Laboratory Investigation of Microsurfacing Asphalt Modified with Nanosilica and Nanoclay Combined with Polyethylene Fibers
Authors: Otadi Ameneh , Tanzadeh Javad 
Published: May 2018

Abstract
Microsurfacing asphalt is a thin surface treatment comprising asphalt emulsion, filler, and crushed stone materials that can be defined as a protective asphalt that has low thickness and is adaptable to the environment. In this study, the mix design was specified in terms of the optimal percentage of additives to asphalt emulsion; the additives contained 4 wt % nanosilica and 3 wt % nanoclay in addition to 0.4 wt % polyethylene fibers that can be defined as a kind of flexible fiber-reinforced microsurfacing. The results of the abrasion test indicate that an increase in the resistance to long-term moisture sensitivity in fiber-reinforced microsurfacing occurs when resistance against abrasion in this sample is increased 30 % and the contents of nanoclay and fiber are in an optimal combination. The results of the sand adhesion test demonstrate that an increase in the amount of nanosilica is far more effective than an increase in nanoclay and fiber. Also, a comparison of the results of the cohesion and loaded wheel tests reveals that the specimen with the greatest possible cohesion between its components still has a low vertical displacement; thus, it is recommended as the best combination for producing and manufacturing highly flexible fiber-reinforced microsurfacing. This indicates that nanosilica and fiber effectively modify surfaces. Additionally, a 46 % improvement in rutting resistance and a 27 % increase in the flexural tensile strain was obtained in the fiber-reinforced microsurfacing.
Prospective, Randomized Un-Blinded Three Arm Controlled Study in Coronary Artery Revascularization with Minimal Invasive Extracorporeal Circulation Systems (MiECC): Surrogate Parameter Analysis of Biocompatibility
Authors: Kiessling Arndt H , Keller Harald , Moritz Anton 
Published: May 2018

Objectives: Minimal extracorporeal circulation techniques and systems (MiECC) may reduce the negative side effects of conventional extracorporeal circulation (ECC). However, it is still unclear as to what this is caused by, the reduced priming volume and hemodilution, or the avoidance of blood-air contact and dispersion of mediastinal debris into the systemic circulation. The aim of the trial was the comparison of MiECC to an open ECC setup (openECC) or a system with reduced blood air and debris interaction (closeECC). Methods: In a prospective randomized trial, 72 patients (73 ± 5.3 years; 83% male) referred for coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) were randomly assigned either to MiECC (priming volume 550mL), closeECC, or openECC (priming volume 1250mL). The laboratory surrogate endpoints (renal function, inflammatory response, ischemia, coagulation, and hemolysis) and clinical data were measured at six different time points (T1-6). Results: Patients were comparable for all preoperative variables. The operation times (MiECC 261 ± 79min; openECC 264 ± 75min; closeECC 231 ± 68min) and perfusion times (MiECC 115 ± 49min; openECC353 107 ± 37min; closeECC 99 ± 22min) revealed a trend of faster performance in the closeECC group (P < .05). Pro-inflammatory cytokines, ischemia, and coagulation markers were significantly elevated postoperatively in all cardiopulmonary bypass types, and decreased to pre-baseline levels at discharge (T5) without identifiable statistical differences between the three study groups. Free-hemoglobin was not significantly increased by centrifugal pump or cell saver procedures. Significant intraoperative hemodilution effects due to the different priming volumes were demonstrated only at the end of operation (T2) (MiECC Hb 9.6 ± 1.1g/dL; openECC Hb 9.0 ± 0.8g/dL; closeECC Hb 8.7 ± 1g/dL; P =. 01).Conclusion: Neither the hemodilution, suction technique (MiECC), nor blood-air interface (closeECC) could show sustainable benefits in this underpowered study, compared to conventional ECC systems (openECC) in a high volume series of surrogate parameters.
Establishment of Locally Adapted Mutations Under Divergent Selection
Authors: Tomasini Matteo , Peischl Stephan 
Published: May 2018

Abstract
We study the establishment probabilities of locally adapted mutations using a multi-type branching process framework. We find a surprisingly simple and intuitive analytical approximation for the establishment probabilities in a symmetric two-deme model under the assumption of weak (positive) selection. This is the first analytical closed-form approximation for arbitrary migration rate to appear in the literature. We find that the establishment probability lies between the weak and the strong migration limits if we condition the origin of the mutation to the deme where it is advantageous. This is not the case when we condition the mutation to first occur in a deme where it is disadvantageous. In this case we find that an intermediate migration rate maximizes the probability of establishment. We extend our results to the cases of multiple demes, two demes with asymmetric rates of gene flow, and asymmetric carrying capacities. The latter case allows us to illustrate how density regulation can affect establishment probabilities. Finally, we use our results to investigate the role of gene flow on the rate of local adaptation and identify cases in which intermediate amounts of gene flow facilitate the rate of local adaptation as compared to two populations without gene flow.

OBJECTIVES:To compare neurocognitive, language, executive function, academic achievement, neurologic and behavioral outcomes, and quality of life at age 10 years in children born extremely preterm who developed bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) to children who did not develop BPD.METHODS:The Extremely Low Gestational Age Newborns study population included 863 children born extremely preterm whose BPD status before discharge was known had an IQ (Differential Ability Scales II [DAS II]) assessment at 10 years. We evaluated the association of BPD with any cognitive (DAS II), executive function (NEuroPSYchological Assessment II), academic achievement (Wechsler Individual Achievement Test-III and Oral and Written Language Scales [OWLS]) as well as social dysfunctions (Social Responsiveness Scale). We used logistic regression models, adjusting for potential confounding factors, to assess the strength of association between the severity of BPD and each outcomes.RESULTS:Three hundred and seventy-two (43%) children were oxygen-dependent at 36 weeks postconception age, whereas an additional 78 (9%) were also oxygen- and ventilator-dependent. IQ scores 2 or more SDs below the expected mean (ie, z scores ≤−2) occurred twice as commonly among children who had BPD as among those who did not. Children with severe BPD consistently had the lowest scores on DAS II, OWLS, Wechsler Individual Achievement Test-III, NEuroPSYchological Assessment II, and Social Responsiveness Scale assessments.CONCLUSIONS:Among 10-year-old children born extremely preterm, those who had BPD were at increased risk of cognitive, language, and executive dysfunctions; academic achievement limitations; social skill deficits; and low scores on assessments of health-related quality of life.
¿Un intento epistemológico? El diseño como vigilante de métodos
Authors: Pérez García David 
Published: May 2018

La epistemología del diseño ha sido objeto de numerosos debates. En este trabajo se expondrá la posibilidad de entender que el diseño tiene una especificidad que no se puede confundir con otro aspecto de las actividades humanas como la ciencia, el arte y la técnica. Con base en los postulados de algunos científicos sociales, se propone una estructura cognitiva para no hablar de un objeto de conocimiento, dado que el diseño no es ciencia ni epistemología. Así, se consolida la posibilidad de comprender que la especificidad de los elementos de diseño se encuentra entre lo sensible y lo inteligible, pues comparte elementos del conocimiento con la ciencia y lo sensible con el arte, pero sin tener relación directa con dichas actividades. Desde luego, la vigilancia del método se trató de abstraer de la propuesta para demostrar que los elementos tienen una duplicidad, en cuanto actuación en la vida cotidiana desde la aplicación de los resultados de la ciencia para hacerlos sensibles en distancia con el arte.
Las imágenes enseñan desequilibrando. Televisión educativa colombiana
Authors: Rojas Torres Olga 
Published: May 2018

El pensamiento está estructurado como una red que tiende al equilibrio. Sin embargo, para que se produzca el aprendizaje es necesario desequilibrar la malla cognitiva. Así, nos preguntamos cómo provocar desequilibrios. Para responder esta inquietud estudiamos dos series de televisión educativa infantil animada colombiana que circularon por el canal Señal Colombia en 2010: Jaibaná y Wanana. El análisis se hizo siguiendo las pautas de la semiolingüística. La pregunta planteada al análisis semiolingüístico del aparato argumentativo de las series es si se producen y cómo producen imágenes que revelen relaciones lógicas. Para hacer el puente entre el lenguaje visual y la cognición se tomaron los conceptos de choque y encadenamiento en la edición de cuadros y secuencias de imagen. Para el campo de cognición las guías fueron los conceptos de argumentación, equilibrio y desequilibrio. Si bien el análisis arrojó como tendencia el uso de imágenes tipo encadenamientos y secuencias asociables a la lógica de causa-consecuencia, en este artículo se enfatiza en las cualidades desequilibrantes de la imagen y sus recursos. Así, tenemos secuencias lógicas equilibradas o desequilibradas, siendo estas últimas las de mayor impacto educativo. También encontramos imágenes que contienen lo que podríamos llamar argumento y contrargumento en un solo cuadro.
Acerca del concepto de memoria gráfica
Authors: Lena Farias Priscila 
Published: May 2018

En Brasil, desde principios del siglo XXI, la expresión memoria gráfica ha sido usada, cada vez con más frecuencia, para denominar una línea de estudios que busca comprender la importancia y el valor de los artefactos visuales, en particular, los impresos efímeros, para la creación de un sentido de identidad local a través del diseño. Tales artefactos han sido invisibilizados por mucho tiempo por las corrientes dominantes sobre lo que sería el diseño y, en consecuencia, de lo que debe hacer parte de la historia del diseño. Otras historias del diseño que incluyan tales artefactos aún deben ser descubiertas y narradas.Este artículo propone una reflexión acerca de los contextos en los que ha sido utilizada la memoria gráfica en el campo de la investigación de los artefactos visuales en Brasil, partiendo de una discusión sobre las conexiones posibles con conceptos más conocidos, como los de cultura de la impresión, cultura visual y cultura material, dando ejemplos de investigaciones realizadas, y llegando a una propuesta de cómo la idea de memoria gráfica puede ser adoptada como una estrategia para abordar el descubrimiento o la construcción de historias de diseño gráfico y visual en países no hegemónicos.

DETERMINATION OF MINERALS CONTENT IN LEAVES OF MORINGA OLEIFERA BY NEUTRON ACTIVATION ANALYSIS. Moringa oleifera ( Mo) or kelor is a high-value plant, distributed in many tropical and subtropical countries. This plant can be used as a vegetable, cosmetic oil, and medicinal plant. The leaves of Mo is rich in essential minerals needed by the body’s health. Moringa oleifera widely cultivated in various places in Indonesia, easily obtained and inexpensive so precious can be used to overcome malnutrition. Research on the macro-micro mineral content in Moringa leaves here is still limited. Mineral composition in leaves include Mo leaves varies depending on location grow. The purpose of this research is to determine the mineral content in the leaves of the Mo taken from Indonesia. For the preliminary study samples was taken from Central Java to be compared with the results of studies conducted in several other countries. Leaf samples were collected randomly from sampling area. Mineral content in the samples is determined using Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA). Irradiation was carried out at rabbit system of Multipurpose Reactor G.A Siwabessy on neutron flux ~1013 n.cm-2.dt-1. The results obtained indicate that Mo is rich in essential minerals, mainly Ca, Mg, K, Zn, Fe and Cl. Content in dried leaves include: calcium (3.45 % ), magnesium (0.66 %), potassium (3.35 %), chloride (0,25%), iron (147.20 mg/kg), sodium ( 152.52 mg/kg ), zinc (35.71 mg/kg), and manganese (102.10 mg/kg). Mo also contains other minerals such as chromium (4.76 mg/kg), bromine (4.82 mg/kg), cobalt (0.16 mg/kg), and aluminium (150.40 mg/kg) in addition to other element. Compared with the results of existing studies, it shows that mineral composition in Mo leaves varies depending on the location where the plant is grown.

ANALISIS OPTIMASI TARGET U-235 PENGKAYAAN RENDAH (LEU) UNTUK MENDUKUNGPRODUKSI 99Mo DAN TARGET BATU TOPAZDI REAKTOR RSG-GAS. Peningkatan utilitas produksi radioisotop di reaktor RSG-GAS, seperti produksi99Mo dan target batu topaz perlu upaya optimasi iradiasi target U-235 pengkayaan rendah (LEU) di dalam teras reaktor RSGF-GAS. Terdapat 4 posisi IP (Irradiation Position) yang saat ini digunakan untuk iradiasi batu topaz secara rutin dari 8 posisi iradiasi yang tersedia di dalam teras reaktor. Oleh karena itu, iradiasi target yang lain hanya dapat dilakukan di posisi CIP (Central Irradiation Position). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis jumlah target LEU yang optimum di posisi CIP dan iradiasi batu topaz di IP RSG-GAS. Ruang lingkup penelitian ini meliputi pemantauan batasan keselamatan operasi faktor puncak daya radial maksimum, margin reaktivitas padam saat stuck rod dan perubahan fluks neutron di detektor un-balanced load. Pendekatan perhitungan menggunakan metode difusi neutron 2-dimensi, Batan-2DIFF dengan asumsi target LEU menggunakan proses electroplating. Hasil perhitungan menunjukkan jika 4 posisi CIP diisi penuh target LEUdengan massa optimal 14,4 g (1,2 g per kapsul) dan 36 g (3 g per kapsul) diperoleh 0,72% ∆k/k dan 1,12% ∆k/k jika dibandingkan dengan safety margin sebesar 2% ∆k/k maka seluruh parameter teras masih memenuhi syarat batas keselamatan operasi. Dengan demikian reaktor RSG-GAS aman dioperasikan untuk mengiradiasi targetLEU dengan massa yang optimal.

Published: May 2018

El presente artículo se centra en la historia de la educación en dos países latinoamericanos: Argentina y Colombia para decodificar cómo, desde sus orígenes como nación, la intención de afianzar la nacionalidad y la ciudadanía se usó para la exclusión, la invisibilización o la integración subordinada de poblaciones y culturas que no eran consideradas parte de la nación. También señala las limitaciones que han tenido los análisis desde el campo de la historia de la educación en América Latina, para dar cuenta y problematizar el correlato racista y excluyente hacia los pueblos indígenas y las comunidades negras y afrodescendientes. Por último, ofrece una lectura sobre las líneas de investigación y aportes que diferentes autores vienen haciendo para analizar esta problemática desde los textos escolares.

KEKERASAN TERHADAP PEREMPUAN DALAM BAHASA DAN MEDIA

Published: May 2018

<p class="Bodytext20">Language and media are accused of being an effective tool for perpetuating the dominance of men over women through word and image. This paper reviews how language uses words that deliberately 'marginalize' women. While the media continues to contain images and events that also discredit and degrade women's dignity. Because of the many perspectives on violence, this article will only understand violence according to the Galtung perspective. Because, as known Johan Galtung is a sociologist who devoted his attention to violence as a social phenomenon two decades past. Injustice and inequality due to social gender either through language with the harsh and degrading selection of words and degrading women's dignity or through the media that shows women as sex objects and commodities shows that violence will continue. Because, in addition to the media have the authority as the holder of the news an event, women themselves attitudes justify, underline and accept the myth of male domination of women. If people think women are not as smart as men, they tend to accept because they accept the authority of society.</p><p class="Bodytext20"> </p><p class="Bodytext20">Bahasa dan media dituding sebagai alat yang efektif untuk mengekalkan dominasi laki-laki atas perempuan melalui kata maupun gambar. Tulisan ini mengulas bagaimana bahasa menggunakan kata yang dengan sengaja ‘meminggirkan’ kaum perempuan. Sedangkan media terus menerus memuat gambar dan peristiwa yang juga memojokkan dan merendahkan martabat kaum perempuan. Karena banyaknya perspektif tentang kekerasan, tulisan ini hanya akan memahami kekerasan menurut perspektif Galtung. Sebab, sebagaimana diketahui Johan Galtung merupakan sosiolog yang mencurahkan perhatiannya pada kekerasan sebagai fenomena sosial dua dasa warsa terakhir. Ketidakadilan dan ketidak setaraan akibat jenis kelamin sosial baik melalui bahasa dengan pemilihan kata-kata yang kasar dan merendahkan martabat perempuan maupun melalui media yang menayangkan perempuan sebagai obyek dan komoditas seks menunjukkan bahwa kekerasan masih akan terus berlangsung. Sebab, selain media memiliki otoritas sebagai pemegang pemberitaan sebuah peristiwa, perempuan sendiri sikapnya ikut membenarkan, menggarisbawahi dan menerima saja mitos dominasi laki-laki atas perempuan. Kalau masyarakat menilai perempuan tidak sepintar laki-laki, mereka cenderung menerima karena mereka menerima otoritas masyarakat.</p>

Published: May 2018

Objectives. To assess predictors of timely human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine follow-through among privately insured individuals initiating the 3-dose series. Methods. Using MarketScan Commercial claims data, we identified 1 332 217 privately insured US individuals aged 9 to 26 years who initiated the bivalent or quadrivalent HPV vaccine series from 2006 to 2014, with follow-up data extending through 2015. The study outcome was receipt of third HPV dose within 12 months of the first, compared by year of initiation. Control variables were age, region, insurance plan type, provider type, and seasonal influenza vaccination. Results. Timely HPV vaccine follow-through fell over time. The trend was especially pronounced for females (from 67% in 2006 to 38% in 2014), but was also present for males (from 36% in 2011 to 33% in 2014). Similar patterns were present when we controlled for patient and provider characteristics or used alternative definitions of follow-through. Other positive predictors of timely follow-through included receipt of flu vaccine in the prior year and receipt of first HPV vaccine dose from an obstetrician/gynecologist. Conclusions. HPV vaccine follow-through is low and has declined over time.
