Prognostic value of low ankle-brachial index in patients with resistant hypertension
Authors: Sirenko Yu. M. , Rekovets O. L. , Polischuk S. A.
Published: July 2022

In the presence of resistant hypertension, patients have a significantly higher risk of stroke, myocardial infarction, kidney disease, heart failure, and death than patients with elevated blood pressure. Increased arterial stiffness is an important factor in determining cardiovascular risk. Peripheral artery damage is a target organ lesion, and its presence puts the patient at high or very high risk. The simplest non-invasive method of detecting peripheral vascular damage in patients is to determine the ankle-brachial index (ABI).
Aim. To detect the frequency of damage to the lower extremity peripheral arteries by determining the ankle-brachial index and its impact on the subsequent prognosis in patients of older age (>55 years) with resistant hypertension using automatic blood pressure monitors.
Materials and methods. The object of the study were patients with hypertension aged 55 years – 150 people with elevated blood pressure of the 3rd degree and 20 healthy people of the same age. The study included only those patients who did not have clinical symptoms of peripheral vascular disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus. Determination of the ABI was performed by an automatic device.
Results. The frequency of femoral artery lesions detection by measuring blood pressure on the brachial and legs in asymptomatic patients with resistant hypertension was 14.0 %. For a detailed analysis, we divided all patients with hypertension depending on the value of the ABI into two subgroups: subgroup A included patients (n = 129) with an ABI value >0.9, subgroup B (n = 21) – with the value of ≤0.9.
In patients with resistant hypertension and peripheral arterial disease, the more common factors were: longer duration of hypertension, the presence of isolated systolic hypertension and a lower level of glomerular filtration rate. Decreased ABI (≤0.9) in patients with resistant hypertension was associated with a 1.4-fold increased risk of adverse cardiovascular complications and a 1.9-fold increased risk of all-cause mortality.
Conclusions. In patients with resistant hypertension, a reduced ankle-brachial index was associated with a 1.4-fold increased risk of adverse cardiovascular complications and a 1.9-fold increased risk of all-cause mortality.
Modulating effect of HERV-W ENV on peripheral blood monocytes in patients with different types of multiple sclerosis

Published: July 2022

The aim of the study was to determine the effect of the HERV-W ENV glycoprotein on the functional and metabolic characteristics of intact and stimulated peripheral blood monocytes, depending on the type of multiple sclerosis (MS), which can contribute to our understanding of their pathogenetic role in the development of neurological disorders and to design of novel therapeutic agents.
Materials and methods. To determine the reserve capacity index (Rci) of cytokine production, HERV-W ENV glycoprotein, E. coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or ssRNA40/LyoVec were added to the monocyte-enriched cell suspension as agonists of TLR4 and TLR7/8. The study also included the evaluation of arginase activity in cell lysates of the monocyte fraction. The study involved 37 patients with relapsing-remitting type and 19 patients with progressive type of MS. The control group included 32 healthy individuals.
Results. In patients with MS of both groups, the reserve capacity of monocytes to produce IL-1β was lower than in healthy individuals, while the reserve capacity to produce TNF-α and IL-10 was almost twice as high as in the control group. This index for IL-1RA in monocytes obtained from the group with progressive MS and stimulated with HERV-W ENV was 2 times lower than the control; thus increased IL-1β values provoke chronic inflammation. The highest arginase activity in patients with relapsing-remitting MS was observed when monocytes were cultured with HERV-W ENV and LPS. In patients with progressive MS, during the cultivation of monocytes with LPS, arginase activity was significantly reduced relative to the control.
Conclusions. The results obtained indicate functional and metabolic changes in peripheral blood monocytes upon stimulation with TLR4 and TLR7/8, which may be associated with the disease course. In progressive MS, stimulation with HERV-W ENV leads to an imbalance of pro-inflammatory and regulatory cytokines, contributing to a chronic inflammation and, as a consequence, to a more severe course of the disease.

Determination of local geometric geoid model for Kuwait
Authors: Zaki Ahmed , Elberry Yasmeen , Al-Ajami Hamad , Rabah Mostafa , Abd El Ghany Rasha
Published: July 2022

Determining a precise local geoid is particularly important for converting the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) heights to orthometric heights. The geometric method for computing the geoid has been extensively used for a comparatively small region, which, in some points, interpolates geoid heights based on GNSS-derived heights and levelling heights. Several considerations should be considered when using the geometric method to increase the accuracy of a local geoid. Kuwait is used as a test area in this paper to investigate several features of the geometric method. The achievable precision is one of these aspects, the role of the interpolation method, global geopotential models, and the influence of the topographic effect. The accuracy of the local geoid can be substantially enhanced by integrating a geopotential model with a digital terrain model of the research region. It is possible to get a precision of 2–3 cm.
Legendre spectral projection methods for Fredholm integral equations of first kind
Authors: Patel Subhashree , Panigrahi Bijaya Laxmi , Nelakanti Gnaneshwar
Published: July 2022

In this paper, we discuss the Legendre spectral projection method for solving
Fredholm integral equations of the first kind using Tikhonov regularization. First, we discuss the convergence analysis under an a priori parameter strategy for the Tikhonov regularization using Legendre polynomial basis functions, and we obtain the optimal convergence rates in the uniform norm. Next, we discuss Arcangeli’s discrepancy principle to find a suitable regularization parameter and obtain the optimal order of convergence in uniform norm. We present numerical examples to illustrate the theoretical results.

Psychosomatics aspects of the pathobiography of Alfonso X ‘The Wise’.
Authors: Lupión-Cruz E.
Published: July 2022

At this article has been considered Alfonso X ‘the Wise’ (1221-1284) psychosomatics and pathobiography aspects. A great historic figure, who throughout his existence, apart from his deeds of arms and controversial political performance, has passed to posterity, especially for his extraordinary cultural contributions. Precisely, it will be those psychosomatic aspects, that intimate and reciprocal imbrication, of the somatic and the psychic, integrated into the personality of the monarch that, as the pathobiography shows, will be modified by the various events that happened to him and the experiences that he would undoubtedly experience, together with the influence of the various pathologies, some very severe, which affected him. Circumstances that will have, without a doubt, relevance in their behavior and very possibly in decision-making, which on many occasions, due to their hardness, departs from the humanistic and certainly tolerant character, that the monarch usually showed along with his extraordinary faith, as reflected in “Canticles of Holy Mary”, to the Blessed V
Language, gender and sexuality in 2021
Authors: Falabella Fabrício Branca
Published: July 2022

This year-in-review addresses the way violence and civil unrest manifested intensely in 2021, at the two-year mark of the Covid-19 pandemic, by inspecting the local dramas various authors re-narrate through the lenses of gender, sexuality and their semiotic performances. Three focal points organise the literature recontextualised here. First is the study of the lingering effects of cisheteropatriarchy in different contexts. Second, while forging a diagnosis of the present, the texts reviewed here address ongoing practices that defy the persistent colonial gaze. Third, they propose future paths that follow the decolonial route now at the centre of language, gender and sexuality research. Overall, the works resonate with the sound of the past, the fury of the present and the hope for the future. While transitioning forward with actions set forth today, they reimagine colonial yesterdays. As such, they indicate the chronotopic mobility of power-resistance performances.

A EDUCAÇÃO FÍSICA NO ENSINO MÉDIO INTEGRADO A PARTIR DOS MARCOS LEGAIS: DA NEGAÇÃO ÀS POSSIBILIDADES
Authors: BAGNARA IVAN CARLOS , BOSCATTO JULIANO DANIEL
Published: July 2022

RESUMO: Este estudo objetiva analisar como poderia ser concebida a Educação Física (EF) no Ensino Médio Integrado (EMI) nos Institutos Federais a partir dos diferentes documentos legais brasileiros, tensionados com os pressupostos teórico-conceituais que a concebem como um componente curricular integrado ao projeto pedagógico. Para isso, foi desenvolvida uma pesquisa qualitativa, descritiva e documental que, com base nos marcos legais, recorreu à perspectiva hermenêutica para tentar melhor compreender as proposições legais para a EF no EMI. Os dados mostram que trabalho, ciência, tecnologia e cultura são entendidos como dimensões indissociáveis da formação humana e necessitam estar na base das propostas educacionais dos componentes curriculares no EMI. No que se refere à EF inserida nesta modalidade educacional, sempre que possível os conhecimentos de sua especificidade e suas particularidades deveriam articular-se aos conhecimentos dos demais componentes curriculares em, pelo menos, três dimensões distintas, interdependentes ou não: com os demais conhecimentos da área de linguagens; com os demais conhecimentos do núcleo de formação geral; e com os demais conhecimentos da área de formação técnico-profissional. Assim, entendemos que à EF é atribuída a responsabilidade de contribuir com a formação de sujeitos políticos, fornecendo um quadro referencial básico que possa auxiliá-los no exercício da cidadania e no contexto de uma sociedade republicana e democrática. Nessa direção, os estudantes, ao concluir o EMI, necessitam compreender e se relacionar de forma lúcida com o universo da cultura corporal de movimento, articulando os saberes e conhecimentos produzidos neste âmbito com as demais dimensões da vida.
Estudo introdutório sobre resistência do ar: uma abordagem integrada entre modelagem e experimentação para graduandos
Authors: Abreu Leandro de , Ferrari Alysson Fábio
Published: July 2022

A influência da resistência do ar sobre um corpo deslocando-se sobre um cabo inclinado foi estudada por uma abordagem integrada englobando modelagem, solução analítica de equações diferenciais ordinárias, experimentação e estimativa de erros para os dados experimentais. O sistema utilizado permite realizar o experimento com três configurações diferentes para o corpo que se desloca, uma sem revestimento, com baixa área de seção transversal em relação à direção de deslocamento, e duas com revestimento, com elevada área de seção transversal, permitindo evidenciar experimentalmente não apenas a dependência da força resistiva com esta área, mas também com o formato do corpo. Como resultado dos procedimentos adotados, foi possível determinar propriedades como coeficiente de atrito, coeficiente de resistência do ar por unidade de massa e velocidade limite. O experimento proposto envolve materiais de baixo custo e pode servir, com as devidas adaptações, como uma atividade de ensino médio.
”A sociedade socialista não pode permitir esse tipo de degenerações”. As UMAP como dispositivos disciplinares da revolução cubana
Authors: Marzal Javier Ladrón de Guevara , Martinhago Fernanda , Caponi Sandra
Published: July 2022

Resumo: O presente artigo resulta da problematização sobre o fenômeno da repressão a setores marginados da sociedade cubana nos primeiros anos da Revolução (1965 a 1968), especificamente contra homossexuais, religiosos, artistas e intelectuais. Partindo da perspectiva foucaultiana, analisamos o contexto sociopolítico em que se desenvolveram estas ações, onde o discurso do líder Fidel Castro teve um papel decisivo. Passando logo à análise dos mecanismos através dos quais se desenvolvia uma estratégia disciplinar e de normalização das pessoas que representavam um modelo distinto ao estabelecido oficialmente. Esta estratégia resultou no dispositivo conhecido como UMAP. Além disso, se reflete sobre o papel da Psiquiatria cubana na implementação destas estratégias e as principais normas jurídicas que outorgaram legalidade a estes dispositivos disciplinares.
Ay Kakuyri Tama, eu moro na cidade: a poesia filosófica indígena de Márcia Kambeba no contexto do Estado-nação brasileiro
Authors: Rêgo Angela Bárbara Lima Saldanha , Oliveira Ana Caroline Amorim , Tolomei Cristiane Navarrete
Published: July 2022

Resumo Abordamos a poética filosófica de Márcia Kambeba como um instrumento de insubordinação indígena em primeira pessoa contra as narrativas jurídico-legais formalistas, dicotômicas e segregacionistas no contexto do Estado-nação brasileiro. Para tanto, adotamos a perspectiva decolonial para analisar o discurso da filósofa no poema Ay kakuyri tama (Eu moro na cidade), em diálogo com autoras(es) que, tal qual ela, compreendem o corpo como território do político e, seu trânsito, um lócus de enunciação contra as opressões. Assim, tomando como texto guia as estrofes do poema, o artigo se divide em três seções: na primeira, a autora convida o mundo não indígena para sua dança ritual, um convite simbólico que remete o leitor aos primórdios da invasão dos europeus nas terras dos povos originários; na segunda, ao tempo que a poeta faz um relato saudoso dos tempos de infância, compreende que a luta e a guerra são uma constante em sua existência, analogia que propomos em relação ao processo de resistência dos povos indígenas, forçados a se conformar à lógica moderno-colonial estatal; e, por fim, à guisa de conclusão, a poeta reivindica seu lugar no mundo não indígena, compreendendo que as tensões inerentes a esse estar são próprias do seu trânsito e parte da própria resistência de uma identidade que a colonialidade insiste em apagar.

World netball cardiac screening guidelines
Authors: Bogwasi Lone , Janse van Rensburg Dina Christa , Bryant Grace , Orchard Jessica , Drezner Jonathan
Published: July 2022

Sudden cardiac adverse events remain an area of concern in sport. The precise risk for netball athletes is unknown but the annual incidence of sudden cardiac death in sports is reported at 0.5-2 cases in 100 000 young competitive athletes between the ages of 12-35 years. Cardiac screening in the sport and exercise medicine context aims at identifying pathologies associated with catastrophic events when combined with physical activity. There is an ongoing debate relating to the standardisation of the pre-participatory medical assessment (PPMA). World Netball (WN) commissioned a cardiac screening policy (13 March 2022). The minimum PPMA recommended by World Netball is a history, physical examination, and a resting 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG). ECGs should be interpreted in accordance with athletespecific ECG interpretation criteria. Expansion of sports cardiology experience and infrastructure, in combination with universal emergency response planning for sudden cardiac arrest, is intended to safeguard athlete health and player welfare in WN.
Mega-OATS of the knee without specialised instrumentation: a low-cost option for large cartilage defects in a resource-restrained environment
Authors: le Roux J , von Bormann R , Braun S , Imhoff A , Held M
Published: July 2022

BACKGROUND: A 26-year-old patient presented to a specialised knee clinic in a public hospital with ongoing pain after having sustained a soccer injury six years prior. A large osteochondral defect of the distal medial femoral condyle was diagnosed. Due to resource limitations, fresh allograft or a large osteochondral autograft transplantation system (Mega-OATS) workbench was unavailable. CASE REPORT: A Mega-OATS cartilage transplantation was done, using the patient's posteromedial femoral condyle as donor tissue, and transplanted to the defect in the distal femoral condyle, a technique that has been well documented and followed up. At six weeks postoperatively, an MRI showed early incorporation of the graft tissue. Clinical outcomes were excellent at one year follow-up with the EQ-5D 5L score 11111, the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS-PS) 100%, and the Lysholm score also 100%. Radiographs at one year confirmed an unchanged graft position and showed no signs of osteoarthritis. DISCUSSION: Large osteochondral lesions in the knee (> 4 cm2) are challenging to treat, and the most commonly used modalities are fresh osteochondral allograft (OCA) or autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI). Mega-OATS of the knee has previously been described but is not commonly used due to the requirement of a specialised and expensive workbench, and fear of morbidity at the donor site. CONCLUSION: Mega-OATS of the knee is possible without a specialised workbench or tools and had good clinical outcomes at two-year follow-up of the patient. Level of evidence: Level 5
Determination of Risk Factors for Predicting Bladder-Urethra Injury in Cases of Pelvic Bone Fracture: A Retrospective Single Center Study
Authors: Ko Ji Wool , Kim Myoung Jun , Choi Young Un , Shim Hongjin , Chung Hoejeong , Jang Ji Young , Bae Keum Seok , Kim Kwangmin
Published: July 2022

Purpose: Pelvis fractures are associated with bladder and urethral injury (BUI). The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors associated with BUI in patients with pelvic fracture.Methods: Patients (> 18 years) with pelvic injury (N = 314) at our hospital between January 2015 and June 2020 were retrospectively analyzed for age, sex, cause of injury, initial vital signs, urine red blood cell (RBC) count, Glasgow Coma Scale and Abbreviated Injury Scale score, Injury Severity Score, preperitoneal pelvic packing, and femur, lumbar spine, and pelvic fractures.Results: Compared with the BUI-absent group, the BUI-present group had a greater percentage of patients who were male (79.2% vs. 55.9%; p = 0.026), had a urine RBC count/high power field (HPF) ≥ 30 (94.4% vs. 38.8%; p < 0.001), underwent preperitoneal pelvic packing (37.5% vs. 18.6%; p = 0.035), had symphysis pubis diastasis (33.3% vs. 11.7%; p = 0.008), and had sacroiliac joint dislocation (54.2% vs. 23.4%; p = 0.001). Independent risk factors associated with BUI were symphysis pubis diastasis [odds ratio (OR) was 3.958 (95% confidence interval: 1.191–13.154); p = 0.025] and a urine RBC count/HPF ≥ 30 [OR = 25.415 (95% confidence interval: 3.252–198.637); p = 0.006]. Of those with BUI, 15 patients were diagnosed at the trauma bay, and 9 had a delayed diagnosis.Conclusion: Patients with pelvic injury who display symphysis pubis diastasis or have a urine RBC count/ HPF ≥ 30 are at higher risk of BUI, therefore, further BUI investigations should be considered.
A Case Series of Trauma Resuscitation in the Intensive Care Unit Bypassing the Emergency Room During the Conversion to a COVID-19 Only Hospital
Authors: Youn Seok Hwa , Kwon Hyemi , Baek Sun Young , Hong Sung Soo , Kim Younghwan
Published: July 2022

When a patient with severe trauma is admitted to the emergency room (ER), they are evaluated before transfer to either the intensive care unit (ICU) or operating room. To minimize the time until a definitive treatment can be provided, direct operating room resuscitation can be performed. In this hospital the ER was closed during the hospital’s transition to a coronavirus disease 2019-dedicated hospital, and direct ICU resuscitation for patients with trauma was performed for a short period. To perform effective trauma resuscitation, all ICU beds were reorganized to achieve a modified, experienced nurse: patient ratio (1:2-3) and 2 beds were assigned for trauma ICU resuscitation alone. The equipment for initial resuscitation was installed and ICU nurses received training. Consultations with the hospital administration, nursing, and pharmaceutical departments were completed in advance to avoid formal problems. Conversion of the ICU for direct resuscitation procedures was performed in 4 patients.
Multiple Surgical Treatments for Recurrent Retroperitoneal Hemorrhage in a COVID-19 Patient with Respiratory Failure on Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
Authors: Park Yong-Man , Yoo Jeong Rae , Chang Won-Bae
Published: July 2022

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) may be required in patients with corona virus disease-19 (COVID-19) and respiratory failure. Anticoagulation is the standard treatment to prevent complications of ECMO and COVID-19 coagulopathy, however, there is a risk of bleeding. Some patients with retroperitoneal hemorrhage (RPH) have been treated with angiography-embolization. We report on a patient with COVID-19 on ECMO who underwent multiple operations (×5) for recurrent RPH. A 46-year-old man was admitted with COVID-19 pneumonia. ECMO with anticoagulation therapy was initiated. The patient developed RPH, caused by external compression of the inferior vena cava interrupting the ECMO inflow, and surgical hematoma evacuation was performed, with no obvious bleeding focus during the multiple surgeries. Following the patient’s recovery, a follow-up computed tomography scan showed the hematoma had been resolved, but there was a dilemma regarding anticoagulation. Lowering the threshold for surgical treatment, enabled treatment of a patient with serious RPH.

Evaluation of the chemical composition and biological activities of medicinal plants Alkanna tinctoria and Teucrium polium from Turkey
Authors: Comlekcioglu Nazan , Cirak Rıdvan , Karmis Akide , Aygan Ashabil
Published: July 2022

Since ancient times, natural products from various plants have been used for the treatment of different diseases. Alkanna and Teucrium species have been considered medicinal plants and are used popularly around the world. So, investigating the pharmaceutical properties of these plants has been the subject of interest for many researchers. In this work, total phenolic and flavonoid content, antioxydant, antimicrobial activity and in vitro enzyme inhibition properties of Alkanna tinctoria and Teucrium polium ethanol and methanol extracts were investigated. Additionally, GC-MS analyses of oil composition of the plant extracts were performed and 21 different fatty acids were identified in A. tinctoria and 18 in T. polium. Palmitic acid was the major component in A. tinctoria and saturated fatty acids constitutes a large part of the oil composistion. On the other hand, linoleic acid was the major fatty acid in T. polium and unsaturated fatty acids constitutes a large part of the oil composition. According to the results, methanol was more effective than the ethanol for the extraction of bioactive components. Both of the extracts showed a good antioxidant activity and the inhibition of bacteria and yeasts. Slight inhibitory activity of A. tinctoria and protective action of T. polium on enzyme with other results indicate that these plant extracts have potential to control microorganisms which can be promising for food industry.

The functional properties and good quality of food materials are important factors that determine the suitability for complementary foods for children. This study evaluated the functional properties and storage stability of cereal-based and legume- based complementary food (CF). Nutri-survey (2007) was used to optimize and generate six composite blends designated F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, and F6 from yellow maize (Zea mays), wheat (Triticum aestivum), millet (Pennisetumglaucum), groundnut (Arachis hypogea), soyabeans (Glycine max), and Moringa oleifera. Freshly prepared samples were subjected to analysis of functional properties. During storage, the composite blends were subjected to sensory evaluation, microbial count, moisture content, peroxide value and free fatty acid determination at 15-day intervals for a period of 60 days. Data obtained were analyzed by ANOVA and results expressed as mean and standard error of mean. Results of functional properties revealed that bulk density ranged from (0.63-0.81 g/cm3), water absorption capacity (86-90%), swelling index (0.33-1.34 cm3/g), reconstitution index (2.20-3.20) and pH (6.52-6.69). The organoleptic properties and keeping quality of the formulated complementary foods were not signiﬁcantly different (P> 0.05) at baseline and end line. Therefore, this study provides a basis for the development of acceptable complementary foods with optimal functional properties and storage stability.

Authors: Hasenay Sanda , Pehar Franjo , Velagić Zoran
Published: July 2022

Different models of scientific communication are becoming more universal and the opportunities of publishing are more numerous and sophisticated. This study analyzed the category "Food Science & Technology" in the Journal Citation Reports (JCR) database to determine how many journals are currently in it, how many journals are in several scientific categories, how many journals are published by commercial and by non-commercial publishers, what are the publishing models of each journal, journal impact factor (IF) and quartile - Q. The analysis of the publishing models and quartiles in which the journal is located showed that IF and the reputation of the journal are more important to scientists for publishing the results than the publishing policy. The interdisciplinarity of the field was determined through different WoS categories because the journals were included in 25 other categories in addition to the “Food Science & Technology” category.
Traffic Cones Detection for Autonomous Ground Vehicle
Authors: Hartono Rodi
Published: July 2022

Jelajah V-18 is an autonomous vehicle prototype where can navigate autonomously using Global Positioning System (GPS) for long-distance navigation and can find out the surrounding conditions to navigate short distances using cameras and proximity sensors. The vehicle also has a system that can search and recognize a static object using an image processing system. This research focuses on the detection of an objects in the form of traffic cones using the (Hue, Saturation, Value) HSV method to recognize objects by the color, then with the binary method the image of the object will be converted back to get the edges of the object shape and contour where the system can recognize the shape of the object. Based on the implementation and experiments conducted, the robot can detect traffic cone objects with a success rate of 100 percent at a distance of 1-6 meters and 35.67 percent at a distance of 7 meters.
A Lean Case Study On Managing Interlibrary Loan and Document Delivery Service in an Academic Library
Authors: Amno Hasniza
Published: July 2022

Interlibrary loan and document delivery (ILL/DD) is an essential service provided by academic libraries to support research activities, publication and academic programmes. ILL/DD service capitalises on resource sharing or library networking by providing library materials that are not available at the host library. The Lean Six Sigma method was applied to identify the root problems. A construction of a web-based system branded as “Request Book and Article System (RBAS)” soon followed as an intervention. A retrospective study was conducted from March 2020 to August 2021 (16 months) to evaluate the key indicators of the service. Customer feedback on service quality was also surveyed. The majority of request was for articles, 649 (87.5%), followed by book request 84 (11.3%) and ebook, 9 (1.2%). Turnaround time fell within 24 hours for the majority of requests, 494 (68.4%). The highest number was from article request category, 460 (71.8%). A high proportion of users (78%) deemed the service as “high quality”. The use of a lean approach and the development of a homegrown system have improved the ILL/DD service at our library. Here we share lean practices in ILL/DD management, focusing on transforming a manual method to a digital homegrown system development and its advantages.

Authors: ESGİN Yeşim , EKEN İhsan
Published: July 2022

The purpose of this research is to find an answer to one of the fundamental questions about the copyright of news content published on the internet and the future of online news content production. Hereof, “Is access to online news content on the internet a free right for users, or is it viewed as a commercial value that can be accessed for a fee?” According to the findings obtained from the study with 385 users; it has been observed that users who follow daily news have a low proclivity to pay digital platforms to access their news content. On the other hand, the target audience with the highest proclivity to pay for online news content has been identified as male users between the ages of 20 and 29 who have a habit of purchasing services from other digital platforms and following daily news. According to the data, online news content is not seen as having a commercial value like other digital platforms where services are purchased, and the proclivity for free access is higher among users who follow daily news.
Gazetecilik Eğitiminde Dijital Eğilimler: Türkiye’de Gazetecilik Lisans Eğitiminin Üniversiteler Arası Karşılaştırılması
Authors: ARDUÇ KARA Emine
Published: July 2022

Bilgi iletişim teknolojilerindeki gelişmeler birçok meslek grubunda ve akademik alanda yapısal ve içerik boyutlu dönüşümlerin yaşanmasına neden oldu. Teknolojik çıktıları aktif olarak kullanan meslek grubunu oluşturması bakımından, gelişen teknolojiler, gazetecilik eğitiminde bir zamanlar kabul edilen akademik eğitim pratiklerinin ve teorilerinin yenilenmesini gerekli kılmaktadır. Özellikle de Web 2.0 teknolojisinin gelişmesi kamuoyunun içeriğe erişme pratiklerini değiştirmiş, gazeteciliğin de dönüşümünü gündeme getirmiştir. Bu nedenle 21. yüzyılda gazeteciliğin, tek başına sosyolojik düşünme gücüne, meslek etiğine, güçlü bir kuramsal temele sahip kişilerden ziyade tüm bu niteliklere ek olarak çağın dilini anlayabilecek, ihtiyaçlarını karşılayabilecek, teknik bilgi ve program bilen dijital okur yazar kişilere ihtiyacı bulunmaktadır. Bu yalnızca eğitim alan bireye yüklenen bir işlev değildir. Ders müfredatlarının geleceğin gazetecilerini dijital çağın taleplerini karşılayabilecek niteliğe eriştirecek düzeyde donatılması da gerekmektedir. Bu sorunsal çerçevesinde çalışmada Türkiye’deki üniversitelerin gazetecilik lisans müfredatlarının dijitalleşmeye adapte olup olmadıklarını belirlemek amaçlanmıştır. YÖK Atlas üzerinden ‘gazetecilik’ ve ‘basın ve yayın’ isimli lisans programları olan 33’ü devlet, 6’sı vakıf olmak üzere 39 üniversite araştırmaya dâhil edilmiştir. Üniversitelerin Ders Bilgi Paketleri üzerinden dersler doküman incelemesi ile taranmıştır. Sonuçta ise gazetecilik lisans müfredatlarının grafik/tasarım ve yeni medya konularında yoğunlaştığı görülmüştür. Veri gazeteciliğinin müfredatlarda yaygın olarak yer almasına karşın yapay zekâ/robot gazeteciliğine yönelik derslerin tek bir üniversitede olduğu izlenmiştir.
Akışkan Gazetecilik: Belirsiz Dijital Medya Ekonomisinde Profesyonel Foto Muhabirliği Kimliğinin Dönüşümü
Authors: ADIYAMAN Fırat , ONURSOY Sibel
Published: July 2022

Bu çalışmada Zygmunt Bauman’ın akışkan modernite yaklaşımı çerçevesinde foto muhabirliği kimliğinin dönüşümü incelenmiştir. Sürekli “değişimin” ve “belirsizliğin” baskın olduğu akışkan modernite, gazetecilik kurumunu derin bir biçimde etkilemektedir. Çalışmada, Mark Deuze’un Bauman’ın akışkan modernite yaklaşımından uyarladığı “akışkan gazetecilik” kavramı “akışkan foto muhabirliği” olarak kavramsallaştırılmıştır. Çalışmada, gazeteciliğin belirsizlikle tanışmasına neden olan güçler incelenmektedir. Çalışmada, yeni medyaya geçişle birlikte geleneksel iş modelinin çöküşünün, foto muhabirliği emeğini nasıl etkilediği ele alınmaktadır. Aynı zamanda çalışmada, iş yaşamının bireyselleşmesinin yansıması olarak serbest çalışma modelinin foto muhabirliği kimliğini nasıl etkilediği incelenmektedir. Bununla birlikte, çalışmada “akışkan foto muhabirliği kimliği” teknolojik yöndeşme ekseninde ele alınmıştır. Nitel araştırma desenlerinden olgu bilimin kullanıldığı çalışmada, geleneksel medyadan dijital medyaya geçişle birlikte, foto muhabirliği kimliğinin köklü bir dönüşümden geçtiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre, dijitalleşmenin ekonomik sonuçları foto muhabirliği emeğinin dışsallaştırılmasına neden olmuştur. Serbest çalışma modeli, preker çalışma modelinin bir parçası olarak foto muhabirliği emeğinin bireyselleşmesine neden olmaktadır. Bununla birlikte, teknolojik yöndeşmenin çalışma pratiklerini köklü bir biçimde değiştirmesi, profesyonel kimliği oluşturan sınırların silikleşmesine neden olmuştur. Sonuç olarak foto muhabirliği kimliği, müphemleşmektedir.

Authors: BAŞARIR Murat , ZORLU Yaşar
Published: July 2022

Çalışma, 1926 yılında, Türkiye Cumhuriyeti’nin kuruluşundan hemen sonra yaptığı değişimleri uluslararası camiada tanıtmak ve ekonomik ilişkiler kurmak gayesiyle Karadeniz Vapuruyla gerçekleştirdiği Seyyar Sergi’yi, halkla ilişkiler tarihi ile halkla ilişkiler uygulama alanları açısından değerlendirmeyi ve serginin başlangıç evresinde Türk kamuoyuna gazeteler üzerinden nasıl yansıtıldığını gözlemlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma, uluslararası düzeyde tertip edilen serginin halkla ilişkiler tarihindeki yerini ve halkla ilişkiler uygulama alanları ile bağlantılarını sunma noktasında bütüncül anlayıştan, ilk seyahate başladığı dönemde kamuoyuna yansıtılışını sunma noktasında ise çerçeveleme modelinden hareket etmektedir. Sonuçta Seyyar Sergi girişimi, halkla ilişkiler tarihinde, halkla ilişkiler tabiri kullanılmadan yapılmış planlı bir halkla ilişkiler uygulama örneği olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Ayrıca serginin basınla ilişkiler, destinasyon tanıtımı, kamu diplomasisi, imaj yönetimi ve etkinlik yönetimi uygulama alanlarının fonksiyonlarını karşılar özellikler barındırdığı anlaşılmaktadır.
Network Approach in Public Diplomacy: A Critical Analysis in the Context of Mass Society Practices
Authors: GÜNEK Abdulsamet
Published: July 2022

The concept of mass society is generally considered as an emphasis on the loss of the individual in society. Gustave Le Bon defines mass society as mindless, motivated masses. Today, it is assumed that the individual in the society can think independently, be rational and question. The network society approach is based on the idea of an independent and organized individual. According to Jan Van Dijk and Manuel Castells, with the help of technology and globalization, the way of production and communication has taken the form of a more organized and complex network. The network approach in public diplomacy (Metzl, 2001; Hocking, 2005; Zaharna R. , 2007; 2010) is accepted as an effective approach of public diplomacy. The approach, which is planned around volunteerism, synergy and team belonging, is based on the production of messages and the continuous circulation of the message within the system. In this study, the activities regarding the network society approach in public diplomacy is discussed through a critical perspective. The concepts of 'volunteering', 'synergy', 'team belonging', ‘flexibility` and ‘horizontal participation’, which constitute the basic principles of the network approach, were analyzed on the basis of the mass society approach. Purpose of the study: To critically consider the network-based public diplomacy approach and to analyze the concept of network society according to the principles of the mass society approach.
