Nature and deliberation in Bessarion’s De natura et arte
Authors: Marchetto Monica 
Published: February 2016

AbstractThe present contribution will concentrate on the central issue discussed by Bessarion in one of his major works, the De natura et arte (written in 1458 and published in 1469 as the sixth book of Bessarion’s In calumniatorem Platonis), i. e. the concept of deliberation and the relationship between nature, purposiveness and deliberation. In De natura et arte Bessarion responds to an attack by George of Trebizond, who had demonstrated, against Bessarion, not only that nature does not deliberate, but also that deliberation cannot be attributed to God who guides nature either, since deliberation implies doubt and ignorance. In this contribution I will examine the strategies Bessarion uses in order to reaffirm the possibility of attributing deliberation even to God and the arguments through which he succeeds in stressing the fundamental agreement on this subject not only between Plato and Aristotle, but also and more importantly between Plato and Christian theology.

Published: February 2016

AbstractIn this paper, theoxidation process of
2 -methylnaphthalene to vitamin K3, using a gold catalyst
systems will be discussed. This catalysis process is based
on the hypercrosslinked polystyrene, synthesized by the
impregnation with solutions of precursors − HAuCl4·2H2O
and Ph3PAuCl. The use of gold catalyst system, which has
been synthesized using Ph3PAuCl, allows to obtain the
main product − 2-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone − with 72%
yield.

Abstract
Hepatoma-derived growth factor (HDGF) is involved in diverse, apparently unrelated processes, such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, DNA-repair, transcriptional control, ribosome biogenesis and cell migration. Most of the interactions of HDGF with diverse molecules has been assigned to the hath region of HDGF. In this study we describe two previously unknown HDGF isoforms, HDGF-B and HDGF-C, generated via alternative splicing with structurally unrelated N-terminal regions of their hath region, which is clearly different from the well described isoform, HDGF-A. In silico modeling revealed striking differences near the PHWP motif, an essential part of the binding site for glycosaminoglycans and DNA/RNA. This observation prompted the hypothesis that these isoforms would have distinct interaction patterns with correspondingly diverse roles on cellular processes. Indeed, we discovered specific associations of HDGF-B and HDGF-C with cytoskeleton elements, such as tubulin and dynein, suggesting previously unknown functions of HDGF in retrograde transport, site directed localization and/or cytoskeleton organization. In contrast, the main isoform HDGF-A does not interact directly with the cytoskeleton, but via RNA with messenger ribonucleoprotein (mRNP) complexes. In summary, the discovery of HDGF splice variants with their discrete binding activities and subcellular distributions opened new avenues for understanding its biological function and importance.
Grey Wolf Algorithm-Based Clustering Technique
Authors: Kumar Vijay , Chhabra Jitender Kumar , Kumar Dinesh 
Published: February 2016

AbstractThe main problem of classical clustering technique is that it is easily trapped in the local optima. An attempt has been made to solve this problem by proposing the grey wolf algorithm (GWA)-based clustering technique, called GWA clustering (GWAC), through this paper. The search capability of GWA is used to search the optimal cluster centers in the given feature space. The agent representation is used to encode the centers of clusters. The proposed GWAC technique is tested on both artificial and real-life data sets and compared to six well-known metaheuristic-based clustering techniques. The computational results are encouraging and demonstrate that GWAC provides better values in terms of precision, recall, G-measure, and intracluster distances. GWAC is further applied for gene expression data set and its performance is compared to other techniques. Experimental results reveal the efficiency of the GWAC over other techniques.
Hydrodynamics with Spin Angular Momentum from Systematic Coarse Graining: A Tutorial Example
Authors: Ilg Patrick 
Published: February 2016

Abstract
The derivation of time evolution equations for slow collective variables starting from a microscopic model system is demonstrated for the tutorial example of the classical, two-dimensional XY model. Projection operator techniques are used within a nonequilibrium thermodynamics framework together with molecular simulations in order to establish the building blocks of the hydrodynamics equations: Poisson brackets that determine the deterministic drift, the driving forces from the macroscopic free energy and the friction matrix. The approach is rather general and can be applied for deriving the equations of slow variables for a broad variety of systems.

Published: February 2016

AbstractTo assess the effect of oral propranolol on the progression of early stages of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants.We analyzed VLBW infants with ROP (stages 2–3, zones II-III). Newborns received oral propranolol (0.5 mg/kg/dose q8h), and were monitored throughout the treatment period for possible side effects. Propranolol was administered until regression of ROP. A historic control group of patients with equivalent ROP was used. We compared characteristics of both groups and the progression of retinopathy.Forty-seven newborns were included, 20 in the propranolol group and 27 in the control group. There were no significant differences in gestational age, birthweight or gender. The mean duration of treatment with propranolol was 58.2±17.6 days. Most patients started treatment with stage 2 disease (65.0%), and had zone III involvement (55.0%). In the treated group, 90.0% (18/20) of patients did not require intervention with laser or bevacizumab, compared to 51.8% in the control group (P<0.005). No cases of bradycardia, hypotension or hypoglycemia were observed.Oral propranolol in early stages of ROP could prevent disease progression and reduce the need for invasive rescue therapy with laser or bevacizumab. No significant side effects were reported.

Implementation of a multicomponent Responsible Beverage Service programme in Sweden-a qualitative study of promoting and hindering factors
Authors: Haggård Ulrika , Trolldal Björn , Kvillemo Pia , Guldbrandsson Karin 
Published: February 2016

Aims The objective of this study was to identify factors that either promote or hinder implementation of a multicomponent Responsible Beverage Service programme in Swedish municipalities. Design Forty semi-structured interviews were conducted in six municipalities and directed content analysis, guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), was performed. Results The CFIR framework was useful as an underlying theoretical model in this study. Importance of the following factors, described in the five domains of CFIR, was empirically supported in this study: local needs, evidence strength and advantages of the intervention, costs and available resources, clear goals, evaluation and feedback, access to knowledge and information, clear role definitions and cooperation, and enthusiastic key persons with high confidence in the effectiveness of the intervention. Hindering factors listed by the informants were lack of enthusiasm and opportunities to specialise, low degree of self-efficacy, unengaged decision-makers, complexities of the programme, and a top-down approach. Conclusions This study indicates that previously identified factors shown to promote and hinder implementation processes are also valid in the context of multicomponent community action programmes like RBS. Suggestions on how to elude some of the hindering factors are proposed, e.g. to develop long-time financial plans, to provide better information about the RBS program in full, and to stress the importance of collaboration between representatives from the municipalities, police authorities and owners of on-licenced premises.
Religious Healing and the Asclepius Cult:
A Case of Placebo Effects
Authors: Panagiotidou Olympia 
Published: February 2016

Abstract
This paper suggests a cognitive approach to the Asclepius cult which may throw light on the
supplicants’ personal experiences of healing during the ritual of incubation. In particular, the possibility
of healing at the Asclepius sanctuaries is presented as a potential result of the patients’ placebo responses.
The prerequisites of placebo effect as determined by Nicholas Humphrey are traced in the wider social
and conceptual contexts of Greek antiquity and the specific religious context of the Asclepius cult. In this
framework, it is argued that personal experiences of people, social information about the Asclepius’ healing
powers and the confirmation of this information by human doctors would have influenced how people
“lived” an illness or a disease infliction, “appropriated” the religious beliefs in Asclepius, and experienced
cures at the asclepieia. These cures could have derived from patients’ self-healing mechanisms, but would
have been perceived and conceptualized as “healing miracles” performed by the god. This preliminary
study intends to show how cognitive approaches can enrich historical knowledge on the Asclepius cult
and on supplicants’ healing experiences, suggesting that such approaches may contribute to a better
understanding of “lived religion” and of multiple religious experiences in various religious contexts.
Scaled Physical Model Test on Underground Gas Storages Based on a Pneumatically Flexible Loading System

Published: February 2016

Abstract
A geomechnical model test was conducted to study the stability of a salt cavern during the gas injection/recovery period. In order to simulate the internal pressure in the cavern and accurately exert the geostress, a numerical controlling pneumatically flexible loading model test system was developed. This loading system also realized the automatically loading digitalization control and visualization display. The model cavern was built using a wooden mold and was set within a latex balloon. This designation realized the injection and extraction of the gas, which simulated the variation of gas pressure in prototype engineering. During the model test, the precisely optical-based sensors were buried into the model to observe the deformation of the cavern. The deformation laws of the cavern were separately obtained at the gas stability, gas injection, and gas extraction stages. In addition, the optimal gas pressure and safe gas pressure were determined through the deformation law versus the gas pressure. Through analysis, the gas extraction and the rate of gas injection/extraction were identified to be the most important factors that threaten the stability of the salt cavern. The model test also demonstrated that the middle layer was the most at-risk section during the operation period compared to the other regions.
Improving HPV Vaccination Rates Using Maintenance-of-Certification Requirements
Authors: Fiks Alexander G. , Luan Xianqun , Mayne Stephanie L. 
Published: February 2016

BACKGROUND:
Many pediatricians are now required to participate in American Board of Pediatrics Maintenance of Certification (MOC) Part IV programs focused on improving health care quality, but the benefits of participation are unproven.

METHODS:
Twenty-seven primary care pediatricians from 11 primary care practices participated in a 1-year MOC program for human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine. Participants received education and electronic health record (EHR)-generated performance feedback reports with their rates of captured HPV immunization opportunities (dose given at eligible visit) and those of peers. In each of 3 cycles, clinicians collectively identified a goal for improvement. Rates of captured opportunities among adolescents 11 to &lt;18 years old were tabulated, and statistical process control charts were created to evaluate changes over time among participants compared with 200 nonparticipants. Provider perceptions of the program and time invested were recorded via survey.

RESULTS:
Participating clinicians missed fewer opportunities for HPV vaccination than nonparticipants. MOC participants significantly increased their captured opportunities relative to nonparticipating clinicians by 5.7 percentage points for HPV dose 1 at preventive visits and by 0.7 and 5.6 percentage points for doses 1 and 2, respectively, at acute visits. There were no significant differences for other doses. The estimated program cost was $662/participant. Of the participating pediatricians, 96% felt the effort to participate was warranted, and half would not have joined the project without the MOC requirement.

CONCLUSIONS:
Participation in MOC Part IV improved vaccination at modest cost and with high pediatrician satisfaction, demonstrating benefits of the program that may help to inform future initiatives.

Fabrication of Nanoimprint Stamps by Nanosphere Lithography
Authors: Kuo Chun-Wen , Shiu Jau-Ye , Cho Yi-Hong , Chen Peilin 
Published: February 2016

AbstractAnovel scheme for the fabrication of large-area nanoimprint stamps has been developed based on the utilization of a combination of nanosphere lithography and reactive ion etching. Both single and double layer polystyrene beads have been employed to construct well-ordered, periodic silicon nanopillar arrays. The nanopillar arrays fabricated by this method have been successfully used as the stamps for nanoimprint lithography. Our result indicates that this approach is capable of producing large-area sub-50 nm periodic nanostructures.
Some Comments on Interpreting the Dark-Surfaced Handmade Burnished Pottery of the 13th and 12th Century BCE Aegean
Authors: Rutter Jeremy B. 
Published: February 2016

David Small's attempt (JMA this issue) to explain the appearance, at major centers in the late Minoan-Mycenaean world, of dark-surfaced, handmade, and burnished vessels as a response to economic stress by native Aegean smallholders is reviewed. With the possible exception of the terminal Mycenaean material from Kalapodi in Phocis, Small's hypothesis fails to explain the ceramic data presently known: the novel pottery in question is distinguished not merely by its technology but also by a typology of shape and decoration which Small has ignored because he mistakenly considers it more or less universal in the context of a household mode of production.
A brief review of such issues as this handmade pottery's distribution, frequency, impact on native Aegean wheelmade wares, and function(s) within the Minoan-Mycenaean world leads to the conclusion that past evaluations of the origins and significance of this material have probably been unduly oversimplified. Future progress on addressing these and related questions is dependent on fuller publication of this fundamentally non-Aegean pottery in the Minoan and Aegean contexts in which it has been found.
Znaczenie kanonicznej formy zawarcia małżeństwa
Authors: Majer Piotr 
Published: February 2016

Artykuł prezentuje argumentację uzasadniającą wymóg kanonicznej formy zawarcia małżeństwa wymaganej ad validitatem matrimonii od czasów soboru trydenckiego. Wobec krytyki i postulatów zniesienia obowiązkowego charakteru formy kanonicznej autor eksponuje jej znaczenie stricte eklezjalne. W obliczu sekularyzacji małżeństwa kanoniczna forma jego zawarcia winna nie tylko umożliwić Kościołowi skuteczne sprawowanie jurysdykcji nad małżeństwem, ale przede wszystkim stanowić narzędzie świadectwa o sakramentalności małżeństwa i gwarancję autentyczności znaku małżeństwa (nuptial signification?) zarówno wobec samych nupturientów jak i ad extra, wobec świata.
Homo orans. Między mową a milczeniem
Authors: Klimowski Piotr 
Published: February 2016

Celem artykułu jest ukazanie aktu modlitwy jako wydarzenia, które dokonuje się na dwóch podstawowych biegunach, jakimi są mowa i milczenie. W pierwszej kolejności artykuł analizuje fenomen mowy, określa jej warunki, wskazując przede wszystkim na dystans i bliskość. Analizuje również skupienie i kontemplację oraz poczucie tego, co niewysłowione, jako różne warianty modlitewnego milczenia. W artykule został również podkreślony paradoks, iż modlitewny dialog może opierać się na wzajemnym milczeniu Boga i człowieka. Artykuł wskazuje ponadto, że dialektyka mowy i milczenia określa w modlącym się człowieku sposób samorozumienia oraz sposób rozumienia Boga. Z jednej strony Bóg jest Kimś niewysłowionym, z drugiej strony istnieje religijna konieczność wysławiania Boga.
Peter Singer i etyka chrześcijańska. Charlesa Camosy’ego próba znalezienia gruntu dla współpracy
Authors: Synowiec Jakub 
Published: February 2016

W artykule zostanie przedstawiona ciekawa próba wykazania, że różnice stanowisk między Peterem Singerem a szeroko rozumianą etyką chrześcijańską są mniejsze, niż by się mogło wydawać. Pogląd ten przedstawił w swojej książce pt. Peter Singer and Christian ethics. Beyond polarization Charles Camosy, katolicki etyk z USA. Celem jego pracy było wykazanie, że Peter Singer i etycy szukający inspiracji w myśli chrześcijańskiej mogą pracować razem w wielu kwestiach i że przedstawianie tych stanowisk jako radykalnie przeciwnych jest błędne. W niniejszym artykule tok rozumowania Camosy’ego będzie zreferowany i poddany krytycznej refleksji. Rzetelna praca badawcza, jakiej podjął się Camosy dla udowodnienia swoich tez, jest nowatorska i wiele wnosi do zrozumienia istoty sporu. Metoda, którą się posłużył, może wyznaczyć nowy standard dla dialogu między współczesnymi systemami etycznymi. W ostatniej części artykułu zostanie jednak zasugerowane, że autor marginalizuje pewne nieusuwalne trudności w sporze między etyką chrześcijańską a najbardziej znanym australijskim bioetykiem. Do takich trudności należy, jak się wydaje, radykalnie różne rozumienie pojęcia „osoba” oraz niechęć etyki chrześcijańskiej do pragmatycznych kompromisów w obszarze moralności.
The Relation between Consciousness and Emotions in the Thought of Karol Wojtyła
Authors: Hołub Grzegorz 
Published: February 2016

This article presents Karol Wojtyła’s thinking on consciousness and its possible distortion called the ‘emotionalization of consciousness’. In consciousness two functions can be distinguished, namely a receptive function and an experiencing/interiorizing function. When the emotionalization of this dual structure takes place, consciousness is weakened in registering emotional facts (in their cognitive aspect) as well as in their proper experiencing (i.e. in referring them to the interiority of the subject). Wojtyła concentrates on self-knowledge as a power, which can contribute to limiting or eliminating the emotionalization of consciousness. However, he does not mention how to strengthen self-knowledge and make it more adequate for the job. Hence, in the paper, the author underlines the role of understanding and command of language, which can make self-knowledge a more efficient tool.
Podstawowe założenia Światowych Dni Młodych
Authors: Chagas Jr. João 
Published: February 2016

Podstawowe założenia Światowych Dni Młodych formowały się na przestrzeni trzech ostatnich pontyfikatów. Idea tego wydarzenia zrodziła się z pasterskiej troski Jana Pawła II o młodych. Rozpoznał on, że entuzjazm młodych jest jednocześnie wspaniałym środkiem budującym jedność między różnymi kulturami. Widział też, że to działanie duszpasterskie musi być kościelne, uniwersalne i młodzież musi być w nim głównym protagonistą. Papież Benedykt, podkreślając katolickość i uniwersalność Światowych Dni Młodzieży, wyakcentował rolę wolontariatu, adoracji i sakramentu pojednania. Papież Franciszek podkreślił braterstwo, święto wiary i misję młodych we współczesnym świecie. ŚDM są zatem wydarzeniem bardzo kompleksowym, ale koniecznym w panoramie życia dzisiejszego Kościoła.
