Komunikowanie religijne o ekologii. Cancel culture a Kościół rzymskokatolicki – wybrane refleksje
Authors: Pastwa Rafał Jakub
Published: June 2023

Głównym celem artykułu jest analiza problematyki ekologii w komunikowaniu religijnym w kontekście przejawów cancel culture w odniesieniu do Kościoła rzymskokatolickiego. Podstawowym przedmiotem niniejszych rozważań uczyniono encyklikę Laudato si’ papieża Franciszka, a także literaturę poświęconą cancel culture, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem intuicji Jo-Rene Formicoli. W związku z analizą komunikowania religijnego o ekologii sięgnięto do badań, które ukazują, w jakim stopniu encyklika społeczna papieża Franciszka, zwana zieloną lub ekologiczną, stanowiła istotny temat dyskusji na łamach najpopularniejszych katolickich tygodników opinii w Polsce. Analizując problematykę komunikowania religijnego o ekologii na podstawie Laudato si’, zaproponowano kierunki rozwoju „ekologii ludzkiej życia codziennego”, uwzględniające odniesienie do przeciwdziałania przemocy wobec ludzi i zwierząt.

Published: June 2023

In this study, field experiment was conducted to assess the effect of different organic fertilizer and mineral fertilizer on mineral and different organic fertilizer treatments effect on available N, P, K contents, the yield of potato (Solanum tubevosum L.), cultivar Astana, nitrate contents of tuber under dark chestnut soil conditions in southeast of Kazakhstan during the spring and summer of 2022. The experiment was carried out in the field and laid out as complete randomized block design with four replicates. Thirteen treatments that are, control without fertilizer treatment, mineral fertilizer with recommended dose (N150P90K120) and eleven different organic fertilizers treatment were used. The results showed that available nutrient (N, P and K) contents of the post-harvest soil were affected by mineral and different organic fertilizers compared to the control. And, the available N, P and K contents in the soils taken from the biohumus (10 t ha-1) and cattle manure (40 t ha-1) treated plots were found to be higher than all of the other treatments and control. Similarly, plots treated recommended mineral fertilizer and different organic fertilizers had a significantly higher yield of potato tuber compared with control. When all applications were compared with each other, it was determined that the treatments that increased the potato yield the highest was the treatment of Biohumus (10 t ha-1) + BioZZ (5 L ha-1, 3 times). The highest nitrate content of tubers was obtained in mineral fertilizer with recommended dose (N150P90K120). Hence, these results suggest that organic production of potato (Biohumus, 10 t ha-1 + BioZZ 5 L ha-1, 3 times) could be an alternative to conventional production in Kazakhstan without reduction in yield, and with low nitrate content of tuber and high available nutrient contents in soil.

Published: June 2023

Background: The diabetic foot is a chronic complication of diabetes. There is a strong relationship between glucose levels, the severity of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), and the need for amputation. This study aimed to evaluate the blood sugar (BS) trends before and after surgery in patients with DFU who had been amputated.
Methods: The adult patients who had undergone DFU-related amputation surgery between 2017 and 2020 in Imam Khomeini Hospital Complex, Tehran, Iran, were evaluated. The cases whose BS levels were charted at least three days before and after amputation were recruited. The main data, including hypoglycemia (defined as a blood glucose level < 70 mg/dl) and mean BS and fasting BS (FBS) levels, were recorded. The data were then analyzed and compared before and after amputation.
Results: Of 267 patients reviewed for inclusion criteria, 55 patients were included in the study. Twenty-eight patients (50.9%) were men, and the mean age was 60 years. The mean FBS before and after amputation was 229.5 and 181.3 mg/dl, respectively, and the mean BS before and after amputation was 227.3 and 197.8 mg/dl, respectively. The differences were significant (P < 0.001). Twelve patients (21.8%) before and 21 patients (36.4%) after amputation suffered from hypoglycemia (P = 0.057).
Conclusion: DFU-related amputation is associated with a significant decrease in blood glucose levels and inflammatory indexes. However, it can increase the risk of hypoglycemia during the first three days after the surgery.

Authors: Savajiyani Dixit , Chauhan Nishant , Ramavat Shailesh
Published: June 2023

Background: Forearm shaft fractures are common in developing countries. Anatomical reduction of these fractures using plates and screws is considered an accepted treatment mode. Like other shaft fractures, this can be treated with intramedullary nails like square nails, Rush nails, and interlocking nails. This study evaluates radiological and functional treatment results using square nailing.
Methods: A prospective study was conducted on 100 adult patients with diaphyseal forearm fractures over 3 years. Out of 100 patients, 68 were men, and 32 were women. Patients were followed up at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks, and then every 3 months till 1 to 1.5 years. We have used criteria described by Anderson et al. and the shortened version of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (QuickDASH) score for functional evaluation of the patients.
Results: Out of 100 patients, the union was achieved in 88 patients, while the rest 12 patients required re-surgery. 4 patients had delayed union, 4 patients developed an infection at the ulnar entry site, and 3 patients developed bursitis of olecranon bursa.
Conclusion: Intramedullary nailing of both bone forearm shaft fractures using square nails can give satisfactory results in most cases, comparable with treatment by plates and screws, and provides an alternative, cost-effective treatment of both bone forearm shafts fractures with good cosmesis owing to small incisions.

Authors: Talebi Shahin , Sheibani Shirin , Hassani Pedram , Dehghan Mojtaba
Published: June 2023

Background: The talus bone is the second-largest bone in the tarsal region. Talar fractures are rare injuries that occur due to highenergy traumas. Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) is the treatment of choice in the talar body fracture-dislocation. Avascular necrosis (AVN), osteoarthritis (OA), malunion, non-union, skin infections, and ankylosis of the subtalar joint are complications that can happen following the talar body fracture.
Case Report: We reported a rare open fracture-dislocation of the talar body concomitant with the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) rupture in a 24-year-old motorcyclist man. ORIF with two 4.5 mm cancellous screws and ATFL repair were performed. After 6 months of follow-up, the radiographic bone union was achieved, and the patient had no complaints of pain, disability, and discomfort.
Conclusion: According to the blood supply of the talus bone, appropriate management and follow-up should be considered to prevent severe consequences. Due to the lack of literature on this lesion, in this report, we tried to provide more comprehensive information regarding the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of this group of patients. To the best of our knowledge, our case will probably be the second case of the talar body fracture concomitant with rupture of the ATFL.
A Case Report of a Rare Variation of the Medial Cutaneous Nerve of Forearm
Authors: Shahedi Abbas
Published: June 2023

Introduction: The brachial plexus is the largest and most complex nerve network in the body, which is formed in the neck and enters the axillary cavity after passing under the clavicle. So far, many variations have been reported in the brachial network, which are clinically important. The plexus has three cords, one of which is the medial cord. The medial cutaneous nerve of the arm and the medial cutaneous nerve of the forearm are the branches of the medial cord that innervate the skin of the medial surface of the arm and forearm, respectively. In this study, a rare variation was observed in the branches of the medial cord of the brachial plexus during the dissection of the upper limb of an approximately 80-year-old man in the Dissection Hall of Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences, Yazd, Iran. Thus, in normal condition, there is no connection between the medial cutaneous nerve of the arm and the medial cutaneous nerve of the forearm, and each of them innervates the skin of the medial arm and forearm separately, but in this case, these two nerves are connected. And since knowing this type of variation is very important for surgeons, more studies are needed to determine its prevalence in the population.

Authors: Behrooz Nazanin , Mesripour Azadeh
Published: June 2023

Introduction: The weight-loss drugs can induce depression. Orlistat is one of the common weight-loss drugs, but preclinical studies about its effect on mood have not been performed. The aim of this study was evaluating the effect of orlistat alone and following inducing stress on mice depressive behavior.
Methods: In this fundamental-applied study, male white mice (27±2 g), in six groups having 7 animals were used. Orlistat was administered orally and imipramine (positive control) was injected intraperitonealy daily, depression was induced by the water avoidance stress (WAS) model during 14 days. The activity was evaluated by the Locomotor Activity Test, depression was assessed by measuring the immobility time during the forced swimming test (FST), food consumption in novelty suppressed feeding test (NSFT), and the sucrose preference test.
Results: Orlistat (25 mg/kg) did not change the locomotor activity. Stress increased the duration of immobility in the forced swimming test compared to the stress control group (98±2.2 seconds, P<0.001). The difference in immobility time between orlistat group and the control group was insignificant, the difference in immobility time between orlistat-WAS group and WAS alone group was also insignificant (P>0.05). The difference in the results of latency and food consumption during novelty suppressed feeding test in orlistat group compared to the control group and between orlistat-WAS group compared with the WAS alone group were insignificant. In orlistat-WAS group the sucrose preference increased (69/8 %). Imipramine reduced depressive behavior in mice.
Conclusion: Orlistat administration did not induce depressive behavior in animals and it did not augment depression when administered during WAS. Evaluating the effect of chronic orlistat administration on depressive behavior is suggested.

Published: June 2023

Introduction: Medical consultation plays an important role in the diagnosis and planning of dental treatment ‎and is recommended for the patients with unclear medical histories and underlying diseases.
Methods: In this descriptive-cross-sectional study, 146 consultation letters of patients referred to Shahid Sadoughi Faculty of Dentistry, Yazd, Iran who were selected by easy sampling method, were investigated. In this study, SPSS version 16 statistical software was used to check the obtained data. Percentage, frequency, mean, variance and frequency distribution were used to describe the data, and X^2 (chi-square) and ANOVA tests were used for analysis.
Results: The mean age of the participants in the study was 44.71 ‎‎± 15.70 with a range of age changes from 13 to 80 year. Fifty-six patients aged 20-40 years (38.4%) and 58 patient aged 60-40 years (39.7%) had the largest number. Out of 146 patients who received medical consultation, 54 were men (37%) and 92 (63%) were women. The main reasons for consulting were to evaluate the cardiovascular condition of patients (26%), neurological diseases (19.2%) and hypertension (17.1%). Moreover, the main consideration of the responding doctors was to continue the treatment process with the usual protocol (71.2%). Considering the considerable percentage of recommendations to change the usual dental protocol in patients, medical consultation seems necessary.
Conclusion: Considering the considerable percentage of recommendations to change the usual dental protocol in the patients, it seems that it is necessary to carry out medical consultation. As a result, the role of oral and maxillofacial disease specialist in controlling the patients with systemic problems becomes important and it is necessary to establish effective communication between doctors and dentists for better patient care.

Authors: Mohamed Nadour , Lakhmissi Cherroun , Nadji Hadroug
Published: June 2023

The electrocardiogram (ECG) is an essential tool in the field of cardiology, as it enables the electrical activity of the heart to be measured. It involves placing electrodes on the patient's skin, facilitating the measurement and analysis of cardiac rhythms. This non-invasive and painless test provides essential information about the heart's function and helps in diagnosing various cardiac conditions. The classification of ECG signals using deep learning techniques has garnered substantial interest in recent years; ECG classification tasks have exhibited promising outcomes with the application of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The GoogleNet, AlexNet, and ResNet Deep-CNN models are proposed in this study as reliable methods for accurately diagnosing and classifying cardiac diseases using ECG data. The primary objective of these models is to predict and classify prevalent cardiac ailments, encompassing arrhythmia (ARR), congestive heart failure (CHF), and normal sinus rhythm (NSR). To achieve this classification, 2D Scalogram images obtained through the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) are utilized as input for the models. The study's findings demonstrate that the GoogleNet, AlexNet and Resnet models achieve an impressive accuracy rate of 96%, 95,33% and 92,66%, in accurately predicting and classifying ECG signals associated with these cardiac conditions, respectively. Overall, the integration of deep learning techniques, such as the GoogleNet, AlexNet, and ResNet models, in ECG analysis holds promise for enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of diagnosing and classifying cardiac diseases, potentially leading to improved patient care and outcomes.

Elma endüstrisinde ürün yükü yönetimine olan ilgi giderek artmaktadır. Nitekim ürün yükü yönetimi özellikle periyodisiteyi hafifletmek ve meyve kalitesini arttırmak açısından oldukça önemlidir. Bununla birlikte ağaç beslenmesi de ürün yükü yönetiminden etkilenmektedir. Bu ön çalışmada (i) ürün yükü ve yaprak besin elementleri arasındaki ilişkiyi ortaya çıkartmak, (ii) dormant dönemde alınan budama artıklarının (odun doku) besin elementi içeriklerini belirlemek ve böylelikle ürün yükünün odun dokusunda depolanan besin elementleri üzerine olan etkisini saptamak ve (iii) yaprak ile odun doku örneklerinin besin elementi içerikleri arasında bir ilişkinin olup olmadığını saptamak amaçlanmıştır. Deneme 2021 yılında Göller Yöresinde (Bayındır Köyü/Yeşilova/Burdur) bulunan Royal Gala/M.9 ağaçlarından oluşan sık dikim bir elma bahçesinde yürütülmüştür. Farklı ürün yüklerini temsil eden toplamda 18 ağaç belirlenerek etiketlenmiş, yaprak analizi, verim ve odun doku analiz örnekleri/verileri aynı ağaçlardan toplanmıştır. Çalışmada ürün yükü arttıkça yaprak-potasyum içeriğinin önemli derecede azaldığı, buna karşın yaprak-kalsiyum ve yaprak-manganez içeriklerinin arttığı belirlenmiştir. Yaprak ve odun dokularında bulunan kalsiyumun pozitif bir korelasyon (0,5418) gösterdiği saptanmıştır.

Published: June 2023

El chile xcat´ik (Capsicum annuum L.), originario de la península de Yucatán tiene propiedades organolépticas únicas. Pero, la calidad nutracéutica ha sido poco explorada y solamente escasos estudios han buscado mejorar el rendimiento productivo de la planta. La especie Capsicum es considerada un alimento importante debido al contenido de compuestos bioactivos, que promueven efectos beneficiosos a la salud. El uso de inoculantes microbianos son una alternativa para incrementar su rendimiento, mejorar la calidad de los frutos y disminuir el uso de los fertilizantes químicos. En este trabajo se evaluó el efecto de un consorcio microbiano, así como de Bacillus subtilis y Trichoderma harzanium sobre los contenidos de ácido ascórbico, fenoles totales, flavonoides, clorofilas, carotenoides, capacidad antioxidante y capsaicinoides, en el fruto del chile xcat´ik. Los resultados fueron comparados con un control sin inocular. Las inoculaciones con T. harzanium y con B. subtilis incrementaron el contenido de carotenoides, así como la actividad antioxidante por ABTS+, mientras el consorcio microbiano incrementó la actividad antioxidante por DPPH•. De acuerdo a nuestros resultados, los inoculantes evaluados podrían sustituir a los fertilizantes químicos, debido a que igualan o mejoran la calidad nutracéutica del fruto del chile x´catik, con la ventaja de un menor daño al medio ambiente.

Many reports state that different structures of M. grandiflora contain bioactive components. Nonetheless, phytochemical studies reported that the extracted essential oils are chemically different and remarkably variable in their qualitative and quantitative compositions. Further studies Mexican M. grandiflora needs to be done. Thus, the research aimed to characterize a) the chemical composition, b) the antioxidant activity and c) cytotoxicity effect of two M. grandiflora flower extracts. The chemical composition was evaluated by preliminary phytochemical test followed by thin layer chromatography, UV-Vis and FTIR spectrophotometer analysis. The antioxidant activity of the flower extracts was measured by the free radical-scavenging activity (ABTS) and the stable radical of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) method and the cytotoxicity by an Artemia salina bioassay. Water and ethyl flower extracts showed the presence of organic chromophores such as flavonoids. Both extracts (ethyl and water) demonstrated antioxidant activity by both ABTS (459.6±8.5 µmol TE g-1 and 274.2±5.7 µmol TE g-1 respectively) and DPPH (3210.4 ± 2.5 µmol TE g-1  and 219.7 ± 0.9 µmol TE g-1  respectively) methologies; and non-cytotoxic activity (LC50 , µg mL-1) (1,285 ± 14  and 1,116 ± 15 respectively). The water and ethyl extracts of M. grandiflora flowers found in southeast Mexico are a promissory source of chemical compounds with attributed biological activity according to the presented results.

Algunas especies del género Trichoderma poseen la capacidad de parasitar patógenos fúngicos de plantas. Esto las hace interesantes en el control de enfermedades (antracnosis) causadas por hongos en el fruto de aguacate poscosecha. Por lo tanto, el objetivo de esta investigación fue el aislamiento e identificación de cepas nativas de Trichoderma spp. de cultivos de aguacate con potencial antagonista in vivo e in vitro contra patógenos de este fruto. Las cepas fueron aisladas de raíz y suelo del huerto de aguacate en la localidad de Tanaxuri, Michoacán. Se obtuvieron seis cepas y se caracterizaron como TSONM1 (Trichoderma spp.), TRONM2 (Trichoderma spp.), TSONM3 (Trichoderma spp.), TSONM4 (Trichoderma spp.), TSONM5 (Trichoderma spp.) y TSONM6 (Trichoderma harzianum). Posteriormente, las cepas aisladas fueron confrontadas con Neofusicoccum parvum, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Diaporthe sp. y Phomopsis perseae observándose inhibiciones in vitro mayores al 80 %. Mientras que en la evaluación in vivo, la cepa TSONM6 (Trichoderma harzianum) presentó mayor actividad antagónica contra  C. gloeosporioides, Diaporthe sp. y  P. persea. Adicionalmente, los frutos de aguacate tratados con TSONM6, presentaron mínimos porcentajes (< 2 %) de pudrición de la pulpa y pedúnculo. Por lo tanto, Thichoderma harzianun podría ser una buena alternativa para el control biológico del aguacate en poscosecha.

La producción intensiva de vegetales ha provocado dependencia excesiva de la fertilización química, lo cual ha generado problemas ambientales y de inocuidad de los alimentos. Una opción para reducir la cantidad de fertilizantes sintéticos es el manejo de nutrientes mediante inoculaciones microbianas. El objetivo fue evaluar el efecto de dos bioestimulantes a base de Trichoderma spp. y uno de Bacillus spp. en el diámetro, longitud y peso de frutos de chile morrón y jitomate en condiciones de macrotúnel. Los tratamientos fueron: Genifix®, T22®, Mix® y testigo. Se utilizó un diseño experimental en bloques al azar con cuatro repeticiones. Se utilizaron tres cortes de frutos por cultivo. Las variables de respuesta fueron: peso, diámetro y longitud de fruto, además del peso de 20 frutos elegidos al azar. Los frutos obtenidos con el tratamiento Genifix® fueron de mayor tamaño y peso, con diferencias significativas al resto de los tratamientos. El T22 y Mix mostraron un efecto significativo con frutos más grandes y pesados en comparación a frutos testigo en la mayoría de los cortes. Los bioestimulantes evaluados mejoraron el tamaño y peso de frutos de chile morrón y jitomate en plantas con un manejo mínimo tradicional de fertilización en condiciones de macrotúnel.

„Nie” dla zwierząt w cyrku
Authors: Kukiełko-Rogozińska Kalina
Published: June 2023

Celem artykułu jest prezentacja działań społecznej kampanii „Cyrk bez zwierząt”. Ponad dwadzieścia stowarzyszeń prozwierzęcych z całej Polski (m.in. Basta!, Viva!, Empatia) zawiązało koalicję, której podstawowym celem jest doprowadzenie do prawnego zakazu wykorzystywania zwierząt w cyrkach na terenie naszego kraju. Tego typu rozwiązania zostały już wprowadzone w kilku krajach na świecie, a stało się tak właśnie pod wpływem inicjatyw obywatelskich. W Polsce wciąż brak całościowych rozwiązań, ale wiele dokonuje się w tej kwestii w poszczególnych miastach (np. zakaz dystrybucji biletów do cyrku w szkołach wprowadzony przez Kuratorium Oświaty w Łodzi). Pod hasłem „Trąbimy przeciw cyrkom!” koalicja działa również na rzecz edukowania społeczeństwa (głównie dzieci i młodzieży – najliczniejszych cyrkowych widzów) poprzez zwiększanie świadomości o uczuciach, inteligencji, ale i cierpieniu zwierząt wykorzystywanych dla rozrywki człowieka.
Żywa natura z postronkiem. Szkic o małpach w wiedeńskich cyrkach w XIX wieku
Authors: Wąsik Monika
Published: June 2023

W artykule zostaje przedstawiona historia występów tresowanych małp w cyrkach i teatrach wiedeńskich w XIX w. Już od lat 30. XIX w. pokazy małp stanowiły bowiem jedną z największych atrakcji cyrkowych Wiednia, która cieszyła się uznaniem nie tylko publiczności spragnionej lekkiej rozrywki, lecz nawet teatralnych recenzentów. Popisy małp – zwłaszcza jeśli występowały w kostiumach i udawały ludzkie zachowania – budziły nie mniejsze zainteresowanie niż tresura zwierząt drapieżnych. O popularności tej rozrywki w Wiedniu może świadczyć fakt, że na Praterze powstawały teatry specjalizujące się tylko w tresurze tych zwierząt. Tresowana małpa została nawet bohaterką jednej ze sztuk Johanna Nestroya i w roku 1836 wystąpiła na scenie słynnego Theater an der Wien.
Bliscy czy odlegli? – współczesna recepcja, konstrukcja i dekonstrukcja idei freak show
Authors: Skręt Katarzyna
Published: June 2023

Autorka zwraca uwagę na recepcję osobliwego ciała wystawionego na pokaz: ciała żywego (biorącego udział w pokazach) oraz ciała martwego (udostępnianego widzom po śmierci). Taka optyka determinuje podjęcie tematyki transgresji i związanego z nią dualizum sacrum/profanum (w rozumieniu Georgesa Bataille’a). Autorka odnajduje interesującą, w jej opinii, recepcję idei freak show we współczesnej kulturze: dramacie (Miss Julia Pastrana Joanny Gerigk), filmie (Freaks Toma Browninga, 1932 i serialu American Horror Story: Freak Show, 2014) oraz w chirurgii plastycznej (modyfikacje ciała upodabniające ludzi do „dziwolągów”). Dzięki analizie powyższych zagadnień zwraca uwagę na różnice i podobieństwa między „zwykłymi” ludźmi a ludzkimi osobliwościami.
Difícil ser hombre : Nuevas masculinidades latinoamericanas
Authors: Fuller Norma
Published: June 2023

En el Perú y en Latinoamérica vivimos actualmente un proceso de cambios económicos, políticos y sociales. Estos inciden directamente en la estructura y las dinámicas de la familia, es decir afecta la manera en que se constituyen los roles, identidades y subjetividades de sus distintos miembros. Por ello, es indispensable analizar sus repercusiones, sobre todo en la construcción de las masculinidades, su vínculo con la corporeidad y sus consecuencias en el modelo patriarcal. Difícil ser hombre. Nuevas masculinidades latinoamericanas explora el devenir de las masculinidades en distintos niveles, en diversos ámbitos y con todas sus consistencias e inconsistencias. Con un lenguaje claro y directo, este libro presenta reflexiones sobre temas de género a partir de casos concretos de nuestra región. Todos los ensayos se preguntan a dónde van las masculinidades. ¿Se trata de cambios en el sentido de una mayor equidad de género o de adaptaciones a nuevas circunstancias? En suma, nos preguntamos cómo se vive una identidad que se define como fija al mismo tiempo que como cambiante y cuestionable.
Estilos de aprendizaje

Published: June 2023

Las instituciones educativas están pasando de la «transmisión de conocimientos» a la «construcción de conocimientos»; de una educación centrada en la actuación del profesor, a una información enfocada en el aprendizaje del alumno. Es un cambio en la epistemología y en lo que se considera como conocimiento y cómo este se adquiere. Desde este enfoque se plantea que una «comunidad de aprendizaje» infunde una «cultura de aprendizaje», donde el aprendizaje y la creatividad son apoyados y estimulados a través de estrategias que ayudan a los que aprenden a establecer metas posibles y a regular el propio comportamiento para lograr esas metas. Sin embargo, construir una cultura de aprendizaje no es fácil y por esto existe un creciente movimiento para desarrollar modelos apropiados y útiles para diseñar «ambientes o escenarios de aprendizaje» adecuados para facilitar que las personas desarrollen sus peculiares estilos de aprendizaje. A partir de este marco referencial, este texto presenta los enfoques teóricos sobre estilos de aprendizajes, en especial el planteado por Honey, Mumford y Alonso. Se propone el cuestionario Honey-Alonso de Estilos de Aprendizaje adaptado a nuestra realidad por los autores y se explica el uso del instrumento, específicamente en un caso de estudiantes universitarios. Finalmente se señalan recomendaciones para mejorar cada uno de los estilos de aprendizaje y sugerencias de estrategias de enseñanza para los docentes según los estilos de aprendizaje.
¡Usted fue aprista! : bases para una historia crítica del APRA

La anécdota que da título a este libro no podría ser más elocuente: un ya trajinado Haya de la Torre y el poeta Juan Gonzalo Rose se encontraban departiendo en un evento. “¡Usted fue aprista!” le recordó el líder al vate en ese entonces. “¡Usted también!” le respondió con enjundia el escritor. ¿Por qué hurgar en la historia de uno de los partidos políticos más controvertidos de nuestra historia republicana? ¿Por qué realizar la tarea casi imposible de indagar en los datos biográficos, la obra y el legado de su líder, Víctor Raúl Haya de la Torre? El historiador y sociólogo Nelson Manrique emprendió la riesgosa empresa de dar vida a esta biografía accidentada y llena de vacíos —por lo contradictorio y oculto de algunos datos— en su libro ¡Usted fue aprista! Bases para una historia crítica del APRA. Manrique utilizó testimonios de primera mano —como en el caso de Walter Palacios Vinces, militante y fundador del APRA Rebelde y del MIR y Violeta Carnero de Valcárcel, esposa del poeta Gustavo Valcárcel así como fuentes bibliográficas e historiográficas inestimables por su valor, además de fuentes periodísticas y hemerográficas de época. Manrique manifiesta en la dedicatoria que, por ejemplo, su padre aprista dimitió de la causa partidaria —al igual que lo hicieron una gran variedad de intelectuales, personalidades y miembros de la sociedad civil—, precisamente por los virajes ideológicos del partido de la estrella y por la llegada del nefasto gobierno de Alan García en 1985. Haya de la Torre dio la orden de desaparecer sus dos libros más importantes: El antiimperialismo y el APRA y Treinta años de aprismo, conjuntos que encarnaban el espíritu rebelde y coherente del aprismo en sus inicios, posteriormente rescatados y reeditados con mayores aportes por prestigiosas editoriales y en diversos tomos de su obra completa. La historia indica asimismo que el líder aprista implementó una serie de alianzas con ejes y agrupaciones contra las que supuestamente discrepaba: por ejemplo, con la oligarquía. Militantes que habían perdido a compañeros asesinados y habían sufrido persecución, cárcel y torturas durante la dictadura de Odría (1948-56), años después fueron emplazados a aceptar la alianza con su verdugo. Esta y otras vicisitudes del APRA están aquí presentadas en más de 400 páginas de gran lucidez, rigurosidad y excelente utilización de las fuentes.
Las novelas de José María Arguedas : una incursión a lo inarticulado
Authors: Portugal José Alberto
Published: June 2023

Este libro, según su autor, tiene mucho de “inestable”. José AlbertoPortugal ha tomado y retomado el presente trabajo, desde su gestación durante la época de tesis doctoral hasta su publicación definitiva como libro en abril de 2007, a través de un proceso ritual igual de complejo que la obra misma de José María Arguedas. En Las novelas de José María Arguedas. Una incursión en lo inarticulado Portugal presenta dos ensayos que nacen de una intensa y continua lectura y diálogo con la palabra del autor de Los ríos profundos. Ofrece una dinámica de preguntas y respuestas suscitadas por los libros del escritor andahuaylino en lo que parece ser una representación del carácter experimental, complejo y emotivo de su escritura: la manera en que su obra se hace y se reformula, las tensiones que la animan y la aquejan. Los argumentos vertidos en este volumen abren brechas o emergen de las que están dadas en el trabajo de otros críticos y estudiosos de la obra de Arguedas. Es decir, este libro dialoga no solo con sus novelas sino que interpela a y opera con los textos críticos escritos sobre ellas, para intentar un respuesta a las interrogantes sobre la relación del escritor y su obra.

Background: Thabdi is a milk-based sweet delicacy, produced and consumed widely in the Saurashtra region of Gujarat State. It is characterized with brown colour, granular texture and caramelized flavour. Peanuts being globally popular oil seed crop is considered as good source of fat, protein, carbohydrates, essential amino acids, minerals and other growth-promoting elements. In present study, peanut was included as ingredient for development of milk-based peanut thabdi. Methods: Brief method of milk-based peanut thabdi preparation included heat desiccation of milk till pre-pat formation stage, further heating with clarified milk fat (ghee) to get desired granular texture, followed by heating with added sugar and roasted peanut powder till desired brown colour is obtained. Fat/solid-not-fat (SNF) ratio of milk, peanut and sugar levels were optimized using response surface methodology. Result: The fat/SNF ratio of milk 1.11, 21% heat-treated and ground peanut (% w/w of milk solids, dry basis) and 80% sugar (% w/w of milk solids, dry basis) level were found to be optimum with a desirability of 0.92. Optimized thabdi samples indicated better acceptability with overall acceptability score of 8.54±0.03 compared to market samples. The product remained acceptable on 21st day with overall acceptability score of 7.21±0.10, when packed and stored at 7±2°C.

Published: June 2023

Financial programs may help veterans who have problematic financial status (PFS). As they support veterans, they improve their ability to meet their immediate financial needs (IFN) and financial satisfaction (FS) after their military-to-civilian transition. This study examined the use of financial programs and distilled them into their content components and the processes by which content components are delivered. This study examined the degree to which the use of specific content and process components resulted in changes in IFN and FS over the first 30–33 months after the transition. Financial content components, including investment, budgeting, homeownership, accessing benefits, and credit-score information, were associated with either improved IFN or FS. Interactive tools were often a significant process component associated with the above content components. These findings can assist program developers and practitioners in promoting the use of content and process components that may aid veterans who are experiencing PFS.

Published: June 2023

Background and Purpose:Caring for someone with Lewy body disease (LBD) is difficult. This study describes the development and validity testing of the LBD Caregiver Activities Scale (LBD-CAS).Methods:Caregiver interviews informed the development of the LBD-CAS. Experts estimated the content validity of items (I-CVI) and provided feedback about the scale. Family caregivers evaluated items for face validity.Results:Expert I-CVI ratings yielded 49 items with scores of 0.83 or higher. Four items with I-CVI scores <.83 were retained due to conceptual significance. The overall scale CVI was 0.86. Items evaluated by caregivers for face validity showed excellent variability in responses, with no major ceiling or floor effects.Conclusions:LBD-CAS showed evidence of content and face validity for the assessment of activities performed by LBD caregivers. Further psychometric testing is recommended.
A legalização do aborto na Argentina: proteção dos direitos das mulheres, meninas e pessoas que gestam
Authors: Matos Maurílio Castro de , Santos Franciele da Silva , Araújo Tatianny de Souza de
Published: June 2023

The fight for the legalization of abortion as a right of women and other people who give birth is part of the struggle for sexual and reproductive rights, and it has feminist movements as its main articulators. In the global south, we observe a mismatch in the guarantee of this right. Countries with similar realities that experienced the resumption of women's movements in the last decade did not have the same success and sometimes suffered setbacks. Unlike Brazil, for instance, Argentina experienced an important victory in 2020, the law of voluntary termination of pregnancy. Based on the partial results of the research entitled “The legalities and illegalities of the right to abortion in Latin America and the Caribbean”, which is currently analyzing the successful Argentine experience of legalizing the right to abortion, we intend to discuss some elements that will help to reveal which were the forces and arguments used in the fight for this right, sometimes expressed in the struggles of the referred movements, as well as an overview of the formerly conservative legislation and the current one, which considers the diversity of women, girls and people who give birth in that country.
Patriotism of the regional youth in the sociological dimension (case of the Penza region)
Authors: Kuznetsov Igor
Published: June 2023

The article presents the results of a study of the relationship between a number of socio-political dispositions of young people with variants of everyday patriotic ideas in terms of «civil» vs «protective» patriotism. For the empirical base of the study the authors used the data of a survey of young people aged 18-30 years, conducted in September 2020 in the Penza region (N=530). Based on the results of the study, it was found that the options for attitudes towards the country on the scale of «civil» vs «protective» patriotism, in connection with their characteristic socio-political dispositions, are systemic integrities that have both positive and negative characteristics, if we evaluate these variants in terms of their consolidation potential, that is so much in demand in the current situation. The civilian version of patriotism contains a serious resource for the development of the country in all areas, but it does not have any significant potential for nationwide consolidation. This variant of patriotism is extremely important and in demand during the period of sustainable development of society in favourable political and economic conditions, but is fraught with risks of fragmentation of the community into separate, explicitly or implicitly conflicting groups in critical situations. The protective version of patriotism is characterised by the vision of the Russian socio-cultural environment as a closed self-sufficient system. This does not provide a significant potential for the socio-economic and socio-cultural development of the country. The most serious drawback of the protective version of patriotism is the risk of its gradual degeneration into chauvinism. At the same time, the protective version of patriotism has a serious potential for the consolidation of almost all layers and groups of the Russian population. During periods of peaceful development of society in favourable external and internal conditions, this variant of patriotism is little in demand and even undesirable, but in critical situations, the protective variant of patriotism can become relevant and popular.
Adsorption of Methylene Blue by Magnetic Activated Carbon/Chitosan Composites Prepared from Spent Coffee Grounds : Kinetic, Equilibrium and Thermodynamic Study
Authors: Santosa Iliya Kartika , Meta Fitri Rizkiana
Published: June 2023

Spent coffee grounds were used as the main ingredient for the composing of magnetic activated carbon/chitosan (MACC) composites and synthesized using the coprecipitation method. The SEM-EDX characterization was used to understand elemental identification and morphology of the adsorbent before the MACC was applied for the removal of methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution. Magnetic activated carbon/chitosan was fabricated with the subsequent circumstances: the molar ratio of ferrous/ferric ions was 0.02 mol : 0.01 mol, coprecipitation temperature at 60°C for 5 h. Adsorption parameters for MB were investigated. The adsorption by MACC was evaluated thermodynamically for the discharge of MB from an aqueous solution as adsorption reckon on temperature. Calculations of thermodynamic parameters were conducted. Batch adsorption experiments were operated at 308 K; 318 K and MB concentration of 5-50 mg L-1 to investigate the adsorption behavior. According to the results, MACC has a porous structure. The adsorption process is more reactive upon raising the temperature, a process commonly known as endothermic. Based on R2values, the adsorption of MB onto MACC was found best fitted to Freundlich model. The maximum adsorption capacity of the MACC was counted as 24.5 mg/g. The adsorption process is spontaneous, which was concluded from the calculation of thermodynamic parameters.

This study aims to determine the implementation and accuracy of the Jean Meeus Algorithm in determining lunar and solar eclipses.This research is a qualitative research with a literature approach. The primary data source for this research is a book entitled Astronomical Algorithm by Jean Meeus. Meanwhile, secondary data is all information related to the Jean Meeus algorithm in determining eclipses obtained from various literature such as books, websites, encyclopedias, dictionaries, scientific articles, and other sources of information. The results of this study indicate that determining the eclipse time using the Jean Meeus algorithm involves seven stages of calculation namely; starting with determining the year the eclipse occurred, then determining the gamma value, JDE (Julian Day Ephemeris), the payoff value (k), the saros series, the reference time (To) and the Bessel Element value. The calculation of the Jean Meeus Algorithm is included in the tahkiki essential reckoning method because the calculation process involves astronomical data with very precise corrections for the motion of the Moon and the Sun, This method is also based on the heliocentric flow. In addition, the level of accuracy of Jean Meeus' calculations has a good match with NASA as a comparison, namely with results that are only 1 to 3 minutes apart and the average difference is only in seconds.
