The Ethics of Thinking Psychoanalysis Beyond Europe
Authors: Dwivedi Divya ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: October 2024

Psychoanalysis cannot be excluded from questions of psyche, health, and society in medical care and medical ethics. But can psychoanalysis be conceived as a therapeutic possibility beyond Europe? The ethics of thinking psychoanalysis beyond Europe must first confront the abnegated cartography of Europe and its beyond and do so without confining itself to the colonial moment. It must also confront the politics of the circuits that psychoanalysis has already inhabited. Such an ethic must confront caste as the continent—to indulge in the old witz—neither dark nor unconscious and yet hidden in plain sight both in Indian and European psychoanalysis. Unlike the unnameable Latin America that Derrida felt compelled in 1981 to name within psychoanalysis in the name of ethics, we will have to confront the politics of other hidden names—India, Orient, “Aryan”—that swarm around this unnamed “caste” in the history, and possibly the future, of psychoanalysis.

Դոհայի համաձայնագիրը ԱՄՆ–Աֆղանստան հարաբերություններում նոր շրջափուլի թևակոխման սկիզբ / The Doha Agreement as the Beginning of a New Period in US-Afghanistan Relations
Authors: Matevosyan Harutun A.
Published: October 2024

On February 29, 2020, the United States and the Taliban signed an agreement to establish peace in Afghanistan, which became widely known as the Doha Agreement. This agreement marked the end of one of the largest and bloodiest conflicts of the 21st century, the Afghan Civil War. The Doha Agreement is crucial to consider within the context of Afghan transitions, as well as the signing and content of the agreement itself, which became a turning point for the future of Afghanistan and its people, signaling the end of the long-standing presence of American and coalition forces in Afghanistan. The Doha Agreement is based on four key points: the withdrawal of American and coalition forces, the Taliban's commitment to conduct counter-terrorism operations, the initiation of intra-Afghan negotiations, and the establishment of a comprehensive and long-lasting peace. The Doha Agreement became a turning point in U.S. foreign policy, though it did not lead to long-term peace in Afghanistan. Nevertheless, it marked the beginning of a reevaluation of U.S. foreign policy in the Indo-Pacific region. On the other hand, the agreement is also significant because the U.S. engaged in peace negotiations and signed an agreement with the Sunni extremist group known as the Taliban, which, to this day, it does not recognize as the official ruling force in Afghanistan.

Exploring Sindhi Parents’ Preference of Communicating with Children in English at Home: A Case Study of Sindhi Families Based in Karachi South
Authors: Farzana  , Asadullah Lashari
Published: October 2024

This study aims to focus on a class of Sindhi’s parents’ population that communicate with their children in English language at home. The participants for the study were 10 Sindhi’s parents comprising both male and female who have children aged from 1 to 8 years based in Clifton, Zamzama, and DHA, Karachi. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach. The data was collected through open-ended interviews and the personal observation of the researchers. The result shows English as a preferred language according to the parents’ belief that it will help their children not only get admission in the prestigious schools but ultimately will receive higher education in Pakistan and abroad and eventually get highly paid jobs and settlement anywhere in the world. This study is based on Pierre Bourdieu’s (1977) theory of habitus focusing on its field (capital) and doxa, their internal belief that is related to parents’ expectations that early acquisition of English language helps their kids to achieve both cultural and symbolic capital which provide positive results in achieving the Institutionalized, embodied, and objectified habitus.
Characteristics of Diseases in Developing Countries
Authors: Snur Othman
Published: October 2024

In the urgent realm of global health, it is imperative to acknowledge and promptly address the distinct characteristics of diseases that afflict developing countries. These nations face a unique set of challenges that contribute to the burden of illness and significantly impact the quality of life for their populations. By promptly exploring the key features of diseases in developing countries, we can better understand the complex interplay between socioeconomic factors and health outcomes [1].
One of the primary characteristics of diseases in developing countries is their disproportionate impact on vulnerable populations. Socio-economic disparities, limited access to healthcare, inadequate sanitation infrastructure, and poor nutrition contribute to the heightened susceptibility of marginalized communities to preventable infectious diseases such as hydatid cysts, malaria, tuberculosis, and diarrheal illnesses. The lack of resources and infrastructure further exacerbates the spread of these diseases, creating a cycle of sickness and poverty [2,3].
Furthermore, the prevalence of neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) is a defining feature of the disease landscape in developing countries. These illnesses, which include dengue fever, Chagas disease, and schistosomiasis, predominantly affect populations in low-resource settings and often go unnoticed on the global health agenda. The burden of NTDs is compounded by limited funding for research and treatment, leaving affected communities without adequate support and interventions [4].
In addition to infectious diseases, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are on the rise in developing countries, posing a dual burden of illness alongside contagious diseases. Factors such as urbanization, lifestyle changes, and an aging population contribute to the increasing prevalence of conditions like cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and cancer. The inadequate healthcare infrastructure in many developing countries further hinders NCDs' prevention, diagnosis, and management, leading to poorer health outcomes for those affected [5].
Addressing the characteristics of diseases in developing countries requires a multi-faceted approach that encompasses strengthening the healthcare system, investing in public health infrastructure, and, most importantly, providing equitable access to essential medicines. By ensuring fair access to these medicines, we can work towards achieving health equity and reducing the burden of disease in developing countries.

Implementation of the YOLO Method for Detection of Human Emotions Based on Facial Mimics
Authors: Felison Thomas , Firtan Erwin conery , Steven Steven , Chandra Willyam , Siregar Saut Dohot
Published: October 2024

Emotion detection through facial expression recognition plays an important role in everyday life, such as how to respond correctly to emotional expressions in social interactions, so that you can establish and build verbal or nonverbal communication with other people and so on. Facial expressions are facial changes in response to a person's emotional state, intentions, or social communication. Face detection is the first step that must be taken in facial analysis, including facial expression recognition. There are many methods that can be used to carry out the face detection process, such as the YOLO method. This YOLO method reframes object detection as a single regression problem, directly from image pixels to bounding box coordinates and class probabilities. By using the YOLO method, the process only needs to look once at the input image, to predict what objects are in the image and where those objects are. Based on the results of the tests carried out, the YOLO method can be used to detect human facial expressions with a success rate of 80%, with neutral, surprise and disgust facial expressions having a good level of accuracy and fear facial expressions having a poor accuracy level. The YOLO method is able to detect facial expressions of humans who wear accessories such as glasses.

The Role of International Normalized Ratio (INR) in Heart Failure Patient With Sepsis: Hidden in Plain Sight
Authors: Sakti Pradhika Perdana
Published: October 2024

Heart failure is a clinical syndrome characterized by symptoms and signs caused by a structural and/or functional impairment of the heart. Sepsis in heart failure may cause significant mortality and morbidity rates. Clinically, the presence of heart dysfunction in heart failure worsens outcomes in unstable hemodynamic conditions, for instance, in cases of sepsis, particularly in patients with HFrEF. This research aims to survey the blend of heart failure and sepsis and current updates regarding using the International Normalized Ratio (INR) to detect sepsis. Information was collected from various sources, and updated literature was compiled into a review article. The presence of heart failure with sepsis is associated with horrible clinical results. If fluid alone is insufficient to restore perfusion, the fundamental structure of sepsis includes strong fluid recovery followed by vasopressor association (and possibly inotropic support). In any case, in patients with heart failure, high-portion fluid boluses and vasoactive experts might deteriorate the condition. Heart failure and sepsis can overlap and lead to hemodynamic disturbances and challenging treatment. Meanwhile, aggressive fluid resuscitation is necessary for sepsis; conventional heart failure management requires reducing fluid intake. The International Normalized Ratio (INR) is one of the coagulation parameters that may help determine sepsis in patients with heart failure, thus improving appropriate diagnosis and treatment.
Enhancing Network Management Practices in East Africa: A Comprehensive Review
Authors:   School of Mathematics and Computing, Kampala International University Main Campus, Uganda, Arinze Echegu Darlington
Published: October 2024

Network management is an integral component of the region’s rapid urbanisation, huge population growth, and technological advancements in East Africa. However, the smooth operation of East African networks is hindered by inadequate infrastructure, complex rules, and cyber-security issues. Both conventional and contemporary technologies are included in the regional network architecture, with mobile networks and fibre optic cables predominating. Among the difficulties are issues with spectrum distribution and regulatory discrepancies, and network management methods differ greatly between carriers. Strategies such as Kenya’s National Optic Fibre Backbone Infrastructure and Rwanda’s Smart Kigali programme are successful initiatives that demonstrate effective ways to develop infrastructure and urban management. Particularly inventive models such as Uganda’s Village Phone programme and Kenya’s M-PESA platform create digital inclusion and economic power. Public-private partnerships facilitate infrastructure development and technology adoption. Network management strategies for Eastern Africa could include the development of rural connectivity projects, policy change for regulatory harmonisation, the use of advanced technologies, capacity-building programmes, and cross-border interactions. This review examines the situation of mobile networks, internet connections, and data centres, as well as other telecommunication network infrastructure, focusing on their existing strong points, weaknesses, and possibilities for further enhancement. Analysing systems of regulations: We used all recently published material (2004–2014) from various highly reliable databases. The findings suggest that adequate measures of network management are required to propel economic growth, digital inclusion, and deeper regional cooperation in East Africa. East African nations may utilise several strategies such as infrastructure development, legislative reforms, technology adoption, capacity building, and collaboration to produce reliable and inclusive communication networks, which will contribute to sustainable development.

Published: October 2024

This paper examines the role of arts programs in improving health outcomes across psychological, physiological, and social dimensions. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature, theoretical frameworks, and methodologies, we evaluate the diverse ways in which arts engagement positively impacts well-being. While evidence demonstrates that arts-based interventions can enhance mental health, reduce stress, and promote social cohesion, significant variations in findings indicate the need for a more standardized evaluation approach. This review also highlights policy implications, suggesting the integration of arts into public health strategies as a cost-effective, community-centered approach to improving well-being. A critical perspective is maintained throughout, emphasizing both the potential and limitations of arts programs in health promotion. Keywords: Arts in health, Health outcomes, Arts-based interventions, Well-being, Public health.

Terorrism of the Irish Republican Army
Authors: Bursać Boris , Tančić Dragan
Published: October 2024

The Irish Republican Army (IRA) is one of the most renowned and long-standing terrorist organizations in modern history. Founded in the early 20th century, this group employed various forms of violence and terrorism to achieve its political goals. This paper analyzes the evolution of the IRA, its tactics, ideology, and impact on the political landscape of Ireland and beyond. Through the examination of historical sources, documents, and secondary literature, the study provides a comprehensive overview of the IRA's development from its establishment in 1919, through the period known as "The Troubles" in the late 20th century, to its eventual split into several factions and the ceasefires of the 1990s. Human history is marked by various forms of terrorist activities, and terrorism can be seen as a characteristic of nearly all epochs of human civilization. This era, in particular, is marked by ethno-separatist terrorism, making the explanation of this type of terrorism and the depiction of the history of the conflict in Ireland, with a special focus on the origin, goals, methods, and structure of the IRA and its long-standing terrorist activities in Northern Ireland, the central theme of this academic paper. The conclusion emphasizes the significance of the IRA in the context of Ireland's struggle for independence and its long-term impact on the peace process in Northern Ireland. It also examines how the IRA's experience can contribute to a better understanding of the phenomenon of political violence and terrorism in the contemporary world. This paper provides a thorough analysis that may serve as a foundation for further research in the fields of political violence, terrorism, and peace processes.
Artistic image of the division in the Serbian people in the 20th and 21st centuries: Projection of ideas, causes and conditions of division in the prose and poetry of Radomir Stojanović
Authors: Mumović Ana
Published: October 2024

The work on the example of stories from the collection Duša doma (Soul of home) and poetry by Radomir Stojanović, in the light of the Book about Tito by Dobrica Ćosić and the autopoetic comments of Dragomir Kostić "While the book was in print", reveals the projection of the truth about Serbian divisions into us and them in the 20th and 21st centuries and the attitude of Serbs towards history as reality. Also, we list important historical facts that are a necessary condition to understand the suffering fate of the Serbian people in Kosovo and Metohija, as well as conflicts within the Serbian people, which were certainly caused by major historical events. The focus of the analysis is focused on the relationship between us and others within the same nation, that is, the ideological divisions caused by the divisions during and after the Second World War in Serbia. This is a condition to look deeper and understand the nature and essence of the connection and relationship and the division between us and others and/or ours and others, not only between Serbs and Albanians. The very science of literature implies that we always understand art as a type of "cognitive instrument by means of which the truths about the human being are revealed." From an analytical review of the projection of artistic ideas and images of Radomir Stojanović and Dragomir Kostić, in the light of the great thinker of history Dobrica Ćosić and his projections of Titoism, the work brings several magisterial conclusions. They are a contribution to a new reading and interpretation of the artist's work and the relationship to the theme of us and others and the division of us and us within the Serbian people.
Two-year trend of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Authors: Alihodžić Hajriz , Jevtić-Drkić Tatjana
Published: October 2024

Introduction: Participation in the research under the auspices of the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) collected available data on out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) for 2016 and 2017 from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Methods: We invited all emergency medical services to voluntarily participate in collecting OHCA data from 2015 to 2017 in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH). We received descriptive data on the most important elements of the latest Utstein template recommendations for 2016 and 2017 from the Sarajevo Canton and Tuzla. Results: The research in BiH in 2016 covered 417,498 people or 12.0% of the total population, and in 2017, 529,521 people or 15.0%. The annual incidence of OHCA treated by emergency medical services in BiH was 75.4 in 2016 and 65.0 per 100,000 inhabitants in 2017. The provision of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by bystanders was 2.9% in 2016 and 4.1% in 2017. Emergency medical services witnessed OHCA in 2.2% of patients in 2016 and 7.3% in 2017. Survival of OHCA to hospital discharge or 30-day survival of patients treated by emergency medical services in BiH was 12.7% in 2016 and 7.8% in 2017. Conclusion: We observed that there are no national or local registries of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in BiH in accordance with Utstein recommendations. The extremely low number of initiated CPR by bystanders affects the overall survival rate to hospital discharge and 30-day survival of patients.
EuReCa_Serbia 2014-2023: Analysis of data on non-starting of CPR in relation to time of day
Authors: Bandulaja Marina , Šušković-Bosančić Rajka , Medić Sara , Vasilić Milica , Ristić Jovana
Published: October 2024

Aim: The aim of this study was to determine a potential difference in the initiation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) based on the period of the day. The reason for this lies in the results of a few studies which implied that there is a significant difference in survival rates after day and night out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Material and methods: This study analyzed epidemiological data on OHCA from the EuReCa study, collected via the European Resuscitation Council (ERC) EuReCa ONE protocol. The dataset, covering October 1, 2014, to December 31, 2021, was created using data from 16 municipalities in Serbia, representing 24.13% of the population. Results: During the period 2014-2023 year, 10458 cases of OHCA were identified via EuReCa Serbia programme. In 4261 out of those 10458 cases (40,7%) CPR was initiated by a witness or an ambulance, and it remained uninitiated in 6192/10458 (59,2%) cases. After splitting one day into four 6-hours periods, we have noticed a statistically significant difference in the proportion of initiated vs. uninitiated CPR according to the period of the day. The biggest proportion of uninitiated CPR cases occurred during the period of 6 to 12 o'clock 2177/3440 (63,3%), while the smallest proportion happend between 18 and 24 o'clock 1251/2332 (53,6%). When looking into the connection between days in the week and working days comparing to weekend, we haven't established a statistically significant difference. Nevertheless, we did find one when investigating the proportion of initiated CPR cases compared to the season of the year. Conclusion: The proportion of initiated CPR cases is below the European average. We have concluded a statistically significant difference in the proportion of initiated vs. uninitiated CPR according to the period of the day. The biggest proportion of uninitiated CPR cases occurred during the period of 6 to 12 o'clock which is also the period with the highest frequency of OHCA. It is encouraging that despite many authors describing a lower survival rate after a night OHCA, we have found that the highest proportion of initiated CPR cases occurred during the night.
