Актуальність. Відмінність між м’яким (F1–2) і розвинутим фіброзом (F3–4), як і відсутність фіброзу у хворих на неалкогольну жирову хворобу печінки (НАЖХП), є важливим питанням для з’ясування прогнозу. Сироваткові маркери були запропоновані як альтернатива біопсії. Мета: розробити нову модель для визначення стадії фіброзу на основі більш ефективної комбінації серологічних маркерів та порівняння її з встановленими алгоритмами. Матеріали та методи. У дослідження включені 60 пацієнтів із НАЖХП, які проходили обстеження і лікування у відділенні захворювань печінки та підшлункової залози ДУ «Інститут гастроентерології НАМН України». Серед досліджених 26 (42,3 %) чоловіків та 34 (56,7 %) жінки, середній вік яких (37,1 ± 12,4) та (44,3 ± 7,3) року відповідно. Всім пацієнтам була проведена черезшкірна пункційна трепан-біопсія печінки з подальшим морфологічним дослідженням пунктату; виконано визначення вмісту гіалуронової кислоти, α2-макроглобуліну, аполіпопротеїну А1, фібронектину, гаптоглобіну в сироватці крові та був проведений розрахунок неінвазивних маркерів фіброзу печінки: AAR, APRI, FIB-4. Результати. Проведений ROC-аналіз показав, що найбільші показники площі під AUROC-кривою були для індексу FIB-4 для F2 — 0,72, F3 — 0,8, F4 — 0,82 при р < 0,05. Результати індексу APRI були вірогідно високими для помірного та вираженого фіброзу (F2 — 0,74, F3 — 0,82, р < 0,05). А показники AAR були вірогідними лише для цирозу печінки (площа під AUROC-кривою 0,89, р < 0,05). Установлено сильний прямий зв’язок між стадією фіброзу та рівнем гіалуронової кислоти, α2-макроглобуліну і фібронектину (r = 0,72, 0,93 та 0,71 відповідно при р < 0,05) та обернений зв’язок помірної сили між показниками аполіпопротеїну А1, гаптоглобіну (r = –0,61 і –0,35 при р < 0,05). Визначено прямий зв’язок помірної сили між ступенем активності запального процесу і показниками гіалуронової кислоти, α2-макроглобуліну і фібронектину (r = 0,54, 0,67 та 0,55 при р < 0,05) і обернений помірний зв’язок — аполіпопротеїну А1 та гаптоглобіну (r = –0,56 і –0,33 при р < 0,05). Висновки. Установлено, що найбільшу діагностичну цінність із неінвазивних маркерів фіброзу мають показники α2-макроглобуліну, аполіпопротеїну А1, гіалуронової кислоти та фібронектину, для яких площа під AUROC-кривою для мінімального фіброзу не була нижчою ніж 0,75, а для помірного, вираженого фіброзу та цирозу становила більше 0,9.
Función de Producción de la ganadería de carne en la zona Sur del Estado de México
Authors: Morales-Hernández José Luis , González-Razo Felipe de Jesús , Hernández Martínez Juvencio 
Published: December 2017

Se estimó durante 2014-2015 una función de producción que relaciona la cantidad total de carne producida, a partir del pastizal natural, del total de animales y gasto de alimento; esto en 117 pequeñas y medianas empresas (Pymes) ganaderas de cuatro municipios del sur Estado de México, que sirvieron de base para estimar la función de producción Cobb Douglas, cuya información se analizó por mínimos cuadrados. Esta función de producción midió la eficiencia del recurso, en tres estratos: pequeños, medianos y grandes productores bajo el concepto de Pymes ganaderas. Así para las Pymes de los estratos I, con 2.6 a 26.5 ha y II, con 28 a 94 ha, al aumentar los factores de la producción en una proporción determinada, la producción crece menos que proporcionalmente los insumos. El estrato de Pymes III con 113 a 424 ha, mostró que al incrementar los factores en una determinada proporción la producción de carne crecerá a una mayor proporción. No se necesita aumentar la cantidad de alimento ni la superficie de pastizal para incrementar la cantidad total de carne, pero sí el número de animales. Los costos de oportunidad familiares y el precio de la carne son factores que otorgan ganancias al productor y le permiten mantenerse en el mercado de carne en el centro del país.
Genetic diversity analysis of the Mexican Lidia bovine breed population and its relation with the Spanish population by using a subset of SNPs under low gametic disequilibrium

Published: December 2017

Retaining features of the auroch (Bos taurus primigenius), the Lidia bovine is a primitive breed originated ~250 yr ago in the Iberian Peninsula, where is still distributed, along with France and several American countries. Selected upon a behavior, which enhances their aggressiveness; these bovines were raised to participate in popular festivities that nowadays reinforce the identity of regional cultures. Different festivities demanded diverse behavior patterns, prompting a fragmentation of the breed into small lineages. In Mexico, where these bovines reached high popularity, mainly two families of breeders imported Lidia bovines from Spain in the early XX century specializing their production either reproducing the new arrivals among them or realizing systematic crosses with local populations. Genetic diversity and structure of the Mexican and Spanish Lidia populations has been assessed with microsatellite data, but nowadays SNP molecular markers allows higher resolution level. Genetic diversity of the Mexican and Spanish Lidia populations and their relationship were assessed by using 573 SNPs with a low gametic disequilibrium (r2<0.01) from the 50K BeadChip on 468 individuals from both populations. In both populations, similar gene diversity values were observed. Significant FIS values in both populations means strong subdivision, higher FST genetic distances were observed in the Spanish than in the Mexican population. Genetic structure analysis showed similarity of three Spanish lineages with González family and some Llaguno breeders, but most Llaguno family clustered separated: genetic differentiation along with high gene diversity suggest an introgression of creole cattle in the constitution of the Mexican population.

Published: December 2017

The museum of Prabu Geusan Ulun Sumedang has been in existence since 1950. How- ever, its existence has not been recognized widely among members of society, including among Sumedang community. To solve the problem, it is important to do some e?orts for improving the a#raction of the museum by increasing its functions, not only as a place of storing ancient objects, but also as a tourist destination for history and cultural educations. To obtain this goal, a qualitative research has been conducted, in which its collecting data was undertaken directly in the ?eld by observations, interviews, and documentation with a digital camera. From the research, it can be concluded that improving the functions of the Prabu Geusan Ulun museum as a tourist atraction is need to be done by developing the supporting system of the museum. These include providing several media such as booklets and website, making labels for the museum objects, and developing museum activities. All of these activities lead to the ability of the museum as a tourist destination of history and culture educations. Keywords: Prabu Geusan Ulun museum, educational tourism, history, and culture

AbstractBags for students, especially for preschool-aged children have an important role, namely as learning media in the field of education. Attractive and innovative bag designs are highly required to make acceptable and favorable bags for children. This research uses quantitative method. Design and development of educational bags for preschool-aged children were done through the early stages of planning (mind mapping) and of concept development (determining needs identification). The concept development process began with the dissemination of 30 questionnaires to preschool-aged children to identify the consumers’ need for the bags. From the development process, there were three primary needs and 14 target specifications which were then linked in 8 matrices in the chart of a needs-metrics matrix. This research resulted in educational bag designs for preschool-aged children based on need matrix. Keywords: bags, product design, ergonomics, innovation, primary needs, target specification, need matrix.

Feliks Badowski, Z Warszawy do Wrocławia przez puszczę – relacja powstańca warszawskiego
Authors: Pęcherz Maciej 
Published: December 2017

Feliks Badowski (born on 17th May 1923 in Warsaw) was a soldier who fought in ZWZ-AK (Union of Armed Struggle-Home Army). His account concerns his education and work, war experiences and life after the war.
This witness describes in great detail his work in industry in occupied Warsaw and his struggle for independence in the frames of ZWZ-AK. He also mentions his studies within Towarzystwo Kursów Technicznych
(Technical Courses Association). A vast part of the narrative is devoted to Feliks Badowski’s participation in the Warsaw Uprising – he tells us, amongst others, about preparations for armed resistance against the occupier, how the army units were organized in the first days of fighting, and about the attack on the citadel.
A lot of focus is given to partisan activity in Kampinos Forest – the witness explains, for example, the structure of partisan forces, their help for the fighting Warsaw, sabotage actions and how they received deliveries by airdrops. This account gives us also some insight into the way the inhabitants of villages and towns near Warsaw perceived the Warsaw Uprising. Also, it relates the marching-out of partisan units and their way towards the Świętokrzyskie mountains, during which – near Żyrardów – they were defeated by Germans. A separate part of the narrative is devoted to reminiscences from post-war Wrocław – Feliks Badowski explains why he came to the Lower Silesia and pictures relations in his new place of work – Pafawag (Państwowa Fabryka Wagonów – National Rail Carriage Factory).
O relacjach byłych więźniów kacetów w kontekście czasu, miejsca i sytuacji ich powstania (albo o pożytkach z historii mówionej)
Authors: Filipkowski Piotr 
Published: December 2017

One of the main objections against oral history interviews is their retrospective character – the distance from the time of events which are covered by the interviews. While it is not the distance itself that is the issue but its deforming potential: the susceptibility of memory to later, in relation to the discussed events, influences. Another issue is the influence of an interview situation itself, relation between the person documenting interview / the researcher and the so-called witness to history.
The text starts with those theoretical and methodological questions and considers them on the example of concrete, empirical material. The material is the so-called representations of former Auschwitz prisoners gathered through decades by the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum as well as biographic and narrative interviews with the same people recorded in years 2002–2003 for the Mauthausen Survivors Documentation Project and archived in the Oral History Archive of the Karta Center and the History Meeting House.
Thorough comparison of both accounts from the same person delivered orally at a different time, place and in a different context (biographic, social, historical) conducted by different institutions and on the basis of different methodologies allows one to analyze the influence of different contexts on the content of the stories told. The effect of those analyses is a new picture of dependencies between the memory of experience of there and then and the entanglement of stories of this experience with the here and now reality. This picture seems quite distant both from naive realism as well as – although today it may seem quite surprising – from extreme constructivism. Analyzed accounts prove to be quite stable and resistant to the lapse of time as well as the current context of an interview situation. In this last regard, on the basis of analyzed sources, one can formulate some methodological postulates related to its impact.
„Słuchajcie, co wam teraz powiem…”, Obsługiwałem angielskiego króla Bohumila Hrabala – fikcja literacka a „historia opowiadana”
Authors: Uczkiewicz-Styś Katarzyna 
Published: December 2017

Oral history accounts area natural object of research for anthropologists, sociologists, researchers of cultural studies, ethnologists, as well as psychologists engaged in memory studies. As narratives of experience they became the antipositivist rebellion against the monopoly of major historical narratives that, according to the reflection of the second half of the 20th century, were supposed to lead to the catastrophes of war and genocide.
In historiographic research the questioned positivist discourse based on the corresponding theory of the truth has become counterbalanced by the discourse of memory. As a consequence, also in historical research there is noticeable appreciation for other, non-classic, forms of historical narratives which include oral history accounts.
What can a researcher of literary fiction contribute to reflections on oral history whose greatest value should be authenticity, this “truth of experience”? To what extent can literary texts in the convention of a narrative of appeal, first-person narrative, monologue (in which crucial roles are played by dialogue, orality and rhetoric of the text) be read in the perspective of oral history?
When analyzing I Served the King of England novel by Bohumil Hrabal – author who by default rejects ‘the macrocosm’, the world of great politics, historical necessities, social processes, for the world of microcosm, i.e. a life of each person and what is more, he rejects any need for psychological or sociological (or any other) analysis of this microcosm – one can notice that the dichotomy of literary fiction and the authentic experience of oral history is not that obvious as it may seem. Categories of text, narration and memory, although analyzed from different research perspectives, are common for both forms.
Wangel Durlow, Z Grecji do Polski
Authors: Kurpiel Anna 
Published: December 2017

Wangel Durlow is one of 7.5 thousand Aegean Macedonians that came to Poland as a result of the Greek civil war. In his narration he mostly recounts events related to the war and mandatory resettlement from his hometown in Northern Greece seen from the child’s perspective – Mr. Durlow was 12 when he left Greece. His account provides us with information on daily life and customs of the Macedonians living in Greece, difficult beginning of his stay in Poland resulting from cultural and civilization differences between Poland and Greece as well as education and upbringing of Greek children in Poland.
Despite pleas of his parents, who settled in Yugoslavia after the Greek civil war, he has not decided to leave Poland where he graduated from school and married a Polish woman.
There is a long description of the first meeting with his parents which took place only after 16 years of separation. The account of travels to Yugoslavia again emphasizes cultural differences between Poland Macedonia, especially the relation of the wife of Mr. Durlow with his parents.
In spite of the fact that the story of Wangel Durlow touches upon difficult and sometimes traumatic matters, he is recounting it with a sense of humor and has perspective towards it; he is emphasizing the influence of kind-hearted people – Polish teachers, his parents-in-law, who many times helped him to handle unfamiliar Polish reality.
Czeska oral history w perspektywie globalnej. Podobieństwa i różnice
Authors: Vaněk Miroslav 
Published: December 2017

The article aims to highlight the specific route of Czech oral history in comparison with developed countries, where oral history has been an age-old tradition. Czech oral history, same as oral history in other so called post-communist countries, did not experience that with oral history in 1960s and 1970s, oral history was totally unknown in the then Czechoslovakia (as well as in other countries of the so called socialist block). In the Czech Republic, oral history was used in the mid-1990s for the first time; but it took much more time before it stopped being ignored and criticized. Boom of oral history started in the end of 1990s, same like in South America or South Africa, and of course at the post-communist countries.
An increased interest in oral history, however, also brings along some problems and risks related with this new trend. I will examine some cases of journalistic work which passes itself off as oral history and which is often ideologically motivated. Mastering the method and a good knowledge of the historical context are, in my opinion, essential requirements for a valid historical interpretation, and lack of these can be crucial.

This paper is presented as a tribute to prof. Richard Mattessich. It is written “through the eyes” of a researcher who has worked closely with him over a period of 42 years, starting attending his courses of “Income Determination Theory” and “Research Methodology” at the University of British Columbia in 1975. Among his huge scientific research and publications, I intend to underline these three major contributions: (i) Accounting metrics and other mathematical instruments which anticipated computer spreadsheet by 30 years; (ii). The preparation of accountants for information economics by means of analytical methods; and (iii) The proposition of the “onion model of reality” to distinguish different Kind of reality.
