The global conditions of China's economic development: How does globalisation affect China in the context of Kornai's Frankenstein metaphor?
Authors: Losoncz Miklós
Published: November 2023

The objective of this study is to identify how globalisation influences China and how China affects globalisation in the context of János Kornai's Frankenstein metaphor. Kornai (2019) felt moral responsibility for unwillingly contributing with his advice in the 1980s to the birth of a modern version of Frankenstein, the Monster which his creators could not control. A crucial guiding principle of this paper is how the US and the advanced democratic economies can respond to Kornai's dilemma and reconcile the diverging requirements of economic interests with national security priorities. There is a research gap in the systematic mapping of the external economic environment on China's development. The primary conclusion of this paper is that China is less dependent on the rest of the world than the world on China. As the de-risking concept suggests, trade restrictions and domestic industrial policy measures focused on a narrow range of strategic sectors should be combined with unlimited trade and cooperation in the remaining non-strategic sectors. This study's conceptual and methodological framework can be used to analyse the relationship between advanced democratic economies and autocratic regimes in Kornai's Frankenstein dilemma.
Kornai's “main line of causality”: The case of socialist Albania and SFR Yugoslavia, with a special focus on their banking sectors' ownership structure
Authors: Kazinczy Eszter
Published: November 2023

Based on the structure of János Kornai's ‘main line of causality’, two unique country cases are compared within the former European socialist bloc: Albania and the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. The research provides a comparative analysis with an overview of the two countries' development between World War II and the fall of the socialist regimes. Special attention is paid to the period following the 1970s as the underlying reforms had been implemented in Yugoslavia by then, leading to fundamentally different socialist prototypes. Regarding the differences, the analysis also gives an insight into the structure of the two respective banking systems. Kornai's ‘main line of causality’ provides the framework for the current research, supplemented by the respective literature. The analysis concludes that despite the fact that all blocks of the causality line differed in the two systems, similar challenges had to be addressed during the transition period. Furthermore, Albania and the successor states of Yugoslavia reflected a range of common characteristics, which implies the relevance of path dependence.

Published: November 2023

This research aims to look at the cultural values of batobo, one of the Minangkabau cultures, in building family psychological resistance. The research method used qualitative approach with a descriptive phenomenological design. Data was collected through group interviews with 2 batobo groups and in-depth interviews with 3 community leaders selected through purposive sampling techniques. Data analysis using Nvivo 10.0 software. The results show that the batobo cultural values obtained in building family psychological resistance are: (i) form good individual characteristics such as flexibility, cohesiveness, (ii) make members have a favorable view of the future, (iii) live a more meaningful life by feeling happy with what they have, and (iv) have religious beliefs. These results indicate that batobo culture can increase people's psychological resistance. These results can encourage the community to continue to maintain batobo culture so that it can become an approach to creating a society that has psychological resistance.

Authors: Miguel Reyes José Luis , López Estrada Erika del Carmen , Arroyo Rojas Monserrat , Salas Hernández Jorge , Castañeda Valdivia Mauricio , Escobar Preciado Monserrat , Cano Salas Maria del Carmen
Published: November 2023

Introduction: Urbanization has increased the prevalence of asthma in lower- and middle-income countries. Severe eosinophilic asthma (SEA), a subtype of asthma, can be refractory to standard therapy. Biologics such as benralizumab target interleukin-5 and have demonstrated effectiveness in managing SEA. There exists no real-world evidence on the effectiveness of benralizumab in Mexico. Therefore, this study presents data on the role of benralizumab in managing SEA in Mexican patients.
Objective: The effectiveness of benralizumab on the quality of life (QoL), asthma control, lung function, symptoms of asthma, and benralizumab’s safety profile were assessed.
Methods: The study sample comprised 10 patients with SEA treated with a subcutaneous (SC) administration of benralizumab 30 mg once in 4 weeks for the first three doses followed by a dose every 8 weeks for 2 years. Laboratory tests, resting spirometry, and skin prick tests were conducted. Levels of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) were evaluated, when possible, with the intent to phenotype asthma, as T2 high or non-T2, before starting benralizumab therapy. The Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ), Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ), and Asthma Control Test (ACT) were administered to evaluate the effectiveness of benralizumab on asthma control and QoL.
Results: All patients showed significant symptom control, QoL, and lung function over 2 years. Mild adverse effects, such as headache and arthralgia, were observed.
Conclusion: Benralizumab appears to be a promising agent in controlling SEA. This study has focused on measuring tangible outcomes, such as a reduction in symptoms, a reduction in exacerbation, and an improvement in QoL. Thus, benralizumab may constitute an important addition to the arsenal of medications against SEA.
Henryk Mikołaj Górecki’s road to the Oratorio “Sanctus Adalbertus” in the context of the composer’s fascination with the person and teaching of St. John Paul II
Authors: Malecka Teresa
Published: November 2023

Henryk Mikołaj Górecki’s profound personal religiousnessbecame the source of his deep spiritual bond with the personality of Karol Wojtyła – Saint John Paul II. The relationship between the composer and the Pope was of a special nature. In 1977, Cardinal Karol Wojtyła commissioned a work from Henryk Mikołaj Górecki to commemorate the 900th anniversary of the death of St Stanislaus. The result was the oratorio Beatus Vir Op. 38, a psalm for baritone, mixed choir and orchestra. Since its premiere, the composer has been urged by the Pope to compose further works of religious music. This was to be a larger cycle dedicated to Polish saints. Only the oratorio on St Adalbert was written, the fate of which was unknown during the composer’s lifetime. Its manuscript was found in materials left behind by his son. The text of Sanctus Adalbertus is laconic, building up already at the level of words a specific drama typical of the composer. It is sung in Latin alternating with Polish (there is also a Czech variant, which is understandable given St Adalbert’s nationality), and, as so often in Górecki’s work, is based on thoughts taken from the Psalms. While the first three parts of the work can be said to be composed as a whole by ‘juxtaposing’ different sound models, different idioms repeated many times in an irregular manner peculiar to Górecki, the fourth part, with its clear three-part structure, is built in a processual manner. Górecki’s Gloria is derived, as it were, from the song Bogurodzica and tends towards it. In the maximally muted ending of the work, the melody returns, this time as if a reminder of it in the single, delicate strikes of the bells and grand piano leading to the utterance of the saint’s name: “Sanctus Adalbertus”. The work can be interpreted as a journey towards the quotation from the oldest Polish hymn – Bogurodzica (Mother of God), as a journey to the source – to the roots of a Polish national identity in times of rebirth.

Estratégias de estabilização: Peru
Authors: DORNBUSCH RUDIGER
Published: November 2023

RESUMO Escrito pouco antes de o novo presidente do Peru, Alberto Fujimori, assumir a posição, este artigo incorpora a necessidade de banir o populismo e adotar medidas emergenciais juntamente com medidas de longo prazo para obter uma estabilização efetiva da economia. Enfatiza o que poderia ser considerado consenso entre os economistas de países que sofreram inflação crônica: equilíbrio do déficit orçamentário, terapia de choque, necessidade da política de renda. Conclui-se que, apesar dos custos de um ajuste a ser feito, as classes menos privilegiadas sofrerão muito menos do que no contexto inflacionário contínuo.

A relação entre moeda e valor em Marx
Authors: MOLLO MARIA DE LOURDES ROLLEMBERG
Published: November 2023

RESUMO Este artigo é uma interpretação da teoria do valor de Marx. Chama-se atenção ao vínculo que Marx estabeleceu entre valor e dinheiro, nas economias capitalistas, tanto no sentido da gênese do dinheiro a partir de mercadorias e valor, quanto no sentido da imposição da lei do valor através da restrição monetária. Na primeira parte, o valor é definido como representação social do trabalho nas economias capitalistas. A segunda parte analisa a imposição da lei do valor às mercadorias através do dinheiro. Finalmente, a terceira parte analisa como a lei do valor se impõe sobre o dinheiro.
¿La prevención y el control de la toxoplasmosis son metas difíciles de lograr?
Authors: Pérez Cárdenas Jorge Enrique
Published: November 2023

Un estudio reciente realizado en donantes de sangre del Hemocentro del Café en la ciudad de Manizales, en el que se buscaba la presencia de ADN de Toxoplasma, así como también la presencia de anticuerpos frente a este parásito, mostró que la frecuencia de anticuerpos fue del 34%. Este valor se acerca al promedio nacional descrito en 1988 y además es similar a lo encontrado en otros estudios hechos en Manizales.

Este hallazgo indica que, a pesar de que esta cifra es inferior a las obtenidas en otros estudios, sigue siendo muy similar y además es alta indicando que una de cada tres personas está infectada con el parásito. También, se ha demostrado que la probabilidad de infección aumenta con la edad, pues las personas jóvenes presentan baja frecuencia de anticuerpos y a medida que la edad aumenta la frecuencia de anticuerpos también, llegándose a un pico del 50% en personas entre los 46 y 55 años de edad. Siendo este grupo de edad el que presenta mayor riesgo a la infección.

Convergences et bifurcations identitaires au prisme des conflits. Le cas de « El Guadual » à Santa Ana, Guamal
Authors: Lara Largo Sofía
Published: November 2023

Cet article est consacré à l’analyse d’un ensemble de pratiques, identitaires et territoriales, ayant cours dans la localité des Andes colombiennes de Guamal, dans le nord-ouest du département de Caldas. Elle se fonde sur un travail ethnographique et documentaire mené entre 2013 et 2019. La communauté de Guamal, dont les membres sont dans leur majorité descendants d’esclaves de l’époque coloniale, se trouve sous la juridiction du Cabildo de Cañamomo Lomaprieta, en un territoire reconnu officiellement comme resguardo indigène. L’objectif principal de cet écrit, fondé sur une dispute qui nait dans le cadre d’un conflit de famille, est de saisir la manière dont les contours des identités (collectives, ethniques, communautaires ou individuelles) et des territoires se dessinent mutuellement. Vingt-huit ans après la promulgation de la Constitution politique colombienne de 1991, les groupes se sont appropriés le multiculturalisme qu’elle instaure, modifiant une fois de plus les frontières territoriales et identitaires. La confrontation de différents types d’autorités a configuré localement un modèle de gestion territoriale particulier, caractérisé par d’éventuels chevauchements ou ambiguïtés juridiques et politiques. Certaines catégories récentes sont appropriées et resignifiées. Les identités revendiquées s’imbriquent, générant des configurations sociales, relationnelles et territoriales inédites.
Características mecánicas, granulometría y contenido de materia orgánica de los adobes usados en la Huaca Pucllana - Cultura Lima (200 – 700 d. C)
Authors: Rodríguez Silva Gustavo , Alvarez Calmet Micaela , Ccencho Huamaní José Enrique
Published: November 2023

La cultura Lima se desarrolló entre los años 200 y 700 DC entre los valles de Chanchay y Lurín en Perú. Tuvieron varios centros gubernamentales y ceremoniales, entre ellos el complejo arquitectónico conocido como la Huaca Pucllana, ubicado en Lima, el cual se edificó y habitó entre los años 450 y 700 DC. La construcción fue constante durante los años de actividad, generándose ampliaciones y modificaciones en las estructuras. Para esto se usó como unidad de construcción principal a los adobes, elaborados de forma artesanal en grandes cantidades. Es por ello, y a fin de estudiar la composición de las unidades de adobe se llevó un grupo de estos al Laboratorio de Mecánica de Suelos de la Universidad Nacional Agraria La Molina. Las unidades se sometieron a tres tipos de análisis: resistencia a la compresión no confinada, granulometría y contenido de materia orgánica. El propósito de estas pruebas radica en la necesidad de conocer y entender las proporciones de partículas de suelo usadas en la elaboración de adobes, así como las calidades de bloques obtenidas a lo largo del período de uso de la huaca. En la fase de experimentación se aplicaron ensayos de laboratorio normados pero adaptados a este tipo de adobes considerándolos como suelo. Los resultados encontrados muestran una variación de calidades según la antigüedad de cada bloque lo que podría ser un parámetro a tomar en cuenta al momento de estudiar los indicadores del esplendor y decadencia de los pobladores de la Huaca Pucllana. Por otro lado, los resultados podrán ayudar en lo referente a las actividades de conservación y protección del complejo frente a los agentes climáticos. Finalmente, es importante destacar que la investigación se elaboró por un equipo multidisciplinario compuesto por arqueólogos y un ingeniero agrícola. Gracias al intercambio de conocimientos, experiencias y diferentes puntos de vista se ofrece un panorama más amplio de la construcción en el antiguo Perú.
My Pedagogical Becoming as a Stellenbosch University Residential Educator During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Authors: Petersen Joy
Published: November 2023

This article explores my pedagogical becoming through the enactment of a residential education and support programme (RESP) at Stellenbosch University (SU). I co-created the RESP with nine women students who remained in a university residence with me during the Covid-19 pandemic. The RESP focused on the relationality and interrelationships that transpired at the nexus of the institution, the students, and me. I propose that this RESP acted as catalyst for the transmission and acquisition of valuable qualities and dispositions-what Barnett (2009) referred to as epistemic virtues-which are vital to knowledge acquisition in higher education. This article uses an autoethnography approach to capture my personal experiences against the sociocultural backdrop of residential learning and living at SU before, during, and after the pandemic. Narrative prose expressing my embodied emotional, spiritual, and intellectual self (Bochner & Ellis, 1992), and emotional recall were the primary data sources, which I analysed against van Manen's (1982, 1994) conceptualisation of the pedagogical relation and Tronto's (2015) principles of care ethics. Both those authors emphasised the centrality of the pedagogical relation for good and effective teaching. This article demonstrates how an institutional care-based response to the pandemic enacted at one residence (at a university with an erstwhile separatist educational agenda) can surpass its legacy momentarily to point the way towards the possibility of inclusive transformation at such an institution. Furthermore, this article demonstrates how nurturing pedagogical relationships based on care can effectively cultivate and transmit valuable qualities and dispositions (epistemic virtues), and why these are important in our current supercomplex (Barnett, 2007) and fast-changing world. I offer the claim that the acquisition of these epistemic virtues by students holds promise for providing them the key to unlocking an education for life.
Democracy and Inclusive Education Policy in Post-1994 South African Schools: Goal, Tension, and Struggle
Authors: Seeko Limakatso , Mathebula Thokozani
Published: November 2023

Globally, the idea of inclusive democracy is synonymous with the participation, deliberation, and representation of citizens in the management of the affairs of nation-states. In the light of this global picture, South Africa's constitutional democracy and its inclusive education policy ensure the right to education for school-going children (from foundation, to the intermediate and senior phases). Unfortunately, the zones of exclusion (i.e. difficulties to exercise the right to education) have shown that in post-apartheid South African schools, inclusive education gains have not been enjoyed by the intended recipients-the learners. This means that despite the formalisation of inclusive education policies by the state, substantive inclusion (i.e. active participation, deliberative engagement, and participatory representation) remains a distant dream for many school-going children in South Africa. Against this backdrop, the authors show that formal inclusive policy in schools in South Africa is split between social changes on one hand, and political democracy on the other. Consequently, the authors support the call for a continual struggle by (or for) educable learners who fall within the zones of exclusion in post-1994 South Africa. Ultimately, the authors argue that the realisation of substantive inclusive education depends on the protests of the excluded, who struggle in the interstices of zones of exclusion that have created and deepened the gulf between the ideal and the achievement because democratic inclusive education is at a crossroad; it is extended and dragged in opposite directions in post-1994 South Africa schools.

Published: November 2023

Despite the high degree of automation in industrial control systems, human operators in industrial plants play a critical role in ensuring uptime, production quality, and safety. Plant operators do so by not only monitoring the process but also intervening when the process runs into unusual or exception situations. In this paper, we present to ensure smooth plant operation by automatically identifying and investigating potential upcoming issues as well as providing recommendations to plant operators on how to address them with confidence. This is achieved by applying Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques including deep learning, process mining, and graph search, on historical industrial process data such as alarm and event data, audit trails, engineering documents, and safety procedures. Our solution has been validated on data from the Draugen oil field operated by the Norwegian oil and gas company, OKEA.
Automatisierte Dokumentationspflege bei Gerätetausch durch Verwaltungsschalen
Authors: Stolze Melanie , Diedrich Christian , Riedl Matthias
Published: November 2023

Die Errichtung, der Betrieb und die Anpassung von Produktionssystemen gehen mit einer ständigen Dokumentation wichtiger und nutzbringender  Informationen einher. Die Informationen, die in  verschiedenen Wertschöpfungsprozessen eines  Unternehmens zu den Systemen erstellt werden, liegen zum einen in verschiedenen Daten- und Dateiformaten vor. Zum anderen wird meist eine Information in mehreren oder denselben Unternehmensabteilungen, sowie  unternehmensübergreifend in unterschiedlichen Versionen redundant erfasst. Bei der Anpassung eines  Produktionssystems, z.B. durch einen Gerätetausch,  müssen die dazugehörigen verteilt vorliegenden  Informationen aktualisiert werden. Geschieht die  Speicherung der Informationen wie eben beschrieben, kostet dieser Abgleich zum einen Zeit und zum anderen birgt er ein Risiko, dass an einer Stelle weiterhin mit veralteten Daten gearbeitet wird. Eine Lösung, die  Dokumentation von Produktionssystemen konsistent zu  speichern und automatisiert zu aktualisieren, soll das Konzept der verbundenen Verwaltungsschale bieten. Dabei wird die Modellierung von unterschiedlichen  Beziehungstypen zwischen Assets anhand eines Use Case  beschrieben. Ergebnis ist ein Beziehungsmodell, das  Informationen eines Produktionssystems dynamisch  miteinander verknüpft und sich dem aktuellen Stand des  Produktionssystems anpasst und allgemein genutzt werden kann.
Anwendungen der Verwaltungsschale für Fertigungssysteme

Published: November 2023

Die Verwaltungsschale (VWS – Englisch: Asset Administration Shell – AAS) ist eine digitale Repräsentation von physischen oder nichtphysischen Assets. Mittels  Teilmodellen kann sie Daten für unterschiedliche  Anwendungsfälle bereitstellen und wird damit zu einer Basistechnologie für digitale Zwillinge der Industrie 4.0.  Viele dieser Teilmodelle befinden sich gerade in der  Entwicklung. Jedoch ist diese Vielfalt auch eine  Herausforderung: Derzeit ist es sowohl für Fabrikbetreiber, aber auch für Gerätehersteller und Anwendungsentwickler noch sehr aufwendig eine Verwaltungsschale nebst  Teilmodellen für Assets anzulegen. Die vorhandenen Werkzeuge sind sehr mächtig, erfordern aber sowohl ein  detailliertes Fachwissen bezüglich der VWS, als auch ein Domänenwissen, dass oft nicht gleichzeitig zur Verfügung steht. Hersteller von professionellen IT-Lösungen wissen  daher oft nicht, welche Teilmodelle für Kleine und Mittlere Unternehmen (KMU) relevant sind, um wichtige  Anwendungsfälle zu adressieren und können deshalb keine passenden Werkzeuge liefern. Wichtig ist es daher zu  verstehen, welche Teilmodelle relevante Anwendungsfälle adressieren, die Investitionen in die Digitalisierung  rechtfertigen. Wir haben daher zahlreiche VWS-Umsetzungsprojekte mit KMU untersucht und Teilmodelle, sowie zentrale Elemente dieser Teilmodelle extrahiert, die in diesen Projekten entstanden sind.
Correlation of Serum Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 and Hand Wrist Radiographs as Skeletal Maturity Indicators: an Ex-Vivo Study

Published: November 2023

Introduction: Conventional Hand and Wrist radiographs, have certain drawbacks of exposing orthodontic patients to unnecessary radiation hazards and subjectivity to errors. Serum insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels have been reported to increase until the pubertal peak in literature. The present study aims to assess the relationship between serum IGF-1 and skeletal maturity indicators Materials and Methods: Lateral cephalograms of 60 patients were assigned SMI stage according to Fishman’s classification system. The serum IGF-1 levels of the patients were also evaluated. Correlation between the serum IGF-1 levels, age of the patient, and their SMI stage was analyzed. Results: Pearson's coefficient of correlation revealed a non-significant weak positive correlation (p=0.69; >0.05) between age and IGF-1 levels, and a non-significant weak negative correlation (p =0.52; >0.05) between SMI stages and IGF-1 levels. Results of the ANOVA test indicated that there was no significant difference between mean IGF-1 levels across the different age groups and eleven SMI groups. However, there was a significant difference noted in the mean IGF-1 levels and the restructured SMI categories and groups. Conclusion: The moderate correlation between age and serum IGF-1 fluctuations during puberty underscores the hormone's pivotal role in adolescent growth. This positions serum IGF-1 as a potentially specific and reliable marker for assessing mandibular growth modifications, offering a radiation-free alternative to conventional radiographic methods

In addition, another objective is to assess the effectiveness of chemical pest management for P. hysterophorus and find the harmful effects or sustainability of P. hysterophorus pesticide use on the environment.The chemical constituents of the weed help to understand the cause and effect of the weed on humans. On the other hand, the chemical control method of P.hysterophorushas been studied along with the concept of carrying capacity. The research questions of the present study are whether the effect of P. hysterophorus on crop production is negative or positive. Additionally, what should be the chemical control methods and what are the effect and level of sustainability of the chemical control method of herbicides have been focused on in the research questions. The null hypothesis of the present research has shown that there is no relation between the level of weed and the amount of crop production. On the other hand, alternative hypotheses have stated that P. hysterophoruscan reduce the amount of crop in the field. This research utilized an experimental approach to investigate the impact of P. hysterophorus on crop yields. All of this study has been carried out by strictly adhering to a replacement experimental design. The study resulted in the negative impact of P. hysterophorus on crop production. It has also been found that glyphosate, 2,4-D, atrazine has played a positive role in the chemical control of the weed. Lastly, the negative impact of those herbicides by affecting non-target organisms, contamination of water resources and health effects has also been found.

Agriculture balances food requirements for mankind, and the supply of essential raw materials for many industries is the fundamental occupation in India. Smart farming allows analyzing the growth of crops and the parameters which influence crop growth and supports farmers in their activities, it is more profitable and reduces irrigation wastages. The proposed model is a smart farming system that analyzes the influence of parameters on crop growth and predicts the soil condition using a machine learning algorithm. Temperature, Ph, humidity, gas, and water level are the few most essential parameters to determine the quantity of water required and to find hazardous gas in any agriculture field. This system comprises temperature, pH, humidity, smoke detector, and water level sensor, deployed in an agricultural field, sends data through a microprocessor, developing an IoT device with cloud. In this study, we present a model that predicts soil series with regard to land type and, in accordance with the prediction, suggests appropriate crops. For soil land classification and crop prediction application is developed using KNN algorithms. Three steps are necessary for its implementation: the first is data collecting using sensors placed in an agricultural field, the second is data cleaning and storage, and the third is predictive processing utilizing the ML technique. The results obtained through the algorithms are sent to the cloud, which helps in decision-making in advance.

Elaeocarpus ganitrus, also known as Rudraksha, is a member of the Elaeocarpaceae family and has a long history of antidepressant and antibacterial benefits against various illnesses. Elaeocarpus ganitrus has been used in Unani and Ayurveda medicine as an antidepressant, an antibiotic, and as an external treatment for mental disease, epilepsy, liver discomfort, and stomach pain. In addition, it is used to treat a variety of other conditions, including hepatic diseases, dyspepsia, skin infections, blood purification, asthma, tumors, and wounds. Their biological effects include their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, anticancer, hepatoprotective, immunomodulatory, antifertility, antibacterial, and antidepressant properties. To further explore the trends and perspectives for future research, a thorough discussion of Elaeocarpus ganitrus' taxonomic classification, traditional uses, botanical description, phytochemical components, pharmacology, and safety aspects is required.

En la sociedad de la información y la conectividad, el uso de las tecnologías para la enseñanza y el aprendizaje se ha vuelto imprescindible. En ese sentido, el objetivo de esta investigación fue determinar la asociación entre competencia digital y competencia docente en el programa de Segunda Especialidad en Tecnología Computacional e Informática de la Universidad Nacional del Altiplano (Puno - Perú) en pleno contexto de la COVID-19. Además, se evaluaron los niveles de percepción de las variables mencionadas. El diseño de investigación fue el diagnóstico-correlacional transversal. La muestra estuvo integrada por 158 estudiantes del programa de Segunda Especialidad en Tecnología Computacional e Informática (SETCI), promoción 2022. Los datos se obtuvieron mediante la técnica de encuesta y como instrumento se emplearon dos cuestionarios establecidos en la escala de Likert: “Cuestionario para medir las competencias digitales docentes en entornos no presenciales emergentes desde la perspectiva de los estudiantes” y “Cuestionario de evaluación de la competencia docente”, ambos con altos niveles de fiabilidad. El procesamiento de datos se realizó mediante el análisis estadístico de correlación de rho de Spearman, con previo análisis de normalidad. Como resultado se obtuvo una asociación positiva considerable de 0.778 con p-valor menor a 0.001 entre competencia digital y competencia docente. Asimismo, se identificó altos niveles de competencia digital y docente (en 61% y 68%, respectivamente). Se concluyó que existe asociación positiva considerable y significativa entre competencia digital y competencia docente en los docentes del programa de SETCI en la institución referida.

Published: November 2023

Background: The opiate epidemic continues to cause hardship to American communities, including in all counties in Ohio, and resulted in 100 000 drug overdoses in 2021. Medications such as buprenorphine have helped people affected by opiate use disorder (OUD) to continue through recovery, although medication assisted therapy (MAT) has shown limited retention rates, calling for complimentary interventions to be implemented. Exercise has potential to reduce cardiovascular risk, lower obesity, and improve mental health. The aim of this study is to systematically review the literature on OUD and exercise as an adjunct to MAT. The authors hypothesize that there is a gap in the knowledge as to whether this modality has been thoroughly researched to aid in OUD recovery.Methods: A database literature search of PubMed, CINHAL, and PsychInfo returned a total of 458 abstracts. Four sets of exclusion criteria were implemented resulting in a total of 26 articles. After further review, 8 more articles were excluded by the authors.Results: Eighteen articles including participants with OUD were systematically reviewed. Only 1 article solely fo-cused on participants with OUD and exercise as an adjunct to treatment.Conclusion: Exercise as an adjunct to treatment for OUD is an area of addiction treatment that warrants further investigation. Incorporating exercise into a recovery program for people with substance use disorders (SUD) specifically has been touted as a promising modality, however, limitations in OUD only studies and lack of control groups make it difficult to draw a conclusion to support our hypothesis.

Patients presented with soft tissue lesions without any β symptoms can be a case of Primary extranodal Non- non-Hodgkins lymphoma. According to the World Health Organization classification system, there are two types of Lymphoma with various sub-types of Hodgkins Lymphoma and Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma are classified to assess the disease burden Progression and metastasis Imaging modalities are helpful. Commonest site involvement in Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in the gastrointestinal tract (44%) followed by Head and Neck and may Involve bone (8%) and Central Nervous System 5%. Diffuse large β-Cell Lymphoma is the most common subtype representing 30%-35% of all Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma Cases. Oral and Para oral sites were involved in 2.5% of the cases. A 27-year-old Male noticed a swelling in the flank which was progressively Increasing in size one year back later it was associated with pain which reduced mobility and pain was increased during walking. Due to the advancement of diagnostic techniques, it is easy to get the radiological picture and correlation with clinical presentation and pathological reports, but these facilities are not available at various centers. Usually, patients are present in very advanced stages because of a lack of awareness about the disease, and how to proceed for diagnosis and treatment resulting in poor outcomes for these patients. This presentation and clinical funding are rare in the case of Lymphoma. This case report allows us to think of another diagnosis rather than usual.
