Background: It is important to establish the pattern of suicidal ideation among adolescents with depression and anxiety. This will help the schools prevent possible complete suicide among these groups of adolescents’ trough counseling and education.Objectives: This work is therefore aimed at determining the effects of depression and anxiety on adolescent suicide ideation and factors that predict suicidal ideation among adolescents attending secondary school in southeast Nigeria.Methods: A cross-sectional study among 450 secondary school adolescents in Enugu state, Nigeria. Information was obtained using the Columbia suicide severity rating scale and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Chi-square test, correlation analysis and Hierarchical logistic regression were used in the analysis, and the level of statistical significance was determined using a P-value of <0.05.Results: The prevalence of anxiety was 36.4% while that of depression was 30.7%. The prevalence of suicidal ideation was 8.4%. The prevalence of suicidal ideation among adolescents who were <15 years was 8.0% while those who were between 15 – 18 years was 13.5% and those more than 19 years of age was 22.5%. The prevalence of suicidal ideation among adolescents with depression is 21.7% and 78.3 % for those without depression while the prevalence of suicidal ideation among adolescents with anxiety is 20.1% and 79.9 % for those without anxiety. The prevalence of suicidal ideation among the poorest half was 16.4% and 10.2% in the richer half. There was a higher prevalence of suicidal ideation among the urban dwellers (53.3%) than the rural dwellers (46.7%).There was a positive correlation between suicide and age in years and this was found to be statistically significant, (n=450, r=0.107, p=0.023). A significantly higher proportion of respondents who had depression, 21.7% had suicidal ideation when compared with those who were not, (χ2=12.170, p<0.001). Similarly, a significantly higher proportion of respondents who had an anxiety disorder, (20.1%) had suicidal ideation when compared with those who were not, 9.4%, (χ2=10.291, p=0.001). The respondents who were 19 years and above had increased suicidal ideation, and the difference in proportions was found to be statistically significant, (χ2=6.440, p=0.040). A significantly higher proportion of females, 16.6% had suicidal intentions when compared with the males, 7.1%, (χ2=7.958, p=0.005).Conclusion: There is an increasing prevalence of suicidal ideation among adolescents with a preponderance of older age and female gender. There is a link between depression/anxiety and suicidal ideation. The prevalence of suicidal ideation among the poorest half was higher than that of the richer half. There was a higher prevalence of suicidal ideation among the urban dwellers than the rural dwellers.

Published: April 2024

Background: Half of older Africans drop out of treatment after a single contact with biomedical mental health services.Objective: This study examined the effect of introducing a mobile phone reminder intervention delivered by volunteering health staff to reduce dropout from an outpatient mental health service for older people in Nigeria.Methods: 405 patients were studied using a quasi-experimental design: 169 who attended clinic pre-intervention (2016-2017) and 236 who attended during intervention (2018-2019). We estimated annual dropout rates, reasons for dropout and predictors of drop-out.Results: We found a trend for decreasing dropout rates during intervention (p<0.001). The most common reasons for dropout were distance to the clinic (19.5%) and unavailability of a caregiver (47.6%). Current single status (O.R =2.02, 95% C. I=1.02-3.99) and treatment without adjunctive pharmacotherapy (O. R=2.14, 95% CI; 1.07-4.26) predicted dropout.Conclusion: Mobile phone call reminders improved treatment engagement in this population. Findings are important for policy to improve access to mental healthcare in Africa.

Published: April 2024

Background: Immunization has averted millions of hospitalizations and deaths from vaccine-preventable diseases. It is a strong public health tool for childhood infection control and prevention. Many mothers are aware of routine immunization but with doubtable knowledge.Objectives: This study determined the mothers/caregivers’ knowledge of routine childhood immunization and vaccination status of their children, aged 12-23 months in Ilorin East Area of Kwara State, Nigeria. It also identified some of the socio-demographic factors associated with good knowledge status of the mothers/caregivers.Methods: This was a community-based cross-sectional study, carried out between December, 2019 and January, 2020, among 456 mothers / caregivers-children’s pairs. Subjects were recruited using multistage cluster sampling technique. Data were collected using a pretested, semi-structured, interviewer-administered questionnaire.Results: Up to 98.0% of the respondents were aware of childhood immunization with healthcare providers (92.1%) being their major source of information. Majority of the respondents (85.3%) had good knowledge of immunization, defined by a score ≤6 out of the 10 questions tested. There was a significant relationship between respondents’ knowledge and full vaccination status of the children (p=0.001). The significant factors associated with good knowledge from binary logistic regression were mothers / caregivers’ age >30 years, antenatal clinic attendance and at least secondary education (OR, p value = 10.60, 0.013; 8.50, <0.001; and 3.98, <0.001 respectively).Conclusion: Mothers / caregivers’ knowledge on immunization was good and this positively affected the full vaccination status of their children. There is a need to sustain female education and encourage antenatal clinic attendance, as tools to improve childhood immunization.

Published: April 2024

Background: Most studies on viral infections among livestock handlers have focused on occupational exposure from inadvertent contact with infected animals. Consequently, little emphasis is given to the effect of their lifestyle on the acquisition of other blood-borne viruses.

Objectives: To determine the prevalence and assess risk factors for HIV, HBV and HCV infections among livestock handlers in Ibadan, Nigeria.

Methods: Blood samples were collected from 265 livestock handlers between October 2016 to April 2017 in Ibadan. The samples were tested for the presence of antibodies to HIV and HCV; and surface antigen to HBV using ELISA. Structured questionnaire was administered to collect information on risk factors associated with the transmission of these viruses. Data analysis was carried out using Chi-square test and logistic regression to determine the association between risk factors and predictors of infection (p < 0.05).

Results: Of 265 participants, 11 (4.2%), 29 (10.9%) and 13 (4.9%) individuals tested positive for HIV, HBV and HCV infections respectively. Two (0.8%) of the participants were coinfected with HIV and HBV while 1(0.4%) was coinfected with both HBV and HCV. Individuals who travelled frequently in the course of Livestock trades had a higher rate of HIV infection.

Conclusions: A high Infection with HIV, HBV and HCV is common among the study participants. There is a need for continued surveillance and awareness creation on preventive measures against these viruses.

Sustainable Finance in Africa: A Comparative Overview
Authors: Gebreysus Abegaz Yimer
Published: April 2024

The international community has introduced many policies and strategies to transform the economy into a green and sustainable economy. As finance is the economy's lifeblood, reform in the financial sector is vital to achieving sustainable development. The financial industry has two main aims in promoting sustainable finance. To protect itself from risks that emanate from the climate crisis and to positively contribute to transforming the economy into a green and sustainable economy. Some African countries have introduced legal and policy frameworks to reorient the financial industry into a more sustainable path. This article examines the experience of five African countries: South Africa, Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and Ethiopia. African banks and financial institutions voluntarily join international initiatives and adapt to international standards. This shows that the industry is open to embracing the inevitable change that determines the future of finance in domestic and international markets. African countries are also taking essential steps with a growing interest in doing more. African countries can benefit from the new trends in the financial market. However, lack of resources, proper policy and legal frameworks, and lack of qualified experts are still challenging the transformation to sustainable finance in Africa. The African Union is thus expected to coordinate the efforts of individual countries to transform the continent's financial sector into a more sustainable path. So far, only a few AU initiatives concerning sustainable finance exist.

The effects of inulin and mannan-oligosaccharide (MOS) on growth, feed utilization, fatty acid profiles, and intestinal morphology of Chamo strain Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fry reared at suboptimal temperature were investigated in this study. Chamo strain Nile tilapia is a local strain in Ethiopia that has been selected for fast growth and disease resistance under tropical conditions. However, its performance under cold stress or sub-optimal temperature is unknown. Four experimental diets were formulated to contain 0% (control), 5 g kg-1 inulin, 6 g kg-1MOS and a combination of 2.5 g kg-1 inulin and 3 g kg-1 MOS. Each diet was fed to triplicate groups of Nile tilapia fry (initial weight 1.6 ± 0.074 g) for nine weeks at a suboptimal temperature of 22.88 ± 0.48 oC. The results showed that prebiotic supplementation did not significantly affect the survival, final weight, weight gain, SGR, FCR and ash content of the fish except for the slight improvements observed with MOS alone and in combination with inulin. However, MOS alone or a combination with inulin improved the villi length and width, and some PUFA levels of the fish compared to the control group. The fish fed with the combination of inulin and MOS had the highest crude lipid content and villi length in the proximal and middle intestine among all groups. The fish fed with MOS alone had the highest villi width and some PUFA levels among all groups. These results suggest additions of these prebiotics have improved the villi length and width, and some PUFA levels of Chamo strain Nile tilapia and could be used as sustainable additive in tilapia nutrition under suboptimal temperature conditions Therefore; further studies are needed to optimize the prebiotic supplementation for Nile tilapia under different conditions.

Published: April 2024

This study deals with the conceptual design of three-dimensional (3D) printer technology for process optimization in industrial production. While initially 3D printers were primarily used for rapid prototyping, advancements in technology have transformed them into a new technology for mass production. Within the scope of this study, firstly, investigations were conducted on how Industry 4.0 technologies (internet of things (IoT), smart factories) are utilized on the production line. The first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, which is used in communication between objects (3D printer, industrial robot arm, conveyor belt, and assembly unit), has been elaborated in detail. The aim of this study is to comprehensively address and convey how Industry 4.0 technologies increase production speed and efficiency in mass production processes through the created conceptual design. In the obtained conceptual design, even though the production line has been kept limited, every stage of the production process has been thoroughly explained and examined from start to finish. Within the scope of the study, sample data of the production stages are presented with the sample software called 3D Production and Automation Software (3D MAS), which was developed using the C# programming language on Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2022 IDE. In the next study, efforts can be directed towards expanding the limited production line presented in this work, introducing other Industry 4.0 technologies, and incorporating them into the conceptual design of the production process.

Authors: Escámez Mañas Francisco José
Published: April 2024

El Concilio Vaticano II fomenta una enorme renovación de la vida de la Iglesia y de sus relaciones con la sociedad, para facilitar la misión evangelizadora. Es la razón de su fuerte impacto en la Iglesia española, como a nivel universal. Pero el Concilio no surge de la nada. El Concilio, junto a auténticas novedades, aprueba, potencia y relanza aspectos en ocasiones ya presentes en la vida eclesial, algunos de ellos también en la Diócesis de Almería. Realmente, el estudio del Concilio resulta decisivo para conocer la historia del siglo XX en nuestra tierra, al tiempo que ilumina la actualidad. De la misma forma, el estudio del preconcilio, enmarca la realización del Concilio, permitiendo comprender mejor sus enseñanzas y disposiciones. El preconcilio facilitó la recepción del Concilio.

Nuevas aportaciones sobre el Hospital de Venerables Sacerdotes de Sevilla
Authors: Chillón Raposo David
Published: April 2024

En 1685 llegó procedente de Palermo a la archidiócesis de Sevilla don Jaime de Palafox y Cardona, permaneciendo en ella como arzobispo de Sevilla hasta el año de su muerte en 1701. Durante su gobierno fueron diversas las devociones personales que calaronprofundamente en la epidermis de Andalucía, destacando entre ellas la del Santísimo Sacramento, la de Santa Teresa de Jesús y la de Santa Rosalía, además de la admiración y respeto que sintió por el sacerdocio. Todas ellas tuvieron una fuerte repercusión en la religiosidad de la Sevilla de finales del siglo XVII y se manifestaron en las diversas expresiones artísticas en la ciudad y en la  promoción de edificios dedicados a dichas advocaciones. Este fue el caso de la Casa Hospicio de Venerables Sacerdotes de Sevilla, cuyos trabajos comenzaron bajo la tutela de su antecesor en la mitra hispalense, don Ambrosio Ignacio de Spínola y Guzmán, y siendo terminados bajo el mandato del prelado que cierra el siglo XVII.
La evangelización en el "De unico vocationis modo" de Fray Bartolomé de las Casas
Authors: Valdivia Giménez Ramón
Published: April 2024

El libro de Bartolomé de Las Casas De unico vocationis modo es un ejercicio de reflexión profunda, riquísima en citas bíblicas,  patrísticas, magisteriales y jurídicas que llevan al lector a admitir la tesis de la evangelización pacífica y rechazar la guerra  preventiva como medio de evangelizar. En este artículo hemos señalado las condiciones biográficas por las que Las Casas realiza la obra, tras la decisión de hacerse dominico, concluyendo cómo tiene una relación específica en la que demuestra su misión con los indios. Seguidamente analizamos las condiciones históricas de la primerísima evangelización fundante en las Indias y cómo ésta es denunciada por los misioneros dominicos. Esto nos sirve de contraste con el método lascasiano de la evangelización pacífica que es refrendado por una teología tan actual que permite compararla con los principios doctrinales del Vaticano II e incluso puede servir  de referencia para la Nueva Evangelización.

La génesis de la tutela pública del patrimonio eclesiástico monumental en la España liberal
Authors: Gabardón de la Banda José Fernando
Published: April 2024

No sería hasta la segunda mitad del siglo XVIII cuando podemos afirmar la existencia de un primer ensayo tutelar por parte del Estado en el sistema normativo español, a raíz de las medidas desamortizadoras promovidas durante los reinados de Carlos III y Carlos IV, convirtiendo el patrimonio histórico y artístico de los jesuitas en bienes de dominio público. Posteriormente, el régimen bonapartista siguiendo el modelo revolucionario francés, convertiría un gran número de bienes eclesiásticos en bienes de interéspúblico, con el fin de paliar los expolios de los mariscales del ejército napoleónico. Con el advenimiento de Fernando VII la tutela pública del Patrimonio Monumental Eclesiástico oscilaría entre la devolución de los bienes eclesiásticos (periodos absolutistas) y la expropiación (trienio constitucional) con lo que tampoco se pudo solventar el equilibrio de intereses, espiritual y cultural, que conllevaría el espíritu tutelar contemporáneo.

Published: April 2024

La presente contribución aborda el tema de las placas cerámicas decoradas tardoantiguas con temática cristiana, que suponen una de las manifestaciones artísticas más peculiares de la Antigüedad Tardía, especialmente en el sur peninsular. Diversas son las incertidumbres que existen en torno a estos objetos, principalmente relacionadas con el hecho de que en su inmensa mayoría se desconoce el contexto arqueológico en el que se descubrieron. Afortunadamente, aunque con lentitud, esta situación se comienza a revertir. Por otra parte, las placas han sido utilizadas en el debate sobre el origen del cristianismo hispano.
Doña Josefa de Barros, fundadora de la Hermandad de la Pura y Limpia Concepción de Santa Ana (Triana)
Authors: Rodríguez Babío Amparo
Published: April 2024

Hacia 1680 se funda en la parroquia de Santa Ana de Triana (Sevilla) una corporación letífica que tiene por patrona a la Inmaculada Concepción. Lo singular del caso es que fue fundada por una mujer Doña Josefa de Barros y Saavedra, devota de dicha advocación mariana. Doña Josefa pertenecía a una familia ocupada en los viajes a Indias; su padre Gabriel de Barros había sido Piloto Mayor de los Galeones del Rey y su marido, Domingo Rodríguez ocupó un cargo similar pero en la flota de Nueva España. En este artículo se dan a conocer algunos aspectos de la vida de la fundadora, así como noticias sobre esta desconocida hermandad.
Las Misiones populares de los jesuitas en Andalucía: de 1554 a la actualidad
Authors: Molina García Leonardo
Published: April 2024

Los jesuitas, desde los primeros tiempos, jugaron un papel decisivo en la organización de las misiones en el mundo moderno. Porque la aportación más original de los jesuitas que irrumpieron en la Iglesia en el siglo XVI fue doble; la profundización en el interior sistemática u organizada en los “Ejercicios Espirituales” de san Ignacio y la racionalización de sus propuestas con dos misiones; la popular y la laica (la enseñanza). En eso se diferenciaban de las dos grandes tradicionales de la Edad Media, los dominicos y los franciscanos. Hablar de la misión es hablar del “principio y fundamento” de la Compañía de Jesús. Los tres ministerios más característicos de la Compañía de Jesús han sido por muchos años, la enseñanza, las Congregaciones Marianas y las misiones populares.

Published: April 2024

El estudio realizado tuvo como propósito determinar la relación entre la planificación estratégica y la gestión por procesos en una Ugel de Lima. La planificación estratégica es indispensable en las instituciones públicas ya que posibilitará establecer una ruta metodológica que está constituida por la misión, la visión, los objetivos estratégicos y el logro de metas; esto se concatena con una adecuada gestión de procesos que encamine de manera adecuada los requerimientos de recursos para alcanzar los objetivos propuestos a nivel organizacional. La investigación fue de tipo básica, nivel correlacional y de corte transversal; se emplearon dos instrumentos para la recolección de datos obteniéndose una confiabilidad por Alfa de Cronbach para la variable planificación estratégica de 0.951 y para la variable gestión por procesos de 0.899. Se evidenció que existe una relación entre los constructos de estudio de rho=0.714 con un p-valor=0.000<0.05. Se concluyó que la planificación estratégica se encuentra asociada con la gestión de procesos en una Ugel de Lima.
Ética, diversidad cultural y función social. Publicistas y publicidad en un mundo cambiante
Authors: Anzuátegui Macías Diana , Simbaña Q. Roberto
Published: April 2024

En el presente siglo, la globalización ha llevado al mundo a una sociedad que no puede prescindir de las redes sociales. A través de ellas, se enfrenta a diversas complejidades, como la publicidad, crucial para la promoción de productos y valores. Con el avance tecnológico y el acceso a diferentes productos, las redes sociales juegan un papel fundamental en la comercialización de bienes de consumo. El artículo reflexiona sobre el desafío de la globalización en la profesión de redactor publicitario y cómo las redes sociales han ampliado la complejidad de esta era. Se llevó a cabo un análisis bibliográfico de fuentes especializadas, destacando el uso del idioma inglés como medio de difusión de culturas y corrientes ideológicas externas, el escándalo del capitalismo de vigilancia que afecta la privacidad de los usuarios en internet, y el impacto de las redes sociales. Se concluye que la labor del publicista va más allá de aspectos técnicos y creativos para una marca, implicando una responsabilidad ética frente a la recopilación abusiva de datos por empresas sin consentimiento. Esta labor también desempeña un papel relevante en la preservación de valores culturales que deben ser considerados con mayor atención.
Representaciones de las mujeres combatientes en la propaganda de los grupos insurgentes. El caso de las FARC-EP
Authors: Roux Clément
Published: April 2024

Entre 2004 y 2016, la guerrilla colombiana de las FARC-EP pasó por varias mutaciones antes de firmar un acuerdo de paz que marcó el fin de su lucha armada. En cada una de estas fases, lo que los guerrilleros llamaban “propaganda” ha jugado un papel central en la estrategia del grupo. Este artículo analiza 37 números de Resistencia, la revista clandestina de las FARC-EP. Examina críticamente la evolución de las representaciones de la mujer combatiente, aspecto importante de la guerra propagandística en Colombia. Revela dos estrategias sucesivas. En un primer tiempo, las FARC-EP desarrollaron un discurso de compensación simbólica, ofreciendo a las mujeres en sus filas constantes homenajes, pero dejando poco espacio para la voz femenina en su revista. A partir de 2012, se observa una paulatina transversalización del género, que corresponde a la emergencia de figuras femeninas de primer plano tanto en la mesa de negociación como en las páginas de Resistencia, lo que confirma la performatividad que puede tener el discurso feminista en las organizaciones insurgentes durante los procesos de paz. El análisis también revela la persistencia en Colombia de estrategias discursivas que reciclan estereotipos de género militarizados producidos por los actores armados durante la guerra.
