Published: November 2018

Esta pesquisa, entendida como práxis educacional e social em espaços públicos, fundamenta-se teoricamente no conceito de educação como processo reflexivo, crítico, inter-transdisciplinar, criador e interativo, e de saúde como resultado de condições socioeconômicas, políticas e culturais de vida. Integrando ensino, pesquisa e extensão universitária através de ações interdepartamentais e interinstitucionais, participa-se da articulação de redes colaborativas de sujeitos, saberes e práticas educativas, buscando-se contribuir para a promoção da saúde individual e coletiva. Investiga-se a dimensão emancipatória do conhecimento prático-teórico construído e socializado nesse movimento, reconhecendo a complexidade do presente e desafiando a inexorabilidade do futuro. Em uma abordagem metodológica qualitativa, participativa e dialógica, a avaliação realiza-se processualmente, identificando-se e discutindo-se avanços, dificuldades e desafios epistemológicos, éticos e políticos enfrentados.

Calculando exagerado para não passar vergonha no caixa: representações quantitativas e espaciais entre jovens e adultos no morro de São Carlos
Authors: Fantinato Maria Cecília
Published: November 2018

Este trabalho procura compreender relações entre conheciemntos matemáticos construídos por jovens e adultos trabalhadores na vida cotidiana e conhecimentos matemáticos escolares. Foi desenvolvida pesquisa etnográfica em uma comunidade de baixa renda do Rio de Janeiro, acompanhando a rotina local de um curso de educação de jovens e adultos, assim como aspectos da vida diária dos alunos e da vida comunitária. Os resultados indicaram estreita associação entre o uso de habilidades matemáticas no cotidiano e a necessidade de garantir formas de sobrevivência, via administração de um orçamento reduzido. A pesquisa destacou a predominância de aspectos socioeconômicos nos processos de construção/representação/utilização de conhecimentos matemáticos num contexto urbano, evidenciando esse aspecto como significativo fator de identidade, superando os fatores exclusivamente culturais. Palavras-chave: etomatemática; educação de jovens e adultos; representações quantitativas e espaciais.
Imaginário e instituição, dois elementos para pensar a educação do futuro
Authors: Losada Manuel
Published: November 2018

Este texto pretende articular os conceitos de imaginário e instituição, para se pensar a educação do futuro. Baseado em Castoriadis, a firmo que é preciso colocar a imaginação e o imaginário na origem da constituição do mundo humano, tanto do sujeito como do social-histórico. Ao mesmo tempo, a imaginação e o imaginário só existem enquanto instituídos, enquanto se “encarnam” ou se “materializam” nas instituições. Palavras-chave: imaginário; instituições; educação.
Modismos teóricos e habitus de pensamento: equívocos do discurso da educação
Authors: Lima Magali
Published: November 2018

O “recente” diálogo (de 1970 para cá) do campo da educação com as ciências sociais e/ou humanas fez-nos perceber que nossos esquemas globalizantes e tecnicistas não davam conta das explicações que o cotidiano da prática docente nos exigia. Buscamos, através destas ciências, um novo olhar para nossos projetos educacionais. Entretanto, observamos que, se de um lado “mal entramos” neste diálogo, de outro já achamos que construímos uma “ciência da educação”. A reflexão predominante no campo da educação acredita que já possuímos esse “arcabouço teórico” e que os conteúdos disciplinares e/ou campos de conhecimento não precisam ser vistos com especificidades. Este fato, em nosso entender, tem gerado, dentre outras coisas, apropriações conceituais equivocadas das ciências sociais, no sentido de não percebê-las contextualizadas no campo onde foram produzidas, gerando “modismos” teóricos, uso da teoria como técnica e certos “habitus” de pensamento. Palavras-chave: “problemáticas obrigatórias”; modismos/”habitus”; discurso da educação.

Background

The objective of this prospective study was to evaluate whether soluble programmed cell death-1/programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) and serum amyloid A1 (SAA1) are potential diagnostic, predictive or prognostic biomarkers in lung cancer.

Methods

Lung cancer patients (n=115) with advanced metastatic disease, 101 with non-small cell lung cancer, NSCLC (77 EGFR wild-type NSCLC patients on chemotherapy, 15 EGFR mutation positive adenocarcinoma patients, 9 patients with mPD-L1 Expression ≥50% NSCLC – responders to immunotherapy), and 14 patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) were examined. ELISA method was used to determine sPD-L1 and SAA1 concentrations in patients’ plasma.

Results

Significantly higher blood concentrations of sPD-L1 and SAA1 were noted in lung cancer patients compared with a healthy control group. In PD-L1+ NSCLC patients, a significantly higher sPD-L1 level was noticed compared to any other lung cancer subgroup, as well as the highest average SAA1 value compared to other subgroups.

Conclusions

It seems that sPD-1/PD-L1 might be a potential biomarker, prognostic and/ or predictive, particularly in patients treated with immunotherapy. Serum amyloid A1 has potential to act as a good predictor of patients’ survival, as well as a biomarker of a more advanced disease, with possibly good capability to predict the course of disease measured at different time points.

Authors: Anand R. , Gayathridevi B. , Keshavan B. K.
Published: November 2018

Permanent magnet motor drive is a widely used technology, offering many advantages, such as exceptional speed, torque control and greater flexibility. Improvement of reliability and efficiency has become a great research interest. Towards this direction and taking into account the major developments in permanent machine technology over the recent years, the use of energy recovery converters has been introduced in various industrial applications. In this paper, the effects of harmonics on a three-phase motor controlled by a drive are analysed, and the behaviours of the filter topology after adopting regenerative drives are studied. The main contribution of this study is a methodology to foresee the standards that can be achieved with the use of an active front end system topology with filters. Moreover, the use of an optimum filter that eases the power system distortion is presented. The analysis presented in this paper is validated experimentally.
Performance as a Research Instrument: An Example from the Western European Baroque
Authors: C. Van Ness Edward
Published: November 2018

In this paper, I discuss performance as a research instrument in Western European classical music.  I describe considerations and process leading to my performance of Corelli Op. 5 no. 12 "Follia" in the Indonesian Chamber Music Festival 2011 at ISI Yogyakarta Concert Hall.  Corelli's Follia (La Folia), as it is commonly known, is a canonized work which opens many professional violinist's recital programs. Its real identity has become marginalized and transformed through rather blind reliance on 19th-century editions by violinists who wished to adopt it to "mainline" romantic concepts of style and performance. This process of adaption has been characteristic of European classical music for centuries. Works of earlier times were reshaped both in performance and in print editions to fit prevailing musical tastes.  I chose to approximate an appropriate ensemble with modern instruments. Using a constructivist approach, I employed aspects of Baroque performance practice, especially in ornamentation and embellishment, along with manipulation of rhythmic elements and in a more spontaneous, and consciously contemporary manner.  I take the opportunity to contribute to productive dialogue regarding the role of performance at Music Department, the Faculty of Performing Arts, Yogyakarta Indonesian Institute of the Arts, and qualitative research. I seek to open up our discourse to a wider understanding beyond the persistent positivist continues to approach the academic world in Indonesia as the only platform for research theory and method.  I suggest that this performance, like any other, is an informed adventure across time and space and that ethnomusicology and music are no longer separate worlds.

Authors: Ishida Makoto
Published: November 2018

Rail is the one of the most important materials to support and guide railway vehicles safely and smoothly. Since rail suffers from variousinteracting forces and environmental atmosphere, wear and fatigue pose large problems with wheel and rail. Hence, wear and fatigue ofwheel and rail have been studied so far to keep running safety and some level of riding comfort of vehicle taking into account trackmaintenance cost in the world. In this review, the history of theory and practice of rail maintenance in Japanese railways is describedfocusing on rolling contact fatigue (RCF) corrugation of rails caused by dynamic rolling friction at wheel/rail interface. In particular, “squat”mainly callled in UK or “rail surface shelling” called in Japan which is one of typical fatigue phenomenon for steel wheel-on-rail system andrail corrugations caused by dynamic lateral friction and vertical loading at sharp curves and/or long wavelength of rail corrugation causedby longitudinal roll-slip or stick-slip excited by the resonance of unsprung mass of bogie vertical vibration supported by track stiffness. Inaddition, the practice of countermeasure for RCF defect of squat, preventive grinding, and countermeasure for top of low rail corrugation,top of low rail lubrication “Friction Moderating System” are described. Also, the possibility of preventing long wavelength of rail corrugationformed in tangential track in undersea tunnel (salty water) enviornment is described.
Effect of Moment of Inertia of Attached Mass on Natural Frequencies of Cantilevered Symmetrically Laminated Plates
Authors: Hosokawa Kenji
Published: November 2018

Since composite materials such as laminated composite plates have high specific strength and high structural efficiency, they have been usedin many structural applications. It is therefore very important to make clear the vibration characteristics of the laminated plates for the designand the structural analysis. Especially, the vibration characteristics of the laminated plates with attached mass are essential. However, wecannot find the theoretical or experimental approaches for the free vibration of laminated plates with attached mass. In the present study, theexperimental and numerical approaches are applied to the free vibration of cantilevered symmetrically laminated plates with attached mass.First, by applying the experimental modal analysis technique to the cantilevered symmetrically laminated plates with attached mass, thenatural frequencies and mode shapes of the plates are obtained. Next, the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the cantileveredsymmetrically laminated plates with attached mass are calculated by Finite Element Method (FEM). Finally, from the experimental andnumerical results, the effect of the moment of inertia of the attached mass to the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the cantileveredsymmetrically laminated plates are clarified.

Ladies First: The Influence of Mobile Dating Applications on the Psychological Empowerment of Female Users
Authors: Tanner Maureen , Q Tabo Pabie
Published: November 2018

Aim/Purpose: This study was undertaken to shed light on how the use of a heteronormative mobile dating application creates an environment to promote psychological empowerment among female users within the online dating scene. The study focused on a mobile dating application which specifically challenges traditional gender roles, namely Bumble.

Background: Mobile dating applications have become an increasingly popular medium for people to meet potential partners. However, users’ pre-existing social norms and biases inform how they communicate on these platforms, and stereotyped judgment about women perpetuates ideologies which continue to oppress them within the cyber world. Despite this, very little research has investigated the experiences of female users of mobile dating applications.

Methodology: The study was qualitative in nature, and 10 semi-structured interviews of female Bumble users were conducted. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis.

Contribution: The study contributes to knowledge by highlighting how key features of mobile dating applications influence various aspects of psychological empowerment as articulated in the findings.

Findings: The findings show that the Bumble application supports Intrapersonal variables of Psychological Empowerment of female users relative to Domain Specific Perceived Control and Self-Efficacy, Motivation to Control and Perceived Competence. However, Domain Specific Perceived Control can also be negatively impacted due to self-doubt when female users receive little to no matches. Interactional variables of psychological empowerment are also supported, as Bumble allows female users to be critically aware of the need to screen potential partners, understand relevant causal agents, develop skills relative to initiating conversations and mobilize resources. However, Bumble is not effective in supporting behavioral variables of psychological empowerment because of limitations in the tool’s functionality and the behavior of the people interacting on the platform.

Recommendations for Practitioners: The findings are important as they suggest the need to enhance the features available to female users in order to better suit their needs and desire to take control of their lives in the context of dating and/or friendship.

Recommendation for Researchers: The findings reveal the need for a change of perceptions and attitudes on the part of some users to create a safer and more considerate virtual dating space, to truly achieve psychological empowerment.

Future Research: More research is required on how male and female users domesticate mobile dating applications and how the use of these applications influence their daily lives from a socio-cultural point of view.

Methane bursts as a trigger for intermittent lake-forming climates on post-Noachian Mars

Lakes existed on Mars later than 3.6 billion years ago, according to sedimentary evidence for deltaic deposition. The observed fluvio-lacustrine deposits suggest that individual lake-forming climates persisted for at least several thousand years (assuming dilute flow). But the lake watersheds’ little weathered soils indicate a largely dry climate history, with intermittent runoff events. Here we show that these observational constraints, while inconsistent with many previously-proposed triggers for lake-forming climates, are consistent with a methane burst scenario. In this scenario, chaotic transitions in mean obliquity drive latitudinal shifts in temperature and ice loading that destabilize methane clathrate. Using numerical simulations, we find that outgassed methane can build up to atmospheric levels sufficient for lake forming climates, for past clathrate hydrate stability zone occupancy fractions >0.04. Such occupancy fractions are consistent with methane production by water-rock reactions due to hydrothermal circulation on early Mars. We further estimate that photochemical destruction of atmospheric methane curtails the duration of individual lake-forming climates to less than a million years, consistent with observations. We conclude that methane bursts represent a potential pathway for intermittent excursions to a warm, wet climate state on early Mars.

This research was conducted due to the students’ high aggressiveness either physically or verbally and either directly or indirectly such as hitting, kicking, speaking harshly, berating, destroying stuffs, and even hurting and harming others. This was an experimental research which used pretest-posttest control group design to see the effectiveness of information service using role playing approach to reduce the students’ aggressiveness. The population was students in class VII SMP Negeri 15 Padang. By using random sampling technique, class VII.3 and VII.5 were chosen as the sample.the data of students’ aggressiveness were gathered bt using Likert Scale model, The data obtained analyzed by using the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test intended to see the difference between the score mean of the students’ aggressiveness before and after treatment given to both experimental and control group, and Kolmogorov-Smirnov 2 Independent Samples to see intended to see difference between af the score mean of the students’ aggressiveness in the experimentalgroup and in the control group, by using computer program. The findings of this research were: (1) there was a significance difference between the aggressiveness score mean of the student in experimental group before and after information service using role playing approach given, (2) there was difference between the aggressiveness score mean of the student in control group before and after information service without using role playing approach given but it’s not significance, and (3) there was a significance difference between the aggressiveness score mean of the students treated by making use of information service using role playing approach and those given information service without using role playing approach. It was concluded that giving information service using role playing approach to the students is effective to reduce their aggressiveness

Published: November 2018

Introduction: Caregivers of patients with schizophrenia suffer from significant physical and emotional turmoil. Very less has been done to see if there is some change in their problems once the patient is treated.Material and Method: 36 caregivers of patients with schizophrenia admitted in the psychiatry ward, BPKIHS were enrolled and assessed using BAS at admission and at discharge.Results: The number of caregivers suffering from severe burden had gone down from 17(47.2%) to 1(2.8%) at discharge. There was a significant reduction in the mean scores of all domains of burden.Conclusion: The caregivers suffered from significantly less burden at discharge. However, they need continuous support throughout the treatment period as burden was reduced but not absent.J Psychiatrists’ Association of Nepal Vol .6(1), 2017, p.29-32

Diagnostics, treatment, rehabilitation and prevention of vertebral syndromes caused by traumatic elements
Authors: Kolisnyk P F , Kolisnyk S P
Published: November 2018

Vertebral pain occurs due to many reasons, thus complicates diagnostics, treatment, rehabilitation. The spectrum of pathomorphological changes in vertebral segments that can lead to lesions of the segmental nervous and vascular structures should be considered. We propose to define and classify these pathoanatomical changes. Traumatic elements are pathomorphological changes in vertebral segments, due to an injury or vertebral diseases and may cause irritation, partial or total compression of segmental nervous and/or vascular structures due to their size and direction.

We also suggested algorithm for the diagnostics, treatment, rehabilitation and prevention of pain and other disorders in the spine. Diagnostic algorithm mentioned in the article allows to choose the right methods of treatment, rehabilitation and prevention. We can conclude that pathoanatomical changes directed towards the segmental nervous and vascular structures may act as traumatic elements. Severity of clinical manifestation of spine pathology more depends on the severity of traumatization of segmental nervous or vascular structures. It’s impossible to differentiate traumatic elements as irritating or compressing ones by changes on X-ray and MRI.
L’écriture détournée par la sérigraphie dans les poèmes-estampes de Roland Giguère
Authors: Pelard Emmanuelle
Published: November 2018

The surrealist Quebec poet, painter and artists’ books editor Roland Giguère has based his entire work on a dialogue between poetry and visual arts (painting, serigraphy, typography) in order to experiment the iconicity of writing. He has composed a graphic poetry made of plastic and iconic signs as well as graphic signs, playing with the semiotic ambiguity to create poetic effects and sense. His polysemiotic experiment of the poem based on a specific use of serigraphy has impacted the readability, but has paradoxically shown a new kind of poeticity and the expressiveness of writing. The aim of this article is to establish how the writing subversion and the semiotic experiment allowed by an original use of serigraphy creates poetry.

Henequén, chicle y turismo. El financiamiento estatal para la transformación de la economía yucateca, 1915-1970
Authors: Anaya Merchant Luis
Published: November 2018

Este ensayo explora la experiencia económica yucateca durante medio siglo. La prosperidad henequenera intentó ser repetida bajo nuevos esquemas organizativos por las clases dirigentes que emergieron de la Revolución. Su intento más ambicioso y menos fructífero vino con la denominada cruzada del Mayab. Al revisar este pasaje se hace especial énfasis en sus mecanismos de financiamiento; un segundo aspecto estudiado son las organizaciones de cordeleros. Las dificultades del henequén plantearon pronto la necesidad de encontrar alternativas económicas. En esta perspectiva, el ensayo revisa algunos factores que frenaron los primeros intentos de convertir a la península en un polo de atracción turística. En tal circunstancia, cobrarían realidad otros cultivos, incluyendo el chicle, que no podrían explicarse sin la intervención de mecanismos estatales de financiamiento como el Banco Agrario de Yucatán (BAY).
