Background: The normal values of nerve conduction studies (NCS) are different in children compared to adults. Moreover, racial and geographical factors can affect these values. Objectives: The present study aimed to investigate the normal NCS values in children of different ages. Methods: The present cross-sectional study included children referred to the Electrodiagnosis Clinic of the Children's Medical Center in Iran, who had normal NCS results based on the references and had no exclusion criteria. The patients were divided into 8 age groups (7 days to one month, 1 - 3 months, 3 - 6 months, 6 - 12 months, 1 - 2 years, 2 - 4 years, 4 - 6 years, and 6 - 14 years), and the NCS was performed using a Nihon Kohden electromyogram. The NCS values in the normal range were included in the analysis. Results: The normal ranges of amplitude and conduction velocity of 4 motor nerves (median, ulnar, deep peroneal, and tibial) and 2 sensory nerves (median and medial plantar), as well as the F-wave latency values of 2 nerves (ulnar and tibial), were established as the reference values for the pediatric patients. Conclusions: The NCS parameters of Iranian children were slightly different from the normal references reported by studies in other countries. Moreover, the SNAP and CMAP amplitudes and motor conduction velocity of these children usually reached the normal values of the adult population earlier.

Authors: Ahmadifajr Zahra , Foroghi Saeid , Toulabi Tahere , Almasian Mahamad
Published: October 2023

Background: Anxiety and non-compliance with treatment endanger the health of hemodialysis patients. Hope therapy focuses on human abilities and capabilities instead of weaknesses using a positive psychology approach. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of group hope therapy (GHT) on reducing anxiety and adherence to treatment (ATT) in hemodialysis patients. Methods: This semi-experimental study was conducted with a pre-test and post-test on 40 patients undergoing hemodialysis as consecutive non-probability sampling from among the clients of two hemodialysis centers in Khorram Abad, Iran, in 2017. Primary data of the study was collected using the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and End-Stage Renal Disease Adherence Questionnaire (ESRD-AQ) in four stages, including before the intervention, immediately after the intervention, one and three months after the intervention. Hope therapy intervention was implemented in groups of five people for eight sessions (one session per week and each session for 60 minutes) by the researcher and with the supervision and approval of a psychiatrist and a clinical psychologist. The data were analyzed in the SPSS software version 21 at the significance level (α = 0.05). In addition, Cronbach’s alpha test was used to measure the reliability of the questionnaires. Results: There was a significant difference in the mean scores of anxiety and ATT between the two stages “before the intervention" and “immediately after the intervention" (P < 0.05). In addition, there was no significant compliance with the treatment between the two stages “immediately after the intervention" and “three months after the intervention" (P < 0.05), while the average scores of Overt and covert anxiety were significant (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Based on the results, GHT effectively reduces overt and hidden anxiety and increases ATT in hemodialysis patients. Therefore, these results can help plan care for hemodialysis patients. Counseling sessions related to GHT should be offered for consecutive periods in educational and treatment centers by people with experience and training in working with hemodialysis patients.

Carlos González Lobo... Caminos hacia lo alternativo dentro del ámbito conceptual, proyectual y contextual de la arquitectura
Authors:   , González Ortiz Humberto
Published: October 2023

El objetivo principal de esta Tesis Doctoral es el de ofrecer una lectura alternativa o paralela al quehacer arquitectónico actual en América Latina en general y analizar las propuestas del arquitecto mexicano Carlos González Lobo en particular. Me interesa destacar no la figura de un arquitecto como redentor arquitectónico, sino sentar el antecedente de cómo es posible desde la propuesta arquitectónica, ofrecer soluciones técnicas y estéticas definitivas a los pobladores pobres en el marco actual latinoamericano. La presente investigación esta dividida en 4 Partes.

En la PARTE 1. ESTUDIO PRELIMINAR. REFERENCIAS CULTURALES Y ARQUITECTÓNICAS, se realiza la descripción de los referentes en los cuales, Carlos González Lobo basa parte del fundamento teórico de sus propuestas. Me recreo en una especie de "genealogía" a través de la cual, quiero evidenciar "otra manera de enfocar la investigación en arquitectura". Y que parte necesariamente, de la realidad tanto cultural, como social y arquitectónica en que el arquitecto se desenvuelve, y que le influye e impulsa a asumir una posición arquitectónica crítica, con esa realidad concreta.

En la PARTE 2. LA PROPUESTA ARQUITECTÓNICA DE CARLOS GONZÁLEZ LOBO, se realiza una breve revisión de la situación actual de la arquitectura latinoamericana y la autoconstrucción, así como una revisión de los antecedentes formales de los sistemas constructivos que para cubiertas de bajo coste propone Carlos González Lobo, así como sus ventajas y sus carencias. Además una descripción general de estos procedimientos constructivos para usuarios de escasos recursos.

En la PARTE 3. ESTUDIO DE CASOS: TRES OBRAS DE CARLOS GONZÁLEZ LOBO, analizo tres obras representativas de Carlos González Lobo, analizando todas los condicionantes que envuelven al proyecto para entender las propuestas hechas por Carlos González Lobo.

En LA PARTE 4.CONCLUSIONES, se presentan los avances que ha alcanzado Carlos González Lobo a partir de los hallazgos "de otros" arquitectos, en su obra arquitectónica. Menciono también las futuras posibles investigaciones a partir del contenido presentado en esta Tesis doctoral.

Para concluir se presentan las fuentes consultadas en el apartado de BIBLIOGRAFÍA y un pequeño EPÍLOGO como una reflexión personal acerca de mi experiencia en el desarrollo de la presente Tesis doctoral.
Per una scienza architettonica del pattern?
Authors:   , Zappulla Carmelo
Published: October 2023

The basic premise of this work is to consider architecture as the result of the interrelationship between its constituent parts: aesthetic, tectonics, social, environmental , cultural, and organizational. When the project is focused only on one or a few of these levels, this is when hollow formalisms are generated.
The main aim here is to demonstrate that patterns are able to facilitate the interaction and integration ofthese constituents. The rise of computation in architecture has had the effect of diluting the natural thought process of the architect. This paper therefore, helps to fill that theoretical void in parametric design. Hence, new tools are needed to analyse and understand architectural phenomena.
For this to happen, the relationship between mathematical models and architecture needs to be cemented, and from here on after, pattern needs to be seen as an invaluable component of architecture. A methodology based on my belief that Complexity Theory could be the basis for interpreting architecture and pattern as structure, in order to transform the abstract into reality.

ABSTRACT

This research delves into the implications of incorporating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in business accounting processes, specifically focusing on Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) and small entrepreneurs in Ecuador, while adding an academic perspective on the subject. Using a mixed-methods approach that combines case studies, document reviews, and expert interviews, the study explores both the opportunities and challenges presented by AI applications in accounting. The findings reveal not only the significant improvement in operational efficiency, decision-making accuracy, and financial sustainability but also highlight the importance of integrating these advancements into the academic curricula in business and management sciences. While technological, regulatory, and financial barriers exist, they are not insurmountable and can be mitigated through strategic planning and informed investments. The study concludes by recommending that educational institutions incorporate AI-related accounting courses to equip future professionals with the skills needed in the evolving business landscape. It also calls for policy intervention to create a conducive environment for AI adoption. This article contributes to the existing academic corpus and provides practical guidelines for both the effective implementation of AI in business accounting and its integration into higher education curricula.

Authors: KARA Hakan , GÜVEN Serhan
Published: October 2023

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Weber’in görüş ve düşünceleri temelinde karizma kavramına yapılan eleştirileri, önerileri ve katkıları araştırmaktır. Amaç doğrultusunda araştırma soruları ve doküman analizi olmak üzere ikili bir bütünleşik nitel yöntem izlenmiştir. Araştırma sorularının yanıtları için alanyazında Weber’in karizma kavramı üzerine yapılmış çalışmaların bulgularına başvurulmuştur. Elde edilen bulguları sistematize etmek ve karizma kavramına yönelik eleştirileri, önerileri ve katkıların teorik kritiğini yapmak için doküman analizinden yararlanılmıştır. Bulguların kritiği, karizmanın atfedildiği lider, takipçiler ve koşullar gibi üç unsur üzerinde yoğunlaşmaktadır. Karizma kavramının kökenlerine ilişkin bulguların kritiği sürmüş olsa da kavram üzerindeki kritiğin temelini Weber’in görüş ve düşüncelerinin oluşturduğu söylenebilir. Her ne kadar karizma kavramı, Weber’in yirminci yüzyılının başlangıcına tarihlenerek genel kabul görmüş olsa da alanyazından ulaşılan kaynaklar üzerinden karizma kavramına eleştiri, öneri ve katkılar temelinde kritiğinin yakın tarihe kadar sürdüğü izlenmektedir. Bu durumun dünyada (kriz/değişim/yenilik) güncelliğini koruduğu için karizma kavramına olan ilgiyi gösterdiği düşünülmektedir.

Authors: Özdemir Nurettin , Yıldız Emrah
Published: October 2023

Günümüzde yaşanan rekabet ortamı her geçen gün ağırlaşırken işletmelerin ayakta kalmalarını da zorlaştırmaktadır. Süreklilik kavramı gereği rekabet edebilmek ve faaliyetlerinin sürdürülebilirliğini sağlamak isteyen işletmeler, yatırım faaliyetlerine ağırlık vermek zorunda kalmaktadır. Bu noktada işletmelerin finansman kaynağı ihtiyacı ortaya çıkmaktadır. Öncelikle öz kaynaklardan karşılan finansman ihtiyacı bazen de yabancı kaynaklardan karşılanabilmektedir. Öz kaynakların yetersiz olmasının dışında yabancı kaynak kullanım maliyetinin öz kaynak kullanım maliyetinden düşük olması, yabancı kaynak kullanımı ile daha büyük bir yapıya sahip olunması ve yabancı kaynak kullanımı sonucunda ortaya çıkan faiz giderlerinin vergi matrahını ve dolayısıyla da ödenecek vergi yükümlülüğünün azaltması gibi nedenler işletmeleri yabancı kaynak kullanımına iten nedenler arasında sayılabilmektedir. Bahsedilen nedenlerden dolayı finansman ihtiyacını banka, kredi kuruluşları, satıcılar, diğer kişi ya da kuruluşları gibi yabancı kaynaklardan karşılayan işletmeler, faiz ve diğer giderlerden oluşan borçlanma maliyetlerine katlanmaktadırlar. İşletmelerin finansal durumunu ve finansal performansını doğrudan etkileyen borçlanma maliyetleri, finansal raporlama çerçevelerinde düzenleme altına alınmıştır. Bu çalışmada, finansal raporlama çerçevelerinde yer alan borçlanma maliyetlerine ilişkin hükümlerin incelenmesi ve bu hükümler doğrultusunda borçlanma maliyetlerinin muhasebeleştirilmesine ilişkin esasların ortaya konması amaçlanmıştır. Bu kapsamda borçlanma maliyetlerine konu olan varlığın geçerli finansal raporlama çerçevelerine göre özellikli varlık olup olmaması ve aktifleştirme koşullarını taşıyıp taşımaması açısından muhasebeleştirilmesi ele alınmış olup borçlanma maliyetlerinin finansal durum tablosu veya kâr zarar tablosu kalemlerinde nasıl sunuldukları ortaya konmuştur.

Published: October 2023

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Global Health Department at Touro University California College of Osteopathic Medicine adapted its curriculum to deliver it virtually for the first time. We enrolled 25 first- and second-year medical students in a Global Health elective of 12 sessions in the Spring of 2021. Students received pre-recorded video lectures and study materials for each session, followed by live interactions with international preceptors. We analyzed the effectiveness of virtual sessions and overall learning outcomes by using 1) a self-proctored multiple-choice quiz administered before and after each session for eight sessions and 2) true-false surveys at the end of each session for ten sessions. Students’ mean score on pre-session quizzes was 56.33% (standard deviation of 1.72%), with individual quiz scores ranging between 42.22% and 79.53%. However, after live interactions via Zoom, students performed significantly better, with a mean score of 89.55% (p <0.001, standard deviation of 1.78%) and individual quiz scores between 69.08% and 100%. When surveyed about their attitudes towards provided topics and study materials and confidence in discussing the topics and their future implications, students’ response was positive, between 95.8% and 99.3%, with an overall survey response rate of 96.7%. We believe that virtual learning provided an effective platform to address global health competencies during the COVID-19 pandemic. It can, therefore, be an effective model for maintaining the engagement of health science students in global health education.
30,000 Feet Overview of Lifestyle Medicine
Authors: Sai P Rama , Prasad Chaya
Published: October 2023

Chronic diseases account for the highest morbidity and mortality among adults and, increasingly, adolescents and young adults in the United States. This imposes great economic stress on the healthcare system. Chronic diseases can largely be attributed to several key harmful lifestyle behaviors, including poor diet, low physical activity, substance abuse, and stress, to mention just a few. Recent research demonstrates that sustained healthy lifestyle behaviors can not only prevent and treat but may even reverse many of these chronic diseases. The American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM) defines Lifestyle Medicine (LM) as "the use of evidence-based lifestyle therapeutic intervention—including a whole-food, plant-predominant eating pattern, regular physical activity, restorative sleep, stress management, avoidance of risky substances, and positive social connection—as a primary modality, delivered by clinicians trained and certified in this specialty, to prevent, treat, and often reverse chronic disease.” ACLM has worked to establish and update LM core competencies over the last decade. Many training programs have adopted evidence-based LM didactic and clinical training across various health professions students to ensure trainees meet these competencies. We aim to provide a brief overview of LM, discuss the six pillars of LM: nutrition, physical activity, avoidance of risky substances, restorative sleep, stress reduction, and positive social connection, and discuss their significance in wellness from the patient’s and the physician’s perspectives.

URGENSI PENILAI PEMERINTAH DALAM PENGALIHAN HAK ATAS TANAH ULAYAT DI PAPUA
Authors: Fahmi Yansyah Muhammad , Kurniawan Triatmojo Muhammad , Panuturi Silalahi Rody
Published: October 2023

Dewasa ini, banyak terjadi sengketa yang berkaitan dengan hak atas tanah ulayat baik antara beberapa suku yang bersinggungan pada suatu bidang tanah, ataupun atas penyerahan tanah ulayat kepada pemerintah daerah. Salah satu penyebab timbulnya sengketa tanah ulayat adalah karena ganti rugi yang dianggap tidak sepadan dengan nilai tanah ulayat yang sebenarnya. Ketidaksepadanan nilai ganti rugi inilah yang mendesak kebutuhan akan profesi penilai dalam mengestimasi besar rupiah yang dianggap adil. Tujuan Penelitian ini adalah untuk memberi gambaran urgensi peran Penilai Pemerintah dalam penentuan nilai tanah hak ulayat masyarakat adat di Papua, menjelaskan tentang kewenangan penilai dalam melakukan penilaian tanah hak ulayat masyarakat adat di Papua, serta mengurai faktor apa saja yang turut menentukan besar nilai ganti rugi atas pelepasan hak dari sebuah tanah ulayat masyarakat adat di Papua. Penelitian ini menggunakan teknik studi kepustakaan dalam mengumpulkan data primer. Penelitian ini menggunakan data dan informasi dari berbagai sumber bacaan buku, jurnal, peraturan perundang-undangan, artikel, dan literatur dari media elektronik. Hasil Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa peran Penilai Pemerintah dalam penentuan nilai ganti rugi atas tanah hak ulayat masyarakat adat Papua sangat penting, Penilai Pemerintah berwenang melakukan penilaian salah satunya terhadap barang yang akan menjadi Barang Milik Negara/Daerah melalui cara pembelian, pembebasan, atau hibah tanpa perolehan, faktor yang menentukan nilai ganti rugi dari pelepasan tanah antara lain faktor fisik meliputi kehilangan tanah, kehilangan bangunan, kehilangan pusat kehidupan dan pusat budaya masyarakat. Sedangkan faktor nonfisik meliputi kehilangan pendapatan dan sumber penghidupan.

Telecomunicações e sua relação com a IoT
Authors: Batista Araújo Débora
Published: October 2023

As novas funcionalidades de gerenciamento da rede de telefonia celular trazidas pelo 5G permitem segmentação de rede, virtualização e desvinculação entre hardware e software, de maneira a praticamente criar várias redes dentro de uma só. Este é um importante habilitador dos casos de uso da Internet das Coisas. Isso traz também desafios relacionados com a mudança na atuação de cada stakeholder do ecossistema de conectividade, demandando olhar atento a respeito do papel de cada um e das consequências de mercado e geopolíticas. O presente artigo discorre sobre a novel forma de conexão entre dispositivos, ao passo que busca ilustrar os desafios decorrentes da abertura, a vários players, do acesso às redes de telecomunicações (o Open RAN – Radio Access Network).
IoT e metaverso: conexão como lema
Authors: Daneluzzi Quinelato Pietra , de Freitas Miele Aluísio
Published: October 2023

O cenário tecnológico vivenciado não é apenas disruptivo. Esta quebra do “percurso normal” é diária e traz, nesta mesma velocidade, inovações que proporcionam novas oportunidades e criam melhorias para a vida em sociedade, em paralelo à criação de fissuras como no que diz respeito à proteção de dados pessoais. Neste sentido, por meio de abordagem metodológica qualitativa e documental indireta, o presente artigo aborda o conceito da IoT e suas aplicações, o universo imersivo do metaverso, a interação entre esses dois ecossistemas e a necessidade de (re)pensar a arquitetura jurídica digital. Para tanto, demonstrou-se como a web3, ao prometer um ambiente descentralizado, seguro e global, contribui para uma realidade cada vez mais imersiva e permite a interação entre IoT e metaverso. Neste universo imersivo, em que “coisas” se conectam entre si e com o indivíduo, intensifica-se a quantidade de dados pessoais coletados, principalmente pelos wearables. Assim, medidas de transparência e ética, além de garantias aos direitos fundamentais devem acompanhar todo este desenvolvimento tecnológico.
Transparência de direito e transparência de fato no tratamento de dados pessoais em IoT: um olhar sobre a aplicação da ISO 31700 e da ética sustentável
Authors: Monte Serrat Cabella Daniela , Motta Monte-Serrat Dionéia
Published: October 2023

Impactos da IoT requerem transparência material em relação ao tratamento de dados. A ISO 31700 integra tecnologia, Privacy by Design (Cavoukian, 2011), gestão de riscos e a relação mutável e contextual entre usuário e organização. Considerando o aspecto dinâmico da ética sustentável sob a perspectiva relacional, propomos conceito que integra todos esses elementos. Sua prática acelera o desenvolvimento da inovação, viabiliza a sustentabilidade, consistência e confiabilidade à organização, seus produtos e serviços a longo prazo, e evita percalços antiéticos, ausência da transparência de fato e suas consequências.

This paper, dedicated to Acad. Florin Gheorghe Filip, at his 15th anniversary as the Chairman of the Information Science and Technology Section of the Romanian Academy, suggests an approach to describe the data obtained in biomonitoring studies using mosses, on the example of the Republic of Moldova. In total, 33 moss samples were collected on the territory of Moldova, the elemental composition of which was determined by neutron activation analysis and atomic absorption spectrometry. At the first stage of the work, a correlation analysis was carried out with the ranking of data in the order of decreasing total correlation, which made it possible to preliminarily reduce the number of elements to two factors. At the stage of data sorting, iron, the content of which in the environment can be associated with anthropogenic activity, was chosen as the element determining the rank. The next stage of work was data smoothing using a discrete cosine transform, for which the codes were rewritten and the algorithm was ported to the Excel-VBA environment, which is most suitable for preprocessing and graphical display of experimental data. Also, an algorithm was developed for determining the number of linearly independent (basis) vectors in which the matrix itself can be decomposed. Two principal roots were identified, of which the larger one is several thousand units, and three lower roots, which are less than unit were excluded, since their absolute values differ by two to three or more orders of magnitude downward from the eigenvalues of the influencing components. The paper is dedicated to Acad. Florin Gheorghe Filip, at his 15th anniversary as the Chairman of the Information Science and Technology Section of the Romanian Academy, and at his 75th anniversary.

Al deterioro cognitivo se lo considera como un punto intermedio entre los cambios propios del envejecimiento y un estado precoz de demencia y existe disminución de las funciones cerebrales superiores. Los tests neuropsicológicos, tienen por finalidad analizar conductas observables.  Es por ello que la evaluación neuropsicológica juega un papel importante en el diagnóstico del deterioro cognitivo. El objetivo de esta revisión es describir las principales pruebas neuropsicológicas empleadas en el tamizaje del deterioro cognitivo en las personas mayores. Las técnicas de recolección de datos fueron la búsqueda de referencias bibliográficas de los últimos cinco años en bases de datos como PubMed, Elsiever, Dialnet, Google Schoolar; y revistas como Scielo. Las pruebas neuropsicológicas son herramientas de cribado, y se presentan como un método sustituto para distinguir a quienes pueden cumplir criterios de patología neurodegenerativa de quienes no muestran cambios.
