APPLYING THE LOYAL OPPOSITION TRADITION TO FOREIGN POLICY: A U.S.-UKRAINE CASE STUDY (PART II)
Authors: WINTERS Isaiah 
Published: April 2019

This two-part research project analyzes U.S. foreign policy during the Ukraine Crisis from the viewpoint of loyalty to democracy. By applying the standards expected of loyal opposition parties to the U.S., the foreign policy approach taken is shown to have been disloyal to Ukraine’s fragile democracy, as it contributed to an undemocratic transition of power in the form of a coup d'état. Ultimately, the failure of the U.S. to remain loyal to Ukraine’s democratic process (the way a loyal opposition state would have) is explained by the Obama administration’s liberal imperialist approach to foreign policy, whose first loyalty was to U.S. interests, not Ukrainian political sovereignty.

Authors: Granum Liana K. , Bush William W. , Williams D. Colette , Stecker Mark M. , Weaver Christine E. , Werre Stephen R. 
Published: April 2019

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To determine the prevalence of electrographic seizure (ES) and electrographic status epilepticus (ESE) in dogs and cats that underwent electroencephalography (EEG) because of suspected seizure activity and to characterize the clinical characteristics, risk factors, and in-hospital mortality rates for dogs and cats with ES or ESE.

DESIGN
Retrospective case series.

ANIMALS
89 dogs and 15 cats.

PROCEDURES
Medical records of dogs and cats that underwent EEG at a veterinary neurology service between May 2009 and April 2015 were reviewed. Electrographic seizure was defined as ictal discharges that evolved in frequency, duration, or morphology and lasted at least 10 seconds, and ESE was defined as ES that lasted ≥ 10 minutes. Patient signalment and history, physical and neurologic examination findings, diagnostic test results, and outcome were compared between patients with and without ES or ESE.

RESULTS
Among the 104 patients, ES and ESE were diagnosed in 21 (20%) and 12 (12%), respectively. Seventeen (81%) patients with ES had no or only subtle signs of seizure activity. The in-hospital mortality rate was 48% and 50% for patients with ES and ESE, respectively, compared with 19% for patients without ES or ESE. Risk factors for ES and ESE included young age, overt seizure activity within 8 hours before EEG, and history of cluster seizures.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL REVELANCE
Results indicated that ES and ESE were fairly common in dogs and cats with suspected seizure activity and affected patients often had only subtle clinical signs. Therefore, EEG is necessary to detect patients with ES and ESE.
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in environmental biology: a review
Authors: Nowak Maciej M. , Dziób Katarzyna , Bogawski Paweł 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
Acquiring information about the environment is a key step during each study in the field of environmental biology at different levels, from an individual species to community and biome. However, obtaining information about the environment is frequently difficult because of, for example, the phenological timing, spatial distribution of a species or limited accessibility of a particular area for the field survey. Moreover, remote sensing technology, which enables the observation of the Earth’s surface and is currently very common in environmental research, has many limitations such as insufficient spatial, spectral and temporal resolution and a high cost of data acquisition. Since the 1990s, researchers have been exploring the potential of different types of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for monitoring Earth’s surface. The present study reviews recent scientific literature dealing with the use of UAV in environmental biology. Amongst numerous papers, short communications and conference abstracts, we selected 110 original studies of how UAVs can be used in environmental biology and which organisms can be studied in this manner. Most of these studies concerned the use of UAV to measure the vegetation parameters such as crown height, volume, number of individuals (14 studies) and quantification of the spatio-temporal dynamics of vegetation changes (12 studies). UAVs were also frequently applied to count birds and mammals, especially those living in the water. Generally, the analytical part of the present study was divided into following sections: (1) detecting, assessing and predicting threats on vegetation, (2) measuring the biophysical parameters of vegetation, (3) quantifying the dynamics of changes in plants and habitats and (4) population and behaviour studies of animals. At the end, we also synthesised all the information showing, amongst others, the advances in environmental biology because of UAV application. Considering that 33% of studies found and included in this review were published in 2017 and 2018, it is expected that the number and variety of applications of UAVs in environmental biology will increase in the future.

Abstract
1. A survey of eight local earthen hand-dug ponds located within the freshwater swamps of a Niger Delta area (southern Nigeria) was conducted over a period of 3 months. A total of 4,313 fishes representing 19 species from 12 families were recorded.
2. The most abundant species was Xenomystus nigri (905 individuals), whereas the least common was Protopterus annectens (13). Cichlidae and Clariidae counted three species each, whereas Anabantidae, Hepsetidae, Mochokidae, Protopteridae, Phractolaemidae, Malapteruridae and Gymnarchidae were represented by a single species each.
3. A lotic species, Synodontis sp., was recorded possibly as a result of the episodic flood of 2012.
4. The Engenni swamps harbour a moderately diverse ichthyofauna. Regulations should be put in place to further enhance the fisheries potential of these local ponds.
Efficiency of traps in collecting selected Diptera families according to the used bait: comparison of baits and mixtures in a field experiment
Authors: Manko Peter , Demková Lenka , Kohútová Martina , Oboňa Jozef 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
Traps made from PET bottles were used to assess the efficiency of four baits in terms of the number of individuals for selected Diptera families collecting in Eastern Slovak gardens in summer and autumn. Bait used in traps significantly affected the taxonomical composition of the samples obtained. Moreover, significant differences in bait efficiencies and temporal shift in bait efficiencies were confirmed for the Diptera order and for selected dipteran families. The most effective bait for baited-trap Diptera sampling was beer, followed by wine, meat, and syrup from the summer sampling season. In the autumn sampling season, the wine was most effective, followed by beer, syrup, and meat. For the family Scatopsidae wine, and for the family Platystomatidae, meat were the most effective baits. Drosophilidae were most attracted to beer in summer and to wine bait in autumn.
Analysis of thin-walled beams with variable monosymmetric cross section by means of Legendre polynomials
Authors: Szybiński Józef , Ruta Piotr 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
This article deals with the vibrations of a nonprismatic thin-walled beam with an open cross section and any geometrical parameters. The thin-walled beam model presented in this article was described using the membrane shell theory, whilst the equations were derived based on the Vlasov theory assumptions. The model is a generalisation of the model presented by Wilde (1968) in ‘The torsion of thin-walled bars with variable cross-section’, Archives of Mechanics, 4, 20, pp. 431–443. The Hamilton principle was used to derive equations describing the vibrations of the beam. The equations were derived relative to an arbitrary rectilinear reference axis, taking into account the curving of the beam axis and the axis formed by the shear centres of the beam cross sections. In most works known to the present authors, the equations describing the nonprismatic thin-walled beam vibration problem do not take into account the effects stemming from the curving (the inclination of the walls of the thin-walledcross section towards to the beam axis) of the analysed systems. The recurrence algorithm described in Lewanowicz’s work (1976) ‘Construction of a recurrence relation of the lowest order for coefficients of the Gegenbauer series’, Applicationes Mathematicae, XV(3), pp. 345–396, was used to solve the derived equations with variable coefficients. The obtained solutions of the equations have the form of series relative to Legendre polynomials. A numerical example dealing with the free vibrations of the beam was solved to verify the model and the effectiveness of the presented solution method. The results were compared with the results yielded by finite elements method (FEM).

Обзор методов диагностики при заболеваниях ВНЧС
Authors: Ализаде Джамиля 
Published: April 2019

При диагностике заболеваний ВНЧС ставится цель: выявить заболевание, стадию развития болезни и определить прогноз, обеспечить дифференциальную диагностику, определить предоперационную подготовку; провести оценку лечения; обеспечить безопасность и адекватность исследования.Различные виды исследования имеются конкретные показания для диагностики поражений ВНЧС:Радиографические исследования имеют более низкую стоимость, меньшую дозу лучевой нагрузки и однако и более низкую чувствительность. Они диагностируют менее сложные изменения и позволяют первично дифференцировать между заболеваниями ВНЧС и воспалительными состояниями зубов и челюстей.
КТ-исследования чувствительны и специфичны при морфологических, дегенеративных изменениях и переломов костей составляющих сустав. CBCT является золотым стандартом для обзоров костных структур челюстно-лицевой области. Воспалительные изменения, расположения суставного диска и другие структуры мягких тканей четко визуализируются и оцениваются с помощью МРТ. Он также может быть оценен с помощью УЗИ, что необходимо для дифференциальной диагностики заболеваний ВНЧС и заболеваний слюнных желез. Этот метод целесообразен для оценки лечения при таких методах терапии как вискосапплементации и артроцентезисе. Диагностика методами ядерной медицины, в первую очередь показана, для оценки метаболических изменений, опухолевых процессов и областей метастазирования.
Comparison of peer-tutor and librarian feedback for the literature search component of a medical school research course
Authors: Maranda Suzanne , Halliday Sandra , Murray Heather E. , Cooper Alexandra 
Published: April 2019

Introduction: The aim of this study is to compare the peer tutor and librarian feedback on second year medical students’ literature search skills as part of a research course at Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada.
Methods: Student peer tutors and medical librarians each assessed a sample of literature searches for a culminating project. Two separate student cohorts were evaluated, and the marked rubrics were compared.
Students also participated in focus groups. An online survey was sent to a third cohort of students who did not work with peer tutors, but instead met with librarians one-on-one to discuss their literature searches.
Results: There was a measurable difference in the mark agreement between the peer tutors and the librarians. Unsurprisingly, librarians identified important errors and omissions unseen by the peer tutors. Peer tutors found the process of peer assessment very useful for their own learning and teaching skill development, however, the non-peer tutor students did not appreciate the value of this methodology. After peer tutoring was discontinued, the survey feedback was very positive about the value of the individual librarian consultations.
Discussion: Medical students conducting a research project need to perform thorough literature searches. Although librarians found the consultations time-consuming, they found that the consultations improved searches more than having students receive help from peer tutors in the same class. The surveyed students were positive about the librarian consultation.

Are public managers more risk averse? Framing effects and status quo bias across the sectors
Authors: Nicholson-Crotty Sean , Nicholson-Crotty Jill , Webeck Sean 
Published: April 2019

Modern reforms meant to incentivize public managers to be more innovative and accepting of risk are often implicitly based in the longstanding assumption that public employees are more risk averse than their private sector counterparts. We argue, however, that there is more to learn about the degree to which public and private managers differ in terms of risk aversion. In order to address this gap, we field a series of previously validated experiments designed to assess framing effects and status quo bias in a sample of public and private sector managers. Our results indicate that public managers are not more risk averse or anchored to the status quo than their private sector counterparts; in fact, the findings suggest the opposite may be true under some conditions. In addition, our results fail to confirm previous findings in the literature suggesting that public service motivation is associated with risk aversion. We conclude with a discussion of the implications of these results for the study of risky choice in the public sector and for modern public management reforms.
Perfil emocional del profesorado y sus implicaciones en prácticas docentes no intervencionistas
Authors: Peña Trapero Noemí 
Published: April 2019

Resumen:Este estudio tiene como contexto empírico un Proyecto Nacional de Investigación que consistió entre otras cosas en la inmersión de cinco investigadores en el aula de siete maestras de Educación Infantil para estudiar su conocimiento práctico, o conocimiento en la acción (Schön, 1993, 1998). De manera específica, nos detenemos en analizar - desde un enfoque cualitativo basado en la observación prolongada dentro del aula, entrevistas y muestreo de la experiencia - el perfil emocional de una de las maestras a través de dos procesos: (1) Análisis de emociones primarias presentes en su día a día y sus repercusiones en los métodos de enseñanza; (2) Identificación de sus habilidades de Inteligencia Emocional y comprobación que a mayor manejo de las mismas, mayor apertura intelectual para superar la resistencia al cambio hacia modelos de enseñanza menos intervencionistas. Los resultados reflejan cómo el plano emocionalmente inteligente basado en el optimismo, ilusión, alegría y en la esperanza facilita el desarrollo de metodologías que requieren una menor intervención por parte del docente y que implican depositar la confianza sobre el alumnado. Esto supone un salto cualitativo en la forma de entender el aprendizaje por parte del docente.

Published: April 2019

Background: Various efforts are made to maintain and improve the quality of nursing services, one of which is to carry out nursing care according to the standards of nursing practice safely, effectively and ethically. To maintain quality, it is necessary to control nursing care in a directed and planned manner. One of the controls in nursing management is supervision.
Purpose: The purpose of this literature study is to identify the effectiveness of the implementation of supervision on the performance of implementing nurses in hospitals.
Methods: Database searches used in this literature review are Pubmed, Science Direct and Google Scholar published in 2007-2018.
Results: From the six articles used, it was found that supervision had an impact on improving nurses' performance in the form of actions and behaviors that could be measured to maintain and improve the quality of health services for both sick and healthy patients. Other impacts among them commitment, employee attachment, competence and individual quality as well as improving service qualityto them after completing the credentialing process as stated in the Nurse Clinical Assignment Letter.
Conclusion: Implementation of supervision motivates nurses to be more attached to work, and has better performance opportunities
