description: A phytochemical investigation of the ethanolic extracts of the dried roots of Euphorbia nematocypha resulted in the isolation of a new phenylpropanoid, 16-O-caffeoyl-16-hydroxylhexadecanoic acid (1), together with 23 known compounds (2–24). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data. Compound 1 was first to be isolated as a caffeic acyl long chain alkyl acid from the family Euphorbiaceae. The new isolated phenylpropanoid showed potent cytotoxic activities against the MCF-7 and HeLa cell lines.

description: Estas páginas pretenden ser una crónica bibliográfica, en la que señalo, describo y —cuando se da el caso— critico sucintamente las publicaciones, llegadas a mi conocimiento, que tratan, sea ex profeso, sea indirectamente, de san Pedro Crisólogo o de sus sermones. Omito únicamente algunos trabajos que sólo se refieren muy accidentalmente a nuestro tema y que, por esta misma razón, carecen de interés en este lugar.

description: Specific enzymes have demonstrated an ability to increase the possibilities for extracting wood polymers. Enzymatic treatment requires an open wood structure, which was achieved by extended impregnation of the wood. However, lignin and some of the hemicelluloses, primarily glucomannan, were lost during the impregnation. To improve the carbohydrate yield, three glucomannan modification agents—sodium borohydride, polysulphide, and anthraquinone—were used, which increased the yields of the impregnated materials from 76.6% to 89.6%, 80.0%, and 81.3%, respectively. Through the use of additives, most of the glucomannan could be retained in the wood while still allowing the enzymes to penetrate the wood and attack the polymers. The additives also increased the extraction yield from 9 to 12% w/w wood. Gamanase treatment prior to the extraction increased the extraction yield to 14%. Of the three stabilizing agents, sodium borohydride was the most efficient, providing the highest extraction yields.
Ordo ad visitandum infirmum do Pontifical de Braga do séc. XIII
Creators: name: Bragança, Joaquim De Oliveira
Publisher: name: Didaskalia
Year: 1981

description: Le témoin le plus ancien que nous connaissions de l' onction des malades selon la tradition liturgique de Braga est celui du Cod. alc. 162 de la B. N. de Lisbonne, pontifical organisé sur place au début du XIIème siècle. Il ressemble pourtant de très près à l' ordo ad visitanium infirmum fratrem du ms. 843 de la Bibl. Munic. de Porto, rituel en usage chez les chanoines réguliers de Santa Cruz de Coimbra. Dès lors se pose le problême concernant les rapports entre ces deux traditions: l' ordo de Braga dépend-il de celui de Coimbra ou bien d' une source commune? Les livres liturgiques de Santa Cruz de Coimbra, les plus anciens tout au moins, proviennent de St. Ruf d' Avignon; de même toutes les sources connues de Braga se rapportent au Midi de la France. Aussi la question peut-elle se formuler de façon plus précise: l' ordo de Braga est-il parvenu au Portugal via St. Ruf d' Avignon, ou bien directement de France sous l' influence de Cluny? C' est cette dernière hypothèse qu' il faudra retenir.

description: Reconhece-se geralmente que Is 42,5-9 é uma unidade literária, embora se continue a discutir a interpretação. Do texto depreende-se claramente que quem fala é Javé e que no v. 6 se dá uma espécie de vocação. Mas não se vê com clareza quem é o chamado ou a quem se dirige a sua missão. Estará em causa o próprio Isaías? Ou teremos a vocação de Ciro? Será porventura o povo de Israel o chamado? Ou será o Servo de Javé? Que significa «aliança do povo» e «luz dos pagãos»?

description: Electroporation is a common tool for gene transfection, tumour ablation, sterilization and drug delivery. Using experimental methods, we explore the temperature dependence of electropore formation in a model membrane system (droplet-interface bilayers), using optical single-channel recording to image the real-time gating of individual electropores. We investigate the influence of the agarose substrate on electropores formed in this system. Furthermore, by examining the temperature-dependent kinetics of pore opening and closure we are able to estimate a barrier to pore opening in 1,2-diphytanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPhPC) membranes to be 25.0 ± 8.3 kBT, in agreement with previous predictions. Overall these measurements help support the toroidal model of membrane electroporation.This article is part of the themed issue ‘Membrane pores: from structure and assembly, to medicine and technology’.

description: Arnicolide B and arnicolide C are two sesquiterpene lactones isolated and identified from Centipeda minima, but the anti-inflammatory effects and mechanisms of these two compounds have not been reported. In this study, LPS was used to establish RAW 264.7 macrophages inflammatory response model. Griess, ELISA, Western blot were used to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects in vitro and the molecular mechanisms of these two active compounds. The results showed that arnicolide B and arnicolide C could not only inhibit the production of inflammatory mediators NO, PGE2, TNF-α and IL-6, but also down-regulate the high expression of inflammatory proteins iNOS and COX-2. Furthermore, arnicolide B and arnicolide C inhibited the phosphorylation of ERK, JNK, p38 proteins in the MAPK signaling pathway, but had no effect on the degradation of IκB-α protein and the activation of the NF-κB pathway. As conclusion, these two compounds exert anti-inflammatory effects by inactivation of the MAPK pathway.

A piety of the enlightenment: the spirituality of truth of Teodoro de Almeida
Creators: name: Azevedo, Fernando
Publisher: name: Didaskalia
Year: 1975

description: Dans cette étude, l'A. nous présente un savant du 18ème siècle portugais, Teodoro de Almeida, prêtre de l'Oratoire (1722-1804), auteur de nombreux livres de spiritualité. Teodoro de Almeida a, d'après l'A., structuré une spiritualité éclectique comme sa philosophie. Il a voulu harmoniser christianisme et philosophie des lumières. Il a subi tout d'abord l'influence des fondateurs de l'Oratoire portugais, notamment de Bartholomeu de Quental, préoccupé de réformer la vie chrétienne; celle encore du plus célèbre Manuel Bernardes; aussi bien ses premiers écrits ont-ils reflété leur «aimer et souffrir», «padecer e amar». L'A. suspecte aussi l'influence de l'Oratoire français, notamment du cardinal de Bérulle; celle du capucin Ambroise de Lombez est plus certaine, puisqu'il fut le directeur spirituel de Almeida pendant son exil en France, sous le régime Pombal, et puisque T. de Almeida a traduit en portugais deux livres de lui, notamment un sur la joie. Puis l'auteur nous présente successivemente l'éloge laissé par Almeida d'une jeune fille, sa dirigée, morte en 1756 à l'âge de 18 ans, Anna de Mascarenhas; et deux livres sur Marie: Estímulos de Amor et Gemidos da Mãi de Deos aflicta. Tous deux insistent sur la compassion envers Marie au pied de la Croix. D'après l'A., Almeida, dans ces deux livres, développerait une spiritualité de la vérité, soucieuse de l'âme de l'homme; son insistance sur le coeur ne viserait pas réellement l'affectivité humaine, mais la raison. Ces deux livres furent publiés en 1759 et 1763. En 1765, il publiait un «Tezoiro de paciencia», oeuvre en quelque manière prophétique, précédant de peu son exil. La religion y devient une source de connaissance pour les vivants. Peu après son retour d'exil, il livrait son roman spirituel O feliz (1779), dédié au Christ crucifié; cet ouvrage est une formulation complète de sa piété, tout comme une description de la vie héroïque demandée par la vertu, inspirée de l'exemple de Fénelon dans ses Aventures de Télémaque. Ce roman constitue la mieux construite des oeuvres littéraires de Almeida. Pour l'A., la principale limite de la spiritualité d'Almeida a été de ne pas savoir dépasser dans une perspective chrétienne de rédemption l'aspect expiateur de la souffrance. Elle est trop austère. Cependant Almeida a relevé le défi culturel de son temps par une affectivité raisonnée qui nous manifeste les aspirations de ses contemporains, leur soif d'une spiritualité de la vérité.

Bringing the History Back into Social and Political Sciences

Year: 2022

description: This contribution is based on four assumptions: 1) the social and political sciences should rebuild a systematic relationship with history, 2) this is urgent if we want to give depth to the analysis of new phenomena on a global scale that have characterized this long decade following the Great Recession, 3) sociology and political science need to build research of a comparative nature that will stand the test of time, 4) the crisis of democracies is the unifying topic that today requires a comparison between the crisis of American democracy with the crises of European democracies. This, however, can be done realistically only by understanding the historical uniqueness that characterizes each political system.

Joie et bonheur du chrétien d'après Saint Augustin

Publisher: name: Didaskalia
Year: 1975

description: On a souvent reproché à Saint Augustin son pessimisme. Et il est vrai qu'une lecture hâtive de son oeuvre peut confirmer cette impression: l'homme n'y a pas grand crédit. Très sensible à la présence du péché au coeur de la création, l'Evêque d'Hippone s'attache davantage à souligner les misères du monde qu'à en déceler les grandeurs. Et pourtant il ne faut pas croire que l'homme soit par lui humilié. Sous la grâce de Dieu le voilà au contraire restauré, grandi, et comme élargi. Alors la pesanteur devient légèreté, l'égoïsme amour, et la tristesse se change en joie.

description: I examine teenage pregnancy in Ghana, focusing on the role and interplay of Ghanaian and English reading skills, formal educational attainment, and adult literacy programme participation. Pursuing several alternative identification strategies three main results are established. First, I confirm the finding from previous studies that educational attainment is negatively related to teenage pregnancy. Second, however, once Ghanaian and English reading skills are introduced, the association between educational attainment and teenage pregnancy decreases or disappears altogether. Third, for the girls who have not completed primary school, adult literacy programme participation is associated with a much lower probability of experiencing a teenage pregnancy. A bright future is the best contraceptive. –Marian Wright Edelman
Representations of Citizens/hip in 230 Years of American History. A Diachronic Corpus-assisted Approach

description: The paper examines how American presidents have discursively constructed citizens (and citizenship) over more than two hundred years of American political history from an interdisciplinary perspective. As one deeply contested concept in different political arenas (Wiesner et al 2017), involving aspects of collective identities, citizens/hip has been at the very heart of Western democracies since ancient times, although its significance has gradually increased in modern periods (Marshall 1950, Bayley et al. 2013).

The ‘Second Wave’ of Political Time Scholarship. And, Beyond!
Creators: name: Nichols, Curt
Publisher: name: USAbroad – Journal of American History and Politics
Year: 2022

description: This essay is structured around a review of the ‘second wave’ of scholarship extending Stephen Skowronek’s presidentially centered political time theory. It introduces this theory, which is arguably the most prominent account of American long cycles being studied by Political Scientists today. Then it highlights how acolytes are making progress applying political time theory in the Comparative Politics, Public Law, and Americanist / Presidency fields. Finally, the essay turns to bring original thought to questions of interest to all students of historical cycles. Namely, it considers the nature of political time and the drivers that cause the cycle to turn.

Elle devrait donner le témoignage d'une confiance résolue dans les pouvoirs de l'esprit humain, et, en même temps, de cette simplicité du coeur qui se croit à la fois assez démuni et assez fort pour oser s'abandonner à toute l'amplitude de l'espérance. Elle devrait allier la patience d'une recherche rigoureuse, qui sait fort bien qu'elle ne peut procéder que pas à pas et que toute démarche reste toujours conjecturale, à l'envergure d'une vision qui sait regarder au-delà des cloisonnements méthodologiques et du particularisme des théories, pour s'accorder à l'immense mouvement qui attire l'être humain, et le cosmos avec lui, sans cesse en avant d'eux-mêmes. Elle devrait contribuer, pour sa part, selon ses moyens, à faire avancer le travail de la raison, et à construire les instruments de la liberté, mais en se gardant de toute ombre de prétention.

Year: 2022

description: Since the founding of the Northern colonies and the creation of the United States, conservative Christianity’s involvement in the political realm has followed cycles of activity and subsequent retreat into passivity. Donald Trump’s presidency, and the support he gathered from major religious right’s organizations as well as conservative Christian voters, represent the latest of such cycles of involvement and withdrawal. But if his defeat signaled the end of yet another participation cycle for the movement, Trump’s figure managed nonetheless to usher in the white Christian nationalist revival some his voters were longing for.

description: Objective: We aimed to identify and analyze the characteristics of the 100 most highly-cited papers in the research field of deep brain stimulation (DBS). Methods: The Web of Science was searched for highly-cited papers related to DBS research. The number of citations, countries, institutions of origin, year of publication, and research area were noted and analyzed. Results: The 100 most highly-cited articles had a mean of 304.15 citations. These accrued an average of 25.39 citations a year. The most represented target by far was the subthalamic nucleus (STN). These articles were published in 46 high-impact journals, with Brain (n = 10) topping the list. These articles came from 11 countries, with the USA contributing the most highly-cited articles (n = 29); however, it was the University of Toronto (n = 13) in Canada that was the institution with the most highly-cited studies. Conclusions: This study identified the 100 most highly-cited studies and highlighted a historical perspective on the progress in the field of DBS. These findings allow for the recognition of the most influential reports and provide useful information that can indicate areas requiring further investigation.

description: Distributive politics and spatial equity: the allocation of public investment in Chile. Regional Studies. This paper analyzes the influence of electoral concerns on investment distribution from the central government to Chilean municipalities. Drawing upon panel data, it shows that investment is mediated by pork-barrel and political budget cycles, as well as favouring the relatively better-off areas. Estimations also reveal that resources are channelled to the municipalities where the vote margin in local elections is larger, whereas national results are not relevant, indicating that local governments’ lobbying capacity is prioritized over national electoral interests. Based on these results, the implications for regional governance and for reducing the margin of arbitrary allocations are discussed.

description: Early post-settlement mortality is difficult to measure in mobile benthic taxa such as mussels. Field studies typically employ settlement collectors that often contain empty shells of dead individuals, which are usually disregarded. Here, empty shells of pediveligers, i.e. recent settlers that died before beginning to grow as juveniles, were used to assess temporal and spatial patterns of early mortality in mussels, whether size at settlement determined mortality, and whether mortality was density-dependent. This study took place at two intertidal sites in a large harbour in central New Zealand where monthly cohorts of mussels were collected over a 2-year period. Monthly mortality varied substantially, ranging from 0% to 42.6%, but not across the two sites that were 27 km apart. Although there was no density-dependent mortality evident within cohorts, the proportion of pediveligers which were dead on collection was highly positively correlated across sites. Live settlers were on average larger than dead settlers, and the size distribution of dead settlers was shifted toward smaller sizes compared to live settlers. At the extremes, of all settlers with shell length of 260 µm or less, 72% were dead on collection. By contrast, for settlers 310 µm or greater in length, 6% were dead. Together, these results (1) suggest that in this system size at settlement may be an important determinant of very early, peri-metamorphic mortality in mussels, with smaller settlers at higher risk, and (2) demonstrate the value in evaluating dead pediveligers for assessing natural early post-settlement mortality in mussels.

description: Mangosteen fruit is fermented with five different strains (i.e. GRE (Y1), Lalvin RC212 (Y2), Lalvin D254 (Y3), CGMCC2.23 (Y4) and CGMCC2.4 (Y5)) of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae to make mangosteen wines. A total of 36 volatile compounds of the mangosteen wines were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-pulsed flame photometric detection. A total of 35 odour-active compounds were identified by gas chromatography-olfactometry analysis and by the detection frequency (DF) method. The compounds with high DF values included ethyl octanoate, ethyl hexanoate and 3-methyl-2-butene-1-thiol. Principal component analysis was used to characterise the differences of the flavour profiles of those mangosteen wines. The result demonstrated that the samples could be divided into three groups that were associated closely with aroma-active compounds.

Mito e desmitização em Gn 1

description: It has been recognized and accepted for a long time that the Priestly description of creation incorporates mythical elements. Recountings ot the origin of the world and of creation are found not only in the advanced cultures of Egypt and Mesopotamia but also in the so-called primitive cultures. Stories about the beginning of the world may be found in every corner of the earth. For this reason, neither the Babylonian nor any other culture may be said to have had exclusive influence in the narrative of Gen 1. We know also of the artistic privilege exercized by the biblical poets in availing themselves of mythical concepts, in contrast to the reserve of the Priestly writer. P demythises intentionally and with particular emphasis two points: plants and stars. After Hosea, it was in the last years of the monarchy and during the exile that the rites of fertility were attacked (Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Deuteronomist). The cult of the stars is ignored by the ancient writers, but is severely criticized by these authors, as well as in Deutero-Isaiah.

description: Mahuang Fuzi Xixin (MFX), a classic recipe in traditional Chinese medicine, belongs to an exterior-relieving formula. For quality control of the MFX products, qualitative analysis using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with diode-array detector–tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-PDA–MS/MS) was undertaken. Six compounds from the MFX were simultaneously detected. Among them, astragalin and kaempferol 3-rutinoside were quantified through the UPLC–MS/MS method, while asarinin, sesamin, kakuol and methyleugenol were quantified through the UPLC-PDA method. This method can be applied to the quantitative determination of the six compounds in the MFX.

description: The formation of insulin amyloid can dramatically impact glycemic control in patients with diabetes, making it an important therapeutic consideration. In addition, the cost associated with the excess insulin required by patients with amyloid is estimated to be $3K per patient per year, which adds to the growing financial burden of this disease. Insulin amyloid has been observed with every mode of therapeutic insulin administration (infusion, injection and inhalation), and the number of reported cases has increased significantly since 2002. The new cases represent a much broader demographic, and include many patients who have used exclusively human insulin and human insulin analogs. The reason for the increase in case reports is unknown, but this review explores the possibility that changes in patient care, improved differential diagnosis and/or changes in insulin type and insulin delivery systems may be important factors. The goal of this review is to raise key questions that will inspire proactive measures to prevent, identify and treat insulin amyloid. Furthermore, this comprehensive examination of insulin amyloid can provide insight into important considerations for other injectable drugs that are prone to form amyloid deposits.

description: The growth and variability of regional taxes: an application to Italy. Regional Studies. This paper investigates the potential long-term growth and short-term cyclical stability of the Italian regional tax system. Short- and long-run elasticities with respect to regional gross domestic product (GDP) are estimated between 2001 and 2012 for the surtax on central personal income tax (RPIT) and for the regional tax on productive activities (RTPA). Cyclical reactions are more marked for the RTPA and higher in the southern regions. Significant long-run growth of the RPIT and RTPA, on the other hand, is found only in the northern regions. The results suggest that the behaviour of regional taxes may increase the Italian north–south gap and cast some doubt on these taxes in financing essential public services, such as health, in each region.

description: Dracocephalum kotschyi essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation (HD), microwave-assisted hydrodistillation (MAHD), and solvent-free microwave extraction (SFME) were investigated by GC-FID (Gas Chromatography-Flame Ionization Detector) and GC-MS (Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry). The percentage of oxygenated compounds was significantly increased from 62.52% in HD to 76.47% in MAHD, and 84.52% in SFME. Conversely, the monoterpene hydrocarbons were decreased from 30.84% in HD to 13.71% in MAHD, and 5.85% in SFME. The main compound in the essential oil obtained by HD is limonene, which accounted for more than 30% of the oil, while the percentage of this compound was reduced to 9.52% in MAHD, and 5.60% in SFME. The percents of other oxygenated compounds such as neral, geranial, geraniol, geranyl acetate, α-terpineol, trans-verbenol, carvon, and trans-carveol were noticeably higher in microwave methods than those present in HD method. In aqueous medium, linear oxygenated monoterpenes may be converted to a monocyclic terpinyl cation, which it could lose a proton to give limonene. The main biosynthetic pathway of these compounds, as well as a possible route of their conversion into limonene, due to prolonged heating in the HD method, was proposed. The antimicrobial activity of D. kotschyi essential oils against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria was evaluated by broth micro-dilution susceptibility manner. The most sensitive bacteria to these oils was found to be S. aureus with the lowest minimum inhibitory concentration value of 2 mg mL−1 for MAHD and SFME specimens. The results indicated that oils obtained by microwave methods were more active against S. aureus.
