Misdiagnosis in molecular detection of colistin resistance: false mcr-1-PCR positivity among the colistin-susceptible Acinetobacter baumannii isolates
Authors: NAĞIYEV Toğrul , KANDEMİR Tülay , KÖKSAL Fatih
Published: September 2023

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of the mcr-1 gene, which is responsible for colistin resistance, in carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria that cause difficult-to-treat infections in a research hospital in Turkey.

Materials and Methods: The mcr-1 gene was examined using PCR in 103 carbapenem-resistant isolates, including 75 Acinetobacter baumannii, 19 Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and 9 Klebsiella pneumoniae. DNA sequencing was performed to confirm the mcr-1 positivity. Other antimicrobial resistance genes were investigated in isolates that were found to be mcr-1-positive by PCR and colistin-resistant isolates.

Results: Four (3.9% of the 103 carbapenem-resistant isolates and 5.3% of the 75 A. baumannii isolates) A. baumannii isolates, all susceptible to colistin, were found to be mcr-1-positive by PCR, whereas mcr-1 was not detected in four colistin-resistant isolates, one in A. baumannii and three in K. pneumoniae. DNA sequencing analysis determined that none of the amplification products was the targeted fragment, but they matched more than 70% with the chromosomal DNA fragments of A. baumannii strains. Therefore, these results were considered false-positive. Although these false-positive isolates were susceptible to colistin, they were extensively drug-resistant (XDR). Two of them were found to carry blaOXA23-like and blaTEM genes, another blaOXA23-like, blaTEM and blaOXA48-like genes, and the fourth one to have blaOXA23-like and blaCTXM genes.

Conclusion: Although the specificity of the primers used to detect the mcr-1 gene by PCR was reported as 100% in most studies, we concluded that PCR tests are insufficient yet to use alone or with antibiotic susceptibility tests in rapid routine diagnosis. Confirming at least PCR-positive samples using DNA sequence analysis would be appropriate for a certain period.
A neuroimaging study of altered cortical and subcortical volume in adolescent methamphetamine users
Authors: TEMİRCAN Zekeriya
Published: September 2023

Purpose: The aim of this study was is to compare brain structure volume, including cortical and subcortical regions of adolescents- methamphetamine users versus non-users.
Materials and Methods: The study was designed to be cross-sectional, and structural magnetic resonance imaging scans were obtained from the participants, including ten methamphetamine users and nine non-users. volBrain program was used to evaluate the images.
Results: The results showed that methamphetamine users altered brain structures- temporal, parietal lobes, nucleus accumbens, amygdala, hippocampus, and thalamus volume. Also, the statistically significant difference in the volume between methamphetamine users and non-users was found in subcortical regions except putamen by age. Volumetric analysis of methamphetamine use in adolescents confirms a reduction in temporal lobes (methamphetamine users M±SD=3.43±0.18 non-users M±SD=3.48±0.22) and parietal lobes (methamphetamine users M±SD=2.23±0.24, non-users M±SD=2.37±0.33) in cortical regions in the brain as tissue volume. However, methamphetamine uses caused an increase in volume in the subcortical regions.
Conclusion: Methamphetamine use appears to show decreased volume in the brain regions with age, which has adverse effects on cognitive, emotional, memory, and social abilities.

ÖZET
Glokom, optik sinirin dejenerasyonu ile karakterize karmaşık bir hastalıktır ve dünya çapında geri döndürülemez körlüğün en yaygın nedenidir. Epidemiyolojik çalışmalar, glokomdan etkilenen ailelerin raporları, genom çapında ilişkilendirme çalışmaları ve glokomun hayvan modelleri kullanılarak glokom için genetik bir temel oluşturulmuştur. Glokom, nadir görülen erken başlangıçlı hastalık (40 yaşından önce) için tipik olan Mendel kalıtımı ve yaygın erişkin başlangıçlı hastalık formlarında belirgin olan karmaşık kalıtım ile her yaşta ortaya çıkabilmektedir. Son çalışmalar, miyosilin, optineurin ve TANK bağlayıcı kinaz 1 mutasyonlarının neden olduğu erken başlangıçlı glokomu olan bazı hastalar için olası terapötik hedefler önermektedir. Erken başlangıçlı glokom hastalığının tanısında kullanılan genetik testler de semptomatik hastalıkların tespiti için yararlı olduğunu kanıtlamaktadır. Primer Açık Açılı Glokom, Primer Açı Kapanması Glokomu ve Eksfoliyasyon Sendromu olmak üzere üç yaygın yetişkin başlangıçlı glokom tipi bulunmaktadır. Tamamlanan genom çapında ilişkilendirme çalışmaları sonucunda; Primer Açık Açılı Glokom’un: ABCA1, AFAP1, GMDS, PMM2, TGFBR3, FNDC3B, ARHGEF12, GAS7, FOXC1, ATXN2, TXNRD2, Primer Açı Kapanması Glokomu’nun: EPDR1, CHAT, GLIS3, FERMT2, DPM2-FAM102 ve Eksfoliyasyon Sendromu Glokomu’nun ise CACNA1A genleriyle ilişkili olduğu belirlenmiştir. Yapılan bu çalışmalar hastalık patogenezine katkıda bulunan önemli biyolojik yolları ve süreçleri tanımlamaya yardımcı olmaktadır.

Authors: KOZANOGLU Erkan
Published: September 2023

El osteoartriti (OA), birey ve toplum üzerinde önemli bir yük oluşturan dünya çapında sık görülen bir sağlık problemidir. Hastalık, el eklemlerini etkileyen lokal bir OA formudur. El OA prevalansı yaşla birlikte artmasına rağmen, orta yaşlı insanların çoğunda en az bir el eklemini etkileyen radyografik OA bulunmaktadır. Genel olarak hastaların % 3-16’sı semptomatik hale gelmekte ve hastalığın değişken bir klinik gidişatı bulunmaktadır. Ağrı, sertlik, fonksiyonel bozukluk sıklıkla bildirilen semptomlar olup sonuçta günlük yaşam aktivitelerinde kısıtlanma ve yaşam kalitesinde azalma oluşmaktadır. El OA tanısı klinik ve/veya radyolojik olarak konulmaktadır. Yüksek prevalansına rağmen, hastalığın yönetiminde etkili tedavi modaliteleri az sayıdadır. Son yıllarda el OA yönetimine daha fazla dikkat çekilmiştir. Avrupa Romatizma Karşıtı Birlik (European League Against Rheumatism-EULAR), Amerikan Romatoloji Koleji (The American College of Rheumatology-ACR)/Artrit Vakfı (Arthritis Foundation-AF) önerileri başta olmak üzere çok sayıda klinik rehber yayınlanmıştır. El OA farmakolojik ve non-farmakolojik tedavileri temel olarak; hasta eğitimi ve kendi kendine yönetimi, ortezler, egzersiz, fizik tedavi modaliteleri, topikal veya sistemik nonsteroidal antiinflamatuvar ilaçlar, oral kortikosteroidler ve farklı intra-artiküler tedavileri içermektedir. Literatürde yeni tedavi seçenekleri önerilmiş olmakla birlikte, bunlar hakkında yeterli kanıtlar bulunmamaktadır ve bu durum klinik uygulamada dikkatle değerlendirilmelidir.
Bu makalede, konuyla ilgili sağlık profesyonellerine rehberlik etmesi amacıyla, el OA yönetiminde yer alan farmakolojik ve non-farmakolojik tedavi yaklaşımları ile birlikte yeni gelişmeler gözden geçirilmiştir.

Published: September 2023

For several years now, the concept of AI being able to quickly and extensively replace expert workers at massive scales has been on the cusp of becoming a reality. Although AI has shown to be an effective tool for many activities, humans still have a significant advantage in many other areas. Companies are becoming more conscious of this fact. As a result, they are restructuring their business processes to provide their experts and customers with AI support in a more targeted manner. This study aims to present a high-quality review that covers unique, cutting-edge technologies and methodologies connected with the scientific design, development, and implementation of AI-DSS employing the most recent developments in AI and multi-criteria decision-making. The review will be presented in the form of a report. This article examines whether or not the growth of so-called artificial intelligence-driven decision support systems, also known as AI-DSS, threatens decision-making processes and, if so, how that threat manifests itself.
Acquisitive Crime Trends: Unpacking the Unemployment-Crime Relationship in a Rural Context
Authors: Bostrom Sarah R. , Randa Ryan , Brown Wyatt
Published: September 2023

Tests of criminological theory are conducted almost exclusively about urban spaces. In urban areas, rates of property and acquisitive crime are often tied to economic structural health through institutional anomie and market society theories. Examinations of the connection between economic structures and acquisitive crime in rural spaces are lacking in the literature. This study uses United States’ NCVS data from 1993-2005 examine trends in acquisitive crime over time from a macro level economic theoretical perspective in rural United States counties. Implications for additional rural theory tests will be addressed.

Published: September 2023

Individuals who have been involved with the criminal justice system face many re-entry obstacles in their communities, including homelessness and unemployment, which increase their likelihood of recidivism. These challenges are often multiplied for justice-involved individuals in rural communities where access to employment opportunities and suitable housing are limited. This article provides an overview of specific challenges to obtaining and maintaining suitable housing and employment for those with previous involvement in the criminal justice system in the United States. Recommendations for using an evidence-based multi-agency collaborative approach to service provision to reduce recidivism and improve housing stability among this population are discussed and encouraged.
Understanding Factors Leading to Farmer Non-compliance with Agri-food Safety Regulations in Kenya: A Quantitative Analysis
Authors: Bunei Emmanuel K. , Barclay Elaine , Kotey Bernice
Published: September 2023

This article presents the findings of a study that examined the factors that influence farmers’ compliance decisions concerning agri-food safety laws in Kenya. A total of 160 farmers in Uasin Gishu County in Kenya were surveyed using semi-structured interviews. Twelve variables were used to test the associations between farmer demographics, instrumental and normative factors as independent variables and agri-food safety regulatory compliance as dependent variable. Regression analysis revealed that deterrence factors, farmer training and extension services, and legitimacy factors are significantly related to farmers’ compliance with agri-food safety regulations. These findings suggest that regulators should not only focus on enforcing and tightening regulations but also improve the provision of training and information on agri-food safety regulations for farmers. Furthermore, additional efforts should be directed to making laws simpler, clearer, relevant and appropriate for farmers.

REVISITING DEMOCRACY AS A RIGHT PROTECTED BY INTERNATIONAL LAW: CHALLENGES BROUGHT BY AFRICAN MILITARY COUPS
Authors: KABANO Jacques , ÖZER Adem
Published: September 2023

In Africa, democracy is the meeting of two streams of traditions: one from Western countries, the other specifically African. Since the 1990s, all the States of this continent have established a pluralist electoral process with competition between candidates, with the exception of Eritrea. However, this era again witnessed multiple coups than before. The groups responsible for the coups quickly occupied the centres of command, decision-making and administration, replacing the previous chief executives and the most senior officials with people of their choice. They ended up controlling the entire state authority. Despite the size of the continent and the multiplicity of situations, the reality remains the same in Africa. Until today coups are still happening. The principal aim of international law is to sustain global peace between countries. However, this peace cannot be reached when international law is indifferent to the domestic peace of members of international community regardless of the origin of the threat. The aim of this research is to analyse whether there is an obligation under the international law to be democratic and whether military coups especially the recent African coups can establish an obligation under international law.

Abstrak

Stagnasi Pendidikan di Desa Bagan Kuala masih menjadi permasalahan serius yang disebabkan oleh berbagai faktor salah satunya adalah kurangnya komunikasi di dalam keluarga untuk mendorong ana-anak mereka untuk melanjutkan pendidikan. Pendidikan masih dianggap tidak memberi dampak yang signifikan dalam kehidupan keluarga nelayan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk Menganalisis relasi kuasa dalam komunikasi keluarga nelayan pada kasus stagnasi pendidikan di Desa Bagan Kuala serta menganalisis kasus stagnasi pendidikan pada anak di Desa Bagan Kuala. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus (case study) serta paradigma konstruktivisme dengan menggunakan Teori Skema Hubungan Keluarga sebagai referensi. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa adanya  relasi kuasa yang terjadi pada keluarga nelayan dipegang oleh ayah sebagai pemegang kendali penuh dalam menentukan masa depan anak termasuk pendidikan. Kasus stagnansi pada anak di Desa Bagan Kuala disebabkan oleh orang tua dan anak yang tidak memiliki kemauan dan kuat dalam melanjutkan pendidikan. Orang tua dengan latar belakang rata-rata pendidikan sekolah dasar menjadi salah satu faktor yang membuat orang tua beromindset bahwa pendidikan tidak begitu menjadi sebuah prioritas. Hal ini diperburuk dengan sikap anak yang juga tidak memiliki kemauan kuat dalam melanjutkan sekolah. Pada akhirnya anak-anak tersebut tidak mampu menyelesaikan pendidikan setara SMP dan bahkan ada yang tidak menyelesaikan pendidikan dasar.

Published: September 2023

The cancer survival rates continue to increase with the passing day owing to advances in diagnostic modalities, therapeutic strategies and the ongoing research. Simultaneously, there is also an increase in the incidence of multiple primary cancers due to the increased survival, long term effects of chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy, higher diagnostic sensitivity and the persisting effects of behavioural and genetic risk factors. Multiple Primary Malignancies (MPM) was first described in 1879 by Billroth. Multiple primary tumours are defined as synchronous or metachronous tumours presenting in the same individual. The neoplasms may be limited to a single organ or may involve multiple anatomical organs. This article presents a case study of a 72-year old female, who was referred to our institute with a history of lump in the left breast and fracture of left clavicle.

Published: September 2023

Xanthogranulomatous inflammation (XGI) is a rare but well- described type of chronic inflammation. It was in the genitourinary tract where it was first reported. Any organ can be involved but the most common sites are kidney followed by the gallbladder.

Histologically, it can be characterized by a collection of lipids- laden macrophages along with inflammatory infiltrate, with or without cholesterol clefts.

XGI is extremely uncommon in the appendix. Due to its atypical presentation, it is usually detected post- operatively. Sami Akbulut et al. published a comprehensive study in January 2021 and reported only 38 patients worldwide.

Here, we present a case of a 20 – year old female who came to the OPD with typical signs of Acute Appendicitis diagnosed histopathologically as Xanthogranulomatous appendicitis
Rosyjski czasownik говеть i jego derywaty w konfrontacji przekładowej
Authors: Lewicki Roman
Published: September 2023

Artykuł prezentuje wyniki badania polskich odpowiedników przekładowych wszystkich rosyjskich leksemów wchodzących w skład gniazda derywacyjnego motywowanego czasownikiem говеть, przeprowadzone na kompletnym materiale tekstów rosyjskich ujętych w Narodowym Korpusie Języka Rosyjskiego i ich przekładach na język polski. Leksemy te, należące do słownictwa religijnego stosowanego powszechnie w sferze prawosławnej obyczajowości religijnej, nie mają stałych ekwiwalentów w języku polskim, co wymaga od tłumaczy zwiększonego wysiłku w ustalaniu ekwiwalentów oraz doborze odpowiednich technik translatorskich. Analizie poddano 91 kontekstów użycia badanych leksemów w 34 utworach literatury rosyjskiej XIX i XX wieku oraz ich przekładach. Stwierdzono, że tłumacze stosują szereg technik translatorskich, z których najczęstsza okazała się konkretyzacja, polegająca na redukcji w przekładach struktury semantycznej jednostek oryginalnych. Zastosowane techniki prowadzą do adaptacji kulturowej, w rezultacie nie akcentują odmienności prawosławnej obyczajowości religijnej. Obraz rosyjskiej obyczajowości prawosławnej ulega modyfikacji, a do czytelnika polskiego z reguły nie dociera informacja o jego specyficznych cechach.
Polsko-czeskie inicjatywy na polu kultury w ostatnich trzydziestu latach w regionie Śląska Cieszyńskiego

Published: September 2023

Zmiany przynależności państwowej Śląska Cieszyńskiego w okresie siedemdziesięciu lat i jego podział prowadziły stopniowo do zdezintegrowania jednolitej dotąd społeczności cieszyńskiej. Ludność autochtoniczna, pozostająca po 1920 r. na terenie Republiki Czechosłowackiej, czuła się odcięta od języka i kultury polskiej. W części polskiej Śląska Cieszyńskiego stopniowo zatracało się poczucie wspólnoty z ludnością na drugim brzegu Olzy. W wyniku tego powstały dwie odrębne tożsamościowo grupy Polaków: autochtoni, zamieszkujący tzw. Zaolzie (lewobrzeżne tereny Śląska Cieszyńskiego odgraniczone rzeką Olzą) – językowo i emocjonalnie związani z Polską, i Cieszynianie, którzy znaleźli się po „polskiej” stronie Olzy, włączając się naturalnie w krąg rodzimej kultury. Niniejszy artykuł przedstawia drogę do ponownego zjednoczenia społeczności cieszyńskiej. Platformą do odbudowania przerwanych więzi były i są kontakty na polu kultury.
Effects of different fertilization practices on CH4 and N2O emissions in various crop cultivation systems: A case study in Kazakhstan
Authors: KUSSAİNOVA Maira , TOİSHİMANOV Maxat , ISKAKOVA Gulnaz , NURGALİ Nursultan , CHEN Jiquan
Published: September 2023

The present study investigates the effects of different fertilization practices, including chemical and organic fertilizers, on CH4 and N2O emissions in various crop cultivation systems in Kazakhstan. The research focuses on three staple crops: wheat, barley, and corn, which are commonly grown in the region. A randomized complete block design field trial was conducted with three replications for each crop, totaling 27 plots. Gas sampling was carried out five times between June and September 2021, with cylindrical gas sampling chambers inserted into the soil at a depth of 10 cm. The concentrations of CH4 and N2O were analyzed using GS-MS. Results reveal that all three crops exhibited moderate to high CH4 and N2O emissions, with corn consistently displaying the highest emissions. Both chemical and organic fertilizers led to increased emissions of CH4 and N2O compared to control plots. The organic fertilizer treatment occasionally showed slightly higher emissions compared to chemical fertilizer treatment. However, the differences in CH4 and N2O concentrations between fertilized and unfertilized plots were not drastically significant. Notably, environmental factors, such as soil moisture and temperature, played a more prominent role in influencing CH4 and N2O production than the type of fertilizer applied. These findings underscore the significance of optimizing fertilization practices to minimize greenhouse gas emissions while maintaining crop productivity and promoting sustainable agriculture in Kazakhstan.

Authors: Abubakar Sulaiman Abdulkadir , Sharma Dr. Vikas
Published: September 2023

Study Design: A literature review was conducted in order to provide an overview of physiotherapy intervention on prevention and management of open fractures.
Objectives: In addition to determining the issue and choosing the best approach to decrease or get rid of the source of the loss of movement, this research will review the key functions of physiotherapy in relation to fractures. It is still debatable whether open fractures should be treated with irrigation and debridement (I&D) within six hours after the injury.
Materials and Methods: A narrative of the literature was performed by 21 articles with actual content based on relevant articles that were identified by a hard copy textbook, engines such as SCIENCE DIRECT, PUBMED, GOOGLESCHOLAR, ORTHOINFO and COCHRANE DATA BASE OF SYSTEMATIC REVIEW (www.cochrane.org),and CINALE. Website like physiopedia (www.physiopedia.com) was searched and published texts were `also reviewed in these studies.
Results: For rapid primary wound closure in gustilo-anderson grade 1, 2, and 3 An open fracture, infection rates of 2 to 3 percent have been documented. When primary wound closure was attained for Gustilo-Anderson grade 3 B, complete wound healing, bone consolidation, and no need for secondary surgery were reported in 86.7% of cases.
Conclusion: The most frequent open fractures are tibial, phalangeal, forearm, ankle, and metacarpal. Open fractures have a high rate of morbidity and mortality. All patients with open fractures require coverage for antibiotics and current tetanus injections. Optimal outcomes will result from early surgical care with involvement from plastic and vascular surgery as needed.
Utility of the Questionnaire on Children’s Processing of Sensory Input in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Authors: Gričar Nevenka , Gosar David
Published: September 2023

In addition to difficulties with social communication and behaviour flexibility, children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often experience difficulty responding to sensory input. Our aim was to assess the sensitivity of the Questionnaire on Children’s Processing of Sensory Input to sensory issues experienced by children with ASD. Based on the responses of 108 parents of neurotypical children and 27 parents of children with ASD (3 to 10 years), we found that the questionnaire differentiated well between the groups. The questionnaire may be used by health, education or social services professionals and represents a novel tool for recognizing sensory processing difficulties in children. Information gained from it can help plan additional supports for children with sensory challenges.

Struktur histopatologi kelompok N tidak menunjukkan adanya kerusakan pada tubulus ginjal. Pada kelompok perlakuan K- ditemukan adanya perdarahan inter-tubuler yang ditandai dengan perdarahan berlebih di ruang antar tubulus. Selain itu juga ditemukan perdarahan intra-tubuler disertai terjadinya piknosis, serta karioreksis. Pada kelompok perlakuan K+ ditemukan piknosis, kongesti, kariolisis, karioreksis dan nekrosis, tetapi perdarahan intra-tubuler tidak ditemukan. Penelitian ini menguatkan temuan dari penelitian hewan dan manusia baru-baru ini yang menunjukkan bahwa sepsis dengan cedera ginjal akut tidak dapat dijelaskan hanya dengan perubahan morfologis.

Sel germinal merupakan salah satu sumber sel yang masih bersifat totipotensi dan berperan dalam pembentukan organisme baru. Morfologi dan ekspresi protein pada sel germinal bersifat dinamis bergantung pada umur dan tahap perkembangan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengamati perubahan morfologi dan ekspresi protein sebagai marka sel germinal jantan pada fetus umur 13,5 hari pascakawin (days post coital/ dpc) dan anak mencit umur lima hari pascalahir. Hasil Rigi kelamin dan testis diisolasi dari mencit umur 13,5 dpc dan 5 hari. Jaringan kemudian dipreparasi histologi rutin, dan diwarnai dengan pewarnaan hematoksilin-eosin (HE), sedangkan untuk mengidentifikasi keberadaan protein Dazl, Vasa dan Oct4, jaringan diwarnai dengan pewarnaan imunohistokimia menunjukkan morfologi sel germinal jantan pada fetus mencit umur 13,5 dpc dan anak mencit umur lima hari pascalahir sama-sama berbentuk bulat oval. Namun, sel germinal jantan pada mencit umur lima hari pascalahir berukuran lebih besar, jumlah yang lebih sedikit dan terletak jauh dari membran basal. Pada sel germinal jantan umur 13,5 dpc menunjukkan positif lemah terhadap antibodi Oct 4 dan DAZL serta positif kuat terhadap antibodi Vasa. Pada umur lima hari, sel germinal jantan menunjukkan positif kuat terhadap antibodi Oct-4 dan DAZL, serta positif lemah terhadap antibodi Vasa. Simpulan dari penelitian ini adalah morfologi dan ekspresi marka sel germinal dipengaruhi oleh tahapan pertumbuhan dan perkembangan sel-sel germinal. Vasa dapat digunakan sebagai marka untuk sel germinal umur 13,5 dpc dan DAZL sebagai marka untuk sel germinal umur lima hari pascalahir.

The gastrointestinal acidity/pH can considerably influence the stability and absorption of oral medications. As a result, understanding the circumstances for drug delivery requires knowledge of gastrointestinal pH. Mice injected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) are used in the most well-studied animal models of sepsis. However, information on gastrointestinal pH in sepsis mice is still insufficient. This study was conducted to identify gastric pH values in mice induced by lipopolysaccharide. The LPS was injected intraperitoneally as well as 0.9% NaCl as control groups. Treated groups (LPS) consisted of four groups and the control group (0.9% NaCl) consisted of four groups. Ten mice were used in each group. Gastric pH measurement was conducted using pH meter Lutron PH-201. Based on this study, the factors that influenced gastric pH in sepsis animal models were the LPS doses and the time after LPS injection. The results of gastric pH measurement in sepsis mice did not show a decrease in the pH compared to the normal conditions. The dose of LPS significantly influences the gastric pH change.
Los planes de igualdad en las administraciones públicas
Authors: Roqueta Buj Remedios
Published: September 2023

Las Administraciones Públicas están obligadas a respetar la igualdad de trato y de oportunidades en el ámbito del empleo público y, con esta finalidad, de­ben elaborar y aplicar un plan de igualdad con indiferencia del tamaño de su plantilla. Los rasgos más sobresalientes de la normativa aplicable a los planes de igualdad en las Administraciones Públicas son su sumariedad y ambigüedad, de forma que son muchos los extremos que quedan en el negro o, cuando me­nos, en la penumbra, lo que obliga a su intérprete a llevar a cabo una complica­da labor de integración de lagunas. En este contexto se sitúa el presente estudio en el que se pretende clarificar el régimen aplicable a los planes de igualdad en el ámbito del empleo público.
La prestación por nacimiento y cuidado ante la muerte prenatal
Authors: Crespi Ferriol María del Mar
Published: September 2023

La muerte prenatal supone para la madre el derecho a un permiso laboral equivalente al que se le reconoce al tener un hijo vivo. Sin embargo, en el caso del progenitor distinto a la madre biológica, dicho derecho está en cuestión, habiendo sido negado por el Tribunal Supremo en su Sentencia de 5 de julio de 2022. En este trabajo se realiza una aproximación crítica a este problema, partiendo de una revisión histórica de la regulación positiva, para aportar argumentos en favor del tratamiento jurídico igualitario de la madre y el padre. En este mismo sentido apunta la doctrina judicial de los Tribunales Superiores de Justicia que se había venido pronunciado mayoritariamente a favor de la concesión del descanso paternal y, más aún, la reforma legislativa del Real Decreto-ley 6/2019, que unifica las antiguas prestaciones de maternidad y paternidad.
A tragic myth and a rhetorical question
Authors: Oliveira Flávio Ribeiro de
Published: September 2023

Dans cet article, j’analyse la stratégie rhétorique qui oriente l’affirmation d’un membre de l’élite de l’État de São Paulo (rapportée par Lévi-Strauss dans Tristes Tropiques) que les colons portugais avaient exterminé tous les indigènes brésiliens et que l’une des méthodes d’extermination était l’offre aux indigènes de vêtements infectés par la variole. Je compare la structure de ce récit avec la structure de mythes grecs comme celui de Médée ou celui de Déjanire et je cherche à démontrer que le paradigme sous-jacent à ce genre de récit est celui de la négation de l’autre pour, en opposition à cet autre, affirmer une certaine identité ethnique et culturelle.

Esta revisão sistemática, vinculada ao Núcleo de Estudos em Aquisição da Linguagem/UFRRJ, dedica-se ao levantamento de material científico publicado sob o tema autismo e prosódia na última década. O objetivo deste trabalho é o de coletar os artigos publicados sob o tópico mencionado que apresentam como metodologia a análise acústica, em um recorte temporal de 2011 a 2020/2021. Para isso, foram selecionadas palavras-chave específicas juntamente com a utilização de operadores booleanos para a pesquisa das publicações em 6 bases indexadoras diferentes: ERIC, PsycINFO, PubMed, MLA, SciELO e Scopus. Ao realizar a busca nessas plataformas científicas, obtiveram-se 174 resultados. Em seguida, após a tabulação dos dados em diferentes categorias e feita a análise de material, fazem parte desta revisão sistemática 74 artigos. Por fim, com a descrição da análise feita, apontando os traços comparativos e contrastantes dos artigos em questão, conclui-se que poucas são as publicações destinadas a descrever e analisar a manifestação acústica da linguagem em indivíduos com Transtorno do Espectro do Autismo. Por esta razão, busca-se também explicitar possíveis caminhos para pesquisas futuras sobre o tema autismo e prosódia, pela abordagem da análise acústica.
Difficulties in applying augmented reality technology in teaching history from the point of view of subject teachers
Authors: الساعدي د. دعاء عبد الخالق
Published: September 2023

The aim of the present research is to identify the difficulties of applying the technology of enhanced reality in teaching history from the standpoint of the teachers of the subject. A 20-paragraph survey measuring the most significant difficulties in applying the technology of enhanced reality in teaching has been built. The researcher applied the identification to a sample of history professors at the faculties of education and literature at Iraqi governmental and non-governmental universities, including 58 teachers. The research adopted the scoping descriptive approach, and the weight and weight of the weight were extracted to calculate the degree of difficulty in using the enhanced reality technique in teaching. The research found the following results: difficulties in applying the enhanced reality technique by history teachers; the most important of these was the sense of low importance of applying the enhanced reality technique in teaching; the lack of knowledge of using technical media from images, videos, and pamphlets; and the lack of lecture time with the density of the vocabulary. The researcher therefore recommends that the Ministry take decisions that will motivate teachers to use the technique as material and moral incentives, in addition to the need for universities to provide training courses, a comprehensive manual, and rooms equipped to use the enhanced reality technique for teaching.
The interplay of Turkish EFL teachers’ academic optimism, psychological well-being, and self-efficacy
Authors: Tas Busra Turan , Tuyan Seden Eraldemir
Published: September 2023

This study examined the relationships between Turkish EFL (English as a Foreign Language) teachers' sense of self-efficacy, psychological well-being, and academic optimism. The study's strength lies in its exploration of this question within the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, which provides a background that adds depth to the examination. Researchers collected data from 272 English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers during the pandemic. The study intended to identify the motivating factors underlying self-efficacy in this particular teacher set using the regression analysis perspective. The findings provided significant understanding; a strong link between self-efficacy and academic optimism was found. This shows that EFL teachers were more likely to demonstrate a better level of self-efficacy in their teaching responsibilities if they had a more positive outlook on academic outcomes. However, psychological well-being was not shown to be a significant predictor of self-efficacy. These findings shed light on a crucial aspect of classroom teacher efficiency and well-being. It shows that there is an intense desire to put teachers' health first, particularly in challenging circumstances like the pandemic. Creating a climate of intellectual positivity should be a priority in all educational initiatives; the study can operate as guidance, directing the creation of solutions to counteract possible adverse effects on teachers' psychological health and, consequently, their ability to teach effectively. It is concluded that this study provides insight into the complexity of teacher self-efficacy, highlighting the impact of psychological wellness, academic optimism, and crisis-related environments.
Host Defense Proteins and Peptides with Lipopolysaccharide-Binding Activity from Marine Invertebrates and their Therapeutic Potential in Gram-Negative Sepsis

Sepsis is a life-threatening complication of an infectious process that results from excessive and uncontrolled activation of the host's pro-inflammatory immune response to a pathogen. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), also known as endotoxin, which is a major component of the Gram-negative bacteria outer membrane, plays a key role in the development of Gram-negative sepsis and septic shock in humans. To date, no specific and effective drug against sepsis has been developed. This review summarizes data on LPS-binding proteins from marine invertebrates (ILBPs), that inhibit LPS toxic effects, and are of interest as potential drugs for the sepsis treatment. The structure, physicochemical properties, antimicrobial and LPS-binding/neutralizing activity of these proteins and their synthetic analogues are considered in details. Problems that arise during clinical trials of potential anti-endotoxic drugs are discussed.
