The Faculty of Medicine of the University of Chile has developed a program, where students play an important role colaborating with their teachers in research. Traditionally it has been related to basic and/or clinical research. We present here an innovation: the participation of students in educational research. Medical students from different learning stages participated actively planning and performing this research, and they were indeed crucial for its success. The study shown here, is intended to favour the development of a “Continous Joint Educational Research Program”, which main goal would be to identify eventual teaching problems in order to develop prompt and adecuate solutions to continously improve the quality of medical education. The diagnosis made by the students’ opinions is only the first step of this project. Teachers’ opinions need to be considered also in a second stage. Learning outcome’s evaluation was identified by medical students as being one of the most problematic areas. A great number of them confess “traumatic experiences” in this field, some of which are described here as a mean of making teachers aware of the problem, leading them to seek for teaching and evaluation methodologies capacitation.

Among pulses green gram is most suitable crop for barren land cultivation and is grown all over India. But production and productivity of crop was very low in salt affected soils due to the presence of high levels of salt accumulation in cation exchange complexes. Under these circumstances, application of soil amendments and foliar nutrition is one of the important agricultural practices that can be used in integrated nutrient management approach. To enhance the productivity under sodic soil condition, a field experiment was conducted at Anbil Dharmalingam Agricultural College and Research Institute, Tiruchirappalli during summer 2022 to study the effect of soil amendments and foliar nutrition on growth, physiological parameters, soil enzymes, NPK uptake and yield of green gram. The experiment was laid out in split plot design with three replications. The treatments comprised of different soil amendments in main plots and three foliar spray combinations in sub plots. The results showed that, Gypsum @ 50 % GR + Press mud @ 10 t ha-1+ FS of Brassinosteroid 0.2 ppm @ 30 DAS registered significantly higher of mean values dry matter production (3425 kg ha-1), root nodules plant-1(12.75 at 45 DAS), SPAD value (30.25), leaf area index (3.87), crop growth rate (9.39 g m-2 d-1) at 45-65 DAS. The same combination recorded higher NPK uptake by crop, grain and haulm yield (1110 & 2175 kg ha-1) with lower proline content (1.15µg g-1) over farmers practices (FP). However, Gypsum @ 50 % GR + CSR GROMOR @ 25 kg ha-1 + FS of Brassinosteroid 0.2 ppm @ 30 DAS produced on par yield.

Published: December 2023

Water is a valuable resource that all life on Earth requires to survive. The increasing negative effects of pollution on the natural environment, particularly on water resources, has necessitated an assessment of water resources, particularly surface water such as rivers. As a result, the current study was carried out in the Tuirial River, Aizawl Mizoram, which is one of the most important rivers in Aizawl. Evaluating water quality before any use, such as drinking, domestic, or agricultural, is necessary for the betterment of man, society, and economic growth. Water parameters such as pH, temperature, EC, turbidity, TA, DO, BOD, chloride, and phosphate were measured at five different sampling stations over two years (2020-2021). The outcome reveals that pH and DO were lowest during the monsoon season and highest during the winter. The monsoon season saw the highest levels of water temperature, EC, turbidity, BOD, and phosphates, while total alkalinity and chloride reached their peak levels in the summer. Except for phosphate and turbidity, almost all the analyzed parameters were within the permissible limits set by various agencies. According to the study’s findings, the Tuirial River has deteriorated due to anthropogenic activities such as the dumping of domestic waste and agricultural fertilizers.

Published: December 2023

The study is done to investigate the attitude of the people and to inculcate awareness toward household solid waste. With the boom in the growth of population coupled with urbanization, the solid waste is predicted to increase annually. Here, the Direct sampling method is used and it involves the household survey and the quantification and the composition of the solid waste. Manual hand sorting is applied in the characterization process. The results indicate people having positive attitude towards the solid waste and the solid waste generated in the Jant village is comparatively very less. Most people have little knowledge on solid waste management, 80.67% of the household throw their waste in an open space or on the street. There is meagre information and little work on solid waste for the small villages in India. People participation is considered vital if the solid waste management is to be carried out efficiently in any place. The data thus generated in the study would help the environmental planners in their decision making on managing the solid waste and controlling the environmental pollution for the Jant village.

The need for robust spray dryer scale-up methods is essential to control critical quality attributes in the biopharmaceutical industry. In this second part, various parameters are determined such as the heat capacity of the cream (value of 3.626 kJ/kg.ºC), the enthalpies and mass flowrates of the different streams involved, the Sauter diameter (88.78 μm), the drying total time (6.90 s) and the efficiencies. A mathematical model was also obtained by using MATLABÒ software, in order to determine the main phenomenological characteristics of the evaluated spray drying process. In general, the increase in the cream feeding temperature, the powder temperature, the cream dry mass and the rotation speed of the atomizer decrease the final humidity of the powder, while the air inlet temperature and the absolute air humidity increase it. The temperature of the powder at the exit of the cyclone and the rotation speed of the atomizer disk are the variables that most influence the scale-up of spray drying. The new mathematical model obtained in this work quantitatively describes the spray-drying process of HeberNem-SÒ bionematicide.

Authors: Varela Melody Anette , Landa Blanco Miguel
Published: December 2023

El presente estudio analizó la prevalencia del riesgo suicida y su relación con la comunicación familiar y el apoyo parental en estudiantes de 18 a 21 años matriculados en la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Honduras durante el año 2021. El estudio utilizó un diseño cuantitativo de alcance relacional. La muestra estuvo conformada por 280 estudiantes universitarios. Del total de participantes, 9.99 % ha tenido al menos un intento suicida. Además, 8.92 % reportó haber hecho planes para quitarse la vida y quería morir. El 15 % lo planificó, pero no concretó el intento. Los resultados indican que ninguna de las variables de estudio varía significativamente según el sexo del estudiante. Es decir, que hombres y mujeres reportaron niveles similares de cohesión, expresividad y conflictos familiares, así como de apoyo parental y riesgo suicida. En comparación a quienes viven sin sus padres, los jóvenes que cohabitan con ambos progenitores reportan un menor riesgo suicida y una mayor cohesión familiar. De igual forma, los participantes que viven con ambos padres reportan que estos tienen mayores demandas y expectativas, en comparación a quienes solo viven con su padre. El análisis relacional indica que el riesgo suicida está positivamente relacionado a la presencia de conflictos familiares. A la vez, la responsividad parental, sus demandas y expectativas, la cohesión y expresividad están inversamente relacionados al riesgo suicida, evidenciando su rol como potenciales factores protectores.

Introduction: Although the simulated liver allocation model for liver transplantation has enabled a more equal distribution of surgeries in Brazil, it remains a subject of controversy whether access to the procedure is fair across various regions of the country. To assess this, data from patients who moved to different regions to undergo liver transplants were analyzed. MethodsA retrospective cross-sectional study was carried out on liver transplantation using the Brazilian Unified Health System’s IT department (DATASUS) data from 2018 to 2022, and sorted the procedures/patients by region using Software PAST 4.12 (University of Oslo). Results: 88,78% (n = 198) of patients from the northern region needed to migrate, while in the central-west region, 23.39% (n = 84) of patients needed to migrate to other regions. In three states of the northeast region, 100% (n = 117) of the patients needed to migrate to states within the same region. In Tukey’s pairwise test: Midwest and Southeast p=0.03, North and Southeast p=0.008, Northeast and Southeast p= 0.02. Conclusions: There is a noticeable disparity in access and the need for patient migration from the North, Northeast, and Central-West regions, which may affect the prognosis and result in extra expenses for patients from these regions.

Authors: Lima Alícia Cardoso , Furtado Elane Viana Hortegal , Bragança Maylla Luanna Barbosa Martins
Published: December 2023

Objective: Daily fruit and vegetable consumption is a critical factor in health, especially aging. This study aimed to evaluate the association between socioeconomic factors and daily fruit and vegetable consumption in men and women aged ≥ 50 years. Methods: This cross-sectional study used 2015–2016 data from the Brazilian longitudinal study of aging (ELSI-Brazil), which included 8665 individuals aged ≥ 50 years. Daily fruit and vegetable consumption was the dependent variable, and income, education, sex, age, and race were the independent variables. Associations between fruit and vegetable consumption and the independent variables were determined using Poisson regression. Results: Individuals who had completed higher education (OR 2.40; 95% CI 2.07–2.78), whose income was > 3 times the minimum wage (OR 2.42; 95% CI 2.18–2.68), and those aged > 80 years (OR 1.44; 95% CI 1.27–1.63) were more likely to consume fruits and vegetables. However, men (OR 0.63; 95% CI 0.58–0.67), Blacks (OR 0.74; 95% CI 0.65–0.84), and people of mixed race (OR 0.68; 95% CI 0.63–0.73), were less likely to consume fruits and vegetables. Conclusions: The results show inequality in fruit and vegetable consumption among people aged ≥ 50 years, which was lower among men, people of Black or mixed race, people with low income and education, and those with younger age. Interventions are needed to promote fruit and vegetable consumption, and thus healthy aging, among these groups.

The life story of Vincenzo “Zenz” Mussner sheds light on factors deeply rooted in history that have contributed to the marginalized status of the Ladins of the Dolomites in relation to nationalistic movements. Starting from the premise that the protagonist’s role was characterized by political unreliability, it is demonstrated how he faced insignificance, instrumentalization and alienation. The analysis illustrates how the conditions experienced by Zenz affected not only him but also his fellow countrymen. Zenz’s experiences are then examined against the context of the connection between nationalism and the Ladin population, especially from the mid-nineteenth century onwards. In conclusion it is argued that Zenz’s political marginalization stemmed from poor understanding of the Ladin language and the absence of a clear political position on behalf of the Ladin minority.
Il policy making dell’Euregio Tirolo-Alto Adige-Trentino. La politica europea di sviluppo regionale come opportunità di tutela e di coesione della minoranza linguistica ladina
Authors: Pescosta Werner
Published: December 2023

Starting with a review of the history of the Ladins from the first post-war period onwards and of the current situation faced by the minority, an attempt is made to evaluate possible paths towards protection. These could favor the development and, above all, cohesion among Ladin communities by reaching across provincial and regional borders. This process could be helped by the recent Europeanist “fashion” of placing greater value on the status of minorities in the European Union because they represent an important cultural heritage. Hence several opportunities offered by the new European development and regional cohesion policies are examined, with special reference to the European Grouping of Territorial Cooperation (EGTC) Euregio Tyrol-South Tyrol-Trentino and its legal basis (EU Regulation 1082/2006). This policy-making body is endowed with political power and therefore able to draw up an action program which would include the organizations and institutions of the Ladin minority to a greater extent than before. This would contribute to improve the coordination of the various initiatives and the cohesion among members of the minority.
Cenni intorno alla scripta friulana medievale e notizia dell’Inventarium Bitini

In the case of Friuli, too, documents of practical use represent the source of greatest interest for the study of the ancient vernacular language. Their production increased between the second half of the 14th and the first half of the 15th century. It reflects specific sociolinguistic circumstances that saw opposition between Friulian and Latin being progressively replaced by opposition between Friulian and Tuscan-Venetian. This situation is reflected in the documents of the period. They oscillate between the interference of more or less influential alternative models and a more conscious and socially widespread practice of writing in Friulian, choosing it as the linguistic code in administrative and accounting documents. An example is the fruçon “fragment” which even on a preliminary level shows various elements of interest, not least of all the fact that it exhibits an intermediate language, semi-Latin or semi-vulgar. This can be attributed to the work of mediation of a sophisticated intermediary – the notary editor – who arranged the gramatica in order to make it comprehensible even to those less educated.
Cis et ultra montes – Quellenforschung zur Geschichte des ersten ladinischen Dekanats
Authors: Lezuo Ivan
Published: December 2023

According to the prince­bishop’s court the Ladin valleys, thanks to their peripheral location and linguistic peculiarities, called for founding a separate deanery. The vicar general who resided in Bressanone/Brixen was no longer able to meet the increasing demands. It also turned out to be impossible to keep the corrupt behavior of the clergy and the negligence in terms of pastoral care under control without permanent supervision. Owing to the analysis of written sources, it is possible to put the circumstances eventually leading to the creation of the Ladin deanery in a historical context. The Ladin deanery, initially called Decanatus Livinalislongi or Puechenstain, was ratified by the bishop on 11.02.1597 and confirmed on occasion of the synod in 1603. The deanery included all Ladin valleys except Ampezzo and Moena because the latter belonged to the Patriarchate of Aquileia. The situation remained unchanged until a first reorganization in 1667 when Val Gardena/Gröden was moved to the deanery of Laion/Lajen. The new division was based on practical and logistical considerations, with no evidence of linguistic or ideological reasons. Colfosco/Kolfuschg rejoined the Ladin deanery in 1668 and was made part of the parish of Fodom/Buchenstein, owing to its more fitting location and linguistic affinity. Until 1688 the dean lived in the parish of Fodom/Buchenstein. During the 100 years that followed the dean’s seat took turns between Marebbe/Enneberg and Val di Fassa/Fassatal. The expression Cis et ultra montes seems to have emerged for the very first time during this period but has not yet been discovered in the ecclesiastical documents of the 18th century. The end of the deanery was followed by a phase of transition characterized by recurring changes and adjustments of the deanery’s classification before the deaneries currently existing in the Ladin valleys began to emerge. It remains to be debated whether it makes sense to speak of a dean’s seat rather than a deanery seat. In any case it is a fact that every time the dean changed residence the name of the deanery changed accordingly. Hence the officeholder’s residence always corresponded to the residence of the church district.
Financial Deregulation, Monetary Tightening, Oil Crises and Transnational Capital Flows: The United States and the Origins of Neoliberal Financial Policies
Authors: Selva Simone
Published: December 2023

This article pinpoints the anti inflationary measures and financial deregulation policies passed by the Congress and the White House since early 1980 to establish a linkage between such soaring cost of financing the U.S. economy, a declining competitive edge of U.S. manufacturing during the 1970s, and the deregulation of the financial system by the turn-of-the-decade. It is suggested that such deregulation was an instrument to recast the competitive position of American manufacturing and trading companies. Furthermore, unlike the literature on financialisation of corporate America, this study argues that deregulating the American banking and financial system was not only a way to compensate the shortfall in profits caused by highs in interest rates through the promotion of unregulated financial activities by corporations and other non-banking companies. Rather, the Reagan administration deregulated the financial system to favour the outflow of money from the United States: by unleashing the American banking system the White House promoted an increase in the foreign investments of U.S. banks as an instrument to compensate the decline in banks’ profits caused by rising interest rates and the effect it had in terms of decreasing domestic borrowing by companies and consumers. Such decrease also hit hard the domestic profits of U.S. banks. The Reagan administration-turn to introduce a legislation to deregulate the financial sector was intended to let the American financial system increase their overseas investments in European money markets to restructure its banking profits.At the same time Reagan advanced deregulation policies to restore domestic money stock in combination with a foreign economic policy aimed at favouring capital-seeking strategies for U.S. corporations.

The objective of this work was to evaluate the intake, apparent digestibility, nitrogen balance, ruminal and blood parameters in lambs fed diets containing of crude glycerin. Four castrated lambs of Santa Ines breed with an average weight of 25.0 kg were used. The evaluated diets contained four levels of crude glycerin (0.0, 50.0, 100.0 and 150.0 g kg DM-1). All diets were formulated to meet the nutrient requirements of growing and finishing lambs. The ingredients were: Brachiaria dyctioneura hay as roughage, ground corn grain, soybean meal, urea, mineral salt and crude glycerin. The complete diet provided to the animals was composed of 500 g kg-1 roughage and 500 g kg-1 concentrate on DM basis. A 4 x 4 Latin square experimental design was used. The highest intake (P<0.05) of dry matter (129.08 g kg BW-0.75), neutral detergent fiber (62.91 g kg BW-0.75), acid detergent fiber (41.10 g kg BW-0.75), total carbohydrate (99.92 g kg BW-0.75) and organic matter (116.89 g kg BW-0.75) was achieved with diets varying from 39.2 to 44.7 g kg DM-1 crude glycerin. Crude protein (17.84 g kg BW-0.75) and ether extract (2,70 g kg BW-0.75) intake was higher (P<0.05) with diets containing 39.0 and 77.1 g kg DM-1 of crude glycerin, respectively. Consumed and absorbed N displayed a quadratic effect, whereas retained N displayed a linear decreasing effect in function of crude glycerin levels. Ruminal concentrations of acetate, propionate, and butyrate, and blood glucose was influenced (P<0.05) by the postprandial hour vs. experimental diet interaction. Glycerin levels in the diet did not influence (P>0.05) the apparent digestibility and ruminal N-NH3, pH, ciliate protozoa and blood urea. Therefore, diets containing crude glycerin influenced dry matter intake, with the highest value being around 40 g kg DM-1. Likewise, diets containing crude glycerin influenced the N consumed and absorbed with maximum crude glycerin points of 36.9 and 28.4 g kg DM-1.

No presente trabalho, com silagem de milho, girassol e suas misturas, objetivou-se propor um modelo não linear bicompartimental e identificar entre o modelo proposto e Logístico Bicompartimental (LB), aquele que apresenta maior qualidade de ajuste à curva de cinética de produção cumulativa de gases (PCG). A leitura da produção de gás foi realizada nos tempos 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 19, 24, 30, 36, 48, 72 e 96 horas, após o início do processo de fermentação in vitro. Os dados gerados foram utilizados para geração dos parâmetros de cada modelo testado com auxílio do pacote stats da ferramenta computacional R versão 4.0.4. Os modelos matemáticos foram submetidos aos seguintes critérios de seleção o coeficiente de determinação ajustado (Raj. ), quadrado médio do resíduo (QMR), desvio médio absoluto (DMA) e o critério de informação de Akaike (AIC). Foi demonstrado que o modelo proposto teve melhor desempenho com altos Raj., e menores valores de QMR, AIC e DMA, por apresentar um ajustamento superior no conjunto dos critérios em comparação com o modelo logístico bicompartimental para a predição dos parâmetros de produção cumulativa de gases (PCG) de acordo com a metodologia e condições em que foi desenvolvido o presente estudo.
