Published: March 2019

Detection and Identification of Ditylenchus dipsaci from Imported Garlic BulbsImportation rate of garlic (Allium sativum) increased significantly in Indonesia lately. This situation may lead to the introduction and spread of quarantine pests, one of them is bulbborne nematode Ditylenchus dipsaci. This research is aimed to detect and identify the presence of D. dipsaci on imported garlic bulb from China. Samples of garlic bulbs were taken from imported garlic through Tanjung Priok Sea Port, North Jakarta, within importation period from August to December 2017. Nematode extraction was performed by modified Baermann funnel method. Nematode identification was carried out based on the D. dipsaci key morphological characters and morphometry according to de Man formula. This nematode was successfully detected from 20% of garlic bulbs samples based on morphological characteristics, i.e. slender body shape, body length between 0.56 until 1 mm, well-defined stylet (10-13 mm in length), posterior valve between oesophagus and intestine is not overlapping, median bulb obvious with oval shape, and the tail was conoid with a pointed terminus. The findings of D. dipsaci is an important fact because these nematodes have the potential to cause damage to plants in the field.
Krzysztof Kieślowski’s film props in the triptych “Three Colours”
Authors: Otto Wojciech 
Published: March 2019

Krzysztof Kieślowski employed film properties in a creative way in his Three Colours (Trois couleurs, 1993–94) trilogy. They play various roles in Blue (Bleu, 1993), White (Blanc, 1993) and Red (Rogue, 1994): they make the presented world more probable, co-create images of heroes, build dramaturgy and convey symbolic content. Such a treatment of film props is shaped by the director’s film style and creates a specific cinematic atmosphere.
DEVELOPING WRITING STRATEGIES OF POOR LANGUAGE LEARNERS AT THE LEVEL OF JUNIOR-HIGH SCHOOL
Authors: Droździał-Szelest Krystyna , Domińska Mirosława Anna 
Published: March 2019

Although language learning strategy research has been going on for almost forty years and has provided both theorists and practitioners with an abundant body of knowledge on the subject, there are still areas that need further investigation. One such area is the use of strategies in language skills development, with the skill of writing being singled out as deserving special attention. It is suggested that in order to better understand the processes involved, we need more information concerning the development of the skill by learners, as well as more data revealing the effects of strategy based instruction, especially with reference to children and adolescents in different foreign language learning contexts. Hence, this article makes an attempt to contribute to the ongoing discussion by focusing on a special group of learners – poor language learners, at a risk of educational failure – who are learning a foreign language (English) in the context of junior high school. The article consists of two parts: its theoretical sections focus on some issues related to poor language learners, with emphasis on factors impacting their school problems in general and learning of the writing skill in particular. Then, based on the literature review, some research findings concerning writing strategies and the effects of strategic training are discussed. The second part presents and comments on the data obtained during the course of an informal study carried out in a junior high school within the framework of an educational project which was remedial in character.
Villains, Ghosts, and Roses, or, How to Speak with the Dead
Authors: Huber Sandra 
Published: March 2019

Abstract
If narratives that uphold secular humanism have led to an “unparalleled catastrophe” as Sylvia Wynter notes in an interview with Katherine McKittrick, then it is time to unwrite them. In this essay, I examine the dead as a category that exceeds metaphysical classifications of subject and object and provides alternate possibilities of communication and hybridity. To do so, I call on work by Claire Colebrook, Jacques Derrida, John Durham Peters, Eve Tuck, and Unica Zürn, among others, with the cultural work and words of Sylvia Wynter as a guide and galvanising force. Here, I repopulate the life/death seam with gorgons, witches, fates, and revenge stories. If ghosts are seen simply as other beings, albeit taboo ones like bacteria, or require alternate cultural narratives like villains, or exist both in the symbolic sphere of the mystical and the so-called natural world like roses, what kinds of methodologies can be opened? What do the dead have to say and how do we listen?
Łukasz Kamieński, Shooting Up: A Short History of Drugs and War.
Authors: Zmarzlinski Adam 
Published: March 2019

Abstract
From alcohol to LSD, Łukasz Kamieński takes readers on a unique 300-page journey through the history of warfare as seen through the prism of drug use. Beginning with the Greek city-states and ending with the contemporary consumption in the American Armed Forces, the text overflows with witty anecdotes, eloquent prose, and heart-wrenching realities found on drug-fueled battlefields. Drawing on literature, unclassified military and pharmaceutical studies, and private accounts of soldiers, Shooting Up is brilliant work that needs to find itself on every political science and history undergraduate reading list.
Dub in the Front Room: Migrant Aesthetics of the Sacred and the Secular
Authors: McMillan Michael 
Published: March 2019

Abstract
This article aims to explore, how the struggle over the sacred and the secular is enacted within the material culture of the front room as an index of the double consciousness that takes place in the black every day. The scared is often reduced to the purely religious, but unshackling it, and engaging with the sacred as a spectrum of spiritual experience that illuminates its dialogic relationship with the political, and therefore the secular. Reclaiming the sacred provides a critical praxis towards decolonising the legacy of coloniality in the context of postcolonial modernity. As a cultural institution of self-making, valorising the material culture of the front room as a space of black interiority resists the racist trope that we live on the street, and have no homes to go to, with families and values. This interiority has shaped, and been shaped by the cultural politics of postwar Caribbean migration, and reveals the rich complexity of “black domestic life” that the “generality of society” rarely understands. Connecting the spiritual with the political provides a psychic recuperation towards resisting and healing from trauma as a process in an ongoing structuring of colonial power, cultural imperialism, and racial violence. This article will draw on research in curating my installation-based exhibitions, The West Indian Front Room (2005-06) and Rockers, Soulheads and Lovers: Sound Systems Back in da Day (2015-16).
Sacred Languages of Pop: Rooted Practices in Globalized and Digital French Popular Music
Authors: Spanu Michael 
Published: March 2019

Abstract
Nowadays, popular music artists from a wide range of cultures perform in English alongside other local languages. This phenomenon questions the coexistence of different languages within local music practices. In this article, I argue that we cannot fully understand this issue without addressing the sacred dimension of language in popular music, which entails two aspects: 1) the transitory experience of an ideal that challenges intelligibility, and 2) the entanglement with social norms and institutions. Further to which, I compare Latin hegemony during the Middle Ages and the contemporary French popular music, where English and French coexist in a context marked by globalisation and ubiquitous digital technologies. The case of the Middle Ages shows that religious control over Latin led to a massive unintelligible experience of ritual singing, which reflected a strong class divide and created a demand for music rituals in vernacular languages. In the case of contemporary French popular music, asemantical practices of language are employed by artists in order to explore alternative, sacred dimensions of language that challenge nationhood.

Abstract

Background
Acute rejection (AR) is one of the most frequent complications after kidney transplantation (KT). Scientific evidence reports that some single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located in genes involved in the immune response and in the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of immunosuppressive drugs are associated with rejection in renal transplant patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate some SNPs located in six genes: interleukin-10 (IL-10), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette sub-family B member 1 (ABCB1), uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase family 1 member A9 (UGT1A9), inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase 1 (IMPDH1) and IMPDH2.

Methods
We enrolled cases with at least one AR after KT and two groups of controls: patients without any AR after KT and healthy blood donors. Genetic analysis on DNA was performed. The heterozygosity (HET) was determined and the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) test was performed for each SNP. The sample size was calculated using the QUANTO program and the genetic associations were calculated using the SAS program (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA).

Results
In our previous preliminary study (sample size was not reached for cases), the results showed that patients with the C allele in the SNP rs1045642 and the A allele in the SNP rs2032582 of the ABCB1 gene had more frequent AR. In contrast, with the achievement of sample size, the trend of the previous data was not confirmed.

Conclusions
Our study highlights a fundamental aspect of scientific research that is generally presumed, i.e. the sample size of groups enrolled for a scientific study. We believe that our study will make a significant contribution to the scientific community in the discussion of the importance of the analysis and the achievement of sample size to evaluate the associations between SNPs and the studied event.

AbstractBackgroundSpecific metabolic changes during physiological pregnancy are characterized by hyperlipidemia and increased oxidative stress. However, these specific changes raise the question of their pro-atherogenic potential during pregnancy and their influence on the risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) in women later in life, as well as complications during pregnancy. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in lipid indexes and parameters of lipid peroxidation in non-complicated pregnancy in order to estimate their course of change and potential relationship during non-complicated pregnancy.MethodsThe study included 43 healthy pregnant women and 38 non-pregnant healthy women, in appropriate ages, as the control group. Lipid parameters and oxidative stress parameters were monitored in a longitudinal study in the first, second and third trimesters, and before delivery during non-complicated pregnancy.ResultsResults have shown that lipid indexes rise during pregnancy. The values were significantly increased when compared to the first trimester in all lipid indices and in comparison with the control group. Thyobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH) were not changed significantly during physiological pregnancy, but LOOH showed a significantly higher value in the first trimester compared with the control group. Prooxidative-antioxidative balance (PAB) significantly increases as pregnancy progresses.ConclusionsWe observed the changes in lipids, lipid indexes and parameters that indicate oxidative modification of lipids in physiological pregnancy that may lead to an atherogenic, prooxidant state.

Abstract
Infertility patients are willing to travel abroad to receive the medical treatment of choice. A 2010 study reported that approximately 25,000 couples travel abroad annually seeking infertility treatment. The purpose of this review is to analyze the criteria and risks related to cross-border reproductive care (CBRC) from the perspective of the patients and explore the issues raised regarding the country of origin and the destination country. A computerized search was performed in PubMed employing respective keywords. The total number of published articles provided by our PubMed search was 1905. Criteria for selecting the destination country include: the economic status, legislation, quality of care and anonymity. Despite the fact that CBRC is becoming a familiar concept, it raises concerns for the practitioner and issues of a social and bioethical nature. Most of them stem from the fact that health care acquires a commercialization aspect. Medical tourism entails several risks, such as misconceptions regarding the destination country, and legal issues arising from differences in the judiciary systems. Larger studies evaluating all aspects of CBRC are imperative. Quality assurance, a consensus and a common platform of practice, along with a system of international governance based on human rights, are a necessity for CBRC patients.

Published: March 2019

Abstract
This article discusses the creation of a 3D archive and physical copies of paper reliefs (estamages). A matrix of the estampage is fabricated by the combined use of 3D scanning technology and additive technologies which can then be used for the documentation and conservation of the original estampage. In order to digitize the relief, an optical 3D scanner based on structured light was used and the processing of the 3D model is discussed in detail. Scanning data is uploaded into the microprocessor of a 3D laser printer using stereolithography technology which then creates a conservation matrix. The accuracy of relief reproduction is assessed by comparing its 3D model with 3D models of replicas obtained with the help of 3D printers. The experimental research showed that it is possible to create 3D archives and reproduction of reliefs. This approach is fundamentally new in the practice of museums and archives.
Nonlinear Model Predictive Control Strategy for Limit Management of Aero-Engines
Authors: Du Xian , Ma Yan-Hua , Sun Xi-Ming 
Published: March 2019

Abstract
A Min-Max structure combined with several linear limit controllers are utilized for conventional aero-engines safety control, which is complex and conservative, therefore a new nonlinear model predictive control strategy is proposed that owns the ability to manage time-varying input/output limits during acceleration/deceleration transient states of aero-engines. Penalty function items are constructed according to the characteristics of input/output limits, and are incorporated in the cost function of online receding horizon optimization for limit management of aero-engines. Considering the large computational burden of nonlinear component-level aero-engine model directly used as prediction model, a piecewise linear model is built to describe the steady-state and dynamic properties of aero-engines and its design process is explained in detail. Further, computational efforts are investigated as control horizon, prediction horizon are varied in the improved nonlinear predictive controller. Particularly, when penalty function items are activated, control performance and computational burden are examined, thus providing guidelines for key parameters tuning. Simulations show two clear results. One is that computational efforts become larger for bigger control horizon or prediction horizon, but it depends more on control horizon than prediction horizon. The other is that the proposed method can handle time-varying input/output limits effectively without resulting in a great increase of computational burden.
Differential Diffusion of Impurities in Isotopic Lithium Matrices
Authors: Lodding A. , Ott A. 
Published: March 2019

Abstract
The diffusion of 22Na and 195Au has been investigated in solid, isotopically pure 8Li and 7Li metal. The Na tracer has been found to diffuse by about 4 % faster in 8Li than in 7Li. For Au the corresponding difference was 4% at the melting point, but as much as about 15% at 2
3 Tm (°K). A formalism is given for the interpretation of diffusion experiments where the matrix isotope mass is varied. The present results for Na in Li can be plausibly explained in terms of the vacancy mechanism. For Au diffusion in Li, the interpretation appears incompatible with a simple vacancy mechanism, and the anomalous departure from the inverse root mass relationship can be connected with recently detected quantum effects in 6Li - 7Li mutual diffusion
A DIGITAL CERTIFICATION MANAGEMENT MECHANISMS AND SECURITY ROUTING PROTOCOL IN MOBILE AD HOC NETWORK
Authors: Ngoc Luong Thai , Tu Vo Thanh 
Published: March 2019

Routing services in Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) are the goal of denial of service (DoS) attack forms, such as: Blackhole, Sinkhole, Grayhole, Wormhole, Flooding and Whirlwind. There are some related researches to improve of security performance of routing services, such as H(AODV), OTP_AODV, SAODV and ARAN. They require hypothetical conditions that public key infrastructure (PKI) is available. TAMAN routing protocol supported a digital certificate verification service adaptively and quickly to the dynamic topology of the network without relying on any certification authorities (CA). However, node's digital certificate is installed manually and TAMAN has not digital certificate provision and revocation mechanisms. Hence, it is restricted to operate on MANET where nodes move randomly. In this article, we propose a Digital Certification Management Mechanisms (DCMM) based on X.509 standard which supports storing digital certificate, provision and revocation without any PKI. We have implemented DCMM on TAMAN protocol and simulated with NS2 using static and mobility scenarios with speed 30m/s. Simulation results show that digital certificates providing process completely after 70 seconds for 100 member nodes using static scenario and 270 seconds using mobility scenario, and TAMAN performance using DCMM is reduced slightly in terms of packet delivery ratio, end-to-end delay and routing load.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the value of neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) together with the demographic characteristics in predicting liver insufficiency or transplantation need following mushroom poisoning. Materials and Methods: The patients were evaluated in terms of various parameters including gender, age, the month of admission, symptoms on emergency service admission, vital findings, laboratory findings, poisoning severity score (PSS) according to initial symptoms, and onset time of symptoms. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether the liver function tests were deteriorated or not. NLR was assessed according to PSS in patients with and without acute liver failure.Results: A total of 84 patients, aged 16-85 years, were included in the study. Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio was 10.82±8.7 in patients with impaired liver function tests and statistically significant compared to the patients with normal liver function tests (5.66±4.71). NLR was statistically significantly higher in patients who developed acute liver failure and in those with high poisoning severity score. The cut-off value was founded as 9.65.Conclusion: NLR may be a useful predictor of liver failure or transplantation need, which develops as a result of mushroom poisoning.
