Las desigualdades de género en la profesión académica de las universidades nacionales argentinas: resultados de la encuesta APIKS (Academic Profession In The Knowledge-Based Society)
Authors: Nosiglia María Catalina , Fuksman Brian
Published: November 2022

Los estudios sobre la profesión académica argentina advierten sobre la conjunción de una multiplicidad de problemas que afectan el desarrollo de las funciones de las/os docentes. Uno de ellos se relaciona con las desigualdades de género, las cuales se expresan en la configuración de roles estereotipados y en el “techo de cristal”, entre otros fenómenos.

El presente estudio procura analizar la magnitud de las desigualdades de género en las universidades nacionales argentinas a partir de los resultados del estudio APIKS (Academic Profession in The Knowledge-Based Society). El diseño metodológico implicó la aplicación de una encuesta (2019) a una muestra representativa de académicos/as de universidades nacionales de la Argentina que respondieron sobre diversos aspectos de su profesión.

Se concluye que, pese a los avances registrados en materia de políticas universitarias para promover la paridad de género en el ámbito académico, aún persisten significativas desigualdades debido a factores institucionales y otros elementos externos. Frente a dicho fenómeno, las universidades y los gobiernos deben continuar fortaleciendo sus políticas para promover la paridad de género.

Published: November 2022

In early January 2021, Tanjungpinang was hit by floods due to extreme rainfall intensity, causing the affected communities to suffer material and non-material losses. The flood has occurred from 2011 to 2021. To minimize the impact of flood events, it is necessary to study the characteristics of rainfall both temporally and spatially. This is considered important because with this information the public can anticipate the impact of extreme rainfall at a certain time and location. This study aims to identify the Spatio-temporal characteristics of extreme rainfall in Tanjungpinang City which often causes floods. However, to identify the characteristics of rainfall, long data is needed. This study uses CHIRPS (Climate Hazards InfraRed Precipitation with Station) satellite data because the rainfall observation data at the Raja Haji Fisabilillah station is not available for 2012. The identification results show that the correlation criterion (R) value between rainfall observation data and CHIRPS satellite data is 0.688. This value is interpreted as "strong" to be used as an alternative study data. GEE (Google Earth Engine) as a cloud-based platform is used to identify the spatial and temporal characteristics of extreme rainfall. From the results of temporal identification, it is known that extreme rainfall occurs in January, April, and December. The results of spatial identification indicate that the area that has the highest average maximum rainfalls at the Bukit Bestari District area of 156.60 mm/day. This can then be confirmed by looking at the documentation of flood events that often occur in the area.

Published: November 2022

This research addresses the role of soft power in the American foreign policy. Moreover, it identifies the tools and resources of soft power and the extent of using soft power tools by decision-makers. The study assumes that there is a link between using soft power in foreign policy and the state's attractiveness and its ability to achieve its interest. To achieve the objectives of research and answer its questions the study followed the historical approach, analytical approach, and national interest approach. It was concluded that the soft power has played an active role in the U.S. foreign policy. However, it witnessed a decline between one presidential term and another, or when it sometimes merged with hard power. The findings distinguish this study from the existing literature as it ventures beyond theorizing the concept of soft power and presents practical examples. Moreover, in addition to highlighting the changing role of soft power in the U.S. foreign policy, this study has revealed a type of internal conflict as some leaders focus on hard power.
AN APPROACH TO THE STABILITY OF THE GAUSE-LOTKA-VOLTERRA COMPETITION ECOLOGICAL MODEL USING THE ROUTH-HURWITZ CRITERION
Authors: Sánchez Fabián Toledo , Alzate Pedro Pablo Cárdenas , Muñoz Carlos Alberto Abello
Published: November 2022

In the qualitative study of systems of ordinary differential equations, we can analyze the dynamics of the solutions by observing whether small variations or modifications in the initial conditions produce small changes in the future, this intuitive idea was formalized and studied by Lyapunov and reflects the concept of stability. For both linear and nonlinear systems of differential equations, we can analyze stability using criteria to obtain Hurwitz type polynomials. In this paper, we study the stability of a prey-predator model where three species compete considering the Gause effect generated by the Gause-Lotka-Volterra system, using an analytical stability technique to obtain Hurwitz-type polynomials called Routh-Hurwitz criterion. This criterion provides the necessary and/or sufficient conditions to analyze the dynamics of the system by studying the location of the roots of the characteristic polynomial associated with the system. This article describes and presents an analytical method to analyze the stability of the Gause-Lotka-Volterra model, based on the study of Hurwitz type polynomials. This technique allows establishing the asymptotic stability of the system by analyzing the location of the eigenvalues of the matrix associated with said system. The research results allow establishing a region of asymptotic stability of the Gause-Lotka-Volterra model that allows analyzing the interaction dynamics between the species.

Published: November 2022

This research aims to investigate whether the customers repurchase at their favorite online store after browsing several web online stores and evaluating the product to be purchased (online behavior). The research uses the Smart PLS Structural Equation Model (SEM) along with descriptive analysis to test a hypothesis. This study involves 21905 internet users who browsed the online store websites. Respondents were classified according to various factors such as their age, occupation, address, and visiting frequency to the online store. The questionnaire was designed based on a 5-point Likert model. Online behavior (free shipping evaluation, discount evaluation, and read testimonies) influences repurchase and online behavior affects loyalty. This research identified several types of loyalty behavior, including deciding to buy at their favorite web store, visiting their favorite web store even though they have browsed other web shops, and believing that their favorite website provides everything they need. Repurchase behavior affects loyalty. The repurchase behavior identified repeat purchases at the favorite online store and word-of-mouth recommendations. The researchers believe that both are very decisive factors in deciding to repurchase, even though other places have more attractive promotions. The combination of online and repurchase behaviors creates a 54% R2 value. This means that 54% of online and repurchase behaviors create loyalty.
SENIOR POLITICAL PERSONALITIES’ IMPACTS ON PUBLIC SECTOR ETHICAL LEADERSHIP PERCEPTIONS AND PRACTICES
Authors: Mahlala Sandiso , Mpehle Zweli , Netswera Fulufhelo
Published: November 2022

The concept of ethical leadership in the public sector is an intriguing and puzzling endeavor. It is assumed that political leaders, among other things, are first unable to distinguish between their personal and professional moral and ethical leadership dilemmas, and second, they are, either not acutely aware of, or ignorant of the effects that their personal ethical posture while in office has on the perceptions and practice of ethical behavior throughout the public sector and, thus, on the provision of the public goods and services. Leadership, who work for the government, in the public sector has a significant impact on their immediate reports and on the collective conscience of the country. Senior public sector executives naturally establish norms and values that go beyond current regulations and guide moral behavior inside and outside government. By evaluating the influences of the private and public personas of three previous South African state presidents, Nelson Mandela, Thabo Mbeki, and Jacob Zuma, this essay discusses the theories on which leadership is based. The conceptual basis of the research includes material that was studied from a range of sources, including scholarly publications, popular media pronouncements, and policies. The results imply that a leader’s ethical standing, conduct materialize in people’s beliefs and actions, and impact the provision of services.

Published: November 2022

This study focuses on the statistical analysis of the performance of students of different ages in solving electricity problems, after learning Physical Matter Sciences (PMS), Chemical Matter Sciences (CMS), Mathematical Sciences and Applications (MSA) and Mathematical and Computer Sciences (MCS) programs in the first year at Ibn Tofail University in Morocco. The student’s scores were obtained in mathematics (analysis and algebra), French, and electricity exams in terms of the 2017/2018 year. The data collected from the written student responses in the electricity exams were analyzed by SPSS software (version 25) using the multiple correspondence analysis method to study the influence of diverse variables: gender (M/F), age, and performance in analysis, algebra and French. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient (0.81) reflects the consistency and reliability of the used method, where 50% of the variability is explained by Dimension 1, and 36% is explained by Dimension 2. The discussion is made on the basis of previous studies conducted in secondary and university cycles of various contexts. It was found that students who perform better in solving electricity problems do not necessarily have a high level in the French teaching language. The teaching language correlates weakly with students' performance in solving electricity problems and their learning electrical concepts and phenomena. A positive correlation between performance in mathematics, particularly algebra, and performance in electricity is confirmed as stated elsewhere. So, the learning electricity at the university level cannot be done without deep mathematical knowledge. The analysis showed that the performance in electricity was not affected by the gender and age of the students.

Cold physical plasma is a partially ionized gas that generates various components identified as potential anticancer compounds. Due to its topical application, cold plasmas are suitable, especially in dermatological applications. We, therefore, tested the cold plasma effects in skin cancer cells in vitro. An atmospheric pressure argon plasma jet was used as the plasma source. The plasma exposure alone reduced the metabolic activity and induced lethal effects in a treatment time-dependent fashion in both cell lines investigated. This was accompanied by executioner caspases 3 and 7, cleavage indicative of apoptosis and reduced cell migration and proliferation. Recent research also indicated roles of novel indirubin derivatives with potent anticancer effects. Three candidates were tested, and reduced metabolic activity and viability in a dose-dependent manner were found. Strikingly, one compound exerted notable synergistic toxicity when combined with plasma in skin cancer cells, which may be promising for future in vivo experiments.

Objetivo: identificar factores de riesgo de fragilidad ósea asociados al aumento de costos totales de atención de fracturas en una clínica de Medellín, Colombia.

Diseño: estudio observacional con medidas retrospectivas y prospectivas tomadas de la historia clínica de pacientes atendidos por fractura y seguidos hasta su egreso.

Marco de referencia: Hospital Alma Máter de Antioquia, Medellín, Colombia.

Participantes: cuatrocientos cincuenta y dos pacientes diagnosticados con fracturas por fragilidad al ingreso.

Mediciones principales: prevalencia de factores de riesgo de fragilidad ósea, descripción de costos totales de atención según factores de riesgo, y estimación de asociaciones entre factores de riesgo y costos totales.

Resultados: diabetes (24.3%) y tabaquismo activo o pasivo (21%) fueron los factores de riesgo de fragilidad más prevalentes. Las fracturas de cadera fueron las más frecuentes y costosas (36%, Md: COP7 882 579). La atención de fracturas fue más costosa para pacientes fumadores activos o pasivos (Md: COP7 484 185), y de 75 años o más (Md: COP7 057 678). Según las estimaciones ajustadas significativas (p<0.05), los fumadores activos o pasivos tienen una mediana de costos de más de COP2 300 000 mayor que la de no fumadores, y cada año de edad incrementa la mediana de costos más de COP90 000.

Conclusiones: este estudio enfatizó que la fragilidad ósea es un problema de salud pública. Se identificó que factores como fumar activa o pasivamente, y la edad aumenta los costos de atención de fractura por fragilidad implicando mayores complicaciones y necesidad de servicios. Esto añade a la evidencia para fortalecer los programas de vigilancia que reduzcan la morbimortalidad y costos directos de esta enfermedad en Colombia.
Poliquistosis renal: más que los riñones
Authors: Cortés Guzmán José Santiago , Durán Gutiérrez Luis Fernando
Published: November 2022

Un hombre de 66 años con antecedente de insuficiencia cardiaca (IC), hipertensión arterial y enfermedad renal crónica ingresó al servicio de urgencias con síntomas de IC aguda descompensada. El ecocardiograma transtorácico mostró una insuficiencia aórtica severa. La angiografía coronaria mostró dilatación de la aorta ascendente (43 mm) y de la raíz aórtica. Una tomografía computarizada contrastada mostró múltiples lesiones quísticas > 5 mm en el hígado y los riñones (Figura 1. A y B); había un único quiste en la cabeza del páncreas (Figura 1. C). El paciente tenía niveles normales de enzimas hepáticas y un CA 19-9 elevado. Se diagnosticó una poliquistosis renal autosómica dominante (PQRAD). Se descartaron aneurismas en la circulación cerebral por angiografía. Al paciente se le reemplazó la aorta ascendente y la raíz aórtica. Egresó con mejoría de sus síntomas. La PQRAD puede afectar al hígado y al páncreas, y puede estar relacionada con aneurismas en la aorta o las arterias cerebrales.

The term Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) was proposed in 1886
and refers to mechanobullous diseases which are caused by
mutations in various structural proteins of skin and presents
1
as blistering of skin following minimal mechanical trauma.
The disease severity varies and there are some types that
affect only limited areas on body, whereas others can be
severe enough to cause involvement of generalized skin
surface along with mucosa, badly affecting the quality of life

Surgical site infection is one of the most common postoperative complications and third most frequently reported
nosocomial infection, accounting for 12-16% of all nosocomial infections among hospitalized patients. Infectious
complications are the main causes of postoperative morbidity in abdominal surgery. Wound infection is the most
common form is superficial wound infection occurring within the first week of surgery. Negative suction drain in
subcutaneous space has been shown to reduce the incidence of infection by evacuation of infected content, reduces and
evacuation of collected seroma in subcutaneous space. Negative suction improves the healing capacity of the wound by
reducing its bacterial load. Hence this study was carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of negative subcutaneous drain
in reducing surgical site infection in laparotomy patients.
