Authors: Parejo-Cuéllar Macarena-María , Vivas Moreno Agustín , Martín-Pena Daniel 
Published: December 2017

Las radios universitarias se han convertido en un instrumento fundamental para la ciencia a la hora de establecer su conexión directa con la sociedad. Estas emisoras institucionales permiten elaborar contenidos alternativos y compartirlos a través de canales tan populares como la red de redes. Así lo ha puesto de manifiesto el proyecto de divulgación científica “Semillas de Ciencia”. Esta iniciativa ha permitido no sólo poner en marcha un espacio compartido entre más de un centenar de radios iberoamericanas sino que además ha supuesto realizar un repaso por los espacios que sobre I+D+i confeccionan las distintas estaciones. Esta fonoteca elaborada en el marco del proyecto nos permite observar cómo la ciencia es una constante en las parrillas radiofónicas de las universidades y por ende una preocupación de los departamentos de comunicación de estas organizaciones educativas. Analizar tanto cuantitativa como cualitativamente estos espacios es el propósito del estudio que aquí se presenta.

Authors: Ivars-Nicolás Begoña , Zaragoza-Fuster Teresa 
Published: December 2017

El creciente consumo multipantalla de contenidos de ficción es clave en la transformación de los medios audiovisuales. La búsqueda de estrategias de comunicación no lineal para captar la audiencia a través de múltiples plataformas fomenta el mensaje transmedia. La transmedialidad no se limita a la forma de narrar, sino también al modo de producir y difundir una historia. El Laboratorio de Radio Televisión Española, Lab RTVE, destaca en España por su impulso innovador en la producción de contenidos audiovisuales experimentando y desarrollando nuevas narrativas y formatos, así como detectando tendencias. Ejemplo de ello son series como El Caso, Águila Roja o El Ministerio del Tiempo. Este texto valora el uso de la narrativa transmedia de los contenidos de ficción de Lab RTVE en el 2015 y 2016. Se elabora una rúbrica con elementos que constituyen que un producto sea narrativamente transmedia. Además, cada ítem se analiza cualitativamente estableciendo el grado de transmedialidad del producto. Destaca la transmedialidad apoyada en la inmersividad del usuario como estrategia de difusión de las series de ficción y la innovación en cuanto al modo de expandir historias. Además, se obtiene una herramienta de análisis extrapolable a otros productos audiovisuales.

Published: December 2017

En la sociedad actual en la que las redes sociales permiten que las organizaciones establezcan diálogos e interactúen con sus públicos, la red de microblogging Twitter se presenta como una opción interesante para las marcas. Si bien numerosos estudios confirman que las empresas no aprovecha el potencial dialógico que ofrecen las redes sociales, la utilización de las mismas como herramienta de servicio de atención al cliente se convierte en una práctica en auge .La agilidad e inmediatez de Twitter facilita la rapidez en el tiempo de respuesta y genera directamente satisfacción y confianza en los usuarios. El objetivo de este estudio se basa en analizar el perfil de Twitter de Mercadona para comprobar en qué medida aprovecha este canal como herramienta de atención al cliente. Para ello, en primer lugar se recurre a la metodología cuantitativa y posteriormente se realiza un análisis de contenido de 936 tuits (publicados entre el 21 y 30 de noviembre de 2016). Los principales resultados ponen de manifiesto que la Atención al Cliente es uno de los principales usos que Mercadona trata de ofrecer a través de su cuenta de Twitter, sin embargo solo resuelve o da solución directa a un 25% de las cuestiones planteadas.

Place reference in Kula conversation
Authors: Williams Nicholas 
Published: December 2017

AbstractPlace reference is pervasive in talk-in-interaction but remains less well understood than reference to persons. This paper explores place reference in Kula, an endangered non-Austronesian language of the Timor-Alor-Pantar family in southeastern Indonesia. Using a Conversation Analytic approach, it provides a description of both verbal and nonverbal resources for achieving successful reference to place in Kula. The paper also contributes to the cross-linguistic study of reference in conversation. The organization of practices for place reference in interaction in Kula is suggested to conform to more generic organizational principles, e.g. preferences for minimization and recognition, and fitting the formulation to the task-at-hand, while also reflecting properties specific to Kula, e.g. the use of elevationals in formulations of place reference.

Abstract
Improving the applicability of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) by carbon fiber/glass fiber reinforcement is of great interest. Glass fiber (GF)/carbon fiber (CF)/PET hybrid composites were fabricated by direct fiber feeding injection molding (DFFIM) process. The aim of DFFIM is to obtain longer fibers in composites in order to improve their mechanical properties. In this study, the mechanical properties of GF/PET composites fabricated by conventional injection molding and hybrid GF/CF/PET composites fabricated by DFFIM process were investigated. The influence of GF and CF volume fractions on fiber distribution, fiber orientation, and fiber length is discussed. Fiber distribution status was quantitatively measured by the fiber distribution index. Fiber agglomeration problem was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The results indicate that incorporating CF in GF/CF/PET hybrid composites by the DFFIM process greatly enhances mechanical performance even when only a small amount of CF is added. Too high GF content leads to less effective CF hybridization because it causes poor fiber distribution and poor fiber orientation and intensifies fiber attrition. The ideal volume fractions of GF and CF for fabricating GF/CF/PET hybrid composites by using DFFIM are provided.
A Sorption Study between Ophthalmic Drugs and Multi Dose Eyedroppers in Simulated Use Conditions
Authors: Le Basle Yoann , Chennell Philip , Sautou Valérie 
Published: December 2017

AbstractPreservative free ophthalmic formulations need to be packaged either as single doses, or using specially designed sterility preserving multidose eyedroppers. Our objective was to evaluate potential sorption phenomena between a device with a silicone sterility preserving membrane and the delivered drops of several ophthalmic solutions. Cyclosporine, rifamycin, latanoprost, timolol and norfloxacin were used as model drugs. Quantification of the active substance in delivered drops (1 to 4 drops per day) from low density polyethylene (LDPE) bottles without any sterility preserving device and from LDPE bottles with a sterility preserving silicone membrane (LDPE-Si) was performed for 14 days (n≥3), using validated HPLC methods. For cyclosporine, mean concentrations did not vary by more than 10 % from reference concentrations for either LDPE or LDPE-Si eyedroppers, but for LDPE-Si, the concentrations of the 1 mg.ml-1 cyclosporine micellar solution were found to be significantly lower than for those from LDPE eyedroppers (p=0.0127). For LDPE-Si, rifamycin mean concentrations decreased by 11.2 % throughout the 14 day study period, but didn’t vary by more than 10 % for LDPE and glass eyedroppers. However, rifamycin concentrations from LDPE-Si were not significantly different from those from LDPE eyedroppers. For latanoprost, whilst mean concentrations did not vary by more than 10 % from reference concentration for LDPE eyedroppers, for LDPE-Si eyedroppers concentrations decreased by 76.4 % at their lowest concentration and never returned to their initial level. For timolol and norfloxacin, mean concentrations did not vary by more than 10 % for either LDPE or LDPE-Si eyedroppers and no significant difference was found between the 2 eyedroppers concentrations. Our results are in favor of an absence of significant sorption between LDPE-Si eyedroppers for timolol or norfloxacin ophthalmic solutions. Further studies should be performed on cyclosporine ophthalmic micellar solutions and rifamycin ophthalmic solutions before any definite conclusions can be made. Finally, our results show that latanoprost ophthalmic solutions shouldn’t be used with LDPE-Si eyedroppers as the loss of active substance would cause a sever under-dosing.
Chemical characterization and radiation exposure from the natural radioactivity in Romanian building materials
Authors: Calin Marian Romeo , Radulescu Ileana , Chiper Diana , Barna Catalina , Cimpeanu Catalina 
Published: December 2017

Abstract
Buildings materials contain natural primordial radionuclides of 40K, 232Th and 226Ra (238U). The research measures activity concentrations of 40K, 232Th and 226Ra in different types of raw materials with different origins: volcanic, calcareous, zirconium minerals, silico-aluminous etc., used in Romanian building industry. This is important as these materials lead to an exposure of the public and workers from their ionizing radiations. Based on these activity concentrations an estimation of the radiological hazard is also made by analyzing radiological parameters such as radium equivalent activity (Ra
eq), absorbed dose (D), annual effective dose equivalent (AEDE), external hazard index (H
ex), internal hazard index (H
in), gamma and alpha index and dose criterion. Important conclusions can be drawn from the analysis of these indexes in respect with the radiological hazard for the population health by using these materials. Most of materials measured in this work showed fairly low levels of radioactivity.
Peer-to-Peer Lending – A (Financial Stability) Risk Perspective
Authors: Käfer Benjamin 
Published: December 2017

Abstract
The aim of this survey article is to discuss P2P lending, a subcategory of crowdfunding, from a (financial stability) risk perspective. The discussion focuses on a number of dimensions such as the role of soft information, herding, platform default risk, liquidity risk, and the institutionalization of P2P markets. Overall, we conclude that P2P lending is more risky than traditional banking. However, it is important to recognize that a constant conclusion would be misleading. P2P platforms have evolved and changed their appearance markedly over time, which implies that although our final conclusion of increased riskiness through P2P markets remains valid over time, it is based on different arguments at different points in time.

Abstract

Objectives
DNA repair mechanisms work insufficiently in T2DM patients and hyperglycemia seen in diabetes disturbs the oxidant-antioxidant balance thus cause oxidative damage on DNA. The effects of the DNA repair genes’ have not yet been investigated on diabetes. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between APE1 Asp148Glu and XPG Asp1104His polymorphisms with T2DM in the Turkish population.

Material and methods
Sixty-five T2DM patients and 54 healthy individuals were included to this study as control. The polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism techniques were used.

Results
When the study groups were compared, serum HDL-cholesterol levels were found statistically elevated in the controls. Once the APE1 Asp148Glu polymorphism distribution between the patient and control groups was investigated, the Glu/Glu genotype ratio was found significantly higher in the control group. Furthermore, the Asp/Glu genotype and the Asp allele prevalences were observed to be higher in the patient group. Also, patients with the Asp/Asp genotype had higher serum HDL-cholesterol levels than the others.

Conclusion
Despite the small number of subjects included, it could be interpreted that the Glu allele of the APE1 Asp148Glu polymorphism might be protective against and the Asp allele may be contributing to the development of diabetes.
Investigation of Asphalt Track Behavior Under Cyclic Loading: Full-Scale Testing and Numerical Simulation
Authors: Lee Seong-Hyeok , Vo Hai V. , Park Dae-Wook 
Published: December 2017

Abstract
In this study, the full-scale testing of asphalt track and numerical simulation using the viscoelastic material property of asphalt mixtures under cyclic loading was investigated. Dynamic modulus tests were conducted to characterize the linear viscoelastic property of asphalt mixtures. The full-scale test was performed to simulate train movement on the rail track with cyclic loading using the rail load simulator. The full-scale test and numerical simulations were implemented on three different layers of the asphalt with different thicknesses. The results were then subsequently compared to prove the reliability of the methods. The laboratory testing results indicate that the asphalt mixture for the surface layer, a polymer-modified asphalt, provides a high elastic modulus and behaves more elastically at low-frequency loading compared to the conventional mixtures for the intermediate and base layers. The full-scale test indicates that all cases of asphalt layer thickness satisfy the settlement criteria. However, only the asphalt layer with a 35-cm thickness attains the earth pressure requirement. The numerical simulation results are reasonable and reliable by fitting the measurement curves of cyclic loading test.
Globalization, Gender, and Development
Authors: Baker Phyllis L. , Leicht Kevin T. 
Published: December 2017

Research and policy analysis on gender, development, and globalization have focused extensively on the changing roles and social status of women as one of the keys to reaching global development goals and improving social well-being. Yet at the same time as scholars and advocates highlight the importance of women's autonomy as a key to economic development, the international media are filled with tales and reports of public gang rapes, acid burnings, honor killings, and gang kidnapping and enslavement. We combine observations about growing class inequality among men, theories of male overcompensation, insights on the global crisis of patriarchy, and transaction-cost analyses of asset specificity and sunk costs to explain this gender-based violence.
The data required to assess the causes, prevalence, and effects of public gender-based violence are sparse, and this affects our ability to come to definitive conclusions and policy recommendations. In addition to recommending better and more vigorous data collection on public gender-based violence directed at women and girls, we briefly discuss two possible scenarios that could frustrate attempts to improve the status of women in rapidly developing societies or lead to long-term, sustainable gains.

Objective
The impact of childhood differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) on psychosocial development has not yet been studied. The aim of this study was to evaluate the achievement of psychosocial developmental milestones in long-term survivors of childhood DTC.

Design and methods
Survivors of childhood DTC diagnosed between 1970 and 2013 were included. Reasons for exclusion were age <18 or >35 years at follow-up, a follow-up period <5 years or diagnosis with DTC as a second malignant neoplasm. Survivors gathered peer controls of similar age and sex (n = 30). A comparison group non-affected with cancer (n = 508) and other childhood cancer survivors (CCS) were also used to compare psychosocial development. To assess the achievement of psychosocial milestones (social, autonomy and psychosexual development), the course of life questionnaire (CoLQ) was used.

Results
We included 39 survivors of childhood DTC (response rate 83.0%, mean age at diagnosis 15.6 years, and mean age at evaluation 26.1 years). CoLQ scores did not significantly differ between survivors of childhood DTC and the two non-affected groups. CoLQ scores of childhood DTC survivors were compared to scores of other CCS diagnosed at similar ages (n = 76). DTC survivors scored significantly higher on social development than other CCS, but scores were similar on autonomy and psychosexual developmental scales.

Conclusions
Survivors of childhood DTC showed similar development on social, autonomy, and psychosexual domains compared to non-affected individuals. Social development was slightly more favorable in DTC survivors than in other CCS, but was similar on autonomy and psychosexual domains.

Published: December 2017

Abstract
Meiosis is a specialized cell division that generates gametes, such as eggs and sperm. Errors in meiosis result in miscarriages and are the leading cause of birth defects; however, the molecular origins of these defects remain unknown. Studies in model organisms are beginning to identify the genes and pathways important for meiosis, but the parts list is still poorly defined. Here we present a comprehensive catalog of genes important for meiosis in the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Our genome-wide functional screen surveyed all nonessential genes for roles in chromosome segregation and spore formation. Novel genes important at distinct stages of the meiotic chromosome segregation and differentiation program were identified. Preliminary characterization implicated three of these genes in centrosome/spindle pole body, centromere, and cohesion function. Our findings represent a near-complete parts list of genes important for meiosis in fission yeast, providing a valuable resource to advance our molecular understanding of meiosis.

In the present study, Al2O3-40% TiO2 composite coatings were fabricated on CT3 steel substrate by plasma spraying technique. The coatings were sealed with aluminum phosphate solution contained 5 wt.% Al2O3 nanoparticles and then heat treated at 400oC. The permeability of aluminum phosphate solution, phase composition, structure morphology, microhardness and wear resistance of the coating were studied. The study results phase composition of the coatings showed that the coatings were composed γ-Al2O3 and Al2TiO5 phase. The compounds AlPO4 and Al(PO3)3 were found in the coating sealed with aluminum phosphate. The presence of Al2O3 nanoparticles was increased the permeability of the aluminum phosphate solution into the coating. The coatings sealed with aluminum phosphate contained Al2O3 nanoparticles have lower density, higher hardness and wear resistance higher than the coating sealed with aluminum phosphate uncontain Al2O3 nanoparticles and the unsealed coating.
OPTIMIZATION OF THE DNA EXTRACTION PROTOCOL FROM WOOD SAMPLE BY RESPONSE SURFACE METHODS – CENTRAL COMPOSITE DESIGN

Published: December 2017

The DNA extraction is one of the first steps and plays animportant role in study on genome of any species on earth. Depending on the purpose and object of study, DNA can be extracted from various tissues.For plants, DNA is usually extracted from the leaves, seeds and young buds, in which these tissues are the best DNA source and can be extracted easily. However, the collection of sample from mature trees, which are generally tall, isdifficult and need more facilities. Consequently, it leads to be limited for the study scope.The proposed solutionis to use a wood tissue instead ofthe leaves, seeds and young due to they are easily collected. The problem is very difficult to extract high quality DNA from the wood tissue (Verbylaite et al., 2010). However, if the extraction of DNA from wood tissue would besuccessful, it would open up many research directions and could turn techniques that seemed unfeasible before into the effective solution. Extracting and analyzing DNA from dried wood and processed wood could be developed to explore the possibility of identifying the species and theirorigin. This could be greatly useful for determining the legality of wood log and wood products, and for deterring trade in illegal wood products (Tsumura et al.,2011). Currently, there are some commercialized kits, enabling DNA extraction from wood more easily,e.g. DNeasy Plant Mini Kit (Qiagen), Nucleospin Plant II (Macherey-Nagel), Genomic DNA Purification Kit (Fermentas) and innuPREP Plant DNA Kit (Analytik Jena). However, the commercial Kitsare expensive. Meanwhile, there are some cheaper methods, applying for DNA extraction from wood successfully, such as SDS method (Edwards et al.,1991; Goodwin and Lee, 1993), protein precipitation protocol (Dellaporta et al., 1983; Fang et al., 1992), especially CTAB method, obtaining with a high DNA concentration (Doyle J and Doyle H., 1987). The DNA extracted by CTAB protocol is less pure; however, they are still suitable to use in molecular biology. The objective of this work was to optimize the conditions of CTAB protocol for DNA extraction from wood. The two parameters centrifugation time and volume ratio of isopropanol to solutions containing DNA that affect the yield and quality DNA were explored using the response surface methodology (RSM). The central composite design (CCD) was used to obtain the experimental design matrix. This approach has limited number of actual experiments performed where as allowing probing into possible interaction between these parameters studied and their effect on quantity and quality DNA.
