Centeno, R.,Rodrí,guez, J. Blanco,Del Toro Iniesta, J. C.,Solanki, S. K.,Barthol, P.,Gandorfer, A.,Gizon, L.,Hirzberger, J.,Riethmü,ller, T. L.,Noort, M. van,Suá,rez, D. Orozco,Berkefe American Astronomical Society 2017 The Astrophysical journal Supplement series Vol.229 No.1

<P>In 2013 June, the two scientific instruments on. board the second SUNRISE mission witnessed, in detail, a small-scale magnetic flux emergence event as part of the birth of an active region. The Imaging Magnetograph Experiment (IMaX) recorded two small (similar to 5 '') emerging flux patches in the polarized filtergrams of a photospheric Fe I spectral line. Meanwhile, the SUNRISE Filter Imager (SuFI) captured the highly dynamic chromospheric response to the magnetic fields pushing their way through the lower solar atmosphere. The serendipitous capture of this event offers a closer look at the inner workings of active region emergence sites. In particular, it reveals in meticulous detail how the rising magnetic fields interact with the granulation as they push through the Sun's surface, dragging photospheric plasma in their upward travel. The plasma that is burdening the rising field slides along the field lines, creating fast downflowing channels at the footpoints. The weight of this material anchors this field to the surface at semi-regular spatial intervals, shaping it in an undulatory fashion. Finally, magnetic reconnection enables the field to release itself from its photospheric anchors, allowing it to continue its voyage up to higher layers. This process releases energy that lights up the arch-filament systems and heats the surrounding chromosphere.</P>

<P>We successfully grew AIrO<SUB>3</SUB> (A = Ca, Ba Sr) incorporated Bi<SUB>2</SUB> Sr<SUB>2</SUB> CaCu<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>8+δ</SUB> (BSCCO) films using pulsed laser deposition technique with post-growth ex situ treatment. The incorporation was accomplished by initially growing AIrO<SUB>3</SUB> iridate nanoparticles on top of a single crystal MgO (100) substrate followed by a BSCCO layer. The composite film was then partial melted at 890 °C for 15 min and annealed at 850 °C for 5 h in ambient air. In this way, we controlled the type of iridate nanoparticles, which were embedded inside the superconducting BSCCO matrix. We observed that the superconducting transition temperature T<SUB>c-zero</SUB>, activation energy U<SUB>o</SUB>, and magnetoresistance can be tuned depending on the type of iridate incorporation.</P>

EFFECTS OF NARROWED SOCIAL DISTANCES ON LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL CELEBRITY-ENDORSED ADVERTISEMENT ATTITUDES: TOWARDS A RELATIONAL APPROACH

Dave Centeno,Jeff Jianfeng Wang 글로벌지식마케팅경영학회 2018 Global Marketing Conference Vol.2018 No.07

This paper examines the effects of narrowed social distance with celebrity endorsers (i.e., via close relationship categories) and their origin (i.e., local or international) on consumer evaluations towards their endorsed advertisements. It is proposed that employing a relational approach in celebrity endorsement where celebrities are framed as sociallyclose personae leads to increased attitudes toward the advertisement. A pilot test on actual advertisements and three laboratory studies show that the celebrity endorsement is more effective when the advertisement features the celebrities as socially-close personae than when they are more distant; and these effects are more pronounced when the celebrity is local than foreign. Finally, the study proposes that consumer self-referencing towards celebrities mediates these effects. Anchored on construal level and social identity theories, implications on relational approach in celebrity endorsements and on international marketing communications are discussed complementarily with Asian culture inherently subscribing to relational celebrity endorsements.

CELEBRITIES AS HUMAN BRANDS: AN INQUIRY ON STAKEHOLDER-ACTOR CO-CREATION OF BRAND IDENTITIES

Dave Centeno,Jeff Jianfeng Wang 글로벌지식마케팅경영학회 2016 Global Marketing Conference Vol.2016 No.7

This paper examines the co-creation of human brands identities exemplified by celebrities in a stakeholder-actor approach. By bringing together the theoretical web of service-dominant logic, stakeholder theory, actor-network theory, and consumer culture theory, we argue that human brand identities are co-created by multiple stakeholder-actors that have resources and incentives in the activities that make a up an enterprise of a human brand, including the celebrities themselves, consumer-fans, and business entities. By utilizing an observational, archival netnographic data from popular social media channels, four exemplars of celebrity identities from the Philippines demonstrate the co-creation of human brands. Findings illustrate key stakeholder-actors’ participations, production and consumption, and integrations of resources and incentives in the co-creation process as articulated in social media. The co-creation process happens through sociological translations codes namely: social construction and negotiation of identities, parasocialization, influence projection, legitimization, and utilization of human brand identities. These dynamics of human brand identity advance a stakeholder-actor paradigm of service co-creation that is adaptive to the predominant consumer culture and human ideals that surround the celebrity. Implications and future research on celebrity brand marketing management are discussed.

Analysis of the Architectural strategies that enhance the design of safe and healthy neighborhoods in modern cities. : A comparative study between Seoul and Paris

Andrea Centeno,이경훈 한국셉테드학회 2020 한국셉테드학회지 Vol.11 No.2

본 연구에서는 파리와 서울 두 대도시 간의 비교문화적 분석을 통해 보다 안전하고 건강한 근린지역을 만들기 위한 건축계획적 전략을 규명하는 것을 목적으로 사회적 건강, 환경적 건강, 그리고 개인적 건강이라는 세가지 개념에 건축·도시환경이 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 비교분석의 대상이 된 두 도시는 파리는 밀집한 저층의 중정형 블록으로, 서울은 독립적으로 선 초고층의 아파트 타워로 고밀도의 주거를 형성하고 있어 고밀도의 도시에서 주거를 제공하는 두 개의 상반된 접근방법을 보여준다. 연구는 두 단계에 걸쳐 수행되었는데, 첫 단계는 연구자의 현장조사와 관찰에 의해 두 지역의 물리적 특성이 조사되었으며, 두 번째 단계는 각각 서울에서 36명, 파리에서 66명의 주민을 대상으로 한 인터뷰를 통해 물리적 특성에 대한 주민들의 인식 등이 조사되었다. 연구결과 두 도시에서 모두 건축·도시환경이 사회적, 환경적, 개인적 건강과 밀접한 관계를 가지고 있다는 것이 밝혀졌으며, 특히 저층 중정형 블록이 근린의 건강과 안전을 증진시키는데 상대적으로 유리하며, 초고층 타워로 구성된 주거지역은 토지이용이나 건축면적, 탄소배출량, 서비스의 양과 다양성 등에서 덜 효율적인 것으로 나타났다. This paper is based on a comparative ethnographic study between the cities of Paris and Seoul, with the main objective of identifying the architectural planning strategies that make neighborhoods safer and healthier. This idea is developed around three concepts: Social health, Environmental health and personal health, and they are based on the relation between the built environment and the healthy functionality of a society, the mental and physical health of individuals, and the health of the planet. The neighborhoods chosen to be compared show two different approaches to provide housing in big cities: middle/low-rise enclosed blocks, in the city of Paris, and free-standing middle/high rise residential towers, in the city of Seoul. The study areas were analyzed in a selected area of 0.5km² in each city, by a two phase on site study: a first phase consisting on a field recognition by an observer, and a second phase consisting on interviews by questionnaires to the residents. The number of interviewees were 66 people in Paris and 36 people in Seoul. The ethnographic study was executed for a duration of two months, in the case of Paris, and 3 months in the city of Seoul, periods during which the two phases described above were conducted. Given the qualitative character of the ethnographic study, the results are presented by a descriptive statistical analysis of the collected data, and it highlights the multiple strategies which benefit the health and security of neighborhoods, found mainly in Paris. Comparing the architectural planning strategies on both cities, the low height enclosed block type, with its mix-uses character proved to be highly beneficial for social health, personal health and environmental health, in comparison to free standing towers and monofunctional design. The results also provide evidence on the relation and relevance of the built environment in the health of people, society and the planet in both cities, despite their different backgrounds. Another important finding was that the neighborhood with free standing towers analyzed in Seoul is less effective in terms of use of the land, referred to m² of construction, less services in quantity and variety and more CO2 emissions, when compared to the enclosed block type found in Paris. This paper intends to provide evidence on the importance of the design of the built environment in the health and safety of the people who inhabit them, and the planet in which they are built. It is hoped that the findings can serve as reference for designers and developers to respond to the climatic and social changes of our era.

Penetrating gallbladder injury in a pediatric patient: a case report

Cruz-Centeno Nelimar,Stewart Shai,Marlor Derek R.,Dekonenko Charlene,Hendrickson Richard J. 대한외상학회 2023 大韓外傷學會誌 Vol.36 No.3

Penetrating gallbladder injuries are uncommon in the pediatric population. The treatment varies according to the severity of the injury and the patient’s hemodynamics. We present the case of an 11-year-old male with an accidental pellet gunshot wound to the right upper abdomen that resulted in a grade III liver laceration and damage to the anterior gallbladder wall. The patient underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy with drain placement. Postoperative radiography of the surgical specimen confirmed the presence of the pellet in the gallbladder. The patient recovered uneventfully and was discharged home on postoperative day 3. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a feasible treatment option for penetrating gallbladder injuries in hemodynamically stable patients.

Cinnamomum cassia on Arterial Stiffness and Endothelial Dysfunction in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Outcomes of a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial

Jesu´s S. Delgadillo-Centeno,Fernando Grover-Pa´ez,Sandra O. Herna´ndez-Gonza´lez,Marı´a G. Ramos-Zavala,David Cardona-Mu¨ ller,Alicia Lo´pez-Castro,Sara Pascoe-Gonza´lez 한국식품영양과학회 2023 Journal of medicinal food Vol.26 No.6

Cinnamomum cassia is a medicinal plant whose use has demonstrated benefits on body weight, blood pressure, glucose, and lipids. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of C. cassia on arterial stiffness and endothelial dysfunction (ED) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial was carried out in 18 subjects aged 40–65 years, with a diagnosis of T2DM of one year or less since diagnosis and treated with Metformin 850 mg daily. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either C. cassia or a placebo in 1000 mg capsules, thrice a day, before each meal for 12 weeks. At baseline and after 12 weeks of intervention, brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity and Flow Mediated Dilation were measured, as well as body weight, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure (BP), fasting glucose (FG), glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, and very low density lipoprotein cholesterol, respectively, triglycerides, creatinine, and transaminases. The Mann–Whitney U test for differences between groups and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test for intragroup differences were used, and a P ≤ .05 was considered statistically significant. After C. cassia administration, statistically significant reductions in body weight (81.4 ± 10.4 kg vs. 79.9 ± 9.0 kg, P = .037), BMI (30.6 ± 4.2 kg/m2 vs. 30.1 ± 4.2 kg/m2, P = .018), and HbA1c (53 ± 5.4 mmol/mol vs. 45 ± 2.1 mmol/mol, P = .036) were observed. No changes statistically significant on arterial stiffness, ED, FG, BP, and lipids were observed. C. cassia administration decreases body weight, BMI, and HbA1c without statistically significant changes on arterial stiffness, ED, FG, BP, and lipids. CTR Number: NCT04259606

Megaselia scalaris (Diptera: Phoridae) development and behaviour under fluoxetine effect and Calliphora vicina (Diptera: Calliphoridae) presence

Zanetti Noelia Inés,Centeno Néstor Daniel 한국응용곤충학회 2024 Journal of Asia-Pacific Entomology Vol.27 No.1

Megaselia scalaris Loew (Diptera: Phoridae) and Calliphora vicina Robineau-Desvoidy (Diptera: Calliphoridae) are species of medical and forensic interest. Scuttle flies can eat carrion but also behave as a facultative parasitoid of other organisms. This study evaluated the effect of fluoxetine on the development of M. scalaris, and also the feeding behavior of the scuttle flies. For this, these flies were reared on artificial fodder with 2000 mg/kg of fluoxetine and also larvae of blue bottle flies on third stage were added. A control was used for each analysis. Daily observations were performed from the beginning to the end of the experiments. The duration of life cycle, body length, grosso modo external morphology and sex ratio were evaluated. Results indicated that development of M. scalaris was not affected by fluoxetine. The duration of stages, body length and external morphology did not show differences between fluoxetine and control groups. In addition, scuttle flies did not behave as parasites of blue bottle flies in their larval advanced stage and their presence did not interference on the development of M. scalaris. In conclusion, no alteration was observed on the development of M. scalaris at the dose of fluoxetine used and scuttle flies presence did not necessarily imply predation or parasitism of C. vicina larvae. Therefore, the current study provides data that could be applied in forensic entomological research or in forensic expertise.
