Deinstitutionalisation of foster care in Poland. Experiences of selected foster care organisers in the Zachodniopomorskie Voivodeship
Authors: Radlińska Kamila , Kasperska Ewa , Błażejowska Małgorzata , Pogonowski Igor
Published: April 2024

Placing a child in foster care is a last resort and should take place after all possible forms of support and assistance have been exhausted. However, if a child is placed under the care and upbringing of foster care, it is necessary to create conditions as close as possible to those of a family. Since 2000, the Polish foster care system has been subject to the process of deinstitutionalisation. The organisers of foster care were obliged to take actions aimed at reducing the importance of the foster care system in the full childcare system, a smooth transition to a system where full community-level childcare is provided. The aim of the article is to present the foster care system and directions of changes in foster care in quantitative terms and to evaluate the organisation of foster care in the context of the process of its deinstitutionalisation. The conclusions were based on statistical data analysis on the foster care system, which constituted the background for discussions by organisers of foster care in selected poviats of the Zachodniopomorskie Voivodeship. The system of foster care in Poland is based on family foster care. Reducing the number of institutional foster care facilities is possible, but in the current system, it is only likely to partially eliminate them. The most significant identified challenge of the foster care system is the dropping number of foster families. Additionally, the deinstitutionalisation of foster care requires, above all, measures to increase the effectiveness of the support system and upbringing of the child and natural family in the local environment.
A ESCOLA COMO MEDIADORA DO DESENVOLVIMENTO DE VALORES MORAIS NO ALUNO ATRAVÉS DO ENSINO RELIGIOSO
Authors: Ferreira Meriele Lima Batalha
Published: April 2024

Este estudo busca fornecer uma revisão concisa, mas abrangente, do papel da escola como mediadora do desenvolvimento de valores morais no aluno através do ensino religioso (ER), combinando conhecimento e ação moral, através de uma revisão de pesquisas pautadas em dados originais dos últimos 20 anos. Vem-se aqui fomentar o debate civilizado e o argumento fundamentado de que as relações existentes entre os valores promovidos pela educação moral e os valores da educação religiosa não são sobreposições, mas sim complementares. Assim, traz-se mais eficácia ao ER no reforço dos valores morais e bons costumes dos alunos - embora dependa, em grande medida, da capacidade docente para conceber atividades educativas aliando valores morais aos de cunho religioso. O objetivo busca discutir em que medida o ER nas escolas contribui para interiorização de componentes da moralidade social na personalidade do aluno, bem como a transposição para a prática de determinados comportamentos de acordo com valores morais. A metodologia, uma pesquisa bibliográfica, de cunho qualitativo e exploratório, buscará um aprofundamento maior nas implicações que o ER como disciplina curricular, e através da mediação docente, traz para o desenvolvimento dos valores morais nos alunos. Conclui-se que as implicações morais da disciplina de ER são muito relevantes no desenvolvimento de valores morais no aluno, apesar da confusão no currículo sobre seu propósito e objetivo, que limitam sua eficácia. Percebe-se ser essencial a formação continuada docente para reformulação da didática tornando as aulas mais criativas e motivadoras na promoção dos valores morais no ambiente escolar e no além da escola.

LEGAL ISSUES OF GENOCIDE
Authors: Hakobyan Hranush
Published: April 2024

The article is dedicated to the causes, stages and main features of the formation of the Armenian Diaspora. The author mentions that the Armenian Diaspora is one of the largest Diasporas in the world in terms of the proportion of people living in the Homeland and in the Diaspora, as 2/3 of the nation lives outside the borders of the nation state. Historically, it mainly arose as a result of the Armenian Genocide, and in Diaspora Studies it is accepted as a Diaspora with a victim status, such as the Jewish and Palestinian Diasporas. Reference is made to the legal status of the Armenian Diaspora in different states. It is registered as a constitutional community (Lebanon), a religious community (Iran), nongovernmental organization (Western Europe, America), a national minority (Eastern Europe) and so on. Reference is also made to the issues of international legal responsibility for the Armenian Genocide. The conclusion is drawn about the need to review and supplement the international law to an extent that its norms are applied on an imperative basis. If a UN member state commits a crime, violates international norms and fails to fulfill its obligations, then it should be subject to international responsibility, regardless of its natural reserves and resources. The author analyzes the three forms of reimbursement of damages caused by an international offense: restitution, compensation and satisfaction. The challenges faced by the Diaspora and the problems of preserving the national identity are discussed, ways of confronting and solutions to these problems are proposed.

The Issues related to the formation of the inquiry committees in the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia. The work is aimed at studying the experience of local and foreign countries regarding the creation of the inquiry committees and their legal status.
The creation of an inquiry commission with the requirement of a quarter of the total number of deputies is theoretically and practically problematic and may limit the use of this control tool by the parliamentary minority. Therefore, it was suggested to revise these regulations.
The application of the principle of popular legitimation in the basis of the formation of inquiry committees is considered inappropriate, because in parliamentary system of government, the committee mainly exercises control over the government formed by the majority. In the case of proportional formation of parliamentary forces, the control is of a formal nature and the minority both in the parliament and in the commission is not able to exercise effective conrol. The inquiry committee should have independence from the parliamentary majority, so it was suggested to review the proportional formation of the committee.

Authors: Dang Chi Binh , Vo Van Hien
Published: April 2024

Objectives: To evaluate the anesthetic effect and impacts on respiration, circulation, and some undesirable consequences of spinal anesthesia with ropivacaine in patients who are scheduled for lower limb surgery. Methods: A clinical interventional study, a randomized group with comparative analysis on 70 patients who were indicated for lower limb surgery at the Department of Surgery - Anesthesia and Resuscitation, Military Hospital 121, Military Region 9 (Can Tho province) from November 2022 to June 2023, randomly divided into 2 groups: Group R (35 patients treated with ropivacaine) and group B (35 patients treated with bupivacaine). Evaluate and compare the criteria of anesthetic effects, intraoperative movement inhibition, and postoperative pain relief. Record the effects of some criteria on circulation, respiration, and unwanted effects related to the anesthetic method. Results: All patients in both groups achieved a good level of anesthesia. In lower limb surgery, the effective pain relief time following spinal anesthesia with ropivacaine was 145.09 ± 7.03 minutes, and the movement inhibition duration was 97.60 ± 7.10 minutes. The effects of ropivacaine on circulation and respiration were minimal, and its side effects, such as bradycardia (5.71%), hypotension (2.86%), and shivering (2.86%), were mild, temporary, and readily managed. Conclusion: Ropivacaine provided effective and safe spinal anesthesia for lower limb surgery, and short-term mobility, and provided pain relief postoperatively. It caused some modest, temporary side effects that were easily managed, but it had little influence on breathing and circulation.

Objectives: To determine mortality characteristics of multiple trauma patients who were treated at Military Hospital 103. Methods: A prospective, descriptive study on 196 multiple trauma patients who were admitted and treated at the Surgical Intensive Care Unit (SICU), Military Hospital 103. Patients' clinical and subclinical data were collected at the time of admission, during treatment, and at the time of discharge from the SICU. The data were encoded and processed according to statistical methods. Results: The majority of multiple trauma patients were aged 20 - 40 (38.8%), mainly men (80.1%), and the main cause was traffic accidents (66.8%). The 30-day mortality rate of multiple trauma admitted to the SICU was 40.8%. The mortality rate within 24 and 48 hours after admission was 15.8% and 21.9%, respectively, then it gradually decreased over time. The main causes of death within the first 24 hours were traumatic shock (10.7%) and severe traumatic brain injury (5.1%), but the main cause of death after 24 hours was multiple organ failure (9.7%). Injury Severity Score (ISS) (HR 1.95; 95%CI: 1.05 - 3.64), brain trauma (HR 0.25; 95%CI: 0.09 - 0.70) and shock when arrival (HR 0.41; 95%CI: 0.22 - 0.75) were risk factors for survival over time in multiple trauma patients (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The mortality rate among multiple trauma patients was high. ISS, traumatic brain injury, and shock at the time of admission were risk factors for survival over time in patients with multiple traumas (p < 0.05). The main causes of death within the first 24 hours were traumatic shock and severe traumatic brain injury, but after 24 hours was multiple organ failure.
DNA-DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASE INHIBITOR INDUCES APOPTOSIS IN COLON CANCER CELLS
Authors: Tran Phuong Linh , Bui Khac Cuong
Published: April 2024

Objectives: Among all types of DNA damage, DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are considered the most deleterious form induced by either endogenous factors (oxi-dative damages, mismatches, altered chromatin structures, and missing, or modified nucleotides) or exogenous factors, i.e., ultraviolet (UV) radiation, ionizing radiation (IR), and chemicals or drugs. DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) plays a crucial role in repairing DSBs through non-homologous end joining (NHEJ). Cells lacking DNA-PK exhibit heightened sensitivity to IR and various DNA-damaging agents. The inhibition of DNA-PK further intensifies cellular susceptibility to IR and DNA-damaging agents. Several small molecules that inhibit DNA-PK have been developed. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of DNA-PK inhibitor (DNA-PKi) NU7441 on the HCT116 cell line. Methods: DNA-PKi NU7441 was used to assess the effect on anti-proliferation and induction of apoptosis on the HCT116 colorectal cancer cell line. Cells were cultured under standard conditions; crystal violet and apoptosis assay were applied to evaluate cell proliferation and apoptosis. Data were analysed using GraphPad Prism 8.4. Results: DNA-PKi effectively inhibited HCT116 colon cancer cell growth via crystal violet assay (p < 0.01). In addition, DNA-PKi also induced programmed cell death in the HCT116 cell line (p < 0.05). Conclusion: DNA-PKi NU7441 suppressed cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in the HCT116 colon cancer cell line.

Objectives: To investigate the proportion of mental disorders and military-related factors among recruited inpatients. Methods: A retrospective study on 296 recruits treated in the Department of Psychiatry, Military Hospital 103 from 2022 to 2023 compared to 126 military recruiting-naïve participants obtained from community patients treated at the same department and during the same period. Diagnostic criteria were based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition of the American Psychiatric Association. Results: Most mental disorders had the onset within 6 months of recruitment (51.7%) and were more common in lower military rank (78.3%). Out of several main mental disorders, major depressive disorder and schizophrenia were prominent (22.6% and 17.9%, respectively). However, the proportion of schizophrenia in recruited inpatients was double lesser than in community inpatients (17.9% and 51.6%, respectively). Dissociative disorders and factitious disorders were unique in recruited inpatients compared with community inpatients with mental health disorders (13.5% and 13.9% vs 0.8% and 0%, respectively). Conclusion: In the military, the proportion of mental disorders of recruited inpatients compared with community control inpatients is different not only by a higher percentage of dissociative disorders and factitious disorders but also by a smaller percentage of schizophrenia.

Published: April 2024

Micronutrients play an important role in enriching the soil nutrients and thereby improve the quantity and quality of products. The wide spread occurrence of micronutrient deficiencies over a decade is due to cultivation of crops in problem soils and on marginal lands such as sandy soil which is low in organic matter. The present study is to analyse the multidimensional behaviour of the farmers for adoption of micronutrients and their influence in coconut farming. Both Primary and Secondary data is used for the study. Coimbatore district is purposefully selected for the study as recommended by the case firm. Based on the time and resource available with the researcher the sample size was fixed as 90 farmers. Percentage analysis was used to study the general characteristic of the consumers which include age, education, gender, income, etc. The marginal effects of a change in one of the independent variables on the probability of adoption level were calculated by using probit model. Education and experience were the positively influencing factors on adopting micronutrients. Age and annual income of the farmer were the negatively influencing factors for adopting micronutrients among the respondents. Therefore, the firm could concentrate on the factors like experience and education status of farmer to improve its market. Quality of the product was ranked as the most important factor followed by the farmer’s preference, company image, promotional activities and credit availability.

Authors: Gutiérrez Nava Miguel Alberto , Serafin Badillo Michell , Martínez Cárdenas Karina , García Piceno Yolanda
Published: April 2024

México afronta un persistente rezago educativo que ejerce un impacto considerable en segmentos vulnerables de su población, entre los que se cuentan personas con discapacidad, individuos en desventaja socioeconómica y aquellos excluidos del sistema educativo debido a discriminación basada en preferencias sexuales, origen étnico, religión o cultura. Este desafío se agrava por la continua variabilidad de las políticas educativas, las cuales se transforman con cada nueva administración gubernamental, en busca de alinear la educación con el proyecto de nación en curso. También perdura la influencia negativa de modelos educativos del pasado que enfatizaban la memorización por encima del razonamiento y el pensamiento crítico. Además, la educación encara cambios incesantes en las teorías de aprendizaje, métodos de enseñanza y la introducción de nuevas tecnologías, para las cuales tanto docentes como estudiantes a menudo carecen de la capacitación adecuada. La infraestructura deficiente en las instituciones educativas representa un obstáculo importante para lograr un aprendizaje efectivo. En conjunto, estos factores presentan un reto significativo para la mejora de la educación en México. En respuesta a esta problemática, se llevó a cabo una revisión bibliográfica de la literatura con el objetivo de describir la historia de la educación en México, desde la época prehispánica hasta la actualidad. Para ello, se consultaron diversas fuentes, incluyendo publicaciones de instituciones gubernamentales mexicanas, como la Secretaría de Educación Pública, así como repositorios de instituciones educativas prestigiosas, como la UNAM. También se realizaron búsquedas en publicaciones científicas a través de buscadores especializados, como Google Académico, y se consultaron bases de datos especializadas, como Scielo y Dialnet, utilizando palabras clave como "historia," "sistema de educación" y "educación en México". La búsqueda se limitó a publicaciones en español y se consideraron los años comprendidos entre 2015 y 2023.

Introduction. L’efficacité thérapeutique du médecin est conditionnée par la qualité de la relation qu’il instaure avec son patient. L’assertivité est un concept communicationnel répondant aux critères d’optimisation de cette relation. Des similitudes apparaissent entre assertivité et théâtre sans qu’aucun lien ait été établi dans la littérature. Dans la consultation médicale, en quoi la pratique du théâtre par le médecin permet un comportement se rapprochant d’un comportement assertif ? L’objectif de ce travail était de recueillir le ressenti de médecins généralistes concernant l’apport de leur pratique d’une activité théâtrale loisir dans la relation médecin-patient. Méthode. Il s’agissait d’une étude qualitative, par entretiens individuels semi-dirigés, de novembre 2020 à avril 2021, auprès de médecins généralistes recrutés par le bouche-à-oreille. L’analyse a été effectuée dans une démarche inductive, et selon la méthode de théorisation ancrée. Elle reposait sur l’encodage des données recueillies à l’aide du logiciel NVivo12®. Une triangulation de l’encodage a été effectuée. Résultats. L’analyse des résultats met en évidence des points communs entre le monde professionnel médical, l’assertivité et le théâtre. Le travail de l’émotion et de l’expression verbale et non verbale, médié par le théâtre, semble s’appliquer à une relation médecin-patient authentique et favoriser l’approche centrée sur le patient. Discussion. Le théâtre semble être un outil favorisant le développement de l’interaction médecin-patient, en respectant les critères de définition de l’assertivité.
Luminothérapie dans les troubles du sommeil. Une revue systématique et méta-analyse
Authors: BERKHOUT C
Published: April 2024

Publication originale de Chambe J, Reynaud E, Maruani J, Fraih E, Geoffroy PA, Bourgin P (Université de Strasbourg) L’insomnie touche 30 à 50 % de la population adulte et la prévalence de l’insomnie chronique est estimée entre 5 et 7 %, selon les études, les pays et les classifications. Les troubles du sommeil font partie des dix motifs de consultation les plus fréquents en médecine générale et les médecins comme les patients recherchent des traitements alternatifs aux hypnotiques. Ces derniers représentent une solution à court terme. Néanmoins, ils sont régulièrement utilisés comme traitement à long terme devant la pression des patients insomniaques et la difficulté de mise en place des règles d’hygiène du sommeil et des thérapies cognitivo-comportementales (TCC). Des alternatives thérapeutiques sont donc toujours recherchées, et la luminothérapie (LT) pourrait en faire partie.
Développement de Beyfortus® (nirsévimab) dans la bronchiolite à VRS
Authors: POUCHAIN D , TUDREJ B , LE ROUX G , BOUSSAGEON R
Published: April 2024

En novembre 2023, la revue exercer a publié un article détaillant l’efficacité et les effets indésirables de Beyfortus® (nirsévimab) dans l’indication « Prévention de la bronchiolite à virus respiratoire syncytial (VRS) chez les nourrissons âgés de moins de 1 an ». À cette époque, l’efficacité de cet anticorps monoclonal sur la réduction des épisodes de bronchiolite à VRS était démontrée, à l’opposé de celle sur les hospitalisations qui demeurait sujette à caution. L’essai HARMONIE, randomisé en ouvert, avait pour objectif principal de remédier à cette incertitude. Ses résultats prétendent démontrer l’efficacité significative de ce médicament sur les hospitalisations pour infection respiratoire basse à VRS, y compris les très sévères. Cependant, la randomisation en ouvert et le choix d’un critère de jugement principal subjectif dans cet essai obèrent la plausibilité des résultats. En l’absence d’essai randomisé en double insu comparatif versus placebo correctement conçu et conduit en « vraie vie », l’efficacité de Beyfortus® sur les hospitalisations pour bronchiolite à VRS n’est toujours pas formellement établie.

Contexte. Un tiers des patients consultant un médecin généraliste ont déjà eu des épisodes d’insomnie. Les benzodiazépines et apparentées sont les médicaments les plus utilisés pour cette pathologie. Le lorazépam n’a pas d’autorisation de mise sur le marché dans le traitement de l’insomnie primaire, mais peut être utilisé en cas d’insomnie secondaire. Objectif. Évaluer l’efficacité du lorazépam dans le traitement de l’insomnie, primaire et secondaire. Méthodes. Une revue systématique de la littérature a été menée selon les recommandations PRISMA, à partir des bases de données Medline®, Embase®, Cochrane® et ClinicalTrials.gov. Ont été inclus les essais contrôlés randomisés (ECR) comparant le lorazépam à un placebo ou à d’autres benzodiazépines ou molécules apparentées, chez des patients souffrant d’insomnie seule ou associée à d’autres pathologies. Le critère de jugement principal était la qualité du sommeil ; les critères de jugement secondaires étaient la latence d’endormissement, le nombre de réveils et la tolérance. Les risques de biais ont été évalués par l’outil de la Cochrane ROB 2. Une analyse complémentaire sur le caractère confirmatoire des résultats a été réalisée. Résultats. Sur 1 865 références, 4 ECR ont été inclus. Tous évaluaient l’insomnie secondaire. Le premier ECR concernait 18 patients post-accident vasculaire cérébral suivis 7 jours ; le deuxième concernait 20 patientes de géronto-psychiatrie suivies 7 jours ; le troisième 120 patients dépressifs suivis 8 semaines ; le quatrième ECR concernait 44 patients anxieux suivis 28 jours. La qualité du sommeil, évaluée dans le premier, le troisième et le quatrième ECR, était améliorée dans les deux derniers. Le deuxième ECR évaluait la latence d’endormissement et le nombre de réveils nocturnes, sans montrer d’amélioration. Le risque de biais était élevé pour toutes les études. Conclusion. En raison du faible nombre d’études, de leur qualité méthodologique discutable, de leur diversité, il est impossible de conclure sur l’efficacité du lorazépam dans l’insomnie primaire ou secondaire.

Published: April 2024

Introduction. La collaboration interprofessionnelle devant l’ampleur de la crise sanitaire du Covid-19 est à réévaluer et à actualiser. L’objectif de cette étude était de tirer des récits d’expériences réalisés par les étudiants de 3e cycle de médecine générale de Rennes dans les suites du premier confinement, leur vécu et réflexions sur le « travailler ensemble ». Méthode. Analyse de données textuelles, portant sur 287 récits écrits par les étudiants de médecine générale de la subdivision rennaise entre avril et juin 2020, avec une analyse de données textuelles sur 35 textes identifiés comme relevant des relations interprofessionnelles. Résultats. Cette étude a permis de mettre en avant l’intérêt des étudiants de premier semestre et des étudiants en stage hospitalier durant la rédaction des récits concernant le « travailler ensemble ». Elle montre l’importance des décisions, des tensions et de leur cadre organisationnel. La mutualisation des compétences est la nature de relation prédominante dans les textes. La direction autoritaire s’oppose à la fédération d’acteurs, tandis que des réunions exacerbant le conflit s’opposent à une médiation d’équipe. La fédération est rapportée aux récits de stages ambulatoires, le conflit aux récits de stages hospitaliers. Conclusion. Ce travail soulève plusieurs notions déjà constatées en sciences sociales, et permet des pistes de réflexion. Il montre l’influence de la structure sur la pratique du travail collectif. Les internes ont pu développer leur pouvoir d’agir et conscientisé leurs compétences durant cette crise sanitaire.

Published: April 2024

Skeletal muscle-related studies have recently been applied in the combat of obesity and metabolic disorders. Culture skeletal muscle cells in in vitro plays an important role in being a promising model for those researches. In the present study, the C2C12 skeletal muscle cells were grown and differentiated in in vitro. The C2C12 myoblasts were grown in Dulbecco’s modified eagle’s medium (DMEM) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) for 4 – 5 days. The cells then reached confluent about 70% to 100% and the medium was shifted to DMEM plus 2% horse serum which leads the grown C2C12 cells becoming to differentiated myotubes. Myogenin mRNA levels were found to be significantly higher in the differentiated myotubes than those in the growing cells confirming the successful formation of the differentiated C2C12 cells. These results indicate that the C2C12 cell line is suitable for culture in in vitro to mimic a skeletal muscle microenvironment for further investigations.
Algebraic dependences of meromorphic mappings sharing few moving hyperplanes with truncated multiplicity
Authors: Ha Huong-Giang
Published: April 2024

In this article, we will prove an algebraic dependence theorem for meromorphic mappings into a complex projective space sharing few moving hyperplanes with different truncated multiplicity. Moreover, we also consider the weaker condition: \[\nu _{(f,{a_i}), \le k_i}\le \nu _{(g,{a_i}), \le k_i} \text{ instead of } \nu _{(f,{a_i}), \le k_i}= \nu_{(g,{a_i}), \le k_i}\] for some moving hyperplanes  among the given moving hyperplanes. In order to implement this, besides using the technique reported by S. D. Quang in (Two meromorphic mappings having the same inverse images of some moving hyperplanes with truncated multiplicity, Rocky Mountain J. Math., vol. 52, no. 1, pp. 263–273, 2022) we have to separate the 2n + 2 moving hyperplanes  from the given p+1 moving hyperplanes. After that, we count multiples of the intersection of the inverse images of the mappings f and g sharing these moving hyperplanes. Our result is an improvement of many previous results in this topic.

Published: April 2024

Photoluminescent composites that are air-stable and water-resistant are important for outdoor applications such as road marking paints, light-converting membranes, fluorescent paints, and security inks. Photoluminescent thermoplastics fulfill all conditions but their preparation methods which are vastly based on mixing pre-synthesized fluorescent dyes and plastic could lead to emission quenching due to dye aggregation or thermal degradation. Herein, we demonstrated a simple method to prepare photoluminescent polycarbonate by thermal extrusion polycarbonate with citric acid and urea. UV-vis absorption and photoluminescent studies indicate that fluorescent carbon materials were formed via pyrolysis of the citrate. The composites exhibit light blue emission and a broad excitation band. The results demonstrated herein offer a cost-effective method to prepare diverse photoluminescent composites for outdoor applications.
Solvability Analysis of high-order Linear Differential-Algebraic Equations with time-varying coefficients
Authors: Ha-Phi
Published: April 2024

In this paper, we study the solvability analysis of arbitrarily high-order linear differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) with time-varying coefficients, using the algebraic-behavior approach. We propose a concept of strangeness-index and construct condensed forms for high-order linear DAEs. We also discuss other structural properties like the existence and uniqueness of a solution, consistency and smoothness requirements for an initial vector and for an inhomogeneity. Our work extends the algebraic approach for DAEs and combines this approach with the behavior approach to establish a reformulation algorithm that reveals an underlying ordinary differential equation (ODE) and all hidden constraints in the DAE. This direct treatment of the system addresses the limitations of the classical approach to transforming the system into a first-order DAE. We illustrate our theoretical results with applications in mechanical systems and electrical circuits. This comprehensive study into general high-order systems is a natural progression from the extensive study of first and second-order DAEs.
Some properties of a complex symmetric operator
Authors: Kathuria Ritu
Published: April 2024

A square matrix with complex entries which is equal to its transpose is called a complex symmetric matrix. Such matrices are found in many areas of pure and applied mathematics. A conjugation on H is defined as a conjugate linear isometric involution C on a Hilbert Space H. A bounded linear operator T : H → H has a complex symmetric matrix with regard to an orthonormal basis if, for every conjugation C on H, T = CT *C. Such an operator is called a Complex symmetric operator. Several characteristics of Complex Symmetric matrices and associated operators are discussed in this article.
