Abstract:
President Xi Jinping carried out a military reorganization carried out in 2015. The reorganization included forming the PLA Rocket Force as a new dimension tasked with handling missile weapons, both conventional and nuclear. This article uses offensive-defensive theory in analyzing the formation of PLARF as an effort to secure national interests. Furthermore, this article will explain why China formed PLARF and prefers to develop these missile weapons through offensive-defensive theory variables. Thus it can be said that the factor of weaponry technology plays a dominant role in the formation of PLARF. Keyword : PLARF, China, Offense-Defense Abstrak Presiden Xi Jinping melakukan reorganisasi militer pada tahun 2015. Reorganisasi tersebut diantaranya mengubah PLA Second Altilery Corps (PLASAC) menjadi PLA Rocket Force (PLARF) sebagai matra baru yang sejajar dengan matra liannya serta memiliki tugas untuk menangani persenjataan misil, konvensional maupun nuklir. PLARF dilengkapi persenjataan rudal dengan berbagai jelajah. Pengembangan teknologi persenjataan dilakukan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan PLARF. Secara geografis, PLARF diperlukan untuk melindungi wilayah territorial Tiongkok. Presiden Xi Jinping menggambarkan PLARF sebagai inti kekuatan deterrence strategis Tiongkok, yang diperlihatkan melalui parade militer secara besar. PLARF juga disiapkan untuk melakukan operasi gabungan, serta adanya kontrol CMC terhadap PLARF memberikan kewenangan yang unik .Artikel ini menggunakan teori ofensif-defensif dalam menganalisis reorganisasi militer yang dilakukan Tiongkok. Selanjutnya, artikel ini akan menjelaskan mengapa Tiongkok membentuk PLARF serta lebih memilih mengembangkan persenjataan misil tersebut melalui variabel teori ofensif-defensif. Dengan demikian dapat dikatakan bahwa faktor teknologi persenjataan memegang peran dominan dalam pembentukan PLARF. Kata kunci : PLARF,Tiongkok, Ofensif-Defensif

Abstract:
Background: Polyalthia longifolia which originates from India is rich with various useful phytochemicals which are valuable for human health. Accordingly, the current study was conducted to evaluate the combinational antimicrobial activity of P. longifolia Ethyl Acetate Fraction (PLEAF) with ampicillin, antioxidant and cytotoxicity activities. Methods: The evaluation of the synergistic activity of PLEAF fraction and ampicillin against MRSA local isolate was conducted with various antimicrobial assays. Results: The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) values of PLEAF fraction (62.5 μg/mL) and ampicillin (5000 μg/mL) were found to decrease to 15.63 μg/mL for PLEAF and 2500 μg/mL for ampicillin respectively in the Fractional Inhibitory Concentration (FIC) assay against the MRSA bacteria. The 2,2-diphenyl1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and nitric oxide free radical scavenging activities showed that PLEAF fraction possessed high antioxidant activity and the combinational of PLEAF fraction and ampicillin exhibited moderate antioxidant activity. The total phenolic content (TPC) of PLEAF was 168.22 ± 0.00407 μg GAE/g of PLEAF fraction. Discussion: henolic compounds might be responsible for the observed antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of PLEAF fraction. In addition, in 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) cytotoxicity test against Vero cells the PLEAF fraction was proven to be non-toxic (98.14% of cell viability) and the combination of PLEAF fraction and ampicillin treatment against the Vero cells showed an improved cell viability (52.44%) as compared with ampicillin alone in the treated group. Conclusions: The PLEAF fraction works well in combination with ampicillin to kill the MRSA local resistance strain. PLEAF fraction also showed favourable antioxidant activity and improved Vero cell viability in the presence of ampicillin which is an important attribute of PLEAF fraction to be used in the future combinational therapy.

Abstract:
AbstractPolylactic acid fibrils (PLAf) were employed as a fiber component in papermaking. The addition of 5 wt % of PLAf to bleached kraft birch pulp increased the tensile index of the resulting 100 g/m2 paper sheets by 20 % in comparison to sheets produced without PLAf. By heat-treating the paper sheets containing 5 wt % PLAf, a 35 % higher tensile index in comparison to sheets produced without PLAf was achieved. SEM imaging showed that the heat-treatment caused the PLAf to melt, which formed a film on the fiber web. The PLAf was ultrasonicated in an attempt to make its surface more hydrophilic and anionic and thus more compatible with cellulose. Chemical additives (cationic polyacrylamide, polyethylene imine and polyethylene glycol) were added to the PLAf/cellulose pulp mixture in order to increase the binding between the ultrasonicated PLAf and cellulose. Ultrasonication caused the PLAf length to decrease and the PLAf surface charge changed by 36 %, indicating that the PLAf became significantly more anionic. Neither ultrasonication of PLAf nor the chemical additives improved the paper sheets’ stretchability. Polyethyleneimine as an additive in an amount of 1 % increased the tensile index of heat-treated sheets made with 5 wt % of PLAf by 19 %.

Abstract:
Background: Polyalthia longifolia is a popular medicinal plant and has been widely used as a traditional remedy for centuries in curing of various ailments. The purpose of this study was conducted to determine the in situ antimicrobial synergistic effects between Polyalthia longifolia leaf ethyl acetate fraction (PLEAF) and ampicillin against MRSA local isolate by using modern microscopy technique. Methods: Hence, the evaluation of the synergistic activity of PLEAF and ampicillin against MRSA local isolate was conducted with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results: The combinational effect of PLEAF fraction and ampicillin exhibited significant antibacterial activity against MRSA. Bacterial cells observations showed invagination, impaired cell division, extensive wrinkles, cell shrinkage, the appearance of a rougher cell with fibrous matrix and clustered cells which confirmed the synergistic effect of PLEAF and ampicillin against MRSA local isolate by SEM. Conclusion: Conclusively, the in situ SEM observation proved the synergistic antimicrobial activity between PLEAF fraction and ampicillin to destroy the MRSA resistance bacteria which is an important aspect of PLEAF fraction to be used in the future combinational therapy.

Abstract:
Legionella pneumophila encodes an extracellular secreted phospholipase A named PlaA that is translocated by the type II secretion system. It plays an essential role in maintaining the integrity of Legionella-containing vacuoles in L. pneumophila pathogenesis. Here, it is shown that PlaA has a main lysophospholipase activity to hydrolyze fatty-acyl groups in lysophospholipids. Although it has a very low phospholipase A activity to catalyze the hydrolysis of fatty-acyl groups in phospholipids, PlaA can bind phospholipids such as 1,2-dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine with a dissociation constant of 11.1 µM. Sequence-alignment analysis combined with activity assays revealed that PlaA contains a distinct substrate-binding site among the known structures of the phospholipase A family, implying that PlaA may present a novel mechanism for substrate recognition. Native PlaA and its selenomethionine (SeMet)-substituted form were purified and crystallized by vapour diffusion in hanging drops at 296 K. Diffraction data were collected to a resolution of 2.0 Å for native PlaA protein and to a resolution of 2.7 Å for SeMet-substituted PlaA protein. The crystals of native PlaA belonged to the monoclinic space group P21, while the crystals of SeMet-substituted PlaA belonged to the primitive orthorhombic space group P212121. Initial phases for PlaA were obtained from SeMet SAD data sets.

Abstract:
3541 Background: So far, no biomarkers of response to anti-angiogenic drugs are available in colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment. Liquid biopsy tracks dynamic mutational changes in CRC patients (pts). RAS mutant allele fraction in plasma (plMAF) is an independent prognostic marker in metastatic CRC (mCRC). We explored the predictive value of plMAF in RAS mutant pts treated in 1st line with chemotherapy +/- bevacizumab (bev). Methods: A multicentric prospective/retrospective analysis was conducted. We collected data from 226 mCRC pts and selected the subset not eligible for metastasis resection with basal plMAF sample evaluable for RAS mutant MAF quantification with digital PCR (BEAMing). Pts were stratified as high (≥ 5.8%) or low ( < 5.8%) plMAF. We investigated associations between clinicopathological variables and progression-free survival (PFS) stratified by plMAF RAS levels using Cox regression models and survival data were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Computational analysis of baseline CT scan data extracted 93 radiomics features of all the lesions per patient including 1) 1st class from density histogram distribution and texture analysis by 2) 2nd order and 3) higher order feature classes. The radiomic features distribution between pts with high and low pIMAF was assessed with Student’s t-test analysis. Results: From October 17 to May 19, 63 basal plasma samples were analysed with BEAMing. 42 pts (67.7%) were classified as high and 21 pts (32,3%) as low plMAF. In high plMAF subgroup, a statistically significant longer PFS favouring FOLFOX+bev was observed, compared to FOLFOX alone (10.7 vs 6.9 mts; HR: 0.30; p = 0.002). In low RAS plMAF subgroup, no differences in terms of PFS were observed in either arm (8.9 vs 8.7 mts; HR: 0.7; p = 0.6). Multivariate PFS model showed no association between RAS plMAF and clinicopathological variables, except for high RAS plMAF and treatment benefit with FOLFOX+bev. The CT-radiomics signature, that may translate tumor vascularization, differentiated patients with high vs low pIMAF (p = 0.002). 58 patients (92%) had similar radiomic score; 5 patients with high plMAF (8%) presented very heterogeneous radiomic score distribution. Conclusions: Tumor-borne RAS plMAFs may constitute a potential predictive biomarker of efficacy for anti-angiogenic drugs in mCRC. Next steps will include the identification of -histological, transcriptomic and radiomic- surrogate biomarkers of response that reflect tumor irrigational status.

Thesis (MA)-- Stellenbosch University, 2013.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die eerste gedeelte van hierdie tesis is ʼn opstel met die titel Van plaas tot agterplaas: Die uitbeelding van Afrikaners in Johannesburg in drie Hertzogpryswenners en die tweede deel is ʼn roman getiteld ʼn Duisend stories oor Johannesburg. Die roman en die opstel hou tematies met mekaar verband. Soos die roman, speel al drie bekroonde werke in Johannesburg af met Afrikaners as sentrale karakters. Die bepaalde historiese konteks waarin elkeen van die drie pryswenners verskyn het, dikteer die invalshoek van die opstel, hoe die werk krities ontvang is, sowel as die rol en waarde wat deur die Afrikaner-instelling daaraan toegeken is. Daar sal verder in die bespreking getoon word watter rol die Hertzogprys in die skepping van die Afrikaner-instelling gespeel het. Die gebruik van die begrip en eienaam “Afrikaner” in hierdie bespreking verwys na die wit, Afrikaanssprekende, Christelike gemeenskap in Suid-Afrika, in die sin dat dit ooreenstem met die (uiters aanvegbare) stelling dat alle wit Afrikaanssprekers saamgevoeg kan word in ʼn organiese “volkseenheid”. Hierdie voorveronderstelling aanvaar ook dat hierdie “Afrikanerdom” tradisionele, konserwatiewe volkswaardes deel, en altyd beskikbaar is vir mobilisering ter wille van gedeelde Afrikaner-belange, soos deur Dan O‟Meara gedefinieer in sy Volkskapitalisme: Class, capital and ideology in the development of Afrikaner nationalism, 1934 – 1948 (1983:6). Hierdie kwessies word, onder meer, deur die polisisteemteorie van die Israeliese kultuurnavorser, Itamar Even-Zohar, asook J.B. Thompson se kritiese teorie van ideologie gedoen. Daar word ook na Jacques Rancière se teorie oor “die verspreiding van die waarneembare” (the distribution of the sensible) verwys. Daar word tot die gevolgtrekking gekom dat die Hertzogprys van meet af aan in diens van die Afrikaner-instelling gestaan het en ten spyte van ʼn veranderende ideologiese landskap, ʼn voortgesette rol gespeel het in die daarstelling van die Afrikaner-repertoire. Binne die polisisteemteorie is die “repertoire” die versameling reëls en elemente wat die produksie van tekste bepaal. Die term “instelling” verwys na die faktore wat betrokke is by die instandhouding van die letterkunde as ʼn sosio-kulturele aktiwiteit. Die roman speel af in ʼn klein Johannesburgse hotelletjie, genaamd Mei Villa, in die buurt Belgravia, tydens ʼn uitbarsting van xenofobiese geweld in 2008. Binne ʼn raamverhaalstruktuur fokus die roman op twee karakters, naamlik die ontheemde argitek, Zweig van Niekerk, wat na 40 jaar na Johannesburg terugkeer, asook die hoteleienaar, die bekroonde maar mindere digter, Bosman Hiemstra. Omring deur hotelgaste en personeel met hulle uiteenlopende verhale, soek Zweig van Niekerk tevergeefs na die Johannesburg van sy jeug, terwyl Bosman Hiemstra met ewe min sukses ʼn tweede digbundel probeer skryf. Aan die einde van die boek begin die digter ʼn roman te skryf met sy gas se lewensverhaal as gegewe dalk ook die boek wat die leser pas klaar gelees het.
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The first part of this thesis is an essay titled Van plaas tot agterplaas: Die uitbeelding van Afrikaners in Johannesburg in drie Hertzogpryswenners (From farm yard to back yard: The depiction of Afrikaners in Johannesburg in three Hertzog Prize winners) and the second part is a novel called ʼn Duisend stories oor Johannesburg (A thousand tales of Johannesburg). The novel and the essay are thematically linked. Like the novel, the three Hertzog Prize winners takes place in Johannesburg with Afrikaners as central characters. The point of departure of the essay is the historical context in which the three literary works were published, the critical reception thereof and what role and value was attributed to it by the Afrikaner institution. The role played by the Hertzog Prize in the creation of the Afrikaner institution will also be discussed. The term “Afrikaner” in this discussion refers to the white Afrikaans-speaking, Christian community in South Africa, in the sense that it correlates with the (highly debatable) contention that all white Afrikaans-speakers can be combined in an organic “volkseenheid”. This use of the term assumes that “Afrikanerdom” also shares traditional, conservative national values, and is always available for mobilisation in service of shared Afrikaner interests, as defined by Dan O'Meara in his Volkskapitalisme: Class, capital and ideology in the development of Afrikaner nationalism, 1934 – 1948 (1983:6). To examine these issues, the polysystem theory of the Israeli cultural researcher, Itamar Even-Zohar, as well as J.B. Thompson's critical theory of ideology, will be used. Reference is also made to Jacques Rancière's theory around “the distribution of the sensible”. The conclusion is reached that despite a continuously changing ideological landscape, the Hertzog Prize served the interests of the Afrikaner institution from the very start and played an ongoing role in the Afrikaner repertoire. Within the polysystem theory the “repertoire” is the aggregate of rules and elements which determine the production of texts. The term “institution” refers to the factors involved in the maintenance of literature as a socio-cultural activity. The novel is set in a small hotel, Mei Villa, in the Belgravia neighbourhood in Johannesburg during an outbreak of xenophobic violence in 2008. Within the story structure it focuses on two characters, the displaced architect, Zweig van Niekerk, who returns to Johannesburg after 40 years, and the hotel owner and award-winning, but lesser poet, Bosman Hiemstra. Surrounded by other hotel guests and staff with their own stories, Zweig van Niekerk searches in vain for the Johannesburg of his youth, while Bosman Hiemstra attempts with equal lack of success, to write a second book of poetry. At the end of the book the poet starts to write a novel using his guest's life as material; that could be the book that the reader has just completed.

A semi-arid country, like South Africa, with unpredictable seasonal rainfall, is subject to great scarcity in water and an ever-increasing demand from the rising human population. Therefore, efficient reservoirs as well as monitoring methods are needed to manage the South African water supply. This study was undertaken on the Eerste River in the Western Cape, South Africa, focusing on the impact of the Klein Plaas dam system on the benthic macroinvertebrates. The study also examined the use of benthic macroinvertebrates as bioindicators of water quality with special reference to the South African Scoring System Version 5(SASS5) that is currently being used nationally. The impoundment of the water, as well as the inter-basin transfer programme and the experimental cage-culture trout farm, all play a significant role in the disturbance impact of the dam on the Eerste River system. The disturbance is manifested as a drop in water quality that can be seen in the distribution of keystone species, changes in the riparian vegetation, as well as in physical-, chemical-, and biomonitoring evaluations. The study also indicated that the SASS5 is effective, but needs some adjustments, such as inclusion of a prediction phase, finer spatial-scale methodologies and greater consideration of the rarity of species.

Abstract:
Scholarly communication has changed with the growth in technology, particularly the internet and the social web. The changes include a broader definition of the scholarly communication format, and the role of social media in the research process, amongst others. This study sought to record the body of work that PLAAS had produced over a 20-year period (1995 to 2015) and to measure its visibility and impact through bibliometrics and altmetrics. It was the first time that such a study had been done. The Web of Science Citation Index and Scopus are two commercial databases that have recently been joined by Google Scholar, the first open database of scholarly items with citation counts based on the entire contents of the World Wide Web. Scopus and Google Scholar were used in this study. Methods used in the study included the compilation of a full bibliographic record of the outputs during that period. Citation analysis and publication counts were conducted, per author, within Scopus and Google Scholar. Altmetric analysis was achieved with the Altmetric Explorer database, and by studying three PLAAS grey literature outputs in more depth for altmetric indicators. The last method used was a small survey based on an online multiple-choice questionnaire of researchers at PLAAS to investigate their attitudes to a selection of the social media platforms commonly used by scholars. The full list of outputs, once compiled, showed a composition of 54% grey literature published by PLAAS and 46% journal articles and monographs. The results showed that bibliometrics, as a purely quantitative indicator, can be useful in measuring the impact of a body of work on the scholarly domain and in this study indicated high publication and citation rates. The authors of the highest number of PLAAS outputs and with the highest citation counts and h-indices, were found to be the same throughout the study. These authors are closely associated with the Institute and have contributed to the good academic reputation of its research. The study was inconclusive with regard to the impact on social media platforms as none of the grey literature from PLAAS had a unique identifier which made it difficult to track; in addition, the use of social media by the Institute and its researchers was intermittent and uneven in covering all the PLAAS-published outputs that were produced. Key recommendations for PLAAS to improve the visibility and impact of their outputs in scholarly and social contexts were to use unique identifiers, to track their social media activity and to keep author profiles up to date. Further use and application of the research design in other research units and departments at UWC will generate results that are useful to research management at UWC.

Abstract:
The vitamin D metabolite 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1α,25(OH)2D3] plays an important role in the regulation of musculoskeletal growth and differentiation. 1α,25(OH)2D3 mediates its effects on cells, including chondrocytes and osteoblasts, through the classical nuclear 1α,25(OH)2D3 receptor. Additionally, recent evidence indicates that several cellular responses to 1α,25(OH)2D3 are mediated via a rapid, calcium-dependent membrane-mediated pathway. These actions of 1α,25(OH)2D3 can be blocked by antibodies to protein-disulfide isomerase family A, member 3 (Pdia3), indicating that it is part of the receptor complex; however, the pathway which is activated by this receptor is not fully understood. The overall goal of this thesis was to examine the roles of phospholipase A2 activating protein (PLAA) and calcium calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII) in 1α,25(OH)2D3 rapid membrane-mediated signaling. We further investigated the interaction between two pathways regulating growth plate cartilage and endochondral bone formation, 1α,25(OH)2D3 and Wnt5a, at the receptor complex level. Results indicated that PLAA was required for mediating 1α,25(OH)2D3 signal from Pdia3. Furthermore, CaM and CaMKII were identified as mediators of 1α,25(OH)2D3-stimulated PLAA-dependent activation of cPLA2 and PKCα, and downstream biological effects. Wnt5a and 1α,25(OH)2D3 are important regulators of endochondral bone formation. This study demonstrated that 1α,25(OH)2D3 and Wnt5a mediate their effects via similar receptor components in osteoblasts and chondrocytes suggesting that these pathways may interact.

Since PRC has established, its military thought throughout take "people''s war" as highest guiding principle. In 1991, the USAAF has carried out the high tech air strike on Iraq. It makes PLA understand they have been unable to adapt the future war condition request. Therefore the PRC adjusts its strategic concept, change "people''s war" principle to "wins the modern technology war", especially "under high-tech condition local war". The PRC thought the characteristic of future war will be limited the battlefield for the war goal. Therefore the local war emphasize to the rapid attack, the total recall is useless. But the air force is suitable for this kind of war.
