Published: January 2025

La planificación tributaria es crucial para la estrategia operativa de las empresas, permitiéndoles minimizar la carga fiscal dentro de los marcos legales. Sin embargo, las empresas de tercera categoría en Perú, especialmente las medianas y pequeñas, enfrentan desafíos significativos debido a una comprensión limitada de las normativas tributarias. Este estudio cualitativo, con un enfoque fenomenológico, exploró la efectividad de las estrategias de planificación tributaria en estas empresas. Se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas con tres especialistas en tributación, seleccionados por su experiencia y conocimiento. Las entrevistas abordaron cuatro dimensiones clave: ausencia de planificación tributaria, características de la planificación, modificación de normas tributarias y aprendizaje empresarial. El análisis de las respuestas, realizado mediante métodos de análisis de contenido y hermenéutico utilizando Python, reveló que la insuficiente capacitación y una deficiente cultura fiscal son las principales causas de la falta de planificación tributaria, incrementando la susceptibilidad a sanciones y multas fiscales. Además, la optimización de gastos y la implementación de mecanismos de control resultaron ser fundamentales para una planificación eficaz. La gestión fiscal estratégica fue destacada como esencial para mantener la estabilidad financiera y el cumplimiento normativo, especialmente ante modificaciones normativas. La capacitación continua y la modernización de los procesos fiscales emergieron como factores críticos para mejorar la eficiencia operativa y reducir errores. La integración de los resultados con la normatividad estatal mostró la influencia positiva de la Ley del Impuesto a la Renta y la Educación Fiscal en la planificación tributaria y la gestión empresarial. En conclusión, el estudio subraya la necesidad de una planificación tributaria efectiva respaldada por una sólida formación fiscal y un marco normativo estable, recomendando fortalecer los programas de capacitación y asesoramiento, así como digitalizar y simplificar los procesos fiscales para mejorar el cumplimiento tributario y la competitividad empresarial a largo plazo.

Authors: Choi-Klier Joanna , Masters Stephanie , Lewis Danielle , Eswaran Hari , Manning Nirvana , Magann Everett
Published: January 2025

Importance: Hospital closures and the increasing lack of maternity care in rural areas is leading to greater distances traveled for obstetric care, delivery and specialized obstetric care particularly in rural areas of the United States.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to update management of in a tertiary obstetric center and review the literature on antenatal management of high-risk pregnancies on an outpatient versus and in-patient basis.

Evidence Acquisition: Electronic databases (PubMed, OVID, and EMBASE) were searched from 1990 – 9/20204 for English language abstracts. Studies were selected which examined outpatient compared with inpatient management of pregnancy at risk for adverse maternal and/or perinatal outcomes.

Results: The evolution of our program from the first publication that covered 9/2007 to 12/2012 is updated thru 12/20/23. Basic services, admitting diagnosis, costs, maternal fetal outcomes, benefits and drawbacks to patients and families and new developments are brought up to date. Our literature review identified 282 abstracts of which 28 articles became the basis of this review. Pregnancy outcomes comparing inpatient versus outpatient management include hypertension, preterm premature rupture of the membranes, preterm labor, diabetes, hyperemesis gravidarum, cost psychological impact, and satisfaction.

Conclusions: Our outpatient program has evolved since 2012 into a low cost efficient monitoring program for our referred high risk pregnancies. A review of outpatient/day care units demonstrates that they can safely provide monitoring for high-risk pregnancies.
Biological activity of polyoxometalates and their applications in anti-aging
Authors: Dan Katsuaki , Yeh Hseng-Long
Published: January 2025

Polyoxometalates (PM) exhibit a wide range of biological activities, such as antimicrobial, antitumor, and antiviral properties against neurodegenerative diseases and have been investigated for applications in catalysis and energy accumulation. Some PMs are more active than existing medicines; however, they have not been applied. In order to utilize PM, which has been found to have a wide variety of biological activities, we have discovered the possibility of bringing it into the anti-aging field. Recently, the global average life expectancy has increased, and cancer and senescence reveal an integral relationship to this aspect. For example, in anti-aging research, eliminating senescent cells from the body can increase life expectancy. Cancerous cells are either arrested during cell division as they are perceived as senescent cells or directed toward cell death by apoptosis or ferroptosis. Cancer cells are also resistant to these processes. Such interactions between cancer cells and biological defense mechanisms can also be applied to normal cells, which may lead to anti-aging effects. This review focuses on the literature available on PM, identifies the effects that broadly encompass age-related diseases from conventional disease-by-disease correspondence, and describes its potential in novel aspects of anti-aging.
Do GLP-1 receptor agonists have a place in the treatment of people with type 1 diabetes?
Authors: Dejgaard Thomas , Frandsen Christian , Holst Jens , Madsbad Sten
Published: January 2025

The glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are established for the treatment of type 2 diabetes but are not currently recommended for the treatment of people with type 1 diabetes. However, during the last decade experience has been collected regarding addition of a GLP-1 RA to insulin in patients with type 1 diabetes, both from clinical trials and off-label use. Several retrospective as well as prospective observational studies without a control group have been published. Only very few placebo-controlled, randomized studies have been presented. The present narrative review assesses the efficacy and safety of the different GLP-1 RAs and the dual GLP-1/ glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) agonist tirzepatide on glycaemic control, body weight, dose of insulin and adverse events in people with type 1 diabetes.

The reduction in HbA1c has in most studies been absent or minimal (0-0.3% (3.3 mmol/mol)), partly explained by a concomitant significant reduction in dose of insulin. The reduction in body weight has been in the range of 2-7 kg. The most pronounced reduction in body weight and dose of insulin has been obtained with semaglutide and tirzepatide. In the two largest placebo-controlled, randomized studies infrequent increases in hyperglycaemia with ketosis and hypoglycaemia were registered. The only identified clinical variable impacting the effect of GLP-1 RAs on HbA1c and dose of insulin has been residual beta-cell function. Treatment with GLP-1 based therapy was associated with more gastrointestinal adverse events. The outcomes of the studies depended on the different GLP-1 RAs applied, the intervention time and the residual beta-cell function.

Thus, combination therapy is of interest in relation to weight loss in people with obesity and type 1 diabetes, and in newly diagnosed patients with residual beta-cell function aiming at prolonging remission period. More well-designed studies of high quality are of required to better identify the subgroups, who will benefit most from adding GLP-1 based therapy to insulin in people with type 1 diabetes.

Authors: Djenderedjian Julio , Martirén Juan Luis
Published: January 2025

En este artículo estudiamos los cambios en los sistemas monetarios y los inicios de un mercado financiero en la región del Río de la Plata durante la primera mitad del siglo XIX. Se trata de un contexto de gran incertidumbre y volatilidad impulsado por las guerras de la independencia, la expansión del comercio atlántico y conflictos internos y externos posteriores. Se presentan nuevas series temporales de diversas de cotizaciones monetarias y financieras entre 1823 y 1850 en Buenos Aires y Montevideo, las dos principales plazas mercantiles de la región durante el periodo. Se ofrecen explicaciones sobre las dificultades experimentadas por ambas ciudades para imponer una nueva moneda y sobre la carrera divergente que experimentaron en esas décadas. Se postula, en ese sentido, que esa nueva divergencia tuvo consecuencias tanto dentro de las propias economías como en sus relaciones con otras regiones cercanas del antiguo imperio español y ultramarinas.

Authors: Barros Priscilla Barbosa de Miranda , Silva Marcelo Medeiros da
Published: January 2025

O presente artigo investiga como se dá a recepção de textos literários que tematizam as relações e violências de gênero, por estudantes do segundo ano do Ensino Médio de uma escola estadual da cidade de Bom Jardim, Pernambuco. A experiência da qual decorrem as nossas reflexões é produto derivado de pesquisa realizada junto ao Programa de Pós-Graduação em Formação de Professores da Universidade Estadual da Paraíba (UEPB). Metodologicamente, este estudo está inserido no rol da pesquisa-ação e ocorreu entre os meses de agosto a dezembro de 2022. Nossa pesquisa envolveu o trabalho com a leitura de seis contos que tematizam a violência de gênero, na perspectiva da formação do(a) leitor(a) literário(a) e cultural (Gomes, 2011, 2015). No entanto, neste artigo, voltamo-nos apenas ao conjunto de procedimentos aplicados à leitura do conto “Isaltina Campo Belo”. Para tanto, tomamos como subsídio os estudos voltados para o campo da formação de leitores(as) e do ensino de literatura, a exemplo de Candido (2004), Lajolo (1988), Zilberman (1986, 2012) e Ferrarezi Jr. e Carvalho (2017). Os resultados da experiência demonstram que o texto literário, sendo um encontro de experiências humanas diversas, contribui significativamente para o trabalho com a temática das relações de gênero e da violência contra a mulher, uma vez que pode sensibilizar os sujeitos e, consequentemente, despertar-lhes a consciência cultural, de modo que esses mesmos sujeitos possam vir a se tornar agentes de questionamento e transformação das estruturas sociais que fomentam as assimetrias e as violências de gênero.

Published: January 2025

Background: The limitations of Mao (Antidesma thwaiteaianum) fruit juice are the short period of production and the weight of juice products with containers. Thus, the fruit powder is the most form of juice that is solved this problem, enhancing shelf life and convenience to drink. Methods: Our study was conducted on the processing of Mao fruit powders prepared from spray and foam mat drying with their sensory evaluations; and comparison of their water activity, anthocyanin and tannin contents and antioxidant properties. Result: The foam mat drying powder had more preferable physical appearance including regularly fine granules with rose colors. While spray drying powder was irregularly coarse granules with pale rose-colored. This sensory evaluation was associated with the appearance and color of fruit powders and foam mat powder had more likeness scores on appearance, color and overall, rather than spray drying powder. Therefore, the solubility, flavor, texture and taste of foam mat powder had slightly lower likeness scores. Only anthocyanin content of spray drying powder (118.92 mg/kg) was significantly higher than foam mat powder (75.03 mg/kg). Whereas, water activity (aw), tannin content (TC) and DPPH scavenging activity (DPPH) of spray and foam mat drying powders were not statistically different at p less than 0.05 (aw = 0.41 and 0.44; TC = 0.66 and 0.65 mg/kg; DPPH = 395.69 and 335.82 mg tannin equivalent/100 g and 355.33 and 299.05 mg ascorbic acid equivalent/100 g, respectively).

Authors: Cao Tiffany , Shanty Lisa , Hussey-Gardner Brenda
Published: January 2025

This program evaluation aimed to assess the impact of a streamlined and less expensive version of Goslings-I (a NICU parent education program) on parents’ early language and literacy practices and their confidence in interacting with their infants. This evaluation used a single-group, pre- and posttest, mixed-methods design. Sixty-three parents completed pre- and postprogram questionnaires on the frequency of language and literacy activities, confidence in understanding infant signals, and program satisfaction. Seven parents participated in follow-up interviews. Interview participants reported on interaction with their infants 1–2 weeks after attending the program. Goslings-II resulted in self-reported positive behavioral changes in parent–infant interactions, increased early language and literacy activities, and enhanced confidence. Parents also reported they could apply Goslings-II skills to other parent–infant interactions, like diapering. Positive results from this evaluation are similar to the original program, Goslings-I, demonstrating program effectiveness at a more affordable price.
Exploring Pacifier-Activated Music Systems in the NICU: Improving Outcomes and Shortening Length of Stay
Authors: Holland Betty A. , Lytle Edyta
Published: January 2025

There is ample research discussing the benefits of a pacifier-activated music system with preterm and high-risk infants. Benefits include improving the quality of nonnutritive sucking (NNS) and increased feeding volume/attempts/endurance, which lead to decreased time to full oral feedings and shortened hospital stays. The use of pacifier-activated music systems supports a faster transition to oral feeding in preterm infants while learning to breastfeed or bottle feed in the NICU. When coupling pacifier-activated music systems with the NNS of a pacifier, the preterm infant gains efficacy in feeding strength and endurance. Benefits also include faster nipple feeding success, mother/infant stress reduction, fewer rehospitalizations, diminished length of stay, and other long-term benefits. This article will discuss how the benefits of using music in the NICU are widespread and should be implemented as a multidisciplinary approach in a variety of NICU settings. Several NICU patient populations can benefit from music using a music pacifier system dependent on the modes used.

Various animal diseases require colorimetric-based laboratory diagnose. One of them is the measurement of blood hemoglobin concentration. Anemia needs to be detected as early as possible, because the lack of hemoglobin inthe blood could results in a lack of oxygen being carried from the lungs to the tissues. Colorimetry is a quantitative analysis technique for colored samples to determine the concentration of a substance based on the light intensity of the color solution. Colorimetry is commonly used to measure the level of hemoglobin in the blood. Image processing using imageJ has been widely used for chemical analysis. This study was aimed to determine the potential of image processing from a desktop scanner to measure animal blood hemoglobin. The blood used was taken from five quail. Quail blood was diluted to 100%, 90%, 80%, 70%, 60% and 50% respectively. The results of hemoglobin level readings using the Sahli method were strongly correlated, but significantly different, with a spectrophotometer. The readings of hemoglobin levels using a desktop scanner have a very strong correlation and are not significantly different from the results obtained using a spectrophotometer. The image processing method from a desktop scanner can be used as an alternative to a spectrophotometer to measure blood hemoglobin levels compared to using the Sahli method.

De la justicia de economicus a la de sapiens
Authors: Correa Delgado Rafael
Published: January 2025

El presente artículo es una crítica al concepto de racionalidad de la economía neoclásica y al sesgo ideológico de la teoría de la justicia de Rawls. Se presenta como elemento esencial de la justicia una justa movilidad social, la cual requiere dos componentes fundamentales. El primero es una igualdad de oportunidades verdaderamente justa, entendida como la estricta igualdad de derechos efectivos básicos. El segundo es una justicia procedimental perfecta, definida como procedimientos equitativos que garanticen razonablemente los resultados deseados y que se fundamenten en el principio de merecimiento. Se presenta una propuesta concreta de justicia social en tres etapas. La primera prioriza exclusivamente la superación de la pobreza; la segunda etapa prioriza la equidad, y la tercera, la eficiencia.
Keynes: formular teorías para diseñar políticas
Authors: Dow Sheila
Published: January 2025

Keynes hizo una contribución única al pensamiento sobre la política económica en tres frentes importantes. En primer lugar, encabezó una nueva línea de pensamiento sobre teoría y política macroeconómicas que implicaba un papel más activo del Estado. En segundo lugar, participó activamente en el centro de políticas económicas del Reino Unido, tanto en el ámbito nacional como en el internacional. En tercer lugar, con base en su trabajo en filosofía, el contenido de su macroeconomía y su experiencia en el diseño de políticas, Keynes desarrolló un enfoque distintivo de dos etapas para entender la relación entre teoría y política. Este trabajo se centra en ese tercer aspecto y lo ilustra al explorar la forma en que Keynes abordó cuestiones como la reforma monetaria nacional e internacional. Se argumenta que la metodología de Keynes como teórico buscaba facilitar la aplicación de políticas. Con razones prácticas, Keynes puso especial atención al contexto político para identificar si sería necesario modificar la teoría para poder aplicarla, en lugar de buscar su aplicación universal. Mientras se alejaba del positivismo emergente en la economía, Keynes mantuvo presente la naturaleza y las implicaciones de su filosofía política y también el papel de las instituciones sociales.

This article discusses community service activities on Gili Iyang Island, Sumenep, Madura, which focus on implementing appropriate technology in sensing the potential of renewable energy sources. Gili Iyang Island itself is an area that actively encourages the use of renewable energy. In this activity, maintenance and monitoring of data on AirFeel are carried out, including device checks and monitoring data accuracy levels through periodic calibration. Airfeel is used as a weather station to measure the potential of renewable energy, especially wind and solar energy. The potential for wind energy is considered from the speed and direction of the wind, while the potential for solar energy is considered from the level of solar irradiation. These parameters allow Airfeel to determine the optimal location for renewable energy generation based on weather conditions. Additionally, the DJI Phantom 4 Pro RTK drone was used for 3D Mapping Photogrammetry. This technology aids in creating three-dimensional maps that are considered in the planning and development of renewable energy power plants at the location. Implementing these two technologies can contribute to future planning for developing other renewable energy sources in Gili Iyang Island.

The freshwater fish farm, developed by the Maju Rukun community in Dusun Karang Ploso, Ngerong, has faced issues with slow fish growth and poor water quality after operating for seven months. These problems are caused by inadequate water circulation systems, resulting in a delayed growth process that normally takes only 3 to 4 months. The situation is exacerbated by poor drainage and high electricity consumption for a 0.5 HP (370 Watt) water pump. The water must be partially replaced with new water on a regular basis to maintain its quality. This procedure increases electricity consumption from the public grid or Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) and raises operational costs by up to 80%, especially during the dry season. To address this issue, a community service project has been carried out to develop a 1.7 kWp hybrid Solar Power Plant. This system is designed to reduce reliance on PLN electricity and to provide additional energy for water circulation using solar panels and batteries. Additionally, this community service also includes training on how to operate and perform maintenance of the installed system for the Maju Rukun community and the locals. Implementing the hybrid power plant has significantly reduced electricity costs from PLN. Moreover, fish farm productivity has increased and contributed positively to the development of renewable energy technology in the fisheries sector.

During mechanical energy harvesting, complicated mechanical loads are expected to be converted into electrical energy types, including compression, extension, torque, and the coupling of them. Mechanical energy harvesting evaluation is necessary, and it is normally applied by precise mechanical sensing, such as strain gauges and piezoelectric materials. The additional and changing equivalent stiffness of the sensing approach decreases the mechanical sensing precision, and then the energy harvesting evaluation is affected. This study introduces a method for torsional sensing with torsional quasi-zero stiffness (TQZS) structures by flexoelectricity. By designing the bending beam geometry, a structure with an extended TQZS range is developed, enabling enhanced mechanical and electrical performance. Within the TQZS loading range, the generated flexoelectric charges exhibit a robust linear relationship with structural deformation, providing precise monitoring capabilities for torsion-related mechanical quantities. By leveraging flexoelectric effect, the proposed structure also converts mechanical load into electrical signal, making it suitable for high-resolution sensing, helping energy harvesting applications.
