LA CRISIS ECONÓMICA Y LA FLEXIBILIZACION DE LOS DERECHOS LABORALES EN EL PERÚ
Authors: Gonzales Pichihua Markoni
Published: December 2020

Recientemente han eclosionado diferentes movimientos sociales de reivindicación de los derechos laborales en el mundo, como el movimiento “Occupy London”, el movimiento “democracia real ya”, a causa de una nueva crisis económica. Entonces, es necesario estudiar las relaciones intrínsecas entre la estructura económica (la crisis económica) y la supraestructura político-jurídica (la flexibilización de los derechos laborales).

En el presente artículo explicaremos las relaciones internas entre estos factores. Analizaremos diferentes hipótesis sobre la eliminación de la flexibilización de los derechos laborales para la vigencia plena de los derechos, teniendo en cuenta las fases del ciclo económico, y la posibilidad de eliminar la flexibilización de los derechos laborales en la sociedad capitalista.

Large-scale sensitivities of groundwater and surface water to
groundwater withdrawal
Authors: Bierkens Marc F. P. , Sutanudjaja Edwin H. , Wanders Niko
Published: December 2020

Abstract. Increasing population, economic growth and changes in diet have dramatically increased the demand for food and water over the last decades. To meet increasing demands, irrigated agriculture has expanded into semi-arid areas with limited precipitation and surface water availability. This has greatly intensified the dependence of irrigated crops on groundwater withdrawal and caused a steady increase of non-renewable groundwater use, i.e. groundwater taken out of aquifer storage that will not be replenished in human time scales. One of the effects of groundwater pumping is the reduction in streamflow through capture of groundwater recharge, with detrimental effects on aquatic ecosystems. The degree to which groundwater withdrawal affects streamflow or groundwater storage depends on the nature of the groundwater-surface water interaction (GWSI). So far, analytical solutions that have been derived to calculate the impact of groundwater on streamflow depletion involve single wells and streams and do not allow the GWSI to shift from connected to disconnected, i.e. from a situation with two-way interaction to one with a one-way interaction between groundwater and surface water. Including this shift and also analyse the effects of many wells, requires numerical groundwater models that are expensive to setup. Here, we introduce a simple conceptual analytical framework that allows to estimate to what extent groundwater withdrawal affects groundwater heads and streamflow. It allows for a shift in GWSI, calculates at which critical withdrawal rate such a shift is expected and when it is likely to occur after withdrawal commences. It also provides estimates of streamflow depletion and which part of the groundwater withdrawal comes out of groundwater storage and which parts from a reduction in streamflow. After a local sensitivity analysis, the framework is used to provide global maps of critical withdrawal rates and timing, the areas where current withdrawal exceeds critical limits, and maps of groundwater depletion and streamflow depletion rates that result from groundwater withdrawal. The resulting global depletion rates are similar to those obtained from global hydrological models and satellites. The analytical framework is particularly useful for performing first-order sensitivity studies and for supporting hydroeconomic models that require simple relationships between groundwater withdrawal rates and the evolution of pumping costs and environmental externalities.

Abstract. We report measurements of electron-spin-echo envelope modulation (ESEEM) performed at millikelvin temperatures in a custom-built high-sensitivity spectrometer based on superconducting micro-resonators. The high quality factor and small mode volume (down to 0.2 pL) of the resonator allow us to probe a small number of spins, down to 5×102. We measure two-pulse ESEEM on two systems: erbium ions coupled to 183W nuclei in a natural-abundance CaWO4 crystal and bismuth donors coupled to residual 29Si nuclei in a silicon substrate that was isotopically enriched in the 28Si isotope. We also measure three- and five-pulse ESEEM for the bismuth donors in silicon. Quantitative agreement is obtained for both the hyperfine coupling strength of proximal nuclei and the nuclear-spin concentration.
Dynamic maps of human exposure to floods based on mobile phone data
Authors: Balistrocchi Matteo , Metulini Rodolfo , Carpita Maurizio , Ranzi Roberto
Published: December 2020

Abstract. Floods are acknowledged as one of the most serious
threats to people's lives and properties worldwide. To mitigate the flood
risk, it is possible to act separately on its components: hazard,
vulnerability, exposure. Emergency management plans can actually provide
effective non-structural practices to decrease both human exposure and
vulnerability. Crowding maps depending on characteristic time patterns,
herein referred to as dynamic exposure maps, represent a valuable tool to
enhance the flood risk management plans. In this paper, the suitability of
mobile phone data to derive crowding maps is discussed. A test case is
provided by a strongly urbanized area subject to frequent flooding located
on the western outskirts of Brescia (northern Italy). Characteristic
exposure spatiotemporal patterns and their uncertainties were detected
with regard to land cover and calendar period. This novel methodology still
deserves verification during real-world flood episodes, even though it
appears to be more reliable than crowdsourcing strategies, and seems to have
potential to better address real-time rescues and relief supplies.
Online Game Addiction and the Level of Depression Among Adolescents in Manila, Philippines
Authors: Labana Ryan V. , Hadjisaid Jehan L. , Imperial Adrian R. , Jumawid Kyeth Elmerson , Lupague Marc Jayson M. , Malicdem Daniel C.
Published: December 2020

Introduction: World Health Organization recognizes online game addiction as a mental health condition. The rise of excessive online gaming is emerging in the Philippines, with 29.9 million gamers recorded in the country. The incidence of depression is also increasing in the country. The current correlational analysis evaluated the association between online game addiction and depression in Filipino adolescents. Methods: A paper-and-pencil self-administered questionnaire assessing depression and online game addiction was distributed from August to November, 2018. The questionnaire included socio-demographic profiles of the respondents, and the 14-item Video Game Addiction Test (VAT) (Cronbach's α=0.91) and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (Cronbach's α=0.88) to determine levels of online game addiction and depression, respectively. Multiple regression analyses were used to test the association between depression and online game addiction. Results: Three hundred adolescents (59% males, 41% females) participated in the study. Fifty-three out of 300 respondents (12.0% males, 5.7% females) had high level of online game addiction as reflected in their high VAT scores. In this study, 37 respondents (6.7% males, 5.7% females) had moderately severe depression and 6 (2.0%) females had severe depression. Online game addiction was positively correlated with depression in this study (r=0.31; p<0.001). When multiple regression analysis was computed, depression was found to be a predictor of online game addiction (Coefficient=0.0121; 95% CI-8.1924 - 0.0242; p=0.05). Conclusion: Depression, as associated with online game addiction, is a serious threat that needs to be addressed. High level of online game addiction, as positively correlated to the rate of depression among adolescents in Manila, could potentially be attributed to the booming internet industry and lack of suffiicent mental health interventions in the country. Recommended interventions include strengthening depression management among adolescents and improving mental health services for this vulnerable population groups in schools and within the communities.

Published: December 2020

In this retrospective study we sought to determine the outcome of pregnancies associated with intrauterine contraceptive devices. Medical records of2000 women, who used IUCD, were reviewed in detail. All IUCDs were inserted either post menstrual, post delivery or post miscarriage. 1196 (60%) IUCDs were inserted by doctors and the remaining 804 (40%) by midwives. The cohort was divided to four groups on the basis of their age. There were 300, 950, 300 and 450 women in 18-22,23-27,28-32 and 33-37 years groups respectively. They were also divided to three groups on the basis of their parity with 300 Para 1 women, 1100 Para 2-4 women and 600 Para 5 or more. 37 (1.85%) unintended pregnancies occurred, including 35 intrauterine pregnancy and 2 ectopic pregnancies. 9 (3%) of these pregnancies occurred in 18-22 year group, 16 (1.68%) in 23-27 age group, 8 (2.67%) in 28-32 age group and 4 (0.89%) in 33-37 age group (Fig. 1). 19 (1.59%) of the pregnancies occurred in women whose IUCDs were inserted by medical staff and 18 (1.51%) in those whose IUCDs were inserted by midwives. The outcome of intrauterine pregnancies included 19 (51%) term pregnancies, 9 (24%) miscarriages, no septic abortions, 7 (19%) Preterm labour including 2, 26-28 weeks and 5 29-32 weeks. No puerperal sepsis or congenital abnormalities were reported (Fig. 2).

Published: December 2020

Objective: This is the first study to evaluate the time of reactivation of tuberculosis (TB) in the expatriates after the application of a screening program in 1984.

Method: Follow up analysis of expatriates who arrived in the State of Qatar in 1993. The number of expatriates, as well as the date of possible death and deportation was identified from the medical commission registry and the State of Qatar Central Statistical Organization. The rate of notification was obtained from the tuberculosis treatment unit registry.

Results: There were 32,134 applicants of which 23,842 (74.2%) were from the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. The rest were from different parts of the world. Males account for 64.4% of the applicants. On arrival 669 (2.08%) applicants were found to be unfit, of which 67 (0.21%) were unfit due to tuberculosis and the rest for reasons other than tuberculosis. Active tuberculosis was found in 55 (0.17%). Tuberculosis notification rate declined from 0.17% on arrival to 0.03% in the first twelve months. This was followed by an increase to a mean of 0.05% for the next two years, then decreased to a mean of 0.025% over the next three years.

Conclusion: The first 5years of arrival still a high risk for reactivation ofTB in the expatriates even though they have normal screening test on arrival. It is possible to improve this control of TB among high prevalence expatriates by application of preventive health care measures such as Mantoux skin testing, preventive therapy, and / or BCG vaccination for those aged under 30.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Authors: El Alamy O. R. , Gehani A. A.
Published: December 2020

Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm into the hand, becomes pressed or squeezed at the wrist. The median nerve controls sensations to the palm side of the thumb and fingers (although not the little finger), as well as impulses to some small muscles in the hand that allow the fingers and thumb to move. The carpal tunnel - a narrow, rigid passageway of ligament and bones at the base of the hand 3/4 houses the median nerve and tendons. Sometimes, thickening from irritated tendons or other swelling narrows the tunnel and causes the median nerve to be compressed. The result may be pain, weakness, or numbness in the hand and wrist, radiating up the arm. Although painful sensations may indicate other conditions, carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common and widely known of the entrapment neuropathies in which the body's peripheral nerves are compressed or traumatized.
Usefulness of Cytokeratin CK7 and CK20 in the Diagnosis of Barrett's Esophagus (BE)

Published: December 2020

Diagnosis of BE is hinged on the presence of intestinal metaplasia (IM) and inflammation in the lower esophagus. However IM can occur in the cardia and lower esophagus following reflux and helicobacter infection. The special stain for demonstrating intestinal metaplasia cannot distinguish IM in BE and that in cardia or lower esophagus due to other causes(1). Quite often biopsies labeled lower esophagus by the endoscopist may in fact be from the cardia especially in cases where the gastro-esophageal junction is indistinct.

Getting To The Core:
Authors: Kohl Marie-Anne
Published: December 2020

This article discusses the construction and representation of nature in the composition and performance of Meredith Monk’s song cycle “Facing North” by analyzing the quality of the performing voices, their physicality, and by bringing them into relation to the associations and contexts evoked by the songs’ titles. Based on voice and nature concepts in cultural studies, this article argues that this approach creates a very specific concept of nature, which is artistic and artificial at the same time. Through contextualising the concept of nature established in “Facing North” with a specific, gendered construction of nature as basis of a narrative of North American identity as depicted by musicologist Denise Von Glahn, it becomes evident how the composition and performance of “Facing North” at once accord with and oppose to a gendered concept of nature.
Jazz education in Western Switzerland in the 1970s and 1980s
Authors: Piecek Monika , Güsewell Angelika
Published: December 2020

This article aims to complement the understanding of the implementation, expansion, and formalisation of jazz education as well as of how jazz was learnt and taught in the 1970s and 1980s in the Western, French-speaking, part of Switzerland. Focussing on this specific geographical context, it takes a close look at the transition from traditional, informal learning to what are considered as more formal realms of learning in jazz education. Drawing both on documentary analysis and in-depth, semi-structured interviews conducted with former students, directors, and teachers of the first jazz schools and jazz departments, it provides a description of the Swiss jazz educational landscape at its beginnings. Two educational models that emerged are compared in the light of the formal-informal spectrum. Finally, the music training trajectories of nine students who attended the newly created settings for jazz learning are analysed. Special attention is given to learning practices, skills transfer and the processes of access to and appropriation of music learning environments. These analyses provide evidence of the flexibility and shifting character of organisational boundaries and educational practices during the implementation of new patterns of music learning.
Establishing Italian Jazz on the International Scene 1960-1980
Authors: Martinelli Francesco
Published: December 2020

This paper sheds new light on the developments in Italian jazz in the two decades 1960-1980. It opens by touching on context and antecedents: the relationships with Italian musical traditions in early American jazz, the acceptance and refusal of jazz by Italian cultural institutions and movements before 1960, and the late '50s key developments both in jazz and arts/media. In the early '60s, Italian jazz was characterized by two small scenes with marked differences in Rome and Milan and with a few further relevant events. An active and well rooted specialist magazine (Musica Jazz) provides relatively good documentation on these beginnings, quite detached from other general movements in music. By the end of the decade several ideological, cultural, political ruptures will have changed this panorama, and while Italian jazz was active in these changes, its exponents also had to deal with the complex situation they created from the point of view of artistic challenges, working conditions, and relationships with the recording industry. In order to discuss these changes and the different strategies adopted by musicians, four case studies will be examined to gain a better understanding of the process. Nunzio Rotondo, while almost unknown outside of Italy, was one of the first Italian musicians to successfully perform internationally after the war. He subsequently worked within the Rome jazz scene, with limited exposure both live and on record. Giorgio Gaslini's ground-breaking work of the late 50s, his training in ‘classical' music, and his unflagging commitment to exploration made him a personality similar to Portal and Gulda. However, his artistic successes did not close the chasm between ‘serious' music and jazz in Italy. Enrico Rava took the opposite road to Rotondo, widely performing abroad and paying dues in Buenos Aires, New York, and Paris before gaining acceptance worldwide and in his own country. He has been instrumental in the creation of an international image of Italian jazz and even of an Italian sound, opening the doors to many others. Perigeo was a ‘jazz-rock' group of the early 70s. Their recordings are still extremely popular. The reaction to their music by the jazz establishment and then their curt dismissal by the industry led to their disbanding, after which the single members—Franco D'Andrea, Claudio Fasoli, Giovanni Tommaso—produced and still produce some of the most exciting Italian jazz.

Det produktive praksissjokket: Nyutdannede læreres fortellinger om lærer-elev-forholdet i overgangen fra lærerutdanning til lærerarbeid
Authors: Amdal Irina Ivashenko , Willbergh Ilmi
Published: December 2020

Overgangen fra lærerutdanning til lærerarbeid omtales i forskningen både som utfordrende og som en mulighet for profesjonell utvikling. Denne studien undersøker hvordan nyutdannede læreres overgang fra utdanning til arbeid kan forstås som en danningsprosess. Studien baserer seg på ti semistrukturerte intervjuer med fem deltakere (ett i siste semester på grunnskolelærerutdanningen og ett etter de første tre månedene i arbeid). Studien benytter narrativ og tematisk analyse, og bygger på et hermeneutisk danningsteoretisk perspektiv. Sett fra et slikt perspektiv er overgangen en prosess preget av utvikling og horisontutvidelse der forandringen finner sted etter at de nyutdannede har kommet ut i jobb. Vi finner at de nyutdannedes forståelseshorisont etter tre måneder i arbeid er preget av deres tidligere forståelser. Det å begynne å jobbe utløser en opplevelse av at de forventningene man hadde, ikke innfris. Videre finner vi at det at den nyutdannede går fra å være den som lærer, til å bli den som har ansvar for andres læring og danning, har stor betydning for oppfattelsen av lærer-elev-forholdet. Sett fra denne artikkelens perspektiv kan overgangen fra utdanning til arbeidsliv forstås som en potensielt smertefull danningsprosess som initierer de nyutdannedes profesjonelle utvikling.

The productive transition into teaching: Novice teachers’ narratives of the teacher-pupil relationship

Abstract

The transition from teacher education to the teaching profession is challenging, but also an opportunity for professional development. The present study investigates novice teachers’ transition into teaching from the perspective of Bildung. Ten semi-structured interviews were conducted with five participants twice: the last semester in the teacher education programme, and after three months in practice. The interviews were analysed by using thematic and narrative analysis, as well as a hermeneutic and Bildung-centred perspective. Seen from this perspective, the transition is a process characterised by development and broadening of horizon of understanding, where the change occurs after starting work. We find that the novice teachers’ horizons after three months of work are influenced by their previous horizons. Also, we find that the shift from being a learner to becoming responsible for other people’s learning, has a considerable impact on the novice teachers’ understanding of the teacher-pupil relationship. This article argues that the transition from teacher education to working in schools, is a potentially painful process of Bildung that initiates professional development for novice teachers.

Wie man Gewalt den Weg bereitet – Wirkung und Gefahren martialischer Sprache im Wettkampf
Authors: Weidner Astrid , Ruck Ivo
Published: December 2020

Martialische Sprache findet sich in vielen Bereichen unseres alltäglichen Lebens. Sie zeichnet sich durch rohen Tonfall, Kriegsvokabular und einschüchternde Ausdrucksweisen aus. Ob bei Fußballspielen oder Wahlkämpfen: Wer unbedacht spricht, kann sich schnell - teils absichtlich - im Ton vergreifen. Dieser Beitrag geht anhand einschlägiger Literatur und aktueller Beispiele der Frage nach, wo martialische Wettkampfsprache ihren Ursprung hat, wie sie Anwendung findet und welche Wirkung und Konsequenzen sie nach sich zieht. Dabei liegt der Fokus insbesondere auf den Bereichen Sport und Politik. Bei näherer Betrachtung wird klar, dass martialische Sprache schon seit jeher im Wesen des Wettkampfsports verankert und dort auch durchaus erwünscht ist. Heutzutage bemühen sich Spieler, Trainer und Berichterstatter, sie durch alternative Ausdrucksweisen zu ersetzen. In der Politik hingegen zeigen sich martialische Phrasen vor allem an den Rändern des politischen Spektrums, wobei sie hier beispielsweise der Schaffung klarer Feindbilder dienen. Martialische Sprache kann in positiver Weise gruppenintegrativ, aber in negativer Weise gewalt- und angstfördernd wirken. Ob und inwiefern die Verwendung martialischer Phrasen tragbar ist und wo sich die Grenze zur Verrohung befindet, wird im Laufe des Artikels diskutiert.
Whales as Indicators of Historical and Current Changes in the Marine Ecosystem of the Indo-Pacific Sector of the Antarctic
Authors: Fujise Yoshihiro , A. Pastene Luis
Published: December 2020

We review the scientific information on whales that could be indicative of historical and current changes in the ecosystem in the Indo-Pacific sector of the Antarctic. The increased krill availability in the middle of the past century as a result of the heavy harvesting of the larger baleen whale species could have been translated into better nutritional conditions for the Antarctic minke whale, resulting in a decreasing trend in the age at sexual maturity and an increasing trend in recruitment rate and hence total population size between approximately 1940 and 1970. This nutritional condition has deteriorated more recently, as revealed by a decrease in energy storage and stomach content weight since the 1980’s; these changes coincide with appreciable increases in the abundances of humpback and fin whales, which were heavily harvested in the first half of the past century. The historical demographic changes observed in the Antarctic minke whale are consistent with the pattern to be expected under the krill surplus hypothesis, with minke whales now again competing with other (recovering) baleen whale species for krill. However, these minke whales could also be using alternative feeding areas (e.g. polynias within the pack-ice) in response to the increase in abundance and geographical expansion of these other large whale species. This could provide an alternative explanation for indications from sighting surveys and population models of a decrease and then re-stabilisation of minke whale abundance in open water areas since the 1970s.
Aplikace cizího veřejného práva v řízeních před správními orgány
Authors: Handrlica Jakub
Published: December 2020

Zatímco otázky aplikace cizího práva při rozhodování ve věcech civilního práva jsou tradičně předmětem zájmu právní nauky, problematika aplikace cizího veřejného práva správními orgány byla v odborné literatuře tematizována jenom zřídka. Důvod je přitom zřejmý: Aplikace cizího práva v soukromoprávních věcech byla státy tradičně připouštěna, protože režimy civilního práva v různých jurisdikcích byly považovány za vzájemně rovné. Co se týče práva veřejného, státy takovou rovnost v zásadě nepřipouštěly a naopak vyžadovaly, aby bylo při rozhodování ve věcech veřejného práva rigidně aplikováno vnitrostátní správní právo. I za této situace lze ovšem v našem právním řádu identifikovat případy, kdy je správnímu orgánu svěřena pravomoc rozhodovat ve věcech veřejného práva a současně má tento správní orgán aplikovat cizí správní právo. Skutečnost, že takové situace nejsou konvenčními, implikuje řadu praktických aplikačních problémů, které mohou v těchto komplikovaných situacích nastat.
The Effect of 8 Weeks of Complex Training Methods on the Countermovement Jump Performance

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to find out whether a more specific stimulus, such as training which stimulates the production of power above 90% of Pmax (Pmax = maximal average concentric power output), is effective in enhancing the countermovement jump (CMJ) performance using the method of complex pairs or separate execution of the exercises in the complex pair (separate complex pair).METHODSThirty male students of the Faculty of Sports Studies were divided into 2 experimental (EX1, EX2) and 1 control group (CNTR). The experimental groups trained for 8 weeks using the complex training (CT) method twice a week with the same amount of repetitions for each exercise. The complex pair consisted of half-squat jumps with the intensity over 90% of Pmax and plyometric depth-jumps. EX1 trained using the complex pair method with the intracomplex rest interval of up to 15 seconds. EX2 trained all sets of the half-squat jumps first and then all sets of the plyometric exercise. We used non-parametric statistics and linear regression analysis to evaluate the effect on increasing the CMJ performance after the intervention program.RESULTSThere were no significant differences between the pre-test and post-test in any of the experimental groups (p > 0.05), although there were significant differences between the weeks in EX1 and EX2 (p < 0.05). The CMJ performance increased insignificantly (p > 0.05) each week by 0.14 cm in EX1 and by 0.07 cm in EX2.  CONCLUSIONThese results did not clearly show the application of the CT methods to be useful in enhancing the CMJ. In practice we recommend using the complex pairs to save training time and increase training intensity. However, an additional longer-term intervention experiment with a bigger sample size and groups randomized by the CMJ parameter (not by Pmax) is needed.
Advantages and disadvantages of direct and indirect drying of mercantile grain and seeds
Authors: Babić Mirko , Babić Ljiljana
Published: December 2020

The question again arises as to how to dry certain types of agricultural grain products and seeds. Should it be indirect or direct? The reason for this is the occasional fires that occur in dryers. It is often and unprofessionally stated that the cause of the fires is the use of a direct dryer. However, the causes of fires are multiple, and it is seldom due to the type of dryer. Two factors determine the differences between direct and indirect drying, and these are the nutritional and safety aspects. The ambition of this study is to clarify all the important differences between direct and indirect grain drying and to eliminate the established misconceptions on this issue. Drying of sunflower, oilseed rape and sorghum is especially delicate.

Objective. The aim of this paper is to investigate the influence of nutrition and pattern behaviors on bone health in people with mental health disorders. Methods. A cross-sectional study has been conducted at the Clinic for Psychiatry of the Clinical Center of Kragujevac and at the Department of Neuropsychiatry of the Specialist-Consultative Service of Health Care Center Kragujevac. The survey included 46 patients from the age of 22 to 81, both genders, with schizophrenia as a diagnosis for mental disorders and depression determined by a psychiatrist. Quantitative testing of calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, sodium and potassium has been performed by standard biochemical methods. Vitamin D has been determined by high performance/pressure liquid chromatography i.e. by a liquid chromatography under high pressure. Results. In the whole group of patients tested, 58.7% of patients were physically active and the patients with schizophrenia (p = 0.026) were less physically active. Out of the total number, 67% of patients eat irregularly and this habit is more present in patients with schizophrenia (p = 0.003). In terms of the presence of certain nutrients, fish is more represented in the nutrition of people suffering from depression. Three patients (6.5%) reported osteoporosis in their medical history, one of whom had a spontaneous fracture. In the anamneses (6.5%) of the patients stated that their parents had had spontaneous bone fractures. Low values of 25 (OH) D in the serum were present in both study groups. Conclusion. Unhealthy lifestyles, low level of Vitamin D found in people who have mental health disorders represent risk factors for the reduced bone mass. The results of our research indicate the need for timely identification of potential risk factors and improvement of prevention in order to raise awareness of the importance of healthy lifestyles and behavior modification.
