Authors: Pazmiño-Duarte Diana , Samaniego-González Pamela , Batista-Hernandez Noel
Published: November 2024

El principio de interés superior del niño es un mandato fundamental que debe guiar todas las acciones y decisiones relacionadas con los derechos de los niños, niñas y adolescentes. En el contexto migratorio del Ecuador, este principio adquiere especial relevancia debido a la vulnerabilidad de los menores en situaciones de desplazamiento o migración forzada. Este concepto está alineado con tratados internacionales como la Convención sobre los Derechos del Niño.El contexto migratorio del Ecuador, que ha visto un aumento en la migración interna y transfronteriza en los últimos años, plantea desafíos adicionales para la aplicación del principio de interés superior del niño. Los niños migrantes se enfrentan a riesgos de separación familiar, violencia, explotación y falta de acceso a servicios básicos. En este sentido, la reforma al artículo 11 del CONA, busca asegurar que las decisiones judiciales y administrativas prioricen siempre el bienestar del niño, y que las instituciones públicas y privadas apliquen este principio con un enfoque integral y efecto.En este sentido, la reforma del artículo 11 del Código Orgánico de la Niñez y Adolescencia busca mejorar las normas procesales, protección y eficacia en el ámbito migratorio, garantizando que el principio de interés superior del niño sea el eje central de toda actuación del Estado ecuatoriano en relación con los menores en situaciones de migración.

Since 1995, research on liver tumors has been driven by groups such as the International Working Party (IWP) and the International Consensus Group for Hepatocellular Neoplasia (ICHN). These groups classified liver nodules into regenerative lesions, such as focal nodular hyperplasia, and dysplastic or neoplastic lesions, such as adenomas and hepatocellular carcinomas. Hepatocellular adenomas occur more in young women, often linked to the use of combined oral contraceptives, whereas hepatic hemangiomas and focal nodular hyperplasia usually remain benign but may require follow-up if they increase in size. The diagnosis of liver tumors is made mainly by imaging tests, and biopsy is used to evaluate the histological type. Treatment ranges from conservative to surgical, depending on size, symptoms, and malignant potential. In asymptomatic incidental findings, management is usually conservative. However, large, symptomatic, or malignant tumors require surgical intervention, and may include resection or chemotherapy in advanced cases. Little is said in the literature about uncertain histopathological behaviors, a fact that this research seeks to elucidate and help the scientific community.

INTRODUCTION: The teaching initiation program (PID) is an opportunity offered by the faculty to students who, when starting with teaching activities, have systematic access to new pedagogical practices. This incentive aims to familiarize the student with the daily life of the profession, as well as to provide experiences and help them choose their specialty. In addition, the student, when practicing such activities, has the benefit of a teaching-learning tool that corroborates the obtaining and fixation of contents, ensuring patient safety and reducing morbidity and mortality related to iatrogenesis. From the simulation, the experience of an event just like the real one is guaranteed, in a safe environment. In addition, access to the simulation environment enables the student to develop some soft-skills such as: improving leadership attitudes, decision-making and teamwork.
Exploring Gut Phages as a Defense Mechanism Against Drug-Resistant Bacterial Infections
Authors: Islam Md. Sharifull
Published: November 2024

The human gut microbiota is a complex and dynamic ecosystem consisting of various microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa, that contribute to overall health. Among these, bacteriophages (phages) are viruses that specifically target and infect bacteria, playing a critical role in regulating microbial balance within the gut. In recent years, the rise of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections has become a major global health challenge, largely attributed to the overuse and misuse of antibiotics. As a result, there has been growing interest in phages as a promising alternative to conventional antibiotics, particularly in combating drug-resistant infections. Phages offer several advantages, including their ability to selectively target specific bacteria, their rapid replication in the presence of host bacteria, and their potential to minimize disruption to the beneficial gut microbiota. Furthermore, phages may serve as a natural mechanism to restore microbial equilibrium in the gut, providing a novel strategy for treating infections that are difficult to manage with antibiotics. This manuscript examines recent research on gut phages, exploring their potential therapeutic applications, the mechanisms behind their bactericidal action, and their broader implications for human health, particularly in the context of rising antimicrobial resistance.

Low-Cost Digital Tools for Endovascular Aortic Aneurysm Repair Sizing and Planning
Authors: Carlos Gomez-Rodriguez Juan
Published: November 2024

Preoperative planning and appropriate device selection have been shown to significantly reduce the rate of type 1 endoleak and secondary re-intervention rates. Precise anatomical measurement for endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) planning and stent graft selection is critical to obtain favorable outcomes when there is a lack of 3D workstations, specialized software, or advanced image techniques like 3D fusion digital subtraction angiography (FDSA) and intravascular ultrasonography (IVUS). This chapter describes available methods to improve the sizing and planning technique using open-source and low-cost universally available digital tools that can be used to plan TEVAR, F/BEVAR, infrarenal EVAR, and covered endovascular reconstruction of the aortic bifurcation (CERAB) cases. These designing tools can help teams overcome technical limitations due to the lack of FDSA, IVUS, costly imaging workstations, or advanced vascular software, a typical scenario in many countries. Using the described digital toolkit to size, measure, and plan graft selection and procedure execution in complex aorta endovascular repair offers multiple advantages, such as quick availability, low costs, knowledge of patient anatomy, 3D modeling, and printing. 3D modeling can help the accuracy of fenestrations in back-table physician-modified cases, especially in urgent cases with complex anatomy. Vector design software has advantages such as layers, transparencies, and node-based tracing to enhance the process and improve visualization. This produces high-quality images with a 1:1 proportion that can be used in the OR and easily distributed to team members involved with patient care. This might prove most beneficial in developing countries where advanced imaging hardware and software are scarce and cost-prohibitive.

Perspective Chapter: Multimodal Communicative Behaviours in Shy Children in Assessment Situations and Social Evaluative Contexts
Authors: E. Viertel Franziska , F. Tolksdorf Nils
Published: November 2024

Shy children are characterised by reserved communicative behaviour, especially in novel situations or when interacting with unfamiliar interlocutors. Many of the contextual elicitors that trigger typical patterns of shyness reactions in children, such as gaze aversion, a more distant approach, or general hesitation, may be present in typical laboratory settings or in standardised testing situations, for example, language assessment tests. In our chapter, we review recent studies that operationalise shy children’s communicative behaviour at verbal and nonverbal levels with different social partners, such as humans or social robots, as interaction partners, providing practitioners with a sound overview of communicative signals that are challenging to capture and measure in practical settings. From this, we derive critical implications for the design of testing situations for children that allow them to unfold their communicative potential and demonstrate their linguistic competence, taking into account their individual temperamental characteristics.

Employing a qualitative approach, the research analyzes PSTs’ experiences during this week, focusing on learning gains, perceived personalization aspects, and professional identity development. Findings reveal that personalization elements were generally viewed favorably and contributed to a positive learning environment. Notably, PSTs’ professional identities strengthened with innovative tendencies, with sub-identities emerging as pedagogical/didactic experts, disciplinary experts, and inclusive educators. The study’s findings hold implications for both teacher training program enhancement and future academic campus design. At the micro level, the results can inform decisions on incorporating personalized, innovative learning experiences. At the macro level, they suggest characteristics needed in future academic campuses, where entrepreneurial and innovative features are integrated into the personalization processes for PSTs, emphasizing choice, customization, and professional meaning-making.
Patch Clamping in Combination with Fluorescence Is a Reliable Technique for Studying Pore-Forming Ion Channels
Authors: Pegas Teixeira Guilherme , Rocha Leandro , Xavier Faria Robson
Published: November 2024

Ion channels play essential roles in the functional balance of cells, whether in the context of electrical balance or in the activation of signaling pathways for specific processes. Pore formation is a notable feature of several channels, such as P2X7R, TRPV1, TRPA1, connexins, pannexin−1, and Maxi-anion, which significantly increase the permeability of the plasma membrane, allowing high ionic conductance and molecular weights of up to 900–1000 Da. Exploring the biophysical and physicochemical properties of these receptors is an important way to better understand their physiological and pathological functions. To this end, the patch clamp electrophysiology technique and methods using cationic and anionic fluorescent dyes are used to study these channels, making it possible to estimate and quantify pore size, ionic conductance, and selectivity. Therefore, in this work, we address different pore-forming channels through electrophysiological and fluorescence investigations of the physical and chemical properties of these large conductance channels.

Published: November 2024

Introduction: Hyperkalemia, a potentially life-threatening electrolyte disturbance, is commonly encountered in the Emergency Department (ED). However, the frequency of factitious hyperkalemia, an artiﬁcially elevated potassium level in hyperkalemic ED patients, is unknown. This study aims to detect the rate of factitious hyperkalemia among patients with a potassium concentration of ≥5.0 mmol/l in an all-comer ED population. Methods: This retrospective, monocentric chart review analyzed data of 2,440 ED patients who presented with a potassium concentration of ≥5.0 mmol/L in their initial whole blood or plasma sample, who also underwent a repeat potassium measurement on the same day. Two groups were established based on potassium levels in the initial and repeat blood tests: 1) True hyperkalemia, characterized by consistently elevated potassium levels in both the initial and repeat samples; and 2) Factitious hyperkalemia, deﬁned by an elevated initial potassium level while the repeat blood test showed a normal potassium level. A subset of factitious hyperkalemia was spurious hyperkalemia. In spurious hyperkalemia, the initial blood sample showed an elevated potassium level with evidence of hemolysis, but a repeat test revealed a normal potassium level without evidence of hemolysis. Results: Of the 2,440 patients, 1,576 (65%) had true hyperkalemia and 864 (35%) factitious hyperkalemia. Among the 864 patients with factitious hyperkalemia, 597 (69%) displayed hemolysis in their initial blood sample, indicating spurious hyperkalemia due to in-vitro hemolysis. Conclusion: These data show that about one third of all hyperkalemic blood samples drawn in the ED were due to factitious hyperkalemia. The leading cause of factitious hyperkalemia was spurious hyperkalemia due to in-vitro hemolysis.

Published: November 2024

Background: Modified rapid sequence intubation (RSI) is crucial in emergency surgery, particularly for patients with a full stomach, as it allows for the administration of general anesthesia (GA). Objectives: This work aimed to evaluate mivacurium effectiveness and optimal dose in modified RSI. Methods: This randomized double-blind study involved 100 patients, aged between 20 - 60 years, of both sexes, with the American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification of I - III, who were undergoing emergency surgery under GA. Patients were randomized into two equal groups and received mivacurium in a dose of 0.3 mg/kg in group M1 or 0.4 mg/kg in group muscarinic-2 (M2). Results: Intubating conditions were significantly better in group M2 than in group M1. The onset of adequate muscle relaxation was significantly earlier in group M2 than in group M1 (P < 0.001). At the third minute, mean arterial blood pressure recordings were significantly lower in group M2 (P = 0.04) than in group M1. The recovery time was significantly longer in group M2 than in group M1 (P < 0.001). Conclusions: Mivacurium in a 0.4 mg/kg dose resulted in more favorable intubating conditions during RSI and a more profound, earlier onset of muscle relaxation, but with a longer recovery time compared to the 0.3 mg/kg dose.

Authors: Jandaghi Fariba , Maleki Mohammad Reza , Shakerian Sareh
Published: November 2024

Background: The present study aimed to determine and compare the weight gain patterns of Iranian and Afghan pregnant women and investigate their relationship with neonatal anthropometric features. Methods: In this descriptive-analytical study, the health profiles of randomly selected Iranian and Afghan pregnant women referred to health centers in Semnan city, Iran, were reviewed. Data were collected following the guidelines recommended by the Institute of Medicine (IOM). Neonatal anthropometric measures were evaluated based on the reference values issued by the Iranian Ministry of Health (MOH). A statistical significance level of P < 0.05 was considered. Results: The average age of Afghan mothers was 27.36 ± 5.46 years, while that of Iranian mothers was 29.13 ± 5.44 years. The average weight gain during pregnancy was slightly lower in Afghan mothers (OR = -0.88, 95% CI: 0.82 - 0.94). Although the average weight gain in both groups and the percentiles of neonatal anthropometric measures were within permissible limits, a regression model indicated that weight gain during pregnancy significantly affected neonatal birth weight only in Iranian mothers (β = -0.313, P ≤ 0.001). Logistic regression analysis revealed no significant difference in the impact of maternal weight gain on neonatal anthropometric measures between the Iranian and Afghan mothers. Conclusions: The findings of this study suggest that nationality (i.e., Iranian or Afghan) does not influence maternal weight gain or neonatal anthropometric measures. The establishment of guest houses and training programs, such as Behbakhsh initiatives for Afghan women, appears to have been effective in ensuring equitable access to health services for Afghan immigrants.

Published: November 2024

Background: Malaria, a parasitic disease caused by a single-celled parasite called Plasmodium, poses a significant global health burden, especially in tropical regions such as Africa. The impact of malaria on human health is well-documented; however, its effects on the male reproductive system and the impact of herbal extracts remain underexplored. Objectives: This study aims to investigate Azadirachta indica's toxicity and its antimalarial potency's influence on testicular function and expression of proliferating cells nuclear antigen (PCNA). Methods: The antimalarial activity of Azadirachta indica was determined using standard procedures. Thirty male mice were used and grouped into six. Group 1 (normal control), group 2 (P. berghei infected only - negative control), group 3 (Plasmodium berghei infected + lonart - standard drug), group 4 (P. berghei infected + 100 mg/kg BWT crude ethanol extract), group 5 (P. berghei infected + 200 mg/kg BWT crude ethanol extract), group 6 (P. berghei infected + 400 mg/kg BWT crude ethanol extract). Administration of A. indica leaf extract to infected mice for four consecutive days demonstrated promising results. Results: The extract significantly suppressed parasite multiplication, ameliorated testicular damage, and improved sperm quality. The non-toxic extract also reduced oxidative stress in the testes, suggesting its potential effectiveness as phytotherapy against malaria-induced male reproductive impairments. Conclusions: The beneficial effects of A. indica emphasize its potential as a natural remedy for malaria-induced reproductive complications, offering a new avenue for therapeutic intervention in malaria-endemic regions. This study contributes to our knowledge of the intricate relationship between malaria and male reproductive health and provides valuable insights for future research and clinical applications.

Authors: Mohammed Dr. Zhehat Safar
Published: November 2024

The aim of this thesis is to investigate the impact of transformational, transactional, and laissez-faire (Full Range Leadership Theory) and authentic leadership styles on corporate social responsibility (CSR) and organizational culture as a mediator variable in the relationships between them. Data were collected from 254 respondents in 12 investment corporations in 4 industries (oil and gas, construction, telecommunications, and foods) in Erbil-Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Both the MLQ and ALQ scales were used, and the statistical appropriateness of the EFA was examined for testing the theoretical model and proving the reliability of the study constructs. Multiple and simple linear regression analysis with ANOVA analysis of variance techniques was applied to examine the study hypotheses and verify the relationships among leadership styles, CSR, and organizational culture. The study's findings revealed that most of the behaviors of transformational and authentic leadership have a positive effect on the dimensions of CSR as well as the dimensions of organizational culture.  Also, organizational culture dimensions showed a positive effect on the dimensions of CSR. While transactional leadership results showed most dimensions had a negative effect on the dimensions of CSR and a positive effect on the dimensions of organizational culture, laissez-faire results indicated a negative effect on all dimensions of CSR and a negative effect on all dimensions of organizational culture. The results of mediation indicated a partial mediation impact of organizational culture in the relationship between transformational and authentic leadership styles and CSR. Also, it was revealed that organizational culture had a full mediation in the relationship between transactional leadership, laissez-faire, and CSR. Lastly, the study concluded by offering several implications and recommendations for concerned parties and future research.
REFORMA TRABALHISTA E BACKLASH: UMA ANÁLISE SOB A PERSPECTIVA DO CONSTITUCIONALISMO DEMOCRÁTICO
Authors: Marques Filho Lourival Barao
Published: November 2024

O artigo busca responder o seguinte problema: a reforma trabalhista pode ser classificada como backlash à forma de atuação da Justiça do Trabalho? Por intermédio de metodologia dedutiva, adota-se a construção doutrinária elaborada por Post e Siegel no marco do constitucionalismo democrático como chave teórica para responder a esta indagação. O resultado da pesquisa afastou a hipótese de ocorrência de backlash, pois não houve movimentos populares, grupos de interesse, organizações sociais ou partidos políticos que tivessem como objetivo destruir ou reduzir o direito do trabalho e a Justiça do Trabalho. O artigo argumenta que a reforma trabalhista deve ser classificada como uma reação legislativa à Justiça e ao direito do trabalho, a fim de enfraquecê-los e reduzir o papel que historicamente desempenharam.

Authors: Jannah Luthfiyani Nurul , Setiawan Asep , Usni Usni , Affianty Debbie
Published: November 2024

The phenomenon of Chinese mail-order brides in Indonesia gained prominence in the 1980s and resurfaced in 2017, particularly affecting regions like West Kalimantan. This research aims to examine Indonesia’s diplomatic strategies in addressing Chinese mail-order brides as human trafficking cases (TPPO) from 2018 to 2021, focusing on engagements between the Indonesian Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Chinese Government. Theoretical frameworks of diplomacy, humanitarian diplomacy, and human security provide the analytical lens for this study. The study employs a qualitative research method, leveraging a comprehensive literature review of official documents, academic sources, and credible news articles. The research findings reveal that poverty, limited education, parental influence, and scarce employment opportunities contribute to the prevalence of mail-order brides. Additionally, cultural perceptions and aspirations for an improved life exacerbate the issue. The Indonesian government, through bilateral diplomacy, has made significant efforts, such as negotiating victim repatriation and enhancing law enforcement collaborations with China. Notable successes include framing mail-order bride cases as TPPO, which facilitated victim repatriation. NGOs like the Indonesian Migrant Workers' Union (SBMI) have played essential roles in advocacy and preventive measures. Despite these efforts, challenges remain, such as differing cultural perspectives between Indonesia and China and regulatory inconsistencies. Governmental complicity and inadequate documentation have further complicated diplomatic resolutions. The research highlights that Indonesia’s strategic reframing of mail-order bride cases as human trafficking crimes enhances international cooperation and offers policy innovation for addressing human rights violations.

Sistem perpipaan telah terbukti sangat efektif dan efisien dalam mengalirkan produk minyak dan gas dalam industri minyak dan gas bumi, terutama untuk jarak yang jauh melalui laut dan darat, dengan metode distribusi utamanya adalah sistem perpipaan. Untuk mengalirkan produk minyak dan gas, sis- tem perpipaan dianggap lebih efisien dan efektif dalam hal kapasitas dan jarak tempuh. Di PT. XYZ, proses distribusi minyak mentah menggunakan infrastruktur jalur pipa. Namun, bahaya dan risiko yang mungkin terjadi, seperti kebocoran, tumpahan, dan ledakan dapat mengakibatkan kerugian besar jika terjadi kegagalan pada jalur pipa. Oleh karena itu, pentingnya identifikasi risiko pada jaringan pipa produk menjadi sangat signifikan. Untuk mengurangi risiko kerusakan pada pipa penyaluran, metode Failure Mode Effect Analysis (FMEA) digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi risiko, dan penentuan strategi perbaikan dengan metode Root Cause Analysis (RCA). Berdasarkan metode FMEA nilai bobot RPN tertinggi sebesar 367,03 yaitu risiko tekanan berlebih pada pipa, peringkat kedua yaitu risiko korosi pada pipa dengan nilai RPN sebesar 295,3, dan peringkat ketiga yaitu risiko kegagalan sistem pengawasan dan pemeliharaan. Adapun usulan perbaikan pada risiko tekanan berlebih pada pipa yaitu penambahan katup Pelepas tekanan (pressure relief valve) yang berguna membuang tekanan berlebih pada pipa, risiko korosi pada pipa yaitu penggunaan inhibitor korosi yang berguna menetralkan asam, dan pelapisan epoksi, risiko kegagalan sistem pengawasan dan pemeliharaan yaitu pelatihan dan pen- ingkatan kompetensi untuk tim inspeksi dan pemeliharaan.

Pengaruh Kualitas Dan Fasilitas Pelayanan Terhadap Loyalitas Pasien Pengguna BPJS Dengan Kepuasan Pasien Sebagai Variabel Intervening
Authors: Pasaribu Monica Widya
Published: November 2024

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh kualitas pelayanan dan fasilitas kesehatan terhadap kepuasan dan loyalitas pasien pengguna BPJS di Rumah Sakit Umum Daerah (RSUD) Pulang Pisau. Metode yang digunakan adalah penelitian asosiatif kausal dengan analisis Partial Least Square (PLS) pada 80 responden. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kualitas pelayanan dan fasilitas kesehatan secara signifikan berpengaruh positif terhadap kepuasan pasien, yang pada gilirannya memengaruhi loyalitas pasien. Namun, kepuasan pasien hanya mampu memediasi pengaruh fasilitas kesehatan terhadap loyalitas pasien, sementara hubungan antara kualitas pelayanan dan loyalitas tidak dimediasi oleh kepuasan pasien. Penelitian ini juga menemukan bahwa meskipun kualitas pelayanan dan fasilitas kesehatan cukup baik, masih terdapat ketidakpuasan yang perlu ditangani. Oleh karena itu, direkomendasikan agar RSUD Pulang Pisau meningkatkan kualitas pelayanan, seperti komunikasi petugas medis yang lebih ramah dan penanganan pasien yang lebih cepat, serta memperbaiki fasilitas kesehatan untuk meningkatkan kepuasan dan loyalitas pasien.

The phenomenon of passport ownership with false data by Indonesian Migrant Workers who are working abroad is a problem that is difficult to eliminate, because there are still many prospective workers who think that the bureaucracy of making passports is difficult. The purpose of this study is to identify the challenges and countermeasures against passport data falsification in Indonesian Migrant Workers, through a review of the Circular Letter of the Director General of Immigration of the Republic of Indonesia Number: IMI-GR.01.01-0252 Year 2023. This research uses a qualitative secondary research approach that allows a researcher to compare other researchers' perspectives on the same case, in order to provide additional understanding. The research findings show that there are still many Indonesian Migrant Workers who are not aware of the dangers that may arise from using passports with fake identities, from being exposed to legal problems, losing their employment rights, to the threat of not being recognized for their citizenship status. In the conclusion, this research found that although the Directorate General of Immigration tries to use more persuasive regulations, these efforts also need to be accompanied by the application of immigration control functions as a form of prevention in preventing the increase of non-procedural Indonesian Migrant Workers.
