Authors: Lalošević Jovan , Lekić Branislav , Gajić-Veljić Mirjana , Škiljević Dušan , Đukić Katarina , Medenica Ljiljana 
Published: March 2017

AbstractVerrucous carcinoma (VC) is a rare variant of a well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) with a low grade of malignancy. Epithelioma cuniculatum (EC) is a subtype of VC, usually found on the sole of the foot.Two patients, a 55-year-old female, and a 77-year-old male, with VC were treated at the Clinic of Dermatology and Venereology, Clinical Center of Serbia, from 2002 to 2011. Both patients presented with a tumor on the foot. Incisional biopsies showed a well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. Foot x-rays showed bone involvement in one case. One patient underwent surgical amputation of the lower extremity, while the other had a partial amputation of the affected foot.In the initial stage of the disease, it is difficult to distinguish pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia from verrucous carcinoma. The superficial biopsy of EC lesion may mislead to a histopathological diagnosis of warts or condylomas. Multiple deep biopsies are necessary for accurate and timely diagnosis of verrucous carcinoma.

Published: March 2017

AbstractSarcoidosis is an acquired idiopathic granulomatous disease, which is characterized by noncaseating epithelioid granulomas in organs and tissues. Most frequently it affects the lungs, liver, lymph nodes, skin, eyes and other organs. The cutaneous lesions appear in 20 - 30% of patients with systemic manifestations, and in 25% of them they appear without systemic manifestations. Based on the histopathological characteristics, cutaneous lesions are divided into specific, characterized by cutaneous granuloma, and non-specific, which are not granulomatous. Moreover, they can be classified as typical and atypical. We are presenting a female patient with unilateral hilar calcification of the lungs, who exhibited plaque skin lesions typical for sarcoidosis, with a specific granulomatous histology and a favorable response to corticosteroid and antimalarial therapy.

Abstract
The paper presents the spring habitats and their communities edified by the Large Bitter Cress (Cardamine amara L.) in the area of Nergăniţa, a headwater stream of the Nera River included in the “Nature Reserve Semenic Mountains and springs of Nera River”. The communities of Large Bitter Cress are situated in and on the springs and spring streamlets situated in the beech forest area, being well adapted to the special site conditions with low water temperatures, low light conditions and humus rich soils. The species composition of the Large Bitter Cress communities and their habitats are presented in strong relation with the habitat conditions and the interrelation with other communities. Finally, the conservation status of the streamlets habitats is analyzed in the context of their importance for the European Natura 2000 network.

Abstract
Bishop, SH, Szymanski, DJ, Ryan, GA, Herron, RL, and Bishop, PA. The effect of intermittent vest cooling on thermoregulation and cardiovascular strain in baseball catchers. J Strength Cond Res 31(8): 2060–2065, 2017—Baseball catchers are exposed to multiple physiological challenges while playing outside during the spring and summer months, many of which deal with recovery and thermoregulation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of intermittent cooling on core temperature, cardiovascular strain, exertion, and recovery during a simulated catching performance in the heat. Six trained college-aged baseball catchers performed in a controlled, hot (35° C), and humid (25% relative humidity) environment in a counter-balanced, cross-over design. Ice vest cooling (VC) was used as a cooling modality and was compared with a control of no cooling (NC). Rectal temperature (Tre), heart rate (HR), rating of perceived exertion (RPE), and perceived recovery scale (PRS) were recorded before and after each simulated inning. All activities took place in a heat chamber, and each inning consisted of catchers receiving 12 pitches in their position followed by 6 minutes of recovery. Nine total innings were performed, and 27 total innings were performed with each of the 2 treatments. A significantly smaller mean Tre change was seen in VC when compared with NC (0.58 ± 0.2° C, 0.98 ± 0.2° C, p ≤ 0.01, respectively). Rating of perceived exertion was significantly lower and PRS was significantly improved for VC compared with NC (both p ≤ 0.05). Mean recovery HR during VC was significantly lower than NC in the fifth (VC = 84 ± 8 b·min−1, NC = 90 ± 9 b·min−1, p = 0.04), seventh (VC = 84 ± 3 b·min−1, NC = 92 ± 7 b·min−1, p = 0.02), and ninth (VC = 85 ± 7 b·min−1, NC = 93 ± 5 b·min−1, p = 0.01) innings. Heart rate during catching was significantly lower at the end of the VC trials when compared with NC (108 ± 16 b·min−1 vs. 120 ± 19 b·min−1, p = 0.02, respectively). Vest cooling decreased heat strain, cardiovascular strain, and RPE while it improved perceived recovery in catchers over a simulated 3-game series performed in hot conditions.
Con letras se hacen palabras: contribuciones para una caracterización del 'libro-abecedario' para la infancia
Authors: Silva Sara Raquel Duarte Reis da , Martins Diana Maria 
Published: March 2017

Existe una concienciación pública y política en el sentido de una promoción precoz de prácticas de lectura, por la exposición al lenguaje oral, al lenguaje escrito y a los libros (Strickland & Morrow, 1989). La investigación ha demostrado que el aprendizaje de la lectura y la motivación para leer comienzan antes de la entrada en la escuela. Para su desarrollo, es crucial la sensibilización de padres y educadores en lo que se refiere a la promoción de actividades entorno al libro (Pressley, 1999; Whitehurst & Lonigan, 2001; Gillen & Hall, 2003). Entre las estrategias de promoción de la lectura y de la construcción de competencias lecto-literarias, se señala el contacto precoz, asíduo y cercano con los libros, posibilitando el manejo libre, intuitivo y lúdico y asociándolo a momentos de placer y afectividad. Entre la vasta oferta de libros para la infancia en el mercado editorial portugués, se encuentran disponibles libros-abecedario que parecen cumplir con los objetivos enunciados. Partiendo de un corpus ejemplificativo, nos proponemos dar cuenta de algunas de las más relevantes singularidades textuales y visual/gráficas de títulos que integran la categoria en pauta, intentando avanzar con contribuciones para su caracterización/definición.

Published: March 2017

Penelitian di bidang ekologi menunjukkan bahwa wilayah terumbu karang yang terjaga dengan baik oleh konservasi menjadi tempat yang ideal bagi biota invertebrata untuk menghasilkan senyawa bioaktif farmakologis. Penelitian ini bertujuan memperoleh informasi mengenai sitotoksisitas dari spons, karang lunak dan ascidian yang berasal dari perairan Pulau Banda. Informasi sitotoksisitas invertebrata laut tersebut selanjutnya digunakan sebagai acuan dalam mempelajari sistem k onservasi yang telah dilakukan. Lima j enis invertebrata laut (Sarcophyton sp., Nephthea sp., Hyrtios sp., Stylissa sp., dan Polycarpa sp.) diambil (lima ulangan acak) di kawasan konservasi Pantai Wali, Desa Solomon, Pulau Banda. Penapisan sitotoksisitas dilakukan terhadap ekstrak etanol dari keseluruhan sampel. Hasil penapisan memperlihatkan bahwa Stylissa sp. merupakan biota yang paling potensial karena ekstrak etanol dari Stylissa sp. memiliki daya sitotoksisitas tertinggi dibandingkan jenis invertebrata yang diujikan lainnya. Namun demikian, sitotoksisitas biota-biota yang diperoleh dari perairan ini tergolong rendah. Perbandingan multidimensional scaling (MDS) nilai sitotoksisitas antara sampel invertebrate dari perairan Banda dan perairan lainnya menunjukkan bahwa karakteristik perairan Pulau Banda berada pada level baik dan rendah. Oleh karena itu, sistem konservasi harus dioptimasi lebih lanjut agar dapat menjaga keberlangsungan plasma nutfah di perairan Pulau Banda.

¿Hacia una movilidad sustentable? Desafíos de las políticas de reordenamiento del transporte público en Latinoamérica. El caso de Lima
Authors: Poole-Fuller Esteban 
Published: March 2017

Durante las últimas dos décadas varias ciudades latinoamericanas han reorganizado sus servicios de transporte público, que presentaban bajos estándares de calidad, para establecer sistemas integrados de transporte con mayores niveles de planificación y regulación estatal. Ello ha coincidido con la creciente acogida del enfoque de movilidad sustentable, que busca superar las políticas urbanas centradas en el automóvil y fomentar formas de desplazamiento con una mayor sostenibilidad social y ambiental. Teniendo en cuenta el contexto descrito, el presente artículo analiza la experiencia de reordenamiento del transporte público en la ciudad de Lima. Asimismo, la contrasta con procesos precedentes de reordenamiento de la movilidad urbana en Curitiba, Santiago de Chile y Bogotá. Se concluye que el proceso de reordenamiento del transporte público de Lima, actualmente inconcluso, requiere una serie de ajustes en su diseño e implementación a fin de que el mismo propicie efectivamente el establecimiento de un modelo de movilidad sustentable en la capital peruana.

Published: March 2017

<p>The knowledge related to medicinal plants have been described in Indian Ayurveda System and survived till today through the prevalent socio-cultural practices. Present study is an attempt to document anti-diabetic plants from Una district of Himachal Pradesh. A thorough survey was conducted from 500 respondents using a semi-structured questionnaire and informal discussions. A total of 84 anti-diabetic plant species have been recorded. These plants include wild (32) or cultivated (41) species. Fabaceae was the dominant family with 10 species. The phytoremedies were prepared using different plant parts or sometimes even the whole plant or in combination with other species. There are only few reports on anti-diabetic use of some wild species from the study area. Further studies of bioactive compounds in these species can depict their hypoglycemic potential. Present study has suggested a strong link between traditional herbal medicines, their documentation and proper chemical characterization to harness their therapeutic potential to the maximum. </p><p><strong>KEY WORDS: </strong>Diabetes, bioactive compounds, traditional medicines, phytoremedies, angiosperms, Una, Himachal Pradesh</p>

Objectives. To examine associations of administratively recorded sexual assault victimization during military service with subsequent mental health and negative career outcomes among US Army women controlling for nonrandom victimization exposure. Methods. We used data from the Army Study to Assess Risk and Resilience in Servicemembers to apply propensity score methods to match all 4238 female Regular Army soldiers with administratively recorded sexual assault victimization during 2004 to 2009 to 5 controls per case with similar composite victimization risk. We examined associations of this victimization measure with administratively recorded mental health treatment, suicide attempt, and Army career outcomes over the subsequent 12 months by using survival analysis for dichotomous outcomes and conditional generalized linear models for continuous outcomes. Results. Women with administratively recorded sexual assault had significantly elevated odds ratios (ORs) of subsequent mental health treatment (any, OR = 2.5; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.4, 2.6; specialty, OR = 3.1; 95% CI = 2.9, 3.3; inpatient, OR = 2.8; 95% CI = 2.5, 3.1), posttraumatic stress disorder treatment (any, OR = 6.3; 95% CI = 5.7, 6.9; specialty, OR = 7.7; 95% CI = 6.8, 8.6; inpatient, OR = 6.8; 95% CI = 5.4, 8.6), suicide attempt (OR = 3.0; 95% CI = 2.5, 3.6), demotion (OR = 2.1; 95% CI = 1.9, 2.3), and attrition (OR = 1.2; 95% CI = 1.1, 1.2). Conclusions. Sexual assault victimization is associated with considerable suffering and likely decreased force readiness.
