Traffic as a Construct for Fair Use Consideration
Authors: Wang Huiyao
Published: June 2024

With the rise of the short video industry, parodic works have rapidly gained popularity due to their humorous and satirical nature, posing new challenges for copyright protection of original works. These parodic creations in short videos are often derivative works aimed at attracting traffic, which can potentially damage the market value of the original works and lead to copyright disputes. Moreover, the user-generated content (UGC) mechanisms of short video platforms, while promoting content diversity, also complicate copyright enforcement. Situations where parodic works exceed fair use criteria include aspects like the cultural consumption nature of the usage purpose and the extent of quotation beyond appropriate limits. From legislative and judicial perspectives, expanding the range of factors considered for fair use, promoting high-quality production by short video creators, and fostering positive development in the short video parody sector require attention to the role of traffic in fair use determinations and its impact on the market value of works. In the short video industry, the criteria for determining fair use are under strain and need continual refinement in copyright law. By establishing a fair mechanism for benefit distribution, raising copyright awareness among creators, and enhancing the responsibility awareness of the audience, a better balance between the interests of parodies and original works can be achieved, thus promoting the healthy development of the cultural industry.

Published: June 2024

The economic hypothesis has been criticized since its birth. After realizing the many defects in the hypothesis of self-interested economic people, many scholars not only put forward various doubts, put forward the "Smith paradox", but also gave many reasonable explanations, believing that the "Smith paradox" does not exist. This paper tries to interpret the "Smith paradox" systematically from the perspective of "moral sentiment" through the concept of "situation", and tries to construct a new theoretical framework to integrate the different social preferences in different situations with the system design, so as to optimize the individual welfare and overall social welfare.

A STUDY ON IMPACT OF FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT ON BALANCE OF PAYMENTS
Authors:   CMRIT, Medchal, Rekha Dr.G.Sai
Published: June 2024

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) exerts a multifaceted influence on a country's Balance of Payments (BOP), encompassing both the capital and current accounts. In the capital account, FDI inflows represent crucial long-term investments by foreign entities into domestic assets, spanning from establishing new ventures to acquiring existing businesses or funding infrastructure projects. These inflows augment the country's capital base, providing essential funding for development endeavors, particularly vital for emerging economies. Additionally, FDI facilitates technology transfer and managerial expertise, fostering innovation and enhancing productivity. Consequently, this bolsters the competitiveness of domestic industries, potentially leading to increased exports and improved trade balances. However, FDI outflows, in the form of profits, dividends, and royalties repatriated by foreign investors, impact the income account of the current BOP, constituting outflows. Furthermore, FDI's influence extends to exchange rates, where significant inflows may lead to currency appreciation, affecting trade dynamics.

Obstructive uropathy is defined as the structural or functional interruption of urinary outflow at any level in the urinary tract. It is regarded as one of the most prevalent causes of acute kidney injury (AKI), accounting for 5%–10% of cases. Acute severe obstruction of the urinary tract is a potentially threatening situation for the kidneys and therefore requires prompt identification and management to relieve obstruction. The aim of the present article is to review and synthesize available evidence on obstructive uropathy, providing a clinical guideline for clinicians. A literature review on obstructive uropathy in the context of AKI was performed, focusing on the least clarified aspects regarding diagnosis and management. Recent literature searching was conducted in English and top-level evidence articles including systematic reviews, metanalyses and large series were prioritized. Acute obstruction of the urinary tract is a diagnostic and therapeutical challenge that may lead to important clinical complications together with direct structural and hemodynamic damage to the kidney. Early recognition of the leading cause and its exact location is essential to ensure prompt urinary drainage together with the most suitable drainage technique selection. A multidisciplinary approach, including urologists, nephrologists, and other medical specialties, is best suited to correctly manage concomitant hemodynamic changes, fluid and electrolyte imbalances, and other related issues. Obstructive uropathy is one of the leading causes of AKI. Recognition of patients suitable for early diversion and feasibility or adequate selection of the indicated technique is sometimes challenging. A thorough understanding of the physiopathology behind the development of urinary obstruction is vital for correct diagnosis and management.
Severe acute kidney injury due to oxalate crystal induced severe interstitial nephritis: A case report
Authors: Lathiya Maulik K , Errabelli Praveen , Roy Sasmit , Mareedu Neeharik
Published: June 2024

BACKGROUND

Acute kidney injury (AKI) due to interstitial nephritis is a known condition primarily attributed to various medications. While medication-induced interstitial nephritis is common, occurrences due to non-pharmacological factors are rare. This report presents a case of severe AKI triggered by intratubular oxalate crystal deposition, leading to interstitial nephritis. The aim is to outline the case and its management, emphasizing the significance of recognizing uncommon causes of interstitial nephritis.

CASE SUMMARY

A 71-year-old female presented with stroke-like symptoms, including weakness, speech difficulties, and cognitive impairment. Chronic hypertension had been managed with hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) for over two decades. Upon admission, severe hypokalemia and AKI were noted, prompting discontinuation of HCTZ and initiation of prednisolone for acute interstitial nephritis. Further investigations, including kidney biopsy, confirmed severe acute interstitial nephritis with oxalate crystal deposits as the underlying cause. Despite treatment, initial renal function showed minimal improvement. However, with prednisolone therapy and supportive measures, her condition gradually improved, highlighting the importance of comprehensive management.

CONCLUSION

This case underscores the importance of a thorough diagnostic approach in identifying and addressing uncommon causes of interstitial nephritis. The occurrence of interstitial nephritis due to oxalate crystal deposition, especially without typical risk factors, emphasizes the need for vigilance in clinical practice.

Authors: Utomo Tranggono Yudo
Published: June 2024

Hemorrhagic stroke is caused by rupture of blood vessels in the brain, which causes blood to leak into the brain tissue. As a result, the oxygen supply to brain cells is disrupted because blood cannot flow through the ruptured blood vessels. There are two main options for treating hemorrhagic stroke, namely surgical therapy and conservative therapy. The aim of this study was to compare the results of surgical therapy and conservative therapy in hemorrhagic stroke patients at RSUD Dr. Chasbulah Abdul Majid Bekasi City during the period January to December 2022. The type of research used by researchers is retrospective descriptive research. Data were collected from medical records of patients who had undergone surgical therapy and conservative therapy for hemorrhagic stroke. The statistical analysis used is descriptive statistics using frequency analysis. Research findings showed that more patients showed improved prognosis after using conservative therapy, with a percentage reaching 85.5%. Meanwhile, for patients who underwent operative therapy, the percentage of improvement in prognosis was 65.4%. It can be concluded that the percentage of improvement in patient prognosis after receiving conservative therapy is higher than those receiving operative therapy.

Published: June 2024

Vocabulary acquisition is a fundamental element of mastering the English language, necessitating a comprehensive lexicon that evolves through experiential learning to facilitate accurate comprehension and production of language. The current study examined the impact of Total Physical Response (TPR) tasks on the vocabulary acquisition of Thai primary school students, with a particular focus on the definition of words. It also explored the students’ attitudes towards using TPR tasks for vocabulary learning. The TPR tasks were designed to engage three of the human senses—visual, auditory, and tactile—by incorporating multisensory tasks. Employing a mixed-methods research design, the study involved 27 second graders from a primary school in northeastern Thailand. The research methodology utilized three instruments. From a quantitative perspective, the Receptive Word Knowledge Test (RWKT) and the Productive Word Knowledge Test (PWKT) were administered to assess the students’ vocabulary knowledge before and after the intervention within a single-group pretest-posttest framework. Qualitatively, a focus group interview was conducted to gain deeper insight into the students’ attitudes towards participation in TPR activities. The quantitative data indicated a significant enhancement in both receptive and productive vocabulary knowledge among the participants. Furthermore, the qualitative findings highlighted the advantages of TPR tasks, with students expressing increased enthusiasm and competitive spirit and a shared willingness and pleasure in vocabulary learning through interactive tasks and peer interaction. In conclusion, this study corroborates the efficacy of TPR tasks in significantly advancing Thai primary school students’ receptive and productive vocabulary knowledge.

The integration of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) into instructional design is pivotal for teachers. This intricate knowledge framework encompasses the interplay between technology, pedagogy, and subject matter, profoundly impacting the multifaceted aspects of student learning, encompassing knowledge acquisition, skill development, and the cultivation of desirable attributes. This research at hand adopts an exploratory approach, examining two sample groups: 1) Science teachers from secondary schools under the Northeastern Region of Thailand during the academic year 2565–2566, totaling 124 individuals, and 2) Secondary school students receiving instruction in science-related subjects from the aforementioned teachers, with a minimum of one classroom involved. Data collection tools include a survey on TPACK, a scientific competency assessment, and semi-structured interviews. Statistical analysis employs mean, standard deviation, and content analysis. Testing of hypothesis uses One-Way Analysis of Variance (One-Way ANOVA). The study reveals that students taught by science teachers with varying levels of TPACK exhibit statistically significant differences in scientific competency at a 0.05 significance level. When comparing scientific competency with TPACK levels of teachers, statistically significant differences at the 0.05 level are found in two pairs: 1) the Adapting level and the Advancing level and 2) the Exploring level and the Advancing level.

Does forensic treatment work? A compilation of research on treatment effectiveness in Dutch clinical forensic care

The effectiveness of treatment in forensic clinical care has not been convincingly proven despite the fact that society demands and expects it to be so. They are often surprised that we cannot state definitively if forensic care is effective. However, it is complicated to properly study treatment effectiveness. Three recent international meta-analyses tentatively concluded that treatment in forensic care leads to positive outcomes, especially when multimodal treatment is offered. Most studies that were included in these meta-analyses, however, had serious methodological limitations and more research is needed to make definitive statements about treatment effectiveness. As part of the ‘Learning project’ (in Dutch: ‘de Lerende Praktijk’) of the Expertise center for Forensic Psychiatry, we have examined what research on effectiveness in Dutch forensic clinical care has been conducted in recent years. The aim of this compilation is to provide an overview of the results and to learn from them for future research, both in terms of content and type of research. All forensic care facilities that provide clinical care were approached to provide published effectiveness studies since 2005. In total, we had 70 documents, including 55 studies from which we subsequently selected studies based on a number of characteristics, such as purpose and study population. In total, six randomized clinical trials (RCTs) examined the effectiveness of treatment in comparison to a control group. Of these six RCTs, methodological quality was assessed using the Mixed Method Appraisal Tool, version 2018. The quality was generally judged to be adequate. In addition, there were several studies that, despite not having the explicit goal of measuring treatment effectiveness, are interesting to discuss. This article summarizes the main findings and provides recommendations for future research.

Too nuts to walk loose: The image of forensic care, professionals, and patients in Dutch fiction, films, and series

A forensic patient develops a relationship with his therapist, which allows him to escape from the clinic and reoffend, after which he will once again be detained in the clinic. This is a common plot in Dutch fictional films and series depicting forensic care, while in reality such stories are highly exceptional. Therefore the image of forensic care becomes one-sided, negative and sensationalist, which is of importance as American research shows that the impact of drama on public opinion may be higher than that of news media. The portrayal of patients, professionals and the system of forensic care as a whole in fictional films and series can be classified in frames, which are known from research on (social) media or research on fiction abroad. This exploratory study aims to answer the question what frames are used for forensic care in Dutch fictional films and series. Sixteen productions from the last twenty years have been found and analyzed on the basis of general characteristics, including the plot, as well as the frames used to portray forensic care. Most of the frames used are negative and based on exceptional cases. Patients are portrayed as a ‘wild beast’ or ‘master manipulator’ who have committed capital crimes and/or serious sexual offenses. Most professionals are portrayed as naive, incompetent ‘cuddlers’ and ‘seducible’. Because of this combination the system is portrayed as having ‘more holes than a Swiss cheese’ with a lack of attention for victims. Influencing this image is more important than ever for creating societal support. The escaped forensic patient should make room for the patient who will no longer severely reoffend, which fortunately is a much more frequent character in reality.

Tussen wet en werkelijkheid – Het maatschappelijk perspectief bij de Inspectie van het Onderwijs

Veel toezichthouders hechten aan een sterke maatschappelijke oriëntatie. Ze vinden de klassieke handhavende taken te eenzijdig en niet altijd stroken met het publieke belang. Tegelijkertijd wordt in de toezichtliteratuur gewaarschuwd voor een te sterke maatschappelijke oriëntatie. Toezicht functioneert binnen de democratische rechtstaat en daarom wordt gewezen op het belang van het legaliteitsbeginsel. Op het eerste gezicht lijken deze twee principes – de maatschappelijke oriëntatie en het legaliteitsbeginsel – moeilijk te verenigen. Toezichthouders hebben echter diverse mogelijkheden om beide principes recht te doen. In deze bijdrage Uit het veld geven we enkele voorbeelden hoe we dit doen als Inspectie van het Onderwijs.

Las figuras clásicas del canon fantástico han consolidado una serie de características fundamentales que las definen tanto desde lo estético como desde lo narrativo, pasando por lo ético. Esa aparente estabilidad se puede ver alterada cuando dichas figuras son presentadas bajo una forma infantil. El presente artículo quiere poner de manifiesto esa reconfiguración, a través de cuatro figuras emblemáticas de ese canon (el demonio, el licántropo, el monstruo de Frankenstein y el vampiro), y de sus correspondientes apariciones, de apariencia infantil, en un grupo de formas expresivas interesante por su variedad y pluralidad: un cómic manga, una serie de una plataforma de streaming, un videojuego y una película europea de terror.
Narrativas del akelarre: condiciones de posibilidad para lo fantástico en la relectura feminista de la caza de brujas
Authors: De Benito Mesa Iris
Published: June 2024

Este trabajo pretende adentrarse en el modo en que la naturaleza, en distintas formas, está incorporada a nuestro imaginario compartido sobre la brujería. La propuesta se inscribe en la línea de una investigación más amplia, que explora las imbricaciones entre el imaginario de la caza de brujas y los discursos feministas contemporáneos. Desde este punto de partida, nos interesa explorar qué géneros textuales se activan en las narrativas de la brujería, concretamente los que tratan del aquelarre como acontecimiento que encumbra el poder de la bruja, y qué cabida tiene lo fantástico en una pugna discursiva que interroga lo verosímil, lo mágico y, en definitiva, los límites de lo real. En nuestro estudio, partiremos de la historiografía tradicional sobre la caza de brujas para llegar a la crítica feminista, para desde ella ahondar en sus implicaciones sociales y políticas, para pensar en la bruja como construcción discursiva vinculada fuertemente a la naturaleza en diversas formas.

The Ottoman Empire entered the 19th century under pressure to preserve its existence against Western powers. Dismissing the illusions of past superiority, the Ottoman court acknowledged that reforms had to be instituted to end the Empire’s long-time stagnation and instability. The Tanzimat reform movement was the most significant reaction of the Ottoman Empire to the Western powers during the period between 1839 and 1876. During the Tanzimat period, all aspects of the empire were reshaped in a new way with certain success. Through Tanzimat, the Ottoman Empire continued to preserve its position as one of the major powers of the European political order, re-established its autonomy in domestic affairs, and successfully defended its sovereignty in many disputed regions with considerable might against a powerful emerging West.

In this study, initially scoring at 2.15, the objective was to enhance students’ English vocabulary for speaking through a role-playing learning strategy, using a Collaborative Classroom Action Research approach. The methodology involved stages of planning, action, observation, and reflection in distinct cycles, each comprising two meetings. Data were collected using methods like speaking skill evaluations, questionnaires on role-playing practice, and field notes. The participants were fourth-semester students of the D3 English Study Program at Madiun State Polytechnic. Notably, student scores in speaking vocabulary improved across cycles, from 2.42 in the first to 3.15 in the third, meeting the success criterion of 3.01 and demonstrating the effectiveness of the role-playing strategy in the learning process.

Published: June 2024

O mercado da carne ovina é diretamente afetado pela informalidade da cadeia produtiva, pela cultura sensorial antiga criada pelo consumo de carne de baixa qualidade e pela baixa oferta, o que torna seu preço menos acessível. Com a gourmetização da carne e as grandes quantias de carne ovina importada do Uruguai, surge uma oportunidade de crescimento para o setor no país, e conhecer o perfil do consumidor atual é essencial para o futuro da ovinocultura. Diante desse cenário, o presente estudo objetivou analisar o perfil dos consumidores de carne ovina na região centro oeste paraense por meio de um questionário disponibilizado de forma remota. Dos 179 partícipes aptos 90,1% já consumiram carne ovina, destes 72,5% desejam aumentar a frequência e quantidade de carne consumida. Entre eles 56,9% consomem de forma anual sendo que o preço é o fator de maior impedimento do maior consumo, 22,7%, seguido do acesso 21%. A principal fonte de compra de carne entre os partícipes foi direto com o produtor rural, 70 entrevistados. Do total 91,5% afirmam estar dispostos a pagar mais por uma carne com melhor qualidade e maior segurança higiênico sanitária.

O objetivo deste estudo foi reunir, com base na literatura atual, fatores que contribuem para o estresse, depressão e ansiedade em agentes comunitários de saúde no Brasil.  O presente trabalho discute a importância dos Agentes Comunitários de Saúde (ACS) na Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS) e os desafios enfrentados por esses profissionais. Destacam-se a falta de reconhecimento, as condições precárias de trabalho, o excesso de burocracia e a exposição a situações de violência como fatores contribuintes para esses problemas. A revisão integrativa de literatura aborda estudos que analisam a prevalência e os fatores associados a esses problemas entre os ACS, destacando a sobrecarga física e emocional, a falta de suporte e o desgaste profissional. Para a construção desta revisão, foi adotada a metodologia Grounded Theory, a qual permite a aproximação e imersão dos dados como ponto de partida para a elucidação de um fenômeno. A metodologia predominante nos estudos utilizados nesta pesquisa foi a de coleta de dados transversal, seguida pela metodologia qualitativa. Conclui-se, portanto, que é necessário a adoção de políticas de saúde voltadas para a promoção da qualidade de vida desses profissionais e a melhoria das condições de trabalho na APS.

Published: June 2024

O presente artigo trata do Novo Ensino Médio (NEM), que traz mudanças quanto à flexibilidade do currículo e à ampliação de carga horária, com foco na percepção dos professores (em função de gestão ou docência) em relação ao desenho do NEM e, notadamente, quanto a lógica de itinerários flexíveis e pela perspectiva da construção colaborativa, a fim de problematizar o como tais atores da política sentem-se (ou não) preparados. O NEM afeta a todo o Ensino Médio, mas de forma mais intensa as escolas participantes da Política de Fomento às Escolas de Ensino Médio em Tempo Integral (PEMTI), sendo que o escopo da pesquisa, que decorre de estudo de doutorado, parte do universo das escolas estaduais de ensino médio, com imersão em uma escola participante da PEMTI. A base teórica parte, para tratar das fluidas interações de múltiplos atores e interesses, tem suporte no tripé teórico que assume o  Poder (Foucault) na Modernidade Líquida (Bauman), na perspectiva da Complexidade (Morin). A metodologia combina análise documental, questionários com escolas e estudo de caso com imersão em instituição de Brasília/DF, utilizando técnicas quantitativas e qualitativas, interpretadas pela Análise de Discurso Crítica (Fairclough). Nos resultados da análise documental e das entrevistas realizadas com gestores e professores, percebemos que a existência de proposta de uma nova abordagem educativa, com reorganização da dinâmica escolar, causou aflição e postura reativa de grande parte dos professores, sem que seja possível estabelecer um perfil específico entre eles. Por outro lado, também é sinaliza a expectativa de melhorias, e relatos de sentimento de desafio e convite a novas experiências.
