Vivos Voco. Post-war Correspondence between Sergey Hessen and Ivan Lapshin: Year 1946
Authors: Dmitrieva Nina A.
Published: June 2024

The letters of S. I. Hessen and I. I. Lapshin, two Russian Neo-Kantian philosophers, were written in the early post-war years. These letters bear witness to the later period in the life and work of their authors, a period of hardship, tragic losses and hopes. Both philosophers were deeply embedded in the intellectual landscape of Russian emigration. They were also known and valued by their peers in the countries that gave them refuge, Poland and Czechoslovakia, where they not only published their works, but also taught young scholars. Hessen, being considerably younger than Lapshin, continued teaching and actively publishing after the war, including outside Poland. Lapshin in Czechoslovakia was less in demand, but continued preparing his works for publication. The reflections of the two authors shed light on the idea content of their later works, which is particularly valuable in reconstructing the conception of the texts which were not completed at the time of their death and have survived only in the shape of plans and rough notes. It is also interesting that in their letters Hessen and especially Lapshin expound the Kantian element of their philosophical views as well as sharing their impressions of the development of philosophy in the middle of the twentieth century.

Published: June 2024

Heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a clinical syndrome in which the structure and the function of the heart are damaged, with stiffness of the heart muscle, increased pressures in diastole and in the pulmonary circulation. The latest understanding of HFpEF is that it is a systemic disease of the microcirculation with chronic inflammation and impaired cellular metabolism. The aim of this review was to determine the association between physical activity and HFpEF based on the available research. By summarizing the literature data, it was shown that a sedentary lifestyle represents a risk factor for HFpEF and that continuous physical activity prevents the occurrence of HFpEF, while in patients already suffering from HFpEF it increases functional capacity, as well as the quality of life, mainly due to the improvement of peripheral muscles oxidative metabolism. The impact of physical activity on improving the diastolic function of the heart in people with heart failure is still under research. Patients with HFpEF usually have poor exercise tolerance, thus an individualized prescription of physical activity is indicated in accordance with their capabilities, preferably a combination of aerobic training, strength exercises, balance and an adequate diet. The gold standard for the assessment of aerobic capacity is the cardiopulmonary exercise test, which allows the measurement of oxygen consumption, maximum heart rate, the first and the second anaerobic thresholds, parameters needed for dosing the intensity of physical exercise.

Effect of Cultivation at Different Altitudes on the Chemical, Functional and Pasting Properties of Starch Medians Cultivar Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.)
Authors: Rohima Ira Endah , Djali Mohamad , Cahyana Yana , Hamdani Jajang Sauman , Lani Mohd Nizam
Published: June 2024

The cultivation elevation of potatoes plays a crucial role that influences starch quality. Little is known on the impact of varying altitudes on starch quality. Therefore, this new study analyzed the starch attributes of the Median?s potato variety (Solanum tuberosum L.) cultivated at three distinct altitudinal zones: lowlands, midlands, and highlands. The objective was to elucidate the impact of these varying altitudes on the chemical composition, functional qualities and pasting behavior of starch derived from the Median?s cultivar. Utilizing a randomized block design with quadruplicate trials, the data was subjected to one-way ANOVA and Duncan?s Multiple Range Test, at a 5% significance threshold. The results show that highland and midland plantings yielded a higher starch production. The cultivation altitude had a significant influence (p < 0.05) on several chemical parameters of the starch, including its moisture, protein, lipid content, total starch, amylose, ash and phosphorus contents. The functional properties, such as swelling volume, solubility, water and oil absorption capacities, syneresis, gel strength, and colors (a*, b*, L* values) also exhibited significant variance with altitude. Furthermore, pasting qualities also were altered by the altitude of potatoes cultivation. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), particle size analysis, granule morphology via microscopy and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), revealed significant differences (p < 0.05) across starches from different altitudes, confirming the influence of environmental conditions on starch quality and its functional properties. These results provide valuable recommendations for customizing potato farming methods to enhance starch yield and their applications in various food production sectors..

Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) is an earliest oilseed crop originating from India, widely cultivated across different climates worldwide known as the ?Queen of the Oilseeds?. Seeds are the economically significant part of the crop and it contains high oil and protein concentrations, making it highly valued for its nutritional content and delightful flavour. Sesame cultivation faces challenges particularly concerning biotic agents with diseases caused by Macrophomina phaseolina being a major threat. Moreover, this pathogen's seed-borne nature possesses a direct threat to human health when infected seeds are consumed. Twelve M. phaseolina isolates from different genotypes/cultivars showed distinct cultural, morphological and molecular variability. The RAPD study using 40 primers revealed cent per cent polymorphism with OPA 2, OPE 1 and OPE 3, while OPA 3 and OPA 18 exhibited the lowest polymorphism (85.71% and 83.33%). Most isolates belonged to cluster B, indicating genetic similarity, while cluster A included only four isolates. Molecular variability amongst the isolates of M. phaseolina infecting sesame seeds were analyzed using molecular marker RAPD..

So it has happened: Marine Le Pen’s Rassemblement National (RN) received more than twice the votes of Macron’s Renaissance list in the European elections (31.4% vs. 14.6%). Following the results, Macron announced to dissolve parliament and call an early election. Judging by the immediate reactions on social media, Macron’s announcement shocked several commentators and the public. Yet, from the perspective of the 2027 presidential elections, the reasoning may not be as reckless as it seems. Macron’s calculation is based on the consideration that three more years of the current situation would make a Le Pen presidency highly likely in 2027.

Authors: Bayraktar Dilek , Narin Selnur , Özyalçın Mehmet Halit
Published: June 2024

Objective: One of the reasons for foot pain is the changes in the structure of the medial longitudinal arch. Assessment of medial longitudinal arch height is often made with foot radiographs and pedobarographic measurements. The relationship between these methods in the presence of foot sole pain has not been examined yet. This study aims to investigate the relationship among these measurement methods in adults with foot sole pain.

Materials and Methods: 60 adults with foot sole pain were included in this study. The talohorizontal, talocalcaneal, talo1.metatarsal, and calcaneal inclination angles were measured in the lateral weight bearing foot radiographs. The arch index was calculated in static, dynamic pedobarographic measurements. The agreement of radiological and pedographic measurements among themselves and with each other was determined.

Results: The mean age of 60 participants was 45.32 ±13.64. Agreement among foot classifications of radiologic measurements was poor Gwet’s agreement coefficient =-0.198 with a 95% confidence interval (-0.315,-0.080); percent agreement = 0.167 with a 95% confidence interval (0.099,0.234) and Kappa =-0.047 with a 95% confidence interval (-0.083,-0.01) were found. The agreement between pedobarographic classifications was fair Gwet’s agreement coefficient =0.486 with a 95% confidence interval (0.355,0.617); percent agreement =0.65 with 95% confidence interval (0.563,0.737) and Kappa=0.453 with a 95% confidence interval (0.324,0.583) were found. Among radiological measurements, the calcaneal inclination angle showed the highest coefficients of agreement with pedobarographic measurements. The extent of its agreement was fair.

Conclusion: Pedobarography is a simple, reliable, inexpensive, and noninvasive method. The calcaneal inclination angle which is used in radiological imaging can give an idea about the height of the medial longitudinal arch.

Transmisión del fútbol en vivo como contenido de interés social. Comparación de la exhibición audiovisual en Alemania y Argentina
Authors: Lemos da Costa Ana Beatriz , Gomes dos Santos Anderson David
Published: June 2024

El fútbol es un elemento sociocultural relevante para diferentes países, lo que justifica que se haya estructurado como una industria movilizadora de otras diversas, entre las cuales se encuentra la infocomunicacional. A pesar del creciente interés para la transmisión en vivo de varios partidos, se trabaja aquí con la perspectiva de que algunos eventos deportivos –en cuanto contenido audiovisual– deben ser considerados como objeto de interés social, por consiguiente, con acceso gratuito del público. A partir de ese contexto, este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar cómo Argentina y Alemania regulan la exhibición audiovisual en vivo de partidos de fútbol. Para ello, hemos realizado una investigación deductiva y cualitativa, con recopilación de datos a partir de una investigación documental en las leyes vigentes sobre el tema en los dos países, para establecer no sólo una descripción, sino también una comparación de un país europeo con otro sudamericano. Se refuerza con los dos casos la importancia de contar con leyes que regulen las transmisiones en vivo de partidos de fútbol. Por ser un contenido relevante para la sociedad, es importante garantizar el acceso al público por medio de restricciones a la mercantilización de su exhibición.Identificador permanente (ARK): http://id.caicyt.gov.ar/ark:/s18535925/vlh1czw3z
La fotografía deportiva de lo analógico a lo digital. Una reflexión semiológica
Authors: Di Buono Fabrizio , Fedele Valentina
Published: June 2024

A través de la reflexión sobre las fotografías deportivas, este ensayo pone su atención en la relación entre el significante fotográfico, los significados que con el tiempo se le han atribuido y el objeto (inmediato y dinámico). Examina la articulación específica entre el fotógrafo, el cuerpo deportivo, la identidad retratada y las narrativas sobre el deporte. A través de las técnicas de reproducción y reapropiación, las narrativas se pluralizan en el espacio mediático digital, donde la apreciación del contenido mediático crece de manera exponencial como una forma de apropiación y alteración que impacta tanto en la dimensión material como en la inmaterial de la fotografía. Este proceso indicial conduce hacia una amplificación del valor simbólico más que del valor artístico de la imagen misma, determinando un nuevo papel de la estética en el espacio mediático. De hecho, la yuxtaposición y superposición de las diversas relaciones de significado alrededor de la fotografía deportiva, como la iconicidad, la indicialidad y lo simbólico, sugieren investigar la transformación de la fotografía deportiva desde diferentes perspectivas que permiten la emergencia de elementos y narrativas ocultas en la relación entre operator (fotógrafo) y spectrum (sujeto fotografiado) haciendo emerger el rol activo y casi protagónico del spectator en su versión de productor y consumidor (prosumer). Abordaremos este proceso a través de tres casos de estudio: las fotografías deportivas que retratan a Carlo Parola, Florence Griffith-Joyner y Diego Armando Maradona y que han sido, en el tiempo, resignificadas.Identificador permanente (ARK):  http://id.caicyt.gov.ar/ark:/s18535925/3qas9atib

Effective curriculum implementation enhances lifelong learning and is cemented by a holistic education practice. However, previous studies indicated the prevalence of an examination-focused approach to education delivery among secondary schools in Mbeya City, Tanzania. As such, the present study aimed to examine the current status, strategies, and consequences of secondary schools’ focus on national examinations. The study used a qualitative research design, purposively sampling twenty-four (24) well-informed respondents from four (4) secondary schools in Mbeya City. The findings revealed that secondary schools are still emphasising success in national examinations, adopting strategies that include conducting extra-class sessions, administering weekly and monthly tests, and establishing temporal dormitories. Consequently, these strategies deprive students of holistic learning and fail to align with secondary education objectives. The study recommends that regulators and secondary schools should consider adherence to curriculum objectives and the inclusion of extracurriculars as critical milestones for successful learning.

Payment for Ecosystem Services promotes watershed management through Payment for Watershed Services. It encourages improved land management practices in upstream areas to enhance the quantity and quality of water downstream. The Nou Forest Reserve in Babati district covers Lake Manyara's headwaters. Its rivers are the primary water source for the area's inhabitants. However, there have been reports of declining water quality and quantity, presenting an opportunity to introduce payment for watershed services for Nou Forest Reserve conservation and management. The present study was conducted to assess the level of awareness among downstream water users about the importance of watersheds in providing sustainable water supply. Using the Contingent Valuation Method, the study estimated the communities’ willingness to pay for improved watershed services, analysed factors influencing capacity to pay, and examined possible operational modes for implementing payment mechanisms. A total of 155 domestic water users and 50 non-domestic water users were interviewed. It was found that 71% of domestic water users and 82% of non-domestic water users were willing to pay for improved watershed services, with a mean willingness to pay estimated at TAS 1261 per user/year for domestic water users and TAS 112322 per user/year for non-domestic water users. Factors such as gender, occupation, education, and farm size significantly (P<0.05) influenced water users' willingness to pay. Income was a significant factor in the willingness to pay for non-domestic water users, but it was not significant for domestic water users. The current study suggests that downstream water users in Babati district, who act as watershed service buyers, could collect a water user fee based on estimated amounts. This approach would help address declining water quality and quantity through improved watershed management and thus enhance watershed conservation and management.

Authors: Calderón Marenco Olga Margine
Published: June 2024

La investigación aborda la protección jurídica del derecho a la libertad de expresión en la historia constitucional nicaragüense desde el siglo XIX hasta nuestros días, haciendo un estudio pormenorizado en las constituciones políticas que Nicaragua ha tenido como República. Es importante señalar que la inestabilidad reinante en todos los procesos jurídicos, políticos e institucionales son los puntos de coincidencia encontrados en este análisis constitucional, además del tratamiento constitucional sistemático y uniforme otorgado a este derecho. El estudio de las diferentes fundamentaciones teóricas de la libertad de expresión se centra en los límites constitucionales que el ordenamiento jurídico nicaragüense establece a este derecho fundamental.

Se parte de la premisa de que la igualdad entre las partes es un principio esencial del procedimiento penal que busca garantizar un juicio justo y equitativo para todas las partes involucradas. Por lo tanto, se analiza cómo se cumple este principio en la práctica, tomando como ejemplo los distritos judiciales VII y XII del estado de Jalisco en México. Con ese fin, se lleva a cabo un estudio con enfoque cualitativo, mediante la revisión de la legislación mexicana en materia penal y se analiza la participación de litigantes y ministerios públicos del área de estudio, que evidencian la falta de igualdad entre las partes en la fase de investigación inicial. Se concluye que, a pesar de que el sistema penal acusatorio mexicano tiene como uno de sus principios fundamentales la igualdad entre las partes, en la práctica existen desigualdades en la etapa de investigación inicial, donde la defensa tiene limitaciones en el acceso a la información y recursos, lo que genera una asimetría en el proceso penal. Finalmente, con el presente estudio, se propone como una las posibles soluciones al problema, para lograr la igualdad entre las partes en la etapa de investigación inicial, una reforma a los artículos 218 y 219 del Código Nacional de Procedimientos Penales, en que se establezca con claridad los alcances de los derechos y obligaciones de la defensa en esta etapa y así, garantizar su acceso a la información y recursos necesarios para una defensa efectiva.

In Ecuador, banana cultivation is a fundamental pillar in both the agricultural and economic spheres, being one of the most exported products over time and generating employment opportunities for Ecuadorian families. In the province of El Oro the banana industry has contributed tho the country’s economy; however, there have been problems related to the cultivation processes due to the exessive use of chemical products and inadequate agricultural practices that contribute to soil erosión and the loss of the microflora and microfauna that are an essential part of the processes of mineralisation of organic matter. The research was evaluated the phenological phases of the banana cultivar Williams, using organic and chemical fertilizer. The experimental desing was completely randomised with three treatments and ten replications: T1(Complete fertilizer 40 g/plant); T2(Biochar 25 g/plant + Efficient Microorganism 4 ml + Purified water 1143 ml); T3(Complete fertilizer 40 g/plant encapsulated with Biochar with a ratio of (1:10) + Efficient Microorganism 4 ml + Purified water 1143 ml). The parameters evaluated were: plant height, total number of leaves up to the presence of the Fn leaf, leaf emisión, stem and chlorophyll levels. The results obtained showed that the application of T2(Biochar 25 g/plant + Efficient Microorganism 4 ml + Purified water 1143 ml), had a significant impact on the phenological phases, consolidating itself as the most effective treatment in banana cultivation.

For years now, within the traffic system, there has been a considerable rate of traffic accidents within our country, which have resulted in injuries and even death, and a large percentage of these have been due to being in a state of intoxication. as demonstrated by the file of Traffic accidents of the last months corresponding to this year, where driving under the influence of alcohol, narcotic or psychotropic substances and/or medications, is one of the most common causes of Traffic accidents. Thus, this article presents a proposal for reform to the aforementioned article where one of the aggravating factors in addition to those already described is that of someone who causes an accident under the influence of alcohol, for which, we will focus on proven results, reliable investigations, surveys and others, to corroborate the need that causing an accident while intoxicated does not go unpunished and that both the victims and the owners and drivers of the affected vehicles are fully repaired, and thus be able to put an end to the problems that have been currently occurring within the Judicial system and within society as such, resolving the gaps that have been discovered through both judicial practice and all the authorities that make up the procedure to be followed in Traffic Crimes.
