Медиасфера в период пандемии COVID-19: региональные и дискурсивные различия в установлении повестки дня
Authors: Первушин Николай Сергеевич
Published: July 2022

Исследование посвящено работе российских медиа в период с 22 января до 19 июля 2020 г. Рассматривается динамика количества новостей о COVID-19 за сутки и их содержание на различных ресурсах в соотношении с динамикой новых выявленных заражений в субъектах РФ, Москве, России и мире. Исследование фокусируется на регионах, где эпидемия к середине лета не ослабевала. Сравниваются федеральные и региональные СМИ, работа СМИ в регионах с разной эпидемиологической обстановкой, государственные и негосударственные медиа.
Предположение о согласованности динамики количества сообщений с динамикой количества новых зараженных в регионе находит эмпирическое подтверждение только для Москвы и регионов с идентичным сценарием развития эпидемии. И федеральные, и региональные медиа ориентируются скорее на московскую эпидемиологическую ситуацию. До 6 мая присутствовала ориентация на мировые события. Рост эпидемии в регионах сопровождается падением внимания СМИ к этой теме. Изначальный большой интерес к эпидемии был связан с неопределенностью рисков и введением ограничительных мер, а реальная эпидемия в регионах и вероятность заражения не влияют на освещение темы в медиа. Наблюдаются различия в работе медиа в городах-миллионниках и менее крупных городах.
Государственные и негосударственные медиа идентичны в плане динамики объема внимания к теме COVID-19. Наблюдается постепенное синхронное вытеснение эпидемии из повестки. Выявлены содержательные отличия в освещении темы между государственными и негосударственными СМИ. Государственные направлены на успокоение и смягчение восприятия несмотря на серьезность вводимых мер. Негосударственные заостряют внимание на критике системы здравоохранения, непоследовательности ограничительных мер, историях болезни.

Mixing Between Jeans and Lace Fabrics to Design Wedding Dress Using Designing-on-the Mannequin Technique
Authors: Al Sheikh Basma Abdel Mohsen
Published: July 2022

Modelling or shaping on mannequin is a science and an art that has its scientific origins, in addition to the skill required to be acquired to master it. It depends on the individual's ability to innovate, his analytical ability and his skill in work that is characterized by quality, beauty and perfection to produce designs that perform their utilitarian and aesthetic functions. By modelling on mannequin, it is possible to add a shape and surface texture different from the shape and surface of the original material because the modelling method has great potential in this field by making suitable formation of the cloth on the mannequin. Rather, it can make more than one shape and more than one surface appearance for one type of cloth using modelling. This research seeks to analyze and characterize the aesthetic values in the use of jeans fabrics, in the innovative designs of international fashion designers; identify the relationship resulting from mixing jeans and laces in the design of the wedding dress using shaping on mannequin technique; measuring the degree of acceptance among specialists, and Saudi girls of age category (18-25) to the idea of wedding dresses made of lace and jeans fabrics. The research sample included a group of (14) faculty members specialized in the field as well as a group of (60) Saudi girls whose ages range between 18-25. Two questionnaires were used as a tool to measure the sample's attitudes towards the designs. It was found that the design has achieved great success in terms of concept and method of implementation and achieved a good mix of jeans and laces (tulle and lace) in a beautiful way.

Published: July 2022

Objectives

Patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus have been reported to have elevated prolactin levels and a possible relationship between prolactin levels and the development of the disease has been proposed. However, some studies show that prolactin mediates beneficial functions in beta cells. Therefore, we review information on the roles of prolactin in type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Content

Here we summarize the functions of prolactin in the immune system and in pancreatic beta cells, in addition, we describe studies related to PRL levels, its regulation and alterations of secretion in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Studies in murine models have shown that prolactin protects beta cells from apoptosis, stimulates their proliferation and promotes pancreatic islet revascularization. In addition, some studies in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus have shown that elevated prolactin levels correlate with better disease control.

Outlook

Prolactin treatment appears to be a promising strategy to improve beta-cell vascularization and proliferation in transplantation and immunotherapies.
Different systems, similar challenges: humor and free speech in the United States and Europe
Authors: Godioli Alberto , Little Laura E.
Published: July 2022

The United States and Europe are often contrasted with each other regarding their approach to freedom of expression. Yet, despite the differences between their respective judicial systems, courts from both regions inevitably face similar interpretive challenges when dealing with humor. Our paper conducts a comparative discussion of humor-related jurisprudence from the US and Europe, mostly (but not exclusively) focusing on two landmark cases – namely Hustler v. Falwell (US Supreme Court, 1988) and Vereinigung Bildender Künstler v. Austria (European Court of Human Rights, 2007). In particular, our analysis foregrounds two aspects: 1) How courts deal with the complex relations between humor, exaggeration and factual reality; 2) The role of objective harm (as opposed to subjective offence) in distinguishing between lawful and unlawful expression, and how the subjectivity of humor interpretation can undermine this criterion. On both levels, we argue that insights from literary and linguistic theories of humor – from Simpson’s work on satirical discourse to Attardo and Raskin’s General Theory of Verbal Humor – can set the basis for a more fine-grained and systematic approach to humor across different judicial systems.

Objectives

To evaluate the effect of vitamin D supplementation on glycemic control in children and adolescents with T1DM.

Content

A systematic search was conducted of the Medline/PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, BVS/Lilacs, Cochrane Library, Scopus, Cinahl, Food Science, and FSTA databases. Two reviewers independently extracted article data and assessed quality.

A total of 1,613 eligible articles were retrieved, ten of which met the selection criteria: eight clinical trials, one retrospective cohort study, and one cross-sectional study. Regarding the cutoff points used to classify vitamin D status, most of the studies set deficiency at 25-hydroxyvitamin D <20 ng/mL, sufficiency at ≥30 ng/mL, and insufficiency as the interval between these values. Regarding intervention strategies, most used cholecalciferol for supplementation, but there was great variation in the dose and supplementation time. When evaluating the effect of vitamin D supplementation on HbA1c, a significant improvement in glycemic control was observed in 50% of the studies. However, only one of these studies was classified as being of positive methodological quality, with three having their quality classified as neutral and one as negative.

Outlook

There is yet no consistent evidence on the effect of vitamin D supplementation on glycemic control as an adjuvant in the treatment of children and adolescents with T1DM.
The Winery in Context: The Workshop Complex at Ambarçay, Diyarbakır (SE Turkey)
Authors: Oğuz-Kırca Eser Deniz , Coşkun Aytaç
Published: July 2022

The paper examines the physical and contextual situation of a series of nine rock hewn pressing installations forming a complex of a winery workshop (ca. 5 decares) which was unearthed during excavations executed at the Roman site of Ambar village. Matching the Upper Mesopotamia and fed by a fair distance permanent water source – the Ambarçay Stream in close proximity, the site lies over limestone bedrock convenient for processing in a hard ground, right nearby a moderate size quarry besides two spring spouts. The site’s scale and function is cross-questioned through the instrumentality of original data and interrelatedness of a couple of archaeo-environmental features as well as through a selection of comparative evidence and proxy figures addressed in the ancient and historical accounts. Appearingly; topography, surrounding agricultural land and hydrology were three driving agents of the positioning and planning of the complex which looks spacious for household usage but rather demonstrates itself as an atelier of inhabitants (belike run at the institutional level) that expanded into post 3rd century. When also confined to the economic convergence of the value of wine recorded in the ancient and pre-modern sources, total relative capacity of one-time pressing operation generates an idea over figures that could suffice to more than a latifundium or a resident population.
Numerical simulation of nanofluid flow between two parallel disks using 3-stage Lobatto III-A formula
Authors: Alotaibi Hammad , Rafique Khuram
Published: July 2022

The development of nanofluid technology has become a key research area in physics, mathematics, engineering, and materials science. Nowadays, in many industrial applications, nanofluids are widely used to enhance thermophysical properties such as thermal diffusivity, thermal conductivity, and convective heat transfer. Scientists and engineers have established interests in the direction of flow problems developed via disk-shaped bodies. There are various logics to discuss flow phenomenon due to rotating bodies, but its applications include in thermal power engineering system, gas turbine rotors, air cleaning machines, aerodynamics, etc. Nowadays manufacturing industries have inaugurated to select liquid based on heat transfer properties. Therefore, this article focuses on studying the laminar incompressible nanofluid between two parallel disks. Mathematical formulations of the law of conservation of mass, momentum, and heat transfer are investigated numerically. By using suitable similarities, the flow equations are converted into nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The resulting equations were solved numerically via MATLAB software. The effects of physical parameters of interest, such as Reynolds number, magnetic factor, Brownian parameter, and thermophoresis parameter on normal velocity, streamwise velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles are computed and presented using the graphs. The results revealed that the energy profile significantly rises, and the profile moves closer to the upper disk by enhancing the Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameter. The dynamics behind this is that by increasing the Brownian motion, the boundary layer wideness increases which increases the temperature. Moreover, streamwise velocity increases for large values of Reynolds number. Besides, the thermophoresis profile increases for large values of the thermophoresis factor. It could be observed that shear stress at nonporous/porous disk is adjusted by selecting a suitable value of injection velocity at the porous disk. Also, normal velocity decreases by increasing the parameter M.

Headmasters’ Attitudes Towards Career Management Opportunities for Pre-School Education Teachers
Authors: Klanienė Ilona , Šmitienė Gražina , Vainorė Raimonda
Published: July 2022

In an ever-changing world, the goals of education and the expectations of education policy makers, society and parents for the education system are also changing. Pre-school educational institutions need teachers with professional excellence and leadership skills who are constantly improving their competencies. In this context, the management of a teacher’s career is becoming a particularly important issue. In the management of a teacher’s career, not only the motivation of the teacher himself but also the role of the headmaster is very important in creating conditions and providing opportunities for the development of a teacher’s career. The article reveals the attitude of headmasters in pre-school educational institutions to the possibilities of pedagogue career management. It presents the results of qualitative research (interviews with headmasters in pre-school institutions), which revealed that headmasters understand the importance of teachers’ career management both for the teacher himself and for the quality of the institution’s activities. Some headmasters take care of a teacher’s career, creating conditions for improving competencies, and providing financial and psychological support. However, not all headmasters in pre-school institutions create favourable conditions for the development of a teacher’s career by delegating this function to the teacher himself.
Public Debt and Economic Growth in the Aftermath of the Covid-19 Economic Crisis
Authors: Rimšēvičs Ilmārs
Published: July 2022

The Great Financial Crisis (GFC) of 2008 to 2010 increased the size of the public debt and decreased the fiscal space. The problem stems from the fact that fiscal resources are limited. Many OECD countries had used a substantial part of their limited fiscal space. Researchers suspected that higher levels of public debt in the future could slow down GDP growth. The first attempts to detect the tipping point at which GDP growth stalls or loses steam were made right after the GFC. However, the discussion was left open. The Covid-19 crisis required the further use of unprecedented amounts of fiscal stimulus resources to stabilise the economic situation. The objective of this paper is to establish whether new data of elevated public debt levels in relation to GDP confirms that higher levels of debt to GDP have an impact on future GDP growth and future financial stability. Debt and GDP data from OECD countries for the years 2000 to 2026 was used in order to carry out multilinear regression analysis, establishing the relationship between debt and future GDP growth. The results provide compelling evidence that the accumulation of higher debt levels slows down GDP growth, and require more fiscal resources in the future to stabilise the economic situation, compared with countries with lower accumulated public debt levels. Hence, higher inflation will require even more resources to service the debt.
Pre-School Global Citizenship Education: an Ethnographic Study
Authors: Žegunienė Vaida
Published: July 2022

The aim of this article is to provide an overview of pre-school global citizenship education. Modern society is facing new challenges and social problems affecting all people. In order to tackle them successfully, it is advisable to talk with children about these issues from an early age. The pre-school age is described as the most appropriate time to develop global citizens who are able to recognise the problems of the modern world not only in their immediate environment, but also to understand the links between their immediate environment and the world. The paper presents some of the results of a micro-ethnographic study conducted at X pre-school. The observation of a group of pre-school children was carried out, and interviews with pre-school teachers were organised. The data gathered from the study revealed that global citizenship education is manifested in the formal activities of pre-school children. Global citizenship is manifested through children’s construction of knowledge about their immediate environment and their home country, complemented by new knowledge about the world. Children are able to acknowledge themselves as global citizens, to recognise and talk about social problems in the context of the immediate environment and the world, propose solutions to global problems, and contribute actively to the creation of a clean, safe and sustainable environment.
Duplex Labeling and Manipulation of Neuronal Proteins Using Sequential CRISPR/Cas9 Gene Editing
Authors: Droogers Wouter J. , Willems Jelmer , MacGillavry Harold D. , de Jong Arthur P. H.
Published: July 2022

CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knock-in methods enable the labeling of individual endogenous proteins to faithfully determine their spatiotemporal distribution in cells. However, reliable multiplexing of knock-in events in neurons remains challenging because of cross talk between editing events. To overcome this, we developed conditional activation of knock-in expression (CAKE), allowing efficient, flexible, and accurate multiplex genome editing. To diminish cross talk, CAKE is based on sequential, recombinase-driven guide RNA (gRNA) expression to control the timing of genomic integration of each donor sequence. We show that CAKE is broadly applicable in rat neurons to co-label various endogenous proteins, including cytoskeletal proteins, synaptic scaffolds, ion channels and neurotransmitter receptor subunits. To take full advantage of CAKE, we resolved the nanoscale co-distribution of endogenous synaptic proteins using super-resolution microscopy, demonstrating that their co-organization correlates with synapse size. Finally, we introduced inducible dimerization modules, providing acute control over synaptic receptor dynamics in living neurons. These experiments highlight the potential of CAKE to reveal new biological insight. Altogether, CAKE is a versatile method for multiplex protein labeling that enables the detection, localization, and manipulation of endogenous proteins in neurons.

Graphical abstract

7-Ketocholesterol (or 7-oxocholesterol) is an oxysterol essentially formed by cholesterol autoxidation. It is often found at enhanced levels in the body fluids and/or target tissues of patients with age-related diseases (cardiovascular, neuronal, and ocular diseases) as well as in subjects concerned with civilization diseases (type 2 diabetes, bowel diseases, and metabolic syndrome). The involvement of increased 7-ketocholesterol levels in the pathophysiology of these diseases is widely suspected. Indeed, 7-ketocholesterol at elevated concentrations is a powerful inducer of oxidative stress, inflammation, and cellular degeneration which are common features of all these diseases. It is important to better know the origin of 7-ketocholesterol (diet, incidence of environmental factors, and endogenous formation (autoxidation and enzymatic synthesis)) and its inactivation mechanisms which include esterification, sulfation, oxidation, and reduction. This knowledge will make it possible to act at different levels to regulate 7-ketocholesterol level and counteract its toxicity in order to limit the incidence of diseases associated with this oxysterol. These different points as well as food and biomedical applications are addressed in this review.
The use of natural zeolite and chamotte clay-based sorbents for the extraction of sodium and potassium ions from saline water:
a preliminary study
Authors: Seilkhanova Gulziya , Rakhym Akmaral , Kan Anastasiya , Kenessova Aruzhan , Mastai Yitzhak
Published: July 2022

In this work, sorbents based on natural zeolite (Z) and chamotte clay (ChC) treated with NaCl and HNO3 solutions were obtained to extract Na+ and K+ ions from saline water. The physicochemical characteristics of the obtained sorbents were studied by SEM, EDAX, and BET methods. It was found that successive treatment with NaCl and HNO3 solutions has a positive effect on the sorption properties of the studied materials. The maximum increase in the specific surface area from 4.5 m2/g to 39.3 m2/g is observed for acid-treated Z, and the specific surface area of ChC also increases almost 2-fold from 8.4 m2/g to 15.3 m2/g. Na+ and K+ ions are extracted from water due to ion exchange with Z and ChC cations. As a result of determining the cation exchange capacity (CEC) of the studied sorbents, it was found that treatment with a NaCl solution improves the ion exchange properties of the sorbent and leads to the formation of a “homoionic” form of aluminosilicates. Due to that the sorbents more easily enter ion exchange reactions. The authors established the sorption activity of the obtained materials based on natural Z and ChC with respect to Na+ and K+ cations. The maximum recovery rate is 28.45% for Na+ ions with the ChC-Na-H sorbent and 76.28% for K+ ions with the ChC-Na sorbent. Among Z-based sorbents, the most effective forms are Z-Na-H (15.44% Na+ recovery) and Z-Na (60.47% K+ recovery).

The purpose of this article is to show the challenges and difficulties faced by primary school students in the municipality of Tecpan de Galeana, Guerrero, derived from the COVID-19 pandemic, since they have been significantly affected, because the Mexican State has been overwhelmed by the negative effects of the pandemic, and with it, various students have not been able to access or continue their education. The research is of a socio-legal type, due to the level and timing of the research carried out, it is descriptive, for the purpose is that of applied research, the inductive method was used and the paradigm used is the interpretive one. The techniques and instruments used were: data collection directly from reality, surveys and interviews, books, legislation, jurisprudence, magazines, among others. To do this, we will get to know what the reality is like for primary school children who reside in said municipality, in the same way we will get to know the measures that the Mexican State has taken in this regard and how effective they have been. In addition, all the recommendations made by various international organizations will be consulted. Among the main conclusions, it was found that undoubtedly the human right to  primary education is a human right recognized not only by international organizations, but also by the Political Constitution of Mexico, as well as by State constitutions and laws. Therefore, the State has the obligation to comply with guaranteeing this human right. It was concluded that the Mexican State did not know how to take the appropriate measures, and did not invest enough to face the difficulties that arose in educational matters as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to this, many parents were unable to pay for the various expenses involved in distance education, due to the unemployment that was triggered by the pandemic.

Authors: Mahrunnisa Fitria , Sumadiono Sumadiono , Mulatsih Sri
Published: July 2022

Background: Asthma, eczema and allergic rhinitis are influenced by both genetic factor and environtment factors. Based on family history of allergy, allergic trace cards can identify the level of allergic risk in children. The relationship between family history of allergy and manifestation of allergic disease as a single allergy disease and allergic multimorbidity still need to be explored. The objective of this study was to identify the associations between family history of allergic disease and manifestation of allergic disease in school-age children.Methods: We conducted a cross sectional study on school age children with 6-13 years old at eight elementary schools in Yogyakarta. Family history of allergy was defined as reported asthma, eczema and allergic rhinitis in a parent or sibling and classified the level of allergic risk based on allergic trace cards. Subjects were questioned by standardized ISAAC questionnaire. The relationship between the two was analyzed by the Chi-squared analysis to assess the prevalence ratio (PR).Results: A total of 272 children with an average age of 8.4 years, allergic manifestations occurred more as multimorbidity (53%) with the highest incidence of RA+asthma (9%) compared with one allergic disease (47%) with the highest incidence of RA (11%). There was a significant relationship between family history of allergy and all manifestations of allergic disease with an increased risk of developing allergies by 3.3 (PR 3.3; 95% CI 2.3-4.8) and 2.8 times (PR 2.8; IK95% 1.8-4.3) in the moderate and high-risk score group. Asthma, RA and DA have a risk for coexistence with 2 other diseases of 2.5 (RP 2.5 IK95%; 1.9-3), 2.25 (PR 2.25 IK95%; 1.7 -3) and 1.9 times (PR 2.5 IK95%; 1.45-2.4).Conclusion: Family history of allergic disease is a risk factors for the development of allergic manifestation both a single allergic disease and multimobidity.
A case report of ivory vertebra sign: an initial radiological manifestation of underlying abdominal malignancy
Authors: Pothiawala Sohil
Published: July 2022

Low back pain is one of the most common presenting complaints in the emergency department, and a plain radiograph of the lumbar spine is usually the first diagnostic modality. The ivory vertebra sign refers to the radiological appearance of a smooth, white ivory-like appearance of the affected single vertebra or multiple vertebral bodies. It is sometimes the initial radiologic manifestation of a variety of infectious, neoplastic, or metabolic diseases. Subsequent computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are generally indicated to characterize the details, as well as look for other occult lesions. It is therefore important for emergency physicians to be aware of this, as this will aid in the appropriate evaluation and rapid diagnosis of the underlying disorder.
Las empresas alemanas en la Argentina durante la segunda fase de industrialización por sustitución de importaciones (1960-1970)
Authors: Rossi Ignacio Andrés
Published: July 2022

El papel de las empresas extranjeras ha venido suscitando el interés de los historiadores en los últimos años. Los aportes más recientes, aunque de vital importancia, se han abocado a exámenes más globales que de casos nacionales puntuales. En este trabajo proponemos analizar el papel de las empresas extranjeras alemanas en la economía argentina entre los años 1960 y 1970. A partir de una base de datos elaborada por un equipo de investigadores e investigadoras argentinas, se examinan variables comparativas como el volumen de capital, las ramas elegidas y la cantidad de firmas registradas entre ambos periodos. Se ha podido observar la importancia del capital alemán durante la etapa de segundo ciclo de inversiones extranjeras y de la segunda fase de la Industrialización por Sustitución de Importaciones (ISI); pero también se establecieron algunos matices importantes entre las firmas grandes, medianas y pequeñas en lo que respecta a una mayor diversificación como el impacto del volumen de capital.

The importance of digitalization and robotization in vehicle production in the European Union
Authors: Török László
Published: July 2022

Vehicle manufacturing is an industry in which the technologies used by Industry 4.0 and their evolution can best be traced. Digitalization-robotization is paramount to the technical methods used in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The question is how close a correlation between productivity and digitalization robotics in vehicle production is in the Member States of the European Union. I perform the relationship between the two variables by correlation calculation. Then I classify the member states according to the closeness of the relationship between the two variables using the method of hierarchical cluster analysis. Empirical results show a robust relationship, with the highest per capita production value in those Member States with the highest degree of digitalization-robotization in vehicle production. In conclusion, the countries in Central and Eastern Europe and the end of the productivity rankings need to increase the degree of digitalization of their vehicle production to increase their productivity and competitiveness.
The design of a webchat assessment framework for contact centres in Asia
Authors: Lockwood Jane
Published: July 2022

In the global contact centre industry, workplaces are rapidly replacing phone customer support with written webchat exchange. This means that webchat agents use their computers, phones and other mobile devices to communicate synchronously through texting, when serving customers. As with voice assessments in the previous decade, there has been an urgent need for webchat communications assessment solutions in the outsourced and offshored sites in China, India and the Philippines, where English is the second language. Such webchat assessment requirements range from recruitment benchmarking to diagnostic communications profiling of webchat agents leading to coaching solutions that enhance business performance. An assessment solution for diagnostic profiling is the specific subject of this article. Whilst some scholarly research has been carried out on webchat exchange, there is little on assessment processes. This article therefore describes a diagnostic assessment to appraise and diagnose webchat communication competency to underpin webchat coaching.

Using the Concept of Fuzzy Logic and Controller System in Interpolation and Functions Approximation
Authors: Abu-Saman Awni M.
Published: July 2022

The main aim of this contribution is to present an alternative approach for interpolation and function approximation from a given data. Instead of the traditional interpolation methods we consider and propose a numerical procedure for interpolation using the concept of fuzzy logic and
membership functions. The method can be used for interpolating data resulting from physical experiments, engineering, medicine, applied sciences etc. Fuzzification will be applied to the given data according to Mamdani technique and membership functions will be chosen to satisfy the interpolation
mathematical condition. The defuzzification process will be implemented to get the crisp values of the interpolation. The procedure will be implemented on the mathematical code MATLAB and its Simulink fuzzy logic features. Finally the applicability and efficiency of the procedure is illustrated
by numerical examples.
Univariate Time Series Analysis of Consumer Price Index on Food and Non-alcoholic Beverages
Authors: Magnus Ogolo Ibinabo , Lekia Nkpordee
Published: July 2022

The paper examined univariate time series forecast of consumer price index on the consumption of food and nonalcoholic beverages in Nigeria. It filled the knowledge gap by explicitly modeling and forecasting consumer price index in Nigeria using the univariate ARIMA model. The work
was restricted to Nigerian Consumer Price Index. It was also restricted to food consumption (FC) data and food & nonalcoholic beverages consumption (FNBC) data from 1995-2021. This paper analyses were carried out using gretl 2019c, Minitab 16 and Micro software Excel (2010). The monthly
and yearly means plots were done, so as to have a better understanding of the series behaviours. The series plots points to the fact that there is possibility that the time series are integrated of order 1 for food consumption series with no seasonality, while integrated of order 1 for food
& nonalcoholic beverages consumption series with seasonality of order 12. Stationarity after second difference of the first differencing was obtained for both series. A suitable ARIMA Model was obtained for both series and was used for models forecast computation. Hence, the computed result
suggested that ARIMA(0,1,1) and ARIMA(0,1,1)(0,0,0)12 model were the best model for estimating and forecasting the two time series, using model selection criteria and accuracy measures. The plots of the forecasts generated for the FC and FNBC shows that the two variables are dependent
and also shows that any gradual increase in the food consumption tends to pave way for increase in the food & nonalcoholic beverages consumption or a drastic drop in the food consumption will also drop the food & nonalcoholic beverages consumption in the same manner. It seems reasonable
to conclude that there is significant relationship between the food consumption and food & nonalcoholic beverages consumption series. It was recommended that more detailed work should be carried out in the area of co-integration analysis of the two variables to enhance a better understanding
and prediction distribution in Nigeria.

Uphill excavation of an escalator barrel between operational underground platforms
Authors: Kumpfmueller Sebastian , Nasekhian Ali , Dryden Paul
Published: July 2022

A new underground triple escalator has been provided at Bank Station in London as part of a major capacity upgrade project. Unusually the inclined excavator tunnel was excavated uphill rather than downhill due restricted access. Using a sprayed concrete lining and no pilot tunnel, it was a first in the UK for a triple escalator. The new escalator intercepted several existing structures which had to be backfilled and then broken out, some just 0.5 m from operational Tube lines. This paper sets out design considerations, construction sequence decisions, operational risk management and discusses the existing assets’ response to uphill tunnelling based on a comprehensive monitoring scheme.
Parámetro de control de regularidad constitucional frente a las emergencias sanitarias
Authors: Moreno-Reynaga Martín
Published: July 2022

Una de las modificaciones en el derecho mexicano consiste en el reconocimiento del parámetro de control de regularidad constitucional por la Suprema Corte de Justicia de la Nación, que reconoce jerárquicamente a los tratados internacionales de derechos humanos con la Constitución. Esto produjo una modificación material y procesal en el derecho constitucional mexicano, principiando la época del tiempo de los derechos. Sin embargo, debido de la emergencia sanitaria ocasionada por el sars-CoV2, la eficacia del parámetro de regularidad disminuyó por las restricciones y suspensiones de derechos que se ordenaron, y se afectó el ejercicio de los derechos humanos por una situación de emergencia sanitaria. En el presente trabajo, investigaremos los efectos de la crisis de la covid-19 en el parámetro de control de regularidad, precisando cuáles son los problemas que se originan con motivo de la emergencia sanitaria. Y a partir de la construcción nacional e interamericana en materia de derechos humanos, se definirán qué medidas debe adoptar México para fortalecer el parámetro de regularidad sin que el ejercicio de los derechos humanos disminuya de manera desproporcional.
Suspensión al ejercicio de los derechos a la libertad de tránsito y de reunión en el marco de la pandemia por covid-19
Authors: Hernández-López Luís Ernesto
Published: July 2022

La pandemia por sars-CoV-2 (covid-19) ha supuesto un reto no solo para el sistema social, sanitario y económico del Estado mexicano, sino también para su respectivo sistema jurídico y para la garantía de los derechos humanos reconocidos por su Carta fundamental en favor de todas las personas. Pues en aras de garantizar la seguridad, la salud y la contención del virus, los distintos niveles de organización política (federal, estatal y municipal) han optado por la emisión de medidas que afectan el pleno goce y ejercicio de prerrogativas como la libertad de reunión y de tránsito.

Sin embargo, para que aquellas medidas se consideren legítimas, deben efectuarse en el marco de una situación excepcional para la vida de un país; y cumplir con los requisitos y con los estándares normativos previstos por el artículo 29 de la Constitución Política de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos, así como por el ordinal 27 de la Convención Americana sobre los Derechos Humanos. Condiciones generales que abordaremos de conformidad con los criterios establecidos en la jurisprudencia interamericana, desde una perspectiva teleológica de esos preceptos, con la intención de dilucidar el contexto jurídico y social en que las referidas libertades serían susceptibles de suspensión.
Visibilización de personas con discapacidad en Cúcuta
Authors: Vanegas Sáenz Héctor Daniel , Rodríguez Peña Alejandra del Mar
Published: July 2022

Introducción: el concepto de inclusión social está ligado al de equidad, ya que permite el empoderamiento, la vinculación y la participación de todas las personas en la vida social, económica y política del país. Lograr que las personas con discapacidad alcancen la plena integración, reconozcan sus potencialidades y no se les encasille en su déficit es un compromiso que debe ser respaldado desde las políticas públicas del país, las cuales deberán incentivar la transformación cultural.

Metodología: durante los años 2017 y 2018, se organizaron dos ediciones de la Feria de la Inclusión en las que se invitó a diferentes instituciones de la ciudad de Cúcuta que trabajan en pro de las personas con discapacidad y a diez empresas privadas. En la segunda versión de la feria, se aplicó una encuesta a 465 personas asistentes, dándole un enfoque descriptivo y deductivo al estudio.

Resultados: se percibe una gran aceptación en torno al concepto de inclusión laboral por parte de los encuestados, pues más del 98% de ellos manifestó estar de acuerdo con brindar oportunidades laborales a personas con discapacidad.

Conclusiones: este proyecto ha contribuido a la identificación de puntos que hay que revisar para llevar a cabo procesos de inclusión social y laboral de personas con discapacidad.
