How to get rid of a mother who beats you up? The children’s witch trial in Gniezno in 1689

In studies conducted so far into witch trials in the Polish-Lithuanian state in the sixteenth–
seventeenth centuries the question of children has been virtually absent. It seems that the number of trials featuring children as active participants was small in early modern Poland. Nevertheless, such trials did take place. This is confirmed by a trial held in Gniezno in 1689. Ten-year-old Dorotka, daughter of Zofia the Publican, accused her mother of being
a witch and of harming several people with the help of the devil. The girl’s testimony shows
unequivocally that she was physically abused by her mother. This may have been the reason behind the accusation. The article examines the trial on the basis of sources preserved in the records of the city of Gniezno.
Economic violence or the law of war? Swedish contributions from the period of the Great Northern War as an example of extraordinary provisions imposed on the residents of the cities within the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth
Authors: Wagner Katarzyna
Published: December 2022

The literature on the subject mentions three kinds of levies imposed in the early modern era. The first was a regular tax for the benefit of the army, irrespective of whether it was an
occupying, neutral or friendly force; its amount depended on the property of the individual
in question. The second type, called Brandschatzung in German, was usually a one-off payment aimed at securing the area seized by the occupier against looting or destruction. The third type, the so-called Kontribution, was imposed by the occupier depending on the needs of the army. Its payment deadline was short, so it was often paid in instalments and its collection was entrusted to an official designated by the municipal authorities. This last form was the most popular levy imposed by the Swedish troops on the regions they occupied, also on the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth during the so-called Deluge and the Great Northern War.
The aim of the article is to provide answers to questions about the practice and legitimacy
of the imposition of the Kontribution on cities in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth by Swedish troops, and to determine its place in the general system of levies. The last question concerns research possibilities offered to us by Kontribution registers.
The article is divided into three parts: the first is devoted to the classification of levies making it possible to determine what type of levies were imposed on the people of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth during the two occupations. The second part focuses on the system of organising and collecting levies in the cities of the Polish Crown as well as criticism of this unique kind of source. Part three contains examples of the use of Kontribution registers — using registers from Warsaw and Lviv from 1702 as examples — to carry out research into residents of early modern cities.

Organising help for the Jews on the Aryan side in Warsaw

In my article I discuss the question of clandestine help for the Jews within an organised network on the Aryan side in Warsaw. One of the matters I analyse concerns the number of Jews whom Żegota may have helped and was able to help. I present examples of the functioning of Żegota’s organisational network, focusing on the tasks of liaisons providing concrete help to the Jews every day. I analyse numbers of the Jews helped by the organisation given in various sources, commenting on them with regard to the efficiency and financial capabilities of this clandestine organisation.
Exploring peripheries through similarities and differences . Comparisons between Poland-Lithuania, Muscovy and Turkey in English chorographic publications of the late 16th and the 17th century

Exploring peripheries through similarities and differences. Comparisons between Poland-Lithuania, Muscovy and Turkey in English chorographic publications of the late 16th and the 17th century

The paper deals with the way English geographical and historical texts may have influenced the perception of three eastern states with which England maintained relations in the late 16th and early 17th centuries: Poland-Lithuania, Muscovy and Turkey. All three — irrespective of their geographical distance and peripheral locations — became important for England in the late 16th century because of their economic and political potential. This resulted in a surge of interest in Poland, Turkey and Russia, and provided a significantly broader context in which they were presented in the emerging English public sphere. The focus of the article is on answering the questions whether the fundamental political and confessional differences between the three states had a significant impact on the way they were presented by English authors of chorographic publications, how peripheral they were considered to be — in comparison to other political entities on the continent — and whether there the differences and the similarities discussed in these texts were the good indication of their specificity.
Wacław Jaruzelski — bohater czy zdrajca? Nieoczywista biografia wojskowego i polityka
Authors: Kalinowski Emil
Published: December 2022

Wacław Jaruzelski — a hero or a traitor? An unobvious biography of a military man and politician

The article is devoted to a rather forgotten figure of an ancestor of General Wojciech Jaruzelski, Wacław (1658–1706). The military and political career of the latter unfolded during the reign of John III Sobieski and the first decade of the reign of Augustus II. Born in a family that belonged to petty nobility in the Drohiczyn region in Podlasie, he threw in his lot with a local magnate, Stefan Mikołaj Branicki, owner of vast estates around Tykocin and Białystok. Jaruzelski owed the prominent position achieved in the army and among his fellow noblemen to both his patron’s protection, and his own skills and accomplishments. Thanks to them he was able to move from a purely titulary dignity of stolnik (pantler) of Novgorod to the prestigious office of chorąży (standard-bearer) of the Bielsk region, which gave him fairly broad prerogatives. His activity in the public sphere went beyond the local horizon; he often served as expert parliamentarian and judge. An examination of Wacław Jaruzelski’s colourful biography makes it possible to take a closer look at characteristic phenomena of his day. As we accompany him in the successive stages of his career, we can observe the destructive impact of factional divisions within one local assembly (the dispute between Stefan Mikołaj Branicki and Jan Gniński, Voivode of Bratslav) and then the entire country (the Sapieha case). Jaruzelski’s dramatic protest against the election of Stanisław Leszczyński, imposed by a foreign power, followed by the difficult decision to side with Augustus II, unpopular with his subjects, encapsulate, as it were, the experiences of the Polish and Lithuanian nobility of
those turbulent times.
Zur Entstehung des Begriffs „polnische Wirtschaft”
Authors: Kordel Jacek
Published: December 2022

Origins of the concept of „polnische Wirtschaft”

The article examines the circumstances of the emergence of the “polnische Wirtschaft”
stereotype, a symbol of particularly evident disorder, and its frequent appearance in the
literary German language in the late 18th and early 19th century. The author analyses two issues: the circumstances in which Georg Forster, a traveller and naturalist who in 1784–1787 was active as professor of natural history at the University of Vilnius, emerged as the author of the term “polnische Wirtschaft” (I) (or its advocate and promoter) as well as the contexts in which the term appeared in writings published in print in the late 18th and early 19th century (a period ending with the publication of Forster’s correspondence in 1829, II). The author draws the following conclusions from his analysis: Georg Forster, who used the term “polnische Wirtschaft” four times in his letters sent from Vilnius, was not the author who introduced it into literary German for the first time. Nor is it possible to defend the thesis that Forster contributed significantly to the spread of the term, as it had been common in Silesia already in the early 18th century. It must have been at that time or slightly later that it spread to other areas of the Polish-German borderland. From the mid-1770s the formula was used by the Prussian administration including King Frederick William. It was used at the Berlin court to describe the disorder and bad organisation in the provinces incorporated into the Hohenzollerns’ monarchy as a result of the successive partitions of Poland. The term “polnische Wirtschaft” was referred to by Prussian officials not only in official documents but also in publications devoted to other matters, for example the economy. In the first or second quarter of the 19th century at the latest the term lost its original meaning associated with the location from which came its name, becoming an illustration of disorder and lack of discipline, not necessarily associated with the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and its inhabitants.
Uroczystości pogrzebowe Jana Karola Chodkiewicza w Ostrogu w roku 1622 na tle sporu o jego schedę
Authors: Żojdź Karol
Published: December 2022

The funeral of Jan Karol Chodkiewicz in Ostroh in 1622 and the dispute over the inheritance left by him

Historically, disputes over estates of deceased family members often took up the time
and resources of their heirs in Poland. This was also the case of the relatives of Jan Karol Chodkiewicz, Voivode of Vilnius and Grand Hetman of Lithuania. According to the bequests made before his death, his hereditary property was to have passed as a lifehold to his second wife, Anna Alojza née Ostrogska. This meant that for some time or perhaps permanently the inheritance from her late father would be denied to Chodkiewicz’s daughter from his first marriage, Anna Scholastyka Sapieha, whose interests were represented by her husband, Jan Stanisław Sapieha, Grand Marshal of Lithuania.
The conflict between the widow and the stepdaughter, and between the families supporting them had a fairly standard basis, but what distinguished it was its scale. It required considerable funds, mobilisation of clients and wining over of influential allies. It unfolded on several planes simultaneously: in local assemblies, before Tribunals and at the king’s court, and required armed forces to make forays into disputed estates or to defend them.
An important moment in the fight for the inheritance left by Chodkiewicz — won by the Sapiehas in the end — was the funeral of the Voivode of Vilnius. The present publication contains a source edition of an account of this occasion. In the commentary preceding it the author seeks to place the funeral in the context of the conflict over property and to point to the consequences of the events. He also asks a question about the uniqueness of the funeral and assesses its lavishness.
John of Wildeshausen OP († 1252) — a bishop on the Hungarian periphery in the thirties of the 13th century in the light of contemporary Dominican and Church legislation
Authors: Hunčaga Gabriel
Published: December 2022

John of Wildeshausen, also known as Johannes Teutonicus and Johannes von Wildeshausen was, after his Dominican confrere Theodoric (bishop of Cumania), the second mendicant friar who was ordained bishop in Hungary and served here in this office. The brief time during which he held the episcopal office in Bosnia (1234 — 1237) falls within a period of historical turning points. The Hungarian crown tried to increase its political influence in Bosnia and the papal court sought to suppress the local heresy. At the same time, during the pontificate of Gregory IX, new norms to strengthen the church authority in enforcing the canonical way of filling the bishoprics were applied, where the Pope as episcopus orbis exercised his full apostolic authority. In addition, the episcopal work of John of Wildeshausen fits into a period when this relatively young mendicant religious institution — Ordo praedicatorum — at its fourteenth General Chapter in Bologna in 1233 resisted the idea that bishops-Dominicans should become a usual practice. This was not an easy task, considering the intricate knot of canonical norms concerning religious bishops and the personal demands of the papal court on Franciscans and Dominicans. It was John of Wildeshausen who, after his resignation from the post of bishop, already in his office of the Master of the Order, influenced the contemporary Dominican legislation in this regard.
Jednostki odległości i szybkość podróżowania w drugiej połowie XVI stulecia w świetle traktatu Blaisea de Vigenère
Authors: Łopatecki Karol

Units of distance and speed of travel in the second half of the sixteenth century in the light of Blaise de Vigenère’s treatise

The article is an analysis of transport routes published in La description du Royaume de
Poloigne by Blaise de Vigenère (1573). The book was a manual, as it were, intended for Henri de Valois and his court heading for the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. In addition to its chorographic aspect, it also contained an analysis of the Commonwealth’s political system, law and society. The descriptions of the main routes were very good, with the author presenting the roads leading from Paris and Vienna to Kraków, and then to Gdańsk and Vilnius, Polotsk, Orsha and as far as Moscow. On their basis I have been able to establish the difference in units of distance between the various countries (one lieues in France corresponded to 4.75 km, 5.1 km in the Moscow Empire, 7.5 km in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and 8.8 km in the German Empire). Blaise de Vigenère suggested to his reader the borders of states and provinces, which was to be an indication of a possibility of applying various measures of distance. Calculations demonstrates that miles in the Crown were slightly shorter than those in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (7.3 to 7.69 km); the uniqueness of Polotsk is also evident — as a result of very complicated routes miles in the region were extremely short (about 5 km). The averaged mile length in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was 7.5 km.
Blaise de Vigenère indicates that the speed of travel from Kraków to Paris should be 42.5 km/day. It was quicker to travel along the main route from Vilnius to Kraków (55 km/day). Barely half of this speed was achieved by carts laden with goods and by people travelling on foot (25 km/day). A skilful rider, changing horses along the way, without any cart or unnecessary load could achieve a much higher speed. Founded by Sigismund II Augustus in 1558, the postal service linking Kraków with Venice was to have reached the speed of 92.9 km/day. In reality it was able to cover only about 62 km/day. Journeys in large groups of carts, with extended transport columns, were much slower. The average speed achieved by the travelling court of Stephen Báthory was 30–35 km/day. Polish-Lithuanian armies (but not individual units) travelled even more slowly, at 7–27.5 km/day.
Interpreting the History of Pogroms in Poland: Are “Causes” Actually “Contexts” and — If So — For What?
Authors: Hagen William W.
Published: December 2022

The article focuses on the causes of pogrom violence in the historically Polish lands.
The author examines explanations offered in authoritative Polish-language historiography,
finding that those factors understood to have “caused” pogroms — antisemitic ideology,
social conflict, religious prejudice, ideological fears — figure as contexts in which pogrom
perpetrators enact their violence. The author argues that these contexts justify in perpetrators’ minds violence that springs from the unconscious or unreflected-on conviction that, when Jewish behaviour violates the prevailing demotic “moral economy,” it is justifiable for ordinary people to “punish” Jews, irrespective of what civil or religious precepts say. This belief springs from mythical concepts of Jews as possessed of supernatural, sometimes harmful powers. The article draws on the author’s publications to illustrate how anti-Jewish violence commonly assumed symbolic form, enacting dramas illustrating socialpsychological scenarios of which pogromists were generally unaware, but which historians can read from the violence itself.
Epidemie Nowego Świata
Authors: Więckowski Wiesław
Published: December 2022

New World Epidemics

The discovery of the Americas, followed soon by the conquest and fall of the well-organised empires of the Aztecs and the Incas, all happened in a very short period of time, by the end of the 15th and during the first half of the 16th century. The contact between the European and American populations, the meeting of the Two Worlds which could have been one of the most exciting events in history became instead the beginning of a collapse. New rules, new administration, new religion as well as new pathogens sped up the process. The indigenous populations of the New World, completely devoid of immunity to European pathogens, began to die out in a series of very frequent and violent outbreaks of epidemics. Many scholars have sought to provide an estimate of the scale of this extinction, concluding that 19 out of 20 inhabitants of the continent may have died in the first two hundred years after the initial contact. This holocaust-like process shaped the indigenous population of the Americas for centuries to come.
Outcomes of inquiry-based learning in health professions education: a scoping review
Authors: Verma Subhrata , Yacob Marina S , Kirpalani Amrit
Published: December 2022

Background: Open inquiry-based learning (IBL) that aims to foster higher-level thinking, is defined by students formulating their own questions and learning through exploration. The present study aimed to summarize the breadth of metrics used to evaluate health professions trainees in open IBL curricula.
Methods: We conducted a scoping review to identify publications detailing trainee outcomes in open IBL initiatives in health professions education. We queried five databases and included studies which described interventions with five phases of IBL (orientation, conceptualization, investigation, conclusion, and discussion). We completed abstract and full text reviews in duplicate. Data were collated and summarized.
Results: From 3030 record, 21 studies were included in the final extraction (k = 0.94), with nine involving physician trainees and twelve involving nursing trainees. Three studies used validated data collection tools to measure student inquiry behavior, and a single study used a validated data collection tool to measure critical thinking abilities. Most studies (n = 11) reported trainee self-reported satisfaction or perceived gain of skills as the primary outcome. All four studies using validated tools reported high scores in inquiry behaviors at the end of the curriculum and results on critical thinking skills were mixed. One study collected serial data, while remaining studies collected pre-post or post-only data.
Conclusion: IBL has the potential to cultivate a climate of curiosity among health professions learners. However, studies have relied heavily on subjective outcomes. Limited studies reported standardized measures of inquiry behaviors suggest favorable results. Curriculum innovations using IBL could make use of existing tools to better understand their impact on students’ inquiry-oriented skills.
The Man-impersonal Verb Forms of the Suffix Pronoun Conjugation in Earlier Egyptian
Authors: Díaz Hernández Roberto A.
Published: December 2022

In this paper, ti/tw is explained as a simplified noun originating in a masculine noun meaning “a body, a person (or similar)” in Proto-Egyptian, which was used as an indefinite subject just as “ome”/“omne” in Medieval Spanish and “man” in German when it follows an active verb form of the suffix pronoun conjugation. The historical development of the Earlier Egyptian man-impersonal verb paradigm will be studied focusing on the changes that each man-impersonal verb form with ti/tw underwent from Old Egyptian to Middle Egyptian, to conclude that the Earlier Egyptian man-impersonal verb paradigm (except in exceptional cases) permeated later forms of the language, just as it would do in other languages, such as Spanish.
Zur Sonderentwicklung des Ayin neben Het
Authors: Peust Carsten
Published: December 2022

“On the special development of Ayin near Het” The consonant represented by ‹o› (so-called oAyin, but originally a voiced dental stop or spirant) shows graphic peculiarities after the Old Kingdom if the same root contains a ‹H› (Oet). This paper presents all words hitherto known to display this feature and attempts to provide a phonetic interpretation. It is argued that the regular shift of the sound represented by ‹o› towards a pharyngeal spirant was suppressed under the said condition. Instead, the consonant either preserved its original dental articulation throughout the Middle Kingdom (at the end of a syllable, as well as immediately following ‹H›), or else it was lost altogether (at the beginning of a syllable unless immediately following ‹H›). Building upon these conclusions, some additional proposals concerning the historical phonology of Egyptian are advanced.

As a result of combined analysis of seismic surveys conducted in Gurgan-deniz and neighboring areas and logging data as well, the geological structure of the studied area was specified, various seismic attributes (both as by seismic cubes and by separate seismic surfaces) were calculated. To have a clear insight about the lithofacies variability of the studied area, corresponding 3D models have been developed.  With the purpose of restoring the sedimentation conditions, a facies analysis of the area based on the visual study of the length and configuration of seismic reflections, as well as seismic amplitudes has been carried out, the changes of the power of separate intervals in which we are interested have been studied and the logging of the facies conducted. To define the connection between the dynamic parameters of seismic records and geological properties of the area in the promising intervals, several attributes (Sweetness, RMS, Instantaneous Frequency, Variance etc.) have been calculated and analyzed. The calculation have been conducted in a large diapason for all productive horizons (marked as potential reservoir). Sharp changes in the composition of rocks in the studied area are associated with a periodic transgression and regression, as well as with the fluviation. Three types of geological phenomena may occur during specific periods of cycle turns of rising and lowering of sea level: progradation and regression (recession of the sea), retrogradation or transgression (sea movement towards shore) and aggradation (comparatively stable state of sea level). In the view of sharp variation of lithologic composition of the sediments, predominantly in the bottom of Productive Series (PT), we can conclude that highlighted facies are characteristic for specific parts of the studied area. When highlighting the facies, the direction of sedimentation material brought by the rivers and source of nourishment has been revealed. According to the results obtained, we suppose that almost each lithofacies type has its own distribution area. Therefore, the fluviation plays a significant role in the distribution of the facies in the studied area of the Caspian basin, as well as in the accumulation of hydrocarbons. Complex research surveys carried out enabled to mark specific perspective oil-gas bearing objects in Gurgan-deniz and neighboring areas.
The difficulties in achievement of observance of environmental standards: legal enforcement and stability
Authors:   Institute for Oil and Gas, Azerbaijan Republic, Aliyev E.M.
Published: December 2022

The speed of development of human society for the last fifty years threatens to lead the Earth and environment to a catastrophe. The development we observe today did not always exist. About four thousand years ago a human lived in a comparative harmony with the environment and did not harm it. However, as the human being developed and the tools he used advanced, the negative impact of human activity on the environment significantly increased. The mankind replied to this challenge – it developed and implemented environmental laws, norms and standards. Nevertheless, a great deal of rules could not prevent the damage on the environment due to the reasons reviewed in the paper. Thus, the author says, there is a significant mission before the humanity, which should be implemented by 2030. The mission consists of the decrease of harmful impact of human activity and environmental protection as well. Moreover, the author supposes that the laws of environment can play a significant role in support of this mission. He divides the theme into key aspects and reviews them. As a result, the paper studies the legal fundamentals of environmental laws and the ways of their introduction. The proportional spaces and global issues of environmental laws; their fragmental structure, poor attention to the environmental problems, the absence of efficient legal enforcement are just few of them. The paper generalizes the body of knowledge associated with the models of observance of environmental standards. Besides, the issues of legal enforcement, which various countries experience are discussed from a global point of view. In conclusion, the author suggests the views of how to support the observance of environmental norm.
The study of hydrodynamic forces effecting submarine riser in 300 m depth in the Caspian Sea
Authors:   “Oil-Gas Scientific Research Design” Institute, Azerbaijan Republic, Shahlarly M.E.
Published: December 2022

The subsea pipelines play a significant role in secure transportation of oil, gas and other energetic resources from the seabed to the shore and bases. The research of the hydrodynamic forces in the subsea pipelines and risers is a key factor from the point of view of regularity and efficiency of technological processes. The paper studies the impact of hydrodynamic forces affecting the subsea pipelines in the Caspian Sea. For diameter and thickness of pipe wall selected according to the ASME B36.10 standard, the forces of wind, wave and current, as well as the combination of forces affecting it were studied. The research was carried out in SACS computer software for three cases; as a result, the simulation and a table of force combinations for the optimum and unwanted occurrences appearing due to the impact of hydrodynamic forces and load combination were developed.

The paper offers a classification of pipelines for the characteristics of efficiency of operation of existing system of pipelines, as well as for prediction of further fails. Oil and oil-gas subsea pipelines, which are in the balance of analyzed OGPD, have been divided into three conditional groups by construction years. As a result of such a conditional distribution, an attention is paid to the necessity of appropriate estimation of operation resource, quality standard and technical condition of the pipelines in the first group. Although the classification partly characterizes the technical condition of the pipelines, it is quite a practical diagnostic tool in the struggle against the decrease of reliability and quality of the subsea pipelines operated in recent 20-30 years in the complicated offshore conditions with increasing probability of failures and risks in transportation system. Offered classification covers all subsea pipelines used in the development of offshore fields, as well as can serve for improvement of their operation reliability.
The sound of swearing: Are there universal patterns in profanity?
Authors: Lev-Ari Shiri , McKay Ryan
Published: December 2022

Why do swear words sound the way they do? Swear words are often thought to have sounds that render them especially fit for purpose, facilitating the expression of emotion and attitude. To date, however, there has been no systematic cross-linguistic investigation of phonetic patterns in profanity. In an initial, pilot study we explored statistical regularities in the sounds of swear words across a range of typologically distant languages. The best candidate for a cross-linguistic phonemic pattern in profanity was the absence of approximants (sonorous sounds like l, r, w and y). In Study 1, native speakers of various languages (Arabic, Chinese, Finnish, French, German, Spanish; N = 215) judged foreign words less likely to be swear words if they contained an approximant. In Study 2 we found that sanitized versions of English swear words – like darn instead of damn – contain significantly more approximants than the original swear words. Our findings reveal that not all sounds are equally suitable for profanity, and demonstrate that sound symbolism – wherein certain sounds are intrinsically associated with certain meanings – is more pervasive than has previously been appreciated, extending beyond denoting single concepts to serving pragmatic functions.
Coherent amplification of radiation from two phase-locked Josephson junction arrays
Authors: Galin Mikhail A , Krasnov Vladimir M , Shereshevsky Ilya A , Vdovicheva Nadezhda K , Kurin Vladislav V
Published: December 2022

We analyze experimentally and theoretically mutual phase locking and electromagnetic interaction between two linear arrays with a large number of Josephson junctions. Arrays with different separation, either on the same chip or on two separate substrates are studied. We observe a large coherent gain, up to a factor of three, of emitted power from two simultaneously biased arrays, compared to the sum of powers from two individually biased arrays. The phenomenon is attributed to the phase locking of junctions in different arrays via a common electromagnetic field. Remarkably, the gain can exceed the factor of two expected for a simple constructive interference of two oscillators. The larger gain is explained by an additional consequence of mutual interaction between two large arrays. Mutual phase locking of large arrays does not only result in constructive interference outside the arrays, but also improved synchronization of junctions inside each array. Our conclusion is supported by numerical modelling.

Published: December 2022

The regulation of the flow of the Volga River by the Zhigulevskaya HPS has changed the living conditions for many fish species. At the same time, the pelagial was a completely new type of biotope for the fish population. The fish population of the Kuibyshev reservoir, newly formed in the pelagial, began to have certain features inherent in this biotope. Currently, according to the results of four years of research, 18 species of fish have been noted here, belonging to 5 families, the basis of which are five species - kilka, sabrefish, bleak, pike perch and bream. It was revealed that the Volga part of the reservoir is more productive than the Kama part, and pelagic fish communities have a certain vertical distribution and migration through the water column, mainly occupying the biomass accumulation zone. The absence of a fishing fleet and the trend in the development of fishing on the reservoir casts doubt on the further rational use of aquatic biological resources in this ecological zone of the Kuibyshev reservoir.

La calidad de atención en los servicios de ginecobstetricia se encuentra ligada a la demanda de los servicios de salud ofertados e influye de forma indirecta en la modificación de los indicadores de salud reproductiva, por lo que se plantea evaluar la satisfacción percibida por parte de los usuarios del servicio. El objetivo fue determinar la relación entre la calidad de atención y satisfacción de las usuarias del servicio de ginecología y obstetricia de un hospital especializado nivel II-2. La investigación fue de enfoque cuantitativo, observacional, correlacional y transversal. Los datos fueron recogidos mediante encuestas estructuradas bajo el modelo SERVQUAL. Se encontró que existe una correlación directamente proporcional entre la calidad de atención y sus diferentes dimensiones evaluadas, siendo la dimensión tangible la de mayor calidad con un nivel de aceptación del 96,50%, seguido de empatía, la capacidad de respuesta, seguridad y fiabilidad. Se concluye que existe una relación significativamente alta entre la calidad de la atención y la satisfacción por parte de las usuarias del servicio de ginecobstetricia atendidas en el hospital.

The myeloperoxidase levels of 208 patients with ischemic heart disease hospitalized for congestive heart failure were tested at admission, and discharge after 14 days. The calculations for the serum average concentration/lot/date, were made, subsequent, using the values of the tested parameters regarding MPO (admission and discharge) the mean concentration/lot was made, regardless of time of determination. The calculated average values analyses of the three MPO serum parameters were constantly elevated and permanently matched the myocardial contractility deficiency class. The integrated data of the study, allows us to propose the MPO’s circulating concentration as a diagnosis and risk assessment biomarker in the etiology of myocardial ischemia for chronic cardiac failure.

Prematurity affects 1 in 10 births and is associated with different degrees of disability and leads to a higher risk of neurological impairment and cerebral palsy (CP). Because its prevalence increase, but with a decrease in mortality rate, there is a burden of survivors that develop sequelae, a problem for the healthcare systems worldwide and for the patient’s social integration. Magnesium sulfate is a useful tool to limit the development of such complications. The risk factors for preterm brain injury act antenatally, intrapartum and postpartum. Even though there are several trials that tried to assess it benefits, magnesium sulfate is on the D list of U.S. Food and Drug Administration for pregnancy and several Societies of Obstetrics and Gynecology tried to implement national guidelines for its safe use. In conclusion it should be used with caution, within 24 hours before birth and under medical surveillance and to administer it only in pregnancies that are at high risk of premature childbirth. If there is a medical emergency involving the mother or the fetus, delivery should not be postponed in order to administer de magnesium sulfate.
Agamben ve Homo Sacer

Published: December 2022

Giorgio Agamben’in siyaset felsefesine kazandırdığı Homo sacer kavramı, geçmişten günümüze siyasetin çözümlenmesinde oldukça önemli bir rol oynamıştır. O nedenle bu çalışmada, kutsal insanın kutsallığını denetleyip, tarihi okumalardan hareketle, bu esrarengiz figürün tüm yanlarına bir açıklama getirilmeye çalışılmıştır. Öncelikle, terim olarak nasıl ortaya çıktığından başlayarak, tarih içerisinde anlamını nasıl kazandığına ve nasıl değiştiğine odaklanılmıştır. Homo sacer’in başına gelenler doğrultusunda oluşan istisna halinin, modern siyaseti nasıl biyosiyasetle özdeş kıldığına, ortaya çıkan siyasi platform irdelenerek, homo sacer’in egemenlik karşısında, nasılda çıplak bir hayata sürüldüğü gözler önüne sunulmuştur. Çıplak hayatın içerisinde kurban olarak sıfatlanan homo sacer’in, benzer figürler ile kıyaslanması sonucunda bir netlik kazandırılmıştır. Agamben’in teolojik yanları ile homo sacer’in çelişkileri gözlemlenmiş, sonuç olaraksa bu figür ile ortaya konan geniş bir tarihsel dizge aydınlatılmaya çalışılmıştır.

A global pandemic of coronavirus COVID-19 affects the manufacturing supply chains significantly. This study aims to identify and evaluate the reaction of manufacturing supply chains in using the concept of double-loop learning to mitigate the disruptions induced by COVID-19 at the early stage of pandemic. A two-stage research process has been developed that firstly involves determining the learning pattern of enterprises in industrial supply chains and identifying actions taken. Then, the relationship between taking actions in the field of double-loop learning in the manufacturing supply chains and expecting a change in their market situation, and having knowledge in the field of adaptation to changes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic was examined. The study shows that there is a high level of caution in taking proactive measures in supply chains and a lack of knowledge in the field of adapting industrial supply chains to sudden disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The formation and evolution pathway for the directly imaged multiplanetary system HR 8799 remains mysterious. Accurate constraints on the chemical composition of the planetary atmosphere(s) are key to solving the mystery. We perform a detailed atmospheric retrieval on HR 8799 c to infer the chemical abundances and abundance ratios using a combination of photometric data along with low- and high-resolution spectroscopic data (R ∼ 20–35,000). We specifically retrieve [C/H], [O/H], and C/O and find them to be

at 68% confidence. The superstellar C and O abundances, yet a stellar C/O ratio, reveal a potential formation pathway for HR 8799 c. Planet c, and likely the other gas giant planets in the system, formed early on (likely within ∼1 Myr), followed by further atmospheric enrichment in C and O through the accretion of solids beyond the CO ice line. The enrichment either preceded or took place during the early phase of the inward migration to the current planet locations.
A Global Simulation of the Dynamo, Zonal Jets, and Vortices on Saturn
Authors: Yadav Rakesh Kumar , Cao Hao , Bloxham Jeremy
Published: December 2022

The fluid dynamics planet Saturn gives rise to alternating east–west jet streams, large cyclonic and anticyclonic vortices, and a dipole-dominant magnetic field that is highly axisymmetric about the planetary rotation axis. Modeling these features in a self-consistent manner is crucial for understanding the dynamics of Saturn’s interior and atmosphere. Here we report a turbulent high-resolution dynamo simulation in a spherical shell that produces these features simultaneously for the first time. A crucial model ingredient is a long-hypothesized stably stratified layer (SSL), sandwiched between a deep metallic hydrogen layer and an outer low-conductivity molecular layer, born out of the limited solubility of helium inside metallic hydrogen at certain depths. The model spontaneously produces polar cyclones and significant low-latitude and midlatitude jet stream activity in the molecular layer. The off-equatorial low-latitude jet streams partially penetrate into the SSL and interact with the magnetic field. This helps to axisymmetrize the magnetic field about the rotation axis and convert some of the poloidal magnetic field to a toroidal field, which appears as two global magnetic energy rings surrounding the deeper dynamo region. The simulation also mimics a distinctive dip in the fifth spherical harmonic in Saturn’s magnetic energy spectrum as inferred from the Cassini Grand Finale measurements. Our model highlights the role of an SSL in shaping the fluid dynamical and magnetic features of giant planets, as exemplified at Saturn.
