Zmartwychwstanie umarłych jako jeden z dynamicznych wymiarów eschatologii
Authors: Dańczak Andrzej
Published: July 2022

The understanding of the bodily resurrection used to cause many problems during the history of the Christian theology. Also the catholic area was a scene of an interesting and wide discussion on the interpretation of the event, aiming at the elimination of many paradoxes present in eschatology. The debate unfortunately bas not bad a satisfactory result and bas not led the research to common conclusions. One of the possibilities of the solution is a wider and dynamic understanding of the resurrection, based on anthropological and biblical data. It requires a transposition of some traditional dimensions of the resurrection to other areas. Many aspects of the traditional contents of the theological meaning of the resurrection are in fact present already in the meaning of the event of death. It is there that a person experiences a total collapse of all vital forces but also a passage to another life. Thus the non-finality of death itself becomes part of human experience. Besides, the situation immediately after death means the entrance to the dimension of a personal fulfillment. Both themes belong to the theological meaning of the resurrection of the dead. Some other aspects of the resurrection are also present in the description of the Christian life and spring from the mystery of baptism whose meanings expressed in the language of the New Testament, among other things, in the resurrectional terms. Thus the resurrection cannot be seen as a static event of the end of times but rather as a dynamic event, some aspects of which are present already by means of the participation in the paschal mystery of Christ accessible by baptism, with later gradual and continuous progress and also with gradual fulfillment in the eschatological stadium where the material dimension of the creation must be included in order to make it possible to speak of the new creation.
Strategie wychowawcze św. Pawła wobec Koryntian
Authors: Guzewicz Mieczysław
Published: July 2022

One of the apostolic and literary activities of St. Paul is education. Paul’s pedagogy comes from the desire to imitate Christ’s attitude, in fidelity to God and his commandments, but also from Paul’s experience with his closest disciples and followers. In his letters, Paul shows with courage his interior, often torn apart by the negative behavior of the Christians. He feels connected with the representatives of communities founded by him like a parent with his children. The Apostle feels responsibility for Christian’s formation, their spiritual state and the quality of their relationship with Jesus.
Mądrość pośredniczką wzajemnej miłości Boga i człowieka (Syr 4,11-19)
Authors: Piwowar Andrzej
Published: July 2022

Verb agapaō (to love) occurs only 23 times in the Book of Ben Sira (the verb fileō, instead, does not occur even once!). In the instruction of Wisdom in Sir 4:11-19 it appears as many as four times. It does not seem to be accidental. The analysis of the text carried out in the present article shows that Wisdom functions as a mediator between God and humans. It is Wisdom that leads human being to God, and it is through her mediation that humans receive the gifts that they deserve on the basis of their attitude toward Wisdom and toward the Lord.The first part of the examined passage (vv. 12-16; verse 11 constitutes an introduction), shows a refined theological and poetic structure. The verses 12-14 constitute the first section that focuses on the love of Wisdom and God. The second section (vv. 14a-16) focuses on one’s dedication to Wisdom and, through her mediation, to God. The focal point of the analyzed text can be found in v. 14b: “the Lord loves those who love her”. In v. 17 we read about the test, to which Wisdom put her disciples in order to ascertain their faithfulness and dedication. The last two verses reveal the results of this trial: first positives and then negatives. Wisdom in Sir 4:11-19 appears to be a reliable guide on the way to God. It is Wisdom that introduces her disciples into the close relationship with God. She is a Divine Educator, bringing up human beings in order that they could fully meet God and remain in God’s love.
„Dzisiaj kwiatem, jutro słomą” – tajemnica ludzkiego przemijania w Ps 90
Authors: Tułodziecki Tomasz
Published: July 2022

Psalm 90 stands at a critical juncture in the overall scheme of the Psalter. It is the first psalm in the small collection of Ps 90–106 which constitutes Book IV of the Psalter. This song, which begins as a mourning cry, then rises to an angry complaint, and seems to conclude in a desperate resignation, at  the end arrives at a breadth and depth of meditation on the coherence of divine actions and the corresponding human reaction. The Hebrew verb turn/return occurs three times in Psalm 90. It is the verb used in the prophetic literature to call on the people to return to their God. In Ps 90:3 God is pictured as (re)turning humans to the dust whence they came by ordering, “Return, children of mankind!”. Surprisingly, however, in the v.13, which constitutes the turning-point of the entire psalm, the psalmist calls on YHWH to “repent” and to show a change of heart. God is asked to be mindful of the fact that humans flourish for but a morning and they fade by evening (vv. 5-6). The author beseeches that the covenant loyalty (Hesed ) of YHWH might satisfy his servants in the morning, so that rejoicing and gladness may follow for a new lifetime. In this context, the references to God’s “work” and to his “glorious power” (v. 16) seem to take on a double meaning. The appeal is not only for a restoration of the nation of Israel by powerful acts of divine intervention. The appeal is, perhaps even more, for YHWH to show his work, the work of compassion (v. 13), and to make his power known by his covenant loyalty (v. 14) and favor (v. 17).

Wszechmoc w płaszczu niemocy. Sprawiedliwość Boża w perspektywie chrystologicznej według Josepha Ratzingera/Benedykta XVI
Authors: Szymik Jerzy
Published: July 2022

Christology is the key to understand God’s justice. Jesus – the Son who is one in substance with His Father – shows what God’s justice is and how different it is from men’s rules. God overcomes the logic of repayment, a suitable reward or deserved punishment, not through ignoring or excluding them, but through omnipotent love that makes Him assume the burden of responsibility and pay the price of Salvation. Incarnation of the Son of God, which leads Him inevitably to death and sacrifice of His life, redeeming the sense and intentions of all the previous sacrifices, becomes an expression of God’s justice. It returns a man to God as His possession and restores the image and the likeness of God in us. Paradoxically, justice that does not reveal itself through power and authority, but through love and sacrifice, turns out to be omnipotent, since it is redemptive. As such, through its excess, it establishes the kingdom of God and becomes a criterion of Christian ethos.

Chrzest krwi jako heroiczny wyraz doskonałego świadectwa w nauczaniu Orygenesa
Authors: Duda Jerzy
Published: July 2022

Announcing God’s Word in connection with witnessing is the most basic of the Church’s tasks, stemming directly from its nature. In the first centuries of the Church, Christians often faced misunderstanding and persecution. This article presents quite an original conception of Origen (died ca. AD 253) concerning the issue of witnessing in its most radical form: martyrdom. Adamantios calls that the “baptism of blood”, treating it as the perfect form of advocating for Christ (imitatio Christi). Martyrdom is a projection of Christ’s paschal mystery. The baptism of blood cooperates with the passion sacrifice of the Savior in a great soteriologic process of redemption and purification of the world, leading all people to eschatological, glorious union with God in the glory of heaven. The heroic ideal of perfection outlined by Origen aimed not only at strengthening Christians during their testing and persecution, but also at reminding them of the basic task of apostolic mission: witnessing by all Christ’sbelievers.
„Świadectwo” (‘ēdût) w kapłańskiej koncepcji sanktuarium i przymierza
Authors: Lemański Janusz
Published: July 2022

The theological meaning of the word ‘ēdût, which is used in the priestly narrative about the construction of the Tent of Meeting, has long been a topic of debate. A synchronic analysis allows us to see in it “two stone tablets”, a kind of artifact which Moses puts into the Ark and which is not to be seen again. It symbolizes and brings to mind all the words of God passed on by Moses at Sinai. On other hand, diachronic analysis allows us to think that the idea of the Ark did not belong to the priestly strata of PG but rather was added later (PS). It has also been suggested that in P originally the Ark was called the Ark of Meeting and then the Ark of Testimony (the connection between j‘d and ‘dwt → ‘d). In its original form, the narrative about the Ark might have suggested the traditional role of the object: it symbolized the presence of God and was understood as the footstool of His invisible throne, where the treaty was kept. Later, the concept of the place of meeting with God was transferred to the Ark-cover (kappōret), and ‘ēdût (Testimony) became the symbol of the covenant stipulations. In the final phase it came to mean the two stone tablets with the Decalogue.

Dawidowe świadectwo o Bożym przebaczeniu w Iz 55,3-5 na tle wewnętrznych rozterek judejskich wygnańców (lata 550-539 przed Chr.)
Authors: Zawadzki Arnold
Published: July 2022

The article tries to describe the theology of David’s testimony in Isaiah 55:3-5 in light of its historical background, to wit the last decade of the Babylonian exile, and in relation to the internal quandary of Judean Exiles. The study undertakes an inquiry into the question of whether the eternal covenant in Isaiah 55:3-5 is the continuation of the Sinaitic Covenant, or rather does its content go beyond the Mosaic Law, creating a totally new relationship of God with Israel. The study also draws attention to the existence of a redactional addition, which shifts the weight of the original message from a revanchist Judeo-centrism toward the irenic ethno-centrism typical of the Book of Jonah.
Bóg wierny samemu sobie. Miłosierdzie według Ezechiela
Authors: Pikor Wojciech
Published: July 2022

Der Artikel versucht die Darstellung der Barmherzigkeit Gottes im Ezechielbuch wiederzugeben. Um auf die Anfangsfrage - was bewegt Gott zur barmherzigen Liebe zu Israel – zu antworten, wurden einige Kapitel, die über die vergängliche und zukünftige Geschichte des auserwählten Volkes sprechen untersucht. In der Ezechielsperspektive gründet sich die Barmherzigkeit Gottes ausschließlich auf Gott selbst. Angesichts der ständigen Auflehnung vom Haus Israel gegen Jahwe entsteht Gottes Verzeihung aus seiner Treue dem mit Israel geschlossenen Bund (Ez 16), aus seiner Sehnsucht nach dem Leben (Ez 18), aus seiner Sorge um seinen heiligen Namen (Ez 20) und aus seinem Will en sich durch Israel zu heiligen (Ez 36). Diese hoch theozentrische Vision bedeutet nicht, dass Gott sich egoistisch nur um seine eigene Herrlichkeit kümmert, sondern er möchte in dieser Art und Weise den Menschen als Teilnehmer an seinem göttlichen Leben mitmachen lassen.
Bóg nieskory do gniewu - bogaty w miłosierdzie (Ps 103)
Authors: Witczyk Henryk
Published: July 2022

In Psalm 103, God is portrayed as full of mercy, slow to anger. The author asks himself: how can one conciliate the picture of God who in His mercy heals the sinner with the image of God who is angry. The author analyzes several ways in which God's mercy is revealed in relation to the sinner and various forms of sin. Mercy means God's way of leading man away from evil, from the sin of pride, and particularly idolatry. Sins, which destroy man and tear him away from God arouse anger in God. The autbor proves that God, in showing mercy to man who realizes the effects of his sins and calls to Him, removes in this way the cause o f His anger. There are two images of God in Psalm 103 and in other Old Testament texts which are not in contradiction: a God of mercy and a God of anger. However, they should be seen dynamically: anger invokes mercy, which is always possible then, when man turns to God, who is God of the Covenant.
Miłosierdzie Boga w poglądach chasydów polskich
Authors: Jelonek Tomasz
Published: July 2022

Dalla ricchezza del pensiero dei cassidici polacchi scegliamo alcuni interventi che riguardano la misericordia. La prima riflessione che nasce dopo la lettura dei testi di questo: il misticismo giudaico non possiede il concetto della misericordia divina in quanto il piu caratteristico tratto di Dio nella sua relazione all'uomo ed i cassidici sono un'eccezione particolare. Come mai proprio la mistica non ha scorto il tema della misericordia nella S. Scrittura e non l'ha affrontato, il che sarebbe pure moltonaturale per essa?A questa domanda l'autore risponde con la domanda: se l'Antico Testamento ha una piena idea della divina misericordia? Nella lettura cristiana dell'Antico Testamento questa immagine ci appare a pieni co lori, marimane la questione, che cosa intenderebbe dalle stesse pagine un seguace della religione mosaica leggendole senza la luce delia rivelazione di Gesu Cristo? Potrebbe trovare in pieno la dottrina della misericordia nell'immagine di Dio Creatore, Dio dell'Alleanza, Dio della Giustizia e del Giudizio, se non solo i mistici giudaici non sono riusciti a rileggere questa immagine di Dio, ma essa manca anche nella teologia del giudaismo? L'autore arriva alle due conclusioni: per primo, il concetto della misericordia richiede una precisazione, soprattutto perche a questo termine si attribuiscono molti significati che lo rendono vago e gli fanno abbracciare diversi atteggiamenti che sono affini alla misericordia, ma non realizzano ancora tutta la sua profondita. Per secondo, se l'Antico Testamento ci dice qualcosa alla luce di quello Nuovo, questo non significa che dice lo stesso anche ad un seguace del giudaismo.

Starotestamentalne przymierza w interpretacji Orygenesa
Authors: Słomka Jan
Published: July 2022

La polémique avec les Juifs au sujet de la signification de la circoncision est l’un des motifs les plus importants de l’interprétation d’Origène sur l’alliance d’Abraham. Origène prouve qu’i l n’est pas possible de comprendre la circoncision au sens corporel. Dans son argumentation il se réfère à la typologie de Paul, voyant dans les événements de l’Ancien Testament l’annonce des événements du Nouveau Testament, mais il ne développe pas ce genre de typologie. On peut même constater qu’il évite radicalement des discussions détaillées quelle que soient, en pouvant rendre concrète cette typologie. Cette concision contraste nettement avec la prédilection pour l'interprétation spirituelle. Là, Origène approche des mentions de l’Ancien Testament sur la circoncision de la bouche, des oreilles, du coeur et il interprète en détail chacune d’elles en tant qu’un appel vers la perfection. En plus il déploie cette image sur tous les membres du corps, en attribuant à chacun d’eux une signification spirituelle.En conséquence de cette orientaton chez Origène la typologie: l’alliance-le baptême soit l’alliaince-l'Eucharistie n’apparaît pas. La matière - les signes de l’alliance n’annonçaient pas de signes materiels de sacrements. Surtout l’association de la circoncision avec le baptême serait entièrement opposée a la logique de son raisonnement. Dès qu’il souligne vivement que le signe corporel de la circoncision doit être saisi dans la perspective spirituelle, il ne peut pas désigner le baptême. Pourtant le baptême est aussi le signe matériel. Telle juxtaposition reduirait alors l’Eglise au même niveau sur lequelles Juifs demeurent, cependant l’Eglise n’est pas une simple continuation de la nation juive: les Juifs saisissaient Dieu d’une façon corporelle et les chrétiens, en revanche, - d’une façon spirituelle.L’accent mis sur «la vieillesse» et non sur la perfection d’Abraham est l’élément suivant, mais de deuxième ordre, qui éloigne l’alliance de l’interpretation d’Origène du baptême.L’alliance avec Abraham annonce alors une perfection définitive, une pleine union avec le Christ.
Pan młody i przymierze oblubieńczej miłości (Mk 2,18-22)
Authors: Adamczewski Bartosz
Published: July 2022

Fragment Mk 2:18-22 consists of two originally separate units: Mk 2:18-20 and 2:20-21. Each of them plays on the OT idea of covenant, which has not been broken by human sins, but is freshly renewed by merciful God. The new covenant of spousal love established in Jesus is not only an accomplished fact, but also always a challenge and invitation to seek Jesus - physically absent, but spiritually present for His people.

Psalmy szkołą Bożego przebaczenia
Authors: Tułodziecki Tomasz
Published: July 2022

Przedstawić Bogu własną winę jako coś przynależącego do mnie i zakładanego w sposób bezwarunkowy stanowi jedną z najważniejszych prawd rozpoznanych o Bogu i Biblii. Już psalmista wie, iż winien przynieść przed Boga swoją winę i potrzeby, nie odczuwając obawy przed potępieniem czy skazaniem. Należy o wiele bardziej mieć nadzieję na przebaczenie. Ps 130,4 mówi, że Bóg jest "Bogiem przebaczenia". Swoją dobrocią Bóg prowadzi proszącego do bojaźni i wiary  wobec siebie, tak że może on ufać Bożemu słowu i  obietnicy. Przebaczenie stanowi też tło nowego przymierza. Oznacza ono wypisanie na sercu Prawa (Jr 31,31-34). To Prawo wymaga zasadniczej przemiany człowieka. Przynależenie do nowego ludu Boga oznacza działanie nie w oparciu o stare, wypisane na kamieniu Prawo, lecz w oparciu o doświadczenie przebacznia, na którym należy budować własne życie.
Odpuszczenie grzechów w Kościele w nauczaniu świętego Augustyna
Authors: Eckmann Augustyn
Published: July 2022

Św. Augustyn tłumacząc odpuszczenie grzechów w Kościele, wiąże je ściśle z Kościołem jako miejscem działania Ducha Świętego. Chrzest usuwa grzech pierworodny i wszystkie grzechy popełnione przed chrztem. Biskup wie, że człowiek jest grzeszny i słaby, przez co ma potrzebę odpuszczenia również grzechów popełnionych po chrzcie świętym. Człowiek otrzymuje odpuszczenie grzechów poprzez modlitwę, jałmużnę i pokutę. Codzienna modlitwa przynosi odpuszczenie grzechów lekkich. Grzechy ciężkie wymagają paenitentia maior. Przebaczenie udzielone innym jest warunkiem otrzymania przebaczenia przeszłych grzechów. Konieczna jest zmiana życia na lepsze, dlatego nie jest możliwe odpuszczenie bez zmiany życia.
Przeżywanie ojcostwa w nauczaniu bł. Jana Pawła II
Authors: Kunka Sławomir
Published: July 2022

The article picks up the theme of fatherhood in the teaching of John Paul II. The basic ideas of the teaching are to be sought in the publications by K. Wojtyla like ReflectionsonFatherhood and Radiation of Fatherhood. The issue of fatherhood is important for every human being, it lays at the foundations of our identity. The one who believes in God is aware of “being begotten” (cf. Ps 2:7; Acts 13:33) and of coming from God. God the Father is a source of every fatherhood (cf. Eph 3:15). One cannot be a father without being a child (cf. Matt 18:3), and to be a child means to acknowledge the Father and to become his son/daughter. Christ revealed God as his Father, he spoke of Him “my Father”, he taught his disciples the prayer of “Our Father” (cf. Matt 6:8-9; Rom 8:15). The only begotten Son of God, as the second Adam, restores the fatherhood of God to man. This way he makes the “solitude” of Adam shine with the “radiation of fatherhood”.

The article presents an analysis of three figures of Lucan version of the infancy narrative: Zechariah (Luc 1,5-23.57-79), Simeon (Luc 2,25-35), and Anna (Luc 2,36-38). There at least two thing that make these people alike: they are all in their old age and they pray to God. Even though the material concerning these personages is not fully comparable, it is possible to capture some similarities in their prayer: historical perspective, eschatological dimension, and universalism. All these three people not only pray to God but also the bear a witness to God.

Published: July 2022

Introduction: India has witnessed a rise in TB-Diabetes co-morbid cases in the past few years. Both TB and diabetes create complications for each other not only in terms of the prognosis but also management. Glycaemic control is pivotal for the successful management of diabetes and the co-morbidity. Aim: To understand the barriers and challenges of successful management of diabetes among TB-Diabetes co-morbid patients in the Udupi district. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in the Udupi district of Karnataka from January 2020 to June 2020. Purposively selected Healthcare providers under RNTCP, were interviewed using a semi-structured interview guide. Each interview was fully transcribed. Data collection was terminated on reaching data saturation. A manual thematic analysis of the interview data was done using an inductive approach. Codes and themes were generated by a critical review of the transcripts. Results: Healthcare providers stated that certain patients such as, elderly, the homeless, and those with habits like alcoholism, were particularly difficult to manage. Besides, poor socioeconomic status, misconceptions, and lack of treatment adherence often create difficulties. Finally, participants also stressed the shortage of staff which impedes efficient management of the comorbidity. Conclusion: This study identified several barriers and challenges of diabetes management among TB-Diabetes co-morbid patients. These impediments, such as alcoholism, misconceptions, staff shortage, if addressed could aid in the better management of diabetes and eventually the co-morbidity.

Published: July 2022

Introduction: Self-medication is an essential public health issue specifically, self-medication with antibiotics is adding to the antimicrobial resistance which has become a global threat. There is a necessity to assess and understand the self-medication practices particularly, the migrant workers as they are considered to be a vulnerable community in the society. The study aimed to assess self-medication practices among the migrant workers and the objective was to understand the practices associated with self-medication among the migrant workers in Udupi Taluk, Karnataka. Material & Methods: A present study was a community-based cross-sectional study conducted in Udupi Taluk and 382 migrant workers were interviewed using a validated questionnaire. Data was entered and analyzed using IBM SPSS version 20. Results: The prevalence of self-medication was found to be 68.8% 263 of (382). The majority of the participants reported that pharmacy (88.6%) is the primary source of self-medication. The majority of the participants mentioned their symptoms to procure the medicines (70%). The majority of the participants were practicing self-medication for cough (24.7%) followed by fever (20.9%). Among these factors, gender and daily wage were found to be statistically significant (p value<0.05). The practice of self-medication was found to be higher in males (39.5%) as compared to females (29.3%). Conclusion: The study suggests that there is a pressing need to conduct an awareness program for migrant workers and they need to be aware of the nearest health care facility available to them.

Introduction: Birds are an integral part of ecosystem, they are commonly found all over the world. They can be parasitized by a wide variety of endo-parasites. Objectives/Aim: The current study conducted to identify and investigate the prevalence of endo-parasites from various captive bird species at main campus of PMAS-Arid Agriculture University, Rawalpindi. Methodology: Different standardized methods were used to collect fecal pellets from each bird species in early morning in a plastic bag and transferred to the National Veterinary laboratory (NVL), Islamabad for parasitological examination, eggs, oocytes, cysts and larva of pathogens. Prevalence of endo-parasites was estimated through geometric mean at confidence interval of 95%. Results: Total 403 fecal samples were collected from 13 bird species, 10 out of 13 avian species were found infected with endoparasites. The data on percentage occurrence of infection in avian species viz; pigeons (41.9%) were the most infected with endo-parasites as compared to golden pheasant (19.3%), pea cock (16.1%), cochin hen (12.9%), ring neck pheasant (9.6%), aseel hen (6.45%), polish hen (6.4%), brown hen (3.2%), red jungle fowl (3.2%) and bentum hen (3.2%). However, all of Budgerigar parrots, ducks and guinea fowl were not infected. It was found that Eimeriasp was more prevalent and isolated from Aseel hen (38.7%) and Golden pheasant (29.03%). Trichuris spp. was also more prevalent and isolated from golden pheasant (38.7 %). and other pathogens Ascaris spp. isolated from golden pheasant (16.1%) and peafowl (6.4 %), followed by Ascaridia spp. isolated from polish hen (16.1 %). It is concluded that Pigeons were most infected bird species and Eimeria spp, (38.7 %) and Trichuris spp. (38.7 %) were the most prevalent pathogens. Conclusion: Parasitic load can be managed by providing better healthcare facilities to birds, proper cleaning of waterers, vaccination of birds, proper nutrition and management of environmental conditions.

Authors: Narayanan Janani , Narayanan Vivek , Chandran Saravanan , Ramakrishnan Karthik , Gurram Prashanthi , Subramanian Abinaya
Published: July 2022

Introduction: Accurate evaluation of change in orbital volume occurring due to trauma is of paramount importance to achieve an optimal final outcome. Thus, the purpose of this study was to assess and evaluate the orbital volume both radiological and clinical means for accurate surgical correction. Aim: To assess the final surgical outcome using standardized clinical and radiological tools perioperatively to restore orbital volume in patients with orbital wall fractures. Materials and Methods: A prospective interventional study of patients with unilateral orbital wall fractures which was carried out for 24 months. A thorough clinical evaluation and ophthalmological assessments including visual acuity, field of vision was performed. All patients had HRCT for volumetric assessment and assessed clinically for enophthalmos using Hertel exophthalmometer. Based on the level of enophthalmos and orbital volume change, treatment plan was formulated. Intraoperatively Hertel exophthalmometer is used to correct the predetermined enophthalmos. Postoperatively the patients are followed-up at designated intervals to assess the surgical outcome. RESULT: Road Traffic Accident (RTA) was the common etiology of orbital fractures which accounts for 84.1% (n=53) and the most common clinical sign was enophthalmos which accounted for 76.2% (n=48). The mean and standard deviation of orbital volume is 35.20 ± 4.21 and change in orbital volume is 4.29±2.76. The mean and standard deviation were calculated for all patients in different time intervals. The result showed a statistically significant difference in pre-operative phase, intra-operative phase and it maintained throughout the postoperative phase. CONCLUSION: In our study we have found that meticulous preoperative and intraoperative tools to assess in orbital reconstruction gives a desired surgical outcome. Hertel exophthalmometer and HRCT based 3D reconstructed volumetric analysis can be an excellent tool to evaluate anteroposterior globe malposition and volume change.
Tourism and hospitality education in high school: A lifelong learning approach
Authors: PİNTO Mateus José Alves , NAKATANİ Marcia Shizue Massukado
Published: July 2022

There is little recognition of the significance or impact of a lifelong learning approach in tourism and hospitality (T&H) education in high school, mainly because nearly all discussions on the subject focuses on the higher education level. Nevertheless, schools can encourage students to become lifelong learners. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to bring together discussions on lifelong learning and T&H education at the secondary level by providing a bibliometric, systematic, and integrative literature review on T&H education in high school. The bibliometric review selected 40 papers on the topic published in 17 international journals. Then, the systematic review classified the publications in eight thematic categories. Lastly, the integrative review evaluated the research’s evolution at different decades. The study concluded that research topics on T&H education in high school became more diverse from 2010, indicating that it might be in its initial phase. Furthermore, research in traditional schools surpassed the vocational institutions’ ones, meaning that tourism and hospitality can integrate regular curricula more broadly, not only with a training perspective. Finally, the lifelong learning approach for T&H education in high school can introduce vocational and critical skills and foster learning experiences.

Published: July 2022

The article proposes to develop a method for determining the conformity of vector illustration to the laws of composition and design, which will help to engage in artistic work for people without special skills and abilities. The concept of the centre of the composition is analysed. The main criterion of equilibrium is determined - the distance between the optical and composite centre. As the first stage of the developed method, it is offered to define the area of an element and to bring an arbitrary figure to a polygon. An algorithm for determining the area of an object of arbitrary shape has been developed. The process of colour density determination is analysed, and its algorithm is developed. An algorithm for determining the equilibrium of the composition is proposed. A script has been created that implements the method of determining the compliance of vector illustration with the laws of composition and design. A script based on a specific one has been tested during a number of tests. According to the test results, the conclusions about the correct operation of the script were confirmed. A prototype of an automation system for creating vector illustrations in Adobe Illustrator has been created.

On para-complex structures of horizontal Sasaki gradient metric
Authors: El Hendi H. , Zagane A.
Published: July 2022

In the present paper, we consider the horizontal Sasaki gradient metric on the tangent bundle TM over an m-dimensional Riemannian manifold (M, g). We construct almost para-complex Norden structures on TM and investigate conditions for these structures to be para-Kahler. We finally study some properties of the horizontal Sasaki gradient Metric which is pure with respect to some para-complex structures on TM.

Published: July 2022

In this paper, we introduce the Pell-Eisenstein Series which is obtained by Pell numbers and they are a new class of Eisenstein-type series. First, we see that they are well-defined and then we prove that the Pell-Eisenstein series satisfies some functional equations. Proofs are based on properties of Pell numbers and calculations.
On discrete q-derivatives of q-Bernstein operators
Authors: Karsli H.
Published: July 2022

In the present paper, we shall investigate the pointwise approximation properties of the q analog of the Bernstein operators and estimate the rate of pointwise convergence of these operators to the functions f whose q-derivatives are bounded variations on the interval [0, 1]. We give an estimate for the rate of convergence of the operator (B n, q f) at those points x at which the one-sided q- derivatives Dq+ f(x), Dq−  f(x) exists. We shall also prove that the operator's B n, q f converge to the limit f. As a continuation of the very recent study of the author on the q-Bernstein Durrmeyer operators [10], the present study will be the first study on the approximation of q analogous of the discrete type operators in the space of DqBV.

The printed invitation is commonly used in our community to invite others to special events. In Indonesian society, this has happened inviting someone from door-to-door by sending printed invitations. Due to rapid information technology development, we proposed a website-based online invitation platform, Invitin. In general, the Invitin project has three main actors, which are customer, customer service, and admin. The methodology that we used was based on the SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) and applied Scrum framework. Implementing the Invitin project using Scrum helps to organize development tasks easier and provides other benefits in some cases. Thus, Scrum increases our team productivity to develop a high-quality dynamic website application.
Rheological studies of some model samples of bases for manufacturing soft drugs
Authors: Остащенко Т. М. , Дроздова А. О.
Published: July 2022

Wound treatment is complex and differentiated depending on the nature and origin of the wound. Comprehensive treatment of wounds includes both local and general therapeutic measures. Local and general wound healing complement each other and accelerate the achievement of a positive result. Local treatment of wounds is carried out with antiseptics according to the phases of the wound process.

Not only medical but also pharmaceutical components are important in the development of a drug for the treatment of wounds, in particular the compliance of a mild drug to the phase of the wound process.

The aim of the work was to study the structural and mechanical properties of some model bases for the creation of a mild antimicrobial drug for the treatment of wound processes.

The object of the study were model samples of bases made on the basis of polymers (gel) and emulsions of the first kind (oil/water) – cream. In order to create stable emulsions, the surfactant N 1 emulsifier in the maximum amount of 8% and vaseline oil – up to 20% were selected. 10 model samples in the form of gel (samples 1–5) and cream (samples 6–10) were processed and rheological studies were performed. Measurement of rheological parameters of ointment bases was performed using a rotary viscometer Reotest-2 according to the method of the State Pharmacopoeia of Ukraine.

Based on the research, it was found that the samples of cream and gel bases belong to the dispersed structured systems, which are characterized by elastic-plastic-viscous properties. Model bases are dispersed systems with coagulation type structure. It is proved that all model samples have a non-Newtonian type of flow. Their fluidity begins after the application of a certain mechanical stress.

Lubrication and extrusion of tubes characterize the consumer properties of the samples. It is shown that the flow curves fit within the rheological optimum, which allows us to conclude that the test specimens are satisfactorily lubricated and extruded from tubes.

Based on the conducted rheological studies, it was found that the presented model samples can be used as carriers for the creation of pharmaceutical compositions with active pharmaceutical ingredients.

The prospects of this study are the study of structural and mechanical parameters of model samples – thixotropy, mechanical stability.
The Link Between Gastrointestinal Microbiome And Ocular Disorders - A Review
Authors: Alfuzaie Rashed
Published: July 2022

The gut-eye axis has been hypothesised to be a factor in many eye pathologies. This review examines numerous papers from PubMed about this topic. Bacterial commensals could either be protective by regulating the immune system or prove to be damaging to the gut mucosal wall and incite an inflammatory process. The balance between the two appears to be crucial in maintaining eye health. Uveitis seems to be the most studied link. However, retinal conditions and recently glaucoma have been implicated in such process. The use of probiotics, dietary modifications, antibiotics, and FMT in mice with pathologies like those encountered in our practice, appears to halt the ocular disease course or at least prevent its progression. Clinical trials are currently underway to investigate the clinical significance of diseased patients.

Published: July 2022

Background; Pain at the surgical site is an important concern, especially in locations of main joints which may resolve important limitations of movement.

Materials and Methods; We present the case of painful dysesthesia after knee surgery for traumatic meniscal rupture in a young lady. She presented with painful dysesthesia, limitation of knee flexion, and severe pain in light touch and pressure on the mid-patellar area of the left knee. 

Tinel’s sign at the site of surgical scar, dysesthetic area (abnormal sensation) corresponded with the medial reticular nerve at surgical exploration under a microscope.

Results; Microsurgical exploration of the three nerves of medial subcutaneous nerves revealed the branch stack in the scar. The distal end was internalized subfascial inside the muscle fibers of the medial vastus of quadriceps femoris muscle according to Dellon. The other two were released from adherences and found to be in anatomical continuity were left in place. Immediate resolution of dysesthesia was referred by the patient and the amplitude of motion was complete at one-month postoperative control. She remains pain-free 4 months from surgery and the area of dysesthesia remains anesthetic at the center.

Conclusions; Surgical identification and rerouting of the distal end of sensitive nerves is an efficient treatment after peripheral nerve injury.
Characteristics, Effect of Histological Grade and Localization on the Prognosis of Colorectal Cancer. A retrospective Study.
Authors: Çuedari Enkelejda , Ikonomi Majlinda , Pema (Kristo) Anila , Tarifa Dhurata
Published: July 2022

Background: Colorectal cancer is the third most deadly cancer and the fourth most frequent in the world according to GLOBOCAN 2018. The number of new cases is growing up, which may also be related to lifestyle. Many studies have shown a difference in the number of males and females, correlation of localization, stage, and grade with prognosis.

Material and Methods: In our study were included operated cases with colorectal cancer in University Hospital Center “Mother Theresa” during the period from January 1, 2016, to December 31, 2017.

In our study, the total number of patients enrolled is 334. In the end was evaluated the correlation between histological grade, stage, and localization with prognosis.

Results: From the study resulted that males were affected more than females by colorectal cancer.

The average age of diagnosis of colorectal cancer is 63.9 (±12.4) years. Moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma, histological grade II and pathological stage pT3N0Mx after TNM are predominant.

The commonest localization is the rectum. Disease-free survival is better in stages I and IIa than in other stages, least favorable in poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma.

Conclusion: In Albania, patients diagnosed with CRC showed a low survival rate specific to cancer.

The type of histology, the stage of cancer, the level of CEA at diagnosis, and the type of treatment a patient received significantly determine the mortality rate.

Therefore, cancer screening programs can help to detect the disease at an early stage and initiate timely available treatments in order to extend the life expectancy of CRC patients.

Published: July 2022

Perioperative management of patients with preexcitation may become quite challenging, especially if there is no time for adequate preoperative investigation and clinical optimisation, as in emergencies, or even worse, in undiagnosed cases. It is possible that the poorly controlled or unknown underlying electrophysiological abnormality will become unmasked during anaesthesia and surgery, giving rise to potentially life-threatening arrhythmias.

In the literature, pre-excitation syndromes have been mainly approached from the view of the disease (i.e., presentation, diagnosis, treatment), while anaesthetic data are scarce.

This case report aims to focus on the perioperative management of patients with WPW.

Conclusion; Managing such cases provides an opportunity to revisit important considerations on Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome Avoiding neuromuscular blockers may make a difference in avoiding arrhythmias when laryngeal mask airway / general anaesthesia is required in patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. Sympathetic stimulation should be avoided as it may shorten the refractory period of AP and alleviate life-threatening arrhythmias.
Asymmetry in Gasoline Price Transmission: How do Fuel Pricing Strategy and the Ethanol Addition Mandate Affect Consumers?
Authors: Raeder Francisco Teixeira , Rodrigues Niagara , Losekann Luciano Dias
Published: July 2022

This work aims at verifying the existence of asymmetries in gasoline price transmission between refining, distribution, and gas stations. The analysis covers two moments: before (2006-2016) and after (2016-2020) the new fuel pricing strategy adopted in the refining sector. Before 2016, gasoline prices in refineries were stable due to price intervention. After that, prices fluctuated in convergence with the international market. In this paper, we also consider ethanol prices. Due to an addition mandate, ethanol prices influence gasoline price' dynamics. Our hypothesis is that there are “rocket” and “feather” patterns. This means that positive changes in costs are rapidly and fully transmitted to prices, while negative cost changes tend to be transmitted gradually. As a consequence, there is a cost for consumers. We use Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares estimators and Error Correction Models to test the presence of asymmetries and Cumulative Response Functions to measure consumer cost. Results confirm an asymmetric price transmission and indicate that the new pricing strategy has changed the readjustment dynamic. Although we detect asymmetries in both periods, the new pricing strategy proved to be better for consumers, as social costs decreased after its adoption.
COVID-19 Shock and Sectorial Index Response in South Africa: A Cross-sector Analysis
Authors: Vengesai Edson
Published: July 2022

The prime objective of this study was to examine the impact of COVID-19 shock on sector returns of the South African Stock market. The study employed the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model estimated with a Pooled Mean Group estimator on a sample of daily stock returns of 10 Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) sectors. The results indicate a heterogeneous behaviour in sector stock return response to COVID-19 shock. The study shows that the Pandemic negatively impacted the majority of the sectors. However, some sectors were positively affected by the outbreak, while some were resilient to the shock. The pooled ARDL panel results show a negative relationship between COVID-19 and stock market returns in the short run. The study found an insignificant relationship between stock market returns and COVID-19 cases in the long run. The study also shows that sector and stock return response to different factors is time-varying. The results imply that COVID-19 shock is short-lived, the negative impact of the Pandemic is corrected in the long run. Stock market investors should thus focus on the long-run behaviour of stock returns. The results evidence the significance of diversification in different stock market sectors for investors
