Authors: Asselin Marlene
Published: March 2022

Preservice teachers are a greatly overlooked group of instructional partners. This article describes a one phase of an ongoing project in a teacher education program that aims to enhance pre-service teachers' personal and practical knowledge of school library programs and of the role of the teacher-librarian. In the second year of the project, reported here, qualitative analysis was conducted on students' pre- and post-writings about three focal concepts. Results showed that preservice teachers expanded their understandings of information literacy, critical thinking, and resource-based learning. Their additional unsolicited post-writings about the role of the teacher-librarian indicated formation of new insights about teacher-librarians' responsibilities as teacher, instructional partner, and information specialist.

Published: March 2022

The articles in this issue represent a microcosm of the issues confronting teacher-librarian education for developing countries and developed countries. At first glance, the professional literature appears divided between two camps. Authors from westernized cultures have offered articles on contemporary school library issues such as leadership, information literacy skills, collaborative partnership with classroom teachers, and the use of the Internet for seeking information and online courses. In this issue, we also hear from authors in the developing country of Botswana about its basic need for skilled teacher-librarians who can effectively establish and manage libraries and run library programs that encourage information-seeking behaviors among students and teachers unaccustomed to a written literacy and reading culture.
Flexible Scheduling: How Does a Principal Facilitate Implementation?
Authors: McGregor Joy H
Published: March 2022

This study investigated flexible scheduling in United States elementary libraries that had received no funding to implement the change. The larger study examined many elements of the implementation, but this article looks specifically at the role of the principal in the implementation of flexible scheduling in the six schools involved. Principals' beliefs and behaviors were described by principals, librarians, and teachers in regard to their role in implementation. Principals supported flexible scheduling because they believed it would have a positive impact on student learning. They were willing to take risks because they trusted their librarians to be leaders in the implementation process. Librarians depended on their principals to be strong advocates for the change to flexible scheduling and found that the change was facilitated by the principal's support.
The Role of the Principal in the Evaluation of the School's Library Media Specialist
Authors: Bryant Miles
Published: March 2022

As many library media specialists in the United States know, administrators' evaluation of their work seldom covers the many facets of work in today's school media center. Many factors combine to compromise the utility of the evaluation of library media specialists by the school administrator. Paramount among these factors are: (a) increased demands on the school principal as the instrument of accountability; (b) the tendency to use an evaluation model designed for teachers, not library media specialists; and (c) the dramatic changes that have occurred in the work of the library media specialist. This author analyzes briefly each of these influences and makes recommendations about altering the evaluation of the school's library media specialist to provide a more effective means of helping achieve information literacy, one of the 21st century's goals in the education of American children.
The Connecting School and the Intranet Librarian
Authors: Carter Maureen
Published: March 2022

A growing number of Scottish education authorities are providing intranet technology to schools. This article is based on grounded research investigating the role of the school librarian within an intranet environment. The evidence suggests that despite a lack of expectation by school library services and authority intranet officers, school librarians are taking on roles of intranet building, management, and content creation. It appears that far from distancing librarians from traditional areas of interest, their involvement in the intranet has promoted their relationship with whole-school resourcing and literacy support. Despite evidence that recent graduates are more likely to take on roles with the intranet, it is shown that a key factor is the attitude of the librarian and linking of the intranet to resource provision.
Developing a Self-Evaluation Model for English School Libraries
Authors: McNicol Sarah
Published: March 2022

The ability to demonstrate the impact that school libraries have on learning is becoming increasingly important. This article reports on a recent project undertaken in England by the Centre for Information Research (CIRT) on behalf of the Department for Education and Skills (DfES). The project involved a survey of school library staff, teachers, and headteachers and resulted in the production of draft self-evaluation models for English school libraries that will allow school librarians to demonstrate to teachers, governors, inspectors, and others the contribution that their services can make to teaching, learning, and attainment levels. The research team also investigated current evaluation practices and identified a number of issues that need to be addressed to ensure the successful adoption of the models in schools.

Gender Differences in the Contribution of Anger Components to Depressive Symptomatology
Authors: Iwata Noboru , Shimizu Takashi
Published: March 2022

Objective: The present study examined the association of anxiety- and anger-related components to depressive symptomatology for men and women. Methods: The study relied on a cross-sectional design. of 2,054 Japanese workers affiliated with two occupational settings, complete responses on measures for depression, anxiety, and anger, were obtained from 1,862 workers (90.7%: 1,521 men, 341 women). A stepwise regression analysis was executed by gender and age group. Results: Stepwise regression analysis revealed that main components were almost the same for both genders, i.e., trait anxiety, state anger and anger suppression. However, the explaining variances of anger were much larger for men, whereas those of state anxiety were larger for women. Anger expression outward was selected for men, but not for women. Conclusions: Depressive symptomatology was largely explained by trait anxiety, state anger, and anger expression style. For men, state anger and either expression of feelings of anger inward or outward were exacerbating their depression as compared to women. This could explain in part the gender differences in depression.

Imágenes “sin sentido aparente” en el Lugar de la Memoria, la Tolerancia y la Inclusión Social
Authors: González Castañeda Olga
Published: March 2022

This article focuses on aesthetic details related to the architecture of the LUM, which in my attempt to capture in photographs as a part of my ethnographic work, lead me to an analysis of what I call “apparently meaningless images”. These images have a “haunting” effect, in the sense given by Avery Gordon, by which they do not try to document tangible existence but recognize what could exist. Thus, Roland Barthe’s “obtuse meaning” becomes relevant and crucial in my analysis of the images of the lum. These “apparently meaningless” images respond, on the one hand, to an aesthetic of voidness that seems more in line with the ghostly presence of the disappeared and with the denialism of the “dirty war” during the internal armed conflict in Peru. On the other hand, other “apparently meaningless” images emerge from hypervisibility, sometimes contrasting and as contrapunctums between the concrete and crystal materials predominant in the architecture of the LUM, and that produce affective and political resonances that allude to racial and social tensions and exclusions that continue to prevail in the Peruvian society.

Published: March 2022

After several years of launch, the LAPAN-A2 satellite has produced a huge amount of telemetry data consisting of information on the status of the satellite's condition during orbit. The telemetry generated by the satellite is in the form of real-time telemetry and long-time telemetry. So far, telemetry data is only stored in a folder with a unique name. This method tends to be manual and makes it easier for users to analyze satellite conditions. This system was developed using the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) approach, wherein the development process has five stages, namely planning, analysis, design, implementation, and testing. This paper will describe the design of a web-based satellite telemetry information system. The system has been tested using structural, functional, and usability tests. The evaluation results show that this information system is affordable and accepted well. The usability test results show that the LAPAN-A2 satellite, telemetry data information system, has met usability needs very well. Respondents have successfully carried out many experiments. In this case, operators and satellite analysis, with a question value of 86.22%, can be answered and 13.77% unable to be answered.

Spatio-temporal Changes in the Regime of Rivers in the Pripyat River Catchment and Climate Change
Authors: Vasilivna Budnik Svetlana
Published: March 2022

In work features of a hydrological regime of catchments of the river of the Pripyat in climate change are considered. Researches of meteorological characteristics of the given territory show the tendency to growth, both temperatures of air, and precipitation, evaporation from a surface of water and ground also show the tendency to increase. That is not unequivocally reflected in change of a course of hydrological characteristics waters objects of territory. On a part of pools of the rivers the mid-annual runoff of water in the rivers in time tends to growth, and Change of levels of subsoil waters decreases for parts - on a turn - here, as a rule, tends a course in time opposite to a mid-annual runoff of water in the rivers. Change of the maximal temperature of water in the rivers in time repeats the tendency of a course of a runoff of water in them, i.e. at increase in a runoff of water in the rivers - the maximal temperature increases, and at reduction - decreases. The increase in temperature of a superficial component of a runoff of the rivers occurs because of the general increase in temperature of air in considered territory. Silt charge waters in all territory decreases, despite of increase in quantity of atmospheric precipitation and increases or reduction of a runoff of water in the rivers. The relationship between the water runoff layer and precipitation and soil moisture has a certain time delay. The average annual water temperature over time shows a tendency to increase at almost all stations, while the change in the maximum water temperature in rivers over time has a multidirectional tendency and to a greater extent depends on the change in water depth in the river, a decrease in high water maximums and frequent thaws, etc. The studies carried out show that the preservation of moisture in thick layers of soil (0 cm-100 cm) contributes to an increase in water flow in rivers and in the modern conditions of Polesie of Ukraine this will solve a number of problems with the provision of high-quality water resources for various industries and the population.

All organisms in nature interact and compete with each other. Various groups of organisms such as algae, lichens, crops and weeds have been found as allelopathic interaction and it is known that lichens have many potent secondary metabolites. The aim of this study was to determine the allelopathic effects of lyophilized ethanolic extract of Xanthoparmelia somloensis (Gyelnik) Hale lichen (XS) on tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum L.) germination and early development stage. Obtained lyophilized ethanolic extracts of XS lichen at concentrations of 50 ppm (XS-50), 100 ppm (XS-100), 200 ppm (XS-200) and 400 ppm (XS-400) were applied to tomato seeds and seedlings. In order to determine the effects caused by the extracts, germination rate and seedling growth parameters (vigor index, length, fresh weight, relative water content and pigment contents) were analyzed. According to the obtained data, there were significant decreases in germination rate and vigor index values depending on the increase in lichen extract concentration. Similar effects were also observed in root and shoot length and pigment contents. However, results of the lowest application (XS-50) were similar to control except root length and carotenoid content. The data obtained from this study exhibited that the lichen Xanthoparmelia somloensis has allelopathic effects and has the potential to be used for agricultural purposes.

Introducción: El acetaminofén es un analgésico y antipirético no esteroideo, cuyo mecanismo se basa en la inhibición de la enzima ciclooxigenasa responsable de la aparición de dolor e inflamación. En México es uno de los fármacos ampliamente usados por su efectividad, es por ello, el objetivo de este estudio fue implementar un método de validación química por espectrofotometría ultravioleta que permita la cuantificación de este principio activo.

Método: Se trabajó con 4 medios de disolución (HCl:MetOH 0,1N, HCl 0,1M, Metanol: Agua en proporción 15:85 p/v y solución amortiguadora de fosfatos 0,2M). Los cuatro medios se sometieron a una validación analítica, midiendo Significancia de la regresión lineal, precisión, estabilidad de la muestra y sensibilidad.

Resultados: Los medios HCl 0,1M, MetOH:H2O (15:85 v/v) y Buffer de fosfatos cumplen con la significancia del intercepto, linealidad del método, así como los parámetros de precisión, estabilidad y con los límites de detección (DL) y el límite de cuantificación (QL). Descartando el medio de HCl: MetOH 0,1N por no cumplir con los parámetros de linealidad.

Conclusiones: De los cuatro medios evaluados tres de ellos (HCl 0,1M, Metanol: agua y amortiguador de fosfatos) se pueden usar como alternativas en la cuantificación de este fármaco.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to characterize the use of tocilizumab in a hospital.

Method: Retrospective cohort study including adult SARS-CoV-2 infected inpatients with moderately severe infection (PaO2/FiO2 < 300). ORs for mortality and treatment success were calculated.

Results: The tocilizumab group (n=18), presented 5 days of symptoms vs 7 days in the untreated group (n=71). Minimum PaO2/FiO2 was 147.5 (95%CI: 116.7 to 194.0) vs 255.6 (95%CI: 320.7 to 452.4) (p=0.01).

No significant differences were found between the two groups concerning survival (OR=1.22; 95%CI: 0.38 to 3.92), nor treatment success (OR=0.46; 95%CI: 0.16 to 1.33). After adjusting for age, sex and total corticosteroid dose, OR for success was 0.18 (95%CI: 0.03 to 0.96), while mortality was not significant.

Conclusions: The use of tocilizumab in moderately severe hospitalized patients could decrease the hyperinflammatory state preventing disease progression.
Fumarase deficiency: a difficult diagnosis and a challenging treatment approach
Authors: Castaño Amores Celia , Nieto-Gómez Pelayo
Published: March 2022

Introduction: Fumarase deficiency is a rare autosomal metabolic disease that curse with hypotonia, hyperlacticaemia and seizures. Diagnosis based in laboratory test might be done carefully, as most of metabolic diseases present similar symptomatology: hypotony, convulsions, lactic and pyruvic acidemia.

Method: The objective is to analyse the pharmacological and nutritional approach of a neonate who presented symptoms of metabolic congenital disorders.

Results: The patient is a three-month girl with heterozygote mutation in fumarase gene, who presented clinical manifestations of the altered enzyme function. She presented hyperlacticaemia, organic aciduria and alterations of amino acid levels. First diagnosis suspected was pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency, so nutritional treatment with ketogenic diet was initiated. After medical discharge, she was hospitalized in emergency basis with cardiac arrest and metabolic decompensation. Genetic test revealed a heterozygote mutation in fumarase. Clinical symptomatology could have worsened because of the difficult diagnosis.

Conclusions: Nutritional and pharmacological treatment of fumarase deficiency is considered essential for the patient’s evolution, but further researchers must be carried out to profoundly understand the mechanism underlying metabolic inborn errors. Multidisciplinary teams would manage the disease from the point of view of diverse clinician experts so the correct diagnosis and treatment would be decided with precision.

Falls are a prevalent and severe health problem in the elderly community, leading to unfortunate and devastating consequences. Some falls can be prevented through interventions, proper management, and extra care. Therefore, studying and identifying elderly people with risk of falls is essential to minimize the falling risk and to minimize the severity of injuries that can occur from these falls. Besides, identifying at-risk patients can profoundly affect public health in a positive way. In this paper, we use classification techniques to identify at-risk patients using pressure signals of the innersoles of 520 elderly people. These people reported whether they had experienced previous falls or not. Two different types of feature sets were used as inputs to the classification models and were compared: The first feature set includes time-domain, physiological, and cyclostationary features, whereas the second includes a subset of those features chosen by Relief-F as the most important features. Our study showed that the use of features from different walking conditions and using Relief-F as a feature selection method significantly improved the model prediction accuracy, i.e. by 5.24% from the best previously existing model. The results also point out that the mean and standard deviation of the stride time, gender, the degree of cyclostationarity were the most important features to include in classification models for the identification of elderly people at risk of falling.
