Number 13 / Part I. Music. 8. The Development of Music-Pedagogical Education of Ukraine in The 60's –70-ies of The XX Century
Authors: Cherkasov Vladimir 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
The article has analyzed and systematized the development of musical-pedagogical education in Ukraine in the 60's -70-ies of XX century. It has summarized the experience of training of specialists with higher musical-pedagogical education at the faculties of Humanities, where the 50's - 60's graduates received diplomas of philologists, historians, geographers with additional qualification of a teacher of music and singing. It has also been grounded the establishment of the first musical-pedagogical faculties at educational institutions in different regions of Ukraine (Kyiv, Luhansk, Drohobych, Odesa, Zaporozhia). Having based on the analysis of the archival documents it has been revealed the main directions of the formation of teaching staff of specialized departments, organization of the educational process, creation of the art groups, participation of students in research work, teaching practice at secondary schools. It has been proved the importance of concert performance and musical educational work in the pedagogical formation of prospective teachers of music and singing. Their role in raising the level of musical and aesthetic education of children and youth in the 60's of last century has been proved. The 70‟s years of the twentieth century of the history of Ukraine are known as the years of corresponding changes in the socio-political processes, "thaw" in all spheres of life, particularly in the organization of higher education activity. This period of musical-pedagogical education is characterized by democratization and the search for more advanced forms of the educational-upbringing process.
1. Necklaces and Pendants of the Metal Age on the Territory of Romania
Authors: Olaru Ioana-Iulia 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
The present paper will refer to an aspect of processing metals on the territory of Romania, in Bronze Age and Iron Age (the second age habing been studied up to the moment when Prehistory ended: 1st century B.C., being continued by Antiquity). Unfortunately, few pieces were found in settlements and in necropoleis, so it is difficult to attribute the artifacts of the Metal Age to one or other of the existing cultures, though the region where they were produced can be mentioned. Consequently, their study can lead to another classification than the chronological one, and that is of the field of ornamental arts in metal. We will focus only on two types of objects that embellish the neck and the chest: necklaces and pendants, which help us create a vivid image of this important artistic field of the Iron Age on the territory of our country, these two joining the other important types of jewels: bracelets, rings, fibulae, phaleras.
6. Some Methodology Aspects Regarding the Organic Deposits Removal Interventions in the Prothesis of the Church of Dragomirna Monastery
Authors: Gavrilean Bogdan Teodor 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
Less visible to the general public, the area of the Prothesis inside the sanctuary of the “Pentecost” heritage church, of Dragomirna Monastery, shows a particular casuistic due to the diversity of types of degradation recorded at the time of its restoration (2011). The dominant form is the adherent candlewax deposits, present on the surface of the paint layer in various stages of hardness. The particular state of conservation features occurring in this area, corroborated with a series of aggravating environmental factors, imposed the application of a special restoration intervention methodology in the area of the Prothesis.
12. The Visual Art from Iasi between Tradition and Innovation
Authors: Ştefănescu Mirela 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
After December 1989 in visual art from Iasi were produced numerous changes which have contributed to a new approach of the artistic phenomenon. That was the moment when a new generation of artists appeared and who, unshackle by the rigors of the communist regime, they have created artworks by experimenting the most varied ways of visual expression. An important aspect of this transition period is the place which visual art has it in the culture from Iasi and the aesthetic trends learned by the new generation alongside older artistic directions define the value of the contemporary cultural heritage from Iasi. Also, an important role in the presentation of the visual art from Iasi is the artistic education, which it‟s in a constant development with the advent of new specializations within the Faculty of Visual Arts and Design, highlighting the artistic and scientific potential of the professors and the students of „George Enescu“ Național University of Arts from Iasi.
Practices for modeling oil shale pyrolysis and kinetics
Authors: Raja Muhammad Afzal , Zhao Yongsheng , Zhang Xiangping , Li Chunshan , Zhang Suojiang 
Published: March 2017

AbstractOil shale is one of the largest, relatively undeveloped natural fossil fuel resources in the world and so an important potential source of energy. The organic matter of oil shale is present as a complex combination of carbon, hydrogen, sulfur and oxygen named kerogen. Pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy affords the opportunity to chemically characterize the main structural skeleton in this kerogen and is a favorable method to study the structural characteristics of kerogen at a molecular level. The thermal degradation of oil shale kerogen is a complex chemical process, accompanied by the wide variety of products obtained, which poses difficulties in the determination of the kinetics and mechanism of pyrolysis. Understanding the kinetics of kerogen decomposition to oil is critical to design a viable retorting process. Comprehensive kinetic data are also essential for accurate mathematical modeling of various oil shale processes. Classic graphical methods cannot unambiguously measure and estimate kinetic parameters due to the mathematical complexity. Advanced isoconversion methods would be appropriate for the calculation of the distribution of activation energies for multiple reactions involved in the decomposition of complex material such as kerogen to products. The range of variability in the principal activation energy is from about 200 to 242 kJ mol−1, with most samples being in the middle half of that range, while the range of frequency factors most likely in the 1012–1016s−1range, with most values within the middle half of that range. The review presents the complexity of the oil shale pyrolysis mechanism and pyrolysis kinetics along with the challenges in experimental procedures and modeling of oil shale pyrolysis kinetics.

Authors: Piršić Ana , Šipić Tomislav , Štambuk Krešimir , Budinčević Hrvoje 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
Use of non-ionic contrast media (CM) in coronary arteriography has been reported to cause transient cortical blindness, confusion, amnesia and very rare focal deficits. We report a 69-year old patient with stable angina pectoris who underwent coronary angioplasty with stent placement due to in-stent thrombosis of the right coronary artery and developed stroke symptoms with radiological suspicion of subarachnoid hemorrhage. No vascular malformations were detected on CT cerebral angiography. Dual antiplatelet treatment was continued. Complete neurological recovery was observed within 48 hours post angiography. As observed with repeated CT scans, sulcal hyperdensities mostly faded after 24 hours and totally disappeared within 7 days when she was discharged home. Our case shows transient neurological symptoms and rapid disappearing of sulcal hyperdensities, suggesting temporary blood brain barrier disruption, consequential cerebral infarction and contrast media extravasation as the main mechanisms which allowed us to treat the patient with dual antiplatelet treatment.
In Search of a Theory: The Interpretative Challenge of Empirical Findings on Cultural Variance in Mindreading
Authors: Gut Arkadiusz , Mirski Robert 
Published: March 2017

AbstractIn this paper, we present a battery of empirical findings on the relationship between cultural context and theory of mind that show great variance in the onset and character of mindreading in different cultures; discuss problems that those findings cause for the largely-nativistic outlook on mindreading dominating in the literature; and point to an alternative framework that appears to better accommodate the evident cross-cultural variance in mindreading. We first outline the theoretical frameworks that dominate in mindreading research, then present the relevant empirical findings, and finally we come back to the theoretical approaches in a discussion of their explanatory potential in the face of the data presented. The theoretical frameworks discussed are the two-systems approach; performance-based approach also known as modularity-nativist approach; and the social-communicative theory also known as the systems, relational-systems, dynamic systems and developmental systems theory. The former two, which both fall within the wider modular-computational paradigm, run into a challenge with the cross-cultural data presented, and the latter - the systemic framework - seems to offer an explanatorily potent alternative. The empirical data cited in this paper comes from research on cross-cultural differences in folk psychology and theory-of-mind development; the influence of parenting practices on the development of theory of mind; the development and character of theory of mind in deaf populations; and neuroimaging research of cultural differences in mindreading.
The Role of Emotions in Delusion Formation
Authors: Smurzyńska Adrianna 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
The text concerns the role of emotions in delusion formation. Provided are definitions from DSM-V and DSM-IV-R and the problems found in those definitions. One of them, the problem of delusion formation, is described when providing cognitive theories of delusions. The core of the paper is a presentation of the emotional and affective disorders in delusions, especially Capgras delusion and Cotard delusion. The author provides a comparison of the kinds of delusions and the conclusions taken from neuroimaging studies. As a result of the fact that an explanation of delusion formation focusing on emotional problems turns out to be insufficient, the author provides examples of the reasoning impairments which coexist with them. At the end of the article, some hypotheses are proposed concerning the role of emotions and reasoning in delusion formation and the relation between belief disorders and emotional disorders.
Language Acquisition in the Light of Rationalist Philosophy of Mind and Philosophy of Language
Authors: Święczkowska Halina , Piecychna Beata 
Published: March 2017

AbstractThe present study deals with the problem of the acquisition of language in children in the light of rationalist philosophy of mind and philosophy of language. The main objective of the paper is to present the way Gerauld de Cordemoy’s views on the nature of language, including its socio-linguistic aspects, and on the process of speech acquisition in children are reflected in contemporary writings on how people communicate with each other. Reflections on 17th-century rationalist philosophy of mind and the latest research conducted within the field of cognitive abilities of human beings indicate that between those two spheres many similarities could be discerned in terms of particular stages of the development of speech and its physical aspects.

Abstract:
The authors considered the bulk viscous fluid in f(R, T) gravity within the framework of Kaluza–Klein space time. The bulk viscous coefficient (ξ) expressed as

$\xi = {\xi _0} + {\xi _1}{{\dot a} \over a} + {\xi _2}{{\ddot a} \over {\dot a}},$

where ξ
0, ξ
1, and ξ
2 are positive constants. We take p=(γ−1)ρ, where 0≤γ≤2 as an equation of state for perfect fluid. The exact solutions to the corresponding field equations are given by assuming a particular model of the form of f(R, T)=R+2f(T), where f(T)=λT, λ is constant. We studied the cosmological model in two stages, in first stage: we studied the model with no viscosity, and in second stage: we studied the model involve with viscosity. The cosmological model involve with viscosity is studied by five possible scenarios for bulk viscous fluid coefficient (ξ). The total bulk viscous coefficient seems to be negative, when the bulk viscous coefficient is proportional to

ξ

${\xi _2}{{\ddot a} \over {\dot a}},$

hence, the second law of thermodynamics is not valid; however, it is valid with the generalised second law of thermodynamics. The total bulk viscous coefficient seems to be positive, when the bulk viscous coefficient is proportional to

so the second law of thermodynamics and the generalised second law of thermodynamics is satisfied throughout the evolution. We calculate statefinder parameters of the model and observed that it is different from the ∧CDM model. Finally, some physical and geometrical properties of the models are discussed.
Scent gland constituents of the Middle American burrowing python, Loxocemus bicolor (Serpentes: Loxocemidae)
Authors: Schulze Thies , Weldon Paul J. , Schulz Stefan 
Published: March 2017

Abstract:
Analysis by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry of the scent gland secretions of male and female Middle American burrowing pythons (Loxocemus bicolor) revealed the presence of over 300 components including cholesterol, fatty acids, glyceryl monoalkyl ethers, and alcohols. The fatty acids, over 100 of which were identified, constitute most of the compounds in the secretions and show the greatest structural diversity. They include saturated and unsaturated, unbranched and mono-, di-, and trimethyl-branched compounds ranging in carbon-chain length from 13 to 24. The glyceryl monoethers possess saturated or unsaturated, straight or methyl-branched alkyl chains ranging in carbon-chain length from 13 to 24. Alcohols, which have not previously been reported from the scent glands, possess straight, chiefly saturated carbon chains ranging in length from 13 to 24. Sex or individual differences in secretion composition were not observed. Compounds in the scent gland secretions of L. bicolor may deter offending arthropods, such as ants.

Published: March 2017

Abstract:
The size effect of nanoscale silicon in both amorphous and porous silicon was investigated with micro-Raman spectroscopy. Silicon nanostructures in amorphous silicon were deposited on quartz substrates by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) with deposition powers of 15, 30 and 50 W. Micro-Raman spectra of the nanostructured silicon show the T2g Raman active mode shifting from the 521 cm−1 crystalline Si Raman line to 494, 499 and 504 cm−1 as deposition power increased. Large Raman mode shifts, up to 27 cm−1 and broadening up to 23 cm−1 of the T2g Raman-active mode is attributed to a phonon confinement effect. The analysis of micro-Raman scattering data is useful to understand the role of deposition condition of the silicon sample. In addition, micro-Raman scattering intensity of porous silicon prepared using various current densities such as 10, 50 and 125 mA/cm2 has also been investigated. The effect of phonon confinement on the nanoscale porous silicon has been quantified. The relationship between Raman shift and stress on the porous silicon has been evaluated.
Zwei neue Hilfsmittel für die Erforschung des Dolomitenladinischen: das Corpus dl ladin leterar und das Vocabolar dl ladin leterar
Authors: Videsott Paul 
Published: March 2017

AbstractThe aim of this paper is to present two new tools for research into Dolomites Ladin: theThe CLL is a fully internet-accessible tool (<vll.ladintal.it>). It is presented with its diatopic and diachronic structure, and with its different search options. The most notable characteristic of the CLL is that every text is included in its original form and in a modernised one. The aim of these double encoded versions is to be useful for linguists as well as for the language community.The VLL is accessible online as well (<vll.smallcodes.com>). It is the first Ladin dictionary that is completely text-based. Each entry contains a metalinguistic description, and includes dialectal forms, the etymology, the first attestation, a definition (in Italian) of the different meanings, and a translation into Italian and German. Every meaning is documented by a large set of examples taken from Ladin literature.

Authors: Allen Jakob D. , Casavant Marcel J. , Spiller Henry A. , Chounthirath Thiphalak , Hodges Nichole L. , Smith Gary A. 
Published: March 2017

OBJECTIVES:This study analyzes and compares exposures to prescription opioids among children and adolescents younger than 20 years old in the United States.METHODS:Data from the National Poison Data System for 2000 through 2015 were analyzed.RESULTS:Poison control centers received reports of 188 468 prescription opioid exposures among children aged &lt;20 years old from 2000 through 2015. The annual number and rate of exposures increased early in the study period, but declined after 2009, except for buprenorphine exposures, which increased during the last 3 study years. Hydrocodone accounted for the largest proportion of exposures (28.7%), and 47.1% of children exposed to buprenorphine were admitted to a health care facility (HCF). The odds of being admitted to an HCF were higher for teenagers than for children aged 0 to 5 years (odds ratio [OR]: 2.86; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.78–2.94) or children aged 6 to 12 years (OR: 6.62; 95% CI: 6.06–7.02). Teenagers also had greater odds of serious medical outcomes than did children aged 0 to 5 years (OR: 3.03; 95% CI: 2.92–3.15) or children aged 6 to 12 years (OR: 4.59; 95% CI: 4.21–5.00). The rate of prescription opioid–related suspected suicides among teenagers increased by 52.7% during the study period.CONCLUSIONS:Prescription opioid–related HCF admissions and serious medical outcomes were higher among teenagers. Contrary to trends for other prescription opioids, exposures to buprenorphine have increased in recent years; children aged 0 to 5 years accounted for almost 90% of buprenorphine exposures. These findings indicate that additional prevention efforts are needed.
SAFE-HEaRt: Rationale and Design of a Pilot Study Investigating Cardiac Safety of HER2 Targeted Therapy in Patients with HER2-Positive Breast Cancer and Reduced Left Ventricular Function

Published: March 2017

Abstract

Background
Human epidermal growth receptor 2 (HER2) targeted therapies have survival benefit in adjuvant and metastatic HER2 positive breast cancer but are associated with cardiac dysfunction. Current U.S. Food and Drug Administration recommendations limit the use of HER2 targeted agents to patients with normal left ventricular (LV) systolic function.

Methods
The objective of the SAFE-HEaRt study is to evaluate the cardiac safety of HER2 targeted therapy in patients with HER2 positive breast cancer and mildly reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) with optimized cardiac therapy. Thirty patients with histologically confirmed HER2 positive breast cancer (stage I–IV) and reduced LVEF (40% to 49%) who plan to receive HER2 targeted therapy for ≥3 months will be enrolled. Prior to initiation on study, optimization of heart function with beta-blockers and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors will be initiated. Patients will be followed by serial echocardiograms and cardiac visits during and 6 months after completion of HER2 targeted therapy. Myocardial strain and blood biomarkers, including cardiac troponin I and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T, will be examined at baseline and during the study.

Discussion
LV dysfunction in patients with breast cancer poses cardiac and oncological challenges and limits the use of HER2 targeted therapies and its oncological benefits. Strategies to prevent cardiac dysfunction associated with HER2 targeted therapy have been limited to patients with normal LVEF, thus excluding patients who may receive the highest benefit from those strategies. SAFE-HEaRt is the first prospective pilot study of HER2 targeted therapies in patients with reduced LV function while on optimized cardiac treatment that can provide the basis for clinical practice changes.
Screening for root and shoot traits in different wheat species and wild wheat relatives
Authors: Akman Hayati , Akgun Necdet , Tamkoc Ahmet 
Published: March 2017

Background: Definitive comparison on root traits of wheat landraces, ancient wheats and wild wheat relatives are scarce. Those adaptive genetic resources with superior root and shoot traits can be utilized in breeding programs.
Questions: Do modern wheats have more superior root and shoot traits than ancient wheat species and wild wheat relatives?
Studied species: We performed large-scale screening for significant root and shoot traits of 47 different genotypes including cultivars, lines, landraces, ancient wheat species and wild wheat relatives belonging to 14 different species.
Study site and years: was carried out in Central Anatolian Conditions of Turkey from October, 2013 to July, 2014.
Methods: This study was conducted at 200 cm long tube under field weather conditions where plants can translate superior performance.
Results: A wide range of variations in terms of root and shoot traits were observed among the screened wheat cultivars, lines, landraces, ancient wheat species and wild wheat relatives. The grain yield per plant and root length per plant varied from 2.11 to 12.30 g and 134.7 to 250.7 cm in the cultivars, lines and landraces, respectively, while they ranged from 0.23 to 6.49 g and 170.0 to 240 cm in the ancient wheat species and wild wheat relatives.
Conclusions: The superior genotypes that had longer root system and high grain yield can be considered in breeding programs to improve high yielding genotypes and deep-rooted system.
