Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Cho Kyoo-Lak , Kim Sun-Yun
Published: January 2024

Objectives Although many previous studies have explored the positive effects of SNS, the potential role of SNS in education, and the content of learning experiences, there is a lack of research on major issues such as differences in learning experiences, improvements of learning experiences, and the purpose of use in SNS. Thus, this study aimed to identify the current status of college students’s use of SNS in learning situations, differences in specific learning experiences on SNS according to background variables, and the relationship between specific learning experiences and the purpose of SNS use.
Methods Thus, this study collected data through a survey of 431 undergraduates and conducted frequency analysis, ANOVA, IPA, and network analysis.
Results First, a large number of students used various SNS such as Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook for various periods of time and more in the evening. Second, differences in learning experiences on SNS are well showed in the background variable of personality, with extroverted personality having a greater effect than introverted personality. In the meantime, gender differences were not showed, and major showed very limited differences. Third, among the learning experiences, behavioral rules, resolving questions, and experiencing new fields were identified as areas that need to be urgently improved. Fourth, the related purposes of use vary depending on each learning experiences, but connection and expansion, acquisition of learning information/advice were related to all purposes of use, and centrality indicators of network analysis supported this.
Conclusions In accordance with the results, related discussions were proposed and implications and recommendation for future studies were outlined.

EFFORTS TO IMPROVE THE COMMUNITY'S UNDERSTANDING REGARDING ILLEGAL ONLINE LOANS ACCORDING TO A SHARIA ECONOMIC LAW
Authors: Chastuti Alwallyah  , Muhammad Edwinsyah  , Oki Sapitri Menghayati, S.E., M.E
Published: January 2024

This research aims to explore the public's understanding of illegal online loans from the perspective of Sharia economic law in Muara Sugih Village, Tanjung Lago District, Banyuasin Regency. Illegal online lending has become a serious problem in various regions of Indonesia, with significant economic and social impacts. Especially in the context of rural communities such as Muara Sugih Village, where limited access to information and legal regulations can be a risk factor. This research uses a qualitative approach with interview, observation and document analysis methods to collect data from the local community. The results of this research indicate that the majority of the people of Muara Sugih Village have limited understanding about illegal online loans and their lack of knowledge about Sharia economic law. Factors such as urgent economic needs and the lack of halal financing alternatives influence participation in illegal online lending. To increase public understanding, efforts that need to be made include education about Sharia economic law, the risks of illegal online loans, and financing alternatives that comply with Sharia principles. Local governments and social institutions can also play an active role in providing training and education to the public about the negative impacts of illegal online loans as well as solutions that are in accordance with religious values ​​and Sharia economic law. With a better understanding of this issue, the people of Muara Sugih Village can make wiser decisions in managing their finances in accordance with the principles of Sharia economic law.
Governmentality, Science and the Media. Examining the “Pandemic Reality” with Foucault, Lyotard and Baudrillard
Authors: Sarrazin Jean-Paul , Aguirre Fabián
Published: January 2024

This article examines the legitimization process of the public health preventive measures implemented in many Western countries following the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak. Through concepts such as governmentality, disciplinarization and security mechanisms proposed by Foucault, we trace some of the basic principles and implications of the relationship between biopower and medicine, as well as the media dissemination of an official narrative on scientific truth. These reflections are complemented by the contributions of Francois Lyotard and Jean Baudrillard. Lyotard reflects on the relationship between science and a “performative game”, whose own staging is the core of its criteria of truth. Baudrillard shows the relevance of a “hyperreality” in which the signs presented by the media take precedence over the experience of the subjects. We argue that a mediatized version of science, defined through a strong disciplinarization of knowledge and the censorship of dissident voices, played a key role in the establishment of consensus and the legitimization of policies that granted extraordinary power to governments and transnational elites. Although the work of Foucault in this demonstration is essential, the contributions of Lyotard and Baudrillard provide additional elements to understand a fundamental problem: the public acceptance of “truth” as an instrument of governmentality on a global scale.
Covid-19 Pandemic and the Freedom-Security Tension: Calibrating their Fragile Relationship
Authors: Méndez Pablo Martín
Published: January 2024

Grounded in a will to adapt to dangers, and espouse both responsibility and resilience, voluntary measures have largely replaced one of the oldest public health strategies, quarantine. The Covid-19 pandemic, however, elicited a broad sweep of tactics from the archive of public health armoury. On a general level, this review essay addresses the common measures rolled out by various authorities against the pandemic - the lock-downs, reopening process, financial support and vaccination. By relating these measures to 1) the “plague-stricken town”, deployed during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in Europe by the Polizeistaat; 2) the “self-regulation strategy” that emerged with liberal ideas at the end of the eighteenth century; and 3) the “minimum security” programmed by neoliberal governmentality in the second half of the twentieth century, it is suggested that tensions between freedom and security during, and after, the pandemic can be better understood. To end, the essay noticed that the pandemic has enforced tensions in the administration and calibration of individual wishes and collective wellbeing, creating a fragile “freedom-security relationship” and new problem space for self-regulation.

Caracterização de uma transição de fase contínua em um sistema caótico
Authors: Leonel Edson D. , Kuwana Célia M.
Published: January 2024

Discutimos uma invariância de escala para a difusão caótica em uma transição de fase de integrabilidade para não integrabilidade em uma classe de  sistemas dinâmicos descritos por um mapeamento bidimensional, não linear e preserva a área no espaço de configurações. As variáveis que descrevem o sistema são a ação I e o ângulo θ. Este tem a propriedade de divergir no limite em que a ação é suficientemente pequena. A transição de fase é controlada por um parâmetro ϵ. Uma invariância de escala observada para a ação quadrática média ao longo do mar caótico prova que a transição observada da integrabilidade para a não integrabilidade é equivalente a uma transição de fase de segunda ordem, que é também conhecida como transição de fase contínua. Uma evidência clara disso refere-se ao fato de que o parâmetro de ordem se aproxima de zero ao mesmo tempo que a susceptibilidade - resposta do parâmetro de ordem à variação do parâmetro de controle - diverge no mesmo limite.

Agrarian reforms and their impact on property rights in the emerging economy
Authors: Alidemaj Avni H. , Maliqi Alban , Alidemaj Adrian
Published: January 2024

The concept of legalizing properties and constructions without permission is currently under debate in Kosovo’s field of property rights. Efforts to establish an appropriate legal framework have led to the enactment of laws and by-laws aimed at addressing illegal construction. Constructions on “social” properties without permission, informal acquisition, failure of ownership transfer, and unresolved matters related to properties confiscated under the 1933 agrarian reform have not yet been dealt with, except for their inclusion on the waiting list, which denies legal certainty. The study finds that the main cause of the issues evident in the property legalization process and the exercise of development rights on these properties is Yugoslavia’s agrarian reform of 1933. The research concludes that legalizing properties requires a normative approach and utilizing similar experiences from other Western Balkan contexts. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to analyze, using analytical, legal-dogmatic, chronological, and qualitative methods, the policies for property legalization and thus recognizing citizen property rights. The research is of great importance for decision-making institutions because it can be used as an impetus for finding the right approach, aside from the normative one, to address the issue of property legalization.

Authors: D Lerda , P Gargantini
Published: January 2024

INTRODUCCIÓN: La Yerba Mate, es una infusión hecha de las hojas del árbol Ilex paraguariensis, planta de la familia Aquifoliaceae. Es una bebida que se consume principalmente en los países de América del Sur como Argentina, Uruguay, Brasil, Paraguay y está logrando una mayor penetración en Estados Unidos como en otros países del mundo.

OBJETIVO: El presente estudio evalúa la genotoxicidad de la yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis), previamente probado para la presencia de hongos toxigénicos en cultivos específicos.

MATERIAL Y METODOS: Se utilizó el sistema Allium cepa para el estudio de genotoxicidad, las células meristemáticas fueron tratadas con una infusión filtrada de mate, con agua destilada como control negativo y Dimetilsulfóxido (DMS) al 0,2 % como control positivo.

RESULTADOS: El crecimiento radicular fue reducido dependiendo de la concentración, y al estudiar la proliferación celular se observó que la frecuencia de células mitóticas se reducía progresivamente a medida que aumentaba la concentración de yerba mate. Por otra parte, se observó un aumento en la frecuencia de células aberrantes con la concentración de yerba mate más alta (1400 µg/ml).

CONCLUSIONES: Los hallazgos de este estudio muestran que la yerba mate induce efectos clastogénicos en las raíces meristemáticas de Allium cepa.
La voz de las mujeres: el tránsito de víctimas a la legitimidad como constructoras de paces
Authors: Osorno Navarro Mara , Posada Zapata Isabel
Published: January 2024

El objetivo fue analizar las formas de afrontamiento de las violencias sexuales en mujeres víctimas sobrevivientes y su participación en los procesos de construcción de paz. Fue una investigación cualitativa a través de la Teoría Fundamentada, con el  Interaccionismo Simbólico para originar la teoría, desde los significados que surgen en la interacción entre las personas y su  entorno. Se recolectó la información con entrevistas a profundidad. La teoría construida resalta la experiencia de las violencias  sexuales, la cual simboliza desazón, exilio, destrucción de sus metas y proyectos, la dificultad para perdonar por la magnitud del  daño e incumplimiento de las leyes. Aunado a esto, las condiciones del territorio y su historia influyeron en los significados que las personas participantes asignaron a su experiencia inolvidable por las huellas del dolor; una de las formas de afrontamiento fue poder alzar su voz como un instrumento fundamental para el tránsito de víctimas a la legitimidad como constructoras de paces. Se concluye que, en la unión y en la mutualidad, encontraron la manera de legitimar sus voces y hacerlas oír por sus comunidades. El significado de la paz en las mujeres está representado en el estar en armonía, disfrutar de su cotidianidad, sentirse libres, sentirse importantes y únicas cuando hablan de la historia de dolor.

Modifiable Lifestyle Factors, Genetic Risk, and Incident Peripheral Artery Disease Among Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes: A Prospective Study
Authors: Zhu Kai , Qian Frank , Lu Qi , Li Rui , Qiu Zixin , Li Lin , Li Ruyi , Yu Hancheng , Deng Yulei , Yang Kun , Pan An , Liu Gang
Published: January 2024

OBJECTIVE

To prospectively evaluate the association between modifiable lifestyle factors and peripheral artery disease (PAD) among individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D).

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

We included 14,543 individuals with T2D from the UK Biobank. We defined a weighted healthy lifestyle score using nonsmoking, regular physical activity, high-quality diet, moderate alcohol consumption, optimal waist-to-hip ratio, and adequate sleep duration, and categorized into unfavorable, intermediate, and favorable lifestyles. We created a genetic risk score (GRS) using 19 single nucleotide polymorphisms previously found to be associated with PAD. We modeled the association between lifestyle score and PAD, overall and stratified by PAD genetic susceptibility.

RESULTS

After a median 13.5 years of follow-up, 628 incident cases of PAD were documented. A linear inverse association between the weighted lifestyle score and PAD was observed, with a hazard ratio (HR) (95% CI) of 0.27 (0.19, 0.38) for favorable compared with unfavorable lifestyle (Ptrend < 0.0001). An estimated 58.3% (45.0%, 69.1%) of PAD in this population could be potentially avoidable if all participants attained a favorable lifestyle. Moreover, the PAD GRS was associated with increased PAD risk (HR [95% CI] per SD increment: 1.13 [1.03, 1.23]). A favorable lifestyle was able to partially mitigate the excess risk of PAD associated with higher GRS, albeit as a nonsignificant interaction. Several biomarkers in the lipid metabolism, hepatic/renal function, and systemic inflammation pathways collectively explained 13.3% (8.5%, 20.1%) of the association between weighted lifestyle score and PAD.

CONCLUSIONS

A favorable lifestyle was associated with lower risk of PAD among individuals with T2D, independent of genetic predisposition to PAD.

Published: January 2024

OBJECTIVE

To assess leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) as a modifier of the diabetes/cognitive decline association in middle-aged and older participants in the Estudo Longitudinal de Saude do Adulto (ELSA-Brasil) study.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

ELSA-Brasil is a cohort of 15,105 participants (age 35–74 years) enrolled between 2008 and 2010. We evaluated global cognitive function, summing the scores of six standardized tests evaluating memory and verbal fluency, including the Trail-Making Test, at baseline and follow-up. Incident cognitive impairment was defined as a global cognitive function score at follow-up lower than −1 SD from baseline mean. Participants reporting ≥150 min/week of moderate to vigorous LTPA at baseline were classified as physically active. We assessed the association of LTPA with global cognition change in those with diabetes in the context of our overall sample through multivariable regression models.

RESULTS

Participants’ (N = 12,214) mean age at baseline was 51.4 (SD 8.8) years, and 55.5% were women. During a mean follow-up of 8.1 (SD 0.6) years, 9,345 (76.5%) inactive participants and 1,731 (14.1%) participants with diabetes at baseline experienced faster declines in global cognition than those who were active (β = −0.003, −0.004, and −0.002) and those without diabetes (β = −0.004, −0.005, and −0.003), respectively. Diabetes increased the risk of cognitive impairment (hazard ratio [HR] 1.71; 95% Cl 1.22, 2.39) in inactive but not in active adults (HR 1.18; 95% CI 0.73, 1.90). Among participants with diabetes, those who were active showed a delay of 2.73 (95% CI 0.94, 4.51) years in the onset of cognitive impairment.

CONCLUSIONS

In adults living with diabetes, LTPA attenuated the deleterious association between diabetes and cognitive function.

OBJECTIVE

The cardiovascular benefits of low-dose colchicine have been demonstrated in patients with coronary disease. Its effects were evaluated in this prespecified analysis in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) from the Colchicine Cardiovascular Outcomes Trial (COLCOT).

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

COLCOT was a randomized, double-blinded trial of colchicine, 0.5 mg daily, versus placebo initiated within 30 days after a myocardial infarction.

RESULTS

There were 959 patients with T2D enrolled and monitored for a median of 22.6 months. A primary end point event occurred in 8.7% of patients in the colchicine group and in 13.1% in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0.65; 95% CI 0.44–0.96; P = 0.03). Nausea was reported in 2.7% and 0.8% in the study groups (P = 0.03), and pneumonia occurred in 2.4% and 0.4% (P = 0.008).

CONCLUSIONS

Among patients with T2D and a recent myocardial infarction, colchicine, 0.5 mg daily, leads to a large reduction of cardiovascular events. These results support the conduct of the COLCOT-T2D trial in primary prevention.

Authors: Sanfelice EB , Heck AB da Silva , Bittencourt HR , Weber JBB , Burnett LH , Spohr AM
Published: January 2024

This non-controlled clinical study evaluated the masking effect of an infiltrant resin on mild molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) lesions. Thirty MIH-affected anterior teeth with creamy/ white opacities from 12 children aged 6-15 years received the application of an infiltrant resin (Icon- DMG). Standard photographs were taken before (T1), immediately after (T2), and 1 week after (T3) resin infiltration. Two calibrated examiners qualitatively analyzed the color match using the Fédération Dentaire Internationale (FDI) scale. The binomial distribution test analyzed the scores of the color match at T1 with T2 and T3, and McNemar’s test analyzed the scores of the color match between T2 and T3 (α=0.05). There was a significant increase in color match between T1 and T2 (p=0.0005), between T1 and T3 (p=0.0005), and between T2 and T3 (p=0.0019). It was concluded that infiltrant resin was effective in improving the esthetic appearance of creamy/white opacities on MIH-affected anterior teeth.

Krakilsk naudsyn: om korleis merksemda for sårbare liv dannar indre samanheng i Olaug Nilssens forfattarskap 1998–2020
Authors: Simonhjel Nora
Published: January 2024

Heilt sidan debuten med Innestengd i udyr (1998) har Olaug Nilssen vore oppteken av å skildre liva til sårbare og utsette einskildmenneske. Dette kjem særleg fram gjennom måten ubehagelege situasjonar og såre kjensler får avgjerande plass i romanane på, anten dei er eksperimentelle som dei første bøkene, eller har ei meir tradisjonell romanform. Tung tids tale (2017) og Yt etter evne, få etter behov (2020), tek opp omsorgsetiske utfordringar, og gjennom dei har Nilssen fått allmenn åtgaum. Denne artikkelen argumenterer for at forfattarskapen er halden saman av ei undersøking av korleis einskildmenneska sine livssituasjonar alltid er vikla inn i både emosjonelle, familiære og sosialpolitiske styringsstrukturar. Dette er tydeleg heilt frå debuten. Den indre samanhengen i forfattarskapen er mykje sterkare enn tidlegare sett. Metoden er tematiske punktnedslag i romanane. Teoretisk byggjer lesinga på affektiv kultur- og litteraturteori.
«Kva ser fluga?» Naturmiljø, plantar og dyr i prislønte nynorske biletbøker for barn etter 2000
Authors: Reed Beatrice G.
Published: January 2024

Kor naturorienterte er nynorske biletbøker for barn i vår tid? I denne artikkelen freistar eg å sirkle inn nokre svar på dette spørsmålet ved å undersøke eit korpus beståande av 13 prislønte nynorske biletbøker utgjevne etter år 2000. Inspirert av sentrale perspektiv innan barnelitterær økokritikk, kulturelle plantestudiar og dyrestudiar undersøker eg kva type miljø, plantar og dyr bøkene rommar, og kva strategiar som vert nytta i framstillinga av dei. Basert på denne undersøkinga diskuterer eg kva overordna tendensar ein kan lese ut av materialet. Undersøkinga tyder på at antroposentriske og zoosentriske tendensar dominerer. Ein nærare studie av to bøker syner likevel at samspelet mellom ulike språklege og visuelle verkemiddel i kvar einskild bok kan nyansere overordna ideologiske føringar.

Neste artigo, refletimos sobre a contribuição do filme “Chocolate” para discussões acerca da ética, enfocando o tema do desejo. Lançado em 2000, foi dirigido por Lasse Hallström, com roteiro adaptado do livro Chocolat, de Joanne Harris. Filme que pode ser compreendido como uma narrativa sobre o desejo, numa dialética entre a tradição que fossiliza o presente e o novo – representado na trama por uma mulher que chega a uma pacata vila, acompanhada só por sua filha, e que, com sua culinária, promove uma revolução no desejo (que transforma o corpo) dos moradores do vilarejo. O filme problematiza uma compreensão antropológica, que implica grandes impasses discutidos pela ética, ainda hoje impactada pelo dualismo cartesiano. O filme “Chocolate ajuda na crítica a essa antropologia dualista, discutindo a dinâmica do desejo e desvelando sua dimensão profunda. Depois de uma problematização sobre a fundamentação antropológica da ética, apresentamos uma reflexão crítica sobre o desejo na tradição espiritual cristã. Finalmente, com base na teopoética de Rubem Alves, apontamos no filme elementos de uma concepção antropológica, que compreende o desejo como elemento central que dinamiza a vida humana, e que não deve ser negado, mas integrado à vivência de uma espiritualidade que inspire uma ética voltada para a defesa da vida. Metodologicamente, este artigo está baseado numa pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, de caráter exploratório, que trabalha com a perspectiva de que o cinema é uma linguagem muito apropriada para a revelação religiosa e para a discussão da religião.
Deus como personagem em Jorge Luis Borges
Authors: Magalhães Antonio Carlos de Melo , Figueirêdo Fernanda Medeiros de
Published: January 2024

Deus, personagem apresentado pelo escritor argentino Jorge Luis Borges ao longo de sua obra, de acordo com esta pesquisa bibliográfica, é o verbo, a própria escrita que está em constante diálogo com outros deuses que, juntos, formam uma teia de correlações que podem ser harmônicas ou discordantes, com a potência de romper paradigmas e criar novos pactos linguísticos/literários. Como análise desse processo metalinguístico se delimita, inicialmente, o conto O Aleph (1949) para tratar da concepção da personagem enquanto ser que se expande a partir da proposta de infinitude da linguagem. Logo, a origem tão debatida no texto está na escrita ficcional e poética movida pela intertextualidade revisitada e presente em variados universos, especialmente o bíblico/cabalístico. Já a relação de repetição inserida nos contos e ensaios do autor evidencia um novo flanco de possibilidades à literatura equiparada ao ideário de biblioteca que povoa a ficção e a autobiografia do autor. A palavra criadora assume o controle da construção de Deus e todos os seus prolongamentos textuais que se replicam em discursos teológicos entre o natural e o sobrenatural da história lida e recontada incansavelmente.
sacralidade do inútil
Authors: Mendes Danilo
Published: January 2024

Neste artigo buscamos apresentar como a afirmação da inutilidade da vida se apresenta como modo de resistência à lógica mercadológica do capitalismo. Para tal, buscamos primeiramente uma leitura de Leminski apresentando como o gesto inútil da poesia toma contornos teológicos na medida em que transubstanciam palavras. Em segundo lugar, apresentamos o pensamento de Krenak atestando como a inutilidade da vida é necessária para a sobrevivência da terra contra sua exploração concreta e ideológica. Nesse ponto, o que apresenta contornos teológicos é a própria justificativa para a exploração – do ser humano e da terra. Por fim, buscamos dialogar com a busca modernistas por um espírito nacional apresentando como ele continua seguindo uma lógica moderna/colonial que, por fim, acaba por reforçar a mercantilização da vida humana através da afirmação de sua utilidade.

Imparcialidade dinâmica
Authors: Camacho Luciana da Silva Paggiatto
Published: January 2024

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo geral realizar um estudo da mudança de paradigma sobre o princípio da imparcialidade a partir da Constituição, dos valores, das normas fundamentais e dos princípios corroborados pelo atual Código de Processo Civil. Quanto aos objetivos específicos, propõe-se uma contextualização necessária com Plano Global de Acesso à Justiça, a Emenda Constitucional nº. 45/2004, o II Pacto Republicano e, neste sentido, os compromissos assumidos pelo atual Código de Processo Civil e a Justiça Social, em que se impõe uma reconstrução do princípio da imparcialidade, em que o julgador abandona a postura equidistante e neutra com o escopo de proporcionar efetividade, isonomia e justiça. Nesse sentido, destaca-se o protagonismo do Poder Judiciário, como um agente transformador da sociedade e o consequente estudo em torno do princípio da imparcialidade do julgador. Para tanto, impõe-se um recorte metodológico, que se debruçará sobre a leitura do princípio da imparcialidade do órgão julgador, se socorrendo da metodologia científica hipotético-dedutiva, por meio do raciocínio dedutivo e da observação da realidade social e, como técnica de pesquisa, os estudos utilizar-se-ão do ordenamento jurídico, do acervo bibliográfico doutrinário, como obras literárias, teses, dissertações e artigos científicos correlacionados à temática proposta neste estudo além do cotejo jurisprudencial. Quanto aos resultados, elenca-se (i) a necessidade de uma releitura interpretativa do ordenamento jurídico, alinhado à Constituição, numa convergência com os valores e paradigmas instituídos pela ordem constitucional, em que se firma o posicionamento de que é inicialmente necessário compreender para depois interpretar; (ii) impõe-se a necessidade de uma reflexão sobre o implemento das normas constitucionais e de sua efetividade, não apenas para a promoção da salvaguarda do Estado Democrático de Direito, mas sobretudo pela efetividade dos objetivos e dos fundamentos republicanos estabelecidos nos artigos 1º ao 4º da Constituição, reafirmando a efetividade dos direitos fundamentais; (iii) nesse contexto, a releitura necessária e imprescindível do conceito em torno do princípio da imparcialidade em seu aspecto material, ou seja, da imparcialidade dinâmica. Diante do arquétipo apresentado, pretender-se-á como conclusão científica, incitar o debate sobre os antigos conceitos que orbitam em torno de questões que envolvem o princípio da imparcialidade do órgão julgador e, sob a luz da Constituição e do contexto social contemporâneo, perquirir a reconstrução de paradigmas e novos conceitos, dentre os quais se apresenta: o princípio da imparcialidade dinâmica.
