Introducción: frente a la identificación de la ocurrencia de un brote de COVID19 en el Barrio de Villa Azul y dadas las características de vulnerabilidad del barrio que dificultarían cumplir con el aislamiento domiciliario y las medidas de prevención se implementó una estrategia de aislamiento comunitario como respuesta sanitaria al brote.   

Objetivo: describir la estrategia de aislamiento comunitario utilizada en el Barrio de Villa Azul para contener y mitigar un brote de COVID19.

Métodos: Se identificaron los límites del barrio y se procedió al cierre del mismo con fuerzas de seguridad. Quedó permitida la circulación por dentro del barrio asumiendo que todos los habitantes eran casos sospechosos de COVID19 o bien eran contactos estrechos de algún caso. En los días subsiguientes se continuó con la búsqueda activa de casos sospechosos de COVID19, se realizaron los hisopados en el barrio y se obtuvieron los resultados a las 24 horas. Todos los días, luego de la recepción de los casos se les informaba el resultado a los casos negativos y se iba a las casas de los casos positivos para notificarlos del resultado y sugerirles el aislamiento fuera del barrio para cortar la cadena de contagios.

Resultados: En el barrio Villa Azul entre el 22 de mayo y el 20 de junio se registraron 731 casos sospechosos de los cuales 379 fueron casos confirmados para COVID19 (tasa de positividad acumulada del 52,1%). La primera semana hubo entre 20 y 40 casos confirmados diarios con un índice de positividad entre el 66 y 81% pero con el correr del tiempo como consecuencia de la estrategia descripta fueron bajando el número de casos por día y también la positividad. Se trasladaron 193 traslados de pacientes confirmados para aislarse afuera del barrio. Fallecieron 3 personas, todas con comorbilidades (tasa de letalidad 0,8%). 

Discusión: La estrategia de aislamiento comunitario resultó efectiva para contener el brote de COVID19 en el Barrio de Villa Azul. La posibilidad de garantizar de forma diaria la búsqueda activa de casos, sumado a la posibilidad de hisoparlos en el barrio y a las 24 horas tener el resultado, sugiriendo luego el traslado fuera del mismo de los confirmados para COVID19 fueron algunas de las claves.

A pandemia de COVID-19 acarretou impactos biopsicossociais à saúde individual e coletiva. O objetivo do estudo foi analisar a adesão ao distanciamento social, as repercussões no estado de ânimo e mudanças nos estilos de vida da população adulta brasileira durante o início da pandemia da COVID-19. Trata-se de estudo transversal com indivíduos adultos residentes no Brasil (n = 45.161) que participaram do inquérito de saúde virtual ConVid - Pesquisa de Comportamentos, no período de 24 de abril a 24 de maio de 2020. A coleta de dados foi realizada via web, utilizando-se de um questionário autopreenchido. Foram calculadas as prevalências e intervalo de 95% de confiança das variáveis estudadas. Da amostra estudada, apenas 1,5% levou vida normal, sem nenhuma restrição social e 75% ficaram em casa, sendo que destes 15% ficaram rigorosamente em casa. Os sentimentos frequentes de tristeza ou depressão (35,5%), isolamento (41,2%) e ansiedade (41,3%) foram reportados por grande parte da população estudada. Verificou-se 17% dos participantes reportaram aumento do consumo de bebidas alcoólicas e de 34% dos fumantes aumentaram o número de cigarros. Observou-se aumento no consumo de alimentos não saudáveis e redução da prática de atividade física no período estudado. Conclui-se que houve elevada adesão ao distanciamento social e aumento dos sentimentos de tristeza, depressão e ansiedade, bem como aumento de consumo de alimentos não saudáveis, uso de bebidas alcóolicas e cigarros e redução da prática de atividade física. Essas mudanças são preocupantes e podem resultar em danos à saúde individual e coletiva a médio e longo prazo.
Electropositive seizures and non‐convulsive status epilepticus in a critically ill patient with prior skull defect
Authors: Moores Margaret , Picheca Christopher , Fantaneanu Tadeu A.
Published: October 2020

Epileptiform discharges captured on routine scalp EEG typically carry a surface negative dipole. We present a patient whose continuous EEG recording in the intensive care setting captured frequent electropositive non‐convulsive seizures. Epileptiform discharges with positive polarity are common in the pediatric population but have rarely been reported in adult patients. When reported in adults, such patients usually have skull defects. As surface positive discharges are scarce, adult electroencephalographers should be prudent to differentiate such discharges from artifact, particularly in an intensive care setting where EEG artifact is common.
The role of EEG in patients with suspected epilepsy

Published: October 2020

Despite the advances in imaging, EEG remains a critical test for the diagnosis of epilepsy. Not only can it confirm the diagnosis, but it can also clarify the type of epilepsy. There are many different types of EEG recordings depending on duration, the presence of video, and inpatient or outpatient setting, each with its pros and cons. Interictal epileptiform abnormalities are very specific to epilepsy, but they can be over‐interpreted by inexperienced readers. In addition to diagnosis of epilepsy, EEG also has a role in the decision to discontinue treatment in seizure‐free patients, and in assessing critically ill patients for possible status epilepticus and encephalopathies. EEG reports should be relatively standardized and clear to the clinician who requested the EEG.
Reputation and Investor Activism: A Structural Approach
Authors: Swem Nathan , Johnson Travis L.
Published: October 2020

We measure the impact of reputation for proxy fighting on investor activism by estimating a dynamic model in which activists engage a sequence of target firms. Our estimation produces an evolving reputation measure for each activist and quantifies its impact on campaign frequency and outcomes. We find that high reputation activists initiate 3.5 times as many campaigns and extract 85% more settlements from targets, and that reputation-building incentives explain 20% of campaign initiations and 19% of proxy fights. Our estimates indicate these reputation effects combine to nearly double the value activism adds for target shareholders.
Perfect etiquette
Authors: Synek Michal
Published: October 2020

As a starting point for this article, the concept of diplomatic ethnography inspired by the work of Bruno Latour is presented as an ideal: a model for ‘good anthropology’, which truthfully follows members’ actions and the associations they form with others, simultaneously respecting their values. The workability of this ideal is then ethnographically tested in a research setting where direct communication with actors about the results of the researcher’s work is inescapable, while arriving at a common description of networks and values is difficult, as one group of actors routinely disqualifies members of another group by including them in the strongly naturalised category of ‘people with mental impairment’. How to understand and interpret the life of Pete, a resident of a ‘home for persons with health impairment’, who strives to rein in his hearty appetite while those taking care of him describe him as a ‘wicked child’ whose actions reflect only his syndrome? On the basis of my negotiations about his case, I come to the conclusion that the project of diplomatic ethnography is viable, if the obduracy of the ordering arrangements is duly taken into account and values are honoured, and, while arguing with members is inevitable under given circumstances, it is potentially productive for envisioning change in existing modes of ordering.

Published: October 2020

South African adolescents consume relatively low fruit and vegetables in spite of the development of foodbased dietary guidelines for South Africa. The aims and objectives of the present study were to investigate parents’ perception of their role in the prevention of the health compromising behaviour of inadequate consumption of fruit and vegetables among adolescents in South Africa. The study design was qualitative and exploratory and the research strategy used was inductive, deductive and abductive. Using a guiding question schedule data were collected from five focus group interviews. A non-probability purposive theoretical sampling method was utilized and the sample size of 37 determined by theoretical saturation. Data analysis was performed using the grounded theory approach. The findings of the study suggest that children should be introduced to fruit and vegetables as early as possible. The study recommends that infants should be exposed to the taste of locally available fruit and vegetables followed by the gradual introduction of fruit and vegetables into their diet together with a variety of other nutrientdense foods when solid foods are being introduced.

Published: October 2020

Introduction. Healthcare professionals who participate in regular exercise better manage job related stressors, utilize fewer sick days, and discuss fitness with patients at increased rates. Although resident physicians are aware of the health benefits of exercise their rates of exercise are much lower than among medical trainees and practicing physicians. Resident physicians have reported lack of time for traditional structured workouts as one of the greatest barriers to fitness. This study sought to increase resident physician well-being by providing brief workouts through a motivational fitness curriculum.

Methods. This pilot study utilized a nonexperimental design; a pre-/post-intervention consisted of a 10-month motivational fitness curriculum. Thirteen family medicine residents at a training program in the midwestern United States participated in this study. The Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) and the Abbreviated Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI-9) were used to measure the participants’ well-being, pre- and post-curriculum. Standard descriptive statistics and paired samples t-test were used to analyze the data.

Results. Twenty-eight percent (13/36) of eligible first-year and second-year family medicine resident physicians participated in the study. On the DASS-21, study participants displayed an improvement in depression, anxiety, and stress scores post-curriculum. On the MBI-9, the participants reported decreased score in emotional exhaustion, but there were no changes in depersonalization and personal accomplishment scores over time.Conclusion. A motivational fitness curriculum may be a convenient way to support well-being among resident physicians. These findings were salient, as graduate medical education programs can implement similar initiatives to support resident physicians’ psychological and physical well-being.

Published: October 2020

В соответствии с современным теоретическим осмыслением молодежи как значимой социальной когорты общества молодежную политику следует понимать, как целенаправленную организацию действий определенных структур (институтов) общества, направленную на утверждение у молодежи определенных ценностно-нормативных систем. Молодежная политика может быть определена как инструмент процесса социализации молодежи. Внешняя молодежная политика, направленная на вовлечение молодых соотечественников, проживающих за рубежом, в процесс гражданской социализации, в свою очередь опирается на инструмент политической социализации. Важность данного вида социализации для утверждения норм и ценностей государственности предопределена современными условиями глобализации всех сфер жизнедеятельности общества.

46 oil samples were collected at the wellheads of different wells of a particular oil field and “oil fingerprinting” was performed by gas chromatographic analysis on LTM-MD-GC in order to understand the fluid connectivity of the reservoir within the field. This field located in the eastern edge of the Caspian Basin. According to the results of cluster analyzes, it was found that the studied samples of the north-eastern part of the oil field differ from those of the south-western part. Since the oil field has a massive reservoir height, all wells operate with minimum water-cut values, except for the production well. In this regard, the ionic composition of the water and the titration method were used to analyze the ionic composition of water, separated from the oil of producing well, two neighboring injection wells and block cluster pumping station of this field, to determine the ionic composition and identify differences and similarities of waters at the molecular level. According to the results of the analyzes, we came to the conclusion that all the studied formation water samples have common origin. The relatively high NaCl value in producing well water may be due to the high concentration of chloride in the oil.

The salt water omposition of underground brines of the Vendian - Lower Cambrian sections of the Middle Botuoba oil-gas-condensate field during the catagenesis stage is considered; the peculiarity of which is the presence of polygenic waters in certain block traps of B5 and Б1 levels: sodium sulfate, sodium hydrogencarbonate and chlorine-magnesium genetic types together with the prevailing chlorine-calcium genetic type. The zoning of the groundwater of the strata by mineralization and four genetic types of groundwater has been carried out. The directions of water entry into the reservoirs formed at the stage of catagenesis and entering together with hydrocarbons in the corresponding traps are established. It is shown that, while maintaining the mechanism of formation of the salt water composition in the "rock-water" system, the polygenicity of the formation waters present simultaneously in one reservoir layer reflects a regular change in the components of their chemical composition during the transition from the artesian basin to the oil and gas basin. The most sensitive ions of the chemical composition of groundwater, reflecting the transition of the artesian basin to the new geological state of the catagenesis stage, are sulfate, bicarbonate, and sodium ions.

Student agency serves as a key factor in student success at university, and a crucial factor in distance learning. The forced transition to teaching with distance educational technologies eased external regulation and showed a picture of student agency. This study aims to describe how instructors assess student agency and how it changes with distance learning. Our study is based on the data from 27 interviews with instructors from 12 Russian leading universities. Interviews were held in two waves: before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. In this study, we analyze how the learning process is organized usually and in the new conditions, how instructors assess students’ agency in traditional and distance learning, and we also present instructors’ forecast for the future and practices that they plan to continue using when the quarantine is over.
Towards a new conceptualization of Learning to Learn
Authors: Caena Francesca , Stringher Cristina
Published: October 2020

Aprender a aprender se destaca en investigación y políticas del nuevo milenio; ha ocupado la escena educativa en Europa, antes y después de la Recomendación del 2006 sobre Competencias clave. Sin embargo, aprender a aprender está etiquetado por algunos como concepto no científico, que requiere una definición acordada (Coffield, 2002). Lo que parece carecer es una comprensión de cómo funciona y cómo se puede reconocer en los individuos; de hecho, la mayoría de las investigaciones que mencionan este tema abordan otros conceptos relacionados. Una iniciativa política relevante siguió a la revisión de 2018 de las Competencias clave: el desarrollo de un marco de referencia europeo para la competencia Personal, Social y de Aprender a Aprender. ¿Cuál es su justificación y qué posición ocupa frente a la teoría? ¿Cómo pueden beneficiarse los alumnos y los profesionales? Este artículo tiene como objetivo ofrecer ideas teóricas y políticas, trabajando hacia una definición madura de aprender a aprender que abarca aspectos personales y sociales. Con un enfoque pedagógico clave para desplegar esta competencia en la práctica, se propone un modelo de desarrollo informado y práctico de cómo este complejo conjunto de conocimientos, habilidades y actitudes puede operar a lo largo de la vida. Después de todo, no hay nada tan práctico como una buena teoría (Lewin, 1951).Palabras clave: Aprender a aprender; desarrollo personal; competencias socioemocionales; competencias clave europeas; enfoque pedagógico; modelo de desarrollo.
Teachers’ conception of Learning to learn in Brazil and Italy: a qualitative comparative exploration
Authors: Stringher Cristina , Davis Leme Claudia , Scrocca Francesca
Published: October 2020

Aprender a Aprender (AaA) es un concepto central en el desarrollo individual, frecuentemente desatendido en los currículos. Es una compleja reflexión sobre el aprendizaje que moviliza componentes cognitivos, metacognitivos y socio-afectivos-motivacionales, tales como auto confianza, producción de conocimiento sobre el propio aprendizaje, proactividad, mejora y compartición de aprendizaje. Todo lo anterior con la finalidad de enfrentar la incertidumbre y dar sentido a la realidad. Los maestros están en una posición importante para ayudar a los estudiantes a desarrollar esta híper-competencia. El propósito de este estudio cualitativo es describir las concepciones de AaA en los docentes brasileños e italianos, resultando en una comparación particularmente informativa dado que ambos países enfrentan desafíos similares en la implementación del AaA en situaciones concretas dentro del aula. Empleamos un enfoque de teoría-práctica-teoría con una entrevista semi estructurada adaptada para ambos países. El análisis descriptivo de 42 entrevistas muestra que los maestros tienen una concepción positiva aún estrecha de AaA. Solo una minoría proporcionó una definición elaborada, consecuentemente los docentes necesitan capacitación específica para ayudar a los estudiantes a aprender cómo aprender. Se destacan las implicaciones para las políticas y para la investigación futura. Los currículos necesitan un enfoque específico sobre AaA para que los docentes lo implementen y los investigadores necesitan profundizar las relaciones entre la concepción de AaA y las prácticas docentes en el aula.Palabras clave: aprender a aprender; definiciones docentes de aprender a aprender; estudio cualitativo comparativo sobre aprender a aprender; aprender a aprender en Brasil e Italia

today, the traditional nature of the activities of the national states and business structures in the space sector has been modified. Favorable legal conditions laid the foundation for increasing the role of private space agencies on the world stage. New business structures related to space issues. The American company SpaceX, in particular, the design of this company under the name “Starlink” provides access to high-performance Internet technologies in all territories through the use of satellite technology of 1200 satellites, which are of interest in the analysis of existing space programs. This Starlink program is a political research methodology that allows you to investigate the possible threat of state space programs. The results of this work can be taken as a basis for future developers. In the end, the author came to the conclusion that there is a threat of monopolization of the space sphere, which requires additional study and discussion at the level of government states.

the study assessed the assets and welfare conditions of the left-behind migrant households in the Ekumfi District of Ghana during the absence of remittance receipts. The Asset-Based Welfare Paradigm informed the study. Using the multi-stage sampling procedure, 377 left-behind migrant household heads were sampled and administered with survey questionnaires. Descriptive statistical methods and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) were used for data analyses. This was supplemented with in-depth interviews from eight key informants. The results showed that apart from food, economic and financial indices, the other existing stocks of assets did not enhance the welfare conditions of the left-behind migrant households. The study concluded that generally left-behind migrant households had depriving assets and welfare conditions during the absence of remittance receipts. Additionally, government’s social intervention and development programmes enhanced the assets and welfare conditions of the left-behind migrant households. The study therefore recommended that the Government of Ghana should extend the provision of social support services beyond free healthcare and education and include basic asset indices such as housing, water, sanitation, economic, financial, food, gender equity and access to social organisation to cushion the welfare conditions of the left-behind migrant households during the absence of remittance receipts.

Book Review of Canadian Justice, Indigenous Injustice by Kent Roach
Authors: Zahreddine Dalia
Published: October 2020

Kent Roach’s Canadian Justice, Indigenous Injustice (2019) analyzes the highly divisive and contested acquittal of fifty-six-year-old white cattle farmer, Gerald Stanley, in the 2018 case involving the death of twenty-two-year-old Cree man, Colton Boushie. The book argues that this particular case highlights the striking disadvantages that Indigenous Peoples continue to face within the criminal justice system. However, though well intentioned, Roach’s book is not without its problems, and ultimately, fails to sufficiently prove that the root of Gerald Stanley’s acquittal was solely attributed to systemic racism or Indigenous victimization. The arguments, lacking Indigenous opinions and consultation, essentially devolved into a demonstration of Roach’s confirmation bias.

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) affects 2-25% of pregnancies depending on population characteristics and criteria used. It is associated with an increased risk of fetal malformation and perinatal mortality. The aim of the study was to know the prevalence of GDM, the risk factors associated with women with GDM and the feto-maternal outcome.Methods: A prospective study conducted among 200 antenatal women attending Obstetrics and Gynaecology (OBG) Outpatient Department in A. J. Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Center from March 2019 to August 2019. GDM was diagnosed with 2-hour 75 gm oral glucose tolerance test according to diabetes in pregnancy study group of India (DIPSI) criteria. Basic demographic details and maternal and fetal outcomes were analysed.Results: The prevalence of GDM was high (24.5%) compared to other studies. Normoglycemia was achieved with diet alone in 71.5%, diet and metformin in 16.3% and 12.2% with insulin. Risk factors included higher body mass index (BMI) and history of GDM. Emergency caesarean rate was higher among GDM women (p<0.05). Fetal complications and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admissions were also higher in this group (p<0.001 and p<0.05).Conclusions: The higher prevalence shows the importance of early detection and timely intervention for pregnancy complicated with GDM. Due to this high-risk pregnancy, there’s increased incidence of maternal and fetal outcomes which can be reduced with glycaemic control and adequate fetal surveillance.

Published: October 2020

Background: Perinatal asphyxia is a condition resulting from deprivation of oxygen to a neonate that lasts long enough to cause damage to the brain. Perinatal asphyxia is one of the major causes of early neonatal mortality in India. The goal was to evaluate outcomes of asphyxiated babies. Methods: One hundred consecutive neonates with birth asphyxia (Apgar 0-3 at 5-minute of age) were studied. Data from medical records of all babies with perinatal asphyxia admitted were retrieved and documented for the study.Results: Majority of the neonates are inborn (57%). Male to female ratio was 1.5:1. Spontaneous vaginal delivery constitute 32% and lower segment caesarean section (LSCS) 36%. Mortality was highest in hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) stage 3 with 11%. Mean duration of hospitalization is directly related to Sarnat and Sarnat staging of HIE. 22% babies were having neurological sequelae and discharged on anti-convulsant. 21% mortality, majority were outborn.Conclusions: Despite advances in the management of neonates, perinatal asphyxia is still the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Perinatal asphyxia is still prevalent despite medical advances. Babies with HIE stage III had poor outcome. Appropriate strategies required to minimize the neuro-developmental sequelae.

Published: October 2020

Thoracic CT is the most common imaging modality used after screening with chest x-ray in treatment of lung pathologies. But high cost, radiation, immobility & availability restrict its widespread use. For many years transthoracic ultrasound is being used in examination of pleural effusions in ICU patients. To study the role of chest ultrasonography in diagnosing pleural & parenchymal pathologies in OPD patients this study was carried out.

32 adult patientswithdyspnoea, cough & other chest symptoms coming to OPD ofpulmonary department of Santosh hospitals from January 2017 to July 2018 were enrolled in the study.

In diagnosing pleural lung diseases- pleural effusion, pneumothorax, hydropneumothorax and pleural thickening, US showed a sensitivity, specificity, PPV & NPV all of 100% and accuracy of 1.00. But for parenchymal lesions taken all together (Consolidation, collapse, atelectasis, lung abscess, fibrocavitary lesion with necrosis, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, bleb/ bulla) it showed low accuracy of 0.62 with 42.86% sensitivity, 86.36% specificity, 80% positive and 54.29% negative predictive values respectively.

Thoracic US offers fast, cheap, safe, radiation free, widely available, easily reproducible and non-invasive diagnostic modality for evaluating pleural lung diseases in OPD patients. But low sensitivity in diagnosis of parenchymal diseases is not encouraging.
Evaluating on Topology Survivability Based on Largest Number of Node-Disjoint Paths
Authors: Chen Qiurong
Published: October 2020

On the point of view of Largest Number of Node-Disjoint Path (LNNDP for short) between a node pair in a network, this article states the importance of LNNDP to global survivability of topology at first, then proposes an algorithm to compute maximal number of node-disjoint paths between node pairs. A new topology survivability metric based on LNNDP is put forward to evaluate the global survivability of network topology. It can be used to evaluate the survivability of topology provided. This metric can express accurately global topology survivability.

Рабоче-крестьянская милиция Острогожского округа Центрально-Черноземной области в начале «великого перелома»
Authors: Рылов Владимир Юрьевич , Зверков Евгений Андреевич
Published: October 2020

На протяжении почти трёх десятилетий – начиная с 1917 года – российская правоохранительная система подвергалась практически непрерывному реформированию. Качественная сторона реформ, направленная на оптимизацию деятельности советских ОВД, в течение 1920-х гг. не являлась, однако, приоритетным направлением. Гораздо большее значение имело следование формальным нормам «революционной законности» и превращения милиции в«народный» орган, для чего кадровый состав службы искусственно пополнялся рабочими, а в уездных (позднее – районных) городах – крестьянами. В рассматриваемой статье, посвященной милиции Острогожского округа Центрально-Чернозёмной области, рассматривается влияние описанных политических установок на качество деятельности милиции. На примере окружной милиции Острогожска исследуется влияние внешних и внутренних условий на функционирование правоохранительной системы – административной реформы 1928 года, растущего уровня преступности, проблем кадрового обеспечения милиции. Следствием сложившегося комплексафакторов стало ухудшение криминогенной ситуации в округе.
