Improvement and Evaluation of the TOPCOP Taxonomy of Patient Portals: Taxonomy-Evaluation-Delphi (TED) Approach
Authors: Glöggler Michael , Ammenwerth Elske
Published: July 2021

Background

Patient portals have been introduced in many countries over the last 10 years, but many health information managers still feel they have too little knowledge of patient portals. A taxonomy can help them to better compare and select portals. This has led us to develop the TOPCOP taxonomy for classifying and comparing patient portals. However, the taxonomy has not been evaluated by users.

Objective

This study aimed to evaluate the taxonomy’s usefulness to support health information managers in comparing, classifying, defining a requirement profile for, and selecting patient portals and to improve the taxonomy where needed.

Methods

We used a modified Delphi approach. We sampled a heterogeneous panel of 13 health information managers from 3 countries using the criterion sampling strategy. We conducted 4 anonymous survey rounds with qualitative and quantitative questions. In round 1, the panelists assessed the appropriateness of each dimension, and we collected new ideas to improve the dimensions. In rounds 2 and 3, the panelists iteratively evaluated the taxonomy that was revised based on round 1. In round 4, the panelists assessed the need for a taxonomy and the appropriateness of patient engagement as a distinguishing concept. Then, they compared 2 real portals with the final taxonomy and evaluated its usefulness for comparing portals, creating an initial requirement profile, and selecting patient portals. To determine group consensus, we applied the RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method.

Results

The final taxonomy consists of 25 dimensions with 65 characteristics. Five new dimensions were added to the original taxonomy, with 8 characteristics added to already existing dimensions. Group consensus was achieved on the need for such a taxonomy to compare portals, on patient engagement as an appropriate distinguishing concept, and on the comprehensibility of the taxonomy’s form. Further, consensus was achieved on the taxonomy’s usefulness for classifying and comparing portals, assisting users in better understanding portals, creating a requirement profile, and selecting portals. This allowed us to test the usefulness of the final taxonomy with the intended users.

Conclusions

The TOPCOP taxonomy aims to support health information managers in comparing and selecting patient portals. By providing a standardized terminology to describe various aspects of patient portals independent of clinical setting or country, the taxonomy will also be useful for advancing research and evaluation of patient portals.
Investigation of parasites in the digestive tract of white leg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) cultured at coastal farms in the Mekong Delta
Authors: Dang Thi Hoang Oanh , Nguyen Thi Nhu Thuy , Vu Ngoc Ut
Published: July 2021

A total of 291 white leg shrimp samples were collected from 70 cultured ponds in Soc Trang, Bac Lieu and Ca Mau provinces in the Mekong Delta and subjected to endoparasitic detection in the digestive tract. Collected shrimps displayed unhealthy behaviors such as stop or less feeding and lethagic swimming. Pathological signs in the gastrointestinal tract include (1) empty midgut and stomach together with pale and atrophy hepatopancreas; (2) empty, little or discontinued food in the midgut; (3) slow growth and variation in sizes; and (4) white feces. The results from fresh and Giemsa stained smears methods revealed that 96.5% of sampled shrimps were infected by gregarine parasite at different developmental stages. A prevalence infection of 24.7% was recorded with Vermiform present in the hepatopancreas by fresh smear and histology. Histopathological analysis noted that 7.9% of collected shrimp samples had Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP) spores in hepatopancreas and midgut and confirmed by PCR analysis.

Published: July 2021

The aim of this study is to characterize the sulfur oxidizing bacteria (SOB) isolates from the sediments of extensive shrimp ponds for recommending the use of this group for water quality management in aquaculture. Sediment samples were collected from 12 extensive shrimp ponds located in Tra Vinh, Soc Trang, Bac Lieu, and Ca Mau provinces. To screen the potential sulfur oxidizing bacteria, medium was amended with sodium thiosulfate, and the sulfate ion production ability and sulfur oxidase enzyme activity of the isolates were measured spectrophotometrically. Results showed that 30 isolates grew on the thiosulfate agar medium. Among these, only five isolates reduced the pH of the growth medium and showed high sulfur oxidase activity and production of sulfate ion when isolates were inoculated with thiosulfate as a substrate. Physiological and biochemical tests indicated that five selected isolates were Gram negative, short rod, non-motile, non-spore forming, negative for oxidase reaction, and positive for catalase reaction. The isolates SOBTB1.1 and SOBTB6.2 showed the significantly higher sulfur oxidase activity and production of sulfate ion compared to other isolates. SOBTB6.2 isolate produced sulfate ion and exhibited higher sulfur oxidase activity at pH4-5, followed by pH6-7. It is, therefore, suggested that the SOBTB 1.1 and SOBTB6.2 could be promising sulfur oxidizers for further research and uses in aquaculture.
Adoption of TBLT at a primary school in Vietnam: A case study
Authors: Bui Le Diem Trang
Published: July 2021

This case study provides an account of how a Vietnamese primary school teacher carried out the task-based versions of the presentation, practice and production (PPP) speaking lessons in an authentic primary school classroom. Data were collected from digital recordings of the lessons, semi-structured interviews, and field notes. Detailed descriptions were made of each of the phases of the videoed lesson and then compared with the field notes. The interview data were analysed manually following an inductive approach to data analysis. The results indicated that the teacher and her students successfully carried out the two redesigned PPP speaking lessons in her normally scheduled classroom. The results point to the feasibility of redesigning the PPP lessons to reflect task-based language teaching (TBLT) principles and of implementing the task-based versions of the PPP speaking lessons in real classrooms.
Synchronization in complete networks of reaction-diffusion equations of FitzHugh-Nagumo type with nonlinear coupling
Authors: Phan Van Long Em
Published: July 2021

The synchronization in complete network consisting of  nodes is studied in this paper. Each node is connected to all other ones by nonlinear coupling and is represented by a reaction-diffusion system of FitzHugh-Nagumo type which can be obtained by simplifying the famous Hodgkin-Huxley model. From this complete network, the sufficient condition on the coupling strength to achieve the synchronization is found. The result shows that the networks with bigger in-degrees of nodes synchronize more easily. The paper also presents the numerical simulations for theoretical result and shows a compromise between the theoretical and numerical results.

Authors: Truong Minh Ut , Dao Thi Tu Uyen , Tu Thanh Dung
Published: July 2021

The study was conducted to determine the antibacterial activity of three herbal extracts: guava (Psidium guajava), leafflower (Phyllanthus urinaria L), beach daisy (Wedelia biflora (L.) DC ) against Vibrio spp. isolated from white feces syndrome infected shrimp in some provinces in the Mekong Delta. The antibacterial activity of the three herbal extracts was evaluated by the well diffusion method, Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC). The results indicated that there were 102 isolates in total of 378 shrimp samples which were clarified into 7 groups. Among these group, Vibrio alginolyticus group were the most abundant species with the percentage of 50 %, followed by Vibrio cholerae group with the percentage of 17.7%. The herbal extracts of P. guajava and P. urinaria L showed a broad - spectrum antibacterial activity against ten isolates which were selected for MIC and MBC test. The extract of P. urinaria L had the strongest antibacterial activity against V. harveyi CM3HPA2 and V. alginolyticus CM3IB2 (MIC of 0.2 mg/ml, MBC of 0.39 mg/ml). The obtained results indicated that the herbal extract of P. urinaria L will be a good candidate for reducing opportunistic pathogens Vibrio spp. abundant in gastrointestinal tract of shrimp.
Evaluation of the purification process of phosvitin extracted from chicken egg yolk using liquid chromatography
Authors: Tran Khoa Nguyen , Vo Van Song Toan
Published: July 2021

Phosvitin from chicken egg yolk, known as a phosphoglycoprotein, owns a very strong metal chelating property due to its polyanionic character. This study aimed to evaluate the factors affecting the purification process and suitable conditions to increase phosvitin’s purity. Phosvitin was separated from yolk granules by using 10% of NaCl solution in 0.05 M NaOH solution and heat treatment which removes lipoprotein from the extracted solution. The highest phosphorus content (58.14 mg) and phosphorus recovery rate (32.4%) were obtained at thermal treatment of 30℃ for 30 minutes. In addition, phosvitin was purified using anion-exchange chromatography (AEC) and gel-filtration chromatography (GFC). The fraction 1 (F1) obtained from AEC using UNO-Sphere Q at pH 8 had the recovery rate of phosvitin approximately 72.73%. Furthermore, fraction F1 was separated on GFC to obtain two main sub-fractions (F1 and F2). Sub-fraction F1 from gel filtration was composed mostly of β-phosvitin with a high recovery rate (81.93%) while F2 was dominant with α-phosvitin in a lower phosvitin recovery rate (16.89%). These findings will provide useful information for further researches on other properties of phosvitin so that it can be applied widely in human needs.

Published: July 2021

Trends within universities and scholarly publishers are converging to develop tools and services to maximize the societal impacts of research. The open research agenda underpins drives to improve accessibility to knowledge, while the academic community is increasingly tasked to generate “impact” on society. With obvious synergies between these agendas, it is increasingly important for collaboration across the research ecosystem to build on this complementarity. This article reflects on, and conjects a future for, academic-publisher collaborations to connect these agendas.
Les tendances au sein des universités et des éditeurs savants convergent pour développer des outils et des services permettant de maximiser les impacts sociétaux de la recherche. L’agenda de la recherche de libre accès sous-tend les efforts visant à améliorer l’accessibilité aux connaissances, tandis que la communauté universitaire est de plus en plus chargée de générer un « impact » sur la société. Compte tenu des synergies évidentes entre ces agendas, il est de plus en plus important que la collaboration au sein de l’écosystème de la recherche s’appuie sur cette complémentarité. Cet article est le fruit d’une réflexion et d’une conjecture sur l’avenir des collaborations entre les universités et les éditeurs afin de relier ces agendas. Il est rédigé conjointement par un gestionnaire de l’impact de la recherche et un chercheur universitaire (Bayley), un praticien de la mobilisation des connaissances universitaire (Phipps) et des collègues d’Emerald Publishing (Roche et Lodge).
Post-Colonial Historical Practices
Authors: Nurse Andrew
Published: July 2021

This article suggests that historical practice in Canada is in the process of changing as a result of national and international developments, such as Black Lives Matter, Rhodes Must Fall, and the final report and recommendations of the Canadian Truth and Reconciliation Commission. A key part of this process has been the reconsideration of Canadian narrative frameworks, but it also involves debates surrounding commemorative practices and other innovations in exhibition and display. This shift creates an opportunity to revisit the moral nature of historical narratives, Indigenous conceptions of the importance of the past, the authority of professional historians, and the place of community-engaged historical research.
Cet article suggère que les pratiques historiques au Canada sont en train de changer sous l’effet de développements nationaux et internationaux tels que Black Lives Matter, Rhodes Must Fall, et le rapport final et les recommandations de la Commission de vérité et réconciliation du Canada. La reconsidération de cadres narratifs canadiens est une partie clé de ce processus, lequel comporte en outre des débats sur les pratiques commémoratives et sur d’autres innovations relatives aux expositions et installations. Ce changement présente l’occasion de réexaminer la nature morale des narrations historiques, les conceptions autochtones sur l’importance du passé, l’autorité des historiens professionnels, et la place d’une recherche historique qui soit engagée au niveau communautaire.

Breast cancer is the most common disease in females and the major cause of mortality and morbidity. In reality, 1.67 million new cases of breast cancer are diagnosed around the world, with 458,000 deaths per year. Approximately 89 percent of breast cancer survivors live for a minimum of five years after treatment, but adverse effects can last for months or years after surgery. The most common side effects of the upper limb are pain and joint dysfunction, which is described as having a prevalence range of 12 percent to 51 percent for pain and 1.5 percent to 50 percent for joint dysfunction.(1) The mainstay in primary breast cancer care is surgery.(2) To assess the impact of an early recovery program on shoulder mobility, functional ability, postoperative complications such as seroma, hematoma, and wound infection in patients who had undergone a modified radical mastectomy (MRM)and to assess the impact of variables in clinical practice (e.g., age, education, BMI, previous shoulder problems, number of dissected axillary lymph nodes and metastatic lymph nodes, use of postoperative radiotherapy (RT) and chemotherapy on shoulder mobility, functional ability, and lymphedema development), and lymphedema.(3) Any of these symptoms can result in permanent arm dysfunction. Shoulder exercises are widely prescribed to minimize the impairment of mobility and strength as well as to prevent lymphedema. A variety in clinical services has been established which help mostly in improvement of shoulder range of motion while also reducing the risk of secondary lymphedema. This is the case of a 32-year-old female, resident of Dastur Nagar, Amravati. Housewife by occupation. She has swelling in her right breast so she visited a private hospital in Amravati. There she detected a lump in her right breast and the doctor recommended further treatment to visit AVBRH Hospital, Sawangi Meghe, and Wardha. She underwent a modified radical mastectomy. Patients that have had a mastectomy are always at the possibility of experiencing shoulder pain and adhesive capsulitis and require preventative measures.

Published: July 2021

Aortic pseudocoarctation is a rare congenital aortic anomaly that causes
elongation, stenosis and kinking of the aorta at the isthmus level.
Although aortic coarctation and pseudocoarctation share a similar
clinical spectrum, pseudocoarctation rarely results in a significant
gradient in descending aorta and haemodynamic consequence. Therefore,
it’s critical to differentiate in coarctation. All imaging modalities
but especially cardiac CT angiography and catheterization are very
important in the differential diagnosis. Our case highlighted to
differences between aortic pseudocoarctation and coarctation, with other
cardiac anomalies accompanying pseudocoarctation. And also the
importance of cardiac imaging in the differential diagnosis of
pseudocoarctation was emphasized.
Ekonomiczny aspekt funkcjonowania zakładu rzemieślniczego w Krakowie pod koniec XVI i w pierwszej połowie XVII wieku na przykładzie przedsiębiorstwa piwowarsko-karczmarskiego
Authors: Dryja Sławomir
Published: July 2021

Zagadnienia przedstawione w tekście dotyczą analizy kosztów produkcji piwowarskiej w Krakowie u schyłku XVI w. na podstawie Obrachowania kosztu waru piwa dołączonego do taksy wojewodzińskiej wydanej w 1593 r. Podzielono je na cztery zasadnicze grupy: surowce i materiały, robociznę, podatki i opłaty oraz czynsz. Ustalono, że największy wpływ na cenę trunku miały surowce (pszenica, chmiel, drewno do opalania pieców), a pozostałe składniki miały znaczenie marginalne. W artykule przeanalizowano też funkcjonowanie rynku w obliczu gwałtownych fluktuacji cen surowców. Wskazano na prawdopodobne przestrzeganie cen zawartych w taksach, rekompensowanie drożejących surowców poprzez zaniżanie jakości piwa, a tym samym na negatywną rolę mechanizmu regulacji cen w pierwszej połowie XVII w.

Antropologia outras e estudos feministas:
Authors: Machado Tadeu Lopes
Published: July 2021

O projeto moderno de ciência se pauta na neutralidade para a produção do conhecimento. O feminismo ocidental enquanto teoria é um dos aportes que passa a contestar essa condição, elaborando um discurso político conjugado com o teórico. Dessa forma, o presente artigo dialoga com esse entendimento, pois além de ser epistemológico a ciência também é posicionamento político. No entanto, o trabalho também se baliza sob o entendimento de que há outras categorias de análises que dão conta de outras realidades dos feminismos e estudos de gênero. Aqui apontamos a decolonialidade como proposta de questionamento, ou superação dos limites dos paradigmas epistemológicos ocidentais em que o próprio feminismo eurocentrado se firmou. Dessa forma, a objetivo central do artigo se ancora na possiblidade de fortalecimento do discurso heterogêneo, periférico, anti-normativo, não-biologizante, não dicotômico e não essencialista sobre o gênero, capaz de confrontar para desconstruir qualificadamente as estruturas normativas imperialistas em que os estudos ocidentais se pautaram. O artigo foi construído a partir da análise de uma parte da bibliografia disponibilizada na disciplina “Antropologias Outras”, cursada no ano de 2018, bem como dos debates estabelecidos com os/as colegas naquele período em sala de aula.
Влияние медиа на формирование паттернов поведения современной молодежи
Authors: Давыдова Мария А.
Published: July 2021

В статье рассматриваются данные, полученные автором в результате исследования, проведенного в г. Ростов-на-Дону среди представителей студенческой молодежи. Во введении приводятся данные о растущей медиатизации современного общества. Описываются причины масштабирования влияния медиа на социализацию молодежи. При этом, на сегодняшний день социальные сети не заявляют о воспитательной функции и, соответственно, не декларируют своего участия в процессе формирования стратегий и паттернов поведения современного молодого человека. В разделе Методы описываются эмпирические методы, используемые в проведенном исследовании. Новизна исследования заключается в сопоставлении данных, полученных в результате использования количественных методов (было обработано 500 анкет), которые дали возможность выявить показатели регулярности и частоты использования медиа. Проведён анализ бесед с 40 информантами в технике «глубинного интервью», в которых выявлялся смысл, который они вкладывают в оценку стратегий, преподносимых средствами массовой коммуникации как успешные и требующие подражания. В разделе Результаты описываются полученные данные, приводятся количественные и качественные показатели.  Отмечается, что исследование помогло выявить влияние современных масс-медиа на коммуникативные практики и их смыслы в молодежном сегменте.  В Обсуждении результатов анализируются полученные выводы, согласно которым социализирующая функция медиа сегодня оказывает неоднозначное влияние. С одной стороны, выполняя информационную функцию, медиа обеспечивает для молодого человека возможность адаптироваться в современном мире, разобраться в актуальных тенденциях. С другой стороны, именно посредством медиа формируется страх будущего и усиливаются индивидуалистические ценности. Раздел содержит выводы, которые демонстрируют ориентацию медиасферы на отказ от традиционных нравственных паттернов поведения, возможность достижения успеха без трудозатрат, поверхностные, порой бессмысленные коммуникации, отношения со сверстниками, не требующие долговременных стратегий.

Published: July 2021

Honey that has a moisture content above 22% should be done moisture reduction process. reduction of water content is done so that honey does not undergo fermentation and has a longer shelf life. One of the ways that can be used to reduce water content in honey is evaporation. Evaporation is of converting some of the water content in the material into steam by utilizing temperatures close to the boiling point of water. However, the minor content of honey, such as the diastase enzyme, is very sensitive to high temperatures. Therefore, vacuum evaporation is used so that the process uses a lower temperature to minimize the damage to the diastase enzyme. The research method was carried out in 3 stages, namely sampling, evaporation process, and sample testing. The results of this study indicate that the process of vacuum evaporation and vacuum cooling can change the proximate content of cassava honey to comply with SNI.

The Edible Woman: A Perspective of Women
Authors: Dolly Moirangthem
Published: July 2021

In many respects, The Edible Woman was created during a ‘whirlwind change’. Atwood successfully links together ‘ideas of marriage’ and ‘consumerism’ as related to the ideas and the perceptions of the self. In this novel, Atwood produces a world centred around a young woman, Marian MacAlpin, who is thrust into the role of fiancé and the traditional position. The Edible Woman is successful because it pulls us into Marian’s world and makes us a part of it. Things at first appear to be crystal and real. The moments of her daily life are presented in ways that a reader can relate to. Marian’s life seems acceptable and worthwhile. This paper highlights a perspective of women through Marian, the protagonist of Atwood’s The Edible Woman.

Collagen is a structural protein found naturally in high amounts in poultry skin and bones. Gelatin is obtained by a partial hydrolysis of collagen under controlled conditions. It is a pure protein with many functional and technological properties such as gelation, thickening, film-forming and emulsification. Besides skin and bones, mechanically deboned meat (MDM) residues are considered good sources of collagen as well. This study aimed to extract collagen and gelatin from poultry skin and MDM residues of neck, shinbone, breastbone, wingtip, shanks, upper/lower backbone and their mixture through pre-treatment (using with dilute alkali and acid), demineralization, degreasing and thermal extraction processes, and evaluate their properties comparatively. Based on Kjeldahl analysis, the protein content of poultry skin was about 15% and that of the MDM residues varied between 15-21% before the extraction process. The SDS-PAGE profiles of the extracted collagen in skin and MDM residues comprised γ, β, α, and sub-α chain protein units. Collagen solution of the upper backbone and mixed MDM residues had the highest protein content with 11.98 mg/mL and 11.33 mg/mL, respectively. The extraction yield of collagen and gelatin significantly differred (p˂0.05) within the range between 1.32 and 2.16%, and 1.03 and 1.89%, respectively. The viscosity of collagen/gelatin solutions decreased with an increase in shear rate and gelatin obtained from mix MDM residues indicated higher viscosity than that of skin. Results of this study showed successful recovery of collagen and gelatin from poultry processing by-products and residues, which could contribute to the production of high value-added alternative sources for various applications.

Relevant issues of legal regulation of the digital revolution
Authors: Ryzhkova Ekaterina Aleksandrovna , Ryzhkova Evgeniya Konstantinovna
Published: July 2021

The advancement of information technologies, change of expectations and consumer habits, as well as transformation of the social, economic, and political situation in the world entailed infiltration of digital technologies into all spheres of social life. Due to the need for the development of adequate legal regulation of relations arising in the digital sphere, determination of the limits and capabilities of artificial intelligence used for solution of versatile issues, the author highlights the priority direction for the development of law and its theoretical framework and practical aspects in the technologically advanced countries of the world. The progress of information technologies contributed to the development of law, having established its new institution of digital law. However, the essence of digital law is currently being reduced to regulating the new digital form of previous relations. The revolutionary achievement of digital law became the institution of artificial intelligence. The novelty of this research is lies in the statement that the achievements of digital technologies and transformations caused by them have received the name of the “third industrial revolution”, and usually, the revolutionary achievements find their legislative consolidation. Development and implementation of new technologies require their thorough regulation, namely with regards to formulation of concepts, criteria, and the subject matter. The development of the Institution of artificial intelligence actualizes the question of the parties to digital relations. Thus, the issues united by the concept of “digital law” do not fully reflect its essence and do not foresee the upcoming changes.
Artistic image of a woman in the culture of Azerbaijan
Authors: Kerimli Nurlana Imayat Gyzy
Published: July 2021

The subject of this research is the image of the Azerbaijani woman. The centuries-long history has explored the female images in artistic culture, where female characters are in the limelight. Since the ancient times, Azerbaijani women have been actively engaged in social governance, culture, science, and art; felt the beauty of nature raising it to the level of the phenomenon of cultural life. The article also describes the current state, obstacles, problems, and opportunities of Azerbaijani women in folk art. The Turkic women do not blindly follow the principles of the Sharia, but rather guided by the moral principles of Islam, which broadens their cultural mindset. It is concluded that the female image in evolution of the artistic culture of Azerbaijan plays a crucial role in upbringing and spiritual enrichment of the world. The history of the Turkic culture has created the female images that refute the idea that women's creativity is the second grade art. In folklore, which is the product of artistic thinking and mythological consciousness of the Turkic people, women are depicted with the greatest regard. Female image is illustrated in various forms of art. One of the core indicators of the improvement of spirituality and artistic-aesthetic worldview of the Turkic people is the examples of anthropomorphic plastic art depicting female image in the ancient national artistic thought.
Catholic Magisterium on euthanasia: from Pope Pius XII to Pope Francis
Authors: Abramov Alexander
Published: July 2021

The subject of this research is the so-called Magisterium of the Popes on the topic of euthanasia, i.e. a set of formal texts that have high authority and normativity in the Roman Catholic Church. The history of development of the Vatican doctrine in this field stretches from 1950s, undergoing substantial changes. The author traces the evolution of philosophical and religious-ethical grounds of the views of the Holy See on euthanasia and assisted suicide. The goal of this article consists in determination of continuity of the concept of Magisterium, as well as the level of adaptability to the challenges of time. The author reveals the moral concepts and categorical apparatus that are essential for the formation of the magisterial doctrine in its modern form. Within the Russian research practice, the materials of the Catholic Magisterium has not previously become the subject of a separate in-depth examination as special group of philosophical-religious texts. The set of papal doctrinal documents dedicated to euthanasia is studied in the chronological aspect, as well as in light of the development of the socio-philosophical value system of Catholicism. The article employs virtually all documents that are of key importance for studying the establishment of the Roman doctrine of euthanasia. Many text, namely of the last two decades, are introduced into the Russian-language scientific discourse for the first time. The conclusion is made that the social transformations become a serious challenge for the conceptual core of the Magisterium, and force the Vatican theology to reason out the renewed system of argumentation in the post-secular and anti-clerical space of the Western society.
Jahwe: Bóg gniewu czy miłosierdzia?
Authors: Jasiński OFM Andrzej Sebastian
Published: July 2021

Starotestamentowa wiedza o Bogu ma wiele aspektów. W teologicznych poglądach biblijnych widoczne są zarówno koncepcje oryginalne, jak i pewne zapożyczenia zaczerpnięte z ówczesnej literatury bliskowschodniej. Wywarły one wpływ na tekstowe wyrażenia odnoszące się do Jehowy. Mimo tych literackich zależności, w Starym Testamencie istnieje jednorodne przesłanie o Bogu. Na różne sposoby Biblia ukazuje aktywną obecność Boga wśród narodu wybranego. Są teksty przedstawiające gniew Boży lub Boga wojny. Inne opisują Jehowę jako kochającego Ojca, troszczącego się o wszystkich ludzi, a nie tylko o Izraelitów. Nie ma jednak w tych obrazach sprzeczności, ponieważ różnorodność przedstawień Boga w Biblii nie wynika z jakiejś niestałości w postępowaniu Jahwe wobec ludzi, ale z różnych etapów objawienia Bożego, które w dłuższym okresie doprowadziło wierzących do spotkania z jedynym Bogiem: Bogiem miłości.
Bóg Ojciec a dzieło zbawienia w Jezusie Chrystusie według Listu do Galatów
Authors: Jasiński OFM Andrzej Sebastian
Published: July 2021

W NT Bóg został objawiony przez Jezusa Chrystusa przede wszystkim jako Ojciec. Św. Paweł w swojej misji apostolskiej ogłasza dzieło zbawienia dokonane przez Boga Ojca w Chrystusie, najważniejszy tekst mówiący o tej rzeczywistości znajduje się w Ga 4,4-5. Z tekstu tego wynika, że zamysł Boży zawiera dwa elementy: Bóg zbliża się do stworzenia (człowieka) i człowiek również zbliża się do Boga w Chrystusie. Pełnia czasu nie jest więc tylko (Ga 4,4) aktem Boga z powodu grzechu, ale oznacza konsekwentne działanie Boga, który przewidział pełnię czasu jako najważniejszy i ostateczny moment w historii stworzenia.W świetle tej refleksji możemy lepiej zrozumieć, co oznacza wola Boża (Ga 1,4). Wola ta nie jest oczywiście ograniczona czasem ani przestrzenią, jest aktem wiecznym, istniejącym przed stworzeniem świata. Jedyną właściwą postawą wobec tej woli jest posłuszeństwo. Pełnia posłuszeństwa znajduje się w relacji Jezus — Bóg Ojciec.Chrystus wypełnił wolę Boga Ojca (ukrzyżowany za grzechy). To wydarzenie Jezusa przynosi zmianę kondycji człowieka, który znajdował się w niewoli ὁ αἰῶν πονηρός. W Chrystusie zmartwychwstałym natomiast wierzący został wybawiony z niewoli i teraz dostępuje udziału w eonie nowego αἰῶν (Ga l,l).
Obcy w Starym Testamencie
Authors: Jasiński OFM Andrzej Sebastian
Published: July 2021

Stary Testament świadczy o tym, że Izrael żył wśród obcych. Tak było nie tylko w czasach przedkrólewskich (Abraham, Mojżesz), ale także po wygnaniu (Ezdrasz, Nehemiasz). Stosunek do innych ludów był zdeterminowany przez współistnienie i wspólnotę, tak jak wymagała tego dana sytuacja. Wchodziły one w sferę oceny teologicznej, gdy wpływały na wiarę Izraela w jego Boga Jahwe. Inny jest stosunek do pojedynczego przybysza, który jest pierwszą i konkretną troską Izraelity, a inny do obcych ludów.

Objetivo: Avaliar as terapêuticas utilizadas na prevenção e/ou tratamento de lesão por pressão, com a finalidade de analisar sua ocorrência, bem como, descrever medidas preventivas e tratamentos eficazes. Métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura realizada nas bases de dados: LILACS, MEDLINE, BVS, BDENF. Foram selecionados 16 artigos no período de 2010 a 2020 em português, inglês e espanhol que tratavam sobre prevenção e terapêutica de lesão por pressão. Resultados: Devido ao baixo custo e a melhor qualidade de vida do paciente as medidas preventivas: uso de escalas de risco, protocolos de tratamento e educação permanente devem ser adotadas. Todavia, o portador de lesão por pressão pode ter acesso a diferentes técnicas, curativos e coberturas. Tais procedimentos deverão ser realizados por profissionais devidamente treinados, considerando a avaliação clínica da lesão e a indicação do produto e/ou técnica a ser utilizada. Considerações finais: Apesar dos avanços tecnológicos são necessários maiores investimentos por partes dos gestores dos serviços de saúde e um maior comprometimento dos membros da equipe multiprofissional para utilizarem os recursos já conhecidos e eficazes para a prevenção e tratamento destas lesões a fim de preservar e/ou restabelecer a saúde do indivíduo que precisa de cuidados.
