Luís Seoane sabía que toda arte auténtica vén sendo coma unha hermenéutica aplicada á comprensión do mundo e da existencia. E sabíao tanto que o propio Seoane deixou escrito que toda a súa obra “pintada ou escrita” constituía “un intento de acada-la súa salvación”. Acadouna? A resposta será positiva se reparamos na festa hoxe institucionalizada, conmemorativa, a el dedicada, do Día das Letras Galegas.
Dicionario galego de televisión
Authors: Pazó Fernández Edith
Published: April 2022

O Dicionario galego de televisión é unha proposta que nace da necesidade urxente de lle procurar un nome galego a cada elemento da produción televisiva, que nos permita comprender e identificar a que nos estamos a referir en cada momento desde as distintas especialidades que interveñen nela: a telecomunicación, a iluminación, a edición, a preprodución, a redacción xornalística, a programación, a análise de audiencias, a deontoloxía, a teoría da comunicación, a xestión de medios etc. Na súa elaboración tívose a vontade de ofrecer a través del algo máis ca un compendio de termos e procurouse ir trazando un deseño básico do funcionamento da televisión mediante a explicación das palabras coas que os técnicos se refiren cada día aos distintos aspectos do seu traballo. Así, a escolla da relación de lemas desta obra foi baseada non só en obras terminolóxicas, senón, e sobre todo, en textos de uso profesional, en documentación de empresas de servizos televisivos, editados ou de circulación electrónica, e en fontes orais. Ao pé dos termos máis usuais do medio, incorporáronse nomes de estándares, de organismos reguladores, dos principais operadores, nun formato lexicográfico aberto, de certo carácter enciclopédico, que procura, a través de algo máis de 3000 definicións, introducir o lector no mundo da televisión.

Authors: Puente Esparza Martha Luisa , Valle Ramírez Felipe
Published: April 2022

en el marco de la apertura comercial y de la gran afluencia de inversión extranjera directa (ied), se propicia la incorporación de México a la organización para la Cooperación y desarrollo económico(ocde) para atraerla, adquiriendo con ello el compromiso de aceptar sus lineamientos sobre las operaciones entre partes relacionadas y los precios de transferencia, cuyo objetivo es regular las estrategias comerciales que los grupos multinacionales utilizan para incrementar sus rendimientos; esto lo realizan por medio de la fijación de los precios entre compañías del grupo, evadiendo o eludiendo el pago de los impuestos correspondientes en el lugar donde se originan los ingresos. El objetivo de esta investigación es establecer si, en el país, la normatividad tributaria sobre precios de transferencia para este tipo de operaciones ha logrado evitar la evasión o elusión de las empresas que operan en el marco de grupos multinacionales. Por otra parte, se analizan los estudios efectuados por los organismos internacionales sobre el tema de la efectividad de esta normatividad, coincidentes en la gran influencia e importancia que ejercen los países desarrollados y su inversión en economías en vías de desarrollo.

Educación ambiental, participación comunitaria y desarrollo sustentable: los casos de los municipios de Juanacatlán y El Salto, Jalisco.
Authors: Palos Delgadillo Humberto , Sánchez Gutiérrez José , Gómez Nieves Salvador
Published: April 2022

El grave deterioro ecológico y la pérdida de flora y fauna en los municipios de Juanacatlán y El Salto Jalisco, en particular por un río y una cascada muertos, debido fundamentalmente a las concentraciones de contaminantes que generan las empresas establecidas en el corredor industrial de esa región, ha dañado la salud de la población. Lo anterior refleja el casi nulo desarrollo sustentable en esa parte del estado de Jalisco. El presente trabajo estudia la participación comunitaria con base en la educación ambiental y la sustentabilidad. Es decir, a la sociedad se le piden dos cosas: a) que se involucre en acciones de conservación del medio ambiente y b) que exija a las empresas y autoridades correspondientes, el cumplimiento a la legislación vigente a fin de obtener respuestas concretas a favor de la naturaleza. El estudio utiliza el método exploratorio bajo el supuesto de que son relevantes las habilidades de comunicación entre las partes interesadas por el cambio social. Al respecto se plantea un modelo que contempla la información retroalimentadora entre ciudadanos libres sin ningún matiz partidista o religioso, que también busquen el bien común e influyan en el desarrollo comunitario sustentable.

Authors: Pineda Ortega Pablo
Published: April 2022

La comunidad financiera internacional perdió confianza en la estrategia económica del gobierno mexicano en su manejo de la crisis financiera de mediados de los noventa, lo cual condujo a una fuerte devaluación con lo que se disparó un proceso inflacionario que llevó a un incremento de precios del 59% en 1995. Otras consecuencias de esto consistieron en una fuerte caída del crecimiento económico y un intenso incremento de las tasas de interés, además de que un importante número de deudores de la banca dejaron de servir sus deudas. Todo ello condujo a la virtual quiebra bancaria y, con la finalidad de proteger a los ahorradores, el gobierno decidió intervenir mediante el rescate de los bancos. En este trabajo se analiza el camino que siguió el gobierno mexicano para recuperar la solvencia, lo cual se contrasta con las distintas estrategias alternativas que para ese propósito se han echado a andar en otras experiencias de crisis financieras a lo largo del globo. a manera de conclusión se analizan en forma breve los principales razonamientos que se han esgrimido en contra de la alternativa seguida por las autoridades de nuestro país, lo que permite ponderar lo adecuado de la misma.

Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) and Lymphocyte-Monocyte Ratio (LMR) as Covid-19 Screening Parameters
Authors: Syahrini Heny , Fadjari Trinugroho Heri , Dalimoenthe Nadjwa Zamalek
Published: April 2022

Covid-19 diagnosis generally uses RT-PCR as the gold standard to detect coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2); however, this method requires advanced laboratory equipment. Alternatively, Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) and Lymphocyte-Monocyte Ratio (LMR) can be used to identify viral infection. The study aimed: (1) to compare each NLR and LMR ratio in patients with and without COVID-19 and (2) to test the effectiveness of these ratios in identifying COVID-19. The study was conducted at the Haji Adam Malik Central General Hospital by acquiring 87 medical records data. The complete hematologic profile was analyzed from patients with and without COVID-19. The NLR and LMR ratio accuracy were analyzed as a screening tool for COVID-19. The AUC of NLR was 0.638, with cut-off ≤ 2.49, 47.6% sensitivity, and 80% specificity; therefore, the NLR accuracy as a screening for COVID-19 was defined as not good (just sufficient) because of AUC <0,7. The AUC of LMR was 0.661, with cut-off ≥ 3.23, 45.2% sensitivity, and 82.2% specificity; therefore, the LMR accuracy as a screening parameter for COVID-19 is defined as not good (just sufficient) because of AUC <0,7. There were significant differences in hematologic profile in neutrophil, lymphocyte, NLR, LMR between the patients in the COVID-19 group and non-COVID-19 group. NLR and LMR cannot be used as a screening tool because the Area Under Curve (AUC) is not good enough (just sufficient) in detecting COVID-19.

Authors: Azzaubadilluah Azzaubadilluah , Santoso Andreas PutroRagil
Published: April 2022

Menstruation is the process of releasing the endometrial lining of the uterus due to the release of the hormones estrogen and progesterone, causing bleeding after ovulation from the uterus for approximately fourteen days at regular intervals. The first three days of menstruation is a condition where there is heavy bleeding, so there is iron loss, which can cause a decrease in hemoglobin levels and there is a risk of causing anemia. The occurrence of anemia gives an illustration of morphological changes of erythrocytes. The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between hemoglobin levels and erythrocyte morphology on the third day of menstruation. This type of research is analytic observational with a cross-sectional approach. The sample in this study were 30 students from the Health Faculty of Nahdlatul Ulama University Surabaya who experienced menstruation on the third day. The hemoglobin level was analysed using the Hematology Analyzer Xp-300 method. A blood smear test with Giemsa stain were used for abnormalities erythrocytes morphology observation. The results of the statistical analysis used the chi-square test showed there was no relationship between hemoglobin levels and erythrocyte size (p-value = 0.836), erythrocyte shape (p-value = 0.416). However, there was a relationship between hemoglobin levels and erythrocyte colour (p<0.05). Based on the study result, it can be concluded that there is no relationship between hemoglobin levels and erythrocyte morphology on the third day of menstruation.
Predictive-DPC Based on Duty Cycle Control of PWM Rectifier under Unbalanced Network
Authors: Mohammed Chikouche Tarik , Hartani Kada , Terras Tahar
Published: April 2022

This work proposes a predictive direct power control (P-DPC) technique of a PWM rectifier, based on a duty cycle control method, using a new definition of the instantaneous reactive power in the predefined cost function, able to operate under balanced and unbalanced grid voltages. In conventional DPC, the use of a single voltage vector during a control period leads to high power ripples and variable switching frequency. To overcome these problems, a duty cycle control is introduced in P-DPC to achieve performance improvement in terms of power ripple reduction, dynamic response and robustness against unbalanced grid voltages. Its main characteristic is the use of several voltage vectors applied during a control period. In effect, the duration of the selected vector is determined by minimizing the active power ripple during a control period. Simulation results are presented to confirm the theoretical study developed.

Rarely, immunophenotypically immature B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) carries an immunoglobulin- MYC rearrangement (IG-MYC-r). This can result in diagnostic confusion with Burkitt lymphoma/leukemia and use of individualized treatment schedules of unproven efficacy. Here we compare the molecular characteristics of these conditions and investigate historic clinical outcome data. We identified 90 cases registered in a national BCP-ALL clinical trial/registry. When present, diagnostic material underwent cytogenetic, exome, methylome and transcriptome analyses. The outcomes analyzed were 3-year event-free survival and overall survival. IG-MYC-r was identified in diverse cytogenetic backgrounds, co-existing with either established BCP-ALL-specific abnormalities (high hyperdiploidy, n=3; KMT2A-rearrangement, n=6; iAMP21, n=1; BCR-ABL1, n=1); BCL2/BCL6-rearrangements (n=15); or, most commonly, as the only defining feature (n=64). Within this final group, precursor-like V(D)J breakpoints predominated (8/9) and KRAS mutations were common (5/11). DNA methylation identified a cluster of V(D)J-rearranged cases, clearly distinct from Burkitt leukemia/lymphoma. Children with IG-MYC-r within that subgroup had a 3-year event-free survival of 47% and overall survival of 60%, representing a high-risk BCP-ALL. To develop effective management strategies this group of patients must be allowed access to contemporary, minimal residual disease-adapted, prospective clinical trial protocols.

Published: April 2022

This study was conducted to compare the reproductive and economic performance of turkey hen bred by natural mating (NM) and artificial insemination (AI) using fresh and chilled semen. The breeding trial was designed under a completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of three treatment groups (T1 = NM following ♂1:♀4, T2 = AI with fresh semen and T3= AI with chilled semen). A total of 48 turkey hens and 8 toms were used with 4 replicates in each treatment group. Semen collection was performed by using the abdominal massage technique. Semen aliquots was diluted by modified ringer‟s solution at the ratio of 1:2 and then stored at 3−50C temperature in refrigerator for 24 hours. Undiluted fresh pooled semen was deposited into the vagina @ 0.02 ml/hen within 30 minutes of collection; and pooled diluted chilled semen was deposited @ 0.2 ml/hen at 4−5 pm in every week. Both NM and AI had no significant effect on egg production, egg weight, hatchability and survivability of poults. Significantly (P<0.01) highest fertility (89.71%) was obtained when the turkey hens were inseminated with fresh semen compared to chilled semen (60.77%) and even though natural mating (59.21%). Late embryonic mortality and dead in shell differed significantly (P<0.05) among the treatment groups but it was not due to use of breeding techniques. Profitability index and rate of return were higher (P<0.05) in the turkey hens inseminated by fresh and chilled semen. Therefore, the results of the study concluded that use of fresh and chilled semen increased fertility and reduced the cost of production.

Bu görüşmelerden elde edilen veriler, Suriyeli mültecilerin sosyo-kültürel entegrasyon algıları ve beklentileri çerçevesinde sosyal, kültürel, dinsel, mekânsal ve sınıfsal aidiyetleri temelinde analiz edilmiştir. Görüşmelerde sosyo-kültürel entegrasyon ve aidiyet duygusu çerçevesinde yapılan değerlendirmelerin ağırlıklı olarak maruz kalınan sosyal dışlanma deneyimleri ile beraber ele alındığı görülmüştür. Diğer taraftan sosyo-kültürel entegrasyonun deneyiminde önemli bir yere sahip olan öz-kimlik tanımlamaları mülteciler tarafından, mevcut olumsuz “Suriyeli” kimliği bağlamında değerlendirilerek, bu kimliğin kendileri üzerinde yarattığı baskı sonucunda aidiyet duygularının gelişemediğini ifade etmektedirler.

Published: April 2022

Ulusal ve uluslararası kaynaklar ilk altı ay sadece anne sütü ile emzirmeyi ve 24 aya kadar emzirmenin devamlılığını önermektedir. Emzirmenin fiziksel, psikolojik ve emosyonel açıdan hem anne hem de bebek için oldukça fazla yararı vardır. Tüm dünyada giderek artan fiziksel engelli anne sayısına rağmen halen fiziksel engelli annelerin emzirme ile ilgili yaşadıkları bazı engeller ve bilgi eksiklikleri bulunmaktadır. Fiziksel engelli anneler doğum sonu dönemde destek eksikliği, engellilik konusunda sağlık profesyonellerinin ve toplumun olumsuz tutumu ve uyarlanabilir ebeveynlik ekipmanlarının (emzirmeyi destekleyici ekipmanlar) sınırlı erişilebilirliği gibi birçok sorun ile karşılaşmaktadırlar. Bu nedenle doğum sonu dönemde fiziksel engelli annelerin emzirme süreçlerini destekleyen ve engelleyen faktörlerin belirlenmesi gerekmektedir. Bu derlemede, fiziksel engelli anneler arasında emzirmeyi destekleyen faktörler; “Adaptasyon ve Ekipman”, “Emzirme Pompası Kullanımı”, “Fiziksel Destek Alma”, “Akran Desteği Alma”; emzirmeyi engelleyen faktörler; “Destek Eksikliği”, “Engelliliğin Emzirmeye Olan Etkisi-Yaşanan Sağlık Sorunları”, “Bilgi Eksikliği”, “Anne Sütü Temini ve Devamlılığı”, “Sağlık Profesyonelleri ve Emzirme Danışmanları” başlıkları doğrultusunda ele alınmıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı doğum sonu dönemde fiziksel engelli anneler arasında emzirmeyi destekleyen ve engelleyen faktörleri incelemektir.

Published: April 2022

Bu çalışma Alkol ve Madde Bağımlılığı Tedavi ve Eğitim Merkezinde (AMATEM) tedavi gören bireylerin tedavi sürecindeki deneyimlerini ve taburculuk sonrası gereksinimlerini ortaya koymak amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışma tarama türünde betimsel bir araştırmadır. Ankara Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi AMATEM kliniğinde tedavi gören 76 alkol ya da madde kullanım bozukluğu tanısı konulmuş birey çalışmanın örneklemini oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmaya katılanların ağırlıklı olarak genç yetişkinlik döneminde, erkek, bekar ve eroin kullanımı olan bireylerden oluştuğu, alkol dışı psikoaktif madde kullananların yaş ortalamasının alkol kullananlara göre oldukça düşük olduğu, katılımcıların yaklaşık yarısının (%56,6) işsiz olduğu, 1/5’inin düzensiz çalıştığı ve ailesi ile yaşayanların çoğunlukta olduğu saptanmıştır. Katılımcıların tedavi ortamı olanakları ve tedavi ekibi hakkındaki değerlendirmeleri olumlu yöndedir. Katılımcıların en fazla güvenlik görevlileri ile ilgili sorun yaşadıkları tespit edilmiştir. Tedavi yöntemlerini yetersiz ve geliştirilebilir olarak görenlerin oranı yüksektir (%61,8). Düzenli iş olanağı, tıbbi tedavi, bireysel danışmanlık ve aile görüşmeleri taburculuk sonrası en fazla ihtiyaç duyulan hizmetlerdir. Katılımcılara göre Türkiye’deki tedavi merkezlerinin sayı ve kapasitesi az, tedavi süresi kısa ve tedavi yöntemleri yetersizdir. Uluslararası iyi uygulama örnekleri çerçevesinde tedavi seçenekleri artırılmalı, taburculuk sonrası sunulan rehabilitasyon ve toplumla yeniden bütünleşme hizmetleri güçlendirilmelidir

Drug resistance is an important problem hindering malaria elimination in tropical areas. Point mutations in Plasmodium falciparum dihydrofolate reductase (Pfdhfr) and dihydropteroate synthase (Pfdhps) genes confer resistance to antifolate drug, sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) while P. falciparum chloroquine-resistant transporter (Pfcrt) genes caused resistance to chloroquine (CQ). Decline in Pfdhfr/Pfdhps and Pfcrt mutations after withdrawal of SP and CQ has been reported. The aim of present study was to investigate the prevalence of Pfdhfr, Pfdhps, and Pfcrt mutation from 2 endemic areas of Thailand. All of 200 blood samples collected from western area (Thai-Myanmar) and southern area (Thai-Malaysian) contained multiple mutations in Pfdhfr and Pfdhps genes. The most prevalent haplotypes for Pfdhfr and Pfdhps were quadruple and double mutations, respectively. The quadruple and triple mutations of Pfdhfr and Pfdhps were common in western samples, whereas low frequency of triple and double mutations was found in southern samples, respectively. The Pfcrt 76T mutation was present in all samples examined. Malaria isolated from 2 different endemic regions of Thailand had high mutation rates in the Pfdhfr, Pfdhps, and Pfcrt genes. These findings highlighted the fixation of mutant alleles causing resistance of SP and CQ in this area. It is necessary to monitor the re-emergence of SP and CQ sensitive parasites in this area.
PARTICIPATORY ACTION RESEARCH AND PAYING IT FORWARD
Authors: Whalen Catherine
Published: April 2022

I sit here and ponder about the wisdom and knowledge I want to pass on in my guest editorial piece and think back to almost 30 years ago. I was 23 and thought I had the world figured out and ready to make my mark in life. I was certainly naïve enough to think I was prepared to educate the world and anyone else who might want to listen. Fresh out of university, I took the first teaching job offered which was located in a small mining town in north western Ontario. It was about that time someone informed me that I would change my career at least three times in my life span. Since then, I have not only changed my career from secondary school teacher of 24 years, to operating my own consulting business for several years, and then taking on an Assistant Professor role in a School of Education program as my current position in life: I have moved schools and institutions several times. Although life has taken me from coast to coast and institution to institution, I have maintained one facet of my life that has not waivered - that is the opportunity to teach and research.
ACTIVE RESEARCH IN THE AGE OF RECONCILIATION: A RELATIONSHIP-BASED APPROACH FOR NON-INDIGENOUS RESEARCHERS
Authors: Carreau Robert , Robinson Daniel B.
Published: April 2022

This article recounts a five-year journey connecting Acadian and Mi’kmaw schools in Nova Scotia, Canada. We trace the unfolding of relationships between minority school students and administrators through both natural and semi-structured dialogues. We believe this work contributes to the emerging field of research called for by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada, TRC (2015) “to advance understanding of reconciliation” (p. 331). Drawing upon Battiste (2000), our research design represents a journey in the four directions of the Medicine Wheel. This journey is superimposed on an action research cycle. Three primary recommendations are offered for future research, whether it is collaborative, community-based, or for independent academic requirements.

INTERDISCIPLINARY DESIGN TEAMS OF PRE-SERVICE AND IN-SERVICE TEACHERS: ISSUES WITH COLLABORATION
Authors: Brown Barbara , Hartwell Amber , Thomas Christy
Published: April 2022

Two post-secondary instructors and one K-12 Learning Commons teacher describe how interdisciplinary units of study were designed by undergraduate pre-service teachers and by in-service teachers in a junior high school. The interdisciplinary units focused on two or more disciplines and aimed to engage student learners in understanding a complex issue. Using a collaborative action research approach and through ongoing dialogue, the three educators worked together throughout the year to improve processes for supporting teachers in designing interdisciplinary units of study. Findings suggest teachers experience common challenges when working on interdisciplinary design teams regardless of the extent of their teaching experiences.
Environmental effects on foraging performance in little penguins: a matter of phenology and short-term variability
Authors: Joly NB , Chiaradia A , Georges JY , Saraux C
Published: April 2022

Foraging provides an integrative view of the effects of environmental variability on marine predators, from direct effects through increased energetic costs at sea to indirect effects through modification of prey accessibility. Using a 19 yr automated monitoring system of ~400 individuals (>45000 foraging trips), we investigated short-term and interannual variability in foraging performance (trip duration and mass gain) of breeding little penguins Eudyptula minor, nearshore seabirds living in a climate change hotspot. We found marked but variable seasonal patterns in foraging performance, with clear optimum periods but no decreases in trip duration or mass gain throughout the breeding season. Although foraging performance was less variable at the inter-annual scale, we highlighted 3 groups of low, average and good annual foraging performance. Low foraging performance during post-guard was associated with significantly lower breeding success. To understand how the environment might explain such variability, we simultaneously studied the effect of variables that may affect penguin foraging directly by altering energy costs at sea (currents, waves and tides) and indirectly by modifying prey availability (primary production and vertical stratification). Although foraging performance is often thought to mainly depend on prey accessibility, lower foraging performance was mostly associated with increased waves and currents and only secondarily with a decreased and shallower stratification. Finally, synchrony between penguin phenology and primary production cycles explained inter-annual foraging performance, highlighting the importance of seabird breeding phenology.

Published: April 2022

Background. Nationwide lockdowns, encompassing mass quarantine under stay-at-home ordinances, have already proven effective in controlling the COVID-19 outbreak. A prolonged homestay may also be associated with potential side effects, which may jeopardize people’s health. Some undesirable consequences of prolonged homestay can be physical inactivity, behavioral addiction disorders and social isolation (Henry, Bovo, & Sanchis-Gomar, 2020). The aim of the study is to analyse the impact of COVID-19 on mental health and lifestyle in the population of Kaunas city. 
Methods of research. anonymous online survey, which included questions on demographics, eating habits, alcohol and tobacco consumption, physical activity (Global Physical Activity Questionnaire), sleep quality (Pittsburgh sleep quality index) and mental health (Patient Health Questionnaire – 9). 
Results. the study involved 388 respondents from Kaunas city. Women accounted for 80,7 %, and men for 19,3 % of respondents. Average of sedentary behavior during the pandemic – 430, 93 ± 233,47 min., before the pandemic – 324, 42 ± 216,21 min. (p <0,05). Average of moderate-intensity physical activity (PA) before the pandemic 122,40 ± 148,98 min., and during the pandemic – 85,33 ± 98,08 min. (p<0,05). Average of vigorous-intensity PA during the pandemic – 21,20 ± 34,13 min, and before – 47,13 ± 104,08 (p<0,05). The consumption of fast food on daily basis before the pandemic – 0,8 %, during the pandemic – 1,5 % (p<0,05). Before the pandemic 15,7 % of respondents overate, during the pandemic – 30,2 % of respondents (p<0,05). Before the pandemic 1,8% of respondents consumed alcohol every day, during the pandemic – 3,4 % of respondents (p<0,05). Symptoms of depression: 7,26 ± 1,46 points before the pandemic and 10,40 ± 2,20 points during the pandemic (p<0,05). Quality of sleep: 5,73 ± 2,20 points before the pandemic and 6,44 ± 2,99 during the pandemic (p<0,05).
Conclusion. Sedentary behavior increased, while moderate-intensity and vigorous-intensity PA decreased (p<0,05) during the pandemic. The consumption of fruit and fast food increased during the pandemic (p<0,05) as well as the daily consumption of alcohol (p<0,05). The symptoms of depression were evaluated as mild (5–9 points) before the pandemic, and as moderate (10-14 points) during the pandemic (p<0,05). The quality of sleep was evaluated as worse during the pandemic than before the pandemic (p<0,05).
