Authors: Domingues de Castro Mario , Suffredini Ivana B. , Bonamin Leoni
Published: December 2024

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative inflammatory process and a common clinical condition in the equines, being the leading cause of performance loss and early retirement. This study proposes an innovative treatment for this affection when in a light or moderate degree, using the association between a commercial homeopathic complex Drenareuma WPTM (Curitiba, Brazil) composed of Bryonia alba 4cH, Mezereum 6cH, Ranunculus bulbosus 5cH, Rhus Toxicodendron 5cH, Ruta graveolens 5cH and excipients, administered in pills (one pill each day for 90 days) and a daily topic treatment of an ointment made from Cordia verbenacea extract and excipients - CuradermyTM (São Paulo, Brazil). Ten horses were selected, in sequence, from the UNIP veterinary polyclinics, São José dos Campos, Brazil, according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and the tutor expressed writing agreement. On days zero and 90, the animals were carefully examined following a standard clinical protocol and submitted to image diagnosis techniques of the affected carpus-phalanges articulation at orthogonal X-ray projections and ultrasound images of dorsal-palmar/latero-medial faces at longitudinal/transversal sections. The final observation was scored according to the Naranjo modified criteria. On day zero, there was an apparent volume increase of soft tissues with reduced articular space, bone lysis, subchondral bone sclerosis, and periarticular osteophytes. On day 90, all animals presented some clinical improvement, with no claudication, decreased subchondral bone sclerosis, bone lysis, periosteal reaction, and osteophytes, showing an apparent articular regeneration. There were no observable side effects. The Naranjo scores varied from 10 to 11, with a maximum of 13 points. The results indicate the effectiveness of the proposed protocol, which justifies a further randomized clinical trial to establish its putative efficacy. This study was approved by the UNIP ethics committee (CEUA nº 1847210823).
Zebrafish Research Model: Homeopathy in Heavy Metal Intoxication
Authors: Coelho Cideli de Paula , Lucco Rejane Cristina
Published: December 2024

Environmental contamination by heavy metals is a significant global concern due to its adverse impacts on human, animal, and ecosystem health. Heavy metals such as lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), and arsenic (As) are particularly worrying because of their persistence in the environment and toxic potential. These metals can be found in water bodies, affecting the quality of drinking water and aquatic ecosystems. Exposure to these metals through water can cause acute and chronic poisoning, damage to kidneys, liver, and nervous system, and increase the risk of cancer. Homeopathic medicines have great potential for treating intoxications and have been demonstrated clinically; however, other medicines still need to be tested. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) is used to study the toxicity of hazardous chemicals, including the assessment of impacts on reproductive, cardiovascular, and neural development, making it a relevant model to explore the efficacy and safety of homeopathic treatments. Studies on arsenate, mercury, and lead intoxication using the aquatic model have shown that homeopathic medicines (Arsenicum album, Mercurius solubilis, and Plumbum metallicum) reduced anxiety as well as physical and neurological effects caused by fish intoxication. The advantages of using Zebrafish as a research model include small size and low maintenance cost, rapid development, high fecundity, and external reproduction, as well as sequenced genome and genetic similarity to humans. This makes Danio rerio a model used worldwide.
Treatment of Otitis Externa in Cats (Malassezia sp): Epidemic Genius
Authors: M. Garcia Bido Elaine , Coelho Cideli de Paula
Published: December 2024

External otitis is one of the primary complaints affecting small animals. Traditional treatments, such as antibiotics and topical medications, have varying degrees of success and often result in side effects or incomplete resolution of symptoms. Therefore, the search for more effective and safer treatments is crucial. Homeopathic medicine offers an alternative approach, using substances that stimulate the body's innate healing abilities by considering the individual’s specific symptoms, temperament, and overall health to promote lasting healing. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of homeopathic treatment for external otitis in cats by examining clinical outcomes and providing insights for future treatment protocols. Eight female cats with pruritus were examined. Upon examination and plate analysis, many Malassezia sp. were observed. Based on the clinical signs demonstrated by the animals, symptoms were selected for repertorization and medication choice (Epidemic Genius). The eight cats received Apis mellifica 12 cH, Malassezia sp. 30 cH in their drinking water for 15 days, and Calendula Glyceroleum for external use for daily cleaning. After one week of treatment, new samples were collected for analysis of the ear canal and testing for Malassezia sp. It was found that 100% of the animals no longer presented Malassezia sp. in the examination or had an extremely low number (considered normal). Homeopathy, through treatment with Epidemic Genius, proved to be effective in treating the eight cats.
Evaluating the Evidence for Homeopathy: Current Status and Outlook
Authors: Schlingensiepen Irene , Frei Heiner , Steinmann Diana
Published: December 2024

Background
The debate over homeopathy's efficacy remains contentious, influencing recent decisions by political and medical associations in Europe.
Objective
An assessment of the current level of evidence supporting homeopathic medicine.
Methods
We explored three key aspects of evidence-based medicine:

Scientific Evidence in Conventional Medicine: We reviewed cardiology and oncology guidelines and studies to find parallels in homeopathy, focusing on study designs like cohort studies and adherence to Cochrane criteria. We also examined basic research standards for potentised substances in homeopathy.
Patient Preferences: We surveyed patient preferences regarding homeopathic treatments.
Clinical Expertise: We assessed correlation to therapists´s competence and perspectives on homeopathy.

Results
In conventional medicine, many guidelines are based on high-quality studies and meta-analyses, though the overall evidence is not as comprehensive as often assumed. This highlights the need for more high-quality research in internal medicine. In homeopathy, the number of clinical studies meeting Cochrane criteria has increased since 2001, including randomized-controlled, placebo-controlled, and double-blind studies. The scientific rigor and quality of homeopathic research have notably improved, especially in basic research.
Conclusion
There is a critical need for more high-standard research across all medical fields. With many European universities limiting homeopathic research, it is vital to share positive findings to encourage further studies. All three pillars of evidence - scientific research, patient preferences, and clinical expertise - support continued research in homeopathy. Research institutions are essential in advancing this important development.
35 years of Ultra-high dilution research on an amphibian model
Authors: Endler Peter Christian , Scherer Waltraud
Published: December 2024

Our line of study since the 1990s has been based on a model on frog tadpoles (Rana temporaria) from a highland biotope and the hormone thyroxine, stepwise agitated and diluted up to thyroxine 30x. It is assumed that highland tadpoles have higher thyroxine levels during metamorphosis to cope with their specific environment than tadpoles from lowland biotopes. In follow-up experiments, we aimed to replace the naturally elevated hormone level in highland frogs by immersing lowland animals in an aqueous molecular dilution of thyroxine (10e-8 parts by weight). Treatment with molecular thyroxine is known to speed up metamorphosis, i.e. we used pre-stimulated animals here. Following the homeopathic idea of detoxication or cure, pre-stimulated animals were treated with either thyroxin 30x or analogously prepared control solution (water 30x). Development was monitored by documenting the number of animals that had reached the four-legged stage. It was found that animals treated with thyroxine 30x metamorphosed more slowly than the water 30x treated animals, i.e. the effect of the homeopathically prepared thyroxin was the opposite of the usual stimulating effect of molecular thyroxin. The number of test animals that reached the 4-legged stage at defined points in time was slightly lower in the group treated with homeopathically prepared thyroxine compared to the control. Several repetitions were made by the same and other research groups, with reproducible results, including the most recent repetition made in 2023, with promising results. Overall results sustain the findings of several multi-center researchers that highly diluted homeopathically prepared thyroxine can slow down the metamorphosis of Rana spp, and they lead to the conclusion that an increased thyroxine level is required to induce the antagonistic effect of homeopathically prepared thyroxine.
Weak liquid water path response in ship tracks

Published: December 2024

Abstract. The assessment of aerosol–cloud interactions remains a major source of uncertainty in understanding climate change, partly due to the difficulty in making accurate observations of aerosol impacts on clouds. Ships can release large numbers of aerosols that serve as cloud condensation nuclei, which can create artificially brightened clouds known as ship tracks. These aerosol emissions offer a “natural”, or “opportunistic”, experiment to explore aerosol effects on clouds, while also disentangling meteorological influences. Utilizing ship positions and reanalysis wind fields, we predict ship track locations, colocating them with satellite data to depict the temporal evolution of cloud properties after an aerosol perturbation. Repeating our analysis for a null experiment does not necessarily recover zero signal as expected; instead, it reveals subtleties between different null-experiment methodologies. This study uncovers a systematic bias in prior ship track research, due to the assumption that background gradients will, on average, be linear. We correct for this bias, which is linked to the correlation between wind fields and cloud properties, to reveal the true ship track response. We find that, once this bias is corrected for, the liquid water path (LWP) response after an aerosol perturbation is weak on average. This has important implications for estimates of radiative forcings due to LWP adjustments, as previous responses in unstable cases were overestimated. A noticeable LWP response is only recovered in specific cases, such as marine stratocumulus clouds, where a positive LWP response is found in precipitating or clean clouds. This work highlights subtleties in the analysis of isolated opportunistic experiments, reconciling differences in the LWP response to aerosols reported in previous studies.
Brownness of organics in anthropogenic biomass burning aerosols over South Asia
Authors: Navinya Chimurkar , Kapoor Taveen Singh , Anurag Gupta , Venkataraman Chandra , Phuleria Harish C. , Chakrabarty Rajan K.
Published: December 2024

Abstract. In South Asia, biomass is burned for energy and waste disposal, producing brown carbon (BrC) aerosols whose climatic impacts are highly uncertain. To assess these impacts, a real-world understanding of BrC's physio-optical properties is essential. For this region, the order-of-magnitude variability in BrC's spectral refractive index as a function of particle volatility distribution is poorly understood. This leads to oversimplified model parameterization and subsequent uncertainty in regional radiative forcing. Here we used the field-collected aerosol samples from major anthropogenic biomass activities to examine the methanol-soluble BrC optical properties. We show a strong relation between the absorption strength, wavelength dependence, and thermo-optical fractions of carbonaceous aerosols. Our observations show strongly absorbing BrC near the Himalayan foothills that may accelerate glacier melt, further highlighting the limitations of climate models where variable BrC properties are not considered. These findings provide crucial inputs for refining climate models and developing effective regional strategies to mitigate BrC emissions.

Published: December 2024

Abstract. We investigate the impact of increasing horizontal model resolution on the oceanic mixing processes in the North Atlantic, their drivers, their link with the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), and the propagation of newly generated dense waters through the deep western boundary current (DWBC). We use three versions of the EC-Earth Earth System Model, one of standard resolution (SR, ~ 1° in the ocean), one of high resolution (HR, ~ 0.25° in the ocean) and one of very high resolution (VHR, ~ 1/12° in the ocean). The higher resolutions allow for the explicit simulation of mesoscale processes that are parametrized at the coarse resolution, with additional improvements in ocean topography, boundary currents and air-sea interactions. We find that the North Atlantic Oscillation plays a critical role in driving the mixed layer depth (MLD) in the Labrador Sea at HR and VHR. The three resolutions also show the influence of surface salinity signals in the mixing, with the VHR configuration showing a distinct slow propagation of these signals from the eastern subpolar gyre into the Labrador Sea. Furthermore, March MLD shows a strong positive bias in HR, which is reduced in VHR. In terms of the AMOC, resolution plays a pivotal role in shaping its response to the mixing. At the higher resolutions, the signal of the newly formed dense waters propagates faster along the better-resolved boundary current, indicating a shift from advective propagation to wave propagation of the signals. Additionally, the persistence of the AMOC responses to MLD is much shorter in VHR (less than 2 years) than for SR and HR, which exhibit longer-lived changes. These differences highlight how resolution affects both the timing and spatial reach of the AMOC changes. Our study underscores the importance of model resolution in accurately simulating the North Atlantic's oceanic processes and their implications for the AMOC. While the VHR configuration offers a more realistic climatology of the Labrador Sea MLD, the results also demonstrate significant differences in variability and persistence across resolutions. These findings stress the need for high-resolution simulations to improve the understanding of deep ocean processes and their connection to larger climate systems, although they also highlight challenges in comparing simulated and observed data, particularly given the sparse historical observations and the lack of decadal variability in the model simulations.
From Veronal to Quviviq
Authors: Faure Pascaline
Published: December 2024

Since the 19th century and the Industrial Revolution, insomnia has become a major public health issue. Attracted by the financial potential, the pharmaceutical industry quickly turned its attention to this emerging market. However, in a competitive market, pharmaceutical manufacturers had to create distinct product identities. One determining factor when creating an identity is trade name choice. This study investigates changes in trade names for insomnia medicines, from Veronal in 1903 to Quviviq, the latest drug launched in 2022. The lexicological analysis reveals that names have shifted from associative to abstract names. While older trade names had symbolic meaning, newer names were found to place the emphasis on phonetically pleasing onomastic patterns.
What's in a Tibetan name?
Authors: Wodzer Thupten
Published: December 2024

Toponyms of the Tibetan Plateau have been scarcely studied. To help address that need, this study explores cross-cultural toponymy and phonetic opacity. The investigation focuses on toponyms containing the Tibetan word བྱ tza ‘bird’ that are used in Yulshul County in the Sanjiangyuan National Park, Qinghai Province. The research is based on personal interviews with 56 respondents and analyzing transliterations of bird-related toponyms for river, valley, and mountain names. Additionally, bird watching was used to gain important environmental insights. Twenty-nine bird-related toponyms were discovered and 59 bird species were recorded in the valley. There was no shared cognitive understanding of the toponyms Bird River and Bird Trace Valley.  It is speculated that this result may be due to the coupling effect of pronunciation nuance in the local Tibetan dialect and misleading transliterations in Chinese. Overall, the findings tentatively suggest the systematic and consistent Chinese transliteration of local Tibetan toponyms related to birds is important for keeping the connotations of these toponyms alive.

Using predictive analytics systems to resolve a legal dispute
Authors: K. Zharova Anna
Published: December 2024

Increasingly, in the mass media, we hear about examples of using predictive analytics systems to obtain solutions to legal disputes. However, from the viewpoint of legal regulation, the question arises: Can we consider a solution proposed by the system to be final and legally significant, or just one of a possible set of solutions? A parallel with legal principles is drawn in the scientific literature analyzing the prospects for such systems application. Researchers come to disappointing predictions about possible risks to human rights and freedoms if the solutions proposed by predictive systems are approved without human participation. In our study, we came to the following conclusions. Firstly, at the moment of technological development, intelligent systems cannot explain why they make certain decisions. Secondly, because the system’s decision-making is not transparent, it is incorrect to assume that programmers or developers replace the judge. The role of programmers and developers of an intelligent system model is very important but purely technical. Thirdly, the problem of inaccuracy in the system’s decisions refers only to the stage of system training. The higher the quality of the datasets and the more data sets there are, the more accurate the decision made by this technology will be. That is why forming correct datasets is an independent and challenging technological task.

A responsabilidade social corporativa e a teoria da agência: reflexos na reputação empresarial
Authors: Osdival Gonçalves Oksandro , Ferreira Piccoli Maria Eduarda , Gorny Becher Romy
Published: December 2024

The corporate social responsibility component is radically transforming the way shareholders relate to their stakeholders and the society in which the company operates. Thus, there is an invitation for the performance of companies to be measured and evaluated not only based on shareholder returns, but also based on compliance with environmental, social and governance objectives, which, if met, end up generating positive and profitable reputational reflexes. However, due to the voluntary nature of corporate social responsibility, agency conflicts between managers and shareholders are identified. The objective of this study is to analyze what can be effectively expected from the voluntary initiatives of company managers, who act on behalf of shareholders, but whose interests are not always aligned with theirs. For the development of the research, the hypothetical-deductive scientific method and the bibliographic research technique were used. Firstly, it was verified which were the initiatives in recent history that broke with the reductionist view of the market, as well as the importance of corporate social responsibility for the reputation of companies. Next, the agency conflicts that arise between managers and shareholders in such a context were analyzed, weighing the externalities generated to society as a whole. At the end, the conclusions of this work were presented, in which the importance of institutional mechanisms to transform social responsibility into effective internal policies was analyzed, aligning the objectives of all those involved in the business activity to each specific case.

Si bien no elaboró ningún trabajo donde expusiera específicamente su comprensión de Nakba, ésta sobrevoló la mayor parte de sus escritos. Así, nuestro objetivo es doble: examinar cómo su interpretación de la Nakba se transformaba según acaecían los acontecimientos políticos en Palestina; e indagar en si articuló una comprensión de la dominación, la lucha y la liberación con pretensiones interventoras en el presente. Para ello analizaremos sus obras, ensayos, artículos y entrevistas a la luz de la historia conceptual de Koselleck y el concepto de “experiencia” de Walter Benjamin. El último nos permite liberar el potencial revolucionario de la Nakba como experiencia colectiva trascendiendo la comprensión que hace de ella un suceso histórico más, y el primero nos revela su carácter performativo. Desde aquí abordaremos los escritos saidianos buscando conocer si Said ofrece una reflexión de la Nakba que entrañe una dimensión práctica capaz de ofrecer al pueblo palestino una experiencia liberada del dominio sionista. Sin embargo, concluiremos, los términos en que Said la formula impide que Nakba desate su potencial liberador.
Enhancing Foreign-Language Creativity: A Didactic Approach through Audio Description
Authors: Ogea Pozo María del Mar , Ruiz Espejel Beatriz
Published: December 2024

This paper appraises the potential benefits of didactic audiovisual translation, aiming to enhance learners’ acquisition and proficiency of English as an L2 through audio description techniques. These action-oriented tasks involve two phases: a systematic analysis of the source audiovisual text, and a cross-modal rendering of meaning into a suitable target text, in which learners are required not only to be faithful to the visual information, but also be fluent in the target language to produce an accurate and effective audio description.
In this regard, a qualitative study has been conducted to assess the learning outcomes of participants in a course on didactic audio description, particularly in terms of speaking skills and creativity.  For this purpose, a corpus has been compiled from the transcripts of their audio descriptions in English. This corpus allows for the exploration of how learners describe orally visual aspects related to actions, physical appearance, and emotions, as well as their competence in expressiveness, utterance, and other communicative skills.
The learning outcomes related to speaking skills and creativity are promising, and advocate for a more comprehensive and integrated pedagogical approach to Audiovisual Translation teaching in the Translation and Interpreting and the Foreign Language Education curricula.
Mercantilización de los cuerpos de las mujeres en los medios de comunicación para jóvenes rebeldes: el “capital de la transgresión”
Authors: Otero Irene
Published: December 2024

Resumen. Introducción. Este artículo aborda el papel de los medios de comunicación como agentes normalizadores de la mercantilización de las mujeres en sociedades formalmente igualitarias, en concreto de aquellos medios dirigidos a jóvenes y que definen sus líneas editoriales como transgresoras. Así mismo, se estudiará el propio valor simbólico de esta “transgresión” como capital de las cabeceras de estos medios y de su imagen de marca. Objetivos. En primer lugar, analizar el papel de los medios en la construcción y difusión de las “identidades rebeldes” que consume la juventud. En segundo lugar, concretar los discursos por las que esta audiencia interioriza la pornografía y la prostitución como prácticas subversivas y disidentes. Metodología. A través de un enfoque interdisciplinar, el texto efectúa una revisión del proceso de resignificación del término “feminismo” en “posfeminismo” como eje vertebrador de la investigación. En una segunda parte, se realiza una aproximación conceptual a la “filosofía de la transgresión”, como fundamento legitimador de los discursos posfeministas. Como trabajo de campo, se han seleccionado tres revistas, Vice Magazine, PlayGround y Teen Vogue, representativas por su elevado número de seguidores y por sus publicaciones frecuentes de contenidos favorables a la mercantilización de las mujeres como forma de empoderamiento femenino. Conclusiones. Esta investigación concluye, por un lado, que la “transgresión” representa un capital simbólico clave en la venta de contenidos a jóvenes. Por otro, que la transgresión mediática es, en realidad, una representación de la transgresión integrada en los valores del sistema y acorde a la titularidad y a los intereses privados de los medios que la reproducen. Para lograr esta simulación, se utilizan discursos evocadores de la lucha social y la retórica de la disidencia sexual que, como se expone, carecen de un análisis profundo de opresión de género o clase.

Introducción y Objetivos. Este trabajo analiza las creencias sobre prostitución que diferencian a los grupos de población general de los profesionales abolicionistas, con el fin último de orientar un taller de sensibilización para la población adolescente sobre el consumo de prostitución. Metodología. El instrumento fue un cuestionario ad-hoc con el que se recogió información de datos sociodemográficos como el sexo, la edad, y procedencia o centro de estudios, empresa o entidad. En el primer estudio ha participado una muestra comunitaria de 121 estudiantes, un 82,6% (n=100) eran mujeres y el resto hombres (n=21; 17.4%), con una edad media de 21,5 años (dt: ±4.7; Rango: 19-49), y una muestra de 160 profesionales o “personas sensibilizadas” de la que el 75% (n=120) eran mujeres y el resto hombres (n=40; 25%) con edad media fue de 40 años (dt: ±13.7; Rango: 18-72). En el segundo estudio participaron 544 adolescentes, 229 de ellos son hombres (42,1%) y 315 mujeres (57,9%) con una media de edad de 15,94 años (± 0,494; Rango: 14-19). Resultados. Los resultados confirman como la población general muestra posicionamientos menos contundentes respecto de la vinculación de la trata con prostitución, de que la prostitución suponga violencia contra la mujer, sea una violación de su dignidad, o suponga forzar un comportamiento sexual no deseado, siendo esta postura significativamente más ambivalente o de menor desacuerdo cuando hablamos de las respuestas de los hombres. Sin embargo, las creencias de otros grupos como profesionales o personas sensibilizadas muestran mayor posicionamiento diferenciándose de la población general, con elevado grado de acuerdo respecto de que, la prostitución es una violación de la dignidad de la mujer, es forzar un comportamiento sexual no deseado, y es violencia contra la mujer. Conclusiones. En la adolescencia no abundan estudios específicos de sensibilización sobre prostitución, a pesar de ser esta una etapa vital de desarrollo de relaciones afectivo-sexuales en las que es importante prevenir el riesgo “potencial” como posibles consumidores de prostitución en un futuro.
Problemática de género de mujeres académicas en instituciones de investigación masculinizadas. Estudio de caso.
Authors: Martínez Corona Beatriz , Méndez Cadena María Esther
Published: December 2024

Introducción. Diversos obstáculos son enfrentados por mujeres académicas de educación superior, ante culturas y prácticas que afectan su productividad y bienestar. Objetivo. Se pretende analizar la problemática de género y violencia que viven mujeres académicas en instituciones de educación superior masculinizadas, en particular la presencia de mobbing y la revictimización ante protocolos de actuación insuficientes. Metodología. Se empleó un enfoque cualitativo etnográfico de investigación, con el uso de narrativas y entrevistas semiestructuradas, observación del clima institucional y la revisión de procedimientos dirigidos a la prevención y atención a la violencia de género, como estudio de caso. La interpretación de los datos fue a través de teoría fundamentada con enfoque constructivista. Resultados y discusión. A pesar de la existencia de normatividades y compromisos gubernamentales sobre la prevención y atención a la violencia en diferentes ámbitos, en las instituciones de educación superior y de posgrado, esta se continúa ejerciendo sin considerar los efectos adversos que viven las académicas, en su salud física y emocional y aún en su productividad. El acoso laboral entre iguales, también llamado mobbing es muy frecuente y es poco atendido a pesar de la formalización de denuncias al respecto, los mecanismos no son suficientes ni adecuados para su sanción y prevención además de la ineficiente operacionalización de éstos por no contar con personal calificado para ello y resistencias para llevarlo a cabo. La protesta organizada de mujeres a través de diferentes medios se ha hecho visible. Conclusiones. Son necesarias actuaciones que trastoquen privilegios e ideologías patriarcales que conducen a la reproducción de la violencia de género en sus diferentes manifestaciones en los espacios académicos. El mobbing puede ser sofisticado y disimulado, ocurre en lugares de trabajo donde se privilegia la racionalidad, de ahí que se hace necesaria la generación de conocimiento sobre el tema para su visibilización, sanción y prevención.
