Abstract.
Hyperhomocysteinemia, which results from renal impairment, may promote arteriosclerosis and glomerulosclerosis. The combined effect of renal failure and a common mutation (C677T) in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene that leads to serum homocysteine elevations in dialysis patients was investigated. Genotypes were determined at this locus in 545 dialysis patients and 676 healthy subjects, and serum concentrations of total homocysteine and folate were measured in a subgroup of 464 patients. Multiple regression analysis showed that the TT genotype and low serum folate concentration were independent positive predictors of the serum total homocysteine concentration. The negative slope of a regression line relating homocysteine and folate concentrations was significantly steeper for patients with the TT genotype than for other genotypes. Patients with the TT genotype were significantly younger at the time of the study (54.8 ± 12.9 versus 59.6 ± 12.3 yr; P < 0.0001) and at initiation of dialysis (46.6 ± 16.2 versus 51.2 ± 15.9 yr; P < 0.02) than those with other genotypes. In patients who were older at the time of the study or at initiation of dialysis, the prevalence of the TT genotype was lower than in control subjects. In the middle quartiles (37.1 to 63.0 yr) for age at the start of dialysis, the prevalence of the TT genotype was lower in patients with a longer duration of dialysis. In this cross-sectional study, genotype and serum total homocysteine concentration were not independent risk factors for vascular disease in dialysis patients. These results indicate that the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase mutation is a significant independent predictor for serum total homocysteine concentration.

Abstract.
Peritoneal transport characteristics in children on peritoneal dialysis (PD) has been reported to be different compared to adults. However, various test methods can influence this difference. Thirty-one standard peritoneal permeability analyses (SPA) were performed in 18 PD children with a median (range) age of 9.8 yr (2 to 19) and a median duration of PD of 2.6 yr (0.19 to 6.8). The median mass transfer area coefficient (MTAC) for creatinine was 9.6 ml/min per 1.73 m2 (4.4 to 18.0), and for urea 17.3 ml/min per 1.73 m2 (12.2 to 22.8). The median dialysate to plasma creatinine ratio (D/P
Cr) was 0.69 (0.44 to 0.92), the glucose absorption 59% (23 to 75), and the D/D
0 for glucose 0.38 (0.23 to 0.62). The median clearance of β2-microglobulin was 923 μl/min per 1.73 m2 (366 to 1828), of albumin 103 μl/min per 1.73 m2 (55 to 211), of IgG 48 μl/min per 1.73 m2 (20 to 105), and of α2-macroglobulin 12 μl/min per 1.73 m2 (5 to 49). No correlation was found between these results and age or PD time. The restriction coefficient for macromolecules indeed increased with duration of PD treatment (r = 0.38, P = 0.03). The median transcapillary ultrafiltration rate was 1.2 ml/min per 1.73 m2 (-0.01 to 2.8), the net ultrafiltration rate 0.2 ml/min per 1.73 m2 (-1.97 to 1.82), and the effective lymphatic absorption rate 1.04 ml/min per 1.73 m2 (-0.06 to 2.91). When corrected for body surface area, no differences were found in peritoneal fluid and solute transport characteristics between children and adults. No effect of time on PD on the transport parameters was found in a cross-sectional analysis, except for an increase of the restriction coefficient to macromolecules. This finding is similar to observations in adults. Therefore, the present study showed no evidence for the common belief that the peritoneal membrane in children is different from that in adult patients.

La Gobernanza Inteligente o participación ciudadana en el gobierno de las ciudades, es una de las dimensiones clave para considerar una ciudad como inteligente, y los portales de Gobierno En Línea han sido un medio para que esa participación se dé; sin embargo, dicha colaboración requiere de otro factor importante como lo es, la Gente Inteligente, representada en el capital social y humano existente en la ciudad o el tejido social. En esta investigación, se propone un modelo estadístico de regresión logística para la creación de dicho tejido social, con base en las competencias ciudadanas y digitales desarrolladas en las comunidades, mediante estrategias de aprendizaje permanente. El método científico soporta esta propuesta, desde la identificación del problema, el planteamiento de la solución a través del uso del modelo, la recolección de datos teniendo como muestra poblacional una comunidad de personas con discapacidad cognitiva de la Fundación FANDIC de la ciudad de Bucaramanga, Colombia y la interpretación de los resultados que sugieren la existencia de una ecuación para predecir la probabilidad de que un individuo, después de participar en un programa educativo diseñado de forma adaptativa desde la filosofía del aprendizaje permanente, forme parte de un tejido social competente.

Authors: Vásquez Truisi Martha Lucía , Campos Quintero Liliana 
Published: May 2021

Introducción: el proceso de parto representa una de las experiencias más importantes para la mujer, puede ser una de las mejores vivencias o el evento más traumático y doloroso que podría tener durante la vida; implica una experiencia psicosocial profunda que pone a prueba su feminidad y competencias personales. Objetivo: describir la percepción de la gestante acerca del cuidado brindado por el profesional en enfermería durante el trabajo de parto en un hospital de nivel III-IV de la ciudad de Neiva, Colombia desde las cinco dimensiones propuestas en la teoría de los cuidados de Kristen Swanson. Métodos: se utilizó la fenomenología interpretativa, y como técnica de recolección de datos la entrevista en profundidad. La muestra se determinó por saturación de la información. Se entrevistaron seis mujeres que tuvieron trabajo de parto, a cada una se le realizaron tres entrevistas, transcritas por las investigadoras. Resultados: se identificaron cinco categorías: 1) El acompañamiento marca la diferencia en el cuidado de enfermería; 2) Lo que necesita la parturienta: confianza, seguridad y tranquilidad; 3) Encontrar un ángel; 4) La enfermera me animaba para seguir adelante; 5) El conocimiento de la enfermera produce seguridad en la gestante. Fue posible determinar que cuando la gestante se sintió acompañada, estableció empatía con la enfermera y, logró sentir confianza, tranquilidad y seguridad. Esto permitió tener una relación de reciprocidad. Además las participantes destacaron que la enfermera se esforzó para otorgar un cuidado más cercano y centrado en la persona. Conclusiones: el cuidado que brinda la enfermera significa algo más que intervenciones asistenciales competentes; implica crear empatía, generar confianza, tranquilidad, seguridad, todo lo cual es propiciado por el acompañamiento que se da a la gestante.
Fourth Industrial Revolution and digital competences of teachers

Published: May 2021

The new era of the 4IR requires changes in teachers’ initial education and in their professional advancement. Serbia is a developing country whose institutions of education are technologically underdeveloped and whose expansion in the field of digitalization is still insufficient to be on par with the developed western countries. The authors’ research goal was to determine whether potential improvement in teachers’ digital competences has occurred. The general hypothesis postulated implied a low level of the use of digital tools in schools on the territory of Serbia. The descriptive method and scaling technique were used. The research results show that science and technology teachers apply digital tools while teaching more frequently than the teachers of social sciences and humanities. The research implies that a strategic approach to Serbian teachers’ digital education is necessary even during their undergraduate studies by introducing digital technology courses and subjects in the conventional academic curricula.

Authors: Abu-Rumman Ayman 
Published: May 2021

Abstract Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of transformational leadership on the cultivation of human capital in an academic setting from the perspective of university employees Design/methodology/approach – Quantitative data was collected from a range of staff working within three universities located in Jordan using an online questionnaire survey. The focus was on identifying which factors of transformational leadership were perceived as having the greatest potential contribution towards developing human capital and if there was a consensus amongst staff about these factors Results – 131 staff members submitted a completed questionnaire giving a response rate of 93%. Respondents generally had a good understanding of the concepts of human capital and transformational leadership, but the way in which transformational leadership was perceived to impact on human capital differed. Conclusion – Overall, the findings from the survey, consistent with other similar studies, confirmed that there was a correlation between transformational leadership and human capital in the context of academia from the perspective of staff. Research limitations/implications – The study confirms the need for leaders in academia to consider the leadership approach that is adopted to ensure that human capital, which is one of its main assets, is supported and developed appropriately Practical implications – The paper describes implications for leaders in higher education, as well as more broadly for educators who are attempting to develop human capital in their organisations Originality/value – This paper expands upon a developing field in leadership in higher education

Published: May 2021

The devastating earthquake Mw 7.4 hit Palu City, Central Sulawesi on September 28th, 2018, at 17:02:44 WIB. A high tsunami followed it. More than 2000 people died as a result of the earthquake and tsunami disaster. The latest evidence shows that the earthquake was categorized as a rare super shear earthquake. The earthquake shaking that hit Palu City is relatively large. Acceleration data are not available at the study site due to the lack of instrumentation in the area. The Authors present a simulation of peak ground acceleration (PGA) and pseudo-spectral acceleration (PSA) due to the earthquake in three locations Tatura Mall, Roa-Roa Hotel, and Antapura Hospital. PGA describes the maximum acceleration on the ground, while pseudo-spectral acceleration describes the acceleration of earthquake shaking from buildings with various floor numbers. Simulation of PGA and PSA to the three sites used three different Ground Motion Prediction Equation (GMPE) functions, BSSA14, CB14, and CY14, with the weighting of each Next Generation Attenuation (NGA) GMPE functions. The results of PGA simulation is about 0.22-0.23 g and show that in the three study site, it is more vulnerable to spectral acceleration period T=0.3 s or building with three floors or about 1-15 floors. These correlate with the level of damage caused by earthquakes which is more impact to relatively higher buildings.

Authors: Salama Fatma 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
A labeling of edges and vertices of a simple graph 𝐺(𝑉,𝐸) by a mapping Ŧ:𝑉(𝐺) ∪ 𝐸(𝐺)→{ 1,2,3,…,Ћ} provided that any two pair of edges have distinct weights is called an edge irregular total Ћ-labeling. If Ћ is minimum and 𝐺 admits an edge irregular total Ћ -labelling, then Ћ is called the total edge irregularity strength (TEIS) and denoted by 𝑡𝑒𝑠(𝐺). In this paper, the definitions of the heptagonal snake graph HPSn ,the double heptagonal snake graph 𝐷(HPSn) and an 𝑙−multiple heptagonal snake graph 𝐿(HPSn) have been introduced. The exact value of TEISs for the new family has also been investigated.
Comparison of the Shear bonding Strength of ION-Z GIC to a Resin Composite Using Different Adhesive Systems: RCT Study
Authors: Lala Sana , Lazkani Thuraya 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Background:In restorative dentistry we usually use Sandwich Technique for posterior restorations where GIC is placed below and a resin composite is placed over it. The bonding strength between these two materials are low. We are looking for the best adhesive system to put it in between. We think that the self-etching bond will give the best bonding strength between them whereas total etch will give lower bonding strength than self-etching system. Methods:ION-Z GIC was bonded to resin composite by using two different bonding agents. The thirty specimens used were prepared by using acrylic blocks with holes in each hole to retain the ION-Z GIC. The specimens were randomly divided into three groups:Group I: Control group.Group II: Total-etch adhesive was applied and cured over ION-Z GIC.Group III: Self-etch adhesive was applied and cured.The composite resin placed over the ION-Z GIC and cured. The shear bond strength was measured by shearing of the bonded specimens on Universal Testing Machine (Model 114) using speed of 0.1mm / minute. The reading was tabulated and subjected to statistical analysis using ANOVA and Tukey's test.Results:The test showed statistically significant difference between Group III and Group I and between Group III and Group II. Group III had the highest shear bonding strength.Conclusion:Self-etch adhesive agent produces have better shear bond strength to ION-Z than total-etch adhesive and to the group without any bonding agent.
Distortion of a poly-crystalline Al bar in a vice fixture: Molecular dynamics analysis of grain movement and rotation
Authors: Vardanyan Vardan Hoviki , Linke Barbara S , Urbassek Herbert M 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
The deformation of a nano-sized polycrystalline Al bar under the action of vice plates is studied using molec- ular dynamics simulation. Two grain sizes are considered; deformation in the fine-grained sample is mainly caused by grain-boundary processes (sliding and rotation), while dislocation plasticity dominates in the coarse- grained sample. We show that the sample distortion is reflected by the center-of-mass motion of the grains. Grain rotation is responsible for surface roughening after the loading process. While the plastic deformation is caused by the loading process, grain rearrangements under load release also contribute considerably to the final sample distortion.
