Co-producción de conocimiento y redes en un conflicto socio-ambiental: una resistencia pionerística
Authors: Tarabini Serena
Published: September 2020

En el momento en el que ciudadanos y asociaciones locales están involucrados en un conflicto socio-ambiental, por un lado se relacionan con expertos co-produciendo y difundiendo conocimiento científico, histórico y local con el que construyen una narración alternativa del territorio, y por el otro lado construyen una red político-social con elementos heterogéneos. La producción de conocimiento y la formación de esta red, es una alianza que determina el desarrollo del conflicto, y esta red es una forma de imaginar los resultados de las condiciones históricas, geográficas y sociales del territorio. En este trabajo cuento y analizo por medio de ANT (Action Network Theory) la resistencia de una muy pequeña comunidad del norte de Italia a un projecto extractivista , mostrando cómo logra alcanzar la legitimidad, visibilidad y credibilidad en su lucha por la protección socio-ambiental de su territorio.
La construcción de nuevas identidades socioambientales en la Patagonia Argentina frente a la amenaza nuclear (1986-1996)
Authors: Dichdji Ayelen
Published: September 2020

El presente artículo se propone indagar la conformación de la primera  controversia socioambiental en Argentina. Con ese objetivo, se analizará el proyecto de la Comisión Nacional de Energía Atómica que propuso construir un vertedero de desechos nucleares de alta actividad en la localidad de Gastre, provincia de Chubut entre 1986 y 1996. Tomaremos como base de este estudio la información proporcionada por dos medios de comunicación gráficos de alcance nacional: El Diario Clarín y el Diario La Nación, puesto que los medios son una referencia inevitable para establecer la agenda pública. En este sentido, los ciudadanos toman sus decisiones (políticas, económicas y ambientales) en función de la información que les proporcionan. Por consiguiente, el papel que los medios tienen en la creación de una conciencia ambiental no es menor. Este trabajo busca ser una contribución al estudio de las representaciones culturales sobre el medio ambiente, para ello, se realizará a través de un enfoque histórico-ambiental. En definitiva, proponemos un enfoque holístico y multidisciplinario donde se establece una interconexión entre dos áreas de conocimiento: historia ambiental y comunicación social de riesgos.

Published: September 2020

One of the standards that must be met by sharia hospitals is to provide comprehensive Islamic spiritual services, by all hospital staff, including in nursing services. Determination of Islamic spiritual nursing diagnosis in sharia hospital services is the main thing that must be known by nurses. This study aims to analyze the level of knowledge of nurses in determining the diagnosis of Islamic spiritual nursing care in a Sharia hospital in Bandung, through a correlational research method with a cross sectional approach. The sampling technique used was simple random sampling, a total of 50 adult inpatient nurses who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results showed that the average value obtained by nurses after filling out a questionnaire about determining spiritual nursing diagnoses was 44.16, the level of knowledge of nurses in determining spiritual nursing diagnoses in sharia hospitals was a sufficient category (42%), but on average they were not able to differentiate (C3) definitions between spiritual nursing diagnoses (≥50%). Spiritual care education and training have a close relationship with the knowledge level of nurses, with a significant value <0.0001 and a correlation coefficient of 1.00. The results of the research can be used as a reference for training and further education for nurses so that their knowledge can increase and become basic data for further research. Keywords: Knowledge, Nursing diagnosis, , Spiritual

When Logics Collide: Implementing Technology-Enabled Personalization in the Age of Accountability
Authors: Daruwala Iris , Bretas Shani , Ready Douglas D.
Published: September 2020

In this article, we situate the relatively new wave of technology-enabled personalized learning platforms within the broader policy context of institutional accountability. Although many education technology innovations were developed in response to heightened accountability pressures, technology-enabled personalization introduces new institutional rules, cultures, and norms that may be at odds with the goals of accountability. Using the adoption of a personalized, blended learning mathematics program at five U.S. schools as a case study, we describe how teachers, school leaders, and program staff navigated institutional pressures to improve state grade-level standardized test scores while implementing tasks and technologies designed to personalize student learning.
Buckling Behavior of Aluminum Alloy Thin-Walled Beam with Holes under Compression Loading
Authors: Khazaal Dalya Salah , AL-khafaji Hussein Mohammed , Abdulsahib Imad Abdulhussein
Published: September 2020

Thin-walled members are increasingly used in structural applications, especially in light structures like in constructions and aircraft structures because of their high strength-to-weight ratio. Perforations are often made on these structures for reducing weight and to facilitate the services and maintenance works like in aircraft wing ribs. This type of structures suffers from buckling phenomena due to its dimensions, and this suffering increases with the presence of holes in it. This study investigated experimentally and numerically the buckling behavior of aluminum alloy 6061-O thin-walled lipped channel beam with specific holes subjected to compression load. A nonlinear finite elements analysis was used to obtain the buckling loads of the beams. Experimental tests were done to validate the finite element results. Three factors namely; shape of holes, opening ratio  D/Do and the spacing ratio S/Do were chosen to study their effects on the buckling strength of the channel beams. Finite elements results were obtained by using Taguchi method to identify the best combination of the three parameters for optimum critical buckling load, whereas determining the contribution of each parameter on buckling strength was implemented by using the analysis of variance technique (ANOVA) method. Results showed that the combination of parameters that gives the best buckling strength is the hexagonal hole shape, D/Do=1.7 and S/Do= 1.3 and the opening ratio (or size of holes) is the most effective on buckling behavior.

Securing research funding is a challenge faced by most scientists in academic institutions worldwide. Funding success rates for all career stages are low, but the burden falls most heavily on early career researchers (ECRs) - young investigators in training and new principal investigators - who have a shorter track record and are dependent on funding to establish their academic career. The low number of career development awards and the lack of sustained research funding results in the loss of ECR talent in academia. Several steps in the current funding process, from grant conditions to the review process, play significant roles in the distribution of funds. Furthermore, there is an imbalance among certain research disciplines and labs of influential researchers that receive more funding. As a group of ECRs with global representation, we examined funding practices, barriers, facilitators, and alternatives to the current funding systems to diversify risk or award grants on a partly random basis. Based on our discussions, research, and collective opinions, we detail recommendations for funding agencies and grant reviewers to improve ECR funding prospects worldwide and promote a fairer and more inclusive funding landscape for ECRs.

Researchers working from home: Benefits and challenges
Authors: Aczel Balazs , Kovacs Marton , van der Lippe Tanja , Szaszi Barnabas
Published: September 2020

The flexibility allowed by the mobilization of technology disintegrated the traditional work-life boundary for most professionals. Whether working from home is the key or impediment to academics’ efficiency and work-life balance became a daunting question for both scientists and their employers. The recent pandemic brought into focus the merits and challenges of working from home on a level of personal experience. In this study, we surveyed academics while working from home and found that the pandemic lockdown decreased the work efficiency for almost half of the researchers but around a quarter of them were more efficient during this time compared to the time before. Based on the gathered personal experience, 70% of the researchers think that in the future they would be similarly or more efficient than before if they could spend more of their work-time at home. They indicated that in the office they are better at sharing thoughts with colleagues, keeping in touch with their team, and collecting data, whereas at home they are better at working on their manuscript, reading the literature, and analysing their data. Taking well-being also into account, 66% of them would find it ideal to work more from home in the future than they did before the lockdown. These results draw attention to how working from home is becoming a major element of researchers’ life and that we have to learn more about its influencer factors and coping tactics in order to optimise its arrangements.
Children understand communication intuitively but indirect communication makes them think twice – Evidence from pupillometry and looking patterns
Authors: Schulze Cornelia , Buttelmann David
Published: September 2020

Interpreting a speaker’s communicative acts is a challenge children are facing permanently in everyday live. In doing so, they seem to understand direct communicative acts more easily than indirect communicative acts. The present study investigated which step in the processing of communicative acts might cause difficulties in understanding indirect communication. To assess the developmental trajectory of this phenomenon, we tested 3- and 5-year-old children (N=105) using eyetracking and an object-choice task. The children watched videos that showed puppets during their every-day activities (e.g., pet care). For every activity, the puppets were asked which of two objects (e.g., rabbit or dog) they would rather have. The puppets responded either directly (“I want the rabbit”) or indirectly (“I have a carrot”). Results showed that children chose the object intended by the puppets more often in the direct- than in the indirect-communication condition, and 5-year-olds chose correctly more than 3-year-olds. However, even though we found that children’s pupil size increased while hearing the utterances, we found no effect for communication type before children had already decided on the correct object during object selection by looking at it. Only after this point, that is, only in children’s further fixation patterns and reaction times did differences for communication type occur. Thus, although children’s object-choice performance suggests that indirect communication is harder to understand than direct communication, the cognitive demands during processing both communication types seem similar. We discuss theoretical implications of these findings for developmental pragmatics in terms of a dual-process account of communication comprehension.
Play-based interventions to support social and communication development in autistic children aged 2-8 years: A scoping review
Authors: Gibson Jenny Louise , Pritchard Emma Jane , de Lemos Carmen
Published: September 2020

Play is often considered by practitioners to be a natural and enjoyable context for providing intervention and support to autistic children. However, the literature on play-based interventions is large and heterogeneous.This means it is challenging for families and practitioners to navigate the evidence base and make choices about differing play-based approaches. This review aims to provide a comprehensive map of the research on this topic and to develop a conceptual framework to inform decision-making.We used a scoping review methodology to find peer reviewed intervention studies of play-based approaches totargeting language, social and communication outcomes for autistic children aged 2-8 years. We then summarised the literature using narrative synthesis and Evidence Gap Maps (EGMs).We identified 388 studies, covering many intervention types, for inclusion. Just over 50% had <10 participants. Girls and minority background groups were under-represented. In our summary we suggest important dimensions for appraisal of play-based interventions, including considering the role of play in an intervention and the extent to which approaches are child-led.

Authors: Mastrotheodoros Stefanos , Papp Lauren , Van der Graaff Jolien , Dekovic Maja , Meeus Wim H. J. , Branje Susan
Published: September 2020

In this multi-informant, longitudinal, daily-diary study, we investigated whether long-term dyadic patterns of marital conflict resolution explain the heterogeneity in short-term day-to-day cross-lagged associations between marital conflict intensity and mother-adolescent conflict intensity. The sample consisted of 419 adolescents (44.6% girls, Mage = 13.02, SD = 0.44, at T1; Mage = 17.02, SD = 0.44, at T5), their mothers (N = 419, Mage = 44.48, SD = 4.17, at T1), and their fathers (N = 419, Mage = 46.76, SD = 4.99, at T1). Mothers and fathers reported on their marital conflict resolution strategies annually across five years. Mother-father daily conflict intensity (mother-reported), and mother-adolescent daily conflict intensity (mother- and adolescent-reported) were assessed for 75 days across five years. We hypothesized that long-term marital conflict resolution patterns would moderate the short-term daily dynamics of conflict between the marital and the mother-adolescent dyads. Latent Class Growth Analysis revealed four types of families based on long-term dyadic marital conflict resolution, including families where mostly constructive or mostly destructive conflict resolution was used. Dynamic Structural Equation Modeling was used to investigate the daily levels and short-term daily dynamics of conflict, revealing that for most families there was no day-to-day lagged associations between marital conflict and mother-adolescent conflict. Results showed that long-term conflict resolution patterns did not moderate the short-term dynamics of daily conflict. However, differences among long-term marital conflict resolution patterns were found in the levels of daily conflict, such that in families with long-term destructive conflict resolution patterns, daily conflict intensity was higher.
Patent Quality: Towards a Systematic Framework for Analysis and Measurement
Authors: Higham Kyle , de Rassenfosse Gaetan , Jaffe Adam B
Published: September 2020

The ‘quality’ of novel technological innovations is extremely variable, and the ability to measure innovation quality is essential to sensible, evidence-based policy. Patents, an often vital precursor to a commercialised innovation, share this heterogeneous quality distribution. A pertinent question then arises: How should we define and measure patent quality? Accepting that different stakeholders have different views of this concept, we take a multi-dimensional view of patent quality in this work. We first test the consistency of popular post-grant outcomes that are often used as patent quality measures. Finding these measures to be generally inconsistent, we then use a raft of patent indicators that are defined at the time of grant to dissect the characteristics associated with different post-grant outcomes. We find broad disagreement in the relative importance of individual characteristics between outcomes and, further, significant variation of the same across technologies within outcomes. We conclude that measurement of patent quality is highly sensitive to both stakeholder viewpoint and technology type. Our findings bear implications for scholarly research using patent data as well as for policy discussions about patent quality.
Influence of social networking sites on feeling towards social media among the students of Bangladesh
Authors: Das Pranta , Nath Razib Chandra
Published: September 2020

The use of social networking sites has been rapidly increased among college and university students. Over time, social networking sites have solely become tools for creating content, sharing information, and an endless source of learning for the students. This study aims to know the influence of social networking sites on students feeling toward social media. In this online questionnaire-based study, 207 students from different universities and colleges provided information regarding their feeling toward social media. The differences in feeling for social networking sites- Facebook and YouTube- are analyzed and reported. The result obtained from the simple main effect test showed that differences in feelings exist for both social networking sites. The usage pattern of these social networking sites can have an impact on the feeling toward social media. The results show that the high-usage group has the highest mean value of feeling for both social networking sites. This suggests that Facebook and YouTube should build a strategy to convert its low and moderate users to high users to increase its reputation and number of users.
Too hot to study? Gender and SES differences in the effect of temperature on school performance
Authors: KEIVABU Risto CONTE
Published: September 2020

Research highlighted a negative effect of extreme temperature on school performance, especially for ethnic minorities and low status students. This article inquires how SES and gender moderate the effect of temperature on test scores. The focus on gender differences is granted by recent experimental studies that exposed a positive effect of temperature on girl’s test scores. In this research, I use the Italian administrative dataset INVALSI combined with measures of temperature on the test day at the provincial level based on the ERA-5 Land database. The results highlight a negative effect of temperatures below 10°C and no effect of temperatures above 30°C on math test scores, although heterogeneity across gender. Females benefit from higher temperature but males do not. Temperature shocks and school year exposure confirm the pattern. Conversely, no SES differences are observed.

Published: September 2020

Background: Chronic kidney disease caused by deterioration of renal function is a growing problem in the world. In chronic kidney disease, renal function is decreased and waste can build to high level in blood. Malnutrition is common in chronic kidney disease patient who is related to poor food intake because of anorexia, restricted protein intake, nausea and vomiting.

Objective: This study aims to assess the nutritional status of chronic kidney patients undergoing hemodialysis by anthropometric measurement and laboratory investigations.

Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Human Organ Transplant Center, Bhaktapur, Nepal over a period of 3 months (December, 2016 to February, 2017). Total of 53 patients (25 male and 28 female) undergoing hemodialysis were included in this study. Anthropometric measurements like body mass index, midupper arm circumference and laboratory investigation like serum albumin was used to evaluate the nutritional status of chronic kidney patients. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 16.0.

Results: Mean age of study population was 43.07±16.1 years. Majority of study subjects belong to age group between 17-61 years (64.16%). On the basis of World Health Organization body mass index classification, 24.52% of patients had fallen in malnourished class whereas 64.15% of the patients had normal nutritional status. Similarly, on the basis of mid-upper arm circumference, 52% of the male patients and 75% of the female patients were malnourished. 54.72% of the patient’s calorie intake was below 1200 Kcal. 56.6% of the patients had low serum albumin indicating malnutrition.

Conclusion: In conclusion, this study showed that malnutrition is a common problem in our patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis. Inadequate intake of energy and nutrients, low MUAC values, low BMI and low serum albumin concentration increases the degree of malnutrition.

Authors: Shahid MD Alam , Bhatta Pashupati , Raya Akash , Rai Binod Kumar
Published: September 2020

Background: The management of adhesive small bowel obstruction is quite debatable. Gastrograffin, a water-soluble hyperosmolar contrast is used as a diagnostic tool widely but it also has impressive therapeutic role. Hence this study was to determine its therapeutic role in management of adhesive bowel obstruction after failure of conservative treatment.

Methods: This cross-section observational study of 42 patients was conducted in 1-year duration from 01 July 2018 to 30 June 2019 using non-probability purposive sampling technique. All the patients were first managed conservatively for 48 hrs, and then given 100ml of gastrograffin through NG tube and clamped. Appearance of dye in cecum on radiograph at different time frame (4, 8, 12 and 24 hours of administration) signifies the success and who failed to do so within 24 hrs. were planned for laparotomy.

Results: A total of 42 patients with their age ranged 14-80 years (mean 44.6) were included. Among them 32 (76.19%) were male and 10 (23.80%) female. Most had open appendectomy followed by gynaecological surgery and exploratory laprotomy. Majority had midline incision followed by gridiron and pfanensteil incision. After 8 hrs of gastrograffin administration, it was positive in 12 patients while 19 had at 24 hrs. Total 31 patients showed complete resolution, while remaining 11 showed no improvement and undergone exploratory laparotomy.

Conclusion: Thus, the administration of gastrograffin is an effective approach in the management of adhesive small bowel obstruction after failed conservative management and prevents surgeries.

Authors: Gaire Bipula , Khagi Bina Rana
Published: September 2020

Introduction: Global ageing is the success story of the 21st century as a result of declining fertility, mortality and improved public health interventions. With the increased elderly population, the attitude of societies about ageing changes. Positive attitudes towards the elderly people are valued, respected and experienced but most of the literature shows negative perceptions towards elderly people among the youth, especially in the form of stereotypical behaviors and ageism which can result in social exclusion, isolation and ultimately the abuse of elderly people and disempowerment of elderly people.

Methods: Cross sectional research design was used to assess the attitude of youth towards the elderly people in the selected community of Lalitpur, Nepal from August 12 to September 7, 2018. Total 380 youth were interviewed by using modified Kogan’s Old People Scale and structured questions. Systematic random sampling technique was used for data collection.

Results: More than half of the youth (66.1%) had positive attitude level towards the elderly. With regards to the attitude towards the care of elderly almost of all of the youth (97.9%) had positive attitude towards the care of the elderly. There was significant association between gender and attitude towards elderly (p=0.04) and occupation and attitude towards the care of the elderly (p=0.02) at 95% of significance level.

Conclusion: Although more than half of the youth have positive attitude toward the elderly people still there is need to provide awareness program regarding the physical, physiological and psychological changes that occurs during the ageing period which helps in enhancing the positive attitude of the youth and thus contributing towards overall quality of life of the elderly people.

Authors: Shah Ravi Kumar , Deep Jagat Prasad , Rahman Zarin , Shah Pravin , Nayak Neha , Gupta Ravi Shankar
Published: September 2020

Background: Anaemia in pregnancy is a global health challenge. It is the commonest medical disorder of pregnancy and a major cause of morbidity and mortality in developing countries. Main cause of anaemia in obstetrics is iron deficiency. There are specific risks for the mother and the fetus such as intrauterine growth retardation, prematurity, and blood transfusion. Hence, the importance of giving iron in the antenatal period and to be continued postnatally.

Objectives: The study was conducted to determine the overall prevalence of anaemia among pregnant women presenting in third trimester and its effect on pregnancy outcome.

Methods: This is a cross sectional descriptive study done at National Medical College & Teaching Hospital from September 2015 to August 2016. During the study period 2048 pregnant women attended antenatal clinic in third trimester. Among 2048, 1200 were booked cases and out of these women with haemoglobin less than 11gm/dl were labeled as anaemia. The prevalence was calculated along with the maternal and fetal outcome.

Result: Among 2048, 1200 were booked cases, 368 (30.66%) were anemic, 66.30% were multigravida, 67.93% in age group of 21-30 years, 284 patients came for delivery. In 14.08% patients there was preterm labour, apgar score less than 7 in 66.19% babies. Majority of neonate weighed between 2.0 - 2.5kg (49.29%). Perinatal deaths were 2.81%.

Conclusion: Anaemia in pregnancy need awareness about early and regular antenatal care with oral iron supplementation. Correction of anaemia will reduce the maternal and fetal complications.

Published: September 2020

The success of village development planning accompanied by community empowerment will improve the economy of the community in the region, which in turn can reduce economic inequality. Rural development is inseparable from the role of village communities as one of social capital. Dasa Wisma and Setu Legi Association is a place for social capital and community empowerment to improve the group's economy. However, as the economic drivers of the Brajan hamlet community in Potorono Village, the group experienced problems about the lack of orderliness of members because there were no written regulations and the absence of financial reports as a measurement of group assets. So that assistance to improve administration as a group's financial accountability and SOP for lending is absolutely necessary. The results of community service activities indicate that with the formulation of SOPs, it is expected that the lending mechanism will be obeyed by members and the borrower will be orderly in installments, as well as by preparing the group's financial statements, the assets owned can be identified. So that the group's financial development can be seen and allocated for more productive needs.

Prevention, control and management of this chronic metabolic disease is the most important ways to avoid its consequences. The use of functional foods and bioactive compounds can be effective in preventing and controlling this disease due to the antioxidant compounds present. Low- level laser therapy (LLLT), as an adjunct therapy, along with medication can be effective in reducing the effects of DM.Objective: Our aim in the present study was to investigate the synergistic effects of LLLT and cinnamic acid on blood glucose, inflammatory factors, oxidative factors, and increased activity of antioxidant enzymes.Methods: For this study, thirty healthy individuals were selected as the control group and thirty individuals with type 2 DM were selected. The levels of biochemical parameters, such as glucose, hydrogen peroxide, advanced glycation end products (AGEs), advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), malondialdehyde (MDA) and oxidized low-density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) were studied in the samples of different control and diabetic groups, Inflammatory factors, such as Interleukin 1 alpha (IL-1α), Interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β), Interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and antioxidant enzymes, such as catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) were also studied.Results: The results of all biochemical parameters showed significant differences in untreated and treated diabetic samples in compared to control group (P < 0.001). There was no significant difference in the reduction of inflammatory factors, glucose and hydrogen peroxide between the samples treated with both cinnamic acid and laser irradiation with the untreated diabetic sample (P > 0.05). A significant difference was observed in comparing the results of other biochemical factors (P < 0.05).Conclusions: Concomitant use of cinnamic acid and LLLT as a complementary treatment can reduce oxidative stress and thus prevent the diabetes complications.Keywords: Laser irradiation; Cinnamic acid; Functional foods; Oxidative stress; Diabetes mellitus.

Атропологія родинної пам’яті і філософія витривалості
Authors: Sobol Walentyna
Published: September 2020

The article analyses the manuscript of Philip Orlik’s diary (1672–1742). The Ukrainian hetman was writing it for twelve years, between 1720 and 1732. The author’s focus is Orlik’s autobiography. It is a very important part of the diary and is related to the exile period of his life. The diarist had given that chapter a separate title – “Pro memoria. Na cześć i chwałę Bogu w Trojcy Świętej jedynemu Amen” [“Pro Memoria. For the Glory of God in Holy Trinity United Amen”]. The purpose of the article is to investigate the anthropology of family memory in the diary as a pledge of the author’s endurance. Orlik perceived the diary as an interlocutor, so there is a peculiar, emotionally sensitive link between the diary and the diarist. The diary is characterised by persuasiveness. In order to illustrate it, the author of the article provides quotations from the diary without translation. The original language of Orlik’s manuscript is the Old Polish language inlaid with Latin. The diarist had put down into the diary copies of the most important letters. He wrote the letters in French and Latin. The Polish language was used exclusively in his correspondence with King Stanislav. The author analyses the autobiographical note in the context of the diary genre, defining it as a model of baroque autobiography that resonates throughout the text of the diary.
