Giuliana Genta – L’eredità del Quartiere Tuscolano: Casa Re e Casa Gentile
Authors: Gracola Federico
Published: February 2024

La riflessione sull’edilizia mediterranea ad un solo piano, presentata da Adalberto Libera in un saggio pubblicato nel 1952 sulla rivista «Architetti», costituisce la base teorica per il progetto del Quartiere Tuscolano III, l’Unità di Abitazione Orizzontale, aprendo un «campo di studi di estremo interesse [...] che si presenta alla nostra attenzione con la sua vitalità e i suoi problemi di importanza nazionale». Chi prosegue e sperimenta questo ambito è Giuliana Genta, collaboratrice di Libera negli anni del secondo dopoguerra, nei progetti di residenze ‘in superficie’.

The reflection on single-storey Mediterranean housing, presented by Adalberto Libera in an essay published in 1952 in the magazine Architetti, constitutes the theoretical basis for the project of the Quartiere Tuscolano III, the Horizontal Housing Unit, opening a “field of studies of great interest [...] that presents itself to our attention with its vitality and its issues of national importance”. Who continues to experiment in this field is Giuliana Genta, a collaborator of Libera in the years after World War II, in the projects for ‘surface’ residences.
João Luís Carrilho da Graça. Museo Convento de Jesus, Setubal, Portogallo
Authors: Basili Giulio
Published: February 2024

Nel progetto di riconversione in museo della città del Convento de Jesus a Setúbal, João Luís Carrilho da Graça mette in luce la qualità del manufatto esistente, rilevando le misure del costruito e ‘sospendendo’ le nuove strutture a protezione di quelle antiche senza soluzione di continuità tra il tempo passato e il tempo presente.

In the project for the recovery and conversion of the Convento de Jesus into the city museum in Setúbal, João Luís Carrilho da Graça highlights the qualities of the existing building, surveying the measurements of the built and 'suspending' the new structures in such a way as to protect the ancient ones and maintain a continuity between the past and the present.
Studio Zermani Associati. Nuova uscita del Museo delle Cappelle Medicee, Firenze
Authors: Volpe Andrea
Published: February 2024

Il progetto di Paolo Zermani per la nuova uscita del Museo delle Cappelle Medicee in San Lorenzo è un brano di eloquente silenzio che risolve con la sua raffinata semplicità il difficile tema fissato dal bando di concorso. La figura di una tomba aperta è un omaggio ai sepolcri medicei ma anche una macchina teatrale che offre un inedito colpo d’occhio sull’abside della basilica trasfigurando l’uscita dal nuovo bookshop ipogeo in un’esperienza sacra. Un disegno di Michelangelo per gli affreschi della Sagrestia Nuova, conservato nelle collezioni della Famiglia Reale inglese, sembra del resto confermare la necessità di quest’opera che sembra essere da sempre appartenuta a quel luogo.

Paolo Zermani’s project for the new exit of the Medici Chapels Museum in San Lorenzo is a piece of eloquent silence that resolves with refined simplicity the difficult task set by the competition announcement. The representation of an open tomb is an homage to the Medici sepulchres but also a theatrical device that offers a novel view of the basilica’s apse, transforming the exit from the new underground bookshop into a sacred experience. A sketch by Michelangelo for the frescoes of the New Sacristy, kept in the British Royal Family Collection, seems, moreover, to confirm the need for this work that appears to have always belonged to this place.
Neri&Hu Design and Research Office. The House of Remembrance, Singapore
Authors: Pivetta Michelangelo
Published: February 2024

L’osservazione delle opere degli architetti orientali non può che prescindere da un cambio di registro nella valutazione dei diversi, spesso opposti a quelli occidentali, apparati culturali ai quali fanno riferimento. Abitare e memoria, paradigmi universali dell’arte e architettura, trovano un’efficace soluzione nell’assemblaggio compositivo della House of Remembrance, mantenendo, in più, l’attenzione ad alcune radici tradizionali dell’architettura d’oriente come la straordinaria sensibilità nel governo delle tensioni umane.

The observation of works by Eastern architects inevitably involves a shift in the evaluation of the cultural apparatuses they refer to, which are often in contrast to those of the West. Dwelling and memory, universal paradigms of both art and architecture, find an effective solution in the way the House of Remembrance is composed and assembled, while also retaining the attention on certain traditional roots of Oriental architecture, such as the extraordinary sensitivity in handling human tensions.
Hans Döllgast. Ricostruzione della Alte Pinakothek, Monaco, Germania
Authors: Acocella Antonio
Published: February 2024

L’Alte Pinakothek conferma l’idea dell’aspetto differito e collettivo delle opere d’architettura, mostrando come la loro vita non sia mai frutto di un soggetto e di un tempo univoci. La sua esemplarità risiede, in primis, nel modo in cui tali temporalità differite e autorialità molteplici siano riuscite  a ‘mantenere in vita’ l’edificio nel segno della continuità dei tratti fondativi del progetto.

The Alte Pinakothek confirms the idea of the deferred and collective aspect of architectural works, and shows how their existence is never the result of a single subject and a specific time. Its exemplary nature lies, first and foremost, in the way in which such deferred temporalities and multiple authorships have succeeded in “keeping the building alive”, under the sign of the continuity of the founding features of the project.
Jørgen Bo & Vilhelm Wohlert. Louisiana Museum, Hamlebæk, Danimarca
Authors: Romagnoli Emiliano
Published: February 2024

Il progetto del Louisiana Museum ad Hamlebæk, Danimarca,  è del 1956 ad opera degli architetti V. Wohlert e J. Bo. Da quel momento diverse opere di sistemazione e ampliamento sono intervenute di cui l’ultima realizzata nel 2019. In questo tempo la struttura si è venuta ramificando nel parco che la circonda senza perdere il suo carattere, come se, fin da principio, ammettesse la possibilità di una crescita. Un’esperienza americana e un viaggio in Italia sembrano avere avuto particolari riflessi nel pensiero dei due architetti che attraverso il filtro della contemporaneità pervengono ad una diversa consapevolezza della cultura architettonica danese. E’ anche su questo filo teso tra tradizione e modernità che nel Louisiana Museum il tempo appare sospeso.

The Louisiana Museum in Hamlebæk, Denmark, was designed in 1956 by architects V. Wohlert and J. Bo. Since that time several renovations and extensions have been undertaken, the latest of which in 2019. In time, the structure has branched out into the park that surrounds it without losing its character, as if admitting the possibility of growth from the very beginning. An American experience and a trip to Italy seem to have had particular repercussions in the thinking of the two architects who, through the filter of the contemporary, arrived at a different awareness of Danish architectural culture. It is also on this fine line between tradition and modernity that time seems to be suspended in the Louisiana Museum.
Louis Kahn. Four Freedoms Park, New York, USA
Authors: Bartocci Gabriele
Published: February 2024

Unico tra i progetti di Louis Kahn ad essere stato costruito postumo, 38 anni dopo la sua scomparsa, il parco memoriale dedicato al trentaduesimo presidente americano Franklin Roosevelt, ricavato sulla punta meridionale di Roosevelt Island a New York, rappresenta un esercizio di adesione formale e tipologica alla topografia del sito di progetto dove silenzio ed economia dei mezzi espressivi del fare architettonico costituiscono gli elementi del comporre.

The memorial park dedicated to the 32nd U.S. president Franklin D. Roosevelt, set on the southern tip of Roosevelt Island in New York City, is the only project by Louis Kahn to have been built posthumously, 38 years after his death. It represents an exercise in formal and typological adherence to the topography of the site, where silence and economy of expressive means in terms of the architectural practice constitute the elements of the compositional process.
Archeologia del futuro: il teatro Andromeda di Lorenzo Reina
Authors: De Rosa Agostino , Bortot Alessio
Published: February 2024

Situato nel cuore dei monti Sicani, il teatro Andromeda è un’opera al contempo remota e profondamente connessa rispetto al meraviglioso paesaggio che la ospita. Lorenzo Reina, il pastore di Santo Stefano di Quisquina (AG) che, sull’urgenza di una ispirazione intima e irrefrenabile, ha deciso di far emergere dalle rocce di una collina questo archetipo tettonico che lì riposava forse da secoli, forse da prima che il genere umano popolasse quei luoghi. L’opera intreccia un dialogo serrato tra paesaggio terrestre e quello celeste.

Located in the heart of the Sicani Mountains, the Andromeda Theatre is at once remote and deeply connected to the beautiful landscape that hosts it. Lorenzo Reina is a shepherd from Santo Stefano di Quisquina (in the Province of Agrigento) who, urged by an intimate and irrepressible inspiration, decided to draw out from the rocks on a hillside this tectonic archetype which had been resting there perhaps for centuries, maybe even before mankind appeared in this area. The monument engages a tightly-knit dialogue between earthly and celestial landscapes.
La sostanza del padre nel quotidiano convivere la relazione con il figlio disabile
Authors: Cirrincione Andrea , Facci Carolina , Ciucci Enrica
Published: February 2024

In an uncertain climate of value and family mutations, the crisis of the paternal model emerges. The father is required to (re)construct a new identity, which risks being further undermined by the child’s condition of disability. The primary objective of this work is to reflect on the present crisis of the father who is confronted with his son’s disability. The narrative methodology gives fathers the opportunity to narrate the uniqueness of the relationship with their children with disabilities and to think about their own way of being fathers. The studies by Gelati and Bonsall illustrate the potential of the autobiographical approach.
Inclusive Technology-mediated School-family Communication in Contexts of Social Violence: A Proposal for Guidelines for Schools and Families in Gaza
Authors: Pacetti Elena , Soriani Alessandro
Published: February 2024

I-CAN: Independence, Capability, Autonomy, iNclusion was an international cooperation project run in 2018-2021, which involved 15 selected Gaza Strip’s schools, whose objective was to promote the full inclusion of people with disabilities. The project was articulated in two main actions: the first was the establishment of an “Holistic and Innovative Centre”, created to support educators and families in the promotion of initiatives directed at building inclusive communities; the second was a qualitative research, which explored the implications that the lockdown and the forced transition towards technology-mediated communication had on school-family relationship.

Abstract
Post-Orientalist Discourse in Lesja Ukrajinka’s Writing
Authors: Kocherga Svitlana
Published: February 2024

The article interprets Lesja Ukrajinka’s creative work through the lens of post-colonialism and post-orientalism. The conceptions of H. Dabashi, G. Spivak, T. Hundorova are involved for analyzing the vision of the East by Lesja Ukrajinka. The article focuses on phenomena of communication with the other; on a global dialogue of cultures; and on the writer’s critical response to historical conflict between East and West. The author’s pathetic apology for the East is likely a result of belonging to a colonized people that is doomed to marginalization under the pressure of the Russian Empire. This leads to the identification of Ukrainian national issues in the writer’s oriental motifs. The interpretation is based on the texts Rufin and Priscilla, Only One Word, Yakut Poem, and Ra-Meneis.

The article asserts that Lesja Ukrajinka does not put romantic pathos into the image of the East, which fully resonates with the contemporary concept of post-orientalism. She avoids exotic poetics and concentrates on the controversial position of other-image.
The Amatory Hejnał (Bugle Call). An Old Polish Genre of a Morning Love Song
Authors: Urban-Godziek Grażyna
Published: February 2024

The article presents the genre of the Polish amatory hejnał, defined in C. Hernas’ Hejnał polski. Studium z historii poezji melicznej (1961). This original genre, as well as other Polish poems which could be classified as aubade, was not included in A.T. Hatto’s collection Eos: An Enquiry into the Theme of Lovers’ Meetings and Partings at Dawn in Poetry (1965). The author of this article, focusing much of her research on medieval and early modern morning love poems, enumerates the features of amatory hejnał, showing its literary sources, in particular the scheme taken from Ovid’s Amores i 13. Although the amatory hejnał derived from a parody of M. Rej’s religious hymn (drunken, rural, or a political variation, among others), it then combined the features of aubade, serenade and Latin elegy and entered the group of European songs of lovers meeting at dawn. The main authors discussed here are the 17th-century poets, Hieronim and Zbigniew Morsztyn.
Jan Lechoń’s Face and Mask. Based on Tischner’s Experience of Truth and Identity
Authors: Urbańska Monika
Published: February 2024

The aim of the article is to discover what Jan Lechoń communicated through the mask and what role it played in his life. I consider this issue on the basis of Tischner’s experience of mask and face, closely related to the categories of truth and identity. The mask belongs to the category of phenomena, which is why I study it with phenomenological tools, taking into account the axiological perspective. The mask and the face are boundary phenomena related to the source experience, which allows us to discuss the phenomenology of the boundary.
In the work of Lechoń, the mask is a key concept related to the category of the Other. The mask phenomenon exists in a specific triangle of interdependence: mask bearer – mask – observer, which means that the effectiveness of the mask depends on the viewer. The mask, then, is to be used through the fault of the Other, it is called for by social life.
The Glagolitic Amulet from Varna in Light of Old Novgorod Parallels and Vice Versa
Authors: Gippius Aleksey
Published: February 2024

The article analyses the Glagolitic prayer on the lead amulet published by K. Popkonstantinov and H. Miklas in 2009. A new reading of the central phrase is proposed based on the parallels in Novgorod birchbark documents. In the second part of the article, the Varna amulet and artefacts of its circle are compared with the birchbark documents about magical contents. It is shown that Old Bulgarian and Old East Slavic texts share a group of motifs organized around the figure of angel Sichael as a protector against fevers. The mention of the name Sichael in the inscription – its only South Slavic attestation – does not support the conclusion according to which the cult of this angel reached Novgorod directly from Cappadocia, where it had emerged and developed.

The Dalmatian Motifs of Miroslav Krleža: Space, Culture and Conflict in the Borderlands
Authors: Czerwiński Maciej
Published: February 2024

The aim of this article is to deal with the disputable role Dalmatia played in the Croatian-Italian-Serbian borderlands, referring to the foremost Croatian and Yugoslav writer Miroslav Krleža. Although he is mostly associated with the Croatian North, i.e., historical Croatia-Slavonia, called sometimes the Panonian cultural complex, his engagement in the discourse of Dalmatia after World War Two cannot be underestimated. In the period 1950-1951 Krleža prepared two exhibitions of medieval art (one staged in Paris as L’art médiéval Yougoslave and the other in Zagreb as Zlato i srebro Zadra) and wrote two introductions to their catalogues. In them, he builds a concept of a separate “South Slavic civilisation” that “negates” the bipolarism of Roman-Byzantine competing cultural models (Slavia Romana vs. Slavia Orthodoxa, according to Picchio). Referring to the spatial approach to literature, I attempt to situate the post-war Yugoslav discourse, radically confrontational and militaristic, within historical antagonistic discourses (Croatian-Italian-Serbian).
Towards Demarcating Emigrantology
Authors: Ljuckanov Jordan
Published: February 2024

In this article I propose viewing ‘(Russian P/)philology’, ‘Russia(n) Studies’ and ‘(Russian E/)emigrantology’ as three separate and equally valid approaches to (Russian) literature and writers; I maintain that each of them is charged with its own interdisciplinary perspective.

I elaborate a new definition of ‘emigrantology’, based on reassessment of its subject matter (not exilic experiences, but experiences of ‘somewhere-else-ness’) and the range of its objects (not only emigration / exile, but a family of diverse experiences, from camp incarceration, to trips to the otherworld and translingual writing). I seek to overcome physical determinism of Russian literary studies in Russian language and, at the same time, to forestall certain ‘counter-sedentary’ bias perceivable in post-modern contemplation of exile and related phenomena in the English language. I link the literary-theoretic raison d’être of ‘emigrantology’ to the property of ‘non-in-situatedness’ that differentiates ‘literature’ from ‘wording’ (“writings”) according to the literary ontology of S. Averincev.

I define the subject matter of ‘emigrantology’, as ‘unselfliness’, ‘unplaceliness’ and ‘somewhere-else-ness’ (the former two concepts are deliberate neologisms, shaped after “untimely”). I conceptualise ‘backing’ notions as ‘place-boundness’ and ‘place-conscience’ and explain the two theoretic assumptions which give my own theorisation sense: the irreducible territoriality of exile in particular and of ‘somewhere-else-ness’ in general, and their basic property of being both psychic and bodily. I also compare ‘somewhere-else-ness’ to das Unheimliche and fictional worlds.

Prioritising the standpoint of sociology of literature and with the case of Russian literature / literature in Russia in mind, I delineate some ‘core’ types of ‘being-somewhere-else’ experiences: besides inciting to be thematised by literature and hosting individual literary creativity, these types can sustain circulation and reception of literature (the state of being an émigré; inner emigration; exile; camp incarceration; translingual writing/transnational belonging). As a counterpoint, I trace the option of diagrammic typology of ‘somewhere-else-ness’ experiences, one which brings to the fore commonalities with rites of passage.

Taking the condition of being an émigré (community) as a benchmark and distancing my model from both liberal-individualist and nationalist mythologisations of that latter condition, I analyse what I believe are the basic parameters of symbolic economy of an individual and community experiencing ‘somewhere-else-ness’.

Authors: Khairunnisah Khairunnisah
Published: February 2024

Modules can help educators achieve quality learning. The application of modules can condition learning activities to be more well planned, independent, complete, and with clear results (output). This research aims to test the feasibility of the ecological module based on the results of identifying types of sea stars (Asteroidea). The type of research used is development research. The research sample used was 15 students of the Department of Biology Education, Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering, Mandalika University of Education. Data collection techniques include validation and readability testing. The data analysis technique used is the percentage technique. Based on the research results, it was explained that the development of the ecology module was validated by a team of experts (material, language and appearance), and the student readability test obtained an average of 74.1% and the readability test was 87.8%. It was concluded that the ecological module developed was declared quite valid without needing revision and was very readable.

Una revisión de la noción de coherencia desde la perspectiva de la lógica definida como secuencia de nociones de consecuencia
Authors: Pasqualini Matías Daniel
Published: February 2024

En el contexto de ofrecer lógicas alternativas que lidien no trivialmente con paradojas semánticas y superen a la vez la objeción de incoherencia que se alza habitualmente contra ellas, el BA-Plan propone una definición de lógica en el sentido de secuencia infinita de nociones de consecuencia que especifica estándares de validez para el nivel inferencial y para los metainferenciales. El presente trabajo argumenta que si se admite la conveniencia de esta definición de lógica es posible desacoplar la noción de coherencia entre estándares de validez de la noción de uniformidad entre estándares de validez.
A Case of Gastric Contents Reflux Aspiration during General Anesthesia Induction in A Patient with Femoral Vein Atrial Septal Defect Closure
Authors: Xu Bo , Wang Rurong
Published: February 2024

Background: Aspiration of gastric contents during the induction of general anesthesia remains a significant cause of mortality and morbidity in anesthesia. We report an 18-year-old patient with a closed atrial septal defect who developed gastric content reflux aspiration and severe aspiration pneumonia despite abstaining from drinking and fasting for more than 12 hours.
Case Presentation: An 18-year-old female patient with congenital heart disease (atrial septal defect) had no previous history of gastroesophageal reflux. After fully abstaining from drinking and fasting (more than 12h), conventional anesthesia was induced, and after the patient’s spontaneous breathing and consciousness disappeared, the patient was assisted with mandibular support with both hands and mask pressure. The induction process was smooth. When preparing for intubation, a large amount of yellow fluid was found in the patient’s mouth. Intubation was performed immediately after suction. Aspiration pneumonia still occurs after the operation even if the patient is treated promptly.
Conclusions: As the incidence of perioperative pulmonary aspiration is relatively low, precautions to prevent aspiration tend to be overlooked. We should be alert to the complications of gastric contents regurgitation aspiration in patients with sufficient abstention and fasting during general anesthesia intubation.
Holistic approaches to the study of emotions and identity in language learning and use: Complex dynamic systems theory, language ecology, and post-structuralism
Authors:   University of Pécs, Hungary, Fekete Adrienn
Published: February 2024

In the field of English applied linguistics, learners and their learning processes including their psychological and emotional responses to second language acquisition (SLA) were traditionally researched in isolation following the psychometric tradition. By contrast, learners’ idiosyncratic, and often life-changing experiences that shape their identities are usually examined holistically drawing on interviews and case studies. In this paper, I discuss how I brought under the same roof these two seemingly incompatible research traditions to shed light on language learners’ multilingual and multicultural identity construction. The paper draws on the basic tenets that language and culture are inherently intertwined in SLA (Kramsch 1998) and that language learning is embodied (Damasio 1994) generating powerful emotional responses to language learning and use. In the paper, I delineate three holistic approaches to the study of emotions and identity in SLA including complex dynamic systems theory (CDST), language ecology, and post-structuralism. These approaches have three important principles in common. (1) They look at learners holistically in their complexity and entirety. (2) They perceive learner-intrinsic and contextual factors as interconnected, dynamic, and changing over time. (3) They examine learners and their learning processes in response to environmental stimuli in the form of interactions with others, learning materials, the learning environment, languages spoken by the individual, as well as the educational and sociocultural context. Following the introduction of the three theories, I present my latest research results drawing on these theoretical underpinnings. I explain how I conceptualized learners’ identity construction as a complex dynamic system of individual differences and how I detected novel patterns of psychological behavior using CDST in online education. Then, I discuss the impact of language socialization on language learning and use drawing on case studies. Finally, I present examples of powerful emotional and identity responses to language learning and use, the transformative potential of SLA, and the language learner’s imagined L2 habitus (Fekete 2018) pinpointing how learners speak, think, feel, and behave differently when they switch to different languages. / Keywords: emotions, identity, language learning, the psychology of learners, complex dynamic systems theory, language ecology, post-structuralism, holistic approaches, online education, language socialization, the learner’s imagined L2 habitus, online education
The role of everyday stressors on primary students´ language learning
Authors:   Constantine the Philosopher University in Nitra, Slovakia, Grofcikova Sona
Published: February 2024

Paper deals with the role of stress in the process of learning of pupils, younger students at primary school. It is based on literature review, and the term stress is discussed in general, as a condition in the environment as well as an internal condition leading to specific responses of an individual. It is a complex topic described from neuroscientific, biological, pedagogical and psychological point of view. The main goal is to describe stress and identify different resources of students´ stress and to refer how various levels of everyday negative pressure and anxiety can affect individual´s cognitive processes, his emotional state and well-being, as well as behaviour in school environment. In this review, following issues are examined: what stress is, how it functions and what kinds of stressors are experienced in primary students, what kinds of symptoms are associated with it, how a reduced ability to regulate negative emotions as stress and anxiety impacts foreign language learning, and what coping methods and techniques can be applied for reducing foreign language anxiety in school environment. / Keywords: emotions and stress, younger students, school environment, foreign language learning, coping methods
Literacy assessment - a case study in diagnosing and building a struggling reader’s profile
Authors:   Old Dominion University, U.S.A., Gupta Abha
Published: February 2024

Poor language and literacy abilities negatively impact students emotionally, causing low self-esteem, anxiety, and frustration. This affects their attitudes towards learning, reduces motivation, and limits opportunities. Thus, addressing early language and literacy challenges through intervention and accurate assessment is vital for not only positive emotional development but for all round academic growth. In a single-case study, the reading skills of a struggling third grade reader were assessed using tools such as QRI (Qualitative Reading Inventory) and visual-discrimination assessments to create a diagnostic profile. The study aimed to identify the student's reading level, and factors that affect language and literacy abilities. Results showed that the student's instructional reading level was at a low average range for expository texts but at a much higher level (fourth) for narrative texts. Strong word recognition skills were observed, but difficulty in comprehending expository, informational texts was evident. Recommendations include using targeted strategies to improve comprehension skills at all levels (literal, inferential, evaluative) for expository texts, while also addressing the emotional and social development of learners. / Keywords: literacy assessment, struggling reader, language and literacy, case study, elementary education

Published: February 2024

A endometriose e a infertilidade feminina estão interligadas de maneira complexa. A infertilidade é definida como a incapacidade de conceber após doze meses de relações sexuais regulares, e a endometriose, uma condição estrogênio-dependente, apresenta associação bem estabelecida com a dificuldade de engravidar. Embora a causa exata e a relação de causa e efeito permaneçam controversas, a endometriose afeta a fertilidade de várias maneiras. Lesões peritoneais, ovário endometrioma e endometriose profunda influenciam negativamente na saúde reprodutiva, podendo levar a distorções anatômicas, disfunções endócrinas e imunológica. Identificar os fatores da endometriose com o acometimento da infertilidade feminina. A coleta de dados, esta foi conduzida por meio dos bancos de dados: Base de Dados em Enfermagem (BDENF), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO), PubMed, Literatura Latino-Americana do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS). Foram consultados diversos tipos de publicações, incluindo artigos científicos, monografias e revistas, com o objetivo de obter informações relevantes sobre o tema. Os resultados revelaram uma correlação substancial entre a gravidade da endometriose e as taxas de infertilidade, destacando a importância da detecção precoce e do manejo adequado. Além disso, intervenções terapêuticas, como cirurgias laparoscópicas e tratamentos de fertilização in vitro, foram associadas a melhorias nas taxas de concepção. A discussão enfatiza a necessidade de abordagens multidisciplinares, integrando a ginecologia e a reprodução assistida, para otimizar os resultados reprodutivos em mulheres com endometriose. Em síntese, a endometriose apresenta-se como um fator significativo na ocorrência de infertilidade feminina, impactando negativamente a concepção. A compreensão dessa relação é crucial para orientar abordagens clínicas e estratégias de tratamento, visando melhorar as chances de gestação em mulheres afetadas por essa condição.
THE USE OF SIGN LANGUAGE AS A MEDIA FOR DELIVERING INFORMATION ON NATIONAL TELEVISION NEWS BROADCASTS
Authors: Fitria Tira Nur
Published: February 2024

Sign language is communication using non-verbal words which are delivered without words but with body movements/body language or facial expressions. Sign language has evolved into a practical mode of communication that forms the basis of deaf communities. It is a visual-spatial language based on positional and visual elements including the shape of digits and hands, position, orientation, limb, and gestures. This signal can be seen in a small box at the corners of television newscasts. This research reviews the use of sign language as media in delivering information (news) in TV broadcasts. This research was library research. The analysis showed that news programs broadcast by television stations become one of the providers of information. The existence of sign language facilities in news programs at this time at least minimizes gaps in the right to access information among persons with deaf disabilities. Several previous studies show that sign language is media information read by the news anchor to the TV audience (viewers) with the intermediary of a sign language interpreter. Sign language plays an active role for deaf people based on three effects of mass communication which provide direct cognitive, affective, and conative effects for deaf people. There is a relationship between the influence of the use of sign language in news programs on deaf people such as attracting the attention of deaf audiences with an easy visualization. A presentation of the news is enough to meet the information needs of the deaf person by continuing to prioritize the latest information.

Published: February 2024

This paper presents an overview of the existing literature on Construction 4.0 technologies over the past decade and their most common applications in both research and practice, aimed at achieving three objectives. First, the search for the most relevant articles on Construction 4.0, published in the scientific literature, and small firms that are developing and delivering 4.0 technologies in the construction industry allows to identify the numerous applications associated with Construction 4.0. Second, the applications found in the scientific literature and those identified in practice are classified and compared based on a framework consisting of three distinct axes. Third, the classification framework highlights current research trends and potential areas for future research, which can be summarized as follows: (i) development of hybrid digital solutions; (ii) alignment with effective collection of more structured data, smart interactive web technologies, robotics, autonomous systems, and intelligent built assets; and (iii) strengthen the capacities of artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Novel framework for BIM interoperability for sustainability and green buildings - an application for concrete structures
Authors: Muller Marina F. , Esmanioto Filipe , Huber Natan , Loures Eduardo F. R. , Canciglieri Junior Osisris , Costin Aaron
Published: February 2024

The construction industry has a great impact on the environment, therefore sustainable construction presents itself as a growing requirement of society. However, the concern with green buildings must not only be considered during the construction stage, but also during the entire life cycle of the building, integrating all stages from the design up until the demolition. Ensuring that the information permeates this lifecycle without data losses is vital. This way, efficient interoperability can support sustainability, allowing data to feed the process, and promoting the creation of more sustainable buildings. BIM (Building Information Modeling) arises as a means to support interoperability improvements in the AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) industry, by sharing models through open formats and enabling communication amongst actors. This paper presents a framework for BIM interoperability, with the goal to support knowledge organization and aid users in the decision-making processes. It will allow users to track sustainability concepts throughout the entire green BIM lifecycle and to improve processes in the construction industry toward more interoperable processes, minimizing data loss, and improving communication and efficiency. The framework is presented through process mapping techniques to analyze and integrate sustainability concepts using BIM throughout the lifecycle of a building. This framework considers not only data interoperability but also other aspects such as process, business, and service interoperability. Also, an application of the framework is described, using the case of cast-in-place concrete structures. Research findings identified the critical data points in the lifecycle of concrete structures which can influence sustainability.

ПРОФИЛАКТИКА ПАРАЗИТОЗОВ И РАЦИОНАЛЬНОЕ ИСПОЛЬЗОВАНИЕ ОХОТНИЧЬИХ ВОДОПЛАВАЮЩИХ ПТИЦ В БЕЛАРУСИ
Authors: Лях Ю.Г.
Published: February 2024

В Беларуси на 1 января 2023 года зарегистрировано более 94,6 тысяч охотников. Около половины из указанного количества членов охотничьего коллектива ежегодно оплачивают государственную пошлину, а значит, посещают охотничьи угодья.
В республике охота на водоплавающую дичь является наиболее распространенной среди членов охотничьего коллектива и наиболее результативной. Редко кто из охотников остается без трофеев. Однако добытая дичь нередко может оказаться пораженной паразитарными организмами (саркоцистами), и тушки добытой птицы утилизируются, оставляя в душе у охотника и членов его семьи неприятный осадок.
Диагноз на саркоцистоз, который проявляется поражением мышечной ткани, можно установить только при осмотре добытой птицы. В данной публикации речь идет о проблеме распространения саркоцистоза среди охотничьих видов водоплавающей птицы, обитающей в Беларуси. Исследования, проведенные в данном направлении, позволяют констатировать рост численности добытой водоплавающей дичи с признаками мышечного саркоцистоза. Недостаток сведений по данной проблеме создает условия распространения указанной инвазии в Беларуси.

The main cause of infant mortality in diarrhea is dehydration. Children under five are often brought to health services in deteriorating conditions to severe dehydration. Children under five deaths due to diarrhea are likely to be prevented if parents are able to recognize the signs of dehydration in children and take appropriate initial treatment when children have diarrhea. This study aims to determine the effect of the Dehy Pro application improves parents' behavior in preventing diarrhea dehydration in children under five.  This study is a pre-experimental study with a one-group pre-posttest design. The research begins with the development of the Dehy Pro application through 4 stages: Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate. Dehy Pro was introduced and used by 50 mothers with children under five in Karangrejo Village, Sumbersari-Jember District selected by using a purposive sampling technique. The independent variable of this study was the Dehy Pro application, meanwhile, the dependent variable of the study was the preventive behavior of diarrhea dehydration was measured in the form of knowledge, attitudes, and prevention of diarrhea dehydration. The statistical test used is the Wilcoxon Sign Rank Test <0.05. Dehy Pro significantly affected maternal behavior by increasing knowledge (p<0.000), attitude (p>0.000), and prevention of diarrhea dehydration (p<0.000).  Dehy Pro can be an effective health promotion effort in reducing the number of diarrhea dehydration in children under five through increasing knowledge and the role of parents to take steps to prevent dehydration due to diarrhea.

Self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) is important in diabetes self-management to achieve better HbA1c control and decrease complications, morbidity, and mortality in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). SMBG behavior can be influenced by various factors, one of which is sociodemographic factors. This study aimed to analyze the sociodemographic factors that influence the behavior of self-monitoring blood glucose in patients with T2DM. The cross-sectional study was conducted in ten health centers in Jember Regency with a sample size of 130 respondents using multistage random sampling. The independent variable is sociodemographic factors (age, gender, marital status, education level, income level, family type, and ethnicity), while the dependent variable is SMBG behavior. The instrument used was the Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose Questionnaire (SMBG-Q). Data were analyzed by multiple logistic regression. Most respondents had SMBG behavior in the good category (64.6%). Sociodemographic factors simultaneously had an influence on SMBG behavior (p = 0.001 < α = 0.05; R2 = 0.324). The sociodemographic factor that significantly affects SMBG behavior partially is ethnicity (p = 0.001 < α = 0.05). Meanwhile, age, gender, marital status, education level, income level, and family type did not have a significant partial effect (p = 0.095; p = 0.149; p = 0.083; p = 0.359; p = 0.507; p = 0.152 > α = 0.05). The sociodemographic factor that influences SMBG behavior is ethnicity. Therefore, efforts to improve SMBG behavior must pay attention to values and culture to improve the self-monitoring blood glucose behavior of people with T2DM.

Authors: Nurani Intan
Published: February 2024

The coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic is still a problem for many countries in the world. One of the symptoms of Covid-19 patients is respiratory disorders with clinical signs of pneumonia both mild to severe which is characterized by low levels of oxygen saturation in the body. There is currently no FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved treatment for Covid-19. In addition, an intervention that can be done to overcome the problem of ineffectiveness of breath patterns is by regulating the position in the patient. One of the supportive and rehabilitative treatments for Covid-19 patients is the prone position. This study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of prone positioning on increasing oxygen saturation in Covid-19 patients at Hermina Banyumanik Hospital. The design used in this study is quasi-experimental design and uses a nonequivalent control group design model. The number of samples in this study was 16 respondents plus 30% to 20 respondents in each group, who were moderate symptomatic Covid-19 patients from June to August 2021. This study used the wilcoxon test with the results of asymp.sig. (2-tailed) is worth 0.000 < 0.05, then it can be concluded that there is an influence of prone position on increasing oxygen saturation. Based on these results, it can be seen that there is an effectiveness of prone position in increasing oxygen saturation in Covid-19 patients at Hermina Banyumanik Hospital.
Turkey’s mediatory endeavours: Facilitating dialogue in the Russia-Ukraine conflict
Authors: Wódka Jakub
Published: February 2024

The article explores Turkey’s ambitions to assume a proactive role as a mediator in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. Positioned as a middle power striving to enhance its global standing, Turkey has dedicated itself to striking a delicate balance between Russia and Ukraine in its foreign policy. This is exemplified by Ankara’s engagement in an ambiguous cooperative rivalry with Russia while strengthening its partnership with Ukraine, including military cooperation in the Black Sea Region. Given these circumstances, Turkey sees itself as naturally inclined to act as a facilitator in brokering a ceasefire and bringing about peace between the two conflicting parties. Some successes have already been achieved, with the grain initiative being a primary example thereof.
The securitization of immigration in Poland. Social and political contexts
Authors: Tutak Grzegorz , Gondek Jan
Published: February 2024

Currently, immigration issues occupy an important place in the debate on the future of Europe. One of the central themes of this debate is the issue of security. In spite of the functioning of supranational integration structures, individual states still remain a fundamental factor in shaping migration. In many cases, the issue of immigration is subjected to the process of securitization, framing immigration as a threat. It is the speech act that is important in this respect, being a kind of securitizing tool. Since 2015, one can notice elements indicating that the process of securitization of immigration has been present in Poland, too, which, among other things, is a consequence of the change of the ruling party, the immigration crisis that has taken place in Europe, and the migration situation on Poland’s eastern border. The article presents the factors that influence the process of immigration securitization. Additionally, it includes numerous statements from Polish politicians securitizing the problem of immigrants as well as the results of social surveys on attitudes towards immigration. The analysis of the collected material leads to the conclusion that the securitisation of immigration in Poland is not a completed process and that this process concerns a geographically defined group of immigrants.
