Capítulo 5. La construcción de casos sobre mediatización y circulación como objetos de investigación: de las lógicas de las analogías para estudiar la explosión de los desfasajes
Authors: Ferreira Jairo
Published: July 2023

El capítulo propone una perspectiva de construcción de casos de investigación sobre mediatización y circulación. A partir de la teoría de Eliseo Verón se acentúa la explosión de los desfasajes entre lógicas de producción y de reconocimiento como fenómeno central de los procesos de mediatización. La problemática del método está dirigida, en ese sentido, a la observación de esa diferenciación. El hilo conductor sugerido para investigar esos objetos en expansión (medios, lógicas de producción y recepción, usos y prácticas, circuitos y ambientes, nuevas narrativas y caminos, etc.) son los indicios, las inferencias y las relaciones analógicas, centrales en la constitución de casos de investigación diseñados por el argumento abductivo. Concluimos encontrando un caso como referencia del argumento deductivo e inductivo, y presentando algunas cuestiones relevantes para la investigación de las explosiones de desfasajes en los procesos de circulación mediática.
Capítulo 6. Cibersemiótica: un nuevo fundamento para una teoría interdisciplinar de la información, la cognición, la comunicación significativa y la interacción entre la naturaleza y la cultura
Authors: Brier Søren
Published: July 2023

El presente capítulo aborda de manera sintética las bases conceptuales de la cibersemiótica. La cibersemiótica es una propuesta conceptual que propone un marco no reduccionista para integrar el conocimiento de la tercera persona de las ciencias exactas y las ciencias de la vida con el conocimiento de la primera persona descrito como las cualidades del sentimiento en las humanidades y el conocimiento intersubjetivo de la segunda persona de las interacciones lingüísticas comunicativas parciales sobre las que se basan los aspectos sociales y culturales de la realidad. Desde esta perspectiva conceptual se sugiere que el conocimiento se desarrolla en cuatro aspectos de la realidad humana: nuestro entorno natural descrito por las ciencias naturales físicas y químicas; nuestra corporalidad descrita por las ciencias de la vida como la biología y la medicina; nuestro mundo interno de experiencias subjetivas descritas por investigaciones fundamentadas fenomenológicamente y, nuestro mundo social descrito por las ciencias sociales. Llamo a este modelo alternativo a la jerarquía positivista la estrella cibersemiótica. Este capítulo explica entonces el nuevo entendimiento de la Wissenschaft [ciencia] que emerge de las concepciones de Peirce y Luhmann.
Capítulo 8. La teoría de la comunicología: el método de la fenomenología semiótica
Authors: Lanigan Richard L.
Published: July 2023

La Comunicología es la ciencia de la comunicación humana. Tras casi cien años de desarrollo, el concepto moderno de comunicación se ha convertido en una disciplina formal de las ciencias humanas. Utiliza los métodos de investigación basados en la lógica de la semiótica y la fenomenología para explicar la conciencia y el comportamiento humanos como discurso dentro de la cultura global. Comenzando en el siglo XX con Edmund Husserl y Charles S. Peirce, se desarrolla hasta la actualidad a partir de la aplicación de la teoría y la práctica de autores como Roman Jakobson, Jürgen Ruesch y Gregory Bateson en áreas como la comunicología intrapersonal, interpersonal, grupal y cultural en todo el mundo. La teoría comparativa abarca la complejidad de los sistemas humanos, de las máquinas y de los animales. Por lo tanto, este capítulo centra su atención en los fundamentos conceptuales de la comunicología.

Malnutrition is major public health problem in developing countries causing higher morbidity and mortality among children. The present study described nutritional status and related factors among primary school children in Mangalore so as to plan and provide basis to health care providers and policy makers to develop strategy and prevent malnutrition. This study included a total of 110 school children from class 5, 6 and 7 from the primary school situated in Mangalore City. The students were assessed for knowledge, attitude, enabling factors and reinforcing factors towards the nutrition through a questionnaire. Nutritional status of the children was determined by anthropometric Measurements and classified according to the degree of malnutrition based on Gomez standard of classification (weight- for- age) and Water low’s classification (height- for- age). Majority of the children were malnourished (82.73%) and most of the children were moderately malnourished (43.64%). Only 20% of the children had adequate nutritional knowledge and good attitude was observed only in 13.64% of the children. Boys constituted 51.82% of the study population and boy to girl ratio was 1.07:1. Most of the children were aged 11 years (34.55%) and the mean age was 11 ± 1 years. First birth order was noted among 34.55% of the children. The money spent for snacking was between one to five rupees in 54.55% and 38.18% of the children had two times snacking a day. Majority of the children lived with their parents (93.64%). With regard to parents educations and occupation, 57.27% of the parents (both father and mother) were educated upto elementary school and were labours (Father 78.18% and mother 75.45%). The average monthly income was between Rs. 1,000 to 5,000 in 47.27% of the children Majority of the children (69.09%) had > 5 family members and 39.09% of the children had no siblings Almost all the children (99.09%) were aware about health awareness programme and 97.27% were aware about food supplementary support programme in schools. Positive association was found between nutritional status and attitude towards the nutrition (p=0.004), age (p<0.001), mothers education (p=0.002) and father’s education (p=0.016). There is high prevalence of malnutrition among the school children of study area aged between 9 to 13 years. Initiatives towards the increasing awareness of nutrition in children may help to reduce the burden of malnutrition among these children.

Bahasa Arab Sebagai Identitas Budaya Islam dan Pemersatu Keberagaman Suku
Authors: Al Yamin Daud Lintang
Published: July 2023

Arabic as a language that grows and develops in Arab countries, especially in the Middle East region. In essence, it is the language of religion and the language of unity for Muslims throughout the world. It was in this language that the Muslim holy book Al-Qur'an was revealed, and with it the Prophet Muhammad carried out his service to humanity. Because of this, in its development the Arabic language was named an international language by the United Nations on December 18, 1973 in recognition of its role and consistency as the language of culture and the unity of the people. The coronation is also a sign that Arabic is also actively used as a regular medium of communication in the association of nations at all levels. For this reason, Arabic cannot be separated from Islam, whose mission is power over the diversity of people. Aside from being a regulation of life, it is also a guideline for modern civilization. This can be seen vertically where the worship of a Muslim will not be valid if it is spoken in other than Arabic. And horizontally, Arabic is a language that has a diction of noble meaning and glorifies one another.
Therefore, as long as this language is the obligatory language of a Muslim, then its role is unquestionable as a unifying language and strengthening brotherhood between individuals and groups.

The development of ICT (Information, communication, & technology requires teachers to innovate and align themselves with technological developments. The teacher's ability to apply technology in learning can be seen through the teacher's TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge). TPACK is a theoretical framework that integrates technology, pedagogic , and subject matter in learning. This article aims to examine the elements of TPACK and its application in learning Arabic. This research is a qualitative type of research through literature study. The research stages were carried out by collecting library sources, both primary and secondary. This study carried out classification data based on research formulas TPACK is very helpful in teaching Arabic skills, because technology can complement teaching and make teaching more meaningful and interactive The implementation of TPACK in teaching Arabic skills is different for each teacher, this is influenced by the teacher's ability to master the seven components of TPACK . The more optimal the Arabic language teacher is in exploring and adding to their abilities, knowledge, and insights regarding both Arabic and TPACK, the better the teaching will be

Introduction: The investigation of hemorrhagic demyelinating cerebral lesions is challenging with diverse etiologies. We report a case of varicella zoster virus (VZV) infection with prominent hemorrhagic demyelinating component and systemic thrombosis. Objectives: Describe a case of hemorrhagic demyelinating lesions and systemic thrombosis secondary to varicella zoster central nervous system infection. Case report: A 45-year-old man presented with a one-week history of left leg strength loss associated with pyramidal liberation on the left side. Brain MRI showed two expansive hemorrhagic lesions, in the frontoparietal lobe and in the cingulate gyrus region. There were T2/FLAIR hypersignal in the subcortical area of both cerebral hemispheres and in the cervical cord, suggestive of demyelination. His arterial magnetic resonance imaging with vessel wall imaging showed focal tapering on the pial branches of the middle cerebral artery, but his digital angiography showed no abnormalities. The lumbar puncture had 8 cells, (lymphocyte predominance), 52 proteins/ dL, and 53 mg/dL of glucose. In two days, he developed a left side hemiplegia associated with seizures and pulmonary thromboembolism, demanding lung mechanical thrombectomy and anticoagulation. He had a positive lupus anticoagulant and a positive VZV IgG in the cerebrospinal fluid associated with positive oligoclonal bands. He received intravenous acyclovir with complete resolution of the symptoms. Conclusion: The clinical manifestations of VZV infection are wide, and we should suspect of this infection in patients with central nervous system demyelinating lesions, even without other skin lesions.

Published: July 2023

Introduction: Multiple myeloma (MM) commonly appears after the age of 50, corresponding to 1% of all cancers. Symptoms such as renal failure and hypercalcemia are usually the initial manifestations of the disease. Involvement of the central nervous system (CNS) it´s rare and a marker of poor prognosis. We report a young patient opening the MM with an initial manifestation that is rare in the CNS literature. Case report: Male, 38 years old, previously healthy, admitted for holocranial and progressive headache for 1 month and visual blurring and mental confusion started two days before admission. On examination we evidenced papilledema and negative myoclonus in the 4 limbs and neck. Brain computed tomography, arterial and venous angioMRI were normal. Cerebrospinal fluid puncture show increased opening pressure (32 cm H2 O) and biochemical analysis was normal. Laboratory tests showed 24-hour proteinuria in the nephrotic range (3 g), microcytic hypochromic anemia and reduced creatine clearance (48,8 mL/min — Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration). Contrast brain and orbits magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) presented thickening of the meninges and bone infiltration, suggestive of lymphoproliferative or hematologic disease. MRI of the spine (cervical and thoracic), thorax and abdomen showed signs of diffuse bone infiltration. HMM was confirmed by electrophoresis of proteins with expressive peak of gamma globulin (43%, VR 11,1–18%). Dexamethasone (4 mg 6/6 hour for three days) was administered, with complete resolution of mental confusion and headache. The patient was followed up with hematology to start chemotherapy. Conclusion: We report a rare case of MM that started with predominantly neurological manifestations which responded very well to corticosteroid therapy in low doses after few days. This case illustrates how intracranial hypertension in a young patient requires extensive investigation for possible rarer differential diagnoses when initial tests are normal.

Published: July 2023

Stroke is the second leading cause of death and the primary cause of disability in Brazil. Ischemia resulting from a stroke triggers an inflammatory response in the central nervous system, primarily mediated by neutrophils, lymphocytes, and macrophages. Recent research suggests that the neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in peripheral blood can serve as a reliable marker of systemic inflammation in various diseases. The present study aims to quantify the NLR in patients diagnosed with ischemic stroke, who received treatment at a specialized clinic of a university hospital situated in the central region of São Paulo. Additionally, the study aims to investigate if any correlation exists between NLR values and risk factors associated with ischemic stroke and its severity — assessed using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). This retrospective study is based on medical records of patients aged over 18 years, who had ischemic stroke between 2017 and 2022. The collection of clinical data includes information on the type of ischemic stroke and the presence of risk factors. The quantification of NLR is performed by analyzing blood count data from the patients’ medical records. Of the 194 stroke patients whose data were collected, 80.5% had NLR values exceeding 2, a value considered non-physiological by literature and preliminary data obtained from healthy individuals at the same university hospital. It was also observed that patients with a more severe condition, according to the NIHSS scale, had a higher NLR. However, no statistically significant correlation was found between NLR, types of stroke, and the presence of risk factors. In conclusion, stroke patients exhibit a higher neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, which is associated with the severity of the condition but not with risk factors. NLR can be a prognostic marker of stroke.

Published: July 2023

Case report: A previously healthy 60-year-old woman presented to the dermatology clinic for a deep phenol peeling. A few minutes after the procedure, she had become confused and disoriented, so the neurology clinic was called. On the neurological assessment, the patient kept asking her sister where she was and how she got to the hospital. It was noted that the patient had deep anterograde amnesia and retrograde amnesia ranging from a few hours before the arrival at the hospital, with preserved episodic and semantic memories. The remainder of the neurologic exam was normal. She was submitted to basic laboratory evaluation, which showed no abnormalities. Brain magnetic resonance imagin showed a mild FLAIR (Fluid-Attenuated Inversion Recovery) hyperintensity on the left medial temporal lobe, without signal alterations in the DWI (diffusion-weighted imaging) image. After about 4 hours of the onset, the disorientation had resolved and she was discharged after 24 hours of observation, asymptomatic. Discussion: Phenol peeling is the most aggressive of all peels, and as this substance is absorbed by the skin, metabolized by the liver, and excreted by urine it is associated with systemic complications, such as cardiac arrhythmias and acute kidney injury. There are no previous reports of the occurrence of a transient global amnesia (TGA) episode after such a procedure, although it is known that it can be precipitated by physical exertion and psychological stress. The pathophysiology of a TGA episode is thought to be related to metabolic stress to the CA-1 subfield of the hippocampus. Although the association is unclear, we can make an assumption that phenol could have a disruptive metabolic effect on this particular brain area. Conclusion: We report a case of TGA preceded by a deep phenol peeling. Although it is impossible to establish causality in this case, it is important that the neurologist be aware that certain medical conditions, procedures and substance administration can be associated with TGA.

Introduction: The dural arteriovenous fistulas (dVAFs) are a subtype of brain arteriovenous malformations. Our case displayed an atypical case of complex dVAFs secondary to PTEN mutation spectrum manifesting with cerebral venous thrombosis, intense venous hypertension and status epilepticus. Objetives/methods: Demonstrate that the clinical spectrum of PTEN mutation is heterogeneous and may involve patients without classic phenotypes presenting with atypical dVAFs. Results: A 30-year-old famale patient was admitted with acute impairment of consciousness and refractory status epilepticus. He had a past history of complex dVAFs, submitted to multiple embolizations. Her admission MRI showed dVAFs in the transverse and sigmoid sinus associated with cerebral venous thrombosis of Rosenthal’s basal vein causing venous congestion. She underwent four new embolizations, in addition to surgical disconnection of the venous drainage, but remained in a minimal state of consciousness. To elucidate the genetic mechanism behind the clinical phenotype, the exome showed a heterozygous mutation in PTEN c.932_933insA. Conclusion: It is inferred that the coexistence of refractory and recurrent dVAFs is due to the existence of dormant channels between the dural arteries and the sinuses, which open when the sinus is occluded and venous pressure increases, or that venous hypertension causes hypoxia and production of angiogenic factors. In our patient, changes in angiogenic factors may be responsible for dVAFs, as in some patients with PTEN mutation. There are few case reports in the literature that show the correlation of patients with the PTEN genotype with arteriovenous fistulas without other systemic manifestations.

Introduction: Tubular aggregate myopathy is a rare and an inherited disorder and, differently from metabolic myopathies, is characterized by slowly progressive proximal muscle weakness, cramps and myalgia. The aim to describe an uncommon presentation with rhabdomyolysis overlapping with a tubular aggregate myopathy in elderly men. Case: A 76-year-old male with acute symmetrical inferior limbs weakness and pain. No previous history of muscle weakness. Denied alcohol intake, prior exercise intolerance, fatigue, myoglobinuria, ptosis, or pigmenturia, as well as worsening after periods of fasting. History of systemic arterial hypertension and dyslipidemia. He had been treated with the same dose of simvastatin and antihypertensives. Furthermore, no relevant familial history of consanguinity. Results: On examination, the strength of proximal inferior limbs graded MRC grade IV. Neoplastic, infectious, rheumatological, and endocrinology diseases were ruled out. Initial CK = 6.719U/L. Muscle magnetic resonance imaging revealed a heterogeneous edema pattern, with predominant proximal impairment. No evidence of atrophy was detected. Statins were promptly withdrawn. After 5 to 7 days, creatine phosphokinase lowered to normal level and muscle biopsy confirmed tubular aggregates myopathy. There was a complete improvement of muscle weakness after 30 days. Discussion: Tubular aggregate myopathy is a rare disorder of unknown prevalence. The symptoms and severity are widely heterogeneous, and the diagnosis is based on a history of progressive loss of strength and/or muscle pains, muscle biopsy revealing tubular aggregates, and absence of another neuromuscular disease. This disease can present as a pseudo metabolic feature, without progressive weakness, mimicking the metabolic myopathies.

This study aimed to develop an extruded protein snack added to lentil flour (L) and textured soy protein (S) and to evaluate the developed formulations sensorially, physicochemically, and physically. Five formulations were prepared: C (100% flour corn (C)), S40% (60% flour corn and 40% soybean), LS20% (80% flour corn, 15% soybean, and 5% lentil), LS15% (85% corn, 7.5% soybean, and 7.5% lentil), and LS10% (90% corn, 7% soybean, and 3% lentil). The research was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Universidade de Passo Fundo (55484622.2.0000.5342). Seventy untrained tasters participated in the acceptance test, where the LS15% and LS10% formulations were the most accepted (83.5 and 80.2%, respectively). In the physicochemical characterization, it was observed that all formulations improve nutritional quality, with a significant increase in protein content (11–23%) in all formulations. Physically, the formulations with corn replacement rates showed higher resistance and lower crunchiness. Furthermore, all formulations showed higher water activity (0.55–0.61 aw) than the standard sample (0.34 aw). Therefore, the incorporation of lentils and soy flours benefited the nutritional quality of the snacks but negatively affected their physical parameters and sensory acceptability.

Analysis of the relevance of the location of quarrying surfaces by using a multi-criteria decision support tool taking into account the sustainable territorial development (Case of Settat – Morocco)
Authors: Hattabi Said , Amellal Issam , Maataoui Souad
Published: July 2023

The cohabitation between the material extraction activity and its receiving environment requires a conciliation between the three dimensions of sustainable development, namely the economic, social and environmental aspects. Given that the reasons for the existence of this extractive industry are economic, it feeds the pillar sectors of the economy (civil engineering, buildings ...) or, social it creates employment and contributes significantly to the revenue of local communities through taxes but it has disadvantages on the receiving ecosystem. The problem is to know how to make this sector a vector of economic development without compromising the environment in order to guarantee and ensure simultaneously economic growth and social equity and environmental protection and to make the territory more attractive and sustainable to investments in this field. Therefore, it has become necessary to take into account these three pillars when locating this activity. The said location is an essential decision, the fact of favoring one of the three aspects over the other aspects will undoubtedly have consequences on the environment where the activity is hosted (either more positive or more negative, conditioned by its choice). Indeed, the choice of quarry sites is a multi-criteria issue since we must reconcile the three imperatives of sustainable development which are often contradictory. In this sense this work has opted for a decision-making approach designed from a decision-making tool process of hierarchical analysis (AHP), said approach is based on the three axes of sustainable development (economic, social and environmental) which are subdivided into 16 criteria and apply on options (15 careers). The choice of criteria families, criteria and options was made while respecting the imperatives of sustainable development and according to their distributions and typologies at the level of the study area. Once these decision elements were identified, the attractiveness of the options on each criterion was evaluated, weighted according to the concerns and preferences presented by the decisionmakers and then aggregated by the AHP method in order to produce a hierarchy of the criteria and options. The implementation of this method allows for the evaluation of existing quarry operations in the study area and the forecasting of future optimization of quarry facilities

The Government of Ethiopia is trying to improve sugar industry sector by establishing new factories, expansion projects and rehabilitation of existing ones. The main input in this process is agricultural mechanization; however it has been resulted in a huge number of farm machinery of various types and sizes, without consideration of proper selection and matching between tractors and their attachments (implements). This approach had led to high cost of agricultural operation, resulted in an unbalanced distribution of machinery and the agricultural operations throughout the years. Wonji Shoa Sugar factory is one of the victims of the aforementioned problem. The present study was conducted to evaluate the current farm machinery selection practices of Wonji Shoa Sugar Factory. Three soil types namely; heavy clay, vertisol and sandy loam were selected with four field activities (subsoiling, ploughing, harrowing and furrowing). For subsoiling, ploughing and harrowing, 9410-R John Deer tractor with implements of 5 shank and 3.2 m wide mounted subsoiler, 2.8 m wide double gang offset disc plough, and 3.5 m wide semi mounted four gangs double offset were used respectively. For furrowing YTO-1804 tractor and a four bottom fully mounted 4.5 m wide rider was used. For each experiment, the draft force requirement of the implements, the drawbar power, fuel consumption, overall energy efficiency and power utilization ratio were determined at different tractor travel speeds. Subsoiling, ploughing and harrowing were activities were evaluated at the travel speed of w 3, 4, 5 and 6 km/hr. And a travel speed of 4, 5, 6 and 7 km/hr were used for furrowing operation. Linear regression tests were run to examine the interactions between the factors and determine their significant impact. The results of this study noted for furrowing operation as lowest draft force, drawbar power, fuel consumption and energy efficiency of 14 kN, 12.65kW, 13 lit/hr and 8.7 % respectively in sandy loam soil type. The maximum Draft force of 79.8 kW and drawbar power of 131 kW was noted for subsoiling operation in Heavy clay soil. Moreover the results of all operation in all soil type, as indicated by both overall energy efficiency and power utilization factor shows the mismatch between the tractor and implements, as the tractors were overpowered. That means a less amount of the available power from the tractor is being used to operate the implement. If the tractor had been matched with a bigger and compatible implement a better efficiency and higher productivity of the tractor implement combination could have been achieved.
Caste Reservation Politics in Rajasthan: With Special Reference to Ashok Gehlot's Tenure

Published: July 2023

The fundamental element of the political system of Rajasthan is the interrelationship between the social structure and the political system. In a state like Rajasthan where there has been little modernization, caste orientation is its important feature, the caste structure is used by the political leadership for an effective and stable political system. If we look at the practical nature of Rajasthan's politics and assess it from the first general election, then it is clear that gradually the political ideals and principles became less important in the parties, then the basis of leadership increased on casteism. After the integration and creation of the princely states, it was unbearable for the feudatories to lose power, so they tried to get power through the democratic way by taking the Rajput caste along with them. In the first assembly elections, the maximum number of 54 Rajputs were elected in the house of 160 members, 22 Brahmins, 12 Jats, 15 Vaishyas, 10 Scheduled Castes and 6 Tribes, 2 Muslims and 39 belonged to other castes.

Abstract in Hindi Language:

राजस्थान की राजनीतिक प्रणाली का आधारभूत तत्व सामाजिक संरचना एवं राजनीतिक पद्धति के मध्य अंतर्सम्बन्ध है। राजस्थान जैसे राज्य में जहां बहुत कम आधुनिकीकरण हुआ है, जातिगत झुकाव ही इसकी महत्वपूर्ण विशेषता है, राजनीतिक नेतृत्व द्वारा प्रभावशाली व स्थायी राजनीतिक पद्धति के लिए जातिगत संरचना का उपयोग किया जाता है। यदि राजस्थान की राजनीति का व्यवहारिक स्वरूप देखें और प्रथम आमचुनाव से आकलन किया जाए तो स्पष्ट होता है कि शनैः-शनैः दलों में राजनीतिक आदर्श तथा सिद्धांत महत्वहीन होते चले गए तो नेतृत्व का आधार जातिवाद पर बढ़ता गया। रियासतों के एकीकरण तथा निर्माण के पश्चात् सामंतों के लिए सत्ताच्यूत होना असहनीय था अतः उन्होंने राजपूत जाति को साथ लेकर लोकतांत्रिक मार्ग से सत्ता प्राप्ति का प्रयत्न किया। प्रथम विधानसभा चुनाव में 160 सदस्यों के सदन मंे सर्वाधिक 54 राजपूत निर्वाचन हुए, 22 ब्राह्मण, 12 जाट, 15 वैश्य, अनुसूचित जाति के 10 तथा जनजाति के 6, 2 मुस्लिम एवं 39 अन्य जातियों से संबंधित थे।
