The Andalusian Agency of Energy has identified three areas of major interest for harnessing wave energy, in their plan of “Marine Energy and Energy Resources of Andalusia”. One of these areas is located on the Atlantic coast, the bay of Cádiz. Considering this initial interest, the objective of this work is to carry out an evaluation of the performance provided by various technologies of wave energy conversion in the bay of Cádiz. The data for the wave climate in the target area are obtained from the Spanish Agency Puertos del Estado. Diagrams for bivariate distributions of the sea states occurrences, defined by the significant wave height and the energy period, are shown. On this basis, the output of nine different technologies for the conversion of wave energy is assessed in the reference locations in the bay of Cádiz. According to the results obtained, it can be said that the bay of Cádiz is a suitable place for wave energy extraction.

Published: February 2022

An increasing prevalence of hypertension and mortality rate from hypertension complications especially the end stage kidney disease; urge the establishment of routine test for early detection of kidney disease. The aim of this study is to assess the blood urea and creatinine levels in routine visit of hypertensive individuals. Two hundred hypertension patients were enrolled in this study, the demographic and lifestyle data were collected by pre-designed questionnaire. Urea and creatinine were measured for 151 and 159 patient, respectively, using spectrophotometry kits method. Of the studied hypertensive patients, about two third are females (64.5%), 92% aged more than 40 years. 32.5% had diabetes, and 5.5% had kidney disease. No significant gender difference with regard to the development of complications such as diabetes, stroke, kidney disease and hyperlipidemia (P = 0.7-1.0). In less than ten years duration of hypertension; 32%, 11%, 5% and 49% of the patients develop diabetes, stroke, kidney disease and hyperlipidemia, respectively, which suggest an inadequate disease control. Of the behavioral risk factors salt; intake is significantly higher in males than in females (P = 0.022). 38.4% and 35.2% of the analyzed samples had an elevated urea and creatinine level, respectively. Twenty four of samples (=15%) had both abnormal urea and creatinine. Within less than five years duration of hypertension; 25% and 23% of the patients had abnormal urea and creatinine level, respectively. Insignificant association of neither the abnormal level of urea nor the creatinine with hypertension complications was reported (P >- 0.09), however 36% and 35% of the hypertensive who were not previously diagnosed with kidney disease had an abnormal/elevated urea/creatinine level, respectively. More than thirty five percent of the hypertensives had urea or creatinine measurements above normal levels. Such abnormal level was reported in less than five years duration of hypertension and were also observed in 36% and 35% of the hypertensive who were not previously diagnosed with kidney disease, which indicates an uncontrolled hypertension, lack of awareness of disease complications, thereby reflects the importance of the routine measurement of urea and creatinine.

This study was aimed to establish a simple, accurate, precise, robust and rapid reverse phase high performance liquid chromatographic method for the estimation of Furosemide in Furosemide injection diluted with normal saline and it was validated as per the parameters mentioned in the ICH guidelines such as system suitability, linearity, accuracy, precision, specificity, ruggedness and robustness and solution stability. The optimized chromatographic HPLC analysis was performed on Waters e2695 system equipped with Inertsil ODS-3V C18 column (250 cm x 150 mm; 5 um particle size), with a mixture of 1% glacial acetic acid and acetonitrile in the ratio of 50%:50% v/v as the mobile phase, at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection was performed at the wavelength of 272 nm and the retention time of Furosemide was found to be 7.03 min. The calibration plot gave linear relationship over the concentration range of 10-120 ug/mL with correlation coefficient of r2 = 0.9998. The percentage purity of Furosemide in the given formulation was found to be 103.56 +/- 0.6546. The amount of Furosemide in the given formulation for intraday and interday was found to be 102.45 +/- 0.2291 and 102.67 +/- 0.4041, respectively. The accuracy of the proposed method was determined by recovery studies and was found to be in the range of 100.14% to 101.01%. This indicates that there is no inteference was observed due to excipients used in formulation. The percentage of RSD was found to be less than 2 for all the parameters. All the impurities peak were separated well and no inteference were found with the retention time of Furosemide. The results of robustness, ruggedness and solution stability were found to be within the acceptance limit. Hence, the developed method was found to be simple, linear, accurate, precise, robust, rapid method for the analysis of Furosemide in Furosemide injection diluted with normal saline. In addition, the main feature of the developed method is lower run time with less solvent consumption.
POLÍTICAS PÚBLICAS DE ECONOMIA SOLIDÁRIA NA AMÉRICA LATINA
Authors: Silva Roberto Marinho Alves da , Silva Ronalda Barreto
Published: February 2022

Este artigo contém uma analise sobre avanços, limites e perspectivas contemporâneas das políticas públicas de economia solidária na América Latina. A recente expansão de estratégiaseconômicas alternativas de produção sustentável, de comércio justo, de finanças solidárias e de consumo ético e responsável, constituídas sob a forma de empreendimentos e redes solidárias, resultou na conquista da adesão de movimentos sociais e do apoio de governos de perfil popular e democrático. Porém, apesar de alguns avanços institucionais, a economia solidária tem sido incorporada pelos governos a partir de abordagens instrumentais de geração de trabalho e renda para superação da pobreza, restringindo seu potencial emancipatório. Nos últimos anos, o aprofundamento de políticas neoliberais ampliou ainda mais as restrições impostas a essas e outras políticas de caráter contra hegemônico.
OPORTUNIDADES E DESAFIOS PARA O DESENVOLVIMENTO DO AGROTURISMO NO MUNICÍPIO DE INHAMBANE EM MOÇAMBIQUE
Authors: Azevedo Hélsio Amiro Motany de Albuquerque
Published: February 2022

A agricultura, no município de Inhambane, é praticada por famílias localizadas em áreas rurais e a actividade turística é representada, maioritariamente, por investimento estrangeirodesconectado destas famílias. A realidade põe em questão o aspecto do desenvolvimento endógeno e contribui para a consolidação de perspectivas de cima para baixo, onde famílias ecomunidades em geral se tornam “espectadoras” das transformações dos respectivos territórios sem contribuirem para o seu desenvolvimento, contrariando a filosofia da Economia Solidaria. Considerando a possibilidade de integrar a agricultura familiar ao sector do turismo, buscou-se, neste artigo, avaliar se estão criadas as condições para o desenvolvimento do agroturismo em Inhambane, pontuando-se as oportunidades existentes e desafios. Reconhecendo que grande parte dos estabelecimentos turísticos e residentes ainda importam produtos agrícolas frescos da África do Sul, da cidade de Maputo e do distrito de Chókwè, há uma necessidade de mudar esse paradigma comercial, fazendo com que esses produtos sejam produzidos nas zonas húmidas do município e consequentemente reduzir a dependência externa, fato que fortaleceria a produção doméstica, melhorando a renda dos produtores. A metodologia baseou-se nos métodos e técnicas existentes nas ciências sociais, em métodos mistos de pesquisa, pois o tema desenvolvido abrange diversas áreas do conhecimento, como é o caso, por exemplo, das áreas de turismo, agricultura e economia. Constatou-se que o município possui potencial agrícola localizado próximo às planícies e em áreas próximas às lagoas naturais e pequenos riachos que ali ocorrem e que existem potencialidades e possibilidade de integrar agricultura familiar e turismo, o que resultará em iniciativas de agroturismo; embora tenha sido observado que o potencial não é explorado para agregar mais renda aos produtores locais e consequentemente reduzir a dependência externa e fortalecer a produção doméstica de produtos agrícolas. Assim, conclui-se que há uma oportunidade de estabelecer conexões entre agricultura e turismo, pois é uma maneira das comunidades valorizarem sua cultura e o ambiente rural. Os desafios para a concretização estão relacionados a limitada infra-estrutura de apoio, pouco conhecimento da área hoteleira e limitações para realização da promoção da oferta. Uma das evidências do potencial encontrado é a gastronomia típica das comunidades rurais, o conhecimento local e a própria cultura. Contudo, o potencial agrícola das áreas rurais e a combinação com as características das comunidades rurais não são incorporadas à produção turística, abrindo-se a oportunidades para inserir a filosofia da economia solidária no processo de desenvolvimento agro-turístico.

Comparison of Clinical and Radiological Characteristics of Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis in Older and Young people
Authors: Jung Won , Lee Kyung-Eun , Suh Bong-Jik
Published: February 2022

Background and Objectives:

The relatively high prevalence of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) osteoarthritis (OA) in older people increases the necessity to investigate the specific characteristics of TMJ-OA in this particular population. This study aimed to analyze the longitudinal changes in clinical and radiological characteristics of TMJ-OA in older people.

Methods:

We retrospectively analyzed the clinical features and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of 76 participants with TMJ-OA. Participants were classified into two groups according to age. The older people group included 33 participants over 50 years of age, and the control group included 43 participants in their 15-29 years. We analyzed the differences in clinical features and the distribution of destructive bony changes on CBCT images between groups.

Results:

The duration of pain was significantly shorter in the older people group (P = .046); however, the treatment duration was significantly longer in the older people group (P = .001). There was a significant difference in the distribution of destructive bony features between groups (P = .005). In the older people group, “three or more features” (36.3%) were the most common, whereas in the control group, “erosion” (44.2%) was the most common. After treatment, there was little improvement in the frequency of “erosion” in the older people group. There was a significant difference in the proportion of erosion after treatment between the groups (P = .033).

Conclusion:

In older people with TMJ-OA, active treatment to effectively induce condylar remodeling should be considered.
Multimodal Analgesia Transversus Abdominis Plane Block-Ketorolac Combination being Superior to Paracetamol-Ketorolac as Postoperative Pain Management after Cesarean Section in an Indonesian Hospital
Authors: Isngadi . , Basuki Djudjuk R. , Nofiyanto Eko , Laksono Ristiawan M.
Published: February 2022

Aim:

This study aimed to compare the outcome of multimodal analgesia using transversus abdominis plane block combined with ketorolac and multimodal analgesia oral paracetamol combined with ketorolac in postoperative pain after cesarean section.

Background:

Post-caesarean section pain resulted in prolonged recovery time, inhibited early breastfeeding initiation, and prolonged hospitalization. Multimodal analgesia is an important component of post-cesarean section pain management but has not been established in many Indonesian hospitals.

Methods:

This study was a retrospective, observational analytic study on 46 patients who received low-dose sub-arachnoid block anesthesia. A total of 24 subjects received bilateral transversus abdominis plane block employing ultrasonography-guided lateral approach, with Ropivacaine 0.25% in a total volume of 30cc combined with intravenous ketorolac 30 mg/8 h (Group B). A total of 22 subjects received oral paracetamol 500 mg/6 h combined with intravenous ketorolac 30 mg/8 h (Group A). Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), length of hospitalization, and mobilization time were analyzed using the T-test at a significance level of p<0.05 (confidence interval of 95%).

Results:

The NRS and mean time to start mobilization of patients who received transversus abdominis plane block combined with ketorolac were significantly better than patients who received paracetamol combined with ketorolac (p<0.05). There was no significant difference in the length of hospitalization between the two techniques (p>0.05). Both modalities resulted in improvement in pain intensity over the mild pain range.

Conclusion:

Multimodal analgesia transversus abdominis plane block combined with ketorolac is superior to paracetamol combined with ketorolac for postoperative pain management after cesarean section.
Interpretations of Innovation: The intersection of technological advancement and psychosis (Preprint)
Authors: Higgins Oliver , Chalup Stephan K , Short Brooke L , Wilson Rhonda L
Published: February 2022

BACKGROUND

The prominence of technology in modern life cannot be understated. However, for some people these innovations or their related plausible advancements, can be associated with perceptual misinterpretation and/or incorporation into delusional concepts.

OBJECTIVE

This paper aims to explore the intersection of technological advancement and experiencing psychosis. We present a discussion about the explanation seeking that incorporates the concept, that for some people, of technological innovation becoming intertwined with delusional symptoms over the past 100 years.

METHODS

A longitudinal review of the literature was conducted to synthesise and draw these concepts together, mapping them to a timeline that aligns computing science and healthcare expertise and presents the significant technological changes of the modern era charted against mental health milestones and reports of technology-related delusions.

RESULTS

It is possible for technology to be incorporated in the content of delusions with evidence supporting a link between the rate of technological change, the content of delusions and the use of technology as a way of seeking an explanation. Moreover, analysis suggests a need to better understand how innovations may impact the mental health of people at risk of psychosis and other mental health conditions.

CONCLUSIONS

Clinical experts and lived experience experts need to be informed about and collaborate with future research and development of technology, specifically artificial intelligence and machine learning, early in the development cycle. This concurs with other artificial intelligence research recommendations calling for design attention to the development and implementation of technological innovation applied in a mental health context.
Certificado de Español como Lengua Adicional (CELA)
Authors: Campos Eva
Published: February 2022

La motivación que existe actualmente en el mundo por el intercambio en los ámbitos comercial, educativo y profesional como consecuencia lógica de la globalización, ha generado una mayor necesidad de comunicación a nivel internacional con repercusiones obvias en el área de enseñanza-aprendizaje de lenguas, revolucionando de manera acelerada todos y cada uno de sus componentes: diseño de programas y de materiales, formación de profesores, uso de la tecnología con fines académicos y evaluación.

Hoy, más que nunca, se presentan oportunidades de movilidad de un país a otro con fines profesionales o educativos, las distancias ya no se miran como una barrera. Existen convenios entre instituciones educativas a nivel internacional por medio de los cuales se validan en un país los estudios realizados en otro. De la misma manera, existen convenios que garantizan el mutuo reconoci-miento de certificados de lenguas.

En Europa se promueve el aprendizaje de lenguas diversas a lo largo de toda la vida como una prueba de superación personal. En América, un certificado de dominio de alguna lengua extranjera abre las puertas para estudiar o para trabajar en una institución de prestigio y garantiza, en alguna medida, la movilidad social. Los certificados de dominio de lenguas extranjeras adquieren cada día más importancia a nivel mundial.

En el presente trabajo se describe un modelo de examen para certificar el grado de dominio del español y se describe el proceso de su elaboración.
La perspectiva del hablante en la enseñanza de la gramática
Authors: Granda Beatriz
Published: February 2022

A partir de la consideración de la lengua como instrumento de comunicación, la enseñanza de la gramática (como L1 o L2) se aborda en su contexto comunicativo. Los textos “auténticos” como diálogos, relatos, conversaciones, pasan a formar parte de los materiales de enseñanza y se deja atrás la presentación de la gramática al nivel de la oración.

En los textos tomados de periódicos, revistas, programas de radio, que se usan de manera cotidiana en las clases, se encuentran ejemplos de la lengua que no se adecuan a las reglas gramaticales y generan confusión en los alumnos. Frente a esto, se toman diferentes actitudes por parte de los maestros: se insiste en el uso “adecuado” de las formas o se adopta una posición más flexible y se explican estos ejemplos como parte del “uso” de la lengua. Una u otra explicación deja insatisfechos a los alumnos porque queda la impresión de que se “debe” hablar de una manera pero se “hace” de otra.

En este trabajo se muestran algunos ejemplos tomados de los materiales de enseñanza, así como de textos del periódico Reforma, cuyo uso no es “adecuado” según las reglas de la gramática tradicional y se analizan a partir de un enfoque discursivo textual, que toma en cuenta elementos de su entorno lingüístico, más allá de la frontera de la oración, que explica su uso.
Refranes para la gente culta
Authors: Escobar Hernández José Carlos
Published: February 2022

¡Qué título más desconcertante y atractivo el de esta nota!

Y es que, generalmente, se define al refrán como un dicho “tradicional”, algo que, por pura mala suerte, se ha convertido en un término opuesto a “culto”, no obstante se haya dicho que contiene:

a) una “advertencia”, como las que suelen dar quienes ocupan un lugar reconocido como autoridad,

b) una “enseñanza”, como si tuviera la capacidad propia de un erudito o los conocimientos de un educador,

c) o bien un “consejo”, como el que suelen dar quienes han logrado la  sabiduría.

Resulta, igualmente desconcertante, nuestra tendencia adicional a relacionar lo “tradicional” con lo “típico” y lo “popular”, siendo que “culto” —un término igualmente tradicional, y cada día más popular conforme nuestro pueblo se instruye— es por su parte sinónimo de “ilustrado” y “sabio”, ¡que coincidencia!

Pero bueno, como sea y muy a pesar de lo que la Academia o las etiquetas forzadas dicten, al final la influencia de los refranes es tan pedestre que, lo mismo que el aguardiente pueden y suelen ser capaces de embriagar igual tanto a un embajador que al mismísimo presidente, aunque a pesar de ser del dominio de una comunidad lingüística asociada con todo lo que ha sido catalogado como “inculto”. En el mundo académico, los refranes no suelen ser asociados con el concepto de lo “culto” en general, quizá por un respeto a alguna tradición paralela: porque admiramos y respetamos mucho más todo lo que nos viene de fuera y no resulta ajeno, por más que los de la alta alcurnia hayan acordado —muy benévolamente— concederle el titulo de “sabiduría popular”. 

Por principio, nadie se ha preocupado por cultivar o cultivarse en el manejo de los dichos y los refranes y tal vez por eso se encuentran en peligro de extensión. Como vemos, resulta innegable que, aun cuando sólo sea por una mera costumbre irreflexiva, la palabra “refranes” choca con la palabra “culta”, pero hay que recorder que esto no sucede cuando los usamos en casa, con nuestros amigos o en nuestras relaciones más cercanas, sino únicamente cuando tomamos conciencia de que lo hacemos por la etiqueta que hemos endilgado a estos vocablos, resultado histórico no sólo de la Conquista —que ya muy desgastada está, aunque no del todo—, sino de nuestra sempiterna capacidad humana y gusto por etiquetar, diferenciar y precisar cuanto se nos pone enfrente, si bien paradójicamente el lenguaje mismo nos ha capturado en su propia manera de ver las cosas.

Si bien el lenguaje nos hizo evolucionar hacia la clase de los sapiens sapiens se nos olvida que constantemente debemos enfrentarnos a la trampa que nuestro propio lenguaje impone a nuestra mente cuando define y fija de una manera limitada nuestra concepción general del mundo, o mejor dicho, del mundo general que nos rodea.

La impronta de Vicente Riva Palacio en las exposiciones de arte mexicano
Authors: Molina P. Carlos A.
Published: February 2022

Estas páginas discurren sobre el origen y persistencia de dos maneras de pen-sar el concepto de Museo Nacional en México. Busco apuntar a las influencias que puedan hallarse en diversas puestas en escena cuyo asunto era la cultura mexicana entre 1877 y 1952. Propongo que dichas configuraciones responden a dos influjos discursivos; uno de índole histórica y narrativa, el otro formalista y estetizante. Contrasto entonces el pormenor de etapas para el desarrollo de la patria con otra preocupación que está en los valores plásticos como directrices para el trabajo expositivo. La intención es señalar a tres instantes en que la práctica en el museo se revisa y se transforma.
“¡Qué cuadro tan triste por cierto, presentaría la nación mexicana, cuando todas las sectas y todas las religiones, por monstruosas que sean, se disputasen en ella el campo!”
Authors: Fernández Fernández Íñigo
Published: February 2022

Uno de los aspectos más importantes en el proceso de secularización que atravesó México en el siglo XIX fue, sin lugar a dudas, el de la lucha por el establecimiento de la libertad de cultos. En el presente texto aspiramos tanto a dar una visión panorámica de los principales argumentos que la prensa liberal dio a favor de ella y de aquellos esgrimidos por la conservadora en su contra, como a presentar las discusiones que en la materia sustentaron ambos tipos de publicaciones. Para tal fin consultamos la prensa capitalina a partir de 1833, cuando se aplicó por vez primera en México una legislación de orden liberal, y hasta 1857, año en el que se promulgó la primera constitución que antepuso los derechos de los ciudadanos a la organización del Estado.
La enseñanza del español en Estados Unidos
Authors: Pérez Rodríguez Fernando
Published: February 2022

En esta comunicación se contempla la situación actual en torno a la enseñanza del español en Estados Unidos, particularmente en la ciudad de Los Ángeles, California, donde una sede de la UNAM se encarga de brindar cursos de lengua a la comunidad. Se señala la necesidad de diversificar y dirigir la oferta de cursos de español tanto a los no nativos como a aquellos hispanos que lo han adquirido sin una formación escolarizada, en un contexto bilingüe. Asimismo se considera la rápida expansión que ha tenido y tendrá el español, lo que ha provocado ya una creciente demanda de profesores de español dentro del sistema estatal de educación primaria, secundaria y preparatoria. Este hecho no ha sido atendido aún por la UNAM, que cuenta ya con cursos dirigidos a la formación de profesores de español, ni por otras instituciones mexicanas o latinoamericanas, sino por el gobierno español.

La producción del lenguaje oral y escrito por hablantes no nativos, en una situación de enseñanza-aprendizaje, con frecuencia presenta “errores”, que podrían equipararse a lo que en neuropsicolingüística se les denomina alteraciones del habla.

En el ámbito de la enseñanza del español como segunda lengua, las dificultades a las que posiblemente podrían estar expuestos los profesores se relacionan con la maduración cerebral de los individuos. Este proceso morfológico-funcional influye con la formación y desarrollo de las funciones involucradas con la adquisición de una L2.

El propósito de este artículo es mostrar el impacto y la percepción de la Historia de la vejez durante el Porfiriato (1876-1911) entre los estudiantes del Centro de Enseñanza para Extranjeros (CEPE). Subrayo que como metodología histórica, la historia de la vejez es una poderosa y novedosa herramienta en la enseñanza de la Historia. Siguiendo esta idea, en primer lugar discuto la historiografía sobre el tema que nos permite entender el alcance de los estudios sobre la historia de la vejez y del envejecimiento; en segundo, presento un breve análisis de la historia de la vejez durante el periodo relacionado con la asistencia a los viejos, la perspectiva médica y las representaciones literarias de la vejez; finalmente muestro algunas experiencias de los estudiantes sobre esta metodología, sus opiniones sobre ella y sobre su propio proceso de envejecimiento.
¿La enseñanza del arte o el arte nos enseña?
Authors: Wiater Aleksander
Published: February 2022

El objetivo del presente artículo es un análisis del estímulo iconográfico en la enseñanza de idiomas. El autor estudia las imágenes que, desde su perspectiva, pueden despertar interés dentro del aula de lengua extranjera. Se confirma que la educación a través del arte contribuye al desarrollo cognitivo, afectivo y emocional de los individuos. Además gracias al uso del arte se estimula la imaginación, la creatividad, la expresión auténtica e individual del alumno. Por lo tanto, se hace una reflexión sobre los elementos particulares de las imágenes mismas que incitan a dicha pluralidad y diversidad de percepciones, que provocan el surgimiento de diversas opiniones y valoraciones, y que, finalmente, favorecen el pensamiento divergente y abstracto para suscitar un verdadero compromiso y un auténtico involucramiento personal en la expresión oral.

Published: February 2022

The 1945 Constitution does contain the idea of political democracy and at the same time economic democracy. That is, in the highest power holder in our country is the people, both in the political and economic fields. All political and economic resources are controlled by sovereign people. However, in a democratic system built certainly not all of them are directly controlled by the people. The purpose of this research  is  to formulate the concept of populist economic law based on economic law in Indonesia and to understand the legal comparison between Islamic economic system and conventional economic system in the development of economic law in Indonesia.

Abstract : This articel aims to examine the Psychotherapy Aspect of a servant in his prayer on Qasidah Samih Al- Qaseem “’Ana muta’assif". In the beginning of Qasidah he starts by calling his God and then complains about his suffering.  The poet describes that he really needs help and forgiveness from his God so that the suffering he experiences disappears. And he considers his sin to be the cause of the suffering. This is a new study in literature by looking at the psychological aspects of a servant which is studied with Islamic Psychotherapy Theory which is divided into four sides, namely morals, mental, spiritual, and physical.

Abstrak : Makalah ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji Aspek Psikoterapi seorang hamba dalam munajatnya pada Qasidah Samih Al-Qaseem “’Ana Muta’assif” . Dalam permulaan Qasidah ia memulai dengan memanggil Tuhannya dan kemudian mengadu tentang penderitaannya. Penyair menggambarkan bahwa ia sangat membutuhkan pertolongan dan ampunan dari Tuhannya supaya derita yang dialaminya sirna. Dan ia mengganggap bahwa dosanyalah penyebab dari datangnya derita itu. Hal ini menjadi telaah baru dalam sastra dengan melihat aspek psikologi seorang hamba yang dikaji dengan Teori Psikoterapi Islam yang terbagi pada empat sisi yaitu akhlak, mental, spiritual, dan fisik.
Model of the process of creating and issuing cartographic products
Authors: Chernov I.V. , Yakunin V.I.
Published: February 2022

The article deals with the actual issue of arranging the process and the system of cartographic support. The authors generalize production and publication of cartographic products only. Within the framework of issuing, the process of production and publishing cartographic products is considered as functioning of a purposeful cartographic support system. During these studies, the vector of production process quality indicators results and publishing cartographic products is justifi ed. The proposed indicators enable predicting the results of the process under consideration. Based on the vector of quality indicators, the operational functional connecting the performance indicator with the cost of resources and time is justifi ed. The purposeful process’ of producing and publishing cartographic products deterministic model is proposed. With its use the simulation was performed. The results help determining the mapping support system contents based on the tasks set.

There is information on colleagues of S. Y. Belykh and fragments of his daughter’s recollections.
Por que a espacialidade é mais subversiva do que a temporalidade
Authors: Guimarães Bruno
Published: February 2022

Ao comentar o texto de Miguel Gally sobre as artes espaciais e a politização que se dá através das obras de arte que exploram o espaço, este artigo gostaria de destacar o potencial disruptivo das heterotopias de Michel Foucault. Em favor dos argumentos de Gally demonstrarei como uma conferência de Foucault sobre Outros espaços, de 1967, confirma que a espacialidade é mais subversiva que a temporalidade, mas gostaria também de avaliar os limites dessa tese. Partindo de sua pesquisa sobre as artes espaciais, comentando o modo como a ocupação dos espaços promove a heterotopia social e política, pretendo questionar a exemplaridade paradigmática que a obra Parangolés, de Hélio Oiticica, assume na derrubada de preconceitos sociais, barreiras de grupos e classes. Finalmente, pretendo discutir a ideia de recepção e de comunicação espacial, questionando os limites da própria ideia de comunicação, a partir do papel social que as vanguardas artísticas exercem na sociedade.
Walter Benjamin e Georges Didi-Huberman: um possível reencontro entre a história da arte e a filosofia
Authors: Palhares Taisa
Published: February 2022

O texto busca indagar qual a relação entre história da arte e filosofia a partir do pensamento de Walter Benjamin e Georges Didi-Huberman. O fio condutor será o conceito de anacronismo histórico e sua relação com a montagem enquanto forma dialética de conectar obras de arte e imagens. Por fim, nota-se que, ao retomar o pensamento benjaminiano, Didi-Huberman ressalta a tarefa política subjacente à atividade do historiador da arte.
Model selection isn't causal inference
Authors: Arif Suchinta , MacNeil M. Aaron
Published: February 2022

Ecologists often rely on observational data to understand causal
relationships. Although observational causal inference methodologies
exist, model selection based on information criterion (e.g., AIC)
remains a common approach used to understand ecological relationships.
However, such approaches are meant for predictive inference and is not
appropriate for drawing causal conclusions. Here, we highlight the
distinction between predictive and causal inference and show how model
selection techniques can lead to biased causal estimates. Instead, we
encourage ecologists to apply the backdoor criterion, a graphical rule
that can be used to determine causal relationships across observational
studies.

Aim: This prospective study aims to investigate the factors influencing
voriconazole trough concentration (Cmin), develop a population
pharmacokinetics (PPK) model and recommend an appropriate voriconazole
dosing regimen for children with hematological malignancies. Methods:
Prospectively enrolled a total of 70 children aged <18 years
and 149 samples. The factors influencing voriconazole Cmin were analyzed
by univariate analysis and multiple linear regression analysis.
Nonlinear mixed effects modeling (NONMEM) was applied to establish the
PPK model. Dosage simulation based on albumin (ALB) levels and CYP2C19
genotype. Results: Multiple linear regression results demonstrated that
route of administration, ALB and concomitant administration with
glucocorticoid (GLU) and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) were significant
factors of voriconazole Cmin. A one-compartment model could best
describe the pharmacokinetics of voriconazole. The extensive
metabolizers (EM), ALB were significant covariates of clearance (CL).
The typical value of CL, the volume of distribution (V) and oral
bioavailability (F) were 1.52 L/h, 35.7 L and 0.909, respectively. The
recommended dosing regimens for EM patients with ALB level of
20.0~35.0 g/L, 35.1~45.0 g/L and
45.1~55.0 g/L were4, 8 and 12 mg/kg intravenously or
orally twice daily, respectively, and were 2, 4 and 7 mg/kg by
intravenous or oral administration twice daily for non-EM. Conclusion:
We found that route of administration, ALB and co-administration of GLU
and PPI had quantitative relationships with voriconazole Cmin. The
combination of CYP2C19 genotype and ALB levels to determine the initial
dosing regimen of voriconazole could provide a reference for
individualized treatment in children with hematological malignancies.
