Geometric progressions in distance spaces; applications to fixed points and coincidence points
Authors: Zhukovskiy Evgeny Semenovich
Published: August 2023

Conditions on spaces $X$ with generalized distance $\rho_X$ are investigates under which analogues of Banach's and Nadler's fixed-point theorems and Arutyunov's coincidence-point theorem can be obtained for mappings on such spaces. This is shown to hold if each geometric progression with ratio $<1$ (that is, each sequence $\{ x_i\}\subset X$ satisfying $\rho_X(x_{i+1},x_i)\leq \gamma \rho_X(x_i,x_{i-1})$, $ i=1,2,…$, with some $\gamma < 1$) is convergent. Examples of spaces with and without this property are given. In particular, the required property holds in a complete $f$-quasimetric space $X$ if the distance $\rho_X$ in it satisfies $\rho_X(x,z) \leq \rho_X(x,y)+(\rho_X(y,z))^\eta$, $x,y,z \in X$, for some $\eta\in (0,1)$, that is, if the function $f\colon\mathbb{R}_+^{2} \to \mathbb{R}_+$ is given by $f(r_1,r_2)=r_1 + r_2^{\eta}$. Next, for $f(r_1,r_2)=\max\{ r_1^{\eta}, r_2^{\eta} \}$, where $\eta \in (0,2^{-1}]$, it is shown that for any $\gamma > 0$ there exists an $f$-quasimetric space containing a geometric progression with ratio $\gamma$ which is not a Cauchy sequence. The ‘zero-one law’, which means that either each geometric progression with ratio $<1$ is a Cauchy sequence or, for any $\gamma\in (0,1)$, there exists a geometric progression with ratio $\gamma$ that is not Cauchy, is discussed for $f$-quasimetric spaces.

Electrochemical micromachining and parameter optimization on AZ31 alloy—ANN and TOPSIS techniques
Authors: Sivashankar N. , Thanigaivelan R. , G. Saravanan K.
Published: August 2023

ABSTRACT. Electrochemical micromachining (ECM) is a nontraditional method used for machining operations in hard and light materials with fixed or varying parameters. In this study, magnesium AZ31 alloy was micro machined using two types of electrolyte supply systems, namely electrolyte flooding and minimum quantity electrolyte (MQE). Experimental investigations were performed using TOPSIS and artificial neural network (ANN) techniques with types of electrolyte supply system, electrolyte concentration (EC), duty cycle (%), and machining voltage (V) as the input parameters, and material removal rate (MRR) and over cut (OC) as the outputs. Single and multi-objective parameter optimization was performed using Taguchi, TOPSIS, and ANN techniques. The machined microholes were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy. According to the TOPSIS results, under optimal conditions, a high MRR value and minimum OC of 1.282 μm/s and 66 μm, respectively, were obtained. The results of TOPSIS were verified using the developed ANN architecture.

Published: August 2023

ABSTRACT. For acyclovir (ACV) determination in bulk and dosage forms, quick, sensitive, straightforward, and eco-friendly ultrasound-assisted dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (UA-DLLME)-based spectrophotometric method has been created and validated. ACV with 1,2-naphthoquine-4-sulfonate (NQS) react in alkaline medium to produce a yellow-colored product, which is the basis of the newly created method. Investigation and optimization were done on the crucial experimental variables influencing ACV's extraction effectiveness. At λmax = 495 nm, the minuscule organic droplets were detected. The linearity was present from 0.1 to 3.0 μg/mL under ideal circumstances, with a linear correlation coefficient of 0.9995. The detection limit was 0.03 μg/mL and quantification limit was 0.1 μg/mL. 22.50 was the enrichment factor. Relative standard deviation (RSD%) as accuracy at 2.0 μg/mL of ACV was 1.0%, with good recovery (99.30%). The developed UA-DLLME method was effectively used to determine the ACV in dosage forms, and the validation was evaluated. Results from the suggested technique for dosage forms and pure ACV were in excellent agreement with the results from the official method.

Authors: Hagos Mulu , Singh Chandravanshi Bhagwan , Redi-Abshiro Mesfin , Ele Yaya Estifanos
Published: August 2023

ABSTRACT. Pumpkins are increasingly regarded as functional foods since they contain valuable nutrients and bioactive substances that have positive health effects. The number of bioactive components depends on the origins and parts of the pumpkin, which define its antioxidant capacity. This study evaluated the total phenolic, total flavonoid, and ascorbic acid content and antioxidant activities of three parts of pumpkin from four different sample origins and investigated the correlation between them. The content of bioactive components in pumpkin from Dukem, Ethiopia, was highest in the flesh, peel, and seeds compared to the other sample areas. The Pearson correlation result indicated a strong relationship between the total phenolic, flavonoid, and ascorbic acid contents of pumpkin and their respective antioxidant activities. This study found that the total phenolic, total flavonoid, and ascorbic acid contents and antioxidant activity varied across the pumpkin sample sources and pumpkin parts.

Interculturalite et Innovation Theologique dans la Bible
Authors: Ngole François Batuafe
Published: August 2023

The founding texts of the biblical religion were gradually developed at the crossroads of various cultures, including Jewish, Egyptian, Mesopotamian, Persian, Hellenistic, Roman, etc. In this investigation, it is necessary to understand, starting from myths and sapiential literature, how the binomial ‘interculturality – theological innovation’ structures biblical theological discourse. The heuristic postulate states that Monotheism and Christology are the two keys to a biblical rereading of cultural traditions.
Religious Attitudes in the Middle Ages
Authors: Sarbah Cosmas Ebo
Published: August 2023

A casual glance at the Middle Ages reveals a period of varying religious encounters and attitudes that provide fundamental models that continue to shape and drive Christian-Muslim relations today. The Middle Ages mark the period in the history of the world where Christianity and Islam first encountered each other. The exclusivist crusaders of Western Europe arrived in Palestine and the Middle East in a multi-religious context, which permitted Jews, Christians, and Muslims to co-exist peacefully. The paper, finally, argues that the religious encounters and attitudes of the Middle Ages offer a socio-religious platform with enormous lessons for Christian-Muslim relations of the religiously pluralistic and increasingly secularized sub-Saharan Africa in the twenty-first century world.
‘Uncleanliness’ of Menstruation: An African Feminist Reading of Lev. 15:19-24
Authors: Opoku-Agyemang Emem
Published: August 2023

In Ghana, as in many other countries in Africa, the natural phenomenon of menstruation is considered taboo. People cannot speak freely about it but resort to the use of euphemisms, which made it difficult if not impossible to sensitize the public on the health effects of using unsanitary products like rags and used cloths as pads. This attitude is not only contemporary but can also be found in the Bible. It is against this backdrop that the article investigates the perceived ‘uncleanness’ of menstruation through a literary analysis of Lev. 15:19-24. To engage the text and Ghanaian reality, the paper employs the Communicative approach to African Biblical Hermeneutics from a feminist perspective. Major findings are that both Jewish and Ghanaian cultures regard menstruation as a time that restricts women’s movement in cult, society, and the home. The article advocates for a change of perspective knowing that what God has created cannot render the physical sacred space impure. The focus of the church should be on the ‘new’ sacred space, which is the human body (1 Cor. 6:19). Therefore, caring for the body implies personal hygiene but entails creating an inclusive environment, free from any form of discrimination perpetuated by cultural traditions that are not only anachronistic but harmful and against the Gospel’s message.

Published: August 2023

This cross-sectional and case control study evaluated the effects of malaria parasites on selected haematological parameters of children living in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. A total of 352 participants were randomly recruited and their blood samples collected. Malaria diagnosis and estimation of haematological parameters were determined using standard parasitological and haematological methods respectively. Sociodemographics of participants showed that 109 (31%) of female children and 106 (30%) of male children were infected with malaria parasites. Overall prevalence of Plasmodium falciparum found was 215(61%). The study found a statistically significant difference in the mean values of packed cell volume (PCV), haemoglobin concentration (Hb), and white blood cell count (WBC) of Plasmodium parasitized children compared with their matched controls: PCV(34.83±2.76% versus 36.06±1.41%; P=0.001); Hb(11.58±0.92g/dL versus 11.98±0.46g/dL; P=0.001); WBC (8.96±4.56(x109/L) versus 7.33±1.39(x109/L); P=0.001).While the mean values of lymphocyte counts were relatively reduced in malaria infected children than their control participants (41.66±13.57(x109/L) versus 42.95±8.36(x109/L); P=0.27). A weak relationship was found to exist between density of parasitaemia and ages of children infected with malaria parasites (R2=0.0093; P=0.1584). Though more children had low parasitaemia (1-999 parasites/μL), followed with high parasitaemia (>10,000 parasites/μL), while few had moderate parasitaemia (1000-9999 parasites/μL). There was no case of complication with respect to WHO standard which described complicated or severe anaemia in malaria as haemoglobin (Hb) of < 5g/dl or packed cell volume (PCV) of < 15% with parasitemia of > 250,000 parasites/μL. Malaria parasites affect outcomes of some haematological parameters. We recommend that all febrile children in our study area should be tested for malaria parasites in conjunction with estimation of their full blood count for effective malaria diagnosis and treatment particularly in sub patent cases.
Constitutional identity and equality: the challenge of the Nordic EU member states1
Authors: Krunke Helle
Published: August 2023

This article focuses on constitutional identity in the Nordic EU member states and the tension between constitutional identity and political constitutionalism, as well as how different conceptions of the separation of powers between political branches and the judicial branch could potentially lead to indirect inequality between EU member states because of fundamental differences in their constitutional systems. The article will particularly delineate how differences in the role of the courts in national constitutional settings and differences in those legal systems could potentially impact the equality of EU member states indirectly in relation to key provisions of the Treaty of the European Union, such as Article 4, Part 2, and Article 6, Part 3.
“Quodam frater hungarus ordinis minorum de observantia”. Osualdus de Lasko’s Identity as a Preacher and Author of Sermons
Authors: Cotoi Paula
Published: August 2023

Osualdus de Lasko (OFM Obs, ca. 1450–1511) composed two sermon collections, which were published in print at the end of the fifteenth and the beginning of the sixteenth centuries. However, the readers of his books did not know the name of the author, who was only introduced as “quodam frater hungarus ordinis minorum de observantia”. This paper considers this option for anonymity as a premise for further investigating Osualdus’ identity as an author of sermons and as a preacher, intending to answer questions such as: How is Osualdus presenting or representing himself as an author/preacher? For what reasons and purpose did he compile these sermon collections? How were his homiletic works related to real preaching? Which was his ideal of a preacher? How relevant are the Franciscan affiliation and Hungarian origins for his identity? Grounded on the idea that the author is embedded in his text, this essay explores the prologues of Osualdus’ works and three of his sermons that discuss precisely about preaching’s agents, role, and beneficiaries. The analysis emphasizes that Osvalus’ vision of the ideal preacher and self-representation as author of sermons is shaped by Franciscan concepts of humility, renunciation and imitatio Christi.

Anonymity is also presented as a possible sign of humbleness, in the spirit of Franciscan values. Similarly, his understanding of the goal of spreading the Word of God follows the mission of the Friars Minor in general, and their actions in Hungary in particular: fighting heterodox beliefs, converting heretics and schismatic, defending and strengthening faith at the margins of Christendom. Osualdus’ concern for the catechization of simple people might have also been a consequence of the local experience of Franciscans and their contact with the peasantry in their rural convents. The paper concludes that in Osualdus’ case anonymity is not intended to hide or disguise his identity, which is clearly defined around the two elements used as a signature: the Hungarian origins and the Franciscan affiliation. His authority as a preacher and author of sermons resided in his special commission as a member of the Order of Friars Minor and his messages were mainly intended for the local public and for the safeguard of his homeland. The name of the author/preacher was most probably known to his primary audience. Only for the distant readers of his texts the author became anonymous, but they were made aware of the essential components of its identity, representative for the content as well.
Potop szwedzki w listach Johana Ekeblada
Authors: Krawczuk Wojciech
Published: August 2023

Courtier, cavalry captain and diplomat Johan Ekeblad (1629–1697) was considered one of the most outstanding Swedish epistolographers of the 17th century. The main aim of the article is to discuss the significance of his rich correspondence and to present some examples of it translated from Swedish into Polish. Ekeblad’s letters are considered by Swedish historians and literary scholars to be a very important source for studies on the modern mentality of the Swedish nobility.

A small part of the correspondence concerns Ekeblad’ participation in the activities of the Swedish army on the territory of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in 1656. At that time it was already clear that the Commonwealth would not be easily invaded. The letters present a picture of the Swedish army, everyday life, fears and expectations from the perspective of a well-connected officer. The article contains an analysis of the threads taken up in these statements.
Spirala i amplituda. Dialektyka sztuki
Authors: Woźniak Cezary
Published: August 2023

The article presents a certain dialectic of art, the dialectic developed on the basis of such concepts as essence, potentiality, completeness, sense and phenomenon. The completeness of art is hereby understood as the maximum actualisation of its potential, the pretence of art would be therefore something, in which the potentiality of art isn’t elaborated on. What would be the sense of art then? It would be the process of certain actualisation of art potentiality. The history of art then presents itself as the amplitude whose extents are drawn by the level of the actualisation of that potentiality; from the pretence of art to the appearance of immanence, the epiphanic experience of the omni- -completeness. This might have been the most maximalist vision of art, which can be found, for example, in Schiller, Schelling, Heidegger or Chögyam Trungpa.

We can also imagine a different variant of dialectic of art, in which its story would have unfolded in form of a spiral. The history of art would then have been driven by the need for the realisation of its telos. It would have been the achievement of complete sense of art inherent to its concept, which may be derived from Hegel’s aesthetics.

Can this spiral and this amplitude be intersecting? And if so, how could this affect understanding of art? It seems that the dialectic form of spiral provides art with the terminological integrity, the possibility of its nominal creation, whereas the form of amplitude reinforces art as the epiphany of omni-completeness. Finally, the art would be the form of energy flow on the certain horizon, horizon of art; the form of flow into its condensation points of completeness; and the moments of transparency of this eternal flow…
Na przełomie epok. Historia Zakładu Historii Oświaty i Kultury w latach 1970–1997
Authors: Stopka Krzysztof
Published: August 2023

The Department of the History of Education and Culture at the Institute of History at the Jagiellonian University (Krakow) was established on February 1, 1971 in place of the Chair of the History of Science and Education. Since its beginning, it was located in the Kołłątaj Collegium at St. Anna St. 6, at first in the left wing of the building, and then – since 1980 – in its right wing. The heads of the Department in the years 1971–1997 were the professors: Jan Hulewicz, Kamilla Mrozowska and Renata Dutkowa. The Department also employed the scientific staff: Leszek Hajdukiewicz (head of the Archives of the Jagiellonian University), Julian Dybiec, Kazimierz Szczurek, Andrzej Kazimierz Banach, Krzysztof Stopka. The librarians of the Department were: Elżbieta Babuchowska, Joanna Plutecka and Krzysztof Stopka. In 1984, the librarian’s position was eliminated, and the department’s library was from that point onwards taken care of by the younger academics. Scientific research focused on the history of the Polish education: cathedral schools in the Middle Ages, secondary education in Krakow in the nineteenth century and the University of Krakow from the fifteenth to the twentieth century. Research was also undertaken on the Commission of National Education; the Polish Academy of Arts and Sciences; scientific and educational patronage in Galicia during the autonomous era; Galicia as a part of the Austrian school system as well as scientific and intellectual relations between Poland and other European countries; city culture (Stary Sącz, Nowy Sącz and Zakopane); historical biography was practiced as well. The teaching staff of the Department were mainly present at the Institute of History and the Institute of Pedagogy, but they were also involved in other fields of study at the Faculty of Philosophy and History (later Faculty of History) as well as at other faculties and inter-faculty units of the university. Occasionally they also took up employment at other higher education institutions. They additionally participated in the work of committees and commissions of the Polish Academy of Sciences (and later on those of the Polish Academy of Arts and Sciences) as well as in editorial boards for dictionaries and bibliographies.

In the years 1997–2021, the Department of the History of Education and Culture of the Jagiellonian University was headed by the professors Julian Dybiec, Andrzej Banach and Krzysztof Stopka. Despite the fact that it was structurally part of the Institute of History of the Jagiellonian University, its employees also held classes in other university faculties, including the Institute of Pedagogy, Department of Computational Linguistics at the Faculty of Management and Social Communication of the Jagiellonian University, and were in charge of the Faculty of History, Archives of the Jagiellonian University and the Museum of the Jagiellonian University. The scientific research of the team oscillated around the history of the Jagiellonian University; science, education and culture from the Middle Ages to the present day; the history of Krakow, Galicia and Poland; but also the intellectual ties of Poland with the Anglo-Saxon countries; the history of Jews and of the Roman and Greek Catholic Church; history didactics – especially in the history of the Armenians. Apart from the department heads, full-time employees in the discussed period included: Grzegorz Chomicki, Tomasz Pudłocki, Krystyna Samsonowska, Maria Stinia, and Wiktor Szymborski.

Kolejna książka o. Dariusza Wiśniewskiego, czyli kilka uwag na temat publikacji Franciszkanie i islam w XIII wieku, Poznań 2020, ss. 243
Authors: Mruk Wojciech
Published: August 2023

Fr. Dariusz Wiśniewski devoted his next book to the complicated and still relevant problem of the inter-religious relations between Latin Christians and Muslims. This time he has focused on the activity of St. Francis and the Order of Friars Minor during the 13th century. In those days, the Latin Christians were involved in the Crusades, missions and diplomatic affairs in Iberia, North Africa and the Holy Land. St. Francis and the Franciscans were among the loyal supporters of the papacy. At some point they had created their own policy towards Muslims as well. The author of the book brought the opinion that St. Francis and his disciples were fanatic pacifists in question. He proved that both the authorities and the members of the Order accepted the Crusades and missions as a different, but still acceptable way leading to the conversion of Muslims as the idea of preaching the Gospel of Christ to all the people in the world was one of the most important tasks of the Order. One may criticise some of the author’s decisions regarding the structure of the book and question some of his opinions that were not proved sufficiently. Fr. Dariusz Wiśniewski’s book is nevertheless both interesting and inspiring as it proves that there are several serious problems to be discussed and solved regarding this particular topic.

Das Drama im Politischen: Hegels Ästhetik als demokratietheoretischer Traktat
Authors: Hunter Leonie
Published: August 2023

Dass die politische Ordnung der Moderne tragisch verfasst sei, ist eine Diagnose, die sich wie ein roter Faden durch die Ideengeschichte der politischen Philosophie zieht. Sie wurde aber kaum je mit dem anderen dramatischen Gattungsmodell der Poetik kontrastiert: der Komödie. Auf Grundlage einer demokratietheoretischen Lektüre der Ästhetik Hegels, der die Komödie als höchste Form des Dramas ausweist, erschließt das Buch von Leonie Hunter das Verhältnis poetischer Ordnungsbildung zur demokratischen Moderne auf überraschende Weise neu. Hegels Differenzierung zwischen Tragödie und Komödie bedeutet, dass auch auf demokratietheoretischer Ebene zwischen zwei Modellen unterschieden werden muss: der tragischen Handlungsordnung der politischen Gegenwart und der komischen Zukunft einer selbstreflexiven Demokratie. Ein Blick auf die Poetik Hegels zeigt eine strukturelle Parallele zwischen seiner Gattungslehre und der radikaldemokratischen Bestimmung politischer Differenz. Politische Transformationsprozesse beruhen ebenso auf Momenten der Störung, der Subversion und daran anschließenden Prozessen der Neuformierung wie die poetischen Gattungen: Von Epos und Lyrik bis zum Drama, in Tragödie und Komödie aufgegliedert, lassen sie sich als unterschiedliche Modelle der Unordnung subjektiver Freiheit (als dem Politischen) und den Normen, Formen und Gesetzen der objektiv geltenden Ordnung (als der Politik) verstehen. Leonie Hunter zeigt, wie bei Hegel Gattungsformen und Vollzüge politischer Differenz Hand in Hand gehen. Dadurch eröffnen sich neue Perspektiven sowohl für die politische als auch für die ästhetische Theorie.

The fetal environment and circulatory patterns are very different from that of extrauterine life. The fetus evolved to thrive and grow in a relative hypoxemic environment adapted several mechanisms in response to changes in oxygen concentration in the blood to ensure optimal oxygen delivery to the brain and heart. However according to estimates of the World Health Organization in the world from 4 to 9 million newborns are born annually in a state of perinatal asphyxia. In economically underdeveloped countries, this indicator is higher than in developed countries, but in general, the frequency of perinatal asphyxia remains at a rather high level in the modern world. Perinatal asphyxia or hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, in newborns can cause multiple organ dysfunction in the neonatal period, severe diseases in the future, lead to disability and infant mortality. Perinatal asphyxia is characterized by a violation of gas exchange, which can lead to varying degrees of hypoxia, hypercapnia and acidosis, depending on the duration and degree of interruption of air flow, however, obstructed perinatal gas exchange does not have precise biochemical criteria. In addition, the exact mechanisms of pathophysiology of perinatal asphyxia have not been fully studied, as a result of which the “gold standard” of treatment remains an active area of research. The publication reflects modern views on the main stages of the pathogenesis of perinatal asphyxia, shows changes in blood circulation during delivery and the neonatal period, presents current data on emerging disorders in the newborn’s body against the background of hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy.

Parenting is one of the factors that are closely related to the growth and development of children, including several things, namely food, which is a source of nutrition, vaccination, exclusive breastfeeding, treatment when sick, and environmental cleanliness and clothing. This study aimed to determine the effect of maternal care patterns for stunting in children aged 0-23 months in the Gorontalo District. This type of descriptive-analytical research has a population of 1614 mothers under two and a sample of 188 mothers under two. The research results obtained were the effect of parenting style on the Incidence of stunting in children aged 0-23 months (p value=0.022) parenting health and sanitation parenting patterns on the Incidence of stunting in children aged 0-23 months (p-value = 0.000). The most influential factor is the factor of healthy parenting (p-value = 0.001). The conclusion from this study is that there is an influence of the mother’s parenting style on the Incidence of stunting in children aged 0-23 months in Gorontalo Regency, with the most dominant influencing factor, namely health parenting factors. Future researchers are expected to be able to conduct further research on stunting outside of other variables besides maternal parenting.

This study used a mixed method with a sequential explanatory design. Quantitative data analysis used simple regression analysis and multiple regression, while qualitative data analysis used Spradley analysis. The population in this study consisted of 70 employees of SDIT Qurrota A'yun and 17 MI Tahfizh Entrepreneur Qurrota Ayun, and 57 respondents were taken as the research sample. Data collection was carried out using instruments consisting of variables X1 (20 statements of organizational culture), X2 (leadership) (20 statements), X3 (work motivation) (22 statements), and Y (employee performance) (22 statements). The instruments used were Likert scales, while qualitative data analysis used descriptive analytic techniques and data collection through interviews, observation, and documentation. The key informants in this study began with the structural team of the institution, both at SDIT Qurrota A'yun and at MI Tahfizh Entrepreneur Qurrota A'yun. Data analysis using Spradley goes through three stages: domain analysis, taxonomic analysis, component analysis, and cultural theme analysis. The results of this study are seen from a qualitative and quantitative point of view. Quantitative and partial, organizational culture, the chairman's leadership, and organizational culture significantly affect employee performance. While qualitatively, organizational culture influences employee performance, organizational culture, the chairman's leadership, and work motivation simultaneously affect employee performance. Organizational culture makes a dominant positive contribution to employee performance compared to the leadership factor of the chairman and work motivation.

This type of research is quantitative research. The data consists of road length, the amount of electricity sold as infrastructure variables and economic growth. This study uses multiple regression to analyze the impact of infrastructure indicators (consisting of road length and amount of electricity sold) on economic growth. The findings revealed that, while the amount of electricity sold had a significant impact on economic growth, the length of the road had a partial insignificant impact with a regression coefficient value of 0.632 and a significant level of 0.333 > 0.05 and the length of the road did not, with a regression coefficient value of 2.012 and a significant level of 0.020 > 0.05. Simultaneously, the variable length of the road and the amount of electricity sold affect economic growth with a significant level of 0.011< 0.05. The contribution of variable road length and the amount of electricity sold is 77.60% to economic growth while the remaining 22.40% is influenced by other factors not examined in this study. This research is expected to contribute to the government, especially in the field of Urban and Regional Planning. The result of this study is that electricity infrastructure indicators have a significant effect on economic growth indicators.

La diabetes mellitus (DM) es una enfermedad heterogénea que presenta fenotipos clínicos diversos, todos con hiperglucemia. Históricamente se han utilizado cuatro factores para identificar esta diversidad: la edad de inicio, la gravedad de la enfermedad o grado de pérdida de la función de la célula beta, el grado de resistencia a la insulina y la presencia de autoanticuerpos asociados a la enfermedad.

Actualmente, los parámetros empleados para clasificar los diferentes tipos de DM dificultan el diagnóstico y tratamiento de los pacientes. Las distintas presentaciones clínicas requieren una clasificación diagnóstica más eficaz para un abordaje terapéutico más preciso, valiéndose del avance de la inmunogenética y la bioquímica clínica.

Esta guía está orientada a clasificar con precisión las presentaciones clínicas que a menudo generan incertidumbre dentro de los dos tipos principales de DM.

La diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DM2) es un factor de riesgo cardiovascular (FRCV) mayor. La DM confiere dos a cuatro vecesmás riesgo cardiovascular (RCV). El riesgo es aún más elevadoen el paciente con DM2 que ha sufrido un infarto agudo demiocardio (IAM) o un accidente cerebrovascular (ACV). La dislipidemia de la DM2 consiste en triglicéridos elevados de ayuno, con mayor excursión posprandial, bajos niveles de HDLc,y alteraciones cuantitativas y cualitativas de LDLc y HDLc. El control glucémico apropiado en DM2 mejora en gran medida las alteraciones lipoproteicas. La terapia hipolipemiante es clave para reducir el RCV en la DM2. La reducción del RCV que se consigue con estatinas se basa en la reducción del LDLc y sus efectos pleiotrópicos. En pacientes que persisten con el perfil lipídico alterado, a pesar de dosis altas de estatinas, se debe considerar el agregado de otros agentes hipolipemiantes para reducir las lipoproteínas aterogénicas.
