Authors: Zdzisław Puślecki
Published: June 2023

Głównym celem artykułu jest przedstawienie nowego protekcjonizmu między Stanami Zjednoczonymi Ameryki a Chinami oraz międzynarodowej polityki handlowej w warunkach światowych zawirowań geopolitycznych. Głównym celem zadania badawczego jest kompleksowa analiza aktualnych trendów w teorii i polityce handlu zagranicznego, a w szczególności modeli polityki handlu zagranicznego, interesów handlowych wskazywanych przez orientację eksportową i wrażliwość importową, nacisków protekcjonistycznych w różnych systemach politycznych, poziomu nacisków protekcjonistycznych, nowych tendencji w biznesie międzynarodowym, przyczyn wprowadzenia przez USA sankcji celnych. Chiny zostaną poważnie dotknięte wojną handlową w zakresie taryf celnych we wszystkich wskaźnikach, w tym w zakresie dobrobytu, produktu krajowego brutto (PKB), zatrudnienia w przemyśle i handlu. Zwraca się jednak uwagę, że chociaż wystąpią określone skutki dla Chin, koszty powinny być możliwe do utrzymania i nie spowodują poważnych szkód w chińskiej gospodarce. Jeżeli chodzi o Stany Zjednoczone, należy stwierdzić, że państwo to odniesie korzyści w przypadku wzrostu dobrobytu, PKB i wytwarzania artykułów nieprodukcyjnych, jednakże pogorszy się zatrudnienie i handel międzynarodowy.

Authors: Mercier Cendrine , Marfisi-Schottman Iza , Ez-Zaouia Mohamed , Deshayes Delphine
Published: June 2023

La réalité augmentée est rarement utilisée dans les classes en France et pourtant elle semble avoir des vertus pertinentes pour le développement de connaissances et de compétences chez les apprenants. Dans le cadre d’une enquête exploratoire, une analyse de pratique pédagogique instrumentée (de l’enseignante) est détaillée au regard de l’usager (élève) d’un outil de réalité augmentée en classe de maternelle (cycle 1 – école maternelle – de 4 à 5 ans). L’apport de cet outil numérique sur les apprentissages et les compétences des élèves est étudié finement pour stabiliser le protocole de recherche et le proposer à l’ensemble des enseignants impliqués dans le projet de recherche. Les résultats soulignent plusieurs pistes encourageantes comme le développement de compétences sociocognitives et l’engagement des élèves. Du côté de l’enseignante, c’est un outil de plus au service de la pédagogie et un outil semblant répondre à des profils d’élèves avec des besoins éducatifs particuliers.
Le design, le développement et l’évaluation d’une simulation de gestion de projet agile avec Minecraft Education : partage d’une approche innovante en enseignement supérieur
Authors: Petit Marie-Claude , Coulon Thibaut , Bourdeau Simon
Published: June 2023

Cette contribution praticienne présente le processus qui a mené à la refonte d’un scénario pédagogique au tournant de l’année 2020 dans des cours universitaires. Ce projet avait pour but de transposer dans un environnement numérique, soit Minecraft Education Edition (MEE), une simulation de gestion de projet agile initialement conçue pour se dérouler avec, sur tables, des briques Lego® et, aux murs, des cartes adhésives. En plus d’illustrer la valeur ajoutée du recours aux approches d’ingénierie pédagogique ADDIE (analyse, design (ou conception), développement, implantation et évaluation) et SAM2 (Successive Approximation Model) pour, d’un point de vue technopédagogique, parvenir à exploiter de façon judicieuse cette application numérique, l’article souligne qu’il importe d’offrir aux apprenants la possibilité de se familiariser avec l’environnement de MEE avant qu’ils ne sautent tête la première dans cet univers virtuel qui, pour plusieurs, s’avère méconnu. Dotés de connaissances et d’une expérience antérieure le jour de l’immersion, ces derniers démontrent davantage de confiance en leurs capacités de réussir les tâches d’apprentissage demandées. Pour conclure, des recommandations issues de nos réflexions et de notre expérience sont émises.
Upregulation of Interleukin-2 Among Hypertensive Subjects in Bayelsa State, Nigeria
Authors: Ogbole Faith Ajiebabhio , Ebiakpo Moroyei Bayelsa
Published: June 2023

Hypertension is a killer disease that increases with age. Several inflammatory biomarkers have been associated with hypertension. However conflicting reports exist on the relationship of interleukin-2 with hypertension. The objective of the present study was to determine the association of hypertension with interleukin-2 (IL-2) as well as the distribution of blood pressure among adults in Bayelsa State, Nigeria. Randomly selected 270 adults were screened for hypertension using Andon blood pressure monitor and real time PCR was used to quantify IL-2 gene expression. A structured questionnaire was used to collect sociodemographic information. A normal systolic and diastolic blood pressure distribution was found. Mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure were 123.69±22.65 and 77.60±13.53 mmHg respectively. The prevalence of hypertension was 47.4% (isolated systolic hypertension, 10.4%; isolated diastolic hypertension, 4.4%; co-occurring systolic and diastolic hypertension, 32.6%). Exactly 71.09% of hypertensive subjects were unaware that they were hypertensive. Age related increase in hypertension was found. Compared with normal control, a significant upregulation in IL-2 gene expression was found among hypertensive subjects (p < 0.05). In conclusion, the present study showed that a high prevalence of hypertension and low hypertensive status awareness exist in rural areas in Bayelsa State, Nigeria. It also showed that hypertension is associated with a significant upregulation in IL-2 gene expression. Hypertension interventions to rural areas and the use of IL-2 as a target biomarker for novel antihypertensive drug design is implicated in the present study.

Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C) in Pediatric Patient Post Cardiac Surgery: A Case Report
Authors: Eka Pratiwi Ni Putu Lisa , Wibawa Nada I Ketut
Published: June 2023

Introduction: Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a relatively new disease associated with recent infection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2).
Case Report: We reported a 1-year-3-month-old girl with congenital heart disease since 1-month-old. Peripheral oxygen saturation was 89%, and systolic murmur was found from physical examination. Patient was assessed with ASA III physical status and planned to undergo re-route partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) and surgical atrial septal defect (ASD) closure under general anesthesia and cardiopulmonary bypass. During surgery, hemodynamic fluctuations were controlled. Post-operatively, she was transferred to the ICU, given sedation and analgesic. On night time, patient started to have fever with temperature 37.9⁰C. On the second day, patient had bradypneu, bradycardia, re-intubated and was given CPR. On the third day, patient’s SARS-CoV-2 Antibody was found to be reactive and diagnosis of MIS-C was made. On the fourth day, patient’s condition begin to deteriorate on even though she was given of Dobutamine, Epinephrine, Norepinephrine and Vasopressin. Four hours later, patient did not respond after CPR and declared deceased.
Discussion: Early recognition of MIS-C is challenging because the initial symptoms appear in previously healthy patient, with several symptoms such as fever, abdominal discomfort, mucocutaneous involvement, neurologic symptoms, cardiorespiratory symptoms (shock, myocarditis, dyspnea) with evidence of a marked inflammatory state. Immunomodulators are the mainstay of the treatment, with additional therapy such as steroids and anticoagulant. This severe disease’s mortality rate could be as high as 15% and more research must be done to better understand this disease.
Conclusion: MIS-C is a novel pediatric syndrome characterized by fever, multi-organ involvement and marked inflammatory state. Further study is required to provide consistent diagnosis criteria, therapy regimens, and long-term prognosis since this is a relatively new pediatric syndrome.

Keywords: Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), SARS-CoV-2, pediatric

Sexual Attitudes, Age, Sex and Romantic Commitment as Factors in the Level of HIV Awareness of Selected College Students
Authors: Edward T. Fabella Frederick
Published: June 2023

As of January of 2023, over 110,000 documented HIV cases have been reported in the Philippines. According to the Department of Health, the rate of infection in 2023 is 22% higher than in 2022. In view of these reports, this study attempted to ascertain the level of HIV awareness of selected college students. It also explored their sexual attitudes, age, sex and presence of a romantic commitment as potential factors that could affect their level of HIV awareness. Fifty 2nd year students from a college in the Province of Rizal, Philippines volunteered to be the respondents. To assess their sexual attitudes, the Brief Sexual Attitude Scale (BSAS), a 23 item 5-point Likert scale instrument, which measures the 4 domains of permissiveness, birth control, communion and instrumentality was used. To assess their HIV awareness, a 29-item true or false researcher-made instrument was crafted based on the HIV facts stated in the UNAIDS website. The results found that with regards to sexual attitudes, the respondents moderately disagree to permissiveness, strongly agree to birth control, moderately agree to communion and are neutral to instrumentality. No significant difference was found between the male and female respondents concerning the 4 BSAS domains. Furthermore, there was also no significant difference between the respondents with and without romantic commitment concerning the 4 BSAS domains. Based on the scores obtained from the researcher-made instrument measuring the respondents’ level of HIV awareness, their level of awareness is only at 52.48%. A very statistically significant difference was found in the level of HIV awareness between the male and female respondents. In addition, it was established that the female respondents have a significantly higher HIV awareness than the male respondents. No significant difference was established between the level of HIV awareness of the respondents with or without romantic commitment. Furthermore, no significant relationship was found between the level of HIV awareness of the respondents and the 4 BSAS domains. However, a significant moderate inverse relationship between the respondents’ age and their level of HIV awareness was established. This implies that as the respondent’s age increases, his HIV awareness score moderately decreases and vice versa.

VALUES AND IDEAS IN ARMENIAN SITCOMS
Authors: Hakobyan L. S. , Baghdasaryan A. R․
Published: June 2023

With its daily activities, the national media builds a certain image of the public, which becomes a part of our consciousness in the background of the presented news, forms our ideas about the surrounding world and people, and creates aspirations for identification with these images. The teenager gets the moral code of life, family and other values from the media. Low-quality sitcoms with vulgar jokes, bad acting and primitive plot have become more common in the Armenian media. At present, there is almost no analytical or research work on this topic.
Armenian teenagers make extensive use of mass media, and TV sitcoms, in particular. They have a great influence on a teenager’s formation as an individual, form certain social attitudes and determine certain behavior. Nowadays, a teenager receives mostly negative messages from the media: an obvious lack of literary language, a distorted image of a parent, family, school, intellectuals, lack of distinct attitude to good and evil. These media messages, regardless of social status, level of education and place of residence, determine a generally accepted and understandable way of thinking and manners acceptable to teenagers, within which they try to self-realize in everyday life.

Authors: Hakobyan E. G.
Published: June 2023

Tourism has been declared as a priority sphere of the economy in the Reublic of Armenia. Taking into account climate conditions of the Republic of Armenia, it should be noted that there are appropriate prerequisites for the development of sports tourism.
Based on the systematic study and analysis of current problems of sports tourism in the Republic of Armenia, the following tasks were put forward for the development of sports tourism: to study the essence and types of sports tourism, to identify the role and importance of sports tourism in the economy of the country and I the field of sport, to identify the potential opportunities and prospects for the development of the main types of sports tourism in the RA.
The country's geographical location and natural resources are the guarantees of the development of sports tourism in Armenia. Despite the present potential, and the importance of economic and social significance - sports tourism is not developed properly in Armenia, the difficulties faced by sports tourism in Armenia are related to the economic problems of population development, as well as the lack of state and public support. The development of sports tourism is directly related to the degree of development of general tourism. According to our surveys among the youth, the ideas about sports tourism are quite meager. The types of sports tourism are represented even worse among the tourists visiting our republic. The most popular sports types are skiing, hiking and mountain climbing.
Studying the actual data, we came to the following conclusion: there are sufficient resources in the Republic of Armenia for the development of sports tourism. It is noteworthy that sports tourism in Armenia is mainly affordable, but a number of problems hinder and slow down the development of particular directions. This problem should be solved systematically and gradually.

Authors: Chatinyan A.A.
Published: June 2023

Main directions of the research in wrestling are related to the clarification of technical, physical, psychological preparation of athletes, early specialization, competitive activity and many other issues. Today, the problem of wrestlers’ movement control in connection with beginners and qualified athletes needs to be studied.
The aim of the research is to identify the characteristics of the development of the ability to manage young Greco-Roman and freestyle wrestlers’ movements.
It was revealed that the main results of the evaluation of short and long segments of Greco-Roman and freestyle wrestlers were not significantly different from each other. The differences between the data of the same characteristics of the athletes of the two kinds of wrestling are small, unreliable and amount to 0.05 and 0.04 seconds, respectively. No significant differences were found between Greco-Roman and freestyle wrestlers in wrist and torso muscle control data. In both kinds of wrestling, young athletes control the muscular movements of the wrist more precisely than of the torso. This is most evident in the data of Greco-Roman wrestlers.
There were no significant differences between short and long segments of time, as well as wrist and torso muscle control indicators of young Greco-Roman and freestyle wrestlers. It was revealed that as compared to schoolchildren of the same age who do not do sports, young wrestlers control short and long periods more accurately, as well as wrist muscle strength, except for freestyle wrestlers.

Authors: Yonggang Dong Yonggang Dong , Yonggang Dong Shichao Cao , Shichao Cao Haoliang Yang
Published: June 2023

A large number of distributed energy sources connected to the grid will cause certain disturbances to the stability of the grid system. We consider the random characteristics and establish a dynamic simulation framework for the active power distribution system suitable for the integral projection algorithm. The article uses an internal integrator to solve the fast dynamic process with explicit and implicit Euler methods in small steps. In the calculation process, this method can effectively consider the influence of events such as fault disturbance on the grid connection of the distributed power grid. Numerical analysis and simulation tests verify the effectiveness of this algorithm.

Authors: ORHAN Hediye , YAVŞAN Emrehan
Published: June 2023

The progressive depletion of the ozone layer poses a significant threat to both human health and the environment. Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet radiation increases the risk of developing skin cancer, particularly melanoma. Early diagnosis and vigilant monitoring play a crucial role in the successful treatment of melanoma. Effective diagnostic strategies need to be implemented to curb the rising incidence of this disease worldwide. In this work, we propose an artificial intelligence-based detection model that employs deep learning techniques to accurately monitor nevi with characteristics that may indicate the presence of melanoma. A comprehensive dataset comprising 8598 images was utilized for the model development. The dataset underwent training, validation, and testing processes, employing the algorithms such as AlexNet, MobileNet, ResNet, VGG16, and VGG19, as documented in current literature. Among these algorithms, the MobileNet model demonstrated superior performance, achieving an accuracy of %84.94 after completing the training and testing phases. Future plans involve integrating this model with a desktop program compatible with various operating systems, thereby establishing a practical detection system. The proposed model has the potential to aid qualified healthcare professionals in the diagnosis of melanoma. Furthermore, we envision the development of a mobile application to facilitate melanoma detection in home environments, providing added convenience and accessibility.

Hunter Besumlt has translated ad edited the first major hk on HelIingervs work in English (hue 's Hidden Symmetry by Bert Hellingw with Gunthard Weber and Hunter Beaumont, 1998, Zeig, Tucker and Co., Phmix, Arizona, USA). In his far-ranging interview, among many other topics, Hunter Beaumont describes his early experiences of Gestalt thqy; how he believes the ""d' and its movements are essential for tRe thempist to attend to phenomenologically; and the molutionary thinking of Hellinga's approach to wmhg with the struclums of the field - i.c. its in-built 'orders' - which consbrain arPd permit the flow of love and energy beten family members.

Pain and beauty: from the psychopathology to the aesthetics of contact
Authors: Francesetti Gianni
Published: June 2023

"Abstract: The concept of beauty in Gestalt therapy is explored, underlining the central importance of the aesthetic criterion for this model. Aesthetic evaluation, which is an essential component in the work of any Gestalt therapist, is a prereflexive and preverbal process, located at the root of the Gestaltung, in the dimension in which the subect and the world emerge. An original conception of psychopathology and psychotherapy is discussed: psychopathological suffering is conceived as an absence at the contact boundary. Therapy therefore consists in restoring presence to the encounter, through a process which transforms absence into pain and pain into beauty. The therapeutic engagement in ‘distilling beauty’ from the relational histories and dynamics narrated by the client is considered from an existential perspective, seeking to make sense of human suffering and of our work as therapists. Finally, in this light, we consider the ethical ground of psychotherapy, which permits us to avoid the risks of reductionism which we face at present – namely the risk of reducing the psyche into a biological or intimistic event. Key words: beauty, pain, aesthetics, contact, Gestaltung, intrinsic evaluation, psychopath- ology, ethics, existentialism, reductionism."
Towards a Gestalt Development Model
Authors: Wheeler Gordon
Published: June 2023

"Abstract: Traditional models of development have emphasised developmental stages of the individual self as powered from within, in varying degrees of isolation from the experiential and social field Even models such as Erikson's, which attempt to consi&r the sucial surround, rest on the individualistic premises of a reifled and autonomous self model. As a result, clinicians and o'thets who work with children and adolescents have long expemed a split between theory and actual practice, which &Iy rests on seeing and working with their clients in their social context. The use of a Gestalt lens sewes to =integrate the false dichotomy in this field, nwving us toward a whole-field view of self and development that re1ate-s the inner and outer worlds of the child as a unitary dynamic process. Thematic implications of hs view are discw, with emphasis on intersubjectivity and intimacy, support and shame, gender and identity, and voice and nmtivdl as developmental dynamics and issues. Key words: development, Gestalt, self, individualism, field model, intersubjectivity, intimacy, support, shame, gender, identity, voice, narrative."
Awareness, Contacting and the Promotion of Democratic-Egalitarian Social Life
Authors: Lichtenberg Philip , Gray Cathy
Published: June 2023

"Abstract: Using a relational analysis of the founders' [of Gestalt Therapy] theory of contacting and withdrawing, with special attention to awareness pattems, this paper shows how personhood and community are intertwined and develop together. The flowing process encompasses a solitary resting condition with special attributes of both personhood and community; a particularising activity in which self-definition and responsibility with the other take place; a merging with the other in a temporary community; and withdrawing and taking away the fruits ofthe process. Key words: awareness, contact, community, democratic, egalitarian."
On Spirituality and Selfhood
Authors: Kirti Wheway John
Published: June 2023

"Editor's Note: We are pleased and proud to publisb here the first 'Marianne Fry Memorial kdure', given by John Kti Wheway on 11 September, 1999. The newly established annual lecture, honouring Marianne Fry, is intended as a vehicle for continued serious exploration of the boundary between Gestalt and spirituality. Marianne Fry, who died in 1998 (and whose obimary appeared in the British Gesdt Journal, 7,l) made explicit and frequent ~onnections between her spiritual life and principles of Gestalt therapy. In this lecture, John Kirti Wheway, a close friend of Marianne, takes Montaignek Essays as his starting point for a remarkable personal statement - a reflective, honest, searching enquiry into therapy, its relation to spirituality in a secularised world, and his own development of selfhood. Montaigne's self- exploration, based on dim experience of 'the lived human life' provides (meway suggests) a mdel for a 'liberal spirituality', revealed here as bad in wholeness, 'the ernbeddedness of the human in the non-human world', the centrality of breath, and the presence of the 'disinterested witness' observing the 'story-telling self'. (John Kirti Wheway 's lecture formed a central part of the first 'Gestalt and Spirituality Gathering', which was organised by Gestalt Southwest and held at Hawkwood College, G'loucestershire, England. A second Gathering will be held 22-24 September, 2000, at Gaunt's House, Dorset, England. For details see the notice in this issue.)"
The relational movement
Authors: Fairfield Mark
Published: June 2023

"Abstract: The author calls for a reconsideration of the core values on which the Gestalt paradigm is based and discusses implications for training Gestalt practitioners. These values are gathered into four assumptions: (1) Health can only be defined relationally and holistically; (2) Embodied experience should be included in important decision making; (3) Diversity is essential to all development; and (4) Sustainability depends on sharing leadership. The article also proposes a set of competencies, developed from these values and built into the training curriculum at The Relational Center in the US, that can help practitioners lead individuals, groups, and communities along pathways toward compassionate, democratic, and sustain- able relationships. Key words: relational, social movement, leadership, Gestalt values, ethics, cultural context."

The Lived Body
Authors: Kennedy Des
Published: June 2023

"Abstract: This article deals with the 'lived body' which I propose as both the epistemological and ontological foundation of Gestalt therapy. To deepen our understanding of Gestalt therapy theory I draw upon the reflections of Maurice Merleau- Ponty whose philosophy is one protracted meditation upon the theme of the lived body. I show how this concept was pivotal in Gestalt therapy theory from the start and lies behind the holism embraced by both Laura and Fritz Perls. To demonstrate the centrality of the lived body, I elaborate upon five areas of embodiment: my lived body as the vehicle of my being-in-the-world, as the carrier of my heart-longings, as the repository of my history, as the locus of my uniqueness, and as my ever-present power of transformation (transcendence). Key words: body, holism, foundation, correlate, embodiment, motility, immediacy, grounding, belonging, transcendence."
Breaching the silence: accessing ‘acquired worlds’ at the primordial level
Authors: Kennedy Des
Published: June 2023

"Abstract: This article is a progressive phenomenological enquiry into ‘contact’. It leads us back to that most originary, non-constructed, and totally-given condition which Merleau-Ponty calls ‘primordial contact’. This is the source for what we call our ‘human nature’. The author suggests that the Gestalt therapist is called upon to embrace a lifestyle which embodies this most basic intuition of the world. This will facilitate her/his ability to engage with those closed ‘acquired worlds’ of clients, to speak from within those viewpoints, while at the same time maintaining a solid grip on their own world. Openness to dialogue is the basic posture of the Gestalt therapist, informed by humility and sustained by thankfulness. It is, however, quite clear that constituted speech, as it operates in daily life, assumes that the decisive step of expression has been taken. Our view of man will remain superficial so long as we fail to go back to that origin, so long as we fail to find, beneath the chatter of words, the primordial silence, and as long as we do not describe the action which breaks this silence. The spoken word is a gesture and its meaning a world. (Merleau-Ponty, 1986, p. 184; F214)1 Key words: acquired world, awareness, contact, dialogue, perception, transcendence, primordial contact."
Sustaining Dynamic Tension When Consulting To Complex Systems
Authors: Farrands Rob
Published: June 2023

"Abstract: The purpose of this article is to provide an account of the work of an organisation consultant hm a Gestalt perspective. The first describes a particular assignment with a strategy team working on behalf of a multinational oil company in an intense examination of technical and strategic scenarios for the first half of this century. This includes an account of how the consultant struggled to make use of his own bewilderment, and sought to sustain 'stmnger-n~s' in his relationship with the client system. The second part is a more theoretical reflection upon the dialectical forces at play as the consultant creates a consulting approach that seeks to integrate the team around a common story, while also numrhg their connection to the complex world of the larger system. The paper also explores the way in which working with different levels of system requires that mutually exclusive goals have to be held in a dynamic tension. In a final part the consultant considers his Gestalt heritage and how this has influenced the choices he has made on this assignment. Key words: organisation consulting, strategy development, levels of system, system boundaries, presenceI pmms consultin& energy, contact, Gestalt."
