Evaluation of Serum Magnesium Levels in Patients With the Diagnosis of Depressive Disorder Applied to a Psychiatry Clinic: A Retrospective Study
Authors: ALTUNÖZ Sinan , BAYKAN Hayriye , BAYKAN Özgür
Published: July 2023

Objective: The role of magnesium in the pathophysiology of depression has increased the interest in magnesium. However, contradictory results regarding whether the magnesium levels decrease in depression are reported in the literature. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to evaluate serum magnesium levels in patients diagnosed with depressive disorder who applied to the psychiatry outpatient clinic Materials and Methods: The data of 1013 patients who were diagnosed with depressive disorder and whose serum magnesium levels were measured were included in the study by retrospectively scanning the data of the patients who had applied to the Psychiatry outpatient clinic of Balıkesir University Faculty of Medicine between July 2020 and July 2022. Since the serum glucose, GGT and creatinine values were above their reference ranges in 183 of 1013 patients included in the study, the data of these patients were excluded from the analysis. Results: Serum magnesium values of 12.9% of female and 9.1% of male patients were below the reference values (1.9-2.7 mg/dl). Total mean ( ±SD) magnesium value was statistically significantly different from those of female and male patient groups ( 2.02±0.15 mg/dl vs 2.01±0.16 mg/dl and 2.04±0.15 mg/dl, and P

Safe and effective use of cabozantinib and nivolumab in stabilizing disease progression of tissue sarcoma after multiple lines of standard therapy
Authors: D Vu My Linh , Berman Andrew , Kao Erica , Stoll Kristin , Lee Lauren
Published: July 2023

Introduction: Soft-tissue sarcomas (STS) are a rare and varied group of tumors with limited treatment options. In recent years, immune checkpoint inhibitors have demonstrated efficacy in an increasing number of solid tumors. Nivolumab, a PD1-inhibitor, demonstrates improved overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in renal cell carcinoma, melanoma, and gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). The tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), cabozantinib, demonstrates an antitumor effect in osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma.

Case Series: Here we describe two patients with recurrent and refractory STS. Both patients failed multiple lines of conventional therapy including neoadjuvant radiation, surgical resection, and palliative chemotherapy before achieving partial response with combination cabozantinib and nivolumab.

Conclusion: These cases demonstrate the safety and efficacy of using combination nivolumab and cabozantinib in treatment of STS warranting further investigation of immunotherapy treatment.
The meaning distributions on different levels of granularity
Authors: Yih Tsy , Liu Haitao
Published: July 2023

The meaning distributions of certain linguistic forms generally follow a Zipfian distribution. However, since the meanings can be observed and classified on different levels of granularity, it is thus interesting to ask whether their distributions on different levels can be fitted by the same model and whether the parameters are the same. In this study, we investigate three quasi-prepositions in Shanghainese, a dialect of Wu Chinese, and test whether the meaning distributions on two levels of granularity can be fitted by the same model and whether the parameters are close. The results first show that the three models proposed by modern quantitative linguists can both achieve a good fit for all cases, while both the exponential (EXP) model and the right-truncated negative binomial (RTBN) models behave better than the modified right-truncated Zipf-Alekseev distribution (MRTZA), in terms of the consistency of the goodness of fit, parameter change, rationality, and simplicity. Second, the parameters of the distributions on the two levels and the curves are not exactly the same or even close to each other. This has supported a weak view of the concept of ‘scaling’ in complex sciences. Finally, differences are found to lie between the distributions on the two levels. The fine-grained meaning distributions are more right-skewed and more non-linear. This is attributed to the openness of the categories of systems. The finer semantic differentiation behaves like systems with open set of categories, while the coarse-grained meaning distribution resembles those having a close set of few categories.
Diaspora in the context of the economic development of the countries of origin
Authors: Filip Nelli , Branaşco Natalia
Published: July 2023

In the context of globalization, migration processes have a significant impact on the formation of the modern international system. In bilateral interstate relations, the diaspora acts as a connecting link. The policy of the state of residence in relation to the diaspora can influence foreign policy decisions, and is also an indicator of the attitude towards the homeland of the diaspora. States can use the resource of the diaspora for the realization of national interests, for example, in establishing relations with foreign partners. In this case, the diaspora provides an economic, cultural and linguistic presence. The diaspora is directly involved in the life of the host society and has the opportunity to create a positive image of their homeland, the level of participation in this is not only state, but can also be of a private nature.
Analysis of the evolution of the globalization index 2000-2019

Published: July 2023

Globalization is not just a term but a process of global economic evolution. The process of globalization is initiated by the perspective of international economic conditions. During globalization, invariably, there are effects that may be favorable to the strong and less favorable to the small, in this category including those with limited economic opportunities, but also includes countries that do not have a large technological development, but have of mineral resources, primarily and other special nature. In this article, we have highlighted the main effects produced over time, which, although not treated as an effect of globalization, are in line with the entry of large multinational corporations. From here, the effects that are borne by those categorized small appear. In parallel, the authors investigated and found some evolutions even on the Romanian scene that are similar to the great globalization. Globalization has also influenced the evolution of GDP because due to the relations between states, trade represents almost 50% of the world's GDP. Globalization could pose a direct threat to the traditions of states to the detriment of cultural diversity and the lifestyle of citizens. This article aims at the evolutionary analysis of the globalization index in the period 2000-2019, focusing on the last part of the interval. Using statistical data, a comparison was made between several states that have been and will be true poles of power at the international level, especially in the context of globalization.
Analysis of the Republic of Moldova’s foreign trade vulnerabilities from the point of view of the export and import structures of products
Authors: Diavor Mircea

Pandemia de COVID-19 a testat vulnerabilitatea economiilor și a lanțurilor de aprovizionare din întreaga lume. Întreruperile în aceste lanțuri de valori globale pot afecta exportul si importul anumitor produse esențiale, cauzând daune economiei și societății Republicii Moldova. Pentru a înțelege care sunt sursele vulnerabilității comerțului exterior al Republicii Moldova, vom aplica o analiză cantitativă privind structura pe produse a exportului și importului țării pe baza modelului Herfindahl-Hirschman Index. Rezultatele analizei oferă informații suplimentare referitoare la originea și posibilitățile de diminuare a vulnerabilității comerțului exterior al Republicii Moldova.
The importance of intercultural competence development in higher education
Authors: Mămăligă Alla
Published: July 2023

Looking back in time, history shows us, by the fact that no society has lasted for more than 100 years without generating a war, that we are facing a problem. Doesn't it seem hilarious, because everyone knows this, and we take it for granted? It is here that we have the hint that since the world has existed, there has never been a healthy society. In order to be able to build a healthy intercultural society, strong collaboration and less competition are needed, or a too competitive style between societies brings division, where everyone fights for the supremacy of their own culture. These struggles are the result of many smaller problems that have not been properly managed and solved, usually over several years, which later turned into mass disorder and have led to wars. Consequently, this paper describes some key concepts that stand out which not being properly managed and developed or their lack lead to the destruction of a culture, a society. Thus, we teachers, are the ones in the first line, who can bring to the attention of our disciples these major cultural problems, in order to build a healthy intercultural society in our country and abroad. Through the method of analysis and comparison of several papers and opinions, a personal opinion emerged regarding this current topic, in the context of Europeanization and globalization of economies.

ESG and sustainability: the impact of the pillar social
Authors: Amaral Melissa Ribeiro do Amaral , Willerding Inara Vieira Antunes , Lapolli Édis Mafra
Published: July 2023

This study focused to understand the impact of the social pillar of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) practices on the sustainability of organizations. A systematic review of the literature was carried out and the analysis of these articles revealed that in recent years investors have shown a growing interest in ESG, guided by financial value. ESG data, scientifically grounded and focused on investments, offers greater transparency to investors, but faces challenges in defining metrics due to the distinct nature of the three pillars. Companies with better ESG performance also contribute to community development. However, the social dimension of ESG has received less attention than the environmental and economic dimensions. Human-centric organizations that use ESG practices make an impact on the environment by implementing sustainable measures that reduce health risks and workload. In the social sphere, labor management, diversity and inclusion programs increase satisfaction and productivity at work. In corporate governance, improved strategies should consider employees' occupational stress and gender diversity in senior management and boards, as it plays a key role in ESG disclosure and performance. There are gaps in the literature regarding the three ESG pillars, especially regarding the social dimension and diversities. The lack of academic consensus on the impact of engaging in ESG practices indicates the need for more studies and empirical research to advance knowledge about ESG and sustainability in organizations. Overcoming these limitations can allow for a better understanding and effective implementation of ESG practices, boosting organizational sustainability.

The Effects of Gamification On Student Motivation And Achievement In Learning English As A Foreign Language In Higher Education
Authors: Huseinović Lamija
Published: July 2023

Gamification has grown tremendously in popularity and is now widely used in various fields including information and communication technology (ICT), healthcare, marketing, education and business. Its core principle revolves around the integration of elements from games into non-game environments with the ultimate goal of shaping behavior, enhancing motivation, and fostering increased engagement (Caponetto, 2014). The main aim of this study is to investigate the impact of gamification on student motivation and academic performance in the specific context of teaching English as a foreign language (EFL) at higher education institutions in Bosnia and Herzegovina. To conduct this study, a cohort of 202 students attending both private and public universities in Bosnia and Herzegovina was carefully selected using targeted snowball sampling techniques. The questionnaire distributed to the participants included 57 items from various areas, including academic achievement, frequency and proficiency in using language learning apps, motivation and attitudes towards app-based language learning, and perceived improvements in listening, speaking, reading and writing skills This is attributed to the use of apps to learn the English language (ELL). To analyze the gathered data, descriptive statistics, tests for normality, reliability analysis, and linear regression were employed. The results of the study indicate a significant impact of gamification strategies on students’ motivation to learn English as a foreign language, as well as their overall success in EFL learning and academic achievement. In higher education settings, the inclusion of games has been shown to have a positive impact on students’ listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. In addition, gamification contributes to the motivation of the students and thus increases their academic performance. The integration of games into education is expected to continue to evolve and lead to transformative changes in curricula, teaching methods and learning models. Consequently, acquiring ICT skills among academic staff is crucial to effectively mentoring students and ensuring successful educational experiences.
Ángel Guido, rector de la Universidad Nacional del Litoral (1948-1950): la pregunta por la emancipación en algunos de sus textos olvidados
Authors: Antequera María Florencia
Published: July 2023

Algunos textos olvidados –esto es, poco o nulamente transitados por la crítica–, discursos proferidos por el arquitecto e ingeniero Ángel Guido (Rosario, 1896-1960) con motivo de su asunción como rector de la Universidad Nacional del Litoral (1948-1950) y un ramillete de materiales provenientes de sus disquisiciones estéticas, históricas y artísticas, sirven para examinar un interrogante fructífero –por productivo y recurrente– en su escritura y en su ideal americanista: la búsqueda de la emancipación. En efecto, al poner en diálogo materiales heteróclitos de su producción intelectual de fines de la década del cuarenta –textos y algunas imágenes– entendemos que estas textualidades de diverso registro y calibre bien pueden echar luz no solo sobre su singular búsqueda de un arte emancipado, sino que también pueden contribuir a bosquejar sus poco conocidos vínculos con el peronismo y, de este modo, ampliar aquello que se entiende por obra intelectual de Guido, auscultando un inexplorado episodio de la vida cultural de la primera mitad del siglo veinte en Argentina.
Formas de tratamiento y construcción de la imagen social: nuevos usos de jóvenes hablantes cordobeses en Twitter
Authors: Günther Nazira
Published: July 2023

Este trabajo se centra en el uso de formas de tratamiento (FT) nominales y pronominales de hablantes jóvenes de la ciudad de Córdoba en Twitter. Luego de recolectar estos usos, nuestros objetivos fueron, clasificarlos y observar su aparición en relación con factores sociolingüísticos y contextuales para aportar al estudio de la lengua española en su variedad cordobesa, además de analizar su incidencia en la construcción de la imagen social de los hablantes que utilizan el llamado ciberdiscurso juvenil. La metodología es de tipo cualitativa, y el estudio es descriptivo y exploratorio. Para la recolección de datos, elaboramos un corpus ad hoc, conformado por tuits de jóvenes de entre 18 y 30 años provenientes de Córdoba. El análisis se centró en la incidencia de las FT en las actividades de imagen de estos hablantes en un entorno discursivo particular, a partir de categorías sociopragmáticas, dialectales, diastráticas y diafásicas.

Una caja de resonancias: Los (noventa) archivos habaneros de Dainerys Machado Vento
Authors: Sklodowska Elzbieta
Published: July 2023

La colección de cuentos de Dainerys Machado Vento, Las noventa Habanas (2019), se estudia a contraluz de los archivos orales, visuales y escritos acumulados en la intersección del eje temporal de los 1990—o sea, la crisis conocida en Cuba como El Período Especial en Tiempos de Paz—con el eje espacial de las noventa millas entre Cuba y La Florida. Por medio de lecturas atentas al detalle textual, contextual e intertextual, se hace hincapié en la poética y la ética de innovación/renovación planteada por el Las noventa Habanas.

The Hodges Site (12MG564) and the Emergence of the Oliver Phase in the White River Valley, Indiana
Authors: Trader Patrick D.
Published: July 2023

In 2019, Gray & Pape, Inc., conducted data-recovery efforts at the Hodges site (12MG564), a predominately late precontact Oliver phase (AD 1200–1450) site found in the White River valley of Indiana. Investigations of the site have fostered new ideas regarding the emergence of the Oliver phase. Previous models have suggested that the emergence of the Oliver phase was largely due to the migration of Fort Ancient groups into the region. Other models suggested that the region served as a frontier. The concepts of frontier interaction zones and fluid boundaries are presented here as the reasons for the emergence of the Oliver phase from in situ Late Woodland populations.
A társasbíráskodás szerepe a közigazgatási perekben
Authors: Fényes Marcell
Published: July 2023

A tanulmányban a közigazgatási perrendtartásról szóló 2017. évi I. törvénynek (Kp.) a bíróság összetételére vonatkozó új szabályozását vizsgálom. A Kp. visszaállította a társasbíráskodás főszabályát az elsőfokú per során, ez az üdvözlendő változtatás azonban számos kérdést vet fel. Az elméleti kérdések tárgyalása mellett bemutatom a Kp. releváns szakaszának gyakorlati alkalmazásáról végzett empirikus kutatásom eredményeit. Emellett kitérek arra is, hogy a Kp. nóvumai milyen hatást gyakoroltak a bírósági szervezetrendszerre és igazgatásra, továbbá ez miként csapódott le a bíróság konkrét összetételének szabályozásában.
A mesterséges intelligencia közigazgatásban való felhasználásával okozott kár
Authors: Bicskei Tamás
Published: July 2023

A tanulmányban bemutatjuk a közigazgatási jogkörben okozott károkért való felelősség és a mesterséges intelligencia kapcsolatát. Sor kerül a közigazgatásban használt MI-rendszerek vizsgálatára, a jogszabályi és történeti háttér felderítésére, a kapcsolódó felelősségi problémák ismertetésére. Megállapításra kerül, hogy – figyelembe véve a tudomány jelenlegi állapotát, valamint a jogszabályi környezetet – a jelenleg a magyar közigazgatásban alkalmazott rendszerek még nem tekinthetőek autonóm MI-nek, így ezek esetén nincs jelentősége a felelősség mesterséges intelligenciával összevetett vizsgálatának. A magyar jogirodalmi gondolatokon és bírói gyakorlaton keresztül megvizsgáljuk, hogy ha „valódi” MI-rendszereket alkalmaznának a közigazgatásban és az MI felelősség irányelv is átültetésre kerülne a magyar jogrendszerbe, akkor a bíróság milyen eszközzel tudná vizsgálni a kártérítési felelősség meglétét. Végül elemezzük az ügyfélkapu keretében működő, az ügyfelek számára tájékoztatást nyújtó chatrobotot. Ez az MI-rendszer álláspontunk szerint a jelenlegi jogszabályi és technológiai környezetben is képes lehet – a téves tájékoztatás útján megvalósuló – közhatalom gyakorlásával való károkozásra.
Kritikus tömeg
Authors: Baranyi Bertold
Published: July 2023

Több mint húsz év telt el azóta, hogy a magyar jog a papír alapú okiratokkal egyenértékűnek ismerte el a megfelelő elektronikus aláírással ellátott elektronikus dokumentumokat. Ez elvileg utat nyitott nem csupán a polgári jogi jogviszonyokban, hanem a közhatalmi eljárásokban is az elektronikus ügyintézésnek. Ennek ellenére több mint tizenöt évet kellett várni arra, hogy az infokommunikációs eszközök alkalmazása általános gyakorlattá váljon a közigazgatásban is. Pedig jogi szabályozásban és költségvetési forrásban nem volt hiány. Ebben a tanulmányban – elsősorban a jogi háttér és a statisztikai adatok elemzésével – azt vizsgálom, hogy hosszú évek részben vagy egészében meddő próbálkozásait követően 2018 után hogyan vált az elektronikus kommunikáció mindennapi szokássá a jogi eljárásokban. Ezen belül különösen arra a kérdésre keresem a választ, hogy ebben az ügyvédek, illetve az igazságszolgáltatás körében működő szakmai kamarák – a szó szoros és átvitt értelmében is – kritikus tömeget képeztek-e.

Estimación de la altura de capa de mezcla mediante globosondeo de la atmósfera en la zona urbana de Huancayo, Perú
Authors: Vicuña Salazar Ricky , Ramírez Salas Wilfredo , Suárez Salas Luis
Published: July 2023

El termino de capa de mezcla o capa convectiva suelen asociarse a investigaciones relativas a la estructura y crecimiento de esta capa en condiciones atmosféricas de inestabilidad o condiciones diurnas. El presente trabajo se llevó a cabo en la ciudad de Huancayo (zona urbana), en el centro de Perú, durante los meses de marzo hasta julio del 2019, donde se presenta la estimación del espesor de la capa de mezcla convectiva (Z), obtenido mediante los lanzamientos de globos sondas realizados a las 13 horas. Se compara las ecuaciones de la curva adiabática seca y la curva real de temperatura, obtenido con la temperatura máxima registrada por la estación meteorológica, entre las 11 y 16 horas locales, y del lanzamiento del globo sonda respectivamente. Se determinó que la intensidad del viento horizontal es considerada como un indicador causante de la disminución de la turbulencia convectiva, el cual interviene en el desarrollo adecuado del espesor la Z, además se demostró que no siempre que la atmosfera asuma un comportamiento inestable, la capa de mezclado alcanza su máximo espesor. Se tiene que considerar la intervención de otros parámetros meteorológicos para su adecuada estimación.

Պոլսահայ պարբերականները «Նեմեսիս» գործողության մասին (1920–1922 թթ.)

На проходившем в Ереване 27 сентября – 30 октября 1919 г. 9-м Общем собрании АРФ Дашнакцутюн было принято решение о проведении карательной операции «Немесис» против организаторов Геноцида армян. Эти акты имели большое общественное звучание, что нашло отражение и на страницах константинопольских армянских периодических изданий «Жоговурды дзайн: Жаманак», «Верчин лур» и «Чакатамарт» в 1920–1922 гг. Газеты считали эти акты справедливым наказанием организаторов Геноцида армян, поскольку армянские мстители также привели в исполнение принятые после заключения 30 октября 1918 г. Мудросского перемирия османским военным судом смертные приговоры в отношении главарей младотурок. Согласно приговору от 5 июля 1919 г. главари партии «Единение и прогресс» и представители турецкой власти Талаат, Энвер, Назим, Джемаль, Бехаэддин Шакир и другие были обвинены в вовлечении Турции в войну, депортации армян, организации геноцида и заочно приговорены к смертной казни. Карательные акты были совершены и в отношении предателей-армян. Операция «Немесис» осталась незавершенной. Константинопольские армянские газеты представили как героев членов «Немесис», приведших в исполнение смертные приговоры организаторов и пособников Геноцида армян.
At the 9th General Meeting of the ARF - Dashnaktsutyun, held in Yerevan on September 27-October 30, 1919, a decision was made to conduct a punitive operation “Nemesis” against the organizers of the Armenian Genocide. These acts had a great public response, which was reflected on the pages of the Constantinople Armenian periodicals “Zhoghovurdy dzayn, Zhamanak”, “Verjin lur”, and “Chakatamart” in 1920-1922. The newspapers considered these acts a just punishment for the organizers of the Armenian Genocide, as the Armenian avengers carried out the death sentences against the leaders of the Young Turks, adopted by the Ottoman military court, after the conclusion of the Armistice of Mudros on October 30, 1918. According to the verdict of July 5, 1919, the leaders of the “Unity and Progress” party and representatives of the Turkish authorities Talaat, Enver, Nazim, Jemal, Behaeddin Shakir and others were accused of involving Turkey in the war, deporting Armenians and organizing genocide and were sentenced to death in absentia. Punitive acts were also committed against traitors-Armenians. Operation “'Nemesis” remained incomplete. Armenian newspapers of Constantinople presented the members of “Nemesis” as heroes who carried out the death sentences of the organizers and accomplices of the Armenian Genocide.
