Published: December 2017

ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) has been agreed by the ASEAN leaders in 2003 as one mechanism to increase the social economic welfare of the people in ASEAN countries. Whilst it is no doubt the formation of AEC will give many benefits to ASEAN countries, there will be also negative impacts of the AEC. This paper aimed at analysing the implication and challenges of the formation of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) toward Indonesian economy with particular attention to agricultural sector and the micro and small-medium enterprises (SMEs) development. The paper argues inter alia that the formation of AEC will give benefit to ASEAN countries if and only if the ASEAN community has one voice in socio-economic and policial commitment and coordination. The economic sectors that need further greater improvement toward the success of the formation are agricultural sector and the micro, small and medium enterprises. Thus, much remain to be done by ASEAN countries in general and in Indonesia in particular toward the success of .the formation of AEC.

Published: December 2017

This study aims to observe the development of farmer institutions and productivity in the aspects of sustainable development. This research was conducted in Karawang regency and Indramayu for 3 months between the months of May to July 2010. Research findings show the establishment of mutual trust. The trust is the result of interactions involving farmer productivity and their community. In these communities may contain contradictions in term of social competition, ego-sectoral without presenting technological innovation. Farmer institutions and productivity in the aspects of sustainable development usually cover economic institutional (E), Sharia Compliance (C), Cultural and Environment (B) and Government Policies (K). Rural communities have a strong social capital. Several indicators of social capital in improving of natural resources is to strengthen solidarity, social management, networking, social structure and the local community cooperativeness. Instead of social capital, the economic development is more influenced by society's ability to allocate natural resources, human capital and spiritual capital (like good moral values and ethics). However, social capital, human capital and the spiritual capital will productively have mutual trust, mutual respect and mutual benefit which are more extensive.

Herramientas ofimáticas y su relación con el aprendizaje de contabilidad en los estudiantes de educación secundaria
Authors: Orama López Karina Gabriela 
Published: December 2017

La presente investigación nace ante la necesidad de que los estudiantes aprendan desde su vida secundaria a manejar la contabilidad computarizada ya que la mayoría de docentes utilizan el típico rayado contable en su cuaderno y las clases se tornan aburridas y poco participativas. Esta investigación se ha profundizado sobre el uso de Microsoft Excel y su relación con el aprendizaje de la asignatura de contabilidad para los estudiantes del bachillerato general unificado ya que es de profunda importancia que ellos comiencen a aprender sobre el mundo contable a corta edad para que cuando sean profesionales, se puedan destacar y no se les haga nuevo ver contabilidad en la computadora, ya que nuestro país exige personas destacadas que sepan hacer bien su trabajo. La calidad de un buen rendimiento académico se compone de una buena enseñanza impartida por el docente y un buen nivel de desempeño del discente. Esperando que este aporte sirva de ayuda como un puente entre la enseñanza y el aprendizaje dentro del aula y que así se favorezca para cambiar la metodología ambigua de muchos de los docentes de contabilidad.

Published: December 2017

Background There is currently lack of knowledge about survival trend analysis of thalassemia patients. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to assess 5-, 10-, 20-, and 30-year survival of thalassemia patients over a 20-year time period. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we analysed the data of 982 beta-thalassemia patients in Iran. Birth cohort and traditional cohort analyses were used to obtain the 5-, 10-, 20-, and 30-year survival rates in various time intervals between 1995 and 2016. Results Five and 10-year survival rates remained unchanged since 1995-2016. Overall, 20- and 30-year survival rates were lower in younger birth cohorts than older ones. A declining trend was found in 20-year survival rate from 1995 to 2000 for all and also for thalassemia major patients, but was stable from 2001 to 2016. In addition, there was a declining trend in 30-year survival rate from 1995 to 2008 for all and also for thalassemia major patients, but was an increased trend from 2009 to 2016. Conclusion Over the past two decades and in recent birth cohorts, the 20- and 30-year survival rates has declined. In other words, declining survival trends in the birth cohorts may be associated with some different causes of mortality such as exposure to the toxic effects of iron over time and the occurrence of diseaserelated mortality.
La grotte Cosquer, devenue sous-marine : un nouveau Lascaux
Authors: Rousseau Michel 
Published: December 2017

Henri Cosquer a donné son nom à la grotte, près de Marseille, devenue sous-marine, qu’il a découverte et explorée au péril de sa vie : la seule, sans doute, ornée de peintures et gravures paléolithiques, en majorité découvertes le 9 juillet 1991. A été établie, par les Laboratoires C.N.R.S./C.E.A. une ancienneté record de l’art humain : entre 26000 et 28000 ans pour les mains négatives ; par ailleurs, entre 18000 et 19000 pour les animaux peints et gravés.
L’étude visée ici, est l’analyse des images d’animaux. Son bilan des espèces est confronté à un bilan pour tout l’art paléolithique. Ont été comptés 45 mains et une centaine d’animaux. Généralement fréquents et présents ici sont : chevaux, bisons, bouquetins, un cerf. Exceptionnels, voire exclusifs sont ici les chamois, et phoques, 3 pingouins.
Cette nouvelle grotte ornée est essentielle, aussi inattendue que de style classique. C’est un domaine d’études uniques.
Vaccination périfocale : efficacité dans la lutte antiaphteuse. II. Études de cas
Authors: Vindrinet Robert 
Published: December 2017

Does perifocal vaccination really work in foot and mouth disease control ?
Two evaluations of the effectiveness of perifocal vaccination is described : one carried out in France, the other in Turkey. In France, during two successive periods, perifocal vaccination was carried out (in association with financial insurance associated with vaccination), followed by systematic vaccination. In Turkey, these two types of vaccination were carried out simultaneously in different territories. Following wide-scale but not systematic prevention, it does seem possible to guarantee that perifocal vaccination of previously unvaccinated cattle would constitute a effective tool in the combat against epizootic disease.
Le Syndrome Dysgénésique et Respiratoire du Porc (SDRP) : Données actuelles sur une nouvelle maladie
Authors: Albina Emmanuel , Madec François 
Published: December 2017

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (prrs) current knowledges on a new disease.
Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) is a new disease of swine due to a new virus. The disease has been first described in the United States of America in 1987. Today, it is present in nearly all the pig producing countries. Symptomatology is very variable, mainly consisting of reproductive disorders (abortion, stillbirth and piglet mortality) and influenza-like syndrome (lack of appetite, slight fever and coughing). The causative agent belongs to the Arterivirus group which also comprises the Equine Arteritis Virus. All these envelopped and RNA’s viruses are able to replicate in macrophages and cross the placental barrier leading to the infection of the fetuses. Since the Arteriviruses are antigenically extremely variable, they are able to persist for a long time within the infected animals although the laters had previously and normally developed a specific immune response : in addition these viruses are highly suspected of being responsible for recurrent immunosuppressive effects. The spreading of the PRRS virus mainly occurres by direct contact between a susceptible animal and an infected one. However, the airborne spreading of the virus on short distances is now well documented. These epidemiological data explain the rapid spreading of the disease inside the high pig density areas. Moreover, the long term viral circulation within the infected herds would compromise any tentative of disease contrôle.

The Objective-Subjective Dichotomy and Rand's Trichotomy
Authors: Baise Arnold 
Published: December 2017

Abstract
The term “objective” has both a metaphysical and an epistemological meaning, and each of these meanings gives rise to a corresponding objective-subjective dichotomy. A formal definition of (epistemological) objectivity is given, and this clarifies the nature of the epistemological dichotomy. These dichotomies are represented by classes of existents, and a Venn-type diagram is used to illustrate the relationship between them. It is shown that the class of all existents can be partitioned into three mutually exclusive and exhaustive classes, which correspond to Rand's intrinsic-subjective-objective trichotomy.
Automated segmentation of cardiac adipose tissue in Dixon magnetic resonance images
Authors: Klingensmith Jon D. , Elliott Addison L. , Fernandez-del-Valle Maria , Mitra Sunanda 
Published: December 2017

Objective: Increasing evidence suggests a strong link between excess cardiac adipose tissue (CAT) and the risk of a cardiovascular event. Multi-echo Dixon magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), providing fat-only and water-only images, is a useful tool for quantification but requires the segmentation of CAT from a large number of images. The intent of this study was to evaluate an automated technique for CAT segmentation from Dixon MRI by comparing the contours identified by the automated algorithm to those manually traced by an observer. Methods: An automated segmentation algorithm, based on optimal thresholds and custom morphological processing, was applied to the registered fat-only and water-only images to identify CAT in the volume scans. CAT contours in 446 images, from 10 MRI scans, were selected for validation analysis. Cross-sectional area (CSA) and volume were computed and compared using Bland-Altman analysis. In addition, Hausdorff distance and Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC) were used for assessment.Results: Linear regression analysis yielded correlation of R2 = 0.381 for CSA and R2 = 0.879 for volume. When compared to the observer, the computer algorithm under-estimated CSA by 27.5 ± 40.0% and volume by 26.4 ± 10.4%. The average bidirectional Hausdorff distance was 26.2 ± 16.0 mm while the average unidirectional Hausdorff distances were 24.5 ± 15.7 mm and 12.4 ± 11.7 mm. The average DSC was 0.561 ± 0.100. The time required for manual tracing was 15.84 ± 3.73 min and the time required for the computer algorithm was 2.81 ± 0.12 min.Conclusions: This study provided a technique, faster and less tedious than manual tracing (p < 0.00001), for quantification of CAT in Dixon MRI data, demonstrating feasibility of this approach for cardiac risk stratification.

<p>The paper features the language objectivation of femininity in the glossy magazines Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire and Glamour. The analysis of the problem is based on the theory of the social construction of gender and aims to identify the main trends of language representation of women. The material of the study was Russian Publications Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire and Glamor - the most popular glossy magazines designed for women. The files of the examples analyzed by us are compiled by the method of continuous sampling (more than 2000 contexts) on the basis of printed and Internet versions of Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire and Glamor journals in 2016. The verbal component is considered as one of the main factors in the construction of gender in glossy magazines, which model new type of the "femine" consciousness, combining the sensual experience of reality and the ability to transform it. Gender relations, stereotypes and ideology are revealed through the analysis of linguistic representations. The authors observe morphological and syntax means of the Russian language as indicators of gender identification in terms of mediatext construction. The analysis of language means proves the complication of gender identification in Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire and Glamour, and the sharpening of the "femine" consciousness due to inclusion of masculine features in it. The analysis of linguistic means representing femininity allows to draw a conclusion about the modeling a new type of "female consciousness" on the pages of glossy magazines, in which the ability to the sensual experience of reality is supplemented by the ability to transform it. </p>
Shift of symbiont communities in Acropora tenuis juveniles under heat stress

Published: December 2017

Ocean warming is a major threat to coral reefs, leading to an increasing frequency and amplitude of coral bleaching events, where the coral and its algal symbiont associations breakdown. Long-term change and resilience of a symbiont community in coral juveniles is thought to be one of the most important aspects for determining thermal tolerance of the coral holobionts; however, despite its importance, they are not well documented in both under elevated temperature and even under natural condition. Here we investigated changes in symbiont communities in juveniles of the coral Acropora tenuis under controlled heat stress conditions (30 °C, 31/32 °C) and natural variations in seawater temperatures (19–30 °C) for up to four months. Compared with the ambient temperature conditions, coral survival rates were higher when exposed to 30 °C, but survival rates decreased when exposed to 31/32 °C. Symbiodinium types A3, C1, and D1-4 were detected in the juveniles under all thermal conditions; however, in higher water temperatures (31/32 °C), both the prevalence of D1-4 Symbiodinium and the number of juveniles harboring only this type of symbiont increased after two to four months later. In contrast, colonies at lower temperatures (30 °C and ambient) harbored multiple clades of symbionts over the same experimental period. These results highlight the flexibility of the coral–Symbiodinium symbiosis for juvenile A. tenuis under variable thermal conditions. In particular, the benefit of the preferential association with type D1-4 can be considered as a response when under heat-stress conditions, and that could help corals to cope with ocean warming.
Ultrasound measurement of perirenal adipose tissue indicates cardiovascular disease, but standardisation is needed: A systematic review
Authors: Baumann Victoria J. A. , Banati Richard , Clarke Jillian L. 
Published: October 2024

AbstractIntroductionIn both highly industrialised and developing countries, obesity is reaching epidemic proportions and increasingly becoming a critical indicator of general morbidity, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and renal dysfunction. A promising trend in detection and management of obesity is the measurement of perirenal adipose tissue (PRAT), increasingly recognised as a metabolically active endocrine organ in itself. Its measurement by ultrasound is used increasingly to indicate visceral obesity and its clinical management. This review synthesises current techniques for measuring PRAT and its potential use as an indicator of CVD.MethodsWe included clinical studies published between 2010 and 2023, investigating the current practice and use of specific ultrasonographic techniques and assessed the reliability and accuracy of included papers. The risk of bias was assessed using the Downs and Black Checklist, and the methodological quality examined using the Grade of Recommendations, Assessments, Development and Evaluation.ResultsIt found, PRAT measures are predictive of CVD risk factors and the accuracy of ultrasound is comparable to CT and MRI, but there is no consistency in ultrasound technique. The lack of any randomised control trials and the use of 20 different non‐standardised ultrasound techniques across the 21 studies resulted in inconsistent and imprecise clinical observations and interpretations, which decreased the overall quality of the studies.ConclusionThis review found the inclusion of ultrasound measures in routine abdominal imaging potentially invaluable but demonstrates the need for standardisation of the perirenal fat ultrasound measuring technique to improve reproducibility and reliability.

ABSTRACTIn this study, the application of continuous wavelet transform as a signal processing technique for the spectrofluorimetric determination of rosuvastatin and losartan is investigated. Both rosuvastatin and losartan exhibited native spectrofluorometric signals with severe overlapping peaks, making their simultaneous determination challenging. To address this issue, rbio 2.4 wavelet transformation was employed to obtain zero‐crossing points in the synchronous fluorescence spectra of losartan and rosuvastatin at 346 and 408 nm, respectively, making their quantification possible. The developed method was validated according to the ICH guidelines and displayed high accuracy, precision, and specificity. The method exhibited excellent linearity over concentration ranges 0.2–2.0 and 0.25–2.0 μg/mL for losartan and rosuvastatin, respectively. In addition, LOD and LOQ were 0.046 and 0.140 μg/mL for losartan and 0.036 and 0.110 μg/mL for rosuvastatin, respectively, indicating the high sensitivity of the developed method. Moreover, greenness and blueness assessments were carried, revealing a high AGREE score of 0.71 and BAGI score of 77.5 for the developed method, making it a promising greener alternative for the reported chromatographic methods. Finally, the developed method was applied to the determination of rosuvastatin and losartan in pharmaceutical formulations, posing it as a powerful greener alternative in quality control laboratories.
Mechanosensitive Piezo channels and their potential roles in peripheral auditory perception

Published: October 2024

AbstractHearing sound and responding to external and internal mechanical stimuli requires specific proteins as mechanotransducers that convert mechanical forces into biological signals. However, our understanding of the mechanotransduction process in the inner ear is still incomplete. Mechanically activated ion channels, PIEZO1 and PIEZO2, are widely distributed throughout the body and play essential roles. Recent studies have discovered that Piezo channels are expressed in inner ear hair cells, suggesting their potential involvement in auditory perception. This review summarizes the existing discoveries about the Piezo channels, including their structure, mechanogating mechanisms, and general physiological roles, explicitly focusing on Piezo channels in the auditory systems. Piezo channels play roles in ultrasound perception, generation of anomalous current, hair cell development, and potentially in the normal mechanoelectrical transduction process of hair cells. Collectively, this review aims to provide a new perspective on the Piezo channel and its potential roles in auditory perception.
