Background: Information and communication technologies (ICTs)
improve patient-centered care and are routinely used in Allergic
Rhinitis (AR), but patients’ preferences and attitudes are unexplored.
This study examines AR-related information preferences and ICT use by AR
patients. Methods: A survey-based cross-sectional study was
carried out in Ecuador in seven centers of reference of allergic
disease. Participants were 18 or older, diagnosed with AR, and had
access to ICT and the internet. Descriptive and binomial logistic
regression were done. A value of less than 0.05 was considered
statistically significant. Results: 217 patients were included.
47% used ICTs to learn about AR, 38.2% found it useful. 75% disagreed
that ICTs reduce doctor’s appointments. Individuals with poorer quality
of life were 27% more likely to utilize ICTs to contact their doctor
and 23% more likely to be interested in AR-related content. Patients
with long-term AR or other allergies were less likely to use ICTs.
Higher education and lower quality of life may increase AR app adoption
by 4.8 times. Academic preparation five-fold increased ICT use for
health provider communication. Mild-persistent allergic rhinitis 12
times enhanced the probabilities of using ICTs to share experiences and
communicate with other patients. Conclusions: Our study found
that moderate-to-severe AR individuals are not interested in information
despite ICTs’ potential benefits. Consequently, allergists should use
evidence-based resources and establish new technological options for
content, follow-up, and emotional support for AR patients in Ecuador.

Authors: kanbayashi Yuko , Kojima Asuka , Wakabayashi Haruka , Shimizu Tadashi , Uchida Mayako
Published: February 2023

Aim: The present study aimed to evaluate the risk of
nilotinib-induced cardiac adverse events (CAEs), time to onset,
incidence rates, and post hoc outcomes using the Japanese Adverse Drug
Event Report database. Methods: We analysed data for the period
between April 2004 and March 2022. Data on CAEs were extracted and
relative risk of adverse events (AEs) was estimated using the reporting
odds ratio (ROR). Results: We analysed 2,021,907 reports and
identified 3,545 reports of AEs caused by nilotinib. Of these, 511
reports involved CAEs. Signals were detected for 19 CAEs. Of these,
electrocardiogram QT prolonged was the most frequently reported
(30.9%). Fatal outcomes were observed in eight AEs: cardiac failure,
atrial fibrillation, acute myocardial infarction, pericardial effusion,
myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest, pericarditis, and cardiac
tamponade. Of these, acute myocardial infarction, myocardial infarction,
pericarditis, and cardiac tamponade exhibited mortality rates
>10%. A histogram of median times to onset showed
nilotinib-associated AEs occurring 3–485 days after nilotinib
administration. Conclusion: We focused on CAEs caused by
nilotinib as post-marketing AEs. Some cases resulted in serious
outcomes. Patients should be monitored for signs of onset of these AEs
not only at the start of administration, but for a long period of time.

Authors: Lin Tan , wu qing , Yang Qingmei , lin yanling
Published: February 2023

Objective: The purpose of this study was to explore the optimal time of
laparoscopic cystectomy for unilateral ovarian endometrioma patients and
to evaluate the influence on the ovarian reserve. Design: Prospective
randomized controlled study. Setting: University hospital Population or
Sample：88 patients received their first identified diagnosis of ovarian
endometrioma by ultrasound (>4 cm) and were given oral
contraceptive pills (OCP, drospirenone and ethinylestradiol) for one
cycle before laparoscopy. Methods：Randomly divided into two groups:
laparoscopy at Late luteal phase (group LLP) (n=44): Termination of OCP
for 2 days; and laparoscopy at Early follicular phase (group EFP)
(n=44): Day 3 after menstruation. Main Outcome Measure(s): Serum
Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and Leukocyte esterase (LE) levels of
endometrioma wall were measured. Assessment of ovarian reserve damage
based on alterations in the serum AMH levels after unilateral ovarian
endometrioma surgery. Result(s): Preoperative serum AMH levels of both
group decreased from preoperative to post-operative 1 week and
post-operative 6 months, while difference values of group EFP were
larger than those of group LLP at post-operative 1 week and
post-operative 6 months respectively(1.87±0.97 vs 1.31±0.93, P＜0.01;
1.91±1.06 vs 1.54±0.93, P＜0.01)；the mean rates of post-operative serum
AMH decline were 37.92% and 46.34% in group EFP respectively, which
were significantly higher than those of group LLP (25.83% vs
31.43%，P＜0.01). Ovarian endometrioma wall AMH of group LLP was
significantly lower than that of group EFP ([22.86±3.74] vs
[31.02±5.23], P＜0.01)；While ovarian endometrioma LE concentration
of group LLP was significantly higher than that group
EFP([482.83±115.88] vs [371.68±84.49], P＜0.01). And significant
negative correlation between leukocyte esterase and AMH concentration in
the cyst wall of ovarian endometrioma (r=-0.564，P＜0.01).
Conclusion(s): The optimal time for laparoscopic cystectomy for
patients with first identified unilateral ovarian endometrioma is late
luteal phase, which reduces ovarian tissue loss and preserves ovarian
reserve effectively and safely.
Iron Deficiency Anemia Detection using Machine Learning Models: A Comparative Study of Fingernails, Palm and Conjunctiva of the Eye Images.
Authors: Asare Justice Williams , APPIAHENE PETER , Donkoh Emmanuel Timmy , Dimauro Giovanni
Published: February 2023

Anemia is one of the global public health challenges that particularly
affect children and pregnant women. A study by WHO indicates that 42%
of children below 6 years and 40% of pregnant women worldwide are
anemic. This affects the world’s total population by 33%, due to the
cause of iron deficiency. The non-invasive technique, such as the use of
machine learning algorithms, is one of the methods used in the
diagnosing or detection of clinical diseases, which anemia detection
cannot be overlooked in recent days. In this study, machine learning
algorithms were used to detect iron-deficiency anemia with the
application of Naïve Bayes, CNN, SVM, k-NN, and Decision Tree. This
enabled us to compare the conjunctiva of the eyes, the palpable palm,
and the colour of the fingernail images to justify which of them has a
higher accuracy for detecting anemia in children. The technique utilized
in this study was categorized into three different stages: collecting of
datasets (conjunctiva of the eyes, fingernails and the palpable palm
images), preprocessing the images; image extraction, segmentation of the
Region of Interest of the images, obtained each component of the CIE
L*a*b* colour space (CIELAB). The models were then developed for the
detection of anemia using various algorithms. The CNN had an accuracy of
99.12% in the detection of anemia, followed by the Naïve Bayes with an
accuracy of 98.96%, while Decision Tree and k-NN had 98.29% and
98.92% accuracy respectively. However, the SVM had the least accuracy
of 95.4% on the palpable palm. The performance of the models justifies
that the non-invasive approach is an effective mechanism for anemia
detection. Keywords: Iron deficiency, anemia, non-invasive, machine
learning, data augmentation, algorithms, region of interest.
Biogeochemistry of the Kuroshio Large Meander
Authors: Hayashida Hakase , Kiss Andrew E. , Miyama Toru , Miyazawa Yasumasa , Yasunaka Sayaka
Published: February 2023

The large meander of the Kuroshio western boundary current is well known
to influence the local climate, fisheries, and aquaculture by greatly
modulating regional heat transport, but its impacts on biogeochemical
processes remain unclear. Using high-resolution numerical ocean
modelling and long-term observational datasets, we show that the path of
the Kuroshio determines the extent of the shallow nutricline region,
where winter convective mixing replenishes nutrient availability for
subsequent blooms of phytoplankton during spring. During the large
meander phase, this mechanism triggers offshore phytoplankton blooms
that are otherwise absent during the non-large meander phase. The large
meander also modulates the spatial distributions of primary production,
air-sea carbon flux, and export production. These biogeochemical impacts
of the Kuroshio large meander exert bottom-up control on regional marine
ecosystems that is disproportionate to the thermal effect, and therefore
need to be assessed to understand the large meander’s overall impacts on
fisheries and aquaculture.
On the extension of surjective isometries whose domain is the unit sphere of a space of compact operators
Authors: Peralta Antonio
Published: February 2023

We prove that every surjective isometry from the unit sphere of the space
K(H), of all compact operators on an arbitrary complex Hilbert space H, onto
the unit sphere of an arbitrary real Banach space Y can be extended to a
surjective real linear isometry from K(H) onto Y. This is probably the first
example of an infinite dimensional non-commutative C*-algebra containing no
unitaries and satisfying the Mazur-Ulam property. We also prove that all
compact C*-algebras and all weakly compact JB*-triples satisfy the
Mazur-Ulam property.

Spectral problems of dissipative singular q-Sturm-Liouville operators in limit-circle case
Authors: Allahverdiev Bilender
Published: February 2023

We consider the dissipative singular q-Sturm-Liouville operators acting in
the Hilbert space L2 w,q(R+), that the extensions of a minimal symmetric
operator with deficiency indices (2, 2) (in limit-circle case).We construct
a self-adjoint dilation of the dissipative operator and its incoming and
outgoing spectral representations, which make it possible to determine the
scattering matrix of the dilation in terms of the Weyl-Titchmarsh function
of a self-adjoint q-Sturm-Liouville operator. We also construct a functional
model of the dissipative operator and determine its characteristic function
in terms of the scattering matrix of the dilation (or of the Weyl-Titchmarsh
function). Theorems on the completeness of the system of or root functions
of the dissipative and accumulative q-Sturm-Liouville operators are proved.

Recently, a class of mappings named as couplings was introduced in [U.P.B.
Sci. Bull. Series A, 79 (2017), 1-12]. Based on this concept, we introduce
symmetric Meir-Keeler couplings and we ensure the existence of strong
coupled fixed points. We present some concrete examples to support the
obtained results. Furthermore, as an application of our results, we
investigate the existence of a unique solution to a system of integral
equations.

Published: February 2023

Introduction. The objective of this case report is to present a clinical course of SARS-CoV-2 infection in a patient with long-term rheumatoid arthritis and concomitant rituximab therapy. Case outline. A 58-year-old female patient was diagnosed with seropositive rheumatoid arthritis at the age of 35. She was primarily prescribed chloroquine and glucocorticoid, afterwards methotrexate and biological agent ? etanercept. Because of a secondary loss of response, etanercept was switched to rituximab. She had 13 cycles of rituximab and the last was given in June 2020. In December 2020, she was hospitalized due to bilateral pneumonia and respiratory insufficiency. The results of the laboratory analysis revealed anemia, leukocytosis, thrombocytosis, and markedly elevated C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, D-dimer, transaminases. The findings of the chest computed tomography scan were consistent with COVID-19 pneumonia features with accompanying bilateral pleural effusion. The patient was treated with antibiotics, corticosteroids, tocilizumab, hepatoprotective, gastroprotective, oxygen therapy, and parenteral anticoagulant. Three months after recovering from pneumonia, she developed arthritis flare, hence a JAK inhibitor, baricitinib, was started. Low disease activity was achieved with baricitinib monotherapy. Conclusion. Due to risk of severe COVID-19, caution may be required when applying immunosuppressive therapy in patients with rheumatic diseases.

Authors: Mar B , Ekambaram M , Li KC , Zwirner J , Mei ML
Published: February 2023

Objective

To investigate the influence of blood and saliva contamination on the microshear bond strength (μSBS) between resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) and resin composite (RC).

Methods and Materials

Eighty RMGIC discs were allocated into four groups (n=20). Group 1 received universal dental adhesive application in a self-etch mode followed by a build-up with RC. Group 2 received saliva as a contaminant, Group 3 received blood as a contaminant, Group 4 received a 1:1 blood-saliva mixture as a contaminant. Specimens from Groups 2, 3, and 4 were submerged into their respective contaminants for 15 seconds and dried prior to the adhesive application, followed by the protocol for Group 1. All specimens were stored in distilled water for 24 hours. Subsequently, the bonded specimens were subjected to μSBS testing using a universal testing machine. Failure mode of the debonded RMGIC surfaces was examined using scanning electron microscopy.

Results

The μSBS from groups 1–4 were 10.76 ± 3.03 MPa, 9.36 ± 2.54 MPa, 6.55 ± 1.67 MPa and 8.42 ± 2.79 MPa, respectively. Contamination by blood and blood-saliva significantly decreased the μSBS (p<0.001, p=0.029). Saliva contamination alone had no statistically significant effect on the μSBS (p=0.524). A statistically significant difference in the mode of failure was detected between the experimental groups (p=0.012).

Conclusion

Saliva contamination has no influence on μSBS between RMGIC and RC when it is dried thoroughly, while blood and blood-saliva contamination reduced μSBS between RMGIC and RC even when dried thoroughly.

The field experiment was conducted at the District seed farm under Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, Kalyani, Nadia, West Bengal during summer season (February to May) of 2012 and 2013 to study the effect of paclobutrazol on succeeding crop summer groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) after potato. Paclobutrazol had no significant influence on plant height at the early stage but at a later stage upto 200 ppm of it significantly reduced the plant height upto 5–6 cm. Double spraying was more conducive than single spraying either at 30 DAE or at 50 DAE only. Higher dry matter production was found at 150 ppm of paclobutrazol with double spraying during all the growth stages; thereafter dry matter production decreased with a further increase in the doses of paclobutrazol. No significant influence was noticed on yield attributes for either single or double spraying of paclobutrazol. Paclobutrazol in different concentrations increased the pod yield upto 7–18% over control and significantly highest result was recorded with the application of 150 ppm of paclobutrazol with double spraying at 30 and 50 DAE. However, haulm yield did not vary significantly due to the application of paclobutrazol. It had also no significant influence on nitrogen uptake in groundnut plants but it had a positive response to increasing the phosphorus, potassium and oil content upto 100–150 ppm and double spraying was more advantageous as compared to single spraying. Application of 150 ppm paclobutrazol with double spraying at 30 and 50 DAE gave the highest net return: cost ratio.

The experiment was conducted during December 2020 to March 2022 at Banana Research Station, Kannara, Kerala Agricultural University, Thrissur, Kerala, India to evaluate the response of different banana varieties Nendran, Kadali, Rasthali, Neypoovan, Poovan (Palayankodan) and Grand Naine to macropropagation with two different media (sawdust and cocopeat) and to assess the performance of plantlets generated against suckers. The plantain variety nendran took the shortest time for primary (20.33 days) and secondary bud regeneration (14.33 days) with sawdust as media. Total duration from planting to hardening ranged from 75.9 days in Nendran (sawdust media) to 104.3 days in Poovan (cocopeat media). Significantly shorter duration was observed with saw dust in Nendran, Kadali, Rasthali and Grand Naine compared to cocopeat. The cost of production varied with the variety which ranged from Rs. 1.7−4.0 plantlet-1 in sawdust to Rs. 3.2−6.3 plantlet-1 in cocopeat. Macropropagated plantlets recorded higher bunch weight than suckers in all varieties. There was no significant difference between the 2 with respect to growth characters like plant height, pseudostem girth, suckers plant-1, days to bunching, days to maturity and crop duration across all varieties except for Neypoovan and Poovan. Quality characters like TSS and fruit acidity did not vary between the two planting materials.

The study was conducted during 2019 at the Faculty of Veterinary Sciences & Animal Husbandry, Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences & Technology-Jammu, India to investigate the effect of dietary inclusion of garlic, turmeric and their combinations on performance of broilers (Cobb strain). 240-day old unsexed broiler chicks were procured, weighed and randomly divided into 5 dietary treatments (n=48): antibiotic (C), 1% turmeric (T1), 1% garlic (T2), 0.6% turmeric±0.4% garlic (T3), 0.6% garlic±0.4% turmeric (T4) replicated 4times (12 birds / replicate). The diets formulated were isocaloric and isonitrogenous. Experimental trial lasted for 42 days. Feed consumption of broilers on weekly basis showed non-significant variation during first two weeks, but at 3rd week, feed intake was higher (p<0.05) in antibiotic growth promoter supplemented group than garlic supplemented groups. Weekly body weight and body weight gain during the entire trial did not differ except at week 1. Average weekly FCR was similar (P>0.05) throughout the experimental trial of different dietary treatments, but was numerically better in garlic fed group. Weekly PER showed no difference. Average CMI response of broiler birds was statistically higher (p<0.05) in T1 than T4 with intermediate values in C, T2 and T3 at 24 hours, indicating that turmeric has immunomodulatory properties. But, at 48 and 72 hours, there was no difference found in CMI response. The mean values of cell mediated immune response showed no significant difference. It was concluded that turmeric and garlic powder supplementation (@ 1%) either alone or in combination may substitute antibiotics without any adverse effect.

The present investigation was carried out with 30 genotypes of rice (Oryza sativa L.) to study the variability and genetic divergence for yield contributing characters and gall midge incidence at Regional Agricultural Research Station, Warangal, Telangana during kharif, 2021 (July–November) in RBD replicated twice for eight quantitative traits. The phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) was slightly higher than the genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV) for all traits, indicating that environmental influences affect the expression of these traits. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance as % of the mean values were observed for 1000 grain weight and number of grains panicle-1 suggesting that selection for the improvement of these traits may be rewarding. The PCA analysis showed that first three principal components accounted for about 91.57%. Based on D2 studies, 30 genotypes were grouped into seven clusters with the cluster I (13) containing maximum number of genotypes followed by cluster III (9) and cluster II (4). Highest inter cluster distances were observed between the clusters IV and VII (1272.49) followed by IV and V (1097.39), VI and VII (1013.83) and II and VII (944.20) indicating the importance of the genotypes present in these clusters for exploiting heterosis for the desirable traits of these clusters. Days to 50% flowering (27.58%),1000-grain weight (27.36%) and plant height (27.36%) were found to be the most contributing traits towards total genetic diversity, which could be given due importance by the breeders for development of superior rice genotypes under crop improvement programme.

Published: February 2023

The effective care for patients with self-poisoning with antihypertensive and antiarrhythmic drugs is associated with taking into account both clinical and adverse social, psychological and environmental stress factors. To identify their specifics, a retrospective analysis of 120 medical records and a clinical and psychological examination of 20 patients with antihypertensive and antiarrhythmic drugs self-poisoning and a comparison group of 34 patients with selfpoisoning with psychotropic drugs were carried out. It has been shown that the risk group for re-suicide in self-poisoning with antihypertensive and antiarrhythmic drugs is about 30% of patients. Risk factors are depressive symptoms that persist before discharge from the hospital, as well as dysfunctional personality traits (perfectionism in the form of increased preoccupation with the assessments of other people and frequent unfavorable comparisons with them, experiencing loneliness and isolation, increased impulsivity and a feeling of hostility from others) and unproductive ways of coping with stress (ruminative thinking or repetitive unpleasant and unproductive thoughts about anergy, lack of strength and loneliness). The results of the study and the developed psychodiagnostic complex can be used to identify targets for urgent psychological assistance and screening for the risk of re-suicide.

ABSTRACT Acute lower limb ischemia (ALLI) is a limb threatening condition with high risk of adverse outcomes. The timely and proper diagnosis of the severity of limb ischemia is crucial in selecting the optimal treatment method.

AIM OF STUDY To evaluate the advantages of hybrid imaging in diagnosis of ALLI, patient selection and its severity in order to choose an optimal revascularization method.

MATERIAL AND METHODS we examined 163 patients with grade 1–3A ALLI based on I.I. Zatevakhin et al. classification (2002) on a Discovery 670 NM/CT hybrid device, using X-ray (computed tomographic angiography) and radionuclide method (three-phase scintigraphy/single photon emission computed tomography with osteotropic or perfused radiopharmaceutical).

RESULTS CT angiography accurately showed level of acute occlusion as well as distal arterial blood flow in all ALLI cases, thus allowing optimal choice of possible revascularization. CT angiography findings alone did not allow optimal staging of ALLI, which is essential for choosing an optimal revascularization method and were considered as supplementary. Three-phase scintigraphy allowed to differentiate the degrees of ALLI based on the visual picture and calculated data, while studies with osteotropic radiopharmaceutical 99mТс-PYP provided information on viability of affected tissues showing the areas of muscle necrosis, compared to perfused radiopharmaceutical.

CONCLUSION 1. CT angiography makes it possible to assess in detail the level and severity of occlusive lesions of the arterial system and study the vascular anatomy of the lower limb to resolve the issue of the possibility of revascularization, and also indirectly characterizes the presence of ischemic changes in soft tissues. 2. The radionuclide method (three-phase scintigraphy with an osteotropic radiopharmaceutical/single photon emission computed tomography), performed in addition to computed tomographic angiography, allows not only to detect the presence of ischemic changes in soft tissues, but also to differentiate the degree of acute ischemia of the lower. 3. The hybrid method (three-phase scintigraphy in combination with computed tomographic angiography) contributes to an objective assessment of the state of blood flow in the lower extremities in acute ischemia, both at the main and at the microcirculatory

An online travel agency (OTA) is an online-based marketplace that allows consumers to research and book travel products and services, including hotels, flights, cars, tours, cruises, activities and more, directly with travel suppliers. Even though the COVID-19 pandemic has shaken the tourism sector, Indonesia as one of the favorite tourist locations in the world has sped up the vaccination process which is a good momentum for the revival of the national tourism sector. Those conditions led to competition between OTAs starting to get intense again and each OTA company must strengthen its business by improving and creating new services to win the market. The Bus and Shuttle are the most common ground public transportation in Indonesia which is one of the flagship products of OTA and has grown over the last 3 years. This study aims to determine the values of online bus and shuttle tickets through OTA perceived by the loyal consumer. The result implies that functional, informational, preference values, and bus or shuttle usage satisfaction are important factors in getting loyal consumers. These loyal consumers will be of high value because apart from having a good impact on the company's economy, they will also ultimately tend to invite the surrounding environment through e-WOM.

The researcher saw the management of talent development and interest in students of the Islamic Boarding School An Najah Purwokerto very representative for review. Good management has touched the development of students' talents and interests. The management can be seen from the existence of the Student Santri Organization (Osma) which is included in the education curriculum of Pesma An Najah Purwokerto. Through Osma, students are directed to develop their talents and interests. The aim is to shape the mentality of students who are competitive by being able to show their skills or talents of interest when they are involved in society. Santri is expected not only to wrestle in the world of religion but also in other aspects of life. Pesma An-Najah Purwokerto is unique compared to other Islamic boarding schools in the Banyumas area. An-Najah Pesma has a diverse student body of student organizations compared to other pesantren. There are several santri organizations that other pesantren do not have, namely the Pondok Pena Community, Annajah Creative, OSMA AArJEC (An-Najah Arabic Javanese English Community), OSMA AEC (An-Najah Entrepreneur Club), OSMA Luthfunnajah and NH Perkasya An-Najah.

Authors: Rohman Afik Fathur
Published: February 2023

This thesis aims to describe and analyze: (1) The history of the emergence of apartheid politics in South Africa, and (2) The contribution of Muslims in opposing the apartheid regime in South Africa with the period 1948-1994. This type of research focuses on library reseach. Some of the steps used in researching the object of study are heuristics, verification, interpretation, and historiography or what is often referred to as historical research methodology. The results of this study show that: First, apartheid politics officially lasted for forty-two years (1948-1990). This is against the backdrop of a white group that feels that it is superior to the black group that is seen as slaves, servants. Apartheid, which means separation, was formed with the aim of maintaining the purity of his race, so that to realize it Malan who won the 1948 elections made a kind of political policy strategy that later developed into discrimination against blacks. Second, The policy of implementing apartheid politics that oppresses many blacks, including Muslims, triggers resistance and resistance to the political policies implemented. This movement was realized by a series of Muslim organizations, such as CMYM, CMYA, Al-Qibla and The Call of Islam that strongly opposed the practice of oppression of apartheid regimes. The foundation of thinking used in this study refers to Max Weber's theory of social action.
Overlapping cities: Trans-urban augmentation in the digital era of western cities
Authors: Martella Flavio , Enia Marco
Published: February 2023

The digital revolution has produced and is still creating new lifestyles that are being reflected in a new urban revolution which sees the overlapping of different environments to enrich the urban experience and respond to emergent necessities. It leads to a dissolution of the strictly defined spaces and uses to create hybrid places that colonize the urban environment. The dualities of public and private, of exterior and interior, of work and leisure, of man and woman, of house and city, are then changing, and with them also the traditional pillars of the modern society. The digital is overlapping the material, changing the urban organizational structure through new relationship between people, city and technology in a new reality recently dubbed the “metaverse”. Most of the spatial needs are then transformed, opening up to a profound rethinking of the structure of places and of the meaning itself of urban environment. The article analyses the current relationship between the material and the virtual by identifying the possible resulting spatial emergencies.
MalVinas

La conmemoración de los 40 años del conflicto bélico, paradójicamente, nos ha dado la oportunidad de dejar de asimilar el significante Malvinas con el de guerra. Alzar la mirada, analizar los 190 años de usurpación ilegal británica y salir del laberinto que nos dejó la dictadura militar con sus vaivenes diplomáticos internacionales que, por un lado, tomaron una causa justa en manos bastardas y, al mismo tiempo, cometieron otro crimen: romper con una política de Estado que estaba logrando que tarde o temprano, como un fruto maduro, las islas estuvieran bajo soberanía nacional.
Las fechas y las efemérides se resignifican. Los pueblos hacen suyas las luchas populares y transforman acontecimientos y hechos que pudieron haber tenido sus contradicciones, pero que, asimismo, condensan las utopías que señalan el sendero de la emancipación.
Con la propuesta de reconstruir y fortalecer la semana de la memoria se reflexiona en torno al lugar que ocupa la fecha del 2 de abril en la efeméride oficial, su relación con otros acontecimientos cercanos en tiempo y sentimiento, más la aceptación o no de esa jornada dentro de la memoria popular.

Published: February 2023

Humans are inseparable from using hydrocarbons, including fossil fuels, dyes, and oleochemical products. This has frequently resulted in a high possibility of waste spills polluting the environment. A biological approach using microbes was used to facilitate many of these countermeasures. This study aimed to determine the ability of the bacterium Serratia marcescens MBC 1 isolate as a biodegradation agent for various hydrocarbons and a bio-decolorizing agent for synthetic dyes. The bacterial growth media used were solid and tryptic soy broth. Methylene blue, congo red, methyl red, methyl orange, and crystal violet were synthetic dyes at a concentration per million. Within 7 days, several synthetic dyes tested showed decolorization. Methylene blue has the fastest decolorization time, taking just 24 h. The lipase index method was used to assess the propensity of hydrocarbons to degrade qualitatively. Kerosene had the highest lipolytic index at 6.31, followed by used cooking oil at 5.48 index, used lubricant at 5.37 and diesel at 3.63 index. Quantitative and comprehensive in-depth testing of the potential achievements of this initial test will be used in solving environmental problems that may occur further, especially related to the impact of the use of synthetic dyes.
