Causalidad, contingencia y ciencia en Roberto Kilwardby
Authors: Fidora Alexander
Published: October 2022

El presente artículo examina el concepto de necesidad causal y de contingencia en Roberto Kilwardby (ca. 1215-1279).Este autor, en su Comentario a los Segundos Analíticos de Aristóteles y en el De ortu scientiarum, parece particularmente interesado en el precario estatuto epistemológico de la ética y de la física en tanto que estas disciplinas versan sobre acontecimientos contingentes. Con el fin de reconciliar el conocimiento científico en sentido estricto con formas conjeturales de conocimiento, Kilwardby sitúa el problema de la contingencia en un contexto auténticamente gnoseológico, más que metafísico, llegando así a una explicación altamente original de la contingencia.
La virtud de la justicia en la doctrina de Domingo de Soto
Authors: Scattola Merio
Published: October 2022

La justicia, según Domingo de Soto, co-fundador de la Escuela de Salamanca, es el eje que vincula ley y derecho, los dos núcleos de su De iustitia et iure. Y la justicia, cuyo tratamiento último lo proporciona

la filosofía y la teología, es una virtud humana que busca la justa relación de dos elementos, y que tiene por objeto la equidad, que se mide no tanto por la intención del agente, sino por su contenido objetivo. Lo justo se mide por dos planos, el del presupuesto y la consecuencia a los que se corresponden la ley y el derecho, con una estructura teleológica.
La esencia y las formas del amor según Max Scheler
Authors: Rodríguez Duplá Leonardo
Published: October 2022

La concepción del amor como movimiento hacia valores superiores se inspira en la descripción del fenómeno amoroso por antonomasia: el amor a seres personales. Pese a sus indudables méritos, el tratamiento de esta forma de amor ofrecido por Scheler adolece del defecto de no aclarar suficientemente cómo está dada en el amor la individualidad del amado. También es objetable que, al distinguir las formas principales del amor, Scheler interprete el amor espiritual como amor a los valores de lo santo; y más aún que termine considerando el amor amicitiae como un caso de amor anímico.
La ética de las emociones de Francisco Brentano
Authors: Vendrell Ferran Íngrid
Published: October 2022

En este artículo se analiza la teoría de las emociones de Brentano. Según esta teoría, las emociones son actos intencionales basados en juicios con un papel central en el reconocimiento del valor y en la motivación para la acción. Tras una exposición del panorama intelectual de las teorías de las emociones a finales del siglo XIX, sigue el análisis de la teoría de rentano y de su proyecto ético, para terminar remarcando la influencia de su legado en los autores de la escuela fenomenológica y la filosofía analítica.
Metodo scientifico e osservazione nei trattati naturali di Aristotele: il caso di uno «scandaloso errore»
Authors: Botter Barbara
Published: October 2022

Aristóteles ha sido considerado como el más grande biólogo de la antigüedad clásica, el primer zoólogo y el fundador de la anatomía comparada. En el presente ensayo examinaremos en qué medida el modelo normativo estipulado en los tratados lógicos se conforma a la recogida de datos empíricos presente en los tratados biológicos. En la segunda parte de la investigación examinaremos cómo los tratados lógicos habrían condicionado la explicación del funcionamiento del cerebro, llevando a Aristóteles a cometer un “error escandaloso”.
Finalidad y contingencia: la concepción kantiana de los organismos
Authors: Molina Eduardo
Published: October 2022

Una de las contribuciones más importantes de la Crítica de la facultad de juzgar de Kant es su concepción de los seres vivos u organismos como fines naturales. En este artículo se discutirán las principales características que Kant atribuye a los organismos y se intentará mostrar cómo se relaciona esta concepción con el principio de la finalidad de la naturaleza y con el problema de la legalidad de lo contingente.
Horizonticidad y tipicidad en la praxis y proto-praxis husserliana
Authors: Vicuña Zauschkevich Emilio
Published: October 2022

En el dominio de la experiencia cognitiva, el objeto desconocido del afán perceptivo es apercibido siempre de antemano bajo la forma de tipos empíricos pre-conocidos que se dejan flexibilizar merced a la confirmación, especificación o cancelación de horizontes. Análogamente, en el dominio de la experiencia práctica, la referencia a metas es siempre una intención tipificada que está mediada por horizontes prácticos que pre-señalan las condiciones de causación implicadas en cada curso de acción. Ello volvería comprensible, por una parte, el acto práctico como una vivencia cuyo correlato se establece sobre la base de una conciencia concomitante de la propia eficacia ensayada y, por otra, el mundo circundante práctico como campo de posicionalidad práctica.
Carmichael acerca de proposiciones y universales
Authors: Alvarado Marambio José Tomás
Published: October 2022

Este trabajo discute el argumento presentado por Carmichael (2010) para justificar la existencia de universales trascendentes, esto es, universales que no requieren instanciaciones para existir. Se sostiene en este trabajo que una proposición puede describir correctamente un mundo posible sin existir como una parte de ese mundo, esto es, que una proposición puede ser verdadera de un mundo posible, sin ser verdadera en un mundo posible. Se sostiene, además, que las mismas premisas usadas por Carmichael permiten justificar el necesitismo.
«Dike», «ius» o la libertad irrealizada. Sobre la abstracción del derecho en Hegel
Authors: Maureira Max
Published: October 2022

Hegel prácticamente no habla del derecho romano, sino del derecho abstracto: ¿por qué, pese a conocerlo, no lo menciona como tal? Aclararlo exige volver a lo que mienta el griego dike y el latino ius. Recién a partir de esto se advierte cómo es que, sobre esta base, y sobre lo que abre Kant, al convertir la libertad en principio supremo, Hegel construye su propia concepción del derecho, asentada en su comprensión del espíritu.
Algunas calas en el diálogo entre Francisco de Quevedo y «La torre de Babilonia» de Antonio Enríquez Gómez
Authors: Gambin Felice
Published: October 2022

El estudio se detiene sobre los homenajes literarios de Antonio Enríquez Gómez a la obra de Francisco de Quevedo. Las referencias del conquense al autor de los Sueños revelan muchas afinidades artísticas, visibles por ejemplo en El siglo pitagórico y Vida de don Gregorio Guadaña, en la Inquisición de Lucifer y sobre todo en La torre de Babilonia. A veces incluso Enríquez Gómez intenta reiterar y reelaborar los procedimientos de Quevedo, sin llegar a su originalidad e ingeniosidad. Más allá de la distancia social y de las divergencias ideológicas de ambos autores, Enríquez Gómez en La torre de Babilonia reelabora y transforma los materiales quevedianos, sobre todo la figura y el papel del nigromántico marqués de Villena del Sueño del infierno. Las relaciones entre La torre de Babilonia y los Sueños solicitan un trabajo más pormenorizado y de conjunto de los que se han hecho hasta hoy, y en particular exhortan a un análisis entre la Política de Dios, gobierno de Cristo y las dos emisiones de la Política angélica, que ya en el mismo título parece un calco del utilizado por Quevedo.
Filiación y cronología de algunas variantes de «El Buscón» de Quevedo
Authors: Morros-Mestres Bienvenido
Published: October 2022

Nadie puede discutir a estas alturas de los estudios sobre la novela que B representa la última versión que hizo Quevedo de ella, y si hay algún cambio que suponga una anomalía con respecto a otros pasajes irrespetuosos de B se debe a la censura ejercida sobre la primera edición de Zaragoza. El problema es saber si esos cambios tan extraños que introduce B los introdujo el propio autor o alguno de sus imitadores. Después de haber estudiado todos los testimonios con sus variantes puede elaborarse un stemma con contaminaciones y sostener la existencia como mínimo de dos redacciones.

Authors: Azaustre-Galiana Antonio
Published: October 2022

Este trabajo examina dos nuevos testimonios manuscritos de la prosa burlesca de Quevedo, recogidos en un códice que se custodia en la biblioteca del Wadham College (Oxford). Uno de ellos es, hasta hoy, el único testimonio manuscrito de La culta latiniparla; el otro, una copia del abecedario burlesco Papel de las cosas corrientes en la corte, por abecedario.
«La lonja de San Felipe» de Salas Barbadillo, entremés de «El caballero puntual»
Authors: Fiordaliso Giovanna
Published: October 2022

El propósito de este trabajo es enfocar y contextualizar el modus scribendi de Salas Barbadillo considerando los injertos en versos con los que enriquece su producción en prosa. Aunque la fama del autor se sustente, esencialmente, en su actividad como novelista, no es baladí afirmar que la calidad de su obra, caracterizada por un hibridismo y un afán de experimentación que la crítica ha destacado en varias ocasiones, se pueda analizar a través de unos elementos que se han dejado en penumbra, especialmente considerando su versificación y el marco en el que se produce.

En particular, la atención se centrará en un entremés presente en la segunda parte de El caballero puntual (1619), La lonja de San Felipe, representativo de la voluntad y del quehacer literario del autor.

The Angelology of Sergius Bulgakov
Authors: Raczyński-Rożek Maciej
Published: October 2022

Contemporary angelology is primarily an apologetic response to the negation of the existence of the angelic reality by liberal Protestantism. Bulgakov’s teaching about angels, on the other hand, arose as an indispensable part of the theological system. The orthodox author defines angels as created ideas of reality. As with Plato, every thing has its own idea, so with Bulgakov it has its own angel. The angels are therefore closely related to the earthly world and are its guardians, leading the world to the realization of the meaning given to it. Angels are also closely related to God because it is their nature to be filled with divine life. Thus, they constitute “Jacob’s ladder” — the reality that connects the world with God.
O „ukrzyżowanym erosie” Ignacego Antiocheńskiego w monografii naukowej Krzysztofa Abucewicza
Authors: Baron Arkadiusz
Published: October 2022

In 2021 was published a unique monograph on the interpretation of the evocation of Ignatius of Antioch, “My Eros”, presenting research from the beginning of Christianity (the letters come from the beginning of the 2nd century) to our times. It is a book by Krzysztof Abucewicz entitled The Crucified “Eros” of Ignatius of Antioch (Katowice 2021, 676 pages). The book is unique due to the wide scope of research and the extremely high competency of its author. The extensive amount of the work put into the research is awe-inspiring. The aim of the article is to show the content and main qualities of the book and to critically analyze of the conclusions drawn by Krzysztof Abucewicz. This article tries to clarify answers to the question about the possibility of establishing unequivocal conclusions, which researchers of history, literature and theology come to, regarding the interpretation of the evocation of Ignatius of Antioch. In this sense, the article is polemical in nature, aimed at encouraging theologians to read the discussed monograph and use it in their own theological research.

Authors:   Universidade de São Paulo, Silva Correa Júnior Antonio Jorge , Flexa Souza Thaís Cristina , de Santana Mary Elizabeth , Megumi Sonobe Helena , de Souza Pimentel Ingrid Magali , Nunes Carvalho Jacira
Published: October 2022

Objetivo: Conhecer o acesso e aguardo pela estomização de pessoas adoecidas por câncer colorretal no nível terciário do Sistema Único de Saúde. Materiais e Métodos: Estudo etnográfico fundamentado na Sociologia da Saúde, com 8 familiares e 14 adoecidos em Centro de Alta Complexidade em Oncologia, Brasil. Os dados foram coletados entre outubro de 2018 a março de 2019, com observação participante e não participante, registro em diário de campo e entrevista semiestruturada. Os depoimentos e notas etnográficas após triangulação foram submetidos a análise indutiva de conteúdo em seis etapas. Resultados: Apreenderam-se “A história do adoecimento entrecortada pelas dificuldades” e “As perdas no processo de paciência-resiliência no percurso”. Discussão: Em busca de validações biomédicas foram reportados três tipos de acesso ao sistema médico, assim como os subsentidos “paguei no particular” e atraso diagnóstico mobilizaram via oficial e não oficial no Sistema Único de Saúde. O capital social foi analisado como premente no adoecimento, uma rede de contatos sem a qual o acesso dos usuários é impactado. No nível terciário enquanto aguardam pela estomização desvelou-se a resiliência não como recurso heroico, mas como recurso pessoal e coletivo diante do percurso dificultoso e da semi-reclusão na instituição total onde vivenciam medos, fadiga e dores. Conclusão:O acesso contou com mobilização relacional e uma gama de vias até a internação com parte do percurso na saúde suplementar, já o aguardo pela estomização mitiga a paciência ao passo que torna a resiliência um recurso benéfico na espera pela programação cirúrgica.
Linguistic Methods of Intergenerational Dialogue Construction in the Prose of E. Vodolazkin
Authors:   Novosibirsk State Pedagogical University, Lappo Marina A.
Published: October 2022

This article considers one of the leading writer’s settings, the artistic construction of intergenerational dialogue, with reference to E. Vodolazkin’s novels Solovyov and Larionov, Laurus, Aviator, and Brisbane. This dialogue includes both the characters of fiction texts, representatives of different generations (contemporaries in general, young people, generations of the Soviet and pre-Soviet period, and even much older times of Russia’s existence), and their readers. The first stage of the study examines the specific narrative strategies that can be attributed to E. Vodolazkin’s idiostyle and which carry out intertemporal communication. It focuses on the hesitant narrator, i.e., although non-diegetic, but not quite “reliable” omniscient author; the echoing of the ego narrative of two or three leading characters; situations when the narrator’s speech part merges with the consciousness of the main character, who, in turn, by virtue of the storyline, penetrates the spiritual world of his direct or conditional ancestor. The second stage of the study analyses the linguistic strategies proper for neutralising generational conflicts, which support the above narrative strategies. Such speech techniques include a variety of ways of approximating and crossing linguistic and communicative boundaries: contact repetition in the dialogue, symbolism of the character’s name, the use of bilingualism (characters easily master languages, and the reader does not need footnotes), the introduction of the figure of the translator (an assistant in overcoming language barriers), the interpretation of agnonyms (obsolete and religious vocabulary, archaic forms), the use of anachronisms of various kinds (literary and cultural allusions, hidden quotations from texts unfamiliar to characters of the described era).
Revisiting the History of the Ural Mineral Industry and its Terminology: Who are тальяны (talians) Dedicated to?
Authors:   Ural Federal University, Beloborodov Sergei A. , Berezovich Elena L. ,   Ural Federal University
Published: October 2022

The authors study the history behind the development of mineral deposits in the Ural Gemstone Belt (near Murzinka village, Gornouralsky Urban District, Sverdlovsk Oblast), as well as mineralogical and toponymical terminology connected to this history. The analysis focuses on the following issues: how the deposits were discovered; what role in it belonged to visiting Italian masters (the Tortori brothers); how their activities are connected to the popular term тальян (тальянчик, тальяшка) ‘any precious (crystal) stone’, ‘amethyst’, ‘pure quartz’, ‘smoky quartz’, and the name of the mountain (mine) Тальян. The authors conclude that, although this version is widespread in popular literature, the Tortori brothers were not the first to discover gemstones near Murzinka settlement. The mountain name Тальян is a metonymic transfer from the name of a mine near Murzinka. In this mine, crystal gemstones were mined — mostly amethysts that were called тальяны. In any case, the word тальян derives from the stem (и)тальян- meaning “Italian” but is not connected to the discovery of the deposit. Most probably, the word conveys a naïve impression of coloured transparent stones that resemble Italian glass. Thus, it is a motivational parallel to the word вениса ‘garnet’ (lit. ‘Venetian stone’). The term тальян appeared no later than the eighteenth century; it already existed near Murzinka before the Tortori arrived. After their arrival, the word could gain a new motivational impetus — and started to be perceived as a result of dedicatory nomination.
Жемчуг in Russian Folklore
Authors:   Perm State National Research University, Kuchko Valeria S.
Published: October 2022

Pearls are some of the most frequently encountered gems in Russian folklore. This reflects their importance for Russian culture, where from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and up to the nineteenth century, they were among its symbols. Pearls were not only gems representing the highest strata of society and the highest clergy. They were relatively easily accessible to the common people, and even to the peasantry, especially in the Russian North, the territory of their extraction in Russia (the poor peasantry used imitations). The rootedness and high value of pearls in folk life contributed to the fact that words from the word-formation family жемчуг can be found in almost all genres of Russian folklore. This article aims to give a general idea of the relevance of the image of pearls in the texts of Russian folklore. The objectives of the article are also to highlight the genre breadth within which this image functions; to mention the themes and motifs in which there are references to pearls; to reveal the symbolism of pearls in folklore texts; to note the textual partners that most often accompany the appearance of pearls in folklore. The article mostly refers to Songs Collected by P. N. Rybnikov; collections of lamentations by E. V. Barsov and B. B. Efimenkova; collection of fairy tales by A. N. Afanasyev; song collection by A. I. Sobolevsky and some other collections of local and all-Russian folklore.
Viziers in the Administrative System of Egypt under the Burji Mamluks
Authors:   National Research University Higher School of Economics, Ilyushina Milana Yu.
Published: October 2022

Among the least studied issues in the history of the Sultanate of the Mamluks, there are the principles and dynamics of the Mamluks’ interaction with the administrative system represented by the local elite. The article considers issues connected with the transformation of the Mamluk administrative system which took place during the Burji period (1382–1517). As early as the thirteenth — fourteenth centuries, a gradual displacement of representatives of the civilian population from various administrative positions and their replacement with Mamluk emirs began. This process acquired particular importance in connection with the position of the vizier, since the last Mamluk sultans occupied this position before assuming the throne. In the twentieth century, D. Ayalon (1914–1998) raised some questions related to the evolution of the military-administrative system in Egypt between the thirteenth and fifteenth centuries, but a comprehensive and systematic study of the problems outlined by this pioneer and one of the founders of modern Mamluk studies has not yet been carried out. Based on several Arabic chronicles and biographical dictionaries of the fifteenth century, the author traces changes in the position and functions of the vizier in the Mamluk administrative system, highlighting the reasons for these changes, their significance for the evolution of political and social relations in the Mamluk Sultanate in the final period of its history. Referring to the vizierate, the author considers a significant transformation of the Egyptian state-administrative system under the Burji sultans, which is most closely associated with the destruction of the social boundaries and stereotypes that prevailed in the previous period, the acquisition of new forms and functions by political groups, and the reconfiguration of the central government.
NANOINDENTATION EXPERIMENTS TO STUDY THE MICROMECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF STRATIFIED SHALE
Authors: Yang Liu , Han Zhenchuan , Feng Xiaoyu , Liu Canhua , Liu Kai , Zhang Yu , Guo Pingye
Published: October 2022

The micromechanical properties of stratified shale are critical for understanding wellbore stability and hydraulic fracture extension patterns. Based on nanoindentation experiments and data analysis, the mechanical parameters of shale specimens from two laminar directions of the Jimsar Lucaogou Formation in Xinjiang are measured from a microscopic perspective in this paper. The mechanical parameters of multiple indentation points are obtained using grid indentation. The mineral composition of the samples is quantified using field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and XRD ray diffraction. The results show that the shale mechanical parameters have a good linear relationship with each other at the nanoscale. However, the relationship between horizontal bedding and vertical bedding is quite different. The average elastic modulus, average hardness, and average fracture toughness of the parallel laminated specimens are 22.94 GPa, 1.04 GPa, and 1.19 MPa·m1/2, respectively. The average elastic modulus, average hardness, and average fracture toughness of the vertical laminated specimens are 35.23 GPa, 3.47 GPa, and 1.32 MPa·m1/2, respectively. The shale mechanical parameters in the vertical bedding direction are higher than those in the horizontal laminae. The mechanical parameters at the nanoscale are related to the orientation of the laminae. The shale is anisotropic at the nanoscale and the anisotropy of different mechanical parameters behaves differently. The microscopic elastic modulus, hardness, and fracture toughness of shale conform to Weibull distribution. The dispersion of hardness is the highest. The results can help analyze the relationship between shale mechanical properties and laminar orientation.

Authors: Liao Yuan , Ding Wangxing , Liu Yuqing , Zhang Yajun
Published: October 2022

Danjiangkou Reservoir Bridge, the world’s longest earth-anchored composite cable-stayed bridge, connects the highway networks of Hubei and Henan provinces in China. With a main span of 760 m, the 2022 structure is also the first of its kind to use a non-axial-force connection at mid-span and a steel and ultra-high performance concrete lightweight composite construction for the main-span girder. This paper describes the configuration of the non-axial-force connection, the arrangement of the composite girder and a new steel–concrete deck joint. It also explains how construction challenges were innovatively resolved by new closure and segmental precast erection methods.
Morphological controls on flow conductivity and viscosity of bentonite–polymer composites
Authors: Geng Weijuan , Liu Meishen , Benson Craig , Likos William J , Gadikota Greeshma
Published: October 2022

In this study, the authors investigate the morphological organisation of polymers in bentonite–polymer composites (BPCs) used in geosynthetic clay liners and controls on hydraulic conductivity and viscosity. A limited understanding of the relationship between the microstructure of BPCs and their macroscopic engineering behaviour motivates this study. The polymer resides in the inter-granular pores of bentonite based on synchrotron-based small-angle X-ray scattering measurements, scanning electron microscopy imaging and pore size analyses. On wetting, the polymer swells to produce a swollen hydrogel residing in the inter-granular pores. Enhanced tortuosity arising from hydrogel formation reduces the hydraulic conductivity of BPCs. The higher viscosity of the BPC slurry is attributed to the higher shear resistance emerging from swelling of the polymer fraction on wetting. These findings link the morphological features of BPCs to the observed hydraulic conductivity and viscosity of these materials.
The climate is right for a fundamental change in civil engineering education
Authors: Ibell Tim , Russell Nick
Published: October 2022

Since the industrial revolution, the civil engineers who created a built environment for a civilisation that is based on fossil fuel have been admired. For over 250 years, engineers have been educated and trained for the ‘upslope’ of using ever more resources to fuel engineering needs. However, there is now an urgent requirement to enter an era that is an order of magnitude shorter, and which is on the steep ‘downslope’ towards net-zero carbon dioxide by 2050 or earlier. The difference between what it meant to be an engineer on the upslope and what it means to be engineer on the downslope is colossal. The first step for all educators is to realise this, to embrace it and to be part of the solution by instilling a downslope mentality in engineering students. The Joint Board of Moderators (JBM) has recently reviewed and updated its guidelines for universities. It has placed the climate emergency central to the education of future civil engineers. This paper describes the background to, and details of, the changes made by the JBM. Given that creativity is enhanced through these additional challenges, what could possibly be more exciting for today's engineering students than knowing that they will lead the profession in achieving massive reductions in emissions, to the benefit of all humanity? The JBM, and society, require of civil engineering education that this ambition is fulfilled.
Comparative Study of Cyanoacrylate Glue and Endovenous Laser Ablation Techniques for the Treatment of Varicose Veins
Authors: ŞAHİN Serpil , URCUN Yusuf Salim
Published: October 2022

Aim: The aim of this study is to provide a comparison between two minimally invasive techniques; cyanoacrylate glue (CG) and endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) for the treatment of varicose veins. Material and Method: This study was a retrospective study of patients with varicose veins who underwent EVLA or CG techniques between January 2018 and December 2021. The demographic characteristics of the patients, patient complaints and symptoms, postoperative 1st and 6th month Doppler-Ultrasound control results and preoperative-postoperative comparisons were made. Results: A total of 200 adult patients were treated with CG (n=54) or EVLA (n=146) techniques. The doppler- ultrasound tests of the 1st and 6th months determined that the success rates of the EVLA and CG groups were 96.6% and 92.6%, respectively. Conclusion: Statistically significant was observed in both groups when the results of the pre-postoperative Venous Clinical Severity Score of CG and EVLA patients were evaluated. From the data analysis, we have found that the duration of the procedure was significantly shorter in the CG group, the ecchymosis and erythema were observed significantly less in the CG group, and the return time to normal activity was shorter in the CG group.
Relationship Between Platelet Indices and Prolonged Hospitalization in Patients with Acute Pancreatitis: A Retrospective Observational Study
Authors: ALTUNOK İbrahim , ÖZDEMİR Serdar
Published: October 2022

Aim: To investigate relationship between platelet count, platelet mass index, mean platelet volume, platelet distribution width and plateletcrit and prolonged hospitalization in patients with acute pancreatitis. Material and Method: This study was conducted as a retrospective cohort study of all patients with acute pancreatitis from a tertiary level, academic emergency department between June 2017 and July 2021. Demographics, comorbidities, laboratory parameters, length of stay in the hospital and 30-day mortality information of the patients were recorded using computer-based data system of the hospital. Hospitalizations lasting longer than 7 days were considered as prolonged hospitalization. Results: 752 patients with a median of age of 58 years (25th-75th percentiles: 43.5-75) were included in the study. The median length of hospital stay of the enrolled patients was 4 days (25th-75th percentiles: 3-7). The hospitalization of 166 patients was prolonged, and the prolonged hospitalization rate was 22.1%. The univariate analysis for platelet indices showed that there was no statistically significant difference [Platelet count (p=0.543), mean platelet volume (p=0.656), plateletcrit (p=0.427), platelet distribution width (p=0.497), and platelet mass index (p=0.484)]. Conclusion: There is no clear relationship between platelet indices and prolonged hospitalization and they could not be predictors of prolonged hospitalization in patients with acute pancreatitis.
Investigation of Cytotoxic Effects and Antiviral Efficacy of Six Medicinal Plants against SARS-CoV-2
Authors: IŞIK Bülent , ASİL Hasan , ALP Harun , CANSARAN DUMAN Doç. Dr. Demet
Published: October 2022

Aim: Today, the COVID-19 pandemic, which causes deaths in 224 countries around the world, continues to show its effect all over the world. However, unfortunately, there are few studies that determine the effect of natural products derived from plants on COVID-19. However, as it is known, the source of most drugs is plants and medicinal aromatic plants have been used frequently for therapeutic purposes since the existence of humanity. The aim of this study is to investigate the cytotoxic effects of six medicinal plants such as Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra), Saffron (Crocus sativus L.), Black Cumin (Nigella sativa L.), Laurel (Lauris nobilis), Buckwheat (Lavandula stoechas) and Zahter (Thymbra spicata L. var. spicata) and their antiviral activities against SARS-CoV-2 in vitro conditions.

Material and Method: This study was carried out in two stages. In the first stage, plants were collected and extracts were obtained. At the beginning of the second stage, cytotoxic effects on vero cells at non-cytotoxic broad-spectrum concentrations against SARS-CoV-2 in cell culture of six medicinal plants were investigated. In this step, the concentration of six ethnobotanically important medicinal plants that were not cytotoxic to SARS-CoV-2 was determined. In the continuation of the second stage, the plants were evaluated for the determination of viral replication inhibition and their antiviral effectiveness against SARS-CoV-2. In this step, in vitro antiviral effects of plants against SARS-CoV-2 were determined at a concentration that did not show cytotoxic effects..

Results: The concentration of six plants used in the study without cytotoxic effects was determined.. Among the plants examined, it was determined that the only plant that was effective against SARS-CoV-2 in vitro conditions was the licorice plant (Glycyrrhiza glabra). The licorice plant was found to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 in vitro at the 2nd dilution (1:4) after the initial concentration.

Conclusion: According to the findings obtained from our study, it was determined that the licorice plant was effective against the SARS-CoV-2 in vitro conditions. Supported by further studies, it can be thought that our findings may contribute to the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.

Keywords: SARS-CoV-2, Antiviral Efficacy, Plant Extract, Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra), Saffron (Crocus sativus L.), Black Cumin (Nigella sativa L.), Laurel (Lauris nobilis), Buckwheat (Lavandula stoechas), Zahter (Thymbra spicata L. var. spicata).

Published: October 2022

Aim: Many treatment methods have endeavored during the Coronavirus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Particularly before the vaccines came into use, the medical world gained adequate experience with convalescent plasma (CP) administration, which was ignored after preventive remedies. In this study, we compared the clinical conditions and treatments during the infection with pulmonary fibrosis after recovery.

Material and Method: This prospective, cross-sectional study was conducted with COVID-19 patients. The patients were divided into two groups according to the severity of the disease. Sixty of them were reevaluated regarding pulmonary fibrosis via high-resolution computed tomography performed in the 6th month after recovery.

Results: A total of 60 patients (mean age=54.05±9.16) participated in this study. Both severe and non-severe groups were equal in the number of patients. There was no difference between the groups in the evaluation of fibrosis scores. However, in those with pulmonary fibrosis, age, CURB-65 scores, and D-dimer levels were found to be higher, whereas hematocrit levels were lower. In lymphopenic patients, almost 95% of those who underwent CP treatment had fibrosis (p=0.013). This fibrosis formation was more prominent in the non-severe group (p=0.028). Comparable fibrosis increation persisted in diabetics.

Conclusion: Based on the results, the pulmonary involvement of COVID-19 may form persistent fibrosis after recovery. The accuracy of administering CP treatment in non-severe patients with lymphopenia should be reviewed, as it might increase pulmonary fibrosis.

Helikopter uçuşlarında baskın ve gizliliğin ön planda tutulduğu planlamalarda geceden faydalanma önem kazanmakta ve geceyi avantaja çevirme konusunda gece görüş sistemleri önemli rol oynamaktadır. Gece uçuşlarının icra edildiği zaman aralığı ve ilave takılan teçhizat, yorgunluğa; yorgunlukta havacılık anlamında, dikkat azalmasına, konsantrasyon güçlüğüne ve hatalı karar verme gibi sorunlara yol açmaktadır. Bu çalışmayla, gece icra edilen uçuşlarda, fazladan takılan uçuş teçhizatının yarattığı bazı kısıtların iyileştirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Literatürden faydalanmak suretiyle gece görüş gözlüklerine ait özelliklerin değerlendirilmesi amacıyla anket oluşturulmuştur. İlgili firmalardan temin edilen farklı fosfor tiplerinde (beyaz ve yeşil) gece görüş gözlükleri ile uçuş icra edilmiştir. Pilotlardan, anket yöntemiyle, her tip gece görüş gözlüğüne ait, derinlik algısı, kontrast hassasiyeti, mesafe tahmini hassasiyeti, hale etkisi, beden yorgunluğu, boyun ağrısı şiddeti ve göz yorgunluğunu şiddetinin belirtilmesi istenmiştir. Yapılan çalışmada, pilotların farklı tipte gece görüş gözlüğü kullanılarak icra ettiği uçuşlarda bilişsel yorgunluğun tespiti ve bu durumun sonuçlarının ortaya çıkarılması amaçlanmıştır. Mesafe tahmini, derinlik algısı gibi hususlarda, beyaz fosforlu gece görüş gözlüğünün, yeşil fosforlu gece görüş gözlüğüne göre daha iyi sonuçlar vermiş olsa da, farklı ay durumu, farklı çevresel uçuş ortamları (karla örtülü arazi, sık orman gibi) ve farklı görev tiplerinde, daha uzun süre uçularak denenmesinin uygun olacağı değerlendirilmektedir.

Küresel iklim değişikliğinin en somut sonuçlarından biri olan kuraklığın, geleceğin tarım anlayışınıköklü bir şekilde değiştireceği açıktır. Kuraklığa dayanıklı ve girdi maliyeti düşük olan ürünlerdaha yaygın yetiştirilecektir. Dolayısıyla organik tarım uygulamaları ve bu konuda geliştirilen politikalarınönemi giderek artacaktır. Bununla birlikte organik tarımın ortaya çıkışı konvansiyoneltarımın felsefesine bir karşı çıkıştır. Organik tarımda konvansiyonelleşme tartışmaları 1990’lardanberi devam etmektedir. Aynı şekilde organik tarımda konvansiyonelleşme tartışmalarınınbundan sonra da artacağı düşünülmektedir. Konvansiyonelleşme sürecinde organik üreticilerintemel motivasyonu kârı maksimize etmektir. Böylece bu sürecin kırsal kalkınmaya katkı sağlamasıbeklenmektedir. Dahası küresel göçü azaltabilmenin alternatiflerinden birisi de değişenküresel dinamiklere uyumlu kırsal kalkınma stratejilerinin izlenmesidir. Bu bağlamda araştırmanınamacı, organik tarım sektöründe yoğun bir şekilde tartışılan konvansiyonelleşme ve kırsalkalkınma argümanlarının nasıl irdelendiğini ortaya koymaktır. Teorik tartışmalardan oluşan buaraştırmada ortaya konan bazı sonuçlar bulunmaktadır. Bunların başında organik tarımda konvansiyonelleşmeve kırsal kalkınma olguları arasında derin bir bağlantının olduğu sonucu ortayaçıkmıştır. Konvansiyonelleşme kriterleri kırsal kalkınmayı tesis etmede önemli argümanlardanbiridir. Bu çalışma organik tarım ekseninde kırsal kalkınma ve konvansiyonelleşme argümanlarınıbirbiriyle ilişkilendiren ilk araştırma olmasından dolayı literatürde önemli bir boşluğu doldurmaktadır.

Modern light sources, such as LEDs, make it possible to create highly efficient lighting devices with a high color rendering index (at least 85), and a luminous efficiency of up to 250 lm/W. Insufficient lighting can cause visual discomfort. A long stay in conditions of visual discomfort and tension leads to a lack of concentration, visual and general fatigue. The main challenge facing lighting manufacturers is to minimize color differences between individual lighting fixtures or between production batches. In this work, it was necessary to evaluate the spatial distribution of the spectrocolorimetric characteristics of LED lamps in MacAdam steps. To do this, at the beginning, such concepts as a comfortable light environment, correlated color temperature and MacAdam ellipses were considered. Further, it was necessary to measure 10 samples of the LED emitting element. The measurements were carried out using such instruments as a goniophotometer and a spectrocolorimeter. As a result, the main colorimetric characteristics, such as color coordinates, were obtained. Based on the chromaticity coordinates, the color deviation in MacAdam steps was calculated for each sample. Also, a regression analysis was carried out and an approximating expression for the chromaticity coordinates was obtained. On the basis of the approximating expression for the chromaticity coordinates, the average color deviation in MacAdam steps was calculated. The value made up 5 steps. The deviation for the values –40 and 40 was also calculated. In order to reduce the color deviation (reduce the number of McAdam steps), it is necessary to make changes in the technological process of manufacturing the phosphor composition. For example, to reduce the thickness of the phosphor coating or reduce the concentration of phosphor. The results of these studies can be used by the developers of LED lamps based on LED emitting elements in order to improve the uniformity of the spatial distribution of color.

This text treats of the questions of teaching-learning in Nursing and expose some reflections about our living as professors in the discipline of Living Learning I in the 1st phase of the Course of Graduation in Nursing of the Santa Catarina Federal University – UFSC. This discipline goes from the experience of the students, and the teacher is the learning facilitater. As professors we need to propitiate participative spaces of pedagogycal reflection that allow to the students a sensible and critical-criative formation. It presents in its metodology, dynamics to be realized with the student in manner that they can develop the self-knowledge, criativity, verbal and non-verbal expression. By end, it points that the experiences lived by them unleash significative changes in the formation of the nurse and that the teaching-learning process must be followed togheter – teacher and student.
Quality of life: considerations about concept and instruments of measure.
Authors: Butolo Vido Milena , Quintella Fernandes Rosa Aurea
Published: October 2022

The concept of quality of life has been having more and more attention in scientific literature in different areas, specially nursing. It is a concept with many meanings, different possibilities of focusing and uncountable and controversial theories and methods. The text reflects about the importance of the construction and analysis of the concept of quality of life for the nursing area. Deals with the main instruments used for measuring and also establishes a relationship between quality of life and health. These efforts have helped to clear up the concept and achieve some maturity. When we get to know the quality of life of people is easier to change paradigms in what concerns the assistance in the health/sickness process, for the reason that in some traditional assistance, social/economical, psychological and cultural aspects are not considered, which are so important in the actions of promotion, prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of health.

This study has as objectives the identification of the characteristics of the worker-students enrolled in the Middle Level Technical School for Professional Qualification in Nursing and the evaluation of their Quality of Life. It is a descriptive, exploratory, cross-sectional field study, with a qualitative focus. The population consisted of 101 worker-students enrolled in the morning, afternoon and night periods, in a private technical school in the city of S. Paulo. To evaluate their Quality of Life we used the Ferrans and Powers QOL, obtained from four dominions: Health/functioning, Socialeconomic, Psychologic/spiritual and Family. The QOL showed reliability, for this study, with an alpha value of 0.84. The majority (82.2%) of the students were females, 63.3% caucasian, 65.7% were aged between 19 and 29 years, 68.3% were single, 73.3% had no children, 82.8% said they slept less than 6 hours/day, 90.1% said they didnt eat properly and did it at incorrect hours. As for leisure, 67.9% of them referred to visiting family or friends and 63.1% referred to watching TV. In the evaluation of their Quality of Life we obtained the following scores: total Quality of Life, 21.07 (SD=4.50), Health/functioning, 20.01 (SD=5.03); Socio-economic, 20.09 (SD=4.82); Psychologic/spiritual, 23.58 (SD=5.41); and Family, 22.18 (SD=6.61).

This study aimed at understanding the alterations in the fertility lived deeply by people with spinal cord injury. It was developed with 9 people with spinal cord injury, men and women, with paraplegy and quadriplegy. The data had been gotten between November of 2004 and May of 2005. The instrument used to collect the data was a semi-structured interview and they were analyzed descriptively in the light of the literature about the theme. The analyzed speeches made evident that there is a great diversification between the degree of the injury and the presence of ejaculation. Among the patients with complete injury, some of them related ejaculation and others did not. The same happened among patients with incomplete injury. Other alterations faced by men with spinal cord injury were related, for instance, retrograde ejaculation and reduction of the activity and mobility of the spermatozoon. On the other hand, among female patients, the knowledge that their fertility doesn’t undergo great damages was evident. Nursing is in an important position to promote health in this area, what requires a specific preparation and spontaneity to approach positive attitudes towards the new reality of life of the person with spinal cord injury.
