Introduction. The preliminary study of new developed pumps for circulatory support on the hydrodynamic circulation model is an important step in the process of their designing. Hydrodynamic circulation models that can closely imitate cardio – vascular system are important to defi ne the range of effective functioning of the pumps under normal and heart disease conditions which is of great importance for defi ning the mode of these pumps in real clinical conditions.The aim of study is to create a new hydrodynamic circulation model of the systemic circulation to study the processes of interaction of heart left ventricle and continuous – fl ow pumps.Materials and methods. The main components of the mock circulation model (arterial and venous blocks) are designed as closed reservoirs with an air bag providing the necessary elasticity value of these reservoirs. The heart left ventricle was simulated with an artifi cial heart ventricle with a pneumatic drive Sinus-IS which allows to change its options in a wide range. As a test pump we used the fi rst native implantable axial pump VISH – 1. In the course of research we made the registration and recording of the basic hemodynamic parameters (pressure, fl ow) with a multichannel module Pumpax for the measurement of pressure parameters.Results. The designed circulation model allows to adequately reproduce the main hemodynamic parameters of the circulatory system in normal (arterial pressure – 110/77 mmHg, left atrium pressure – 7 mmHg and cardiac output – 4.2 l/min) and heart failure conditions (arterial pressure – 79/53 mmHg, left atrium pressure – 15 mmHg and cardiac output – 3.1 l/min). On the circulation model the interaction of heart left ventricle and continuous-fl ow pump in heart failure simulation was studied. The dynamics of the main circulation fi gures is shown under conditions of changing of the pump rotor speed. Meanwhile, the conditions of the closing of aortic valve are identifi ed which is important for theclinical use of this pump. Using a special separately fl exible camera on the pump inlet we modeled phenomena of negative pressure leading to unstable pump operation and reduction of pump fl ow.Conclusion. Characteristics of the developed hydrodynamic circulation model allow us to reproduce parameters of systemic circulation in a wide range and to use it in designing of new pumps for circulatory support.

Aim:To estimate results of kidney transplantation in city clinical hospital No. 7 of Almaty.Materials and methods. 100 patients who underwent kidney transplantation in our institution were analyzed; males – 54 (54%), females – 46 (46%), aged from 14 till 58 years old (39 ± 10.3). In 91 cases hand – assisted laparoscopic nephrectomy (HALN) was performed and in 3 cases – open method (2 with mini-lumbotomic and 1 with pararectal access) was used.Results. The survival rate was 98% (98 patients). The causes of death were the nonfunctioning transplant due to noncompliance of immunosuppression, post traumatic septic complications, multiple organ failure. The most frequent complications were hematoma (12%), acute rejection (8%), and tubular necrosis (2%). Less aggressive schemes of immunosuppressive therapy allow reducing risk of drug toxic impact on the patient's organism and, thus, can extend functioning of a transplant.Conclusion.Kidney transplantation is an effective treatment method of end stage renal diseases. The use of modern immunosuppressive therapy protocols and adequate immunological selection of donor – recipient provide high survival of transplants. Operative treatment and further case management of this group of patients are possible in highly specialized medical hospital.
TRANSFORMING GROWTH FACTOR 1 AT LIVER TRANSPLANTATION
Authors: Kurabekova R. M. , Shevchenko O. P. , Tsiroulnikova O. M. 
Published: October 2015

This review summarizes the current literature devoted to the analysis of the role of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) at liver transplantation. TGF-β1 plays a key role in the development of liver fi brosis, as well as in development of the immune response; its concentration in the blood and tissue changes in liver diseases. TGF-β1 levels in the blood of the recipients are associated with the development of liver fi brosis, the formation of immune tolerance and immune response to active infection. Measuring the level of TGF-β1 at liver transplantation may have diagnostic and prognostic value for assessing the graft condition. Currently, clinical data on the role of the cytokine at liver transplantation are not accumulated enough and further research on the relation of TGF-β1 levels with different clinical and laboratory parameters in liver transplant patients is needed. The review analyzed 54 sources of literature, more than half of which were published in the last fi ve years.
COMUNICAÇÃO DE MÁS NOTÍCIAS EM PEDIATRIA: A PERSPECTIVA DO PROFISSIONAL
Authors: Gonçalves Samantha Pelichek , Forte Isabela Guimarães , Setino Juliana Aquino , Cury Patricia Maluf , Salomão Jr João Batista , Miyazaki Maria Cristina O.S. 
Published: October 2015

Introdução: A prática da medicina requer um equilíbrio entre competência técnica e competência para relacionamento interpessoal. Este estudo foca um aspecto específico do relacionamento médico-paciente: a comunicação de más notícias, ou seja, notícias que afetam de forma negativa a visão do paciente sobre o futuro, ameaçam seu bem-estar e reduzem a possibilidade de escolhas. Objetivo: Identificar estratégias utilizadas por pediatras para comunicar más notícias aos pacientes. Casuística e Métodos: Trinta pediatras do complexo FAMERP/FUNFARME responderam a um questionário sobre comunicação de más notícias. O estudo foi aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa da Faculdade de Medicina de São José do Rio Preto. Resultados: Participaram 18 mulheres e 12 homens, com idade entre 25 e 61 anos (média = 37,43 ± 12,56), trabalhando nos seguintes contextos: pronto-socorro, enfermaria, ambulatório e unidade de tratamento intensivo. Entre os participantes, 19 relataram a possibilidade de comunicar más notícias dentro da sua especialidade e 12 já haviam tido essa experiência. A maioria (n = 23) acredita que apenas parcela das informações deve ser fornecida à criança; 25 já haviam discutido diagnóstico e prognóstico com pacientes e todos já haviam fornecido explicações às crianças que seriam submetidas a procedimentos dolorosos. Conclusão: Dada a frequência com que pediatras fornecem “más notícias”, o treino em habilidades para realizar essa tarefa deve fazer parte da sua formação profissional.
Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Metabolic Disease
Authors: Meiliana Anna , Wijaya Andi 
Published: October 2015

BACKGROUND: Mitochondrial function and behavior are central to the physiology of humans and, consequently, "mitochondrial dysfunction" has been implicated in a wide range of disease.CONTENT: Mitochondrial ROS might attack various mitochondrial constituents, causing mitochondrial DNA mutations and oxidative damage to respiratory enzymes. A defect in mitochondrial respiratory enzymes would increase mitochondrial production of ROS, causing further mitochondrial damage and dysfunction. Mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with diseases, such as neurodegenerative disorders, cardiomyopathies, metabolic syndrome, obesity, and cancer. Pathways that improve mitochondrial function, attenuate mitochondrial oxidative stress, and regulate mitochondrial biogenesis have recently emerged as potential therapeutic targets.SUMMARY: Mitochondria perform diverse yet interconnected functions, produce ATP and many biosynthetic intermediates while also contribute to cellular stress responses such as autophagy and apoptosis. Mitochondria form a dynamic, interconnected network that is intimately integrated with other cellular compartments. It is therefore not suprising that mitochondrial dysfunction has emerged as a key factor in a myriad of diseases, including neurodegenerative, cancer, and metabolic disorders. Interventions that modulate processes involved in regulation of mitochondrial turnover, with calorie restriction and induction of mitochondrial biogenesis, are of particular interest.KEYWORDS: mitochondrial biogenesis, mitochondrial dysfunction, reactive oxygen species (ROS), metabolic diseases
Le royaume des Szapolyai, du royaume de Hongrie orientale à la principauté de Transylvanie (1541-1571)
Authors: Oborni Teréz 
Published: October 2015

Après la bataille de Mohács (1526), la division du Royaume de Hongrie en deux parties fut un long processus plein de conflits intérieurs. Les ordres hongrois élurent deux rois après la bataille : Jean I er Szapolyai (il régna de 1526 jusqu'à 1540) et Ferdinand I er de Habsbourg (il régna de 1527 jusqu'à 1564). La double élection royale comportait déjà la possibilité de l'éclatement du territoire du pays si l'un des deux rois ne pouvait se débarrasser de son rival. Il en résulta le traité de Várad (Nagyvárad, aujourd'hui Oradea en Roumanie) en 1538 qui le territoire du pays entre les deux rois. Les parties orientales furent déchirées lorsque l'Empire ottoman s'empara de Bude en 1541. Après de nombreux conflits et quelques intrigues diplomatiques (notamment avec la France), un compromis fut trouvé. La Principauté fut créée finalement par le traité de Spire (1570/71) conclu par Jean Sigismond II Szapolyai (il régnait de 1559 jusqu'à 1571) et Maximilien de Habsbourg (il régnait de 1564 jusqu'à 1576). Le traité réglementa les relations entre les deux parties du pays et les deux souverains. D'après le texte du traité, Jean Sigismond renonçait à son titre de roi élu ( electus rex ) et il prit à sa place le titre de prince de Transylvanie et ses parties annexes ( Princeps Transylvaniae et Partium regni Hungariae eidem annexarum ). Le traité stipula qu'au cas où le prince mourrait sans successeur mâle la Transylvanie reviendrait à la Sainte Couronne de Hongrie comme sa partie réelle et inséparable ( tanquam verum et inseparabile membrum ) sous l'autorité du roi de Hongrie.
Le passé dérouté : autour de La Vendetta de Balzac
Authors: Lyon-Caen Boris 
Published: October 2015

La Vendetta de Balzac ouvre les Scènes de la vie privée . Qu'attendre d'une nouvelle ainsi intitulée, en 1830 ? Une représentation linéaire de l'histoire, assise sur la violence la plus archaïque et sur un respect fidèle des valeurs héritées du passé ? À la faveur d'un tel horizon d'attente, l'intrigue s'ouvre en fait à une critique de la raison tragique, à une réflexion sur les aléas de la vie et sur la production de l' égarement ; elle permet au romancier de dramatiser sa passion du présent – en exaltant le présent des passions. Et devient l' arkhè d'une comédie foncièrement humaine. L'occasion, pour nous, de penser le récit et ses pliures sur le modèle – ô combien stratégique – du cheval de Troie...
Choreographing Fin'amor:
Authors: Stampone Christopher 
Published: October 2015

Abstract
This article examines the rhetorical “daunce” in Geoffrey Chaucer's epic romance Troilus and Criseyde. More specifically, this article explains that “daunce”—a term that appears a total of thirteen times and in every book of Troilus and Criseyde, and nowhere in Giovanni Boccaccio's Il Filostrato—is the predominant mode of fin' amor in the poem, casting discourse about love as a playful dance in which partners move, whirl, and spin each other with rhetoric. Understanding the love game as a rhetorical dance better explains the sometimes deeply problematic interactions of the poem's main characters—Pandarus, Criseyde, Troilus, and Diomede.
Hitchcock’s Blackmail and the Threat of Recorded Sound
Authors: McDonald Matthew 
Published: October 2015

Abstract
In his first recorded-sound film, Blackmail (1929), the degree to which Alfred Hitchcock exerted control over his sonic material—particularly the voice— indicates that he regarded the advent of recorded film sound not only as a source of new creative possibilities but also as a serious threat to his authority over sonic representation. Recognition of this underlying anxiety opens up a new critical perspective on the film and its significance.
The Gezi Park Protests as a Pluralistic “Anti-Violent” Movement
Authors: özdemİr seçkİn sertdemİr 
Published: October 2015

Abstract
a new era of public protest began in 1999 with the Seattle World Trade Organization (WTO) demonstrations, and continued through the 2011 Occupy Wall Street protests and the 2013 Gezi Park insurrection in Istanbul. This new era of demonstrations differed from movements that had come before in the understanding of politics employed by the protesters, reconstructing popular imaginations about the future, bringing about a reconsideration of politics, its domain, and time itself. This article investigates the Occupy Gezi movement that began in Gezi Park and led to the occupation of Istanbul’s Taksim Square. I examine the events through Hannah Arendt’s analysis of the Hungarian Revolution. Arendt’s five criteria for evaluating the status of the Hungarian Revolution as a “true event” help shed light on the politics of Occupy Gezi (Arendt, “Totalitarian Imperialism” 5). In spite of the two movements’ similarly unprecedented, spontaneous, non-ideological, and un-hierarchical characters, the Gezi Park protests differed from the Hungarian Revolution in important ways. This is particularly true of the reaction of the protesters to the violence to which they were exposed. In refusing to react in kind to the state’s violence, the Gezi Park protesters created a new public domain for confronting the state. It is possible to consider this movement to have been an anti-violent rather than a non- or counter-violent resistance. Important political conclusions follow from this distinction.
The Possibility of Religious Insight
Authors: Kaag John Jacob , Shepherd Aaron Pratt 
Published: October 2015

Abstract
Josiah Royce’s philosophical interest in religion can be traced to his earliest days, when hymn singing and reading the Bible were constant practices in the fervently evangelical household of Josiah, Sr., and Sarah Royce in Grass Valley, California.1 Royce’s mother, Sarah, in particular, was a profound influence. She burned with the Holy Spirit, sparked by the fire-and-brimstone revivalism of the Second Great Awakening in New England, where she grew up. Educated at Phipps Union Female Seminary in Albion, New York, Mrs. Royce treasured the scriptures, and was an elegant and thorough interpreter of them for Josiah and his three sisters.
The Categorial Logic of Peirce’s Metaphysical Cosmogony
Authors: Guardiano Nicholas Lee 
Published: October 2015

Abstract
In this paper, I present a detailed interpretation of Peirce’s cosmogony about the origin of the universe and its evolutionary development. This involves bringing together and making sense of Peirce’s disconnected statements on cosmology, which are scattered throughout his writings and which sometimes employ different terminologies. Furthermore, it shall involve identifying the categories of firstness, secondness, and thirdness that govern its conceptual structure, and ultimately the metaphysical structure of the universe to which it refers. Attending to the categories at play here reveals the basic “logic” of Peirce’s theory from which its rational coherence is discernable. As such, it may be argued that given the inherent logic of his position, Peirce’s theory amounts to a reasonable abduction, as well as one that possesses some unique theoretical merits in comparison to other alternative cosmogonies that have been proposed in the history of philosophy and modern astronomy.
A vida, a obra, o que falta, o que sobra: memorial acadêmico, direitos e obrigações da escrita
Authors: Silva Wilton C. L. da 
Published: October 2015

O memorial acadêmico é uma narrativa pessoal do percurso de formação intelectual e profissional de um docente universitário, exigido em concursos públicos para a progressão de carreira. Forma de escrita de si, condicionada por uma tradição institucional, agrega, a partir da década de 80, uma carga maior de subjetivação e oferece-se como objeto privilegiado de análise da escrita autobiográfica, pois nela se mesclam a trajetória pessoal e a intelectual, em um dos raros momentos em que se apresenta como legítima a fala do acadêmico sobre si mesmo. A partir da análise de três memoriais acadêmicos de professores da Faculdade de Filosofia, Letras e Ciências Humanas da Universidade de São Paulo, de Paulo Argemiro da Silveira Filho, Heloísa Fernandes e Scarlett Marton, apresentados em concursos públicos em 1991, 1992 e 2003, respectivamente, busca-se discutir algumas particularidades desse gênero narrativo enquanto fonte de pesquisa. Palavras-chave: Professores Universitários - Concursos; Autobiografia; Memória Autobiográfica.
In Search of Fairness: Critical Design Alternatives for Sustainability

Published: October 2015

<div class="page" title="Page 1"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p><span>Does fairness as an ideal fit within the broader quest for sustainability? In this paper we consider alternative ways of framing the wicked problem of sustainability. One that moves away from the established preference within HCI, towards technological quick-fixes. We adopt a critical lens to challenge the belief that by merely changing practices at an individual level one can do away with unsustainability. This thinking, we argue, is flawed for many reasons, but mostly because of the wickedness of the sustainability problem. By analyzing the case of Fairphone, we illustrate how it is possible to imagine and design change at a broader level of community engagement, when it comes to concerns of fairness and sustainability. We contribute to a deeper understanding of how social value laden enterprises along with open technological design can shape sustainable relationships between our environment and us. </span></p></div></div></div>
Gaza Everywhere: exploring the applicability of a rhetorical lens in HCI

<div class="page" title="Page 1"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p><span>By examining application software as a type of rhetorical artifact, it is possible to highlight its social, ethical and moral implications.

Our analysis allows us to outline the elements of a user-centric persuasive experience and shows promise for further explorations regarding the applicability of rhetoric in HCI. </span></p></div></div></div>
