A Case Control Study to Assess Factors Associated with HIV Mother to Child Transmission in Kenya
Authors: Jaffer Mazaher Hassan , Kingwara Leonard
Published: August 2023

Background: With the proposal that people with undetectable serum viral loads of HIV cannot transmit, there is a large gap, either due to viral discordance or transcytosis, that would be explaining the persistent 4 to 7 percent vertical transmission of HIV to infants by Kenyan mothers.
Therefore, we looked for factors that predispose mothers with HIV to transmit the disease to their children so that policy can be generated for their screening to be conducted if they fit the specified criteria that identifies them as a high-risk group.
Methods: Through access to the National Database providing HIV treatment services country wide, we looked for the presence of the available factors from MTCT cases and assessed their association with increased risk of vertical transmission. The factors assessed were mother’s blood plasma viral load (BPVL), geographic location of the mother and child (associated with specific higher and lower socioeconomic status), gender of the baby being born, time age after birth with confirmation of Mother to Child Transmission (MTCT), method of feeding chosen by mothers, age of the mothers, and the regimen of Highly Active Anti Retro Viral treatment (HAART) that the mother and child had been given.
Results: Mixed breast feeding posed a much higher risk, mothers of a younger age posed a higher risk, residents of some areas were at higher risks, of note the town of Lamu in Kenya. The at birth stat administration of Niverapin with Zidovudin (NVP+AZT) to the baby was very effective against the transmission, in comparison to any of the other interventions, and having an UD BPVL led to a six-fold reduction the risk of MTCT.
Conclusion: There are factors that are associated with a higher risk of vertical transmission from pregnant and lactating UD BPVL mothers which warrant implementation of more stringent policy in their case to achieve Elimination of MTCT(EMTCT) in Kenya. Other factors that were not in the available records and the ones found to have an impact need to be investigated with more accuracy through a prospective study.

The Preservation of the Separate Spheres Doctrine in Congress and the Federal Courts
Authors: Parikh Arjun
Published: August 2023

In Bradwell v. State, an 1872 decision upholding an Illinois law prohibiting women from practicing law, the United States Supreme Court reasoned that the law was justified because women belonged in the “domestic sphere.” While today’s sex-based workplace exclusions are not as explicit as they once were, women still face barriers to remaining in the workforce and advancing in the workplace despite the existence of major federal legislation in the areas of pregnancy discrimination and family leave policy. Congress passed the Pregnancy Discrimination Act (PDA) in 1978 to stop pregnancy discrimination, but the PDA has not come close to eliminating pregnancy discrimination. Similarly, despite Congress’s passing of the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) in 1993, ineffective family leave policy continues to hinder women’s ability to balance work and their disproportionate family caregiving obligations. After tracing the development of sex-based workplace exclusions from the 1870s through the 1970s, this Note argues that the PDA and FMLA prohibited explicit sex-based workplace exclusions while preserving other forms of sex-based workplace exclusions. This Note then analyzes proposed work-family legislation and argues that policies aimed at eliminating sex-based workplace exclusions must account for the specific experiences of women while promoting anti-stereotyping principles.
Right to Informed Consent, Right to a Doula: An Evidence-Based Solution to the Black Maternal Mortality Crisis in the United States
Authors: Landor Cecilia
Published: August 2023

This Note seeks to build on existing research about how to improve childbirth in the United States for women, particularly for Black women, given the United States’ extremely high maternal mortality rate. Through examining the history and characteristics of American and Western childbirth, it seeks to explore how the current birth framework contributes to maternal mortality. To fight this ongoing harm, I suggest increasing access to doulas— nonmedical support workers who provide “continuous support” to the birthing person.

Through this Note I seek to build on the research of others by identifying the ways medicalized birth practices fail women, particularly Black women, and possible solutions to this crisis. To that end, I examine the pathologization of childbirth, paternalism in medicine, and how the history of early gynecologists’ experimentation on enslaved Black women reverberates in the context of birth today, as both a cause of ongoing medical racism and paternalism, and as a symptom of misogyny, misogynoir, and racism.

Furthermore, this Note builds on existing work in this field by suggesting a solution that has become more popular in recent years: the use of doulas to improve labor and childbirth. I identify why doulas are such an excellent tool to combat the current issues that plague women’s pregnancy and births in this country, specifically against a backdrop of how medical paternalism, racism, and the law have hamstrung women’s ability to safely birth. Finally, I suggest a workable solution to increase the usage of doulas by women who most need support: adding doulas to the “maternity and newborn care” essential health benefit, one of ten essential health benefits private insurers are required to cover under the ACA.

Movilización social, racismo y discriminaciones en los medios de comunicación masiva colombianos durante la pandemia
Authors: Guerrero-Rivera Javier
Published: August 2023

En este artículo de investigación se analiza un caso de racismo y discriminación contra los indígenas por parte de un medio de comunicación, representante de la élite mediática y de la derecha de Colombia. El hecho acontece en el marco del paro nacional durante el primer semestre de 2021, en plena pandemia ocasionada por el Covid-19, a través de una entrevista radial al gobernador Misak con ocasión del derribamiento de la estatua del colonizador Sebastián de Belalcázar en Cali. Desde la perspectiva de los Estudios Críticos del Discurso  se demuestra que, mediante la estrategia discursiva de los binarismos y la victimización empleada por el periodista que conduce la entrevista, se violenta y discrimina a los indígenas. Se concluye que este racismo de élite los denigra como violadores de los derechos humanos de la mayoría del país, guerreristas, odiadores, incivilizados y torpes, lo cual se argumenta desde una ideología colonial, binarista y reduccionista. Con esto, se legitima y reproduce el racismo estructural que atenta contra la dignidad humana, situando a los indígenas (los otros) como cultura inferior destructora de los “valores occidentales” y “decentes” de las élites (nosotros) y, en general, los demás ciudadanos o “la gente de bien”. No obstante, el gobernador Misak construye un contradiscurso que confronta el abuso de poder del periodista y posiciona una imagen positiva del movimiento social indígena frente al reduccionismo de los binarismos del discurso de élite.
Docentes investigadores: superar los sentidos metafóricos que viajan del norte al sur global
Authors: Cuineme-Rodríguez Mónica Yasmín , Castiblanco-Roldán Andrés
Published: August 2023

La presente reflexión parte de un proceso sistemático de revisión documental tanto de textos teóricos referentes del tema, como de documentos de sistematización que en cierta medida dan cuenta de su aplicación en los escenarios educativos. Usaremos la metáfora en su potencia como un término de análisis clave en la interacción simbólica. Fruto de la filosofía y el análisis discursivo, jugaremos en clave crítica usando como mecanismo de análisis la posibilidad de tensión que reviste el sentido metafórico como parte de la retórica y por lo tanto, del discurso, en términos del filósofo del lenguaje, Paul Ricoeur (2001). Con esta herramienta reflexiva, en este texto nos ocuparemos de presentar dos tensiones: en primer lugar, ubicamos lo que representa en la condición del profesorado de educación básica y media asumirse o identificarse como docentes investigadores ante una academia cientificista y excluyente. Como segundo punto, proponemos una tensión con referencia a los discursos contra hegemónicos de las formas civilizatorias en las cuales la investigación educativa es asumida como proceso de resistencia y por lo tanto el rol del docente investigador es envuelto dentro del discurso de transformador social, en el cual, como sucede en el campo cientificista, se da una trampa discursiva que unas veces, incide en la asimilación de la producción de sentido del docente investigador en el gran curso ideológico de las pedagogías, y en otras, perdiendo su independencia como producción intelectual situada.
Estudio del discurso onomástico para la caracterización de la educación cotidiana
Authors: Díaz-Fernández Roman Camilo
Published: August 2023

Este artículo de investigación presenta los resultados de un estudio del discurso onomástico, desde la perspectiva pragmático-lingüística, y desde el método hermenéutico-interpretativo, para caracterizar la educación cotidiana. El estudio tuvo dos etapas: se aplicó una encuesta exploratoria de selección/opinión léxica a personas de una comunidad escolar. Luego, se realizó un estudio de saliencia a la onomástica de la comunidad de habla. Se encontró que los hablantes ostentan e infieren información como procesos educativos cotidianos, sincrónica y diacrónicamente. También fue posible determinar que la Educación cotidiana se distingue por su carácter textual y discursivo, en oposición a la gramaticalidad y discursividad especial de las educaciones escolar y mediática. Por lo tanto, es posible decir que la educación cotidiana es la base lingüística, cognitiva y educomunicativa de las otras dos. Se concluye con la caracterización parcial del concepto.

Mastering English Multiple Adjectives Ordering among Early versus Late Second Language Speakers: Evidence from Arabic-English Bilinguals
Authors: Albaqami Rashidah
Published: August 2023

Recent research has shown that learners demonstrate huge variability in second language (L2) end-state attainment. While some L2 learners attain native-like command, others only attain an undeveloped command and some stuck in between. It is also assumed that early learners often surpass owing to Lenneberg’s Critical Period Hypothesis (1967) that proposes that early onset often advance L2 development. This study investigates the extent to which, age is associated with mastering the target language among late versus early Arabic-English bilinguals. Specifically, this study concerns itself with the issue of how Arabic-English bilinguals typically perceive the right ordering of multiple consecutive adjectives (e.g., the small yellow bird). A considerable amount of literature has established that L2 learners encounter challenges in mastering the right sequence of adjectives, particularly when there are several adjectives modifying a single noun. To determine how Arabic-learners of English perceive English descriptive adjective orderings, this study observes whether an earlier age of first contact with English enhances the learners’ accuracy and the reaction time. To test this assumption, the intuitions of two groups of early (n=8) vs. late (n=8) Arabic-English bilinguals in the United Kingdom (i.e. Leeds) were compared for English descriptive adjective ordering preferences through a Speeded Acceptability Judgment Task (SAJT). The participants were requested to show their ordering preferences for a couple of multi-adjective strings (n=16). The findings suggested that early Arabic-English bilinguals significantly outperformed late Arabic-English bilinguals in terms of exhibiting native-like ordering preferences. The study concludes that early exposure is more likely to facilitate mastering the target system and that it generally accelerates L2 development. This study also concludes that accuracy and response time may reflect the L2 development. The study suggests a number of pedogeological implications for teaching and learning an L2.

Published: August 2023

Logical fallacy refers to errors in constructing a logically valid reasoning within an argument, and it is prevalent among students. The purpose of this study is to examine logical fallacies in solving story problems among students using a single-subject design. The study adopts a qualitative research approach with an observational method. The researcher observes how students solve story problems in a naturalistic setting. Data is collected through task-based interviews, observations, and field notes. Single-subject participants from a fourth-grade class in elementary school are selected using purposive sampling technique. Data analysis utilizes thematic analysis to identify patterns of logical fallacies exhibited by the students. The findings of the study reveal correlation/causation fallacy in geometry statement problems. Students mistakenly link their lack of understanding regarding the difference between correlation and causation. It is crucial for students to comprehend that correlation merely indicates a statistical relationship between two variables, whereas causation involves a relationship where one event causes another. It is important to utilize sufficient data and evidence to support conclusions and avoid making erroneous causal assumptions. Furthermore, students tend to make errors in logical inference from the given information. They can be influenced by external factors such as biases, which can impact students' judgment in making inappropriate assumptions. In conclusion, three types of logical fallacies were identified, namely red herring, bandwagon fallacy, and correlation/causation fallacy, in the study.

Factors Influencing the Attitudes of Local Community towards Protected Areas, Case Study on Ambatara Protected Area Forest Conservation, Northwest Ethiopia
Authors: Munaw Haile Zerfu
Published: August 2023

Protected areas (PAs) are crucial for natural resources and biodiversity conservation. However, they also hurt local communities by limiting access to farmland, forest product resources, and imposing fees. In some cases, local communities may view PAs as a risk to their livelihood or appreciate benefits of having PAs at other times. Hence, improving the positive attitudes of the local community toward PAs is important for the success of PAs preservation. This paper examined factors influencing the attitudes of the local community towards protected areas, a Case Study on Ambatara Protected Area (APA) forest Conservation, Northwest Ethiopia. Data was collected through household surveys. Econometric model were used for further analysis. The result identified influential factors and revealed that higher levels of age, education, family size, farmland size, livestock size, benefits, and awareness were all significantly associated with a more positive attitude of the local community towards PAs but having severe problems with a negative attitude. These were the key factors influencing the attitudes of the local community and should be a consideration when designing conservation initiatives and policy decisions. In general, most respondents had a positive attitude(supportive) towards PA and believed the conservation of APA is essential for them. However, they had some concerns about the management and lack of access to appropriate resources; this needs to be addressed to ensure their long-term sustainability. This study concludes that understanding the attitudes of local communities toward protected areas is essential to provide a successful conservation strategy and tangible benefits to local communities and PAs. These will help to ensure and preserve PAs for generations to come.

Objective: To analyze the news published in the Brazilian press about nursing work during the COVID-19 pandemic period, between February 2020 and August 2021.

Methods: This is a documentary, descriptive study with a qualitative approach. Elaborated from information collected on news sites, through clipping, following the stages of monitoring, collection, analysis and archiving of mentions of work in nursing made by the Brazilian media. The sample totaled 432 news. Data analysis was performed using the Thematic Content Analysis proposed by Laurence Bardin.
Results

The year 2020 stood out among the analyzed news (59.96%), whose characters involved were nursing professionals, female (36.57%), technical (38.89%) and higher (38. 43%). There was a predominance of news in the Southeast (45.83%) and Midwest (17.36%) regions. Six categories were identified for data analysis: deaths among workers (40.74%), precarious working conditions (28.94%), vaccination (8.56%), contamination of workers (8.33%), suspected of ethical infraction (8.10%) and COVID-19 cure (5.32%).

Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil brought nursing work and workers to the center of journalistic debate. Death, precarious working conditions and contamination of nursing workers, reported in the press, are related to the precariousness of nursing work in this study. It is conjectured that the journalistic debate on nursing work in the COVID-19 pandemic helped to strengthen political guidelines, such as the one that led to the enactment of Law 14,434/2022, which deals with the national wage floor for these professionals.

Published: August 2023

Objective: To map and synthesize the available scientific evidence on violence against nursing workers during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods: Scoping review prepared in accordance with recommendations of the Joanna Briggs Institute, carried out in the following databases; National Library of Medicine, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Web of Science, Excerpa Medica DataBASE, PsycINFO – APA PsycNET and Latin-American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature. Studies addressing the theme of work-related violence against nursing workers during the COVID-19 pandemic, published in Portuguese, Spanish, or English, from 2020 and available in full were included. Partial research reports, editorials, response letters and abstracts of annals were excluded. Descriptive analysis was performed.

Results: Nine out of a total of 56 publications met the selection criteria, seven with high methodological quality and two with moderate quality. The phenomenon occurred in different countries around the world, the usual victims were nursing workers working on the front line, with less training time, and it was perpetrated by different actors. Psychosocial damage to workers and risks to patients were found.

Conclusion: Nursing workers suffered a high incidence of violence during the pandemic. The consequences of this violence were harmful to health, leading to the desire to leave the profession or affecting the physical or mental health of victims. The implementation of public policies and administrative strategies to reduce violence against this population in pandemic conditions were suggested as prevention and control measures.

El presente estudio se centró en explorar la influencia de la Cultura Jambelí en diversas áreas del arte y la cultura contemporánea latinoamericana. El objetivo principal fue identificar y analizar cómo las tradiciones, técnicas y simbolismos de esta cultura ancestral se han integrado y reinterpretado en el arte moderno. Para lograrlo, se adoptó una metodología mixta que combinó la revisión bibliográfica con análisis cualitativos de obras artísticas contemporáneas. Los resultados indican que la Cultura Jambelí ha dejado una huella indeleble en áreas como la escultura, la música, la literatura, la moda y la gastronomía. Estos hallazgos concuerdan con investigaciones previas que destacan la importancia de las culturas ancestrales en la formación y evolución del arte contemporáneo. Sin embargo, se identificaron desafíos relacionados con la posible apropiación cultural y la representación inexacta de estas tradiciones. Se concluye subrayando la necesidad de abordar estos desafíos con sensibilidad y rigor, garantizando representaciones auténticas y respetuosas de la Cultura Jambelí en el arte contemporáneo.
