Published: December 2016

O Transtorno de Déficit de Atenção e Hiperatividade (TDAH) é um distúrbiocaracterizado pela falta de atenção, agitação, impulsividade podendolevar a dificuldades emocionais e de relacionamento, bem como o baixo desempenho escolar. O tratamento de crianças com TDAH envolve uma abordagem múltipla, englobando intervenções psicossociais e psicofarmacológicas,e exige um esforço coordenado, entre os profissionais da área da saúde em conjunto com educadores e pais. O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a percepção da massoterapeuta e da mãe sobre o comportamento de uma criança com TDAH do tipo desatento, após a participação da criança nas sessões de massagem Tui Na. Trata-se de um estudo de caso, descritivo com abordagem qualitativa. Os dados foram coletados por meio de uma entrevista semiestruturada que foi gravada e transcrita posteriormente, sendo submetidos a análise de conteúdo. A massagem foi uma forma de tratamento complementar importante na melhora da sintomatologia do TDAH, deixando a criança mais calma, relaxada,concentrada e sociável, melhorando o seu relacionamento familiare social. Acredita-se que o toque proporcionado por meio da técnica de massagem tenha sido uma das principais ferramentas para a criação de vínculo entre terapeuta-criança-família-escola, fortalecendo a confiançanecessária para o estabelecimento das relações sociais positivas.
Tratamento da fibromialgia por acupuntura baseado na diferenciação de padrões: Revisão sistemática
Authors: Oliveira Pedro Couto , Silva Maria Cristina Salimena , Silva Maria Cristina Salimena , Ferreira Arthur De Sá
Published: December 2016

A falta de diferenciação dos padrões para o tratamento por acupuntura dos pacientes com fibromialgia nos estudos clínicos pode comprometer a indicação dos acupontos pela relação limitada e subjetiva entre a fisiopatologia ocidental e da medicina chinesa. Este estudo objetiva identificar se os estudos clínicos que não têm utilizado a diferenciação de padrões para prescrição dos acupontos para pacientes com fibromialgia apresentam resultados favoráveis no controle da dor. Foi conduzida uma revisão sistemática com análise qualitativa dos estudos clínicos com acupuntura em pacientes com fibromialgia na base PubMed com as palavras-chave: “fibromialgia” (fibromyalgia) e “acupuntura” (acupuncture). Foram encontrados 16 artigos, dos quais foram incluídos 4 estudos randomizados controlados. Três estudos relataram os acupontos utilizados, mas nenhum deles elaborou o tratamento segundo o padrão identificado com os Quatro Métodos de exame. Verificam-se resultados favoráveis na utilização da acupuntura para alívio da dor mesmo na ausência da diferenciação de padrões. Entretanto, a pequena quantidade de estudos limita a generalização dessa observação. Estudos controlados randomizados de alta qualidade metodológica utilizando a diferenciação de padrões como um dos fatores de análise são necessários para estabelecer a utilidade deste procedimento diagnóstico na escolha dos acupontos para tratamento dos pacientes com fibromialgia.
Influência da reflexologia podal na qualidade do sono: estudo de caso
Authors: Machado Fatima Aparecida Vieira , Rodrigues Carla Maria , Da Silva Patricia Amara
Published: December 2016

O sono é o resultado de um mecanismo complexo, envolvendo a ação conjunta de várias áreas do sistema nervoso. O ciclo sono-vigília é essencial para restaurar as funções orgânicas. Na sociedade moderna, as atividades diárias produtoras de estresse podem levar ao desenvolvimento da insônia. A insônia é definida pela dificuldade de iniciar e ou manter o sono, presença de sono não reparador, de quantidade inadequada ou de qualidade insatisfatória, durante um período não inferior a um mês. A insônia primária está associada ao alto nível de alerta fisiológico e psicológico durante a noite e condicionamento negativo para dormir. O tratamento inclui terapias farmacológicas e não farmacológicas, entre estas, encontra-se a reflexologia podal, uma técnica de massoterapia que, através de pressões em diferentes regiões dos pés, atinge reflexamente os órgãos correspondentes, revitalizando-os e reequilibrando o organismo. O objetivo deste trabalho foi verificar os efeitos da técnica de reflexologia podal na qualidade do sono, na orma de estudo de caso, em três voluntárias que receberam entre seis a oito sessões da técnica completa, por 30 minutos, semanalmente. Foi utilizado como instrumento de avaliação o Índice de Qualidade do Sono de Pittsburgh (IQSP) imediatamente antes e após a realização das sessões. Os resultados mostraram um efeito positivo na melhora da qualidade do sono em duas voluntárias, demonstrando que esta técnica de massagem pode ser um promissor recurso complementar à abordagem biomédica. Estudos devem ser realizados para um maior entendimento a respeito de seu mecanismo de ação e padronização dos resultados.
Reflexões sobre o uso da nomenclatura “medicina tradicional” pela Naturologia
Authors: Stern Fábio Leandro
Published: December 2016

Objetivou-se com esse trabalho ampliar as discussões conceituais sobre a Naturologia, problematizando a questão do uso do termo tradicional aplicado às medicinas e práticas em saúde usadas por naturólogos no Brasil, questão essa que foi levantada no IV Fórum Conceitual de Naturologia, em 2013, mas que não foi aprofundada. Na primeira seção desse texto se fez uma revisão da literatura sobre o termo tradição. Na segunda parte se apresentaram os estudiosos contrários ao uso do termo medicinas tradicionais no Ocidente, as quais, grosso modo, declaram que o que é tradicional em outras partes do mundo não pode necessariamente ser considerado como tradicional no Brasil. Na terceira seção se apresentaram os argumentos favoráveis ao uso da terminologia, pautando-se na noção de eficácia simbólica de Lévi-Strauss e a característica de que as práticas não hegemônicas em saúde devolvem a dimensão simbólica ao processo de cura, o que as tornaria – e também a Naturologia, por si própria –, tradicionais.

Authors: Reis Beatriz da Costa Aguiar Alves , Azzalis Ligia Ajaime , Junqueira Virginia Berlanga Campos , Feder David , Fonseca Fernando L. A.
Published: December 2016

Introdução: O câncer de mama é o mais incidente na população feminina mundial e a quinta causa de morte por câncer em geral, sendo a causa mais frequente entre as mulheres. Pacientes com câncer de mama fazem uso da Medicina Alternativa e Complementar (MAC), entretanto poucos estudos relacionam qualquer alteração no progresso da doença com o uso dessas práticas. Objetivo: Avaliar a influência que a MAC exerce no tratamento do câncer de mama, no desenvolvimento da doença e na qualidade de vida das pacientes. Metodologia: Fez-se uma revisão sistemática nos bancos de dados Scielo e PubMed com os descritores “medicina”, “alternativa”, “complementar”, “câncer”, “mama”, “eventos adversos” e “quimioterapia” e foram considerados artigos publicados entre os anos 2010 e 2013, escritos na língua portuguesa, inglesa e espanhola. A pesquisa resultou em 21 referências. Após a análise dos títulos e resumos dos documentos, 06 artigos foram separados e incluídos na amostra final. Resultados: Constatou-se que a MAC é composta por diversas práticas, com técnicas e princípios peculiares, que se encontram em diferentes estágios de maturidade no conhecimento e afirmação científicos. Conclusão: Apesar de não ser capaz de substituir a medicina convencional no tratamento do câncer de mama, a MAC se torna uma opção de tratamento complementar para os sintomas resultantes dos procedimentos terapêuticos habituais do tratamento desta doença. No entanto, mais estudos sobre o uso da MAC no tratamento do câncer de mama são necessários para fomentar a evolução das práticas voltadas para a qualidade de vida dos pacientes.

A APLICAÇÃO DE TÉCNICAS DE IMPOSIÇÃO DE MÃOS NO CÂNCER: REVISÃO SISTEMÁTICA DA LITERATURA
Authors: Motta Mourão Roxo , Barros Filice
Published: December 2016

O objetivo é analisar, por revisão sistemática da literatura, o uso e o efeito de técnicas de imposição de mãos (TIM): Reiki, Therapeutic Touch e Healing Touch, no câncer. Foram realizadas buscas no Pub-Med/MedLine, Lilacs, Web of Science, Ebsco e Embase, em outubro de 2013, selecionados 19 artigos e analisados em relação à: metodologia, objeto de estudo, fatores de impacto dos jornais, países de desenvolvimento, ano de publicação e resultados alcançados. A literatura mostra: predominância de metodologia quantitativa; uso das TIM no cuidado de sintomas de ansiedade ou dor provocados pelo câncer; predomínio de publicações no EUA; publicação do primeiro artigo indexado em 1999; publicações em jornais de baixo ou nenhum fator de impacto conforme o Journal Citation Reports; e predominância de estudos com resultados estatisticamente significativos. Apesar de a maioria dos estudos apresentarem resultados positivos, nenhum avaliou o impacto das TIM no foco da doença, o que gera uma lacuna neste campo do conhecimento e a secundarização destas técnicas como recurso de tratamento.
Miró e a iminência do não-poder
Authors: Antelo Raúl
Published: December 2016

O artigo rearma os ensaios de Carl Einstein a respeito de Joan Miró. Dessa maneira, se destaca a tentativa do autor de Negerplastik de precisar uma mitologia atual, viva, fundada em aspectos temáticos e formais do cubismo, contribuindo assim para uma expressão figurativa daquelas forças da ação criativa que irrompem, ora a partir das camadas espirituais arcaicas, ora daquilo que esteve sepulto até o presente. A alucinação, a metamorfose, o primitivismo são, assim, princípios estéticos capitais, com os quais Einstein delineia um Miró de uma simplicidade pré-histórica que nos conduziria a uma contemporaneidade cada vez mais arcaica.
La voz impropia: poesía y política
Authors: Porrúa Ana
Published: December 2016

Este trabajo se propone revisar algunos clivajes de la creación o la inscripción de las voces políticas en la poesía de América Latina a partir de procesos de apropiación y expropiación, asociada a la potencia de una figura anacrónica, el canto. En este sentido, estar adentro o afuera del canto, supone tanto la homogeneidad de ciertos tonos, el elegíaco, el imperativo, o el desalojo de los mismos, como la asunción de un punto de vista sonoro en relación con una idea de la temporalidad histórica que funcionaría como filtro, como tímpano que silencia las otras voces bajo el peso de las metáforas que hacen pie en la naturaleza, o como superficie perforada por donde la voz de los otros se filtra.
The Demonization of Woman in Femi Osofisan’s Women of Owu
Authors: NNANNA Ndubuisi
Published: December 2016

Critical opinions on Femi Osofisan’s Women of Owu are largely stereotypical. They lament the plunder of Owu and compare it to that of Troy, drawing some parallels between Euripides’ The Trojan Women and Osofisan’s adaptation of it. There is a clear effort to assume some kind of historical and cultural affinity between the women of ancient Owu and Troy. But most of these assumptions are apparently contrived. It seems that there has been no attempt to consider Osofisan’s play in its own right. This study is an endeavor in that direction. It adopts the Reader-Response approach as a methodology to conduct a phenomenological analysis of Osofisan’s Women of Owu in order to discover the extent to which it truly reflects the picture of the Owu war of the 17th century and portrays the cultural identity of the women of Owu.  It also compares Euripides’ play with Osofisan’s version in the context of their individual historical backgrounds to examine how each play captures the realities of its specific cultural milieu. The conclusion of this paper is that in an attempt to find parallels to the source of his play, Osofisan has inadvertently extrapolated the cultural essence of a society that had little regard for women into the cultural history of an African community, where women had a lot of respect, and in the process, has demonized womanhood and given impetus to some flawed assumptions and misinterpretations of history. The recommendation of this paper is, therefore, that African dramatists should be conscious of the peculiarities of cultures and the danger in attempting to find contrived affinities between African and Western cultures in an effort to lend some kind of credibility to their creative endeavors.
“Infectious Supercarelessness” in Discussing Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria
Authors: Greenspan Neil S.
Published: December 2016

Many bacterial pathogens are exhibiting resistance to increasing numbers of antibiotics making it much more challenging to treat the infections caused by these microbes. In many reports in the media and perhaps even in discussions among physicians and biomedical scientists, these bacteria are frequently referred to as “bugs” with the prefix “super” appended. This terminology has a high potential to elicit unjustified inferences and fails to highlight the broader evolutionary context. Understanding the full range of biological and evolutionary factors that influence the spread and outcomes of infections is critical to formulating effective individual therapies and public health interventions. Therefore, more accurate terminology should be used to refer these multidrug-resistant bacteria.

Published: December 2016

OBJETIVOS: Avaliar os fatores associados ao diagnóstico de pré-eclâmpsia (PE) precoce ou tardia. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: estudo retrospectivo com 208 gestações com PE na Maternidade Escola Assis Chateaubriand – Universidade Federal do Ceará, no período de um ano (2014 a 2015). O diagnóstico e a gravidade da doença basearam-se nos níveis pressóricos, proteinúria, dados clínicos e laboratoriais. Os fatores de risco considerados foram idade, paridade, histórico de PE em gestação anterior ou na família, níveis pressóricos, dopplervelocimetria. A PE foi considerada pré-eclâmpsia início precoce (PEP) quando diagnosticada antes da 34ª semana e pré-eclâmpsia de início tardio (PET) após a 34ª semana. RESULTADOS: Das 208 pacientes analisadas, obtivemos 156 (75%) casos de PET e 52 (25%) de PEP. Entre as primíparas (123), 62,8% eram PET (p=0,06). Pacientes que iniciaram o pré-natal com níveis pressóricos mais elevados tiveram maior incidência de PEP. CONCLUSÃO: Dos fatores de risco mais associados com PE grave, observou-se que a Hipertensão arterial crônica foi o mais prevalente; e, dos fatores de risco moderado, a primiparidade, a história prévia de doença hipertensiva em gestação anterior e o Índice Massa Corporal (IMC) elevado foram os mais encontrados. Pacientes que iniciam pré-natal com níveis pressóricos elevados ou hipertensão prévia tem maior risco de desenvolver PEP.

Complicações cardíacas estão entre as principais causas de morbimortalidade no perioperatório. Adequada avaliação cardiovascular, portanto, é fundamental para a identificação de patologias e potenciais fatores de risco e, quando necessário, otimização clínica do paciente no perioperatório. Sendo assim, tem-se, com esse estudo, o objetivo de revisar as mais recentes recomendações de avaliação cardiovascular e de estratégias para redução na incidência de eventos cardíacos adversos no perioperatório de cirurgias não cardíacas. Para esse fim, realizou-se revisão de literatura na base de dados MEDLINE (PubMed). Tornando mais aplicáveis os instrumentos de avaliação cardiovascular, contribui-se para redução na incidência de morbimortalidade perioperatória associada a eventos cardíacos adversos, redução de custos com hospitalização e solicitação abusiva de exames complementares, além de menores taxas de suspensão de procedimentos eletivos.

OBJETIVO: Apresentar uma manifestação atípica de um angiofibroma extranasofaríngeo (AEN) e revisar a literatura acerca do tema. MÉTODOS: relato de caso de uma paciente de doze anos com um AEN de seio maxilar e revisão da literatura de relatos publicados a respeito dos AENs na base de dados PubMed. RESULTADOS: AENs ocorrem mais comumente durante a segunda década e 30% do total de casos ocorrem em mulheres. O local mais comum de ocorrência é a maxila, seguido da cavidade nasal. A análise histológica é similar entre os AENs e seus correspondentes na nasofaringe, mas estudo imunohistoquímico adicional pode ser útil para a confirmação do diagnóstico, uma vez que alguns AENs podem mimetizar outros tipos de tumor. CONCLUSÕES: O diagnóstico de um AEN deve ser levado em conta em todo tipo de lesão tumoral sangrante, uma vez que podem ocorrer em quase toda localização em cabeça e pescoço, tornando seu diagnóstico um desafio.

Este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar o Transtorno do Déficit de Atenção com Hiperatividade (TDAH), com base em uma revisão bibliográfica, considerando as contribuições dos autores pesquisados para a conceituação e o entendimento mais aprofundado do distúrbio, oportunizando uma reflexão sobre o TDAH, buscando compreender o transtorno em suas causas, efeitos e formas de tratamento para amenizar seus sintomas. O TDAH vem ocupando lugar de destaque na vida dos pais e também de profissionais de saúde, sendo considerado o principal distúrbio psicológico em crianças. Estudos têm demonstrado que o TDAH aparece com maior frequência na primeira infância, em torno dos 3 anos de idade. O TDAH é um distúrbio neurofisiológico, com sinais de falta de atenção e impulsividade não adequadas ao nível de desenvolvimento, prejudiciais a aprendizagem em crianças, principalmente na idade escolar. Não existe marcador biológico para o TDAH, seu diagnóstico é clínico, baseado em entrevista com o paciente, pais, professores e pessoas que lidam com o portador. Este trabalho foi desenvolvido através de levantamento bibliográfico, obtidos por meio de livros e artigos de revistas científicas especializadas de conteúdo confiável.

Published: December 2016

The stimulatory action produced by yeast ghosts on alcoholic fermentation is greatest when they are added to the grape must after the fermentation of the first 50 g per liter of sugar. If they are added either before or after this point, their effect is diminished. This stimulation acts along with existing traditional fermentation activators. In stuck wine, the treatment with yeast ghosts must be followed by an inoculation of a yeast population in su'table physiological state.

La couleur des vins rouges. lre partie : les équilibres des anthocyanes et des tanins
Authors: Glories Yves
Published: December 2016

The study covers the equilibria of a mixture of five free anthocyanins from Cabernet Sauvignon skins, depending on the solvent, the tanin content, the pH, and the S02 concentration of the medium. The various constants of the proton transfer, cular extinction of the two coloured forms are determined using the technique of chemical relaxation of these molecules applied to the pH jump ; from these results, the constant of the reaction of the anthocyanins with the S02 on the one hand, and the calculation of the colour of the solutions of these molecules on the other hand, can be determined. From the same study with combinations between tanins and anthocyanins, it is possible to explain the influence of their structure on the stabilization of colour in the solutions. In the light of these results, the chemical origin of the wine colour and its variations are discussed.

When yeast ghosts are added to grape must they have the effect of limiting endocellular and parietal accumulations of fatty acids toxic to the yeasts. However the concentration of hexanoic, octanoic, decanoic and dodecanoic acids in the must is only siightly affected. The concentration of ethyl esters is unchanged. This result is particularly important for white wines, where these substances contribute to the aromatic characteristics.

Dosage simultané des acides sorbique et benzoïque dans les vins par chromatographie en phase gazeuse
Authors: Ureta F.
Published: December 2016

Pour stabiliser les vins contenant des sucres fermentescibles on ajoute parfois, pour renforcer l'action de l'anhydride sulfureux, de l'acide sorbique (produit autorisé à dose limite) ou de l'acide benzoïque (produit interdit), dont les propriétés anti-fongiques sont bien connues. L'acide sorbique est dégradable par les bactéries du vin et les produits formés présentent des odeurs désagréables et persistantes (odeur de géranium).

L'acide benzoïque est stable vis à vis des bactéries et beaucoup moins cher que l'acide sorbique aussi, bien qu'interdit, il est parfois utilisé.

Le dosage de ces substances est difficile par voie chimique et il est fait appel aux méthodes par chromatographie en phase gazeuse, (BERTRAND et SARRE, 1975 et 1977) qui permettent de les doser individuellement ; dans certains cas, il est possible de doser sur la même colonne les acides sorbique et benzoïque mais il faut changer d'étalon interne.

Dans ce travail nous décrivons une méthode par chromatographie en phase gazeuse sur colonne capillaire qui permet en une seule opération de déterminer les acides benzoïque et sorbique dans les vins.

Published: December 2016

Large-scale hydrological modeling in China is challenging given the sparse meteorological stations and large uncertainties associated with atmospheric forcing data. Here we introduce the development and use of the China Meteorological Assimilation Driving Datasets for the SWAT model (CMADS) in the Heihe River Basin(HRB) for improving hydrologic modeling, by leveraging the datasets from the China Meteorological Administration Land Data Assimilation System (CLDAS)(including climate data from nearly 40000 area encryption stations, 2700 national automatic weather stations, FengYun (FY) 2 satellite and radar stations). CMADS uses the Space Time Multiscale Analysis System (STMAS) to fuse data based on ECWMF ambient field and ensure data accuracy. In addition, compared with CLDAS, CMADS includes relative humidity and climate data of varied resolutions to drive hydrological models such as the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model. Here, we compared climate data from CMADS, Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) and traditional weather station (TWS) climate forcing data and evaluated their applicability for driving large scale hydrologic modeling with SWAT. In general, CMADS has higher accuracy than CFRS when evaluated against observations at TWS; CMADS also provides spatially continuous climate field to drive distributed hydrologic models, which is an important advantage over TWS climate data, particular in regions with sparse weather stations. Therefore, SWAT model simulations driven with CMADS and TWS achieved similar performances in terms of monthly and daily stream flow simulations, and both of them outperformed CFRS. For example, for the three hydrological stations (Ying Luoxia, Qilian Mountain, and ZhaMasheke) in the HRB at the monthly and daily Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency ranges of 0.75-0.95 and 0.58-0.78, respectively, which are much higher than corresponding efficiency statistics achieved with CFSR (monthly: 0.32-0.49 and daily: 0.26 – 0.45). The CMADS dataset is available free of charge and is expected to a valuable addition to the existing climate reanalysis datasets for deriving distributed hydrologic modeling in China and other countries in East Asia.
Synthesis, Characterization and Catalytic Performance of Well-ordered Crystalline Heteroatom Mesoporous MCM-41
Authors: Qin Jing , Li Baoshan
Published: December 2016

The mesoporous heteroatom molecular sieve MCM-41 bulk crystals with the crystalline phase were synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method using an ionic complex as template. The ionic complex template was formed by interaction between cetyltrimethylammonium ions and metal complex ion [M (EDTA)]2- (M=Co or Ni ). The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, N2 adsorption–desorption isotherms, and X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy. The results showed that the materials possess a highly ordered mesoporous structure with the crystalline phase and possess high uniform ordered arrangement channels. The structure is in the vertical cross directions with a crystalline size of about 12 µm and high specific surface areas. The metal atoms were incorporated into the zeolite frameworks in the form of octahedral coordinate and have a uniform distribution in the materials. The amount of metal complexes formed by metal ion and EDTA is an essential factor for the formation of the vertical cross structure. Comparing to Si-MCM-41, the samples exhibited better conversion, higher selectivity for cumene cracking.

Authors: Lei Qi ,   School of Information Science and Engineering, Central South University, Liu Jun , Wu Min , Wang Jie ,   School of Engineering, University of South Wales,   School of Automation, China University of Geosciences
Published: December 2016

Image clustering is an effective way to discover and analyze large quantities of image data. The HSV color space is particularly advantageous in image feature extraction because of its relatively prominent feature vector. The objective of this study is to develop an image clustering method using the active-constraint semi-supervised affinity propagation (ACSSAP) algorithm. The algorithm adds supervision to the affinity propagation (AP) clustering algorithm with pairwise constraints and uses active learning to guide the AP clustering algorithm. Active learning of pairwise constraints leads to an adjustment of the similarity matrix in AP at each iteration. In the experiments, the advantage of HSV space is analyzed and the ACSSAP algorithm is evaluated for data sets of different sizes in comparison with other algorithms. The result demonstrates that the ACSSAP has better performance.
Design of New Pumping Cavity with Compound Parabolic Concentrator for Solar-Pumped Laser
Authors: Ohkubo Tomomasa ,   Department of Mechanical Engineering, Tokyo University of Technology
Published: December 2016

The pumping cavity we propose for solar-pumped lasers consists of a compound parabolic concentrator (CPC) and a conventional cone-shaped cavity. We applied ray tracing and FEM simulation in designing the cavity. Simulation results suggest that the cavity increases absorption efficiency 1.2 times over the conventional cone-shaped cavity and decreases the standard deviation of absorption density distribution by 33% and thermal stress by 19% over the conventional. Our evaluation of the cavity in lasing experiments realized 80 W in stable laser output.
Effect of Medicaid Expansion on Workforce Participation for People With Disabilities
Authors: Hall Jean P. , Shartzer Adele , Kurth Noelle K. , Thomas Kathleen C.
Published: December 2016

Objectives. To use data from the Health Reform Monitoring Survey (HRMS) to examine differences in employment among community-living, working-age adults (aged 18–64 years) with disabilities who live in Medicaid expansion states and nonexpansion states.

Methods. Analyses used difference-in-differences to compare trends in pooled, cross-sectional estimates of employment by state expansion status for 2740 HRMS respondents reporting a disability, adjusting for individual and state characteristics.

Results. After the Affordable Care Act (ACA), respondents in expansion states were significantly more likely to be employed compared with those in nonexpansion states (38.0% vs 31.9%; P = .011).

Conclusions. Prior to the ACA, many people with disabilities were required to live in poverty to maintain their Medicaid eligibility. With Medicaid expansion, they can now enter the workforce, increase earnings, and maintain coverage.

Objectives. To report characteristics of sexual minority US inmates.

Methods. We drew our data from the National Inmate Survey, 2011–2012, a probability sample of inmates in US prisons and jails. We determined weighted proportions and odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals to estimate differences between sexual minority and heterosexual inmates.

Results. Sexual minorities (those who self-identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual or report a same-sex sexual experience before arrival at the facility) were disproportionately incarcerated: 9.3% of men in prison, 6.2% of men in jail, 42.1% of women in prison, and 35.7% of women in jail were sexual minorities. The incarceration rate of self-identified lesbian, gay, or bisexual persons was 1882 per 100 000, more than 3 times that of the US adult population. Compared with straight inmates, sexual minorities were more likely to have been sexually victimized as children, to have been sexually victimized while incarcerated, to have experienced solitary confinement and other sanctions, and to report current psychological distress.

Conclusions. There is disproportionate incarceration, mistreatment, harsh punishment, and sexual victimization of sexual minority inmates, which calls for special public policy and health interventions.

The catalytic process for methanol production by synthesis gas conversion under the conditions of mechanochemical activation (MCA) of copper-zinc-aluminum oxide catalyst in the temperature range 160–280 °C at a pressure of 0.1 MPa are investigated. The use of mechanical action force is one of the promising ways to improve the activity of heterogeneous catalysts designed to simplify the manufacturing process lines, improving the efficiency of catalytic processes and reduce the cost of the target product. Given the importance of technology for methanol production on copper-zinc-aluminum oxide catalysts and high demand for methanol in the world [1–3], clarification of the peculiarities of the process of methanol production by synthesis gas conversion in terms of mechanical load on the catalyst is important in scientific and applied ways.

It is established that specific catalytic activity, performance of methanol synthesis catalyst and the conversion of initial reagents are increased in the conditions of mechanochemical activation, because of the increasing concentration of defects and formation of additional active centers. It is revealed that mechanochemical treatment of copper-zinc-aluminum oxide catalyst can reduce reaction initiation temperature and optimum temperature synthesis by 20–30 °C, and increase the maximum performance of the catalytic system.

Increase of the catalyst activity under mechanical stress is explored by increase of defect concentration of crystal lattice of the catalyst, as confirmed by the tests of catalyst surface structure by scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and X-ray analysis.

A new effective method for synthesis gas conversion into the methanol under conditions of mechanochemical activation of the catalyst can be used in industry as an alternative to methanol production at high pressures.

Authors: Nadtoshy Anatoly
Published: December 2016

An analysis is conducted of the basic risks that occur when managing the projects of deep-sea archeological research. It is proposed to consider possible risks of such projects in the form of a general set of risks that contains subsets of the identified and unidentified risks. Based on the generalization of existing experience of conducting underwater archaeological research and with regard to the peculiarities of their execution by using TV-controlled unmanned underwater vehicles, the main risks of such operations are identified. A classification of risk factors is proposed, which takes into account weather and hydrological conditions in the area of operations, peculiarities of the underwater situation, technological and technical provision of underwater archaeological research, possible obstacles from the navigation in the explored area and errors in geographical coordinates of fulfilled work, as well as the human factor. Additionally, environmental, organizational and financial risks, which the project team is aware of, are defined as directly related to planning the projects of deep-sea archeological research. A generalized risk register is developed of the projects' deep-sea archaeological studies as theoretical foundation for designing the models of risk management and their quantitative evaluation when planning financial and temporal resources for such projects.

The article is devoted to actualization of the library public relations, especially to introduction of the modern creative PR-arrangement as the main instrument of the library PR-portfolio, aimed at the maximal satisfaction of users and raise of the library image. Classification of PR-arrangements, most topical for the library activity that is directed on improvement of the library image among the general public and also influence the popularization of reading in whole is actualized in this article.
Socio-cultural sphere needs significant transformations and development for today, because it is a background of society cultural level formation. Thus, we understand the necessity of popularization of the libraries among public, raise of demand for library services, involvement of population to the arrangements, introduced at the library, because library it is socio-cultural institution that favors the raise of educational level and national consciousness of society. The library activity in the modern world must obligatory be demanded, because demand it is a certain frame of whole information-communicative system, and public relations are the one of its main elements. Just event communication is one of the main instruments of PR-portfolio form cyclicity of the whole library activity that must start from the user and be finished with it, because at the arrangement the direct process of communication that provides the two-vector character of “public relations” takes place.

Authors: Grinko Alla , Voloshenyuk Irina
Published: December 2016

The questions of tax planning as the one of conditions of effective development of native enterprises were studied. Despite the fact that in theory the taxes must not manage the whole activity of enterprise and essentially change the philosophy of business, on practice taxes are the powerful instrument of economic regulation, completely influence the degree of strategic decisions, compel leaders to change the tactics of enterprises actions cardinally. The analysis of the influence of accounting policy on tax commitments allows make a conclusion that the methods of costs accounting, methods of amortization charging, variants of valuation of assets and debts, possibility of creation of the reserve funds influence the reflection of the results of enterprise activity in financial reporting and, correspondingly, the value of taxation base. That is why their correct choice would help to the leaders of enterprise to choose the necessary levers of tax planning for optimization of taxation. The elements of accounting policy that influence or can influence the tax commitments on the example of accounting of the fixed assets are considered. The algorithm of calculation of economic effect in the result of the use of mechanism of accelerated amortization of the active part of fixed assets on the base of given value of money was offered and the influence of the part of surplus value on the choice of tax system was analyzed on the example of formation of enterprise amortization policy. The elaborated algorithm of tax optimization allows mobilize the additional investment resources of economic subject and decrease the tax load. The offered calculation of the value of economic effect relative to the cost of each group by operation life has a great practical importance, because it demonstrates the sum of profit, lost at the end of service term of each group depending on operation life.

Authors: Kolishetska Marta
Published: December 2016

The aim of this work was to find out the specifics of changes in endogenous intoxication, middle mass molecules (MMM) and erythrocyte intoxication index (EII) in the blood of animals for experimental asthma in different periods of its development and to correct them by thiotriazolin.

Material and methods. Researches were carried out on 72 guinea-pigs (males), which were divided into 6 groups for 12 animals in each of them. The last sixth group included animals that were treated by thiotriazolin. The drug thiotriazolin rate of 100 mg / kg intramuscularly since 23rd day of the experiment for 10 days was administered in the animals of sixth group.

Experimental model of bronchial asthma was restored on guinea-pigs by the V.I. Babych method (1979). In all groups of animals there were determined the middle mass molecules concentration in blood in the wave of 254 nm by I.A.Volchehorskiy, D.A.Dyatlova, E.I. Lvovska and others methods and EII by V.K. Kazymyrko V.I. Maltsev methods. Numerical results were adapted with static method using Student’s criteria.

Results of the research. The highest level of endogenous intoxication in the blood was in the fifth group of guinea pigs with asthma (33rd day), indicating the direct dependence of the antigenic effect on their severity. Using of the thiotriazolin within 10 days (from 23rd to 33rd day) caused the decrease of the MMM254 concentration and EII in serum compared with a group of guinea pigs, that were not entered the medicine. It approved its treating effect.

Conclusions. So, the research of middle mass molecules and erythrocyte intoxication index indicators in different periods of experimental asthma showed their gradual increase in serum of guinea pigs with the greatest severity in 33rd day of the experiment. It might indicate the development of endogenous intoxication animals. But the using of thiotriazolin caused the decreasing of these indicators. That gives a reason to state its positive effect on some markers of endogenous intoxication and feasibility of further researches.

Published: December 2016

Chronic renal failure (CRF) is often diagnosed in cats and dogs of old age. CRF is a consequence of metabolic deviations because of diseases (for example, generalized atherosclerosis, hypertensive disease, diabetes and others) and incorrect feeding. CRF is also a result of the delayed diagnosis of diseases of the urinary system and/or inadequate treatment.

Aim of research. To study the biochemical parameters of protein metabolism that are important for determination of CRF stages and sub-stages in old small animals during correction of metabolic deviations.

Materials and methods. There were analyzed biochemical indices (creatinine concentration in the blood serum; the ratio of protein/creatinine (UP/C) in the urine) and measured arterial blood pressure in 5 cats and 5 dogs with chronic renal failure selected from patients of the clinic according to medical history, clinical examination and special analysis.

Results. It was analyzed CRF stages and sub-stages classification according to the International Renal Interest Society (IRIS). According to the date of creatinine concentration in the blood serum, CRF of the second stage was observed in 5 cats (140-250 μmol/L) and 3 dogs (125-180 μmol/L), and of the third stage - in 2 dogs (181-440 μmol/L). The CRF sub-stage as «without proteinuria» (UP/C < 0.2) was identified in 1 cat, «marginal proteinuria» (UP/C 0.2-0.4) – in 1 cat and «proteinuria» (UP/C > 0.4) - in 3 cats, and as «proteinuria» (UP/C > 0.5) - in 5 dogs.

Conclusions. An important step of the successful treatment of CRF is the definition of the stages and sub-stages according to IRIS based mostly on the measurements of biochemical indices in the blood and urine of sick animals ‒ indicators of creatininemia and proteinuria, a change of which was caused mainly by metabolic processes of proteins under influence of exogenous factors (the traditional treatment of CRF plus enalapril and diet nutrition).
