A note on the Kleinewillinghöfer types of 4-dimensional Laguerre planes
Authors: Steinke Günter F.
Published: November 2023

Kleinewillinghöfer classified in 1979 automorphism groups of Laguerre planes with respect to linearly transitive subgroups of central automorphisms and obtained a multitude of types. All feasible Kleinewillinghöfer types of 2-dimensional Laguerre planes were completely determined in 2021. In this paper we investigate the Kleinewillinghöfer types of 4-dimensional Laguerre planes with respect to the automorphism groups of these planes and show that of the 49 types Kleinewillinghöfer described, only twelve are feasible in 4-dimensional Laguerre planes. Examples of four of these type are provided.
Sixteen-dimensional compact translation planes with automorphism groups of dimension at least 35
Authors: Löwe Harald
Published: November 2023

The present paper investigates 16-dimensional compact translation planes with automorphism groups of dimension d between 35 and 37; planes with groups of higher dimensions have been classified by Hähl. We obtain a complete classification for d = 37 (up to isomorphisms). It turns out that these planes have Lenz type V and are already described in a recent paper of Hähl and Meyer [10]. Moreover, we give a partial classification for d = 35 and d = 36. The latter case will be completely finished in a forthcoming paper [16] of the author, while the case where d = 35 is completed except for groups whose maximal compact subgroups are 9-dimensional.

Dual-biprism-based single-camera high-speed 3D-digital image correlation for deformation measurement on sandwich structures under low velocity impact
Authors: Zhang Weiling , Xu Mengqiao , Yuan Tianyu , Li Wenjing , Dai Xiangjun , Zhang Zhongwei , Yun Hai , Wang Yanxia
Published: November 2023

Herein, a single-camera stereo digital image correlation (DIC) method is developed for dynamic deformation measurement, and a dual-biprism high-speed stereo camera system is proposed to capture surface images. Then, full-field displacement and strain distributions are obtained after correlation and differential calculation using the stereo-DIC algorithm. After a typical experiment is performed to verify the accuracy of the proposed system, full-field displacement and strain distributions of sandwich panels subjected to low-velocity impacts are determined. These results show that the proposed system is an efficient and convenient tool for dynamic deformation measurement.
Breaking Bad: A Disaggregated Analysis of Inflation Inertia
Authors: Cevik Serhan
Published: November 2023

The post-pandemic rise in consumer prices across the world has renewed interest in inflation dynamics after decades of global disinflation. This paper contributes to the literature by providing a granular investigation of inflation persistence at the city level in Lithuania during the period 2000–2021, as well as a comparison of inflation persistence at the country level vis-à-vis the eurozone over the same period. Using disaggregate monthly data on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) collected in five major cities, the empirical analysis finds a mixed and ambiguous picture of inflation persistence across all CPI subcomponents. While there are mixed results for persistence of the headline inflation, most consumption categories exhibit significant persistence. As a result, shocks may not remain transitory and instead have persistent effects that could spillover across subcomponents depending on the size of the shock.

An Effective Solution for Drug Discovery Based on the Tangram Meta-Heuristic and Compound Filtering
Authors: Cruz Nicolás C. , Puertas-Martín Savíns , Redondo Juana L. , Ortigosa Pilar M.
Published: November 2023

Ligand-Based Virtual Screening accelerates and cheapens the design of new drugs. However, it needs efficient optimizers because of the size of compound databases. This work proposes a new method called Tangram CW. The proposal also encloses a knowledge-based filter of compounds. Tangram CW achieves comparable results to the state-of-the-art tools OptiPharm and 2L-GO-Pharm using about a tenth of their computational budget without filtering. Activating it discards more than two thirds of the database while keeping the desired compounds. Thus, it is possible to consider molecular flexibility despite increasing the options. The implemented software package is public.
Logarithm of multivector in real 3D Clifford algebras
Authors: Acus Artūras , Dargys Adolfas
Published: November 2023

Closed form expressions for a logarithm of general multivector (MV) in basis-free form in real geometric algebras (GAs) Clp,q are presented for all n = p + q = 3. In contrast to logarithm of complex numbers (isomorphic to Cl0,1), 3D logarithmic functions, due to appearance of two double angle arc tangent functions, allow to include two sets of sheets characterized by discrete coefficients. Formulas for generic and special cases of individual blades and their combinations are provided.
Teorias sociais e Serviço Social
Authors: Tabaranã Silva Olga Myrla
Published: November 2023

O objetivo deste artigo é refletir sobre os processos de incorporação teórica na conjuntura profissional do Serviço Social e suas consequências na formação e atuação contemporâneas. Bem como, refletir estratégias de valorização da intenção de ruptura diante da tradição conservadora em que a profissão foi gestada. Para isso, utilizamos referencial bibliográfico e material empírico de dados coletados na última pesquisa do Grupo de Estudos em Serviço Social, Formação Profissional e Política Social (GEPSS/UFPA), do qual fazemos parte. As falas que ilustram nossa análise advêm de entrevistas semiestruturadas com profissionais formados sob a égide das novas Diretrizes Curriculares na Universidade Federal do Pará e em universidades particulares presenciais e a distância. Concluímos este artigo com a definição de que o  eoconservadorismo ou a pós-modernidade tem influências significativas em nossa formação, mas que não ultrapassam a necessidade de conhecimento e valorização da intenção de ruptura. Isso indica a urgência em negritar este debate antagônico no âmbito profissional para fortalecer a profissão que, historicamente, se posiciona de forma crítica.
Dharmottara's Pramāṇaviniścayaṭīkā
Authors: Hugon Pascale
Published: November 2023

This new volume in the STTAR series follows up the publication of the critical edition of the third chapter of Dharmakīrti’s "Pramāṇaviniścaya" (on argumentation in philosophical debate), which was published in the same series as volume 8 (2011). The current volume presents a diplomatic edition of the Sanskrit text of the corresponding chapter in the commentary by Dharmottara (8th c.), the "Pramāṇaviniścayaṭīkā", based on a Photostat copy of an incomplete palm-leaf manuscript in Proto Bengālī script. The edition is preceded by an introduction that includes a manuscript description, remarks on the Tibetan translation, a structural analysis with references to the "Pramāṇaviniścaya" edition, and indices of names of persons, texts and schools as found in the third chapter of the "Pramāṇaviniścayaṭīkā".
Analysis of Sayyid Qutb's Tafsir on the Concept of Istiṭā'ah in Hajj
Authors: Fuad Asep
Published: November 2023

One of the conditions for the obligation to perform the pilgrimage to the Baitullah is only for those who can afford it (istiṭā'ah). The meaning of istiṭā'ah includes several things, including; Al-istiṭā'ah al-māliyah, second, al-istiṭā'ah al-badāniyah, and third, al-istiṭā'ahal-amniyyah. Studying istiṭā'ah in Tafsir Qur'ān and Islamic fiqh is significant because it determines how much a person is obliged to carry out God's commands. Regarding the interpretation and views of some scholars and mufasir figures regarding the concept of istaṭā'ah, if it is related to the situations and conditions that occurred in the pilgrims in Indonesia, then several obstacles or opportunities hinder their intention to carry out the pilgrimage and umrah. Departing from these problems, the author seeks to explore the concept of istiṭā'ah in the pilgrimage in the Qur'an using the interpretation of Fi Zhilalil Qur'ān. The research method used in this article is a descriptive analysis based on library research. The results of this study are that Istiṭā'ah is a condition in which a person has financial provisions, masters the knowledge of Hajj rituals, has a sincere heart, is patient, grateful, trusts and humbles', and is mentally and physically healthy.
The moderating role of supervisor support in the effect of perceived overqualification on workplace loneliness
Authors: Üstün Ferda , Üstün Emre
Published: November 2023

The purpose of this research was to determine whether supervisor support (SS) plays a moderating role in the perception of overqualification (POQ) on workplace loneliness (WL) among music teachers in Turkey. The research was based on the assumption that loneliness, which is a negative emotional state and expresses employees’ inability to establish a healthy relationship within the organisation, may arise from music teachers’ perceived overqualification and can be shaped with the support of this relationship. With this study we discovered that perceived overqualification has a definite and significant impact on WL. It was also discovered that supervisor support moderated the relationship between perceived overqualification and WL. Consequently, although music teachers felt overqualified, they did not feel lonely at work if their supervisor provided strong support.

Authors: Carranza Esteban Renzo Felipe , Mamani-Benito Oscar , Turpo Chaparro Josué Edison , Apaza Romero Abel , Castillo-Blanco Ronald W.
Published: November 2023

The repercussions of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) have generated effects on the working modality of teachers, in whom it is convenient to study variables associated with well-being. The objective with this research was to determine whether social support at work and workload predict satisfaction with life in a sample of Peruvian teachers. The methodology was a predictive and cross-sectional study, carried out on 584 Peruvian teachers of both genders selected in a non-probabilistic way; to whom the social support scale at work, the workload scale and the life satisfaction scale were applied. The survey was carried out virtually, and descriptive statistics, Pearson’s correlation coefficient and structural equation modelling (SEM) were conducted to examine the hypothetical model. In the analysis of the proposed model, an adequate fit was obtained, 2 (116) = 435.5, p < .001, CFI = .963, RMSEA = .069, SRMR = .059. Thus, H1 and H2 were confirmed on the positive effect of social support at work,  = .27, p < .001, and the negative effect of workload,  = .28, p < .001 in satisfaction with life. Likewise, the t values of the beta regression coefficients of the predictor variables were highly significant (p < 0.01). It was concluded that social support at work and an adequate workload predict a better level of satisfaction with life in a sample of Peruvian teachers.
A DISCRETE METHOD TO SOLVE THE FOUR COLOR THEOREM
Authors: Jansen José Ulisses
Published: November 2023

The Four-Color Theorem originated from the attempt to solve the problem of painting MAPS over a plane or spherical surface. Over a century and a half, this problem underwent various abstractions until it was resolved in 1976. The proposed solution, which is disruptive, computationally calculates the number of possible states for a representation of a flat map. Although it is resolved, the lack of a formal proof for this problem causes some discomfort. Therefore, a solution that uses more traditional techniques and is easily understandable is needed. In a previous article, a solution based on equalities and inequalities between boundaries was presented. Now in this article, a generic spheroidal MAP is subjected to various one-to-one relationships until a generator of all possible MAPS on a two-dimensional surface partitioned into n2 cells are found. Four-Colors are proved to be necessary and sufficient to paint a two dimensional MAP. It is explained at the end of the article that the imposition of a fifth color as a necessary condition implies a contradiction.
Inclusão socioespacial de pessoas com deficiência no programa “minha casa minha vida”: dicotomias entre o discurso político e a ação efetiva
Authors: Lombardi Anna Paula , Löwen Sahr Cicilian Luiza
Published: November 2023

Objetivo. Avaliar se o programa de habitação “Minha Casa Minha Vida” (MCMV), desenvolvido pelo governo federal brasileiro na atualidade, vem proporcionando a inclusão socioespacial de Pessoas com Deficiência (PcD). Busca-se identificar se as transformações nos espaços internos de moradia, bem como na articulação dos conjuntos habitacionais à cidade, representam um rompimento com a histórica lógica de exclusão urbana do Estado, permitindo se avançar em direção a uma sociedade mais justa e inclusiva. Metodologia. A análise ocorre a partir de dados dos primeiros conjuntos do programa implantados na cidade de Ponta Grossa no Paraná. Foram realizadas entrevistas com os sujeitos de pesquisa, bem como efetuadas observações de campo. Resultados. As casas adaptadas atendem à satisfação individual das PcD e suas famílias, todavia, a mudança para os novos conjuntos os obrigam a deslocamentos de grande distancia para terem acesso ao comércio, educação, saúde e lazer. Conclusão. Não se confirma a ruptura na lógica do Estado, assiste-se apenas a uma mudança em seu discurso político.

Conclusión. Al tener en cuenta la relación entre lo político y los jóvenes, se evidencia como las casas de la cultura se han convertido en escenarios de reconstrucción de lo político para un sector de población joven vulnerable; asimismo, los jóvenes desarrollan nuevas vías para manifestar su inconformidad frente a diferentes situaciones sociales a través de la producción musical y estética.
Justicia social: más allá del desarrollo humano. Pistas para valorar el progreso social
Authors: Nova Laverde Mariluz
Published: November 2023

Objetivo. Realizar un ejercicio de teoría crítica, partiendo de la premisa de la alienación como fenómeno social contemporáneo; rastreando, en el campo de las ideas económicas, patologías de la razón por las cuales son veladas injusticias que merecen ser objeto de una resistencia pública radical. Poniendo en entredicho la viabilidad conceptual y práctica de una sociedad neoliberal se vigoriza el desafío intelectual de reivindicar la justicia como tejido social y forma preeminente del florecimiento humano. Metodología. Para ello se siguen los planteamientos metodológicos de la Escuela de Frankfurt y se adoptan los tres criterios de una teoría crítica social: descriptiva, crítica y práctica. Resultados y conclusiones. Se defiende una concepción política de justicia como reconocimiento y redistribución, la cual apunta a desmontar los dispositivos del individualismo posesivo y la racionalidad instrumental que promueven el olvido del otro y la idea restringida de justicia distributiva como justicia en el intercambio valorada bajo el criterio de óptimo de Pareto.

La exposición a partículas contaminantes ocurre durante todo el ciclo de vida (83.8%), afectando mayoritariamente al género femenino. Conclusiones. El uso exacerbado de leña como combustible tiene como elemento central el componente de ingreso, más allá de cualquier asociación a los saberes tradicionales. Subsidios directos a la población indígena afectada podrían jugar un papel determinante para garantizar una transición energética sostenida.
A novel chromogenic agent for colorimetric estimation of copper in water and pharmaceutical tablets
Authors: Fraihat S
Published: November 2023

The current study intends to develop a novel, simple and selective colorimetric method to identify the presence of copper on the basis of a newly-synthesized Schiff base prepared from the condensation of 1,3-phthalaldehyde with 2-aminophenol. The new chromogenic agent was studied using elemental analysis, IR, NMR, MS, and UV-VIS absorption. The new chelate produces a stable colored complex with Cu(II) ions with a 1:1 composition using the continuous variation method. The colored complex exhibited a strong absorption peak at 440 nm and this phenomenon empowers copper analysis to be conducted in natural water, and pharmaceutical solutions directly via the colorimetric method. The author analyzed and optimized all the factors that tend to influence the sensitivity of the method. Such factors include pH, time, the concentration of the ligand and temperature. The process, proposed in the study, was then evaluated in terms of precision, accuracy and selectivity. The study outcomes are as follows: linear dynamic range 0.8-22 ug mL-1; limit of quantitation 0.970 ug mL-1; and limit of detection 0.293 ug mL-1.
The Representation and Politicization of the Covid-19 Pandemic on the Front Pages of the Daily Newspapers of Russia, Italy, the United Kingdom, Spain, France, Portugal, Germany, and the United States
Authors: Tejedor Santiago , Tusa Fernanda , Cervi Laura , Portales Marta , Zabotina Margarita
Published: November 2023

The impact COVID-19 has demanded an additional effort from the media to report a virus of global reach. During the lockdown, there has been an increase in information consumption derived from the interest and concern of citizens to know the characteristics, development, and threats of the coronavirus. Although social networks have ranked first among the cyberspace platforms most consulted by citizens, different studies indicate that citizens consider newspapers and magazines to have ‘good intentions’ compared to the ‘worst intentions’ of cyber-media and websites. Based on this, the research focuses on the covers of the paper editions of the newspapers, conceived as a fundamental element that synthesizes and hierarchizes the content that each medium considers of greatest importance and that is connected to the digital version of each medium. This research presents a comparative study of the newspaper covers of eight countries in the world (Italy, United Kingdom, Spain, France, Portugal, United States, Russia, and Germany) to analyze the number of news items about the pandemic, the type of text, the typology of information sources, the characters, the use of color, the inclusion and the focus of the photographs or the location on the page, among other parameters. The study analyzes 288 front pages of 16 daily newspapers (2 per country) in the world, collecting 1,478 news items that include 710 pieces of news, and 94,592 pieces of evidence using a mixed method of direct observation and hemerographic analysis. As a result, the few mentions of affected people and health personnel in front page information is evident, as is the predominance of news journalistic genres (brief and news, especially), and the political figures as the most represented actors shows a high degree of politicization of the global crisis. Finally, it is observed that the visual frames in the analyzed newspapers tend to promote humanization through emotional representation.
The Growth of Organized Violence Structures and the Types of Control Over Them
Authors: Rozov Nikolay
Published: November 2023

Macro-historical changes in the practices and structures of organized violence have their own regularities that require theoretical analysis. It is shown that the steady growth and development of these structures are determined by the main trends of social evolution such as demographic growth, the expansion and complication of polities, and the development of technologies and weapons. The internal mechanisms of both the cyclicality and the direction and irreversibility of these changes are considered. The practices of organized violence have changed considerably, and many of those unacceptable today were once common, socially approved, and even obligatory. Hypothetical principles have been formulated for the emergence, spread, and termination of such practices, which are always connected with the nature and outcome of political struggle, as well as with the change of worldviews consisting of primarily moral, social and political values and corresponding normative principles. The inevitable costs of the growth of violence structures are associated primarily with the possibility of their leaders gaining political subjectivity and claims to power, which is fraught with conspiracies, revolts, and similar phenomena that undermine social and political stability. These costs generate concerns of the rulers and elites to control the violence structures. Three basic forms of such control have been described as “ideal types”, those of patrimonial-charismatic control based on emotional commitment to the ruler, conflict-repressive control with divide-and-conquer strategies, and bureaucratic control involving subordination to formal rules. The last type includes two versions, with a reliance on the principle of power and on the principle of law. The social and mental foundations that support the rule of law in institutions and organizations of state violence are examined.

The article analyzes the recently-published third part of Olga Zhukova’s trilogy devoted to Russian culture, Russian philosophy, and the philosophy of Russian culture. The article’s author suggests that this book, as well as previous parts of the trilogy, contains extensive, largely unknown material about the studied area. Besides the richness of the factual material, the advantage of the book is that it encourages a reader’s interest in the considered stories; at the same time, it provokes an internal polemic with Zhukova, produces the desire to reflect on the various statements made, and, probably, even enters the discussion with the author. The cornerstone of Zhukova’s concept is the thesis about the fundamental conditionality of Russian culture and Russian philosophy on Eastern Christianity. According to this concept, there is a direct conditionality in some cases, while an indirect conditionality appears through the dialectical contradiction in some others. The article’s author does not find this thesis to be ultimately correct. Another separate object of the article’s discussion is the reviewed book’s polygraphic features.
Disentangling perceptions of social support and social capital as social determinants of mental health: COVID-19 personal networks of immigrants and non-migrants in Portugal
Authors: Nascimento Paulo , Roberto Magda Sofia , Santos Ana Sofia
Published: November 2023

Social network changes may occur during disruptive events (e.g., COVID-19), especially with immigrants who need to rebuild networks, undermining their mental health. Study 1 (N =18) investigates immigrants' perceived changes before and during the pandemic in their networks, mental health, social support and social capital. Study 2 (N =53) examines the same in a sample of non-migrants. Convenience samples were collected online between July and November 2020, addressing participants' perceived health networks and mental health through name generators (alters’ names), name interpreters (attributes), position generator (social capital), and the Mental Health Inventory-5. E-net software assessed the network's efficiency and homophily. Study 1 results revealed immigrants reduced their mental health, and network changes by decreasing social support, efficiency and social capital. In study 2, non-migrant network changes were small, not compromising their efficiency and social capital. Contributions suggest the importance of health crisis management with actions to support migrant social networks.
Separate Issues of Implementation of Parallel Imports Regime and Related Problems of Intellectual Property Protection in Russia under Sanctions
Authors: Shakhnazarov B. A.
Published: November 2023

It is already possible to conduct a comprehensive assessment of parallel imports introduction into the Russian legislation, which aims at providing Russian consumers with goods that are no longer available on the national market due to the sanctions against the Russian Federation adopted in 2022 and a number of companies suspending their activities in the Russian Federation. Exhaustion of intellectual property rights has been known in the world for quite a long time as a tool aimed at ensuring a balance of interests of copyright holders, consumers and importers, as well as a tool for ensuring international competition. In a particular state, one or another regime of exhaustion is applied taking into account the economic, political foundations of the functioning of the state economy, legal and evolutionary prerequisites. In this context, the paper presents a number of conclusions and proposals aimed at optimization of the parallel imports regime in Russia. The author considers some aspects of the customs, and substantiates the expediency of direct consolidation of international exhaustion of rights in the Russian legislation and possible development trajectories of the «list» approach to parallel imports. General approaches to the protection of intellectual property under sanctions are formulated, as well as proposals for solving problems related to the use of copyright objects belonging to copyright holders who have suspended their activities in Russia following sanctions regimes. The formulated conclusions and proposals could be summarized and taken into account in the Strategy for the Development of Intellectual Property in Russia — a strategic document that is extremely necessary in order to systematize and optimize measures for the development of approaches to the protection and promotion of the creation of intellectual property in Russia.

Earthquake-induced landslides can record information about the seismic shaking that generated them. In this study, we present new mapping, Light Detection and Ranging-derived roughness dating, and analysis of over 1000 deep-seated landslides from the Puget Lowlands of Washington, U.S.A., to probe the landscape for past Seattle fault earthquake information. With this new landslide inventory, we observe spatial and temporal evidence of landsliding related to the last major earthquake on the Seattle fault ∼1100 yr before present. We find spatial clusters of landslides that correlate with ground motions from recent 3D kinematic models of Seattle fault earthquakes. We also find temporal patterns in the landslide inventory that suggest earthquake-driven increases in landsliding. We compare the spatial and temporal landslide data with scenario-based ground motion models and find stronger evidence of the last major Seattle fault earthquake from this combined analysis than from spatial or temporal patterns alone. We also compare the landslide inventory with ground motions from different Seattle fault earthquake scenarios to determine the ground motion distributions that are most consistent with the landslide record. We find that earthquake scenarios that best match the clustering of ∼1100-year-old landslides produce the strongest shaking within a band that stretches from west to east across central Seattle as well as along the bluffs bordering the broader Puget Sound. Finally, we identify other landslide clusters (at 4.6–4.2 ka, 4.0–3.8 ka, 2.8–2.6 ka, and 2.2–2.0 ka) in the inventory which let us infer potential ground motions that may correspond to older Seattle fault earthquakes. Our method, which combines hindcasting of the surface response to the last major Seattle fault earthquake, using a roughness-aged landslide inventory with forecasts of modeled ground shaking from 3D seismic scenarios, showcases a powerful new approach to gleaning paleoseismic information from landscapes.
Enhancement of Seismic Phase Identification Using Polarization Filtering and Array Analysis

Seismic arrays play a crucial role in identifying weak signals in the seismic wavefield based on their expected slowness and backazimuth values. However, their resolution power is limited when studying phases with similar horizontal slownesses and arrival times, such as receiver-side or source-side reverberations and converted phases. Therefore, we investigate the benefit of applying polarization filtering to three-component seismograms before stacking to remove undesired signals and increase the signal-to-noise ratio of the array. Customized polarization filters enable more sophisticated wavefield separation and robust phase identification on vespagrams. However, selecting the suitable polarization filter requires a balance between noise reduction and the preservation of desired signals. We find that degree-of-polarization filters generally excel in suppressing incoherent noise. On the other hand, some filters, for example, based solely on ellipticity, do not yield notable enhancements for body waves and may even produce adverse effects, specifically for phases that arrive late in the seismogram. We demonstrate these findings using data recorded by AlpArray and surrounding permanent stations.

El síndrome de Sweet es un tipo de dermatosis neutrofílica infrecuente, caracterizado por un cuadro febril agudo con aparición de lesiones en piel tipo pápulas y placas eritematosas y dolorosas, con neutrofilia periférica acompañante, que mejora con el uso de corticoides. Se presenta el caso de una paciente de 22 años, con vitíligo como enfermedad de base, que acude por un cuadro de 1 semana de evolución de sensación febril no graduada y aparición insidiosa de lesiones en piel foto expuesta. Se realizó estudios laboratoriales e histopatológicos llegando al diagnóstico de síndrome de Sweet. Con los resultados de los estudios paraclínicos se inició tratamiento con corticoides sistémicos y tópicos con excelente respuesta.
Correlación entre glucemia basal y alanina aminotransferasas en pacientes con y sin diabetes de un policlínico de Lima, Perú
Authors: Guevara Tirado Alberto
Published: November 2023

Introducción: la alanina aminotransferasa es un nexo importante en el metabolismo de aminoácidos y carbohidratos, asimismo es un marcador de inflamación hepática. Estudios previos mostraron la relación entre la diabetes mellitus y esta enzima bajo diferentes contextos clínicos. Objetivo: evaluar la correlación entre glucosa basal y alanina aminotransferasa tanto en pacientes con diabetes mellitus tipo 2 como sin ella. Metodología: estudio observacional, analítico y transversal realizado desde enero de 2021 a junio de 2022 con una población de 566 pacientes dividida en grupos con diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (n 224) y sin diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (n 342). Fueron incluidos los pacientes de edad igual o mayor a 18 años con y sin diabetes mellitus tipo 2. Se excluyó a pacientes con patologías múltiples y/o con diagnóstico de diabetes inferior a 6 meses. Se realizó el análisis inferencial con la prueba de correlación de Spearman y la prueba de normalidad de Kolmogorov-Smirnov. Los datos fueron procesados con el software SPSS statistics 25™. Resultados: la correlación entre glucosa y alanina aminotransferasa en sujetos sin diabetes fue 0,212 (p=0,003) y la correlación entre glucosa y alanina aminotransferasa en aquellos con diabetes fue -0,434 (p=0,015). Conclusiones: la alanina aminotransferasa se relaciona con mayor intensidad en pacientes con diabetes mellitus tipo 2 que en aquellos sin diabetes. La correlación moderada y negativa en sujetos con diabetes mellitus tipo 2 indicaría alteraciones en la interacción entre la alanina aminotransferasa y la glucosa en los que la hiperglucemia sostenida tendría un papel relevante, probablemente por un incremento en la actividad de transaminación.
