Authors: SERTTAŞ İsa , AKBAŞ Aykut Asım , SARI Mehmet
Published: April 2022

Bu çalışma, Afyonkarahisar ili Hocalar ilçesindeki küçükbaş hayvancılık işletmelerinin mevcut durumunu ortaya koymak amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın verileri 16 köy ve beldede 105 küçükbaş işletmesinden yetiştiricilerle yüz yüze yapılan anketler ile elde edilmiştir. Ankete katılan yetiştiricilerin ortalama yaşı 48,47 olup, %75,20 oranıyla ilkokul mezunu oldukları tespit edilmiştir. İşletmelerindeki aile üyelerinin ortalama sayısı ile işletmelerin ortalama yaşı (yıl) sırasıyla 5,36 kişi ve 20,09 yıl olarak bulunmuştur. Araştırma kapsamında yetiştiricilerin genellikle ve eşit oranda (%45,70) yarı-açık ve kapalı barınak sistemlerini tercih ettikleri görülmüştür. Ağılların taban yapısının genel olarak topraktan oluştuğu (%74,30), çatı malzemesi olarak da kiremit (%72,40) kullanıldığı belirlenmiştir. İşletmelerde yemin, hayvanlara mera dışında sadece kış aylarında kaba ve konsantre yem olarak sırasıyla günlük 1,22 kg, 0,80 kg olarak veridiği saptanmıştır. Çalışmada, işletmelerde sağımdan önce hayvanların meme temizliğinin %48,40 oranıyla yapıldığı belirlenmiştir. Koyun ve keçilerin sütlerinin değerlendirilme şekli incelendiğinde, genel olarak sütün %70,50 oranında işlenerek peynir olarak satıldığı belirlenmiştir. Küçükbaş hayvancılıkla uğraşan yetiştiricilerin çok büyük bir kısmının (%93,30) bilgi desteği alma noktasında sıkıntılar yaşamadıkları ortaya konulmuştur. Bilgi desteği alınan kurumlar arasında en yüksek oran İlçe Tarım ve Orman Müdürlüğü’ne aittir (%35,40). Sonuç olarak, Afyonkarahisar ili Hocalar ilçesinde bilgi desteği alınsa da geleneksel yöntemlerin etkisinin hissedilmesi ve özellikle de işletmelerin çoğunda kayıt sistemi olmaması önemli sıkıntılar arasındadır. İşletmelerdeki mevcut sıkıntıların azaltılarak, üretimin istenilen noktalara gelmesinde küçükbaş sektörü paydaşlarının daha etkin rol alması gerektiği düşünülmektedir.

Authors: KAYA Feyyaz , BOZKURT Gökhan
Published: April 2022

In this study, it was aimed to compare the differences in the metabolic status of grazing ewes with live and stillbirth lambs for which no etiological infectious agent could be isolated. Group 1 (live and stillbirth lambs) and group 2 (live lambs) consisted of 20 multiparous Sakiz ewes. Blood samples were collected two times on the parturition day and the day fifteenth after parturition. In the first sampling time, triglyceride levels of group 2 were determined significantly (p<0.001) higher than group 1. In the second sampling time, levels of magnesium (p<0.05), total protein (P<0.01), cholesterol (p<0.01), and triglyceride (p<0.05) levels were found significantly higher in group 2 than group 1. However, significant decreases were observed in both calcium and triglyceride levels in group 2 between the two sampling times. The beta-hydroxybutyric acid (BHBA) (p<0.05) levels were found significantly higher in the second sampling time than in the first sampling time only in group 1. Unlike the BHBA levels, a significant decrease was determined in both cholesterol and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels (p<0.05) in group 1 as the lactation progressed. Finally, we concluded that the metabolic status of group 2 is better than group 1, and it is important to the evaluation and follow-up of the metabolism in ewes with stillbirth without any etiological diagnose that couldn’t be determined.

Published: April 2022

Surgical problems observed in cats after falling from balconies or windows of buildings are significant, and this phenomenon of falling from a height is known as high-rise syndrome (HRS). The purpose of this study was to clinically evaluate frequently encountered cases of cats falling from a height.
Overall, 72 cats of different breeds, ages and sexes brought to XXX University, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Department of Surgery, with complaints of falls from a height in 2019 were included.
Falls from a height are more common during summer. Orthopaedic problems are common (58.33%), and femoral fractures (23.61%) constitute an important part of them. The affected cats were aged mostly under the 1 year. Furthermore, the survival rate of these cats was found to be 95.8%.
In conclusion, the main purpose for the treatment of cats with HRS should be to stabilise their general condition and subsequently correct orthopaedic and/or soft tissue damage.

Published: April 2022

Dietary consumption of commercially prepared (often through processing) corn syrup can activate reactive oxygen species and the inflammatory pathways observed in kidney damage in humans and experimental animals. This study was designed to assess the effects of antioxidant properties of acetylsalicylic (ASA) and ascorbic acid (AA) on corn syrup (CS) induced renal injury. Forty male Sprague–Dawley rats (14–16 weeks) were randomly classified into 5 groups, each containing 8 rats: control group (C), CS group, CS+ASA group (ASA-10 mg/kg/day/po), CS+AA group (AA-200 mg/kg/day/po) and CS+ASA+AA group (combination treatment with ASA and AA doses). At the end of the experiment, blood and tissue samples were collected for biochemical, histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations. Malondialdehyde (p<0.001) levels were increased in the CS group compared with control group and were decreased in the ASA, AA and ASA+AA treated groups (p≤0.001 for all) compared with CS group. Catalase activities were decreased in the CS group (p≤0.001) compared with the control group (p<0.001) and significantly increased in AS+AA-treated group (p<0.001) compared with the CS group. Significant histopathological changes including tubular vacuoler degeneration, tubular dilatation, cortical and medullar haemorrhage, mononuclear cell infiltration, and increased inducible nitric oxide synthase and tumor necrosis factor-α staining were observed in the CS group. Combination theraphy reversed all these changes. The administration of ASA and AA for the treatment of kidney damage due to corn syrup consumption provides an ideal target for improving oxidative stress and potential therapeutic treatments.
Traditional Lecture versus Case-Based Learning in a Therapeutic Drug Monitoring Course within an Integrated Pharmacy Curriculum
Authors: Bowers Riley D. , Asbill C. Scott
Published: April 2022

Background: Case-based learning has been shown to increase student perception and performance in multiple topics in pharmacy education. However, no studies have evaluated the impact of virtual patients and case-based learning on student knowledge and knowledge retention of therapeutic drug monitoring and dosing.
Innovation: Due to a curriculum overhaul promoting integration and application-based learning, the traditional third-year (P3) therapeutic drug monitoring course was reduced from four (4) credit hours to two (2), in order to add time to pharmacotherapy and skills labs. In order to adapt to this change, the course was shifted to a case-based learning format utilizing virtual patients within a simulated electronic health record (EHR) where the course grade distribution shifted in favor of patient cases versus exam questions. An analysis of student knowledge and knowledge retention of antibiotic dosing and monitoring was conducted comparing students who completed the traditional course versus those who completed the case-based course.
Findings: Despite the decrease in credit hours, there was no significant difference shown in the initial knowledge assessment between the traditional and case-based courses (87.0 vs 85.5%). Knowledge retention actually improved in the students who completed the case-based course (78.1% vs 82.5%).
Conclusion: Utilizing case-based instruction to teach antibiotic dosing and monitoring was successful in preparing students for these skills during their experiential rotations. Even though students had half the instruction time, they were able to perform calculations and retain knowledge as well as students in the traditional curriculum.

Published: April 2022

Este artigo apresenta um estudo que acompanhou um grupo de alfabetizadoras em 2020 com o objetivo de investigar quais seriam os maiores desafios experienciados com a implementação do ensino remoto para docentes iniciantes na alfabetização. Os dados analisados originam-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa que indicia complexidades com relação às adaptações iniciais da nova modalidade de ensino, dificuldades com o estabelecimento das relações com os pais, problemas de gerenciamento do tempo acarretando sobrecarga de trabalho, até os impasses para se realizar aulas síncronas. Aspectos que reforçam a importância de se promover espaços de acolhimento e formação a esses docentes que há pouco iniciaram na alfabetização, e tão logo se depararam com o ineditismo do ensino não presencial.
Balancing Resettlement, Protection and Rapport on the Frontline: Delivering the Resettlement Assistance Program during COVID-19
Authors: Abbas Saba
Published: April 2022

Drawing on my experience as a general counsellor in the Resettlement Assistance Program (RAP), I explore the impact COVID-19 has had on the initial resettlement services provided for government-assisted refugees (GARs) and on frontline workers in the field. Balancing the requirement to enforce protection measures and the need to establish rapport was one of the major challenges the pandemic posed to GAR support practices. To unpack the particularities of this challenge, I give the example of two resettlement services GARs receive upon arrival: namely, resettlement orientations and children’s education. I argue that using an intersectional lens demonstrates the pandemic’s unequal effects and how they exacerbate the vulnerabilities of GARs embarking on their resettlement journey. I hold that developing COVID-19 responses informed by intersectionality opens a space for services and policies that mitigate these effects.

Aportes desde la epistemología feminista para la comprensión de los feminicidios
Authors: Solyszko Gomes Izabel
Published: April 2022

Al interior de los movimientos feministas latinoamericanos se han consolidado un conjunto de concepciones y formulaciones sobre los feminicidios. En vista de ello, el planteamiento central de este artículo es que el feminicidio es un fenómeno social complejo que puede ser examinado, desde la epistemología feminista, de acuerdo con tres lineamientos teóricos: (i) una corriente genérica que reconoce todas las muertes violentas de mujeres como feminicidios; (ii) una corriente específica que reconoce solo algunos asesinatos de mujeres como feminicidios y (iii) una corriente que dialoga con el campo jurídico a partir del examen de las propuestas de tipificación penal del fenómeno. Independientemente de sus divergencias y disputas, al discutir estas perspectivas se pone de manifiesto que corresponden a preocupaciones y enfoques distintos que, sin embargo, confluyen para pensar y enfrentar un mismo problema: la matanza de mujeres por su condición de género.
Percepciones y motivaciones sobre la vasectomía de usuarias/os de redes sociales y hombres vasectomizados.
Authors: Rivera Montero Danny Francis , Sánchez Sandra Marcela , Rivillas Juan Carlos
Published: April 2022

Esta Investigación tiene por objetivo describir las motivaciones de los hombres para decidir sobre la realización de la vasectomía y explorar la percepción social de este procedimiento en las personas que usan redes sociales. Se realizó un estudio exploratorio-descriptivo utilizando métodos cuantitativos (dos encuestas estructuradas). Se identificó que, de los hombres que se realizaron la vasectomía en septiembre de 2019, 81,4% estaba casado o unido, 52,3% tenía educación universitaria y 71,8% tenía dos o más hijos. Los conocimientos sobre la vasectomía son principalmente la facilidad del procedimiento y el requisito legal de tener mínimo 18 años para hacérsela; los imaginarios radican en que las personas consideran que un hombre que se realiza la vasectomía es cuidador, piensa en su pareja y disfruta plenamente de sus relaciones sexuales. Se puede concluir que la vasectomía se ha convertido en un procedimiento esencial para hombres que tienen una paridad satisfecha. Aún, hay desconocimiento sobre este procedimiento, se debe avanzar en la eliminación de barreras, imaginarios negativos y en estereotipos de género subyacentes en las personas, para avanzar en una responsabilidad compartida de la anticoncepción.

La literatura no es otra cosa que escritura del Yo. Sin embargo, hay yos que se esconden y otros que se manifiestan sin recato. En fin, las literaturas son construcciones de una ficcionalidad que multiplica sus tramas. No hay yo escrito sin juegos y alteraciones con respecto al Yo sustentado en un ser de carne y hueso. Quizá a veces habla más la carne que el hueso, y cuando hablan los huesos el pathos de las palabras oscurece el lenguaje.

Published: April 2022

In 2019, police across Dallas County asked the District Attorney to prosecute fewer marijuana cases than the year before. This report examines whether the racial disparity in those cases improved at the same time. Fewer, Not Fairer shows that while the number of referrals declined, police were still more likely to refer a Black person for marijuana prosecution than a non-Black person. However, some cities achieved more fairness when their police departments almost entirely stopped requesting marijuana prosecutions altogether.

Published: April 2022

This paper examines and offers a comparative approach to the social background, motivation, performance, self-image and career path of Hungarian and Croatian law students. The paper is based on the results of the empirical research conducted in 2017 by Attila Badó, János Lőrinczi and Zsófia Patyi. The opinions of students were analysed in Croatia in 2018 and 2019 using similar methods. The comparative approach was motivated by the 150th anniversary of the 1868 Croatian-Hungarian Compromise. The two countries formed a state of union for 816 years (1102-1918). After the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, Croatia became part of the South Slavic state and its education system moved further away from the Hungarian. However, after World War II, higher education in both countries was organized under similar social conditions (one-party system, communist ideology). Currently, the education systems countries are similar to those in the EU Member States. A comparison of their legal studies can provide answers to the same relevant questions.

Authors: Archibong Felix , Ugbonna U. K. , Okoye I. , Legogie A. , Fadipe I. , Nyong E. , Effanga A. , Okokon I. B.
Published: April 2022

Objectives:

Adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) is an important factor required to suppress viral activities and its load in the human body. There are identified factors that determine adherence to ART and these factors have been noticed based on environments. This study compared predictors of ART adherence between the urban and rural centers within the same State in Nigeria.

Material and Methods:

The study was a cross-sectional analytic study involving 322 participants. Data were analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 20. Descriptive and inferential statistics were done with the data collected.

Results:

There were more adherent participants in the urban than the rural center in a ratio of 2.2:1. There was also significant difference in the predictors of adherence to ART in these two centers. The factors that were not present in both centers were: Stigma experience, family support, and sex.

Conclusion:

Predictors of treatment adherence vary between the urban and rural treatment centers even within the same senatorial district of a state. Therefore, it is advisable to always determine factors that predicts adherence to ART which would serve as a guide to proper treatment of the patient.
Global preferred practice patterns in manual small incision cataract surgery
Authors: Madhani Charmi Hareshkumar , Trivedi Kinjal Yogeshbhai , Bhagat Purvi Raj
Published: April 2022

Objectives:

Manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS) has become the surgery of choice in developing countries and setups with a high cataract load; being non-inferior to phacoemulsification, with minimum dependency on technology, and a shorter learning curve. There exist high variability and multiple differing personal preferences in its instrumentation and techniques. Through our study, we aimed to analyse different MSICS practice patterns across the globe to be able to summarise the commonly performed variations and carve a path for MSICS training programmes and help novice surgeons learn the state-of-the-art methods.

Materials and Methods:

Ours was an online, questionnaire-based cross-sectional observational study. The Google form was floated among ophthalmologists through social media, globally. The preferences for each step of MSICS from the type of anaesthesia used to post-operative advice were asked and responses analysed.

Results:

Out of 278 respondents, 234 (84.17%) ophthalmologists used peribulbar anesthesia; 214 (77.3%) preferred to do capsulorrhexis first followed by corneoscleral tunnel incision; 145 (52.15%) preferred frown incision; and 152 (54.7%) considered astigmatism management important during tunnel-making. The majority (226 [81.3%]) surgeons used anterior chamber maintainer. Viscoexpression, wire-Vectis, and irrigating Vectis were practiced by 122 (43.9%), 96 (34.5%), and 64 (23%), respectively. As for the intraocular lenses, 175 (62.9%) surgeons preferred non-foldable and non-premium while 65 (23.4%) used multifocal. Viscoimplantation was preferred by 256 (92.1%) surgeons. Only 13 (4.7%) surgeons sutured the tunnel at the end while a subconjunctival antibiotic-steroid injection was used by 166 (59.7%) surgeons.

Conclusion:

Studying the variability in MSICS can help to carve future MSICS training programs and help novice surgeons to better perform the surgery.
Sulfides, Zeolites, and Nanotowers
Authors: Prins Roel , Kogelbauer Andreas , Weber Thomas
Published: April 2022

Three new classes of materials, which we developed and use in our catalytic research, are described. Layered and intercalated sulfides are studied for their use as model compounds for hydrodesulfurization catalysis. Dealuminated zeolites and other mesoporous materials contain mesopores
which enhance diffusion and, thus, the effectiveness of zeolitic materials in liquid-phase reactions. Using lithographic techniques, nanotowers are manufactured from layers of metals and insulators placed on silicon wafers. The nanotowers are studied as model catalysts, especially for investigating
size effects in heterogeneous catalysis.

Published: April 2022

Displays, in many different variations and for a multitude of uses, continue to be an evermore attractive area for industrial activity and academic development. Here, we address the development of polymer-based systems for application in advanced optical devices. More specifically,
we report the fabrication and characterization of photoluminescent polarizers based on uniaxially oriented, conjugated polymers and their application in a new family of photoluminescent liquid-crystal displays with substantially increased brightness, contrast, and efficiency. In another development,
we show that efficient 'color polarizers' can be produced on the basis of oriented polymer-inorganic nano-composites. It is anticipated that these polarizers enable the fabrication of another new family of LCDs in which multiple colors can be displayed on the same pixel.

Although highly (biologically) potent active compounds do not have the dramatic effects of highly reactive chemicals, the potential to damage is similar. The Pharmaceutical Industry routinely has to face the challenges posed with working with highly active compounds.At Cilag AG, Schaffhausen, the risk is managed, before commencing the work, by identifying the dangers through a risk assessment. Once engineering measures have been applied, the residual risk can be managed by assigning appropriate Personal Protective Equipment and monitoring its effectiveness through routine air sampling and medical surveillance programs.In this article, the strategy applied to ensure that the workplace and the environment remain safe when routinely working with highly active substances is described in details. In addition, a glimpse of an innovational approach is given which will revolutionize handling of such compounds in the future.

Published: May 2022

Ionenaustausch ist für die Gewinnung von salzarmem Wasser das meistverbreitete Aufarbeitungsverfahren. Nachteilig ist dabei aber der überstöchiometrische Bedarf an Regenerierchemikalien. Attraktive Alternativen zu den klassischen lonenaustauschverfahren und der Umkehrosmose
sind Elektromembranverfahren wie Elektrodialyse, bzw. Elektroentionisierung (continous deionization, CDI™). Sie eignen sich in der Regel jedoch nur für die Restentsalzung von bereits elektrolytarmem Wasser, da bei höheren Salzgehalten im Rohwasser schon nach kurzer
Betriebsdauer Polarisationseffekte und Ablagerungen an Elektroden und Membranen auftreten. In diesem Bericht wird eine Verfahrensweise beschrieben, mit welcher diese Nachteile aufgrund einer speziellen Hydrodynamik und Prozessführung weitgehend eliminiert werden.

Besides, the study aims to explore the degree of awareness of the safety culture among workers at Jeddah Eye Hospital and explore the leadership role in the Safety Culture at Jeddah Eye Hospital. The study followed the cross- sectional approach in which 350 questionnaires were delivered to hospital employees, with 195 valid responses; 55.7% valid response rate. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to examine the factor structure and see if the composite reliability was significant with a factor loading of >0.5, resulting in an acceptable model fit. according to the results of a one- way ANOVA analysis, physicians have much more unfavourable patient safety culture perceptions and safety performance perceptions than non- physicians. The results of the route analysis demonstrate that leadership conduct has an impact on safety culture and performance in the healthcare industry. Contingency leadership and a favourable patient safety organization culture influenced and improved safety performance. The study also revealed that a well- managed system that combines leadership considerations, hospital staff training courses, and a reliable safety reporting system can improve safety performance.

Published: April 2022

3D-printing has become a fundamental part of research in many areas of investigation since it provides rapid and personalized production of parts that meet very specific user needs. Biosensing is not an exception, and production of electrochemical sensors that can detect a variety of redox mediators and biologically relevant molecules has been widely reported. However, most 3Dprinted electrochemical sensors detailed in the literature rely on big, individual, single-material electrodes that require large sample volumes to perform effectively. Our work exploits multi-material fused filament fabrication 3D-printing to produce a compact electrochemical sensor. The device features a built-in well with a volume of approximately 100 μL where the sample is deposited and analyzed via cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry, and chronoamperometry to assess sensor performance and sensitivity. The integrated 3D-printed platform successfully detects electrochemical activity for hexaammineruthenium (III) chloride and potassium ferricyanide (0.1 mM to 2 mM in 100 mM KCl), dopamine (50 μM to 1 mM in 1xPBS), and glucose via mediator-free and mediated amperometric glucose oxidase enzyme-based sensors (1 mM to 12 mM in 1xPBS), indicating good acceptance of biological modification. These results reveal the exciting potential of multi-material 3D-printing and how it can be used for the rapid development of efficient, small, integrated, personalized electrochemical biosensors.
Hydrogen Bonding Effect on the Oxygen Binding and Activa-tion in Cobalt(III)-peroxo Complexes
Authors: Bakker Rob , Bairagi Abhinav , Tripodi Guilherme L. , Pereverzev Aleksandr Y. , Roithova Jana
Published: April 2022

Cobalt(III)peroxo complexes serve as model metal complexes mediating oxygen activation. We report a systematic study of the effect of the hydrogen bonding on the oxygen binding and on the O-O bond activation within the cobalt(III)-peroxo complexes. To this end, we prepared a series of tris(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amine based cobalt(III)peroxo complexes having either none, one, two or three amino groups in the secondary coordination sphere. The hydrogen bonding between the amino group(s) and the peroxo ligand was investigated within the isolated complexes in the gas phase using helium tag-ging IR photodissociation spectroscopy, energy-resolved collision induced dissociation experiments and density func-tional theory. The results show that the hydrogen bonding stabilizes the cobalt(III)-peroxo core, but the effect is on the order of units of kcal mol-1. Introduction of the first amino group to the secondary coordination sphere has the largest stabilization effect; more amino groups do not change the results significantly. The amino group can transfer a hydrogen atom to the peroxo ligands which results in the O-O bond cleavage. This process is thermodynamically favored over the O2 elimination, but entropically disfavored.

El proyecto de investigación consiste en el diseño y construcción de un prototipo de un sistema de seguimiento solar de dos ejes, el cual se basa en la automatización mediante un software de programación Arduino IDE con fotorresistores para posicionamiento del módulo fotovoltaico, con el fin de optimizar la captación de radiación solar. El resultado del desarrollo de la prueba experimental ha permitido concluir que la mayor generación de energía se ha logrado usando un sensor ACS712, con el que se obtuvieron mediciones de mayor radiación solar entre las 10:00 a. m. y las 5:00 p. m. Asimismo, entre las 11:45 a. m. y la 1:00 p. m., se produce una corriente que oscila entre 0,60 A y 0,62 A lográndose el rendimiento óptimo. Con el sistema de posición fija se alcanza 0,60 A a las 10:45 a. m. y se mantiene constante entre 0,60 A y 0,62 A hasta la 1:45 p.m. La potencia promedio obtenida para el panel en posición fija es de 5,37 W durante 7 horas, mientras que al aplicar el sistema de seguimiento solar se alcanzó 6,1 W, con lo que se produce un incremento del 13,67 %.

Published: April 2022

INTRODUCTION: Haller’s cells arise with the pneumatization of the lateral crus. Although Haller’s cells are anatomical variations in the development of the nose and paranasal sinuses, they are found responsible for the patient’s symptoms and are thus clinically significant. AIM: The purpose of the present study is to emphasize the appearance of Haller’s cells on panoramic radiographs and their clinical correlation. MATERIALS AND METHOD: OPG scans of 700 subjects of either gender in the age range of 16 to 60 years were evaluated for the presence of Haller’s cells and retrospectively patient’s clinical features were seen. Gender, age, and clinical relevance were observed. A Chi-square test was used to evaluate the prevalence of Haller’s cell in panoramic radiograph (OPG), its occurrence in males and females, and its clinical correlation. The software used for statistical analysis was SPSS version 21.0 and the p-value, of less than 0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: Haller’s cells were detected in 95 scans of 700 OPGs, the overall prevalence of Haller’s cells was 13.5 % with an overall p-value less than 0.05 rendering it significant. Of the 95 cases with Haller’s cells, 55 (57.89%) were in males and 40 (42.10%) were found in females. The p-value was 0.32 (> 0.05) rendering it non-significant. CONCLUSION: . More prospective analysis with thorough medical history and examination, with the larger group of the population, might further confirm the appearance of Haller’s cells on panoramic radiographs.

Published: April 2022

В работе исследуется смешанный режим работы РЛС, включающий циклическую генерацию и прием отраженных импульсных сигналов разной длительности на разной несущей частоте. В таком режиме по техническим причинам происходит потеря информации об отдельных принятых импульсах. Предложен алгоритм интерполяции значений сигнала в потерянных импульсах. Алгоритм включает в себя устранение неоднозначности определения радиальной скорости цели из-за потери информации.

The paper investigates the mixed mode of operation of the radar, including cyclic generation and reception of reflected pulse signals different durations at different carrier frequencies. In this mode for technical reasons, there is a loss of information about the individual received pulses. An algorithm for interpolation of signal values in lost pulses is proposed.
Reconstructing the Data Crime Governance Model from the Perspective of Criminal Compliance
Authors: Wang Qianshi
Published: April 2022

With the advent of the risk society and the era of big data, criminal law must respond to data crime in a more proactive manner. The traditional way of conviction and sentencing adopted by the current criminal law for data crime can no longer meet the requirements of the times. Compliance should be introduced into criminal law to improve the governance system of data crime. There are three ways to incorporate compliance into criminal law: (1) as the exemption cause of enterprise crime; (2) as the general circumstances of sentencing in the General Provisions of Criminal Law of the People’s Republic of China; (3) as the special circumstances of sentencing in the Specific Provisions of Criminal Law of the People’s Republic of China. The latter two approaches are more suited to China’s national conditions.

Critical Thinking in the Teaching of University English
Authors: Qu Shuyang
Published: April 2022

Critical thinking is a fundamental skill for today’s college students, since it aids in the acquisition of knowledge, correct judgements, and self-adjustment. However, traditional English teaching in China only focuses on the development of students’ language skills and the inculcation of language knowledge, rather than the cultivation of students’ critical thinking skills. This study addresses the aforementioned problem and discusses the definition and significance of critical thinking. Subsequently, it analyzes the causes of L2 students’ ineffective critical thinking and proposes several procedures for the training of students in English reading, listening, speaking, and writing.

Published: April 2022

The construction of course-based ideological and political education is currently in its full swing. With both instrumentality and humanity, college English is the ideal carrier of ideological and political education. College English education should keep pace with the era, integrate with ideological and political education based on traditional Chinese culture, and construct a teaching system with Chinese characteristics. It is necessary to strengthen ideological and political orientation, reasonably integrate the teaching content, comprehensively enhance the quality of teachers, and actively innovate the teaching method, so as to further improve the effect of course-based ideological and political practice as well as realize the fundamental task of cultivating students through moral cultivation in higher education.

Dinámica y debate político en el Ecuador garciano
Authors: Buriano Castro Ana
Published: April 2022

Ana Buriano es, sin duda, una de las más grandes ecuatorianistas de lo que va del siglo. Sus trabajos son grandes aportes a la historiografía política latinoamericana y representan una renovación investigativa para el caso ecuatoriano, especialmente sobre el siglo XIX. Sus trabajos permiten la aproximación a nuevos usos de fuentes periodísticas, una interpretación más crítica de los pactos políticos decimonónicos, el análisis de procesos históricos en lógica transnacional y la superación de la anticuada lectura dicotómica que dividía la lucha política en Ecuador entre liberales y conservadores.

Esta ponencia fue presentada en la Embajada de Ecuador en la ciudad de México en 2012 a pedido de funcionarios ecuatorianos y se trata de una panorámica sobre algunas propuestas de Ana sobre el garcianismo. El texto fue escrito después de que se publicaran los libros Navegando en la borrasca: construir la nación de la fe en el mundo de la impiedad, Ecuador 1860-1875 (2008) y El “espíritu nacional” del Ecuador católico (2011). Sin embargo, también se trata de una intervención en la que Ana inserta algunas de las hipótesis e ideas que desarrolló en otras publicaciones posteriores a 2012. Por otro lado, la ponencia también permite una breve aproximación a las circunstancias en las que la autora empezó a investigar al garcianismo como tema y al Ecuador como marco espacial. En otras palabras, la historiadora nos hace partícipes de su experiencia y nos deja atisbar su laboratorio.

Ecuador desde una teoría social e histórica latinoamericana
Authors: Velasco Herrera Viviana
Published: April 2022

Este artículo explora el trabajo del historiador ecuatoriano Juan Maiguashca y los debates interdisciplinarios que ha generado desde la historia, la sociología y la ciencia política. Se revisan tres de sus textos fundamentales que articularon una narrativa de interpretación de los procesos políticos más importantes del Ecuador y de América Latina en los siglos XIX y XX. A través del planteamiento histórico y conceptual realizado por Maiguashca para describir, analizar y calificar los fenómenos sociales más representativos de la política ecuatoriana y de la región andina, se propone una mirada interdisciplinaria para comprender fenómenos y actores sociales recurrentes en la formación de lo político, en clave regional. Se evalúan sus aportes y posibilidades, y se atisban las dificultades que propone su análisis complejo de la realidad y que han abierto nuevas agendas de investigación.
