Con la presente investigación se determinó la contribución del Flipped classroom en el aprendizaje de la biología celular con razonamiento crítico. Una estrategia activa que promueve el desarrollo de nuevas competencias profesionales y cambios de paradigmas del docente en su práctica pedagógica. El abordaje investigativo realizado ha sido cuasi experimental con enfoque cuantitativo y analítico en 54 estudiantes sometidos a 08 sesiones virtuales como presenciales integrando el modelo Flipped classroom y a una prueba objetiva de 20 ítems, como instrumento de recolección de datos. Instrumento validado por cinco especialistas del área y un grupo piloto de estudiantes, alcanzando un coeficiente de confiabilidad alfa de Cronbach de 0,678. Los resultados obtenidos luego de aplicar esta estrategia didáctica, revela una disminución del 68% al 28% de estudiantes en nivel no logrado; un incremento del 32% al 64% en un nivel en proceso, y desde un 0% al 8%. en un nivel destacado. Hallazgos que luego de ser estimados con los estadísticos de pruebas descriptiva con p ˂ 0,05; y de pruebas inferenciales como la prueba de Wilcoxon y Mann Whitney con significancia estadística (p=0,003) y confiabilidad de 0,678), en muestras relacionadas en muestras y no relacionadas respectivamente, fundamenta que incorporar Flipped classroom o “clase invertida” fortalece las dimensiones del aprendizaje: conocer, comprender, aplicar y analizar, de las asignaturas de ciencias básicas, que generan rechazo en el estudiante de medicina que ingresan a la universidad.

Es conocida la poca producción científica en el País comparada a la producida a nivel regional y mundial. Las sociedades médicas persiguen potenciar el desarrollo académico y científico de sus miembros a través del desarrollo de cursos y eventos científicos. Se revisó el total de resúmenes de trabajos de investigación presentados al Congreso Peruano de Obstetricia y ginecología (2002-2010). Se realizó una descripción de las características de las investigaciones presentadas y se describió las variables en frecuencias y porcentajes. Además, se buscó con una estrategia de búsqueda en Google Scholar la publicación de los trabajos de investigación en revistas médicas indizadas. Se evaluó 389 resúmenes, la media de autores fue de 4,37 ± 1,93; los trabajos de diseño transversal fueron de 81,7 %; seguido por los reportes de casos 6,2 %. De las especialidades del evento científico, especialidad más frecuente fue Obstetricia (54,2%) seguida de ginecología (24,9%). El establecimiento de salud más frecuente fue el Hospital Madre Niño San Bartolomé (39/389) seguida del Hospital Nacional Arzobispo Loayza (24/389). La proporción de publicación fue de 14,13% (55/389), la mayoría (87,3%) fue publicado en la Revista Peruana de Ginecología y Obstetricia del Perú. Se concluye que existe una baja publicación de los trabajos presentados en el Congreso Peruano de Ginecología y Obstetricia, a pesar de contar con un órgano de difusión. La mayor parte de publicaciones se realizan en la revista científica de la sociedad. Se debe fomentar la publicación de resultados para disminuir la publicación gris en la literatura científica. Se deben tomar medidas para estimular la publicación de los trabajos presentados.

Authors:   Universidad César Vallejo, Soto-Caceres Victor
Published: December 2022

Las Facultades de Medicina Humana no consideran por lo general temas de sexualidad humana en su plan de estudios y al médico recién egresado siempre se le invita a dar conferencias sobre ese tema en la comunidad o tienen consultas sobre estos temas sin contar con preparación adecuada. El objetivo fue valuar el nivel de conocimientos sobre sexualidad humana en los médicos que inician SERUMS en la Región Lambayeque. Estudio observacional, prospectivo y descriptivo; población: totalidad de médicos recién graduados que asistieron al curso de inducción de SERUMS organizado por el Colegio Médico Consejo Regional de Chiclayo en 2019, fueron 76 egresados de tres universidades. Instrumento: cuestionario anónimo validado aplicado 20 minutos antes del término de conferencia, la tabulación fue manual y se aplicaron pruebas estadísticas para ver diferencias entre universidades o género. El nivel de conocimiento general fue considerado malo 60,5% y regular 32,9% no existiendo diferencias significativas según género, pero sí hubo diferencia según universidad y 93,4% consideran que temas de sexualidad humana y debate sobre problemas socio sexuales deben darse en las facultades de medicina. Se concluye que en general la mayoría de nuevos médicos tienen deficiente conocimiento sobre sexualidad humana y consideran necesaria la enseñanza de la sexología en las facultades.

Ideology and Political Culture: The Intellectual Practice of Heritage Foundation
Authors: Tian Kai
Published: December 2022

Think tanks is an important witness and symbol of American intellectuals’ response to the “climate of opinion” and ideological transformation during the Cold War. As a pioneer of civil think tanks and their transitions, Heritage Foundation, characterized by quick response, object-oriented research and Mandate for Leadership, symbolized the birth of advocacy think tank. At the same time, Heritage Foundation functioned as a mediator and practitioner of neo-conservatism, which merged diverse opinions into a more feasible plan. Relying on Ronald Reagan’s reform, during the 1970s and 1980s, Heritage Foundation turned the decision-making of American government towards neo-conservatism. The birth, development and practice of Heritage Foundation engaged implicit and explicit influence on the modern policy process, presenting a prism of a “knowledge-power” relationship.

Bioética en los procesos de investigación y bioprospección: relaciones con pueblos indígenas y comunidades locales en Colombia
Authors: Rojas Díaz Dalí Aleixandra , Nemogá Gabriel
Published: December 2022

Propósito/Contexto. En este artículo se exploran los principios bioéticos de autonomía y justicia, a la luz de tres casos de uso de la biodiversidad, tanto para fines investigativos como de aprovechamiento comercial, que involucran territorios colectivos de comunidades indígenas, afrodescendientes y predios de población campesina.
Metodología/Enfoque. En cada caso se examinaron sus características, los actores, las relaciones entre los actores y los beneficios contemplados para las partes. El estudio comprendió la recopilación y análisis de documentación y la realización de 10 entrevistas semiestructuradas con investigadores, representantes de instituciones, empresas y organizaciones indígenas y afrocolombianas. La investigación se realizó entre 2015 y 2017 e incluyó comunidades del Amazonas, Risaralda, Chocó y Antioquia.
Resultados/Hallazgos. Se encontró que las instituciones de investigación y los investigadores tramitan y obtienen las autorizaciones reglamentarias, mientras que las entidades del Estado registran una progresiva omisión de responsabilidades que afecta los derechos de las comunidades, por ejemplo, a través de la inobservancia del derecho a la consulta previa. Adicionalmente, en los casos de estudio, las relaciones que los actores establecen con las INAPRRCL (sigla de indígenas, negros, afrodescendientes, palenqueros, raizales, Rrom, campesinas y locales) varían en la observancia de principios bioéticos.
Discusión/Conclusiones/Contribuciones. Debido a que el régimen jurídico tiene un alcance limitado para el uso de la biodiversidad en investigación o innovación tecnológica, se evalúa y se discute si la bioética podría servir de guía para el respeto de la autonomía y la participación de beneficios de las comunidades en proyectos de investigación y bioprospección.
Discapacidad mental y bioética: de la postergación a las oportunidades
Authors: Pérez Ayala Manuel
Published: December 2022

Propósito/Contexto. La discapacidad mental altera el curso natural de la existencia humana porque impacta la construcción de la propia identidad y la interacción con el contexto en el que se habita. Pese a su relevancia, la discapacidad mental no ha estado en el centro del debate bioético. En el presente artículo se exponen algunas de las razones de esa postergación en el debate bioético, revisando desde los modelos comprensivos anteriormente imperantes hasta los modelos nuevos que incorporan principios éticos entre sus ejes.
 
Metodología/Enfoque. Se revisaron los distintos modelos desde donde se comprende la discapacidad mental, comenzando por los de enfoque médico y social hasta los recientes modelos biopsicosociales y de la diversidad. Se identifica que los primeros modelos tenían el concepto de capacidad como eje teórico y que los actuales se proponen develar y erradicar la lógica de la exclusión aún no superada.
Resultados/Hallazgos. La bioética tendría el doble rol de servir como modelo comprensivo y de instrumento que posibilite el debate ético en sociedades pluralistas, al propiciar abordajes ético-ontológicos útiles para el desarrollo de políticas sociosanitarias que permitan alcanzar la plena dignidad de las personas.
Discusión/Conclusiones/Contribuciones. Se concluye que, si bien la bioética no ha sido indiferente al debate sobre discapacidad mental, esta tampoco ha estado en el centro de su interés ni ha logrado constituir un aporte para superar la postergación. A los profesionales expertos les cabe guiar a otros escenarios de impacto social, más allá de la investigación y de lo académico, de manera que  los entornos educativos, culturales y comunitarios se conecten mejor alrededor de esa problemática.

Authors: Sánchez Osorio Nelson Mauricio , Navarro Pimiento Diana Camila , Naranjo Soler Angélica Johana
Published: December 2022

Propósito/Contexto. El crecimiento exponencial de la transmisión de enfermedades de tipo zoonótico, en los últimos años, ha generado grandes afectaciones en la población mundial. A su vez, una eventual pérdida de biodiversidad aumenta el nivel de la vulnerabilidad humana frente a enfermedades infecciosas zoonóticas. El presente artículo pretende aportar algunos elementos para la comprensión de la manera en que la pérdida de biodiversidad generada por la actividad económica humana favorece la transmisión de enfermedades infecciosas de tipo zoonótico y aumenta, como consecuencia, el nivel de vulnerabilidad de nuestra especie frente a este tipo de amenazas. Metodología/Enfoque. Se realizó un análisis crítico de las intervenciones realizadas por los ponentes que participaron en cada uno de los cuatro eventos de la Cátedra Abierta de Bioética Versión Especial 2020-1, titulada "Ambiente, Humanos y Pandemia", organizada por el Departamento de Bioética de la Universidad El Bosque. También se hizo una recopilación sistemática de diferentes artículos, en tres de las más importantes bases de datos de bioética en el mundo: Bioethics Research Library, Bioethics y German Reference Centre for Ethics in the Life Science. Resultados/Hallazgos. Se logró identificar la urgente necesidad de restaurar las relaciones entre la naturaleza y los seres humanos en torno a la vida, a partir de cambios en el relacionamiento intersubjetivo, interespecífico (humanos con otras especies) y con el ambiente. Discusión/Conclusiones/Contribuciones. A modo de conclusión, las acciones de los seres humanos en contra del equilibrio dinámico ecosistémico son perjudiciales para sí mismos y afectan a las demás especies, generando así una mayor exposición humana a las enfermedades infecciosas de tipo zoonótico, como el COVID-19.
Deep and Statistical Features Classification Model for Electroencephalography Signals
Authors: Karaduman Mucahit , Karci Ali
Published: December 2022

People strive to make sense of the complex electroencephalography (EEG) data generated by the brain. This study uses a prepared dataset to examine how easily people with alcohol use disorder (AUD) could be distinguished from healthy people. The signals from each electrode are connected to one another and are first represented as a single signal. The signal is then denoised through variation mode decomposition (VMD) during the preprocessing stage. The statistical and deep feature extraction phases are the two subsequent phases. The crucial step in the suggested strategy is to classify data using a combination of these two unique qualities. Deep and statistical feature performance was evaluated independently. Then, using the eigenvectors created by merging all of the collected features, classification was carried out using our DSFC (Deep - Statistical Features Classification) model. Although the classification accuracy rate using only statistical features was 81.2 percent and the classification accuracy rate using only deep learning was 95.71 percent, the classification accuracy rate utilizing hybrid features created using the suggested DSFC technique was 99.2%. Therefore, it can be proven that combining statistical and deep features can produce beneficial results.

Authors: Wicaksono Pandu , Philip Samuel , Alam Islam Nur , Isa Sani M.
Published: December 2022

Data in the health sector are often lacking and unbalanced. It is because collecting data takes time and many resources. One example is sleep apnea data which takes about 8–10 hours to get data and uses specialized hardware like polysomnography (PSG). This study proposes a data augmentation technique to handle unbalanced data using DCGAN and several deep learning models such as 1D-CNN, ANN, LSTM, and 1D-CNN+LSTM as a classifier for apnea detection. The DCGAN architecture used is CNN on the generator and discriminator. DCGAN will create new synthetic data by mimicking the original dataset. This experiment uses a dataset from PhysioNet, the Apnea-ECG, and the MIT-BIH PSG Database. Furthermore, the dataset is preprocessed to remove noise, and the features are extracted manually. The test scenario is to create 10% synthetic data and 50% sleep apnea data to be added to the original dataset. Then compare the performance of multiple deep learning models before and after adding data. The results indicate that augmentation with DCGAN can improve the performance of almost all models, with the highest increase of 1.78% on the 1D-CNN+LSTM model and 4.80% on the LSTM model for the Apnea-ECG and MIT-BIH datasets, respectively.

Authors: Akça Eren , Tanrıöver Ömer Özgür
Published: December 2022

Visual complexity is an important factor affecting the efficiency and functionality of user interfaces. Its impact on the user's impression and the usability is significant, especially for mobile applications with constraints such as layout size, on screen keys and small input fields. Conventional approaches for visual complexity evaluation of user interfaces are either based on user evaluations with surveys or based on pre-specified formal metrics or on heuristics. Alternatively, in this study, we have explored the effectiveness of deep learning models for visual complexity evaluation, specifically, of mobile user interfaces. We have experimented with five state of the art pre-trained deep learning models known to be effective for computer vision tasks, namely, VGG16, DenseNet121, MobileNetv2, GoogleNet and ResNet152 were trained with 3635 different mobile user interface images as login, menu, search and settings. Furthermore, in order to validate the effectiveness of this approach, a new validation dataset and survey application was developed and an evaluation study was conducted with 98 participants where 7309 comparison result were obtained from the study. It was found that the agreement rate between the results of deep learning models and the user evaluations was up to 78% and 74% on the average. The high to moderate agreement rate between the results of deep learning models and the user evaluations reveals that this approach can be useful for designers in visual complexity evaluation of mobile user interfaces.
Seedlings Supplement Device and Seedling Recognition Based on Convolution Neural Network
Authors: Zhang Yong
Published: December 2022

A fully automatic plug seedling device is designed, its structure and working principle are introduced, and a plug seedling hole identification method based on CNN is proposed to address the issue of adjacent holes in order to increase the automation and intelligence of the vegetable transplanting machine. The issue of low recognition accuracy of plug seedlings is brought on by intertwined stems and leaves. This study first grows tomato seedlings in an artificial greenhouse and then utilizes an SLR camera to take pictures of those plants. The photos are then subjected to the appropriate preprocessing, such as separating the complete hole plate image into several hole images in accordance with the hole plate standards to facilitate recognition. The CNN model is then finished being trained after receiving the processed image. Relu, which has a better ability for classification, is chosen as the activation function of the convolutional layer after the network is enlarged on the basis of LeNet-5CNN. In addition, the over-fitting issue of the model is resolved using data augmentation technology, resulting in a recognition accuracy of the test set of the model that is as high as 0.985. The automatic vegetable transplanting machine can greatly increase the automation and intelligence level of the plug seedling recognition model based on CNN, which has high recognition accuracy and generalization ability. This model also solves the main technical problems of the plug seedling device and improves the machine's ability to transplant.

Authors: Wu Jian-Da , Sun Hsing-Yueh
Published: December 2022

Biometrics used to identify people is one of the safest and most convenient identification methods. The hypoxic hemoglobin method can present a human finger vein image for driver identification through infrared ray irradiation. The finger vein image is captured system; with the finger vein image processed using contrast-limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) and the Gabor filter to obtain a clearer image. The YOLO object detection technology is used to drive identification. The proposed system can be divided into two parts. The first part is the training part, which processes images. A database generates the weight files for external testing. The second part is the testing system. When the driver's finger is placed in the designated photo area a photo will be taken. The photo will be processed and run on Raspberry Pi 4 together with the weight file to identify the driver. The experimental results show that when the database has a large amount of data, the yolov4-tiny-hy recognition rate is comparable to that of YOLOv4. The training time is greatly shortened.

Authors: Pitchiah Maniraj Subramanian , Rajamanickam Thamizhamuthu
Published: December 2022

Skin cancer is the most prevalent and deadliest kind of cancer. Melanoma is the most dangerous type of skin cancer, but it can be detected earlier and successfully treated. The dermoscopic image classification using Machine Learning (ML) approaches in identifying melanoma is increased over the last two decades. The proposed classification system involves three stages. Initially, the pre-processing employs the median filter and thresholding approach aids to remove the hairs and unwanted noise. Then, the shape components, Asymmetry, Border Irregularity, Colour and Dermoscopic structure (ABCD) rule, and Grey Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) features are utilized to extract the skin lesion region. After that, the K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Random Forest (RF), and Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifiers are employed to perform melanoma skin classification from the skin lesion. The dermoscopic skin images used in this study are obtained from the PH2 database. Finally, the SVM classifier outperformed the other classifiers in identifying melanoma skin cancer, providing 94.81% efficiency.

Authors: Uzun Mehmet Zahit , Celik Yuksel , Basaran Erdal
Published: December 2022

This study proposes a framework for defining ME expressions, in which preprocessing, feature extraction with deep learning, feature selection with an optimization algorithm, and classification methods are used. CASME-II, SMIC-HS, and SAMM, which are among the most used ME datasets in the literature, were combined to overcome the under-sampling problem caused by the datasets. In the preprocessing stage, onset, and apex frames in each video clip in datasets were detected, and optical flow images were obtained from the frames using the FarneBack method. The features of these obtained images were extracted by applying AlexNet, VGG16, MobilenetV2, EfficientNet, Squeezenet from CNN models. Then, combining the image features obtained from all CNN models. And then, the ones which are the most distinctive features were selected with the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm. The new feature set obtained was divided into classes positive, negative, and surprise using SVM. As a result, its success has been demonstrated with an accuracy rate of 0.8784 obtained in our proposed ME framework.
New Informed Non-Blind Medical Image Watermarking Based on Local Binary Pattern
Authors: Laouamer Lamri
Published: December 2022

Medical image watermarking represents a promising alternative tool regarding many security aspects such: digital rights, authenticity and integrity and content protection issues. Achieving a successful watermarking should be achieved by choosing the most significant and important patterns describing the image. This strategy should also ensure a tradeoff between the robustness of the watermark against attacks and the computational time both for watermark embedding and extracting processes. In this paper, an informed medical image watermarking scheme is proposed based on local binary pattern LBP. Local Binary Pattern (LBP) is an effective texture descriptor for images by providing the texture regions of interests concerned by watermarking. A watermark is built based on the significant information extracted from the host image by through the LBP descriptor. LBP image will be addressed to be embedded using a linear interpolation. Scenarios of geometric and non-geometric attacks have been realized on the watermarked images to evaluate the robustness of the embedded watermark in the extraction process. Furthermore, the obtained experiment results show the effectiveness of the proposed approach regarding the watermark imperceptibility and robustness.

Authors: Jorge Lucas Alexandre , Pizato Elaine Cristina Gardinal , Rodrigues Viviane
Published: December 2022

A psicoterapia é um dos serviços oferecidos pela psicologia clínica, permitindo que o paciente/cliente receba atendimento psicológico para diversas necessidades enfrentadas. Tais atendimentos majoritariamente são oferecidos pela modalidade oralizada, impedindo que pessoas surdas tenham acesso a esse tipo de tratamento de maneira eficaz. Este trabalho tem como objetivo realizar uma revisão sistemática da literatura sobre o atendimento psicoterapêutico da pessoa com surdez a partir da literatura nacional, identificando os aspectos que compõem a interação entre paciente surdo e psicoterapeuta, observando as dificuldades e realidades encontradas no contexto clínico pelo paciente e terapeuta. A metodologia utilizada baseia-se em pesquisa bibliográfica de caráter qualitativo, utilizando bases de dados para selecionar artigos nacionais referentes à temática. Seguiram-se as seguintes etapas para coleta de dados: definição de descritores; seleção por títulos e palavras-chave, atendendo os critérios de inclusão e exclusão; categorização dos estudos em participantes, intervenções, objetivos e resultados. Os resultados apresentaram fortes dificuldades vivenciadas pelos surdos em todas as fases de desenvolvimento, sendo muito comuns os desafios gerados pela ansiedade; conflitos na comunicação; baixa autoestima; conflitos internos; conflitos com familiares; crises de identidade; rejeição da identidade surda; falta de estímulo na língua de sinais; dificuldades de aprendizagem, além de identificar que há poucos estudos científicos referentes a psicologia clínica e surdez no Brasil, necessitando de profundas investigações e intervenções.

Published: December 2022

Neste artigo, debateremos as relações entre a formação da sociedade brasileira, a questão racial e a promoção de políticas públicas. Problematizamos a temática tendo como referência o processo de exploração e opressão vivenciadas pela população negra na sociedade capitalista, dentro do contexto do Imperialismo e da crise do capital. Discutimos as políticas de reparações como demandas democráticas e sua importância para combater o racismo. Apresentamos as políticas de ações afirmativas impulsionadas pela ação do movimento negro materializadas no Estado brasileiro através das políticas de cotas e da Lei 10.639/03, destacando os limites dessa ação e das demandas democráticas. Por fim, problematizamos os desafios do proletariado brasileiro, em sua diversidade, elencando elementos de um possível programa transitório de reparações que contemple as reivindicações raça e classe.

Pensar a comunicação para além da sua materialidade tecnológica, portanto como processo de conexão humana, é crucial para compreender como indivíduos relacionam-se e são transformados culturalmente, em diferentes realidades sociais. Refletir sobre eventos recentes, em muitos casos, reverberados a partir das práticas comunicacionais, passa a ser fundamental para o desenvolvimento das relações humanas e da própria noção de sociedade, logo, da existência coletiva. O presente artigo apresenta três estudos exploratórios de natureza qualitativa com o objetivo de demonstrar hipóteses sobre fenômenos contemporâneos sintomáticos nos atravessamentos entre confiança, verdade, memória, identidade cultura popular e possibilidades de projetos emancipatórios baseados na utilização do conhecimento como ferramenta de visibilidade para diversidade em nosso país.
The Impact of Asset Structure on a Company’s Financial Results Stability
Authors: Zimny Artur
Published: December 2022

The purpose of the article is to examine the impact of asset structure on the stability of financial results of companies. The article verifies two hypotheses: 1. high share of non-current assets in total assets results in high volatility of profitability over time. 2. high share of PPE (Property, Plant & Equipment) in total assets results in high volatility of profitability over time.

The methodology of the study includes a literature review and empirical research based on correlation analysis. The research covered the aggregated data of Polish non-financial enterprises employing 10 persons or more keeping accounting ledgers, data for years 2009–2020 (first dataset) and annual financial data of 115 companies from 13 WSE industry sub-sectors for years 2009–2021 (second dataset).

The results of the research. The analysis of the asset structure and the volatility of profitability in the research sample indicated industries with large and small values of these parameters. Then, the hypotheses were tested; the results for the second dataset showed that there is a positive and weak, but statistically significant (p value ≤ 0.005) correlation between non-current asset structure ratio and both, ROS and ROS adjusted ratios, and there is a weak, but negative correlation between PPE structure ratio and ROS and ROS adjusted ratios (with p value of 0.021 and 0.076, respectively). On this basis, hypothesis 1 was considered as verified positively, and hypothesis 2 was rejected. The discussion contains suppositions concerning the probable reasons of the discrepancy between the result for the hypotheses 1 and 2.

Background: This is the first study in Indian context where underutilized fish species pony fish (Leiognathus sp.) has been used for the preparation of surimi and surimi gel and its textural and spectral images were analysed. Methods: Textural profile analysis for estimating the hardness, gumminess and chewiness parameters and colour analyser for measuring the difference in whiteness among samples were used. FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) was used to estimate the percentage of proteins folded during heat denaturation process. Result: Textural parameters of CWS (Conventional Washed Surimi) gel showed ideal gel strength of 191.06 g cm, hardness of 46.48 N, gumminess of 30.75 N and chewiness of 28.70 N. Colour analysis of UM (Unwashed Mince), CWS and CWS gel showed whiteness of 38.59, 61.45 and 72.07. FTIR analysis of UM, CWS and CWS gel shows unfolding of protein structures in the wavelength of 1688.07 cm-1, 1665.34 cm-1 and 1653.20 cm-1. This study reveals the potential use of pony fish (Leiognathus sp.) as one of the favorable fish species for surimi and sausage production showing virtuous instrumental quality attributes.
