Authors: Vístín-Chasque Rosa Clemencia , Romero-Romero Clara Daniela
Published: May 2024

Ecuador as a State of rights and justice has a constitution that guarantees the enjoyment of rights under equal conditions for all citizens. Among them, the right to resistance is protected by several instruments of Ecuadorian legislation and international treaties, without restrictions for its exercise. The investigative work used a proactive critical analysis with a qualitative and cross-sectional approach on the right to resistance in the context of the social protests that occurred in the national territory in June 2022 with an exploratory and descriptive design. The documentary technique was used to collect data on previous research by other authors and national and international organizations that present a theoretical and legal support for the development of the research. It was determined that, although the right to resistance and protest are protected by the Constitution, there is no formal regulation to determine its scope and application. Among the conclusions it was possible to establish that the State of Exception established by executive decree 455 arose as a mechanism to protect internal stability under the cause of "serious internal commotion" suspending the enjoyment of the right to resistance and other rights involved.

Published: May 2024

The research work was oriented to the design of the student evaluation process at the Liceo Naval Quito. The research had a quantitative approach under a documentary modality, and the study was descriptive. The population consisted in 60 people (3 members of the management staff and 57 teachers), to whom a survey was applied to identify the student evaluation process developed in the institution. The data obtained were processed and analyzed by comparing them with the respective theoretical information, resulting in the fact that the current process needs to fully comply with what is established in the instructions for applying student evaluation since compliance with specific procedures and activities is omitted. Inherent to it, such as the elaboration and delivery of the partial learning report, needs to communicate to the students that they can improve the final average; erroneous delivery of the information to the Vice Chancellor and Coordinator, among others. Based on the results, the conclusions and recommendations addressed to the institutional authorities were prepared, the same ones responsible for complying with the provisions and using them to benefit a correct student evaluation process.

The writer tries to analyse the encounter between Christian faith and the local culture particularly that of Muna culture of Southeast Sulawesi. Formerly the missionaries seemed to come in with their particular theological framework, while the local people live in their inherited way of life and traditional rites, such as worshipping their ancestors, ritual to sacred places, etc. The missiological challenges would be, how the Christian faith could be accepted fully by the local people and the Christian values could also support the dynamic of the local culture. The answer would be openness of both sides. From the Church’s side, it is actually a challenge in fostering contextual theology, particularly following the anthropological model. Opennes to learn the richness of the local culture is jus a must.
Dimensi Perutusan dalam Ekaristi Sebagai Persekutuan, Kenangan, dan Perayaan Kehidupan
Authors: Lembaga Evodius Karunia
Published: May 2024

The encyclical letter Ecclesia de Eucharistia of Pope John Paul II,which states that the Church lives from the Eucharist, is the essence of the mystery of the Church. The faithfuls live from the Eucharist where Christ himself is present and sacrifices himself for human beings. Thus, the Eucharist is the heart of the life of the Church. Eucharist as communion signifies that it creates a brotherhood and communion among the faithful, who shall be stated in brotherhood with other fellows outside the Church. The Eucharist as memorial signifies that the memories of the work of God’s redemption in His son, Jesus Christ,are actualized here and now so that the work of salvation presented in the Eucharist should energize the daily life of the faithful. Eucharist as celebration of life indicates that the work of the loving God given to mankind invites people to celebrate it along with others who do not know Christ. The mission dimension of the holy Eucharist means that the work of salvation must be carried out by every Christian throughout the world.

Modelling of Electric Transport Overhead DC Lines for Mobile Energy Storage System Optimization
Authors:   , Staņa Ģirts
Published: May 2024

The Doctoral Thesis is devoted to the study of a solution for improving the energy efficiency of electric public transport by using mobile supercapacitor-based energy storage systems. The modelling variants of electric transport overhead DC lines for the simulation of total energy consumption are analysed. It was found that the additional mass of a mobile energy storage system does not increase the energy consumption of the electric transport by more than 5 %, while the possibility of storing the energy recovered during braking reduces the total energy consumption from the supply substation by up to 40 %. A method for the design of a mobile energy storage system is described, considering the amount of energy to be recovered and the progressive deterioration of the supercapacitor cell parameters. It is found that the cost of energy saved during the lifetime of the supercapacitors is significantly higher than their cost of purchasing and installing, especially at higher electricity prices.

In this paper, the motion of a circular particle in a lid-driven square cavity with the power-law fluid is studied by using the diffuse interface lattice Boltzmann method, and the study mainly considers the effects of the particle's initial position, the power-law index, the Reynolds number, and the particle size. The numerical results show that the circular particle is first in a centrifugal motion under the effect of inertia, and it finally moves steadily on the limit cycle. Furthermore, it is also found that the initial position of the particle has no influence on the limit cycle. For a shear-thinning fluid flow, the limit cycle moves towards the bottom right corner of the square cavity. Moreover, the particle velocity is small, and the period of the particle motion is long. On the other hand, in the case of shear-thickening fluid flow, the limit cycle moves towards the top left corner of the cavity. In addition, the particle velocity is large, and the period of the particle motion is short.With the increase of Reynolds number, the limit cycle moves towards the bottom right corner of the square cavity, which is caused by a strong fluid flow field. Meanwhile, the particle velocity becomes larger, and the period of the particle motion is shorter. With the increase of particle size, the effect of confinement of the cavity boundary becomes significant, and the circular particle is pushed towards the center of the cavity. In this case, the limit cycle shrinks towards the center of the cavity. The circular particle squeezes the secondary vortices, especially when the circular particle is located in the bottom left, bottom right and top left corners. Additionally, the appearance of the circular particle has a significant influence on the position of the primary vortex, which changes periodically near the position of the primary vortex without the particle. It is also observed that the influence of the circular particle becomes more significant as its size increases and the power-law index decreases.

In general, more attention is paid to how to improve the characteristic parameters of plasma in plasma applications. However, in some cases, it is necessary to produce plasma with low-electron density, such as in the laboratory simulation of ionospheric plasma in space science. In this study, a low-density plasma is generated by electron beams passing through a silicon nitride transmission window under low pressure condition. The transmission properties of electron beam passing through silicon nitride films are investigated by Monte Carlo simulation, and the plasma feature is studied by a planar Langmuir probe and a digital camera. It is found that the plasma exhibits a conical structure with its apex located at the transmission window. At a constant pressure, the cone angle of conical plasma decreases with the electron energy increasing. This is qualitatively consistent with the Monte Carlo simulation result. The frequency of electron-neutral collisions increases as the working pressure rising, which leads the plasma cone angle to increase. When the beam current is reduced from 10 μA to 0.5 μA at 40 keV, the electron density decreases, in a range between 105 and 106 cm–3, while the electron temperature does not change significantly but approaches 1 eV. It can be inferred that the electron density decreases with the distance z from the transmission window in the incident direction of the electron beam. A low-density plasma of less than 105 cm–3 can be obtained further away from the transmission window.

Accurate prediction of the structurally diverse complementarity determining region heavy chain 3 (CDR-H3) loop structure remains a primary and long-standing challenge for antibody modeling. Here, we present the H3-OPT toolkit for predicting the 3D structures of monoclonal antibodies and nanobodies. H3-OPT combines the strengths of AlphaFold2 with a pre-trained protein language model, and provides a 2.24 Å average RMSD
Cα
between predicted and experimentally determined CDR-H3 loops, thus outperforming other current computational methods in our non-redundant high-quality dataset. The model was validated by experimentally solving three structures of anti-VEGF nanobodies predicted by H3-OPT. We examined the potential applications of H3-OPT through analyzing antibody surface properties and antibody-antigen interactions. This structural prediction tool can be used to optimize antibody-antigen binding, and to engineer therapeutic antibodies with biophysical properties for specialized drug administration route.

Bacillus cereus
biovar
anthracis
(
Bcbva
) is an atypical anthrax-causing bacterium, inflicting wildlife fatalities across African rainforest ecosystems. The pathogen’s virulence in one of our closest living relatives, the chimpanzee, together with human serological evidence, suggests
Bcbva
is zoonotic. While classical
B. anthracis
-induced anthrax has been described to affect the central nervous system at a progressive disease-state, the neuroinfectiology of
Bcbva
is yet unknown. Here we characterised the pathogen’s neuro-invasiveness via gross pathological assessment, ultra-high resolution quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging and histological analysis on four brains, which were extracted from naturally deceased wild chimpanzees in Taï National Park, Côte d’Ivoire.Based on macroscopically evident pial vessel congestion and haemorrhages as well as cortical siderosis detected via MRI, we concluded that
Bcbva
induced meningitis analogous to
B. anthracis
. Further, histological visualisation of bacteria and leukocytes in the subarachnoid space evidenced the bacterium’s capability to breach the arachnoid barrier.
Bcbva
was detected in the brain parenchyma of all four cases. This indicates a higher ability to transgress the glia limitans and therefore exhibits a higher neuroinvasiveness compared to
B. anthracis
that predominantly stays confined to the meninges. Heightened glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) expression but little morphological gliosis suggest a rapid disease progression leading to host-death within hours to a few days after central nervous system invasion.Overall our results reveal
Bcbva
’s ability to breach blood-brain barriers which results in a pronounced neuropathogenicity.
Bcbva
causes extensive damage to the meninges and the brain parenchyma, as well as rapid and massive digestion of brain extracellular matrix in chimpanzees and potentially so in humans in case of zoonotic spillover.

The success of an organism depends on the molecular and ecological adaptations that promote its beneficial fitness. Parasitoids are valuable biocontrol agents for successfully managing agricultural pests, and they have evolved diversified strategies to adapt to both the physiological condition of hosts and the competition of other parasitoids. Here, we deconstructed the parasitic strategies in a highly successful parasitoid,
Trichopria drosophilae
, which parasitizes a broad range of
Drosophila
hosts, including the globally invasive species
D. suzukii
. We found that
T. drosophilae
had developed specialized venom proteins that arrest host development to obtain more nutrients via secreting tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), as well as a unique type of cell— teratocytes—that digest host tissues for feeding by releasing trypsin proteins. In addition to the molecular adaptations that optimize nutritional uptake, this pupal parasitoid has evolved ecologically adaptive strategies including the conditional tolerance of intraspecific competition to enhance parasitic success in older hosts and the obligate avoidance of interspecific competition with larval parasitoids. Our study not only demystifies how parasitoids weaponize themselves to colonize formidable hosts but also provided empirical evidence of the intricate coordination between the molecular and ecological adaptations that drive evolutionary success.

Air pollution significantly impact lung cancer progression, but there is a lack of a comprehensive molecular characterization of clinical samples associated with air pollution. Here, we performed a proteogenomic analysis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) in 169 female never-smokers from the Xuanwei area (XWLC cohort), where coal smoke is the primary contributor to the high lung cancer incidence. Genomic mutation analysis revealed XWLC as a distinct subtype of LUAD separate from cases associated with smoking or endogenous factors. Mutational signature analysis suggested that Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) is the major risk factor in XWLC. The BaP-induced mutation hotspot, EGFR-G719X, was present in 20% of XWLC which endowed XWLC with elevated MAPK pathway activations and worse outcomes compared to common
EGFR
mutations. Multi-omics clustering of XWLC identified four clinically relevant subtypes. These subgroups exhibited distinct features in biological processes, genetic alterations, metabolism demands, immune landscape, tumor microbiota composition and radiomic features. Finally,
MAD1 and TPRN
were identified as novel potential therapeutic targets in XWLC. Our study provides a valuable resource for researchers and clinicians to explore prevention and treatment strategies for air-pollution-associated lung cancers.
Sobre la posible naturaleza discreta de las categorías léxicas
Authors: Horno-Chéliz María del Carmen
Published: May 2024

Dentro del debate clásico entre la naturaleza discreta o continua de los fenómenos lingüísticos, existe una controversia acerca de la relación que mantienen entre sí las distintas categorías léxicas y sobre la relación que mantienen, internamente, las distintas palabras que forman parte de una determinada categoría. En esta contribución presentamos los resultados de los estudios topológicos que aporta la Neurolingüística y de los estudios de adquisición, pérdida, procesamiento y almacenamiento que se realizan en Psicolingüística para tratar de comprobar si existe algún indicio a favor o en contra de la naturaleza discreta de las categorías léxicas, con especial atención a la distinción entre nombres y verbos y a las lenguas indoeuropeas. Como resultado de este trabajo, consideramos que existen indicios suficientes para considerar que los hablantes distinguen de forma discreta y homogénea las categorías léxicas, pero que, además, establecen una serie de correlaciones adicionales entre los miembros de estas categorías y diferentes propiedades (entre las que destaca el componente semántico). En este sentido, creemos necesario que se distinga entre estos dos niveles de estudio: la naturaleza discreta y automatizada de las categorías léxicas y las diversas correlaciones que tanto los hablantes como los propios investigadores pueden hacer con distintas variables de estudio.
Diagnostic Implication of Skin Tubercles in Choking Case: An Autopsy Case

Tuberous sclerosis is a genetic disorder that affects every organ system, has a diverse presentation and progression, and can be life threatening. The authors encountered a case of a choking death caused by a fragment of rice cake. The deceased was an inmate of a social welfare institution due to mental retardation. The deceased was a 60-year-old male, 170 cm in height, and weighed 74 kg. Autopsy revealed multiple tubercles on the face, undigested food material, including rice cake, in the stomach, cardiomegaly (460 g) with mild coronary atherosclerosis, fatty infiltration into the myocardium, severe pulmonary congestion and edema with froth in the bronchus, and a yellowishbrown mass in each kidney. The brain showed firmness of the cortex in the parietal lobe and blurring of the white-grey matter interface. Histologically, the kidney masses were consistent with angiomyolipoma, and the brain lesion revealed abnormal neurons and astrocytes with a ballooned appearance and glassy cytoplasm, suggestive of tuberous sclerosis. Fatty infiltration and focal interstitial fibrosis were observed in the heart. Toxicology results were negative. The authors determined that the autopsy findings were consistent with tuberous sclerosis and that it may have been the cause of mental retardation, which served as an indirect cause of choking.

A geometric morphometric protocol to correct postmortem body arching in fossil fishes

Published: May 2024

Postmortem body curvature introduces error in fish morphometric data. Compared to living fish, the causes of such body curvature in fossils may be due to additive taphonomic processes that have been widely studied. However, a protocol that helps to correct its effect upon morphometric data remains unexplored. Here, we test two different mathematical approaches (multivariate regression and the so-called ‘unbending functions’) available to tackle fish geometric morphometric data in two exceptionally preserved gonorynchiformes fossil fishes, Rubiesichthys gregalis and Gordichthys conquensis, from the Las Hoyas deposits (Early Cretaceous, Spain). Although both methods successfully correct body curvature (i.e., removing misleading geometric variation), our results show that traditional approaches applied in living fishes might not be appropriate to fossil ones, because of the additional anatomical alterations. Namely, the best result for 2D fossil fishes is achieved by correcting the arching of the specimens (mathematically “unbending” them). Ultimately, the effect of body curvature on morphometric data is largely taxon independent and morphological diversity mitigates its effect, but size is an important factor to take into account (because larger individuals tend to be less curved).
