Authors: Zieniuk Paweł 
Published: July 2018

The amendment to the accounting law of 15 December 2016 implemented new, unified formats of financial statements for public benefit organisations. Those formats will be applied in reports prepared after the 1st of January 2017. The article presents practical aspects of the new regulations’ implementation in a synthetical manner. From the author’s viewpoint, the new report format matches more the character of activities carried out in the third sector. At the same time, it eliminates problems connected with the need to adjust the format of past reports to the requirements of disclosing revenues and costs of unchargeable, chargeable and economic activities. The results of research carried out on organisations operating in Małopolska are also presented. The research shows the scale of the problem of correctly choosing the format for financial reporting.

The financial crisis that began on the American real estate market has resulted in significant changes in monetary policy, one of the most important of which is policy governing central bank balance sheets, in which the exchange rate plays an important role. The article presents a classification of central bank balance sheet policy, considering the significance of the exchange rate in the various forms of this policy. The study includes an overview of the literature analysing the role attributed to the exchange rate in conducting monetary policy based on shaping the size and structure of the balance sheet. It also presents the issues of channels through which balance sheet policy comes over to affect the exchange rate.
SEARCHING FOR THE TRUE SELF: THE WAY OF NONDUAL WISDOM
Authors: Danylova T. V. 
Published: July 2018

Purpose. This paper attempts at analyzing the phenomenon of the human self in the Western and Eastern traditions, its dissociation and alienation in the contemporary world, and meditation as a way to the True Self. Methodology. The author used anthropological integrative approach, philosophical hermeneutics, along with transpersonal approach. Theoretical basis and results. To overcome the feelings of loneliness, isolation, and alienation, modern individuals need to break through to the spiritual pole that provides them with ever new and deeper meanings; to go beyond the limits of dual thinking to perceive the true nature of their mind. The representatives of the Eastern religious and philosophical schools paid considerable attention to the problem of alienation, loneliness, and the ways of overcoming it. Trying to achieve the state of absolute unity, the Eastern traditions use meditation techniques, which have been developed over the centuries. Meditation contributes to the experience of the unity of existence - the state, in which the very idea of the own self disappears and the «subject – object» unity arises. Reaching the state of nonduality, meditators experience their deep involvement in all that exists. Their mind is filled with absolute peace and harmony; everything has deep meaning and value. They feel freedom. People become existentially absorbed in the world - the changeful world of artists and children, the world where everyone and everything undergo transformations. Meditation leads to the new horizons, to the awareness of infinity and diversity of life. Originality. Human integration into the cosmic body of the universe transforms their perception of the world. Returning to the world of space, time, and causation, being unable to escape the world of differentiation, individuals face a new dilemma. This entails internal conflict. To overcome it, they learn to cultivate the unbounded mind. Incorporation of mindfulness into our daily life brings many benefits. However, the molecular mechanisms of these processes are still insufficiently studied. Nowadays, scientists actively explore the effects of meditative, mind-expanding practices on the physical and mental health. Conclusions. Since the modern life becomes more tough and complex, people seek the way to a harmonious, balanced, and happy existence. It is therefore no coincidence that the spiritual heritage of the East has attracted vivid attention and considerable interest. The Eastern spiritual practices can be used as a guide to a happy human life.

Background
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a ciliopathy caused by mutations in PKD1 and PKD2 that is characterized by renal tubular epithelial cell proliferation and progressive CKD. Although the molecular mechanisms involved in cystogenesis are not established, concurrent inactivating constitutional and somatic mutations in ADPKD genes in cyst epithelium have been proposed as a cellular recessive mechanism.

Methods
We characterized, by whole-exome sequencing (WES) and long-range PCR techniques, the somatic mutations in PKD1 and PKD2 genes in renal epithelial cells from 83 kidney cysts obtained from nine patients with ADPKD, for whom a constitutional mutation in PKD1 or PKD2 was identified.

Results
Complete sequencing data by long-range PCR and WES was available for 63 and 65 cysts, respectively. Private somatic mutations of PKD1 or PKD2 were identified in all patients and in 90% of the cysts analyzed; 90% of these mutations were truncating, splice site, or in-frame variations predicted to be pathogenic mutations. No trans-heterozygous mutations of PKD1 or PKD2 genes were identified. Copy number changes of PKD1 ranging from 151 bp to 28 kb were observed in 12% of the cysts. WES also identified significant mutations in 53 non-PKD1/2 genes, including other ciliopathy genes and cancer-related genes.

Conclusions
These findings support a cellular recessive mechanism for cyst formation in ADPKD caused primarily by inactivating constitutional and somatic mutations of PKD1 or PKD2 in kidney cyst epithelium. The potential interactions of these genes with other ciliopathy- and cancer-related genes to influence ADPKD severity merits further evaluation.

Published: July 2018

BackgroundAutosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the leading inherited renal disease worldwide. The proproliferative function of macrophages is associated with late-stage cyst enlargement in mice with PKD; however, the way in which macrophages act on cyst-lining epithelial cells (CLECs) has not been well elucidated.MethodsWe generated a rapid-onset PKD mouse model by inactivatingPkd1on postnatal day 10 (P10) and compared cell proliferation and differential gene expression in kidney tissues of the PKD mice and wild-type (WT) littermates.ResultsThe cystic phenotype was dominant from P18. A distinct peak in cell proliferation in polycystic kidneys during P22–P30 was closely related to late-stage cyst growth. Comparisons of gene expression profiles in kidney tissues at P22 and P30 in PKD and WT mice revealed that arginine metabolism was significantly activated; 204 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), includingArg1, an arginine metabolism–associated gene, were identified in late-stage polycystic kidneys. TheArg1-encoded protein, arginase-1 (ARG1), was predominantly expressed in macrophages in a time-dependent manner. Multiple-stage macrophage depletion verified that macrophages expressing high ARG1 levels accounted for late-stage cyst enlargement, and inhibiting ARG1 activity significantly retarded cyst growth and effectively lowered the proliferative indices in polycystic kidneys.In vitroexperiments revealed that macrophages stimulated CLEC proliferation, and that L–lactic acid, primarily generated by CLECs, significantly upregulated ARG1 expression and increased polyamine synthesis in macrophages.ConclusionsInteractions between macrophages and CLECs promote cyst growth. ARG1 is a key molecule involved in this process and is a potential therapeutic target to help delay ADPKD progression.
I believe I can do science: Self-efficacy and science achievement of Grade 9 students in South Africa
Authors: Juan Andrea , Hannan Sylvia , Namome Catherine 
Published: July 2018

An important component of an individual’s scientific literacy is a positive attitude towards science. However, emphasis is too often placed on achievement scores rather than attitude. While individuals’ relative levels of problem-solving skills, inherent aptitudes for the subject matter and teaching practices are conveyed through achievement scores, attitudes to science convey individuals’ emotional evaluation of the subject. Attitudes have a strong impact on behaviour: through either facilitating the learning process or hindering it. Furthermore, attitudes towards science reflect the culture which exists within a school, as well as the wider social context within which learning takes place. As a result, understanding attitudes is a key component of the interpretation of achievement results. We used data from 12 514 Grade 9 students in South Africa who participated in the 2015 Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study to investigate students’ self-efficacy in science. Multiple linear regression analyses were used to address the following key research questions: (1) What is the relationship between self-efficacy and science achievement for Grade 9 students in South Africa? and (2) What are the contextual factors associated with the self-efficacy of Grade 9 students in South Africa? The findings reveal a positive relationship between self-efficacy and science achievement and suggest a need to also focus on noncognitive aspects in order to improve science achievement.Significance:

The study contributes to understanding the determinants of science performance at school.
The findings highlight the importance of non-cognitive dimensions in science achievement at school.
The findings have policy implications for education programmes and teachers in relation to interventions which incorporate non-cognitive dimensions.

Spatial distribution of temporal precipitation contrasts in South Africa
Authors: Botai Christina M. , Botai Joel O. , Adeola Abiodun M. 
Published: July 2018

The focus of the present study was to investigate the spatial-temporal variability and trends of precipitation concentration across South Africa using the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) 3B42 version 7 satellite precipitation data sets spanning 1998–2015. In the analysis, the precipitation concentrationindex (PCI) was used to infer the variability of temporal precipitation contrasts and the spatial distributions at annual, seasonal and supra-seasonal timescales. The results indicate that precipitation concentration across South Africa exhibits noticeable spatial-temporal variability. In terms of PCI classification criteria,the precipitation distribution ranges from relatively uniform (mainly in the central and southern interior of South Africa) to highly irregular (especially to the northeastern and western parts of South Africa) at annual timescales. At seasonal timescales, the precipitation distribution is uniform during December–Februaryseason, moderate during March–May and September–November seasons while during the June–August season, the precipitation distribution is highly irregular. Furthermore, during the 1998–2015 period, there exists a spatial and temporal pattern of PCI trends which are generally statistically insignificant. The PCI analysis results reported in this study are essential because they provide valuable information on the longterm total variability in the precipitation records across South Africa. In particular, this study contributes towards evaluating the spatial contrasts or concentration of the different accumulated amounts of thereceived precipitation. Results from this study have important scientific and practical applications in hydrological hazard risks (floods and droughts) and soil erosion monitoring.Significance:

Precipitation concentration exhibits spatial-temporal variability.
At an annual timescale, precipitation concentration is highly irregular in most parts of the country.
Precipitation concentration distribution varies across seasons.

Published: July 2018

Burnout é definido como aquilo que deixou de funcionar por absoluta falta de energia. A Síndrome de Burnout é caracterizada pela exaustão emocional, despersonalização e baixa realização profissional. Os estudantes de medicina são um grupo de risco para o desenvolvimento desta síndrome pela pressão exercida por seu círculo social e familiar, desde a decisão de prestar vestibular para medicina até a conclusão do curso. Objetivo: Descrever a prevalência da Síndrome de Burnout em estudantes de medicina da Universidade do Estado da Bahia (UNEB) e identificar se há variáveis sociodemográficas, acadêmicas e psicossociais a ela associadas. Método: descritivo transversal, realizado com estudantes de medicina da UNEB do 1° ao 8° semestres aplicando-se um questionário para levantamento das variáveis sociodemográficas, acadêmicas e psicossociais e o MBI-SS (Maslach Burnout Inventory/ Student Survey). Utilizou-se para a análise dos dados o programa SPSS – versão 22.0, OpenEpi e Microsoft Excel 2010. Resultados: A Síndrome teve prevalência de 19,6% na amostra, 35,4% apresentavam risco elevado de desenvolver a síndrome e 26,6% baixo risco. Entre as variáveis estudadas “possuir filhos”, “possuir ocupação atual”, e “pensar em desistir do curso” tiveram associação positiva com significância estatística (p<0,05) com o desenvolvimento da Síndrome de Burnout. Conclusão: há necessidade de implantação de medidas preventivas e curativas no que diz respeito ao alto índice de exaustão emocional, e aos índices médios de descrença, o que poderá levar à diminuição do risco de desenvolvimento da Síndrome de Burnout nestes estudantes.

El método biográfico narrativo aplicado a los bienes culturales. Una experiencia inclusiva e intercultural en la GAMeC.
Authors: Fernández-Inglés Soledad , Gutiérrez-Pérez Rosario 
Published: July 2018

La narración no es solo un género literario: se encuentra en la Paleontología, la Historia, la Psicología, la Pedagogía, en el Derecho, en el discurso científico. Es algo verdaderamente amplio. Ciencia y Arte han cooperado en la experimentación del discurso narrativo sobre qué supone narrar, el lenguaje y la percepción en la capacidad de transformar y transformarse del ser humano.
La narrativa museal está entrando de lleno en algunos museos como medio de acercamiento a la obra de arte. Con detractores y defensores se abre camino de forma tímida, aunque aún no sabemos qué recorrido tendrá en el tiempo. En este ámbito trabaja desde 2007 la Galleria d’Arte Moderna e Contemporanea (GAMeC) de Bergamo, que lo ha adaptado como herramienta de los Servicios Educativos en su política de desarrollo y de inclusión social y cultural.

La creación artística danzaria: una experiencia de investigación interdisciplinaria / Artistic dance creation: one experience of interdisciplinary research
Authors: Valladares González María Guadalupe 
Published: July 2018

En este trabajo se parte de la caracterización de las relaciones que se establecen entre la investigación y la creación artística. La finalidad es contribuir a la visibilización de los procesos de creación propios de las prácticas artísticas de la danza, como forma de investigación artística y de producción de conocimientos, circulantes en la Universidad de las Artes.La investigación artística no se ordena linealmente en proceso y resultado; es parte y todo de una dinámica que está atravesando y siendo atravesada por el proceso de creación, es mediadora y mediada; es en sí misma, inter y transdisciplinar. Es preciso tenerla en cuenta desde la dinámica de su funcionamiento, de su propia práctica. Esta se re-produce, re-formula, según las demandas que la propia acción creativa exige. Es por eso que se despoja del “pre-juicio” para transformarse en performática. La práctica danzaria resignifica al conocimiento artístico en el proceso de creación. De manera que más que reproducirlo, se torna estimuladora de sujetos creativos, productores de conocimientos acerca de la danza, en su gestión artística – investigativa-profesional.

Published: July 2018

En 2015, los días 10, 17 y 20 de enero se realizó en las instalaciones de la Fundación Telefónica y de la Facultad de Bellas de Artes de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid, el taller Arte Generativo y alimentos: diseñando su tejido con Processing. El objetivo era extraer algunos de los patrones que se dan en los alimentos y en la naturaleza para generar imágenes mediante el uso de Processing, un lenguaje de programación en un entorno de desarrollo integrado que sirve habitualmente para el desarrollo de proyectos multimedia, inserto en la tecnología del software libre. El resultado, estructuras de repetición que generan un patrón, fue luego estampado en tela mediante técnicas permeográficas. El artículo tiene como objetivo mostrar los procesos de creación en la práctica artística, a través de un taller innovador por el contexto expositivo donde se realizó. La práctica puso de manifiesto cómo la creatividad dentro de un ámbito de vanguardia como ha sido la alta cocina del chef Ferran Adrià, debe adaptarse a la realidad cambiante y al desarrollo de nuevas tecnologías. En todo proceso creativo las habilidades tecnológicas específicas se combinan con las capacidades expresivas del artista. Para ello se utilizó como herramienta de creación el programa de código abierto Proccesing, cuyo avance creciente dentro de las iniciativas de software libre se hace cada día más evidente en la práctica artística y en la investigación docente.
