Exploring the Barriers of Public Digital Cultural Resources Integration in China: A Survey
Authors: Xiao Ximing , Wanyan Dengdeng 
Published: December 2015

AbstractIn recent years, stronger collaboration between China’s public cultural institutions had led to the creation of several public digital cultural resources integration projects, yet certain factors have still hindered the development of the digital integration. In this study, the potential impeding factors were found via literature research and interviews. A questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate the opinions of employees at China’s public cultural institutions regarding these factors. It can be concluded from the survey that the barriers are the institutions’ lack of willingness and capacity to cooperate, segmented management systems, lack of management for the integration projects, intellectual property problems, insufficient policy support, lack of unified standards, lack of diverse sources of funding, and lack of awareness by governments and institutions. The solutions are also discussed.
Librarians Outside of Libraries: The Experiences of Library and Information Science Graduates Working Outside of Libraries
Authors: Fraser-Arnott Melissa A. 
Published: December 2015

AbstractThis article explores the professional experiences of library and information science (LIS) graduates who pursue non-library roles. The changes impacting the LIS profession make this an important topic as Masters of Library and Information Science programs are increasingly marketing their programs as preparing students for a wide range of professional opportunities. In particular, this article explores some of the types of non-library roles pursued by LIS graduates, the transferable competencies that allow LIS graduates to transition into these work roles, how these professionals develop the skills and competencies that they need to transfer into new employment opportunities, and the desired career paths and career planning activities of LIS graduates working in non-library roles. These data were collected in a grounded theory study involving 20 LIS graduates working in a range of non-library roles. This research may help LIS educators to better prepare their students for diverse career opportunities and LIS program administrators to promote their programs to a wider range of potential students.
Impact of the activities of local government on the quality of life of households, in the opinion of the inhabitants, of the border commune, Hanna
Authors: Siedlecka Agnieszka 
Published: December 2015

Abstract
The issue of quality of life is an interdisciplinary issue. Non-economic and economic factors influence its level. The aim of the study is a subjective assessment of the quality of life for residents of the border commune of Hanna and to assess the impact of investment in the commune on its level.
The article attempts to answer the following question. What types of investment affect the quality of life of residents to the greatest extent? In order to achieve these objectives, surveys were conducted for the period January – April 2014. The samples for the research were not made by randomised choice, but instead used the snowball method. The results indicated that the subjective assessment of the quality of life for residents is high. It can be said that in the opinion of the respondents, quality of life has not changed significantly over the past five years. Respondents recognize the affect that the important role of the commune’s activities has on the quality of life of households; particularly investments from EU funds.

Mallomonas Camerunensis Sp. Nov. (Chrysophyceae, Stramenopiles) From A Shallow Puddle In The Guineo-Congolian Rainforest (Cameroon)
Authors: Piątek Jolanta 
Published: December 2015

AbstractA new silica-scaled chrysophyte species, Mallomonas camerunensis J. Piątek, is described and illustrated from a shallow puddle in the Guineo-Congolian rainforest in Cameroon. This species belongs to section Papillosae and series Papillosa. It is similar to other Mallomonas species placed in Papillosa, such as M. binocularis Siver, M. calceolus D. E. Bradley, M. delanciana Siver, M. kalinae Řezáčová, M. papillosa K. Harris & D. E. Bradley, M. paxillata (D. E. Bradley) L. Ş. Péterfi & Momeu, M. rasilis Dürrschm. and M. tropica Dürrschm. & Croome, but differs from them in several morphological characters warranting recognition as a distinct species. The dome of M. camerunensis is clearly delimited and ornamented with papillae and ribs. The scales lack an anterior submarginal rib, while the posterior rim and V-rib are smooth and unornamented. The shield is thickly ornamented with papillae (18–22 papillae per scale width). The species is described and illustrated using light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy.
Native and non-native uses of English modal particles. The case of "surely" and "for sure"
Authors: Rozumko Agata 
Published: December 2015

AbstractIt has frequently been noted that non-native speakers of English find it difficult to express their views with the appropriate degree of conviction. However, many of the problems which non-native speakers have with specific modal expressions are still waiting to be identified. The aim of this paper is to compare native and non-native (student) uses of two English epistemics: "surely" and "for sure". The students' uses are mostly examined with reference to PICLE (the Polish subsection of the International Corpus of Learner English), while native uses are analyzed on the basis of two corpora of texts written by native speakers of English available at the PICLE website, the British National Corpus, and scholarly publications concerning the two particles. The study demonstrates that Polish students tend to wrongly assume the functions of surely and for sure to be identical with the functions of the Polish expression "na pewno" (a literal equivalent of "for sure" with a broader range of uses). In consequence, they use the challenging and pressure-building particle "surely" in contexts which require neutral epistemic adverbs, such as "clearly". They also tend to put "for sure" in positions characteristic of epistemic adverbs, and use it in formal discourse.
Endogenous spontaneous ultraweak photon emission in the formation of eye-specific retinogeniculate projections before birth
Authors: Bókkon István , Scholkmann Felix , Salari Vahid , Császár Noémi , Kapócs Gábor 
Published: December 2015

AbstractIn 1963, it was suggested [Sperry, R.W. (1963). Chemoaffinity in the orderly growth of nerve fiber patterns and connections. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 50, 703–710.] that molecular cues can direct the development of orderly connections between the eye and the brain (the “chemoaffinity hypothesis”). In the same year, the amazing degree of functional accuracy of the visual pathway in the absence of any external light/photon perception prior to birth [Wiesel, T.N and Hubel, D.H. (1963). Single-cell responses in striate cortex of kittens deprived of vision in one eye. J. Neurophysiol. 26, 1003–1017.] was discovered. These recognitions revealed that the wiring of the visual system relies on innate cues. However, how the eye-specific retinogeniculate pathway can be developed before birth without any visual experience is still an unresolved issue. In the present paper, we suggest that Müller cells (functioning as optical fibers), Müller cell cone (i.e. the inner half of the foveola that is created of an inverted cone-shaped zone of Müller cells), discrete retinal noise of rods, and intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells might have key functions by means of retinal spontaneous ultraweak photon emission in the development of eye-specific retinogeniculate pathways prior to birth.
Clinical, Histological and Dermoscopic Findings in Familial Cylindromatosis: a Report of Two Cases
Authors: Tiodorović Danica , Krstić Miljan 
Published: December 2015

Abstract
Cylindromas are benign appendage tumors mainly found on the scalp, but they can occur on any hair-bearing skin. Mutations in the cylindromatosis (CYLD) gene, a tumor suppressor gene located on chromosome 16q12–13, are responsible for multiple cylindromas, which are usually inherited in an autosomal dominant way, as in familial cylindromatosis and Brooke-Spiegler syndrome. The latter is characterized by the presence of multiple cylindromas, multiple trichoepitheliomas and spiradenomas. Based on genetic studies and the identification of heterozygous mutations in the same CYLD gene in familial cylindromatosis, multiple familial trichoepitheliomas, and the Brooke–Spiegler syndrome, it is suggested that these three conditions have the same genetic basis and are phenotypic expressions of the same disease. The diagnosis of each of the tree conditions is based on the dominant tumor type: cylindroma in familiar cyindromas, trichoepithelioma in multiple familial trichoepitheliomas, or a variety of skin appendage tumors including cylindromas, spiradenomas and trichoepitheliomas in Brooke-Spiegler syndrome. The onset of the disease is usually in the early adulthood, but may also occur in childhood or adolescence.
We report on two sisters, 37 and 43 years of age, with multiple cylindromas on the face and the scalp. Both patients reported that their mother also had multiple tumors on her head. Dermoscopy revealed arborizing vessels on a white-ivory or pink background, resembling dermoscopic features of basal cell carcinoma, though histopathological analysis revealed cylindroma.
In conclusion, in this study we report two cases of a very rare familial cylindromatosis, presenting with multiple benign cylidromas with dermoscopic features of basal cell carcinoma. All patients with multiple cylindromas in familial cylindromatosis should be counseled about increased risk for developing further tumors. Systemic and multidisciplinary approach with follow up is strongly recommended.

Abstract
Studies of informal learning at universities have indicated that social online network Facebook is used for learning purposes. Understanding of self-regulated academic learning processes in which students and their instructors are involved is very important for successful application and use of online social networks in university teaching and learning. This aims to reveal the learning that takes place in online social networks beyond the boundaries of universities such as Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin and related. Research object is the conditions and strategies of self-regulated learning of university students. Research question in this study is the following: “What situations, actions, interactions and consequences construct the content of self-regulated learning in a social network account?” The methodology of constructivist Grounded theory was implemented in the study. The theoretical sampling was conducted in order to involve the research participants into the study and receive the answers to the research question. For data collection were used the individual semi-structured interviews. Convergence of the virtual and the living realities is the core of university student’s self-regulated learning within the virtual space. In total in the study participated 12 research participants. Findings showed that convergence of the virtual and living realities explains university students’ self-regulated learning within the two contexts: the first, academic communication and the second, virtual learning. Self-regulated learning is affected and formed by the learner dependent and the organization dependent conditions. Two learning contexts emerged from analysis of our research data: virtual learning and academic communication. University students SRL strategies can be separated into two categories: self- oriented strategies and strategies, oriented towards others. The research findings revealed four types of intervening factors: technological, image formation, personal and psychosocial. By concluding it could be highlighted that professors and instructors are important players in the process of self-regulated learning of university students. The data grounded in the voices of academics, instructors and administrative staff can provide a deeper understanding of students’ self-regulated learning and enrich the learning results.

Published: December 2015

Abstract
Structural, mechanical, and electronic properties of orthorhombic rhenium phosphide (Re2P) are systematically investigated by using first principles calculations. The elastic constants and anisotropy of elastic properties are obtained. The metallic character of Re2P is demonstrated by density of state calculations. The quasi-harmonic Debye model is applied to the study of the thermodynamic properties. The thermal expansion, heat capacities, and Grüneisen parameter on the temperature and pressure have been determined as a function of temperature and pressure in the pressure range from 0 to 100 GPa and the temperature range from 0 to 1600 K.

Effect of scaling and root planing with and without adjunct use of an essential-oil-based mouthwash on whole salivary interleukin-1β levels in patients with periodontal disease: A short-term follow-up study
Authors: Alshehri Mohammad , Alshehri Fahad Ali , Alshail Faisal 
Published: December 2015

Objective
The aim of the present short-term follow-up study was to assess the effect of scaling and root planing (SRP) with and without adjunct use of an essential-oil-based mouthwash (EOBM) on whole salivary interleukin (IL)-1beta (β) levels in patients with periodontal disease.

Methods
Ninety individuals with periodontal disease were divided into two groups. Patients in group 1 underwent SRP and were instructed to rinse with 10 mL of an EOBM twice daily for 30 days. Patients in group 2 underwent SRP and were instructed to rinse with 10 mL of water twice daily for 30 days. Whole saliva samples were collected, and IL-1β levels were measured at baseline and after 60 days of treatment. P-values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant.

Results
At baseline, whole salivary IL-1β levels were comparable among patients in groups 1 (135.6 ± 13.5 μg/mL) and 2 (141.2 ± 5.4 μg/mL). After 60 days of follow-up, there is a significant decrease in whole salivary IL-1β levels among patients in group 1 (10.2 ± 6.4 μg/mL) as compared to those in group 2 (56.6 ± 10.2 μg/mL) (P < 0.01).

Conclusion
SRP, when performed with adjunct use of an EOBM, is more effective in reducing whole salivary IL-1β levels as compared to when SRP is performed without the use of an EOBM.
