Development Asymmetries in the Tijuana-San Diego Region: Reflections on a Historical Dependence
Authors: Regalado Jacobo Hugo J. , Azviaury-Hernández Raúl , Monjaraz Sandoval José de Jesús Alejandro
Published: January 2025

The Tijuana-San Diego transborder region intrigues us due to its transversal and asymmetrical relationships. The development in the border region between Mexico and the United States has a turbulent origin since the signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which divides spaces that were once part of the same territory. This study aims to identify the origins of asymmetrical development on Mexico's northern border from a critical perspective. It examines this territorial boundary at two pivotal moments for development: the division and constitution of the California’s, 1848, and the Volstead Act (Prohibition Law), 1919. This analysis reveals a divergent space that shapes processes of constant dependence and transversal relationships characterized by unequal territorial activities in a transnational core-periphery relation, also known as semi-periphery.
Crítica pedagógica de la traducción: evaluación de problemas en los aspectos intra e interlingüísticos en dos versiones de “My mother” de Jamaica Kincaid
Authors: Velasco Zárate Kalinka
Published: January 2025

La capacidad de crítica es indispensable en la formación de traductores literarios y, junto con la subcompetencia bilingüística, estratégica, traductora y actitudinal, es fundamental para emitir juicios valorativos que deriven del análisis, evaluación y reflexión tanto del proceso de traducción como de su producto (Zierer, 1979; Rodríguez Rodríguez, 1999; Hurtado Albir, 2019). Siguiendo a Pilar Elena García (1997; 1999), se presenta la crítica pedagógica de dos traducciones al español del cuento “My mother” de Jamaica Kincaid (At the bottom of the River, 2013 [1983]): la del traductor Alejandro Pérez Viza, publicada por Txalaparta en 2007, y la elaborada por la autora, de la cual se presentan solo algunos fragmentos relevantes para el análisis. Esta crítica aborda tres aspectos problemáticos para la traducción identificados en el texto origen (TO) que atañen a categorías del nivel sintáctico–semántico, como Tiempo y Aspecto, y del discurso, como Cohesión; asimismo se consideran algunas tendencias deformantes del estilo (Berman, 1991 [1985]; 1995).

Cihikeu Village, Sarampad Village, Cianjur Regency, is an earthquake area. From the initial survey of several residential houses in Cihikeu Village, several of the residential houses that experienced minor damage were buildings with stilt structures and woven bamboo/wood walls. Meanwhile, the houses that suffered heavy damage due to the earthquake were walled buildings. The change in the form of residential buildings in Cihikeu Village, Cianjur, which were originally structures on stilts to become permanent buildings with walls, raises the question: What factors were behind them making this change? This research uses qualitative methods, namely observation and interviews to determine changes in building shape and what factors influence these changes in shape. The results of the research resulted in changes in the shape of the building in Cihikeu Village, it experienced heavy damage caused by several things, namely: economic factors, maintenance factors and insight factors from the external environment. The impact of the earthquake where residents received assistance from certain foundations caused residents to add bathrooms, where currently residents use public bathrooms.

Published: January 2025

One communication medium that is well-known for its outstanding and reliable performance is fiber optic. A social example of its application is the Fiber to the Home (FTTH) network. The goal of this study is to evaluate the signal quality of the customer base method and the branching method, two FTTH-building techniques based on the PT.PLN Icon Plus standards, in order to identify the most practical approach for use in the Air Hitam 2 cluster. Two scenarios were used in this study at the Fiber Access Terminal (FAT) with 1:16 and 1:8 splitters. The fiber optic cable path design findings demonstrate that the branching approach is a wise decision, utilizing optical fiber cables for a total of 9 Km, with the greatest cable distance being 2.5 Km from the Optical Line Terminal (OLT) to the end FAT. According to theory, in the 1:16 splitter situation and the 1:8 splitter scenario, the optical power received by the Optical Network Terminal (ONT) is -19.13 dBm and -16.03 dBm, respectively, with an OLT transmit power of 3 dBm. For these cases, the simulation results are -17.98 dBm and -20.27 dBm. Additionally, the budget value for the rising time reaches 0.253 ns. The bit error rate values in the 1:16 and 1:8 splitter scenarios are 3.157 × 10-10, and 1.63507 × 10-28, respectively, while the Q factor values are 6.18233 and 11.014, respectively. Based on theory and simulation, these findings suggest that the branching strategy can deliver good performance.

The Kuala Lumpur-Karak Highway (KL-KH) is a key route connecting Kuala Lumpur to the East Coast states of Peninsular Malaysia. It passes through three distinct geological formations: the Kuala Lumpur Granite, Genting Sempah Complex, and Bentong Raub Suture Zone. These formations feature unique rock mineral compositions and microstructures that influence the strength and behavior of rock masses. This study used X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) to analyze the mineralogical properties of plutonic and volcanic rock samples from the highway. The plutonic sample from KM29 (GKM29) consists of quartz, muscovite, and albite, while the volcanic sample from KM93 (LKM93) is rhyolite, containing quartz, albite, muscovite, and biotite. While both samples share similar minerals, they differ in texture, mineral proportions, and carbon content. The GKM29 sample has a more granular texture, while the LKM93 sample is finer. These differences in mineral composition and texture affect the mechanical properties of the rocks, including strength and durability, which are crucial for slope stability. Understanding these variations is essential for assessing slope stability and potential geological hazards along the highway. This study emphasizes the importance of early geological assessments for effective slope management and road safety, enabling better planning and maintenance strategies.
Does orthognathic surgery affect tooth root length and volume: a retrospective cohort study
Authors: Erdem Merve Ece , Irgın Celal
Published: January 2025

Objectives

To examine tooth root length and root volume in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images in patients with skeletal Class II and III anomalies who have undergone single-jaw (SJ) and double-jaw (DJ) orthognathic surgery, and to compare the changes between jaws with and without osteotomy.

Materials and Methods

This study was conducted on the archive records of a total of 60 adults: 36 women and 24 men with an average age of 21.1 ± 3.1 years, whose CBCT images were recorded just before orthognathic surgery and within 6–12 months after surgery. The sample was divided into four groups with 15 individuals in each: Class II SJ (mandibular advancement only), Class II DJ (maxillary advancement and impaction with mandibular advancement), Class III SJ (maxillary advancement and impaction), and Class III DJ (maxillary advancement and impaction with mandibular setback).

Results

Within groups, statistically significant decreases in root length and root volume were found in the period between preorthognatic and postorthognathic surgery (P < .05). No statistically significant differences were found in comparisons between groups (P > .05).

Conclusions

Regardless of the type of skeletal anomaly in the sagittal direction and the orthognathic surgery performed, a statistically significant but clinically insignificant decrease was found in tooth root length and root volume during the postorthognathic surgery period, both in jaws with and without osteotomy.

Published: January 2025

Clonal haematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is associated with macrovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease and stroke. However, the effects of CHIP on microvascular complication have not been evaluated in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study included 20,712 T2D participants without prevalent diabetic microvascular complication (DMCs) and hematologic malignancy at baseline. CHIP and related phenotypes were identified using whole exome sequencing derived from peripheral blood samples. The incidence of DMCs defined as a composite of diabetic kidney disease, diabetic retinopathy, or diabetic neuropathy. Associations of any CHIP with incident DMCs and subtypes were assessed using Cox regression. Gene-specific analyses also conducted to determine the effect of mutated driver genes with DMCs. During a median follow-up of 13.0 years, 5,673 participants developed DMCs. Any CHIP was associated with high risk of DMCs (HR, 1.23; 95% CI, 1.10-1.38; P<0.001), specifically, diabetic retinopathy (HR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.13-1.57; P=0.001) and diabetic kidney disease (HR, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.10-1.45; P=0.001), but not diabetic neuropathy. Gene-specific analyses suggested that DNMT3A, TET2, NF1, and Spliceosome genes were associated with risk of developing DMCs. CHIP increases the risk of developing DMCs in individuals with T2D, independently of other risk factors. These findings offered potential implications for the prevention and management of DMCs.

Authors: Prakosa Hendri Kurniawan , Ibad Hasan Nurul , Anwar Saiful
Published: January 2025

Monitoring health is essential for early disease detection, prevention, and managing chronic conditions. Active tracking empowers patients to make informed decisions and adhere to treatments, improving outcomes. However, fragmented medical records across facilities can lead to incomplete information. Integrating records through interoperable systems provides patients and providers with a comprehensive health overview, ensuring continuity, reducing redundancies, and enhancing collaboration. Centralized health data enables better monitoring for patients and more personalized, efficient care from healthcare professionals.
This study focuses on developing a prototype for data exchange implementation using the FHIR-HL7 standard in a Personal Health Record (PHR) application. The prototype is tested with selected resources: Patient, Encounter, Observation, and Condition. The data flow involves obtaining patient medical records from an Electronic Health Record (EHR) and displaying them in a Personal Health Record application, ensuring secure access via National Identification Number (NIK) matching as Personal Identification Number.
The approach includes mapping FHIR resources to relevant data structures, modifying both EHR and PHR applications to support the data exchange process. The results demonstrate that patient medical records stored in EHR can be accessed by patients through the PHR apps. Specific FHIR resources enable the exchange of various data types: patient demographics using the Patient resource, diagnoses using the Condition resource, and vital signs (e.g., systolic/diastolic blood pressure, weight, height) using the Observation resource. This prototype highlights the feasibility of integrating FHIR-HL7 standards for interoperable health data exchange, enhancing patient engagement and data accessibility.

Authors: Kadhim Alaa , Cochrane Thomas Cochrane
Published: January 2025

This study investigates the impact of ICT tools on student motivation, specifically examining whether immersive experiences, such as using Google Earth, enhance the understanding of geographical concepts in secondary school geography classes. A mixed-methods survey was conducted with 100 students participating in specific geographical educational activities. The data analysis revealed that using Google Earth significantly influences student motivation. The study found that virtual field trips enhance and increase students' enthusiasm for learning geography. An open-ended questionnaire was administered to 100 students out of a total of 450, revealing a statistically significant improvement in learning outcomes when students engaged in virtual field trips using experimental and self-directed learning strategies. The findings support the importance of experiential and self-directed learning strategies in teaching geography through virtual field trips. Moreover, the integration of ICT tools facilitates a deeper understanding of geographical concepts while fostering a more collaborative, interactive, and immersive learning environment. The study also indicates that student motivation was unaffected by previous ICT tool experience or gender. In light of these findings the study recommends incorporating digital and professional competencies in teacher training to prepare them for designing smart, flexible classrooms that cater to learners' needs in the digital age.

Published: January 2025

Research background: Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is a disruptive technology with great promise for the FinTech industry. The current study focuses on the drivers of GenAI adoption and its consequences for both exploratory and exploitative innovation in FinTech companies.
Purpose of the article: Based on a conceptual model that extends the Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) framework, this study also explores the moderating effect of ethical dilemmas in the relationship between GenAI adoption and innovation, as well as the role of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors in shaping the broader impact of GenAI on organizational practices.
Methods: Data were collected and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) from participants in the Chinese FinTech industry.
Findings & value added: Our empirical findings show that GenAI improves both kinds of innovations and, subsequently, leads to improved organizational performance. However, ethical dilemmas do not significantly affect either of these effects. Moreover, the study suggests that aligning GenAI adoption with ESG goals, such as promoting sustainable practices and ensuring ethical governance, can further enhance long-term performance and stakeholder trust. This study underlines the strategic role of GenAI adoption in driving innovation, advancing ESG objectives, and improving performance in the fast-evolving landscape of FinTech.
The Influence of Intentionality and Inhibitory Control on Forgiveness of Children with Disabilities
Authors:   Alexandru Ioan Cuza University, Iasi, Romania, Rusu Mihai-Cosmin
Published: January 2025

Although a unanimously accepted definition is not found in the literature, most researchers argue that forgiveness involves decreasing negative emotions towards the transgressor, i.e. the person who has broken a norm, decreasing the motivation to hurt them and increasing positive emotions towards them. Our research aimed to investigate the extent to which school children can distinguish between an intentional violation of a classroom norm and an unintentional violation generated by physiological limitations specific to a disability. According to our results, children in the preparatory class understand that certain undesirable behaviors are caused by a disability, in our case, hearing disability, while other behaviors are not. Furthermore, children's decision to play with a transgressor depends on the intentionality of the rule violation, but according to our data, the transgressor's intention to violate a rule did not influence the number of resources that participants provided. We explain these findings through the theoretical framework proposed by McCullough et al. (2013) on the adaptive role of forgiveness and revenge and we analyze the implications that the present research has for the inclusion process of children with special educational needs.

Published: January 2025

This article refers to the topic of psychological (mental/emotional) and social pain in the prediction of suicidality (suicide and its associated behaviors) as an extraordinarily complex and pressing societal and adult educational challenge. The aim of this review article is to present a literature review of the current picture of the evidence regarding the impact of psychological and social pain on suicidal behavior as a societal and adult educational problem. Currently known biological factors are weak predictors of future suicidal behaviors. Psychological pain is a transdiagnostic significant predictive factor of suicidality, even in the absence of a diagnosed depression. Psychological pain has been rarely evaluated or examined in routine practice for suicide reduction. A valid tool to measure social pain is a necessary step in decreasing and minimizing rates of suicidal behavior in an at risk population of socially excluded adults. Additional practical implications for the impact of psychological and social pain on suicidality prediction in the settings of adult education are highly and urgently recommended. The hypothetical impact of different social factors (e.g., immigration status, gender, multiple psychoactive substance use as social norms, general self-efficacy) on the experience of psychological pain will be studied by mixed methods research in the field of sociology in an at risk population of socially excluded adults.
The Impact of the Lack of Chemistry and Physics Laboratories in Schools
Authors:   Palatul Copiilor Sf. Gheorghe, Sfântu Gheorghe, Romania, Kerekes Jenő
Published: January 2025

The deficiency of chemistry and physics laboratories in schools has profound implications for scientific education, as illuminated by a study conducted in Covasna County. Deprived of laboratory access, students lack the opportunity to experiment with chemical and physical phenomena, limiting the application of theoretical knowledge. This shortfall may foster a superficial understanding of the subjects and potentially dampen enthusiasm for science. Moreover, the absence of exposure to laboratory equipment and techniques stunts the cultivation of practical and critical skills crucial for scientific or technical careers, hindering students’ preparation for future pursuits in these fields.
Practical skills and a deep comprehension of scientific principles are indispensable for success in such careers. The absence of laboratory experience may place students at a disadvantage in university admissions or job competitions. It is imperative to implement viable solutions - investments in laboratory infrastructure, additional training for educators, and the development of interactive learning programs compensating for the dearth of practical experience. Integrating modern technology into the educational framework offers alternative avenues for experimentation and practical learning, mitigating the absence of physical laboratories. The study, conducted via an online questionnaire involving 61 school respondents, underscores the adverse impact of lacking chemistry and physics laboratories on students’ learning and development. However, by implementing solutions, the situation can improve, ensuring students receive comprehensive and equitable science education. Addressing this deficit is pivotal in nurturing the next generation of scientists and innovators, equipping them with the skills needed to tackle real-world challenges and contribute to scientific progress.

Respecting the specific state of the Italian Festoon as proposed by Dapporto (2010), its species name must be demnosia Boisduval, 1828 with the type locality ‘San Giórgio a Colónica’ (Dapporto, 2010), which corresponds to Florence in the sense of Mann (1844). The name cassandra Geyer, 1828 has to be considered as a younger synonym of polyxena [Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775 and is not available as a species name for the Italian Festoon. The substitution of the species name cassandra sensu Dapporto (2010) by demnosia Boisduval, 1828 allows furthermore the use of the name cassandra Geyer, 1828, as a forma to denote individual and local forms with strong patterning of Zerynthia polyxena in southern Europe including the populations of southern France and eastern Liguria

SHAPING MINDS THROUGH DISCOURSE: PROPAGANDA NARRATIVES IN MOLDOVA’S 2024 ELECTIONS
Authors:   BABEȘ-BOLYAI UNIVERSITY, NISTOR Roxana-Maria
Published: January 2025

This study analyses the propagandistic narratives and the discursive strategies used by the pro-Russian political parties / groups in the Republic of Moldova during the week preceding the presidential elections and the referendum. The analysis focuses on the ȘOR Party, the PSRM, the PCRM, who have actively used their platforms for the dissemination of anti-European Union narratives and for the promotion of scepticism towards the pro-European government. By using content and discourse analysis, our research identifies the main rhetorical tools, and the main logical fallacies used to manipulate public perception. Building on theoretical frameworks such as the Agenda-Setting Theory and the 4Ds of disinformation, our study manages to uncover the recurrent narratives employed, as well as the efforts of these parties made to exploit the emotional vulnerabilities of their audience, thereby sowing fear, confusion, and disunion
The Resurrection of the Body and the Immortality of the Soul in the Light of the Old Testament Writings and the Work of Philo
Authors:   Faculty of Theology of Lugano

Published: January 2025

Suppose the hope of the Hellenistic world regarding survival in the afterlife can only be reduced to the belief in the soul's immortality (Plato), which has nothing to do with the belief in bodily resurrection. We can say that the only place where we can find the foundation of the belief in the resurrection of the first Christians is the Jewish world; only here the belief in the resurrection could have any chance of being accepted. The Old Testament texts to which we will refer in this article are Is 26:19; Ez 37:5,10,14; Dn 12:2; 2 Mac 7. A great exponent of Alexandrian Judaism who attempted to create a synthesis between the Mosaic faith and Greek philosophy was Philo of Alexandria. Since he does not refer to the bodily resurrection of the dead in his writings, Philo of Alexandria can support the thesis of the soul's immortality.
Borys Liatoshynsky’s Opera The Golden Hoop: History, Versions, Primary Sources
Authors: TUKOVA Iryna , HOMON Tetiana
Published: January 2025

The opera The Golden Hoop (1929, Op. 23) by preeminent Ukrainian composer Borys Liatoshynsky (1895–1968) is one of the most celebrated compositions in Ukrainian music history. The opera’s libretto, written by Yakiv Mamontov (1888–1940) in Ukrainian, is based on Ivan Franko’s (1856–1916) historical novel Zakhar Berkut. The Ukrainian ancient beautiful and tragic love story of Maxim and Myroslava is framed by a larger-scale narrative of great love for the Motherland and one’s compatriots. The opera exists in three versions — the initial 1929 Ukrainian version; the second Ukrainian version from the mid-1960s; and an additional Moscow version dating back to 1930. This article is the first research document that 1) examines the primary sources relating to the history of creation and staging of the first Ukrainian version of The Golden Hoop; 2) investigates the differences between the first Ukrainian and the Moscow versions; and 3) explores the modifications of the first Ukrainian version of the opera as reflected in its second, 1960s version.

Authors: JUHOS-KISS Eszter , SIMON Klára , PUSZTAFALVI Henriette
Published: January 2025

Aims: The aim of the study is to give an overview of the known and less-known methods of music therapy for aphasia and to introduce the reader to our own developed therapeutic method based on folk singing, which is not yet internationally known but is already used in Hungary. Method: Articles from the Hungarian and international literature were studied for the research. We used the PubMed database, supplemented by a traditional library search. Results: We found 8 different aphasia therapy methods based on musical elements, targeting aphasic individuals with relatively good auditory speech understanding and impaired language expression skills. Each method was described as effective in improving some areas of impaired language and speech abilities. Our own therapeutic method has been found to be effective in improving word comprehension. Conclusions: The effectiveness of the methods described is known from measurements on relatively small groups of participants, and further research is needed.
Christian Ceremonial Folk Song. Case Study: Pilgrimage Songs From Nicula Monastery
Authors: MOCANU Daniel
Published: January 2025

In the complex landscape of contemporary Romanian religious music, the last decades have been marked by a phenomenon of crystallization and diffusion of a new musical genre, with deep roots in the popular music tradition. This genre, defined by specific structural, thematic and functional characteristics, has succeeded in imposing itself within the Koinonikon liturgical ritual, in some cases replacing the traditional musical repertoire of the period. Initially, Christian ceremonial folk songs were associated with certain liturgical feasts dedicated to the Virgin Mary, fulfilling an occasional function of marking important moments in the church calendar. Through oral transmission and adaptation to the religious context, these songs entered the collective consciousness and became an integral part of the religious practices of rural communities during pilgrimages. Over time, under the influence of socio-cultural and religious factors, Christian ceremonial folk songs underwent a revalorization and an expansion of their original functions. They have thus gone beyond the strict liturgical ritual of pilgrimages and have been integrated into various forms of cultural and religious expression, such as folksong festivals or religious events: camps, competitions. An emblematic case in this respect are the pilgrimage songs, especially those associated with the Nicula Monastery. These songs, originally intended to accompany pilgrimages to the monastery, have spread nationwide, becoming a symbol of Romanian religious and cultural identity for the musical genre of Christian ceremonial folk songs.
Der Schwanendreher: Paul Hindemith’s Viola Concerto and Its Early Music Influences
Authors: VARVARICHI Leona
Published: January 2025

It is well known that much of Hindemith’s work is significantly influenced by early music, and Hindemith’s compositional style is marked by his use of fugue, ostinato, choral, canon, variations, and cantus firmus techniques. Thus, Sonata No. 5 for viola from cycle op. 11 or the Sonata for viola op. 31 No. 4, but also the Concerto for viola and small orchestra "Der Schwanendreher" are eloquent examples. The first part of this study highlights the musical personality of Paul Hindemith in the socio-political and cultural context of the beginning of the 20th century along with some particularities of his compositional style. I emphasize his interest in and closeness to the music of the Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque eras and the influence that these particularities had on Hindemith’s musical thinking and compositional style. The second part includes the analysis of the Concerto for viola and small orchestra "Der Schwanendreher" in which I have highlighted some of the elements taken from the style of the aforementioned eras that inspired him to compose this work.

Guitar cycle of Heitor Villa-Lobos “Five Preludes” is researched in terms of the national genre traditions of various etymologies – European, African, Indian. At the level of musical language, the interaction of melodic and metro-rythmic features, connection with Portuguese Modinha, Brazilian Choro, Waltz-Choro, Afro-Brazilian Capoeira, Indian chants of the indigenous people of the country are revealed. Adaptive mechanisms of mixing genre elements on the scale of the entire cycle and each of the miniatures are designated. The features of socio-cultural environment of origin, existence of genres, as well as their participation in popular music of urban and rural life, carnival processions and tribal rituals are taken into consideration. References to Villa-Lobos’s personal experience of amateur music-making in the street Choro ensembles and ethnographic expeditions allowed correlating the timbre sound of genres in authentic folk practices with solo guitar version of their academic embodiment. Innovative technical methods of playing the guitar are indicated: shift of the stable fingering configuration along the fingerboard, introduced by the composer to modernize the language of music based on the idiomatic of the instrument. Program dedications are revealed in connection of targeted stylization of the sound atmosphere or the styles of European and Brazilian composers.
