Die Wenslikheid van Afrikaans as Vaktaal vir Regstudent

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Since 1994 the official language status in South Africa went from two state languages to eleven. This caused English to stand out as the lingua franca of the wider community and resulted in government using English as the preferred medium of communication. This is especially the case in the business of law. The legal practice from the private, public and academic sectors is anglicising at a rapid rate which means that Afrikaans is diminishing as a legal language and that the nine additional official languages are not being developed entirely to function at a higher level. In the light of Anglicisation it begs the question whether it is still useful to teach Afrikaans as a legal language at tertiary institutions. This article explores the matter by focusing on the following: the importance of language within the legal profession, the history of Regsafrikaans, Anglicisation within the legal profession, English as the only language of record and the expediency of Afrikaans as a legal language. The authors arrive at the conclusion that it is indeed still important to teach Regsafrikaans to law students and recommend that law faculties should keep or reinstate this subject as part of their LLB curriculum.
A Comprehensive Picture of Factors Affecting User Willingness to Use Mobile Health Applications

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Mobile health (mHealth) applications have become increasingly valuable in preventive healthcare and in reducing the burden on healthcare organizations. The aim of this article is to investigate the factors that influence user acceptance of mHealth apps and identify the underlying structure that shapes users’ behavioral intention. An online study that employed factorial survey design with vignettes was conducted, and a total of 1,669 participants from eight countries across four continents were included in the study. Structural equation modeling was employed to quantitatively assess how various factors collectively contribute to users’ willingness to use mHealth apps. The results indicate that users’ digital literacy has the strongest impact on their willingness to use them, followed by their online habit of sharing personal information. Users’ concerns about personal privacy only had a weak impact. Furthermore, users’ demographic background, such as their country of residence, age, ethnicity, and education, has a significant moderating effect. Our findings have implications for app designers, healthcare practitioners, and policymakers. Efforts are needed to regulate data collection and sharing and promote digital literacy among the general population to facilitate the widespread adoption of mHealth apps.
WIGNER THEORY OF THE NAMBU STRING: (I) THE OPEN STRING

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

A set of relative variables for the open string with P 2 >0 is found, which has Wigner covariance properties. It allows one to obtain global Lorentz-invariant abelianizations of the constraints, and then to find global Lorentz-invariant canonically conjugated gauge variables. By means of the multitemporal approach a noncanonical redundant set of Dirac observables is defined; these transform as spin-1 Wigner vectors and satisfy constraints of the type of σ models. The generalized Virasoro algebra, except for L 0 , lives entirely in the gauge sector of the theory. The original canonical variables are expressed by means of the resulting generalized harmonic analysis in terms of these observables, and of the noncovariant center-of-mass ones. Quantization is not done, because a canonical basis of observables is still lacking, but the program to find them is expounded: instead of making a reduction from O (D–1)(P) to O (D–2), which would give a nonlinear realization of the Poincaré group like in the noncovariant approach, one has to find a Thomas-spin-adapted basis of observables which are Lorentz-invariant (except for three of them).

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

This research has been done with rabbit races of White New Zealand, California and Chinchilla. Effect of rations of high protein, low protein and containing urea with protein ration examined the feed efficiency. Experiment has been continued on three main groups(I.Ration, II.Ration, III.Ration Groups). Each mean group was formed three subgroups(White New Zealand, California and Chinchilla)and each subgroup was included 12 rabbits for each race. Then, the daily weight gain, the feed consumption and the feed conversion were determined by subgroups. All these values were not statisticaly significant. With the ration is contained urea, two months old rabbits were fed on 6 weeks and coefficients of gains in liveweight is 55.6 % on California rabbit, 49.0 % on White New Zeland rabbits and 47.0 % on Chinchilla rabbits
A randomized technique of constant-pressure infusion.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

A population study of measured inflow values of eyes of a group of adult male rhesus monkeys was done with a randomized technique of constant-pressure infusion. Each eye was presented with a sequence of 18 4-minute runs, consisting of three infusion runs for each of six pressures, in which the order of appearance of a given pressure had been randomized. A statistical analysis of the results indicates that only the independent variables of infusion pressure, type of anesthetic, and position in the sequence of the 18 infusion runs had a significant effect upon measured inflow.
Heparin-Induced Extracorporeal Fibrinogen/LDL Precipitation (HELP): A Promising Regimen for the Treatment of Vascular Diseases

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Current management of atherosclerotic diseases consists primarily of medical therapy designed to increase oxygen supply to the heart, the brain, retinal vessels, or lower limbs. The development of these diseases is based on atherosclerotic changes induced by risk factors such as elevated levels of fibrinogen and lipoproteins. These risk factors are related to a dramatic deterioration of the hemorrheologic pattern, which reduces perfusion. Consequently, attempts are now being made to treat ischemia via hemorrhe ological intervention. A new treatment modality utilizing the heparin-induced extracor poreal low-density lipoprotein (LDL) precipitation (HELP), offers the possibility of obtaining therapeutic success not only in cases of severe hypercholesterolemia but also in the field of hemorrheology. With HELP a safe and rapid reduction of fibrinogen and lipid fractions has become feasible, thus providing acute improvements of red cell aggregation, of the filterability of blood cells, of whole-blood and plasma viscosity, and thereby of microcirculation. Because cerebrovascular diseases are known to be related to distur bances of the hemorrheological situation, the HELP system is used in the Department of Electrobiology of Graz for the treatment of acute stroke, cerebral multiinfarct disease, and occlusions of retinal arteries.
Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Substituted Naphthalene Imides and Diimides as Anticancer Agent

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Naphthalimmide (NI) and 1,4,5,8-naphthalentetracarboxylic diimide (NDI) derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their antiproliferative activity. NDI derivatives 1-9 were more cytotoxic than the corresponding NI derivatives 10-18. The molecular mechanisms of 1 and 2 were investigated in comparison to mitonafide. They interacted with DNA, were not topoisomerase IIalpha poisons, triggered caspase activation, caused p53 protein accumulation, and down-regulated AKT survival. Furthermore, 1 and 2 caused a decrease of ERK1/2 and, unlike mitonafide, inhibited ERKs phosphorylation.

Philosophy of Christian conservatism of European thinkers of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. in the context of the formation of a modern Christ-centered personality and society

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

In modern Ukrainian reality languages ​​in a drop of water, and often - it is not a drop of water, but of living human blood, reflect those processes that threaten the existence of all mankind. But - history loves paradoxes - reflected also those processes that humanity can save. The idea of ​​a world-known Ukrainian-Polish christo-traditions of philosophizing, Russian, according to the language of works, of the writer F. M. Dostoyevsky, about the "world's sensitivity" to Ukrainians is directly, obviously, as described by him as a Christo-successional, Christ-centric, Sophian Ukrainian being, which had previously remained in the shadow of the empires and their global ambitions and appetites, tragically emerging from the forefront of world history in 2014, clearly demonstrated the true avant-garde of Ukrainians in quiet, non-aggressive advocacy rystyyanskoyi truth.
Dysregulation of the ASPP Protein Family (Apoptosis Stimulating Proteins of TP53) Is a Common Feature in High-Risk Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Inactivation of the TP53 pathway is a frequent event in human cancers promoting tumorigenesis and resistance to chemotherapy. Inactivating TP53 mutations are uncommon in non-complex karyotype leukemias suggesting that the TP53 pathway must be inactivated by other mechanisms. ASPP proteins are a family of TP53-binding proteins consisting of three members: pro-apoptotic ASPP1 and ASPP2 and apoptosis-inhibiting iASPP. ASPPs control induction of apoptosis via direct interactions with TP53 but also other key proteins such as BCL-2/BXL-xl. We here reveal universal dysregulation of ASPPs in AML correlating with chemotherapy failure and provide a novel therapeutic target. mRNA and protein expression levels of ASPP1, ASPP2 and iASPP were determined in freshly isolated native patient samples (n=120) as well as healthy bone marrow donors (n=34). To mimick direct implications of the specific ASPP protein in response to chemotherapy, ASPPs were stably silenced in leukemia cell lines (MOLM14, Jurkat, HL60, NB4 or OCI-3), native patient blasts and bone marrow donor samples using a retroviral shRNA approach. Sensitivity towards standard chemotherapeutics was assessed using XTT viability and annexin V-based apoptosis assays. Transfection with an empty vector served as a negative control. Interestingly, all family members, ASPP1 (p=0.001), ASPP2 (p=0.02) and iASPP (p=0.001) were found to be significantly altered in AML compared to healthy donors. Subgroup analyses revealed association with high-risk features and failure towards induction chemotherapy. Importantly, dysregulation was not exclusive and may affect several family members - which was associated with dismal outcome. Retroviral ASPP1/2 -interference lead to perturbed proliferation capacities (up to 3-fold increase) and attenuated apoptosis in response to chemotherapy in all tested models. Vice versa, inhibition of iASPP resulted in attenuated proliferation and an increase in apoptosis. For ASPP1/2, we demonstrate promoter methylation and restoration of protein expression upon treatment with aza-nucleosides. Additional BCL-2 inhibition (using venetoclax) consequently resulted in superadditive, proapoptotic efficacy compared to the knockdown cell strains. To summarize, dysfunctional regulation of ASPP proteins is a common feature in high-risk leukemias associated with treatment failure. Restoring pro-apoptotic ASPP1/2 function using hypomethylating agents and combination with proapoptotic agents such as venetoclax may overcome therapy resistance in these settings.

Sensor data monitoring software in android

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

This dissertation introduces an Android app which is used for monitoring the sensor data. A sensor detects the gap of cylinder and the data will be sent to an Android embedded computer using Modbus protocol, to display on a 2D graph. The project will allow users to set the interval time to receive the gap sensor data. At any time, it can show the future gap trend on the 2D graph using the Least Square Method algorithm. When the gap value reaches 0.6 mm, it will generate both the alert message and voice. A sensor is used in this project to detect the distance variable and to provide a corresponding output, generally as an optical or electrical signal. Next, the signal is transformed into digital signal which can be analyzed and monitored easily. For the sake o f convenience, the data will be generated from a software. The hardware platform for data monitoring in this dissertation is the SONY L36H, 4.3 Android version. The software development environment is Android Studio, developed by Google Company. The simulated data is generated from Modbus Slave software, using TCP communication protocol. To achieve data conveying, both the devices have to be under the same network, namely, the same Wi-Fi, to get the same IP address.
NIN-like protein transcription factors regulate leghemoglobin genes in legume nodules

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Nodulation regulation Legumes convert atmospheric nitrogen into biologically useful ammonium with the help of symbiotic bacteria housed in root nodules. Much of nodule development is controlled by the transcription factor NODULE INCEPTION (NIN). Feng et al . show that NIN is proteolytically processed to release a fragment that regulates the later stages of nodulation when the nodules acquire nitrogen-fixing capability. In related work, Jiang et al . identified members of the NIN-like protein (NLP) transcription factor family as being regulators of leghemoglobin expression acting through an unusual promotor motif shared across legumes. —PJH

Transient CFD and experimental analysis for improved Pelton turbine casing designs

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Impulse turbine casings play a very important role and experience dictates that the efficiency of a Pelton turbine is closely dependent on the success of keeping vagrant spray water away from the turbine runner and the water jet. Despite this overarching purpose, there is no standard design guidelines and casing styles vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, often incorporating a considerable number of shrouds and baffles to direct the flow of water into the tailrace with minimal interference with the aforementioned. Secondly, the success of a casing design is dependent on its ability to maintain this objective across a wide range of operating conditions that vary as a consequence of fluctuations in speed and load, resulting in considerable differences in spray leaving the runner. Conventionally, the baffle plates are designed to be most effective at the best efficiency, or duty, point and have been shown to be ineffective at extremes of speed and load. Therefore, efforts to design a casing with minimal amount of shrouding to reduce manufacturing costs is the objective of the project sponsors. The present work incorporates the Reynolds-averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) k-ε turbulence model and a two-phase Volume of Fluid (VOF) model, using the ANSYS® FLUENT® code to simulate the casing flow in a 2-jet horizontal axis Pelton turbine. The results of the simulation of two casing configurations are compared against flow visualisations and measurements obtained from a model established at the National Technical University of Athens. The CFD simulation also informs the design of new casing inserts to see their influence on the flow. Therefore, the outcome of this investigation provides further insight into guidelines for improved Pelton turbine casing design.
Affect in Robots for Interaction and Control - Challenges for the Engineer

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

This address will briefly consider the challenges and opportunities that arise from the integration of affect into robotic systems. Six challenge areas are identified as of particular relevance to robotics engineers. The first challenge is to sufficiently refine the display of affect by mechanical devices to give the impression or appearance of emotional engagement. The second challenge is to recognise affect as displayed by others, most particularly by human users. These two challenges relate primarily to the presentation of affect, there are related questions about how to best use it. It is widely assumed, though unproven, that these will improve the acceptability of robotic devices employed in the social and service sectors. The third challenge is to understand what about affect that can and cannot be understood in scientific and engineering terms. Much is open to measurement and modelling, but some - such as the notion of feelings - remain highly problematic. The fourth challenge is to take that analysis and build affect fully into the social control system of the robot, leading to essential progress in robot autonomy and working towards our understanding of the role and mechanism of natural affect. The fifth challenge is to find profitable application for affective robotics. One potential outcome is to build an enhanced level of behavioural compatibility between human user and robotic device. The sixth challenge as engineers is to ever take care - to ensure that reality does not, and is seen not to, match the popular apocalyptic expectation engendered at every opportunity by dramatist and film maker for robots imbued with "emotions".
Coastal emissions of methyl bromide and methyl chloride along the eastern Gulf of Mexico and the east coast of the United States

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

Measurements of methyl bromide (CH 3 Br) and methyl chloride (CH 3 Cl) were made during the Gulf of Mexico and the East Coast Carbon (GOMECC) cruise in the summer of 2007. This was the first large‐scale study of CH 3 Br and CH 3 Cl in the coastal ocean. The mean atmospheric mixing ratios were 10.1 ppt for CH 3 Br and 517 ppt for CH 3 Cl. Surface seawater concentrations ranged from 0.8 pM to 5.0 pM for CH 3 Br and from 61.5 pM to 179 pM for CH 3 Cl. Biological processes contribute to the elevated seawater concentrations of CH 3 Br, while a combination of biological processes and terrestrial sources may contribute to elevated seawater concentrations of CH 3 Cl. Vertical distributions show highest concentrations of CH 3 Br and CH 3 Cl in the subsurface seawater below the mixed layer due to high degradation rates near the surface. Good correlation of the production rates between CH 3 Br and CH 3 Cl suggests they have some common sources in the coastal ocean. After excluding the open ocean points, annual coastal emissions in the studied region were 0.01–0.06 Gg yr −1 for CH 3 Br and 0.3–1.6 Gg yr −1 for CH 3 Cl. By simple extrapolation, the global coastal emissions were estimated at 0.5–3.6 Gg yr −1 for CH 3 Br and 19–98 Gg yr −1 for CH 3 Cl. Including the coastal ocean emissions of CH 3 Br and CH 3 Cl will increase the estimate of global oceanic emissions by 1%–9% and 1%–8%, respectively.
Cis−Trans Isomerizations of β-Carotene and Lycopene: A Theoretical Study

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

The all-trans to mono-cis isomerizations of polyenes and two C40H56 carotenes, beta-carotene and lycopene, at the ground singlet (S0) and triplet (T1) states are studied by means of quantum chemistry computations. At the S0 state of polyenes containing n acetylene units (Pn), we find that the energy barrier of the central C=C rotation decreases with n. In contrast, however, at the T 1 state, the rotational barrier increases with n. For the C40H56 carotenes, the rotational barriers of lycopene are lower than those of their beta-carotene counterparts. This difference renders the rotational rates of lycopene to be 1-2 orders of magnitude higher than those of beta-carotene at room temperature. For both these carotenes, the barrier is lowest for the rotation toward the 13-cis isomer. The relative abundances are in the following order: all-trans > 9-cis > 13-cis > 15-cis. Although the 5-cis isomer of lycopene has the lowest energy among the cis isomers, its formation from the all-trans form is restricted, owing to a very large rotational barrier. The possible physiological implications of this study are discussed.
