Die noetischen Horizontarten des Wahrnehmens nach Husserl unter besonderer Berücksichtigung des praktischen und szenisch-phantasmatischen Horizonts
Authors: Wang Honghe ,   Romanian Society for Phenomenology
Published: July 2024

Following Husserl, horizonality is a fundamental aspect of inten­tional acts, making the horizon a crucial element in consciousness across all subjective experiences. This article aims to provide a comprehensive exploration of various forms of the noetic horizon in perceiving. It not only considers the well-known inner and outer horizons, as well as the horizon of the kinesthetic “I-can,” but also explores the practical horizon, which has been somewhat over­looked in Husserl’s phenomenology. Furthermore, the original contribution of this study lies in the introduction of scenic-phantasmatic representing as a peculiar type of horizon in perceiving. These latter two types of horizons have significant implications in our everyday lives. Finally, the essay examines the interaction between different types of noetic horizons.
What’s Hermeneutical About Heidegger’s Understanding-of-Being?
Authors: Jaran François ,   Romanian Society for Phenomenology
Published: July 2024

The aim of this paper is to analyze the hermeneutical nature of the concept of the understanding-of-being that grounds Heidegger’s fundamental ontology. I first consider the merging between ontology and hermeneutics that takes place in Being and Time and then interpret the hermeneutical sections of Being and Time (§§ 31–32) in order to clarify the ontological scope of under­standing, interpretation, and meaning. This allows me to examine the three dimensions of the “understanding-of-being principle” (according to which our encounter with entities is made possible by an understanding-of-being): the semantic, the ontological, and the transcendental. Finally, I try to make sense of the problematic use Heidegger makes of the concept of understanding for both the ontic encounter with entities and the ontological access to being.
Space, Movement, and the Mirror Neuron Theory. From Phenomenology to Neuroscience and Back
Authors: Amoroso Prisca ,   Romanian Society for Phenomenology
Published: July 2024

In its first part, this paper is devoted to presenting Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology of space through some of his texts. Between 1942’s The Structure of Behavior and the 1953 courses, Merleau-Ponty is refining a philosophy of movement, the most important concept of which is that of motor intentionality, which articulates the phenomenological theme of intentionality in relation to the problem of a subject’s understanding of observed movement. Movement is thus related to intersubjectivity and Einfühlung. Next, we present the general aspects of and some problems with mirror neuron theory, which were already addressed elsewhere in Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology: the brain-body relation, the definition of the capability of mirroring in the other individual, the role of the environment in intersubjectivity, and the idea of meaning as “direc­tion” toward goals. We suggest that a transdisciplinary approach can help solve some of the problems wrongly attributed to mirror neuron theorists.
Inference from Modelling FDI and Unemployment Rate in Nigeria
Authors: David Ikwuoche John , Idi Danjuma
Published: July 2024

This research investigates foreign direct investment (FDI) impact on the unemployment rate (UPR) in Nigeria by employing an Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model. The study made use of data from the period 1985-2021. Initial assessment of the data involved the application of rolling correlation to test the significance of signals between FDI and UPR. Subsequently, the research employs the ARDL bounds test methodology to examine cointegration among FDI and UPR. Additionally, an Error Correction Model (ECM) is utilized to explore the causal relationship between these economic variables in the short run. The Augmented Dickey Fuller unit root test suggests that the variables attain stationarity at first differences (I(1)). The findings indicate that at 5% FDI significantly impacted on UPR in the long run but not in the short run where it was significant at 10%. Also, the selected best fitted model for the sampled period is ARDL(1, 1) but the plot of the cumulative sum squared chart showed that the parameter estimates were unstable for the sampled period. The results suggest more investment in FDI is necessary for reducing Nigeria unemployment rate in the long run and stabilizing it in the short run.

Published: July 2024

Seit der Veröffentlichung eines Partyvideos von der Insel Sylt erhitzt ein Elektro-Track die Gemüter: »L’amour toujours« von Gigi d’Agostino. Schon seit Herbst 2023 ist der Millenium-Hit öfters in Online-Videos zu hören – übertönt mit der xenophoben Parole »Deutschland den Deutschen, Ausländer raus«, meist gefolgt von Empörung in digitalen Räumen. Mit dem Sylt-Video erreichte diese eine neue Qualität, so wie auch der Song eine verstärkte Verbreitung fand: als solcher und als ausländerfeindliches Meme. Inwiefern der Umgang mit dem Ohrwurm unter dem Gesichtspunkt einer moralischen Panik betrachtet werden kann, die zur (digitalen) Diffusion jenes Memes potentiell beiträgt, behandeln wir in unserer Blitzanalyse mit dem Kommunikationswissenschaftler Chas Critcher.

Published: July 2024

This scientometric study seeks to analyze scientific articles on ethical business leadership from a social-scientific perspective, considering its relationship or influence with the different behaviors of workers. Using the VOSWiever program, an analysis is carried out on 1000 articles published in Web of Science (WoS) journals from 1987 to May 2023. The results show the five main contributing countries, these being: China, the United States, England, Canada, and Pakistan and the year 2022 will be the year of greatest scientific production. There are no records of studies in Latin America; however, scientific production is found in academic sites in Venezuela, Chile, Ecuador, and Argentina. Using the Laws of Lotka, Price, and the Bradford model, the most prolific authors and the productivity of countries and magazines are discovered. Using Zipf's law and the Hirsch index, the most frequent keywords and the best-known articles are revealed. The article has sought to contribute to the eighth goal of sustainable development (SDG), that is, with the study of ethical leaders who model behaviors that favor economic growth, work well-being, and sustainability of their organizations. For future research, it is suggested that specific effects produced by this leadership as a mediator related to job performance in Latin companies be examined.

Dental Technician Pneumoconiosis Case Report
Authors: Yurt Ak Yasemin
Published: July 2024

Introduction: Occupational disease is caused by the nature of the work the insured person works or does and is one of the preventable diseases. Dental laboratory technicians are professionally exposed to a wide variety of chemicals, dust and noise, ergonomic risks and psychosocial risks. In prosthesis construction, cobalt-chromium and molybdenum alloys are used to create metal structures and refractory materials (composed of quartz) are used to make metal skeletal molds. Inhalation exposure occurs to mixed mineral dusts containing respirable crystalline silica particles and metals produced during manufacturing processes. The interstitial lung disease caused by these mixed dusts is called “dental technician pneumoconiosis”. Unfortunately, it continues to be seen in our country.
Case report: We present a case of a 39-year-old male who has been working as a dental technician in different companies and dental laboratories for approximately 19 years and was diagnosed with dental technician pneumoconiosis. He had been suffering from shortness of breath and dry cough on exertion for the last few months. In the HRCT, a widespread peribronchovascular micronodular infiltration image was observed in all lobes and segments of both lungs, and it was similar to the thorax CT findings 3 years ago. With his professional history and exclusion of other pathologies, dental technician pneumoconiosis was diagnosed.
Discussion/conclusion: Pneumoconioses are preventable lung diseases. To prevent pneumoconiosis in dental technicians, effective measures should be provided to prevent the employee from being exposed to dust. For protection, a working environment should be provided in dental laboratories where all contact with the materials used can be prevented. In cases where it cannot be prevented by engineering methods; With early diagnosis, exposure should be terminated and its progression halted. It should be monitored whether occupational health and safety measures are followed. Additionally, an occupational history must be taken during polyclinic applications.

The effectiveness of the Sunday school curriculum implementation carried out by GKI Elim Malanu Sunday School Teachers has not been able to answer the needs of children. Sunday School teachers only bring material from the context of the Bible without making efforts to contextualize the Word into real situations experienced by children, such as cyberbullying and violence. This is due to the limited time and knowledge of Sunday school teachers in implementing Sunday school lessons. The research method used by researchers in this study is the descriptive-qualitative research method. According to Creswell J. W. (2017), qualitative research is a study whose main focus is researching social and human problems. The data source is obtained from observing and analyzing objects while in the field, then described in a report using words and not numbers in detail. The effectiveness of the implementation of the implementation of the Sunday school curriculum for Sunday school teachers can be determined by following several important points, including: basic courses for Sunday school teachers; self-study at home; continuous lesson preparation; and getting support from the church and parents.

Şüphesiz ki, toplulukların uluslaşma süreçleri salt siyasi bir devinim ile meydana gelmekten ziyade toplumdaki milli bilinç ve kimliğin tesis edilmesiyle eşgüdümlü olarak gerçekleşmektedir. Topluluklar, gerek tertiplenmiş ve düşünülmüş bir siyasi kampanya önderliğinde gerekse de bağımsız ve planlanmamış bir hareketin sahada yer etmesiyle söz konusu uluslaşma sürecini başlatabilir ve gerek duyulan milli bilinci oluşturabilmektedir. Oluşturulan kavramın milli kimlik olduğu gerçeği ele alındığında, harekete geçirilen eylem planlarında dil olgusunu görmek kaçınılmazdır. Nitekim dil, bir toplumun kendine özgü kültürü içerisinde düşünebilmesi ve düşüncelerini müşterek kültürel bağlamda izah edebilmesi için oldukça mühim bir kavram olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Bu kapsamda, hem 1923 senesinde Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun yıkılışına müteakip Türkiye Cumhuriyeti’nin kuruluşuna tanıklık etmiş Türk toplumu, hem de 1948 yılında İsrail Devleti’nin kuruluşuna tanıklık etmiş İsrail toplumu belirtilen milli bilincin ve kimliğin tesis edilmesi sürecinde dilsel boyutta benzer süreçlere tabii olmuş ve uluslaşma sürecinin bekası için çeşitli planlamalarda bulunmuşlardır. Bu araştırmanın konusu, her iki devletin uluslaşma sürecinde dilsel boyutta telakki ettiği ve hayata geçirdiği eylemleri ele almak, benzer ve farklı yönleri mümkün olan suretle irdelemektir. Yöntem olarak ise her iki dönemi de ele alan çeşitli çalışmalar literatür taraması adı altında veri olarak kaydedilmiş ve karşılaştırmalı olarak incelenmiştir.

La démarche de travail adoptée est basée sur la collecte des données documentaires ; et de terrain, ainsi que sur les travaux de laboratoire. Les résultats obtenus montrent que certaines unités d’occupation des sols ont régressé entre 2001 et 2021. C’est le cas des forêts sèches (-2,09 %) et des savanes (-5,23 %) qui ont vu leurs surfaces diminuées au profit des sols nus, champs et jachères et les eaux (+7,32 %). Cette dynamique des surfaces dans le bassin versant de Kpélou est liée non seulement aux conditions physiques du milieu notamment la topographie (avec 3,5 m d’indice global de pente et des pentes supérieures à 20° par endroit), les précipitations (1373,2 mm d’eau par an) et le réseau hydrographique, mais aussi aux facteurs humains, notamment l’activité agricole qui est exercée dans la zone et l’extraction des héritages géomorphologiques qui parsèment ce bassin versant. Face à cette situation préoccupante dans la zone d’étude, un reboisement a été proposé dans le but d’augmenter la couverture végétale et ainsi réduire les effets de l’érosion dans ce milieu.

La culture de baies de tomates est saisonnière malgré le besoin quotidien. Cette culture est sujette à de nombreuses contraintes dont les maladies fongiques. La présente étude vise à recenser les stratégies de conservation locales et identifier les moisissures impliquées dans la dégradation des fruits de tomates post-récoltes. La collecte des données a été faite d’une part, par des enquêtes menées sous forme de focus group auprès des agriculteurs et revendeuses de la région maritime. La collecte des échantillons a été basée sur un choix aléatoire de baies de tomates présentant un signe d’altération ou de symptômes fongiques. D’autre part, Une analyse fongique des échantillons a été réalisée afin d’identifier les moisissures qui y sont inféodées. 151 personnes ont été enquêtées et 24 échantillons ont été collectés pour l’analyse fongique. Les résultats montrent que plusieurs cultivars de tomates sont cultivés et parmi celles-ci, les variétés locales ‘Bobo’, ‘cococu’, ‘akliko’, ‘pommevi’, ‘atayakpa’, résistent au-delà de 10 jours avant de se détériorer. Parmi les formes de stratégies de conservation, la purée est la plus adoptée. À l’issue de l’analyse fongique, 22 espèces de moisissures ont été identifiées, lesquelles sont réparties en 14 genres : Alternaria, Aspergillus, Cladosporium, Colletotrichum, Curvularia, Fusarium, Geotrichum, Penicillium, Mucor, Rhizoctania, Rhizopus, Sclerotina, Stemphylium, Trichoderma. La culture de baies de tomates est soumise à plusieurs contraintes dont la méconnaissance des techniques de conservation, le manque d’infrastructures de transformation et l’attaque de nuisibles.

The objective of this study is to determine the practicality of the use of sockets and boxing wax for the practice of second-year dental students. The methodology used was the measurement of practicality, quantifying student work time without taking into account the setting time or other external variables; in terms of monetary expenditure, all the instruments used in the casting were added together. The results were that the average student's working time for casting in sockets (6:49 min/sec) is less compared to casting in boxing wax (22: 13 min/sec), and the money spent on instruments for socket casting ($45.92 in total expenditure and $40.00 for 1 pour) is also less compared to box wax casting ($51.44 and $42.65 for 1 pour), with socket casting being more practical for the student.

Published: July 2024

This review examines the relationship between the gut microbiome and Alzheimer's disease (AD). We found evidence that the gut microbiota may play a role in the pathogenesis of AD through inflammation and metabolite production. Early intervention strategies based on modulation of the gut microbiota could improve symptoms. Gut dysbiosis, inflammation, and the NLRP3 inflammasome appear to be involved in the disease. Modifying the gut microbiota with probiotics, prebiotics and dietary changes could have beneficial effects in AD, according to animal and human studies. More research is needed to understand the mechanisms and to evaluate the efficacy of these interventions in clinical trials. In conclusion, modification of the gut microbiome could be an effective therapeutic strategy for AD, but more research is needed for clinical implementation.

Published: July 2024

Phage therapy is a promising therapeutic strategy in the treatment of bacterial infections, especially those resistant to antibiotics. It consists of the use of bacteriophages, viruses that selectively infect and destroy bacteria. Bacteriophages can replicate within pathogenic bacteria, offering a precise alternative to conventional antibiotics. It has shown encouraging results in preclinical and clinical studies, showing efficacy in infections unresponsive to antibiotics. Bacteriophages can be customized to target specific bacterial strains, allowing for an individualized approach to treatment. Although there are challenges and limitations, significant advances are being made in this field. More research and regulation is required for its development and wider adoption. Phage therapy offers real hope in the treatment of bacterial infections, but its potential impact on public health needs further investigation.

Published: July 2024

Cellular senescence is a natural process of all living organisms. The genetic bases of this process have allowed the recognition of genes whose expression has been related to longevity and cell aging. The genes KLOTHO, FOXO, and those associated with telomere maintenance are three examples of these. The development of gene editing techniques is being directed at genes of biomedical interest such as those mentioned above. This literature review presents discoveries made on the genetic manipulation of the KLOTHO, FOXO and genes associated with telomere maintenance using the CRISPR-CAS9 tool. As a result, it is reported that the reduction of the expression of these genes has resulted in the increase of processes that lead to rapid aging. On the contrary, its overexpression increases the maintenance of the chemical and biological balance in organisms both in vivo and in vitro. The development of the precision of advanced gene manipulation techniques seeks not only the study of new biochemical pathways but also possible applications in medicine focused on supporting the well-being of living organisms.
