Estética, forma y transmisión
Authors: Bedoya Restrepo Juliana
Published: February 2023

La interrogación frente a la forma y su carácter estético nos conduce a indagar acerca de sus definiciones y precisiones substanciales, en primera instancia se hace referencia al concepto de estética comprendido como factor inherente al comportamiento humano, en la medida en que el hombre vivencia su experiencia estética desde la intervención de los sentidos y la percepción al estar en contacto con determinada manifestación estética, entendida esta última no sólo como producto artístico o elemento dotado de belleza, sino que puede abordase desde ámbitos como lo fisiológico, técnico, social y figurativo. Y la forma, entendida como exteriorización y producto del hombre, puede considerarse como "objeto simbólico", dada su condición de transmisor de mensajes y portador de significados; y específicamente catalogada como significante si se tiene en cuenta su carácter material, siendo implícito con ello el hecho de la transmisión.

Wild Smoke: Managing Forest Pollution in Northern British Columbia since 1950
Authors: JORGENSON MICA
Published: February 2023

Almost every year, ash drifts from forest fires in north-western Canada into northern Europe, altering forecasts on both continents, settling in Antarctic ice and turning the skies over the world’s major cities an apocalyptic orange. As smoke drifts from the forests into nearby communities and distant urban centres, it becomes the medium through which most people experience forest fire, leaving traces on memories and bodies. Although wildfires and their associated plumes are getting worse, people have a long and dynamic relationship with forest fire smoke which can be understood through the lens of air pollution and forestry history. Using British Columbia, Canada as a case study, I argue that the difficulty of separating wildfire smoke from other types of air pollution has worked to the advantage of land managers interested in supporting the forestry industry, with negative impacts for northern communities.
More Human Than All Too Human: Challenges in Machine Ethics for Humanity Becoming a Spacefaring Civilization
Authors: Du Plessis Guy
Published: February 2023

It is indubitable that machines with artificial intelligence (AI) will be an essential component in humans’ quest to become a spacefaring civilization. Most would agree that long-distance space travel and the colonization of Mars will not be possible without adequately developed AI. Machines with AI have a normative function, but some argue that it can also be evaluated from the perspective of ethical norms. This essay is based on the assumption that machine ethics is an essential philosophical perspective in realizing the aim of humanity becoming a spacefaring civilization. In this essay, I explore two questions in the field of machine ethics, that I believe to be relevant to the role AI will play in long-distance space travel. The first is, should moral theory be extended to include machines with AI, and second, can machines be fully ethical agents? Machines have a normative function, but some argue that they can also be evaluated from the perspective of ethical norms. In this essay, I define AI and then discuss the difference between implicit, explicit and full ethical agents in relation to machines with AI. I then present the argument that the inclusion of moral theory is essential in the development of machines with AI. Without an adequate inclusion of moral theory in the design of AI it may pose an existential threat to humanity, especially in the development of super-intelligent machines. I also highlight that conceptual clarity is essential in the field of machine ethics and the choice of the conceptual foundation that informs AI research and development has ethical implications, especially in the case of super-intelligent machines. This essay is an exploratory and speculative philosophical analysis of certain aspects of machine ethics relevant to long-distance space travel and does not attempt to provide definitive answers to the questions posed in the essay, but instead aims to bring attention to what I deem important considerations.

Background and Objective: Zinc deficiency plays an essential role in mood disorders, such as depression, at different stages of life. This study aimed to investigate the effect of zinc supplementation on depression in children with cancer Materials & Method: This study is a clinical trial conducted on 69 children with cancer. First, the serum zinc level was measured, and the patients completed the Maria Kovacs children’s depression inventory (CDI). Patients with low zinc levels were treated with zinc supplements for one month. Next, they completed the Maria Kovacs CDI, and their serum zinc levels were measured again. The depression score was evaluated and recorded with CDI, and the data were statistically analyzed. Results: The children’s average initial serum zinc level was 77.28 ±25.60 μg/dL, and after the intervention, it was 81.25±26.35 μg/dL. The serum zinc levels before and after the intervention were not significantly different (P=0.126). A total of 8.69% of children suffered from depression. The zinc serum levels in depressed and non-depressed children were not significantly different (P=0.827). Conclusion: This study showed that zinc deficiency is prevalent in all children with cancer, and after the intervention with a standard dose of zinc, no significant change occurred in the level of zinc in the patients. In addition, this intervention did not change the level of depression of these patients. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct more studies to treat these children with a different dose or treatment period.

Background and Objectives: Cutaneous leishmaniasis is one of the most important health-threatening diseases in Iran and other countries. Glucantime is currently used to treat this disease, but due to its side effects and high resistance, alternative therapies such as the use of nanoparticles have been considered by researchers. This study aims to investigate the anti-leishmania activity of silver nanoparticles on Leishmania major in vitro. Methods: This is an experimental study on the anti-leishmania activities of silver nanoparticles at different concentrations of 0.75-0.96 µg/ml after 24, 48 and 72 hours of exposure to 106 live Leishmania major promastigotes. The numbers of live parasites were counted by Trypan Blue on a neobar slide using optical microscope (Hemocytometer method). Glucantime and distilled water were considered as positive and negative controls, respectively. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) was calculated by SigmaPlot™ software, v‌ersion 13. All reactions were done three times and their average was considered as final result. Results: All concentrations of silver nanoparticles had anti-leishmania activity, where the concentration of 96 µg/ml had the highest effect (100%) 72 hours after exposure. The IC50 was obtained 36.67, 27.2 and 21.08 µg/ml after 24, 48 and 72 hours of exposure, respectively. Conclusion: Silver nanoparticles have an inhibitory effect on the growth of Leishmania major in different concentrations. However, further in-vivo studies are needed to determine the effictivness of silver nanoparticles.

Authors: Moura Carolina Regina de Melo
Published: February 2023

Este artigo tem o objetivo de apresentar as mudanças de comportamento das mulheres que consomem diariamente conteúdo do Instagram. Estudos informam que as “selfies” têm inspirado jovens em busca de cirurgias plásticas e procedimentos estéticos. Frente a este cenário, busca-se compreender de que forma o aplicativo prejudica a saúde mental de suas usuárias, fazendo-as recorrer a intervenções cirúrgicas e se submeterem a procedimentos estéticos. Para tanto, recorre-se à bibliografia sobre plataformas digitais, Instagram e pesquisas recentes sobre cirurgias plásticas. Como resultado, percebe-se uma procura por estereótipos de beleza (pele lisa, nariz fino, lábios volumosos, magreza) reconhecidos e desejados pelas usuárias. A metodologia utilizada foi o estudo e análise de textos e materiais de alguns autores que contribuem para a relevância do assunto. Definições e algumas citações foram expostas a fim de elucidar argumentos e contribuir para o estudo. Como resultados dessa análise, pode-se citar que há um crescimento na procura de cirurgiões plásticos e profissionais estéticos por parte das mulheres para realizar tais mudanças citadas a fim de proporcionar um padrão referente ao do Instagram. Conclui-se que a comparação pode gerar insatisfação às mulheres, levando-as à baixa autoestima.

Published: February 2023

The experience of many global companies has proven that it is possible to achieve high results and operational efficiency when implementing competitive strategies. However, there is still no clear systematization of classification features and a single algorithm for forming a competition strategy at enterprises. The article examines the theoretical aspects of competitive strategy by revealing the essence of this concept, highlighting the main approaches to its formation and the conditions for its implementation at enterprises. It has been established that under current conditions, the international market is characterized by a fairly high level of competitive relations, so only those companies that widely implement competitive strategies in their activities can achieve high results and efficiency. The main principles of competitive strategy formation, proposed by McKinsey researchers, are analyzed and the basic characteristics of these principles are highlighted. The position of the two main classical concepts and classification of strategies, proposed by famous scientists M. Porter and F. Kotler, is revealed, and their advantages and disadvantages are highlighted. A matrix of competition according to M. Porter was formed, in which ways of effective development are highlighted: minimization of production costs and differentiation of the product range. At the same time, companies independently choose the direction of strategy implementation, covering the market as a whole or its individual share. The theoretical analysis of types of competitive strategies according to M. Porter made it possible to develop a classification grouping regarding the advantages and disadvantages of each strategy. The characteristic features of market strategies according to F. Kotler are considered: market leader; challenger; follower; market niche and found out that the basis of these strategies is the company's marketing position on the market. The conducted research showed that there is no clearly defined methodology for the process of choosing a competition strategy, so the company should proceed from real market positions, taking into account its strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats. The experience of implementing specific competitive strategies in foreign companies has been studied.

It is shown that the purpose of the analysis and audit of deposit and credit operations of a banking institution is to assess the effectiveness of a complex system of accounting and internal control, the profitability of certain types of deposits and loans, customers, banking products, etc., which ensures the financial stability of the bank, optimization of interest income and expenses, etc. A state of emergency is a special legal regime that can be temporarily introduced in Ukraine or in some of its localities in the event of emergency situations of man-made or natural nature not lower than the national level. The purpose of its introduction is to eliminate the threat and eliminate especially severe man-made or natural emergencies as soon as possible, normalize the situation, restore law and order in the event of attempts to seize state power or change the constitutional order through violence. On the basis of a critical assessment of the current regulatory acts, it was established that in a state of emergency, the head of a banking institution must take measures to ensure proper protection and preservation of assets, seals, stamps of the bank, other valuables, accounting information on bank operations, primary documents and accounting registers, etc. On the day preceding the introduction of the state of emergency, the balances of synthetic and analytical accounting accounts are recorded. During the validity of the specified period, accounting can be carried out both in an automated form and in manual mode. After the end of the state of emergency, the banking institution must resume accounting using computer technology.

Published: February 2023

The article examines the impact of global challenges on the national IT market and the peculiarities of the adaptation processes of Ukrainian IT companies in wartime conditions. The purpose of the article is to analyze the adaptation processes of Ukrainian IT companies, their evaluation in the context of Russian aggression and the progressive economic crisis in the West. The article used general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, systematization and comparison of data. The authors analyzed the domestic and export revenue of national IT companies in crisis conditions. The positive and negative factors of adaptation processes of Ukrainian IT companies in the conditions of war are determined. The article notes the significant role of target markets of companies in the context of choosing appropriate adaptation processes in crisis conditions. Ukrainian IT companies, particularly those focused on foreign markets, suffered minor consequences during the war, most companies managed to quickly adapt to new conditions and maintain a relatively stable level of work and growth. Such a segment of the IT market as freelance has prospects to increase the share of its presence in the market almost twice due to the termination of work with Russian and Belarusian developers of most of the leading freelance platforms and customers. A SWOT-analysis of the development of the national IT market was carried out. The vast majority of national IT companies successfully coped with the challenges of the war, in particular, due to the high mobility of IT specialists. The importance of intensification of state efforts and the adoption of special programs for the support of IT companies, for which the local market is the main one, was determined. Prospective directions for the development of the Ukrainian IT market in view of global and local challenges are proposed. It is emphasized that the main drivers of maintaining the profitability of the IT sector should be relevant state programs.

The article presents the analysis of the framework of evaluation and monitoring tools for use within the framework of a program-oriented approach. The typical coordinate systems of the approach are developed; The linkage of strategies within the framework of the approach with the levels of results is shown. A description of the method of reversible construction of structural-logical elements of a management matrix is presented. An overview of the most relevant management, monitoring and evaluation tools is presented in the framework of the approach. Two key groups of analytical and management modules of the Program-oriented approach (POA) have been identified. It was found that application modules for the implementation of important elements of the POP are either an index with an accompanying matrix of management actions, or a plan-matrix. The authors point out that the matrix of the indicator assumes that it is possible to add a guiding action to each gradation of each measure, as well as to combine certain guiding actions or provide correction factors in case of their exclusion, partial crossing or simplification. According to the authors, in general, the Program-oriented approach (POA) can be presented as two groups of analytical and management modules. A large complex called "analysis and planning", on the one hand, is a giant based on a whole layer of data experience and cyclic dependencies of cycles and periods of strategic planning. And on the other hand, there is a similar "super-machine" called "implementation via a program mechanism" – whose structures, systems and processes have a large number of specializations and superstructures of project management, attracting resources, managing people, ensuring sustainability, obtaining acquired experience and lessons, elements of development intervention and are measured by different groups of indices. The authors further conclude that management tools within the framework of the program-oriented approach are a management superstructure on the plan and on the matrix of resources and results. These are application modules for the implementation of important elements of the POP, which is a tool of the manager, as well as a specialist in monitoring and evaluation. Technically, these tools are either an index with an accompanying action matrix or a matrix plan.

The article examines the algorithm of small and medium business reputation management in the field of services (hotels, business service agencies, companies, etc.), and examines how business creates identity and builds reputation and PR communication to exist in a competitive market. In this research, communicative identity is considered as the basis for employee identification with the organization. The practical principles of research of public relations, consumer as a type of management activity are analyzed. Existing communication relations with the external public as a system of proposed ideas that have found their application in PR communication are considered. The communication processes involved in small and medium business are generalized. PR-communication as a way and relations in the management of communication flows, which reflects the mechanisms of organizations, to enter society to create an effective system of information exchange, finding consumers of goods and services and providing and establishing public relations.

Water from the Blyderiver dam in the Mpumalanga province, South Africa is used for gravity-fed irrigation. Biofilm development in the pipelines causes an increase in pipeline surface roughness, reduced hydraulic capacity, and water delivery below design capacity. The role of manganese (Mn) concentration on biofilm development is of interest, since the water is currently extracted at depth near the bottom of the reservoir (45–50 m when full) where high Mn levels were measured during four sampling events over 2 years. In the water body, dissolved oxygen (DO) and Mn concentrations showed a strong, inverse correlation, with rapid decrease in DO at increased depth, mirrored by an increase in total and soluble Mn. The depth of this inflection point correlated with the reservoir's water level. DO concentrations typically remained constant between 8 and 9 mg l−1 in the upper regions of the water column, followed by a rapid decline to lower than 2 mg l−1 at deeper zones. Similarly, Mn concentrations remained constant with increasing depth, ranging between 10 and 100 μg l−1, followed by a rapid increase once the depth is reached where DO levels started to decline, to 8,631 μg l−1 near the bottom. In the main, 1.5 m diameter pipeline, Mn concentrations decreased with distance; from 8,631 μg l−1 at the extraction point to 134 μg l−1 at 23 km downstream in the bulk aqueous phase, while in the biofilm biomass, Mn concentrations decreased from 30105.4 mg kg−1 at 4.5 km to 23501.9 mg kg−1 at 12.5 km, and 13727.7 mg kg−1 at 28.4 km downstream. This decrease in Mn concentration with distance suggests that biofilm accumulation has not yet reached a steady state. The aesthetic and operational problems caused by manganese in drinking water systems is well-documented, with biological removal gaining increasing interest as alternative to physical and chemical removal strategies. This study showed that the microbial processes that are being harnessed in drinking water treatment, i.e., Mn accumulation through biofilm formation supported by Mn cycling in sand filters, may have undesirable consequences in bulk water distribution systems by causing notable reduction in flow.
Pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) as endocrine disrupting contaminants (EDCs) in South African surface waters

Published: February 2023

Globally, water resources are under constant threat of being polluted by a diverse range of man-made chemicals, and South Africa is no exception. These contaminants can have detrimental effects on both human and wildlife health. It is increasingly evident that several chemicals may modulate endocrine system pathways in vertebrate species, and these are collectively referred to as endocrine disrupting contaminants (EDCs). Although the endocrine-disrupting effect of water pollutants has been mainly linked to agricultural pesticides and industrial effluents, other pollutants such as pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are largely unnoticed, but also pose a potentially significant threat. Here we present for the first time in a South African context, a summarised list of PPCPs and other EDCs detected to date within South African water systems, as well as their possible endocrine-disrupting effect in-vitro and in-vivo. This review addresses other factors which should be investigated in future studies, including endocrine disruption, PPCP metabolites, environmental toxicology, and antibiotic resistance. The challenges of removing EDCs and other pollutants at South African wastewater treatment works (WWTWs) are also highlighted. The need for focused research involving both in-vitro and in-vivo studies to detect PPCPs in water systems, and to delineate adverse outcome pathways (AOPs) of priority PPCPs to aid in environmental impact assessment (EIA), are discussed.

With the risks associated with healthcare-associated infections and the rise of antibiotic resistant microorganisms, there is an important need to control the proliferation of these factors in hospitals, retirement homes and other institutions. This work explores the development and application of a novel class of sulfonamide-based quaternary ammonium antimicrobial coatings, anchored to commercially and clinically relevant material surfaces. Synthesized in high yields (60–97%), benzophenone-anchored antimicrobials were spray-coated and UV grafted onto plastic surfaces, while silane-anchored variants were adhered to select textiles via dip-coating. Surface modified samples were characterised by advancing contact angle, anionic dye staining, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy. After verifying coating quality through the above characterization methods, microbiological testing was performed on batch samples in conditions that simulate the natural inoculation of surfaces and objects (solid/air) and water containers (solid/liquid). Using the previously established Large Drop Inoculum (LDI) protocol at solid/air interfaces, all treated samples showed a full reduction (105–107 CFU) of viable Arthrobacter sp., S. aureus, and E. coli after 3 h of contact time. Additional testing of the walls of plastic LDPE vials treated with a UV-cured sulfonamide antimicrobial at a solid/liquid interface using the newly developed Large Reservoir Inoculum (LRI) protocol under static conditions revealed a complete kill (>106 reduction) of Gram-positive Arthrobacter sp., and a partial kill (>104 reduction) of Gram-negative E. coli within 24–48 h of contact.
