Diagnostic Options for Postoperative Complications in Surgery
Authors: Solomakh Anatoly Anatolyevich , Gorbachenko Vladimir Ivanovich
Published: May 2023

Currently, scientific research is usually carried out in accordance with the postulates of evidence-based medicine in Russia and foreign countries. However, the implementation of these principles requires deep knowledge of surgery and mathematical modeling. Authors: a surgeon and a programmer developed mathematical models involved in the diagnosis of postoperative complications in surgery. In this paper, we investigated a deep, fully connected neural network for the diagnosis of postoperative complications on the clinical example of acute appendicitis. As a training set of parameters, we used a set developed by the authors on the basis of real clinical data, which has a state registration number in the form of a database, and includes a knowledge base. The interquantile range of the F1 measure is proposed for the selection of significant features. An approach to coding composite categorical features, characterized by a compact representation, is proposed. For pre-processing of training data, it is proposed to use a step-up autoencoder. The autoencoder converts the selected functions into a higher-dimensional space, which, according to Kover's theorem, facilitates the classification of features. The neural network is implemented using the Keras and TensorFlow libraries. To train the neural network, the Adam algorithm with adaptive learning speed is used. To reduce the effect of overfitting, a modern regularization method dropout-was used. The analysis and selection of the classifier quality metrics are carried out. To evaluate the characteristics of the neural network, k-block cross-validation was used. The trained neural network showed high diagnostic performance on the test data set.

Published: May 2023

The paper highlights a clinical case of a newly diagnosed Crohn's disease with extended involvement of the small intestine in a 63-year-old patient. The course of the disease was complicated by multiple acute ulcers with perforations and peritonitis; due to this the patient was repeatedly exposed to surgical interventions. As a result of a long-term inflammatory process in the abdominal cavity, the patient developed small intestinal fistulas on the remaining short small intestine. Surgical treatment was combined with a comprehensive conservative treatment of Crohn's disease, parenteral nutrition via an intravenous port, antibiotic therapy, infusion therapy, etc. The authors first applied an intraluminal duodenal endosponge with programmable vacuum aspiration. Complete duodenal obturation was successfully achieved. The use of this design has played a crucial part in the complex treatment of small intestinal fistulas in the presented patient.

Published: May 2023

Hepatolithiasis is a disease characterized by intrahepatic stone formation, being a challenging disorder with frequent recurrences, development of chronic cholangitis and sepsis, as well as liver abscesses. Notably, without prompt and adequate treatment, hepatolithiasis is associated with the development of cirrhosis of the liver and cholangiocellular carcinoma. Recent reports demonstrate an increasing prevalence of hepatolithiasis, likely due to increased immigration and alterations in the Western diet. There is no clear algorithm for treatment of hepatolithiasis; the major treatment options are still removal of stones, correction of strictures associated with them and prevention of recurrence of cholangitis. The method of choice for hepatolithiasis is endoscopic and percutaneous interventions, in case of their failure open operations are performed in different volumes. However, data on the effectiveness of interventions, frequency of complications and relapses vary significantly according to various researchers. The authors analyse data on the above issue.

Published: May 2023

Ventral hernias remain the most common surgical pathology, which occurs in 3-8% of the population or in 510-570 million people. The "gold standard" in the treatment of ventral hernias today remains the use of synthetic materials, and the main method of their treatment is nontensioning prosthetic hernioplasty according to the method of I.L. Lichtenstein, which is implemented in 70-90% of patients with inguinal hernias. The properties of endoprostheses, which in their physical and mechanical properties should be as close as possible to the tissues of the patient's body, have a great influence on the results of surgical treatment of this contingent of patients. To date, more than 160 names of mesh endoprostheses are used, which differ, including in biological and mechanical characteristics. The paper presents information about the differences between implants used in hernioplasty using the Lichtenstein method in strength, elasticity, cell size, types of weaving and chemical composition of mesh prostheses. The study showed that the properties of endoprostheses, in particular, their structure, type of polymer, structure of filaments, biodegradability, plasticity, inertia of the material and others have a great influence on the results of surgical treatment when performing hernioplasty using the Lichtenstein method. The comparative effectiveness of the application of the developed materials during hernioplasty of inguinal hernias should include, among other things, data on the properties of the implant material and the features of its modeling, the technique of the operation, the results of general clinical, immunological, ultrasound, radiological and histological research methods.

The new coronavirus was first reported in China and caused a widespread global outbreak of pneumonia that spread rapidly across this country and many other countries. Acute kidney injury is one of the important complications of COVID-19, which has been shown in some cases. Exploring the diagnostic features of biomarkers of kidney function in COVID-19 patients may lead to better patient management. We collected laboratory data from 206 people with confirmed COVID-19 disease and evaluated their renal biomarkers, Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN), and creatinine. The age range of the patients was almost 62 years old. The mean age in the dead patients and recovered patients was 71 and 54 years old, respectively. The average LDH value was 755 U/L, and creatine phosphokinase (CPK) was 267 U/L in the patients. The average BUN was 59.1 U/L, and creatinine was 1.5 U/L in COVID-2019 patients. Among all 193 patients, laboratory results revealed that 163 (85.4 %) patients had an elevated BUN level. Based on creatinine levels for total patients, laboratory results revealed that 49 (25.4 %) patients had an elevated value. The average BUN value in dead patients was 85 mg/dL, while in recovered patients was 40.5 mg/dL (P<0.0001). Also, the average creatinine level in dead patients was 1.86 mg/dL, while in recovered patients was 1.24 mg/dL (P=0.0004). Inflammation following COVID-19 disease causes kidney damage and elevated urea and creatinine levels, which may increase the risk of death in these patients.

Ovarian cancer management during pregnancy is a topic of limited research due to low occurrence rates of malignant adnexal tumors. To shed further light on this issue, we present a case series of 22 pregnant ovarian cancer patients referred to an academic hospital's gynecology oncology department over six years. Data on each patient's demographic and clinical background were collected using a registry software recording surgical tumor staging, disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS). According to the data analysis reports, subtype epithelial tumor and germ cell pathology were equally 45.4%. However, sex-cord tumors were observed in a smaller percentage of cases (9.1%). Serous adenocarcinoma was the most common subtype among those with epithelial tumors (60%). Meanwhile, 72.7% of these pregnant women had a palpable mass in physical examination. In addition, adnexal mass was detected in 95.4% of ultrasonography. Due to the young age of the patients, fertility-preserving surgery was performed on 63.6% of patients, and chemotherapy was prescripted on 59% of patients. Over a six-year follow-up period, there was a recurrence rate of 22.7%, while DFS and OS were reported as 56% and 82%, respectively. In conclusion, treatment of ovarian malignancies during pregnancy requires an experienced multidisciplinary approach. However, more extensive studies with larger samples are needed to gain more insight into the treatment of ovarian cancer during pregnancy.
Phosphodiesterase-5 Inhibitors as Therapeutics for Cardiovascular Diseases: A Brief Review
Authors: Corbic Milena , Sretenovic Jasmina , Zivkovic Vladimir , Jakovljevic Vladimir , Turnic Tamara Nikolic
Published: May 2023

Background: Three selective and most used inhibitors of PDE-5- sildenafil, vardenafil and tadalafil- have been successfully used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction and cardiovascular diseases might be considered as two dissimilar clinical signs of the identical systemic disease. PDE-5 inhibitors can through different models and mechanisms induce vasodilation, decrease apoptosis and cell proliferation, and they are widely present in various tissues that make them promising targets in a range of cardiovascular diseases.
 Methods: PubMed was explored to identify papers published from 1990-2019, presenting data for the most used PDE-5 inhibitors (sildenafil, tadalafil or vardenafil) in treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
 Results: This article analyses the therapeutic potentials of PDE-5 inhibitors in cardiovascular diseases and discusses mechanisms, possible risks and limitations. Comparable to earlier studies, newer studies suggest cardioprotective effects of PDE-5 inhibitors, which include different models and mechanisms and do not indicate an increased rate of significant cardiovascular adverse reactions. Dissimilarity in the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of PDE-5 inhibitors are significant to their risk- benefit profile and clinical use. Some of the studies suggesting infarct size reduction after PDE-5 inhibition described the especially close dose-effect relation, other studies dosage adaptation in drug- drug interactions.
 Conclusion: PDE-5 inhibitors indicate the encouraging useful effects by ischemia/reperfusion injury, myocardial infarction, cardiac hypertrophy, cardiomyopathy and systolic and diastolic congestive heart failure. Therefore, this and similar reviews can help for additional clinical targeting in the therapy of cardiovascular diseases.

Authors: Yu Jiale , Chun Buongo , Lee Dongjun , Rokni Ladan
Published: May 2023

Background: While people’s living standards are improving, the incidence of chronic diseases due to a lack of exercise is increasing. Complex health conditions (e.g., metabolic syndrome) are becoming common, and means to lower their incidence are essential.
Methods: This study systematically reviewed the literature and performed a meta-analysis on the effects of Baduanjin exercise on metabolic syndrome-related factors. Using four English databases and three Chinese databases, randomized controlled trials on the effects of Baduanjin exercise on metabolic syndrome were identified. We analyzed whether Baduanjin could alleviate various metabolic syndrome indicators according to our selection guidelines.
Results: We found that Baduanjin exercise had positive effects on blood pressure (systolic blood pressure: mean difference (MD)=-6.39; 95% confidence interval (CI): -9.86 to -2.92; I2=12%; diastolic blood pressure: MD=-2.86; 95% CI: -5.96 to -0.23; I2=35%; P=0.07) and total cholesterol (standardized mean (SMD)=-0.55; 95% CI: -1.11 to 0.02; I2=86%; P=0.06), triglyceride (SMD=-0.29; 95% CI: -1.13 to - 0.56; I2=94%; P<0.51), and low-density cholesterol (SMD =-0.33; 95% CI: -0.52 to -0.14; I2=0%; P<0.0007) levels.
Conclusion: This evidence shows that Baduanjin exercise provides beneficial effects by improving metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease in adults. This suggests that Baduanjin exercise could be an effective alternative or complementary approach to conventional treatments for adults with metabolic problems. Additionally, these findings suggest that more rigorous randomized control trials are needed in the future.
‘From Hygiene to Health’ in Modern Korea: A Narrative Review
Authors: Do Jae-Hak , Park Sam-Hun
Published: May 2023

Background: Previous research dealt with the concept of ‘hygiene’ in Korea, mainly regarding the modern transition summarized as ‘from regimen to hygiene’, has been based on qualitative research methods. However, because modern Korean language material had been constructed as a corpus with a considerable size, a quantitative approach based on language material has become possible. Through this, the provision of a new implication point can be received.
Methods: The Corpus of Modern Korean Magazines, which is a morph-tagged corpus constructed based on 20 kinds of original texts of modern magazines in Korea, was utilized. In this corpus, a list of the co-occurred words of ‘wisaeng [hygiene], yangsaeang [regimen], geongang [health], and cheonggyeol [cleanliness]’, importantly related to the concept of ‘modern hygiene’ and the strength of co-occurrence that was calculated with the t-score, were extracted and analyzed. 
Results: Through a quantitative analysis of the corpus base, it was confirmed that the number of the co-occurred words of ‘wisaeng [hygiene]’ decreases and the strength of the co-occurrence gets low.  In contrast, the number of the co-occurred words of ‘geongang [health]’ increases and the strength of the co-occurred words becomes heightened. 
Conclusion: Regarding the change after ‘from regimen to hygiene’, an analysis based on the corpus has been attempted. Through the quantitative data, the conversion into ‘from hygiene to health’ was confirmed. Research with such a method proves the need and the feasibility of quantitative research that supplements the previous qualitative analysis.

Published: May 2023

Background: Maternal anxiety has been accompanied by many unfavorable effects on breastfeeding in the postpartum period. We aimed to provide scientific evidence in identifying effective interventions for anxiety and breastfeeding self-efficacy (BSE) in a systematic review and meta-analysis.
 Methods: All published studies with inclusion criteria by 2022 were searched in Embase, Cochrane library, Web of Sciences, Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus, SID and Magiran. The literature search was performed using PRISMA instructions. Further, 20 eligible interventional studies (RCT and pre-posttest) and one case study were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis. Publication bias was checked with Eggers test and funnel plot methods. The collected data were analyzed using stata version16.
 Results: It is not possible to provide an explicit and accurate conclusion about the effective intervention method in reducing anxiety and increasing BSE among lactating women during the covid19 pandemic. The results indicated a significant increase in BSE among lactating women after educational and psychological interventions (4.20, 95% CI: 3.61 to 4.80, I2 = 26.38%).
Conclusion: It is recommended to conduct further studies with a strong methodology and based on intervention methods during the postpartum period, especially in the first month of birth to reduce the symptoms of stress and anxiety in the mother, establish better mother-child attachment, and improve BSE and maternal performance during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Published: May 2023

Background: Thalassemia is the most common inherited anemia in worldwide. Heart failure is the most common cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with major and intermedia β-thalassemia. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of oral administration of L-arginine on the improvement of systolic Pulmonary Artery Pressure (PAP) and cardiac function in patients with major and intermedia β-thalassemia.
Methods: This randomized clinical trial was done on 88 patients with β-thalassemia admitted to Ali Asghar Hospital, Tehran, Iran between 2020 and 2021. Echocardiography was performed for all the patients before the intervention. Afterwards, the patients were randomly divided into two groups of placebo and L-arginine. The patients underwent echocardiography after eight weeks and were compared with respect to the results.
Results: The mean blood transfusion interval was 20.21 d in the placebo group and 17.14 d in the L-arginine group (P=0.082). The results revealed no significant difference between the two groups regarding the mean levels of Hemoglobin (Hb) and ferritin, frequency of splenectomy. However, the mean PAP significantly decreased from 32.88 to 26.02 in the L-arginine group (P=0.009), but did not change in the placebo group. Nonetheless, no significant change was observed in the mean Ejection Fraction (EF) before and after L-arginine administration.
Conclusion: L-arginine administration prevented the increase of PAP and was effective in preventing cardiovascular disorders including increased systolic PAP in patients with major and intermedia B-thalassemia. However, the results have to be confirmed in further studies with larger sample sizes.
Association of hsa-miR‐5571-5p Expression with Clinicopathological Factors besides Identification of its Hub Target Genes and Key Pathway in Breast Cancer
Authors: Ghahfarokhi Mahshid Samie , Reiisi Somayeh , Zamanzadeh Zahra , Abkar Morteza
Published: May 2023

Background: miRNAs are small non-coding RNAs; regulate gene expression using RNA degradation or translation repression. Dysregulation of miRNAs is involved in the initiation and progression of many cancers. We aimed to determine the relationship between miR-5571-5p expression and clinical factors and regulatory mechanisms in breast cancer.
Methods: Histopathologic sections approximately with 25 microns thick from FFPE tissues were achievement of Al-Zahra Hospital (Isfahan, Iran) in 2020-2021 years by Pathologist. miR-5571-5p expression, determined using real-time PCR. For miRNA target genes prediction, integrated miRNA target prediction tools, were used. Gene ontology and KEGG pathway analysis were accomplished to identify the biological function. A PPI network was constructed to display key target genes. For hub genes validation, GEPIA databases were used.
Results: miR-5571-5p was upregulated in breast tumor tissues, and its increase was significantly related to a poor prognosis in breast cancer (P<0.0001). At first, 324 target genes were predicted, and then 110 genes with a decrease in expression were selected. GO analysis showed that genes were mainly enriched in the regulation of the ERBB2 and EGFR signaling pathway. KEGG pathway analysis suggested that downregulated genes were enriched in glioma, the ErbB signaling pathway, and breast cancer. Finally, the ten hub genes (EGF, PIK3R1, SOS1, PTEN, SHC1, CBLB, LIFR, LEP, PDE1C, and NT5C2) were detected from the PPI network.
Conclusion: miR-5571-5p up-regulation is associated with breast cancer progression and worse survival. The current study identified ten genes associated with breast cancer, which might help to provide candidate targets for the treatment.

Published: May 2023

One of the most important factors in economic, social, and cultural development is to create a development plan to acquire knowledge, and govern the spirit of learning in the society, leading to the strengthening of human capital, and increasing the quality of the educational system in accordance with the needs of economic, and social development.

Regarding this, and also based on the recognition of the importance of education in economic growth, economists, and economic development planners have paid special attention to the basics of resource allocation in the education sector.

Therefore, according to the fact that government expenditure on education can be an effective factor to encourage people to acquire knowledge, and improve their level of education, and on the other hand, based on the fact that the improvement of people's level of education in the society shows the increase of human capital in the country, which itself has a positive effect on the economic growth of the country, and the inequality reduction, this paper aims to investigate the effect of government expenditure on education on the enrollment rate in different educational levels in selected OECD countries from 2010 to 2019.

The results show that the effect of all coefficients of the variables is expected based on the theoretical foundations, and the government expenditure on education has a significant positive effect on the enrollment rate in the primary, secondary, and tertiary levels.

Published: May 2023

The European Union-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA), taking effect on August 2020,  was expected to bring strategic benefits for Vietnam with one of its largest and most important partners. However, the United Kingdom, a leading economy within the EU, was left the EU on the January of the same year. The new free trade aggrement between UK and Vietnam, known as UKVFTA, was signed with the hope to avoid missing any benefits that the EVFTA had promised. This paper aims to identify and analyze the impact of the two aggrements, EVFTA and UKFTA on Vietnam-EU’s and Vietnam-UK trades under the negative effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. A compehensive analysis of the trade between Vietnam and the two mentioned partners for two year before and two year after the agrrement was made to carry out the positive effects of the contracts. The secondary data were taken from the World Bank, ADB and Vietnam Office of Statistics. The results showed that, the two aggrements successfully brought about higher surpluses for Vietnam trade, despite the fact that the overall of Vietnam trade are mostly deficit during the four examined years. The results would be helpful to evaluate free trade agreements for overcoming the negative impact of the Covid-19 pandemic for Vietnam and other developing countries.

Published: May 2023

En este artículo se analiza el estado actual sobre la intervención del Motion Graphics como un recurso audiovisual en el modelo del flipped classroom. Se realiza un recorrido de varios estudios a nivel nacional e internacional, su aplicación del modelo de flipped classroom, y cuáles han buscado resolver el problema de comunicación en las piezas audiovisuales utilizadas en el flipped classroom con el recurso del motion graphics.

Este artículo permite reconocer que los recursos audiovisuales utilizados en el modelo de flipped classroom son elaborados con herramientas gratuitas o de facilidad uso. Algunos de los vídeos realizados por los docentes no son precisamente motion graphics, por lo que no han elaborado discursos narrativos ni estéticos que permitan aportar a la comprensión del contenido educativo. Otros docentes se han preocupado por la aceptación del estudiante, y han elaborado guiones y elementos gráficos compositivos para la construcción de piezas de motion graphics. Estas investigaciones permiten dar cuenta que el recurso audiovisual del motion graphics puede aportar al proceso de enseñanza – aprendizaje del estudiante en el modelo del flipped classroom, debido a que son recursos que generan mayor empatía en el espectador, y posibilita la creación de contenido, adaptado al mensaje y al sílabo de la asignatura.

Experimentos y posibilidades del dibujo en el trabajo etnográfico
Authors: IDROVO LANDY ISRAEL , EGAS LOAIZA SEBASTIÁN
Published: May 2023

El presente artículo reivindica el dibujo etnográfico y la experimentación antropológica como formas innovadoras para renovar la disciplina y, en última instancia, comprender mejor lo humano.

En tanto práctica a la vez corpórea, cognitiva, sensible y especulativa, pensamos el dibujo como potenciador de la etnografía tanto en elementos intrínsecos del trabajo de campo (observación participante, entrenamiento encarnado del etnógrafo, memoria y reflexividad…), como en lo referente a elementos que van más allá del trabajo de campo, que lo superan y proyectan (experiencias multisensoriales, imaginarios compartidos, especulaciones de futuro…).

Esta reflexión teórico-metodológica se afinca en un experimento académico de especulación, experimentación y colaboración etnográfica que desembocó en la obra Ficciones Australes Volumen 4: Ensayos especulativos sobre el futuro (Núñez & Idrovo, 2021) desarrollada por la Maestría en Antropología de lo Contemporáneo y el grupo de investigación KALEIDOS, Etnografía Interdisciplinaria de la Universidad de Cuenca.

Presentamos con este trabajo, un alegato a favor de la creatividad, la experimentación y los “tráficos” interdisciplinares, para complejizar, enriquecer y proyectar el quehacer antropológico.

Sobre la complejidad de los nuevos de medios de representación en el proceso creativo arquitectónico y la producción de las imágenes en artes digitales
Authors: MATEO LÓPEZ FELIPE
Published: May 2023

Existe desde antiguo una estrecha relación entre arte y arquitectura, el habitar en refugios, el arte rupestre y la geometrización del espacio mediante trazados dan cuenta que técnica y abstracción devienen de la observación de la naturaleza fundamentada en la organización y cualificación del espacio. Las imágenes en el contexto actual de las artes digitales respaldadas por los nuevos medios de representación y modelación requieren de una adaptación de la atención, desde la percepción a la observación, dada la velocidad en la proliferación y creciente complejidad de conceptos que establecen las propuestas, la existencia de una dimensión indeterminada en el proceso de gestación de las imágenes y su performatividad, la producción de meta-algoritmos y la inteligencia artificial decantan en la emergencia de nuevos procesos creativos y modos de habitar realidades virtuales, esto implica la demanda de nuevos criterios proyectuales por parte de artistas y arquitectos.

Published: May 2023

¿Qué ha sucedido en el ámbito escénico teatral en estos últimos años? Durante la pandemia se perdió la posibilidad de estar en contacto con el público, así que, las agrupaciones que pudieron, se rehicieron a través de la tecnología. Entraron a los hogares gracias a diferentes plataformas que volvieron íntimo el encuentro teatro-espectador. Como consecuencia y, gracias a los recursos tecnológicos, cada vez más, se presentan montajes presenciales, pero basados en productos híbridos. Por ello y más que nunca, es necesario que el artista escénico sepa canalizar los referentes analíticos del personaje en el que se encuentre trabajando, a través de su accionar, tren de pensamiento, manejo corpo-vocal y estímulos emocionales específicos. Porque lo más importante de un montaje escénico es el encuentro honesto, orgánico entre el actor y el personaje, sin olvidar que la autoexpresión, indispensable para el intérprete, es un proceso psicofísico y emocional que conlleva un resultado.

Published: May 2023

O presente artigo tem por objetivo compreender como se constitui, no olhar dos alunos de pós-graduação, a dicotomia da teoria e da prática na relação da formação e do trabalho do aluno de pós-graduação. Os sujeitos da pesquisa são alunos de pós-graduação de um mestrado profissional de uma universidade pública federal. Os alunos são todos trabalhadores e dedicam-se à formação em nível de pós-graduação, tendo como fim formativo a Gestão Universitária. Acreditamos que a relação da educação com os demais fenômenos sociais necessita ser desvelada historicamente e analisada criticamente, sustentada pela teoria. Ou seja, a teoria e a prática se inter-relacionam na concepção que toda teoria entra em um vazio social, caso não seja sustentada na prática e vice-versa.

Este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar a análise da trajetória e práticas de formação continuada da equipe gestora, no contexto da Educação Infantil da Rede Municipal de Educação (RME) de Ponta Grossa/PR, no período entre 2000 e 2020, a fim de evidenciar mudanças e permanências. A pesquisa foi realizada por meio de análise documental e entrevistas com 16 profissionais da Educação Infantil, atuantes em diferentes funções, períodos e regiões do município. A concepção de formação continuada apoia-se na sistematização coletiva do conhecimento (MARTINS, 1996) e na formação em contexto (OLIVEIRA-FORMOSINHO, 2016). Os resultados indicam: variadas formas e tentativas das equipes gestoras realizarem a formação continuada com os professores, em diferentes períodos, desde o momento em que a Secretaria Municipal de Educação assumiu a Educação Infantil; mudanças referentes à forma de realizar a formação continuada, pautada na adequação da estrutura física, logística de organização e número crescente dos profissionais da RME, porém, sem alteração da concepção de formação continuada.

O presente trabalho se organiza na forma de um ensaio que toma como base para suas reflexões uma análise da realidade política e social do Brasil nos últimos anos e seus possíveis impactos no processo de formação de sujeitos críticos e conscientes. Nessa seara, são feitas também discussões que abarcam a educação, a escola e a política no cotidiano escolar em uma perspectiva pedagógica que se baseia no conflito como ferramenta educativa, bem como o diálogo com autores como Paulo Freire (2011; 2020), Moacir Gadotti (2003), Miguel Arroyo (1997; 2005), Neidson Rodrigues (2003) e Boaventura de Sousa Santos (2009) com vistas a problematizar o processo educativo contemporâneo e as práticas docentes. Ao fim, sem qualquer pretensão de prescrever modelos a serem seguidos, o trabalho aponta as potencialidades de uma prática docente progressista e dos estudantes como atores envolvidos no processo.

Este artigo contempla parte dos resultados obtidos em nossa pesquisa de mestrado e tem por objetivo analisar as relações e contradições existentes entre o Conselho Municipal de Educação de São Luís e a gestão das escolas da rede municipal da capital maranhense. Para tanto, realizamos um estudo de natureza qualitativa com pesquisa bibliográfica substanciada em autores como Souza (2003), Gohn (2008), Bordignon (2009, 2020) e Marcelino (2013) e pesquisa de campo com a realização de entrevistas semiestruturadas com conselheiros representantes do governo, professores e sociedade civil desse colegiado e diretores e coordenadores pedagógicos da rede municipal de educação ludovicense. Neste trabalho, discorreremos sobre as funções e atribuições dos Conselhos Municipais de Educação (CMEs), enquanto mecanismos de democratização, e analisaremos as relações entre esse órgão e a gestão escolar de São Luís, mediante dados coletados. Concluímos que a relação atualmente existente entre o CME/SL e os gestores escolares está assentada em uma relação mais burocrática, pautada em assessoramento técnico voltado, especialmente, para o processo de regularização das escolas, limitando o exercício da dimensão política por esse conselho.
O dwuznaczności "zwrotu praktycznego" w filozofii posokratejskiej
Authors: Oleksy Mateusz
Published: May 2023

In this paper I venture to examine from several different (but related) perspectives the ambivalent significance of practice in Greek thought. On the one hand, philosophical culture (vita contemplative or theoria) evolves in stark opposition to political culture (vita activa). On the other hand, philosophy in the era of post-Socratic schools takes the form of a spiritual practice (askesis) oriented on the conversion or transformation of the soul of a pupil, and quite often is defined as a preparation for social life (both in the ethical and political aspect). I discuss the Greek problem of anthropocentrism in the context of the critical opposition of bios theoretikos and bios politikos, special attention being paid to the internal tension between theoria (and its self-understanding) and philosophical practise as present in the schools. It is not my intention to deny the distance which separates theoria from praxis.
Nevertheless, my objective is to bring out the ambivalence of the notion of theoretical contemplation in the context of Platonic dialectics. Near the end of the paper, I suggest – alluding to Nietzsche's judgment of the relation between post-Socratic and pre-Socratic philosophy – that one should approach with caution two very tempting visions of Greek philosophy. The one is the idea of alleged primacy of the practical over the theoretical in Greek philosophy. The other is the myth of the "primordial practise of the ancient sages", characterized in metaphysical terms.
Pojęcie energii i jego konsekwencje w psychoterapii
Authors: Szałek Piotr
Published: May 2023

Development of notion of energy resulted in appearing different interpretations in fields of physics and psychology.
To psychology this concept was introduced by Mesmer. He believed that an influence of a physically perceptible fluid is the essence of therapeutic action. It was Freud who reformulated Mesmer's theory explaining that this influence should be understood as a transference. At the same time, the 19th century disputes between vitalism and mechanistic school of physiology brought a widespread consensus about the unity of all types of energy. This consensus led later to a gradual elimination of the concept of energy from psychology.
In the 20th century interpretation of notion libido caused that idea of a specific vital energy returned in Reich's pieces. It is important that Reich was one of the most prominent psychotherapists of the 20th century. He created contemporary Bioenergetic Therapy.
Representatives of this kind of therapy claim today that a notion of energy announces a rise of a new paradigm in science. Actually this notion creates a danger of introducing activities independent of any rational valuation into a field of healing procedures.
Tekstualizm i alegoria przeciw modernistycznym koncepcjom bezpośredniej komunikacji
Authors: Rejniak-Majewska Agnieszka

The article discusses the theoretical background of some postmodern art practices of appropriation. In the writings of art critics' like Douglas Crimp, Craig Owens, or Rosalind Krauss, as well as in some artists' statements (Peter Halley, Sherrie Levine), there was a strong repudiation of the so-called "modern" concepts of originality, immediacy of meaning or authorship. As a result of the influence of poststructuralist theories, such concepts of modern art as the idea of original expressivity of medium and form, together with the search to go beyond conventional codes, were replaced by ideas of intertextuality, iterability, there is no way to go beyond conventional codes of communication resulted in turning towards another strategy, i.c. a play with the code. In the works of some theoretically informed postmodern artists' this criticism towards the "utopian" ideas of modern art assumed the form of pastiche and appropriation of celebrated works of modern art, so that the fact of cultural mediation in our reading of artworks was comming well apparent. The modern concept of "pure visuality" was replaced by textual attitudes and the concept of allegory which was drawn from Walter Benjamin. However, thinking about visual works in terms of textuality only may be a too narrow view. Textual categories seem to suit well those works which came under the strong influence of conventionalist theories, but it may be claimed that images put a demand for a more complex and specific theoretical attitude, like for example one proposed by Barthes in his text "The Third Meaning".
Poznanie zmysłowe w ujęciu Fryderyka Jacobiego
Authors: Piórczyński Józef

In relation to material reality only direct perception as sensual perception gives unbiased, reliable cognisance. Therefore, this cognisance is irremovably receptive. A subject does not add anything of himself to the object. Thinking does not play any role in such a cognisance, because object is before any thinking. According to Jacobi sensual cognisance consists of this what is given, a certain perceived content, and of a feeling assuring the existence of what is given, e.g. a belief. These two elements are inseparable.
A foundation of this approach has been prepared for Jacobi by Thomas Reid, however, it was finalised thanks to critical reference to David Hume concerning that second, not perceptive element of cognisance.
Odrzucanie: przeczenie a dylematy
Authors: Priest Graham
Published: May 2023

The paper is about the notion of rejection, and its linguistic expression, denial. Following Frege, it is often supposed that to deny something is simply to assert its negation. This connection is contested, and some consequences of rejecting it are discussed, especially in connection with a dialetheic solution to the paradoxes of self-reference. The paper then goes on to discuss the connection between rejection and truth (more specifically, untruth). This raises the possibility that there are rational dilemmas, and the paper ends by discussing some examples of these.
Eksternalizm illokucyjny a uwyraźnienie mocy illokucyjnej
Authors: Blanco Salgueiro Antonio
Published: May 2023

I call illocutionary externalism (IE) the approach to the study of illocutionary force that I favor. IE is inspired by Austin's seminal ideas on performatives and speech acts. According to IE, in the analysis of a paradigmatic illocutionary force we must essentially mention some aspects of the social and natural environment that cannot be reduced to the (de dicto) speakers' mental states, no matter how these are individuated. A difficult problem for IE derives from the possibility of making explicit the force of an utterance. This fact invites us to focus our attention on the utterer (the person who makes the force explicit) and his mental states (illocutionary intentions), and to support a mentalist approach in the study of forces. In this article I shall argue for the compatibility of IE with the phenomenon of the explicitability of illocutionary force.
