Identification of Professional Nursing Care Needs: Experiences of Hospitalized High-Risk Pregnant Women
Authors: Acevedo Cano María Eugenia , Vásquez Truisi Martha Lucía
Published: February 2025

Introduction: Understanding the world of pregnant women with high obstetric risk (HOBR), contemplating the reality they live in, allows for a profound understanding of the meanings they assign to their care. This contributes to establishing person-centered care. Objective: To understand the experiences of hospitalized HOBR pregnant women in a highly complex health institution regarding the care provided by nursing professionals in identifying their needs. Materials and Methods: A qualitative interpretative study was conducted from 2017 to 2019 in the HOBR unit of the Hospital Universitario del Valle, Colombia. On average, two in-depth interviews were conducted with each of the ten women in the sample of the ten pregnant women of sample, until the criterion of saturation of meanings was reached. The analysis and interpretation conceptualized the participants’ reality based on emergent topics from the narrated facts, identifying similarities and differences, which allowed the determination of categories under Benner’s philosophical concepts. Results: the research explained how care is delivered, based on Swanson’s theoretical framework. Four categories were identified: 1) The pregnant woman-nurse relationship: Care involved; 2) The meanings of their lived experiences; 3) Hospitalization as a circumstance that disrupts the pregnant woman’s connection with her loved ones, and 4) The experiences of pregnant women as a source of meaning to understand the institutional context. Conclusions: Addressing the expressed needs of pregnant women enables nursing professionals to advance in care practices informed by Swanson’s theory.
The Clinical Severity of Patients in Intensive Care Units Determines Nurse Assignments
Authors: Mendoza Oviedo María Carolina , Borja González Juana , De Las Salas Martínez Roxana , Orta-Visbal Kevin
Published: February 2025

Introduction: Intensive care units are highly complex services designed to maintain the vital functions of patients who require specialized care and assistance, so it is necessary to allocate an adequate number of nursing professionals, according to the clinical conditions, to provide a response and continuity of care. In Colombia there is no legislation that quantitatively establishes this ratio, so it is usually determined by the installed capacity and not by the complexity of nursing interventions; therefore, this study becomes an asset to promote public policies for personnel allocation. Objective: To determine the nurse-patient ratio according to clinical severity in two intensive care units in the Colombian Caribbean. Materials and Methods: This is a quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional study conducted in two intensive care units (Sincelejo and Barranquilla), for which the TISS-28 (Simplified Therapeutic Intervention Score System) instrument was used for a three-month period. A total of 15 nursing professionals and 469 patients participated. Approval was granted by the Ethics Committee of the Universidad del Norte. Results: According to the severity of patient conditions, grade III was prevalent, that is, requiring intensive monitoring, with a time for nursing interventions ranging from 201.5–413.4 min (3.3 h – 6.89 h), and the need for a nurse-patient ratio of 1:2. Conclusions: There is a shortage of nursing professionals in the participating units to meet care needs.

Biostimulants are considered as biological, organic and synthetic components that promote the plant growth and also they have been used as an additive for improving in the plant tissue culture technology the successful initiation, regeneration and micropropagation of in vitro culture of higher plants The aim of the present work was to analyze the effect of Ulva fasciata seaweed powder on the growth and differentiation of Sedum praealtum in vitro culture. The measurements of the area and perimeter descriptors showed a particularly positive effect at 0.25% U. fasciata powder, followed by the experimental condition of culture with 0.5% U. fasciata powder with more area and perimeter than control explants, respectively with statistical significance. Regarding to the morphometric relationship between aspect ratio (AR) and roundness of the explants, all of the experimental conditions with and without the U. fasciata powder indicated that all of S. praealtum explants were closer to the ellipsoidal values than to the roundness. Also in this study, not only the nature of phytohormones present in the media tested (naphthalene acetic acid and kinetin) for S. praealtum explants culture were determinant; also the addition of seaweed powder may be promoted the growth of them and also an initial changes of morphogenesis with the evidence of an incipient callus.
Editorial

Published: February 2025

The present issue (vol. 4, no. 2) of the transcript: An e-Journal of Literary and Cultural Studies contains four articles and one book review. The subject-matters of the submissions range widely from a mid-20th-century canonical British literary text to the modern-day English interpretations of ancient fables, to postcolonial literatures in English, to an early-twenty-first-century British novel plus one review of a book on food cultures, a relatively non-literary subject. Radoje V. Šoškić’s article on “The Myth of Osiris in William Golding’s Lord of the Flies and the Inadequacy of Scientific Humanism” explores the author’s literary–cultural engagement with the Egyptian mythology and analyses the parallels drawn by him in the context of scientific humanism in the modern-day world. The interface between myth/fable and modern literature is found likewise in the article by Punitha Andrews & Dr. S.S. Thakur, entitled “Aesop’s The Fox and the Grapes: A Socio-Linguistic and Sociological Study of Its English Adaptations,” which draws attention to the sociological aspects of adaptation and the resultant transformations brought about in vocabulary, syntax, and narrative structures. Shaleen Kumar Singh’s article “Nature and Landscape in Derek Walcott’s Poetry” shifts attention to the Caribbean environment and explores the poet’s masterful representation of the region’s varied ecoscapes vis-à-vis the localised dynamics of nature–human interaction expressed through an analysis of his select poetical works. The fourth article, on “Terror Narratives in Contemporary Literature: Analyzing Complexity, Conflicting Ideas, Challenges, and Suggesting Future Directions in Ian McEwan’s Saturday,” by Soumaya Barki & Fatima Zahra Bessedik, adopts a transmodernist perspective for studying the interplay between the dominant neo-Orientalist and counter-narrative discourses in the context of the twenty-first-century situations of uncertainty, anxiety, trauma, and helplessness in the post-9/11 world. Finally, Gargee Gautam provides an interesting overview of the edited book on Food Cultures of India, published in 2024, which brings together a range of studied engagements and critical opinions on the varied disciplinary manifestations of Food Studies in the twenty-first century.
El Derecho extranjero en el laberinto procesal civil: medios de fijación y posibilidades si estos fracasan (interés público o privado del litigio como criterio de decisión
Authors: Buchhalter Montero Brian
Published: February 2025

El Derecho extranjero no deja de ser Derecho por recibir, en el proceso civil español, un tratamiento similar al de los hechos. Puede ser acreditado por todas las maneras admisibles en Derecho (aunque unas son a priori más adecuadas que otros). Por otro lado, el Juez puede fundar su resolución en el conocimiento privado que tenga del Derecho extranjero, siempre que lo ponga tempestivamente de relieve a las partes, de modo que la resolución no sea sorpresiva. Las diligencias finales no son medio idóneo para acreditar el Derecho extranjero que debió haber sido normalmente fijado en momentos anteriores del proceso. Por otro lado, cuando las partes fracasan en la acreditación del Derecho extranjero, hay tres esenciales posibilidades: investigar de oficio y aplicar el Derecho extranjero; aplicar la lex fori; y desestimar la demanda. Para determinar qué solución es preferible en el caso concreto es necesario distinguir: si en el asunto se ventila un interés público, entonces deberá investigarse de oficio el Derecho extranjero con todos los esfuerzos posibles y, si consigue el Tribunal conocerlo suficientemente (o presumirlo con un razonable grado de acierto), aplicarlo. Si fracasa en esa tarea, debe aplicar la lex fori. Si, por el contrario, el asunto es meramente privado y las partes fracasan (voluntariamente o no), entonces deben aplicarse las normas sobre la carga de la prueba y hacer real la distribución del riesgo de no acreditar lo que había que acreditar.

Pre-injection local anesthesia does not affect experienced pain in intra-articular hip injections
Authors: Albagli Assaf , Rath Ehud , Druckmann Ido , Efrima Ben , Kazum Efi , Parnes Nata , Sandler Alexis B , Tyler John , Amar Eyal
Published: February 2025

BACKGROUND

Intra-articular hip injections (IAHIs) are commonly used for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes but are often associated with patient anxiety and fear. The disparity between anticipated and experienced pain during IAHIs and the role of pre-injection local anesthesia in pain modulation remains unclear.

AIM

To investigate the difference between anticipated and experienced pain during IAHIs and the impact of pre-injection local anesthesia.

METHODS

This prospective study enrolled 60 patients undergoing IAHI, 30 receiving pre-injection superficial local anesthesia and 30 serving as a control group without pre-injection local anesthesia. Pain levels were assessed using numeric rating scales.

RESULTS

Patients significantly overestimated anticipated pain compared to experienced pain (6.43 ± 2.48 vs 3.68 ± 2.37, P < 0.001). Pre-injection local anesthesia did not significantly reduce experienced pain (3.19 ± 2.38 vs 4.20 ± 2.29, P = 0.130).

CONCLUSION

Patients overestimate anticipated pain during IAHIs. Pre-injection local anesthesia does not reduce experienced pain.
Percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic treatment of gas-containing pseudocyst compressing the L5 nerve root: A case report
Authors: Jiang Zhen-Xian , Ren Ji-Bin , Li Yu-Cai , Chen Lei
Published: February 2025

BACKGROUND

Gas-containing pseudocysts rarely cause of lumbar radiculopathy. This report describes successful treatment of a gas-containing pseudocyst using percutaneous transforaminal endoscopy.

CASE SUMMARY

A 48-year-old man presented with severe pain and numbness in his right leg, which worsened upon walking or weight bearing. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a gas-containing cyst compressing the left L5 nerve root at the L4–5 level. The pseudocyst was successfully removed using a percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic discectomy. Vivid and clear endoscopic imaging of the pseudocysts was performed intraoperatively. The patient experienced immediate pain relief and was discharged one day after the operation. The patient returned to work. Moreover, numbness in the right leg returned to normal within 6 months. At the one-year follow-up, there was no symptoms recurrence.

CONCLUSION

Transforaminal endoscopy offers excellent surgical visualization and facilitates meticulous operative manipulation, making it a minimally invasive approach for treating gas-containing pseudocysts in the intervertebral foramen.
Return to work and resumption of driving after anterior minimally invasive total hip arthroplasty
Authors: Ishikura Hisatoshi , Masuyama Yuji , Fujita Sho , Tanaka Takeyuki , Tanaka Sakae , Nishiwaki Toru
Published: February 2025

BACKGROUND

Return to work (RTW) and resumption of driving (ROD) are critical factors that influence postoperative quality of life in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, few studies have focused on the minimally invasive (MIS) approach and its effect on these outcomes.

AIM

To investigate RTW and ROD's timelines and influencing factors following anterior MIS-THA.

METHODS

A retrospective analysis was conducted on 124 patients who underwent anterior MIS-THA. Data on the demographics, occupational physical demands, and RTW/ROD timelines were also collected. Clinical outcomes were measured using standardised scoring systems. Statistical analyses were performed to evaluate the differences between the groups based on employment status and physical workload.

RESULTS

Among employed patients, the RTW rate was 94.7%, with an average return time of five weeks. The average ROD time was 3.5 weeks across all patients. Despite similar postoperative clinical scores, RTW time was significantly influenced by occupations' physical workload, with heavier physical demands associated with delayed RTW.

CONCLUSION

Anterior MIS-THA facilitates early RTW and ROD, particularly in occupations with lower physical demands. These findings highlight the importance of considering occupational and physical workload in postoperative care planning to optimize recovery outcomes.
Analyzing the hierarchical relationships for a group of Sciurus granatensis (Mammalia: Rodentia: Humboldt, 1811) in Caracas, Venezuela
Authors: Santana Castro Irina , Sainz Borgo Cristina
Published: February 2025

Social relationships within mammalian groups involve the development of hierarchical relationships among their members to avoid conflict. This hierarchy is established through aggressive dyadic encounters. Therefore, one way to determine if a hierarchy exists is to quantify the aggression-submission interactions and the movements between pairs of individuals. Here, we studied the social interactions in a group of Sciurus granatensis located within an urban forest patch in the city of Caracas, Venezuela, in order to determine the existence of a dominance hierarchy during their visits to the available artificial feeder. Also, we propose a non-invasive identification method to the identification of individuals based on morphological characters. The individuals were filmed for 19 consecutive days, from their resting areas to the trough. Interactions were analyzed using focal observation and exploration methods, which were subsequently described on an ethogram and classified into displacement (intimidation and withdrawal) and aggression (attack and attack with persecution). Overall, 19 individuals were identified within the group and 156 (with a daily average of 8.2 ± 4.3) interactions were recorded for 11 of them. The most common form of interaction was intimidation. Moreover, it was found that there were residents and occasional visitors in the group. The existence of dominance was determined with a Landau linearity index (h = 0.636). Two individuals shared the highest hierarchical rank. We observed a significant inverse correlation between tail thickness and the social rank. We concluded, based on the non-invasive identification system proposed, that there is a linear hierarchy in the group.
The Value of Non-Instrumental Information in Anxiety: Insights from a Resource-Rational Model of Planning
Authors: Bari Bilal A. , Gershman Samuel J.
Published: February 2025

Anxiety is intimately related to the desire for information and, under some accounts, thought to arise from the intolerance of uncertainty. Here, we seek to test this hypothesis by studying the relationship between trait anxiety and the willingness to pay for non-instrumental information (i.e., information that reveals whether an event will happen but cannot be used to change the outcome). We model behavior with a resource-rational model of planning, according to which non-instrumental information is useful for planning ahead, but paying for this information only makes sense if the anticipated benefits of planning outweigh the cognitive and financial costs. We find a bidirectional effect of trait anxiety factors on information seeking behavior: those with high trait somatic anxiety exhibit a stronger preference for non-instrumental information, whereas those with high trait negative affect exhibit a weaker preference. By fitting the resource-rational model, we find that this divergent desire for information arises from the utility of obtaining information for future planning (increased in somatic anxiety, decreased in negative affect). Our findings lend support to the intolerance of uncertainty hypothesis in somatic anxiety and highlight the importance of studying anxiety as a multifactorial construct.
FINANCIAL LITERACY AWARENESS ON CRYPTOCURRENCY AMONGST WOMEN TEACHING FRATERNITY IN CHENNAI
Authors: A Ruban Christopher. , Nithya Dr. A.R.
Published: February 2025

Cryptocurrency, the digital or virtual currency is gaining prevalence in the Indian economy in recent years steadily surging on the crypto adoption rate phenomenally. The Finder’s Cryptocurrency Adoption Index report dated Nov 2022 that measured the growth of cryptocurrencies worldwide through an ongoing survey of internet users in 26 countries finds that, India has the highest number of crypto owners in the world with 27.45 crore accounts, of whom 60% are men and 40% are women. Previous research studies also show that, despite the regulatory uncertainty and confusion regarding policies affecting cryptocurrency, India’s crypto adoption rate has continued to grow rapidly, signaling strong growth in interest and acceptance of crypto especially among the female users. In this paper we explore the socio demographic preferences for the cryptocurrency awareness of the women; in particular the women teaching fraternity from the city of Chennai. The study reveals that, 77% of the women teachers are aware of the term cryptocurrency. The four socio demographic variables viz Age group, Nature of Employment, Place of College Education and Net Salary show the significant relationship with the cryptocurrency awareness level of the women teachers; while other variables like, their educational level, educational stream and place of school education do not show the level of significance statistically.

Policy Tools for Preventing and Handling Sexual Violence at Universitas Negeri Padang
Authors: Saputra Rico
Published: February 2025

This research discusses the policy tools made by Padang State University (UNP) in handling cases of sexual violence within the institution. Usually when sexual violence occurs, both against lecturers and students or female students, victims are confused about where to report it. If reported to the department or faculty level, victims usually cannot be handled properly because there are no guidelines that become benchmarks in preventing and handling sexual violence on campus. Therefore, a comprehensive and integrated policy tool is needed, starting from clear reporting procedures, structured case handling mechanisms, to an adequate victim assistance system.This research is a type of descriptive research with qualitative methods. The data collection techniques used are interviews and documentation. Informants in this study include the UNP PPKS Task Force, UNP Tendik, UNP Lecturers and UNP Students. This research uses the Policy Instrument Theory from Howlett and Ramesh (1995) which divides instruments into 3 (three) groups, namely, Compulsory Policy Instruments, Voluntary Policy Instruments, and Mixed Policy Instruments.The results of this study indicate that the implementation of the policy tools of Permendikbudristek No. 30 of 2021 at UNP has been running through various policy instruments, although there are several instruments that have not been implemented optimally. Referring to the Policy Instrument Theory proposed by Howlett and Ramesh (1995) shows that of the six existing policy instruments, four instruments have been fulfilled well, namely regulations, direct provisions, voluntary organizations, and information and exhortation. The other two instruments, namely public enterprises and subsidies, have not been fulfilled optimally due to constraints in coordination with government agencies and limited funding systems. UNP needs to strengthen coordination mechanisms with government agencies and develop a direct subsidy scheme for victims of sexual violence to ensure more effective policy implementation.

Perceptions and experiences with academic group work in online and in-person classroom contexts: Perspectives across levels of undergraduate study
Authors: Vogel Natasha , Wood Eileen , Pinto Sabrina
Published: February 2025

Group work is a commonly used and highly regarded learning tool in tertiary education. While previous research has examined collaboration within higher education contexts, no study has investigated student preferences and experiences across different years of study. This is essential for a better understanding of how to effectively integrate collaborative learning into the undergraduate curriculum. The present study surveyed first year, second year and senior (3rd and 4th year) undergraduate students (n = 100 per group) to gather insights regarding their experiences with collaborative learning as a function of year of study and in both in-person and online contexts. Overall, preferences regarding group composition (e.g., group size) and experiences regarding group work (e.g.,  efficiency, motivation, satisfaction, stress) were consistent across the year of study. However, notable shifts in experiences were observed, particularly from first to second year, with respect to instructor-related variables (i.e., group formation strategies, leadership opportunities) and student-related variables (i.e., perceived difficulty producing assignments, level of collaboration in groups, learning experiences and enjoyment). Some differences were also observed between in-person and online contexts. Implications for future studies and instructional design are discussed.

To fill the gap in the previous studies, the study aims to examine the institutional constraints and reform of the EU in response to the Ukraine conflict. Employing a combination of institutional economics approaches with geopolitical perspectives, the study finds that the EU should prioritize strengthening its institutional resilience and enhancing strategic autonomy to safeguard its interests and take a proactive role in shaping the global order. Aligning diverse policy interest groups with the common security and foreign policy of the EU can foster greater cohesion in foreign and security affairs. Furthermore, the study also uses a mathematical-logical framework to address institutional reform in response to external shocks, considering several factors such as institutional entrepreneurship, transaction costs, path dependence, and more coherent policy interests of member states for its adaptive efficiency. The institutional reform needs to address some institutional constraints of the EU, such as limited military capabilities, diverse policy interest groups, energy dependence on Russia, and geopolitical factors such as the global rivalry between the USA and China.

Trihalomethanes (THMs) in drinking water are a growing concern in Latin America due to their health risks and regulatory inconsistencies. This study examines existing regulations, detected levels, and analytical methodologies used across the region through a combined approach that includes bibliometric analysis, a systematic review of scientific literature, and a regulatory analysis. A comprehensive search of Web of Science and Scopus, using the search equation: "trihalomethanes" AND "water" AND "drinking," identified 73 relevant articles published between 2000 and 2024. The regulatory frameworks of all Latin American countries were analyzed. The study categorized countries based on their regulatory frameworks, compiled reported THM concentrations, and assessed advancements in analytical methodologies. The results reveal a pronounced regional disparity: while countries like Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, and Chile have developed regulatory frameworks and extensive research, other nations lack both regulations and studies entirely. The detected levels of THMs show significant variability, and in some cases, they far exceed the limits recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO), notably Brazil, with concentrations as high as 4220 µg/L. Analytical methodologies have evolved toward more efficient and environmentally sustainable techniques, such as headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) and hollow fiber solvent bar microextraction (HF-SBME), enabling more precise detection in the ng/L to µg/L range. Effective strategies for controlling THMs were identified, including optimizing disinfection processes, removing precursors through nanofiltration and activated carbon, and using alternative disinfectants. The study highlights the urgent need for harmonized regulations, systematic monitoring, and increased research efforts to address knowledge gaps in THM contamination in drinking water across Latin America. The findings underscore the importance of implementing national and regional monitoring programs, developing evidence-based regulatory frameworks, and promoting research in underrepresented countries to ensure safe drinking water and mitigate public health risks.

Published: February 2025

This study investigates the implementation of green marketing strategies in tourism destinations, emphasizing sustainability practices to drive environmental and economic outcomes. A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted to analyze recent scholarly contributions on green marketing efforts across various tourist locations, focusing on their influence on sustainability and competitiveness. The findings indicate that green marketing strategies promote environmental sustainability by encouraging eco-friendly practices, optimizing resource utilization, and minimizing pollution levels. These initiatives not only support ecological balance but also contribute significantly to the economic development of tourism destinations, enhancing their competitiveness in the global market. Nevertheless, challenges remain, including substantial infrastructure costs and limited engagement from critical stakeholders, which can hinder the broader adoption of green marketing strategies. The study highlights the importance of a multidimensional approach that integrates environmental, social, and economic aspects to fully harness the benefits of green marketing in tourism. Such an approach can facilitate more effective and sustainable development of tourism destinations. The study suggests that future research should expand its focus to include emerging markets, thereby providing a more comprehensive understanding of global green marketing strategies and their impact. This broader perspective can guide policymakers, tourism operators, and stakeholders in crafting strategies that align with sustainability goals while maintaining economic viability, ultimately fostering a more sustainable tourism industry worldwide.

Published: February 2025

Through this paperwork research, we aim to explore and analyze the role and impact of social sciences literature in the development of students' skills and abilities in the process of education. The literature offers our students a great opportunity to learn and develop their knowledge in education to a higher level. This research was designed to be a tool for assessing and evaluating students' perceptions, targeting the students of the Social Sciences Department at Gjakova University and the students of the Education Department at Gjilan University. Our sample consists of 150 students from both aforementioned universities. The questionnaire is divided into two parts: the first part includes demographic variables such as gender, ethnicity, and academic profile. Meanwhile, the second part delves deeper into students' perceptions and evaluations regarding literature and sociology in the development of their skills in general education. In terms of methodology, the study focuses on two primary research methods: a quantitative study involving surveyed students from social sciences and education, and a focus group with selected students from the two faculties. The overall findings reveal that literature and social sciences significantly contribute to the development of students' critical thinking, analytical abilities, and social discourse, enhancing their academic, psychological, social, and cultural development. By exploring this relationship, the study presents a novel approach to integrating these disciplines, marking one of the first of its kind in Kosovo. Thus, the study's implications suggest significant recommendations not only for students and academic institutions but also for other stakeholders. It advocates for the integration of literature and sociology as a vital part of university curricula in new academic programs, emphasizing the importance of raising awareness about utilizing these disciplines within general and higher education for students.
