Construir ante la adversidad
Authors: Ramírez-Maestre Carmen
Published: September 2021

Numerosas investigaciones empíricas y teóricas, se han centrado en el estudio del bienestar en un intento por comprender los factores implicados en la felicidad humana. Generalmente, el bienestar se ha entendido como la evaluación positiva y subjetiva del individuo sobre su vida (Ryff & Singer, 2000). La evidencia empírica muestra los múltiples beneficios que supone para la población presentar niveles altos de bienestar (Diener, 2010; Hone, Jarden, Schofield, & Duncan, 2014), así como los riesgos asociados a bajos niveles de satisfacción (Keyes, 2005, 2010). Es por ello importante trabajar desde la Psicología en el estudio de las variables que facilitan la consecución de satisfacción vital, afecto positivo y, en definitiva, una evaluación subjetiva de bienestar individual y colectivo.
Pain Resilience: Issues of Modeling Dynamic Adaptation in Chronic Pain
Authors: Sturgeon John A. , Taub Chloe J.
Published: September 2021

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in processes and characteristics that may underlie resilient adaptation to chronic pain. With this recent increase in empirical inquiry, there has emerged a degree of ambiguity in terms between pain resilience and other constructs previously connected to effective pain adaptation, such as pain acceptance, psychological flexibility, and pain self-efficacy. Objectives of the current paper included reviewing recent clinical and empirical evidence in the area of chronic pain resilience and offering a synthesis of these findings, with a specific focus on issues of defining and operationalizing this construct, compared to other constructs relevant to pain adaptation. We conclude that resilience is best defined as a dynamic process related to both stable individual characteristics and contextual and state factors, such as goal contexts and affective states. Finally, the implications of this model are discussed in the context of the extant literature on psychological interventions for chronic pain.

Authors: Rotar Laura Južnik , Trček Stanko
Published: September 2021

In the 2014–2020 programming period, the cohesion policy focuses more on results and evaluation of programs based on facts. Due to the Commission policies, an expansion of cohesion policy counterfactual impact evaluation of programmes with new approaches can be expected in the future. In this paper, the focus is on the calculation of the impact of received European cohesion funds on the revenue of companies in Slovenian municipalities one/two years after the receipt of cohesion funds for the 2007–2013 period. Two development priorities that affect company revenue – Enterprise competitiveness and research excellence and Promoting entrepreneurship and adaptability are considered. The effect of the use of the European cohesion funds on company revenue in Slovenian municipalities is positive for 2009 and 2010 and negative for all other years examined. The results of the research can serve to policy-makers to reduce the economic, social and territorial disparities in less developed European countries and regions therefore reaching balanced regional development.

EMPTY BENCH IN INDONESIAN PERFORMING ARTS STUDIES: AUDIENCE
Authors: Dhani Kurnia Rahmad
Published: September 2021

Many Indonesian performing art experts have stated that audience studies were conducted in minimal numbers. However, the exact number of research on performing art audiences in Indonesia remains unclear. The factors that influence it are still not known in detail. This paper used a literature review on seven nationally accredited performing arts journals from art institutes in Indonesia over the past ten years. The results showed that only 3 out of 1034 journal titles focusing on performing art audiences in the last ten years. From these findings, we can conclude that the study on the audiences is so scarce. This research theme is not interesting for performing art experts in Indonesia. Indonesian performing art experts and academicians have left the importance of audience studies. This paper also discusses the factors that influence the negligible of performing arts audience studies in Indonesia.

Anti-helminthic Activity of Consolida orientalis (Gay) Schröd. on Caenorhabditis elegans Nematodes and Determination of Possible Active Ingredients
Authors: Ozpinar Hulya
Published: September 2021

Helminthiasis is an important parasitic disease, many of which are zoonotic, particularly common in developing countries and, in countries with hot and humid climates. Intestinal parasites can cause significant manifestations at all levels of the gastrointestinal tract, as well as anemia and growth retardation. This study aims to demonstrate the anti-helminthic effect of Consolida orientalis on Caenorhabditis elegans, which is a helminth model, and introduce new chemotherapeutic candidate substances with anti-helminthic effect to the literature by identifying possible active ingredients with GC-MS analysis. In our study, flower, leaf, stem and aerial part plant extracts of Consolida orientalis were used at 40 mg/mL, 20 mg/mL, 10 mg/mL, 5 mg/mL, 2.5 mg/mL, 1.25 mg/mL concentrations. In addition, possible active ingredients found in plant extracts were determined by GC-MS analysis. As a result of the study, it was determined that the aerial part, leaf and stem extract of the first four concentrates (40 mg/mL, 20 mg/mL, 10 mg/mL, 5 mg/mL) of Consolida orientalis were more effective than pyrantel pamoate at a concentration of 5 mg/mL. According to our study findings, chemotherapeutics such as Dihidrocarvone and 2(3H)-Benzoxazolone with new antihelmintic-antiparasitic activity are thought to contribute to further research.

Nowadays, а lot of people require the reconstruction of teeth due to their loss. Before prosthetics or any other manipulations, the person wants to see the aesthetic appearance of his future teeth as soon as possible. So far, many dentists use the verbal explanation to the patient, how a smile will look like or after the treatment the frontal row of teeth, but the visual representation of the person stays away. But now this can be achieved with the help of «Digital smile design», which shows the person the final result of the dental row. This technology has a number of advantages. Some of them are the quick creation of a prototype model and high accuracy in making the work. Due to these, technologies have facilitated communication between a specialist and a patient. Digital smile design has simplified the doctor’s work process and reduced the patient’s data processing time. From now on, achieving aesthetic results in the reconstruction of teeth for the dentist is not a problem.
Shape Analysis of Flight Trajectories Using Neural Networks
Authors: Gingrass Colton , Singham Dashi I. , Atkinson Michael P.
Published: September 2021

The recent widespread implementation of Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcasting (ADS-B) systems on aircraft allows for improved monitoring and air traffic control management. As part of this monitoring, it is important to be able to detect unusual flight trajectories due to weather events, detection avoidance, aircraft malfunction, or other activities that may signal anomalous behavior. Given the large volume of ADS-B data available from aircraft around the world, the ability to automatically determine the shape of the trajectory and identify anomalous behavior is important to reduce the need for human identification and labeling. A neural network model is developed for multicategory classification of the shape of the trajectory using features derived from a large ADS-B data set such as bearing and curvature. The results suggest promise in differentiating common trajectory shapes using key factors, with the accuracy of the classifier being comparable to human accuracy.

Síndrome del lacertus fibrosus
Authors: Meléndez Roberto , Martínez Gonzalo , Salamanca Natalia
Published: September 2021

El lacertus fibrosus del bíceps o expansión aponeurótica del bíceps es una estructura a la que suele prestársele poca atención frente a otras unidades miotendinosas de destacada importancia como el bíceps brachii o el tríceps. Por esta razón, en general es escaso el conocimiento que se tiene de ella respecto a su anatomía, biomecánica, fisiología y, sobre todo, patología; en las descripciones del síndrome del pronador redondo se le menciona de manera incidental. El presente es un estudio descriptivo observacional de tipo retrospectivo hecho con el propósito de revisar la anatomía del lacertus fibrosus, plantear aspectos de su biomecánica y presentar la revisión de una serie de 29 casos identificados a partir de 4 100 historias clínicas realizadas entre el 13 de enero de 2015 y el 12 de febrero de 2020. En la revisión de la literatura hecha para la presente investigación se encontró que dicha patología predominó en las mujeres y en los mayores de 56 años, siendo el principal motivo de consulta el dolor en la cara antero-medial del brazo distal y del codo. Además, se halló que su presentación clínica con frecuencia se acompañaba de los síndromes del pronador redondo y del interóseo posterior.
Oscillopsia following orbitotomy for intracranial tumor resection
Authors: Goethe Eric A. , Hartford Juliet , Foroozan Rod , Patel Akash J.
Published: September 2021

Background:

Oscillopsia is a visual phenomenon in which an individual perceives that their environment is moving when it is in fact stationary. In this report, we describe two patients with pulsatile oscillopsia following orbitocranial approaches for skull base meningioma resection.

Case Description:

Two patients, both 42-year-old women, underwent orbitocranial approaches for resection of a right sphenoid wing (Patient 1) and left cavernous sinus (Patient 2) meningioma. Patient 1 underwent uncomplicated resection and was discharged home without neurologic or visual complaints; she presented 8 days later with pulsatile oscillopsia. This was managed expectantly, and MRA revealed no evidence of vascular pathology. She has not required intervention as of most recent follow-up. Patient 2 developed trochlear and trigeminal nerve palsies following resection and developed pulsatile oscillopsia 4 months postoperatively. After patching and corrective lens application, the patient’s symptoms had improved by 26 months postoperatively.

Conclusion:

Oscillopsia is a potential complication following skull base tumor resection about which patients should be aware. Patients may improve with conservative management alone, although the literature describes repair of orbital defects for ocular pulsations in traumatic and with some developmental conditions.
Role of magnetic resonance vessel wall imaging in detecting and managing ruptured aneurysms among multiple intracranial aneurysms
Authors: Yoshikawa Kohei , Moroi Junta , Kokubun Kohei , Furuya Nobuharu , Yoshida Yasuyuki , Kinoshita Toshibumi , Shinohara Yuki , Ishikawa Tatsuya
Published: September 2021

Background:

Wall enhancement of intracranial saccular aneurysms in high-resolution magnetic resonance vessel wall imaging (MR-VWI) might indicate a ruptured aneurysm. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the diagnostic ability of wall enhancement to detect the ruptured aneurysms among multiple aneurysms.

Methods:

Patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and multiple intracranial aneurysms who underwent MR-VWI before craniotomy and clipping were included in the study. Three-dimensional T1-weighted fast spin-echo sequences were obtained before and after gadolinium injection. Aneurysm rupture was estimated based on the subarachnoid clot distribution, aneurysmal contours, and MR-VWI findings. We selectively performed surgical clipping and confirmed the rupture site intraoperatively.

Results:

Thirteen patients with SAH with 13 ruptured and 17 unruptured aneurysms were treated at out facility. The accuracy rate of rupture site diagnosis using MR-VWI was 69.2% (9/13 cases). Each unruptured aneurysm was equally or more strongly enhanced in the other four cases than the ruptured aneurysms. In three of the four unruptured aneurysms with positive MR-VWI findings, atherosclerosis of the aneurysmal wall was observed during simultaneous or elective clipping surgery. Further, clipping surgery was performed without intraoperative rupture in two cases with the help of MR-VWI findings.

Conclusion:

Correct diagnosis of the rupture site using MR-VWI alone was unreliable due to false positives caused by the wall enhancement of unruptured aneurysms with atherosclerosis. Therefore, ruptured aneurysms should be detected using more information in addition to MR-VWI images. MR-VWI may be advantageous to determine surgical strategies when managing patients with SAH and multiple aneurysms.

Published: September 2021

Background:

A patient presented with a spinal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and subdural hematoma (SDH) attributed to a spinal schwannoma at the T12-L1 level.

Case Description:

A 67-year-old male acutely presented with severe back pain and L1 paraparesis/sensory loss, with urinary incontinence. CT/MR studies showed a spinal SAH and SDH within a likely T12-L1 schwannoma. At surgery, the hemorrhage within the tumor was continuous through the lower pole of the tumor into the subarachnoid and subdural spaces; tumor was dissected away from the surrounding tissues and totally removed. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the preoperative neurological deficits gradually resolved. Histopathologically, the lesion was a schwannoma with intratumoral hemorrhage.

Conclusion:

This case demonstrates the rare acute presentation of a T12-L1 schwannoma with an accompanying intratumoral hemorrhage resulting in both a SDH/SAH.

COVID-19 has emerged in a world tightly related to local and international population movements. International migrants are a group of very vulnerable people who are directly and indirectly affected by Covid-19. They face additional barriers rather than the locals, such as language barrier, border closure, visa barrier, etc. The aim of this article is to discuss impacts of Coronavirus COVID-19 on Iranian immigrants’ lives in Russia and Turkey. The 1979 Islamic Revolution led to unprecedented numbers of Iranians leaving their home country. Although many Iranian have immigrated to both countries in the last decades, the forms and patterns of migration of Iranians to these two countries are different. And Turkey has been one of the main countries of destination for Iranian immigrants and it also acted as a transit country for Iranian refugees that left Turkey to Europe. And Russia on the other hand, in the last years, hosts Iranian students who form the most number of immigrants in this country. The qualitative approach, grounded theory is used in this research. We interviewed four Iranian immigrants in Russia and three Iranian immigrants in Turkey online in platform zoom in the Persian language, the age range of our interviewees was from 18-35 years old, two of the interviewees were women and five men. Findings in this study show that language barrier, financial instability, access to information, and in some cases discriminations have been the most important problems that Iranians faced during the pandemic in these two countries. However, they believe that the two countries were quite successful in adapting themselves to the new pattern of life.

Authors:   Institute for Demographic Research FCTAS RAS, Rostovskaya Tamara K. , Bezverbnaya Natal’ya A. ,   Institute for Demographic Research FCTAS RAS
Published: September 2021

Research on gender-based violence focuses on levels of physical, sexualized, and psychological impact. This article is devoted to one of the most latent forms of violence — economic, faced by members of a multi-generational family: spouses, children, parents, grandparents. Attention is drawn to the fact that it is women who are more susceptible to various forms of economic deprivation. The authors noted that economic violence is: a restriction in access to financial resources; control over access to health care, employment, education; exclusion or complete exclusion from the financial decision-making process; discrimination in the procedure of inheritance, obtaining property rights, restriction or prohibition of the use of movable and immovable property. Special attention is paid to the analysis of the consequences of economic violence for different sectors of the economy. It is revealed that the consequence of economic violence and economic deprivation can be: the aggravation of poverty, the inability to obtain education, difficulties in socialization and realization of the individual in the professional sphere. The article also suggests indicators of economic violence. Economic violence creates a risk of physical violence, promotes sexual exploitation, and trafficking.

Published: September 2021

This prospective study represents our experiences in using fibreoptic bronchoscopy [FOB]in the evaluation of different thoracic lesions. Over a 20-month period, 203 patients [151 males and 52 females][age range: 15-100 years]underwent bronchoscopies. The patients had a wide range of symptoms and/or radiographic abnormalities. The majority had cough and shortness of breath; haemoptysis was a common symptom. In all, 148 patients had neoplasms and 55 had non-neoplastic lesions. The most common malignancy was bronchogenic carcinoma [91 confirmed, 33 suspected]. Other neoplasms included pulmonary metastases and mediastinal tumours. The non-neoplastic chest lesions included pulmonary tuberculosis, pulmonary hydatid cyst, lung abscess and resolving chest infection and chronic bronchitis. FOB was most useful in the diagnosis of bronchogenic carcinoma [positive diagnostic yield of 73%]. It was least useful in diagnosing mediastinal tumours

Published: September 2021

HgCl2, added in vitro to human granulocytes in whole blood, caused a marked inhibitory effect on the luminol-dependent chemiluminescence induced by BaS04 crystals in suspension of these cells. The effect was both dose- and time-dependent when BaS04 was used to stimulate the oxidative burst in granulocytes. Incubation with the highest concentration of HgCl2 used [10 mmol/L], however, did not cause disruption of the membranes of granulocytes. The effect of HgCl2 on the granulocytes was irreversible following washing of the HgCl2-treated cells with phosphate buffered saline. HgCl2 did not affect chemiluminescence produced when luminol was excited by oxidative hydrogen peroxide in a cell-free medium. These results suggest that some of the toxicity of HgCl2 may be greater than mediated by an action on the phagocytic immune system
Risk factors of coronary artery disease in different regions of Saudi Arabia
Authors: Osman A. K. , Al Nozha M. M.
Published: September 2021

A national nutrition survey was carried out in Saudi Arabia between 1989 and 1994. One objective was to investigate the prevalence of well established atherogenic risk factors among adults 18 years and older, namely obesity, hypercholesterolaemia, hypertriglyceridaemia, diabetes mellitus and high systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Obesity prevalence was positively correlated with all five coronary artery disease risk factors investigated. Variation among regions in relation to the prevalence of these risk factors was observed. Saudi Arabia’s ecology has resulted in variation in the lifestyle and food consumption patterns of the people of the different regions, which might be a major underlying cause of the variation and high prevalence of coronary artery disease risk factors
Active case-finding of communicable diseases in the South of the Islamic Republic of Iran
Authors: Karimi A.
Published: September 2021

In the Fars province of the Islamic Republic of Iran, we established the Communicable Diseases Committee which determined 24 priority infectious diseases for active reporting. The Committee chose laboratory criteria for diagnosis of the selected diseases, trained reporters and follow-up staff and invited cooperation from heads of private and government laboratories. Cases were identified by the reporting staff and patients were interviewed by the follow-up staff, who also requested patients to complete an epidemiological questionnaire. Results were returned to the district health care centres and to the Committee for data analysis. Case-findings in 16 out of the 24 selected diseases showed an increase of up to 30 times compared to passive case-finding. This was due more to the greater efficiency of the method than to cohort epidemics

Mental health: the missing link in primary care? Health for All by the Year 2000 revisited
Authors: Saeed K.
Published: September 2021

The effects on the uptake of services offered in primary health care of a demonstration community mental health project in Pakistan were assessed. A subdistrict with the project was compared with a matched area without the project over 7 years. Routinely collected information on service use was used, including the detection and treatment of mental disorders. Compared with the comparison subdistrict, the index subdistrict showed an increase in use of primary care by men, reduction in pregnancy rate, increased use of antenatal care, reduced maternal mortality, increased immunization coverage, and increased detection and treatment of mental disorders.
Effect of trauma on the mental health of Palestinian children and mothers in the Gaza Strip
Authors: Thabet A. A. , Abed Y. , Vostanis P.
Published: September 2021

A cross-sectional study was conducted among 286 Palestinian children 9-18 years of age and their mothers in the Gaza Strip. Traumatic events recollected by children living in areas of conflict, the prevalence of post-traumatic stress reactions and the relationship between children’s and mothers’ mental health were investigated. The Gaza Traumatic Events Checklist, Impact of Event Scale [IES] and General Health Questionnaire [GHQ] were used to measure outcome. Children experienced on average four traumatic events; one-third reported significant post-traumatic stress reactions. IES scores were higher among girls and mothers’ GHQ scores significantly predicted children’s IES scores.
Major birth defects among infants with Down syndrome in Alexandria, Egypt [1995-2000]: trends and risk factors
Authors: Mokhtar M. M. , Abdel Fattah M.
Published: September 2021

We evaluated the hypothesis that the trisomy 21 genome interacts with environmental factors during early pregnancy to increase the risk for birth anomalies in Down syndrome infants in Alexandria, Egypt. A case-control study on 514 infants with confirmed Down syndrome was carried out from 1 July 1995 to 30 June 2000. Genetic, biological, environmental and reproductive factors were analysed. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed the following factors to be independently associated with increased risk of congenital heart diseases among Down syndrome patients: parental consanguinity, maternal parents’ consanguinity, mother’s antibiotics use in pregnancy, oral contraceptive use and diabetes in the mother. Fever in the mother during pregnancy was associated with increased risk of gastrointestinal anomalies.

Traditional healers in the Qazvin region of the Islamic Republic of Iran: a qualitative study
Authors: Asefzadeh S. , Sameefar F.
Published: September 2021

We identified and categorized by method of therapy 15 traditional healers in the recorded by actual patients or by observers simulating a medical condition. The treatment practices of the 15 healers [8 men and 7 women] included herbal remedies [four], bone-setting [five], traditional methods for the treatment of sore throat [two], massage therapy using plant oils [one], cupping [two], and leech therapy [one]. Despite an adequate number of physicians practising in the region, traditional healers continue to be consulted. We recommend that the efficacy of their treatments be further studied and that they be encouraged to contribute positively to the broader health objectives of Iranian society.

Published: September 2021

An anonymous questionnaire was used to survey the attitudes of 382 doctors towards euthanasia and assisted suicide at Khartoum’s two main hospitals. Of the 382, 248 responded [65% response rate]. The mean age was 38 +/- 13.5 years; male: female ratio was 130: 118; 66% were house staff, 34% specialists; 92% Muslim, 8% Christian. The vast majority [85%] strongly opposed the practices, while 15% thought they should be performed only in certain situations, subject to strict safeguards. Reasons given for opposition included religious beliefs, inconsistency with the doctor’s role, presence of subtle pressures on patients, and potential for misuse among the physically and intellectually handicapped.
Determinants of malaria mortality among displaced people in Khartoum state, Sudan
Authors: Saeed I. E. , Ahmed E. S.
Published: September 2021

To find the determinants of malaria mortality among displaced people, across-sectional descriptive study using verbal autopsy was carried out in 2 camps in Khartoum state, Sudan. The heads of 856 households were interviewed about household characteristics, and malaria knowledge, attitudes and behaviour. They reported 81 malaria deaths during the previous year, 3.5% of all household members; 70 [86.4%] were children. Fever, diarrhoea, vomiting and headache were the most prevalent symptoms before death. Having a malaria death in the household was significantly associated with poor knowledge about malaria and, surprisingly, with better education. Poor treatment-seeking behaviour and poor attitudes towards malaria were not associated with higher mortality. However, mortality was significantly higher among households obtaining water by cart than from a well

Resumen: Los Baldíos, creados por la imaginación de Mark Millar y Steve Mcniven, se han convertido en uno de los más interesantes enclaves de los cómics Marvel. El duro escenario de este mundo apocalíptico ha penetrado en la conciencia lectora desde su primera aparición en El Viejo Logan (2008). De cualquier modo, no ha sido hasta El Viejo Ojo de Halcón (2018) que público y crítica han apreciado el amplio abanico de posibilidades que este desesperanzador futuro alternativo ofrece. Ethan Sacks y Marco Checchetto han brindado una narración más orientada al público adulto, integrando los elementos superheroicos con el spaghetti western y el neo-noir. En este artículo, buscamos explorar las influencias de esta precuela distópica, prestando especial atención al cómic del Oeste europeo y la inspiración dinámica de las tiras norteamericanas.

Abstract: The Wastelands, created by the imagination of Mark Millar and Steve Mcniven, have become one of the most interesting places in Marvel Comics. The hard-boiled scenarios of this apocalyptic world had penetrated the reader´s cosciousness since their first appearance in Old Man Logan (2008). However, it was not until Old Man Hawkeye (2018) that public and critics realized the wide range of possibilities that this desperate alternative future offers. Ethan Sacks and Marco Checchetto have given a more adult-oriented narration, integrating superheroic elements with spaghetti western and neo-noir. In this article, we want to explore the influences of this dystopian prequel, focusing on the mixture of the Western in European comic strips, with punchier American inspired dynamism.
