Published: June 2023

Introduction: Depression can present a plethora of symptoms, such as loss of pleasure, feelings of guilt, low selfesteem, and disturbed sleep or appetite. Selective Serotonin Re-uptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) are considered as themainstay of treatment for depression. Several studies suggest that antidepressants increase the risk of developingmetabolic complications including Insulin Resistance (IR) and dyslipidemia, thus leading to poor health outcomes.This study would provide a review of depression and IR and examine side effects of anti-depressants that are oftenused to treat depression.Material & Methods: It was a cross-sectional analytical study conducted at the Department of Biochemistry,College of Medicine and Sagore Dutta Hospital, in collaboration with Department of Psychiatry. Patients attendingthe psychiatric OPD, who are newly diagnosed as Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) orrecurrent depressivedisorder were selected. Age and gender matched healthy family members of the patients were chosen as controls.Results: Significant alteration of Body Mass Index (BMI), Hamilton Depression Scaling (HAM-D), High DensityLipoprotein (HDL) and Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL )with non-significant variation of HOMA-IR, TotalCholesterol and Triglyceride levels were found

The Reason Why You Assess The Face Wearing a Mask More Positively
Authors:   The Korean Data Analysis Society, Kwon Youan
Published: June 2023

In the past, wearing a sanitary mask contained negative information. However, as wearing a mask became mandatory after the COVID-19 pandemic, wearing a mask and negative images were halved and reversed, resulting in the so-called “mask fishing effect (the illusion that a face covered by a mask looks more attractive).“ Although several studies have studied the causes of the mask fishing effect, there are some shortcomings in the methodology. so this study attempted to determine the cause of the mask fishing effect by supplementing existing studies. The methodological difference between this study and previous studies is that the current study asked participants to choose an unmasked face among unmasked faces from a masked face. If this unguided choice was a face that had already been rated as attractive by many others, the results would strengthen the existing findings. However, about 50% of participants chose the unmasked face with the soft or kind impression, and only about 38% chose the attractive face. Based on these results, the present study discuss the possible causes of the mask fishing effect.

Published: June 2023

This study sought to derive major leisure motivation, leisure constraints, and leisure satisfaction factors of the elderly, and to find out how leisure motivation and leisure constraints affect leisure satisfaction. The subjects of the study were the elderly using Wonju Senior Welfare Facility, which was conducted as an on-site survey between April 1 and May 30, 2022. A total of 320 copies were distributed, of which 299 were used for data analysis as effective samples. The analysis results are summarized as follows. First, three factors (external motivation factors, no motivation factors, and internal motivation factors) were extracted as leisure motivation, and three factors (structure, intra-personal, inter-personal were extracted for leisure constraints and three factors (family relation satisfaction, environmental satisfaction, and life satisfaction) were drew for leisure motivation factors. Second, the respondents expressed their opinion that they are not satisfied with where they lives and are not satisfied with the space they live in when they have no family or colleagues to share leisure activities or when they want to participate but have no one to help them. In addition, when participating in leisure activities for no particular reason, there was nothing to do, so when participating to eliminate other miscellaneous thoughts, they felt close to their families and relationships with their relatives improved, and they were satisfied with the space and place they lived. In conclusion, practical implications based on the results of this study were proposed

Published: June 2023

The purpose of this study is to analyze how the types of posting or topics that appear on specific topics on portal sites are composed and what differences occur in emotional vocabulary used in relation to them. Especially, in relation to the environment, the topics of content posted on SNS are identified, and the relationship between the topics of these posts and sentiment words sre identified. For this study, topic modeling (LDA) and sentiment analysis on SNS text data, focusing on the keywords of ‘Daejeon’, a large city, and environment'. First, social media data, including the topic and content of postings was collected from blogs, cafes, web documents, and Daejeon local newspapers on portal sites and then preprocessed. Using Python, modeling was performed on the topic of the post, and it was verified whether there was a difference in the emotional vocabulary used for each topic. Using Python, modeling was performed on the topic of the post, and it was tested whether there was a difference in the sentimental word used for each topic. In 2018, it became a big social issue when it became known that radon, a radioactive material, was detected above the standard in a bed sold by a bed company. In addition, as environmental risk factors such as fine dust, asbestos, and air pollution are rapidly increasing, people's interest in the environment is increasing, which is the background of this study. As a result of this study, it was confirmed that there is a significant difference in the positive and negative sentiment words used depending on the topic of the content. It was also interesting to gain a new insight that people are interested in 'healthy food' along with the environment.

Salinity stress is an emerging key factor affecting aquatic animals in coastal waters. In bivalves, physiological responses to anisosmotic conditions are frequently associated with excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, lipid peroxidation processes and alterations of the antioxidant enzyme activity in tissues. In this study, we investigated whether short-time exposure to high (20-40 ‰) or low (6-14 ‰) salinity induces oxidative stress in hemocytes and gills of Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis). Our findings showed that both hypoosmotic and hyperosmotic stress enhanced formation of ROS in hemocytes, which was accompanied by an increase in DNA damage. Experimental acclimation to low salinity (6‰, 10 ‰) led to a decrease of the activity of superoxide dismutase but did not affect catalase activity in gills. Exposure to high salinity (24 ‰) inhibited activities of both antioxidant enzymes, whereas at 30 ‰ activity of both enzymes recovered up to controls. We found that exposure to high salinity was associated with lower risks of oxidative stress in mussels, and changes in redox balance are observed in hemocytes and gills even if the range of salinity changes is in range of species adaptive potential. Taken together, this study suggests that short-time salinity fluctuations promote oxidative stress in bivalves.

Published: June 2023

Introduction. Coxiella burnetii is the causative agent of Q fever, a zoonosis that is usually associated with cattle, sheep, goats and their bodily fluids, mainly milk or amniotic fluid. The disease manifests most commonly as an upper respiratory tract infection or pneumonia, but, in less common cases can lead to endocarditis, hepatitis, meningo-encephalitis and osteomyelitis. In the acute stage, patients usually have a self-limited febrile illness, which can progress to the chronic form of Q fever, most commonly with endocarditis. Endocarditis is the main manifestation of chronic Q fever and it usually affects patients with risk factors, such as prosthetic valves, abnormal native valves or other cardiac disease history, but it can also be seen in patients with no prior medical history, like the one we describe. The diagnosis is confirmed using the same Duke Criteria used in infectious endocarditis, with one major criterion being either a positive blood culture or PCR for C. burnetii, or a positive IgG phase I serological test [>1:6400). The preferred treatment regimen is doxycycline plus hydroxychloroquine, maintained for a minimum of 18 months, along with regular follow-ups for serology testing and side-effects evaluation. Case presentation. We describe the case of a 53-year old male with no medical history who presented in our clinic for a 2-week evolution of fever, chills and weight loss. The physical examination revealed no pathological findings. The trans-esophageal cardiac echography showed small vegetations on the mitral valve and the serological test for Coxiella burnetii was positive, thus allowing us to confirm the diagnosis of Coxiella burnetii endocarditis and start treatment with Doxycycline and Hydroxychloroquine. Conclusions. Coxiella burnetii must be taken into account as a possible diagnosis for culture-negative endocarditis, even in patients with no cardiological medical history and no environmental risk factors.

This clinical case illustrates the diagnosis of a rare congenital pathology – an adult patient with pulmonary arterial hypertension and Abernethy malformation type Ib.

Clinical observation: Patient S., 45 years old, with pulmonary arterial hypertension, was admitted with complaints of shortness of breath during intense physical exertion. Based on the anamnesis morbi, the diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension has been verified since 2017. Results of comprehensive examination: functional status (six-minute walk test), NTpro-BNP level, chest x-ray, echocardiography, right heart catheterization were assessed during the hospitalization. According to these there were signs of the high pulmonary arterial hypertension with systolic pressure in the lung arteries 68-70 mm Hg, extension of the trunk, right and left branches of the pulmonary artery. In order to exclude objective evidence of cardiac dysfunction, portal hypertension, an abdominal ultrasound was performed. We didn’t obtaine the information about an increase in central venous pressure, the presence of signs of portal hypertension, such as ascites, increased pressure in the portal system. However, echo signs of congenital pathology were determined - Abernethy malformation type Ib: porto-caval shunt between the superior mesenteric vein and the inferior vena cava. According to multispiral computed tomography of abdominal organs with contrast: the superior mesenteric vein and splenic vein join to form a short extra-hepatic portal vein which drains into a systemic vein (inferior vena cava). Taking into account the results of risk stratification, the patient underwent an escalation of pathogenetic therapy for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension, and dynamic monitoring was recommended.

Conclusion: The presented clinical case is unique in terms of diagnosing a rare congenital pathology of the hepatic blood flow – Abernethy malformation type Ib in an adult patient with pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Published: June 2023

Geothelphusa dehaani, a freshwater crab species endemic to Japan, has the largest distribution range amongst the 19 known species in the country. Due to its low dispersal capability and restricted habitat to freshwater, it serves as an excellent model for understanding gene flow between geographically isolated populations. In this study, we analysed the genetic relationships of 26 G. dehaani populations collected from different locations in the Japanese archipelago using two mitochondrial DNA regions - cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) and cytochrome b (cytB). Our results from the analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) revealed high genetic variation amongst populations and the phylogenetic analysis identified four geographical groups: Clade I - Honshu and Shikoku, Clade II - north-eastern Kyushu, Clade III - southern Kyushu and Clade IV - north-western Kyushu. Notably, Clade IV exhibited the highest genetic distance amongst the observed groupings. These findings highlight the need for further examination of G. dehaani in Kyushu, including morphological and behavioural traits, to better understand the observed diversity within the species in the region.

Induction of intelligence into molecules by using spinor radiation: an alternative to water memory
Authors: Fioranelli Massimo , Sepehri Alireza , Khan Ilyas , Rathebe Phoka C.
Published: June 2023

By injecting a string of spinors within a membrane, it becomes sensitive to external magnetic fields. Without external magnetic fields, half of the spinors in this string have opposite spins with respect to the other half and become paired with them within membranes. However, any external magnetic field could have a direct effect on this system because a magnetic field could make all spinors parallel. According to the exclusion principle, parallel spinors repel each other and go away. Consequently, they force the molecular membrane to grow. By removing external fields, this molecule or membrane returns to its initial size. An injected string of spinors could be designed so that this molecule or membrane is sensitive only to some frequencies. Particularly, membranes could be designed to respond to low frequencies below 60 Hz. Even in some conditions, frequencies should be lower than 20 Hz. Higher frequencies may destroy the structure of membranes. Although, by using some more complicated mechanisms, some membranes could be designed to respond to higher frequencies. Thus, a type of intelligence could be induced into a molecule or membrane such that it becomes able to diagnose special frequencies of waves and responses. We tested the model for milk molecules like fat, vesicles, and microbial ones under a 1000x microscope and observed that it works. Thus, this technique could be used to design intelligent drug molecules. Also, this model may give good reasons for observing some signatures of water memory by using the physical properties of spinors.

Published: June 2023

Possible complications, such as intestinal obstruction and inflammation of the intestinal tract, can have a detrimental effect on the prognosis after surgery for Hirschsprung disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential targets and mechanisms of action of echinacoside to improve the prognosis of Hirschsprung disease. Genes related to the disease were obtained through analysis of the GSE96854 dataset and four databases: OMIM, DisGeNET, Genecard and NCBI. The targets of echinacoside were obtained from three databases: PharmMapper, Drugbank and TargetNet. The intersection of disease genes and drug targets was validated by molecular docking. The valid docked targets were further explored for their expression by using immunohistochemistry. In this study, enrichment analysis was used to explore the mechanistic pathways involved in the genes. Finally, we identified CA1, CA2, CA9, CA12, DNMT1, RIMS2, RPGRIP1L and ZEB2 as the core targets. Except for ZEB2, which is predominantly expressed in brain tissue, the remaining seven genes show tissue specificity and high expression in the gastrointestinal tract. RIMS2 possesses a high mutation phenomenon in pan-cancer, while a validated ceRNA network of eight genes was constructed. The core genes are involved in several signaling pathways, including the one-carbon metabolic process, carbonate dehydratase activity and others. This study may help us to further understand the pharmacological mechanisms of echinacoside and provide new guidance and ideas to guide the treatment of Hirschsprung disease.

Published: June 2023

Las migraciones han tomado una alta relevancia en el discurso político, cultural y social chileno. Se aborda tal proceso en el país entre los años 2012 a 2017, comprendiendo las estructuras espaciales, distribución, diversidad y la conformación de patrones geográficos a las cuales se les explora su vínculo con ruralidad, ingreso y actividades económicas. Lo anterior se realiza en dos escalas. A nivel regional se determinan los patrones generales de la distribución de los orígenes migratorios, para posteriormente complementarlo mediante un análisis a escala comunal en la cual se establecen 6 clústeres. Los resultados dan cuenta de nuevos orígenes migratorios que rompen con la tendencia de periodos anteriores, la existencia de patrones según la latitud y la variabilidad de los lugares de origen de la población inmigrante, como también en los valores de concentración para estos.

Tal processo é abordado no país entre os anos de 2012 e 2017, incluindo as estruturas espaciais, a distribuição, a diversidade e a conformação de padrões geográficos aos quais se explora sua vinculação com a ruralidade, a renda e as atividades econômicas. Isso é feito em duas escalas. A nível regional, determinam-se os padrões gerais de distribuição das origens migratórias, para posteriormente complementá-los através de uma análise ao nível comunitário em que se estabelecem 6 clusters. Os resultados revelam novas origens migratórias que rompem com a tendência dos períodos anteriores, a existência de padrões consoante a latitude e a variabilidade dos locais de origem da população imigrante, bem como nos valores de concentração para estes. Os itens acima estão associados a níveis de pobreza e segregação e a áreas específicas do setor econômico, como a agricultura.
Aproximación a los procesos de valorización patrimonial y turística de los paisajes del oasis norte de Mendoza: Una propuesta de periodización desde la geografía
Authors: Suden Clarisa
Published: June 2023

El paisaje se presenta como una construcción social dinámica. Es valorizado para distintos fines, entre los cuales se encuentra su puesta en valor patrimonial y turística. Para conocer el modo en que los diversos paisajes del oasis Norte de la provincia de Mendoza se han configurado y evolucionado a través del tiempo, y así poder comprender su relación con los procesos de valorización patrimonial y turística, se propone una periodización o cortes espaciotemporales señalando aquellos hitos o situaciones (políticas, económicas, sociales, etc.) que dejan su impronta en el territorio y obligan a realizar un viraje en su estructuración, disposición y función. Para ello se sigue un esquema hipotético deductivo; se utiliza la metodología de periodizaciones y se combinan técnicas de recolección de datos cualitativas y cuantitativas. Entre los resultados se destacan la preponderancia de los paisajes culturales vinculados con vitivinicultura, la religión, lo urbano y la gesta sanmartiniana.
Provincia, territorio y región. Tres conceptos fundamentales en la formación político-administrativa del estado federal argentino durante los siglos XIX y XX,
Authors: Benedetti Alejandro , Salizzi Esteban
Published: June 2023

Provincia, territorio y región son conceptos geográficos significativos en la historia política de la República Argentina. Los tres sirvieron para dar cuenta del conjunto de partes que, a lo largo del tiempo, se diferenciaron y, a la vez, se ensamblaron para dar forma a la totalidad del país. El presente trabajo analiza su construcción conceptual, en tanto entidades espaciotemporales. Se busca dar cuenta de su emergencia y transformación, a través de la periodización, descripción y examen de los usos y sentidos fundamentales otorgados a cada uno de ellos a lo largo del proceso de formación y consolidación del estado argentino. Se trata de un abordaje basado en la búsqueda, sistematización y análisis de documentos oficiales y bibliografía especializada. Estos conceptos a lo largo de los siglos XIX y XX catalizaron sentidos sobre la unidad nacional, sobre sus diferencias internas, sobre la forma de gobierno federal frente a la opción unitaria, sobre la tensión entre centralización-descentralización, sobre la diferenciación entre hechos sociales y hechos naturales, sobre la relación entre grupos hegemónicos y subalternos, sobre la planificación o el avance de luchas sociales. En conclusión, versan sobre la multiplicidad de formas en las que se han tensionado diferentes intereses en el proceso de formación política del estado federal argentino.
Conflicto social y redención de cautivos por mercedarios y trinitarios en Castilla a fines de la Edad Media (1348-1527)
Authors: Andújar Rodríguez Lucía
Published: June 2023

Al originarse la orden de la Trinidad y la Merced como congregaciones para la redención de cautivos, los reyes de Castilla comenzaron a otorgarles gracias reales para favorecer su labor. Estas concesiones dieron lugar desde temprano a quejas por parte de la población que denunciaba la exigencia de los frailes en materia testamentaria. La problemática dio lugar a toda una legislación que intentaba regularla pero que, en la práctica, no se respetó.
Tras la vida religiosa de un obispado neogranadino: estudio histórico de las constituciones sinodales de 1617 y obispales de 1717 de Popayán
Authors: Abadía Quintero Carolina , Echeverry Pérez Antonio José
Published: June 2023

Este artículo tiene como objetivo principal comprender un mecanismo que integra agentes, discursos, tradiciones jurídicas, problemas y prácticas religiosas en diversidad de contextos y temporalidades: las constituciones emanadas de un sínodo y de la voluntad obispal. Específicamente se trabajarán una constitución sinodal fechada en 1617 y una constitución obispal de 1717, ambas producidas en el obispado de Popayán, con el objetivo de comprender no solo los alcances y las dificultades de este tipo de documentos, sino también las variables referidas a la vida cotidiana, social y religiosa del obispado.

L’enseignement à distance dans l’enseignement supérieur
Authors: Opanasenko Yaroslav , Novikova Viktoriia
Published: June 2023

L’apprentissage à distance est devenu l’une des tendances éducatives les plus en vogue du 21e siècle. La pandémie de COVID-19 et la guerre en Ukraine n’ont fait qu’accélérer le processus de son intégration dans le secteur de l’éducation. L’objectif de notre travail est d’étudier l’influence de l’apprentissage en ligne sur l’adaptation à cette méthode d’enseignement et la réussite académique des étudiant.e.s qui l’utilisent sous ses deux formes, ainsi que de rechercher les améliorations à lui apporter.
Diriger un établissement, entre faire agir les autres et se ménager pour continuer à piloter
Authors: Étienne Richard
Published: June 2023

Ce n’est qu’à la fin du vingtième siècle que la recherche s’intéresse à l’effet-établissement (Grisay, 1990) et, plus précisément, à l’effet-chef d’établissement (Gather Thurler, 1998), car les directions sont alors sommées d’obtenir des résultats, ce qui revient à une transformation radicale de leur rôle jusque-là axé sur le contrôle. Leur action doit s’aligner sur cette mission : faire faire au personnel et aux élèves ce qu’ils ont à faire pour atteindre les objectifs fixés par la hiérarchie. Le chef d’établissement doit se faire à ce faire et endurer ce qu’il lui fait. Nos recherches montrent qu’en fait il est conduit à faire, donc à agir, avec de nombreuses contraintes et de se ménager pour servir et survivre. Quelles ressources peuvent être identifiées pour exercer cette nouvelle forme donnée au métier sans céder au mirage d’un management idéalisé ?
Entre management et leadership : le « pilote » comme figure emblématique de l’activité des chefs d’établissement
Authors: Montandon Christiane , Brégeon Marie
Published: June 2023

Le chef d’établissement, représentant de l’institution scolaire auprès d’une pluralité d’acteurs, apparait comme le cœur névralgique et stratégique de la mise en œuvre de la politique éducative. La complexité de ses missions réside dans des injonctions paradoxales : concilier autonomie des établissements et exigences de performance dans des contextes qui alternent et combinent problématiques locales, territoriales, nationales. A partir d’un corpus de terrain de 12 entretiens de chefs d’établissement de collèges, de lycée général et technologiques, de lycées professionnels, l’article analyse comment des chefs d’établissement et directeurs de Section d’enseignement général et professionnel adapté (SEGPA) appréhendent leur rôle de leader dans la manière de dynamiser et de réguler les interactions entre les différents acteurs de la communauté éducative en s’appuyant sur les médiations groupales que sont les Conseils d’administration (CA), conseils pédagogiques, conseils de discipline, commissions de concertation, etc. Les caractéristiques fondamentales du concept de leadership en psychologie sociale et le rôle des représentations socio-professionnelles des divers membres de l’établissement permettent de comprendre la manière dont un chef d’établissement peut assumer la double dimension administrative et pédagogique de cette fonction d’encadrement. Cette analyse nous incite à privilégier le rôle de leader au lieu de celui de manager, qui renvoie à une conception trop techniciste, pour souligner les dimensions éthiques et politiques qui sous-tendent la figure du « pilote », garant d’un ordre juste respectant des valeurs attendues tant des enseignants que des élèves.
« Faire et se faire » ingénieur-manager
Authors: Ducouret Glenn
Published: June 2023

Les ingénieurs au travail sont régulièrement confrontés à des situations opposant les enjeux de productivité et les enjeux socio-écologiques. Pour statuer sur les questions éthiques qui en découlent et trouver un compromis satisfaisant, ils mobilisent leurs connaissances scientifiques mais également leur subjectivité. Notre article a pour but de proposer des pistes pour comprendre et certifier ce nouvel aspect de la compétence des ingénieurs qui doivent, d’une part, être en mesure de percevoir davantage la dimension humaine du travail et d’autre part, donner des repères à leurs collaborateurs pour mieux appréhender les enjeux de la RSE et adapter leurs pratiques.
Quand la réflexivité s’invite dans un dispositif de simulation
Authors: Léon Xavier , Belleghem Laurent Van
Published: June 2023

Former les ingénieurs et managers de demain, c’est les préparer à agir dans ce que sera le monde du travail et des organisations, en sachant coopérer face aux enjeux complexes (écologie, géopolitique, santé, etc.) de nos sociétés. A partir d’un jeu d’entreprise en école d’ingénieur, cet article propose une analyse compréhensive d’une session réalisée et d’en tirer des enseignements à la fois opératoires et scientifiques. Comment le dispositif, qui permet la simulation d’une expérience sur laquelle une réflexivité devient possible, contribue à développer une posture de professionnel « compétent, pertinent, réflexif et éthique » en devenir ?
La coordination en travail social : un avatar du management transversal
Authors: Triby Emmanuel
Published: June 2023

Cette contribution voudrait répondre à une double question : en quoi la coordination relève-t-elle du management ? Qu’est-ce que cela peut nous apprendre sur la manière dont se pratique, et donc se réfléchit, le travail social aujourd’hui ? L’activité de management est ainsi interrogée de même que la fonction de coordination en émergence dans le champ du travail social, et présentée comme un avatar du management transversal. Pour répondre à la double question initiale, une recherche-formation a été mise en place dans le cadre d’une formation universitaire professionnalisante destinée à des professionnels du secteur social déjà en activité. Les résultats de cette démarche montrent surtout l’extrême diversité des pratiques en la matière, en lien aux contextes traversés autant qu’aux parcours des professionnels impliqués ; la fonction de coordination est ainsi éclairée tant du point de vue des dispositions qu’elle impliquee chez les professionnels que des conditions de possibilité de cette fonction. Une économie de la coordination se dessine, offrant un cadre à un possible apprentissage partagé, par la mise en œuvre de ce management.
