Authors: Barreto Karina , Achinelli-Báez Marcela Fernanda
Published: July 2022

El estudio buscó analizar la relación del empoderamiento femenino con la participación política de las mujeres en Paraguay. La metodología fue descriptiva y correlacional, se realizó una investigación de modalidad bibliográfica-documental. De esta forma, se visibilizó la exclusión tácita de los derechos políticos de las mujeres paraguayas hasta 1961 como uno de los antecedentes simbólicos que podría explicar la baja participación política de las mujeres en Paraguay. Otros factores que podrían ser interseccionales a la problemática son el idioma, la etnia, la clase social y la carga horaria del trabajo no remunerado asumido. Por otro lado, se analizaron datos cuantitativos provistos por el Sistema de Información Legislativa (2021). Se comprobó que la participación femenina en el Congreso de Paraguay se incrementó en los periodos analizados. Para este efecto se tuvo en cuenta a los congresistas titulares, suplentes y vitalicios que accedieron a espacios en la toma de decisiones.

Pada zaman modern ini, partisipasi perempuan bukan hanya sekedar menuntut persamaan hak, melainkan memiliki peran lainnya. Partisipasi perempuan memiliki dua peran yang berbeda, yaitu peran tradisi dan peran transisi. Peran tradisi atau domestik dikategorikan peran perempuan sebagai istri, ibu, dan pengelola dalam rumah tangga. Sementara itu, peran transisi merupakan peran perempuan sebagai tenaga kerja, dan anggota masyarakat. Peran transisi wanita sebagai tenaga kerja, turut aktif dalam kegiatan ekonomis yaitu mencari nafkah di berbagai kegiatan sesuai dengan ketrampilan, dan pendidikan yang dimiliki, serta lapangan pekerjaan yang tersedia (Sukesi dalam Zuhdi, 2018).

Published: July 2022

The edible halophyte Nitraria retusa known in traditional medicine purposes was used as a support in this study. The present study investigated the chemical analyses of the general composition of leaf and stem extracts using RP-HPLC. Results showed the richness of these extracts in phenolics especially flavonoids as luteolin-7-O-glucoside, isorhamnetin-3-O-rutinoside, isorhamnetin, quercetin and others. In total, nine compounds were identified for each organ extract. Luteolin-7-O-glucoside, isorhamnetin-3-O-rutinoside and Isorhamnetin are three flavonoids which are common in leaves and stems. Adipogenesis assay was performed to investigate the effect of organs, as well as the three last compounds on the adipocyte differentiation and on the lipid droplets accumulation in 3T3-L1 cells. Based on Oil-Red-O content quantification in 3T3-L1 cells, results showed that each extract of N. retusa at 25, 50, 100, 200 and 400 μg/mL could not inhibit the lipid droplet accumulation compared to untreated cells, in dose dependent manner. However, compounds showed better effect especially with isorhamnetin even with 5μM. Moreover, the effect of extracts and single bioactive components on cell proliferation of 3T3-L1 cells showed that stem extract was more efficient than leaf one. Besides, according to morphological observation, isorhamnetin strongly and significantly affected cell proliferation.

Authors: AK Nkporbu , O Ayodeji
Published: July 2022

Background: Depression is the single largest contributor to global disability and disease burden. Medical students are considered a vulnerable group because they have to deal with stressors specific to medical education. Psychological morbidity in medical students represents a neglected public health problem and holds major implications for health services and mental health policymaking. Aim: To ascertain the prevalence of depression and its impact on academic performance among medical students. Design: A systematic review Data sources: Systematic search for worldwide published literature from PubMed, PsycINFO, EMBASE, Google Scholar, EMBASE, Science Direct, BioMed Central and Medline databases Study eligibility criteria: Studies included in this review reported the methods and/or measures for the prevalence of depression and academic performance among medical students Data extraction: Data extraction was undertaken by the first reviewer, and checked by a second reviewer. All identified papers were critically appraised independently by both reviewers. Information was extracted from each included study (including author, title, year and setting of study). These data abstraction forms were reviewed and eligible papers entered into the meta-analysis. Result: Out of a total of 2,236 publications retrieved, after examining the titles, abstracts (if abstract was unavailable, the article was nevertheless counted) and the reference lists for related articles, only 14 studies satisfied all the inclusion criteria. Non-English articles (French 1, Japanese 1, Mexican 1, Korean 2) were excluded to save time and cost. Conclusion: Moderate and severe depression showed a high prevalence among medical students.

A Novel Approach to the Respiratory Disease Follow-up Based on Plethhysmography Signal Parameters
Authors: Fernandez Rene I Gonzalez , Hernandez Caceres Jose L , Perez Blanco Jorge G
Published: July 2022

Aim: The aim of this paper is to present a novel approach for the monitoring of respiratory diseases based on the combined study of heart rate, respiratory rate and Pulse Oximetry (SpO2). Introduction: Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, respiratory diseases have increased its worldwide prevalence dramatically. Added to the impact of the pandemic is the already existing situation of a growing prevalence of diseases such as bronchial asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). On the other hand, it is known that the cardiovascular system is overloaded when there are respiratory insufficiencies and this condition can cause severe damage to health. Pulmonology and Cardiology are independent medical specialties that deal with these diseases and often do not cooperate with each other strongly, so a proposal is presented that combines respiratory and cardiovascular variables to deal with this health problem. Methods: A prototype was developed based on the STM32L073CZTx processor controlling the E305654 pulse oximetry module, which on demand delivers SpO2, photo plethysmography signal samples and pulse rate values. A vector was computed, every thirty minutes, to combine the respiratory rate obtained from the Plethysmography Signal (PPG), the mean value of SpO2 and the pulse rate. The vector module represents the cardiovascular and respiratory systems performance. Results: Twenty healthy volunteers, twenty people with COPD and five subjects suffering bronchial asthma, during periods without crisis, were studied. The dispersion within the group of each patient was not significant, but a notable difference can be observed between the healthy volunteers and the other people studied. A "normal region" can be set with clearly defined borders. Conclusion: The proposed solution seems promising for evaluating respiratory function even when it is compensated by a cardiac response, making it easier to identify people suffering from respiratory diseases and who may appear normal or healthy.

A Research Study of the Effects of Education on Soft Power and Public Diplomacy: The Case of Iran International Al Mustafa
Authors: İNAN Ömer
Published: July 2022

With globalization, hard power elements have lost thier prior importance in interstate relations. In this context, states have focused on gaining the consent of other actors. In other words, the use of soft power has come to the fore. Within the scope of the use of soft power, states focused on gaining the sympathy of the people of the countries. The policy implemented within this framework is called public diplomacy. One of the most important elements of public diplomacy is education diplomacy. Due to the increasing importance of education diplomacy, many states attach importance to international education activities. In this article, the concepts of power, soft power, public diplomacy and education diplomacy are discussed at the conceptual and theoretical level. After examining the examples of USA, Germany, France and China, Iran education diplomacy, which determines the subject of the article, will be examined through the example of International Al Mustafa.

Authors: do Carmo Daniel Dias Dornelas , Sampronha Stephanie , Santos Charles Morphy D. , Ribeiro Guilherme Cunha
Published: July 2022

Popularly known as horse flies or deer flies, Tabanidae, has 4.400 described species distributed worldwide. Most of the females are hematophagous, but several species are also flower visitors. Cretaceous fossils of Tabanidae are scarce and the known fossil species have plesiomorphic features unknown in modern horse flies. Here, we revised the taxonomy of the Tabanidae from the Crato Formation of Brazil describing a new genus,Araripusgen. nov., and two new species –Araripus crassitibialissp. nov. andCratotabanus cearensissp. nov. The holotype ofCratotabanus stonemyomorphus, the type species ofCratotabanus, is redescribed, and the male is described for the first time. In addition, we investigate the phylogenetic position of Cretaceous horse fly fossils using morphological characters in the context of a wider analysis also including representatives of extant lineages.

Published: July 2022

Herbivores obtain nutrients mostly from the vegetation they consume, but may obtain additional minerals during periods of nutritional stress by consuming bones (osteophagia), a behavioral strategy that has been reported for many wild ungulate species, including the white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus). Here we document multiple records (n = 183 camera-trap records) of osteophagia by white-tailed deer chewing sea turtle remains (resulting from jaguar [Panthera onca] predation) near a nesting beach in Santa Rosa National Park, Costa Rica during January-September 2017. Females with fawns, males with hard and velvet-covered antlers, and non-spotted fawns reached a peak of sea turtle bone consumption during June to August. We hypothesize that seasonality, sex, age, and individual growth stage influence the frequency of osteophagy as a strategy to cope with environmental changes and food resource scarcity. Finally, these observations highlight the role of an apex predator as indirectly influencing rare but important ecological processes.

Authors: Allela Omer , Salih Hishyar Mohammed , Haji Ahmed Idris
Published: July 2022

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic, progressive disorder that causes a variety of health problems. Adherence to medication is a major factor in the treatment outcome. The goal of this study is to translate and test the psychometric features of the Kurdish version of the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8) among type 2 diabetic patients.

Methods: The research used a cross-sectional approach. The researchers looked at a convenient sample of diabetic Kurdish individuals. MMAS-8 was translated into Kurdish using a normal “forward–backward” technique. It was then tested on 307 type 2 diabetic outpatients in a convenience sample. Internal consistency was checked for reliability. Convergent and known group validity were used to confirm validity. For the authentic statistical analysis, the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20 was used.

Results: According to MMAS-8, 20 patients (6.5%) had a high adherence rate, 66 (21.5%) had a medium adherence rate, and 221 (72%) had a low adherence rate. There was no significant link between adherence score and gender (P = 0.055), illness duration (P = 0.251), or educational level (P = 0.12). There was a significant connection between adherence and HBA1C (P 0.001).

Conclusion: The results of this validation study show that the Kurdish version of the MMAS-8 is a reliable and valid measure of medication adherence that may now be used. non-adherent. Developing patients’ treatment adherence will improve treatment managements and control.

Licencier et réembaucher
Authors: Freyssinet Jacques
Published: July 2022

La pandémie de Covid-19 a favorisé le recours des entreprises britanniques à la pratique du licenciement suivi d’une proposition de réembauche immédiate à des conditions inférieures. Les syndicats protestent, alertent l’opinion publique et font pression pour obtenir une intervention du gouvernement. Si le chantage à l’emploi est souvent efficace, quelques grands conflits ont démontré, au moins localement, des capacités de mobilisations parfois partiellement victorieuses. Il semble difficile toutefois d’espérer une protection efficace sans une modification de la législation.

La pratique notionnelle : l’« art de théoriser » dans la pratique jungienne contemporaine
Authors: Mogenson Greg , Raguet Christian
Published: July 2022

Enracinée dans la notion traditionnelle jungienne d’âme, la pratique notionnelle est une approche psychothérapique dans laquelle la pratique de la théorie, ou mieux, l’art de théoriser, joue un rôle central dans tous les aspects du processus thérapeutique. Alors que la plupart des psychologies sont basées sur quelque chose d’extérieur à la psyché, ou sur des phénomènes psychiques particuliers considérés comme ayant une signification universelle, la pratique notionnelle est liée à une attitude analytique qui est pleinement en accord avec l’intuition de Jung concernant l’absence d’un point d’observation archimédien sur cette discipline, extérieur ou transcendant à la psyché. De même que Jung a dû apprendre que l’âme ne pouvait pas être l’objet de son jugement et de sa connaissance, mais, à l’inverse, que son jugement et sa connaissance étaient les objets de son âme, de même chaque jour dans nos pratiques, lorsque nous saisissons cette énigme sous ses myriades de formes, nous nous initions à la subtilité conceptuelle d’un esprit véritablement psychologique.
Job et le processus de somatisation
Authors: Concha Maria Carolina
Published: July 2022

Dans le livre « Réponse à Job », Jung fait l’analogie entre l’image de Yahvé, telle qu’elle apparaît dans l’histoire de Job de l’Ancien Testament, et notre expérience de l’inconscient. La nature toute puissante et contradictoire de l’inconscient transpersonnel ou collectif peut infliger des épreuves douloureuses à la conscience de l’homme, comme celles que Yahvé fait subir à Job dans le drame divin. À travers sa création poétique, une patiente atteinte de troubles somatiques introduit l’image de Job dans son analyse. L’élaboration symbolique que Jung fait de l’histoire de Job trouve, dans le cas de Cécile, une illustration de son importance psychologique. Le cheminement de Job est la métaphore d’un parcours initiatique qui nous aide à surmonter l’épreuve de la souffrance. La confrontation avec le divin, à laquelle Job nous convoque, atteint la révélation de la nature divine en Job. Pour la patiente, la confrontation avec l’inconscient collectif et le dialogue avec les images archétypales produit une transformation dans la nature de l’inconscient et un élargissement de sa conscience.
Le traitement juridique de la délinquance militaire dans les bases américaines au Japon
Authors: Seizelet Éric
Published: July 2022

Résumé Le Japon et les États-Unis sont liés depuis 1951-1952 par des accords de sécurité et de stationnement (SOFA), révisés en 1960. Ces accords définissent non seulement les modalités de la coopération stratégique entre les deux pays, mais aussi le statut des forces américaines présentes dans l'archipel. La présence de ces bases pose un certain nombre de problèmes de cohabitation avec les communautés locales dans lesquelles elles sont implantées, principalement à Okinawa qui concentre l'essentiel du dispositif américain dans l'archipel. La thèse de la nature criminogène de ces bases refait surface à chaque infraction grave, viol ou meurtre, commise par un militaire américain. Elle justifie les appels à une délocalisation des bases et à une révision des accords SOFA. Le présent article s'interroge en conséquence sur la pertinence du principe d'exterritorialité pénale souvent avancé par le mouvement anti-bases, par une analyse des règles juridiques présidant à l'organisation et au fonctionnement du système de responsabilité pénale des militaires étrangers et dresse le bilan en demi-teinte des négociations bilatérales pour affirmer et étendre la juridiction pénale japonaise sur ces affaires.
Encadrer en environnements extrêmes : une étude de la part inobservable de l’activité d’élèves-officiers lors de stages d’aguerrissement

Encadrer un collectif de travail en environnements extrêmes est une tâche très difficile mais souvent cruciale pour l’organisation. Sans toujours y avoir été formé ou préparé, il s’agit de créer les conditions nécessaires pour faire face à une « sur-sollicitation » de l’environnement (instabilité, incertitude, confusion, danger, etc.) et la surmonter. Cela nécessite une activité d’encadrement située et conjointe, de relation à autrui, qui reste largement inobservable et n’est pas directement accessible. Notre étude visait (i) à mieux comprendre la nature de l’activité de cadres lorsqu’ils cherchent à maintenir la capacité opérationnelle des acteurs sous leur direction en environnements extrêmes et (ii) à dériver des orientations pour leur formation. Inscrite dans le cadre théorique du cours d’action, elle a consisté à qualifier la part inobservable de cette activité en analysant le vécu des élève-officiers et en identifiant les dispositions nécessaires au maintien de la capacité opérationnelle au cours de simulations à visée formative (stage d’aguerrissement). Accordant le primat au point de vue intrinsèque de l’acteur, la recherche a mobilisé les objets théoriques du « cours d’expérience », « d’activité-signe » et de « disposition ». Les résultats décrivent quatre dispositions typiques : (i) veiller à l’unité du collectif, (ii) mobiliser le corps comme ressource, (iii) réguler les émotions selon un mode d’expression et de masquage et (iv) articuler les contraires comme mode d’exercice du discernement en action. La discussion conceptualise ces dispositions comme propices à la création d’espaces de travail « néguentropiques », et émet des propositions pour la formation, la préparation et l’entrainement.

Published: July 2022

To achieve collision-avoiding flocking in finite time, a modified Cucker-Smale model with general inter-driving force is proposed. First, it is proved that the system can achieve conditional collision-avoiding flocking in finite time by imposing appropriate restrictions on the initial states. Moreover, a special case of the inter-driving force is demonstrated. Last, the correctness of the results is verified through numerical simulations.
Locally Robust Semiparametric Estimation

Many economic and causal parameters depend on nonparametric or high dimensional first steps. We give a general construction of locally robust/orthogonal moment functions for GMM, where first steps have no effect, locally, on average moment functions. Using these orthogonal moments reduces model selection and regularization bias, as is important in many applications, especially for machine learning first steps. Also, associated standard errors are robust to misspecification when there is the same number of moment functions as parameters of interest.

We use these orthogonal moments and cross‐fitting to construct debiased machine learning estimators of functions of high dimensional conditional quantiles and of dynamic discrete choice parameters with high dimensional state variables. We show that additional first steps needed for the orthogonal moment functions have no effect, globally, on average orthogonal moment functions. We give a general approach to estimating those additional first steps. We characterize double robustness and give a variety of new doubly robust moment functions. We give general and simple regularity conditions for asymptotic theory.
A Comment on “Using Randomization to Break the Curse of Dimensionality”
Authors: Bray Robert L.
Published: July 2022

Rust (1997b) discovered a class of dynamic programs that can be solved in polynomial time with a randomized algorithm. For these dynamic programs, the optimal values of a polynomially large sample of states are sufficient statistics for the (near) optimal values everywhere, and the values of this random sample can be bootstrapped from the sample itself. However, I show that this class is limited, as it requires all but a vanishingly small fraction of state variables to behave arbitrarily similarly to i.i.d. uniform random variables.
Terrorism Financing, Recruitment, and Attacks
Authors: Limodio Nicola
Published: July 2022

This paper investigates the effect of terrorism financing and recruitment on attacks. I exploit a Sharia‐compliant institution in Pakistan, which induces unintended and quasi‐experimental variation in the funding of terrorist groups through their religious affiliation. The results indicate that higher terrorism financing, in a given location and period, generate more attacks in the same location and period. Financing exhibits a complementarity in producing attacks with terrorist recruitment, measured through data from Jihadist‐friendly online fora and machine learning. A higher supply of terror is responsible for the increase in attacks and is identified by studying groups with different affiliations operating in multiple cities. These findings are consistent with terrorist organizations facing financial frictions to their internal capital market.
Beyond Health: Nonhealth Risk and the Value of Disability Insurance
Authors: Deshpande Manasi , Lockwood Lee M.
Published: July 2022

The public debate over disability insurance has centered on concerns about individuals without severe health conditions receiving benefits. We go beyond health risk alone to quantify the overall insurance value of U.S. disability programs, including value from insuring nonhealth risk. We find that disability recipients, especially those with less‐severe health conditions, are much more likely to have experienced a wide variety of nonhealth shocks than nonrecipients. Selection into disability receipt on the basis of nonhealth shocks is so strong among individuals with less‐severe health conditions that by many measures less‐severe recipients are worse off than more‐severe recipients. As a result, under baseline assumptions, benefits to less‐severe recipients have an annual surplus value (insurance benefit less efficiency cost) over cost‐equivalent tax cuts of $7700 per recipient, about three‐fourths that of benefits to more‐severe recipients ($9900). Insurance against nonhealth risk accounts for about one‐half of the value of U.S. disability programs.
Gender and barbecue
Authors: Leer Jonatan
Published: July 2022

Barbecuing is often highlighted as one of the most masculine forms of cooking. In this paper, I will analyse a recent Netflix documentary series, Chef’s Table: BBQ, with portraits of four different barbecue chefs, including two women. The barbecue chefs are from Australia, Mexico, and the US. The goal of the paper is to discuss how this documentary reframes our understanding of gender and barbecuing by including these highly acclaimed female barbecue chefs. The main argument of the paper is that despite the series’ celebration of female barbecue chefs, more subtle forms of gender distinctions are nonetheless apparent, notably in relation to mobility and how the male chefs are described as innovative and as individuals who go beyond their culinary roots, unlike the female barbecue chefs who are defined by immobility and tradition. In the discussion, it is argued that the series reflects two oppositional, but co-existing trends in contemporary food consumption: 1) the urge to be innovative, cosmopolitan, and hip and 2) a nostalgia for a more rooted, traditional, and locavore approach to food. It might be worth considering more generally how these trends are gendered in different contexts.
The daily struggle
Authors: Oceguera Emilia Cordero
Published: July 2022

Previous research on migrant farmworkers’ resistance efforts in the US focuses on collective organizing but often fails to adopt an intersectional lens that considers farmworker women’s everyday acts of resistance. This study looks at Mexican farmworker women’s resistance in response to the call by scholars for more nuanced portrayals of migrant farmworker’s struggle. Immigrant women of color and low-wage workers have mothering experiences marked by intersectional oppression that shape their food labor. I argue that farmworker mothers engage in everyday acts of resistance via their food labor in their agricultural work and at home feeding their families. An intersectional lens provides an essential perspective on the systemic transformations needed to improve farmworker’s lives in the US.
Food sovereignty and popular feminism in Brazil

La Marcha das Margaridas est une coalition de mouvements de femmes et de féministes, de mouvements agraires, de syndicats et d’organisations internationales qui a vu le jour en 2000. Les organisations de femmes, au sein d’un syndicat rural, dirigent le processus. En commençant par des revendications - fondées sur le genre et la classe sociale, pour la reconnaissance du travail des femmes dans la production alimentaire, l’accès aux titres fonciers et les droits du travail - la Marcha das Margaridas a progressivement intégré d’autres sujets dans son programme, tels que l’agroécologie et la souveraineté alimentaire. L’article aborde trois questions : Comment la souveraineté alimentaire est-elle entrée dans leur programme ? Quelle est la signification de la souveraineté alimentaire pour leur mobilisation ? Comment comprendre la souveraineté alimentaire dans une perspective féministe (populaire) ? Notre recherche est basée sur l’observation participante des deux dernières éditions de la manifestation (en 2015 et en 2019), les entretiens avec des activistes et l’analyse de documents.
Cooking more than food
Authors: Wooten Stephen
Published: July 2022

Dans le Mali rural contemporain, lorsqu'il s'agit de cuisiner, il existe une stricte division du travail. Les femmes préparent toujours les repas. Chaque jour, elles transforment des ingrédients crus en plats cuisinés pour elles-mêmes et leurs familles. Par leurs activités alimentaires quotidiennes, elles produisent une nourriture de subsistance essentielle. Cependant, leur travail au foyer aide à créer plus que de la nourriture. Dans cet article, je souligne le rôle important que jouent les femmes de la région dans le domaine vital de la préparation des aliments et, par extension, dans la création de fils conducteurs du tissu de la vie sociale et culturelle. À l'aide des informations tirées d'une recherche ethnographique longitudinale approfondie sur le plateau du Mandé au centre du Mali, je montre comment les activités culinaires des femmes ont soutenu la création et le maintien de dynamiques socioculturelles durables. Leur cuisine et leurs repas contribuent à favoriser les valeurs et les dispositions fondamentales, facilitent la dynamique familiale et communautaire élémentaire et, peut-être plus important encore, (re)produisent des identités de genre et des relations de genre. J'utilise cette étude de cas pour attirer l'attention sur la signification culturelle de la cuisine et plus largement sur l'agency alimentaire des femmes.
La parure de Marie-Fortunée d’Este, princesse de Conti (1731-1803) Une médicalisation du paraître ?
Authors: Chatenet-Calyste Aurélie
Published: July 2022

L’heureuse conservation des comptes de la maison de Marie-Fortunée d’Este, princesse de Conti (1731-1803), permet de réfléchir à la construction des apparences nobiliaires. Venue de Modène en 1759 pour épouser l’héritier de la branche cadette des Bourbons, Marie-Fortunée d’Este adopte rapidement les règles du paraître curial. La séparation conjugale de 1776, son retrait de la sociabilité aristocratique, associés au vieillissement et à la maladie, contribuent à modifier son apparence. Grâce à la précision des factures des parfumeurs, le cas de la princesse de Conti apporte un éclairage sur l’appropriation des pratiques et des techniques de l’apparence aulique. Il interroge au-delà la médicalisation du paraître de cette princesse d’âge mûr et maladive.
Jean-Louis Fargeon, fournisseur de la cour de France : art et techniques d’un parfumeur du xviiie siècle

Jean-Louis Fargeon demeure le plus célèbre parfumeur du xviiie siècle. Nous nous attachons ici à identifier ses instruments, analyser ses dispositifs, étudier ses procédés et ses tours de main de parfumeur d’Ancien régime. Son inventaire après décès et son Art du parfumeur, publié en 1801, servent de sources principales à cette recherche. Car, si l’art et la technique de parfumeur de Jean-Louis Fargeon l’inscrivent dans la science, les pratiques et les normes de son temps, la confrontation de ces sources le singularise des tendances caractéristiques de son époque.
