Corporate social responsibility: Polish experience and Ukrainian perspectives
Authors: Фадєєва В. Е.
Published: September 2019

Global issues of 21 century, such as ecological concerns, depletion of natural resources, informatization, transition to the machine production and switch to the predominance of intellectual work have led to the changes in the social role of large business. Best world practice along with UN recommendations strongly support the development of socially responsible business. Global network of multinational companies allows them to predetermine political and social situation in many countries sometimes more effectively than traditional politics. Positive correlation between business performance and purchasing power of citizens accentuate the importance of investment into social development. Consequently, the corporate social responsibility (CSR) becomes one of the cornerstones of sustainable development. This paper aims to describe basic principles of CSR and its historical development, to analyze pros and cons of different approaches to CSR and discuss the perspectives of its implementation into Ukrainian economy using Polish experience. E. Garriga and D. Mele in their article «Corporate social responsibility Theories: Mapping the Territory» managed to perfectly describe almost all theories of CSR, allowing many scientists to use their results. In spite of positive social influence of CSR, its impact on economic still remains unclear. It may be connected to the relatively short follow-up for the tracking of economic changes and the difficulties for the estimation of such complex phenomenon. Transitional Ukrainian economy just have started the implementation of corporate social responsibility (CSR), and sometimes it lack the deep understanding of what that means and how that works. Polish experience may become a good example for eastern neighbor`s companies and government, and help to build new relations between large business and society.
Obscure philosophical heritage of Christian FÜrchtegott Gellert: An Experience of ConceptualizationObscure philosophical heritage of Christian FÜrchtegott Gellert: An Experience of Conceptualization
Authors: Добролюбська Ю. А. , Присяжнюк O. М.
Published: September 2019

In the department of Rare Books at the Library of the South Ukrainian National Pedagogical University named after K. D. Ushinsky two distinctive works by Christian Fürchtegott Gellert published in 1790 were found. The current level of the use of early publications as sources for historical research is largely dependent on the accounting and scientific level of describing the sights of print within the institution. This fact is specifically important for the early printed books and rare editions as the study of those allow restoration of historical memory and the eliminate white spots in the history. Almost forgotten by descendants, the work of C. F. Gellert represents a holistic philosophical, historical and pedagogical system whose specificity is determined by the personality of the writer: his spirituality, worldview, life, and experience. Gellert’s theoretical treatises represent not only a collection of his didactic ideas and concepts, but they are also the philosophical and aesthetic foundation of the literary work of the author. All works created by Gellert, whether fables and parables, moving comedies and romance, spiritual wings and songs, have a theoretical justification. At the same time, it is important for the author to translate their ideas and views into life. Also, to visualize the artistic material to show the reader the possibility of solving educational problems with a help of artistic creativity.
V. K. Lypynsky’s sociological thought: constitutional state, hetmanat, the grainproducing class
Authors: Ніколенко В. В.
Published: September 2019

The article presents the sociological aspects of the scientific heritage of V. K. Lipinsky. Emphasis is placed on the great theoretical and practical contribution of V. K. Lipinsky to the processes of creating an independent Ukrainian state. The priority attention of the scientist to the use of sociological, political, and historical methods of scientific knowledge is noted. Certain research questions that were in the center of his attention are underlined, namely: the effective construction of state institutions; consolidation and solidarity of the Ukrainian society; patriotism education; development of traditions of the Ukrainian Cossacks; compromise interaction; the social significance of common historical experience; respect for human dignity; guaranteeing the rights and freedoms of the average citizen, as well as effective local self-government, social harmony and understanding, the development of civil and military institutions. It was noted that, in the opinion of V. K. Lipinsky, the integrating function, primarily the consolidation and solidarity of various social groups of the population into the Ukrainian political nation, is able to realize with the help of the legal hetman state; national elite; Ukrainian culture; Ukrainian state language, as well as the development of a class of grain growers, that is, free, enterprising people who effectively work on their own land. The active sociopolitical activity of V.K. Lipinsky, in particular, as one of the organizers of the Ukrainian Democratic Party of grain-growers, was recorded. The functioning of the party focused on the solution of the social contradictions of the whole society, and above all the peasants. It is emphasized that the scientist was constantly looking for ways to solve the problems of the impoverishment of the Ukrainian village, the lack of effective rural education, the lack of full attention to the professional activities of the rural teacher. At the same time, the main directions of modernization of Ukrainian society are presented, taking into account the modernization experience of successful countries of Western Europe and North America. It is noted that the practical paradigm consisting of at least three phenomena has become the basis for effective transformations: 1) the relevance (dichotomy) of the economic and social; 2) internal locus of psychological control of the average citizen; 3) the presence of European emancipative values in the public space.
Formulaic metadiscursive signalling devices in judgments of the Court of Justice of the European Union
Authors: McAuliffe Karen , Trklja Aleksandar
Published: September 2019

This paper investigates how paragraph initial metadiscursive lexical items serve as signalling devices in text organisation of judgments of the Court of Justice of the European Union (ECJ). The results of that investigation demonstrate that those metadiscursive items both shape a particular method of reasoning used by the ECJ, and have an impact on how readers process those texts.

Based on assumptions grounded in linguistics/legal linguistics that legal language is formulaic and repetitive in nature, the paper focuses on the use of repetitive items in ECJ judgments that perform metadiscursive rather than legal functions. Such items play a crucial role in the presentation of reasoning in judgments by signalling when and how various types of information occur in a discourse. The paper builds on established work in the field of linguistics that claims that legal reasoning can be understood from the utterances used in a text (Crystal and Davy, 1969), but importantly also considers the context in which judgments of the ECJ are produced and applied. Demonstrating the impact of language patterns on the legal reasoning of the ECJ is an inherently interdisciplinary exercise that involves the exploration of the cognitive dimension of the process. Thus, this paper contextualises the findings of the linguistic analysis carried out within the unique multilingual setting of the ECJ, using Koestler's theory of creativity and cognitive theories of text processing as the basis of analysis.

The analysis leads to the conclusion that not only do language patterns found in ECJ judgments shape the method of reasoning used by that Court, but also that those judgments are made up of ‘almost wholly automised’ sub-codes of grammar and syntax. This conclusion supports claims made in law and language studies and among EU law practitioners that ECJ judgments are created in a ‘lego-building block’ fashion. The linguistic research carried out here can thus be used to triangulate results of research from other fields to allow a more holistic understanding of supranational adjudication in the EU context to be developed. This in turn can offer new ways for understanding how a multilingual legal order functions, as well as allowing researchers to work towards limiting inconsistencies arising in such a legal order.

Authors: Aziz Moh. Ali , Subandi Bambang
Published: September 2019

This article reports on research conducted in 2018 about the dialectic of Muslim minority da'wah in the multicul­tural-metropolitan community in Pakuwon City Surabaya, using a qualitative descriptive approach. Findings illustrate Mus­lim minority in Pakuwon City has a strong religious identity and the pleasure of ukhuwah Islamiyah. This is sup­ported by the central role of the commodification agent, na­mely takmir (mosque committee) of the Al-Madani mosque. In additin, Muslim minority in Pakuwon City makes the Al-Ma­dani mosque a center for da'wah through oral, written, and social movement methods, such as religious sermon, religious forum, web-based media, zakat and qurban, and fundraising for social services. Another finding reveals that the dialectic proselytising of Muslim minority in the multicultural-metro­politan community in Pakuwon City Surabaya produces a sym­metrical environmental harmony which is in line with the satisfaction of the da'wah partners.

Professor Plantinga Pauw was invited to give a perspective on the Presbyterian Church of the United States of America’s adoption of a book of confessions rather than a single confessional standard. Her paper speaks of her experience of using the PC(USA)’s Book of Confessions both as a member of the church and as a teacher of doctrinal theology in a Presbyterian seminary. It describes the church’s current Book of Confessions, examines the reasons for its adoption, and provides examples of the benefits she believes it has provided to the church.
On Rational Delegations in Liquid Democracy
Authors: Bloembergen Daan , Grossi Davide , Lackner Martin
Published: September 2019

Liquid democracy is a proxy voting method where proxies are delegable. We propose and study a game-theoretic model of liquid democracy to address the following question: when is it rational for a voter to delegate her vote? We study the existence of pure-strategy Nash equilibria in this model, and how group accuracy is affected by them. We complement these theoretical results by means of agent-based simulations to study the effects of delegations on group’s accuracy on variously structured social networks.
Primarily about Primaries
Authors: Borodin Allan , Lev Omer , Shah Nisarg , Strangway Tyrone
Published: September 2019

Much of the social choice literature examines direct voting systems, in which voters submit their ranked preferences over candidates and a voting rule picks a winner. Real-world elections and decision-making processes are often more complex and involve multiple stages. For instance, one popular voting system filters candidates through primaries: first, voters affiliated with each political party vote over candidates of their own party and the voting rule picks a candidate from each party, which then compete in a general election.We present a model to analyze such multi-stage elections, and conduct the first quantitative comparison (to the best of our knowledge) of the direct and primary voting systems with two political parties in terms of the quality of the elected candidate. Our main result is that every voting rule is guaranteed to perform almost as well (i.e., within a constant factor) under the primary system as under the direct system. Surprisingly, the converse does not hold: we show settings in which there exist voting rules that perform significantly better under the primary system than under the direct system.
Group Fairness for the Allocation of Indivisible Goods
Authors: Conitzer Vincent , Freeman Rupert , Shah Nisarg , Vaughan Jennifer Wortman
Published: September 2019

We consider the problem of fairly dividing a collection of indivisible goods among a set of players. Much of the existing literature on fair division focuses on notions of individual fairness. For instance, envy-freeness requires that no player prefer the set of goods allocated to another player to her own allocation. We observe that an algorithm satisfying such individual fairness notions can still treat groups of players unfairly, with one group desiring the goods allocated to another. Our main contribution is a notion of group fairness, which implies most existing notions of individual fairness. Group fairness (like individual fairness) cannot be satisfied exactly with indivisible goods. Thus, we introduce two “up to one good” style relaxations. We show that, somewhat surprisingly, certain local optima of the Nash welfare function satisfy both relaxations and can be computed in pseudo-polynomial time by local search. Our experiments reveal faster computation and stronger fairness guarantees in practice.
Balancing Relevance and Diversity in Online Bipartite Matching via Submodularity
Authors: Dickerson John P. , Sankararaman Karthik Abinav , Srinivasan Aravind , Xu Pan
Published: September 2019

In bipartite matching problems, vertices on one side of a bipartite graph are paired with those on the other. In its online variant, one side of the graph is available offline, while the vertices on the other side arrive online. When a vertex arrives, an irrevocable and immediate decision should be made by the algorithm; either match it to an available vertex or drop it. Examples of such problems include matching workers to firms, advertisers to keywords, organs to patients, and so on. Much of the literature focuses on maximizing the total relevance—modeled via total weight—of the matching. However, in many real-world problems, it is also important to consider contributions of diversity: hiring a diverse pool of candidates, displaying a relevant but diverse set of ads, and so on. In this paper, we propose the Online Submodular Bipartite Matching (OSBM) problem, where the goal is to maximize a submodular function f over the set of matched edges. This objective is general enough to capture the notion of both diversity (e.g., a weighted coverage function) and relevance (e.g., the traditional linear function)—as well as many other natural objective functions occurring in practice (e.g., limited total budget in advertising settings). We propose novel algorithms that have provable guarantees and are essentially optimal when restricted to various special cases. We also run experiments on real-world and synthetic datasets to validate our algorithms.
Online Pandora’s Boxes and Bandits
Authors: Esfandiari Hossein , HajiAghayi MohammadTaghi , Lucier Brendan , Mitzenmacher Michael
Published: September 2019

We consider online variations of the Pandora’s box problem (Weitzman 1979), a standard model for understanding issues related to the cost of acquiring information for decision-making. Our problem generalizes both the classic Pandora’s box problem and the prophet inequality framework. Boxes are presented online, each with a random value and cost drawn jointly from some known distribution. Pandora chooses online whether to open each box given its cost, and then chooses irrevocably whether to keep the revealed prize or pass on it. We aim for approximation algorithms against adversaries that can choose the largest prize over any opened box, and use optimal offline policies to decide which boxes to open (without knowledge of the value inside)1. We consider variations where Pandora can collect multiple prizes subject to feasibility constraints, such as cardinality, matroid, or knapsack constraints. We also consider variations related to classic multi-armed bandit problems from reinforcement learning. Our results use a reduction-based framework where we separate the issues of the cost of acquiring information from the online decision process of which prizes to keep. Our work shows that in many scenarios, Pandora can achieve a good approximation to the best possible performance.
Approximation and Hardness of Shift-Bribery
Authors: Faliszewski Piotr , Manurangsi Pasin , Sornat Krzysztof
Published: September 2019

In the SHIFT-BRIBERY problem we are given an election, a preferred candidate, and the costs of shifting this preferred candidate up the voters’ preference orders. The goal is to find such a set of shifts that ensures that the preferred candidate wins the election. We give the first polynomial-time approximation scheme for the case of positional scoring rules, and for the Copeland rule we show strong inapproximability results.
Fair Knapsack
Authors: Fluschnik Till , Skowron Piotr , Triphaus Mervin , Wilker Kai
Published: September 2019

We study the following multiagent variant of the knapsack problem. We are given a set of items, a set of voters, and a value of the budget; each item is endowed with a cost and each voter assigns to each item a certain value. The goal is to select a subset of items with the total cost not exceeding the budget, in a way that is consistent with the voters’ preferences. Since the preferences of the voters over the items can vary significantly, we need a way of aggregating these preferences, in order to select the socially best valid knapsack. We study three approaches to aggregating voters’ preferences, which are motivated by the literature on multiwinner elections and fair allocation. This way we introduce the concepts of individually best, diverse, and fair knapsack. We study the computational complexity (including parameterized complexity, and complexity under restricted domains) of the aforementioned multiagent variants of knapsack.
The monolingual habitus of German society challenging the interests of an autochthonous minority language
Authors: Marten Heiko , Saagpakk Maris
Published: September 2019

This paper analyzes the LL in the city of Bautzen / Budyšin in Germany, a town which is frequently considered the “capital” of the Slavonic minority of the Sorbs. It focuses on the societal role of Sorbian in relation to practices and ideologies of mainstream German society. The vast majority of signs in Bautzen / Budyšin are in German only. Sorbian is essentially restricted to explicitly Sorbian institutions and to local and regional administration. Interviews conducted in shops and on the streets reveal that paternalistic attitudes common to perceptions of language policies and minority languages in Germany dominate; practices maintain the common monolingual habitus in German society. Members of the majority population show little awareness of Sorbian issues, and Sorbian signage is seen as a generous gesture but considered essentially unnecessary. Only in most recent times, a reaction by the Sorbian community has challenged these practices and attitudes.

No study examined the frequency of human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) in southwest China. This was a cross-sectional survey (The Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University, 10/2010 to 12/2011) in 150 patients who were hospitalized or volunteered for cervical cancer (CC) screening. A HPV typing kit was used to detect 24 types of HPV by the SPR technique. The HPV-positive rate was 34.8% in women with normal cytology and 92.9% in women with CC. The frequency of HPV16 increased from 9.4% for women with normal cytology to 28.9% for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)1, 41.4% for CIN2, 54.1% for CIN3, and 71.4% for CC (p < 0.001). The frequency of HPV18 increased from 0% for women with normal cytology to 2.6% for CIN1, 3.4% for CIN2, 5.4% for CIN3, and 21.4% for CC (p = 0.03). HPV40 was only found in one patient with CC (p = 0.04). There was no relation between HPV genotype and women’s age. In Kunming (southwest China), the frequency of HPV infection was 74.0% among women who underwent CC screening. HPV16 and HPV18 were the two most frequent genotypes. SPR could be of value for the screening of HPV infection.

The Role of Subject Teachers as Counselors in the Teaching Learning Process
Authors: Sutirna Sutirna
Published: September 2019

Teachers have three roles in carrying out their duties, namely the role of educators, instructors and mentors. The role as an educator is always required to be a role model in his steps both in the school environment and in the community, then the role as a teacher always provides knowledge in accordance with his field in a humanistic manner, while the role as a supervisor is to deliver students to be able to overcome their own problems with encouragement and attention to his personality. Misperception about the task of implementing guidance and counseling services in schools is only done by guidance and counseling teachers, it seems that there needs to be an improvement in the perception of subject teachers. Therefore, to change this, universities as prospective subject teacher printers must provide guidance and counseling courses with explanatory content leading to the role of subject teachers as supervisors.

INUNDACIONES, IMAGINARIOS NATURALES Y CONFLICTO SOCIAL. La polémica sobre la gestión de las crecidas del Ebro
Authors: COUCEIRO DOMÍNGUEZ Enrique
Published: September 2019

En el desencadenamiento de los ‘desastres naturales’, y específicamente de las inundaciones, ejerce una influencia determinante un factor simbólico-cultural: la concepción dominante de la dualidad naturaleza-sociedad. Investigar los desastres supone analizar la creación social de la vulnerabilidad; al respecto, existe controversia entre las distintas aproximaciones antropológicas alrededor de las consecuencias y eficacia de las estrategias de resistencia estructural frente a las de adaptación acomodaticia, como modos de afrontar tal vulnerabilidad. Esta controversia gira en torno al ambiguo concepto de resiliencia (capacidad de recuperación y/o capacidad de adaptación). Tras revisar las distintas posiciones, se sostiene un empleo ecléctico de la resiliencia que aliente el desarrollo activo y territorialmente discrecional de las capacidades de Resistencia-Recuperación-Adaptación. Con relación a esta aproximación teórica se examina el fenómeno de las crecidas del Ebro y del proceso causal por el que su índice de retorno, y los efectos destructivos sobre vitales recursos de las poblaciones ribereñas, se han incrementado dramáticamente desde el cambio de milenio.

En el proceso creativo, como en la organización de un viaje, necesitamos explorar, seleccionar y crear. En este artículo comparamos la disposición del individuo ante el paisaje con las del artista que viaja. Este artista-viajero expone su experiencia ante el espectador con un itinerario del mapa de su paisaje mental y con una actitud que coincide con la del romántico atraído por el abismo del viaje, como el que nos presenta Rafael Argullol en su obra “La atracción del abismo”, y con el viajero que Mathieu Kessler define en el “El paisaje y su sombra”. El acto creativo supone la activación de la conciencia mediante la utilización de la memoria. De igual forma, nosotras, como espectadoras, utilizamos nuestra memoria para interpretar los mapas y entender las claves de determinados artistas y así reconstruir sus paisajes vividos.

Este texto pretende mostrar o valor da passagem de uma etnografia individual e por vezes individualista e heroica, para uma etnografia colaborativa e em equipa mais credível cientificamente. A partir de uma investigação antropológica de um antropólogo europeu (Xerardo Pereiro) e um antropólogo latino-americano (Cebaldo de León), desenvolvida entre 2003 e 2013 em Guna Yala (Panamá). Esta região indígena autónoma na qual os gunas desenvolveram um modelo de turismo responsável. De uma forma dialógica etnográfica e biográfica apresentamos os desafios e problemas de um projeto de investigação longitudinal sobre antropologia do turismo e como eles foram resolvidos negociando as diferenças e a interculturalidade. Sublinhamos ao longo do texto como as identidades sociais dos antropólogos, as suas biografias, os seus conhecimentos e experiências e outras variáveis condicionam a construção de um conhecimento antropológico polifónico em articulação com a perícia intelectual, teórica, epistemológica, metodológica e técnica dos investigadores.

mundo, pois o letramento é o que faz a transformação e desenvolvimento social. Sem responsabilidade na aplicação e ensinamento do letramento pelas escolas não haverá a aprendizagem, a qual se processa em uma relação interativa entre o sujeito e a cultura em que vive. O irresponsável letramento afeta muitos fatores como o próprio Enem, que acaba refletindo nos resultados das provas e mostrando como os jovens entendem e se posicionam em problemas vivenciados em no país, como os propostos na redação, além de prejudicar na prática escolar em todas as áreas do saber, pois a compreensão e interação dos conteúdos só ocorrem quando ouve o letramento e consequentemente a prática social destes. A partir destas reflexões nota-se que a cultura do país precisa ser repensada sobre a importância da leitura e escrita para o letramento.

THE CULTURAL WORK IN THE ARMED FORCES OF UKRAINE (1991-2013)
Authors: Avtushenko I.
Published: September 2019

The main forms of cultural work in the Armed Forces of Ukraine for the period from 1991 to 2013 and their influence on the moral and psychological state of the servicemen and members of their families are analyzed in the article on the basis of archival sources and publications. The leisure and recreation of the servicemen play a vital role in removing the psychological burden that accumulates during the performance of military duties. In the organization of leisure of servicemen and their families a vital role was assigned to the houses of officers, clubs and houses of culture. For the organization of free time and rest of the personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, centralized activities were cared out by educational bodies. However, no less important role was played by the personal initiatives of servicemen and army workers to create entertainment and recreation for themselves and their peers. It should be noted that many cultural services remained inaccessible in remote and military camps with restricted access. The financial assistance in the organization of leisure and recreation was provided by the authorities and philanthropists. Nevertheless, there were not enough specialists capable of professionally organizing the work of military cultural institutions, as well as leisure of servicemen and their family members.

The dynamics of processes of human capital formation in the sphere of healthcare is investigated. The trends, processes and asymmetries in this area that accompany the gradual market transformation of the national health system are often characterized, and often provoke the formation of unproductive forms of human capital and the processes of fiktivization. The system of indicators for estimating nominal and real human capital is proposed. The dynamics of nominal human capital is estimated by the following indicators: the growth of the rate of the number of doctors of all specialties per 10 thousand population; the growth rate of the number of average medical personnel per 10 thousand population; the growth rate of the planned capacity of outpatient clinics for 10 thousand people. To assess the dynamics of nominal human capital: growth rate of the average life expectancy at birth (without gender differentiation); the growth rate of the disease per 100 thousand population (all diseases). According to our methodology, the growth of the index of real human capital shows progress in the medical sphere. The growth of the nominal human capital index shows an increase in spending on this area, and it does not always indicate progress, although its substantial reduction is alarming and requires a more detailed analysis. If real human capital grows faster than nominal, then healthcare activities are effective, and if on the contrary – in this area the processes of fictivization takes place. Recommendations for reducing the fiktivization processes in the sphere of healthcare are proposed, which include: development and implementation of a system for monitoring the quality of medical services on the basic data of the eHealth system; the further introduction of digital technologies into the national health system and, on this basis, – increasing the availability of analytical information for both medical professionals and researchers, and for the public, the dissemination of medical literacy and healthy lifestyles.

El artículo hace una reflexión histórica sobre el Impuesto sobre el Valor Agregado (IVA) en el contexto colombiano y sus implicaciones en la jurisprudencia nacional, haciendo énfasis en la relevancia de dicho tributo desde una perspectiva legal, social y económica. El objetivo de la investigación es analizar la incidencia de las modificaciones que ha sufrido el IVA con el fin de conocer sus implicaciones actuales desde la perspectiva jurídica y económica. Por tanto, a través de un análisis hermenéutico de fuentes doctrinales, legislativas y jurisprudenciales, se abordaron las transformaciones por las cuales ha pasado el IVA con los cambios de gobierno y las necesidades económicas del contexto. Tal análisis permite comprender como este impuesto es un tópico que requiere especial protección, pues la dilapidación de este la conlleva a la desigualdad social, la pobreza y en consecuencia sucumbe en el modelo de subdesarrollo, y por ende, estanca el progreso socio-económico del contexto colombiano.

El síndrome de Burnout cada vez es más frecuente en los trabajadores de la salud manifestándose con agotamiento emocional, despersonalización y baja realización personal, lo que afecta su labor, desempeño y la calidad del servicio prestado. Este estudio tiene como objetivo realizar una revisión sistemática-exploratoria del síndrome de Burnout en médicos durante los últimos siete años (2012-2018) en Iberoamérica, y para ello se realizó una revisión sistemática en 6 bases de datos (Redalyc, Scielo, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Medline y EBSCO) con los siguientes criterios de inclusión: artículos publicados en idioma español, inglés o portugués; médicos residentes, especialistas o generales; revistas indizadas; estudios transversales o descriptivos correlacionales; población mayor a 70 médicos, y estudios que implementaran el Maslach Burnout Inventory Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS) (Maslach & Jackson,1986) como método estandarizado. El instrumento de recolección utilizado fue la matriz de revisión documental, de la que resultaron seleccionados 52 artículos y de los cuales 23 cumplieron con los requisitos (anexo A: médicos generales, anexo B: médicos residentes; anexo C: médicos especialistas; y anexo D: médicos sin especificar). El país con más estudios fue México, seguido de Brasil y Colombia. Predominó el género masculino, ya que en este hay prevalencia general del síndrome con resultados por dimensiones del MBI-HSS, en niveles de alto, medio o bajo; así, para el estudio se destararon únicamente los resultados significativos en alguna de sus tres dimensiones.

En los artículos seleccionados se encontró que sí existe prevalencia (45,88 %) alta en agotamiento emocional y despersonalización y baja en realización personal en los médicos residentes. Este fenómeno se observó especialmente en el género masculino, y estaba correlacionado con las variables más significativas, como cursar segundo y tercer año de residencia, ser extranjero y estar cursando una residencia en especialidades quirúrgicas. De igual manera, los hallazgos muestran la vulnerabilidad en la que se encuentran médicos de padecer el síndrome de Burnout. Es por esto que este tema merece otros estudios para tratar su prevalencia y correlación con las variables, indagar la validez del MBI-HSS en nuestro contexto laboral e incentivar en la creación de un manual guía que ayude a la prevención y el afrontamiento del síndrome.

Introduction: Flipped classroom is a new pedagogical model in which students are provided with study resource material to develop a basic understanding of the topic before class, and in-class precious time is used for learner-centric activities. Accordingly the study objectives were to compare the effect of flipped and traditional classroom teaching method and to determine the student’s perception of flipped and traditional teaching method.Method: This was a non-randomized experimental study. A detailed multiple choice question based test was used to assess the knowledge gain. Another structured questionnaire on students’ perception on flipped classroom teaching and traditional teaching technique was used for both the groups.Results: A total of 112 students participated in this study. The mean assessment scores in the flipped and traditional classroom were not statistically significant. We observed in the current study that the qualitative response was better as compared to quantitative response.Conclusion: As per our qualitative observation, a hybrid of both traditional and flipped classroom teaching method can be used in the transition period until the acceptance for new innovative methods increase. Long term learning gain may be attained by improving motivation and engagement of students in learning process.

Background:  Although previous studies demonstrated an anticancer effect for the ligands of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) through activation of its anti-inflammatory responses, nevertheless the anti-tumor mechanism of PPARγ has not been intensively investigated. One of the molecules involved in cancer progression is toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4).Methods: B16F10 melanoma cells were cultured with or without LPS for 24 hr. The cells were subcutaneously injected to two groups of C57BL/6 mice. After the development of palpable tumors each group of animals were divide to four sub-groups and received pioglitazone in different dose ranges (0,10,50,100 mg/kg/day) for 10 days. At the end of the study, the expression of Tlr4, Myd-88, Nf-kb1 genes was evaluated by qRT-PCR in different groups in mice tumor. The TLR-4 protein expression was evaluated by IHC. TNF-α level in mice tumor and serum were measured by ELISA kits. Tumor volume was measured with Vernier calipers.Results: We observed that activation of PPARγ by its agonist, pioglitazone, reduces tumor volume, Tlr-4, Myd-88, Nf-kb1 mRNA expression, TLR4 protein expression and TNF-α production in melanoma tumor especially in groups that were injected with LPS –stimulated cells. Moreover, treatment of melanoma cells with pioglitazone showed that the inhibitory effects of pioglitazone on LPS-induced inflammatory responses were TLR4 dependent.Conclusions: The results indicate that pioglitazone, a PPARγ agonist, has a beneficial protective effect against melanoma via interfering with the TLR4-dependent signaling pathways.
