Flowering cemento-osseous dysplasia is a benign condition characterized by changes in the process of bone formation and the deposit of mineralized tissue in the soft tissues of the oral cavity. The diagnosis of flowering cemento-osseous dysplasia is accompanied by radiographic examinations, and treatment depends on the severity of the condition and the patient's symptoms. Thus, it is important for patients to undergo periodic dental examinations to monitor the progression of the condition. A literature review on the radiographic examination and dental treatment of patients with this condition was conducted with searches in February 2023, in the PubMed, Scielo, Lilacs and BBO databases, following certain criteria for selection. Seven articles were identified and in them, there is evidence that some patients may not have clinical symptoms, but it is possible that patients develop periodontal disease. Having, as a potential complication of the condition, the possibility of losing teeth due to the rapid progression of periodontal disease. In addition, in rare cases, flowering cemento-osseous dysplasia can progress to a more serious condition such as a cemento-ossifying fibro-osseous lesion or an adenomatous odontogenic tumor.

Objective: To discuss and highlight in the literature the determining factors of non-adherence of elderly patients with RAS to drug therapy, potentiated by the COVID pandemic 19. Material and method: This is a literature review that aims at the analysis and synthesis of the determining factors for the non-adhering of the elderly with hypertension to drug treatment. We analyzed the publications produced between 2017 and 2022, with full texts and available in the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (LILACS) and Google Scholar, in addition to the manual of the 7th Brazilian Guidelines on Arterial Hypertension and the World Health Organization (WHO). Results: The search in the databases resulted in the identification of 1,203 articles. After the final reading, 32 articles were selected that contemplated the objectives discussed in the development of this work. Final considerations: It was found that many factors interfere with the non-adherence of the elderly to drug therapy, factors that are linked to the elderly and the health system, as the patient presents difficulties in following the proposed therapeutic scheme, either due to its complexity, forgetfulness, adverse effect of the drug and its belief in alternative empirical drugs.
Assessment of access to health products, technologies and services among the BRICS through their health indicators and their participation in global health policy
Authors: Soares Rosa Leonôra Salerno
Published: August 2023

In the OMS Constitution, the preamble states that the health of all peoples is fundamental to the attainment of peace and security, and that the achievement of any state in promoting and protecting health is of value to all. Thus, the global health issue is part of all discussions of global diplomacy in the 21st century. Since 2001, identified as the main countries in their regions, Brazil, Russia, India and China have grown in economic terms in addition to adopting activist foreign policies. Identified as a geopolitical bloc since 2006, the BRICS believe they have the right to play more relevant roles in the management of the global order in the 21st century. Despite exhibiting many regional differences, the member countries of the BRICS strive to be recognized as members of the same group through some strategies such as participation in international institutions and the effort to create connections between development and foreign policy. Many analysts suggest that the BRICS are more active in global health. Recently, this group of countries increased their cooperation in the field of social development, environmental protection and health, institutionalized regular meetings of their ministers of health, with stated objectives to address emerging health threats, both for their populations and globally. Thus, we consider that the presentation of a comparative panel of health indicators of the countries that make up the BRICS is useful for researchers in the area.

As evidências científicas demonstram que a simulação como estratégia de ensino tem ótimos resultados no processo ensino aprendizado, com percepção positiva dos alunos. Dessa forma, as instituições de ensino superior devem fomentar a utilização de metodologias ativas, incrementar a capacitação dos docentes e desenvolver as estruturas institucionais para a realização da simulação. Este estudo apresenta as experiências de simulação no processo de ensino-aprendizagem em atenção primária no Curso de Enfermagem do Centro Universitário Barão de Mauá. Os docentes de um curso de enfermagem, desde 2019, desenvolvem atividades simulando os vários tipos de atendimentos realizados na Atenção Primária à Saúde. Foi possível destacar algumas experiências como atuação do enfermeiro em sala de vacina, visita domiciliar utilizando as tecnologias de ensino remoto e situações cotidianas vivenciadas pelo enfermeiro na atenção primária. As simulações foram realizadas seguindo as etapas: preparação (abrange o briefing), participação (desenvolvimento da vivência no cenário) e debriefing (processo analítico). Após estas 3 etapas, foram realizadas avaliações de cada uma das experiências com resultados positivos, nos quais os alunos destacavam que o aprendizado foi efetivo e que gostariam de mais oportunidades de simulação e reflexão teórico-prática. Nas disciplinas desenvolvidas na APS, a simulação, utilizada como ferramenta para auxiliar no processo de aprendizagem, tem se mostrado eficaz como disparador de interesse pela temática abordada, levando o aluno a estudar e perceber os detalhes que farão diferença para a prática segura nas vivências da Atenção Primária.

Published: August 2023

Nos últimos anos, houve uma mudança na concepção de saúde, o que levou a uma reflexão sobre os currículos e a formação de profissionais de saúde. Nessa perspectiva, currículos integrados e metodologias ativas de aprendizagem ganharam espaço para promover a formação interprofissional. Este trabalho tem como objetivo relatar experiências de acadêmica de enfermagem com equipe multiprofissional em saúde da família em estágio curricular na atenção primária à saúde. Durante os meses de maio a julho de 2022, a acadêmica compartilhou espaço com a equipe do Núcleo Ampliado de Saúde da Família e residentes de diferentes profissões, promovendo discussões sobre vários temas e reflexão sobre o SUS e seus desafios. A atenção primária permitiu a troca de experiências com a comunidade e a equipe de saúde, desenvolvendo habilidades como escuta, acolhimento, pensamento crítico, responsabilidade e autonomia. O estágio curricular I é uma disciplina que permite a visão da equipe multiprofissional, promovendo a compreensão das competências e habilidades dos outros profissionais de saúde e proporcionando a aplicação e aprofundamento dos conhecimentos adquiridos ao longo da graduação.

The Assessment of the Microbial and Hygienic Quality of Leafy Vegetables Along with Associated Microbials among Vegetables Purchased from Different Markets in Guyana
Authors: Sukdeo Vashthi , Daniel Ruth , Ansari Abdullah
Published: August 2023

Fruits and vegetables are important to human health because they provide nutritional benefits, they are a good source of vitamins and minerals and help to improve the immune system of individuals. It was advised by the Food and Agriculture Organization of Guyana that individuals should consume more fruits and vegetables to boost their immune systems during the Coronavirus pandemic. Due to the increase in consumption of fruits and vegetables, there can also be an increase in cases of food-borne diseases, as evident from studies done in countries such as, the United States, Malaysia, and India. The objectives of this research was to identify the presence of microorganisms on leafy vegetables, Lactuca sativa (lettuce), Brassica oleracea (cabbage), and Amaranthus viridis (callaloo), that were purchased from local markets and to determine if washing with tap water only, will significantly decrease the concentration of microorganisms on the vegetables by performing microbial assessments.

It was found that the most common microorganisms present on the leafy vegetables were pathogenic bacteria such as Neisseria spp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Paracoccus marcusii, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Bordetella pertussis, and Klebsiella pneumonia. The results of a Wilcoxon signed-rank test (p value = 1) revealed that washing with tap water alone did not significantly decrease the quantity of microorganisms present on the leafy vegetables (avg: 3.305x10-2 CFU/ml). Therefore, it is recommended that other hygienic methods such as washing with salt, lemon juice, or vinegar should be utilized in order to significantly reduce the concentration of the microorganisms present on the leafy vegetables.

Cuba in Africa
Authors: Piero Gleijeses
Published: August 2023

The end of Portuguese colonialism ignited the dormant liberation struggles in South Africa and in neighbouring Namibia. Cuba was, as Piero Gleijeses argues in this important exposition on the topic, the catalyst for the transformation of the region from one dominated by white settler minority rule to single party constitutional democracies led by the former liberation movements. The author’s careful use of archival material and interviews from the three main protagonists– Cuba, the United States and South Africa – is the key distinguishing feature of this authoritative account. Covering one and a half decades, the book describes in great detail the policy initiatives, debates and reactions as the three capitals sought to shape the politics of a region on the cusp of change.

Alain Mabanckou est un jeune écrivain congolais qui est largement reconnu pour ses oeuvres issues du terroir mais ayant une portée universelle. Ses romans sont nombreux, nous citerons Mémoires de porc-épic2 qui constitue le second volet d’une trilogie inaugurée par Verre Cassé. grâce à la littérature, mabanckou jette  des ponts entre trois mondes différents: l’Afrique, l’Europe et l’Amérique. Nous retrouvons les traces d’auteurs qu’il vénère tels que Diderot, Voltaire, Robert Louis Stevenson et surtout La Fontaine qu’il parodie avec gourmandise. Dans la lignée de Senghor, Kourouma ou Hampaté Bâ, mabanckou estime lui  aussi que la culture africaine ne sera sauvée de l’oubli que par le papier.
Borders as Bridges, not Barriers
Authors: Anthony I. Asiwaju
Published: August 2023

In the year 1960 alone, a total of 17 African countries gained flag independence, followed in quick succession by many others in the following years, invariably validating the euphoria that the 1960s was the decade of independence for Africa.With a plethora of former colonial possessions of European countries gaining independence, there was palpable anxiety,if not outright expectation, that the new African nation-states would explode, combust and convulse violently in an orgyof inter-state bloodbath on a continental scale. It was apparent that the territorial states that colonial adventure had created and bequeathed to Africans were anything but durable,1 and the boundaries that separated or ‘sliced’ (apologies to Nobel Laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka) them into new nation-states were not only artificial and arbitrary but had scant regard for ethnographic realities on the ground, often splitting or sundering the same peoples between several territorial states and corralling diverse and hitherto un-integrated ethnic nations into the same compact. Hence what Professor Anthony Asiwaju has famously referred to as ‘partitioned Africans.’

Shopping for Ideas to Unlock Africa’s Economic Potential Asnake Kefale
Authors: Greg Mills  , Jeffrey Herbst
Published: August 2023

Africa’s Third Liberation examines how the continent could finally liberate itself from degrading poverty. Mills and Herbst contend that Africa’s first two liberations, liberation from colonialists and liberation from the liberators, would remain incomplete unless Africa is able to ensure development that provides decent life to its people and jobs to the restless youth. The third liberation, according to the authors, should also free the continent from the deeply entrenched politics of patronage and corruption.
When Theory Misses History
Authors: Aaron Tesfaye
Published: August 2023

As the latest addition to the literature on the Ethiopian developmental state, published mainly in the context of the political crisis that has been currently shaking the country, any reader of (Ethiopian) political economy would benefit from reading this book. The Ethiopian developmental state and its ‘impressive’ achievement is the central subject matter of Aaron Tesfaye’s book. Conceptualizing economic development broadly as a process of transforming not onlythe economic sector but also the social and the political structure of a country, the author explores this transformationprocess anchoring his analysis on the role of the Ethiopian state. Defining the developmental state by its ideology andstructural autonomy from society, Aaron sets the major problematique of the book- the history of successful developmental states in Africa - in order to debunk the Afro-pessimist representation of African states as collapsed and too weak to be agents of development. Indeed, using the success stories of Botswana and the emerging success of Ethiopia as evidence, the author debunks the pessimist representation of African states. It is the empirical record of economic growth measured in GDP and the impressive performance in achieving Millennium Development Goals and self-proclaimed emulation project of ‘developmental’ state by Ethiopian leaders, acclaimed by scholars and international aid agencies alike, that constitute the rationale of Aaron’s book.

AFRICA in the INDIAN Imagination
Authors: Antoinette BURTON
Published: August 2023

Little over six decades ago, in 1955 to be precise, Indonesia hosted an important gathering that sought to make a major contribution to the ordering of the system of international relations in the post-Second World War period and the onset of the Cold War. This was the first Afro-Asian conference which was held in Bandung, Indonesia on 18-24 April 1955. It was sponsored by India, Indonesia, Burma, Ceylon, Pakistan and an additional 24 Asian and African countries. Fifty years later, on 2024 April 2005, the second Asian-African Conference was also held in Jakarta and Bandung. The Bandung Conference considered problems of common interest and concern to countries of Asia and Africa and discussed ways and means by which their people could achieve fuller economic, cultural and political cooperation, thus launching an era of Afro-Asian cooperation.
La santé dans les pays du sud à l’épreuve de la mondialisation

L’ouvrage est une synthèse du colloque « Politique étrangère et diplomatie de la santé mondiale » organisé par la chaire « Savoirs contre pauvreté » du Collège de France. Il est codirigé par Dominique Kerouedan, docteur en médecine, dont les travaux portent sur « la gouvernance et la géopolitique de l’aide au développement en santé, et sur l’articulation des relations institutionnelles induites par celles-ci à l’échelle globale avec l’effectivité de l’amélioration de l’état de santé et de l’offre de santé, préventive et curative, sur le terrain »1 et Joseph Brunet-Jailly, économiste, spécialiste des systèmes de santé d’Afrique de l’ouest, ayant à son actif plusieurs travaux sur le Mali2. L’ouvrage rassemble dix-huit contributions d’enseignants, chercheurs, praticiens de la santé et d’acteurs politiques. La problématique s’articule autour de la santé comme enjeu et risque majeur pour la vie des individus. Autrement dit, « la santé de la population de la planète pourrait être choisie comme l’enjeu de la stratégie de développement, à la place de ce qui tient lieu aujourd’hui : la croissance mesurée par la somme des valeurs ajoutées, un indicateur de plus en plus contesté »3.

FSS Welcomes the Africa Review of Books

Published: August 2023

Book reviews have been for long a vital component of academic and professional journals. Indeed, some journals have been prized as much for their reviews as for their articles, the former often occupying up to 50% of the space. Subsequently, a genre of publication has developed dedicated primarily to the review of books, interspersed with critical and analytical essays. One has in mind such celebrated publications as the New York Review of Books and the London Review of Books. More recently, Biblio, published in New Delhi, has come to represent an Asian (or Southern) counterpart vying with the established metropolitan Reviews for depth and analytical rigor. Evidently, the book reviews in such publications are more substantive and critical than those in the standard academic journals.

Le substantif « témoin » en Kinyarwanda se traduit comme « umugabo », terme qui signifie en français « homme » au sens masculin du terme. Même la preuve par neuf couramment utilisée en arithmétique par les enfants de l’école élémentaire se traduit comme «umugabo» en kinyarwanda. Il est donc clair que dès le plus jeune âge, l’enfant rwandais apprend inconsciemment la validité et le pouvoir de la parole masculine et indirectement le caractère éphémère et banal de la parole féminine. Au Rwanda traditionnel, le témoignage était donc conçu au départ comme un acte de parole réservé aux hommes et duquel les femmes étaient exclues. La crédibilité du témoin féminin est réfutée notamment quand le contenu du témoignage constitue un sujet sérieux ou tabou. L’acte de témoigner du génocide est encore plus compliqué parce que le témoin doit rendre l’indicible dicible par le pouvoir de la parole. Dans ses trois livres, Yolande Mukagasana, une femme rwandaise qui a perdu presque toute sa famille pendant le génocide de 1994, réclame l’acte de témoigner, se l’approprie et pousse même ceux qui ont peur de la parole et ceux qui l’ont perdue à la reprendre et à la récupérer pour enfin témoigner.

L’auteur s’efforce ainsi de suivre une herméneutique qui confronte les différents types de discours dans lesquels la tradition islamique s’est organisée pendant de nombreux siècles et aujourd’hui encore1, d’une part à leur propre logique, et d’autre part à des discours savants, extérieurs à cette tradition et qui s’évertuent à s’appliquer à elle, en particulier le discours de la psychanalyse, et celui de l’anthropologie, et aussicette synthèse entre le droit, la psychanalyse et l’anthropologie qu’élabore Jean Pierre Legendre.

Football in Africa: Conflict, Conciliation and Community by Gary Armstrong and Richard Giulianotti (eds)Palgrave Macmillan, 2004, Pp.xi + 301, bibliography, index ISBN: 0-333-91979-3 (cloth)
Football is the most popular sport across the African continent. Thriving domestic leagues exist in many African countries; continent-wide club championships are played each year; and the bi-annual African Cup of Nations pits national teams against one another. Five national teams represent the continent in the FIFA World Cup held every four years. African teams have reached the quarterfinals of this specific competition. They have had even greater success in the junior world competitions and the Olympic Games, both of which they have won. South Africa will host the 2010 FIFA World Cup and this will bring the tournament to African soil for the first time. For over 50 years, African players have been exported to the lucrative leagues  of Europe and have excelled, while foreign coaches have brought their skills to the continent. African football has become an integral part of the football community worldwide.

L’Algérie. Porte de l’Afrique de Slimane CHEIKH Alger, Casbah éditions, 2000, 319 pp.
Dédié à Frantz Fanon, cet ouvrage structuré en deux parties traite de la question de la représentation de l’Afrique en ce fin de siècle marqué par un nouvel ordre international. «… que représente l’Afrique par rapport aux autres parties du monde et en ce siècle finissant et quel espoir autorise-t-elle au seuil de ce siècle nouveau ? ». Il synthétise un ensemblecomplexe de faits où l’Algérie occupe une place centrale dans ses relations avec le Monde et avec l’Afrique en particulier. À partir de cette esquisse, un argument sert d’hypothèse introductive : le dernier sommet africain du 20e siècle a eu lieu à Alger. Ce choix aux yeux de l’auteur, est hautement symbolique compte tenu de la place qu’occupe l’Algérie sur la scène politique africaine dont le destin commun a été la lutte contre la colonianisme. En même temps, sa position géographique face à l’Europe, lui vaut une présence dans le système international où se forgent les fondements de sa politique extérieure.

Ouvrage documenté, cette synthèse portant sur le Sahara présente une formidable somme d’informations, fruit d’un demi siècle de recherches effectuées par Jean Bisson sur le terrain de différents pays (Algérie, Tunisie, Libye, Mauritanie) et complétées par des incursions dans les pays de la frange saharo-sahélienne.Couvrant 8.500.000 km2 et habité par 7.000.000 de personnes, ce milieu naturel aride chevauche sur l’Afrique du Nord et l’Afrique subsaharienne ; c’est dire là, la portée de son rôle géostratégique en ce début de millénaire caractérisé par la mondialisation et la protection de l’environnement. Dans cet ordre d’idées, cet espace naturel est une zone d’échanges multiformes qui, dotée d’énormes ressources minières et énergétiques, reste géographiquement fractionnée entre huit Etats africains (reconnus). Certes, il demeure caractérisé par un sousdéveloppement de niveau différencié, mais il connaît, depuis la période de la décolonisation de l’Afrique des transformations démographiques, économiques et spatiales indéniables. Par tous ces éléments d’analyse, le Sahara apparaît aussi, dans le texte présenté, comme une zone de conflits politiques récurrents en raison des enjeux territoriaux et économiques, c’est-à-dire un désert convoité tant par des pouvoirs étatiques africains en place que par les grandes puissances mondiales...

Ghana’s Kofi Annan was the first black African to serve as Secretary-General of the United Nations (UN) – between 1997 and 2006 – and he shared the Nobel Peace Prize with the UN in 2001. During his ten-year tenure, Annan courageously, but perhaps naïvely, championed the cause of ‘humanitarian intervention’. After a steep decline in the mid-1990s, peacekeeping increased again by 2005 to around 80,000 troops, with a budget of $3.2 billion. African countries like Sudan, Congo, Liberia, Ethiopia/Eritrea, and Côte d’Ivoire were the main beneficiaries. Annan also moved the UN bureaucracy from its creative inertia to embrace views and actors from outside the system: mainly civil society and the private sector...

Et pourtant dans quelques pays qui ne produisent pas le diamant quelques uns de leurs ressortissants sont devenus des diamantaires, des trafiquants de diamant à la lisière des Etats et des marchés structurés. C’est ainsi qu’a commencé l’enquête de Sylvie Bredeloup auprès des diamantaires du fleuve Sénégal, citoyens des Etats du Sénégal, du Mali et de Mauritanie, « mettant en relation des territoires où la pierre s’extrait, s’achète, se vend et se polit (...) » (p. 11).

When Barack (‘blessed’) Obama – the child of a Kenyan father and Kansan mother – was elected as the first African-American president of the United States in November 2008, a wave of ‘Obamamania’ swept across the African continent, its Diaspora, and the world. Former South African president, Nelson Mandela, noted: ‘Your victory has demonstrated that no person anywhere in the world should not dare to dream of wanting to change the world for a better place’. Kenyan president Mwai Kibaki said: ‘The victory of Senator Obama is our own victory because of his roots here in Kenya. As a country, we are full of pride for his success’. South African president at the time, Kgalema Motlanthe, opined: ‘Your election…. carries with it hope formillions…. of people of …African descent both in Africa and in the diaspora’. Nigerian president, Umaru Yar’Adua noted: ‘Obama’s election has finally broken the greatest barrier of prejudice in human history. For us in Nigeria, we have a great lesson to draw from this historic event.’ Finally, the former United Nations (UN) Secretary-General, the Ghanaian Kofi Annan, exclaimed: ‘Obama’s victory demonstrates America’s extraordinary capacity to renew itself.’...

Is There a Solution to the Problems of Somalia?
Authors: Amin Samir
Published: August 2023

To the best of my knowledge, Afyare Abdi Elmi’s book provides unequalled documentation on the actors in the drama of Somalia. The explanation of this drama, the decomposition of the state which has unfolded since 1991 (the fall of Siyad Barre), demands a return to the country’s history from independence in 1960 until the fall of Barre in 1991. And on this point, Afyare is terse (see page 17), to say the least...

Zwischen Anpassung und Resistenz
Authors: Wörner Corinna
Published: August 2023

Johann Sebastian Bach was a projection screen for ideologically shaped cultural policy under both National Socialism and the GDR. Artists served as propaganda instruments in both regimes' efforts to gain political legitimacy. As cultural ambassadors of two dictatorships, the Thomaskantors Karl Straube, Günther Ramin, Kurt Thomas and Erhard Mauersberger, together with the Thomaner, walked a fine line between artistic freedom and political doctrine. They operated in the area of tension between artistic self-interest and political instrumentalization. The St. Thomas Boys' Choir was neither a place of complete conformity nor of outright resistance; rather, shades of gray dominated. Both political systems wanted to eliminate ecclesiastical ties. Despite a high potential for conflict, no St. Thomas Cantor revealed these in essence; they were not negotiable, but adaptable. Within the framework of a sectoral comparison of dictatorships, ecclesiastical and secular fields of work, repertoire, and social and organizational structure are comprehensively examined on the basis of exemplary thematic areas that characterize the entire period under investigation. By means of qualitative and quantitative methods, the different perspectives of actors and institutions in the Nazi and SED states are shown in a differentiated way.n)
Die Genese und der parteipolitische Diskurs um öffentliche Wirtschaftstätigkeit
Authors: Kraus Katinka
Published: August 2023

The book examines the history of the development and background of public economic activity. It shows that municipal economic activity in Germany was originally subject to fiscal or policy objectives, which were increasingly abandoned in favor of general regulatory provisions. Accordingly, the municipal economy is closely linked to political economic positions. The article focuses on this connection and analyzes the ideological patterns of the party-political discourse on public economic activity, which had led to numerous privatisations and remunicipalizations in recent years.
„Herr des Seins“
Authors: Kozdra Grzegorz
Published: August 2023

In seiner Spätphilosophie unternimmt Schelling den Versuch, einen überzeugenden Gottesbegriff zu entwickeln. Das System der positiven Philosophie beansprucht, eine „höhere Geschichte“ des göttlichen Seins darzustellen. Dieses ist kein bloßes Sein, es ist vielmehr „Leben“, welches sich als schöpferische Freiheit manifestiert. Gott ist „Geist und Leben“ oder ein „lebendiger Geist“, der nicht in seinem Sein verschlossen oder in sich fixiert bleibt. In diesem Von-sich-Hinwegkönnen besteht seine absolute Freiheit, in der er sich selbst als Schöpfer erkennt.

Der vollkommene Geist ist für Schelling nur der, „der an keine Form, an keine Gestalt gebunden ist, der nicht unum quid sein muß“. Der absolute Geist geht über alle Gestalten hinaus, auch von seiner Gestalt als das Geist-Sein, die ihm nur eine Form des Seins ist. Erst diese Freiheit „von sich selbst“ gibt ihm „die überschwängliche Freiheit“. Die absolute Transzendenz des Geistes ist seine absolute Freiheit „über alle Arten des Seins“, auch gegen sein Inneres. Absolute Freiheit ist absolute Existenzbemächtigung, totale Macht über die Existenz. In dieser Macht, das Sein zu setzen oder nicht zu setzen, ist Gott der „Herr des Seins“, d.h. der Herr über den theogonischen und kosmologischen Prozess.

Chinesischer Karneval
Authors: Yu Yangyang
Published: August 2023

Als Gast beim hundertjährigen Geburtstagsfest des chinesischen Schauspiels, im Jahr 2007, erfuhr ich von der Größe, der fachlichen Perfektion, der Ideologie sowie des ästhetischen Anspruchs des sogenannten mainstream-Theaters. Doch ziehen mich gleichermaßen dramatische Stücke abseits des mainstreams an, wie etwa Das Klo, Der Studiousus und der Henker sowie Das Krematorium. Diese heben sich mit deutlich tabubehafteten, düsteren und blutigen Elementen von der im mainstream-Theater verbreiteten Perfektion und Noblesse ab und handeln den dort verbreiteten Idealen gänzlich zuwider. Dieser Kontrast verdeutlicht das Schlüsselelement der vorliegenden Studie – das Groteske. Anhand der theoretischen Grundlagen von Michail Bachtin, der Theorie der Karnevalisierung, werden erstmals in einer deutschsprachige Studie groteske Erscheinungsformen in ausgewählten chinesischen Theatertexten analysiert und interpretiert. Durch das Studium des Grotesken in historischen Formen von Kunst, Literatur und dem traditionellen Gesang-Rezitation-Tanz-Akrobatik-Theater wird zuerst ein Kompendium zum entsprechenden Thema geschaffen, das als Grundlage für die weitere Erforschung des zeitgenössischen Schauspiels dient. Im Rahmen der Diskussion der Dramen finden vier Aspekte eine besondere Betrachtung: Groteske Gestaltungselemente, grotesker Charakter, groteske Sprache und Ästhetik sowie ideologische Konnotationen. In den besprochenen Theaterstücken koexistiert ein gespaltenes und miteinander verflochtenes Gefühl von Tragödie und Komödie, hier gleichen sich Licht und Dunkelheit, Glauben und Zweifel, Körper und Seele in bemerkenswerter Weise aus.

Dirichlet (p,q)-equations with gradient dependent and locally defined reaction
Authors: Liu Zhenhai , Papageorgiou Nikolaos S.
Published: August 2023

We consider a Dirichlet (p,q)-equation, with a gradient dependent reaction which is only locally defined. Using truncations, theory of nonlinear operators of monotone type, and fixed point theory (the Leray-Schauder Alternative Theorem), we show the existence of a positive smooth solution.

Existence of solutions for implicit obstacle problems involving nonhomogeneous partial differential operators and multivalued terms
Authors: Zeng Shengda , Bai Yunru , Gasinski Leszek , Krech Ireneusz
Published: August 2023

In this article, we study an implicit obstacle problem with a nonlinear nonhomogeneous partial differential operator and a multivalued operator which is described by a generalized gradient. Under quite general assumptions on the data, and employing Kluge's fixed point principle for multivalued operators, Minty  echnique and a surjectivity theorem, we prove that the set of weak solutions to the problem is nonempty, bounded and weakly closed.

Factors affecting the adoption of destination management systems by stakeholders: Proposal of an explanatory model
Authors: Estêvão João , Teixeira Leonor , Carneiro Maria João
Published: August 2023

Despite Destination Management Systems’ (DMSs) important role in management and promotion of destinations, the research on factors influencing their adoption is scarce. This paper aims to empirically analyse the influence of a comprehensive range of factors on DMS adoption and propose a model. A questionnaire survey was applied to tourism players in a Portuguese region (Centro) without DMSs. Results were subsequently analysed using Principal Component Analyses and multiple linear regressions. The study corroborates the findings of previous research. However, it also provides new insights, revealing a positive influence of available resources and strategic vision of stakeholders on the stakeholders’ willingness to adopt DMSs and a negative impact of alternative web platforms and inexistence of complementary DMSs, on adoption intentions, being proposed the model—DMSs’ Adoption Model (DeMSAM).
Process induced degradation of carbamazepine during hot melt extrusion
Authors: Bose Sarbamangala , Paradkar Anant , Kelly Adrian , Magam Harika
Published: August 2023

The aim of this studywas to evaluate hot melt extrudates of carbamazepine(CBZ) for presence of process induced degradation product iminostilbene (IMB) and quantifying using highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC). CBZ was used as model drug. Hot-melt extrusion (HME) was performed to preparesolid dispersions. Different grades of compatible polymers were used. Drug loading,processing temperature and screw rotations per minute (RPM) showed significanteffect on degradation of CBZ The extrudates were characterized by differentialscanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) studies. DSC and XRD data confirmed formation of amorphous soliddispersions of CBZ. HPLC was performed to quantify percentage amount of CBZ andIMB. Process induced degradation was significantly varied depending on polymergrade and (w/w) percentage combinations. In addition, processing temperatureand RPM had direct effect on percentage of IMB formation.
