Challenges of the Electric Vehicle Markets in Emerging Economies
Authors: Meszaros Ferenc , Shatanawi Mohamad , Ogunkunbi Gabriel Ayobami
Published: February 2020

Electric mobility is an emerging market around the world. Electric vehicles have remarkable environmental gains compared to conventional vehicles, they contribute to decreasing fossil energy dependence, but they need huge investments in charging infra-structure and their market price is much above regular ones. The conditions for market penetration are generally critical in emerging economies, where the purchasing power is far below that of developed economies. In addition, further technical and regulatory barriers hinder the market uptake and augmentation. This paper aims to discover and analyze the current market conditions of electric vehicles in selected emerging economies and to set up augmentation pathways, based on experiences in developed and in developing countries.

Authors: Berková Kateřina , Krejčová Kristýna , Novák Jaromír
Published: February 2020

Students’ motivation is one of the key factors that determine their school success. It is closely linked to their attitudes toward individual school subjects. This research analyzes four crucial dimensions of students’ subject-related attitudes (practical importance, difficulty, popularity and curriculum contents attractiveness) in the secondary economic education in the Czech Republic and Slovakia in the international context. The research focused on the four dimensions of students’ attitudes (n = 573) toward four major school subjects (economics, accounting, mathematics and the mother tongue) at business academies. It analyzes the data from the questionnaires using the Spearman Correlation Coefficient, the non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis test and the modification of Tukey’s method for multiple comparisons. The results show that the popularity of a school subject significantly correlates with its curriculum contents attractiveness and practical importance. However, the difficulty of school subjects did not influence their popularity in a negative way, which opens several questions for further research in the area. Keywords: economic education; students’ attitudes; motivation in economic school subjects; school subject popularity; school subject difficulty.
EFFECT OF LEARNING CLIMATE, THINKING PATTERN, AND CURIOSITY ON ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE IN HIGHER EDUCATION
Authors: Maksum Ali , Khory Fifukha D.
Published: February 2020

This research aimed to examine the theoretical model that explains the relations among learning climate, thinking patterns, and curiosity on academic performance. This research was a non-experimental research with 1,000 respondents from State University of Surabaya, Indonesia. They came from 20 departments, consisting of 324 men and 676 women with a mean age of 19.81 years. Data were collected using a questionnaire, including inventory of learning climate, thinking patterns, and curiosity. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling. The results showed that the model was compatible with the data. The examination also showed the effect of the learning climate on thinking patterns, the influence of thinking patterns on curiosity, the influence of the learning climate on curiosity, and the influence of curiosity on academic performance. It is concluded that learning climate, thinking pattern, and curiosity play an important role in academic performance. Thus, the quality of students can be improved if curiosity is cultivated and reflective thinking patterns are formed. This requires serious efforts, both in policy and practice, to build a learning climate for the growth of students' thinking and curiosity.
Keywords: academic performance, epistemic curiosity, learning climate, structural equation modelling, thinking pattern.
COMPETENCY-BASED ASSESSMENT AND THE USE OF PERFORMANCE-BASED EVALUATION RUBRICS IN HIGHER EDUCATION: CHALLENGES TOWARDS THE NEXT DECADE
Authors: Gallardo Katherina
Published: February 2020

Rubrics are assessment guides for grading and giving feedback to students while demonstrating acquired knowledge and skills. In the last decades, rubrics have been all part of the most used learning evaluation tools in higher education. Its use is further well-related to competency-based assessment purposes. Nevertheless, criticism around design and application has been also implemented in certain reports. In order to understand rubrics’ evolution, practice, benefits, and trends, a systematic literature review on rubrics’ design and use has been conducted. Two databases were selected: Scopus and ProQuest Education. Two phases were determined: The first allowed to identify articles related to rubrics’ design and application for almost three decades. 584 articles were found. From these, most cited articles served to give a scope of rubric evolution and trends. The second phase permitted to identify design and use of performance-based evaluation rubrics from 2009 and 2019. Five terms and Boolean combinations were used. A total of 259 articles was found. After analyzing abstracts and content, 11 open access articles on performance-oriented rubric design and application were chosen. As a result, some facts and reflections on rubric design complexity are discussed towards responding to educational challenges related to competency-based assessment contemporary demands: integration of human learning domains going beyond cognition, authenticity, and interdisciplinarity as features that characterize learning design situations, follow students’ progression, educator’s preparation on assessment literacy for responding to CBA demands, and the involvement of experts of the work field in determining essential evaluation indicators as the main topics looking forward to the next decade. Keywords: competency-based assessment, competency-based education, higher education, learning taxonomy, rubric design.

Stable isotope analyses reveal seasonal and inter-individual variation in the foraging ecology of sperm whales
Authors: Guerra M , Wing L , Dawson S , Rayment W
Published: February 2020

Studying inter-individual variation in foraging by top predators is key for understanding the ecology of their populations, while knowledge of seasonal variability in foraging helps explain temporal changes in habitat use and ecological role. We investigated the inter-individual and seasonal differences in stable isotope ratios of sperm whales Physeter macrocephalus in the temperate foraging ground of the Kaikóura Canyon, New Zealand. Isotope ratios of carbon and nitrogen were measured in 107 samples of sloughed skin from 37 individual males with a wide range of residency patterns and body lengths, sampled over 4 summers and 3 winters. Variability in individual isotope ratios was analysed with generalised additive mixed models. The whales’ residency patterns, but not body size, accounted for most heterogeneity of δ13C and δ15N. Specifically, whales that visited Kaikóura occasionally had more diverse and lower isotope ratios than more frequent visitors (by ca. -1‰ δ13C and -2‰ δ15N), likely reflecting a range of foraging habitats further offshore and/or south of Kaikóura Canyon. We suggest that these patterns reflect differences in large-scale foraging patterns within the population. In addition, whales sampled in winter had significantly lower values of δ13C than whales sampled in summer (by ca. -0.5‰), indicating seasonal differences in the use of food resources. Our results provide new insights into foraging patterns of sperm whales, and highlight the value of accounting for individual differences in the ecology of top predators.
Characterization of Calcium Signals Provoked by Lysophosphatidylinositol in Human Microvascular Endothelial Cells
Authors: AL SULEIMANI Y. M. , HILEY C. R.
Published: February 2020

The lipid molecule, lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI), is hypothesised to form part of a novel lipid signalling system that involves the G protein-coupled receptor GPR55 and distinct intracellular signalling cascades in endothelial cells. This work aimed to study the possible mechanisms involved in LPI-evoked cytosolic Ca2+ mobilization in human brain microvascular endothelial cells. Changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations were measured using cell population Ca2+ assay. LPI evoked biphasic elevation of intracellular calcium concentration, a rapid phase and a sustained phase. The rapid phase was attenuated by the inhibitor of PLC (U 73122), inhibitor of IP3 receptors, 2-APB and the depletor of endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ store, thapsigargin. The sustained phase, on the other hand, was enhanced by U 73122 and abolished by the RhoA kinase inhibitor, Y-27632. In conclusion, the Ca2+ signal evoked by LPI is characterised by a rapid phase of Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum, and requires activation of the PLC-IP3 signalling pathway. The sustained phase mainly depends on RhoA kinase activation. LPI acts as novel lipid signalling molecule in endothelial cells, and elevation of cytosolic Ca2+ triggered by it may present an important intracellular message required in gene expression and controlling of vascular tone.
Periodicity During Hypercapnic and Hypoxic Stimulus Is Crucial in Distinct Aspects of Phrenic Nerve Plasticity

Published: February 2020

This study was undertaken to determine pattern sensitivity of phrenic nerve plasticity in respect to different respiratory challenges. We compared long-term effects of intermittent and continuous hypercapnic and hypoxic stimuli, and combined intermittent hypercapnia and hypoxia on phrenic nerve plasticity. Adult, male, urethane-anesthetized, vagotomized, paralyzed, mechanically ventilated Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to: acute intermittent hypercapnia (AIHc or AIHcO2), acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH), combined intermittent hypercapnia and hypoxia (AIHcH), continuous hypercapnia (CHc), or continuous hypoxia (CH). Peak phrenic nerve activity (pPNA) and burst frequency were analyzed during baseline (T0), hypercapnia or hypoxia exposures, at 15, 30, and 60 min (T60) after the end of the stimulus. Exposure to acute intermittent hypercapnia elicited decrease of phrenic nerve frequency from 44.25±4.06 at T0 to 35.29±5.21 at T60, (P=0.038, AIHc) and from 45.5±2.62 to 37.17±3.68 breaths/min (P=0.049, AIHcO2), i.e. frequency phrenic long term depression was induced. Exposure to AIH elicited increase of pPNA at T60 by 141.0±28.2 % compared to baseline (P=0.015), i.e. phrenic long-term facilitation was induced. Exposure to AIHcH, CHc, or CH protocols failed to induce long-term plasticity of the phrenic nerve. Thus, we conclude that intermittency of the hypercapnic or hypoxic stimuli is needed to evoke phrenic nerve plasticity.

The physiological function of butyrylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.8, BChE) is not clearly understood, but a role was suggested in the fat utilization process, resulting in positive correlation between plasma triglyceride (TG) levels and BChE activity. Consequently we tested the hypothesis that regular intake of betaine, a natural compound intervening in the liver TG metabolism could influence the BChE activity. The BChE activity was estimated spectrophotometrically in plasma of rats fed with betaine enriched standard (B) or high-fat diet (HFB). The results confirmed decreased TG plasma levels after betaine treatment independently on the type of diet (0.15±0.03 (B) vs. 0.27±0.08 (control) mmol/l; p=0.003 and 0.13±0.03 (HFB) vs. 0.27±0.08 (control) mmol/l; p=0.005). The BChE activity increased significantly with betaine administration, however the change was more distinct in the HFB group (0.84±0.34 (HFB) vs. 0.22±0.04 (control) O.D./min/mg; p<0.001 and 0.41±0.11 (B) vs. 0.22±0.04 (control) O.D./min/mg; p=0.001). In conclusion, betaine intake led to elevated BChE activity in plasma and this effect was potentiated by the HF diet. Since betaine is in general used as a supplement in the treatment of liver diseases accompanied by TG overload, its impact on the BChE activity in the role of the liver function marker should be taken into account.

Rats were divided into 3 groups: 1) controls, 2) moderately trained rats that during all 12 weeks swam 1 h/day, 5 days/week, and 3) overtrained rats that in 10th week swam twice, 11th week 3 times, and in 12th week 4 times a day for 1 h. After sacrificing, blood from jugular vein was collected, and the heart excised and perfused on a Langendorff apparatus. Samples of the coronary effluent were collected during coronary autoregulation. Levels of superoxide anion radical (O2-), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), nitric oxide (NO) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were measured in plasma and coronary effluent, while reduced glutathione (GSH), activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) were measured in erythrocytes. Venous blood was also used for interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) determination. Moderate training protocol induced the decrease of TBARS in plasma, while both training protocols induced the decrease of O2- and H2O2 in coronary effluent. There was no significant difference in levels of cytokines between groups. The results of study add evidence about beneficial effects of moderate-intensity training on blood and cardiac redox state of rats, and furthermore, shows that exercising frequently, if the intensity stays within moderate range, may not have detrimental effects.
Hypercalcemia. Pathophysiological Aspects
Authors: ŽOFKOVÁ I.
Published: February 2020

The metabolic pathways that contribute to maintain serum calcium concentration in narrow physiological range include the bone remodeling process, intestinal absorption and renal tubule resorption. Dysbalance in these regulations may lead to hyper- or hypocalcemia. Hypercalcemia is a potentionally life-threatening and relatively common clinical problem, which is mostly associated with hyperparathyroidism and/or malignant diseases (90 %). Scarce causes of hypercalcemia involve renal failure, kidney transplantation, endocrinopathies, granulomatous diseases, and the long-term treatment with some pharmaceuticals (vitamin D, retinoic acid, lithium). Genetic causes of hypercalcemia involve familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia associated with an inactivation mutation in the calcium sensing receptor gene and/or a mutation in the CYP24A1 gene. Furthermore, hypercalcemia accompanying primary hyperparathyroidism, which develops as part of multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN1 and MEN2), is also genetically determined. In this review mechanisms of hypercalcemia are discussed. The objective of this article is a review of hypercalcemia obtained from a Medline bibliographic search.

We investigated the usefulness of cerebrovascular reserve (CVR) testing to predict severe hemodynamic changes during proximally protected carotid artery stenting. Of 90 patients referred, 63 eligible underwent complete evaluation of the extent of carotid artery disease and transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) assessment of CVR by means of a breath-holding test and ophthalmic artery flow pattern evaluation. Periprocedural TCD monitoring of the ipsilateral middle cerebral artery flow was performed in 24 patients undergoing proximally protected procedure (requiring induction of flow arrest within internal carotid artery). Abnormal CVR was significantly less common in patients with unilateral compared to bilateral carotid artery disease (26.3 % vs. 76.9 %, p=0.02), while ophthalmic artery flow reversal was rare in patients with unilateral carotid artery disease (2.5 % vs. 42.9 %, p<0.01). During the induction of carotid flow arrest, the average mean flow velocity drop following external carotid artery occlusion was low (3.5 %, p=0.67) compared to the induction of complete flow arrest (32.8 %, p<0.01). Six patients had a total mean flow velocity drop >50 %, including 2 patients with normal pre-procedural CVR. Our results suggest that TCD evaluation of CVR is not a reliable predictor of hemodynamic changes induced during proximally protected carotid artery stenting in patients with unilateral carotid artery disease.

Abstract:  The fluctuative of stock prices in a secondary market provide the possibility for investors/traders to gain profits through the difference in stock prices (capital gain). In order to obtain these benefits, it is necessary to analyze before buying shares, through fundamental and technical analysis. One of several methods in Technical Analysis is Simple Moving Average Method. This method can be used to predict (forecast) stock prices by calculating moving average of the stock price history. Historical stock prices can be obtained in real time using the Web Scrapper technique, so the results is more quickly and accurately. Using the MAPE (Mean Absolute Percent Error) method, the level of accuracy of forecasting can be calculated. As a result, the program was able to run successfully and was able to display the value of forecasting and the level of accuracy for the entire data tested in LQ45. Besides forecasting with a value of N = 5 has the highest level of accuracy that reaches 97,6 % while the lowest one is using the value of N = 30 which is 95,0 %.

Knee anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the most often injured knee anatomical structures. There are few studies about balance after ACL rupture, but all results are controversial [1, 2, 3]. Our primary aim was to determine the static and dynamic balance changes before ACL surgery and after rehabilitation. Goals of the study: 1) to investigate and to compare static balance before ACL surgery and after rehabilitation; 2) to investigate and to compare dynamic balance before ACL surgery and after rehabilitation. Ten untrained males participated in this study after ACL rupture (mean ± SD, age 28.4 ± 8.1 years, height – 179.8 ± 8.5 cm, weight – 76.0 ± 14.0 kg). The study was performed in the Lithuanian Academy of Physical Education in the Sports and Movements Science Centre. All subjects where tested before ACL surgery and after 3 months of rehabilitation. Two weeks after the surgery the following rehabilitation was applied: physiotherapy, massage and physiotherapy in the water (3 times per week, 16 times in total). Following these procedures rehabilitation was continued with muscle strength training exercises in a gym. Balance was measured when participant stood on a KISTLER balance platform with open eyes, looking directly into the selected point 2 m away at the eye level, hands on hips. Balance within 20 s while standing on one leg and balance within 15 s after one leg hop for both healthy and ACL ruptured legs were measured. The results showed that standing on ACL ruptured leg before surgery and after rehabilitation the oscillations were not significantly different, but standing on the healthy leg after rehabilitation significantly improved. Test results after one leg hop on ACL ruptured leg showed that oscillations were significantly greater after rehabilitation. Conclusions: 1. After rehabilitation one leg static balance improved only in non-injured leg. 2. After rehabilitation one leg dynamic balance decreased in injured leg, but increased in non-injured leg.Keywords: anterior cruciate ligament, rehabilitation, static balance, dynamic balance

Sheherazade's Notebook: Editing Textual Dysteleology and Autographic Modernism
Authors: Hulle Dirk Van
Published: February 2020

Critical editions of ‘Complete Works’ are typically organized in a teleological manner, using each of the author's published works as an endpoint. In addition to this useful tradition, this article suggests a ‘dysteleological’ approach. The term ‘dysteleology’, indicating that evolution has no inherent goal, was coined in the years leading up to Modernism. The existence of vestigial organs served as an example to corroborate the ‘dysteleological’ view. A writer's unused notes may be regarded as similarly ‘vestigial’. They are purposeless from a teleological point of view, but they are crucial elements in the study of creative writing processes (‘genetic criticism’). These elements have their rightful place in a scholarly edition, and it is therefore necessary to complement a teleological editorial tradition with a ‘dysteleological’ approach. To corroborate this argument, the article examines works by James Joyce and Samuel Beckett, as well as by less canonical authors such as Raymond Brulez.
Applying the MIDAS Touch: An Accurate and Scalable Approach to Imputing Missing Data
Authors: Lall Ranjit , Robinson Thomas
Published: February 2020

We propose an accurate, fast, and scalable approach to multiply imputing missing political science data, which we call MIDAS (Multiple Imputation with Denoising Autoencoders). MIDAS employs a class of unsupervised neural networks known as denoising autoencoders, which were recently developed to optimize the task of dimensionality reduction by corrupting a subset of input data and attempting to reconstruct it through a series of nonlinear transformations. We repurpose denoising autoencoders for multiple imputation by treating missing values as a special case of corrupted data and drawing imputed values from a model trained to minimize the reconstruction error on an additional portion of originally observed values. Systematic tests involving real as well as simulated data demonstrate that MIDAS produces accurate imputed values and parameter estimates and scales more efficiently to long and wide datasets than leading existing multiple imputation algorithms. We provide open-source software for implementing MIDAS in the Python programming environment.
The Gender Agenda in Kenyan Children’s Feature Films
Authors: Ojiambo-Hongo Evelyn , Mugubi John , Nyaole Rosemary
Published: February 2020

The gender agenda has featured substantially in creative works from Africa and particularly Kenya. Although film is considered a new form of creative expression in Africa, compared to the west, it has not been excluded in exploring gender issues. While the gender discussion has prominently featured adults, the Kenyan film has gone a step further and explored gender on a different level. Gender has been explored from the point of view of the child and employed the child character as a suitable medium. Kenyan filmmakers by employing the child character on the subject of gender seem to suggest that engendering of any member of the society begins in childhood and progresses into adulthood. This is a unique aspect about the Kenyan film yet has not been critically examined. This paper therefore examines the child character and the exploration of gender in Kenyan films about children to ascertain the significance of the child character in exploring gender issues in society. It focuses on three selected films that extensively explore the engendering of children namely: Subira, Malika and Becoming A Girl. The films mainly focus on the engendering of the girl child by the society and that this happens in childhood. They also employ the girl child as acharacter in exploring the issue of gender. Examination of the child character will be guided by the Sociological theory of film and the Formalist film theory. The structure of the paper is as follows: A background on the gender issue in creative works, theoretical perspectives on gender, analysis of Kenyan children’s films on gender and conclusions on the use of the child character in exploring gender.
