Published: December 2016

One of the major environmental problems today is the large quantity of residues produced daily. In the elementary and secondary schools, Tenente Rêgo Barros (ETRB), in the city of Belém (PA), about 3 tons of dry material are produced each semester in the schools’ green spaces. To dispose of this material in an environmentally friendly manner and to educate the pupils about environmental responsibility, an interdisciplinary and transversal project has been developed. The project uses composting as a method of environmental education and meaningful learning. This work aims to analyse the interests of pedagogical advisors, teachers, school employees and the parents of ETRB students, to examine the degree to which academic staff are involved. The study used two instruments to collect the data, a questionnaire and a freehand drawing subjected to content analysis. The results indicate that the community is in favor of the project but only 20% of the teachers could see the educative utility of the compost formation. About 70% of the school community saw the production of organic fertilizer as an end in itself and as a solution for the disposal of organic residue. Most of the faculty and employees saw the formation of compost as being restricted to a scientific subject. Hence, what is needed is a discussion by the teachers on the interdisciplinary and transversal nature of the compost formation to attain the objective of environmental education.
A Novel Survey to Examine the Relationship between Health IT Adoption and Nurse-Physician Communication
Authors: Pfeifer Eric , Manojlovich Milisa , Adler-Milstein Julia , Holmgren A 
Published: December 2016

SummaryBackground As EHR adoption in US hospitals becomes ubiquitous, a wide range of IT options are theoretically available to facilitate physician-nurse communication, but we know little about the adoption rate of specific technologies or the impact of their use.Objectives To measure adoption of hardware, software, and telephony relevant to nurse-physician communication in US hospitals. To assess the relationship between non-IT communication practices and hardware, software, and telephony adoption. To identify hospital characteristics associated with greater adoption of hardware, software, telephony, and non-IT communication practices.Methods We conducted a survey of 105 hospitals in the National Nursing Practice Network. The survey captured adoption of hardware, software, and telephony to support nurse-physician communication, along with non-IT communication practices. We calculated descriptive statistics and then created four indices, one for each category, by scoring degree of adoption of technologies or practices within each category. Next, we examined correlations between the three technology indices and the non-IT communication practices index. We used multivariate OLS regression to assess whether certain types of hospitals had higher index scores.Results The majority of hospitals surveyed have a range of hardware, software, and telephony tools available to support nurse-physician communication; we found substantial heterogeneity across hospitals in non-IT communication practices. More intensive non-IT communication was associated with greater adoption of software (r=0.31, p=0.01), but was not correlated with hardware or telephony. Medium-sized hospitals had lower adoption of software (r =−1.14,p=0.04) in comparison to small hospitals, while federally-owned hospitals had lower software (r=−2.57, p=0.02) and hardware adoption (r=−1.63, p=0.01).Conclusions The positive relationship between non-IT communication and level of software adoption suggests that there is a complementary, rather than substitutive, relationship. Our results suggest that some technologies with the potential to further enhance communication, such as CPOE and secure messaging, are not being utilized to their full potential in many hospitals.Citation: Holmgren AJ, Pfeifer E, Manojlovich M, Adler-Milstein J.

Trends and variability of atmospheric PM2.5 and PM10–2.5 concentration in the Po Valley, Italy
Authors: Bigi Alessandro , Ghermandi Grazia 
Published: December 2016

Abstract. The Po Valley is one of the largest European regions with a remarkably high concentration level of atmospheric pollutants, both for particulate and gaseous compounds. In the last decade stringent regulations on air quality standards and on anthropogenic emissions have been set by the European Commission, including also for PM2.5 and its main components since 2008. These regulations have led to an overall improvement in air quality across Europe, including the Po Valley and specifically PM10, as shown in a previous study by Bigi and Ghermandi (2014). In order to assess the trend and variability in PM2.5 in the Po Valley and its role in the decrease in PM10, we analysed daily gravimetric equivalent concentration of PM2.5 and of PM10–2.5 at 44 and 15 sites respectively across the Po Valley. The duration of the times series investigated in this work ranges from 7 to 10 years. For both PM sizes, the trend in deseasonalized monthly means, annual quantiles and in monthly frequency distribution was estimated: this showed a significant decreasing trend at several sites for both size fractions and mostly occurring in winter. All series were tested for a significant weekly periodicity (a proxy to estimate the impact of primary anthropogenic emissions), yielding positive results for summer PM2.5 and for summer and winter PM10–2.5. Hierarchical cluster analysis showed moderate variability in PM2.5 across the valley, with two to three main clusters, dividing the area in western, eastern and southern/Apennines foothill sectors. The trend in atmospheric concentration was compared with the time series of local emissions, vehicular fleet details and fuel sales, suggesting that the decrease in PM2.5 and in PM10 originates from a drop both in primary and in precursors of secondary inorganic aerosol emissions, largely ascribed to vehicular traffic. Potentially, the increase in biomass burning emissions in winter and the modest decrease in NH3 weaken an otherwise even larger drop in atmospheric concentrations.
The effects of worms, clay and biochar on CO2 emissions during production and soil application of co-composts

Published: December 2016

Abstract. In this study we evaluated CO2 emissions during composting of green wastes with clay and/or biochar in the presence and absence of worms (species of the genus Eisenia), as well as the effect of those amendments on carbon mineralization after application to soil. We added two different doses of clay, biochar or their mixture to pre-composted green wastes and monitored carbon mineralization over 21 days in the absence or presence of worms. The resulting co-composts and vermicomposts were then added to a loamy Cambisol and the CO2 emissions were monitored over 30 days in a laboratory incubation. Our results indicated that the addition of clay or clay/biochar mixture reduced carbon mineralization during co-composting without worms by up to 44 %. In the presence of worms, CO2 emissions during composting increased for all treatments except for the low clay dose. The effect of the amendments on carbon mineralization after addition to soil was small in the short term. Overall, composts increased OM mineralization, whereas vermicomposts had no effect. The presence of biochar reduced OM mineralization in soil with respect to compost and vermicompost without additives, whereas clay reduced mineralization only in the composts. Our study indicates a significant role of the conditions of composting on mineralization in soil. Therefore, the production of a low CO2 emission amendment requires optimization of feedstocks, co-composting agents and worm species.
The Potential Contribution of BRCA Mutations to Early Onset and Familial Breast Cancer in Uzbekistan
Authors: Abdikhakimov Abdulla , Tukhtaboeva Mukaddas , Adilov Bakhtiyar , Turdikulova Shahlo 
Published: December 2016

Introuduction: Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women and affects approximately 1 out of 8 females in the US. Risk of developing breast cancer is strongly influenced by genetic factors. Germ-line mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are associated with 5–10% of breast cancer incidence. To reduce the risk of developing cancer and to increase the likelihood of early detection, carriers of BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations are offered surveillance programs and effective preventive medical interventions. Identification of founder mutations of BRCA1/2 in high risk communities can have a significant impact on the management of hereditary cancer at the level of the national healthcare systems, making genetic testing more affordable and cost-effective. BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations in breast cancer patients have not been characterized in the Uzbek population. This pilot study aimed to investigate the contribution of BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation to early onset and familial cases of breast cancer in Uzbekistan.Methods: A total of 67 patients with breast cancer and 103 age-matched disease free controls were included in this study. Utilizing SYBR Green based real-time allele-specific PCR, we have analyzed DNA samples of patients with breast cancer and disease free controls to identify the following BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations: BRCA1 5382insC, BRCA1 4153delA, BRCA1 185delAG, BRCA1 300T>G, BRCA2 6174delT.Results: Three unrelated samples (4.5%) were found to be positive for the heterozygous 5382insCBRCA1 mutation, representing a possible founder mutation in the Uzbek population, supporting the need for larger studies examining the contribution of this mutation to breast cancer incidence in Uzbekistan.We did not findBRCA1 4153delA, BRCA1 185delAG, BRCA1 300T>G, and BRCA2 6174delT mutations.Conclusion: This preliminary evidence suggests a potential contribution of BRCA1 5382insC mutation to breast cancer development in Uzbek population. Taking into account a high disease penetrance in carriers of BRCA1 mutation, it seems reasonable to recommend inclusion of the 5382insC mutation test in future research on the development of screening programs for breast cancer prevention in Uzbekistan.
Beyond Dualism and Monism: Bergson's Slanted Being
Authors: Kebede Messay 
Published: December 2016

There is an old but still unresolved debate pertaining to the question of Bergsonian monism or dualism. Scholars who think that Bergson is ultimately monist clash with those who claim that he has consistently maintained a dualist position. Others speak of contradiction and point out his failure to reconcile dualism with monism. What feeds on the debate is Bergson’s undeniable change of direction: while his first book is flagrantly dualist, his second book takes a sharp turn toward monism. Without denying the intricacy generated by the change of direction, this paper argues that the originality of his position is overlooked every time that the problem is presented in terms of Bergson being dualist or monist. Notably, it contends that Bergson’s third book, Creative Evolution, overcomes both dualism and monism by removing their contradiction through a durational or slanted approach to Being.
Facing the Fall: Humanism after Nihilism in Christos Tsiolkas’s Writing
Authors: Papastergiadis Nikos 
Published: December 2016

Abstract
The novels of Christos Tsiolkas provide a powerful portrayal of the hollowing out of radical political ideologies and the disaggregation of cultural bonds. The struggle of living in a world where both Marxism and multiculturalism are seen as failures has been expressed through a narrative form that at first resulted in nihilism and more recently led to an evocation of a form of embodied solidarity with the other. In this article, I contrast the ambivalent resort to nihilism in Tsiolkas’s work with the theoretical commentary by Sloterdijk and Žižek.
Sailor Style: Representations of the Mariner in Popular Culture and Contemporary Fashion
Authors: Geczy Adam , Karaminas Vicki , Taylor Justine 
Published: December 2016

Abstract
Young and forced into celibacy during long months at sea, the sailor has become the archetype of sexual availability and a stable feature of popular culture and contemporary fashion. This article traces the emergence of the sailor’s uniform as a form of differentiation in the navy to the look of the hard muscular sailor’s body that has been made popular in the illustrations of Tom of Finland. Similarly, it will look at the sailor’s representation as a gay fantasy hero in the writings of Jean Genet and Thomas Mann as well as the sailor’s influence on contemporary fashion whose elements of design—striped of blue and white, cloth peaked cap, anchors and brass buttons have been translated into nautical themes by Coco Chanel, Kenzo, and Jean Paul Gaultier from couture collections to perfume.
What Elena Did: Dis/ability in The Vampire Diaries
Authors: McMahon-Coleman Kimberley 
Published: December 2016

Abstract
The Vampire Diaries’ Elena Gilbert has always been constructed as a powerful teenager. In the novels by L. J. Smith and in the CW television series, Elena is always portrayed as popular, and independent and as having a great deal of freedom. The teenage dreams of Elena (Nina Dobrev) are shattered in a car accident, one that precipitates profound physical changes. She struggles to accept her circumstances, and is elated when she is later offered the slim chance of a cure: that perhaps, everything can be as it was once was. Elena has not become a wheelchair user, however, as is typical; instead, she has become a vampire. In this article, representations of vampirism will be explored through the lens of acquired disability, paying particular attention to the notion of the Temporarily Able-Bodied, the implications of a search for a cure, and how these impact on identity.
Eros and Apocalypse: Herbert Marcuse in the Age of Austerity
Authors: Cremin Colin/Ciara 
Published: December 2016

Abstract
Herbert Marcuse’s influence on students and intellectuals in the Sixties is comparable to the influence that Slavoj Žižek enjoys today. Both have developed their critical theories through Marxist materialism, Hegelian idealism, and psychoanalytical theory of the subject. Both have produced polemical texts on liberal tolerance and the need for revolutionary violence, and both have invoked the idea of utopia against the ideology of there is no alternative to the market. The article situates Marcuse in today’s context of austerity rather than the context of rising affluence the “one-dimensional” “happy consciousness” was said to inhabit. Marcuse’s critique of a system that legitimates its power through the scarcities that constant exploitation and expansion breeds is especially relevant now that the logic of austerity envelops politics, society, and subjectivity. Making comparisons to Žižek, the article provides an overview of Marcuse’s ideas before considering their value in current circumstances. A case is made for why Marcuse is relevant today and why the call for the liberation of Eros remains pertinent.
Orthopaedic Surgery Residency: Perspectives of Applicants and Program Directors on Medical Student Away Rotations
Authors: O’Donnell Seth W. , Drolet Brian C. , Brower Jonathan P. , LaPorte Dawn , Eberson Craig P. 
Published: December 2016

Introduction:
Senior medical students frequently rotate at orthopaedic residency programs away from their home medical schools. However, to our knowledge, the perspective of program directors (PDs) and applicants on the value, objectives, and costs of these rotations has not been studied.

Methods:
Surveys evaluating the frequency, costs, benefits, and objectives of away rotations were distributed to all orthopaedic residency PDs in the United States and applicants in the 2014-2015 Match cycle. Data analysis was conducted to perform inferential and descriptive statistics; comparisons were made between and among PD and applicant groups using two-tailed means Student t-test and analysis of variance.

Results:
A total of 74 PD (46.0%) and 524 applicant (49.3%) responses were obtained from a national distribution. Applicants completed an average of 2.4 away rotations, with an average cost of $2,799. When stratified on self-reported likelihood of Matching, there were no substantial differences in the total number of rotations performed. The only marked differences between these groups were the United States Medical Licensing Examination Step 1 score and the number of applications to residency programs. PDs reported that significantly fewer rotations should be allowed, whereas applicants suggested higher limits (2.42 rotations versus 6.24, P < 0.001). PDs and applicants had similar perspectives on the value of away rotations; both groups reported more value in finding a “good fit” and making a good impression at the program and placed less value on the educational impact.

Discussion:
The value of orthopaedic away rotations appears more utilitarian than educational for both PDs and applicants. Rotations are performed regardless of perceived likelihood of Matching and are used by students and programs to identify a “good fit.” Therefore, given the portion of an academic year that is spent on orthopaedic rotations, findings showing perceived low educational value and marked discrepancies between the expected number of rotations by PDs and applicants indicate that the current structure of away rotations may not be well aligned with the mission of undergraduate medical education.

Published: December 2016

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the difference between education via written materials alone and written materials enhanced with hands-on simulation.
METHODS: A simulation case, educational module, and assessment regarding torsades de pointes (TdP) in an adolescent patient were designed. The written educational module was given to all study participants. A total of 92 third-year pharmacy students and 26 pharmacists participated in the study.
RESULTS: When approximately half of the participants had been to simulation, an anonymous assessment was given. Responses from those who had been to simulation and those who had not, and whether they had read, skimmed or not read the educational material were compared. A non-paired Student t-test compared the percentage correct and responses of individual questions between groups. Mean participant scores of those who went to simulation (70% ± 16%) were statistically significantly higher than mean scores of those who had not attended simulation (54% ± 21%; p&lt;0.0001). Furthermore, those who attended simulation and read the module (72% ± 3%), skimmed (68% ± 13%), or did not read the module (66% ± 16%) had higher scores than those who did not attend simulation and read the module (62% ± 26%), skimmed the module (54 ± 17%) or did not read the module (51% ± 20%).
CONCLUSIONS: Hands-on simulation significantly improved assessment scores. Overall, reading the educational module and participating in simulation yielded the best scores. Participants who attended the simulation and did not read the module had higher average scores than participants who read the educational module and did not go to simulation.
Aproximações entre história pública e história oral: o caso do Laboratório de História Oral da Univille
Authors: Coelho Ilanil , Sossai Fernando Cesar 
Published: December 2016

Neste artigo, construímos uma aproximação teórico-metodológica entre a História Pública (HP) e História Oral (HO). O texto encontra-se estruturado em três partes. Na primeira, além de apresentarmos nossa perspectiva conceitual sobre HP, refletimos sobre a historicidade da noção de HP na Inglaterra, nos Estados Unidos e no Brasil, pontuando seus diversos cruzamentos com a HO. Em seguida, com base numa ampla pesquisa documental, perscrutamos os sentidos de História Oral e o papel atribuído ao historiador e ao conhecimento histórico durante a criação do Laboratório de História Oral da Universidade da Região de Joinville (LHO/Univille). Nesse fazer, analisamos como, no início dos anos 1980, esse espaço foi concebido como parte de uma rede de produção de fontes orais que envolvia numerosas instituições de ensino superior do sul do Brasil e, também, entidades internacionais de atuação multilateral, tais como a Organização dos Estados Americanos (OEA) e a Secretaria de Cooperação Técnica Internacional do Brasil, subordinada ao então Ministério de Educação e Cultura (SUBIN/MEC). No terceiro e último item, finalizamos o texto tecendo algumas considerações sobre os limites e as possibilidades reflexivas da HP quando articulada à HO e aos recentes debates sobre o papel público do historiador na escrita da História do Tempo Presente. Palavras-chave: História Pública; História Oral; História do Tempo Presente; LHO/Univille.
Entre o porto e a história: revitalização urbana e novas historicidades no porto do Rio de Janeiro com vistas às Olimpíadas de 2016
Authors: Azevedo André Nunes , Pio Leopoldo Guilherme 
Published: December 2016

A partir da análise das ações, relatos e documentos elaborados por agentes do governo municipal relativos ao projeto o Porto Maravilha, propõe-se discutir as características e os processos urbanos atuantes sobre a zona portuária, considerando as relações entre a espacialidade e a historicidade da região. O artigo parte de uma discussão histórica que busca pensar no tempo a relação entre o porto e a cidade. Em sequência, investe em uma análise sociológica sobre o atual projeto Porto Maravilha, suas pretensões de criar uma ruptura na história da urbe, através da articulação de um discurso que vincula a decadência portuária com a necessidade de regeneração do porto para se conquistar uma reformulação da cidade como um todo. Essa pretensão de estabelecer um marco de ruptura por parte da prefeitura do Rio de Janeiro também esconde as continuidades que esse projeto estabelece com outros projetos pensados para a cidade. O artigo discute também a maneira como o referido plano de reformulação do porto busca se estabelecer a despeito da historicidade e da espacialidade da região. Palavras-chave: Portos – Rio de Janeiro; Urbanização - Rio de Janeiro; Rio de Janeiro (RJ) - Prefeitura.
O cotidiano, os “regimes de historicidade” e a memória
Authors: Mello Juçara da Silva Barbosa de 
Published: December 2016

O presente artigo consiste numa reflexão acerca da memória, de suas tensões com a história e das relações de ambas, em suas especificidades e interdependências, com a noção de regimes de historicidade do historiador francês François Hartog. Seu diálogo com as categorias de espaço de experiência e horizonte de expectativa do historiador alemão Reinhart Koselleck permite perceber como modos distintos de articulação entre passado, presente e futuro influenciam enormemente nas dinâmicas de funcionamento da memória, gerando efeitos nas experiências dos sujeitos históricos no tempo. Palavras-chave: Memória; Historiografia; Regimes de Historicidade.
