Authors:   Universidad de Sonora, México, González Sánchez Ilse , Álvarez Valenzuela Ivonne Elisa
Published: September 2024

El concepto de ciudades cuidadoras comienza a resonar en la primera década del 2000, sin embargo, es en 2013 cuando se realiza la reunión anual metrópolis donde se tiene como tema principal Caring Cities, en dicho evento asistieron representantes de 42 países y 78 ciudades, entre ellas Ciudad de México, tras esta celebración comienza a popularizarse el término y su investigación en la temática urbana. Este análisis describe el contexto existente respecto al tema, ubicando las principales aportaciones de investigaciones relacionadas al urbanismo con enfoque de género, inclusión y seguridad, así como, una recapitulación de normatividad y política pública enfocada en dichos conceptos promoviendo a las ciudades cuidadoras como modelo aplicable. Un aspecto relevante es que las principales exponentes del tema han sido mujeres, esto por la estrecha relación que tienen ciudades cuidadoras con el urbanismo feminista, la movilidad urbana con perspectiva de género y las ciudades inclusivas, ya que, este modelo busca que la ciudad cuide a las personas que necesitan ser cuidadas, y del mismo modo a las que se encuentran al cuidado de ellas. Dentro de este contexto, la mayor proporción a cargo del cuidado son mujeres, por lo que es necesario promover la equidad en trabajos de cuidado y a su vez, tomar en cuenta este tema para la planeación urbana, el diseño de espacios públicos seguros e inclusivos, así como impulsar la autonomía de la población dependiente y políticas públicas para la participación de mujeres en la toma de decisiones para la ciudad.

Published: September 2024

Este artículo explica la interacción molecular en el hormigón y su impacto en las propiedades mecánicas, centrándose específicamente en la resistencia y la transferencia de calor. Se hace hincapié en el papel fundamental de las interacciones moleculares en la configuración de las características macroscópicas del hormigón, en particular su resistencia a la compresión, a la tracción y a la flexión. El hormigón, compuesto por cemento, agua, áridos y aditivos, ve su comportamiento estructural intrincadamente influenciado por estas interacciones moleculares. Se preparó una muestra de 200 kg/cm2 con y sin aditivo (obtenido de Opuntia ficus – indica). Los resultados ponen de manifiesto un notable aumento de la velocidad del pulso ultrasónico con la incorporación de aditivos. Además, hay modificaciones perceptibles en la capacidad térmica, lo que subraya el impacto tangible de las interacciones moleculares. Las representaciones micrográficas retratan vívidamente la reducción de los espacios entre los componentes dentro del medio estudiado, estableciendo una correlación con las alteraciones en la velocidad del pulso ultrasónico y las propiedades térmicas asociadas a dicha compactación. Este estudio brinda conocimiento de las propiedades que son mejoradas y que impactan a la sostenibilidad del material, mediante el empleo de materiales naturales.
Research Progress of Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Advanced Bladder Cancer
Authors: Hu Haijun , Wu Xianghui
Published: September 2024

Systemic treatment, commonly referred to as chemotherapy, is a fundamental approach for treating muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) and metastatic bladder cancer. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy has recently become a standard treatment for MIBC, significantly reducing tumor recurrence rates and improving patient outcomes. Patients may receive adjuvant chemotherapy involving various drug combinations to improve prognosis following surgery. MIBC patients who are unwilling or unable to undergo radical cystectomy and instead opt for bladder-sparing surgery may benefit from systemic chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy, wherein chemotherapy proves more impactful than radiotherapy. Over the past 30 years, cisplatin-based chemotherapy has been the main approach for treating metastatic bladder cancer. Recent advancements in the molecular understanding of bladder cancer have led to the use of targeted therapies, which have shown promising results. Immunotherapy for MIBC has only recently emerged, with clinical trial results indicating that immunotherapy offers better efficacy and fewer side effects for metastatic bladder cancer. In recent years, basic research on bladder cancer has been burgeoning, and clinical treatment methods have been improving accordingly. This article reviews the development of systemic treatment for bladder cancer.
Smuggling Plants: Memory and Accountability in the Experience of a Latest-Generation Italian Canadian
Authors: Buiani Roberta
Published: September 2024

In this paper, I reflect on my experience of making home and homeliness as a recent Canadian and on the significance that bringing a seed or a plant into an adoptive country may have for others. I ask how this gesture may be interpreted through a pluralistic, non-anthropocentric view: how can I, a relatively recent settler, acknowledge and address the consequences and the contradictions generated from the practice of seed and plant smuggling described above? How can I become more accountable for my presence in my new adoptive home, and at the same time find ways to maintain and strengthen my identity as a symbiotic being (and not as an island) in dialogue with the land, the populations, and the cultures that host me?
Dutch Disease and the Future of the GCC Economies
Authors:   Research Student Swami Ramanand Teerth Marathwada University Nanded City, Maharashtra, India., Ahmed Hassan Ramzi Abdullah
Published: September 2024

Dutch disease happens when a country's economy becomes overly reliant on the export of a single natural resource. This can have various negative implications, including the weakening of other sectors of the economy, a rise in the currency's value, and an increase in the cost of living. This research investigates the evidence for Dutch Disease in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) nations. According to the study's findings, there is some indication that Dutch Disease exists in these nations. The positive connections between gas production, raw petroleum output, and GDP suggest that increasing production of these commodities leads to economic expansion, as measured by GDP. However, the considerable negative link between the percentage of non-petroleum exports and the consumer price index shows that the nonpetroleum export industry tends to diminish as gas and petroleum output grows. The study's conclusions have a variety of ramifications for the GCC countries. For starters, it proposes that the government avoid using oil and gas earnings to fuel excessive government expenditure. That might lead to Dutch Disease and undermine the economy's nonoil sector. Second, the government should adopt initiatives to encourage non-oil exports. This might include initiatives that encourage non-oil exports or aid in diversifying the economy away from natural resources.
Taking the Right Lessons from Lenin and the Russian Revolution
Authors: Blanc Eric
Published: September 2024

Eric Blanc's article, “Taking the Right Lessons from Lenin and the Russian Revolution,” critically examines the enduring influence of Lenin and the Bolshevik Revolution on socialist movements, highlighting the challenges of applying revolutionary strategies in parliamentary contexts. Blanc argues that while Leninist parties have played significant roles in advancing working-class interests, their revolutionary approach has been less effective in advanced capitalist democracies. He emphasizes that the Russian Revolution demonstrated the potential to overthrow capitalism but warns against overgeneralizing its strategies. Blanc critiques the myth of Bolshevik exceptionalism and the rigid organizational discipline often associated with Leninism, proposing instead a more flexible and inclusive approach to building socialist movements. By analyzing the experiences of socialist parties across the Russian Empire, particularly in Finland and Latvia, Blanc illustrates the effectiveness of uniting radical and moderate socialists within broader workers' parties. He argues that a strategy rooted in democratic socialism, adaptable to varying political contexts, offers a more viable path to socialist transformation than the insurrectionary models promoted by early Leninists. Blanc concludes that the key to advancing socialism lies in scaling up working-class and socialist organization through transformative reforms and democratic engagement, rather than adhering to prescriptive revolutionary strategies.

Phosphorus poisoning as an occupational and environmental disease in wartime conditions through the recommendations of the International Labor Organization – 2022
Authors: Prodanchuk M.G. , Basanets A.V. , Kravchuk O.P. , Yastrub T.О.
Published: September 2024

Abstract. The issue of diagnosis, registration and monitoring of diseases related to phosphorus poisoning is extremely important, taking into account Russia’s use of phosphorous ammunition on the territory of Ukraine. The system of recognition and monitoring of occupational and environmentally determined diseases needs to be adapted to modern requirements of European legislation.
Aim. Analysis of the system for determining occupational phosphorus poisoning in Ukraine and its comparison with modern requirements of The International Labor Organization.
Materials and Methods. The analytical review of scientific publications is carried out using abstract databases of scientific libraries PubMed, Medline and text databases of scientific publishers Pub Med, Central, BMJ group and other VIP databases. The analysis of reporting materials of The State Labor Service of Ukraine (SLSU), methodological approaches of The International Labor Organization (ILO) is carried out. Methods of system, comparative, and content analysis are used.
Results. The results obtained in the study indicate an extremely low prevalence of toxic lesions of occupational and environmentally determined genesis in Ukraine: chemical intoxication accounts for less than 0.2% in the structure of occupational diseases, and phosphorus poisoning has not been registered in the last 20 years. Significant discrepancies were found in the system of recognition of occupational phosphorus poisoning in Ukraine in comparison with the methodological recommendations of The International Labor Organization-2022. In contrast to the instructions for the application of the list of occupational diseases (LOD) of The International Labor Organization-2022, similar documents in Ukraine do not provide a characteristic of phosphorus properties, its toxicological profile, the minimum duration of exposure that causes occupational disease, the duration of the latent period, which complicates the recognition of occupational diseases, objectification of the diagnosis, and also leads to a distortion of statistical indicators regarding occupational morbidity.
Conclusions. The recognition system of occupational phosphorus poisoning in Ukraine needs to be adapted to the European recommendations and requirements recommended by the ILO. First of all, this concerns the list of occupational diseases and instructions for its use, bringing them to the norms of international legislation will allow unifying the diagnostic system, objectifying it and establishing a system for registering occupational diseases at the proper level.

Published: September 2024

Plastics are widely used in many industries, leading to a growing plastic waste problem. To address this, a shift from a linear economy to a circular economy is required. In Bangladesh, the waste management sector predominantly relies on the informal sector, which remains underappreciated and inadequately supported. This study evaluates the environmental, economic, social, and urban development dimensions of recycling shops within the informal sector, highlighting their potential to alleviate ecological burdens, enhance energy efficiency, and generate local employment. A comprehensive methodology encompassing field surveys, environmental and economic benefit calculations, and fuzzy logic analysis are employed. The findings demonstrate that recycling shops, through a circular economy approach, substantially mitigate greenhouse gas emissions, reduce litter, save energy, and conserve landfill space. Among the 35 recycling shops examined, 22.86% were identified as low-volume recyclers, 48.57% as medium-volume recyclers, and 28.57% as high-volume recyclers, each group exerting correspondingly low, medium, and high positive impacts on the environment and society. Collectively, these shops manage 6.68 tons of PET bottle labels, reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 509.35 MTCE, prevent 202,186.9 tons of litter, save 5,728.1 m³ of landfill space, and conserve 406.8 barrels of oil monthly. Additionally, they employ 427 individuals. Expanding recycling shop operations, exploring new recycling technologies, and examining supportive policies are crucial for improving Khulna City's plastic waste management and overall sustainability.

Cocoa productivity is dependent on favourable weather variables. In Cameroon, climate change presents some phytosanitary challenges to cocoa farmers due to weed and cocoa pest problems. This paper analyzed the perceived phytosanitary impacts of climate change and the determinants of selected mitigation options in Cameroon. The data were collected using stratified random sampling from 303 farmers in Centre Cameroon. The data were analyzed with Probit regression. The results showed that cocoa farming operations were affected by climate change through weed control problems (51.48%), more incidence of black pod disease (65.02%), more incidence of malaria (68.98%), more cocoa pests (72.94%), death of cocoa trees (74.26%) and general reduction in cocoa yields (78.88%). The Probit regression results revealed that some adaptation methods were significantly influenced by perceived phytosanitary impacts of climate change such as perception of more pests, difficulties in weed control, death of cocoa trees, and black pod diseases. Other impacts such as malaria, pneumonia, lack of drinking water, inability to effective spray cocoa pod and dry the beans also showed some statistical significances with different impacts on adaptation. Cocoa farmers’ demographic characteristics such as education, gender, farming experience and primary occupation also influenced some adaptation methods. It was concluded that climate change presents significant constraints to cocoa production, and efforts to address the problem should integrate proper education on perception of the phytosanitary impacts and relevant mitigation with sensitivity on farmers’ gender, education level and the nature of primary occupation.

An experiment was carried out in the field laboratory of the Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University (BSMRAU), Gazipur during the period from October 2018 to April 2019. The experiment was set up in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) and three replications were used. The aim of the study was to assess the character association and direct and indirect effect of independent characters on green yield of 28 chilli genotypes. A comparison between genotypic and phenotypic correlation coefficients revealed that the former was higher. At both the genotypic and phenotypic levels, correlation coefficients revealed that fruit yield per plant was significantly and positively linked with fruit length, fruit diameter, individual fruit weight, number of seeds per fruit, and plant height. Individual fruit weight had the most significant positive direct impact on fruit yield, followed by the number of fruits per plant, fruit diameter, and fruit length. Therefore, these characteristics could be regarded as critical selection criteria for the enhancement of chilli yield.
