Authors: Touriz Bonifaz María Antonieta , Santos Paladines Paulina Rocío , San Lucas Sara Falconi , Tobar Moran Marcos Rodolfo
Published: October 2021

La enfermedad de Chagas es endémica en el Ecuador. En la actualidad, se ha confirmado casos en quince de sus provincias, entre las que se destaca la provincia de Guayas. La enfermedad de Chagas es inflamatoria e infecciosa y la ocasiona un parásito llamado Trypanosoma cruzi, que se encuentra en las heces del insecto triatomino. Se calcula que en el mundo hay entre 6 y 7 millones de personas infectadas por el Trypanosoma cruzi, la mayoría de ellas en América Latina. En Ecuador, la provincia de Guayas es un de las principales zonas endémicas del país. El objetivo de la presente investigación consiste en plasmar la caracterización epidemiológica de la enfermedad de Chagas, en la provincia de Guayas del Ecuador. El modelo de investigación es una revisión de tipo documental bibliográfico. De la revisión realizada se encontró que el parásito T. cruzi, en el vector T. dimidiata, se encuentra con altas concentraciones en la provincia de Guayas. La vivienda, así como la presencia de animales y nidos de aves, son factores predominantes en la zona. Asimismo, se puede concluir que no existe diferencia significativa que relacionen factores tales como el sexo, la edad, el nivel educativo u ocupación, con la enfermedad de Chagas. La ocupación de ranchos, los cuales condicionan el nicho ideal para la colonización de triatominos, es otro de los factores en esta provincia que se relaciona con la enfermedad. Asimismo, la existencia de mascotas domésticas en el peridomicilio y/o domicilio, constituye un factor de riesgo importante. El estudio de estos factores epidemiológicos de la enfermedad de Chagas resulta fundamental para el desarrollo de estrategias preventivas y el diagnóstico temprano, que repercuta en la disminución de las tasas presentes actualmente en la provincia de Guayas.
Causas de absceso del musculo psoas
Authors: Ronquillo Saavedra Alex Armando , Rodríguez Cabrera Daniela Natalie , Guerrero Cedeño Carlos Bruno
Published: October 2021

Los abscesos del músculo psoas representan una patología con muy baja incidencia a nivel mundial, por lo que se requiere de mucho diagnóstico para su abordaje y generalmente se relaciona con enfermedades gastrointestinales. El diagnóstico es tardío debido a que sus manifestaciones clínicas son poco específicas, lo que trae como consecuencia, un pronóstico particularmente malo en la mayoría de los casos. Se presenta como una acumulación de pus que se ubica en el musculo psoas iliaco y es producida por la continuidad desde estructuras adyacentes o por diseminación hematógena, sin embargo, se considera que su etiología es diversa. En tal sentido, es sumamente importante tomar en consideración la posibilidad de que sea de origen abdominal la presencia de esta patología, debido a que el drenaje quirúrgico urgente y agresivo es el único tratamiento eficaz en estas situaciones. De acuerdo con la baja incidencia o poca frecuencia de la aparición de este tipo de abscesos, se tiene como objetivo, evaluar sus causas a través, de una revisión bibliográfica donde se puntualice el tema y se presenten una serie de casos disponibles en la literatura que dan cuerpo y brindan información importante al respecto.

Causas y consecuencias de la infertilidad en las mujeres
Authors: Ávila Pulla Lina Alicia , Chimbo Villacis Cristian Javier , Gutiérrez Arias Jonathan Israel , Chuquilla García Edgar Alejandro , Plasencia Merino Rosa Modesta
Published: October 2021

La infertilidad es una barrera universal que afecta a personas de todo el mundo y su causa e importancia pueden variar según la ubicación geográfica y la condición socioeconómica. Cuando una mujer tiene relaciones sexuales frecuentemente y sin protección medida por un año aproximadamente y no logra quedar embaraza es porque posee incapacidad o padece de infertilidad. La conciencia de la infertilidad es el primer paso para mantener el poder del embarazo en la modificación del estilo de vida. Actualmente, los trastornos del sistema reproductivo, los síntomas de enfermedades de transmisión sexual y los trastornos hormonales se encuentran entre las causas de infertilidad tanto en hombres como en mujeres. Adicionalmente, el estilo de vida como la obesidad, la nutrición, el tabaquismo y el consumo de alcohol, el uso de teléfonos móviles, la violencia sexual y la ansiedad son considerados como factores causantes de infertilidad. En tal sentido, tener un estilo de vida saludable, realizar pruebas y chequeos regulares bajo supervisión médica y mantener un peso corporal normal puede prevenir problemas de fertilidad. La infertilidad en las mujeres se tratará con medicamentos, cirugía menor, procedimientos laparoscópicos y terapia hormonal y evitará el fracaso temprano del embarazo.
Síntomas, causas y tratamiento de una mesenteritis esclerosante
Authors: Basurto Macías Gema Gabriela , Yamberla Luna Rodrigo Isaac , Hidrovo Giler Roberth Andrés , Orozco Macías Allisson Nathalie , Ibarra Granda Joselyn Gisella
Published: October 2021

El término mesenteritis esclerosante, hace referencia a una enfermedad idiopática, rara, de curso crónico, caracterizada por cambios inflamatorios y fibróticos en el tejido adiposo del mesenterio del intestino. Se desconoce su etiología, pero se cree que puede ser el resultado de una respuesta inflamatoria inespecífica del mesenterio a una agresión alérgica, química, térmica, infecciosa, autoinmune o quirúrgica, aunque no existe evidencia científica que sostenga esta hipótesis. El presente artículo describe y compara diferentes literaturas sobre Síntomas, causas y tratamiento de una mesenteritis esclerosante. Para ello, se recolecta esta información de diferentes fuentes bibliográficas adquiridas de bases de datos (SCOPUS, PubMed, Biblioteca Cochrane, Google Scholar) valorando la calidad y veracidad de la información recopilada, así como la actualidad del contenido. Los dos casos de estudio aquí presentados, confirman que esta afección se presenta principalmente en hombres y que el diagnóstico para determinarla puede ser confuso por la similitud de otras patologías, lo que conlleva a la realización de múltiples estudios (incluidos procedimientos laparoscópicos). En el contexto del tratamiento a menos que haya una obstrucción intestinal en donde se requiere un procedimiento quirúrgico (derivaciones, resecciones parciales o colostomía) no existe un tratamiento específico, aunque hay investigaciones que sugieren fármacos inmunosupresores e inmunomoduladores.

Published: October 2021

En pacientes de mediana y avanzada edad se empiezan a manifestar distintos tipos de afecciones corporales que, en ocasiones, se convierten en un reto medico conseguir el origen. Los dolores articulares, las afecciones gastrointestinales, perdida de peso es parte de los síntomas de la vejez, pero en ocasiones estos síntomas están relacionados a enfermedades tratables o curables que con un diagnostico certero y temprano pueden mejorar la calidad de vida de los pacientes. Se trata de una investigación bibliográfica, cualitativa en donde se buscan las publicaciones científicas disponibles respecto a la “enfermedad de Whipple” y las “trombosis venosas profundas” pretendiendo encontrar relación entre las manifestaciones clínicas de las trombosis como un indicio de la presencia de la Enfermedad de Whipple. Encontrar una relación entre ambas afecciones seria parte de un caso específico pues, estadísticamente ambas enfermedades se pueden presentar luego de los 40 años de edad, pero en el caso de la trombosis venosa profunda suele presentarse mayormente en personas de sexo femenino, mientras que la enfermedad de Whipple en personas de sexo masculino. Sería lógico en dado caso remitirse a las manifestaciones clínicas de ambas enfermedades para encontrar un camino expedito hacia el diagnóstico oportuno, para la trombosis venosa profunda la escala de Wells puede ayudar y en caso de la enfermedad de Whipple identificar no solo el dolor articular sino la perdida de peso que suele ser la muestra mas frecuente de la presencia bacteriana en el afectado. Considerando lo conocido de ambas enfermedades se puede identificar que poseen en común el dolor en las articulaciones, sobre todo en las inferiores, pero no es excluyente, por tanto, no se encuentran hallazgos en la investigación que indique que un diagnóstico de trombosis venosa profunda sea el camino inicial para descubrir la Enfermedad de Whipple.
A. Irving Hallowell’s research on the Ojibwe animism
Authors: Żerkowski Michał
Published: October 2021

Alfred Irving Hallowell (1892–1974), a seasoned researcher of the Ojibwe culture, is known today primarily as a precursor of the anthropological theory of the “new animism”. A student of Franz Boas and a friend of Edward Sapir, he was not only a prominent figure of the culture and personality school, but also proved to be one of the most interesting psychological anthropologists of the 20th century. His works on the Ojibwe indigenous taxonomy prefigured the achievements of ethnoscience, and those on the evolution ofhuman behaviour adumbrated the development of sociobiology. Conducted in the 1930s, Hallowell’s fieldwork among the Berens River Ojibwe resulted in numerous academicpapers, one of which – the 1960 Ojibwa Ontology, Behaviour, and World View – years later became particularly influential in anthropological research on animism. This article presents Hallowell’s intellectual biography and discusses his research on the Ojibwe culture along with the concepts he used or developed, concepts that for many researchers became the key to unlocking new conceptualizations of the problem of animism.
La relación de depredación entre humanos y no-humanos en la ontología de los q’ero de la cordillera de Vilcanota, Perú
Authors: Przytomska-La Civita Anna
Published: October 2021

The anatomy of human and non-human (apus, pachamamas, the dead etc.) relations and dependencies manifests itself in different types of daily practices and rituals (agri-culture and herding, mobility, alimentation, ritual songs, shamanic and medicinal practices) and reveals ontological schemes of exchange and predation. Interestingly, both schemes can be expressed through the idiomatic expression of “feeding”. This implies that the purpose of relationships between personal beings is to feed each other through reciprocal practices (exchange) or feed on others (predation). In this paper, we analyze the scheme of predation among the Q’eros, which takes the forms of seduction, sexual intercourse, cannibalism and kidnapping. Different types of predation were grouped into three modalities (oblivion, breaking the taboo and otherness) that constitute the axis of the narrative and, at the same time, represent the origins or causes of these relations.
Post-socialist animism: personhood, necro-personas and public past in Inner Asia
Authors: Szmyt Zbigniew
Published: October 2021

This paper investigates the relationship between animism and public past in post-socialist Inner Asia. The analysis was based on three case studies highlighting key features of the relationship between local conceptions of personhood, non-human agency, and their role in structuring native visions of the past: (1) negotiations between families and the spirits  of their ancestors – victims of communist purges in Mongolia, (2) a powerful necro-persona that allows local communities to gain political subjectivity and undermine conventional post-Soviet historical narratives, and (3) the return of the undead lama Itigilov that caused Buddhist revival in Buryatia. Posthuman agents have been involved in mythopraxis,  through which native regimes of historicity are established.
Jedzenie regionalne, lokalne czy „swoje” – tożsamościowy wymiar praktyk jedzeniowych na Podlasiu

Published: October 2021

This article explores the connections between identity and foodways of farmers and small-town inhabitants in Eastern Poland, showing that food may serve as a strong metaphor of identity and the way of building ties and upholding community. The main food idioms are linked with the idea of „our” food, food which is local, familiar and familial, and the notions based on the connection with a certain region (terroir), along with with its history, people, environment, taste qualities. These are embedded in the locality and connect ideas of food, health, relationality and moral values (work), which are key building blocks of local identity.

Authors: Wayangkau Izak Habel , Mekiuw Yosehi , Rachmat Rachmat , Suwarjono Suwarjono , Hariyanto Hariyanto
Published: October 2021

The use of IoT in precision agriculture is very important in the process of increasing crop production. The local supply of onions in Merauke Regency have not fulfilled the demand, thus the high price in the market. Most of the demand for onion are still fulfilled from outside the region, as the production of local farmers has not been optimal. The weather has been identified as one of the factors that affect the quality of onion production. This study aims to create an automatic monitoring system based on an Arduino microcontroller to measure soil moisture and temperature in onion patches. The method used is to design an automatic monitoring device to determine soil moisture and temperature so that it can provide information about the growth and maintenance of onion patches. The Arduino microcontroller is connected to a reading sensor that is integrated with component devices to maintain a stable temperature and soil moisture. All devices and components are designed to operate in a custom-made environment in the form of a greenhouse prototype. The results of this study indicate that the tool and system are capable of capturing the soil moisture and temperature, as well as maintaining the soil moisture and temperature within certain parameters, in cloudy, wet and hot weather conditions. Doi: 10.28991/esj-2021-SP1-07 Full Text: PDF

Membranous nephropathy complicating relapsing polychondritis: A case report
Authors: Christopher Rice , Vatsalya Kosuru , John Jason White , Christine Van Beek , Rachel Elam , Michael Clemenshaw , Laura Carbone , Leighton James
Published: October 2021

Background: Relapsing polychondritis is a rare systemic disease characterized by recurrent inflammation, and often destruction, of cartilaginous tissues. Renal manifestations are rare. Membranous nephropathy complicating relapsing polychondritis has been reported only once previously, and there is no standardized treatment for membranous nephropathy associated with relapsing polychondritis. Case presentation: A 67-year-old Caucasian man with a history of chronic renal disease presented with 9 months of progressive dyspnea on exertion and 5 months of erythema, pain, and collapse of auricular cartilage. Imaging studies confirmed active inflammation of laryngeal, auricular, and costal cartilage and he was diagnosed with relapsing polychondritis. Patient had longstanding proteinuria and renal biopsy demonstrated membranous nephropathy. Patient initially showed renal and respiratory improvement with etanercept, a tumor necrosis factor alpha inhibitor, treatment. However, subsequent disease and treatment-related complications led to a progressive overall clinical decline and patient died approximately 1 year following relapsing polychondritis diagnosis. Conclusion: Membranous nephropathy may rarely complicate relapsing polychondritis. In our case, both the cartilaginous inflammation and the renal disease improved after treatment with tumor necrosis factor alpha blockade, however complications of existing airway disease led to recurrent hospitalizations and eventually death.

Published: October 2021

Biscuits are foodstuffs that are consumed all over the world as snacks on wide range developing countries where protein and caloric malnutrition are prevalent. There is therefore need to feed on functional foods with improved formulations and substantial health benefits by world nutrition bodies due to different health problems related to food consumption. This study was carried out to evaluate the proximate and functional properties of the flour as well as evaluate the biscuit samples for physical properties, anti-nutrient content, minerals composition and anti-oxidant properties of biscuits produced from wheat flour fortified with African yam bean tempeh flour. The physical parameters varied from 3.12 – 4.22mm, 1.30 –2.81, 4.59 – 6.89g, 1.5 – 2.4mm and 1.25 – 3.65N for diameter, spread ratio, weight, height, and break strength. The proximate composition of the flour varied from 0.05 – 3.46%, 12.6 – 28.74%, 0.84 – 3.18%, 1.37 – 3.76%, 58.64 – 84.74% and 2.22 – 11.4% for ash, protein, crude fiber, crude lipid, carbohydrate and moisture of the flour, respectively. The functional properties ranged from 14.66 – 20.2%, 0.70 – 0.78 (g/ml), 0.71 – 10.57%, 18.08 – 41.03% and 0.71 – 0.74% for water absorption capacity, bulk density, oil absorption capacity, foam capacity and emulsion capacity, respectively. The anti-nutritional properties ranged from 0.067%, – 0.437mg/100g, 0.013 – 0.067%, 0.112 – 0.146%, 0.015 – 0.038%, 0.168 – 0.401, 0.040 – 0.401%, 0.017 – 0.040% for tannin, phytate, saponin, oxalate, alkaloid, phenol and flavonoids, respectively. The anti-oxidant properties were in the range of 0.081 – 0.465%, 0.026 – 0.047%, 0.035 – 0041 mg/100g for scavenging activity, reducing power assay and Beta carotene, respectively. The mineral contents - iron, magnesium, calcium and phosphorus ranged from 4.18 – 13.06, 2.70 – 32.17, 61.04 – 201.42 and 3.76 – 30.42%, respectively. These results suggest that the fortification of wheat flour with Africa yam bean flour can improve the nutritional quality of biscuits.

Relasi Akal Budi dan Iman dalam Apologetika dan Pewartaan Injil
Authors: Stevanus Kalis
Published: October 2021

Abstract. There are still Christians who contrast the relationship between apologetics and the proclamation of the Gospel and the role between common sense and faith in these two fields. This paper was intended to study the relationship between apologetics and evangelization, as well as to look up the significance of the role of common sense and faith in the effective task of apology and evangelization. This discussion used a literature study approach that was descriptive-analytic presented. In this discussion, it could be concluded that apologetics and evangelization are God’s mandates which are absolutely fulfilled by every believer whenever and wherever they are. Meanwhile, common sense and faith are two different but not contradictory things where both have their respective places and roles in the practice of apologetics and evangelization. Without common sense and faith, the practice of apologetics and evangelization cannot be carried out effectively.Abstrak. Dijumpai masih ada orang Kristen yang mempertentangkan apologetika dengan pewartaan Injil dan peran antara akal dan iman di dalam kedua bidang tersebut. Tulisan ini dimaksudkan untuk mengkaji relasi apologetika dan pewartaan Injil, serta signifikansi peran akal budi dan iman di dalam tugas berapologia dan pewartaan Injil secara efektif. Kajian ini menggunakan metode studi literatur yang disajikan secara deskriptif-analitif. Melalui kajian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa apologetika dan pewartaan Injil merupakan mandat Tuhan yang sifatnya mutlak ditunaikan bagi setiap orang percaya kapan pun dan di mana pun berada. Sedangkan akal budi dan iman adalah dua hal yang berbeda tetapi tidak saling bertentangan, di mana keduanya memiliki tempat dan perannya masing-masing dalam praktik berapologetika dan pewartaan Injil. Tanpa akal budi dan iman, maka praktik apologetika dan pewartaan Injil tidak dapat terlaksana dengan efektif.

This study aims to describe thinking skills in Indonesian Language Learning Textbook class X Curriculum 2013. The thinking skills in this study are oriented towards revising Bloom's learning taxonomy which divides thinking skills into two domains, namely Lower Order Thinking Skills (LOTS) and Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). The data in this study are in the form of text learning objectives written in Indonesian textbooks. The data is sourced from two revised editions of Indonesian textbooks, namely the 2014 revision and the 2017 revision. The data analysis method used in this study is referential matching and mapping of educational objectives based on the revised Bloom's taxonomy. The integration of thinking skills in Indonesian textbooks is manifested in the cognitive and knowledge dimensions. The cognitive dimension is dominated by the level of creation (C6) accumulated from two revised books. The knowledge dimension is dominated by conceptual knowledge. Based on this dominance, it can be concluded that the primary outcome of learning Indonesian is text creation. The text created is constructed from the concepts of text knowledge obtained in the learning process.
Redefinisi Kosakata Terkait Perang Bahasa (Kajian Linguistik Forensik)
Authors: Kusno Ali
Published: October 2021

The purpose of this study is to formulate a redefinition of vocabulary related to language wars. This study uses descriptive qualitative research methods. The data analysis technique uses an interactive model consisting of three analysis components: data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions or verification. The activities of the three components are carried out in an interactive form with the data collection process. The rise of legal cases related to language is in line with the increasingly massive use of social media in society. These cases are part of the language war. Society, in general, is still common and even misunderstands related speech that is categorized as language war and has the potential to be caught in the law. Language war is the use of the language of a speaker/writer intentionally as a tool/weapon for self or group interests. Language wars are carried out directly or indirectly that attack the ideas, thoughts, behaviour, honour, or physical condition of a person or group of speech partners. Language wars include suggestions, criticism, ridicule, incitement, defamation, insults, and slander. More detailed definitions and socialization efforts to the public regarding various language criteria are preventive measures for various legal cases related to language.

Many studies address the quality of root canal treatments, but few refer to endodontics using rotatory techniques performed by novice operators. This study evaluated the performance of undergraduates in their first contact with rotary root canal instrumentation concerning the findings of the final periapical radiograph, and the post endodontic treatment pain. A longitudinal observational study was performed on periapical radiographs of 491 teeth from 450 patients submitted to root canal treatment by undergraduate students from 2015 to 2018. The analysis of the length of root canal filling followed the criteria: (i) acceptable, if periapical radiograph presents root filling ending 0 - 1 mm short of radiographic apex; (ii) over, if periapical radiograph presents root filling ending beyond the radiographic apex; and (iii) under, if periapical radiograph presents root filling ending > 1 mm short of radiographic apex. Evaluation of postendodontic treatment pain was categorized into either absence or presence of pain. Adequate length root canal filling was observed in 65.9% of the cases (324 teeth). Periapical lesions presence and dimensions did not interfere to the obturation quality. Statistical relation was found between the pulp condition and postendodontic treatment pain. The presence of pain was observed in 4.7% of the vital teeth and 0.3% of non-vital teeth. The presence of periapical lesion did not influence postoperative pain. Adequate length root canal filling was observed in most cases and NitTi rotary instrumentation had applicability in undergraduate programs, even with novice operators. Besides that, pulp condition had an effect on postendodontic pain.

Blended learning (BL) emerged abruptly when global pandemic affected the education system. Significant changes are brought by this model where it optimizes the instructional resources and upscale the quality of learning. This study focused in determining the level of readiness of the state university encompassing the domains of blended learning by stating its pedagogical condition and limitations. As a result, the researchers aim to identify strategic programs that can help the university implement BL effectively. The study combined both quantitative and qualitative research approach where the foremost used descriptive research to describe the characteristics of students and teachers, as well as their perspective towards BL. The latter discussed further the implications of implementing BL through an in-depth interview. The survey was administered to 110 students and 30 teachers, while the interview was conducted to 3 groups. Results indicated that students are in the Intermediate level in terms of ICT skills, while teachers are found to be in the Expert level. The high percentage of stakeholders having ICT skills and means brings a positive perspective towards BL. Moreover, the university’s initiatives to employ BL through academic and administrative capability-building activities and programs, recognition of different roles to be assumed by the key stakeholders and operational guidelines were the key indicators of the readiness of the university.

Abandoned arable land is a widespread phenomenon in land use. Methods based on the use of remote sensing data are most suitable for studying and monitoring farmlands overgrown with forest. Multispectral satellite images and vegetation indices can reflect the difference at certain stages of the successional development of fallow vegetation. The aim of the work is to evaluate the informative value of individual channels of medium-resolution images of Landsat satellites and the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) for identifying vegetation areas at various stages of reforestation succession on abandoned arable land in the zone of distribution of broad-leaved forests in the Urals. As the source material we used 30 georeferenced relevés of different overgrowth stages made in 2012, and 9 cloudless Landsat 5 TM and Landsat 7 ETM+ images for the period from April to October 2011. Using the data, NDVI and values of three spectral bands (Red, NIR, Thermal) were calculated for the relevé points. The most informative when dividing the stages of reforestation on abandoned fields in the zone of distribution of broad-leaved forests in the Urals were the NDVI vegetation index and the surface temperature estimated by the thermal channel. In addition, the red band can be useful for identifying the initial stage of succession.

Cyclodextrins (CD) by their chemical nature are typical "host molecules" that can encapsulate a wide range of molecules, one or two benzene rings, including a phenolic ring. CDs can affect the bioavailability of contaminants during biodegradation, as well as the toxicity of the contaminant to microorganisms due to their ability to form inclusion complexes with organic compounds. In this work, the phenol destructor strains Pseudomonas stutzeri IB-I6C and Paenibacillus macerans IB-I4 were used, which have different growth characteristics in relation to the tested substrates: phenol (200 µg/ml) and CD (2 mg/ml). It was shown that when cultivating strains on a nutrient medium containing phenol+cyclodextrin, the degradation potential of bacteria in relation to phenol significantly increases. The amount of residual phenol in the presence of CD for P. stutzeri IB-I6C culture decreased by 8% by the end of cultivation, and for P. macerans IB-I4 this value was 10%. In the presence of CD in the medium, the time to achieve the maximum possible destruction of phenol was almost halved for both destructor strains. The rate of phenol consumption by pseudomonas IB-I6C in the presence of CD increased by 1,36 times, and utilization by the P. macerans strain IB-I4 was 1,31 times faster. The positive effect of CD in the destruction of phenol was found even in the case when CD is poorly utilized by the microorganism, as is observed in the strain P. stutzeri IB-I6C.
