URBANISMO Y RED NATURA 2000. LEY 8/2007 Y ALTERACIÓN DE ZONAS PROTEGIDAS
Authors: GARCIA URETA AGUSTIN
Published: March 2022

Este trabajo analiza la regulación de la Ley 8/2007, de 28 de mayo, de Suelo, respecto de la posibilidad de alteración de la delimitación de los espacios naturales incluidos en la Red Natura 2000. Tanto en el Derecho internacional, europeo y español la desclasificación de un espacio natural protegido no puede llevarse a cabo, en principio, bajo cualquier causa. Las condiciones naturales que motivan la designación de tales áreas suponen un límite para autorizar decisiones que puedan dar paso a su modificación o incluso desclasificación. El trabajo examina lo dispuesto en el art. 9 de la Directiva 92/43 de Hábitats, su incidencia sobre las categorías europeas de espacios naturales, esto es, Lugares de Importancia Comunitaria (LICs), Zonas de Especial Protección para las Aves (ZEPAs) y Zonas de Especial Conservación (ZECs), así como el alcance de lo establecido en la Ley 8/2007 y su compatibilidad con el Derecho europeo, argumentando que en algunos aspectos va más allá de lo establecido en la Directiva.

Lan honek, Lurzoruaren maiatzaren 28ko 8/2007 Legearen arauketak, Natura 2000ren baitan dauden gune naturalen mugen aldaketen gaineko aukerak aztertzen ditu. Nazioarteko, zein Europako, zein Espainiako Zuzenbidean, babestutako gune natural bat ezin daiteke edozein arrazoirengatik desklasifikatu. Area horien izendapenerako erabilitako baldintza naturalak, bere aldaketa edo desklasifikazioa erabakitzeko mugak dira. Lanak habitatei buruzko 92/43 Direktibaren 9. artikulua aztertzen du: Europako gune natural kategorien gaineko bere eragina, hots, Erkidegoko Garrantzia Tokiak, Hegaztientzat Babes Bereziko Guneak eta Babes Bereziko Guneak, hala nola, 8/2007 Legeak jasotakoaren irispena eta Europako Zuzenbidearekin duen baterakidetasuna. Honetan Legea Direktiba baino zorrotzagoa dela argudiatzen da.

This article analyses the rules set out in Town Planning Law 8/2007 regarding the modification of European nature protected areas. Under International, European and Spanish law the declassification of protected areas cannot be carried out by invoking any kind of justification. The conditions that motivate their classification are also a limitation for the modification of those areas and even for their declassification. The article examines the requirements set out in Article 9 of Directive 92/43 (Habitats Directive) and the impact on Sites of Community Importance (SICs), Special Protection Areas for
Birds (SPAs) and Special Areas of Conservation (SCAs). Likewise, the article pays close attention to Law 8/2007 and its compatibility with European Law arguing that in certain matters it goes further than the Directive.
SOBRE NOMBRAMIENTOS DISCRECIONALES DE ALTOS CARGOS: UN FALLIDO VIRAJE JURISPRUDENCIAL
Authors: IGARTUA SALAVERRIA JUAN
Published: March 2022

Se comienza subrayando el giro radical que, en orden a la obligación de motivar los nombramientos discrecionales para altos cargos, parecía suponer la S­ts 3171/2006 de la Sala Tercera. Y, a continuación, se desgrana un rosario de desventuras que, en ejecución de la citada sentencia, han terminado por desmantelar lo que de ansiado y novedoso tenía la resolución.

Goi-kargudunen izendapen askea bultzatzeko betebeharraren auzian, Auzitegi Goreneko hirugarren salak emandako 3171/2006 Epaiak ekarri behar zuen errotiko aldaketa azpimarratzen da hasieran. Eta jarraian, epai hori gauzatzean izandako zoritxarrak aipatzen dira bata bestearen atzetik, eta horien eraginez ebazpen horrek zuen grina eta berritzeko irrika desagertu egin direla azaltzen da.

This paper begins emphasizing the u-turn that in relation to the obligation to state reasons concerning discretional appointments of high rank officials seemed to imply the Supreme Court judgment 3171/2006 pronounced by its Third Section. And next, it comes out with a string of misfortunes that, in the course of the execution of the mentioned judgment, has ended up by dismantling the so much longed for and new content
of the aforementioned judicial resolution.
EL DERECHO DE HUELGA DE LA ERTZAINTZA. COMENTARIO A LA STSJ DEL PAÍS VASCO 503/2006 DE 11 DE SEPTIEMBRE DE 2006 (RECURSO 402/2006)
Authors: LAFONT NICUESA LUIS
Published: March 2022

La Ertzaina, bajo la dependencia del Gobierno Vasco y con fundamento en el art. 104.1 de la Constitución, garantiza la seguridad ciudadana y el libre ejercicio de los derechos fundamentales. Para asegurar dichos fines se ve privado de uno como es el de huelga. Una decisión de la Administración por la que el Gobierno Vasco prohibe el ejercicio de la huelga por el colectivo de la Ertzaina es recurrida judicialmente. El presente trabajo examina la respuesta judicial a la posible inconstitucionalidad de la prohibición legal de la huelga de la policía desde la perspectiva de la igualdad, la libertad sindical y la huelga.

Ertzaintzak, Eusko Jaurlaritzaren agindupean eta Konstituzioaren 104.1 artikuluan oinarrituta, herritarren segurtasuna bermatzen du, bai eta oinarrizko eskubideak modu askean baliatzea ere. Helburu horiek ziurtatzeko, eskubide horietako bat ukatzen zaio, ordea: greba-eskubidea. Eusko Jaurlaritzaren erabaki batek debekatu egiten die ertzainei greba egitea, eta epailearen aurrean errekurtsoa aurkeztu dute, Administrazioaren erabakiaren aurka. Hain zuzen, lan honek horixe du aztergai: greba-eskubidearen legezko debekuaren balizko inkonstituzionaltasunari emandako erantzun judiziala, berdintasunaren, askatasun sindikalaren eta grebaren ikuspegitik.

The Ertzaina (the Basque Police) under the supervision of the Basque Government and based on art. 104.1 of the Constitution, ensures the public safety and free enjoyment of fundamental rights. In order to ensure those purposes, its members lack the
right to strike. An administrative decision by the Basque Government that prohibited the exercise of the right to strike to the members of the Ertzaina was appealed against. This paper analyses the judicial response to the possible inconstitutionality of the legal prohibition to strike within the Police from the perspective of equality, of freedom to form a trade union and of the right to strike.

The Politics of Protest in the Post-Apartheid Poetry of Seitlhamo Motsapi and Mxolisi Nyezwa
Authors: Adelokun Adetunji
Published: March 2022

This paper critically examines the manifestation of protest agitations in post-apartheid South African poetry. The paper considered the insightful reflections of two South African poets on the influence of the apartheid administration and other forms of racial profiling and segregation. It is pertinent to note that the paper does not only record the outburst of these writers against apartheid; the crux of the paper is channeled towards the exposition of the perspectives of the selected poets about the traumatic experience of apartheid and the obnoxious nature of the post-apartheid experience.  One collection of poetry from Seitlhamo Motsapi and Mxolisi Nyezwa was selected for critical and literary analysis. The paper considers the expression of disaffection by writers in their portrayal of the struggles for socio-political sanity and socioeconomic equanimity after the dehumanizing apartheid regime. The paper posits that writers should continually engage the thesis of post-apartheid and evoke the consciousness of the masses to the nefarious realities of their circumstances. The paper concludes that Africans need to realize their distinctions and peculiarities by looking inwards and reflecting on new ways to chart a new course for future generations.
HRM Comparative Performance and Practices within MNCs’ subsidiaries in Kazakhstan
Authors: Masyhuri Muhammad
Published: March 2022

The issue of human resource management (HRM) is critical to economic growth, particularly in the countries like the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) and in the transition economies of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). The growing number of multinational corporations (MNCs) as one of the main drivers of the internationalization process in the HRM sector has attracted considerable attention from management scholars worldwide. The aim of this report is to discuss and analyse HRM performance and HRM practices in subsidiaries of MNCs in Kazakhstan, as the largest recipient of foreign direct investment (FDI) among CIS countries. The methodological approach of this study is based on the analysis of Poór et al. (2017) work on HRM performance and practices combined by cross-cultural management (CCM) of HRM in GLOBE study (House et al., 2004). It found that the subsidiaries of the MNCs in Kazakhstan tend to adopt the divergence of HRM functions and practices instead of the convergence concept by giving more freedom to the local HR departments in managing their HR roles and strategies. In terms of leadership style, Kazakhs prefer charismatic and team-oriented styles and belong to the societal cultural practices in the cultural dimensions of power distance and group collectivism. The implication practices of the study may help HR practitioners in both private sectors and public government administrations to understand about the importance of HRM policies and practices characteristics and behaviours amongst the MNCs subsidiaries a country, in achieving and improving labor productivity and business efficiency.
Students and Teacher’s Perception on the Effectiveness of Using Strategic Intervention Material in Science
Authors: Acedillo Reymark , Lagahit Jay-ar , Macusang Ariel Jade , Bacatan Jovenil
Published: March 2022

This study aimed to determine the perceptions of the selected students who have learning difficulties in science, and their teachers regarding the effectiveness of using Strategic Intervention Material (SIM) in science. To explore and describe the perceptions of the teacher and students, a qualitative-phenomenological approach was employed. There were six (6) participants of the study composed of teachers and students which were purposely selected. The participants of the study are from one of the public schools in Island Garden City of Samal that has teachers utilizing SIM (Strategic Intervention Material) in aiding students’ least learned topics or competencies in science. The researchers used researcher-made questionnaires which were validated by a panel of experts. The researchers also utilized the focus group dicussion employing an open-ended semi-structured interview to the key informants. The researchers interviewed each of the participants and obtained some perceptions correlated to the research questions prepared by the researchers. After gathering the needed data, the researchers used thematic analysis or thematic coding as a tool for analyzing the data and drawing of the conclusion. Based on the gathered data from the participants, the researchers noticed three positive themes which were Strategic Intervention Material aids the least learned competencies, Strategic Intervention Material is simplified, and Strategic Intervention Material improves the performance of the students in class. In addition to this, there is a student, one of the participants, who stated that after Strategic Intervention Material was utilized to them, there had been an increase of her grades. Because of the positive results of the gathered data, it is possible that Strategic Intervention Material will prosper in the near future as a material that aids least the learned competencies of students. With these results also, it was recommended that the Science teachers should make their own SIM, school administrators should include the use of SIM in their planning, and similar study that has more participants and wider in scope should be conducted by future the researchers.
Model Komparatif Penggunaan Faktor Produksi Petani Swadaya dan Plasma Pada Usaha Perkebunan Kelapa Sawit di Kabupaten Musi Banyuasin
Authors: Lifianthi Lifianthi , Oktarina Selly
Published: March 2022

ABSTRAK

Penelitian ini dilakukan di Kabupaten Musi Banyuasin, dengan sampel petani kelapa sawit yang diusahakan oleh petani swadaya dan plasma.  Hasil penelitian yang diperoleh menyimpulkan, terdapat perbedaan tingkat produksi dan produktivitas usahatani kelapa sawit yang diusahakan oleh petani swadaya dan plasma, hal ini dikarenakan adanya sistem pola pengusahaan yang dilakukan antara petani swadaya dan plasma yang berbeda. Faktor-faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap produksi  petani swadaya di Kabupaten Musi Banyuasin adalah luas lahan,  jumlah penggunaan pupuk dan penggunaan herbisida. Petani plasma faktor yang mempengaruhi adalah  penggunaan pupuk Urea. Pendapatan yang diperoleh dari petani plasma lebih besar dibandingkan pendapatan yang diterima petani swadaya.  Hal ini menunjukkan pengelolaan usahatani dan penggunaan faktor poduksi yang tepat dapat meningkatkan kualitas dan kuantitas TBS.

Implikasi kebijakannya adalah upaya peningkatan produktivitas TBS di kebun swadaya dan plasma, melalui perbaikan tata cara budidaya tanaman kelapa sawit dengan cara memperbaiki dan mengintensifikasi pemeliharaan kebun, dan melakukan pemupukan yang teratur sesuai dengan dosis yang sudah direkomendasikan. Usaha perkebunan yang sudah waktunya diremajakan, perlu diupayakan agar menggunakan bibit unggul yang potensi produktivitasnya tinggi, seperti bibit varietas Pisifera dan Tenera. Penetapan harga TBS oleh pemerintah yang wajar dan adil bagi kedua belah pihak, sehingga dapat membantu memperkuat posisi tawar petani. Diperlukan kerjasama antara perusahaan inti dan pemerintah dalam membangun, memelihara dan memperbaiki infrastuktur  transportasi yang digunakan untuk mengangkut  TBS agar lancar distribusi dan pemasarannya. Pemberdayaan dan peningkatan kualitas SDM, kelembagaan kelompok pekebun dan koperasi agar dapat melakukan kerjasama, bersinergi dengan petani dalam mengelola kelapa sawit agar dapat senantiasa menghasilkan produksi yang mendekati potensi tertingginya.
Dispositivos de crisis: procedimientos y mutaciones en la obra de Marco Godoy
Authors: Canales Contreras Rodrigo
Published: March 2022

Este artículo aborda el trabajo de Marco Godoy, viendo la evolución de sus estrategias y trazando una trayectoria al observar dos obras: Conversaciones (2016) y Al servicio de la visión (2021). Proponemos que estos trabajos responden a un entorno y una situación de hechos que definimos como crisis, contexto en el que sus obras se insertan como dispositivos capaces de generar subjetividad, en línea con una vocación por desdibujar la figura del artista-autor, entendido en un sentido teológico. Desde este enfoque, los dispositivos tienden una red de relaciones que pulsarían algunas claves de las distintas crisis que se engranan en el modelo. Nuestro acercamiento es de base cualitativa, vía entrevistas, análisis de contenido y documental, en virtud que identificamos y describimos obras y elementos que se encuentran anclados en la subjetividad y en el espacio simbólico de la sociedad. El enfoque teórico se apoya en el paradigma crítico, entendiendo que la realidad social opera en el conflicto. Organizamos este documento en cuatro momentos. En Introducción, establecemos cinco líneas de crisis en el sistema. Una segunda parte explica brevemente la Metodología que empleamos y las principales definiciones teóricas que desplegaremos. En tercer lugar, en el apartado Desarrollo, nos volcamos al análisis de dos obras de Godoy, destacando sus entramados con algunas de las líneas de crisis identificadas. Finalmente, en Conclusiones, defendemos nuestra hipótesis de que indica que las obras de Godoy deben ser observadas como dispositivos de crisis. Este trabajo surge de una investigación doctoral más amplia que lleva a cabo el autor.

Geopoética de la emergencia: el agua en el arte colaborativo
Authors: Amaral Lilian , Umpiérrez Marcos , Cerdá Josep , Buj Marina , Ortega-Frutos Andrea
Published: March 2022

El calentamiento global y los impactos en los ecosistemas ambientales, sociales y culturales han impulsado un cambio radical en el modo de pensar, producir y circular conocimiento; el foco de la presente discusión incide en el campo del arte contemporáneo y sus implicaciones sociales, políticas, culturales; las prácticas artísticas colaborativas  contemporáneas emergen en un escenario conflictivo y mutante, en que los campos disciplinares son convocados a entrelazamientos para enfrentar la complejidad del contexto global, sus transformaciones aceleradas; desde ahí se observa la emergencia de otros modos de producir y mantener las formas de vida; OPENLAB - residencia artística procesual propone reflejar colectivamente acerca de la dimensión poético-política contemporánea a partir del agua como procomún y elemento de cohesión planetaria; por medio de convocatoria internacional, abierta a artistas e investigadores, son propuestos espacios de experimentación poética en co-elaboración y en red, a fin de aportar respuestas para operar entre las tensiones “glocales” alrededor de los recursos humanos, naturales, científicos y tecnológicos, proponiendo miradas poético-críticas, en contextos de sostenibilidad situada y glocalizada en el presente, prospectando futuros posibles.
Prácticas Críticas: Cuerpo, Arquitectura y Representación
Authors: Díaz-Vera Mónica
Published: March 2022

Estudiar la teoría del cuerpo en la arquitectura no sólo implica el cuestionamiento de su significado en la disciplina, también pone en entredicho las representaciones tras la producción y reproducción de los discursos hegemónicos que lo constituyen y guían. ¿Cómo se ha vinculado la teoría y práctica de la arquitectura al cuerpo? ¿Qué cuerpos teorizan sobre los cuerpos? Una revisión crítica y feminista de resulta vital a la hora de desmenuzar los viejos paradigmas disciplinares invitando a repensar en cuerpo y su representatividad en el desarrollo de la producción teórica en la arquitectura.
Precisiones sobre la Casa Victoria Ocampo en Barrio Parque
Authors: Guerra Guillermo
Published: March 2022

En 1928, la escritora argentina Victoria Ocampo, encarga al arquitecto academicista Alejandro Bustillo la realización de la primera casa moderna de Buenos Aires. En paralelo, mediante una amiga intima, la escritora requiere a Le Corbusier que realice el proyecto de una casa con las mismas características programáticas, pero en otro terreno de la ciudad. La superposición de encargos generó confusión en la critica especializada que consideró fundamental la influencia de los dibujos de Le Corbusier en el proyecto final construido por Bustillo.
El presente articulo descubre la incompatibilidad cronológica de la relación propuesta por la critica, gracias al estudio de la correspondencia entre las partes y a su vez, hecha luz sobre las auténticas influencias de la casa indagando en las relaciones y personalidades de los involucrados en el proyecto.
The Cat and the Ball of Yarn
Authors: Caccia Gherardini Susanna , Olmo Carlo
Published: March 2022

Este segundo artículo cubre los años 1980-1987 de la restauración de la Villa Savoye y de la bibliografíasobre Le Corbusier, después de la apertura de la Fondation Le Corbusier al público en 1970, que permitió aestudiosos como Stanislaus von Moos, Carlo Olmo, Tim Benton, Jean-Louis Cohen y muchos otros estudiar yescribir sobre Le Corbusier y la villa. Otra iniciativa decisiva fue la publicación de los 32 volúmenes de GarlandLe Corbusier, que facilitó aún más el acceso a los dibujos. Por otra parte, la restauración de la villa, llevada acabo por Yvan Gury, también a través de opciones innovadoras de investigación e indagación sobre el tema,ha sido continuada por un extraordinario trabajo de mantenimiento de la villa. El punto de llegada que marca,incluso simbólicamente, la separación entre las dos líneas de investigación es el año del centenario (1987) conuna plétora de iniciativas que quizás también marcaron el fin de una forma de discutir entre los historiadores de laarquitectura. Por otra parte, la asunción por parte de Jean-Louis Véret de la responsabilidad de la restauración dela villa, que partió de un documento tradicional, que transformó en una auténtica caja china, el Carnet d’identité,planteó decididamente el problema de la autoridad de quienes intervenían en un edificio sobrefirmado como laVilla Savoye. No sólo eso, sino que el artículo constituye también el esbozo de una prosografía de los historiadoresque, a través de Le Corbusier y de la Villa Savoye, han construido su legitimidad como... historiadores de laarquitectura moderna, de hecho.
La règle du jeu
Authors: Burniat Patrick
Published: March 2022

Este ensayo toma como marco general una investigación dedicada a la aclaración del concepto deplanta libre en la obra de Le Corbusier. Más allá del significado original que le dio Le Corbusier, este conceptoes interpretado por el autor como un oxímoron. Esta figura discursiva, al asociar dos términos con significadosopuestos, crea un nuevo sincretismo, resultado de un juego de tensiones interno al pensamiento de Le Corbusierque puede considerarse inherente y específico a su modo de concepción, al menos en los años 20 y 30. Estaperspectiva es la que, en el presente artículo, subyace en la lectura de la metáfora del juego, muy presente en losescritos de Le Corbusier de la época, y que puede aportar a la comprensión de su obra.
Patrick Burniat. Le plan libre de Le Corbusier ou l’architecture mise en tension
Authors: Boone Veronique
Published: March 2022

Cet ouvrage monographique s’attaque donc à  une notion importante dans  le développement de la pensée de l’architecte, qui essaie de comprendre -ou plutôt d’expliciter- ce concept du plan libre dans le processus théorique de Le Corbusier, et d’en donner une place juste dans la carrière de l’architecte. Le développement et l’application du plan libre se situent dans une période très courte au regard de la carrière de l’architecte, entre 1927 et le début de1930. Malgré cette brièveté temporelle Patrick Burniat nous expose comment le concept est décisif pour l’architecte dans sa manière d’aborder l’innovation en architecture, en amont et en aval de ces années charnières. L’ouvrage donne tout de suite matière à réflexion. Premier constat -et ceci n’est pas anodin : Patrick Burniat nous démontre qu’un tel sujet d’étude ne se démode pas !  L’ouvrage est tiré de la thèse que l’auteur a soutenue en 2007. Quinze ans après l’analyse du concept du plan libre et le corpus établi par Patrick Burniat demeurent pertinents et d’actualités. L’auteur réussit, par une lecture du sujet, qui dépasse l’analyse formelle, de positionner le débat à un autre niveau, celui de la pensée de la conception. Deuxième constat, nous découvrons que l’auteur se fait pédagogue qui nous livre six « leçons » propres à se plonger et voyager dans l’univers du plan libre de Le Corbusier. La force de cette analyse provient  du fait que le point de départ n’est pas Le Corbusier, mais l’objet conceptuel du plan, ce qu’il nous raconte ; ce qui permet de ne pas tomber dans un exercice hagiographique. Troisième constat, quoique l’auteur se penche exclusivement sur le concept du plan libre, l’ouvrage nous livre peu de plans. Ce manque d’illustrations se justifie toutefois par le parti-pris de l’auteur de dépasser l’analyse, il nous rappelle d’ailleurs, à plusieurs reprises, l’importance pour Le Corbusier de ne pas figer le plan libre dans un système.
Association analysis of nucleotide polymorphisms in growth hormone (GH) and its receptor (GHR) with body weight in Californian rabbits
Authors: Gencheva Deyana Gencheva , Velikov Krasimir Petrov , Veleva Petya Marinova
Published: March 2022

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the influence of the genotypes of two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) – c.78C>T located in the growth hormone gene (GH) and c.106C>G in the growth hormone receptor gene (GHR) on individual body weight (IBW) during the growing period at 35, 70 and 90 d of age on a total of 107 weaned Californian breed rabbits. The restriction fragments obtained revealed that 74.8% of the rabbits carrying c.78C>T SNP and 52.3% of the rabbits carrying c.106C>G SNP were heterozygous, which indicated a moderate level of genetic diversity in this Californian population. Association analysis based on a single-gene approach revealed that c.78C>T polymorphism in the GH gene had a significant effect (P<0.05) on the weight at 70 and 90 d of age. The highest IBW (2530.4±66.6 g) was observed in rabbits carrying the c.78C>T TT genotype, and detected individuals were significantly affected by the dominance effect. Significant differences were observed between individuals with homozygous c.106C>G CC genotype and those with heterozygous CG genotype. The highest IBW (2462.0±198.3 g) was observed in rabbits carrying the c.106C>G CC genotype and detected individuals were significantly affected by the additive effect. A total of nine combined genotypes of c.78C>T and c.106C>G SNPs was found in the study, of which only four major groups (CT/CC, CC/CG, CT/CG, and CT/GG) were concerned in the diplotype analysis. Significant differences were observed between individuals with CT/CC and CC/CG genotype combinations, and between those with the CC/CG and CT/GG diplotypes. However, the highest IBW at 90 d of age (2447.2±213.8 g) was observed in rabbits carrying the CT/CC genotype combinations. The highest coefficient of determination found for individual body weight at 90 d of age (R2=10.8%) indicated a high effect of genotype combinations. In conclusion, the results obtained suggested that c.78C>T of GH gene and c.106C>G of GHR gene could be useful candidate genes to improve growth performance in Californian rabbits with potential application in rabbit breeding programmes.
Religious Advertising in Ukraine: Political and Social Contexts
Authors: Klymentova Olena Vadymivna
Published: March 2022

Religious advertising is a new phenomenon in the Ukrainian media space. Starting from 2019 to the time of writing, it has been right in the middle of political battles as a public platform that represents the idea of the Independent Ukrainian Church. Religious advertising with a strong political component has become part of the conflict discourse and is qualified by experts as manipulation. In religious advertising with its social convergence, the creative impulse is mainly formed with verbal means that shape a new cognitive style of gaining religious experience. The new features are represented in God's speech behavior, speech style, communicative situations with His participation, role distribution, genre preferences and the emotional background of communicative interactions. Ukrainian religious advertising strives to balance short-term political interests and long-term social interests along with eternal values.
Acute and sub-acute ocular manifestations in pediatric patients with COVID-19: A systematic review
Authors: Madani Sedigheh
Published: March 2022

Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has been the most challenging health problem in the last 2 years. Post-COVID-19 multisystem inflammatory syndrome of children (MIS-C) is a severe post-COVID-19 complication in pediatric patients. Ocular manifestations may be the first presentation of MIS-C, wherein prompt treatment may improve outcomes. In this systematic review, we aimed to summarize the acute and sub-acute ocular manifestations in pediatric patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19.

Methods: We included all online primary studies, with no language restriction and published between January 1, 2019 and November 18, 2020, reporting any acute or sub-acute ocular manifestations in children with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19. PubMed/MEDLINE was searched using the following MeSH and Emtree terms: “eye,” “ophthalmologic,” “ocular,” “vision,” “conjunctivitis,” “severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2,” “SARS-CoV-2,” “corona,” “2019-nCoV,” “COVID19,” and “COVID.” The eligibility and quality of the selected records were assessed by two independent reviewers as per the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Review.

Results: A total of 1,192 records were identified electronically. Seven papers were extracted from the reference lists of the eligible records. Thirty-six papers met the inclusion criteria and were categorized into two subgroups according to acute or sub-acute presentation of ocular manifestations. Among 463 pediatric patients with COVID-19, 72 (15.5%) had acute ocular manifestations. There was one patient with central retinal vein occlusion and another with photophobia and diplopia associated with meningoencephalitis. Among 895 pediatric patients with post-COVID-19 MIS-C, 469 (52.4%) had ocular manifestations, which only included non-purulent conjunctivitis.

Conclusions: Ocular manifestations have been reported in less than one-fifth of pediatric patients with acute COVID-19. Furthermore, conjunctivitis was the only ocular manifestation reported in half of the patients with MIS-C, and it may be missed easily due to its non-purulent nature. During the COVID-19 pandemic, pediatricians and health workers must remain vigilant for early detection of signs of this potentially fatal post-COVID-19 inflammatory syndrome.

Communication tools used by municipalities to communicate with external stakeholders : a case of King Sabatha Dalindyebo Municipality (KSD)
Authors:   , Fuzile Lethu
Published: March 2022

South Africa has experienced an increase in service delivery protests during the last decades. Ineffective communication tools are considered, inter alia, the factors fuelling these protests. The most important function of this study is to assess the effectiveness of communication tools used by King Sabatha Dalindyebo Municipality (KSDM) in the Eastern Cape province, South Africa. This study employed a mixed methods approach whereby a structured questionnaire was distributed to KSDM external stakeholders and an interview was conducted with the KSDM Communications Officer. The structured questionnaire was distributed to a 434 households; all the questionnaires were returned, leading to a response rate of 100%, and a sample size of 434. The Cronbach’s alpha score of the test items was 0.979 which exceeds the recommended Cronbach’s alpha of 0.700, indicating high reliability and internal consistency. Interpretation of findings in this study revealed that 32% of respondents felt that council meetings were the most common channel used by the community to communicate with the municipality, while the municipal website was hardly utilised (0.2%). Managerial implications for municipal communication managers is ongoing evaluation of the relationship of the municipality’s communications with the public. The study contributes to the field of academia regarding effective communication in municipalities and improving the municipal effectiveness of policy-making processes in community interventions
When information processing is demanding: the importance of performance feedback
Authors: Mir Suhail Rafiq , Khan Shah Mohd.
Published: March 2022

Working memory is a limited component of the cognitive system that requires attentional control to store information despite internal and external interruptions actively. There is a prolonged understanding that working memory capacity is a trait variable; and emerging evidence indicates that it possesses state variable qualities (i.e. momentary oscillations). Corresponding variations have been discovered in WM-consuming situations such as stress, anxiety, and intrusive thoughts. The current study investigated such phenomena using false feedback as a manipulation to investigate transient changes in working memory capacity. Participants performed a highly correlated working memory task, preceded by manipulating either negative or positive feedback, and then completed a second closely correlated working memory task. The results indicated that the manipulation affected participants’ performance on a subsequent second working memory task. Our results indicated that it is feasible to modulate the level of working memory capacity accessible on a limited basis. The findings of present study are pertinent to additional domains such as (social, educational, professional) in which information load may lead to stress and decrease working memory capacity and processing speed. The current research demonstrates the importance of feedback to enhance working memory capacity. Our study also recommends that the information load can be handled more efficiently to promote learning through different strategies.

Schiff bases are a proven moiety in antitubercular drug discovery and the antitubercular drug development. Drug discovery is a never-ending process due to evolving drug resistance by the bacteria, as a result, there is a need of developing new antitubercular drugs. In this continuous process of antitubercular drug discovery, new series of Schiff bases are synthesized using quinoline carbohydrazide upon coupling with different aldehydes in ethanolic media through multistep synthesis. These synthesized compounds were purified and characterized by different spectroscopic techniques. The molecules were in vitro screened for antifungal and antibacterial potential by Agar well diffusion assay, antitubercular activity by using microplate Alamar blue assay, and an attempt has been made to study the in-silico relationship between new Schiff base derivatives 4a-f and the crystal structure of M. tuberculosis (5V3Y) protein by molecular docking studies. Synthesized compounds 4a-f show good interaction with the crystal structure of M. tuberculosis protein (5V3Y) and fulfill ADMET characteristics in silico experiments. Among the compounds tested, compound 4d was found to be active against bacteria and fungi. Compound 4b was found to be sensitive against M. tuberculosis at 50 µg/mL concentration.

An efficient and regioselective synthetic reaction friendly to the environment has been described to synthesize various derivatives of pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinozolinone. Condensation of aminopyrazole (4a-m) with formylated dimedone (3) in the presence of KHSO4, under ultrasonic irradiation furnished 2/3-substituted 8,8-dimethyl-8,9-dihydropyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazolin-6(7H)-one (6a-m). This is a clean reaction, giving excellent yields with short reaction time. The structures were elucidated with the help of spectral and analytical data. X-ray crystallographic studies of a model compound 6a ascertained its structural configuration, crystal data for C12H12BrN3O (M =294.152 g/mol): Triclinic, space group P-1 (no. 2), a = 5.872(4) Å, b = 10.870(8) Å, c = 19.523(15) Å, α = 90.013(10)°, β = 90.009(11)°, γ = 93.838(11)°, V = 1243.3(16) Å3, Z = 4, T = 296.15 K, μ(Mo Kα) = 3.293 mm-1, Dcalc = 1.571 g/cm3, 37271 reflections measured (4.18° ≤ 2Θ ≤ 52.7°), 5073 unique (Rint = 0.2404, Rsigma = 0.2366) which were used in all calculations. The final R1 was 0.0596 (I≥2σ(I)) and wR2 was 0.1759 (all data).

Oxidative stress, caused by reactive oxygen species, is known to cause oxidation of biomolecules, leading to cell damage and oxidation of important enzymes, resulting in an unstable pathophysiological state. The antioxidant capacity of leaves, stems, and roots of Cordyla pinnata was determined by measuring the inhibition of the absorbance of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radicals by spectrophotometry. The polyphenol contents were determined with the same technique. The mineral contents were evaluated by atomic absorption spectrometry. The strongest inhibition of the DPPH radical after that of the control antioxidant (IC50 = 0.014 mg/mL) was obtained with the ethyl acetate fraction of the leaf hydroethanolic extract (IC50 = 0.201 mg/mL). For ABTS, the ethyl acetate fraction of the stem extract was more active (IC50 = 0.884×10-3 mg/mL) than the other extracts and ascorbic acid (IC50 = 0.915×10-3 mg/mL). The polyphenol content of the leaves, stems and roots extracts is between 66.33 and 142.67; 55.33 and 69.33; 67.67 and 116.00 EAT/g of dry extract, respectively. The contents of Fe, Na, Zn, K, Mg, and Ca are 0.0005, 0.0006, 0.0020, 0.0897, 0.0247, and 0.0273% for leaves, respectively. They are 0.0001, 0.0010, 0.0015, 0.0557, 0.0131, and 0.1357% for the stems, respectively. The mineral contents of the roots in the same order are 0.0002, 0.0013, 0.0013, 0.0140, 0.0096, and 0.0267%. Strong inhibition of free radicals and the chemical composition of various plant materials would justify the use of C. pinnata in the management of certain pathologies and nutritional deficiencies.

Bis(N,N-bis(thiophen-2-ylmethyl)dithiocarbamato-S,S’)zinc(II) complex (1) and (2,2’-bipyridine)chlorobis(N,N-bis(thiophen-2-ylmethyl)dithiocarbamato-S,S’)zinc(II) complex (2) were synthesized. Complex 2 (final product) was structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Complex 2 (C21H18ClN3S4Zn) crystallized in triclinic crystal system with space group P-1 (no. 2), a = 8.7603(4) Å, b = 10.7488(6) Å, c = 13.0262(7) Å,    α = 103.965(2)°, β = 91.913(2)°, γ = 104.944(2)°, V = 1144.07(10) Å3, Z = 2, T = 302(2) K, μ(MoKα) = 1.569 mm-1, Dcalc = 1.572 g/cm3, 14892 reflections measured (4.838° ≤ 2Θ ≤ 56.52°), 5570 unique (Rint = 0.0188, Rsigma = 0.0230) which were used in all calculations. The final R1 was 0.0810 (I > 2σ(I)) and wR2 was 0.2788 (all data). Complex 2 displays distorted square pyramidal coordination geometry. Crystal structure analysis of complex 2 shows that the crystal packing is mainly stabilized by C-H···π (chelate) and C-H···Cl interactions. Hirshfeld surface analysis was carried out to explore deeply into the nature and type of non-covalent interactions. The molecular and electronic structures of complexes 1 and 2 were also studied by DFT quantum chemical calculations.
Development impact evaluations in Pakistan: A country evaluation map
Authors: Crincoli Tim , Beveridge Ella , Griffith Taylor , White Howard
Published: March 2022

This map presents the impact evaluations contained in the 3ie Evidence Hub for Pakistan in a framework with interventions adapted from the Pakistan 2025 strategy and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as outcomes. The most well-represented area is human capital interventions and outcomes, most notably health, but also including many studies for education (including cash transfers). Other well-represented areas are gender and, to a lesser extent, microfinance. All these are areas in which a country-level synthesis may be of interest. Beyond this, the map mostly shows gaps—areas where there are no impact evaluations despite there being many interventions in these areas that are amenable to rigorous impact evaluation, such as rural roads and water management.

Published: March 2022

In recent studies comprising arts and neurosciences focus has been given to artistic objects in their final shape and appearance, generally paintings, and how viewers react to them. In this paper we suggest the artistic methods, with special emphasis in painting methods, as another approach to art in intersectional studies involving both areas of knowledge.

Abstract. Iodine compounds destroy ozone (O3) in the global troposphere and form new aerosols, thereby affecting the global radiative balance. However, few reports have described the latitudinal distribution of atmospheric iodine compounds. This work reports iodine monoxide (IO) measurements taken over unprecedented sampling areas from the Arctic to the Southern Hemisphere and spanning sea surface temperatures (SSTs) of approximately 0 to 31.5 ∘C. The highest IO concentrations were observed over the Western Pacific warm pool (WPWP), where O3 minima were also measured. There, a negative correlation was found between O3 and IO mixing ratios at extremely low O3 concentrations. This correlation is not explained readily by the O3-dependent oceanic fluxes of photolabile inorganic iodine compounds, which is the dominant source in recent global-scale chemistry transport models representing iodine chemistry. Actually, the correlation rather implies that O3-independent pathways can be similarly important in the WPWP. The O3-independent fluxes result in a 15 % greater O3 loss than that estimated for O3-dependent processes alone. The daily O3 loss rate related to iodine over the WPWP is as high as approximately 2 ppbv (parts per billion by volume) despite low O3 concentrations of approximately 10 ppbv, with the loss being up to 100 % greater than that without iodine. This finding suggests that warming SST driven by climate change might affect
the marine atmospheric chemical balance through iodine–ozone chemistry.
Evolution of the intensity and duration of the Southern Hemisphere stratospheric polar vortex edge for the period 1979–2020

Published: March 2022

Abstract. The intensity and position of the Southern Hemisphere stratospheric polar vortex edge is evaluated as a function of equivalent latitude over the period 1979–2020 on three isentropic levels (475, 550, and 675 K) from ECMWF ERA-Interim reanalysis. The study also includes an analysis of the onset and breakup dates of the polar vortex, which are determined from wind thresholds (e.g., 15.2, 20, and 25 m s−1) along the vortex edge. The vortex edge is stronger in late winter, during September–October–November, with the period of strongest intensity occurring later at the lowermost level. During the same period, we observe a lower variability of the edge position. A long-term increase in the vortex edge intensity and break-up date is observed during 1979–1999, linked to the increase in the ozone hole. A long-term decrease in the vortex onset date related to the 25 m s−1 wind threshold is also observed at 475 K during this period. The solar cycle and to a lower extent the quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) and El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) modulate the interannual evolution of the strength of the vortex edge and the vortex breakup dates. A stronger vortex edge and longer vortex duration are observed in solar minimum (minSC) years, with the QBO and ENSO further modulating the solar cycle influence, especially at 475 and 550 K: during west QBO (wQBO) phases, the difference between vortex edge intensity for minSC and maxSC years is smaller than during east QBO (eQBO) phases. The polar vortex edge is stronger and lasts longer for maxSC/wQBO years than for maxSC/eQBO years. ENSO has a weaker impact but the vortex edge is somewhat stronger during cold ENSO phases for both minSC and maxSC years.
