Idealización y cliché en el narcopolicial mexicano: la saga de Edgar “el Zurdo” Mendieta
Authors: Castillo Carrillo Gerardo
Published: March 2023

En el presente artículo nos disponemos a revisar la caracterización que la narrativa mexicana con temática narco ha realizado sobre el detective. Este tipo de personaje se ha vuelto emblemático, por ejemplo, en la obra literaria de escritores como Paco Ignacio Taibo II, Rafael Ramírez Heredia, Élmer Mendoza, Gonzalo Martré, Bernardo Fernández, entre otros. La mayor parte de estos autores han publicado de manera frecuente sagas novelísticas con el mismo protagonista-detective (como Héctor Belascoarán Shayne, Edgar el “Zurdo” Mendieta o Andrea Mijangos), quienes ante un sistema de justicia inoperante e impune tratarán de hacer prevalecer el orden social pese a los obstáculos y el peligro que representa el crimen organizado. De este modo, detectives como Edgar “el Zurdo” Mendieta desempeña su labor, dentro de la corparación policiaca, en un contexto de extrema violencia causada por los carteles del narcotráfico. Pese a esta realidad caótica, el personaje estará caracterizado, por parte de su autor, bajo una visión romántica e idealista basada en el estereotipo de agente honesto, íntegro e infalibles ante un sistema judicial extremadamente corrupto. A partir de estos planteamientos, se defenderá como premisa central que esta saga literaria, escrita por Élmer Mendoza, solo reproduce una perspectiva cerrada, utópica y tradicional de la narrativa policiaca.

Como introduzimos em nossa primeira conversa, a análise sensorial pode ser usada para o estabelecimento de critérios de qualidade, controle de qualidade na produção industrial e no desenvolvimento de novos produtos. Segundo a ABNT (Associação Brasileira de Normas Técnicas)1 , a análise sensorial é usada para evocar, medir, analisar e interpretar reações obtidas a partir dos sentidos da visão, tato, olfato, audição e paladar. Dessa vez o foco é abranger os diferentes tipos de testes aos quais a cerveja pode ser submetida para a avaliação sensorial. Como será visto com mais detalhes no fluxograma da – INTRODUÇÃO ANÁLISE SENSORIAL DE CERVEJAS PARA A INDÚSTRIA E MICROCERVEJARIAS página 6, os testes podem ser classificados em TESTES DESCRITIVOS, TESTES DISCRIMINATIVOS E TESTES AFETIVOS. Cada uma dessas classificações contêm tipos diferentes de testes, que veremos nos tópicos a seguir. Ao final, falamos sobre critérios de análise comuns na indústria cervejeira, onde a manutenção das características originais e da qualidade da bebida tem impacto imenso no produto final. A análise descritiva quantitativa para cerveja pode usar oito atributos de qualidade, como veremos, e a esses atributos é associada uma pontuação, cuja soma indica a qualidade da cerveja produzida.

Farmers’ Attitudes toward the Future of Direct Payments: An Empirical Study from Germany
Authors: Bethge Sabrina , Lakner Sebastian
Published: March 2023

The new Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) reform has met with large-scale protests from farmers throughout Europe, intending to change one of the most controversial components: direct payments. We analyze German farmers' attitudes and understanding of direct payments. The study employs a survey of 435 farmers collected from January to February 2021. Using cluster analysis and quantitative content analysis, we identified three distinct groups: (1) The “Independents” (43.7%) are entrepreneurs and have a competitive mindset. They would prefer to abolish direct payments associated with more freedom from policy conditions. (2) The “Conservatives” (27.0%) advocate an income policy based on direct payments, and they reject higher environmental standards. (3) The “Environmentalists” (30.3%) emphasize a pronounced environmental awareness, fa-voring an environmentally performance-based approach. The results show that policies are often perceived differently than they are intentionally designed. Improving the effectiveness of the policy measure requires sufficient information about the CAP's objectives for farmers, focusing on more transparent communication strategies. From a policy perspective, a more differentiated design of policy instruments and longer transformation periods are needed to engage farmers in policy change.
The influence of mother language on children's oral language ability in efforts to improve children's reading and writing ability in Pematang Serai village, Langkat district
Authors: Rusyda Nazhirah Yunus  , Munisa
Published: March 2023

Low levels of education and interest in reading are suspected to be the cause of the decline in the character values of the millennial generation. The absence of PAUD schools is one of the obstacles for the children of Pematang Serai Village to get to know preschool education. Preschool education is a golden opportunity for children to recognize letters and numbers. Another problem that occurs in the village of Pematang Serai is a weak insight into tourism development: many people from the village of Pematang Serai do not understand the positive impact of tourism on economic, social, natural, and cultural conservation for the welfare of society. This is inseparable from the academic abilities of the people of Pematang Serai Village which are still minimal so this research is expected to have an impact on the people of Pematang Serai Village, especially children who will become the next generation of the nation. Based on the description and results of data analysis, it was found that language changes in the oral examination of bilingual children when interacting or attending lessons in class, namely the change in the use of standard non-standard varieties or vice versa. The change from standard variety to non-standard variety occurs when interactions occur between children or between children and teachers who share the same mother tongue.

During the final two decades, the credit card framework has been broadly utilized as a component to drive the worldwide economy to develop significantly. A credit card supplier has issued millions of credit cards to its clients. Be that as it may, issuing credit cards to off-base clients can be a pivotal calculation of a monetary emergency. The objective of this paper is to mine useful data from the databases and apply data mining algorithms for processing credit card applications based on certain criteria. We have done the credit card application processing through k-clusters and decision trees, thus making the process easy and efficient. The processing takes place by considering the applicant's data in a day and then evaluating them by different data mining algorithms. We have used data classification, query analyzer, k-clustering, decision trees and association rules. Our study shows that by clustering and decision trees the applicants can be classified effectively according to the needed criteria.

Determination of fibrosis predictors in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Authors: Chernova V. M. , Galchynska V. Y.
Published: March 2023

Objective — to determine the prognostic role of markers of systemic inflammation and signaling molecules in the development of fibrosis in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
Materials and methods. Examinations involved 84 patients with NAFLD in combination with components of the metabolic syndrome. Metabolic parameters were studied using standard methods. Markers of systemic inflammation (CRP and TNF‑α, cytokeratin‑18 (CK‑18)) and miRNA‑34a and miRNA‑122 were determined. The ultrasound method was used to diagnose liver fibrosis. Mathematical statistics methods were used to evaluate associations of indicators.
Results. Significantly higher expression levels of miRNA‑34a were determined in patients with morbid obesity compared to NAFLD patients with excessive body mass and first and second degree obesity. The analysis of the dependence of serum markers of inflammation on the activity of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) showed the increase in TNF‑α and CRP levels along with the increase of its activity. Moreover, the CK‑18 levels in patients with NAFLD varied depending on the VAT activity, which indicates the influence of this marker on the development and progression of metabolic disorders in polymorbid patients. When comparing the expression level of miRNA‑34a with different activity of visceral adipose tissue, the maximum values of the studied indicator were found in the group of patients with high index of visceral obesity (IVO). The obtained may indicate possible effects of miRNA‑34a on the activation of lipogenesis and disruption of the distribution of adipose tissue in the direction of an increase in its visceral component. The revealed relationships between miRNA‑122 and insulin resistance, disorders of lipid metabolism, markers of cytolytic damage of hepatocytes and pro‑inflammatory cytokines indicate the triggering role of miRNA‑122 in the progression of NAFLD (p < 0.05). In patients with steatosis of the 3rd degree, significant differences in the level of relative normalized expression of miRNA‑34a were observed compared to the indicators of the group of steatosis of the 1st degree. In fibrosis of high grades (F3 — F 4), significantly higher expression of miRNA‑122 was observed. At the initial stages of fibrosis (F1—F2) a moderate increase in the levels of the studied miRNA was also observed.
Conclusions. Determining the expression level of miRNA‑122 can be a potential non‑invasive predictor of fibrosis progression in NAFLD patients.

Hospital Associated Deconditioning: A System-Thinking Solution to Promoting Incidental Patient Movement
Authors: Brinkley Andrew , White Olivia , Pagay Ilina
Published: March 2023

Hospital associated deconditioning is a syndrome predicted by inactivity, sedentary behaviour, and maladaptive sleep and dietary behaviours. There have been a range of interventions and programmes which have attempted to modify the behaviours predicting deconditioning, with weak to moderate effectiveness. This to some extent may be due to researchers, policymakers, stakeholders, and clinicians neglecting the system in which deconditioning occurs. Systems-thinking methodologies may have the capacity to understand the complexity underpinning deconditioning and explain where ‘change’ can be acceptably, feasibly, and effectively leveraged. In addressing this challenge, the study which this protocol represents will use secondary data to understand the system through a sequential process and identify leverage points for change. These processes will be validated through an expert group of academics, stakeholders, and a representation of the clinical multi-disciplinary team. More specifically, building on previous research outside a clinical domain, the present study will follow five sequential steps. These include conducting a PRISMA scoping review of peer-reviewed and grey evidence (Phase 1), using these data to construct AcciMap and ActorMap (Phase 2) and a systems map (Phase 3), identifying leverage points (Phase 4), and verifying our systems-science findings with subject experts (Phase 5). Findings will be published within academic periodicals, presented within conferences, and disseminated to policymakers through reports and outreach events.
Design and development of Open-Source Spirometer for monitoring Respiratory health.
Authors: Verma Ankur
Published: March 2023

Spirometry is the most common type of pulmonary function test that measures how much air you can breathe in and out of your lungs, as well as how easily and fast you can blow the air out of your lungs. Despite the importance of spirometry in diagnosis and management of respiratory diseases, the commercial spirometers that perform these tests can be expensive and not accessible to everyone. Our open source spirometer (Spir-O) utilizes readily available electronic components and sensors, which can be easily assembled and calibrated. We believe that this project can help make spirometry more accessible to a wider range of individuals and communities, especially in resource-limited settings.

Differential expression of PLCD1 in colorectal cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: March 2023

Cancer is a leading cause of death and colorectal cancer is among the most lethal cancers (1, 2). We mined public and published microarray datasets (3, 4) to determine in an unbiased fashion and at the level of the transcriptome genes most differentially expressed in the primary tumors of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). We found significant differential expression of the gene encoding phospholipase C, delta 1, PLCD1, when comparing colorectal tumors to the tissue of origin, the colon. PLCD1 mRNA was present at significantly lower quantities in tumors of the colon as compared to normal colorectal tissue. PLCD1 expression changes may be important for the initiation or progression of human CRC.

Operationalizing an open-source dashboard for communicating results of wastewater-based epidemiology
Authors: Hill Dustin  T. , Dunham Christopher , Larsen David  A. , Collins Mary  B.
Published: March 2023

COVID-19 saw the expansion of public health communication tools to manage and inform the pandemic as it evolved. While the utility of these tools is important in and of itself, it was also the case that during this time experts honed the effectiveness in a near real-time fashion. One tool that saw extensive use was the public health dashboard, web-based visualization tools that communicate information to users in quick and easy to read graphics. Dashboards were widely used prior to the pandemic in many fields, but COVID-19 saw expanded use and increased development. To date, dashboards have become an important and part of many public health surveillance programs around the world helping decisionmakers use data on a wide variety of topics including, but not limited to caseloads, hospitalizations, and to find out environmental surveillance results from testing wastewater. Wastewater surveillance provides community-based and spatially relevant data on disease transmission and trends within communities, making it an excellent candidate for dashboard development to improve understanding and use of the data to inform disease dynamics. We developed a dashboard for New York State’s wastewater surveillance program using open-source, reproducible web programming software. In just two months from September 2022 and November 2022, our dashboard received over 8,000 unique visitors with visits lasting an average of less than two minutes each. The dashboard we developed has been useful for informing COVID-19 response in New York and our methods can be adapted to other programs and pathogens. We provide descriptions of how the dashboard was developed and maintained, in addition to specific guidance for reproducing our dashboard in other areas and for other pathogens. The dashboard methods we present use the open-source program R, however, the methods can be used in other programs by researchers and institution seeking to develop public health communication tools.
The Digital Environmental Footprint - a holistic framework of Digital Sustainability
Authors: Mewes Gereon
Published: March 2023

This paper examines the different ways in which the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) sector negatively affects the environment. To capture environmental externalities beyond the common but limited carbon footprint, a novel holistic framework of digital sustainability was created - the Digital Environmental Footprint (DEF). To apply and test the DEF, the ICT sector was evaluated regarding its impacts on the sustainability dimensions of global carbon footprint, biodiversity, and availability of non-renewable resources. It was found that the production phase of digital devices has the most severe impact on these dimensions, followed by the end-of-life phase. The use phase was found to have moderate but significant impacts on sustainability that are expected to decrease over time alongside the global Carbon Intensity of Electricity (CIE). This paper emphasizes the importance of considering dimensions of digital sustainability beyond carbon footprint and the need for establishing holistic metrics for evaluating the sustainability of the ICT sector.
Improving Pre-service Teachers’ Noticing and Attitudes about Embodied Mathematical Reasoning through Collaborative Online Professional Learning
Authors: Sung Hanall , Swart Michael , Nathan Mitchell
Published: March 2023

K-12 pre-service teachers (PSTs, n=16) participated in a collaborative online teacher professional development program aimed at increasing their noticing and beliefs about embodied mathematical reasoning. Before and after the intervention, PSTs assessed the quality of students’ geometric reasoning as portrayed in videos of student speech and gestures, and completed a validated survey regarding teachers’ attitudes about gesture for learning and instruction. PSTs then participated in the collaborative embodied professional learning experiences, which included playing and then designing content for a motion-capture video game for improving students’ geometric reasoning and proof production through embodied interactions. Results from multimodal discourse analysis of video-prompted interviews with PSTs, epistemic network analysis, and the surveys reveal significant improvements in PSTs’ noticing, interpreting, and appreciating of embodied forms of mathematical ways of knowing, and improved attitudes about the role of gestures in learning and teaching. Implications are offered for developing teachers’ noticing skills and formative assessment practices that include students’ nonverbal ways of expressing mathematical reasoning, and for exploring embodied design activities to influence teachers’ attitudes and beliefs about the embodied nature of student thinking and learning.

Jobs’ Amenability to Working from Home: Evidence from Skills Surveys for
53 Countries
Authors: Hatayama Maho , Viollaz Mariana , Winkler Hernan
Published: March 2023

We use skills surveys from 53 countries to estimate jobs’ amenability to working
from home (WFH). Our measure combines data on self-reported jobs’ characteristics and
home internet access into a standardized measure. We find that jobs’ amenability to WFH
increases with economic development. Women, college graduates, and salaried and formal
workers have jobs that are more amenable to WFH than the average. The opposite holds for
workers in hotels and restaurants, construction, agriculture, and commerce. We validate
our measure using longitudinal data from Chile and showing that WFH amenability
correlates negatively with job losses between 2019 and 2020 and positively with the
observed share of workers who worked from home in 2020. Finally, occupations explain
less than one third of the variability in the WFH measure and its components,
highlighting the importance of using individual-level data to assess jobs’ amenability
to WFH.   JEL Classification Codes: J22; J61; O30

In this article, I examine critically the framing of the African girl child in international development discourse on menstruation and menstrual activism and address the question, “What influence have African girls had on policy or programs and to what extent have they been mere targets and objects of such policies and programs?” I analyze baseline interviews I carried out at the inception of a Zimbabwean sanitary wear intervention and shine a light on African girls as potential guides and consultants in constructing policy and programs. I show how the communitarian, Ubuntu-centred family values of rural Ndebele people provide a counterpoint to colonial and neoliberal Western-centred development approaches in addressing challenges girls face in relation to menstrual preparation and early unintended pregnancy.
Cameroon's Schools

In this article, the data for which I acquired through a systematic review of articles published over three years, focusing on analyzing the evolution of the situation over these past years, I discuss school-based gender violence in Cameroon. Considering the complexity of Cameroonian society and its responses to violence against girls and women, we need to establish that violence can be addressed, and we have to suggest how this can be done. From one region to another, a girl being denied access to education, being trafficked, or being forced into early marriage constitutes an experience of violence. Even though the government has been fighting these ills for the past twenty years the results show that girls are still highly vulnerable in the education system.

OBJECTIVE

The objective of this study was to estimate the diagnostic performance (sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value) for recognizing ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) failure in the parents of patients 0–18 years of age who attended the hospital’s emergency room (ER). The second objective was to identify the factors associated with the parents’ ability to recognize the shunt blockage (true positives).

METHODS

A prospective cohort study was conducted between 2021 and 2022 including all patients 0–18 years of age who had a VPS and attended the hospital’s ER with symptoms that could correspond to VPS blockage. Parents were interviewed on admission and patients were assessed over time to discover potential VPS malfunction by surgery or follow-up. Consent was obtained from all participants.

RESULTS

Ninety-one patients were surveyed, and 59.3% showed evidence of a confirmed VPS blockage. Parental sensitivity was 66.7%, with a specificity of 21.6%. An association was found between parents who could correctly identify their child’s shunt block and the number of symptoms of shunt failure that the parent could name (OR 2.4, p < 0.05) as well as parents who reported vomiting and headache as symptoms of shunt malfunction (OR 6, p < 0.05). Parents who knew the first and last name of their primary neurosurgeon (OR 3.5, p < 0.05) also had better diagnostic sensitivity.

CONCLUSIONS

Parents who are more knowledgeable of their child’s disease, as well as parents who have good communication with their neurosurgeon, were found to have better diagnostic sensitivity.

OBJECTIVE

The authors sought to determine if postoperative disc height loss is associated with pseudarthrosis following anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF). They also sought to determine if the amount of postoperative disc height loss is predictive of need for revision for pseudarthrosis, as well as the impact of postoperative disc height loss on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) following surgery.

METHODS

The authors retrospectively identified patients aged > 18 years who underwent primary one- to three-level ACDF with allograft at a single institution with 1-year postoperative lateral and flexion-extension cervical spine radiographs. Logistic regression models and receiver operating characteristic curves were used for analysis. Alpha was set at p < 0.05.

RESULTS

Anterior or posterior disc height loss ≥ 2 mm was found in 52.5% of patients. Patients with a loss ≥ 2 mm were more likely to develop pseudarthrosis (p = 0.021) but not to undergo revision surgery due to pseudarthrosis (p = 0.459). Multivariable analysis identified male sex (OR 1.66, p = 0.013), the number of levels fused (OR 2.09, p < 0.001), and fusion at C6–7 (OR 1.52, p = 0.043) as predictors of disc height loss. The analysis also revealed that levels at the top (OR 0.383, 95% CI 0.170–0.854, p = 0.020) and middle (OR 0.174, 95% CI 0.053–0.548, p = 0.003) of fusion constructs were significant independent predictors of lower pseudarthrosis rates while disc height loss was not. Patients with disc height loss had significantly less improvement in scores for the Neck Disability Index (p = 0.002), visual analog scale (VAS) for arm pain (p = 0.018), and VAS for neck pain (p = 0.011) at 1 year following surgery.

CONCLUSIONS

This study is, to the authors’ knowledge, the largest study to date to assess the impact of postoperative disc height loss after ACDF. Disc height loss following ACDF was not predictive of revision surgery for pseudarthrosis or overall pseudarthrosis rates. However, pseudarthrosis was less likely to occur at the top and middle of fusion constructs. Loss in disc height postoperatively was significantly associated with less improvement in PROMs.

OBJECTIVE

Frailty has not been clearly defined in the context of spinal metastatic disease (SMD). Given this, the objective of this study was to better understand how members of the international AO Spine community conceptualize, define, and assess frailty in SMD.

METHODS

The AO Spine Knowledge Forum Tumor conducted an international cross-sectional survey of the AO Spine community. The survey was developed using a modified Delphi technique and was designed to capture preoperative surrogate markers of frailty and relevant postoperative clinical outcomes in the context of SMD. Responses were ranked using weighted averages. Consensus was defined as ≥ 70% agreement among respondents.

RESULTS

Results were analyzed for 359 respondents, with an 87% completion rate. Study participants represented 71 countries. In the clinical setting, most respondents informally assess frailty and cognition in patients with SMD by forming a general perception based on clinical condition and patient history. Consensus was attained among respondents regarding the association between 14 preoperative clinical variables and frailty. Severe comorbidities, extensive systemic disease burden, and poor performance status were most associated with frailty. Severe comorbidities associated with frailty included high-risk cardiopulmonary disease, renal failure, liver failure, and malnutrition. The most clinically relevant outcomes were major complications, neurological recovery, and change in performance status.

CONCLUSIONS

The respondents recognized that frailty is important, but they most commonly evaluate it based on general clinical impressions rather than using existing frailty tools. The authors identified numerous preoperative surrogate markers of frailty and postoperative clinical outcomes that spine surgeons perceived as most relevant in this population.
