A mathematical model of semiconductor detector gamma-efficiency calibration for rectangular cuboid (brick-shape) sources
Authors: Mihaljevic Nikola , Jovanovic Slobodan , Dlabac Aleksandar , Badawi Mohamed
Published: September 2018

Rectangular cuboid (rectangular parallelepiped), i. e., brick-shape sources
are not really common in general gamma-spectrometry practice with
semiconductor detectors, where axially symmetrical sources prevail. However,
in some particular applications, like radioactivity control of food or
construction materials (for monitoring and regulatory purposes, radiological
emergency preparedness, or in the aftermath of nuclear accidents), brick
shapes may come to significance. In order to simplify routine/repetitive low
activity measurements, it is easier and more practical to measure the
radioactivity of these sources as such, i. e., without transforming them
into ?regular? (cylindrical or Marinelli) shapes. This saves considerably on
laboratory time, workforce and consumables-thus eventually cutting the
cost of analysis and improving laboratory performance. In addition,
the accuracy of the analytical results is enhanced, as the
possibilities for systematic errors are reduced. To that aim, in the present
work a mathematical model for brick-source efficiency calibration is
developed. The well known, accurate and widely used efficiency transfer
principle is applied, together with detector efficiency calculations based
on the effective solid angle W concept. For testing purposes, comparisons
are made with previously developed and well established mathematical models
for detector calibration involving axially symmetrical sources
(point, disc, and cylinder). Namely, brick sources were regarded as a
sort of interpolation between the outer and inner cylinder of the same
height, for which efficiencies could be accurately determined by numerical
calculations (software ANGLE). For the sake of completeness, the
equivoluminous cylinders were taken into account as well. Brick shape
sources of various sizes and proportions were examined; when approaching
zero dimensions, results were obtained for point and disc sources. All
calculations were performed in gamma energy range 50-3000 keV. The results
are consistent and logical, with no discrepancies indicating bugs or
systematic errors-thus convincingly confirming the fundamentality and
reliability of the model. The model is about to be incorporated into ANGLE
software as a new functionality, so as to make it available to gamma
spectrometry community.

Published: September 2018

Background/Aim. Neovascular glaucoma (NVG) is a secondary glaucoma caused by occlusion of the trabecular network of newly formed blood vessels. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravitreal injections of bevacizumab before trabeculectomy with mitomycin C (MMC) for the treatment of NVG. Methods. A prospective and open-label study was conducted from May 2013 to December 2014 on consecutive NVG patients who underwent intravitreal injections of bevacizumab and a primary trabeculectomy with MMC. All patients were followed-up at least for 12 months. Success was defined as an intraocular pressure (IOP) of ? 21 mm Hg with or without topical ocular hypotensive medication. Results. Fourteen eyes of 12 diabetic patients fulfilled the respective demands of the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The mean (? standard deviation) follow-up period was 15.0 (? 2.0) months (range, 12 to 19 months). After one year of follow-up, 11 (78.6%) eyes had an IOP ? 21 mmHg. The mean IOP was significantly reduced from 42.4 (? 9.7) mmHg preoperatively to 18.4 (? 2.9) mmHg postoperatively (p < 0.0001). Regarding surgical complications, 6 months of trabeculectomy, hyphaema was observed in 3 (21.4%) eyes, macular edema in one (7.1%) eye and recurrence of neovascularization requiring intravitreal bevacizumab injection in 2 (14.2%) eyes. Conclusion. Preoperative intravitreal bevacizumab may be effective as adjunctive treatment for trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C for neovascular glaucoma patients.

Published: September 2018

Background/Aim. Corona mortis vascular anastomoses (CMVA) must be located during surgical gold standard treatment method for displaced acetabular fractures. This study aimed to answer the following questions: What is the clinical frequency observed of CMVA? What is the composition of CMVA: arterial, venous or a combination? Methods. A retrospective review was made of 31 patients (24 males, 7 females; mean age 43.5 years) who underwent surgery for acetabular fractures between 2011 and 2015. The anterior intra-pelvic (AIP) approach was applied to all patients. By examination of the intraoperative CMVA compositions, the frequency of CMVA was determined together with identification of venous or arterial formation and distance from the pubic symphysis. Results. CMVA was observed during dissection in 29 (94%) patients and was ligated. In 14 (45%) patients, CMVA was recorded as venous, in 7 (23%) patients as arterial and in 8 (26%) patients as both. The mean distance of CMVA from the pubic symphysis was 35.9 mm (range 21.6?48.7 mm). Conclusion. The results showed very high CMVA frequency in the AIP approach, higher than previously reported in the English literature. Orthopedic surgeons should be aware about CMVA while doing this approach in surgical treatment of acetabular fractures.

Published: September 2018

Introduction. Multifocal cerebritis is a rare and severe disease and just a several cases caused by Listeria monocytogenes were described in the literature. Case report. A 64 year old man was admitted to the hospital with disturbed consciounsness (Glasgow Coma Scale score: 9) after being febrile for 16 days with history of fever, headache and middle ear pain. He did not have any other comorbidities neither he was immunocompromised. Penicillin allergy was noted for him. On neurologic exam, meningeal or focal neurologic signs were not evident, but computed tomography (CT) brain scan with contrast injection showed 3 hypodense zones in the occipital and 1 in the right temporal lobe. Laboratory findings in blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were indicative for the infectious nature of changes in the endocranium (multifocal cerebritis). Initial therapy was the combination of cefotaxime, amikacin and metronidazole, but after the isolation of L. monocytogenes from CSF and blood culture, therapy was switched to co-trimoxazole. Recovery of consciouscness with establisment of alert state occurred after 6 days of co-trimoxazole administration. Total therapy took 36 days. During that period all clinical and laboratory parameters normalized. The patient was discharged as recovered, with sequelas of amnesia and slurring of speech. Conclusion. In the treatment of multifocal cerebritis caused by L. monocytogenes, adequate choice and longterm therapy with antibiotics are necessary. The drug of choice is ampicillin but in the case of allergy to it, cotrimoxazole is a good replacement.

Un viaje ancestral: mujeres afrocolombianas, indígenas y campesinas del valle de aburrá en diálogo de saberes intercultural
Authors: Uribe Cardona Erika Paulina
Published: September 2018

El presente trabajo pretende reflexionar y visibilizar el papel político que han tenido las mujeres como guardianas, custodias y transmisoras de las culturas ancestrales de los pueblos indígenas, afrocolombianos y campesinos. Así mismo, reconocer la resistencia y re-existencia de algunas experiencias organizativas de diversas mujeres en Medellín que luchan, desde su autonomía, por mantener su identidad, sus prácticas y saberes en un contexto de ciudad hegemónico y excluyente. Esto con el fin de transformar las realidades que las afectan y subvertir el modelo político, social, económico y cultural que como mujeres afros, indígenas y campesinas las niega, invisibiliza y ubica en un lugar de subordinación. La importancia de este trabajo radica en darle lugar y legitimidad a los saberes ancestrales y, en este sentido, posicionar a la mujer como sujeto fundamental en las luchas políticas y culturales que se gestan, desde procesos particulares, y emergen como propuestas interculturales y decoloniales que ayudan a combatir el modelo occidental capitalista “de muerte”.
Enseñanza-aprendizaje con prospectiva de paz en la formación policial

Published: September 2018

La investigación, al ser un ejercicio de naturaleza humana, permite realizar la descripción de una porción de realidad desde su objeto de estudio; por tanto, este trabajo investigativo permitió abordar algunos aportes de la teoría crítica de Frankfurt a través del ejercicio filosófico-reflexivo, orientado a pensar lo social desde lo humano con el fin de transformar una postura tradicional, desde lo crítico, contrastando la heteronimia que seculariza las voluntades humanas, pensando las problemáticas sociales desde el reconocimiento del otro como sujeto y generando acciones encaminadas a la emancipación de los fenómenos tradicionales como es la “Cultura de Guerra” desde la educación policial.
A opressão simbólica e a resposta do oprimido
Authors: Rocha de Queiroz e Sousa Raquel , da Silva Brugger Andrey
Published: September 2018

O presente trabalho tem o objetivo de conectar a teoria criada por Pierre Bourdieu sobre a violência simbólica e o texto de Audre Lorde, The use of anger: women responding to racism do seu livro Sister Outsider; demonstrando a importância do debate sobre a relação entre dominante e dominado a partir do viés racial, tema abordado por ambos autores em seus textos. Com este fito, pretendemos diferenciar os resultados objetivos do ódio, raiva e culpa, bem como o modo que as agressões invisíveis repercutem na vida do oprimido. Tendo como foco o racismo na vida da “mulher de cor” (expressão utilizada por Lorde para englobar todas as mulheres não brancas) que ainda nos dias de hoje, em uma pirâmide social, se encontram em desvantagem quanto aos demais indivíduos. Faz parte dos objetivos também trazer à tona a reação do oprimido como consequência natural dos séculos de silenciamento, privação e desumanização, analisando os mecanismos institucionais para pacificação social.

Published: September 2018

Insurance companies, being one of the most important links in the financial system of the country, make a significant contribution to the development of the national economy. Insufficient stability and a low level of dynamics of insurance development are conditioned by poor capitalization of insurance companies and absence of methodological complex, which would allow to create financial strategy with high degree of efficiency. In the Russian Federation today there are 236 insurance companies, of them 61 are in the Astrakhan region. Every year insurance companies cease their activity due to the license revocation. The study of the insurance market of the Astrakhan region and Russia using modern methods of scientific research, including mathematical models, made it possible to establish the relationship of insurance indicators with GDP and GRP. Studying the developing insurance market allowed to infer about the expediency of using the indicator “depth of the insurance market”. The forecast of this indicator until 2020 was based on the consensus forecast of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation. Development of the insurance market and, consequently, the economy of the region and of the country is affected by many factors. The following indicators were considered as factors: dollar rate, price per gram of gold, MICEX index, central rate of the Central Bank of Russia, and the inflation rate. The constructed multifactorial regression model helped to establish the relationship between the volume of insurance premiums of voluntary insurance, the dollar exchange rate and the level of inflation. The given research algorithm can be used in various fields. The worked out forecast of the parameter of depth of insurance market in the Astrakhan region and Russia proved positive tendency in developing regional and Russian insurance market.

Published: September 2018

The article analyzes the state of the health sector in the Russian Federation in the regions of the North Caucasus Federal District, reveals the level and reasons of inequality in the capacity of medicine in federal districts and regions, identifies the main directions for the development and reforming the healthcare system in the country and the subjects of the North Caucasus Federal District. The complex comparative analysis of the state and dynamics of the development of the healthcare in Russia and the regions of the North Caucasus Federal District made it possible to reveal the current challenges, causes and areas of backwardness, and to justify the need to overcome health inequalities in the subjects of the North Caucasus. It has been stated that in recent years there has been observed a positive trend in the development of healthcare in Russia and in the regions of the North Caucasus Federal District. However, the District with its constituent entities are far behind the average indicators of Russia and other federal districts and entities in terms of the level and rates of development of health care. The slowdown is observed at the level of development of the material and technical base, personnel and resource support, per capita financing and salaries of medical personnel. The overall gap in health care is reflected in the health indicators of the population. In the regions of the North Caucasus, the growth rate of the life expectancy is much lower, and the morbidity and mortality rates of the population, including infant mortality, are higher than the national average. There has been suggested measures of gradual reforming health care system to overcome the gap, which corresponds to the general provisions of the RF Presidential Order No. 598 of May 7, 2012 “On improving state policy in health care”

Diet is an important component in the treatment of tuberculosis (TB). The diet is a daily nutrition fulfillment. The nutrition means macronutrient and micronutrient. The lack of macronutrient and micronutrient intake in tuberculosis patients could be a high risk for patients. Lack of nutrition can be addressed from the low level of BMI in TB patients. Both malnutrition and TB influence each other, malnutrition increases the risk for TB and TB could cause malnutrition. The aim of this study was to describe the diet of tuberculosis patients in the intensive phase. The study was conducted in two primary health cares in Bandung city. This study was a descriptive-quantitative research that used consecutive sampling method. The samples were 36 TB patients in the intensive phase.  The data was gathered using 3 days food record and analyzed using the descriptive statistics method. The study’s result indicated that 86,1% of TB patients consumed calories less than their need, 80,6% of TB patients consumed carbohydrates meet the needs, 83,3% of TB patients consumed protein less than necessity,  55,6% of  TB patients consumed fat meet their needs, and 100% of TB patients consumed vitamin D less their need. The study results showed that the diet of TB patients was less than their need. This study concludes that in general, the diet in TB patients is still less than their need, especially protein and vitamin D. While carbohydrates and fat met the patients’need. Based on this result, the researcher recommends that the primary health care in Bandung city should provide counseling services about various food types that need to be consumed by TB patients to fulfill calory, protein, and vitamin D daily needs.

Published: September 2018

The limitation of territorial expansion and the implementation of the idea of a compact city are generally accepted paradigms of spatial development of contemporary cities. In consequence, actions are taken to improve the quality of city landscape and revitalise vacant areas. This study approaches the process of city regeneration as transformation and supplementation of the existing urban structure as well as creation of multifunctional, structurally, socially and ecologically sustainable spaces. The article presents the problem of creation of new-inner city residential areas. The study was conducted on three housing estates located in post-industrial and post-military areas: Harbourside Development in Bristol (UK), City Park and Ułańskie Estate in Poznań (Poland) and Browar Gdański in Gdańsk (Poland). The article includes analyses of relations between the estates and their surroundings, spatial structure parameters and architectural, urban and scenic characteristics. It includes assessment of the legibility, consistency, diversity and quality of the urban landscape.
Macro-regional differentiation of the world: Authors’ concept and its application
Authors: Anděl J. , Bičík I. , Bláha J. D.
Published: September 2018

This article is a continuation of the same authors’ study entitled ‘Concepts And Delimitation Of The World’s Macro-Regions’ prepared for the 1/2018 of this journal (Anděl et al. 2018). The main aim of the first part was an evaluation of the concepts and factors which have been used as a basis for the delimitation of the different macro-regions of the world. In this second part, the authors propose their own macro-regionalisation of the world – this is a combination of four concepts, with relatively different contents: those of De Blij and Muller (1997), Cole (1996), Huntington (1996) and Hampl (2009). This macro-regionalisation arises from sociocultural affiliation, economic interrelationships and territorial continuity. Along with the concept of the macro-regional differentiation of the world itself, we focus on evaluating the importance of the shaping of macro-regions, as well as assessing the positive and negative features of individual concepts and their influence on the macro-regional differentiation of the world.

Published: September 2018

O texto analisa parcialmente elementos da 27a edição da Bienal de São Paulo, em especial seu contexto institucional. Como categoria metodológica para a análise é operado o conceito de display, conforme elaborado pelo curador e crítico Pablo Lafuente, no qual considera-se não apenas a proposta curatorial de uma exposição e sua articulação arquitetônica, mas todos seus elementos conectados, tais como obras, textos (de parede e também das etiquetas, catálogos, folders, audio-guides, entre outros), a história e perspectiva institucional e a participação do visitante (pretendida e efetiva). Ainda que a análise não se pretenda exaustiva, busca desenhar possibilidades de operações no que diz respeito aos estudos expositivos. Como pano de fundo, enfoca-se a noção de nacional/internacional, que organiza edições da Bienal de São Paulo desde o ano de sua fundação, em 1951, conforme o modelo propagado pelas Exposições Universais do século 19 e, em particular pela Bienal de Veneza (1895), referência para o evento brasileiro.

Kimyasal bir reaksiyon olan transesterifikasyon, biyodizel üretiminde en yaygın kullanılan yöntemdir. Mikrodalga ısıtma sistemi kullanılarak gerçekleştirilen transesterifikasyon reaksiyonlarında, konvansiyonel sistemlere kıyasla büyük oranda hız ve verim artışı sağlandığı bilinmektedir. Yapılan literatür taramasında, mikrodalga teknolojisi ile gerçekleştirilen biyodizel üretimlerinin yalnızca laboratuvar ölçeklerinde sınırlı kaldığı, henüz pilot ya da büyük ölçekte bir üretimin gerçekleştirilemediği görülmüştür. Bu çalışmada; tasarlanıp imal edilen mikrodalga destekli biyodizel reaktörü kullanılarak, bazik transesterifikasyon yöntemi ile mikrodalga ışıma altında rafine ve atık ayçiçek yağlarından pilot ölçekte biyodizeller üretilmiştir. Deneylerde sabit reaksiyon koşulları (6:1 molar metanol:yağ, %1.0 KOH (mKOH/myağ), 60⁰C) altında  reaksiyon süresinin transesterifikasyon tamamlanma oranı ve temel biyodizel özellikleri üzerindeki etkisi incelenmiştir. Ayrıca, rafine ayçiçek yağından hem mikrodalga ışıma altında, hem de reaktördeki konvansiyonel ısıtma sistemi (elektrikli rezistans) kullanılarak biyodizel numuneleri üretilmiş, böylece iki metodun net olarak kıyaslanması sağlanmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre; mikrodalga ısıtma sistemi kullanımında rafine ayçiçek yağı transesterifikasyonun 5 dakika sonunda tamamlandığı, konvansiyonel ısıtma sistemi kullanımında ise 60 dakika sonunda dahi yeterli ester içeriğine sahip biyodizelin üretilemediği ve reaksiyonun tamamlanabilmesi için daha uzun reaksiyon sürelerine ihtiyaç duyulduğu tespit edilmiştir. Atık ayçiçek yağı kullanımında ise belirlenen reaksiyon koşullarında istenen düzeyde dönüşümünün sağlanamadığı, ancak literatürdeki benzer konvansiyonel transesterifikasyon reaksiyonlarına göre çok daha kısa sürede ve daha yüksek verimle metil ester elde edilebildiği gözlemlenmiştir.
