Published: December 2017

BACKGROUND:
Electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) use is common among youth, and there are concerns that e-cigarette use leads to future conventional cigarette use. We examined longitudinal associations between past-month cigarette and e-cigarette use to characterize the stability and directionality of these tobacco use trajectories over time.

METHODS:
High school students (N = 808, 53% female) completed surveys across 3 waves (2013, 2014, and 2015) in 3 public schools in Connecticut. Using autoregressive cross-lagged models, we examined bidirectional relationships between past-month cigarette and e-cigarette use over time. Models were adjusted for covariates related to tobacco use (ie, sex, race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and use of other tobacco products).

RESULTS:
Past-month e-cigarette use predicted future cigarette use (wave 1–2: odds ratio [OR] = 7.08, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.34–21.42; wave 2–3: OR = 3.87, 95% CI = 1.86–8.06). However, past-month cigarette use did not predict future e-cigarette use (wave 1–2: OR = 2.02, 95% CI = 0.67–6.08; wave 2–3: OR = 1.90, 95% CI = 0.77–4.71). Additionally, frequency of cigarette and e-cigarette use increased over time. By wave 3, 26% of cigarette users and 20.5% of e-cigarette users reported using 21–30 days out of the past month.

CONCLUSIONS:
E-cigarette use was associated with future cigarette use across 3 longitudinal waves, yet cigarette use was not associated with future e-cigarette use. Future research needs to examine mechanisms through which e-cigarette use leads to cigarette use. E-cigarette regulation and prevention programs may help prevent future use of cigarettes among youth.
La lectura hegeliana de “La antinomia de la razón pura”
Authors: Herszenbaun Miguel Alejandro 
Published: December 2017

En la Ciencia de la lógica, Hegel analiza las dos antinomias matemáticas kantianas, realiza una crítica interna de sus pruebas y concluye que son meras peticiones de principio. A pesar de ello, reconoce la legitimidad del descubrimiento kantiano. En este artículo se analiza cómo se integran y complementan esas dos miradas, para mostrar cómo se apropia Hegel de la antinomia de la razón pura para reconducirla a su fundamento conceptual, y despojarla así de todo contenido empírico, para lo cual tendrá que desactivarla mediante una crítica a la formulación kantiana.
The Power of Judging – or how to distinguish ‘indifference’ in Kant and Arendt. Some critical notes on the structure of activities
Authors: Kurbacher Frauke 
Published: December 2017

***O Poder do Julgar – ou como distinguir ‘Indiferença’ em Kant e Arendt. Algumas notas críticas sobre a estrutura das atividades***Um dos cenários mais horríveis da Ética – mais do que a imoralidade ou amoralidade – é a indiferença moral. A obra final de Arendt, A Vida do Espírito, mostra uma faceta diferente da “indiferença” e a vê como um componente vital do julgamento e da reflexão. O seguinte artigo aborda esta compreensão da indiferença. Arendt extrai da Terceira Crítica de Immanuel Kant, onde a emoção e a experiência são consideradas constitutivas, em contraste com as duas Críticas anteriores, a primeira das quais trata da função lógica do julgar e a segunda do julgamento moral. A este respeito – o background arendiano para o julgar pertence à estética e não à ética – é a liberdade do juízo estético que garante seu potencial ético. No trabalho de Arendt, o julgamento é a base incontestável de seu pensamento. Além dos dois tipos convencionais de julgamento de Kant – determinantes e reflexivos –, ele apresenta uma terceira maneira de julgar em sua Crítica da Faculdade do Juízo. Somente esse terceiro juízo estético reflexivo subjetivo (subjektiv ästhetisch-reflektierendes Urteil) tem o potencial para o que Kant chama de “reabilitação da emoção”. Este terceiro tipo de julgamento demonstraria que aqui Kant combina uma forma de indiferença e a idéia de julgamento protótipo, dando à indiferença um aspecto positivo. E apenas essa terceira forma constitui a base para os pensamentos gerais de Arendt sobre julgamento. A gama de tipos de julgamento no pensamento de Kant poderia de fato ser interpretada não apenas como três maneiras diferentes de pensar, ao que ele se refere com o termo Denkungsart, mas sim como três maneiras diferentes de entender o mundo.É, portanto, de particular interesse para Arendt em termos do que ela chama mudanidade. A diversidade do julgamento elaborada na Terceira Crítica de Kant é uma expressão existencial da capacidade humana para o que é conhecido como “Haltung” na língua alemã e em todas as outras línguas apenas traduz-se fragmentariamente como “postura”, “hábito” ou “atitude”. Não é simplesmente a capacidade de adotar um certo “Haltung”, mas também de mudá-lo.

Published: December 2017

Background
Studies show that different types of training have a significant role in reducing both new and traditional risk factors of cardiovascular diseases, and the new risk factors are more sensitive and accurate in predicting such diseases.

Objective
The aim of this study was to determine the effects of resistance and endurance exercises on risk factors of vascular inflammation and atherogenesis in non-athlete men.

Methods
Thirty-six non-athlete male students (mean age: 20.45 ± 1.20 years; mean body mass index: 23.66 ± 3.65 kg/m2) were randomly assigned into either three groups: control group, resistance training (RT), and endurance training (ET). The training groups exercised for 3 days/week for 8 weeks. ET group performed treadmill-running at 65%–80% of maximum heart rate and with a 16–30 min duration; the task of RT group consisted of three repetition sets, 8–10 per set, at 60%–80% of one repetition maximum, with 2-min recesses. Blood samples were taken before and after the training program. Data were analyzed by Shapiro–Wilk test, one-way ANOVA, LSD test, and dependent t-test (α ≤ 0.05).

Results
The results indicated a significant reduction in total cholesterol levels in both RT and ET groups. Also high-density lipoprotein cholesterol significantly increased in both training groups. In addition, following 8 weeks, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in ET group was significantly decreased, whereas these training methods have had no significant effects on the new cardiovascular biomarkers (hs-CRP, IL-6, and sICAM-1).

Conclusion
It seems that both ET and RT with improvement in lipid profiles could be effective in prevention and treatment of the cardiovascular disease.

Authors: Yadwad Kausar Jaha , Veena H. R. , Patil Sudhir R. , Shivaprasad B. M. 
Published: December 2017

Introduction
Chronic periodontitis (CP) is an infectious disease resulting in inflammation of the supporting tissues of the teeth with progressive attachment loss and bone loss. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of 980-nm diode laser, as an adjunct to scaling and root planing (SRP) in the management of CP.

Methodology
A total of 40 systemically healthy subjects diagnosed with CP were randomly assigned into two groups G1 (SRP and sham application of laser) and G2 (SRP and laser irradiation) with equal numbers in each. The levels of Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg) were estimated from plaque samples using real-time polymerase chain reaction. Clinical and microbiological parameters were assessed at baseline, 4–6, and 12–14 weeks posttreatment in both groups.

Results
A gradual reduction in the levels of Pg and improvement in clinical parameters were observed from baseline to 4–6 and 12–14 weeks in both groups. However, the comparison between groups, although clinically relevant, was not found to be statistically significant.

Conclusion
Although a 980-nm diode laser may not have any added benefit compared with SRP, it may emerge as an effective non-surgical treatment option in advanced periodontitis with complex inaccessible subgingival niches where comprehensive periodontal care may not be feasible.
Terápiás megfontolások IgA-nephropathiában a legutolsó vizsgálatok (STOP-IgAN, TESTING, NEFIGAN) eredményei alapján

Abstract: IgA nephropathy is an immune-mediated chronic glomerulonephritis with a great variability in clinical presentation and outcome. The disease can progress to end-stage renal failure in 25% of patients. For this reason we should identify patients with potential to progress. Most important risk factors for progression are persistent proteinuria, hypertension, decreased renal function and some histological lesions. The actually suggested treatment is summarized in KDIGO Clinical Practice Guideline from 2012. They suggest to give firstly non-specific supportive treatment (especially renin-angiotensin system blocking agents). Recommendation about steroid/immunosuppression treatment is based on low level of evidence. Recently three studies were organised concerning benefits and risk of steroid/immunosuppressive treatment added together with specific supportive treatment. In the STOP-IgAN study, systemic steroid/immunosuppressive treatment significantly decreased proteinuria but did not stop progression. In the TESTING study, systemic steroid treatment significantly decreased proteinuria and progression. However, the study was recently discontinued due to several severe side effects of steroid treatment. Involvement of intestinal mucosal immunity in the pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy suggested the NEFIGAN study with budesonide treatment. Budesonide releases corticosteroid in distal small intestine and colon. Proteinuria was significantly decreased and renal function remained stabile. High number of withdrawals owing to adverse effects is a major concern implying a substantial systemic effect of budesonide. We need further information on the characteristics of patients who most likely benefit from steroid/immunosuppressive treatment given after or together with specific supportive treatment.

Published: December 2017

The study was conducted at the edamame plantation area of PT. Mitra Tani 27 Jember with the size of 31.6 m x 29.8 m. The sampling of imature B. tabaci was done by collecting the samples of leaves from the five plots of planting. The adult samples were taken by setting some yellow traps with the size of 20 x 30 cm. The results showed that the populations of B. tabaci changed during the growing season of edamame, the older the plants grow, the greater number of the populations. The highest number of B. tabaci adult population was in the age of 10 weeks after planting, those were 818 B. tabaci. The increase of the B. tabaci population had a significant correlation with the increase of the predators population on edamame. There were seven species of predators founded at the edamame. The highest number of predator founded was Coccinella transversalis and the lowest number of predator was Coccinella septempunctata.

An Embedded Grid-Free Approach for Near-Wellbore Streamline Simulation
Authors: Wang Bin , Feng Yin , Du Juan , Wang Yihui , Wang Sijie , Yang Ruiyue 
Published: December 2017

SummaryReactive-transport phenomena, such as carbon dioxide sequestration and microbial enhanced oil recovery (EOR), have been of interest in streamline-based simulation (SLS). Tracing streamlines launched from a wellbore is important, especially for time-sensitive transport behaviors. However, discretized gridblocks are usually too large compared with the wellbore radius. Field-scale simulations with local-grid-refinement (LGR) models often consume huge computational time. An embedded grid-free approach to integrate near-wellbore transport behaviors into streamline simulations is developed, comprising two stages of development: tracing streamlines in a wellblock (a gridblock containing wells) and coupling streamlines with neighboring grids. The velocity field in a wellblock is produced using a gridless virtual-boundary-element method (VBEM), where streamlines are numerically traced with the fourth-order Runge-Kutta (RK4) method (Butcher 2008). The local streamline system is then connected with the global streamline system, which is produced with the Pollock (1988) algorithm. Finally, the reactive-transport equation will be solved along these streamlines.The algorithm presented for solving near-wellbore streamlines is verified by both a commercial finite-element simulator and a Pollock-algorithm-based 3D streamline simulator. A series of computational cases of reactive-transport simulation is studied to demonstrate the applicability, accuracy, and efficiency of the proposed method. Velocity field, time-of-flight (TOF), streamline pattern, and concentration distribution produced by different approaches are analyzed. Results show that the presented method can accurately perform near-wellbore streamline simulations in a time-effective manner. The algorithm can be directly applied to one grid containing multiple wells or to off-center wells. Furthermore, assuming streamlines are evenly launched from the gridblock boundary or ignoring transport in the wellblock is not always reasonable, and may lead to a significant error.This study provides a simple and grid-free solution, but is capable of capturing the flow field near the wellbore with significant accuracy and computational efficiency. The method is promising for reservoir SLS with time-sensitive transport, and other simulations requiring an accurate assessment of interactions between wells in one particular gridblock.

Non-Group 1 Pulmonary Hypertension Associated With Systemic Sclerosis: An Under-studied Patient Population
Authors: Anklesaria Zafia , Saggar Rajeev , Derhovanessian Ariss , Saggar Rajan 
Published: December 2017

Background: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a heterogeneous disorder that results in multiorgan dysfunction. The most common pulmonary manifestations are pulmonary hypertension (PH) and interstitial lung disease (ILD). Systemic sclerosis may be complicated by World Health Organization (WHO) Group 1 PH (SSc-PAH), which is the most well-studied subtype. The PH associated with SSc may also be secondary to underlying left heart disease (SSc-PH-LHD) or ILD (SSc-PH-ILD), and these subgroups are classified as WHO Group 2 and Group 3 PH, respectively. These non-WHO Group 1 PH subsets are notoriously under-studied. Available data suggest that the impact of PH-specific therapy in SSc-PH-LHD and SSc-PH-ILD is limited and survival is poor despite attempted treatment.Implication for clinicians: Most research and clinical trials surrounding PH in SSc have thus far focused on WHO Group 1 SSc-PAH. There are limited data surrounding therapeutic options for WHO Group 2 (SSc-PH-LHD) and Group 3 PH (SSc-PH-ILD) phenotypes. This review aims to summarize and consolidate the data surrounding these 2 distinct clinical phenotypes and to emphasize the available prognostic and treatment considerations.Conclusions: Given the unique pathophysiology, prognostic implications, and poor response to treatment of WHO Group 2 and 3 SSc-PH phenotypes, there is an overwhelming need for more data to best understand optimal management strategies. The focus should be individual patient-level prognostication, how and when to initiate and manage PH-specific therapy, and appropriate triage with regard to the timing of lung (or heart-lung) transplantation.

Published: December 2017

Background:Algeria has a particular geographical position with a wide band of very varied vegetation including the aromatic and medicinal plants. These plants are able to produce much diversified natural compounds, which can be very useful health care and treatment of diseases.Objective:This study was carried out to evaluate the antioxidant capacity and antibacterial activity of Anvillea radiata (Asteraceae) extracts, one of the medicinal plants used as food and in folk medicine in Algeria.Methods:The extraction was carried on the aerial part by methanol and water to give Met.E and Aq.E. The ABTS and DPPH free radicals-scavenging tests are used to evaluate the antioxidant activity of extracts. Moreover, the antibacterial activity was evaluated using disc diffusion method. Finally, the extracts were subject to the phytochemical analysis using the HPLC-TOF/MS equipment.Results:The Met.E showed the highest amount of total phenolic and flavonoids content (266.12 µg EAG/mg E and 50.83 µg EQ/mg E, respectively). The results of the antioxidant activity revealed that the Met.E showed a good scavenging activity against ABTS and DPPH free radical with EC50=0.067 mg/ml and EC50=0.33 mg/ml, respectively. Moreover, the A. radiata extracts present a highest antibacterial activity against M. luteus NRRL B-4375, B. subtilis NRRL NRS-744 and S. aureus ATCC 25923, with inhibition zone ranging from 18 to 23 mm to Met.E and 12-18 mm to the Aq.E. In addition, the Met.E of A. radiata showed a better MIC against S. aureus, M. luteus and B. subtilis (MIC= 6.25, 25 and 25 µg/ml, respectively). The HPLC-TOF/MS analysis of Met.E reveals the presence of two major compounds, rutin and fumaric acid, when Aq.E contains the syringic acid as a major compound.Conclusion:The data of our study reported that the Met.E extract of A. radiata had a considerable antioxidant capacity and antibacterial effect, which may be due to their richness by phenolic compounds such as rutin and fumaric acid.
Influence of Fineness of Recycled Glass Waste and Slag on Compressive Strength of Sulphate Resisting Cement Mortars
Authors: Amin Muhammad Nasir 
Published: December 2017

Background:
Cement and concrete industry is responsible for 5% of the worldwide man-made CO2 emission to environment. Therefore, the demands of producing low carbon concrete is increasing every day for climate change mitigation and adaptations.

Objective:
To minimize the amount of clinker production and associated CO2 emission, the potential use of recycled ground glass waste (GGW) and electric arc furnace slag (EAFS) as a substitute of cement was evaluated through compressive strength tests on mortars and by calculating their strength activity index (SAI) values.

Method:
At first, two optimized fineness levels were attained for both cement substituting materials used in this study (GGW as glass fine ˂ 38µm (GF), glass superfine ˂ 25µm (GSF) and EAFS as slag fine ˂ 75µm (SF), slag superfine ˂ 32µm (SSF)). In addition to control mortar (CM), four types of binary mortar mixtures were cast by substituting cement 5-20% with GGW (GF and GSF) and 10-30% with EAFS (SF and SSF). ASTM C109 and C311 were employed to perform compressive strength tests and to calculate the SAI values, respectively.

Results:
The results demonstrated that the strength of mortar increased with increasing fineness of both the cement substitute materials. More specifically, the compressive strength of mortar containing GSF matched with those of CM at 5% substitution and comparable for its other substitutions (10, 15, and 20%) at age of one-year. Similar results were noticed for SSF at its 10% substitution where it produced the best comparable results to CM. However, the strength of mortars containing SF or 30% SSF was significantly reduced as compared to CM.

Conclusion:
Almost all the mortars containing GGW or EAFS have satisfied the strength activity criteria of ASTM C989 Grade 80 of blast furnace slag, except those containing 20 and 30% of SF. Moreover, the mortars containing GSF and SSF matched BFS of Grade 100 corresponding to their 5 and 10% substitutions, respectively.
