Alarming attitudes and misconceptions regarding psychiatry
Authors: Muhammad Wasim  , Mahad Mirza Baig  , Dua Bushra
Published: September 2023

Dear Respected Editor, we would like to highlight the level of neglect concerning to knowledge of psychiatry especially in developing countries like Pakistan. Even while crafting this correspondence, our search for literature investigating the state of knowledge about psychiatry produced a surprisingly low number of results (aside from surveys of general mental health). Of the few which we could find, an alarming lack of knowledge was evident.  One such survey-based investigation found that most medical school student respondents believed the aetiology of psychiatric illness to be from “excess emotions,” and an astonishing 27 out of the 164 medical students polled believed the etiology to be either “past sins” or “evil spirits.” 1 Other publications in recent years have mostly attempted to address prevailing myths present in society through reviews seeking to dispel misconceptions.2
Therefore, the leaders in the field of psychiatry have to optimize theirpublic outreach methods to renovate this discipline’s public image. While it is important to consider the specific cultural influences that have had a hand in shaping stigmas and their consequences, looking towards successful campaigns abroad can be s an important source of inspiration when forming a similar approach to implement in Pakistan. Examples of successful psychiatric awareness campaigns can be found in countries such as the United States and Germany.3
Moreover, it is important to remember that to capture the esteem of our society’s most influential figures, more scientific rigour must be applied to the field of psychiatry. Hence, more publications should be made which document the successful treatment and various presentations of psychiatric illnesses. A consistently renewing wealth of scientific literature to demonstrate the patterns which have emerged over the last few centuries in psychiatry are essential for dispelling misinformation.4
Despite significant progress over the last few years, psychiatry shall continue to prove challenging to promote in more mainstream sources of information unless existing social barriers are addressed. The reverse seems equally plausible in that pre-existing social stigmas tend to prevent patients from seeking care or disclosing case information to providers. Therefore, both social reform and an emphasis on scientific exploration are necessary to ensure the continued growth of confidence in psychiatric practice.
Household air pollution: A dire need of awareness in Pakistan
Authors: Khan Muhammad Sohaib , Khan Ayesha Ahmed
Published: September 2023

Dear Editor,
Household Air Pollution [HAP] has proven to be associated with an increased risk of acquiring asthma, lung cancer, pulmonary tuberculosis, and acute respiratory infections in adults and children, along with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease [COPD], cerebrovascular disease, ischemic heart disease, low birth weight, and stillbirth [1]. This pollution is caused primarily by the absence of clean fuels, which includes electricity, biogas, natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), solar, or alcohol fuels. Owing to the absence of clean fuels, individuals resort to the use of biomass to meet their needs, exposing themselves to the detrimental effects of biomass usage. Unfortunately, Pakistan is one of the worst-faring victims of this predicament. As of 2020, only 49.3% of Pakistanis primarily relied on clean fuels and technologies for cooking [2]. With only 26% of rural areas having access to clean fuels, traditional, inefficient three-stone stoves for biomass combustion are typical in rural areas[2][3]. Such stoves expel poisonous gasses, including Nitrogen oxides, Carbon monoxide, and formaldehyde, in addition to several toxic organic compounds depending on the type of biomass used, all detrimental to human health [4]. In urban areas, especially in winter, widespread gas shortages are prevalent, restricting an unknown number of citizens to biomass combustion for their day-to-day purposes. In both scenarios, the harms of HAP are imminent. Unfortunately, using gas stoves in poorly ventilated areas also shows milder effects of HAP [5].
Alarmingly, despite the adverse impact and the high prevalence of HAP, the matter remains neglected, with only very few studies connecting the above-stated health risks with the Pakistani population, evaluating the burden Pakistan bears because of HAP, and assessing the correct strategies for intervention. Such studies would result in implementing specific research-backed mitigation strategies customized to be specifically applicable to different socioeconomic backgrounds and regions of Pakistan, for example, efficient ventilatory systems relevant to Pakistani houses designed to reduce HAP.
In the meantime, examples of general policies include, but are not limited to, television advertisements, awareness drives, and allotting larger budgets towards cleaner fuel provision. For people utilizing primitive three-stone stoves, a plancha stove, comprising simply a stove and a chimney, can also be provided. The usage of such stoves is associated with a significantly reduced exposure to HAP [6]. Individually, when operating stoves for any purpose, it is crucial to prioritize ventilation.

Manchester City’s Start of the Offensive Phase: A Lag-Sequential Analysis
Authors: SCİCLUNA James , KERR-CUMBO Renzo , GÖRAL Kemal , ŞENEL Ender
Published: September 2023

Research on the playing patterns of Manchester City, particularly under Pep Guardiola's guidance, is limited. Existing studies do not investigate the associations between the offensive phase's initial actions (interceptions, tackles, defensive behavior followed by a pass) and other elements of the attacking phase, such as pitch space positions (zones) and goals. This study goes beyond subjective observation and applies lag-sequential analysis on Manchester City's 2019-2020 UEFA Champions League group stage matches. Behaviors were recorded using the SoccerEye Observational Instrument and software. The data was analyzed using the Sequential Data Interchange Standard-Generalized Sequential Querier (SDIS-GSEQ) and Microsoft Excel. Of the 417 offensive phase starts, 30.7% began with an interception, 8.2% with a tackle, and 29.5% with defensive behavior followed by a pass. Zone 5 (central mid-defensive sector) had a positive association (z=4.1) with interceptions, while zone 8 (central mid-offensive sector) had a positive association (z=2.67) with defensive behavior followed by a pass. Zones 3 (right defensive sector) and 12 (right offensive sector) showed a positive association with tackles (z=2.96 and z=3.36, respectively). Interceptions (z=-2.61) and defensive behavior followed by a pass (z=-4.46) were inhibited in zone 2. Starting an attack with a tackle may also result in a goal in Lags 7 and 8 (z=2.15, z=2.54, respectively).

El concepto de aburrimiento en Kierkegaard
Authors: Peña Arroyave Alejandro , Rodríguez Yésica , Uriel Rodríguez Pablo
Published: September 2023

El concepto y la experiencia del aburrimiento son centrales en la autoconcepción estética de la vida desarrollada por el pseudónimo A. En este escrito presentamos un análisis del concepto dividiéndolo en tres momentos: en el primero se analiza, desde algunos de los Diapsálmata, la experiencia del aburrimiento como ruptura del vínculo entre hombre y mundo. En el segundo momento, a partir de El más desdichado, se aborda la vivencia del aburrimiento en su relación con el tiempo. Y, en el tercer momento, se indaga, desde el ensayo La rotación de los cultivos, por la respuesta que propone el esteta A como salida al aburrimiento.

Sağlık sektöründe çalışanların iş ve yaşamları arasındaki dengeyi sağlayamamaları presenteeism davranışlarına sebep olmakta ve bu da verimlilik kaybına neden olarak maliyetleri artırmaktadır. Sağlık çalışanlarının iş yaşam dengesi ile presenteeism arasındaki ilişkinin belirlenmesi amaçlanan bu çalışma tanımlayıcı tipte kesitsel bir araştırmadır. Araştırmanın örneklemini İstanbul ili sınırları içerisindeki bir kamu hastanesinde çalışan 205 sağlık çalışanı oluşturmuştur. Çalışmanın evrenini ilgili dönemde hastanede çalışan 386 sağlık çalışanı oluşturmaktadır. Evrenin geniş olması ve tamamına ulaşmanın imkânsızlığı nedeniyle örnekleme yoluna gidilmiştir. Araştırma örneklemine girecek birey sayısı, evren sayısının bilindiği durumlardaki örnekleme formülü kullanılarak %5 hata payı ile en az 189 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Verilerin toplanmasında Kişisel Bilgi Formu, YS Presenteeism ölçeği ve Yeni İş Yaşam Dengesi ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Araştırmadan elde edilen verilere göre iş yaşam dengesi ile presenteeism davranışı arasında negatif yönlü bir ilişki olduğu tespit edilmiştir. İş yaşam dengesi durumları ile cinsiyet, medeni durum ve işini sevme durum düzeylerini karşılaştırmak için yapılan t-Testi sonucuna göre medeni durum ve işini sevme durumları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık tespit edilmiştir. Sağlık çalışanlarının presenteeism davranışlarında, demografik özelliklerine göre farklılıkları tespit etmek için gerçekleştirilen t-Testi sonuçlarına göre medeni durum ve işine severek yapma durumlarında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık tespit edilmiş olup cinsiyet değişkenine göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık tespit edilmemiştir. Bununla birlikte sağlık çalışanlarının prsenteeism davranışını gösterme oranı meslekte çalışma süresi arttıkça artmaktadır. Sonuç olarak iş yaşam dengesinin presenteeisme %23 oranında etki ettiği tespit edilmiştir.
Development of Perceived Psychological Contract Violations (PPCV): A Theoretical Study
Authors: Ahuja Sanya
Published: September 2023

In order to survive in this constantly changing and transforming  environment, a business requires agility and a rapid response technique.  One heuristic technique that can be focused upon to embrace the  said change and bring about a transformation is the understanding  of psychological contracts as well as their violations. Psychological  contracts are “intangible” contracts that exist at a place of work.  Perceived Psychological Contract Violations (PPCV) is a concept that  helps to identify and explain the feeling of anger and disappointment  that employees face when their needs are not met by the employer.  PPCV has two types – Reneging and Incongruence. The purpose of  this paper is to develop a theoretical study indicating the identification  and development of psychological contracts at the workplace, the  subsequently developed perceived psychological contract violations  (PPCV), as well as to further explain their types. Efforts have been  made to present a thorough study of literature and to brief the results  of the same so that there is a better understanding of the given terms.  Findings and implications of this framework have been discussed in  detail and suggestions for further research have been given.

Regular Death: Reading the Funeral and Imaginative Practice
Authors: Schell Sarah
Published: September 2023

This chapter explores the ways medieval readers engaged with images of ritual through imaginative and meditative reading practices. The repetitive and formulaic nature of the imagery is considered as a visual and imaginative invitatory to the reader-viewer to be absorbed by the image. Images of ritual offer several avenues to the reader through which to engage with an objectified ‘self’, in the representation of the material signifiers of social identity, and in the focus on the corpse within the communal setting. Finally, the evocation of sounded and somatic experiences of the Office of the Dead as represented and experienced through the image is discussed.
Watch My Back, I Will Flourish: Secure-Base and Promotion-Tasks
Authors: Lehmann Michal , Kluger Avraham N. , Schödl Michal M.
Published: September 2023

We report five studies that examine a nurturing relationship with the supervisor as an antecedent of promotion focus, a motivation reflecting exploration, creativity, and attention to gains versus non-gains. We hypothesize that supervisors who provide a secure base for their employees
will increase the employees' state-promotion focus and create a preference for engaging in promotion tasks over prevention tasks. We tested our hypotheses across five studies ( N = 822): a correlational-field study, and four vignette experiments, and performed a mini-meta analysis of
all studies that showed support for our hypothesis. Overall, our work suggests a theoretical link and an empirical test of two seminal theories, and sheds light on practical ways to affect employee-task preference at work through fulfilling relationships.
Sobre el autor de El Lazarillo o, de nuevo, sobre Juan de Valdés
Authors: Martínez Domingo José María
Published: September 2023

RESUMEN:
Este artículo trata de recuperar y fundamentar la atribución de El Lazarillo a Juan de Valdés, ahondando en las razones esgrimidas por Manuel J. Asensio o, más recientemente, por Mariano Calvo. Empleando argumentos de tipo lingüístico, biográfico e intertextual, y cotejando El Lazarillo con obras de Valdés como el Diálogo de la lengua o el Diálogo de la doctrina cristiana, se concluye que, si el autor de El Lazarillo no fue Juan de Valdés, éste habría sido, como ya defendió Asensio en su momento, un autor excepcionalmente cercano a él, tanto en su biografía y en su personalidad como en su pensamiento y en su trayectoria literaria.

ABSTRACT:
This article aims to probe that Juan de Valdés is the most likely author of Lazarillo, a hypothesis already proposed by specialists such as Manuel J. Asensio and, most recently, Mariano Calvo. By analyzing linguistic recurrences, biographical data, and intertextual connections between El Lazarillo and Valdés’ writings such as Diálogo de la doctrina cristiana and Diálogo de la lengua, the conclusion is reached that, if the author of Lazarillo was not Valdés, that writer was, in fact, someone uniquely close to Valdés’ biography, personality, thought and literary trajectory.
Transformación tecnológica y diferenciación de las Unidades de Producción de piña en México
Authors: Santoyo-Cortés Vinicio Horacio , Uriza Cadenas Luis Daniel , Leos Rodríguez Juan Antonio , Muñoz Rodríguez Manrrubio
Published: September 2023

La llegada masiva en 2005 del híbrido de piña MD2 y las innovaciones productivas, acolchado plástico y mallasombra promovidas por el INIFAP a partir de 2010, denominadas en su uso conjunto como “Ambiente Protegido” (AP), transformaron el sector piñero en México. Este trabajo analiza la diferenciación en las Unidades de Producción Piñeras (UPP) resultantes de estos cambios tecnológicos. Para ello, a partir de entrevistas y revisión documental se define unatipología de productores y se analiza el impacto diferencial del AP en la gestión de la información, los requerimientos de insumos y fuerza de trabajo especializada; así como, en las modalidades de inserción a los mercados. La adopción del sistema de producción en AP mejoró la productividad, la calidad y la estacionalidad de la producción, con menor impacto ambiental y mayor inocuidad de los frutos, diferenciando las UPP en tradicionales, intermedias y tecnificadas. Para los dos últimos tipos, esto permitió acceso a mercados más rentables como la exportación y las grandes cadenas comerciales nacionales, pero con estrictas exigencias de trazabilidad, presentación y certificaciones. La producción tecnificada requiere mayores inversiones y también una gestión de proveeduría, información y fuerza de trabajo más precisa y oportuna, por lo que los sistemas gerenciales en las empresas se han vuelto complejos. Así, para que las UPP hagan frente a las exigencias de los mercados y a los retos del cambio climático, la innovación tecnológica, se ha tenido que complementar con innovaciones gerenciales, comerciales y de proveeduría.

TRANSFORMANDO A EDUCAÇÃO DE JOVENS E ADULTOS EM PRISÕES: UMA ANÁLISE DA IMPLEMENTAÇÃO DE METODOLOGIAS ATIVAS NA DISCIPLINA DE FÍSICA
Authors: Queiroz Clésia Carneiro da Silva Freire
Published: September 2023

Este artigo visa analisar o impacto da implementação de metodologias ativas na disciplina de Física, no âmbito da Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA) em prisões. Para tanto, a metodologia da pesquisa foi o ensaio teórico, que consistiu na síntese e crítica da literatura sobre a temática.  A pesquisa evidenciou como a adoção de estratégias pedagógicas interativas pode revolucionar o cenário educacional dentro do sistema prisional. A aplicação de metodologias ativas, como resolução de problemas em grupo, experimentação prática e discussões, não apenas desperta o interesse dos alunos, mas também melhora a retenção de conhecimento e promove habilidades críticas de pensamento. Conclui-se, portanto que é necessário repensar a EJA em prisões, buscando abordagens centradas no aluno para efetivamente transformar o ambiente educacional. Através dessas práticas, não apenas a compreensão da Física é aprimorada, mas também as perspectivas educacionais e sociais dos detentos são expandidas, preparando-os para uma reintegração mais eficaz na sociedade após a sua liberação.

Adjustment of 1 min rain gauge time series using co-located drop size distribution and wind speed measurements
Authors: Cauteruccio Arianna , Stagnaro Mattia , Lanza Luca G. , Chan Pak-Wai
Published: September 2023

Abstract. A procedure to adjust rainfall intensity (RI) measurements to account for the wind-induced measurement bias of traditional catching-type gauges is
proposed and demonstrated with an application to a suitable case study. The objective is to demonstrate that adjustment curves derived from numerical
simulations and disdrometer measurements allow for a posteriori correction of rainfall time series based on the wind velocity measurements
alone. To quantify the
impact of wind on long-term records, 1 min RI measurements from a cylindrical tipping-bucket rain gauge installed at the Hong Kong Observatory are adjusted. Catch ratios derived from the instrument's aerodynamic behaviour under varying wind speed and drop size
combinations are obtained by fitting computational fluid-dynamic simulation results already available in the literature. Co-located high-resolution
wind speed measurements from a cup and vane sensor and drop size distribution measurements from an optical video disdrometer (the 2DVD or two-dimensional video disdrometer) are used to
infer the collection efficiency of the gauge as a function of wind speed and RI alone and to adjust raw data from a 4-year dataset (2018–2021)
of 1 min RI measurements. Due to the specific local climatology, where strong wind is often associated with intense precipitation,
80 % of the dataset adjustments are limited to 4 % of the observed RI values. This, however, results in a significant amount of available
freshwater resources that would be missing from the calculated hydrological and water management budget of the region should the adjustments be
neglected. This work raises the need to quantify the impact of the wind-induced bias at other sites where disdrometer data support a characterisation of
the relationship between the drop size distribution and the measured RI. Depending on the local rain and wind climatology, the correction may account
for a significant portion of the annual rainfall amount.
Measurement-Driven Large-Eddy Simulations of a Diurnal Cycle during a Wake Steering Field Campaign
Authors: Quon Eliot
Published: September 2023

Abstract. High-fidelity flow modeling with data assimilation enables accurate representation of the wind-farm operating environment under realistic, nonstationary atmospheric conditions. Capturing the temporal evolution of the turbulent atmospheric boundary layer is critical to understanding the behavior of wind turbines under operating conditions with simultaneously varying inflow and controls inputs. This paper covers the identification of a case study during a field evaluation of wake steering; the development of a tailored mesoscale-to-microscale coupling strategy that captured local flow conditions within a large-eddy simulation (LES), given observations that do not completely describe the wind and temperature fields throughout the simulation domain; and the application of this coupling strategy to validate high-fidelity aeroelastic predictions of turbine performance and wake interactions with and without wake steering. The case study spans 4.5 hours after midnight local time, during which wake steering was toggled on and off five times, achieving yaw offset angles ranging from 0° to 17°. To resolve these nonstationary nighttime conditions, the turbulence field was evolved starting from the diurnal cycle of the previous day. Given these simulated background conditions, an LES with actuator-disk turbines was compared to a steady-state engineering wake model, demonstrating agreement with measurements under partially and nearly waked conditions. The LES was also able to capture conditions during which an upstream turbine wake induced a speedup at a downstream turbine and increased power production by 10 %.
“El proceso alquímico de lo humano a lo animal en “El día en que fuimos perros” de Elena Garro”
Authors: Mendoza Raul
Published: September 2023

En el cuento de Elena Garro titulado “El día en que fuimos perros” ocurre una transformación psicológica de dos niñas en perro. Tal suceso es el núcleo de la trama, el cual puede ser analizado como un proceso alquímico visto desde la óptica de la psicología profunda. La tarea del presente artículo es detallar cómo ocurre el paso de lo humano a lo animal desde una perspectiva psicoanalítica y encontrar el significado de ese proceso. Para dicho efecto se explicará las fases alquímicas ocurridas en el relato a través del conflicto entre principio de la realidad y el principio del placer ocurrido en la psique de las protagonistas. Al utilizar la definición de alquimia proveniente de la psicología profunda será posible explicar el significado de la transmutación de niñas en perros. Explicación que será enriquecida con la teoría sintérgica de Jacobo Gringberg que habla de dos niveles de conciencia propios de los pueblos autóctonos mexicanos: la conciencia Tonal y la Conciencia Nahual.
Emergence of Surveillance Capitalism in Medicine
Authors: Kassay Andrea
Published: September 2023

Surveillance capitalism is defined by Dr. Zuboff, Harvard professor of social psychology, as the “commodification of reality and its transformation into behavioural data for analysis and sales” which is invading our modern world. Surveillance capitalism can occur through the use of social media and search engines; these platforms provide third party companies with large amounts of data that allows them to predict how we, the consumer, will behave. As a result of using their platforms, these companies learn how to modify our behaviour through the use of this complex behavioural psychology, and we put ourselves at risk of manipulation without even knowing it. Surveillance capitalism is a new force that is emerging in medicine and consequently becoming a new public health concern. This commentary will discuss the way surveillance capitalism affects public health through the use of Google, social media, and apps. Surveillance capitalism is on the rise in our society, and it is hard to stop it from invading our personal and private lives.

Introdução: A síndrome inflamatória multissistêmica em crianças (MIS-C), também conhecida como síndrome multissistêmica inflamatória pediátrica, é uma nova doença infantil perigosa que está temporariamente associada à doença de coronavírus 2019 (COVID-19). Nosso objetivo foi descrever a apresentação típica e os resultados de crianças diagnosticadas com essa condição hiperinflamatória. Método: Conduzimos uma revisão de literatura para comunicar os sinais e sintomas clínicos, achados laboratoriais, resultados de imagem e resultados de indivíduos com MIS-C. Pesquisamos quatro bancos de dados médicos para abranger estudos que caracterizam MIS-C de 2020. Resultados: A febre foi documentada em quase todos os pacientes (99,4%), geralmente durante pelo menos 5 dias (27,0%). A maioria (85,6%) apresentou sintomas gastrointestinais, principalmente dor abdominal (58,4%), vômitos (57,5%) e diarreia (50,4%). Manifestações cardiovasculares foram encontradas em 79,3% dos pacientes (307/387). Taquicardia (194/253; 76,7%), choque hemodinâmico ou hipotensão (416/695; 59,9%), miocardite (128/309; 41,4%) e diminuição leve ou moderada da fração de ejeção do ventrículo esquerdo (FEVE entre 30 e 55%; 40,4%) foram anormalidades cardiovasculares frequentemente observadas. Discussão: As crianças normalmente apresentam sinais/sintomas de MIS-C três a quatro semanas após a infecção por COVID-19 e muitas evoluem rapidamente para choque e insuficiência cardiorrespiratória. No geral, as crianças sobreviverão a essa condição hiperinflamatória com a administração de IVIG, esteroides, uma equipe multidisciplinar de profissionais de saúde e, em alguns casos, agentes imunomoduladores. Conclusão: Mais pesquisas epidemiológicas, clínicas, imunológicas e genéticas são necessárias, bem como estudos de acompanhamento de longo prazo de pacientes com PIMS-TS/MIS(-C).

The purpose of the research was to study the extraction of the main components of the productive solution of the Almaly deposit with oxyoxime extractants. As the practice of existing plants shows, one of the main drawbacks of the process when implementing the liquid extraction process at various fields is the formation and accumulation of a large volume of the third phase (crud), which leads to a slowdown, in some cases to a stop in the solvent extraction process, thereby reducing the efficiency of the entire production copper by SX-EW technology. One of the main factors leading to the formation of such a phase are harmful metal impurities, solid suspensions in the solution supplied for extraction, improper selection of extractants and the operation mode of the extraction cycle. To prevent such a process, it is important to study the extraction of the main components of productive solutions with different extractants. Studies on the extraction of metals from the productive solution of the Almaly deposit of composition, g/dm3 : Cu 0.235-0.262, Fe 17.97-21.55, SiO2 0.34-0.36 were carried out using reagents Acorga 5640 (10%), Acorga 5640 (5%) with CR60 additive and Lix 984N (10%). It was found that when using the first two, they led to the accumulation of iron and silica ions in the organic phase, and at Lix 984N (10%), the maximum transition of silica ions into the electrolyte, and iron into the raffinate. The accumulation of iron and silica ions in the organic phase is undesirable and may be the cause of crud formation.

The aim of the study is to consider a method for improving the energy efficiency of the technological process of plasma recovering of turbine blades of CHP through the development and implementation of a three-way vortex mixer into the design of the plasma torch. By changing the operating parameters of the mixer, it is possible to adaptively control not only the recovery modes, but also the physical and mechanical properties of the coating. It has been established that structural changes in the technological elements of the plasmatron significantly change its structural characteristics, which leads to a change in the gas-dynamic processes occurring in it. The changes consist in the appearance of additional hydraulic and gas resistance to the flow of the carrier gas with the powder composition. Modernization of the plasmatron and optimization of technological regimes require a gas-dynamic calculation of each element of the gas-air path at the design stage. Studies of the principles of pressure distribution, flow rate, changes in the flow rate of the transporting gas and powder composition made it possible to design the optimal design of the plasmatron while retaining its technical characteristics, regulated by the GOST 4.140-85 standard «System of product quality indicators. Electric welding equipment. Nomenclature of indicators»

La hepatitis C aguda es asintomática o inespecífica en un 80 % de los casos, por lo que su diagnóstico suele pasar inadvertido, con escasas descripciones de evolución y manejo en la literatura. El clearance es- pontáneo se produce sólo en el 20 %, ocurriendo en general, dentro de las 12 semanas desde la infección. Las guías clínicas recomiendan un mínimo de seguimiento de 12-16 semanas antes de considerar tratamiento antiviral.

The Model of a Screw Steamship from the Studio of Marine Painter Eduard van Heemskerck van Beest

Published: September 2023

The Rijksmuseum has a number of nineteenth-century ship models once owned by the former naval officer and marine painter Jacob Eduard van Heemskerck van Beest (1828-1894). One of them, a model of the earliest generation of screw steamships with sails, a hybrid of a traditional sailing ship and a steamship, has recently been restored. During the restoration it was found to have the generic characteristics of a screw steamship, but a specific identification of function (navy or merchant navy) was not possible because of the lack of details. There are, though, strong indications that it must have been a sailing toy model. Given the presence of a drive shaft to the screw, grease stains (lubrication?) and a removable funnel, it seems that there was once a little steam engine in the empty cavity gouged out of the block from which the model was made. The model also has a lead keel, which gave this toy the stability it needed. In a normal ship model, the keel would have been made of wood. The fact that the painter Eduard van Heemskerck, who himself had spent a short time in the navy, was interested in ship models is obvious. It seems likely that the models played a role in his studio in creating a maritime setting: as inspiration, as examples for his work and to put potential buyers of his paintings in the right mood. However, it is less likely that they formed part of Van Heemskerck’s carefully put together collection of seventeenth-century furniture, decorative pieces, paintings and two room panels that he sold to the forerunner of the Rijksmuseum in 1877. The nineteenth-century dating and undistinguished quality of the ship models mean that they are out of place in the collection acquired at that time.

В данной статье изучена этиология стрептококков лошадей, проведено бактериологическое исследование больных и клинически здоровых лошадей. Классифицирован на серологические группы. Для проведения эксперимента докладываются о проведении 2 проб крови 16 больных и клинически здоровых животных, 8 проб миндалин, 5 абсцессов, 2 проб вагинальных выделений и выделений из матки кобыл, бактериологических исследований молока и молозива 2 проб. Образцы органов и тканей, а также образцы от 55 умерших и насильственно забитых животных различных возрастных групп прошли бактериологическое исследование.

Проведенные исследования позволяют сделать вывод, что из общего количества выделенной микрофлоры из патологического материала, а также образцов больных и клинически здоровых животных стрептококки занимают первое место по частоте выделения (59,1%). При исследовании образцов тканей легких и миндалин было обнаружено, что стрептококки выделялись примерно в одних и тех же случаях. Обнаружение стрептококков в крови, селезенке указывает на септическую форму стрептококков у жеребят, а их присутствие в синовиальной жидкости суставов часто соответствует хронической форме течения стрептококковой инфекции у животных, что позже было подтверждено и продемонстрированы результаты патологических и клинических исследований.

В настоящее время вакцинные препараты наряду с высокой эффективностью должны обладать безопасностью, так как безопасность вакцин является одним из  основных условий их применения. В статье представлены результаты исследований по определению безопасности у естественно воспримчивых (казахстанских тонкорунных пород овец и коз) и лабораторных (морские свинки и белые мыши) животных, привитых вакциной против чумы мелких жвачных животных (ЧМЖЖ) из штамма Nigeria 75/1.

Безопасность вакцины определяли путем оценки местной (место введения) и общей (повышение температуры и снижение массы тела) реакции организма у животных после иммунизации. В течение срока наблюдения после вакцинации все животные были клинически здоровы, аллергических реакций, а также изменений в терморегуляции не отмечено. Незначительное снижение веса у вакцинированных морских свинок, свидетельствующее об угнетении физиологических функций, наблюдалось в 1-е и 3-и сутки после введения вакцины. Затем вес постепенно повышался и к 5-м суткам вес животных был ближе к исходному. У белых мышей снижение веса после введения вакцины не отмечено.

Анализ полученных результатов свидетельствуют о безопасности вакцины против ЧМЖЖ из штамма Nigeria 75/1.
