Published: May 2024

La situación de la comprensión lectora en los estudiantes peruanos es alarmante según diversos estudios nacionales e internacionales. La problemática se agrava si pensamos en los futuros profesores que necesitan adquirir las herramientas necesarias para superar sus posibles carencias lectoras. El objetivo central de este estudio fue describir el proceso de enseñanza- aprendizaje de estrategias de comprensión lectora en estudiantes de primer ciclo de la carrera Educación de tres universidades privadas de Lima. Para ello, se empleó un enfoque cualitativo, pues se analizaron las percepciones de 210 alumnos acerca de su desempeño lector y las estrategias lectoras que más suelen utilizar. Para ello, se aplicó un cuestionario de opinión. Asimismo, se buscó indagar las metodologías que emplean algunos docentes de cursos de formación general de primer ciclo para favorecer la comprensión lectora en sus estudiantes. Para tal efecto, se utilizó una guía de entrevista semi-estructurada. Entre los resultados, destacan las limitaciones que los estudiantes sintieron acerca de sus habilidades lectoras, especialmente cuando se enfrentan a textos argumentativos y expositivos. Igualmente, percibieron dificultades léxicas al no comprender determinadas palabras empleadas en los textos, lo cual resulta limitante en la medida en que no suelen utilizar estrategias correctivas que permitan superar tales problemas. Por su parte, los docentes entrevistados, si bien manifestaron la necesidad de otorgar una mayor importancia a desarrollar habilidades lectoras en los estudiantes, adujeron que no les es posible constatar que sus alumnos lograron comprender los textos que leen, debido a la falta de tiempo del cual disponen.

La leyenda de Teófilo como otras tantas historias milagrosas aparece en Oriente, sin embargo las  relaciones que se establecen entre Bizancio y el Occidente latino durante el período carolingio hace  que esta narración llegue a la corte carolingia. Si bien allí se gesta el corpus de versiones es a partir del siglo XII que alcanza una importante difusión. En el llamado siglo mariano donde abundan los relatos de milagros de la Virgen esta leyenda de rasgos distintivos tan sugerentes  como el pacto con el Diablo desencadena una numerosa producción literaria así como una abundante plasmación icónica. Nuestra propuesta  se focalizará en el desarrollo discursivo imago-textual  de la leyenda, especialmente en el proceso de falta, remordimiento y posterior arrepentimiento del protagonista y en la elección de un momento puntual del relato,  para relevar los recursos utilizados para manifestar los conceptos fundantes del cristianismo como son el pecado y la redención.

Authors: Silva Mineli Kátia Cristina , Loureiro Lourenço Rosenery
Published: May 2024

As compras sustentáveis no setor público podem beneficiar econômica e social e ambientalmente as instituições e regiões que adotam esses critérios de contratação de serviços e bens.  Em face disso há uma ampla revisão da literatura estabelecida em torno de compreender a observância de inserções de políticas públicas e outras regulações no Brasil nas dimensões de sustentabilidade, bem como o comportamento das organizações brasileiras. A partir dos achados em artigos de revisão sobre Compras Públicas Sustentáveis (CPS), o presente artigo buscou compreender os critérios de sustentabilidade discutidos em artigos de revisão sobre CPS e a pertinência das universidades públicas brasileiras nessa discussão. A metodologia empreendida foi a Revisão Sistêmica Integrativa com as 6 etapas propostas por Botelho, Cunha e Macedo (2011). Foram analisados 15 artigos de revisão e os resultados mostram os principais temas discutidos em torno das CPS e os critérios que carecem aprofundamento para que as contratações de bens e serviços contribuam de fato para o desenvolvimento sustentável conforme prescrevem as Leis brasileiras que orientam essas questões.

Published: May 2024

Imidazole is a five-membered, planar heterocyclic ring made up of 3C, 2N, and N in the 1st and 3rd places. Purine, histamine, histidine, and nucleic acid are only a few significant natural compounds that contain the imidazole ring. It is utilised as a cure to optimize the solubility and bioavailability properties of proposed weakly soluble lead compounds since it is an aromatic chemical that is polar and ionizable and so improves the pharmacokinetic features of lead molecules. Derivatives of imidazole have a special place in medicinal chemistry. An essential synthesis technique in the process of discovering new drugs is the integration of the imidazole nucleus. Due to the remarkable therapeutic efficacy of medications related to imidazole, medicinal chemists have been inspired to create numerous innovative chemotherapy agents. This review summarized the work that has been done in recent years about different synthetic approaches of imidazole derivatives and their potential activity as anti-HIV, anticancer, anticovid, antifungal, antidiabetic, antidepressant, antioxidant, and antituberculosis.

Authors: Adi Nugrahanti Maria Cyrilla Iglesia , Yosef Wijoyo  , Yustina Sri Hartini  , Nunung Priyatni
Published: May 2024

Traditional medicine has long been used by the people of Yogyakarta, Indonesia as an alternative treatment to modern medicine. Various factors influence traditional medicine use, including psychological factors such as attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control. This research aims to determine the factors that influence the use of traditional medicine among the people of Yogyakarta Indonesia using the theory of planned behavior (TPB). This research was conducted using an analytical observational research design with a cross-sectional design. Data was collected from 110 respondents living in Yogyakarta who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The research instrument is a questionnaire that refers to the TPB construct which has been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis was carried out using logistic regression statistical tests and Pearson correlation tests. The results of the analysis show that attitudinal factors and perceived behavioral control partially contribute to the intention to use traditional medicine, while the subjective norm construct does not contribute. Attitudes and perceived behavioral control are important factors that influence the intention to use traditional medicine among Indonesian people. This suggests that interventions that focus on increasing positive attitudes and perceived behavioral control can increase the use of traditional medicine.

ALA LAMPUNG RASA PALEMBANG: STRATEGI PEMASARAN “PEMPEK TARISA” HALAL
Authors: Haque Marissa Grace
Published: May 2024

Pempek is very synonymous with Palembang, it is said that it was first sold by Chinese traders in 1916 in Palembang. However, with the large diaspora of Palembang people nationally and internationally, Lampung is now also producing Pempek with flavors that are very competitive with the original producing city in Palembang. The research uses a mixed-method, with descriptive analysis to determine the existence of the company's survival ability "Pempek Tarisa Lampung." A special business strategy is needed in this halal-certified industry. Using the SWOT analysis measuring tool, internal-external weighting, the Four Step Strategy, determines the most appropriate strategy, in order to be able to overcome challenges by taking advantage of all possible opportunities. The results show several weaknesses that must be immediately corrected in order to optimize revenue potential, in the form of more extensive digital marketing, innovation in product variants, including embracing more public figures as catalysts to leverage. "PTL" will be more powerful in expanding marketing reach and increasing engagement with its customers. Apart from that, innovation in product variants is also needed to maintain the attractiveness and relevance of the business, so that it is able to continue to attract old customers, as well as attract the interest of new consumers. The cost leadership strategy, which had been successful previously, was maintained. In particular, by combining digital marketing strategies, product innovation, embracing more public figures, and cost leadership strategies, halal SMEs "PTL" can continue to develop and succeed in the halal SME culinary market which is now increasingly competitive. MSMEs (halal) are indeed an industry that saves the nation's economy, 10.79 million people (7.71 percent) of the Indonesian population work in providing accommodation and food and drink (BPS, 2023). So knowing the survival ability of industry players on a micro scale is very important to think about for sustainability.

Conclusion:  Majority of cases were in the 3rd decade of life, males outnumbered females. Poisoning and road traffic accidents were the leading cause of death. Public attention, awareness, preventive and remedial strategies should be undertaken to reduce similar incidents.
'Then We Build a System to Deal with It': Waste and the Technological Sublime in Don DeLillo’s "Underworld"
Authors: Sarfin Jonathan
Published: May 2024

Over twenty-five years after the publication of Don DeLillo’s magnum opus Underworld (1997), which depicts the shift from a naïve belief in technological progress at the beginning of the Cold War to disillusionment as it ended, the novel is more topical than ever, faced as we are with the growing recognition of the failure of both technorationality and capitalism to address humanity’s depredation and despoilment of the biosphere. This article argues that Underworld deploys David Nye’s notion of the technological sublime to depict the attempt to master recalcitrant nature, only to ironically reveal the impossibility of the endeavor. Underworld’s use of waste as a catalyst for the sublime is interesting precisely because waste connotes something valueless, whereas the sublime is occasioned by ‘great’, ostensibly valuable, things. Seen within its own logic, the technological sublime is a project of liberation, a vision of impending omniscience, a permanent deferral of human limitation. Yet when waste becomes sublime, the progression toward mastery does not proceed smoothly. Although the technological sublime “undermines all notions of limitation, instead presupposing the ability to continually innovate and to transform the world” (Nye 60), Underworld’s aestheticization represents it at its limit, when it can no longer regulate the abject threat of waste. Ultimately, I argue that DeLillo asks readers to grapple with abjection by dramatizing the failure of the technological sublime as an aesthetic strategy, which inadvertently reinscribes the boundaries that it seeks to override: the finitude of the embodied human, our relative powerlessness amongst the world within which we are enmeshed.
Permeabilidades rizomáticas en la nueva poesía de la Partición india
Authors: Oliva Juan Ignacio
Published: May 2024

Este artículo intentará leer la memoria de la Partición india de 1947 desde las nuevas materialidades ecológicas, que estudian de manera inclusiva e interrelacionada la realidad biológica de la corporalidad de los territorios y los individuos que los pueblan, por un lado; y que son conscientes de la cinética entrópica de los cuerpos en tensión y de la permeabilidad holística y rizomática de tales cuerpos, por el otro. Para este propósito se utilizará una breve selección de poemas de entre el amplísimo corpus generado por este hito, de autoras tales como Prerna Bakshi, Sujata Bhatt, Adeeba Talukder, y Moniza Alvi. No pretende ser exhaustivo, porque sería imposible dar una visión global de la amplia cantidad de hechos traumáticos, ecos, espejismos, revisiones y relecturas que ha conllevado la Partición –una gran cicatriz que se abre y supura con facilidad—, sobre todo cuando están tan cerca los eventos, talleres y conmemoraciones de los setenta y setenta y cinco aniversarios, respectivamente. Entre los principales puntos de interés destacaremos, en primer lugar, la construcción de imágenes paisajísticas mediatizadas por la fractura; a continuación, la problematización de los diferentes exilios ideológicos provocados por la Partición; o, finalmente, la integración material de las realidades culturales e identitarias, vistas como hechos físicos y tangibles, susceptibles de desarrollo y transformación.
Living and Dying as Compost in the Torne Valley Mires
Authors: Kokkola Lydia
Published: May 2024

This article takes Donna Haraway’s claim that “We are compost” as a literal statement. Combining Human-Plant Studies (HPS) with the study of children’s literature, the article examines a novel set in the European Arctic as starting point for imagining what it means to live as compost. In the novel, Som om jag inte fanns [As though I wasn’t there] by Kerstin Johansson i Backe, a grieving girl, Elina, seeks out her father’s spirit in a sphagnum bog. The article draws parallels between Elina’s actions and storying activities in the mire and human-moss relationships. These relationships are reflected against indigenous ways of understanding the meshing of the worlds of the living and dead, as well as the meshing of humans with other living organisms. In doing so, it opens up a richer understand of human-plant relations, but also points out the risks of becoming one with the world

Inhibition of Quorum Sensing to Mitigate the Risks of Membrane Biofouling in Biological Wastewater Treatment
Authors: Kakkar Priyanka , Wadhwa Neeraj
Published: May 2024

Membrane-based systems play a pivotal role in various applications, providing efficient separation, purification, and filtration processes across diverse industries such as water purification and desalination. However, this system faces major challenge of membrane biofouling impacting the efficiency and sustainability of such systems. Biofouling occurs when various microorganisms like bacteria, fungi, etc. adheres to the surface of membrane and form biofilm which results in reducing membrane permeability and increasing its operational cost. Various physical, chemical and biological strategies are known to prevent biofouling. Inhibition of quorum sensing is a recent trend based on the researches that shows quorum sensing as an integral part of biofilm formation. Bacteria’s uses cell to cell communication mechanisms known as Quorum sensing, plays an important role in formation of virulence factors, biofilm. It is regulated by quorum sensing signalling molecules known as autoinducers like Autoinducing peptides, acyl homoserine lactones, Autoinducer-2. Various strategies can be adopted to inhibit quorum sensing: inhibition of Autoinducer synthase which is responsible for synthesizing autoinducers; inhibition/degradation of autoinducers and interfering with signal receptors. This article provides deeper knowledge of Quorum sensing (QS), methods of QS inhibition: Quorum quenching which involves the enzymatic degradation of QS signaling molecules, and the use of Quorum sensing inhibitor compounds in preventing membrane biofouling are discussed in detail. This article delves into the potential of disrupting quorum sensing pathways to prevent or reduce biofilm formation, thereby enhancing the performance and longevity of membranes in wastewater treatment. The mitigation of biofouling can revolutionize membrane-based systems, ensuring their sustainability and efficacy in water treatment processes
Understanding X-ray-induced isomerisation in photoswitchable surfactant assemblies
Authors: Jones Beatrice E , Blayo Camille , Greenfield Jake L , Fuchter Matthew J , Cowieson Nathan , Evans Rachel C
Published: May 2024

Dynamic, responsive materials can be built using photosurfactants (PS) that self-assemble into ordered nanostructures, such as micelles or liquid crystals. These PS contain photoswitchable groups, such as azobenzene (Azo) or, more recently, arylazopyrazoles (AAPs), which change shape and polarity on photoisomerisation between the E and Z states, thus changing the self-assembled structure. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is a powerful technique to probe the morphology of PS and can be used to measure the mechanisms of structural changes using in-situ light irradiation with rapid, time-resolved data collection. However, X-ray irradiation has been shown previously to induce Z-to-E isomerisation of Azo-PS, which can lead to inaccuracies in the measured photostationary state. Here, we investigate the effect of light and X-ray irradiation on micelles formed from two different PS, containing either an Azo or AAP photoswitch using SAXS with in-situ light irradiation. The effect of X-ray irradiation on the Z isomer is shown to depend on the photoswitch, solvent, concentration and morphology. We use this to create guidelines for future X-ray experiments using photoswitchable molecules, which can aid more accurate understanding of these materials for application in solar energy storage, catalysis or controlled drug delivery.
El matrimonio en la tradición oral andina
Authors: Murguía-Sánchez Luis Ernesto
Published: May 2024

El trabajo presenta una aproximación al estudio del matrimonio en el registro oral del Perú altoandino y tiene como propósito elaborar una exégesis de las mediaciones y alcances de la fuente oral: el matrimonio del atoq o zorro con la moza en la sociedad quechua. A continuación, se indagan los términos que dan lugar a los vínculos del registro oral con el escrito, para pasar a identificar luego qué comunican o sugieren, para comprender el mundo que crean y los asola. El método empleado privilegia la aproximación etnográfica e interpretativa para aproximar a los diversos niveles de significación e “interpretar lo interpretado”. Las conclusiones señalan por su parte que la fuente oral es el mayordispositivo de la memoria colectiva, dado que une a las generaciones para hacerlas perdurar a lo largo del tiempo.
Los animales enamorados en la tradición oral andina: el caso de un gusano y una joven
Authors: Huamán Antonio Timna Yulisa
Published: May 2024

Objetivo. Exponer las características de los personajes (animal seductor y doncella engañada), así como el significado simbólico que tanto estos como las situaciones que atraviesan representan en el imaginario del runa, a partir de la serie de relatos orales conocidos como los animales enamorados; lo cual se sustenta en los principios de relacionalidad,específicamente la complementariedad. Metodología. Para ello se realizó el análisis interpretativo de una narraciónrecopilada en la provincia de Dos de Mayo, Huánuco (Perú). Resultados. Las relaciones amorosas entre un humano y un animal fracasan debido a su naturaleza asimétrica, es decir, que este vínculo no compatibiliza con la idea de complementariedad o yanantin (condición primordial para la conformación de parejas en el contexto andino), dado que, alegóricamente, se trataría de un runa con un mana-runa, esto es, la unión de un miembro del ayllu con otro que no comparte ni armoniza con los mismos principios ideológicos y éticos de la comunidad. Conclusión. En este sentido, los relatos sobre animales enamorados reflejan la preocupación por consolidar la unidad social de la comunidad mediante el emparejamiento que rechaza cualquier incursión foránea.
Status of Coopetition in Wine Tourism Research
Authors: Bem Maracajá Kettrin Farias , Chim-Miki Adriana Fumi , da Costa Rui Augusto
Published: May 2024

Coopetition plays a central role in the tourism and wine sector interplay, but there is a literature gap about the state-of-art on wine tourism coopetition. Our research aims to structure the knowledge status on wine tourism coopetition from the core research dimensions and the future trends indicated by the researchers. We answered four questions: What is the current coopetition research in wine tourism? Who are the prominent scholars? How are themes and authors correlated? What are the motivations and trends of the wine tourism coopetition? We conducted a bibliometric study using multiple techniques: Historiography, Correspondence Analysis, Thematic Relevance, and Development Matrix. Additionally, we performed a Content analysis to identify the motivations for Coopetition. Key results showed four cluster themes on this topic: Wine segmentation studies, Tourism experience studies, Studies of sustainability of wine tourism, and new theories to study wine tourism. We synthesized the dimensions and motivations of Coopetition as context, process, and results. Theoretical and practical implications showed Coopetition as a mostly unintentional process in the wine industry related to territorial synergy, interdependence, complementarity, and strategic fit. It is a broad intersectoral interplay that covers many industries. However, wine tourism coopetition should become a planned strategy to improve outcomes.

Abstract This research study aims to comprehend residents’ views towards tourism development in Kashmir Valley, involving the constructs of community attachment and tourist contact. The research instrument, consisting of 31 items and six variables, was developed using a literature review of prior research studies. A mixed-methods survey approach was used to elicit residents’ sentiments towards tourism development in Kashmir Valley. Using SPSS, reliability analysis and exploratory factor analysis were performed on 520 helpful responses. The research findings reveal that the residents are well-versed in the tourism development process. Considering the economic, social, and cultural developments of tourism, findings further indicate that residents of Kashmir Valley have a strong sense of community, and interactions with tourists are seen as crucial to the growth and promotion of the Valley's tourist hotspots. The research study also considers the necessity of involving residents in developing the tourism industry so that they might benefit from the industry. The social implications of this research study are crucial for the growth of tourism. It is recommended that a community-based approach to tourism be used and that residents’ attitudes be considered when developing and promoting tourism.

La acuicultura cuenta con sistemas de monitoreo de calidad del agua tradicionales, que recurren al control de los parámetros fisicoquímicos de forma manual, por esta razón se desarrolló e implementó una plataforma de monitoreo automático en tiempo real, la cual permite el análisis remoto de variables fisicoquímicas en criaderos de tilapias. Este sistema utiliza sensores de temperatura, pH, oxígeno disuelto y turbidez, que están conectados a microcontroladores encargados del procesamiento de datos y la transmisión a través de redes (LPWAN). Estos datos son transmitidos a través de modulación de radiofrecuencia LoRa, y están interconectados con un Gateway, que funciona como un enlace entre el nodo final y la infraestructura de red convencional basada en TCP/IP, para retransmitirla empleando el protocolo MQTT a un Bróker, alojado en  un (VPS), de tal forma que la información se presenta mediante una interfaz de usuario basada en Web, los datos son visualizados en un dashboard, con la opción de acceder a tablas y gráficos de registro históricos de los parámetros monitoreados. Este método permite que criaderos ubicados en zonas rurales lejanas, con un acceso limitado de ancho de banda a internet, puedan contar con un sistema de monitoreo en tiempo real.

Background. Blood and blood products such as packed RBCs, whole blood or other types of blood transfusions are some of the most common daily medical procedures performed all over the world. However, the doctor decisions to transfuse blood are not easy in clinical practice. Method. It was used a descriptive prospective study including 136 children who received blood and blood products transfusions in Al-Diwanyah Maternity and Children Teaching Hospital, Iraq, from 15 January to 15 November 2023. Result. The gender distribution among patients was of 56 males (41.17%) and 80 females (58.82%), all of them exposed to unnecessary blood transfusion. There was no significant difference in gender between high and low level of the hemoglobin groups. Presence of underlying chronic disease was higher in the group with Hb level less than 8 compared to the group with Hb level above 8 (55.65% vs.44.11 %), and the difference was significant (p = 0.042). Provisional diagnosis before transfusion was more effective in lower hemoglobin level subjects than in those with higher hemoglobin level (p = 0.019). About 70 % of these unneeded transfusions were performed due to lack of doctor awareness regarding the indications and the time when the blood and blood products transfusions were necessary. Conclusion and recommendations. All the new strategies of the hospital should be focused on avoiding the harmful effect of any procedure like blood transfusions, weighting their balance of benefits and harms. It is no need to perform a blood transfusion as an initial treatment if the affection can be treated by other means, excepting the life saving emergency situations after trauma or life threating hemorrhage. In some patients who are asymptomatic and/or where specific therapy is available, lower threshold levels may be acceptable. Continuous medical educational and increased doctor’s knowledge might help decrease unnecessary transfusions. Prior to surgery, multidisciplinary teams and discussions about transfusion should be engaged between pediatrician and surgeon. Safe blood and blood products as well as the cost of blood transfusion services should be considered before any decision.
