Pregnancy, stress and coping techniques: a review
Authors: Amin Fiza , Tali Tavseef Ahmad , Shah Sieqa , Ara Rifat
Published: February 2024

Pregnancy is a common time to experience stress. Stress during pregnancy might be brought on by changes in your daily routine and physical discomforts. Certain forms of stress might result in issues like premature birth and major health problems like high blood pressure. Find out about strategies to help you deal with some of the stress in your life, such as consulting a licensed mental health professional, your healthcare provider, or friends and family. Stress relief techniques include deep breathing, meditation, and relaxation techniques. Even while stress is more common and has negative effects on both the mother and the child, there is still a lack of study on specific stress during pregnancy and coping mechanisms to avoid those negative effects.
Accessibility as a critical factor of urban growth in Amazon – Brazil: an application of Plan-Process Theory Lourenço´s Model
Authors: Tobias Maisa Sales Gama , Ferreira Jader Duarte
Published: February 2024

Urban growth analysis and territorial plans made by different levels of government in the Amazon brings Santarem as urban center of reference, with strategic location. The evaluation of plans developed in this article is an application of Plan-Process Theory Lourenço´s Model, which deals the implementation of plans between the phases of decision-making and the acts of investment. The methodology starts from the historical analysis of urban development determinants, from the perspective of plans implemented in the place, highlighting the critical factors of results from these planning actions. Among the key findings, lack of planning policies for local needs, absence of problems such as social inequality and poor accessibility. Therefore, system innovation for a modal network does not yet reflect, through the plans, as an opportunity to improve accessibility in the urban areas of the Amazon.

Under the conditions of changing social environment, first-year students of higher education institutions are at risk of stress, as well as entering antisocial groups. Since they have to adapt to the new social and educational environment, it can have an impact on their academic performance and lead to negative consequences of an objective and subjective nature. In this regard, the article examines the issue of influence of the activities of student sports club of the educational organization of higher education on the process of social adaptation of students. With the help of a survey conducted among students, their attitude and possible directions of student involvement in the activities of student sports clubs in the Russian higher education system were substantiated. Based on the system-activity and personality-oriented approaches, a model of the student sports club activity at the I. Kant BFU is theoretically justified and developed. The dependence of the integral level of adaptation of students and their involvement in the activities of the student sports club is substantiated.
Hygroscopic all-polymer composite for moisture management and evaporative cooling
Authors: Gao Yan , Li Yang , Chen Xiao
Published: February 2024

Adsorption-based water management and evaporative cooling personal thermal management (PTM) technologies offer great potential to achieve adaptive temperature regulation, wide applicability, and low energy consumption. However, designing high-performance and durable hygroscopic composites that combine efficient heat dissipation with wear comfort is a challenge. More recently, Xu et al. used two hygroscopic polymers and crosslinking strategies to develop moisture-absorbent fabrics with excellent hygroscopicity, durability, ductility, air permeability, washable resistance, and antibacterial properties. This work paved an intriguing PTM application prospect of an all-polymer hygroscopic composite to achieve energy-efficient moisture sorption and evaporative cooling.
Religion at the Times of Changes in Łódź Organizational, Spatial and Social Structures
Authors: Dzieciuchowicz Jerzy , Klima Ewa , Mordwa Stanisław , Retkiewicz Wojciech
Published: February 2024

The influence of religion on shaping the urban space has to be considered in at least two ways. Firstly, we have cities being created around the places of religious worship (Jackowski 2003, Beaujeu-Garnier, Chabot 1971). Secondly, we have places of religious worship created within the urban space. In both cases, we are dealing with the term of 2 religious space, which by analogy to S. Liszewski’s tourist space (1999) and A. Jackowski’s pilgrimage space (2004) can be defined as subspace of geographical space, created in relevance to its functions. It also seems that for the religious space of the city, its meaning defined by people is no less important than its functions. This article aims to analyze the changes of religious space in Łódź. The issue is presented in relation to the evolution of religious structure of Łódź citizens, from the early 19th century to present times. Various source materials have been used to create this article: census data, archive documents, interviews and questionnaires.
On Social Emergence: A Non-Dichotomous Approach to Qualitative Tool Design
Authors: Biały Kamila , Piasek Piotr F.
Published: February 2024

The narrative biographical interview is a research tool that has been successfully used to study the reproductions of the overall constellations of social life that occur within an individual life. The entire methodological proposal as well as the issue of reproduction are based on a dichotomous epistemology. In the presented article, we analyse this issue of reproduction as it appears in Fritz Schütze’s work. Next, we describe a proposal for an alternative narrative interview – interview about the present based on a non-dichotomous epistemology. In our opinion, this epistemological perspective addresses the issue of reproduction in a completely different way. And, more importantly it introduces in the field of sociology an issue of emergence. To illustrate this non-dichotomous logics, we are using the material from one of the interviews from the research data collection.
Torty z piasku, parafinowe kremy i owoce z plastiku – czyli futuryzm w dyskursie polskiej prasy kobiecej z lat 1970–1979
Authors: Węgiel Anna
Published: February 2024

Celem artykułu jest zaprezentowanie futuryzmu jako ideologii kryjącej się w dyskursie porad żywieniowych publikowanych na łamach polskiej prasy kobiecej w latach siedemdziesiątych dwudziestego wieku. Futuryzm jest jedną z cech ideologii tzw. wysokiego modernizmu, a jego najbardziej charakterystyczne przejawy to: umiłowanie przyszłości wraz ze snuciem utopijnych wizji o jej kształcie, chęć podboju technologicznego świata natury, a także historycyzm – wiara w liniowy rozwój ludzkości, który zmierza do „nowoczesności”. Badanie empiryczne polegało na odnalezieniu cech futuryzmu w tekstach porad żywieniowych z dwóch najpopularniejszych polskich czasopism lat siedemdziesiątych: „Przyjaciółki” oraz „Kobiety i Życia”. Wybraną metodą była zorientowana socjologicznie analiza dyskursu. Analiza zgromadzonego materiału pozwala twierdzić, że futuryzm był istotnym czynnikiem ideologicznym kształtującym porady żywieniowe publikowane na łamach prasy w PRL w tym okresie. Obserwacja ta rzuca nowe światło na kulturę kulinarną PRL i otwiera nowe możliwości interpretacyjne.
Labor outsourcing in Brazil: an atypical contract that legitimizes the legal and social setback
Authors: Zbucka-Gargas Marta , Iannotti da Rocha Cláudio
Published: February 2024

Labor law reform in Brazil has fundamentally changed the archetype of labor law, both in terms of substantive law and procedural law, from an individual and collective perspective. The new regulations have introduced the normative regulation of outsourcing in Brazil, which was previously absent. The issue identified in the following article is: labor outsourcing resulting from the Labor Reform can be considered a Brazilian legal advance or failure. Practice shows that Law No. 13,429 lowered the level of labor rights and allowing outsourcing in the main business of the borrowing company, without equalizing rights between the employees.
Ochrona przed mobbingiem w niepracowniczych stosunkach zatrudnienia
Authors: Dzięgo Beata
Published: February 2024

Wraz z pojawianiem się nowych form zatrudnienia i wzrostem ich popularności istotnymi zagadnieniami stają się prawa pracownicze, pewność zatrudnienia oraz możliwość ich analogicznego zastosowania. Jedną z kwestii wartych rozważenia jest mobbing. Specyfika tej instytucji pozwala na zastosowanie jej jedynie w przypadku stosunku pracy, co nie pozostawia osoby zatrudnionej na podstawie umowy cywilnoprawnej bez ochrony. Podobnie jak osoba wykonująca pracę w stosunku pracy może ona dochodzić swoich roszczeń w przypadku naruszenia jej dóbr osobistych, a definicja mobbingu może posłużyć jako wskazówka do interpretacji indywidualnej sytuacji i rozpoznania naruszania praw osoby wykonującej pracę zarobkową w innej formie.
Zbiegi tytułów do ubezpieczeń społecznych
Authors: Brzeziński Artur
Published: February 2024

Nie budzi wątpliwości ustalanie, jakiemu rodzajowi ubezpieczeń społecznych dana osoba podlega, jeżeli mamy do czynienia z zatrudnieniem będącym jedynym źródłem przychodów, tj. zatrudnieniem na podstawie umowy o pracę, prowadzeniem własnej działalności, wykonywaniem pracy na podstawie umowy zlecenia itd. Problem pojawia się, gdy dana osoba uzyskuje jednocześnie dochody z kilku różnych źródeł, np. jest jednocześnie pracownikiem zatrudnionym na podstawie umowy o pracę oraz prowadzi własną działalność gospodarczą lub jest emerytem, pracuje oraz dodatkowo prowadzi działalność gospodarczą. Zbieg tytułów do ubezpieczenia zachodzi wówczas, gdy jedna osoba spełnia jednocześnie warunek do objęcia obowiązkiem ubezpieczeń co najmniej z dwóch tytułów. Ubezpieczeni, których podstawa wymiaru składek na ubezpieczenia emerytalne i rentowe z tytułu stosunku pracy, członkostwa w spółdzielni, służby, pobierania świadczenia szkoleniowego, świadczenia socjalnego w przeliczeniu na okres miesiąca jest niższa od minimalnego wynagrodzenia za pracę, podlegają obowiązkowo ubezpieczeniom społecznym również z innych tytułów – art. 9 ust. 1a ustawy o systemie ubezpieczeń społecznych. Przeliczeniu nie podlega podstawa wymiaru składek, jeżeli umowa o pracę wykonywana jest w niepełnym wymiarze czasu pracy, z wynagrodzeniem ustalonym w kwocie niższej od minimalnego wynagrodzenia. Osoba zatrudniona przez kilku różnych pracodawców na podstawie różnych umów o pracę podlega obowiązkowo wszystkim ubezpieczeniom społecznym i ubezpieczeniu zdrowotnemu z tytułu wykonywania każdej z tych umów. Wspomniana problematyka w niniejszym rozdziale nabiera szczególnego znaczenia w kontekście ewentualnych naruszeń prawa związanych ze stosowaniem nietypowych form zatrudnienia. Problemy pojawiają się również, gdy dochodzi do błędnego rozstrzygnięcia celowego lub niecelowego zbiegu tytułów w kontekście ubezpieczeń społecznych, bądź gdy stosunek zobowiązaniowy zostaje tak skonstruowany, aby w sposób sztuczny wygenerować zbieg tytułów do ubezpieczeń. Jest to kwestia niezwykle istotna, która niesie ze sobą potencjalne konsekwencje prawne oraz skutki dla uczestników systemu ubezpieczeń społecznych. Refleksja ta wywołuje pytania dotyczące konieczności precyzyjnej regulacji prawnej oraz monitorowania takich sytuacji, aby zapobiec nadużyciom i naruszeniom prawa w obszarze zatrudnienia i ubezpieczeń społecznych. Badania i analizy w tym zakresie mają kluczowe znaczenie dla rozwijania bardziej skutecznych i adekwatnych ram prawnych, które mogą dostosować się do zmiennych realiów rynku pracy oraz zapewnić uczciwość i przejrzystość w systemach zabezpieczenia społecznego jako ochrona społeczna.
The Effect of 2,4-D (2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid) and Kinetin (6-Furfuryl Amino Purine) Concentrations on The Induction of Embryogenic Callus In Porang (Amorphophallus muelleri Blume) In Vitro
Authors: Agung Nadya Rahadianti , Huddi Darul , Putri Amalia Nasyira , Resmisari Ruri Siti
Published: February 2024

Porang (Amorphophallus muelleri Blume) belongs to the family Araceae and holds significant potential for cultivation in Indonesia. It contains more than 50% glucomannan in its corms. Porang is commonly commercialized as flour and chips and has found extensive use in the food, cosmetics, chemical, pharmaceutical, and coating industries. Conventional propagation of Porang often takes a long time, approximately 2-3 years, making it unable to meet the demand for Porang seedlings quickly. In vitro propagation using plant growth regulators 2,4-D and kinetin is being explored to induce embryogenic callus, offering a solution for large-scale cultivation of high-quality Porang within a shorter timeframe. This research adopts an experimental approach employing a completely randomized design (CRD) with two factors. The first factor is the auxin 2,4-D (2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid), and the second factor is the cytokinin kinetin. The optimal concentration for inducing embryogenic callus in Porang is found to be 2,4-D at 1 mg/L and kinetin at 0 mg/L, resulting in intermediate callus with a yellowish-brown color and a wet weight of 2.43 grams.

Psychometric Validation of the Stress Appraisal Measure in a Sample of Individuals With Multiple Sclerosis
Authors: Iwanaga Kanako , Schiferl Jenna , Sampath Shruti , Chan Fong , Rumrill Phillip D.
Published: February 2024

People with multiple sclerosis (MS) must often cope with a high level of stress. Lazarus and Folkman’s (1984) stress-appraisal-coping theory described the importance of stress appraisals to determine which behavioral responses and coping strategies an individual draws upon following stressful events. One of the most highly validated stress appraisal measures is the Stress Appraisal Measure (SAM; Peacock and Wong, 1990), which was primarily developed as a dispositional measure,SAM-Revised(SAM-R: Roesch and Rowley, 2005). However, it has not been validated in adults with MS. The purpose of this study was to confirm the measurement structure and psychometric properties of theSAM-Rwith a sample of adults with MS. A confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to examine the factor structure ofSAM-Rin 477 adults with MS. CFA confirmed the three-factor structure:χ2/df= 3.94 (less than 5), comparative fit index = .95 (higher than .90), root mean square error of approximation = 0.079 (90% confidence interval [0.070, 0.087]; less than .08), and the standardized root mean square residual = .046 (less than .08). The three factors include (a) challenge appraisal, (b) threat appraisal, and (c) centrality appraisal. Correlations among these three factors and external measures of related concepts provided evidence of the validity of these factors. TheSAM-Ris a psychometrically validated measure that can be incorporated in rehabilitation counseling, mental health, and healthcare settings to assess the stress appraisal style. Rehabilitation and health professionals can use it to evaluate the effectiveness of psychosocial interventions in helping people with MS to manage stressful life events and improve their mental health.

Judith Butler and the Ethics and Politic of Bodies: Vulnerability, Precarity, and Open Solidarity
Authors:   The Criticism and Theory Society of Korea, Jeong Haeook
Published: February 2024

This study commences by engaging with Judith Butler's critical inquiry into the enduring significance of the body amidst the rapid advancements in fields like Neuralink and generative AI. Butler’s early works including Gender Trouble, Bodies that Matter, and Excitable Speech, extensively investigate the ‘resignification’ of oppressive norms and coercive interpellations, a focus that initially seemed to underplay the role of physical embodiment. Since Precarious Life(2004), however, Butler’s scholarship has notably shifted to more explicitly incorporate the bodily dimension. She extends her inquiry beyond the ‘re-signification’ in language and discourse to explore how the body itself can exert influence and drive transformative change in the world.
This paper aims to explore contemporary reflections on the body's politics, especially in the context of global events like the pandemic. It examines Butler’s recent works, including What World Is This?, to understand how the body's openness, vulnerability, interdependence, entanglement, and porosity may catalyze transformative shifts towards a more livable world. The paper also examines the unequal distribution of precarity and potential solidarity forms among bodies as a form of resistance.
To fulfill these aims, the paper first reviews Butler’s views on bodies during the pandemic, drawing on phenomenologists like Maurice Merleau-Ponty, with a special emphasis on corporal sensory perception, interdependency, and interconnectedness. It then introduces the concept of precarity to deepen the discussion on the body’s politics. Furthermore, it evaluates forms of solidarity, exemplified by movements like #BlackLivesMatter and #NiUnaMenos, to explore how Butler’s theory advocates for an open solidarity that moves beyond identity politics. The study concludes by assessing how Butler’s insights provide timely and profound contributions to the current era of crisis.
The Impossible Rebirth: The Subjectivities in the Age of Finance Capitalism in The Razor’s Edge
Authors:   The Criticism and Theory Society of Korea, Sohn Ilsu
Published: February 2024

This paper analyzes how Somerset Maugham’s The Razor’s Edge (1944) represents the advent of finance capitalism during the interwar years. Specifically, this paper pays attention to a series of subjectivities featuring the social milieu based on finance capital set loose over the globe. Maugham has been criticized for focusing on the characters’ externals in a conventional fashion. As a result, he has been marginalized from the academic discourse on the early twentieth-century literature dominated by modernist studies. This paper will prove that Maugham’s attention to the externals is part of his literary design for effectively representing characters who embody the uncontrolled and perpetual proliferation of finance capital without an independent and reflective consciousness. In particular, Larry, the novel’s central character, becomes disillusioned with the declining Western civilization and then travels to foreign soils in search of the opportunity to be symbolically reborn. This paper will prove that the novel eventually debunks the fetishistic nature of this imperial search and unveils it as another cultural expression of supranational finance capitalism. Ultimately, this paper aims to contribute to the reevaluation of Maugham’s literary achievement by highlighting his pioneering representation of the post-modern world.
A Study of Key Trends in Russian Cinema for 2022~2023
Authors:   East European and Balkan Institute, Hong Sangwoo
Published: February 2024

This article is an attempt to examine Russian cinema as a whole in 2022-2023. Among the main trends in Russian cinema over the past two years, the first thing to be noted is its relationship to contemporary Russian society and history. Many of the Russian films that received high praise at home and abroad, were selected for prestigious international film festivals, including Cannes and Rotterdam, and were presented at major Russian film festivals or won prizes. In this article, we will focus on Kirill Serebrennikov's The Wife of Chaikovsky, which was selected in competition at the Cannes Film Festival in 2022, The Bullfinch(2023), directed by Boris Hlebnikov, one of the most important auteurs of contemporary Russian cinema, which was the opening film of the 2023 Moscow International Film Festival, Fairy Tail(2022), which had its world premiere at the Rotterdam International Film Festival, by Alexander Sokurov, who is considered a master not only of contemporary Russian cinema but also of world cinema, and finally, The Camel's Wayh, by Vitaly Suslin, who is one of the most Russian filmmakers of his generation and has built a unique body of work based on a very Russian setting. The second major trend in contemporary Russian cinema that I will discuss is the emergence of Russian regional cinema. I will analyze the film Pardon(2023), directed by Ainur Askarov from Bashkortostan, Plague(2023), directed by Yakutian director Dmitry Davydov, one of the most highly regarded films by international critics, and Aita (2023), directed by Yakutian director Stepan Burnashev. Contemporary Russian cinema is characterized by diversity, locality, and the presence of female directors. In other words, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russian cinema has achieved unprecedented diversity, and not only central filmmakers centered in Moscow and Petersburg, but also local filmmakers including Yakutia are actively producing works.
Syntactic Structure of Light Verb Constructions
Authors:   East European and Balkan Institute, Kim Inchon
Published: February 2024

This paper provides a well-founded approach to the type of complex predicate where two syntactic elements serve as a single predicate in Czech. Czech complex predicates are composed of so-called ‘Verbe support(fr.)’ in the verbal part and predicative nouns in nominal part. This type of construction can be found inter-linguistically in many of languages, such as Czech, English and Korean that are typologically different. The study of the complex predicates lies in the question of ‘to what extent can the syntactic and semantic properties of multi-word units be deduced from the properties of their respective parts.’ This study examines the fundamental grammatical properties of Czech complex predicates, the lexical and semantic properties of the Verbe support as a functional category and the predicative nouns as a semantic core of the construction, based on their complex interaction in the frame of the constructions with light verbs.
The Benefits of Cross-Border Corporate Venture Capital Investment on the Likelihood of a Venture Firm’’s IPO
Authors:   IAGBT, p p , p p , p p
Published: February 2024

Purpose - Extant research indicates that CVC investments create value for venture firms and generally enhance the likelihood of a successful venture exit. In particular, despite the globalization of CVC investments, the impact on venture firm exit performance has been largely overlooked. Thus, this study explores the impact of cross-border CVC investments on the likelihood of a venture firm’s IPO. We argue that the foreignness of CVCs increases the likelihood of IPO, but this positive relationship is weakened when CVC units have a tight structure.
Design/Methodology/Approach - The hypotheses are tested with 1,874 high-technology venture firms in the U.S. that received CVC investments between 1994 and 2009. A two-stage analysis was employed to address potential selection bias. In the first stage, we employed a probit model to predict the probability of receiving cross-border CVC investment. In the second stage, we conducted a probit regression analysis on the likelihood of IPO, incorporating the inverse Mills ratio to address selection bias.
Findings - We found that the foreignness of CVCs increases the likelihood of a venture firm’s IPO. However, this positive impact is weakened when CVCs have a tight governance structure.
Research Implications - This study highlights the benefits of cross-border CVC investments and enriches resource dependence theory by reconciling it with institutional theory, depicting the importance of both reducing resource constraints to create value for venture firms and the institutional logic pursued by CVCs. This study suggests that entrepreneurs should be careful with CVC units that prioritize strategic objectives.

Objetivos: Colaborar com o conhecimento acerca da evolução histórica do conceito e da classificação da esquizofrenia e atualizar sobre aspectos clínicos. Metodologia: Foram analisadas todas as edições das classificações da Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS) e da Associação Psiquiátrica Americana (APA), principais livros-texto de psiquiatria, assim como artigos sobre a evolução conceitual da esquizofrenia e publicações recentes relativas à revisão das classificações. Resultados: São descritos os marcos históricos da evolução conceitual da esquizofrenia e o desenvolvimento da estrutura e da nomenclatura adotadas nas classificações da OMS e da APA, de 1948 até os dias atuais. Mostram-se também as mudanças ocorridas na categorização dos subtipos em cada versão publicada. Discorre-se sobre a inclusão dos descritores dimensionais utilizados atualmente na caracterização do quadro clínico da esquizofrenia, apresentam-se os requisitos diagnósticos da CID-11, faz-se uma comparação entre os padrões de curso com a CID-10 e lista os especificadores de gravidade. Conclusão: Nas últimas versões das classificações atuais estão consolidadas as modificações decorrentes do contínuo avanço do conhecimento a respeito da esquizofrenia. Os profissionais de saúde precisam conhecer essas inovações a fim de melhor qualificar a prática da atenção aos pacientes e poderem estabelecer trocas de informações clínicas baseadas em conceitos mais uniformes.
Consideration of liquid biomarkers for surveillance of HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer in veteran populations
Authors: Smith Joshua D. , Spector Matthew E. , Brenner J. Chad , Maxwell Jessica H.
Published: February 2024

The incidence of human papillomavirus (HPV)-related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) will continue to rise in the United States over the next several decades. Thus, efforts to reduce treatment intensity, mitigate long-term physical and psychological sequelae of treatment, and simplify surveillance regimens for patients with HPV-related OPSCC are critical. Liquid biomarkers, namely plasma circulating tumor HPV DNA (ctDNA), have shown considerable promise for improvements in these domains by guiding personalized and adaptive treatment de-escalation paradigms and predicting disease recurrence in the survivorship period. Preliminary reports suggest an even broader impact of plasma HPV ctDNA assays for HPV-related OPSCC surveillance beyond the mere detection of cancer recurrence and metastasis. For instance, such assays may reduce the need for costly imaging studies, alleviate the financial toxicities of survivorship care, and improve care access and patient satisfaction. Currently, veterans and underserved populations are disproportionately affected by the financial burden of cancer surveillance and survivorship care. These disparities negatively impact oncologic outcomes, healthcare access, and utilization, specifically among veterans with HPV-related OPSCC. As such, we posit that HPV ctDNA monitoring may be of unique benefit and impact in the surveillance period for these patients specifically. Herein, we provide a narrative review of the current literature supporting the formal clinical evaluation of HPV ctDNA monitoring in veterans with HPV-related OPSCC.
Hydroxychloroquine as a potential therapy for ANCA-associated vasculitis
Authors: Jain Sahil , Sangle Shirish R. , Kim Sangmi , John Susan , D’Cruz David
Published: February 2024

Antimalarial agents have been used to treat various autoimmune rheumatic diseases for over a century. Hydroxychloroquine is a safe, effective and inexpensive antimalarial drug with additional antithrombotic, cardioprotective, antimicrobial, and anti-neoplastic benefits. It has been used extensively in various diseases, especially systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis; however, it has not been used in anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody associated vasculitides (AAVs). There exists a significant unmet need for safe and inexpensive treatments for non-severe AAV or those with low-grade “grumbling” disease activity who do not warrant significant escalation of therapy but who remain at risk of disease flares and damage accumulation. Hydroxychloroquine may be an option to help fill this void. Although the mechanisms of action of Hydroxychloroquine are not fully understood, it interacts with various inflammatory mediators involved in the pathogenesis of AAV. Based on these benefits, along with the unmet need in AAV, we present evidence to support the use of Hydroxychloroquine as a potential therapy for AAV.

En el presente artículo se analizan las representaciones sociales que los estudiantes universitarios experimentaron durante el periodo de confinamiento debido a la pandemia por el COVID-19 con respecto a la decisión de continuar sus estudios, a pesar de los problemas generados por el cierre de las actividades presenciales en instituciones educativas. Se examina la situación ocurrida en la región noroeste de Chihuahua, que involucra al menos diez municipios. Este estudio es el resultado de una investigación mixta de carácter descriptivo, que incluyó una encuesta de 69 ítems aplicada en la primavera de 2021 a 313 estudiantes de cinco programas académicos diferentes de la División Multidisciplinaria de la UACJ en Nuevo Casas Grandes. Los resultados permiten establecer que para los estudiantes fue una experiencia negativa la educación a distancia, principalmente debido a problemas de gestión emocional, falta de habilidades en la administración del tiempo y acceso limitado a la tecnología, lo que provocó emociones no positivas. Sin embargo, negaron percibir un bajo rendimiento académico o tener dificultades en la interacción con los docentes o compañeros.
