On the properties (wL) and (wV)
Authors: Ghenciu Ioana 
Published: February 2017

Abstract
We characterize Banach spaces X with spaces with property (wL), i.e. spaces with the property that every L-subset of X* is weakly precompact. We prove that a Banach space X has property (wL) if and only if for any Banach space Y, any completely continuous operator T : X → Y has weakly precompact adjoint if and only if any completely continuous operator T : X → ℓ
∞ has weakly precompact adjoint.
We prove that if E is a Banach space and F is a reflexive subspace of E* such that ⊥
F has property (wL), then E has property (wL). We show that a space E has property RDP* (resp. the DPrcP) if and only if any closed separable subspace of E has property RDP* (resp. the DPrcP). We also show that G has property (wL) if under some conditions K

(E*, F) contains the dual of G.
On the existence of solutions for quadratic integral equations in Orlicz spaces
Authors: Cichoń Mieczysław , Metwali Mohamed M. A. 
Published: February 2017

Abstract
We study quadratic integral equations in Orlicz spaces on the interval [a, b]. We relate growth conditions with appropriate spaces of solutions and then we investigate different cases. Our approach allows to consider discontinuous solutions as well as to unify the results for both quadratic and classical integral equations. Many different types of growth conditions for investigated functions are considered.
Almost Weyl structures on null geometry in indefinite Kenmotsu manifolds
Authors: Massamba Fortuné 
Published: February 2017

Abstract
We introduce and investigate a new concept of almost Weyl structures on null hypersufaces in indefinite Kenmotsu manifolds, tangent to the structure vector field. We show that, under some conditions, there are foliations on almost Weyl null hypersufaces which are Einstein-Weyl with scalar curvature of constant sign.
On the internal approach to differential equations 3. Infinitesimal symmetries
Authors: Chrastinová Veronika , Tryhuk Václav 
Published: February 2017

Abstract
The geometrical theory of partial differential equations in the absolute sense, without any additional structures, is developed. In particular the symmetries need not preserve the hierarchy of independent and dependent variables. The order of derivatives can be changed and the article is devoted to the higher-order infinitesimal symmetries which provide a simplifying “linear approximation” of general groups of higher-order symmetries. The classical Lie’s approach is appropriately adapted.
A Characterization of the discontinuity point set of strongly separately continuous functions on products
Authors: Karlova Olena , Mykhaylyuk Volodymyr 
Published: February 2017

Abstract
We study properties of strongly separately continuous mappings defined on subsets of products of topological spaces equipped with the topology of pointwise convergence. In particular, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a strongly separately continuous mapping to be continuous on a product of an arbitrary family of topological spaces. Moreover, we characterize the discontinuity point set of strongly separately continuous function defined on a subset of countable product of finite-dimensional normed spaces.

Domination number of total graphs
Authors: Shariatinia Abbas , Maimani Hamid Reza , Yassemi Siamak 
Published: February 2017

Abstract
Let R be a commutative ring with Z(R) the set of zero-divisors and U(R) the set of unit elements of R. The total graph of R, denoted by T(Γ(R)), is the (undirected) graph with all elements of R as vertices, and for distinct x, y ∈ R, the vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if x + y ∈ Z(R). We study the domination number of T(Γ(R)). It is shown that if R = Z(R) ∪ U(R), then the domination number of T(∪(R)) is finite provided R has a maximal ideal of finite index. Moreover, if

|, then the domination number of T(Γ(R)) is equal to t - 1 provided t = |Fi
| for every 1 ≤ i ≤ n, and is equal to t otherwise. Finally, for an R-module M it is shown that the total domination number of the total graph of the idealization (Nagata extension) R(+)M is equal to the domination number of the total graph of R provided M is a torsion free R-module or R = Z(R) ∪ U(R).
“It’s not comfortable being who I am” – Multilingual identity in superdiverse Dubai
Authors: ONeill Gary Thomas 
Published: February 2017

AbstractThis ethnographic case study examines the factors that contribute to multilingual choices and the construction of identities in a linguistically diverse family within a linguistically diverse city, Dubai in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Based on interviews with a female Emirati in her early thirties, the article examines this young woman’s dispositions (habitus), beliefs and practices with regard to the language and literacy resources at her disposal. It describes how she views English and several varieties of Arabic, focusing largely on her language practices, and the role that they play in the construction and management of her identities, within personal and professional relationships and in relation to the various tasks that she performs in daily life. The study finds that in this superdiverse society, existing language ideologies, indexicalities, stereotypes, and gender issues, may render the performance of multilingualism and the construction of identities potentially rewarding but also potentially disturbing, particularly for those individuals who, through birth and/or marriage, are members of several national or ethnic communities, and who may be, in some senses, icons of superdiversity.

Authors: Ķirse Asnate , Kārkliņa Daina , Muižniece-Brasava Sandra 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of sous vide packaging on the shelf life of maple pea (Pisum sativum var. arvense L.) spread. Pea spreads were made of ground re-hydrated cooked maple peas ‘Bruno’ (Pisum sativum var. arvense L.), to which salt, citric acid, oil, and spices were added. Pea spread was stored in polyamide/polyethylene (PA/PE) film pouches, packaged in vacuum and hermetically sealed. Pea spread pouches were heat treated in a water bath, then rapidly cooled in ice-water and stored at 4.0 ± 0.5 °C. Sous vide was applied in three different heat regimens +(65.0; 80.0 and 100.0) ± 0.5 °C with cooking times 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 min at a constant temperature. Total plate count was determined according to ISO 4833-1:2014 on Plate Count Agar and Enterobacteriaceae determination was performed in accordance with ISO 21528-2:2004 on Violet Red Bile Glucose Agar. Total plate count in pea spread without thermal treatment was 3.41 log10 CFU g−1, in all sous vide packaged pea spread samples microbial contamination was significantly lower (p < 0.05). Enterobacteriaceae were not detected in any samples. It is possible to extend the shelf life of sous vide maple pea spread up to 14 weeks when stored at 4.0 ± 0.5 °C.
Excess of radiation burden for young testicular cancer patients using automatic exposure control and contrast agent on whole-body computed tomography imaging
Authors: Niiniviita Hannele , Kulmala Jarmo , Pölönen Tuukka , Määttänen Heli , Järvinen Hannu , Salminen Eeva 
Published: February 2017

Abstract

Background
The aim of the study was to assess patient dose from whole-body computed tomography (CT) in association with patient size, automatic exposure control (AEC) and intravenous (IV) contrast agent.

Patients and methods
Sixty-five testicular cancer patients (mean age 28 years) underwent altogether 279 whole-body CT scans from April 2000 to April 2011. The mean number of repeated examinations was 4.3. The GE LightSpeed 16 equipped with AEC and the Siemens Plus 4 CT scanners were used for imaging. Whole-body scans were performed with (216) and without (63) IV contrast. The ImPACT software was used to determine the effective and organ doses.

Results
Patient doses were independent (p < 0.41) of patient size when the Plus 4 device (mean 7.4 mSv, SD 1.7 mSv) was used, but with the LightSpeed 16 AEC device, the dose (mean 14 mSv, SD 4.6 mSv) increased significantly (p < 0.001) with waist cirfumference. Imaging with the IV contrast agent caused significantly higher (13% Plus 4, 35% LightSpeed 16) exposure than non-contrast imaging (p < 0.001).

Conclusions
Great caution on the use of IV contrast agent and careful set-up of the AEC modulation parameters is recommended to avoid excessive radiation exposure on the whole-body CT imaging of young patients.
Longevity in Slovenia: Past and potential gains in life expectancy by age and causes of death
Authors: Lotrič Dolinar Aleša , Došenović Bonča Petra , Sambt Jože 
Published: February 2017

Abstract

Introduction
In Slovenia, longevity is increasing rapidly. From 1997 to 2014, life expectancy at birth increased by 7 and 5 years for men and women, respectively. This paper explores how this gain in life expectancy at birth can be attributed to reduced mortality from five major groups of causes of death by 5-year age groups. It also estimates potential future gains in life expectancy at birth.

Methods
The importance of the five major causes of death was analysed by cause-elimination life tables. The total elimination of individual causes of death and a partial hypothetical adjustment of mortality to Spanish levels were analysed, along with age and cause decomposition (Pollard).

Results
During the 1997–2014 period, the increase in life expectancy at birth was due to lower mortality from circulatory diseases (ages above 60, both genders), as well as from lower mortality from neoplasms (ages above 50 years) and external causes (between 20 and 50 years) for men. However, considering the potential future gains in life expectancy at birth, by far the strongest effect can be attributed to lower mortality due to circulatory diseases for both genders. If Spanish mortality rates were reached, life expectancy at birth would increase by more than 2 years, again mainly because of lower mortality from circulatory diseases in very old ages.

Discussion and conclusions
Life expectancy analyses can improve evidence-based decision-making and allocation of resources among different prevention programmes and measures for more effective disease management that can also reduce the economic burden of chronic diseases.
Assessment of the association between dentate status and self-rated general health
Authors: Ranfl Martin , Zaletel-Kragelj Lijana 
Published: February 2017

Abstract

Objective
Aiming at preparing the basis for evidence-based dental public health policy making in Slovenia, the objective of the study was to assess the strength of association between oral health status measured by the number of missing teeth and self-rated health (SRH).

Methods
The study was designed as a pooled individual-level data study from four national cross-sectional studies carried out in the period 2001-2012, based on CINDI Health Monitor methodology. Altogether, 34,412 participants were included. A logistic regression model with poor SRH as observed outcome and the number of teeth as explanatory factor (adjusted for selected biologic, socio-economic and health factors) was proposed.

Results
In the sample, women represented 55.7% and men 44.3%, median age was 45 years. Persons with more missing teeth more likely rated their health as poor. The association was persistent even when different confounding variables were included in the model. In the group with 1-5 missing teeth, in comparison to the group with none missing teeth, OR was 1.23 (p=0.049), whereas for the group with 6-10 missing teeth, OR was 1.32 (p=0.019); for the group with >10 missing teeth, but not all, OR was 1.77 (p<0.001), and for the group with all missing teeth, OR was 2.19 (p<0.001).

Conclusions
Study results showed clear association of SRH with dentate status, which confirms the oral-general health connection. This indicates the need for the development of proper dental public health policies for better oral health, and presents a new view on the importance of preserving teeth.
The history of public health use of fluorides in caries prevention
Authors: Šket Tea , Kukec Andreja , Kosem Rok , Artnik Barbara 
Published: February 2017

Abstract

Aim
The aim of our study was to chronologically analyse various public health measures of fluoride use in caries prevention.

Methods
We systematically searched the PubMed database on the preventive role of fluorides in public health, published from 1984 to 2014. The search process was divided into four steps, where inclusion and exclusion criteria were defined. Qualitative methodology was used for the article analysis. In the research process, the described forms of F use, diversity of the described F agents, and the observed population group were analysed.

Results
In our systematic review, 40 relevant reviews were revealed. Fluorides have been used in many different forms, but only a few studies showed their significant role in public health. Water fluoridation was the most important public health measure. In the recent decades, the number of studies on topical fluorides is constantly rising. The most extensively described topical forms of fluorides are professionally applied fluoride agents and fluoride toothpaste for home-use. The use of fluoride containing toothpaste in caries prevention is a safe and successful public health measure (PHM) if their use is widespread, and it is recommended for all. The results on other topical forms of fluorides are insufficient to be suggested as an important PHM.

Conclusions
The role of fluorides in public health prevention has changed in accordance with the knowledge about the fluoride cariostatic mechanism. Previously the most important pre-eruptive effect of fluorides was supplemented by the post eruptive effect. Abundant evidence exists to show the effectiveness of systemic and topical fluorides.

Published: March 2017

AbstractThe American cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.) is a recently domesticated, economically important, fruit crop with limited molecular resources. New genetic resources could accelerate genetic gain in cranberry through characterization of its genomic structure and by enabling molecular-assisted breeding strategies. To increase the availability of cranberry genomic resources, genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) was used to discover and genotype thousands of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within three interrelated cranberry full-sib populations. Additional simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci were added to the SNP datasets and used to construct bin maps for the parents of the populations, which were then merged to create the first high-density cranberry composite map containing 6073 markers (5437 SNPs and 636 SSRs) on 12 linkage groups (LGs) spanning 1124 cM. Interestingly, higher rates of recombination were observed in maternal than paternal gametes. The large number of markers in common (mean of 57.3) and the high degree of observed collinearity (mean Pair-wise Spearman rank correlations &gt;0.99) between the LGs of the parental maps demonstrates the utility of GBS in cranberry for identifying polymorphic SNP loci that are transferable between pedigrees and populations in future trait-association studies. Furthermore, the high-density of markers anchored within the component maps allowed identification of segregation distortion regions, placement of centromeres on each of the 12 LGs, and anchoring of genomic scaffolds. Collectively, the results represent an important contribution to the current understanding of cranberry genomic structure and to the availability of molecular tools for future genetic research and breeding efforts in cranberry.

PLACES AND NAMES IN ASŪNE PARISH IN THE CENSUS (“REVISION OF SOULS”) OF 1772
Authors: Kovaļevska Otīlija 
Published: March 2017

The aim of the article is to present the content of the census 1772 for Rēzekne District and show the possibilities it provides for research of the place names of certain areas. The chosen territory corresponds to Asūne parish as it was in 1935 and includes the contemporary Asūne and Ķepova parish, as well as partially Svariņi and Bērziņi parish. The results of 1772 census is the richest source of information about villages and inhabitants which belonged to the former Asūne half a manor and clergy house in 18th century. The documents describe 75 villages, 424 households and 4733 persons. Individual people are listed indicating each person’s name, surname (for adults), age, and position in the family or kinship (hosts, wives, children, other relatives, foster children, workers s. c.). Up to now it is also the oldest source, so broadly representing women's surnames in Asūne parish because they differ from their husbands' surnames. Most often a woman kept their father’s surname, but occasionally the surname was made of her father’s name or even of a place name. Thereby it becomes possible to observe the intense formation process of surnames and related place names in the 18th century. Noteworthy are the names and surnames that are rare or even have not survived to the present day, but the traces of such names are still preserved in place names and surnames, which in turn indicate newcomers from other parishes and even from Belarus. Geographical descriptions of villages contain also the names of 17 lakes and 11 rivers; most of them have kept their names until nowadays. Older forms of actual place names and several already disappeared names can be found there.For the analysis of the material options of Excel programs (structuring, selection the materials, extraction and processing of statistical data, graphic visualization) have been used. Cartographical methods have been employed to search for correlations between the village names and surnames. To acquire a better understanding of the results of the census 1772, these materials were compared with earlier 18th century census data, as well as with maps from various periods.
