KADIN YÖNETİCİLERİN KARŞILAŞTIKLARI FIRSATLAR VE ENGELLER: NİTEL BİR ÇALIŞMA
Authors: KALAFATOĞLU Yaprak , TORUN Alev
Published: September 2022

Dünya genelinde kadınlar işgücüne katılım ve yönetici pozisyonunda temsil açısından erkeklerden daha dezavantajlı konumdadır. Nüfusunun yarısına ekonomik, sosyal ve siyasal hakları tam anlamıyla sunamayan toplumların nasıl gelişeceği şüphelidir. Pek çok ülkede olduğu gibi, Türkiye’de de kadın yöneticilerin sayısı erkeklere oranla daha azdır. Bu nedenle, kadınların yönetici olmalarını engelleyen unsurların tespit edilmesi ve bu engelleri ortadan kaldıracak politikaların oluşturulması önem taşımaktadır. Böylece yönetim kademesinde cinsiyet eşitliği sağlanabilir. Bu araştırmada, kolayda örneklem ile ulaşılan 22 kadın yöneticiye kariyer hikâyeleri ve yöneticiliğe giden süreçteki deneyimleri yarı yapılandırılmış mülakatlar aracılığıyla sorulmuştur. Bulgular betimsel analiz yöntemi ile yorumlanmıştır. Yönetici olmaya giden yolda katılımcıların özveriyle çalışmak ve kendini geliştirmeye önem vermek gibi benzer özellikleri vurguladığı görülmüştür. Ayrıca, üstlerden destek almak, kurumun sağladığı imkânlar gibi yönetici olmayı kolaylaştıran unsurlar olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Bununla birlikte, iş-aile çatışması, erkeklerden kaynaklanan baskılar gibi kadınlar için yönetici olmayı zorlaştırıcı çeşitli unsurlar da tespit edilmiştir. Katılımcıların işyerinde cinsiyet eşitliğine ilişkin farklı görüşlere sahip oldukları anlaşılmıştır. Bulgular, toplumsal cinsiyet çerçevesinde tartışılmıştır. Kadınların yönetici olma sürecini analiz eden nitel araştırmaların, yönetici olma yolunda karşılaşılan zorlukları ve kolaylıkları belirlemek açısından zengin bir veri kaynağı oluşturacağı düşünülmektedir. Bu tip araştırmaların kariyer hedefi olan genç kadınlara bir yol haritası sunması ve toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliği politikalarına katkıda bulunması umulmaktadır.
La línea de tiempo como herramienta de visualización y co-diseño de historias
Authors: San Cornelio Gemma , Roig Antoni , Foglia Efraín
Published: September 2022

En este artículo analizamos las posibilidades de la herramienta de línea de tiempo o timeline en la construcción de historias colectivas a través de procesos de co-diseño. La investigación en visualización y su dimensión narrativa da prioridad al rol de figuras expertas, quienes definen las experiencias. Sin embargo, no se presta tanta atención a alternativas basadas en la participación que permiten ampliar las voces en la construcción narrativa. A partir de una revisión crítica sobre visualización y líneas de tiempo proponemos una serie de criterios —modalidad, pluralidad, simultaneidad, no linealidad e inclusividad— como base de un modelo de análisis aplicado en dos acciones de investigación y co-diseño con comunidades. Los resultados muestran que el formato resulta relevante en procesos inclusivos de creación y discusión por su simplicidad y claridad, ya que favorece la adición de factores y puntos de vista alrededor de historias significativas para un colectivo.

Published: September 2022

Teniendo como punto de partida las falencias en el desarrollo de competencias básicas en los estudiantes en Colombia, se plantea una estrategia transmedia para el desarrollo de competencias en resolución colaborativa de problemas (RCP) soportada en los procesos de aprendizaje y gestión proyectual del pensamiento de diseño. A partir de la revisión de experiencias transmedia educativas en Europa y Colombia, la presente investigaciónpropone como objetivo el diseño de un modelo transmedial que propicie el desarrollo de competencias en RCP, caracterizando experiencias transmediales, identificando las competencias que se desarrollan en la segunda infancia y en la adolescencia, como base del aprendizaje a lo largo de la vida y reconociendo el proceso seguido por un estudiante para solucionar un problema en equipo. A nivel metodológico se analizan transversalmentetres marcos de referencia relacionados con la transmedialidad, desde el diseño, los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje y las narrativas, generando un análisis categorial secuencial que se mantiene como hilo conductor del proyecto. Como resultado se construye el Modelo para la Creación de Entornos Interactivos Transmedia para la Educación Synappsis, con aplicación en la Plataforma Transmedia Educativa en Salud Innmersa como validación, destacando el pensamiento de diseño como agente de transformación de los procesos formativos de la segunda infancia y la adolescencia. Como conclusión se encuentra la pertinencia de la aplicación de procesos de aprendizaje del diseño como detonantes del desarrollo de competencias en RCP.
De arriba hacia abajo: reflexiones sobre la regulación de las relaciones entre artesanos y diseñadores en México
Authors: Martínez González Mercedes , Ibarra Rojas Lucero , Pérez Ortiz Luis Alejandro , González Rodríguez Roberto
Published: September 2022

Aunque en la historia de México ha existido una fuerte tensión en la relación entre artesanos y diseñadores, hasta hace poco tiempo se hicieron visibles casos de explotación que han derivado, entre otras cosas, en la Ley Federal de Protección del Patrimonio Cultural de los Pueblos y Comunidades Indígenas y Afromexicanas. Si bien la legislación y visibilización del problema representan un avance hacia la construcción de relaciones más horizontales, todavíaqueda mucho por reflexionar y por entender sobre las aristas que lo conforman. Así, el objetivo de este artículo es atender a las siguientes preguntas: ¿cuál es el origen de la relación desigual entre artesanos y diseñadores en México?, ¿cómo se describe actualmente? y ¿qué aportaciones puede hacer esta ley al respecto? Para lo anterior, proponemos como metodología de este trabajo un necesario diálogo interdisciplinario entre el diseño, la antropologíay el derecho, enunciado en la exposición de dos casos en los que se muestran aspectos importantes de esta relación: uno en el pasado —descrito a través de investigación bibliográfica— y otro en el presente —al que sumamos testimonios obtenidos mediante trabajo de campo etnográfico—; uno involucra a una población indígena y el otro no; para luego vincularlos al análisis de las legislaciones mencionadas. A partir de este proceso, encontramos que la tensión entre artesanos y diseñadores se da desde que se profesionaliza la práctica del diseño en México. Y esto sucede mientras se intentan consolidar leyes y políticas públicas que buscan regular prácticas, que desde su origen se han planteado desiguales. Concluimos destacando algunas claves centrales para una relación más horizontal entre el sector del diseño y el  sector artesanal.
Enfoque de diseño: la respuesta de innovación social para el departamento del Cauca, Colombia
Authors: Moreno Delacruz Jhonatan Alexander , Rivera Lozada Isabel Cristina
Published: September 2022

Este artículo explora la posibilidad de establecer un enfoque de análisis de la innovación social para comprender las respuestas y soluciones de los actores en escenarios con condiciones adversas que impiden el establecimiento de una visión de desarrollo conjunto entre las comunidades existentes en un territorio. Así, la investigación tuvo como objetivo identificar el enfoque de innovación social que se ajuste al contexto y condiciones locales del departamento del Cauca, Colombia. La metodología fundamentada en el pensamiento complejo tuvo tres momentos. El primero, basado en la dialógica, recogió la diversidad de nociones conceptuales para identificar las interrelaciones existentes entre innovación social y diseño. El segundo, soportado en el principio hologramático evidenció las partes del todo, mediante un análisis multicriterio social que valoró los elementos técnicos y de equidad para determinar la alternativa de innovación social pertinente para el Cauca. El tercero encontró en la autoorganización el patrón con las relaciones esencialesen el sistema y propuso un tejido relacional para este territorio. Como parte de los resultados se encontró que la innovación social emerge como un concepto referente para las apuestas de diseño de mundos que tienen una orientación hacia la sustentación y transición. Así mismo, la valoración de los enfoques económicogerencial, sociológico, socio-resiliente, institucional-participativo y de diseño, ofrecieron una jerarquización de las soluciones compromiso mostrando como resultado que el enfoque de diseño, en una perspectiva ontológica, es la respuesta pertinente a los procesos de innovación social en el Cauca. Finalmente se encontró que el patrón de la innovación social se entiende como un proceso de disoñación y con escala multinivel.

Authors: GUL Ayse , ŞENOL ARSLAN Dilek , UZAL Niğmet
Published: September 2022

This study aimed to investigate the effect of Gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3) concentration (0.5%, 1%, and 2%) on the performance of polysulfone (PSF) membrane. The membranes were fabricated by a common phase inversion method. The performance of membranes was determined based on pure water flux, bovine serum albumin (BSA) permeation test. These fabricated membranes were characterized by FTIR and contact angle measurements. The highest BSA rejection was 53%. The optimum membrane (2 % wt Gd2O3 /17 % wt PSF) in this study was determined by PSF 17% which successfully exhibited 53% rejection with filtrate flux for about 8.7 L/m2.h at a pressure of 10 bar.
Path Tracking and Connection Mechanism of a Reconfigurable, Foldable, Legged, and Miniature Robot
Authors: UĞUR Mustafa , UYGUN Muhammed , BAKIR Alihan , ÖZCAN Onur
Published: September 2022

This work introduces the reconfigurable, foldable, legged, and miniature robot (REMIRO), a palm-size modular robot with compliant c-shaped legs. The robot’s body modules are made by folding acetate sheets. The legs connected to these modules are made of Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) using molding. The backbone modules are made of Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) using 3D printing. In this study, we propose a path tracking algorithm for our robot that enables our modules to move from a random initial location to the pose required to lock with another module. We also design and manufacture backbones with embedded permanent magnets to allow connection between modules. We also present a kinematic model of our robot utilizing c-shaped leg kinematics, predicting the forward differential kinematics of the robot, which is then used to test the path tracking algorithm. Our experiments show that the proposed path tracking algorithm moves our robot to the desired location with an average positioning error of 5mm and an average orientation error of 22°, which are small enough to permit docking between modules.
The Protective Effects of Sodium Pentaborate Tetrahydrate Against UVB-induced Apoptosis in Human Keratinocytes
Authors: AVŞAR ABDİK Ezgi
Published: September 2022

Ultraviolet radiation (UV) is an environmental carcinogen causing human skin cancer. Exposure of the skin to UV produces apoptotic keratinocytes called sunburn cells within the epidermis. Boron, an essential element for plants, has several biological properties, such as anti-cancer, anti-microbial, and anti-oxidant. In the present study, the possible protective effects of sodium pentaborate pentahydrate (SPT) against UVB-induced apoptosis in human keratinocyte cells, HaCaT, were investigated. They were treated with SPT at different concentrations (7.8-125 μg/mL) for 24h after UVB irradiation (20, 30 and 60mJ/cm2). Cell viability, annexin V assay, cell cycle analysis, and apoptosis-related gene levels were measured using RT-PCR. Treatment with SPT (15.6-31.25μg/mL) after 30 mJ/m2 UVB exposure significantly increased cell survival. Annexin V apoptosis analysis demonstrated a robust protective effect by treatment with SPT at concentrations of 15.6 and 31.25μg/mL after 30mJ/cm2 UVB irradiation. The cell cycle analysis revealed that UVB irradiation elevated the number of cells at the G0/G1 phase while SPT treatment after UVB irradiation increased the number of cells at G2/M phase, suggesting the changes were partially reversed. Furthermore, treatment with 15.6μg/mL SPT after 30 mJ/m2 UV irradiation blocked the activation of caspase 3, caspase 9, Bax, and p53. These results indicate that treatment with SPT exerts protective effects after UVB irradiation. Thus, treatment with SPT led to strong protection against UVB-induced apoptotic cell death in HaCaT cells.
One Step Fabrication of Hollow and Highly Flexible Polydimethylsiloxane Microneedles
Authors: CAKMAK Soner
Published: September 2022

In this study, the hollow and highly flexible polydimethylsiloxane microneedles were fabricated in a one step and simple design. For this purpose, a commercial dermastamping device (Dermastamp® 140 DRS) was used as a mold to obtain highly flexible PDMS microneedles containing channels. With the proposed design, microneedles with a total height of 1500 μm, 1500 μm center-to-center spacing and 150 μm channel diameter was successfully fabricated. These data are all compatible with the dimensions and the geometry of the mold used. Then, a syringe adapter was fabricated with a 3D printer and combined with the hollow PDMS microneedle patch for the high-throughput production of alginate beads. After the adapter and the hollow PDMS microneedle patch combination was placed into the syringe pump, the mostly spherical alginate beads with a mean diameter of 2.0 ± 0.3 mm was produced. To sum up, the proposed design and fabrication scheme first offer a novel and simple strategy for the fabrication of hollow polymeric microneedles. Moreover, this system has the potential to be used not only for the high-throughput microfluidic fabrication of polymeric beads, but also in controlled drug delivery systems and cell encapsulation studies.

In this editorial, we describe the work that has been undertaken by the ESTS editorial collective (EC) over the last two years towards establishing a publishing infrastructure for open research data. A broad movement in the scholarly community is pushing towards data sharing or “open data,” particularly in the natural sciences and medicine. Recognizing that there are compelling reasons why scholars are wary of data sharing and careful to protect their work, our EC has pursued experiments towards establishing a publishing infrastructure. The goal is to better understand the possible benefits for the STS community from data sharing and the role that a scholarly-run journal like ESTS could play in realizing such opportunities. The sharing of data could serve as an archive of work in/for STS; offer greater recognition of diverse contributions to scholarly research beyond individual author(s); enable reuse of data for new insights and pedagogical opportunities; and engender new forms of scholarly community in the field.
Maneuvering through a Changing Funding Terrain: Biomedical University Scientists in Positive and Negative Feedback Loops
Authors: Kladakis Alexander , Aagaard Kaare , Hansen Janus
Published: September 2022

The mechanisms of research funding are in flux across the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries. In Denmark the research system has experienced an increase in the concentration of research funding on individual researchers and topic areas. This article documents such concentration patterns in biomedical research and applies a case study methodology to explore some of its consequences. The study contrasts the markedly different funding environments of two sets of biomedical researchers at the same public university. One set of scientists has benefited significantly from working in specialized research centers sponsored by private funds. The other, located at a conventional university department has been adversely affected by the changing funding logic of the Danish research system. We compare the two sets of researchers with regard to: 1) how they perceive their funding conditions to have changed in recent times, 2) what coping strategies they rely on, and 3) how they perceive this to impact their “problem choice.” Our analysis shows how scientists, as a consequence of rising competition over funding and growing resource concentration on fewer research specialties (of particular interest to private funders), perceive considerable pressure to adapt their research activities. The perceived impact however differs substantially across informants.
Chairside vs Labside All-Ceramic FDPs - A Systematic Review v1
Authors: not provided tim.joda
Published: September 2022

Nowadays, the term digital is ubiquitous and everything has to be digitally branded to be up to date. Digitalization is not a trend, it is reality – and dental medicine is no exception. Dentistry is digital, the attribute phrasedigital dentistryis no longer necessary. This continuous IT process has opened up new possibilities in reconstructive dentistry. On the one hand, digital 3D diagnostics has rapidly developed to the point of treatment simulation using virtual dental patients, and on the other hand, new production processes using computer-aided design / computer-aided manufacturing [CAD/CAM] for therapy with monolithic restorations are now feasible. Chairside dental protocols allow in-office treatment of prosthetic restorations during a single appointment: (1)starting with clinical preparation of the restoration site, either tooth-borne or implant-retained; (2)followed by intraoral optical scanning [IOS]; (3)further CAD/CAM processing of the dental restoration; and finally (4)clinical insertion. However, chairside does not necessarily mean a ‘one-man-show’ by the clinician, but rather a treatment option for immediate rehabilitation on a single-visit basis. Patients expect high esthetics, prosthetic invisibility, and incorporated function in harmony. They are also looking for a time-saving solution and convenient treatment experience, but they do not care who performs and finalizes the technical fabrication of the restoration. In the end, the prosthetic reconstruction must meet all expectations for both the patient and the dentist.

Published: September 2022

This research is a development of Low’s theory (2008) on assessing the quality of song lyric translation based on its translation method. The objective of the study is to discover the quality of rhyme and rhythm of song lyrics in the album We Love Disney which have been translated from English to Indonesian. Therefore, this study focuses on the quality of rhyme and rhythm of the translation because these elements are significant parts of the songs. Low’s theory has been applied in the present study to measure the song lyric translation quality using three translation methods: communicative, free, and semantic methods. The study employs a qualitative approach through comparative analysis. Data in the analysis are the song lyrics and their translation, and their rhymes and rhythms. The values of the rhyme and rhythm in the translations were obtained from the comparative analysis. The findings reveal that song lyrics translated using the communicative translation method have a higher rhyme value than the original song lyrics; in contrast, the lyrics translated using a free method yield a rhyme value with a considerable difference. The assessment of rhythm reveals that a song translated using the free method shows a substantial difference in value compared to translations using the other methods.

Introducción: la depresión y ansiedad son frecuentes luego de un traumatismo craneoencefálico (TCE). Existe evidencia contradictoria en cuanto a la relación entre estos trastornos y la gravedad del TCE. El objetivo fue evaluar la asociación entre la aparición de síntomas ansiosos o depresivos con la gravedad del TCE en adultos que sufrieron TCE moderado o grave en Medellín – Antioquia.
Métodos: estudio de tipo analítico en una cohorte prospectiva de pacientes mayores de 18 años con TCE moderado o grave. Se evaluaron los síntomas ansiosos de estado y rasgo (STAI E y STAI R) y los síntomas depresivos (PHQ-9) al inicio y a los 6 meses y se compararon según la gravedad del TCE medido con la Escala de Coma de Glasgow (ECG).
Resultados: se incluyeron 58 pacientes, 35 con TCE grave y 23 con TCE moderado; 70.6 % de los pacientes completaron el seguimiento. Los accidentes de tránsito y las caídas representaron el 86 % de las causas de TCE. Los pacientes con TCE grave tenían síntomas depresivos más intensos al inicio (p= 0,027) y a los seis meses (p= 0,012). No se encontraron diferencias en los síntomas ansiosos entre grupos, a excepción de la ansiedad de rasgo a los 6 meses en el grupo de graves (p= 0,043).
Conclusiones: la intensidad de los síntomas depresivos medidos con el PHQ-9 está directamente relacionada con la gravedad del TCE medido con la ECG, mientras que la relación de los síntomas ansiosos con la gravedad del TCE no es tan clara.

Los factores asociados de forma negativa fueron proceder de Bolivia (RP: 0,05, p = 0,005), Argentina (RP: 0,06, p = 0,011) y Perú (RP: 0,14, p < 0,001).
Conclusión: existe un pobre entrenamiento en capacidades científicas-académicas básicas en estudiantes de medicina. Proceder de universidad privada y estar afiliado a sociedades científicas o grupos afines se asoció a una mayor frecuencia de adquirir dichas herramientas.
Língua-código e/ou língua-verbo? Um olhar decolonial sobre a sala de aula de inglês
Authors: Da Silva Jhuliane Evelyn , Marson Isabel Cristina Vollet
Published: September 2022

Em tempos de globalização neoliberal, a língua inglesa tem assumido espaço hegemônico como língua da comunicação, da ciência, dos negócios, da mídia e da educação. Esse espaço, naturalizado em decorrência de questões de poder, política e colonialidade, tende a apagar questões como quem pode falar inglês, que variedade é validada e a quem ele pertence, por exemplo. Diante dessa problemática, resgatamos nossas pesquisas de doutoramento, ambas estudos qualitativos realizados no espaço da universidade sobre a formação inicial de professoras e da escola pública sobre a formação continuada de professoras, com o intento de investigar como a concepção de língua e, portanto, de língua inglesa, moldou e ressignificou as práticas das participantes das pesquisas nos contextos mencionados. Para tanto, o estudo baseou-se em perspectivas críticas e decoloniais, sobretudo nas reflexões produzidas pelo grupo Latino-americano Modernidade/Colonialidade. As reflexões feitas apontaram para tensões existentes entre as concepções de língua enquanto código ou enquanto prática social nos imaginários e práticas das participantes em ambos os contextos de formação docente. Por fim, o espaço ambivalente e situado da sala de aula de inglês é considerado produtivo para a desconstrução e expansão de conhecimentos, bem como para a reconfiguração da função da educação e dos papéis assumidos por professoras e estudantes em sua formação.
Indelible Coloniality and Emergent Decoloniality in Colombian-Authored EFL Textbooks: A Critical Content Analysis
Authors: Núñez Pardo Astrid
Published: September 2022

The use of Colombian-authored EFL textbooks as subalternation instruments, the instrumentalization of grammar and foreign methodologies, and the imperialism of a profit-driven publishing industry perpetuates colonial links. This article reports a critical content analysis of six Colombian-authored EFL textbooks from local and foreign publishers. It was framed within a sociocritical paradigm, which included interviews with four authors, six teachers, and two editors. Findings reveal three triads of decolonial criteria: (a) The triad of ontological criteria unsettles the reproduction of foreign beliefs, behaviours, values, and ideologies; (b) the triad of epistemological criteria subverts North and West dominant knowledge and culture, and (c) the triad of power criteria withstands globalised and neoliberal discourses imposed through teaching methods, curricula, materials, testing, training, and standardised English varieties. The findings also indicate that there are still colonial traces in the representation of gender, races, sexual orientations, capacities, and social classes. Thus, developing efl materials from a decolonial perspective contests the commercial, standardised, and colonised textbooks to build contextualised and decolonised efl materials otherwise that are sensitive to cultural diversity. This academic endeavour exhorts teachers to assume a critical stance towards EFL materials content, learning activities and strategies, underpinning language pedagogies, iconography, language policy, and assessment practices, and to exert their agency to contest hegemony and recreate situated EFL pedagogical practices.
Learning for or Learning with: Avaliar se Avaliando for an ELT Assessment Otherwise
Authors: Haus Camila , Schmicheck João Victor
Published: September 2022

We are two teachers engaged with English language teaching (ELT) from a critical perspective. As many other instructors who share this same line of thought, we have felt discomfort throughout our careers when evaluating students. Students, in turn, have also experienced the triggering of emotions, such as insecurity and imposterism when facing a test. This happens because there is still a predominance of structuralist, modern, and positivist assumptions in teaching, and more evidently, in assessment. With this background, we turned our attention to assessment in a more critical way, trying to develop a project that challenged the traditional, hegemonic, and normative paradigms in elt and proposed an alternative otherwise. This is how, at a language center from a Federal University in Brazil, we decided to explore a different way of doing assessment by asking students to collaboratively create booklets during one semester. In this article, we present and reflect on the approach we took. We conclude by arguing that assessment can be seen as a movement of avaliar se avaliando, a practice characterized by the reflexivity of teachers and students throughout the process.
Critical Race and Decolonial Theory Intersections to Understand the Context of ELT in the Global South
Authors: Bonilla Medina Sandra Ximena , Finardi Kyria
Published: September 2022

Critical race theory (CRT) questions social practices that have perpetuated discrimination and social inequality. Decolonial studies coincide with these efforts to deracialise elt practices, explaining racialisation as dominant structures constituted in whiteness-centred practices that situate some in disadvantage (usually non-white) while privileging others (usually white). In the context of English language teaching (ELT), that colonisation/racialisation can take the form of some hierarchisation of English native speakers from the Global North while otherising non-native speakers of English and native speakers of English from the Global South. Therefore, coloniality/racialisation are useful terms to explain practices that value foreign over local identities alienating regional/local views and languages. In this article, the links between CRT and decolonial theories are explored and colonisation/racialisation of ELT are approached through the analysis of macro and micro practices developed in two public universities, one in Colombia and one in Brazil. The aim is to disrupt those practices by making evident decolonisation/deracialisation efforts in undergraduate and graduate students’ proposals.

Ante un complejo entorno político, económico, ambiental y social, las organizaciones requieren de nuevos informes que aporten a la sostenibilidad, entre estos el reporte integrado (R.I.) emitido por el Consejo Internacional de Reporte Integrado (IIRC, 2014), organismo que estableció un marco internacional para presentar reportes financieros e informes de relevancia como: estrategia del negocio, los aspectos sociales, medioambientales y los capitales que aporten a la creación de valor. En consecuencia, el profesional contable como garante de la confianza pública, requiere de una formación integral y desarrollo de competencias en la elaboración y comprensión del R.I. para dar respuestas a las diferentes necesidades de los grupos de interés. Así el objetivo busca comprender el marco internacional del R.I. como reto para la formación profesional contable en el siglo XXI. La metodología aplicada a este artículo es cualitativa, basada en la revisión documental. Como resultado se determina la necesidad de comprender al R.I. como estrategia de gestión para participar en el competitivo mundo de los negocios y la necesidad de incluir en el plan de estudios contenidos y aprendizajes para la sostenibilidad y elaboración de informes no financieros.
Illiberal Discourse in Romania: A “Golden” New Beginning?
Authors: Dragolea Alina
Published: September 2022

While interest in illiberalism has increased in recent years, the study of the connections between anti-gender discourse and transnational dissemination is a more recent scholarly endeavour. Emerging feminist scholarship has helped to move beyond national cases of illiberalism to understand how the gendered nature of illiberalism is revealed through its ability to cross borders and, in recent years, to become a movement with a transnational character. This article examines the evolution of the political discourse on gender in Romania and proposes a three-stage framework leading from gender traditionalism to a more pronounced illiberal discourse. The article examines whether the recent rise of the political party Alliance for the Union of Romanians (Alianța pentru Unirea României, AUR) represents a new step towards an established political illiberal discourse in Romania. The official public addresses of AUR are analysed to show how the terminology and themes identified as cornerstones of illiberalism (e.g., anti-gender, traditional family, opposition to reproductive rights, education, and anti-LGBTQ) are incorporated into its rhetoric.

Introduction. Thrombosis is a formidable complication of the oncological process that still profoundly contributes to overall mortality despite the anticoagulant use. According to the recent data, thrombosis in cancer represents a special type of prothrombotic state, wherein thromboinflammationis one of its constituents. In addition, thromboinflammation contributes both to the disease progression and intensity of metastasis processes. Recently, a large number of studies worldwide have been devoted to investigating thromboinflammation in cancer patients.

Aim: to assess NETosis activity (the process of neutrophils extracellular traps synthesis), namely, the concentration of citrullinated histone H3 (citH3) as a blood plasma NETosis marker in women with malignant genital organs and breast neoplasms.

Materials and Мethods. The prospective observational controlled non-randomized study included 45 patients (main group) with malignant neoplasms of uterus body, ovaries, cervix (adenocarcinoma of the cervical canal) and mammary glands admitted to the hospital for planned surgical treatment (13, 15, 5 and 13 patients, respectively) and 33 women with benign neoplasms of the genital organs and mammary gland (control group). The plasma citН3 concentration was determined using an enzyme immunoassay.

Results. It was found that cancer patients had citН3 concentration significantly increased (1.434–2.058 ng/ml) compared with the control group (0.281–0.371 ng/ml). The concentration of citH3 in patients with tumors of the uterine body and cervix ranged from 2.271 to 2.992 ng/ml, patients with ovarian tumors – from 1.357 to 2.123 ng/ml, patients with breast tumors – from 0.331 to 0.859 ng/ml. The study revealed no significant differences in the citH3 concentration in patients with breast tumors compared to the control group. Upon elevating citН3 concentration, such parameters as C-reactive protein, D-dimer, neutrophils and platelets count, as well as neutrophils/lymphocytes ratio were significantly increased. Significant differences were revealed in platelet count in the main group (236,68–273,77×109/L) vs. control group (178,14–202,35×109/L).

Conclusion. The study demonstrated the activation of NETosis in patients with tumors of the uterine body as well as cervix (adenocarcinoma) and ovaries that might be combined with hemostasis activation and systemic inflammatory response.

Published: September 2022

La presente investigación tiene como objetivo describir las principales características de construir una estructura intelectual bibliográfica de la producción científica mundial relacionada con el comportamiento económico en los campos de economía, administración y negocios, a partir de un análisis descriptivo de la estructura, contenido y evolución. La metodología corresponde a un análisis bibliométrico de literatura de la principal base de datos científica Web of Science, utilizando software especializado y programación en R. Se construyó una base de datos con 12,668 artículos relacionados con las frases "comportamiento económico" y “economía del comportamiento” desde el año 2000 al 2020. El análisis mostró cierta correlación entre ambas búsquedas, aunque no completa, por lo cual se muestra la importancia de delimitar correctamente los parámetros bibliométricos.

Published: September 2022

La implementación de Programas de Salud y Bienestar Laboral tiene como propósito mejorar las condiciones de salud y bienestar de los empleados, reducir el absentismo y a su vez impactar positivamente la productividad en las organizaciones; sin embargo, no se ha evidenciado un análisis bibliométrico que haya permitido identificar y analizar las perspectivas de investigación de los Programas de Salud y Bienestar Laboral por parte de la comunidad académica aplicando la metodología del árbol de la ciencia (en adelante ToS). Para cubrir este aspecto se revisaron los artículos publicados desde el año 2001 hasta el 2020 en la base de datos Web of Science, construyendo el árbol de la ciencia de los Programas de Salud y Bienestar Laboral, identificando y analizando las tres principales perspectivas de investigación: la promoción y prevención en salud, la intervención del estrés mental y la prevención del burnout, y la prevención de los efectos de la obesidad a través de la actividad física. Teniendo en cuenta que la literatura identificada en la presente revisión se ha generado en mayor proporción en Estados Unidos y Reino Unido, se recomienda la realización de futuras investigaciones en nuestro país que sirvan de referencia académica para que las organizaciones colombianas fortalezcan la gestión de la salud y el bienestar laboral de su talento humano.

INTRODUCTION: The incidence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) might not be decreasing as much among young adults as in the general population in recent years. The goal of our study was to explore incidence, risk factors and prognosis of AMI among young patients in Iceland. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This was a retrospective case control study. The data was obtained from the SCAAR-SWEDEHEART database, medical records from Landspitali University Hospital and the death register from the Directorate of Health. The epidemiology of women ≤55 years and men ≤50 years diagnosed with AMI (STEMI/NSTEMI) in Iceland in 2014-2020 was compared with older patients. RESULTS: Of all the cases (2852), 344 patients (12%) were young. No change was demonstrated in the incidence of AMI in the young patients during the study period. The proportion of STEMI was higher among young patients (52% vs. 35%, p<0.001). Smoking (50% vs. 26%, p<0.001) and obesity (BMI>30 kg/m2)(47% vs. 36%, p<0.01) were more prevalent in younger patiens compared to the older. Older patients were more likely to die in the year following the AMI, both from all-cause (7% vs. 3%, p<0.05) and cardiovascular mortality (7% vs. 3%, p<0.05). A difference in recurrent AMI between the young and older patients was not demonstrated (2% vs. 3%, p=0.3). CONCLUSION: During the research period, a change in the incidence of AMI among young patients, was not demonstrated. Younger patients with AMI have different risk factors than older patients, they have lower mortality rate but the same risk of recurrent AMI.
The appearance of Unified Silla-type pottery: a production-system perspective
Authors:   Korean Ancient Historical Society, Kim Hyunwoo
Published: September 2022

This study attempts to examine the establishment of Unified Silla-type pottery from the point of view of the pottery production system. For this purpose, the distribution of production facilities, production scale, and production process were reviewed in the Songok-dong/Mulcheon-ri and Hwagok-ri sites of Gyeongju, which are representative production sites in the capital of Silla, to shed light on their characteristics and determine whether changes in production system had occurred. It is suggested that the production organization and scale expanded after unification, and the clay preparation process was separated from each production unit, making pottery production more efficient. This change in the production system is thought to be related to an increase in the demand for pottery, resulting from an increase in population due to the unification of the three kingdoms by Silla. The decrease in types and the expansion of stamped-design on the pottery surface seen in Unified Silla-type pottery are probably related to these changes in the production system and the increase in demand for pottery.
