Social Resilience: A Critical Synopsis of Definitions
Authors: Qamar Azher Hameed
Published: December 2024

Social resilience is a relatively new concept that has recently attracted researchers in the social sciences. In the 21st century, it is becoming significant in sustainability studies in the context of social well-being and its impact on quality of life. Cultural adherence, informal social networking, local knowledge and belief practices, the social value of relationships and community members, and interdependence all contribute to complex, coherent, and holistic social resilience. This article presents a critical synopsis of definitions of social resilience to comprehend the concept and its key characteristics. After selecting the common definitions, I examined them to identify the keywords and verbs used to define social resilience and its key aspects. Almost all definitions relate to social resilience as the ability or capacity to withstand, recover, and maintain. A description of social resilience following these definitions provides an understanding of social resilience as a multifaceted, dynamic, and complex social construct that extends its scope to individual, group, or community dynamics, adaptability, and a variety of other environmental factors. The synthesis of the definitions supports the concept of an ‘agency-oriented’ framework of social resilience and an interdisciplinary approach to studying social experiences and practices during crises, including the interaction with (social, cultural, political, and economic) environmental factors.
Economic Survival of the Poorest Families Living in the Slum Areas of Zamboanga City, Philippines:

A Phenomenological Enquiry
Authors: Moreno Frede , Sulasula Josephine
Published: December 2024

This study investigates the economic survival strategies of the poorest families residing in the slum areas of Zamboanga City, Philippines, through a phenomenological approach. Drawing on in-depth interviews and participatory observations, the research uncovers how these households navigate extreme poverty through a combination of informal employment, social capital, and limited state support. The findings reveal that economic survival is sustained primarily through networks of family and community, alongside precarious work in the informal sector. Although government programs like the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) provide temporary relief, they are insufficient to address the underlying structural causes of poverty. The research also highlights the gendered dimensions of survival, with women and children often carrying disproportionate burdens in sustaining household livelihoods. The study contributes to the literature on urban poverty, informal economies, and social protection, offering a deeper understanding of how the urban poor adapt to systemic inequalities. It also integrates social capital theory to frame these survival strategies, suggesting that both formal and informal systems must be strengthened to achieve long-term poverty alleviation. The study concludes with policy recommendations aimed at improving social protection schemes, empowering communities, and fostering sustainable livelihood opportunities. This research is pivotal in informing more effective, context-specific poverty reduction strategies in urban slums.

Authors: Melo Antonio Marlos Duarte de , Rocha Luan de Melo , Carvalho Maria Clara de Sá , Oliveira Millena Diniz Souza de , Sampaio Vinícius José Grangeiro
Published: December 2024

The management of localized gastric cancer has evolved considerably with the advent of novel perioperative treatment strategies with chemotherapy, significantly impacting patient outcomes. Traditionally, surgery has been the cornerstone of treatment, but recurrence rates remained high, necessitating the exploration of additional therapies to enhance long-term survival. The interplay between chemotherapy and radiotherapy is being meticulously studied to define the optimal sequencing and combination that maximizes tumor control while minimizing toxicity. Furthermore, the integration of targeted therapies and immunotherapy into the perioperative setting is gaining momentum with agents targeting HER2, VEGF, and PD-1/PD-L1, pathways have shown promise in advanced gastric cancer and are now being tested in the neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings. Preliminary results from trials investigating these agents, such as pembrolizumab and trastuzumab-deruxtecan, suggest potential survival benefits and warrant further exploration in combination with chemotherapy in the perioperative context. Additionally, the heterogeneity of gastric cancer across different populations and geographic regions necessitates tailored approaches that consider genetic and molecular characteristics of tumors, as well as patient comorbidities. This Comment provides a comprehensive overview of the latest therapeutic advancements in the perioperative setting for localized gastric cancer, emphasizing the critical role of multimodal treatment approaches.

O Útero é um Animal Selvagem: Patologias e Corpo Feminino em disputas de Sentidos
Authors: Lima Flora Fernandes
Published: December 2024

Esse trabalho pretende traçar breve análise crítica e teórica acerca da construção de sentido do corpo feminino como um corpo que naturalmente tende a condições patológicas, e em específico afecções mentais e físicas representadas pelo conceito de histeria. Nesse sentido, aborda aspectos acerca do processo de configuração desse conceito como um fenômeno do campo “psi”. Problematiza o movimento de nomeações subjetivas direcionadas ao corpo feminino por parte de sistemas de conhecimento, em que se destacam aqueles cuja construção tomam formas científicas, entendidos para o universo dessa análise como dispositivos de performatividade de gênero. Tais movimentos são marcados por tensões e negociações de limites disciplinares de diferentes autoridades e saberes na compreensão das conformações de gênero, cujos atores envolvidos estão imersos em uma rede em que agem e recebem impactos de suas ações. Perceber as formas de conceituação de histeria ainda persistentes, bem como suas tecnologias associadas (conceitos, técnicas, etc), pode auxiliar no seu entendimento como dispositivo de performatividade associada aos diversos reforços discursivos e institucionalizados que favorece.

Adaptation and validation of the Anti-Fat Attitudes Scale for the Colombian adolescent population
Authors: Torres-Gutiérrez Valentina , Salazar-Villalobos Karen , Gómez-Lugo Mayra
Published: December 2024

Introduction: In Colombia, 56.4% of the population lives with excess weight, which not only has medical implications but also poses risks to mental health due to negative attitudes and discrimination. Despite the existence of instruments to measure these attitudes, there is no evidence of their application in Colombia. Therefore, this research aimed to adapt and validate the Anti-Fat Attitudes (AFA) Scale for Colombian adolescents. Method: The AFA was applied to 662 participants from 12 to 19 years of age from various departments of Colombia. Content validity, exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, and convergent validity analyses were conducted. Results: The AFA showed high internal consistency (McDonald´s Omega .85) and a three-dimensional model in which item 2 was removed due to insufficient values. Significant correlations were found between the AFA and the Body Image State Scale, supporting its convergent validity. Conclusions: The AFA is a valid and reliable measure for assessing negative attitudes towards obesity in Colombian adolescents, with implications for clinical practice and health research. Further research is needed to address limitations, strengthen the scale’s validity and reliability, and develop specific interventions based on its results.

Physicochemical Analysis of Dyeing of Cotton Denim with Natural Indigo Dye from Strobilanthes cusia Using Green Reducing Agents and Alkalis
Authors: Nuramdhani Ida , Abdan Maulana Fahrizal , Manalu Robinson , Tirta Jantera Sekar , Widodo Mohamad
Published: December 2024

Strobilanthes cusia is one of many indigo-producing plants with promising and attractive potentials as an alternative source of natural indigo dye due to its dyeability to cotton fibres with high colour strength, and due to its ease of cultivation. The aim of this research was to utilise natural indigo dye from Strobilanthes cusia to dye cotton denim fabric in an environmentally friendly way. The use of D-fructose and D-glucose as well as rice husk ash and lime solutions as reducing agents and alkali sources was explored in this study. The dyeing process was carried out at 30 °C for 30 minutes, followed by the oxidation process in open air for 45 minutes. Colour characteristics and fastness to washing and rubbing were evaluated. The results showed that D-fructose resulted in a higher colour strength than D-glucose, and that lime is better than rice husk ash and even sodium hydroxide in terms of colour strength. The highest colour strength was obtained from the combination of D-fructose and lime solution, with K/S and SUM(K/S) values of 16.02 (at 650 nm) and 8.5 respectively. The colour fastness to washing and rubbing was good for all dyed fabrics, with the staining scale ranging from 3/4 to 4. These results bring a new potential for natural indigo dye from Strobilanthes cusia beyond its current and limited use by traditional dyers to a much larger scale of denim dyeing for an eco-friendly fashion industry.

From the Nile to the Black Sea
Authors: Abdel Azeem Emad
Published: December 2024

During the New Kingdom period, Egypt had frequent contact with the Hittite kingdom, the largest and most powerful of the Anatolian sub-groups. However, there is less information about Egypt’s relations with its neighbors Arzawa and Kaška. This study focuses on Egypt’s perception of and policy toward Kaška, a lesser known Anatolian sub-group located north along the Black Sea. Since there is no direct correspondence between Egypt and Kaška, the study examines Hittite texts that record contact and conflict with Kaška, as well as mentions of Kaška in correspondence between Egypt and Ḫatti and between Egypt and Arzawa. By synthesizing these records and writings, the study sheds light on Egypt’s view of and policy toward Kaška during the New Kingdom period.

Metals in the Third Millennium BC
Authors: Archi Alfonso
Published: December 2024

The documents of the Central Archive of Ebla systematically cover forty-one or forty-two years for some administrative sectors, while those concerning primary production are only preserved at random. Monthly documents register the expenditures of the textile production by the Administration. A series of annual documents concerns the incomes of unwrought metals, objects in metal, and clothing, while another one concerns the expenditures of metals in the form of plates and in many kinds of objects. Hundreds of undatable documents, moreover, register particular incomes or expenditures of these goods. The rate between silver and gold was for many years 5 : 1 (reduced later to 3: 1, and even to 2.5 : 1). It is therefore possible (in the limits of this documentation) to determine on the one hand the incomes of metals through the deliveries of the ministers and other officials, together with those of the tributary cities, and on the other the amounts of the expended metals year after year. The deliveries from the city-states under the hegemony of Ebla prove that all these metals came from the eastern Taurus Mountains. The rate between silver and refined copper was 1 : 30; with unrefined copper 1 : 37,5; with bronze 1 : 7; and with tin 1 : 1.
Using innovative technology tools in organic chemistry education: bibliometric analysis
Authors: Pabuçcu-Akış Aybüke
Published: December 2024

This study focused on investigating the usage of popular innovative technology tools (augmented reality-AR, virtual reality-VR, artificial intelligence-AI, and 3D printing) in organic chemistry education. Although there is bibliometric analysis for the exploration of using innovative technology in educational context, there is further need for research focused on their usage in organic chemistry. Vosviewer and Biblioshiny software were used for bibliometric procedures. The Scopus database was selected to trace the articles published in journals. Following the eligibility process, the study was conducted with 30 articles for the time frame between January 2014 and June 2024. Performance analysis was utilized to reveal publications and citation trends with the top contributors. Bibliographic mapping was used to comprehend the conceptual, intellectual, and social structures of the retrieved data. The results revealed that articles on innovative technology tools have enormously increased in organic chemistry education recently. We found that the first innovative tool among the selected ones that is utilized in organic chemistry education is 3D printing while AI is the latest tool to start to be used in this scope. Although artificial intelligence seems to be the least studied tool among them, its popularity has recently seen an acceleration. VR and AR had the highest average citations per publication.

Simulation and analysis of the over-expanded flow field in asymmetric nozzles with lateral expansion
Authors: Wang Zhenghe , Cui Jufeng , Yang Yalin , Yu Yang
Published: December 2024

Numerical simulations of a three-dimensional asymmetric nozzle with lateral expansion were carried out, focusing on the characteristics of the three-dimensional flow field in the over-expanded state and the influence of the sidewall surface profiles on the over-expanded flow field. The results show that the sidewall profiles cause the separation zones inside the nozzle to exhibit different shapes. The center separation bubble and the corner zone separation bubble are independent of each other in the lower wall surface confined shock wave separation mode. In the upper wall-constrained shock wave separation mode, the center separation bubble, the corner zone separation bubble, and the sidewall surface separation bubble are interconnected. Under the same drop pressure ratio, changes in the sidewall profile affect the shape and size of the separation zones, and the convex wall can slow the occurrence of separation to a certain extent.

Authors: Streng-Baunemann Anne Franziska
Published: December 2024

Nicht etablierte, innovative Behandlungsmethoden und Arzneimittel sind bei schweren Erkrankungen häufig die letzte Chance auf Heilung, Lebensverlängerung oder zumindest auf Verbesserung der Lebensqualität. In der Praxis ist es für Patienten aber häufig schwierig, Zugang zu diesen medizinischen Innovationen zu erhalten – gerade wenn diese sehr teuer sind.

Zur besseren Lesbarkeit wird in dieser Publikation das generische Maskulinum verwendet. Die in dieser Arbeit verwendeten Personenbezeichnungen beziehen sich – sofern nicht anders kenntlich gemacht – auf alle Geschlechter.

Der Beitrag beleuchtet, unter welchen Voraussetzungen Ärzte aus Perspektive des Strafrechts berechtigt und sogar verpflichtet sind, nicht etablierte, innovative Methoden anzuwenden und entsprechende Medikamente zu verordnen (1.) und unter welchen Voraussetzungen die gesetzliche Krankenversicherung (GKV) solche Therapien und Medikamente bereitstellen bzw. finanzieren muss (2.).

Auf Rechtsansprüche privat Krankenversicherter kann hier nicht eingegangen werden.

Zudem wird dargelegt, welche Zugangswege es zu Medikamenten gibt, die noch in der Erprobungsphase sind und somit noch in keinem Staat zugelassen und erhältlich sind (3.), wie man in der Praxis schnell und sicher Zugang zu medizinischen Innovationen erhält (4.) und welche Rechtsschutzmöglichkeiten bestehen, wenn die GKV Leistungsanträge ablehnt (5.).

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar um documento único, inédito e inexplorado pela historiografia: o processo de indenização trabalhista de um dos dois operários mortos durante a construção da Universidade de Brasília (UnB), em abril de 1962. As mortes de candangos, denominação dada aos trabalhadores que construíram a capital, permanecem como silêncio e tabu na história oficial. O documento revelado e estudado subverte essa lógica, por ser uma evidência inquestionável do que se quer apagar da memória coletiva. Ademais, nos permite avançar com o conhecimento sobre as condições e relações trabalhistas na cidade que permanecia em construção, mesmo após ser inaugurada.Palavras-chave: Construção de Brasília; Universidade de Brasília; Candangos; Morte de Operários. Abstract This article aims to analyze a unique document, unprecedented and unexplored by historiography: the labor indemnity process of one of the two workers killed during the construction of the University of Brasilia (UnB), in April 1962.

Systemic antibiotic prophylaxis in arthroplasty – a narrative review of how many doses are optimal
Authors: Wahl Peter , Drennan Philip , Schläppi Michel , Achermann Yvonne , Leunig Michael , Gautier Emanuel , Benninger Emanuel
Published: December 2024

Systemic antibiotic prophylaxis (SAP) is well-established in arthroplasty to prevent periprosthetic joint infection. However, the optimal duration and dosing of SAP remain a matter of debate, as evidenced by ongoing discordance between recommendations and clinical practice, reflected in the heterogeneity and imprecision of national and societal guidelines.

The evidence currently available regarding the duration of SAP is summarised and discussed, specifically the postoperative repeated administration of antimicrobials within the first 24 h.

The evidence available suffers from limitations, specifically deficiencies in outcome assessments in the available randomised controlled trials. Observational studies suggest that a short postoperative prolongation (<24 h) of SAP in arthroplasty may result in superior long-term outcomes compared to a single dose, and that an optimal dosing strategy, which warrants further prospective evaluation, may involve ‘stacked dosing’ in the early postoperative period, with re-administration every two half-lives when using commonly recommended beta-lactam antibiotics, instead of repetition at usual dosing intervals over 24 h. A stacked approach would also cover recognised indications for repetition, such as major blood loss and increased duration of operation, potentially simplifying prescribing protocols.

Pharmacokinetic simulations are provided to illustrate the distinct concentration–time profiles associated with different prophylaxis regimens.

Prolonging SAP beyond 24 h is not recommended.

This review concludes by providing recommendations for further research, particularly a call to document SAP regimens with sufficient detail (choice of drug, dose regimen, and duration of administration) into established national arthroplasty registries, which should rapidly enable a significantly more nuanced understanding of these critical issues than permitted by the current literature.
Un Marco de Trabajo para el Desarrollo de Software Web Seguro con Metodologías Ágiles
Authors: Valderrama Herrera Gilmer Glicerio , Herrera Quispe José Alfredo
Published: December 2024

Software development using the agile approach with SCRUM presents itself as an alternative to traditional methodologies, offering incremental, iterative features and continuous code delivery that ensure a product adaptable to changes. However, this approach faces challenges in terms of secure development, as threats and vulnerabilities may not be adequately addressed due to tight deadlines and frequent changes in requirements. In this context, a framework for secure web software development using Agile Methodologies (SCRUM) is proposed. Based on the literature, eight security activities have been selected for this purpose and integrated into the development process, considering their level of agility and cost-benefit. The validity of this proposal was confirmed through an instrument that gathered the opinions of 45 experts in the software development industry in Peru.

Relation analysis (RELAN) – a new method of logical and statistical analysis of data to minimise the replication crisis
Authors: Maderthaner Rainer
Published: December 2024

The replication crisis weakens the credibility of statistical science. Although the reasons usually given for this (e.g. questionable research practices, statistical errors) are important, but it is often overlooked that hypotheses are often not complex enough to accurately represent empirical phenomena. This means that statistical methods will have to be better suited to more complex hypotheses than in the past. The Relation Analysis (RELAN), theoretical framework and software, allows the logical analysis, statistical testing, and simulation (modelling) of simple and highly complex logical hypotheses and also an extensive exploration of multivariate data sets. The approach of RELAN is grounded in the mathematical framework of relations, which permits the identification of all relationships - causes, effects, moderators, and mediators - among up to ten binary variables. To adequately describe complex empirical associations, the method employs six logical functions between variables (e.g. AND, OR, IF-THEN) as opposed to relying on a single function, namely (bidirectional) correlation, as is the case with the majority of multivariate statistical methods. Furthermore, most multivariate statistical analyses are based on pairwise correlations between variables; RELAN takes into account all potential relationships, that means the interactions between all variables; this multivariate and multifunctional complexity allows for highly specific hypotheses (alternative hypotheses) that are often very ‘far’ (effect size) from the random probability (null hypothesis), so that (with a constant sample size and significance level) the statistical power generally also increases. Moreover, the logical association analysis, RELAN, can be conducted for up to one hundred variables. Consequently, this method serves as a potential remedy for the replication crisis observed in numerous scientific disciplines. Additionally, the logical formulation of hypotheses clarifies their theoretical structure and enhances communication within the research community. This article provides a brief overview of the method and illustrates its application through several straightforward examples.

Published: December 2024

In this paper calculating the technological errors that arise when using capacitive sensors to measure the air gap (AG) in hydrogen generators, in particular, those caused by the inaccuracy of their installation on the machine. The results of the analysis of the error caused by the skew of the plane of the sensor electrodes relative to the constructive boring of the stator core are given. It was found that the skew of the electrodes could significantly affect the accuracy of the measurements, which in turn affects the efficiency and reliability of the hydrogen generator. A detailed assessment of the influence of this skew on the measurement results was carried out using a sensor consisting of a system of N coplanar parallel strip electrodes located perpendicular to the core boring. A calculation scheme has been developed for the quantitative assessment of the error, which allows determining the value of the error taking into account analytical dependencies. Numerical methods were used to assess the influence of skew on the accuracy of measurements, and the results were obtained for a sensor designed for a capsule hydrogen generator of the SGK538/160-70M type. Based on the obtained results, practical recommendations have been developed to reduce the impact of skew error on measurement accuracy. Ref. 11, fig. 6.
The Importance of Public Reason in Democratic Society and the Criticism of Rawls’s Concept of Unreasonableness
Authors: Sunaryo Sunaryo
Published: December 2024

People everywhere always live in diversity. Sometimes, people express their values in ways incompatible with the principle of reciprocity or reasonableness. In John Rawls's view, they are categorized as unreasonable because their expression does not align with public reason. In this article, we need to ask, are they really unreasonable and a threat to democracy? Here, we state that public reason is essential to democracy. However, we also need to build a fairer public life and broader public reasoning that engages people from wider background cultures. Thus, Rawls’ understanding of unreasonableness is challenging. We cannot exclude people who have not applied public reason from public life. We neither categorize them as unreasonable because they do not necessarily attack public reason. We can identify them as “in-between” reasonable and unreasonable people, and they are not really a threat to democracy. We need to engage and endorse them to explore a just public life. In order to build a fairer public life, we need to engage people widely and make public reasoning a place for learning the meaning of justice.
Vitam destituere

Published: December 2024

O presente texto tem por finalidade propor o sintagma vitam destituere como um conceito paradigmático para a interpretação do pensamento de Giorgio Agamben, notadamente no que diz respeito à sua proposta ontológica-messiânica-política. Diferentemente de sua antítese, vitam instituere, o sintagma vitam destituere é aqui formulado com a pretensão de expor aquilo que singulariza o pensamento de Agamben no debate de filosofia política contemporânea, sobretudo quanto à crítica e à profanação do legado romano da ontologia do officium. Para isso: (i) exponho os pontos centrais da tetralogia Homo sacer contra os quais o projeto destituinte de Agamben se insurge; (ii) apresento o fundamento do tratamento do conceito de vitam instituere na obra de Agamben a partir de uma filiação a Yan Thomas; (iii) proponho uma comparação do pensamento de Agamben com o de Roberto Esposito, este enquanto pensador do vitam instituere, aquele do vitam destituere; (iv) sugiro que o pensamento de Spinoza é fundamental para se compreender o ponto em que Agamben e Esposito se afastam.

Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL) remains one of the acute issues in modern obstetrics and gynecology. The etiology and causes of each pregnancy loss often cannot be identified. In Ukraine, a significant number of women of reproductive age have thyroid gland dysfunction, which requires attention to this problem not only from endocrinologists but also from gynecologists, especially in managing patients with unexplained RPL.
The aim was to study the etiology of RPL based on a clinical case study and to find out the relationship between certain types of endocrine dysfunction and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which in turn can significantly increase the risk of developing RPL. Such research is important for a deeper understanding of the causes and factors that increase the risks of RPL, allowing for more effective diagnostics and treatment in planning subsequent pregnancies for women at risk of miscarriage who have been diagnosed with PTSD.
Clinical case. The patient, a 27-year-old woman, was diagnosed with RPL after the loss of her third pregnancy. During her second unsuccessful pregnancy in 2020, she was diagnosed with autoimmune thyroiditis. In 2022, she experienced another pregnancy loss at 6 weeks during the occupation of the Kyiv region. Examinations revealed thyroid dysfunction, iron deficiency anemia, and PTSD. Comprehensive treatment and preconception preparation were conducted, including medication, psychotherapy, and health monitoring. The next pregnancy, confirmed in February 2023, resulted in a successful delivery in October 2023.
Conclusions. The clinical case presented demonstrates the necessity of detailed patient history collection in patients with RPL with mandatory assessment of thyroid function and consideration of psychological status. It also highlights the importance of correcting TSH levels already at the preconception stage, without waiting for early complications or threats to pregnancy.
The study was performed in accordance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki. Informed consent was obtained for the study.

ABSTRACT Edentulism is the loss of permanent dental structures, which impacts aesthetics and essential functions like chewing and speech. Dental prosthetics, specifically complete dentures, offer a solution. This study provides an overview of the production process using CAD/CAM technology. Digital methods yield monolithic denture bases, enhancing aesthetics and eliminating issues like shrinkage. Digital technologies expedite the fabrication process. The conventional method has shortcomings, leading to poor-fitting dentures, multiple dental visits, higher costs, and limitations. CAD/CAM is poised to replace traditional techniques, but improvements are needed for a seamless transition. Current CAD/CAM systems must enhance digital techniques, ensure fully digital production, and reduce costs for broader consumer accessibility. This evolution holds the key to a brighter and more comfortable future for edentulous patients.
Bruxism triggered by Escitalopram persists even after discontinuing the drug: a case report
Authors: Resende Gabriel Barbosa , Silva Isadora Maria de Souza e , Oliveira Lisandra Brandino de
Published: December 2024

ABSTRACT Bruxism is a motor disorder of multifactorial etiology characterized by an exacerbation of muscular activity associated with cleaning or removing teeth, with sound or wakefulness. Bruxism associated with SSRIs, described in the literature, has been documented by a rare adverse reaction and by the pathophysiology associated with the drug’s central system distribution. After the use of Escitalopram for the treatment of depression, a patient presented a functional oral movement disorder caused by repetitive grinding of the teeth unconsciously, characterizing a picture of sleep bruxism, which resulted in hypertrophy of the masticatory muscles and severe headaches. The condition was alleviated by withdrawal of medication and the use of non-pharmacological treatments, however, there was never complete remission. Since depression is a disease that affects 15.5% of the Brazilian population throughout life and that the use of antidepressant drugs is essential for its treatment, it is possible to discuss its common and not so common adverse effects, such as the bruxism.
Main pollen characters in the diet of four stingless bees (Apidae: Meliponini) in the Chaco dry forest
Authors: Vossler Favio Gerardo
Published: December 2024

Abstract The pollen morphology of 59 floral resources found in 30 nests of four stingless bees was analyzed using nine characters. For identification and description, the pollen was acetolyzed and for cytoplasm measurements, the non-acetolyzed grains were fuchsine stained. Ten pollen types were chosen at random to be described in detail and microphotographed using light and scanning microscopes: Achatocarpus praecox, Trithrinax schizophylla, Parthenium hysterophorus, Anisocapparis speciosa, Capparicordis tweediana, Cynophalla retusa, Sarcotoxicum salicifolium, Caesalpinia paraguariensis, Parkinsonia praecox, and Pisonia zapallo var. guaranitica. Among the plant species foraged, the main pollen classes were monads, spheroidal cytoplasm shapes (P/E ratio), spheroidal and ellipsoidal cytoplasm shapes (geometric), small to medium cytoplasm sizes and volumes, tri-zono-colporate apertures, and meshed and psilate-softly ornamented. The main pollen morphological characters were associated with: a_ extreme versatility in foraging behaviour of stingless bees (polylecty, wet pollen load transportation, illegitimate collection of floral pollen, pollen stealing, recruitment of foragers); b_ some morphological attributes (low hairiness on legs, small bodies); and c_ the predominant floral morphology (small, pale, generalist) of the woody flora of the Chaco dry forest. To better understand pollen selection by bees, more pollen morpho-anatomical characters should be studied under different techniques and preparation variants of the same samples.
