Pedro A. San Martín y la recuperación del patrimonio nobiliario murciano: Los palacios de Guevara, Riquelme y el Contraste
Authors: García Alcazar Silvia 
Published: June 2020

Pedro San Martín Moro fue un arquitecto y arqueólogo estrechamente vinculado con la Región de Murcia y la salvaguarda de su patrimonio monumental durante el periodo del Desarrollismo franquista. En 1967 fue nombrado Arquitecto ayudante de la Séptima Zona siendo, de facto, quien asumió los trabajos de restauración de edificios y yacimientos arqueológicos de la región. Uno de los ámbitos que trabajó fue el patrimonio arquitectónico nobiliario el cual venía experimentando importantes cambios, daños y pérdidas. Intervino edificios aún en uso que, afortunadamente, no corrían un peligro acuciante de desaparición como el caso del Palacio de Guevara en Lorca. Pero también asumió retos más arriesgados como el caso de los Palacios de Riquelme y del Contraste de la Seda, ambos en Murcia, de los que, tras diferentes avatares, solo se conservaron sus portadas que fueron recuperadas por San Martín y reutilizadas en otros emplazamientos.
Pedro San Martín Moro was an architect and archaeologist who worked in the conservation of the monumental heritage of the Region of Murcia during Desarrollismo. In 1967 he was designated Assistant Architect in the “Septima Zona” restoring important buildings and archaeological sites. He also worked with the damaged architectural heritage of noble families like the palaces of Guevara at Lorca, Riquelme and Contraste de la Seda, at Murcia both of them. The first one just had an aesthetic restoration to return it to its original state. Of the other two palaces just remained their façades that were recovered by San Martín and reused in new places.
Performing with Plants in the Ob-scene Anthropocene
Authors: Arlander Annette 
Published: June 2020

Is there a way for the anthropocentric and anthropomorphic art form par excellence, the theatre, or performance art for that matter, to expand beyond their human and humanist bias? Is the term Anthropocene in any way useful for theatre and performance studies or performance-as-research?
In the anthology Anthropocene Feminism (Grusin 2017) Rosi Braidotti proposes four theses for a posthumanist feminism: 1) feminism is not a humanism, 2) anthropos is off-center, 3) zoe is the ruling principle, 4) sexuality is a force beyond gender. These assertions can undoubtedly be put on stage, but do they have relevance for developing or understanding performance practices off-stage and off-center, such as those trying to explore alternative ways and sites of performing, like performing with plants?
In this text, I examine Braidotti’s affirmative theses and explore their usefulness with regard to performance analysis, use some of my experiments in the artistic research project “Performing with plants” as examples, and consider what the implications and possible uses of these theses are for our understanding of performances with other-than-human entities, which we share our planet with.
Femmes et violence policière : réflexions féministes sur le pluralisme violent dans les favelas de Rio de Janeiro au Brésil
Authors: Veillette Anne-Marie 
Published: June 2020

Cet article se penche sur la violence policière en contexte de « pluralisme violent » tel que défini par Arias et Goldstein (2010), dans une perspective féministe et intersectionnelle. Les résultats s’appuient sur des données qualitatives obtenues lors d’entrevues, de groupes de discussions et d’observations participantes dans le cadre de deux recherches de terrain menées dans treize favelas de la ville de Rio de Janeiro au Brésil auprès de quarante résidentes en 2016 et 2018. L’article développe deux arguments principaux. Premièrement, malgré l’invisibilisation des expériences des femmes afrodescendantes, celles-ci ne sont pas épargnées par la violence policière qui repose sur les rapports sociaux de classe, de race, de genre et de spatialité. Deuxièmement, considérant la récurrence des incursions violentes de la police, les femmes afrodescendantes doivent assumer une charge de travail supplémentaire, principalement en ce qui a trait au travail ducare, qui continue d’être socialement dévolu aux femmes. Se protéger de la violence policière au quotidien s’articule ainsi fortement à une forme decarepréventive (ou « dirty care ») qui alourdit et complexifie considérablement la vie quotidienne. Cet article propose de concevoir la violence policière comme un élément fondamental de la violence urbaine dans les favelas, elle-même reliée au contexte plus large de pluralisme violent qui caractérise nombre de « démocraties » en Amérique latine. Ainsi, l’éclairage féministe porté sur la violence policière a aussi pour ambition de contribuer à une compréhension du pluralisme violent qui prenne en considération la continuité des violences raciales et les rapports sociaux de genre.
Limpet disturbance effects on barnacle recruitment are related to recruitment intensity but not recruit size
Authors: Ellrich Julius A. , Yorisue Takefumi , Momota Kyosuke 
Published: June 2020

Intertidal limpets are important grazers along rocky coastlines worldwide that not only control algae but also influence invertebrates such as common barnacles. For instance, grazing limpets ingest settling barnacle cyprid larvae (hereafter cyprids) and push cyprids and barnacle recruits off the substrate. Such limpet disturbance effects (LDEs) can limit barnacle recruitment, a key demographic variable affecting barnacle population establishment and persistence. In this study, we examined limpet (Lottia cassis) disturbance to barnacle (Chthamalus dalli, Balanus glandula) recruitment on the Pacific coast of Hokkaido, Japan, as information on limpet-barnacle interactions from this region is missing. We investigated, for the first time, whether barnacle size and recruitment intensity influence LDEs on barnacle recruitment. Small barnacles may be less susceptible to LDEs than larger barnacles, because small size may reduce the propbability of limpet disturbance. Moreover, recruitment intensity can influence LDEs, as high recruitment can compensate for LDEs on barnacle recruitment density. In Hokkaido, C. dalli cyprids are smaller than B. glandula cyprids, and C. dalli recruitment is higher than B. glandula recruitment. Thus, we hypothesized that LDEs on C. dalli recruitment would be weaker than those on B. glandula recruitment. To test our hypothesis, we conducted a field experiment during which we manipulated limpet presence/absence on the interior surfaces of ring-shaped cages. After four weeks, we measured barnacle recruitment and recruit size on the interior surfaces of the cages and found negative LDEs on C. dalli and B. glandula recruitment and recruit size. As hypothesized, the LDEs on C. dalli recruitment were weaker than the LDEs on B. glandula recruitment. Additionally, C. dalli recruits were smaller than B. glandula recruits. However, the LDEs on C. dalli recruit size were as strong as the LDEs on B. glandula recruit size, indicating that the smaller C. dalli recruits are not less susceptible to LDEs than B. glandula recruits. Since C. dalli recruitment was higher than B. glandula recruitment, we propose that the higher C. dalli recruitment compensated for the LDEs on C. dalli recruitment. Our findings indicate that the detected differences in LDEs on barnacle recruitment are related to barnacle recruitment intensity but not recruit size.
Anti Inflammatory and Anti Viral Effects of Potassium (K) and Chemical Composition of Moringa
Authors: Ignatov Ignat 
Published: June 2020

Moringa grows in parts of Africa and Asia and is a flowering plant from herb to tree. There are 13 types of Moringa. It is growing in the Himalayas in northwestern India. In Africa, it grows in Kenya, Somalia, Ethiopia, Madagascar, Ghana, Nigeria and more. For capsules, leaves and roots are used. Oil is used for nuts.
Moringa in the research was from Thailand. The colors of flowers were white and yellow.
Moringa is characterized by high levels of potassium (K). Patients with COVID-19 caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus have a decrease in potassium levels in the body.
In 2017, the author makes a spectral analysis of Moringa oil (Ignatov, 2017). The analysis justifies the application of Moringa for coronaviruses.
The great advantage of Moringa is that potassium and the chemical compounds are in organic form and are well absorbed by the body.
Mathematical Analysis and Stochastic Stability of Nonlinear Epidemic Model with Incidence Rate
Authors: Chahrazed Laid 
Published: June 2020

In this work, we consider a nonlinear epidemic model with temporary immunity and saturated incidence rate. Size N(t) at time t, is divided into three sub classes, with N(t)=S(t)+I(t)+Q(t); where S(t), I(t) and Q(t) denote the sizes of the population susceptible to disease, infectious and quarantine members with the possibility of infection through temporary immunity, respectively.
We have made the following contributions:

The local stabilities of the infection-free equilibrium and endemic equilibrium are; analyzed, respectively. The stability of a disease-free equilibrium and the existence of other nontrivial equilibria can be determine by the ratio called the basic reproductive number,
This paper study the reduce model with replace S with N, which does not have non-trivial periodic orbits with conditions.
The endemic -disease point is globally asymptotically stable if R0 ˃1; and study some proprieties of equilibrium with theorems under some conditions.
Finally the stochastic stabilities with the proof of some theorems.

In this work, we have used the different references cited in different studies and especially the writing of the non-linear epidemic mathematical model with [1-7]. We have used the other references for the study the different stability and other sections with [8-26]; and sometimes the previous references.

Authors: Prasannath Vanitha 
Published: June 2020

Aims: The study aims to identify the coconut export market of Sri Lanka based on market share and market growth and to classify coconut-importing countries using BCG matrix in order to facilitate potential strategic marketing decisions.
Study Design: This is a quantitative study based on secondary data.
Place and Duration of Study: This study is based on Sri Lanka’s coconut exporting sector. The secondary data were collected from 2009 to 2019 from the various annual report of Central Bank of Sri Lanka, export performance report of Export Development Board of Sri Lanka and TRADEMAP.
Methodology: The data were first tabulated and then generated as graphs to display market share and growth. The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) matrix was used to classify coconut export market into four groups, namely stars, cash cows, question marks and dogs.
Results: Export performance of coconut sector increased based on the export value. Similarly, the percentage share of coconut exports to the total exports increased from 3.5% to 5.5% over the last decade. United States of America (USA), Germany and the United Kingdom (UK) are significant importers of Sri Lankan coconut and coconut-based products. India, Mexico and Australia showed a growing trend in the growth of market share for coconut and coconut-based products. According to the BCG matrix, the USA is categorised under the star market, and no countries fall in the cash cow market. Sri Lankan coconut market with India, Mexico, Australia, Germany, France, Netherlands, United Arab Emirates (UAE), UK, South Korea, Italy, Canada, Japan, China, Spain and Russia fall into question mark markets. Turkey, Pakistan, Egypt and Iran are grouped into dogs market category.
Conclusion: By identifying the position of the country at the BCG matrix, the coconut industry would carry out activities and projects to earn additional income and capture more world market share for coconut and coconut-based products. Policymakers should consider the position of the country while implementing related policies.
Projeto de nação e formação econômica: é possível encontrar indícios de uma Administração Política nos planos macroeconômicos do Brasil?
Authors: Costa Ines Lyra , Simões Paulo Everton , D'Amorim Jr Nid Dutra 
Published: June 2020

O presente ensaio se preocupou em identificar, no âmbito dos planos macroeconômicos engendrados desde a implantação do modo de produção capitalista no Brasil, indícios da presença da Administração Política no país. Para tanto, realizou-se um resgate histórico do processo de acumulação capitalista desde a era Vargas, denominado de acumulação restringida, passando pelo período da substituição de importações de Juscelino Kubitschek, que marcou a fase da acumulação plena e implantou o centro dinâmico do processo de industrialização - o departamento de bens de consumo capitalista. Por fim, desemboca-se na implantação do departamento de bens de capital na gestão do presidente militar Ernesto Geisel sob o Brasil em Marcha Forçada.
Acredita-se que durante o período de 1930 a 1984 houve indícios da consecução de um Projeto de Nação, mas que se perdeu a partir daí em função da força dos preceitos neoliberais cujos alicerces se fundamentam numa ideologia que enaltece apenas a busca pela estabilização (planos de controle da inflação) em detrimento do fortalecimento das relações sociais de produção mediados pelo Estado.

Published: June 2020

AbstractBackgroundResearch training is important for all resident physicians to be able to interpret and critically appraise scientific literature. It is particularly important for those desiring future careers in academics or research. However, there is limited literature on research training in residency. The ideal scope and content of a model curriculum for research in emergency medicine (EM) residency programs has not been recently defined.MethodsWe used a modified Delphi method to achieve expert consensus as to what content should be included in a model research curriculum for EM residents as well as for those who choose to undertake an elective in EM research.ResultsEight experts in EM clinical and education research participated in the modified Delphi process with two rounds of responses. Cronbach's alpha was 0.82 for round 1 and 0.95 for round 2. A curricular outline of 44 items was produced by this consensus process.ConclusionsA model curriculum for EM research is proposed here, along with references to assist residencies in building curricular components.

AbstractProtein phosphatase 1 catalytic subunit beta (PPP1CB) is a disease‐causing gene of Noonan‐like syndrome, which acts via the RAS/MAPK pathway. To date, only 17 patients diagnosed with PPP1CB‐related Noonan‐like syndrome have been reported around the world, with few reports in Asia. Twelve reported patients are of short stature and only one patient was treated with growth hormone (GH); however, follow‐up data is lacking. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported patient with complete recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) treatment follow‐up data; the patient has a de novo c.146C>G (p.Pro49Arg) mutation in the PPP1CB gene. The hair pattern of the patient (coarse, curly, slow growing, and fragile) combined with Noonan dysmorphic features, developmental delay, and congenital heart disease, are highly consistent with the typical features observed in Noonan syndrome‐like disorder with loose anagen hair 2 (NSLH2). rhGH treatment, administered for 3 years and 8 months, promoted the patient's linear growth. Our findings expand the data regarding the treatment of short stature in patients with NSLH2 caused by PPP1CB mutation. Clinical manifestation, growth and development process, and rhGH therapy effect data will aid in future revision of the relevant diagnosis and treatment guidelines.

Published: June 2020

AbstractMore and more women rely on non‐invasive prenatal screening (NIPS) to detect fetal sex and risk for aneuploidy. The testing applies massively parallel sequencing or single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) microarray to circulating cell‐free DNA to determine relative copy number. In addition to trisomies 13, 18, and 21, some labs offer screening for sex chromosome abnormalities as part of their test. In this study, an index neonate screened positive for monosomy X and had discordant postnatal chromosomes indicating an X;autosome translocation. This patient prompted a retrospective chart review for similar cases at a large NIPS testing center. The review found 28 patients with an abnormal NIPS for monosomy X who were eventually diagnosed with additional discrepant structural sex chromosome abnormalities including translocations, isochromosomes, deletions, rings, markers, and uniparental disomy. The majority of these were mosaic with monosomy X, but in seven cases, there was no evidence of mosaicism on confirmatory testing. The identification of multiple sex chromosome aneuploidies in these cases supports the need for additional genetic counseling prior to NIPS testing and following abnormal NIPS results that are positive for monosomy X. This finding broadens our knowledge about the variable outcomes of positive monosomy X NIPS results and emphasizes the importance of confirmatory testing and clinical follow up for these patients.

BackgroundPovidone‐iodine (PVP‐I) is well known as an antiseptic and exhibits extensive activity against various pathogens. However, due to its uniquely unpleasant nature, it cannot be used locally to deactivate various sinonasal pathogens. Therefore, we developed a PVP‐I composite that blocks the unpleasant odor of PVP‐I for use as a local antiseptic in the sinonasal cavity and evaluated its effect on bacterial biofilm's formation and elimination in in vivo and in vitro models.MethodsMTT, lactate dehydrogenase, and live/dead staining assay were performed to examine the cellular toxicity of PVP‐I composites on the primary human nasal epithelial and RPMI 2650 cells. Crystal violet assay was performed to quantify bacterial biofilm after treating with various agents, including PVP‐I and antibiotics. Hematoxylin‐and‐eosin staining, live/dead staining assay, and scanning electron microscopy were conducted to evaluate the effect of PVP‐I on biofilm formation in a mice biofilm model.ResultsIt was observed that the PVP‐I composite did not have any significant toxic effect on the nasal epithelial cells. Furthermore, the PVP‐I composite effectively inhibited the formation of bacterial biomass within a dose‐dependent manner after 48 hours of incubation with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. In mice, it effectively eliminated biofilm from the mucosa of the nasal cavity and maxillary sinus at the tested concentrations.ConclusionThe results of this study indicate that the PVP‐I composite is a promising compound that could be used locally to prevent the formation of biofilms and to eliminate them from the sinonasal cavity.
Construction of biocompatible bilayered light‐driven actuator composed of rGO/PNIPAM and PEGDA hydrogel
Authors: Yang Liai , Zhang Ting , Sun Wei 
Published: June 2020

AbstractTo construct an actuator with biocompatibility and potential use in biomedicine field, a light‐driven actuator composed of reduced graphene oxide (rGO)/poly (N‐isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAM) and poly (ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) hydrogel is constructed. First, rGO/PNIPAM hydrogel is prepared by free radical polymerization and l‐ascorbic acid reduction, of which the surface temperature increases quickly under near‐infrared (NIR) laser indicating the efficient photothermal conversion of rGO. The results of cytotoxicity tests demonstrate that rGO/PNIPAM is biocompatible and has no obvious toxicity to myoblast line C2C12 cells. Second, bilayer hydrogel composed of rGO/PNIPAM and PEGDA is prepared using a similar method layer‐by‐layer. The bilayer strip bends towards rGO/PNIPAM under NIR laser. The bending is improved after reduction. The laser power density has a strong impact on the bending rate and degree. The reversible bending deformation indicates the structural stability. All the above results approve that the bilayer actuator has great potential to be applied in biomedicine fields such as organ‐on‐chip, drug‐carrier, or surgical aid.
Preparation and investigation of acid–base composite membranes with modified graphitic carbon nanosheets for direct methanol fuel cells

Published: June 2020

AbstractThe ethylenediamine‐modified graphite oxide (EGO)‐doped sulfonated poly (arylene ether ketone) (SPEEK) composite membranes have been prepared and developed for fuel cell applications in the present work. The base‐modified EGO improves the dispersion of inorganic nanosheet in the polymer matrix and enhances proton conductivity by creating continuous conduction pathways. Furthermore, the methanol barrier property also be enhanced due to the nanosheet block the methanol‐transport channels. EGO‐filled membranes display improved dimensional stability, proton conductivity, and ethanol permeability than those using SPEEK control and graphite oxide (GO)‐filled membranes. In the direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs), the SPEEK/EGO‐1.5 membrane displays the highest current density of 395.9 mA/cm2at 60°C, which is 1.6‐ and 1.4‐fold higher than that of SPEEK (254.0 mA/cm2) and SPEEK/GO membrane (292.6 mA/cm2).
Vapor treatment, liquid crystal formation, magnetic orientation, and crystallization (VLMC) to form helical polyisocyanides with oriented crystal‐like structure

Published: June 2020

AbstractWe describe a four‐step process [solvent vapor treatment, liquid crystal formation, magnetic orientation, and crystallization (VLMC)] for producing oriented helical polyisocyanides with crystal‐like structure. We synthesized a series of ortho‐alkyl groups substituted with poly(phenyl isocyanide), and characterized the polymer structure using polarizing optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and X‐ray diffraction. The results demonstrated that the polymer has a crystal‐like structure and the sample forms cholesteric liquid crystal phase. Vapor treatment of polymer films under a magnetic field produced an aligned fiber structure at the submicron level and demonstrated magnetic alignment and formation of a solvent vapor‐induced polymer crystal. These results demonstrated formation of a polymer with a one‐handed helical structure, formation of a liquid crystal and polymer crystal via solvent vapor treatment, and magnetic alignment of a textile‐like polymer crystal domain.
