Evolution and changes in the physician-patient relationship
Authors: Osorio José Henry
Published: December 2019

The idealized vision of the physician-patient relationship was characterized by patient trust and physician availability, in a long-term relationship in which physicians knew many things about their patients and their families, being the physician a part of the patient's community. Physician employers, pharmaceutical companies, and insurance companies have abruptly entered the once private relationship between physicians and patients, changing a true relationship into a simple encounter. The substitution of the generic terms physician and patient for provider and client mirrors the increased impersonality of the encounter based on the commercialization of medicine. The present review analyzes the situations, which have led to the progressive and unavoidable deterioration of the physician-patient relationship within a globalized society.
Dear Editor

During my years of scientific work in Colombia, I have faced administrative difficulties which deserve comments to help improve these situations. Although the whole procedure of doing science in our country is a greater challenge than in the developed world, I would like to highlight some specific points where I feel we can take some measures to help our work.i) The very slow editorial processes of the journals. This is actually a problem shared by other countries in the region; however, our journals call my attention given the very slow and cumbersome process of revising and publishing a manuscript. This is, I feel, a problem for the whole scientific community in the country, which involves a journal editor and goes through the referees and the authors of the manuscripts. Table 1 illustrates how serious the problem is; it shows the mean number of days for accepting and publishing original papers and reviews papers that appeared in three biomedical journals category A (according to Publindex, by Colciencias www.colciencias.gov.co) in Colombia during the past two years, compared to the time taken for the same procedures in three international biomedical journals, matched by topic with the Colombian ones and also ranked A according to the homologation issued by Colcien­cias. Our journals published 214 papers during the last two years, with a mean of 214 days for a paper to be accepted and 334 days for it to be published. These numbers are far above those found for international journals in which a manuscript takes only 137 days to be accepted and 229 days to be published (n=205). Moreover, the international journals published online versions of the accepted papers up to 6 months in advance of the printed publication. Our delays affect the visibility and impact of our research, and because the speed of publication is an important issue for authors when choosing a journal to submit manuscripts, our numbers deter potential inter­national authors. I would like to suggest some measures that can be taken to improve our numbers: to include as a criteria for the classification of the journals an index of the speed of manuscript publication; to improve process management with the help of specialized softwares; to publish the times taken by the referees to evaluate the works, for instance in the section devoted to listing their names as used by some journals; to conduct pedagogy on the importance of timely revision of a manuscript for a colleague; to create precise short forms to be filled out by the referees; to unify the instructions to authors for all the journals in a given field; to increase the database of reviewers for the journals with national and international scientists; to pay for the evaluation depending on the time taken by the reviewer; to include a strict deadline for the authors to send back a corrected version of a revised manuscript; to move from printed, more expensive journals, to online, cheaper journals, as a means of increasing the number of pages per issue.
Health-related quality of life in adults with HIV/AIDS: Comparison of MOSSF-36, WHOQOL-BREF and WHOQOL-HIV-BREF, Medellin, Colombia, 2009
Authors: Cardona Arias Jaiberth
Published: December 2019

Introduction: In Colombia, there are few studies that have evaluated the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of individuals infected with HIV/AIDS through MOSSF-36, WHOQOL-BREF or WHOQOL-HIV-BREF and no studies have been reported comparing some of its psychometric properties.Objective: To describe the HRQOL and to analyze the psychometric properties of two generic and one specific instruments to measure HRQOL in a group of people living with HIV/AIDS in Medellin, Colombia, 2009.Methodology: Cross-sectional study in a nonrandom sample of 187 subjects with HIV/AIDS. The MOSSF-36, WHOQOL-BREF, and WHOQOL-HIV-BREF were applied. The description was made with proportions and summary measures; reliability was assessed with Cronbach's alpha, Pearson's correlation coefficients were used for internal consistency and discriminant validity, and the convergent/divergent validity of the concepts of HRQOL with the correlation among the domains of the instruments.Results: Higher HRQOL scores were observed in Physical Function, Environment, Level of Independence and Spirituality. The MOSS-36 showed an excellent level of reliability, internal consistency and discriminant validity in its eight domains; the WHOQOL-BREF presented excellent psychometric properties in Physical Health, Environment and Social Relations, and good properties in Psychological Health; whereas, the WHOQOL-HIV-BREF had excellent psychometric properties in Social Relations, Environment, Spirituality and Independence and good properties in Physical and Psychological Health. There were correlations above 0.4 among domains of different instruments, which show the convergence of the measurement of HRQOL with the instruments applied.Conclusion: The MOSSF-36 showed a perfect profile of psychometric characteristics, the WHOQOL-BREF and WHOQOL-HIV-BREF were an acceptable level and the constructs of the three instruments converge, indicating good development of tools for studying HRQOL in HIV/AIDS infected individuals in Colombia.

Published: December 2019

Introduction: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is, over all newborn surgical afflictions, the most deathly, representing the main GI problem in neonatal intensive care units (NICU) and a medical/surgical emergency in which early diagnosis and opportune treatment may diminish surgical needs and mortality. Objective: To describe the features of patients with NEC attended at a third-level hospital NICU in the city of Cali in 2006.Method and materials: We conducted a pilot descriptive retrospective study that included 32 clinical records of newborns in the NICU (named CIRENA) from the Hospital Universitario del Valle (HUV) with NEC diagnosis. Finally, we made a descriptive analysis of the data by using the Epi-Info statistics program. Results: In 2006, 1555 newborns were admitted to HUV-CIRENA and 32 (2%) of them were diagnosed with NEC, a percentage that is similar to that of other countries; half of which weighed less than 1500 grams and only three pregnant women had adequate prenatal care, 17(53.1%) of these newborns were female and 15(46.9%) were male.       Conclusions: Although the majority of NEC cases occurs in premature and/or very low weight children, it is outstanding the number of full-term newborns, either on gestational age and weight, that developed early NEC. There is a visible relationship among low birth weight, prematurity, and the development of NEC, especially in the higher degrees of the disease, where the tendency is the presentation of late NEC.
Acute glomerulonephritis, rapidly progressive emphasis on commitment
Authors: Castro Adolfo León , Huertas José Fernando , Hurtado Jean Sebastián
Published: December 2019

Acute glomerulonephritis (GNA) is a wide group of diseases with the common characteristics of abrupt onset and proliferation of endocapillary glomerular cells. Clinically, they usually manifest as acute nephritic syndrome: hematuria, acute renal failure, hypertension and mild proteinuria, although they can appear as recurrent hematuria. GNA can be present in association with a variety of bacterial and viral infections, but in most cases the initial antigenic initiating stimulus is unknown. Patients with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis often present acute onset of manifestations of nephritis, such as azotemia, oliguria, edema, hypertension, proteinuria, and hematuria with «active» urine sediment that often contains red blood cell casts, pigmented casts, and cellular debris. This article, aimed at all primary care staff and seeking to increase their awareness of this disease, discusses in more detail the clinical, pathogenesis, pathology, and treatments available from one of the glomerulonephritis with greater impact on survival patient.
Exploiting block copolymer phase segregation to tune vitrimer properties

p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; line-height: 17.1px; font: 16.0px Times; color: #000000; -webkit-text-stroke: #000000} span.s1 {font-kerning: none} In this paper, phase-segregating acrylic block copolymers are used to construct vitrimers. The resulting phase-segregated vitrimers display markedly different thermal and mechanical properties relative to those of homogeneous statistical copolymer-derived vitrimers. Importantly, the volume fraction of the functional block (i.e., the nominal cross-link density) can be used to modulate the stress relaxation profile of block vitrimers, while statistical copolymer-derived vitrimers display no change in relaxation behavior as a function of cross-link density. This study demonstrates that block copolymers offer additional design space to tune vitrimer properties, independent of polymer and cross-link identity and dynamic exchange chemistry.

Authors: Silva Guido , Pérez Freddy , Marín Diana
Published: December 2019

Objetivos.Estimar la carga de tuberculosis (TB) en menores de 15 años y describir las características clínico, epidemiológicas y los resultados del tratamiento antituberculoso en Ecuador.

Métodos.Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo utilizando los datos del programa nacional de TB de los años 2015 y 2016. Se estimaron la tasa y el porcentaje de casos de TB infantil y se describieron las características de la enfermedad y el resultado del tratamiento según las categorías de edad: 0-4, 5-9 y 10-14 años.

Resultados.De los 10 991 casos de TB diagnosticados, 223 (2,03%) fueron menores de 15 años; según la región del país esta carga varió entre 0 y 5,5%. De los 223 casos, en 213 se había registrado el resultado del tratamiento y fueron incluidos en el estudio; 78 (37%) eran menores de 5 años y en 147 (69%) no hubo registro de la investigación de contactos. Sesenta y cinco (68%) de los adolescentes y 40 (51%) de los menores de 5 años tenían diagnóstico de TB pulmonar. La prevalencia de VIH fue 11,5% en los menores 5 años y 6,3% en el grupo de 10-14 años. El tratamiento fue satisfactorio en el 93% de los casos, (curación, 36,6%, tratamiento terminado, 56,8%).

Conclusiones:Ecuador presenta un alto porcentaje de subdiagnóstico de TB infantil y una carga menor a la esperada, principalmente en menores de 5 años. La alta prevalencia de VIH y la falta de sistematización adecuada de la investigación de contactos en los adolescentes revelan la necesidad de considerar estrategias centradas en la familia y que involucren la capacitación del personal de salud en el manejo del paciente pediátrico centrándose en las necesidades específicas de cada población.
Determinants of sputum smear nonconversion in smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Suriname, 2010 – 2015
Authors: Commiesie Eric , Stijnberg Deborah , Marín Diana , Perez Freddy , Sanchez Mauro
Published: December 2019

Objective. To identify factors associated with sputum smear nonconversion in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) in Suriname.

Methods. A case-control study was conducted using routinely-collected surveillance data of PTB cases reported in January 2010 – December 2015 and recorded in the database of the National Tuberculosis Program of Suriname. Cases were smear-positive PTB patients whose sputum results were negative 2 months after treatment initiation. Controls were the smear-positive PTB patients whose sputum results were negative in the same timeframe. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to examine associations between potential risk factors and smear conversion.

Results. The two age groups ≥ 35 years (35 – 54 years, AOR: 2.7, 95%CI: 1.2 – 6.1; and 55+ years, AOR: 2.5, 95%CI: 1.1 – 5.9) and high bacillary load at baseline (AOR 2.34, 95%CI: 1.2 – 4.8) were significantly associated with delayed smear conversion.

Conclusion. The National TB program of Suriname should develop strategies to address patients at higher risk for delayed smear conversion to prevent further spreading and unfavorable treatment outcomes. To better inform decision-making and future studies, the NTP should expand its data collection to include all risk factors for delayed smear conversion.
The River Goddess and Melody-Makers in Nigeria: A Cultural View on Majek Fashek and Victor Uwaifo
Authors: Omoera Osakue Stevenson , Omoruan Daniel Eromosele
Published: December 2019

The art of music-making is a mental/creative activity. However, spiritual influence cannot be ruled out in the process of constructing music. The mental activity is akin to the deployment of the intellect, while the spiritual influence could be as a result of a direct encounter or impartation by a spirit being through dream/vision as typified by two Nigerian performing artists, Majek Fashek and Victor Uwaifo, who are the foci of this study. Exploring the concept of esotericism with emphasis on music performance, this article contends that although music-making is a mental/creative activity, spiritual or extra-mental influences supervene, with particular reference to the lives and performance careers of the two selected African musicians/media celebrities from Benin City in Nigeria. In doing this, it uses historical-analytic, key informant interview (KII), and direct observation methods to critically reflect on how the supernatural influences their music-making activities.

Authors: Abeshu Gemechu Adimassu
Published: December 2019

This article chronicles the emergence of a new form of power in the Afar Region of Ethiopia. The Afar people are predominantly Muslim pastoralists who live in a territory referred to as the Afar-Triangle (located in Ethiopia, Djibouti and Eritrea). Fieldwork for this study was conducted on Dobi in the Afar Region of Ethiopia, the second largest salt mining site in Ethiopia. In 2004, Dobi fell under the control of an individual by the name of As Mohammed Humed Yayyo. This article focuses on this specific Big Man. Since his emergence, this Big Man became the sole power figure who grants access to mine salt on Dobi and who collects taxes. The nature of the relation between the Big Man and the Ethiopian State has been fluid and is characterised by collaboration and conflict.

Published: December 2019

Sharia banks are present because of people's needs for alternative transactions that are without interest or usury. One form of transactions in Islamic banks is financing including mudharabah, musyarakah and murabahah which are the most frequently used contracts. Musharaka financing is the biggest contributor to assets in Islamic banks. So the high financing will affect the level of profitability of Islamic banks. The researcher wanted to examine the risks of musharaka financing to the profitability of BPR Syari'ah Situbondo which will be projected with ROA. With the formulation of problem 1) What was the procedure for financing Musyarakah in the Syari'ah Situbondo Rural Credit Bank? 2) What did risks occur in musyarakah financing to return on assets? The approach used in this research was qualitative research. While the type of research used by researchers in this research was descriptive research means describing the variables, one by one. The results showed that the Musharaka financing procedure at the Syari'ah Situbondo People's Financing Bank by fulfilling the requirements to become a BPR Syari'ah Situbondo customer by signing and filling out an account bookkeeping application form containing a complete identity and must follow the procedures determined by the BPR Syari'ah Situbondo. Risks that occur were usually when the customer did not only have one project. The funds that had been disbursed by the SRB will be used for other projects. So that the risk of musyarakah financing affects the profitability of banks.

Porto Maravilha dos residenciais e das grandes corporações - Discursos de um prometido “legado olímpico”
Authors: Freitas Ricardo Ferreira , Fortuna Vania , Sousa Mônica
Published: December 2019

Este trabalho investiga a produção de sentidos do Porto Maravilha na cobertura do jornal O Globo, do Rio de Janeiro. Sob a perspectiva teórico-metodológica de Eni Orlandi (1999), analisamos reportagens, veiculadas entre 2010 e 2014, que produziram “efeitos de verdade” sobre a “revitalização” como o “caminho único” para tornar a zona portuária um lugar cobiçado por moradores da classe média e corporações transnacionais. Encontramos nessas regularidades discursivas evidências de um trabalho de memória da degradação e do passado histórico da região que acaba por estimular a especulação imobiliária. Discursos que se mostram atravessados pelos interesses da parceria público-privada que viabilizou o Porto Maravilha, tomado como um legado dos Jogos Olímpicos de 2016. Mas esse argumento se revelou uma “armadilha” discursiva. No que tange à ocupação da área por moradores da classe média e pelas corporações transnacionais, o que seria legado ainda é promessa.
Vielas de Sentido: Discurso e imaginário na cobertura do Globo sobre a “ocupação” do Alemão
Authors: Villela Cícero Costa , Santana Wedencley Alves
Published: December 2019

O presente trabalho se insere no contexto de uma pesquisa que pretende fazer uma cartografia dos discursos sobre as favelas. Nesse sentido, a partir da perspectiva da Análise de Discurso, busca-se analisar matérias sobre o acontecimento discursivo em que se constituiu a chamada “pacificação do Alemão”. Intenta-se compreender o papel do jornalismo na construção imaginária e simbólica do espaço urbano enquanto destituído de heterogeneidade. Para isso recorre-se ao jornal “O Globo” e ao arquivo de reportagens sobre o dia seguinte da ocupação do Complexo do Alemão. Parte-se do pressuposto de que ao narrar o espaço urbano, a mídia também situa e contribui para a construção de sentidos e sujeitos passíveis de serem encontrados em determinados ambientes, mas que, hipótese central, é também marcada por uma certa heterogeneidade.

Welcome to fear city: crime film, crisis and the urban imagination
Authors: Cardoso Eduardo Prado
Published: December 2019

O livro Welcome to fear city: crime film, crisis and the urban imagination apresenta uma análise histórica e estética de filmes policiais de locação produzidos na década de 1970 nos Estados Unidos da América. Ao discorrer sobre crises urbanas do período, refletidas em novas paisagens arquitetônicas, destaques da imprensa e movimentos sociopolíticos, Nathan Holmes argumenta que os filmes de crime, em sua diversidade, tocaram os espaços públicos de maneira contundente, inclusive contrastando a vivacidade e desordem dos centros urbanos com a gradativa homogeneização suburbana.

Flawed and Fine? The Statue of Hel in the Museo Egizio, Turin (Cat. 7352)
Authors: Poole Federico
Published: December 2019

The article is a study of a seated female statue held in the Museo Egizio in Turin (Cat. 7352), so far mentioned in scholarly literature only in passing. It depicts a woman named Hel, whose involvement in cult activity is emphasized by the menat collar she holds and by references to music-making in one of the two texts inscribed on the pedestal. The sculpture, acquired by the museum in 1824 with the Drovetti collection, dates from the Nineteenth Dynasty and originates in all likelihood from Saqqara. While it belongs squarely within a well-defined tradition of New Kingdom elite sculpture, it displays some apparently unique peculiarities, which raise some questions of interpretation.

تضم المقالة دراسة حول تمثال أنثى جالسة و محفوظ في المتحف المصري في تورينو (Cat. 7352) ، لم يرد ذكره حتى الآن في الدراسات العلمية إلا بشكل عابر. يُصوِّر امرأة تُدعى "هيل"، نعلم أنها كانت تشارك في نشاطات دينية و ذلك من خلال طوق الـ"مينات" الذي تضعه وأيضاً من خلال أحد النصوص المنقوشة على قاعدة التمثال والذي يشير إلى الموسيقى. حصل المتحف على التمثال في عام 1824 مع مجموعة دروفيتي، يعود تاريخه إلى الأسرة التاسعة عشرة ويرجع أصله غالباً إلى سقارة. أغلب الظن أنه ينتمي إلى تقليد محددة في نحت الشخصيات المرموقة لدى عصر الدولة الحديثة، غير أنه يعرض بعض الخصائص الفريدة والتي تثير بعض الأسئلة حول تفسيرها.
La estrategia DOTS, en búsqueda de la cura para la tuberculosis
Authors: Cardona Vélez Jonathan , Jiménez Cotes Evert Armando , Mejía Cardona Laura
Published: December 2019

Introducción: en la actualidad, la tuberculosis es considerada un problema mundial de salud pública de grave magnitud que requiere atención urgente y causa considerables costos directos e indirectos a los individuos y la sociedad. Directly Observed Therapy-Short Course (DOTS) es una estrategia acortada supervisada para el tratamiento de la tuberculosis, cuyo fin es asegurar la curación de la enfermedad. Objetivo: Determinar los conceptos y elementos claves que integran la estrategia DOTS en el tratamiento de la tuberculosis. Metodología: se hizo una revisión de la literatura en las bases de datos PubMed y Lilacs, empleando los términos: DOTS y tuberculosis. Se incluyeron todos los artículos de revisión en inglés y español con acceso gratuito que incluyeran un abordaje integral a dicha estrategia. Resultados: para el año 2000, 148 países habían adoptado la estrategia DOTS de la OMS para el control de la TB y un 27% de los casos mundiales de TB fueron tratados bajo esta. Aunque apreciable, este progreso no ha sido suficiente. Debido a problemas con los recursos humanos, recortes financieros, infraestructura inadecuada para la atención en salud y falta de abastecimiento seguro de fármacos antituberculosos de buena calidad, la estrategia DOTS no ha logrado un rápido crecimiento. Conclusiones: DOTS es una estrategia adecuada para asegurar la curación de la tuberculosis; sin embargo, son necesarias mayores inversiones económicas que busquen la prevención y adecuado control de esta enfermedad. [Cardona J, Jiménez E, Mejía L.

El conocimiento de las prácticas sexuales en los adultos jóvenes es necesario para ejecutar acciones preventivas enfocadas a la disminución de infecciones de transmisión sexual y embarazos no deseados.  Objetivos: Determinar la prevalencia de uso de condón en la primera relación sexual en estudiantes universitarios. Materiales y métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo trasversal con análisis de casos y controles, en estudiantes universitarios entre 18 y 26 años de edad, el tamaño de la muestra fue de 580 participantes. Resultados: Aproximadamente la mitad de los estudiados refirieron haber usado el condón, durante la primera relación sexual; no se encontró asociación entre el género masculino y el uso del preservativo en la primera relación sexual, similar tendencia se encontró con el estrato y la religión. Al realizar el análisis en la tendencia sexual se encontró que pertenecer al grupo heterosexual está asociado, la cual se mantiene al realizar el ajuste. Conclusiones: El porcentaje de personas que usaron preservativo en su primera relación es bajo, ya que los resultados indican que aproximadamente una de cada dos personas se exponen a infecciones de trasmisión sexual y desarrollo de embarazos no deseados, desde el momento en que se inician en la vida sexual activa. [Martínez J, Parada L, Duarte Kl.

Mulheres à frente no Cerrado e Pantanal: o entrelaçar de força na prática da resistência
Authors: Ziolkowski Nathalia Eberhardt
Published: December 2019

Pela perspectiva feminista que considera a auto-organização das mulheres um instrumento de luta histórica na resistência das desigualdades, este artigo tem por finalidade apresentar o entrelaçar das forças que movimentam mulheres de comunidades tradicionais e populações locais do Cerrado e Pantanal Sul-mato-grossense revelando aspectos que circundam suas vidas no que diz respeito a forma de organização social, territorial, política e econômica. Em um drástico cenário de falta de acesso a direito humanos básicos, exploração e degradação dos recursos naturais, há uma realidade orgânica nos territórios que define estratégias para criação de bem-estar e soberania, frente as condições de pobreza, expropriação e violação de direitos. Esta realidade é composta por ações praticadas por mulheres no auto- reconhecimento de suas identidades e papel político nas comunidades, que ver-se-á a seguir.
Mundos de Mulheres no Brasil: “escrevivendo” uma experiência de construção
Authors: Veiga Ana Maria
Published: December 2019

Os encontros de mulheres das mais diversas, sob o guarda-chuva instrumental dos feminismos, realocam teorias e práticas e provocam uma novidade acadêmica que é social e que acontece em primeira pessoa, no eu e no nós. Ele só pode tomar lugar na criação conjunta e no espaço coletivo, pois, se coalizão passa a ser o termo mais adequado para se chegar à mobilização feminista, isso não se dá sem as perspectivas das sensibilidades, das emoções e da solidariedade, trazidas para o âmbito acadêmico, fazendo transbordar suas margens. Este ensaio trata da realização de um dos maiores eventos transnacionais de aporte feminista, ao mesmo tempo em que situa conceitos que traduzem o entrelaçamento de sujeitos/as que transitam no mínimo entre dois territórios – o acadêmico e o dos ativismos –, estes atravessados por questões específicas de subalternidades e territorialidades não centrais. O evento internacional Fazendo Gênero/Mundos de Mulheres realizado em Florianópolis em 2017 foi construído como resposta às demandas do tempo presente no Brasil, considerando sua inserção latino-americana, as raízes indígenas, negras e populares; as incursões pela matriz africana, passando por encruzilhadas epistemológicas propostas pelas mulheres negras, o pretuguês, o pajubá e outras (in)visibilidades. Por isso a necessidade de virar do avesso esse evento e narrar seus bastidores, defendendo o argumento de que as teorias feministas estão hoje na encruzilhada entre a urgência e a qualidade, buscando desviar daquilo que não seja prática e não se reverta em ação ou fato de transformação social.
Kveenien omakielisen lukemisen traditio ja sen merkitys kielen säilymiselle
Authors: Niiranen Leena
Published: December 2019

This article examines the reading habits of the Kven minority in Norway. Historical sources note that Kvens were able to read in Finnish already in the 18th century. Up to the middle of the 19th century, most books printed in Finnish were religious texts written in Old Literary Finnish. During the Early Modern Finnish period (1820–1870), more secular literature appeared.

Although the Kvens mostly read religious texts, they also read some secular literature. Kvens would gather to read religious books written in Old Literary Finnish in homes following a religious tradition of repetitive reading. It is quite probable that this reading practice had an impact on Kven language maintenance. Extensive reading refers to the reading of many different types of texts. In Finland, extensive reading expanded among common people during the Early Modern Finnish period. By contrast, extensive reading among Kvens was most often conducted in Norwegian.
The two Norwegian official written standards, bokmål and nynorsk. Linguistic and ideological implications of national bilingualism and biliteracy.
Authors: Bull Tove
Published: December 2019

The long-lasting Norwegian history of official biliteracy with two equal written standards has attracted the interest of many scholars, both nationally and internationally. The present paper gives an overview of the historical development more or less similar to what is found in most Norwegian language histories, though with a different perspective. The paper discusses and seeks to answer the following questions: What was the ultimate aim of the language planners in the new independent nation state of Norway after 1814? Did they reach this aim? If not, what was achieved instead?

The historical development of bokmål and nynorsk is explained as well as the present- day linguistic situation in Norway. Practical samples of both language forms are given, and language reforms, which have been important to both written standards, are discussed in chronological order.
Termien selittäminen multimodaalisena toimintana yleistajuisissa tietokirjoissa
Authors: Satokangas Henri
Published: December 2019

The article studies how visual images and their use in explaining field-specific terms can be analyzed with the concept of discourse patterns. When expounding and demonstrating the meaning of specialized terminology in popular non-fiction, different kinds of pictures are utilized to scaffold the reader-in-the-text’s understanding of the meanings of such field-specific terms. In the article, explanation sequences are analyzed as multimodal discourse patterns, where verbal text and images together produce knowledge-constructing interaction. Diverse resources of presenting information (e.g. genre features of written text, coding orientations of visual image) construct the interactive functions of a multimodal text. For example, a technologically oriented image can realize both functions in the introduction–description pattern whereas an image depicting a particular situation can function as an exemplification in the introduction–exemplification pattern. The analysis of discourse patterns aims to examine the ways of representing conceptual knowledge in research popularizations.
Monimuotoinen kielimaisema ja kielellinen hyvinvointi
Authors: Kok Maria , Penttilä Esa , Massinen Henna , Moshnikov Ilja , Tavi Susanna , Tuomainen Laura
Published: December 2019

This introduction article discusses language vitality and language diversity in connection with linguistic well-being, which were the main ideas reflected behind the theme of the AFinLA Autumn Symposium 2018, “Keeping languages alive”. Linguistic well-being is a new concept that addresses the issues related to language policy and linguistic practices within a speech community and how these impact the individual members of that community. Among the main factors behind linguistic well-being we find linguistic human rights, which emphasize, for example, the right for anyone to identify with one or more languages without being discriminated and the right for basic education in one’s own language. These rights are particularly linked to how endangered and minority languages are treated in the society and they can be actively promoted by language policy and education. However, linguistic well- being is not just a matter of minorities but it affects the whole community. The more diverse the language environment and linguistic landscape of a speech community is, the healthier and more affluent the whole community is – both its minority and majority language speakers.
UNDERSTANDING THE GENRE FEATURES OF QUALITATIVE RESEARCH: A CASE STUDY
Authors: Guo Yi-Huey
Published: December 2019

Some researchers’ prejudiced attitude on qualitative research as non-scientific research seems to hinder the development of qualitative research in some Asian social science research communities. Nevertheless, the present study on a qualitative novice’s writing process found that the lowly formulaic style of qualitative research writing could be another reason that impedes such development as well. Novice researchers’ writing tends to follow model-imitation, which contradicts the lowly formulaic style of qualitative research writing. With the employment of a social approach on writing studies as the theoretical framework, this study treated academic writing as an activity influenced by the writer’s situated research community. The writer’s varied research attempts in thesis writing process such as the formulation of research questions, employment of research methods, interpretation of research results, and the like, were treated as his/her composing acts. By longitudinally observing one graduate student’s use of qualitative research in his thesis proposal writing process, the present study discussed the multifaceted nature of qualitative research and the need of teaching/learning qualitative research as a specific genre in academic writing. Related genre elements to be included in teaching qualitative research are addressed.
