Portugal... Entre o apelo do mar e o apego à terra. O discurso europeu na periferia atlântica
Authors: Silva António Martins da
Published: January 2025

Não se conhece em Portugal, até ao século XIX, qualquer esboço teórico que configure um projecto ou a simples manifestação da ideia de uma Europa unida, perspectivada em formas de entendimento multilateral de qualquer natureza. É na época contemporânea, a partir sobretudo do último meio século de oitocentos, que a consciência da necessidade de aproximação de Portugal à Europa, a ideia de unidade e a participação em projectos e instituições de cooperação ou de integração assumiram expressões crescentes, embora de forma flutuante, com avanços e recuos, conforme os condicionalismos políticos internos e as conjunturas internacionais. Mas é só no século XX, no pós-primeira guerra, que se esboçam os contornos e a forma de uma ideia de unidade europeia moderna, que ganhará corpo e movimento após a segunda guerra. Portugal participou neste processo nos anos 20, mas a irrupção do salazarismo, nacionalista, atlantista e colonial, deixaria profundas marcas na consciência e na sensibilidade nacionais e afastaria o país da caminhada para a unidade europeia, embora não ficasse alheio a formas de cooperação económica e de segurança, que entretanto se organizaram, desde que não pusessem em causa os princípios e os alicerces do Estado Novo. Após o 25 de Abril, volvida a fase da vertigem revolucionária, a situação periclitante da lusitana condição doméstica impôs-se à evidência de muitos: a opção europeia, apesar de todas as dúvidas e hesitações, tornou-se, doravante, uma realidade incontornável. Contudo, a condição geográfica periférica de Portugal e a sua natural exposição orientada para o oceano funciona(ra)m como elementos subjacentes ou estruturantes desta cíclica perplexidade de encontro e de desencontro em relação à Europa - aqui, onde a terra acaba e o mar começa.

Authors: Veloso Clarissa dos Santos , Canettieri Thiago , Andrade Bárbara Moreira de
Published: January 2025

Este artigo explora as transformações das demandas sociais em territórios populares que informam os desafios emergentes e as consequentes formas de ação coletiva de movimentos sociais na Região Metropolitana de Belo Horizonte (RMBH). A partir dos encontros de pesquisadores e ativistas em um curso de formação, analisamos a articulação entre as pautas atualizadas e o ideário da Reforma Urbana e do Direito à Cidade a partir da teoria de frames. Os encontros do Curso promovem discussões sobre a reforma urbana e o direito à cidade, além de difundir práticas que ativistas empregam em suas atividades cotidianas. Os debates indicam uma pluralidade de pautas e uma hibridização das lutas pela reforma urbana e pelo direito à cidade. Apesar de historicamente guiadas pela questão habitacional, hoje nota-se um amplo panorama de interesses e necessidades que são articuladas nas práticas dos movimentos sociais. O escopo de ação dos movimentos sociais tem se ampliado na direção da integração das pautas. O presente trabalho contribui para avançar na análise sobre os agentes, interesses e ações coletivas de movimentos sociais da RMBH.

Authors: Silva Edilucia Barros da , Ramos Jorge Luís Cavalcanti , Gomes Fonseca Platini
Published: January 2025

Este artigo tem como objetivo descrever a pesquisa, o desenvolvimento e a implantação de um sistema de informação para apoiar a gestão da extensão na Universidade Federal do Vale do São Francisco (Univasf). O Sistema de Gerenciamento para Ações de Extensão (SIGEX) foi desenvolvido com o intuito de otimizar os processos de submissão, avaliação e organização das atividades extensionistas, além de automatizar a geração de relatórios setoriais e de indicadores de extensão. Na Univasf, cabe à Pró-Reitoria de Extensão (PROEX) a função de institucionalizar programas, projetos, eventos, cursos e demais ações, contudo, o fluxo desses registros são artesanais, implicando morosidade no trabalho e perda de dados importantes. De modo geral, é um estudo interdisciplinar, de natureza aplicada. Quanto aos objetivos, definiu-se como uma pesquisa exploratória e descritiva, com abordagem mista. O método utilizado foi o Design Science Research (DSR), uma metodologia específica para pesquisas que visam criar um artefato tecnológico, a fim de solucionar problemas concretos. Observou-se, por meio dos resultados da avaliação do SIGEX, que o sistema é útil, intuitivo e de fácil utilização. Assim, o software busca proporcionar celeridade nos protocolos de cadastramento e avaliação de ações e facilidade na emissão de relatórios de gestão da extensão.
Resiliência e Identidade de Lugar no Contexto da Emergência Climática Global: Estudo de Caso Comparativo Brasil e Portugal
Authors: Camargo Alexandro Francisco , Basílio Romário Sampaio
Published: January 2025

Neste estudo abrangente, foram comparados estudantes universitários portugueses com estudantes brasileiros a partir dos parâmetros identidade de lugar e traços de resiliência. Para isso, seguindo a coleta de dados via questionário, utilizou-se a psicometria aliada a métodos de análise estatística, com o objetivo central de entender como a identidade de lugar e os traços de resiliência contribuem como promotoras de resiliência. Os resultados revelam uma percepção geralmente precisa entre os participantes sobre as consequências das alterações climáticas em suas respectivas regiões, com uma consciência mais pronunciada observada em áreas previstas para experimentar maiores mudanças. Notavelmente, em Portugal, uma correlação significativa emergiu entre um risco aumentado de inundações e uma identidade local mais forte, enquanto entre os participantes brasileiros, uma correlação semelhante foi observada com condições de seca. Esta apresentação foca na análise da Identidade Local/Social e Resiliência (escala Takviriyanun). Os resultados também destacam uma conexão predominantemente positiva entre os participantes e suas comunidades locais. Destaca-se que indivíduos com uma identidade local mais acentuada demonstram maior resiliência em quatro dos cinco fatores analisados (Apoio, Determinação, Otimismo e Outros Apoios). Conclui-se, portanto, que uma identidade local fortalecida está associada a uma maior capacidade de enfrentamento frente às alterações climáticas. Dessa forma, abre-se a possibilidade de analisar a relação entre identidade de lugar e resiliência como um conceito psico-geográfico essencial para a gestão territorial, uma vez que se configura como uma ferramenta estratégica para promover e intensificar os processos de adaptação.
WEST SUMATRA’S RETAIL POLICIES ON THE PERSPECTIVE OF COMPETITION AND ISLAMIC LAW
Authors: Ulfanora Ulfanora , Almaududi Almaududi
Published: January 2025

This study examines the legal framework regulating retail markets in Indonesia, focusing on balancing modern retail growth with the protection of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). The introduction highlights the rapid expansion of modern retail chains and their impact on traditional markets, emphasizing West Sumatra’s unique approach of limiting the entry of major retail chains to support local businesses. However, this policy lacks clear written regulations, creating legal and operational uncertainties. Using a doctrinal legal research methodology, the study analyzes statutory laws, legal doctrines, and secondary sources. Key legal instruments include the Law on Prohibition of Monopolistic Practices and Unfair Business Competition, the Job Creation Law, and Regional Regulations on Fostering and Empowering People's Markets. The qualitative analysis focuses on identifying inconsistencies, gaps, and the synchronization of these regulations. The findings reveal the absence of explicit legal provisions supporting local governments’ restrictions on modern retail, despite their efforts to protect traditional markets. The study underscores the need for comprehensive and clear legal frameworks to ensure fair competition, safeguard MSMEs, and align with national socio-economic goals. Recommendations include regulatory reforms to address ambiguities and support sustainable retail market policies
PEMENUHAN HAK AKSES ATAS INFORMASI VAKSIN COVID-19 BAGI PENYANDANG DISABILITAS
Authors: Firdausy Adriana Grahani , Kusumawati Erna Dyah , Sasmini Sasmini
Published: January 2025

Sampai pada tahun 2023, Jumlah penyandang disabilitas yang telah menerima vaksin Covid-19 masih dapat dikatakan rendah. Kurangnya akses terkait dengan informasi atas vaksin Covid 19 mungkin merupakan salah satu penyebab rendahnya jumlah vaksinasi terhadap kelompok ini. Penelitian ini akan mengevaluasi bagaimana pemerintah Indonesia menjamin dan memenuhi hak akses vaksin Covid-19 bagi penyandang disabilitas, dengan menganalisis penyelenggaraan program vaksinasi pada empat wilayah di Indonesia. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian sosio-legal dengan pendekatan interdisipliner. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa pemerintah telah menjamin hak akses atas informasi penyandang disabilitas melalui peraturan perundang-undangan baik di tingkat pusat maupun daerah. Beberapa kendala yang ditemukan antara lain kepastian ketersediaan data penyandang disabilitas dan persebaran hoaks dalam komunitas penyandang disabilitas.
CHOICE OF PARADIGM IN ARBITRATION: ARBITRATOR’S AUTONOMY OR PARTIES’ AUTHORITY?
Authors: Roosdiono Anangga W. , Taqwa Muhamad Dzadit
Published: January 2025

The choice of paradigm in dispute resolution through arbitration raises a fundamental question: should the arbitral tribunal render its decision based on the law or ex aequo et bono? Most legal scholars affirm that the disputing parties have the full authority to dictate the tribunal's choice of paradigm in resolving disputes. This perspective, in Indonesia, is justified by two grounds: the Elucidation of Article 56(1) of Arbitration and Alternative Dispute Resolution Law, and the party autonomy principle in arbitration. Against this mainstream view, this paper repositions the role of arbitrators, emphasizing that they should possess autonomy -rather than being dictated to-when choosing the paradigm dispute resolution. This paper concludes that the choice of paradigm should rest within the authority of arbitrators.
Three new species of Niphargidae family added to the list of subterranean amphipods (Crustacea: Amphipoda) in Slovenia
Authors: Fišer Cene , Delić Teo , Zagmajster Maja
Published: January 2025

Since the last comprehensive checklist of amphipods in 2021, three new species of subterranean amphipods have been confirmed for Slovenia: Niphargus danielopoli, N. lurensis and N. julius. Identification of all three species was based on molecular comparative analyses of the mitochondrial CO1 gene fragment, usually used in DNA barcoding identification. With these additions, we reached a total of 201 amphipod species confirmed for Slovenia, 60 of which are groundwater inhabitants, with 57 species belonging to the genus Niphargus.

On the convexity theory of generating functions
Authors: Loeper Grégoire , Trudinger Neil S.
Published: January 2025

In this paper, we extend our convexity theory for C
2 cost functions in optimal transportation to more general generating functions, which were originally introduced by the second author to extend the framework of optimal transportation to embrace near field geometric optics. In particular we provide an alternative geometric treatment to the previous analytic approach using differential inequalities, which also gives a different derivation of the invariance of the fundamental regularity conditions under duality. We also extend our local theory to cover the strict version of these conditions for C
2 cost and generating functions.

International Commodity-Tax Competition and Asymmetric Producer Prices
Authors: Yasar Sezer
Published: January 2025

In this paper, I extend the seminal commodity-tax competition model of Kanbur and Keen (1993. “Jeux Sans Frontières: Tax Competition and Tax Coordination When Countries Differ in Size.” The American Economic Review 83: 877–92) letting asymmetric producer prices between countries of different sizes. Unlike Kanbur and Keen, I show that there are multiple equilibria, and at some equilibria, small-country consumers cross-shop from the large. Besides, tax harmonization can benefit the small country, and a minimum tax rate can decrease a country’s tax revenue.
Investigating the role of hyperexpressed HCN1 in inducing myocardial infarction through activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway
Authors: Liang Xiao , Zhang Jie , Luo Ya
Published: January 2025

We investigated the protective effect of the NF-κB inhibitor, pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) on cardiomyocyte injury induced by HCN1 channel overexpression, and explored the underlying mechanisms. An HCN1 overexpression vector was constructed and transfected into H9C2 cells, followed by PDTC treatment. The experiments comprised the following groups: control, control + PDTC, overexpression negative control, HCN1 overexpression (HCN1-OE), and combined HCN1-OE + PDTC groups. Cell proliferation was assessed using the CCK8 assay, while apoptosis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were measured by flow cytometry. ELISA kits were used to determine the levels of malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase, and interleukin-1 beta. The HCN1-OE group exhibited increased apoptosis, elevated ROS, and decreased survival. Western blot (WB) analysis revealed increased levels of p65, p-IκB, IKKβ, NLRP3, Beclin-1, and LC3 II/I proteins in the HCN1-OE group. PDTC treatment for 48 h post-HCN1-OE resulted in improved cell viability, reduced apoptosis, and decreased ROS in the HCN1-OE + PDTC group. Immunofluorescence and WB analysis indicated a reduction in HCN1 and NF-κB pathway protein levels in the HCN1-OE + PDTC group. In conclusion, PDTC provided protection against HCN1-induced cardiomyocyte injury, potentially by modulating inflammatory cytokines and regulating the IKKβ/IκB/NF-κB signaling pathway.
Disruption of BCAA degradation is a critical characteristic of diabetic cardiomyopathy revealed by integrated transcriptome and metabolome analysis
Authors: Wu Yanxia , Jiang Wanxiang , Wang Junlong , Xie Guoqing , Sun Yan , Yang Jinliang
Published: January 2025

In this study, we integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the underlying mechanisms of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) in a diabetic rat model. Functional and molecular characterizations revealed significant cardiac injury, dysfunction, and ventricular remodeling in DCM. A thorough analysis of global changes in genes and metabolites showed that amino acid metabolism, especially the breakdown of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) such as valine, leucine, and isoleucine, is highly dysregulated. Furthermore, the study identified the transcription factor Gata3 as a predicted negative regulator of the gene encoding the key enzyme for BCAA degradation. These findings suggest that the disruption of BCAA degradation is a critical characteristic of diabetic myocardial damage and indicate a potential role for Gata3 in the dysregulation of BCAA metabolism in the context of DCM.
How Do Metaphors Emerge from Cultural Images? On Hermeneutics of Sweetness
Authors: Vydra Anton
Published: January 2025

The paper focuses on the relations between hermeneutics, spirituality and imagination. The theoretical frame is formed by the notion of imaginative sets. These sets of dominant cultural images inscribe themselves into our understanding of the meanings of texts or spiritual contents. One such imaginative schema has undoubtedly been the image of reading as nourishment and the subsequent image of reading as pleasure or sweetness. The latter will be used here as an example of how from cultural images emerge metaphors by assigning certain meaning to them. The basis of these images goes back to early Christian times and to the metaphor of learning as eating. Medieval hermeneutics adopted these images according to its cultural forms. However, the use of the metaphor of sweetness in the Middle Ages differs from the use of the similar metaphors in the early Christianity because of the changed meaning attributed to the image. The imaginative set of sweetness reached their peak with Cusanus, but it appeared sporadically afterwards and is still active today when people say about nutritious reading or the savouring of texts. Imaginative sets thus not only have their history of petrified metaphors, but also the history of reactivations of images.

New contribution to Luria–Delbrück distribution. Stability property and estimation
Authors: Boughrara Sabrina , Bedouhene Fazia , Zougab Nabil
Published: January 2025

The multiplication of cells leads to consider the cell division model with mutation. Large cell counts therefore appear, implying that the distribution of the final number of mutant cells is a heavy tailed distribution. This distribution can be interpreted as a compound Poisson distribution, which depends on two parameters: the average number of mutations and the fitness parameter (heavy tail index). In this work, we specify some conditions that ensure a stability property of heavy-tailed distributions, namely, the distribution of random sum of random variables is a heavy-tailed distribution. We apply the obtained result to the compound Poisson distribution. To estimate the tail index, the Hill estimator and the generating function method are used. A comparative study is performed using these two estimators.
Embracing a new era of echocardiography-guided percutaneous and non-fluoroscopical procedure for structure heart disease
Authors: Dong Jie , Liu Zeye , Dong Jing , Fang Fang , Zhang Fengwen , Pan Xiangbin
Published: January 2025

The advancement of catheter-based interventional techniques represents a significant evolution in cardiovascular medicine. However, traditional methods that rely on fluoroscopic guidance present considerable limitations including radiation exposure and contrast agent-related risks and the heavy load-caused lead suits. In response, zero or low X-ray emerge, including percutaneous and non-fluoroscopical (PAN) procedure coming as a transformative solution, particularly in treating congenital heart disease, valvular disease, and arrhythmias. These methods minimize the risk of iatrogenic injuries associated with radiative procedures. Innovative PAN procedures and methodologies have been developed to enhance imaging, transcatheter interventions, safety, and accuracy, overcoming previous limitations. By eliminating radiation and expanding accessibility, PAN procedures offer a safe, effective, and economically viable alternative to traditional methods, ushering in a new era of minimally invasive cardiovascular treatment.
Characterising the mechanical behaviour of dry-formed cellulose fibre materials
Authors: Kaplan Magdalena , Johansson Adam , Östlund Sören
Published: January 2025

In the dry-forming process, paper pulp is formed without adding water, making it more resource-effective than traditional papermaking. It is a relatively new technology, patented only in recent years, and very few material investigations exist in the literature; hence, little is known of the constitutive behaviour. The stress state during forming is highly complex, including multiaxial loading, extreme densification, friction, large strains, and fibre-joint formation. This paper studies dry-formed materials at different compression levels, from the sparse mat to the highly densified network. Three primary loading modes are investigated: in-plane tension, out-of-plane shear and out-of-plane compression. The results indicate that the tensile modulus and strength scale quadratically and cubically to the density, respectively, while the shear properties start developing after the density passes a threshold value. The compressive properties proved difficult to quantify, mainly because of the discrepancy between the density before and after the compressive test. The dry-formed material was compared to wet-formed paper materials in the literature. This showed that the in-plane (tensile) properties and the out-of-plane shear strength are visibly lower while the shear stiffness is similar, compared to wet-formed materials. Nonetheless, the findings set a starting point for numerical simulations of the dry-forming process.
The management of body dysmorphic disorder in adolescents: A systematic literature review
Authors: Ghosh Tania , Blair Erik
Published: January 2025

Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a pathological body dissatisfaction characterised by delusional beliefs of a flaw in appearance paired with obsessive-compulsive rituals. This disorder has a high prevalence in adolescence. This study examines the current state of treatment for BDD in adolescents in the UK to establish a baseline of current treatment, and to identify specific areas for further research. A systematic literature review of two databases was carried out and resultant papers were organised using an amended version of the current UK management standards. Six papers met the eligibility criteria and cognitive behavioural therapy was reported as the most effective current treatment. In drawing together the key findings, three areas for further research were highlighted that are of relevance to a broad range of clinicians working in BDD management in adolescence. These included inquiry into mental health professionals’ perspectives, a review of the rate of remission rates, and research into the extent to which schools can influence adolescents’ ideas about body image. The significance of BDD is not reflected in the current literature base. Education of professionals and the wider community is warranted, as is the drive for improved awareness and an increase in the availability of treatment.
Evaluating the nutritional, therapeutic, and economic potential of Tetragonia decumbens Mill.: A promising wild leafy vegetable for bio-saline agriculture in South Africa
Authors: Sogoni Avela , Jimoh Muhali Olaide , Ngxabi Sihle , Kambizi Learnmore , Laubscher Charles Petrus
Published: January 2025

Global agriculture feeds over seven billion people and alarmingly, this number is expected to increase by a further 50% by 2050. To meet the additional food demand, the world development report has estimated that crop production should increase by 70–100% by 2050. However, climate change, expanding soil salinization, and the developing shortages of freshwater have negatively affected crop production of edible plants around the world. Current attempts to adapt to these conditions include the use of salt-tolerant plant species with potential economic value to fulfil the increasing food demand escalated by the increasing human population. The wild edible halophyte Tetragonia decumbens commonly known as dune spinach has the potential to be used as a leafy vegetable, a source of dietary salt, in phytoremediation and as a source of secondary metabolites. However, it remains underutilized in South Africa as commercial farming of this species has never been explored. This review examined the potential of domesticating the wild dune spinach as a leafy vegetable, describing its morphology and ecology, its propagation and cultivation requirements as well as its potential use on human health and in phytoremediation of saline soils. Furthermore, this analysis is expected to be useful towards further research and popularization of this underexploited halophyte.
The Influence of Financial Development on Wealth Inequality in Capitalism: Fresh Evidence From Emerging Countries
Authors: Cengiz Orhan , Manga Müge
Published: January 2025

Our study focuses on how financial development (FD) affects wealth inequality (WI) in ten emerging countries from 1995 to 2020. These countries include Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, the Philippines, South Africa, Thailand, and Türkiye. We analyzed the impact of economic growth (EG) and trade openness (TO) on WI using the augmented mean group (AMG) estimator. Our research showed that FD leads to an increase in WI among panel groups, particularly in Brazil, China, Mexico, and the Philippines. Additionally, EG and TO have a positive effect on WI for panel samples. We also found a two-way causality relationship between FD and WI, EG and WI, and WI and TO. Our paper concludes with a policy recommendation that government intervention is crucial in ensuring that lower-income individuals have equal access to financial assets.

Assessment of frequency components of ECG waveform variability: Are there prospects for research into cardiac regulation processes?
Authors: Kiselev Anton R. , Zhuravlev Maksim O. , Runnova Anastasia E.
Published: January 2025

This brief review discusses the potential and prospects of using the electrocardiogram (ECG) signal directly for frequency analysis to study the processes of cardiac regulation. The advantage of the ECG signal over the generally accepted frequency analysis of the RR series is its higher sampling rate: 1000 samples per second (sps) for ECG signal vs. 4 sps for RR series. This may be important, first of all, when analyzing the interaction of cardiac regulation processes with other periodic processes in the body, such as the activity of neural circuits in the brain.
Stubci s protomama Jupitra-Amona i Gorgone iz Zadra i problem njihova arhitektonskog konteksta
Authors: Maršić Dražen
Published: January 2025

S ikonografske i funkcionalne točke gledišta stubci s protomama Jupitra-Amona i Gorgone (Meduze) najinteresantniji su, ali i najkontroverzniji elementi skulpturalne dekoracije Foruma antičkog Jadera. Njihov arhitektonski kontekst ni do danas nije nedvojbeno razjašnjen. Zaslužni istraživač Foruma M. Suić isprva je smatrao da su stajali unutar čeone balustrade kapitolijskog hrama. Iako su danas upravo tako prezentirani, tu pretpostavku demantira nekoliko detalja izrade. S vremenom ih je očito postao svjestan i Suić, koji je stubce naknadno pripisao „gornjoj balustradi“ severske bazilike. Tu mogućnost, međutim, negiraju stilske, tehnološke i ikonografske pojedinosti, koje pokazuju da su stubci znatno stariji. Suićevu atribuciju bazilici u nekim tekstovima prati crtaća dokumentacija koja stubce igrom slučaja prikazuje unutar galerije forumskog trijema, a upravo je to položaj u koji se stavljaju formom i dekoracijom slični stubci iz Pule. Nedavno otkriće dobro očuvanog pluteja u funkciji ograde između zadarskih stubaca omogućilo je točniju projekciju duljine tih elemenata, a time i udaljenosti na kojoj su stubci izvorno stajali. U radu se na temelju novih spoznaja i recentne literature preispituju mogućnosti arhitektonske kontekstualizacije zadarskih stubaca, ali i druga važna pitanja u vezi s rekonstrukcijom trijema zadarskog Foruma kao najizglednijeg kandidata za njihov smještaj: dimenzije stupova, visina trijema, pripadnost stupova iz prizemlja i matroneja Sv. Donata.
Responsabilidad penal de las personas jurídicas en los ciberdelitos
Authors: Almenar Pineda Francisco
Published: January 2025

La responsabilidad penal de las personas jurídicas en el contexto de los ciberdelitos se establece a través del Código Penal, que fue reformado en 2010 incluyendo a las personas morales como sujetos activos de delitos por primera vez en nuestra legislación. Esto significa que pueden ser penadas por delitos, cometidos en su beneficio, tales como el fraude informático, la difusión de malware o la violación de derechos de propiedad intelectual. La responsabilidad se activa cuando se demuestra que el delito fue cometido por personas que actúan en nombre o por cuenta de la entidad, y que esta no ha implementado medidas adecuadas de prevención y control. Sin embargo, esa tarea no resulta sencilla, por cuanto será necesario determinar qué persona física ha accedido ilícitamente a un sistema informático ajeno, ha causado un daño informático, un ciberfraude, ha realizado la conducta de pornografía infantil, la piratería digital, o ejecutado el delito de odio, en qué ámbito, o si afecta a toda la extensión de la persona jurídica, entre otros factores de difícil delimitación. Este artículo trata de realizar una aproximación al régimen de esa responsabilidad circunscrita a los delitos informáticos, a fin de sintetizar los requisitos legales y jurisprudenciales en esta materia.

Published: January 2025

La investigación estuvo orientada a determinar las evidencias psicométricas del Cuestionario de Agresión, forma reducida (AQ-SF). Participaron adolescentes de 12 a 17 años, divididos en dos grupos [n1 = 332 (Medad = 14.08, DEedad = 1.30, de 12 a 14 años = 61.4 %, mujeres = 55.4 %) y n2 = 336 (Medad = 14.07, DEedad = 1.31, de 12 a 14 años = 62.5 %, mujeres= 56 %).  Se halló que el AQ-SF presenta evidencias de validez basada en la estructura interna y de equidad por sexo y edad, pero presenta fiabilidad inaceptable en las dimensiones de agresión verbal e ira. En contraste, la versión propuesta del AQ-SF (AQ-SFb), además de las evidencias de validez y equidad, presenta evidencias de fiabilidad por dimensiones, especialmente en un formato de seis opciones de respuesta. Finalmente, se concluye que la versión propuesta (AQ-SFb) tiene más evidencias psicométricas que el AQ-SF en adolescentes peruanos.

Published: January 2025

This study aimed to analyze the association between psychosocial risk factors and psychological distress in Peruvian employees during the year 2023. A total of 201 workers participated. The study has a quantitative, basic type approach, with an empirical design, associative strategy, explanatory. The CoPsoq-istas21 Questionnaire in its version 1.5 (Moncada et al., 2014) and the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale - K10 Questionnaire (Brenlla & Aranguren, 2010) were used. In an approach to the data with structural equation modeling, it was found that the model composed of the six psychosocial risk factors explains psychological distress by 30 %. Furthermore, this model demonstrates a good fit (CFI=.946; TLI=937; RSMEA=.040; SRMR=.049), with self-esteem (β=-.27; p=.009<.05) and work-life balance (β=.13; p=.035<.05) maintaining statistically significant associations with psychological distress. On the other hand, it is women who show a greater impact compared to men in psychological demands (rbis=.281; p=004), social networks, social support, and quality of leadership (rbis=.29; p=.003), and self-esteem (rbis=.324; p<.001). In conclusion, the psychosocial risk factors of esteem and double presence explain psychological distress. Additionally, women exhibit greater psychosocial risk in terms of psychological demands, social networks, social support, and the quality of leadership and esteem.

Authors: Flores-Torres Betsy Lucerito , Ríos Trujillo Denis
Published: January 2025

The aim of this research was to examine the relationship between the dimensions of organizational citizenship behavior and years of service in a balanced sample of 150 employees, comprised of 55.3 % men and 44.7 % women. The majority of the participants were young, with 49.3 % between the ages of 18 and 30. The results reveal a dynamic and stable network, highlighting that Altruism and Civic Virtue show the strongest correlation (r = .38), suggesting that a strong commitment to organizational goals promotes altruistic behaviors. In contrast, Years of Service and Altruism present a significant negative correlation (r = -.31), indicating that employees with less seniority tend to exhibit greater altruism. In terms of centrality indices, Sportsmanship stands out as the behavior with the greatest sum of weighted connections, suggesting a predominant role in influencing other behaviors. Additionally, Altruism not only shows a strong correlation with Civic Virtue but also has the greatest expected influence in the network, reflecting a generally positive impact. In conclusion, these findings provide a detailed view of how various behaviors influence work dynamics and offer valuable insights for human resource management in promoting a collaborative and positive work environment.

El objetivo del estudio fue determinar si el funcionamiento familiar y la autoeficacia académica predicen la procrastinación académica en adolescentes peruanos. Se realizó un estudio asociativo-predictivo con 609 adolescentes (54.5% hombres y 45.5% mujeres) con una edad promedio de 14.6 (D.E. = 1.4). Para medir las variables se utilizó la Escala de Funcionamiento Familiar (APGAR), Escala de Autoeficacia Percibida Específica de Situaciones Académicas (EAPESA) y la Escala de Procrastinación Académica (EPA). Se encontró que el funcionamiento familiar (β = -.400; p < .01) y la autoeficacia académica (β = -.607; p < .01) son predictores de la procrastinación, siendo la autoeficacia académica la que muestra mayor capacidad predictiva sobre la procrastinación de los participantes.

Published: January 2025

Antiepileptic drugs can cause a variety of adverse skin reactions, from mild and transient maculopapular rash to severe and life-threatening reactions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome or even toxic epidermal necrolysis. Lamotrigine is a new-generation aromatic antiepileptic drug whose effectiveness has been observed not only in the treatment of epilepsy but also in other disorders, such as bipolar disorder. However, this medication, like older-generation antiepileptic drugs, can cause severe skin eruptions, which limits the use of this drug in clinical practice. The main risk factors for the development of lamotrigine-related skin reactions are a high initial dose of the drug, a sudden increase in the dose of the drug, combined treatment with valproic acid, a history of skin reactions associated with the use of other antiepileptic drugs, and an age under 13 years old. Neurologists and psychiatrists should strictly follow the guidelines before prescribing this agent and apply the principles of slow titration at the beginning of treatment. To prevent significant, life-threatening consequences and control adverse events as effectively as feasible, interdisciplinary collaboration with dermatovenereologists and doctors from other specialties, early diagnosis, intense symptomatic therapy, and timely treatment are essential. The purpose of this article is to review the prevalence, clinical presentation, and recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of lamotrigine-induced adverse skin reactions.
NSAIDs and Triptans – a (not) New Treatment Option for Migraine
Authors: Kakta B. , Mameniškienė Rasa
Published: January 2025

Every day, around 7% of population will experience headache caused by migraine. Migraine is one of the leading causes of years lived with disability, and it also causes significant negative economic impact, as most as the affected population is of working age. Pathogenesis of migraine includes neurogenic inflammation, which, in turn, causes peripheral sensitization of trigeminal nerve mechanoreceptors. As peripheral sensitization lingers on, central sensitization of the spinal trigeminal nucleus occurs. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and triptans are first line treatment of a migraine attack. Nevertheless, when used in combination, these medications deliver a synergistic action. In this article, we review a combination of sumatriptan and naproxen sodium for the treatment of migraine headache as an underused treatment option in Lithuania.

Pharmacotherapy, Lifestyle Modification, and Cardiac Rehabilitation after Myocardial Infarction or Percutaneous Intervention
Authors: Nguyen Nicholas , Michelis Katherine C
Published: January 2025

Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death in the US, and approximately 25% of MIs occurring each year are reinfarctions. Due to advances in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and medical therapy, patients with prior MIs live longer but may be susceptible to additional cardiac events. Thus, secondary prevention after MI or PCI is key to improving mortality and quality of life. This review discusses pharmacotherapies and lifestyle interventions with a special focus on cardiac rehabilitation in the post-MI or PCI period to improve cardiovascular outcomes.

Aim: This study aimed to examine the correlations between specific urethral function parameters observed in urodynamic testing and selected urethral characteristics evaluated by pelvic floor ultrasonography. Addition- ally, the presence of urethral funneling during straining was evaluated in female patients referred for surgical treatment of stress urinary incontinence. Material and methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 192 female patients referred for surgical treatment of stress urinary incontinence with the use of retropubic tension-free vaginal tape. Maximum urethral closure pressure and functional urethral length were evaluated urodynamically during resting profilometry. Ultrasound measurements, along with the assessment of funnel- ing, were performed as part of the pelvic floor examination, following the technique described by Kociszewski. Patients with clinically significant pelvic organ prolapse, a history of anterior compartment surgery, prior ra- diotherapy, or symptoms of overactive bladder were excluded from the analysis. Results: The values obtained from urodynamic and ultrasound examinations were evaluated statistically. No correlation was identified be- tween the analyzed urodynamic and ultrasound parameters. Long urethral funneling was confirmed in all patients with stress urinary incontinence assessed as eligible for the placement of tension-free vaginal tape. Conclusions: The results indicate that urodynamic and ultrasound examinations assess distinct aspects of ure- thral anatomy and function, and therefore their findings cannot be used interchangeably. Long urethral funnel- ing assessed during pelvic floor ultrasonography was noted in all patients with clinically and urodynamically confirmed stress urinary incontinence

Metagenomic analysis of microbial diversity in sucuk, a traditional Turkish dry-fermented sausage, and its relationship with organic acid compounds
Authors: Soyuçok Ali
Published: January 2025

Sucuk is a traditional Turkish fermented meat product that is widely consumed in Türkiye. The aim of this study was to determine the microbial diversity and organic acid profile and to elucidate their mutual relationship. The most abundant phylum in sucuk was Firmicutes, followed by Proteobacteria and Cyanobacteria phyla. The most abundant genera in sucuk were Lactobacillus, Pediococcus, and Staphylococcus. Acetic, lactic, and tartaric acids were found in all sucuk samples. Tartaric and lactic acids were positively correlated with microbial diversity parameters. Furthermore, tartaric acid was found to be an indicator of the presence of a rare genus, while lactic acid was found to be an indicator of a balanced distribution among genus and the dominance of some genus. This study for the first time showed that the microbiota of fermented Turkish sausage will be an important contribution to future studies.
