Authors: Ramos Guette Pedro Luis
Published: June 2021

Objetivos: el fin de este estudio es tener un registro de los pacientes con diferentes tipos de cáncer que asisten a consulta a la instrucción y se confirman por patología; realizar clasificación TNM por estadios; determinar las frecuencias en ambos sexos y global de los casos incidentes y prevalentes. Materiales y métodos: se trata de un registro bidireccional. Se incluye información de 5.779 casos que consultaron a la institución durante el período de 2009 a 2012, se tuvieron en cuenta casos incidentes y prevalentes para efectuar una aproximación de las causas más frecuentes de cáncer que se atendieron, y se hizo la estadificación clínica de los casos incidentes y de los prevalentes donde existiera información pertinente que permitiera efectuarla, así como los datos demográficos más relevantes. Los análisis de sobrevida se llevarán a cabo en cada patología específica y se harán las respectivas publicaciones en la modalidad de cohortes analíticas bidireccionales o series de casos cuando el número de pacientes no permita un manejo analítico de los datos. Resultados: durante el período del 1º de enero de 2009 hasta el 31 de diciembre de 2012 se realizó el registro de todos los casos incidentes y prevalentes confirmados histológicamente; se identificó un total de 5.779 casos de cáncer ratificados. El cáncer de mama es el tipo más usual que consulta en la institución, con un total de 1.132 casos; le siguen en frecuencia: cáncer de piel no melanoma con 503, cérvix con 502, colorrectal con 464, próstata con 400, gástrico con 351, linfomas con 412, tiroides con 332, ovario con 262, leucemias con 216, cabeza y cuello con 210, mieloma con 147. La distribución por estadio muestra una presentación en estadios avanzados en la mayoría de los tipos de cáncer y la distribución por sexo está acorde con la información de la literatura. Conclusión: las frecuencias de los diferentes tipos de cáncer son muy similares a las que reporta Globocan 2008, a los registros de Cali y del Instituto Nacional de Cancerología, con la excepción del cáncer de pulmón, que está entre las principales causas de incidencia y prevalencia en el país, según información del registro de Cali y de Globocan 2008, pero en las unidades especializadas de oncología no se presenta con esa misma frecuencia, posiblemente por subdiagnóstico, diagnósticos muy tardíos, o porque no se remiten.

Published: June 2021

Introducción: la relación entre mortalidad y productividad científica en cáncer aún no ha sida explorada en Colombia. Nuestro objetivo fue estimar y caracterizar la productividad científica y su relación con la mortalidad por cáncer en general y según localizaciones específicas con mayor mortalidad para población adulta en Colombia entre los años 2000 a 2015. Métodos: se realizó un estudio ecológico de tendencia temporal en el marco de un análisis bibliométrico de registros de publicaciones con afiliaciones a instituciones colombianas registradas en Scopus, utilizando técnicas de búsqueda sistemática y evaluando la calidad del proceso. Se estimó y comparó la relación entre las variables mediante modelamiento econométrico. Resultados: se identificaron 2.645 registros de publicaciones, de los cuales 1.464 (55,3%) fueron seleccionados y caracterizados como producción científica colombiana (concordancia interobservador 92,96%; K = 0,859; IC95% 0,800-0,918). La mediana de autores, instituciones y citaciones por registro fue de 5, 3 y 2, respectivamente. El 52,7% de los registros tuvieron participación de al menos un autor con afiliación internacional. Las tres localizaciones específicas con mayor número de registros fueron cérvix, mama y estómago. Para el período estudiado, se observó una tendencia creciente en la producción científica frente a una disminución de la mortalidad por cáncer en general, constituyendo una relación proporcional inversa en el modelo de regresión lineal (coeficiente r = -0,958; p = 0,000; R2 = 0,911). Conclusión: la productividad científica colombiana en cáncer ha venido en aumento, en contraste con una disminución progresiva de la mortalidad. Sin embargo, esta producción tiene un componente predominantemente descriptivo, con relativamente baja participación interinstitucional y bajo impacto en la comunidad científica.

Introducción: el mieloma múltiple es una enfermedad incurable que requiere tratamientos efectivos de rescate. El daratumumab es un anticuerpo monoclonal disponible recientemente en nuestro medio. Describimos la experiencia clínica con este anticuerpo monoclonal en tres instituciones de referencia de Bogotá. Métodos: revisión retrospectiva de los casos tratados con daratumumab que hayan recibido al menos una dosis. Resultados: se incluyeron 10 pacientes. La mediana de líneas de tratamiento previas fue de 2,5 (1-6). El 80% había sido llevado a altas dosis de quimioterapia y autotrasplante. Todos los pacientes recibieron bortezomib en la primera línea de tratamiento y al 90% se le había administrado lenalidomida en algún momento. Los eventos relacionados con el esqueleto fueron la manifestación clínica más frecuente a la recaída (60%). La combinación de daratumumab con lenalidomida y dexametasona fue el régimen usualmente más usado. Tres pacientes presentaron reacciones adversas relacionadas con la infusión. El 70% de los pacientes tuvieron reacciones adversas hematológicas, siendo de grado 3 o 4 en 5 pacientes. Las reacciones no hematológicas más frecuentes fueron infecciosas. Un paciente manifestó cuadro de movimientos anormales durante el tratamiento. Llamativamente un paciente perdió la expresión de CD38. La mediana de ciclos fue de dos (1-4). La mortalidad durante el tratamiento fue del 40%. Seis pacientes actualmente tienen beneficio clínico del medicamento. Conclusión: los pacientes que logran completar más de dos ciclos presentan algún grado de respuesta o mejoría clínica. Las reacciones durante la primera infusión y las reacciones adversas hematológicas son frecuentes. Este es el primer trabajo cooperativo interinstitucional sobre intervenciones en mieloma múltiple.

La manifestación de mieloma múltiple (MM) asociado a síndrome de Sjögren (SS) es poco frecuente. Presentamos una paciente colombiana de 68 años de edad con MM IgG lambda y SS que responde satisfactoriamente a tratamiento antineoplásico. Paciente que consulta a urgencias por dolor torácico y síntomas de síndrome seco de reciente aparición. Su examen físico de ingreso solo evidencia dolor a la palpación del quinto arco costal izquierdo. Los reportes de laboratorio mostraban hemoglobina 8,3 g/dl, hematocrito 25%, velocidad de sedimentación globular 120 mm/h y creatinina 2,28 mg/dl. La electroforesis de proteínas reveló banda monoclonal en la región gamma. La inmunoelectroforesis reportó banda monoclonal IgG lambda. La dosificación de inmunoglobulinas evidenció elevación de IgG con disminución de IgM. Β2 microglobulina en suero 440 nmol/l. La serie ósea no reportó lesiones líticas ni alteraciones diferentes a cambios normales para la edad. Médula ósea con infiltración por células plasmáticas del 95% en diferentes estadios de maduración. No se dispone de estudios de citogenética. Se administraron cuatro ciclos de quimioterapia con vincristina, doxorrubicina y dexametasona (esquema VAD). Después de cinco meses postratamiento no hay evidencia clínica ni paraclínica de SS-MM. La presentación simultánea de estas dos enfermedades es extremadamente rara, y aunque se proponen puntos comunes en su fisiopatología, la evidencia disponible no es concluyente al respecto. Se requieren estudios poblacionales de asociaciones genético-ambientales para mejor entendimiento de su etiología.

Evaluation of “Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Group of India” (DIPSI) Criterion as a Diagnostic Test for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
Authors: Singh Aradhana , Singh Raj K , Aditya Vani
Published: June 2021

Introduction: In view of the alarmingly increasing incidence of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM), worldwide, as well as in India, a consensus to bring about standardization for diagnosis of GDM is needed. Internationally, the WHO 2013 criteria is being widely used, while (Diabetes In Pregnancy Study Group of India) DIPSI non fasting criteria is popularly used in India. There still remains many missed cases of GDM in India, which is a cause of concern. This study was done to compare the DIPSI non fasting, with WHO 2013 criteria for diagnosis of GDM.
Methods: this cross-sectional study included 530 pregnant women, attending antenatal clinic of a tertiary care center, of North India, from Feb. 2018 to March 2019 and fulfilling inclusion criteria. All women attending antenatal clinic, during the study period, were subjected to capillary glucose evaluation, 2 hours after 75g oral glucose load, irrespective of the timing of last meal (DIPSI), as part of routine antenatal checkup. After 7 days, only those 530 women, who turned up in fasting state, and fulfilled inclusion criteria, were enrolled in the study and subjected to fasting 75g, oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) (WHO 2013). Accuracy of DIPSI test was compared, to the fasting WHO 2013 criteria. Capillary glucose was measured using regular, well calibrated, point of care, “Optium Free Style” glucometer.
Results: Out of 107 women diagnosed to have GDM by WHO 2013 criteria, only 89 were diagnosed by the DIPSI criteria. DIPSI had a low sensitivity (83.18%) when compared to the WHO 2013 criteria,
Conclusion: This study showed that when non fasting DIPSI criteria was used as diagnostic criteria, 10.58% women with GDM, missed the diagnosis. Considering the adverse maternal and perinatal outcome of GDM, implication of missed diagnosis would be grave, especially in a developing country, like India. Hence, use of DIPSI criteria for diagnosing GDM should be reconsidered.

Early diagnosis of diabetes is clinically important in reducing health complications worldwide. In this respect HbA1c has become an accurate biomarker for the diagnosis of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and its complication [1]. In the present study HbA1c measured in subject of age <20,21-30,31-40 yrs and the level found to show high risk for DM in youngsters. Hence counselling at least once a month is warranted. To be most effective to reduce or prevent the prevalence in youngsters the importance of controlling HbA1c and keeping it at low level can be achieved by including in the curriculum right from school ageing. It will reduce the financial burden on state and central government authorities.

Retrospective Analysis of Functional Capacity of Patients with COVID-19 using 1 Minute Sit to Stand Test: A Physiotherapist’s Perspective
Authors: Sawant Snehal Sunil , Mhatre Bhavana Suhas , Wagh Vibhawari Manoj
Published: June 2021

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 has spread at an alarming rate worldwide. Its dominant feature is arterial hypoxemia seen due to ventilation perfusion mismatch. This causes reduced oxygen diffusion that affects functional capacity. Six-minute walk test is one of the commonly used test which is used to assess functional ability. However, it is more time-consuming and requires a 30-m corridor which is not always easily available. Studies have shown that the 1-minute sit to stand test (1-MSTST) is also useful for assessing functional capacity of patients with respiratory dysfunction. The aim of the study was to understand COVID-19 patient’s response to 1-MSTST with respect to number of repetitions, oxygen saturation, heart rate and perceived rate of exertion. Statistically significant difference was seen in pre and post parameters of heart rate (Pre: 91.73 ±17.12, Post: 116.06 ± 20.18, p< 0.0001); SpO2 (Pre: 97.04 ± 3.37, Post: 95.40 ± 3.93, p=0.005) and RPE (Pre: 0. 07 ± 0.25, Post: 1.49 ± 1.22, p< 0.0001). A mean of 21.26 ± 6.84 repetitions of sit to stand were performed in a minute. COVID-19 patients, thus, have significantly reduced functional capacity similar to that of patients with other respiratory dysfunctions. Thus, results of this study will enable therapist to plan the rehabilitation in COVID-19 patients to improve their functional capacity. This will enhance their ability to perform in activities of daily living and to participate in societal work and therefore will help in improving their quality of life.

Authors: Mistry Pooja Bharat , Palkar Anagha , Kumar Ajay
Published: June 2021

Background: Carpenters are exposed to wood dust during work. This leads to various health problems such as respiratory conditions and decrease in lung functions. Carpenters due to prolong exposure to wood dust causes a decrease in the peak expiratory flow rate. Buteyko breathing exercise is usually given the patients suffering from bronchial asthma this exercise helps to increase peak expiratory flow rate in asthma patients and is very useful.
Objective: The aim of the study is to find the effect of buteyko breathing exercise on peak expiratory flow rate in carpenters.
Methodology: An experimental study on a total of 30 carpenters among the age group of 35 to 45 years was included in the study. Peak expiratory flow rate of the carpenters were taken before giving Buteyko breathing exercise for 4 week, 2 session pre week. The difference of pre and post peak expiratory flow rate was then calculated. The data was statistically analysed using paired t-test.
Results: Buteyko breathing exercise improved the peak expiratory flow rate in carpenters after 4 weeks. (p<0.0001*)
Conclusion: Buteyko breathing exercise helps to improve peak expiratory flow rate in carpenters.

Key words: carpenters, peak expiratory flow rate, wood dust, Buteyko breathing exercise.

Published: June 2021

Background: Severe acute respiratory syndrome Corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the felon responsible for the extraordinary global pandemic of COVID-19 disease. As per the world health organization WHO) updates dated 12th April 2021 the total number of cases worldwide were 135,6,46,617 out of which 399,277 were reported in Saudi Arabia, as the number of the Covid patients is increased, the number of pregnant patients effected by the disease are also increasing. We therefore planned this study to do the clinical analysis of the pregnant patients with COVID-19 and to see the effect of the disease on the perinatal outcome.
Objective: The purpose of the study was to prove the null hypothesis that perinatal morbidity is increased with severity of the Covid 19 effected pregnant patients.
Material and Methods: It was a prospective observational study. All the patients who presented at term in labor with singleton pregnancy and with positive nasopharyngeal swab in last 10 days were included in the trial. While the women who had Preterm labor, multiple pregnancy and any other medical disorder were excluded from the study. The duration of the study was 6 months (01/09/2020- 28/02/2021) and was conducted in the labor ward of Dr. Sulaiman Al Habib Hospital, Sweidi, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Results: The total numbers of patients enrolled to the trial were 45. The 73% of the study population presented with mild symptoms (n=33) and moderate and severe symptoms were observed in 22.2% (n=10) and 4.4% (n=2) of the population respectively. The 5-minute Apgar score was compared in three groups and was found significantly lower in patients having moderate and severe Covid symptoms (P-value was 0.003). However, the difference in cord pH and NICU (neonatal intensive care unit) admission was not found statistically significant. No risk of the vertical transmission was found when calculated by doing the neonatal swab within 24 hours. The prevalence of Cesarean section was higher in patients having moderate and severe symptoms, though the difference was not found statistically significant. Female gender prevalence was observed in patients having moderate symptoms (70%, n=07).
Conclusion: On the basis of our observations we hereby reject our hypothesis that the perinatal morbidity is increased in patients having moderate or severe Covid symptoms.

Key words: Pregnancy, labour, Covid-19, neonate, vertical transmission, mode of delivery.

Age Features of the Socialisation of Children with Intellectual Disability in Special Psychological and Pedagogical Research
Authors: Kovalenko Viktoriia Ye.
Published: June 2021

Understanding the ontogenetic features of socialisation of children with intellectual disability is of great social significance. The purpose of the scientific article is to identify the age characteristics of socialisation of children with intellectual disability in special psychological and pedagogical research. In the course of the study, the following methods were used: analysis of general and special psychological and pedagogical literature; systematisation and generalisation of theoretical approaches to solving the problem of children with intellectual disabilities’ social development; definition of key concepts’ content; theoretical modelling to create a hypothetical model of socialisation of the child with intellectual disability at different ages. It was found that the socialisation of a personality with intellectual disability in preschool age was manifested in disorders of self-perception, decreased emotional sensitivity, ability to empathise, lack of understanding and adequate assessment of life situations, social skills’ disorders. Due to the existing behavioural disorders, younger students have a feeling of loneliness, lower social competence. The semantic sphere of adolescents with intellectual disability is manifested in the delayed development of semantic life orientations, low level of life satisfaction, unformed higher emotions, dominance of primitive interests, violations of self-control, dominance of low level of adaptation to the social environment. Senior students with intellectual disability have a distortion of self-awareness, which is manifested in undifferentiated and uncritical perceptions of adolescents about themselves, inadequate self-esteem. The established age features of children with intellectual disabilities’ social formation make it possible to work out a system of corrective influence on their social development taking into account the “structure of the disorder” based on the “bottom-up” correction principle

Authors: Shevchuk Olha P. , Yaroshchuk Natalia P.
Published: June 2021

The relevance of the study lies in covering the potential of meditative practices in the educational process. The purpose of the study is to carry out a theoretical analysis and outline the probable forms of integration of mindfulness practices into the educational process on the example of teachers, as well as to create a theoretical model of the influence of mindfulness practices on the teacher’s personality with professional destruction. The study highlights the main theoretical models of understanding mindfulness practices. The most effective and most frequently used techniques of awareness practice are analysed. The main educational centres of mindfulness in Ukraine are highlighted. Theoretical analysis of empirical research of foreign colleagues in the field of positive influence of mindfulness practices on the personality is carried out. The causes of professional destruction of teachers are analysed. The expediency and efficiency of this integration are argued. Among the positive changes due to the use of awareness practices by teachers are: improving the level of concentration and recollection; increasing attention to the needs and emotional states of students; creating emotional balance and preventing burnout; increasing the level of stress resistance; improving the quality of relationships at work and at home; increasing productivity and as a result of academic success; forming openness and readiness for selfdevelopment; development of the level of reflection and skills to regulate one’s emotions; improving the psychological climate in the classroom and maintaining overall psychological well-being; improving the quality of life and increasing the subjective feeling of happiness. The scientific novelty lies in the creation and operationalisation of a theoretical model of the influence of mindfulness practices on the teacher’s personality with professional destruction through the lens of cognitive, emotional, physiological, and behavioural levels. It is established that the practice of awareness is the main skill of presence in everything that happens to us, around and inside, in the body, feelings and thoughts
Discourse of Sexuality as a Way of Signifying Practices and Identities
Authors: Yatsyna Olena F.
Published: June 2021

The study analyses the current state of sexuality research in post-classical science. The social dimension of sexuality as a socio-cultural transformation is considered, in which the postmodern polyphony of social practices and the phenomenon of sexual identity are analysed. It is emphasised that with the transition of sexuality from the private to the public sphere, research in psychology, sociology, and philosophy became relevant; the liberalisation of sexual behaviour has intensified discussions related to identity and gender. The purpose of the study is to analyse the discourse of sexuality as a way of defining the semantic polyphony of discursive practices of partnership and sexual identity. Discursive representation of sexuality in the studied practices was carried out based on the results of qualitative analysis of text fragments of narrative interviews and cases from the Internet. The strategy of empirical research is based on the use of a discursive approach, the basis of which provides a socioconstructivist view of social reality. It is substantiated that in the process of constructing practices the discourse of sexuality activates the mechanism of semiotisation of sexuality, which is interpreted as free, open self-disclosure of sexuality. Semiotisation of sexuality enables an individual to objectify his or her experience of constructing discursive practices and to define his or her sexual identity in them. It follows that the discourse of sexuality affects the construction of partnership practices and the constitution of sexual identity. A set of signs of sexuality that objectify the categories: value; functionality; sexuality; relationships; meaning/motive; identity. It is concluded that the discourse of sexuality is formed by a combination of social and personal meanings that denote discursive practices and identities. The practical significance of the study is that the results obtained can be used in further research on the role of sexual discourse in the disclosure of female/male sexuality in partnership practices

The babassou plant (Attalea speciosa Mart. Ex. Spreng, Arecaceae) is an important palm tree in the state of Maranhão, northeastern Brazil. This plant is the main arboreal component in extensive geographical areas including agricultural areas. However, limited research studies exist on its role as an alternative pest host in this region. This study investigated the occurrence of Tibraca limbativentris Stal (1860) in young babassou palm trees, the effect of abiotic factors (temperature, solar radiation and rainfall) on the number of T. limbativentris adults and postures, and this insect’s spatial arrangement during the rice crop off-season. The research team inspected young babassou plants on a monthly basis in 2012 and 2013 to collect and quantify postures and adults. They collected a total of 1418 live adults, 13 dead and ten postures of T. limbativentris. There was a significant difference between the first and the other collections of live adults carried out in 2012 and 2013. Abiotic factors including rainfall, temperature and solar radiation, had no influence on the number of adults (alive and dead) and postures. The semivariogram adjusted to the Gaussian model showed that in 2013, the spatial distribution of living adults, that had an aggregate pattern, was highly dependent on the season. However, in 2012 there was a pure nugget effect. These results imply that young babassou plants are alternative T. limbativentris hosts.

My Name Is Salma: The Investigation of Factor-based Particularities Affecting a Violent Relationship and its Termination through the Scope of Feminist Literary Theory
Authors: Atiyat Reem
Published: June 2021

This article explores a domestic violence survivor's choice to take counteraction against her perpetrator and put an end to their destructive relationship. Research on domestic violence, including literary studies, fails to take into consideration women who decide to break free from violent relationships, and who manage successfully to do so at an early stage in the relationship, after only minimal abusive incidents (Okun 1986; Mann 2000). Salma is the protagonist of Fadia Faqir's My Name Is Salma. The hardships and obstacles Salma encounters to terminate her oppressive consuming is examined through a feminist perspective, a task that has not been addressed in the literature on domestic violence.
Black Republicans, Natives, and Anti-colonial Resistance in James Fenimore Cooper'sThe Oak Openingsand Andrew J. Blackbird'sThe History of the Ottawa and Chippewa Indians of Michigan
Authors: Wendland-Liu Joel
Published: June 2021

What historian Tiya Miles calls the “settler colonial slavery complex” mediated knotty and contradictory relations among Native peoples and Africans living in the U.S. James Fenimore Cooper's The Oak Openings, a novel about white settler colonialism set in West Michigan, sought to represent a white supremacist-controlling mediation of those relations. The Oak Openings works to project dominant white/U.S. values, ideologies, and cultural constructions of race and appropriate relations of racialized groups onto imagined literary Indians. While evidence for organized links between the Odawa and African-descended people is scant in Blackbird's History, his and his people's political commitments during the Civil War signaled alliance with the hundreds of thousands of self-liberating Black people who fought to destroy slavery and white supremacy. Blackbird's support for the “Black Republican” ticket in 1856 combined with his active opposition to “copperhead” Democrats registers a meaningful struggle against white supremacy. Like Cooper, the copperheads deployed a racial hierarchy that aimed to disrupt potential alliances among Native and African-descended peoples. Blackbird's History is simultaneously a “lamentation” of the failures of the anti-white supremacy struggle, but also, given the future-orientated aims of the text, a preservation of the embers of that alignment of the oppressed for future use.

Poultry industry is one of the most booming industry in the Cox’s bazar district. This study was carried out to assess the hygienic practices and also to improve the broiler meat safety. Currently, every country in the world is increasing their effort to improve food safety to reduce the food safety risk. The data for this study was collected from the desk research, observation, survey, and interviews of poultry farmers. Twenty broiler farmers were surveyed by using questionnaire. The study revealed that the majority of the farmers are doing broiler farming as their main source of income. The flock size is around 501-1000 of the larger number of farms and on an average farmers are rearing 5.57 cycles per year. The study recommended some implication to improve hygienic practices of broiler and to reduce the foodborne illness of the district as well.
Gaseous nitrogen losses from pig slurry fertilisation: can they be reduced with additives in a wheat crop?
Authors: Mateo-Marín Noemí , Isla Ramón , Quílez Dolores
Published: June 2021

Aim of the study: The use of pig slurry as fertiliser is associated with gaseous nitrogen (N) losses, especially ammonia (NH3) and nitrous oxide (N2O), leading to environmental problems and a reduction of its fertiliser value. This study evaluates, in an irrigated wheat crop, the effect of different additives mixed with pig slurry to decrease NH3 and N2O losses.Area of study: Middle Ebro valley, SpainMaterials and methods: The treatments were: i) non-N-fertilised control, ii) pig slurry (PS), iii) pig slurry with the urease inhibitor monocarbamide dihydrogen sulphate (PS-UI), iv) pig slurry with a microbial activator in development (PS-A), and v) pig slurry with the nitrification inhibitor 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (PS-NI). Pig slurry was applied at a target rate of 120 kg NH4+-N ha-1. Ammonia volatilisation was measured using semi-opened static chambers after treatments application at presowing 2016 and side-dressing 2017. Nitrous oxide emissions were measured using static closed chambers after treatments application at the 2017 and 2018 side-dressing.Main results: Ammonia volatilisation was estimated to be 7-9% and 19-23% of NH4+-N applied after presowing and side-dressing applications, respectively. Additives were not able to reduce NH3 emissions in any application moment. PS-NI was the only treatment being effective in reducing N2O emissions, 70% respect to those in PS treatment. Crop yield parameters were not affected by the application of the additives because of the no effect of additives controlling NH3 losses and the low contribution of N2O losses to the N balance (<1 kg N2O-N ha-1).Research highlights: The use of 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate would be recommended from an environmental perspective, although without grain yield benefits.

A total of 228 students of the following baccalaureate courses participated: Physical Education, Nursing, Medicine, Nutrition, and Psychology. The study was conducted in the second semester of 2019 through an online questionnaire with 27 closed and 4 open questions. Simple frequencies, central tendency measures, and correlation tests were used to analyze the data. The IRAMUTEQ software was used to analyze the answers to open questions.Results: The study demonstrated that the Nursing students had more contact with the patient safety theme and greater confidence to perform techniques during clinical practice. In general, students pointed out positive responses regarding knowledge about patient safety, such as: recognition of the possibility of errors, the importance of communication, and learning from mistakes.Conclusion: The results may contribute to strengthening teaching about patient safety in universities.
Amparo Dávila: la escritura como refugio ante lo siniestro
Authors: Eudave Cecilia
Published: June 2021

En la presente reflexión, se abordarán algunos de los recursos literarios, desde la perspectiva de la investigación y la creación, en la obra de Amparo Dávila. Primero, su actitud poética: cómo construye sus universos amparándose en los géneros no miméticos, su relación con el lenguaje y sus premisas de creación. Después, la manera de perfilar sus personajes y sus atmósferas inquietantes a través de una sutil relación con el tiempo y el espacio, siendo aquellos el sello característico de su obra. Finalmente, abordaremos el manejo de la monstruosidad y lo siniestro en sus historias como medio para representar el contexto social que habita, señalando que su escritura es un refugio y un intersticio para resistir, para evidenciar las situaciones sociales que violentaron a las mujeres de su época.

Published: June 2021

Los cambios en la realidad familiar traen consigo, entre otras cuestiones, una dificultad cada vez más creciente en el desempeño de las funciones parentales. En este ámbito, los programas de parentalidad positiva se erigen como un recurso que aporta herramientas y habilidades para hacer frente a las necesidades de los hijos e hijas. Sin embargo, la abundancia y variedad de estos programas hacen necesaria una profunda revisión y clasificación. En este artículo se proporciona una revisión de la perspectiva de la parentalidad positiva con el objetivo de aportar una exploración inicial para los investigadores y las investigadoras sociales de esta materia de estudio. Para ello, en un primer apartado, se exponen los elementos constitutivos de la parentalidad positiva. Un segundo apartado presenta las diferentes herramientas que la Unión Europea ha desplegado respecto a la parentalidad positiva. Finalmente, se revisan los elementos clave que siguen los programas y acciones de parentalidad positiva, distinguiendo por su mayor calidad a aquellos que están basados en la evidencia.

Authors: Mercurio Ezequiel N.
Published: June 2021

Las personas con discapacidad intelectual y psicosocial se encuentran sobrerrepresentadas en el ámbito de la justicia penal. La falta de identificación adecuada en las primeras etapas suele perdurar a lo largo de todo el proceso penal. Objetivo: determinar qué cantidad de personas con discapacidad intelectual o psicosocial que se encontraban detenidas sospechosas de la comisión de un delito fueron detectadas por parte del personal médico de la policía en la Ciudad de Buenos Aires. Materiales y métodos: estudio observacional de tipo retrospectivo de 70 casos de personas detenidas. Resultados: la muestra analizada fue de 47 casos de personas detenidas. De estas, 29 presentaban diagnóstico de discapacidad intelectual y 18 de discapacidad psicosocial. El personal médico de la policía realizó 61 evaluaciones. Sólo en el 8 % de las evaluaciones se detectó discapacidad. En ninguno caso se implementaron apoyos y/o ajustes en el procedimiento. Se deben implementar estrategias para mejorar la detección temprana de las personas con discapacidad sometidas a un proceso penal.
Um estudo sobre uso do Open Banking entre universitários na Grande São Paulo utilizando o Modelo de Prontidão e Adoção de Tecnologia (TRAM)
Authors: Valarini Heitor , Nakano Davi
Published: June 2021

O compartilhamento de dados bancários de clientes entre as instituições financeiras é chamado de Open Banking.  Ele permite a consolidação das informações de diferentes contas bancárias em um único local e a realização de transferências e pagamentos sem a necessidade de acesso a um banco específico.  Sua adoção visa o aumento da competição e eficiência no mercado financeiro, e atualmente está em regulamentação pelo Banco Central do Brasil.  Este artigo utiliza o Technology Readiness and Acceptance Model (TRAM) para avaliar a intenção de uso do Open Banking entre jovens universitários. Os resultados obtidos indicam que a utilidade percebida é afetada pelo otimismo, desconforto e insegurança, enquanto a facilidade de uso percebida é afetada somente pela inovatividade.  Dado que os modelos de aceitação de tecnologia são sensíveis ao contexto cultural de cada país, este estudo contribui para a literatura, e oferece uma visão do potencial de adoção do Open Banking entre a parcela da população que será grande usuária dessa tecnologia.
Towards Affective TV with Facial Expression Recognition
Authors: Valentim Pedro A. , Barreto Fábio , Muchaluat-Saade Débora C.
Published: June 2021

Facial recognition techniques, fantasized in fiction movie classics, have already become reality. Such technology opens up a wide range of possibilities for different kinds of systems. From the point of view of interactive applications, facial expression as input data may be more immediate and more trustworthy to the user’s sentiment than the click of a button. For interactive television, facial expression recognition could be used for bringing broadcasters and viewers closer, enabling TV content to be personalized by the user sentiment. In fact, not only facial expression recognition, but any interaction that enables affective computing. In this work, we call this concept Affective TV. In order to support it, this work proposes facial expression recognition for digital TV applications. Our proposal is implemented and evaluated in the Ginga-NCL middleware, a digital TV standard used in several Latin American countries.
Jean-Luc Marion and the Phénoménologie de la Donation as First Philosophy
Authors: Trabbic Joseph G. ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: June 2021

Jean-Luc Marion proposes what he calls the “phenomenology of givenness” (phénoménologie de la donation) as the true “first philosophy.” In this paper I consider his critique of previous first philosophies and his argument for the phenomenology of givenness as their replacement. I note several problems with the phenomenology of givenness and conclude that it does not seem ready yet to assume the title of “first philosophy.”
