Authors: Flores Arriagada Daniela , Luengo Machuca Luis , González-Burboa Alexis
Published: December 2024

Introducción. El sueño es un importante indicador de salud, fundamental para el funcionamiento y rendimiento diario. Una mala calidad del sueño afecta la salud general, generando efectos negativos a largo plazo. Odontología es una de las carreras más exigentes dentro del área de la salud, donde los estudiantes suelen cambiar sus hábitos y horarios de sueño para cumplir con sus deberes. Por lo anterior, son considerados un grupo de alto riesgo para presentar una mala calidad del sueño y desarrollar efectos negativos asociados. Se planteó como objetivo describir la calidad del sueño de un grupo de estudiantes de la carrera de Odontología de la Universidad de Concepción, Chile. Materiales y métodos. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo de corte transversal donde 150 estudiantes respondieron un cuestionario autoadministrado vía online, el cual contenía preguntas sociodemográficas, del ambiente de sueño y el Índice de Calidad de Sueño de Pittsburgh (PSQI). Resultados. El 72,0% (n=108) de los participantes presentaron una mala calidad del sueño, con un puntaje total medio de 7,8 (DE=3,3). Peores resultados se observaron en mujeres y estudiantes de primer año. Se encontraron diferencias relevantes al estratificar según establecimiento de egreso de cuarto medio, financiamiento de estudios superiores, percepción de seguridad en su barrio, nivel de ruido al dormir, sistema previsional y situación laboral. Conclusión. Los estudiantes de odontología de la Universidad de Concepción presentaron una mala calidad del sueño, siendo el nivel socioeconómico y el ambiente de sueño aspectos relevantes al evaluar la calidad del sueño en este grupo.
Paros armados y guerra interna en Colombia, 2000-2022
Authors: Mercado Vega Armando José , Higuera Torres Orlando Javier
Published: December 2024

El siguiente artículo realiza una investigación exploratoria sobre los paros armados en Colombia. Pese a ser una práctica usada por grupos irregulares en nuestro conflicto armado y otros, ha sido muy poco estudiada. Se conceptualizaron los paros armados como un tipo de repertorio de violencia usado por grupos irregulares para ejercer su gobernanza armada y demostrar control territorial o mandar un mensaje. A partir de una revisión documental de fuentes secundarias se construyó una base de datos original sobre los paros armados ocurridos en los últimos 22 años en Colombia. Algunas conclusiones preliminares señalan que las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (FARC-EP) y el Ejército de Liberación Nacional (ELN) han sido las guerrillas que más recurrieron a esta práctica, aunque, posteriormente fue también adoptada por grupos paramilitares y grupos posdesmovilización de las Autodefensas Unidas de Colombia (AUC). Esta es la primera investigación académica que ha estudiado los paros armados de manera sistemática.
What, Why, How and by Whom? Reflections on the Hashtag Movements, the Politics of Knowledge Production and Academic Literacy Pedagogies in South African Higher Education
Authors: Angu Pineteh
Published: December 2024

This article draws primarily on the relevant literature to reflect on two critical moments that changed the South African (SA) higher education landscape: #Rhodesmustfall and #Feesmustfall. It examines how universities have responded to the calls for curriculum decolonisation in the aftermath of the hashtag movements and the implications for reimagining Academic Literacy (AL) pedagogies in SA universities. The article is framed around two arguments. First, although Rhodes fell during the student protests, it did not dismantle the resilient institutional cultures that have sustained racial and epistemic hierarchies. In the context of AL, these epistemic hierarchies often influence module contents, pedagogies and assessment practices. Second, given the socio-economic challenges in SA, curriculum decolonisation should inspire transformative practices in classroom spaces. The article therefore concludes that AL pedagogies should focus on providing students with key cognitive competencies and literacies that can assist them to participate in disrupting Western epistemic domination, increasing their chances of academic success and employability. To achieve these, AL curricula should include discipline/context-specific indigenous and culturally inclusive pedagogies. In addition, lecturers should use a mixture of academic texts that allow students to recognise and appreciate the fact there are different ways of being, knowing and doing.
Hendiatris? An Analysis of Triverbal Serial Verb Constructions in Biblical Hebrew Narrative
Authors: Moser Tyler M.
Published: December 2024

Abstract: Constructions in the Hebrew Bible which consist of two or more contiguous verbs yet convey the idea of a singular event have broadly been subsumed under the term "hendiadys" – a label which is applied both to verbal and nominal constructions in which two elements together express a single idea. Hebrew grammars vary in their treatment of such verbal constructions, either understanding one of the verbs adverbially, or logically subordinating one verb to another, or else reanalyzing one verb as an interjection of sorts. Most grammars and analyses focus primarily on biverbal constructions, likely due to their preponderance in the Hebrew Bible; however, there are also a number of triverbal constructions that can help us open up new avenues of research into Hebrew verbal syntax. In this paper, I focus on triverbal constructions in BH prose, mainly drawn from the Deuteronomistic History and consider them in light of new theoretical developments in Semitic linguistics regarding "Serial Verb Constructions" (SVC). Using a typological prototype-driven approach to SVCs, as developed by Aikhenvald and Andrason, I analyze a number of triverbal sequences in BH. I find that non-canonical triverbal SVCs do occur in the Hebrew Bible, but only within certain parameters and always with at least one verb which, according to Chrzanowski, functions as an auxiliary verb elsewhere. These findings corroborate Andrason's postulate that BH's non-canonical SVCs will exhibit more disunity, which in turn corresponds to the diachronical development of serial verbs in BH.
Feminism and Mizrahi Identity in the Poetry of Esther Shkalim: The Poems about Serah Daughter of Asher and the Female Family Lineage as a Test Case
Authors: Ofer Rachel
Published: December 2024

Abstract: The feminine voice audible in the work of Esther Shkalim (b. 1954), a Mizrahi Israeli feminist woman poet, is a unique, dualistic, and complex poetic voice; alongside the protest expressed in her poems against the Mizrahi tradition of her mother and grandmothers, who believed in silencing the feminine voice and restricting it to the circumscribed domestic environment, there is an expression of her deep connection to them and to their tradition. The Serah poems discussed in this article express Shkalim's feminine and Mizrahi identity and are representative of the whole corpus of her poetry, which is a part of the phenomenon of Mizrahi feminism and its literary expressions. Serah daughter of Asher, and granddaughter of Jacob, is mentioned twice in the Hebrew bible, and nothing is recorded concerning her except her name and that of her father. In rabbinic literature, however, she is depicted as a wise woman with power and influence. In Persian-Jewish folklore she is seen as a saintly figure. In Esther Shkalim's poems, written under the inspiration of these traditions, she examines her relationship with the figure of Serah, and also with the women in her family who believed in her powers and prayed to her. Serah symbolizes the traditional heritage of Mizrahi women, and Shkalim feels the pain of the rejection of this heritage within modern Israeli society. Her poems reflect one of the sensitive social issues that Israeli society has been contending with from its early days up to the present: the pain of immigrants from Oriental countries to Israel who felt that Ashkenazi Israeli society had not given their heritage the place it deserved.
Aceh, Syari'ah
Authors: Idria Reza
Published: December 2024

Abstract: Drawing on my fieldwork journey with Professor James T. Siegel, this article examines the implementation of Syari'ah (Islamic law) in Aceh, Indonesia. It explores the political motivations behind the introduction of Syari'ah in 1999 and analyzes its evolution following the 2004 tsunami and the peace agreement that ended three decades of separatist conflict in the region. My work also reflects the broader implications of Syari'ah implementation, focusing on how the ulama (religious authorities) and provincial government navigated the post-conflict landscape to maintain their influence and legitimacy. Through personal anecdotes and ethnographic fieldwork conducted from 2007 to 2015, this article captures interactions with diverse segments of Acehnese society, including tsunami survivors and victims of moral policing. Central to the discussion is the controversial practice of public caning, with detailed accounts of punishment ceremonies and their public reception, exposing the inherent tensions between local practices, Islamic values, and contemporary legal frameworks.
Jim Siegel, Beyond Anthropology, Beyond Ben, Beyond Comparison in the Study of Indonesian Politics
Authors: Sidel John T.
Published: December 2024

Abstract: This article explores the diverse and distinctive ways in which James T. Siegel and his students have contributed to the development of the study of Indonesia and in particular the study of Indonesian politics. Beyond anthropology, the article suggests, the work of Siegel and his students has, in a critical departure from the writings of Clifford Geertz and a constructive dialogue with the work of Benedict Anderson, provided important original insights and understandings with regard to the trajectories of modern Acehnese and Indonesian history.
Why COVID-19 Still Matters: A Geographer's Perspective
Authors: Bezdecny Kris
Published: December 2024

ABSTRACT: This essay is adapted from the APCG Presidential address delivered at the eighty-fifth annual APCG conference in Ventura, California. The address summarized the ebb and flow of the sociopolitical responses to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. While initially the world engaged in a collective effort to mitigate this new disease, over time a more individualistic approach developed. This left vulnerable populations to bear the sociopolitical brunt of a severe disease continuing to infect, hospitalize, disable, and kill at rates higher than pre-pandemic rates. This essay frames this transition within a Malthusian approach to disease, where a eugenicist approach became dominant over a more traditional public health or collective community approach.
In and Out of Berkeley Geography, 1951–1963
Authors: Denevan William M.
Published: December 2024

ABSTRACT: I graduated as a geography major from the University of California, Berkeley (1951–1953). After two years in the Navy, I came back as a graduate student, did not do well, and spent the next year traveling in South America and Nicaragua. Returning, I wrote my master's thesis on the pine forests in highland Nicaragua. After a year working in Washington, D.C., I returned to Berkeley in 1959. I did research in Bolivian Amazonia for my PhD, completed in 1963. Carl Sauer was my inspiration, but Jim Parsons was my mentor. I was hired by the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where I remained for thirty years. I was in and out of Berkeley Geography from 1951 until 1963, dropping out several times and then reentering. I became a geographer at Berkeley over seventy years ago, and I have continued relationships with Berkeley Geography since then.
O imigrante português na Primeira República carioca: o antilusitanismo no mundo do trabalho
Authors: Souza Carolina Moraes
Published: December 2024

Este artigo tem como objetivo revelar os fatores do antagonismo na relação entre portugueses e brasileiros no contexto urbano carioca entre os anos de 1890 e 1930. Estimulados pelas leis pró-imigração, pela proximidade cultural e da língua, a “terra da promissão”, como era conhecido o Brasil no período republicano, prometia aos europeus recém-chegados a oportunidade de acumular riquezas e de construir patrimónios. Contudo, os imigrantes disputavam espaços no mercado de trabalho com brasileiros e, principalmente, com os ex-libertos do sistema escravista. As teorias raciais, as condições de trabalho das grandes cidades e os ideais nacionalistas fortaleciam hostilidades no cenário da nova república, renovando conflitos sociais dos tempos da colonização.
«Tudo, como vês, é cheio de tristura: às abelhas o campo nega as flores, / e às flores a aurora nega o orvalho»
Authors: Pupillo Matteo
Published: December 2024

Por ocasião do quinto centenário de Luís Vaz de Camões, o presente artigo, valendo-se dos contributos da Ecocrítica e da Camonística, propõe-se fazer uma leitura da Écloga 1, intitulada Que grande variedade vão fazendo. Levou-se a cabo esta análise tendo em consideração dois propósitos: por um lado, i) atentou-se nas estrofes em que a paisagem é sobejamente textualizada, observando nela o encadeamento de elementos antropofónicos, biofónicos e geofónicos (Krauss 2008); por outro lado, ii) concentrando-se na relação entre os pastores e a natureza, procurou-se testemunhar da relevância do ecossistema na construção literária do poema, demonstrando como a paisagem não constitui apenas um dispositivo cénico, ou um pano de fundo. Por último, dado que a écloga é um código genológico aberto, isto é, enformado por outras tradições, assinalaram-se alguns exemplos de imitatio com respeito ao bucolismo.

Authors: Jassoom Hayder Hameed , Abdoon Rabab Saadoon
Published: December 2024

Land use and land cover studies are fundamental to achieving sustainable development goals by providing the information necessary for informed decision-making in social and economic development and natural resource management. This study relied on remote sensing data to analyze and
assess land use and land cover changes in Babil Province, Iraq, over the past two decades. The study focused on identifying the patterns and factors influencing these changes, using Landsat satellite imagery to create digital maps classifying land into four main categories: urban lands, bare
soil lands, water bodies, and vegetation lands. The results showed a noticeable expansion of urban lands at the expense of bare soil lands, primarily attributed to population growth, economic development, and improved security conditions. This study underscores the importance of sustainable
land management and urban planning in Babil Province. These results highlight the importance of sustainable land management in Babil Province, including sound urban planning considering urban expansion's environmental, social, and economic effects. The classification was implemented using
a maximum likelihood classifier, and the accuracy assessment yielded satisfactory results with an overall accuracy of 93.5517%. This study encourages using artificial intelligence to track and analyze land use changes in Babil.
Remote Sensing Tailing Pond Image–Detection Method Based on YOLOv8-RVSW
Authors: Dang Zhengjun , Li Kun
Published: December 2024

This study proposes an automated tailings pond-detection method based on the YOLOv8-RVSW model to address the limitations of traditional surveys. A tailings pond dataset was created using high-resolution satellite images, and data quality was improved through data augmentation techniques.
In the model, YOLOv8's backbone feature network was replaced with RepViT to effectively capture global and local information. Additionally, the C2f module was enhanced to QuadraSE_C2f to focus on essential feature channels, and WIoUv3 was used as the loss function to improve object localization
and detection accuracy. Experimental results indicate that compared with the original model, accuracy increased by 3.9% to 97.4%, recall improved by 4.9% to 96.3%, and mean average precision rose by 2.4% to 98.5%. This method significantly enhances the automation and intelligence of tailings
pond monitoring, providing an effective tool for emergency monitoring.
Image Fusion in Remote Sensing: An Overview and Meta-Analysis
Authors: Albanwan Hessah , Qin Rongjun , Tang Yang
Published: December 2024

Remote sensing image fusion is consistently used to turn raw images of different resolutions, sources, and modalities into accurate, complete, and spatiotemporally coherent images. It facilitates downstream applications such as pan sharpening, change detection, and classification. However,
image fusion solutions are highly disparate to various remote sensing problems and are often narrowly defined in existing reviews as topical applications (e. g., pan sharpening). Theoretically, image fusion can be applied to any gridded data through pixel-level operations; thus, we expand
its scope by comprehensively surveying relevant works. We develop a simple taxonomy for many-to-one and many-to-many image fusion, defining it as a mapping problem turning one or multiple images into another set based on desired coherence. Furthermore, we provide a meta-analysis to cover 10,420
peer-reviewed papers from the 1980s to 2023 studying various types of image fusion and their applications. Finally, we discuss image fusion's benefits and emerging challenges to provide open research directions.
O Programa Educacional de Resistência às Drogas (Proerd) e o Curso de Formação de Soldados: por uma geração de pedagogos da cidadania
Authors: Magalhães Daniel Oliveira , Souza Diogo Barros de , Ferreira Daniel Victor de Sousa
Published: December 2024

O Proerd tem sido aplicado pelas polícias militares de todos os Estados brasileiros. Em salas de aula, como docentes, policiais militares ensinam cidadania para crianças e adolescentes. Ao mesmo tempo, os Cursos de Formação de Soldados (CFSd) continuam no propósito de formar policiais capazes de promover cidadania no exercício de suas práticas policiais. Diante das possíveis contribuições do Proerd, não apenas aos alunos do Ensino Fundamental I, mas, também, a própria relação da cultura policial militar com a cidadania, este artigo objetiva: sugerir proposições de melhorias ao CFSd a partir do Proerd. Por meio da Análise de Conteúdo, analisou-se a aderência dos conceitos contidos na coletânea de manuais do Instrutor Proerd à Matriz Curricular do CFSd. Os resultados mostram que, além do Proerd, a temática cidadania também está presente nos cursos de formação policial. Sob a ótica das possíveis contribuições do Proerd para o CFSd, apresentou-se, como proposições de melhorias, alterações nos estágios supervisionados que considerem a relação do policial com o público civil e na grade curricular do CFSd, com a criação de uma nova disciplina e de projetos de extensão. Embora a PMMG já busque promover cidadania aos novos soldados, assim como às crianças e aos adolescentes atendidos pelo Proerd, este artigo mostrou que é possível otimizar a transmissão dos pressupostos de cidadania na formação policial. De modo indireto contribui, também, com a melhoria das políticas públicas de segurança.

Authors: Silva Leandro Félix da , Souza Bartolomeu Israel de , Bacani Vitor Matheus
Published: December 2024

No semiárido brasileiro, o desmatamento histórico cria grandes áreas degradadas, inclusive em Unidades de Conservação (UCs). O objetivo deste trabalho é identificar, analisar e comparar as áreas onde se concentram os maiores e menores níveis de Índice de Umidade Superficial do Solo (IUSS), em áreas degradadas e com cobertura vegetal em duas UCs localizadas nos Cariris Velhos/PB. Utilizou-se um conjunto de pontos obtidos por meio de trabalhos de campo e de imagens de satélite, sendo mensurados os níveis de IUSS a partir da obtenção e combinação de dados sobre a Temperatura de Superfície (TS) e o Índice de Vegetação da Diferença Normalizada (IVDN), durante os períodos chuvoso e seco. Os resultados apontaram que, nas duas UCs, os pontos referentes às áreas degradadas apresentaram IUSS baixo, TS elevada e IVDN baixo, enquanto as áreas preservadas apresentaram níveis elevados de IUSS e IVDN, além de valores altos de biomassa.
DESENVOLVIMENTO DO ÍNDICE TURCLIMA: UMA METODOLOGIA PARA AVALIAR A VULNERABILIDADE E RESILIÊNCIA DE DESTINOS TURÍSTICOS COSTEIROS EM RELAÇÃO ÀS MUDANÇAS CLIMÁTICAS
Authors: Santos Erick da Silva , Marengo José Antônio
Published: December 2024

O turismo mundial atingiu 1,5 bilhão de visitantes internacionais em 2019, confirmando a força deste fenômeno social. Entretanto, as mudanças climáticas são uma ameaça global para o turismo, principalmente para os segmentos que dependem do clima como o de sol, praia e mar. Projeções mostram que os eventos naturais extremos devem aumentar em frequência e intensidade, provocando inundações repentinas, deslizamentos de terra, vendavais, bem como escassez de água. Poucos estudos avaliam a vulnerabilidade e a resiliência do turismo em relação a tais eventos e os que existem, apresentam perspectiva reducionista, com abordagem em partes e não em todo o sistema turístico. Neste contexto, este trabalho objetiva desenvolver um modelo genérico e inovador que integra a abordagem qualitativa e quantitativa para criar um índice de avaliação da vulnerabilidade e resiliência dos destinos turísticos costeiros em relação às mudanças climáticas, com foco em todo o sistema de turismo em nível de destino. Como resultado, 55 indicadores são apresentados para compor as nove dimensões do Índice TurClima, uma ferramenta promissora para auxiliar qualquer destino costeiro a mapear os fatores que causam vulnerabilidade (limitações) e aumentam a resiliência (oportunidades para adaptação) ante um clima em constante e rápida alteração.

Este estudo tem por objetivo analisar possíveis fatores associados à evolução epidemiológica, segundo a incidência da dengue na região Sul do Brasil. Foram coletados dados de variáveis sociodemográficas e geográficas de cada um dos 1.191 municípios da região Sul do Brasil provindos do Datasus e IBGE entre os anos de 2014 a 2022. Os dados foram agrupados em uma planilha eletrônica e transformados em Log (x+1) e submetidos a estatística descritiva e inferencial (teste t de Student, análise de variância OneWay ANOVA, NMDS e PCA). Dentre as variáveis analisadas, observou-se que a dengue está presente na região Sul do Brasil, com associação positiva à ocorrência relacionada a rodovias federais (BR 163, BR 101, BR 277, BR 285 e BR 287), latitude entre 22ºS a 35ºS, extensão territorial e esgotamento sanitário. Ainda, março, abril e maio foram os meses que houve maior ocorrência de dengue na região Sul, com destaque para 2015, 2016, 2019, 2020 e 2022. Nota-se um padrão heterogêneo de ocorrência na região Sul, que se alastra para locais até então sem notificação, seguindo um modelo de possibilidade de endemização da dengue na região Sul do Brasil.

Authors: Lima Junior Antonio Ferreira , Zanella Maria Elisa
Published: December 2024

Como consequência do processo de urbanização, o clima das cidades desenvolve características singulares, que interferem na qualidade de vida dos citadinos. Este estudo objetivou aplicar o Mapeamento Climático Urbano para estabelecer Zonas Climáticas Urbanas, direcionando o planejamento da cidade de Fortaleza, tendo em vista os parâmetros de uso e cobertura do solo (UCMap), a temperatura de superfície da Terra (Landsat 8) e as condições de velocidade do vento (Global Wind Atlas), integralizando essas informações para estabelecer áreas homogêneas. Através de Sistema de Informações Geográficas, foram estabelecidas três zonas climáticas urbanas (UCZ 1, 2 e 3), onde se recomenda preservar e melhorar os ambientes, implementar algumas medidas de preservação e mitigação e implementar ações mitigadoras, respectivamente. As ações baseiam-se na interpretação das características das zonas, tendo em vista a vegetação, o sombreamento, o albedo e a carga térmica. Conclui-se que, o mapeamento climático urbano oferece aos planejadores urbanos e às autoridades governamentais os dados essenciais para tomar decisões que levem em conta as condições climáticas. A metodologia proposta para Fortaleza e os resultados apresentados mostram que o mapeamento pode ser reproduzido e ajustado com facilidade para auxiliar na tomada de decisões em diferentes cidades.

Metamorfosis del Estado y retos del constitucionalismo contemporáneo
Authors: Martínez de Aragón López Lara , Nuño Gómez Laura
Published: December 2024

La obra analiza los acontecimientos históricos que se produjeron durante el largo periodo que abarca desde la caída del imperio romano hasta el Tratado de Westfalia que permitieron las condiciones de posibilidad para que confluyeran los elementos constitutivos del Estado moderno. Westfalia cambiaría profundamente el sistema de relaciones internacionales y consolidaría, definitivamente, la soberanía nacional o territorial. La metamorfosis posterior del estado y del modelo económico se acompañó de cambios sociales y productivos que acentuarían las desigualdades sociales poniendo en riesgo la propia supervivencia de la estabilidad política y económica del estado demoliberal. En este contexto, tras la debacle de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, el estado social emergió como una posible contención del conflicto capital-trabajo, buscando atenuar las tensiones sociales derivadas del modelo previo, aunque sin alterar sustancialmente sus elementos fundacionales.

Sin embargo, durante el último tercio del siglo XX se inició una expansión del neoliberalismo, no sólo como modelo productivo sino como nueva forma de racionalidad. Una globalización económica que ha ido reduciendo, paulatinamente, las limitaciones fronterizas para la circulación de capitales, pero no para la de seres humanos. El texto analiza cómo, el desplazamiento de lo estatal a lo global, del derecho público al privado y la consecuente pérdida de autonomía de la soberanía estatal está provocando una transformación en la configuración del estado y de las relaciones supraestatales de carácter postwestfalista que debilita, no sólo el orden político internacional construido tras la Segunda Guerra mundial, sino la soberanía constitutiva del estado moderno. Así, la falta de regulación y la opacidad de las grandes corporaciones empresariales y/o digitales, las propuestas que abanderan la vuelta a un modelo estatal promotor de la reducción del papel las instituciones públicas estatales como proveedoras de bienestar, la pérdida de fuerza normativa de los textos constitucionales y, en suma, la puesta en cuestión del constitucionalismo del sujeto plantean relevantes desafíos para el estado social y para la igualdad como ideal regulativo o principio ético de convivencia.

Authors: Paramita Dina , Putera Try Buana Tunggal
Published: December 2024

Background: Primary tumor are rarely found in pregnancy. Treatment for intracranial tumors in pregnant woman is a challenge for anesthesiologists, obstetricians and neurosurgeons. A large size cerebellopontine angle (CPA) tumor can suppress the brain stem structure and cause death if not treated immediately. This makes the way we treat patients, when the delivery time and the surgical intervention we choose to be quite difficult.Case: A 23 years-old female patient using general anesthesia (GA) to accommodate profunda trans-peritoneal cesarean section (SCTP) in a 36 weeks pregnancy age, G1P0A0, ASA IIIE with CPA tumor and oligohydramnions.Disscussion: Brain tumor usually grow rapidly during pregnancy due to fluid retention, increased blood volume, and hormonal changes. There is no specific guidelines that explain the treatment of intracranial tumor in pregnancy. This patient suffers from CPA tumor and oligohydramnions so SCTP is required. We use GA for SCTP because it is safe for patients with intracranial tumor.Conclusion: Female G1P0A0, 23 years old, 36 weeks pregnancy age with CPA tumor was consulted by Obstetricians to Anesthesiologists to do SCTP with GA.

Authors: Ansari Aulia Kamal , Lubis Andriamuri Primaputra , Nadeak Rommy Fransiscus
Published: December 2024

Background: Enteral nutrition is recommended within 24 to 48 hours after intensive care unit (ICU) admission when resuscitation and hemodynamic stability have been achieved. This study aims to determine the tolerability of enteral nutrition in septic shock patients in the ICU. Objective: To determine the tolerability of enteral nutrition in septic shock patients in the ICU of RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan.Methods: This study is a retrospective observational study, which was conducted in the ICU of the RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan by taking patient data from January to December 2022. The samples were septic shock patients who were admitted to the ICU using mechanical ventilation and vasopressors with a length of treatment of more than 48 hours. Data was collected on the time required for enteral nutrition administration, as well as assessing patient tolerability (presence of vomiting, residuals, and incidence of ileus). Other assessments included length of stay and mortality rate.Result: This study consisted of 47 samples, with 23 male (48.9%) and 24 female (51.1%) samples. Based on the underlying disease, 40.4% of the samples were diagnosed with pneumonia. In the tolerability of enteral nutrition, 83% of the samples were tolerant of early enteral nutrition, but with a high mortality rate of 89.4%. The initiation time of enteral nutrition in patients was 4.94 ± 1.79 hours (p=0.001). The average hospital stay for sepsis patients was 7.30 ± 6.55 days (p=0.001).Conclusion: Most sepsis and septic shock patients in the ICU are tolerant of early enteral nutrition <24 hours, but it does not reduce mortality.

Authors: Ahmad Bahtiar , Rehatta Nancy Margarita
Published: December 2024

Background: Snakebites prevalent globally, pose a severe threat, especially in resource-limited regions. The impact is substantial, affecting millions annually, with a significant number of fatalities.Case: A 37-year-old man experienced deterioration leading to cardiac arrest after being bitten by a Naja Kaouthia snake. Adequate management in the intensive care unit (ICU), including antivenom administration, restored the patient's condition to return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).Discussion: Snake venom causes various symptoms, from tissue damage to breathing and heart issues. Treating with antivenom, specifically from horses, can neutralize the venom's effects, as shown in studies. This treatment is effective for Naja Kaouthia bite.Conclusion: Quick treatment with antivenom partially neutralized the venom, showing how important antivenom is for treating snakebites.
Prevention and Management of Stress Ulcers in Critically ill Patients
Authors: Zulfakhri Zulfakhri , Jufan Akhmad Yun , Wisudarti Calcarina Fitriani Retno
Published: December 2024

Stress ulcers or stress related mucosal damage (SRMD) is a term defining inflammation, erosion, and ulceration in the upper gastrointestinal tract complicating patients with critical illness. Stress ulcers occur because of imbalance between the aggressive factors in stomach (gastric acid, pepsin, and bile salt) and the defensive factors (mucous, bicarbonate, microcirculation, epithelial layer, and prostaglandin). The most common clinical feature of stress ulcers is upper gastrointestinal tract bleeding in which the incidence rate is 2.6% in critically ill patients. Stress ulcers commonly happen after a gastrointestinal mucosal break in 75–100% of intensive care unit (ICU) patients in the first 24 hours of admission. The classification of stress ulcers includes asymptomatic stress ulcers, stress ulcers with occult and overt bleeding, and stress ulcers with clinically significant gastrointestinal bleeding. The diagnosis of stress ulcers can be made by assumption only and do not need an endoscopy. Some cases of stress ulcers that need an endoscopy are patients with overt and clinically significant gastrointestinal bleeding stress ulcers. Thus, the treatment of stress ulcers is similar to upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Stress ulcers can be prevented by administering stress ulcers prophylaxis such as histamine H2 receptor antagonist, proton pump inhibitor, cytoprotective agent (sucralfate), and usage of enteral feeding method.
Literature Review: Palliative Care in Intensive Care Units
Authors: Akhsaniati Novi Dwi , Adiyanto Bowo
Published: December 2024

Palliative care is defined as care with an approach that improves the quality of life of patients and their families in dealing with problems associated with life-threatening illnesses. As many as 75% of patients treated in the intensive care unit experience unpleasant symptoms. Various studies have shown that palliative care can reduce symptoms caused by invasive procedures in intensive care units and can provide end-of-life care. Thus, assisting patients proactively, decision-making with families, prospects for continued care planning and possible scenarios for end-of-life decisions are essential in intensive care units (ICUs). The integration of palliative care is an important part of comprehensive critical patient care. Critical care providers are often asked to provide pain relief to critically ill patients, hold family meetings to clarify the goals of care, deliver bad news, or provide end-of-life care and care for critically ill patients while providing support to their loved ones. Most ICU patients who are unable to make decisions rely on their families or carers for clinical decision making. Decision making for cardiopulmonary resuscitation, cessation of life-sustaining treatment (LST), and provision of artificial nutrition and hydration should be based on the patient's willingness to discontinue LST, with the involvement of family members and the multidisciplinary team, ensuring that decisions are aligned with the patient's values and goals. The application of palliative care in ICU care can relieve symptoms experienced by patients and can reduce unnecessary invasive procedures. In its application, decision making in palliative care must be based on ethical principles and involve the patient's family, and the decisions made must also be in line with the wishes and values of the patient. The application of palliative care focuses on good symptom management to reduce patient suffering.

Berbagai program telah dikembangkan untuk mengatasi permasalahan ini, seperti pemberian bantuan makanan dan suplemen untuk perbaikan gizi, serta penyuluhan dan penggalakan vaksinasi balita. Sudah cukup banyak juga penelitian mengenai stunting, tetapi belum banyak penelitian yang meneliti permasalahan stunting dari sisi keruangan terutama yang melihat keterkaitan stunting dengan aksesibilitas pangan baik dari sisi geografis maupun ekonomi. Sudah cukup banyak riset dalam bidang ilmu perencanaan wilayah dan kota yang meneliti mengenai keterkaitan status gizi masyarakat (seperti obesitas atau malnutrisi) dengan aksesibilitas terhadap makanan sehat dan bergizi. Namun, penelitian serupa belum diaplikasikan pada konteks permasalahan stunting di Indonesia. Oleh karena itu, tujuan utama dari artikel ini adalah untuk memformulasikan sebuah kerangka koseptual Food Environment (FE) yang dapat digunakan para perencana wilayah dan kota untuk menganalisis permasalahan stunting di Indonesia. Kerangka konseptual merupakan hasil sintesis dari literatur terdahulu mengenai konsep food environment dan disesuaikan dengan konteks di Indonesia. Berdasarkan hasil sintesis literatur, dirumuskan sebuah kerangka konseptual FE yang dapat digunakan sebagai dasar analisis spasial terhadap stunting. Dalam kerangka konseptual ini FE ditempatkan sebagai bagian dari sistem pangan keluarga dan individu. Namun, terdapat lima tantangan utama bagi penerapan kerangka konseptual FE yaitu ketersediaan dataset sumber pangan yang akurat, kategorisasi outlet pangan yang lebih spesifik, bagaimana mengakomodir keragaman jenis outlet pangan, bagaimana menganalisis dampak kesehatan dari keberadaan beragam outlet pangan secara simultan, dan penerjemahan aksesibilitas pangan.

The present study investigated the phytochemical constituents and antimicrobial effects of aqueous methanolic extract of Haloxylon salicornicum against some phytopathogenic bacterial and fungal strains. The selected bacterial strains were Pectobacterium carotovorum, Pectobacterium atrosepticum, Ralstonia solanacearum, and Streptomyces scabiei, while fungal strains were Fusarium oxysporum, Botrytis cinerea, and Rhizoctonia solani. The extract demonstrated significant efficacy against P. atrosepticum and P. carotovorum at a concentration of 1,000 µg/mL, resulting in inhibition zones measuring 12.3 and 11 mm, respectively. Furthermore, the extract demonstrated considerable effectiveness against fungal strains, achieving an impressive fungal growth suppression rate of 68.8% against R. solani at a concentration of 5,000 µg/mL. The high-performance liquid chromatography analysis identified nine notable phenolic compounds and six common flavonoid compounds in the extract. The identified phenolic compounds in the highest quantities were gallic acid (6427.5 µg/g), vanillin (1145.4 µg/g), chlorogenic acid (498.1 µg/g), and syringic acid (322.5 µg/g). Apigenin (1155.9 µg/g), daidzein (460.9 µg/g), quercetin (382.7 µg/g), and naringenin (160.4 µg/g) exhibited the most significant concentrations of flavonoid compounds. Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis revealed that n-hexadecanoic acid (53.7%), 9-octadecenoic acid (26.9%), 9,12-octadecadienoic acid (Z,Z) (8.67%), palmitic acid, and TMS derivative (4.36%) were the predominant compounds in the extract. Consequently, the H. salicornicum aqueous methanolic extract could be used for the first time as an environmentally safe antimicrobial pesticide agent against plant pathogens to reduce the excessive use of chemical pesticides.
Mediated parent networks as communicative figurations: practical sense and communicative practices among parents in four European countries
Authors: Trültzsch-Wijnen Christine W. , Chimirri Niklas A. , Das Ranjana , Jorge Ana
Published: December 2024

This paper investigates the diversity of mediated parent networks from the perspective of communicative figurations, by focussing on what kinds of networks can be identified (RQ1) and what expectations parents hold towards these networks (RQ2). It draws upon a qualitative, exploratory study conducted in Austria, Denmark, Portugal and the UK, with interviews conducted with parents across 16 families in 2021. Different kinds of parent networks are described in terms of size, perceived publicness, frames of relevance, actors involved, communicative practices, and media ensembles. Our analysis of parents’ expectations shows that disappointment seems to be closely connected to practical sense, social barriers and exclusion.
Modification of dolomitization on reservoir spaces in reef–shoal complex: A case study of Permian Changxing Formation, Sichuan Basin, SW China

Published: December 2024

The porosity of the reef–shoal complex increases with the increase of dolomite content, and it is worth investigating whether dolomitization leads to the formation of new pores or maintains the original porosity. The reef–shoal complex of the Permian Changxing Formation in the Sichuan Basin is selected to reveal the modification effect of dolomitization on the reef–shoal complex. As important reservoirs of hydrocarbons and carbon dioxide, reef–shoal complexes are composed of grainstone and framestone on both sides of the Kaijiang-Liangping Trough during the Late Permian. The difference in the development degree of sparry calcite cement determines whether the framestone on both sides of the Trough undergoes dolomitization or not. When the Mg2+ supply is insufficient, the dolomitization fluid prioritizes the replacement of the lime mud matrix. When the Mg2+ supply is sufficient, the reef-building organisms and bioclastic grains are completely replaced by dolomite. Statistical results show that when the dolomite content increases from 0 to 40%, there is no significant change in porosity. When dolomite content increases from 40 to 60%, the porosity gradually increases slightly. When dolomite content exceeds 60% and continues to increase, the porosity increases sharply. For reef–shoal complex reservoirs, dolomitization did not lead to the formation of new pores, but effectively preserved primary intergranular pores and freshwater leaching-induced pores. The porosity increases with the increase of dolomite content, partly due to pore preservation and partly due to the more effective anticompaction (and pressure solution) effect of dolomite compared to calcite, reflecting the overall effect of dolomite pore preservation. Although early freshwater leaching played a positive role in the formation of dolomite reservoirs, the preservation effect of dolomite pores contributes more to the current porosity and permeability of reservoirs, resulting in the highest quality reservoirs of reef–shoal complexes often developing at a certain distance below the exposed surface, and the best reservoir is dolomite in the upper part of the reef–shoal complexes, rather than dolomite interval located at the top.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are key factors in cellular damage and disease development. Nanoparticles (Nps) have demonstrated significant potential in medicine due to their unique properties, encapsulation of bioactive compounds within Np enhances their stability and efficacy. Ocimum basilicum var. purpurascens (OBP) is a plant characterized by its richness in bioactive antioxidant compounds. This investigation focused on encapsulating an OBP extract (OBPE) within zein nanoparticles (NpZ) and evaluating the preservation of its bioactivity and antioxidant potential. The encapsulation process successfully maintained bioactivity and efficiently extracted bioactive compounds. Comprehensive physicochemical characterization of OBPE-loaded NpZ was performed, including FTIR, DLS, ζ-potential, SEM microscopy, and UV-Vis spectroscopy. Antioxidant activity was evaluated using DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP assays, revealing high antioxidant capacity in OBPE-loaded NpZ. Results revealed the influence of zein concentration on Np characteristics, such as size, charge, and morphology. The extraction method proved effective in preserving bioactive compounds from OBP. Successful OBPE encapsulation within the zein matrix demonstrated NpZ potential as an effective carrier for bioactive compounds. This study highlights the effective extraction and encapsulation of OBPE, emphasizing the importance of NpZ in bioactive antioxidant delivery. Further research on therapeutic efficacy and targeted delivery of OBPE-loaded NpZ in biological models is warranted.
Who Is Interested (or Not) in Church-Administered Lifecycle Rituals?
Authors: Roleder Felix
Published: December 2024

This empirical-quantitative study systematically examines lifecycle ritual choices, including the reluctance to celebrate the rituals offered by the church. Observations of the reasons for ritual choices in the German Protestant context illustrate important shifts in ritual culture. These are also occurring in other contexts around the world marked by religious individualization and cultural singularization. This study finds that religious fit, family constellation and biography, conventionality, and institutional attachment determine affinity to church lifecycle rituals. Thus, the interest in infant baptism, church wedding, and funeral can be conceptualized as a four-dimensional value-rational action. In addition, personal contact with pastors and other church personnel builds trust and creates opportunities for ritual requests. The study thus deepens our understanding of contemporary decision-making processes in a changing ritual culture. The empirical findings offer implications for professionals to adapt their ritual practices in both ritual design and marketing.
Preaching and Generative AI: A Perspective from Early 2024
Authors: Hussey Ian
Published: December 2024

With growing use of generative AI in sermon preparation this article develops the conversation regarding its usage. It begins by discussing some of the ethical issues related to generative AI in preaching. It then suggests that the missiological practice of contextualization also serves as a theological framework for preaching which generates a hermeneutic to locate the ethical and skillful use of AI within the sermon preparation process. It then moves to explore some skills in utilizing generative AI that can be used in sermon preparation in a way that is consistent with this framework.
