The Paradox of the 1970s: The Renaissance of International Banking and the Rise of Public Debt
Authors: Altamura Carlo Edoardo 
Published: December 2017

The Paradox of the 1970s: The Renaissance of International Banking and the Rise of Public Debt The 1970s is a paradoxical decade. On the one hand, it marked the gradual demise of the industrial society and the end of the «Golden Age» of capitalism. On the other hand, the decade saw the renaissance of international banking and finance after almost half a century of retreat, thanks to the explosive growth of the Eurodollar market. International banking, which had remained dormant since the 1930s, gradually re-emerged from its ashes as banking institutions started to reconsider their domestic orientation. The growth of the Eurodollar market and the process of banking internationalisation were crucially accelerated by the first oil crisis when private commercial banks replaced public institutions in the intermediation of capital flows between surplus and deficit countries with Eurobonds and, especially, Euroloans. Foreign borrowing provided a relief to nearly all the problems that the monetary and energy crisis had aggravated or created. The side effect to that panacea was the delegation of increasing power to the banking and financial sectors by «privatising» the monetary and financial circuit, and by tying once and for all the destiny of the developing world to the interests of commercial banks. The paper will address the paradox of the 1970s to argue that a clear link exists between the industrial crisis and the renaissance of finance.
Financialisation and the Pension System: Lessons from the United States and the Netherlands
Authors: van der Zwan Natascha 
Published: December 2017

Financialisation and the Pension System: Lessons from the United States and the Netherlands The articles explores the financialisation of private pensions in the United States and the Netherlands. It proposes two distinct arguments. First, the article shows that both the American and the Dutch pension systems stand out internationally for their high degrees of capitalisation and the absence of substantive investment restrictions for pension funds. The article posits that both pension systems are highly financialised, yet the process of financialisation has proceeded along different historical paths and within different institutional contexts. Secondly, the article maintains that the financialisation of pension systems is accompanied by its own political dynamics. In both political economies, different groups of actors (employers, labour unions, financial professionals) have made claims over the growing concentration of pension assets. Here, particular emphasis is given to the role of the state. It shows how since the mid-1970s, both American and Dutch pension funds have altered their investment strategies, abandoning public debt as the dominant investment category. The article explains this change in terms of the rising popularity of modern portfolio theory and the immense growth of pension capital in need of new investment options. As austerity politics have made governments more dependent on financial markets, pension funds have become more assertive in leveraging their assets and demanding political reform which are in the interest of the financial industries. Financialisation has thus fundamentally altered the balance of power between the state and financial market actors.

Published: December 2017

Background: Gastric outlet obstruction is a group of clinico-patho physiological consequence of mechanical impediment of gastric emptying. Clinical entities that can result in gastric outlet obstruction are categorized into two well-defined groups of causes - benign and malignant. The proximal stomach is now the most common site for gastric carcinoma in the west but in Japan and developing countries like India the distal gastric cancer (antrum 13% and pylorus 7%) still predominates. Diagnosis of gastric outlet obstruction depends on different clinical features and certain investigations. The definitive treatment involves surgical relief of the gastric outlet obstruction. The correct surgical procedure to be adopted is planned according to the cause of obstruction and condition of the patients. This is an observational study aimed for characterization of gastric outlet obstruction in terms of benign and malignant and their relation to its causes, sites and other related factors in tertiary care centre (RIMS).Methods: This is an observational study comprises on 50 patients of gastric outlet obstruction admitted in the Department of Surgery R.I.M.S., Ranchi. The provisional diagnosis was based on detailed clinical history, thorough physical examinations, and some radiological investigations.Results: Majority of the patients of gastric outlet obstruction were malignant lesions of stomach and very few are benign. Antral carcinoma of stomach was found to be the commonest etiology of gastric outlet obstruction followed by pyloric stenosis secondary to acid peptic disorders. Most of the patient was in the age group of 40 to 60 years of age, males were affected more than Females.Conclusions: Gastric outlet obstruction in adults, a surgical problem of either sex, results commonly due to antral carcinoma or pyloric stenosis secondary to acid peptic disorder.

Published: December 2017

BaCKGROUND: Diagnosing iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is easy, but also can be complicated in condition with inflammation. A new modality for diagnostic which isn’t influenced with inflammation is needed. The aim of this study is to find the cut-off point and evaluate the accuracy of reticulocyte hemoglobin equivalent (Ret-He) to diagnose IDA using ferritin as the gold standard.METHODS: This study was an observational study with cross-sectional analytical design continued with the diagnostic test conducted in anemic individuals with age 18 years old or above.RESULTS: Eighty-seven patients (41 men and 46 women) were included in this study with mean of hemoglobin 7.42 g/dL, serum iron 42.71 mg/dL, total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) 242.82 mg/dL, ferritin 799 ug/L and Ret-He 23.63 pg. Ret-He with cut-off value 25 pg showed a sensitivity 97.2% (95% CI 83.79-99.85%), specificity 66.67% (95% CI 51.97-78.85%), positive predictive value 67.30% (95% CI 52.77-79.28%) and negative predictive value 97.14% (95% CI 83.38-99.85%).CONCLUSION: Ret-He showed the best sensitivity for detection of IDA and was suggested as the screening test for IDA.KEYWORDS: IDA, Ret-He, diagnostic test
The Blockade of Glutamate N-methyl-D-aspartate Receptors into the Prelimbic of Prefrontal Cortex Decreases Morphine-induced Conditioned Place Preference in Rat
Authors: Javadi Samad , Alaei Hojjatallah , Hosseini Ebrahim , Edalatmanesh Mohammad Amin 
Published: December 2017

BACKGROUND: The prelimbic area (PL) of the prefrontal cortex is susceptible to abnormal developmental stimuli that raises the risk of addiction. Glutamate receptors play a key role in opiate reinforcement and reward functions in this area. Therefore, we examined the effect of the DL-2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoic acid (AP5), as N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist into the PL on the phases of conditioned place preference (CPP) induced by morphine.METHODS: Male Wistar rats were divided into 12 groups (3 surgical groups for each dose of morphine in any phase of CPP) and anaesthetized with chloral hydrate. Cannula was implanted into the PL and the AP5 was injected into this area and morphine-induced CPP was investigated. Data were processed with the commercially available SPSS 22 software using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's test. p<0.05 were considered statistically significant.RESULTS: Our findings indicated, morphine in doses of 2.5 to 10 mg/kg induced CPP. Microinjection of various doses of the AP5 into the PL before the administration of the effective dose of morphine significantly reduced place preference in the acquisition and the expression phases of the CPP test compared to the sham group (p<0.001). In another set of our experiments was seen that, different doses of the AP5 with the ineffective dose of morphine only reduced the expression phase of the CPP (p<0.001) while, produced neither preference nor aversion effect on the acquisition phase (p=0.147).CONCLUSION: It seems that the glutamate NMDA receptors in the PL through memory formation and morphine-related reward signals play a critical role in addiction process during morphine-induced CPP.KEYWORDS: N-methyl-aspartate, morphine, glutamate receptor, prefrontal cortex, reward

Authors: Febriyantiningsih Dwi Esti , Senjarini Kartika , Oktarianti Rike 
Published: December 2017

Malaria has been prevalent for a long time in tropical developing regions causing great morbidity and mortality. Among the malaria vectors, Anopheles vagus has been known as secondary malaria vector in East Java. Salivary glands of mosquitoes perform various functions for survival of the vectors and also conducive for blood feeding, harbouring of malaria parasites, and eventual parasite transmission. The salivary gland proteomes of An. vagus have not been carried out yet. The aim of our study was to identify and characterize the immunogenic proteins of salivary glands proteins of An. vagus. A proteomic approach combining one-dimensional electrophoresis (1DE) followed by western blot analysis using human sera from healthy people living in an endemic area (Kendal); liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and bioinformatic analysis was adopted to provide the first direct insight into identification and characterization of salivary proteins of An. vagus. Identification of immunogenic proteins using western blot analysis has revealed three immunogenic bands which had molecular weights of 69, 75 and 232 kDa. Among those proteins analysed by LC-MS/MS, there were alpha,1-4 glucan phosphorylase, putative myosin class I heavy chain which have the highest number of total spectrum count peptide. Other proteins like vitellogenin and heat shock protein 82 (Hsp82) were also identified. The majority of proteins were scrutinized marked for their role in metabolism, cytoskeleton protein and stress response.

Published: December 2017

A cirurgia laparoscópica tem se tornado uma técnica cada vez mais frequente em nosso meio. Porém não está isenta de complicações. Embora rara, a embolia gasosa por CO2 é uma complicação grave, associada a uma mortalidade de até 28%. Esse é um relato de caso de um paciente do sexo masculino, 73 anos, que foi submetido a uma hepatectomia parcial videolaparoscopica para o tratamento de um adenocarcinoma. Após 200 minutos de cirurgia apresentou instabilidade hemodinâmica, diminuição da saturação de oxigênio, acidose respiratória e diminuição da ETCO2. Foi então desfeito o pneumoperitoneo e o paciente foi tratado com drogas vasoativas. O rápido diagnostico da embolia por CO2 foi importante para a rápida recuperação e ausência de sequelas no paciente.
Sub-representação legal nas ações afirmativas: a Lei de Cotas nos concursos públicos
Authors: Piza Duarte Evandro , Loures Ferreira Gianmarco 
Published: December 2017

Este artigo pretende contribuir para a discussão sobre políticas de ação afirmativa de recorte racial no Brasil, como as cotas raciais em concursos públicos. A partir da análise da composição racial das carreiras e dos cargos públicos federais, identificaram-se três aspectos em que a Lei nº 12.990, de 2014, apresentaria limites ao combate à desigualdade racial: o percentual de vagas reservadas (quanto), as carreiras em que se aplicaria (onde) e a não abrangência dos cargos em comissão (quem). Com base nos dados levantados, concluiu-se pela existência de restrições na Lei de Cotas, que pode ser sintetizada no conceito proposto de sub-representação legal, em que aspectos referentes a “quanto”, “onde” e “quem” criam limites a esta política afirmativa. Assim, a lei mantém a proporção de pessoas que podem vir a ser beneficiadas por ela inferior à proporção deste mesmo grupo na população brasileira. Por fim, embora destaque a essencialidade das cotas raciais nos concursos públicos, o artigo identifica as limitações da lei e procura agregar ao debate elementos que poderiam ser incorporados em sua modelagem.

Authors: Godoy João Gabriel Vasconcellos , Raupp Fabiano Maury 
Published: December 2017

O objetivo do estudo consistiu em analisar o uso de artefatos de contabilidade gerencial por organizações sem fins lucrativos de Florianópolis, Santa Catarina. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória, realizada por meio de um estudo multicasos, com abordagem qualitativa. Os dados foram coletados a partir de entrevistas semi estruturadas, além de levantamento de dados secundários. Estes dados foram analisados por meio da técnica da uma análise de conteúdo. Em termos de resultados, foi descrito o uso de artefatos de contabilidade gerencial pelas referidas organizações, identificadas as razões para adoção destes artefatos, e analisada a relação entre características contingenciais e o uso dos artefatos. No caso da Nova Acrópole Florianópolis, a existência de um stakeholder com poder normativo social unilateral levou ao uso de controles formalizados e padronização de atividades. O desempenho do papel estratégico de Expressão de Valores através de atividades de avaliação subjetiva levou à demanda por artefatos de mensuração de desempenho. Nos casos do IEB e da AMUCC, o custeio variável é adotado por demanda de financiadores pela gestão por projetos. Particularmente em relação ao IEB, a adoção de artefatos de contabilidade gerencial por meio do isomorfismo normativo é potencializada pela existência de um stakeholder com poder utilitário. Em relação ao IVG, atividades de avaliação subjetiva levam à adoção de artefatos de controle como medidas de desempenho.

Authors: Kiseleva Irina , Larionova Natalie , Rudenko Larisa 
Published: December 2017

Background:The H5N1 avian influenza was first recognized in humans in Hong Kong 20 years ago. Current enzootic spread of highly pathogenic H5N1 virus among wild and domestic poultry and a number of severe human respiratory diseases caused by this pathogen have stimulated necessity of development of potentially pandemic influenza vaccines.Discussion:In the past few years, significant research was conducted on how to prevent H5N1 influenza. Live, attenuated cold–adapted reassortant influenza vaccine (LAIV) is considered as one of the most promising candidates for pandemic and prepandemic vaccines. LAIV has proven to be safe and efficacious; pandemic LAIV might be more effective than inactivated vaccine in providing broader immune response.Conclusion:This review covers development of LAIVs against potential avian “pandemic” H5N1 subtype based on cold–adapted A/Leningrad/134/17/57 (H2N2) master donor virus backbone, and their preclinical and clinical studies.

Published: December 2017

Objective: The increasing of antibiotic resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa causes serious worldwide infection problems. Hence, the objective of the study was to investigate the antibacterial activity of some plants against multidrug resistance P. aeruginosa isolated from burn-wound infections.Methods: About 30 burn-wound swab samples taken from hospitalized patients in Al-Hillah Teaching Hospital, Babylon Province. P. aeruginosa isolates were isolated and identified depending on cultural, microbial, and biochemical characteristics. Then, the drug susceptibility was detected using different available antibiotics (8) to select multidrug resistance P. aeruginosa strains for using as test organisms. Three types of plants, including onion bulbs (Allium cepa), leaves of mint (Mentha asiatica), and outer peel of pomegranate (Punica granatum), were extracted by three types of solvent. The plant extracts were tested as antimicrobial substances.Results: About 9 samples were found positive by causing bacterial infection who presented invasive burn-wound infection from both sex and average age of 9 to 45 years. P. aeruginosa was found to be the most common isolates, 10 samples out of 30 samples. The most of multidrug resistance P. aeruginosa was used as test organisms to investigate the antimicrobial activity of three types of plant extracts. The plant extract of P. granatum showed the highest antibacterial activity, followed by A. cepa, and finally, M. asiatica.Conclusion: From the study, all three studied plants had antibacterial activity against multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa isolated from burn wound. It is a recommendation that natural products can use as therapeutic agents will probably not elicit resistance in bacteria. More research must continue to isolate and purify the active components and applied in experimental animal models.
