Un estruendo invisible: las cajas en el teatro de Bances Candamo
Authors: Gilabert Gastón 
Published: January 2020

El objetivo de este trabajo es reflexionar acerca de uno de los ingredientes más invisibles del teatro del Siglo de Oro: la música instrumental y los efectos acústicos que no incluyen la participación de cantantes. Mediante el análisis de todas las apariciones de cajas o tambores militares percutidos en las comedias de Francisco Bances Candamo, con la dificultad que supone la escasez generalizada de acotaciones destinadas a la música instrumental, se dibuja una estrategia dramática para vincular el oído con lo bélico, sea para animar al soldado, sea para las honras fúnebres de los caídos, con las implicaciones ideológicas que ello tiene en el primer gran espectáculo de masas de la modernidad.
The aim of this paper is to reflect on one of the most invisible ingredients of the Spanish Golden Age theatre: instrumental music and acoustic effects that do not include the participation of singers. Through the analysis of all the occurrences of cajas or percussed military drums in the plays of Francisco Bances Candamo, with the difficulty that supposes the generalized scarcity of stage directions destined to the instrumental music, a dramatic strategy is drawn to link the ear with war, either to animate to the soldier, or for the funeral honors of the fallen, with the ideological implications that this has in the first great mass spectacle of modernity.
El peso de una palabra. Aproximación a la escritura diarística en “Filosofía en los días críticos” de Chantal Maillard
Authors: Crespo Marta 
Published: January 2020

Este artículo se propone trazar algunos apuntes que permitan pensar la particular incursión de Chantal Maillard en las escrituras del yo como materialización formal del proyecto poético y filosófico de la autora. Así, a partir de una lectura de Filosofía en los días críticos, la primera obra de Maillard presentada como diario, a la luz de las características tradicionales de este género literario, se buscará articular una reflexión en torno a las consecuencias de la elección del diario respecto de la pregunta por el sujeto y de la voluntad de destruir un pensamiento y un lenguaje sustentados en la metafísica y la ontología.
The aim of this paper is drawing some notes on Chantal Maillard’s particular incursion in the self writing as a formal materialization of her poetical and philosophical project. From a reading of Filosofía en los días críticos, the first work of Maillard presented as a diary, in light of the traditional characteristics of this literary genre, this work will try to articulate a reflection on the consequences of choosing the diary regarding to the question of the subject and the will to destroy a thought and a language based on metaphysics and ontology.
Una visión fenomenológica de la ontología del cinematógrafo
Authors: Hoyos Morales Alfonso 
Published: January 2020

El siguiente trabajo se propone encontrar conexiones entre cierto tipo de cineastas y la propuesta ontológica de la fenomenología. La aparición del cine otorgaría una nueva dimensión al arte, la captación mecánica de la realidad física, así como un lenguaje propio (el montaje, el encuadre, etc). Estos dos elementos constituirían una dialéctica que no sería sino la expresión de un dualismo metafísico ancestral: la preponderancia o bien de lo subjetivo o bien de lo objetivo. A través del estudio de autores realistas como Kracauer o Bazin procuraremos matizar su visión con la perspectiva fenomenológica o de inspiración fenomenológica de autores (tanto filósofos como cineastas o teóricos del cine) como Merleau Ponty, Robert Bresson y Nathaniel Dorsky, entre otros. Estos, asumiendo la característica propia del cine, a saber, su íntimo contacto con la realidad física, consideran que la verdadera expresión de ésta requiere de una mejor comprensión del lenguaje cinematográfico y su aspecto formal. Así, entienden este lenguaje no como herramientas abstractas, sino como una escritura que nace de la propia materia de su medio.
This paper tries to find connections between some kind of filmmakers and the ontology of phenomenology. The birth of cinema brought a new dimension to art: the mechanic capture of physical reality, as well as a new language. These two elements brought a dialectic that is similar to an ancestral metaphysical dualism: the preponderance of, either the objective either the subjective. Through the study of some realistic author as Kracauer or Bazin we will try to qualify their vision with the phenomenological perspective of some authors (philosophers as well as filmmakers and film theorists) as Merleau-Ponty, Robert Bresson and Nathaniel Dorsky and others. They consider, assuming the inner essence of cinema as an intimate contact with physical reality, that the true expresión of this requires a better comprehension of cinematographic language and it’s formal aspect. Thereby, they understand this language not as abstracts tools, but as a writing that is born from the materiality of it’s medium.
Regards de chercheurs-conseillers pédagogiques sur les interactions en contexte de résolution de problèmes mathématiques en classe

Published: January 2020

La résolution de problèmes constitue, au Québec et ailleurs dans le monde, une composante clé de l’enseignement des mathématiques, et les interactions sociales y jouent un rôle important. Pour que s’exercent des interactions riches et favorables à l’apprentissage des élèves, il faut considérer le pilotage du problème par l’enseignant ou l’enseignante. Or les expériences des conseillers et conseillères pédagogiques (CP) en mathématiques – lesquels informent, soutiennent et accompagnent le personnel enseignant – montrent que ce pilotage ne va pas de soi, en particulier en ce qui concerne les relances mises en oeuvre par l’enseignant ou l’enseignante dans le feu de l’action. Une recherche collaborative menée pendant trois ans avec huit CP en mathématiques au primaire a permis d’investiguer davantage ces relances. L’analyse des transcriptions des rencontres réflexives met en évidence une problématisation des pratiques de relances conduites par les enseignants et les enseignantes dans le feu de l’action, et en montre la complexité au regard de différents cas de figure. L’analyse souligne également l’ancrage du travail de relance sur une tâche préalable d’anticipation. Les pistes d’action qui se dégagent de l’analyse font par ailleurs ressortir une certaine culture mathématique de classe en lien avec ces relances et leur anticipation.
Morphoscopic ancestry estimates in Filipino crania using multivariate probit regression models
Authors: Go Matthew C. , Hefner Joseph T. 
Published: January 2020

AbstractObjectivesProbit has not been applied to ancestry estimation in forensic anthropology. The goals of this study were to: (1) evaluate the performance of probit analysis as a classification tool for ancestry estimation using ordinal data and (2) expand our current understanding of human cranial variation for an understudied population.MethodsMultivariate probit models were used to classify the ancestral affiliation of Filipino crania using morphoscopic traits. Ancestral reference populations represented Africa, Asia, and Europe in a three‐group model, with the addition of Hispanics in a four‐group model. Posterior probabilities across these groups were interpreted as admixture proportions of an individual. Model performance was also evaluated for individuals with missing data.ResultsThe overall correct classification rates for the three‐group and four‐group models were 72.1% and 68.6%, respectively. Filipinos classified as Asian 52.9% of the time using three ancestral reference groups and 48.6% using four groups. A large portion of Filipinos also classified as African. There were no significant differences in classification trends or accuracy rates between complete crania and crania with at least one missing variable.ConclusionsMultivariate probit models using morphoscopic traits perform well when populations are represented in both training and test samples. Probit can also accommodate individuals with missing data. Classifying Filipinos showed only moderate success. Filipinos are more phenotypically similar to Africans than the other Asian samples used here, but still affiliate most closely as Asian. Ancestry methods would benefit from including Filipinos as a reference sample given the additional variation they provide to the continental category of Asian.
Chemically modified screen‐printed electrodes as efficient potentiometric sensors for cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride determination in pure and pharmaceutical preparations

Published: January 2020

ABSTRACTChemically modified screen‐printed electrodes (SPEs) with 3,4‐dihydroxy‐9,10‐dioxo‐2‐anthracenesulfonic acid sodium salt [Alizarin Red (ALZ.R)] and tricresylphosphate (TCP) were fabricated and examined for potentiometric determination of cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride (CZP.HCl) in pure and pharmaceutical samples. The content of ALZ.R in the prepared SPEs varied, which significantly affected their potentiometric response during CZP.HCl estimation. The measured potential value was dependent on the pH of the studied solution. A stable modified SPE sensor was prepared with reproducible readings within 22 days. A wide linear concentration range could be measured with Nernestian slope value of 60.12 ± 0.18 mV decade−1. Based on the recorded analytical parameters of these modified SPEs, a sensitive and reliable detection of CZP.HCl in pharmaceutical samples could be attained.
Characterizing surrogacy performance in the systematic conservation planning of riverine networks

Published: January 2020

Abstract

Priority‐area selection is a core phase of systematic conservation planning, often carried out using a single (surrogate) taxon. Efficient surrogates are expected to yield taxonomically representative priority areas that embrace the populations not only of the surrogate but also the surrogated taxa. Compared with the terrestrial realm, surrogacy performance of riverine taxa has received much less attention.
This study compared the surrogacy performance of fishes (FI), macrophytes (MP), and benthic macroinvertebrates (MI) in terms of total area, connectedness, spatial congruence, and taxonomic representativeness of priority areas in the Middle Danube basin (Hungary). Setting three target values for each surrogate group, nine area prioritization designs were run by using a purpose‐written connectivity‐centric algorithm to emphasize the importance of longitudinal connectivity.
FI provided the smallest, MP the intermediate, and MI the largest priority areas or solutions. Connectedness was greatest for FI, being one order of magnitude higher than for the other two groups. Pairwise spatial congruence was highest between FI and MP, lowest between MP and MI, and intermediate for FI and MI. MI yielded the most representative solutions, although the number of occurrences of the surrogated taxa in the solution, as a criterion of representation, modified the ratio of the taxa represented. Areas compiled from the overlapping parts of the surrogate‐specific priority sets proved to be smaller than, and similarly representative of, single‐taxon solutions.
Taxon‐rich groups such as MI can serve as efficient surrogates, but that can result in larger solutions than for less taxon‐rich surrogates. Apart from the size, the compactness of the solutions seems to be determined by the identity of the surrogate taxa, and FI can be alternative surrogates in connectivity‐centric prioritization. At the same time, multi‐group approaches can enhance the robustness of area prioritization in terms of representativeness compared with single‐taxon procedures.
The Developmental Gene Hypothesis for Punctuated Equilibrium: Combined Roles of Developmental Regulatory Genes and Transposable Elements
Authors: Casanova Emily L. , Konkel Miriam K. 
Published: January 2020

AbstractTheories of the genetics underlying punctuated equilibrium (PE) have been vague to date. Here the developmental gene hypothesis is proposed, which states that: 1) developmental regulatory (DevReg) genes are responsible for the orchestration of metazoan morphogenesis and their extreme conservation and mutation intolerance generates the equilibrium or stasis present throughout much of the fossil record and 2) the accumulation of regulatory elements and recombination within these same genes—often derived from transposable elements—drives punctuated bursts of morphological divergence and speciation across metazoa. This two‐part hypothesis helps to explain the features that characterize PE, providing a theoretical genetic basis for the once‐controversial theory.

Fibroblast growth factor‐2 and interleukin‐4 synergistically induce eotaxin‐1 expression in adipose tissue‐derived stromal cells
Authors: Hattori Hidemi , Ishihara Masayuki 
Published: January 2020

AbstractThe relationships between eosinophils and adipose tissues are involved in metabolic homeostasis. Eotaxin is a chemokine with potent effects on eosinophil migration. To clarify the mechanisms of eotaxin expression in adipose tissues, we examined the effects of fibroblast growth factor‐2 (FGF‐2) and interleukin‐4 (IL‐4) stimulation on eotaxin expression in adipose tissue‐derived stromal cells (ASCs), a type of adipocyte progenitor, in vitro. ASCs expressed eotaxin‐1 and did not express eotaxin‐2 or ‐3. Eotaxin‐1 expression was increased in a concentration‐dependent manner following FGF‐2 treatment. Additionally, ASCs expressed FGF receptor‐1 (FGFR‐1) and did not express FGFR‐2, ‐3, or ‐4. Eotaxin‐1 expression was inhibited in cells treated with the FGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor and extracellular signal‐regulated kinase (ERK) inhibitor U0126, even in the presence of FGF‐2. Moreover, eotaxin‐1 expression was synergistically enhanced by combined treatment with FGF‐2 and IL‐4 and inhibited in the presence of U0126. Eotaxin‐1 expression induced by FGF‐2 and IL‐4 was involved in ERK activation via FGFR‐1 in ASCs. Upregulation of eotaxin expression in adipose tissues could increase eosinophil migration, thereby inducing IL‐4 secretion and activation of alternative macrophages and improving glucose homeostasis. These findings provide insights into the mechanisms through which eotaxin mediates metabolic homeostasis in adipose tissues and eosinophils.

AbstractPurposeEndovascular mechanical thrombectomy using the AngioJet™ system can be considered to reestablish patency in occluded vascular access. The aim of this study was to review our results for endovascular mechanical thrombectomy using the AngioJet™ system in patients with arteriovenous fistulae (AVF) and arteriovenous grafts (AVG).MethodsData collected in a database of patients requiring hemodialysis for renal failure were analyzed. Patients who underwent endovascular mechanical thrombectomy procedures with the AngioJet™ system for occlusion of vascular access were included. Clinical and technical success rates and patency rates were calculated. Multivariate analysis was used to identify factors of influence.ResultsA total of 92 AngioJet™ procedures in 60 patients with thrombosed vascular access were reviewed during a mean follow‐up period of 21.5 months in patients with an AVF and 11.9 months in patients with an AVG. Technical and clinical success was achieved in 92.6% of AVF cases and 92.0 and 90.8% of AVG cases with an AVG, respectively. Significantly higher primary and primary‐assisted patency rates were observed in the AVF group. Multivariate regression analysis indicated that left‐sided vascular access and female sex were independent predictors for failure regarding primary patency in AVG patients. Immunosuppressive drugs and older age were negative predictors for secondary patency in AVG patients.ConclusionsThe AngioJet™ system can be deemed an effective technique to reestablish patency in occluded vascular access with minimal use of central venous catheters for dialysis. Good technical and clinical success rates were achieved with acceptable patency rates, especially in AVF patients.

AbstractCrop improvement efforts aiming at increasing crop production (quantity, quality) and adapting to climate change have been subject of active research over the past years. But, the question remains ‘to what extent can breeding gains be achieved under a changing climate, at a pace sufficient to usefully contribute to climate adaptation, mitigation and food security?’. Here, we address this question by critically reviewing how model‐based approaches can be used to assist breeding activities, with particular focus on all CGIAR (formerly the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research but now known simply as CGIAR) breeding programs. Crop modeling can underpin breeding efforts in many different ways, including assessing genotypic adaptability and stability, characterizing and identifying target breeding environments, identifying tradeoffs among traits for such environments, and making predictions of the likely breeding value of the genotypes. Crop modeling science within the CGIAR has contributed to all of these. However, much progress remains to be done if modeling is to effectively contribute to more targeted and impactful breeding programs under changing climates. In a period in which CGIAR breeding programs are undergoing a major modernization process, crop modelers will need to be part of crop improvement teams, with a common understanding of breeding pipelines and model capabilities and limitations, and common data standards and protocols, to ensure they follow and deliver according to clearly defined breeding products. This will, in turn, enable more rapid and better‐targeted crop modeling activities, thus directly contributing to accelerated and more impactful breeding efforts.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in diabetic foot ulceration: Useless or useful? A battle
Authors: Löndahl Magnus , Boulton Andrew J.M. 
Published: January 2020

AbstractThe use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) in the treatment of certain types of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) has been the topic of much debate and disagreement over the last several decades. In this review, the evidence for its use is presented and discussed by two experts in DFU management. Whereas some randomized controlled trials suggest that HBO may speed the healing of certain ischaemic or neuroischaemic ulcers after the failure of standard of care, most recent trials have been negative. No RCT is perfect, and the weaknesses of RCTs in this therapeutic area are discussed. It can be concluded that the indications for the use of HBO remain unclear, and that large, rigorously designed and executed RCTs are required to clarify the use of HBO in DFU treatment.
Characterization of Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Southern Brazil

Published: January 2020

AbstractSix olive oils extracted from the cultivars Arbequina, Arbosana, Coratina, Frantoio, Koroneiki, and Picual from 2017 and 2018 harvests, cultivated in Pinheiro Machado, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, are evaluated for standard oil composition parameters and bioactive constituents (pigments, tocopherols, and phenolic compounds). Multivariate principal component analysis (PCA) and univariate ANOVA and Fisher's LSD test are used to verify the effect of cultivar and harvest year on oil composition. Olive oil composition met extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) standard parameters and is influenced by both cultivar and harvest year. EVOO produced in 2018 has greater chlorophyll, caffeic acid, ligstroside aglycone, hydroxyoleuropein aglycone, syringic acid, and hydroxytyrosol acetate contents than the EVOOs from 2017. Linoleic acid, ferulic acid, ligstroside aglycone, and hydroxytyrosol acetate are the variables whose contents most contributed to the differentiation of oils by cultivar in both harvest years. Chemical characterization analyses allow for the differentiation of oil composition based on harvest year and cultivar. Metabolic quality data obtained here support the establishment of a local EVOO profile and the compounds that most contributed to treatment differentiation may serve as markers that can be utilized in determining origin, cultivar, and harvest year.Practical Applications: Olive production in Brazil is recent and is based on European cultivars which have not been bred for the local environmental conditions. Therefore, the measurement of olive oil metabolic quality will determine cultivar adaptability to local edaphoclimatic conditions as well as assist in the establishment of a standard of identity for the product and promote the development of its market. Olive oil produced in Southern Brazil shows high quality, and is especially rich in phenolic compounds. Although harvest year influences oil composition, oil from both harvests meet EVOO standards and cultivar specific metabolic markers are observed. This study provides the foundation for olive producers in Southern Brazil to seek authentication of the geographical origin of olive oil.
Optimization of distributed detection in energy harvesting wireless sensor networks with multiple antenna fusion center
Authors: Choubin Morteza , Taherpour Abbas 
Published: January 2020

AbstractThis paper addresses the detection improvement using multiple antenna fusion center (FC) and optimal collaboration among sensors with energy harvesting (EH) capability in WSNs. Using multiple antennas at FC, we benefit from the available fundamental spatial diversity in distributed WSN. We formulate to maximize the probability of collaborative detection based on parameters of collaboration among sensors and the energy of each sensor for the different scenarios as the optimization problem. In particular, we consider several practical constraints for EH and battery energy storage to maintain network connectivity. The objective function is the nonconvex function so the optimization problem is obtained as the nonconvex problem. To resolve this issue, the objective function is converted to a convex function using a relaxation method, and an optimum solution is obtained for this problem using local optimum values. The numerical results show the impact of the different parameters on the performance of the collaborative decision. These results also demonstrate that using distributed spatial diversity at FC by multiple antennas leads to a better decision in terms of error probability, and distributed wireless sensor‐enabled with EH capability results to more robust network connectivity in practice.
