Authors: Hrachova N.
Published: December 2023

The article presents the results of the “Ukrainian Literature in Comics” project created with the support of the Ukrainian Cultural Foundation. The authors of the project (project manager Nadiia Hrachova, author of scripts for the online catalog Olha Khodatska, and project creative designer Olena Cherkun) created a cultural-artistic product – an online catalog in Ukrainian and English versions, which highlights the plot of the Ukrainian historical era with the help of graphic visualization.

The results of the project “Ukrainian Literature in Comics,”  which was done during two stages (2022 and 2023), represent a new interactive study of the Ukrainian written heritage of different periods, considering modern socio-cultural and ideological challenges. Among such challenges, the current one is the development of the motivation of the younger generation to read Ukrainian fiction, the development of the interest of children and adults in reading books by Ukrainian authors as a national treasure, popularization of the Ukrainian literary heritage as a factor of the national security,  the creation of reliable interactive content for teachers-philologists, students, their parents, actually for all Ukrainians living in Ukraine and abroad. The result of the project is the creation of a cultural and artistic product for those who are interested in the Ukrainian language, literature, and culture. Furthermore, it will be included in the educational process to reformat the cultural narratives and meanings of Ukrainian society nowadays in Ukraine and abroad, where children-migrants from the temporarily occupied territories study. In the long term, this project is going to have a positive cultural and educational impact on strengthening the moral and spiritual state of Ukrainians, on the development of an individual who is able to care for the spiritual and cultural revival of the country in the post-war period, which will contribute to the unification of the world community against Russian military and cultural expansion as well.

Published: December 2023

Anomaly detection has wide applications to help people recognize false, intrusion, flaw, equipment failure, etc. In most practical scenarios, the amount of the annotated data and the trusted labels is low, resulting in poor performance of the detection. In this paper, we focus on the anomaly detection for the text type data and propose a detection network based on biological immunity for few-shot detection, by imitating the working mechanism of the immune system of biological organisms. This network enabling the protected system to distinguish the aggressive behavior of “nonself” from the legitimate behavior of “self” by embedding characters. First, it constructs episodic task sets and extracts data representations at the character level. Then, in the pretraining phase, Word2Vec is used to embed the representations. In the meta-learning phase, a dynamic prototype containing encoder, routing, and relation is designed to identify the data traffic. Compare to the mean-based prototype, the proposed prototype applies a dynamic routing algorithm that assigns different weights to samples in the support set through multiple iterations to obtain a prototype that combines the distribution of samples. The proposed method is validated on 2 real traffic datasets. The experimental results indicate that (a) the proposed anomaly detection prototype outperforms state-of-the-art few-shot techniques with 1.3% to 4.48% accuracy and 0.18% to 4.55% recall; (b) under the premise of ensuring the accuracy and recall, the number of training samples is reduced to 5 or 10; (c) ablation experiments are designed for each module, and the results show that more accurate prototypes can be obtained by using the dynamic routing algorithm.
Redox Couple Modulation in NASICON Phosphates toward High-Performance Cathodes for Na-Ion Batteries
Authors: Fan Dashan , Shen Qiuyu , Li Han , Qu Xuanhui , Jiao Lifang , Liu Yongchang
Published: December 2023

Natrium superionic conductor (NASICON)-type phosphates have aroused a great interest as cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) by virtue of their stable 3-dimensional frameworks, flexible molecular formula tunability, and superior ionic conductivity. Nevertheless, the intrinsic low electronic conductivity and relatively low theoretical specific capacity place obstacles in their way toward achieving higher electrochemical performance. In addition, only 2-electron reactions in most NASICON cathodes and poor reversibility of high-voltage redox couples severely limit their energy density. To address the above tough issues, an in-depth understanding of transition metal selection, elements ratio optimization, and Na-storage mechanism is of paramount importance. Here, this mini review summarizes the latest progresses on the NASICON-type phosphate cathodes for SIBs from the perspective of redox couple modulation. NASICON cathodes featuring high operating voltage and multielectron reactions are discussed in detail. Finally, the remaining challenges and personal outlooks based on redox couple regulation are put forward, shedding light on the designing rules for high-energy and long-durability NASICON-type phosphate cathodes for SIBs in the future.
Deep Learning–Based Channel Extrapolation and Multiuser Beamforming for RIS-aided Terahertz Massive MIMO Systems over Hybrid-Field Channels
Authors: Wang Yang , Gao Zhen , Chen Sheng , Hu Chun , Zheng Dezhi
Published: December 2023

The reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) is a promising technology for terahertz (THz) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems. However, acquiring high-dimensional channel state information (CSI) and realizing efficient active/passive beamforming for RIS are challenging owing to its cascaded channel structure and lack of signal processing units. To overcome these challenges, this study proposes a deep learning (DL)-based physical signal processing scheme for RIS-aided THz massive MIMO systems over hybrid far-near field channels wherein channel estimation with low pilot overhead and robust beamforming are implemented. Specifically, first, an end-to-end DL-based channel estimation framework that consists of pilot design, CSI feedback, subchannel estimation, and channel extrapolation is introduced. In this framework, only some RIS elements are first activated, a subsampling RIS channel is then estimated, and a DL-based extrapolation network is finally used to reconstruct the full-dimensional CSI. Next, to maximize the sum rate under imperfect CSI, a DL-based scheme is developed to simultaneously design hybrid active beamforming at the base station and passive beamforming at the RIS. Simulation results show that the proposed channel extrapolation scheme achieves better CSI reconstruction performance than conventional schemes while greatly reducing pilot overhead. Moreover, the proposed beamforming scheme outperforms conventional schemes in terms of robustness to imperfect CSI.

Published: December 2023

Ferroptosis, a nonapoptotic form of cell death, is an emerging potential therapeutic target for various diseases, including cancer. However, the role of ferroptosis in pancreatic cancer remains poorly understood. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by a poor prognosis and chemotherapy resistance, attributed to its high Kirsten rats arcomaviral oncogene homolog mutation rate and severe nutritional deficits resulting from a dense stroma. Several studies have linked rat sarcoma (RAS) mutations to ferroptosis, suggesting that inducing ferroptosis may be an effective strategy against oncogenic RAS-bearing tumors. We investigated the role of Family With Sequence Similarity 60 Member A (FAM60A) in this study, a protein closely associated with a poor prognosis and highly expressed in PDAC and tumor tissue from Kras

; Pdx1-Cre mice, in regulating ferroptosis, tumor growth, and gemcitabine sensitivity in vitro and in vivo. Our results demonstrate that FAM60A regulates 3 essential metabolic enzymes, ACSL1/4 and GPX4, to protect PDAC cells from ferroptosis. Furthermore, we found that YY1 transcriptionally regulates FAM60A expression by promoting its transcription, and the Hippo-YY1 pathway is restricted in the low-amino-acid milieu in the context of nutrient deprivation, leading to downstream suppression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor and ACSL1/4 and activation of GPX4 pathways. Importantly, FAM60A knockdown sensitized PDAC cells to gemcitabine treatment. A new understanding of FAM60A transcriptional regulation pattern in PDAC and its dual function in ferroptosis reliever and chemotherapy resistance is provided by our study. Targeting FAM60A may therefore offer a promising therapeutic approach for PDAC by simultaneously addressing 2 major features of the disease (high RAS mutation rate and tumor microenvironment nutrient deficiency) and preventing tumor cell metabolic adaptation.
Pre-Coded Inter-Satellite Routing Algorithm with Load Balancing for Mega-Constellation Networks
Authors: Zhang Chi , Chen Quan , Tang Zuping , Wei Jiaolong , Liu Gaoyang
Published: December 2023

In order to achieve global multiple seamless coverage, space-based internet usually adopts low Earth orbit (LEO) mega-constellation networks structure, which has the characteristics of high network topology dynamics, limited on-board computing and storage capacity, and uneven distribution of ground traffic. Such features may cause problems such as high transmission delay, network congestion and link interruption. Establishing a stable, efficient and balanced satellite communication link can effectively alleviate the performance of the transmission delay, load balancing, and network throughput. Taking advantage of the regularity of network topology, a pre-coded inter-satellite routing algorithm with load balancing is proposed, which includes 3 parts: (a) the routing sequence coding method and the concept of gateway satellite Service Region (GSSR) are proposed; (b) the initial routing sequence of GSSR is generated based on the maximum network flow method under the ideal situation of uniform satellite traffic distribution; (c) aiming at the uneven distribution of traffic, the Sinkhorn algorithm is used to improve the load balancing performance of inter-satellite links. Simulation results show that, for the Starlink Group-4 constellation, the proposed method can maintain a low transmission delay and improve the load balancing together with the network throughout performance with minimal hops and low time complexity.
Online English Monolingual Learner’s Dictionaries
Authors: Tomaszewska Magdalena
Published: December 2023

Due to the development of technology, well-established publishers began to provide their English Monolingual Learner's Dictionaries (MLDs) online and free of charge. Dictionaries of this type have their own history, as well as common and distinctive features. The article presents a brief outline of the subsequent stages of the development of English Monolingual Dictionaries, with special reference to MLDs available online. Also, the article includes a synthetic description of the primary and secondary components of a dictionary entry and demonstrates if these components are present or absent in three online Monolingual Learner's Dictionaries: the Cambridge Dictionary, the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English, and the Oxford Learner’s Dictionary. The article aims to characterise, compare and contrast some of the features of a typical entry in online English MLDs. Consequently, the scientific approach adopted in the analysis is a mixture of the comparative and the empirical method. Unlike previous topic-related research, the present study shows both common and distinctive features of the mentioned dictionaries and hints at their practical advantages (from the point of view of the end user).

Published: December 2023

The main aim of this article is to present a guide for integrating sustainability into university degrees with the use of Challenge-Based Learning (CBL) methodology. In order to achieve this aim, the article starts with a review of the literature on the concept of education for sustainability and the key competences required for its achievement. Secondly, we consider the need to understand the institutional context and the characteristics of the learners before designing the teaching choreography. Thirdly, in order to apply CBL in a structured approach, two models are selected and their complementarity is presented. On that basis, a guide or itinerary is devised showing the steps to be followed in order to include sustainability in the degrees using the methodology selected. This guide has been previously applied and checked at the Faculty of Economics and Business of the University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU. Finally, the difficulties encountered in its application and some questions to be further investigated are raised, due to the scarce existing experiences in the area of social sciences.

Authors: Smetanova Eva , Baranovska Andrea
Published: December 2023

The research addresses the possibility of using storytelling in developing abilities and skills of bilingual children. The ability of children to read and listen with understanding in several languages is reflected in a positive sense in the development of their personality and language characteristics. In our research, we monitored the enlargement of a vocabulary range in different languages, the use of symbolic elements of speech compared to their age, and the use of other language devices on a research sample of six children. We also focused on whether a bilingual environment helps to develop overall communication competence and how this is reflected in the formation of personality traits and characteristics. The purpose of the research was also to determine the success of the storytelling method and the selection of images depending on the cultural background and age of the children. The results were significantly influenced by the cultural knowledge of images in one language and the possibility to use creativity when not recognizing them.

EXPLORING POETICAL PECULIARITIES OF ANA BLANDIANA�S INTERVIEWS
Authors: Antofi Eugenia Simona , Oprit-Maftei Carmen
Published: December 2023

The present paper is part of a broader research project, which aims at investigating the interviews given by Ana Blandiana, who is one of the most influential contemporary Romanian poets and a well-known dissident of the dictatorial regime of the 1970s and 1980s. These interviews were collected between 2019 and 2020 and subsequently grouped into three main categories, related to poetry, prose and essays. The resulting material was published in a volume entitled �Cartea cu delfini� (The book with dolphins) in 2021. Ana Blandiana�s interviews take the form of an autobiography, which enables the poet to share her memories and thoughts on the world we live in. These dialogues of literary interest are of the utmost importance as they reveal the poet�s personality and disclose her emotions and views related to a writing career of more than 60 years.
The theoretical and methodological perspectives included in this research are related to the literary interview, which uses the techniques of storytelling and reveals insights into the interlocutor�s life, work and experiences. In addition, the research also reviews the theories of the literary discourse, with a strong focus on the linguistic beauty and poetic language of Ana Blandiana. The novelty of this study lies in investigating the particularities of her literary interviews.
THE END JUSTIFIES THE MEANS OR, WHEN TEACHERS IN THEIR PRIME (MURIEL SPARK) NEVER LET GO (KAZUO ISHIGURO) IN HARD TIMES (CHARLES DICKENS)
Authors: Necula Lidia Mihaela
Published: December 2023

Years and writing signatures apart, it would seem that Charles Dickens�s Hard Times has very little to do, if anything, with Muriel Spark�s The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie and/ or with Kazuo Ishiguro�s Never Let me Go for that matter. And yet, all of these three novels operate, in various degrees, with what seems to have always been a common life principle for many, regardless of the temporal or geographic co(n)text at hand.
Dicken�s Hard Times portrays characters who prioritize facts, figures, and material gain over the emotional and moral aspects of life. The utilitarian approach of valuing measurable outcomes and productivity above all else is presented as dehumanizing and detrimental to individuals and society. Although it does not directly pursue a utilitarian philosophy, The Prime of Miss Brodie does shed light on the complexities of personal influence and the potential consequences of actions: as a character, Miss Brodie raises questions about the ethical implications of pursuing personal ambitions at the expense of others and the limitations of an individualistic approach to achieving happiness and fulfilment. And true as it may be that Muriel Spark�s novel does not directly address utilitarianism as a philosophical concept, it is possible to analyse Miss Brodie, her actions, her beliefs as well as her impact on her students from a utilitarian perspective since the latter emphasizes the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people.
Finally, Ishiguro�s speculative Never Let Me Go presents a dystopian society where clones are created for the sole purpose of providing organ donations to others thus raising further questions about the ethics of sacrificing a few for the well-being of many, as well as the nature of humanity and the value of individual lives.
Every single one of these three novels explores utilitarian philosophies of life by looking into the aftermath entailed by the prioritizing of individuals� happiness and pleasure (on a small scale), or of societal well-being (on a large scale). Therein, readers are challenged to reflect upon the complexities and ethical dilemmas inherent in pursuing the greatest good for the greatest number.
The end justifies the means can be seen operating in various degrees and in different ways in all three texts, reflecting back the unique contexts and themes of their respective stories. Seen like this, these novels become lenses mediating ethical dilemmas, obliquely criticising societal norms or raising awareness to the consequences of sacrificing individual rights and moral considerations for the sake of societal or personal goals.
Acepções teóricas do estado totalitário e do estado de bem-estar social
Authors: Führ Jean Jeison
Published: December 2023

Algumas configurações de organização estatal que se enunciaram no século XX, como o Estado Totalitário ou o Estado de Bem-Estar Social, apresentam uma série de nuances que evitam de simplesmente amalgamá-los em um determinado recorte temporal ou geográfico. O objetivo do presente artigo é evidenciar, através de metodologia de revisão bibliográfica argumentativa, que tanto no modelo de sociedade absorvida pelo Estado (Estado Totalitário), quanto no modelo de Estado provedor de direitos da sociedade (Estado de Bem-Estar Social) são estabelecidas relações simbólicas e imaginárias, que extrapolam as relações fáticas do nexo Estado – sociedade. Desse modo, nossa hipótese é de que as acepções do Estado Totalitário, ou do Estado de Bem-Estar Social, não estão restritas às suas insurgências históricas, mas são arcabouços teóricos que continuam atuais para análise dos nexos imaginários e simbólicos com os quais são idealizadas as relações entre o Estado e a sociedade. Este antagonismo entre a sociedade e o Estado é uma recorrência presente, tanto na abordagem do Estado Totalitário, como também na abordagem do Estado de Bem-Estar Social que apresentamos no presente artigo.

Published: December 2023

As sociedades modernas têm enfrentado grandes mudanças em relação às dietas alimentares nas últimas décadas, relacionadas ao consumo de carnes e outros produtos de origem animal. No Brasil, mudanças dietéticas no meio urbano e rural podem ser observadas a partir de pesquisas do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística. Este artigo tem como objetivo discutir os dados da última Pesquisa de Orçamentos Familiares realizada no biênio 2017-2018, analisando as possíveis mudanças na dieta sob a ótica do consumo de carne e derivados de origem animal desde 2008. A metodologia do presente trabalho tomou como base dados secundários da Pesquisa de Orçamento Familiar (POF) 2017-2018 e 2007-2008. O consumo da carne bovina tem sido substituído por outros tipos de carne, como de suínos e aves, possivelmente por serem mais baratas e por mudanças de mentalidade da população, o que ainda impacta na saúde das pessoas e do meio ambiente. Assim, mudanças no consumo alimentar devem priorizar a saúde dos seres humanos e do planeta e não somente por fatores meramente econômicos. O Estado pode ser um importante aliado na operacionalização de tais ações por meio dos programas de compras públicas, por exemplo.

Elicitation Study Based on the Theory of Planned Behaviour that analyses the intention to Adopt Electronic Commerce in the Elderly
Authors: Soto-Hernández Nadia , Grandón Elizabeth E. , Ramírez-Correa Patricio
Published: December 2023

The adoption of electronic commerce has been widely studied through various theories. However, the elderly segment has been relatively excluded from these studies. Focusing on older people is relevant due to the significant increase in the aging of the world population and the digital divide that marginalises them from the benefits of technological advances. In this context, and based on the theory of planned behaviour, this study aims to build an instrument that measures older people’s behavioural, normative, and control beliefs about electronic commerce. The instrument is developed through an elicitation study following a qualitative methodology. Thirty-four older Chilean people were interviewed based on a questionnaire of open questions associated with consequences, social referents, and obstacles to the use of electronic commerce. The 443 responses were examined through content analysis, which led to the determination of measures of behavioural beliefs, evaluation, normative beliefs, motivation to comply, control beliefs, and perceived facilitation. The measures determined are the basis for the proposal of a novel instrument that contains 66 items personalised to this age group. The findings of new variables obtained from the elicitation process highlight the importance of considering ad-hoc measurement scales in the development of public policies to promote the use of electronic commerce in older people. Future research could validate this instrument through a quantitative study in a sample of older people. The methodology followed can be replicated in this population to understand the use of other information technologies such as smartphones and social network sites, among others.

Authors: De Oliveira Santos Frederico , Schneider Hahn Ivanete
Published: December 2023

The purpose of this paper is to analyse the use of machine learning in smart manufacturing, describing techniques, technologies, industries, and purposes associated with industrial applications. We conducted a systematic literature review using Scopus, in which 26,032 documents were found. After applying quality criteria, 107 articles were analysed. The main findings show that machinery was the industry subsector with the major implementations regarding machine learning; process improvement is the main concern (interest) of all implementations; random forest was the most specific machine learning technique used; and diverse technologies associated with this context were identified such as: the industrial internet of things, digital twin, sensor technologies (soft, optical, barometric, ultrasonic), software technologies (Python, MATLAB, LabView, Google AutoML Platform) and equipment technologies (robotic, PLC, CNC). Most fault detection machine learning applications were focused on predictive maintenance, specifically in mechanical equipment (bearings, machines in general, and assembly lines). This study presents a novel taxonomy that identifies 85 specific machine-learning techniques used in smart manufacturing.
The Effect of Irrigation Techniques on Sustainable Water Management for Rice Cultivation System - A Review
Authors: Wichaidist Bittawat , Intrman Amornrat , Puttrawutichai Songsak , Rewtragulpaibul Chawakorn , Chuanpongpanich Supatchaya , Suksaroj Chaisri
Published: December 2023

Rice serves as a fundamental sustenance for approximately half of the global population, particularly in Asia. Nevertheless, the cultivation of rice demands a substantial water supply, and the challenges associated with water deficits have been exacerbated by irregular rainfall patterns induced by global warming. Consequently, there is a critical need to reassess irrigation techniques to effectively tackle these issues. In this comprehensive review, the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) method was employed to systematically explore literature on irrigation techniques aimed at fostering sustainable water management in rice cultivation systems. The primary components of the framework encompass water consumption and water-related characteristics, soil-related characteristics, and plant-related characteristics, encompassing relevant components and indicators. Two alternative irrigation methods, namely alternate wetting and drying (AWD) and saturated soil irrigation (SSI), have been proposed to enhance water use efficiency (WUE) in rice cultivation compared to traditional continuous flooding (CF). These alternative irrigation methods do not adversely affect rice yield, both quantitatively and qualitatively. Furthermore, these alternative irrigation approaches have the potential to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, particularly methane emissions, in rice production. This review underscores the significance of data on alternate irrigation systems, providing valuable insights for researchers and policymakers in formulating strategies that align at every level for practical implementation. This is crucial as it is relevant to multiple organizations and stakeholders. Moreover, in the face of inclement weather conditions resulting from climate change, the study's findings indicate that research on farmers' adaptation, plant stress, and resilience within the rice cultivation system is still in its nascent stages. This highlights the pressing need for further exploration and advancement in these areas to develop effective strategies for coping with the challenges posed by climate change.

Pemphigus is a skin disease that can cause a serious damage to human skin. Pemphigus can result in other issues including painful patches and infected blisters, which can result in sepsis, weight loss, and starvation, all of which can be life-threatening, tooth decay and gum disease. Early prediction of Pemphigus may save us from fatal disease. Machine learning has the potential to offer a highly efficient approach for decision-making and precise forecasting. The healthcare sector is experiencing remarkable advancements through the utilization of machine learning techniques. Therefore, to identify Pemphigus using images, we suggested machine learning-based techniques. This proposed system uses a large dataset collected from various web sources to detect Pemphigus. Augmentation has been applied on our dataset using techniques such as zoom, flip, brightness, distortion, magnitude, height, width to enhance the breadth and variety of the dataset and improve model’s performance. Five popular machine learning algorithms has been employed to train and evaluate model, these are K-Nearest Neighbor (referred to as KNN), Decision Tree (DT), Logistic Regression (LR), Random Forest (RF), and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Our outcome indicate that the CNN based model outperformed the other algorithms by achieving accuracy of 93% whereas LR, KNN, RF and DT achieved accuracies of 78%, 70%, 85% and 75% respectively.

New engineering technologies allow the creation of diagnostic devices for predicting the development of acute tissue ischemia of the extremities and determining the residual time until the removal of the tourniquet, and solving these tasks is particularly relevant during military actions. Acute limb ischemia is a sudden critical decrease in perfusion that threatens the viability of the limb. The incidence of this condition is 1.5 cases per 10 000 people per year. Acute ischemia occurs due to the blockage of blood flow in major arteries (embolism, thrombosis, trauma), leading to the cessation of adequate blood supply to metabolically active tissues of the limb, including the skin, muscles, and nerve endings. To address these issues, the article analyzes the changes in the impedance of biological tissue. The introduction and use of the coefficient of relative electrical conductivity, denoted as k, as a diagnostic criterion parameter, are justified. Experimental studies of changes in the coefficient of relative electrical conductivity k were conducted, confirming that the transition from exponential to linear dependencies of the coefficient establishes the degree of viability of the biological cell (tissue) and the moment of occurrence of reperfusion syndrome. It has been established that a deviation of the value of k by 10–15% from its unit value diagnoses the initial process of blood perfusion impairment and the development of ischemic tissue disease. The rate of change of k serves as a criterion for predicting the progression of the disease and as a corrective factor for therapeutic treatment.

El neurodesarrollo es un proceso de modificación continua de sistemas genéticos, biológicos, anatómicos y neuroquímicos del sistema nervioso central, con proyección hacia la generación de diversas formas de funcionalidad cognitiva, afectiva, conductual y social. Estas modificaciones son producto de la interacción entre el ambiente y el cerebro, y como si fuera una danza se entrelazan en formas dinámicas e intensas de expresión.

Introducción: Las experiencias traumáticas en la infancia son un factor que afecta el desarrollo socioemocional y la maduración cerebral. El objetivo del estudio fue describir el procesamiento emocional en un grupo de niños con Estrés postraumático (TEPT) usando neuroimágenes funcionales. Método: Se tomó una muestra de 21 niños con TEPT y 22 controles; se presentaron dos tareas durante la sesión de neuroimagen; la primera, fue una tarea tipo stroop, donde se debía indicar el color en que estaba impresa una palabra, omitiendo la valencia emocional. En la segunda, se presentaron caras con distinta valencia emocional y se debía identificar la valencia correspondiente. Resultados: En la tarea tipo stroop, el análisis de varianza reveló un tamaño de efecto por grupo, siendo el grupo control más preciso que el grupo TEPT con mayor activación de áreas corticales en el grupo control. La tarea de caras arrojó menores tiempos de reacción para caras negativas en el grupo TEPT y activaciones cerebrales similares entre los dos grupos. Conclusiones: Se propone que las diferencias a nivel cerebral se explicarían por un procesamiento implícito, mediado por un procesamiento tipo bottom-up. Así, los niños no logran expresar lo que sienten no porque “no encuentran las palabras para hacerlo” sino que realmente no tienen forma de acceder a las sensaciones y emociones derivadas de la experiencia traumática. De confirmarse este resultado con otros estudios, se plantearía la necesidad de incluir en la evaluación del TEPT infantil la afectación en los componentes cognitivos y la posibilidad de desarrollar estrategias de intervención que promuevan el fortalecimiento de componentes asociados a función ejecutiva.
