Published: January 2024

Context and Justification: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an epidemic that came on abruptly and therefore affected the world in a short period. To respond effectively to this type of epidemic, healthcare facilities need to prepare properly before and during the epidemic. The level of preparedness determines the response to the problem and the effectiveness of that response. General objective: To assess the effect of COVID-19 on healthcare facilities’ preparedness against an epidemic of cholera and SARS-CoV in the Dschang health district. Methodology: This was an observational, cross-sectional descriptive study with an analytical component that compared the state of preparedness of healthcare facilities against an epidemic before and during COVID-19. The target was the healthcare facilities of the Dschang Health District. A questionnaire was administered face-to-face to those in charge of the healthcare facilities according to an exhaustive sampling of the healthcare facilities. Descriptive statistics were used to present data for the descriptive section. The preparedness progress was determined by comparing means and proportions of variables before and during COVID-19. Results: A total of 72 healthcare facilities were surveyed. Of these, 31 (43.1%) had a ward for the isolation of patients and 58 (80.6%) had a focal point responsible for epidemiological surveillance. Regarding access to water, hygiene, and sanitation, 45 (62.5%) had access to an improved water source and 72 (100.0%) had at least one toilet. During the outbreak, face masks and protective suits respectively were unavailable in 40 (54.1%) and 64 (85.5%) healthcare facilities. There has been a significant improvement in hygiene. The availability of hand washing points and hand sanitizers increased significantly from 23 (31.9%) and 13 (18.1%) to 71 (98.6%) (P-value = 0.000) and 54 (75.0%) (P-value = 0.000) respectively. Conclusion: Even though the availability of resources for epidemic preparedness remains insufficient, they have been significant improvements in the availability of hand washing points and hand sanitizers with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Published: January 2024

The study titled "The implications of Realism School in Printed Advertisements" delves into the significant themes related to reality and truth as a central focus in art, in contrast to other themes that rely on imagination. Realism School stands as one of the most prominent artistic movements that emerged as a reaction to Romanticism, which sought to escape reality and delve deep into imagination, illusions, and dreams. Realism, as a doctrine, places material, tangible reality as the primary consideration and envisions things clearly as they are in the real world. The research consists of four chapters. The first chapter presents the research problem, encapsulated in the question: "What are the reflections of Realism School in printed advertisements?" The objective is to uncover these reflections and define the key terms. The second chapter comprises two sections: the first discusses the foundations and concepts of Realism School, while the second explores the function and aesthetics of printed advertisements in social reality. This chapter concludes with indications of the theoretical framework. The third chapter elucidates the research community, research methodology, research tools, and the analysis of the research sample. Finally, the fourth chapter contains the research's conclusions.

The European Game
Authors: Mota Delgado Miguel
Published: January 2024

The long-awaited judgement of the Court of Justice of the European Union in Case C-333/21 - European Super League Company has finally arrived. There is a lot to unpack, especially with respect to developments in competition law. Constitutional lawyers will, however, find particular interest in how the Grand Chamber dismissed Advocate General Rantos’ pitch for a constitutional recognition of the European sports model based on Article 165 TFEU. This post focuses on this aspect of the European Super League judgment. It argues that while the Advocate General’s construction was rejected, the Court still used this judgement to further define its own constitutional understanding of the European sports model, as well as to solidify its role as the primary interpreter of that model.

Consciente de la importancia que tiene la formación de los valores morales en la presente investigación considero a los valores como una unidad y una entidad. El desarrollo de los valores permite la adquisición de nuevas y más complejas capacidades afectivas. Los valores favorecen los aprendizajes básicos. La adquisición de los valores en el niño y la niña es una necesidad todo niño y niña debe ser educado y formado a partir de la existencia de unos valores afianzados o fortalecidos, claros y bien configurados, con una coherencia que le proporcione credibilidad. En consecuencia, la formación basada en valores va a depender en gran parte de la sinceridad de vida de quien lo transmita; es decir, para difundirlo debe estar recubierto de principios éticos, morales y espirituales. Para ello, quien más que la familia; es decir, los padres al igual que los educadores para afianzar las practicas. En este sentido, la vida de ser humano y sus actividades diarias gira en torno a los valores, los cuales encierran en si muchos otros valores, entre los que destacan los familiares, algunos de ellos son: La bondad, la verdad, la justicia y la paz. Dentro de este proceso evolutivo es muy importante el periodo escolar ya que el docente, es el instructor para la capacitación y la maduración de los valores morales La madurez se constituye progresivamente gracias a la interacción de reactores internos y externos. Su dinamismo interior les asegura al niño y la niña una madurez anatómica y fisiológica en la medida que le sean proporcionadas, las condiciones nutricionales, afectivas, y de estimulación indispensables. El desarrollo físico del infante ha tenido mucha importancia. Aunque no negamos que el desarrollo físico y psicomotor, el desarrollo del lenguaje y cognoscitivo son de extrema importancia, también deseamos considerar el aspecto afectivo del aprendizaje en las etapas más tempranas del niño y niña.

Published: January 2024

In order to shed an understanding of the complicated mechanisms behind the health implications of tobacco use during pregnancy, this study examines the complex interplay between smoking and pregnancy on the levels of the biomarkers Galectin-3 and GDF-15, and to provide a comprehensive analysis, facilitating a deeper understanding and offering potential pathways for targeted interventions to mitigate health risks. Pregnant smokers had higher levels of hemoglobin and white blood cell counts, while both pregnant groups had lower platelet counts. Additionally, pregnant smokers had higher levels of total cholesterol, LDL, triglycerides, liver enzymes (ALT and AST), and C-reactive protein. These significant changes in hematological and metabolic parameters were found in a cross-sectional analysis involving 90 female participants who were divided into three groups: pregnant smokers, pregnant non-smokers, and non-pregnant non-smokers. Although there were slight variations in the levels of GDF-15 and Galectin-3 between the groups, they did not reach statistical significance. These results highlight the extensive and harmful metabolic alterations brought on by smoking during pregnancy, highlighting the need for focused actions to protect the health of both the mother and the fetus even in the face of largely stable biomarker levels.

Las propiedades medicinales de la tisana en la tradición «Con días y ollas venceremos»
Authors: Flores García Emely Marucehí
Published: January 2024

Las tisaneras, personajes que intervienen en la tradición «Con días y ollas venceremos», de don Ricardo Palma, eran aquellas vendedoras que ofrecían, en horas de la mañana, las tisanas, bebidas medicinales tan conocidas en el virreinato como en los primeros años de la república peruana, al punto de que podríamos decir que las tisaneras son las antecesoras de los emolienteros de nuestros tiempos. Ellas eran las herederas de la medicina tradicional, cuyos orígenes se remontan a la época preincaica e incaica, y las depositarias de conocimientos ancestrales sobre las propiedades medicinales de las plantas provenientes de nuestro inmenso patrimonio natural. Durante los periodos virreinal y republicano, la tisana tuvo gran arraigo en Lima porque solucionaba los problemas de salud que aquejaban a la población, por ejemplo, los resfríos, los dolores musculares, las afecciones respiratorias, la ansiedad, etc. Por ello, consideramos relevante investigar cuáles eran las propiedades curativas de esta bebida, la cual, en la medicina moderna, representa un gran aporte para la farmacopea, pues se sustenta en los conocimientos ancestrales sobre las propiedades terapéuticas de diversas plantas.
Sab y la abominable condición negra
Authors: Baker Gabriell
Published: January 2024

Desde la implantación de las colonias en América, la imagen negra ha sido rechazada y convertida en algo antiestético. Esta connotación negativa de la condición negra ha afectado la forma en que las personas negras se perciben a sí mismas. Esto puede comprobarse en la novela Sab (1841) de Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda, donde el protagonista fue influenciado por este sistema y se vio a sí mismo como un esclavo. En este trabajo se reflexiona sobre dicha autopercepción.

Expression Recognition Based on Gabor Filter
Authors: Wang WeiChen
Published: January 2024

We propose a comprehensive approach that integrates traditional methods with deep learning techniques to address the challenges of insufficient feature extraction, limited feature discriminability, and dimensionality catastrophe in facial expression recognition. This method begins by artificially extracting image features using Gabor filters to effectively capture relevant information within the images. Subsequently, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is employed to reduce feature dimensions, controlling feature space while eliminating redundant information introduced by Gabor feature extraction, resulting in a novel feature representation. The reduced-dimensional features are fed into a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), where multi-layered convolution and pooling operations extract abstract features and enable classification training. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves impressive performance on the CK+ dataset, with an accuracy of 98.98%, signifying a substantial improvement over traditional approaches.

Exploring the Complexities of Adolescent Appearance Anxiety: A Comprehensive Analysis
Authors: Yu Xiaohan
Published: January 2024

People’s concern for appearance is almost instinct, and pursuing beauty is a universal human behavior. However, the pervasive emphasis on appearance and the singularity of beauty standards has become the prevailing cultural trend, impacting everyone. Teenagers exposed to this cultural trend are more likely to develop appearance anxiety. Current research has progressively shifted its focus toward the concern of appearance anxiety, categorizing it within the realms of anxiety disorders and depression. This classification places the appearance of anxiety within the broader discussion surrounding psychological disorders. In this article, we will discuss the formation and impact of adolescent appearance anxiety from different perspectives. Personal, familial, and societal factors will all be explored in our analysis, as prior studies have not extensively investigated this dimension of adolescents’ sensitivity to appearance.Given that adolescent appearance anxiety can exert far-reaching effects on personal development, we will examine its consequences both in the short term and over the long term. In terms of the prevention and treatment of adolescent appearance anxiety, we will analyze traditional methods, such as psychological counseling and the regulation of social media use. Additionally, we will explore innovative approaches like art-based therapy, which may yield more favorable outcomes. In contrast to prior research, we have identified that teenagers’ sensitivity can diminish the efficacy of conventional treatment approaches, underscoring the distinct advantages of art-based therapies.

Investigation on how mechanical force transducer PIEZO1 controls the polarization of tumor-associated neutrophils and its relationship with colorectal cancer development
Authors: Li Xuan
Published: January 2024

Nowadays, during the polarization of neutrophils, the function of the mechanical force transducer PIEZO1 is still unclear. Our research shows that the PIEZO1 gene knockout in tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs) can suppress the polarization of TANs towards the N2 phenotype induced by TGF-β; Activating PIEZO1 by Yoda1 promotes polarization. We discover that cancer cell proliferation is enhanced by coculturing colorectal cancer cells with N2 TANs. On the contrary, when PIEZO1 is knocked out, the cancer development alleviates due to its prevention of TANs polarizing towards N2. Our research hints that mechanical force transducer PIEZO1 might be a new target spot during the treatment of colorectal cancer.

Authors: Yin Sonia , Zhu Xinyi , Cai Yufei , Ju Jingqi , Liu Shanxiao
Published: January 2024

Climate change has become a concerning threat to our planet. This essay explores the potential of employing the framing effect as a strategic tool to inspire individual involvement in mitigating climate change. Framing, representing certain perceived reality through language, can significantly influence decision-making. This research examines how positive and negative ways of discussing climate change affect people. It uses experiments and surveys involving 300 participants to understand how individuals react to different ways of framing the issue. Following psychological theories by Tversky and Kahneman, the study looks at specific aspects of framing, like actions and outcomes, to see how people respond. The goal is to understand how these framing techniques influence people’s engagement with climate change. The research assesses participants’ responses, considering demographic factors like age, gender, and political affiliation. The study aims to elucidate whether framing can bridge the gap between climate change awareness and action through statistical analyses and correlation tests. Preliminary expectations suggest that positive framing might inspire proactive measures, while negative framing could invoke fear-driven actions. By understanding the nuances of framing effects, this research sheds light on individual decision-making and offers vital insights into climate change communication strategies. Acknowledging the complexities of human decision-making, this study underscores the need for continued exploration, emphasizing the potential of framing as a powerful tool in the fight against climate change.
The Analysis of Statistical and Financial modeling based on Fourier Transform
Authors: Xu Yang
Published: January 2024

In this manuscript, we mainly focus on the contribution of the Fourier transform in studies of economics and statistics and show how this mathematical technique helps analysts build various analytical models to understand complex data behavior. We focus on explaining how the application of the Fourier transform is used in time series analysis and regression analysis with examples and demonstrating why the Fourier transform contributes to these two analyses. First, modeling techniques without using Fourier transform omit information in time series analysis, especially when dealing with large data. Second, utilizing the Fourier Transform can sufficiently decrease the complexity of calculation and provide estimation, such as covariance estimation, in stochastic process and time series analysis.

Authors: Zhang Ziheng
Published: January 2024

Decisions can be impacted by various biases and misleading information. Classical economics, as suggested by Adam Smith, posits that everyone behaves rationally during economic activities to satisfy their best interest and utility. However, in reality, we may make decisions emotionally, whether ordering in a restaurant or investing in the stock market. In this context, behavioral economics began to emerge in the world of economics.
In automotive design - the effect of MPG on vehicle fuel consumption
Authors: Shi Hongze
Published: January 2024

Fuel efficiency, measured in miles per gallon (MPG), and engine power, represented by horsepower, are two critical metrics that gauge a vehicle’s performance. Historically, a negative correlation has been perceived between these two variables: cars with higher horsepower were deemed to have a lower MPG. This study comprehensively explores this correlation using a dataset obtained from the UCI repository. Three regression models were applied: linear, quadratic, and cubic. Each was meticulously analyzed and evaluated using mean squared error (MSE) and residual plot to understand the data’s fit and the models’ predictive capabilities. Our research found that while the linear model provides initial insights, polynomial regression models, especially the quadratic one, can capture the relationship more succinctly, which revealed a relationship expressed as fx x x ( )= -+ 1.66 7.87 21.94 2 . The findings indicate that as horsepower increases, MPG decreases, but with diminishing intensity, suggesting an intricate balance between power and efficiency in automotive design.

Located in the northwest tip of South America, Colombia is strategically located near the Panama Canal, an international maritime artery. It is the only bi-oceanic country in South America and an essential gateway for land transportation in South America. However, investing in Colombia has risks and challenges, including political instability, security issues, and social inequality. Colombia has long been mired in civil war and armed conflict. In 2016, the Colombian Government reached a peace agreement with the Revolutionary Armed Forces, the People’s Army of Colombia, ending a match that had lasted more than 50 years. Despite the achievements of the peace process, other competitions and armed groups still exist in the country. This paper aims to provide an overview of the investment environment in Colombia to assist investors in making informed decisions.
Subscription Economy: impacts on inequality
Authors: Zhang Yueqian
Published: January 2024

As more companies and services shift from the traditional one-time purchase to subscription-based services or a combination of both. This is primarily due to subscription-based companies growing 3.7 times faster than the companies in the S&P 500. The economy simultaneously undergoes a gradual transformation. Although subscription-based service seems to give consumers more choices about the products they buy, it increases the overall prices they pay for using the same product over a prolonged period. The increase might seem negligible over small periods, but its impact is significant over longer periods and acts as a lump-sum tax. Its properties as a lump-sum tax raises the question of whether it worsens inequality, like other regressive taxes, by disproportionally lowering poor people’s disposable income and increasing the companies’ profits. This study has found a weak correlation between SEI (Subscription Economy IndexTM) and inequality, specifically, the Gini coefficient and the U.S.’s top 0.1% net worth. The SEI is a measurement from Zuora.com’s quarterly report that seeks to analyze the growth and resilience of businesses in the subscription sector and view trends of the subscription economy. The correlation is primarily weak because the SEI grows faster than the Gini coefficient and the top 0.1% net worth by a numerical percentage of about 20% each year. However, whenever the percent change in SEI grows, so does the percent change in the Gini coefficient and top 0.1% net worth, and vice versa.
Portfolio Optimization Project
Authors: Long Yufei
Published: January 2024

This project aims to reduce the non-Gaussian effects and assess portfolio optimization using the Index Model and Markowitz Model for the recent 20 years of daily total return rate for the ten renowned stocks of the first group. It is important to recognize that the S&P 500 equity index and 1-month Fed Funds rate are used as a proxy for the risk-free rate. The daily data is aggregated into the monthly observations, and optimization inputs are calculated based on the monthly observations. In addition, using optimization inputs for the Index Model and Markowitz Model, regions of different permission portfolios are identified.
An Analysis of the Relationship between River Engineering and Water Conservancy Construction and State Capacity in the early and middle periods of the Qing Dynasty (A.D. 1644 - A.D. 1820)
Authors: Zhang Shuhai
Published: January 2024

The study in this paper focuses on the relationship between the financial situation related to river engineering and water conservancy and state capacity in the early and middle periods of the Qing Dynasty. There have been some controversies in the study of state capacity in the Qing Dynasty. Taking the governance of the Yongding River in the Kangxi Dynasty and the governance of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Seawalls in the Yongzheng and Qianlong Dynasties as examples, this paper argues that in the river engineering and water conservancy construction in the early and middle periods of the Qing Dynasty, the expenditures were not only supported by the part of the total amount of regular fiscal income, but by the positive extra revenue other than regular fiscal income. This fact suggests that the state’s capacity in the early and middle periods of the Qing Dynasty was recognizable in handling practical affairs and might not be as weak as it appeared.
Mitochondrial-Targeted Small Molecules: A Promising Approach for Alzheimer’s Disease Treatment and Neuroprotection
Authors: Liu Qianzi
Published: January 2024

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative condition characterized by memory loss, cognitive decline, and personality changes. Recent research has shed light on the critical role of mitochondria in AD pathogenesis, specifically their involvement in the production and aggregation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) and phosphorylated tau. Mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of AD, with reactive oxygen species (ROS) playing a central role. Oxidative stress resulting from mitochondrial ROS production is closely linked to AD’s early pathogenesis. Furthermore, the interaction between phosphorylated tau and Aβ disrupts mitochondrial function, hindering energy production and leading to synaptic dysfunction. This article explores the promising advancements in mitochondria-targeted small molecules as potential treatments for AD.
Am I a Girl or a Boy -An Analysis of Gender Misperception in the Film Farewell My Concubine
Authors: Shao Yutong
Published: January 2024

Farewell My Concubine, a 1993 Chinese drama film directed by Chen Kaige and starring Leslie Cheung, Zhang Fengyi, and Gong Li, is adapted from the novel of the same name by Leslie Cheung. Douzi, a boy whose stage name is Cheng Dieyi, plays the concubine Consort Yu, and his senior fellow trouper Shitou, whose stage name is Duan Xiaolou, plays the hero Xiang Yu in Peking Opera Farewell My Concubine. In life, Cheng Dieyi falls in love with Duan Xiaolou just like Consort Yu deeply loves Xiang Yu. In traditional Eastern culture and Western culture, gender is binary, that is, a person is either male or female, and there is nothing in between. In the traditional Chinese society with a dichotomous view of gender, Cheng Dieyi has a queer tendency. Based on Sigmund Jacques’ and Lacan’s theories of the Oedipus complex and castration complex, this article explores how Cheng Dieyi’s experiences of “castration” leads to his gender misperception in three aspects: Cheng Dieyi’s family background, troupe experience, and self-fantasy.
