Published: June 2021

The temperature-frequency dependences of the dielectric  permittivity and conductivity of Li2O-Fe2O3-Al2O3 ceramics in the temperature range of 298-648 K were obtained by impedance spectroscopy. Their analysis indicates the presence of a fractal-like structure in the studied samples, the effect of which is manifested at low temperatures. To study the phenomenon of electric polarization associated with this structure, we used the generalized law of Jonscher. A significant dependence of the dispersion of dielectric and conductive properties of these spinel ceramics on the temperature and aluminum content in them was revealed.

Published: June 2021

In order to identify ways to improve the technological process of smelting metallic (crystalline) silicon of technical purity, a thermodynamic analysis of the interaction of components in the SiO2-C system is carried out that reveals the main factor in obtaining high-quality technical silicon is the elimination of superposition of the silicon carbonization process that is possible by carrying out a two-stage carbothermal reduction reaction, in that firstly the incomplete reduction of silica (SiO2) by solid carbon (C) is provided, accompanied by the release of new reacting gas components - SiO and CO, the subsequent interaction of which leads to the formation of the target product - technical silicon that is suitable for the production of modern solar energy converters. It is determined that main condition for highly efficient reduction reactions is the fine fractionness (<1 mm) of the used quartzite ore with keeping of a rational temperature range for its carbothermal reduction (1688-2000 K). It has been shown experimentally that the optimal technical solution for the implementation of this reduction process is to performt melting in a special plasma-chemical furnace-reactor with one liquid-metal subconducting electrode, with a reverse vertical feed of the reaction gases released at the first stage. The degree of extraction of silicon was on average 95%, and the degree of its purity was 97.2%.

The aim of this paper is to compare the structural, morphological and electrical properties of the CuFe2O4 and CuFe2O4 / reduced graphene oxide composite. XRD and Mossbauer studies have shown that joint hydrothermal synthesis of cubic copper ferrite and reduction of graphene oxide leads to a decrease in ferrite particles from 14 to 8 nm. Based on the impedance spectroscopy data, a model of the obtained composite material has been prepared as a system consisting of contacting spinel particles covered with rGO clusters and separated by porous rGO. For CuFe2O4 / rGO composite material, the predominance of hopping charge transfer mechanisms has been shown, and the activation energies of electrical conductivity of grains and grain boundaries have been calculated.
Educación y Democracia
Authors: Sánchez-Gey Venegas Juana
Published: June 2021

Educación y democracia son dos concepciones nucleares e integradoras en el pensamiento de María Zambrano. Al mismo tiempo ambas se entrelazan. La razón poética se hace razón mediadora cuando la filósofa reflexiona sobre la educción, de este modo educar consiste en formar a la persona en su contexto histórico y ciudadano. Si la razón poética propone una mirada sobre el mundo, el ritmo de esta mirada es la razón mediadora y demócrata.
En torno a una copia inédita de la primera edición frustrada de la Summa sacramentorum (1541). El epitomizador Tomás de Chaves y la circulación manuscrita de las lecciones de Francisco de Vitoria In IV Sent
Authors: Egío García José Luis
Published: June 2021

Mientras que las lecciones de Vitoria sobre la Summa Theologiae de Tomás de Aquino y sus relecciones sobre los llamados ‘asuntos de Indias’ han sido editadas, traducidas y bastante trabajadas por la historiografía precedente, hasta el punto de dar lugar, en algunos casos, a una literatura repetitiva y tediosa, las lecciones que en los cursos 1529-31 y 1538-39 dedicó al IV de las Sentencias de Pedro Lombardo permanecen inéditas, siendo difícil incluso encontrar literatura al respecto. Este artículo demuestra que fue, precisamente, esta parte de la producción intelectual de Vitoria la que discípulos como Tomás de Chaves comenzaron a hacer circular en manuscritos ya durante la vida del maestro. Los esfuerzos de Chaves quien, como probamos en el artículo gracias al hallazgo de un manuscrito inédito, ya en 1541 tenía listo un compendio sobre la teología sacramental y pragmática de Vitoria —compendio que sólo pudo ver la luz en 1560, bajo el título Summa sacramentorum ecclesiae—, deben ser vistos como un episodio clave en la consolidación de la fama póstuma de Vitoria y la emergencia de la Escuela de Salamanca.
‘Good, Rich, or Secure?’. Spanish Scholasticism and Law’s Development of Virtue
Authors: Kincaid Elisabeth Rain
Published: June 2021

In this paper, I argue that the work of Vitoria, Soto, and Suárez presents a sustained tradition arguing that the proper end of civil law is formation in true virtue of the citizens, making citizens capable of achieving natural happiness. Although this development in virtue may prepare citizens to obtain the supernatural happiness made possible ultimately by God’s grace, it still contains its own integrity and moral importance.
Báñez frente a Suárez acerca de la libertad
Authors: Torrijos Castrillejo David
Published: June 2021

En varias ocasiones, Báñez consideró a Suárez el principal promotor de la doctrina molinista junto al propio Molina. Según Báñez, el principal error del molinismo reside en una mala comprensión de la libertad. Esto le llevó a perfilar su teoría tomista de la libertad, según la cual el libre albedrío está radicalmente en el entendimiento y formalmente en la voluntad. El entendimiento es la raíz porque la indiferencia más importante se encuentra en el objeto, cuya conexión con el fin aparece como no necesaria. El entendimiento que capta esto origina una volición formalmente libre que no es incompatible con la eficaz moción divina.
salario justo en los teólogos jesuitas de la segunda escolástica: Luis de Molina, Francisco Suárez y Juan de Lugo
Authors: Contreras Aguirre Sebastián , Miranda Montecinos Alejandro , Sierra Herrero Alfredo
Published: June 2021

En este texto se analizan las ideas sobre el salario justo expuestas por Francisco Suárez en sus Conselhos e pareceres. Los autores procuran mostrar que el Doctor Eximio revela una profunda preocupación por el aspecto humano-social del trabajo, acercándose en esta materia a algunos postulados del moderno derecho laboral. En este sentido, la posición de Suárez se diferencia de la sostenida por otros escolásticos de los siglos xvi-xvii, que se limitaron a discutir los problemas sobre la relación del trabajo y el salario justo dentro de un marco principalmente económico.
Rosi Braidotti, lectora de Spinoza: una política afirmativa más allá del humanismo
Authors: Dorado Romero Juan
Published: June 2021

En este artículo propongo un acercamiento a la obra de la filósofa italiana Rosi Braidotti para rastrear su particular lectura y recuperación del legado ético y político de Baruch Spinoza. La ontología monista de Spinoza ha servido a nuestra autora para plantear una forma novedosa y radical de posthumanismo crítico, que le ha servido tanto para evidenciar las límites teóricos y conceptuales del humanismo tradicional como para avanzar en una línea de investigación que comienza por la aceptación del continuum naturaleza-cultura. Revisamos la propuesta de Braidotti de una ética y una política afirmativa que sirva abordar la complejidad de nuestros tiempos presentes.
Archivida para una ontología del sentido. El lugar de la deconstrucción en la biopolítica de Giorgio Agamben
Authors: García Pérez María
Published: June 2021

En el presente artículo nos proponemos arrojar luz sobre el vínculo entre la deconstrucción de Jacques Derrida y la biopolítica de Giorgio Agamben. Este nexo se hace explícito, sobre todo, en la noción de umbral de indiscernibilidad y en el comunitarismo que sostiene el italiano. La comunidad de los cualsea constituye la ocasión para la puesta al límite de las conclusiones derridianas cada vez que ambos se enfrentan a la teología política de Carl Schmitt desde una ontología del sentido que viene a desfondar la venida a presencia y, así, la totalización de los conceptos de amigo y de enemigo.
fundamentos de la democracia liberal según John Rawls
Authors: Kohn Wacher Carlos
Published: June 2021

Este ensayo tiene como objetivo examinar los argumentos que John Rawls utiliza para imprimirle validez y facticidad a la democracia mediante la adjudicación de criterios éticos liberales. Mi propósito es analizar las condiciones de posibilidad de su teoría normativa para legitimar la gobernabilidad democrática bajo principios de justicia. Mi conclusión es que el liberalismo político padece de déficits significativos a la hora de empoderar las instituciones democráticas tal como operan hoy en día.
La filosofía de Hegel o el espíritu en busca de definición
Authors: Gutiérrez Pozo Antonio
Published: June 2021

El espíritu según Hegel se duplica, o sea, se hace reflexionando sobre sí mismo, convirtiendo su ser en sí en ser para sí. Pero, por una parte, autoconocerse, hacerse objeto de sí mismo, implica extrañarse, hacerse otro. Por otra, el espíritu sólo puede reconocerse en el otro si el otro es también sí mismo. Sólo puede haber autorreconocimiento en el extrañamiento cuando éste no es radical. La meta del espíritu hegeliano es comprenderse y definirse. Esa definición total se logra en la filosofía. La historia de la filosofía es el progreso en la autocomprensión y realización del espíritu. Esta historia y el espíritu se consuman cuando se logra la comprensión filosófica del espíritu. Esto ocurre en la filosofía de Hegel.

Aluminum silicate fibers reinforced wood-plastic composites: A strengthening strategy based on the interfacial interactions between inorganic fibers and organic agricultural wastes
Authors: Yu Wenfan , Lu Wenyu , Han Xiangsheng , Cai Hongzhen
Published: June 2021

Using the methods of high-speed mixing, screw extrusion, and injection molding, wood-plastic composites (CS-PF-ASFX) with inorganic fibers (aluminum silicate fibers, ASF) and organic agricultural wastes (cotton stalk, CS) as reinforcing fillers were prepared. The effects of different contents of ASF on the properties of wood-plastic composites were analyzed. Materials were characterized by Fourier infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and thermogravimetric (TG) analyses. The creep, relaxation, and mechanical behavior were also tested. With the increase of ASF contents, the FT-IR peaks at approximately 1740 cm-1 shifted to lower wavenumber, indicating the potential interactions between ASF and CS. The XRD patterns of the composites implied that the crystal structures of each component were maintained. Moreover, the addition of ASF enhanced the mechanical properties and thermal stabilities of CS-PF-ASFX composites, and the tensile strength and impact strength reached maximum of approximately 39.4 MPa and approximately 3.89 kJ/m2, respectively.

Why You Should Know and Not Only Use Sorting Algorithms: Some Beautiful Problems
Authors: Nikházy László , NOSZÁLY Áron , DEÁK Bence
Published: June 2021

In most programming languages, the built-in (standard library) sort() function is the
most convenient and efficient way for ordering data. Many software engineers have forgotten (or never knew) the underlying algorithms. In programming contests, almost all of the tasks involving sorting can be solved with only knowing how to use the sort() function. The question might arise in young students: do we need to know how it works if we only need to use it? Also, why should we know multiple efficient sorting algorithms, is not one enough? In this paper, we help the teachers to give the best answers to these questions: some beautiful tasks where the key to the solution lies in knowing a particular sorting algorithm. In some cases, the sorting algorithms are applied as a surprisingly nice idea, for example, in an interactive task or a geometry question.

Authors: Raimondi Nicolás , Massetti Sergio , Villada Andrés
Published: June 2021

Introducción: Las técnicas quirúrgicas modernas buscan rehabilitar en forma temprana para una recuperación en menor tiempo. Las técnicas mínimamente invasivas son una opción para lograrlo.

Objetivo: Evaluar la capacidad de comenzar una rehabilitación y la carga de peso en el posoperatorio inmediato utilizando una técnica mínimamente invasiva sin nudos y la evolución a los 6 meses de la cirugía.

Materiales y Métodos: Se realizaron 10 reparaciones quirúrgicas de lesiones agudas del tendón de Aquiles con una técnica mínimamente invasiva sin nudo. Se utilizó el sistema combinado (PARS – SpeedBridgeTM original. A las 48 h se permitió la carga completa de forma progresiva, según tolerancia. Se evaluó el resultado final a los 6 meses utilizando el puntaje ATRS.

Resultados: En promedio los pacientes tardaron 14 días en deambular sin muletas. Todos comenzaron la rehabilitación con movilidad activa y pasiva del tobillo durante la primera semana posoperatoria. El puntaje ATRS promedio fue de 79 (rango 60-90).

Conclusión: Esta técnica ha demostrado ser una excelente opción quirúrgica en las lesiones agudas del tendón de Aquiles de media sustancia, pero no fue posible comenzar con la carga de peso inmediata debido al dolor o temor del paciente, pero sí con la rehabilitación dentro de la primera semana posquirúrgica.

Published: June 2021

La indemnidad del aparato extensor es fundamental para un correcto funcionamiento de una prótesis de codo. Se ha considerado que la deficiencia del tríceps es una contraindicación relativa para la artroplastia, porque produce una contractura en flexión y un déficit de extensión activa. Estas limitaciones pueden afectar significativamente la mejora funcional que la artroplastia total de codo produce. Ante una seudoartrosis de olécranon, la colocación de una prótesis total de codo se presenta como un problema complejo que resolver. El objetivo de este artículo es describir la técnica quirúrgica para la colocación de una prótesis total de codoen el contexto de una seudoartrosis de olécranon, y comunicar tres casos.

A Review of European Research on Content and Language Integrated Learning
Authors: Cimermanová Ivana
Published: June 2021

Introduction. Subjects’ integration in formal teaching can play an important role in addressing the issue of authentic and meaningful learning as opposed to rote memorisation. Content and language integrated learning has been the subject of educational studies for three decades. The scope of research is broad, and from the primary focus on foreign language performance, it has been slowly extended to the impact of Content and language integrated learning on content and mother tongue. The purpose of the research is to summarize selected research articles on Content and language integrated learning application and to estimate its summary average effect on content development in a group of students aged 10‒16. Materials and Methods. The article presents the systematic review of the studies published in the Web of Science database in the last decade (2010–2020) and surveys the selected empirical studies that focus on the impact of Content and language integrated learning implementation on the content subjects at primary and secondary schools. Sixteen studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in the analysis. Data from six studies were also statistically evaluated using Comprehensive meta analysis and RevMan software, and the synthesis is presented in the Results and Discussion parts. Results. Based on the 16 discussed studies’ results, Content and language integrated learning intervention produces positive added value; however, the statistical meta-analysis showed no statistically significant differences between the Content and language integrated learning and non-CLIL groups in their content knowledge and the results favouring non-CLIL groups. As the groups’ size differed in terms of absolute value, the pooled standard deviation was used to reflect the sample sizes and standard deviation were averaged with more weight given to the larger sample groups. Discussion and Conclusion The practical significance and prospects of the study lie in pointing out the benefits of Content and language integrated learning and stressing the importance of its inclusion in teacher training study programmes along with the development of pre-service teachers’ creativity, critical thinking and ability to create their materials.

Authors: Gribova Olga E. , Almazova Anna A.
Published: June 2021

Introduction. The level of formedness of text competence at secondary school in the aspect of understanding the text’s factual information ensures the successful grasping of the learning content. The purpose of the research was to identify the specifics of the functioning of linear deployment mechanisms and probabilistic forecasting among learners of 5–10th grade (form) with specific language impairment.
Материалы и методы. The modified close gap test method was used as the main research method at the level of the ascertaining experiment. The results of the close gap tests, filled by learners, were exposed to quantitative and qualitative analysis. The research was conducted by applying theoretical (interpretive) and empirical (ascertaining experiment based on author’s method) methods. The analytical stage involved the use of the method of correlation analysis, the mathematical processing was carried out with the help of one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA).
Results. Analysis of experimental data helped determine the close gap test strategies in adolescent students with specific language impairment. The qualitative and quantitative analysis of studentsʼ work was applied to determine three main groups of strategies for linear deployment and probabilistic forecasting: strategies for establishing semantic links at the level of the lexical component, a strategy for establishing links at the level of associations, and no strategy. Furthermore, the analysis of substitutes with regard to their compliance with grammatical requirements revealed the following typology of manifestations of agrammatism: the use of an inadequate part of speech, deficiencies of grammatical presentation in phrases, non-compliance of the grammatical form of the substitute with the requirements for the grammatical design of the sentence. Correlation analysis was applied to establish links between different types of close gap test strategies used by adolescents with specific language impairment, as well as their relationship with the levels of understanding the factual content of the text.
Discussion and Conclusion. The results obtained contribute to the development of developmental psycholinguistics, special pedagogy, speech therapy and school methods of speech development.
Studying the Normal Operation of Grain Harvesters within the Warranty Period
Authors: Komarov Vladimir A. , Kurashkin Mihail I.
Published: June 2021

Introduction. Grain harvesters are used for no more than two months within a year. They must have maximum operating reliability, since even short downtime during the harvesting period result in large crop losses. The purpose of the study is to identify the causes of combine harvester failures within the warranty period.
Materials and Methods. Identifying consequences of failures and ensuring the reliability of grain harvesters are based on an improved classification of failures. In the process of studying, there have been proposed the ways to solve the problem of combine harvester downtime based on the analysis of the time for grain harvester troubleshooting. The category of severity of failure consequences was taken into account.
Results. Through monitoring in the period from 2018 to 2020, there were found failures of units and systems of grain harvesters with low reliability indexes within the warranty period. Most of the failures (59.2%) were found in Russian-manufactured combines, of which operational failures are 55.9%, structural failures – 26.7%, and production failures – 17.4%. The general patterns of changes in the average time for combine troubleshooting have been determined. A geometric model of a detail for the trouble-free operation of combines (header auger shaft) was created. The finite element analysis (ANSYS) was used to identify parts, which are subject to maximum workload. There have been identified units and parts, which fail to function within the warranty period, because of design and technological defects.
Discussion and Conclusion. In order to reduce the time to find the consequences of failures, it is necessary to create a more extensive network of enterprises providing a wide range of services, improve the organization of technical service and expand direct links with the manufacturers of equipment in order to respond quickly and make the necessary design and technological decisions.
The Information Predictive Model of Creating Temperature and Humidity Conditions in Cow Barns
Authors: Vtoryi Valeryij F. , Vtoryi Sergei V. , Gordeev Vladislav V.
Published: June 2021

Introduction. Information-predictive modeling is an effective tool for optimizing the indoor climatic variables to make full use of cow potential. Noncompliance with barn climate requirements may result in 10–30% lower lactation capacity. The research aimed at creating an information model of indoor climate formation based on experimental findings.
Materials and Methods. A 24-hour measuring system of relevant climate variables with a 10-minutes data recording interval was designed. It included nine sensor units, three data recording/storing devices and a common power unit. Measurements took place in a dairy cow barn for 200 head in the Leningrad Region.
Results. According to the summer study results, certain areas in the cow barn at high relative humidity had Temperature Humidity Index >75, i.e. were unfavorable for animals. This period may last up to 18 hours a day. In the daytime at Temperature Humidity Index >80, the indoor environment might become critical and be accompanied by a drastic decrease in milk cow productivity. Correlation models for temperature conditions in a cow barn are obtained and their dependence on indoor and outdoor temperature and air humidity are calculated.
Discussion and Conclusion. An information predictive model was created to describe the formation of temperature and humidity conditions inside cow barns, depending on weather conditions. Under constant real-time database updating, the model allows monitoring the temperature and humidity in cow barns and forecasting these variables for the next few days. The relevant data are visualized in real-time on monitors and information panels for personnel and specialists supporting the timely managerial decisions to prevent critical situations associated with overheating or hypothermia of animals.

Published: June 2021

Aim of study: Most sprained lateral ankle ligaments heal uneventfully, but in some cases the ligament’s elastic function is not restored, leading to chronic ankle instability. Ultrasound shear wave elastography can be used to quantify the elasticity of musculoskeletal soft tissues; it may serve as a test of ankle ligament function during healing to potentially help differentiate normal from ineffective healing. The purpose of this study was to determine baseline shear wave velocity values for the lateral ankle ligaments in healthy male subjects, and to assess inter-observer reliability. Material and methods: Forty-six ankles in 23 healthy male subjects aged 20–40 years underwent shear wave elastography of the lateral ankle ligaments performed by two musculoskeletal radiologists. Each ligament was evaluated three times with the ankle relaxed by both examiners, and under stress by a single examiner. Mean shear wave velocity values were compared for each ligament by each examiner. Inter-observer agreement was evaluated. Results: The mean shear wave velocity at rest for the anterior talofibular ligament was 2.09 ± 0.3 (range 1.41–3.17); and for the calcaneofibular ligament 1.99 ± 0.36 (range 1.29–2.88). Good inter-observer agreement was found for the anterior talofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament shear wave velocity measurements with the ankle in resting position. There was a significant difference in mean shear wave velocities between rest and stressed conditions for both anterior talofibular ligament (2.09 m/s vs 3.21 m/s; p <0.001) and calcaneofibular ligament (1.99 m/s vs 3.42 m/s; p <0.0001). Conclusion: Shear wave elastography shows promise as a reproducible method to quantify ankle ligament stiffness. This study reveals that shear waves velocities of the normal lateral ankle ligaments increased with applied stress compared to the resting state.
Rules of jurisdiction in the new Hungarian private international law
Authors: Gombos Katalin
Published: June 2021

On 1 January 2018, a new act entered into force in Hungary. This act is the new code of private international law in Hungary. The basic purpose of this article is to present the jurisdictional rules of the new law. In the description I discuss how the new act differs from the rules of the old code. In addition, I focus on international and European trends in private international law. I also examine the extent to which the new Hungarian code complies with these trends, as well as discussing the peculiarities of the Hungarian regulation. The new Code uses the concept of jurisdiction as a rule for the ‘international distribution’ of cases and in the sense of public international law. Therefore, I also address in this article the definition of jurisdiction and other conceptual issues, the doctrines of immunity and the description of the jurisdictional system of the Code. I present the relationship between international, European and Hungarian rules which are relevant in private international law. In addition, I provide an overview of the novel system of jurisdictional rules in the Code.

Published: June 2021

Artikeln undersöker rättegångsrapportering i tyska, österrikiska och svenska tidningar med fokus på hur medieringen av en social konflikt sker. Hur löser journalister den komplexa uppgiften att rapportera om rättsfallet och att återge förhandlingen i en nyhetsartikel? Vi närmar oss den här frågan från ett intermedialt perspektiv och undersöker rättegångsrapportering som resultat av en medietransformation (Elleström 2014). Genom att granska vilka aspekter av en rättsprocess som representeras och hur den ursprungliga konflikten transmedieras kan vi analysera hur informationen överförs från en kommunikativ situation (rättegång) till en annan (artikel). Analysen visar hur journalister hanterar och kommunicerar komplexiteten med omtvistade berättelser. Medan tyska och österrikiska rättegångsreportage fokuserar på konflikten mellan motstridiga berättelser, skildrar svensk rättegångsrapportering hur den juridiska processen hanterar konflikten. Resultaten återspeglar till viss del skillnader i rättssystemen, skilda journalistiska konventioner och förutsättningar för rapportering. Det framträder även kommunikationsstrategier som journalister använder för att skapa förståelse för en komplex situation där det är omtvistat vad som är sant.

The Ocean Reference Station at 20°S, 85°W under the stratus clouds west of northern Chile is being maintained to provide ongoing climate-quality records of surface meteorology, air-sea fluxes of heat, freshwater, and momentum, and of upper ocean temperature, salinity, and velocity variability. The Stratus Ocean Reference Station (ORS Stratus) is supported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Climate Observation Program. It is recovered and redeployed annually, with past cruises that have come between October and May. This cruise was conducted on the Chilean research vessel Cabo de Hornos. During the 2018 cruise on the Cabo de Hornos to the ORS Stratus site, the primary activities were the recovery of the previous (Stratus 16) WHOI surface mooring, deployment of the new Stratus 17 WHOI surface mooring, in-situ calibration of the buoy meteorological sensors by comparison with instrumentation installed on the ship, CTD casts near the moorings. The Stratus 17 had parted from its anchor site on January 4 2018, so its recovery was done in two separate operations: first the drifting buoy with mooring line under it, then the bottom part still attached to the anchor. Surface drifters and ARGO floats were also launched along the track.
COVID-19 and Painful Temporomandibular Disorders: what does the dentist need to know?

ABSTRACT COVID-19 outbreak may lead to major impacts in applied oral sciences. Remarkably, it could be expected that factors associated to pandemic may lead to a greater risk of developing, worsening and perpetuating TMD and its associated risk factors. This non systematic literature review aims to discuss how the COVID-19 pandemic can influence the emergence, maintenance or worsening of TMD worldwide. During epidemics: the number of people whose mental health is affected tends to be greater than the number affected by the infection, and fear increases anxiety and stress levels in healthy individuals; chronic pain patients probably not receipt important treatments; overuse of medications becomes frequent; there are manifestation of unconscious oral parafunctional habits and poor sleep quality. All these facts represent risk factors common to TMD. Dentists should be aware of these issues and adapt their practices to properly diagnose and treat these patients within a multifactorial approach, increasing the quality of life of these individuals.

ABSTRACT Lower third molar extraction is a common procedure in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons routine. However, even though this procedure is frequent, sometimes its course is unexpected. In this scenario, some developed classifications help to predict the difficulty level for such extractions. Objective This study aimed to verify the association of Pell and Gregory classifications I and II and surgical difficulty through lower third molar extractions. Methods Voluntary patients from the Dentistry Course of the State University of Rio Grande do Norte, between 16 and 45 years of age, who met the inclusion criteria, had their third molars classified according to Pell and Gregory. Results A total of 42 elements were extracted. There were no statistically significant differences for the correlation of Pell and Gregory classification with the surgical difficulty considering the variables such as surgery time (p=0.419), osteotomy needs (p=0.428) and number of anesthetic tubes (0.939). As for the need for odontosection, only when comparing the teeth classified as AI and IIA, the difference in favor of AI elements was statistically significant (p=0.008). There were no accidents or complications. Conclusions Pell and Gregory classification was not a good predictor of surgical difficulty, and further studies on this subject are recommended.
Juridismo, Memorias y Subversión: Un análisis político dela Sentencia de la “Megacausa La Perla-Campo de La Ribera” (Córdoba, Argentina)

Resumen Este artículo lleva adelante un análisis político y discursivo de la Sentencia de la Megacausa de la Megacausa “La Perla-Campo de La Ribera” desde un enfoque crítico y posmarxista del discurso jurídico. El argumento principal del trabajo esque la Sentencia pone en cuestión y se aparta del juridismo dominante en el campo jurídico, dando lugar a la palabra de los/las sujetos con derecho al testimonio y constituyéndose, de tal modo, en un acto ético-político.
Uma revisão de Punição e Estrutura Social e Cárcere e Fábrica à luz da teoria crítica do valor
Authors: Vaz André
Published: June 2021

Resumo O artigo consiste na revisão de duas obras paradigmáticas da criminologia crítica que analisam o surgimento e o estabelecimento da prisão como modalidade punitiva típica da modernidade: Punição e Estrutura Social, de Rusche e Kirchheimer, e Cárcere e Fábrica, de Melossi e Pavarini. Em específico, escrutina-se, à luz da teoria crítica do valor, o tipo de sustentação no marco teórico materialista sobre o qual elas se desenvolvem.
Direito à saúde, jurisdição constitucional e estado de emergência constitucional: uma perspectiva crítica da pandemia
Authors: Silva Diogo Bacha e , Bahia Alexandre Gustavo Melo Franco Moraes
Published: June 2021

Resumo O artigo busca explorar o impacto jurídico da pandemia do COVID-19 em nosso sistema constitucional. Partindo da diferenciação entre estado de exceção e estado de emergência constitucional, a questão do enfrentamento da pandemia deve ter uma resposta dentro dos quadros estabelecidos pela Constituição de 1988. Além do mais, as respostas dos poderes públicos trouxeram à tona qual o federalismo que pretendemos proteger e concretizar a partir da repartição das competências. A resposta é um federalismo assimétrico e descentralizado para o enfrentamento das dificuldades sanitárias do coronavírus. Por último, a pandemia possibilitou um repensar crítico no próprio direito à saúde e como a tradição jurídica hegemônica o encara em uma perspectiva colonial.
Populistas e autoritários? Debates sobre usos do conceito
Authors: Câmara Heloisa Fernandes
Published: June 2021

Resumo O conceito de populismo ressurgiu como fator explicativo do processo de declínio democrático em curso em vários países. Este artigo retoma parte da tradição teórica histórica e política de pesquisa sobre populismo para questionar a adequação de identificação entre autoritarismo e populismo. Defende-se que, na medida em que populismo explica o conflito sobre o papel do povo na política, permite aprimoramento democrático.
Crits e crips: conectando estudos críticos de deficiência e estudos jurídicos críticos
Authors: Araújo Luana Adriano
Published: June 2021

Resumo Busco, nesta investigação, entroncar os estudos críticos jurídicos e de deficiência a partir da convergência entre os conceitos de trashing e cripping. Minha hipótese é a de que to trash law também consiste em to crip law – “cripficar” e “trashissizar” são meios desestabilizatórios dos cenários que representam norma e deficiência como conceitos pacíficos e não-conflituosos. A “formulação-teste” aqui iniciada é a de que o intuito de ambas as ferramentas se finca em um interesse comum, cuja aparência disruptiva guarda uma possibilidade latente de atualização permanente dos ímpetos revolucionários prospectivos.
Latina and Latino Critical Legal Theory: LatCrit Theory, Praxis and Community.
Authors: Gonzalez Marc Tizoc , Matambanadzo Saru , Vélez Martínez Sheila I.
Published: June 2021

Abstract LatCrit theory is a relatively recent genre of critical “outsider jurisprudence” – a category of contemporary scholarship including critical legal studies, feminist legal theory, critical race theory, critical race feminism, Asian American legal scholarship and queer theory. This paper overviews LatCrit’s foundational propositions, key contributions, and ongoing efforts to cultivate new generations of ethical advocates who can systemically analyze the sociolegal conditions that engender injustice and intervene strategically to help create enduring sociolegal, and cultural, change. The paper organizes this conversation highlighting Latcrit’s theory, community and praxis.
The early behaviour of concretes in large dams
Authors: Shaw Quentin Henry Wenham
Published: June 2021

Surface gradient and mass gradient thermal effects have always substantially complicated the design and construction of large concrete dams. Despite generic rules of thumb and systems to control allowable thermal gradients being developed largely empirically during the early to mid-twentieth century consequential cracking has been relatively common in large concrete dams. While this is primarily a reflection of difficulties inherent to adhering to the related requirements, realistically, a similar level of causative effect can be attributed to a poor understanding of the associated early concrete behaviour mechanisms. Through back-analysis of roller compacted concrete (RCC) and particularly RCC arch dams, a more realistic picture of the actual early thermo-mechanical behaviour of concrete was progressively developed, identifying different behaviour for different concrete compositions and particularly different cementitious materials and supplementary cementitious materials. The key behaviour parameter was defined as a stress–relaxation creep. The related findings have implications across all types of large-scale mass concrete structures and impact the way in which we should think of concrete materials and structural composition and even how we should approach mix design for mass concrete.
Mendelian Randomization Analysis as a Tool to Gain Insights into Causes of Diseases: A Primer
Authors: Tin Adrienne , Köttgen Anna
Published: June 2021

Many Mendelian randomization (MR) studies have been published recently, with inferences on the causal relationships between risk factors and diseases that have potential implications for clinical research. In nephrology, MR methods have been applied to investigate potential causal relationships of traditional risk factors, lifestyle factors, and biomarkers from omics technologies with kidney function or CKD. This primer summarizes the basic concepts of MR studies, highlighting methods used in recent applications, and emphasizes key elements in conducting and reporting of MR studies that are important for interpreting the results.
