Climate Change and Sustainable Practices: Telehealth as a Tool for Sharing Indigenous Practices
Authors: Mota Jr. Américo , Guedes Ana Paula Penha , Santos Alane Mota dos , Valois Rafael , Bispo Erlei , Almeida Bruna , Armstrong Anderson
Published: December 2022

The use of telehealth is growing as an auxiliary tool for urbanized societies in the propagation of teaching and health care for Indigenous communities. However, little has been discussed regarding the potential applicability as an instrument for the propagation of Indigenous cultural traditions that positively impact the health and well-being of their communities, whose organizational habits influence the containment of climate change, or be it, conditions that favor the global health of the planet. The methodology that was used to choose which practices would be analyzed was based on the systematization carried out in 2019 by the United Nations. Articles published in the last five years were selected in order to ensure that the discussion would be guided by contemporary perspectives. We sought to enumerate some of the consequences that climate change may have for different social groups over the coming few decades and to report the agricultural practices of Brazilian Indigenous peoples, who apply sustainable methodologies in their daily lives, with habits that have been passed down from generation to generation. These practices could be propagated to urbanized industrial communities by means of the multiplication of an original telehealth program created and transmitted by Indigenous peoples, based on their millenary knowledge about sustainable community health.

Newborns undergo an average of 8 to 17 painful procedures per day. Among these interventions, we can highlight calcaneal puncture, which is normally used to perform the heel prick test. To reduce the sensation of pain, there are several non-pharmacological methods, including skin-to-skin contact and breastfeeding. Considering this, this study aims to analyze behavioral and physiological effects and the response to pain among newborns who received maternal breastfeeding and skin-to-skin contact during calcaneal puncture with those who were exposed to this procedure without using these measures. pharmacological. This is a descriptive study, with a quantitative approach, of an experimental-interventional nature. Data collection was carried out in an outpatient clinic of medical specialties, in a municipality located in the interior of the state of Minas Gerais, between September and October of the year 2021. A pain assessment scale was used for newborns. who underwent the calcaneal puncture procedure for blood collection to perform the heel prick test. In total, 12 newborns participated in this study. By analyzing the data obtained, we can conclude that skin-to-skin contact and breastfeeding during painful procedures proved to be efficient in some cases. Although the sample was small, this study had positive implications for those involved, such as understanding by the mother and health professionals regarding the benefits offered by breastfeeding and skin-to-skin contact during the Guthrie test.

Authors:   CIEG-UNAM, Collado Campos Alejandra Nallely
Published: December 2022

En este ensayo, la autora reflexiona sobre la forma en que las prácticas feministas inscritas en la cibercultura implican formas de praxis política vinculadas a la resistencia, la rebeldía, la creatividad, la transformación, y al registro de la historia de los feminismos y sus protagonistas. La llegada y el desarrollo del internet han modificado la existencia de ciertos movimientos feministas que, al insertarse en la práctica digital, detonan debates, apropiaciones y cambios que necesitan ser revisados desde la autocrítica y el reconocimiento del camino que se ha recorrido de manera colectiva. Estudiantes, académicas, trabajadoras del hogar, activistas, artistas, madres, raperas, bordadoras, poetas, talleristas y más aspiran a la construcción de otros mundos, y lo hacen conectadas en nodos que subvierten el orden simbólico al politizar lo digital cotidiano. Así, disputan los espacios, los lenguajes, las palabras y la memoria para seguir creando narrativas que reescriban la existencia del movimiento desde lo digital.

La Ciudad Universitaria de México y la mirada extranjera (1951-1968)
Authors: Nagel Vega Vanessa
Published: December 2022

La Ciudad Universitaria de México fue extensamente publicada en revistas internacionales en los años de su construcción, inauguración y posterior ocupación. La mirada extranjera confrontó otra manera de construir la modernidad en un tiempo en el que se empezaba a desconfiar de los modelos aceptados. Las soluciones artísticas de los edificios que utilizaron el recurso de la integración plástica propiciaron una verdadera avalancha de artículos de fondo, reseñas e informes de actualidad en las principales revistas de arquitectura europeas y estadounidenses. La discusión sobre el impacto social, la escala monumental del conjunto y el innovador programa urbano de esta obra excepcional quedaría al margen. La mirada extranjera apuntó a lo local, destacando aquellos valores regionales que apuntalaron el paradigma de la arquitectura moderna mexicana.

DDoSMitigator: An On-The-Fly Method of Mitigating Denial of Service Attack in Software Defined Networking
Authors: N G Sreejesh
Published: December 2022

Abstract: Started in the early 2000s, the Software Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm has become the backbone for various network based technologies. It has the advantage of being simple to manage and easy to add new features to the network. In comparison to legacy hardware-based networks, scalability, performance, and maintainability become more advanced. However, hackers are more likely to target the SDN, putting the entire network at risk. Denial of Service is a common example of such a threat. It is feasible to reduce such attacks by carefully planning and building the SDN controller as well as the network applications that administer the SDN. This paper presents a novel and efficient method applicable to various types of protocol based Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks in SDN/OpenFlow networks. It can be used to detect and mitigate Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) SYN attacks, Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) ping flood attacks and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) flood attacks that happen against the SDN devices and/or any host. This feature stands above the controller and conforms to the OpenFlow policy without leveraging additional devices. All the detection and mitigation are done based on a True Host list which is created by tracking the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) requests and replies from hosts. As ARP protocol is necessarily used by all hosts, this method can be effectively utilised for true host list creation and further attack detection and mitigation

Published: December 2022

In the relevant Governor’s Regulations regarding LPD, it is not regulated regarding the value of guaranteed deposits for each customer at an LPD that is a participant in the deposit guarantee. The absence of legal regulations governing the value of deposits guaranteed through the LPD customer fund guarantee scheme has led to the need for a study of the extent of protection obtained by LPD customers for their deposit funds under this scheme. This research aims to examine deposit guarantee schemes for LPD customers and legal protection for customer funds at LPD through the loan fund scheme organised by LPLPD. This research is conducted using a normative juridical research method by conducting an analysis on primary legal materials and secondary legal materials related to the present research problems. Based on the analysis, it was found the LPD customer deposit guarantee scheme has not been able to provide legal protection to the customers. This is because in the deposit guarantee scheme, membership is discretionary so not all LPD customers in Bali get protection. The absence of regulation regarding the criteria to determine the amount of contribution and guarantee premium paid and the amount of customer deposits protected by the LPD customer deposit guarantee scheme has resulted in the absence of legal certainty regarding the amount of protected LPD customer funds.

Published: December 2022

Abstract

Antibiotic resistance is closely related to the inappropriate use of antibiotics, namely the indication, dose, frequency, and duration of use. Permenkes No. 5 of 2014 states that acute pharyngitis is given antibiotic therapy if it meets the diagnostic criteria using the center criteria, but this criterion is difficult to apply because doctors take longer to diagnose. Previous research at the Klungkung I Primary Health Center used diagnosis utilizing a swab test. It was found that 100% of bacterial pharyngitis patients were negative. The strategy of delaying antibiotics for 3 days can prevent antibiotic resistance, but in therapy, without antibiotics, it is important to increase the effectiveness of therapy, it is deemed necessary by the researchers to conduct a study to analyze the factors that affect the recovery of patients with acute pharyngitis, which are mainly caused by viruses. Analyzing the factors that affect the recovery of viral pharyngitis patients. The design of the cross-sectional study was through observation of the medical record data of patients who came to the Klungkung Primary Health Center I for 3 months and got diagnostic facilities using the swab test. Patients who got a negative swab test were analyzed for the factors that influenced their recovery. Anti-inflammatory variables, rest, and paracetamol significantly affected the recovery of acute pharyngitis patients (p <0.05), and the importance index in CART analysis found that paracetamol was the most influential, followed by rest, administration of vitamins, and anti-inflammatory. Antibiotics, anti-allergies, and cough medicines do not affect the recovery of patients with acute pharyngitis viral. Paracetamol has the most effect on patient recovery, followed by rest and administration of vitamins, anti-inflammatory has very little effect on the recovery in patients of acute pharyngitis viral.

Abstract

Nigella sativa (N. sativa) has been used in traditional medicine, and several studies have been performed in the last decades to reveal its effects of it on different medical disorders such as diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and obesity. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of Nigella sativa extract in an alloxan-induced mice model. This research was a true experimental post-test-only control group design. Eight-weeks old male Mus musculus were treated with alloxan (150 mg/ kg) by a single intraperitoneal injection to induce diabetes mellitus. At three days of injection, N. sativa extract (150 and 300 mg/kg) was administered via gavage for two weeks. The result of this study showed that N. sativa seed extract had a significant (P<0.05) nephroprotective effect on the kidneys based on the degree of kidney damage in alloxan-induced mice. This effect may be due to Nigella sativa’s antioxidant properties.

MONETARY POLICY AND INSURANCE SECTOR PERFORMANCE IN NIGERIA
Authors: Obayagbona Joel , Ajao Mayowa Gabriel
Published: December 2022

ABSTRACT

The study empirically examines the effect of monetary policy on the performance of insurance sector in Nigeria for the period 1985 to 2021. The error correction model (ECM) and the cointegration econometric technique were employed for the estimation of the short run and long run relationship. The empirical findings revealed that in the short run, all the hypothesized monetary policy variables (monetary policy rate, cash reserve ratio, reserve requirement, minimum rediscount rate, money supply and interest rate) failed the 5 percent significance level, suggesting that they do not have significant effect on insurance sector performance in Nigeria in the short run. On the other hands, the results of the long run model indicate that monetary policy rate, cash reserve ratio and minimum rediscount rate have significant positive relationship with insurance sector performance. However, those of reserve requirement, money supply and interest rate do not have significant relationship with the performance of insurance sector in Nigeria within the period of investigation. The study recommends among others that since the result from the study has shown that Monetary policy rate significantly impact insurance performance, it therefore follows that activities of insurance firms as well as their overall performance can be adversely impacted by monetary policy decisions if not proactively prepared for and responded to. To this end, management should evolve appropriate strategy that would enable them proactively tackle unfavourable business environment resulting in macroeconomic risks in order to avoid adverse operating losses.

Hypothesis testing is carried out using smart PLS version 3.0. The findings showed a significant effect between organizational justice and job satisfaction, between Organizational justice and OCB, and between Job satisfaction and OCB. Thus, Job satisfaction only acts as a partial mediation. This finding indicates that organizational justice and job satisfaction can directly influence the increase in OCB without going through the mediator variables. Therefore, improving OCB can be done by directly enhancing the perception of organizational justice and directly improving job satisfaction.

Plots about an Elephant in the Notes on Muscovy by Heinrich von Staden and in Old Russian Literature of the 12th–16th Centuries
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Tufanova Olga A.
Published: December 2022

The article examines the literary originality of story about an unusual gift of Iranian Shah to the Russian Tsar in the Notes on Muscovy by Heinrich von Staden, analyzes the features of using the estrangement technique when assessing the actions of Russian people in relation to an elephant and Arab caring for him, specifics of perception and image of guardsmen. By refusing to use figurative and expressive means and presenting only facts, Staden involuntarily creates in the reader a special perception of Russian guardsmen as cynical people, for whom the violation of moral norms and the cult of ruthless arbitrariness is a way of life. The story of an elephant, inscribed in the general story of oprichnina, demonstrates Staden’s dismissive attitude towards Ivan the Terrible and his subjects as cruel, immoral barbarians, unable to value diplomatic gifts of status, to take care of a living being properly, or to be guided by elementary logic in assessing events. Overview of the Old Russian sources that mention elephants showed that the development of plots goes along four lines: the first is the description of an animal and symbolic interpretation, the second is the mention of elephants as an exotic of Eastern countries, the third is the use of elephants to demonstrate the wealth of a particular person and/or as an intimidation of the enemy in battle, the fourth — the features of capturing elephants. Against this background, the Notes on Muscovy by Heinrich von Staden with a detailed plot about an elephant presented to Ivan the Terrible, look very exotic for Old Russian literature. A fact doubtful from the point of view of historical authenticity, a strange murder of an animal, an insulting description of Russians as cruel barbarians — all this, most likely, was the reason for the absence of this plot in the original literature, contemporary with the writing of the Notes on Muscovy, however, as well as in Russian seventeenth century literature.
“Society Did not Notice Her, Passed Her by”: from the History of the Study of “Exotic” Plots in the Works of Lesya Ukrainka
Authors:   Moscow State Institute of International Relations (MGIMO University), Lesnaya Galina M.
Published: December 2022

The article examines the initial stage in the study of Lesya Ukrainka’s works, where most of the plots and images of her poetry were perceived by contemporaries and the next generation of readers as “exotic.” Not understood by contemporaries, the legacy of Lesya Ukrainka turned out to be in demand in the 1920s, at that time the main directions of research of her work were laid. The main merit in popularizing the poetry of Lesya Ukrainka belongs to a group of “neoclassical” poets and literary critics close to them, who taught readers to “love and understand” her works with “exotic” plots. As a circumstance that influenced the specific imagery of Lesya Ukrainka’s poetry, researchers of that time highlighted the writer’s immersion in world literature. For the second time, a deep interest in the work of Lesya Ukrainka arose at the turn of the 20–21st centuries in connection with the publication and study of the heritage of Ukrainian modernists of the early 20th century. Then some facts of her biography were rediscovered and many aspects of her legacy were rethought. New facets of the writer’s works allow us to explore the “Complete Academic Collection of Works” by Lesya Ukrainka, published in 2021, and dedicated to the 150th anniversary of her birth. It provides an opportunity to analyze the process of her becoming and formation as a creative personality, which took place under the influence of the environment, upbringing and work on literary translations.

Introduction: In fatal accidents during scuba diving it is necessary to differentiate a death from primary drowning from a secondary drowning death primarily due to other etiopathogenetic factors. The inhalation of water can only be the end point of a series of events alone capable of causing the diver’s exitus. The aim of this study is demonstrate that even low-risk heart diseases in daily life become potentially fatal during scuba diving. Methods: In this case series we describe all cases of death in the course of diving that came to the observation of the Forensic Institute of the University of Bari over a period of 20 years (2000-2020). Judicial autopsy was performed on all subjects with ancillary execution of histological and toxicological investigations. Results: The results of the medicolegal investigations carried out in the complex identified heart failure with acute myocardial infarction as the cause of death in four cases characterized by severe myocardiocoronarosclerosis, a primary drowning in a subject without previous pathological substrate in one case, and a terminal atrial fibrillation induced by acute dynamic heart failure due to functional overload of the right ventricle in one case Conclusion: Our study demonstrates that lethal events during diving are often related to the presence of unrecognized or subclinical cardiovascular diseases. Such deaths could be prevented and avoided if a greater regulatory sensitivity to the prevention and control of diving was encouraged, considering both the inherent risks of this activity and the possible unrecognized or underestimated pathologies.

Purpose: Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is a time-sensitive urgent condition. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of hearing improvement in patients with idiopathic SSNHL who only received hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) therapy within 3 days of symptom onset, instead of conventional corticosteroid treatment. Methods: The medical charts of patients who experienced SSNHL between January 1, 2012, and December 31, 2021, were reviewed. The present study included all adult patients who were diagnosed with idiopathic SSNHL and started HBO2 therapy within 72 hours of symptom onset. These subjects did not take corticosteroids due to contraindications or because they were concerned about possible side effects. The HBO2 therapy protocol consisted of at least 10 sessions of 85 minutes each with pure oxygen inhalation at 2.5 atmospheres absolute pressure. Results: Overall, 49 subjects (26 males and 23 females) met the inclusion criteria, with a mean age of 47 (± 20.4) years. The mean initial hearing threshold was 69.8 dB (± 18.0). After HBO2 therapy, complete hearing recovery was observed in 35 patients (71.4%), and the mean hearing threshold improved significantly (P<0.001) to 31.4 dB (± 24.5). In patients with complete hearing recovery, no significant differences were found between males and females (P=0.79), right and left ears (P=0.72) or initial grades of hearing loss (P=0.90). Conclusion: This study suggests that, in the absence of the confounding effect of concurrent steroid therapy, starting HBO2 therapy within 3 days of symptom onset could have a positive impact on patients with idiopathic SSNHL.

Carbon monoxide (CO) and cyanide poisoning are frequent causes of morbidity and mortality in cases of house and industrial fires. The 14th edition of guidelines from the Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society does not recommend hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) treatment in those patients who have suffered a cardiac arrest and had to receive cardiopulmonary resuscitation [1]. In this paper we describe a case of a 31-year-old patient who received HBO2 treatment in the setting of cardiac arrest and survived.
Operational risk, market risk and value of the asset managers
Authors: Polato Maurizio , Velliscig Giulio
Published: December 2022

Asset management has been one of the fastest-growing industries in the financial industry for a long time (Bigelli & Manuzzi, 2019). Moreover, after the eruption of the financial turmoil in 2008, financial intermediation has been characterized by a rapid increase in the role of the asset management industry. This paper aims to analyse the determinants of asset manager value and, in particular, it is focused on the value implicit in the assets under management. Starting from the works by Huberman (2005) and Joenväärä and Scherer (2017) the paper proposes a model for determining the enterprise value (EV) of asset managers by assessing the role of the contribution margin and the degree of risk (operational and market risk). As noted by Scherer (2008), following the financial crisis, asset management companies suffered a decline in profits, also due to the exposure of their revenues to the market risk. Although, as it’s known, the asset management firms are not directly subject to the market (and credit) risk, their revenues are exposed to the market risk, not only to the operational risk that had been thought of as the main risk factor (Hull, 2007). Management companies, in fact, operate in a cyclical context closely linked to the performance of the financial markets, which contributes to determining the size and volatility of the assets under management (AuM). Starting from a discounted cash flow (DCF) asset side model, a simple stochastic Monte Carlo simulation is provided in order to capture the relevance of the asset under management return and volatility and, therefore, the volatility of the benchmark return and management style. In this theoretical framework, the key point is that the enterprise value depends on the specific asset class the firm is involved with. Given the asset class, the enterprise value depends on the management style also.
Formulation of a modern anti-human glioma drug from nanoparticles green-synthesized using Ocimum basilicum: A pre-clinical trial study
Authors: Xing Nianzeng
Published: December 2022

This research showed that the iron nanoparticles (FeNPs) formulated with
Ocimum basilicum aqueous extract having potent antioxidant and
anti-human glioma activities in vitro condition. For determinate the
properties of the FeNPs that were produced from the reaction between
iron chloride solution with aqueous Ocimum basilicum extract, we used
UV–Visible Spectroscopy (UV-Vis), Field Emission Scanning Electron
Microscopy (FE‐SEM), and Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy
(FT‐IR). To survey the cytotoxicity and anti-human glioma effects of
FeNPs, MTT assay was used on the SW1088, LN-229, U-87 and A-172 cell
lines. For investigating the antioxidant properties of FeNPs, the DPPH
test was used in the presence of butylated hydroxytoluene as the
positive control. Iron nanoparticles had very low cell viability and
anti-human glioma properties dose-dependently against SW1088, LN-229,
U-87 and A-172 cell lines without any cytotoxicity on the normal cell
line. The IC50 of the iron nanoparticles were 101, 75, 97, and 54 µg/ml
against SW1088, LN-229, U-87 and A-172 cell lines. DPPH test revealed
similar antioxidant potentials for FeNPs and butylated hydroxytoluene.
It seems that the anti-human glioma effects of recent nanoparticles is
due to their antioxidant properties.

Linear IgA bullous dermatosis (LABD) is an autoimmune/inflammatory skin
condition. Here, we report on a patient who developed treatment
resistant LABD. At diagnosis, elevations of IL-6 and C-reactive protein
in the blood and extreme elevations in LABD bullous fluid were seen. The
patient responded well to tocilizumab (anti-IL-6 receptor) treatment.
