Aristoteles Felsefesinde Birey ve Devlet Açısından Eğitim Meselesi
Authors: BAŞOK DİŞ Sebile
Published: June 2021

Aristoteles, eğitim konusunu insana özgü olduğunu düşündüğü niteliklerden yola çıkarak hem birey hem de devlet açısından ele alır. Ona göre “toplumsal bir hayvan” olan insan ancak toplum ve devlet içinde iyi bir yaşama kavuşabilir. Diğer yandan bireyin amacı da iyi yaşama ulaşmaktır. Bu bakımdan insanın iyi bir topluma ve iyi bir devlete ihtiyacı vardır. Kişilerin eğitimi onların iyi bir yaşama ulaşmaları için gereklidir ve bu eğitimi sağlaması gereken de devlettir. Halkın eğitimini devletin sorumluluğu altında gören Aristoteles, bir insanın nasıl yetiştirilmesi gerektiği sorusunu farklı açılardan ele alarak yanıtlar. Bu çalışmada Aristoteles’in eğitim konusunu, birey ve devlet açısından nasıl ele aldığı gösterilmeye çalışılacaktır.
Kadınlara Özel Bir Kamusal Alan: Yalvaç Mahalle Fırınları
Authors: AYDIN TÜRK Yelda , MOLLAYAKUPOĞLU Selcen
Published: June 2021

Mekânsal düzenlemeler, kentsel ya da mimari olsun, tarih boyunca ve değişik kültürlerde, kadın ve erkek arasındaki eşitsizliği kuvvetlendirecek biçimde ortaya çıkmıştır. Toplumsal cinsiyet rolleri kadın ve erkeğin kent mekânını farklı deneyimlemesine sebep olmuş, kamusal alanlar erkek ağırlıklı kullanıma ayrılırken, kadın özel alanla ilişkilendirilmiştir. 21. yüzyıla gelene kadar mekânsal uzam açısından kadın ve erkek arasında bir eşitlikten söz edilmesi mümkün olmamıştır. Geleneksel kültürlerde kamusal alanda kadının görünürlüğü genellikle sınırlıyken, yerel topluluklar bazında kadınlara özel kamusal mekânlar bulunabilmektedir. Anadolu’da yaygın olarak kullanılan tandır fırınları bu türden cinsiyetlendirilmiş mekânlara örnek olarak gösterilebilir. Bu çalışma kapsamında incelenen Yalvaç mahalle fırınları ise ekmek pişirme tekniği bakımından Anadolu’daki benzerlerine göre farklılık göstermektedir. Üretim taş fırınlarda yapılırken, fırıncılık mesleği anneden kıza geçen bir sanat olarak Yalvaç kültüründe önemli bir yere sahiptir. Çalışmada Yalvaç yaşam kültüründe geleneksel mahalle fırınlarının geçmişten günümüze geçirdiği dönüşümler ele alınmaktadır. Literatür taraması, saha çalışması ve yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmeler ile çalışma verileri elde edilerek değişkenler arası bağımlı ilişkiler yorumlanmıştır. Kentsel yapılı çevre ve sosyo-ekonomik yapıda zaman içinde meydana gelen değişimlerin, mahalle fırıncılığı geleneğini yok olma noktasına getirdiği görülmüştür. Yapılan değerlendirmeler, halihazırda bu kültürün yaşatılması için yürütülen güncel çalışmalara katkı sağlayabilir.
Çocukluk Sosyolojisi Tarihi
Authors: BAŞARAN Emrah
Published: June 2021

Sosyolojik çalışmalarda yeni bir araştırma alanını oluşturan çocukluk konusuna olan ilgi özellikle 1980 sonrası dönemde artış göstermiştir. Bu ilginin ortaya çıkmasında sosyolojide mikro ölçekli konuların çalışılmaya başlanmasının etkisi olmuştur. Diğer taraftan özellikle bu dönemden sonra aile içerisinde çocuğun bir “birey” olarak görülmesi de bu ilginin oluşmasında önemli bir paya sahiptir. 2. Dünya Savaşı sonrasında dünya düzeninin yeniden şekillenmeye başlamasıyla birlikte ortaya çıkan UNICEF gibi uluslararası kuruluşlar çocukların eğitimi, korunması ve hakları konularında bir duyarlılık oluşmasını sağlayarak bu konuda önemli işlevler yerine getirmiştir. Berry Mayall ortaya koymuş olduğu Çocukluk Sosyolojisi Tarihi’nde çocukluğa sosyolojik bakabilmeyi hedeflemiştir. Çocukluk sosyolojisi çalışmalarına derinlik kazandırma peşinde olan Mayall, farklı ülkelerden örneklerle “çocukluk tartışmalarının” nasıl yapıldığını detaylı bir biçimde ele almaktadır.
Latîfe ez-Zeyyât’ın El-Bâbu’l-Meftûh (Açık Kapı) Adlı Romanında Kadın Teması Üzerinden Ulusal ve Bireysel Özgürlüğün İnşâsı
Authors: ÇELENLİOĞLU Asiye
Published: June 2021

Batı’da görünürlüğünü yitirdikten sonra Doğu’da gündem olmaya devam eden kadın hak ve özgürlükleriyle ilgili sorunlar, hâkim ideoloji tarafından Şark’a mahsus olarak lanse edildiği gibi otoriter rejimlerdeki demokrasi sorunundan beslendiği de göz ardı edilmiştir. Söz konusu bölgede kadın ve vatan olgusu, “namus” temelli bakış açısıyla ulusal tarih yazımında başat rol oynarken Mısır’da kadının ulusal direnişten beslenen özgürlük arayışı, zamanla bireysel bir tavra evrilir. Ülkede kadın hareketiyle ilgili tarihi akış yanında edebî literatür de bu yönde bir birikime sahiptir. Bölge ülkeleri arasında Batı ile teması en erken gerçekleşen Mısır’da, o dönem meydana gelen yeni fikir akımlarından beslenen ilk Mısır romanı Zeynep’e konu olan kadın olgusu, direniş romanları başta olmak üzere edebi literatürde yer almaya devam etmiştir. Latîfe ez-Zeyyât’ın kronolojik olarak Hür Subaylar Darbesinden hemen önce başlayıp on yıllık dilimde Mısır siyasi tarihindeki gelişmelere değindiği Açık Kapı (el-Bâbu’l-Meftûh, 1960) romanında bu mücadele oldukça barizdir. Roman; kadının toplumsal alanda milli direnişten beslenen görünürlüğü, özgürlüğü önündeki gelenek, norm gibi engellerle mücadelesi ve benlik arayışını konu edinmektedir. Söz konusu çalışma gündelik hayatın sıradan eylemleriyle normları esneterek kimliğini inşa eden kadının öznel tavrını genel kavramlarla açıklamayı hedeflemektedir.

Interseccionalidad: una mirada hacia grupos poblacionales que ejercen sexualidades subordinadas en Montería
Authors: Ramón Alarcón Orlando
Published: June 2021

este escrito tiene como principal intención analizar el estado en que se encuentran las «prostitutas» y «habitantes de calle» en Montería, a fin de articular las acciones de diferencias de poder en torno a ésta especie tipo, a la luz del análisis interseccional. El enfoque metodológico abordado es el estudio de caso con una profundidad descriptiva, con resultados provisionales. Este es un análisis novedoso del cual no hay evidencias empíricas en este municipio. Sin embargo, algunas investigaciones ya existentes en otras latitudes vinculan “género, raza, clase, nacionalidad, etc., como formas separadas para categorizar a las personas, que no tienen una interconexión lógica” (Connell, 2010). A pesar de ello, los hallazgos indican que ambos grupos poblacionales requieren atención a favor de la protección de sus derechos humanos, que les permita fundamentar el panorama político–jurídico para la protección de los intereses y capacidades de esta población.
DERECHO Y EDUCACIÓN

Este artículo recoge el derecho de origen jurisprudencial, referido al derecho a la educación de niños y niñas menores de cinco años de edad proferido por la Corte Constitucional colombiana durante el periodo comprendido entre el año 1994-2017. Esta narrativa, busca estructurar el material jurídico examinado. El «problema jurídico» planteado es ¿Al no prestar el servicio de educación preescolar, particularmente, en los grados de pre–jardín y jardín a niños menores de 5 años se vulnera el derecho fundamental a la educación de esta población? La metodología utilizada es la línea jurisprudencial, propuesta por Diego López Medina, quien considera que […] “en algunos casos, el uso de esta técnica muestra como la ratio decidendi del fallo fundamentado en hechos materiales, muestra una importante diferencia, con respecto a la manera usualmente doctrinaria de como se analiza la jurisprudencia en Colombia” (2005, p.147).

Exploring digital health acceptance of Korean baby boomers: Comparison of telemedicine to wearable healthcare device (Preprint)
Authors: Kim Eunhye
Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND

The global phenomenon of an aging population has introduced various challenges in today’s society; the most apparent and critical being an increase in medical and health costs. As digital technologies evolve, digital health presents a possible solution to these challenges. It has been studied that digital health provide various benefits for aging population, but their acceptance rate of digital health remains low.

OBJECTIVE

The current research attempts to find the way to enhance the acceptance rate by investigating influential factors which affect digital health acceptance behavior of older adults. Among the aging population, we focus on Korean baby boomers, because they are now entering the elderly generation and expected to be main users of digital health. Based on the behavioral model of health service use and a multi-dimensional value perspective, we developed the research model to compare influential factors of telemedicine and wearable healthcare device, which are subcategories of digital health service. The influential factors include predisposing (health belief, respondent characteristics), enabling, and need. We compare these two services, because they have different characteristics so the strategy to promote baby boomers’ acceptance rate of each service should be different.

METHODS

To examine the research model, we conducted face-to-face surveys with 300 baby boomers. The survey consisted of two sections: telemedicine and wearable healthcare device. We used measurement instruments that had been validated in previous studies.

RESULTS

The measurement model and structural model of each research model were evaluated. It proved that the reliability and validity of measurement items of each model are quite satisfactory. The structural model test illustrates three types of health beliefs (cost saving, enjoyment, and information) are important for acceptance of both telemedicine and wearable healthcare devices. Usefulness and reassurance are only significantly influence telemedicine and wearable healthcare devices, respectively. Among enabling and need factors, the number of people living in the household and subjective health have effects on intention to accept telemedicine and wearable healthcare devices.

CONCLUSIONS

The results illustrate the appropriate target user of digital health service (those in better health and have fewer family members) and the benefits provided by its use (increased enjoyment, information, and cost savings). The results also revealed further unique benefits offered by telemedicine and wearable healthcare device: usefulness and reassurance, respectively.
Political Polarization and Selective Exposure of Social Media Users in Indonesia
Authors: Januar Ali Denny , Eriyanto Eriyanto
Published: June 2021

This study is intended to answer the question of how political polarization is related to social media users’ posts about Covid-19. The researchers chose health cases related to Covid-19 instead of political issues (e.g. elections) to prove that this political polarization has spread to many areas. The research also wants to see the relationship between this political polarization and selective exposure. Theories applied in this study are polarization, filter bubble, and selective exposure. The study applied two methods: social media network analysis and content analysis. The network analysis included 82,156 posts, while the content analysis was carried out on 4,050 social media accounts. The research outcome proves the occurrence of political polarization. Social media users were divided into two major groups, namely pro-Jokowi and anti-Jokowi. Each group interacted with fellow users who had the same political choices and shared the same message content. Users with certain political choices tend to receive the same information as their political choices, and ignore information from other political parties. Another interesting finding from this study is how this polarization was sharpened by the use of hashtags. Each party (supporters and oppositions of Jokowi) uses hashtags to create solidarity and mobilization from each supporter. Research also proves the validity of the selective exposure and filter bubble hypothesis in the Indonesian context.

Feminismo, género e injusticias epistémicas
Authors: Chaparro Amneris
Published: June 2021

El artículo hace un recuento de la manera en que se ha configurado el conocimiento feminista dentro de la academia y su impacto en el establecimiento de los estudios de género como campo de conocimiento interdisciplinar, por un lado, y de la epistemología feminista como base teórico-metodológica crítica, por otro. Pese a sus enormes aportaciones a las ciencias y las humanidades, los estudios de género y la epistemología feminista son también blanco de injusticias epistémicas. Siguiendo el trabajo de Miranda Fricker (2007), se hace una reflexión teórica sobre la manera en que el conocimiento creado por mujeres y sujetos feminizados es recibido con déficits de credibilidad, rechazo y exclusión, así como de sus implicaciones en la reproducción relaciones de desigualdad.

Mapas para decir “nosotras” / Política de lo común y proyecto feminista
Authors: Gil Silvia L.
Published: June 2021

En este trabajo, se interrogan las posibilidades transformadoras del feminismo en un momento en el que se expande sin precedentes. En este contexto, aparecen nuevos dilemas: ¿hacia dónde vamos?, ¿quiénes son las compañeras en este viaje?, ¿caben todas las posturas en esta revuelta?, ¿pueden ponerse líneas rojas?, ¿quién es el sujeto que se hará cargo de estas interrogantes?, ¿hay solo un sujeto o se trata de muchos? La hipótesis es que el feminismo en la actualidad reconstruye un nuevo “nosotras” que afronta el problema filosófico-político de cómo considerar las diferencias sin reducirlas a una nueva unidad, al tiempo que permite enunciar universales concretos y abiertos, reformulando su comprensión clásica como formas vacías. Este “nosotras” es capaz de recombinar de manera virtuosa las diferencias, la igualdad radical y el desafío de lo común, e impulsa una de las preguntas más difíciles de nuestro tiempo: ¿cómo vivir juntas y juntos a partir de otros criterios ético-políticos en un marco de intensificación de la violencia, la vulnerabilidad y la desafección, y en un tiempo de crisis de las antiguas formas de acción política?

Teatralidad y performance en Foster y Butler: sobre el lugar de la coreografía en la filosofía
Authors: Vallejos Juan Ignacio , Franko Mark
Published: June 2021

Este ensayo parte del análisis de un artículo de Susan Leigh Foster que critica la aplicabilidad de la idea de performatividad de Judith Butler a los estudios de danza, y en particular, el rol del travestismo como una subversión de las normas de género. Foster propone el concepto de coreografía como una alternativa al de performatividad, porque compromete el imaginario histórico y la memoria cultural de la danza, entendida como una materia cuyo análisis debe ser fundamental para la reconceptualización del género a través del movimiento. El artículo revisa esta disputa como un conflicto entre los estudios de danza y la filosofía, y explora las diferencias entre ontología y teatralidad que se encuentran en la raíz del conflicto entre Butler y Foster.

“Fue un terremoto”: violencia obstétrica y relatos de mujeres en Chile
Authors: Salinero Rates Stella Maris
Published: June 2021

El objetivo de este artículo es explorar las transformaciones que la vivencia de violencia obstétrica ha producido en la percepción que las mujeres tienen de sí mismas, esto es, su autoimagen, su cuerpo y sexualidad. A través de los relatos de vida cuatro narradoras-colaboradoras de las regiones metropolitana y de Valparaíso (Chile), he podido conocer cómo en sus transformaciones conviven aspectos negativos con otros positivos, desde una primera etapa de fuerte cuestionamiento y culpabilización, pasando por estados depresivos y suspensión de la sexualidad por largos periodos. La elaboración de la experiencia conllevó una ardua tarea de reapropiación del cuerpo por medio del autoconocimiento, junto a la emergencia de una conciencia ético-crítica que las movilizó a compartir su experiencia con otras mujeres.

The social development are more social-oriented and prioritizing people through participatory approaches. This asrticle discusses the evaluation of a Community as social development project in the Mbleliling forest area, West Manggarai. The community group founded by multi-stakeholders called Forum Masyarakat Peduli Kawasan Mbeliling (FPKM) is intended to social development around the forest area. After one year, the forum has been evaluated on a large multistakeholder meeting. The evaluation results show that the forum has not been able to answer the multistakeholder expectations against its founders. The problem of funding and coordinating are the main factors causing the inability of the forum to carry out the institution's mandate.Pasca kritik pembangunan berorientasi fisik berkembang beberapa dekade terakhir, berkembang konsep pembangunan sosial yang lebih berorientasi pada aspek sosial dan mengutamakan manusia melalui pendekatan partisipatif. Artikel membahas evaluasi terhadap proyek pembangunan sosial melalui kelompok masyarakat di kawasan hutan Mbeliling, Manggarai Barat. Kelompok masyarakat yang dibentuk oleh multifihak yang bernama Forum Masyarakat Peduli Kawasan Mbeliling (FPKM) tersebut ditujukan untuk pembangunan sosial kemasyarakatan di sekitar kawasan hutan. Setelah satu tahun didirikan, dilakukan evalusi terhadap keberadaan forum. Hasil evalusi menunjukkan bahwa keberadaan kelompok belum mampu menjawab ekspektasi multistakeholder terhadap pendirinya. Katiadaan dana dan sulitnya berkoordinasi menjadi faktor penyebab utama ketidakmampuan forum menjalankan mandat lembaga.

An Analysis of the Informational Value of Sovereign Credit Ratings
Authors: Lim Kok-Tiong , Kwek Kian-Teng
Published: June 2021

The sovereign credit ratings (SCRs) have been an integral part in the global financial system in asset allocation and price discovery. The zero bound policy rate (ZBPR) and quantitative easing programme (QEP) rolled out by the four key central banks as antidotes to the global financial crisis (GFC) would have altered the assumed premise on SCRs relevancy. This preliminary study is crafted for a validation on whether the SCRs informational value on sovereign bond yields (SBYs) and sovereign credit default swap spreads (SCDSSs) was indeed affected when ZBPR and QEP were in effect. A sample of 32 countries with observations spanning from 2008 to 2017 to encompass the period of ZBPR and QEP in effect was used for analysis. The empirical results show that SCRs informational value was indeed rendered irrelevant on SBYs price discovery since 2008 and the effect on SCDSSs came in later from 2012 onwards.
Testing alternative conceptual models of river-aquifer connectivity and their impacts on baseflow and river recharge processes
Authors: Mehmood Tayyab , Miller Gretchen , Knappett Peter
Published: June 2021

This study characterizes the dynamics of exchange fluxes between Brazos
River Alluvium Aquifer and the Brazos River, TX, USA. Seven alternative
conceptual models for the connection between the river and the aquifer
were simulated in HYDRUS 2D using small-scale, high-resolution transects
across the river. These models assumed varying aquifer lithology and
river incision depths and considered processes such as riverbed clogging
and seepage face flows. The simulations were forced by observed river
stage values and tested against observed hydraulic heads in two nearby
monitoring wells. The nearly 1.5 years of sub-hourly measurements
spanned both flood and drought periods. The best-fit conceptual model
supported a hypothesized hydraulic disconnection between the subsurface
near the river and the wider alluvial aquifer. In contrast to the
assumptions of previous studies, these data were more consistent with
the presence of an abandoned paleochannel rather than riverbed clogging
or other low-permeability zones. The implications for
groundwater-surface water exchanges, and their modelling, are profound.
Across the range of models, the difference in average baseflow predicted
was nearly 13 m3/d/m, equivalent to seven times the firm water rights
allocated for river users.
Calcified Right Ventricular Fibroma in an Adult: A Case Report
Authors: Gao Huanhuan , Yuan Shuai , Hu Zhiqiang , Zheng Zhelan , Wu Shengjun
Published: June 2021

Background: Cardiac fibromas are rare benign tumors of the heart
composed of fibroblasts and collagen. They are common among children and
adolescents but are rarely present in adults. Case presentation: We here
report the case of a fifty-seven-year-old man who complaining of a
2-year history of chest tightness at rest. Transthoracic
echocardiography detected a severe calcified mass protruding outside the
right ventricular anterior wall near the apex. The patient was referred
for tumor resection. The calcified mass was determined to be a cardiac
fibroma with postoperative histopathological examination. The patient
experienced an unremarkable post-operative recovery and was discharged 8
days later. Subsequent follow-up has shown complete freedom from his
troublesome symptom. Conclusions: Preoperative diagnosis with various
imaging modalities and early surgery are the keys to improve prognosis
of patients with cardiac fibromas.

Published: June 2021

Febrile neutropenia and lung infections are common and potential fatal
complications of pediatric cancer patients during chemotherapy. Lung
ultrasound (LUS) has a good accurancy in the diagnosis of pneumonia in
childhood. To our knowledge there are no studies concerning its
utilization in the diagnosis and follow-up of pulmonary infection in
children with cancer. The goal of this pilot study is to determine the
accuracy of lung ultrasonography for the diagnosis and follow up of
pneumonia in children and adolescents with cancer during fever. This is
a prospective observational case-control monocentric study conducted in
the Pediatric Hematology and Oncology Department of University Hospital
of Catania in patients aged<18 years with cancer, with or
without fever. Attending Physician used ultrasonography to diagnose
pneumonia in children with cancer during fever. Non infected cancer
patients were also tested with LUS to evaluate its accuracy. When
performed, the results of chest X-ray and chest CT scan were compared
with LUS results. Thirty-eight patients were studied. All underwent LUS,
16 underwent CXR, 3 chest CT. Statistical analysis showed LUS
specificity of 95%, and sensitivity of 100%; CXR, instead showed a
specificity of 80% and a sensitivity of 50%. The positive predictive
value of LUS was 90% while that of CXR was 50%. The negative
predictive value of LUS was 100% while that of CXR was 80%.This study
shows for the first time that LUS allows physicians to diagnose
pneumonia in children and young adults with cancer, with high
specificity and sensitivity.

Published: June 2021

A 79-year-old woman with a history of open heart surgery presented with
severe aortic stenosis (AS). Computed tomography (CT) showed chronic
type B aortic dissection (TBAD) between the distal aortic arch and the
left common iliac artery. After careful consideration, we planned
transfemoral (TF)-transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) using a
20-Fr long sheath to minimize contact with the false lumen of the aorta.
TAVI was performed under general anesthesia, guided by transesophageal
echocardiography (TEE). A transcatheter aortic valve was successfully
implanted. TEE, immediately after valve implantation, showed no
remarkable changes in the descending thoracic aorta. Repeated
post-procedural CT examinations showed no obvious changes in the aorta.
The patient was stable without sequelae at the 12-month follow-up. This
case demonstrates that TF-TAVI using a long sheath under TEE guidance
can be a treatment option for patients with severe AS and chronic TBAD.

Mapping Meaning and Purpose in Human-Robot Teams: Anthropomorphic Agents in Military Operations
Authors: Cappuccio Massimiliano L. , Galliott Jai C. , Sandoval Eduardo B.
Published: June 2021

We spontaneously tend to project animacy and sensitivity to inanimate objects and sometimes we attribute distinctively human features like intelligence, goals, and reasons to certain artificial devices. This phenomenon is called “anthropomorphism” and has been long studied by researchers in human-robot interaction and social-robotics. These studies are particularly important from the perspective of recent developments in military technology, as autonomous systems controlled by AI are expected to play a greater and greater role in the future of warfare. Anthropomorphistic effects can play a critical role in tactical operations involving hybrid human-robot teams, where service members and autonomous agents need to quickly coordinate relying almost exclusively on fast, cognitively parsimonious, natural forms of communication. These forms rely importantly on anthropomorphism to allow human soldiers read the behavior of machines in terms of goals and intentions. Understanding the cognitive mechanisms that underpin anthropomorphistic attributions is hence potentially crucial to increase the accuracy and efficacy of human-machine interaction in military operations. However, this question is largely philosophical, as numerous models compete in the space of social cognition theory to explain behavior reading and mental states attribution. This paper aims to offer an initial exploration of these mechanisms from a perspective of philosophical psychology and cognitive philosophy, reviewing the theories in social cognition that are most promising to explain anthropomorphism and predict how it can enable and improve natural communication between soldiers and autonomous military technologies.
Introduction to the anthropology of photography in Serbia
Authors: Naumovic Slobodan , Brujic Marija , Mitrovic Katarina
Published: June 2021

Despite significant strides from the beginning of the 20th century, there was
no systematic or institutionalized reflection on photography in Serbian
ethnology and anthropology until the 1980s. Until then, photography was
mainly used as an additional technical tool for field recording,
documenting, and presenting field materials in museums or scientific
institutions. However, since the end of the 20th, and especially at the
beginning of the 21st century, an increasing number of social scientists
have included photography in their works, either through historical and
theoretical reflection or through practical use in specific research. This
step can be related to the institutionalization of the sub discipline of
visual anthropology in Serbia. The paper presents the assumption that both
flows are part of a broader process called the visual turn, and the
associated flourishing of systematic thinking about visual culture. In this
paper, we aim to reconstruct the main features of the visual turn in the
local academic community and point out some of its consequences. In
addition, our goal is to present the most important achievements related to
the mentioned turn, and consider their impact on recent examples of thinking
about photography, i.e. its use in ethnological and anthropological research
in Serbia. This paper emphasizes the examples that are important in the
theoretical, methodological, or applied-scientific framework.
Somebodies or nobody’s patient: The importance of social positioning and informal relations during childbirth in Serbia
Authors: Pantovic Ljiljana
Published: June 2021

Anthropological research on post-socialism points to the need for informal
relations when navigating social and health care systems, while feminist
research on childbirth points out the negative consequences of the dominant
medicalized model of childbirth on women?s experience. This paper combines
these two types of research and points to the role of informal relations in
negotiating childbirth in Serbia and the role of peoples social positioning
influencing the possibilities of using these relations. Based on eighteen
months of ethnographic fieldwork on the practices of providing maternal
health care in Serbia, the aim of this paper is to show how a woman's social
position affects her ability to establish a relationship within the state
health care system, and to reconsider the claim that informal relationships
can protect women from interventionism during childbirth in Serbia. Using
informal relations (veze) in order to have your doctor during childbirth is
a key concern for women in Serbia. Informal relations transform women from
(no)bodies into somebodies, someone?s patient. Women of poorer economic
status, women from rural areas, and often women of Roma ethnic origin have
limited opportunities to establish informal relations in state maternity
hospitals. Informal relations do not fully protect women from interventions
but affect the type and timing of interventions.

OBJECTIVE

Stress, sleep, eating behavior, and physical activity are associated with weight change and insulin resistance (IR). The aim of this analysis was the assessment of the overall and sex-specific associations of psychobehavioral variables throughout the 3-year PREVIEW intervention using the homeostatic model assessment of IR (HOMA-IR), BMI, and length of time in the study.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

Associations of psychobehavioral variables, including stress, mood, eating behavior, physical activity (PA), and sleep, with BMI, HOMA-IR, and time spent in the study were assessed in 2,184 participants with prediabetes and overweight/obesity (n = 706 men; n = 1,478 women) during a 3-year lifestyle intervention using linear mixed modeling and general linear modeling. The study was a randomized multicenter trial using a 2 × 2 diet-by-PA design.

RESULTS

Overall, cognitive restraint and PA increased during the intervention compared with baseline, whereas BMI, HOMA-IR, disinhibition, hunger, and sleepiness decreased (all P < 0.05). Cognitive restraint and PA were negatively, whereas disinhibition, hunger, stress, and total mood disturbance were positively, associated with both BMI and HOMA-IR. Sleep duration, low sleep quality, total mood disturbance, disinhibition, and hunger scores were positively associated with HOMA-IR for men only. Participants who dropped out at 6 months had higher stress and total mood disturbance scores at baseline and throughout their time spent in the study compared with study completers.

CONCLUSIONS

Eating behavior and PA, control of stress, mood disturbance, and sleep characteristics were associated with BMI, HOMA-IR, and time spent in the study, with different effects in men and women during the PREVIEW lifestyle intervention study.

Authors: Philippov Yury I.
Published: June 2021

The MEDLINE database and PubMed.com web-platform are the world’s best-known and most used sources for search scientific information in biology and medicine. Indexing in MEDLINE and making a journal searchable through PubMed.com is a most powerful tool to promote it worldwide. No other databases, even Scopus and Web of Science, can be compared with MEDLINE in terms of its effect on the readability and availability in web-search results. At the same time, medical and biological journals from Russia have serious problems with the MEDLINE indexation results in an extremely low presence of publications from Russian journals in this database. Over the past decade, the number of Russian journals indexed in MEDLINE has significantly decreased. Present article discusses the main characteristics of the MEDLINE database and PubMed.com, their journal selection process and the reasons for their high importance in scientific journals promotion, as well as the experience of submitting journals for peer review to be indexed in this database. Both positive and negative experience of preparing a journal for indexing in MEDLINE is considered, this can help the editors and publishers of all biology and medicine journals in Russia in solving this task.

Sublating Rationality: The Eucharist as an Existential Trial
Authors: Gordon Liran Shia
Published: June 2021

The Eucharist as a pillar of Christian life and faith stands at the center of the Mass. It carries multi-dimensional meanings and functions, each of which addresses different aspects of the Christian life and mindset. The main question that we will attend to is what happens to the rational framework of the believer or non-believer as s/he affirms or denies that the consecrated bread and wine are Christ’s body and blood. Following Edward Schillebeeckx’s phenomenological approach, it will be argued that such a reformulation of the rational framework accords with Heidegger’s reevaluation of the question of Being. The present reading limits itself to the encounter between the mind and the phenomenon and does not proceed to the meaning of the Eucharist as part of the Mass and the crucifixion of Christ. As such this study is not a historical study nor a sociological or anthropological one.

Tanjung Benoa and Jemeluk Amed are two famous marine tourism sites in Bali. This study aims to determine the state of coral ecosystem in its life form, factors associated with coral damage, and the strategy to manage coral in those two area. We used two methods: Line Intercept Transect (LIT) and SWOT. The live coral coverage condition in Tanjung Benoa is in moderate and worse category. While the Jemeluk Amed is in moderate level and good condition, respectively. Factors causing damage to coral ecosystem are: the corals are under pressure, some corals are already bleaching, the anchoring activity and oil spill from ships, and algae. The coral reefs ecosystem in Tanjung Benoa and Jemeluk Amed can be sustained in good condition with government support and NGOs in the development of environmentally friendly activities and monitoring studies, implementation of coral reef preservation rules (prohibition of taking coral reefs) and colaboration of the community, government, and NGOs to carry out coral reef rehabilitation and monitoring studies. As one of the tourism area in Bali, the role of universities are needed for continuous research on the state of coral reefs to maintain environmentally friendly and sustainable tourism.Keywords: Coral reef; Life form; Strategy; Marine conservation.
