Project-based learning: A practical approach to implementing Memsource in the classroom
Authors: Herget Katrin 
Published: May 2020

Information technology has long become an integral part of today’s professional reality and given rise to new job profiles, in response to the changing requirements in many industries. Hence, the knowledge of languages for specific purposes as well as the acquisition of practical competences through project-based learning (PBL) have gained growing significance. Specialized communication skills, coupled with a multilingual professional competence, are a means to address the demands of our today's complex reality. Institutions of higher education more and more feel the urge to prepare their students to new professional challenges and a wide range of employment opportunities. This paper presents a PBL approach by implementing the Computer Aided Translation Tool Memsource in foreign language classes of the Master’s course “Languages and Business Relations” at the University of Aveiro. This innovative approach seeks to provide students with a multidisciplinary competence, increase their linguistic proficiency and actively involve them in the decision-making and problem-solving process.

Published: May 2020

In several training institutions in sub-Saharan Africa today, the competency-based approach to teaching (CBA) has been adopted at the secondary school level. In Cameroon, based on our experience in teaching, we have found that this approach does not suit all categories of learners, generally the youngest. With the advent of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), learners spend most of their time on ICT’s gadgets (mobile phone, tablet, etc ...). In this paper, we propose a complement to the CBA approach through pedagogic differentiation. This differentiation takes into account the learner's environment and adds a playful and captivating aspect to the techno-pedagogic tools to be made available to them through the gadgets they use. We call this approach contextual immersion. It starts from real life situation familiar to the learner. The tool made available to the learner, which integrates this approach, guides him/her progressively towards the solution to the problem posed and a generalization that summarizes the course that will be transmitted.

Authors: Almansa Moreno José Manuel 
Published: June 2020

PRUEBA - A mediados del siglo XX se inicia la revalorización de los centros históricos en Es- paña, especialmente de aquellas ciudades vinculadas con la historia de nuestro país, buscando desarrollar su potencial turístico como pieza clave para mejorar la economía nacional y ofrecer una imagen de modernidad en el extranjero.En esa labor tiene especial importancia la Sección de Ordenación de Ciudades de Interés Artístico Nacional, organismo dependiente de la Dirección General de Arquitectura, cuyos arquitectos son los encargados de diseñar proyectos de mejora y embellecimiento urbano, los cuales generalmente se complementaban con otras intervenciones acometidas en los edificios monumentales por otras instituciones (como, por ejemplo, la Dirección General de Bellas Artes o los cabildos municipales).A través de este estudio pretendemos analizar las intervenciones acometidas en la ciudad de Jaén durante la década de los 60 y 70, proyectos urbanísticos llevados a cabo si- guiendo otros ejemplos en la provincia como las reformas acometidas en Úbeda y Baeza una década antes, y que pretendían embellecer espacios tan emblemáticos como la Plaza de Santa María y el histórico barrio de la Magdalena.
In the middle of the 20th. century began the revaluation of the historical centers in Spain, especially those cities linked to the history of the country, seeking to develop their tourist potential as a key piece to improve the national economy and to offer a modern image abroad.
In this work it has special function the Section of Ordination of Cities of National Artistic Interest, organism dependent of the Directorate General of Architecture, whose architects are in charge of designing projects of improvement and urban beautification, which were generally complemented by other interventions in monumental buildings by other institutions (such as the Directorate General of Fine Arts).
Through this study we intend to analyze the interventions undertaken in the city of Jaén during the decades of the ' 60s and ' 70s, urban projects carried out following other examples in the province as the reforms undertaken in Úbeda and Baeza a decade before, and which sought to beautify so emblematic as the Square of St. Mary and the historic district of the Magdalene.
Los recursos patrimoniales en el turismo actual. El caso del centro histórico de Yecla (Murcia)
Authors: Soriano Hernández Alicia 
Published: June 2020

La convivencia entre el pasado artístico y cultural de la ciudad de Yecla (Murcia) con los usos actuales de sus elementos patrimoniales constituye el objetivo fundamental de este trabajo. El llamado turismo cultural, en todas sus modalidades, se ha convertido en un recurso económico fundamental para las administraciones locales, por ello proponemos una ruta turística basada en el conocimiento del origen y evolución de la historia y el arte de la ciudad mediante el uso de los recursos patrimoniales que conserva, dotándolos de un discurso ameno pero basado en el rigor de las investigaciones realizadas. Esta ruta se incorporará a la oferta cultural de Yecla aportando respuestas a las necesidades de los diferentes usuarios turísticos locales y foráneos, e introduce el contexto urbanístico como elemento vertebrador. En definitiva, proporcionar un instrumento que además de potenciar el valor de importantes bienes ya reconocidos del patrimonio yeclano permita dar a conocer nuevos elementos de gran valor hasta ahora olvidados y que se encuentran en un lamentable estado de conservación.
The coexistence between artistic and cultural past of the city of Yecla (Murcia) with the contemporary usage of its patrimonial elemets is the fundamental objetive of this work. The so called cultural tourism, in all its forms, has now become a funamental economic resource for local administration. For that reason we suggest a touristic route based on the knowledge of the origin and evolution of the history and art of the city througt the use of the patrimonial resources that the city holds, ia a pleasant way but still based on the precision of the investigations done.
This route will be incorporated to the cultural offer of Yecla adding offer to the demands of the diferent local and foreing touristic targets. It also introduces the urban context as main backbone. Finally, this route will provide a tool that will allow to know new elements of the great value so far forgotten and left in an unfortunate preservation condition on top of enhancing the value of important properties already well recognised in the heritage of Yecla.

Objective
This study examined the severity of mobile phone addiction and its relationship with quality of life (QOL) in Chinese university students.

Methods
A total of 2,312 university students from Macao, Hong Kong and mainland China participated in this cross-sectional study. The Mobile Phone Addiction Scale (MPAS), and the World Health Organization Quality of Life-Brief version (WHOQOL-BREF) rating instruments were used to assess the severity of mobile phone addiction and QOL, respectively.

Results
Compared to students in mainland China, those in Macao and Hong Kong were more likely to have excessive mobile phone use. Multiple linear regression revealed that high academic pressure and poor academic performance were positively associated, while male gender, greater interest in academic major and long sleep duration were negatively associated with the severity of mobile phone addiction. Students addicted to mobile phone use had significantly lower scores across all QOL domains.

Conclusion
Due to the adverse impact of excessive mobile phone use on QOL, public education and effective preventive measures should be developed for Chinese university students.

Authors: Austin-McClellan Lauren E. , Lisi Anthony J. 
Published: May 2020

Objective
The purpose of this article is to present an overview of the key medical and surgical specialties most likely relevant to chiropractic practice in the United States. Understanding the similarities and differences in the training and typical practices of these medical providers may enhance a chiropractor's likelihood to collaborate and increase participation in team-based care.

Methods
This was a descriptive analysis to develop preliminary content on US medical physician specialties. Selection was informed by the authors' clinical experience with medical collaboration, along with results of previously published work on medical specialties most commonly reported to be involved in referral patterns with US chiropractors. Data from the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education and individual specialty boards were synthesized through an iterative process, and supplemented by qualitative input from subject matter experts. Data were entered into tabular format for review and analysis.

Results
We propose that the medical and surgical specialties most relevant to typical US chiropractic practice are internal medicine, family medicine, emergency medicine, physical medicine and rehabilitation, neurology, pain medicine, rheumatology, radiology, orthopedic surgery, and neurological surgery. There is overlap in scope of conditions and diagnostic and therapeutic tools utilized by various medical specialties.

Conclusion
This work describes 8 medical and 2 surgical specialties proposed to be most relevant to general chiropractic practice in the United States. The results may have relevance to interprofessional education and collaboration.

Heavy metals pose a threat to human health and their presence in specific matrices is anthropogenic. The work focuses on the penetration of the food chain through the ingestion of mollusk proteins. This study evaluated the composition of heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Mn, Pb and Zn) in three species of mollusks (Limicolaria flammea, Viviparus contectus, Egeria radiata) from Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, Nigeria and the health risk associated with their consumption. Heavy metals concentration was determined by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). Health risk associated with consumption of the samples were assessed by Estimated Daily Intake (EDI), target Hazard Quotient (THQ) and Carcinogenic Risk (CR). EDI, THQ and CR were done by calculation following standards. Heavy metals concentration range in the samples were: Cd (0.289±0.00 mg/kg - 0.667±0.00 mg/kg), Mn (0.816±0.00 mg/kg - 0.934±0.00 mg/kg), Pb (0.082±0.00 mg/kg - 0.092±0.00 mg/kg) and Zn (4.114±0.00 mg/kg - 8.534±0.00 mg/kg); Cr was not detected in neither of the samples. EDI of heavy metals through consumption of these samples were within acceptable limits for all heavy metals detected. THQ ranges were as follows: Cd (0.4949-1.1420), Mn (0.000017-0.000019), Pb (0.0401 - 0.0450) and Zn (0.0016 - 0.0066). THQ values indicate that there is no human risk concern of risk for humans except Cd (in E. radiata). CR values for Cd were as follows: L. flammea (3.8×10-3), E. radiata (4.34×10-4) and V. contectus (1.88×10-4). CR values were within acceptable limits with the exception of Cd in L. flammea. The present study shows that the samples contained detectable levels of heavy metals however their consumption do not pose any form of health risk with the except for Cd in L. flammea, hence the carcinogenic role of L. flammea stands out for its high content of Cd.

Published: May 2020

The nutrient contents of wheat-margarine used in the preparation of cakes in Nigeria is low with high fat leading consumers to several nutritional and health challenges such as overweight, obesity and cardiovascular diseases. This research was aimed at determining physicochemical and sensory properties of wheat-margarine- avocado cake blends. Cake blends of margarine and avocado were prepared in the proportions of 100:0, 80:20, 60:40, 40:60, 20:80 and 0:100. The chemical composition and physical properties of the cakes were determined using standard methods. The cakes were assessed for their sensory characteristics using 9 point hedonic scale. The physical properties of wheat, margarine and avocado cake blends showed that the replacement of margarine with avocado fruit pulp in cake production increased the cake weight with no increase in volume and height of the cakes. The proximate composition of the cakes showed that 100% wheat/avocado cake contained higher moisture (11.65±0.00), crude protein (16.85±0.00), crude fiber (2.10±0.09), ash (2.52±0.0) and carbohydrates (57.86±0.78) contents than 100% wheat/margarine which were 6.99, 12.33, 1.44, 2.10 and 54.62 respectively. However, the fat content of 100% wheat/margarine cake (29.51±0.00) was rather higher than that of the wheat/avocado cake (20.67±0.00). The mineral contents of the cakes significantly increased with increase in avocado fruit pulp. Colour, aroma, taste, texture and general acceptability decreased with the addition of avocado but were all accepted by the panelists.
It was concluded that substitution of margarine with avocado fruit pulp in cake production significantly increased the cake weight, the moisture, protein, fibre, ash, carbohydrate, mineral elements and a decrease in fat content as well as a mean scores of sensory attributes.
Compost Derived from Sugar Cane Processing Waste Better Improves Baillonella toxisperma P. Growth in Nkoteng-Cameroon Locality

Published: May 2020

Aims: Baillonella toxisperma P. (moabi) is a woody which belongs to Sapotaceae family. It is endemic to the forests of Congo Basin, and therefore to Cameroonian forests. In Cameroon, B. toxiperma undergoes anthropogenic pressure which may lead to its complete disappearance. In this respect, the establishment of an appropriate technical route for regeneration of this species, which becomes rare because of overexploitation, is a necessity. This study aimed to improve the regeneration of moabi while contributing to sustainable agriculture.
Study Design: A random device design with 5 treatments (control, compost derived sugar cane processing waste, bagasse, molasses and bagasse-molasses mixture) was used.
Place and Duration of Study: Under Bimodal Forest climate in the Central Cameroon region, between September, 2018 and April 2019.
Methodology: The breaking of moabi seeds dormancy, physico-chemical properties of soil and produced compost, and growth parameters (plant height, foliar production, diameter of stem, and dry biomass of plant) were evaluated to determine the development of the seedlings.
Results: Moabi seeds stored cold at 4°C for 48 hours before sowing germinated better. Compost significantly (p˂0.001) increased moabi plants growth compared to bagasse, molasses, bagasse-molasses mixture. Dry biomass of treated moabi plants by compost, bagasse, bagasse-molasses mixture and molasses were 1.80; 1.13; 1.78; 1.40 fold greater than those of unfertilized plants respectively.
Conclusion: The use of sugar cane compounds works as a double benefit because in addition to using compounds previously discarded, we are adding potent fertilizers that act strongly on moabi growth.
Conexões entre gestão social e gestão pública, alternativa para a qualificação da oferta de políticas públicas?
Authors: Corezola Fernanda Costa 
Published: June 2020

Este trabalho descreve algumas experiências de política pública nas quais se pode observar se a gestão social foi desenvolvida. Essas experiências são associadas às diferentes macroetapas do ciclo de gestão pública no governo do Rio Grande do Sul, em alguns segmentos de política pública, no período 2011-2014. O artigo buscou identificar interfaces entre a gestão pública e a gestão social e apontar para possíveis desdobramentos dessas interfaces em processos de planejamento, execução, monitoramento e avaliação de políticas públicas.
A gestão pública é, aqui, tratada como a gestão da “coisa pública”, como os atos de governo no âmbito do Estado para realizar as políticas públicas legal e institucionalmente estabelecidas desde a formulação da agenda de políticas até sua implementação e avaliação. Gestão social é entendida “como a gestão da coisa pública, não necessariamente governamental, assim como dos interesses sociais, compartilhando o poder de decisão entre o Estado e a sociedade civil” (COREZOLA, OLIVEIRA, ALMEIDA, 2010, p.88). Para que as conexões entre a gestão pública e a gestão social se realizem, tanto quanto o desenvolvimento de capacidades dos agentes estatais, sociais e econômicos que constroem as relações entre sociedade e o Estado, são necessários instrumentos de governança social.
A partir das experiências empíricas observadas em 2014, o artigo apresenta algumas proposições que afirmam a necessária relação entre gestão social e gestão pública com vistas ao aumento da transparência, do controle e da participação social. Estes processos, por sua vez, são tratados como meios potencializadores de resultados mais efetivos à sociedade, em termos de melhor qualidade das entregas de políticas sejam obras sejam serviços públicos.
The effect of surgical trauma on circulating free DNA levels in cancer patients—implications for studies of circulating tumor DNA

Detection of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) post‐treatment is an emerging marker of residual disease. ctDNA constitutes only a minor fraction of the cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) circulating in cancer patients, complicating ctDNA detection. This is exacerbated by trauma‐induced cfDNA. To guide optimal blood sample timing, we investigated the duration and magnitude of surgical trauma‐induced cfDNA in patients with colorectal or bladder cancer. DNA levels were quantified in paired plasma samples collected before and up to 6 weeks after surgery from 436 patients with colorectal cancer and 47 patients with muscle‐invasive bladder cancer. To assess whether trauma‐induced cfDNA fragments are longer than ordinary cfDNA fragments, the concentration of short (< 1 kb) and long (> 1 kb) fragments was determined for 91 patients. Previously reported ctDNA data from 91 patients with colorectal cancer and 47 patients with bladder cancer were used to assess how trauma‐induced DNA affects ctDNA detection. The total cfDNA level increased postoperatively—both in patients with colorectal cancer (mean threefold) and bladder cancer (mean eightfold). The DNA levels were significantly increased up to 4 weeks after surgery in both patient cohorts (P = 0.0005 and P ≤ 0.0001). The concentration of short, but not long, cfDNA fragments increased postoperatively. Of 25 patients with radiological relapse, eight were ctDNA‐positive and 17 were ctDNA‐negative in the period with trauma‐induced DNA. Analysis of longitudinal samples revealed that five of the negative patients became positive shortly after the release of trauma‐induced cfDNA had ceased. In conclusion, surgery was associated with elevated cfDNA levels, persisting up to 4 weeks, which may have masked ctDNA in relapse patients. Trauma‐induced cfDNA was of similar size to ordinary cfDNA. To mitigate the impact of trauma‐induced cfDNA on ctDNA detection, it is recommended that a second blood sample collected after week 4 is analyzed for patients initially ctDNA negative.
