Authors: Ramón López María del Marq , Paíno-Ambrosio Adriana , Rodríguez Fidalgo María Isabel
Published: February 2022

El fanatismo es un fenómeno social con décadas de antigüedad. No obstante, muchas de las dinámicas de este concepto, así como el papel desempeñado por el fan, se han visto trastocadas tras el surgimiento de la Era Digital. Para contextualizar e investigar las nuevas dinámicas de este fenómeno, ha sido escogida una de las comunidades de fans más activas en España en los últimos años: la del programa Operación Triunfo (OT). Concretamente, este estudio se centra en el análisis del rol del prosumidor y su vinculación con el mencionado talent show. Desde el punto de vista metodológico, el estudio se ha llevado a cabo a través de una encuesta realizada a 302 miembros del fandom que ha seguido activamente las ediciones OT9 (2017), OT10 (2018) y OT11 (2020). Los resultados obtenidos permiten hablar de la revitalización de OT, gracias a la implicación activa del fandom en las redes sociales del programa, tanto desde la perspectiva del seguimiento, como de la creación de contenido propio relacionado con el mismo. Esto abre una reflexión sobre la importancia que adquiere ahora la audiencia social dentro del público joven en programas televisivos como OT.

Published: February 2022

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the effect on seizure frequency of add-on telmisartan treatment in dogs with refractory idiopathic epilepsy.

ANIMALS

11 client-owned dogs with idiopathic epilepsy and ≥ 2 generalized seizures/mon that were currently being treated with ≥ 2 antiepileptic drugs.

PROCEDURES

Telmisartan was administered at a dosage of 0.25 to 1 mg/kg, PO, every 12 hours for 4 to 16 months. Seizure frequencies before and during telmisartan treatment were recorded.

RESULTS

10 dogs completed the 4-month treatment protocol. One dog was excluded owing to a transient increase in serum creatinine concentration; no adverse effects of telmisartan were observed in the remaining 10 dogs. A reduction in seizure frequency greater than an estimated expected placebo effect of 30% was evident in 7 of the 10 dogs. Long-term (12 to 16 months) follow-up information was available for 6 dogs, of which 4 had a further reduction in seizure frequency. Differences in seizure frequency were not statistically significant. No significant difference was found in serum phenobarbital concentration throughout the treatment period in the 7 dogs that were tested.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Telmisartan has the potential to reduce seizure frequency when administered as an add-on antiepileptic drug in dogs with refractory idiopathic epilepsy. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial is needed to determine the true efficacy of telmisartan. On the basis of our results, a sample size of 54 dogs with refractory idiopathic epilepsy would be needed.

Published: February 2022

A huge amount of information associated with the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak was circulated by mass media in Bangladesh. There has been a rare example so far of how media intervention during the epidemic can affect the public behaviour of Bangladesh. We aimed to assess mass media's influence on changing public behaviour during the second wave of COVID-19. An online cross-sectional survey among 416 Bangladeshi respondents was conducted between August and September 2021. Besides descriptive statistics, datasets were analyzed through a set of statistical methods such as Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and stepwise multiple regression model. The results showed that knowledge level change towards COVID-19 (10 items) had the highest association with behaviour change towards COVID-19 (16 items), indicating a high adoption of public behavior change. There was a positive significant relationship between the behaviour change towards COVID-19 (16 items) with the media's role in making awareness regarding COVID-19 (r= 0.342, p < .001), while there was a negative relationship between the behaviour change towards COVID-19 (16 items) of the respondents with age of participants (r= -.234, p < .001). The results also disclosed that knowledge level, media credibility, and media check-in had the largest contribution to influence the public behavior change. We also found that social media was highly used media as expected during the COVID-19 outbreak. The outcomes of the survey have vital implications for public behavior change and may support infectious disease suppression and control. Our outcomes also stress the significance of the reliability of information shared via mass media outlets and practical strategies to counter misinformation during the COVID-19 outbreak.
Biodeterioro causado por insectos en materiales y objetos de valor patrimonial
Authors: Rossi Batiz María Fernanda , Mariani Roxana
Published: February 2022

In Argentina, the main insects that cause biodegradation in heritage objects are beetles (Anobiidae, Coleoptera). The most frequent species in texts are Tricorynus herbarius (Gorham) and Stegobium paniceum (L.) and in working woods are Anobium punctatum De Geer and Xyletinus brasiliensis Pic. The damage in texts corresponds to galleries in covers, spines and pages and circular holes in spines. In wood they also generate galleries that cause the weakening of the support. Silverfish (Zygentoma) and cockroaches (Blattodea) produce superficial scrapes on texts and faecal spots, and larvae of the clothing moth Tineola bisselliella Hummel (Lepidoptera) feed on bookbinding fabrics. The spider webs collaborate with the accumulation of dirt and the remains and feces of the aforementioned fauna represent a substrate for chemical contamination and the development of other biodeteriorant organisms. The specific identification, the knowledge about the biology and the detection of signs of the actions of these insects, constitute the previous step for the implementation of preventive and curative conservation measures with a view to stopping, minimizing or counteracting the deterioration, ensuring the protection of the materials. Illustrative practical examples of objects of heritage value from Argentina are presented.

Authors: Alfariz Angga Fajar Sukma
Published: February 2022

Abstract
The 2020 Population Census is a big agenda for the Central Statistics Agency. Implementing a Census with a very wide working area and a very large number of officers has its own challenges. The schedule of these activities was carried out when Covid-19 made the burden heavier. These challenges are not only felt in the field, but also during processing. A quick population recapitulation calculation, which is by implementing the Covid-19 protocol, demands that organizers adapt quickly. The current system is considered to have weaknesses that make processing less effective. In this study, a system was developed to assist the population census processing in the population recapitulation data recording section. This system will take advantage of various available technologies, such as Bootstrap, PostgreSQL, PHP and Codeigniter. Utilization of this technology is expected to increase effectiveness and efficiency in problem solving. The system development method applied is the Agile Model Personal eXtreme Programming Method. The system can quickly accept changes and can be adapted quickly by officers. With this system, the recording of population recapitulation data, especially in West Kalimantan Province, can run effectively.

Stereoselective Syntheses of Protected Amino-hydroxy-cyclopentane-carbaldehyde Derivatives from 7-Oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-yl Systems
Authors: Reymond Jean-Louis , Vogel Pierre
Published: February 2022

Cycloaddition of azido formates to the double bond of 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-yl derivatives gave mixtures of triazolines that could be separated by chromatography. Their acid-catalyzed dediazoniations generate 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yl cation intermediates that rearrange
into the corresponding more stable 2-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-3-yl cation intermediates which are quenched externally or internally to give products that are protected amino-hydroxy-cyclopentane-carbaldehyde derivatives, with high stereoselectivity. The migratory aptitude of an alkyl group (e.g.
? bond C(1)–C(6) in 5-oxo-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yl cation intermediates) is significantly lower than that of the acyl group (e.g. ? bond C(1)–C(6) in 6-oxo-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yl cation intermediates) in pinacolic rearrangements.
Photocatalytic selective 1,2-hydroxyacylmethylation of 1,3-dienes with sulfur ylides as source of alkyl radicals
Authors: Xu Shuang-Hua , Yan Dong-Mei , Rao Li , Jiang Min , Wu Ya-Li , Xiao Wen-Jing , Chen Jia-Rong
Published: February 2022

Exploration of the zwitterionic property of sulfur ylides has long been known as a flexible strategy in a wide range of chemical transformations for different ring-sized construction. By contrast, their use in radical synthetic chemistry has been significantly limited due to dearth of general activation methods. Herein, a convenient strategy of visible light-driven proton-coupled electron transfer was reported to enable sulfur ylides to decompose into the corresponding α-carbonyl carbon radicals. With this method, a highly selective 1,2-hydroxyacylmethylation between 1,3-dienes, sulfur ylides and water under photoredox catalysis is thus achieved (>40 examples). Preliminary mechanistic studies and theoretical calculations shed light on the mechanism and the origin of regioselectivity.
Multi-scale imaging of protein oxidation in mayonnaise
Authors: Yang Suyeon , Takeuchi Machi , Friedrich Heiner , P. M. van Duynhoven John , Hohlbein Johannes
Published: February 2022

In mayonnaise, lipid and protein oxidation are closely related and the interplay between them is critical for understanding the chemical shelf-life stability of mayonnaise. This is in particular the case for comprehending the role of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles as a main emulsifier. Here, we monitored oxidation and the concomitant aggregation of LDLs by bright field light microscopy and cryogenic transmission electron microscopy. We further probed the formation of protein radicals and protein oxidation by imaging the accumulation of a water-soluble fluorescent spintrap and protein autofluorescence. The effect of variation of pH and addition of EDTA on accumulation of spintraps validated that protein radicals were induced by lipid radicals. We observed protein radical formation at both the oil/water droplet interface and in the continuous phase. Our data suggests two main pathways of oxidative protein radical formation in LDL particles: at the droplet interface, induced by lipid free radicals formed in oil droplets, and in the continuous phase induced by an independent LDL-specific mechanism.

Authors: Asampana Isaac , Akanlisikum Akanferi Albert , Henry Matey Akwetey , Ayaba Tanye Hannah
Published: February 2022

Aim/Purpose: This paper aims to analyze how artisans in Ghana are incorporating mobile commerce into their everyday business and how perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, subjective norms, age, gender, expertise, and educational level affected the adoption and usage of m-commerce.

Background: This study integrates well-established theoretical models to create a new conceptual model that ensures a comprehensive mobile commerce adoption survey.

Methodology: A cross-sectional survey was conducted to measure the constructs and their relations to test the research model.

Contribution: The study’s findings confirmed previous results and produced a new conceptual model for mobile commerce adoption and usage.

Findings: Except for gender, perceived ease of use, and subjective norms that did not have specific effects on mobile commerce adoption, age, educational level, perceived usefulness, expertise, attitude, and behavioral intention showed significant effects.

Recommendations for Practitioners: First of all, mobile commerce service providers should strategically pay critical attention to customer-centered factors that positively affect the adoption of mobile commerce innovations than focusing exclusively on technology-related issues. Mobile service providers can attract more users if they carefully consider promoting elements like perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use which directly or indirectly affect the individuals’ decision to adopt information technology from consumer perspectives.

Second, mobile commerce service providers should strategically focus more on younger individuals since, per the research findings, they are more likely to adopt mobile commerce innovations than the older folks in Ghana.

Third, service providers should also devise strategies to retain actual users of m-commerce by promoting elements like behavioral intentions and attitude, which according to the research findings, have a higher predictive power on actual usage of m-commerce.

Recommendation for Researchers: The conceptual model developed can be employed by researchers worldwide to analyze technology acceptance research.

Impact on Society: The study’s findings suggested that mobile commerce adoption could promote a cashless society that is convenient for making buying things quicker and easier.

Future Research: The research sample size could be increased, and also the study could all sixteen regions in Ghana or any other country for a broader representation.
Relationship between circadian rhythm characteristics and chronotypes with multiple sclerosis: literature review
Authors: Jonušaitė Ieva , Sakalauskaitė-Juodeikienė Eglė , Mameniškienė Rūta , Kizlaitienė R.
Published: February 2022

Circadian rhythm disorder is described as discrepancy between person’s sleep habits and usual, generally accepted sleep model during 24-hour period. Circadian rhythm disorders affect not only person’s working capacity during the day but also may reduce quality of life. The term chronotype refers to a specific circadian rhythm manifestation – person’s preference to sleep and to be awake at some point of 24-hour period. Both circadian rhythm disorders and increased serum levels of proinflammatory cytokines are considered as factors negatively affecting sleep homeostasis among patients with multiple sclerosis. It is important to recognize and manage circadian rhythm variations and associated sleep disorders among patients with multiple sclerosis in order to reduce fatigue, improve cognitive functions and mood, and general quality of life. In this review article, we describe mechanism of action of circadian rhythm, its imbalances, objective and subjective evaluation methods of circadian rhythm and chronotypes, as well as relationship between circadian rhythm characteristics, chronotypes, melatonin concentration, oxidative stress, and multiple sclerosis.
Exploring EAP students' perceptions of integrated writing assessment
Authors: Uludag Pakize
Published: February 2022

Despite the breadth of integrated writing assessment research, few studies have examined student perceptions of classroom-based integrated writing tasks or the instructional value of analytic rubrics. Adopting a case study methodology, this exploratory research investigated L2 learners’ conceptualizations of integrated writing assessment and their use of an analytic rubric for self-assessment in an EAP writing course. Data sources included integrated writing samples that were evaluated by the students and their instructor, a writing self-efficacy questionnaire, individual retrospective interviews, and course materials such as syllabi, and task instructions. Qualitative analysis revealed themes related to three aspects of classroom-based integrated writing assessment: task requirements, task conditions, and instructor feedback. The themes were discussed in terms of students’ test taking strategies and the use of available support systems in EAP contexts. In addition, findings indicated an overlap between students’ self-assessment and instructor evaluation of their integrated essays, suggesting that students could use the evaluation criteria effectively. Implications for teaching and assessing integrated writing in EAP contexts are discussed.

Published: February 2022

We are reporting a case of urothelial bladder cancer in a 36 year old male patient with no history or exposure to any risk factors. The incidence of urothelial bladder cancer is very low in young individuals i.e. below 40 years of age with reported rate of incidence around 0.1-0.4 %. Most of the times, these young individuals present with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer with low grade and low stage. As the age increases, the incidence of high grade bladder cancer increases along with it. The index case presented with high grade muscle invasive bladder cancer at the time of diagnosis without any known risk factors. The 5-year survival of urothelial bladder cancer is better in young patients (93.8 %) as compared to older people(85.1 %). Cigarette smoking is responsible for development of bladder cancer in majority of patients followed by exposure to occupational carcinogens. Role of genetic alterations in development of bladder cancer is still under research and process of urothelial bladder carcinogenesis is unanswered in young individuals.

Objective Comprehensive understanding of polyenvironmental risk factors for the development of psychosis is important. Based on a review of related evidence, we developed the Korea Polyenvironmental Risk Score (K-PERS) for psychosis. We investigated whether the K-PERS can differentiate patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSDs) from healthy controls (HCs).Methods We reviewed existing tools for measuring polyenvironmental risk factors for psychosis, including the Maudsley Environmental Risk Score (ERS), polyenviromic risk score (PERS), and Psychosis Polyrisk Score (PPS). Using odds ratios and relative risks for Western studies and the “population proportion” (PP) of risk factors for Korean data, we developed the K-PERS, and compared the scores thereon between patients with SSDs and HCs. In addition, correlation was performed between the K-PERS and Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS).Results We first constructed the “K-PERS-I,” comprising five factors based on the PPS, and then the “K-PERS-II” comprising six factors based on the ERS. The instruments accurately predicted participants’ status (case vs. control). In addition, the K-PERS-I and -II scores exhibited significant negative correlations with the negative symptom factor score of the PANSS.Conclusion The K-PERS is the first comprehensive tool developed based on PP data obtained from Korean studies that measures polyenvironmental risk factors for psychosis. Using pilot data, the K-PERS predicted patient status (SSD vs. HC). Further research is warranted to examine the relationship of K-PERS scores with clinical outcomes of psychosis and schizophrenia.

Yawning
Authors: Heinrich Thomas
Published: February 2022

Alexander Lowen emphasized the importance of changes in the body as a main goal of a body oriented psychotherapy. He focused especially on breathing and vibrating as involuntary movements and keys of changing and supporting a person’s grounding. Although yawning as another involuntary movement that shows a lot of changes on a body level, it is not in the center of Bioenergetic work yet. In my practice, yawning became an important and welcomed sign of therapeutic process and development which helps guide me through Bioenergetic sessions. The article will give some information about the current scientific findings and neurobiological aspects of yawning. A little study according to a simple yawning exercise gives data of self-experience of participants. Following phenomenological methods, new hypotheses of the reason and the purpose of yawning are presented. Some therapeutic implications, such as how the yawning of the client and of the therapist can be used in the process of a body-oriented psychotherapy, conclude the paper.
Creativity and Grounding in a Liquid World
Authors: Cardenuto Léia M.
Published: February 2022

After more than 14 years dwelling with the challenges of a Social Clinic in Focused Bioenergetics we intend to share our experience with the bioenergetic therapists community. In all those years we have learned much about the difficulties of establishing a line of work suitable to use the bioenergetic approach with troubled people in troubled social environments, in particular those outside of our consumer society. We had to rely more on a progressive approach than on a regressive one in order to bring the analytical process to a successful outcome, consistent with the focused bioenergetics method we adopted. In this process we did not abandon our psychoanalytic-based approach, but humbly adapted our understanding to terms that could be agreed between therapists and clients, establishing what we call the symbolic universe sharing. We were very moved by the theme chosen for the present conference, «The grounded body as a safe place in difficult times”, and felt we should attend. This is the first time a conference addressed exactly our difficulty. The new concepts that were developed during this process will be presented.

Aspartame is an artificial sweetener in foods and beverages. Continuous use of aspartame will result in oxidative stress in the liver. So we need antioxidants from outside the body such as periwinkle leaves.This study aims to determine the effect of periwinkle leaves (Catharanthus roseus L) on aspartame-induced liver histology. This study used 24 male mice divided into 4 groups, namely negative control (K-) without treatment; Positive control (K +) treatment of aspartame; D1: treatment of aspartame and periwinkle extract doses of 0.42 mg/kg. D2: aspartame and periwinkleÂ  extract doses of 0.84 mg/kgbb. Administration of aspartame dose of 0.2 mg /kgbb by intraperitoneal Â for 14 days followed by gavage administration of periwinkle leaf extract for 12 days. The liver was taken on the 27th day by surgery, then made slide histology with Hematoxylin-Eosin staining. The results show that the administration of Catharanthus roseus leaf extract at a dose of 0.84 mg/kgbw in aspartame-induced mice was effective in reducing hepatocyte damage, namely hydrophilic degeneration and necrosis.

Kesambi is a plant widely used by people of Timor Island. Flavonoid content of Kesambi is potential to be used as immunomodulators. This study aimedÂ  to study the effect of Kesambi bark extract on lymphocyte count and spleen index of male mice as an indicator of their immune responses. Research included identification of phytochemical compounds macerated from Kesambi bark, lymphocytes count and spleen index calculation. Mice injected with sheep erythrocytes were treated orally with three doses of Kesambi extract (0.113 mg/g BW, 0.491 mg/g BW, and 0.712 mg/g BW) for 10 days. Lymphocyte count using blood smear method was carried out on day 0, 5 and 10, while lymphocyte count using hematology analyzer and spleen index measurement were performed after mice sacrificed. Kesambi bark contains alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, and steroids. Treatment with Kesambi bark extract reduced mice lymphocyte count. Administration of 0.491 mg/gr BW dose reduced the mice lymphocytes count close to the number of lymphocytes in the negative control group. The spleen index of mice had no correlation with changes in the number of lymphocytes. This preliminary study shows a potential use of Kesambi bark extract as a natural immunosuppressant.
