Authors: Vincent A Onodugo , Stanley C Nwoji
Published: January 2022

Many scholars from the developing world argue that globalization is a weapon of imperialism used to perpetuate the income and welfare gap between developing and developed countries. This study joins an emerging stream of studies calling for a holistic re-examination of the impact of globalization on developing countries to understand both the positive and negative contributions instead of have a one-sided view of globalization. Employing a quantitative design with a survey strategy, data for this study was collected from 130 human resources personnel across six multinational firms spanning: oil, banking, and manufacturing sectors of the Nigerian economy. Inferential analysis of collected data found significant positive contributions of globalization towards personnel training and development. In particular, findings show that globalization has increased the frequency and methods of trainings, increased use of e-trainings and certifications, and uniform design of training programmes across the subsidiaries of MNCs globally. All these were found to reduce the physical incidence of personnel going abroad to study reducing both brain-drain and expenses to domestic companies and governments.

Published: January 2022

This article presents research results of the chemical composition, physical and chemical properties and biotechnological potential of dietary fiber concentrates (DFCs) obtained from secondary raw materials for the production of carrot and pumpkin juices.It has been established that DFCs, along with dietary fibers (cellulose, hemicellulose, pectin, lignin), contain soluble sugars, nitrogenous substances and carotenoids, which determine their physiological activity and technological properties when used in dairy products fermented with probiotics.The effect of DFCs on the fermentation kinetics of dairy-vegetable mixtures with a starter containing lacto-, bifidobacteria and propionic acid microorganisms was studied. The optimal concentration and the degree of dispersion of carrot and pumpkin DFCs was determined. The findings can be used to ensureoptimal intensification of the fermentation process and the production of probiotic fermented milk drinks with a pleasant taste.

Authors: Bliznyuk Ulyana , Chulikova Natalya , Malyuga Anna
Published: January 2022

Crops, especially potatoes, are prone to a wide range of fungal, viral and bacterial diseases, including black scurf caused by Rhizoctoniasolani. This study focused on the radiation treatment of the phytopathogenic fungus RhizoctoniasolaniKuhn, grown from sclerotium irradiated with 1 MeV electrons in the dose range from 20 to 4500 Gy. The doses absorbed by the sclerotia were determined using computer simulation. The growth of the fungus samples was monitored after 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours from the time of seeding. It was found that the dependence of the radial growth velocity of R. solani on the time after irradiation with doses ranging from 20to 1800 Gywas nonlinear. Irradiation at a dose over 4500 Gyled to complete suppression of the germination of R. solani sclerotia.

White-rot fungi isa source of a great variety of oxidative and hydrolytic enzymes suitable for biotechnological applications, e.g. in pulp and paper, textile and food industries, bioethanol production, degradation of recalcitrant environmental pollutants,and others. Steccherinumochraceum is a xylotrophicwhite-rot basidiomycetethat can be found in variousclimatic zones on different woody substrates (mostly well decayed). For this research, seventeenstrains of S. ochraceumwere collected in different regions of Russia from various wood substrates (aspen, alder, oak, hazel, birch and willow). Phylogeneticanalyseswere performedbasedon the nucleotide sequences of ITS1, ITS2, 5.8S rRNA, 28S rRNA, β-tubulin and tef1.Oxidaseandcellulaseactivitieswereassessedbyplate-tests with ABTS and CMC. Forevaluation of biodegradation potential,solid state fermentation on alder and pine sawdust wasperformed. Weightanddensitylossaswellas the C:Nratioweremeasuredafter 90 days of cultivation.All S. ochraceum strains exhibited high oxidative activity towards ABTS, indicating secretion of oxidative enzymes (i.e. laccases and class II peroxidases). Cellulase activity was medium or low for most strains and in some strains – absent. Allstrainswereabletodegradealderandpinesawdust. There was no correlation between the enzymatic activity, biodegradation potential and geographic origin of S. ochraceum strains. However, S. ochraceum strains isolated from the same wood substrates exhibited similar characteristics in most cases. Strain LE-BIN 3398 was the most effective for degrading both alder and pine sawdust and could be regarded as a promising source of oxidative enzymes for biotechnology.

The Possibility of Using Endophytic Micromycetes for Increasing Plant Metal Resistance
Authors: Bukharina Irina , Islamova Nadezhda
Published: January 2022

The aim of this research was to study the effect of inoculation with the Cylindrocarpon magnusianum endotrophic micromycete on the physiological and biochemical parameters of tomato test plants under the action of heavy metal salts. The plants were inoculated with the fungus culture (control population) and populations of this fungus preliminarily adapted to the action of the stress factor. Then, inoculated plants were grown under control conditions and on substrates with different concentrations of heavy metal salts (zinc, copper, lead and chromium). After the plants were inoculated with the control population of the C. magnusianum fungus, a stimulating effect increasing the plants’ resistance to the action of the heavy metal salts was not detected. When the plants were inoculated with adapted populations of the C. magnusianum fungus, adaptive reactions of the plants associated with the content of photosynthetic pigments in the leaves and the formation of plant biomass were significantly manifested. Under these conditions, a more intense development of fungal infection in plant roots was observed in contrast to the use of the control fungal population. These findings therefore demonstrated an effective partnership between the C. magnusianum fungus and the root system of plants under extreme conditions for plant life.

The Feasibility of Using Agarophyte Processing Waste
Authors: Ignatova Tatiana A. , Strokova Nataliya G. , Roshchina Anna N.
Published: January 2022

When agarophytes are processed, 16-89% algal waste (AW) is formed. Due to the high content of minerals in this waste and the presence of proteins that are resistant to the action of proteolytic enzymes, such AW is mainly used in the production of feed for farm animals. The significant content of polysaccharides in dry AW indicates that it could be used as a raw material for the production of dietary fiber (DF). Due to the difference in the chemical composition of AW depending on the type of red algae, different approaches for its deproteinization have been used. Thus, a 3% alkali solution should be used for the deproteinization of algal waste from the red algae Gracilaria, a 0.5% alkali solution for GelidiumAW, and a 1% sodium carbonate solution for A. plicataAW.The duration of the deproteinization process is 30 min at a temperature of 97±2 ∘C for all types of AW. In this study, functional and technological solutions of DF from AW were developed. The results showed that their water binding capacity was 6-22 g of water per 1 g of the preparation, the fat binding capacity was 1.6-3.3 g of fat per 1 g of the preparation, and the swelling capacity was 46-312% depending on the type of red algae.The obtained DF was used in the production of minced fish food products of the ‘fish sticks’ type, based on minced fish and consisting of cod and pink salmon. The study of the chemical composition and calorie content of the developed food product showed the possibility of its use in dietary nutrition.

Published: January 2022

The aim of this research was to study the biochemical properties of a new protein-rich feed additive produced by the short-term intense thermal treatment and subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis of the wastes of poultry slaughter and primary processing (feathers and fluff). It was found that this feather-based fermented feed additive contained high amounts of crude protein (86.52%); and the content of easily digestible low-molecular peptides in the additive was 9% higher compared to fishmeal. The amino acid profiles of the additive and fishmeal were compared. The effectiveness of substituting the additive for fishmeal in the diet of broiler chicks was demonstrated by the in vivoexperiments. The results showed that the digestibility of the dietary nutrients was higher in broilers that were fed the new additive compared to those fed fishmeal, which resulted in higher meat productivity: the average daily weight gains in additive-fed broilers was 3.82% higher (p <0.01) compared to fishmeal-fed control broilers, the dressing was 1.4%higher, the muscle in the carcass was 2.1% higher, and the feed conversion ratio was 3.57%lower. The sensory evaluation scores of the meat and broth were also higher in the additive-fed broilers.

Published: January 2022

The ability of actinobacteria of the genus Rhodococcus to transform oleanolic acid (OA), a plant pentacyclic triterpenoid, was shown for the first time using bioresources of the Regional Specialized Collection of AlkanotrophicMicroorganisms (IEGM; WDCM #768;www.iegmcol.ru). The most promising strains (R.opacus IEGM 488 and R.rhodochrousIEGM 285) were selected, and these catalyzed80% bioconversion of OA (0.5 g/L) in the presence of n-hexadecane (0.1% v/v) for seven days. The process of OA bioconversion was accompanied by a gradual decrease in the culture medium pH. Adaptive responses of bacterial cells to the OA effects included the formation of compact cellular aggregates, a marked change in the surface-to-volume ratio of cells, and a significant increase in the Zeta potential values. The results demonstrated that the process of OA bioconversion was catalyzed by membrane-bound enzyme complexes. Participation of cytochrome P450-dependent monooxygenases in the oxidation of the OA moleculewas confirmedusing specific inhibitors. The obtained data expand our knowledge on the catalytic activity of actinobacteria of the genus Rhodococcus and their possible use as biocatalysts for the bioconversion of complex hydrophobic compounds. The results can also be used inthe searchfor promising OA derivatives to be used in the synthesis of biologically active agents.

Authors: Kharenko Elena N. , Belomyttseva Ekaterina S.
Published: January 2022

Elderly people frequently experience a decrease in body weight, associated primarily with a decrease in protein intake, for a variety of reasons, including social factors. In this regard, the consumption of liquid food rations enriched with watersoluble protein hydrolysates is the simplest solution to the problem of providing people with sufficient protein intake. Development of methods for the manufacture of fish and cereal-based products is promising due to the possibility to simulate the composition of a certain nutritional compound for functional consumption by various population groups. Our task was to substantiate the parameters and components for creating a product for gerodietic use. The development of the technology included the following stages: preparation of ingredients, such as cereal filler, by-products from herring cutting, natural food coloring, vegetable oil, table salt and water; their mixing; heat treatment; cooling and packaging. The finished product has a light orange color, characteristic of natural pollock roe, and a pleasant fishy smell; the ”fish eggs” are easily separated from each other. New types of gerodietic products make it possible to increase the nutritional and biological value of the diet of the elderly, as well as to inhibit the development of age-related pathological changes.

This study aimed to examine the regularities of the regenerationprocesses of haploid plants, the dependence of in vitro microspore morphogenesis in anther culture on optimization factors, and their efficiency in F1 hybrids of T. aestivumof different ecological and geographicorigin. It was found that heterosis contributed to an increased yield of haploid chlorophyll-bearing regenerants from hybrids obtained from the crossing of parental forms with different responsiveness to androclinia. Results were obtained for the complex optimization of the androgenesis method for the in vitro anther culture of T. aestivum, in order to create diploidized haploid lines (DHL) regardless of the influence of the genotype. The agroecological properties for a complex of economically useful traits were also assessed. DHLs were created that combined high yield (5.1-6.8 t / ha) with lodging resistance (straw height – 60-80 cm) and consistently high grain quality; these were characterized by increased resistance to major leaf diseases in comparison with the standard variety in the conditions of the Central Economic Region of the Non-Black Earth Zone of the Russian Federation.

Published: January 2022

Chitosan is a well-known subjectof researchbecause of its beneficial properties, including its antibacterial and fungicidal activity, as well as its effect on plant physiology. One of the maindifficulties in agricultural chitosan implementation is the poor solubility of high molecular chitosan in water. Reducing themolecular weight of chitosan by acid hydrolysis increases its solubility. This research studied the effect of chitosan hydrolysate on the germination and development ofSolanum lycopersicum L. plants. Theeffects of chitosan hydrolysate on seed germination, shoot development in the first week of development and in the first month of development were evaluated. According to the results, high concentrations of chitosan hydrolysate completely inhibited seed germination. However, short-term treatment by high concentrations of chitosan hydrolysate stimulatedthe development of seedlings, leading to substantially longerroots. Regular root application of high concentrations of chitosan hydrolysate inhibited plant development.

Authors: Nsiah Richmond , Takramah Wisdom , Anum-Doku Solomon , Avagu Richard , Nyarko Dominic
Published: January 2022

Background: Stillbirths and neonatal deaths when poorly documented or collated, negatively affect the quality of decision and interventions. This study sought to assess the quality of routine neonatal mortalities and stillbirth records in health facilities and propose interventions to improve the data quality gaps.

Method: Descriptive cross-sectional study was employed. This study was carried out at three (3) purposively selected health facilities in Offinso North district. Stillbirths and neonatal deaths recorded in registers from 2015 to 2017, were recounted and compared with monthly aggregated data and District Health Information Management System 2 (DHIMS 2) data using a self-developed Excel Data Quality Assessment Tool (DQS).  An observational checklist was used to collect primary data on completeness and availability. Accuracy ratio (verification factor), discrepancy rate, percentage availability and completeness of stillbirths and neonatal mortality data were computed using the DQS tool.

Findings: The results showed high discrepancy rate of stillbirth data recorded in registers compared with monthly aggregated reports (12.5%), and monthly aggregated reports compared with DHIMS 2 (13.5%). Neonatal mortalities data were under-reported in monthly aggregated reports, but over-reported in DHIMS 2. Overall data completeness was about 84.6%, but only 68.5% of submitted reports were supervised by facility in-charges. Delivery and admission registers availability were 100% and 83.3% respectively.

Conclusion: Quality of stillbirths and neonatal mortality data in the district is generally encouraging, but are not reliable for decision-making. Routine data quality audit is needed to reduce high discrepancies in stillbirth and neonatal mortality data in the district.

Published: January 2022

A cerveja é uma das bebidas fermentadas mais antigas, produzidas pelo homem. A prática iniciou-se mesmo sem o conhecimento do processo fermentativo em si. Atualmente as pesquisas nesse âmbito estão se difundindo rapidamente e a produção de cervejas artesanais, que tem em sua principal composição malte, água, lúpulo e levedura, vem ganhando espaço no mercado de bebidas alcoólicas. Nesse âmbito, muitos produtores visam inovar criando suas próprias cervejas, adicionando ingredientes que venham alterar suas características, tornando-as mais agradável e assim conquistando públicos para suas produções. O acréscimo de outras matérias-primas, ou a substituição do malte pelos adjuntos, pode alterar aromas, sabores e mudar o estilo da cerveja. A fim de avaliar um novo produto, a torta residual gerada pelo processo de extração do óleo da polpa do fruto da Macaúba, foi utilizada para produzir cerveja artesanal. Através da extração do óleo da polpa gerou-se uma torta residual com grande quantidade de finos. Desta forma, avaliou-se a influência desses finos no processo de produção da cerveja. Utilizou-se 25% de torta residual em substituição  ao malte. Ao final do processo de maturação quatro litros de cerveja foram submetidos a filtração através de um filtro de membrana de polipropileno e três litros não foram filtrados. Realizou-se análises organolépticas, de açúcares totais, proteínas solúveis, sólidos totais, acidez total, densidade, pH, cor, cinzas e teor alcoólico nas cervejas filtrada e não filtrada. As análises apresentaram diferenças quanto à presença de bolhas nas espumas das cervejas, indicando a presença de óleo residual advindo do processo de extração. Os teores de açúcares foram de 48,8 g/L para a cerveja não filtrada e de 45,8 g/l para a cerveja filtrada, o que indica que grande parte dos finos ficaram retidos na membrana. Para a análise de cor, a filtração influenciou causando grande diferenciação na coloração das cervejas.

Authors: AS Ahmet Kağan , PALA Arda Aybars , GÜVENÇ Orhan , YAVUZ Senol
Published: January 2022

Objectives: Serious complications are seen after cardiac surgery operations. Postoperative pneumonia is one of the most important of these complications. Some biomarkers have been examined in the prediction of mortality in special groups such as hospital-acquired pneumonia or aspiration pneumonia. In addition to parameters such as blood-urea nitrogen and albumin, the blood urea nitrogen to albumin ratio obtained by the ratio of these two parameters is also used as a mortality predictor. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effect of the blood urea nitrogen to albumin ratio at the time of diagnosis of pneumonia on mortality in patients who developed pneumonia in the early period after cardiac surgery. Methods: In this study, 138 patients who developed pneumonia in the early period after cardiac surgery were examined. Complete blood count and biochemical test results were analyzed for all patients, and differences between groups were investigated. The patients who developed in-hospital pneumonia and were discharged as survivors were classified as Group 1, and non-survivor patients were determined as Group 2. Results: Patients who did not develop in-hospital mortality were included in Group 1 (n = 105, mean age = 63.7 ± 9.2 years), and those with non-survivor were included in Group 2 (n = 33, mean age = 66.9 ± 9.6 years). At the time of diagnosis neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, C-reactive protein, blood-urea nitrogen and blood urea nitrogen to albumin ratio values were significantly higher in Group 2 (p < 0.001, p < 0.001, p = 0.004 and p < 0.001; respectively) ROC curve analysis was performed to evaluate blood urea nitrogen to albumin ratio in predicting mortality. The cut-off value of blood urea nitrogen to albumin ratio was 4.1 (Area under the curve [AUC]: 0.740, 95% CI: 0.690-0.820, p < 0.001, with sensitivity of 72.5% and specificity of 68.6%). Conclusions: In pneumonia developing after cardiac surgery, we found that the peripheral blood blood urea nitrogen to albumin ratio at the time of the first symptom in the patient has a high predictive power for the development of mortality in this particular patient group.

Published: January 2022

Background. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is frequently associated with hypertension (HTN), and about 50 % hypertensive patients have concomitant OSA. Episodes of transient upper airway obstruction affect the daily blood pressure profile, leading to nocturnal HTN. Although the general relationship between OSA and the daily blood pressure profile is known, the association between the frequency of various daily blood pressure profiles and OSA severity as well as the age-specific differences remain unknown. The aim of the study was to determine the daily blood pressure profiles in patients with HTN and OSA, depending on the OSA severity and age. Design and methods. The study included 236 HTN patients underwent treatment in the period from 2008 to 2021 years and were diagnosed with OSA by cardiorespiratory monitoring: 84 patients had mild OSA (apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) < 15 episodes/h), 46 patients — moderate OSA (15 ≤ AHI < 30 episodes/h), and 106 patients — severe OSA (AHI ≥ 30 episodes/h). The control group included 140 HTN patients without OSA. Both groups were divided into 3 age subgroups: younger than 45 years, 45–59 years and ≥ 60 years. At baseline, all patients underwent cardiorespiratory monitoring (“Kardiotekhnika‑07–3/12P”, Inkart, St Petersburg, Russia) and 24-hour blood pressure (BP) monitoring (BPLab, Nizhny Novgorod, Russia). Results. We found an association between the distribution of daily BP profiles and age, which differs from that in HTN patients without OSA. Non-dipper and night-peaker BP profiles are predominant in young and middle age. Among OSA patients, the severity of OSA was associated with the BP profiles only in the young and middleage groups. Unfavorable BP profiles (non-dipper and night-peaker) were more common in patients with severe OSA, which was not observed in elderly subgroup. In the elderly, compared to younger patients, the overdipper profile was the most common and its frequency was not associated with OSA severity. Conclusions. The study shows the relationship between the age of patients with HTN and OSA, the OSA severity and the distribution of daily BP profiles.

Objective. To assess subjective and objective sleep characteristics and urinary metanephrine levels in patients with insomnia. Design and methods. We included patients with insomnia complaints and those without sleep– related complaints (control group) 18–75 years old. Subjective evaluation of the main sleep characteristics during the last month was assessed by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality questionnaire, daytime sleepiness — by the Epworth Sleepiness Scale. For objective sleep evaluation we performed one-night polysomnography (PSG). Within 1 week after the PSG, daily urine was collected to determine the level of metaepinephrine. Results. The groups did not differ by age, mean sleep duration over the past month, number of night awakenings by the Pittsburgh Questionnaire, and level of daytime sleepiness. Sleep latency in insomnia group was 15 minutes longer than in the control group. PSG showed higher apnea-hypopnea and desaturation indices in the control group. There were no differences in daily urinary metanephrine excretion in the main and control groups. Correlation analysis showed no significant association between the metanephrine levels and the severity of somnolence and the index of periodic limb movements. Conclusions. Our analysis showed no significant differences in the daily urine metanephrine levels and the main PSG sleep characteristics among subjects with and without insomnia. Further work is required to clarify markers of insomnia and their negative health effects.

Instrumenty uszczelniające system podatkowy w praktyce orzeczniczej sądów administracyjnych
Authors: Rudowski Jan
Published: January 2022

Podejmowane przez podatników – w tym przedsiębiorców – działania mające na celu minimalizowanie obciążeń podatkowych to zjawisko powszechne i w pewnym sensie zrozumiałe. Z tych względów wprowadzane zmiany w prawie podatkowym powinny w większym stopniu uwzględniać pojawiające się zagrożenia związane z uchylaniem się od opodatkowania. Nie budzi wątpliwości, że unikanie ciężaru podatkowego stoi w sprzeczności z celami opodatkowania – ta forma unikania opodatkowania powinna i może być zwalczana. Na ile trudnym zadaniem jest proces uszczelniania systemu podatkowego tak, aby spełnione zostały wymogi konstytucyjne, zgodność z prawem unijnym oraz zasady techniki prawodawczej, dowiodły wprowadzane w ostatnim okresie zmiany prawodawcze w tym zakresie. Potwierdziły to również problemy dotyczące stosowania w praktyce orzeczniczej sądów administracyjnych najważniejszych i mających znaczenie dla całego systemy poboru podatków rozwiązań wprowadzonych do ustawy Ordynacja podatkowa, tj. klauzuli ogólnej przeciwko unikaniu opodatkowania, systemu teleinformatycznego izby rozliczeniowej (STIR) oraz informacji o schematach podatkowych (MDR). Jak dowodzi analiza dotychczasowego orzecznictwa sądów administracyjnych na tle stosowania wybranych instrumentów uszczelniających pobór podatków w Polsce, przesłanki ich zastosowania powinny każdorazowo być rozpatrywane na gruncie konkretnych okoliczności faktycznych, nie tylko pod kątem zasad praworządności i powszechności opodatkowania (art. 83–84 Konstytucji RP), ale także z uwzględnieniem zasady zaufania (art. 2 Konstytucji RP, art. 121 § 1 o.p.), która w demokratycznym państwie prawnym oznacza m.in., że postępowanie powinno być prowadzone w zaufaniu do podatnika. W orzecznictwie podkreślono ponadto, że przy wprowadzaniu tego rodzaju dolegliwych dla podatników rozwiązań w sposób szczególny należy respektować zasadę proporcjonalności przy tworzeniu prawa.

Autorzy wskazują konieczność dokonania prokonstytucyjnej wykładni normy intertemporalnej przez Radę PUO. Podkreślają, że zgodnie z praktycznie jednolitymi poglądami doktryny normy tej nie można stosować retroaktywnie. Tym samym podważają zasadność twierdzeń Rady PUO o dopuszczalności stosowania klauzuli do zdarzeń, które rozpoczęły oddziaływanie na wymiar podatku przed 16 lipca 2016 r.
Kasztelanowa lubelska Krystyna z Uhruska Sienieńska i jej testament z 2 czerwca 1639 r. Nieznana karta z dziejów i genealogii rodziny Uhrowieckich herbu Suchekomnaty w XVI i XVII wieku
Authors: Anusik Zbigniew
Published: January 2022

Krystyna Uhrowiecka h. Suchekomnaty była przedstawicielką znanej rodziny pochodzenia ruskiego osiadłej w ziemi chełmskiej. Na podstawie przebadanych źródeł można było pokusić się nie tylko o przedstawienie zarysu jej biografii, lecz także o opracowanie w zasadzie nieznanej heraldykom genealogii rodziny Uhrowieckich w XVI i pierwszej połowie XVII w. Autorowi udało się zidentyfikować rodziców, dziadów i pradziadów bohaterki studium. W artykule przedstawiono krótkie biogramy przodków i krewnych z linii męskiej Krystyny Uhrowieckiej. Jej samej poświęcono drugą część opracowania. Córka starosty chełmskiego Mikołaja, Krystyna dwukrotnie wychodziła za mąż. Po raz pierwszy za podkomorzego mielnickiego Kaspra Dembińskiego, po raz drugi zaś za Zbigniewa Sienieńskiego, kasztelana lubelskiego. Z pierwszym mężem miała córkę Franciszkę Katarzynę. Drugiemu urodziła sześcioro dzieci: synów Mikołaja, Stanisława, Zbigniewa i Tomasza oraz córki Annę i Eufrozynę. Kasztelanowa lubelska okazała się osobą bardzo zaradną i zapobiegliwą. Udało się jej zgromadzić dość znaczny majątek, który przekazała dzieciom. W dniu 2 czerwca 1639 r. sporządziła bardzo ciekawy testament, którego krytyczna edycja została załączona do prezentowanego tu tekstu. Zmarła zapewne wkrótce po podyktowaniu swojej ostatniej woli, a więc jeszcze w 1639 r.

The science of hadith, the accuracy factor (ḍabt) of memorization and notes, greatly determines the validity of the hadith, in addition to the trustworthiness factor of a narrator (râwî). The impact of such a strict application of the ḍabt, affects the attitudes and habits of hadith experts, such as the time, place, and special performance of the râwî. Its purpose is to further boost the accuracy of memorizing a hadith. For example, a narrator when narrating a hadith smile, then the act of smiling is also recorded by the student. He also imitates the style of his teacher smiling when narrating the hadith. This act is passed down from generation to generation, which is known as chain-related (musalsal) hadiths. However, the type of musalsal hadith does not automatically make the hadith ṣaḥîḥ. Even some musalsals are weak; some are even unauthentic. Indonesian hadith experts who studied in Mecca (al-ḥaramayn), participated in enlivening the narration and writing books on the musalsal hadiths. The names of Shaykh Yâsîn al-Fâdânî (Padang) and Mukhtâr Aṭârid al-Bûghûrî (Bogor) are listed as hadith experts from Indonesia, who have worked in the field of musalsal. The methodology used in this article is a qualitative method with descriptive approach. The article analyzes the hadiths in the works of the two hadith experts. The finding in this study is that the contribution of Indonesian hadith experts in the field of hadith is amazing, not only in the explanation (sharḥ) of hadith, but also in more detailed fields such as musalsal.
La vinculación en nuestros días: entre el peso de lo institucional y el paso de la pandemia
Authors: Mesmoudi Mehdi
Published: January 2022

A raíz de la pandemia, la Universidad se ha vuelto un espacio predilecto para las innovaciones sociales e institucionales donde el talento humano y la transformación digital son el insumo ideal para la revolución de nuestro tercer milenio. Este escenario de efervescencia se enmarca en las vislumbres que la Responsabilidad Social ha establecido como filosofía institucional transversal en las últimas dos décadas y que, entre otras cosas, exige un mayor protagonismo social de la Universidad en dichos cambios sociales, políticos y económicos.
Este texto trata de formular los distintos mecanismos interinstitucionales para impulsar un modelo de vinculación orientado a la RSU cuya dimensión descansa en la internacionalización, los valores interculturales, la diplomacia cultural y la innovación digital que dinamiza los vínculos que la Universidad puede establecer y fortalecer su proyección transoceánica como su papel activo en la nueva cartografía de la cooperación internacional.

Responsabilidad Social Universitaria y ciudadanía democrática: la apuesta de formación para el compromiso público con las diversidades
Authors: Stojnic Chávez Lars
Published: January 2022

El artículo analiza si la experiencia universitaria incidiría en una mayor disposición de las y los estudiantes para comprometerse con la protección de las libertades y la convivencia pública entre subjetividades diversas, aspectos claves para la convivencia democrática. Recoge la apuesta del enfoque de Responsabilidad Social Universitaria por interpelar a la universidad como institución social que aporte a la formación de ciudadanos críticos, empáticos y comprometidos. Lo desarrollado es producto del recojo de información (tanto cuantitativo, como cualitativo) sobre la experiencia en un curso de una universidad peruana y del análisis de sus estrategias de aprendizaje, orientadas a fomentar que los y las estudiantes se involucren activamente en el diseño e implementación de propuestas de reflexión-acción sobre una problemática social particular. Los resultados evidencian que el curso tendría un efecto positivo y significativo en el aumento de la disposición de las y los estudiantes para reconocer la importancia de participar públicamente en favor de la protección de derechos de minorías sociales. En esa línea, se busca aportar en la discusión sobre el carácter distintivo de la responsabilidad social en los ámbitos universitarios, particularmente con respecto al fortalecimiento de una ética pública democrática.
