Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan perilaku asertif peserta didik melalui bimbingan kelompok menggunakan teknik sosiodrama. Perilaku asertif adalah kemampuan untuk mengkomunikasikan apa yang diinginkan, dirasakan, dan dipikirkan kepadaorang lain secara jujur dan terbuka dengan tetap menghormati hak pribadi dan orang lain. Peserta didik yang mampu menerapkan perilaku asertif dalam kehidupan sehari-hari akan memiliki ketrampilan sosial yang dibutuhkannya dalam pergaulan. Rancangan penelitian yang digunakan adalah menggunakan metode Deskriptif Kualitatif. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan adalah observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Tindakan yang dilaksanakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pemberian layanan bimbingan kelompok teknik sosiodrama, yaitu pemberian layanan bimbingan kepada sekelompok individu dengan cara bermain peran guna memecahkan masalah yang dialaminya yaitu kurangnya berperilaku asertif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa bimbingan kelompok teknik sosiodrama dapat meningkatkan perilaku asertif siswa Kelas X SMAN 1 Maliku. Melalui sosiodrama, siswa dapat secara langsung merasakan manfaat layanan yaitu dapat mempraktekkan cara berperilaku asertif sehingga keterampilan tersebut dapat diterapkan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Keberhasilan layanan bimbingan kelompok teknik sosiodrama menunjukkan bahwa sosiodrama tepat digunakan dalam meningkatkan perilaku asertif siswa. Perubahan sikap yang terjadi setelah mengikuti sosiodrama adalah sebagian besar peserta didik mampu menerapkan perilaku asertif dalam kehidupan sehari-hari terutama dalam lingkungan sosial teman sebayanya, sehingga peserta didik merasakan manfaat dari perubahan tingkah lakunya, misalkan ada perubahan beberapa nilai karena peserta didik dapat mengumpulkan tugas tepat waktu dan dapat belajar dengan cukup, rasa percaya dalam dirinya meningkat, peserta didik lebih peka dalam memahami apa yang diinginkan oleh dirinya sendiri dan apa yang tidak diinginkan oleh dirinya, apa yang bermanfaat bagi dirinya sendiri dan apa yang tidak bermanfaat. Selain itu peserta didik lebih aktif menyuarakan pendapat ketika rapat organisasi, dan mampu untuk berkata tidak apabila tidak setuju dengan hal-hal yang dibicarakan ketika rapat dengan mempertimbangkan perasaan teman sebayanya.

Catulo, c. 16: his pilosis, una nueva interpretación
Authors: Carmignani Marcos
Published: August 2021

En Catulo 16.10 se encuentra la expresión his pilosis, que la crítica ha vinculado, acertadamente, con lo obsceno. Este trabajo pretende sumar a esa lectura la consideración de his pilosis como una expresión metapoética, es decir, con el sentido de que los pilosi aludidos son aquellos “peludos”, i.e. torpes, rústicos, incapaces de entender una poesía como la de Catulo, que se destaca por un refinado pulido de las palabras. Para ello, se analizarán cuatro elementos: 1) la interpretación general del carmen, 2) una frase de las Epistulae de Séneca que puede ser de mucha utilidad para entender nuestra propuesta, 3) la cuestión de la terminología latina vinculada con la pilosidad, y 4) la utilización que el propio Catulo realiza en otros carmina de esta terminología.
Cerraba los ojos para vivir. El tema del dolor del destierro en textos autobiográficos de Héctor Tizón
Authors: Liñán Alejandra
Published: August 2021

El propósito de este artículo es analizar y comprender la relación que se establece entre el tema clásico del viaje de exilio y la producción literaria del escritor argentino Héctor Tizón y se centra en los tópicos del dolor de la partida y del sentimiento de pérdida de la patria, tematizados en algunos capítulos del libro No es posible callar (2004). Entre las formas de emergencia de los clásicos en estos textos autobiográficos de Héctor Tizón, seleccionamos la asimilación de Ovidio como paradigma del dolor del exilio, con la particularidad de que, en su recepción, el sentido ha sido mediado por otro autor; así también, la figura de Odiseo, aportada al diálogo intertextual por el poema Ulysses de A. L. Tennyson. El enfoque teórico-metodológico se enmarca en la literatura comparada y recurre al concepto de transtextualidad (Genette, 1989), que fundamenta el tramado de las relaciones entre los diferentes textos. Asimismo, desde el punto de vista de la recepción clásica, algunos conceptos operativos, como apropiación y diálogo (Hardwick, 2003), contribuyen a que el trabajo crítico avance en la explicación de las nuevas significaciones producidas en la recepción creativa de nuestro autor.
Motivos griegos como método compositivo en la historieta Sereno de Luciano Vecchio
Authors: Martignone Hernán
Published: August 2021

Construida en parte sobre el modelo narrativo del manga Sailor Moon y en parte sobre el cómic de superhéroes norteamericano, Sereno de Luciano Vecchio se presenta como una ficción original, de múltiples lecturas, en la que diversos elementos del mundo griego clásico encuentran su lugar. En el presente artículo me propongo analizar el funcionamiento de dichos elementos (míticos, lingüísticos, icónicos) como método compositivo de una obra con un carácter marcadamente multicultural. En la serie se suceden menciones o alusiones que abarcan desde la Titánide Teia (que da nombre a la ciudad y aparece como personaje mítico) hasta creaciones como Fotofobos, Pánico o Pathos, pasando por los pinups “Sirena” y “Épicx”, por lo que entiendo que se trata de un principio constructivo de la ficción (presente en los títulos de los capítulos, en los personajes, en ideas puestas en narración), de esas tramas que Vecchio arma para reinterpretar el género superheroico como productor de “mitos modernos”.

Published: August 2021

This study aims to find out how the changes made by academic librarians in the era of disruption so that the profession of librarians is not extinct. The type of method used in this research is qualitative research with a descriptive approach. This research involved five librarians from several private university libraries in Bandung as key informants. The selection of informants was carried out using a purposive sampling technique with the intention that the selected informants according to certain criteria were relevant to the context of the problem in this study. The results showed that as a profession, librarians cannot work alone, meaning librarians need to collaborate with anyone such as lecturers, researchers, students, and the community. Examples of collaboration that can be done such as making software and doing various activities. Academic librarians in the era of disruption are also required to be willing to learn to be ready to follow all changes and adapt to the environment. Academic librarians must also continually update their knowledge and insights about research trends so that librarians can assist users in conducting scientific research and publications. The conclusion from this study shows that there are several efforts that can be done by librarians so that the librarian profession does not become extinct, namely collaborating, learning, and helping users.

El paisaje tras la interpretación. Agropastoralismo y taskscapes en el Valle Calchaquí Norte (Dto. de Cachi, Salta Argentina)
Authors: Jakel Andrés
Published: August 2021

Este trabajo apunta a dar fundamento teórico-metodológico al estudio arqueológico de la dimensión espacial de la vida en la región andina del Valle Calchaquí Norte(Dto.de Cachi, Salta, Noroeste Argentino)en el contexto actual de desarrollo de las llamadas corrientes post-interpretativas. En particular, se discute el concepto de paisaje(landscape)como categoría analítica representacional y se propone la noción de taskscape acuñada por Tim Ingold como alternativa no-representacional para el abordaje analítico de la cuestión espacial en este planteo de investigación.Se procede entonces, a mostrar la aplicabilidad de este concepto clave, y otros del armado teórico de Ingold, para el estudio del modo de vida agropastoril en el área mencionada, mostrando su compatibilidad y potencia explicativa a la hora de analizar los resultados obtenidos hasta el momento.Por último, se destacan dos problemas de tipo teórico–metodológico, que surgen de la aplicación de estos conceptos: a)su aparente incompatibilidad con la definición entidades discretas y estables como unidades de análisis para el abordaje metodológico, y b)una posible carencia en la articulación con nociones propias de la ontología local que esta propuesta teórica en principio no contempla, y que resulta fundamental para una aproximación más completa a la complejidad del modo de vida en el Valle.
Minería, patrimonio cultural y público visitante

Published: August 2021

En este artículo se presenta un análisis sobre las valoraciones del público visitante de la  exhibición “ADN Olavarría. Raíces Mineras”, vinculada con la historia minera local y que constituye parte de su patrimonio cultural. Dicha propuesta fue realizada durante 2019 en la ciudad de Olavarría provincia de Buenos Aires, en el marco por los festejos del centenario del primer despacho de cemento portland de Argentina. Se realizó un relevamiento a partir de encuestas semiestructuradas a más de 100 visitantes. Los principales resultados demuestran un desconocimiento general del público sobre los orígenes de la actividad minera local y un reconocimiento de otros aspectos de la identidad olavarriense como constitutivos de su ADN. Este estudio habilitó una discusión basada en cuatro ejes principales: la interpretación del patrimonio desde la museografía, la valoración del aporte de los investigadores y especialistas, la activación verticalista de un repertorio patrimonial, y el rol de los investigadores como activadores de procesos de puesta en valor del patrimonio cultural local.

Differential expression of collagen type IV alpha 6 chain in human epithelial ovarian cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: August 2021

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal gynecologic cancer (1). We performed discovery of genes associated with epithelial ovarian cancer and of the high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) subtype, using published microarray data (2, 3) to compare global gene expression profiles of normal ovary or fallopian tube with that of primary tumors from women diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer or HGSC. We identified the gene encoding collagen type IV alpha 6 chain, COL4A6, as among the genes whose expression was most different in epithelial ovarian cancer as compared to the normal fallopian tube. COL4A6 expression was significantly lower in high-grade serous ovarian tumors relative to normal fallopian tube. COL4A6 expression correlated with progression-free survival in patients with ovarian cancer. These data indicate that expression of COL4A6 is perturbed in epithelial ovarian cancers broadly and in ovarian cancers of the HGSC subtype. COL4A6 may be relevant to pathways underlying ovarian cancer initiation (transformation) or progression.
Angiotensin Receptor Blockers Might be Preferred Over Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors in COVID-19 Management
Authors: Kelleni Mina

Young and Miller, Political Communication in Oxford Handbook of Poli Psych 3rd ed
Authors: Young Dannagal G.
Published: August 2021

This chapter argues that the conventional theories and processes at the core of the discipline of political communication are rooted in assumptions that no longer hold and contexts that no longer exist. Today’s media users experience decentralized, interpersonal, horizontal, networked politically relevant communication every day. And they experience this socially-contextualized messaging within a system predicated on the economics and logics of micro-segmentation. We assert that these are qualitative shifts that necessitate a fundamental reconsideration and reimagining of the field of political communication. Specifically, we focus on how the shift away from traditional mass media models to networked, decentralized media systems through digital technologies has crucial implications for: a) the scope of what constitutes political communication and b) the integration of political psychology into the study of political communication.
Computational systems analysis of differential gene expression in brain metastatic breast cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: August 2021

We utilized readily available computational tools (1-5) and published microarray data (6-9) to understand in an unbiased fashion the most distinguishing molecular features of differentially expressed genes in brain metastatic tissues from humans with metastatic breast cancer, and their genomic sites. We present our findings here, which reveal enrichment for function at the Golgi apparatus, an overlap of molecular signatures with development of the lip and the craniofacial structure, and demonstrate that the genomic sites of the most differentially expressed genes in metastasis to the brain in human breast cancer are enriched for binding sites for Barx2 and IKZF1, may be occupied by Aebp2 and the histone lysine methyltransferase KMT2H, and marked at the chromatin at H3K79me2 and H3K4me3.
Characterising Residual Limb Morphology and Prosthetic Socket Design based on Expert Clinician Practice
Authors: Dickinson Alexander , Diment Laura , Morris Robin , Pearson Emily , Hannett Dominic , Steer Joshua
Published: August 2021

Functional, comfortable prosthetic limbs depend on personalised sockets, currently designed using an iterative, expert-led process, which can be expensive and inconvenient. Computer aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) offers enhanced repeatability, but far more use could be made from clinicians’ extensive digital design records. Knowledge-based socket design using smart templates could collate successful design features and tailor them to a new patient. Based on 67 residual limb scans and corresponding sockets, this paper develops a method of objectively analysing personalised design approaches by expert prosthetists, using machine learning: principal component analysis (PCA) to extract key categories in anatomic and surgical variation, and K-Means Clustering to identify local ‘rectification’ design features. Rectification patterns representing Total Surface Bearing and Patella Tendon Bearing design philosophies are identified automatically by PCA, which reveals trends in socket design choice for different limb shapes that match clinical guidelines. Expert design practice is quantified by measuring the size of local rectifications identified by k-means clustering. Implementing smart templates based on these trends requires clinical assessment by prosthetists and does not substitute training. This study provides methods for population-based socket design analysis, and example data, which will support developments in CAD/CAM clinical practice and accuracy of biomechanics research.
We predict a riot: inequality, relative deprivation and collective destruction in the lab (Dezecache, Allen, von Zimmermann & Richardson, in press)
Authors: Dezecache Guillaume , Allen James M. , von Zimmermann Jorina , Richardson Daniel C.
Published: August 2021

Riots are unpredictable and dangerous. Our understanding of the factors that cause riots are based on correlational observations of population data, or post hoc introspection of individuals. To complement these accounts, we developed innovative experimental techniques, investigated the psychological factors of rioting, and explored their consequences with agent-based simulations. We created a game, ‘Parklife’, that physically co-present participants played using smartphones. In two teams, participants tapped on their screen to grow trees and flowerbeds on separate but adjacent virtual parks. Participants could also tap to vandalise the other team’s park. In some conditions, we surreptitiously introduced inequity between the teams so that one (the disadvantaged team) had to tap more for each reward. The experience of inequity caused the disadvantaged team to engage in more destruction, and to report higher relative deprivation and frustration. Agent-based models suggested that acts of destruction were driven by the interaction between individual level of frustration and the team’s behaviour. Our results provide insights into the psychological mechanisms underlying collective action.
Parenting daughters does not increase monetary prosocial behavior: evidence from the Dictator game
Authors: Leder Johannes , Niszczota Paweł
Published: August 2021

Prior work suggests that parenting daughters makes the preferences of men more in line with those of women. We use behavior in a Dictator Game as a measure of pure social preferences, to test whether parenting daughters increases prosociality, specifically charitable giving. Data is sourced from the German Socio-Economic Panel, where 1,461 participants decided how to split a 50€ endowment between themselves and (separately) a needing domestic or foreign recipient. Our results suggest that parenting daughters does not make men (nor women) more prosocial. The findings remain null across different operationalizations and analytical procedures.
An Empirical Examination of Representational Equity in Consolidated Governments, 1965-2002
Authors: Acuff Christopher
Published: August 2021

Research on the impacts of city-county consolidation often focus on issues relating to efficiency, effectiveness, and economic development; yet, relatively few studies have addressed the issue of racial and ethnic minority representation. While existing research is limited, findings indicate that consolidating city and county governments dilutes minority voting strength and has a disparate impact on minority representation. However, it is not clear if this is a nationwide trend, particularly in preclearance states previously covered by the Voting Rights Act. Thus, the question becomes, does consolidation negatively affect minority representation, and to what extent? This study employs a quasi-experimental interrupted time-series analysis in order to ascertain the overall impact of consolidation on the descriptive representation of African Americans since 1965. Results indicate that while representation has increased in recent decades, there are discernible declines in following consolidation, and noticeable representational disparities in counties previously covered by the Voting Rights Act.
On the Authority of the Market
Authors: Adler Laura , Hirschman Daniel
Published: August 2021

This paper examines “the market” as a source of authority in valuation debates. We argue that the market offers two interrelated forms of authority: epistemic and coercive. Markets have epistemic authority insofar as prices are interpreted as unique measures of otherwise unobservable preferences. In turn, markets have coercive authority because making economic decisions according to market prices is understood to be obligatory. Invoking the authority of the market thus diffuses responsibility from the actor to the market. We illustrate the use of the market as a source of authority in two cases: the exclusion of unpaid housework from calculations of gross domestic product and employers’ pay-setting practices. National income statisticians argue that the absence of market prices for housework renders housewives' true economic value uncalculable. Employers interpret a candidate’s past salary as “the market price” indicating that individual's value, and thus use salary history as the basis for salary offers. These cases illustrate the importance of treating the market as a cultural object and, in particular, as a potent form of justification in debates over value.
Los aprendizajes no-académicos en las prácticas educativas
Authors: Silas Casillas Juan Carlos , Cueva de la Garza Susana
Published: August 2021

Societies, since ancient times, have established different types of institutions and educational practices to train their citizens, especially the youngest. Sometimes, these are complex educational systems, with levels and outcomes functionally differentiated; in others, from rather simple or generic institutions or even independent educational initiatives with their own purposes and sources.

Reports of international organizations and educational ministries of many countries relate the level of development in the societies with a higher specialization of their educational systems and show that, as economic and cultural interconnection advances, the educational systems tend to orientate towards measurable and comparable competencies. In this sense, they take a similar shape, as well as the elements used to evaluate their impact and achievement.
Introduction
Authors: Laketa Sunčana , Fregonese Sara , Masson Damien
Published: August 2021

This special section addresses how the spatiality of terrorism and security responses mobilize and impact the realm of experience. The articles presented here expose how terrorism is encountered as a felt experience by urban residents in Europe through an analysis that encompasses several realms including the body, the intimate, the domestic, and the urban public space. These works develop existing scholarship on the European urban geographies of terrorism, by looking beyond established approaches to normative range of actors and infrastructures that underlie terrorism and counter-terror security responses, and by exploring the fine-grained connections between felt experience, urban space, and global politics. Moreover, in focusing on the experiential landscapes of terror, we start exploring geographies where healing, trust, and societal reconnection can be imagined in the wake of terror.
The State of Emergency at Home
Authors: Hergon Flora
Published: August 2021

This article focuses on the massive house searches and house arrests that occurred during the state of emergency in France between 2015 and 2017. It draws from critical studies on counterterrorism as well as sociology of the intimate to analyze the aftermath of these measures on the Muslim households that experienced these procedures without being sentenced afterward. It examines how house arrests and searches redefine the respondents’ relationships to their domestic space and local environment as these places become spaces of fear, surveillance, discipline, and self-control. The analysis reveals a set of embodied and discursive strategies to prove an innocence that implies a reappropriation of state categories around social integration and the promotion of an acceptable and non-suspect religiosity.
“What about Last Time?”
Authors: Henriksen Ann-Karina
Published: August 2021

The article explores how violence as actuality and potentiality shapes the lives of Danish at-risk girls and young women. The article draws on seven months of ethnographic fieldwork in Copenhagen and includes 25 girls and young women aged 13 to 23 who have all experienced using physical violence. Centering on a single young woman’s narrative, violence is analyzed as a meaningful social practice intimately linked to navigating violent social terrains and managing precarious everyday lives characterized by instability and marginalization. Drawing on the concept of potentiality, it is argued that violent interactions are shaped by both the fear of oncoming danger and the desire for powerful social positions. This perspective opens a micro-longitudinal perspective, which explores situational dynamics of violence through time, hereby contributing to micro-sociological studies of violence.
“I Showed You What I Thought Was Appropriate”
Authors: Roks Robert A.
Published: August 2021

This article highlights some aspects of doing longitudinal ethnography in criminology. By zooming in and reflecting on some of the key moments and methodological choices made over the course of more than 15 years of fieldwork among members of a Dutch gang, this article illustrates that relations with informants have the potential to strengthen over time, but that building rapport and trust with (active) offenders is not necessarily a linear process. In addition to voicing the emotional and evocative aspects of these methodological deliberations, this “true confession” is meant to spark some more debate on how longitudinal fieldwork in criminology impacts field relations by critically examining not only the performativity of informants, but also of researchers.
Probability of Default Bank Umum di Indonesia: Alternatif dalam Implementasi Sisitem Premi Deferensial
Authors: Wijoyo Nugroho Agung
Published: August 2021

The Indonesian Deposit Insurance Corporation (LPS) initially imposed the flat rate premium system, the same premium rate for all banks, which is 0.2% of the total third party funds (DPK) of commercial banks. However; when there is a change in the value of deposits guaranteed, LPS needs to change from the flat rate premium system to the Differential Premium System. This study uses Probability of Default (PoD), derived from the Merton Model (1974), for each individual Commercial Bank in Indonesia in implementing the Differential Premium System as the mandate of Article 15 paragraph (1) of the Law. Thus, each individual bank will pay a premium in accordance with the probability of default to LPS. This study finds that the average of probability of default of all commercial banks in the period 2002-2014 reaches 57.12%. Bank that has the smallest average Probability of Default (PoD) is Bank 151Â  with a PoD of 14.10% and an AA category rating. The second position is Bank 427 with a PoD of 18.20% and a rating of A. While the third position is Bank 14 with a PoD of 18.70% also with a rating of A. This study finds that the Differential Premium System in Indonesia can be implemented, given that LPS revenue will not be reduced much or at least close to the flat rate premium system, when LPS imposes the Differential Premium System.

By using panel data regression analysis, the estimation results show that the fiscal conditions and regional financial performance have a significant and positive effect on inclusive economic growth in the regions.
Macroeconomic and Public Health Policies amid COVID-19 Pandemic: Global Financial Sectors' Responses
Authors: Sapulette Militcyano Samuel , Santoso Teguh
Published: August 2021

Given the unprecedentedness and scale of the COVID-19 pandemic, the impact and effectiveness of fiscal, monetary, and public health policies in response to the pandemic are largely unknown. This paper aims at presenting empirical evidence on the response of the financial sector to fiscal, monetary, and public health policies implemented during the pandemic. Using random effect estimation with data from 40 economies, we find that the financial sector does not respond significantly to fiscal stimulus, the monetary policy relaxation during the pandemic also has less magnitude of impact, stricter physical containment measures are also found to be positively and significantly affect financial sector performance.
Louise Erdrich's Portrayal of Spatial Predicament of Pregnant Bodies in Tracks
Authors: Rehman Fasih ur , Mukhi Gohar Munir , Sumaira Qamar
Published: August 2021

The present study aims to revisit Native American woman's experience of out of placeness due to her pregnancy in Louise Erdrich's Tracks. The study argues that the protagonist experiences spatial identity crisis within the socio-spatial paradigms. The present work reread the novel through the theoretical formulations of Tim Cresswell and Iris Marian Young. The notion of out of placeness is constituted upon the premise that an individual's failure to develop belongingness to a particular space and place is caused by multiple factors. Pregnancy, as Young asserts, destabilizes an individual's idea of a 'subject'. With these theoretical underpinnings, that study maintains that the protagonist of the novel experiences out of placeness and develops a fractured spatial identity in the novel.
Implications of the Enigmatic Rise of Taliban: A Historical Perspective
Authors: Hussain Fayaz
Published: August 2021

The rise of the Taliban in Afghanistan in 1994 was the opening of a new chapter in the current Afghan history while Afghanistan's socio-political environment was in disorder. The emergence of the Taliban was a new phenomenon, and no one expected that an ordinary militia would become a strong power in Afghanistan. Taliban was a highly secret force that had neither formal structure nor any formal membership. It was also believed that the Taliban were Pakistan protege. Their rise to power in Afghanistan had a profound impact on Pakistan's society. Violence, drug trade, corruption and soared with the rise of the Taliban. Pakistan aimed in the militia support a friendly regime in Kabul and strategic equilibrium in the region. However, the Taliban harsh policies against women and Human Rights violations invoked international criticism. Taliban had no economic vision except for revenue from the drug trade and smuggling of goods via the Durand Line. Their policies had serious implications for the region and the globe. The Taliban support and provision of sanctuaries to Al-Qaida invited international sanctions. The September 11 Terrorist attack on US soil ultimately turned into the fall of the Taliban.

OBJECTIVE

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of elderly patients with type 2 odontoid fractures treated with an instrumented posterior fusion.

METHODS

Ninety-three consecutive patients older than 65 years of age in whom a type 2 odontoid fracture had been treated with a variety of C1–2 posterior screw fixation techniques were retrospectively reviewed.

RESULTS

The average age was 78 years (range 65–95 years). Thirty-seven patients had an additional fracture, 30 of which involved C1. Three patients had cervical spinal cord dysfunction due to their injury. All patients had comorbidities. The average total hospitalization was 9.6 days (range 2–37 days). There were 3 deaths and 19 major complications, the most common of which was pneumonia. No patient suffered a vertebral artery injury. Imaging studies were obtained in 64 patients at least 12 months postsurgery (mean 19 months). Fusion was assessed by dynamic radiographs in all cases and with a CT scan in 80% of the cases. Four of the 64 patients did not achieve fusion (6.25% overall). All patients in whom fusion failed had undergone C1 lateral mass fixation and C2 pars (1/29, 3.4%) or laminar (3/9, 33.3%) fixation.

CONCLUSIONS

Instrumented posterior cervical fusions may be performed in elderly patients with acceptable morbidity and mortality. The fusion rate is excellent except when bilateral C2 translaminar screws are used for axis fixation.

Triage in the context of COVID-19 pandemic: conflict of law and ethics
Authors: Marusenko Roman
Published: August 2021

In the article the author explores the features of the world's existing triage models. The principles and criteria that can be used as a basis for the development of such recommendations in Ukraine are ana-lyzed. It is concluded that the criteria of triage in its primary sense, which ensure the provision of effective medical care to the largest number of people in a situation of limited resources, do not include social criteria. The ethical problem of redistribution of limited human resources and equipment, reduction of volume of medical care and termination of specialized assistance is analyzed. Conclusions are made on the principles of legal protection of medical staff in the case of a decision on triage. Author substantiates, that a mandatory component of the psychological well-being of medical staff and patients is the division of responsibilities for patient triage and treatment, as well as the provision of psychological, counseling, palliative care to patients.

This study aims to determine the relationship between local wisdom and indigenous peoples and the dependence of local wisdom on its creators at the level of application. It was found that local wisdom is partly produced by indigenous peoples and partly produced by non-indigenous people. Local wisdom is also not carried out in its application with its creator, because local wisdom and universal values ​​can be transformed or inherited or learned by anyone, so that it can be applied by anyone.

As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, it has greatly impacted the world, especially in the field of education, therefore, with increasingly developing technological capabilities, the teaching and learning process in schools is also carried out online. This study aims to analyze the character values ​​of students, as well as describe the design of student character learning in accordance with Pancasila as the basis of the State, and students are able to instill character values ​​in everyday life. This research was conducted at MI TerpaduTahfidz Al Mubarak Langsa in grades 3 and 4 with 20 students per class, and 4th grade teachers. The data analysis method used is a qualitative method by applying field research, namely by field observations, by observing each object which is done online through a video call application. From the results of the analysis, it was known that the character of students in grades III and IV of Integrated MI Tahfidz Al Mubarak 80% is very in accordance with the values ​​of Pancasila because the learning system is carried out always under the supervision of parents and teachers with a maximum number of ten students in one online class. In one class there are two teachers who teach in each class, every day parents must send reports on student progress to their respective class teachers. This is also inseparable from the role of parents in educating their children at home even though the state of the teaching and learning process is carried out online.
Confusing “digital footprints”
Authors: Khusyainov Timur
Published: August 2021

This paper considers digital footprints not through the prism of their impact on the user, but rather focuses on how users themselves prefer not to leave them, or deliberately leave false ones. Users can do this both for the purpose of fraud and in order to hide their actions from the state and business, considering it unacceptable to have their digital footprints collected and analyzed. Along with it, the author points out that a whole category of users emerges who deliberately reduce the number of their digital traces, turning it into a special lifestyle.
Alexander von Humboldt’s Cosmos: Image? Concept? Conception!
Authors: Koshlakov Dmitry
Published: August 2021

The key term for the scientific discourse of Alexander von Humboldt is “Kosmos”. The paper interprets the term in connection with an idea, which is widespread in modern Russian philosophy, that conception as a special epistemic object is an alternative to the logical concept. This study substantiates the statement according to which Alexander von Humboldt in his widely known work Cosmos: A Sketch of a Physical Description of the Universe combines scientific and aesthetic perception of reality. The author makes an assumption that the term “Kosmos” encodes an epistemic object that combines the properties of concept and image and is a conception. For its investigation, the author discusses a few interpretations of the conception as a phenomenon: 1) the equivocalist interpretation, which sees conception as an ambiguous semantic formation, combining transcendent and immanent meanings; 2) the imaginistic interpretation, which considers conception as a semantic entity that has not evolved to an abstract concept; 3) the emotive interpretation, which interprets conception as an emotional semantic entity; this entity is object of thinking and object of emotional experience; 4) the linguo-philosophical interpretation, which considers conception as an element of the conceptual framework of language and thinking. The paper demonstrates that each of indicated interpretations of the conception corresponds to the sense of Humboldt’s term “Kosmos”.
Methyl-Beta-Cyclodextrin Restores KIR Channel Function in Brain Endothelium of Female Alzheimer’s Disease Mice
Authors: Hakim Md A. , Behringer Erik J.
Published: August 2021

Background:

As the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States, Alzheimer’s disease (AD) entails deteriorating endothelial control of blood flow throughout the brain. In particular, reduced inward-rectifying K+ (KIR) channel function in animal models of aging and AD compromises endothelial function and optimal perfusion of brain parenchyma. Deficient endothelial KIR channels may result from aberrant interaction with plasma membrane cholesterol as a primary regulator of membrane fluidity and ion channels.

Objective:

We tested the hypothesis that mild methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MβCD) treatment to reduce membrane cholesterol may restore endothelial KIR channel function in brain endothelium of old AD mice.

Methods:

Membrane potential was continuously measured in isolated endothelial tubes from posterior cerebral arteries of young (1 to 3 months) and old (16 to 19 months) female 3xTg-AD mice before and after mild treatment with the cholesterol-removing agent MβCD (1 mmol/L). Elevated extracellular potassium ([K+]E; 15 mmol/L) and NS309 (1μmol/L) activated KIR and Ca2+-activated K+ (SKCa/IKCa) channels respectively before and after MβCD treatment.

Results:

SKCa/IKCa channel function for producing hyperpolarization remained stable regardless of age group and MβCD treatment ( ΔVm: ∼–33 mV). However, as deficient during AD, KIR channel function was restored ( ΔVm: –9±1 mV) versus pre-MβCD conditions (–5±1 mV); a progressive effect that reached –14±1 mV hyperpolarization at 60 min following MβCD washout.

Conclusion:

In female animals, MβCD treatment of brain endothelium selectively restores KIR versus SKCa/IKCa channel function during AD. Thus, the endothelial cholesterol-KIR channel interface is a novel target for ameliorating perfusion of the AD brain.
