Authors: Çıkmaz Esra
Published: July 2024

Turizm sektöründe kadın girişimciliği, dünya genelinde giderek yaygınlaşan bir konu hâline gelmiştir. Kadın girişimciler, turizm sektöründe çeşitli alanlarda faaliyet göstererek, sektöre katkıda bulunmakta ve iş dünyasındaki cinsiyet eşitliğine katkı sağlamaktadır. Kadın girişimciliği, turizm sektöründe sadece ekonomik büyümeye değil, aynı zamanda sektörde çeşitliliği ve yeniliği desteklemeye de katkı sağlamaktadır. Kadın girişimcilerin turizmde aktif olarak yer alması, sektörde daha fazla farklı bakış açısı, yenilikçilik ve sürdürülebilirlik anlayışını beraberinde getirmektedir. Bu nedenle, turizm sektörü, kadın girişimcilere destek sağlamak ve onların liderlik rollerini teşvik etmek amacıyla çeşitli programlar ve politikalar geliştirmektedir. Araştırmadaki temel amaç; turizmde kadın girişimciliği konusunda yapılan çalışmaların irdelenmesidir. Turizm sektöründe kadın girişimciliği konusunun önemini vurgulamak için bu araştırma yapılmıştır. Araştırmada 2012-2022 yılları arasında turizmde kadın girişimciliği konusunda gerçekleştirilmiş olan 11 çalışma baz alınmış ve bibliyometrik analiz yöntemiyle incelenmiştir. Araştırma kapsamında bilimsel makalelerin yönteme göre dağılımı, araştırmacılarının bağlı oldukları kurumlar, alıntılanma sayılarına göre dağılımı ve incelenen makalelerdeki en çok tekrar eden kelime frekansları ve kelime bulutları oluşturularak değerlendirilmiştir. Yapılan araştırma sonucunda, bilimsel makalelerde en fazla nitel araştırma yönteminin kullanıldığı görülmüş ve 2013 yılında gerçekleştirilen çalışmanın atıf aldığı belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca çalışmalarda en fazla kullanılan kelimelerin “kadın girişimci” ve “turizm” kelimeleri dışında “kırsal” kelimesi olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
Dîvânu Lugâti’t Türk’te Harp Tasavvuru
Authors: Köse Fatih , Koçak Recep
Published: July 2024

Kaşgarlı Mahmud’un Dîvânu Lugâti’t Türk adlı eseri, Türkçenin ilk sözlüğü olmasının yanında, Türk kültür tarihi içerisinde birçok kavramı barındırması hususunda da önem arz etmektedir. Bu öneme binaen, keşfedildiği 20. yüzyılın ilk çeyreğinden günümüze kadar birçok çalışmaya konu olmuştur. Türk dilinin söz varlığı içerisinde; Türk boylarının ağız özelliklerinden Türk boy ve alt boylarına; 11. yy. Türk dünyası şehir, kasaba, köy, akarsu, göl ve dağ adlarından kişi adlarına; halk edebiyatı ürünlerinden gelenek ve göreneklere; halk hekimliğinden Türk savaş terminolojisine kadar birçok kavramı ihtiva eden eser, çok geniş perspektiften değerlendirilebilecek bir başucu kitabı mahiyetindedir. Kelimelerin anlamlarıyla birlikte kayıt altına alındığı salt kelime deposu değil, aksine terminolojik bütünlüğün sinematografik bir anlatım üslubuyla verilmesi hususunda yüzyılları Türk kültür ekolojisi çatısı altında bağdaştıran bir bileşke kabı görünümündedir. Bu bağlamda; 11. yy. Türk harp geleneği içerisinde büyük bir askerî terminolojinin mevcudiyetini, tam teşekküllü ordu yapılanmasından askerî strateji ve uygulamalara kadar birçok kelime, kavram ve örneği sinematografik bir üslupla ortaya koyduğumuz çalışmada; Dîvânu Lugâti’t Türk’te yer alan savaş sahnelerinden hareketle Türk harp tasavvuru incelenmiş; harp öncesi, harp sırası ve harp sonrası olmak üzere kronoloji yöntemi izlenerek 11. yy. Türk savaş sanatı ortaya konulmuştur. Sonuç olarak çalışmada, 11. yy. askerî teşkilat mekanizmasına ait tasavvurlardan hareketle dünya tarihinde kültür ve medeniyetin inşası bağlamında harp sanatı ve felsefesinin başında gelen Türk milletinin siyasi ve askerî başarısının tesadüfi olmadığı görülmüştür.
Babürlü Devleti’nde Vekil ve Vezirlik Makamı Bağlamında Öne Çıkan İsimler (1556-1707)
Authors: Karataş Yozgat Sevilay
Published: July 2024

Türk devletlerinde hükümdar, devleti yöneten asıl idareci kabul edilmiştir. Her ne kadar iktidar erki hükümdar olsa da devletlerin sosyal, siyasal, ekonomik ve kültürel anlamda çeşitli uğraş alanları olmuştur. Dolayısıyla hükümdarların, devletin farklı sahalarından bilgileri aktaran ve kendisine danışmanlık yapan bir yardımcıya ihtiyacı olmuştur. İşte bu noktada vekillik ve vezirlik müessesesi devreye girmiştir. Kuzey Hindistan’da kurulan Babürlü Devleti’nde de vekil ve vezirlik geleneği sürdürülmüştür. Özellikle Ekber Şah döneminden itibaren Babürlü hükümdarlarına stratejik anlamda destek olan, yol gösteren ve fikirleriyle ufuk açan vekil ve vezirler tarihe geçmiştir. Bu araştırmada Babürlü Devleti’nin kuruluşundan (1526) Evrengzib döneminin sonuna kadar (1707) siyasi alanda ün salmış isimlere yer verilmiştir. Vezirlik ve vekillik makamlarında bulunan isimler, yönetim çarklarının sağlıklı ve sorunsuz çalışabilmesi adına sorumluluk üstlenerek hükümdara bilgi vermiş ve danışmanlık yapmışlardır. Üstlendikleri görev ve yetkiler doğrultusunda devlet kademelerinin düzenli işleyişini tanzim etmişlerdir. Buradan yola çıkarak çalışmanın amacı; Babürlü Devleti siyasetinde varlık gösteren vekil ve vezirlik kurumunun kavram yanılgısını ortadan kaldırmak ve bu makamlar arasındaki hiyerarşiyi göstermek olmuştur. Babürlü Devleti’nde 18. yüzyılın başlarına kadar ön plana çıkan siyasi isimlere genel bir perspektiften bakmak ise bu çalışmayı önemli kılmıştır. Dolayısıyla sadece tek bir bürokratın siyasi kariyerinden ziyade -karşılaştırmalı bir araştırma olması dolayısıyla- Evrengzib’in ölümüne kadarki süreçte etkin olan vekil/vezirler incelenmiştir. Çalışmada hem tarama yöntemi hem de karşılaştırmalı araştırma yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Bu yöntemler ile vezirlik ve vekillik makamlarının kavramsal rollerinin birbirinden ayrılması sağlanmış ve Babürlü Devleti’nin 1526-1707 tarihleri arasında öne çıkan vekil ve vezirleri araştırılmıştır. Elde edilen bu bulgular sayesinde literatürdeki önemli bir tartışmanın altının doldurulması amaçlanmıştır.
Bir Dikotomi Sarmalında Geleneksel Müziğin Yüz Yıllık Temsilcisi: Cumhuriyet Dönemi Müzik Politikalarında Âşık Veysel
Authors: Fidan Süleyman
Published: July 2024

19. yüzyılda müzik ve kurumlardaki yenileşme hareketleriyle Türk müziğinde Alaturka-Alafranga ayrımları belirginleşmiştir. Bu, müzik alanında ikilemlere, tartışmalara ve çekişmelere sebebiyet vermiştir. Klasik müzik, Türk musikisi, Enderun musikisi, sanat müziği gibi adlandırılan, şehir merkezli oluşan ve meşk usulüyle kuşaklararasında aktarılan müzik tarzının müzelik ve arkeolojik bir malzeme olarak görülmesine neden olmuştur. Cumhuriyetin kurulmasıyla modernleşme hareketi müzik politikalarında da kendini hissettirmiş ve Batı müziği temelli yeni-çağdaş Türk müziği oluşturma çabaları başlamış, yerel müzik unsurların Batı müziği usullerine göre armonize edilmesi anlayışı doğmuştur. Halk müziği hedeflenmese de bu yaklaşım ve politikalar, kentli müzik aydınlarının halka yönelmelerini sağlamış; halk müziği kentli aydınlar tarafından “keşfedilmeye” başlanmıştır. Âşık Veysel, bu dönemin ilklerindendir. Âşık Veysel; yaşamı, hassas bir işleyiş tarzı, cumhuriyeti ve devrimleri idrak edişi, Türkçeyi kullanma tarzıyla öne çıkmış, döneminde ve sonrasında bir ikon olmuştur. Devletin devrimlerini anlatma görevi halkevleri, dernekler, konserler, turneler ve köy enstitüleri vasıtasıyla ozana verilmiştir. Çok partili dönemde devletin müziğe yaklaşımı politikasızlık olsa da bu dönemde kültür endüstrilerinin yaygınlaşması, âşığın müzikteki rolünü dönemin araçlarıyla devam ettirdiği görülür. Bu çalışma Âşık Veysel’in kültür politikalarıyla örtüşen ve örtüşmeyen yanlarını, geleneksel Türk müziğinin yirmi birinci yüzyıla aktarılmasındaki görevini, günümüz müzik anlayışında ve resmî yaklaşımlardaki konumunu tespit etmeyi hedeflemektedir. Bu doğrultuda müzikte modernleşme yaklaşımlarının âşıklık geleneğine ve halk müziğine etkileri, politikaların sonuçları, günümüz müziğine yansımalarının tartışılması ve değerlendirilmesi çalışmanın temel noktası olacaktır. Çalışmada öncelikle müzik politikalarıyla ilgili literatür taranmış ve okunmuştur. Ardından içerik çözümleme tekniğiyle geleneksel müziğin evrilme süreci tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Sonuç olarak dönemin politikalarının planlanan hedefleri ve yöntemleriyle olmasa da geleneksel müzik-çağdaş müzik dikotomisinin Âşık Veysel özelinde sağlandığı görülmektedir.
Gaziantep Yerel Medyasında Çalışan Gazetecilerin Prekaryalaşma Deneyimleri
Authors: Şen Revşan
Published: July 2024

Çalışma koşullarında yaşanan güvencesizliğin derinleşmesi prekarya kavramına dönük çalışmaların artmasına neden olmuştur. Neoliberal politikaların etkisiyle risk faktörü dışında birçok olgunun geçicilik ve belirsizlik içermesi, çalışanların başta çalışma koşulları olmak üzere tüm yaşam alanlarını derin biçimde etkilemektedir. Meslek, yaş, cinsiyet ve coğrafya ayırt etmeksizin birçok alanda çalışanları etkileyen bu görece yeni koşullar, dünyada olduğu gibi Türkiye’de de medya çalışanlarını da güvencesizliğe tabi kılmaktadır. Bu araştırma, önemli bir toplumsal kurum olarak yerel demokrasileri güçlendirme potansiyeline sahip olan yerel medyada çalışan gazetecilerin çalışma koşullarını prekarya tartışmaları bağlamında analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Nitel araştırma yöntemine başvurulan çalışmada, toplamda on yerel gazeteci ile yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yapılan görüşmelerin sonucunda, gazetecilerin her an işten çıkarılma endişesi yaşadıkları, kadın gazetecilerin evlenmek ve çocuk doğurmak gibi kararları bu belirsizlik süreci içerisinde ertelemek zorunda kaldıkları görülmüştür. Herkesin birbirini tanıdığı bir yerel medya ortamında dayanışma ağları geliştiremeyecek ölçüde az sayıda oldukları belirtilen yerel gazetecilerin birbirleri ile girdikleri rekabet de güvencesizliğin daha yoğun biçimde deneyimlenmesine yol açmaktadır. Bununla birlikte istihdam güvencesinden yoksun olan gazetecilerin bu rekabet ve belirsizlik ortamında işlerinden atılmamak için işverenlerin talep ettiği her işi üstlenmek zorunda hissettikleri tespit edilmiştir. Yoğun biçimde hissettikleri bu güvencesizlik biçimlerine bakıldığında yerel gazetecilerin az sayıda yerel medya kuruluşu arasında yapmak zorunda hissettikleri seçim nedeniyle de güvencesiz çalışma koşullarının yeniden üretildiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
Prolonged COVID-19's Double Impact: Stress and Male Fertility
Authors: Alkireidmi Mohammed Ahmed , Kaleem Mohammed , Naqvi Salma , Alabassi Fahad A. , Kamal Mohammad Amjad , Anwar Firoz
Published: July 2024

Till now, 642 million COVID-19 cases have been confirmed, claiming around 6.62 million
lives. The impact of SARS-CoV-2 on the male reproductive system, both short and long-term,
remains a mystery. This study aims to scrutinize how SARS-CoV-2 affects sexual function, considering
potential mediators such as psychological stress. Results reveal that the infection intensifies
metabolic stress, directly or indirectly impacting male fertility and causing psychological distress
with heightened ROS generation. The exclusive presence of Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2
(ACE2) in type II pneumocytes, serving as the virus receptor, suggests lungs as the primary target. In
conclusion, SARS-CoV-2 infection potentially diminishes male fertility, primarily due to psychological
stress, raising concerns about COVID-19-induced male infertility amid other factors. Despite
limited therapeutic options for COVID-19 and ongoing vaccine efforts, the persistent threat of diverse
strains poses a long-term risk to global population health.

Caminhar e Ser um Artista Contemporâneo no Brasil. Ser Nazareth. Entrevista com Paulo Nazareth
Authors: Sales Michelle
Published: July 2024

A entrevista com Paulo Nazareth foi realizada no âmbito do projeto de pesquisa As Práticas Artísticas Contemporâneas e o Pensamento Pós-Colonial e Decolonial (Sales & Cabrera, 2020). Como é evidente ao longo da entrevista, estivemos interessados em pensar em questões étnico-raciais e de identidade na obra do artista mineiro, bem como na sua inserção no campo da arte contemporânea brasileira, escavando na sua origem de formação e nos seus interesses. Entendemos que o contexto atual da arte contemporânea no Brasil tem abordado dimensões pertinentes em relação à identidade brasileira que sempre estiveram presentes na cultura visual brasileira, mas que no século XXI assumem novos contornos, questionando o nosso legado colonial e a tradição conservadora nas artes plásticas, do modernismo até aos dias de hoje, no que concerne a pauta racial.
Simulation of low-high method in adaptive testing
Authors: Rukli Rukli , Atan Noor Azeam
Published: July 2024

The era of disruption significantly engineered a classic testing system into an adaptive testing system where each test taker takes a unique test. However, the carrying capacity of the adaptive testing system engineering is experiencing obstacles in terms of the method of presenting the test questions. The study aims to introduce the low-high adaptive tracking method with the item response theory approach, where the difficulty level of the questions is adapted to the test takers' abilities. The number of test questions in the question bank is 400 questions. Data analysis used the Bilog-MG program. The range of the difficulty level of the questions and the ability level of the test takers was determined [-3.3]. The initialization of the ability of each test taker is set flexibly. The test taker's response uses the pattern of all wrong, all true, and normal responses. The research results show that the low-high method with the IRT approach matches the pattern of the method of giving adaptive test questions. The low-high method requires about 17 test questions to find the ability of the test takers. Another characteristic of the low-high method is that if the responses of the test takers' three to five questions are all correct, then the calculation of divergent abilities is positive, and if the responses of the test takers' three to five questions are all wrong, then the calculation of convergent abilities is negative. Teachers can use the low-high method to design and assemble adaptive tests in schools electronically and manually.

The COVID-19 pandemic brought different intolerable and uncomfortable situations that ruined the students' academic performance, career opportunities, and social lives through depression, anxiety, fear, uncertainty, and mental illness. In this study, we examined the psychological threats of the COVID-19 among Egypt’s public-sector university students. We employed quantitative methods in this study and used a questionnaire to collect cross-sectional data. The Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) results show that Fear of COVID-19 (FoC) has a positive effect of on Depression from COVID-19 (DfC), Future Career Anxiety (FCA) and Uncertainty of COVID-19 (UoC). In addition, DfC and UoC have positive effects on FCA. Finally, DfC and UoC positively mediate the association between FoC and FCA. This study's findings help policymakers and university authorities shape policies to reduce Egypt’s public sector university students ‘psychological problems due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, this study’s findings assist with the adjustments caused by the complex and rapidly changing pandemic situation.
The Acceptability, Engagement, and Feasibility of Mental Health Apps for Marginalized and Underserved Young People: Systematic Review and Qualitative Study
Authors: Bear Holly Alice , Ayala Nunes Lara , Ramos Giovanni , Manchanda Tanya , Fernandes Blossom , Chabursky Sophia , Walper Sabine , Watkins Edward , Fazel Mina
Published: July 2024

Background

Smartphone apps may provide an opportunity to deliver mental health resources and interventions in a scalable and cost-effective manner. However, young people from marginalized and underserved groups face numerous and unique challenges to accessing, engaging with, and benefiting from these apps.

Objective

This study aims to better understand the acceptability (ie, perceived usefulness and satisfaction with an app) and feasibility (ie, the extent to which an app was successfully used) of mental health apps for underserved young people. A secondary aim was to establish whether adaptations can be made to increase the accessibility and inclusivity of apps for these groups.

Methods

We conducted 2 sequential studies, consisting of a systematic literature review of mental health apps for underserved populations followed by a qualitative study with underserved young male participants (n=20; age: mean 19). Following the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines, an electronic search of 5 databases was conducted in 2021. The search yielded 18,687 results, of which 14 articles met the eligibility criteria.

Results

The included studies comprised a range of groups, including those affected by homelessness, having physical health conditions, living in low- and middle-income countries, and those with sexual and gender minority identities. Establishing and maintaining user engagement was a pervasive challenge across mental health apps and populations, and dropout was a reported problem among nearly all the included studies. Positive subjective reports of usability, satisfaction, and acceptability were insufficient to determine users’ objective engagement.

Conclusions

Despite the significant amount of funding directed to the development of mental health apps, juxtaposed with only limited empirical evidence to support their effectiveness, few apps have been deliberately developed or adapted to meet the heterogeneous needs of marginalized and underserved young people. Before mental health apps are scaled up, a greater understanding is needed of the types of services that more at-risk young people and those in limited-resource settings prefer (eg, standard vs digital) followed by more rigorous and consistent demonstrations of acceptability, effectiveness, and cost-effectiveness. Adopting an iterative participatory approach by involving young people in the development and evaluation process is an essential step in enhancing the adoption of any intervention, including apps, in “real-world” settings and will support future implementation and sustainability efforts to ensure that marginalized and underserved groups are reached.

Studying the Optimal Air Volume Needed for Inflating the Cuff of an Endotrecheal Tube: A Clinical Observational Study
Authors: Gani Urfeena
Published: July 2024

Abstract: An endotracheal tube (ETT) is a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) flexible plastic tube, this tube is placed into the trachea through the mouth or nose. During the course of general anaesthesia or when a patient is unable to breath by him / herself the endotracheal tube is placed for the maintenance of breathing when it is necessary to sedate the patient, and airway protection is thus lost. Endotracheal tube is used for the protection of airway from any foreign body so that air can pass into and out of the lungs by which it can maintain the airway. This tube needs a special consideration with regards to cuff inflation for creating a seal in between trachea and endotracheal tube for preventing chances of aspiration and leakage of air. Therefore, we are conducting this study to find the optimal air volume needed to inflate the cuff of ETT and minimise the complications associated with over and underinflation of cuff. The conclusion of our study shows that There was a tendency to overinflate the ETT cuff, resulting in high intracuff pressure. The estimated optimal air volume needed for inflating the ETT cuff was about 6.05 ml for men and 5.45 ml for women.

Published: July 2024

Abstract: The 19th century witnessed a profound transformation in the political landscape of many regions, characterized by the rise of nationalism and the subsequent formation of nation-states. This research work delves into the historical context, key drivers, and consequences of this significant historical phenomenon. The research offers light on a crucial time in global history by investigating the causes of nationalism and its effects on the formation of nation-states. Employing a multidisciplinary approach, the research draws from historical, political, and sociocultural perspectives to analyze the rise of nationalism. It delves at how many peoples inside established empires and territories felt a feeling of commonality due to their shared cultural, linguistic, and historical identities. The work delves into the influence of Enlightenment ideas, Romanticism, and intellectual movements that fueled the concept of self-determination and the sovereignty of distinct nations. The study also scrutinizes the role of key historical events and figures that catalyzed the nationalist fervor. From the unification of Italy led by Giuseppe Garibaldi to the German unification orchestrated by Otto von Bismarck, the work examines the strategies employed to consolidate fragmented territories into cohesive nation-states. It also considers the implications of these transformations on regional stability, diplomacy, and balance of power. Furthermore, the research investigates the potential tensions arising from the juxtaposition of national identities and existing imperial structures. It delves into instances where nationalism clashed with multiethnic empires, often leading to complex negotiations of autonomy, self-governance, or secession.
Real Gas Effect on Motion of Self-gravitating Cylindrical Detonation Waves
Authors: Gangwar Pushpender Kumar
Published: July 2024

Abstract: The effect of real gas on the adiabatic propagation of strong cylindrical imploding detonation waves in the nonhomogeneous medium having power varying density distribution. Ignoring the effect of overtaking disturbances the CCW solution has been obtained for the problem at the detonation waves are initially in Chapman-Jouguet state. The analytical expressions for the detonation velocity just behind the front along with other flow variables are derived. The expressions for the freely propagating velocity of detonation front are derived. Using the jump condition across the strong detonation front, the numerical values of the pressure and density across the front have been computed with the help of the software MATLAB. It is observed that the variation of flow parameters with convergence of detonation front is depend upon the change in Alfven Mach number, the parameters of realness of the gas and initial density distribution. Finally, it is found that change in parameter of realness of the medium plays an important role on the post flow variables. The effect of change in Alfven Mach number and density parameter is also discussed through graphs. The outcome of the present study is compared with the results for the case of ideal reacting gas.

Published: July 2024

Abstract: Before the twentieth century, drugs used for the treatment of diseases were obtained from natural sources like plants, animals, microorganisms, and minerals, and among them, plants were the major source of natural drugs. At present, most of the drugs are obtained from synthetic and biosynthetic sources. The nature was once served as the source of all medicaments and plants, especially the higher plants have been continuing the service since antiquity as important sources of novel compounds useful directly as medicinal agents, as model compounds for synthetic or semi-synthetic structure modifications and optimization, as biochemical and/or pharmacological probes, and as sources of inspiration for generations of synthetic organic medicinal chemists. Plant-derived compounds which have recently under- gone development include the anti-cancer agents, taxol and camptothecin, the Chinese antimalarial drug, artemisinin, and the East Indian Ayurvedic drug, for-skolin. These and many other examples serve to illustrate the continuing value of plant-derived secondary metabolites as viable compounds for modern drug devel- opment (Newman et al. 2003; Newman and Cragg 2007). Natural sources are most primitive and abundant. Drugs obtained from the natural sources include a. Plant, b. Animal, c. Microbial, d. Marine, e. Mineral, and f. Geographical sources. Plant, Animal, Microbial and Marine may be put under common heads—the biological sources.

This work explores the influence of affectivity as a way of recognizing teachers’ efforts in an increasingly competitive and stressful academic context. The "Solidarity Letters" Project developed by the State University of Minas Gerais (UEMG) aimed to use means of expressing recognition at work as an element capable of promoting mental health to teachers of law and physical education courses who work at this university. The theoretical precepts come from the clinical-theoretical discipline psychodynamics of work, which dates back to the 1980s and originates in France. To this end, letters written by students from both courses were collected, after immersion in theoretical training in the areas of work psychodynamics and project management. The results of the intervention reinforce that recognition is an important component of promoting quality of life at work. It concludes on the importance of incorporating rituals of recognition and stimulation of affectivity in academic practices, especially for student training in work psychology. This approach not only humanizes the university environment, but has the potential to significantly enrich the teaching and learning process.

To estimate the prevalence of anxiety and depression diagnosis during the COVID-19 pandemic among teachers and to identify the associated factors. Epidemiological websurvey, carried out in 2020, with teachers of public basic education in Minas Gerais/Brazil, using a digital form. The dependent variables analyzed were self-reported formal diagnoses of anxiety and depression during the pandemic. For data analysis, Binary Logistic Regression was used. The study involved 15,641 teachers. 25% reported a diagnosis of anxiety during the pandemic and 8.6% a medical diagnosis of depression. There was a significantly higher chance of an anxiety diagnosis among women, teachers dissatisfied with their work, who were part of the COVID-19 risk group, with a family member/friend who died from COVID-19, who presented severe fear of COVID-19, with sleep problems, who were smokers and among those who were overweight/obese. There was a significantly higher chance of depression among women, who worked 40 or more hours a week, who had a lot of difficulty with remote work, who were dissatisfied with work, who were part of the COVID-19 risk group, with a family member/friend who died due to COVID-19, with severe fear of COVID-19, with sleep problems, among smokers, those who have increased alcohol consumption, with a less healthy dietary pattern and among those with obesity. A relevant prevalence of anxiety and depression was observed among teachers during the pandemic. Changes caused by the pandemic in the work, routine and health of teachers contributed to increased rates of mental health problems.
The Depiction of Native Hawaiians in American Media
Authors: Lopez Lauren
Published: July 2024

This paper examines the ways in which colonial ideologies influenced the presentation of Native Hawaiians in American media throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Since the acquisition of the Hawaiian Islands as a U.S. territory in 1898, American cartoonists, advertisers, authors, filmmakers, and others have promoted racist, sexist, and oversexualized versions of Native Hawaiians to the American public because of their deeply ingrained, sometimes unconscious, colonial ways of thinking. Although Indigenous Studies is a growing area of interest in the academy, research on Native Hawaiian media representation and the impact of stereotypes on both Native Hawaiian identity and public views of Native Hawaiians is scarce. This paper uses political cartoons, travel ephemera, film footage, and various forms of print media to bring to light the most prominent stereotypes of Native Hawaiians and explore how the origins of these stereotypes can be traced back to American colonialism. Unlike pre-existing works, this paper scrutinizes various examples of Native Hawaiian media representations from an intersectional perspective, considering racial-, gender-, and sexuality-based approaches. It also critically examines the role of exoticization, instead of focusing on only one of the aforementioned approaches. By outlining the fallacious stereotypes of the Native Hawaiian community and explaining their origins, this paper can help arm the media industry with the necessary tools to create more culturally competent media content.
Adiabatic quantum trajectories in engineered reservoirs

Published: July 2024

We analyze the efficiency of protocols for adiabatic quantum state transfer assisted by an engineered reservoir. The target dynamics is a quantum trajectory in the Hilbert space and is a fixed point of a time-dependent master equation in the limit of adiabatic dynamics. We specialize to quantum state transfer in a qubit and determine the optimal schedule for a class of time-dependent Lindblad equations. The speed limit on state transfer is extracted from a physical model of a qubit coupled to a reservoir, from which the Lindblad equation is derived in the Born-Markov limit. Our analysis shows that the resulting efficiency is comparable to the efficiency of the optimal unitary dynamics. Numerical studies indicate that reservoir-engineered protocols could outperform unitary protocols outside the regime of the Born-Markov master equation, namely, when correlations between the qubit and reservoir become relevant. Our study contributes to the theory of shortcuts to adiabaticity for open quantum systems and to the toolbox of protocols of the NISQ era.

LAS UNIONES DE HECHO COMO EX VARIIS CAUSARUM FIGURIS
Authors: Guridi Rivano Mar del Rosario
Published: July 2024

El presente artículo examina las uniones de hecho o las convivencias estables y las considera como hechos generadores de obligaciones. Hay que reconocer que las uniones de hecho son suficientes para crear por sí mismas derechos y obligaciones entre los convivientes, sin la necesidad de recurrir a un acuerdo y/o contrato. Esta postura demanda un recorrido histórico crítico que busca soluciones del pasado para enfrentar los actuales inconvenientes que vive Chile en la materia. Justamente son los desamparos de convivientes lo que ha motivado el pronunciamiento del Derecho en todos los tiempos. Las confrontaciones legales entre el matrimonio, el acuerdo de unión civil y las convivencias de hecho continúan en una sociedad que ya no es capaz de distinguir las causas que las originan. Se debe considerar que siendo todas instituciones afines, que presentan características afines, y que, por tanto, debiera corresponderles un tratamiento afín, al parecer, están destinadas a la confrontación.
Es preciso recordar que en Derecho Romano todos aquellos hechos que no podían enmarcarse en las fuentes de las obligaciones tradicionales se denominaban ex variis causarum figuris. Para la dogmática chilena y para la jurisprudencia, los derechos y obligaciones sólo nacen cuando existe un hecho tipificado como generador de obligaciones, y dentro de tal catálogo no hay espacio para la convivencia o uniones de hecho y para la conciencia de quienes en su amor puro y libre se tratan como marido y mujer.Una primera comparación de los institutos radica en que el matrimonio se funda en una voluntad nupcial expresada en el contrato, lo propio sucede con el acuerdo de unión civil, la voluntad se proyecta en un contrato, en cambio, en las uniones de hecho la voluntad se halla en la convivencia. Es este consorcio de vida formado entre quienes cohabitan insuficiente para que los juristas vean en él una causa de obligaciones.

Introducción: La Hospitalización a domicilio quirúrgica (HaDQ) es una prestación hospitalaria para pacientes quirúrgicos con indicación de HaD, estabilidad clínica, cuidador y voluntariedad. Facilita acortar estancias hospitalarias quirúrgicas (early discharge), o evitar ingresos hospitalarios (admission avoidance). Es segura y eficiente. Su flexibilidad organizativa le permite adaptarse a las necesidades cambiantes de los servicios hospitalarios quirúrgicos.
Método: Estudio transversal comparativo de la actividad de la HaDQ de nuestro hospital en dos momentos de su funcionamiento: inicio (2010) y ahora (2021), para analizar los cambios que se han producido y si justifican la evolución y el futuro de la HaDQ.
Se analizan las variables: ingresos, estancia media, procedimientos, visitas, modalidad de HaD, unidad derivativa, procedencia, zona de cobertura.
Resultados: Los cambios destacados en el 2021 son: mayor demanda de HaD para pacientes quirúrgicos (+69%), representando el 22% de las altas del servicio de cirugía general; cambio del perfil de pacientes, más pacientes quirúrgicos no operados, y postoperatorios complicados; incremento de curas complejas (+10%) y controles de drenajes abdominales (+20%); cambio del número y tipo de visitas, realizando menos visitas domiciliarias programadas y no esperadas (-43%), pero incorporando visitas telefónicas de seguimiento, visitas en Hospital de Día, e incrementando CCEE preferentes médicas (+189%); incremento de la modalidad admission avoidance (30%) ; e inclusión de pacientes de fuera de zona de cobertura (33%).
Conclusiones: Los cambios en la HaDQ han permitido atender con hospitalización a domicilio a un mayor número de pacientes quirúrgicos, adaptándose a las necesidades del servicio de cirugía general.

Oszilloskopie im Experimentalfilm der frühen 1950er Jahre
Authors: Bräuer Stefanie
Published: July 2024

Die Autorin untersucht in den frühen 1950er Jahren entstandene experimentelle Filme, die erstmals elektronische Bilder künstlerisch verarbeiteten. Sie erfasst sie zum ersten Mal als Korpus und untersucht die Einbindung der elektronischen Oszillogramme in die Animationsfilme von Mary Ellen Bute (1906–1983), Hy Hirsh (1911–1961) und Norman McLaren (1914–1987) in den Jahren 1951–54 mit Blick auf die Schnittfläche von Elektronik und Kinematografie. Ihren Fokus richtet sie auf die eingesetzten Praktiken und das Relationsgeflecht bei der Produktion der Filme: Sie fragt, welche Bedienweisen das Oszilloskop aufgrund seiner üblichen Verwendungskontexte, technischen Parameter und Interfacegestaltung erlaubte und wie es für die Experimentalfilme appropriiert wurde. Zudem wird die bisherige Epocheneinteilung, der zufolge die elektronischen Künste ab den 1960er Jahren zu verorten sind, durch die Untersuchung dieses kritischen Moments in der Technik- und Filmgeschichte zu Beginn der 1950er Jahre in Frage gestellt. Diese Erweiterung der Geschichte elektronischer Bewegtbilder erfolgt mit Perspektive auf die fortwährend an Bedeutung gewinnenden digital-numerischen Medien und elektronischen Künste.
Reducing Food Waste Using Machine Learning Models: Forecasting and Optimization Approaches
Authors: IE* Ozcil
Published: July 2024

Food waste is a serious problem, with approximately one-third of all food produced globally being wasted each year. This issue not only exacerbates food insecurity but also has significant environmental impacts, such as greenhouse gas emissions, land use, water consumption, and loss of biodiversity, as well as economic losses. Economically, food waste represents a substantial loss of resources, including labour, energy, and capital invested in food production, processing, and distribution. This problem is recognized as a global crisis not only due to inefficient use of resources but also because of its impact on food security. With the rapidly growing global population, addressing food waste has become an urgent necessity to ensure sustainable food systems. Machine learning (ML) offers innovative solutions to this challenge by using large datasets and advanced algorithms to predict food demand more accurately, optimize inventory management, and enhance supply chain efficiency. ML has significant potential in reducing food waste because it can better predict future demands based on past data and adjust stock levels accordingly. This is particularly advantageous in managing perishable foods, as they have a higher likelihood of being wasted. Machine learning algorithms can analyze large datasets to more accurately predict food demand, optimize inventory management, and improve supply chain efficiency. These algorithms, categorized into three main approaches supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and reinforcement learning can be used in various ways to reduce food waste.

Published: July 2024

Preamble: Concerns over maternal mortality have been raised not only by the United Nations and other international organizations, but also by national governments in developing nations like Nigeria. This major public health problem is being faced by many nations over time. About 94% of maternal deaths occur in resource poor settings with South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa having almost 86% of maternal deaths worldwide (WHO). Maternal mortality in Nigeria remains at an unacceptable level. Methodology: A descriptive retrospective hospital-based design was employed for the study. The population for the study was all patients managed for antepartum haemorrhage over a period of 5 years from 2018-2022. Two hundred and seven patients out of 9,890 deliveries had Antepartum haemorrhage at the University of Medical Sciences Teaching Hospital, Akure Complex for the period under review. The researcher extracted the required information/data from the hospital records, case notes and theatre registers of the hospital kept from 2018-2022. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics by chi square at 0.05 level of significance. Results: The study found among others, prevalence of antepartum hemorrhage among pregnant women in the specific location to be 2.1%. Placenta previa was the most common cause, and effective management strategies were employed, including blood transfusions and electronic fetal monitoring. The majority of patients, 95.2% did not have a premature delivery; over seventy percent (71.5%) did not require a cesarean operation. Ninety five percent (95.2%) did not require a blood transfusion, all the patients managed (100%) did not experience collapse during pregnancy, and 4.8% mothers were temporarily admitted to the intensive care unit (HDU) while 6.8% babies were admitted to neonatal care unit and 4.3% of babies did not survive. Conclusion: The prevalence of antepartum hemorrhage among pregnant women in the study location to be 2.1% which is relatively low. Placenta previa was the most common cause, and effective management strategies were employed, including blood transfusions and electronic fetal monitoring. Public health strategies geared towards reducing rate of caesarean section will go a long way in reducing incidences of tendency for placenta previa and indirectly, antepartum haemorrhage.
