The Impact of COVID-19 on Urological Cancer: An internet Search Volume Analysis
Authors: Nyanhongo Donald Kudakwashe
Published: August 2021

Objectives: Health services have been disrupted due to Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). With patients, unable to access face to face healthcare, many turn to sources such as the Internet for health-related information. Other patients ignore all other health related issues and focus on the threat posed by a pandemic. This study sought to analyse the Internet health-seeking behaviour related to urological cancer of patients in the United Kingdom (UK) during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Methods: Internet search volumes over a 3-month period, during the UK pandemic, were analysed using Google TrendsTM to obtain a search volume index (SVI) and compared to an equivalent pre COVID-19 period. The SVI measures relative search volume and was obtained for “Prostate Cancer”, “Kidney Cancer”, “Bladder Cancer” and Testicular Cancer” searches. Results: The average SVI for Prostate Cancer before the COVID-19 pandemic was 49.3, compared to 42.6 during the pandemic (p=0.001). Kidney cancer had an average SVI of 45.5 before the pandemic compared to 35.4 during the pandemic (p <0.001). Similar results were obtained for Bladder and Testicular Cancer. There was a 23% decrease in SVI for urological cancer searches during the pandemic compared to before the pandemic (p <0.001). Conclusions: The decline in searches for urological cancer during the pandemic may have implications. Patients maybe ignoring new cancer related symptoms which could result in late diagnoses, public health campaigns are required. Patients with cancer may not be utilising online resources available to them and healthcare professionals should reach out to patients at a time when face-face interaction is limited.
The International Digital Transformation of Healthcare: Telehealth Development in the Global Community
Authors: Alverson Dale
Published: August 2021

Using advances in information and communication technologies (ICT), telemedicine and eHealth are providing a means to transform systems of care for people throughout the world by providing greater access to clinical service, consultation, sharing knowledge, education and training, public and community health, health systems development, epidemiology and research. Leap-frogging over prior barriers, rapid advances in information communication technologies (ICT), computing, and wireless networks are offering greater continuity in access to these services in both developed and developing countries. The use of telehealth must be put in the context of the critical health needs in each country, cultural perspectives, current and future communication infrastructure, other supportive resources, and likelihood for sustainability. Furthermore, these telehealth efforts should be aimed at improving the local capacity in providing ongoing health services in each country and blend into that country’s current and future health care strategies. As the world continues to “shrink”, developing this international telehealth “network of networks” offers an opportunity for cooperation, collaboration, knowledge sharing and improving the health of every individual in the world, applying information technologies for peace and the betterment of mankind. The time is now for open and constructive dialogue designed to facilitate that coordination between key stakeholders and other international organisations. These types of international exchange experiences enhanced with telehealth offer significant opportunities for understanding the common denominators, as well as unique differences, related to global health among countries and cultures around the world. These programs can promote international understanding and mutual respect in a manner that can improve the health of the entire global community.
Citizens Participating in their Healthcare – Challenges for Nurses
Authors: Kouri Pirkko
Published: August 2021

In Finland, health and welfare is taken care under the common health and social services system that consists of independent private, public and third sector actors. Through taxation, municipalities finance most of the healthcare and the government provides additional support. Functionality and effectiveness of the overall system is vitally important to guarantee today’s good healthcare services. For instance, in social services and healthcare, digital health supports the quality of life, care, dignity and sovereignty. The necessary technology is equally, fairly and easily accessible due to the widespread technological infrastructure. For example, in healthcare, use of technology is agreed with the citizen when preparing the healthcare service plan. The documentation of patient data is carried out virtually at all levels of care. Technology offers options that can paradoxically mean both freedom and slavery depending on how and where technology is used, and who has the right to use it. Furthermore, the digital divide has narrowed, but it still exists. Due to the ageing of people, there is a growing need for healthcare staff who are digitally knowledgeable in order to support citizens and their families in health issues. When studying different digital health related strategies from 1995 to 2020, the vital role of healthcare staff is recognised and their technological competence and skills need to be updated along with the development of technology. During the last decade, in the latest strategies, the role of the citizen as a key part of the healthcare service chain has grown significantly.  Simultaneously, the development of a digital society offers possibilities to participate and the advanced digital expertise of citizens promotes their participation in healthcare. In principle, everyone has possibilities to access health data and gather health related data via Internet databases. This article discusses the elements of citizen or patient and nurse interactions, and how and whether this challenges nurses.

Authors: Padmalatha Konara Mudiyanselage Sriyani , Silva Nishan , Edirisinghe Kithsiri
Published: August 2021

Incorporating the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) into everyday professional practice requires nurses to overcome resistance to change and to become willing users and creative operators of IT. Managing the change process effectively while implementing eHealth (e.g., Hospital Information Systems) within the operating theatre environment can facilitate the efficient delivery of quality patient care.  Aim: To describe the uses of and attitudes toward current IT by operating theatre nurses at The National Hospital of Sri Lanka (NHSL). Methods: The research used a descriptive design and survey method.  The study population was theatre nurses working in 16 theatres. A convenience sample of 112 nurses selected from the 16 theatres was used. Nurses with a service period over 20 years were excluded. Data were gathered with a self-administered questionnaire. Results: The response rate was 97 of 112 (87%). The study found that nurses were highly confident in using computers, touch screens, the Internet and email. Almost 80% of theatre nurses used computer technology for their work and personal matters. However only 60% of the nurses had personal email addresses. Furthermore, 79% of nurses believed that computers would reduce paper work. Conclusion: Most operating theatre nurses possess a positive attitude toward advances that use IT applications.  This may be due to the growing presence and accessibility of IT in their work environment, which has added value in their day to day practice in the hospital. To facilitate ongoing growth in use of IT in Sri Lanka, continuing education opportunities for operating theatre and other nurses should be pursued.
Tele-sleep Medicine: An Opportunity in a Crisis
Authors: Ramakrishnan Nagarajan , Thelac Pon , Mana Nileena
Published: August 2021

The countrywide lockdown in India has necessitated healthcare providers consider alternate options for providing care during the COVID-19 pandemic. While there has been a tremendous focus in coping with emergency and inpatient care for COVID-19 related illness, there is also an increasing need to address management of non-communicable disease. The pandemic and the associated lockdown have witnessed the onset or worsening of sleep disorders often related to changing lifestyle, including inactivity, fear of the disease, and generalised anxiety caused by the uncertainty of the future. We propose the term ‘Lockdown Sleep Syndrome’ to describe this grouping of signs and symptoms. The wide coverage and extensive use of smartphones and more importantly, the appropriately timed Telemedicine Practice Guidelines from the Government of India, have made telehealth an attractive option, particularly in specialities such as Sleep Medicine which involves minimal physical examination. The experience of restricting personal visits to the clinic and promoting teleconsultation during the initial fifty days of lockdown is described. It was observed that two thirds of consultations shifted to a telehealth platform, and this was effective in giving satisfactory care and valid prescriptions, including to those outside the city of Chennai. Telemedicine not only helped provide uncompromised care to existing patients but also helped in identifying and managing the onset of new sleep problems with a pattern of signs and symptoms which are described as “Lockdown Sleep Syndrome”.

Introduction:
No studies on paternal postnatal depression (PPND) have been performed in Poland.

Aim:
The aim of the study was to estimate the symptoms of depression in women and men and identify the determinants of mental health of fathers after the birth of their child.

Material and methods:
Parents (142) participated in the study during the period 1 to 12 months after the birth.

Results and discussion:
The analyses reveal that 13% of fathers and 18% of mothers after the birth of their child had Edinburgh postnatal depression scale (EPDS) scores of 10 or higher, which indicates possible depression. At score 12 and more, the proportion detected by EPDS decreased to 7% of fathers and 13% of mothers, which is an indicator of major depressive disorder. At EPDS score 12 and more, a probable depressive disorder was indicated in 10% of fathers in the period of 1–3 months, 7% of fathers at 4–7 months and 4% of fathers at 8–12 months. The symptoms of maternal depression at a score of 12 and more were detected in 16% of women at 1–3 months, 12% at 4–7 months 11% at 8–12 months. PPND was significantly associated with depression in mothers OR 5.7, lower education OR 4.3, low financial income OR 6.0, decreased relationship satisfaction OR 3.3, and previous history of depression OR 3.2.

Conclusions:
Psychosocial factors were strong predictors of PPND up to a year after the birth of the child. The authors suggest the routine screening and assessment of both parents should occur during the woman’s pregnancy and in the postnatal period.

Micropropagation of orchids are often through the production of Protocorm Like Bodies (PLBs) and this research conducted a study to discover the optimal condition for the growth of Protocorm Like Bodies (PLBs) and also plantlets regeneration of Grammatophyllum speciosum Several aspects such as different carbon sources (sucrose, maltose) and the presence of charcoal alongside with the variety of concentration of agar were taken into account for the optimization. This study discovered that the 30 g/L of sucrose in 1 mg/L of BAP was superior in producing heavy PLBs. However, the trend differs in the number of plantlets where maltose (5 g/L) is seen to produce a higher number of plantlets compared to sucrose. Charcoal plays an important role in the growth of PLBs where the heaviest PLBs were recorded in the medium supplemented with 0.20 % of charcoal along with 4.5 g of agar. Vice versa relationship was recorded for the number of plantlets where without  charcoal in 4.5 g of agar produce the highest number of plantlets.

The formation of engineer units in the Royal Yugoslav Army during the 1920s and 1930s developed in two phases. The first was its engagement within the army divisions and in the second phase was the establishment of a unique engineering command, including pioneer, pontoon, and military traffic commands. Considering their different specialized activities, planned complex training demanded certain financial resources as well as an adequately qualified command staff. The lack of engineering officers and non-commissioned officers was one of the reasons why the recruits did not have regular lectures. Also, whole units were often sent out of their garrisons, especially for the purpose of strengthening the country’s borders, which posed a serious problem, which was not solved during the entire interwar period. Another problem was a small number of recruits, which is why they had to be taken over from other military units, plus the fact that they were mostly technically inexperienced and frequently even illiterate. In addition, modern equipment was scarce, all of which made good quality training impossible.

Dengue Fever is still a serious health problem and a major problem in the health sector in various parts of the world and also in Indonesia. This disease is an infectious disease and can infect all ages because there are still many people who still lack awareness in maintaining cleanliness to anticipate transmission. Data from the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia (Kemenkes RI) Indonesia recorded the number of people infected with Dengue Fever disease as many as 95,893 throughout 2020 and as many as 661 people died from this disease. The method used is using the certainty factor method where if it is interpreted this method will be used to help make a decision to diagnose the category of Dengue Fever level with a level of confidence in the form of a percentage of how much someone is infected with Dengue Fever in the existing category. The results obtained in the calculation of certainty factor get a result in the category of grade 1 of 98%, grade 2 of 98%, grade 3 of 99%, grade 4 of 99%.

Retóricas del silencio: inscripciones textuales y sombras de la deconstrucción en la crítica española
Authors: Hidalgo Nácher Max
Published: July 2021

Este artículo se pregunta por el momento de emergencia de los llamados estructuralismos en España, y especialmente por el lugar y algunos usos de la deconstrucción en el campo crítico español a partir de los años setenta y hasta nuestros días. Una larga autarquía intelectual y la presencia del nacional-catolicismo dificultarán la incorporación de un pensamiento que parte de la muerte de Dios y avanza hacia la muerte del Hombre. En estas páginas se estudia parcialmente la obra de Nora Catelli y de Túa Blesa para ver de qué modo abrieron nuevos horizontes críticos en una España que no habrá dejado de oponer resistencias a la teoría y, más en general, al pensamiento literario. E, igualmente, se llama la atención sobre algunas dinámicas heredadas de la universidad española que llegan hasta hoy y que reclaman la vuelta sobre las propias condiciones materiales del ejercicio de la actividad intelectual en una universidad pública regida por la precariedad.

The most common sustainable polymer for polyurethane (PU) materials is the production of polyurethane (PU) materials using renewable resources, which will reduce thedependency on petroleum-based products for consumption.This research presents findings from an experimental research on dynamic mechanical and viscoelastic properties such as storage module (E'), loss module(E") and damping coefficient(tan δ)of synthetic epoxy (E) and bio-epoxy (B) polymer foam with different loading ratios of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% flakes and powder filler.The samples were then exposed to 8000 hours of UV irradiation. The samples were subjected to dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) over a temperature range of 25-180 ° C for (E) and (B) polymer foam at a frequency of 1 Hz.The results showed that the 20 %synthetic epoxy with flakes filler material, namely as E20L sample with the highest filler ratio, gives the maximum storage module and loss module values (0.3125 MPa and0.0625 MPa respectively), among other filler ratios due to bonding between foam and filler resulting in increased viscosity of the synthetic-epoxy PU foam. The bio-epoxy PU foam with a 5% powder filler material (B5P), has the highest storage value (3,956 MPa) and loss module (17,213 MPa), showing that bio-epoxy PU foams can dissipate energy faster than synthetic-epoxy polymer foams.Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed that the synthetic epoxy (E) polymer foam had a higher Tg value and the highest value was reported by E5L (1.2) compared to bio-epoxy foams with far less repeatable results due to the less homogeneous polyol structure.

Wood powder filler applied to the bio-based and epoxy polymer foams has the potential to reinforce the polymer foam structure. The 'Meranti' wood filler type was used as the filler in this analysis. In order to observe the pore size of each sample when exposed to different hours of UV exposure using optical microscopy (OM), this study was made.This analysis was conducted to compare the mechanical properties of each sample with different filler ratios of 0 wt%, 5 wt%, 10 wt%, 15wt% and 20 wt% at different UV exposure hours, which is 0 hour to 6000 hours with a 2000 hour rapid increase. Using the DMA Q800 TA unit, the mechanical properties were studied. In order to obtain the product of their mechanical properties, samples having a scale of 40 x 10 x 5 mm were clamped into the machine. The results will show the value of tan δ, loss modulus and storage modulus from the DMA test.The tan δ value shows that the high tanδvalue will be produced by the higher ratio filler. In contrast to bio-based polymer foams, epoxy polymer foams with powder fillers have the highest tan δ value. It shows that the higher filler ratio can be reported with the lower tan δ value. As the filler ratio filler in the polymer foams increased, the consequence of storage and loss modulus was found to increase. The greater the modulus of loss and the modulus of storage, the lower the temperature. As energy is lost as heat during UV irradiation exposure, bio-based polymer foams with a high powder filler ratio can dissipate more energy.
Notas sobre la comprensión
Authors: Barboza Enrique
Published: July 2021

La comprensión como forma especial de conocimiento, ha surgido en el campo de la ciencia espiritual. Sus primeros enunciados se deben al filósofo alemán Dilthey, y ha sido ampliamente desarrollada en los últimos tiempos, sobre todo en el dominio de la psicología, con Spranger.

Para Dilthey, la comprensión es uno de los elementos de la hermenéutica, es decir, de la interpretación. Nosotros mientras vivimos, estamos siempre interpretando nuestras vivencias personales y ajenas, lo mismo que las vivencias históricas.

El lenguaje, instrumento preciado y fundamental en la vida de interrelación humana, ofrece al análisis del investigador una gama interesante de sugestivos aspectos. Arrancando de la afirmación inicial de que es el vehículo natural de expresión de todos los fenómenos de nuestro mundo consciente, podemos encontrar en él facetas tan importantes como las que se ocultan en el fondo de la compleja personalidad humana.

Programa razonado del curso de historia de la filosofía moderna
Authors: Peralta Antero
Published: July 2021

Para iniciar metódicamente el estudio del pensamiento filosófico moderno es necesario, ante todo, presentar el cuadro histórico en que dicho pensamiento se desarrolla. Primero el escenario, luego la escena. Porque las grandes corrientes del pensamiento no se producen—como quisieran los filósofos idealistas—independientemente de los acontecimientos históricos, sino que,como fenómenos de orden superior—por lo mismo que fenómenos—están en relaciones de interdependencia, espacial y temporal, con los otros fenómenos que se adjetivan infraestructurales. Se trata de fenómenos resultantes de los hechos económicos, sociales y políticos. De fenómenos enraizados en la actividad humana perfectamente ponderables por la historia.
La tierra en la literatura latina
Authors: Tamayo Vargas Augusto

Virgilio murió en Brindisi, sobre el Adriático el 22 de setiembre del año 19 antes de nuestra Era. En su epitafio se pusieron estas líneas, atribuidas al propio poeta mantuano: "Canté los prados, las tierras de labor y los reyes". Y ya en el exordio del Libro I de "La Eneida" había subrayado parecidas palabras: "Yo aquel que en otra tiempo modulé cantares al son de leve avena y dejando luego las selvas obligué a los vecinos campos a que obedeciesen al labrador".
Calendario cultural de Italia en 1946
Authors: León Bueno José
Published: July 2021

La producción intelectual de Italia, durante el año 1946, ha estado desgraciadamente influida por el hecho, exclusivamente político, del establecimiento de la República. La mayoría de los escritores italianos eran y son republicanos, —en una proporción mayor que el 53 por ciento de electores que votó por laRepública,— pero la acritud de la polémica, —en la que se invirtieron 3 mil millones de liras,— frustró o afeó su obra netamente intelectual.
La antigua y nueva lógica
Authors: Carnap Rudolf , Salazar Bondy Augusto
Published: July 2021

La traducción de "La nueva y la antigua Lógica" de Rudolf Carnap, realizada por Augusto Salazar Bondy, constituye un hecho significativo entro del proceso del pensamiento filosófico peruano. Desde hace yaalgunos años se nota en nuestro ambiente filosófico una tendencia definida hacia la Filosofía entendida en su aspecto más profundo y más técnico. La Filosofía, que era considerada en el Perú como una disciplina secundaria, casi como un adorno de cultura, es ahora vista como una disciplina primordial, cuyo estudio implica un esfuerzo sistemático y cuyo sentido no se reduce a la mera función complementaria del conocimiento de otras disciplinas, sino, por el contrario, a la persecución de un conocimiento tan importante que permite tomar a las demás disciplinas como complementos para su propio perfeccionamiento  (Traducido por Augusto Salazar Bondy, de la versión francesa del General Ernest Vouillemin. revisada y puesta al día por el autor, (París, Hermann y Cía., 1933).
Los "Anales del Cuzco" y su presunto autor Don Diego de Esquivel y Navia
Authors: Villanueva Urteaga Horacio
Published: July 2021

Durante el siglo XVIII se escribió en el Cusco una notable crónica histórica conocida entre nosotros con el nombre de ANALES DEL CUZ CO, cuyo manuscrito, copiado más de una vez, ha sido atribuido a la pluma del ilustrado canónigo de la Catedral cuzqueña doctor don Diego de Esquivel y Navia, que viviera hasta 1779. Que éste sea el nombre del autor de los antiguos Anales, no ha podido comprobarse. Lo cierto es que la obra reúne excepcional interés, de allí que nos hayamos propuesto estudiar los problemas referentes al autor y la curiosa historia de su viejo manuscrito. Tal el objeto del presente artículo. No tenemos, por supuesto, la presuncion de haber agotado el tema. Al contrario, declaramos desde ahora que no ha side posible dar termino a nuestra averiguacion, pues, lo investigado se atasca en un punto insuperable. No obstante, sin mas vacilaciones, queremos ofrecerla ahora a la curiosidad de los lectores de esta importante Revista, seguros como estamos del interes de tan valioso asunto.
"Moral" y "Vida" en Federico Nietzsche

El hombre distinguido, el grande hombre, el superhombre, objetivos de la tarea que seguido en el filósofo poeta habrá de ocuparnos serán el progreso del que no ere en el progreso. Ellos justificarán y crearán el "gressus". Habrá habido camino y se habrá caminado hacia algo porque ellos serán —se harán— meta. No es pues una simple reinstauración de la moral señorial lo que nos ofrecerá Federico Nietzsche Oehler sino una: ¡Trasmutación de to dos los Valores! 1 (con verticales y vigorosos signos admirativos opuesta a esa otra que los tuvo curvilíneos y sinuosos, la de la moral de escla vos y sacerdotes) trasmutación de esa primera trasmutación, pues, pero cuyos hijos no habrán de ser los bárbaros antepasados.
