Políticas y prácticas para la gestión del riesgo de desastres en gobiernos locales argentinos: análisis colaborativo entre actores académicos y gubernamentales
Authors: Fontana Silvia E. , Conrero Sofía
Published: January 2023

La gestión del riesgo de desastres (GRD) ha comenzado a tratarse en las agendas gubernamentales como un proceso que conduce al planeamiento y aplicación de políticas, estrategias, instrumentos y medidas que debe ser asumido por todos los sectores de la sociedad. Este enfoque supone un desafío para los gobiernos, quienes se ven interpelados por la necesidad de dar respuestas a situaciones de crisis generadas por fenómenos naturales o antrópicos, a través de la participación social y el trabajo colaborativo. En estas agendas se aborda especialmente la necesidad de que los gobiernos locales se transformen en actores clave para generar soluciones. El artículo tiene por objetivo analizar la incorporación de normas, reglas y discursos internacionales sobre la GRD en las políticas y prácticas de los gobiernos locales de la provincia de Córdoba (Argentina). Para ello se diseñó una matriz colaborativamente entre el ámbito académico y funcionarios de gobiernos locales. La hipótesis es que los gobiernos locales incorporan cambios a nivel discursivo y en componentes organizacionales más rápidamente que en la implementación de proyectos específicos. Además, se adoptan primero en procesos de toma de decisiones centralizados en los gobiernos locales, para luego incorporar procesos participativos que conduzcan a un enfoque de gobernanza.

Published: January 2023

Colombia es uno de los países de la región de América Latina y el Caribe (LAC) con mayores avances en Políticas Públicas (PPs) de protección financiera. Siguiendo el enfoque integral de la Gestión del Riesgo de Desastres (GRD) y mediante una revisión comprensiva del contexto internacional y (sub)nacional, este estudio analiza las PPs de transferencia del riesgo climático en Colombia y presenta retos y recomendaciones para superarlos, como referencia para la implementación de marcos de PP de transferencia del riesgo en otros países. Identificamos ocho PPs y realizamos una caracterización de las PPs de GRD y transferencia del riesgo a través de una matriz de análisis compuesta por 21 variables relacionadas con tres tipologías: referencia, contexto y contenido. Los resultados muestran que las PPs colombianas incluyen a la transferencia del riesgo ante fenómenos naturales, pero no se encuentra regulada en el nivel subnacional y presentan un enfoque ‘top-down’. Las limitantes identificadas se basan en la carencia de instrumentos de monitoreo y evaluación, así como de información sobre los procesos de consulta/participación.

The Investigation of Production Parameters and Their Effect on the Tribomechanical Properties of the Compression Molded Polymeric Bearing Materials
Authors: KAYA Esad
Published: January 2023

UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) is a widely used polymer due to its superior mechanical properties. The microstructural, mechanical, and tribological properties of this polymer material produced by the compression molding technique significantly depend on the production parameters. The different molding pressures and temperatures dramatically impact the properties of the material. In this study, UHMWPE polymer samples were produced at three different molding pressures (150 Bar, 250 Bar, and 350 Bar) and molding temperatures (120°C, 150°C, and 180°C) using the compression molding technique. The microstructural, mechanical, and tribological properties of the samples were examined. It is observed that low-temperature molding production parameters cause an increase in strength. On the other hand, this situation enables decreased ductility. It has been determined that as the molding temperatures increase, ductility increase in all the same molding pressure groups. Similarly, it was observed that increasing the molding pressure in the same temperature group increased the strength of the material. It has been determined that there is an optimum molding pressure and temperature for wear resistance. It has been observed that the coefficient of friction (COF) behavior is not much affected by the molding parameters. Agglomeration of polymer particles is envisaged as the main reason for forming optimum pressure and temperature conditions in wear resistance. Agglomerated particles in the microstructure reduce bonding strength and deteriorate wear resistance. The study determined the optimum molding pressure (250 Bar) and temperature (150°C) for the production of UHMWPE material by a compression molding technique.

Patient satisfaction at inpatient installations at Stella Maris Hospital and Faisal Islam Hospital in Makassar City will be analyzed and compared with respect to brand image, customer perceived value, and customer experience. The research in question is a quantitative cross-sectional study that employs an observational methodology. A total of 190 replies were included in this study, all of which were from patients being treated at either RS Stella Maris or RS Islam Faisal Makassar. Bivariate and multivariate univariate analysis were used to examine the data. Based on the data collected, it was determined that there was a link between patient happiness and brand equity, customer value perception, and customer service quality. Brand image had a significance level of 0.0000.05, and its value was 0.126. Value as seen by customers had a 0.0000.05 significance level, and nilai equaled 0.424. We found a value of B = 0.376 for customer satisfaction at a significance level of 0.0000.05. Management at both RS Stella Maris and RSI Faisal Makassar City would do well to regularly assess the hospitals' brand values, customer perceptions of those values, and the quality of care their patients receive, with suggestions for ways to enhance these metrics including faster service, clearer communication, and more accommodating scheduling.
Perinatal palliative care and the midwife’s roll
Authors: Blackwell Elli
Published: January 2023

Pain, uncertainty, discomfort and fear. Feelings that are associated with birth yet can also be associated with death. Midwives assist in the passageway into life and sadly, sometimes, this collides with the passageway into death. Antenatal screening and diagnostic testing enables disabilities and illnesses to be diagnosed, and those who wish to continue pregnancies where the fetus has been diagnosed with a life-limiting or fatal condition usually require perinatal palliative care, and the role of the midwife remains paramount during this time. Just as women, parents, families and babies need support and love coming into the world, they need this support and love going out of it.

Towards an Efficient and Coherent Regulatory Framework on Cybersecurity in the EU: The Proposals for a NIS 2.0 Directive and a Cyber Resilience Act
Authors: Schmitz-Berndt Sandra , Cole Mark
Published: January 2023

Cybersecurity regulation in the EU has long been implemented in a piecemeal fashion resulting in a fragmented regulatory landscape. Recent developments triggered the EU to review its approach which has not resulted in the envisaged high level of cyber resilience across the Union. The paper addresses the EU’s limited mandate to regulate cybersecurity and outlines how the internal market rationale serves as a basis to harmonise cybersecurity legislation in the EU Member States. In that regard, the recent Proposal for a NIS 2.0 Directive (adopted by the European Parliament in November 2022) and the Proposal for a Cyber Resilience Act (published in September 2022) highlight how the EU seeks to align legislation and reduce complexity between different, often sectoral reg- ulatory approaches to cybersecurity, while at the same time extending regulation in a view to achieve a high level of cybersecurity across the EU. As regards the latter, the paper also outlines how the Cyber Resilience Act will complement the NIS 2.0 Directive in order to close existing regulatory gaps.

Published: January 2023

The camel is practically symbolic for western arid region of Rajasthan. This animal has the immense contribution to livelihood of the Raika pastoral community who has a long relationship with this animal. Raikas followed their own traditional practices in all aspects of camel rearing including healthcare practices since time immemorial. Therefore, the present study was designed to document and appraise ethno-veterinary practices followed by the Raika pastoral community to cure important camel diseases like trypanosomiasis, camel pox and mange. A total 120 Raika pastoralists were interviewed from the six villages of Pali and Jodhpur district of Rajasthan on an open ended interview schedule to document the ethno-veterinary practices. Quantification of Indigenous Knowledge (QuIK) was applied for participatory assessment of the identified ethno-veterinary practices. The Raikas were using total 10 ethno-veterinary practices to cure the three diseases. Use of fruit of Withania coagulans (stock) Dunal was found to be most effective among the four identified practices to control camel trypanosomiasis (surra). Accordingly, use of neem leaves and; mixture of turmeric, butter and mustard oil were perceived as highly effective to cure camel pox and mange, respectively.

Published: January 2023

Anabolic steroids are widely abused in animal sports to improve their performance. The present study identifies the possible metabolites of boldenone in camel liver. A high-resolution accurate QE mass spectrometer was used to identify the parent boldenone and its metabolites. To investigate the phase 1 biotransformation of boldenone in camel, sodium phosphate buffer and NADPH were used. Chromatographic separation was carried out on a Thermo Hypersil C18 column using acetonitrile and formic acid as mobile phases. The current study, helped in unequivocal detection of six metabolites (Phase 1) for boldenone. The 17b-boldenone is an 3-oxo-Delta (1), Delta(4)-steroid substituted by an oxo group at position 3 and a beta-hydroxy group at position 17. It is prone to oxidation, which results in three hydroxylated metabolites with protonated parent ion of m/z 303.1954 (C19H27O3)+. Androsta-1,4-diene-3,17-dione [M+H]+ of m/z 285.1848 (C19H25O2+), hydroxyandrosta-1,4-diene-3,17-dione [M+H]+ of m/z 301.1797 (C19H25O3+) in addition to 17-hydroxy-androsta-1-en-3-one [M+H]+ of m/z 289.2162 (C19H29O2+) were also identified. The structures of the detected metabolites were identified based on their accurate mass, fragmentation pattern, and chromatographic retention time. In this research, camel liver was successfully used for in vitro experiments as an alternative to liver microsomes.
Management of tree fodder banks for quality forage production and carbon sequestration in humid tropical cropping systems – An overview
Authors: RAJ ASHA K , RAJ RESHMA M , KUNHAMU T K , JAMALUDHEEN V , CHICHAGHARE A R
Published: January 2023

Livestock forms an integral component of humid tropical cropping systems, providing food and financial security, employment, and insurance against crop failure for small scale farmers. However, livestock sector is seriously constrained by the drastic decline in fodder base and high cost of feeds, incurring huge economic loss to farmers. Hence fodder production should be intensified in cropping system by including alternate feeds like nutrient rich fodder trees and shrubs to supplement conventional fodder. Fodder trees serve as a potential source of quality green fodder to livestock especially during lean periods. Moreover, tree leaves can be cheaper feed supplements than the commercial concentrates and can easily be grown by the small-holder farmers. Leucaena, mulberry, kadamba, calliandra, agathi, moringa and gliricidia are promising fodder tress by virtue of their nutritive foliage, fast growing nature with higher biomass production, amenable to heavy pruning, good coppicing ability and easy management. Moreover, these trees can be grown in close hedgerows as fodder banks in integration with existing crops to maximize productivity in land crunch humid tropical areas. Enhancing tree cover in cropping systems also offers ecosystem services like enhanced carbon storage and associated global warming issues. Forage and nutrient yields, and carbon accretion can be substantially elevated and crop–tree competition can be minimized by appropriate stand management practices and proper regulation of overstorey and understorey components. Extensive studies conducted on tree fodder bank establishment, management and their productive and protective functions in humid tropical cropping systems of South India are reviewed in this paper.

Published: January 2023

The availability and per cent frequency usage of mobiles among the sampled farmers was found to be high in the study area. High the use of ICTs boosts agricultural production and the farmers with new technologies are fared better due to more access and sharing of information. The relationship between education, socio-economic status, extension contact, mass media exposure, scientific orientation, economic motivation and risk orientation was significantly positive with availability/accessibility, number of ICTs tool usage and usage pattern of ICTs by the farmers, whereas relationship of age was found to be negative. Similarly, the regression coefficient showed the impact of age, land holding and irrigation facilities with availability/ accessibility, number of ICTs tool usage and usage pattern of ICTs by the farmers is negative whereas education, socio-economic status, extension contacts, mass media exposure, scientific orientation, economic motivation and risk orientation positively affect availability/accessibility, number of ICTs tool usage and ICTs’ usage pattern by the farmers in the study area. All other personal variables were significantly and positively related with availability and accessibility of ICTs tools, number of ICTs tools usage by farmers and usages pattern of ICTs in farming system. Regression coefficient of education, socio-economic status, extension contact, mass media exposure, scientific orientation, economic motivation, and risk orientation revealed that one unit increase in these variables would increase the number of ICTs tools usage by the farmers respectively whereas age land holding and irrigation facilities has significantly negative regression coeffieicint.
Effect of natural farming, organic farming, and recommended package of practices on yield and economics of irrigated wheat (Triticum aestivum)
Authors: BEHERA ALOK KUMAR , CHANDRASHEKARA C P
Published: January 2023

An experiment was carried out on a split-plot design with two uneven controls, viz. four foliar concentrations of cow urine, and jeevamrutha under natural farming which were compared with Organic farming (OF), and Recommended package of practices (RPP) given by University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad (UASD). The treatments were replicated thrice. The study found that the UASD RPP recorded significantly higher grain yield, straw yield, gross return, net return, and B:C ratio than OF and natural farming practices. The grain yield reduction in the best treatment (cow urine @50% + jeevamrutha @100%) was 16% lesser than RPP, and 2% higher than OF. However, the cost of cultivation in natural farming with cow urine @50% + jeevamrutha @100% was lesser to the extent of 6.91 and 30.42% than UASD RPP and OF. Hence, the study indicates that irrigated wheat can be grown under UASD RPP followed by natural farming treatment more profitably.

Published: January 2023

Patharnakh pear fruits were freshly harvested at the physiological maturity during second week of July and subjected to different precooling treatments, viz. Hydrocooling (HC), Forced Air Cooling (FAC) and Evaporative Cooling (EC). The effect of these methods on fruit shelf-life and quality attributes under ambient conditions was investigated during the year 2021–22 at Punjab Horticultural Post harvest Technology Centre, Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, Punjab. In all treatments, temperature of fruit pulp was regularly checked with digital pulp thermometer until a constant temperature was accomplished. Thereafter, the fruits were packed in corrugated fibre board boxes of 2 kg capacity and stored at ambient conditions (28–32°C and 70–80% relative humidity). The stored samples were assessed, periodically, at 5 days interval till 20 days for physiological and biochemical parameters. The results of the study revealed that FAC maintained lower physiological weight loss, spoilage and retained higher fruit firmness, sensory quality score, juice TSS, total sugars, acidity, vitamin C and total phenolic content during storage compared to the control. This method is an effective approach for maintaining the post-harvest shelf-life of perishable pear fruits for about 15 days in comparison to 10 days in the untreated control fruits.

VARIATION OVER TIME OF BIOINSECTICIDES EFFECT ON Spodoptera frugiperda INCIDENCE IN CORN (Zea mays) IN DRY SEASON IN MOCACHE, LOS RÍOS, ECUADOR
Authors: Fernández Ramiro Gaibor , Rodríguez Sergio Rodríguez , Pérez Juan José Reyes- , Avilés César Miguel Guevara , Zambrano Paula Plaza
Published: January 2023

Background. Corn cultivation – one of the main crops in the world – is important in Ecuador for human and animal nutrition, but one of the main limitations in production is the damage caused by the insect pest Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). Objective. Therefore, the objective of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness over time of three bio-insecticides on pest incidence in maize hybrid INIAP H601 in Mocache, Los Ríos, Ecuador in the dry season. Methodology. A completely randomized design was used with five treatments and four replicates: (1) Natural neem (Azadirachta indica) leaf extract in doses of 1.88 L; (2) Bassigeos (Beauveria bassiana) in doses of 5 L; (3) Neem + B. bassiana mix in doses of 7 L; (4) Chemical bait in doses of 80 kg.ha-1; and (5) Control group without application, processed by a linear model of repeated measures.  Results. A significant variation was observed in the treatments due to the influence of time. Implications. Corn agricultural production has a long tradition and importance in Ecuador, especially in the Province of Los Ríos where productions are affected by S. frugiperda whose major control is by using polluting chemical products.  Conclusions. Because the effect of the applied bio-insecticide treatments changes overtime, pest incidence is modified through a linear model of repeated measures. The lowest incidence percentages are achieved with the use of B. bassiana (Bb), A. indica (neem) and Bb + Neem mix after day 15, whereas the chemical control group achieves it throughout the evaluated time interval.

Collagen Structure Orientation at the Bone–Cartilage Interface
Authors: Bradley D. A. , Gundogdu O. , Bunk O.
Published: January 2023

The articular cartilage overlying subchondral bone consists of variously oriented collagen fibres, the detailed organisation of which is essential for cartilage integrity that has suffered damage in degenerative joint disease such as osteoarthritis (OA). A technique attracting particular interest is that of coherent small-angle X-ray scattering mapping; the present investigations are supported by PILATUS, a highly pixelated two-dimensional detector system developed at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI). The system has yielded information on the anatomical features that correspond to the large-scale organisation of collagen and the mineralised phase contained within the collagen fibres in the deep cartilage zone. Results obtained from a decalcified cartilage–bone sample have been plotted in terms of the orientation of cartilage and bone components for particular intervals of k-space, showing the organisation of collagen-II within superficial layers and collagen-X in the chondrocyte-rich deeper layers of cartilage. It is apparent in undamaged cartilage that there is a gradual reorientation of the collagen-II fibres of the cartilage, from parallel to the surface of the joint, to normal to the cartilage–bone interface. A similar pattern of orientation is seen below the cement line (the surface at which cartilage anchors to the bone), for the collagen type-I prevalent in bone. Changing the interval of k-space allows subchondral features such as the microvasculature to be seen.

Authors: Bula Marek , Nehyba Jan
Published: January 2023

Podpora well-beingu na základních školách se ukazuje jako důležitá součást vzdělávání a rozvoje dětí. Tato přehledová studie si klade za cíl seznámit českého čtenáře s podobou, obsahem a výsledky dostupných zahraničních preventivních programů na podporu well-beingu u žáků základních škol a nižších stupňů středních škol. Předmětem analýzy jsou empirické studie efektu jednotlivých programů získané vyhledáváním z databáze Web of Science. Analýza se zaměřuje na formu předání i tematický obsah programů, na experimentální design, na způsob zjišťování míry well-beingu a na efekt jednotlivých programů. Analýza programů ukazuje čtyři hlavní obsahová témata: emoce; vztahy; mindfulness a relaxace; silné stránky. Programy obsahující témata silné stránky a vztahy byly vždy úspěšné v podpoře well-beingu. Dále bylo zpozorováno, že pokud program nerozvíjel pozitivně well-being, neměl pozitivní efekt ani na další proměnné, jež se týkají prožívání. Nebyl nalezen vztah mezi formou předání programu a jeho efektem.

Le profil de la lexicographie technique roumaine actuelle.
Authors: Pitiriciu Silvia
Published: January 2023

La lexicografía técnica rumana de las últimas dos décadas(1990-2010) refleja el nivel que ésta alcanzó en la lengua rumana a travésde los libros y los medios de comunicación nacionales. El desarrollose manifestó en una única dirección, mediante los diccionarios bilingüesy políglotas. Estos instrumentos son útiles para los especialistas y los traductores,ya que proporcionan al lector la equivalencia entre las nocionesy los sintagmas de distintos idiomas, sin poder suplir, sin embargo, el contenidoinformacional de un trabajo monolingüe. La lexicografía rumanaactual se ve afectada por la ausencia de un Lexicón técnico, un trabajoque en Rumanía se publicó hace cinco décadas, pero jamás se actualizóo enmendó. De esta manera, la lexicografía técnica podría aportar informacionesexactas, necesarias para entender muchas nociones, conceptos,procesos y fenómenos, convirtíendose en un instrumento útil, tanto paralos especialistas, como para el público en general.
