LANGUAGE AND THOUGHT
Authors: Gaidenko I. O. 
Published: July 2018

The article is aimed at the problem of language-thought interrelation which has always been of great interest to philosophers and linguists as the former is inconceivable without the latter; thus, language and thought are inseparable. Although the question of language-thought interconnection has been studied by many linguists, there is no generally accepted approach to the distinction of their interdependence and convergence. One approach to the problem, for instance, relies on regarding “language as thought and thought as language” (M. Müller), the other approach, which the article is focused on, consists in underlying their inequality even though they form organic unity (A. Potebnya). Scientific works of distinguished linguists about thought objectification have been investigated. The issues of language-experience and language-culture interrelation as well as their correspondence to the subject of the article have been analyzed. Relation of the first type is of primary significance since experience is fundamental to formation of knowledge and, therefore, culture as well as words that constitute language classes. Being component part of a specific language class each word possesses the meaning somehow connected with the type of experience the class describes; the name of the class is also general and applicable to each of its constituents. Accumulated knowledge and experience are shared by means of words, i.e. objectified in language units. Full objectification is only possible when words are combined together into meaningfully complete patterns, which makes language a communication tool. As communication may be of verbal and non-verbal forms, it cannot equate with language; however, human language and
SPECIAL FEATURES OF INDIVIDUAL LEARNING SYSTEMS FROM THE WORLDVIEW PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Kononenko S. A. 
Published: July 2018

In the article, it is noted that, as of today, sciences that study human learning behavior have spawned a great number of various theoretical approaches each offering its own view on how the learning process takes place, what factors and to what extent affect this process. There is, nevertheless, a consensus among scientists that different people gravitate to their own preferable individual learning styles and that educational process is more effective when teachers adapt their teaching methods and techniques to their students’ individual learning styles. Teachers have difficulty orienting themselves among a vast variety of theories and deciding which type of learning is more appropriate for each specific student or group and which method or type of teaching to use in the work with them. It is suggested that the psychological construct of “worldview” enables teachers to develop a viable approach to establishing the guidelines and criteria for making such a decision. In the article, a brief overview of the existing paradigms and theories as well as of the corresponding types of learning is provided; the conceptual foundations of modern approaches to the study of worldviews are delineated; a worldview approach to systemization of types of learning and their application based on C. Graves’s theory is put forward.

MENYAMBUT SEKOLAH RUMAH (HOMESCHOOLING) DALAM SISTEM PENDIDIKAN NASIONAL DI INDONESIA
Authors: Rasyid Harun Al 
Published: July 2018

Homeschooling practice in Indonesia has just started in 2006. There are many reasons and philosophies in the presence of home schooling, both internally such as family and students, and externally such as educational considerations. In at least, there are three types of homeschooling, they are: (1) homeschooling for pre-school children, (2) homeschooling as the substitution and complementation to formal school and (3) homeschooling as a sustainable education program. As a new category in the formal education practice in Indonesia, the presence of homeschooling should immediately be set up its connectivity model with national education system within its holistic view. It will need a comprehensively conceptual, theoretical, and philosophical consideration being the foundation of homeschooling practice so that homeschooling may run in the normative path of education. In the other hand, there is a necessity for supporting regulations, policies and action plan, which would guarantee the continuity and development of homeschooling in Indonesia. Therefore, homeschooling contributions within national education system may soon be used effectively in the efforts of promoting the intellectual life of the nation.

Novel composite sorbents based on carbon fibers decorated with ferric hydroxides – simultaneous removal of antimonate and arsenate from aqueous solutions
Authors: Simsek Esra Bilgin , Demircivi Pelin , Novak Ivan , Berek Dusan , Beker Ulker 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
The competitive adsorption of antimonate and arsenate on carbon fibers decorated with ferric hydroxide (CF-Fe) has been investigated at different pH and temperatures. Tap and drinking water samples spiked with unitary and binary solutions were subjected to kinetic tests and compared with distilled water media. As the required time for attaining the arsenate concentration permitted by law, the legal limit was found as 3 hours for drinking and tap water systems. It was shown that arsenate can be adsorbed more strongly than antimonate. Such multiple adsorption/desorption cycles showed that the CF-Fe sample had approximately 96% of the first antimonate adsorption at the seventh cycle. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses were performed in order to obtain insight into the adsorption mechanism.
Effect of inorganic salt ions on the adsorption of quinoline using coal powder
Authors: Bian Yue , Sun Hao , Luo Yunxiao , Gao Qieyuan , Li Guosheng , Wang Yongtian 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
In this study, coal powder was used as the adsorbent for quinoline. The effect of inorganic salt ions on the adsorption was explored, and the results suggest that the addition of inorganic salt ions can enhance both the removal rate and the amount of quinoline adsorbed. The removal rate and adsorbed amount of quinoline were 83.87% and 1.26 mg/g without inorganic salt ions. Under the same adsorption conditions, the removal rate and adsorbed amount of quinoline could reach 90.21% and 1.35 mg/g when Na+ was present in the solution, and 94.47% and 1.42 mg/g with the presence of Ca2+. In addition, the adsorption of quinoline using coal fitted the Freundlich isothermal adsorption model. Changes in the Gibbs free energy, entropy and heat of adsorption were all negative, indicating that the adsorption was spontaneous and exothermic. The changes in the absolute value of Gibbs free energy under both Na+ and Ca2+ were higher than that in the blank(without inorganic salt ions). The pseudo-second-order kinetic model was found to fit the adsorption kinetic data well, and the activation energy of adsorption under Na+ and Ca2+ were lower than that in the blank. These indicate that the addition of inorganic salt ions was beneficial to the adsorption process.

Published: July 2018

Introduction: The use of allogenic bone has the advantage of not producing donor area in the patient, which can decrease the morbidity. However, there is an important vascularization demand for this type of graft, which can be increased with the use of platelet concentrate. Objective: To report a case of atrophic maxilla reconstruction with particle allogenic bone associated with Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF). Case report: A female patient, who presented a maxilla with a reduced alveolar ridge and pneumatization of the maxillary sinuses, underwent surgery to lift the maxillary sinuses and reconstruct thealveolar ridge, with macro and micro particulate allogenic bone associated with fluid/injectable PRF (i-PRF), and total covering of the graft with PRF membranes, for better accommodation and graft protection. The graft was osseointegrated and able to receive the implants. Conclusion: The technique was effective, presenting several advantages in relation to reconstruction with autologous bone, such as shorter surgical time, amount of material for the graft, and less surgical trauma.

Authors: Takenoshita Naoto , Fukasawa Raita , Ogawa Yusuke , Shimizu Soichiro , Umahara Takahiko , Ishii Kenji , Shimada Hitoshi , Higuchi Makoto , Suhara Tetsuya , Hanyu Haruo 
Published: July 2018

Background:
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) has been shown to increase the risk for cognitive
decline and dementia, such as Alzheimer disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VaD). In addition to
AD and VaD, there may be a dementia subgroup associated with specific DM-related metabolic abnormalities
rather than AD pathology or cerebrovascular disease, referred to as diabetes-related dementia
(DrD).

Method:
We studied 11C-PiB and 11C-PBB3 positron emission tomography (PET) in 31 subjects with
DrD and 5 subjects with AD associated with DM to assess amyloid and tau deposits in the brain.

Results:
All subjects with AD showed both positive PiB and PBB3. However, only 12 out of 31 subjects
(39%) with DrD showed positive PiB, whereas 17 out of 21 subjects (81%) who underwent PBB3 PET
showed positive PBB3. Depending on the positivity of PiB and PBB3, we classified 21 subjects into a
negative PiB and a positive PBB3 pattern (11 cases, 52%), indicating tauopathy, a positive PiB and a
positive PBB3 pattern (6 cases, 29%), indicating AD pathology, or a negative PiB and a negative PBB3
pattern (4 cases, 19%). Among 11 subjects showing a negative PiB and a positive PBB3 pattern, there
were 2 PBB3 deposit patterns, including the medial temporal lobe only and extensive neocortex beyond
the medial temporal lobe.

Conclusion:
DrD showed variable amyloid and tau accumulation patterns in the brain. DrD may be associated
predominantly with tau pathology, in addition to AD pathology and non-amyloid/non-tau neuronal
damage due to DM-related metabolic abnormalities.

Authors: Gurusamy Murugaboopathi , Abdul Jainul Fathima 
Published: July 2018

Background:
Dengue Fever is a major threatening global health issue caused by a
mosquito-borne pathogen. Even though some anti-viral drugs are now available to reduce the disease
severity. Still, there is a need of better drug compound to combat with dengue fever. The NS2B/NS3
protease is a major therapeutic drug target for Insilco drug discovery.

Materials & Methods:
Previously, we have performed a pharmacophore features based virtual
screening studies, which has led to the identification of ZINC92615064 compound as a potent
NS2B/NS3 protease inhibitor and demonstrated its potential to act as anti-dengue drug-like compound
using computational approaches. In this present study, the identified lead compound ZINC92615064
has been made to undergo scaffold hopping based novel library generation, and the resulted novel
library of compounds has been virtually screened on to NS2B/NS3 protease towards identifying novel
proprietary scaffold of compound which is acting as a potent inhibitor for the given drug target of
NS2B/NS3.

Result & Conclusion:
A total of 16,847 novel designed compounds library was generated using the
scaffold hopping technology based on the structure of the lead compound ZINC92615064. Out of
which, compound design no. 3718 has shown the best binding potential with a predicted IC50 value
of 417.13 nM along with a permissible range of ADMET properties based on its descriptor values.

dynamic simulation study to further validate this complex thermodynamic stability, along with the
aim to reveal the underlying molecular level interactions and potential mode of action.
Renin–Angiotensin–Aldosterone System Gene Polymorphisms and Type 2 Diabetic Nephropathy in Asian Populations: An Updated Meta-analysis
Authors: Ahmad Norfazilah , Jamal Rahman , Shah Shamsul Azhar , Gafor Abdul Halim Abdul , Murad Nor Azian Abdul 
Published: July 2018

Background:The association of polymorphisms in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system candidate genes, namely Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) Insertion/Deletion (I/D), Angiotensinogen (AGT) M235T and Angiotensin II Receptor Type 1 (AGTR1) A1166C with Diabetic Nephropathy (DN) has been studied for decades.Objective:This meta-analysis aimed to assess the updated pooled effects of these polymorphisms with DN among Asian populations with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods:The PubMed electronic database was searched without duration filter until August 2017 and the reference list of eligible studies was screened. The association of each polymorphism with DN was examined using odds ratio and its 95% confidence interval based on dominant, recessive and allele models. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on region, DN definition and DM duration.Results:In the main analysis, the ACE I/D (all models) and AGTR1 A1166C (dominant model) showed a significant association with DN. The main analysis of the AGT M235T polymorphism did not yield significant findings. There were significant subgroup differences and indication of significantly higher odds for DN in terms of DM duration (≥10 years) for ACE I/D (all models), AGT M235T (recessive and allele models) and AGTR1 A1166C (recessive model). Significant subgroup differences were also observed for DN definition (advanced DN group) and region (South Asia) for AGTR1 A1166C (recessive model).Conclusion:In the Asian populations, ACE I/D and AGTR1 A1166C may contribute to DN susceptibility in patients with T2DM by different genetic models. However, the role of AGT M235T needs to be further evaluated.
Prediction of the Omp16 Epitopes for the Development of an Epitope-based Vaccine Against Brucellosis
Authors: Rezaei Marzieh , Rabbani-khorasgani Mohammad , Zarkesh-Esfahani Sayyed Hamid , Emamzadeh Rahman , Abtahi Hamid 
Published: July 2018

Background:Brucellosis is an infectious disease caused by Brucella bacteria that cause disease in animals and humans. Brucellosis is one of the most common zoonotic diseases transmitted from animals-to-human through direct contact with infected animals and also consumption of unpasteurized dairy products. Due to the wide incidence of brucellosis in Iran and economical costs in industrial animal husbandry, Vaccination is the best way to prevent this disease. All of the available commercial vaccines against brucellosis are derived from live attenuated strains of Brucella but because of the disadvantage of live attenuated vaccines, protective subunit vaccine against Brucella may be a good candidate for the production of new recombinant vaccines based on Brucella Outer Membrane Protein (OMP) antigens. In the present study, comprehensive bioinformatics analysis has been conducted on prediction software to predict T and B cell epitopes, the secondary and tertiary structures and antigenicity of Omp16 antigen and the validation of used software confirmed by experimental results.Conclusion:The final epitope prediction results have proposed that the three epitopes were predicted for the Omp16 protein with antigenicity ability. We hypothesized that these epitopes likely have the protective capacity to stimulate both the B-cell and T-cell mediated immune responses and so may be effective as an immunogenic candidate for the development of an epitope-based vaccine against brucellosis.
