Behavioral genetics in Polish print news media between 2000 and 2014
Authors: Domaradzki Jan 
Published: December 2016

Cel pracyCelem tekstu jest ukazanie, jak media drukowane w Polsce opisują związki genetyki z zachowaniem i jakie wizerunki genetyki behawioralnej w nich dominują.MetodaDokonano analizy treści i analizy ramowej 72 artykułów prasowych opublikowanych w latach 2000-2014 na łamach czterech polskich tygodników: Polityka, Wprost, Newsweek Polska i Przekrój.WynikiWe wszystkich publikacjach opisywano w sumie dwadzieścia jeden różnych zachowań, do których opisu wykorzystywano sześć głównych ram interpretacyjnych: esencjalną, materialną, deterministyczną, probabilistyczną, optymistyczną i pesymistyczną. Szczególnie wyraźna była przy tym tendencja do opisywania ludzkiego zachowania w kategoriach genetycznego esencjalizmu, redukcjonizmu i determinizmu. Niemal połowa publikacji koncentrowała się bowiem na genetycznych uwarunkowaniach zachowań i brak w nich było odniesień do uwarunkowań poligenowych czy środowiskowych. Nadto, choć większość artykułów miała charakter zbalansowany, to częściej akcentowano korzyści płynących z odkrycia niż potencjalne zagrożenia. Analizowane tygodniki faworyzowały również te wiadomości, które potwierdzały istnienie genetycznych uwarunkowań kosztem tych, które im przeczyły. Jedna trzecia publikacji poruszała społeczne, etyczne i prawne konsekwencje rozwoju genetyki behawioralnej.WnioskiZłożony i abstrakcyjny charakter wiedzy genetycznej sprawia, że genetyka behawioralna jest często przedstawiana w prasie w sposób nadmiernie uproszczony, co może prowadzić błędnego odbioru skomplikowanych relacji zachodzących między zachowaniem, genami i środowiskiem. Tym samym, media drukowane przyczyniają się do genetyzacji zachowań. Stąd, konieczne jest poprawienie jakości dziennikarstwa naukowego w kwestii genetyki behawioralnej, a także edukacja badaczy na temat skutecznej komunikacji z mediami.

Published: December 2016

Cel pracyPrzewlekła obturacyjna choroba płuc (POChP) i astma oskrzelowa stanowią wyzwanie dla zdrowia publicznego, ze względu na rozpowszechnienie i negatywne skutki. Czynniki psychiczne mają wpływ na stan zdrowia i zachowanie osób z chorobami obturacyjnymi. Celem pracy była ocena poziomu lęku, cech osobowości i radzenia sobie ze stresem u osób chorych i porównanie z grupą osób zdrowych.MetodaBadanie przeprowadzono na grupie 150 osób – z astmą, z POChP i zdrowymi (śr wieku = 56,0±16,00). W badaniu wykorzystano ankietę socjodemograficzną, Inwentarz Osobowości NEO-FFI, Inwentarz Stanu i Cechy Lęku oraz Inwentarz do Pomiaru Radzenia Sobie ze Stresem Mini-COPE. Wykorzystując regresję logistyczną oceniono, które z badanych zmiennych najlepiej różnicowały badanych zdrowych i chorych.WynikiOsoby z astmą i POChP charakteryzowały się istotnie niższym sumienności, otwartości na doświadczenia, aktywnego radzenia sobie oraz planowania oraz wyższym poziomem neurotyczności, lęku-cechy oraz większą tendencją do zaprzestawania działań. Zmienne: cecha lęku, otwartość na doświadczenia, pozytywne przewartościowanie, akceptacja, poczucie humoru i zaprzestanie działań okazały się najlepiej odróżniać osoby z chorobami pulmonologicznymi od osób zdrowych.WnioskiUzyskane wyniki wskazują na konieczność podjęcia działań interwencyjnych w zakresie funkcjonowania psychicznego badanych grup chorych.

Published: December 2016

Cel pracyKwestionariusz oceny objawów hipomaniakalnych (Hypomania Checklist-HCL) stał się ważnym narzędziem do oceny objawów hipomanii u osób z chorobami afektywnymi i populacji ogólnej. Kwestionariusz HCL-33, zawierający 33 objawy, to nowy instrument, który posiada wersję dla oceny przez obserwatora z zewnątrz. Celem niniejszego badania jest ocena zgodności między samooceną pacjenta i oceną przez osobę z zewnątrz (członków rodziny i inne bliskie osoby) przy użyciu skali HCL-33 u polskich pacjentów z chorobą afektywną dwubiegunową (ChAD).MetodaAnalizowano dane uzyskane od 81 pacjentów z ChAD będących w eutymii, rekrutowanych z Kliniki Psychiatrii Dorosłych UM w Poznaniu oraz Zakładu Zaburzeń Afektywnych Katedry Psychiatrii CM UJ w Krakowie. Wszyscy pacjenci wypełnili kwestionariusz HCL-33, a dla każdego pacjenta, osoba znacząca (bliska) wypełniła HCL-33 w wersji dla oceny zewnętrznej.WynikiSpośród 33 objawów, wystarczającą zgodność (czynnik kappa <0,05) stwierdzono w przypadku 13 spośród 19 pytań typu "aktywność/podwyższony nastrój" (czynnik 1) i dla wszystkich 14 punktów "rozdrażnienie/podejmowanie ryzyka” (czynnik 2). Brak wystarczającej zgodności stwierdzono dla 6 pozycji czynnika 1 i na pytanie o najdłuższy okres hipomanii. Stopień zgodności między oceną pacjenta i oceną zewnętrzną nie zależał od płci, mieszkania razem lub podtypu relacji z pacjentem.WnioskiUzyskane wyniki wskazują na zgodność samooceny i oceny zewnętrznej w 27 objawach (82%) kwestionariusza HCL-33. Przyszły status objawów co do których nie wykazano wystarczającej spójności powinien zostać poddany dyskusji. Ograniczeniem badania jest stosunkowo mała liczba badanych, rekrutowanych z zaledwie dwóch ośrodków, co może nie być reprezentatywne dla populacji polskiej.

Authors: Şahin Süleyman 
Published: December 2016

The objective of this study is to examine the opinions of the individuals partaking in recreational activities on their leisure satisfaction levels in consideration of different variables. A total of 220 public employees, 150 (68.2%) of whom were "Male" and 70 (31.8%) of whom were "Female" selected by purposeful sampling method participated in the study voluntarily to this end. Screening model was utilized in the research. The sample of the study comprised the public employees of Avcılar district municipality of Istanbul province. In addition to the personal information form created through the researcher, "Leisure Satisfaction Scale" developed by Beard and Ragheb (1980) and adapted to Turkish through Karlı et al. (2008) was employed as data collection tool in the research. Percent (%) and frequency (f) methods were utilized for determining the distribution of personal information of participants while the Shapiro–Wilk test of normality was conducted with an eye to determine if the data had normal distribution and subsequently Mann -Whitney U-test and Kruskal-Wallis test were applied to determine the significant differences after it was understood that the data were appropriate for non-parametric test conditions. Male participants had a higher score than female participants in the "Psychological" and "Education" subscales of the leisure satisfaction scale in terms of gender. The scores achieved through participants aged 40 years and over are higher the scores of participants in other age groups, in the "Relaxation" subscale of the leisure satisfaction scale in terms of age. No significant difference was found in the subscales of the leisure satisfaction scale according to the monthly income variable. As a result, it was concluded that gender and age were significant factors in leisure satisfaction levels while monthly income was not a significant factor.

. It is known that there is exactly one such invariant linear form up to multiplication by scalars, and an explicit linear form is given by integrating Whittaker functions over the F-points of the mirabolic subgroup when π is unitary and generic. In this paper, we prove that the essential vector of [14] is a test vector for this standard distinguishing linear form and that the value of this form at the essential vector is a local L-value. As an application we determine the value of a certain proportionality constant between two explicit distinguishing linear forms. We then extend all our results to the non-unitary generic case.

Authors: Akhter Gulraiz , Hasan M. 
Published: December 2016

AbstractIn order to determine the groundwater resources and potentials of the Khanewal District of Pakistan, a geophysical method in combination with pumping test data were used. An analytical relationship between the aquifer parameters interpreted from surface geoelectrical method and pumping test was established in order to estimate aquifer parameters from surface measurements where no pumping tests exist. For the said purpose, 48 geoelectric investigations were carried out using Schlumberger vertical electrical sounding (VES). Seven of the soundings were conducted where pumping tests had been carried out at borehole sites. The vertical electrical sounding stations were interpreted, and resistivities and thickness parameters were calculated. The values of transmissivity and hydraulic conductivity were calculated using the Dar Zarrouk parameter. Transmissivity values obtained from pumping test data and the VES method range between 954 – 4263 m

Published: December 2016

Abstract
This manuscript describes the analysis of temperature and the distribution of natural convection flow of three different cookware materials composed of stainless steel, aluminum and enameled iron, when heating olive oil. A Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) software, called COMSOL Multiphysics©, has been used to analyze the heat transfer process for this study. In addition, a thermographic camera and a particle tracer were employed to compare the measurements of temperature, heat transfer and flow velocity, obtained from the CFD analysis. The results demonstrated that the enameled iron was the best choice of cookware material for induction stoves, as with the increment of oil temperature, this material had the biggest contrails and oil velocity convection flow in the center of the cookware.

Authors: Wang Pan , Wang Li-jun , Li Dong , Huang Zhi-gang , Adhikari Benu , Chen Xiao Dong 
Published: December 2016

Abstract:
Stress-relaxation behavior of single rice kernel was studied using a dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA) in compression mode. The relaxation modulus was measured in a moisture content range of 12–30 % on dry basis (d.b.) and a temperature range of 25–80°C. A constant stain value of 1 % (within the linear viscoelastic range) was selected during the stress-relaxation tests. The relaxation modulus was found to decrease as the temperature and moisture increased. A master curve of relaxation modulus as a function of temperature and moisture content was generated using the time–moisture–temperature superposition principle. Results showed that the generalized Maxwell model satisfactorily fitted the experimental data of the stress-relaxation behavior and the master curve of relaxation modulus (R
2> 0.997). By shifting the temperature curves horizontally, the activation energy of the stress relaxation was obtained which significantly decreased with increase in the moisture content.

Authors: de Amo Enrique , Carrillo Manuel Díaz , Fernández-Sánchez Juan 
Published: December 2016

Abstract
We study a parameterized family of singular functions which appears in a paper by H. Okamoto and M. Wunsch (2007). Various properties are revisited from the viewpoint of fractal geometry and probabilistic techniques. Hausdorff dimensions are calculated for several sets related to these functions, and new properties close to fractal analysis and strong negations are explored.
Will the Nonprofit Sector Strengthen Itself? Or Merely Engage in Defensive Efforts?
Authors: Steuerle Eugene 
Published: December 2016

AbstractIn the post-2016 election period, nonprofit institutions, particularly charities, might react to new challenges in more than a defensive way. Opportunities include much greater self-examination of ways to enhance the effectiveness of their own actions and making trade-offs in the forthcoming tax and spending debates that stress exchanging less effective provisions for more effective ones.
Ultrafast Transient Absorption and Terahertz Spectroscopy as Tools to Probe Photoexcited States and Dynamics in Colloidal 2D Nanostructures
Authors: Lauth Jannika , Kinge Sachin , Siebbeles Laurens D.A. 
Published: December 2016

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors hold high potential for the implementation of efficient ultrathin electronics (e.g. field-effect transistors, light emitting diodes and solar cell devices). In recent years, colloidal methods to synthesize ultrathin 2D materials have been developed that offer alternatives (like the production of non-layered 2D materials and upscaling) to mechanical exfoliation methods. By focusing on optoelectronic applications, it is important to characterize the nature and dynamics of photoexcited states in these materials. In this paper, we use ultrafast transient absorption (TA) and terahertz (THz) spectroscopy as optimal tools for such a characterization. We choose recently synthesized ultrathin colloidal 2D InSe nanosheets (inorganic layer thickness 0.8–1.7 nm; ≤5 nm including ligands) for discussing TA and THz spectroscopic studies and elucidate their charge carrier dynamics under photoexcitation with TA. THz spectroscopy is then used to extract contactless AC mobilities as high as 20±2 cm2/Vs in single InSe layers. The obtained results underpin the general applicability of TA and THz spectroscopy for characterizing photoexcited states in 2D semiconductors.

Published: December 2016

<p>Mount Rinjani area on the island of Lombok is unique in bioecology. It provides habitats for many species of birds, especially birds of Wallacea. Several studies on birds in this area have been done, but the conservation priority of these birds has not been determined. Based on this condition, the purpose of this research is to determine the priority of birds conservation in mount Rinjani areas. Exploration about the spesies of birds was started from Senaru Village to Segara Anak Lake. Abundance of each bird species was estimated using point count. Data analysis to determine the conservation priority used indicators that consist of endemicity, population status, species threatened and species management. The results showed that the birds species in mount Rinjani areas are composed of 32 species belonging to 20 families. Bird species that have high abundance were <em>Amandava amandava </em>(15.94%), <em>Zosterops Montanus</em> (15.70%), and <em>Parus major</em> (11.32%), while <em>Ptilinopus melanospila</em> and <em>Anthus novaeseelandiae</em> were in low abundance (0.23%). Analysis birds conservation priority in mount Rinjani areas indicates that <em>Otus jolandae</em> has the highest score (65) and should be the first priority for the conservation, while <em>Philemon buceroides</em> and <em>Gallus varius</em> with the same score (60) are the second priority.<em> </em></p><p><strong>How to Cite</strong></p><p>Hadiprayitno, G., Mertha, I.

Published: December 2016

Introduction: Hyperhomocysteinaemia (HHcy) is an established risk factor for cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, peripheral vascular diseases and neurodegenerative disease. The effect of this HHcy on vascular diseases could potentially cause vascular pathology features. Experimental studies have demonstrated that Hcy can be neurotoxic to brain, hippocampus area.
Methods: The present study was conducted to compare the possible neuroprotective effects of different herbal cocktail in HHcy-induced rats’ brain cerebrovascular dysfunction model. Rats were divided into nine groups: Group I - Controls received the same volume of saline solution (0.5 mL/100 g of body weight). Group II served as HHcy and received homocysteine 0.03 μmol/g of b.w. daily for 30 days. Group III served as HHcy and received homocysteine 0.03 μmol/g of b.w. + Artemisia Judaica extract (AJ) (50 mg/kg per oral by oral feeding needle with tuberculin syringe) daily for 30 days. Group IV served as HHcy and received homocysteine 0.03 μmol/g of b.w.+ Panax ginseng extract (PG) (50 mg/kg per oral by oral feeding needle with tuberculin syringe) daily for 30 days. Group V served as HHcy and received homocysteine 0.03 μmol/g of b.w. + Polygonum multiflorum extract (PM) (400 mg/kg per oral by oral feeding needle with tuberculin syringe) daily for 30 days. Group VI served as HHcy and received homocysteine 0.03 μmol/g of b.w. + AJ + PG with the same dose of previous group daily for 30 days. Group VII served as HHcy and received homocysteine 0.03 μmol/g of b.w. + AJ + PM with the same dose of the previous group daily for 30 days. Group VIII served as HHcy and received homocysteine 0.03 μmol/g of b.w. + PG + PM with the same dose of the previous group daily for 30 days. Group IX served as HHcy and received homocysteine 0.03 μmol/g of b.w. + AJ + PG + PM with the same dose of previous group daily for 30 days. The hippocampus of brain samples was collected at the end of the experiment and measuring oxidative stress markers (CAT, SOD, MDA and NO), inflammatory mediators (IL-6 and BDNF), histopathological examination and comet assay.
Results: Revealed data showed that the homocysteine induces SOD, CAT depletion, and an increase in AChE, MDA, NO, IL-6, and BDNF. A mixture of PG and PM or the individual treatments showed an ameliorative response for all parameters. In general, oxidative stress parameters, inflammatory mediator, neurotrophic factor, pathological examination and comet were degenerate against HHcy but did not differ significantly compared to AJ group.
Conclusion: Better physiological and histological characteristics were in PG and PM and their combination groups compared with HHcy and ameliorated nearly the control group.
