Narrativas visuales para enseñar el tiempo histórico desde una perspectiva rizomática
Authors: Bazán Sonia
Published: July 2021

¿Cómo enseñar a pensar sobre el tiempo, el tiempo histórico y sus múltiples componentes? Para recorrer sinuosamente esta inquietud nos apoyamos en la imagen, a la que entendemos como representación del tiempo. Como formadores de profesores en Historia para el nivel secundario y a partir del análisis y problematización acerca del uso de la imagen que realizaban las cohortes de practicantes 2018-2019, nos propusimos diseñar ejercicios de narrativas visuales para el desarrollo de lectura e interpretación de la imagen fija. Nuestras problematizaciones sobre las prácticas de enseñanza se proponen afianzar una formación inicial centrada en la educación histórico-social desde la búsqueda de la justicia curricular en los contextos donde los futuros profesores inician su ejercicio profesional y en este sentido la atención al tratamiento de la imagen como texto-fuente es una invitación a ampliar su formación con inclusión de la experiencia estética que implica ese lenguaje. En este trabajo presentamos en primer lugar el recorrido teórico sobre el tiempo y su enseñanza desde el cual fundamentamos nuestra la propuesta y luego desarrollamos los cuatro ejercicios para elaborar narrativas visuales.
Libros expandidos: prácticas de lectura de fotocopias y pdfs en las clases de historia
Authors: Massone Marisa
Published: July 2021

La mayoría de las investigaciones consideraron la lectura de textos escolares en la historia como disciplina escolar. Sin embargo, las fotocopias y pdf de libros de texto y de divulgación tienen hoy una presencia omnipresente entre los materiales de estudio, apoyo e investigación de los estudiantes. Son muy escasos los trabajos que han analizado sus particularidades como material educativo. Las fotocopias y los pdf, un soporte de lectura legitimado en las prácticas escolares, conforman “un nuevo tipo de existencia de libros” cada vez más extendido tanto por razones económicas como pedagógicas. ¿Qué características tienen estos “nuevos” materiales? ¿Cómo se leen fotocopias y pdf para enseñar historia?  ¿Cuáles son los sentidos de estas prácticas de lectura? Este artículo analiza las particularidades de estos materiales y los modos y sentidos de las prácticas de lectura en la historia escolar en una investigación cualitativa asociada al paradigma interpretativo.
Use of the Speed of Sound for Heights Below the Troposphere in Colombia to Determine the Distance of Lightning Strikes
Authors: Rubiano Jonathan , Chacón Cardona Cesar Alexander , Torres Sánchez Horacio
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Objective: This paper aims to conduct a study of the speed of sound in Colombia for heights below the troposphere, taking into account the temperature as a function of altitude for a tropical zone, in order to determine the distance of lightning strike.
Methodology: A speed of sound profile for Colombia was determined by analyzing data on altitude, temperature, and relative humidity in the country. The temperature equation as a function of altitude presented by NASA and the International Standard Atmosphere was taken into account to compare with the data obtained from meteorological stations located in different parts of the country (this stations measure information of temperature and other physical variables). Additionally, a sound profile map of Colombia was obtained using the interpolation in ArcGIS software.
Results: A map of the speed of sound in Colombia was obtained, thus finding the speed range in the country. Likewise, the temperature was determined as function of the altitude for Colombia (a country in the tropical zone), with which it is possible to have data closer to the real speed of sound in the place and determinate the distance of impact of a lighting in land.
Conclusions: The study of variables such as temperature, relative humidity, and altitude helped determine the speed of sound for Colombia. It was also possible to define a temperature equation as a function of altitude for a tropical country; with the speed of sound, the radius of impact of a lightning can be found.

Authors: Montealegre Torres Francy Liliana , Quintero Romero Dulce María , Czerny Miroslawa , López Velasco Roció
Published: July 2021

Objetivo: los cambios generacionales a través de historias, vivencias y significados.
Metodología: A través de un enfoque mixto se recopilo información por medio de entrevistas semiestructuradas y grupos focales los cuales fueron procesados en el programa ATLAS ti 7, estableciendo relaciones para la interpretación de resultados
Resultados: Se determinó que las nuevas generaciones de los caminos de San Luis el Plan y San Luis de Toledo tienen un alto nivel de responsabilidad hacia la conservación de los recursos del ecosistema, lo que lleva a acciones repetitivas en la nueva descendencia, todo ello a través de esquemas realizados por la Unidad Hermenéutica y relaciones directas de los discursos de los habitantes.
Conclusiones: Observar y analizar comunidades en contextos con características endémicas es relevante, dado que la comprensión de las relaciones con los ecosistemas permite apreciar las dinámicas de explotación de aquellos; esto favorece la conceptualización al formular planes y proyectos de conservación inclusivos. De lo anterior se desprende que contrastar la evolución de las prácticas culturales permitió establecer que los cambios generacionales han sido positivos frente a la apropiación de los recursos.

Stone quarrying has a considerable impact on land, water, air, natural resources, and social welfare. The objective of this study was to assess communities’ awareness of the environmental and social impacts of stone quarrying in Farta woreda, Northwest Ethiopia. The study used a cross-sectional research design. The 359 sample respondents were randomly selected. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected using household surveys, interviews, focus group discussions, and field observation methods. A binary logistic regression model was done to identify the independent variables of communities unaware of the impacts of stone quarrying. 62.7% and 57.38% of the surveyed households had aware of the impacts of stone quarrying social and environmental, respectively. Age of households heads from 31 - 40 (AOR = 1.272, 95% CI = (0.598-2.708), from 41 -50 age (AOR = 2.152, 95% CI = (0.947- 4.889), from 51- 65 age (AOR = 3.207, 95% CI = (1.405-7.321), Educational level of household heads, elementary school (1-8) (AOR = 2.985, 95% CI = (1.523-5.852), secondary school and above (AOR = 3.794, 95% CI = (1.841-7.820), Income of household heads from 10000 to 20000 birr (AOR = 2.254, 95% CI = (1.236 - 4.109), Income less than 1000 birr (AOR = 2.493, 95% CI = (1.419 - 4.380) were associated with unaware community on the impact of stone quarry. To solve present and future environmental and social problems, the study woreda Environmental Protection Offices should enhance communities’ awareness through awareness creation and environmental education program.
Distribution modeling of Rafflesia schadenbergiana and Rafflesia consueloea using multi criteria decision analysis-analytical hierarchy process in GIS
Authors: Ancheta Menzuela Hidalgo
Published: July 2021

The identification of potential habitats of the largest and smallest flowering parasitic Rafflesia in the Philippines is a prerequisite in conservation of species and preservation of their habitats which have been being degraded due to anthropogenic activities and climate change. This research aimed at revealing the possible habitat suitability for Rafflesia schadenbergiana Göppert ex Hieron and Rafflesia consueloae Galindon, Ong Fernando throughout the Philippines using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The selection criteria in this research were based on four parameters (elevation, annual rainfall, temperature, and land use / land classification) identified during the extensive literature review. The generated map shows that the optimal growth of the Rafflesia schadenbergiana can be observed with a temperature range of 20–22°C while Rafflesia consueloae can thrive within 24°C to 25°C. The importance of these criteria was evaluated using a pairwise comparison method and the final weight was computed for each criterion. Setting up of the values suiting the subject species was followed by weighted overlay analysis. The final output is the distribution and habitat suitability of the subject species.
Utilization of indigenous phosphate-solubilizing bacteria to optimize the use of coal fly ash for increasing available-P in an Ultisol
Authors: Purnomo Budi , Sutopo Novi Rahmawati , Nuraini Yulia
Published: July 2021

Coal fly ash (CFA) is a coal-burning by-product containing macro and micronutrients, and it is the potential material for improving available P in Ultisols. Phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) play a role in phosphorus solubilization. This study aimed at elucidating the potential use of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria to optimize the use of coal fly ash for increasing soil available P. This study was conducted in two stages, namely isolation of indigenous PSB from an Ultisol and application of the PSB and CFA to improve soil available P. Five indigenous PSB isolated from the soil had the ability to dissolve phosphate. Isolate B5 could dissolve 9.89 ppm P and had a 99.57% closeness to Pseudomonas stutzeri. The application of 20 and 40 t CFA ha-1 increased the soil pH by 4.2% and 7.2%, respectively. Increasing the dose of CFA decreased the content of available P by 50.6%. However, the combination of PSB and 20 t CFA ha-1 increased soil available P, plant growth, plant dry biomass, and P-uptake by plant.
Extreme insulin resistance during pregnancy: a therapeutic challenge
Authors: Kampmann Ulla , Ovesen Per Glud , Møller Niels , Fuglsang Jens
Published: July 2021

During pregnancy, maternal tissues become increasingly insensitive to insulin in order to liberate nutritional supply to the growing fetus, but occasionally insulin resistance in pregnancy becomes severe and the treatment challenging. We report a rare and clinically difficult case of extreme insulin resistance with daily insulin requirements of 1420 IU/day during pregnancy in an obese 36-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The woman was referred to the outpatient clinic at gestational week 12 + 2 with a hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) at 59 mmol/mol. Insulin treatment was initiated immediately using Novomix 30, and the doses were progressively increased, peaking at 1420 units/day at week 34 + 4. At week 35 + 0, there was an abrupt fall in insulin requirements, but with no signs of placental insufficiency. At week 36 + 1 a, healthy baby with no hypoglycemia was delivered by cesarean section. Blood samples were taken late in pregnancy to search for causes of extreme insulin resistance and showed high levels of C-peptide, proinsulin, insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1), mannan-binding-lectin (MBL) and leptin. CRP was mildly elevated, but otherwise, levels of inflammatory markers were normal. Insulin antibodies were undetectable, and no mutations in the insulin receptor (INSR) gene were found. The explanation for the severe insulin resistance, in this case, can be ascribed to PCOS, obesity, profound weight gain, hyperleptinemia and inactivity. This is the first case of extreme insulin resistance during pregnancy, with insulin requirements close to 1500 IU/day with a successful outcome, illustrating the importance of a close interdisciplinary collaboration between patient, obstetricians and endocrinologists.

Learning points

This is the first case of extreme insulin resistance during pregnancy, with insulin requirements of up to 1420 IU/day with a successful outcome without significant fetal macrosomia and hypoglycemia.

Obesity, PCOS, T2D and high levels of leptin and IGF-1 are predictors of severe insulin resistance in pregnancy.

A close collaboration between patient, obstetricians and endocrinologists is crucial for tailoring the best possible treatment for pregnant women with diabetes, beneficial for both the mother and her child.
New-onset thyrotoxicosis in a patient with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma: a diagnostic challenge

Published: July 2021

Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is the type of thyroid cancer that has the worst prognosis. It usually presents as a rapidly growing cervical mass that generates compressive symptoms. Its association with thyrotoxicosis is rare. A 76-year-old woman, with no contributory history, presented with a 3-month course of fast-growing cervical tumor, associated with tenderness, cough, and weight loss. Physical examination revealed goiter, localized erythema, and a painful and stone tumor dependent on the right thyroid lobe. Due to the malignant findings of the thyroid ultrasound, the patient underwent a thyroid core needle biopsy, which indicated ATC. Laboratory tests revealed leukocytosis, decreased thyroid-stimulating hormone, elevated free thyroxine (fT4), and increased thyroperoxidase (TPO) antibodies. At the beginning, we considered that the etiology of thyrotoxicosis was secondary to subacute thyroiditis (SAT) after SARS-CoV-2 infection, due to the immunochromatography result and chest tomography findings. The result of markedly elevated TPO antibodies left this etiology more remote. Therefore, we suspected Graves’ disease as an etiology; however, thyroid histopathology and ultrasound did not show compatible findings. Therefore, we suspect that the main etiology of thyrotoxicosis in the patient was the destruction of the thyroid follicles caused by a rapid invasion of malignant cells, which is responsible for the consequent release of preformed thyroid hormone. ATC is a rare endocrine neoplasm with high mortality; it may be associated with thyrotoxicosis, whose etiology can be varied; therefore, differential diagnosis is important for proper management.

Learning points

Anaplastic thyroid cancer is the thyroid cancer with the worst prognosis and the highest mortality.

The association of anaplastic thyroid cancer with thyrotoxicosis is rare, and a differential diagnosis is necessary to provide adequate treatment.

Due to the current pandemic, in patients with thyrotoxicosis, it is important to rule out SARS-CoV-2 as an etiology.

Anaplastic thyroid cancer, due to its aggressive behavior and rapid growth, can destroy thyroid follicular cells, generating preformed thyroid hormone release, being responsible for thyrotoxicosis.

Se pone de relieve la importancia histórica y pertinencia cultural del desarrollo de la traducción en Costa Rica, en particular de su literatura. Se exploran algunos antecedentes y referencias al asunto, se señalan algunos déficits significativos y se plantean cinco propuestas teóricas: existe una dependencia de las literaturas nacionales de su traducción; la traducción debe formar parte de las historias literarias nacionales; se debe explicitar la relación entre la historiografía política y social y la traducción; se debe considerar el patrimonio literario como parte de la identidad cultural; por último, la traducción debe verse como parte de la memoria de la humanidad y, por tanto, su relevante valor cultural.Emphasis is given to the historical importance and cultural pertinence of the development of translation in Costa Rica, and of its literature in particular. Some background and references are provided, and significant gaps are addressed, along with five theoretical proposals: National literatures depend on being translated; translation should be part of national literary histories; the relation between political and social historiography and translation should be explicit; literary heritage should be part of cultural identity; and translation should be seen as part of the memory of humanity, and in turn its relevant cultural value recognized.

Published: July 2021

À travers un répertoire extrait à partir de médias costariciens dans la période 2013-2018, ce travail établit les domaines où les gallicismes sont plus présents dans l'espagnol costaricien. De même, on indique que l’échantillon obtenu fait preuve de plus de xénismes que d'emprunts ; ceci est constaté avec des changements graphiques mais aussi grammaticaux et sémantiques. En plus, on explique que l’usage des gallicismes dans ces médias peut être associé à une recherche d’une expression plutôt prestigieuse.

Construcciones gramaticales y representaciones de la peste de viruela en testimonios de ancianos qom
Authors: Picón Estela Josefina
Published: July 2021

La peste de viruela es uno de los temas fundamentales que se abordan en Historias de los aborígenes tobas del Gran Chaco contadas por sus ancianos (2007), de Orlando Sánchez. Es presentada, unas veces, como algo espontáneo e inaccesible; otras, como una entidad perceptible y pasible de ser controlada.Desde la perspectiva de la lingüística sistémico funcional, el léxico y la gramática del español codifican los modos de referir a los sucesos en forma de estructuras que se nuclean alrededor de clases de verbos: los procesos que se muestran como autogenerados generalmente se formulan con verbos inacusativos, mientras que aquellos en los que interviene la voluntad de los agentes se construyen con verbos transitivos. En los testimonios que despliega el libro se combinan la perspectiva transitiva y la ergativa, y ambas dan cuenta de las formas de concebir la enfermedad y los efectos que produce en la comunidad qom.
La imagen simbólica del amaru en el espacio textual colonial
Authors: Gonzales Muñoz Francesca Ximena
Published: July 2021

La representación de la serpiente en las tradiciones mesoamericanas ha sido motivo de estudios interdisciplinarios, cuyo enfoque se encuentra principalmente dentro de estudios sobre cultura andina. En los periodos prehispánicos y coloniales esta imagen se representaba en las fuentes artísticas y arqueológicas, y una de las denominaciones más comunes que se encontraron fue su traducción en quechua “amaru”. Podemos señalar su vigencia con las tradiciones orales que han sido los principales gestores de su reproducción; al mismo tiempo, dentro del enfoque literario, ha sido mencionada en crónicas y textos narrativos reafirmando su importancia como símbolo de la tradición andina. Este artículo propone una aproximación a la simbología del Amaru con el fin de analizar su representación dentro de dos crónicas que son escrituras canónicas dentro de la literatura peruana.
Sociología de la sospecha y descolonización epistemológica en el “primer Quijano”
Authors: Montoya Huamaní Segundo Timoteo
Published: July 2021

El ensayo pretende mostrar que el “primer Quijano” de los años 60 adoptó una actitud de sospecha frente al sesgo ideológico de las ciencias sociales norteamericanas, que se implementaban en las universidades de los países del tercer mundo, en el contexto de la institucionalización de la sociología como disciplina científica portadora de la promesa de cambio social. Esta actitud de sospecha se tradujo en el uso de la noción marxiana de “ideología”, como herramienta de crítica a la orientación colonial/imperialista de las ciencias sociales. Ello sugiere y pone en evidencia cierta “unidad temática” ligada a un tipo de sociología que denominamos “sociología de la sospecha”. Dicha sociología tiene un carácter preparatorio y se desarrolla entre 1962 y 1965. Sin embargo, se prolonga y reaparece en otros contextos, pues se inscribe en un proyecto teórico más amplio de “descolonización epistemológica”, propuesta por el “último Quijano” en los años 90.
Polisemia y cognición del verbo ir en castellano
Authors: Silva Escudero Gisela
Published: July 2021

Se aborda la polisemia del verbo ir desde la perspectiva cognitiva del lenguaje. El objetivo fundamental del presente trabajo es determinar los diferentes sentidos o significados de la palabra ir. Resulta revelador definir la red de relaciones semánticas de esta forma verbal que, en principio, se asocia con realidades de tipo físico. Se detecta que, a pesar de que existen significados vinculados con otros dominios de la realidad que no son de orden físico, los mecanismos cognitivos metafóricos hacen posible la conceptualización de dominios diferentes como si se trataran del mundo material. En rigor, detectamos que se conforma una red semántica a partir de un significado central del cual irradian otros de carácter periférico.
Expresión artística popular en Lima: del afiche chicha a la estética chicha
Authors: Quispe Lázaro Arturo
Published: July 2021

El presente artículo examina los puntos iniciales de un proceso creativo que articula nuevas identidades populares en Lima, provienente del circuito económico y cultural de la música chicha. Estas identidades se expresan simbólicamente en la producción gráfica llamada estética chicha, que desde la segunda década del presente siglo se ha posicionado con nuevos bríos en la capital. La estética chicha es una diversidad de producciones gráficas y artístico-culturales que surgió aproximadamente en 2010, y tuvo su origen en el afiche chicha clásico que desde la década de 1970 se publican en las paredes de las casas de barrio en Lima. En el artículo nos centraremos en señalar el proceso que dio origen a las nuevas propuestas gráficas, el tránsito de un proceso creativo anclado a la expresión musical chicha a otro que partiendo de ella descubre un distinto tipo de sensibilidad ligado al arte gráfico, de una generación que se nutrió de la música chicha y que hoy se expresa con voz y sensibilidad propias dando un giro a las producciones culturales del siglo pasado. Todo ello originó una diversidad de creaciones artísticas, se expandió en la ciudad y la denominaron estética chicha.
Bipartite multi-tracking in MASs with intermittent communication
Authors: Huang Da , Fan Xiaolin , Hu Cheng , Jiang Haijun
Published: July 2021

In this paper, a novel cluster consensus problem related with the bipartition of the graph of multi-agent systems (MASs) is studied. To track the virtual leaders and reach the expected consensus, a new type of pinning consensus protocol with aperiodic intermittent effects is designed according to the graph structure, and a new kind of aperiodic intermittent communication is defined. Moreover, the protocol is applied to construct networked systems with intermittent communications. Lyapunov functional is applied to get sufficient conditions for solving the multi-tracking problem under a dual subsystem framework. Finally, some numerical simulations are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

Alpine ecosystems are especially sensitive to climatic changes which affect the relationships among glaciers, snow, vegetation and soils. Our aim was to examine how the variation in the abiotic environment affected soil properties and plant species distribution at regional and local scales. We sampled soil and vegetation along two transects set on the opposite-facing slopes (North versus South), from the alpine-nival ecotone to the snowline (Central Great Caucasus, Kazbegi, Georgia). We measured also soil temperature and controlled for the slope inclination. Multivariate ordination methods were used to link abiotic factors, soil properties and plant species distribution along the gradients. We found that ordination models were better resolved when soil properties were used as environmental variables instead of abiotic ones such as elevation, inclination and slope aspect. Soil pH and plant available potassium were the best predictors of plant species distribution in these habitats. We conclude that the models that account for the role of soils as a mediator between the abiotic environment and vegetation can more accurately describe plant species distribution at local and regional scales: a potentially important amendment with implications for the monitoring of the effects of climate change on vegetation at least in high mountain systems.

Authors: Lucky Anne W. , Whalen Jean , Rowe Susan , Marathe Kalyani S. , Gorell Emily
Published: July 2021

Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a group of rare genetic disorders that are characterized by fragile skin. Because of its rarity, many neonatologists may not be familiar with the current diagnosis and treatment recommendations for EB. The classification of EB was updated in 2020. The diagnosis of EB is now more heavily based on genetic rather than clinical or histologic features. In this review, we summarize the basic classification of EB, the preferred methods of diagnosis including a panel of next-generation sequencing for all types of EB, as well as specific immunofluorescence and electron microscopy of skin biopsies in special circumstances. We also review the principles of skin care for the newborn with EB and discuss the possible associated comorbidities including infectious, gastrointestinal, respiratory, and genitourinary complications. Lastly, we discuss the approach to educating the family about the diagnosis, prognosis, and care of an infant with EB and describe resources for the successful transition of the infant from the hospital to the home.
Creative Approaches for Assessing Long-term Outcomes in Children
Authors: Wu Ann Chen , Graif Corina , Mitchell Shannon Gwin , Meurer John , Mandl Kenneth D.
Published: July 2021

Advances in new technologies, when incorporated into routine health screening, have tremendous promise to benefit children. The number of health screening tests, many of which have been developed with machine learning or genomics, has exploded. To assess efficacy of health screening, ideally, randomized trials of screening in youth would be conducted; however, these can take years to conduct and may not be feasible. Thus, innovative methods to evaluate the long-term outcomes of screening are needed to help clinicians and policymakers make informed decisions. These methods include using longitudinal and linked-data systems to evaluate screening in clinical and community settings, school data, simulation modeling approaches, and methods that take advantage of data available in the digital and genomic age. Future research is needed to evaluate how longitudinal and linked-data systems drawing on community and clinical settings can enable robust evaluations of the effects of screening on changes in health status. Additionally, future studies are needed to benchmark participating individuals and communities against similar counterparts and to link big data with natural experiments related to variation in screening policies. These novel approaches have great potential for identifying and addressing differences in access to screening and effectiveness of screening across population groups and communities.
Assessment of tebuconazole exposure on bovine testicular cells and epididymal spermatozoa

Published: July 2021

This study is the first to investigate the effects of tebuconazole (TEB) on the physiological functions of bovine testicular cells and epididymal spermatozoa. Motility and plasma membrane integrity of spermatozoa exposed to TEB (0.001–100 µM) were evaluated at different incubation times (0–6 h), while TEB-induced spermiotoxicity was assessed after 24 h in cell cultures. Testicular cells, obtained from the parenchyma of bovine testes, were seeded at 1.0 × 104and 1.5 × 106cells/well in 96- and 12-well culture plates and incubated for 48 h in culture media containing TEB (0.001–100 µM) to evaluate cytotoxicity and hormone release, respectively. TEB did not affect the motility and plasma membrane integrity. However, significant spermiotoxicity occurred at higher TEB (1–100 µM) concentrations (P< 0.05) compared to control and lower doses. Although no dose caused cytotoxicity in testicular cells (P> 0.05), 1 and 100 µM TEB caused a significant increase in testosterone secretion (P< 0.05). As a result, high doses of TEB (1–100 µM) had slightly suppressive effects on spermatozoa; however, these doses had stimulatory effects on testosterone secretion by testicular cells. It appears that the disruption of hormonal homeostasis of testicular cells after TEB exposure may result in metabolic and especially reproductive adverse effects in bulls.

Taxes are the country's largest source of income. Cigarettes are one of the goods that are subject to excise, and the results of cigarette excise are included in taxes for the region. The regulation on cigarettes has two opposite sides and traps in quite a dilemma. On the one hand, the cigarette tax provides a large income for a region, but on the other hand, the government must also be responsible for the negative impact of cigarettes on the health of its consumers, which results in an increase in the budget for health facilities. Law Number 28 of 2009 concerning Regional Taxes and Regional Levies Article 31 on cigarette taxes that enter local government revenues applies a minimum of 50% to enter into health service funding. The object of this research is the Regional Revenue Agency (BAPENDA) of Java Province. West Java Provincial Health Office. This research uses descriptive research methods and a qualitative approach. The use of cigarette taxes in West Java has been appropriate in terms of the inclusion of cigarette tax results in the health budget, but the absorption is still not optimal. The West Java Health Office focuses on the fulfillment of medical devices to deal with the negative effects of smoking on society. Meanwhile, local governments should be better at absorbing the budget from cigarette taxes in order to be effective and efficient in their use, then there needs to be socialization to the public regarding the special cigaretttax allocation for the health budget.

“Gelo no pênis, exorcismo e medo” : gênero, sexualidade e religião em relatos de seminaristas e padres homossexuais
Authors: Guimarães Rossi Jean Pablo , Maio Eliane Rose
Published: July 2021

Este estudo está articulado a uma pesquisa de Doutorado, em andamento, e tem como objetivo principal discutir as questões de gênero, sexualidade e religião, que se atravessam nos relatos de padres e seminaristas. Para tanto, tomamos como objeto de estudo tais relatos presentes na reportagem publicada pela BBC News (British Broadcasting Corporation) em 2020, intitulada: “Gelo no pênis, exorcismo e medo: os padres gays silenciados pela Igreja no Brasil”. Nos valemos do pressuposto foucaultiano de poder como perspectiva base, fundamental para compreensão de como as instituições – neste caso, instituições religiosas – funcionam como dispositivos de controle e docilização dos corpos e das sexualidades. As análises evidenciaram a presença de diversos mecanismos de disciplinamento, punição e contenção da sexualidade nas instituições religiosas.
Features of Text Research in the Age of Internet-Mediated Communication

The current paper is focused on the research of Internet-mediated text as a special kind of oral-written discourse. The Internet has spawned an entirely new form of communication at the intersection of its conventional forms – a "written spoken language" which differs both from standard written speech and standard oral speech. Social network discourse as a result of Internet-mediated communication is characterized by a set of variant and invariant parameters that appear in the verbal and paraverbal characteristics of the digitally processed written text. The text as a product of the intellectual activity of a particular person is a complex structural formation with the laws of relations. The transition to a digital personality significantly affected the process of transmission and formation of the final digital product: text – intertext – quasi-text as a product of multi-stage processing of the initial version of the text. The main factors that characterize social network discourse presented in the article are reflected in the specifics of the texts generated in its process and which are considered as the result of the newest type of Internet-mediated communication. The article presents a paradigm change of linguistic expertology in relation to digital content, considers traditional and the newest approaches to estimating the key linguistic parameters that would allow to solve profiling issues on the basis of Russian speech.
Potential of Transformations in Polycode Internet Meme Within the Event-Related Context of 2020
Authors: Issers Oxana
Published: July 2021

The article deals with a specific polycode text that functions in the field of virtual communication – Internet meme. The focus is on its regular transformations. Considering possible methodological approaches to the analysis of this phenomenon, the author comes to the conclusion about the efficiency of using the methodology of intertext linguistic theory. The essential characteristic of a meme is its transformational potential, which allows to create new meanings and use this communication unit in a wide range of relevant contexts. The polycode structure of a meme determines the spectrum of its potential transformations by changing the verbal and visual elements. The material of observations was one of the most popular memes of 2020 – "Get up, Natasha, we dropped everything". The author identifies 8 meme transformations, which can be considered as regular: development of the visuals with the addition of a verbal element; contraction of the visuals with the same verbal element / transformation of the verbal element; the reframing of the context; pragmatic transformation; intertextual transformation, including the effect of meta-communication; reduction of the image with the same visual markers; reframing with the change of verbal and visual elements; adaptation of the meme in the media texts. The latter transformation indicates the successful inclusion of the Internet meme as a communication element of network coverse in modern discursive practices.

Abstract: Introduction: Clinical teaching is based on a real work environment, in professional practice settings, such as health services and units, under the supervision of the preceptor. Providing medical teachers with an assessment of their teaching skills is a powerful tool for improving clinical learning for students in training. In this context, the EFFECT (Evaluation and Feedback for Effective Clinical Teaching) questionnaire was developed by Dutch researchers in 2012 for teacher evaluation, being validated based on the literature about medical teaching in the workplace and incorporates the skills of the Canadian competency-based medical curriculum. Objective: To translate and cross-culturally adapt into Brazilian Portuguese and to validate the EFFECT questionnaire for teacher evaluation by Medical students. Method: Cross-cultural adaptation with the following steps: initial translation of the English version, synthesis of translated versions, back-translation, creation of a consensual version in Brazilian Portuguese, with adaptation, review, and analysis of content validity by an expert committee, pre-test with retrospective clarification interview, and reliability analysis by factorial analysis and internal consistency test (Cronbach’s alpha coefficient). Result: In the translation and back-translation stages, the disagreements were related to the use of synonyms and none of the items were modified in terms of their understanding, but in terms of adaptation into the Brazilian context. The evaluation of the expert committee showed the versions maintained the semantic and idiomatic equivalences of the content. Eighty-nine students participated in the pre-test. The internal consistency of the EFFECT questionnaire in Brazilian Portuguese was excellent for all domains, with Cronbach’s alpha coefficient ranging from 0.82 to 0.94. Conclusion: The translated and adapted version of the EFFECT questionnaire into Brazilian Portuguese is equivalent to the original instrument and has evidence of high validity and reliability, being able to constitute a national tool to evaluate the efficiency of clinical medicine teaching.

Abstract: Introduction: the coronavirus pandemic disclosed the need for safe orotracheal intubation not only for the patient, but also for the professionals involved in the procedure. Therefore, training and technique reviews became necessary. Objective: this article aims to propose the application of the Rapid Cycle Deliberate Practice (RCDP) strategy for the training of anesthesiologists in orotracheal intubation in people with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 and to present a guide for the application of this strategy in this situation. Method: This is a methodological study presenting the theoretical and operational aspects for the Rapid Cycle Deliberate Practice application and a guide constructed from the search for evidence published in journals and official recommendations published by the institutions linked to the Brazilian and international health area. Results: the main theoretical aspects reported are related to the three principles on which Rapid Cycle Deliberate Practice is based: maximizing time in deliberate practice, targeted feedback, and explicit psychological security. As for the operational aspects, it is highlighted that the training must be carried out with a maximum of six people. An error must be interrupted, prescriptive feedback must be given, and the task must be performed again until the participant reaches mastery. As for the procedure technical specificity, a guide to the application of the rapid cycle deliberate practice is presented with the sequence for the adequate airway management of hypoxemic patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 infection. Conclusion: it is concluded that the assessed instructional strategy showed to be promising for the training with mastery learning in all professionals who will perform the procedure of orotracheal intubation while facing the severe forms of COVID-19, minimizing the risk of contamination.
