Abstract

Background
Alterations in mineral metabolism, such as high phosphorus, high parathyroid hormone (PTH), and high fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) have been identified as potential risk factors for heart failure (HF). Important differences in the prevalence of mineral metabolism abnormalities and in the risk of HF have been reported across race and/or ethnic groups. In this study, we evaluated whether the associations of mineral metabolism markers with HF differed by race and/or ethnicity.

Methods
We included participants free of cardiovascular disease from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis to quantify rates of HF overall and across race and/or ethnic groups. Using Cox models, we tested associations of baseline higher phosphorus (&gt;4 mg/dL), PTH greater than 65 pg/mL, and FGF-23 greater than 46.5 pg/mL with incident HF, and for interactions by race and/or ethnicity, adjusting for sociodemographic and cardiovascular risk factors.

Results
Among the 6413 participants, median follow-up time was 14.9 years. The incidence rate for HF was highest for African Americans and lowest for Chinese (4.71 and 2.42 per 1000 person-years, respectively). The prevalence of elevated PTH (18.8% vs 7.4%) but not FGF-23 (23.1% vs 28.8%) was higher in African Americans vs Whites. In multivariable models, the associations of elevated PTH (hazard ratio [HR] 1.50, 95% CI: 1.13-1.99) and FGF-23 (HR 1.37, 95% CI: 1.07-1.75) with incident HF were statistically significant. However, the interactions by race and/or ethnicity were not statistically significant.

Conclusions
In a multiethnic population, higher PTH and FGF-23 were associated with risk of HF in African American and Hispanic individuals. There is no evidence that race and/or ethnicity modifies the association of altered mineral metabolism with risk of HF.

Cel pracyCelem pracy była ocena wpływu jonów cynku, magnezu lub miedzi na skuteczność transportu biernego chlorowodorku imipraminy w modelu in vitro. Na podstawie wyników uzyskanych z eksperymentu dotyczącego transportu biernego, kolejnym celem badań było sprawdzenie skuteczności transportu aktywnego chlorowodorku imipraminy w obecności lub braku jonów cynku.MetodaBadanie transportu biernego przeprowadzono w specjalnie skonstruowanych na potrzeby eksperymentu kapsułach, natomiast do oceny transportu aktywnego wykorzystano linię ludzkich komórek CaCo-2. Zawartość cynku, magnezu i miedzi oznaczono metodą F-AAS. W analizie chlorowodorku imipraminy zastosowano metodę HPLC.WynikiŚrednie stężenia jonów cynku, magnezu i miedzi uzyskane w tym doświadczeniu wynosiły odpowiednio: 2,98, 1,34 i 3,52 mg/L. Wydajność transportu aktywnego chlorowodorku imipraminy w obecności jonów cynku zwiększyła się o 39%. Ponadto transport jonów cynku w obecności chlorowodorku imipraminy był o 27% większy niż w przypadku roztworów zawierających cynk bez chlorowodorku imipraminy. Wydłużenie czasu eksperymentu z 30 do 60 minut spowodowało wzrost efektywności transportu o ponad 10% w obu przypadkach.WnioskiStwierdzono, że na wydajność transportu biernego i aktywnego chlorowodorku imipraminy wpływa obecność jonów Mg, Zn i Cu. W obecności jonów miedzi i cynku transport bierny chlorowodorku imipraminy po 90 minutach doświadczenia był najefektywniejszy. Dalsze badania prowadzone na linii komórkowej CaCo-2 wykazały wyraźną pozytywną interakcję imipramina - cynk.

Authors: Szymańska-Pytlińska Marta 
Published: November 2019

Cel pracyArtykuł prezentuje polską wersję skali Body Image Self-Consciousness (BISC-PL) autorstwa Wiedermana.MetodaWłasności psychometryczne BISC-PL zweryfikowano w próbie 169 heteroseksualnych, młodych kobiet w wieku 18-35 lat (M=22,24, SD=3,61). Dla zbadania trafności teoretycznej polskiej wersji skali dokonano również pomiaru samooceny seksualnej, zadowolenia z ciała, doświadczeń heteroseksualnych, obserwacyjnej samokontroli i innych zmiennych.WynikiKonfirmacyjna analiza czynnikowa (z funkcją dopasowania WLSMV) potwierdziła jednoczynnikową strukturę BISC-PL. Współczynniki dobroci dopasowania modelu wyniosły CFI=,91, TLI=,90, RMSEA=,06, SRMR=,05. W większości przypadków analizy z użyciem wspomnianych wyżej zmiennych potwierdziły trafność teoretyczną adaptowanego narzędzia. Wyniki BISC-PL pozwalały przewidywać poziom samooceny seksualnej i ocenę siebie w roli partnera seksualnego badanych kobiet, wykraczając poza efekty wynikające z ich zadowolenia z ciała i oceny atrakcyjności własnego ciała. Narzędzie okazało się rzetelnym (α=,96) i trafnym wskaźnikiem samoświadomości obrazu ciała podczas fizycznej intymności z partnerem w badanej grupie kobiet.WnioskiPolską wersję narzędzia można uznać za porównywalną do wersji oryginalnej. BISC-PL może być rekomendowany jako użyteczne narzędzie uzupełniające polskie badania i praktykę. Wyniki przeprowadzonych analiz omówiono pod kątem ich ograniczeń i wskazano na przyszłe kierunki badań.

We once again acknowledge our reviewers for the insight and developmental critique which they so unstintingly offered. Each journal article is anonymised and subjected to ‘blind’ peer review by two reviewers and, in this process, it is inevitable that variations of interpretation and evaluation occurred, at times resulting in a third reviewer being consulted. We are grateful for the grace with which reviewers engaged and attempted to resolve any sticking points on such occasions. This has served to enhance the quality of our articles and strengthen our authors going forward.
Thanks to all the authors who made submissions to JOVACET and subjected their work to scrutiny. We trust that you will continue to contribute to this important vehicle for research in vocational, adult and continuing education and training.
Finally, the publication of this third issue of JOVACET was made possible by the Teaching and Learning Development Capacity Improvement Programme (TLDCIP) which is being implemented through a partnership between the Department of Higher Education and Training and the European Union. We are grateful for this support to the third issue of the journal, Volume 2, Issue 2.

Fundaciones privadas en la educación media pública de Uruguay
Authors: Pereda Cecilia 
Published: November 2019

Las fundaciones son uno de los actores que actualmente participan junto al Estado en la educación pública de diferentes países. En este artículo se estudia la participación de tres fundaciones en la educación media pública de Uruguay, un país con alta presencia estatal en la educación formal. Se propone un marco conceptual que articula aproximaciones a las privatizaciones educativas (Ball & Junemann, 2012; Ball & Youdell, 2007; Bellei & Orellana, 2014; Verger & Bonal, 2012) y a los regímenes de bienestar (Adelantado, 1999; Esping Andersen, 1998; Razavi, 2007) del que se desprenden tres dimensiones analíticas: estratégica, espacial y relacional. A partir de entrevistas a sus directores, de la lectura de diversos documentos y de algunas observaciones participantes se examinan las principales características de estas fundaciones y de su trabajo en la educación secundaria del país, las relaciones que establecen con las empresas, con las organizaciones sociales y con el Estado y el tipo de vínculo que promueven con los estudiantes y los docentes, así como las consecuencias de todo lo anterior para el sentido de lo público en la educación. Los resultados muestran diversidad en la dependencia empresarial así como en su integración a la educación pública de Uruguay. Advierten también sobre algunas tensiones que el Estado debe resolver para que la participación de las fundaciones amplíe y no obstaculice la construcción de los valores asociados a lo común y lo colectivo en la integración de todos los estudiantes a la educación media.

DIAMONT: a bilingual Android-based application to assist parents in the home-based management of childhood diarrhea – a concept
Authors: Fatimah Vita Arfiana Nurul , Mustafidah Hindayati , Fitri Ardhista Shabrina 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Diarrhea, defined as passing watery stool for three times or more per 24 h, may affect children’s growth and development and possesses a high mortality rate, particularly among children under 5 years old. Those poor outcomes result from water and electrolyte imbalance and poor nutrition status in children suffering from diarrhea. Management of childhood diarrhea, aiming to prevent dehydration and malnutrition, encompasses those covered in LINTAS DIARE (“Lima Langkah Tuntaskan Diare”) – guidance from the Ministry of Health of Indonesia to overcome childhood diarrhea in five steps. A concept of an Android-based application is designed in both English and Bahasa versions to guide parents as users in a home-based approach to recognize the dehydration status and danger signs of children with diarrhea. The application may also allow users to monitor water balance as well as management adequacy during the diarrhea period. Data such as child’s birth date, weight, and height; stool’s characteristics and frequency; and dehydration and warning signs are required to be input by users to allow the program to classify the dehydration status and suggest recommendation of actions. The advice provided is based on the LINTAS DIARE principles.

: Déjà vus and hallucinations in the digital semiosphere
Authors: Leone Massimo 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
The semiotics of phenomena like déjà vus and hallucinations constitute a limit-field of a theory of the sign, but one that offers opportunities to question the fundamental principles of the discipline while at the same time offering the opportunity to address their underlying cognitive processes. The article describes the cognitive nature of déjà vus and hallucinations, briefly reviews the literature about them, and reads them as cognitive perturbations in the light of a semiotics of mental simulacra related to perception, apperception, awareness, memory, and imagination. The article then uses such cognitive and semiotic modeling in order to develop a critique of present-day digital culture, in which the uncritical adoption of a mnemonic ideal based on digital memory jeopardizes one of the key features of embodied memory: imperfection and, as a consequence, the possibility to access aesthetic and temporal singularity. A collective memory prone to déjà vus and hallucinations ensues.
For a new semiotics in Construction Grammar: A statistical analysis of the relationship between transitive syntax and semantics
Authors: Lepesqueur Marcus , Tenuta Adriana Maria 
Published: November 2019

AbstractBy extending the notion of constructions beyond “irregular” structures, Goldberg (1995.Constructions: A construction grammar approach to argument structure. Chicago: University of Chicago Press) made possible the analysis of clause units as a global pattern associating syntax to principles for semantic interpretation. Despite this theoretical advance, Construction Grammar’s pairing of syntactic structure and conceptual form reflects Saussure’s signifier/signified semiotic model, which poses some issues. Problems arise when a single formal structure expresses distinct semantic patterns or, conversely, when semantics persists notwithstanding formal variation. In order to approach this unstable syntax/semantics interface, this work proposes a statistical methodology to capture the correlation between syntax and Hopper and Thompson's (1980. Transitivity in grammar and discourse.Language56(2). 251–299) parameters of transitivity. In a corpus of 7,939 clauses from 23 oral interviews, 690 randomly sampled clause units were analyzed using Generalized Estimating Equation. The data suggests that, in Brazilian Portuguese, most of those parameters are not particularly related to the prototypical transitive syntax and might be specified outside the scope of this clausal structure. Nonetheless, Affectedness is a syntax/semantic interface point that is, first, largely independent of lexical items and, second, capable of distinguishing transitive syntax from other clausal patterns. Based on this analysis, we conceive the Transitive Construction as a superordinate rule that acts upon the formal organization of a language, establishing clausal patterns both synchronically and diachronically.

Authors: Teal Tabatha , Emory Jan , Patton Susan 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Despite extensive research and technological advancements, errors related to medication administration continue to rise annually. The body of evidence surrounding medication errors has focused largely on licensed practicing nurses. Nursing students can offer a unique perspective regarding medication administration as their foundation for professional psychomotor skills and cognitive abilities are developed. The purpose of this study was to explore the variables related to medication errors made by pre-licensure nursing students. Data were collected from 2013–2015 in a pre-licensure program. Students completed a post-error survey available in Google Forms. One hundred thirteen responses to the error report were completed. By exploring the factors related to medication errors among nursing students, teaching and learning strategies forming the foundations of medication administration can improve professional nursing practice and improve safety and quality of care.

Published: November 2019

Abstract

Background
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is indicated by liver steatosis without excessive alcohol use or other liver disease. Several studies have reported that metabolic syndromes such as obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia have a linear correlation associated with NAFLD pathophysiology. One of the characteristics of dyslipidemia in NAFLD is increase in serum triglycerides. This study aimed to develop a model of NAFLD characterized by an increase in serum triglyceride levels and histological profile of liver steatosis by high-fat diet in rats.

Methods
Twelve Wistar rats were fed with pellets enriched with 60% fat. They were housed individually, and the remaining pellets were weighted every day for intake evaluation. Blood samples were collected at day 0 and at the end of each trial period at days 7, 14, 21, and 28 for the measurement of triglyceride levels. Every animal from each group was also sacrificed for liver histopathological examination.

Results
This study has established developing the NAFLD animal model by induction of a high-fat diet. The levels of serum triglycerides were increased from baseline 80.41 ± 12.82 to 1152.00 ± 73.62, 493.66 ± 159.98, 556.00 ± 120.79, and 489.00 ± 156.75 mg/dL at days 7, 14, 21, and 28, respectively. Liver histology also showed liver steatosis development, inflammation, and hepatocellular ballooning, which were associated with the NAFLD state.

Conclusions
High-fat diet in rats induced hypertriglyceridemia along with NAFLD-like liver histopathology.

Published: November 2019

Abstract
The National Library of Poland holds three historical collections with a unified visual form. The arrangement of the Wilanów collection was carried out in the first half of the nineteenth century, whereas the Krasiński collection was arranged in the early twentieth century respectively the 1950’s or 1960’s in the case of drawings by Norwid. This contribution describes the structure of mountings found in these collections, as well as the historical context in which they were created. It serves as a starting point to provide an outline of the history of conservation methods and preservation of prints’ and drawings’ collections in Poland.
An investigation of the stitching effect on single lap shear joints in laminated composites
Authors: Peiyan Wang , Xiaoliang Geng , Chen Zhao , Rongshuo Zhang 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
This paper aimed to investigate the stitching effect on the bond strength of single lap shear joints in carbon/epoxy composite laminates using experimental and simulation methods. Stitched and unstitched single lap shear joints were bonded using the EC-3448 epoxy adhesive and tested under different working environments, including room temperature/dry (RTD), elevated temperature/wet (ETW) and cold temperature/dry (CTD). The results showed that stitching improved the bond strength of the stitched single lap joints, with approximately 60% higher strength for stitched compared to unstitched lap joints under RTD and CTD environments and 10% higher strength under an ETW environment. The increase was smaller under ETW conditions because the adhesive recured under elevated temperature. Embedded interactions connected the lapping plates and the stitch line, and the maximum stress failure criterion was adopted for the stitch line. As the predicted failure modes are consistent with the experimental results, the progressive damage mode can be applied to simulate stitched composite structures.
