Published: February 2025

The writing of this thesis began with complaints heard from Parish Pastors, catechists and the Youth themselves (OMK) about the low value of knowledge and responsibility of young people. The aim of this thesis is to help Young Catholics (YCTH) understand their duties and responsibilities as members of the Church. In addition, this research aims to help pastors understand and identify the problems faced by young people. In problem analysis, the author uses qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. Using this phenomenological approach, the author tries to analyze and interpret the personal experiences of the informants regarding the importance of the value of responsibility of the younger generation in the life of the Hati Jesus Rantau Pulut congregation. This research uses observation, interview and documentation techniques to collect data. In this research, the author found that the majority of young Catholics in the Rantau Pulut Parish do not participate enough in church life. This is due to a lack of motivation and encouragement from parents and pastors. As a youth mobilization leader, the pastor plays an important role in leading and directing the involvement of the younger generation in church activities.

Published: February 2025

This article discusses the concept of the Kingdom of God in Jesus' teaching according to the Gospel of Mark. The Kingdom of God is understood as a spiritual and eschatological reality that is present through the ministry of Jesus Christ. In the Gospel of Mark, Jesus' teaching about the Kingdom of God challenges the traditional view that expects the coming of the Messiah as a political leader. Using a qualitative approach, this study examines the verses of Mark 1:15, 4:11-12, 4:30-32, and 10:15 to explain the characteristics of the Kingdom of God, such as its theocentric, messianic, and dynamic nature. The study highlights that the Kingdom of God is the active rule of God in human history, with two main dimensions: "already present" through Jesus' ministry and "not yet fully realized" until His second coming. This article provides theological and historical insights into the relevance of Jesus' teachings on the Kingdom of God for the life of the church and society today.

The development of church members serves as a crucial foundation for strengthening Christian ministry. This effort aims to nurture a congregation that is mature in faith, character, and service, enabling them to actively introduce Christ to the world. The church faces significant challenges in increasing congregational participation, particularly among the younger generation, who are often more focused on digital life. Therefore, continuous training is essential to fortify the faith of the congregation and prepare them to engage in Christian ministry. Effective training methods include fellowship, Bible teaching, mentoring, and social service. This development not only strengthens relationships among congregation members but also equips them to serve in various aspects of life. Through ongoing development, the church will produce a congregation that is strong in faith, active in ministry, and ready to face the challenges of the times.
Analisis Teori Sosial Tentang Pengaruh Etika Protestan terhadap Perkembangan Kapitalisme Modern
Authors: Gomer Omega Bani  , Andrian Wira Syahputra
Published: February 2025

The purpose of this analysis is to explore the relationship between the Protestant ethic and the development of modern capitalism, and to analyze the influence of Protestant ethical values ​​on economic and social dynamics. In addition, this analysis aims to identify shortcomings in existing studies, including theoretical focus and broader social impacts, in order to produce a more comprehensive understanding of the interaction between the Protestant ethic, capitalism, and the social context. The method used is a literature review, which involves analyzing literature related to social theory, especially Max Weber's thoughts, as well as criticism of his approach. The results of the study indicate that although the Protestant ethic has an important role, other factors such as technological progress, social change, and political structures also contribute to shaping modern capitalism. In addition, the issue of social inequality and injustice that may arise from the application of these ethical values ​​requires more attention in future studies. Thus, this study emphasizes the need for a more holistic approach to understanding the complex interaction between the Protestant ethic, capitalism, and the broader social context.

Authors: Alves de Araújo Aluiza , Abreu de Oliveira Thais , Pinheiro Campelo Suyanne
Published: February 2025

Este estudo tem como objetivo geral investigar os discursos intolerantes realizados contra a participante paraibana, Juliette Freire, no reality show Big Brother da versão brasileira, durante a sua 21ª edição. Esses discursos negativos partiram da participante Karol Conká, levando-nos a refletir sobre a forma de ação e as ideologias construídas. Assim, buscamos descrever como se estabelece a relação entre o discurso de ódio e o preconceito linguístico. Como fundamentação teórica, seguimos o campo da Análise de Discurso Crítico, para o debate sobre aspectos simbólicos que orientam as práticas sociais, particularmente com os estudos sobre o preconceito linguístico (Bagno, 2007, 2012) e o discurso de ódio (Araujo & Freitas, 2022). De acordo com a metodologia, este artigo assume características de uma pesquisa qualitativa e emprega como método os modos de operação da ideologia (Thompson, 2011). O nosso corpus é formado por dois discursos da participante Karol Conká, vinculados ao portal Ecoa Uol e ao site iG Gente, respectivamente, trazendo a percepção dos efeitos desses discursos para a sociedade. Os resultados apontam para discursos repletos de preconceito linguístico e discurso de ódio.

Published: February 2025

O texto está teoricamente filiado na Análise do Discurso. São mobilizados os autores Pêcheux, Foucault e Courtine, dentre outros. O corpus analítico é composto por cinco textos-imagens que circularam nas mídias. Duas são fotografias durante a posse presidencial de Lula, em 1º de janeiro de 2023, em seu terceiro mandato. A terceira é o logo do governo federal. A quarta é de Lula em 2018. A quinta fotografia é de Lula em 1979, em assembleia do Sindicato dos Metalúrgicos do ABC, em São Bernardo do Campo/SP. Coloco em análises materialidades de corpos e emoções em discursos. Analiso o processo de significação da governamentalidade de Lula em suas práticas de governar e a sua biopolítica atenta à diversidade do povo brasileiro. Diferente do ato de silenciar e/ou de apagar a diversidade socialmente, o Governo de Lula afirma direitos aos seus corpos, presentificados na ordem do corpo da língua e do corpo da imagem, simbolicamente ao (im)pulsionar tais brasileiros em práticas sociais, dando visibilidade e legitimação à constituição de seus saberes por direitos e poderes legais de existência e significância. Diante disso, busco discutir o funcionamento do corpo como materialidade discursiva, por meio de significantes de direitos, de memória de lutas de reivindicação à visibilização, de poderes, ao estabelecer relações de existência com a dignidade da pessoa humana e com os direitos humanos no Estado Democrático de Direito.
Blunt cerebrovascular injuries and association with cervical spine injury
Authors: Jeppesen Hanna Sissel Foldager , Kristensen Lasse , Brink Ole , Høy Kristian
Published: February 2025

INTRODUCTION. Blunt cerebrovascular injuries (BCVI) associated with cervical spine injuries (CSI) carry a high risk of morbidity and mortality. This nationwide Danish study, covering the years 2017-2023, aimed to identify key BCVI predictors in patients with CSI to support improved early detection and management strategies.

METHODS. The study analysed data from four level-1 trauma centres using the Abbreviated Injury Scale to classify BCVI cases. Factors assessed included age, sex, type of cervical injury and the Injury Severity Score (ISS).

RESULTS. Age and sex were not significant predictors of BCVI (p = 0.12, p = 0.65). However, any form of CSI was a strong predictor (p < 0.001; odds ratios (OR) = 26.3; confidence intervals (95% CI): 16.84-41.12), as were cervical spine ligamentous injuries (p = 0.0007; OR = 5.4; 95% CI: 2.3-12.89). An increase in ISS score significantly correlated with BCVI risk (p = 0.001; OR = 1.03 per unit increase; 95% CI: 1.01-1.05). Specific cervical fractures were not independent predictors of BCVI.

CONCLUSIONS. From a Danish cohort of patients admitted to a level 1 trauma centre, we found a BCVI incidence of three per thousand. In case of verified injury to the cervical region, the incidence rose to 6.25%. Our findings underscore the need for increased vigilance and a standardised nationwide algorithm to prevent disability, loss of health-related quality of life, and mortality in CSI patients at risk of BCVI.

FUNDING. The study was funded by Offerfonden, Dagmar Marshall Fonden, and Torben & Alice Frimodt Fonden.

TRIAL REGISTRATION. The data collection was approved by the local ethical committee and the Central Denmark Region Office for Research: 1-45-70-19-23.

Published: February 2025

INTRODUCTION. Large language models have recently gained interest within the medical community. Their clinical impact is currently being investigated, with potential application in pharmaceutical counselling, which has yet to be assessed.

METHODS. We performed a retrospective investigation of ChatGPT 3.5 and 4.0 in response to 49 consecutive inquiries encountered in the joint pharmaceutical counselling service of the Central and North Denmark regions. Answers were rated by comparing them with the answers generated by physicians.

RESULTS. ChatGPT 3.5 and 4.0 provided answers rated better or equal in 39 (80%) and 48 (98%) cases, respectively, compared to the pharmaceutical counselling service. References did not accompany answers from ChatGPT, and ChatGPT did not elaborate on what would be considered most clinically relevant when providing multiple answers.

CONCLUSIONS. In drug-related questions, ChatGPT (4.0) provided answers of a reasonably high quality. The lack of references and an occasionally limited clinical interpretation makes it less useful as a primary source of information.

FUNDING. None.

TRIAL REGISTRATION. Not relevant.
The MR scan of triangular fibrocartilaginous complex injuries
Authors: Schreiner Ditte Nortov , Xie Xiong , Gvozdenovic Robert
Published: February 2025

This review examines whether MRI can reliably replace wrist arthroscopy in diagnosing TFCC injuries of the ulnar wrist, based on 18 articles selected through PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library. MRI shows improvement in diagnosing TFCC injuries, and the predictive values of MRI get significantly better by using tools like post-processing techniques, contrast, and pathological markers. However, MRI is unreliable as an independent diagnostic tool for TFCC lesions that need surgical treatment. More well-designed studies are required to determine this diagnostic modality’s clinical relevance.
New treatment strategies in assisted reproduction
Authors: Myrup Cecilia Kiehn , Wang Nathalie Friis , Løssl Kristine , Pinborg Anja
Published: February 2025

This review elucidates the roles of vitrification and blastocyst culture in assisted reproductive technology. Vitrification exploits ultra-fast cooling rates to preserve embryos and avoid cell-damaging ice crystals. With the cultivation of the embryo to the blastocyst stage, survival- and pregnancy rates are now comparable to those achieved with fresh embryos. This has provided numerous advantages, and this review will focus on the management of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, the use of gonadotropin-releasing hormone-agonist trigger, elective single embryo transfer, and preimplantation genetic testing.

Authors: Tøt-Strate Simone Abildgaard , Asmussen Jette , Hulgaard Ditte Roth
Published: February 2025

Functional seizures (FS) involve attacks resembling epilepsy-related seizures but without abnormal electric activity in the brain. The resemblance to epilepsy makes FS difficult to diagnose. In this case report, we present a 4-year-old boy suffering from FS. Elimination of seizures was reported after 4 years with 7 normal EEGs, 1 normal MRI of the cerebrum, several inefficient anticonvulsives, numerous pediatric in- and outpatient treatment, and family-based treatment. Conclusively, FS should be kept in mind as a rare cause of seizures in young children and family-based treatment may be relevant.

Authors: Bundvad Lauge , Azawi Nessn
Published: February 2025

This is a case report of non-traumatic ureteral rupture caused by a 12-mm obstructing ureteral stone. A male patient in the mid-50’s developed uroplania and multiple abscesses in the left lower extremity. To treat the infection, he underwent multiple procedures alternately at urological and orthopaedic departments. Ureteral rupture is a potentially dangerous disorder that therefore requires accelerated diagnostics and often a multidisciplinary treatment.

Further invasive treatments including botulinum toxin injections, sacral neuromodulation, and bladder augmentation are also discussed.
Risk of bias across study designs
Authors: Fonnes Siv , Rosenberg Jacob
Published: February 2025

Bias means a systematic error and is a problem in research. Several bias tools are available, which are specific and depend on the study design. There are four overall categories of bias: selection bias, information bias, reporting bias, and other bias. This review summarises bias assessment in randomised controlled trials, cohort studies, and systematic reviews. Assessment of bias can be used at any point in the research process, not only for published research articles. This is an important step to avoid research waste.
Gluteal compartment syndrome

Published: February 2025

Gluteal compartment syndrome (GCS) is a rare condition but undiagnosed it can be fatal. Because only a few cases are reported, the condition is not well characterized. This is a case report of a 56-year-old male who developed GCS most likely due to surgery and post-operative immobilization. We would like to increase the attention on GCS with respect to potential risk factors, symptoms and how the condition can be prevented and managed. Time to intervention can be critical and healthcare workers should be aware of the condition in a differential diagnostic context.

Published: February 2025

In this case report, a 72-year-old male haemodialysis patient with severe chronic kidney disease-associated pruritus (CKD-aP) was given difelikefalin (DFK) 50 μg × 3/week after unsuccessful standard therapy including fatty cream, steroids, antihistamines, gabapentinoids, and UV-light. CKD-aP was verified by a dermatologist before DFK was given. After three weeks, CKD-aP had improved markedly. The worst itch numeric rate scale (range: 0-10) dropped to 0 from 7-8 prior to DFK. DFK caused drowsiness which disappeared when the treatment was paused. DFK dose was then reduced to 25 μg × 3/week which was well tolerated. The skin healed, except for scars caused by scratching.
El arte visual callejero como emergencia creativa y pedagógica para la transformación del territorio. El arte visual callejero como modificabilidad cultural
Authors:   Universidad Pedagógica Nacional, López Gómez Wilson Darío
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This discussion will focus on showing two relevant aspects to rescue from this research process on the importance of visual street art in the territory, initially to identify the relationship that exists between this kind of expressions with their creative and transforming capacity, their capacity of “cultural modification” through their different practices in the territory and how it becomes a pedagogical process of social learning. And on the other hand, to show part of the methodological approach used to analyze this kind of expressions. The aim is to rescue these two elements as relevant aspects as significant contributions in this experience and in the construction of knowledge about this social phenomenon. In this way, it is possible to demonstrate how street visual expressions generate processes of cultural modifiability, understood as a pedagogical process. The experience of analyzing visual street art as in its creative, transforming, emergent and resistant capacity allows to look for methodologies and new social and community practices that generate transitions in the territories and allow a greater coexistence to achieve the consolidation of peace territories that is only possible through formative and pedagogical processes in society.

Published: February 2025

The tannery industry uses chemical substances and equipment that allow the treatment of the skins, in which the operators must previously know the levels of physical and chemical risks for their respective handling. Therefore, the main objective of the research is to reduce the risks mentioned in the operators by applying a dialogue of knowledge between the university and the industry with the implementation of a training workshop on Good Manufacturing Practices, and its relationship with target 3.9 of the Sustainable Development Goals; in which the cognitive category of life skills was applied in its dimensions (critical thinking, self-knowledge and decision making). The methodology used was qualitative with a descriptive scope, in which the perceptions of the operators were analyzed using the ATLAS.ti. version 09 program, with which semantic networks were constructed, linking the responses of the operators to a series of questions, which were addressed in each of the work modules (physical risks in the work environment and chemical risks in the industry). At the level of conclusions it is highlighted that the operators applied the dimension of self-knowledge in physical risks highlighting the importance of using Personal Protection Elements to avoid accidents in their daily work; in relation to the dimensions of critical thinking and decision making, these were applied in chemical risks where employees argue the use of pictograms of chemical reagents in the handling of substances in each of their processes. Finally, the population involved establishes the importance of dialogue between academia and industry to continue carrying out this type of activities, which in the future will guarantee a healthy life and promote the well-being of all workers, thus complying with Sustainable Development Goal 3.

Published: February 2025

The accumulation of waste in certain locations, especially in residential areas, due to the continuous accumulation of waste can cause environmental disturbances such as disease and unpleasant odors. This system is designed to find out whether the trash bin is full or not by applying fuzzy logic, if the status of the trash bin can be cleaned, it will be handled immediately so that the waste does not accumulate and disturb people around. This system can find out when the last time the waste was taken and the location of the trash bin as a prototype which can later be applied to areas with a wider range by cleaning service officers in Mamuju City. This system uses the HC-SR04 sensor to detect the distance of the waste to the sensor and uses the Load Cell sensor to detect the weight of the waste. Several tests were carried out, first by measuring the accuracy of each sensor used, the HC-SR04 sensor accuracy was obtained at 96.68% with an error of 3.32%. While the accuracy of the load cell sensor is 90.68% with an error of 9.32%. The second test calculates the sensor response time and Blynk notification response since the sensor detects waste, the average HC-SR04 sensor detection response is around 0.83 seconds. For the response time of incoming notifications when there is movement in the HC-SR04 sensor area has an average of 2.65 seconds. While the Load Cell sensor response time is only around 0.53 seconds. For Blynk notification response time since the Load Cell sensor detects it has an average of 2.51 seconds. The third test calculates the response time of the two sensors (HC-SR04 and Load Cell) and the Blynk notification response since the two sensors detected the waste, the average response time of the two sensors finished detecting only around 0.91 seconds. For the response time of the trash bin status condition, if there is movement in the area of the two sensors, the condition of the trash bin will change and display the status of Normal, Needs Cleaning and Highly Needs Cleaning with an average response time of 1.18 seconds. The system successfully sends notifications according to the fuzzy rules and expected to speed up the waste handling process

Published: February 2025

En las últimas décadas, la gestión del conocimiento ha emergido como un campo de estudio crítico en la administración organizacional. Dentro de este ámbito, el concepto de capital intelectual ha adquirido una relevancia significativa como un activo intangible capaz de potenciar el desempeño organizacional (Nawaz y Haniffa, 2017). La evolución histórica del concepto de capital intelectual se remonta a los inicios del comercio, donde los mercaderes ya reconocían implícitamente el valor de las relaciones con sus clientes (Brooking, 1996). Sin embargo, su conceptualización formal y su incorporación al discurso académico y empresarial no se consolidaron hasta finales del siglo XX. John Kenneth Galbraith, en 1969, fue uno de los pioneros en utilizar el término, refiriéndose a la posesión de conocimientos y habilidades como un activo de creciente importancia. No obstante, el desarrollo sistemático del concepto se atribuye principalmente a los trabajos de Sveiby y Edvinsson a principios de la década de 1990 (Sveiby, 1997; Edvinsson y Malone, 1997).

Al considerar que el aprendizaje de los niños de primaria se refiere al conocimiento del mundo físico y de la sociedad, es un hecho irrefutable que la economía, las finanzas y el emprendedurismo no son exclusivas de ciertos sectores sociales, por lo que no debe ser un vacío en el currículum de la educación básica.
Algunas culturas le dan mayor importancia al emprendedurismo; por ejemplo en Europa resaltan la importancia de la relación del sistema educativo con el mundo laboral y productivo, se recomienda a todos los estados miembros a trabajar en dos competencias claves “sentido de la iniciativa” y “espíritu de empresa” (Romero-Tena y Espasandín-Bustelo, 2016). Japón, a partir de 1989 incluyó temas económicos en la educación básica para que las nuevas generaciones se adaptaran a la nueva economía global. También Estados Unidos e Inglaterra incorporaron a la agenda educativa la formación de habilidades económicas y financieras en el esquema de educación básica (Cruz-Barba, 2018).

El objetivo de la investigación es analizar el desarrollo de la actividad económica manufacturera en el noroeste de México. Manufactura, según su origen, significa obra hecha a mano. Sin embargo, con el comienzo de la era industrial, su definición se amplió a incluir obras hechas a mano o con la ayuda de máquinas. En la actualidad, debido a consideraciones de costo, eficiencia y calidad, la producción con maquinaria ha cobrado mayor relevancia. Desde el punto de vista de ingeniería, la manufactura implica convertir materiales en productos que sean beneficiosos para la sociedad (Barbosa et al., 2019, p. 11).
La economía mexicana cambió significativamente con la adopción de un modelo de desarrollo centrado en las exportaciones y las reformas estructurales impulsadas por la liberalización y privatización económica. El TLCAN fue fundamental para orientar la política económica y los sectores productivos hacia el mercado internacional.

Authors: Navasardyan A. A.
Published: February 2025

Modern military actions are predominantly conducted with small units and groups, which often autonomously fight in hostile environment and in conditions isolated from the so called main forces. That’s why great significance is attached to the cohesion of the personnel, so is the junior commanders’ initiative, which, nonetheless, should be exercised in the framework of the senior commander’s overall concept and intent. The cohesion of the military collective is one of the most important social and psychological characteristics, which provide its members’ interoperability of actions, which is mutually conditioned by the conformity of their motivations, value orientations, views and perceptions.

The article highlights the following indicators of personnel cohesion: clarity and certainty of group goals; interdependence of members of a military collective during joint activities; level of mutual sympathy and absence of destructive conflicts in interpersonal relations; optimal leadership (command) style; group authority and traditions, consistent with legal norms, etc.

The command staff provides for these indicators at the expense of effective organization of daily work placing constant value at the moral and psychological climate being developed in the collective. The article accentuates the importance of creating prerequisites in the military collective for the formation of a group leadership, if necessary, with distributed balanced authority in order to exclude the possibility of establishing a personalist dictatorship.
Erosion Corrosion of Commercially Pure Titanium and Ti-6Al-4V Alloy in Sodium Chloride Solutions with and Without Suspended Solids
Authors: T Hodgkiess , D Mantzavinos
Published: February 2025

This paper describes the findings from an experimental study of the performance of commercially pure titanium and the alloy Ti/6Al/4V in high velocity 3.5% NaCl aqueous solution with and without suspended solids. The investigation involved mass loss measurements, electrochemical monitoring, surface profiling and microscopical examination. Submerged jet testing equipment was utilised using 90° impingement. The two materials exhibited excellent durability in solids-free saline water under an extremely high impingement velocity of 71 m/s at ambient temperature (18-20 °C) and 50 °C. In the presence of suspended sand over the range of 500 - 1800 mg/l, however, the durability of the materials was severely compromised under a jet velocity of about 12.6 m/s. The Ti/6Al/4V alloy demonstrated somewhat superior resistance to erosion corrosion than the commercially pure titanium. A major objective of the work, namely the quantification of the proportions of pure mechanical erosion, pure corrosion and the interactive synergy components, was accomplished. An additional feature of the research involved the adoption of an experimental methodology that facilitates the discrimination of damage between the two hydrodynamic zones (directly impinged and surrounding regions) via the use of a segmented specimen arrangement. This procedure demonstrated that, whilst the most severe damage was experienced in the zone under direct impingement from a small diameter nozzle, there was, nevertheless, a significant attack within the surrounding region where the fluid flow was at lower angles.

This study describes the employment status of individuals who obtained a Master of Arts in Sociology from MSU-Iligan Institute of Technology in Iligan City. Employing a descriptive method, the research tracked down 42 out of 52 graduates spanning the years 1990 to 2023. The study adapted the Graduate Tracer Study (GTS) by CHED, modifying the data collection instrument for its purposes, through a survey.
The findings indicated that all respondents were gainfully employed during the data gathering period, with occupations aligned with their sociology degree. A significant number of participants held the same positions as their initial jobs, often as teachers, faculty members, or instructors. The majority were engaged in full-time employment within the public or government sector. Additionally, many respondents were pursuing further education, both locally and internationally. The respondents overwhelmingly expressed a positive attitude toward the MA Sociology program, highlighting its impact on their personal development and careers. Overall assessments of program elements and physical facilities received exceptionally high ratings.
However, to enhance the program's attractiveness and improve graduates' prospects, the study put forth recommendations derived from respondents' feedback. Suggestions included refining the curriculum by incorporating more immersive activities, organizing additional workshops to enhance research technical skills, and introducing new courses. Furthermore, respondents recommended enhancements to facilities and resources to better support the program and its graduates.
