Authors: Fauziyah Isma , Syafei Isop
Published: December 2024

Motivation is essential for the success of Arabic language learning, as students' internal drive affects their engagement and effort in understanding the material. However, enhancing this motivation can be challenging. The edutainment method is considered a potential solution to improve student motivation in learning Arabic. This study aims to increase motivation through the edutainment method at Al-Mu’izz Islamic Elementary School in Bandung. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected through observation, achievement tests, and documentation. The findings show that the edutainment method significantly impacts the motivation of fifth-grade students at Al-Mu’izz Islamic Elementary School. The average pretest score was 47.22, while the posttest score was 84.00, demonstrating a clear improvement. The difference is further confirmed by the t-test result, which shows a significance value of 0.001, less than 0.05. Therefore, it can be concluded that the edutainment method significantly enhances student motivation in Arabic learning at this school.

Batu Bara Malay is one of the varieties of Malay used by the people in the Batu Bara area, North Sumatra, which has significant differences from Indonesian. This study aims to conduct a comparative analysis of the phonemic structure of Batu Bara Malay in the Coast and Indonesian. A qualitative approach was used in this study with a contrastive analysis method to identify similarities and differences in the sound system, including vowel and consonant phonemes, intonation, and the use of word stress between the two languages. Data were collected through interviews with native speakers of both languages to obtain data on the use of sounds contextually and document analysis by analyzing related documents such as language dictionaries, and academic articles to compare the use of the same or similar words between the two. The results of the study show that there are significant differences in the phonetic structure between Batu Bara Malay in the Coast and Indonesian, including vowel phonemes, Batu Bara Malay in the Coast has more variations compared to Indonesian. There are unique variations in each language, for example differences in the pronunciation of several consonants and vowels. Intonation patterns are also different, thus significantly affecting the meaning of sentences.  The use of word stress also varies, thus affecting communicative understanding between individuals.

“I need to belong”: Examining a negative halo effect for expressions of the need to belong
Authors: McIntyre Kevin P. , Peebles Matthew M. , Mattingly Brent A.
Published: December 2024

We examine a problem faced by individuals with a high need to belong; expressing a desire for social relationships may make it more difficult to form them. In particular, we suggest expressions of heightened belongingness needs create a negative halo effect whereby people expressing those needs appear to be less attractive and more desperate to potential relationship partners. In two experiments, participants viewed hypothetical targets who endorsed high, moderate, or low levels of the need to belong, and then rated these targets on measures of social attractiveness and social desperation. Results revealed that participants rated both high and low need to belong targets as low in social attractiveness (Experiment 1, N = 116) and social stature (Experiment 2, N = 111), relative to the moderate need to belong target. However, participants rated the high need to belong target significantly higher in social desperation, compared to the moderate and low need to belong targets. Lastly, social desperation significantly mediated the association between (high vs. moderate) expressed need to belong and social attractiveness, suggesting that expressing heightened need to belong is uniquely unattractive to others as it conveys a sense of social desperation. Overall, these results suggest that when they express a desire to form close relationships, those high in the need to belong may have a difficult time achieving a sense of belonging.

Published: December 2024

Several investigations have addressed the study of dark triad traits only as specific factors and without taking into account countries where these tendencies can be expressed in culturally diverse ways. The present study aimed to analyze and compare quantitative models of the general tendency of dark personality traits using the bifactor model and a network comparison network across four countries: United States, Peru, Serbia and Germany. A total of n = 2715 adults (59% female, M = 31.04) participated considering open-access data and Peruvian data collection. The well-known dark triad instruments such as the Short Dark Triad and Dirty Dozen scales were used. The results revealed that a bifactor model of the Dark Triad exhibited satisfactory fit indices, and the estimated networks reflected a unique and stable structure of positive correlations of aversive traits in general and in specific clusters. The Machiavellianism domain of the Dirty Dozen scale was the most consistent measure of centrality (expected influence and bridge-expected influence) and predictability that favored interconnectedness with the other traits in the overall multicultural network. Finally, structural differences in dark trait connections were identified in all countries except among European countries.
Loneliness, stigma, and the tendency for interpersonal victimhood inhibit compassion for some but not all suffering social groups
Authors: Ray Colter D. , Wang Ningyang Ocean , Duede Lindsay A. , Garza Ben , Burns Julien
Published: December 2024

This study extends recent research on correlates of compassion for suffering social groups. Using a nationally representative sample of 627 U.S. adults, this study used cross-sectional survey data to determine if loneliness, the tendency for interpersonal victimhood, and stigmatizing attitudes held toward suffering social groups correlated with less compassion for suffering social groups. Participants were randomly assigned to respond in regard to one of three suffering social groups: adults who are addicted to opioids, unemployed adults who have been hurt by the rising prices of goods and services, or women who do not have access to reproductive health care in their area. Both main effects and interaction effects were hypothesized. Results showed significant main effects in which loneliness, stigmatizing attitudes held towards a suffering social group, and the tendency for interpersonal victimhood were negatively related to compassion felt for suffering social groups. Additional exploratory analyses showed that these main effects depended on the specific suffering social group. Whereas all three variables inhibited compassion for adults addicted to opioids, only loneliness and stigmatizing attitudes inhibited compassion for the unemployed, and only stigmatizing attitudes inhibited compassion for women lacking access to reproductive health care. These findings can be used to guide the development of future interventions that may address issues that inhibit compassion towards those who are suffering, particularly those in suffering social groups that are stigmatized.

Extending the reach of the common cause design using meta-analytic methods: Applications and issues
Authors: Thompson Christopher G. , Yeaton William H. , Velasquez Gertrudes , Petrova Kitchka , Becker Betsy J.
Published: December 2024

Most meta-analytic methods examine effects across a collection of primary studies. We introduce an application of meta-analytic techniques to estimate effects and homogeneity within a single, primary study consisting of multiple, pretest-intervention-posttest units. This novel assessment was used to validate the recently created “Common Cause” (CC) design. In each case, we established the CC design by eliminating control groups from randomized studies, thereby deconstructing each experiment. This deconstruction enabled us to compare difference-in-difference results in randomized designs with a control group to pretest-posttest differences in a CC design without a control group. Meta-analysis results of multiple OXO effects from the CC designs were compared to meta-analytic effects of multiple randomized studies. This within-study-comparison logic and associated analyses produced consistent similarity between CC and validating-study results when directions of findings and patterns of statistical significance were considered. We provide plausible explanations for varying CC effect-size estimates, describe strengths and limitations, and address future research directions.

Authors: VILLAROEL HUGO
Published: December 2024

INTRODUCCIÓN: El síndrome de cauda equina (SCE) es el conjunto de signos y síntomas que resultan de la compresión de las raíces nerviosas distales a L2, la literatura médica menciona algunas causas, la hernia discal extruida ocupa el primer lugar. El síndrome de cauda equina es una urgencia quirúrgica, la mayoría de autores recomiendan realizar la descompresión antes de las 48 horas de evolución, lo cual mejora su pronóstico de forma ostensible.
PRESENTACIÓN DEL CASO: Se trata de un reporte de caso clínico y revisión de literatura, es decir nivel de evidencia IV.Presentamos el caso de un paciente con SCE secundario a hernia discal lumbar extruida confirmado por resonancia magnética nuclear, sometida a discectomía más descomprensión temprana de canal medular mediante técnica abierta descrita por Senegas.Para el seguimiento clínico se utilizó la escala de Daniel para la valoración neuromotora, Oswestry y escala visual análoga(EVA) para el dolor lumbar.
DISCUSIÓN: La descompresión quirúrgica temprana de la cauda equina mediante esta técnica obtuvo una recuperación clínica satisfactoria evidenciada en el posoperatorio inmediato y en el seguimiento a los 3 y 6 meses; se comprobó recuperación motora del 100% y evolución urológica satisfactoria, logrando control adecuado de esfínter vesical.
CONCLUSIONES: la descompresión precoz evita que una lesión incompleta progrese hacia una parálisis completa de esfínteres, lo cual mejora el pronóstico clínico posquirúrgico.

Authors: Villarroel Rovere Hugo , Romero Pillajo Cristian , Jaramillo Becerra Carlos
Published: December 2024

INTRODUCCIÓN: El colgajo fasciocutáneo sural inverso (RSFF) descrito por Masquelet et al., es útil para la reconstrucción de lesiones alrededor del talón y tobillo. Los defectos cutáneos alrededor del talón son comunes, pero es infrecuente que se asocien con rotura total del tendón de Aquiles. Se han publicado varios tipos de injertos para la reconstrucción del tendón de Aquiles, Myerson  describe el uso de un aloinjerto de tendón de Aquiles con un bloque de hueso calcáneo para el tratamiento de la tendinopatía degenerativa de Aquiles pero no hay reportes de su uso en casos agudos.
OBJETIVO: Demostrar la factibilidad de combinar colgajo sural inverso con aloinjerto de cadáver de tendón de Aquiles en lesiones agudas y describir su resultado funcional final.
PRESENTACIÓN DEL CASO: Se trata de un reporte de caso clínico y revisión de literatura. Un paciente adulto joven con pérdida de cobertura cutánea y además rotura completa del tendón de Aquiles en su inserción calcánea. Para su resolución quirúrgica se usó injerto cadavérico de tendón de Aquiles y la cobertura cutánea con técnica de colgajo sural de flujo reverso descrita por Masquelet. Para la valoración funcional se usó la escala de AOFASS.
DISCUSIÓN: El colgajo sural de flujo reverso es muy versátil, ideal para la reconstrucción de tobillo. Pocos estudios han combinado colgajo sural reverso y plastia del tendón de Aquiles en un mismo tiempo quirúrgico, pero han demostrado resultados satisfactorios.La asociación de esta técnica, con la tendinoplastia usando aloinjerto cadavérico es poco habitual pero muy útil, en nuestro caso demostró ser eficaz, redujo tiempos quirúrgicos y reprodujo resultados funcionales excelentes sin ninguna complicación.

Authors: Villarroel Rovere Hugo Ernesto , Delgado Zambrano María Dolores , Betancourt Castillo Manuel Enrique , Villarroel Pérez Adrián Ernesto
Published: December 2024

Introducción: La osteotomía varizante supracondílea de apertura (OVSA), para corregir genu valgum tiene buenos resultados; pero tiene complicaciones como retardo de unión, falta de unión debido a fractura de la cortical interna (bisagra). La incidencia de fracturas de la bisagra es alta. El objetivo del estudio es describir un procedimiento adicional a la técnica habitual de OVSA externa, para prevenir la fractura de la bisagra interna, y reportar sus resultados funcionales.
Métodos: Se describen 2 casos intervenidos en el Hospital Alcívar en abril del 2024 por presentar genu valgum artrósico, se realizó la técnica de osteotomía supracondílea de apertura, para fijar la bisagra interna se usó un clavo de Steinmann y tornillo de Acutrak, para rellenar la apertura se colocó injerto óseo de banco, fijándose con placa. Realizamos telemetría pre y postquirúrgica, valorándose los resultados funcionales con la escala KSS.
Resultados: Ambos casos consultaban por deformidad en valgo y artrosis, en un caso unicompartimental con dolor y en el otro caso tricompartimental sin dolor, la movilización postquirúrgica fue inmediata, en un caso la osteotomía consolido en 2 meses iniciando el apoyo total, en el otro paciente fue a los 3 meses.
Discusión: La OVSA tiene una sobrevida 93-100% a 5 años y 83.3% a 10 años. La OVSA lateral conlleva riesgo de fractura de bisagra interna (hasta 48%) y por ende mayor índice de complicaciones de la consolidación ósea. Actualmente cuando realizamos una OVSA para corregir eje, la mayor preocupación va dirigida a planificar el sitio de la osteotomía y a prevenir la fractura de la bisagra con una fijación percutánea adicional. A los 6 meses de evolución tenemos muy buenos resultados funcionales
Conclusiones: Usando la OVSA junto con la protección de la bisagra contralateral, se obtuvieron resultados favorables en la función y en la estabilidad de la rodilla afecta, siendo un tratamiento efectivo para los pacientes con genu valgo sintomático.

Published: December 2024

Introducción: Las fracturas aisladas de los cóndilos unilaterales posteriores del fémur en el plano coronal se conocen como fracturas de Hoffa y son poco comunes. Tienen indicación quirúrgica absoluta, se ha utilizado solo tornillos canulados en sentido anteroposterior, después se asociaron tornillos en sentido transversal y actualmente para aumentar la estabilidad se utilizan también placas de neutralización.
Métodos: Durante 10 años (Enero 2014 a Septiembre de 2024), fueron intervenidos quirúrgicamente en el Hospital Alcívar 3 pacientes que presentaban fracturas de Hoffa, se usó la clasificación Letenneur y la de Bagaria. Escala de KSS a los 3 y 6 meses de postoperatorio.
Resultados: Las fracturas de Hoffa tiene una incidencia del 0.25%, todos los pacientes fueron varones, edad promedio de 29 años, solo un paciente tuvo un accidente de alta energía y presentó lesiones asociadas, los otros fueron de baja energía con una condición predisponente. En dos casos se utilizaron solo 3 tornillos canulados; en un caso se utilizaron 2 tornillos canulados y 2 placas de neutralización. Hubo consolidación al tercer mes, apoyo parcial a las 10 semanas y total a las 12 semanas, los resultados funcionales finales fueron superiores a 80 puntos en los 3 pacientes.
Conclusión: Esta lesión tiene indicación quirúrgica absoluta, requiriendo reducción anatómica precisa y fijación estable, que nos permita la movilización temprana de la rodilla. Actualmente la fijación ideal que se utiliza es la combinación de tornillos canulados en 2 planos y placas de neutralización.

Authors: Jima Gavilanez Dolores , Nerváez Graber César
Published: December 2024

Una de las principales complicaciones en el paciente oncológico quirúrgico es la malnutrición, por este motivo se revisó el caso de una paciente femenina de 66 años, la cual se encontraba en estado crítico con cirugía radical oncológica HIPEC, por lo que el estado nutricional influye en la tolerancia de dicho tratamiento, siendo así uno de los mayores campos de innovación y desarrollo en la medicina. Además, debe ser tratada de una forma particular, ya que los pacientes con este tipo de enfermedad deben recibir una atención oncológica interdisciplinaria.
El manejo adecuado del soporte nutricional cumple un papel fundamental en pacientes oncológicos quirúrgicos, ya que la malnutrición disminuye la calidad de vida del paciente, aumenta el riesgo de infecciones, reduce su fuerza y masa muscular, aumenta la prevalencia de morbimortalidad. Por esto, la intervención nutricional anticipada puede mejorar el pronóstico de los pacientes y lograr disminuir la tasa de complicaciones de dicha enfermedad.
Es necesaria la participación entre el oncólogo y el especialista en nutrición clínica. Por este motivo, un idóneo soporte nutricional permitirá un exitoso tratamiento oncológico completo, siendo que la nutrición hoy en día aporta sustancias para poder rectificar la respuesta de las neoplasias con mecanismos de acción. (Fort, 2016) Las cuales son diferentes a los citostáticos actuales que se muestran en el caso.
LA MEDICINA DE LAS NUEVAS GENERACIONES

Published: December 2024

Desde la época en la que Hipócrates, el padre de la medicina, escribió su juramento que ha sobrevivido los milenios, muchos amaneceres han atravesado el calendario como raudo y ligero suspiro. En los días donde Galeno describía que las manos, ojos y oídos eran las principales herramientas para hacer el diagnóstico de enfermedades, se escribieron plétoras de libros con fértil información médica dirigida al mejoramiento de la salud de la humanidad. Un tour a los hospitales de antaño nos enseñaría la riqueza de lo que podemos descubrir con una prolífica anamnesis. El esfuerzo de quienes nos precedieron en la ciencia para hacer relucir los síntomas y la observación minuciosa de los signos, llevó a nuestros antecesores a tejerla sólida estructura de la medicina moderna. Sin computadoras ni tomógrafos, ellos llegaban a diagnosticar las entidades patológicas que rigen hoy nuestro diario deambular como peregrinos y magnates de los caminos hospitalarios.
 
La vida médica actual sería impensable sin la participación salvadora de las imágenes y el laboratorio. El descubrimiento del microscopio, los exámenes bioquímicos, las computadoras y los rayos X, con sus diferentes aplicaciones, abrieron las puertas a un infinito que no deja de asombrar. Desde el enigmático virus que diezma la población durante una pandemia hasta las imágenes 3D de un scanner que ayuda a encontrar un cáncer oculto, las ilustraciones gráficas de nuestra anatomía en tiempo real y las mediciones de valores en los líquidos corporales, guían nuestras decisiones para un diagnóstico acertado, una prescripción correcta o una cirugía precisa y detallista.

Published: December 2024

La investigación profundiza en las dimensiones rituales y ontológicas del afrontamiento de la aflicción y en el carácter devocional que supuso el trance [y posesión] entre africanos esclavizados y descendientes en América. y cuyo sentido estuvo en el apaciguamiento emotivo del sufrimiento como posibilidad de reencuentro, renacer o amanecer. El artículo estudia las formas rituales del afrontamiento religioso de la desgracia [colonial] y el sentido de rememoración familiar que implicó la devoción y padecimiento del castigo de azotes. El abordaje de la investigación se desarrolla desde el enfoque cultural de la acción simbólica y de las conductas rituales desplegadas en el tránsito y padecimiento de las crisis vitales. Desde un giro ontológico, la investigación analiza los testimonios inscritos en la documentación producida por el Tribunal de la Inquisición contra africanos procesados por el delito de blasfemia durante los siglos XVII-XVIII, proponiendo una lectura del padecimiento físico desde un sentido iniciático y simbólico de la rememoración religiosa del parentesco, la tierra natal y las potencias divinas.

Universities, local governments, and primary and secondary schools are jointly committed to building a "trinity" professional talent training quality assurance system, providing a good platform for the cultivation of physical education professionals. However, issues such as low identification with roles among entities in the "trinity" model, lack of unified organizational management, insufficient perspective-taking among entities, and conflicting work objectives have affected the effectiveness of the "trinity" model in nurturing talents. There is an urgent need to enhance communication and cooperation among entities, establish and improve the organizational management system, set up a responsibility implementation mechanism, and build a professional development community, so as to form a stable "trinity" physical education professional talent training model, promoting high-quality development of school physical education.
A Study on the Current Status of Informal Learning Among College Normal Students
Authors:   Chongqing University of Education, China, Fu Miao
Published: December 2024

Informal learning is a type of learning that contrasts with formal learning. It is characterized by autonomy, regulation, intentionality, flexibility, sociality, and diverse learning outcomes, free from time and space constraints. The current status of informal learning among normal students at local undergraduate teacher training colleges exhibits internal incompatibilities between a high level of awareness and low satisfaction with learning environments and support, a clear learning paths or methods and a strong desire for a platform to evaluate and certify learning outcomes. This study aims to stimulate learning motivation from an endogenous perspective and enhance the effectiveness of informal learning for normal students through appropriately guided external dimensions. The integration of the first, second, and third classrooms highlights the importance of practice, while the integration of explicit and implicit environments provides support and services. The concept of "micro-skills, micro-learning, micro-certification" through digital badges can be used to certify learning outcomes.

Authors:   Yibin University, China, Lu Ke
Published: December 2024

Teaching Japanese kanji from a cross-cultural perspective has become particularly important in the context of globalisation. Kanji is not only an important writing system of Japanese language, but also carries rich cultural connotations. Teaching Japanese kanji from a cross-cultural perspective is not only conducive to promoting students’ understanding and cognition of different cultures, but also able to enhance students’ interest in learning through a wide variety of teaching methods, thus achieving an improvement in the effectiveness of teaching. Therefore, this paper explores how to teach kanji effectively in order to improve students' language proficiency and cultural understanding from four strategies: contextual teaching, comparative analysis, multimedia resources and cross-cultural discussion. Through these teaching strategies, students will be able to gain a deeper understanding of the application of Chinese characters in Japanese and the cultural significance behind them, which will in turn promote the exchange and understanding of Chinese and Japanese cultures.
