Gestione del Covid-19 in età pediatrica: documento di consenso
Authors:   GRUPPO DI LAVORO SU COVID-19 IN PEDIATRIA DELLA REGIONE EMILIA-ROMAGNA (RE-CO-PED)*
Published: February 2021

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 has rapidly spread, becoming the first pandemic of the 21st century by death toll. Children appear to be less affected than adults, with a milder clinical presentation and a significantly lower mortality rate. However, serious complica-tions can occur in childhood, such as COVID-19 temporally related multisystem inflammatory syn-drome (MIS-C). Some aspects of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children and adolescents remain un-clear and the optimal treatment has not been defined. The Working Group on COVID-19 in Paediatrics of the Emilia-Romagna Region (RE-CO-PED) has produced a consensus document with practical recommendations based on a systematic review of the literature and on the clinical experi-ence of the expert group. Evidence is reported regarding prevention measures, diagnostic tools as well as home and hospital therapeutic management of complicated cases (MIS-C). The educational and psychological effects of the pandemic in the paediatric and adolescent age are reported, with the need to define coordinated interventions (between paediatricians, neurospychiatrists, psycholo-gists and educational services) for the prevention and treatment of documented emotional, relational and educational consequences caused by the lockdown, school closures and social distances.
Una volta che ci saremo ripresi dalla pandemia ridefiniremo i nostri valori?
Authors: Marchetti Federico
Published: February 2021

Epidemics end. But how we get to the end and how we deal with this ancient threat will define us as people. It is difficult to imagine what our future may be, as people and as paediatricians. The Covid-19 pandemic offers us the opportunity to imagine a better world if we are able to lead the inevitable and necessary change. There are new ways that may be able to govern the inevitable changes better and that concern the social, administrative, scientific and socio-health organization context. After the Covid-19 pandemic we will have to change the focus on the rights of children and adolescents. As pae-diatricians we must imagine the perspectives of our work aimed at the needs of an entire generation that must be cared for and defended by our continuous sacrifices to ensure the health of parents and grandparents. In our near future we - we first - can give a clear demonstration that we are able to re-define our values.

A proteção do direito ao meio ambiente no caso Nuestra Tierra vs. Argentina: o ativismo da Corte Interamericana de Direitos Humanos
Authors: D’Ávila Lopes Ana Maria
Published: February 2021

O objetivo do presente trabalho é discutir se a inclusão do direito ao meio ambiente como um direito judicializável constitui manifestação de um ativismo descontrolado da Corte Interamericana de Direitos Humanos (CorteIDH) e se isso coloca em risco sua legitimidade. Não há como negar os aspectos positivos da ampliação dos direitos judiciáveis em qualquer sistema jurídico, mas a questão é se esses aspectos positivos podem ser sobrepor às normas que estruturam e estabelecem as regras de competência dos órgãos desse sistema. Ignorar as normas procedimentais, não seria uma forma de fragilizar a legitimidade do próprio sistema. Este artigo inicia explicitando as competências da Corte IDH, conforme previsto na Convenção Americana de Direitos Humanos, incluindo uma análise da OC-23/17, por meio da qual a Corte IDH declarou o meio ambiente sadio como um direito judicializável. Na sequência, os principais pontos da sentença do caso Nuestra Tierra vs. Argentina são sinteticamente expostos e analisados criticamente. Finalmente, o ativismo da Corte IDH é discutido buscando demonstrar a necessidade de uma autocontenção como forma de evitar a fragilização da sua legitimidade.
Assimetria de poder na transição democrática e o desenho da jurisdição constitucional brasileira
Authors: Lorencini Bruno César
Published: February 2021

O artigo discute a causalidade existente entre a assimetria de poder verificada no momento constituinte de 1988 e o desenho do modelo de jurisdição constitucional brasileiro. Inicialmente, compreende-se o processo de transição política e as hipóteses explicativas para a relação entre democratização e constitucionalismo. Após, analisa-se a jurisdição constitucional enquanto instituição central do Estado Constitucional Democrático, analisando-se os fatores de tensão e conciliação entre os fenômenos democrático e constitucional. Conclui-se com a defesa da tese que a Assembleia Nacional Constituinte de 1988 se caracterizou pela baixa assimetria de poder, o que resultou na ampliação decisiva da jurisdição constitucional e sua fixação como pilar normativo da democracia brasileira.
A despopulação na esfera rural brasileira: reflexões acerca da sustentabilidade e as perspectivas sociojurídicas de empoderamento social local
Authors: Calgaro Cleide , Hermany Ricardo , Ramos Alves Paulo Roberto
Published: February 2021

O presente artigo busca analisar a despopulação na esfera rural brasileira, verificando os pressupostos teóricos da sustentabilidade e as perspectivas de empoderamento social local. Desse modo, o problema a ser respondido é o seguinte: quais os impactos e desafios socioambientais enfrentados no Brasil em razão da despopulação na esfera rural? Assim, tem-se como objetivos específicos: a) analisar os desafios socioambientais enfrentados no âmbito agrícola brasileiro e os reflexos na despopulação rural; b) estudar os impactos de uma agricultura predatória, verificando as potencialidades sociojurídicas de um novo perfil de ocupação do solo. Para tanto, utiliza-se os métodos de procedimento monográfico e de abordagem dedutivo, e a técnica de pesquisa é a bibliográfica. Conclui-se a migração da população rural para as cidades traz impactos negativos aos dois lados, visto que os grandes centros urbanos não estavam preparados para receber as pessoas da zona rural, assim como houve um aumento dos bairros de periferias. Já os impactos causados nas zonas rurais a partir da diminuição de pessoas vem causando problemas na arrecadação de impostos, escassez de mão-de-obra qualificada e diminuição drástica da produção agrícola.
Constitutional model of the collective process in the theory of the collective actions as thematic actions: a critical study of the environment as a human right
Authors: Veiga Costa Fabrício , Dos Santos Ferreira Aparecido José
Published: February 2021

The general objective of this research is to investigate the collective democratic process from the perspective of the theory of collective actions as thematic actions, in order to evidence, from this theory, the democraticity of the respective process model. The choice of the theme is justified due to its theoretical, practical and current relevance, especially because the proposed analytical outline took place within the environment as a human right. In this theoretical perspective presented, the collective process is understood as a space of broad dialecticity, allowing all diffuse and collective stakeholders to participate directly in the debates of controversial themes and points related to the object of the conflict. Through bibliographic and documentary research, in addition to critical, theoretical, thematic and interpretative analyses, it was concluded that the direct participation of all those interested in the formation of the merit of environmental collective actions is an essential requirement for the democratic legitimacy of the judicial provision.

Authors: Bushey Wislot Steve Hemsly , Rivera Zamora Milton
Published: February 2021

El estudio se realizó en el mercado Municipal de la ciudad de Bilwi, ubicado en el Barrio Pedro Joaquín Chamorro; con el título: “Factores que inciden en las políticas de comercialización de yuca por microempresarias en el Mercado Municipal de Bilwi”. El desarrollo de este estudio investigativo tuvo el propósito de analizar los factores, políticas, oferta, demanda y el costo beneficio que implementan las microempresarias; asimismo proponer alternativa de comercialización. Tuvo un enfoque metodológico cualitativo, con elementos cuantitativo, debido a que se trata de describir qué acciones prácticas permiten que se comercialice la yuca en este mercado. Las variables identificadas en este estudio son: La incidencia de la comercialización de la yuca, la política de comercialización, la oferta, demanda y costo beneficio. La población total estuvo conformada por 21 mujeres microempresarias, tomando como muestra el 62% equivalente a 13 microempresarias. Los resultados indican que la incidencia de la comercialización se hace en base a la forma que se oferta el producto, a la demanda al igual que se consideran las políticas de mayor importancia. En relación a los costos beneficios el estudio demostró que la venta por sacos está diferenciada, ya que influye el costo de adquisición y la temporada de compra y venta de la yuca. Otro resultado refleja que las microempresarias carecen políticas de comercialización del producto yuca, razón por la cual se hacen diferentes propuestas para fortalecer el proceso de comercialización a las microempresarias, considerando el aporte de este estudio.

The Design of the College English Curriculum from the Perspective of International Engineering Education Accreditation—A Case Study from the Beijing Institute of Petrochemical Technology
Authors: He Yaqin , Zhang Weiran , Yan Jiaolan
Published: February 2021

A scientific curriculum system is of vital importance for an institution’s professional accreditation. This paper seeks to improve the previous College English curriculum by resolving certain recalcitrant problems impeding both teaching and learning; furthermore, it takes into account the demands of international society. By embracing an outcome-based, student-centered approach for International Engineering education accreditation, the paper emphasizes teaching targets of a College English curriculum for future engineers based on knowledge, capacity and quality. In addition, it provides a graduation requirement index matrix and, a differentiated curriculum system, which specifies a clear relationship between the system and students’ outcomes. Finally, four characteristics of the system are elaborated: compulsory courses and optional courses are compared; English for General Purpose (EGP) and English for Special Purpose (ESP) are correlated; classroom teaching and extracurricular context are integrated; and formative assessment and summative assessment are combined.
Literatura em Jogo: o RPG como alternativa metodológica no ensino da leitura literária
Authors: Lima Sheila Oliveira , Silva Zamariam Franciela
Published: February 2021

Este trabalho discute o uso do Jogo de Interpretação de Papéis (RPG) como alternativa metodológica no ensino da leitura literária nos anos finais da Educação Básica. Para tanto, vale-se da aplicação do RPG que desenvolvemos a partir do conto “A cartomante”, de Machado de Assis, a alunos do primeiro ano do Ensino Médio, de uma escola pública estadual. Embasa-se, fundamentalmente, nas discussões de Jouve (2002), para quem a leitura literária se assemelha a um jogo e o leitor deve ser considerado em sua totalidade; em Colomer (2009), a qual ressalta o valor da leitura compartilhada na formação do leitor; e nas ideias propostas por Barthes (2004) de que o leitor, além de uma entidade complexa, é uma personagem das obras que lê. Já os conceitos relacionados ao jogo recebem o suporte, principalmente, de Huizinga (2000) e Caillois (1990). Esse percurso proporcionou-nos valiosas reflexões sobre como a literatura vem sendo tratada na escola e sobre a importância de uma metodologia, no ensino da leitura, atenta às necessidades dos “leitores reais” (JOUVE, 2002), oriundos, muitas vezes, de espaços sociais alheios aos círculos literários.

Plano de desenvolvimento estadual sustentável e o novo paradigma de desenvolvimento para a Amazônia
Authors: Reikdal Cleverton , Siena Osmar
Published: February 2021

O trabalho visou identificar o alinhamento do Plano de Desenvolvimento Estadual Sustentável de Rondônia com a proposta de um novo paradigma de desenvolvimento para a Amazônia proposto por Carlos Afonso Nobre e colaboradores, que tem por base a valorização dos produtos da biodiversidade para o curto prazo como uma fase de transição e, no longo prazo, as tecnologias disruptivas emergentes da quarta revolução industrial. O pressuposto é que os modelos atuais de desenvolvimento da região não são capazes de responder aos problemas e impedir o aumento da degradação ambiental. Foi realizada uma pesquisa classificada como descritiva, documental, com adoção do método qualitativo. Os dados foram retirados do texto do PDES-RO-2015 e submetidos a análise do conteúdo. Constatou-se que o referido plano, mesmo possuindo projetos voltados para um desenvolvimento sustentável, abarcando as esferas ambiental, social, econômica e cultural, os programas reforçam o paradigma atual da visão de apropriação apenas econômica da floresta.
Application of Translation Technologies in the Translation of IMTFE Transcripts
Authors: Huang Danhua
Published: February 2021

Machine translation has grown very rapidly in recent times due to the developments in big data, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing software and techniques. The first generation of Rule-Based Machine Translation has been replaced by fourth generation of Neural Machine Translation based on complex deep learning and networking models. Translation models have also undergone tremendous changes. The traditional translation model fails to meet the needs of the modern language service industry. There still exists doubt whether Translation technologies could enhance the quality in the translation of non-technical texts. So far no one has discussed the application of the technologies in the translation of IMTFE Transcripts. This paper aims to prove that translation technologies can be applied to the translation of IMTFE Transcripts which the author works on. By analyzing the text features of IMTFE Transcripts, and applying different translation technologies in the translation, the author finds that the quality and efficiency of translation have been greatly enhanced. It is concluded that translation technologies can be used to facilitate translation of texts of different kinds. In spite of their drawbacks, translators can still benefit a lot from the adoption of translation technologies.
Need Analysis: English Language Use by Students in the Tourism and Hospitality and Industry

Published: February 2021

This research had 3 objectives. First, to discover the main skills students studying in Tourism (TR) and Hospitality Industry (HI) need to successfully use English. Second, to ascertain the essential skills that students need in English language acquisition. Last, to investigate which skills students found to be the most problematic in English language learning. The informants of 160 students were split by the quota sampling method into two equally sized groups of 80 learners each; i.e., 80 were placed into the Tourism group and 80 into the Hospitably group. Twenty participants were selected equally from each academic year - from first year students to fourth year students - for placement into each category of TR and HI. To acquire relevant data a learner’s perception questionnaire was employed as well as interview questions. Average and standard deviation were used to examine the questionnaire data and content analysis for the interview data. There was a .05 difference statistically between the hospitality industry and tourism students’ English scores. The hospitality industry students scored slightly higher. Conversely, when comparing the different levels of students' attitudes in the 5 language skills, the tourism students scored higher than the hospitality industry students, yet the difference of .05 was also not statistically significant. Additionally, the outcome from a comparison of student satisfaction levels toward English teaching and learning, found that tourism students reported higher satisfaction levels than those of the hospitality industry students. However, the .05 degree of difference was not statistically significant. Also, neither of the student groups were significantly different in terms of enhancing their English skills. Additionally, the interview results showed that improving English language skills and grammatical structures were the skills the students' reported needing the most assistance with in their studies. Neither of the student groups were significantly different in terms of enhancing their English skills. The study found that the main reason that students of both majors desired to improve their English language skills was to improve their grades. The obstacles faced by the students in these two sample groups in using the English language are not very different, since most of the interviewed people reported that the skills of listening and speaking as being the greatest problems in their communication. Another similarity between the two sample groups was that students of both majors expressed a positive attitude toward their English language learning.

Opodatkowanie akcyzą energii elektrycznej ze źródeł odnawialnych (wybrane problemy)
Authors: Dmowski Andrzej
Published: February 2021

W artykule przedstawiono metody opodatkowania podatkiem akcyzowym energii elektrycznej wytwarzanej ze źródeł odnawialnych. Ustawa z dnia 6 grudnia 2008 r. o podatku akcyzowym1, która wdraża przepisy dyrektywy Rady 2003/96/WE z dnia 27 października 2003 r. w sprawie restrukturyzacji wspólnotowych przepisów ramowych dotyczących opodatkowania produktów energetycznych i energii elektrycznej2 (tzw. dyrektywa energetyczna), przewiduje liczne zwolnienia z podatku akcyzowego. Autor analizuje listę obligatoryjnych i fakultatywnych zwolnień w podatku akcyzowym na podstawie przywołanej dyrektywy w zakresie transakcji krajowych i międzynarodowych dotyczących odnawialnych źródeł energii.
W artykule omówiono konsekwencje podatkowe w podatku akcyzowym po stronie prosumenta związane z energią elektryczną wprowadzaną do sieci (z odnawialnych źródeł energii) oraz energią pobieraną przez prosumenta z sieci elektroenergetycznej, jak również po stronie przedsiębiorstwa energetycznego (sprzedawcy zobowiązanego) związane z energią elektryczną pobraną z sieci elektroenergetycznej przez prosumenta. Obowiązujący w Polsce model relacji między podmiotem wytwarzającym energię elektryczną w mikroinstalacjach ze źródeł odnawialnych (zarówno osoby fizyczne nieprowadzące działalności gospodarczej, jak i przedsiębiorcy) a przedsiębiorstwem energetycznym (tj. podmiotem zawodowo zajmującym się wytwarzaniem energii elektrycznej lub obrotem nią) został oparty na systemie opustów (system opomiarowania netto). Na podstawie ustawy z dnia 20 lutego 2015 r. o odnawialnych źródłach energii3 podmiot posiadający mikroinstalację uzyskał status prosumenta, a przedsiębiorstwo energetyczne – status sprzedawcy zobowiązanego.
Podsumowując, zdaniem autora analiza sposobu opodatkowania podatkiem akcyzowym energii elektrycznej ze źródeł odnawialnych prowadzi do wniosku, że przyjęty model preferencji fiskalnych dla podmiotów wytwarzających energię ze źródeł odnawialnych, w szczególności korzystających z generatorów o łącznej mocy nieprzekraczającej 1 MW (mikroinstalacja), nie został prawidłowo wdrożony.
W ocenie autora preferencje podatkowe w podatku akcyzowym dotyczące produkcji energii elektrycznej ze źródeł odnawialnych powinny zakładać brak opodatkowania takiej energii, w szczególności wytwarzanej w mikroinstalacjach, podczas gdy rzeczona ilość energii elektrycznej jest opodatkowana podatkiem akcyzowym, tylko u innego podmiotu – przedsiębiorstwa energetycznego (sprzedawcy zobowiązanego). Takie działania w znaczący sposób przyczyniłyby się do popularyzacji produkcji tzw. zielonej energii.

Published: February 2021

Na engenharia de software problemas de pesquisa vêm sendo estudados sob a ótica qualitativa. Vários estudos que adotam métodos qualitativos baseados em texto, possuem um procedimento denominado codificação, através do qual os dados são desmembrados para a produção de um novo conhecimento. Por ser uma tarefa analítica, a codificação demanda pessoas e tempo de execução. Existem alguns softwares para realização desse procedimento, no entanto, a maioria não é gratuita e não permite que a codificação seja executada por um conjunto de pessoas. Este artigo apresenta uma ferramenta de codificação colaborativa de dados textuais. Em um estudo de caso, o uso da ferramenta diminuiu significativamente o tempo de codificação, sem prejuízo para a qualidade dos códigos gerados.
Controlled Experiment in Crosscutting Concerns Identification from Software Requirements Specification
Authors: Martins Guilherme Legramante , Bernardino Maicon , Da Silva João Pablo Silva , Rodrigues Elder Macedo
Published: February 2021

The concern is a group of requirements with the same purpose, which are known as crosscutting concerns when they are scattered and tangled in the system. Identifying and separating these concerns is a matter of huge importance to software maintainability and evolution. For this, some approaches are proposed. There are few experimental studies comparing and analyzing these approaches in detail. In this paper, our aim is to provide empirical evidence about two approaches in this context. We conducted a controlled experiment to compare the effectiveness of two approaches, which identify crosscutting concerns in the requirements specification, followed by an assessment of its perceived utility and ease of use. Our results indicate that, in this given context and planned scenario, there are significant differences between the effectiveness of ObasCId and Theme/Doc approaches.

Authors: Da Silva Felipe Fernandes , Amaral Aline Maria Malachini Miotto , Colanzi Thelma Elita
Published: February 2021

Considerando um cenário cada vez mais dinâmico que requer mudanças constantes, o desenvolvimento de software atual exige que pessoas e organizações controlem a qualidade dos artefatos gerados ao longo de seu processo. Alterações nos artefatos de software podem ocorrer por vários fatores, seja para corrigir a funcionalidade ou adaptar-se à nova demanda de negócios. Além disso, esses artefatos geralmente são elaborados de forma colaborativa, o que faz com que, para garantir sua qualidade, seja necessária a adoção de práticas de Gerenciamento de Configuração de Software (GCS). Os ambientes dos grupos de pesquisa em computação se assemelham em muitos aspectos aos ambientes de desenvolvimento de software, nos quais o principal artefato produzido é o software. Esses softwares, elaborados em várias pesquisas e por muitos pesquisadores, precisam ter sua qualidade controlada. Nesse sentido, o objetivo deste trabalho é propor um conjunto de políticas de GCS para ambientes de grupos de pesquisa. Espera-se que, com a implementação de políticas como as propostas, a qualidade do software desenvolvido em ambientes acadêmicos possa ser melhorada.

Menschenrechte als Teilhaberechte an politischen Gesellschaften
Authors: Icking Johannes
Published: February 2021

What do we mean when we talk about human rights? This is the question at the core of an ongoing philosophical debate between advocates of naturalistic and political theories on human rights. Discussing both strengths and weaknesses of these positions, the author proposes an alternative understanding of fundamental rights: Human rights should be understood as membership rights in a political society. This book thus not only offers the first profound discussion in the German language of one of the most important contemporary debates in political philosophy, but also proposes a novel interpretation of one of the defining concepts of modern normative thinking.

Filme.Macherinnen
Authors: Kaiser Henriette , Lerch-Stumpf Monika , Schröter Claudia
Published: February 2021

»Ältere Männer in tiefen schwarzen Sesseln« waren es, die aus der Sicht einer der ersten Studentinnen an der Hochschule für Fernsehen und Film München 1967 in der Aufnahmekommission über das Schicksal der zukünftigen Studierenden entschieden. Frauen waren in den ersten Jahrgängen sehr schwach vertreten, die Filmbranche galt als Herrschaftsbereich der Männer. Für die Studentinnen der ersten Jahrgänge der HFF bedeutete das: sich auf die Suche nach neuen, eigenen Wegen zu machen und damit auch nach spezifisch weiblichen Themen und Ausdrucksformen.

Schon in den 1980er Jahren gehörten die HFF-Frauen zu den Impulsgeberinnen der Hochschule und drangen in die »männliche Bastion« ein. Seit den 1990er Jahren sind sie auf Erfolgskurs und haben zu der Auszeichnung »HFF – die Oscar-Schmiede« einen großen Beitrag geleistet. Heute kann man sagen, dass die Hochschule nicht mehr – wie es 1967 hieß – eine Hochschule für »gestandene Männer« ist, sondern eine Hochschule für »gestandene«, gleichberechtigte Frauen und Männer. Die Autorinnen untersuchen in diesem Buch die Erfolgsgeschichte der HFF aus der Sicht der Frauen. Henriette Kaiser führte 41 Interviews mit Absolventinnen, die tiefe Einblicke in die Berufs- und Lebenssituation der Filmemacherinnen geben. Claudia Schröter geht in einer umfangreichen Online-Befragung mit 364 Absolventinnen dem Forschungsinteresse »Wie geht es den Frauen der HFF heute?« nach. Monika Lerch-Stumpf lässt nach ihrer 35-jährigen Lehr- und Forschungstätigkeit an der HFF – und als Alumni- und Frauenbeauftragte – in einer historischen Aufarbeitung die Situation der HFF-Frauen Revue passieren.
A Brief Summary of the Finite Element Method for Differential Equations
Authors: Baccouch Mahboub
Published: February 2021

The finite element (FE) method is a numerical technique for computing approximate solutions to complex mathematical problems described by differential equations. The method was developed in the 1950s to solve complicated problems in engineering, notably in elasticity and structural mechanics modeling involving elliptic partial differential equations and complicated geometries. But nowadays the range of applications is quite extensive. In particular, the FE method has been successfully applied to many problems such as fluid–structure interaction, thermomechanical, thermochemical, thermo-chemo-mechanical problems, biomechanics, biomedical engineering, piezoelectric, ferroelectric, electromagnetics, and many others. This chapter contains a summary of the FE method. Since the remaining chapters of this textbook are based on the FE method, we present it in this chapter as a method for approximating solutions of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and partial differential equations (PDEs).

Cervicogenic headaches are a controversial clinical entity that affect many patients suffering from cervical spondylosis. Understanding the pathogenesis and identifying the nociceptive sources of cervicogenic headaches is critical to properly treat these headaches. A multimodal approach is necessary to treat these headaches using a variety of medical tools. Surgical interventions are reserved for patients that fail maximal medical therapy. The anterior cervical spine surgery has shown promise in the treatment of cervicogenic headaches and this success has hinted at a ventral source of nociceptive pathology. Continued research and development are required to improve outcomes in patients suffering from cervicogenic headaches.
Access to N-Heterocyclic Molecules via Ru(II)-Catalyzed Oxidative Alkyne Annulation Reactions
Authors: K. Patel Bhisma , Rakshit Amitava
Published: February 2021

In last few decades, the transition metal-catalyzed C-H bond activation and alkyne annulation reactions have turned out to be effective methods for the construction of highly important heterocycles. In particular, the Ru(II) catalysts have been used for the oxidative coupling between an internal alkynes and readily available nitrogen directed compounds in a rapid and sustainable manner. The Ru(II) catalysts are very much beneficial due to their stability in both air and water, ease of preparation, inexpensive than those of Rh(III) and designer Co(III) catalysts usually used for alkyne annulation reactions, requirement of mild reaction conditions, and compatible with various oxidants. Owing to these advantages of Ru(II) catalysts herein, we attempt to highlight the recent development in C-H activation and annulation reactions, which lead to the formation of several important N-heterocycles.

Millions of lives throughout the globe are under threat due to the COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 causes severe respiratory tract infections. In most countries COVID-19 Infections and deaths continue to soar despite the various measures put in place by the World Health Organization. These measures include limited mobility through lock down and banning international travelers. Furthermore, social distancing, wearing masks, frequent hand washing with soap and sanitizing were undertaken to slow down the rate of the virus spread. Only few countries like South Korea have been able to contain the virus to date. Our only hope is in biotechnology which have been used to develop diagnostic kits and more recently approved vaccines: vaccines by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna; AstraZeneca and Oxford University vaccine; Sputnik V vaccine; Sinopharm and the Beijing Institute of Biological Products vaccine. However, the vaccines are yet to reach the majority of the world population. Hence, there is need for concerted effort among governments and non-governmental organizations in all nations to develop the necessary infrastructures to step up vaccine production, and procurement as well as vaccination programmes. There is need for continued effort in biotechnology, to develop COVID-19 therapeutic drugs.
What Is The Need For Repeat Angiography In Spontaneous Subarachnoid Hemorrhages With Negative Initial Angiogram?
Authors: ÖZKUL Ayça
Published: February 2021

Objective: Repeat angiography is usually performed in spontaneous SAH patients who have negative initial angiography. In this study we aimed to evaluate the yield of repeat angiography in spontaneous SAH with different clinics and bleeding paterns.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on spontaneous SAH patients who admitted to our neurosurgery clinic. The patients were divided into two groups as perimesencephalic and nonperimesencephalic SAH according to their bleeding patern on cerebral CT. Demographic and clinic data, routine follow-up cerebral angiography within 2 weeks, complications due to repeated cerebral angiography and the presence of new detected vascular pathology were all recorded.

Results: 208 patients with spontaneous SAH with mean age 60.00±15.82 (20-83) years were included. The Fisher score was found lower in perimesencephalic SAH patients. Mortality was also seen more frequently in nonperimesencephalic SAH. In repeat angiography vascular pathology related with SAH was found in only nonperimesencephalic SAH patients without any statistically significancy (0 vs 4, p:0.078). The incidence of complications due to repeat angiography was similiar in both groups.

Conclusion: In conclusion clinicians should consider to evaluate the spontaneous SAH with subsequent neuroimaging tests once more to rule out cerebral vascular pathologies. Our data suggested that perimesencephalic SAH has a better Fisher score and less mortality when compared with nonperimesencephalic SAH. Our perimesencephalic SAH patients have no vascular pathology even after repeat angiography. Therefore high quality MR angiography or CTangiography can be easily performed rather than cerebral angiography which is an invasive imaging method. Cerebral angiography should be considered only in suspected cases with perimesencephalic SAH.
Intravenous Thrombolytic Therapy for Acute Ischemic Stroke: Experiences of a Tertiary Hospital in Turkey
Authors: YİLMAZ Murat
Published: February 2021

Objective: The aim of this study is to retrospectively collect the data of 95 patients with ischemic stroke who received intravenous (IV) tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) therapy between 2015 and 2019 in our clinic, to present the experiences of our clinic.

Method: The data of the patients, who applied to our clinic with the diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke between 2015 and 2019, who received thrombolytic therapy, were reviewed retrospectively. General socio-demographic data, clinical features, National Institute Health Scale Scores (NIHSS), Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography (ASPECT) scores, symptom-to-door, door-to-needle, and symptom-to-needle times, treatment-related complications and Modified Rankin Scores (mRS) at the third month after treatment were evaluated.

Results: Procedure-related major or minor bleeding complications developed in 18% of our patients who received tPA therapy. The mortality rate was 15% and 6.3% of these were caused by cerebral hemorrhage due to treatment complications and 8.7% were due to other systemic complications. Logistic regression analysis revealed that only the ASPECT score from factors that we found to be effective on the risk of developing complications was a highly effective factor in the development of complications (p=0.034, OR: 2.131).

Conclusions: This study has shown that our results are generally compatible with the literature. Although there is an increase in the number of patients receiving tPA in our clinic every year, we aim to increase awareness of this therapy clinically and to expand the use of IV thrombolytic therapy in selected patients.

Günümüzde internete erişimin kolaylaşması ve internete erişim araçlarının ucuzlayarak yaygınlaşması işletmeleri kurumsal kimliklerini sunabilecekleri iyi tasarlanmış, yaşayan ve sürekli gelişen web siteleri kurmaya yöneltmiştir. Web siteleri kurumların görünen yüzü haline gelmiştir. Ziyaret eden kullanıcıların kurum hakkında ve kurumun sunduğu ürün ve hizmetler hakkında ilk izlenimleri web sitelerinin sunabildiği kalite ile doğrudan ilişkilidir. İnternet yaygınlaştıkça artan bilgi kirliliği ise özellikle sağlık sektöründe hizmet talep edenler açısından büyük bir problem haline gelmiştir. Bu noktada, sağlık kurumları açısından hastaların doğru, güvenilir ve güncel bilgileri alabilecekleri en önemli araç hastane web siteleridir. Hastane web sitelerinin kullanıcı dostu, kolay erişilebilir ve anlaşılabilir şekilde tasarlanması, interaktif bir yapıda olması ve hastaların ihtiyaç duyacakları bilgileri güncel şekilde sunabilmesi kritik önemdedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye’deki üniversite, devlet ve özel hastanelerin kurumsal web sitelerinin; kullanılabilirlik, erişim kalitesi, performans, güncellik, teknik altyapı ve sosyal boyut açısından belirlenen kriterler vasıtasıyla incelemektir. Çalışmanın örneklemi, Türkiye’nin Marmara, İç Anadolu, Ege, Akdeniz, Güneydoğu Anadolu, Karadeniz ve Doğu Anadolu Bölgelerinden seçilerek kapsama alınan toplam 252 hastane web sitesidir. Hastane web siteleri, arama motoru optimizasyonu algoritmalarını kullanan bir yazılım aracılığıyla, 6 ana boyut altında yer alan 22 kriter üzerinden analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçları özellikle özel hastane web sitelerinin daha tatmin edici sonuçlar vermelerine rağmen, Türkiye’deki hastane web sitelerinin genel olarak güncellik, sosyal boyut, görsellik ve içerik kalitesi noktasında önemli geliştirmelere ihtiyaç duyduğunu göstermektedir.
Social distance of class leaders from primary and secondary school students and their parents
Authors: Milošević Aleksandra
Published: February 2021

The quality of interpersonal relationships between participants in the educational process (class teachers, students, parents) affects the creation of a favourable socio-emotional climate in and out of the classroom, and is also a significant factor of integration or disintegration of the collective, good or bad interpersonal relationships, satisfaction or dissatisfaction, success or failure achieved by students. In general, it always has a positive effect on the development of students' behaviour, and it depends on the conditions under which a class was formed, the way the class is managed, the position that students have in the class, their mutual relations and students' readiness for appropriate cooperation. With this paper, we explored the social distance that the class teacher sets in relation to students and their parents as an important prerequisite for a qualitative, open and productive cooperation among the actors of the educational process. The sample consisted of teachers in the role of class teachers, students and their parents from 36 primary and secondary schools in the Zlatibor district. The results of this research indicate that class teachers in primary and secondary schools generally have a close relationship with students and parents, although a more direct cooperation is achieved by class teachers in primary schools than in secondary ones. This confirms a more intensive educational function of primary school, as opposed to a more dominant educational function of secondary school and thus a more dynamic, complex, open and direct work of class teachers in primary school with students and parents.
Anchoring effect of performance feedback on accuracy of metacognitive monitoring in preschool children
Authors: Urban Kamila , Urban Marek
Published: February 2021

Preschool children are generally inaccurate at evaluating past and predicting future performance. The present study examines the effect of performance feedback on the accuracy of preschoolers’ predictive judgments and tests whether performance feedback acts as an anchor for postdictive judgments. In Experiment 1, preschool children (n = 40) solved number patterns, and in Experiment 2 they solved object patterns (n = 59). The results in both experiments revealed, firstly, that children receiving performance feedback made more accurate predictive judgments and lowered their certainty after their incorrect answer. Secondly, the children relied on performance feedback more than on actual task experience when making postdictive judgments, indicating that performance feedback was used as an anchor for subsequent postdictive judgments.
