Precarious Embodiment
Authors: Koukal D. R. 
Published: September 2019

In this essay I endeavor to provide such an account, and describe at a pretheoretical level an embodied subjectivity at odds with its own state of embodiment, and on the other hand, to explore the limited agency induced by constraints that fall upon an embodied subject who is compelled to live a body which is free to engage the various possibilities of the world in every respect except one, within the context of an intercorporeal social reality. This description will provide a sound ontological foundation where the central place of embodiment in the abortion debate can be re-asserted and properly taken into account. What this description will reveal is the ontological drama of such “aversely pregnant subjectivities” at a time when ever more legislation is being passed that poses ever more restrictions on reproductive rights of women in the United States (Guttmacher Institute 2018). This investigation is all the more pertinent in light of Justice Anthony Kennedy’s recent announcement that he is retiring from the U.S. Supreme Court, which may well put the right to legal abortions in jeopardy (Davis 2018). My highest ambition, however, is to convey the significance of these restrictions to those who have never been and never can become pregnant, but who by and large determine the polices that play a substantial role in shaping such subjectivities.
On Finding Yourself in a State of Nature
Authors: Pascoe Jordan 
Published: September 2019

I defend the right to an abortion at any stage of pregnancy by drawing on a Kantian account of consent and innate right. I examine how pregnant women are positioned in moral and legal debates about abortion, and develop a Kanitan account of bodily autonomy in order to pregnant women’s epistemic authority over the experience of pregnancy. Second, I show how Kant's distinction between innate and private right offers an excellent legal framework for embodied rights, including abortion and sexual consent, and I draw on the legal definition of sexual consent in order to show how abortion discourse undermines women's innate right. I then explore Kant’s treatment of the infanticidal mother, and draw out the parallels between this case and contemporary abortion rights in order to develop a distinctly Kantian framework of reproductive rights in non-ideal conditions. Finally, I explore the implications of this non-ideal approach for contemporary abortion discourse, arguing that debates about the legality of abortion should more broadly engage the barbaric conditions of reproductive injustice.
Gender Differences in the Rotation of City Maps

Abstract
This study assessed gender differences in city map rotation, and the differences between architecture, business studies, fine arts, and psychology undergraduates. Participants were given 90 pairs of maps positioned at different rotation angles (0°, 90°, and 180°). Participants were required to ascertain as quickly as possible whether rotating the map on its axis to the right (without lifting it up) aligned it with the model. In Test 1, no rotation was required because the angle was 0°, whereas in Tests 2 and 3 the angle of rotation was 90° or 180°, respectively. The number of correct rotations (correct choices minus errors) were calculated for women and men and for field of study. Men made more correct choices minus errors than women. Architecture undergraduates made more correct choices minus errors than other students. This study indicates that maps placed on physical elements located in streets or buildings should be positioned at 0° in relation to the surrounding environment. Additional studies are needed to analyze the causes underlying differences between women and men and differences in map rotation between undergraduates of other university degrees.

A dieta de cafeteria foi desenvolvida a fim de mimetizar a dieta ocidentalizada, uma vez que esta associa-se a desordens no perfil cardiovascular, como dislipidemias, hiperglicemia, acúmulo de gordura corporal, entre outros. Os frutanos tipo inulina (FTI) são fibras solúveis categorizados como prebióticos. O presente estudo objetivou avaliar os efeitos da dieta de cafeteria associadas aos FTI sobre o perfil cardiometabólico em ratos Wistar. Para tanto, utilizou-se 30 animais. Os FTI purificados, bem como, provenientes da matriz alimentar (yacon em pó), foram adicionados a seus respectivos grupos experimentais na dose de 6%, durante 30 dias. As variáveis analisadas foram: composição centesimal e conteúdo de FTI, ganho de peso (GP), peso relativo do ceco (PRC), peso relativo do fígado (PRF), consumo alimentar, glicemia, triglicerídeos, colesterol total, HDL-c, LDL-c, tecido adiposo subcutâneo e visceral (epididimal, retroperitoneal e mesentérica). Todas as análises seguiram os protocolos padronizados. A análise estatística foi realizada no software Sigma Stat 4.0 e teste de normalidade de Shapiro-Wilk, testes descritivos, ANOVA ou teste de Kruskal-Wallis seguidos dos testes de comparação de médias de Duncan ou Dunn’s. O nível de significância adotado foi de p<0,05. A variável PRC foi estatisticamente maior nos grupos submetidos aos FTI. O grupo que recebeu dieta de cafeteria apresentou valores superiores no GP, VLDL, triglicerídeos, tecido adiposo subcutâneo e epididimal. Não houve diferença estatística nos parâmetros PRF, colesterol total, LDL-c, HDL-c e glicemia. Portanto, através deste trabalho, verificou-se efeitos sistêmicos benéficos dos FTI em parâmetros como: PRC, GP, VLDL, triglicerídeos, tecido adiposo.

Published: September 2019

O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a prevalência de enteroparasitoses e os fatores envolvidos na transmissão de enteroparasitoses em crianças de 0 a 15 anos de idade do município de São Jerônimo da Serra, Paraná. O trabalho foi desenvolvido no período de julho de 2014 a junho 2017. Analisou-se 362 amostras pelos métodos de Hoffman, Pons e Janer e Faust e cols. As associações entre variáveis socioeconômicas, referentes aos hábitos das crianças e ao ambiente em que vivem e enteroparasitoses foram verificadas por meio de regressão logística, considerado nível de significância de 5%. Encontrou-se alta prevalência de parasitismo (36,5%), uma alta frequência de poliparasitismo (43,9%) e uma freqüência maior de protozoários (34,5%) em relação aos helmintos (3,9%). Os enteroparasitas patogênicos encontrados foram Giardia lamblia (8,0%), Entamoeba histolytica/dispar (3,6%), Hymenolepis nana (2,5%), Enterobius vermicularis (2,2%), Ascaris lumbricoides (1,1%), ancilostomídeos (0,8%) e Trichuris trichiura (0,3%). Endolimax nana foi o mais frequentemente encontrado (19,3%). Mesmo sendo comensal, sua detecção é preocupante uma vez que o mecanismo de transmissão (fecal-oral) é igual dos microrganismos patogênicos. Observou-se associação entre a presença de enteroparasitoses e faixa etária, renda familiar, escolaridade dos responsáveis, morar em zona rural, consumo de água não tratada, destino inadequado do lixo, contato com areia ou terra e presença de um animal de estimação. Hábitos de higiene, condições sanitárias, socioeconômicas e sociodemográficas estão diretamente relacionados às infecções por parasitos intestinais e devem ser melhoradas para evitar disseminação na população

Abstract
The profiles of Vitis vinifera L. and Salvia triloba L. leaf extracts have been studied via photometric assays on the basis of their total phenolic and flavonoid content as well as of their radical scavenging and antioxidant activities. Ultrasound-assisted (UAE) and pressurized liquid extractions (PLE) were implemented for producing polar fractions from the plants, using different methanol–water and glycerol–water mixtures for UAE and PLE, respectively. Aqueous methanol was proved an effective solvent for the UAE of total phenolics and flavonoids as well as for increased radical scavenging and antioxidant activities. As for PLE, plain water was proved a more efficient solvent than hydroglycerolic mixtures. Overall, irrespective of the solvent(s) used, UAE extracts showed higher values compared with the PLE extracts for all the photometric determinations and for both plant species. Moreover, Salvia UAE and PLE extracts presented higher total phenolic and flavonoid contents, accompanied by higher radical scavenging and antioxidant activities, compared with Vitis extracts. The correlations among photometric results were also studied, indicating the categories of compounds that relate to the antioxidant and/or radical scavenging activities of the extracts. Mixtures of the examined extracts could be exploited as the basis of novel phytotherapeutic products in the cosmetic sector.

Published: September 2019

As redes sem fio são a maneira mais comum de acessar a Internet, com mais de 10 bilhões de dispositivos Wi-Fi já vendidos. As conexões sem fio sofrem problemas relacionados ao uso excessivo do espectro, a erros de transmissão e a perda de informações. Sistemas inteligentes de controle são uma alternativa para o gerenciamento eficiente da rede, visando à melhoria da Qualidade de Serviço (QoS). No entanto, o primeiro passo é obter uma função que relaciona as configurações de Wi-Fi atuais a um valor de QoS esperado. Este trabalho propõe um modelo que utiliza RNN para inferir tal relação, baseado em dados reais de Wi-Fi. Ele compara duas RNNs: GRU e LSTM. O modelo prevê quatro métricas de rede: vazão, perda, atraso e variação do atraso (jitter), com base apenas nos dados de tráfego obtidos no AP. O RMSE médio é da ordem de 10-2 para vazão, de 10-4 para o atraso, e de 10-5 para a jitter e para a perda de pacotes para ambos os métodos.
Engrailed 1 overexpression as a potential prognostic marker in Lower Grade Glioma
Authors: Zhu Jin , Zhang Yu-Qi 
Published: September 2019

Background
Engrailed 1 (EN1), as a member of homeobox-containing transcription factors, participates in the development of the brain. High expressions of EN1 exist in various tumors. However, the role of EN1 in lower grade glioma (LGG) is still unknown.

Methods
Coefficients of Cox regression were examined by data mining among 13 cancer types using OncoLnc to validate EN1 expressions in LGG patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas database (TCGA). Bioinformatic analysis was performed by using R2 and the UCSC Xena browser based on the data from 273 glioma cases in GSE16011 from GEO datasets and 530 cases of LGG patients in TCGA. Cases in GSE16011 were divided into two groups according to IDH1 mutation status. Cases in TCGA-LGG were classified to subtypes according to histopathological results, IDH1 mutation status and 1p19q status. The Kaplan–Meier survival curves were performed to analyze the relationship between EN1 expressions and clinicopathological characteristics and survival time respectively.

Results
Cox regression results showed that LGG was ranked statistically first among 13 different cancer types according to the false discovery rate (FDR) correction. Results from GSE16011 showed that: glioma, LGG and LGG with IDH1 mutation patients with high EN1 expressions had significantly shorter 5, 10, and 15-year overall survival time (OS) (p < 0.001). Similar results from TCGA-LGG showed that LGG patients with high EN1 expressions had significantly shorter 15-year OS, irrespective of IDH1 mutation and 1p19q co-deletion (p < 0.001). The astrocytoma subgroup showed highest levels of EN1 expression and shortest 5, 10 and 15-year OS compared with oligoastrocytoma and oligodendroglioma (p < 0.05).

Conclusion
EN1 can be used as a prognostic marker in LGG patients, combined with IDH1 mutation and 1p19q co-deletion.

Published: September 2019

The clinicopathological features of inflammatory breast carcinoma (IBC), the effect of therapeutic options on survival outcome and the identification of prognostic factors were investigated in this study. Information on IBC patients were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database between 2010 and 2015. Cox proportional hazard regression was used to determine potential significant prognostic factors of IBC. A nomogram was then constructed to evaluate patient survival based on certain variables. Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that race (p < 0.001), M stage (p < 0.001), surgery (p = 0.010), chemotherapy (CT) (p < 0.001), tumor size (p = 0.010), estrogen receptor (p < 0.001), progesterone receptor (p = 0.04), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (p < 0.001) were all independent risk factors. The concordance index (C-index) of the nomogram was 0.735, which showed good predictive efficiency. Survival analysis indicated that IBC patients without CT had poorer survival than those with CT (p < 0.001). Stratified analyses showed that modified radical mastectomy (MRM) had significant survival advantages over non-MRM in patients with stage IV IBC (p = 0.031). Patients treated with or without CT stratified by stage III and stage IV showed better survival than those without stage III and IV (p < 0.001). Trimodality therapy resulted in better survival than surgery combined with CT or CT alone (p < 0.001). Competing risk analysis also showed the same results. The nomogram was effectively applied to predict the 1, 3 and 5-year survival of IBC. Our nomogram showed relatively good accuracy with a C-index of 0.735 and is a visualized individually predictive tool for prognosis. Treatment strategy greatly affected the survival of patients. Trimodality therapy was the preferable therapeutic strategy for IBC. Further prospective studies are needed to validate these findings.

Published: September 2019

BackgroundLecanicillium lecaniiis an entomopathogenic fungi, which was isolated from insects suffering from disease. Now, it is an effective bio-control resource that can control agricultural pests such as whitefly and aphids. There are many studies on the control of various agricultural pests byL. lecanii, but no report on its control ofBemisia tabacibiotype-Q exists. In this work, we studied the susceptibility ofB. tabaciQ-biotype (from Ningxia, China) toL. lecaniiJMC-01 in terms of nymph mortality and the changes in detoxifying protective enzymes activities.MethodsB. tabacinymphs were exposed toL. lecaniiJMC-01 conidia by immersion with the host culture. Mortality was assessed daily for all nymph stages. The detoxifying and protective enzyme activity changes, weight changes, and fat, and water contents of the nymphs were determined spectrophotometrically.ResultsAll instars ofB. tabacidied after being infested with 1 × 108conidia/mL. The 2nd-instar nymphs were the most susceptible, followed by the 3rd-instar nymphs. The corrected cumulative mortality of the 2nd- and 3rd-instar nymphs was 82.22% and 75.55%, respectively. The levels of detoxifying and protective enzymes initially increased and then decreased. The highest activities of carboxylesterase, acetylcholinesterase, peroxidase, and catalase occurred on the 3rd day, reaching 10.5, 0.32, 20, and 6.3 U/mg prot, respectively. These levels were 2.2-, 4.3-, 2.4-, and 1.4-fold the control levels, respectively. The highest activities of glutathione-S transferase and superoxide dismutase on the 2nd day were, respectively, 64 and 43.5 U/mg prot. These levels were, respectively, 2.7 and 1.1-fold that of the control level. The water and fat content in the infectedB. tabacinymphs decreased and differed significantly from the control levels. The weight increased continuously in the first 24 h, decreasing thereafter. At 72 h, the infestation level was about 0.78-fold that of the control level.ConclusionsThe studiedL. lecaniiJMC-01 strain is pathogenic to theB. tabaciQ-biotype. This strain interferes with the normal functioning of detoxifying and protective enzymes, and is also involved in the disruption of normal physiological metabolism inB. tabaci.

Aim: This study was carried out to determine the effects of dried Moringa oleifera leaves on Bifidobacteria and Escherichia coli in the gut of albino rats.
Location: The rats were habituated under laboratory conditions at the animal house of the Department of Zoology, Faculty of Science, University of Ibadan, for two weeks in other to adapt to the environmental conditions during the experiment.
Duration of Study: The rats were exposed to the M. oleifera feed for four weeks.
Design of Study: There were five groups in all. The 5 to 6 weeks old rats were fed with M. oleifera powder supplement except for the control groups.
Methods: No supplement of M. oleifera feed was administered to group A while group B received streptomycin antibiotics.
Groups C, D and E received dried leaf supplement of M. oleifera (DMO) 1.25 g/kg body weight (2.5%), 2.5 g/kg body weight (5%) and 5.0 g/kg body weight (10%) respectively.
Results: E.coli counts increased from 2.3*104 to 2.6*104 colony-forming units per gram (cfu/g) in group E, from 2.2*104 to 3.0*10 cfu/g in group B; but reduced from 4.1*104 to 3.7*104 cfu/g in group D and from 5.4*104 to 3.9*104 cfu/g in group C between day 20 and day 28. As from day 8, the isolates from the non-control groups were resistant to the M. oleifera extract except E. coli isolates in both 5% and 10% M. oleifera groups on day 8 with 6 mm zone of inhibition each. The rate of Bifidobacteria viable counts increase in group E was expressed as P = 0.05 at the beginning of the experiment, unlike E.coli counts where there was a decrease.
Conclusion: The M. oleifera leaf alters the microbiota in the gut, a situation which sends impulses to the brain. Thus, the M. oleifera leaf powder is a potential prebiotic for probiotics like Bifidobacteria, and as well as induce changes in the gut-brain axis.
