El diagnóstico como estrategia para conocer la presencia de la discapacidad en la Escuela Nacional de Trabajo Social
Authors: Lázaro Jiménez Elía , Silva Montealegre Tomas
Published: April 2024

Referirse a la discapacidad conlleva a conocer el modelo social de la discapacidad, modelo que permite describir la dinámica de la discapacidad desde una mirada social y no médica, como se solía hacer hasta los inicios del siglo XX, el cual ubica que las causas de la discapacidad no son  religiosas ni científicas, sino sociales; pues no son las limitaciones individuales las raíces del problema, sino son las limitaciones de la propia sociedad para prestar servicios apropiados y, así, asegurar que las necesidades de las personas con discapacidad sean tomadas en cuenta dentro de la organización social. Ante ello, el escenario escolar es un ópico que resulta ser importante en el tema de la discapacidad, pues este espacio además de consolidar los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje,consolida las estructuras de las relaciones sociales de la persona; así escuela-discapacidad se torna en una dicotomía donde se referencia el proceso socioeducativo de la persona con discapacidad. Es por ello que el presente artículo muestra la estrategia que siguió el Comité de atención a las personas con discapacidad de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, CAD-UNAM, en la Escuela Nacional de Trabajo Social, permitiendo conocer por primera vez la presencia de las personas con discapacidad, además de dar las bases para la construcción de una Escuela y Universidad Inclusiva. Estrategia que se baso en la construcción de un diagnóstico, el cual permite vislumbrar la naturaleza y magnitud de las necesidades, en este caso permitió debelar la realidad de la presenciade las personas con discapacidad en la Escuela Nacional de Trabajo Social. De esta forma para abordar la discapacidad, así como a las personas con discapacidad dentro de la escuela, resulta trascendental involucrarse en undiálogo dinámico que permita, responder: ¿Qué es la discapacidad? ¿Quiénes son las personas con discapacidad?¿Cómo apoyo a las personas con discapacidad? ¿Pueden las personas con discapacidad trabajar y/o estudiar en la universidad?
Contraste de un modelo de búsqueda laboral en un grupo de exmigrantes mexicanos
Authors: Carreón Guillén Javier
Published: April 2024

Factores económicos relativos a crisis, desempleo, migración, empleo y prosperidad vinculan marcos teóricos que explican factores educativos y sociales en torno a los cuales se han llevado a cabo investigaciones queplantean a la dinámica de grupos como el escenario preponderante de explicación de la travesía y estancia de migrantes así como el retorno y reinserción de ex migrantes. Se llevó a cabo un estudio transversal de septiembre 2012 a marzo 2013 en el que se utilizó una muestra no probabilística de 147 ex migrantes y se construyó, confiabilizó y validó una Escala de Percepciones Laborales para contrastar seis hipótesis de las cuales se aceptaron cinco. La primera hipótesis relativa a la predicción de la búsqueda de empleo a partir de la percepción de capacidades (β = 0,63), esta última fue influida por las demandas percibidas (γ = 0,42) como segundo supuesto contrastado. La tercera hipótesis fue establecida por la incidencia de la percepción de encuadre sobre los riesgos percibidos (γ = 0,38) mientras que tanto la percepción de demandas como los recursos percibidos fueron determinados por el encuadre percibido del mercado laboral (γ = 0,26; γ = 0,51 respectivamente) en los supuestoscinco y seis. Por último, la hipótesis nula fue aceptada ya que los valores del estadístico así como los índices de ajuste y residual evidenciaron el contraste entre las relaciones especificadas y los datos observados [X2 = 3,48 (3 gl) p = 0,000; GFI = 0,975; RMR= 0,001].
Prolegómenos al trabajo social para el desarrollo humano de migrantes
Authors: Carreón Guillén Javier , Limón Domínguez Gerardo Arturo
Published: April 2024

El desarrollo humano de migrantes, entendido como el establecimiento de libertades, oportunidades, capacidades y responsabilidades, está imbricado en sistemas económicos, políticos y sociales. Se trata de un proceso en el que, desde las teorías de Ludwig Von Bertalanffy, Niklas Luhmann y Amartya K. Sen, supone la emergencia de flujos migratorios en función de los flujos económicos.De este modo, la inversión extranjera directa en los países desarrollados está confinada a la composición orgánica del capital que, desde la perspectiva sistémica del desarrollo, implica flujos migratorios que hacenposible la neguentropía en los países emergentes.En este escenario, Javier Carreón Guillén y Gerardo Arturo Limón discuten las implicaciones que para el Trabajo Social tendrían los flujos migratorios que derivan de los flujos de inversión en los sectores maquiladores de Ciudad Juárez en Chihuahua, del noreste de México.
Victimización juvenil y prevención
Authors: Rendón Cárdenas Alma Eunice
Published: April 2024

En este artículo planteamos la importancia de la prevención a fin de buscar reducir los niveles de victimización en todos los ámbitos de socialización del individuo: el hogar, la escuela, entre amigos o miembros de la comunidad. No obstante lo anterior, en materia de prevención es imposible partir desde una posición determinista y afirmar que una persona se convertirá en un delincuente por el simple hecho de haber estado expuesto a un solo factor de riesgo en su infancia o juventud, aun tratándose de episodios de victimización reiterada. La propensión a repetir patrones de violencia o incurrir en actos delictivos en el futuro, es resultado de la exposición a una gran variedad de factores de riesgo en distintas etapas de la vida.Abordamos distintas teorías sobre la relación entre victimización, violencia y delincuencia. Después se proporcionarán algunas cifras sobre la situación actual de la victimización en México, sobre todo a partir de los datos de la recién publicada Encuesta de Cohesión Social para la Prevención de la Violencia y la Delincuencia y de la Encuesta Nacional de Victimización 2015. Por último, se discutirán las distintas formas en las que se ha abordado el tema de la victimización desde la política de prevención social de la violencia y la delincuencia, identificando retos y oportunidades para el futuro.

Estos elementos se formulan como una síntesis que centran el territorio como una unidad de análisis transdiciplinario, en la perspectiva de generar mayor conocimiento en la investigación social para orientar la intervención en los escenarios socialmente complejos.
¿Seguridad pública sin proceso democrático de pacificación? Siete premisas fenomenológicas sobre México
Authors: De la Cruz Lugardo Pedro Isnardo
Published: April 2024

La profundización del esquema de militarización, la ausencia de control social en términos de gobernabilidad eficaz desde las instituciones y poderes del Estado (tanto en lo administrativo, como policial y militar), así como la escalada del narcotráfico como principal eje de la economía de diversas regiones del país, anulan el sentido de libertad y la existencia de un Estado de derecho, ante la amenaza permanente de muerte o exposición al azar de la violencia extrema, a modo de una administración desgastada y cada vez menos creíble desde las instituciones del Estado, de la sociedad actual del riesgo. Es necesario repensar la estrategia nacional en clave de pacificación justa y nuevos procesos de diálogo social y comunitario.

A Study on Self-reflection on the Experience of a Experienced Teacher's Play-centered Early Childhood Education Curriculum
Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Ha Jeong Hee
Published: April 2024

Objectives The purpose of this study is to examine the change in perception through self-reflection on the difficulty of practicing the play-based curriculum of experienced teachers.
Methods An in-depth interview was conducted with one retired early childhood teacher who had experience in teaching and practicing both the existing curriculum and the play-centered curriculum, focusing on the teacher's own experience, inner life, and relationships such as infants and fellow teachers. Data analysis was conducted in a repetitive and cyclical process in a spiral analysis method.
Results The experienced teacher was feeling confused about the role of the teacher as a play supporter and looked deeply at herself and her fellow teachers. In this process, she found a new perspective on the role of teachers in the play-centered curriculum and discovered an educational perception of the curriculum she was creating.
Conclusions Experienced teachers have changed their perception of education and practice through selfreflection. There is a need for support centered on experienced teachers who can enhance their understanding of the play-centered curriculum through self-reflection. In addition, as an alternative to this, we propose a group of fellow teachers where reflection and learning through relationships take place.

Recommendations for Pain Management in Cancer Patients
Authors: Dave Pallav
Published: April 2024

Pain is a symptom that is reported in cancer patients with the prevalence varying from 33% to 64%. Addressing pain remains a critical aspect of cancer treatment with research showing that pain management in this population remains inadequate. Addressing pain is instrumental because of the impact it has on a patient’s life. It affects clinical outcomes, contributes to poor quality of life, and leads to psychological distress. Barriers remain the key challenge that contributes to inadequate management. Addressing these barriers can lead to better outcomes. Carrying out a comprehensive patient assessment and screening is recommended before beginning pain management. Pain is multidimensional in nature and for many patients, different factors may be contributing to pain. Conducting a comprehensive assessment helps to identify these factors. Comprehensive assessment also helps to capture important information that can contribute to better pain management. After conducting an assessment, pain management should begin. Cancer pain can be managed using pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions. The interventions should aim to improve patient comfort and function. The interventions should also provide more benefits than adverse effects. One of the mainstay interventions in managing cancer pain is opioids. Opioids should be given in accordance with recommendations from different guidelines to ensure they are effective.
A Concise Review on Contemporary and Novel Treatments Addressing the Prevention and Control of Hyperpigmentation
Authors: Onkar Nandraj Jagdale , Gajanan Khule Ashwini , Karande Dr. K.M.
Published: April 2024

Hyperpigmentation is a common skin condition characterized by the darkening of certain areas of the skin due to an excess production of melanin. This condition can be caused by a variety of factors, including sun exposure, hormonal changes, inflammation, and skin injuries. Hyperpigmentation can have a significant impact on a person's self-esteem and quality of life. Hormonal changes, such as those experienced during pregnancy or menopause, can also lead to hyperpigmentation. Inflammation from conditions like acne or eczema can cause the skin to produce excess melanin, resulting in dark spots or patches. Additionally, skin injuries, such as cuts or burns, can trigger the body to produce more melanin as part of the healing process, leading to hyperpigmentation. Creams containing ingredients like hydroquinone, retinol, or vitamin C can help lighten dark spots and even out skin tone. Medications containing corticosteroids, may be recommended for more severe cases of hyperpigmentation. In addition, novel drug delivery systems such as liposomes, Transferosomes, Niosomes etc. have shown better penetration topically hence they can be used to treat pigmentation. Understanding the causes of hyperpigmentation and seeking appropriate treatment can help improve the overall health and appearance of the skin. By addressing the underlying factors contributing to hyperpigmentation and using targeted skincare products or treatments, individuals can achieve a more even complexion and feel more confident in their skin.
Background: The topic of hyperpigmentation is of significant interest in dermatology and cosmetology due to its widespread prevalence and impact on individuals' skin health and appearance.several traditional treatments such as topical hydroquinone and retinoids have been utilized for managing hyperpigmentation, there is an increasing recognition of the need for more effective and targeted intervention.
A Review on Transdermal Drug Delivery System
Authors: Rohini U Sante , Fugate Ajay , Yelkote Priyanka D , Phulari Madhuri M , Patil Sneha R , Ritthe Punam V , Shaikh I Imran
Published: April 2024

Transdermal patches are designed to deliver drugs across the skin membrane without causing pain. This method of drug delivery, known as transdermal delivery, was first used in 1981 when Ciba-Geigy smarketed Transdermal V (now marketed as Transderm Scop) to prevent nausea and vomiting associated with motion sickness. Transdermal patches are pharmaceutical preparations of varying sizes, containing one or more active ingredients, which are applied to unbroken skin to deliver the active ingredient after passing through the skin barriers, thus avoiding first-pass metabolism. Today, about 74% of drugs are taken orally and often prove ineffective. To improve drug efficacy, transdermal drug delivery systems have emerged. The main objective of these systems is to deliver drugs into systemic circulation through the skin at a predetermined rate with minimal inter- and intra-patient variations.

A Case study- Jalaukavacharan-Leech Therapyin management of Vranagranthi (Keloid)
Authors: B.Padvi Dr. Sejal , Kumar Sharma Dr. Rajesh
Published: April 2024

Keloid is a type of scar that results from the overgrowth of dense fibrous tissue which is usually develops after healing of a skin injury. In other words, it represents an abnormal scar formation. The tissue extends beyond the borders of the original wound and does not usually regress spontaneously. It causes cosmetic deformity, itching, pain, and stress ultimately resulting in compromised quality of life and diminished functional performance. The treatment of Keloid is often difficult because there is an associated high risk of recurrence. Vrana represents a vast part of Shalyatantra and the pathogenesis of Keloid is similar to Vrana granthi which has been explained as a growth of mass at the site of Vrana following dietetic complications or any physical irritation in a Vrana patient. Jalaukavacharana (leech therapy) is a parasurgical type of Raktamokshana and is considered as the most unique and effective method of bloodletting. Leeches are widely used in most disorders ranging from skin disease with evidence of successful results. In the present paper, an effort has been made to case of keloid that have been conducted in Ayurveda as para surgical procedure.

Published: April 2024

The oral route is the most favored technique for administering the drug orally in the body. As a result of certain limitations such as drug absorption, poor bioavailability, first-pass hepatic metabolism and medicine target to particular organs, may cause problems for administration via oral route. Therefore parenteral route, transmucosal route and transdermal route are preferred over oral route. Intranasal route is deemed to be a desirable route because of the time profile of concentration a drug is close to that of the intravenous route. The nasal route has also been successfully used for bypassing the blood-brain barrier and afterword delivering drug molecules to the central nervous system .The in-situ gelling system is a process in which   is in a solution form before the administration in the body but it converts in to a gel form after administration . The formation of gel depends on factors like temperature modulation, pH change, presence of ions from which drug get released in sustained and controlled manner. Therefore this review focuses on nasal drug delivery, a variety of aspects of nasal anatomy and physiology, nasal absorption mechanism, and In-Situ gels evaluations.

Objetivo: examinar las diferencias en la interacción trabajo-familia en función del género en una muestra multiocupacional colombiana.
Diseño/metodología: investigación cuantitativa con diseño transversal y estrategia comparativa. Se aplicó una ficha de datos sociodemográficos y el cuestionario SWING (Survey Work-Home Interaction) en mujeres (n = 445) y hombres (n = 445) con vinculación laboral activa. El tratamiento de los datos se realizó a través del paquete estadístico JASP, en el cual se ejecutaron análisis descriptivos, correlacionales y comparativos a través de la técnica no paramétrica U de Mann-Whitney para muestras independientes. Se reportaron los niveles de significancia y el tamaño del efecto.
Resultados: se hallaron diferencias en el conflicto trabajo-familia con mayor promedio para las mujeres, y en la conciliación trabajo-familia con mayor promedio en los hombres. Tanto el conflicto, como la conciliación en la dirección de la familia hacia el trabajo, no evidenciaron diferencias. Se identificaron correlaciones significativas entre las cuatro dimensiones de la interacción trabajo-familia.
Conclusiones: los hallazgos confirmaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en la interacción trabajo-familia en función del género.
Originalidad: desde la teoría de demandas y recursos laborales, esta investigación aporta a la comprensión de la interacción trabajo-familia desde la perspectiva de género en un país latinoamericano.

Corporate governance is a major topic of debate among scholars from different parts of the world, but little has been empirically investigated on the impact of corporate governance on the discretionary work behaviour of employees in selected deposit money banks in Nigeria. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the impact of corporate governance on the organizational citizenship behaviour of employees in deposit money banks. A cross-sectional survey design was used, which supports the use of questionnaire to collect data from the participants. Data were collected from 224 participants from 18 deposit money banks operating in south-east Nigeria. The study employed frequency distribution and linear regression to analyse respondents’ profiles and research hypotheses. Results of the study revealed that corporate governance dimensions predicted organisational citizenship behaviour indicators. The practical significance of this study lies in the possibility of improving organizational citizenship behaviour in organizations by integrating the main recommendations of this study into the corporate governance of organizations. This study concludes that corporate governance (measured in terms of leadership quality, accountability, board size, board effectiveness, and board independence) influences and improves organizational citizenship behaviour that is driven by altruism, integrity, sportsmanship, courtesy, and civic virtue.

A 70-year-old man presented with regular wide QRS complex tachycardia
(WCT) at a rate of 185 beats/min, characterized by left bundle branch
block morphology. WCT termination was achieved through electrical
cardioversion. A subsequent 12-lead electrocardiogram revealed sinus
rhythm with complete right bundle branch block (CRBBB) morphology.
Echocardiography showed normal left ventricular function without
structural heart disease. An electrophysiological study was then
conducted, followed by catheter ablation. At baseline, the atrio-His and
His-ventricular intervals were normal. Fractionated ventricular
potentials were observed in the para-Hisian region during sinus rhythm.
Neither dual atrioventricular (AV) nodal physiology nor ventriculoatrial
conduction was observed during programmed pacing. Clinical WCT was
induced by ventricular extra-stimulation with concurrent AV dissociation
and no visual His bundle potential, confirming the diagnosis of
ventricular tachycardia (VT). Figure 1 illustrates 12-lead
electrocardiograms recorded during overdrive pacing from the right
ventricular apex (RVA) and right atrial septum during VT. The
electroanatomical activation map revealed a distinctive focal breakout
pattern with fractionated potentials originating from the para-Hisian
region. In the noncoronary cusp (NCC), corresponding to the opposite
side of the para-Hisian region, prolonged and fractionated ventricular
potentials preceding QRS onset by 56 ms were recorded (Figure 2A).
Figure 2B shows the intracardiac electrogram recorded during ventricular
overdrive pacing from the NCC during VT. Based on these observations,
what is the mechanisms underlying the tachycardia?
Moisture modes with an oscillating vertical motion profile shape in steady-state weak temperature gradient simulations
Authors: Bernardez Miguel , Back Larissa E
Published: April 2024

Weak Temperature Gradient (WTG) modeling using a small cloud-resolving
model (CRM) admits multiple equilibria depending upon the initial model
conditions. A new kind of equilibrium is presented here which undergoes
a periodic and steady-state oscillation that is emergent from static
boundary conditions. The periodic oscillation is shown to be a moisture
mode with an oscillating vertical motion profile shape generated by the
interaction between vertical motion and radiation. A simple two-mode
model based on decomposing the vertical motion profile and associated
radiative cooling variations can describe the oscillation.
Characterising the magnetic and plasma environment upstream of Ganymede

We present an application of the latest UCL-AGA magnetodisc model
(MDISC) to the study of the magnetic and plasma conditions in the
near-Ganymede space. By doing this, we provide a comparison with
measurements from Juno’s most recent flyby of the Jovian moon, perijove
34 (PJ34). We find good agreement between the model results and the
magnetometer data, pointing towards a hot plasma index value $K_h =
\SI{2.719(24)e7}{\pascal\,\meter\,\tesla^{-1}}$
and an effective magnetodisc radius $r_{\text{max}}
= \SI{79.5(11)}{}$ Jupiter radii for the Jovian
magnetosphere, for the duration of the trajectory, suggesting a
configuration with middling levels of expansion. We also predict the
plasma conditions observed by Juno during the same flight-path, as well
as the typical conditions over the orbit of Ganymede, with the magnetic
and hot plasma pressures assuming dominant roles. Finally, these results
are compared with functional fits of a compilation of Galileo flyby data
obtained in the vicinity of Ganymede’s orbit, suggesting Juno
experienced somewhat similar conditions, despite a systematic
overestimation in magnetic field intensity in the near-Ganymede space.
