Published: March 2017

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
Both the social environment and the physical environment are increasingly recognized as important to childhood diseases such as asthma. This study tested a novel hypothesis: that living in areas high in greenspace may help buffer the effects of difficult family relationships for children with asthma.

METHODS:
A total of 150 children (ages 9–17), physician-diagnosed with asthma, participated in this study. To assess difficulties in parent-child relationships, parents and children completed measures of harsh/inconsistent parenting and parental hostility. Residential greenspace was calculated by using satellite-derived Normalized Difference Vegetation Index with a buffer of 250 m around the residential address. Outcomes included both clinical and biological measures: asthma control and functional limitations, as well as airway inflammation (fractional concentration of exhaled nitric oxide) and glucocorticoid receptor expression in T-helper cells.

RESULTS:
After controlling for potential confounding variables, including family income, child demographics, and child medical variables, few main effects were found. However, interactions between residential greenspace and difficult family relationships were found for asthma control (P = .02), asthma functional limitations (P = .04), airway inflammation (P = .007), and the abundance of glucocorticoid receptor in T-helper cells (P = .05). These interactions were all in a direction such that as the quality of parent-child relationships improved, greenspace became more strongly associated with better asthma outcomes.

CONCLUSIONS:
These findings suggest synergistic effects of positive environments across the physical and social domains. Children with asthma appear to benefit the most when they both live in high greenspace areas and have positive family relationships.
Social traumas, community building, ecological thinking, solidarity

Published: March 2017

New museology, emerging in the 1970s, reached critical museology in the early 2000s. A few peculiar examples of participatory museology can be found when looking back to decades of tradition at the Skanzen Hungarian Open Air Museum. It was a long transformation from an essentially architectural museum into a social museum. In my paper I reflect on some examples of this history.
Open air museums represent one of the most popular and sought-after museum types in the world, with significant ethnographic and historical collections, visitor-friendly exhibitions, and a wide range of programs related to these exhibitions. It is a common phenomenon in the museum world that social problems and sensitive issues first appear in education programs, then in research and collection strategy, and finally in exhibition politics. And so it was at the Skanzen. The tendency began in the early 21st century, when, connected to the Trianon syndrome, it materialized in the research related to the preparation of the Transylvanian building complex, then to the social traumas of 20th-century peasant society. The minority existence, being a Hungarian outside the country’s borders, is a cornerstone of the interpretation of the Transylvanian building complex. The analysis of 20th-century changes and research and collections related to the yet-to-be-built 20th-century rural building complex touched upon the history of the disappearance of peasant society as well.

Authors: Béres Alexandra , Czeglédi Edit , Babusa Bernadett 
Published: March 2017

Background and Objectives
Most research on the effects of exercise on body image has concentrated on the benefits of regular exercise. However, some research has indicated that exercise has an immediate impact on body image. The aims of this study were to investigate the immediate effects of aerobic exercise in a fitness class and the at-home environment on body image, and to examine the impact of nutritional status (i.e., normal weight vs. overweight/obesity) and exercise addiction on these changes.

Method
322 Hungarian women participated in the study with two different environmental conditions, fitness class condition (N = 155) and at-home video condition (N = 167). They completed the Body Appreciation Scale and Exercise Addiction Inventory before and after a one-hour aerobic exercise session. Self-report data on weight, height and exercise frequency were also collected.

Results
There were no significant differences between the fitness class and video groups in terms of age, educational level, BMI, body appreciation, exercise frequency and exercise addiction. We found that 7.5% (N = 24) of the participants were at risk for exercise addiction. Aerobic exercise had a significant positive effect on body appreciation (t(321) = 7.564, p < .001) independently from environment and nutritional status. Exercise addiction moderated the relationship between exercise and body image, the at risk for exercise addiction group showed the greatest improvement (F(1) = 3.252, p = .040).

Conclusion
The results indicate that even a one-hour aerobic exercise session has a positive effect on body image; this has important practical implications for intervention strategies and weight-loss treatments.
Post-traumatic stress symptoms in pathological gambling: Potential evidence of anti-reward processes
Authors: Green Cheryl L. , Nahhas Ramzi W. , Scoglio Arielle A. , Elman Igor 
Published: March 2017

Background
Excessive gambling is considered to be a part of the addiction spectrum. Stress-like emotional states are a key feature both of pathological gambling (PG) and of substance addiction. In substance addiction, stress symptomatology has been attributed in part to “anti-reward” allostatic neuroadaptations, while a potential involvement of anti-reward processes in the course of PG has not yet been investigated.

Methods
To that end, individuals with PG (n = 22) and mentally healthy subjects (n = 13) were assessed for trauma exposure and post-traumatic stress symptomatology (PTSS) using the Life Events Checklist and the Civilian Mississippi Scale, respectively.

Results
In comparison with healthy subjects, individuals with PG had significantly greater PTSS scores including greater physiological arousal sub-scores. The number of traumatic events and their recency were not significantly different between the groups. In the PG group, greater gambling severity was associated with more PTSS, but neither with traumatic events exposure nor with their recency.

Conclusions
Our data replicate prior reports on the role of traumatic stress in the course of PG and extend those findings by suggesting that the link may be derived from the anti-reward-type neuroadaptation rather than from the traumatic stress exposure per se.

AbstractLessons LearnedThese negative phase II results for parsatuzumab highlight the challenges of developing an agent intended to enhance the efficacy of vascular endothelial growth factor inhibition without the benefit of validated pharmacodynamic biomarkers or strong predictive biomarker hypotheses. Any further clinical development of anti-EGFL7 is likely to require new mechanistic insights and biomarker development for antiangiogenic agents.BackgroundEGFL7 (epidermal growth factor-like domain 7) is a tumor-enriched vascular extracellular matrix protein that supports endothelial cell survival. This phase II trial evaluated the efficacy of parsatuzumab (also known as MEGF0444A), a humanized anti-EGFL7 IgG1 monoclonal antibody, in combination with modified FOLFOX6 (mFOLFOX6) (folinic acid, 5-fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin) bevacizumab in patients with previously untreated metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).MethodsOne-hundred twenty-seven patients were randomly assigned to parsatuzumab, 400 mg, or placebo, in combination with mFOLFOX6 plus bevacizumab, 5 mg/kg. Treatment cycles were repeated every 2 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity for a maximum of 24 months, with the exception of oxaliplatin, which was administered for up to 8 cycles.ResultsThe progression-free survival (PFS) hazard ratio was 1.17 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.71–1.93; p = .548). The median PFS was 12 months for the experimental arm versus 11.9 months for the control arm. The hazard ratio for overall survival was 0.97 (95% CI, 0.46–2.1; p = .943). The overall response rate was 59% in the parsatuzumab arm and 64% in the placebo arm. The adverse event profile was similar in both arms.ConclusionsThere was no evidence of efficacy for the addition of parsatuzumab to the combination of bevacizumab and chemotherapy for first-line mCRC.

Background and objectives: angiotensin II is involved in the development of hypertension. The main objectives of the study were to measure and compare the levels of angiotensin II among normal population in various areas with different altitudes Methods: Study design: cross- sectional study was conducted to collect data from participants at the same time. Study setting: participants from various areas with different altitudes were recruited to participate in this study. A total of 1500 participants were included. Study procedure: data was collected from participants based on a questionnaire that was constructed for this study. Blood samples were withdrawn from participants by a well- trained nurse. Angiotensin II was measured using enzyme linked immune sorbent assay (ELISA). Statistical analysis: data was analyzed using SPSS version 20. Data was represented as means, standard deviations, frequencies and percentage. The relationship between variables was tested using independent T-Test. The significance was considered at p value <0.05. Results: the level of angiotensin II was 8.84± 4.65 pg/ml in Dead Sea, 11.21± 6.05 pg/ml in Sea level, and 12.08± 5.19 pg/ml in Ajloun. There was a significant difference between the means of angiotensin II between Ajloun and Dead Sea (p=0.039). no other significant differences were observed between the study areas. Conclusion: the angiotensin II varies between the areas according to their altitudes and this consideration should be taken into account when hypertensive drugs are prescribed.
Filosofía, matemática y paradojas: el caso de la paradoja Burali-Forti en la argumentación de Descartes sobre la existencia de Dios
Authors: Rangel-Quiñonez Henry Sebastián , Aguirre-Román Javier Orlando 
Published: March 2017

El presente escrito presenta las ventajas y desventajas de la formalización matemática como una herramienta para el análisis de argumentos complejos o difusos en la filosofía. De tal forma, aquí se encuentra un recorrido histórico de algunas consideraciones del papel de las matemáticas en la búsqueda del conocimiento. Posterior a ello, se muestra cómo por medio de la teoría de conjuntos y laabstracción matemática, es posible proponer una reinterpretación de algunos textos filosóficos. Para lograr este objetivo, se presenta, a manera de ejemplo, la formalización de los conceptos de “Dios”, “error” y “Creación” dados por Descartes en su libro las Meditaciones de la filosofía primera, este ejercicio permiteproponer una paradoja en donde se evidencia una posible falencia en la delimitación del concepto de Dios. Con todo ello, se demuestra por qué los enfoques matemáticos deben ser promovidos en los estudios filosóficos.

The result indicates the role of the revenue (PAD) in the Regional Budget (APBD) of East Java Province indicates that there is still very small, with an average of 15.47% of the total revenue budget. This means that the level of dependence of local governments on the central government is still high. Although the results of regional revenue projections indicate that component has been great in their contribution of the reception area, which amounted to 69.52%. Using the ordinary least squre method, the result of regression correlation are insignificant. This means that the regional gross domestic product does not have an effect on revenue of East Java Province. If an increase or decrease in regional gross domestic product will not increase or decrease revenue amount. This means that there is no significant relationship between economic growths towards the reception of the revenue.</em></p><p align="left"><em> </em></p><p><strong>Keywords: </strong>economic growth, revenues (PAD), Regional Budget (APBD), Gross Domestic Product (GDP).</p>

Government Initiatives to Empower Small and Medium Enterprise: Comparing One Stop Shop for Licensing in Indonesia and Australia
Authors: Bhinekawati Risa 
Published: March 2017

This article analyzes the initiatives taken by both Indonesian and Australian governments in undertaking bureaucratic reform to support small and medium enterprises. The focus is on how government harmonizes bureaucracy and regulations to empower small medium enterprise in starting, operating, and growing their business. One of the key initiatives in the two countries is to streamline business regulations and licensing through a single portal so called “one stop shop for licensing”. Both Indonesia and Australia have started such initiatives almost at the same time, in 2006 and 2008 respectively. Until recently, the two countries have made important progresses but with different approaches. In Indonesia, the objective of the one stop shop is to provide easiness for companies to start the business; while in Australia, the purpose is broader and more comprehensive, which is to achieve “seamless Australian economy”. This study was conducted in Canberra and Queanbeyan, Australia. The research has found important key lessons from Australia that may be applicable to Indonesia in establishing mechanisms for government initiatives to better support small and medium enterprise through a single portal or one stop shop for licensing.

Published: March 2017

Amylolytic lactic acid bacteria are a group of bacteria that are capable to use starch as the carbon source. The objectives of this research were to characterize, and identify the lactic acid bacteria from sago starch processing industry, which might be used to modify the sago starch. There were 39 isolates isolated from sago processing industry, and 36 of them were presumed as lactic acid bacteria. From 36 isolates suspected as lactic acid bacteria, 9 of them had amylolytic properties. Morphological identification results show that the 9 isolates were l Gram-positive bacteria, negative catalase, rod shape, and 5 isolates produced gas, while 4 isolates did not produce gas. The ability to produce amylase varied among isolates and isolate RN2.12112 had the higher amylolytic ability than others. Results show that the nine isolates identified as lactic acid bacteria were dominated by Lactobacillus plantarum 1. ABSTRAKBakteri asam laktat (BAL) yang bersifat amilolitik adalah bakteri asam laktat yang mampu memanfaatkan pati sebagai substratnya. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mengkarakterisasi sifat amilolitik dan mengidentifikasi bakteri asam laktat yang mempunyai kemampuan amilolitik untuk memodifikasi pati sagu. Hasil penelitian memperoleh 39 isolat dari industri pengolahan sagu dan 36 diantaranya diduga sebagai bakteri asam laktat. Sembilan dari 36 isolat yang diduga bakteri asam laktat mempunyai sifat amilolitik. Sembilan isolat yang bersifat amilolitik selanjutnya diidentifikasi secara morfologi yang meliputi pewarnaan Gram, bentuk sel, uji katalase, dan uji kemampuan fermentasi. Hasil identifikasi secara morfologi menunjukkan bahwa kesembilan isolat termasuk kelompok bakteri Gram positif, katalase negatif, bentuk basil, dan lima isolat menghasilkan gas sedangkan empat isolat tidak menghasilkan gas. Kemampuan isolat untuk menghasilkan amilase bervariasi dan isolat RN2.12112 mempunyai kemampuan amilolitik lebih tinggi dibanding isolat lainnya. Hasil identifikasi menunjukkan bahwa dari sembilan isolat yang diidentifikasi didominasi oleh Lactobacillus plantarum 1.
