Economía creativa y salarios urbanos en México
Authors: Valdivia López Marcos , Rodríguez Luna Isabel 
Published: January 2019

<p>Esta investigación analiza los efectos que produce el empleo asociado a las actividades económicas creativas en los salarios urbanos en México durante los últimos años. Los resultados indican que los salarios de los empleos en industrias y ocupaciones creativas son superiores a los salarios de las actividades económicas no creativas. Asimismo, se muestra a partir de regresiones cuantílicas que el empleo creativo tiene un efecto heterogéneo a lo largo de la distribución salarial, siendo el impacto mayor en la parte superior de la distribución. El efecto heterogéneo es fundamental para entender la desigualdad salarial urbana en México.</p>

Published: January 2019

Abstract
Harmful effects of elevated levels of catecholamines are mediated by various mechanisms, including gene transcription and formation of oxidation products. The aim of this study was to see whether the molecular mechanisms underlying the damaging action of adrenaline on DNA are mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS). To do that, we exposed human whole blood cells to 10 μmol L-1adrenaline or 50 μmol L-1H2O2(used as positive control) that were separately pre-treated or post-treated with 500 μmol L-1of quercetin, a scavenger of free radicals. Quercetin significantly reduced DNA damage in both pre- and post-treatment protocols, which suggests that adrenaline mainly acts via the production of ROS. This mechanism is also supported by gradual lowering of adrenaline and H2O2-induced DNA damage 15, 30, 45, and 60 min after treatment. Our results clearly show that DNA repair mechanisms are rather effective against ROS-mediated DNA damage induced by adrenaline.

Published: January 2019

Abstract
Literature about occupational health in small-animal veterinary practices is scarce, but most of it has recognised a number of risks to be considered, including organic dust exposure. The aim of this pilot study was to assess organic dust, bacterial, and fungal contamination in the indoor environment of a typical Portuguese veterinary clinic but also to screen for azoleresistant fungi. To complement these findings we also analysed workers’ nasal exudates for resistant bacteriota. Particles measurements included mass concentrations (PMC) of five particle sizes (PM0.5, PM1, PM2.5, PM5, PM10) and their counts (PNC). Indoor air samples were obtained from six locations as well as before and during cat dental cleaning and cultured on four media for bacterial and fungal assessment. An outdoor sample was also collected for reference Surface samples were taken from the same indoor locations using swabs and we also use electrostatic dust cloths as passive methods. PM10 showed the highest concentrations across the locations. Indoor air fungal loads ranged from 88 to 504 CFU m−3. The azole-resistant Aspergillus section Nigri was identified in one sample. Indoor air bacterial loads ranged from 84 to 328 CFU m-3. Nasopharyngeal findings in the 14 veterinary clinic workers showed a remarkably low prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus (7.1 %). Our results point to contamination with organic dusts above the WHO limits and to the need for better ventilation. Future studies should combine the same sampling protocol (active and passive methods) with molecular tools to obtain more accurate risk characterisation. In terms of prevention, animals should be caged in rooms separate from where procedures take place, and worker protection should be observed at all times.
On sensitivity in transfer impedance measurements
Authors: Pettersen Fred J. 
Published: January 2019

Abstract
The term sensitivity is sometimes misused when discussing volume impedance measurements. This is a critique of the name of the quantity sensitivity, as well as pointing out how the term easily can be misinterpreted. To resolve the issue, a shift of focus towards volume impedance density, which is a more useful quantity, is proposed. A new parameter, perceptivity, is introduced. Perceptivity is useful tool for characterization of measurement systems, to objectively compare systems, and to formulate instrument specifications.

Published: January 2019

Abstract
In the last decades, new solutions for improving lighting properties of white LED lamps (WLEDs) have been the main research direction in optoelectronics. In this paper, a modern approach for enhancing luminous flux and color quality of white LED lamps was presented. By mixing green-emitting CaF2:Ce3+,Tb3+ phosphor with yellow-emitting YAG:Ce phosphor compound, the luminous flux and color quality of white LED lamps with conformal phosphor geometry (CPG) increased significantly. From the obtained results it follows that, the luminous flux increased more than 1.5 times, and the correlated color temperature deviation decreased more than 4 times in comparison with the non-green-emitting CaF2:Ce3+,Tb3+ phosphor. The presented research shows that the green-emitting CaF2:Ce3+,Tb3+ phosphor could become a good candidate for enhancing luminous flux and color quality of white LED lamps.

Published: January 2019

Abstract

Introduction. Students who speak English as a second language (ESL) may face considerable challenges at English language universities.

Aim. To investigate the English language proficiency and academic performance of ESL bachelor’s degree nursing students.

Methods. A correlational design was used with a sample of 136 nursing students who completed a structured questionnaire on socio-demographic characteristics, variables that affect language proficiency, open questions, and English Language Acculturation Scale (ELAS) to identify their English proficiency.

Results. Forty-three percent of the participants experienced difficulty in understanding the second language in clinical practice, 68% experienced challenges in studying the second language, and 47% were embarrassed to speak English. Approximately 71% of the participants had low ELAS scores and 58% had a good grade point average (GPA). Regression analysis revealed that internal motivation, study challenge, and entrance GPA were predictors of academic performance.

Conclusions. The results suggest that students’ grades were correlated with their use of English to read and write during their studies. Thus, faculty administrators should have concrete plans for improving and monitoring the English language proficiency of students throughout their enrolment.

Abstract
Mortality rate represents a number of deaths on a particular territory per time unit. There are general and specific mortalities.
The aims at analysing the characteristics of mortality in Sumadija District for the time period ranging from 2010 – 2017.
The study includes all death cases in the District of Sumadija in period 2010-2017, 34681 cases. The data are described and analysed with χ² test and linear trend.
The trend analysis does not indicate any significant variations during the given time span. The gender analysis reveals that there is a significantly higher number of deceased persons among male population (52.2%, 47.8%, р<0.05). The average age of the deceased females (76.2±13.4) was higher than the average age of males (73.8±14.1) (р<0.05). The cause-specific analysis shows that natural causes of death dominate absolutely (96.5%) over violent deaths (2.7%) and undetermined causes (0.8%). The distribution of death causes according to ICD 10 shows that the most frequent causes of death are heart and blood vessel diseases, respiratory and neoplasm diseases.
The life expectancy of the inhabitants of Sumadija District is increasing over time. There was a slight decrease in the mortality rates during the observed time period. The highest number of the deceased people is 65 or more years old. Men have higher mortality rates throughout their lives. Natural death and non-communicable diseases are dominant. The most common causes of death are heart and blood vessels diseases, in women, and respiratory and neoplasm diseases, in men.

Abstract
In relation with vacation we are able to meet the terms of timesharing or timeshare. To the definition there is necessary to state that their nature rests in time limitation (time) and sharing (share) of using a thing. The timesharing contract was introduced to Slovak legal order by amendment of Civil Code by the Act No. 150/2004 of the Coll. as a consumer contract on right to use of building or its part in certain time periods. Original legal regulation of timesharing was however later abolished by the Act No. 161/2011 of the Coll. on Protection of the Consumer in Case of Providing of Certain Tourism Services and on Change and Amendments of Other Acts. This paper provides look into evolution of legal regulation of timesharing in Slovakia and further analyses of valid legal regulation of timesharing contract and other contracts related thereto. The Author furthermore inform on using of the mentioned regulation in practice.

STMIK STIKOM Indonesia (STIKI Indonesia) memiliki data alumni yang cukup banyak tetapi data tersebut tidak diolah lebih lanjut untuk menjadi informasi yang lebih berguna. STIKI Indonesia juga kurang mengetahui informasi persebaran alumni di dunia kerja. Untuk mengatasi permasalah tersebut dapat memanfaatkan teknologi Sistem Informasi Geografis (SIG) dan data mining. SIG memiliki kemampuan untuk menyajikan informasi dalam bentuk grafis dan data mining bisa mengekstraksi pola yang tersembunyi dari database besar. Clustering dilakukan pada data alumni dengan atribut bidang pekerjaan, Indeks Prestasi Komulatif (IPK), lama study dan lama pengerjaan tugas akhir. Metode yang digunakan yaitu Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) dan untuk pengukuran validitas cluster menggunakan Modified Partition Coefficient (MPC) dan Classification Entropy (CE). Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa jumlah cluster yang paling optimal adalah 7 cluster dan cluster yang memiliki karakteristik terbaik adalah cluster ke 1 yang jumlah anggotanya 49 (9,3155% dari jumlah keseluruhan alumni), jumlah ini masih sangat kecil jika dibandingkan dengan total keseluruhan jumlah alumni. Pengujian menggunakan metode black box pada Sistem Informasi Geografis Pemetaan Persebaran Alumni dengan Analisa Clustering didapatkan hasil bahwa semua modul dalam sistem telah berfungsi dengan baik.
