Encouraging early sexual initiation, misinformation about sexual health and inexperience to deal with feelings in affective relationships make adolescents more vulnerable to the acquisition of Sexually Transmitted Infections. Itis relevant to provide correct information about sexuality in order to ensure safe and satisfactory practices among adolescents. This study aims to analyze the knowledge and behavior of school adolescents about sexual health. It was observed that 08 articles comprised the final sample of the study. There are still gaps related to the sex education methods used by schools, which use a biological vision to provide guidance to adolescents, impacting the low level of knowledge and the adoption of risky practices and behaviors for acquiring Sexually Transmitted Infections and for teenage pregnancy.

Autonomía y nacionalismos en el movimiento mapuche del siglo XXI
Authors: Infante Benjamín
Published: November 2022

Esta investigación busca actualizar el debate respecto de la cuestión etnonacional, a partir del análisis del discurso que se articula en torno a la emergencia del partido mapuche Wallmapuwen que tuvo vigencia desde 2006 a 2017. Tomando en cuenta la crítica de Frantz Fanon al concepto de “nación”, la idea de “nación boliviana”, presentada por Fausto Reinaga, y el curso de subjetivación hacia lo universal que propone Aimé Césaire, actualizamos la discusión etnonacional para el contexto constituyente chileno (2022). Concluimos que lo que distingue a una articulación discursiva etnonacional transformadora en el proceso constituyente reside en una comprensión política de la cultura como formativa de sujetos que combaten por la historia, y, por lo tanto, maleable según las exigencias de dicha disputa.
ANALYSIS OF INSTITUTIONAL RISKS OF SUSTAINABLE SEA DEVELOPMENT IN UKRAINE
Authors: Andryeyeva Natalya , Hotsuliak Volodymyr
Published: November 2022

The research objective is to define institutional risks in the process of formation of the institutional environment of the maritime economy sphere within the context of the implementation of international sustainable development policy into Ukrainian economy. The article considers the risks and threats of the emergence of institutional risks and “traps” in the economy, their influence on maintaining sustainable development of the maritime economic sphere in Ukraine. The article analyses peculiarities and causes of the crisis situations of 2013– 2017 in the Ukrainian maritime economy, discovers the existing structural imbalance of institutional environment and offers a set of measures for the integration of national objects of the maritime economy into European maritime clusters. Methodology. The research defines the essence and interrelation of institutional risks and institutional “traps” in the modern institutional theory. It was established that institutional “traps” in the maritime economy emerge due to management misjudgements in relation to new regulations suggested by policymakers and inefficient institutions without taking into account the existing economic and environmental risks for economic activities at the microeconomic level. That is to say when the state ignores the main institutional threats: resilience of shadow arrangements; a procedural overload of the management system; immaturity of the regulatory-legislative sphere, resource-intensiveness of organisations and their interrelations. Practical implications. The conducted research on the existing institutional risks (traps) of the Ukrainian maritime economy allowed discovering the level of structural deformations of the institutional environment in accordance with sustainable development methodology, to offer an action plan for improving the institutional environment that would allow removing the existing social, economic and environmental risks. Value/originality. The article demonstrates that though institutional risks are of common nature for various countries and scopes of activity, they do not work in the same way and have different symptoms of emergence in each separate sphere, in particular, in maritime economy. Thus, the recommendations for their prevention and overcoming substantially differ from each other. The research offers a set of priority tasks for overcoming the crisis phenomena in the sphere of the maritime economy of the Ukrainian Black-Sea region related to the transition of Ukrainian business structures to sustainable development. The authors have determined that institutional risks that influence various segments of economic activities are complex in nature. In this context, determination of interrelations between institutional risks and other types of risks, in particular, economic and environmental ones, becomes especially important.

Published: November 2022

Money is what allows individuals to face uncertainty, by controlling and debasing money, governments of the world shift the time preference of individuals to somewhere closer to the present time. This currency inflation disincentivizes saving with societal consequences that go much beyond economics. By giving back to individuals the possibility of saving, Bitcoin emulates what gold did for a number of centuries and provides a much-needed solution to the interference of governments in the money market. The Bitcoin standard will provide for much higher levels of social development, because it will incentivize and facilitate savings as well as the exercise of proper economic calculation.

Authors: DEMİR Uğur , KAMIŞ KOCABIÇAK Zeliha
Published: November 2022

This study presents a series of analyzes considering the traction and steering demands of an autonomous electric vehicle (AEV) as a shuttle. The considered analyzes in here are dealt with as driving cycle (DC) and driving scenarios (DS) to assess the traction and steering performance of the AEV. The aim of this study is to evaluate the issues such as over engineering for AEV traction and steering motor requirements on a certain route by comparatively analyzing traditional and dynamic calculation under the DC and DS. Therefore, DC and DS in the lit-erature are evaluated in terms of different applications, optimization techniques, generation algorithm, parametric characterization, e-motor type etc. Afterwards, NEDC, US06, WLTC, Double Lane Change (DLC), Constant Radius (CR) and Slowly Increase Steer (SIS) are determined. Then, they are arranged according to the vehicle-specific limits on an electric golf car. The modified DCs and DSs are run on the dynamic model of the vehicle. In the performed analysis, the parame-ters such as reference trajectory tracking, yaw angle, tractive and steering forces, lateral and longitudinal displacement-acceleration, steering and traction motor power–speed-torque are investigated. And the obtained results are evaluated by comparing the traditional calculation results.
Tensile Strength of Adhesively Bonded and Hybrid (Bonded/Riveted) Dissimilar Single-Lap Joints
Authors: CETİN Erhan
Published: November 2022

Glass fiber-reinforced composites are commonly employed as structural materials in many fields. In addition, glass fiber-reinforced composites are frequently used with metals, particularly in the automotive and aerospace industry. In this context, the tensile strengths of simple and hybrid single-lap joints having similar (i.e., aluminum/aluminum and composite/composite) and dissimilar (i.e., aluminum/composite) plates were investigated experimentally in this study. At this point, 6061 aluminum alloy and E-glass/epoxy composite plates were used as the adherends and Araldite 2014-1 was used as the adhesive. The composite adherends produced using the vacuum infusion technique consist of E-glass/epoxy laminates with [0°/90°/+45°/−45°]6 stacking sequence. Two different types of joints (i.e., adhesively bonded and bonded/riveted) were employed for similar and dissimilar joints. In addition, both 3-rivet and 4-rivet joints were used in bonded/riveted joints. The results revealed that the strength of the joints could be considerably increased with the addition of rivets to the adhesively bonded joints. In particular, the results showed that the strength value of the bonded/4-riveted joint is 5.7 times higher than the adhesively bonded joints.
Community Engagement as an Ubuntu Transformative Undertaking for Higher Education Institutions
Authors: Nicolaides Angelo , Candice Austin Adelaine
Published: November 2022

Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) stand at the junction of increasing social and economic challenges in a pandemic era. The focus of this study is to substantiate to an extent what CE implies and what HEIs can and should do. A probing question is whether HEIs can effectively respond to needs identified within the communities in which they operate? The purpose is to interrogate how CE by HEIs can shape and be shaped by its role-players. A qualitative literature study and an interpretivistic paradigm were utilised in this study to deliberate upon the debate on Community Engagement (CE) in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in South Africa. It is a global truth that a university has an important role to play in responding to a range of societal needs. In South African universities, this is also the case, but the notion and practice of community engagement by Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in general, is a persistent transformational requirement. What is meant by the term Community Engagement (CE) may differ from institution to institution but broadly speaking it relates to how an institution interacts with a community in which it operates in ways that result in a win-win situation for all parties involved and positively influence the quality of life within society in general. Viewed from a South African Higher Education milieu, it is clear that CE is an instrument through which transformation is supported through social responsiveness and it is thus in essence far more than mere community service or outreach as in most universities abroad. Having CE engaged universities is vital for a strong social and economic South Africa. CEs role is then to promote skills and knowledge to those alienated during the apartheid era. For a higher education institution, the benefits accrued would most likely be in inter alia joint projects, research initiatives and teaching opportunities to help redress past evils. Although community engagement often brings with it a range of challenges, it remains a fundamental role required of HEIs in South Africa and beyond. This article thus presents a brief overview on inter-alia, the direction and theoretical development of CE practices and suggests some possible aspects to consider applying to CE. A desktop literature review methodology and an interpretivistic paradigm were used in this brief study. Keywords: community engagement, higher education, South Africa, transformation, ethical duty
Resistencias al lenguaje inclusivo: entre la variación y la normativa
Authors: Funes María Soledad , Romero María Cecilia
Published: November 2022

A partir de la selección de un corpus de la web que parte principalmente de comentarios y posturas sobre el uso del lenguaje inclusivo en grupos públicos de redes sociales, se seleccionan los argumentos utilizados por quienes están en contra del uso de dichas formas y de quienes están a favor, a fin de ser analizados de acuerdo con dos ejes de análisis respecto de la noción de signo lingüístico y de la correspondencia género y sexo en los morfemas del español. Los resultados del análisis intentan reflejar la importancia de un análisis gramatical con un enfoque discursivo para entender el uso del lenguaje inclusivo. El trabajo se enmarca en el modelo gramatical del Enfoque Cognitivo Prototípico (Lakoff, 1987; Langacker, 1987, 1991, 2000; Hopper, 1988; Geeraerts y Cuyckens, 2007), que sostiene que la Gramática de una lengua es un sistema de tendencias que refleja la concepción del mundo de una sociedad.
Lengua, género y poder. Una aproximación lingüística integral
Authors: Paredes Ma. del Refugio Pérez , Campaña Rojas Tania María
Published: November 2022

En este trabajo pretendemos discutir la propuesta del lenguaje incluyente desde una perspectiva lingüística que considere la dimensión política de la lengua, esto es, cómo la lengua es un reflejo de las tensiones sociopolíticas que viven las comunidades que la hablan y, por lo tanto, expresa, difunde y conserva ideologías, en este caso, la desigualdad basada en la división binaria del sistema sexo-género. Así también abordamos el fenómeno del lenguaje incluyente como un cambio lingüístico que no tiene que ser “natural” (si es que se puede hablar de naturalidad), sino que proviene de factores extrasistemáticos, como un cambio social que incide en la planeación lingüística en aras de respetar la diversidad identitaria.
Sobre la dictadura. Carl Schmitt y el artículo 48 de la Constitución de Weimar
Authors: Vendramin Bruno
Published: November 2022

El artículo analiza la interpretación de Carl Schmitt sobre el artículo 48 de la Constitución de Weimar a la luz de las categorías de dictadura y estado de excepción. En este marco, se sostiene que Schmitt no fue un enemigo de la república de Weimar. Para desarrollar esto, se reconstruye cómo Schmitt identifica en el artículo 48 la herramienta idónea para enfrentar las crisis que amenazan a la república. En su visión, el artículo contiene una dictadura en cabeza del presidente destinada a defender la Constitución. Pero el cambio de matriz de la crisis de Weimar hacia 1929 lo lleva a modificar las implicancias concretas de esto. Así, entre 1921 y 1928, Schmitt defiende que el presidente puede adoptar todas las medidas necesarias para mantener el orden público –incluso violar determinadas cláusulas constitucionales– y suspender los derechos fundamentales enumerados en el artículo. Luego, entre 1929 y 1933, Schmitt amplía la noción de orden público para integrar la esfera de la economía. Apelando a la noción de praxis constitucional, Schmitt justifica el estado de emergencia económico y la facultad del presidente de dictar decretos con fuerza de ley. A su juicio, ambas cuestiones se encuadran dentro de los límites del artículo 48.

Proses berpikir konseptual dalam memecahkan masalah sangat dipengaruhi oleh tipe kepribadian siswa. Kesalahan yang dilakukan oleh siswa pasti sangat beragam. Hal tersebut menyebabkan perbedaan dalam proses berpikirnya. Maka dari itu, perlu diketahui bagaimana proses berpikir konseptual siswa dengan berbagai tipe kepribadian dalam penyelesaian masalah bangun ruang sisi datar. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan data metode tes dan metode wawancara. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa dalam menyatakan ulang sebuah konsep siswa dengan tipe kepribadian extrovert cenderung tidak menuliskan informasi yang didapat di lembar jawaban, sedangkan siswa dengan tipe kepribadian introvert menuliskan secara terstruktur pada lembar jawaban. Dalam memilih prosedur pemecahan masalah, siswa extrovert lebih suka mengerjakan soal secara langsung tanpa menganalisis terlebih dahulu, berbeda dengan siswa introvert yang menganalisis terlebih dahulu, siswa extrovert cenderung memiliki alternatif pemecahan masalah lebih sedikit daripada siswa tipe kepribadian introvert. Selain itu, dalam penerapan konsep dan algoritma siswa introvert menuliskan kembali kesimpulan dari permasalahan pada lembar jawaban, sedangkan siswa tipe kepribadian extrovert tidak.
Heavy Metals, Halogenated Hydrocarbons, Phthalates, Glyphosate, Cordycepin, Alcohol, Drugs, and Herbs, Assessed for Liver Injury and Mechanistic Steps
Authors: Teschke Rolf , Xuan Tran Dang
Published: November 2022

Aluminum, arsenic, cadmium, chromium, cobalt, copper, iron, lead, mercury, nickel, thallium, titanium, zinc, carbon tetrachloride, phthalates, glyphosate, alcohol, drugs, and herbs are under discussion having the potential to injure the human liver, but allocation of the injury to the hepatotoxicant as exact cause is difficult for physicians and requires basic clinical knowledge of toxicology details. Liver injury occurs at a variable extent depending on the dose, mostly reproducible in animal models that allow studies on molecular steps leading to the hepatocellular injury. These exogenous hepatotoxins may cause an overproduction of reactive oxidative species (ROS), which are generated during microsomal or mitochondrial oxidative stress from incomplete oxygen split and trigger the injury if protective antioxidant capacities are reduced. Primary subcelluar target organelles involved are liver mitochondria through lipid peroxidation of membrane structures and the action of free radicals such as singlet radical 1O2, superoxide radical HO•2, hydrogen peroxide H2O2, hydroxyl radical HO•, alkoxyl radical RO•, and peroxyl radical ROO•. They attempt covalent binding to macromolecular structural proteins. As opposed to inorganic chemicals, liver injury due to chemicals with an organic structure proceedes via the hepatic microsomal cytochrome P450 with its different isoforms. In sum, many exogenous chemicals may have the potential of liver injury triggerd by overproduced ROS leading primarily to impairment of mitochondial functions in the course of structural mitochondial membrane dearrangement. As clinical data were often incomplete, future clinical prototols should focus on meeting liver injury criteria, exclusion of alternative causes, a robust causality evaluation management, and obtaining liver histology if clinically indicated and of benefit for the patient.
Unde venisti PGRMC? Grand-Scale Biology from Early Eukaryotes and Eumetazoan Animal Origins
Authors: Cahill Michael A.
Published: November 2022

The title usage of Unde venisti ‘from where have you come’ is from a now dead language (Latin) that foundationally influenced modern English (not the major influence, but an essential formative one). This is an apt analogy for how both the ancient eukaryotic and eumetazoan functions of PGRMC proteins (PGRMC1 and PGRMC2 in mammals) probably influence modern human biology: via a formative trajectory from an evolutionarily foundational fulcrum. There is an arguable probability, although not a certainty, that PGRMC-like proteins were involved in eukaryogenesis. If so, then the proto-eukaryotic ancestral protein is modelled as having initiated the oxygen-induced and CYP450 (Cytochrome P450)-mediated synthesis of sterols in the endoplasmic reticulum to regulate proto-mitochondrial activity and heme homeostasis, as well as having enabled sterol transport between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria membranes involving the actin cytoskeleton, transport of heme from mitochondria, and possibly the regulation/origins of mitosis/meiosis. Later, during animal evolution, the last eumetazoan common ancestor (LEUMCA) acquired PGRMC phosphorylated tyrosines coincidentally with the gastrulation organizer, Netrin/deleted in colorectal carcinoma (DCC) signaling, muscle fibers, synapsed neurons, and neural recovery via a sleep-like process. Modern PGRMC proteins regulate multiple functions, including CYP450-mediated steroidogenesis, membrane trafficking, heme homeostasis, glycolysis/Warburg effect, fatty acid metabolism, mitochondrial regulation, and genomic CpG epigenetic regulation of gene expression. The latter imposes the system of differentiation status-sensitive cell-type specific proteomic complements in multi-tissued descendants of the LEUMCA. This paper attempts to trace PGRMC functions through time, proposing that key functions were involved in early eukaryotes, and were later added upon in the LEUMCA. An accompanying paper considers the implications of this awareness for human health and disease.

Authors: Consiglio Arianna , Nuzziello Nicoletta , Liguori Maria
Published: November 2022

Background: In previous investigations of combined miRNAs/mRNAs expressions in neurodegenerative diseases like Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) we have targeted some interesting genes and molecular pathways that needed further confirmation. Methods: By nanofluidic qPCR analysis, we aimed to verify the expression of genes that resulted differentially expressed in the previous analyses. Data from MS patients — either the pediatric and the adult occurrence of the disease (adMS and pedMS, respectively) — was compared to age-matched healthy groups. As neurological controls we recruited a cohort of ALS subjects, considering published searches of possible genetic similarities between the two diseases. Results: The main results confirmed the involvement of most of the investigated genes in pedMS and adMS, like BACH2 and MICAL3. On the other hand, suggestive MS candidate genes like TNFSF13B showed an interesting trend possibly influenced by interfering factors, such as concomitant disease-modifying treatments; it is worth noting that TNFSF13B was one of the genes upregulated in ALS compared to age-matched adMS patients, together with the transcription factor TFDP1. Conclusions: Although with caution due to the small sample size, this study confirms the interest in transcriptomic analysis supported by integrated and educated bioinformatics evaluations, to shed further light in complex neurological diseases.

Entrepreneurship in Preschool Education: Turkish Preservice Teachers’ Entrepreneurship Features, Comparison with their Lecturers’ Views and Suggestions for Development
Authors: Kaya-Capocci Sila
Published: November 2022

Learning skills and developing competencies at early ages augment its benefits later in life, and therefore, can be effective in the long run. Starting from this point, the paper argues the need for and importance of enterprise education in preschool education. The paper aims to explore preservice preschool teachers’ entrepreneurship features and make suggestions for implementing enterprise education in teacher education programmes. “The Entrepreneurship for Teacher Candidates Scale” was employed with 184 preservice preschool teachers, followed by interviews with four of their lecturers. Descriptive statistics and two-way ANOVA was used to analyse the quantitative data, and thematic analysis was used for the qualitative data. Overall, the results showed that preservice preschool teachers’ perception of their level of entrepreneurship features was high, which was not agreed by lecturers except for self-confidence. The results of two-way ANOVA did not indicate any significant difference (p>.05) for any of the factors investigated (i.e., gender, year of study, taking entrepreneurship courses previously, and/or having an entrepreneur in the family). This means that participants had similar scores and have similar levels of entrepreneurship features. Having no impact of the year of study and entrepreneurship courses attended previously on participants’ entrepreneurial features may suggest the revision of preschool teacher education programmes and the content development targeting such features. Finally, practice-based, active, and collaborative teaching is suggested rather than theory-based teaching for enterprise education in preschool teacher education programmes. Teacher-academics meetings, seminars and workshops about enterprise education are suggested for professional development of preschool teachers.
Differential expression of PFN4 in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: November 2022

Neurodegenerative diseases that affect the motor neurons, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), have little treatment options and are generally rapidly fatal (1, 2). We harnessed the power of unbiased, whole transcriptome differential gene expression analysis, utilizing primary patient cells and tissues to discover genes whose expression defines ALS using published data (3, 4). We found significant differential expression of PFN4, encoding profilin family member 4, in the iPSC-derived primary motor neurons of patients with ALS. PFN4 was also differentially expressed in the skeletal muscle of patients with ALS. PFN4 transcript was present at significantly lower levels in iPSC-derived ALS patient motor neurons as compared to control motor neurons. These analyses will begin to define the transcriptional landscape of ALS.

TIMOTIUSAyah Timotius adalah seorang Yunani, tetapi ibunya seorang Yahudi. la bertobat pada usia kurang lebih lima belas tahun, ketika Rasul Paulus mengunjungi kota asalnya, Listra (Kis. 16:1-3; 1Tim. 1:2). Tujuh tahun kemudian ia ikut dalam pelayanan penginjilan Paulus dan terjalinlah hubungan persahabatan yang sangat erat antara Paulus yang saat itu sudah berumur kira-kira tujuh puluh tahun dengan rekannya yang lebih muda.Setelah pemenjaraan Paulus yang pertama, ia mengunjungi beberapa tempat antara lain Efesus, dan karena tidak dapat lama berada di sana ia meninggalkan Timotius untuk memikul pelayanan di sana. Ketika ditinggal sendirian Timotius mendapatkan ujian yang sangat berat, karena sebelumnya ia sangat bergantung kepada nasihat Paulus. Sifatnya agak pemalu dan peka. Paulus menulis surat kepadanya dari Korintus untuk mendorong dia dan memberikan beberapa nasihat.Ayat kunci kitab ini adalah 3:15. Paulus sangat ingin melihat anak rohaninya memenuhi tanggung jawabnya sebagai seorang pemimpin Kristen. Ia berkeinginan supaya dalam segala hal Timotius dapat memberi teladan kepada jemaat yang mengharapkan kepemimpinannya (4:12).
Determinants of Non-Performing Loans Between Islamic And Conventional Banks: A Systematic Literature Review
Authors: Almuraikhi Muhannad A
Published: November 2022

This article conducts a systematic literature review of 52 papers on the determinants of non-performing loans (NPL) published for 2006-2022 in peer-reviewed journals. This paper adds to the development of this emerging field of systematic review in non-medical field settings by mapping existing research to inform future research exploits. This study synthesizes NPL studies by applying the systematic review methodology. The data synthesis is done through first and second-level codes. The first level codes group studies according to bank-specific, borrower-specific and comparative (Islamic vs conventional bank types). The literature is conscientiously analyzed through 13 subcategories using an open coding process. The literature synthesis shows that borrower-specific factors that may determine NPL include borrower profile, internal factors, external factors, and social issues. Also, the bank-specific factors that may influence NPL growth include economic conditions, management competence, profit maximization, and information economics. The findings highlight that the way borrower profiles, banks-specific factors and macroeconomic factors interact to influence NPL still needs more understanding. Further, Islamic banks and conventional banks seem to behave similarly regarding many bank-specific and macroeconomic factors even though the profit and loss sharing contract used in Islamic banks was deemed to moderate NPL positively. But the borrower-specific factors' interaction with bank-specific and macroeconomic factors of Islamic banks clients remains unclear. This highlights an important research gap in understanding the behavior of Islamic bank borrowers towards NPL prediction.
