When God Gets Angry: Towards a Theology of Divine Wrath
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Daeubler Lukas
Published: June 2023

Topic One of the most significant concerns regarding the character and love of God is God’s wrath, especially in the Old Testament. For many, it is impossible to believe in a God who punishes and kills rather than a God who shows compassion and love for all people. They neglect either the violent parts of the Bible, since they seem to contradict the image of a loving God displayed in the Gospels. This of course directly questions the integrity of God and His word. As a response, some theologians have published papers on this topic, but many Christians and denominations try to ignore the topic as best as possible and focus instead more on His love. Purpose The purpose of this paper is to address the nature of God’s wrath. I will try to demonstrate that fear of a wrathful God is unnecessary by showing why God gets angry, what the reasons are for His wrath, how the wrath of God is actually related to His love, and why it is a crucial characteristic for every believer today. Sources As previously mentioned, the wrath of God has been widely overlooked throughout history. Therefore, sources concerning this topic are limited to a few articles or a chapter in a book about God’s love, judgment, or hard to understand texts, mostly in the Old Testament. Many times, they also focus on very specific parts of God’s wrath. However, this study will be a holistic, biblical paper, which focuses mainly on a general understanding of wrath in general and God’s wrath in particular. Conclusions This study reveals that God’s wrath is a reaction of His holiness when confronted with sin. At any point in time, God is in full control of his emotions and on many occasions he even creates opportunities for the sinner to avert his wrath. His wrath is ultimately averted by Jesus dying for the sins of the world on the cross at Golgotha. Furthermore, this empowers God to actively intervene in favor of His people, limit the suffering and chaos caused by evil, and finally it allows him to create a new earth and a new Jerusalem after He has eliminated sin once and for all.
The Correlation Between Servant Leadership and Organizational Health within the North England Conference of the Seventh-day Adventist Church
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Douglas Carlton
Published: June 2023

Problem Statistics indicate the SDA church in the North England Conference (NEC) is having little effect on the population in the UK. This may be due to the fact that the leadership approach and the structure of the church have not changed despite globalisation, advances in technology, and increased migration. With the demands of operating within a secular, pluralistic society, the North England Conference faces a real challenge to maintain its integrity while being relevant. This study investigates the correlation between perceived servant leadership principles and organizational health by the leaders, pastoral workers, and members of the NEC. Method The study employed a quantitative, nonexperimental, correlational design method, in which the correlational statistics between two or more variables is investigated. The OLA survey designed by Laub (1999) was the chosen instrument. It uses six servant leadership dimensions to determine the perceptions of respondents of the presence of servant leadership principles within the NEC and its organizational health. Results The results indicate that the perception of organizational health within the NEC by all the respondents was limited. When each of the servant leadership principles was examined, Building Community was ranked the highest, which implied respondents recognized the value of strong relationships and communities. However, the results reveal that the conference is suffering from a series of problems preventing it from realizing its full potential as an organization.
Diagnostic Practices of Autism Spectrum Disorders in Brazil
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Dias Ana
Published: June 2023

In Brazil, in spite of over half a million students with special needs in primary education, little research has been conducted about ASD diagnostic practices. This involves learning about the training that professionals are receiving, what diagnostic practices are being implemented on the field, and whether those are being contextualized according to the Brazilian culture. Students with special needs are directly affected by the results of diagnostic practices, since identifying the individuals is one of the first steps. Lack of understanding about that stage may lead to the problematic realities of underidentification or overidentification, exclusion of children who should receive that special intervention and inclusion of some who do not need them. Precision in diagnosis, that considers cultural factors, is a highly desired and continuous goal for special educators. Therefore, students with ASD are directly affected by the results of this research. The purpose of this study is 1) to determine the knowledge and training of professionals that diagnose Autism Spectrum Disorder in Brazil (Audiologists, Neurologists, Pediatricians, Psychologists, Psychiatrists, and others), 2) to determine if those professionals are using diagnostic practices similar to the US, 3) to investigate which procedures and instruments are used in the diagnosis of a child suspected of having an Autism Spectrum Disorder in Brazil; and 4) to determine what happens after diagnosis. This research can be placed within the context of studies focused on three complementary areas: conceptual, historical, and cross-cultural. The first area is related to the overall conceptual understanding of cultural factors in the diagnosis of ASD. The second one considers the historical influences in the diagnostic practices of children with ASD in Brazil, including government policies. The last one adopts a cross-cultural approach to the study of autism with emphasis on comparative studies. The survey instrument specifically designed for this study is The Autism Spectrum Disorders Assessment Survey comprised of thirteen questions (single and multiple choice items, and Likert-type items) designed to collect information in regards to demographic characteristics of the participant, description of the diagnostic team, procedures, instruments used for diagnosis, and knowledge about characteristics necessary to identify a child as having an ASD. The survey received 236 responses from professionals that diagnose Autism Spectrum Disorders from every state and the Federal District in Brazil. The results of this research suggest the need to invest in the training of professionals. Another related suggestion is to develop specific criteria and common diagnostic protocol for professionals in Brazil. Finally, providing access to inclusive education to people with autism would also provide them a more adequate opportunity for development.

Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Pacheco Francine
Published: June 2023

Purpose This study sought to propose actions to improve the internship program in the curriculum plan in the Business course of a private higher educational institute (HEI) in the countryside of São Paulo, from the analysis of the expectations of students and organizations involved in the students’ admission to the Job Market. Method To serve this purpose, a research-action was performed in three steps: analysis, intervention and evaluation. In the first stage, conducting interviews with those involved enabled us to understand the needs of the students, identify their expectations for the HEI, and what they are looking for in this internship. It also sought to visualize the reality of HEI and the Job Market's expectations for the student. Results It was possible to identify students’ main expectations in relation to the HEI, understand the Job Market expectations, which showed the importance of students’ behavioral, ethical and political skills and the work methodology practiced by the HEI. Conclusion Based on this analysis, it was possible to prepare the intervention plan developed during the research. The most relevant actions were aimed at improving internal communication on the documentation flow to validate the internship. The process was mapped and disseminated to all of those concerned. A recruiter company gave a lecture intended for students, and all who were present were registered in the database to receive places available in the area.
Glaucous-Winged Gull Predation On Chicken Eggs Treated With A UV-Blocking Agent
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Smith Athena
Published: June 2023

Egg cannibalism plays a major role in the life histories of Glaucous-winged Gulls (Larus glaucescens) breeding at Protection Island, Washington. Gulls, along with other birds, visualize reflected ultraviolet (UV) light and I wondered if reflected UV light plays a role in determining which eggs are selected for cannibalization. Motivated by studies showing that tree-nesting bird eggs coated with a UV-blocking agent were less subject to predation than control eggs, I tested whether ground-nesting Glaucous-winged Gulls would preferentially predate control chicken eggs over those coated with a UV-blocking agent. Early during five mornings I formed artificial nests at randomly-determined locations in the Protection Island colony. One UV-blocked or one non-UV-blocked egg was placed in each nest. Nests were checked at 2-hour intervals. Poisson regression showed that, contrary to expectation, UV-blocked eggs were taken earlier than control eggs (p = 0.0659). This effect disappeared on days with rain (p = 0.288–0.289); however, this effect was more pronounced on days without rain (p = 0.0312). Moreover, eggs of both types survived less time during progressively later days (p < 0.001).

Background: Self-care of adolescents with congenital heart disease (CHD) is one of the challenges of the health care system. CHD is a common chronic disease that affects the quality of life (QoL) and self-efficacy of adolescents. This study compares the effectiveness of self-care education by face-to-face method and video clip (VC) on self-efficacy and QoL in late adolescents with CHD. Methods: This research was a non-randomized clinical trial. A total of 111 late adolescents aged 18 to 21 years with CHD referred to Rajaie Cardiovascular, Medical, and Research Center in Tehran, Iran, were recruited by convenience sampling and non-randomly assigned to either control, face-to-face (F2F), or VC groups (37 subjects in each group). The F2F group participated in two educational sessions (each lasted 35-45 minutes) with an interval of one week, and the VC group received a 90-minute video to watch at home. The study data were collected before (T1) and two months after the intervention (T2), using the Generalized Self-Efficacy (GSE) scale and World Health Organization’s Quality of Life Questionnaire (WHOQOL-BREF) and analyzed in SPSS version 19 software using the Chi-square test, Fisher test, paired t test, Scheffé test, and ANOVA. The significance level was set at P<0.05. Results: Before the intervention, demographic variables, self-efficacy, and QoL were not significantly different in the three groups. The self-efficacy significantly increased in the F2F (P<0.004) and VC groups (P<0.031) at T2. Furthermore, QoL dimensions significantly improved in the F2F and VC groups (P<0.05), except for the environment dimension (P>0.05). Conclusion: Self-care education through F2F and VC significantly affects the self-efficacy and QoL of late adolescents. Such educational programs can greatly reduce the possible complications of the disease by empowering this group.

Background: Marital trust as a fiduciary relationship is very important for ensuring the continuity of married life, and identifying its factors are critical. Female nurses are prone to marital problems due to involvement in stressful jobs with different work shifts and long working hours. Accordingly, the present study aimed to investigate the mediating role of covert aggression in relationships between attachment behaviors and marital trust in female nurses. Methods: This correlational study was conducted using structural equation modeling (SEM) from March to June 2021. The statistical population consisted of all married female nurses (aged 25-55 years) working in hospitals in Shiraz City, Iran. Of whom, 310 were selected as the sample through two-stage cluster random sampling. The research instruments included the Trust in Close Relationships scale, the brief accessibility, responsiveness, and engagement (BARE) scale, and the couples relational aggression and victimization scale (CRAViS). The proposed model was evaluated by SEM, and indirect relationships were examined using the Bootstrap method in AMOS-24. The significance level was considered to be 0.05. Results: The results showed that both indirect paths of dimensions of attachment behaviors and a marital trust, mediated by covert aggression (destruction of social image and emotional withdrawal), were statistically significant (P<0.05). In addition, the results demonstrated a significant and direct relationship between dimensions of attachment behaviors and marital trust (P<0.01). Conclusion: The study results show the acceptable goodness of fit of the proposed model. Therefore, policymakers, family consultants, and psychiatric nurses are recommended to pay special attention to the effects of attachment behaviors and covert aggression on the marital trust of female nurses.
Study of sensorineural hearing loss in children with type 1 diabetic mellitus and the corelation with the duration of the disease in a tertiary care center
Authors: Gowda Mahesh , Pradeep N
Published: June 2023

Background: Annual type 1 diabetes cases in children under the age of 15 are estimated to be around 96,000 worldwide. The pathophysiological explanation for diabetes-related hearing loss is speculative. Usually, hearing loss is bilateral, gradual onset, affecting higher frequencies. It is a well-known entity in type 2 diabetic mellitus. This study aims at knowing the prevalence of hearing loss in children with type 1 diabetic mellitus with respect to duration of diabetic mellitus. Materials and Methods: A hospital-based comparative study was conducted involving 60 diabetic children and 60 healthy (control) children. Brainstem evoked response audiometry test was done in both groups. Reports were compared and prevalence of sensorineural hearing loss in diabetic children and the corelation with the duration of disease were analyzed. Results: The mean age among cases was 11.93±2.9 years and the mean age among controls was 9.08±1.92 years. Among diabetic group, 25 (41.7%) were male, 35 (58.3%) were female. Among non-diabetic group, 33 (55%) were male, 27 (45%) were female. Although none of the diabetic children had hearing loss, the differences in absolute latency waves I, II, III, IV, and V between diabetic group and non-diabetic group in the right ear and waves I and II and III and V between diabetic group and non-diabetic group in the left ear was found to be statistically significant (p<0.05). The difference in interpeak latency values of wave I and wave V between diabetic and non-diabetic group in right ear and between wave I–V and wave III–V in the left ear was found to be statistically strongly significant (p<0.001). This indicates prolonged absolute latency and interpeak latency among diabetics than non-diabetics. Since none of the diabetic children had hearing loss, the corelation of hearing loss with the duration of the disease was unable to obtain. Conclusion: This study stresses on the need for frequent follow-up and hearing evaluation of the type 1 diabetic children for the early detection of hearing loss.
Treatment of grade four hemorrhoids in a patient with acute myeloid leukemia with severe thrombocytopenia by laser hemorrhoidopexy: A case report
Authors: Goyal Neeraj , Tiwari Shraiya
Published: June 2023

Here, we present the case of a 66-year-old female patient with acute myeloid leukemia and severe thrombocytopenia who came with the complaints of painful per anal mass and bleeding per rectum for 1 year. The patient is a known case of obesity, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus and has received three cycles of chemotherapy with decitabine. On examination, she was found to have fourth- degree hemorrhoids at 3, 7, and 11 oclock positions with acute edematous changes. We successfully treated this patient with laser hemorrhoidopexy, whereby laser energy was delivered to each hemorrhoidal cushion. While lasers for the successful treatment of grade 2 and 3 hemorrhoids are well documented in the literature, we successfully treated this patient with prolapsing fourth-degree hemorrhoids with just laser energy delivery. With these results, we would also like to consider laser hemorrhoidopexy as an effective treatment option for four-degree hemorrhoids for which open Milligan–Morgan hemorrhoidectomy and stapler hemorrhoidectomy are currently considered treatment options.

Authors: Ali Nawaz , Kumar Singh Khwairakpam Amit
Published: June 2023

We report a rare case of primary scrotal lipoma in a 20-year-old patient which clinically mimics a left triorchidism. The patients presented with the left testicular swelling and the ultrasonography of the scrotum revealed an inhomogeneous hyperechoic mass with an inconclusive report. The left scrotal hemi exploration was planned, and intraoperatively, it was found to be a paratesticular mass with an equivalent size corresponding to the left testicle, separate from the left testicle. The histopathology confirms the lipomatous swelling. The post-operative period remains uneventful and the patient has been on follow-up for the past 1 year with no relapse.

Published: June 2023

Sirenomelia also called mermaid syndrome is a congenital, rare, lethal, multisystemic human malformation of unknown etiology. The characteristic feature of sirenomelia is the fusion of the lower limbs, resulting in the appearance of a mermaid’s tail, and thus the name “mermaid syndrome.” This condition is also characterized by various severe urogenital abnormalities and the presence of a singular umbilical cord blood vessel, and it is more common in infants of diabetic mothers and in monozygotic twins. The incidence is around 1 in 60,000–70,000 pregnancies. The majority of affected fetuses are stillborn, whereas the rest of the live-born die in the early neonatal period due to complications of the gastrointestinal and urogenital systems. We are reporting a case of sirenomelia in a neonate born to an unregistered multipara mother. The baby had perinatal asphyxia, sirenomelia, dextrocardia, low set ears, lymphatic malformation, bilateral renal agenesis, absent external genitalia and anus, single umbilical artery, and congenital corneal clouding. There was no antenatal ultrasonography done and the baby died at 6 h of life.

Lexical indicators of profit and loss in Spanish shareholder letters
Authors: Carbajo Coronado Blanca
Published: June 2023

Through a case, frequency, and collocational study, this work aims to detect linguistic differences between the letters to shareholders of profitable and loss-making companies. In a sample of 50 letters from each group, two lexical categories were analysed, verbs and eventive nouns, using the corpus manager Sketch Engine. The results indicated that verbs and eventive nouns with an absolute frequency of at least five occurrences overlap in both corpora by 95.7 per cent and 95.8 per cent, respectively. The frequency analysis showed that those with significantly higher frequency in one corpus denoted events or activities that were to be expected for companies in their group, such as aumentar (‘increase’), crecimiento (‘growth’), or cumplimiento (‘compliance’), in the profitable companies; but terms such as relanzar (‘relaunch’), revalorización (‘revaluation’), or pérdida (‘loss’) in the loss-making companies. The analysis of the combinatorial properties of these verbs and nouns revealed subtle but significant differences between the two groups. In the case of verbs, the choice of the direct object is key, and in the case of nouns, qualifying and adverbial adjectives are crucial, as well as the Theme complements.

Published: June 2023

Objective: To explore the available literature relating to lethal yellowing (LY) in order to assess the susceptibility of royal palms (Roystonea spp.) to this disease.
Design/methodology/approach: Bibliographic material in English and Spanish was consulted in physical and digital libraries in search of unequivocal and plausible LY reports in Roystonea palms. Information gathered was then reviewed and discussed.
Results: We found evidence of LY susceptibility of royal palms dating back to the beginning of the 20th century. In addition to Mexico, possible LY outbreaks in Roystonea palms might have occurred in Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and Antigua and Barbuda.
Limitations on study/implications: Reports of LY predating molecular diagnostic tools, particularly in Roystonea palms, cannot be assumed as unequivocal evidence of susceptibility to this disease.
Findings/conclusions: Royal palms have shown evidence of susceptibility to the LY pathogen throughout the Caribbean Basin. In light of this, their potential role as long-term phytoplasma reservoirs should be examined in order to better comprehend this disease’s pathosystem

Rad analizira prelijevanja volatilnosti cijena između tržišta dobara i financijskih tržišta u svrhu istraživanja međusobne povezanosti i integracije tržišta te njihovog potencijala pri diverzifikaciji rizika portfelja. U radu su analizirane cijene zlata i srebra, cijene nafte te devizni tečajevi eura i britanske funte te je korištena Diebold-Yilmaz metodologija indeksa prelijevanja za visokofrekventne tjedne podatke od 1988. do 2020. godine. Utvrđeno je kako su ukupna prelijevanja među dobrima i deviznim tečajevima 25.7% te se indeks prelijevanja volatilnosti tijekom analiziranog perioda kreće većinom između 25% i 50% s ekstremima tijekom globalne financijske krize i za vrijeme pandemije COVIDa-19. To ukazuje na snažnu integraciju tržišta dobara i financijskih tržišta, pogotovo u kriznim razdobljima. Također, rezultati rada sugeriraju da su kretanja cijene srebra pod najmanjim utjecajem prelijevanja s ostalih tržišta te stoga srebro može poslužiti pri diverzifikaciji rizika. Doprinos rada postojećoj literaturi je sljedeći: Prvo, analizom transmisijskih procesa pokazana su značajna prelijevanja volatilnosti između tržišta roba i deviznih tečajeva, što ukazuje na postojanje integracije između različitih tržišta. Također, analizira se dugi vremenski period te dinamička analiza pokazuje pojačana prelijevanja volatilnosti u periodima globalnih kriza. Drugo, rezultati analize mogu pomoći profesionalnim prognostičarima pri prognoziranju te financijskim analitičarima za pružanje sveobuhvatne investicijske analize. Menadžeri i investitori tako mogu dizajnirati optimalne instrumente zaštite od neželjenih kretanja na financijskim tržištima i tržištima dobara. Investitori imaju koristi od diverzifikacije portfelja, a informacijski sadržaj dobiven analizom prelijevanja volatilnosti može se koristiti za procjenu potencijalnih determinanti budućih povrata prilagođenih riziku, što bi im pomoglo u donošenju odluka o ulaganju.
Evaluación en la educación médica, una propuesta optimista

Published: June 2023

La evaluación educativa ha sido un tema complejo de analizar a lo largo de los años, sin embargo, las diversas estrategias han ido creciendo con el tiempo, constituyéndose en uno de los problemas que más preocupa a los docentes de nuestros días, dado por la dificultad de lograr medios idóneos para llegar a una justa y válida evaluación del aprendizaje. Lo que si se tiene claro es que el concepto implica múltiples factores, no solo establecer hasta qué punto los educandos alcanzan metas educativas preestablecidas, sino también la calidad de los programas, la actitud y aptitud docente al igual que su desempeño, los insumos y estrategias metodológicas utilizadas e incluso el mismo contenido curricular. 

En medicina, este proceso es aún más complejo, teniendo que cuenta que es una ciencia extensa y de constante cambio, cuya enseñanza y aprendizaje se constituye en un reto tanto para los formadores como para los estudiantes. En el campo educativo, el alumno está obligado a adquirir, además de un volumen impresionante de información, las habilidades y valores establecidos para el ejercicio de la medicina, y los atributos esenciales de la buena instrucción universitaria, como son interés continuo en la superación académica y en el aprendizaje independiente, adaptabilidad para el cambio, habilidad para pensar de manera crítica, para educar, y para comunicarse claramente. Todo ello con sentido humanista y social. Si se consideran esos objetivos educacionales, el médico debe ser educado y evaluado como clínico, como científico, como humanista, y como docente.
Változó tendenciák az Állam- és Jogtudományok nemzetközi folyóiratlistájának MTA besorolásában a 2017-es és 2023-as listák alapján
Authors: Sasvári Péter , Fejes Zsuzsanna
Published: June 2023

Tanulmányunkban azt vizsgáljuk, hogy a tudományos és doktori bizottságok által közzétett folyóiratlisták milyen szempontok szerint kerülnek besorolásra ABCD kategóriákba, és ez a besorolás hogyan változik a nemzetközi listák MTA által történő felülvizsgálata során. Jelen tanulmány írásának idején, a 2017. évben közzétett listák felülvizsgálata a 2022. év során megtörtént, és az új lista 2023 június 1-től hatályba lép.

Az állam- és jogtudományok területén a korábbi 28%-ról 89%-ra változott a Scopus által indexált folyóiratok aránya, és hasonlóan a többi tudományterületen is legalább 70% feletti ez az arány, ami feltételezésünk szerint a modellváltó egyetemek teljesítményértékelésének és finanszírozási rendszerének átalakulásával, különösen a nemzetközi rangsorokba való bekerülés szempontjaival magyarázható. Az intézményi érdek pozitív hatásai tehát jól kirajzolódnak az MTA nemzetközi folyóiratlista követelményeinek változásaiban. Ugyanakkor az egyéni tudományos előmeneteli érdeket figyelembe véve már nem tűnik olyan kedvezőnek a helyzet. A 2023. június 1-től érvényes lista már nem tartalmazza a 2017-es lista 73%-át (942 folyóiratot), mivel a nemzetközi A, B, C és D kategóriás folyóiratok közül kikerültek a Scopus által NEM indexált folyóiratok.

Így azok a pályázók, akik ilyen folyóiratokba írtak korábban, az MTMT 2023-as aktualizálásánál a teljesítményük a nemzetközi A és B (de C és D kategóriánál is) esetenként számszakilag csökkennek, extrém esetben kinullázodhatnak! Ennek oka, hogy ugyan a Scopus felé történő elmozdulás dicséretes és előremutató, hiszen segíti a teljesítmények nemzetközi láthatóságát, azonban ennek az ára az, hogy sokak eddigi szakmai tevékenysége több értékelési pontnál (az MTA doktori előmenetelnél és az azok függvényében végzett értékeléseknél) kiesik.
