Authors: Fu Cangcang , Wang Bing Han , Li Lin , Zhu Jihua , Li Wei
Published: May 2023

Background: The global spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has reached pandemic proportions. Attempts to control its spread have included a range of early screening and triage measures developed in several nations and areas. Objectives: This study aimed to determine how to prioritize pediatric fever patients to limit the time they had to wait for a consultation and, therefore, the potential of worsening and crises under the burden of COVID-19. Methods: The triage and emergency care process of children in the Fever Clinic of Children’s Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Zhejiang, China, within 2019 - 2020 included flow charts, guidance signs, publicity materials, noon and night articulation, and emergency calls. To enhance the management of pre-consultation and triage, the incidence of adverse event injuries was tallied, and satisfaction surveys were conducted. The prevalence of infectious diseases was characterized by demographic and seasonal factors, and the chi-square test was employed to test for differences between groups. Results: From January 2019 to December 2020, four peak periods were observed in each year, namely February, July, September, and December in 2019 and March, June, September, and December in 2020. The peak of common respiratory virus infection was seasonal; however, a significant increase (χ2 = 52.17; P < 0.001) in the case of patients who needed emergency care was observed secondary to fever. The patients within the age range of 1 - 3 years were more in need of emergency care than any other age group (54.70%; 99/181). The most common disease requiring emergency care was febrile convulsions (55.2%). No infectious diseases were missed or underreported during the study period, and no medical personnel was infected. Conclusions: An effective pre-consultation assessment and triage management system and streamlined workflow are of great importance in safeguarding acute patients while preventing infectious diseases.

Published: May 2023

Introduction: Diagnosis and treatment of ventricular septal defect (VSD) during infancy is of great importance in improving the infant’s health. Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and coarctation of the aorta are the most common disorders associated with VSD. Patent ductus arteriosus needs to be closed using surgical or non-surgical procedures. This article aims to present a case of repairing coarctation of the aorta by stenting in an infant with VSD due to the placement of a large Amplatzer during ductus arteriosus closure. Case Presentation: The patient was a one-and-a-half-year-old girl with Down syndrome and congenital heart disease. In the initial examination, a second loud heart sound and a systolic ejection murmur could be heard at the left sternal border. The results of the previous echocardiography showed the presence of VSD, PDA, and coarctation of the aorta. She underwent angioplasty a few months ago, and since the coarctation had not been repaired by balloon aortoplasty due to a large amplatzer. Therefore, the surgeon could not repair the VSD because of uncorrected pulmonary hypertension. Hence, we decided to repair the coarctation by stenting. After two weeks of medication treatment, the patient underwent angiography, and a formula stent placement was done for the patient. Conclusions: Pulmonary artery blood flow correction is an effective factor in treating patients with VSD that can be achieved by using the correct amplatzer placement. We corrected the aortic coarctation caused by improper amplatzer placement using stenting.

Influence of Microfinance on Poverty Reduction in Pakistan: An Analytical Approach
Authors: Qadri Syed Muhammad Younus , Roohi Ahmed
Published: May 2023

This study's goal is to empirically examine how microfinance tools have affected Pakistan's efforts to combat poverty. The panel data of Pakistani microfinance institutions—both deposit-taking and non-deposit-taking institutions—was selected from Microfinance Information Exchange (MIX) and the World Bank data resources between 2004 and 2018. Due to the presence of endogeneity and heteroskedasticity in the model we apply One Step Robust System GMM model. This paper's major objective is to determine how gross loan portfolio affects the country's efforts to combat poverty. The assertion made in the hypothesis that there is a negative association between them was disproved by our findings. The other macro level control variable unemployment rates is significant and accepting the hypothesis that unemployment is negative to poverty. When applied to the regression analysis, the other variables show that OSS and TA are negatively related to poverty. This suggests that loans should be distributed through large size microfinance institutions that are capable of sustaining themselves in such a way that it will increase employment, which will ultimately lead to a reduction in poverty.

Authors: García-Raga Laura , Grau Roser
Published: May 2023

Actualmente está creciendo el interés por la mediación escolar como estrategia que permite afrontar los conflictos y mejorar la convivencia. Con nuestro trabajo se pretende conocer la valoración de la mediación atendiendo las opiniones de 30 docentes que coordinan proyectos de mediación en centros educativos de 12 comunidades de España. A través de la realización de un estudio de encuesta se han recogido datos cuantitativos y cualitativos a partir de un instrumento elaborado ad-hoc. Los datos cuantitativos se han medido a través de preguntas cerradas con el fin de obtener información sobre aspectos como el perfil del centro, del profesional, el funcionamiento del servicio de mediación y la valoración de la misma por la comunidad educativa. La información cualitativa se ha obtenido a través de preguntas abiertas. Mediante un estudio descriptivo, se destaca como resultado el gran acuerdo que existe por parte de los participantes en valorar de forma muy positiva la mediación, así como su percepción de la satisfacción global, tanto del claustro como del alumnado y de las familias. Los resultados demuestran que el profesorado en contacto directo con la mediación considera que es una herramienta que fomenta el diálogo, la autonomía, el crecimiento personal y la resolución pacífica de conflictos. Por tanto, se considera que la mediación es una apuesta interesante que promueve la resolución pacífica de conflictos y quizás ha llegado el momento de reflexionar acerca del espacio y el tiempo que ocupa que debiera ocupar el aprendizaje de la convivencia en los centros educativos.

Authors: Rosado-Castellano María Fátima , Cáceres-Muñoz Jorge
Published: May 2023

El presente trabajo se muestra como una posibilidad de acercamiento al Sistema Educativo español actual, a través de un análisis comparado descriptivo de la relación existente entre la inversión en educación y la tasa de abandono escolar temprano. El propósito fundamental es aproximarnos a conocer este grado de relación, tomando datos específicos de la inversión realizada por cada Comunidad y Ciudad Autónoma total y por alumno así como la tasa de abandono. En el plano metodológico destacar que se trata de un estudio comparativo entre las 17 Comunidades y 2 Ciudades Autónomas (CC.AA y C.A) que configuran el Sistema Educativo Español. Es una investigación de corte cuantitativo y con unidades de comparación intra-nacionales. Las unidades de comparación que se han tenido en cuenta para este estudio son tanto económicas como académicas. Por un lado, los valores económicos hacen referencia a la inversión que realiza cada una de las CC.AA y C.A en el periodo comprendido de 2013 a 2015, tanto en general como de manera específica en la etapa Secundaria y por alumno. Por otro lado, los valores educativos hacen referencia a las tasas de abandono escolar temprano en el mismo periodo, de 2013 a 2015. Al cotejar ambas variables se nos presentan realidades contradictorias que instan a pensar que el fenómeno del abandono escolar temprano es una situación que no depende exclusivamente de la inversión educativa. Por tanto, los resultados de la inversión han de ser medidos con cautela y a medio largo plazo, pudiendo a partir de ahí, nacer debates entorno a la cantidad, calidad y forma de reparto de la misma.

En la actualidad, formamos jóvenes que son catalogados como los Net, generación que crece con el Internet. Esta población ha inventado su propias reglas y estilo de escritura, en el cual usan signos de “emoticón”: emotion + icon (emoción + icono). En este contexto, el correcto uso y el cumplimiento de las reglas de ortografía y gramática han sido en los últimos años olvidadas. Actualmente, los estudiantes presentan un grave problema en la escritura de documentos. Se supone que en la asignatura de Lengua Castellana, en los primeros años de formación, se les enseña gramática y ortografía, tarea difícil de realizar por el alto contenido temático y complejo que se imparte; y si se añade métodos y herramientas tradicionales que no logran llevar el conocimiento al alumno, se acrecienta mucho más el problema. Por esto, el objetivo de esta investigación es el desarrollo de un recurso educativo digital (un juego en línea para móviles) que ayudará, no solo a la medición del conocimiento en el tema de las normas y reglas de la ortografía, sino al refuerzo del mismo. ¡A Escribir Bien!, aplicó la Metodología DESED, la cual posee unas fases muy similares al modelo de ingeniería tradicional del ciclo de vida de desarrollo de software interactivo. Como resultados obtenidos destacan un banco de preguntas, el diseño instruccional, un plan de trabajo y la App. A modo de conclusión se obtiene que, el desarrollo de juegos educativos en los seres humanos, puede despertar aspectos tales como la responsabilidad, la competitividad, rivalidades y diversión.

Bioactive collagen peptides: bibliometric approach and market trends for aquatic sources
Authors: Costa Beatriz de Aquino Marques da , Porto Ana Lúcia Figueiredo , Oliveira Vagne de Melo , Porto Tatiana Souza
Published: May 2023

The development of the collagen peptides industry is associated with new consumption trends among the population, projected to reach a value of 795 million USD by 2025. Given the relevance of the topic, the present work provides an overview of collagen, its sources, applications, as well as the properties and bioactivities of the peptides formed from its hydrolysis. In addition, a bibliometric analysis was performed to highlight a global overview of publication trends, co-authorship, and co-occurrence of keywords. Bibliometric data were obtained from the Web of Science platform using the descriptors “marine collagen peptide,” “marine collagen peptides,” “aquatic collagen peptide,” “aquatic collagen peptides,” “marine collagen hydrolysate,” “marine collagen hydrolysates,” “aquatic collagen hydrolysate” and “aquatic collagen hydrolysates” and the Boolean operator “OR,” to include terms that cover the possible variations used in the search. From the results obtained, articles and reviews published between 2000 and 2021 were selected. From the analysis of the data collected, it became evident the still relatively recent nature of the research on collagen peptides derived from aquatic organisms and the role of countries in Asia and Europe as leaders in the segment. The co-authorship analysis reveals that the collaboration network between authors/institutions is still scarce and strongly restricted to researchers/institutions in the same region. The co-occurrence analysis reveals that most of the works are related to the health area, highlighting its potential in the prevention/treatment of diseases. In view of the results obtained, it is expected that the growth of the production and commercial branch of these peptides will be accompanied by the amplification of collaboration between authors and institutions from different territories, establishing a global network of partnerships.
Nuclear deterrence and the prevention of war: the case study of India and Pakistan
Authors: Hussain Shafaq
Published: May 2023

There are a number of existing theories of deterrence, mainly nuclear deterrence, that explain how states avoid the probability of war when they acquire nuclear power. While most theories generally explain how states deter each other, there is also a deterrence debate between the IR scholars Kenneth Waltz and Scott Sagan over nuclear proliferation assuring security and nuclear proliferation increasing the threat of destruction. Similarly, the stability-instability paradox provides how deterrence lowers the likelihood of war, but the minor skirmishes continue. Under these different theories of deterrence, this paper studies the case of deterrence between India and Pakistan, the two nuclear neighbors and adversaries.

Indian Hostile Narratives and Counter Narratives of Pakistan
Authors: Babar Adeel
Published: May 2023

In the 21st century, international relations and communication have been interacting with each other in an ineffable manner. It is hard to find that how international relations are conducted and which actors are involved. This all happened because of the new media ecologies with the modernization of technology. Communication has to play a very crucial role in today’s world especially in international relations. The work of Manuel Castell “Communication Power” explains how communication and new media ecologies have shaped our world in twenty first century and how relationships of power can be defined and reconfigured through communication. Manuel uses the term of “network society” & “mass self-communication”. In a “networked society” new networked pattern of relationships emerge that may be political, social and economic. “Mass self-communication” that emerged during 2000’s encouraged everyone to have their own views of the world around them and broadcast online. The power of “mass self-communication” cannot be neglected in today’s world as this phenomenon helped toppled governments in the Arab Spring starting in 2011. Now communication is not controlled by elites in society but is available to all and its power cannot be undermined. Changing media ecologies gave rise to a concept of narrative building which political actors use in order to achieve political and other policy goals.

More recently, driven by its ambitious agenda, the Indian military has unveiled a military doctrine by the name of “Land Warfare Doctrine 2018” which is based on a proactive and pre-emptive approach toward any conflict. The doctrine has declared Pakistan to be the primary focus and China to be the secondary focus. It encompasses the geo-strategic environment, future security challenges, environmental realities, and hybrid warfare. With a greater emphasis on the rearrangement of the strike formations into the IBGs or the Integrated Battle Groups, the LWD aims to equip the offensive components for shallow incursions in rapid combat situations. Such an agenda has the potential to thrust the South Asian region into a never-ending arms race, security dilemma, and stability-instability paradox.
Climate Change as an International Security Issue
Authors: Mumtaz Tahira
Published: May 2023

The security paradigm of the world is constantly shifting, and compared to the military and traditional issues, non-military problems are now given significantly greater emphasis. Threats to a person's life and wellness that fall beyond the usual definition of security include climate change. Climate Change has taken a central position on the international forum. The purpose of this study is to analyze climate-driven environmental changes that are anticipated to influence some of the factors that threaten security; undermine livelihoods, increase migration, create political instability or other forms of insecurity, and weaken the capabilities of states to respond to challenges appropriately. Some major international issues such as population growth, pollution, melting of ice glaciers, floods, and droughts are interlinked with the above-said problems and are also becoming the core issues within states and borders. Climate Change may result eventually in a plethora of security risks and threats that can also exacerbate conflicts. The purpose of the study is to examine either climate change is a critical issue or whether the states just politicize it. This study aims to investigate how climate change affects security and public perception to recommend policy solutions to these ever-evolving problems. Security is a multidimensional approach that focuses on an individual’s welfare and well-being. Improvement of policymaking in handling the issue of climate change is also a very important factor for peace and human security at the international level.
On the verge of misplacement: Pacific Island and climate-induced migration
Authors: Urooj Tooba
Published: May 2023

The Pacific Island nations are severely impacted by climate change due to their comparatively miniscule geography, dense population concentration, and reliance on ecological systems for longevity. Pacific Islanders are compelled to leave their homes and migrate due to dwindling resources for their subsistence, freshwater, and nutrition, which leads to climate-persuaded migration. Such migration is likely to obliterate the indigenous perspectives and sense of national identity. Considering it, there is a good chance that the international reaction to global changing climate will result in a reduction in migration. The international accords are falling short of attaining their climate change objectives through the use of qualitative evaluation of secondary data gathered primarily from online sites, as well as scholarly articles. As a result, minimizing the effects of climate change is of prime significance & this global risk necessitates worldwide dedication to identify & address the terrible ramifications in order to lessen the increase in migration. The research comprehends migration & climate change’s linkage. The recent growing tendencies in migration would be illustrated by the study of Kiribati. The case study would also demonstrate how important it is to put existing international conventions into practice in order to protect Pacific Island communities and their right of statehood.
Gender inequality: A stumbling block in Pakistan’s socio-economic development
Authors: Shahid Faryal
Published: May 2023

Even though the modern world has made great strides, women still struggle to obtain and exercise their most fundamental rights specially in developing nations like Pakistan. The gender gap has grown due to patriarchal and misogynistic culture as well as a lack of women’s empowerment. Pakistan consistently scores low on international gender equality rankings despite having a constitution that provides equal social, economic, and political rights directly effecting GDP growth. In light of the current condition of state, inclusivity is a principle that is urgently needed. This paper will critically analyze the root causes of gender inequality in Pakistan, factors due to which gender equality has remained elusive. It will also explore that why gender equality in crucial for Pakistan not just as an agenda but for survival and economic prosperity and how the inclusion of women in the field of diplomacy, foreign policy, economics, decision-making can help in country’s growth.

Este trabajo de investigación presenta los modelos matemáticos de los sistemas eléctricos y de tracción que intervienen en la operación de un vehículo híbrido eléctrico. El modelado se aborda desde un enfoque backward para definir el flujo de energía entre el tren eléctrico y de tracción y cuantificar los consumos de combustible y energéticos.

Se emplea una optimización basada en algoritmo genético y una estrategia de control tipo , para determinar la óptima operación y dimensionamiento de la batería en tres diferentes ciclos de conducción estandarizados. Se presenta un estudio comparativo de consumo de combustible entre un vehículo de combustión interna y un vehículo híbrido eléctrico optimizado. Como conclusión general, de los tres ciclos de conducción y con los parámetros de vehículos analizados, el vehículo híbrido eléctrico optimizado consume alrededor de 36,8% menos de combustible que un vehículo de combustión interna. El modelo matemático y la metodología propuesta permite simular y optimizar vehículos híbridos eléctricos bajo diferentes grados de hibridación y condiciones de operación.
