La campagna per il Referendum Costituzionale 2020 e la comunicazione antipopulista su Facebook: un’applicazione di Content Analysis dagli esordi accademici del primo Crowdtangle
Authors: Punziano Gabriella , Marrazzo Francesco , Acampa Suania
Published: May 2024

Closing free access to online platform APIs has changed social research in digital spaces. Access to data is now managed and regulated exclusively by proprietary platforms, which have shared various tools to data extraction with precise rules to data access. Several scholars and researchers have many doubts about these rules and the possibility that these tools can significantly support research in the field of social sciences. This work was born from the interest of testing one of the tools made available to researchers by the Facebook platform called CrowdTangle and proposes a thrust into the epistemological problems and the methodological implications of its use in the investigation of social phenomena in digital spaces. The object of the study is the Italian 2020 Constitutional Referendum. What emerges from the work is how much the tool used for data collection forces researchers to reflect methodologically in order to identify its potential and pitfalls. Starting from these reflections, a scalable analytical model based on Content Analysis is proposed from a double perspective: quantitative automated, and interpretative hermeneutic. The results obtained help to overcome the pitfalls of the collection tool through a combined perspective and merged into an exploratory application of analysis of multiple correspondences in the end. The analysis of multiple correspondences was an indispensable step to arrive at the definition of latent dimensions in anti-populist communication.

‘È un’opzione che ho valutato da diverso tempo’
Authors: Cuzzocrea Valentina , Bertoni Fabio
Published: May 2024

This contribution discusses the nuances of vulnerability that emerge from the relationship with the territory of secondary school students in a rural area of Sardinia. The article confronts the most updated definitions of vulnerability with current debates on youth, transitions to work and transitions to adulthood scholarship. Part of a wider project on the PTCO (still called in the narratives of the students with the old name of ‘alternance’), it deconstructs dimensions of vulnerability offering a glimpse on the difficulties that it entails in the specific case of a territory with a strong vocation for agriculture and viniculture, where traditional models keep their centrality in socialization processes. In discussing the empirical material, we go in depth into three students’ narratives.
Memoria diabolica. Interpretare i conflitti sul passato, tra cancel culture e mutamento sociale
Authors: Apollonio Andrea
Published: May 2024

The article examines the social and political importance of current conflicts surrounding public memory. It suggests that these manifestations are often characterized by assigning alternative values and meanings to collective memories, rather than enforcing historical censorship or perpetuating destructive forgetting. In a second passage, the article advances a more general idea and explores its implications: we are witnessing a global movement of political reactivation of the past and democratization of history, which consists of the recent and sudden emergence of the memories of a galaxy of groups and actors ‘for whom rehabilitating their past is part and parcel of reaffirming their identity’ (Nora 2002). What explains these fluctuations in the relationship between memory and social change? What new entrepreneurs break into the structure of participation in the definition of institutional memory? To what extent does this dynamic stand in discontinuity or continuity with the past?
Un fenomeno con nomi diversi. La cancel culture, tra intersezionalità e marxismo
Authors: Montesano Bruno
Published: May 2024

In the public debate, on the one hand, the so-called cancel culture (CC) is stigmatised as an attack against the Western tradition and the rationality of dialogue, on the other, it is associated with the oblivion of material issues, substituted by identity claims. These two readings can be opposed by a third that frames the events subsumed under CC in a positive way as ‘intersectionality’, and a fourth that, while appreciating its purpose, challenges its liberal grammar of rights. CC, identity politics and intersectionality – although they identify both broader and more specific sets of problems – can thus be read as the names that different scholars give to the same dynamics. After briefly reviewing some of the literature on the topic, the paper will focus on the conflict between economic instances and identity, first by recalling some reflections from the Marxist tradition on the subject of ‘race’ and gender, and then by looking at two contemporary Marxist texts, by Asad Haider and Ashley Bohrer. With a different stance on intersectionality, but criticising economicist determinism, the two authors reason about ways of composing social heterogeneity in a political project. This allows for an original reading of some of the issues involved in the discussion about CC.
La cancel culture e il senso della storia
Authors: Flores Marcello
Published: May 2024

The essay intends to analyze the phenomenon of the destruction of statues, and more generally of cancel culture, through the prism of the relationship between memory and history, between political, moral and identity needs of the present, especially on the part of some discriminated groups, and the need to contribute to an understanding of history with all its complexities and contradictions, without reducing it to the binary and identity choice of being for or against, as often happens when collective memory predominates.
Comunità vegetali ed enclavi botaniche, eterotopie a confronto
Authors: Sabbion Paola
Published: May 2024

Phytosociology embraces a systemic approach, acknowledging the crucial interactions between plants and their surrounding environment. However, this discipline has had different orientations and applications over time, influenced by socio-cultural changes. Some aspects of the discourse around plant communities, particularly those involving the relationship between ethics and aesthetics, can give rise to a historically informed critical perspective. The development of scientific methodologies and the discoveries that have propelled its advancement are intertwined with historical events, artistic and cultural expressions. Consequently, a narrative of continuous evolution has emerged, in which architecture has played a role, employing the landscape project as a tool for articulating its voice.

Weetnietkunde. Ontspannen omgaan met onzekerheid en ongemak (voor leiders en andere vakmensen)
Authors: Timmermans Marian , de Vos Willem
Published: May 2024

Dit is geen lege dummy over Weetnietkunde. Het is een serieuze, nieuwsgierige ontdekkingstocht over een opvallend onderwerp. De werkelijkheid duwt ons met de neus op feiten die we niet kennen of niet begrijpen. Dat ervaren we in ons werk en privé en het voelt ongemakkelijk. De meeste mensen hebben een hekel aan onzekerheid, ze houden van controle. Maar als je onzekerheid en niet-weten verbeten te lijf gaat, wordt het alleen maar beroerder en soms zelfs overweldigend. Onze zoektocht kan helpen, de complexe wereld waarin we leven en werken met meer ontspanning tegemoet te gaan. Het herkennen van mechanismen en patronen waar we in stappen – als individu en als groep of team – is een eerste stap. Vervolgens zoeken en vinden we mogelijkheden, om die reacties te vervangen door een andere kijk. Dat maakt het mogelijk met een open blik in de werkelijkheid te zijn zoals die zich aandient, in plaats van in de werkelijkheid die je graag zou willen. Wij menen dat dit gezond is, voor wie je ook bent en wat je ook doet. Niet weten is een blijvend thema. Dit boek nodigt je uit actief de Weetnietkunde te beoefenen!

Authors: Matvienko Oksana , Tsyvin Mykhailo
Published: May 2024

The article substantiates the necessity of training document experts as specialists in the protection of information with limited access.
Contradictions have been identified that actualize the introduction of such specialization in document studies education.
It is emphasized that the requirements for the activity of a specialist in the organization of the protection of classified information, put forward by organizations working in the field of national security of the state, highlight the feasibility of highlighting the specialization of the document science and management profile in this field.
It was found that the content of the activity of a document expert, as a specialist in the protection of information with limited access, is within the limits of functional specialization complexes: document and information resources — digital technologies — information security management — communications.
It is emphasized that the fundamental knowledge in the field of document and information activities and document science for specialization in the field of information protection with limited access should not only be formally supplemented with a list of relevant disciplines related to confidential information and secret record keeping. "Entry" of the future specialist in the field of knowledge of information, including at the level of national security, should be accompanied by an appropriate set of educational disciplines, which would form a student's idea of the future field of activity at the necessary and sufficient level.
Conclusions were made regarding the need for the development of a scientific and pedagogical school for the training of a document expert as a specialist in the protection of information with limited access, and the institutio­nalization of the subject field of their training requires, from a scientific and methodical point of view, the active involvement of representatives of scientific and pedagogical schools in the field of information security in the system of such training. as well as practitioners of educational activities in the field of information security and information protection, including in the national security system, in periods of emergency situations and a special legal regime of martial law, construction and improvement of secure document circulation technology.

Cognitive social communication in a single media system of society
Authors: Ilganayeva Valentyna
Published: May 2024

The article discusses the conditions for the formation of cognitive communication. It is interpreted as a sign of the final stage of the formation of a unified media system of society. In the article is noted that the emergence of artificial intelligence technologies change the usual ideas about the implementation of communication. Scientific and cultural prerequisites for the transition to new rules and norms for using texts as units of communication in a single cognitive network of the media space are considered. There is an increased need for cooperative cognitive activity, which corresponds to the need for a technique for performing citation in the form of borrowing, absorbing thoughts and other cognitive forms. New approaches to the interpretation of the text give certain grounds for this. In the implementation of cognitive communication, it is important not just to be in one information discourse, but also to be able to bring communicators closer to the convergence of opinions at the level of interpretations and intentions in the public consciousness and professional circles.

Published: May 2024

Introduction: Thyroidectomy is a common surgical procedure performed for a variety of thyroid disorders. NLR injury is a dreaded complication during thyroidectomy and is considered a challenge even by the most experienced surgeons. Case Report: A thirty-two-year-old female patient with no significant pathological history was admitted for management GMNH. Cervical ultrasonography revealed a multiheteronodular goitre classified as TIRADS 4, the largest nodule measuring four centimetres on the left, with no cervical adenopathy. Thyroid workup was normal. Thyroid cytology of nodule number 1 was consistent with follicular neoplasm (Bethesda stage four). A total thyroidectomy was performed, and a bilateral trifurcation of the two recurrent laryngeal nerves in the tracheoesophageal groove was found. Conclusion: Damage to the NLR is the most serious complication of thyroid surgery. Anatomical variations in the NLR increase the risk of iatrogenic nerve damage. Bilateral trifurcation of the recurrent laryngeal nerve is a relatively rare anatomical variation that should not be overlooked when locating this nerve for surgery.

Published: May 2024

Background: Transphyseal fracture of the distal humerus (TFDH) is a rare injury in young children. Clinical and radiological examinations can be unclear, leading to delayed diagnosis. The absence of the ossification center of the capitellum complicates the radiological diagnosis and is often reported as an elbow dislocation. Case Report: A 1-year-old boy with a left elbow injury following a crush by a cart presented to our department with polytrauma. Radiographs showed a medial displacement of the radius and ulna relative to the humerus with a metaphyseal spike, suggestive of TFDH. Surgical reduction and fixation with Kirschner wires were performed, with good recovery at 6 months. Conclusion: Awareness of TFDH is crucial for proper diagnosis. Radiographic findings of posteromedial displacement suggest TFDH, which can be confirmed with ultrasound.

Authors: Sindhura Dr. T. Ramya , Shravyya Dr. G. Tharuna , Kumar Dr. Barla BSV Satya , Lakshmi Dr. A. Bhagya
Published: May 2024

Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a rare malignant tumor, which accounts for <5% of all thyroid malignancies, derived from parafollicular C cells. Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, which is the most common cause of hypothyroidism is an autoimmune disease. Many studies have been done in association with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, Papillary thyroid carcinoma and thyroid lymphomas. Very few cases of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis with coexisting medullary thyroid carcinoma have been reported, because of its rarity. MTC produces various tumor biomarkers mainly Calcitonin, Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and Chromogranin A. For determining the severity of the condition, preoperative serum calcitonin and CEA values are crucial. Postoperatively, Serum levels of calcitonin and CEA can be used to assess for distant metastases and recurrence. Here we present a rare case of Medullary thyroid carcinoma coexisting with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.

The aim of this research is to analyze and evaluate various research findings regarding the effect of the Bosu Ball training method on improving athletes' balance. This type of research is a literature review. Search for this article through the database on Google Scholar with the keywords 'bosu ball' and 'balance'. Based on this search, 5 articles were found (2022 – 2023) that matched the keywords and were worthy of analysis and evaluation. The results of the literature review analysis show that the Bosu Ball training method has consistently proven effective in improving athletes' balance. Then form flexible exercises using a bosu ball, such as using a circuit or combining it with other types of exercise. However, based on the evaluation of the discussion of each research result, it seems that training using the bosu ball is only an additional exercise or not as the main exercise. So the recommendation from the results of this research is to apply bosu ball training by combining other types of training that have characteristics such as strength training, speed training or endurance training, and you can also modify the number of sets or repetitions. The hope is that the physical abilities of other athletes will increase. Further research is also needed to strengthen these findings and further explore the potential benefits of Bosu Ball in improving athletes' physical abilities other than balance as well as the positive impact on athlete performance in various types of sports.

Authors: Rodrigue Bou , Pacôme N’Go Kouadio , Fatoumata Diané , Augustin Kangah N’da Kouassi , Marius Kprié Koffi , Antoine Tako Némé
Published: May 2024

Alchornea cordifolia extract is widely used as ethnomedicine in Ivory coast to treat various ailments related to bacterial, fungal, parasitic and inflammatory disorders, infertility problems, among other. Here, the objective was to evaluate some long lasting neuroprotective properties of Alchornea cordifolia extract against a rat’s model of LPS-induced early-life neuroinflammation. The neuroinflammation was induced with a single dose of LPS (1mg/kg, i.p) in neonatal rats (postnatal day 4) or PBS rats (1ml/100g, vehicle). Six hours later, some LPS rats were treated either with minocycline (50 mg/kg, i.p) or Alchornea cordifolia extract (200 or 400 mg/kg, p.o) for 14 consecutive days. Then, rats were followed carefully till adulthood (P 90) for the evaluation of cognitive behavioral status and oxidative damage level in hippocampus and prefrontal cortex. Results showed that the treatment with Alchornea cordifolia extract (200 or 400 mg/kg) attenuated LPS-induced deficits of spatial learning and memory (Y-maze and Morris water maze) and recognition memory (Object recognition test). However, only dose of 200 mg/kg of Alchornea cordifolia extract reduced significantly lipid peroxidation through MDA content and enhanced the enzymatic antioxydant SOD level in hippocampus and prefrontal cortex. On the whole, the threshold dose 200 mg/kg of Alchornea cordifolia demonstrated long lasting beneficial neuroprotective effects against LPS-induced early-life neuroinflammation incomparable to reference molecule minocycline. This findings suggest that Alchornea cordifolia rich in quercitrin bioactive need further biochemical and histopathology studies before promising as efficient therapeutic agent against neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases.

Published: May 2024

Introduction: Orthodontic management of patients with cleft lip and palate is a tedious process requiring meticulous treatment planning. However, in patients with a fairly good facial profile, non-surgical management using orthodontic treatment alone can produce astounding results in correction of malocclusion and to achieve a pleasing smile. A properly executed orthodontic treatment enhances not only the smile, but also the masticatory efficiency, speech and overall quality of life of the patients with cleft lip and palate. Methods: This case series describes orthodontic management of three patients with cleft lip and palate who have been treated by distinct treatment modalities. Results: An outline of the different orthodontic treatments along with possible interdisciplinary management has been explained in this case series. Conclusion: We therefore understand that in patients with cleft lip and palate who have a reasonably good facial profile, complete orthodontic therapy with individualized treatment plan is vital to provide good physiological, functional and aesthetic outcomes.

UNDERSTANDING JALODARA: ASCITES IN AYURVEDA – A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS
Authors: Dr. Rashmita Tiga  , Dr.Pragya P. Mallik  , Dr. Bharatilata Acharya
Published: May 2024

Jalodara is a disease afflicting Udakavaha srotas. In Ayurveda, Ascites aligns with the concept of Jalodara. Ascites, characterized by the accumulation of free fluid in the peritoneal cavity, is commonly observed in decompensated cirrhotic states. Despite contemporary medical treatments offering temporary relief, ascitic pathology remains largely unresolved. Ayurvedic approaches present a promising alternative for managing ascites, particularly through the lens of Jalodara, a subtype of Udara roga. According to Ayurveda, the management involves Nitya Virechana (purgative therapy), deepana-pachana (enhancing digestive fire), bala vriddhi (strengthening), and correction of hepatic and splenic functions, coupled with dietary regimens. Generalized abdominal distension, a hallmark of Udara roga, is attributed to imbalances in Saman vayu, Apana vayu, Pachak pitta, Ranjak pitta, and Kledaka Kapha, primarily stemming from Mandagni (weak digestive fire). Notably, the progression of Udara roga into Jalodara underscores the significance of addressing underlying factors. While liver dysfunction remains a leading cause of ascites, Ayurvedic principles emphasize the pivotal role of dietary discipline, with milk (Kshira) being advocated as a Pathya-Ahara (therapeutic food) for Jalodara. Integrating Ayurvedic strategies alongside conventional treatments may offer a holistic approach to managing ascites, providing both symptomatic relief and addressing underlying pathology.

Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis: Successes, challenges, and the road ahead
Authors: Worku Dominic
Published: May 2024

Tuberculosis (TB) is a leading cause of infection-related mortality globally and imposes a significant burden on morbidity among survivors. While progress has been achieved toward the World Health Organization’s End TB goal, it has been slower than anticipated and, in part, reversed by the impact of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 pandemic. Multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) presents a formidable challenge, characterized by catastrophic costs, reduced treatment success rates, and increased loss to follow-up, leading to its perpetuation in local communities and the risk of onward transmission. Given this, the need to reshape services and refine management in a cost-effective manner is of paramount importance, particularly in developing countries where the majority of cases reside. In this short piece, we discuss the economic impact of MDR-TB and how this impact can be mitigated through several methods, including decentralized models of care.
