Generous Attitudes and Online Participation
Authors: Fiers Floor , Shaw Aaron , Hargittai Eszter
Published: April 2021

Some of the most popular websites depend on user-generated content produced and aggregated by unpaid volunteers. Contributing in such ways constitutes a type of generous behavior, as it costs time and energy while benefiting others. This study examines the relationship between contributions to a variety of online information resources and an experimental measure of generosity, the dictator game. Results suggest that contributors to any type of online content tend to donate more in the dictator game than those who do not contribute at all. When disaggregating by type of contribution, we find that those who write reviews, upload public videos, write or answer questions, and contribute to encyclopedic collections online are more generous in the dictator game than their non-contributing counterparts. These findings suggest that generous attitudes help to explain variation in contributions to review, question-and-answer, video, and encyclopedic websites.

Pedro Sainz Rodríguez y la Compañía Iberoamericana de publicaciones
Authors: Balsinde Isabel
Published: April 2021

El archivo de Pedro Sainz Rodríguez depositado en la FUE conserva una abundante documentación sobre la Compañía Iberoamericana de Publicaciones (1924-1931), de la que fue su director literario y principal impulsor. La CIAP primó siempre lo pedagógico sobre lo lucrativo, como puede verse en sus colecciones baratas pensadas para la divulgación. No obstante, en su catálogo se incluyeron también textos de investigación dirigidos a eruditos. Los autores escribían en exclusiva para la editorial, consiguiendo estabilidad económica y amplio reconocimiento en la CIAP, a la que demostraron su apoyo en los momentos más duros. En la correspondencia conservada podemos conocer las angustias, sugerencias, enfados y propuestas de muchos de ellos. Aunque la CIAP fracasó por sus dificultades financieras, permanece como ejemplo de empresa moderna y gran emporio comercial.

Authors: Russu Corneliu
Published: April 2021

The paper deals with the evolution during a period of over 60 years of the investment policy of the European Union, pointing out the main moments that marked the steps taken towards the progressive shaping of an increasingly unitary character of this policy. The increase of the interest of foreign investors for strategic, sensitive sectors of the economy of the member countries determined, after 2017, a change in the philosophy of establishing and applying the Union's investment policy, materialized in the more precise definition of "foreign investor" and in implementing a more rigorous mechanism of control of foreign direct investment. Further on are presented the main effects of foreign investment in the Community economy, resulting from empirical studies on this topic, the conclusions reached by these studies being sometimes divergent.
Institutions, Corruption and Microfinance Viability in Developing Countries: the Case of Ghana and Nigeria
Authors: Alhassan Yahaya , Nwagbara Uzoechi
Published: April 2021

This article focuses on the role corrupt institutions (microfinance institutions) play in microfinance not being accessible for business development in Africa. It specifically sheds light on the contexts of Nigeria and Ghana to tease out the challenges and opportunities for small businesses consequent upon a culture of corruption in these countries and associated challenges for small business owners and entrepreneurs as well as microbusiness development. As well-known, in many developing countries with a high level of corruption, there is potentially a high incidence of institutional void, which presents setback and challenges for businesses to thrive. Microbusiness development relies largely on effective institutions to develop, and in situations where institutions are corrupt, these challenges are rather redoubled thus posing a threat to entrepreneurship development. Therefore, these contexts enable us to understand and interrogate the challenges facing microbusiness development, where corrupt microfinance institutions exist, as well as business opportunities if these corrupt institutions were not present. Thus this paper argues that for businesses to thrive enabling and effective institutional mechanisms are crucial, which will facilitate opportunities for microbusiness development.

Tourism development policy will pay attention to stakeholders, especially to people, who play an important role. However, in reality, when people participate in rural tourism development, they are not equipped with basic knowledge and skills in managing and serving tourists. Because the benefits between stakeholders are still not clear, the participation of people in rural tourism development is currently only passive. Active participation need to be directed from the Government and local authorities because the concept that rural tourism development is not only about creating economic benefits but also associated with conservation and preservation, together with keeping and promoting cultural - historical values in rural areas.

Authors: Ashique Hussain  , Akhtar Hussain
Published: April 2021

Religio-Political parties are an integral part of the politics of Pakistan. Theyhave played a vital role in political mobilization, be it inside or outside theparliament, both during civilian and military rule. The military rulers of thecountry have never transferred power to the civilians, until a struggle fordemocracy has been made. That has led to compromise of transition frommilitary to civilian governments. It mainly focuses on the role of Jamiat-iUlema-i-Islam- (JUI) and Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan in the revival of people’spower in the country. It also aims to see how religio-political parties work todevelop pressure on the rulers for democratic transition in Pakistan. Despitediverse sectarian and political backgrounds, how the leadership of religiopolitical parties brought political parties on one junction against dictatorship.Furthermore study explains that how religio-political parties eitherencouraged or discouraged the aspect of dynastic politics in Pakistan.Building and analyzing this argument in the dynamics of structuralfunctionalism and role theory, the organizational structure of religio-politicalparties is studied and evaluated to see connection in the role of JUI and JIPtowards democratic transition.

Published: April 2021

The small and medium enterprise sector has played a significant role in theincome and employment generation in the developed and developingeconomies. The current study is conducted to find out the potential of theSMEs to achieve the economic and social objectives. The survey data of 300SMEs indicates the wider gap between the demands for SME financing and thesupply-side. The test result p<0.05 indicates that the lack of access to capitalinvestment, finance, and support from the public sector institutions to upgradethe technology and commutation means are the major obstacles for the SME'sto scale-up their performance in the current market reforms. While the resultof the regression model (r=0.992) indicates a strong correlation between thevariables. In fact, those SME's had overcome the issues of technology,communication, dearth of functional barriers because they had the access tothe formal sources of financing. Therefore, to attain the target of 10 millionjobs and reduce unemployment in the country, the policymakers have to makenecessary arrangements to establish new financial sources and facilitate theexisting financial firms to expand their network for the advancement andmodernization of SMEs operating in the formal and informal fold of theeconomy.

Abstract. The Aptian–Albian interval is characterized by significant paleoclimatic, paleoceanographic, and paleogeographic changes, which in turn affected the distribution and evolution of marine ecosystems. Despite the importance of such studies, there have been few correlations between Aptian–Albian sections of the Tethys Sea and those of the South Atlantic Ocean. This interval, including the Aptian–Albian transition, is preserved in the deposits of the Riachuelo Formation (Sergipe–Alagoas Basin, Brazil) located in the South Atlantic Ocean; therefore, this location was chosen for drilling four new cores. The goals of this paper are as follows: (1) to explain the drilling operation carried out in the deposits of the Riachuelo Formation and the methods used; (2) to present a brief lithostratigraphic characterization of the holes and the paleomagnetic data of core SER-03; and (3) to describe the high potential of the cores recovered for additional investigation in the future. The lithostratigraphic units of the SER-01 core consist mainly of coarse- to fine-grained sandstone, shales, marls, and mudstones; the SER-02 core was excluded due to low recovery; the SER-03 core is mainly composed of fine-grained sediments (shale, marls, and packstone) and bears some ammonite shells; the lithology of core SER-04 is mainly sandstones. Magnetic susceptibility values (χlf and χhf) and frequency-dependent susceptibility (χfd) data suggest that the section is located within the Cretaceous Normal Superchron. Future studies on these cores integrating micropaleontological, paleoichnological, geochemical, stratigraphic, and paleomagnetic (e.g., relative intensity) data will allow for a better understanding of paleoceanographic and paleogeographic events related to the early evolution of the South Atlantic Ocean and how these events correlate to similar events in Tethyan sections.

Authors: Luersen Eduardo
Published: April 2021

Discute aspectos técnicos e estéticos das imagens digitais contemporâneas a partir da análise de um jogo de computador em particular, South Park: Stick of Truth (2014). A escolha por este jogo se deve ao modo como as suas imagens concentram uma série de técnicas de representação gráfica distintas, e pela maneira como nele são exploradas satiricamente determinadas características da linguagem dos jogos digitais, o que permite uma aproximação crítica das imagens, formas e processos computacionais emergentes na atual tecnocultura audiovisual. A análise compreende procedimentos de dissecação de imagens e da retórica processual dos jogos, a partir de considerações de Kilpp (2009) e Bogost (2010), respectivamente. Com estas análises, percebemos que o jogo enfatiza elementos relacionados à linguagem das mídias digitais e à sua dispersão contemporânea, o que permite retomar conceitos relativos aos processos de hibridização do audiovisual, de softwarização da cultura e do design das interfaces humano-computador, enquanto aspectos centrais às reconfigurações em curso na ecologia das mídias de hoje.

Authors: Şahin Ahmet Hikmet
Published: April 2021

Hydrosalphinx is the fallopian tubes getting filled with fluid due to their blockage. It usually occurs with obstruction of fallopian tubes after infection in women of sexually active age. The aim of this article is to draw attention to hydrosalpinx in adolescent girls because of two adolescent cases. First case; a cystic lesion of 38x51x76 mm in the right adnexal region was detected in the lower abdominal magnetic resonance imaging of a 13-year-old girl who presented with the complaint of abdominal pain and vomiting. Right tubal torsion and hydrosalpinx were detected during abdominal exploration. The tube was detorsioned and marsupialization was applied to the hydrosalpinx. Second case; a cystic lesion with dimensions of 24x12x35 cm was detected in the abdominal ultrasonography of a 16-year-old girl who presented with the complaint of abdominal pain and a palpable mass. On abdominal exploration, a right hydrosalpinx filling the entire abdomen was detected. Tubal excision was performed. Both cases have not been undergone any intraabdominal surgery previously. Hydrosalpinx is very rare in adolescent girls. Hydrosalpinx also should be considered in lower abdominal pain. Cases should be examined in terms of preventing infertility problems in future carefully, development of adhesion should be curtailed and parents should be informed in detail.

Aim: To isolate and study the antibiogram of the aerobic bacteria from pus samples.
Materials and Methods: A total of 426 pus samples received from various wards in the Microbiology department. Andhra Medical College, Visakhapatnam were processed as per standard guidelines in the laboratory. All the aerobic bacterial isolates obtained were kept for antibiogram by Kirby Bauer’s disc diffusion method as per CLSI Guidelines.
Results: Out of 426 samples 394 (92.4%) were culture positive. Among culture positive samples 90.6% were pure cultures and 9.4% were mixed isolates. Gram negative bacilli were 72.8% of the total isolates and 27.2% were Gram positive cocci. Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia were the predominant isolates (30.3% and 28.9%) followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (24%), Proteus species (9.7%) and Acinetobacter species (6.9%). Among Gram positive cocci Staphylococcus aureus (62.6%), Enterococci (20.5%) and Coagulase Negative Staphylococcus (11.2%) and Streptococci (3.7%). GNB were more sensitive to Colistin (92%), Amikacin (86%), Imipenem and Meropenem (86% and 84.4%), Piperacillin Tazobactam (84%), Gentamycin (78%), Cefaperazone Sulbactam (76.2%) and Ciprofloxacin (56%).

Authors: Habibi Nasution Muhammad Arif , Pase Aron , Nasution Melati Silvanni
Published: April 2021

Introduction: The prognosis of HIV had changed dramatically from a deadly infectious disease into a manageable infection. Initiation of ARV, especially protease inhibitor, was thought to be associated with metabolic abnormalities. Weight gain in HIV could be a positive indicator for better prognosis. However, excessive weight gain was associated with deleterious effects. Studies regarding protease inhibitor in weight gain had different results. In this study, we intend to identify association of PI therapy duration with BMI.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in Adam Malik Hospital, Medan from August to December 2019. We recruited HIV patients above 18 years old during the outpatient with at least 6-month duration of PI therapy. During visits, patients were screened for inclusion criteria and assessed for BMI. Fasting blood glucose and insulin plasma sample were taken in the morning. Data was analysed by SPSS 22.0.
Results: Thirty-five subjects fulfilled inclusion criteria, 25 of subjects were males (71.4%). Mean age of subjects was 38.85 ± 9.7 years. Data analysis presented that there were no significant differences between two groups of treatment (24.33 ± 3.3 kg/m2 vs 24.39 ± 5.0 kg/m2; p = 0.966). There were significant differences between two groups regarding fasting blood glucose level (84.4 ± 6.8 mg/dL vs 114.9 ± 53.6 mg/dL; p = 0.015) and fasting insulin level (7.28 ± 3.4 µU/mL vs 26.01 ± 23.5 µU/mL; p = 0.000).
Conclusion: BMI was not associated with duration of PI therapy in our study. Fasting blood glucose and fasting insulin were significantly higher between groups.

Sudden Diastasis of Rectus Abdominis During Labor: A Case Report
Authors: Sigdel Manisha , Fernandez Miguel A.
Published: April 2021

We present a case of a nulliparous patient with a sudden diastasis of rectus abdominis (DRA) during labor. DRA is defined in literature as a separation of 2 muscle bellies of rectus abdominis of more than 2 fingerbreadths either 4.5 cm above or below the umbilicus.1 DRA is clinically recognized; however, there is limited knowledge on the prevalence, risk factors, and complications of DRA. Here, we present a patient who had an abrupt DRA during labor with herniation of bowel anterior to the fundus with associated abdominal pain. Due to similarity in presentation as uterine rupture, this case resulted in an elective cesarean delivery. Thus, this case report highlights the need to review DRA and uterine rupture and the associated risk factors to help health care professionals make prompt diagnoses and avoid elective primary cesarean delivery in an otherwise healthy, nulliparous patient.

Increasing Importance of Global Quality Management
Authors: Schneider Oliver
Published: April 2021

Quality must be produced economically. For only if the increased yield from a quality improvement is higher than the additional quality expenditure does the quality productivity of a company increase.In this article, impact is understood as a competitive factor of quality and can be divided into two factors. These two factors are the customer benefits generated and on the other hand, the 0-error strategy in the products. This article aims to answer the following research question: "On which pillars are the generated customer benefits and, on the other hand, the flawlessness of the products based?”Several empirical market studies were consulted as market and literature research as well 15 expert interviews.The result was that if both the strategic pillar and the operational pillar and their sub-aspects are in place, then improved competitive factors are generated and created in the market environment and there are further competitive influencing factors in the market environment.
The interviewees have assessed these below to the used questionnaire:
- 88% confirmed, 10% partly confirmed and 2% not confirmed -
The explicit description and analysis of the individual elements and methods of quality control and quality cost accounting is not given in this article and will be elaborated in the author’s dissertation.The participants of expert interviews were selected by the study leader according to their professional background.Using an extensive set of 15 expert interviews, we empirically demonstrated the existence of the strategic and operational pillars. In the combination, these have a direct influence on customer perceptions and are thus a competitive factor versus competitors.These form the elements and methods of quality control and are the basis for evaluating quality with the aim of: Increasing quality with a constant reduction of costs with simultaneously increasing market acceptance.

Previously, we have demonstrated, using several experimental models, the presence of a pronounced morphogenetic activity of total RNA preparations isolated from lymphoid cells of healthy young animals, as well as lymphocytes of human peripheral blood, and the adequacy of this activity to that of the lymphocytes themselves was proved. Based on the revealed properties of such preparations, we propose to use the total RNA obtained from lymphocytes at the earliest stage of the recovery process in vaccinology as a universal adjuvant that will accelerate the induction of the reactivity of the infected person’s lymphocytes and increase the level of their activity, and therefore, enhance the body’s defense function and increase the duration of the immunity produced.

Background: neurogenic communication disorders e.g. Dysarthria, aphasia and Voice disorders impacts the quality of life of individuals. A comprehensive picture for an intense understanding of different dimensions, that affecting QOL in neurogenic communication disorder is needed. Objectives: to determine the Quality of life in patients with neurogenic communication disorders Method: The Study design was comparative Cross-sectional survey. A total of n=100 participants were included through Conventional sampling technique. The data was collected from speech therapy department of Pakistan Railway Hospital (PRH) and NESCOM hospital Islamabad. The male and females both were included in the study. The older adults with age range 50-75 years with neurogenic conditions like dysarthria, aphasia and voice disorders related to stroke, Bell’s palsy Parkinson’s disease and triatic brain injury were included in the study The quality of life was assessed through Stroke Aphasia Quality of Life questionnaire. One Way ANOVA was used for comparison between the different conditions regarding quality of life (QOL). Results: the Mean±SD of age was 61.4 + 7.9 years. A total of n=63 participant were male and remaining n-37 were female. The result of One Way ANOVA can be seen in Table 1, which shows that there no significant difference (p≥0.05) in neurogenic communication disorders regarding QOL. Conclusion: It was concluded that quality of life was compromised equally in +neurogenic communication disorders like dysarthria, aphasia and voice disorders

Introduction: The purpose of endodontic treatment is to eliminate the bacterial infection in the root canal system and allow healing of apical periodontitis. Sometimes the anatomical complexity of the root canal system makes complete removal of bacteria almost impossible even if the conventional methods of chemo-mechanical debridement are performed strictly according to the protocol. So additional methods of root canal disinfection can be applied such as photoactivated disinfection (PAD). Purpose: The aim of our study was to compare the antibacterial activity of PAD with FotoSan, and conventional endodontic therapy in the treatment of infected root canals. Materials and methods: The study involved 36 teeth of patients who are diagnosed with pulp necrosis or with the periapical chronic periodontitis and require endodontic treatment and divided into two groups of 18 teeth each. The first microbiological sample was taken by placing a sterile paper point in the root canal, after endodontic access cavity preparation. All root canals are prepared by Protaper Universal rotary instruments (Maillefer Instruments SA, Ballaigues, Switzerland). In the first group, the disinfection of the root canals was made with photoactivated disinfection with FotoSan. In the second group was performed the endodontic treatment with the standard protocol of irrigation - 2.5% sodium hypochlorite solution and 17% EDTA. After that, the root canals are dried with sterile points, and a second microbiological sample is taken. Results: In all compared pairs, there was no significantly different effect regarding the number of microorganisms. Conclusions; The disinfection with NaOCl has the strongest antimicrobial effect in this study. Second place is occupied by PAD with FotoSan. We believe that the established antimicrobial effect of PAD make the method appropriate as complementary to routine endodontic treatment.

Objective: to assess the effect of the preparation plan for hospital discharge on the self-care agency capacity and adherence to treatment in the patients with Diabetes Mellitus treated in the Erasmo Meoz University Hospital (Hospital Universitario Erasmo Meoz, HUEM) during 2019. Materials and methods: a quasi-experimental study, with pre-/post-test assessment in the study group, guided by Dorothea Orem’s theory, with a non-probabilistic sampling of 88 individuals, by convenience. It was conducted by implementing the following instruments: therapeutic conduct, disease or lesion, and scale to assess the self-care agency capacity (ASA); data analysis was performed in Microsoft Excel 2016 and SPSS, version 22.0. Parametric (Student’s t-test for paired samples) and non-parametric (Wilcoxon) statistical tests were also used, considering p-values < 0.05 as statistically significant. Results: the initial self-care agency capacity was 61.48 (low) and the final was 80.43 (fair); therapeutic adherence compliance in the initial assessment was occasionally shown (2.82) and frequently shown at the end (4.38), with both variables showing a statistically significant difference with p-values < 0.05. Conclusions: it was determined that the intervention performed had a positive effect on therapeutic adherence and the self-care agency capacity of the diabetic patients subjected to the intervention.

Objective: To understand the organization of the Health Care Network (Rede de Atenção à Saúde, RAS) from the experiences of mothers and family members in the assistance process for the diagnosis of microcephaly.

Materials and methods: A descriptive and exploratory research study with a qualitative approach, conducted with 14 mothers of children with microcephaly. For the definition of the sample, the following inclusion criteria were listed: being a mother of a child diagnosed with microcephaly due to Zika Virus, having given birth, and being a resident of the municipality of Mossoró, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. Regarding the exclusion criterion, the following was specified: mothers who did not accept to participate in the study. The population of this research was defined in 2018. Minayo’s method of thematic content analysis was employed for data analysis.

Results: The results were divided into the following categories: 1. Access to the services, exams, and professional monitoring; 2. Perception of the mothers about follow-up in the RAS. It was possible to apprehend the obstacles experienced in the RAS for the diagnosis and follow-up of children with congenital syndrome due to the Zika Virus.

Conclusions: The difficulty of operationalizing the proposed protocol for the RAS was evidenced, either due to insufficient knowledge about the syndrome, making it impossible to maintain the organizational flow established by the protocol, or to the scarcity of hard technologies that assist in the implementation of this assistance.
