Authors: SÖNMEZ TOPCU Feyza , YURTLU TEMEL Şirin
Published: January 2023

Objectives: The aims of this study were, to analyze epicardial adipose tissue and pre-sternal adipose tissue thicknesses and the relationship of the ratio of these two parameters with radiological progression, age, gender, concomitant diseases, hospitalization, length of hospital stay, need for intensive care and survival status of COVID-19 patients.
Methods: In this retrospective study, a total number of 204 PCR-positive COVID-19 patients, who have initial lung computed tomography (CT) and a second CT within 15 days due to prolonged symptoms or suspected complications were included. According to patterns of lung involvement at the time of diagnosis, patients were divided into 4 groups. In initial CT scans, epicardial adipose tissue and pre-sternal subcutaneous adipose tissue thickness were measured. Progression or regression of the disease is evaluated by comparing the findings in initial and control CTs.
Results: The mean age, epicardial adipose tissue thickness (EAT), pre-sternal adipose tissue thickness (PAT), and the EAT/PAT ratio of patients with involvement in both lungs were found to be higher than those in patients with one lung or without lung involvement and there was a statistically significant positive correlation between them.
Conclusions: This study is thought to be the first in which epicardial adipose tissue and pre-sternal adipose tissue were evaluated together in COVID-19 patients. Epicardial adipose tissue is a metabolically active organ and measurement in initial CT scans may give an easy and quick idea of the evolution of the disease.

Infectious aneurysms (IA) are cerebral aneurysms that are formed due to the infectious inflammation of the arterial wall. They are a rather rare pathology and in most cases prove to be a complication of infectious (bacterial) endocarditis of the left heart chambers. Timely diagnosis of IA in the pre-hemorrhagic period is problematic due to the variability of the clinical picture of IA, frequent blurred or low-symptomatic clinical course, the possibility of IA formation in the remote period after septic embolism, even despite the background of antibiotic therapy. The presented clinical case illustrates the first successful use of a low-profile flow-diverting stent for the treatment of a young patient with a mechanical heart valve and an infectious aneurysm of the left middle cerebral artery, developed at the site of septic embolism in the acute period of septic bacterial endocarditis accompanied by ischemic stroke. This observation demonstrates the effectiveness of the chosen method of treatment, peculiarities of adequate preoperative preparation, possible postoperative complications and detailed correction of anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapy.
Shakespeare’s Exceptional Violence: Reading Titus Andronicus with Hannah Arendt and Giorgio Agamben
Authors: Porcelli Stefania
Published: January 2023

In this paper I explore the multifaceted relationship between violence, speech and power in the most graphic of Shakespeare’s plays, Titus Andronicus. I take my cue from Hannah Arendt’s reflections on violence as opposed to power, and as something “incapable of speech,” but I read the play through the lens of Giorgio Agamben’s notion of sovereignty as the suspension of the law. I consider the dichotomy speech/muteness as an example not only of the dichotomy power/violence (Arendt) but also of the opposition between bios and zoe, that is the difference between a life worth to be included in the political realm and a life understood as the mere condition of being alive, a condition common to human beings and beasts (according to classical philosophy). In Titus Andronicus, these distinctions are blurred, and zoe becomes fully exposed to the sovereign decision. While the image of a mutilated and mute body cannot match Arendt’s idea of politics as the combination of speech and action bereft of violence, Agamben has developed the notion of a politics that renders life disposable, mute, bare, and can still be called politics or power, and precisely biopower. From this perspective, I argue, Lavinia and the other characters of Titus Andronicus are the embodiment of the concept of “bare life” as developed by Agamben, and Shakespeare’s Rome is a State of exception and of exceptional violence.

Authors: Hidayat Marzul , Mukminin Amirul
Published: January 2023

The origins of the diffusion of innovations theory are varied and span across various disciplines, and in a sort of contexts. The diffusion of Innovation framework is a theory of how, why, and at what rate new ideas, concepts, technology, technical information, and actual practices spread or diffuse through cultures or system. When innovations happen, innovations may be spread from the innovator (a state or government) to any other groups (states or governments). The inquiries of state policy innovation have been a foremost subject in political science and public policy. Political and policy academics and scholars are attracted in looking at how and why a policy or program spreads (diffusion) from one state government to another and what make happen a government or state to adopt a new program or policy. This paper will focus on (1) the diffusion of innovations model’s general characteristics,  its theoretical origins and application across fields, (2) the history of its application to policy and politics and the central premise, (3) the dominant methodological tradition in policy and political science, (4) applications to education policymaking, and (5) the limitation.

“Los celtas en la Rusia chica”
Authors: Segovia Ganivet Antonio
Published: January 2023

El presente artículo traza líneas de conexión entre la estrategia programática del Partido Comunista de España y su aplicación efectiva en los contextos locales una vez adopta la Política de Reconciliación Nacional en 1956. Mediante el análisis del caso de los comunistas de un pueblo de Granada, comprobaremos cómo la aplicación táctica de “fundirse con las masas” situó a su organización como la primera de estas características descubierta por la policía hasta ese momento. A partir de la asociación cultural de “Los Celtas”, los comunistas de Maracena abrieron nuevos espacios de interrelación que representaban a sectores populares de la sociedad rural que lograban iniciarse en el aprendizaje político. Las resonancias políticas y sociales fueron de tal importancia, que se incrusta en el imaginario popular el término “Rusia chica” y el PCE consigue un arraigo en la localidad que no abandonará hasta la década de los noventa.
Relaciones jerárquicas y protesta popular

Published: January 2023

Este trabajo aborda la especificidad de la oposición anticonstitucional en la Vizcaya anterior a la Primera Guerra Carlista. En efecto, el interés historiográfico por este último conflicto ha distorsionado la observación del realismo precedente, al marcarlo con una impronta teleológica y, sobre todo, atribuyéndole categorías ajenas al contexto. El análisis se vale de abundantes fuentes inéditas que revelan la complejidad del papel de las clases populares, cuya actuación no se puede reducir a una militancia realista o contrarrevolucionaria, sino que debe ser entendida en el entramado de relaciones propio del Antiguo Régimen.
In vitro human gut microbiota fermentation models: opportunities, challenges, and pitfalls
Authors: Isenring Julia , Bircher Lea , Geirnaert Annelies , Lacroix Christophe
Published: January 2023

The human gut microbiota (HGM) plays a pivotal role in health and disease. Consequently, nutritional and medical research focusing on HGM modulation strategies as a means of improving host health is steadily increasing. In vitro HGM fermentation models offer a valid complement to human and animal studies when it comes to the mechanistic exploration of novel modulation approaches and their direct effects on HGM composition and activity, while excluding interfering host effects. However, in vitro cultivation of HGM can be challenging due to its high oxygen sensitivity and the difficulties of accurately modeling the physio-chemical complexity of the gut environment. Despite the increased use of in vitro HGM models, there is no consensus about appropriate model selection and operation, sometimes leading to major deficiencies in study design and result interpretation. In this review paper, we aim to analyze crucial aspects of the application, setup and operation, data validation and result interpretation of in vitro HGM models. When carefully designed and implemented, in vitro HGM modeling is a powerful strategy for isolating and investigating biotic and abiotic factors in the HGM, as well as evaluating their effects in a controlled environment akin to the gut. Furthermore, complementary approaches combining different in vitro and in vivo models can strengthen the design and interpretation of human studies.

ResumenLos instrumentos urbanos contenidos en el Plan regulador como figura comprehensiva fueron insuficientes para asumir el desarrollo urbano y su obsolescencia implicó dar paso a una figura alternativa, la del plan seccional, como definición más aproximada de escala edilicia, sobre suelos no comprendidos por el plan regulador y frente a la larga tramitación de la aprobación de sus posibles cambios o ampliaciones. Es objetivo de este trabajo mostrar históricamente las incongruencias de los instrumentos de planificación frente a la condición expansiva de la ciudad en los inicios de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, a través del estudio del caso de Arica en el norte de Chile.AbstractThe urban instruments contained in the Urban Plan as a comprehensive model were insufficient to take on urban development at the beginning of the second half of the twentieth century. Its obsolescence implied the use of the alternative figure of the Sectional Plan, as a more approximate definition of architectural scale. These sectionals acted on areas not included in the Regulatory Plan, providing an alternative to the long process of approving changes or extensions to it. The objective of this work is to historically show the incongruities of the planning instruments in the face of the expansive condition of the city through the case study of Arica in northern Chile.
El paradigma del crecimiento y las Shrinking cities: caso de estudio = Tokio Shrinking cities and the growth paradigm: Tokyo Case Sud
Authors: Riva de Monti Marcela
Published: January 2023

ResumenLos sistemas de producción post-fordistas, definidos por una producción flexible y des-localizada, provocaron un cambio en la geografía de la producción. En consecuencia, se forjó una nueva dinámica en los procesos de urbanización que afectó a muchas ciudades culminando en dos tipos -a priori- antagónicos de ciudades: las shrinking cities y las ciudades globales. La definición de Tokio es controvertida. Algunas investigaciones académicas señalan la existencia del shrinkage, en tanto que la ciudad se sitúa sistemáticamente entre las primeras posiciones dentro de las ciudades globales. Este estudio de caso analiza la trayectoria de la ciudad para arrojar luz sobre el proceso que está teniendo lugar. La investigación muestra la presencia de un proceso simultáneo y desigual de crecimiento y decrecimiento, bien diferenciado del city shrinkage, ya que no evidencia las implicaciones negativas del declive. No obstante manifestaciones de deterioro y vacío urbano son apreciables en el tejido de la ciudad.AbstractPost-Fordist production systems, defined by flexible and delocalized production, brought in a shift in the geography of production. In consequence, a new dynamic in urbanization processes was forged affecting many cities across the world culminating in two -a priori- antagonistic types of cities: shrinking cities and global cities There is controversy in the definition of Tokyo, as some academic research point out the existence of the shrinking process whilst the city is consistently ranked at the forefront position within the global cities. Organized as a case study, this research analyses the city trajectory in order to shed light into the process taking place. The investigation shows the presence of a simultaneous, uneven process of growth and de-growth, well differentiated from city shrinkage as the negative.

ResumenLa presente investigación se centra en estudiar, desde una perspectiva histórica, las formas urbanas surgidas durante 1897-1946 en la Provincia de Buenos Aires, atravesadas por la relación de tensión que, durante este periodo, ejercieron la red de caminos, pavimentados, sin pavimentar, trenes, etc. La periodización que proponemos abarca el inicio del auge de los ferrocarriles, más puntualmente en el momento que el Ferrocarril del Sud llega a 25 de Mayo a partir del Empalme de Lobos (1897), hasta 1946, momento de nacionalización de los mismos. El área de estudio se encuentra alejada más de 180 km de la Capital Federal y conforma un cuadrante que toma desde la capital hasta la línea Ruta Provincial 65 (norte- sur) y definido en el otro sentido por la Ruta Nacional 205 y Ruta Nacional 5 (este – oeste). En esta oportunidad nos centramos específicamente en el partido de 25 de Mayo.AbstractThe purpose of this investigation is to study, from a historical perspective, the urban formation that took place during 1897-1946 in Buenos Aires Province, which was affected by a tense relationship that, during this period, gave rise to paved and unpaved roads, trains, etc. The periodization that we propose covers the beginning of the railway boom, more specifically at the time that the Southern railway reached 25 de Mayo city from Empalme de Lobos (1897), until 1946, when the railways were nationalized. The area under study is more than 180 km away from the Capital city, and forms a quadrant that runs from such city up to the Provincial Route 65 line (North-South), and which is defined in the opposite direction by the National Route 205 and National Route 5 (East-West). In this opportunity, we will focus specifically on 25 de Mayo city.

ResumenEl concepto de infraestructura azul y verde (IAV) refiere al reconocimiento de las capacidades propias del espacio verde y las aguas, de producir beneficios ambientales. En el marco de las infraestructuras azules, los Sistemas urbanos de drenaje sostenible (SUDS) constituyen un enfoque destinado centralmente a evitar inundaciones y recuperar el ciclo hidrológico urbano, promoviendo la biodiversidad y la mejora del paisaje. El enfoque de IAV y en particular los SUDS, podrían sin duda ser una alternativa para la ciudad de La Plata, que atraviesa un proceso de expansión urbana sin regulaciones, sobre áreas inundables y zonas de valor ecológico y paisajístico. El objetivo principal de este trabajo es analizar la aplicación IAV, y en particular de SUDS en la zona sudeste de la ciudad de La Plata, un sector de alto valor ambiental y paisajístico atravesado por un rápido proceso de expansión urbana reciente escasamente regulado.AbstractThe concept of blue and green infrastructure (IAV) refers to the capacities of green space and waters, of producing environmental benefits. Within the framework of blue infrastructures, Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) constitute an approach aimed centrally at preventing floods and recovering the urban hydrological cycle, promoting biodiversity and improving the landscape. The IAV approach, and in particular the SUDS, could undoubtedly be an alternative for the city of La Plata, which go through a process of uncontrolled urban expansion, over flood-prone areas and zones of ecological and landscape value. The main objective of this work is to analyze the application of IAV, and in particular of SUDS in the southeastern area of the city of La Plata, a sector of high environmental and landscape value that has gone through a rapid process of recent urban expansion, scarcely regulated.

Resumen Esta investigación parte de la voluntad de detectar y caracterizar los lugares del conflicto urbano que han protagonizado las tres últimas décadas de desarrollo de la ciudad de Tarragona. Para ello, este ensayo parte de la observación sistematizada y crítica del relato mediático de la prensa escrita para identificar, acotar y examinar aquellos ámbitos geográficos donde colidan, con mayor o menor virulencia, las carencias, nostalgia, resistencia al cambio y expectativas de transformación. Son los lugares donde compiten múltiples intereses, a menudo contradictorios, por orientar el devenir urbano, espacios donde toman cuerpo los designios abstractos del mercado inmobiliario y las contestaciones, resistencias y fricciones derivadas. Son también los escenarios del error, el exceso, el infortunio o la obsolescencia y abandono. En todos ellos, el conflicto urbano puede actuar como motor del cambio y principio catalizador de transformación o, por el contrario, como condena a la parálisis eterna. El análisis sistemático de la hemeroteca local y la ponderación de variables como el momento, el grado de impacto, el sentimiento asociado a cada noticia o los ámbitos referentes emerge, pues, como estrategia innovadora para estructurar un hilo argumental de la biografía, geometría y geografía de los principales hechos urbanos de cualquier realidad metropolitana contemporánea.Abstract This research is based on the desire to detect and characterize the places of urban conflict that have played the leading roles of the last three decades of development in the city Tarragona. To do so, this essay starts from the systematized and critical observation of the media narrative of the written press to identify, delimit and examine those geographical areas where, with greater or lesser virulence, deficiencies, nostalgia, resistance to change and expectations of transformation collide. They are the places where multiple interests, often contradictory, compete to guide the urban future, spaces where the abstract designs of the real estate market and the resulting disputes, resistances and frictions take shape. They are also scenarios of error, excess, misfortune or obsolescence and abandonment. In all of them, the urban conflict can act as a motor and a catalyst for change or, on the contrary, as a sentence to eternal paralysis. Thus, the systematic analysis of the local newspaper archive and the weighting of variables such as the moment, the impact degree, the sentiment associated with each piece of news or the relevant areas emerges as an innovative strategy to structure a plot line of biography, geometry and geography of the main urban facts of any contemporary metropolitan reality.
A Qualitative Analysis of the Main Factors in Bed Management in High Complexity Hospital Emergencies
Authors: Matos Porto Bruno , Xavier Terra Stela
Published: January 2023

Hospitals are under pressure from society to improve the efficiency of their bed management processes. Among the various effects of inefficiency, the lack of beds to meet the demand stands out, which has increased significantly due to COVID-19, aggravating the overcrowding of emergency departments. Effective management of hospital production capacity includes bed management processes, which can be improved in order to leverage hospital performance. Thus, this study sought to understand how bed management works and identify the main factors that influence its management. The study was performed through a case study, with data collected from semi-structured interviews and bibliographic research, which were triangulated. Thematic content analysis of the case and cross-analysis were performed. As a result, the main factors that influence bed management were identified: communication between teams and units; definition of performance goals; decisions shared between units; occupation and discharge planning by the teams; length of stay; nurses; and COVID-19. The greatest difficulties in the management process are related to these factors.
Study of The Seismic Stress State of the "Subgrade - Base" System, Taking Into Account the Formation and Propagation of Surface Seismic Waves
Authors: Shayakhmetov Saulet , Zhauyt Algazy
Published: January 2023

The problems of formation and propagation of surface seismic waves in vertically layered and horizontally inhomogeneous media are studied. A mathematical model has been developed for the propagation of surface seismic waves in an inhomogeneous medium based on the use of the fundamental principles of wave dynamics and Fourier transforms. The existence of various types of groups of these waves is proved, and their main properties are studied. It has been established that the reflection coefficients of different groups of a dispersive wave on models of half-spaces (a layered, inhomogeneous medium) with a sharp velocity differentiation are characterized by the same dependence on the angle of incidence as in the absence of dispersion. In the region of the critical angle, which depends on the period of the incident wave, a local decrease in the intensity of wave reflection is observed, which is associated with the origin of the head dispersive wave. It has been found that the reflection coefficients of Rayleigh waves from low-velocity layers, thin (d / λ2 = 0.205) and thick (d / λ2 = 0.82) are approximately 0.2 ± 0.04 and practically do not change with increasing angle of incidence. On the basis of theoretical studies, it was revealed that reflected surface waves carry information both about the elastic properties of the reflecting medium and about the dimensions of the reflecting horizontal inhomogeneity. An experimental dispersion curve of the group velocity of Rayleigh waves on the Central Asia-Caucasus path has been obtained. The seismic stress state of the "subgrade-base" system was studied. Based on the analysis of the results of numerical experiments, it has been established that in order to obtain a complete picture of the seismically stressed state of the subgrade, it is necessary to take into account the contribution to it of each component of the accelerogram of a real earthquake.

Chrysoeriol (CHE) is a flavonoid substance that exists in many plants and has various physiological and pharmacological effects, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-tumor, and protective activity, especially for the cardiovascular system and liver. This study aimed to analyze the results and possible mechanisms of CHE on early porcine embryo development. Adding CHE to the culture media can improve the development quality of early porcine embryos. CHE significantly increased the blastocyst rate and total cell number of embryos in vitro. The apoptosis of blastocyst in CHE-treated culture also decreased significantly compared with untreated culture. Furthermore, CHE downregulated intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and increased glutathione (GSH) in embryos. CHE was also shown to improve the activity of mitochondria and inhibit the occurrence of autophagy. In addition, antioxidant-related genes (SOD1, SOD2, and CAT) and cell pluripotency-related genes (SOX2, OCT4, and NANOG) were upregulated, while those related to apoptosis (Caspase 3) and autophagy (LC3B) showed a downward trend after supplementation with CHE. These results indicated that CHE improved the development of porcine embryos in vitro by reducing oxidative stress and autophagy levels.
A Novel Physiologically Based Algorithm (PBA) for Fast CFD Computation of Flow Fractional Reserve (FFR) in Coronary Artery Trees
Authors: Sumbekova Sholpan , Su Xiaohui , Zhao Yong
Published: January 2023

A novel physiologically based algorithm (PBA) for fast CFD computation of Flow Fractional Reserve (FFR) in Coronary Artery Trees (CATs) is proposed and developed, which, unlike traditional methods, is based on the extension of the Murray’s law for blood vessels at the outlets and extra inlet conditions prescribed alternatively and iteratively. The PBA is then implemented in both SimVascular and Ansys CFD for testing and validation. For validation purpose, 3D models of CATs are built by using their CT images and computational meshes generated for mesh convergence study. Results obtained are then compared with Invasive Coronary Angiographic (ICA) data for validation and evaluation of its accuracy and computational efficiency. It is found that discrepancies between experimental and calculated values of pressure and flow rate at the inlet were less than 0.1% at the end of the 10th round of iteration or less. Further validation shows that the difference between estimated and experimental FFR agree with each other with a maximum difference of 1.62% after convergence is achieved. The PBA is found to be a robust patient-specific and physiologically sound method that can be a good alternative to the existing Lumped Parameter Model (LPM) which is based on empirical scaling correlations using limited population-averaged data and requires nonlinear iterative computation for convergence.

In this research, assume a SuperHyperGraph. Then a ``Failed SuperHyperClique'' $\mathcal{C}(NSHG)$ for a neutrosophic SuperHyperGraph $NSHG:(V,E)$ is the maximum cardinality of a SuperHyperSet $S$ of SuperHyperVertices such that there's a SuperHyperVertex to have a SuperHyperEdge in common. Assume a SuperHyperGraph. Then an ``$\delta-$Failed SuperHyperClique'' is a \underline{maximal} Failed SuperHyperClique of SuperHyperVertices with \underline{maximum} cardinality such that either of the following expressions hold for the (neutrosophic) cardinalities of SuperHyperNeighbors of $s\in S:$ $~|S\cap N(s)| > |S\cap (V\setminus N(s))|+\delta,~|S\cap N(s)| < |S\cap (V\setminus N(s))|+\delta.$ The first Expression, holds if $S$ is an ``$\delta-$SuperHyperOffensive''. And the second Expression, holds if $S$ is an ``$\delta-$SuperHyperDefensive''; a``neutrosophic $\delta-$Failed SuperHyperClique'' is a \underline{maximal} neutrosophic Failed SuperHyperClique of SuperHyperVertices with \underline{maximum} neutrosophic cardinality such that either of the following expressions hold for the neutrosophic cardinalities of SuperHyperNeighbors of $s\in S:$ $~|S\cap N(s)|_{neutrosophic} > |S\cap (V\setminus N(s))|_{neutrosophic}+\delta,~ |S\cap N(s)|_{neutrosophic} < |S\cap (V\setminus N(s))|_{neutrosophic}+\delta.$ The first Expression, holds if $S$ is a ``neutrosophic $\delta-$SuperHyperOffensive''. And the second Expression, holds if $S$ is a ``neutrosophic $\delta-$SuperHyperDefensive''. A basic familiarity with Neutrosophic Failed SuperHyperClique theory, SuperHyperGraphs theory, and Neutrosophic SuperHyperGraphs theory are proposed.
Modifying the Design of Pond Production Systems can Improve the Health and Welfare of Farmed Nile Tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus
Authors: Emam Wasseem
Published: January 2023

Infected fish have been known to recover from mild illness when they are able to locate to warmer water. This study aimed to replicate this ‘behavioural fever’ effect in an aquaculture setting by artificially heating a section of a fish pond (thereby introducing a thermal gradient) and effectively modifying pond design. This was achieved through the construction of a ‘greenhouse’ type structure above a section of the pond. Over the length of the production cycle at three typical Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) farms, the study collected data on water quality and fish growth and at the end of the cycle, blood samples were taken and total production was recorded. At each farm, fish were divided into two identical ponds, one with a greenhouse covering 3% of the pond surface area and one without. Results showed that greenhouse was effective in warming the surface of the water immediately below it. Oxygen levels were also higher under the greenhouse than outside of it and higher than in the control pond. Fish reared in the greenhouse ponds tended to be larger than the control ponds and had improved physiological and immune status (i.e., better liver and kidney function, higher antioxidant activity and lysozyme count; p < 0.05). The results of this study suggest that low-cost interventions that introduce thermal gradients in aquaculture systems may hold promise for improving health and welfare status of farmed fish in developing countries.
Toward the construction of the entropic-force model of the expansion of the Universe due to the gravitationally-induced production of dark matter and the influence of exchange entropy on the event horizon
Authors: Kolesnichenko Aleksandr Vladimirovich , Marov Michail Yakovlevich
Published: January 2023

Within the framework of Prigogin's gravitational theory of the geometry-matter connection that ensures the production of particles in a cosmological fluid, a single-fluid model of the evolution of a spatially flat, homogeneous and isotropic Universe is thermodynamically constructed. In order to obtain it, the continuity equation (energy conservation equation) was derived from the first law of thermodynamics taking into account the gravity-induced creation of matter and energy exchange processes on the visible horizon of the Universe. Based on this equation and the fundamental Friedman equation describing the expansion of the Universe, in the context of the entropic formalitу modified Friedman-Robertson-Walker equations were constructed to model various scenarios of the evolution of the flat Universe with matter production. In their derivation, several forms of exchangeable phenomenological entropies associated by assumption with the region of the visible cosmological horizon were used. The resulting generalized Prigogine model agrees well with the standard cosmological ?-model for cold dark matter and allows us to explain the accelerated expansion of the late Universe, providing its cosmological history without the introduction of new fields.

Published: January 2023

Stunting reduction and sanitation have been essential goals in national sustainable development. Nutrition and sanitation education is critical to prevent stunting because children’s growth requires optimal nutrition and a healthy environment. A community service activity was conducted under the health scheme supported by Universitas Siliwangi for 2022 (PbM-SK) in collaboration with the women association members in Sambongsari Village, Tasikmalaya, West Java. Eighteen organisation members who participated in the activity. They were given counselling about the causes of stunting, the impact of stunting, the fulfilment of nutrition, and the effects of sanitation. The purposes of community service activities were to understand the causal factors, the characteristics of stunting, the impact of stunting, and healthy sanitation. Public awareness to consume food containing protein, calcium, and vitamin D, which are essential nutrients. Problems in households with toddlers with chronic diseases such as tuberculosis (TB) are usually less able to distinguish the causes and treatment of diseases with stunting conditions because there are physical growth disorders. Thus, education to prevent stunting is essential so that public understanding is more optimal on the prevention and proper handling of toddlers with stunting characteristics and toddlers who experience certain diseases. The evaluation of stunting and sanitation knowledge in Sambongpari, Tasikmalaya City, showed increased public understanding of stunting and sanitation. However, it was not significant, namely the average value of 36.5 to 68.6. Stunting management strategies closely related to children’s golden period, namely specific nutrition interventions for the First 1,000 Days of Life, can determine brain growth, intelligence, height, and vulnerability to chronic disease risk.

Relevance. The N. V. Sklifosovsky Research Institute for Emergency Medicine is a leading multidisciplinary medical institution with a unique corporate culture. In its established work team, the heads of departments are carriers and indicators of values for the employees. P u r p o s e . To study the values of the heads of departments. M e t h o d s . Anonymous survey among two groups of heads: GrS (scientific departments) and GrC (clinical departments) using the methodology of assessing the value profile (questionnaires: SVS‑57, PVQ‑47) and labor motives (Martin-Ritchie questionnaire). F i n d i n g s . The questionnaires were filled out by 25 heads, of which GrS – 11 people (44%), GrC – 14 (56%). According to the Schwartz questionnaire, in the GrS, “Self-Direction” was in the first place in the value profile rating, “Benevolence” was in the second place, “Security” was in the third, and in the GrC, “Security” was in the first place, “Benevolence” was in the second, “Self-Direction” was in the third. Regression analysis was carried out in the general group: clustering was determined by the indicator “Universalism” (0.13). Its strong correlation with “Security” was revealed (k=0.73, p<0.01). According to the Martin-Ritchie questionnaire, the main motivating factor for people is the feeling of their own relevance in interesting and socially useful activities. In particular, the respondents for whom “Security” is not a priority want more recognition from other people than employees for whom “Security” is very important. The respondents ranking the “Security” value first prefer material incentives, but they also prefer to set challenging goals and achieve them. C o n c l u s i o n s . In the rating of value orientations among the heads of scientific and clinical departments, there are divergent values of “Self-Direction” and “Security”, which increases the risk of professional burnout. The priority motives of mid-level executives were identified. The data obtained during the CC monitoring can be used for the development of communication strategies within the clinic (including in the distribution of functional responsibilities), as well as for image-building activities aimed at the external environment.

Published: January 2023

Los dispositivos móviles han adquirido un gran protagonismo en la educación en los últimos años. Además, su uso se ha intensificado a raíz de la pandemia por Covid-19. En este sentido, ante la multitud de experiencias educativas cabe discernir entre un buen uso del dispositivo móvil para llevar a cabo la práctica docente. El objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar estrategias de aprendizaje con dispositivos móviles para contar con modelos de buenas prácticas docentes. Para ello, se aplicó un diseño de estudio transversal a partir de la distribución de una encuesta en línea que incluyó una escala estandarizada y un cuestionario abierto. En el estudio participaron un total de 14 profesores, con edades comprendidas entre los 28 y 64 años (M = 48,42; DT = 10,67). Los resultados obtenidos muestran que los factores sociodemográficos no influyeron en el desarrollo de buenas prácticas docentes con dispositivos móviles. Por su parte, solo cinco docentes se identificaron como agentes de buenas prácticas docentes y fue recopilada la experiencia llevada a cabo en el aula. Finalmente, las buenas prácticas docentes son un tema de interés para contar con modelos prácticos que sirvan de referencia a otros docentes y puedan implementarse en la Universidad.
The concept of sobornost’ in the Georges Gurvitch’s philosophy of law
Authors:   Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University, Zagirnyak Mikhail Yu.
Published: January 2023

The literature on the subject contains a number of indications that G.D. Gurvitch pro­vided a justification for sobornost as a legal concept reflecting the level of social deve­lopment. However, there are still no special studies devoted to this issue. The author ex­plores Gurvitch’s doctrine of auto-theurgy as a justification of a sociocultural reality and shows how Gurvitch characterizes the concept of volezrenie as a way of socialization and enculturation of an individual. The analysis of volezrenie is then used to explain why the interaction of individuals and collective social actors is a legal matter in Gurvitch’s doctrine. In his doctrine of social law, Gurvitch identifies any social fact as a legal fact. For this reason, all social interactions acquire the status of normative facts, i.e. situations of law and order formation. According to Gurvitch, coexistence of a multitude of norma­tive facts, i.e. legal pluralism, ensures the flexibility of a legal system and becomes the basis for a harmonization of personal values of individuals and transpersonal values of social phenomena. Based on these provisions, Gurvitch argues that social law contrib­utes to the achievement of social unity, namely, sobornost in the most effective way. Gurvitch defines sobornost as a self-organizing wholeness within which the freedom of an individual finds its expression through participation in the development of culture it­self. In conclusion, it is shown that sobornost, understood as a legal concept, is used in Gurvitch’s philosophy to justify an ideal of social development that overcomes the limitations of the meta-ideologies of individualism and collectivism.

Published: January 2023

Memes são uma espécie de mainstream do período atual. Diante disso, este trabalho pretende, ao passo que se assegura a função comunicativa dos memes como um discurso notadamente encontrado nas redes sociais digitais, destacar o seu potencial educativo, ou seja, desvelar a contribuição desse recurso multimodal, com uma linguagem que é típica dos multiletramentos, para o ensino e a aprendizagem de Geografia, fazendo com que as aulas desta disciplina, em espaços escolares, sejam atrativas e capazes de fazer com que o estudo de determinados conteúdos, por vezes abstratos, gere significados concretos no cotidiano dos sujeitos do processo de ensino-aprendizagem. Para tanto, sendo a Cartografia um campo de estudo pelo qual a ciência geográfica se utiliza para melhor elucidar os acontecimentos e/ou fenômenos que ocorrem no espaço, serão utilizados/criados memes com referência a temática de escala, coordenadas geográficas, projeções, fusos horários, entre outros. Parte-se da necessidade de dar ao aluno, através da mediação do docente, a possibilidade de aproximar-se de conhecimentos cartográficos e apreendê-los de maneira mais significativa, a partir desse recurso que os estudantes revelam ter bastante contato em atividades do cotidiano, bem como de fazerem uso, para comunicação e interação social. Logo, ao se apresentar a intenção de trabalhar com tais textos contemporâneos na/para a Cartografia Escolar, significa dizer que eles, quando fundamentados didaticamente, possibilitam uma melhor apreensão das formascom que o ser humano constrói o seu espaço e transforma a natureza, granjeando o interesse dos estudantes para com o que irá ser abordado em sala de aula.
