La crisis como antinomia histórica : sobre la revelación de la verdad
Authors: Alegría Ciro
Published: May 2023

En los tiempos modernos, el acontecer presente es crítico. Comprender la actualidad se ha convertido en la tarea fundamental y nos ocupamos del presente cada vez más intensamente. Desciframos los signos de los tiempos. Desde que la Revolución Francesa derribó al «antiguo régimen» o, al menos, desde el final de los imperios coloniales, el fundamento racional del orden social se encuentra en realidades enfáticamente temporales que se designan con términos tales como la época, los nuevos tiempos, la revolución, la emancipación, la crisis (véase Habermas, 2008, capítulo 1; Koselleck, 1993, 2007). Hacemos uso de una razón retrospectiva que empieza en los últimos acontecimientos y mediciones para explicar, a la luz del aquí y ahora, el conjunto del proceso que nos ha traído hasta la situación actual y determina el futuro. Las preguntas filosóficas que esta condición adquirida pero irreversible suscita son luego cómo orientarnos a partir de la crisis, cómo convertir el conocimiento de la crisis en fuente de actividad crítica y cómo hallar el principio de esta actividad, el criterio. En las páginas que siguen hay un esbozo de respuesta a estas preguntas, obtenido a partir de la reflexión sobre el significado práctico de las antinomias de la Crítica de la razón pura de Kant. Ello permite comprender por qué la investigación de los grandes hechos de violencia —aniquilamiento, explotación, defraudación, contaminación— de tiempos recientes es una de las formas en que todavía podemos hacer filosofía
Ideas sobre la función de la filosofía
Authors: San Martín Javier
Published: May 2023

Ante todo, quiero manifestar mi agradecimiento a los editores por haberme invitado a participar en este homenaje al profesor Salomón Lerner Febres, que ha sabido hacer de la filosofía una escuela de gestión y compromiso. El profesor Lerner, primero como rector de la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (PUCP) y luego como presidente de la Comisión de la Verdad y Reconciliación del Perú (CVR), ha mostrado hasta qué punto la filosofía es función de la sociedad y debe cumplir una función en ella. Los trabajos de la CVR son mirados desde mi país con una sana envidia acentuada por el deseo de que se hubiera podido hacer lo mismo en España, víctima de un terrible conflicto civil que rompió las comunidades naturales y sembró las cunetas de improvisadas tumbas de asesinados, sin que los vencedores cedieran ni un ápice de cara a una reconciliación con justicia.
El Eros del preguntar

Las siguientes reflexiones surgen de la proximidad entre las palabras ἔρως (éros) y ἐρωτάω (erotáo, yo pregunto). Si bien es cierto que esa proximidad en un primer momento es solo fonética1 , se pueden establecer legítimas vinculaciones entre la una y la otra en relación con lo que originariamente significa la filosofía
Fenomenología de la responsabilidad

En esta ocasión, he decidido abordar la «responsabilidad» desde un punto de vista fenomenológico, acudiendo para ello tanto al método como a algunas reflexiones introducidas precisamente por Edmund Husserl que iluminan este concepto desde un ángulo singular.
Derecho natural y derecho de las naciones. De Tomás de Aquino a Suárez
Authors: Courtine Jean-François
Published: May 2023

En estos términos se expresaba, en el umbral de su lección Sobre el poder civil, Francisco de Vitoria (1492-1546), verdadero maestro de lo que se ha llamado la «Escuela de Salamanca». En efecto, De Vitoria está en el origen de una profunda renovación del tomismo en las universidades españolas y ante todo en Salamanca, donde enseña, a partir de 1523, introduciendo una innovación pedagógica muy importante que ya había puesto en práctica al final de su enseñanza parisina en el convento dominicano de Saint-Jacques: reemplazar el comentario de las Sentencias de Pedro Lombardo por el de la Suma teológica.
La continuidad del proceso social que la Comisión de la Verdad y Reconciliación inició
Authors: Ames Rolando
Published: May 2023

Escribir sobre Salomón Lerner Febres lleva, con naturalidad, a pensar en la tarea pública más trascendente que a él le tocó encabezar: presidir la Comisión de la Verdad y Reconciliación del Perú (CVR) entre los años 2001 y 2003. Es por eso fácil vincular la importancia de los aspectos más personales con los de esa misión pública temporal, pero sustantiva, en que se encontró involucrado. Los azares de la vida llevaron a este filósofo serio y consistente, retraído y sencillo, que era rector de la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (PUCP), a un rol muy distinto, de gran impacto emocional colectivo y visibilidad amplísima. Por eso, junto con la amistad del que escribe —y mi rol también como Comisionado en la CVR— encuentro recursos para tomar distancia y, pensando en Salomón, reflexionar sobre asuntos que, ligados a él, nos interpelan, sin embargo, a todos y todas, peruanos y peruanas.
La defensa de la dignidad de toda persona humana en el Perú
Authors: Simons Camino Alberto
Published: May 2023

El motivo principal para escribir este artículo es expresar mi reconocimiento personal a Salomón, con ocasión de la celebración de sus 70 años de edad y, sobre todo, por su labor como rector en la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (PUCP), como presidente en la Comisión de la Verdad y Reconciliación (CVR) y actualmente como presidente ejecutivo del Instituto de Democracia y Derechos Humanos de la PUCP (IDEHPUCP). Creo que detrás de todo ello está el tema y la defensa de la dignidad de todo ser humano en nuestro país y de volver a lo que fue la inspiración del Concilio Vaticano II y comprobar que sus enseñanzas siguen constituyendo un reto para nosotros.
Un filósofo cinéfilo
Authors: de Cárdenas Federico
Published: May 2023

En el Colegio de La Salle, regentado por los Hermanos de las Escuelas Cristianas, una orden de origen francés y que tuvo a su cargo una media docena de colegios de clase media en Lima y provincias hacia mediados del siglo pasado, existía una tradición de fin de semana: los sábados se proyectaba un largometraje para los alumnos de primaria y secundaria en el Salón de Actos. La entrada solía costar un sol y todos nos apresurábamos a pagarla, en parte porque ver una película era una promesa de diversión asegurada, pero en parte también porque aquellos que no lo hacían se quedaban resolviendo problemas matemáticos toda la mañana.
Reflexiones sobre la planificación de la inversión en los sectores de electricidad y gas natural
Authors: Leyva Flores Ricardo
Published: May 2023

En el presente artículo, el autor presenta un análisis de los aspectos positivos y negativos de la planificación estatal en los sectores de electricidad y de gas natural. En ambos sectores señala como la intervención planificadora por parte del Estado se ha ido fortaleciendo con el paso de los años. Sin embargo, indica también los problemas que aún presenta.El autor recalca la importancia de la planificación estatal en un régimen de economía social de mercado, y en complemento a ello, señala la problemática que se genera para el Estado cuando las empresas no tienen incentivos suficientes para atender la demanda, pues es ahí dónde el Estado tiene que intervenir por medio de empresas públicas.Asimismo, el autor presenta ciertas recomendaciones que realiza la Comisión Multisectorial de Reforma del Subsector Eléctrico para contribuir con la problemática que se ha generado en diversos casos por la falta de una eficiente planificación estatal.

La vigencia de la ley transitoria de municipalidades de 1857 y su naturaleza declarativa de interés nacional: a propósito del caso del centro poblado de Iquicha
Authors: Villalobos Villalobos Vicente Brayan
Published: May 2023

Durante el gobierno provisional del mariscal Ramón Castilla (1855-1858), la Convención Nacional instalada en 1855 promulgó la Ley Transitoria de Municipalidades el 2 de enero de 1857, disponiendo la creación de municipalidades en 691 distritos comprendidos en las provincias y departamentos entonces existentes, entre los cuales se menciona al distrito de Iquicha, ubicado en la provincia de Huanta, región de Ayacucho. Sin embargo, por acontecimientos y conflictos sociopolíticos que afectaron la cohesión, vida y desarrollo de esta comunidad, no se concretó dicha acción demarcatoria. Ya en el 2022, el autor del presente trabajo fue contactado por algunos representantes de la comunidad iquichana –reasentada en una zona altoandina perfectamente determinable según se lo manifestaron– para emprender alguna acción legal destinada a exigir al Estado peruano la implementación del respectivo distrito.Así, este texto deriva de la tesis que el autor planteó en un proceso de cumplimiento incoado contra la Secretaría de Demarcación y Organización Territorial de la Presidencia del Consejo de Ministros, debido a la renuencia de este órgano para ejecutar la referida ley de municipalidades (inactividad material de la Administración Pública). Para lograr este objetivo, el autor sostiene que la ley en cuestión tiene naturaleza declarativa de interés nacional, a pesar de no contener el enunciado lingüístico usado por la técnica legislativa actual para la redacción de las leyes declarativas. Durante el desarrollo de su razonamiento y argumentación, aborda varios temas estrechamente vinculados a la controversia, tales como la validez, vigencia y eficacia de las normas, los métodos de interpretación jurídica, el contenido material de las leyes declarativas, la colisión entre el precedente constitucional “Villanueva Valverde” y la nueva regulación del proceso de cumplimiento, entre otros conceptos y categorías jurídicas. Asimismo, a fin de contextualizar el caso y evidenciar la problemática social del pueblo iquichano, integra algunos estudios sociológicos e históricos de esta comunidad.

Authors: Harianto Teh , Meilani Yohana F. Cahya Palupi
Published: May 2023

Based on interviews with the Operational Director, Human Capital and Legal Director and Finance and Accounting Director, confirmation of several issues related to organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) was obtained. In conditions of limited manpower planning, everyone is required to work more than usual, whether it's within the scope of his own work, or also work in other units. Incomplete involvement and participation of all employees, especially for programs carried out by different departments. This causes the programs or policies implemented are not optimal. There is still a lack of employee involvement and participation, especially programs related to different divisions. This study uses multiple linear regression. Involvement of organizational commitment, organizational justice and trust as factors that influence the OCB. The results show that the three factors above play an important role in realizing OCB which will have positive benefits for achieving the company's vision and mission.

Authors: Bandoli Giselda Maria Dutra
Published: May 2023

A leitura e a escrita ocupam lugar decisivo na sociedade em que vivemos: estamos inseridos na cultura letrada, o que nos impõe a necessidade de perseguirmos uma pedagogia que insira os alunos no universo do ler e do escrever, fazendo valer o direito inalienável de todos terem acesso aos bens culturais, entre os quais está a literatura. Assim, este trabalho apresenta o projeto Literature-se, desenvolvido no Instituto Federal Fluminense Campus Itaperuna, em 2020 e 2021. Objetivou-se trabalhar na perspectiva do letramento literário, propondo à comunidade escolar a realização de ações variadas de intervenção literária, em parceria com a Academia de Letras do IFF Campus Itaperuna, por isso buscou a democratização da leitura. Resultados apontam positivamente para a formação de círculo de leitores reflexivos e escritores comprometidos com a realidade sócio-histórica em que vivem. Metodologicamente, o projeto se ancorou em pesquisas e em autores que buscam aplicar o conceito de letramento no ensino de literatura, além daqueles que defendem a importância do ato de ler. Assim, Barbosa (2011), Candido (2009), Cosson (2018) e Freire (1989), dentre outros, oferecem suporte teórico às nossas argumentações.

Published: May 2023

BACKGROUND: Recent studies have shown individuals with Parkinson’s disease (PD) are able to learn tasks with postural control demand, however, they need more practice, more sensory information, and extrinsic feedback for this improvement. These aspects could be provided by task performance on virtual environment. In addition, the retention interval found in these studies was short.  
AIM: To investigate the extent to which the learning of tasks involving a high demand for postural control is impacted in individuals with PD, and to determine the impact of the learning process on both cognition and postural control.
METHOD: The Experimental Group comprised 13 participants with PD and the Control Group comprises 14 healthy elderly. Participants took part in 13 one-hour sessions, which involved four Kinect system games, with high postural and cognitive demands. The short-term retention test was performed one week after the post-test, whereas the long-term retention test was performed one month after the post-test.
RESULTS: Individuals with PD learned the tasks with a high demand of postural control and demonstrated both short and long-term retention. The skill learning of the four tasks led to an improvement in cognitive functions specifically in memory. There was an improvement of reactive aspects of postural control in the elderly and with the individuals with PD, also better gait stability in the elderly.
CONCLUSION:Despite the degeneration in striatum, responsible of consolidation of motor learning, individuals with PD are able to learn motor skills with a high demand for postural control, retaining them in the long term.

Authors: Ishii Victor H. K. , Ishii Thayná L. , Miri Andressa L. , Araújo Hayslenne A. G. O. , Gil André W. O. , Smaili Suhaila M.
Published: May 2023

BACKGROUND: Individuals with Parkinson’s disease (PD) have motor impairment that leads to the fear of falling, which limits functional independence.
AIM: To correlate the fear of falling with cognitive function, handgrip strength, upper limb pulling force and functional execution time on the task of boarding a bus in individuals with PD.
METHOD: A cross-sectional study involving 31 individuals with idiopathic PD. Assessments were performed with the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) and the Falls Efficacy Scale (FES-I). Handgrip strength and upper limb pulling force were measured using dynamometers installed on a bus prototype. Execution time was determined on the single task (ST), which consisted of climbing a bus, as well as a dual task (DT) (detecting specific letters from an audio recording during the task). Correlations between variables were determined using Pearson’s correlation test, with the significance level set at 5% (p <0.05).
RESULTS: Moderate correlations were found between the FES-I score and the following variables: MVC for right handgrip strength (r = -0.491), left handgrip strength (r = -0.522), right arm pulling force (r = -0.522) and left arm pulling force (r = -0.563) as well as execution time on the ST (r = 0.514) and DT (r = 0.445). Moreover, a weak correlation was found between the total FES-I score and MMSE (r = -0.377).
CONCLUSION: Greater concern with regards to falling was correlated with lower handgrip strength and upper limb pulling force, and a greater time spent boarding a bus under ST and DT conditions.
Pre-crastination: Extra Physical Effort for Mind-Clearing in Reaching, Walking, and Other Activities
Authors: Rosenbaum David A. , Sturgill Hunter B. , Feghhi Iman
Published: May 2023

Background: In this opinion we consider the roles of physical and cognitive effort in choosing between actions that make different physical and cognitive demands.

View of the past: In choosing between a less or more demanding physical task, the cognitive effort of each was not expected to have a large effect.

Current state: However, people are willing to expend extra physical effort to clear their minds (to avoid cognitive effort), a phenomenon called pre-crastination.

Future perspective: Because pre-crastination can lead to premature decisions, a new priority is to understand the tradeoffs between physical and mental effort.

Published: May 2023

Aim: To evaluate dentin permeability after pretreatment with 2.5% aqueous solution of titanium tetrafluoride (TiF4), followed by a self-etching universal adhesive system. Methods: Forty dentin discs (1.5 mm thick) were randomly divided into groups according to the application or non-application of a pretreatment, and the type of adhesive system to be tested (two-step self-etching/ Clearfil SE Bond/ Kuraray Medical, or universal adhesive system/ Single Bond Universal/ 3M ESPE). Both sides of the discs were conditioned with 37% phosphoric acid to remove the smear layer. The first hydraulic conductivity measurement (L1) was performed in a permeability machine, under 5 PSI pressure. The samples were sanded again to form a standardized smear layer. The teeth designated for pre-treatment with TiF4 received the TiF4 solutions applied actively for 60 seconds, and the adhesive systems were applied according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Then, a new hydraulic conductivity measurement (L2) was performed for the purpose of calculating the hydraulic conductance at a later time, considering the water viscosity and the thickness of the specimen. The percentage (L) of dentin permeability after application of the adhesive system was obtained (L (%) = [(L1-L2) x100] / L1). The Mann-Whitney non-parametric test was applied. Results: There was no difference between the two adhesive systems, or between the groups with or without pretreatment, as regards dentin permeability (p>0.05). Conclusion: Pretreatment with 2.5% TiF4 did not influence dentin permeability, irrespective of the adhesive system used.

Authors: Rachmadani Dinda Putri , Suyono Hadi
Published: May 2023

The era of post-truth has caused many cases where politicians bring down their opponents in various ways to get pleasure. This pleasure is known as schadenfreude. This study aims to determine the description and factors that influence scadenfreude in politicians. The subjects in this study were regional-level politicians from one of the Z political parties in city X as many as three subjects. The research method used in this research is a qualitative research method with a phenomenological approach. The main data collection technique in this study used semi-structured interviews. The data analysis technique in this study used content analysis. Researchers used triangulation of data sources with significant persons to meet the data validity requirements. The findings show that there is schadenfreude in politicians. Schadenfreude's emotional appears to politicians because of competition and tend to favor their own party. Politicians expect their opponents to lose, so they are happy with their victory. The defeat received by an opponent with bad morals is deemed appropriate to feel happy if the opponent loses. This research is an illustration for politicians not to engage in behavior related to schadenfreude because it has a negative impact on the democratic process.

Published: May 2023

Ni1-xGdxFe2O4 (x=0.02, 0.04, 0.06 & 0.08) (NGF) nanoparticles were synthesized via hydrothermal method. The X-ray diffraction study confirmed the single-phase cubic spinel structure. The morphology indicated the stones (approximately nanocubes) like structures in the FESEM images. The mass loss, and thermal transition temperatures were evaluated as a function of Gd-content using TG-DTG, and TG-DSC measurements. The M-H loops evidenced the high magnetization values for NGFO as compared to pure nickel ferrite. Cation distribution showed the preferred occupancy of cations in the magnetic spinel system. Frequency dependence of dielectric, conductivity, and impedance parameters was elucidated with increase in Gd-content.
A Sustainable Closed-Loop Supply Chains Inventory Model Considering Optimal Number of Remanufacturing Times
Authors: Alamri Adel A.
Published: May 2023

The mathematical modelling of reverse logistics inventory systems ignores that returned items may arrive out of sequence, i.e. with different number of remanufacturing times. Moreover, such modelling assumes that the retuned items may retain the same quality upon recovery regardless of how many times they have been previously remanufactured. This paper develops a new mathematical expression of the percentage of retuned items that can be remanufactured a finite number of times. The proposed expression is modelled as a function of the expected number of times an item can be remanufactured on its life cycle and the number of times an item can be technologically (or optimally) remanufactured based on its quality upon recovery. The model developed in this paper considers joint production and remanufacturing options. The return rate is a varying demand dependent rate, which is a decision variable with demand, product deterioration, manufacturing and remanufacturing rates being arbitrary functions of time. The model considers the initial inventory of returned items in the mathematical formulation, which enables decision makers to adjust all functions and input parameters for subsequent cycles. Illustrative examples indicate that dependent purchasing price of recovery items and the incorporation of remanufacturing investment cost significantly impact on the optimal remanufacturing policy.

İnsanoğlunun gökyüzünde ulaşılmaz olana yaklaşma hayali vardır. Efsaneleşen bu hayali gerçekleştirip gökyüzüne çıkabilmek için ilk önce uçurtma, daha sonra balon, zeplin ve uçaklar yapılmıştır. Bu araçlar arasında iki çıtanın kâğıtla kaplanıp kuyruk eklenmesiyle meydana getirilen uçurtmanın modası hiçbir zaman geçmemiştir. 18. Yüzyılda altın çağını yaşayan uçurtma, sadece eğlence ve görsellikten daha fazlası olup havacılık bilim ve teknolojisinin ciddi bir çalışma alanı haline gelmiştir. Uçurtmanın havada yükselme şartlarının incelenmesi sonucunda uçakların inşası ve motorlu uçuşun gelişiminde önemli bir adım atılmıştır. Ayrıca uçurtma havacılık, meteoroloji ve kablosuz iletişimle beraber keşif hizmetlerinde önemli bir rol oynamıştır. Avrupa’da başlayan yenilik hareketlerinin etkisiyle uçurtma savaş sırasında da kullanılmaya başlamıştır. Uçurtma, benzeri görülmemiş harp araç gereçleri arasına girerek kara ve deniz savaşlarında farklı şekillerde faydalanılmıştır. Bu çalışmada uçurtmanın tarihiyle birlikte Osmanlı Devleti’nde askerî olarak kullanılma süreci anlatılmıştır.

Factors Associated with Adherence to Provider Referrals for Lung Cancer Screening with Low Dose Computed Tomography: Pre- and Post-COVID-19 Analysis
Authors: Li Jiang , Stults Cheryl D. , Liang Su-Ying , Martinez Meghan
Published: May 2023

Background Lung cancer has been the leading cause of American deaths from cancer. Although Medicare started covering lung cancer screening (LCS) with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) in 2015, the uptake of LDCT-LCS remains low. This study examines the changes in adherence to provider referrals for LDCT-LCS and the factors at patient, provider, and health system levels that influence the completion rate of LDCT-LCS orders before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.Methods Our study examined electronic health record data (December 2013 - December 2020) from a large, community-based clinical healthcare delivery system in California. We plotted monthly trends in the frequency of LDCT-LCS orders and completion rate and compared the annual LDCT-LCS completion rate between LCS-eligible and LCS-ineligible groups. We then explored multilevel factors associated with the completion of LDCT-LCS orders using hierarchical generalized linear models.Results There was an increase in LDCT-LCS orders (N = 12,469) from 2013 to 2019, followed by a sharp decline in March 2020 due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Thereafter, LDCT-LCS orders slowly increased again in June 2020. The completion rate of LDCT-LCS increased from 0% in December 2013 to approximately 70% in 2018–2019 but declined to 50–60% in 2020 during the pandemic. Ineligible patients had lower completion rates of LDCT-LCS. Patients who were new to the healthcare system, Black, received the LDCT-LCS order in the first few years after Medicare coverage (2016 or 2017), during the pandemic, had major comorbidities, and smoked less than 30 pack-years were less likely to complete an order. Patients were more likely to complete LDCT-LCS orders if they were younger, received the LDCT-LCS order from a physician (vs. nonphysician provider), from family medicine or other specialties (vs. internal medicine), or saw a provider with more experience in LDCT-LCS.Conclusions The beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic largely decreased the volume of LDCT-LCS orders, but rates have since been slowing recovering. Future interventions to improve lung cancer screening should consider doing more targeted outreach to new patients and Black patients as well as providing additional education to nonphysician practitioners and those providers with lower rates of LDCT-LCS referral orders.

Somatic embryogenesis is a unique method of in vitro regeneration, which can be used in plant reproduction, germplasm conservation, and molecular-assisted breeding. The results showed that the optimum medium for embryogenic callus induction was MS+6 mg L-1 6-BA+1.5 mg L-1 TDZ+0.5 mg·L-1 NAA+30 g·L-1 sucrose +7 g·L-1 agar, and the induction rate was 47.45%. The best somatic differentiation medium was MS+2 mg·L-16-BA+1.5 mg·L-1 TDZ+30g·L-1 sucrose +7g·L-1 agar, and the induction rate of somatic embryos was 54.45%. The optimum medium for embryoid proliferation was MS +6mg·L-1 6-BA + 1 mg·L-1 NAA +0.2mg·L-1 TDZ, and the proliferation rate and the multiplication coefficient reached 46.33% and 7.83, respectively. The mature somatic embryos were put into MS, B5, and 1/2MS medium for seedling culture. T In MS medium, true leaves grew, complete plants were obtained, and the seedling rate was 88.00%. At the same time, the survival rate of transplanting seedlings in the mixed nutrient soil with the ratio of original soil (peat: organic fertilizer: soil) =1:1:1 was as high as 98%. Cytological observation showed that the somatic embryos underwent globular, heart-shaped, torpedo, and cotyledon stages. This study established a tissue culture and regeneration system of C. × generalis with excellent somatic embryos, and provide basic technical support for the large-scale commercial propagation and germplasm resources protection. It will lay a foundation for further research on gene function and breeding new varieties and ideal research materials for the study of somatic embryogenesis mechanism and genetic transformation of C. × generalis.
Decision making in medicine - Are obstetricians' physicians influenced by "non-medical" information?
Authors: Binyamini Iris Manor , Schreiber-Divon Michal
Published: May 2023

Objective: To examine whether obstetricians' physicians are influenced by non-medical information/considerations in the decision-making process.
Methods: The study population was sampled from four hospitals.
Participants: 100 physicians. All 100 physicians were presented with three somewhat vague case studies that an obstetrician might encounter during their career. The cases were chosen through the triangulation method by specialists – judges in the fields of obstetrics and gynecology. Each participant was asked to provide a decision: whether to continue with a vaginal birth plan or to do a cesarean. In addition, each participant was asked to explain the decision. Analysis of the study data consisted of three stages: Line-by-Line Coding, Axial Coding, and Core Category.
Results:Three main themes were revealed in the study, which are: the process of the birth, fetal distress, and the passage of the fetus through the pelvis. In addition, the study findings indicate that in medical practice, "non-medical" information is being used as a critical argument in decision-making regarding the procedure of the birth, for two of the themes (fetal distress and passage of the fetus through the pelvis), the non-medical information has increased the likelihood of the doctors choosing to perform a cesarean.
Conclusions: If, as this study suggests, obstetricians rely on non-medical and non-obstetric information in their decision-making, this issue should be presented during training and throughout the practice of these physicians, in order to increase their awareness of the additional factors that influence their medical decision-making.

Cold-activated thermogenesis of brown adipose tissues (BAT) is vital for the survival of animals under cold stress and also inhibits the development of tumours. The development of small-molecule tools that target thermogenesis pathways could lead to novel therapies against cold, obesity, and even cancer. Here, we identify a chemical signal that is produced in beetles in the winter to activate fat thermogenesis. This hormone elevates the basal body temperature by increasing cellular mitochondrial density and uncoupling in order to promote beetle survival. We demonstrate that this hormone activates UCP4-mediated uncoupled respiration through adipokinetic hormone receptor (AKHR). This signal serves as a novel fat-burning activator that utilizes a conserved mechanism to promote thermogenesis not only in beetles, nematode and flies, but also in mice, protecting the mice against cold and tumor growth. This hormone represents a new strategy to manipulate fat thermogenesis.
Increasing Image Classification Speed in Python Environments Using Convolutional Neural Networks Supported by High-Performance Computing

Published: May 2023

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been found to be extremely effective at categorising photos. However, because CNN models are so large and image processing requires so many calculations, classification time can be significantly decreased. We look at how to leverage High-Performance Computing (HPC) to speed up how CNNs identify images in Python in this work. We create and test alternative CNN architectures on an HPC-enabled cluster by using parallel processing and GPU acceleration to speed up image categorization. We also investigate how different data pretreatment methods and hardware configurations influence how effectively categorization works. Our research shows that employing Python environments that are optimised for high-performance computing (HPC) can significantly enhance image classification speed while maintaining excellent accuracy rates. This research is critical for developing better and easier-to-use image classification systems, particularly in computer vision, remote sensing, and biomedical imaging.

Purpose: A2O process is one of the biological removal processes of nutrients in wastewater treatment. Phosphorus removal by biological method is a new and developed technique that is done by changing the design of suspended growth systems.
methods: This is a cross-sectional descriptive study, which is a pilot workshop based in the first module, and chemistry, physics and microbiological tests are carried out at the wastewater treatment plant laboratory in one of the cities of Tehran province in 2020-2021 during a period of 12 months. Was completed. In this research, a total of 500 samples were taken from raw sewage, aeration pond, effluent, secondary sedimentation and return activated sludge.
Results: In this research, the internal decay coefficient and the growth efficiency coefficient are equal to d-1 0.1264 and 0.6579 gVSS/gCOD, respectively. And the maximum specific rate of consumption of food substance and the semi-saturation constant of food substance respectively gCOD/gVSS.d 3.3467 gCOD/m 25.305. If the specific rate of consumption of food substance or efficiency factor in our research is 0.27 gCOD/gVSS.d and the semi-constant Ks saturation equal to 27.9 gCOD/m has been obtained, this actually shows that the organic matter (COD) in the waste water of Pardis city had a higher degradability (sbCOD).
Conclusion: According to the obtained results, the synthetic coefficients in the Lineweaver-Burk and Hanes models are suitable, but in the Hofstee model, the amount of K and Kd is less than the optimal amount for the proper exploitation of the pilot.

Background and Aim: Colonic self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) placement enables preoperative total colonoscopy (TCS) in patients with obstructive colorectal cancer. Following SEMS placement, it is possible to assess the presence or absence of synchronous proximal colon cancers and perform preoperative endoscopic resection (ER) for neoplastic lesions proximal to the primary lesion. The objective of this study was to determine the usefulness and safety of preoperative TCS and ER after SEMS placement in patients with obstructive colorectal cancer.Methods From April 2016 to March 2022, we enrolled 100 patients with obstructive colorectal cancer who underwent SEMS placement, including 86 patients who underwent preoperative TCS after SEMS placement. Complications associated with preoperative TCS and ER after SEMS placement and the characteristics of the neoplastic lesions were assessed.Results The success rate of SEMS placement as bridge-to-surgery was 98.0%; six patients had associated complications. Preoperative TCS was performed 8 (range: 1–30) days after SEMS placement. Four patients had synchronous advanced cancers. Nine non-advanced synchronous cancers, 116 adenomas, and 18 sessile-serrated lesions were treated by preoperative TCS and ER after SEMS placement. No procedure-related complications, namely stent migration, bleeding, and perforation were observed. Forty-five patients underwent follow-up TCS 1 year after surgery. Only one patient with submucosal invasive cancer required a second surgery.Conclusions Preoperative TCS and ER after SEMS placement was performed with no complications. This approach allows preoperative evaluation of the entire colon and the treatment of precancerous lesions. (240 words)

Published: May 2023

Objective: To investigate the association between lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), Parkinson's disease (PD) progression, and the presence of REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) in PD patients.
Methods: A total of 897 PD patients from the Long-term follow-up database of Parkinson's disease (LEAD-PD) were included in the study. The prevalence of LUTS and its association with RBD, non-motor symptoms, and disease severity were analyzed. Intergroup comparisons, subgroup analysis, logistic regression and ROC curve analyses were used to identify clinical features associated with LUTS.
Results: LUTS is common in patients with PD, with nocturia being the most frequent symptom. LUTS is correlated with disease severity (UPDRS I to IV, p<0.001), cognitive function (MMSE, p<0.001), depression (HRSD, p<0.001), and quality of life (PDQ39, p<0.001). The presence of RBD significantly increased the occurrence of LUTS, particularly urinary urgency (p<0.001) and frequency (p<0.001), in both male and female PD patients. RBD combined with non-motor symptom scores (NMSQ), UPDRS I or quality of life scores (PDQ39) served as a highly sensitive predictor for the onset of urinary urgency (AUC=0.881) and frequency (AUC=0.915) in PD patients.
Conclusion: RBD is an independent risk factor for LUTS in patients with PD. it is crucial to strengthen the prevention and treatment of LUTS symptoms in PD-RBD patients. Further research exploring the pathological and physiological mechanisms by which RBD leads to LUTS symptoms can provide a deeper understanding of the occurrence and progression of PD, paving the way for the development of innovative treatments.
