Los rankings globales de universidades y su función disciplinaria
Authors: Crisci Jorge Víctor , Apodaca María José 
Published: April 2019

En la última década los rankings de universidades se han transformado en una fuerza importante con gran influencia en las políticas universitarias locales y globales. Mientras que en algunos países se han llevado a cabo rankings nacionales desde el siglo pasado, los rankings globales de universidades son un fenómeno reciente que tomó fuerza a principios del siglo XXI. Los rankings son vistos como una forma cuantitativa de dar cuenta de responsabilidades y obligaciones institucionales, y la transparencia y calidad de la administración. Hoy día existen, al menos, diez rankings globales de universidades, los cuatro más conocidos son: Academic Ranking of World Universities, SCImago Institutions Rankings, QS World University Rankings, and World University Ranking. Las metodologías de estos rankings son sumariamente presentadas y se discute qué miden y qué no miden. Dos de los más importantes indicadores de todos los rankings (el prestigio y el uso de índices de citas como medida de la calidad de la producción científica) son críticamente discutidos. Se aplica el concepto de disciplina de Foucault para comprender cómo los rankings implícitamente favorecen un cierto modelo de organización de estudios superiores.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To compare use of a vessel-sealing device (VSD) versus conventional hemostatic techniques in dogs undergoing thyroidectomy because of suspected thyroid carcinoma.

DESIGN
Retrospective cohort study.

ANIMALS
42 client-owned dogs undergoing thyroidectomy because of suspected thyroid carcinoma.

PROCEDURES
Medical records of dogs treated at 4 referral centers from 2010 through 2016 were reviewed, and information was obtained on patient signalment, surgical technique, tumor-specific factors, and operative duration. Postoperative hospitalization time and complications were compared between dogs grouped on the basis of hemostatic technique.

RESULTS
Thyroidectomy was performed with a VSD in 23 dogs and with conventional hemostatic techniques (ie, ligatures, hemoclips, or electrocautery) in 19 dogs. Hemostatic technique (ie, use of a VSD vs conventional hemostatic techniques) was the only factor significantly associated with operative duration (median time, 28 vs 41 minutes). Postoperative hospitalization times and complication rates did not differ between groups.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE
Results suggested that use of a VSD, rather than conventional hemostatic techniques, in dogs undergoing thyroidectomy because of suspected thyroid carcinoma resulted in shorter operative times without significantly affecting complication rates or postoperative hospitalization times.
From Sign Language to Spoken Language? A New Discourse of Language Development in Deaf Children
Authors: Tomaszewski Piotr , Krzysztofiak Piotr , Moroń Ewelina 
Published: April 2019

AbstractThe aim of this paper is to show shifts in the language development of deaf and hard of hearing children over the last 30 years. The paper presents an overview of Western and Polish studies on education and language development in deaf children in terms of psycholinguistics. Perceptions of the perceptual and cognitive capabilities of such children must be subject to revision and continual methodological reflection due to rapidly changing variables, such as technological progress, social and cultural conditions of primary socialization and the aims of deaf education. Now that an increasing number of deaf children undergo cochlear implantation, and digital hearing aids can provide 70-75 dB of gain, thus enabling the children to spontaneously develop speech, many of them function in a bimodal environment of the sign and the speech. However, they perform at different levels of educational and developmental success. This paper elucidates the issues of language flexibility in and heterogenization of children using hearing aids or implants on a daily basis.

Which Crimes Make the News? An Analysis of Discursive Matrices Permeating Brazilian Investigative Reporting
Authors: Melo Seane Alves , Roxo Marco Antonio 
Published: April 2019

In this paper, we try to identify the discursive matrices that permeate the notion of "investigative journalism" in Brazil, from the military dictatorship until the present day, in order to observe displacements of meaning in the act of naming the practice. Our research brought to light two principal approaches to investigative reporting, which we reconstitute in this paper: a police matrix, predominant through to the dictatorial period, which was characterized by the exploration of popular themes and emphasized the courage of journalists; and a political matrix characterized by the predominance of investigations of corruption, as influenced by institutions like the Brazilian Investigative Journalism Association (Abraji), dedicated to the growing professionalization of journalism. Neste artigo tentamos identificar matrizes discursivas que perpassam a noção de “jornalismo investigativo” no Brasil, desde o período de ditadura militar até os dias atuais, para observar deslocamentos de sentido nos atos de nomeação da prática. Assim, tentamos reconstituir duas abordagens do investigativo: uma matriz policial, predominante até o período ditatorial, que se caracterizava pela exploração de temáticas populares e enfatizava a coragem dos jornalistas; e uma matriz política, caracterizada pela predominância de investigações de corrupção e pela atuação de instituições como a Associação Brasileira de Jornalismo Investigativo (Abraji), dedicadas à crescente profissionalização do jornalismo.En este artículo buscamos identificar matrices discursivas que atravesan la noción de "periodismo investigativo" en Brasil, desde el período de dictadura militar hasta los días actuales, para observar desplazamientos de sentido en los actos de nombramiento de la práctica. De esa manera, intentamos reconstituir dos enfoques del investigador: una matriz policial, predominante hasta el período dictatorial, que se caracterizaba por la explotación de temáticas populares y enfatizaba el coraje de los periodistas; y una matriz política, caracterizada por el predominio de investigaciones acerca de corrupción y por la actuación de instituciones como Associação Brasileira de Jornalismo Investigativo(Abraji), dedicadas a la creciente profesionalización del periodismo.
A convergência tecnológica e novo jornalista
Authors: Renault David 
Published: April 2019

A partir da década de 1990, os meios de comunicação brasileiros iniciaram um processo de transformação que ainda está em andamento, na esteira dos avanços tecnológicos que permitiram uma ampla convergência das mídias e que um mesmo grupo jornalístico ofereça produtos diversos em várias plataformas digitais. Essas transformações atingiram profundamente as rotinas das redações jornalísticas e seus profissionais, de quem se espera cada vez mais agilidade para atender às demandas desses novos tempos. Este trabalho procura mostrar como a nova realidade atinge a rotina das redações e os jornalistas da sucursal de Brasília de quatro dos principais grupos que controlam jornais impressos no país: O Estado de S. Paulo, Folha de S. Paulo, Valor Econômico e O Globo.

Life Force LLC, RPE products were studied on irrigated dark chestnut soils of the Saratov Transvolga region. The objects of the studies were Chantenay carrot variety and products, containing humic acids, as well as macro (nitrogen), meso (calcium, magnesium and trace elements). The purpose of the research is to determine the most effective combinations of humic acid salts and chelated micronutrient fertilizers that provide a substantial increase in the yield of carrots. It is established that spraying carrots with a solution of Reasil® micro Hydro Mix increased the harvest of standard root crops by 1.85 т/ha for an average of three years (by 7% to the control). When using K- Humate -Na with micronutrients the yield increased by 5.51 t/ha (by 20% to the control). The maximum productivity of carrot within our experiments was obtained with the double application of Reasil® Carb-N-Humic along with K-Humate -Na with micronutrients (35.88 t / ha). Similar results (35.69 t / ha) were obtained when Reasil Ca-Mg-B Animo was used along with K- Humate -Na with micronutrients. The growth of carrots and the formation of the crop were significantly influenced by the weather conditions of vegetation season. The studied products had a positive effect on the output of standard root crops, the content of sugars, vitamin A and nutrients. The content of nitrate nitrogen in all variants of the experiments was almost the same and about 4 times lower than the maximal permissible concentration (MPC). The removal of macronutrients from the soil with the carrot yield increased under the influence of microelement fertilizers.

Published: April 2019

Los siliconomas, o granulomas por silicona, representan una reacción inflamatoria crónica y natural del huésped para frenar una sustancia extraña, en este caso, la silicona. Corresponden a una de las posibles complicaciones después de la rotura o fuga de gel de silicona desde implantes mamarios. Es de creciente importancia después de la problemática desencadenada con los implantes mamarios Poli Implant Prothése® (PIP), ya que la frecuencia de rotura es mayor que con las prótesis de otras fábricas, y llegaron a afectar más de 300.000 mujeres en 65 países diferentes. Se presenta el caso de una mujer de 50 años con historia de mamoplastia de aumento con implantes de gel de silicona de marca PIP, que cursó con ptosis mamaria, lipodistrofias localizadas y una masa axilar. Los hallazgos histopatológicos junto con la información clínica permitieron hacer un diagnóstico de siliconoma, resultado de la migración de silicona a partir de un implante de marca PIP con rotura extracapsular.

The Usage of Chitosan from Shrimp Waste as Natural Preservative for Fish Cilok (Traditional Food in Indonesia)
Authors: Jayawardana H.B.A , Afandi Ahmad 
Published: April 2019

<p><em>Cilok </em>is one of the traditional food in Indonesia. <em>Cilok</em> is a popular treat among Indonesians due to its good taste and cheap price. To make it last longer, <em>cilok</em> is sometimes added with preservative. However, such attempt will endanger consumers if dangerous preservatives are used, such as formaldehyde and borax. Their usage in food preservation may negatively impact consumers’ health. The aim of this research was to develop an alternative, natural preservative for fish <em>cilok</em>. The preservative would be chitosan. The method used is an experiment that is by making a chitosan solution from the shrimp skin waste. In the experiment, chitosan was extracted from shrimp waste. A 1,5% chitosan concentrate was used. Its preservation potency was tested by giving three treatments towards fish <em>cilok</em>: fish <em>cilok</em> with 1,5% chitosan coating; fish <em>cilok</em> mixed with 1,5% chitosan solution and fish <em>cilok</em> without chitosan. The three treatments were observed and an organoleptic test was performed according to the preservation time in a room temperature on Day 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The parameters tested during the experiment were taste, color, odor and texture of fish <em>cilok</em>. The research results showed that fish <em>cilok</em> coated with 1,5% chitosan solution lasted longer than fish <em>cilok</em> without or added with chitosan.</p><p><em> </em></p><p><strong>Keywords</strong>: <em>chitosan</em>, <em>natural</em> <em>preservative</em>, <em>fish</em> <em>cilok</em></p>
An Evaluation on the Flexural Strength of Heat Cure Polymethyl methacrylate Denture Base Resin with and without Reinforcement of Polyethylene Fiber
Authors: Pathak Binita , Mathema S. , Sharma R. 
Published: April 2019

Introduction: Polymethyl methacrylate as denture base material is not ideal in many aspects. The primary problem is its poor strength characteristics, including low impact and flexural strength. The fatigue failure occurs when the denture base deforms repeatedly through occlusal forces, hence dentures tend to break during usage in due course of time. The aim of this study was to measure and compare the flexural strength of heat cure Polymethyl methacrylate denture base resin with and without reinforcement of polyethylene fiber.
Method: A total of 52 specimens (maxillary complete denture) were divided into 2 groups (n=26); Group A(Control): Dentures without reinforcement, Group B: Dentures reinforced with Polyethylene fiber. All specimens were subjected to three-point bending test in UTM. A flexural load was applied to each maxillary complete denture at a speed of 5mm/min until fracture and the flexural load required to break specimen was recorded.
Results: The mean values and standard deviation of each test specimen group was calculated and statistical analysis of obtained values was done using ANOVA. Mean flexural strength for Group A was 142.66±29.95 MPa and Group B was 218.88±29.96 MPa. Group comparison showed a statistically significant difference (p<0.001) between group A and B. This suggested that flexural strength for specimens reinforced with Polyethylene fibers was significantly higher than specimens without reinforcement.
Conclusion: Reinforcement of heat cure polymethyl methacylate denture base resin with polyethylene fiber resulted in significant increase in flexural strength.

Published: April 2019

Introduction: Selection of anterior teeth for the fabrication of artificial denture during Prosthodontic rehabilitation is a complex process. Different authors have suggested various methods, however no single method can be used reliably to select artificial teeth. This study aims to assess dimensional relationship of maxillary anterior teeth with inter hamular distance which may assist in the artificial teeth selection.
Materials and methods: This clinical study was carried out on 95dentate subjects meeting the inclusion criteria. Prior to impression making, hamular notch was located precisely with T-burnisher and was marked with indelible pencil. Impression of maxillary arch was made using irreversible hydrocolloid impression material and casts were poured using Type III dental stone. Measurements were made directly on the cast using digital vernier caliper. The contact point widths of maxillary right and left maxillary central incisors, lateral incisors and canines were measured. The distance between the right and left hamular notch was measured. The sum of contact point widths of all maxillary anterior teeth was calculated. All the data were recorded and statistically analyzed.
Result: There is a positive correlation between combined width of maxillary anterior teeth and inter-hamular notch distance with Pearson’s correlation coefficient (r) 0.217 and p value 0.035 which is statistically significant.
Conclusions: There is significant correlation between combined width of maxillary anterior teeth and distance between right and left hamular notch. This correlation is valuable and practicable in estimating the six maxillary anterior teeth width.
