Published: December 2018

The production and use of plastic bottles is increasing tremendously with passing time. These plastic bottles become a problem when they are disposed as they are non-biodegradable. This means that the waste plastic, when dumped, does not decompose naturally and stays in the environment affecting the ecological system. The use of alternative aggregates like Plastic Coarse Aggregate (PCA) is a natural step in solving part of reduction of natural aggregates as well as to solve the issue discussed above. The researchers are trying from half a century to investigate the alternative materials to be replaced in concrete mixture in place of either aggregate or cement. In this research, the concrete made from plastic waste as coarse aggregates were investigated for compressive strength and Stress-strain relationship. Plastic coarse aggregate have been replaced in place of natural coarse aggregate by different percentages with w/c 0.5, 0.4 and 0.3. The percentage replacement of plastic aggregate in place of mineral coarse aggregate was 25%, 30%, 35% and 40 %. Using Super-plasticizer Chemrite 520-BAS. OPC-53 grade cement was used. Total of forty five Cylinders were prepared based on different combination of Percentage of Plastic aggregate replaced and W/C as discussed above and checked for compressive strength and stress-strain relationship. The compressive strength increases by about 19.25% due to the decrease in W/C from 0.5 to 0.3 for plastic percentage addition of 40%.
Differentially private posterior summaries for linear regression coefficients
Authors: Amitai Gilad , Reiter Jerome 
Published: December 2018

In Bayesian regression modeling, often analysts summarize inferences using posterior probabilities and quantiles, such as the posterior probability that a coefficient exceeds zero or the posterior median of that coefficient. However, with potentially unbounded outcomes and explanatory variables, regression inferences based on typical prior distributions can be sensitive to values of individual data points. Thus, releasing posterior summaries of regression coefficients can result in disclosure risks. In this article, we propose some differentially private algorithms for reporting posterior probabilities and posterior quantiles of linear regression coefficients. The algorithms use the general strategy of subsample and aggregate, a technique that requires randomly partitioning the data into disjoint subsets, estimating the regression within each subset, and combining results in ways that satisfy differential privacy. We illustrate the performance of some of the algorithms using repeated sampling studies. The non-private versions also can be used for Bayesian inference with big data in non-private settings.

Introducción: Los avances científicos, médicos y farmacológicos permiten que a través del tiempo, las culturas, tradiciones y creencias de poblaciones autóctonas se pierdan. Se hace necesaria una adaptación del nuevo modelo de la medicina para no perder el origen de las culturas, propias de cada población y comunidad.Objetivo: Identificar la percepción de los habitantes indígenas acerca del uso de medicina ancestral y convencional.Métodos: Estudio cualitativo, observacional, descriptivo, fenomenológico. La población fue 15 médicos y 15 pobladores de comunidades indígenas. Se realizó un grupo de discusión para recoger las percepciones de los pobladores indígenas y una entrevista semiestructurada para conocer las opiniones de los médicos respecto a las características del acceso de los pobladores a la medicina convencional. La información se analizó utilizando métodos cualitativos (matriz de análisis, identificando categorías, sub-categorías y relaciones entre categorías).Resultados: Se identificaron factores económicos, culturales, sociales, demográficos, la dispersión de la población, empatía con el personal de salud, como intervienen en el uso de la medicina convencional y la medicina ancestral, haciendo más uso de esta última. Conclusiones: En las comunidades se encontró como categoría de mayor relevancia la sociocultural, se concluye que los puntos de convergencia entre la percepción de médicos y pobladores es la categoría sociocultural y el puntos de divergencia se relaciona igualmente a la categoría sociocultural relacionado al uso de plantas y el trato recibido, es decir la elección o preferencia por la medicina tradicional interviene directamente la cultura.

The objective: to determine the influence of irbesartan on cardiohe modynamic and renal function in patients with chronic heart failure with preserved systolic function (CHF PF) with hypertension and atrial fibrillation (AF).Patients and methods. 31 patients with CHF NYHA I III class with preserved systolic function (mean age 68,63 [45,00;85,00] years) were enrolled.Results. Echocardiographic parameters and 6 min walk test were performed in all patients, the creatinine levels were determined in the serum and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was calculated by CKD EPI for all patients as well. Irbesartan was administered to all patients.Conclusion. The treatment with irbesartan of CHF PF patients with hypertension and AF has contributed to the improvement of FC, improvement of 6 min walk test results and to effective control of blood pressure. The drug showed good tolerance and safety. The deterioration of the kidney function in patients with CHF did not result in significant changes of cardiohemodynamics. The use of irbesartan contributed toward increase of GFR with the positive effect in patients with renal insufficiency (GFR <60≥30 ml/min/1,73 m2). Therefore, the irbesartan may be the drug of choice in these patients.

Richard Linklater’ın Uyuşuk Filmi ve Antik Yunan Perspektifinden Bir Kamusal Alan Çözümlemesi
Authors: ERBALABAN GÜRBÜZ Özge Nilay 
Published: December 2018

Antik Yunan toplumu, özellikle
Atinalılar modern Batı uygarlığının tamamen zıttı olan bir yaşam felsefesine
sahiplerdi. Başta aristokratlar ve filozoflar olmak üzere, toplumun ayrıcalıklı
sınıfının ideal yaşam tanımı özgürlükle sıkı ilişki içindeydi. Özgürlük ise
kent devletinin en önemli alametifarikasıydı. Özgürlük, yurttaşın hem insani hem de
yurttaşlık niteliğini yüceltecek düşünsel etkinlikleri gerçekleştirebilmesi
için imkân yaratıyordu. Bu nedenle özgürlüğü kısıtlayan üretim ve ekonomiyle
ilişkili çalışma etkinlikleri kamusal alanın temel meselesi olmaktan, en
azından ‘ideal’ olmaktan çıkarıldı. ‘İdeal’ olan ise düşünce ve felsefenin
üretimiydi. Çoğunlukla kamusal alanda yapılan şölenler ya da yönetsel
toplantılar bunu gerçekleştiren etkinliklerdi. Kent devletinde kamusal alanlar,
yurttaşların birbirleriyle organik iletişim kurması için bir amaç olarak
görülmekteydi. Günümüzde ise kamusal alanlar çoğunlukla ekonomiye ve
rastlantısallıklara bırakılmış; yurttaşların yabancılaşmış ilişkilerinin
zorunlu ortaklığı haline gelmiştir. Günümüz modern devletlerindeki kamusal
yaşam iktisadi üretimi ve ekonomi etkinliklerini ‘ideal’ hale getirmiştir. Bu
makale Richard Linklater’ın Uyuşuk
(Slacker) filminde Antik Yunancı dünya görüşünün sinemasal olarak
oluşturulduğunu göstermeyi amaçlamaktadır. Film bunu birbirine bağlı iki olgu
etrafında yapmaktadır. İlki Antik Yunancı bir biçimde iktisadi üretimi idealize
etmeyen kişilerin varlığıyla, ikincisi ise bu kişilerin kamusal alanı ve
gündelik hayatı düşünsel etkinliklerin üretim coğrafyası olarak kullanmasıyla. Bu
çerçevede filmin çözümlemesinde, modern kamusal alanlar olarak kentin devinimi
üzerine düşünmeye imkân veren flaneurlük kavramı kullanılmaktadır. Çünkü
flaneur kişi Walter Benjamin’in metinlerinde vurgulandığı gibi kenti
gözlemleyip, üzerine düşünce üretmeye boş zamanı olan kişidir ve çoğu zaman
modern kentin filozof imgelerinden birini oluşturur. Öte yandan filmde çalışma
faaliyetlerine yöneltilen hor görünün kuramsal tarih içindeki yerleri de açığa
çıkarılacaktır.

The purpose of the paper is to provide scientific and analytical substantiation for the organizational and legal forms of business entities of mining and logging sectors in accordance with the requirements of the EU Accounting Directive 2013/34 on the disclosure of complete and objective information of tax payments in favour of the state. Subject of study.Regulatory framework for the organizational and legal forms of economic entities of mining and logging sectors. The article substantiates the need for implementation in Ukraine of international standards and best practices of disclosure of information in the extractive industries (mining and logging) in accordance with the Initiative on providing transparency based on main provisions of the accounting Directive 2013/34/EU. Disclosure of information will provide the public with the possibility to access complete and objective information on payments of business entities that operate in the extractive industries in favor of their recipients, creating preconditions for publicly responsible use of minerals resources of national importance. For this purpose, the organizational and legal forms of business entities for the last three years (01.01.2015 - 01.01.2017) have been analyzed and the compliance of the Directive 2013/34/EU with their criteria has been determined.On the basis of the information received it is necessary to make adjustments to legal acts of the business entities in Ukraine. Conclusions. Organizational and legal status of economic entities operating in Ukraine (mining and logging industries) needs to be revised according to the requirements of the Directive 2013/34/EU and the current legal and regulatory framework. For this it is necessary to determine such indicators as total balance sheet and net turnover considering the average number of employees in the unit of account of European countries. This will lead to the business entities consolidation correspondingly to reducing their number, and will thereafter facilitate the administration of taxes in Ukraine.
