El tungsteno de César Vallejo como subversión de la cristiandad en América
Authors: Herrera Ruiz Juan Carlos
Published: November 2024

La narrativa y la poética de César Vallejo apelan con frecuencia a una simbología que evoca a los Evangelios como un recurso para la realización de una teología política que entiende al cristianismo como congregación social, pero también como una resistencia cultural y una forma poética de conocer y sentir los problemas de una época, la miseria, la opresión y el dolor humanos de cara a una redención. La novela social El tungsteno es un ejemplo de resignificación política del cristianismo mediante la reconstrucción profana de la historia sagrada, en la violencia política, en las condiciones materiales de la vida y la opresión bajo el influjo del capitalismo extractivista.
La fragilidad de los “civilizadores hilos de Morse”: los inicios del telégrafo en Colombia, 1865-1915
Authors: Pita Pico Roger
Published: November 2024

Con base en el marco de la historia de la comunicación, este artículo tiene por objeto relacionar y describir los factores que obstaculizaron el proceso de implementación del sistema telegráfico en Colombia durante sus primeras cinco décadas de funcionamiento: los efectos naturales, las fallas técnicas e imperfecciones en la instalación, los daños causados por los pobladores y los atentados sucedidos por cuenta de la situación de orden público y las presiones políticas. Todas estas interferencias requirieron de un inmenso despliegue administrativo, técnico y económico para realizar las continuas reparaciones, lo cual se constituyó en un verdadero desafío, y mucho más en un territorio como el colombiano caracterizado por una agreste y complicada geografía. Aun con todas las dificultades, fue continua la expansión de la red de líneas y oficinas telegráficas y notoria fue la contribución de la ágil transmisión de mensajes suministrada por esta infraestructura en las relaciones sociales, la economía y la cultura.

Economic Vulnerability and International Development Assistance: Aid Allocation in 2020–2022
Authors: Morozkina Alexandra
Published: November 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic and sanctions against Russia greatly influenced the global economy, including developing countries. The first part of this article explores the main macroeconomic trends in emerging economies, including the decline of
economic growth rates after the shocks of 2020–2022, dynamics of external debt, government deficit, unemployment, and
inflation.
The hugely increased financing needs of developing countries against the background of financial constraints requires
a fine adjustment of the development assistance allocation system, especially from multilateral agencies. The second part of
this article highlights the current situation in terms of usage of economic vulnerability as one of the criteria for allocation of
concessional finance. This includes the most relevant experience of the Caribbean Development Bank and its concessional
body, the Special Development Fund.
The absence of economic vulnerability as one of the criteria for aid allocation in most of the institutions increases
risks for the global economy as a number of vulnerable countries have an increasing financing gap. The third part of article
evaluates potential financing allocation based on economic vulnerability andbrings to a conclusion that most of the vulnerable developing countries are underfinanced by multilateral organizations.
Niveles de ansiedad competitiva experimentados por jugadores jóvenes de fútbol y diferencias por categoría

Published: November 2024

In children's football, the pressure to win has transformed the game into a bitter experience for many young athletes, which has led to a considerable increase in children dropping out of sporting activities. This pressure is often exerted by the athlete's environment, be it parents, coaches or the competitive environment that has been created in grassroots sports. Competitive anxiety can cause the athlete to perceive competition as threatening, triggering a series of reactions where anxiety plays a crucial role. In the present research, competitive anxiety was studied in two categories of football at an early age: the Infantil category and the Cadete category. There was a total of 124 participants in both categories. A cross-sectional descriptive design was used and the SAS-2 Competitive Anxiety Questionnaire was used as a measurement instrument. This instrument breaks down competitive anxiety into three subscales: somatic anxiety, worry and lack of concentration. The aim of the present study is to determine whether competitive anxiety varies according to sport category, specifically to determine the relationship between somatic anxiety and sport categories, between worry and sport categories and lack of concentration and sport categories. The results obtained in the study allow us to confirm that the hypothesis is not fulfilled and that therefore no significant differences have been found between both categories.
Masculinidad y migración: menores en medios digitales, construcción discursiva e impacto en la desigualdad social
Authors: Martínez-Salvador Isabel María , Ortíz-Amo Rocío , Muyor-Rodríguez Jesús
Published: November 2024

Los medios de comunicación desempeñan un papel importante en la construcción de imaginarios sociales sobre poblaciones específicas. Se ha realizado un análisis de contenido cualitativo, utilizando el método de comparación constante, con el objetivo de examinar las categorías emergentes en los marcos de las noticias publicadas. Los resultados muestran que los contenidos de las noticias se basan principalmente en manifestaciones de discurso de odio, racismo y estigmatización de grupos de jóvenes que emigran sin referentes familiares. Las soluciones de las que informa la prensa se asocian a la intervención política e institucional en detrimento de las acciones preventivas y comunitarias. Esto se interpreta como un signo de criminalización del colectivo, mayoritariamente masculino y migrante, lo que supone un riesgo para estos menores, ya que estas noticias generan rechazo social hacia ellos. Estas conclusiones abogan por reforzar en el futuro las intervenciones sociales en materia de sensibilización y concienciación, fundamentales para la convivencia intercultural y la igualdad social.
XR for Transformable and Interactive Design
Authors: Bustos-Lopez Gabriela , Aguirre-Villalobos Erwin Robert , Meingast Krissie
Published: November 2024

This article aims to show the applicability and evaluation of a teaching-learning method based on user experience (UX) design and extended reality (XR) in architectural studios. In the summer of 2023, the XR Assisted: Transformable and Interactive Design studio utilized the UX+XR teaching-learning method. During the studio, the emphasis was on designing a transformable and interactive architectural installation, with the UX as a center and XR, artificial intelligence, and inmotics as design and visualization tools. In the UX+XR method, the users were the students, and each student designed transformable architecture by applying UX strategies to their specific urban installation users. The UX+XR method had four phases. Each phase incorporated a cross-strategy UX+XR during the design process stages. Using UX+XR, the participants designed an architectural installation where the concepts of transformability, ephemerality, interactivity, flexibility, adaptability, versatility, and playfulness were present. Based on testing the six architectural installations designed during the studio using the UX+XR method, our data showed that XR enhanced the designer’s perception, constituted a new means of expression on an accurate scale, and is a highly immersive and interactive resource for communicating ideas and reinforcing visualization, simulation, stimulation, and interaction. XR is a powerful tool that, as used in the designed method, allows an elevated level of visual communication, understanding of spatial dimensions, and an effective multi-user collaborative strategy for evaluating the designed proposals.

Authors: Olesova Emilia A. , Ilyin Alexander A. , Arutyunov Sergey D. , Glazkova Elena V. , Popov Arsen A. , Iarilkina Svetlana P.
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND: Preventive treatment is essential in modern dentistry, resulting in increased attention to the causes and potential predictability of dental pathologies, including tooth cracks and fractures. Currently, there is a lack of comprehensive, detailed studies on this subject.
AIM: To assess the detectability of risk factors for tooth cracks and fractures (based on a survey of dentists).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A survey of 52 dentists of various specialties was performed using a special questionnaire on the incidence and causes of tooth cracks and fractures.
RESULTS: According to the survey of dentists, the incidence of confirmed tooth cracks and fractures was 6.7% and 4.4% for extracted and treated teeth, respectively. Maxillary premolar roots were the most common site (59.1%), with longitudinal cracks/fractures predominating (68.2%). Of all reported cracks and fractures, 15.6% were only detected during an X-ray or CT examination. Overall, 87.7% of cracks and fractures were detected in devitalized teeth, 79.3% in patients with unreplaced missing teeth, dental cavities, or restoration of more than 50% of the occlusal surface (76.3% and 49.3%, respectively), and 30.6% in patients with root wall thinning. At least 65.0% of tooth destruction cases occurred within 5 years of devitalization, filling, or replacement.
CONCLUSION: The study found that the main risk factors for tooth cracks and fractures (more than 10% of extracted and treated teeth) are devitalization and excessive load caused by incomplete dental restoration, as well as significant destruction of the crown, root wall thinning, and a long period following devitalization, filling, or replacement. More than half of all tooth cracks are longitudinal. Maxillary premolars are more prone to cracks and fractures. These factors can be used to predict long-term complications such as tooth cracks and fractures after dental tissue treatment.
Surgical treatment of patients with gastric cancer of different age groups

Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND: The only radical method of treating gastric malignancies is surgery. To date, a few studies have been published in the public domain aimed at a comparative study of the characteristics of the course of gastric cancer in young (less than 45 years old) and older patients. The features of disease progression in each of the described age groups remain unexplored.
AIM: To improve the results of surgical treatment of patients with gastric cancer of various age groups.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Study design: nonrandomized prospective study. The object of the study was radical surgical interventions performed for gastric cancer during the period from 2018 to 2021. In total, 477 patients with a verified diagnosis of gastric malignancy were operated on at the Volgograd Regional Clinical Oncological Dispensary (Russia).
RESULTS: Elderly and senile patients (over 60 years old) underwent 224 resection organ-saving operations (63%) and 132 gastrectomies (37%). In the group of resection surgical interventions, 89.3% of patients did not develop postoperative complications. In the group of gastrectomies, this figure was 81% (c=4.7; p=0.031). In the course of a multivariate analysis of identifying predictors of the development of a negative immediate treatment outcome in young and mature patients, it was established that two parameters statistically significantly increase the likelihood of developing grade III–V Clavien–Dindo complications: multivisceral resection when the tumor invades adjacent anatomical structures and male gender. Performing surgery using a minimally invasive approach statistically significantly reduces the likelihood of postoperative complications. The remaining three parameters that demonstrated significance only in univariate models were: a comorbidity index of more than 6points on the Charlson–Deyo scale, surgery duration of more than 180minutes, and complications of the tumor process before surgery.
CONCLUSION: Thus, our data demonstrate the advantage of organ-preserving resection interventions performed on elderly and senile patients for gastric cancer over gastrectomies in the form of a statistically significant reduction in the total number of postoperative complications, as well as “severe” complications (III–V degrees according to the Clavien–Dindo classification). In young and mature patients suffering from gastric cancer, the extent of surgical intervention does not affect the incidence of postoperative complications. In order to improve the immediate results of surgical treatment, surgery should be performed using a laparoscopic approach.
Is it possible to use colon stenting as part of the implementation of the early rehabilitation after surgery concept in the surgical treatment of patients with colon cancer complicated by obstructive intestinal obstruction? Review
Authors: Aliyev Saday A. , Aliyev Emil S.
Published: November 2024

There exist extensive literature data that demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the use of colon stenting in the surgical treatment of tumor colonic obstruction, as well as the potential prospect and successful implementation of the "Early rehabilitation after surgery" program in planned colorectal surgery. Based on this evidence, the authors made an attempt to substantiate the possibility and appropriateness of including the stenting technique in the "Early rehabilitation after surgery" program as a component of its implementation in the surgical treatment of colon cancer, complicated by intestinal obstruction. Due to the reduction of the intermediate stages of traditional multi-stage surgical treatment and the absence of colostomy and the associated need for further repeated surgery to eliminate colostomy and restore continuity of the colon, stenting contributes to a significant reduction in the total duration of hospitalization and rehabilitation of patients, as well as reducing the financial and economic costs of treatment. The disadvantages, advantages and complications of colon stenting in patients with colon cancer complicated by obstructive intestinal obstruction, taking into account surgical and oncological results according to the literature, are described. It has been shown that the two-stage tactics of surgical treatment with preliminary colon stenting at the first stage and performing simultaneous radial operations with primary restoration of colon continuity at the second stage allows achieving the best immediate and long–term results and improving the quality of life of patients. In the late stages of the tumor process and the presence of unresectable cancer, colon stenting can serve as the final palliative treatment method in inoperable patients. In the context of the oncological aspects of the problem, it is declared that colon stenting carries the risk of severe complications associated with tumor traumatization, contributing to the generalization of the malignant process due to an increase in the level of cancer-embryonic antigen and an increase in the number of circulating tumor cells in peripheral blood, significantly reducing the oncological survival of potentially operable patients with resectable cancer. It is shown that further prospective randomized studies and a multifactorial analysis of the results obtained are necessary to determine the place of colon stenting within the framework of the "Early rehabilitation after surgery" program in the surgical treatment of colon cancer complicated by obstructive intestinal obstruction.

Predicting Lg Blockage in the Middle East Using a Bayesian Lasso Logistic Regression Model
Authors: Li Duyi , Nandy Saikat , Hui Hongjun , Holan Scott H. , Sandvol Eric
Published: November 2024

The regional seismic phase Lg is an important tool for investigating bulk crustal property and discriminating seismic sources. In this study, we used Lg efficiency data from the Middle East to develop a Bayesian logistic regression model to predict the probabilities of Lg blockage. This approach provides us with a quantitative way to map the regions of Lg blockage as well as a method to reliably predict the likelihood of blockage. We observe blockage zones in the oceanic crust like the south Caspian Sea. We also observe high probabilities of Lg blockage in the continental orogenic belts, like the western Greater Caucasus, and moderate to high probabilities over most continental collisional boundaries. The high-probability patterns around the continental collision plate boundaries are dominated by long-distance Lg waves. The probability tomography model also suggests that the continental collisional processes would not necessarily block Lg but highly affect Lg propagation, especially for longer paths, due to crustal intrinsic attenuation (eastern Anatolia) or the scattering effect from changes in crustal waveguide (Zagros).

Autonomous vehicle technology has experienced a revolution due to the development of artificial intelligence, which incorporates complex models and algorithms. One of the most important developments in computer science and robotic intelligence is self-driving cars. Although several models have already been developed and are in use, everyone in this subject is certain that there is still a tonne of untapped potential. In order to perform more accurately and effectively than conventional models, convolutional neural networks are utilised in this project’s feature categorization. The image is first converted to grayscale by the algorithm, then it is divided into three layers. A sophisticated convolutional neural network that incorporates crucial data from traffic signs and images classifies them simultaneously into the right categories. The system’s effectiveness has been shown by the results. We categorise traffic signs using convolutional networks (ConvNets) as part of the German Traffic Sign Recognition Benchmark dataset (GTSRB). With biological inspiration, ConvNets are multi-stage topologies that automatically pick up the invariant characteristic hierarchy.. The capsule network’s most current accuracy on the German Traffic Sign Recognition Benchmark dataset was 98.44%.

Growth modulation with maxillary expansion appliances-A review
Authors: Magi Alina , Hussain M Arshad , Konda Prasad
Published: November 2024

Constricted maxillary arch is one of the most common problems faced by an Orthodontist while treating young as well as adult patients. Maxillary and mandibular expansion treatments have been used for more than a century to correct transverse deficiency. Transverse maxillary discrepancies are the most common. The narrowed upper arch is the most prevalent problem an orthodontist encounter while treating adolescent and adult patients. Maxillary expansion is a technique used to increase the upper arch's transverse dimension to apply forces to widen the upper arch. For young children, a narrow maxillary arch has to be corrected using orthopedic and orthodontic treatments. Various clinical manifestations associated with a transverse maxillary deficiency which include a narrow palate, crossbite mainly seen in posteriors(unilateral or bilateral), severe crowding in anterior teeth, and cone-shaped hypertrophy can be seen. Some frequently used therapies for constricted upper arch include slow maxillary expansion, rapid maxillary expansion, and surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion. Slow maxillary expansion requires light and constant force, whereas rapid maxillary expansion needs heavy force for activation. This review explains various method to expand maxilla non surgically.

Published: November 2024

: To evaluate width of buccal corridor space in patients with skeletal class I, class II and class III malocclusion and to find out whether the skeletal malocclusion in sagittal plane can affect the width of buccal corridor space.

: Smile analysis has been treated as a separate entity from cephalometrics and cast analysis in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. The transverse dimension of smile refers to the broadness of smile or the presence or absence of buccal corridor space. Buccal corridor space is nothing but the distance between the distal point of the canines and the lateral junction of upper and lower lips during smiling. Buccal corridor space has been thought of primarily in terms of maxillary width, but there is also evidence that they are heavily influenced by the anteroposterior position of maxilla in relation to lip drape.

30 patients between the ages of 18 to 30 years were included in the study. Based on ANB angle this patient were divided into 3 groups i.e., Skeletal class I, class II and class III malocclusion. Photographic analysis:Posed smile photographs of patients of age between 18 to 30 years made under standardized conditions were used for analysis to determine buccal corridor space.

: Transverse dimension is said to be a function of both arch width and antero-posterior position of the maxillary and mandibular arches.The results of this study show that there exist a correlation between malocclusion in sagittal plane and the amount of buccal corridor space. This fact must be considered during the orthodontic evaluation, diagnosis and planning of treatment for individuals with different types of malocclusions.

This study's results show a correlation between malocclusion in sagittal plane and the amount of buccal corridor space. This fact must be considered during the orthodontic evaluation, diagnosis, and planning of treatment for individuals with different types of malocclusions.

Published: November 2024

Clear aligner therapy(CAT) ses a variety of appliances with different applications to different malocclusion therapies and differing modes of action and construction methods. While clear aligner therapy seems very easy to use, but any kind of aligner system needs to go through a rigorous laboratory process to get the desired results. With the help of CAT Therapy products, a variety of malocclusions have been effectively treated. Clear aligners are still frequently made using the thermoforming process, despite the range of 3D Printed clear aligner systems that are currently on the market. However, orthodontists need to be aware of the materials' post-process mechanical and chemical properties because the thermoforming process significantly affects the aligners' mechanical and chemical properties. Thus, the goal of my research is to compare the adaptation and marginal thickness of aligners produced using various thermoforming machines both before and after intraoral exposure.

Aim of this study is to compare the thickness, adaptability, and marginal fit of orthodontic aligners made by various thermoformed machines.

The sample size was determined using G power software, which showed that the sample size of six patients divided into four groups had a 95% power of statistical testing. 3 consecutive patients, three women(mean age ± SD 26.0 ± 10.2 years) and three men(mean age ± SD 26.0 ± 9.0 years) per group made up the study sample,

Statistical analysis: The statistical analysis used was paired t-tests for comparison between the groups. A one-way ANOVA test was used to calculate the mean difference among the four groups. The p-value <0.05 shows that it was statistically significant.

Both the thermoforming machines can used to fabricate aligners that are equally good in terms of thickness considering the manufacturing recommendation. However, Aligner fabricated using Ministar thermoforming machine(Group A) with 1 mm thickness sheets shows that Mild changes thickness throughout the aligners in incisor and canine and molar regions and Druformat with shows uniformly distributed(group B) thickness in incisor, canine and molar region. between intra group comparison group shows mild changes after intraoral exposure. but the values within clinical tolerance level.

: Two distinct thermoforming machines were used to fabricate the passive aligners, and the overall dimensional accuracy at each of the teeth was within clinical tolerances. However, location-specific deviations that may affect clinical utility may not always be represented by the overall deviations.

Published: November 2024

The aim of the study is to establish a correlations between MPP-DPP metrics, ANB angle and Witts appraisal, as well as to determine whether perpendicular drawn from the centroids of the premaxilla(M) and mandibular symphysis(D) to the palatal plane can be utilised for identifying sagittal dysplasia in lateral cephalometric radiographs.

Orthodontic diagnoses has relied heavily on radiographic cephalometry. The limited validity of current assessment techniques, vertical jaw relationships, and growth-related jaw rotations have made evaluating sagittal jaw relationships difficult and also they are less vulnerable to factors that could compromise accuracy and have a reduced measurement error, linear measurements have clear advantages over angular measurements.

: lateral cephalometric radiographs of 90 individuals were included in this study and were divided into 3 groups based on their sagittal relationship,(Class 1, class 2, class 3). A perpendicular was drawn from point M(centroid of premaxilla) and point D(centroid of mandibular symphysis) to the palatal plane and the linear distance measured was compared to ANB and Witts appraisal.

The mean MPP -DPP values in Class I subjects was 3.222 ± 1.435, Class II subjects was 8.672 ± 2.443, and in Class III subjects was -6.410 ± 2.535 and this mean difference between 3 Skeletal classes was statistically significant at p<0.001. Additionally, the study showed a positive correlation between M-PP/D-PP metrics, ANB and Witts appraisal.

This study showcases the promise of MPP-DPP metrics as supplementary indicators in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. The strong positive correlations identified between MPP-DPP, ANB, and Wits appraisal underscore their value in evaluating sagittal jaw relationships.

Published: November 2024

Orthodontic therapy is known to enhance the general well-being and self-esteem of patients but people with Systemic illnesses necessitate taking specific precautions before, during, and/or after orthodontic treatment. With the advent of social media and increased awareness of facial appearance, all people including patients with compromised health are eager to seek orthodontic therapy.

In this study aims to understand the perception of orthodontic care towards medically compromised patients in senior orthodontic students, postgraduate orthodontic students, and general dental practitioners.

352 dental professionals—senior orthodontic practitioners, post-graduate orthodontic practitioners, general practitioners, and PG students of other specialties in India—were randomly chosen for this cross-sectional study to evaluate their perception of orthodontic care for patients with SHCN. Both online survey links and offline forms were distributed and collected over a period of six months throughout the network. The significance level for each test used in the data entry, collection, and analysis is P<0.005.

The overall knowledge of general practitioners and other specialty PG students was low. Although postgraduates from other branches were aware of a few scenarios, the senior orthodontics practitioners were aware of most situations due to their experience. There was no significant difference in the knowledge between senior orthodontic practitioners and postgraduate orthodontic students.

The orthodontic supervision for medically compromised patients’ awareness has to be raised. There should be a lot more seminars and lectures, especially for dental graduates and postgraduates.

En la era de los vehículos conectados, donde los automóviles ofrecen servicios digitales avanzados, surge una pregunta crucial: ¿deberían los fabricantes de vehículos ser considerados empresas de telecomunicaciones? Este artículo explora por qué, bajo el derecho europeo, los fabricantes de vehículos no deben ser clasificados como tales. Analizamos las definición legal de proveedores de servicios electrónicos de comunicaciones, el alcance de los servicios de conectividad máquina a máquina (M2M), la naturaleza accesoria de los servicios de telecomunicaciones proporcionado por los fabricantes de vehículos y las implicaciones regulatorias, todo ello, apoyándonos en la legislación vigente, la resolución de ciertas agencias de telecomunicaciones y la relación contractual entre los fabricantes de vehículos con las empresas de telecomunicaciones y el cliente final.
El juicio de pérdida de investidura de los congresistas: hacia la implementación de un sistema acusatorio

El sistema de justicia dispositivo es implementado actualmente en Colombia para el juicio de pérdida de investidura de los congresistas. Ahora bien, al ser un proceso sancionatorio, surge la pregunta de si es más adecuado adelantar su trámite bajo las lógicas del sistema acusatorio, propio de esta clase de procesos, y más alineado con los principios y presupuestos del ejercicio del ius puniendi. Las reflexiones consagradas en la presente investigación buscan responder a este interrogante, así como explicar las bases para una posible reforma. Virar hacia un sistema procesal de corte acusatorio permitiría un mejor cumplimiento de las exigencias derivadas del conjunto de principios que hacen parte del debido proceso.
Desarrollo de cohetes híbridos tipo sonda para potenciar la industria aeroespacial en Colombia
Authors: Prada Conde Santiago , Rojas Mora Fabio Arturo
Published: November 2024

Los cohetes sonda, utilizados en investigaciones espaciales, transportan cargas a altitudes elevadas y permiten estudios variados en breves tiempos espaciales. Son herramientas rentables por su naturaleza no orbital y la ausencia de propulsores costosos, lo cual los hace ideales en estudios de áreas inaccesibles para satélites. Recientemente, los cohetes híbridos tipo sonda fusionan características de motores de combustibles sólido y líquido, y han emergido como soluciones innovadoras, ofreciendo ventajas en rendimiento, seguridad y control. Estos cohetes usan propulsores que contienen elementos en fases sólidas y líquidas o gaseosas. A pesar de desafíos técnicos como la eficiencia de combustión reducida, han ganado relevancia en aplicaciones académicas y recreativas.
La metodología de este estudio combina enfoques cuantitativos y cualitativos para entender la tecnología tipo sonda global, identificar características de cohetes híbridos y explorar oportunidades para su implementación en Colombia. Por su parte, La propulsión híbrida se alinea con las oportunidades y los desafíos del entorno aeroespacial colombiano, ofreciendo una alternativa técnica y estratégica. Los resultados finales, como la construcción del cohete AINKAA H1, validan la viabilidad de desarrollar cohetes híbridos en Colombia. Finalmente, es esencial que Colombia fortalezca su infraestructura y sus colaboraciones para aprovechar oportunidades y consolidarse en el mercado espacial global.
Los precedentes en serio. Separación de poderes y plenos casatorios civiles en el Perú
Authors: Lozada Mego Óscar
Published: November 2024

Con la entrada en vigencia del Código Procesal Civil de 1993, se introdujo en el sistema jurídico peruano una nueva técnica de uniformización jurisprudencial: la «doctrina jurisprudencial», posteriormente denominada «precedente judicial» (artículo 400). A la luz de esta disposición, las Salas Civiles de la Corte Suprema encontraron respaldada su facultad para emitir, en el marco de los plenos casatorios, sentencias plenarias que consagran reglas jurisprudenciales vinculantes. «Los precedentes en serio» busca demostrar que el «modelo» de emisión de enunciados jurisprudenciales vinculantes no es respetuoso de nuestro ordenamiento constitucional pues los jueces civiles de la Corte Suprema asumen un rol equiparable al de un legislador, lo cual quebranta el principio de separación de poderes. En atención a ello, se ofrece una propuesta interpretativa del artículo 400 del Código Procesal Civil que insta a la adopción de un trabajo con precedentes basado en hechos, compatibilizando, de esta manera, la praxis de las Salas Civiles de la Corte Suprema con el principio de separación de poderes.

Background: Nigrospora is one of the diversified pathogens with wide host range. Endophytic nature of Nigrospora oryzae has been reported previously. Daily variations in the climate led to the emergence of virulent infections from previously expressed weak ones. Nigrospora oryzae infestation comes as a major biotic stress under this present investigation. Methods: A study was conducted to examine the variability of Nigrospora oryzae by collecting isolates from various locations in the south coastal region of Odisha. The level of virulence was assessed and analyzed between 2021 and 2023 to anticipate the emergence and progression of disease. The pathogen was identified using molecular techniques through ITS-r DNA sequencing method. Result: Disease incidence was observed as a critical blast-like appearance, but greater in size, distinguishing it from blast. In the experiment, incomplete filling of grains was highest in MTU-7029 (39.73 plant-1) followed by Niranjana and Gobindobhog; disease incidence was recorded to be highest in Niranjana (60.03%) followed by MTU-7029 and Barsha; and grain yield plant-1 was observed to be highly affected in Gobindobhog (14.58 g plant-1 followed by MTU-7029 and Niranjana. Molecular confirmation was established by ITS-rDNA sequencing, resulted sequence NO 9 (528 bp)- OP592217 and NO 15 (519 bp)- OP592218, exactly matches gene bank accession numbers- MH748173 (India) and ON514037 (India) of Nigrospora database, with 99% accuracy.

Background : The growth rate in agriculture refers to the increase in agricultural productivity over a specific period of time where as Instability is the fluctuations and uncertainties in various factors that affect the agricultural sector which creates major challenges for farmers and the farming industry. The present study is conducted to examine the growth and instability in area, production and productivity of selected cereal, millet and oilseed crop of Odisha. Methods: The whole study period is divided into two subperiod, period I (1970-71 to 1994-95) and Period II (1995-96 to 2019-20). The Cuddy Della Valle Instability Index (CDVI), Coppock’s Instability Index (CII) and coefficient of variation (CV) are used to measure the instability in the area, production and productivity of maize, jowar and sesamum. Whereas the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is used to measure the growth rates. Result: For whole study period, the CAGR showed a rise in the area and production of both sesame and maize over time. Highest value of CAGR is found in maize production for both the period- I and period-II. The CAGR for the productivity of jowar is found to be significantly negative for the whole period. The largest value of the Cuddy Della Valle volatility Index was observed in maize productivity, indicating the higher degree of instability.maximum instability observed in production of maize due to the lowest value of CII and CV. Productivity of jowar is found to be more stable and consistent followed by the productivity of sesame due to the lowest value of the coefficient of variation.
