Identifying Other People’s Perspective and their Facial Emotions – A Comparison between Patients on Long-term Second-generation Antipsychotic Treatment for Schizophrenia and Neurotypical Controls
Authors:   School of Psychology, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, West Midlands, United Kingdom, Andrade Conde Helena de
Published: November 2021

Previous studies report that the inhibition of one’s own perspective in favour of acknowledging somebody else’s perspective relates to the neurotypical development of Theory of Mind (ToM) processes. ToM processing seems to be negatively affected in patients diagnosed with schizophrenia (PwS). Different tasks, using different populations, have been used to examine ToM (e.g. Hinting, facial emotion recognition, on-line perspective-taking), making generalizations problematic. We investigated ToM processing, using different paradigms, in one patient group on long-term second-generation antipsychotic treatment for schizophrenia and in neurotypical controls. Methods: Twenty-five patients on treatment with second-generation anti-psychotic medication for schizophrenia for more than ten years and neurotypical controls took part in a Hinting task, a facial emotion recognition task, and an on-line visual computational perspective-taking task. A battery of neuropsychological tests provided the input of a Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Results: Patients performed significantly less effectively than controls on the Hinting Task, and even patients in remittance struggled more with the task. No significant differences in facial emotion recognition between groups were found. The on-line perspective-taking task results revealed that controls, but not patients, presented an intrusion of the other perspective when judging their own perspective (altercentric behaviour). Reaction time results revealed that patients were significantly slower than controls when evaluating the “Other” perspective. The results of the perspective-taking task were examined further by relating them to components from the PCA. Errors in perspective-taking appeared correlated mostly to difficulties in mentalizing and cognitive control (neurotypical participants) and to hinting comprehension skills (patients). Conclusions: Results suggest that mentalizing and cognitive control are relevant functions for perspective-taking and that even after long-term treatment with second-generation antipsychotics, patients still have more difficulties in judging the Other perspective. The facial emotion recognition task suggested that facial emotion recognition is a separate interpretation skill not directly related to ToM
The Many Faces of Child Emotional Maltreatment
Authors:   York University, Canada, Rokach Ami
Published: November 2021

Emotional maltreatment is a form of child abuse that may leave no physical scars, but has deep and long-term consequences. When compared to the effects of physical and sexual abuse, its impact has been historically neglected by researchers, despite its existence in all other forms of maltreatment. Beyond its recipient, the alarming effects of emotional abuse are believed to overcome even trans-generational barriers within the household. This poses great risks to the developmental outcomes of children having undergone these circumstances and their future kin. As such, this brief review will describe the signs of emotional maltreatment, its effects, and what can be done to address it.

UV-Sensitive syndrome (UVSS) is a rare skin disorder that is characterized by heterogeneous phenotypic spectrum of skin freckling, telangiectasia and acute sunburn. UV-Sensitive syndrome (UVSS) usually inherit in autosomal recessive pattern. So far, only 18 patients from nine different families (i.e. Japanese, French, Israeli, Iranian and Pakistani) have been reported in the scientific literature. Its precise prevalence is still unknown, but according to an estimation, it prevails with the ratio of 1:100,000 worldwide. Until now, only three genes have been reported to be involved in UV-Sensitive syndrome, including ERCC6, ERCC8 and UVSSA. Among these genes, UVSSA is reported to be more prevalent among different ethnicities, including Pakistan as well. Physiologically, UV-Sensitive syndrome genes are involved in transcription-coupled nucleotide excision pathway. In order to reduce the disease severity, Continuous..
A call for revamping the policy on import process of anticancer drugs in Pakistan
Authors: Elahi Ehsan , Siddiqui Adeel
Published: November 2021

Madam, cancer therapy in Pakistan is a costly treatment financially exhausting patients and their caregivers. Due to the sky high costs of treatment, there is a lack of cancer care facilities in the country. The sale and regulation of anticancer drugs and biologics is controlled by the Drug Regulatory Authority Pakistan (DRAP). DRAP is responsible for granting No Objection Certificate (NOC) to import unregistered drugs either for the patient or the institutional use of a hospital, both subject to renewal.
This process can take up from a minimum of 10 days to a maximum of 30 days, for an individual patient it may take up to 1 to 3 days. This was a task almost unachievable before the formation of DRAP. (1,2)
In Pakistan, there have been challenges such as price hike in local medicines (3), anticancer drug shortages due to unavailability of active pharmaceutical ingredients (4) as well as COVID19 related raw material and drug availability (5). The average time for importing an unregistered drug from outside the country is about 4-6 weeks, which may be further delayed for months.
Our discourse aims to bring attention to this issue, as delay in initiation or continuation of treatment significantly reduces the chances of the patient’s survival with time, which is something they do not have much of We propose the following steps as part of making this process easier for the stakeholders and patients alike:

Reduce the time of import of unregistered drugs to 1 week (revamp import process/fast-track)
Decentralize authority to provincial DRAP to reduce the burden
Once an unregistered drug is imported, it should be registered in the list of special status drugs to fasten future process
Facilitate the cancer centers on procurement of import medicines.
Hospitals who face inventory challenges- should be able to easily borrow an imported medicine item from a nearby hospital where it is available.
Exempt custom duties and taxes on import of such medicines
Encourage local manufacturing of generic drugs
Abolish regularity duties on import of raw material of said medicines for the manufacturer of such generic drugs
Allow multiple sources of drug import
Trainee program for DRAP officials dealing with biologics
Derive an online process/portal to communicate and update patients and hospitals for delays and implement procedures to deal with such issues (6).

Authors: Zahar Nur Farahiyah Binti , Halim Lilia Binti
Published: November 2021

Kanak-kanak tadika yang diberikan pendedahan awal dalam pembelajaran Sains dapat memberi ruang kepada mereka untuk menerokai alam sekeliling secara lebih saintifik. Malahan, pendedahan melibatkan tajuk yang abstrak seperti elektrik dapat memberi peluang kepada mereka untuk memperoleh pengetahuan yang pelbagai dalam bidang Sains. Oleh itu, kajian ini dijalankan untuk menerokai faktor-faktor yang boleh mempengaruhi kanak-kanak tadika dalam memahami tentang konsep elektrik. Reka bentuk kajian yang dilaksanakan adalah secara kajian kes dengan melibatkan kajian kualitatif. Seramai dua orang kanak-kanak berbeza jantina yang bersekolah di salah sebuah tadika swasta di Negeri Sembilan menjadi peserta dalam kajian ini. Instrumen kajian ini telah melibatkan ujian diagnostik dalam bentuk three-tier test, temu bual serta analisis dokumen dalam menerokai faktor yang mempengaruhi kefahaman kanak-kanak terhadap konsep elektrik. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa miskonsepsi turut berlaku dalam kalangan kanak-kanak tadika dan terdapat pelbagai faktor yang mempengaruhi kefahaman mereka dalam memahami konsep elektrik. Antara faktor yang mempengaruhi kefahaman kanak-kanak tadika berkaitan konsep elektrik adalah faktor murid, guru, ibu bapa serta faktor luar seperti televisyen, rakan, buku dan juga internet. Menerusi faktor tersebut, didapati bahawa kanak-kanak lelaki mempunyai kefahaman yang lebih mendalam dalam konsep elektrik berbanding kanak-kanak perempuan. Tambahan itu, faktor luar yang melibatkan televisyen dilihat memberi pengaruh yang besar kepada kefahaman kanak-kanak tadika dalam memahami konsep elektrik. Justeru, faktor yang terlibat boleh membantu guru dalam mencari jalan penyelesaian untuk mengelakkan berlakunya miskonsepsi dalam kalangan kanak-kanak dan memberi penjelasan secara saintifik kepada mereka. Hal ini supaya kanak-kanak tidak membawa miskonsepsi ke peringkat yang seterusnya.

Masyarakat mempunyai peranan penting yang berupaya menjadi agen perubahan dalam sesebuah negara. Potensi aktivisme sosial dilihat sebagai aktiviti dan tindakan proaktif masyarakat yang mampu memberi kesan terhadap perubahan sosial, ekonomi, dan politik. Walau bagaimanapun, aktivisme sosial merupakan bidang dominan di barat dan sering dikupas diluar lensa agama. Melalui kaedah sorotan kajian dan konseptual, artikel ini membincangkan penglibatan masyarakat dalam aktivisme sosial menerusi perspektif modal insan. Dapatan dari perbincangan mendapati bahawa kurangnya hubungkait aktivisme sosial dalam aspek modal insan yang berteraskan perspektif Islam. Aktivisme sosial tidak terhasil hanya disebabkan oleh pilihan peribadi masyarakat semata-mata, tetapi perlu diterapkan dengan modal insan yang berteraskan aktivisme dakwah, ilmu pengetahuan, kerohanian dan akhlak.

The Vietnam Petroleum Institute (VPI) is implementing a multi-task national level project entitled “Research, evaluate, select and develop a pilot programme for industrial application of solutions to improve oil recovery coefficient for clastic oil bearing reservoirs of oil fields in the Cuu Long basin, on the continental shelf of Vietnam”. Specifically, detailed evaluation studies have been carried out from geological characteristics, reservoir engineering, production to EOR mechanism to develop technical criteria for the process of manufacturing and evaluating the efficiency of the chemical system to optimise the laboratory scale, propose the production and injection scenarios to optimize the development plan as well as evaluate the efficiency of increasing oil recovery coefficient on the reservoir simulation model; conduct production at pilot scale and implement industrial application testing on the field scale for clastic oil bearing reservoir, Cuu Long basin.

The article presents the results of research, evaluation, selection and successful manufacture of a VPI SP chemical system based on the combined mechanism of anionic - non-ionic surfactants and polymers to ensure satisfying the harsh technical requirements of oil fields in Vietnam such as resistance to high temperature, high pressure, high mineralisation, very low surface tension, optimal micro-emulsion, low adsorption onto reservoir rocks, reducing residual oil saturation in the reservoir. Results of the evaluation of increased efficiency of oil recovery on actual samples of Miocene reservoir showed an increase of over 21%. The VPI SP chemical system has been included in the plan of industrial-scale testing by Vietsovpetro in Bach Ho and other producing fields in the clastic sections of the Cuu Long basin.

Cumhuriyetin ilanından sonra birbiri ardına hızla gerçekleştirilen yenilikler müzik alanında da etkisini göstermekteydi. II. Mahmut döneminde başlayan batılılaşma hareketinin müzik alanında sistemli bir şekilde devamı sayılabilecek bu yeniliklerle çağdaş çok sesli Türk müziğini yaratabilmek adına pek çok adım atılmıştır. Yetenekli Türk gençlerinin özellikle Viyana ve Paris başta olmak üzere Avrupa’nın önemli merkezlerine müzik eğitimi almak için gönderilmesi de bu adımların en önemlilerindendir. Türk Beşleri adıyla anılan bu gençler arasında Hasan Ferid Alnar da bulunmaktadır. Çocukluğunu müzik seslerinin hiç susmadığı bir evde fasıllar ve meşkler arasında geçiren Ferid Alnar henüz on iki yaşındayken en iyi kanun icracıları arasında gösterilmektedir ve aynı zamanda klasik kemençede de ustalaşmaktadır. Çok sesli olarak bestelediği eserlerde klasik Türk müziğini ustalıkla kullanabilmesi hem besteci hem de icracı olarak geleneksel müzikte de sahip olduğu yetkinliğin sonucu olarak değerlendirilebilir.
Bu makalede Hasan Ferid Alnar’ın keman ve piyano için bestelediği süitinden Taksim bölümünün performansında geleneksel etkinin makamsal analiz ve keman teknikleri bağlamında incelenmesi amaçlanmaktadır.
The Conflict between Ahlus-Sunnah and Tijāniyya Muslims in Ghana
Authors: Adam Abdussalam
Published: November 2021

The paper examines the theological debates between the Ahlus-Sunnah and their Tijāniyyah Brotherhood counterpart in Ghana. It traces the history of Islam in Ghana before listing the myriad of issues that led to violent conflict between these two Muslim groups. The Sharī‘ah rulings pertaining to the subjects of dispute are then highlighted. The study adopted the analytical, historical and descriptive research designs of the survey type. A self-developed questionnaire, two separate structured interview schedules and Focus Group Discussion guides were used for data collection among the members of the two groups. Using the stratified random sampling technique, 1,200 copies of questionnaire were administered to selected individuals who are members of the two religious groups (600 participants per group). Data were analyzed using simple percentage. Findings revealed that majority of the Ahlus-Sunnah (75%) and the Jallo Bāba group of the Tijāniyyah (80%) hold tenaciously to their views and, therefore, were more prone to violence. Findings further showed that socio-economic factors like occupation, type of education received and educational attainment play significant roles in the conflict. Whereas doctrinal and interpretational differences are the remote causes of the conflict, radical preaching which is sustained by provocative songs is responsible for the conflict’s eruption. Countries like Saudi Arabia, Iran, Bahrain and Egypt also exacerbated the violence through the support given to both parties. Evidence is, however, lacking to justify the claim that ethnicity aid the clashes. The paper concludes with an admonition for the feuding parties to place higher premium on the Islamic teachings on peaceful co-existence among people.
Light Cones as Quantum Phenomena
Authors: Bollinger Terry
Published: November 2021

Quantum erasure experiments push the boundary between the quantum and classical worlds by letting delayed events influence the state of previously recorded and potentially widely distributed classical information. The only significant restriction to such unsettling violations of forward-only causality is that the distribution of forward-dependent information cannot cross out of the light cone boundaries of the event in the past, a feature that ensures no violations of causality — no rewriting of anyone else's recorded histories — can occur. The erasure interpretation of this conundrum requires rewriting of information recorded and distributed in the past, which would itself be a violation of causality. The quantum predestination interpretation removes the causal rewriting issue. However, quantum predestination requires detailed coordination of inputs from outside of the forward-dependent event's light cone, thus massively violating the same limit that prevents causality violations in such events. Yet another approach is to invoke the Schrödinger's cat variant of quantum erasure in which arbitrarily complex classical events within the light cone become quantum dependent upon the future event. As with all Schrödinger's cat interpretations of quantum mechanics, this variant of quantum erasure violates causality by discarding local classical histories such as the information-rich state of the cat's body. The most straightforward interpretation of erasure experiments is to follow the lead of the equations themselves, which transform on paper as if their components are independent of ordinary space and time limits, up to the limits imposed on them by the speed of light. Interpreting the light cone of each quantum system as an atemporal, aspatial unit in which classical time and space have no meaning results in a multi-scale, matter-dependent definition of spacetime in which every light cone is a singular quantum entity. In such a universe, both time and space are defined not as pre-existing, mass-independent continuums but as the consensus of vast numbers of constantly interacting and mutually limiting quantum-entity light cones.

Pensar la Educación Sexual desde las fronteras. Análisis de una experiencia: "las pibas" como autoridad epistémica
Authors: Lozza Maria Eugenia , Fernandez Chein Guadalupe
Published: November 2021

Socializamos aquí una experiencia llevada a cabo por un grupo de docentes, de nivel medio, que ha conformado un Equipo ESI. Nos referimos al Proyecto de Promotoras Estudiantiles de Género, que vibra en una escuela que se encuentra atravesada por un complejo entramado de relaciones sociales. El mismo, busca aportar a la construcción de un proyecto educativo que habite los intersticios de la escuela formal desde una pedagogía otra. El contexto en el que se encuentra inscripta la escuela, configura las identidades estudiantiles, sobre las que recaen múltiples opresiones de género, clase, nacionalidad. Las juventudes subalternizadas que habitan esta escuela invitan a romper con la categoría monolítica de juventud, y ello implica un desafío para que nuestras prácticas docentes no reproduzcan, en términos de Guha (2002) un colonialismo discursivo.
Filosofía y Poesía: un intersticio para (re)pensar la noción de ‘sujeto’.
Authors: Prado Carli , Pereyra Robledo Lucía
Published: November 2021

La propuesta de esta narrativa es, por un lado, exponer una forma posible de la experiencia de dar talleres de filosofía por fuera del espacio académico y, por otro lado, acercar la experiencia particular del taller Filosofía y Poesía, a través de consideraciones en torno al abordaje de la noción de ‘sujeto’.

Este taller surge a partir de la necesidad de armar un espacio de experimentación en torno a una subjetividad que aparece en/a través de la escritura, al cual lo convoca dar una respuesta posible a la búsqueda de un hábitat propicio para pensar en torno al ‘sujeto’, teniendo que preguntarnos, inevitablemente, quién es aquel de quien estamos hablando e inclusive quién es ‘yo’. Echando mano de producciones de Audre Lorde, Gloria Anzaldúa, val flores, entre otres, pretendemos, además de contextualizar los modos de nuestro hacer en su carácter compartido, brindar materiales para pensar/nos y pensar una vinculación posible entre Filosofía y Poesía como disparador de otro pensar, de un pensar poético.
profesor de posgrado se despertó temprano
Authors: Porter Luis
Published: November 2021

Este cuento es una composición literaria en la que se intenta criticar agudamente las costumbres y vicios de muchos profesores y profesoras que en una planta académica avejentada proliferan haciendo inconmensurable daño a los que pasan por sus manos. El cuento tiene una intención moralizadora, lúdica y más que nada, burlesca, aparte de lo dramático. Es decir, se trata de una sátira. El protagonista es un profesor que alguna vez hizo en Londres su doctorado, siguiendo un proceso que lo expuso a múltiples presiones y humillaciones. Ya en su patria tiene la convicción que es su turno para hacer con otros lo que hicieron con él, (un criterio lamentablemente muy común) discriminar a los que no coinciden con el perfil británico que el protagonista creyó haber introyectado. Enfundado en su atuendo decimonónico, reflejo devoto de la imagen de su padre y abuelo, (los mismos que lo iniciaron en el ritual de las humillaciones), ese día se prepara como sinodal de una defensa de tesis de un alumno cuya imagen, clase social y presencia desencadena en él, el resentimiento y rechazo que ha acumulado a lo largo de su vida. Suponemos que dicho candidato no pasará la prueba con los arcaicos estándares que este profesor aplicará.

Published: November 2021

The airline industry is one of the industries that were the most severely affected by the spread of COVID-19. As the travel demand was plunged, some airlines declared bankruptcies while others took strategies to cut the expenditures and revise the revenue stream (from the passenger flights to air freight). In this study, we assess the performance of Korean Air by examining the economic cost of COVID-19 on the overall airline industry and discussing how airlines coped with the plunged demands. Additionally, we examine the effect of external factors including government policies on each airline’s performance. In the end, the study highlights the significance of flexibility and agility in business decisions, especially when it comes to the decisions for risk management. In doing so, this study addresses the question, what is the most critical factor for business strategies that contribute to successful risk management?

Published: November 2021

The purpose of this paper is to assess the effect of COVID-19, nationwide lockdown, and measures taken by the central bank to adjust the consumer behavior of households in Maharashtra, India. This study used a structured questionnaire to achieve the objectives with a sample size of 221 and statistical tools like Logistics regression, Kruskal Wallis Test, Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test, and Chi-Square Test. The results indicate that COVID-19 decreased the consumption of the household and that there was a significantly positive relationship between the level of consumption during lockdown and age, gender, number of dependents, income, education level, and region. People tend to lower their consumption for non-essential categories and increase for essential ones. The current study is considered the first of its kind conducted in Maharashtra, India. To the best of our knowledge, there were no such studies regarding measuring the impact of COVID-19 on household consumption.

LA FORMACIÓN PROFESIONAL BÁSICA: OPORTUNIDAD PARA LA EMPLEABILIDAD ACTIVA ÓPTIMA EN PAÍSES DE HABLA HISPANA
Authors: Collados-Torres Lorena
Published: November 2021

La tasa de abandono escolar temprano y la escasa cualificación laboral con la que los adolescentes se incorporan en distintos países al empleo provoca que las condiciones en las que desarrollan su trabajo sean insalubres. Ante esta realidad, las distintas políticas educativas de países como España, México, Brasil o Chile han creado diferentes programas de formación profesional por competencias, con la finalidad de que los jóvenes puedan continuar su proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje, con una alternativa a la educación reglada, que contempla conocimientos teóricos y aplicación práctica. Sin embargo, los datos proporcionados por los diferentes estudios realizados no arrojan datos alentadores con respecto a la eficacia que estos programas podrían desempeñar en la sociedad, en cuanto a las desigualdades económicas y sociales, al no equiparar la igualdad de oportunidades en la formación para el empleo. Por ello, el objetivo de este estudio es contrastar los proyectos que se han ido creando en los últimos años y los escasos beneficios que estos han alcanzado si se analizan los principios fundamentales de estos. Para ello se ha realizado una revisión bibliográfica sistemática de la presencia de la formación profesional en distintos países de habla hispana y se ha contrastado con los análisis estadísticos que se han realizado en la población de 15 a 19 años, atendiendo al nivel educativo alcanzado y la correspondencia con el acceso al empleo. Como conclusión, se propone una revisión entre los objetivos de estas alternativas educativas y su rentabilidad en el acceso al mercado laboral.
EFECTO DE LA METODOLOGÍA CONSTRUCTIVISTA SOBRE LA MOTIVACIÓN EN EL ALUMNADO DE EDUCACIÓN PRIMARIA
Authors: Montesinos García María Victoria
Published: November 2021

La etapa de Educación Primaria se ha aplicado bajo un enfoque tradicional desde su integración en la Enseñanza Obligatoria y no con propuestas educativas o metodologías que potencien el carácter experiencial/manipulativo de los contenidos. Es necesario que los niños se sumerjan en un proceso de Enseñanza-Aprendizaje constructivista que les permita aprender a hacer haciendo y así, generar en ellos esa motivación por el propio proceso. El presente trabajo refleja un diseño de investigación cuasi-experimental sobre cómo influyen dos tipos de metodologías contrapuestas (tradicional frente a constructivista) en el grado de motivación y consolidación de los contenidos en el alumnado del 1º curso de Educación Primaria en un colegio público de la Región de Murcia, a través de la aplicación de actividades globalizadas relacionadas con los contenidos propuestos en el Decreto 198/2014, de 5 de septiembre, por el que se establece el currículo de la Educación Primaria en la Comunidad Autónoma de la Región de Murcia. Se analiza el efecto que tiene sobre la motivación de los niños el enfoque tradicional frente a un enfoque constructivista. La elección de desarrollar esta indagación cuasi-experimental viene determinada por una falta de motivación en el alumnado de esta etapa y por el sesgo producido en los contenidos, pues la consolidación y duración de los mismos no se reflejan a lo largo del proceso educativo. Por tanto, estos enfoques de enseñanza son recomendables por su efecto sobre la motivación y por su potencial para abordar múltiples contenidos.

Abstract. Most, if not all, national programmes for radioactive waste management pledge their overall commitment to safety or – in the case of radioactive waste disposal – to long-term safety. Therefore, it may be somewhat surprising to find that the term “safety” is hardly defined in these programs. The same holds for some of the core international guidance literature on the deep geological repository (DGR) “safety case” concept. With respect to stakeholder concern over the safety of geological disposal, it seems, however, advisable to seek common ground in the understanding of the idea of “safety”. Hotzel and Schröder (2018) reviewed the most relevant international guidance literature for explicitly or implicitly provided definitions of “safety” in the context of radioactive waste disposal. Based on this study – and on the finding that a practical, useful-for-all definition of “safety” is not provided in the scanned literature – they developed a tentative dictionary-style definition of “safety” that is suitable for everyday use in the DGR context. In the current contribution I embed, expand and update the 2018 study at both ends: As an enhanced introduction to the 2018 study, I lay out a basic concept of “sound” glossary definitions, namely glossary definitions being both practical and correct (and what this means). The thesis is that sound glossary definitions can facilitate mutual understanding between different stakeholder groups. As an update to the actual proposal for the definition of “safety” from the Hotzel and Schröder (2018) paper, that was presented and discussed at the Waste Management Conference 2018, I review the latest international guidance literature and the stakeholder concerns raised at the 2018 conference in order to present a revised definition. As a seed of discussion, it may help to eventually expose possible mismatches in the base assumptions of safety experts and other stakeholders and thereby support meaningful communication.

Abstract. EURAD, the European Joint Programme on Radioactive Waste Management (RWM), is the European Research Programme on RWM, aimed at supporting member states with
the implementation of their national programmes. It brings together over
100 organisations from different backgrounds and countries, which work
together in RD&D projects, Strategic Studies and Knowledge Management
(KM). The importance of KM is recognised by EURAD and reflected in a number of
activities. One essential activity is the capture of the current State-of-Knowledge in the field of RWM and its transfer to the implementation of the
different national programmes. This is done by different types of Knowledge
Documents that are made available through a dedicated IT tool (e.g. a
Wiki). The development of the individual EURAD KM documents is performed by
recognised experts. These experts will share their view on the most relevant
knowledge on a specific topic, highlighting safety functions and operational
aspects. Additionally, signposting to pre-existing documents is performed
(State-of-the-Art Documents, Scientific Papers, etc.). The hierarchy of the
works for the KM documents (Theme Overview, Domain Insight,
State-of-Knowledge, Guidance) is closely linked to the generic EURAD
Roadmap/GBS (Goals Breakdown Structure). It provides a hierarchical structure
that facilitates definition, organisation and communication of topics. All of
this allows knowledge to be captured and presented with the level of detail
that is required by the end-user, from a broad overview down to an increasing
level of detail (pyramid of knowledge). To ensure the quality and consistency
of the documents with the overall EURAD KM approach, quality assurance and
editorial procedures are applied. Collection of end-user feedback will aid the
optimisation and further development of the KM activities. To facilitate the
transfer of knowledge, the EURAD KM programme goes beyond documents and
strives to facilitate exchange between people and signpost to other resources,
such as Training and Mobility activities (also organised by EURAD Work
Package 13 Training & Mobility) or Communities of Practice. All these
activities will contribute to a useful and end-user-friendly EURAD KM
programme that is designed to be operational well beyond the runtime of
EURAD-1. This presentation will provide further insight into the approaches,
status of work and an outlook on future activities that will support member
states with the implementation of their national programmes.
Site selection for the best clay-hosted repository in Switzerland

Published: November 2021

Abstract. The site selection process for the deep geological repositories in Switzerland
is in its final phase. All three remaining sites fulfil the requirements of
the repositories for low level waste (LLW) as well as for high level waste
(HLW) and spent fuel. Using surface-based exploration methods, including 3D
seismic studies and deep bore holes, Nagra has recently collected the
necessary data to select the most suitable site. The sites will be compared based on 13 technical criteria defined in 2008 and
already used in the 2 previous phases of the selection process. The criteria
comprise safety-related aspects including the barrier properties and their
long-term stability as well as the construction suitability of the repository
and its access facilities. If one site offers optimal conditions for both HLW
and LLW and the space requirements can be met at that site, a co-disposal
facility will be proposed. This facility will then comprise separate
emplacement areas with specific safety concepts for the different waste
categories. In our contribution we present the overall approach for the surface-based
exploration in the different stages of the site selection process. We show how
we integrated third party data, seismic surveys, surface mapping as well as
deep and shallow bore holes to drive the site selection process. Example data sets from the ongoing deep drilling campaign (clay content,
hydrotest data, porewater isotope profiles etc.) and recent 3D seismic surveys
are used to illustrate our approach to distinguish the remaining sites
according to long-term safety and to underline the large safety margin of the
selected clay host rock in long-term evolution scenarios.

Objective: To evaluate the hepatoprotective effects of Tecomellaundulata stem bark extract on isoniazid induced hepatic damage based on liver enzymes and Liver function test in rat models. Study design and Setting: An experimental study conducted at Department of Pharmacology at Al-Tibri Medical College and Hospital, Isra University Karachi Campus and Dow University of Health Sciences, Karachi. Methodology: Total twenty-four rats were studied. The albino rats that were male, healthy, and weighing 200-250grams were included in this study. Rats were divided into four groups, each group having six rats and treated once daily orally for 30 days. Group A was control group and treated with normal animal diet and water; Group B was Isoniazid treated group and induced by oral administration of Isoniazid (INH) 50mg/kg. Group C was treated with Isoniazid 50mg/kg and Tecomellaundulata bark extract with low dose of 200mg/kg . Group D was treated with Isoniazid 50mg/kg and Tecomellaundulata bark extract with high dose of 400mg/kg . All the animals were weighed before commencement of the study. Liver enzymes were noted after the end of experiment. P value of <0.05 was taken as significant. Results: While comparing the mean values of AST,ALT, ALP and GGT in all four groups group; the statistical significant difference (p<0.001) was found. The mean levels in of total Bilirubin in group A was 0.69 ±0.01, group B 1.04 ±0.04, in group C was 1.15 ±0.39, and in group D was 1.04 ±0.44 with the significant difference (p=0.004). Conclusion: Tecomellaundulata has a protective effect on isoniazid induced toxicity on liver as evidenced by liver function test on rat models.
Mediación estatal y transformaciones territoriales en torno a un conflicto por la tierra en Abasto, La Plata (Buenos Aires, Argentina)
Authors: Mosca Valeria Ana
Published: November 2021

En este artículo discutimos la relación entre política pública y territorio. Para ello realizamos una propuesta teórico-metodológica que parte de una concepción crítica del territorio como expresión de relaciones de poder y de la política pública como proceso social amplio en el que interactúan actores de la sociedad civil y actores estatales, que en su devenir genera transformaciones territoriales. A través de la utilización de fuentes primarias y secundarias y basado en una metodología cualitativa, en este artículo analizamos un caso en profundidad. Se trata de un conflicto por la tierra en la localidad de Abasto, La Plata (Buenos Aires, Argentina), donde surge la tensión entre diversos actores por la propiedad y uso de un predio. Las conclusiones arrojan reflexiones de orden teórico sobre las modalidades en las cuales el estado internaliza las demandas de la sociedad civil y cómo ello se cristaliza en el territorio. Para nuestro caso de estudio se evidencia como resultado una dinámica de expansión urbana —protagonizada por sectores excluidos— y retroceso del uso productivo del suelo.
