Published: February 2025

Background: Competency-based education models (CBEM) are gaining growing importance in the qualification of healthcare professionals. However, the need for a pharmaceutical CBEM in Germany, particularly a competency-based Subject Catalogue (SC), remains controversial and has not been previously explored. Hence, a survey was conducted to evaluate the expectations of German pharmacy students regarding this topic.
Methods: An anonymous online survey was administered between December 2022 and January 2023 to all pharmacy students in Germany. The questionnaire primarily used a 4-point Likert scale ranging from “disagree” to “agree”.
Results: The majority of participants (N = 605) expected benefits from a competency-based SC. More than 90% supported a detailed and precise formulation of learning objectives, along with additional elements, such as competency levels and application examples.
Conclusion: The study provides recommendations to improve the SC, facilitating pharmacy students’ preparation for the first state examination. Furthermore, findings highlight the need for better integrating theoretical knowledge into application-related content.
VIOLÊNCIA LENTA SOBRE AS POPULAÇÕES URBANO-RIBEIRINHAS: O CASO DO CÓRREGO DO LEITÃO EM BELO HORIZONTE-MG (1894-1975)
Authors: Borsagli Alessandro , Melo Bernardes Brenda , Sérgio Marques Amaro
Published: February 2025

O artigo analisa, a partir do conceito de “violência lenta” de Rob Nixon, alguns dos processos que levaram à expulsão da população ribeirinha do vale do córrego do Leitão, em Belo Horizonte, entre os anos de 1894 e 1975. A inserção do curso d’água no traçado planejado da cidade, ocorrida ao longo do processo de evolução urbana da capital de Minas Gerais ocasionou não só a retirada dos moradores das terras fluviais, mas também acarretou em uma profunda alteração paisagística e ecossistêmica, onde a imprensa e o poder público tiveram grande importância nas estratégias de convencimento social para a realização das intervenções. Sob a perspectiva da violência lenta, observa-se que a má gestão ambiental e a ruptura forçada entre a população e o curso d’água a partir de valores impostos à sociedade ao longo do século XX contribuíram para o apagamento de parte das memórias das populações que habitavam o vale, antes dos processos que acarretaram em sua expulsão, sendo que na atualidade as terras do vale se encontram entre as mais valorizadas da cidade de Belo Horizonte.
Impact of Column Shear Force on the Seismic Performance of Open Ground Storey Structures
Authors: Vishwanatha H. S. , K. S. Sreekeshava , Gopal M. , Sunitha S. O.
Published: February 2025

Open Ground Storey (OGS) structures are particularly vulnerable to seismic failures due to their inherent soft storey behaviour, which reduces lateral stiffness and significantly increases shear forces in the ground floor columns. This study aims to analyze the shear forces in columns of three-dimensional (3D) OGS Reinforced Concrete (RC) frames subjected to seismic loads, focusing on the effectiveness of two Lateral Load-Resisting Systems (LLRS): the use of stiff columns at the ground floor and the implementation of shear walls in various configurations. The seismic performance of these systems is compared with conventional OGS configurations and bare frames, considering the impact of infilled frames. The results of the study reveal that infilled frames significantly reduce the shear force in columns, with a reduction of up to 70% compared to bare frames. However, the shear force in ground floor columns of OGS frames is increased by about 78% compared to fully infilled frames due to the reduction in stiffness. The inclusion of shear walls in OGS frames effectively reduces this increased shear force. The ratio of ground-floor to first-floor shear forces for the OGS model ranges from 6.25 to 8.60, which can be reduced to 0.52 to 5.74 with the provision of various types of shear walls. Furthermore, the study finds that shear forces in peripheral and corner columns of OGS frames are about 10% higher compared to inner peripheral and core columns. It also highlights that increasing the ground floor height by 1 meter induces approximately 25% higher shear forces in ground floor columns. These findings underscore the importance of optimizing shear wall placement and other structural configurations to enhance the seismic resilience of OGS buildings.
Dimensión conversacional de las cartas de Jorge Guillén a su hija, Teresa
Authors: María del Pilar Saiz-Cerreda
Published: February 2025

La consideración de la carta como una conversación abre horizontes insospechados cuando se considera desde la perspectiva de la poética del género. En el caso de las cartas del poeta español Jorge Guillén a su hija Teresa, la dimensión dialogística de la carta es un rasgo configurador del pacto epistolar concreto suscrito entre los corresponsales. Además, gracias a la variedad de aspectos en que se manifiesta esta dimensión, se convierte en el cauce por el que se va perfilando una identidad narrativa. En este epistolario de estructura monofónica, Jorge Guillén entabla un diálogo con su hija, exorcizando la ausencia de ésta, hasta tal punto que la presencia de Teresa lo invade todo. La voz de la hija, que llega como en eco y como un reflejo luminoso, irradia y estructura la escritura epistolar del padre y permite rastrear las huellas del ethos personal de Teresa, que se va configurando como una filigrana a lo largo del epistolario.
La autoficción como pilar fundamental de la postura literaria de Juan Pablo Villalobos
Authors: Argüelles Rozada Esther
Published: February 2025

La novelística del escritor mexicano Juan Pablo Villalobos se ha relacionado recurrentemente con la autoficción. Como parte de esta narrativa se inscriben No voy a pedirle a nadie que me crea (2016), Peluquería y letras (2022) y El pasado anda atrás de nosotros (2024). La vinculación de estas obras con la autoficción no solo se debe al resultado de un análisis estrictamente literario, sino a una asociación insistente desde distintos paratextos, las declaraciones públicas del propio escritor y diversas referencias compartidas por terceros —editores, críticos, periodistas y entrevistadores—. Deben considerarse en esta misma dirección los recursos autoficticios presentes en la homónima adaptación cinematográfica de la primera de estas novelas, dirigida por Fernando Frías de la Parra (2023), así como en ciertas estrategias para su promoción. En definitiva, el objeto de este trabajo es la exploración de la importancia de la autoficción para la construcción de una postura literaria (Meizoz, 2014) estable y definitoria.

Authors:   Food Standards Agency,   Food Standards Scotland
Published: February 2025

An application was submitted to the Food Standards Agency (FSA) and Food Standards Scotland (FSS) in November 2021 from Roal Oy (‘the applicant’) for the new authorisation of an additive containing an endo‐1,4‐beta‐xylanase produced by Trichoderma reesei CBS 114044 (ECONASE® XT), under the category of ‘zootechnical additives’ and functional group ‘digestibility enhancers’. The additive is proposed to be used at an inclusion rate of 12,000 – 24,000 BXU/kg complete feed for laying hens, 8,000 – 24,000 BXU/kg feed for minor poultry species other than laying birds, 24,000 BXU/kg feed for laying birds of minor poultry species and 20,000 – 24,000 BXU/kg feed for pigs for fattening.

To support the FSA and Food Standards Scotland (FSS) in evaluating the dossier, the Advisory Committee on Animal Feedingstuffs (ACAF) were asked to review the dossier and the supplementary information from the applicant.

The FSA/FSS concluded, based on the ACAF’s advice, that all five forms of the additive and the production strain were correctly characterised. The liquid and solid forms of the additive are stable for 24 months at 25 °C and 20-23 °C, respectively. The solid forms are stable for pelleting to 95 °C for 32-33 seconds and in a premixture for 6 months. All forms of the additive are stable in pelleted and mash feed for 3 months and capable of homogenous distribution in feed.

ECONASE® XT can be considered safe for the target species, consumers and the environment. All forms of the additive are considered non-irritating to skin and eyes and are not skin sensitisers but are potential respiratory sensitisers.

The additive is efficacious in laying hens, minor poultry species other than laying birds, laying birds of minor poultry species and pigs for fattening.

The views of ACAF have been taken into account in the safety assessment which represents the opinion of the FSA and FSS.

REDUCTION OF POLARIZATION FIELD INFLUENCE ON THE COMPENSATED ION BEAM DYNAMICS IN THE INDUCTION ION ACCELERATOR BY USING A COLLECTOR OF ELECTRONS ISOLATED BY THE CUSP MAGNETIC FIELD
Authors: Fedorivska O.V. , Maslov V.I. , Onishchenko I.N.
Published: February 2025

The possibility to decrease the polarization field arising between accelerated ions and compensating electrons in a plasma flow injected into a magnetic cusp with an accelerating gap is shown by a 2.5D numerical simulation. Such effect is caused by implementation a collector of electrons deflected by the cusp’s magnetic field. An increase in the threshold plasma flow density by using a collector that removes electrons from the process providing polarization field decrease is demonstrated. Thus, a collector is ensuring injection of the resulting high-current ion beam into the accelerating gap without deflection.

PARAMETERS OF ELECTRON BUNCHES AT OFF-AXIS INJECTION INTO A THREE-ZONE RECTANGULAR DIELECTRIC-PLASMA ACCELERATING STRUCTURE
Authors: Markov P.I. , Kniaziev R.R. , Sotnikov G.V.
Published: February 2025

The results of numerical three-dimensional PIC simulations of self-consistent dynamics of off-axis charged particles under the influence of the excited wake field in a three-zone rectangular dielectric-plasma accelerating structure are presented, which showed the possibility of simultaneous acceleration of the test electron bunch and its focusing,
that made it possible to transport off-axis bunches. In a vacuum structure, bunch focusing is completely absent, but stable bunch transport over a finite length is also possible, although in a somewhat smaller range of transverse displacements. The limiting values of the permissible displacement of the test bunch are estimated, which allow bunches to be carried through a resonator of finite length without charge losses on dielectric or metal surfaces.

Based on the hybrid model, a magnetron discharge in a cylindrical chamber filled with argon was modeled. The obtained results were used to study the influence of gas pressure on the sputtering of the copper cathode, the diffusion of copper atoms in the discharge chamber, and the process of cluster formation. It is shown that the number of copper atoms in the discharge chamber, which is determined by their flow from the cathode, diffusion, and the processes of cluster formation and growth, depends non-monotonically on the gas pressure and reaches a maximum value at p ~ 1.75 Torr. The simulation results also show that the total number of dimers and clusters in the chamber increases with increasing gas pressure at p < 1.75 Torr. However, with a further increase in pressure, the
number of dimers remains nearly unchanged, while the number of clusters consisting of three or more copper atoms decreases.

Objectives: This study examines the impact of gamification in Human Resource Management (HRM) on employee resilience and work engagement within the Saudi Arabian workforce. It aims to explore how gamified HR practices—such as goal-setting, rewards, and feedback mechanisms—enhance resilience and foster long-term engagement. The research is grounded in the Self-Determination Theory (SDT) and the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) Model to analyze the motivational and psychological effects of gamification in the workplace.
 
Methods: A quantitative research approach was employed to investigate the relationship between gamification, resilience, and engagement. Data was collected from 320 employees across various industries in Saudi Arabia. The study utilized survey-based questionnaires to assess employees' perceptions and experiences with gamified HR practices. Statistical analysis was conducted to determine the extent of gamification’s influence on resilience and work engagement.
 
Results: The findings indicate that gamification positively influences both employee resilience and engagement. Additionally, resilience was found to partially mediate the relationship between gamification and engagement, suggesting that gamified HR practices enhance employees’ ability to adapt and stay motivated in the workplace. These results support the effectiveness of gamification as a strategic HRM tool for improving motivation, adaptability, and long-term workplace commitment.
 
Conclusion: This study contributes to HRM research by extending the application of SDT and JD-R frameworks in the context of gamification. It offers practical insights for HR professionals on integrating gamified strategies to sustain workforce engagement. The research suggests that organizations can enhance employee motivation and resilience through well-designed gamification practices. Future studies should explore industry-specific applications and conduct longitudinal research to assess the long-term impact of gamification on employee performance and retention.

Background: Sports and E-sports exist in entirely distinct realms, yet they have a commonality, they both revolve around competition. However, there are crucial distinctions that differentiate them such as strategic management. As the popularity of E-sport continues to rise, it will be observing how these differences develop and influence the trajectory of E-sporting in the future.
 
Objective: To explore perspectives and attitudes of the E-sport strategic management in Thailand.
 
Methods: The mixed method was used in this research; the qualitative phase was using the in-depth interview with 10 key informants who were selected by purposive sampling. The key informant discussed under the McKinsey 7S framework to explore the most important key element. The quantitative phase used the online questionnaire with 400 E-sport players, and the answer correlation was used to measure that examines the direction and strength of the relationship between two variables, the answer analyzed the correlations between the factors under the McKinsey 7S framework.
 
Result: The result found that the strategy was the significant factor that had an influence on the perspective and attitude of E-sport athletics. Moreover, the key informants discuss that foresight, thinking, planning, and leadership must be used as the strategic management in E-sport associations and organizations. The result of the quantitative phase found that people with higher age and more experience tend to have less satisfaction toward strategic management or higher expectations.
 
Conclusion: Having an effective management strategy from both the public and private sectors involved in E-sport is crucial. This will ensure that experienced veteran athletes are satisfied with the organizational management of related entities, contributing to the retention of such valuable individuals as personnel who generate revenue and maintain a positive reputation through future E-sport competitions.
