Moderated Mediating Effect of Behavioral Psychology on Generation Z’s Selfie-Posting Behavior: A Two-Stage Analytical Approach
Authors: Roy Sanjoy Kumar , Arefin Shamsun , Khan Md. Rahat
Published: October 2024

The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating and moderating effects of body appreciation and exhibitionism on the relationships between self-esteem, narcissism, and Selfie Posting Behavior (SPB), as well as on the moderating effect of attitude towards selfies (ATS) from the Generation Z perspective. The research comprised 414 samples through convenience sampling. The empirical data were analyzed using a hybrid SEM-artificial neural network (SEM-ANN) approach. The sensitivity analysis outcomes discovered that body appreciation has the most considerable effect on the SPB, with 89.18% normalized importance, followed by narcissism (87.02%), exhibitionism (72.66%), and self-esteem (48.95%). Body appreciation and exhibitionism independently and sequentially mediated the relationships between self-esteem and SPB, as well as narcissism and SPB. In addition, attitude moderated the relationship between exhibitionism and SPB but not the relationship between body appreciation and SPB. The study results emphasize the importance of recognizing the moderating mechanisms that affect the mediated pathways between self-esteem and SPB, as well as between narcissism and SPB. Based on these findings, the study outlined several applicable ramifications for educators, professionals, service providers, designers, and developers.
Flourishing Among Emerging Adulthood: A Perspective From Anchor Personality
Authors: Istiqomah Alifah Nur , Riyono Bagus
Published: October 2024

The purpose of well-being theory in positive psychology is to help people achieve flourishing conditions. Personality is an essential factor influencing flourishing, but no research has examined the relationship between anchor personality and flourishing. Anchor is something that is trusted as a mainstay in solving problems. With that in mind, this study aimed to determine the relationship between anchor virtues, materials, self, and others on flourishing among emerging adulthood. This current research used a non-experimental quantitative method by online survey. The research participants are Indonesian citizens aged 18–25 years. The results showed that virtue was the only anchor that predicted overall flourishing positively and significantly. Anchor virtues also significantly predicted each flourishing elements separately. Anchor self and materials did not predict flourishing significantly, while anchor others predicted flourishing negatively. This study empirically proves the importance of emerging adulthood in adhering to virtues to achieve a flourishing condition. When an individual places virtues as the main anchor, they hold on to an anchor with high abstraction power, not limited by space and time and universal; so that stability and positively impact well-being can be achieved.
Transformation Patterns of the Psyche’s Regulatory Subsystem in the Context of Digitalization
Authors: Karpov Anatoliy V. , Karpov Alexander A. , Volchenkova Anastasia A.
Published: October 2024

This study examines the impact of digitalization on the formation and development of the regulatory subsystem, which is a key component of the human psyche. The findings reveal that digitalization has a significant and complex influence on this subsystem, operating at two complementary levels: analytical and structural. The analytical level reflects a profound decrease in the development of the subsystem’s individual components, including essential regulatory processes and their associated qualities. This decline raises concerns about the capacity of individuals to effectively manage their cognitive and emotional resources in a digital context. In contrast, the structural level involves meaningful transformations in the organization, structuring, and integration of these components. These changes indicate a shift in how the regulatory subsystem operates, suggesting that digitalization is reshaping the very foundation of psychological regulation. As a result of this complex influence, a new phenomenon emerges, referred to as the syndrome of reduced personality regulation. This syndrome holds significant implications for overall personality development and regulatory potential, sharing similarities with previously identified syndromes of decreased cognition and metacognition. The structural transformations in the regulatory subsystem, influenced by digitalization, primarily manifest as changes in the degree of organization and integration, rather than qualitative alterations. The qualitative aspects remain invariant and resist the pervasive effects of digitalization, suggesting the subsystem’s resilience that may offer avenues for further exploration and intervention.
From ‘dankgevingsdag' to 'turkey party’: Historical sociolinguistic perspectives on loan strategies in Flemish-American heritage newspapers
Authors: Crombez Yasmin
Published: October 2024

Within the domain of historical sociolinguistics, attention for heritage languages has been on the rise in the last decade (see e.g., Brown 2019; Litty 2019). The goal of this paper is to contribute to that growing body of research studying the role of sociolinguistic factors in heritage language use in the past, by looking at the lexical output of Belgian emigrants in the United States using heritage newspapers. We will investigate the borrowing patterns in three Flemish-American newspapers that were published in the 19th and 20th centuries and circulated widely within the Flemish-American communities. We focus on (1) borrowing rate (how many English-origin lexemes are transferred?), and (2) borrowing type (which loan processes are involved?). The findings are interpreted in terms of the social variables time and space to chart diachronic as well as regional differences, besides looking at differences between the newspapers more generally.
What's left when a language recedes? Belonging and place-making in the linguistic landscape of Hancock, Michigan
Authors: Remlinger Kathryn A. , Karinen Kayleigh
Published: October 2024

Our study examines how meanings related to Finnishness are reflected in the linguistic landscape of Hancock, Michigan, a small town in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Centering on Benedict Anderson’s (1983/2003) concept, imagined communities, we investigate how discursive strategies in public spaces index belonging and place-making. The social correlates that underpin this reimagining affect ways of understanding larger sociocultural meanings about identity, place, and language use (Cornips & de Rooij 2015; Blommaert 2013; Bucholtz & Hall 2004; Leeman & Modan 2009). We aim to answer three questions: 1) how is Finnishness discursively indexed in Hancock’s linguistic landscape?; 2) how are meanings represented as recognizable and valued?; and 3) what are the ideological effects of the discursive practices and related meanings? Our analysis demonstrates that both linguistic and metalinguistic practices are abundant in Hancock. The ideological effects of Finnishness in the landscape reinforce values of Finnish identity and language, while simultaneously erasing (Gal & Irvine 2000) languages and identities of other residents, past and present. The collective discursive practices function ideologically to affect belonging and place-making.

Authors: Ferrer-Blas Rosita Iselda , Galarcep-Barba Indira , Solano-Gaviño Juan Carlos
Published: October 2024

In a changing environment, efficiency and adaptability are essential to improve business competitiveness. The present study analyzed the application of Lean Manufacturing in food production through a review of the scientific literature based in Scopus, using the PRISMA methodology and the Vosviewer and Bibliometrix software. From the bibliometric analysis, there is evidence of an increase in research on Lean Manufacturing in food companies since 2019, with an annual growth rate of 5.96%. Brazil and Peru stand out for their high scientific production, while Brazil and Belgium stand out in terms of citations. In addition, outstanding scientific collaboration between authors from South America and Asia is observed. Three relevant clusters were identified: principles, implementation tools and practical applications of Lean Manufacturing. The thematic mapping highlighted the concepts Cost Reduction, Process Monitoring, Six Sigma and Value Stream Mapping as the most prominent topics underlining the interest and applications in the scientific literature. The implementation of Lean Manufacturing in seven steps is proposed, facilitating the use of agile tools for process optimization and waste reduction in food companies. Lean Manufacturing contributes to improve the flow of products in the supply chain and to the sustainability of small and medium enterprises. Future research should focus on adapting Lean Manufacturing to various contexts and business models in the agri-food sector.

Published: October 2024

Sustainable watershed management stands at the forefront of global efforts to tackle pressing environmental and socio-economic challenges. This study offers a pioneering assessment of the state of research on Peru's watersheds, integrating geographical, environmental, and socio-economic dimensions. By harnessing cutting-edge bibliometric tools, including Bibliometrix and VOSviewer, and adhering to PRISMA guidelines for a systematic review, this work maps the scientific landscape of watershed management in Peru. Utilizing comprehensive databases such as Scopus and Web of Science, the study identifies and analyses key thematic clusters, revealing an escalating focus on the urgent issues of climate change and urbanization, particularly within the critical Rimac River Basin. This basin, vital to the water supply of Lima, the world's second-largest desert city, faces severe threats from pollution and climate instability. Our findings not only chart the evolution of research in this domain but also spotlight emerging opportunities to modernize water management practices through the integration of climate change models, advanced data monitoring, and artificial intelligence. The study makes a compelling case for a collaborative approach, urging stronger alliances among local communities, research institutions, and international stakeholders to foster more resilient and sustainable watershed management strategies in Peru. This paper provides actionable insights, making it an indispensable resource for policymakers and practitioners aiming to secure Peru's water future.
Ego Involvement and the Law of Exercise: Memorization as a Function of Ego Involvement in Folklore Scholarship and Anthropology
Authors: Hasan M El-Shamy
Published: October 2024

The article is a component in my “Folkloric Behavior”, a total innovation within my “Folkloric Behavior” (1967), which introduced a theoretical system for analyzing a folkloric phenomenon in a cognitive verifiable context. The universal psychosocial principles constituting the system were applied to a real (live) community: the ethnic Arabs living in Brooklyn, N.Y., USA, with particular emphasis on the Egyptian component. This approach stood in sharp contrast to the dominant Freudian psychoanalytic and Jungian analytical psychology theories that dominate this field. Terms, concepts, and processes offered in this innovative work are currently being used—often in isolation of their academic home and systemic links-- in various folklore fields. Examples of current usage are: “ego-involvement”, “learning process”, “extinction”, “motivation”, “intervening stimuli/cues [(re-presented as) “negotiations”, etc.). Ironically, my founding work on “Folkloric Behavior” is hardly ever evaluated or even mentioned. It would be useful to afford students of folk traditions and other readers the benefits of research objectivity of tracking the temporal sequence in which these key issues appeared in folklore scholarship. This step would be required for also establishing the history of ideas in a discipline.
Authoritarianism and civil society: Legal restrictions on Human Rights CSOs
Authors: Deák Izabella
Published: October 2024

New types of authoritarian regimes attempt to create the illusion of democracy. They therefore seek to restrict the establishment and activities of CSOs not through outright bans, but through the adoption of laws and regulations designed to systematically and methodically impede the operation of human rights CSOs. This paper, based on empirical research, classifies and analyses the registration and re-registration procedures that restrict the freedom of association of human rights CSOs, as well as the legislation that imposes registration or re-registration requirements on organisations designated as “foreign agents.” Additionally, it assesses the proportion in which democratic and authoritarian regimes use these restrictive mechanisms. The results show that the restrictions examined are predominantly used in authoritarian regimes.
Deep-Sea eDNA Sampling from Seawater with Peristaltic Pumps and Sterivex Filters v1
Authors: McCartin Luke , Herrera Santiago
Published: October 2024

This protocol details methods that can be used to filter water directly from Niskin bottles to collect environmental DNA (eDNA) samples. This method uses peristaltic pumps, sterilized tubing, and Sterivex filters to filter directly from up to 12 niskin bottles, such as those on a standard water sampling rosette, simultaneously on the deck of a ship. This approach is advantageous as it uses a closed system to decrease chances of contamination and allows for quick filtration once the Niskins are on deck to avoid drastic temperature changes and subsequent DNA degradation (McCartin paper). This document contains three main sections: 1) Materials/ Parts List, 2) Equipment/work area sterilization, and 3) Sampling from Niskins in the field. Some sections, such as sterilization between sampling events and

Published: October 2024

This protocol describes the use of Deterministic Barcoding in Tissue for spatial ATAC sequencing to construct an epigenome atlas of fixed fresh frozen human lymph node tissue samples. This approach uses a microfluidic-based method to introduce combinatorial DNA oligo barcodes directly to the cells in a tissue section fixed on a glass slide. This method spatially resolved genome-wide profiling of transposase-accessible chromatin sequencing for chromatin accessibility.This technique does not directly resolve single cells but can achieve a near-single-cell resolution for spatial epigenomic analysis.
spatial-Mux-seq v1
Authors: Guo Pengfei , Deng Yanxiang
Published: October 2024

Spatial-Mux-seq is a multi-modal spatial technology that allows simultaneous profiling of up to five different modalities, including multiple epigenomic modalities (any combination of two histone modifications and open chromatin at the same time), whole transcriptome, and a panel of proteins at tissue scale and cellular level in a spatially resolved manner. This was achieved by integrating microfluidic in situ barcoding and the nanobody-tethered transposition chemistry directly in tissue followed by high-throughput Next-Generation Sequencing.
Ghosting on Tinder: Examining Disconnectivity in Online Dating
Authors: Šiša Anamarija
Published: October 2024

This study examines the phenomenon of ghosting on the mobile dating app Tinder among Slovenia’s dating app users. Ghosting is defined as the unexpected unilateral termination of communication in interpersonal relationships exerted through digital platforms. Drawing upon data from the walkthrough of the mobile dating app Tinder and 26 semi-structured interviews with users living in Ljubljana (Slovenia), ghosting is conceptualized as an undesirable but normalized disconnection strategy on Tinder. We argue that choosing ghosting as a communication strategy emerges predominantly from two different contexts. Firstly, from the need to protect oneself from harassment and vulnerability, and secondly, as a reaction to the information overload in an environment that demands perpetual activity, availability, and interaction. Therefore, it manifests as a disconnection strategy on an interaction level or as a consequence of disconnecting from the platform itself. According to users, the desire to disconnect from others and exit the app is as high and ambiguous as the desire to connect and experience an ego boost or the excitement of interactions. Ghosting on Tinder, therefore, emerges as a response to general hyperconnectivity to navigate the increasing information overload and to a feeling of loss of the possibilities for safe and authentic connections in digital spaces.

Published: October 2024

The article analyzes the growing influence of the religious factor as a historical phenomenon of the return of religion to the theory and practice of international relations. The main characteristics of the temporal and spatial dynamics of the influence of the religious factor on international relations both within the framework of universal laws and the specifics of Islam are determined, and the consequences of this influence are clarified. Both general trends (transnationalization, deterritorialization, decentralization of religions) and specific features of the influence of the Islamic factor are identified and characterized. In the context of the changing nature of international actors, it is determined that at the present stage, religious systems are emerging on the world stage in the form of a system of transnational relations between states, religious enclaves within the borders of other states, individual groups and transnational religious movements that are established across national borders, forming an additional transnational system of interactions.

Two cases of epilepsy in patients with a rare hereditary pathology associated with a chromosomal mutation caused deletion of chromosome 14 are presented. In the first case, this pathology was manifested in the child by generalized tonic-clonic seizures, delayed psycho-verbal development, and facial skull microanomaly. In the second case, it was expressed in tonic epileptic seizures, delayed psycho-verbal development, developmental microanomalies, pyramidal atactic syndrome and hand joint hypermobility. Such clinical observations are of professional and scientific interest, as they relate to a rare neurological pathology, with drug-resistant epilepsy as a leading sign.
2023 IFCN & ILAE minimum recording standards for routine and sleep EEG. Applicability assessment in Russia
Authors: Novikova E. Yu. , Ivanov A. A.
Published: October 2024

In 2023, the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology (IFCN) and the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) published the most up-to-date recommendations for conducting EEG examinations. The document sets out minimum standards necessary to improve the accuracy, efficiency, and reliability of routine and sleep EEG recordings. At the same time, it is indicated that based on availability specific rules and methods for conducting examinations should be proposed by medical organizations or departments independently. We present a selective translation of such recommendations and an assessment of their compliance with contemporary real-world opportunities in the Russian Federation. The possible “growth points” for the EEG technique in Russia are highlighted as well.
Electroencephalographic monitoring in detection and prediction of delayed cerebral ischemia due to non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage
Authors: Okuneva I. V. , Sinkin M. V. , Evdokimov A. I. , Prirodov A. V.
Published: October 2024

Intensive care of patients with acute non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage primarily relies on diagnostics of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). The major difficulty in detecting DCI emerges upon suppression of wakefulness, when clinical assessment of growing neurological deficit becomes complicated. Widely used transcranial dopplerography allows solely to verify a vasospasm development not always leading to DCI exhibiting a multifactorial underlying mechanism. Electroencephalography (EEG) is the only broadly available instrumental tool ensuring a continuous monitoring of cerebral functional status including in subjects at intensive care unit. To date, non-specific EEG parameters pointing at development of acute cerebral injury were identified that provide varying diagnostic and predictive informative value in DCI. We reviewed publications aimed at assessing the data on visual and quantitative EEG parameters such as regional slowing, alpha rhythm spectral power and relative variability, alpha-to-delta power ratio, and detection of epileptiform activity. Having searched international and Russia-wide medical databases, we found only 7 publications quantitatively assessing diagnostic value of EEG monitoring, which showed that for DCI diagnosis its sensitivity ranged from 76% to 100%, and specificity – from 54% to 100%. We also present a clinical case with a 70-year-old female patient who underwent surgery for non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage due to a ruptured aneurysm of the communicating segment of the right internal carotid artery. During the continuous videoEEG monitoring 2 days before clinical deterioration and appearance of ischemic changes in the right cerebral hemisphere on computed tomography scans, an ictal-interictal continuum pattern was noted to emerge. Future studies should be aimed at clarifying and validating the most informative DCI biomarkers including while recording EEG with intracranial electrodes that may contribute to development of automated algorithms for DCI detection.

Published: October 2024

Background. Despite a wide range of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) with an improved pharmacological profile, patients often experience a variety of side effects during long-trem anticonvulsant therapy, among which are osteoporotic disorders. Currently, the mechanisms of AED effect on bone metabolism remain poorly understood, which creates certain difficulties in prevention and treatment of AED-induced osteoporosis.

Objective: to study bone mineral density and laboratory parameters of bone metabolism in patients with epilepsy and longterm AED administration.

Material and methods. A cross-sectional study included two comparison groups: 100 adult patients with epilepsy receiving AEDs for more than 12 months and 58 healthy volunteers without taking AEDs. All participants underwent general clinical examination, computed tomography (CT) densitometry at three time points (L1, L2 and femoral neck) and laboratory tests of mineral metabolism.

Results. According to CT-densitometry results, a decrease in bone mineral density was detected in the majority of participants from both study groups. While assessing an impact of osteoporosis risk factors on bone tissue in epileptic patients, low motor activity and duration of AED therapy were the most significant, which was associated with lower bone mineral density indices. The study of laboratory mineral metabolism indicators revealed significant inter-group differences in indicators such as ionized calcium, 25-hydroxy-calciferol, free thyroxine and prolactin (p(U)=0.044, p(U)=0.040, p(U)=0.001, p(U)=0.003, respectively).

Conclusion. The intermediate study results showed that long-term anticonvulsant use negatively affected bone metabolism in patients suffering from epilepsy. The data obtained point at need for further in-depth study of AED therapy effect on mineral metabolism.

Published: October 2024

Background. The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) has provided recommendations on the terminology of medicines for control of seizure disorders, which should be adapted into different languages.

Objective: to evaluate the usage profile of terms describing the effects of medicines used in patients with epilepsy.

Material and methods. The search query analysis systems Google Trends and Yandex Wordstat as well as PubMed/MEDLINE, Google Scholar and eLibrary databases were used to evaluate the general public and professional usage profile, respectively.

The following terms in Russian and English were studied: “antiepileptic”, “antiepileptic drug”, “antiseizure”, “antiseizure drug”. In order to ascertain a prevailing opinion within professional and patient communities, a questionnaire survey was conducted on the public online resources of the non-profit partnership “The Association of Epileptologists and Patients” carried out via the cloud-based cross-platform social media as well as instant messaging service Telegram and the social media platform VK.

Results. In the English-speaking internet segment, the term “antiepileptic” is used more than 5 times frequently than “antiseizure” by the general public. Conversely, in the Russian-language segment, the term “antiseizure” is almost 2.5 times more common. The term “antiepileptic” is more prevalent in scientific community in both segments. This finding aligns with the profile of terminology usage observed among epileptologists and epilepsy patients. The questionnaire survey results revealed that 56.42% of 179 respondents were in favor of the terms “antiepileptic drug”, “AED” and “antiepileptic therapy”, whereas as few as 17.32% of those endorsed the ILAE-proposed terminology.

Conclusion. In light of the established practice of terminology use in both professional scientific community and among practicing epileptologists and epileptic patients, as well as the differences in the semantics of English- and Russian-language terms and the identified lack of precision in the ILAE definition of epilepsy, it can be concluded that for the Russian-speaking population, the terms “antiepileptic drug”, “AED” are more preferable rather than the terms “antiseizure medication”, “ASM”. Additionally, it is preferable to use the terms “convulsive ictus” and “epileptic ictus” due to negative connotation with term “seizure” in Russian. The terms “antiseizure” and “antiepileptic” should not be regarded as mutually exclusive in the context of treatment that has a direct impact on epilepsy course. Finally, it is necessary to further refine epilepsy definition and classification.
TESLÎS ÜZERİNE SABUNÎ ELEŞTİRİSİ VE TEOLOJİK TARTIŞMALAR
Authors: Gün Faruk
Published: October 2024

Yahudilik, Hristiyanlık ve İslâm, Hz. Îsâ'nın ontolojik konumunu semavi dinlerin teolojik prizmasından farklı yorumlarla ele alır; bu da inanç sistemleri arasındaki epistemolojik çeşitliliği ve doktrinel farklılıkları ortaya koyar. Yahudilik, Îsâ'ya genellikle mesih olmadığı gerekçesiyle alt bir derece atfederken, Hristiyanlık, Îsâ'nın İlâhîliğini ve kutsallığını vurgulayarak onu Teslîs doktrininin ayrılmaz bir parçası olarak kabul eder. İslâm ise, Hz. Îsâ'yı divinitasın bir tezahürü olarak değil, ulûhiyetten münezzeh bir peygamber olarak tanımlar ve ona hem beşeriyet hem de peygamberlik makamında dengeli bir perspektif sunar. Nûreddin es-Sâbûnî, Teslîs doktrinini rasyonel bir çerçevede sorgular ve bu ilmî müzakereler neticesinde, Teslîs inancının, tek ve bölünmez olan İlahi özün mahiyetine ters düştüğünü öne sürer. Bu makale, VI. ve XII. yüzyıllar arasında yaşamış Müslüman âlim Nûreddin es-Sâbûnî'nin Hristiyanlıkta Teslîs doktrinine yönelik eleştirilerini ve dönemin Hristiyan mezheplerinin bu öğretiye ilişkin görüşlerini ele alır. Çalışmanın amacı, Yahudilik, Hristiyanlık ve İslâm'ın Hz. Îsâ, Hz. Meryem ve Rûhu’l-kudüs’ün teslîs inancındaki yerini ve Allah’la olan ilişkisinin teolojik ve doktrinel temellerini incelemektir. Yöntem olarak karşılaştırmalı teolojik analiz kullanılarak, her dinin Hz. Îsâ'ya dair yaklaşımları ve bu yaklaşımların dinler arası etkileri değerlendirilmektedir. Tarihsel olarak bazı Hristiyan mezhepleri, Meryem'e İlâhî nitelikler atfetse de ana akım Hristiyanlık onu ilâhî değil; Îsâ'nın kutsal annesi olarak görür. Kur'an'ın Meryem ve Îsâ tasviri, onların İlâhîleştirilmesini kınayarak bunu yansıtır. Kur'an ayetleriyle bilgilendirilen Sâbûnî'nin eleştirileri, özellikle Meryem ile ilgili olarak Hristiyan teslîsi hakkındaki İslâmi eleştirileri vurgular. Bu eleştiriler, Meryem'i tanrı olarak gören Collyridianlar gibi tarihsel grupları ele alır ve Hristiyan çoktanrıcılığının algılanan yönlerine yönelik geniş İslâmi eleştirileri yansıtır. Araştırma, bu teolojik farklılıkların anlaşılmasının, farklı inançlar arasında empatiyi ve doğru kavrayışı teşvik ettiğini sonucuna varır. Sâbûnî'nin çalışmaları, Hristiyan öğretilerine ilişkin İslâmi teolojik perspektifleri örnekleyerek, sahîh bilgiye katkıda bulunur.

The paper is a brief overview of the international conference «Transport Obligations in the context of Technological Development» held on June 18, 2024 at Department of Civil Law of Kutafin Moscow State Law University (MSAL) and dedicated to the memory of Professor A.G. Kalpin. More than 30 speakers—representatives of leading Russian universities, business and government authorities—attended the conference. The conference was supported by the Digital Valleys Platform Foundation for the Support and Development of Information Technologies and Digitalization of the Economy, which is the general partner of the Technopravo project implemented within the framework of the Priority-2030 academic equality program. Four out of five Dr. Sci.— experts in transport law — attended the conference. The paper provides an overview of the main speeches and reports of leading Russian lawyers on transport law in the Russian Federation. Following the results of the conference, it was emphasized that many problems of transport law identified by Professor A. G. Kalpin have not yet been solved. This circumstance, as well as the rapid technological development of the Russian Federation, necessitates the continued modernization of domestic legislation in the field of transport law, including the formation of new legal regimes in the transport industry of the Russian Federation.

Published: October 2024

The objective of this study was to ascertain the psychological underpinnings of self-harm behaviors among adolescents, with a particular emphasis on the tenets of rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT). Additionally, this study aimed to elucidate the various forms of self-harm behaviors and the underlying factors that contribute to these behaviors in adolescents. This research employed a qualitative approach with a phenomenological research design. The research subjects were students at State Senior High School 1 Batu, Indonesia, selected based on certain criteria in accordance with the research needs (purposive sampling). The results demonstrate three key aspects of the psychological dynamics of adolescents with self-harm behavior, namely cognitive, affective, and conative. These were mapped into the ABC model, which comprises three elements, namely activating events, irrational beliefs, and impacts. Forms of self-harm in adolescents include physical (slashing the hand) and non-physical (ignoring health, smoking, taking drugs, and staying up late). The background of adolescents committing self-harm behavior is influenced by both internal factors (dissatisfaction and loneliness) and external factors (family problems and modeling).

Authors: Ramli Yuni Kartika , Mu’arifa Alif
Published: October 2024

This study aims to ascertain the influence of peer attachment and self-regulated learning on the academic flow of students at Muhammadiyah senior high schools in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. This study employed a quantitative research methodology. The study sample consisted of 255 twelfth-grade students of the Muhammadiyah High Schools, selected using the stratified random sampling technique. For the measurement, three psychological scales were employed, including the academic flow scale, the peer attachment scale, and the self-regulated learning (SRL) scale. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression, with the assistance of the SPSS for Windows 23.0 program. The results of the primary hypothesis yielded an R-squared value of 0.603 with a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.01), indicating that peer attachment and self-regulated learning exert a significant influence on academic flow. The first minor hypothesis test yielded a t-value of 2.189, with a p-value of 0.030, which is less than 0.05. The second minor hypothesis test yielded a t-value of 9.779 and a p-value of 0.000, indicating a statistically significant result (p < 0.01). The statistical results demonstrate that peer attachment and self-regulated learning have a significant impact on academic flow, with each factor exerting a positive influence. The results demonstrate that self-regulated learning makes a significant contribution to academic flow, accounting for 32.67% of the variance. Similarly, peer attachment is found to have a notable impact on academic flow, explaining 3.70% of the variation.

Bacterial complications of the respiratory tract are negative prognostic factors leading to a decrease in pulmonary function, duration, and quality of life of patients with cystic fibrosis. To date, a sufficient number of studies have not been accumulated to reliably prove or reject microbiological improvement during targeted therapy.

The aim of the study was to collect continuous microbiological data from patients with cystic fibrosis in the Samara region receiving treatment with elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor + ivacaftor from November-December 2021. The article presents eight clinical observations. At the time of therapy initiation, seven patients had chronic respiratory tract infection associated with Burkholderia cenocepacia ST 208, combined with chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in two of them. One patient had a chronic P. aeruginosa infection in association with Aspergillus fumigatus.

Conclusion. An expansion of the species composition in the respiratory samples was demonstrated in all cases. The majority of patients showed microbiological improvement. Thus, biochemical and, as a result, microecological changes in the lungs against the normalization of chlorine channel function allow suggesting that key pathogens may be eradicated during the therapy with elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ ivacaftor + ivacaftor.

Published: October 2024

The severe course of infectious and inflammatory diseases of the respiratory system, high rates of morbidity and mortality among the elderly and senile aged people may be associated with respiratory sarcopenia, a new nosological form that describes age-related changes in the strength and structure of the respiratory muscles.

The aim of the review is to update the data of open access scientific sources on aspects of pathogenesis and diagnostic approaches to respiratory sarcopenia. Foreign and domestic scientific publications on this topic were analyzed from 2019 to the present. The mechanisms of respiratory sarcopenia pahogenesis were assessed in the light of its relationship with whole body sarcopenia, age-related mechanisms of aging of the respiratory system as a whole, risk factors and lifestyle aspects of the elderly. The currently proposed diagnostic algorithm for respiratory sarcopenia is considered in detail.

Conclusion. Age-related changes in muscle tissue also affect the respiratory muscles. Whole-body sarcopenia, according to some authors, may be accompanied by respiratory sarcopenia. The proposed terminology and algorithm for diagnosing this pathology require additional data accumulation and further discussion.

Published: October 2024

Pulse oximeter is a simple non-invasive equipment used to determine patient’s arterial blood oxygen saturation (SpO2). However, in some people, arterial blood gas measures (SaO2) are normal and low SpO2 values are related to hemoglobin variant rather than cardiac or pulmonary illnesses.

Aim. We present a case of thalassemia that manifested with low SpO2 and discordant SaO2.

Conclusion. When examining a patient with an unusually low SpO2, the differential diagnosis of a suspected hemoglobin variant should be investigated. Establishing an accurate diagnosis as soon as possible may help avoid unnecessary tests.
Nuevas modalidades laborales en la economía digital: un estudio empírico del trabajo de reparto en Argentina
Authors: Galván Cecilia , Wright Gaston Sebastian
Published: October 2024

La investigación ofrece un análisis detallado sobre el estado del trabajo en plataformas digitales de reparto en Argentina, centrado principalmente en dos grandes empresas: Rappi y PedidosYa, que representan el 97% del mercado de reparto en el país. Este estudio busca proporcionar datos empíricos para entender mejor este sector emergente en la economía digital. El trabajo destaca el crecimiento significativo de los repartidores en los últimos años, con un análisis de su composición demográfica. La mayoría de los repartidores son hombres jóvenes entre 18 y 24 años. Por otro lado, uno de los hallazgos más importantes es que solo el 10% de los trabajadores de plataformas de reparto en Argentina trabajan en una modalidad similar a un trabajo de tiempo completo. Además, el informe se adentra en la dinámica de ingresos de estos trabajadores, mostrando que los repartidores que dedican más horas obtienen ingresos superiores a los de trabajos tradicionales, especialmente aquellos que realizan más de 300 órdenes al mes. No obstante, también se señala una tendencia decreciente en los ingresos promedio, impulsada por el aumento de trabajadores que trabajan menos horas. Finalmente, se destaca la necesidad de adaptar las regulaciones laborales para proteger a estos trabajadores manteniendo la flexibilidad que caracteriza al sector.
Análise da composição florística do Instituto Federal da Bahia, campus Eunápolis: subsídios para um plano de manejo

A análise da composição florística de uma área é fundamental para a compreensão das formações vegetais, as quais desempenham um papel indispensável na qualidade de vida, na ecologia e na estética ambiental. Áreas verdes proporcionam diversos serviços ecossistêmicos, e instituições acadêmicas têm o potencial de promover uma arborização urbana adequada, empregando espécies nativas e aplicando conhecimento científico para tal. Nesse contexto, o presente estudo teve como objetivo realizar um levantamento florístico no Instituto Federal da Bahia (IFBA), Campus Eunápolis, com ênfase na identificação de espécies endêmicas e invasoras, visando à futura elaboração de um Plano de Manejo. As coletas foram realizadas entre agosto de 2022 e julho de 2023, totalizando 25 excursões. Os dados de cada espécie foram coletados a partir de referências bibliográficas e compilados em uma lista florística. No total, foram identificadas 100 espécies, distribuídas em 35 famílias de angiospermas. Destas, 70 foram determinadas ao nível de espécie, 20 ao nível de gênero e 10 ao nível de família. A família mais representativa foi Fabaceae, seguida por Euphorbiaceae e Asteraceae. O hábito predominante foi o herbáceo, seguido por subarbustivo e arbóreo. Em relação à origem, 39 espécies (55,71%) são nativas do Brasil, 14 (20%) são exóticas cultivadas e 17 (24,29%) estão naturalizadas. Apenas cinco espécies (7,14%) são endêmicas do Brasil, enquanto 65 (92,86%) não apresentam endemismo. Os resultados indicam que, embora a maioria das espécies presentes no campus seja nativa do Brasil, há uma alta prevalência de espécies exóticas e naturalizadas, além de um baixo índice de endemismo. Esses fatores reforçam a necessidade de um plano de manejo que diagnostique e caracterize a arborização do campus. Este estudo fornecerá subsídios para a elaboração desse plano, priorizando o uso de espécies do bioma local e recomendando a substituição gradual das espécies exóticas por nativas.

Mal banal y conciencia: una relectura desde Hannah Arendt y Tomás de Aquino
Authors: Barrios-Andrade Diego
Published: October 2024

La tesis de este artículo es que el mal banal se refiere a una conciencia deformada. Las obras de la misma Arendt dan lugar a una comprensión así del mal banal. Aunque distintos autores han subrayado la importancia de la conciencia en la formación de la banalidad del mal, ninguno ha optado por definirla de esta manera hasta donde se ve. Tampoco lo hizo Arendt, según se sabe. La filósofa alemana liga pensamiento y conciencia; entiende a esta como un subproducto de aquel. Por eso no puede abandonarse la otra definición del mal banal, aquella que lo relaciona con la incapacidad para pensar. Arendt privilegia esta definición y no concluye la otra. Sin embargo, el pensamiento, tal como lo entiende Arendt, en su función de apartar al hombre del mal y juzgar los hechos de la experiencia, viene a semejarse a la conciencia, ya que esta tiene también este cometido. Además, la conciencia opera de manera dialógica, al modo como Arendt plantea que lo hace el pensar. Arendt no aclara cómo el pensar conduce al hombre a la verdad moral sobre sus actos, ni cómo aquel puede desvirtuarse. Tampoco indaga a profundidad en la conciencia. Todo esto ha motivado que se la interprete desde santo Tomás, en quien pueden hallarse algunos aportes claves para resolver algunas preguntas que Arendt dejó abiertas sobre el mal banal.
