An Assemblage of Thai Water Engineering: The Royal Irrigation Department’s Museum for Heavy Engineering as a Parliament of Things
Authors: Sangkhamanee Jakkrit 
Published: May 2017

In Thailand, where water and land intertwine to shape the livelihood and identity of people, engineering bureaucracy and mechanical technology have both played significant roles in producing national ideology. At the same time, bureaucracy and technologies are historical products. In this contribution, I explore Thailand’s Royal Irrigation Department (RID) Museum for Heavy Engineering and argues that the museum—instantiating a parliament of things (Latour) engineered into exhibition—participated in the shaping of the Thai water engineering community and the shaping of Thai statecraft. Operating through selective portrayals and juxtapositions of engineers, technologies, bureaucracies, and natural events, the parliament of things composed by the exhibits encompasses not only the intimate entanglements between the bodies of engineers and machines, and between machines and bureaucracy, but also mythical and cosmological elements like divine stones and naga vehicles. In this way, the museum parliament testifies to a blurring of nature, society and divinity occurring at the very heart of the Thai engineered state. It articulates Thai water engineering as a nonmodern assemblage beholden neither to the dichotomy of nature and culture, nor to any clear distinctions between science, politics and cosmology. Paradoxically, this nonmodern assemblage has been central in propelling forward the seemingly high-modern practice of Thai water engineering.
From Gravitational Machine to Universal Habitat: The Drainage Basin and Amphibious Futures in the Chao Phraya Delta, Thailand
Authors: Morita Atsuro 
Published: May 2017

This paper elucidates the development of the drainage basin model, one particular frame for capturing the relative motion between water and land, by highlighting the parallel developments between scientific notion and water management infrastructures. Facilitating a continuous movement back and forth between science and infrastructure, the drainage basin allows for the revelation of unexpected forms of relatedness and has played an important role in the emergence of a form of relational morality. To make this argument, this paper focuses on the Chao Phraya Delta in Thailand. While located in the periphery of the centers of modern science, the delta holds significance as a place where colonial hydrological technoscience and indigenous development intersected. The encounter between the two has resulted in a new vision of the city as a waterscape, a sort of drainage basin that connects natural, social and economic processes through numerous, complex water flows.

Published: May 2017

Abstract:
The information from social media is emerging as a valuable source in decision-making, unfortunately the tools to turn these data into useful information still need some work. Using Support Vector Machines for polarity detection in short texts are popular among researchers for their good results, but parameter optimization to train classification models is a complex and costly process. This article compares two algorithms for automated parameter optimization in the process of creating classification models for polarity detection: the recently created Grey Wolf Optimizer and the Grid Search, using accuracy and f-score metrics.
Spanish Abstract:
Los datos provenientes de las redes sociales están emergiendo como una fuente valiosa de información para los procesos de toma de decisiones, desafortunadamente las herramientas para convertir estos datos en información útil todavía tienen mucho camino por recorrer.

Published: May 2017

L’élevage bovin laitier au Maroc a connu ces dernières années une évolution mouvementée. Cette activité contribue pourtant fortement à l’approvisionnement des laiteries et des marchés urbains, ainsi qu’au maintien des conditions de vie en zone rurale. La présente étude a eu pour objectif de caractériser les performances techniques et économiques de l’élevage bovin au regard des contraintes qu’il doit surmonter. Dans une première partie, le prix de revient (coût de production) du lait a été étudié sur la base d’une enquête conduite dans 86 étables réparties dans les principaux bassins d’élevage du Maroc. Deux méthodes de calcul ont permis de porter un jugement sur la rentabilité de cette activité. Dans une seconde partie, les manques à gagner issus de rendements laitiers limités ont été caractérisés et mis en relation avec les rations ingérées par les vaches en lactation dans six étables, au cours de deux saisons successives (le printemps et l’été) dans une région favorable du pays (le périmètre irrigué du Gharb). Ce travail a souligné la faible rentabilité des fermes bovines et les marges d’amélioration en matière de rationnement, surtout pour les vaches à haut potentiel. Le conseil aux éleveurs permettant d’améliorer les pratiques d’alimentation des animaux et la revalorisation du prix de vente du lait à la ferme constituent deux conditions importantes du maintien durable de l’élevage bovin laitier au Maroc.

Dans le but d’apprécier la qualité microbiologique de la viande de dromadaire produite à l’abattoir de la wilaya de Ouargla en Algérie, la contamination superficielle d’origine bactérienne de 60 carcasses camelines a été évaluée. Les prélèvements ont été réalisés par écouvillonnage de trois sites (cuisse, flanc et épaule). Les échantillons ont été prélevés dans un intervalle d’une heure après l’abattage de l’animal, après le dépouillement, à la fin de l’éviscération et avant l’inspection post mortem. Les taux de germes ont varié en fonction des carcasses et des sites de prélèvement. La flore prédominante a été la flore aérobie mésophile totale, dont le niveau de contamination a été de 2,8 log UFC/cm2, représentant 25 p. 100 de la flore dénombrée, suivie par les entérobactéries avec 2,4 log UFC/cm2 (21 p. 100), les coliformes totaux avec 2,2 log UFC/cm2 (20 p. 100), les coliformes fécaux avec 2,0 log UFC/ cm2 (18 p. 100), et les staphylocoques avec 1,8 log UFC/cm2 (16 p. 100). La présence de souches de salmonelles et d’Escherichia coli a été détectée sur toutes les zones prélevées de la carcasse. La viande cameline de l’abattoir de Ouargla a présenté un niveau de contamination élevé par les germes pathogènes (salmonelles et staphylocoques). Une contamination fécale (E. coli) élevée a également été observée. De bonnes pratiques d’hygiène durant la phase d’abattage doivent être mises en œuvre afin de diminuer le niveau de contamination.

Published: May 2017

Introduction: It is well known that musicians are a group prone to suffer from playing-related musculoskeletal disorders. Professional orchestra musicians play for several hours a week and have to fight against pain caused by their profession. The aim of this study was to explore and describe self-reported complaints among professional orchestra musicians and to compare its intensity and the prevalence between string and wind instruments.Material and Methods: Hundred and twelve professional orchestra musicians from the three main professional orchestras from the North of Portugal were individually interviewed about the prevalence and the intensity (measured by verbal numerical scale for pain) of their playing-related musculoskeletal disorders.Results: About two third (62.5%) of the interviewed musicians presented playing-related musculoskeletal disorders during the time of the interview. Despite there are no significant statistic values between groups, results suggested that playing-related musculoskeletal disorders are more common in string players and more intense in wind players.Discussion: Referring to the prevalence of playing-related musculoskeletal disorders, our data is in line with other studies from different countries. More than half of professional orchestra musicians in the North of Portugal are playing with a mild to moderate pain.Conclusion: Future studies focusing on working-related problems among professional orchestra musicians in Portugal would be useful to better describe the problem of occupational diseases among performing artist.

Published: May 2017

Introduction: Foley catheter promotes cervix priming by a direct mechanical effect of distension.Material and Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted at a tertiary hospital, including all cases of induction of labor with Foley catheter between September 1, 2013 and November 30, 2015. Women were eligible if they had a singleton pregnancy with a Bishop score < 6 and a gestational age ≥ 41 weeks or a medical indication for induction of labor. The primary outcome was the Bishop score variation (difference between Bishop score before and after insertion of Foley catheter). Mode of delivery, induction-to-delivery time, uterine tachysystole with fetal decelerations, peripartum fever ≥ 38º C, maternal pain and mortality were also analyzed.Results: Within 201 inductions with Foley catheter, average increase in Bishop score after catheter placement was three (1 - 7), with only 5% (11/201) of unmodified cervix after catheter removal/extrusion. Vaginal delivery rate was 71% (142/201) and in women with a previous cesarean section (n = 40) was 37% (15/40). Average induction-to-delivery time was 38 hours (4 - 120). Uterine infection rate was 3% (6/201). There was only one case of significant vaginal bleeding which required immediate catheter removal. There has been no significative maternal or neonatal morbidity.Discussion/Conclusion: Foley catheter is a safe and effective method of cervical priming for women with an unfavorable cervix, even in the case of a previous cesarean delivery.

Estimation of CHOPS Wormhole Coverage From Rate/Time Flow Behaviors
Authors: Xiao Lei , Zhao Gang 
Published: May 2017

Summary
In wormholed reservoirs with cold-heavy-oil-production-with-sand (CHOPS) wells, regions covered by wormhole networks are estimated by analyzing rate/time flow behaviors along with pressure and sand-production data. In this work, the concept of effective wormhole coverage is proposed as a proxy of the drainage region of CHOPS wells with complex wormhole networks. The wormhole intensity is defined as the total length of wormholes per unit effective wormhole coverage. A CHOPS flow model is developed by use of the boundary-element method (BEM) to account for various boundary conditions, wormhole morphologies, and effects of wormhole dynamic growth. Transient pressure and rate responses calculated by the model are validated by comparing with analytical solutions and numerical simulations. Modeling results show that the effective wormhole coverage and wormhole intensity within the region dominantly affect the characteristics of pressure and rate/time behaviors, regardless of the detailed wormhole morphologies. Accordingly, dimensionless pressure and rate type curves are developed to match flow behaviors, such as wormhole linear- and transitional-flow regimes to estimate effective wormhole coverage of CHOPS wells with available field data. This work extends the literature with fast type-curve matching of pressure and rate/time behaviors instead of generally practiced numerical-simulation routines. A field case with rate and sand-production data is successfully analyzed to show great potential of applying the proposed approach to characterize CHOPS wormholes.

Authors: B.N. Ramesh , R. Sunil Kumar , R. Pramod , R. Jayaramiah 
Published: May 2017

Parthenium hysterophorus is commonly known as congress grass or carrot weed in India. It belongs to Asteraceae family and native to subtropics of North and South America. It is an invasive plant species that disturbs cultivated areas, roadside vegetation, gardens etc. P. hysterophorus is considered as one of the worst weeds responsible for causing health problems in animals and humans viz., dermatitis, asthma and bronchitis besides loss to agriculture and ecosystem. Nowadays, it has become one of the major weeds in almost all types of agricultural lands and other areas. Many control methods ranging from preventive, physical methods by manual uprooting, burning and allelopathic management through competitive plants like Cassia tora, Cassia uniflora Cassia sericea, have been recommended for management of P. hysterophorus. Likewise, insect Zygogramma bicolorata has proven successful in managing P. hysterophorus. Further, microorganisms like Alternaria alternata, Scerotiia sclerotiorum, Fusarium Pallidoroseum, Ralstonia solanacearum, Xanthomanas campestris are reported to infest P. hysterophorus. Use of chemical herbicides mainly glyphosate @ 2.5 kg a.i.ha-1,atrazine @ 2.6 kg a.i.ha-1,2,4-D amine @ 3 l/ ha-1, Paraquat 0.5 l/ ha-1 were proved effective in managing P. hysterophorus. No single option is suitable to control this invasive weed. Successful control of this weed can only be achieved by an integrated weed management approaches.
Effects of Vitamin D Supplementation on Insulin Sensitivity and Insulin Secretion in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes and Vitamin D Deficiency: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Authors: Gulseth Hanne L. , Wium Cecilie , Angel Kristin , Eriksen Erik F. , Birkeland Kåre I. 
Published: May 2017

OBJECTIVE
In observational studies, low vitamin D levels are associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D), impaired glucose metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and insulin secretion. We evaluated the efficacy of vitamin D supplementation on insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion in subjects with T2D and low vitamin D (25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] &lt;50 nmol/L).

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
Sixty-two men and women with T2D and vitamin D deficiency participated in a 6-month randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Participants received a single dose of 400,000 IU oral vitamin D3 or placebo, and the vitamin D group received an additional 200,000 IU D3 if serum 25(OH)D was &lt;100 nmol/L after 4 weeks. Primary end points were total Rd by euglycemic clamp with assessment of endogenous glucose production and first-phase insulin secretion by intravenous glucose tolerance test.

RESULTS
In the vitamin D group, the mean ± SD baseline serum 25(OH)D of 38.0 ± 12.6 nmol/L increased to 96.9 ± 18.3 nmol/L after 4 weeks, 73.2 ± 13.7 nmol/L after 3 months, and 53.7 ± 9.2 nmol/L after 6 months. The total exposure to 25(OH)D during 6 months (area under the curve) was 1,870 ± 192 and 1,090 ± 377 nmol/L per week in the vitamin D and placebo groups, respectively (P &lt; 0.001). Insulin sensitivity, endogenous glucose production, and glycemic control did not differ between or within groups after treatment (P = 0.52). First-phase insulin secretion did not change significantly after treatment (P = 0.10).

CONCLUSIONS
Replenishment with a large dose of vitamin D3 to patients with T2D and vitamin D deficiency did not change insulin sensitivity or insulin secretion. These findings do not support such use of therapeutic vitamin D3 supplementation to improve glucose homeostasis in patients with T2D.
