Mining Leftovers: Making Futures on the Margins of Capitalism
Authors: Jaramillo Pablo 
Published: February 2020

The Colombian government and large-scale mining companies accuse small-scale gold miners of lacking a sense of the future, thereby harming the future of Colombia. In this article, I argue that marginalized people who extract gold with small-scale techniques create an alternative sense of future by engaging with the leftovers of their gold mining practices. This article is based on ethnographic fieldwork with people who struggle to make a living in the wake of large-scale mining interventions in the town of Marmato. Small-scale mining constantly creates simple by-products—gases, rubble, and mud—that look like waste. Small-scale miners engage with such substances as a way to make sense of their lives and the future. Making the relationships between humans and geological substances, waste and technology visible elucidates alternative forms of life that “get in the way” of a multinational mining company, the national government, local mafias, and financial markets hungry for gold in times of crisis. By analyzing people’s engagement with leftovers, I offer an understanding of resilience and survival in the margins of capitalist cycles of violence.
Resumen

El gobierno de Colombia y las compañías mineras a gran escala ven la minería a pequeña escala como una práctica sin futuro y dañina para el país. En este artículo argumento que las personas marginalizadas que extraen oro a pequeña escala crean sentidos de futuro alternativos al entrar en relación con las sobras de sus propias prácticas mineras. El artículo está basado en trabajo de campo etnográfico en el pueblo de Marmato, con personas que luchan por sobrevivir ante la inminencia de la ejecución de un proyecto de minería a gran escala en la montaña donde se localiza el pueblo. La minería a pequeña escala crea subproductos de manera permanente—colas, sobrantes y restos—que parecen basura. No obstante, los mineros a pequeña escala se involucran con estas sustancias como una forma de hacer sentido sobre sus propias vidas y futuros. Hacer visible la relación entre humanos y sustancias geológicas, desechos y tecnología hace posible apreciar formas alternativas de vida que “se ponen en el camino” de una multinacional minera, el gobierno nacional, mafias locales y los mercados financieros que buscan oro en tiempos de crisis. Al analizar la relación de las personas con gases, escombros, rocas, y barro, aporto una posibilidad de entender la resiliencia y subsistencia en los márgenes del capitalismo y sus ciclos de violencia.

Published: February 2020

This study aimed to investigate the effect of iron toxicity in cowpea using physiological and biochemical responses of selected accessions. Fifteen accessions of cowpea were exposed to two treatments of iron using FeSO4 solution (100 mg l-1 and 400 mg l-1) and distilled water at pH 6.2 as control. The results showed that there was a general reduction in germination morphology; germination percentage among the 400 mg l-1 Fe-treated accessions. Seed mortality rates were significantly higher among the 400 mg l-1Fe-treated accessions (> 35 %). Water imbibition capacity and relative mass gained were higher for Fe-treated accessions. Furthermore, significant increase in the total sugar and percentage utilization of sugars was accompanied by an insignificant decrease in chlorophyll a, a significant decrease in chlorophyll b contents and the persistence of foliar chlorosis, among the 400 mg l-1 Fe-treated accessions. MDA levels were significantly increased while proline remained unchanged, mean SOD activity was insignificantly increased, whereas Cat decreased among the 400 mg l-1 Fe-treated accessions. Documentation of these observable changes in physiological and biochemical parameters will be useful in understanding the impact of elevated iron concentrations on the cultivation of cowpea accessions in soils associated with ferruginous ultisols.

Abstract
Systemic amyloidosis is a serious disease which is caused when normal circulating proteins misfold and aggregate extracellularly as insoluble fibrillary deposits throughout the body. This commonly results in cardiac, renal and neurological damage. The tissue target, progression and outcome of the disease depends on the type of protein forming the fibril deposit, and its correct identification is central to determining therapy. Proteomics is now used routinely in our centre to type amyloid; over the past 7 years we have examined over 2000 clinical samples. Proteomics results are linked directly to our patient database using a simple algorithm to automatically highlight the most likely amyloidogenic protein. Whilst the approach has proved very successful, we have encountered a number of challenges, including poor sample recovery, limited enzymatic digestion, the presence of multiple amyloidogenic proteins and the identification of pathogenic variants. Our proteomics procedures and approaches to resolving difficult issues are outlined.
Age-specific reference values improve the diagnostic performance of AMH in polycystic ovary syndrome
Authors: Evliyaoglu Osman , Imöhl Mathias , Weiskirchen Ralf , van Helden Josef 
Published: February 2020

Abstract

Background
The increased secretion of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) by the growing follicles has been supposed as a determinative feature of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The diagnostic performance of AMH in PCOS is superior compared to the free androgen index (FAI) and luteinizing hormone (LH)/follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) quotient. We established age-dependent reference ranges to further improve the diagnostic performance of AMH.

Methods
In a cross-sectional study, in samples of 4712 reproductive age patients, ranging from 14 to 50 years, BMI, AMH and other reproductive hormones were determined by immunoassay or tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to calculate age-specific reference ranges and the diagnostic performance.

Results
Age-specific diagnostic performances for Elecsys® AMH, FAI and LH/FSH ratio were established in the reference group. No significant difference in BMI was found between the groups. AMH values were significantly negatively correlated with age (r = −0.628, p < 0.001) in patients with normal ovarian function, but there was no correlation between age and AMH levels in PCOS patients (r = − 0.041, p < 0.174). In all the study groups, AMH showed a weak correlation between FAI and LH/FSH ratio (r = 0.302, p < 0.001 and r = 0.434, p < 0.001, respectively). The sensitivity/specificity for AMH, FAI and LH/FSH ratio were 89/96%, 71/69% and 75/72%, respectively, according to the Youden index.

Conclusions
We determined the age-dependent reference ranges for serum AMH levels in a large population-based study and calculated the age-specific diagnostic performance of FAI and LH/FSH ratio, which allows physicians to evaluate patients with PCOS who have normal AMH levels. AMH is suggested as the strongest diagnostic marker in patients with PCOS compared to FAI and LH/FSH ratio.

Published: February 2020

AbstractBackgroundPreterm premature rupture of membranes (pPROM) is associated with a high risk of prematurity and complications of fetal inflammatory response syndrome (FIRS). The aim of the study is to determine any correlations between the concentration of selected cytokines contained in the cervicovaginal secretion eluates and in the umbilical cord plasma in patients with pPROM and to find the noninvasive markers of FIRS in order to pinpoint the optimal time of the delivery.MethodsThe study included 80 patients with pPROM between the 24th and 34th week of gestation. The cervicovaginal fluid and umbilical cord blood were collected. Interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 10 (IL-10), interleukin 19 (IL-19) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) concentrations were measured in both materials. For the statistical analysis, SigmaStat3.5 software was used.ResultsThere was no direct association in levels of IL-6, TNF-α, IL-10 and IL-19 between the cord blood and cervicovaginal secretions within the studied group. The cut-off point of IL-6 of 26.8 pg/mL in the vaginal fluid had high sensitivity and specificity in order to discriminate between newborns with and without FIRS (81.08%; 76.74%).ConclusionFurther studies are needed on a larger group of participants to demonstrate that an elevated concentration of IL-6 above 26.8 pg/mL in the cervicovaginal secretion eluate is an indirect noninvasive marker of FIRS.

Published: February 2020

AbstractDeep learning has become the dominant approach in artificial intelligence to solve complex data-driven problems. Originally applied almost exclusively in computer-science areas such as image analysis and nature language processing, deep learning has rapidly entered a wide variety of scientific fields including physics, chemistry and material science. Very recently, deep neural networks have been introduced in the field of nanophotonics as a powerful way of obtaining the nonlinear mapping between the topology and composition of arbitrary nanophotonic structures and their associated functional properties. In this paper, we have discussed the recent progress in the application of deep learning to the inverse design of nanophotonic devices, mainly focusing on the three existing learning paradigms of supervised-, unsupervised-, and reinforcement learning. Deep learning forward modelling i.e. how artificial intelligence learns how to solve Maxwell’s equations, is also discussed, along with an outlook of this rapidly evolving research area.

Abstract
Liquids for electronic cigarettes and the vapor generated from them were examined by chemical and biological methods in order to reveal potential risk factors and their acceptability for consumers. Although the majority of the liquids on the market appear to be safe, some aroma compositions have been identified as possibly toxic for human vein epithelial cells, similar to tobacco smoke, thus indicating potential health risks and suggesting suitable test procedures before marketing the liquids.

Introduction. The economic aspects of providing cancer care to the public attract increasing attention of scientists, economists, physicians and other healthcare professionals. Currently, the healthcare economics of oncological institutions is defined as part of the national economy that implements cancer care programs and provide a wide range of medical and pharmaceutical services to the public.Aim. The study was conducted as part of the program for improvement of financial spending in order to facilitate cancer care for Moscow residents. The aim of this study was to identify the crucial areas of the cost analysis and thus improve the public health service.Materials and methods. We used the methodology of targeted and consistent search of the literature. The data search and analysis was carried out using the US National Medical Library (PubMed database), National Electronic Library (e-LIBRARY, Russia), and other Internet resources. Whenever possible, articles on the most common and socially significant types of cancer (breast, colon, prostate, lung etc.) were selected. In addition, we focused on significant studies conducted either on the national or international level.Results and discussion. In principle, the structure of total costs is determined by the health policy regarding the cancer care system. Six main areas of oncological care that require careful economic analysis have been identified: those are prevention, oncoscreening, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation, and palliative care. In order to implement the economic goals of the healthcare system, the cost of cancer treatment should be discussed. The relevant programs are expected to be based on 1) prevalence and incidence; 2) impact on health; 3) results of the integrative methodological approach to cancer treatment; 4) implementation of comprehensive measures of medical and social assistance; 5) use of financial mechanisms and their impact on economic indicators.Conclusion. The set of measures related to the direct costs as identified in this study include the development, planning and provision of cancer care. These specific features of the direct cost analysis are important for organizing medical care in oncological institutions.

Formación docente a nivel de postgrado en Latinoamérica
Authors: Herrera Perez Jhan Carlos 
Published: February 2020

El artículo de reflexión se orienta a analizar la formación docente a nivel de postgrado en el contexto latinoamericano, contextualizado principalmente en estudios de Maestría y Doctorado, Se enfatiza la importancia de la investigación como un componente esencial de estos programas académicos y los retos que se deben plantear actores como: gobierno, instituciones y docentes para contribuir al mejoramiento de la calidad educativa. Desde el fundamento metodológico un análisis reflexivo-argumentativo permite la construcción teórica en atención a las principales categorías trabajadas: Formación Docente – Estudios de Postgrado – Calidad Educativa. Entre los principales resultados destaca que los diferentes gobiernos intentan establecer mecanismos que les permitan mejorar el control del presupuesto, pero en sus afán por lograr objetivos referidos por organismos internacionales como la Organización para la Cooperación y el Desarrollo Económico (OCDE), establecen políticas que no son concertadas con todos los actores, incluidos gremios o sindicatos, lo que ha derivado en consecuencias negativas para los educadores. Se concluye que la formación docente a nivel de postgrado, contribuye con el mejoramiento de la calidad educativa por cuanto fortalece: el perfil de competencias, la innovación didáctica – pedagógica y la promoción en el escalafón docente.

Published: February 2020

Stratagem to promote improvement based on the cultivating, nurturing, harvesting, jamboree, processing, collecting period and diversifying of acclimatized species implicitly target households as principal beneficiaries in haor region of Bangladesh. This paper suggests that the cultivation and domestication of acclimatized species can play important roles for enhancing food security in these co-managed areas. Sunamgonj is a haor based district in Bangladesh where local communities are affected by the unwanted deluge throughout the approximately six months round the year. Most of haor inhabitants are hampered on food insecurity including fundamental needs and networks in this period. For these overcomes, succession of vegetative-floristic compositions including fauna and genetic diversification introduced in these areas not only for upliftment of food security but also shelter bank free from devastating. This study focuses on four Upazillas in Sunamgonj that derive a significant portion of their livelihoods from providing of cultivated species including flora and fauna in the mentioned haor region. The author applied social science methods for relevant data and information collection surrounding these haor areas. About 65% respondents of these regions are opined for seasonal species cultivation and domestication through the co-managed partners both government and development organizations including national and international agencies. The author wants to aware for species selection, domestication, tending, training and development among the enthusiastic farmers on the priority requirements on species gene bank to accomplish a broader concept of food security and to ensure that short-term food benefits lead to longer-term food security. It concludes that both research on the cultivation and domestication of acclimatization and co-management practices that are needed to allow haor inhabitants to continue to live ensuring food security round the year in this region within a sustainable manner of haor resources. Finally, the author infers the future research trajectories of the co-managed approaches and recommendations for how to further sustainable develop the probable domesticated resources alternatively for food security in the aforesaid.
Congruence Properties of Andrews’SPT- Function
Authors: Das Sabuj 
Published: February 2020

Let spt (n) denote the total number of appearances of the smallest part in each partition of n. In 1988, Garvan gave new combinatorial interpretations of Ramanujan’s partition congruences mod 5, 7 and 11 in terms of a crank for weighted vector partitions. This paper shows how to generate the generating functions for spt(n), elaborately and also shows how to prove the relation among the terms spt (n) and. In 2008, Andrews stated Ramanujan- type congruences for the spt- function mod 5, 7 and 13. The new combinatorial interpretations of the spt- congruences mod 5 and 7 are given in this article. These are in terms of the spt- crank but for a restricted set of vector partitions. The proofs depend on relating the spt- crank with the crank of vector partitions.
