Published: June 2019

Non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas are common canine cancers with variable demographic and clinical presentations. Their pathological characterization and treatment lag far behind those of humans. We describe consecutive lymphoma patients detected over a one-year period at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). Of 4,512 dogs: 220 (4.9%) had a cancer diagnosis, of which 27 (0.6%) had lymphoma (12% of cancer patients). We found an association with Miniature Schnauzers, which represented 18.5% (5/27) of lymphoma patients, but it was only 6.4% (288/4,512) of the dogs studied in this time period (p < 0.011). Miniature Schnauzers and mongrels together constituted nearly half of lymphoma cases. Mean age at diagnosis was 7.5 years (3-14), with a female to male ratio of 1.7:1. We found no correlation between lymphoma and castration status. Most patients presented nodal involvement (80%), were in advanced stages III/IV (90%) and had B-cell versus T-cell tumors (64%/36%). Only two histopathological patterns were seen, both with diffuse nodal-replacement by large immunoblast and/or centroblast-like cells; one having numerous tingible-body macrophages which are suggestive of a high proliferative rate. Chemotherapy was given to 15 patients (65%) with an overall response of 73% (3 complete responses/8 partial responses) and a mean overall survival of 219 days (4-586; SD±185). One cutaneous lymphoma-patient achieved partial response (PR) with lomustine/prednisone, and treatment was still ongoing at 548 days. Earlier diagnosis, better lymphoma subtype distinction, and specific curative treatments are needed.
Análisis comparativo entre el doctorado profesional y de investigación en México
Authors: Patiño-Salceda Josefina 
Published: June 2019

Se analiza la evaluación de los doctorados en el Programa Nacional de Posgrados de Calidad (PNPC) para identificar bajo qué criterios se justifica el doctorado profesional, a través de su comparación con el doctorado de investigación. A partir de la revisión documental se identifican dos tendencias sobre la definición de la educación doctoral: una orientada hacia la armonización y otra hacia la diversificación de doctorados. El PNPC se ubica en esta última tendencia, al proponer un doctorado profesional que se distingue del de investigación por valorar el aprendizaje adquirido tanto en la academia como en el trabajo; de esta manera se impulsa la investigación aplicada para el desarrollo de las profesiones y la vinculación de los graduados con el sector productivo.
Freedom and Access to Housing: Three Conceptions
Authors: Skolnik Terry 
Published: June 2019

This article argues that our current understanding of the relationship between access to housing and liberty (or freedom) is limited. It contends that judicial decisions and existing legal theory are predominantly concerned with the connection between housing and the two conceptions of liberty famously advanced by Isaiah Berlin: positive liberty and negative liberty. The notion of positive freedom conceptualizes freedom as self-mastery, whereas negative liberty portrays freedom as non-interference.
The central premise of this article is that the republican theory of freedom (or republicanism) provides new insight into the importance of access to housing in protecting liberty, most notably in contexts where the state regulates public property, such as in Canada and the United States. The republican theory of freedom defines liberty as non-domination, meaning the absence of others’ power to interfere with an individual’s life and actions. This article argues that we develop a more well-rounded grasp of the value of access to housing by understanding its role in protecting individuals against domination.
This article concludes by setting out the four concrete ways that housing reduces domination and safeguards individual freedom in contexts where the state regulates public property. By combining the respective insights of positive liberty, negative liberty, and republican liberty, this article ultimately provides a more robust understanding of the importance of housing in protecting freedom.
Jóvenes padres costarricenses: cambios y continuidades de la masculinidad tradicional
Authors: Fonseca-Vindas Carolina 
Published: June 2019

Este artículo surge para evidenciar la estrecha relación entre la construcción de las masculinidades y las formas de vivir y ejercer la paternidad. Vínculo que se investigó con profundidad en la tesis denominada «Ejercicio y concepción de la paternidad en dos grupos de jóvenes padres costarricenses: Cambios y permanencias de los modelos de masculinidad tradicional», cuyos resultados son muy sugerentes para comprender el porqué los hombres asumen su paternidad de determinada manera, cómo influye eso en su vida diaria y emocionalidad y, sin duda, el papel de la sociedad patriarcal en sus aprendizajes, creencias y comportamientos. Por lo tanto, parte de la importancia de esta investigación radica en aportar líneas e insumos a estudios e intervenciones venideras, sobre el trabajo con padres jóvenes y la relación con la masculinidad dominante.
Aunado a la urgencia de repensar la «paternidad responsable» que se concibe a nivel institucional-gubernamental, desde un nuevo paradigma enfocado en el involucramiento afectivo y comprometido en las labores de cuido y crianza.
Esto lleva a cuestionarse el enfoque e impacto de la Ley de Paternidad Responsable, la Ley de Pensiones Alimenticias y el Código de Familia, mediante un análisis integral de su contenido, con conocimiento de cuál ha sido el manejo jurídico de dichas leyes en la realidad de muchos padres. Esta investigación pone sobre la balanza múltiples aspectos que constituyen la paternidad de los jóvenes entrevistados y, con esto, una rigurosa comprensión de sus masculinidades y la forma en que han sido consolidadas.
Drug Utilization Pattern by Using WHO Core Prescribing Indicators in Orthopedics and Obstetrics / Gynecology Departments of a Tertiary Care Hospital
Authors: Karki Naresh , Joshi Ruban Raj , Shrestha Buddhi Kumar , Prasad Pravin 
Published: June 2019

Introduction: Drug utilization research is an important tool to facilitate rational use of drugs. In low income countries irrational use of drugs is a common problem like overuse of drugs and inappropriate use of antibiotics, leading to poor treatment outcome and increased burden of treatment. This study was conducted to provide understanding of drug utilization pattern by using WHO Core Prescribing Indicator. Methods: This study was conducted in Orthopedics and Obstetrics / Gynecology departments. Patients visiting these Out Patient Departments with at least one drug on prescription form were included in the study. Further, information related to WHO Core Prescribing Indicators were collected in pre-designed proforma. Results: Average number of drugs prescribed per prescription was 2.6. Means of number of drugs prescribed in Orthopedics and Obstetrics / Gynecology departments were 2.9 and 2.3 respectively (p < 0.001). Drugs prescribed in generic name and from essential drug list was 41.4% and 34.3% respectively. Prescription forms with generic name in Orthopedics department were significantly more compared to Obstetrics / Gynecology department (p = 0.00002). However, there was an increased tendency to prescribe drugs from essential drug list in Obstetrics / Gynecology department compared to Orthopedics department (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Drugs were prescribed by generic name and from essential drug list, but this was not sufficient to meet the ideal values of WHO Core Prescribing Indicator. Therefore, prioritization on prescribing drugs by generic name and from essential drug list by respective departments to achieve the standards of WHO needs to be encouraged.
Disaggregated Capital Expenditures
Authors: Beyer Brooke D. , Herrmann Donald R. , Rapley Eric T. 
Published: June 2019

SYNOPSIS
Financial analysts and accounting regulators encourage companies to disclose the disaggregation of total capital expenditures (CAPX) into the portion for sustaining current performance (maintenance CAPX [MCAPX]) and the portion for pursuing additional opportunities (growth CAPX [GCAPX]). Using a hand-collected sample of voluntary disclosures, we document that traditional estimates of disaggregated CAPX components, using currently required financial statement disclosures, are inadequate proxies for actual (disclosed) values of MCAPX and GCAPX. Specifically, we find that estimation errors for disaggregated variables are associated with future financial performance (i.e., changes in sales and earnings), suggesting that disaggregated disclosure information is potentially useful in forecasting. We also find that these estimation errors are associated with analyst forecast revisions of sales and earnings per share, consistent with analysts incorporating disaggregated CAPX information into their forecasts. Our results provide evidence that disaggregated CAPX disclosures are superior to currently required aggregate CAPX disclosure for forecasting firms' financial performance.

Published: June 2019

OBJECTIVE
We aimed to determine optimal blood pressure (BP) thresholds for minimizing coronary artery disease (CAD) risk in people with childhood-onset type 1 diabetes.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
The Pittsburgh Epidemiology of Diabetes Complications (EDC) Study participants without known CAD at baseline (n = 605) were included and followed for 25 years. The associations of time-weighted BP measures (systolic BP [SBP], diastolic BP [DBP], and mean arterial pressure) with incident CAD were examined by using Cox models. Areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) were summarized by different cut points of time-weighted BPs. Risk stratification analyses were then performed on the basis of BP (&lt;120/80 vs. ≥120/80 mmHg) and HbA1c (&lt;8% vs. ≥8%).

RESULTS
Baseline mean age was 27 years. Half of the cohort were women and 98% were white. A dose-gradient association was observed for categorized time-weighted BPs and CAD. According to AUC, the optimal cut point for SBP was 120 mmHg and for DBP was 80 mmHg. BP ≥120/80 mmHg was associated with a 1.9 times (95% CI 1.4, 2.6) greater risk of developing CAD than that for BP &lt;120/80 mmHg. Participants with good control of both BP and HbA1c had BP &lt;120/80 mmHg and HbA1c &lt;8%. Those with only high BP (hazard ratio [HR] 2.0 [95% CI 1.1, 3.9]) carried a similar risk of developing CAD as those with only high HbA1c (HR 1.6 [95% CI 0.97, 2.8]).

CONCLUSIONS
The optimal BP threshold associated with minimal CAD risk is 120/80 mmHg in young adults with childhood-onset type 1 diabetes.

Published: June 2019

The article deals with the analysis of the existing methods of investigating the antioxidant activity of plants’ origin and the expediency of measuring oxidation-reduction potential for this purpose.The integral AOA of alcohol extracts Urtica dioica, Trifolium pretense, Chelidonium majus, Hippophae rhamnoides has been determined by potentiometric method using the mediator system. It was established that the leaves of sea – buckthorn are characterised by the highest antioxidant activity (2.05 ± 0.1 mg AA / ml). The АОА of plants Urtica dioica, Chelidonium majus, that were growing along the transport zone is higher by 23,1-27,9% comparing with the plants collected from environmentally friendly area. It was found out that the plants of Hippophae rhamnoides L. coriander were adapted to oil pollution, as evidenced by the absence of a significant difference between AOA of plants collected from environmentally friendly area comparing with the plants that were growing on the soil polluted with petroleum products.
Examining the debt implications of the Belt and Road Initiative from a policy perspective
Authors: Hurley1 John , Morris2 Scott , Portelance3 Gailyn 
Published: June 2019

China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) hopes to deliver trillions of dollars in infrastructure financing to Asia, Europe, and Africa. If the initiative follows Chinese practices to date for infrastructure financing, which often entail lending to sovereign borrowers, then BRI raises the risk of debt distress in some borrower countries. This paper assesses the likelihood of debt problems in the 68 countries identified as potential BRI borrowers. We conclude that eight countries are at particular risk of debt distress based on an identified pipeline of project lending associated with BRI.Because this indebtedness also suggests a higher concentration in debt owed to official and quasi-official Chinese creditors, we examine Chinese policies and practices related to sustainable financing and the management of debt problems in borrower countries. Based on this evidence, we offer recommendations to improve Chinese policy in these areas. The recommendations are offered to Chinese policymakers directly, as well as to BRI’s bilateral and multilateral partners, including the IMF and World Bank.

Truth Matters: Living in Dangerous Times - Aquinas on the Virtue of Truth-Telling
Authors: Ryan Fainché 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
Current political and social climate seems to have as a presupposition the view that truth-telling has a merely instrumental value. This paper will explore Thomas Aquinas’ writing on truth and truth-telling, arguing that truth-telling is an intrinsic good, a human virtue and a component of human flourishing. In Aquinas’ view the virtue of truth-telling is a satellite virtue within the cardinal virtue of justice, and as such imperative for the flourishing of human society.
In Defense of Aristotle: Thomas Aquinas on the Identity of the Living Body and the Corpse of Christ
Authors: Vijgen Jörgen 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
The so-called. ‘Christianization’ of Aristotle in the Middle Ages and in particular by Thomas Aquinas remains a vexed debate. A case by case study seems to be a fruitful approach. One of these cases concerns Aristotle’s definition of the soul in De anima II, 1(412b10-25). Applying this philosophical claim to the theological question Utrum Christus fuerit homo in triduo mortis seems to be not without difficulty, as St. Thomas’ frequent treatments of this question show. In this paper I analyze these texts and show how Aquinas on multiple occasions follows De anima II, 1 and similar texts of Aristotle and defends a robust Aristotelian position, even in light of the significance of his recovery of Greek Church Fathers.

Published: June 2019

Abstract
The ant fauna from the Chaharmahal va Bakhtiari Province of Iran was surveyed. As a result, a total of 28 ant species belonging to 11 genera of Formicidae were collected and identified. Species status is proposed for Messor barbarus subsp. mediosanguineus Donisthorpe, 1946, the species status of Messor platyceras Crawley, 1920 is restored with Messor platyceras var. rubella Crawley, 1920 as a new synonym of the nominotypical form, and Camponotus oasium ninivae Pisarski, 1971 is removed from synonyms of Camponotus oasium Forel, 1890. The genera Messor Forel, 1890, with seven species and Cataglyphis Förster, 1850 with six species, have the highest species richness. Messor mediosanguineus Donisthorpe, 1946, Pheidole koshewnikovi Ruzsky, 1905 and Camponotus oasium ninivae Pisarski, 1971 were recorded in Iran for the first time.
Chemosensory response of the Phaseolus vulgaris L. (Fabaceae) weevil (Bruchus chinensis Linnaeus, 1758 (Coleoptera: Bruchidae)) to Dioscorea sansibarensis Pax. (Dioscoreaceae) bulbil essential oil

Published: June 2019

Abstract
Dioscorea sansibarensis bulbils are well known for their toxicity and medicinal applications. In this study, the attraction and mortality of the Phaseolus vulgaris weevil (Bruchus chinensis) caused by Dioscorea sansibarensis bulbil oil was examined in a Completely Randomized Design experiment using a Y-tube olfactometer on a laboratory bench. Statistical analysis at P < 0.05 showed 10 µL had an attraction of 42.67%. In the case of mortality, the results showed that Phaseolus vulgaris seeds treated with 40 µL of the bulbil oil had a harmonic mean of 55.8% mortality of the weevil population, which was higher than with 10 µL of Actellic 50 EC. GC-MS analysis identified 17 compounds in the bulbil oil, the main constituents of which were 2- pentanone, 4-hydroxy-4-methyl- (17.8%), phenol, 4-ethyl- (11.41%), hexadecanoic acid, methyl ester (11.05%), phenol (7.35%), 9-octadecenoic acid, (E)- (7.2%) and phenol, 4-ethyl-2-methoxy- (7.14%). Attraction by bulbil oil may have been due to the presence of phenolic compounds, and mortality may have been due to hexadecanoic acid, methyl ester and 9-octadecenoic acid, (E)-. Attractants are used for the surveillance and detection of an infestation in stored products. The added advantage of the bulbil oil to cause mortality makes Dioscorea sansibarensis bulbil oil useful in the formulation of a botanical pesticide in stored pest management.
Slurry shield tunneling in soft ground. Comparison between field data and 3D numerical simulation
Authors: Beghoul Mohammed , Demagh Rafik 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
In urban areas, the control of ground surface settlement is an important issue during shield tunnel-boring machine (TBM) tunneling. These ground movements are affected by many machine control parameters. In this article, a finite difference (FD) model is developed using Itasca FLAC-3D to numerically simulate the whole process of shield TBM tunneling. The model simulates important components of the mechanized excavation process including slurry pressure on the excavation face, shield conicity, installation of segmental lining, grout injection in the annular void, and grout consolidation. The analysis results from the proposed method are compared and discussed in terms of ground movements (both vertical and horizontal) with field measurements data. The results reveal that the proposed 3D simulation is sufficient and can reasonably reproduce all the operations achieved by the TBM. In fact, the results show that the TBM parameters can be controlled to have acceptable levels of surface settlement. In particular, it seems that moderate face pressure can reduce ground movement significantly and, most importantly, can prevent the occurrence of face-expected instability when the shield crosses very weak soil layers. The shield conicity has also an important effect on ground surface settlement, which can be partly compensated by the grout pressure during tail grouting. Finally, the injection pressure at the rear of the shield significantly reduces the vertical displacements at the crown of the tunnel and, therefore, reduces the settlement at the ground surface.

A ALIENAÇÃO PARENTAL DECORRENTE DO ROMPIMENTO DO VÍNCULO CONJUGAL
Authors: José Daud Fuad 
Published: June 2019

O presente trabalho tem o escopo de explorar o tema da alienação parental a partir do rompimento do vínculo conjugal. Busca-se desenvolver esta matéria com base na legislação, doutrina e jurisprudência, levando em conta as consequências da ruptura do ví­nculo afetivo de modo pouco amistoso que por ocasião da guarda, seja ela unilateral ou compartilhada, atinge o menor sob o poder familiar durante sua permanência com um dos genitores. Daí­ a prática do alienador que provoca no menor rejeição contra o alienado como um gesto vingativo, promovendo ao filho os efeitos da síndrome da alienação parental. A discussão do caso concreto exige quase sempre a participação do Judiciário na decisão desse embate, especialmente na busca de inibir a prática abusiva e, ao mesmo tempo, proporcionar a possibilidade de uma reestruturação familiar tendo em conta o melhor interesse do menor. Conclui-se que, apesar das dificuldades de se apurar a síndrome da alienação parental, torna-se importante o aprofundamento do estudo da matéria pelos juristas e juí­zes, além de outros profissionais como psicólogos, pedagogos e assistentes sociais.
