ResumoEsta pesquisa realiza uma abordagem sobre a influência da marca e de seus atributos na escolha de cosméticos, proporcionando a oportunidade de análise de todo um conjunto de associações positivas ao produto, e a sua consequente aceitação por parte do público consumidor, que se traduz em resultados como: aceitação, satisfação e benefícios. O objetivo consiste em verificar o efeito do número de itens associados à marca de cosméticos na preferência de escolha, analisando se os reforços utilitários ou informativos podem influenciar na escolha da marca. O método de coleta de dados se trata de uma pesquisa de campo com os universitários de disciplinas eletivas, em que na primeira fase foi aplicado um questionário sociodemográfico para 66 alunos e, na segunda fase, 12 desses alunos responderam um questionário online. Foi utilizada a pesquisa bibliográfica e explicativa, abordando sobre marketing, comportamento do consumidor e o Modelo da Perspectiva Comportamental da Compra e Consumo (BPM). A análise sugeriu que a variável história de aprendizagem foi proeminente em ambos os grupos e fases do estudo, assim como as características na escolha das marcas são mais voltadas para reforços utilitários na escolha subsequente dos reforços informativos, e que o número de alternativas não teve grande relevância na escolha, sendo importante ressaltar que as experiências anteriores prevaleceram no momento da escolha. Palavras-chave: Consumidor. Escolha. Marca. AbstractThis research approaches the influence of the brand attributes on the cosmetics choice, providing an opportunity to analyze a whole set of positive associations of a product, and its consequent acceptance by the consumers , which translates the results related to acceptance, satisfaction and benefits. The objective is to verify the effect of items number associated with cosmetic brand in choice preference, analyzing whether utilitarian or informative reinforcements can influence the brand’s choice. The data collection method was a field research with students. In the first phase, a socio-demographic questionnaire was applied to 66 students and in the second phase 12 of these students answered an online questionnaire. A bibliographic and explanatory research was used about marketing, consumer behavior and The Behavioral Perspective Model of Purchase and Consumption (BPM). The analysis suggested that learning history was prominent in both groups and phases of the study, as well as characteristics in brands choice are more focused on utilitatrian reinforcement than informative reinforcements. Number of alternatives did not show great importance in the choice, being important to emphasize that previous experiences prevailed at the moment of choice. Keywords: Consumer. Choice. Brand.

Published: April 2021

La actual coyuntura económica está acelerando el cambio del panorama laboral al que se enfrentan las personas másjóvenes en Europa, España y en el País Vasco. Y no sólo porque su tasa de ocupación desciende de manera significativa desde hace cinco años, sino porque también están cambiando las condiciones laborales, el tipo de puestos de trabajo, los sectores en los que puede haber empleo, las competencias que exigen las empresas…, etc. El puesto de trabajo fijo y estable ha variado y es preciso hacerle frente desde todos los ámbitos comenzando desde la educación primaria y hasta la educación superior, pero pasando también por la intervención conjunta de las instituciones y de las empresas. En este contexto tan cambiante es difícil predecir el futuro del mercado laboral, sin embargo, vamos a tratar de perfilar las profesiones y los sectores de actividad donde entendemos que pueden estar los yacimientos de empleo para los próximos años. Nuestra hipótesis de cara a futuro es que surgirán nuevos sectores y profesiones emergentes que convivirán a su vez con los sectores productivos tradicionales de cada país.

Published: April 2021

BACKGROUND A high-fat diet can lead to hyperlipidemia which will end up as liver damage (steatohepatitis). Ethanolic Feronia elephantum Correa fruit extract (EFEC) has an antioxidant activity which is expected to overcome hyperlipidemia in the liver. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of EFEC on liver function and morphological changes in rats.METHODSThis was an experimental study with a post-test only group design. A total of 20 male Wistar rats aged 2-4 months were randomized into 5 groups, A= negative control, B= positive control (high fat diet + 10 mg/kgBW simvastatin), C = high fat diet + 500 mg/kgBW EFEC fruit extract, D = high fat diet + 600 mg/kgBW EFEC, and E = high fat diet + 700 mg/kgBW EFEC). High-fat diet was given for 4 weeks (quail egg yolks, 10ml/200gBW). EFEC was administered for 4 weeks after induction of hypercholesterolemia. Examination of liver serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) and serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) was performed on rat blood serum and histopathological examination was carried out using steatohepatitis grading. One way ANOVA test and Post-Hoc Tamhane’s test were used to analyze the data. RESULTSAdministration of EFEC at 700 mg/kgBW improved the liver enzymes (p=0.00 for SGPT and SGOT) and steatohepatitis grading in high-fat diet induced rats (mild condition, E = 75% vs A = 100% mild)CONCLUSIONEthanolic Feronia elephantum Correa fruit extract at 700 mg/kgBW was able to improve steatohepatitis in high-fat diet induced rats.

Published: April 2021

BackgroundThe burden of tuberculosis (TB) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is enormous worldwide. Public health programs have been challenged with the overlapping of TB and CVD epidemics.Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is also a main driver of atherogenesis, suggesting a potential pathogenic role of tuberculosis in cardiovascular disease. The objective of this study was to compare the serum levels of apolipoprotein B (apo B), apolipoprotein B48 (apo B48) and apolipoprotein B100 (apo B100) between patients with tuberculosis and healthy subjects. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 251 subjects consisting of 120 treatment naïve active TB patients [26 HIV co infected (TB+HIV+) and 82 TB+), 12 malaria parasite co-infected (TB+MP+)], 26 latent TB infected (LTB) and 105 healthy controls. Their body mass index (BMI) was calculated. Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection was determined by Ziehl-Nelseen (ZN) sputum smear microscopy and confirmed positive using GeneXpert. Latent TB was determined by Mantoux test, MP was evaluated by microscopy while HIV by immunochromatographic techniques using serial algorithm. Apolipoproteins were determined using spectrophotometry. A one-way ANOVA test and LSD’s post hoc multiple comparisons were used for statistical analyses. ResultsSignificantly lower mean levels of BMI were observed in LTB, TB+, TB+HIV+ and TB+MP+ compared with the controls (p<0.005). The mean serum levels of apo B, apo B48 and B100 were significantly higher in LTB, TB+, HIV+TB+ and TB+MP+ compared with apparently healthy controls (p<0.05). Conclusion Elevated levels of apolipoproteins among infected TB individuals might predispose them to cardiovascular disease.

BESİNSEL ANTİOKSİDAN BİLEŞENLERİNİN MATERNAL VE FETAL SAĞLIK ÜZERİNE ETKİLERİ
Authors: Demirer Büşra , Yardımcı Hülya
Published: April 2021

Gebelik döneminde yeterli ve dengeli beslenme maternal ve fetal sağlığı doğrudan etkilemektedir. Bu dönemde makro ve mikro besin ögelerinden gereksinim duyulan miktarda almak önemlidir. Çünkü gebelik döneminde makro ve mikro besin ögeleri yetersizlikleri birçok farklı patolojik durum ile ilişkilidir. Metabolizmada birçok farklı işlevi bulunan mikro besin ögelerinin yer aldığı en önemli sistemlerden birisi savunma sistemi olarak adlandırılan antioksidan sistemdir. Antioksidan sistemin tam ve etkili çalışabilmesi için gerekli besinsel antioksidan bileşenlerinin beslenme programında yeterli miktarda yer alması fetal ve maternal antioksidan durumu etkilemektedir. Serbest radikallere karşı maternal ve fetal savunmayı sağlayan antioksidan sistemin tam ve etkili çalışabilmesi için enzimatik ve enzimatik olmayan antioksidanlara ihtiyaç vardır. Antioksidan sistemde etkili birçok farklı bileşen yer almasına karşın A, C, E vitaminleri ve çinko, bakır, selenyum üzerinde en çok çalışılan besinsel antioksidan bileşenlerdir. Bu antioksidan bileşenler etkilerini farklı mekanizmalar üzerinden gerçekleştirmekle birlikte genel olarak antioksidan enzimlere kofaktör etki göstererek ya da doğrudan vücutta antioksidan bileşenlerin varlığını koruyarak etki göstermektedir. Annenin beslenme düzeni gebelik döneminde hem annenin hem de fetüsün sağlığının korunması ve devam ettirilmesi için oldukça önemlidir. Fetal ve neonatal sağlığın korunması, intrauterin gelişimin sağlanması, fetal-neonatal antioksidan sistemin aktif çalışabilmesi için gebelik döneminde gereksinim duyulan miktarlarda antioksidan etki gösteren besin bileşenlerinden alınmalıdır. Antioksidan sistemin doğru çalışmaması durumunda vücutta artan reaktif oksijen türleri (ROS) ve diğer zararlı bileşikler hücresel hasara sebep olabilmektedir. Ayrıca artan oksidatif stres preeklampsi, intrauterin büyüme yetersizliği (IUGR), diyabet ve diğer üreme sistemi patolojilerine sebep olabilmektedir. Derleme olarak hazırlanan bu makalede besinsel antioksidan kaynaklarının maternal ve fetal sağlığa etkilerine yönelik güncel bilgilerin paylaşılması amaçlanmıştır.

Published: April 2021

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to assess and compare the level of the calcium adenosine 5’-triphosphatase (Ca2+-ATPase) enzyme activity in resected extraocular muscles of strabismus and control groups.MATERIAL AND METHODS: The level of Ca2+-ATPase enzyme activity was evaluated in the extraocular horizontal muscles resected from twenty eyes of 19 patients who underwent strabismus surgery (group 1) and extraocular horizontal muscles samples taken from five eyes of 5 corneal transplant donors (control group - group 2). Enzyme activity was measured via inorganic phosphate (Pi) levels released during Ca2+-ATPase activity.RESULTS: The average activity was calculated as 100.07±12.75 nmol Pi mg-1 0.90min-1 in group 1 and as 165.94±13.60 nmol Pi mg-1 0.90 min-1 in group 2. The enzyme activity in group 1 was significantly lower than in group 2 (p <0.01).CONCLUSIONS: The low level of Ca2+-ATPase enzyme activity in muscles that were resected during strabismus surgery might be an indicator for their possible role in pathophysiology of strabismus.

Published: April 2021

AMAÇ: Subklinik hipotiroidi serumda serbest tiroid hormon düzeyleri normal iken; yüksek TSH (tiroid stimulan hormon) düzeylerinin saptandığı biyokimyasal bir tanımlamadır. Tip 2 DM (diyabetes mellitus) hastalarında başta subklinik hipotiroidizm olmak üzere tiroid fonksiyon bozukluklarının sıklıkla görüldüğü ve bu hastalarda TSH düzeyindeki artışın insülin direnci ile birlikte dislipidemiye yol açtığı yönünde veriler vardır. Biz de bu çalışmada; subklinik hipotiroidinin, tip 2 diyabetes mellituslu hastalarda serum lipid profili, açlık kan şekeri, HbA1c gibi biyokimyasal parametreler üzerine etkisini araştırmayı amaçladık.GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: Bu retrospektif çalışma tip 2 DM tanısı ile takipli toplam 99 hasta ile yapılmıştır. Bakılan tiroid fonksiyon testlerinde subklinik hipotiroidi tespit edilen diyabetik hastalar ‘hasta grubu’, tiroid fonksiyon testleri normal bulunan diyabetik hastalar ise ‘kontrol grubu’ olarak isimlendirilmiştir. Hastaların demografik özellikleri, açlık kan şekeri, HbA1c düzeyleri, total kolesterol, LDL (low density lipoprotein), HDL (high density lipoprotein) ve VLDL (very low density lipoprotein) kolesterol düzeyleri elektronik dosyalardan elde edilmiştir. Hasta ve kontrol grupları arasında biyokimyasal parametrelerin karşılaştırılması yapılmıştır.BULGULAR: Çalışma 46 (%46,5) hasta ve 53 (%53,5) kontrol grubu olmak üzere toplam 99 hasta ile yapılmıştır. Açlık kan şekeri, HbA1c, total kolesterol, trigliserid, LDL kolesterol ve VLDL kolesterol seviyeleri hasta grubunda kontrol grubuna göre anlamlı düzeyde yüksek tespit edilmiştir (p<0,05). Hasta ve kontrol grubunun ortalama yaşları, serbest T4 düzeyleri ve HDL kolesterol seviyeleri birbirine benzer bulunmuştur.SONUÇ: Literatürde birçok çalışmada; Tip 2 DM ve tiroid fonksiyon bozukluğu birlikteliği gösterilmiştir. Yüksek TSH düzeyleri ile yüksek VKİ (vücut kitle indeksi), yüksek kan basıncı, yüksek serum insülin düzeyi, HOMA-IR skoru, yüksek açlık kan şekeri, HbA1c düzeyleri, total kolesterol, LDL, HDL ve VLDL kolesterol, trigliserid düzeyleri ilişkisi saptanmıştır. Bizim çalışmamızda da literatüre benzer olarak açlık kan şekeri, HbA1c, total kolesterol, LDL, VLDL kolesterol, trigliserid seviyeleri hasta grubunda kontrol grubuna göre anlamlı düzeyde yüksek tespit edilmiştir. Ancak tip 2 DM ile takipli hastalarda tiroid fonksiyon bozukluğundan etkilenen metabolik parametreleri tam olarak saptayabilmek için daha geniş çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.

Published: April 2021

OBJECTIVE: Deep neck infections (DNIs) are the infections developing in potential spaces between the layers of deep servical fascia. Clinical course may progress from early manifestations such as cellulite, myositis to serious DNI such as phlegmon and abscess. DNIs have crucial importance because of delayed diagnosis, fast progression, and severe complications. In this descriptive study, we aimed to present our seven-year experience about pediatric DNIs based on the clinical and laboratory characteristic of our patients.MATERIAL AND METHODS: Data of 58 hospitalized children who diagnosed with DNI between January 2010 and January 2017 in Pediatric Infectious Diseases Clinic were analysed retrospectively. Patients’ medical history and physical examination findings, laboratory and radiological imaging results, treatment modalities, and clinical courses were evaluated by reviewing medical records.RESULTS: Thirty (51.7%) of the patients were male, average age was 5.6±4.9 years. The most common symptom and physical finding was neck swelling (96.5%). Rates of C-reactive protein elevation, leucocytosis, and sedimentation elevation were 93%, 89%, and 72% respectively. By considering clinical condition, ultrasound scan was performed on patients with nonserious DNI (=cellulite phase) (n=26), computed tomography scan was performed on patients with serious DNI (= abscess) (n=28), and magnetic resonance imagination was performed (n=4) if CT scanner is out of order. In patients with abscess formation parapharyngeal localization (75%) was the most common. According to ultrasound scan, submandibular involvement (%46) was the most frequent region. The most common two etiology were acute tonsillopharyngitis (34%) and odontogenic factors (10%), and unknown etiology rate was 51%. Average duration of hospitalization was 9.7±5.9 days, 55% of patients were treated with intravenous ampicillin-sulbactam whereas 43% were treated with intravenous clindamycin. Twenty-two (38%) patients healed with medical treatment. Surgical drainage was performed on 36 (62%) patients in addition to medical treatment. There were bacterial growths in 18 (50%) drainage material cultures. Two (3.4%) patients were complicated with airway obstruction and mediastinitis while there was no mortality.CONCLUSIONS: Children with neck swelling and fever should be evaluated in terms of DNI, and also dental and tonsillar examinations should be done carefully. Contrast CT scan should be performed for pre-diagnosis of cases with serious DNI and surgical drainage should be performed in cases with abscess formation. DNIs threatening airway patency may cause severe morbidity and mortality, so early diagnosis, appropriate antibiotic therapy with or without surgical drainage may improve prognosis.

Published: April 2021

Background: Flat foot is a deformity in which patients lack standard arches in the soles of the foot. Flat foot improves with age. This study was designed to determine the prevalence of flexible flat foot among male school children in Tehran, Iran.
Methods: A total of 1539 male school children were included in this study. Students were examined for the flatness of the sole of the foot as well as its degree and type. Flat foot was diagnosed on inspecting a poor formation of the arch. The severity of flatness was classified according to Denis criteria.
Results: Among 1512 children whose foot condition was recorded, 80.7% had normal/grade 1 sole, 16.7% had 2nd degree flat feet, and 2.6% had 3rd degree flat feet. Prevalence of genu varum was 16.1% and prevalence of genu valgum was 2.7% (P = 0.504). The prevalence of flat foot decreased significantly with age; in the group of 11-year-old boys and younger, 23.1% showed a grade 2 and grade 3 flat foot, whereas in the group of 12-year-old boys and older, only 13.6% hada grade 2 and grade 3 flat foot (P < 0.001).
Conclusion: In this study, a significant relationship was found between weight gain and body mass index (BMI) with flat feet. There is a significant association between passing the age of 12 years and a decrease in flat foot. Also, the association between flat foot with weight and height of children was examined separately, and it was found that weight could significantly be a poor predictor of flat feet.

Main Findings: Findings reveal that the moderating role of ICT is insignificant on the relationship between e-Payment and Customer Satisfaction and the use of ICT enhances the Service Quality of Logistics and Customer Satisfaction. The beneficiary of the current research would be the logistics firms of Pakistan as it encompasses different aspects influencing logistic customer satisfaction. Logistic service quality is directly linked to the customer, so the current study can benefit the logistic firm in how to retain customers and ultimately how to increase profitability.

Implications/Applications: Current research also describes the utilization of Information and Communication Technology so organizations can design their system according to the modern framework of technology.

Novelty/Originality of this study: This research study is based on different logistic services of major cities of Pakistan. The direct impact of independent variables on a dependent variable will be studied along with the moderating effect of Use of ICT on the direct relationships. The practice of logistic services has been changed due to the emergence of the concept of service quality and relationship marketing. Traditionally, logistics has been thought to be a bridge between production and consumption.
Análisis de la evolución de la situación laboral de las mujeres marroquíes
Authors: Yahya Khadija
Published: April 2021

El presente artículo analiza la situación laboral de las mujeres marroquíes: desde la primera mitad del siglo XX hasta la década del dos mil. La situación laboral de las mujeres marroquíes ha conocido un notable avance -sobre todo con la incorporación, cada vez más, de las mujeres al mundo laboral- gracias a los cambios que está conociendo la realidad social de estas mujeres. Sin embargo, obstáculos como el género y la disparidad campo/ciudad siguen presentando grandes desafíos para la sociedad y el Estado marroquí, e impiden su plena inserción laboral.
Fados y derivas por Lisboa: de la metrópoli colonial a la capital lusófona global.
Authors: Camino Esturo Edorta
Published: April 2021

El presente artículo analiza la realidad multicultural de la ciudad de Lisboa a partir de su pasado histórico colonial y simbólicamente construido. Durante el régimen salazarista, la ciudad se transformó en una alegoría del colonialismo donde se construían monumentos conmemorativos de un pasado imperial y omnilusófono. A través de un análisis documental y de trabajo de campo, la investigación relaciona la actual situación estática y hierática de la ciudad monumental frente al dinamismo de un multiculturalismo urbano cada vez más africanizado, segregado y excluido.
El Leviatán como aparato de captura: una perspectiva materialista sobre la forma Estado desde Marx, Althusser, Foucault y Deleuze
Authors: Arcos Fuentes Israel
Published: April 2021

Este artículo trata de establecer un abordaje de la naturaleza estatal desde una concepción materialista asentada en autores como Marx, Althusser, Deleuze o Foucault, que frente a cualquier misticismo o ideología sobre la forma Estado, como por desgracia han caído en muchas ocasiones las distintas teorías del Estado, anclan la problemática del Estado desde unos análisis apegados a las practicas estatales y su materialidad. En este sentido, se tratará de buscar una definición del Estado, la razón de su existencia, una última naturaleza si la tuviera, sobre todo, si tenemos en cuenta, la confusión que supone la multiplicidad de formas de adjetivarlo que surgen en estos tiempos posmodernos
Los cuidados en un contexto de crisis económica. El caso del Àrea Metropolitana de València
Authors: Muñoz González Óscar , Pitxer i Campos Josep V.
Published: April 2021

La dependencia y el trabajo de cuidados se están situando en un plano central dentro del debate académico. Antaño, diversos factores incidieron en un mayor recurso a la cobertura mercantil de las necesidades crecientes en este campo, pero con la crisis económica iniciada a finales del 2007 se ha transitado hacia la desmercantilización/refamiliarización de los cuidados, consecuencia del elevado desempleo y de las políticas austericidas. La investigación descansa en la realización de once entrevistas en profundidad semiestructuradas a actores clave de la dependencia del Àrea Metropolitana de València, previo análisis exploratorio. Se llega a la conclusión que (a) el cuidado en el ámbito doméstico es el más frecuente; (b) los principales factores para la elección de la modalidad de los cuidados son los de tipo económico y los culturales; (c) la mujer continúa como protagonista principal del cuidado en el ámbito reproductivo y es la que debe enfrentarse a la compatibilización de la vida laboral y familiar, con repercusiones negativas graves en su presencia y resultados alcanzados en el mercado de trabajo; además, (d) la falta de capacidad económica de un buen número de familias les ha conducido a abandonar el recurso al mercado, lo que, unido a la carencia de una oferta de servicios públicos suficiente, ha facilitado un desplazamiento hacia la refamiliarización del cuidado. En otros casos se han buscado alternativas mercantiles más económicas, con bastante frecuencia en contextos de informalidad, entre las que destaca la (re)nativización o retorno de la mujer autóctona a estas actividades de forma remunerada.
Criminalidad y desajustes de las políticas de seguridad pública: un panorama de América Latina del post-Guerra Fría
Authors: Yauri Miranda Jaseff Raziel
Published: April 2021

En América Latina, la criminalidad se ha convertido en un fenómeno de primer orden desde el fin de la Guerra Fría. La creciente atención, sin embargo, no ha sido acompañada por una reducción de su incidencia y por un eficaz tratamiento. Las inconsistencias y fracasos para tratar el crimen también habrían tenido que ver con la propia calidad de las políticas públicas de seguridad. En ese sentido, el artículo cuestiona si tales políticas se han presentado “desajustadas” tanto en sus bases como en sus modos de acción frente a la criminalidad. Por lo tanto, en primer lugar se analizan cuáles han sido las bases teóricas y cognitivas que han sostenido las políticas públicas de cara a la criminalidad. En segundo lugar, se analizan las respuestas y transformaciones que las propias políticas de seguridad han tenido en América Latina. De manera general, las conclusiones extraen el carácter histórico y sociopolítico de las limitaciones y características que la acción pública ha tenido frente al delito, lo que confirma que los desajustes en las políticas también han contribuido a la expansión de la criminalidad en las últimas décadas.
La vida de pareja de los adultos jóvenes y las dinámicas socio-demográficas de cambio en el curso de vida. Una revisión teórica para el estudio de sus trayectorias de unión y ruptura.
Authors: García-Pereiro Thaís
Published: April 2021

Recientemente los países occidentales han sido testigos de importantes transformaciones en la transición a la adultez. Los adultos jóvenes están posponiendo los procesos de emancipación y formación de la pareja y la familia. En el caso particular de la vida de pareja, fenómenos como la cohabitación, las parejas sin co-residencia, y la separación o el divorcio, resultan cada vez más diversos y más complejos, pues el calendario, la entrada y salida hacia o desde dichos estados se normaliza y aumenta en frecuencia a medida que avanza el ciclo vital.

Tales niveles de heterogeneidad cuestionan la institucionalización del curso de vida, puesto que las biografías individuales ya no podrían considerarse estables y predecibles. Muy por el contrario, estarían sujetas a variaciones que responden tanto al aumento de la agencia del sujeto como a barreras de tipo estructural, ambas influenciando la construcción de su propia trayectoria vital.
Así, es el objetivo principal de este trabajo el plantear una reflexión teórica desde las perspectivas sociológica y demográfica que sirva de base para el análisis empírico de los cambios acaecidos en la vida de pareja de los adultos jóvenes a través de la observación de sus trayectorias de unión y ruptura.
Discapacidad y Sociología: una realidad en construcción
Authors: Ortega Camarero Maria Teresa
Published: April 2021

La manera en la que han ido evolucionando las sociedades tiene mucho que ver en la forma en la que se ha entendido a la discapacidad, como resultado del cambio social. Conocer las formas en las que las diferentes sociedades han explicado y tratado  a la discapacidad, resulta fundamental para comprender el momento actual y, de esta manera poder acertar con las políticas y los planes de intervención adecuados para la inclusión de las  personas con discapacidad.

Hoy la discapacidad supone uno de los factores de diversidad de más volumen y heterogéneo y desde luego contribuye al enriquecimiento de las sociedades. Es necesario analizarlo y comprenderlo desde esta perspectiva de diversidad.
La Sociología más cualitativa no ha encontrado en la discapacidad un ámbito de trabajo excesivamente prolífico a diferencia de otros campos como el feminismo o de otros contextos como en la sociología anglosajona. La evolución de modelos, desde una concepción trágica por tener una discapacidad hasta la perspectiva de los derechos a la que hoy asistimos debe ser objeto de análisis de los sociólogos, no tanto por contar como se ha producido esa evolución,  sino también por la posibilidad que se nos brinda de contribuir al cambio social que conduzca a que efectivamente aquello que si se ha avanzado en el plano de los Derechos y también se reivindica desde las entidades del Tercer Sector de la Discapacidad, trascienda a la vida social cotidiana de nuestros entornos más cercanos
Los menores marroquíes en Bizkaia, un colectivo en cuarentena social.
Authors: Barba del Horno Mikel
Published: April 2021

Este artículo estudia las características del modo de incorporación de los Menores extranjeros no acompañados (MENA) de origen marroquí en Bizkaia. A partir del análisis de una serie de entrevistas en profundidad realizadas a exMENAs, veremos cómo el colectivo se encuentra en una situación que podríamos definir como de cuarentena social, que se caracteriza por la restricción del acceso a la mayoría de los espacios de socialización normalizados. Esta situación de aislamiento impide a los MENAs establecer relaciones que proporcionen capital social puente, dificultando la adquisición de los repertorios culturales que les permitirían tener una integración satisfactoria.

En este artículo se presentan parte de los resultados de una investigación elaborada por Ikuspegi - Observatorio Vasco de Inmigración acerca del proceso de integración de las jóvenes de segunda generación de ascendencia africana en la Comunidad Autónoma de Euskadi. Para la consecución de dicho estudio se ha llevado a cabo una investigación de corte cualitativo basado en la realización de tres grupos de discusión con mujeres jóvenes de ascendencia magrebí y subsahariana. El estudio evidencia las dificultades a las que estas jóvenes se han venido enfrentando en sus procesos de aculturación en una sociedad que, a pesar de haber crecido en ella, las continúa viendo como extranjeras.
DISCURSO POLÍTICO DE VOX SOBRE LOS MENORES EXTRANJEROS NO ACOMPAÑADOS
Authors: Cheddadi Zakariae
Published: April 2021

El importante ascenso de Vox en el último año a nivel electoral ha contribuido a introducir nuevos discursos hasta el momento marginados en la agenda política de la opinión pública, siendo el discurso en contra de la inmigración y del islam bandera de esta organización a la hora de presentarse a nivel electoral. Coincide todo ello con que los Menores Extranjeros No Acompañados se han convertido en fuente de controversia política, debido a diferentes sucesos y a su situación política-legal. Por esto, atendiendo a este contexto, se propone estudiar el discurso de Vox sobre los MENAs en la red social Twitter durante el año 2019. Para ello, se utiliza la técnica de investigación cualitativa a través del análisis de discurso cuyo objeto de investigación es el discurso de Vox sobre los MENAs en Twitter durante el citado año. Los resultados de esta investigación arrojan tres argumentos tipo identificados en la aproximación de Vox a este fenómeno en esta red social: 1) “MENA” como parte de la deriva “progre”: Construyendo alternativa desde la “España Viva”. 2) Guerra al asistencialismo social universal: En defensa de un Estado Social nativista. 3) Cuestión de seguridad: defender a nuestros barrios de los MENAs intrusos.
Mechanical respiratory support for COVID-19: lessons from 2020
Authors: Mazurok V. A.
Published: April 2021

Intensive therapy of out-of-hospital pneumonia in conditions of mass admission of patients during 2020 presented many lessons, including regarding the strategy of respiratory support, as it turned out that mechanical ventilation in passive patients with COVID-19 is almost equivalent to a death sentence. On the other hand, maintaining spontaneous breathing in dyspnea and hyperpnea conditions can cause specific self-inflicted lung injury

Unexpectedly, the good tolerability of hypoxemia by patients has led to the emergence of the terms “happy hypoxia” and “permissive hypoxemia,” reflecting the effective functioning of acute adaptation mechanisms: increasing heart productivity and oxygen utilization.

A step-by-step strategy for respiratory therapy was formed: 1) oxygen therapy (low-flow, high-flow), 2) non-invasive respiratory support (NIV), 3) controlled lung ventilation. Among the most effective resources for mobilizing alveoli in patients with COVID-19 was the prone position.

Compared to a tight mask, the helmet turned out to be the most effective method of conducting NIV. When using the helmet, bedsores on the face and the bridge of the nose do not develop, enteral nutrition is possible, subjective tolerability of NIV by patients is increased.

Conversion to invasive mechanical ventilation is considered in case of energy inadmissibility of spontaneous breathing and development of central nervous system disorders. Breathing equipment with a wide range of ventilation modes and expert capabilities for respiratory monitoring is needed to carry out both mechanical ventilation and especially NIV.

If pulmonary gas exchange is not possible, the only means of saving the patient remains extracorporeal membrane oxygenation — a method that requires huge energy costs from trained medical personnel and good technical equipment of the clinic.

One of the most visible lessons presented by the pandemic of viral pneumonia is the unsuccessful attempt to speed up the training of “intensive care specialists” through on-line courses, webinars and even guide sheets.
