ASPETTI ETICI DELLA RICERCA E DELL’INNOVAZIONE TECNOLOGICA: IL CASO DELL’INFORMATICA | MONDI VIRTUALI, RETI SOCIALI, SISTEMI AUTONOMI “INTELLIGENTI”
Authors: Ghezzi Carlo 
Published: November 2019

Advances in research and technological innovations in Informatics are revolutionizing our society. We already live in a cyber-physical world: interaction and collaboration among humans occurs seamlessly both in physical and in virtual spaces and virtual agents automate tasks at all levels, including those that traditionally relied on human intelligence. Access to data and information is available to everybody, anywhere and at any time, eliminating barriers but also generating potential distorted usage. Whatever humans do is inevitably mediated by technology, which potentially invades the private sphere of individuals. Changes are happening so fast and their effects are so spectacular that their ethical implications are often understood too late or underestimated. This contribution briefly introduces the disruptive changes produced by advances in Informatics and their severe ethical implications. It argues that an interdisciplinary effort is needed to focus on ethical issues while research and innovation are developed rather than as an after-the-fact reflection.
Simple Formulas for Constellations and Bipartite Maps with Prescribed Degrees
Authors: Louf Baptiste 
Published: November 2019

AbstractWe obtain simple quadratic recurrence formulas counting bipartite maps on surfaces with prescribed degrees (in particular, $2k$-angulations) and constellations. These formulas are the fastest known way of computing these numbers.Our work is a natural extension of previous works on integrable hierarchies (2-Toda and KP), namely, the Pandharipande recursion for Hurwitz numbers (proved by Okounkov and simplified by Dubrovin–Yang–Zagier), as well as formulas for several models of maps (Goulden–Jackson, Carrell–Chapuy, Kazarian–Zograf). As for those formulas, a bijective interpretation is still to be found. We also include a formula for monotone simple Hurwitz numbers derived in the same fashion.These formulas also play a key role in subsequent work of the author with T. Budzinski establishing the hyperbolic local limit of random bipartite maps of large genus.
Reconstructing patterns of coastal risk in space and time along the US Atlantic coast, 1970–2016
Authors: Armstrong Scott B. , Lazarus Eli D. 
Published: November 2019

Abstract. Despite interventions intended to reduce impacts of coastal hazards, the risk of damage along the US Atlantic coast continues to rise. This reflects a long-standing paradox in disaster science: even as physical and social insights into disaster events improve, the economic costs of disasters keep growing. Risk can be expressed as a function of three components: hazard, exposure, and vulnerability. Risk may be driven up by coastal hazards intensifying with climate change, or by increased exposure of people and infrastructure in hazard zones. But risk may also increase because of interactions, or feedbacks, between hazard, exposure, and vulnerability. Using empirical records of shoreline change, valuation of owner-occupied housing, and beach-nourishment projects to represent hazard, exposure, and vulnerability, here we present a data-driven model that describes trajectories of risk at the county scale along the US Atlantic coast over the past 5 decades. We also investigate quantitative relationships between risk components that help explain these trajectories.
We find higher property exposure in counties where hazard from shoreline
change has appeared to reverse from high historical rates of shoreline erosion to low rates in recent decades. Moreover, exposure has increased more in counties that have practised beach nourishment intensively. The
spatio-temporal relationships that we show between exposure and hazard, and
between exposure and vulnerability, indicate a feedback between coastal
development and beach nourishment that exemplifies the “safe development
paradox”, in which hazard protections encourage further development in
places prone to hazard impacts. Our findings suggest that spatially explicit modelling efforts to predict future coastal risk need to address feedbacks between hazard, exposure, and vulnerability to capture emergent patterns of risk in space and time.
Lithospheric image of the Central Iberian Zone (Iberian Massif) using global-phase seismic interferometry

Published: November 2019

Abstract. The Spanish Central System is an intraplate mountain range that divides the
Iberian Inner Plateau in two sectors – the northern Duero Basin and the
Tajo Basin to the south. The topography of the area is highly variable with
the Tajo Basin having an average altitude of 450–500 m and the Duero Basin
having a higher average altitude of 750–800 m. The Spanish Central System
is characterized by a thick-skin pop-up and pop-down configuration formed by
the reactivation of Variscan structures during the Alpine orogeny. The high
topography is, most probably, the response of a tectonically thickened crust
that should be the response to (1) the geometry of the Moho discontinuity, (2) an imbricated crustal architecture, and/or (3) the rheological properties of
the lithosphere. Shedding some light on these features is the main
target of the current investigation. In this work, we present the
lithospheric-scale model across this part of the Iberian Massif. We have
used data from the Central Iberian Massif Deformation (CIMDEF) project, which consists of recordings of an
almost-linear array of 69 short-period seismic stations, which define a 320
km long transect. We have applied the so-called global-phase seismic
interferometry. The technique uses continuous recordings of
global earthquakes (>120∘ epicentral distance)
to extract global phases and their reverberations within the lithosphere.
The processing provides an approximation of the zero-offset reflection
response of a single station to a vertical source, sending (near)-vertical
seismic energy. Results indeed reveal a clear thickening of the crust below
the Central System, resulting, most probably, from an imbrication of the
lower crust. Accordingly, the crust–mantle boundary is mapped as a relatively
flat interface at approximately 10 s two-way travel time except in the
Central System, where this feature deepens towards the NW reaching more than
12 s. The boundary between the upper and lower crust is well defined and is
found at 5 s two-way travel time. The upper crust has a very distinctive
signature depending on the region. Reflectivity at upper-mantle depths is
scattered throughout the profile, located between 13 and 18 s, and probably
related to the Hales discontinuity.
A História de Crianças que viveram o Isolamento Compulsório no Educandário Eunice Weaver em Belém do Pará (1942- 1980)
Authors: Pacheco Tatiana do Socorro Corrêa 
Published: November 2019

Este artigo apresenta alguns resultados da pesquisa realizada no doutorado em Educação que teve como objetivo central explicitar a infância e as experiências educativas de crianças que não possuíam hanseníase, mas viveram isoladas no Educandário Eunice Weaver em Belém/Pará. A singularidade do grupo que frequentou a instituição os tornou atores centrais nesse processo de isolamento, nos direcionando para um estudo que nos possibilitasse apreender e registrar as experiências dos sujeitos que vivenciaram as suas infâncias naquele espaço e tempo. Os procedimentos adotados foram à entrevista em história oral híbrida e temática e a pesquisa documental. Organizamos as fontes orais em temáticas com base nas experiências mais significativas que emergiram das narrativas dos ex-internos sobre a infância e o cotidiano das crianças na instituição, com o intuito de nos aproximarmos da vida das crianças na instituição. Autores como Michel Foucault, Mikhail Bakhtin e Erving Goffman, nos deram aporte para as análises empreendidas. Os resultados da pesquisa revelam uma história de crianças que foram retiradas do convívio com seus familiares e do convívio social, construindo assim uma forma de se vivenciar a infância baseada no isolamento, no controle dos corpos infantis por meio do disciplinamento e da violência física e psicológica.

Published: November 2019

La inteligencia emocional es importante en la forma en que las emociones son adquiridas, procesadas y reguladas. Uno de los posibles riesgos psicosociales es el síndrome de Burnout, entendiéndose como el cansancio emocional. El mindfulness, es una práctica que nos hace tomar la conciencia de los sucesos internos que sentimos, donde se adopta una actitud de aceptación propia. El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo realizar una revisión sistemática que aborden las relaciones entre la inteligencia emocional y el síndrome de Burnout, a través de la práctica de Mindfulness. La búsqueda se realizó en la Web of Science, que tras aplicar los criterios de inclusión y exclusión se obtuvo una muestra de 22 artículos entre los años 2000-2017. Como principales conclusiones se expone la estrecha relación entre aspectos psicosociales y emocionales, pues los procesos estresantes difieren con la inteligencia emocional, hecho que se controla con el Mindfulness.
Emotional intelligence is important in the way emotions are acquired, processed, and regulated. One of the possible psychosocial risks is Burnout syndrome, understood as emotional fatigue. The mindfulness, is a practice that makes us aware of internal events that we feel, where it adopts an attitude of self-acceptance. The aim of this work is to carry out a systematic review that addresses the relationships between emotional intelligence and Burnout syndrome, through the practice of Mindfulness... The search was carried out in the Web of Science, which after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria obtained a sample of 22 articles between the years 2000-2017. The main conclusions are the close relationship between psychosocial and emotional aspects, since stressful processes differ with emotional intelligence, a fact that is controlled with Mindfulness.
Characterization of aminopeptidase encoding gene anp-1 and its association with development in Caenorhabditis elegans
Authors: Su Shanchun , Pan Baoliang , Hu Yanxin , Wang Ming 
Published: November 2019

Background
Aminopeptidases play important roles in various biological processes in nematodes including growth, development and reproduction. Although the aminopeptidases have been shown to regulate reproduction in Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans), the role of aminopeptidases in development and aging has not been reported. This study focused on the function of aminopeptidase AlaNyl aminopeptidase 1 (ANP-1) on development in C. elegans.

Methods
In the present study, we reported the identification of ANP-1 in C. elegans along with sequence analysis and its functional expression and characterization. The phenotype changes were observed when anp-1 mutated. Then, differential expression genes (DEGs) between wild type strain (N2) and anp-1 deletion strain (RB804) were identified using transcriptome sequencing method. Finally, DEGs were verified by qRT-PCR assay.

Results
Our observations suggested that anp-1 mutation induced small body size in the L4/young adult stage of C. elegans, however, there was no difference between N2 and RB804 in adult stage. Moreover, deletion of anp-1 resulted in shortening lifespan and laying fewer eggs. DEGs (184 genes) were observed between N2 groups and RB804 groups by transcriptome sequencing. According to GO annotations and KEGG enrichment analysis, these DEGs play vital roles in development regulation in C. elegans. These data demonstrate ANP-1 participates in development and aging of C. elegans and will considerably contribute to the existing knowledge of aminopeptidase function in C. elegans.

Introduction: Chickens in extensive and semi-intensive poultry production systems account for more than 75% of all poultry in the Southern Nigeria.
Aims: To design, construct and test a thermal control solar heated poultry house.
Methodology: Thermally controlled solar heated poultry house was designed and constructed in the Department of Agricultural and Environmental Engineering Research Farm, Federal University of Technology, Akure, Nigeria. The poultry house consists of seven sections/rooms of which five rooms were regulated into five different temperature levels while one of the last two serve as control experiment section and the other serve as the observation section. The poultry house was tested and evaluated using developed and calibrated data logger to determine the environmental condition in the thermally controlled animal house with respect to the ambient conditions. The results obtained from the pre-stock test were analyzed graphically using Microsoft excel software version 2016
Results: The dry bulb temperature in the poultry house is 28.91±0.02ºC, 31.75±0.14ºC, 34.93 ±0.06ºC, 37.92±0.07ºC, 40.95±0.06ºC and 26.47±1.72ºC for sections with preconditioned temperature of 29ºC, 32ºC, 35ºC, 38ºC 41ºC and control respectively, dry bulb temperature in the poultry house is 20.39±0.32ºC, 21.64±0.1ºC, 19.13±0.2ºC, 17.57±0.27ºC, 16.26±0.27ºC and 24.77 ±0.1ºC for sections with preconditioned temperature of 29ºC, 32ºC, 35ºC, 38ºC 41ºC and control respectively, the relative humidity in the poultry house is 44.69±2.37%, 41.9±1.21%, 38.43±0.38%, 33.8.
Conclusion: There was little or no temperature stability in the non-thermally controlled section of the poultry house, the temperature of the thermally controlled section of the poultry house was found in a close range with low deviation from the preset temperature in the sections.

Published: November 2019

A field experiment was carried out at Breeder seed Production Centre (BSPC), Debiganj, Panchagarh during the Rabi season of 2016-2017 to study the effect of five levels of sulphur application on yield and quality attributes of three potato varieties. The main objective of the experiment was to determine the effect of sulphur on the yield and quality of potato varieties. There were five treatments comprising different levels of sulphur such as T1 (control-no sulphur), T2 (75% RDS), T3 (100% RDS), T4 (125% RDS) and T5 (150% RDS). Three BARI released potato variety; BARI Alu 36 (4.26 R), BARI Alu 40 (4.45W) and BARI Alu 25 (Asterix) were used in this experiment. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. The tuber yield and yield contributing characters were significantly influenced by the application of sulphur. Maximum tuber yield (39.28 t/ha) was recorded in BARI Alu 40 (4.45 w). Highest dry matter content, specific gravity and starch content were found in BARI Alu 40 (4.45 w), which was followed by BARI Alu 36 (4.26 R) in case of specific gravity and starch content. Sulphur application in potato varieties showed significant influence on tuber yield of potato. This parameter increased with increasing dose of sulphur up to 100% RDS. Thereafter, further increase in sulphur did not showed any remarkable influence. Besides, sulphur application in potato varieties showed significant influence on tuber quality of potato. The maximum dry matter yield and starch yield were recorded in the treatment T3, which was followed by all other treatments except T1. The minimum dry matter yield and starch yield were recorded in the treatment T1. Combined effect showed insignificant influences between varieties and sulphur levels. BARI Alu 40 (4.45 w) was found superior over other varieties in terms of yield and quality attributes. Treatment T3 (100% RDS) was found superior over other treatments in terms of yield.
Adherence to Isoniazid Preventive Therapy (IPT) among Children in Close Contact with Adult Pulmonary Tuberculosis (PTB) Patients
Authors: Paul Nsirimobu Ichendu , Gabriel-Job Nneka 
Published: November 2019

Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) is among the top ten leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally, and studies have shown that adherence to a six Month course of Isoniazid Preventive Therapy (IPT) reduces the incidence of TB disease in HIV-negative/positive populations at risk of developing active TB disease.
Objective: This study was carried out to identify active TB cases among children aged 0-5 years who are in close contact with adult cases of pulmonary TB (PTB), to determine the adherence rate to IPT among these close contacts that do not have active TB and to identify factors associated with non adherence if any.
Methodology: This study was a prospective descriptive study carried out in Rivers state, Nigeria in two health facilities that offers services for TB diagnosis and treatment. Ethical approval for the study was obtained from the Rivers State Ministry of Health while verbal consent was obtained from the parents/caregivers of the children. Children aged 0-5 years who were in close contact with newly diagnosed PTB cases were recruited for the study. They were screened for HIV and evaluated for TB using clinical features and standard laboratory investigations. Those without active TB disease were commenced on isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) for six months at a daily dose of 5mg/kg after adherence counselling and followed up at the health centres. Obtained data was analysed using Epi Info Version 7.2.3.1 statistical software. Descriptive statistics was used while the test for association between variables was done with chi-square test at p ≤ 0.05 level of significance. Frequency tables were used for presentation of results.
Results: A total of Sixty three children were recruited for the study 37 (58.7%) were males while 26 (41.3%) were females. Thirty two (50.8%) were children of index PTB patients while 29 (46.1%) belonged to lower socio-economic class. Their age ranged from 4 months to 4 years with a mean age of 2.84years ±1.27years. Six (16.2%) out of the 37 males and 2 (7.7%) out of the 26 females were confirmed to have active TB, giving a TB prevalence of 12.7%. The gender difference was not statistically significant (p= 0.32). Of the fifty five children that commenced INH in the first Month, only twenty four of them completed the six Month course of INH, giving an IPT adherence rate of 49.6%. Identified reasons for non adherence includes ‘My child is not sick’, ‘No transport Money’, ‘My child is writing exams”. “My child is tired of the drugs”, “the Health workers are not friendly’ and ‘long waiting time before collecting medications”.
Conclusion: Early contact tracing is important for early detection of TB cases in children. Adherence to IPT in this study is low and strategies like community tracing of defaulters using trained social workers and community nurses as well as use of well-supervised and convenient ambulatory treatment centres that are manned by trained lower cadre health staff can improve adherence.
