Programa de autopsias virtuales o “virtuopsias” en el Hospital Clínico Universidad de Chile. Un importante eslabón para la generación de nuevo conocimiento y mejoramiento continuo.
Authors: Gómez M. Patricia , Zúñiga G. María Elena
Published: April 2023

Most of today´s medical knowledge of current advances in medicine are based on autopsy findings and patological studies conducted during the 19th century. At the end of the 60s, autopsies began to decline in many countries, for multivariate reasons. Nowadays, autopsies are almost no longer performed unless legal reasons are present. The so important and didactic Pathological Anatomy Meetings are not being held anymore either. These instances played a particularly important role, bringing together and gathering experts and apprentices from different medical areas and disciplines. Unfortunately they have been disappearing from hospitals. However, physicians still seem to need them, as many times there is urgent need to get reliable information about the etiology of thepatients’ symptoms and the ultimate causes that led him or her to death. The relevance of this information for generating new knowledge and proposing new diagnostic or therapeutic tools for continuous improvement, both in the field of healthcare and training is indisputable. Unfortunately, we still face situations in which a patient dies in the midst of many doubts regarding the ultimate cause of death. At the University of Chile Clinical Hospital, a so-called Adverse Event Meetings have been held every Thursday for several years. A lot of time is spent trying to elucidate what could have happened, in an attempt to detect errors that could have been corrected A team of doctors, midwives and nurses, analyze all the adverse events reported, step by step. In spite of this, there are situations where doubts still persist, once the meeting is over. Currents advances in imaging, immune-histochemistry, molecular and genetic study techniques can make possible today to obtain most important information without the need for a traditional autopsy. These technologies, appear then as a substitute for traditional autopsies, since the realization of some of these post-mortem studies would allow to elucidate many diagnostic doubts, improving diagnostic.

Síndrome de hiperémesis por cannabinoides: caso clínico
Authors: Benavides A. Daniela , Valle S. Daniela , Ibáñez P. Carlos
Published: April 2023

Background. The cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome (CHS) was first described in 2004. It is considered as a functional gastrointestinal syndrome characterized by the presence of nausea, severe and cyclic morning vomiting, epigastric abdominal pain, hot water bathing for symptom relief, in patients that use cannabis regularly and has a resolution of the syndrome after cessation of cannabis consumption. Clinical Case. Report of a 29 year old male, with daily consumption of cannabis, with history of intense epigastric abdominal pain and recurrent vomiting that partially responded to the use of antispasmodics. After 4 visits to the emergency department he was hospitalized for study and treatment. Laboratory and image exploration are carried out without positive results for organic disease. Therefore, a functional gastrointestinal syndrome is thought, and a cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome was suspected. A psychiatric evaluation is carried out, diagnosing a cannabis use disorder. Discussion and conclusion. CHS is a syndrome that has been described recently and is not usually considered as a differential diagnosis for patients with hyperemesis. However, the current high prevalence of cannabis consumption, will probably lead to a more frequent presentation of the syndrome at different health providers. Therefore, it is important to diffuse and update the knowledge about this syndrome to recognize it and develop a timely treatment, avoiding medical complications from invasive exploratory methods and the use of unnecessary resources.
Artritis reumatoide y riesgo cardiovascular
Authors: Karsulovic C. Claudio , Guerrero P. Julia , Goecke S. Annelise
Published: April 2023

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most frequent cause of premature death according to data

from the American Heart Association and World Health Organization. Incidence and prevalence are

on the rise. Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is the most common autoimmune disease. It is a chronic and

systemic disease characterized by articular involvement with deformity ranging from persistent

pain to premature disability. CVD is the most frequent cause of death in RA patients, even more

than in diabetes mellitus 2 or chronic kidney disease. Multiple CVD risk scales have been tested in

order to obtain a more accurate prediction of premature death by stroke or myocardial infarction

in RA patients. Most of the scales, even those adjusted including RA features like inflammation

and antibodies titles, have failed to properly predict the real CVD risk. Individually, RA specific

autoantibodies have been related with increased CVD risk and multiple mechanistic explanations

have arisen, generating even a new concept called “Autoimmune Atheromatosis”. Nevertheless,

this association fails to give a full understanding of the accelerated and aggressive atheromatosis

process that RA patients develop. New studies oriented to mechanistic explanations are

necessary in order to develop new diagnostic targets and prevention strategies.

FUNCTIONAL CONSTIPATION IN CHILDREN : A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
Authors: Malanda Yoga
Published: April 2023

It is essential to test and diagnose children as soon as possible for functional constipation (FC), which is considered a substantial burden of illness in children. When treated in a timely manner and with the proper medication, babies who have FC have a better chance of making a full recovery. It is estimated that inflammatory bowel disease is responsible for up to 25% of pediatric gastroenterologist visits and 3% of all pediatric outpatient visits globally. It is difficult to estimate the real prevalence of FC in children as a result of the variability of the studies in terms of target population sample, diagnostic criteria, participant ethnicity and environment, technique of data gathering, and lifestyle and psychological characteristics, amongst other considerations. It is possible that the key causes for the worldwide variation in prevalence among studies that have been published are the absence of consensus on diagnostic criteria and cultural variations. Probiotics have the capacity to improve the balance between species, impact intestinal motility by creating lactic acid and short-chain amino acids, and stimulate gut peristalsis by adjusting stool pH. Additionally, probiotics have the potential to increase the number of short-chain amino acids produced in the body. A wide variety of probiotic strains have been the subject of a significant number of investigations. On the other hand, there are not enough evidence available at this time to support the use of probiotics in children who suffer from chronic constipation.

Authors: SRIVASTAV SHASHANK
Published: April 2023

In India, self-help groups (SHGs) have become a crucial forum for advancing and supporting agriculture. These groups are typically made up of people from rural areas who gather together to share resources and knowledge in order to accomplish shared objectives. The main goal of SHGs in agriculture is to increase the income and productivity of small and marginal farmers, who make up the bulk of Indian farmers. SHGs serve as a link between farmers and other governmental and non-governmental groups that offer farmers technical and financial support. They support farmers in obtaining loans, knowledge about cutting-edge farming methods, and markets for their produce. SHGs help farmers adopt new technology and farming techniques by giving them a forum to exchange experiences and learn from one another. Initiatives have been essential in empowering rural communities and giving farmers sustainable means of subsistence. Overall, SHGs have played a critical role in assisting India's agriculture sector in addressing issues encountered by small and marginal farmers and advancing inclusive and sustainable development in rural areas.

The clear intention of the critique of reason among most modern Arabs was to prove its historicity or historiography so that its meaning and ideological function could be revealed and standing on its borders as a prelude to cutting with it. Therefore, most of them have unanimously agreed to explain the crises and devastation inflicted on the Arab world in modern times by unhistoricity at the level of reason and undemocracy at the level of politics perhaps the biggest concern that has led them to build their own intellectual projects. However, may seem difficult to monitor the contours of optimism by giving firm foundations for reform in the Arab world due to the multiplicity of visions, which were quoted as models for discussing and resolving the crisis among some contemporary thinkers to keep the problematic about the possibility of reaching the choice of the optimal model to solve the crisis. So the problem remains about the possibility of reaching choosing the optimal model for resolving the crisis according to a philosophical vision that seeks to reform reason in its Arab proposition and get out of the current.

Ziziphus rugosa Lam. a member of the Rhamnaceae family, is found in the semi-evergreen forests of the Western Ghat region, India. This plant is used in many traditional formulations owing to its benefits in miscarriage, misconception, syphilis, tachycardia, diarrhea, flatulence, dropsy, skin diseases, boils, mouth ulcer and hysteria. Successive extracts of Z. rugosa Lam. leaves were prepared using solvents of increasing polarity ranging from petroleum ether (60-80 °C) to water using the Soxhlet extraction method. The methanol extract of the leaves was used to prepare alkaloid rich fraction as per reported method and the total alkaloid content determined by UV-Vis spectroscopy. The extracts and the ARF were screened for antibacterial activity using selected Gram positive and Gram negative bacterial strains and ciprofloxacin as the reference standard. HR-LCMS was performed to identify the phytoconstituents present in the alkaloid rich fraction. Phytochemical studies of the extracts indicated the presence of tannins, phenolics, alkaloids, saponins, flavonoids and glycosides. The antimicrobial screening data indicated the extracts to exhibit concentration dependent inhibition of the test bacteria. The alkaloid rich fraction exhibited the best activity, significantly better than the solvent extracts across the selected panel of bacteria. The methanol and aqueous extracts showed moderate activity while the dichloromethane, pet ether and the ethyl acetate extracts were weakly active. HR-LCMS studies of the alkaloid rich fraction indicated the presence of several alkaloids detected for the first time in this plant. The observed bioactivity and traditional use warrants more investigations on this plant that would result in isolation and identification of new actives from this plant of immense traditional utility and maximizing its spectrum of utility.

Authors: PÉREZ-CIRIA Leticia , RIPOLL Guillermo , SANZ María Á. , BLANCO Mireia , LATORRE Maria A.
Published: April 2023

Aim of study: To evaluate the effect of the type of male castration (surgical vs. immunological) on the characteristics of Teruel dry-cured hams.
            Area of study: Teruel and Zaragoza (Spain).
            Material and methods: A total of 14 dry-cured hams from Duroc × (Landrace × Large White) male pigs intended for the Spanish Protected Designation of Origin ˈTeruel hamˈ were used. Half of them belonged to surgical castrated males (SCM) and the other half to immunocastrated males (IM). Ham weight losses during processing, physical and chemical characteristics were analyzed.
            Main results: There were no differences (p>0.05) due to the type of castration in ham weight losses throughout processing, thickness of subcutaneous fat, marbling, maximum stress and intramuscular fatty acid profile. However, hams from IM presented lower (p<0.05) chroma than those from SCM. The type of castration had limited influence on chemical composition; only potassium nitrate and retinol contents were affected (p<0.05), being lower in IM than in SCM. For volatile compounds, IM showed lower (p<0.05) percentages of total alcohols and sulfur compounds and higher (p=0.012) proportion of total acids than SCM. All the hams had negligible androstenone content but IM presented higher (p<0.05) skatole and indole concentrations than SCM, being these levels low.
            Research highlights: The type of castration in male pigs seems to have scarce influence on the quality of Teruel dry-cured hams, and therefore, immunocastration could be considered as a possible alternative to surgical castration.

Authors: Yang Natalie
Published: April 2023

Misogyny, which refers to the misrepresentation and degrading of women as reflected in an aversion to femininity, feminism, and things associated with women, is an important maintenance of the patriarchy society. Misogyny is described as a disease in Chinese, however, granted that the translation describes it as something needed to be correct, East Asia cultural circle as a whole oftentimes neglect the importance of it since women get so used to being treat in a misogynistic manner by both men and women even though it could be the main source of threat to womens right in the workplace and homestead. The fact that women are also susceptible to misogyny making it unnoticeable is worth to research as this type of misogyny between women is the advance version of the reproductive competition driven by natural desire, however, circumventing is type of same-sex loath is possible, and beneficial to gender equality. To this end, searching for the manifestation of misogyny existing in the same-sex relationship is one of the biggest targets of this paper as well. Inspired by the motive of Tomohiro Kato for executing the Akihabara Massacre, this paper was written in attempt to answer serval questions of why both men and women are susceptible to misogyny; why misogyny is so entrenching; how does misogony pass on from parents to daughters; what are the manifestation of misogyny in literatures; how to get rid of misogyny or make it less susceptible.

Authors: Yang Bo
Published: April 2023

Aiming to understand the connections between STEM and STEAM education, and why using STEAM can be more creative for students, this review analyzes literature on STEM and STEAM especially as applied to mathematics and music education. The research questions are (a) why creativity in STEM is important; (b) How to relate STEM with arts (STEAM); and (c) Why STEAM is important in foresting students creativity. STEM - Science, Mathematics, Engineering, and Technology - was launched as an initiative by the National Science Foundation (NSF) (Hasanah, 2020). STEM education has attracted much attention in recent years, but how to teach STEM in a way which fosters creativity is unclear. However, STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) education provides a potential way to foster students creativity and innovation during teaching and learning STEM (Liao, 2016). This study explores the literature on limitations of teaching creativity in STEM and why it is important to relate arts (STEAM) in STEM education. The findings of this study show that STEM can be more effective when related with arts, but the practical strategies as articulated in the extant literature are still limited.

Teens Being Tricked: What Are Chinese Teenagers Perceptions of Disinformation & Why Do They Believe In It?
Authors: Zheng Tingwen
Published: April 2023

Nowadays, have seen any teenagers without any social media accounts and sources of information? The answer would probably be a no or barely. Especially for teenagers, the problem of disinformation may be amplified. This work uses surveys and research to find out about how Chinese teenagers, age 13-18 view disinformation. The results show that Chinese teenagers are too confident about their ability to being able to identify the disinformation hidden in the facts. Furthermore, this is because of the general trend that people are using less and less time to process, or even receive, the information so that they wouldnt be able to think about the information thoroughly before deciding whether its true or not. This work explores the specific ethnicity, providing context that authors can use for their own research.

Self-control Training for Young Children
Authors: Lu Yihan
Published: April 2023

Childrens self-control is closely related to future success. We experimentally test whether self-control can be trained by reminders from parents. We find that participating children are very patient, and that the differences between short-run and long-run choices are insignificant. Surprisingly, according to our experiments, we also find that parental education makes children seem less patient. High baseline level of patience and adverse psychology could be two potential explanations for the negative effect of reminders from parents.

Published: April 2023

Test anxiety among high school students and its influencing factors have been widely concerned by researchers from all walks of life and various fields. While parental expectations are a remarkable family environment element affecting text anxiety of high school students, academic self-efficacy, as an individual factor, has a more direct impact on test anxiety. The research explores the correlation model between parents expectations and text anxiety using parental expectations as a family environment factor and academic self-efficacy as an individual factor, to reveal the mechanism of parental expectations and academic self-efficacy affecting test anxiety of high school students. In the research, select 420 students from high school as subjects using a cluster sampling way. The Parental Expectations Scale, Test Anxiety Scale, and Academic Self-Efficacy Scale were used to conduct questionnaire surveys and structural equation model analysis was used for data analysis. The results showed: (1) High school students parental expectations can indirectly influence test anxiety via the mediation of academic self-efficacy; (2) Academic self-efficacy mediates the association between parental expectations and text anxiety; (3) Parental expectations and test anxiety, academic self-efficacy, self-efficacy of academic competence, and efficacy of academic conduct were significantly and positively correlated; (4) test anxiety, academic self-efficacy and academic competence efficacy were significantly negatively correlated.
Analysis of Hartmut Rosa's Critical Theory of Social Acceleration
Authors: Zeng Lisa
Published: April 2023

As human beings enter post-modern society, social life is highly fluid and tends to accelerate constantly, and therefore acceleration has become an issue of focus for various disciplines. This paper first explores the main components of Frankfurt School critical theorist Hartmut Rosa's theory of social acceleration: the connotation of acceleration theory, the inner mechanism, the way to produce new alienation, and the way to solve alienation, and summarizes and sorts out the theoretical results. Secondly, this paper compares the ideas of Rosa with those of the first three generations of Frankfurt School philosophers to find out the similarities and differences between Rosa and the Frankfurt School. Finally, the paper presents a critical view of the solution "resonance" proposed by Rosa to the acceleration of capitalist society and proposes a solution based on the Marxist position. It attempts to make a preliminary exploration of how to transcend the phenomenon of capitalist acceleration in order to better understand the secret of social acceleration.
The Factors and Benefits of HPV Vaccination on Males
Authors: Liang Yutao
Published: April 2023

A common globally infection source transmited by sex is human papillomavirus (HPV) , and vaccines are an effective means of suppression. Although men have played an essential role in HPV transmission, low vaccination intention of the male has been found. Studies of male HPV vaccination acceptance have focused on exploration variables to research predictors that influence the willingness. Most studies have involved only a few variables and lack systematic integration. The report explored cues to actions, perceived barriers, and advantages of male vaccination issues from the perspective of factors influencing male HPV vaccination by reviewing the literature. The study found that cues to actions containing the parents' attitude, the media and health care workers as the source and its narrative, the acceptance of their peers, coverage of health insurance, as well as the benefits of prevention as the primary purpose are closely associated with vaccination. Low levels of knowledge, low degree of risk perception, shame, and skepticism might interfere with male vaccination as the main blocks. This result would be conducive to the targeted promotion of HPV jab and the rise of the vaccination rate among men of the appropriate age.
A Study of the Theoretical Framework, Influencing Factors and Interventions for Social and Emotional Learning in Preschool Children
Authors: Dang Haowen
Published: April 2023

Social and emotional learning is one of the crucial areas of preschool children's subsequent learning and lifelong development. In this paper, we used the literature review method to study the SEL of preschool children from three aspects: theoretical basis, influencing factors and interventions. Specifically, the theoretical framework of SEL mainly divided into three types, namely the five-dimensional, the six-dimensional and the seven-dimensional theoretical framework, which provide theory for the concept and dimensions of SEL. Based on ecosystem theory, it is found that three main factors of individual (gender, age, personality traits), family (family background, parenting behavior, the quality of parent-child interaction) and school (teachers, peers) have impact on SEL. Combined with the influencing factors, this paper proposes the individual and group interventions as the main interventions on improving SEL. This paper provides theoretical foundation for the future research on SEL of preschool children.
Criticism on Implementation of Zero Tolerance Policy in Schools
Authors: Lin Fangziyu
Published: April 2023

Scientific research is increasingly showing the drawbacks and potential ill effects of zero tolerance policies on students. This article presents criticisms of the zero tolerance policy in four main areas: ambiguous definitions, exaggerated claims, abuses, and harmfulness. There is also a serious disparity in the treatment of racially diverse students under zero tolerance policies. It is important that schools that are still using punitive policies such as zero tolerance policies pay attention to these voices of accusation and make some adjustments in the context of the school. These criticisms and recommendations are intended to create a healthy and harmonious campus environment and to promote the physical and mental development of students.

Authors: Ye Wanting , Zhong Wuxi
Published: April 2023

In terms of the application of Project-based learning (PBL) in China, there are some applications of combining PBL with study travel. This paper analyzes the advantages of PBL application, including stimulating students' interests, enhancing cooperative spirits in teams, and cultivating interdisciplinary thinking and problem-solving abilities. Besides, there are some challenges when applying PBL into the context of study travel, including teachers and students lack of knowledge base and comprehensive literacy, mere formality and imperfect operation system, low overall quality, and difficulties in assessments. Therefore, this paper poses corresponding solutions to overcome these challenges. For future development, PBL in China is to further publicize and promote the advantageous role of PBL in the study travel practice of China, establish and facilitate the operation of China's study travel, and improve the comprehensive quality of teachers in China.
The Influence of School Climate on Reading Literacy: A Cross-cultural Comparative Study Based on pisa 2018 Database
Authors: Zhang Qin
Published: April 2023

Despite considerable interest in research and practice in the effect of school climate on academic reading achievement, little is targeted at analyzing the generalizability and distinctiveness of the influence from various dimensions in a cross-cultural study. This research adopted the multilevel linear model (HLM) and the database of PISA 2018 (Program for International Student Assessment) to investigate the constructs of school climate perceived by two specific groups of school stakeholders, students and principals, in four countries/regions, including B-S-J-Z [China], Brazil, Switzerland and the United States. The results indicated that some dimensions of school climate, such as disciplinary climate, teacher-directed instruction, teacher enthusiasm and student competition, were positively associated with the learning outcomes of reading with a statistical significance and demonstrated the cross-cultural consistency. However, some dimensions, consisting of teacher feedback, bullying and principal-perceived student hindering learning behavior, could exert a negative impact on reading achievement. Moreover, under the diverse sociocultural contexts, some dimensions may reveal different influences, showing the intercultural differences. These indicators were teachers stimulation of reading engagement, adaptive instruction, sense of belonging at school, student cooperation and parental involvement in school activities. Last, teacher support and principal-perceived teacher hindering learning behavior had no effect on reading literacy.

Project-based learning (PBL)originated in the 1950s and has been widely applied to the education field. After reviewing previous research, this paper found that in input classes: 1) The ability to retrieve and read academic papers, critical thinking, analytical abilities, team organization and coordinated ability of students have been shown to improve. 2) There are still existing weaknesses such as task building and requirements on basic English level. In output classes, the paper found that: 1) The reading skills of undergraduates enhanced and the ability to use vocabulary and grammar correctly gained great progress. 2) Learners lack of motivation is still a problem. Moreover, this paper also provided some possible research directions for future PBL studies, and they could address some solutions or could develop comparative studies of PBL application in different countries. In this paper, college English classes in China will be divided into input classes and output classes. The ability to retrieve and read academic papers, critical thinking, analytical abilities, team organization and coordinated ability of students have been shown to improve, but there are also existing weaknesses such as tasking building and requirements on basic English level in the PBL applied input English courses in Chinese colleges. Likewise, the application of PBL in output classes has shown that not only have the reading skills of undergraduates enhanced, but the ability to use vocabulary and grammar correctly has also gained great progress. However, learners lack of motivation is still a problem, according to which there are also solutions at the end of this paper trying to solve the existing problems found in the application of the PBL model in Chinese English courses.
