Conclusión: La desnutrición es un problema que afecta a estapoblación infantil desde el nacimiento, sin embargo, también es importante destacar que tantoel riesgo de desnutrición como el de sobrepeso son relevantes en el seguimiento del estadonutricional de esta población.
Evaluation procedure for blowing machine monitoring and predicting bearing SKFNU6322 failure by power spectral density
Authors: Castilla-Gutiérrez Javier , Fortes Garrido Juan , Davila Martín Jose , Grande Gil Jose
Published: June 2021

This work shows the results of the comparative study of characteristic frequencies in terms of Power Spectral Density (PSD) or RMS generated by a blower unit and the SKFNU322 bearing. Data is collected following ISO 10816, using Emonitor software and with speed values in RMS to avoid high and low frequency signal masking. Bearing failure is the main cause of operational shutdown in industrial sites. The difficulty of prediction is the type of breakage and the high number of variables involved. Monitoring and analysing all the variables of the SKFNU322 bearing and those of machine operation for 15 years allowed to develop a new predictive maintenance protocol. This method makes it possible to reduce from 6 control points to one, and to determine which of the 42 variables is the most incidental in the correct operation, so equipment performance and efficiency is improved, contributing to increased economic profitability. The tests were carried out on a 500 kW unit of power and It was shown that the rotation of the equipment itself caused the most generating variable of vibrational energy

Published: June 2021

Objective: to study the incidence of cervical cancer in women in urban and rural areas of the Republic of Buryatia.Materials and methods. The material of registered cases of cervical cancer for 30 years (1987–2019) is taken from the documentation of the Republican Oncological Dispensary, and calculations are carried out in intensive indicators of morbidity per 100,000 women in the whole Republic, in cities, in rural areas using data from the annual population. The prognostic assessment of the incidence of cervical cancer was carried out using the method of regression analysis by extrapolating the trend. All materials were processed using the programs Statistica 8.0 and Excel 2003 with a statistically significant level of p <0.05.Results. In the region, during the analyzed period, the incidence of cervical cancer among women is high, mainly in urban than in rural areas. However, the latter also have an upward trend. The most susceptible to this pathology is the age group active in the labor and social plan – 35–54 years. Conclusions. A feature of the morbidity process of women in the city was its earlier age, 25–29 years, and its peakthe period of 45–49 years. When forming high-risk groups, it is necessary to pay close attention to the category of rural women and take into account the age group most susceptible to this pathology.
Systematic Literature Survey on Emergency Medical Services

Published: June 2021

Now-a-days considering the fast-paced world, particularly in massive cities, several services get delayed due to traffic jams. Ambulance service is one among the crucial services that get delayed fairly often. Additionally, generally onsite doctors aren't obtainable. Therefore, the patient doesn't get medical attention forthwith. ‘Traffic Control System for Smart Ambulance’ is a system which creates a ‘green corridor’ for the ambulance to reach the hospital. Also, it monitors the patient’s health and sends the data to the hospital beforehand. In health monitoring system, the patient’s very important health parameters like heart rate and body temperature are monitored. These parameters are sent to the hospital via message. In traffic control an android application is used in which the traffic control room controls the signals based on the traffic conditions and the location of ambulance and hospital seen on the app. The objective of this paper is to understand the various systems that can be used for ambulances in traffic and help the ambulance to faster reach the hospital.
Voice Feature Extraction for Gender and Emotion Recognition

Published: June 2021

Voice recognition plays a key role in spoken communication that helps to identify the emotions of a person that reflects in the voice. Gender classification through speech is a widely used Human Computer Interaction (HCI) as it is not easy to identify gender by computer. This led to the development of a model for “Voice feature extraction for Emotion and Gender Recognition”. The speech signal consists of semantic information, speaker information (gender, age, emotional state), accompanied by noise. Females and males have different voice characteristics due to their acoustical and perceptual differences along with a variety of emotions which convey their own unique perceptions. In order to explore this area, feature extraction requires pre- processing of data, which is necessary for increasing the accuracy. The proposed model follows steps such as data extraction, pre- processing using Voice Activity Detector (VAD), feature extraction using Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC), feature reduction by Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier. The proposed combination of techniques produced better results which can be useful in the healthcare sector, virtual assistants, security purposes and other fields related to the Human Machine Interaction domain.

Ethical basis of the medical profession: an axiological enquiry
Authors: Mettini Emiliano
Published: June 2021

This article discusses the question concerning the application of an axiological approach in medicine being a basically ethical profession. This approach may be used in the dying process, which can be considered an important existential moment both for the doctor and the patient. Using both religious texts of ancient authors and modern philosophers, the study tried to reveal the deepest meaning and ambivalent relationship of humans to such processes as dying and death, by analyzing them from linguistical and axiological (valuable) standpoints and by focusing on compassion and eventfulness of a physical phenomenon but not the spiritual disappearance of man from this world. Consequently, highlighting that death and dying are eventful phenomena in human life, this approach can be applied to the doctorpatient relationship, especially in patients with incurable diseases, by carrying out a deep analysis of their life, so that patients would not feel that death is a punishment for their behavior on Earth. In conclusion, the author calls to overcome what French philosopher P.M. Foucault named the clinical discourse, which arose when medicine, especially after the Great French Revolution, looked at the patient as a future cadaver, not as a subject of cure of doctors, who when without illness shall become blue collar workers of a country.

Türkiye’deki Farklı Sektörlerden Reklamların Toplumsal Cinsiyet Eşitliği Bağlamında Analizi
Authors: Akpınar Mustafa Eren
Published: June 2021

Ülkemizde özellikle son yıllarda sıklıkla tartışılan konular arasında yer alan toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliği kavramı ülke gündeminde de oldukça yoğun bir şekilde incelenen bir alan olma özelliğiyle karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Bundan kaynaklı olarak da kavramsal boyutuyla ilgili sıklıkla farklı tartışmalar doğabilmektedir. Hatta, toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliği günümüzde bile farklı disiplinlerle sıklıkla karıştırılabilmektedir. Buna en iyi örnek ise feminizm kavramının toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliği sanılmasıdır. Ancak sanıldığının aksine feminizm, toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliği ile aynı anlamı taşımamaktadır. Feminizm her ne kadar toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliği ile ilintili olsa da aslında tam olarak birbirlerini ikame eden terimler olmamaktadırlar. Fakat yine de birçok makale ya da araştırmada sanki aynı şeylermiş gibi anlatıldığına rastlanılabilmektedir. Ancak, özellikle son zamanlarda yapılan toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliği çalışmaları incelendiğinde, bu yanlış anlaşılmaların aşılmaya başlandığı gözlemlenmektedir. Aynı zamanda bu içerikler sayesinde de toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliği farkındalığı artmaya başlamakta ve sivil toplum kuruluşlarının, büyük markaların ve platformların desteğiyle de farkındalık her geçen gün daha da artmaktadır. Bu artışın en büyük göstergesi olarak da artık daha çok toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliği temelli reklamların üretilmesi ve bu konuyla ilgili ödüllerin verilmeye başlaması gösterilebilmektedir.Bu nedenle bu çalışma kapsamında 2019 Kristal Elma Ödül Töreninde Toplumsal Cinsiyet Eşitliği kategorisinde dereceye giren reklamlar literatür taraması ve göstergebilimsel analiz yöntemleri ile incelenerek ülkemizdeki toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliği hareketinin reklam ayağı ve ülkemizdeki toplumsal cinsiyet algısı üzerinden yorumlamalar yapılmaktadır.

İnsanın doğuştan gelen özelliklerinden birisi de cinsiyetidir. Bu bağlamda insanlar cinsiyetlerini kullanarak diğerleri üstünde otorite kurmaya çalışabilmektedir. Cinsiyete dayalı eşitsizliğe en çok kadınların uğradığı gözlenmekte; cinsiyetleri dolayısıyla eşleri, babaları, abileri veya diğer aile bireyleri tarafından öldürülebilmektedir. Kadınların kendi seçimleri olmayan cinsiyet yüzünden maruz kaldıkları durumlar çoğalmış ve olağan bir hale gelmiştir. Bu duruma karşı çıkan, yaşanan şiddet olaylarına dikkat çekmek isteyen ve sesini duyurmayı arzu eden kadınlar Twitter’da bir akım başlatmış, gündelik yaşamda duymakta oldukları şiddet içerikli cümleleri tersine çevirerek farkındalık yaratmaya çalışmışlardır. Böylelikle #erkekleryerinibilsin hashtagi oluşturulmuş ve bu durumu hem ironik dille anlatmışlar hem de kamuoyunu duyarlı olmaya yöneltecek cümlelerle markaları, belediyeleri ve ünlü insanları destek vermeye çağırmışlardır. Kadınların durumu tersine çeviren tweetleri ile duygudaşlık yapan her insanda bir farkındalık oluşturacağı ve duruma farklı bir açıdan bakacağı düşünülmektedir. Bu çalışmada hashtag ile başlayan ve sonrasında birçok markayı, belediye resmi hesaplarını ve alanında ünlü birçok insanı etkileyen #erkekleryerinibilsin akımı için 5 adet resmi belediye hesabından atılan tweetler incelenmiş ve bu tweetlere karşı atıldıkları günden itibaren 2 hafta içinde atılan kullanıcı yorumları içerik analizi yöntemiyle tablolaştırılarak çözümlenmiştir.

Hannah Arendt y la República de Weimar: una relación oculta
Authors: Sánchez Muñoz Cristina
Published: June 2021

El presente trabajo muestra las relaciones de Hannah Arendt con la República de Weimar a través de su obra. Aunque no hay referencias explícitas a la República, se mantiene la tesis de una presencia implícita —una relación oculta— que se muestra en la tematización de relevantes aspectos del análisis arendtiano. En este sentido, se ofrece un análisis en primer lugar de las influencias filosóficas del contexto de Weimar, especialmente de su maestro Jaspers. A continuación, se examinan los problemas que arrastraba la República de Weimar: la cuestión judía y el declive del Estado nación. Ambos problemas desembocan en la falta de solución a los derechos de las minorías. Por último, se exponen las ideas de Arendt sobre los consejos populares como sistema político, presente en el nacimiento de la República, pero también en otros momentos históricos, así como en otras tradiciones políticas. El trabajo acaba señalando la apuesta federalista de Arendt, conectada a los consejos populares.
Heinrich von Stackelberg y el nacionalsocialismo: una corrección necesaria
Authors: Baumert Thomas
Published: June 2021

El presente artículo analiza la relación del economista Heinrich von Stackelberg (que desempeñó un papel fundamental en el desarrollo de la ciencia económica en España) con el nacionalsocialismo, partido en el que militó desde 1931. La documentación consultada —en su gran mayoría inédita hasta la fecha, incluyendo el acta de desnazificación de von Stackelberg— demuestra que a partir de 1936 se distanció progresiva y rotundamente del régimen hitleriano y del partido nacionalsocialista. A su llegada a España en 1943 von Stackelberg había pasado a colaborar activamente en la resistencia contra Hitler, estando estrechamente vinculado a quienes planificaron y ejecutaron el atentado contra el Führer del 20 de julio de 1944 en la llamada «Operación Valquiria».
Transparencia externa y redes sociales. Los roles diferenciales de ministerios y organismos públicos estatales en Twitter
Authors: Villodre Juan , Reynaers Anne-Marie
Published: June 2021

El carácter disruptivo de las redes sociales ha puesto de manifiesto dentro de las Administraciones públicas la necesidad de cambio hacia estructuras más flexibles y abiertas. Este fue, entre otros, el argumento que llevó durante la década anterior a la puesta en marcha de procesos de agencialización en el sector público español. Por ello, cabría esperar que la adopción de este tipo de tecnologías digitales en agencias estatales hubiese generado usos más orientados hacia la transparencia, participación y colaboración. En ese sentido, en este artículo se pretende estudiar hasta qué punto existen diferencias entre organismos públicos estatales y ministerios en relación con su provisión de información pública en Twitter. Para ello, se ha llevado a cabo la monitorización de la actividad de entidades del sector público institucional estatal y de los ministerios a través de la red social Twitter. Los datos han sido analizados a través del empleo de una taxonomía especializada para datos de Twitter. Los resultados muestran una cierta tendencia de los organismos públicos estatales a ser partícipes activos de la difusión de información pública, y de los ministerios a ser objeto pasivo de la difusión.
Determinantes de la percepción de corrupción legislativa en América Latina (1990-2016)
Authors: Benito Sánchez Ana Belén , Mateos Díaz Araceli
Published: June 2021

Este trabajo identifica los cambios y continuidades en la percepción de la corrupción legislativa en América Latina en el periodo 1990-‍2016. A partir de los datos de opinión del proyecto «Varieties of Democracy» de la Universidad de Gotemburgo y el Instituto Kellogg, se explora el peso que podrían tener variables partidistas e institucionales sobre la percepción de la existencia de actividades ilícitas en los legislativos latinoamericanos. Los datos revelan que la ausencia de mecanismos de control y fiscalización ejercidos por el órgano legislativo y la jurisdicción ordinaria, la mercantilización de la movilización electoral y el peso de los intereses particularistas frente al bien común, son los factores que incrementan la probabilidad de percibir como corrupta la labor parlamentaria.
Grand Corruption in the Contracting Out of Public Services: Lessons from a Pilot Study in Colombia
Authors: Keefer Philip , Roseth Benjamin
Published: June 2021

Do targeted transparency interventions reduce corrupt behavior when corrupt actors are few and politically influential; their behavior imposes small costs on numerous individuals; and corrupt behavior is difficult to observe? Results from a study of informal audits and text messages to parents, meant to curb corruption in the School Meals Program of Colombia, suggests that they can. Theory is pessimistic that transparency interventions can change the behavior of actors who exert significant influence over supervisory authorities. Moreover, inherent methodological obstacles impede the identification of treatment effects. Results substantiate the presence of these obstacles, especially considerable spillovers from treated to control groups. Despite spillovers, we find that parental and operator behavior are significantly different between treatment and control groups. Additional evidence explains why operator behavior changed: out of concern that systematic evidence of corrupt behavior would trigger enforcement actions by high-level enforcement agencies outside of the political jurisdictions where they are most influential.
Liquidity or Capital?: The Impacts of Easing Credit Constraints in Rural Mexico
Authors: Aparicio Gabriela , Bobić Vida , De Olloqui Fernando , Fernández Diez María Carmen , Gerardino María Paula , Mitnik Oscar A. , Vargas Macedo Sebastian
Published: June 2021

This paper evaluates the effectiveness of easing credit constraints for rural producers in Mexico through loans provided by a national public development finance institution. In contrast to most of the existing literature, the study focuses on the effect of medium-sized loans over a two- to four-year time horizon. This paper looks at the effects of such loans on production and investment decisions, input use, and yields. Using a multiple treatment methodology, it explores the differential impacts of providing liquidity for working capital versus providing credit for investments in fixed assets. It finds that loans increased the likelihood that producers grow and sell certain key annual crops, in particular among recipients of working capital loans. It also finds significant effects on production value and sales (per hectare), with similar impacts for recipients of both types of loans, with gains in yields driven by changes in labor quality and more intensive use of key inputs. There is no evidence of significant effects on the purchase of large machinery, but there are impacts on the acquisition of cattle. Overall, the results reported in this paper suggest that lack of liquidity is at least as important as lack of funding for new investment in capital for rural producers in Mexico. Producers benefit from easing their credit constraints, regardless of the type of loan used for that purpose.

Od zniemczania relatywnego do kompensatoryjnego. Adaptacyjne koncepcje ksenofonów na przykładzie standardowego języka niemieckiego

Odziaływanie języków na siebie nie jest zjawiskiem nowym, niemniej inkorporacja obcego słownictwa była dotąd procesem długofalowym, obejmującym wszystkie płaszczyzny języka. W reportażach i serwisach informacyjnych zaczęły pojawiać się nazwy własne z całego świata, a wraz z nimi problem ich językowej adaptacji w użyciu publicznym i w kontekście języka-biorcy. Artykuł przedstawia koncepcje zniemczania w kontekście halleńskich prac ortoepicznych.

 

Die Wechselwirkung zwischen den Sprachen ist keine neue Erscheinung. Die Inkorporierung fremden Wortgutes ist ein langwieriger Adaptionsprozess, der sich auf alle sprachlichen Ebenen erstreckt. Dies änderte sich mit der Entstehung des Rundfunks. In ihren Berichterstattungen aus aller Welt tauchen fremdsprachige Eigennamen auf. Dies führt zum normphonetischen Problem, wie mit ihnen im Satzzusammenhang der Nehmersprache in der öffentlichen Sprechkommunikation umgangen werden sollte. Der Beitrag geht auf verschiedene Eindeutschungskonzepte im Kontext der aktuellen Orthoepieforschung an der Abteilung Sprechwissenschaft und Phonetik in Halle ein.
„Franz heiße ich auch, da scheint die Kanaille nicht weit; im Augenblick überzeugt es fast mich selbst“. Ein unerkannter Fall von Traditionsverhalten in der Literatur der klassischen Moderne: Schillers Räuber (1781) in Kafkas Urteil (1912)
Authors: Pittrof Thomas

„Też nazywam się Franz, niezbyt to odległe od kanalii, już prawie się do tego przekonałem”. Nieznany przypadek odniesienia do tradycji w klasycznym modernizmie. Zbójcy Schillera (1781) i Wyrok (1912) Kafki

W lecie 2020 r. zmarł Jochen Schmidt (ur. 1938), jeden z najwybitniejszych niemieckich germanistów. Zasłynął dzięki studiom nad twórczością Hölderlina, Kleista, Goethego i Musila. Jego wielokrotnie wznawiana, dwutomowa Historia Geniuszu (Geschichte des Genie-Gedankens) była impulsem do powstania obszernego komentarza do dzieł zebranych Nietzschego. Do tej pory zwykle pomijano fakt, że jego ostatnia książka, będąca rozrachunkiem z kultem Nietzschego i jego Wolą mocy (Wille zur Macht), zawiera rozdział poświęcony Kafce (Schmidt 95-100). Schmidt odsłania w nim ślady Woli mocy w opowiadaniu Wyrok (Das Urteil). W swojej analizie walki między ojcem i synem dostarcza jednak niezbyt przekonującej wykładni postaci ojca jako figuracji, która spełnia funkcję „preegzystencjalną” i nadrzędną w stosunku do Georga Bendemanna. Niniejszy artykuł odnosi się wprawdzie do starszych badań na twórczością Kafki, otwiera jednak zupełnie nową perspektywę. Po raz pierwszy dramat Schillera Zbójcy (Die Räuber) został tu potraktowany jako pretekst dla opowiadania Kafki, a jego sens jest interpretowany jako koherentne przedstawienie wewnętrznej symulacji procesu emancypacji.

 

Im Sommer 2020 starb mit dem Germanisten Jochen Schmidt (Jg. 1938) einer der herausragendsten Vertreter seines Fachs in Deutschland. Bekannt wurde Schmidt neben seinen Studien zu Hölderlin, Kleist, Goethe und Musil sowie einem von ihm angestoßenen umfangreichen Kommentar zu Nietzsches Gesamtwerk besonders durch seine mehrfach aufgelegte, zweibändige Geschichte des Genie-Gedankens. Dass das letzte von ihm vollendete Buch, eine Abrechnung mit dem Kult um Nietzsche und dessen „Willen zur Macht“, auch ein Kapitel über Kafka (Schmidt 2016, 95-110) enthält, ist bisher kaum wahrgenommen worden. In diesem Kapitel legt Schmidt Spuren des „Willens zur Macht“ in Kafkas Erzählung Das Urteil frei, gelangt jedoch in der Analyse des Kampfes zwischen Vater und Sohn am Ende zu einer nicht überzeugenden Deutung der Vatergestalt als Figuration einer Georg Bendemann vorgängigen und ihr überlegenen „Präexistenz“. Unter Einbezug der älteren Kafka-Forschung setzt der nachfolgende Beitrag hier neu an: Indem er erstmals Schillers Schauspiel Die Räuber als Prätext für Kafkas Erzählung identifiziert, erschließt er deren Sinngestalt als kohärenter Darstellung der inneren Simulation eines Emanzipationsprozesses.

Rozdział poświęcony cyrkowi w powieści Tomasza Manna Wyznania hochsztaplera Feliksa Krulla stanowi punkt wyjścia do rozważań na temat powinowactwa między sztuką cyrkową i hochsztaplerstwem. Artystyczne pokazy, podczas których wykonawcy podejmują śmiertelne ryzyko, skłaniają Feliksa Krulla do głębokich antropologicznych i estetycznych rozważań: Czy artyści cyrkowi, którzy igrają ze śmiercią i swoje ciała doprowadzają do granic fizycznych możliwości, oraz klowni rzucający wyzwanie prawom i normom są jeszcze ludźmi? Czy cyrkowe wrażenia i sadystyczną ciekawość publiczności można odpowiednio opisać za pomocą kategorii estetycznych? Typowy dla pokazów cyrkowych ekstremalny charakter lekceważenia konwencji ma wiele wspólnego z hochsztaplerstwem. Co różni obydwa zjawiska?

 

Am Beispiel des Zirkuskapitels in Thomas Manns Roman Die Bekenntnisse des Hochstaplers Felix Krull untersucht der Beitrag die Affinität von Zirkus und Hochstapelei. Angesichts des tödlichen Risikos der artistischen Darbietungen gerät Felix Krull in tiefsinnige anthropologische und ästhetische Grübeleien: sind Artisten, die so bereitwillig ihr Leben aufs Spiel setzen, die ihrem Körper das Äußerste abverlangen, die mit clowneskem Übermut den Gesetzen der Norm trotzen, überhaupt Menschen? Sind die Sensationen des Zirkus und die sadistische Schaulust des Publikums noch mit den Begriffen der Ästhetik angemessen zu fassen? In seiner Missachtung der Konvention hat der Extremismus der zirzensischen Darbietung eine große Affinität zur eigenen Hochstapelei. Worin unterscheiden sie sich?
„Gesetzt, du kenntest den Titel des Bildes nicht“: zu Navid Kermanis Umgang mit sakralen Bildern

„Załóżmy, że nie znasz tytułu obrazu”: obrazy sakralne w tekstach Navida Kermaniego

Wydaną w 2015 r. książkę Navida Kermaniego Ungläubiges Staunen. Über das Christentum można odczytać przede wszystkim jako próbę wykreowania nowego języka religijnego i powstrzymania dominującej we współczesnej literaturze marginalizacji religii jako zjawiska wyłącznie historycznego, estetycznego lub ekskluzywnego. Ta tendencja, określana przez Bruno Latoura mianem ikonoklazmu, prowadzi do zaniku umiejętności opisywania doświadczeń religijnych. Kermani odwołuje się w swoich refleksjach na temat obrazów sakralnych głównie do malarskiej tradycji katolickiego baroku i tworzy strategię pisarską, która ma na celu uwolnienie ich od dominujących obecnie interpretacji zarówno konfesyjnych, jak i świeckich. W przekraczaniu granicy między obydwoma mediami – obrazem i tekstem – i traktowaniu ich w sposób łączny upatruje on możliwość dotarcia do nieczytelnego dla współczesnego odbiorcy przeżycia religijnego oraz odtworzenia go w języku zakorzenionym w świecie jego doświadczeń, wyobrażeń i emocji.

 

Kermanis aufsehenerregendes Buch Ungläubiges Staunen. Über das Christentum (2015), das in den letzten Jahren 14 Auflagen erlebte, ist in erster Linie ein Versuch, eine neue religiöse Sprache zu schaffen. Mit deren Hilfe sucht er die vorherrschende Tendenz zu überwinden, die Bruno Latour „Bildstürmerei“ nennt. Sie sei natürliche Konsequenz der bisherigen rationalistischen Religionskritik, die zur Folge hat, dass das religiöse Sprechen entweder an Bedeutung verloren hat oder als exklusives Phänomen behandelt wird. Indem Kermani auf die vorwiegend barock-katholische Bildtradition zurückgreift, entwickelt er eine Schreibstrategie, die zum Ziel hat, die bekannten religiösen Bilder, zunächst von bestehenden konfessionellen und profan-ästhetischen Deutungen zu befreien. In einem die Grenze zwischen den zwei Medien überschreitenden Annäherungsprozess bemüht er sich dann, ihnen verborgene Inhalte abzugewinnen und sie in einer für die Gegenwart adäquaten Sprache wiederzugeben, die in der Erfahrungs- und Vorstellungswelt des modernen Menschen fest angesiedelt ist.

Co woda robi z nami? Rozumienie wody w wielobiegunowej wspólnocie anglosaskiej

Woda jest tak wszechobecna, tak niezbędna i tak nieunikniona, że uważa się ją za rzecz oczywistą. Pomimo że naukowcy wciąż odkrywają nowe fascynujące fakty o wodzie, jej składzie i formie, w powszechnym wyobrażeniu woda pozostaje podstawowym, ‘prostym’, ‘elementarnym doświadczeniem’. Woda przyciąga nas i odpycha; wzbudza strach. Jakie są narracje o wodzie w języku angielskim? Jak ją rozumiemy? Celem artykułu jest całościowe i dokładne zbadanie różnorodnych, skomplikowanych i odmiennych sposobów rozumienia wody i relacji do niej przez ‘społeczność anglojęzyczną’, rozumianą jako zróżnicowana społeczność wielobiegunowa, żyjąca na całym świecie. Badanie „angielskiej wody” prowadzi od Szkocji po Australię, od Biblii po korpusy internetowe, od kanadyjskich uroczystości jezior do pożarów lasów w Kalifornii.
Digital Literacy Skills for Family History Research
Authors: Wilkinson Jaci , Bond Natalie
Published: June 2021

Objective – In this case study, an archivist and librarian teamed up to teach an introductory course on family history research for adult learners at their university’s lifelong learning centre. In response to students’ relative lack of digital skills, the instructors developed a new set of introductory skills that they believe are essential for genealogy research.
Methods – Authors conducted pre- and post-course surveys to determine student expectations and the extent to which the course met those expectations. Authors coded one of these surveys.
Results – Course assessment and class activities exposed the need for a set of digital skills that go beyond a literacy framework to assist family history researchers. After analyzing key themes found in pre- and post-course assessment, authors developed a new tool for genealogy instructors titled Introductory Digital Skills and Practices in Genealogy (IDSG).
Conclusion – Archivist/librarian collaborations are an excellent way to cultivate needs-based teaching and outreach opportunities in our wider communities, particularly for adult learners. The Introductory Digital Skills and Practices in Genealogy tool is meant to inspire and assist other library professionals who want to teach family history research, serving as a reminder to centre teaching tangible digital skills as a focal point of instruction.

The role of primary care pharmacists in the response to the Zika epidemic
Authors: Santos-Pinto Cláudia B. , Osorio-de-Castro Claudia S. , Ferreira Larissa M. , Miranda Elaine S.
Published: June 2021

Background: Zika virus (ZIKV) infection emerged in Brazil in 2015, leading to the declaration of a national public health emergency, mainly due to its consequences for pregnant women and newborn babies. The Zika epidemic demanded major efforts from the public health system to address the full range of disease consequences.

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the role of Primary Health Care pharmacists working in the city of Campo Grande in the State of Mato Grosso do Sul.

Methods: A qualitative cross-sectional interview-based study with pharmacists working in municipal Primary Health Care services was carried out to investigate knowledge about the disease and involvement in the response to the health emergency. Informed consent was obtained. After coding, the corpus underwent thematic analysis.

Results: The data show that few professionals had received specific training in public health. Knowledge largely encompassed disease transmission by the mosquito and collective and individual preventive measures. Findings highlight knowledge gaps relating to signs and symptoms, diagnosis, consequences of infection, and the role of epidemiological surveillance. Most professionals mentioned at least one of the recommendations on the use of medicines in symptom management protocols. The practical implications surrounding knowledge gaps and misconceptions were reflected in pharmacists´ role in response, restricted to counselling on preventive measures. Few respondents participated in institutional groups and committees or in multiprofessional teams involving case management.

Conclusions: The study identified important knowledge gaps and showed that the involvement of pharmacy professionals in the response to the Zika epidemic was timid or inadequate. The results also suggest that pharmacists failed to recognize their role in interventions related to the ZIKV epidemic. Findings highlight the need to increase the involvement of primary care pharmacists in community-based actions, for communication and reduction of health risks, and emergency preparedness and response.
Reflection on Professionalism: Retrospective Review of Health Professional Student Reflections
Authors: Parsa Betsabeh , Murphy Sue , Drynan Donna , Jarus Tal
Published: June 2021

Professionalism is one of the core competencies for occupational and physical therapists. However, difficulty in providing clear definitions of core professional values and behaviours makes professionalism a complex concept to teach. Most proposed frameworks for defining the concept are theoretical or have focused on the academics’ and clinicians’ perspectives; evidence from students’ experiences is lacking. The purpose of this study was to develop a framework to define the concept of professionalism from occupational therapy (OT) and physical therapy (PT) students’ perspectives through analysis of their reflections. The study was a retrospective content analysis of OT and PT students’ reflections completed during clinical placements from 2014-2015 academic years. Sixty students (30 PT and 30 OT) were randomly sampled and one anonymized reflection of each of these students was selected. The qualitative content analysis was initiated by applying a deductive approach using previously presented frameworks to define professionalism. Four themes emerged which resulted in a new framework to define professionalism from students’ perspectives. The emergent themes included the effect of context, the relational dimension, personal dimension, and societal dimension. Students considered context an overarching factor influencing all dimensions of professionalism. Although their perceptions of professionalism were comparable to other presented frameworks, they primarily focused on the relational and personal dimensions of professionalism. The results of this study indicate that OT and PT students consider professionalism as a multi-dimensional and context-specific concept. Despite understanding contextual barriers, at this stage of their professional identity development, students tried to adhere to ethics, and professional values and responsibilities.
