O país apresenta altos índices de mortes violentas intencionais, em Alagoas e Maceió a situação não é diferente. Por isso, a partir dos dados disponibilizados pela Secretaria de Estado da Segurança Pública de Alagoas após pedido de acesso à informação, bem como dos dados do Fórum Brasileiro de Segurança Pública e do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística foi realizado um mapeamento dos Crimes Violentos Letais e Intencionais ocorridos por gênero, raça, idade, tipo de instrumento, localização geográfica, dia e hora em Maceió e Alagoas no ano de 2021, preenchendo uma lacuna do Anuário de Segurança Pública, que não apresenta os dados neste detalhamento para as capitais, inclusive com o georreferenciamento das cidades e dos bairros da capital alagoana. Nos resultados observa-se que o principal crime é o homicídio, com o perfil das vítimas sendo jovens negros da faixa etária de 18 a 29 anos, com prevalência em determinadas regiões. Além disto, os negros possuem maior chance de serem vítimas dessas violências que não-negros.
Sicily's Mediterranean Vocation during the 1950s: On the Culture of the Accademia del Mediterraneo
Authors: Lovato Martino
Published: August 2024

This article focuses on the Mediterranean initiatives organized by the Accademia del Mediterraneo, founded at the University of Palermo in 1951. Superposing the histories of Sicily and Italy with those of Europe's relationship with the Arab-Muslim world during the transition from the colonial to the postcolonial age, the Accademia became one of the liveliest cultural institutions supporting the Italian Republic's early foreign policy. It promoted a cooperative political and economic project addressing the Mediterranean countries then emerging or aspiring to independence and aimed to make Palermo “the capital city of the Mediterranean.” The article first reconstructs the Accademia's institutional history in the context of Italy's “Mediterranean vocation” in foreign policy during the 1950s. It then outlines the salient features of the Mediterranean culture it proposed by surveying the contents of its publications, pointing out the similarities and substantial differences with the Mediterranean culture proposed by Italy's postcolonial thinkers around the 2000s.

Published: August 2024

Predominant motor neuropathy (PMN) encompasses a variety of neuropathies primarily affecting motor nerves, leading to muscle weakness and functional impairment. Identifying the causes of PMN is crucial for diagnosis and treatment planning. Objective: The present study aims to determine the frequency of different causes of predominant motor neuropathy in patients at a tertiary care hospital. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Neurology, Civil Hospital Karachi, from March 27, 2022, to September 27, 2022, following ethical approval from the institutional review board. A total of 139 patients aged 15-70 years, of either sex, diagnosed with PMN were included through non-probability consecutive sampling. Patients with predominant sensory neuropathy or mixed neuropathies were excluded. Data were analyzed using statistical methods to determine the frequency of various causes of PMN, with particular attention to gender and diabetes status. Results: The most frequent cause of neuropathy was Acute Motor Axonal Neuropathy (AMAN) (26.6%), followed by Acute Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (AIDP) (21.58%), Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP) (19.4%), and Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (16.5%). Less common causes included multifocal motor neuropathy (8.6%), porphyria (3.6%), lead intoxication (2.88%), and familial amyloid neuropathy type 2 (0.7%). There were significant differences in the frequency of neuropathy causes based on gender (p = 0.011) and diabetes status (p = 0.006). Conclusion: The study identified Acute Motor Axonal Neuropathy as the most frequent cause of predominant motor neuropathy, followed by Acute Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy. These findings underscore the importance of recognizing specific causes of PMN for appropriate management.
La Psicoterapia y el Trabajo Social Clínico como formas de práctica del Counselling: el Contexto Chileno.
Authors: Alamo Anich Nicolle Anette , Fischersworring Martina
Published: August 2024

Es dable plantear que, desde una perspectiva histórica en el contexto chileno, el ejercicio de la psicoterapia y del trabajo social clínico pueden ser considerados como formas de una práctica del counselling, entendida esta como un campo de acción cuyo objetivo es disminuir el malestar subjetivo y mejorar la calidad de vida de las personas (Wesenberg et al., 2022). En el presente artículo se analizan desde una perspectiva histórica las implicancias culturales de la práctica de la psicoterapia y la intervención social-clínica para el desarrollo de una identidad profesional de las disciplinas tradicionalmente asociadas a ellas (psicología y trabajo social). También se discuten las principales tensiones y desafíos en la definición de los roles y del ejercicio profesional, considerando las posibilidades y limitaciones de cada disciplina, así como su complementariedad. Concluimos que el devenir histórico de la psicoterapia y la intervención social-clínica, en su dimensión cultural, da cuenta de transformaciones a nivel social, de las instituciones y los marcos regulatorios. Dichas transformaciones desafían las prácticas y comprensiones predominantes respecto del quehacer de estas profesiones en un momento dado, poniendo en tensión las identidades profesionales y generando nuevos desafíos a nivel de la formación profesional. En este contexto, es posible que el concepto de counselling como campo de acción que abarca distintas prácticas pueda aportar a evidenciar, y también a aligerar, esas tensiones, tanto respecto del quehacer como de quién ejerce y en qué condiciones.

Published: August 2024

Introduction:

This study assesses the accessibility and nature of parental leave policies during orthopaedic surgery residency training after implementation of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (GME) mandate for 6 weeks of paid parental leave effective July of 2022.

Materials and Methods:

An audit of orthopaedic surgery residency and affiliated GME websites was conducted to assess the accessibility of parental leave policies during the 2023-2024 academic year. Details on length of leave and nature of renumeration during the leave were recorded. Bivariate analyses were conducted to determine residency program characteristics associated with the accessibility of a parental leave policy. Results were compared with a previous analysis during the 2017-2018 academic year.

Results:

A total of 200 residency programs were evaluated, and 152 had parental leave policies (76.0%). Compared with 2017 to 2018, a similar percentage of parental leave policies were accessible on residency program websites (3.0% vs. 2.0%, P = 0.777) but fewer were accessible on GME websites (55.5% vs. 80.7%, P < 0.001). More contemporary policies were obtained from program coordinators (18.5% vs. 7.2%, P = 0.003), and more were not available (24.0% vs. 9.0%, P < 0.001). Most policies offered renumeration (86.7%) and leave for 6 weeks in length (75.0%). A higher prevalence of parental leave policy accessibility was found among orthopaedic residency programs with university affiliation (P < 0.001), more faculty members (P = 0.008) and residents (P = 0.017), a higher percentage of female faculty (P = 0.008), affiliation with a top 50 ranked National Institutes of Health–funded orthopaedic surgery department, and accreditation achieved before 2017 to 2018 (P = 0.004).

Discussion:

Most orthopaedic surgery residency programs do not have accessible parental leave policies on their websites. The new Accreditation Council for GME mandate will require orthopaedic residency programs to provide residents with 6 weeks of paid parental leave during residency training. Accessible policies may be useful to applicants interested in child rearing during orthopaedic residency training.

Anxiety, stress and depression are exceedingly comorbid psychological illnesses that the predominance will expand to the second most important risk of morbidity and sociodemographic burden. Due to several side-effects of chemical drugs, numerous specialists and patients prefer complementary herbal therapies like Ginkgo Biloba Extracts (GBE) to medicate the illnesses. In this review, we summarized the antidepressant, anxiolytic and antistress properties of GBE. We perceived that GBE could be beneficial for treatment of these disorders. Although experience of repeated studies on models and humans have proved reliability of antidepressant properties of GBE, further clinical trials are still required to validate the anti-stress and anti-anxiety effects of GBE on humans.

Published: August 2024

This research advances the discussion on efficiency within the context of democratic accountability, drawing on Deborah Stone's framework and various scholarly contributions. It explores the connection between expert accountability, citizen participation, and the role of governance structures in upholding democratic integrity. It questions the traditional separation of politics and administration, advocating for a more varied approach to efficiency. Through a review of 53 scholarly articles, this study identifies four primary dimensions of efficiency: policy impact assessment, inclusivity in goal setting, acknowledgment of political and social factors, and adaptability in policy making. The analysis points to a shared focus on assessing policy impacts and identifies a gap in addressing inclusivity. The study promotes a governance model emphasizing adaptability, equity, sustainability, and alignment with societal values, suggesting a revised concept of efficiency that adheres to Stone's principles and is suitable for modern democratic frameworks.

DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION AND COPYRIGHT AS FIDUCIARY SECURITY: LEGAL, ECONOMIC AND TECHNOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVES
Authors: Haspada Deny
Published: August 2024

This study explores the viability of using copyright as fiduciary collateral in the digital era, focusing on the legal and technological challenges that arise. The research aims to understand how digital transformation affects the application of copyright as collateral and to identify the legal and technical obstacles involved. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining qualitative legal analysis with quantitative data from industry surveys and case studies. The findings indicate that while the concept of copyright as collateral is theoretically viable, significant legal and technological barriers hinder its practical implementation. Key challenges include the ambiguity of legal frameworks, the complexity of valuing digital copyrights, and the risks associated with digital piracy and infringement. The study concludes that for copyright to be effectively used as fiduciary collateral, there needs to be a harmonization of international legal standards and advancements in technology to secure and manage digital rights. These findings have important implications for policymakers, legal practitioners, and financial institutions, suggesting the need for reforms and innovations to support the use of intellectual property in financial transactions.

Ketentuan pidana dalam undang-undang Pemilihan Umum (Pemilu) terus bertambah karena ada perbuatan yang belum diatur sebagai tindak pidana pemilu sebelumnya. Pada undang-undang Pemilu 2004 dan 2009, diatur tentang hukum acara serta batas waktu penegakan hukum pidana pemilu. Ketua Bawaslu, Kapolri, dan Jaksa Agung telah membuat Nota Kesepakatan Bersama membentuk Sentra Penegakan Hukum Terpadu (Sentra Gakkumdu) yang terdiri dari Kepolisian, Kejaksaan, dan Panwaslu. Sentra Gakkumdu ini dibentuk di tingkat pusat, provinsi, dan kabupaten/kota untuk mengefektifkan penanganan tindak pidana pemilu sesuai prinsip peradilan yang cepat, sederhana, biaya ringan, bebas, jujur, dan tidak memihak. Penelitian hukum yuridis sosiologis dilakukan untuk menganalisis sumber data dan melakukan wawancara guna mengungkap masalah yang terjadi, pola koordinasi antara Panwaslu dan Sentra Gakkumdu, serta penanganan laporan pelanggaran tindak pidana pemilu. Ternyata, banyak kasus yang diteruskan Panwaslu ke Sentra Gakkumdu dinyatakan bukan tindak pidana pemilu, tidak cukup bukti, atau waktu penyelesaian melebihi batas. Koordinasi antara Panwaslu dan Sentra Gakkumdu berjalan baik, tetapi penegakan hukum pemilu 2009 gagal karena laporan dari Panwaslu harus dikaji kembali oleh Sentra Gakkumdu sebelum diteruskan ke penyidik. Oleh karena itu, sebaiknya undang-undang pemilu menguatkan posisi Sentra Gakkumdu sebagai lembaga sentral penegakan hukum pidana pemilu, bukan lagi pada Panwaslu.

Published: August 2024

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi financial distress pada perusahaan. Berdasarkan analisis data yang telah dilakukan, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa kepemilikan institusional memiliki pengaruh negatif terhadap financial distress. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa semakin besar kepemilikan institusional dalam suatu perusahaan, semakin kecil kemungkinan perusahaan tersebut mengalami financial distress. Sebaliknya, proporsi dewan komisaris independen memiliki pengaruh positif terhadap financial distress, yang mengindikasikan bahwa semakin tinggi proporsi dewan komisaris independen, semakin besar kemungkinan perusahaan mengalami financial distress. Selain itu, komite audit juga ditemukan memiliki pengaruh positif terhadap financial distress, yang berarti bahwa keberadaan dan aktivitas komite audit justru meningkatkan kemungkinan terjadinya financial distress dalam perusahaan. Hasil-hasil ini memberikan wawasan penting bagi manajemen perusahaan dan pemangku kepentingan dalam mengelola struktur kepemilikan dan tata kelola perusahaan untuk meminimalkan risiko financial distress.

Published: August 2024

In this study, surfactant-free quaternary copper zinc tin sulfide (CZTS) nanostructures were successfully synthesized using two different chalcogen/sulfur precursors by hydrothermal method. The effects of different sulfur sources such as thiourea (TU) and thioacetamide (TAA) on the structural, functional, and morphological properties were investigated. XRD analysis revealed that pure phase of kesterite CZTS nanostructures were found at higher concentrations of thiourea. Raman studies proved the existence of the phase purity of CZTS at TU-10. Morphological investigation of CZTS nanostructures showed different morphologies such as spherical-like, rose flower-like, and plate-like structures, at different concentrations of thiourea. Structural and morphological studies confirmed that the formation of single-phase CZTS nanostructures was possible at higher concentrations of TU. HRTEM analysis of CZTS TU-10 confirmed that the lattice value of 0.31 nm corresponded to the (112) plane and the SAED pattern exhibited a polycrystalline nature. EDS mapping of CZTS nanostructures confirmed its uniform distribution. The optical bandgap of CZTS TU-10 was found to be 1.52 eV. XPS results revealed Cu2+, Zn2+, Sn4+, and S2- oxidation states for CZTS TU-10. Cyclic voltammetry of CZTS TU-10 showed the pseudocapacitive nature and the specific capacitance of 389 Fg-1 at 10 mV/s. Furthermore, the photocatalytic activity of the surfactant-free CZTS TU-10 nanostructures was tested using methylene blue (MB) and crystal violet (CV) degradation under visible light irradiation, and the maximum photodegradation efficiencies achieved were at 89% and 93%, respectively, at 70 min. Furthermore, antibacterial studies confirmed that CZTS TU-10 nanostructures produced a high zone of inhibition against Vibrio parahaemolyticus. The results implied that the CZTS nanostructures could be considered efficient for energy storage and photocatalytic application.
