“La patria es impecable y diamantina”: Performing Diamantina in Cristina Rivera Garza’s (Non)Fiction
Authors: Davaslioglu Thania
Published: November 2022

Cristina Rivera Garza’s (non) fiction trajectory is a dialogue of interests threaded by her passions for translation, history, poetics, among many other topics. In this article, Diamantina -- a repetitive character in the author’s corpora -- is traced to analyze how gender and cultural memory are portrayed in Nadie me verá llorar (1999) Ningún reloj cuenta esto (2002) and Dolerse: textos desde un país herido (2011). By commenting on Ramón López Velarde’s famous stanza “La patria es impecable y diamantina” in “Suave patria” (1921), Rivera Garza proposes an alternative way of performing nation by women who resist the virtuous adjectives exalted by Velarde in post-revolutionary Mexico, which can be threaded to the glitter used in recent public demonstrations against femicides and gender-based violence. Narrative memory is proposed to name the intersections of intertextuality and cultural memory in her literary cultural production that goes beyond the borders of a nation. This article centralizes the short-story, “La alineación también tiene su belleza” in Ningún reloj cuenta esto, which is set in San Antonio, Texas and New York City, to analyze Mexican canonical representations of women as Patria from a transnational lens.
“Alimentar el espíritu, alimentar el cuerpo: marginalidad y lectura en Patíbulo para un caballo, de Cronwell Jara”
Authors: Chavarry Jose
Published: November 2022

Este artículo analiza la representación del libro y la lectura en la novela Patíbulo para un caballo (1989), del escritor peruano Cronwell Jara, y su función frente a la marginalidad y el hambre. La novela forma parte de la narrativa de la barriada, un espacio urbano periférico erigido por migrantes de provincia y caracterizado por la precariedad, la informalidad y la violencia. Mientras que otras obras del género se aproximan a este espacio desde los lentes de la miseria y la otredad, Montacerdos, la barriada en Patíbulo para un caballo, es una población que lee y que se vale de sus prácticas lectoras para imaginar y crear futuros alternativos y propios. Sugiero que los personajes de la novela hacen del libro y la lectura una experiencia íntima y cotidiana, que transciende una comunidad imaginada que los margina (Anderson), y en vez generan espacios y momentos de una comunión lectora (Silverman). Esta comunión parte, propongo, de una interacción con el libro que opera no solo a un nivel cognitivo, sino que se manifiesta como una práctica física y corpórea (Littau, McLaughlin). En particular, esta interacción se manifiesta a través del hambre de los pobladores de Montacerdos: a falta de alimentos, estos hacen del libro un vehículo para procurar comida, de manera metafórica y literal. En Patíbulo para un caballo, la lectura es tanto una forma de saciar el hambre como de afirmar una potencialidad creativa desde los márgenes de la ciudad letrada.
A Meditation on the Translation of Our America
Authors: Brown Katherine
Published: November 2022

This translation of José Martí's Nuestra América (Our America) and accompanying essay offer English-speaking readers a new version of his seminal text, situating it more firmly within the realm of literary and translation studies, and decentering it from the world of Latin American history or politics, where the extant English translations tend to live in North American libraries. The translator’s meditation focuses on some of the more poetic aspects of Martí's language and the logic he employs to create interconnected evolving metaphors and metonyms, while also explaining some of the lexical and syntactic choices made in key areas that have traditionally caused difficulty with previous translations of this essay.

Letters to Chican@s from Oaxaca
Authors: Calderón J.
Published: November 2022

These poetic epistles emerged from the political and academic puzzling of a type of forgetting and of a recurrent practice in certain communities of Chican@s. I noticed the forgetting of transnational ties that bound diasporas with the territories of their ancestors. Also, I witnessed an increasingly recurrent practice of (mis)uses of decolonial vocabularies, such as ancestry, barrio, or gente, in art/ivism circles and circuits for their commodity value in neoliberal diversity writing (programs). These poems decried the importance of noticing fetishized contacts between cultures, places, and people.
Breadfruit in the Wake: Imagining Vegetal Mutiny in Derek Walcott's "The Bounty"
Authors: Cole Hannah
Published: November 2022

I examine Derek Walcott’s portrayal of the journey of the breadfruit in “The Bounty,” which intertwines the history of the species’ transplantation with an elegy for the poet’s own mother. In its depiction of the mutiny on the Bounty, Walcott’s poem opens up a moment of Glissantian détour in the plants’ path from Tahiti to Jamaica when they are cast asea. I center the jettisoned plants rather than the crew or captain of the ship to explore how the interpretation of the event might change if we imagine the florae themselves to be the real mutineers. Invoking Christina Sharpe’s notion of “wake work,” I argue that the bobbing breadfruit specimens perform a wake for those who have perished in the waters of the Atlantic and the plantations of the West Indies as the plants wake up to the process of their commodification and absorption into the plantation system. For Walcott, the trajectory of the breadfruit also reflects the journey of his own mother after her death, so that its appearance in Saint Lucia implies not only that the plant has been successfully imported, but also that she has arrived at her ultimate destination in the afterlife. Feeding on the nutrients of her body, the breadfruit tree reincarnates the forms of its perished human and nonhuman predecessors, becoming a vegetal afterlife to the histories of colonial importation and plantation slavery.
“The Bee Lecture: How Amerindian Perspectivism Psychoanalyzed the Western Symbolic Order And its Historicity And Set A Precedent for a New Kind of Politics.”
Authors: Loayza Milton
Published: November 2022

“The Bee Lecture” is an essay/performance that attempts to make a consistent representation or sketch of Viveiros de Castro’s anthropological description of Amerindian cosmology, which he calls perspectivism, through the persona of ‘the Bee.’ Perspectivism serves as a jumping board for an exploration of performance and some of the implications that perspectivism has for our historical moment of crisis vis-à-vis climate change, mass extinction, and the violent appropriation of nature in the capitalocene (Jason Moore). Walter Benjamin’s critique of modern historicity and Jacques Lacan’s psychoanalytic concept of the Real allow for a theoretical staging of the non-human gaze as a performative challenge to the Western symbolic order. I pinpoint an equivalence, between perspectivist equivocation and the experience of transference in psychoanalysis, to argue for the need and possibility of a cure from the Western denial of nature’s gaze. I begin by locating in the language driven culture/nature duality the sign of a repression. Following Benjamin, I suggest that the avoidance of nature’s gaze is tantamount to a delusional game, called progress and/or historicity, that is disconnected from species life and a redemptive History. The theoretical conflation of the non-human, the Real, and History allows me to compare Western and Amerindian metaphysics and contrast their approach to the (Lacanian) Real. I conclude that a perspectivist metaphysics of becoming with the Other as one approaches the Real, is a political alternative that can end the impasse of the Western political and historicist transcendence of nature.
Won’t You be My Neighbor? – Corporate Discourse, Formations of Community, and Fracking Above the Marcellus Shale
Authors: Grobe Zachary
Published: November 2022

This article examines Earth Justice’s short documentary film ‘Dryden – The Small Town that Changed the Fracking Game’ in order to analyze the ways in which residents deployed the figure of the neighbor as part of their successful effort to prevent natural gas drilling in their community. This figure, a common trope used by the gas industry to insinuate itself into the areas it aims to exploit, is taken up by activists for the purpose of promoting a collective sense of responsibility and fostering feelings of solidarity. Though much of the discourse around fracking currently seems stuck in irresolvable debates that reduce the issue to merely scientific or economic terms, ‘Dryden’ foregrounds the social dimensions of this particular crisis. In reconsidering fracking as a crisis of community, Earth Justice’s documentary and the activists in Dryden not only establish a groundbreaking legal precedent for imposing de facto bans on fracking, but also explore ways of breaking out of the discursive gridlock. The deployment of the figure of the neighbor sheds light on new potentialities, compelling new understandings of extrafamilial relationships and collective responsibility that provide new modes of thinking otherwise in the face of what has become a stultifying debate.

Basic differences between Ukrainian and Russian political identities
Authors: Kuts Halyna Mykhaylivna
Published: November 2022

The article is devoted to identifying key differences between Ukrainian and Russian political identities. It is ascertained that the basic parameters for Ukrainian political identity are individualism, rejection of the authoritarian principle, love of freedom, etc. The idea of freedom has been long embedded in the mentality of Ukrainian people. By contrast, as regards the Russian people (Muscovites) mentality, slavish obedience has long been considered a virtue. According to eyewitnesses, Muscovites considered deception to be a proof of great intelligence. They are not ashamed of lying.

Ukrainian political identity representatives should not be expected to automatically submit to the authorities, as the reputation and legitimacy of the leader are important for them. Ukrainians can force an illegitimate official who is also acting illegally to relinquish the power.

The bearers of Russia’s political identity are dominated by the need for a supreme leader who will make all important decisions on his own. This state of Russian political culture, where decision-making is delegated only to rulers, and the role of the population is to implement these decisions, is determined by long-standing practices of authoritarianism. Atomization, that is, the disunity of society, is one of the dominant features of Russia’s political identity nowadays. Due to the atomization of society and people being unable to trust each other, all sorts of significant protests or rallies in Russia are impossible.

Operationalizing the Future of Work to Measure Job Susceptibility
Authors: Isabirye Naomi , Twinomurinzi Hossana , Rammitlwa Trevor
Published: November 2022

This paper focuses on operationalizing the diverse discourses on the Future of Work (FoW) into a research model and instrument to measure the impact on job susceptibility in any given sector. Over the last few decades, the central focus in the discourse of the FoW has mainly been on how technological advancements have substituted jobs and skilled labor through the simplification of tasks. This has been at the expense of other non-technological factors that influence the FoW. The discourse on the FoW has also been difficult to operationalize with most of it being theoretical and conjectural. The paper adopts an abductive methodology, making use of a critical literature review and Santana and Cobo’s (2020) bibliometric review of the FoW. The resultant FoW model and instrument enable the measurement of job susceptibility in any sector and are useful for operationalizing the highly abstract and theoretical concept of the FoW. While the primary trigger for the FoW is innovative technological advancement, the discourse has often ignored the equally important and complementary political, social and economic forces that accompany any industrial revolution. The FoW model and instrument have considerable implications for individuals and organizations as they present a clearer picture of the job risks and opportunities available for skills development. The instrument, subject to empirical validation, holds potential to provide a more holistic projection about the impact of future industrial revolutions as they unfold. The FoW instrument can be used to measure job susceptibility in any sector. The recommendations from each sector can be used to plan and respond to social, political and economic changes affecting work that is affected by technological advancements. The instrument enables relevant stakeholders, policy makers and decision makers to better understand future prospects in different fields in order to plan and prepare workforces accordingly. It also means that society can better prepare and avoid unnecessary displacement of workers. The paper is exploratory and future work will involve the empirical validation of the research model and instrument.
SYMMETRY BREAKING IS THE PHYSICAL BASIS FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF "USEFUL WORK" BY BIOLOGICAL MOLECULAR MACHINES
Authors: Tverdislov V.
Published: November 2022

The physical basis for the functioning of living systems are molecular machines. The performance of "useful work" is the essence of their biological functions. Molecular machines are chiral hierarchically organized devices (constructions). They cyclically transform the form of energy by changing or switching symmetries in its chiral structural elements, which just realize the selected “quasi-mechanical” degrees of freedom in them. The phenomenon of chirality allows the formation of discrete chirally sign-alternating hierarchies of structures in macromolecular machines in the process of folding: starting from the level of asymmetric carbon in deoxyribose and amino acids. Previously, we have identified and analyzed the tendency of alternation of the sign of chirality of the intramolecular structural levels D-L-D-L for DNA and L-D-L-D for proteins. Helicity and superhelicity of intramolecular and supramolecular structures are also manifestations of chirality. Also, within the framework of the developed ideas, the chiral splitting of the properties of the elements of the structures ensures the unidirectional movement of machines along the energy cycle due to the nonlinear valve properties of the spiral structures. Spiral structures can serve as asymmetric, non-linear, mechanical, including switching, structural elements of molecular machines (like a ratchet-pawl device) in terms of rotational degrees of freedom.
THE EPITHELIAL TUMOR METABOLISM FEATURES DURING ITS MESENCHYMAL TRANSITION
Authors: Bakurova E.
Published: November 2022

The epithelial tumors of various localizations are capable of producing reactive oxygen species that stimulate their epithelial-mesenchymal transformation. For tumors of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), gastric and intestinal adenocarcinomas (GIAC) their metabolic heterogeneity was established. By the results of analysis in morphologically homogeneous tumors of the same localization we detected clusters of tumors characterized by increased activity of xanthine oxidase, superoxide dismutase, decreased activity of glutathione peroxidase (negative relation with pathology (ρ = -0,465, p < 0,05)). Thus, glutathione peroxidase activity was minimal in the second GIAC cluster, 1.4-fold lower, and 1.8-fold lower in their first cluster than in NSCLC tumors of the corresponding clusters. In the second NSCLC cluster, it was 1.5-fold lower than in their first cluster. Against this background, superoxide dismutase activity in tumors of different localizations included in the second clusters, on the contrary, increased 2-fold in NSCLC and 1.7-fold in GIAC, respectively. It leads to increased production of hydrogen peroxide in the tumor. Increase of adenosine deaminase activity detected (positive strong correlation (Spearman rank correlation coefficient ρ = 0,805, p < 0.01)) may be accompanied by a decrease of adenosine levels and its regulatory effects preventing tumor aggressive properties. Correlation of enzymatic activity with pathology was established. In different localization tumors the possibility of metabolic stimulation of tumor epithelial-mesenchymal transformation was revealed.
COMPARATIVE STUDY ON MORPHOMETRICS OF MICROALGAE OF THE GENUS DUNALIELLA FROM HYPERSALTED LAKES OF CRIMEA
Authors: Shapovalova V. , Evstigneyev V. , Gadzhi A. , Lantushenko A.
Published: November 2022

Genus of microalgae Dunaliella includes a large number of species greatly differing by its product potential, but being similar by general physical appearance. In fact, different Dunaliella species differ much by cell shape and size. The algae cell can be ellipsoid, ovoid, almost spherical, pear-shaped or fusiform. Cell size is variable even within a species, and differences are related to growth conditions, such as the amount of nutrients, light intensity, and salt concentration. Morphometric and phylogenetic analyses are necessary to identify the taxonomic status of different species of microalgae of the genus Dunaliella. The aim of the work is a morphometric analysis of wild strains of microalgae of the genus Dunaliella from hypersalted lakes of the Crimea: Sasyk-Sivash, Saki, Moynak and Ajigol. With the help of the FlowCam 8400 visualizing flow cytometer, four populations were studied, about 10 thousand cells were analyzed in each, 8 morphological parameters were evaluated. The results were processed using a program for statistical data processing R. To assess the degree of separability of D. salina cells and to construct the corresponding discriminating function, the method of linear discriminant analysis was used. Applying a step-by-step algorithm for constructing a discriminant function, an optimal set of the most indicative morphometric characteristics sufficient to divide a set of cells into groups according to their belonging to a particular reservoir was established.

Arte y sociedad en la Nueva España
Authors: Vergara Hernández Arturo
Published: November 2022

Este libro fue concebido originalmente para dar continuidad al texto El pecado en la Nueva España (UAEH, 2012), realizado en ocasión de la magna exposición homónima que se presentó en varios importantes escenarios nacionales, entre ellos la Galería Casa Grande de la Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Hidalgo, en Mineral del Monte, de agosto a noviembre de 2012. Arte y sociedad en la Nueva España es un trabajo colaborativo de investigadores adscritos a la Red de Investigación en Arte e Historia Religiosa Novohispana, que trata diferentes temáticas más allá del tópico del pecado, relacionadas con el periodo de 300 años de dominación española en nuestro país, que si bien fue un dilatado escenario espacio-temporal de encuentros y desencuentros y constituyó la base sobre la que se construyó nuestra nación mestiza, representa un universo poco conocido en muchos aspectos, tanto de la vida cotidiana como de los grandes procesos sociales.

La Reserva de la Biosfera Barranca de Metztitlán es el área natural protegida más grande del estado de Hidalgo, con una extensión de 96,043 ha; sin embargo, ocupa apenas 4.6% del territorio del estado. La reserva protege un complejo de barrancas profundas y escarpadas que generan diversas variantes climáticas y un ambiente marcadamente heterogéneo. Lo anterior propicia el desarrollo de diferentes tipos de vegetación, lo que a su vez permite que habiten en ella 75 especies de mamíferos silvestres (agrupados en siete órdenes, 19 familias y 54 géneros), que representan más de la mitad de las que existen en Hidalgo (51.4%).
TEXTILE TECHNOLOGY OF MEITEI COMMUNITY AND ITS ASSOCIATED BELIEF SYSTEMS
Authors: Sapha Wangam Apanthoi M Yumnam
Published: November 2022

The present paper aims to understand the textile tradition in relation to its technology and associated beliefs of the Meitei community of Manipur. Technology not only means understanding raw materials, tools/implements, and processes of the technological system, but it also incorporates the psyche of the craftsmen and cultural values. Textile carries the cultural knowledge and ideological perception embedded in the community's social, economic, and political structures. Moreover, the tangible and intangible dimensions of technology reflect the collective Meitei folklife. Meitei traditional technology shapes not only the communal identity but also holds their social norms, values, belief systems, and gender identity. An account of ethnographic study has been approached to understand the values, norms, beliefs, and worldview of the Meitei community employing various tools and methods like an interview, focus group, and observation method. Therefore, the paper tries to study textile technology to understand the community's cultural expressive behavior.
L’identité féminine au croisement des cultures et des générations dans Entre-deux Je: Algérienne? Française? Comment choisir… de Souâd Belhaddad
Authors: Boyer Barbara
Published: November 2022

Le phénomène postcolonial d’hybridation culturelle entre la France et le Maghreb a définitivement changé le discours porté sur le concept d’intégration nationale. Prenant part aux débats contemporains sur les passions politiques que suscitent les jeunes d’origine maghrébine en France, l’œuvre de Souad Belhaddad ouvre des pistes de réflexions fertiles sur l’identité féminine au croisement des cultures et des générations. Les manipulations discursives déployées par le récit autobiographique offrent des perspectives qui renversent le fondement même des pensées hégémoniques, des structures de domination, et des paradigmes racistes internalisés non seulement par la société française, mais aussi et avant tout par la communauté maghrébine qui reproduit à l’intérieur du cercle familial l’oppression exercée à l’extérieur. Les mécanismes de résistance à ces formes d’aliénation laissent deviner une nouvelle vision de la place occupée par les femmes dans la mixité franco-maghrébine, mais aussi dans la littérature.

On the Planarity of Certain Dembowski-Ostrom Polynomials
Authors: AKSOY Zehra , KIRLAR Barış Bülent
Published: November 2022

Planar mappings, defined by Dembowski and Ostrom, are identified as a means to construct projective planes. Then, many important applications of planar mappings appear in different fields such as cryptography and coding theory. In this paper, we provide sufficient and necessary conditions for the planarity of certain Dembowski-Ostrom polynomials over the finite field extension of degree three with odd characteristic. In particular, we completely determine the coefficients of the given Dembowski-Ostrom polynomials to be planar.

Synthesis and Characterization of Sb+5/Mg+2 Cosubstituted In2O3 Transparent Conductive Oxides by Solid State Reaction Method at Different Temperatures
Authors: SEDEFOĞLU Nazmi , ŞAHİN Ayşenur
Published: November 2022

In modern technology, transparent conductive oxides play a critical role. One of the most popular transparent conductive oxides is indium tin oxide. However, due to its scarcity, indium is a costly metal. In this study, high temperature solid state reactions method was used to synthesize Sb+5/Mg+2 cosubstituted In2O3 transparent conductive oxide materials (Mg2X/3In2-XSbX/3O3 named MISO). By decreasing the indium ratio and substituting Sb+5/Mg+2, transparent conductive oxides with low costs were produced in this work, and the influence of the proportion of substituted material on the structural, electrical, and optical properties of indium oxide was examined with XRD, Hall measurement system and UV-Vis spectrometer respectively. The samples were prepared as powder and pellet at 1250 °C and 1350 °C temperatures. It was observed that samples crystallize in bixbyite structure. The band gaps of MISO samples produced at 1350 °C were found to be lower than those synthesized at 1250 °C. Electrical analyzes with four-point probes showed that the materials have n-type electrical conductivity.

A educação ambiental, no processo de gestão ambiental pública, possui suas bases direcionadas para as comunidades em estágio de vulnerabilidade socioambiental, em especial as que habitam os biomas: Pantanal, Caatinga, Cerrado e a Amazônia, considerados as últimas fronteiras de implantação
do agronegócio, exploração madeireira e mineração no solo brasileiro. É nesse contexto que apresentamos uma análise sobre as práticas da educação ambiental no Manejo Integrado do Fogo no âmbito do Programa de Brigadas Federais do Prevfogo/Ibama, a partir das dimensões de análise do Sistema
MonitoraEA. Tal análise traz à luz a cultura local e sua relação ancestral com o fogo, o conjunto dos seus significados, as necessidades e impactos socioeconômicos trazidos pela realidade dos incêndios florestais, uma vez que busca, em conjunto com a comunidade, compreender essas interações em sua cultura, em sua prática cotidiana e, com o apoio técnico, mediar a apropriação do tema fogo e como
melhor abordá-lo em seu território. Desta forma, as ações de prevenção são realizadas por meio de oficinas de educação ambiental, com o uso de metodologias participativas, promovendo o protagonismo desses atores comunitários, junto a outros atores institucionais, buscando assim uma redução da vulnerabilidade social em que se encontram.
Neglected percutaneous rod extrusion following posterior occipitocervical instrumentation: a case report
Authors: Maximilian Reinhold , Johannes Bonacker , Tobias Driesen , Wolfgang Lehmann
Published: November 2022

Purpose: The extrusion of implant material is a rare complication but has been reported in several cases following anterior cervical spine surgery. A posterior spontaneous percutaneous rod extrusion after rigid occipitocervical (OC) instrumentation (screw and rod construct) has not been reported yet. The authors discuss potential complications after cervical spine surgery and its clinical management. Methods: This is a case report of a 56-year-old patient after posterior OC spine surgery with initially unobserved implant failure and posterior percutaneous rod extrusion. The implant failure with a missing rod has been documented 4 years later during a routine follow-up visit. Results: At the four-year follow-up, the asymptomatic patient presented with a stable occipitocervical junction and an improved range of motion after generalized sepsis with an epidural spinal abscess, decompression and posterior OC instrumentation. A computed tomography scan of the implant failure of a broken rod was noticed two years postoperatively. The patient failed to return to the clinic. For years postoperatively he returned to the clinic and the broken rod could not be detectable in-situ on the X-rays anymore. Conclusion: The posterior percutaneous rod extrusion following an OC instrumentation not noticed by the patient, is a very rare complication that has not been described in the literature yet. Once seen back in the clinic, the patient unexpectedly reported an improved ROM without neck pain. Usually, revision surgery or implant removal is recommended if an implant failure is documented.

Декарбонизация экономического развития: вызовы и перспективы для России
Authors: Цветков В.А. , Тулупов А.С.
Published: November 2022

Рассматриваются возможности развития национальной экономической системы в современных условиях, характеризующихся, с одной стороны, ужесточением экологических требований и введением углеродного налога, снижением конкурентоспособности отечественной продукции и общим повышением мировых цен вследствие масштабных вложений в процесс декарбонизации. С другой – санкционными ограничениями и отказом западных стран от покупки российских традиционных энергетических ресурсов, также сопровождающихся ценовой разбалансированностью. Показана важность включения российской экономики в мировой процесс декарбонизации. При этом необходимо диверсифицировать существующие энергетические мощности с учетом внутреннего потребления, а также запросов стран, развитие которых все еще опирается на традиционные энергоресурсы.

Objective We aimed to determine the status of depression and its related factors among adult Koreans during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak.Methods We used data from the 2020 Korea Community Health Survey (KCHS). We assessed depressive feelings and symptoms using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9 ≥10). In addition, we assessed general and COVID-19–related characteristics, including isolation due to and concerns about COVID-19. We analyzed the data using chi-square tests and multiple logistic regression analyses.Results The rates of depressive feelings and symptoms were 5.9% and 2.9%, respectively. Of the adult respondents, 68.5% were concerned about COVID-19, while 75.9% were concerned about economic harm due to COVID-19. The adjusted odds ratios for depressive symptoms assessed using the PHQ-9 were significantly high among women responders, adults aged 19–44 years, low-income households, those who experienced COVID-19–related symptoms, and those concerned about death due to COVID-19 and economic harm due to COVID-19. Similar results were obtained for depressive feeling.Conclusion Concerns related to COVID-19 infection are related to depression. This suggests that COVID-19 significantly affects mental health. Therefore, during public health crises, such as new communicable diseases, mental health and the incidence of the infectious disease require assessment and monitoring.
Dinámicas del crimen organizado en Morelos
Authors: Macleod Morna
Published: November 2022

Este artículo explora la manera en que el crimen organizado y la violencia han crecido en Morelos, particularmente en el oriente del estado. Mediante el análisis del actuar de tres líderes de carteles que operan en la entidad se busca entender sus dinámicas y lógicas. A través del análisis de sus semejanzas y diferencias se puede contribuir al entendimiento global de lo que sucede en otras partes de Morelos y otras entidades de la República mexicana, bajo el supuesto de que sólo se puede entender a profundidad el actuar del crimen organizado desde una perspectiva regional. Se sostiene que el crimen organizado, la impunidad, la corrupción y la colusión de las fuerzas de seguridad y justicia, así como la connivencia de los partidos políticos, fomentan diversas formas de violencia cotidiana que están afligiendo a la población morelense.

The 1998 reform has sparked new hope for the freedom of opinion and expression. The accompanying rhetoric fuels an encouraging situation for the existence of the opposition. This study analyses the dynamics of the opposition in the post-2019 presidential election. This article describes the existence of the opposition, which comprises two political parties at the government level) and three mass organizations at the community level, as well as evaluates several policies. By using the qualitative method, the primary data was gathered through interviews with several opposition figures and secondary data through documents, scientific articles, and media publications related to the agenda and political attitudes of the opposition parties. This study concludes that the drive to stand in opposition to political parties is not composed to single reason. Instead, this article contends that the motivation for standing in opposition is to serve the role of checks and balances

Objectives: Purpose of this narrative review is to compare, the latest findings about ectopic pregnancy (EP) reporting pathogenetic hypothesis, common and uncommon symptoms, diagnostic work-up, treatment alternatives. EP is a pathological condition characterized by an abnormal blastocyst implant at any site apart from uterine cavity. Dealing with pathogenesis we can recognize many factors: hormonal imbalance, post infective or mechanical induced defects of the tube, assisted reproduction techniques. This condition has aroused interest for its capacity to evolve instantly in a life-threatening condition, needing an early diagnosis and an urgent surgical solution. Mechanism: A comprehensive literature research of recent articles has been performed. Researches for relevant data were conducted utilizing multiple databases, including PubMed, SCOPUS and Ovid. Searches included combinations of the key terms: tubal pregnancy, cervical pregnancy, cesarean scar pregnancy, ‘twin and ectopic pregnancy’, ‘twin and tubal pregnancy’, ‘twin heterotopic pregnancy’, ‘laparoscopy and twin pregnancy’, ‘laparoscopy and tubal pregnancy’, ‘surgery and pregnancy’, ‘surgery and ectopic’, ‘surgery and twin tubal pregnancy’, “methotrexate and twin pregnancy ‘cornual pregnancy’ ”. Findings in brief: EP is frequently located in the salpinges but may also occur in many other sites like uterine horns, cervix, ovaries, cesarean scar or in splanchnic organs. Typical signs and symptoms of EP usually consist of pelvic pain, vaginal bleeding or sudden amenorrhea. Beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (b-hCG) dosages are fundamental tools for diagnosis of the early pregnancy whether is normal or not, always considering tubal pregnancy a possible event. Imaging diagnostic tools are described in our review, Ultrasound, Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), Computed Tomography (CT) are the main options. When the serum b-hCG is positive but at ultrasound examination of pregnancy cannot be found, physician must define this condition as a pregnancy of unknown location (PUL). In this literature-based review we found three therapeutic solutions: expectant, medical or surgical management. Expectant strategy consists of strictly monitoring b-hCG values with no pharmacological or surgical intervention. Methotrexate administration following therapeutic schemes is a cost-effective solution and keeps patient away from surgical risks. Surgery maintains a key role in treatment choice considering that is the only one available in emergency scenario. Conclusions: EP is a diagnostic challenge for the physician, therapy choice is a careful and difficult decision that must be always individualized to ensure patient life uppermost and also future fertility desire.
Using Event-Related Potentials (ERP) to identify the purchase intention of a consumer for familiar brands

Several neurological processes are undergoing on a conscious and subconscious level every time a consumer likes or dislikes a product. There is presently significant research in Consumer Neuroscience based on consumer behaviour and understanding of these processes. In this study, we have used Electroencephalography (EEG) and Event-Related Potentials (ERP) to capture consumer responses to highly familiar product images. EEG analysed from the 27 participants was used to extract P1, N1, P300, N400 and Late Posterior components. The analysis showed that the early ERP components viz., P1, N1 and P300 can differentiate between consumer liking and disliking of products. In contrast, the late ERP components N400 and Late Posterior components could not differentiate in the highly familiar product category. The results indicate that after continuous exposure, consumer preference towards highly-familiar products occurs as a part of automatic, unconscious mental processes irrespective of the product properties. Further research in this direction can test for the transference of consumer preference: from a conscious mental process to a subconscious mental process due to excessive and continuous product exposure and marketing repetition. Our study demonstrates that consumer behaviour in response to highly-familiar products can be classified using early ERP components only.

Developmental dyslexia is characterized by reading difficulty and is known to be associated with atypical brain functions. One neuropsychological theory of dyslexia posits that dyslexia reflects a deficit in procedural memory system, which supports multiple forms of implicit learning, acquisition of knowledge without conscious awareness or intention. Here we examined multiple forms of procedural-learning related tasks in adults with developmental dyslexia and typically-reading adults. Adults with dyslexia exhibited typical learning on two skill-learning tasks -- mirror tracing and rotary pursuit -- that have been well-established as reflecting purely procedural memory and dependent on basal ganglia and cerebellar structures. They also exhibited typical statistical learning for visual material, but impaired statistical learning for auditory material. Auditory statistical learning proficiency correlated positively with single-word reading (decoding) performance across all participants and within the group with dyslexia, linking a major difficulty in dyslexia with impaired auditory statistical learning. These findings dissociate multiple forms of procedural memory that are intact in dyslexia from a specific impairment in auditory statistical learning that is associated with reading difficulty.
