Authors: Pamies-Berenguer Marcial , Gomariz-Vicente María-Ángeles , Cascales-Martínez Antonia
Published: July 2023

La transferencia de la formación del profesorado contempla la capacidad de generalizar los aprendizajes al puesto docente. En dicho proceso de generalización la identificación de escenarios de aplicación y las decisiones sobre la aplicación adoptadas juegan un papel relevante. El objetivo de la investigación es explorar las asociaciones entre los factores condicionantes de la transferencia y las actividades de identificación de escenarios de aplicación y la toma de decisiones sobre ésta en el contexto de los programas formativos para el fomento de hábito lector del alumnado. Los participantes fueron 227 docentes en activo de enseñanza no universitaria. Se determinaron dos modelos logísticos multinomiales que permitieron estudiar las asociaciones mediante el análisis de los odss ratio. Los resultados muestran que el factor “Diseño y desarrollo de la formación” se asocia positivamente tanto con la capacidad de identificar situaciones de aplicación como con la decisión de realizar una aplicación efectiva. Por su parte, el factor “Locus de control externo” se asocia positivamente con la toma de decisiones sobre la realización de una aplicación efectiva. En conclusión, se han identificado dimensiones sobre las que diseñar acciones de intervención para mejorar la transferencia de la formación permanente encaminada al fomento de la lectura.

AIM: To investigate the expression and effect of histone deacetylase 7 (HDAC7) in human retinal microvascular endothelial cells (HRMECs) under high glucose condition and related mechanism, and the expression of HDAC7 in the retinal tissue in diabetic rats.
METHODS: The expression of HDAC7 in HRMECs under high glucose and the retinal tissue from normal or diabetic rats were detected with immunohistochemistry and Western blot. LV-shHDAC7 HRMECs were used to study the effect of HDAC7 on cell activities. Cell count kit-8 (CCK-8), 5-ethynyl-2’-deoxyuridine (EdU), flow cytometry, scratch test, Transwell test and tube formation assay were used to examine the ability of cell proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis. Finally, a preliminary exploration of its mechanism was performed by Western blot.
RESULTS: The expression of HDAC7 was both up-regulated in retinal tissues of diabetic rats and high glucose-treated HRMECs. Down-regulation of HDAC7 expression significantly reduced the ability of proliferation, migration, and tube formation, and reversed the high glucose-induced high expression of CDK1/Cyclin B1 and vascular endothelial growth factor in high glucose-treated HRMECs.
CONCLUSION: High glucose can up-regulate the expression of HDAC7 in HRMECs. Down-regulation of HDAC7 can inhibit HRMECs activities. HDAC7 is proposed to be involved in pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy and a therapeutic target.

AIM: To report the clinical characteristics, treatment and outcomes of active syphilitic uveitis in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive patients and compare them with the previously published data.
METHODS: Retrospective analysis of the case series from an infectious disease center in southern China was conducted. Comprehensive review of previously published cases of HIV positive syphilitic uveitis was conducted using the PubMed and Web of Science databases and the references listed in the identified articles.
RESULTS: Twelve HIV positive patients with active syphilitic uveitis were collected. All were male, with age of 36.3y (range 27 to 53y). Five (41.7%) had a history of syphilis, and three of them had received anti-syphilis treatment. Ocular manifestations included corneal epithelial defect (13%), complicated cataract (17.4%), vitreous opacity (82.6%), optic disc edema (26.1%), macular edema (30.4%), neuro-retinitis (43.5%), and retinal hemorrhage (26.1%). After standardized syphilitic treatment, intraocular inflammation was reduced and vision improved in all cases. The literature review summarizes 105 previously reported cases of HIV positive syphilitic uveitis. High serum rapid plasma regain (RPR) titers may be associated with severe uveitis and poor vision. Treatment with penicillin, ceftriaxone sodium, or penicillin plus benzylpenicillin instead of using benzylpenicillin alone can significantly improve best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in HIV positive ocular syphilis patients.
CONCLUSION: For HIV positive syphilitic uveitis patients, prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment and follow-up are paramount. In our series, the clinical manifestations are diverse. Syphilis patients treated by penicillin G or long-acting penicillin before may still develop syphilitic uveitis. Patients who relapse after long-term penicillin treatment can still benefit from penicillin G.

AIM: To investigate thickness characteristics and vascular plexuses in retinas with reticular pseudodrusen (RPD) as an early detection strategy for age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
METHODS: This retrospective study included 24 subjects (33 eyes) with RPD and 25 heathy control subjects (34 eyes). The superficial capillary plexus (SCP) and the deep capillary plexus (DCP) of the retinal posterior poles were investigated with optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). Retinal thicknesses and vessel densities were analyzed statistically.
RESULTS: The general retinal thicknesses of RPD eyes were significantly decreased (95%CI -14.080, -0.655; P=0.032). The vessel densities of DCP in RPD eyes were significantly increased in the global (95%CI 1.067, 7.312; P=0.027), parafoveal (95%CI 0.417, 5.241; P=0.022), and perifoveal (95%CI 0.181, 6.842; P=0.039) quadrants. However, the vessel densities of the SCP were rarely increased in the eyes with RPD.
CONCLUSION: The thinning of retinas in the RPD group suggests a reduction in the number of cells. Additionally, the increased vessel density of the DCP in retinas with RPD indicates a greater demand for blood supply, possibly due to the hypoxia induced RPD compensation caused by RPD in the outer retina. This study highlights the pathological risks associated with RPD and emphasizes the importance of early intervention to retard the progression of AMD.

Published: July 2023

AIM: To evaluate the effectiveness, safety, predictability, precision and changes of higher-order aberrations (HOAs) on corneal front surface of selective corneal wavefront aberration-guided femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (CW-FS-LASIK) in patients with high myopia 1-year postoperatively.
METHODS: Totally 74 eyes of 37 patients with high myopia or myopic astigmatism in both the eyes who underwent the CW-FS-LASIK procedure in Xi’an Gaoxin Hospital from January 2021 to June 2021 were included. The changes of uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), spherical equivalent refraction (SER), astigmatism, HOAs and Strehl ratio (SR) on the anterior surface of the cornea after 1y of the surgery were analyzed.
RESULTS: At postoperative 1y, the UDVA (logMAR) of 74 eyes (100%) reached 0 or better, including 0 in 8 eyes (10.81%), -0.1 in 45 eyes (60.81%), and -0.2 in 21 eyes (28.38%). The effectiveness index was 1.29±0.134. There was no decrease in postoperative BCVA compared with preoperative BCVA in all patients. Postoperative BCVA was the same in 44 eyes (59.46%) as preoperative BCVA, increased by 1 line in 23 eyes (31.08%) and increased by 2 lines in 7 eyes (9.46%) compared with preoperative BCVA. The safety index was 1.11±0.159. The estimated corrected SER before surgery was (-7.76±1.21) D, and the actual corrected SER was (-7.83±1.25) D (Y=0.9811X+0.2156, R2=0.9084). There was a high correlation between the estimated corrected SER and the actual corrected SER. The postoperative SER in 74 eyes (100%) was within ±0.75 D. The postoperative astigmatism of all was within -0.75 D to 0. Root mean square (RMS) HOAs of spherical aberration and SR within 5 mm of the corneal front surface were all increased compared with those before operation (P<0.01). The total coma, horizontal coma and vertical coma were all decreased compared with those before operation (P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in horizontal trefoil and vertical trefoil compared with preoperative ones (P>0.05).
CONCLUSION: Selective CW-FS-LASIK for correction of high myopia is effective, safe, predictive, and accurate. For patients with preoperative RMS HOAs over 0.25 defocus equivalent, postoperative coma aberration can be significantly reduced, and SR value can be increased, thus corneal imaging quality can be improved.

Published: July 2023

AIM: To compare the subjective refraction data with non-cycloplegic auto-refraction findings in the geriatric population above 60 years of age according to the different crystalline lens conditions.
METHODS: This report is a part of the Tehran Geriatric Eye Study (TGES) that was conducted from January 2019 to January 2020 on elderly population 60 years of age and above in Tehran. The samples were selected by multi-stage stratified random cluster sampling. Of 3791 individual invitees, 3310 (response rate: 87.3%) participated in this study. All study participants underwent non-cycloplegic auto-refraction (auto-refractometer/keratometer Nidek ARK-510) and subjective refraction.
RESULTS: Regarding the sphere, eyes with mixed cataract had the worst limits of agreement (LoA: -1.24 to 0.87) and the best agreement was related to the pseudophakic eyes (LoA: -0.83 to 0.54). The highest (0.27±0.31 D) and lowest (0.21±0.27 D) differences between the two methods regarding the cylinder power were observed in eyes with cortical cataract and normal eyes, respectively. The worst LoA between the two methods in measuring the cylinder power was related to the eyes with mixed cataract (LoA: -0.44 to 0.96). Regarding the J0 (horizontal/vertical components of astigmatism), the mean values of J0 obtained by auto-refraction were tended more toward against the rule direction in all crystalline lens conditions, and the two methods had the greatest difference in cortical cataract cases (0.05±0.17 D). Regarding the J45 (oblique components of astigmatism), the lowest (0±0.11 D) and highest (-0.01±0.12 D) differences were observed in normal eyes and eyes with cortical cataract, respectively.
CONCLUSION: The auto-refractometer/keratometer Nidek ARK-510 results in the elderly with different phakic and pseudophakic conditions do not correspond well with subjective refraction findings. This discrepancy in spherical findings is more pronounced in individuals with mixed cataract than in other cases.

Published: July 2023

AIM: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ultrasound cycloplasty (UCP) for glaucoma.
METHODS: A comprehensive search of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases was used to select studies met the inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis was performed by Review Manager and StataCorp LLC.
RESULTS: A total of 19 articles met the inclusion criteria. Overall, UCP is effective and safe in the glaucoma treatment, the risk ratio (RR) of the success rate was 2.28 (95%CI, 1.82-2.84). After UCP, patients had a significant reduction in intraocular pressure (IOP; mm Hg), the weighted mean difference (WMD) was 11.39 (95%CI, 9.88-12.90). In addition, UCP brings fewer postoperative complications with RR of 0.30 (95%CI, 0.19-0.49). Most of the complications were short-term and mild. Postoperatively, patients’ use of IOP-lowering medications reduced, the standardized mean difference (SMD) was 0.78 (95%CI, 0.40-1.17). However, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA; logMAR) did not have obvious improvement after UCP, the WMD was 0.01 (95%CI, -0.06-0.09). This procedure does provide painfulness relief, with RR of 3.06 (95%CI, 1.95-4.81).
CONCLUSION: UCP is effective and safe for suitable glaucoma. It can effectively decrease IOP in glaucoma patients, reduce the patients’ dependence on IOP-lowering medications after surgery, relief the painfulness and has fewer long-term or severe postoperative complications, but the BCVA did not improve much.

Authors:   State Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology, Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, Guangzhou 510060, Guangdong Province, China, Chen Ming-Hao
Published: July 2023

AIM: To assess metrics of diffusion tensor imagining (DTI) in evaluating microstructural abnormalities of horizontal extraocular muscles (EOM) in esotropia.
METHODS: Six adult concomitant esotropia patients, 5 unilateral abducent paralysis patients and 2 healthy volunteers were enrolled. Conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and DTI were performed on all subjects using 3T MR scanner. Fractional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD), axial diffusivity (AD), and radial diffusivity (RD) of medial and lateral rectus muscles were measured and compared between patients group and control group.
RESULTS: Medial rectus MD and RD within the adducted eye of concomitant patients was significantly greater than that in unilateral abducent paralysis patients (0.259×10-2 mm2/s vs 0.207×10-2 mm2/s, P=0.014; 0.182×10-2 mm2/s vs 0.152×10-2 mm2/s, P=0.017). Both strabismus patients showed a significantly decreased MD and AD than that obtained in normal controls for lateral rectus muscles (P<0.05). Medial rectus MD of the adducted eye in concomitant strabismus patients was significantly decreased than that in healthy controls (0.259×10-2 mm2/s vs 0.266×10-2 mm2/s, P=0.010). Lateral rectus AD of the adducted eye in concomitant strabismus patients was significantly decreased as compared with that in healthy controls (0.515×10-2 mm2/s vs 0.593×10-2 mm2/s, P=0.013). No statistically significant differences were present between the adducted and fixating eyes in concomitant strabismus patients.
CONCLUSION: DTI represents a feasible technique to assess tissue characteristics of EOM. The effects of eye position changes on DTI parameters are subtle. Decreased MD and RD could be evidence for remodeling of the medial rectus muscle contracture. Lower medial and lateral recuts MD of concomitant esotropia patients indicates a thinner fibrous structure of the EOM. Lower MD and AD should be general character of esotropia.
KEY DETERMINANTS OF GLOBAL LEGAL INSTITUTIONS (PHILOSOPHICAL ASPECT)
Authors: Kharchenko Julia , Kharchenko Serhii
Published: July 2023

Abstract. It is confirmed that, in the modern global society, a certain general image of legal institutions has been formed, which, being a "superimposed" model adjusts other existing models to suit it. The “legal institution ”performs its classical function for regulating social relations, enshrined in legal acts of various levels. The aim of this study is the explication of "global legal institutions" in the framework of modern socio-philosophical and philosophical-legal discourse and conceptualization of the key determinants of their development. The key task is to comprehend the phenomenon of global legal institutions and its impact on the modern global legal society. The sociophilosophical and philosophical-legal methodological principles made it possible to reveal the connections of global legal institutions with other phenomena of law, to fix the coherence of the formulated and codified legal norms with the basic ideas and moral goals underlying them. It is proved that the key determinants of global legal institutions are: a reflection of the global system of law in terms of its structure, as well as the logic of its development. Global legal institutions can be formed at the junction of various supranational entities, associations, unions, and alliances as a set of legal norms governing relations within these entities. The conclusions prove that the key determinants of global legal institutions are the legal regulation of norms and protocols due to the presence of many global dissimilar legal systems; the asymmetry of the norms of legal liability, where the theoretical and practical models of legal liability often do not correlate due to the complexity of the design of an integral global legal system.
ПРОБЛЕМА СОЦІАЛЬНОЇ ВІДПОВІДАЛЬНОСТІ В СИСТЕМІ «ЛЮДИНА – ПРИРОДА»

У статті розглядається проблематика соціальної відповідальності в системі «людина – природа». Наголошуєтьсяна поглибленні екологічної кризи в умовах глобалізації. Акцентується увага на тому, що в глобальних умовах соціальнавідповідальність у системі «людина – природа» пов’язана з безпекою природокористування та спрямована на досягненняоптимальної взаємодії суспільства і природи. Оскільки в сучасний період об’єктом соціальної відповідальності стає вся біосфера, людство перетворюється на колективного суб’єкта відповідальності, що потребує формування особливих екоцентричних ініціативних форм персональної відповідальності, які ґрунтуються на засадах екологічного імперативу.

У статті досліджується контркультура в контексті проблеми соціальної відповідальності людства передприродою. Глобалізаційні процеси культурно-цивілізаційного розвитку супроводжуються суперечностями, на фоні яких іфункціонує масовий інтернаціональний соціокультурний феномен – контркультура. Культурно-цивілізаційний розвитоксуспільства створює умови для формування та появи нових тенденцій у функціонуванні контркультури. Виникає значнакількість різноманітних угруповань, що базуються на різних системах цінностей, які обстоюють різні, часто абсолютнопротилежні, погляди. Проте спільним є представлення контркультури як екологічної модальності культури, спрямованоїна коеволюційну модернізацію сучасної цивілізації. Контркультуру можливо розглядати у вигляді діалектичного механізмукультурних новацій, що стимулюють історичний розвиток цивілізації. І це універсалістське розуміння контркультурирозкриває її філософський сенс і визначає її культурологічний зміст, про що й ідеться в статті.

КУЛЬТУРА ЯК СПОСІБ ВЗАЄМОЗВ’ЯЗКУ СУСПІЛЬСТВА З ПРИРОДОЮ
Authors: Скиба Іван
Published: July 2023

У статті проведено дослідження специфіки культури як способу взаємозв`язку суспільства з природою. Авторґрунтується на позиції, що дослідження сутності культури невідворотно стикається з антиномічністю, тобто суперечністюміж двома судженнями, які визнаються як вірні. З одного боку, культура є надприродною, позабіологічною, її неможливозвести лише до природного. З іншого боку, культуру, окрім як із природного, більше ні з чого побудувати. У такий спосіб,створюється враження про одночасну єдність та відмінність культурного й природного. Даний ракурс дослідженняпередбачає в перспективі необхідність врахування обох точок зору. Це веде до визнання паритетності, а непріоритетності в розумінні стратегії розвитку культури та природи. Ключ до вирішення даного питання, на думку автора,лежить в антпропологічній площині, оскільки саме людина активно впливає на взаємодію культури і природи, об’єднуючиобидві ці системи.
Adsorption of the Meso-Tetra-p-Tolylporphyrin (TTPH2) and Meso-Tetra-Naphthylporphyrin (TNPH2) onto Montmorillonite
Authors: HASSEN Jasim , SILVER Jack
Published: July 2023

The behavior of two porphyrin compounds, meso-tetra-p-tolylporphyrin (TTPH2) and meso-tetra-naphthylporphyrin (TNPH2) was studied and monitored during their adsorption on cation-exchanged montmorillonite clay (MMT). When these two compounds were reacted with MMT, the visible absorption spectra showed a clear shift of 10 nm higher than that found in the acetic acid solution. This suggests that the two compounds prefer to be more planar on the clay surface and, in the case of TTPH2, in the MMT interlamellar layers. The basal spacing of the MMT was increased by 4.4 Å when the TTPH42+ cations entered the spacers. The metal-exchanged ion in the clay is incorporated into the porphyrin rings when the TTPH2 and TNPH2 molecules react with MMT saturated with the metal ion of an appropriate size to fit in the porphyrin ring, such as Cu(II). The process occurred when executed in a solvent miscible with water that allowed the penetration of the hydrated sphere of the metal ion. Metalloporphyrin complexes are formed as a result of this process. The reactions were monitored using visible absorption spectra, diffuse reflectance spectra, x-ray diffraction, infrared spectra, and electron microscopy.
Can the Concept of the Common Good be the Foundation of Ethical Marketing?
Authors: Rodríguez Benito María Elena
Published: July 2023

Marketing is currently immersed in a reconceptualization that allows it to adapt its role in an ethical and sustainable economy. From the criticisms of marketing, it is inferred the need for an ethical support for marketing that so it is clear about the ends and not confuse it with the means and that allows a new relationship with people, that transcends their dimension as consumers and treats them as citizens. In this article, we analyze both from a theoretical perspective and qualitative research with marketing professionals whether the concept of the common good is a valid ethical foundation for marketing, as well as whether it is adequate to respond to the current socioeconomic paradigm. By virtue of what was observed in our research, the common good is adequate to guide marketing at the time of change that it is experiencing to adapt to the new social demands towards the company. We believe it is appropriate because it brings together characteristics that resolve the criticisms of marketing observed by consumers and professionals, especially its short-termism that leads it to confuse means with ends and the reduction of people to the role of consumers. Consequently, we conclude this article with a definition of marketing for the common good.

Published: July 2023

This study examines the relationship between macro- (organizational design), meso- (leadership behavior) and micro-level (employees’ personality) organizational characteristics and the individual’s ability to manage the exploration–exploitation duality (balancing of exploring new and exploiting existing paths). This study aims to reveal how employees’ ability to manage this duality can be enhanced and how these characteristics interact with each other. It is a work in progress, focused on building theoretical background and applying a new research design. An experiment is planned on two samples of Master students with a business background from Austria and Slovenia, using an experimental vignette methodology. Outcomes of this research will enable department and human resource managers to provide conditions at work for employees to balance their intention to explore new avenues while at the same time exploiting existing ones, as both behaviors are necessary to trigger organizational innovation and growth. This study will contribute to the organizational ambidexterity literature by recognizing the contextual and interactive role of macro-, meso- and micro-level organizational antecedents of individuals’ ambidextrous behavior.

Published: July 2023

“The European Green Deal” (EGD) is an integral part of the EU’s strategy to implement the United Nations Agenda 2030. Companies with more than 500 employees are required to include non-financial reporting (NFR) on their operational, social, and environmental data. In 2023, the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) extends reporting to all companies over 250 employees and certain SMEs, which will be required to report on nonfinancial aspects of their business since 2024–2028. The number of companies, subject to reporting will quadruple. Managers and responsible employees will have to cope with new challenges. Erasmus+ project Smart Education for Corporate Sustainability Reporting (SECuRe) is filling a gap in VET programmes dealing with knowledge in sustainability reporting, building up a common approach for VET teachers and learners across the EU to respond to the requirements of the future job market.

Od rezydencji pańskiej do Beaterio de las Nazarenas
Authors: Gonzales Donato Amado
Published: July 2023

Artykuł został poświęcony historii jednego z ciekawszych zespołów architektonicznych, który znajduje się w Cusco przy Plaza de las Nazarenas (dawniej Plaza de Santa Clara La Vieja); autor prześledził dzieje budynków oraz zmiany ich funkcji. Do tej pory nie udało się ustalić, któremu z konkwistadorów została przekazana działka podczas podziału ziemi w 1534 roku, wiadomo jednak, że w latach 80. XVI wieku należała do Pedra Bernarda de Quiroza, który zbudował tam swoją rezydencję. Następnie nieruchomość przeszła w ręce Antonia Raya Sambrany i jego żony Any Prado de Gallegos, w których posiadaniu pozostawała w latach 1607–1632. W kolejnych latach budynki zmieniły czasowo swoją funkcję – mieściła się w nich szkoła dla synów indiańskich kacyków prowadzona przez jezuitów (Colegio de San Borja). Pod koniec XVII i na początku XVIII wieku znów pełniły funkcje mieszkalne i należały kolejno do: Juana Laso de la Vegi, Antonii Cornel de Castilla, wdowy po kapitanie Juanie Ponce, i do Rosy de Ponce de León. Wreszcie nieruchomość została zakupiona przez biskupa Cusco Pedra de Morcilla Rubia de Auñon i przekazana na siedzibę Beaterio de las Nazarenas. Wówczas nastąpiła gruntowna przebudowa zespołu architektonicznego, przekształcono wnętrza wokół dwóch dziedzińców, wzniesiono i wyposażono kaplice. Budynki pozostawały własnością beaterium do lat 60. XX wieku, kiedy to zlikwidowano instytucję, a tercjarki tworzące wspólnotę zostały włączone do zakonu Karmelitanek Misjonarek. Dzisiaj w dawnym beaterium mieści się hotel.
Mistyczne zaślubiny św. Róży z Limy. Sojusz Korony Hiszpańskiej z Indiami Zachodnimi (XVII i XVIII wiek)
Authors: Arias Cuba Ybeth
Published: July 2023

Artykuł stanowi wstępne studium dotyczące złożonego problemu ikonograficznego, jakim jest przedstawienie mistycznych zaślubin św. Róży z Limy. Kult świętej zaczął rozwijać się wkrótce po śmierci tercjarki, jeszcze przed jej wyniesieniem na ołtarze. Impulsami, które zintensyfikowały dewocję skoncentrowaną wokół jej osoby, była beatyfikacja Róży w 1668 roku, a potem kanonizacja w roku 1671. Popularność świętej trwała przez cały okres funkcjonowania wicekrólestwa, a następnie, obrastając w konteksty narodowe, jej kult rozwijał się także w okresie republiki. Do dziś Róża z Limy pozostaje jedną z najpopularniejszych świętych w Ameryce Łacińskiej. Liczba przedstawień z jej udziałem jest ogromna. Analiza wizerunków świętej w kontekście myśli religijnej okresu kolonialnego pozwala na różnorodne drogi interpretacyjne mistycznych zaślubin. Powszechnie uznawano ją za uprzywilejowaną oblubienicę Chrystusa, a jej życie i postawę za wzorce godne naśladowania przez oddanych Bogu chrześcijan. W Indiach Zachodnich scena mistycznych zaślubin miała swoje własne wyjątkowe cechy i znaczenia. Charakterystycznymi elementami były: obecność aniołów i Trójcy Świętej, inskrypcje oraz obdarowanie Róży pierścieniem lub kwiatem przez Jezusa. Symbolizowały one ideę chrystianizacji Indii Zachodnich, która wydała już pierwszy owoc w postaci uprzywilejowanej świętej Amerykanki, która została patronką tych ziem. Nowy Świat został uznany za godny dostąpienia Królestwa Niebieskiego, ponieważ z gorliwością przyjął chrześcijaństwo. Mistyczne zaślubiny udowadniały, że rdzenni mieszkańcy Ameryki są oddanymi wasalami Boga. Lud amerykański wydał na świat tak wyróżnioną przez Boga świętą, więc z pewnością udowodnił, że wartości chrześcijańskie są mu bliskie. Zakładając, że monarcha był wybrańcem bożym, a nieodzownym elementem związanym z Koroną Hiszpańską była religia, ludy Nowego Świata wykazały, poprzez osobę św. Róży, że są godne miana dobrych chrześcijan, a mistyczne zaślubiny przypieczętowały związek pomiędzy Indiami Zachodnimi a Koroną Hiszpańską.
Comparative assessment of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in the identification of the middle ear cholesteatoma
Authors: Stepanova Elena A. , Garov Evgeny V.
Published: July 2023

Background: Chronic suppurative otitis media amounts up to 22.4% among all ear, nose and throat disorders. Its complication, a middle ear cholesteatoma, is one of the most frequent causes of patients' referral to an otologist. The literature on the preferential diagnostic method for the cholesteatoma is contradictory, despite that its main treatment approach is surgery. Therefore, it is important to identify the most valid diagnostic method, which would allow for the planning of the most effective surgical treatment.
Aim: To compare sensitivity and specificity of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis of cholesteatoma, to assess the possibility of quantitative values of MRI diffusion limitation in cholesteatoma.
Materials and methods: From 2015 to 2021, we examined 542 out- and in-patients (849 imagings of temporal bones) with chronic suppurative otitis media. The analysis of CT and MRI sensitivity and specificity included the data from 289 patient examinations, both with newly diagnosed cholesteatoma and having at least one past surgery and had their diagnosis verified intraoperatively and histologically. We analyzed the measured MRI diffusion coefficients from newly diagnosed and relapsed cholesteatoma. The MRI signal values were calculated for 266 masses from 238 patients.
Results: MRI sensitivity for the diagnosis of cholesteatoma was 95.2%, specificity 81.2%. CT sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of cholesteatoma were 60.1 и 44.7%, respectively. There were no differences in the measured MRI diffusion coefficients between the relapsed and newly diagnosed cholesteatomas. The comparison of cholesteatoma signals with those from artifacts showed the overlapping in their mean values; therefore, it is impossible to rely only on the value of the diffusion coefficient.
Conclusion: In the diagnosis of cholesteatomas, MRI is significantly more sensitive and specific than CT. No significant differences in MRI semiotics and the degree of MRI diffusion limitation at NON-EPI DWI (b1000) have been found for the cholesteatomas that had never been operated, and the relapsing cholesteatomas.
Soil Sustainability Assessment for Rice Cropping Recommendations: A Case Study in An Giang Province, Vietnam
Authors: Vu Pham Thanh , Minh Vo Quang
Published: July 2023

Background: The study aimed to identify the sustainability of soil fertility and social-economic factors for major rice cropping and offer suggestions for sustainable rice cropping. Methods: The kite sustainability assessment is a multi-objective assessment method based on standardized scoring formulas built on land assessment criteria with limiting factors. It used the AHP method to determine how different critical factors affect whether a place is good for growing rice. The soil fertility, economics, and social factors were also significant in determining whether or not rice could grow there and how well it might do. Results: The soil fertility status of the two main rice cropping in the study area has low pH, high organic matter content, high cation exchange capacity, and high clay content. Besides, the soil has a good water-holding capacity, high total N content, and average total P content. Utilizing the AHP method, it was determined that soil fertility, economic, and social factors were the second-most significant factors in determining the suitability of land for agriculture as well as the possibility and performance of rice. While the double-rice cropping model is only sustainable regarding fertility, the triple-rice cropping model achieves the sustainability goal of economic, social, and soil fertility indicators. Two rice cropping seasons, lWS-mSA (double rice) and mWS-eSA-eAW (triple rice), achieve a balanced level in all indicators of level 2 of soil fertility. Therefore, in both models, a system that reaches a sustainable level exists. Even so, the lWS-mSA cropping season could be less harmful to the environment than the mWS-eSA-eAW season in terms of the environmental group.

Na Educação Básica a disciplina História possui como uma prerrogativa relevante oportunizar que os discentes possam conhecer as condições do presente a partir das especificidades identificadas no processo histórico com a finalidade de estarem preparados para analisar, refletir e atuar no cenário social. É nesse contexto que o campo da história da saúde torna-se significativo como abordagem na disciplina História, já que a partir dos conteúdos expressos na iconografia e textualidade ocorre a vinculação com as intercorrências do tempo presente, particularmente a partir da pandemia de Covid-19.  Considerando-se a análise dos quatro volumes que compõem a Coleção Projeto Mosaico-História de livros didáticos do 6º ao 9º ano do Ensino Fundamental, verificaram-se as possibilidades de abordagens das temáticas de história da saúde, considerando uma produção acadêmica que também pode estar presente nas aulas do Ensino Básico de História.
PARA QUE SERVE A HISTÓRIA DA ÁFRICA? Caminhos sobre sua funcionalidade na Educação Básica
Authors: ABREU ELOY BARBOSA DE , GOMES RAFAELLA BARBOSA
Published: July 2023

No presente artigo objetivamos responder a um questionamento aparentemente simples, mas com uma profundidade epistemológica para a História e seu ensino. Para tanto, a discussão é iniciada sobre o conceito de História e qual a sua funcionalidade, tendo como base uma lógica tradicional e a concepção de História para os africanos. Por seguinte, fazemos uma abordagem sobre as tradicionais correntes historiográficas, Positivismo, Marxismo e Escola dos Analles, relacionando-as com a História da África, compreendendo que a História do continente africano não pode ser reduzida às correntes historiográficas tradicionais, mas sim como essas abordam a temática. Por último, apresentamos o pensamento decolonial como uma possibilidade de abordagem que representa a luta contra a lógica da colonialidade na História da África.
A SALVAÇÃO CHEGA PELAS ÁGUAS: o protestantismo em Belém e Manaus no século XIX
Authors: BEZERRA CÉSAR AQUINO
Published: July 2023

Este artigo aborda a chegada dos primeiros missionários protestantes na Amazônia brasileira, especificamente em Belém e Manaus, no contexto de abertura da região aos estrangeiros, tomando o rio Amazonas como caminho para levar o evangelho para as duas principais cidades da região. Assim, a partir de 1839, data do primeiro culto protestante no Pará, migrantes religiosos, enviados por igrejas norte-americanas, atravessam as águas como pioneiros do protestantismo na Amazônia. São esses missionários os pioneiros do crescimento protestante na região Norte do Brasil. Discutimos também a reação da Igreja Católica diante dessa incursão estrangeira, encarada como um perigo religioso, mas também de ameaça ao território.

Purpose: to assess the impact of education using the implicit bias recognition and management (IBRM) teaching approach. Design: longitudinal quasi-experimental design. Surveys at baseline, immediate postimplementation, and 4-week postimplementation using the modified version of the Attitudes Toward Implicit Bias Instrument (ATIBI). The 4-week survey included items about implicit bias recognition and mitigation strategies. Sample: thirty-six neonatal nurse practitioners assigned to the NICU in a Midwest urban children’s hospital. Results: one-way repeated-measures analysis of variance was used, and the score range was 16–96. The results showed a statistically significant model,F(1.49, 707.97) = 34.46,p<.001, partial η2= 0.496. Pairwise comparisons showed improvement from pre (M= 73.08, SD = 9.36) to immediate postimplementation (M= 80.06, SD = 8.19),p<.001. Scores were sustained at 4-week postimplementation (M= 79.28, SD = 10.39),p= .744. Conclusions: The IBRM teaching approach improved scores from baseline on a modified ATIBI that remained improved 4 weeks after the education.

Published: July 2023

The Indonesian National Police obtains a mandate from laws tasked with maintaining security and order, protecting, serving, enforcing the law and protecting the public. One of these tasks is the prevention of theft with violence crimes by the Police Resort in the East OKU. In seeking answers to this problem, the author used empirical research methods, by conducting interviews with several parties, including the East OKU Police Resort and the perpetrators of violent crimes. The results of the study suggest that, first, the things that cause theft with violence crimes are caused by two factors, namely endogenous and exogenous factors, but the causative factors that often cause theft with violence crimes in the East OKU such as economic level, low education that causes unemployment, the environment, and lack of legal awareness, and supported by situations and conditions. The second is done by using penal and non-penal effort. Prevention with Penal efforts focuses more on the repressive nature, that is, actions carried out after the occurrence of crime. The study's findings revealed the effectiveness of criminal law and policy in preventing violent stealing.

Published: July 2023

PERMA Number 3 of 2017 serves as a guideline for judges in adjudicating cases involving women and can be used as a legal basis for providing protection to children who are victims of divorce. The problem discussed in this research is the implementation of PERMA in the Baturaja Religious Court. The aim of this study is to examine the issue of the non-fulfillment of the rights of the wife and children as a consequence of divorce in court decisions. A qualitative research approach with a field study design was chosen for this study. The research was conducted at the Baturaja Religious Court. The data used consisted of primary data and secondary data. Data analysis was divided into three parts: data reduction, data display, and conclusions. The research findings indicate that the implementation of PERMA Number 3 of 2017 regarding the rights of the wife and children as a consequence of divorce in the Baturaja Religious Court has not been fully implemented. This is due to several factors, such as the economic instability of the father, remarriage of the parents, psychological factors that prevent the former husband from meeting their children, and the ability of the mother to provide for the child's welfare.
