Authors: Ortiz Herrera Marco Antonio
Published: February 2025

El cáncer de próstata (CaP) es una de las principales causas de muerte por cáncer en hombres, representando un importante desafío diagnóstico en la práctica urológica. Aunque el examen digital rectal (EDR) y el antígeno prostático específico (PSA) han sido fundamentales para la detección, estos métodos han carecido de la especificidad y sensibilidad necesarias para identificar el cáncer clínicamente significativo.1 La biopsia prostática, desde sus inicios rudimentarios hasta las técnicas modernas que integran la resonancia magnética multiparamétrica (RMmp), ha evolucionado como el pilar central en el diagnóstico del CaP.2 Esta editorial revisa, en orden cronológico, la evolución de los métodos diagnósticos del CaP, destacando los avances en la biopsia prostática y el impacto de la RMmp, la biopsia transperineal y las técnicas de biopsia fusión.

La inclusión educativa en Paraguay
Authors: Ferreira Bueno Henrique , Leguizamón Goiri Monserrat , Mendoza Evelyn , Rodriguez Karina , Rodas Jara Ronaldo
Published: February 2025

La Ley N.º 5.136 de Educación Inclusiva, fue promulgada en el año 2013. A 11 años de su implementación, presenta desafíos para que las escuelas sean realmente espacios que respondan a las necesidades de las personas con discapacidad. El objetivo de este estudio es recoger y analizar la experiencia de maestras de apoyo a la inclusión de las niñas, niños y adolescentes, conocer las causas de su agremiación y su rol en las escuelas. El enfoque que adoptó este estudio fue cualitativo, con un corte hermenéutico, y alcance exploratorio. La muestra consiste en dos maestras de apoyo a la inclusión. Los datos se recolectaron a través de una entrevista a profundidad con un cuestionario semi-estructurada a las representantes de la organización APUAI (Asociación de profesionales y universitarios de apoyo a la inclusión). Los resultados indican que en APUAI se erigen sobre un compromiso con la transformación del sistema educativo para lograr una sociedad más inclusiva, los maestros entrevistados son actores sociales que buscan generar incidencia en el Estado para el reconocimiento de su trabajo y una regulación salarial, dado que, a falta de reglamentaciones, su tarea pasa a ser una cuestión privada, condicionando a la capacidad económica de la familia el acceso a la educación de estudiantes con discapacidad. A su vez, cumplen un papel pedagógico sin contar con habilitación pedagógica, ya que en su mayoría son profesionales de carreras terapéuticas y estudiantes de diversas carreras. Se concluye que  el objetivo gremial es lograr incidir en la intervención de los huecos de la Ley para la construcción de un entorno educativo y social más equitativo y accesible para todos, y la necesidad de una formación profesional para los maestros de apoyo a la inclusión. Futuras investigaciones son necesarias para seguir explorando esta situación de las personas que cumplen el rol de maestra de apoyo a la inclusión en Paraguay con una muestra más amplia, incluyendo más instituciones educativas como las públicas y privadas.
La violencia contra las mujeres ¿es una problemática en aumento? Datos que se reflejan en la ENSIMUP
Authors: Franco Violeta
Published: February 2025

En este trabajo se aborda la problemática de la violencia contra las mujeres en Paraguay, a partir de datos estadísticos relevados con la ENSIMUP, se indaga en estos datos que las mujeres en su mayoría atraviesan situaciones de violencia en el ámbito privado, mayoritariamente por parte de sus parejas y ex parejas. El objetivo ha sido revisar las acciones de las mujeres ante las situaciones de violencia que han vivido, a partir de datos de la Encuesta de Situación de las Mujeres de Paraguay (ENSIMUP, 2022). Se ha encontrado que son muy pocas las mujeres que deciden denunciar a sus agresores, pues según lo relevado en la ENSIMUP sólo el 6% realiza la denuncia y en su mayoría lo hace solamente en la instancia policial. La investigación se fundamenta en teorías feministas y en la Convención de Belem Do Pará, que define la violencia contra las mujeres como un acto que vulnera sus derechos fundamentales. Tomando la referencia de Rita Segato y Marcela Lagarde que explican que la violencia contra las mujeres como una expresión del dominio patriarcal para la subordinación de las mujeres, asimismo se explora la teoría de Leonore Walker, que expone la violencia en un ciclo que se repite, incluye fases de tensión, violencia y reconciliación. Además, se discute el patriarcado como un sistema cultural que perpetúa la violencia y la subordinación de las mujeres a través de la violencia. El trabajo toma una metodología cuantitativa para analizar las acciones de las mujeres ante las situaciones de violencia, destacando la necesidad de un enfoque más personalizado en las medidas de protección. A partir de estos enfoques, se plantea la preocupación por el fenómeno de la violencia contra las mujeres cuya observación denota una agudización del fenómeno, a pesar de la existencia de legislación específica para su erradicación, por ejemplo: desde el Ministerio de la Mujer, a través del Observatorio de la mujer, donde se monitorea casos de feminicidios revelando que en el 85% de los mismos, fueron cometidos por parejas o exparejas, lo que indica que la violencia se manifiesta mayoritariamente en el ámbito privado o familiar. Se han encontrado, además, datos que revelan que en el año 2023 se han cometido 45 feminicidios y hasta octubre del 2024 se registran 27 vidas de mujeres cegadas, sólo en estos dos años, se cuentan con 174 niños, niñas y adolescentes en orfandad.
Tiempo libre en familias del Bañado Tacumbú (Asunción), 1973
Authors: Céspedes R. Roberto  L.
Published: February 2025

Datos de un censo (1973) a las familias del Bañado Tacumbú (zona inundable por las crecidas anuales del río Paraguay) de Asunción registraron las actividades llevadas a cabo durante el tiempo libre (TL) de padres, madres, jóvenes y niño/as. Este análisis tuvo el propósito de diferenciar las actividades del TL por sexo y grupos de edad y transversalmente entre el mundo exterior e interior del hogar, complementando lo anterior. El enfoque aborda las desiguales pautas de dichas actividades según género y grupos etarios con la diferenciación clave y necesaria entre actividades domésticas y del mundo exterior. Es un estudio exploratorio con una metodología cuantitativa. Se trata de un estudio exploratorio por cuanto se desconocen antecedentes de ese contexto social, geográfico e histórico. Los principales resultados fueron, por una parte, actividades mayoritarias del TL de padres en el mundo exterior antes que en el doméstico mientras que, se halla lo opuesto para las madres. Un ejemplo significativo es la salida (mundo exterior y sin acompañantes) de padres a la cancha (fútbol) o pesca mientras que las madres no salen solas a ninguna parte. Por otra parte, el grupo juvenil divide sus actividades entre deportes (en el exterior, presumiblemente) y responsabilidades en la casa en comparación con niño/as que casi exclusivamente juegan (en la casa, presumiblemente). La conclusión principal fue la pertinencia del enfoque de género y grupos etarios en el espacio social doméstico y exterior para las actividades llevadas a cabo en el TL por padres, madres, jóvenes y niño/as. Esta verificación empírica constituye un eslabón de base para posteriores investigaciones.

The banking sector in Nigeria plays a pivotal role in facilitating economic growth, with interbank currency operations being a cornerstone for efficient financial transactions. However, the accuracy of interbank operations has been hampered by systemic inefficiencies, errors in currency reconciliation, and inadequate technological integration, leading to financial losses and customer dissatisfaction. This study seeks to develop a conceptual framework aimed at enhancing the accuracy of interbank currency operations within Nigeria’s banking sector. The proposed framework integrates advanced digital technologies such as blockchain, artificial intelligence (AI), and real-time data analytics to address current challenges. Blockchain technology ensures transparency, immutability, and traceability of transactions, significantly reducing errors and fraud. AI-driven predictive algorithms and machine learning models are employed to enhance currency demand forecasting and fraud detection. Furthermore, real-time data analytics facilitates proactive decision-making, improving currency allocation and reconciliation processes. The framework also emphasizes the importance of institutional capacity building, advocating for training programs to upskill banking personnel in utilizing these advanced technologies effectively. Regulatory compliance and policy alignment are identified as critical enablers, ensuring that the proposed technological interventions align with Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) regulations and global banking standards. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, including qualitative interviews with banking professionals and quantitative analysis of interbank transaction data, to validate the framework’s effectiveness. Preliminary findings suggest that the integration of blockchain and AI technologies can improve the accuracy of interbank currency operations by over 60%, reducing reconciliation errors and operational inefficiencies. The framework also demonstrates potential for scalability, enabling its adoption across diverse financial institutions within Nigeria. By addressing systemic challenges in interbank operations, this study contributes to the broader goal of enhancing financial stability, fostering customer trust, and driving economic growth in Nigeria. Future research will focus on pilot implementations of the framework and evaluating its impact on operational efficiency.

Carpel Tunnel Syndrome (Healing Hands): A Comprerhensive Review
Authors:     Pharm. D Intern, Pharmacy practice, Krishna Teja Pharmacy College, Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh, Sravani. K.
Published: February 2025

This condition has emerged as one of the most common peripheral neuropathies secondary to median nerve compression within the carpal tunnel-an anatomical passageway of the wrist. Carpal tunnel syndrome most frequently presents with pain, numbness, and paresthesias over the hand area innervated by the median nerve. Most studies reporting on epidemiological analyses document an incidence rate between 1–5% of the population, and among females, it tends to predominate especially in obese populations. It occurs most commonly in the 40–60 age range and with a ratio of females to males of 3:1. Common etiologies are flexor tenosynovitis, diabetes, pregnancy, hypothyroidism, and arthritis, among many intrinsic, extrinsic, and neuropathic causes. The clinical tests, along with Tinel's test and Phalen's, are aided by nerve conduction studies and the Levine Questionnaire in assessing symptoms and can thus lead to a diagnosis for CTS. Treatment plans are both non-operative management and operative treatments, which have evolved into various endoscopic as well as minimally invasive surgical operations. Only advances in diagnosis and treatment could help to ameliorate these concerns, whereas deeper roots plague long-term management.

Authors: Umboh Olivia Mariska , Yanti Harti Budi
Published: February 2025

The main objective of this research is to explore how financial performance and corporate social responsibility influence the value of companies in the consumer goods industry in Indonesia, using firm size as a factor to consider. The study will concentrate on companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2021 to 2023. The research will gather data from previous studies and select samples based on specific criteria. A total of 285 samples will be analysed in this study. The data will be analysed using panel data regression analysis, which is suitable for examining how the variables interact with each other over the designated time period. The results of this research indicate that companies with higher profitability, as measured by Return on Assets (ROA), tend to have a greater firm value. Conversely, there was no notable impact on firm value from Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), implying that consumers and investors may not rate CSR initiatives highly when evaluating company worth. Furthermore, the variable of firm size was shown to have a significant influence on firm value, with larger companies usually having a higher firm value.

Published: February 2025

Bucket handle injury tear is a traumatic injury to the abdomen where mesenteric avulsion of a segment of the intestinal loop occurs, potentially resulting in devascularization, ischemia, and hollow organ perforation. A prior systematic review reported 20 cases of mesenteric avulsion after blunt abdominal trauma and found that only 25% of cases exhibited symptoms of shock and/or hemodynamic instability. The objective of this study is to describe the profile of patients with bucket handle injury at Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, Surabaya, from 2020 to 2024. This study is descriptive research with a retrospective study design. Data will be collected from the medical records of patients treated at Dr. Soetomo General Hospital during the 2020–2024 period. Various parts of the intestine were affected, with the ileum being the most commonly involved in 10 patients (50%). Trauma to the transverse colon was observed in 5 patients (25%), the sigmoid colon in 4 patients (20%), and the jejunum in 1 patient (5%). The most commonly performed procedure was resection and stoma, carried out in 11 patients (55%). This was followed by damage control surgery in 3 patients (15%), resection and EEA in 2 patients (10%), Hartmann’s sigmoidectomy in 2 patients (10%), and other procedures in 2 patients (10%). After treatment, 11 patients survived (55%), while 9 patients passed away (45%). A common location for bowel wall hematoma (BHMT) in blunt abdominal trauma is near the junction of fixed and mobile bowel segments, such as the proximal jejunum and distal ileum.

Authors: Wulandari Ratna , Suzani Liana Fitri , Manurung Ernita
Published: February 2025

The postpartum period is a fairly important period for health workers to always monitor because less than optimal implementation can cause the mother to experience various problems, and can even lead to postpartum complications. Among the causes of maternal death, infection is the second most common cause of death after bleeding. The type of research used was descriptive, namely, to determine the mother's knowledge about postpartum visits. The sampling technique used in this study was total sampling. The total population is a sampling technique in which the total number of samples is the same as the population (Sugiyono 2010). Thus, the sample in this study was the entire population of postpartum mothers-form January to August 2024 in the Gunung Tua Health Center work area, totaling 34 people. Based on the data analysis conducted, it is known that the majority of respondents' knowledge is in the lowers category, (38.2%). This is understandable, considering that the majority of respondents' education was in the basic education category, (44.1%). Education is a formal and non-formal activity in an effort to develop a person's mindset, personality, and abilities, both inside and outside of school, as well as life experiences that last a lifetime. The majority of the respondents' knowledge was in the sufficient category, (17.6%). This is understandable, considering the majority of respondents' ages in the 21-35 year category, namely (47.0%). Most respondents' knowledge was in the insufficient category, (20.6%). This is understandable, considering that the majority of respondents' jobs were in the unemployed/housewife category, (44.1%). Every health worker, especially midwives, should be able to provide counseling to mothers regarding the importance of visits during the postpartum period.

To Trust and to Be Trusted: Exploring Levels and Drivers of Trust in and Between Courts in the European Multilevel Judicial System

Recently, a research agenda emerged on trust between courts in Europe, predominantly in the context of the preliminary ruling procedure or the Protocol 16 to the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). However, little is known about how trust differs across the levels of judicial hierarchy in a complex multilevel judicial system such as Europe. Building on the insights from trust literature and based on empirical evidence from surveys and interviews conducted with Slovenian and Croatian judges, this article explores the divergences and drivers of trust in and between courts in Europe. More specifically, it explores reciprocal trust between first-instance, second-instance, Supreme Court and Constitutional Court judges in Slovenia and Croatia, as well as one-way trust of national judges in the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) and the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR). The result show that courts are the most trusted among the political institutions and that the CJEU, the ECtHR and national Supreme Courts enjoy the highest levels of trust. Age, training in European law, knowledge of foreign languages and trust in national versus European institutions were found to be the most important drives of judicial trust in the CJEU and the ECtHR, while trust in national Supreme Courts and Constitutional Courts is driven by trust in national political institutions, age and type of court. The article also explores the concept of reciprocal trust and concludes that trust levels between the two courts in a reciprocal trust relationship are similar, which may suggest that trusting an actor in a reciprocal trust relationship may result in being trusted back.

Kelsen, Secular Religion, and the Problem of Transcendence

An alleged ‘return to religion’ in contemporary western politics (and science) prompted the Trustees of the Hans Kelsen Institut to posthumously publish Kelsen’s critique of the concept of ‘secular religion’ advanced by his early student Eric Voegelin. This paper identifies, firstly, what concept of transcendence is targeted by Kelsen, and argues that his analysis leaves scope for other conceptions. It does so in two steps: it summarizes the arguments against ‘secular religion’ (section 2) and it gives an account of the differences between Voegelin’s and Schmitt’s conception of transcendence – both under attack from Kelsen (section 3). It then submits an alternative account of the relationship between politics and religion in Modernity, building on the concept of a ‘civil religion’ as found in Rousseau’s Social Contract. Giving a Rousseauist slant to Claude Lefort’s analysis of political theology (section 4) it concludes that a thin concept of transcendence is part and parcel of every, in particular a democratic, account of politics. It should be a stronghold against any resurgence of religion that feeds on hypostatized transcendence. In closing (section 5), it is argued that two key concepts in Kelsen’s legal philosophy may well be understood as paradigms of thin transcendence, namely ‘the people’ and ‘the Grundnorm’.

En un context de vertiginoses transformacions mediambientals, tecnològiques, socials i culturals, aquest llibre presenta la història viva de la reflexió i la pràctica de l’ètica en la recerca a la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) explicada pels seus protagonistes.
La UAB va ser la primera universitat a l’Estat que va disposar d’un comitè d’ètica, en aquest cas d’experimentació animal. Durant les tres dècades que cobreix el llibre, s’expliquen els canvis que ha anat experimentant la revisió ètica de projectes de recerca, que en un primer moment eren biomèdics i més endavant també de ciències socials i humanitats. Aquest procés continua amb la presència de les tecnologies emergents, el big data i les plataformes digitals, entre d’altres.
El llibre és un testimoni de la necessitat de mantenir la reflexió ètica com a part inseparable del mateix procés de descoberta científica i de la necessitat de difondre i formar les noves generacions d’universitaris en els principis de l’ethos científic.

Para além de sua magnitude e mortalidade, o diagnóstico de câncer representa um problema de grande relevância para a saúde pública e em meio a um cenário desigual no acesso aos serviços de saúde, torna-se evidente o aumento da gravidade vivenciada pelas mulheres nordestinas diagnosticadas com neoplasia maligna da mama. Com isso, o objetivo da presente pesquisa foi descrever a prevalência, estadiamento e modalidade terapêutica de neoplasia maligna de mama em mulheres do nordeste brasileiro entre 2020 e 2023. O estudo epidemiológico, transversal, com abordagem quantitativa-descritiva foi realizado no Sistema de Informação do Câncer (SISCAN) via DATASUS. Os achados constataram um aumento crescente no número de casos em todos os estados do nordeste brasileiro no período analisado, com 39,90% correspondente à faixa etária entre 40 a 59 anos. No que se refere ao estadiamento do diagnóstico, 29,72 % dos 57.247 casos são estágio 3, com medida terapêutica mais utilizada sendo quimioterapia. A avaliação e o monitoramento contínuo das ações de controle do câncer permitem a identificação dessas barreiras e o planejamento de medidas para superá-las. Os resultados deste estudo ressaltam a necessidade de políticas públicas voltadas para a ampliação do acesso ao diagnóstico precoce, o fortalecimento das redes de tratamento e a promoção de campanhas educativas na redução de fatores de risco, buscando melhorar o prognóstico e a qualidade de vida das pacientes.

O crescimento da população idosa no Brasil, aliado ao aumento de doenças crônicas não transmissíveis, reflete no uso frequente de medicamentos por esse grupo etário, incluindo a prática da automedicação. Este estudo teve como objetivo identificar os fatores associados à automedicação em idosos atendidos na Atenção Primária à Saúde no município de Picos, Piauí. Trata-se de uma pesquisa descritiva, transversal e quantitativa. A coleta de dados foi realizada em março e abril de 2024, utilizando um formulário digital aplicado via Epicollect5, abrangendo cinco Estratégias de Saúde da Família e uma amostra de 378 idosos, calculada a partir de 2.388 cadastrados. A análise foi feita no IBM-SPSS, com estatísticas descritivas e Teste Exato de Fisher. A média de idade dos participantes foi de 68,8 anos (±7,3) e a prevalência de automedicação foi de 85%, sendo mais frequente para tratar dores de cabeça (78,2%), dores musculares (57,7%), além de gripes/resfriados (43,8%). Os principais motivos incluíram resolução prévia sem consulta médica (56,1%) e orientação de terceiros (32%). As classes mais utilizadas foram analgésicos (65,3%), relaxantes musculares (30,4%) e anti-inflamatórios (24,3%). Homens automedicaram-se com maior frequência (p = 0,044) e a automedicação foi significativa entre aqueles com percepção negativa da saúde (p = 0,012), a presença de doença crônica também influenciou (p-valor = 0,018) nessa prática. Conclui-se que a automedicação entre idosos é prevalente, exigindo ações direcionadas para minimizar seus riscos.
