Authors: Sembiring Zefanya Albrena , Baihaqie Audi Gusti
Published: December 2020

AbstrakMasalah doktrinal menjadi salah satu rintangan sulit untuk diselesaikan dalam gugatan perubahan iklim. Beberapa gugatan perubahan iklim di Amerika Serikat menunjukkan permasalahan seperti hak gugat, yurisdiksi, sampai banyaknya pihak yang berpotensi untuk bertanggung jawab. Dengan banyaknya permasalahan, litigasi perubahan iklim tampak seperti sebuah pilihan yang sangat sulit untuk ditempuh. Namun, harapan itu muncul ketika perkembangan ilmu dan teori hukum beberapa tahun terakhir menjawab permasalahan dalam litigasi perubahan iklim. The Second Wave of Climate Litigation menjadi pertanda baru adanya harapan bagi permasalahan doktrinal dalam litigasi perubahan iklim. Lebih lanjut, pengaturan Hak Gugat di Indonesia menunjukkan prospek bahwa isu perubahan iklim di Peradilan Indonesia akan banyak dibicarakan di tahap substansi. Untuk itu, tulisan ini bertujuan membahas permasalahan doktrinal apa yang berpeluang terjadi jika litigasi perubahan iklim diajukan di Indonesia. Tulisan ini juga berpendapat bahwa perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan dan teori hukum dapat meringankan pembuktian litigasi perubahan iklim privat di Indonesia.Kata Kunci: Litigasi Perubahan Iklim Privat, Hak Gugat, The Second Wave of Climate Litigation. AbstractThe doctrinal issue is one of the most difficult challenges to be addressed in climate litigation. Some climate change cases in the United States show complexities such as legal standing, courts jurisdiction, and a huge amount of potential defendants. With these complexities, climate litigation seems to be a very tough way to go through. Nonetheless, science and legal theory in the last few years show a glimmer of hope concerning climate litigation. The Second Wave of Climate Litigation is a sign of hope to address the doctrinal issue in climate litigation.  In addition to that, the stipulation of legal standing in Indonesia provides the prospect that climate change will be discussed substantially in Indonesian court. Therefore, this paper discusses doctrinal issue that is likely to arise in Indonesia’s climate litigation. This paper also argues that the development of scientific evidence and legal theory can ease the improbable burden of proof in Indonesia’s private climate litigation.Keywords: Private Climate Litigation, Legal Standing, The Second Wave of Climate Change Litigation.
Penerapan Prinsip Pembangunan Berkelanjutan dan Ekonomi Berwawasan dalam Peraturan Perundang-Undangan Penggunaan Kawasan Hutan dalam Rangka PSN Pasca Pengesahan Perpres 66/2020
Authors: Doman Dalila , Doman Nadia
Published: December 2020

AbstrakPrinsip pembangunan berkelanjutan dan ekonomi berwawasan lingkungan merupakan amanat Pasal 33 ayat (4) UUD NRI 1945. Oleh karena itu, kedua amanat ini harus diterapkan dalam peraturan perundang-undangan di bawahnya termasuk di sektor kehutanan dan perekonomian nasional. Pemerintah menilai percepatan pelaksanaan Proyek Strategis Nasional (PSN) tidak hanya menumbuhkan perekonomian nasional, tetapi juga dapat menjaga kondisi ekonomi nasional selama pandemi COVID-19. Penilaian tersebut membuat pemerintah mengesahkan Perpres 66/2020 yang mengatur pendanaan pengadaan tanah dalam rangka pelaksanaan PSN, salah satunya di kawasan hutan. Peraturan pendanaan pengadaan tanah di kawasan hutan ini dikhawatirkan memberikan ancaman bagi penerapan pembangunan berkelanjutan dan ekonomi berwawasan lingkungan di sektor kehutanan. Oleh karena itu, artikel ini akan menganalisis apakah pembangunan berkelanjutan dan ekonomi berwawasan lingkungan di sektor kehutanan terancam dengan adanya peraturan ini.Kata kunci: Pembangunan berkelanjutan, ekonomi berwawasan lingkungan, Proyek Strategis Nasional, kawasan hutan.  AbstractSustainable development and environmental perspective in economics are the mandates of The Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia of 1945. Therefore, these two principles shall be implemented in the regulations beneath, including the forestry sector and national development. The government assumes that acceleration of the National Strategic Project (PSN) could not only increase the national economy growth, but also preserve it during the COVID-19 pandemic. That assumption made the government enact the Presidential Regulation No. 66 of 2020, which regulates land acquisition financing in PSN implementation, including in the forest areas. This land acquisition financing in the forest area regulation is expected to possess a threat to sustainable development and environmental perspective in economics implementation in forestry sector. Therefore, this article will analyse whether sustainable development and environmental perspective in economics are threatened with this regulation.Key words: Sustainable development, environmental economy perspective, National Strategic Project, forest area.
Pricing Effectiveness on the Russian Corporate Bond Market
Authors: Teplova Tamara , Budanova Darya
Published: December 2020

In this paper, the question of price anomaly’s existence in the ruble bond market is considered. The construction of the profitable investment (trade) strategy on the relatively best and relatively worst corporate bonds that are ranged by the historical return allows to reveal the anomaly. The testing is conducted at the total sample (303 bonds of Russian issuers) and the sub-sample (25 liquid bonds of Russian issuers). The results that include the selection of the trade strategy’s design (the analysis of more than 6 thousand combinations of historical return periods investment periods and the percentiles of the best and worst portfolios) allow to detect the reversal effect (when the profitable strategy includes investing in to former losers who have demonstrated the lowest historical return). The investments in former winners also may be profitable, but the parameters of the strategy design become crucial to reach this effect. The result above justifies the fact that Russian corporate bond market is overestimated, the bond demand is higher that the bond supply that leads to the anomaly in the dynamics of the return, when the investment in losers makes it possible to get profit.

Authors: Volodin Sergey , Kunina Ekaterina
Published: December 2020

In recent decades, financial science actively covers new segments of the financial system that have not been studied previously. One of such areas is the analysis of impact of news on pricing in particular sectors of the stock market. The paper is related to this direction and aims to reveal the influence of news on stock price performance of companies in the U. S. film industry. To reach the goal we employed the abnormal return and trade volume analysis method, as well as multiple linear regressions. Basing on the results of the calculations, we provide the estimations of the general level of return and trade volume reaction on the release of positive and negative news. The significance of the obtained results showed the possibility of their application in practical investment activity, which makes them useful for individual and corporate investors, and fund managers who consider this sector as the possible destination for funds investment. The revealed mechanisms represent a good base for further research of the film industry in different countries and similar market segments.

Information Revolutions, Economics and Economic Education
Authors: Lugachev Mihail
Published: December 2020

The concept of permanent revolution was formulated in the XIX century became a subject of constant debate in humanities circle. In contrast-scientific and technological revolutions are natural components at all steps of human development. Their permanence is commonly recognized imperative, followed by numerous confirmations with a convincing inevitability. Information and industrial revolutions taking place now in the world are such evidences. Experts declare today the fourth industrial revolution. Peter Drucker fairly predicted the fourth information revolution. It is interesting that the most important trait of both revolutions is the artificial intelligence which functions in the sphere of Big Data and Internet of Things. The application field (not the only) is the economy-its structure and content. Experts state the emergence of information capitalism and the information economy — innovations obtaining special and revolutional traits. The article is devoted to analysis of main components of the innovations and offers the ways how they should be reflected in the curriculum for modern economists and managers.
Portfolio Optimization with Risk Decomposition
Authors: Asaturov Konstantin
Published: December 2020

The paper offers the modification of traditional portfolio optimization approach to construct the portfolio with possibility to control both systematic and specific risk (portfolio with risk decomposition). Built on modern econometric tools, the author estimates and forecasts the dynamics of alphas and betas of stocks in the frame of CAPM model, which are further applied for portfolio optimization. The closing weekly prices of 10 Australian stocks and ASX Index as the market index during the period from July 2000 to July 2016 were used. Within the sample there is no evidence of arbitrage on the Australian equity market employing neutral beta portfolio. The study confirms that portfolios with risk decomposition outperform Markowitz’s one according to various performance indicators.
Risk Management in Quality Management System: Economic Content and Classification of Risks
Authors: Sviyazova Tatyana
Published: December 2020

The paper aims to study the nature of risk management in the context of quality management system. Through historical and logical methods of research, we analyze the stages of formation and development of ideas about risk and its impact to economic activity. We consider different definitions of risks that were formulated by economists and presented in international standards, and analyze key moments which characterize the economic content of risk. Based on the considered approaches we propose the author’s definition of risk. Further, attention is paid to different risk classifications, and we analyze most known approaches to risk classification. As an alternative approach, we propose an authorial classification of risks based on key processes of the organization’s quality management system. The consideration of risks by the quality management allows, on the one hand, to integrate risk management into the existing enterprise management system, on the other hand, to react more effectively to possible changes and to use a unified management mechanism. The results of the research can be applied in practice to improve the quality management system of organizations in various business areas and to form a risk management system within the organization.
Power Asymmetry in Franchising
Authors: Shakhova Margarita , Mirzoyan Ashot
Published: December 2020

The degree of asymmetry of power is one of the key factors affecting the relationship between the franchisor and the franchisee. The development of strategies for building relations should correspond to the legitimacy of the measures taken, as well as the costs of harmonization that arise in connection with a decrease in the adequacy of power relations between the subjects of relations. This article reveals the main factors that determine the legitimacy of power asymmetry, the consequences of not legitimate requirements described, as well as the costs of choosing different strategies on the part of the franchisor. The purpose of this article is to prove the inevitability of the emergence of power asymmetry in the relationship between the franchisor and the franchisee, as well as a theoretical description of the influence of asymmetry on their relationships. The results of the article can be used by franchisors in formulating strategies for building relationships with franchisees.

Automated System Testing for a Learning Management System
Authors: Krisper Lukas , Ebner Markus , Ebner Martin
Published: December 2020

Over the last years software development life-cycles have continuously been shortened and new releases are being deployed at a more and more frequent level. In order to ensure the quality of those releases, a strong shift towards automated testing at all testing levels has become noticeable throughout the software devel-opment industry. At system testing level, the scope of testing is the developed product as a whole, tested in a test environment that has a very close resemblance to the production system. Because of this system-wide scope and the many po-tential sources for failures, the implementation of automated tests at this level is challenging. Exhaustive testing is neither feasible nor maintainable, therefore proper designed test cases that cover important functionality are essential. Due to increasing laws and regulations on data protection and data privacy, proper man-agement of test data used in automated testing is as important. This paper dis-cusses how automated system tests for TeachCenter 3.0, Graz University of Technology’s learning management system, were implemented.
The Use of Digital Portfolios to Enhance English as a Foreign Language Speaking Skills in Higher Education
Authors: Cabrera-Solano Paola
Published: December 2020

The purpose of this study is to analyze the use of digital portfolios to enhance EFL (English as a Foreign Language) speaking skills in English-major under-graduate students at Universidad Tecnica Particular de Loja, in southern Ecuador. The participants were 42 students at the A2 level, according to the CEFR (Com-mon European Framework of Reference for Languages). All of them were en-rolled in an English Language Integrated Skills course. A mixed-method ap-proach was used to collect and analyze data in this study. Pre and post-questionnaires, observation sheets, and speaking rubrics were applied as instru-ments. Students used their smartphones to create digital portfolios in Google Drive, which included videos and audios about certain topics considered in the course syllabus. The speaking activities consisted of recording information in dif-ferent locations of the university campus (cafeteria, laboratories, library, chapel, sports ground), and other places of the city. The students worked individually, in pairs or groups to carry out different speaking activities during an academic term of 5 months. Personalized feedback was provided by analyzing the students’ oral performance through the speech artifacts uploaded in each portfolio. The findings show that digital portfolios were effective to enhance students’ pronunciation and fluency. It was also confirmed that the implementation of digital portfolios through Google Drive can increase students’ motivation to practice oral skills in the target language.

Published: December 2020

The development of digital technologies necessitates the formation of digital literacy and entrepreneurship skills in the modern "digital generation". The study has as the objective to identify the aspects of consumer demand for educational services in the process of testing the conceptual model of mobile learning adapted to the modern business environment in the context of digital transformations of the socio-economic life. The concept of an educational course based on the Sakai mobile learning platform with a focus on the formation of digital literacy in the business segment has been proposed in the study. The educational and applied course "Entrepreneurship in the Digital Mode" was tested within the educational programs of the State University of Management (Lyubertsy, Russia) and Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia (St. Petersburg, Russia). The experiment made it possible to identify key aspects of consumer demand for distance education based on the characteristics of the participants' perception of the advantages and effectiveness of mobile learning. Most participants confirmed their professional achievements and the fact of the implementation of personal educational goals. Mobile learning was described as an easy, comfortable, interesting, innovative and modern method of learning compared to traditional classroom lessons. In the process of mobile learning, students demonstrated an increase in personal responsibility and self-organization while practical classes and the synergy of the educational content with real business cases greatly contributed to their involvement and productivity. Until now, research has not dealt with real measurable in terms of real income from specific activities, the results of the application of mobile learning. The contribution of this study to the area under study is to establish pedagogical demands that can be satisfied with mobile learning.

Authors: Kozlov Anatoly , Tamer Olga , Bondarovskaya Larisa , Lapteva Svetlana
Published: December 2020

Mobile technology is a popular tool used to improve education efficiency. However, its impact on learners in risk assessment training is largely unknown. Projects are fraught with risks so individuals responsible for a project need to possess strong skills to handle the risky circumstances successfully.  Unfortunately, candidates for a bachelor’s degree in technical fields in Russia have an insufficient risk competence. This study offers a five-unit program to solve this problem. The study involved 128 students recruited from the Noyabrsk Institute of Oil and Gas (Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, Russia). All participants were divided in three groups: two experimental and one control. During a semester, participants in the experimental group followed the proposed program in a mobile setting, while the control group was offered the standard curriculum. The results showed an improvement in the student outcomes: the test scores of the experimental groups were higher by 24.78% and 32.75% than that of the control group. Furthermore, mobile learners were found to perform better than classroom learners: their test score was higher by 3.5% to 8%.

Authors: Vivian Fabielle Antunes , Arteche Adriane Xavier
Published: December 2020

O transtorno de personalidade borderline (TPB) tem como uma característica principal uma dificuldade de relacionamento interpessoal. O viés atencional (VA) seria a locação diferencial a estímulos considerados ameaçadores em detrimento a estímulos neutros. Saber se as pessoas com TPB tem um processamento atencional enviesado frente a expressões faciais torna-se relevante para ajudar compreender a psicopatologia e dar foco em intervenções clínicas. Objetivo: Investigar VA em faces emocionais em pessoas com TPB na tarefa dot-probe utilizando o eye tracking. Método: Participaram n=12 pessoas com funcionamento de TPB (grupo clínico) e n=13 com depressão (grupo controle-clínico) que responderam a uma tarefa de dot-probe com faces emocionais nos tempos de 250ms e 1000ms. Resultados: Houve diferenças no tempo de reação para a face emocional de raiva em 250ms, em que grupo clínico foi mais rápido para responder os ensaios do que grupo controle. Em relação ao eye tracking, houve diferenças de grupos, indicando que grupo controle olhou mais para os olhos das faces neutras do que o grupo clínico em ensaios incongruentes. Conclusões: Estudo sugere que há um VA para faces emocionais de raiva em pessoas com TPB em estágio de processamento automático. É sugerido intervenções terapêuticas específicas para TPB.
A Systematic Literature Review on the Use of Games for Attitude Change
Authors: Kleiman Fernando , Meijer Sebastiaan , Janssen Marijn
Published: December 2020

Governments are increasingly using games for civic engagement, decision making, and education. Serious gaming is a type of game that has often been advocated as a means for changing the attitude of its players and can be used for changing the attitude of civil servants. However, the relationship between games and attitude change in civil servants remains unexplored. This paper aims at identifying factors leading to attitude change of civil servants. As hardly any paper is focused on civil servants' attitude change through games, the authors broaden their research to attitude change through games in general. Out of 483 documents, 19 reference papers were analyzed in detail. Eighty-one games were found, and more than 13 different theories were identified containing 30 different influencing factors, which were found mostly to be unrelated and context-dependent. The conceptual dispersion between studies indicates that the resulting overview of factors is a first step towards creating a uniform theory. The results can help governments to design better games.
FORMAÇÃO PROFISSIONAL E EDUCAÇÃO FÍSICA: O TRIPÉ UNIVERSITÁRIO EM FOCO
Authors: LOPES PRISCILA , CARBINATTO MICHELE VIVIENE
Published: December 2020

Este artigo discute o teor das pesquisas sobre a formação profissional inicial em Educação Física/Esporte, no que tange a indissociabilidade entre ensino, pesquisa e extensão, no período entre 2000 e 2017, nos artigos publicados em periódicos nacionais da referida área (Qualis-Capes A1 a B2). Os resultados demonstraram que a tríade universitária se apresentam de forma desarticulada nos artigos analisados. Houve predominância da abordagem sobre o ensino, em detrimento dos demais eixos (pesquisa e extensão). Alguns estudos citaram a importância da articulação entre os eixos, mas o princípio da indissociabilidade entre ensino, pesquisa e extensão não foi o foco principal de nenhuma publicação analisada nesta revisão sistematizada, fato que evidencia a possibilidade da inexistência de estudos sobre esta temática na área de Educação Física/Esporte.

Published: December 2020

As the main title ‘COVID-19 revolution: a new challenge for the internist’ states, the global coronavirus infection disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic represented a new challenge for the internists. This paper is part of a series of articles written during the difficult period of the ongoing global pandemic and published all together in this fourth issue of the Italian Journal of Medicine, with the aim of sharing the direct experiences of those who were the first to face this severe emergency, expressing each point of view in the management of COVID-19 in relation to other diseases. Each article is therefore the result of many efforts and a joint collaboration between many colleagues from the Departments of Internal Medicine or Emergency Medicine of several Italian hospitals, engaged in the front line during the pandemic. These preliminary studies therefore cover diagnostic tools available to health care personnel, epidemiological reflections, possible new therapeutic approaches, discharge and reintegration procedures to daily life, the involvement of the disease not only in the lung, aspects related to various comorbidities, such as: coagulopathies, vasculitis, vitamin D deficiency, gender differences, etc.. The goal is to offer a perspective, as broad as possible, of everything that has been done to initially face the pandemic in its first phase and provide the tools for an increasingly better approach, in the hope of not arriving unprepared to a possible second wave. This paper in particular deals with COVID-19 and gender differences.
The Role of Positional Release Therapy in Treating Recalcitrant Brachial Plexus Neuritis: A Case Report
Authors: Speicher Timothy E. , Cui Jia-wen , Scharmann Stephen D.
Published: December 2020

A 17-year-old female soccer player presented with severe right shoulder pain and scapular winging due to brachial plexus neuritis. The patient was diagnosed with Parsonage-Turner syndrome, a rare condition often resistant to traditional physical therapy, which typically persists for 6 months to years, at times requiring surgical intervention. Over the course of 6 weeks, the patient received positional release therapy once a week coupled with electrical modalities, massage, and a daily home exercise program. This case report is unique because we believe we were the first to use positional release therapy for treatment and the patient's condition resolved more quickly than is typically reported.
Virtual Goods Purchase, Game Satisfaction and Perceived Justice: An Empirical Study of Players of PVP Mobile Games
Authors: XIONG HUI , YU JIE WEI
Published: December 2020

Over recent years, the freemium business model has been a major revenue source for mobile games, namely to attract virtual consumption of players through differentiated game experience. This trend may pose challenges to the idea of “fair play,” an essential precondition for players to enjoy the game, player-versus-player (PVP) mobile game in particular. To keep track of players’ behavioral reactions to the freemium business model and their assessment of in-game experiences, we conducted a survey to disclose the relationship among the virtual goods purchase, game satisfaction, and perceived justice of PVP mobile game players (N=262). The results indicate that (1.) the game satisfaction mediates the effect of virtual goods purchase on perceived justice, and (2.) the utilitarian satisfaction demonstrates a greater significant indirect effect upon perceived justice than hedonic satisfaction. This study also discusses the implications of the above findings in terms of commerce, psychology, and culture.

Published: December 2020

Purpose This study aimed to identify the prognostic value of early metabolic response assessed using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) during radiation therapy (RT) for cervical cancer.Materials and Methods We identified 116 patients treated with definitive RT, including FDG-PET/CT–guided intracavitary brachytherapy, between 2009 and 2018. We calculated parameters including maximum (SUVmax) and mean standardized uptake values (SUVmean), metabolic tumor volume (MTV), and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) for baseline FDG-PET/CT (PETbase) and image-guided brachytherapy planning FDG-PET/CT (PETIGBT). Multivariable analyses of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were performed.Results We observed a time-dependent decrease in PET parameters between PETbase and PETIGBT; ΔSUVmax, ΔSUVmean, ΔMTV, and ΔTLG were 65%, 61%, 78%, and 93%, respectively. With a median follow-up of 59.5 months, the 5-year DFS and OS rates were 66% and 79%, respectively. Multivariable analysis demonstrated that ΔSUVmax ≥ 50% was associated with favorable DFS (hazard ratio [HR], 2.56; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.14 to 5.77) and OS (HR, 5.14; 95% CI, 1.55 to 17.01). Patients with ΔSUVmax ≥ 50% (n=87) showed better DFS and OS than those with ΔSUVmax < 50% (n=29) (DFS, 76% vs. 35%, p < 0.001; OS, 90% vs. 41%, p < 0.001, respectively). Adenocarcinoma was frequently observed in ΔSUVmax < 50% compared to ΔSUVmax ≥ 50% (27.6% vs. 10.3%, p=0.003). In addition, models incorporating metabolic parameters showed improved accuracy for predicting DFS (p=0.012) and OS (p=0.004) than models with clinicopathologic factors.Conclusion Changes in metabolic parameters, especially those in SUVmax by > 50%, can help improve survival outcome predictions for patients with cervical cancer treated with definitive RT.

Purpose The association of serum lipids with gastric cancer is controversial. We clarified the role of serum lipids in the development, progression, and prognosis of gastric cancer.Materials and Methods In total, 412 patients diagnosed with gastric cancer were prospectively recruited, and 2,934 control subjects who underwent screening endoscopy were enrolled from December 2013 to March 2017 to conduct a case-control study in a tertiary center. Serum lipid profiles, including total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), triglyceride (TG), apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), and apolipoprotein B, and clinicopathologic characteristics were analyzed.Results The gastric cancer group showed significantly lower HDL-C, higher LDL-C, and lower apoA-I level than the control group. In multivariate analysis, old age (odds ratio [OR], 1.051; p < 0.001), smoking (OR, 1.337; p < 0.001), a family history of gastric cancer (OR, 2.038; p < 0.001), Helicobacter pylori seropositivity (OR, 4.240; p < 0.001), lower HDL-C (OR, 0.712; p=0.020), and higher LDL-C (p=0.002) were significant risk factors for gastric cancer. Lower HDL-C and higher LDL-C remained significant after adjustments for covariates, including age and sex. In a subgroup analysis of the gastric cancer group, lower TG levels were associated with undifferentiated histology. No serum lipids were associated with overall survival.Conclusion Lower HDL-C and higher LDL-C were associated with the risk of gastric cancer, even after adjusting for age, sex, and other factors. In the gastric cancer group, undifferentiated histology was associated with lower TG levels.

Authors: Kim Miseon , Kim Hyeongsu , Suh Dong Hoon , Kim Yong Beom
Published: December 2020

Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the risk of cervical cancer diagnosed within 1 year after the last of multiple consecutive normal Papanicolau (Pap) tests.Materials and Methods The database of the National Health Insurance Service was used. We obtained Pap test data for 11,052,116 women aged 30-79 between 2007-2012. The cumulative incidence rates and 5-year overall survival rates of cervical cancer diagnosed within 1 year after the last normal Pap test were compared between women with one (N1), two (N2), and three consecutive normal Pap tests (N3). Women who did not receive a Pap test during the study period were assigned in the N0 group.Results The 1-year cumulative incidence rates of cervical cancer were 58.9, 24.6, 20.3, and 14.2 per 105 in the N0, N1, N2, and N3 groups, respectively. Compared to the N1 group, the risk of cervical cancer diagnosed within 1 year of the last normal Pap test decreased by 17% (relative risk [RR], 0.825; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.716 to 0.951) in the N2 group and 42% (RR, 0.578; 95% CI, 0.480 to 0.695) in the N3 group. However, the 5-year survival rate in women diagnosed with cervical cancer within 1 year of the last normal Pap test in the N3 group was not higher than that of the N1 group (79.6% vs. 81.3%, p=0.706).Conclusion As normal Pap tests are consecutively repeated, cervical cancer risk significantly decreases. However, previous consecutive normal Pap tests are not associated with improving survival outcomes in women shortly diagnosed with cervical cancer after the last normal Pap test.

Although Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) infection is an important cause of acute febrile illness in Lao PDR (Laos), patient outcome has not been evaluated. We prospectively followed up 123 JEV-infected patients (70 children < 15 years and 53 adults ≥ 15 years) admitted at Mahosot Hospital, Vientiane, from 2003 to 2013. Japanese encephalitis virus infection was diagnosed by the detection of anti-JEV IgM in cerebrospinal fluid and/or IgM seroconversion. Neurological sequelae were assessed using the Liverpool Outcome Score (LOS), total (maximum score = 75), and final (maximum score = 5). The median (interquartile range [IQR]) age of the patients was 12.0 (7.5–18.8) years, and 57% were male. The median (IQR) duration of patients’ follow-up was 4.5 (3.2–7.3) years. Of all patients, 10/123 (8.1%) died during hospitalization, and 13/123 (10.6%) died at home after discharge, giving a mortality of 18.7% (23/123) (33 [26.8%] patients were lost to follow-up). The frequency of neurological sequelae at the last follow-up was 61.2% (48.4% in adults and 69.4% in children, P = 0.135). The proportion of patients with severe and moderate functional impairment at the last follow-up was significantly higher in children (25%) than in adults (6.5%), P = 0.042. Half of the patients who were still alive at the last follow-up (67) and for whom LOS data were available (22) had improvements in their total and final LOS between discharge and the last follow-up. The total and final LOS at discharge were not significantly different between children and adults, but total LOS at the last follow-up was significantly higher in adults than in children (median [IQR]: 74.5 [73–75] versus 73.0 [73–75], P = 0.019).
Gamificación y creatividad como fundamentos para un aprendizaje significativo
Authors: Gamboa  Caicedo Gloria Esperanza , Porras Álvarez Javier , Campos Mercedes Moraima
Published: December 2020

En la actualidad, con una pandemia de trasfondo crítico, la educación formal tiende a virtualizarse y el conocimiento a digitalizarse paulatinamente Con este hecho se deben replantear cuestiones elementales como, la forma correcta en que debe educarse al ser humano, o las sapiencias que realmente debe conocer y aprender. Éste artículo es un ensayo que reflexiona sobre el uso integrado de la gamificación y la creatividad como herramientas indispensables en el proceso educativo actual. Se hace por ende indispensable como docente utilizar toda herramienta que le permita transmitir conocimientos significativos de forma propicia y efectiva para enseñar así, adecuadamente, en continua mejora retroalimentativa. Debido a esto es menester del maestro generar en el estudiante amor por el discernimiento, pero para ello se hace necesario también saber enseñar y consecuentemente educar aprendiendo.
Estado del arte de los dominios de la motricidad humana. La discursividad gestual de un coro de manos blancas
Authors: Gómez Torres Jhonny Alexis
Published: December 2020

Para interpretar el discurso gestual como manifestación artística que puede generar ciencia, es creer que tanto la ciencia como el arte guardan una estrecha relación con el mundo donde se despliega. Este escrito da cuenta de una revisión documental en torno al discurso gestual que buscó configurar una hermeneusis fundamentada en la vinculación de saberes instituidos como músico y docente y la visión científica de los referentes estudiados. Las implicaciones de esta relación constituyen las consideraciones centrales de este escrito las cuales despliego en tres aspectos: el primero contiene el proceder metodológico para la ubicación y selección de las fuentes documentales, el segundo describe los aportes encontrados en cada una de las fuentes consultadas y el tercero muestra algunas conclusiones que se derivan de esta revisión.
Aprendizaje como prototipado: experimentación en la educación infantil
Authors: Navarro Rache Cesar Augusto , Englert Corrêa Guilherme
Published: December 2020

El prototipado es reconocido como una de las actividades proyectuales más características del diseño. Al tratarse de un proceso que permite generar conocimientos y obtener aprendizajes particulares, es clara su relación con los procesos educacionales. Su comprensión es familiar en las investigaciones en diseño, sin embargo, proponemos repensar el prototipado desde la perspectiva de otra área: los estudios de ciencia, tecnología y sociedad (STS). Partiendo de ese presupuesto, este estudio se concentra en identificar el potencial del prototipado en el aprendizaje infantil, enfocado en un contexto educativo. Para tal fin, realizamos una investigación-acción que se desarrolló a través de prácticas de prototipado con ocho niños de cinco a nueve años, y que contó con la colaboración de especialistas para el diseño y monitoreo de las dinámicas. Los resultados fueron interpretados con el objetivo de defender que el aprendizaje puede ser pensado como prototipado: (i) al revelar una recursividad como construcción incesante; (ii) al posibilitar curvas de aprendizaje y estimular la confianza; (iii) al instigar diseño dialógico, discordia e inestabilidad; (iv) al crear nuevos mundos; (v) al permitir una polisemia entre los actores, y (vi) al proponer el jugar-prototipar como acción característica. Creemos que esta reflexión puede contribuir a las discusiones sobre nuevas formas de aprender en un contexto de desafíos continuos.

Avaliação no Ensino Remoto de Matemática: analisando categorias de respostas
Authors: Lima Daniel de Oliveira , Nasser Lilian
Published: December 2020

Diante da pandemia, em 2020, as aulas presenciais foram suspensas e as escolas tiveram que adotar um modelo que atendesse ao isolamento social e que permitisse a continuidade das aulas. Algumas escolas adotaram o Ensino Remoto Emergencial (ERE), outras criaram uma estrutura similar ao ensino à distância (EAD). Essas adaptações geraram outros dilemas sobre como seria o ensino e, consequentemente, como seria avaliar nestes modelos de ensino. Este trabalho relata a experiência de avaliação com três turmas da 2ª série, na Escola SESC de Ensino Médio (ESEM), que adotou o ERE, a partir de uma situação problema, estruturada no ambiente de aprendizagem com referências à realidade. O modelo usado foi uma pesquisa, que tinha como objetivo promover uma maior reflexão e compreensão sobre a importância da aplicação da função exponencial na análise do comportamento da infecção pelo vírus. Os alunos tinham que explicar a diferença entre as funções exponencial, linear e quadrática, a partir de informações de cunho matemático disponíveis num texto que deveria ser acessado por um link fornecido. Além disso, eles tinham que acessar outro material, para entender alguns conceitos relacionados ao COVID 19, como a taxa de contágio, velocidade de transmissão, e como esses conceitos (ou alguns deles) se relacionam com o modelo matemático estudado, a Função Exponencial. Usando essas produções, foram categorizadas e analisadas as respostas dos 45 alunos em relação à aprendizagem de funções exponenciais. Esta experiência indica que é possível ampliar o processo de avaliação usando as tecnologias digitais.
