THE XVIII - THE MIDDLE OF THE XIX CENTURY)
Authors: Biryukova Anna Borisovna
Published: May 2018

The article analyzes changes in the structure of the law enforcement bodies of the towns of Simbirsk, Saratov, Penza, Samara (from 1851) provinces that occurred during the 1770-1850s. The author aims to examine the structure and mechanisms of interaction of public order enforcement bodies in the towns of the Middle Volga and Trans-Volga region. Over the “long XVIII century” there were attempts to regulate their activity, to separate civil police from military law enforcement bodies. At the same time the peculiarities of historical development of regional towns - “internal outskirts of the Empire” - and social situation in the provinces did not allow the authorities to completely abandon municipal military units represented by Internal Guard, and in some towns - by Cossack divisions. Moreover, public order in the provincial towns was maintained not only by the urban police but also by gendarme squads. Regardless of certain achievements in the arrangement of law enforcement structures in the provinces, the problem of staffing the law enforcement sphere remained relevant during the whole period.
INTUITION AS A METHOD OF REALITY COMPREHENSION IN HENRI BERGSON’S PHILOSOPHY
Authors: Smirnov Nikolai Alekseevich
Published: May 2018

The subject of the article is philosophy of Henri Bergson, one of the main representatives of philosophical intuition and philosophy of life. Bergson formulates specifically philosophical, ontological understanding of intuition - not just one of the subjective-psychological abilities of the man, but a particular form of the world perception. He contrasts this world perception with the analytical, mechanistic and deterministic view of reality. Intuition sees reality as organic and dynamic integrity possessing freedom and creative power, mobile, marked by unpredictability and novelty. Intuition is an address from analytical and theoretical constructions that represent the world as a static system with rigid cause-and-effect connections to living and unpredictable reality.

The article analyzes the origin, variations, artistic potential of tier composition in the context of Alexander Tyshler’s theatrical-decorative and easel art. The approaching of theatrical and easel arts in A. Tyshler’s methodology occurs on the basis of integrity of spatial vision and form-generative techniques in relation to pictorial plane and scenic dimension. Tyshler’s multi-tier areas fitted into scenic space and his easel paintings compositionally similar to this model are interpreted as an implementation of modernistic intention to uncover the artistic device, which allows the artist to discover conditional and entertaining nature of theatrical performance and pictorial art.

Suspensions and Achievement: Varying Links by Type, Frequency, and Subgroup
Authors: Hwang NaYoung
Published: May 2018

Researchers have shown that receiving suspensions is associated with negative educational outcomes. However, existing studies fail to control for unobservable differences between those students who received suspensions and those who did not. In this study, I compare achievement for a given student across school quarters with varying types and levels of suspensions by taking advantage of a unique dataset that measures student achievement at 12 time points across 3 academic years. Results show that multiple suspensions are associated with lower math and English language arts achievement even after controlling for differences between students. Furthermore, I find suggestive evidence that these associations are stronger for students who have an elevated risk of suspensions.

Agriculture is a primary source of livelihood in the Vietnamese Mekong River Delta with different land use activities. There are different potential conflicts in agricultural land use, including: water resources use and interests. Therefore, establishing feasible land use planning (LUP) in an area needs an in-depth participation and discussion among stakeholders (including: governments at different levels, local farmers, and national and international scientists). Indigenous knowledge of local farmers plays an important role in making land use decision, which can support solving land-use conflicts to achieve the most sustainable management of land resources. In this study, we integrated local knowledge into a land use planning process to assess the suitability of land use types and to project potential impacts of climate change conditions on land use decisions in the Tra Hat hamlet, one of the climate-smart village (CSV) sites in the Vietnamese Mekong River Delta. A total of two consultation meetings, using simple tools (resources mapping, timeline, seasonal calendar, wealth ranking, Venn diagram, pair wise ranking, and key informants’ interviews), were conducted, and 130 households were interviewed during a field visit in 2015. As a result, a participatory land use planning (PLUP) was implemented with active participation of the concerned communities to establish a suitable land use planning and identify the potential adaptation techniques in the near future (2020). Land use planning at the hamlet was discussed to get the agreement and the coordination among local governments, farmers and scientists on adaptation practices.

Cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia B.) is an important crop in Vietnam for domestic consumption and exportation. In recent years, a disease known as cinnamon witches’ broom (CinWB) has been discovered on cinnamon grown in Tra Bong district - Quang Ngai province. The typical symptoms of CinWB were the formation of small tumors on the stems, branches, petioles, and veins of plants. The tumors become long squid-like tassels giving the appearance of a witches’ broom. Infected plants are stunted, with delayed growth and development, causing a high reduction in the yield and quality of farmed cinnamon. In the present study, nested-PCR was applied with the universal primer pairs P1/P7 and R16F2n/R16R2. PCR products of an approximate size of 1200 bp were amplified from the twelves CinWB-showing samples collected from Tra Bong district, Quang Ngai province. All PCR products were directly sequenced in both directions using R16F2n and R16R2 primers. A BLAST search indicated that DNA sequences of all 12 PCR products were identical and show 99% identity with phytoplasma sequences of the 16SrXIV group. And the CinWB phytoplasma isolated from the CinWB-showing cinnamon from Tra Bong district - Quang Ngai province (QQNVN) was deposited in GenBank under an accession number JX413793.

Using Neuropsychological Process Scores to Identify Subtle Cognitive Decline and Predict Progression to Mild Cognitive Impairment
Authors: Thomas Kelsey R. , Edmonds Emily C. , Eppig Joel , Salmon David P. , Bondi Mark W. ,   Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative
Published: May 2018

Background:

We previously operationally-defined subtle cognitive decline (SCD) in preclinical Alzheimer’s disease (AD) using total scores on neuropsychological (NP) tests. NP process scores (i.e., provide information about how a total NP score was achieved) may be a useful tool for identifying early cognitive inefficiencies prior to objective impairment seen in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia.

Objective:

We aimed to integrate process scores into the SCD definition to identify stages of SCD and improve early detection of those at risk for decline.

Methods:

Cognitively “normal” participants from the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative were classified as “early” SCD (E-SCD; >1 SD below norm-adjusted mean on 2 process scores or on 1 process score plus 1 NP total score), “late” SCD (L-SCD; existing SCD criteria of >1 SD below norm-adjusted mean on 2 NP total scores in different domains), or “no SCD” (NC). Process scores considered in the SCD criteria were word-list intrusion errors, retroactive interference, and learning slope. Cerebrospinal fluid AD biomarkers were used to examine pathologic burden across groups.

Results:

E-SCD and L-SCD progressed to MCI 2.5–3.4 times faster than the NC group. Survival curves for E-SCD and L-SCD converged at 7-8 years after baseline. The combined (E-SCD+L-SCD) group had improved sensitivity to detect progression to MCI relative to L-SCD only. AD biomarker positivity increased across NC, SCD, and MCI groups. Conclusions: Process scores can be integrated into the SCD criteria to allow for increased sensitivity and earlier identification of cognitively normal older adults at risk for decline prior to frank impairment on NP total scores.
Relationships between Lower Limb Muscle Strength Impairments and Physical Limitations in DM1
Authors: Petitclerc Émilie , Hébert Luc J. , Mathieu Jean , Desrosiers Johanne , Gagnon Cynthia
Published: May 2018

Background:

Although adult and late-onset DM1 phenotypes DM1 present distinct lower limb weaknesses portraits, resulting physical limitations have never been described separately for each phenotype.

Objective:

To characterize the lower limb weaknesses and physical limitations among the DM1 adult and late-onset phenotypes separately and to document the contribution of weaknesses on mobility to optimize the management of this population.

Methods:

The strength of four muscle groups among 198 participants was quantified. Participants were categorized according to the severity of their muscular involvement using the Muscular Impairment Rating Scale (MIRS). Physical limitations were assessed using the Timed up-and-go (TUG), Berg Balance Scale (BBS) and 10 meters comfortable walking speed (10MWT). Multiple linear regressions were performed to identify the contribution of each muscle group to the mobility tests scores.

Results:

Late-onset demonstrated less weakness and physical limitations ( p < 0.001 – 0.002) than the adult phenotype, but 21.9–47.5% of participants with this phenotype showed mobility scores below reference values. Physical limitations were observed in the first two MIRS grades (37.5–42.1% of the participants) for the TUG and 10MWT. Ankle dorsiflexors and knee extensors were the two muscle groups that showed the strongest relationships with mobility scores.

Conclusion:

Although less impaired, the late-onset phenotype shows significant lower limb muscle weakness associated with physical limitations. The surprising presence of quantitative lower limb muscle weakness in the first two MIRS grades needs to be considered when using this scale. Both ankle dorsiflexors and knee extensors appear to be good indicators of physical limitations in DM1.

Background:

Several retrospective case series have suggested rituximab (RTX) might improve patients with refractory Myasthenia Gravis (MG).

Objective:

In this study, we aimed to evaluate prospectively the efficacy of RTX on muscle function in refractory generalized anti-acetylcholine receptor (AChR) MG patients.

Methods:

Enrolled patients received 1 g of RTX at day 0, day 14, and 6-month follow-up (M6). The primary endpoint was improvement of muscle function at 12-month (M12) based on myasthenic muscle score (MMS). Secondary endpoints were an improvement of the MG Foundation of America Postintervention Status (MGFA-PIS), respiratory forced vital capacity, occurrences of acute MG exacerbation and requirement of associated immunosuppressants and immunomodulatory agents.

Results:

Twelve patients were enrolled, and 11 completed the study. Only a single patient presented an improvement of at least 20 points on MMS at M12, although 2 patients displayed an increase of at least 18 points at M12. MGFA-PIS had improved in 55% of patients by M12. The clinical improvement was not associated with a reduction of immunosuppressant burden.

Conclusions:

These results provide data on the effect of RTX in patients with severe, refractory anti-AChR Abs generalized MG. Even though primary outcome was only reached in a single patient at M12, a beneficial effect of RTX on muscle function was seen in half of the patients at M12 and persisted in a third of patients at M18.
Current Classification and Management of Inflammatory Myopathies
Authors: Schmidt Jens
Published: May 2018

Inflammatory disorders of the skeletal muscle include polymyositis (PM), dermatomyositis (DM), (immune mediated) necrotizing myopathy (NM), overlap syndrome with myositis (overlap myositis, OM) including anti-synthetase syndrome (ASS), and inclusion body myositis (IBM). Whereas DM occurs in children and adults, all other forms of myositis mostly develop in middle aged individuals. Apart from a slowly progressive, chronic disease course in IBM, patients with myositis typically present with a subacute onset of weakness of arms and legs, often associated with pain and clearly elevated creatine kinase in the serum. PM, DM and most patients with NM and OM usually respond to immunosuppressive therapy, whereas IBM is largely refractory to treatment. The diagnosis of myositis requires careful and combinatorial assessment of (1) clinical symptoms including pattern of weakness and paraclinical tests such as MRI of the muscle and electromyography (EMG), (2) broad analysis of auto-antibodies associated with myositis, and (3) detailed histopathological work-up of a skeletal muscle biopsy. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current classification, diagnostic pathway, treatment regimen and pathomechanistic understanding of myositis.
