Authors: Wagner Julianne , Etges Camila Lucia , Barbosa Lisiane De Rosa
Published: December 2020

Objetivo: Este estudo teve como objetivo relatar o acompanhamento fonoaudiológico nas dificuldades alimentares no câncer infanto-juvenil. Métodos: O estudo de série de casos retrospectivo e descritivo-qualitativo teve amostra composta por 3 indivíduos com idade variando entre 8 e 14 anos, em acompanhamento com a equipe do Serviço de Oncologia Pediátrica do Hospital da Criança Santo Antônio – Irmandade Santa Casa de Misericórdia de Porto Alegre, com solicitação de avaliação fonoaudiológica para investigação de deglutição/alimentação. A coleta foi realizada por meio de dados extraídos de prontuário eletrônico da instituição, onde constavam as evoluções dos casos dos pacientes internados e atendidos em ambulatório, de março de 2018 a agosto de 2019. Resultados: Nos 3 casos relatados, os pacientes apresentaram deglutição normal, com indicação de via alternativa para alimentação pelo prejuízo na ingestão oral de alimentos durante e/ou após o tratamento oncológico. As queixas alimentares devido aos efeitos colaterais do tratamento foram inapetência, alteração de paladar, náusea e vômitos. Os casos foram acompanhados durante a internação e em ambulatório de fonoaudiologia. Dois dos pacientes permaneceram com a via alternativa por tempo prolongado e um deles reestabeleceu a alimentação por via oral exclusiva. Conclusão: O fonoaudiólogo inserido na equipe multidisciplinar de cuidados ao paciente com câncer infanto-juvenil é um dos responsáveis pelo acompanhamento das dificuldades alimentares provocadas pela doença e tratamentos, com olhar além da disfagia orofaríngea. A sua atuação deve envolver estratégias que promovam a nutrição adequada, seja por via alternativa ou via oral, visando segurança e conforto, com respeito à autonomia do paciente.

Published: December 2020

This research was a modification of research by Catalbas (2016) and Pratikto (2012). The model that can separate long-term and short-term components are the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM). This study aimed to model export, import, inflation, interest rates, and the rupiah exchange rate using VECM and to test the causality between variables using the Granger Causality test. The inter-variable model obtained in this study was VECM with lag 2 using a deterministic trend with the assumption of none intercept no trend and two cointegrations. In export and import, there was an adjustment mechanism from the short-term to the long-term. This research model was appropriate to forecast the export and import where VECM with export and import as the target variables, the cointegration equation (long-run model) for  cointegration equation (long-run model) for Based on the Granger Causality test, it was found that there was a one-way relationship between exchange rates and inflation, export and interest rates, export and import, inflation and export, and import and the interest rate at the significance level of 5%.
Intercultural Communication in the Life and Mission of Arnold Janssen
Authors:   University of St. Tomas (UST), Manila, Philippines, Nema Kasmir
Published: December 2020

This study investigates the intercultural communication dimension of the life and mission of Arnold Janssen, the founder of the Divine Word Missionaries (SVD). This qualitative study involves a textual analysis of the relevant data and verbal descriptions of Janssen’s life and mission. The results of the study show that the seed of Janssen’s intercultural communication was primarily rooted in his parents. Being born in a family that was enveloped by a culture of prayer and a culture of peace, Janssen cultivated an intercultural sensitivity. This seed sprouted in his personality and spirituality. It revealed that Janssen was an intercultural-and-receptive person, interested in ethnic groups, cultures, beliefs, and nationalities which were different from his own. Such interests were founded by a venturesome spirit that allowed him to welcome the unfamiliarity of the other and to value such differences. The researcher finds that Janssen’s intercultural communication was contained in his practice of mission as dialogue. Through the lenses of the mission, Janssen’s dialogue competence enabled him to bridge differing views about the mission and encourage missionaries to do the same.
Contemporary Debates: The Hundertwasser Art Centre with Wairau Maori Art Gallery
Authors: Pierce Imogen Van
Published: December 2020

What began as a humble sketch on the back of an envelope, the Hundertwasser Art Centre with Wairau Māori Art Gallery project has evolved into a unique and ambitious quest for artistic representation in Northland. The history of this controversial public art project, yet to be built, has seen a number of debates take place, locally and nationally, around the importance of art in urban and rural societies and the broader socio-economic context surrounding the development of civic architecture in New Zealand. This project has not only challenged the people of Northland to think about the role of art in their community, but it has prompted New Zealanders to question whether there is an appropriate level of investment in the arts in New Zealand.
Poor cousin who came to stay: The well-established Mirror and the depression-era launch of the New Zealand Woman’s Weekly
Authors: Ellis Gavin
Published: December 2020

This article places the New Zealand Woman’s Weekly magazine within the processes of change that were occurring in the years following the First World War when perceptions of the roles of women were changing and domestic consumerism was evolving. It contrasts the first issue of the magazine, launched on 8 December 1932, with that month’s edition of New Zealand’s largest selling home journal, the Mirror, to illustrate how its founders had identified a gap in the depression-era market in spite of their meagre resources.
Depression, Anxiety and Self-esteem among Infertile Women: A Systematic Review of Literature
Authors: Negoiță Vanesa , Băban Adriana
Published: December 2020

"This paper aims to analyze the current literature on the impact of infertility on women’s psychological health through systematic methods. A systematic review of the literature for the research of the psychological effects on infertile women was performed. Depression, anxiety and self-esteem were analyzed in the context of women with reproductive problems. Our results indicate that infertile women had higher levels of anxiety and depression, but also a lower self-esteem, compared to women without fertility problems. Almost half of the infertile women, presented in the literature included in this study, reported the presence of psychological problems. The risk factors identified as having important influences on the experience of infertility were age, level of education, employment, duration of infertility, type of infertility, known or unknown cause of infertility, intentionality, perceived social support and treatment for infertility. Of course, these experiences differ from woman to woman, but most of the times, the lifestyle and physical and mental health of infertile women are negatively affected.

Keywords: systematic review, female infertility, depression, anxiety, self-esteem

El hibridismo del modelo comunicativo de las Islas Canarias
Authors: Yanes Mesa Julio Antonio
Published: December 2020

En el presente artículo nos hemos propuesto demostrar que la tradicional discordancia de la política y el periodismo de las Islas Canarias en el actual territorio de España, a veces explicada como evidencia o indicio de algún tipo de déficit en la sociedad insular, guarda coherencia con los condicionantes geográficos e históricos del archipiélago. A tal fin, hemos planteado que el modelo isleño, en lugar de responder al de los países europeos del sur del Mediterráneo como sucede en la península, conjuga los rasgos propiamente estatales de éste con otros ideológicos del llamado modelo angloamericano. Tal hipótesis la hemos verificado en las dos islas centrales del archipiélago, Gran Canaria y Tenerife, en sendos estudios previos elaborados desde parámetros metodológicos diferentes, toda vez que, en el primer caso, hemos recurrido a la microhistoria para estudiar el problema en el puñado de años del sexenio democrático (1868-1874); y, en el segundo, a una investigación longitudinal a largo plazo, desde los orígenes más remotos del sector hasta el estallido de la guerra civil (1758-1936). A nuestro entender, la redundancia de los resultados con dos propuestas metodológicas tan diferentes, al conllevar la superación de los reparos que puedan achacársele a cada una de ellas por separado, confiere el rigor deseable a las conclusiones.
Los pensionados de la JAE en Castilla y León durante la dictadura de Primo de Rivera (1923-1930). La élite pedagógica en busca del conocimiento

Published: December 2020

: La Junta para la Ampliación de Estudios e Investigaciones Científicas fue un organismo caracterizado por su impulso en el desarrollo de la formación de profesionales de múltiples disciplinas académicas y profesionales, donde hay que destacar su labor en el ámbito educativo con respecto al propio profesorado. En este estudio nos planteamos el análisis de los pensionados en este campo, en la región de Castilla y León, y las ayudas que les fueron concedidas durante la dictadura de Primo de Rivera (1923-1930). En él, se descubre cómo los pensionados siguieron tres líneas de trabajo principales: la organización educativa y los métodos de enseñanza; el estado y funcionamiento de la inspección educativa; y las escuelas normales y las disciplinas específicas. El disfrute de sus pensiones fue clave para la consolidación de sus trayectorias profesionales durante el periodo franquista, para aquellos que se negaron a difundir la renovación; o para sufrir la represión y el olvido en los casos de aquellos profesionales que constituyeron la vanguardia educativa durante el periodo republicano.

Keys to Human Development: The Baltic Miracle
Authors: Clemens Jr. Walter C.
Published: December 2020

The three Baltic republics—Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania—are the only units of the former Soviet Union to deal effectively with the complex challenges of transitioning to free market democracy with advancing levels of human development. These countries have developed high levels of societal fitness—defined in complexity science as the ability to cope with multifaceted challenges and opportunities. What are the sources of these achievements? Many factors intertwined to produce what some call the “Baltic miracle.” One key element has been the three revolutions stemming from the Protestant mandate to read and discuss the Bible: mass literacy, free thought and repression, and respect for individual dignity. Protestant influences were strongest in what is now Estonia and Latvia, but they reached Lithuania as well. Religiosity in now low in the Baltic republics, as in the Sweden that once nurtured both Christianity and literacy in its Baltic provinces. But the sparks it ignited in centuries past have shaped the rationalist and humanistic ethos of the region. Religion, of course, is just one of the European influences that conditioned economic and other cultural development in the region. But the dates when the Bible reached all of Europe in the vernacular are strong predictors of human development today. Balts also gained from not being occupied by the Golden Horde. On the other hand, they had to overcome several centuries of Russian and then Soviet domination. Fifty years of Communist rule dimmed but did not extinguish the positive qualities that reemerged with great vitality in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. The Baltic transformations were not "managed" from above or from outside—not from Brussels, not from Washington. They were encouraged and supported by Sweden and other European powers, but each transformation emerged from the bottom-up rather than from the top-down or from outside-in. Balts acted synergistically to contribute to the self-organization that is crucial to meeting complex challenges.
Factors Influencing Optimism for Degree Attainment in Latino First-Generation College Students
Authors: Romo Laura F. , Magana Diana , Gutierrez-Serrano Gabriela
Published: December 2020

Latino first-generation college students face a unique set of challenges that are not part of the college experience of their non-first-generation counterparts. Nonetheless, many Latinos remain optimistic about overcoming barriers that might impede their educational pursuits. The present study was aimed at exploring factors that contribute to Latino students’ positive expectations for degree attainment. Utilizing data from a large online survey administered at a four-year Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI), we found that competency beliefs and persistent determination to overcome challenges significantly influences students’ optimism. In addition, strong connections with institutional agents (largely, faculty and student affairs staff) emerged as significant contributing factors. Students who reported having close relationships with their parents also reported a greater degree of optimism about postsecondary success. Implications for programs and services to improve the college experiences of Latino first-generation student, enhance optimism, and increase retention are discussed.
Problematizing the Adoption and Implementation of Athlete Development ‘Models’: A Foucauldian-Inspired Analysis of the Long-Term Athlete Development Framework
Authors: Dowling Mathew , Mills Joseph , Stodter Anna
Published: December 2020

The purpose of this paper is to problematize the continued adoption and implementation of Long-Term Athlete Development (LTAD) framework (Balyi et al., 2005; 2014) as an increasingly orthodox conception of the athlete development process and for underpinning and designing sport coaching practice. In adopting a post-structuralist, Foucauldian perspective and drawing upon empirical interview data with Balyi and colleagues, senior government officials and sport administrators, our analysis examines some of the potential limitations for adopting and implementing LTAD as a conception of the athlete development process. In particular, we highlight the potential issues and contradictions linked to adopting such conceptions, namely their (mis)use as mechanisms of social control (i.e. governmentality), delimiting the ability of athletes and sport practitioners to think otherwise (i.e. disciplining and docility), and the potential to marginalize alternative ways of thinking. We conclude with a discussion of the implications for managerial and coaching practice.

Policy Transformations about ICT Applying in Learning and Teaching in Vietnamese General Educational System
Authors: Thi Thanh Hai Pham , Nguyen Nguyen Duc
Published: December 2020

Informatiom Communication Technology (ICT) has an important place in the educational innovation program. New policies on educational innovation are built on the premises and prospects of effective ICT application in teaching and learning (Richards, 2004). Studies on ICT application in teaching and Electronic Book or Digital Hydbrid Text in Education and Training have been researched and developed by serveral countries in the US and Europe. This article analyzes some policies for ICT application in teaching and educational innovation in Vietnam. These policies are analyzed according to the approaches to the Government of Vietnam Orientation on the application of information technology in education; The Ministry of Education and Training's policies on the Vietnamese education renovation requirements, ICT equipment infrastructure, the capacity of teachers to apply ICT in teaching. The research results show that the government has tried to give directions for ICT to be widely applied from management to teaching activities. The Ministry of Education and Training has also issued circulars and specific instructions to promptly implement orientations from the government. However, the approach to applying ICT in education has many multidimensional and too broad theoretical bases. The instructions on ICT are too sketchy and not yet specific for the application of ICT in teaching and learning.

Bilateral occipital metastases: Visual deficits and management considerations
Authors: Zaki Mark M. , Gupta Saksham , Hauser Blake , Wu Kyle C. , Mallery Robert M. , Prasad Sashank , Aizer Ayal , Bi Wenya Linda , Dunn Ian F.
Published: December 2020

Background:

Metastases to the bilateral occipital lobes pose a difficult clinical scenario due to risk of debilitating visual loss. We sought to characterize clinical outcomes following different treatment modalities to help guide management in this challenging situation.

Methods:

We retrospectively reviewed brain metastases patients treated at a single institution between 2008 and 2017 and assessed visual symptoms before and after treatment, the tumor and peritumoral edema volumes before treatment, and clinical outcomes including mortality.

Results:

Eighteen patients with metastases affecting both occipital lobes were identified. Lung cancer represented the most common primary (n = 10). Visual deficits were present in 12 patients at the time of diagnosis of bilateral occipital metastases (67%). Patients received radiotherapy (n = 5) or combined surgical resection and radiotherapy (n = 13). Among symptomatic patients, two received radiation and 10 received combined surgery and radiation. Nine patients had improved visual symptoms after treatment with no new visual deficits reported as a result of treatment. Among asymptomatic patients, three were treated with radiation alone and three with resection and radiation. Three of these patients developed new visual symptoms following treatment, including one patient with Balint’s syndrome.

Conclusion:

Patients with symptomatic bilateral occipital lobe metastases may experience visual improvement following intervention, especially if symptoms stem from compression or edema. Those without visual symptoms are at risk of developing new visual deficits during treatment, which should be included in the decision-making process and when counseling patients. Visual deficits improved after surgery in the majority of patients, with no cases of immediate visual deterioration.
Navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation following awake craniotomy for resection of glioma: Description of two cases
Authors: O’Neal Christen M. , Stephens Tressie M. , Briggs Robert G. , Sughrue Michael E. , Conner Andrew K.
Published: December 2020

Background:

Although transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has been indicated as a potential therapy for several neurologic conditions, there is little known regarding its use during the postoperative rehabilitation period in patients with brain tumors. Furthermore, seizures, a common presentation in these patients, are regarded as a major contraindication for TMS therapy.

Case Description:

We demonstrate that postoperative continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS), a patterned form of repetitive TMS, was safely tolerated in addition to current neurorehabilitation techniques in two brain tumor patients, including one patient with a history of tumor-related epilepsy. We administered navigated 5 Hz cTBS to two patients within 48 h following awake craniotomy for tumor resection. Active motor thresholds were measured in both patients before TBS administration to determine stimulus intensity. We used resting-state fMRI to identify likely damaged networks based on postoperative deficits. This aided in TMS planning and allowed deficit targeted therapy contralateral to the lesioned network node. Both patients tolerated TBS therapy well and had no adverse effects, including posttreatment seizures, despite one patient having a history of tumor-related epilepsy.

Conclusion:

TBS may be safe in the immediate postoperative period for patients following brain tumor resection. Additional studies are needed to quantify the efficacy of TMS in improving neurologic deficits following tumor resection.

ZnSe Quantum Dots: Determination of Molar Extinction Coefficients for UV to Blue Emitters

Published: December 2020

The focus on heavy metal-free visible emitters in optoelectronic devices has increased interest in ZnSe semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) over the past decade. Empirical fit equations correlating the lowest energy electron transition to their size and molar extinction coefficients (ε) are often used to determine the concentration of suspensions containing QDs. This is essential to the design and successful synthesis of complex semiconductor nanoparticles including core/shell and dot-in-rod heterostructures as well as consistent device fabrication. While these equations are known and heavily used for CdSe, CdTe, CdS, PbS, etc., they are not well established for ZnSe nanocrystals; the only two reports of ε in the literature differ by over an order of magnitude. In this study, a series of ZnSe QDs with diameters ranging from 2 to 6 nm were characterized with small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and UV-Vis spectroscopy. SAXS-based size analysis enabled practical inclusion of small particles in the evaluation. Elemental analysis with microwave plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (MP-AES) yields a non-stoichiometric Zn:Se ratio consistent with zinc-terminated spherical ZnSe QDs. Using these combined results, molar extinction coefficients for each QD sample were calculated. Empirical fit equations correlating QD size with its lowest energy electron transition (i.e., 1S peak position) and molar extinction coefficients for both 1S peak and high energy wavelengths are reported. These results will enable the consistent and reliable use of ZnSe core particles in complex heterostructures and devices.
