Authors: Silva Anabela G. , Couto Pedro Sá , Queirós Alexandra , Neto Maritza , Rocha Nelson P. 
Published: June 2017

Abstract

Background
Existing studies on the association between physical activity (PA), screen based time and sleeping show conflicting results.

Objective
This study investigates the association between chronic pain at different body regions and self-reported PA, screen based time and sleeping hours in high school students.

Subjects
A total of 969 students aged 13–19 years old.

Methods
Participants completed a questionnaire on chronic pain, time spent in moderate and vigorous PA, screen based time watching televivsion (TV)/digital versatile discs (DVD), playing, using mobile phones and computers and sleeping hours. Univariate and multivariate associations between pain and PA, screen based time and sleeping hours were investigated.

Results
In the univariate model time spent in moderate and vigorous PA, in screen based activities and sleeping were associated with pain in at least one body site. In the multivariate model, screen based activities were not associated with pain; sleeping 7 h or less and increased time in moderate PA were associated with pain at almost all body sites [odds ratio (OR) between 2.69–3.66 and 1.06–1.10, respectively].

Conclusion
Time spent in PA and sleeping increased the risk of chronic pain in almost all body regions and might confound the association between screen based time and pain.

AbstractBackgroundThe objective of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a school-based physical activity and nutritional behavior intervention, on the reduction of clustering of chronic diseases risk factors among school children.Materials and methodsA quasi-experimental school-based intervention was conducted with an intervention group and a control group in the region of Sousse in Tunisia. The intervention was implemented between 2010 and 2013, with data collected at pre and at post intervention. Studied risk factors were: smoking, sedentary behavior, low fruit and vegetable intake and obesity. Odds ratios (ORs) were used to calculate the clustering of two risk factors. We calculated ORs in each group before and after the intervention.ResultsIn the intervention group, the prevalence of adolescents that had no risk factors has significantly increased (p = 0.004). In the control group the prevalence of adolescents carrying two or more risk factors has increased (p = 0.06). The results showed that all risk factors tended to cluster together in both groups. In the intervention group, the calculated OR for smoking and sedentary behavior decreased after assessment (OR = 5.93) as well as the OR for smoking and low fruit and vegetable intake (OR = 3.26). In the control group, all ORs increased, showing an enhancement of the association.ConclusionThis study showed the effectiveness of a school-based intervention in reducing the clustering of chronic diseases risk factors.
Rachel Weeping: Intertextuality as a Means of Transforming the Readers’ Worldview
Authors: Doane Sébastien 
Published: June 2017

AbstractThe episode of the Bethlehem massacre (Matt 2:16-18) uses many levels of intertextuality as a rhetorical device, to solicit an emotional response powerful enough to influence the reader’s worldview. What effect do these intertexts have on Matthew’s readers? How is this affective appeal concerning Rachel’s tears intended to impact the reader’s response to Matthew’s story? Rachel weeping is an emotionally charged image that somehow merges two opposites: hope and sorrow. The intertextuality of this figure can influence readers encouraging them to criticize imperial ideologies that have used violence against innocent people in the past, and oppose those which do so currently.
Can early ultrasonography explain the lower miscarriage rates in twin as compared to singleton pregnancies following assisted reproduction?
Authors: Póvoa Ana , Matias Alexandra , Xavier Pedro , Blickstein Isaac 
Published: June 2017

Abstract

Objective:
To compare first trimester 2D conventional and 3D power Doppler angiography measures in twins and singletons following assisted reproduction.

Methods:
We prospectively evaluated 50 singleton and 47 twin pregnancies that eventually ended in live births. Patients were recruited from a single assisted reproductive technology (ART) center with standard treatment protocols. Obstetric ultrasound was performed at 8–9 weeks +6 days. Intervillous flow, uteroplacental circulation and uterine artery pulsatility (PI) and resistance index (RI) using two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound examination were evaluated. Using three-dimensional (3D) power Doppler angiography, placental volume and the 3D power Doppler indices from the intervillous and uteroplacental circulation were calculated.

Results:
Demographic and cycle characteristics were similar in mothers of singletons and twins. Placental volume was significantly (1.6-fold) larger in twins. Vascular density and blood perfusion in the intervillous space were lower in twins. The comparison of the other parameters did not show significant differences between singletons and twins.

Conclusion:
The data confirm the larger placental volume in twins, denoting a probable higher production of placental hormones that would support an early twin pregnancy. The lower vascular density and blood perfusion in the intervillous space in twins may also confer a reproductive advantage to them.

Published: June 2017

Abstract
The evolution of optical microscopy from an imaging technique into a tool for materials modification and fabrication is now being repeated with other characterization techniques, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), focused ion beam (FIB) milling/imaging, and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Fabrication and in situ imaging of materials undergoing a three-dimensional (3D) nano-structuring within a 1−100 nm resolution window is required for future manufacturing of devices. This level of precision is critically in enabling the cross-over between different device platforms (e.g. from electronics to micro-/nano-fluidics and/or photonics) within future devices that will be interfacing with biological and molecular systems in a 3D fashion. Prospective trends in electron, ion, and nano-tip based fabrication techniques are presented.

A novel fast target tracking method for UAV aerial image
Authors: Jianfang Liu , Hao Zheng , Jingli Gao 
Published: June 2017

Abstract
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) are able to achieve autonomous flight without drivers, and UAV has been a key tool to extract space data. Therefore, how to detect the trajectories of targets from UAV aerial image sequences is of great importance. Because local features are suitable to detect target tracking, we exploit scaleinvariant feature transform (SIFT) features to describe the interesting keypoints of targets. The main innovation of this paper is to utilize Multiple hypothesis tracking (MHT) algorithm to track an object (target) in a series of image sequences. Particularly, we develop a MHT framework based on a multidimensional assignment formulation and a sliding time window policy. To obtain target tracking from UAV aerial image sequences, three steps should be done, that is, 1) Breaking each track set into tracklet at a specific time, 2) Estimating the association cost of each track set, 3) Merging trajectory fragments to a longer one iteratively. Finally, we collect several UAV aerial image sequences with different target density to construct a dataset, and experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Abstract

Background
There have been few reports about high total dose hypofractionated proton beam therapy for central lung cancer. The aim of this study was to examine retrospectively the safety and efficacy of high total dose hypofractionated proton beam therapy for central lung cancer.

Patients and methods
Patients treated by proton beam therapy for central lung cancer located less than 2 cm from the trachea, mainstem bronchus, or lobe bronchus were included in this study. All patients received 80 Gy of relative biological dose effectiveness (RBE) in 25 fractions with proton beam therapy over 5 weeks between January 2009 and February 2015. The toxicities were evaluated using the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group and European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer criteria.

Results
Twenty patients, including 14 clinically inoperable patients (70%), received proton beam therapy for central lung cancer. The median patient age was 75 years (range: 63–90 years), the median follow up time was 27.5 months (range: 12–72 months), and the median tumor diameter was 39.5 mm (range: 24–81 mm). All patients were followed for at least 20 months or until death. The 2-year overall survival rate was 73.8% (100% in operable patients, and 62.5% in inoperable patients), and the 2-year local control rate was 78.5%. There was no Grade 3 or higher toxicities, including bronchial stricture, obstruction, and fistula.

Conclusions
The present study suggests that a high total dose hypofractionated proton beam therapy for central lung cancer was safe and feasible.
Impedance based detection of HMDSO poisoning in metal oxide gas sensors
Authors: Schüler Marco , Schneider Tizian , Sauerwald Tilman , Schütze Andreas 
Published: June 2017

Abstract
A commercial SnO2-based metal oxide gas sensor (UST GGS 1330) operated at a constant temperature of
170 ℃ was evaluated in a frequency range from 40 Hz to 110 MHz using an Agilent
4294A high precision impedance analyzer. The sensor was exposed to carbon monoxide and ethanol at three concentrations
each (1, 2 and 5 ppm) and at humidities of 40%rh and 60%rh. After application of the
test gas profile, the sensor was repeatedly poisoned with 9.3 ppm of HMDSO for 20 min, and the gas
test was repeated up to an overall poisoning dose of 930 ppm min (i.e. five times). Impedance data exhibit
characteristic features for the different test gases as well as for sensor poisoning. Using Haar-Wavelet transformation
and Adaptive Linear Approximation for feature extraction followed by feature selection with Recursive Feature Elimination
Support Vector Machines a total classification rate well above 98% was achieved for test gas type and
concentration as well as sensor poisoning state with linear discriminant analysis and a Mahalonobis distance classifier.
Der Bankier in Art. 54 SchG – ein überholtes Relikt aus einer anderen Zeit?
Authors: Casper Matthias 
Published: June 2017

Zusammenfassung
Art. 3 Satz 1 i. V. m. Art. 54 SchG regelt die passive Scheckfähigkeit, also die Frage, wer Bezogener eines Schecks sein kann. Dafür knüpft das Gesetz seit geraumer Zeit an den Begriff des Bankiers an, auf den das SchG auch an anderer Stelle in Art. 8, 37 und 38 SchG Bezug nimmt. Die Definition des Bankiers liest sich heute nicht nur sperrig, sondern mutet an, als sei sie aus der Zeit gefallen. Der Beitrag zeigt, dass diese Definition durch die Verwendung von Begriffen, die heute im KWG geregelt und dort mehrfach geändert worden sind, so kaum noch verständlich und somit reformbedürftig ist. Dies gilt umso mehr, als seit 2009 eine Gesetzeslücke für solche Institute droht, die allein Zahlungsdienste im Sinne des ZAG erbringen und nicht zugleich auch über eine Erlaubnis nach dem KWG verfügen. Der Beitrag plädiert für einen gesetzgeberischen Neustart.
Bedingungen in Pflichtangeboten
Authors: Fest Timo 
Published: June 2017

Zusammenfassung
Öffentliche Übernahmeangebote werden in der Regel unter Bedingungen abgegeben, z. B. dem Erreichen einer bestimmten Beteiligungshöhe oder dem Ausbleiben wesentlicher nachteiliger Veränderungen der Zielgesellschaft (sog. MAC-Klauseln). Im Gegensatz dazu sind Pflichtangebote bedingungsfeindlich. Während dieser Grundsatz in § 39 WpÜG durch den Geltungsausschluss von § 18 Abs. 1 WpÜG angedeutet ist, haben die bereits im Gesetzgebungsverfahren für notwendig erachteten Ausnahmen keinen Eingang in den Gesetzestext gefunden. Dieses Transparenzdefizit nimmt der Beitrag zum Anlass, einzelne Ausnahmen zu identifizieren, Folgefragen eines bedingten Pflichtangebots zu beleuchten und auf Grundlage einer rechtsvergleichenden Betrachtung einen Regelungsvorschlag für das WpÜG zu unterbreiten.
Suburban Families’ Experience With Food Insecurity Screening in Primary Care Practices
Authors: Palakshappa Deepak , Doupnik Stephanie , Vasan Aditi , Khan Saba , Seifu Leah , Feudtner Chris , Fiks Alexander G. 
Published: June 2017

BACKGROUND:
Food insecurity (FI) remains a major public health problem. With the rise in suburban poverty, a greater understanding of parents’ experiences of FI in suburban settings is needed to effectively screen and address FI in suburban practices.

METHODS:
We conducted 23 semistructured interviews with parents of children &lt;4 years of age who presented for well-child care in 6 suburban pediatric practices and screened positive for FI. In the interviews, we elicited parents’ perceptions of screening for FI, how FI impacted the family, and recommendations for how practices could more effectively address FI. All interviews were audio recorded and transcribed. We used a modified grounded theory approach to code the interviews inductively and identified emerging themes through an iterative process. Interviews continued until thematic saturation was achieved.

RESULTS:
Of the 23 parents interviewed, all were women, with 39% white and 39% African American. Three primary themes emerged: Parents expressed initial surprise at screening followed by comfort discussing their unmet food needs; parents experience shame, frustration, and helplessness regarding FI, but discussing FI with their clinician helped alleviate these feelings; parents suggested practices could help them more directly access food resources, which, depending on income, may not be available to them through government programs.

CONCLUSIONS:
Although most parents were comfortable discussing FI, they felt it was important for clinicians to acknowledge their frustrations with FI and facilitate access to a range of food resources.

A talajok tulajdonságainak javítása céljából végzett bioszénnel történő kezelések hatása a különböző fizikai, kémiai és biológiai tulajdonságú talajok esetében még nem teljesen ismert. Kísérleteinket homoktalajon végeztük az MTA ATK TAKI Őrbottyánban lévő kísérleti telepén, ahol kukoricát vetettek. Hét kezelést vizsgáltunk, négy ismétlésben. Három esetben a talaj különböző dózisban bioszenet és konstans dózisú műtrágyát tartalmazott (0,1 m/m%; 0,5 m/m%; 1 m/m%; jelölésük BC0,1M; BC0,5M; BC1,0M), három esetben pedig a fent említett bioszén dózisokat egységesen 10 t/ha komposzttal egészítettük ki (BC0,1K; BC0,5K; BC1,0K). Ezek mellett pedig kialakítottunk egy bioszén és komposzt mentes abszolút kontroll (K) kezelést is. Kutatásunk során talajszondákkal monitoroztuk a talajnedvességtartalmának alakulását, valamint statikus kamrás mintavételi eljárással a talajlégzést is mértük a kezelésekben.
A talajnedvesség éves átlagát nézve 1% bioszénnel és komposzttal kezelt parcella esetében a talaj nedvességtartalma nem szignifikáns mértékben növekedett a bioszén és komposzt mentes abszolút kontroll környezethez képest. Csapadékesemények alkalmával az 1% bioszenet és komposztot tartalmazó parcellában nőtt meg legjobban a talajnedvesség, illetve hasonlóan alakult a nedvességtartalom a 0,5% bioszénnel kezelt műtrágyás parcellában is. Csapadékesemények után az összes bioszenet és műtrágyát, illetve bioszenet és komposztot tartalmazó parcellában gyorsabban száradt ki a talaj a kontrollhoz képest. A csapadékban szegényebb, szárazabb időszak alkalmával egyedül az 1% bioszenet és komposztot tartalmazó kezelés talajnedvessége volt magasabb a kontrollhoz képest, a 0,5% bioszénnel és műtrágyával kezelt, komposzt mentes esetben a nedvesség hasonlóan alakult a kontrollhoz viszonyítva, az összes többi esetben jóval az alatt maradtak az értékek.
Összességében megállapítható, hogy a komposztot tartalmazó talajok érzékenyebben reagáltak a csapadékra, a legjobb vízgazdálkodást az 1% bioszén és komposzt kezelés esetében értük el. Önmagában a bioszén nagy mennyiségű (1,0 m/m%) adagolása nem volt egyértelműen talajnedvesség-növelő hatású.
A bioszén szén-dioxid forgalomra történő hatását a talajlégzés mérésével vizsgáltuk. A bioszénnel, valamint műtrágyával kezelt és a kontroll kezelések között csak néhány esetben volt különbség. A komposzttal kevert bioszén kezelések alkalmával hasonló eredményre jutottunk, mint a műtrágyával kevert bioszén esetében. Eredményeink alapján arra következtethetünk, hogy a talajlégzés nem függött a bioszén dózisától. A bioszén talajlégzésre gyakorolt hatása közvetett módon, a talajnedvesség befolyásolásán keresztül valósul meg, mivel bioszenet alkalmazva bizonyos esetekben a talajnedvesség emelkedett a kontrollhoz képest, ekkor a talajlégzés ugyancsak magasabb lett, amely jelenség a komposzttal kezelt esetekben jól megfigyelhető volt.

Published: June 2017

Kesetimbangan kimia merupakan konsep abstrak/terdefinisi dengan contoh konkrit yang memerlukan pemahaman pada fenomena makroskopik, submikroskopik, simbolik serta keterhubungan ketiga levelnya. Namun bahan ajar yang digunakan pada pembelajaran kimia belum sepenuhnya mengembangkan keterhubungan multipel representasi (makroskopik, submikroskopik, dan simbolik). Penelitian Research and Development ini ditujukan untuk mengembangkan bahan ajar yang memenuhi keterhubungan tiga level representasi pada materi kesetimbangan kimia. Penelitian dilakukan melalui tiga tahap: 1) Studi pendahuluan meliputi (tahap analisis konsep, analisis representasi, storyboard), 2) Desain produk, 3) validasi dan uji kelayakan. Dari hasil penelitian didapatkan produk bahan ajar dengan menghubungkan tiga level representasi kimia. Representasi makroskopik disajikan dalam bentuk wacana fenomena kontekstual dan prosedur kerja percobaan, representasi submikroskopik divisualisasikan melalui gambar dan animasi video yang keterhubungannya disajikan dalam bentuk representasi simbolik. Validasi konten dilakukan melalui pertimbangan 6 orang ahli materi dan uji coba kelayakan bahan ajar terhadap 20 orang siswa. Berdasarkan hasil validasi dan uji coba diperoleh kesimpulan bahwa bahan ajar yang dikembangkan layak digunakan dalam pembelajaran kimia.

Authors: Kusumawati Rinta , Basmal Jamal 
Published: June 2017

Penelitian penerimaan panelis dan konsumen terhadap dodol garut yang disubstitusi dengan tepung alginat telah dilakukan. Formula dodol garut yang digunakan adalah formula yang dikembangkan oleh salah satu industri dodol di Kota Garut yang menggunakan agar kertas. Substitusi terhadap agar kertas dilakukan dengan perbandingan agar kertas : tepung alginat sebagai berikut: 1:0; 1:1; dan 0:1. Kualitas dodol ditetapkan melalui uji skor oleh 15 panelis semi terlatih untuk parameter kenampakan, rasa, bau, kekerasan, kekenyalan, dan kelengketan. Selain itu juga dilakukan uji penerimaan konsumen oleh 102 panelis tidak terlatih dan pengukuran tekstur menggunakan texture analizer. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa substitusi agar kertas dengan hidrogel tepung alginat (0:1) memberikan pengaruh pada parameter kelengketan, namun tidak mempengaruhi parameter kenampakan, rasa, bau, kekerasan, dan kekenyalan. Konsumen juga menilai suka sampai sangat suka untuk formula tersebut dimana dodol terasa lembut saat dikunyah tetapi sedikit lengket. Hal ini sesuai dengan hasil pengukuran texture analizer terhadap parameter kelengketan sebesar 1.029,92 dan kepaduan (cohesiveness) 0,42 yang lebih tinggi dari formulasi dengan agar kertas saja atau campuran agar kertas dan alginat.
Osobowe spotkanie z Jezusem w słowie Bożym. Aktualność adhortacji „Verbum Domini”
Authors: Bieliński Krzysztof 
Published: June 2017

Punkt wyjścia artykułu stanowi przedstawione w adhortacji Verbum Domini współ­czesne rozeznanie i przeświadczenie Kościoła o potrzebie głoszenia chrześcijanom na nowo i z przekonaniem słowa Bożego, „by mogli konkretnie doświadczyć mocy Ewangelii” (VD 96). Przypomniana w dokumencie nieprzedawniona możliwość „ponawiania spotkania” z osobą Jezusa Chrystusa w słowie Bożym ukazana została na podstawie dwóch aspektów misterium słowa Bożego: jego skutecznego i sakramentalnego charakteru. Autor przestrzega przed zawężonym rozumieniem misterium słowa, które opowiada się za jego skutecznością zarezerwowaną jedynie do sprawowania liturgii i wskazuje na przeżywającą dziś renesans praktykę modlitwy słowem Bożym na drodze lectio divina.
Ewangeliczne etapy rozwoju postawy miłosierdzia w świetle wybranych fragmentów pism ojców Kościoła
Authors: Mateja Leszek 
Published: June 2017

W artykule przedstawiono zarys ewangelicznych etapów rozwoju postawy miło­sierdzia w wymiarze materialnym w świetle wybranych fragmentów pism ojców Kościoła, wiążąc je z etapami inicjacji przedchrzcielnej w starożytnym Kościele. W tym celu wykorzystano metodę inicjacyjnego odczytania tekstów Nowego Testamentu. Dzięki tej metodzie wyodrębniono na etapie wstępnym inicjacji miłosierdzie podejmowane ze względu na dobro człowieka, zwane filantropią. Na etapie preakatechumenalnym inicjowany był już wzywany, aby podejmować czyny miłosierdzia ze względu na Boga. Celem etapu katechumenalnego było natomiast doskonalenie wrażliwości miłosierdzia. Pod koniec tego etapu wzywano katechumena do wolności wobec dóbr materialnych, którymi w większym stopniu niż poprzednio miał dzielić się z ubogimi. Katechumenat kończył się doskonaleniem postawy wyrażonej w miłości nieprzyjaciół, był to jednocześnie moment przyjęcia chrztu i wejścia w doświadczenie realizacji przykazania miłości wzajemnej.
