emociones y la construcción de la identidad colectiva del movimiento social antigénero peruano Con Mis Hijos No Te Metas
Authors: Carpio Obando Jesús Eduardo
Published: February 2024

En el siguiente artículo, se analiza el papel de las emociones morales y contrasubversivas en la configuración de la identidad colectiva del movimiento peruano Con Mis Hijos No Te Metas. Se argumenta que el estudio de las emociones resulta esencial para entender la acción colectiva y los significados que los activistas le dan a la movilización. Se evidencia que en este movimiento es notable la influencia de la moral religiosa judeocristiana en su acción colectiva, la cual está cargada de reglas de sentir, emociones y significados. La identidad colectiva se basa en el sustrato emocional del compromiso de los activistas con el movimiento; las emociones morales y afectivas revitalizan la causa del movimiento y fortalecen la solidaridad grupal. Además, las emociones contrasubversivas dirigidas hacia el enemigo público —el gobierno y sus aliados, como la prensa y las fuerzas del orden— buscan deslegitimar la autoridad del gobierno en temas educativos y de salud reproductiva.

In a world increasingly reliant on e-commerce, the need for comprehensive international trade regulations, ensuring fairness and inclusivity in this digital trade has become paramount. In 1998, the World Trade Organization (WTO) introduced a moratorium on customs duties for electronic transmissions, signalling a commitment to a tariff-free environment for digital commerce. However, this decision has sparked extensive debates among WTO members, particularly concerning the definition and scope of electronically transmitted content. The study delves into Indonesia's provision for imposing customs duties on digital goods transmitted electronically, offering insights into its policy background, legal framework, and implementation procedures. Employing descriptive qualitative research methods, this study aims to provide a holistic understanding of Indonesia's customs duties provision for digital imports through electronic transmission. It captures the nuances of this policy by presenting real-world data, observations, and interviews with stakeholders. Indonesia Government has regulated the importation of digital goods through electronic transmission with the issuance of the MoF Regulation Number 190 Year 2022 regarding Import Provisions for Home Use. The provisions include three main points: exclusion from some provisions of importation of tangible goods, a minimum requirement of filled-in element data in customs import declaration, and a monitoring and submissionmechanism. In conclusion, the provisions of digital goods importation, which Indonesia has implemented, accommodates usefulness and easiness to the importers in declaring import declaration. As a result, there has been a significant increase in the number of import declaration documents for digital goods since the regulation`simplementation in January 2023.

This paper provides an in-depth review of the cybersecurity dynamics within the Nigerian banking sector, emphasizing recent trends and strategic approaches to address emerging challenges. As a review paper, it synthesizes existing literature, reports, and case studies to offer a comprehensive understanding of the current cybersecurity landscape in Nigerian banks. The focus is on identifying the predominant cyber threats, analyzing the sector's response strategies, and evaluating the effectiveness of these measures in the context of Nigeria's unique socio-economic and regulatory environment. Our analysis reveals a notable escalation in cyber threats, particularly phishing, ransomware, and insider attacks, which have been intensified by the rapid digital transformation in banking services. The review identifies key factors contributing to these challenges, such as the increasing sophistication of cybercriminals, the digital literacy gap among customers, and the evolving nature of cyber threats. It also examines the strategic responses of Nigerian banks, including the adoption of advanced security technologies, enhanced staff training, and collaboration with government and international cybersecurity bodies.The paper concludes that Nigerian banks have made significant strides in fortifying their cybersecurity defenses. However, it also highlights the need for more robust regulatory frameworks, increased customer awareness initiatives, and a shift towards more integrated and proactive cybersecurity strategies. The findings of this review underscore the critical need for continuous evolution and investment in cybersecurity measures to effectively counter the dynamic and complex nature of cyber threats in the Nigerian banking sector.

The study revealed no statistically significant differences between the intervention group and control group in terms of grief and loss counselling (p >0.05). Thus, the study concluded that grief and loss counselling interventions did not help improve the social behaviours of the elderly. Grief and loss counselling has no significant effect in enhancing social behaviour of the elderly. The assessment of the grief and loss social behaviour reveals the need for further analysis to understand the effective strategies to assist elderly people cope up with the profound losses. Since the program implemented was not statistically significant. Further studies can help the influential factors on depression, stress management, self-esteem and relationship problems among the elderly.

Abstract. Remote sensing emerges as an important tool for the detection of methane plumes emitted by so-called point sources, which are common in the energy sector (e.g., oil and gas extraction and coal mining activities). In particular, satellite imaging spectroscopy missions covering the shortwave infrared part of the solar spectrum are very effective for this application. These instruments sample the methane absorption features at the spectral regions around 1700 and 2300 nm, which enables the retrieval of methane concentration enhancements per pixel. Data-driven retrieval methods, in particular those based on the matched filter concept, are widely used to produce maps of methane concentration enhancements from imaging spectroscopy data. Using these maps enables the detection of plumes and the subsequent identification of active sources. However, retrieval artifacts caused by particular surface components may sometimes appear as false plumes or disturbing elements in the methane maps, which complicates the identification of real plumes. In this work, we use a matched filter that exploits a wide spectral window (1000–2500 nm) instead of the usual 2100–2450 nm window with the aim of reducing the occurrence of retrieval artifacts and background noise. This enables a greater ability to discriminate between surface elements and methane. The improvement in plume detection is evaluated through an analysis derived from both simulated data and real data from areas including active point sources, such as the oil and gas (O&G) industry from San Joaquin Valley (US) and the coal mines from the Shanxi region (China). We use datasets from the Precursore IperSpettrale della Missione Applicativa (PRISMA) and the Environmental Mapping and Analysis Program (EnMAP) satellite imaging spectrometer missions and from the Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer – Next Generation (AVIRIS-NG) instrument. We find that the interference with atmospheric carbon dioxide and water vapor is generally almost negligible, while co-emission or overlapping of these trace gases with methane plumes leads to a reduction in the retrieved concentration values. Attenuation will also occur in the case of methane emissions situated above surface structures that are associated with retrieval artifacts. The results show that the new approach is an optimal trade-off between the reduction in background noise and retrieval artifacts. This is illustrated by a comprehensive analysis in a PRISMA dataset with 15 identified plumes, where the output mask from an automatic detection algorithm shows an important reduction in the number of clusters not related to CH4 emissions.

Abstract. Mangroves are critical blue carbon ecosystems. Measurements of methane (CH4) emissions from mangrove tree stems have the potential to reduce the uncertainty in the capacity of carbon sequestration. This study is the first to simultaneously measure the CH4 fluxes from both stems and soils throughout tidal cycles. We quantified carbon dioxide (CO2) and CH4 fluxes from mangrove tree stems of Avicennia marina and Kandelia obovata during tidal cycles, which have distinct root structures. The mangrove tree stems served as both net CO2 and CH4 sources. Compared to those of the soils, the mangrove tree stems exhibited markedly lower CH4 fluxes, but no difference in CO2 fluxes. A. marina (with pneumatophores) exhibited significantly higher CO2 and CH4 fluxes than K. obovata. The stems of A. marina exhibited an increasing trend in the CO2 flux from low to high tides, while the CH4 flux showed high temporal variability, with this species functioning as a sink before tidal inundation and becoming a source during low tides after ebbing. In contrast, the stems of K. obovata showed no consistent pattern of the CO2 or CH4 flux. Based on our findings, sampling only during low tides might overestimate the stem CO2 and CH4 fluxes on a diurnal scale. The stem CO2 and CH4 fluxes of A. marina could be 55 % and 194 % less when considering tidal influence, as opposed to ignoring tidal influence. This study highlights species distinctness in the greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes and the necessity of considering tidal influence when quantifying GHG fluxes from mangrove tree stems.
How bilinguals and monolinguals understand and talk about uncertainty and risk: An exploration of epistemic modality in healthcare contexts
Authors:   , Nissen Vanda
Published: February 2024

Uncertainty in healthcare is common, resulting in miscommunication and poor patient outcomes. Miscommunication is more likely when speaking a weaker, second language, and can be generational. Using multi-dimensional scaling three studies explored how adverbs of uncertainty (e.g., probably), often used in healthcare talk, are understood by bilinguals versus monolinguals, and by younger versus older speakers. Differences in understanding emerged, also in a qualitative study of real-life hospital communication. The findings show that mutual understanding of common words cannot be assumed. It is vital to ensure that there is mutual understanding, especially when patients and/or practitioners speak in their non-preferred language.

Authors: C Mugambi , M Kaimuri , J Kiongo
Published: February 2024

Globally, more than 2.3 million women of reproductive age were diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020 alone. Breast cancer can be detected early through breast self-examination (BSE) practice. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that women should start Breast Self-Examination (BSE) from the age of 20 years to detect breast cancer early. Early detection of the disease in the preclinical stage when the disease is localized and asymptomatic has greater chances of cure and survival. The objective of this study was to determine level of knowledge on breast self-examination among women aged above 20 years attending the Meru Teaching and Referral Hospital (MeTRH). Meru County has recorded an upsurge of breast cancer in the last five years.
Methods: The study adopted descriptive cross-sectional study design. A sample of 423 respondents selected by systematic random sampling was interviewed using a researcher administered questionnaire, and an observation checklist. Data collection tools were pretested and validated at Githongo Sub-County hospital. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data analysis, using the Statistical package for Social Sciences (SPSS) Software Version 26.
Results: The results showed that majority (57%) of the respondents had poor BSE knowledge (mean score 46.14±9.7SD). The majority (70%) had poor BSE practice with a mean score breast self-examination practice at 44.4±30SD.
Conclusions: The study concluded that both the level of knowledge and practice of breast self-examination were poor.
Recommendations: The study recommends that health care providers offer regular health education, and demonstrations on BSE procedure, using appropriate teaching aids.

Hearing Loss in the Elderly: Implications for Balance and Fall Risk
Authors: Polavarapu Charumathi , Kanchi Sumalini
Published: February 2024

Hearing loss is a prevalent sensory impairment that affects a significant population, particularly in the elderly. It has been identified as one of the most common chronic conditions among older adults, with profound implications for their physical and psychological well-being. Presbycusis, another name for age-related hearing loss, is a degenerative disorder that is frequently linked to normal aging. As the population continues to age, understanding the impact of hearing loss on various aspects of health becomes increasingly important.
In recent years, research has shed light on the connection between hearing loss and balance problems, as well as an increased risk of falls among the elderly population. Falls present a significant public health concern, contributing to substantial morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. Identifying and addressing factors that contribute to fall risk are critical for improving the quality of life and reducing the burden on healthcare systems.
This review aims to explore the implications of hearing loss for balance and fall risk from a physical therapy perspective. It examines the evidence linking hearing loss to balance disturbances and analyze the underlying mechanisms involved. Additionally, the review discusses the role of physical therapy interventions in mitigating fall risk and enhancing balance in older adults with hearing loss.
