LEGISLACIÓN BÁSICA DE PROTECCIÓN DEL MEDIO AMBIENTE (PRIMER SEMESTRE 2024)
Authors: Expósito López Óscar
Published: December 2024

Durante el período objeto de análisis (del 1 de octubre de 2023 al 31 de marzo de 2024) han surgido diversas normas de rango legal y otras tantas del estrato reglamentario que son de interés para la presente crónica.
De interés prevalente se sitúa una norma a la que, por su configuración formal, el legislador ya nos tiene tristemente acostumbrados. Se trata de un Real Decreto-ley que tiene por objeto, entre normas de otra índole, entrar a tratar materias tan dispares como la transición energética, la sequía o la movilidad sostenible. Aunque los detalles críticos observables ya se tratan en extenso en el análisis de este cuerpo normativo en el punto siguiente a esta introducción, no se puede más que resaltar el aumento de este tipo de normas polivalentes que pretenden en un mismo cuerpo normativo tratar cuestiones muy dispares entre ellas y que afectan a la capacidad técnica de los juristas para conocer las novedades normativas y, para los ciudadanos, legos en derecho, un grave problema de inseguridad jurídica ante un modelo cambiante y opaco. Sirva esta crónica, por lo tanto, para facilitar la comprensión de este nuevo estilo normativo propio del hiperdesarrollo y la hipertrofia normativa, así como de un escaso nivel de calidad regulatoria. De hecho, y en vista de estos vaivenes aglomerantes en base a nomenclaturas insondables, esta tipología de documento informativo —la crónica— se ve más necesaria que nunca.
En lo que se refiere a normativa sectorial de carácter diverso, es interesante la materia de bienestar animal que sigue creando nueva normativa y regímenes más beneficiosos para los animales de distinta índole. Como se ha podido comprobar a raíz de las últimas crónicas, y desde que se diese inicio a este “idilio animalista” con la modificación de la legislación civil, la maquinaria legislativa no se ha pausado. La presente no es una excepción y cuenta a nivel nacional con nuevas normas de carácter reglamentario que inciden en lo que puede llamarse el reino jurídico del bienestar animal, en concreto en el ámbito de la producción animal. Por su parte, también se aprueban novedades en el marco del mercado de las emisiones, en concreto para el período 2026-2030.
Style: A Key New Dimension for Creativity Research and Development
Authors: Scott G Isaksen
Published: December 2024

Understanding, recognizing, nurturing, and developing creativity in individuals, teams, and organizations has become a major priority for research and practice. Cognitive psychology has played a major role in these efforts. The preponderance of research has focused on level, or degree of capability, and cognitive psychology has contributed to identifying intellectual abilities and characteristics associated with creativity. More recent efforts have identified style, or preferred modality, as another category of characteristics to be considered in understanding and developing creative talent. This additional dimension holds great promise for this important area of work. This article presents the essence of what this dimension means, and some of the key areas for its potential value for future research and practice.

Published: December 2024

Paper abstract: CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing technology has revolutionised the creation of precise and permanent modifications to DNA, enabling the generation of diverse animal models for investigating potential treatments. Here, we provide a protocol for the use of CRISPR-Cas9 to create murine models of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) along with a step-by-step guide for their phenotypic and molecular characterisation. The experimental procedures include CRISPR microinjection of embryos, molecular testing at the DNA, RNA, and protein levels, forelimb grip strength testing, immunostaining and serum creatine kinase (CK) testing. We further provide suggestions for analysis and interpretation of the generated data, as well as the limitations of our approach. These protocols are designed for researchers who intend on generating and using mouse models to study DMD as well as those seeking a detailed framework of phenotyping to contribute to the broader landscape of genetic disorder investigations. Protocol summary: The following protocol describes H&E staining of snap frozen cork-mounted mouse tissue samples. These include sections from the heart, tibialis anterior (TA), triceps and quadriceps.
ON DEFINING THE ESSENCE OF THE CONCEPT OF “SALES PROMOTION OF TOBACCO PRODUCTS”
Authors:   National Academy of Legal Sciences of Ukraine, Kharkiv, Ukraine, Seminoh Svitlana
Published: December 2024

The purpose of the article. Firstly, to define the essence of the concept of “promotion of tobacco products”, and secondly, to reveal the problem of whether the provision of hookah services to consumers in restaurant establishments is a promotion of sales based on a comprehensive analysis of international and national law and case law on the prevention and reduction of tobacco use, in particular, the prohibition of any advertising and promotion of tobacco products. Methods. The аrticle uses the general scientific methodology for conducting legal research, in particular, the methods of analysis and synthesis, comparative legаl, systemic and structural, and others. The empirical basis of the study is formed by the legal acts of national and international law governing the prevention and reduction of tobacco use and its harmful effects on public health, and by the case law. Results. Based on the analysis of the legal acts of Ukraine regulating the prevention and reduction of tobacco use and its harmful effects on public health, and the case law, the author has established that there is no regulatory definition of the concept of “tobacco sales promotion” at the nаtional legislative level. At the same time, at the doctrinal level, the fundamentals of economic theory operate with the concept of “sales promotion”, which is characterized as a general theoretical doctrine closely related to advertising. In this regard, the article: – clarifies the content of the concept of “tobаcco sales promotion” and the set of its essential features in comparison with the concept and essentiаl features of “marketing”, “sales” and “advertising”. The essence of the concept of “tobacco sales promotion” is formulated; – the author expresses a reasoned position as to whether the provision of hookаh service to consumers using hookah tobacco in restaurant establishments is a sales promotion. Conclusions. In order to balance the quality of the law in accordance with the principle of legitimate expectations, the provisions of Law No. 2899-VI need to be supplemented, in particular, by defining the concept of “promotion of tobacco products” in Article 1 and establishing an exhaustive specific list of “other measures of direct and indirect promotion of tobacco products” in paragrаph 11 of Article 16.

EFFECTIVE TEACHING OF PHRASEOLOGY IN THE COURSE OF UKRAINIAN AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE: PRACTICAL APPROACHES
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, Zlotnyk-Shahina Olha
Published: December 2024

The article examines the features of teaching phraseology in the course of Ukrainian as a foreign language, emphasizing the importance of developing students’ ability to understand and use phraseological units in various communicative situations. This is a crucial step in enhancing their linguistic competence, as phraseological expressions reflect the specific cultural and historical phenomena of a society, requiring a deeper understanding of not only the language itself but also the mental models of the community that uses it.

The paper provides a detailed analysis of methodological approaches to teaching phraseology aimed at facilitating the acquisition of complex language units. These approaches include contextual analysis, creative exercises, game-based methods, and interactive tasks that make the learning process more effective and engaging, fostering active student participation in language activities.

Special attention is given to the significance of cultural context in studying phraseology, enabling students not only to master linguistic units but also to gain a deeper understanding of the cultural, historical, and social aspects influencing the meanings of phraseological expressions. The article explores methods aimed at developing students’ critical thinking skills, such as analyzing and interpreting phraseological expressions in context. Suggested activities include creating dialogues, writing essays with active use of phraseological units, and working with authentic texts, which allow students to observe the practical application of phraseology in various speech situations.

The study highlights the importance of cultural context in mastering phraseology, as it helps students understand not only the linguistic forms but also the cultural and historical dimensions of their meanings. At the same time, it emphasizes methods that foster critical thinking, enabling students to analyze and interpret phraseological expressions contextually. To achieve this, tasks such as creating dialogues, composing essays that incorporate phraseological expressions, and analyzing authentic texts are recommended, helping students see how phraseology is applied in real-life communication.

Based on the conducted analysis, the article concludes that a comprehensive approach to teaching phraseology—encompassing cognitive, cultural, and interactive methods-not only effectively develops phraseological competence in students learning Ukrainian as a foreign language but also enhances their ability to acquire phraseological expressions, while promoting critical thinking skills and intercultural communication.

African colony as ‘laboratory of medicine’ - focusing on the German East Africa Expeditions by Robert Koch (1897-1907)
Authors:   The Korean Society For German History, Kim Phil-Young
Published: December 2024

This is a case study of African colonies as ‘medical laboratories’, by German bacteriologist and Nobel laureate Robert Koch (1843-1910) who carried out three field investigations of infectious diseases in German East Africa (1897-1907), to observe how the German tropical medicine influenced the care of the natives and their responses to German colonial health policies and the changes of the latter.
In the first field investigation in 1897/98, bubonic plague was the main research subject, and ‘violence’ was used in the process of obtaining blood and tissue samples from patients. This is not surprising considering that the stance of colonial rule at the time was coercive. The close relationship between colonial rule and medical research is once again confirmed when we see that the political situation of the field research area is determined by whether or not to cooperate with medical research.
The subject of the second field study in 1905/06 was malaria, and Koch’s prescription of quinine as a preventive and treatment for malaria to natives was criticized for causing the loss of their immunity who were already immune to malaria.
The subject of the third field study in 1906/07 was sleeping sickness, and Koch quarantined sleeping sickness patients at Bugala Camp and prescribed atoxyl treatment. However, the African natives, who learned that the effect of atoxyl is short-lived and causes side effects such as visual impairment when prescribed for a long time, responded flexibly to it and freely decided whether to stay in the camp. This has become a big problem for medical research, which requires long-term investigation of patients’ symptoms, and the camp has also mobilized incentive policies such as easing isolation and providing material incentives to patients. At Kigarama Camp, which was created in German East Africa to imitate the Bugala camp, the operator of Kigarama camp also used various methods to attract patients, and as a result, this camp was not only a ‘medical laboratory’ led by German doctors, it became a ‘hybrid space’ where the German colonial powers, local rulers, and the surrounding residents mutually influenced.
It is true that African colonies were used as ‘medical laboratories’. It is also true that European studies such as biomedicine have had a great impact on Africa in terms of the laboratory operation process and results. However, although asymmetrical, Africa also did not remain just a ‘laboratory’, exchanging mutual influences with Europeans and European studies. Europeans and European studies also changed and adjusted according to Africans’ responses, so it can be said that African colonies became a ‘hybrid space’.
Migration and Refugees as Challenges of German political Education - Patriotism and New Identity Politics
Authors:   The Korean Society For German History, Lee Yong-Il
Published: December 2024

This article attempts to examine the identity politics of German political education. Unlike other Western countries, which laid the foundation for democracy through revolution, Germany has not been able to create a critical and mature citizen that is distinct from the bourgeoisie. It was only after 1945, when Nazism as an extreme nationalism ended, that civic education at the national level was finally implemented in German society. It was an attempt to erase class from the concept of German citizenship. The idea was that citizenship could be revived only when class was destroyed. In addition, German political education aimed at identity education that found the source of system legitimacy and pride in the functioning rule of law and democratic institutions and values instead of a nation that has always been controversial in German history. Despite these efforts, the identity politics of German political education did not regard migrants and refugees as equal citizens. Citizenship education based on the new identity politics is strongly requested in a German society where a quarter of the population is filled with peoples with migrant backgrounds. The Frankfurt Declaration for critical-emancipatory Political Education, which deals with the problem of unequal and exclusionary power structures that prevent migrants from participating in politics, is the beginning.

Published: December 2024

Digitization of records has become a global trend. For historians, this trend brings many advantages over the past, but also a quantitative expansion of information that a historian cannot cope with. Especially with regard to historical archives, digitization must invest more time and effort in food than it provides for comfort. This study presents a digital methodology that enables historical materials to be found and identified efficiently when information floods are caused by digitization, and focuses largely on methodological and historical topics. In the methodological field the processing of historical materials is described by Python, in the thematic field the ethnic understanding of the Nazis is recorded in the German before 1938-1938. First, a combination of certain words was created with the help of Pi-lines and the production time and the producers of the material that has drastically changed the locations and the combined combination This confirmed that the combination of words was possible in a certain period of time. to investigate departments and persons connected with the beginning of a document. The search revealed that the person who interpreted Japan as an Aryan race or an equivalent people, Walter Gross, was active in the German socialist racist state policy (RSDAP). The interpretation of Japan as an Aryan race cannot be confirmed until the end of 1937. It is also believed that Walther Gross's activities for the ethnic reinterpretation of Japan reflect the world order envisaged by Hitler, since it was a foreign and not a racist office. The cultural agreement between Japan and Germany of 1938 was therefore a step, To recognize ethnic and cultural similarities in the process of strategic expansion of the anti-communist agreement between the two countries of 1936 The ethnic interpretation of the Nazi government in Japan was part of the world order proposed by Hitler. Hitler considered the future world order just before World War II as an ethnic order and stressed that after the end of the war the world would again be transformed into a new, superior, culturally superior, superior race. Hitler reinterpreted the world order, especially by linking ethnic order with culture.
Influencia del soft law internacional en el reconocimiento de los derechos fundamentales a las víctimas de violaciones de los derechos humanos
Authors: Camacho Vinueza Daniela
Published: December 2024

The production of international treaties on human rights signed by different States or generated within the framework of International Organizations such as the UN or the OAS have taken a lot of strength for the protection of such essential rights, to the point of being considered as norms of ius cogens international.However, International Organizations have the power granted by the constitutive treaties themselves to issue certain types of international instruments within the so-called secondary law, which do not have binding force for the States Parties, such as the reports of special rapporteurships, resolutions , minutes, among others, within which it is intended to publicize current situations that should be of special attention to the international community and that on many occasions involve the protection of human rights, in such a way that it is subsequently protocolized through a norm of hard law as an international treaty.These instruments, known as norms of international soft law, have been taken into account by national and international judges as a basis for establishing the obligations of the States with respect to the guarantee of human rights, which at first sight would imply the application of the international doctrine as indicated by article 38 of the Statute of the International Court of Justice; however, it is interesting to observe the way in which judicial operators have indicated that this type of instrument must be compulsorily applied by the States due to the relevance of its content, thus giving them a kind of binding nature.

Published: December 2024

El objetivo del estudio es analizar las variables asociadas a los delitos informáticos en Latinoamérica. El estudio es de tipo cuantitativo con un diseño transeccional. Al respecto, se trabaja con la base de datos del Observatorio de Delitos Informáticos de Latinoamérica (ODILA) del periodo 2015-2017, con una muestra conformada por 5310 personas. Los resultados revelan que de la relación de la denuncia por país y el sexo, el sexo masculino tiene su presencia total en Argentina. Mientras que la distribución del sexo femenino tiene mayor presencia en México (22,38%), Colombia (20,23%) y Guatemala (8,54%). También se evidencia que de relación del nivel de instrucción y si ha denunciado, un alto porcentaje de los que no han denunciado tienen nivel universitario (81,35%). En cuanto a la relación entre el incidente y el tipo de víctima, se encuentra que las personas físicas son las que más denuncian los delitos informáticos, sobre todo, en delitos como calumnias e injurias (17,30%), amenazas (15,97%) y hacking (15,12%). Además, de la relación entre las causas por las cuales no denunció y la edad, se deriva que las personas con edad entre 22 y 35 son las que más participación tienen del grupo de estudio. Se concluye que losdelitos informáticos atentan contra la privacidad de las personas y organizaciones. Los ciberdelincuentes han encontrado un espacio para el enriquecimiento ilícito, el robo de información y desestabilización de la integridad de los afectados. Las organizaciones están recurriendo a la auditoría a fin de lograr obtener pruebas ante procesos judiciales, puesto que la auditoría permite la detección de los delitos informáticos y la creación de dispositivos que protejan a las organizaciones de injerencias de extraños que atenten contra el capital y la reputación.

Published: December 2024

A través de la sentencia T- 622 de 2016 y bajo el amparo de la “Constitución Ecológica”, la Corte Constitucional otorgó el estatus de sujeto al río Atrato e inició el debate para trascender hacia una visión ecocéntrica del Derecho colombiano, en donde la naturaleza desplaza a la humanidad como principal ente de protección jurídica. El presente texto analiza la argumentación que subyace en la sentencia y las decisiones judiciales posteriores alrededor del reconocimiento de siete afluentes hídricos como sujetos de derechos. A través de una hermenéutica sistemática, acompañada del análisis estático y dinámico del precedente jurisprudencial, se revisaron nueve decisiones en función de los siguientes ejes: (i) contexto jurídico internacional acerca del derecho al medio ambiente y su repercusión en la declaratoria de la naturaleza como sujeto de derechos; (ii) reglas de decisión establecidas en la sentencia fundadora de la línea, T-622 de 2016; (iii) análisis de las órdenes impartidas en lo que respecta a medidas de protección, conservación y restauración de los cuerpos de agua, que permitieron confirmar su estatus como sujeto o, en su defecto, reforzaron la visión antropocéntrica y colonial respecto de lo no humano en Colombia.

Published: December 2024

The continuing development of neurotechnology presents meaningful challenges to theprotection of human rights, especially in terms of privacy and mental integrity. In responseto these challenges, the proposal to embrace neurorights has emerged, that is to say, toadapt or expand traditional human rights to better protect individuals in the face of newtechnological capabilities. Therefore, this article examines the feasibility of recognizingneuro-rights as a new legal category.In this context, the evolution of the concept of neuro-rights is reviewed, along with itsintroduction by writers such as Marcello Ienca and Rafael Yuste. Next, the variousproposals for neuro-rights are analyzed, highlighting their similarities and differences. Finally, after applying the analytical-synthetic and historical-logical methods,complemented with the use of the specialized Atlas.ti software based on literature reviewand text analysis, it is concluded that it is not necessary to create neuro-rights as a newcategory, as this could even weaken the special protection of already established rights.Instead, it is proposed that existing human rights should be dynamic and flexible to adapt toneurotechnological advances, ensuring effective and consistent protection in all areas.

From which it is sought to make a comparison between the legal and psychological determinations attributed to children under 10 and 13 years of age who have committed criminal behavior, with respect to which a study is made of the non-imputability granted by Colombian law and the various factors and psychological theories that classify the psychological capacity of said juvenile delinquents. It concludes by mentioning that, although it is important that minors under 14 years of age are not liable for criminal liability due to their age lacking sufficient volitional and cognitive capacity, it is also important to pay attention to the factors that trigger deviant behavior, starting from the psychological nominations that science and the authors develop.
Informalidad laboral y migración venezolana en el caribe colombiano. Percepciones de los vendedores de Cartagena de Indias y Santa Marta
Authors: Maza-Ávila Francisco-Javier , Román-Romero Raúl , Pérez-González María
Published: December 2024

This article analyzes the political conjuncture produced because of the Venezuelan migratory movement towards Colombia and other countries in the region and how the socioeconomic effects of their insertion into the informal economy are perceived by local non-formalized Colombian workers from the cities of Cartagena and Santa Marta, in the Colombian Caribbean. Methodologically, the article is descriptive. An analysis was conducted by reviewing documents and statistics sourced from the official archives which portray the dynamic landscape of Venezuelan migration. Furthermore, questionnaires were applied to a representative sample of informal merchants —stationary, semi-stationary, and itinerant— using the survey technique, to inquire about their socioeconomic characteristics, the knowledge they have about the arrival of new merchants due to the economic crisis in Venezuela, and their perceptions of the impact that occurred in the development of their commercial activities. Likewise, the actions and strategies that these subjects have taken to mitigate the effects of the insertion of migrants are determined.
Upper airway imaging techniques for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome
Authors: Pendharkar Seema Shantilal , Jain Sakshi , Bhagwat Harshad
Published: December 2024

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a sleep disorder marked by recurrent stops in breathing during sleep or by not breathing for 10 seconds or longer despite an effort to breathe. It is brought on by a partial or total blockage of the upper airway, which results in apnea or hypopnea. Soft tissue in the back of the throat collapses and blocks the upper airway when muscles relax while you sleep. The Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) is a widely used metric to quantify sleep apnea. The total number of apneas and hypopneas that happen during an hour of sleep is represented by this average. The majority of people with OSA remain undiagnosed, even with the recent advancements in sleep medicine diagnostic technologies and public awareness of the condition. The upper airway imaging methods for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome will be covered in this review.
An assessment of burden of active hepatitis C virus infection in HCV seropositive individuals in Gujarat- A retrospective study
Authors: Maheta Hemanshi , Sood Nidhi , Mandalia Asha , Rao Palak , Baldaniya Neha
Published: December 2024

: Viral hepatitis is a major public health challenge that requires an urgent response as the disease is a 2nd leading infectious cause of death globally causing 1.3 million deaths per year. Hepatitis B and C, the two main types of the five hepatitis infections are responsible for 96% of viral hepatitis related mortality. HCV is commonly associated with chronicity, cirrhosis and hepato-cellular carcinoma. Screening for HCV is done with antibody detection. Sero-positivity is not an evidence of an active HCV infection, for which viral RNA detection is necessary. As appropriate standard testing by RTPCR for active infection is not done, patients do not receive proper treatment and data pertaining to true burden of disease in community remains hidden.

To determine prevalence of active hepatitis C virus infection in HCV antibody positive individuals.

: Retrospective study was conducted at Microbiology Department, GMERS Medical College and hospital, Ahmedabad, from January 2020 to March 2024. A total of 763 sero-positive samples were received and tested for active HCV infection from 18 districts of Gujarat with RTPCR assay to ascertain active infection.

Of 763 samples tested, 47.31% samples were positive and 48.23% samples were negative for HCV RNA. In active infection cases, 63.99% were male and 38.78% were female. Most common age group affected was 40-60 yrs. Highest prevalence was seen in South Gujarat. Regional variations in active disease burden was demonstrated.

: Sero- positivity of HCV does not inform about active infection of HCV. Active infection is very high in sero-positive individuals. To reduce chronicity and associated mortality and morbidity of HCV infection, RNA detection, a gold standard diagnostic tool should be adopted for ascertaining the active infection status. With the availability of very effective directly acting antivirals for HCV, morbidity and mortality associated with HCV can be reduced.

Authors: Hanzen Debora Cristina Santana , Flores Lucinar Jupir Forner
Published: December 2024

Introdução: Durante o desenvolvimento a criança vivencia experiências sensório-motoras que contribuem para a aquisição das habilidades motoras e cognitivas, proporcionadas pelo contexto que estão inseridas. Logo, entende-se que as instituições direcionadas à educação infantil devem apresentar um ambiente de aprendizagem planejado e estimulante. Objetivo: Avaliar as oportunidades de estimulação motora ofertadas às crianças inseridas nos berçários dos Centros Municipais de Educação Infantil (CMEI) de uma cidade de fronteira. Método: Estudo de cunho descritivo de abordagem quanti-qualitativa. 22 CMEIs do município de Foz do Iguaçu/PR tiveram suas turmas de berçário avaliadas através do instrumento AHEMD-IS Contexto Creche, o qual seu resultado classifica a instituição como fraca, suficiente ou boa para as oportunidades de estimulação motora. Resultados: 13 Centros foram classificados como “suficiente”, 6 foram classificados como “fraco” e 3 classificadas como “bom”. Quanto a localização em que o CMEI está inserido, podemos observar que os Centros de maior e menor classificação encontram-se dispersos por todas as áreas da cidade. Conclusão: A grande maioria se classificou como “suficiente”, o que nos leva a perceber que há a necessidade de ajustes e melhorias para proporcionar estímulos motores e sensoriais de qualidade às crianças que estão inseridas nas instituições de cuidado e ensino.

Authors: Goulart Daniel Franco , Campos Juliana Bonomi Santos de
Published: December 2024

Este caso de ensino teve por objetivo discutir a importância das técnicas de gestão de estoques na definição da estratégia de compras em operações industriais, tendo como pano de fundo o metanol, um insumo vital para a produção de biodiesel. A partir da perspectiva de Ricardo Mendes, diretor de compras de uma empresa desse segmento, o texto propõe uma discussão sobre as nuances envolvidas na definição da estratégia de compras baseada em contratos de longo prazo firmados com fornecedores de confiança e na gestão de suprimentos baseada em mercados spot. O caso de ensino convida os alunos a discutirem e praticarem os conceitos abarcados pelas técnicas de estoque cíclico e estoque de segurança para embasar as decisões ligadas à estratégia de compras. Trata-se de uma narrativa baseada em fatos vivenciados pelos autores que tem por objetivo auxiliar os alunos na compreensão sobre as diferenças fundamentais entre fornecedores de longo prazo e relacionamentos spot, um dilema central na gestão de compras, e fornecer insumos para que eles possam calcular os custos associados com a gestão de estoques decorrentes de cada estratégia de compra. Este caso é recomendado para cursos de Gestão da Cadeia de Suprimentos, com módulos de Gestão de Estoques e Gestão de Compras, principalmente em turmas de MBA, especialização ou mestrado profissional.

Published: December 2024

Objetivo: Este artigo busca entender como os gestores das multinacionais têm utilizado o tripé da estratégia para gerar novas estratégias a fim de enfrentar a desglobalização e seus efeitos no mercado mundial. Método: Para atingir esse objetivo, realizou-se um estudo de caso, com entrevistas semiestruturadas, em uma multinacional brasileira do setor químico, cujas peculiaridades fazem com que se manter internacionalizada seja essencial para sua estratégia de gestão. Principais Resultados: Os resultados mostraram que os pilares da visão baseada na indústria e da visão baseada em recursos, dois dos pilares do tripé da estratégia, têm influência mais forte na formação do planejamento estratégico da empresa do que a visão baseada em instituições, terceiro pilar. Relevância / Originalidade: Na conjuntura atual, a desglobalização tem sido caracterizada pelo aumento do nacionalismo, tendências protecionistas e diminuição da interdependência dos países. Contribuições Teóricas / Metodológicas: Traz nova abordagem para o tripé da estratégia (uma perspectiva teórica da área de negócios internacionais) não utilizada anteriormente no fenômeno da desglobalização. Contribuições Sociais / para a Gestão: Auxilia a compreender a atuação dos gestores nos momentos de crise.

Published: December 2024

La gobernanza ambiental es un campo crucial en la gestión de recursos naturales y la protección del medio ambiente. En este contexto, se llevó a cabo una investigación que abordó la gobernanza ambiental con un enfoque específico en San Pedro Garza García, para atender cómo se desarrollan las políticas de medio ambiente y el impacto de la gobernanza en su evolución y ejecución. Este un municipio de Nuevo León, México, es conocido principalmente por su economía, pero recientemente se ha enfocado en iniciativas ambientales. La metodología de la investigación fue el análisis de textos para comprender y evaluar políticas públicas, documentos legales, informes y otros recursos escritos. El marco teórico está basado en la propuesta de Aguilar-Villanueva (2022) para el estudio de la gobernanza pública que ofrece elementos pertinentes para el caso. Los principales hallazgos fueron que el gobierno del municipio de San Pedro ha desarrollado importantes avances en materia legislativa, pero aún queda una gran brecha en lo que se refiere a desarrollo y difusión de información, y seguimiento de los programas de medio ambiente.

Background: Cadmium is a common environmental toxin and its notable nephrotoxicity has been proven. In the kidneys. If picked up by such sources as unclean sewage or long-term pollution, this can become chronic exposure to cadmium. Through the use of contaminated food or water supplies and also industrial pollution with metals and aerosols that enter our rivers and lakes, it finds its way in there to an even greater extent still It accumulates mainly in the kidneys. As a medicinal plant rich in bioactive compounds, Ziziphus spina-christi was investigated for its possible protective effects against cadmium-induced kidney damage in rats. Methods: The adult male and female Wistar albino rats were randomly divided in four groups: control group, Ziziphus spina-christi treatment (ZSC), ZSC treatment plus cadmium; the blood samples for serum analysis at end of treatment and kidney tissuesfor histological examination were from harvested at the end of the treatment period, blood samples were collected for serum analysis. Kidney tissue was obtained for histological examination. The range of biochemical parameters-creatine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN)and uric acid levels-were measured using diagnostic kits. Result: Cadmium exposure actually decreased the rats’ kidney weight and increased the levels of creatinine, uric acid and BUN in the male and female animals, indicating renal toxicity. This cadmium-fact pathology was apparently renal in nature and included glomerular and tubular necrosis as well vascular congestion. While treating rats with ZSC alone had no negative effect on their kidney function and did not cause any reduction in normalizes its weight or biochemical parameters, it did so when you administered cadmium rats them concurrently with. Those animals that had been treated with both cadmium and ZSC however showed a partial recovery in kidney weight, while the levels of serum creatinine, BUN and uric acid all fell significantly compared to those animals receiving only cadmium. Histologically speaking, the kidney damage exhibited by rats in the combination treatment category was less severe: their renal architecture more intact than in animals exposed solely to cadmium.
