Authors: SUJALA AAKARAM  , KRISHNA PRASAD D
Published: February 2025

Objectives: The current study aimed to determine the efficacy of triple-drug combination therapy over double-drug combination therapy.
Methods: A retrospective cohort observational study was conducted on a total number of 240 patients at Medicover Hospitals. The study encompassed 240 subjects suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and parameters such as demographics, symptoms, comorbid conditions, and forced expiratory volume (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) ratio were assessed. The data were compiled and analyzed by applying unpaired t-tests and Chi-square tests using software.
Results: Male patients with 61–70 years of age were prone to suffer from COPD as compared to the other age groups. With regard to the symptoms associated with COPD, shortness of breath and cough were more remarkable in >100 and >90 patients, followed by fever symptoms. In the COPD patients with dual therapy, FEV1:FVC ratio of over 3 months, 30% (n=36) of patients had a FEV1:FVC ratio of <0.7, which increased to 90% (n=108) in the post-treatment, whereas those with a ratio >0.7 decreased from 70% (n=84) to 10% (n=12). 16.67% of patients had a FEV1:FVC ratio of <0.7, which was raised to 93.33% after treatment. This significant shift (**p<0.001) demonstrated a substantial improvement in lung function following triple-drug therapy.
Conclusion: The study demonstrated that triple-drug therapy was effective over dual-drug therapy in the management of COPD by marked improvement in lung function and, thereby reduction in exacerbation rates.

Los abordajes estrechos de la convivencia escolar suponen una comprensión problemática de los conflictos escolares, la que tiende a la acción de una disciplina punitiva. La investigación sobre disciplina punitiva sostiene hibridaciones en estos enfoques, que se mixtura con otros de tipo formativos. Pese a ello, existen escasos estudios que caractericen los abordajes formativos de los conflictos escolares. Bajo un diseño de estudio de caso con aproximación cuasi-etnográfica, se buscó caracterizar los abordajes formativos utilizados por una institución educativa que presenta bajos niveles de prácticas de disciplina punitiva. Se realizaron observaciones persistentes, análisis de documentos institucionales y entrevistas en profundidad a estudiantes, asistentes de la educación, docentes y personal directivo. Los resultados caracterizan lo formativo asociado a distintas acciones de diálogo preventivo que sitúan al estudiantado como el centro de los procesos educativos y una institución escolar que se narra en tránsito hacia una gestión de la convivencia escolar formativa en la medida en que se previenen situaciones de conflictividad escolar. Se discuten las implicancias de estos resultados para un abordaje formativo de la conflictividad escolar.

Authors: Soto-Fuentes Alejandro Andrés , Sagredo-Ortiz Sindy Marisel , Espinoza Barriga Carmen Alejandra
Published: February 2025

Actualmente, la discapacidad es un tema relevante en el área de educación. Profundizar en la visión de quienes son formadores de profesores y tienen la responsabilidad de propiciar la inclusión en la educación superior se torna importante. El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar las percepciones y actitudes que poseen los docentes de la carrera de Pedagogía en Educación Diferencial hacia las personas con discapacidad en una universidad privada de Chile. Se aplicó una entrevista semiestructurada a 12 académicos y se realizó un análisis de contenido del discurso con apoyo del software cualitativo Nvivo 12. Los resultados principales indican que la percepción y actitud de los docentes hacia la discapacidad es positiva y coinciden en el respeto de los derechos fundamentales de los sujetos como un ciudadano típico, comprenden que su desempeño no está limitado por su discapacidad y asocian los apoyos a enfoques ecológicos funcionales. Por tanto, los formadores de profesores podrían estar generando un efecto positivo en los futuros docentes. Este estudio contribuye a la profundización de la visión del profesorado de educación superior desde una mirada inclusiva.
Ecosistemas Digitales y Autoeficacia en Estudiantes de Psicología: Un Análisis Cualitativo
Authors: Negrete-Rodríguez Oscar Iván , Saucedo-Ramos Claudia Lucy
Published: February 2025

In this chapter, the aim is to analyze the perceived self-efficacy of university students regarding the use of ICT for their academic performance. The conceptual reference taken was the category of self-efficacy in its achievement execution dimension developed by Albert Bandura. These refer to individuals’ beliefs about their mastery experiences, skills, and competencies related to a task. The research was conducted through semi-structured online interviews with seven psychology students in a distance learning modality. We found that the achievement executions they reported regarding their educational activities were dynamic, contextual, relational, changing over time, and allowed them to set goals in the face of challenges that arose. We conclude that being a distance student requires mastery of certain ICTs and a self-efficacy that supports their skills of autonomy and school persistence.

Published: February 2025

The work is divided into two parts that reflect the diversity and complexity of the issues related to education in the digital age. In Section I, "Learning and Technology," the chapters analyze crucial issues, from whether the current approach to education in psychology meets the digital needs and challenges of the 21st century to the evaluation in E-Learning systems of self-managed learning in virtual environments. Perceptions of self-efficacy and interaction in digital ecosystems are also explored. These topics are not only relevant but also essential for understanding how technologies are shaping current and future educational processes. The second section, "Social Issues in the Digital Age of Education," delves into socially significant issues in the educational field characteristic of the digital era. It investigates cyberbullying and related factors in upper secondary education students; examines risk and protective factors in school cyberbullying, as well as the promotion of socio-emotional skills through virtual reality. These studies address not only the technical and pedagogical challenges but also the human and social aspects that are critical for the well-being of students in digital environments.
Sundhedsprofessioner i forandring?
Authors: Kryger Pedersen Inge
Published: February 2025

På danske hospitaler blev forebyggelsesprogrammet KRAM-screening indført fra 2008. Programmet omfatter sundhedsprofessionelles indsamling af oplysninger om patienters vaner vedrørende kost, rygning, alkohol og motion. Men hvilke sundhedsprofessionelle udfører dette arbejde på i forvejen travle hospitaler? Artiklen vil bidrage med ny viden om, hvordan professionsgrænser og opgaveområder forsøges udviklet, beskyttet og legitimeret ved sundhedsprofessionelles brug af arbejdspladsartefakter. Den empiriske analyse bygger på, hvad der her betegnes som intervaletnografisk materiale.Med et professionssociologisk fokus på, hvordan et professionelt opgaveområde kan styrkes med arbejdspladsartefakter som grænseobjekter, vil artiklen demonstrere konfliktdynamikker i professionelle aktørers brug af KRAMscreeningsprogrammeti koordineringsarbejde og professionskampe. I konklusion og perspektivering samles op på, hvordan artiklen med de analytiskegreb om forebyggelsesprogrammet kan indikere nye opgavetyper, der vokser frem som en (proto)jurisdiktion – måske også for andre og nye professioner?

Published: February 2025

A two-stage experiment was conducted in order to study the effect of a combined
premix on blood morphological parameters. At the first stage, 20 healthy dairy cows were selected
and divided into two groups: control and experimental, 10 animals in each. The control group of animals was fed with a standard diet adopted at the livestock complex, the experimental group – with a
diet with the addition of a combined premix, at a dose of 300 mg/kg. At the second stage, 20 lactating
dairy cows with subclinical mastitis were selected and divided into two groups: the first experimental and second experimental groups, 10 animals in each. The first experimental group was subjected
to the generally accepted treatment regimen for inflammation of the mammary glands, while the
second experimental group additionally received a combined premix. The results of hematological
studies in animals were recorded on days 1; 30 and 60, in order to determine the level of the most significant blood elements. The results of the study show that at the first stage of research the combined
premix affects the level of leukocytes, lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophils and other immune cells
in the blood of healthy cows, but does not have a significant effect on the levels of red blood cells,
hemoglobin, platelets, compared with the control group. At the second stage of research, in animals
with subclinical mastitis, the combined premix reduces the number of red blood cells, hemoglobin
and platelets, as well as the number of neutrophils and leukocytes. Thus, the combined premix has a
pronounced effect on clinical blood parameters in dairy cattle.
Collabographies: Tracing shared processes between performer and composer
Authors: Petra Valtellina
Published: February 2025

This research aims to address the question of how performer-composer collaborations can effectively generate a jointly composed flute piece. By examining two collaborative processes undertaken over the past year with different composers, this research seeks to identify factors that facilitated successful collaborations and those that posed challenges. Through comparative analysis, the goal is to identify strategies and approaches that could inform and improve future collaborations of this nature. This study ponders the contrast in the background of the two composers involved and the different experiments in role balance. As the performer, I serve as the common thread between these collaborations; variations in the outcomes result from interpersonal dynamics and the composers' differing levels of familiarity with the flute. The methodology employed aligns with the principles of Action Research, with iterative cycles of feedback, reflection, and adjustments during the collaborations, prioritising the process over the final product. 
Outcomes of this investigation include that complementary skills, clear expectations, transparent and unfiltered communication, external deadlines, defined final goals, and narrower guidelines might enhance collaborative engagement, improving satisfaction and musical products. 
Following the introduction, which addresses the motivations underlying this study, Chapters 1 and 2 will contextualise the topic of collaboration through a literature review and present the chosen methodology. Chapter 3 will delve into a comprehensive overview of the two collaborations, while Chapter 4 will propose a comparative analysis of these processes and report the limitations of this study. Conclusions will follow.

Induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1 and IL-6) and lung inflammation by COVID-19: anti-inflammatory strategies.
Authors: Conti Pio
Published: February 2025

COVID-19 (coronavirus disease-19) involves humans as well as animals and may cause serious damage to the respiratory tract including the lung. This pathogenic virus has been identified in swabs performed on the throat and nose of patients who suffer from or are suspected of the disease. When COVID-19 infect the upper and lower respiratory tract it can cause mild or highly acute respiratory syndrome with consequent release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-1b and IL-6. The binding of COVID-19 to the Toll Like Receptor (TLR) causes the release of pro-IL-1b which is cleaved by caspase-1, followed by inflammasome activation and production of active mature IL-1b which is a mediator of lung inflammation, fever and fibrosis. Suppression of pro-inflammatory IL-1 family members and IL-6 have been shown to have a therapeutic effect in many inflammatory diseases, including viral infections. Cytokine IL-37 has the ability to suppress innate and acquired immune response and also has the capacity to inhibit inflammation by acting on IL-18Ra receptor. IL-37 performs its immunosuppressive activity by acting on mTOR and increasing the adenosine monophosphate (AMP) kinase. This cytokine inhibits class II histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules and inflammation in inflammatory diseases by suppressing MyD88 and subsequently IL-1β, IL-6, TNF and CCL2. The suppression of IL-1b by IL-37 in inflammatory state induced by COVID-19 can have a new therapeutic effect previously unknown. Another inhibitory cytokine is IL-38, the newest cytokine of the IL-1 family members, produced by several immune cells including B cells and macrophages. IL-38 is also a suppressor cytokine which inhibits IL-1b and other pro-inflammatory IL-family members. IL-38 is a potential therapeutic cytokine which inhibits inflammation in viral infections including that caused by COVID-19, providing a new relevant strategy.

Studi Fenomenologi Eksistensial Sukarelawan Sosial di Bali dalam Tinjauan Eksistensialisme Jean Paul Sartre
Authors: Sasmitha Ni Wayan Ditha
Published: February 2025

Proses pencarian makna pada diri individu adalah perjalanan mendalam dan sering kali kompleks melibatkan berbagai aspek psikologis, emosional, dan filosofis. Hal ini termasuk ketika seseorang memaknai dirinya menjadi seorang sukarelawan. Penelitian ini menelusuri pengalaman serta pemaknaan hidup subjek sukarelawan sosial di Bali dengan tinjauan eksistensialisme Jean Paul Sartre. Data penelitian ini diperoleh melalui proses wawancara mendalam bersama tiga orang informan yang ditentukan berdasarkan teknik snowball sampling. Hasil wawancara kemudian dianalisis dengan menggunakan tinjauan eksistensialisme Jean Paul Sartre. Hasil dari keseluruhan pengkajian ini terkait dalil "eksistensi mendahului esensi", sukarelawan dalam penelitian ini memiliki kemampuan memaknai dirinya melalui pengalaman yang diperoleh selama hidup mengada menjadi seorang sukarelawan. Kemudian terkait pengalaman etre en soi (ditindak dunia), sukarelawan memiliki kapasitas untuk memanipulasi beragam faktisitas demi menyelamatkan eksistensinya. Bentuk manipulasi yang dilakukan adalah berupa pengabaian yang terjadi saat sukarelawan mengalami pendiskreditan oleh lingkungan sosial sekitarnya. Pengalaman etre en soi yang dialami sukarelawan tidak menyebabkan sukarelawan merasa berada pada 'keyakinan yang salah' (mauvaise foi). Sukarelawan dalam penelitian ini dapat dikatakan sebagai para eksistensialis, yang memiliki dimensi otentitas dalam dirinya. Sukarelawan dalam penelitian ini tidak menganggap kehidupannya ketika menjalankan aktivitas sosialnya sebagai sebuah keterpaksaan, melainkan sebagai bentuk kerelaan untuk memenuhi naluri kebebasannya.

Published: February 2025

One of the efforts to construct local values ​​as a basis for instilling ethno-pedagogical characters is to interpret the character of Mpu Kuturan which is manifested through the construction of the Pura Agung Mpu Kuturan at the Sekolah Tinggi Agama Hindu Mpu Kuturan Singaraja, Bali. This research emphasizes philological studies. The researcher reads various manuscripts about the remains of Mpu Kuturan's knowledge as a cultural heritage in Bali. The context is important to examine because it is useful for providing a textual description, especially the reconstruction of local values ​​to be used as a reference for pedagogical values. The stages of the Pura Agung Mpu Kuturan ceremony contain academic values ​​based on ethnopedagogy. First, Melasti Segara and Mapekelem-Mapapada Wewalungan Tawur, meaning the construction of eco-pedagogical values ​​and critical learning media, because they are the personification of the universe. Second, Nyenuk, Ngamargiang Kekundang, Ngaturang Guru lan Bendu Piduka/Ngrsi Bojana, meaning the construction-systematization of the thinking process. The symbolization of colors and the placement of gods in various directions symbolically signify the thinking ability of a learner or academic must be adjusted to the situation and conditions or social gradation of each diverse society. Third, Nangun Ayu-Makebat Daun, as a constructive symbol of metacognitive thinking - open. Makebat daun means opening up a new life or hope. If interpreted, the procession of the ceremonies above is the result of human creativity (as homo-esparan) to visualize or personify the form and presence of God which is abstract in nature into a concrete form.

A critical exploration of the development, form and effects of corporate digital surveillance on its users and consumers
Authors:   , Hanratty Peter G.
Published: February 2025

This thesis addresses the development, form and effects of corporate digital surveillance on consumers and users. As such, it traces the historical development of computers as surveillance machines before providing a methodological framework. In embracing a media ecology approach, the framework draws from a range of philosophical perspectives representing a range of academic disciplines. For example, starting in phenomenological bases of understanding humans and their relationships with technology, it moves to include theories from Sociology, Behavioural Psychology, Politics and Media and Communications Studies to arrive at a position from which the subsequent chapters can draw. The chapters are arranged to relate to the various ‘environments’ of surveillance, moving from the micro level of the self before ultimately arriving at the global level.

La morfogénesis de los conceptos existenciales entre la indimensión de la lógica divina y la dimensión de la lógica humana: Estudio comparativo de la exégesis de la “Sura de Al-Kahf” y la hermenéutica del subconsciente novelesco en “La tregua”.
Authors: Gourani Mounjid Annour
Published: February 2025

El análisis comparativo que ambicionamos llevar a cabo, se considera una encrucijada de dos Culturas diferentes, reproducidas, en el contexto inter-analítico, por el Texto Sagrado islámico y el texto literario iberoamericano; en particular, uruguayo. Intentamos, a raíz de la elucubración en cuestión, arrojar luz en la fenomenología de interacción y reflexión del ser humano acorde con una lógica instintiva y convencional, condicionada por la sensibilidad y la limitación de su constitución psicológica y biológica; mientras su Creador rige sus peripecias vitales a base de emblemáticas estaciones que determinan su itinerario existencial, en un marco cercado, de antelación, por el Determinismo. En la órbita del Texto Sagrado, los tres sucesos capitales que retratan los versículos (del 65 al 82) de la “Sura de Al-Kahf”, atestiguan la incongruencia total entre la dimensión de la lógica humana, representada por el desconcierto de Moisés, y la indimensión de la lógica divina cuya causalidad es descifrada por Señor Al-Khadir; testificación que se confirma, en el área del texto literario, mediante el fallo de la lógica humana encarnada por el protagonista de “La tregua”: Martín Santomé, ante la predeterminación de la lógica divina, transliterada por Mario Benedetti.

O setor de cooperativismo tem forte representatividade na economia, sendo no Brasil mais de 15 milhões de cooperados, reunidos em 5.314 cooperativas e gerando 427.576 empregos diretos (OCB, dez/2019). Dentro deste contexto, torna-se relevante aprofundar o tema de desenvolvimento de lideranças e neste sentido o coaching tem sido visto como ferramenta importante para expandir conhecimentos e competências dos gestores. O presente estudo realizou a análise do processo de desenvolvimento de lideranças, baseado nos atributos de líder coach, na Cooperativa Agropecuária RS, que possui 5.000 famílias associadas e 2.200 funcionários. O método utilizado foi de uma pesquisa exploratória quali-quanti, partindo da análise junto a área de RH sobre a percepção da cooperativa em relação ao processo interno de desenvolvimento de lideranças e aderência aos conceitos de coaching com aplicação de uma survey para 39 gerentes e supervisores respondentes na plataforma survey monkey, para perguntas avaliativas fundamentadas nos atributos de liderança preconizados pela International Coach Federation (ICF, 2017). Ao final o estudo apresentou os resultados que demonstraram um bom estágio de adesão aos processos de coaching pelas lideranças da cooperativa e oportunidade de melhoria na vinculação de metas e resultados ao processo de coaching.

O Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (TCC), item obrigatório na formação acadêmica de vários estudantes é, muitas vezes, visto como elemento dificultador para conclusão do curso. Isso é consequência de diversos fatores, sejam eles de origem técnica quanto de ordem pessoal. Assim, o presente artigo, objetiva analisar os principais obstáculos, na visão aluno, enfrentados para a concretização do TCC. A avaliação foi realizada com estudantes de cursos superiores de duas instituições, pública e privada, localizadas na região metropolitana de Natal/RN, com um percentual de respondentes de 83,33% do público-alvo pretendido. Como método escolhido, aplicou-se um questionário com três parâmetros comparativos:  fatores técnicos, fatores emocionais e fatores estruturais. A partir das respostas, foi aplicada a técnica estatística de análise cluster. É perceptível identificar nos resultados, o quanto fatores como renda, contato prévio com pesquisa científica e leitura acadêmica influenciam na elaboração do TCC, sendo causas relevantes a adoção de medidas educacionais a serem estudadas.
The importance of the voice in Alessandro Baricco's novels «Silk» and «Sea-Ocean»
Authors: Kuchina Natalia
Published: February 2025

The article dedicated to the importance of the human voice and its opposition to silence, the author's attitude through the prism of the sound of the voices in Alessandro Baricco's novels. The subject is the literary techniques which Alessandro Baricco adds to express the sound in the written text. The object of the research is the original Italian texts "Silk" and "Sea - Ocean", published by the Rizzolli, which are compared with the Russian translation by Gennady Kiselyov. By analyzing original texts is possible to show the author's intention to make voices of the heroes not only the defining features of the character, but also an independent unit of a literary work. The article identifies the literary techniques which help Baricco to transmit a sound to a written text, shows the innovation of Alessandro Baricco's poetics, the syncretism of his literary works with music and theater, cinema and television. The author uses a textual analysis, compares the semantics and pragmatics of the original texts in Italian with their reflection in the translation into Russian. Semantic analysis reveals unique stylistic features and interrelationships with various types of art. The biographical method helps to understand the writer's desire to convey the sound of his voice in the written text most accurately. In conclusion of article the author stresses the importance of the opposition of speaker and listener, sound and silence. The author gives special philosophical meanings to the human voice. The sound of the voice in the written text is conveyed using a literary trope. The scientific novelty of the work is due to the intention to examine the little-studied aspects of Baricco's literary works related to his activities in the world of art and culture, going beyond literature. Purpose of the article's is to increase interest in the Baricco's works in various fields of art and culture, to identify the uniqueness of his novels.
Priority moral and ethical qualities in Russia and China: a comparative analysis based on empirical research
Authors: Wan Guangfu , Glebova Polina Alexandrovna
Published: February 2025

The subject of the study is the peculiarities of perception and prioritization of moral and ethical values among Russians and Chinese based on an associative experiment, the object of the study is moral and ethical values in Russia and China. The authors consider in detail such aspects as the key differences in the moral and ethical values of the two cultures, the influence of historical and philosophical traditions on the formation of ethical norms. Special attention is paid to such phenomena as globalization, technological progress, the spread of individualistic values, as well as subsequent changes in moral and ethical guidelines in both China and Russia. The authors note the importance of preserving traditional values and passing them on to the next generations. The directed associative experiment conducted by the authors helps to fully consider the object and subject of the study, which helps to identify the most significant moral and ethical categories in the minds of Russians and Chinese. The research methodology is determined by the set goal and is complex in nature: general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, a descriptive method with methods of observation and generalization, a comparative method and a method of socio-cultural analysis were used, and a linguistic associative experiment was conducted. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the cross-cultural comparison of associative ideas about morality, which makes it possible to identify social and historical factors influencing the formation of morality and ethics in the two countries. The conducted associative testing revealed key differences and similarities in the perception of the main moral and ethical categories by Chinese and Russian societies. Using the results and statistics of the experiment, the authors came to the conclusion about the profound influence of Confucianism and collectivist culture on the worldview of the Chinese, as well as on the connection of Christianity, Russian art and the hierarchy in society established in the earlier period of Russian history with modern value orientations of Russians. At the moment, the number of scientific papers examining the difference between Chinese and Russian mentalities using an integrated and multifaceted approach using practical methods seems to be very limited. The results obtained can be useful for further research in the field of intercultural communication and international relations.
Distributed Sand-Grain Roughness Effects on Blunt-Body Hypersonic Transition and Heating
Authors: Hollis Brian R.
Published: February 2025

An experimental investigation of distributed sand-grain surface roughness effects on boundary-layer transition and convective heating has been performed. Two representative entry vehicle geometries, a spherical-cap aeroshell and a sphere-cone aeroshell, were considered. Multiple cast ceramic wind tunnel models of each geometry were fabricated with various roughness heights to simulate an ablated thermal protection system. Wind tunnel testing was performed at Mach 6 over a range of Reynolds numbers sufficient to produce laminar, transitional, and turbulent flow. Aeroheating and boundary-layer transition onset data were obtained using global phosphor thermography. The experimental heating data are presented herein, as are comparisons to laminar and turbulent smooth-wall heat transfer distributions from computational flowfield simulations.
Modeling Torsional Stiffness and Damping of Liquid Slosh in Spacecraft Diaphragm Tanks
Authors: Gao Tengjie , Gutierrez Hector M. , Kirk Daniel R.
Published: February 2025

This study presents a pendulum-based empirical model of liquid slosh in spacecraft diaphragm tanks. Diaphragm torsional stiffness and effective damping are predicted within a range of lateral excitation frequency typical of launch or on-orbit operations. A pendulum-analog model with two primary slosh modes is extracted from diaphragm tank slosh data corresponding to steady-state triaxial force measurements at the support points of the tank under sinusoidal excitation. The approach leads to repeatable and accurate determination of pendulum model parameters. A gradient-based algorithm and a procedure for setting initial conditions for optimal parameter estimation are proposed to predict the liquid slosh forces and torques acting on the tank as frequency response functions of apparent mass and apparent mass moment. The pendulum models were assessed by comparing model-predicted force/torques with measurements, showing good agreement (1–5% prediction error in the time domain) under most test conditions (fill level, excitation amplitude, and frequency). An empirical model of the stiffness and damping is also proposed for the tested range of operational conditions. Because of the nonlinear nature of liquid slosh behavior in a diaphragm tank, both the stiffness and damping are local values for a given set of test conditions.
