Authors: Bikbaeva G. R. , Kovalskaya A. N. , Kuznetsova K. V. , Pavlova T. V. , Duplyakov D. V.
Published: October 2024

The aim was to evaluate the potential of various imaging methods in the diagnosis of vulnerable coronary plaques and their stabilization using various lipid-lowering therapy regimens.

The sources were searched in the PubMed database using the following keywords: "vulnerable (unstable) plaque" AND "PCSK9 inhibitors" AND "intravascular ultrasound" OR "optical coherence tomography" OR "computed tomography angiography". As a result, 8 original clinical trials were selected that corresponded to the review purpose. We assessed the results of following studies on plaque imaging and their regression with various lipid-lowering therapy regimens: GLAGVO, ODYSSEY J, PACMAN-AMI, HUYGENS, ALTAIR, ARCHITECT, etc. The results of most studies have established the advantages of a combined regimen of lipid-lowering therapy (statin+PCSK9 inhibitor) in reducing the rate of cardiovascular events in com­parison with statin monotherapy. The reduction in plaque volume ranged from 0,95% to 2,13% in patients receiving a combination of lipid-lowering drugs, while in monotherapy, it increased from 0,05% to 0,92% (GLAGOV, PACMAN-AMI). The changes of minimum fibrous cap thickness varied from 18,0-62,67 µm with combined therapy and 13,2-33,19 µm with monotherapy (PACMAN-AMI, Gao F). Lipid arc regression was 57,5о in combination therapy (statin+PCSK9 inhibitor) and 31,4о in statin monotherapy (HUYGENS). Imaging diagnostic methods makes it possible to identify vulnerable plaques, which helps in consideration of combination lipid-lowering therapy. In addition, plaque visualization makes it possible to evaluate the treatment effectiveness.
Is it possible to regress atherosclerotic lesions with long-term treatment with lipoprotein apheresis?
Authors: Julius Ulrich , Tselmin Sergey , Korneva V. A.
Published: October 2024

The article presents the up-to-date information on the effect of lipoprotein apheresis (LA) on atherosclerotic lesions. Some studies using modern diagnostic imaging techniques (such as intravascular ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging) have clearly demonstrated plaque regression. Coronary angiography has also seen reversal or at least slow plaque progression. Plaque regression likely leads to a decrease in the incidence of atherosclerotic cardiovascular events (CVEs). However, this has not yet been fully proven. Recent data indicate that reduction in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and lipoprotein(a) levels is not a major factor in reducing the incidence of atherosclerotic CVEs in patients undergoing extracorporeal treatment. The most significant risk factors in this case are older age and a greater CVE rate observed before the start of LA, as well as smoking. New studies using modern diagnostic imaging methods in patients receiving LA are necessary.

El poder de la espontaneidad en Tik Tok: tres casos de adprosumers peruanos
Authors:   Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas, HIDALGO GONZALES Giuliana Elizabeth , CABEL GARCIA Andrea ,   Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas, AGUERO Marisol Lis ,   UNIVERSIDAD CESUMA
Published: October 2024

El presente artículo analiza tres videos espontáneos de tres adprosumers de la marca Takis en TikTok como posibles agentes de influencia en el panorama actual peruano. La marca Takis, originalmente mexicana, tuvo un gran impacto en sus consumidores peruanos, ya que estos se convirtieron en adprosumers de la marca generando una gran cantidad de publicidad gratuita y espontánea a lo largo de los años 2020-2021. Así, este estudio enmarcado en el paradigma fenomenológico y en el enfoque cualitativo, analiza y contrasta las opiniones y percepciones de consumidores que fueron testigos del fenómeno Takis gracias a Tik Tok. Para la investigación, se contó con diecisiete usuarios activos de TikTok, que, a su vez, son consumidores de Takis. Uno de los hallazgos relevantes es que el modo de actuar de estos videos sucita la auto-proyección del consumidor en el adprosumer, lo que posteriormente puede despertar la curiosidad por la marca. Finalmente, el estudio concluye que la espontaneidad, en los videos de los adprosumers, es un elemento que aporta emociones y percepciones positivas hacia la marca. Así las cosas, la espontaneidad de usuarios que no cuentan con auspicios ni con publicidad pagada genera más empatía con los potenciales consumidores.

Published: October 2024

Tomando como esenciales tres cuestiones, la interculturalidad, la globalización del malestar y la ampliación de la percepción que producen los medios, este artículo pretende observar cómo el uso de los medios digitales ha producido un efecto de malestar en los seres humanos hipermodernos, tal como parecen. globalizar, en lugar de riquezas, sólo otros males. Además, reflexionar sobre cómo el desarrollo de las relaciones interculturales puede emerger como acciones que, si no resuelven estos problemas, al menos señalen caminos a seguir. Esta investigación será exploratoria y, metodológicamente, utilizará los conceptos de la teoría de los medios para comprender el uso de los medios. También relacionará estos conceptos con las ideas de los estudios culturales sobre la interculturalidad.
Entre lo masivo y lo oral: recontextualizaciones a partir de un género de tradición oral
Authors:   Universidad Austral de Chile, YAÑEZ AGUILAR Cristian Andrés
Published: October 2024

Constelaciones de sentido diversas en torno a lo cultural han construido ámbitos de conocimiento que muchas veces no dialogan pese a que comparten interés por fenomenologías similares. Es lo que al autor de este artículo le parece que ocurre con su objeto de estudio, la recontextualización genérica de la seguidilla en campos fenomenológicos que cruzan desde la cultura popular oral a lo popular masivo. Teóricamente, el siguiente artículo se circunscribe al ámbito de la comunicación y la cultura, poniéndose en diálogo el enfoque proveniente de la obra de Jesús Martín Barbero con una de las perspectivas de los estudios performativos. Por otra parte, metodológicamente se trabaja con estudio de casos y técnicas documentales de recolección de información.

Dize-me com quem andas e te darei visibilidade: a estratégia de collabs entre influenciadores virtuais
Authors:   Universidade de São Paulo, TERRA Carolina Frazon , LEME Alvaro ,   Universidade de São Paulo
Published: October 2024

O artigo discute a crescente popularidade das colaborações entre influenciadores virtuais como estratégia de visibilidade, exposição e engajamento para as organizações. Com a vantagem de um certo controle da narrativa sobre aquilo que “dizem e fazem”, os influenciadores virtuais têm sido escolhidos como maneira de transmitir valores e mensagens-chave de suas marcas. No entanto, vale sempre o olhar ético, crítico e reflexivo em torno da transparência de quem são tais figuras. A metodologia de base do texto é a pesquisa bibliográfica, mas também exploratória e ensaística. O exercício de exploração aqui proposto permitiu construir hipóteses para que fossem tecidas considerações sobre as relações entre transformações digitais e consumo, vantagens e pontos de atenção das colaborações entre influenciadores virtuais e reais.

Clases espejo – Rizoma: una estrategia para la internacionalización del currículo
Authors: Espinal Correa Claudia Elena
Published: October 2024

Virtual learning and practice communities are not new. Decades of implementation and development demonstrate their ability to foster collaborative work and knowledge generation through collective contribution. In other words, distributed cognition is established among the participants, resulting from embodied knowledge or systematic practice, or both. In higher education, these communities enhance classroom work by allowing prior interaction on specific aspects among instructors, sharing didactic resources and evaluation strategies, and posing questions that reaffirm or challenge new horizons in the teaching process. The Cooperative University of Colombia has been hosting virtual learning and practice communities among teachers for the past six years—designed and monitored on the Yammer platform of Office 365—under the framework of the Superior Agreement 323 of 2017. In these communities, professors discuss and adopt the critical educational model with a competencybased approach while sharing resources and strategies. As an expression of the project’s maturity (beyond its initial scope), its framework of action has been expanded, extending its Rhizome communities to international Rhizome academic communities. This supports the development of mirror classes conducted by teachers within the framework of agreements with national or international universities. These communities also introduce the participation of students from our institution and international students. However, what is the importance of this experience and its dissemination to the academic community? On one hand, the internationalization of the curriculum is manifested as these mirror classes and their virtual learning communities establish topics aligned with a class program— in our case, competency-based—and link them with another, reaching agreements that allow discussion and appropriation of disciplinary knowledge. On the other hand, it contributes to interculturality, as the community fosters open, reciprocal, critical, and self-critical dialogue among various cultures. This is possible because, in their conception, these communities revolve around a problem question agreed upon by the organizers for a predetermined time. With this said, we aim to communicate to the academic community the richness of this strategy from its conception, methodology, interaction data, and the quality of interaction that we have developed so far.
Abuso sexual infantil: conceptos fundamentales y aproximaciones prácticas
Authors: Benavides Delgado Jacqueline
Published: October 2024

The objective of this book is to clarify, in a friendly way, many concepts that are related to child sexual abuse and that allow us to better understand this problem. On the other hand, there is a practical approach, which was carried out in two schools in the Municipality of Soacha, (Cundinamarca, Colombia), in which some modules of the Protective School Contexts program were applied: A new alternative against child sexual abuse. Although the program was designed as a strategy applicable in person in schools, in this study it was not possible to cover all members of the educational community, since the program was developed during the pandemic. Therefore, the application of the sessions was virtual and only for adults (parents, directives, and teachers). The exclusion of the children from this virtual program was mainly due to the connectivity problems they had and the difficulty of carrying out the group activities that the program suggests. This child sexual abuse prevention program, modified, as already explained, was applied in two private educational institutions in the municipality of Soacha, Cundinamarca. The results showed that the population of parents and teachers responded 90% adequately to the pre survey of false beliefs and 100% in the post application. These results show how the subject is not unknown to these populations and its dissemination in written or virtual media has allowed people to have knowledge about child sexual abuse. However, the most interesting data is focused on the qualitative information that allowed both teachers and parents to learn many strategies for their own lives and the protection of their loved ones. In conclusion, it can be highlighted that the application of the program opened discussion scenarios and generated a propitious space for the issue to be aired and began to filter into the daily lives of families.
‘If parody does not prickle it does not work’: Reflections on the Interpretive Challenges of Dark Parody in the Dutch and South African Courts
Authors: Luypaers Melissa
Published: October 2024

Focusing on the nexus of humour and the right to free speech, this article introduces the concept of ‘dark parody’ to address parodies that reuse existing material with a dark, humorous twist and explores how courts deal with two of the main interpretive challenges presented by a ‘dark parody’: (1) interpreting the distance between the parody and the copyright/trademark protected work it parodies, and (2) its use of dark humour. Using a metahermeneutic approach, the article analyses how the main features of parody, the legal criteria applied to parody in courts of law, and the role of dark humour influence the judicial interpretation process regarding (dark) parody in the context of copyright and trademark law. Based on this analysis, the article proposes the theoretical framework of ‘parodic distance’ to address the interpretive challenges systematically presented by dark parody via  six  main  categories—content,  style,  context,  message,  function  and  affect—from  which  the distance between a parody and the original can be interpreted. Applying this framework to two case studies [Mercis c.s. v. Punt.nl, Court of Appeal of Amsterdam; Laugh It Off Promotions v. South African Breweries, Constitutional Court of South Africa], the article provides a comparative analysis of how these courts currently deal with interpretive issues surrounding dark humour in copyright and trademark law and shows how the framework of parodic distance can be a potentially useful conceptual tool that provides a shared vocabulary to complement judicial interpretation and legal discourse at the nexus of dark parody and the law.
Household Excess Savings and the Transmission of Monetary Policy
Authors: Ferreira Thiago R.T. , Gornemann Nils , Ortiz Julio L.
Published: October 2024

Household savings rose above trend in many developed countries after the onset of COVID-19. Given its link to aggregate consumption, the presence of these "excess savings" has raised questions about their implications for the transmission of monetary policy. Using a panel of euro-area economies and high-frequency monetary policy shocks, we document that household excess savings dampen the effects of monetary policy on economic activity and inflation, especially during the pandemic period. To rationalize our empirical findings, we build a New Keynesian model in which households use savings to self-insure against counter-cyclical unemployment and consumption risk.

Digital Legal Control as a New Civil Category
Authors:   Bar Association of the Moscow region ‘Linnikov and Partners’, Linnikov A. S. ,   Board of the Association of the Payment Services Market Participants Non‐Commercial Partnership ‘National Payment Council’
Published: October 2024

Introduction: the article looks at digitalization of economy through the prism of the ‘new technological path’, Digital Earth concept, digital innovation in the framework of Industry 4.0. The focus is on the advantages and disadvantages of such digitalization from the perspective of digital legal control. In the light of the formulated thesis about the absence of a unified scientific idea of the place of digital legal control in the system of relations under private or public law, the author attempts to develop the fundamentals of the digital legal control concept, which is presented in the article as a new civil category. Purpose: to form a general idea of digital civil‐law control, its place in the system of types of digital legal control, and the areas of its practical implementation. Methods: general scientific methods used in the study include analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, abstraction, interpretation, comparison, etc.; special scientific methods comprise legal‐dogmatic, historical‐legal, comparative‐legal methods, interpretation of legal norms, and legal modeling. Results: digital legal control is a characteristic of both public‐ and private‐law relations. The article develops doctrinal definitions of ‘digital public‐law control’ and ‘digital private‐law control’. Conclusions: in the field of public law, digital legal control is most often associated with public digital financial control. Digital legal control inherent in a civil agreement executed via a smart contract is implemented with the use of mathematical algorithms, therefore such control can be carried out both by a person and without his direct participation; however, in both cases such control is predetermined by the technical framework of a specific information system. Classical contract law is based on trust of the property turnover participants in the state system of coercion, while digital contract law is characterized by trust of the parties to an agreement in the computer code.

Authors: Ramírez-Morillo Ivón , Carnevali Germán , Romero-Soler Katya J. , Pinzón Juan Pablo , Tamayo-Cen Iván , Raigoza Flores Néstor , Rivera Martínez Ricardo
Published: October 2024

Background: Pitcairnia is the third largest bromeliad genus in Mexico with 57 species and ca. 82.5 % endemism, and is characterized mostly by zygomorphic, ornithophilous flowers of diurnal anthesis in several hues of red, orange, or yellow, whereas white or green flowers are uncommon. Moreover, there are just a few species with nocturnal anthesis in Megamexico. One of them is documented and discussed here.
Questions: Is the Pitcairnia with campanulate, fragrant flowers of nocturnal anthesis from Oaxaca different from other species with similar characters native to Mexico and the Neotropics and what is its conservation status?
Studied species: Pitcairnia abundans, P. lokischmidtiae, P. zapoteca.
Study site and dates: Oaxaca, Mexico, 2016-2024.
Methods: Live plants, herbarium material, protologues, and high-resolution images of herbarium specimens, both of the new taxon and of morphologically similar taxa, were studied and compared against each other. The conservation status of the new species was assessed using the IUCN criteria.
Results: Pitcairnia zapoteca is similar but different at the species level from P. lokischmidtiae from Jalisco; both share campanulate flowers of nocturnal anthesis and a musky or frutal fragances. The conservation status of the new taxon is assessed as DD.
Conclusions: Pitcairnia zapoteca is a new species, only known from the type locality in the state of Oaxaca and only one of three Mexican species with campanulate, white, yellowish or greenish flowers of nocturnal anthesis. The assessment the true conservation status of the new taxon requires detailed exploration of the SE portion of Oaxaca.

Para esta perspectiva teórica, implica ao processo de humanização superar a condição de espécie biológica por meio da apropriação da cultura historicamente produzida, visando o desenvolvimento das funções psicológicas superiores. É apresentada a categoria de atividade principal como força motriz do processo de desenvolvimento humano, estreitamente ligada ao lugar social que cada indivíduo ocupa, bem como às condições objetivas e subjetivas de sua existência material. Reflete-se sobre conceitos que perpassam pela TA, com o intuito de analisar as possibilidades de interpretação desta teoria sobre o desenvolvimento humano associado às atividades de ensino e estudo realizadas com crianças com deficiência. Participaram desta pesquisa, dois professores que atuam na escola básica e três crianças com laudo de deficiência. Os dados foram obtidos por intermédio de entrevistas com professores e observações de aulas, registrados em diário de campo. Resultados indicam que a escola e o professor desempenham papel importante no processo de desenvolvimento humano, uma vez que, por intermédio do ensino e do estudo é possibilitado à criança com deficiência atingir nível de desenvolvimento cognitivo e afetivo o mais elevado possível. O estudo aponta para a necessidade da apropriação, pelo professor e aluno, do significado das atividades de ensino e de estudo, para não limitar as possibilidades de desenvolvimento humano.

Authors: Carvalho Géssika Cecília
Published: October 2024

O presente trabalho analisa como os docentes do Instituto Federal de Alagoas concebem a questão do ensino médio integrado e da constituição do currículo que atenda a essa demanda. Teve como objetivos compreender as percepções docentes sobre o ensino médio integrado e o currículo integrado, identificando as estratégias utilizadas pelos docentes para promover o currículo integrado e analisando suas dificuldades para estabelecê-lo. Foi realizado com 23 docentes do Instituto Federal de Alagoas e utilizou como instrumentos metodológicos a pesquisa bibliográfica e a documental, bem como o questionário. Os resultados apontaram que os docentes compreendem em parte de que se trata o ensino médio integrado e 78,3% utilizam estratégias que julgam promovê-lo, embora 82,6% nunca tenham recebido formação para trabalhar com o currículo integrado. Além disso, a maior parte consegue estabelecer parcerias com outros professores, mesmo que não haja planejamento conjunto entre eles. Isso demonstra a necessidade da utilização de estratégias, como formações e oficinas, para que os docentes tenham maior compreensão do que é o currículo integrado e de maneiras para promovê-lo. Aponta também para a importância da promoção de momentos de integração, parcerias e planejamento entre os docentes.
¿Quiénes Componen el Nivel Intermedio? Un Estudio de Caso sobre Organizaciones de Mejora Escolar en Chile
Authors: Rodriguez Espinoza Simón , Weinstein Cayuela José
Published: October 2024

Cada vez más la literatura especializada comprende que el nivel intermedio (“middle tier”) se compone de diversas organizaciones y actores que operan con roles diferenciales y complementarios. Sin embargo, su conocimiento es aún incipiente. El presente artículo se basa en un estudio cuyo objetivo es describir las organizaciones de mejora escolar que, desde niveles inmediatamente superiores al centro educativo, tienen el rol de apoyo al liderazgo escolar. Se realizó un estudio de caso único de tipo descriptivo cualitativo, empleando una metodología de mapas narrativos, correspondiente a un grupo de asesores técnicos de un nuevo Servicio Local de Educación Pública (SLEP) de Chile. Los resultados muestran una diversidad de representaciones y reconocen seis tipos de funciones realizadas por estas organizaciones desde la perspectiva de asesores técnicos y sus superiores. Se discute la articulación entre las dimensiones estructural, en red y ecológica de la mejora escolar, junto con el papel de conector de políticas y agente de cambio por parte de profesionales líderes del nivel intermedio con las organizaciones de mejora presentes en su entorno.

Los estudios sobre liderazgo e inclusión se han centrado principalmente en los equipos directivos. No obstante, todavía la información es insuficiente en cuanto al potencial de otros líderes escolares, como líderes medios y/o profesionales no docentes, para el desarrollo de procesos inclusivos. Este artículo reporta los resultados de un estudio documental sobre políticas educativas de inclusión e interculturalidad con el fin de conocer las demandas que se le asignan a las y los potenciales lideres medios en Chile. Mediante un enfoque cualitativo se analizaron 28 textos oficiales (leyes, decretos y documentos orientadores) mediante la técnica de análisis de contenido. Los principales resultados destacan un conjunto de profesionales docentes (como profesores/as de educación especial y jefes/as de unidad técnico-pedagógica) y no docentes (como psicólogos/as, fonoaudiólogos/as, psicopedagogos/as y trabajadores/as sociales) que son demandados en las políticas de inclusión en dimensiones como: trabajo colaborativo, atención de la diversidad, autoformación, sensibilización, convivencia escolar y apoyo psicosocial. Se concluye que se debe invertir en el desarrollo, reconocimiento y apoyo de líderes medios como figuras clave en materia de inclusión e interculturalidad.
Augmented Landscapes of Empathy: Community Voices in Augmented Reality Campaigns

In contrast with virtual reality which often aims to isolate a user from their surroundings in order to transport them to a distant place, augmented reality (AR) was uniquely designed to (re)contextualize local landscapes and to provide expanded human experiences in situ. This critical reflection adopts a “research through design” process to examine AR’s technological and affective capabilities in the context of three community co-created AR campaigns. We discuss how AR can become both a conceptual and practical tool for creating conditions of self-identification and, potentially, empathy between audience and content. Further, we explore how people and place become a critical part of AR’s infrastructure through the practice of empathic feedback loops.

Introduction. In glial tumors, lipid metabolism becomes abnormal. Analysis of lipid metabolism components can be an important characteristic of molecular and genetic profile of gliomas.Aim. To determine the correlation between plasma lipidome profile and immunohistochemical characteristics of glial tumors and to evaluate clinical significance of blood lipid spectrum analysis in preoperative assessment of molecular profile of gliomas.Materials and methods. Immunohistochemical measurement of O-6-methylguanine-DNA-methyl transferase (MGMT), Ki-67, p53, IDH1 tumor markers was performed using the corresponding antibody clones. Composition of plasma lipids was assessed using thin layer chromatography.Results. Even at the early stages of gliomagenesis, significant differences in cholesterol ethers, lysophosphatidylcholines, phosphatidylcholine (PC)/ lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) ratio, neutral lipids (NL)/phospholipids (PL) in the blood were observed. Significant correlations between Ki-67, MGMT tumor markers and the above-mentioned lipidome parameters were found. The PC/LPC, NL/PL ratios in the blood of the patients from the groups with higher (above 10 %) and lower (below 10 %) Ki-67 mitotic indexes compared to healthy individuals were significantly lower. Therefore, the values of lipidome parameters allow to indirectly assess proliferative activity of gliomas which can be used for preoperative diagnosis of these tumors. No significant differences in the plasma PC/LPC and NL/PL ratios were found between the groups with MGMT promoter methylation and without it. No indirect predictor criteria for MGMT were found.Conclusion. It is impossible to determine decreased epigenetic activity of corresponding transcripts and preoperative prognosis for alkylating agent therapy based on the parameters of plasma lipid metabolism.

The article presents a review of modern literature data on molecular-genetic and biochemical profiles of malignant tumors of varying locations. It is shown that molecular-genetic and transcription profiles of pregnancy-associated malignant tumors are systems consisting of various components, many of which remain poorly researched. Additionally, morphological and biochemical characteristics of the placenta and tumor tissue are discussed. In the recent years, individual researchers and research groups have demonstrated heightened interests in this problem which undoubtedly soon will lead to a deeper and stronger understanding of mechanisms of progression and metastasis of oncological diseases during pregnancy. The knowledge of the principles of normal embryogenesis as a process of intrauterine development of a fetus, as well as investigation of molecular basis of pathogenesis of spontaneous abortion will undoubtedly help in determination of new targets and development of new therapeutical molecules for cancer treatment.
