Published: July 2022

Goal. Analysis of the dynamics of demographic indicators in the regions of Ukraine. Method. The study is based on general scientific methods, namely, analysis and synthesis, descriptive, analytical. And also socio-geographical - comparative-geographical. Results. The dynamics and regional features of births, deaths, natural increase / decrease in population, life expectancy at birth, migration growth / decrease in population for the period 2001-2020 in Ukraine are analyzed. The main causes of population mortality in 2020 are revealed. The dynamics of indicators that characterize marital and family relations in Ukraine, namely, the coefficients of marriage, divorce, the average age of marriage registration for both men and women, the average age of the mother at birth, the share of illegitimate children. The new model of family and marital relations that is being formed in Ukraine is characterized by a high level of consensual marriages, an increase in the age of marriage, a high level of extramarital births, a low birth rate and high levels of economic and consumer activity. Accordingly, the demographic situation in Ukraine is characterized by a crisis in the birth rate, deteriorating health of the population (especially reproductive age), increased mortality and reduced life expectancy. The priority tasks for improving the demographic situation in Ukraine should be: stabilizing the birth rate and bringing it in the long run to a level that provides a simple mode of demographic reproduction; improving the health of the population, reducing mortality and increasing life expectancy; strengthening the institution of the family, as well as creating conditions for combining professional activities with family responsibilities for women; improving the regulation of migration processes. Scientific novelty. Analysis of traditional demographic indicators. However, the analysis of marital and family relations and the role of women in society, as well as their impact on the demographic situation. Practical significance. Analysis of indicators in space and time to identify trends. The introduction of demographic policy measures in domestic practice will help improve the demographic situation in the country.
The Attitude of Internet Users to the Economy in a Pandemic: a Cross-Cultural Analysis

Published: July 2022

Objective. Analysis of the psychological characteristics of the attitude of Russians to economic phenomena in the context of the coronavirus pandemic with an examination of its cross-cultural characteristics in comparison with countries that have a different from Russian ethnocultural history of the formation and development of economies (United States and Japan). Background. Russia is a leader in the international ranking of countries with the richest natural resources, but the standard of living of Russians for many years remains insufficiently high, and ac¬cording to the estimates of Russians themselves, negative dynamics of life is manifested in a noticeable number of socio-economic indicators. At the same time, scientific data obtained in recent years indicate the presence of direct relationships between economic and psychological factors of the development of society, the nature of which has not yet been fully disclosed. The research is exploratory in nature. Methodology. The concept of psychological relations, structural and content analysis of search queries, methods of continuous sampling and comparative analysis, method of grounded theory, expert assessment, predictive methods. Conclusions. User interest in the pandemic has varied according to the course of the pandemic in each of the three countries. At the same time, in the United States and Japan, interest in economic realities significantly exceeded interest in a pandemic, and in Russia, interest in a pandemic turned out to be incomparably higher. The initially high interest of the population in the pandemic began to decline sharply over time, but the popularity of economically oriented inquiries remains at a high level: a decrease in interest in theoretical problems and its strengthening in real economic situations have been revealed. The nature of thematic requests from users from the United States, Japan and Russia allows us to state that in the first two countries, inquiries on business problems have sharply increased, which is not typical of Russians, whose income is mainly determined by the state. At the same time, the benefits of an operational nature, presumably, can become concomitant causes of a possible strategic crisis both in the objective — economic and subjective — psychological terms.

Published: July 2022

To determine the crustal deformation and the stress–strain accumulation characteristics preceding the Mw 7.3 Maduo earthquake and the seismic potential of the Maqin–Maqu fault segment, the seismic data from small earthquake events and Global Positioning System (GPS) observations stations are collected. The b-value, the GPS velocity field, the GPS baseline, and the GPS strain parameters for multiple areas are calculated and analyzed. The results show a low b-value anomaly in the epicenter and its adjacent areas before the earthquake, which suggest that the stress level of the medium in this area was high before the earthquake. The regional GPS velocity field indicates that the earthquake epicenter is in an area where strain energy accumulates at varying slip rates and orientations. The deformation rates of the northeast-oriented baselines on the east side of the fault and the northwest-oriented baselines on the west side of the fault are lower than those observed near the three near north–south-oriented baselines, reflecting a small compressive deformation that occurred at the epicenter before the earthquake. Meanwhile, the motion of baselines QHYS-QHMD, QHYS-QHMQ, and QHGE-SCSP noticeably decreased, indicating that the area near the fault had already stored a great deal of strain energy prior to the earthquake. The rate of plane strain reduced in the epicenter region before the earthquake gradually since the second half of 2019, illustrating the deficit points to high stress conditions in the epicenter area. Furthermore, the area near the epicenter was characterized by high strain accumulation before the earthquake. The Maqin–Maqu segment of the East Kunlun fault is likely to be capable of generating strong earthquakes in the near future, because the current state of the area is similar to that of the Maduo epicenter before the onset of the earthquake.

Published: July 2022

In Aotearoa New Zealand, populations of Pacific peoples increased by 45% between 2006 and 2018 (Statistics New Zealand, 2018). Consequently, teachers need to be equipped with knowledge, skills, and resources to be able to respond to Pacific learners and communities appropriately and effectively. This article presents findings from a research project that identified 90 picturebooks featuring Pacific peoples and stories published since 2013, and analysed them for representations of Pacific culture, values, and languages. In this article, we present a thematic analysis of 10 picturebooks exploring their potential as pedagogical resources to support early childhood education (ECE) teachers in developing cultural competencies for working with Pacific learners and their families.

Authors: Mackay Kirsten , Stephenson Niki , Thomas Becs , McChesney Jane
Published: July 2022

Children are active and creative mathematical learners in the early years. This article reports part of a Teacher-led Innovation Fund (TLIF) project that investigated children’s mathematical activity at an early childhood centre and the first year of school. Teacher–researchers were from each site, and mathematical opportunities were identified in children’s play, based on their interests or from teacher provocations. Examples of children’s explorations are reported that illustrate collaborative, creative, and curious mathematical activity, similar to practices of mathematicians. The roles of teachers were crucial in recognising opportunities and contributing questions to sustain and extend conversations.

Published: July 2022

Objectives: Maxillary sinus pathological conditions, like thickening of the Schneiderian membrane, can influence the outcomes of augmentation procedures and implant treatment. The present study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the residual ridge height and maxillary sinus membrane thickening.
Materials and Methods: A total of 240 cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of the maxillary sinus of 141 patients (62.1% males and 37.9% females, bilateral in 99 patients and unilateral in 42 patients) who were candidates for implant placement were evaluated. The CBCT scans were subsequently assessed for the following variables: residual ridge height, sinus membrane thickening at future implant(s) site(s), the ostium patency, and presence of periapical lesion adjacent to the edentulous area.
Results: The total prevalence of sinus membrane thickening (66.2%) was sub-classified as follows: flat in 53.7%, polypoid in 12.1%, and complete opacification in 0.4%. The prevalence of sinus membrane thickening was higher in male participants. It was revealed that age had no significant relationship with presence of a periapical lesion or sinus membrane thickening (P>0.05). Membrane thickening was detected in all sinuses with obstructed ostium. Reduced residual ridge height was significantly associated with higher sinus membrane thickening at the second premolar and first molar sites (P<0.05).
Conclusion: Maxillary sinus membrane thickening (mostly with flat appearance) is frequently observed on CBCT scans taken prior to augmentation and implant placement. This, in return, may trigger a reduction in ridge height.

Published: July 2022

Objectives: We compared the effects of fluoride mouthwashes on surface topography of orthodontic wires, and static and kinetic frictional forces between stainless-steel (SS) orthodontic brackets and SS and nickel-titanium (NiTi) archwires.
Materials and Methods: This in vitro, experimental study evaluated 240 standard SS maxillary central incisor brackets and 0.018-, and 0.025×0.019-inch NiTi and SS archwires. Different combinations of wire diameters and wire types were exposed to artificial saliva (control), 0.05% sodium-fluoride (NaF) for 1 minute daily, or 0.2% NaF for 1 minute weekly (37°C) for 3 months. The wires were pulled in the bracket slots by 5mm in a universal testing machine (10mm/minute). The static and kinetic forces were measured. The surface topography of the wires was inspected under a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Three-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post-hoc tests were used for statistical analysis (P<0.05).
Results: The mean static and kinetic frictional forces of 0.025×0.019- inch NiTi wired in the 0.05%NaF group were significantly greater than the SS wire. The mean kinetic frictional force in the 0.05%NaF group was significantly greater than the 0.2%NaF and artificial saliva groups for all wires. The mean static and kinetic forces in 0.2%NaF were significantly greater than in artificial saliva. In all groups, larger wires showed higher mean frictional forces. SEM results revealed higher wire surface roughness in the 0.05%NaF group followed by the 0.2%NaF group.
Conclusion: Weekly use of 0.2%NaF mouthwash is recommended during sliding mechanics to minimize frictional forces between SS and NiTi wires and SS brackets.

Authors: Ilievska G. , Stojanovska-Dimzoska B. , Koceva D. , Stojković G. , Angeleska A. , Dimitrieska-Stojković E.
Published: July 2022

Background: Aflatoxins (AFs), as secondary metabolites, are mainly produced by fungi of Aspergillus genus. The determination of contamination rate, dietary exposure, and health risk assessment for aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) was conducted aimed to estimate potential health risks for the population of North Macedonia.
Methods: A total of 974 dairy samples, including 404 Ultra-High Temperature (UHT) milk, 291 ice cream, 178 yogurt, and 101 cheese were collected from the markets in North Macedonia. Analysis of AFM1 was done using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography with Fluorescence Detection.
Results: The AFM1 incidence was highest in yogurt samples (93.8%) and lowest in UHT milk samples (67.8%). AFM1 concentrations were 49.1±68.4, 30.9±30.0, 35.1±40.4, and 40.1±90.1 ng/kg for UHT milk, ice cream, yogurt, and cheese samples, respectively. The Estimated Daily Intake (EDI) for the average population and high consumers (upper bound; samples with AFM1<Limit of Detection (LOD) were 0.150 and 0.456 ng/kg body weight (bw)/day, respectively. The Hazard Index (HI), Margin of Exposure (MoE), and the fraction of Hepatocarcinoma (HCC) cases per 100,000 inhabitants for the average population reached values of 0.33, 8533, and 0.004, respectively.
Conclusion: To our best knowledge, this is the first report of dietary exposure and risk assessment of AFM1 in dairy products of North Macedonia, revealing a potential risk of AFM1 in population of this country.

Authors: Hainghumbi T.A. , Embashu W. , Nantanga K.K.M. , Kadhila N.P. , Iipumbu L.
Published: July 2022

Background: Kalahari truffle (Kalaharituber pfeilii) is found in the Kalahari desert and nearby regions (Africa). This study assessed the microbiological quality and safety, mycotoxins, and heavy metals contents of raw Kalahari truffle sold in Namibia.
Methods: Batches of Kalahari truffles were purchased from informal markets and different vendors in Namibia. Total aerobic, coliform, yeast, and moulds counts, and Salmonella were assessed. Also, some mycotoxins and heavy metals were determined. Data were analyzed using SPSS Statistics Software, Version 25.
Results: Total aerobic count of unwashed truffles ranged from 4.4 to 7.3 log Colony Forming Unit (CFU)/g. Total coliform counts detected in truffles were 6.0 log CFU/g. Salmonella was not detected. Doxynivalenol was the most prevalent mycotoxin. Fumonisin B1 levels ranged from 17.4 to 142.1 µg/kg. Ochratoxin A levels in unwashed truffles ranged from 0.1 to 48.5 µg/kg. Total aflatoxin levels were 26.3 to 27.5 µg/kg, while zearalenone levels ranged from 45.0 to 9,680 µg/kg. The iron content was up to 746.72 mg/kg. Cadmium and zinc were detected in the studied samples, but mercury and nickel were no detectable in any samples.
Conclusion: The studied truffle samples were safe in terms of Salmonella, mercury, and nickel. However, some of the detected microorganisms, mycotoxins, and heavy metals in underprized Kalahari truffles may impair the safety, shelf life, and human health. Thus, they should be subjected to appropriate processing before consumption.

Authors: Ramos-Esquivel Allan , Fernández Cristina , Garro-Zamora Luis , Chaves Ana Victoria , Viquez-Jaikel Álvaro
Published: July 2022

Background: During the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, severe patients were treated with the off-label drugs hydroxychloroquine and lopinavir/ritonavir. The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) between hydroxychloroquine, lopinavir/ritonavir and concomitant medications used by hospitalized patients treated for COVID-19 in Costa Rica.
Methods: We included all patients that received lopinavir/ritonavir or hydroxychloroquine as treatment for COVID-19. Clinical pharmacists reviewed the prescription profile of each patient and determined the probability and severity of any DDI through two databases (The Lexi-Interact program) and the Micromedex online interaction checker. A logistic regression model was used to identify variables associated with the occurrence of potential DDIs.
Results: We identified a total of 108 potential DDIs in 34 inpatients (n=34). At least one of these DDIs occurred in 27 patients (79.4%; 95% CI: 65.8-92.9%). A total of 70 DDIs (64.8%) were classified as clinically relevant (grade D or X) by the clinical pharmacists. Only the number of concomitant drugs was associated with the occurrence of a probable DDI. The most common drugs associated with any DDI were fentanyl (n=12, 11.1%), midazolam (n=11, 10.2%), and insulin (n=10, 10.2%).
Conclusion: A large proportion of patients treated with hydroxychloroquine and lopinavir/ritonavir for severe COVID-19 were at risk for clinical meaningful DDIs.
Evaluation of Piperacillin/Tazobactam Use and Resistance Ppattern in a Teaching Hospital, Northwest Iran
Authors: Shiva Afshin , Gharehghomi Soudabeh , Hatamkhani Shima
Published: July 2022

Background: Inappropriate use of broad-spectrum antibiotics has contributed to the emergence of resistant microorganisms, increased treatment costs, morbidity and mortality, drug toxicity, and prolonged hospitalization period. Determining the epidemiology of antibiotic resistance in various hospital wards allows for more precise drug selection in the hospital setting. This study evaluated the use and resistance pattern of a broad-spectrum antibiotic, Piperacillin/tazobactam, in Imam Khomeini, a referral teaching hospital in Urmia, Iran.
Methods: All hospitalized patients who were treated with Piperacillin\Tazobactam from January to August 2018 were included. Demographic (age, sex, weight, comorbidities) and clinical data (Indication, dosing, duration of the treatment, susceptibility test, creatinine clearance, need for dose adjustment, clinical outcome, and mortality) of the patients were collected, and the compliance of piperacillin\tazobactam administration and its resistance pattern was assessed according to Lexi-comp- 2019 recommendations.
Results: Among 177 patients, 88.7% received piperacillin\tazobactam without any appropriate susceptibility tests. The piperacillin disk was used in only 33.3% of the culture-positive cases in our research, with 70% resistance. Acinetobacter was the most common bacteria found in our culture-positive samples. The average duration of piperacillin\tazobactam treatment was 8.52 ± 5.84 days. Indications in 8.5%, doses in 18.5%, prescription period in 19.7%, and dose intervals in 31.4% of the cases were inappropriate. Piperacillin\tazobactam was mainly administered for pneumonia (34.5%)
Conclusion: This study showed an injudicious use of Piperacillin/tazobactam in our hospital, evidenced by the significant number of inappropriate doses, intervals, and treatment duration. Decision-making based on susceptibility tests using appropriate and accurate methods, close monitoring of the patients' clinical status, including creatinine clearance, and antimicrobial stewardship programs may optimize the rational administration of broad-spectrum antimicrobials and avoid the emergence of bacterial resistance.

Published: July 2022

Background: This study aimed to inspect the association between the response to etanercept among patients with rheumatoid arthritis and several epidemiological and clinical variables and medication adherence, as measured by medication possession ratio (MPR).
Methods: A cohort study that enrolls 120 active rheumatoid arthritis patients. The baseline values of disease activity score for 28 joints (DAS28) score,erythrocyte sedimmintation rate (ESR), WBC, tender joints count (TJC), swelling joints counts (SJC), and medication adherence, as measured by medication possession ratio (MPR), were identified. All patients received etanercept treatment for three months, and then the clinical response to etanercept was assessed after the end of the three months duration. Factors affecting clinical response were evaluated by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. The predictive performance of a single independent predictor was then assessed using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.
Results: The results of the univariate logistic regression model showed that the smoking, disease duration, baseline DAS28, and MPR could predict the patients' proclivity for being non-responder. The multivariate logistic regression model showed that only baseline DAS28 (P< 0.0001, OR=32.239, 95%CI: 4.941–210.338) and MPR (P=0.002, OR=0.00063, 95%CI: 0.00001–0.032) were independent predictive factors for the tendency of patients to be non-responder. ROC curve analysis disclosed that baseline ESR and DAS28 have a good area under the curve (AUC) with the optimal cut-off for the baseline ESR threshold was 52 mm/hr., whereas the baseline DAS28 threshold was 5.79.
Conclusion: Current smoking is the main epidemiological factor that can predict the tendency for being non-responder. The potential of baseline ESR and DAS28 values as biomarkers for clinical response to etanercept in RA patients was identified by Receiver operating characteristic(ROC) analysis.

Published: July 2022

Environment is one of global issues humans are facing today. The worsening condition of global environmental cannot be apart from various problems from garbage, logging, and air pollution due to industrial or transportation activities as the main factors of the environmental crisis. The basic principles of ecology are to protect, maintain, utilize and preserve the environment for the life of future generations. In the context of power, the idea of ecology and environmental sovereignty is related between God, humans and nature. The results of this study showed that Islam is very concerned with these environmental issues as proven through many discussions contained in classical fiqh literature, such as discussion of thaharah (cleanliness), ihya al-mawat (opening the unused land), al-musaqat and al-muzara’ah (utilization of land belonging to others), laws related to the sale and purchase and ownership of water, fire and salt, the rights of pets and other issues related to the environment around humans.

Published: July 2022

Learning is a complex system that requires multiple perspectives and levels of study to understand players’ context, dynamics, and interactions, especially those related to technological innovation. This paper aims to identify some of the most promising trends in the adoption of blended learning in higher education and the capabilities that technology provides (e.g., ratification) and the contexts in which these capabilities are used. This literature review selected and analyzed 45 peer-reviewed journal articles. The findings highlight some of the capabilities of digital education technology. In particular, digital tools or platforms that support human-machine interaction can help enhance automated processes to deliver blended learning. Digital technologies such as video capsules and intelligent guidance systems can help improve teaching and learning in this context. To start, by increasing student access and facilitating independent online learning activities. Second, by providing a personalized learning path for each student, increasing opportunities for activities and feedback outside the classroom. Educational technology capabilities contribute to the identification of optimal approaches to align learning objectives in technology-based implementation. Additional research will be needed to validate these findings empirically.

A Simbiose Entre Filosofia E Ciência: as possibilidades em Arthur Schopenhauer
Authors: Alves Ramonn
Published: July 2022

Esta pesquisa tem o interesse em destacar alguns aspectos específicos da filosofia de Arthur Schopenhauer, em particular a recepção e o uso das ciências naturais em conjunto com sua Metafísica da Vontade. O trabalho enfoca inicialmente os aspectos da formação científica do filósofo, adquirida em Göttingen, onde ele tem contato com vários naturalistas de sua época, que se dedicam ao estudo e a pesquisa de diversos campos das ciências empíricas. A questão que se coloca no texto é: compreender como o autor utiliza as pesquisas e descobertas no campo das ciências naturais, trazendo à sua argumentação filosófica campos de estudo como anatomia e fisiologia. Portanto, a tarefa deste trabalho é investigar: como essa estrutura oferece fundamento para uma metafísica que se propõe imanente? Considerando a argumentação do autor pertinente ao debate entre filosofia e ciência (como é perceptível na obra Sobre a vontade na natureza, 1836), encontramos  conjuntamente estímulo em um dos aspectos mais originais de sua filosofia; a inversão conceitual que o autor faz, reconhecendo a racionalidade como “instrumento” de uma vontade irracional; ganhando assim uma nova perspectiva de interpretação da natureza humana para a discussão de seu tempo, que busca harmonizar o discurso filosófico com os achados empíricos da ciência.
Dever De Assistência E Modelos De Responsabilidade
Authors: Nascimento Matheus
Published: July 2022

Nosso objetivo neste artigo é discutir o problema da demanda excessiva(overdemandingness) colocada pelos modelos de responsabilidade de assistência na discussão sobre pobreza mundial. Tomaremos a abordagem de Singer como paradigmática e argumentaremos que seu grau de exigência gera um impasse teórico na discussão. Este impasse, acreditamos, só pode ser resolvido recorrendo a outros modelos de responsabilidade, e.g., o modelo causal. Isso implica rejeitar uma das principais pressuposições metodológicas de Singer, a saber, a separação entre aspectos factuais e normativos da discussão. Nossa estratégia, porém, ainda pressupõe o pano de fundo do modelo de assistência, que deve apenas ser especificado por outros modelos. Com isso pretendemos mostrar que a acusação frequente de implausibilidadelevantada contra a abordagem de Singer não é principalmente uma questão do conteúdo do dever imposto. Mas sim da força moral das razões oferecidas pelos modelos de assistência para fundamentar deveres.
PROJETOS DECOLONIAS NA AMÉRICA LATINA: O ROMANCE HISTÓRICO LATINO-AMERICANO E A DUPLA DESCOLONIZAÇÃO EPISTEMOLÓGICA
Authors: Mendez Hugo Eliecer Dorado , Fleck Gilmei Francisco
Published: July 2022

No presente artigo, temos por objetivo estabelecer bases epistemológicas a partir das quais se viabilize a realização de um estudo de literatura comparada focado no gênero romance histórico em correlação com os estudos decoloniais no contexto latino-americano. Dessa maneira, em primeira instância, desenvolvemos uma pesquisa bibliográfica a respeito do pensamento decolonial e seu desdobramento teórico no contexto da América Latina. Examinamos e determinamos conceitos essenciais para a pesquisa, tais como: o giro decolonial, o pensamento fronteiriço, a matriz colonial e opção decolonial; e estabelecemos algumas pautas para a diferenciação dos conceitos colonialismo/colonialidade, e seus derivados. No segundo momento, abordamos aspectos essenciais da crítica e da teoria contemporânea a respeito do gênero romance histórico, apontando para as peculiaridades das fases e das modalidades em que alguns teóricos classificam as produções do gênero. Vinculamos ambas as discussões para chegar à compreensão das vias pelas quais o romance histórico latino-americano pode ser contemplado e examinado como uma prática da opção decolonial: um exercício do pensamento fronteiriço. Baseamo-nos nos postulados sobre o romance histórico nas obras de Menton (1993), Del Pozo González (2017) e Fleck (2017) e nos estudos decoloniais de Quijano (1988, 2000), Dusell (1994) e Mignolo (2000; 2007), entre outros.

Al posicionarnos en un escenario de resguardo sanitario, donde realizar clases virtuales se torna una necesidad, se manifiestan una serie de dificultades a nivel comunicacional, afectivo y sobre la experiencia educativa en general, que perjudica en específico al cuerpo del estudiantado universitario y su capacidad para generar vínculos y comunidades orgánicas. Comprendemos entonces la clase presencial como un espacio de interacción por medio de códigos corporales y estímulos sensoriales tangibles, los cuales al pasar a formato de videoconferencia se ven reducidos a la mediación de un único espacio visual, de interfaz cuadrada y sonoridad por lo general desfasada por el vaivén de la señal.
Diseñando Diseñadores. La educación del diseño en Latinoamérica
Authors: Ortega Nestor Damian
Published: July 2022

El presente texto pretende explorar desde diversos enfoques la tarea de “enseñar diseño” en Latinoamérica, claramente será una aproximación ya que igual que las diversas disciplinas proyectuales referentes al diseño, la labor de reunir e integrar un pensamiento hegemónico resultaría imposible. Sin embargo plantea los retos, los enfoques y las construcciones que han moldeado la enseñanza del diseño en la región, desde las problemáticas y carencias sociales, hasta la demanda de las industrias y los sectores productivos, exigencias que las sociedades, los gobiernos y las instituciones de enseñanza han transformado en planes de estudio, currículos y programas de aprendizaje ¿Cómo se enseña el diseño en Latinoamérica? ¿Quiénes somos los que enseñamos diseño? ¿Se puede enseñar a diseñar? ¿El aula es un espacio de identidad, es un espacio político? ¿El pensamiento ideológico del docente de diseño debe jugar un papel importante en los desafíos actuales? Son algunas de las preguntas que darán hilo conductor al texto y que aspiran colocar una máxima en el centro del debate de la enseñanza del diseño ¿diseñamos diseñadores?
¿Hacia una Revolución en el Diseño Inclusivo en tiempos de crisis? Experiencias interdisciplinares en usabilidad e inclusión
Authors: Fox Igualt Alan
Published: July 2022

La calidad de vida de las personas se ha visto visiblemente afectada, desde la precariedad que la ciudad presenta en sus dispositivos y sistemas, los que distan de involucrar valores significativos de inclusión en cuanto a usabilidad. Actualmente, la crisis sanitaria global (Covid-19), nos presenta nuevos e ingentes desafíos a la sociedad, debiendo ellos abordarse de manera integral, co-diseñando las respuestas en modo interdisciplinar. No sólo las personas consideradas tradicionalmente como “discapacitadas” caben en este análisis, sino que estos dinámicos cambios en el cotidiano afectan a toda la población. Hay que considerar que hoy, más que nunca, todas y todos tenemos, en distinta medida, una cierta condición de vulnerabilidad ante el entorno de lo construido. En la vereda de la “primera línea” debieran estar los diseñadores, cuya misión social esencial es responder y más aún anticiparse a las necesidades de las personas, y responder así a los requerimientos objetuales-visuales funcionales de nuestra cada vez más impredecible, dinámica y compleja vida en la sociedad actual. El “Diseño Inclusivo”, “Diseño Universal”, es un área de la disciplina que, en ese sentido, aporta quizás la parte del diseño más cercana a la persona humana, y la crisis lo llama a renovarse con bríos.
Trascendencia del patrimonio gráfico industrial en la identidad territorial del Gran Concepción
Authors: Moreno Vega María de los Ángeles
Published: July 2022

Durante la primera mitad del siglo XX el diseño gráfico al sur de Chile aún no era una disciplina denominada como tal, y las escuelas de diseño no habían abierto sus puertas, pero aún así hubo prácticas comunicacionales donde destrezas típicamente atribuidas a las artes visuales fueron utilizadas en función de los objetivos de la industria, impactando positivamente en el posicionamiento de los productos y en la fidelización de los clientes. Esta integración de los recursos gráficos en las estrategias de la industria manufacturera fue particularmente importante para el polo industrial del Gran Concepción. Tanto así, que en la actualidad las marcas más icónicas de la historia de la ciudad, así como sus logos, etiquetas y ornamentos característicos, son parte fundamental de su identidad territorial y del patrimonio cultural local. El presente artículo reflexiona en torno a la relación entre el desarrollo del sector manufacturero, el fortalecimiento de la gráfica local y la huella que dejó esta asociatividad en el imaginario colectivo de los habitantes del Gran Concepción de ayer y hoy, comprendiendo el contexto socioeconómico, político y tecnológico que lo favoreció, e indagando en las razones por las cuales ciertos diseños son tan significativos para esta comunidad.
Moda, sostenibilidad y nuevas tecnologías: la protección por el derecho brasileño
Authors: Pansini Fernanda , Da Silva José Thaielly
Published: July 2022

Este artículo tiene como objetivo demostrar cómo se protegen las marcas de moda sustentables en Brasil, sin embargo, la protección será analizada desde la perspectiva de la innovación tecnológica y especialmente en relación con la agenda de la ONU 2030, en la que la moda está directamente relacionada con los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS). Así, analizaremos el perfil del mercado de la moda brasileña, sus objetivos y programas de responsabilidad con el desarrollo sostenible a través del uso de innovaciones relacionadas con la moda sostenible, analizando cómo pueden protegerse bajo la propiedad intelectual.
El uso publicitario de marcas de moda ajenas en internet (complementariedad entre propiedad intelectual y competencia desleal)
Authors: Carbajo Cascón Fernando
Published: July 2022

Es frecuente la utilización publicitaria de marcas ajenas –especialmente de productos de moda y complementos– como palabras clave vinculadas a enlaces publicitarios en motores de búsqueda de Internet. Este problema ha sido abordado y resuelto por la doctrina del Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea y tribunales nacionales de Estados miembros de la Unión, entre ellos el Tribunal Supremo español de forma netamente formalista, cerrando en falso un problema relevante de nuestro tiempo, a la vista de la importancia que tiene el posicionamiento marcario en el mercado digital. La solución más adecuada del problema pasa por un examen de la posible infracción marcaria en clave de competencia desleal (analizando el caso no tanto por la forma del comportamiento como por sus efectos en el mercado), o bien por dejar mayor espacio a la aplicación de la doctrina de la complementariedad relativa para resolver el caso a través del derecho de competencia desleal, mucho más adecuado para situaciones que dependen fundamentalmente de las circunstancias concretas que concurren en cada caso.

La Metáfora Orgánica
Authors: Cravino Ana
Published: July 2022

El Proyecto de Investigación 3.8 organiza su enfoque en relación a la metáfora orgánica, la búsqueda de respuesta en la naturaleza, la biomímesis y las nuevas/ viejas formas de producción de forma y su relación con la materialidad. La mirada desde la teoría de la complejidad que nos impone el diseño nos invita a volver a las fuentes, conceptos como fractales, estructuras disipativas, auto-organización, analogía, mímesis y redes autopoiéticas se hacen frecuentes en el discurso del diseño, que se despliega en toda su profundidad destacando los diferentes niveles de significación. En este sentido la noción de metáfora es primordial para la instrumentación conceptual, rigurosa de las lógicas proyectuales poéticas que determinan la producción de formas estéticamente intencionadas que constituyen nuestro entorno físico y cultural.

La historieta desbordada y estallada. Un lenguaje mutante
Authors: Vazquez Laura , Turnes Pablo , Gandolfo Amadeo
Published: July 2022

El Proyecto de Investigación 12.5 se propone abordar e investigar como en el transcurso de poco más de un siglo, la historieta ha ido transformándose tanto desde sus formatos como desde sus definiciones. Se indagará este particular estado según tres ejes: (1) el de la intertextualidad, continuidad, y meta-ficcionalidad, (2) el de los nuevos espacios, formatos, y materialidades y (3) a través de lo se denomina “artista anfibio”. El siglo XXI encuentra a la historieta desbordando largamente sus supuestas características esenciales a favor de nuevos medios, lecturas, reescrituras y usos inesperados.
