A rare rosuvastatin-induced urticaria in a high-risk cardiovascular patient: A case report
Authors: MALVIKA BABLAD  , AKSHAY DAS
Published: February 2025

Statins are widely used lipid-lowering agents essential for the prevention and management of cardiovascular diseases. Despite their proven efficacy and safety, rare adverse drug reactions (ADRs), such as allergic skin reactions, can occur. This case report describes a 54-year-old male with ischemic heart disease, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes mellitus, who developed pruritic, red-pigmented skin lesions characteristic of urticaria within 10 days of starting rosuvastatin 40 mg daily. The symptoms resolved after discontinuation of the drug and administration of symptomatic treatment with cetirizine and calamine lotion. The likelihood of rosuvastatin causing the urticaria was assessed using the Naranjo Adverse Drug Reaction Probability Scale, which indicated a probable relationship. Although statins are generally well-tolerated, rare hypersensitivity reactions may occur due to immune-mediated mechanisms or mast cell activation. Early recognition and withdrawal of the offending agent are crucial for swift symptom resolution and prevention of further complications. In patients requiring continued lipid-lowering therapy, alternative agents such as pravastatin may be considered. This case highlights the importance of post-marketing surveillance in identifying rare ADRs, ensuring pharmacovigilance, and improving patient care. Increased awareness among clinicians is essential for timely detection and management of uncommon drug-related reactions to enhance treatment outcomes.

Evaporation is the process of phase change from liquid to gas that can occur at low temperatures, even at room temperature. “Many people mistakenly believe that water only evaporates at 100°C. In fact, evaporation happens at the liquid’s surface, where molecules with high kinetic energy leave the surface and turn into vapor, unlike boiling, which occurs throughout the liquid at a specific temperature. This article explores the factors affecting evaporation, such as temperature, surface area, humidity, and air movement. Everyday examples of evaporation include water evaporating from a bucket, clothes drying, and dew disappearing. To address misconceptions, the article suggests simple experiments, molecular visualization models, and discussions of evaporation phenomena.” A proper understanding of evaporation is expected to increase students' interest and build a strong foundation for further learning in physics and chemistry.

This journal focuses on the interaction between economic conditions and social structures that influence the well-being of society, as well as the relationship between economic and social aspects and their impacts on communities. Socioeconomic components such as education, health, and employment are interconnected and affect the quality of life. The study identifies various issues that arise, including poverty, unemployment, and social inequality, all of which stem from injustices in the distribution of economic resources. The effects of these injustices can be observed in the rising unemployment rates and declining quality of life, which in turn affect the social and economic stability of communities. Additionally, economic barriers such as policy uncertainty, lack of infrastructure, and limited access to capital hinder economic growth. Many communities remain trapped in a cycle of poverty due to inadequate access to training and education. To promote economic growth and social welfare, the government must provide support through inclusive economic policies, social assistance programs, skills training, and investments in infrastructure. Effective solutions are expected to be found by understanding the relationship between economic and social aspects and the existing barriers.

Abstract. The author highlights that there is still a lot of discriminative action against women, even in the church environment. Through this article, the author intends to investigate the existence and value of women in the ancient times, in the cultures of Israel, Greece, and Rome, which represent the portrait of women before the time of Christ, and also the portrait of women in the narrative in the Gospel of John. For this reason, the author will utilize historical records and archaeology, in addition to, of course, the narrative of the role of women in the Gospel of John. The result of the study shows that women in ancient Jewish, Greek, and Roman cultures were viewed as inferior to men. In contrast, the Gospel of John presented Jesus as a transformer for women, who emancipated and placed them in the same position as Jesus' male disciples, with the same eligibility to be taught and to preach the gospel.Abstrak. Penulis menyoroti bahwa masih banyak terjadi perlakuan diskriminatif terhadap perempuan, bahkan di lingkungan gereja. Melalui tulisan ini penulis ingin menyelidiki eksistensi dan nilai perempuan di masa lampau, dalam budaya Israel, Yunani, Romawi, yang merepresentasikan potret perempuan sebelum masa Kristus, dan juga potret perempuan dalam narasi di Injil Yohanes. Untuk itu penulis akan memanfaatkan catatan-catatan dan arkeologi sejarah, selain tentu saja, juga narasi kiprah para perempuan di Injil Yohanes. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perempuan dalam kultur kuno Yahudi, Yunani, dan Romawi dipandang lebih rendah daripada laki-laki. Kontras dengan itu, Injil Yohanes menampilkan Yesus sebagai transformator bagi para perempuan, yang mengangkat dan meletakkan mereka di posisi yang sama dengan para murid Yesus yang pria, dengan kelayakan yang sama untuk diajar dan memberitakan Injil.

L’INDUSTRIA DEI TAGLIENTI DI MONTE S. VITTORIA (NEONELI, SARDEGNA)
Authors: Loi Cinzia , Brizzi Vittorio
Published: February 2025

Nel corso degli studi sull’industria litica rinvenuta nel sito di S. Vittoria, individuato all’interno dell’Oasi naturalistica di Assai, nel territorio di Neoneli (Or), sono stati esaminati finora 357 strumenti e 51 cuspidi. Queste ultime, frammentarie e perciò non più riutilizzabili, studiate sia da un punto di vista funzionale che sperimentale, hanno rivelato tracce diagnostiche di impatto. Ad eccezione dei foliati, i restanti reperti si caratterizzano per l’assenza di ritocco nel senso classico del termine. Tale complesso materiale risulta perciò contraddistinto dalla produzione rapida e opportunistica di manufatti a margini taglienti (schegge), non ravvivati successivamente con stacchi minuti (ritocco). La funzione di questi reperti, di cui sono state analizzate dimensioni e angoli di taglio, potrebbe essere stata quella di utensili atti al depezzamento della selvaggina. Sulla base di ciò, nel presente lavoro si verificano soprattutto gli elementi che hanno portato ad escludere per essi altri possibili utilizzi. La collocazione geografica dell’insediamento, situato in posizione dominante, unitamente ai dati scaturiti dalle sopraccitate analisi, suggeriscono di considerare questo sito come un luogo in cui, oltre ad osservare la selvaggina ed i suoi spostamenti, venivano effettuate le operazioni di macellazione successive all’attività venatoria praticata nel territorio.

Con el objeto de priorizar los sectores de excavación en futuras campañas se han realizado dos intervenciones geofísicas, la más reciente en el año 2009, usando el método de rádar de penetración terrestre (georrádar) en su modalidad 3D. El yacimiento que por sus estructuras arquitectónicas de piedra y depósitos presenta forma de montículo cónico, posee potentes capas de derrumbe. Ambos factores (relieve y derrumbe) producen imágenes georrádar poco nítidas, dificultando la interpretación arqueológica. En el presente estudio se describen las estrategias seguidas para obtener imágenes rádar lo más nítidas posibles; como son la corrección topográfica de los datos, y la creación de superficies alabeadas e imágenes tridimensionales descartando los niveles de derrumbe.
REPERTI BRONZEI DAL NURAGHE BENEZZIDDO, AIDOMAGGIORE (ORISTANO)
Authors: Loi Cinzia
Published: February 2025

In occasione di una recente ricognizione presso il nuraghe Benezziddo si è recuperato un gruppo di oggetti metallici, prevalentemente bronzei. Non se ne conosce l’originario contesto, in quanto i reperti sono stati raccolti nella terra smossa di uno scavo abusivo davanti all’ingresso del nuraghe.
I l complesso è costituito da 31 reperti per un peso totale di 1742 grammi, ascrivibili cronologicamente all’età nuragica, romana e altomedievale. Tra i reperti attribuibili ad epoca nuragica, spiccano un frammento di panella in rame, un frammento di lingotto ox-hide, un frammento di ascia a margini rialzati e un frammento di spada votiva.
L’eterogeneità dei reperti e il luogo di rinvenimento suggeriscono che questi oggetti - forse nemmeno tutti provenienti dal complesso archeologico in esame - siano stati interrati di proposito in un punto facilmente rintracciabile e infine sfuggiti per motivi imprecisati al recupero da parte degli stessi cercatori.
RESULTADOS DEL ESTUDIO ANTROPOLÓGICO DE LA NECRÓPOLIS DEL FORO DE POLLENTIA (ALCUDIA, MALLORCA). CAMPAÑAS 2004-2008
Authors: Cardona López Francisca
Published: February 2025

Los trabajos de excavación de la necrópolis hallada sobre los restos del foro romano de la ciudad de Pollentia (Alcudia, Mallorca) comenzaron en la década de los 80 del siglo XX y continúan hoy día. El estudio de los restos óseos correspondientes a las campañas de excavación de los años 2004 a 2008 ha dado a conocer una población típica mediterránea, que realizaba una actividad física intensa, evidenciada por las múltiples patologías encontradas a nivel de la columna vertebral y las marcadas improntas musculares presentes en las extremidades. Estas características están más presentes en individuos de sexo masculino. Se ha apreciado además, el escaso número de individuos infantiles y seniles en la muestra.

SACRIFICIO DE ANIMALES Y RITUAL EN EL POLIDEPORTIVO DE MARTOS-LA ALBERQUILLA (MARTOS, JAÉN)

Published: February 2025

El estudio de los animales inhumados en el complejo estructural 7 de La Alberquilla, en el último tercio del IV Milenio cal A.C., nos ha permitido confirmar, gracias a las huellas de corte presentes en un esqueleto de bóvido joven, la realización de sacrificios animales previa a la inhumación articulada de éstos. Más allá de la posible realización de fiestas de cohesión y exhibición de la desigualdad, la proliferación de tales rituales de inhumación de animales y personas entre la segunda mitad del IV Milenio y todo el III Milenio A.C., vincula, de nuevo, el ritual a la capacidad de amortizar riqueza, a veces de difícil reproducción,y por tanto a la demostración periódica de la progresiva diferenciación social en las comunidades de la Prehistoria Reciente.
ARCHÉOLOGIE PRÉHISTORIQUE DE LA VIOLENCE ET DE LA GUERRE. QUELQUES RÉFLEXIONS ET HYPOTHÈSES
Authors: Guilaine Jean
Published: February 2025

L’auteur offre une synthèse sur l’apparition de la violence et la guerre dans les sociétés préhistoriques. Malgré l’idée généralisée d’absence d’affrontements et de tensions entre les chasseurs-collecteurs paléolithiques et mésolithiques, les comportements d’agression, les conflits et les morts violentes sont présents dès l’apparition des premiers groupes humains en Europe. En acceptant la faible visibilité qu’offre le registre archéologique pour ce type de comportement et les difficultés méthodologiques pour distinguer entre les contextes reliés au rituel et au conflit, l’intégration de l’Archéologie dans d’autres disciplines complémentaires comme l’Anthropologie et l’Histoire permet une lecture objective des relations sociales, et rend viable une interprétation du développement de la violence dans le passé.
Une série d’exemples concrets est par conséquent présentée, dans lesquels on peut suivre l’usage de la violence depuis les moments anciens de la Préhistoire européenne, en prêtant une attention particulière à l’apparition d’indicateurs (scènes d’art rupestre, armes, témoins archéologiques de massacres...) qui nous parlent du conflit comme d’un élément institutionnel et de son évolution en Occident de façon plus lente que dans les anciens empires du Proche- Orient. Peu à peu, depuis la fin du Néolithique et en particulier durant les âges du Bronze et du Fer, la figure du “guerrier” se convertira en acteur indiscutable de la dynamique des sociétés complexes.
WALLS, GATES AND TOWERS. FORTIFIED SETTLEMENTS IN THE SOUTH AND CENTRE OF PORTUGAL: SOME NOTES ABOUT VIOLENCE AND WALLS IN THE 3rd MILLENIUM BCE
Authors: Gonçalves Victor S. , Sousa Ana Catarina , Costeira Catarina
Published: February 2025

In relation to the question of violence in the third millennium BCE, a synthesis is presented of fortified sites situated in the Centre and South of Portugal. The analysis is divided into three large territorial units: 1. Upper Eastern Algarve, with special emphasis on the Cerro do Castelo de Santa Justa; 2. Alentejo, in particular the middle Alentejo, where some recently excavated settlements and farms are to be found (São Pedro and Porto das Carretas); 3. Estremadura, the region where there is the largest concentration of fortified settlements (currently numbering 18), with over a century of archaeological research. Four main aspects were considered in testing for the possible existence of signs of violence: 1. Models of implantation; 2. Chronologies and discontinuities in the occupation of the sites; 3. Defensive architectures, especially the general ground plans, towers and gates, and internal and external reinforcements. 4. Reconstructions and remodellings.By comparing these indicators with other archaeological data, the fortifications are considered as a reaction to the violence that existed between communities, testifying to effective territorial appropriation and denoting migratory movements of the first copper archaeometallurgists originating from Andalusia.
VELIM AND VIOLENCE
Authors: Harding Anthony
Published: February 2025

The Bronze Age site of Velim, Czech Republic, saw the deposition of much skeletal material, mostly disarticulated and dumped in disorder in pits and ditches. A number of explanations have been advanced for this (cult, defence, normal burial, warfare followed by massacre). The paper considers the evidence for each explanation, and attempts a reinterpretation in the light of recent work on comparable sites, notably in the Tollense valley in north-east Germany, and Cliffs End Farm, south-east England.

FUENTE AMARGUILLA-CORTIJO NUEVO: ESPACIOS PRODUCTIVOS DEL SURESTE PENINSULAR EN LA EDAD DEL BRONCE
Authors: Navarro Ortega Ana D.
Published: February 2025

En este trabajo se exponen las principales aportaciones del estudio del yacimiento Fuente Amarguilla-Cortijo Nuevo situado en Almería. En las excavaciones realizadas en 1977 y 1997 se documentaron restos arqueológicos singulares que hasta ahora han permanecido inéditos. Este artículo presenta una síntesis del estudio de los conjuntos materiales y documentación gráfica del yacimiento. Se plantea la existencia de un espacio funcional dedicado al almacenamiento y procesado de productos alimenticios, posiblemente cereal. El análisis realizado sobre los restos arqueológicos evidencia la ausencia de referentes cercanos. La interpretación de su funcionalidad y la recuperación de la entidad arqueológica del yacimiento se ha realizado con el apoyo de una serie de analíticas que respaldan las hipótesis presentadas. Los análisis de C14 sitúan al yacimiento en momentos finales de la cultura argárica y posteriores.
