Published: December 2024

Introducción: El cáncer de cuello uterino (CCU) es el tumor ginecológico más frecuente en países en vías de desarrollo y la primera causa de muerte por cáncer en mujeres de 15-44 años. Los pacientes con CCU localmente avanzado (LA) son una población cuyo tratamiento con quimiorradioterapia tiene como objetivo la curación. Sin embargo, entre un 30 a 60% presentan recaída de enfermedad dentro de los primeros dos años de seguimiento. El objetivo fue evaluar la sobrevida libre de enfermedad (SLE) en pacientes con diagnóstico de CCU en estadio II y III irresecable, luego del tratamiento estándar con quimiorradioterapia concurrente.
Materiales y métodos: Estudio observacional, descriptivo, retrospectivo de 47 pacientes con CCU en estadio II - III irresecable, que realizaron tratamiento estándar con quimiorradioterapia concurrente seguido de braquiterapia, entre enero de 2018 y diciembre de 2022, en el Hospital General de Agudos Dr. Teodoro Álvarez, de Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Resultados: Se evaluaron las historias clínicas de 47 pacientes con CCU en estadio II y III, según clasificación de FIGO 2018. La mediana de edad fue de 44 años. ECOG 0-2. El 40% en estadio II y el 60% en estadio III. El 89% presentaba histología escamosa. Luego del tratamiento con quimiorradioterapia, el 79% tuvo respuesta completa, el 6% persistencia de enfermedad y el 15% progresión de enfermedad. Durante el seguimiento, el 44% presentó recaída de enfermedad. La mediana de SLE fue de 9 meses en estadio II y 7 meses en estadio III. Luego de la recurrencia, el 71% inició una primera línea de tratamiento.
Discusión: El CCU localmente avanzado es una enfermedad agresiva, con alta tasa de recaída. Se han realizado ensayos clínicos para intensificar el tratamiento, sin beneficio en sobrevida global. Se requiere de nuevos tratamientos y biomarcadores para poder ofrecer a los pacientes un tratamiento individualizado.

Published: December 2024

Ante la alta prevalencia de desnutrición, resulta de suma importancia el diagnóstico temprano de la misma para así reducir los efectos secundarios que ocasionan los tratamientos oncológicos y contribuir a una mejor calidad de vida y mejor pronóstico de los pacientes. El objetivo fue determinar la performance diagnóstica de las herramientas de tamizaje nutricional para mejorar los resultados clínicos en los pacientes oncológicos. Se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica de artículos publicados en el período comprendido entre el año 2016 y el año 2020 en Medline/PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, de estudios originales que describieran y/o analizaran las herramientas de tamizaje nutricional en pacientes ambulatorios adultos y/o adultos mayores de ambos sexos con diagnóstico oncológico. Se incluyeron 20 estudios que abordaron las 4 herramientas de screening más utilizadas: MST, PG-SGA SF, NUTRISCORE y SARC-F. El cuestionario MST presenta una sensibilidad similar a la herramienta considerada como gold standard PG-SGA. La PG-SGA SF tuvo mayor sensibilidad para detectar riesgo de desnutrición comparada con el MST, MUST y SNAQ, se evidenció, además, que un puntaje 15 de PG-SGA SF se asoció a mayor mortalidad a 90 días y a un menor tiempo de sobrevida. Con respecto al NUTRISCORE, mostró la más alta sensibilidad y especificidad comparado con la PG-SGA. Finalmente, SARC-F se correlacionó más estrechamente con la evaluación de la función muscular que con la masa muscular, mostrando una asociación significativa con varios parámetros de evaluación geriátrica.
Desain Pelayanan Pastoral Orang Muda Katolik Gereja Santo Yosafat Surabaya menurut Christus Vivit
Authors: Kurniawan Hilarius Andika , Suwito Benny
Published: December 2024

Young Catholics are called to continue proclaiming faith in the world as modern-day images of Jesus. In Christus Vivit, Pope Francis identifies young people as the "now of the Church" and recognizes their potential to improve the world. As a result, the Church must prepare the formation of young Catholics earnestly. This research explores and designs pastoral care for young Catholics at St. Josafat Church in Surabaya, in line with Christus Vivit. Using qualitative methods, the researcher conducted interviews, surveys, and literature studies to analyze the current pastoral care and develop a new design. While the pastoral movement at St. Josafat Church is active and based on Christus Vivit, it remains focused on bonding and lacks full integration. The general guidelines for the pastoral care of young people at St. Josafat Church Surabaya is aimed to enhance the formation process of young people. These guidelines address several needs specific to the youth, including: building bonding, faith formation, self-recognition and self-potential, leadership development, and the implementation of a missionary spirit. In the next phase, this general guideline for pastoral care for young people according to Christus Vivit will be periodically evaluated to ensure that pastoral care for young people is increasingly optimal and relevant.

Authors: Christian Stefanus Lumen , Esti Christina
Published: December 2024

Every people have the free will to hold certain beliefs. If someone wants to become a Catholic, he must become a catechumen firstly till he receive the Sacrament of Baptism. A catechumen will learn about the teachings of the Catholic Church through the catechumenate process. This process also grows faith when he begins to practice it in every life. In addition, the faith growth of catechumen is related to the results of a comprehensive interaction between inputs; process; and output, namely through the pre-catechumenate, catechumenate, and the Sacrament of Baptism. In operational management, the faith growth of catechumen shows that learning about the Catholic Church creates Christian values within them. This is because there is a transformation process in their respective lives, where initially they have different belief backgrounds (input) until finally they receive the Sacrament of Baptism and are welcomed as part of the Catholic Church (output). This article will show the results of the analysis regarding the faith growth of catechumen in St. John Gabriel Perboyre Surabaya Station class of 2023-2024 reviewed through operational management (input; process; and output).
Le Worms juif dans les réseaux urbains et seigneuriaux du Rhin supérieur septentrional (env. 1000 à 1350)
Authors: Bönnen Gerold , Certin Aude-Marie
Published: December 2024

L’article donne un aperçu des étapes clés du développement de la communauté juive dans la ville épiscopale de Worms depuis le tournant du millénaire jusqu’aux environs de 1349-50. L’accent est mis sur la proximité avec les évêques et, depuis 1090, avec les empereurs et les rois, ainsi que sur la large autonomie accordée en 1090, puis renouvelée, en matière d’affaires intérieures. Dans le cas de Worms, ce qui est caractéristique, ce sont les liens étroits avec les communautés voisines, en particulier Mayence et Spire. Cette coopération, qui s’est traduite par l’alliance des communautés de SchUM dès le Moyen Âge central, a eu une grande importance à long terme pour la vie juridique des communautés juives bien au-delà du Rhin supérieur.
Le quartier juif médiéval de Strasbourg : bilan et perspectives
Authors: Banoun Manon
Published: December 2024

Cet article propose un état des lieux des connaissances sur le ou les quartiers juifs médiévaux de Strasbourg par la relecture critique des données publiées sur le sujet. Deux communautés juives se sont établies à Strasbourg au Moyen Âge : une première jusqu’en 1349 et une seconde dans les dernières décennies du XIVe siècle. Cela pose plusieurs questions : les juiveries des deux communautés strasbourgeoises étaient-elles implantées sur le même espace ? Étaient-elles organisées différemment ? Comportaient-elles le même nombre d’équipements, et ces derniers étaient-ils de même nature ? Nous verrons que la confusion est grande en ce qui concerne ces différents aspects, notamment à propos de la localisation précise de la ou des synagogues. Après un bref rappel historique, l’article tentera dans un premier temps de préciser la localisation et l’évolution chronologique des différents ensembles communautaires juifs probables. Il s’intéressera ensuite à l’organisation interne de l’un de ces ensembles à partir de la reprise de données textuelles et archéologiques.
Juifs imaginaires et juifs réels dans la cité
Authors: Wenner Carole
Published: December 2024

Alors que Strasbourg est en pleine expansion au XIIIe siècle, la ville accueille en son sein une communauté juive prospère, à l’instar d’autres villes rhénanes. Si les juifs côtoient les chrétiens dans l’espace urbain, il convient d’interroger les sources pour appréhender la place qui leur est réellement accordée, à une époque où l’antijudaïsme croît et où les conditions d’existence deviennent toujours plus difficiles. Qui du juif maléfique de l’imaginaire chrétien ou du voisin juif a le plus droit de cité au Moyen Âge dans Strasbourg ?
Les chroniques des croisades dans la mémoire collective des communautés ashkénazes : une conscience anhistorique ?
Authors: Gutman René
Published: December 2024

Dans le sillage de la première croisade (1096) et de la deuxième (1146-1149), des communautés juives en France et en Rhénanie ont été persécutées par des croisés suivis par des paysans et des bandes armées de diverses origines en route pour la Terre sainte. Des chroniqueurs juifs ont laissé des récits de ces événements, qu’il s’agit ici de traduire et de présenter, à la fois comme des documents historiques qu’ils sont et aussi du fait de leur valeur mémorielle, renforcée par le style qu’ils adoptent et par l’interprétation théologique inédite qu’ils défendent des martyres et des suicides.
Suporte ao luto por Covid-19 no contexto hospitalar público brasileiro
Authors: Gomes Louise , Lee Henrique
Published: December 2024

Com a pandemia no Brasil, a experiência de perdas em massa provocou vivências complexas de luto. Para a área da saúde, tornou-se um desafio reorganizar o serviço em meio ao contexto de distanciamento social e a sobrecarga de trabalho. Visto isso, para compreender o cenário de promoção de saúde ao enlutamento por covid-19, buscou-se realizar um levantamento das intervenções de suporte ao luto utilizadas nos ambientes hospitalares públicos brasileiros, nos anos 2020 e 2021. Para tanto, realizou-se uma revisão sistemática da literatura com buscas nas plataformas SciELO, PePsic, BVS/LILACS, Periódicos Capes, DOAJ e Google Acadêmico. Observou-se que a estratégia mais utilizada a fim de minimizar os impactos emocionais foi a escuta ativa, viabilizada por meio do acolhimento e suporte emocional. O uso de Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação também se apresentou como recurso essencial, fato que destaca a importância da criação de medidas alternativas em contextos de urgência. Ademais, percebeu-se o luto antecipado como uma das demandas centrais diante do contexto de restrições de visitas hospitalares e limitação de despedidas. Por último, a fim de favorecer possíveis reformulações da atenção em saúde, faz-se importante a continuação de investigações que visem compreender o fenômeno do luto por covid-19 e mapeamento de intervenções.
Analisis Perang Umat Islam dari Masa Nabi hingga Dinasti Abbasiyah: Dari Pertahanan Diri hingga Perang Saudara
Authors: Ghafrin Zul , Syauqii Fachri
Published: December 2024

This study analyzes the dynamics of wars that occurred in the history of the Islamic community, starting from the time of Prophet Muhammad to the Abbasid Dynasty. The study aims to understand how wars that initially focused on self-defense evolved into more complex internal conflicts, including civil wars. Using a historical and critical approach, this research explores the factors that drove this shift, including political, social, and religious influences. The findings of this study indicate that although the wars were initially motivated by the principle of defense against external threats, over time, various political interests and divisions within the Islamic community triggered internal conflicts, leading to civil wars. This research provides insights into the long-term impact of these conflicts on political and social developments in Islamic history.
Analisis Dampak Arabisasi pada Masa Dinasti Umayyah di Timur: Perspektif Sosial dan Politik (661-750 M)
Authors: Maysaroh Maysaroh
Published: December 2024

Arabization, or ta'rib, refers to the process of making something entirely Arabic or as Arabic as possible. This process was integral to the development of Arabic language and culture during the Umayyad Dynasty in the eastern regions. The Arabization movement involved replacing the administrative languages with Arabic; initially, Arabic replaced Greek in the Arab-controlled areas of Damascus, and later, it replaced Persian in Iraq and the eastern provinces. Arabic currency was also introduced during this period. The movement, which reached its culmination during the Umayyad dynasty, had significant impacts on various sectors. Conditions favorable to Arabization were established under Caliph Abdul Malik ibn Marwan, who is considered a key figure in this process. This study employs a historical method with a focus on library research. The analysis relies on historical documents and books regarding Arabization and its effects. The study uses an outline evaluation approach for analyzing the data, guided by a multidimensional theoretical framework. The concept of causality is applied to understand the motivations behind and consequences of the Arabization movement.

Albert Vigoleis Thelen und die Iberische Halbinsel
Authors: Reißner Alexander
Published: December 2024

The work of writer Albert Vigoleis Thelen (1903–1989) is almost unrivalled in the German literary landscape. It is certain that Thelen, as a cosmopolitan and frequent reader, was inspired by several trends at once. He eagerly quoted mystics, German writers and philosophers. He benefited greatly from Dutch literature and its representatives, with whom Thelen was in lively dialogue. However, this comparative study follows the thesis that the pivotal point for Thelenʼs understanding of literature is to be found on the Iberian Peninsula and in particular in his critical dialogue with the Portuguese poet and mystic Teixeira de Pascoaes (1877–1952), with whom he was also in personal contact.

Through analysing three case study exhibitions – the Origin of Human Beings exhibition at Beijing Natural History Museum, the exhibition at Zhoukoudian Site Museum, and the Ancient China exhibition at the National Museum of China – it reveals the significant role of the history of Chinese palaeoanthropology in shaping current exhibitions on human evolution, with museological and legislative requirements playing a secondary role.
Unfallalgorithmen
Authors: Schäffner Vanessa
Published: December 2024

Self-driving vehicles are one of today’s most significant disruptive technologies. This research is dedicated to the ethical discourse of specific unavoidable accident scenarios, addressing the ethical design of crash algorithms. Building on a critique of existing approaches, an alternative perspective is outlined which integrates contextual factors, decision-theoretical parameters, and metaethical arguments. It utilises concepts from ethics of risk in order to emphasize normative implications for previously unresolved ethical questions. Finally, drawing upon a deontological framework from ethics of risk, the reasonableness and fairness of reciprocal risk imposition are justified as central criteria of a coherent risk practice.
Wie werde ich Europäerin? Wie werde ich Europäer?
Authors: Müller-Pelzer Werner
Published: December 2024

Europe is no longer able to recognize itself because it is looking into a mirror – the EU – that was built by itself, but which reflects a deformed image of itself. As a global player, the EU distorts its internal relationship with the economic policy distinction between winners and losers. Müller-Pelzer counters this with the reality of a Europe that opens up as the affective space of a pre-reflective, corporeal subjectivity. As an example, the MONTAIGNE program shows how this Europe affects Europeans with emotional atmospheres through phenomenologically guided immersion in an unknown European "brother language" (Trabant) by settling into "implanting situations" (Schmitz).
Parlamentarismus
Authors: Marschall Stefan
Published: December 2024

Parliamentarism is a globally widespread form of the organisation and legitimation of political rule. Parliaments can be found on various political levels and in countless political systems—not only in democratic ones. This book deals fundamentally and comprehensively with this centuries-old form of organisation, which is constantly being reformed. Among other things, the history and theory of parliamentarism, the organisation and functioning of parliaments, their functions, and criticism of parliamentarism are addressed, taking into account the most recent developments and research. In the conclusion, the future of parliamentarism is considered and the contours of a ‘neo-parliamentary age’ are sketched.
Doppelte Innenentwicklung durch Städtebaurecht
Authors: Dahmen Ursula
Published: December 2024

The utilisation of land for settlement and transport purposes represents a persistent challenge. To circumvent the utilisation of near-natural areas, urban development is progressively founded upon the inner development concept. This prioritises the utilisation of already developed land potential. The dual internal development concept extends this to encompass green space planning. In this context, the legal instruments of general and special urban development law for implementing (dual) inner city development are analysed and evaluated. Special urban development law, in particular, facilitates the utilisation of existing buildings. Additionally, the supplementary potential of landscape planning is also included.

Hasskriminalität und Kommunalpolitik
Authors: Zehendner Johannes
Published: December 2024

Demonstrative and violent hatred of the state and its representatives is one of the greatest threats to democracy. Local politicians are often the targets of such symbolic offences. This study analyzes the legal and social challenges of effectively protecting these elected officials. In this context, the Criminal Code – which has significantly been reformed by the Act to Combat Right-Wing Extremism and Hate Crime – and the Constitution as well as aspects of the Federal Registration Act and Weapons Act (to uphold the ultima ratio principle) and extra-legal approaches are investigated. From an empirical perspective, echo chamber and filter bubble effects in social media – with a focus on anti-state delegitimisation – are examined.

The Great Lakes Depression in northwestern Mongolia contains widespread Late Neogene continental deposits, reaching thicknesses of several hundred metres. The Late Neogene Khyargas Nuur formation (also known as the Khirgis-Nur formation) has a significant biostratigraphic value for Central Asia, as it encompasses a unique palaeontological record and has a wide geographical distribution in the region. The stratotype of this formation was described in the Khyargas Nuur 2 (=Khirgis-Nur-2) section on the northern shore of Khyargas Lake. Bio- and magnetostratigraphic studies conducted in the 1970s and 1980s identified the Miocene-Pliocene boundary (corresponding to the Turolian and Ruscinian biochrons) within Unit A, or the Lower Khyargas Nuur subformation. This study aims to refine the age and stratigraphic subdivisions of the Khyargas Nuur formation in light of new data. Examination of the geology of the Lower Khyargas Nuur Subformation stratotype, along with a revision of the associated mammalian assemblage (carnivores, ungulates, and rodents), supports the conclusion that this faunal complex corresponds to the Late Turolian (MN13) of the continental biochronological scale, thus assigning this section to the terminal Miocene. These findings provide new insights into the geological history of the Great Lakes Depression and the faunal history of Central Asia.

The Cheka pluton, located in the Magnitogorsk megazone of the Southern Urals and composed of the alkaline granitoids, is meridionally elongated (1–2)×6.5 km. The fracture and anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility analysis was made on the Cheka pluton for the first time. The study materials comprise fracture measurements and core samples. The fractures were classified as either prototectonic or tectonic using the Stereonet software. The prototectonic fractures were classified into three standard types in accordance with the system proposed by G. Cloos: S, Q, and L. The system of tectonic fractures corresponds to the Riedel model, which confirms the formation of the pluton as a dextral magmatic strike-slip duplex supposed earlier. The analysis of magnetic mineralogy revealed that the most prevalent magnetic mineral is fine- to-medium-grained magnetite. Using the anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility data, the main direction of melt flow during the formation of the pluton was determined to be 36° NE. This direction is in close alignment with the orientation of one of the prototectonic fracture systems, which has a strike azimuth of 39° NE. The constructed complex structure model indicates that the Triassic granitoid plutons of the Magnitogorsk megazone were most likely formed during the right-lateral transpression, associated with a local strike-slip fault-related extension zone. These conditions are generally consistent with the Triassic rifting and dextral strike-slip motion in the Southern Urals.

Ice mounds are widespread cryogenic landforms that occur during freezing of water-saturated sediments and in ice segregation or ice injection with the formation of ice cores. Complex mechanisms of occurrence of these landforms have their own characteristics depending on the type of enclosing sediments, water and gas saturation, freezing rate, and other factors. Ice formation processes are often accompanied by explosions of the central part with the occurrence of negative landforms. In response to the widespread occurrence of perennially frozen gas-saturated rocks, these processes are accompanied by gas emissions, gas inflammation. and other, less intense gas shows. It is quite difficult in these conditions to determine the causes of the catastrophic phenomenon, to reconstruct the dynamics of the process, and to understand the role of gas-saturated fluids. In this paper, an attempt has been made to determine the ice formation conditions using isotopic techniques. The isotopic composition of ice can reflect the conditions of ice formation at the time of occurrence of ice mounds and its related possibility of participation of gas-saturated fluids from deep-lying gas-bearing horizons [Buddo et al., 2023, 2024]. The composition of stable isotopes δD and δ18O was determined for three ice mounds in the south of the Yamal Peninsula, where there were catastrophic explosions of ice mounds with the formation of large craters. The results of the study made it possible to reconstruct the conditions of ice mound occurrence and to determine different ice formation modes.
Isometric Exercise for Blood Pressure and Endothelial Function in Metabolic Syndrome: A Review
Authors: Afshar Naseri Mohammad Bagher
Published: December 2024

Context: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is characterized by a cluster of metabolic disorders, including hypertension, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia, which collectively heighten the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The global prevalence of MetS is steadily increasing, paralleling the rise in obesity and sedentary lifestyles. Pharmacological treatments for MetS often face challenges such as inadequate blood pressure (BP) control and limited improvements in cardiovascular outcomes. Consequently, there is a growing emphasis on non-pharmacological interventions, particularly exercise. Among various exercise modalities, isometric resistance training (IRT), which involves static muscle contractions without joint movement, has emerged as a promising strategy for effectively lowering BP and enhancing endothelial function, both of which are critical for cardiovascular health. Evidence Acquisition: This comprehensive literature review synthesizes existing research on the effects of isometric exercise on BP regulation and endothelial function in individuals diagnosed with MetS. The review examines studies sourced from databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, focusing on randomized controlled trials, meta-analyses, and observational studies published in peer-reviewed journals. Key discussion areas include the underlying physiological mechanisms of IRT, comparisons with other exercise modalities, clinical implications, and recommendations for future research. Articles were selected based on qualitative and descriptive reviews. Results: Evidence indicates that isometric resistance training effectively reduces both systolic and diastolic BP, achieving results comparable to other exercise forms like aerobic and dynamic resistance training. Furthermore, IRT has significantly improved endothelial function, particularly among populations with MetS. These physiological benefits are attributed to mechanisms such as enhanced nitric oxide bioavailability, reduced oxidative stress, and improved autonomic regulation. Conclusions: The review supports the integration of isometric exercise into hypertension management protocols, especially for individuals with MetS. Isometric resistance training offers a viable non-pharmacological alternative or adjunct to traditional treatments, with the added advantages of accessibility and adaptability for diverse populations. However, further research is necessary to optimize exercise protocols, determine long-term outcomes, and fully elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the cardiovascular benefits of IRT.

V tomto článku se věnuji prezentaci jednoho aspektu výsledků svého empirického šetření pro moji disertační práci. Ve svojí práci se věnuji tématu sebereflexe. Tento jev se v průběhu druhé poloviny dvacátého století stal jednak inspirací pro různé teorie fungování sociálních jevů, ale také součástí antropologické metodologie, kde měla reflexivita demaskovat osobní vliv výzkumníka na výslednou podobu textu. Reflexivita sebou ovšem nese jisté paradoxy a problémy, které by mohly zpochybnit validitu jejího užití. Jeden z těchto problémů fungování sebereflexe v praktickém slova smyslu ilustruji v tomto příspěvku. Tvoření reflexí je zde představeno jako mechanismus tvorby identity a práce na jejích proměnách
The Specifics of the Crime of Defamation of Nation, Race and Beliefs in Socialist Czechoslovakia (in Contemporary Application Practice)
Authors: Dobeš Milan
Published: December 2024

The crime of defamation of nation, race and belief is still one of the institutions by which states ensure peaceful coexistence between their citizens. This offence was similarly regulated in the criminal legislation of socialist Czechoslovakia. One of its most distinctive features, characteristic of the entire communist rule, was the protection of supporters of the socialist social and state system. This regulation also de facto ensured the criminalization of public criticism of the Communist Party, its policies and also their representatives. This paper summarizes the normative regulation of this criminal offence from the communist seizure of power in 1948 to the fall of this totalitarian regime and the changes that occurred in Czechoslovak criminal law in 1990. The paper also uses examples from the contemporary application practice of the District Court for Prague 1.
SOFT TISSUE EXPANSION FOR TENSION FREE CLOSURE OF FLAP DURING
GUIDEDBONE REGENERATION - A CASE REPORT
Authors: Kaarthikeyan Gurumoorthy , Kavarthapu Avinash
Published: December 2024

The compromised alveolar ridges preclude the placement of dental implants. The major problem with the regenerative procedures like block grafting, guided bone regeneration is flap opening during the initial healing period and exposure of the regenerative compartment. There is necessity for the tension free closure of the flap without relieving the periosteum or mucosa is required for the successful regeneration. The self-inflating osmotic tissue expander (Osmed) is used to expand the tissue prior to augmentation procedure. This report elaborates about the use of self-filling osmotic expander in severely compromised alveolar ridge defect cases (combined defect) prior to the augmentation procedure. The report concludes that the self-filling osmotic expander is a valuable tool in the efficient management of soft tissues prior to augmentation of severely compromised alveolar ridge cases.
Creating a Reliable Zebrafish Model for Studying Inflammation: Exploring the Therapeutic Potential of Xanthohumol

Published: December 2024

Inflammation is the body's natural immune response to pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria, and parasites, and is closely linked to oxidative stress caused by an imbalance in reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidants. Chronic inflammation can lead to diseases and cancer. Due to the side effects of synthetic anti-inflammatory drugs such as NSAIDs and corticosteroids, natural compounds such as flavonoids are gaining interest. This study aimed to validate the zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a model for studying inflammation and to compare the anti-inflammatory effects of xanthohumol with ibuprofen and quercetin. Using lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and copper sulfate (CuSO₄) to induce inflammation, zebrafish larvae provided an excellent model. The study determined the lethal doses (LD50) of several substances, with xanthohumol having an LD50 of 2.659 µg/ml, ibuprofen 15 µg/ml, and quercetin 200 µM. Exposure to xanthohumol at 2 µg/ml before LPS administration significantly improved larval survival, maintaining 80% viability compared to 25% with LPS alone. Additionally, xanthohumol reduced IL-1 levels by over twofold and increased IL-10 expression, demonstrating its anti-inflammatory effects. Xanthohumol also protected against oxidative stress induced by CuSO₄, significantly reducing cell damage compared to controls. These results highlight xanthohumol’s strong protective and anti-inflammatory properties.

Pensée magique, superstition, croyances irrationnelles : répondre à l’absurde
Authors: Herd Katarzyna , Sonntag Albrecht
Published: December 2024

La superstition et la pensée magique sont omniprésentes dans le football, quel que soit le contexte culturel. Afin de mieux comprendre le lien étroit entre ce jeu et les croyances irrationnelles, l’article mobilise, en partant de l’analyse de quelques confessions de fans superstitieux, les réponses fournies par l’anthropologie, la philosophie de l’absurde, et la sociologie des religions. Il conclut sur le rôle, essentiel bien que peu théorisé, que joue l’ironie dans la construction de la connivence des superstitieux du football, outil précieux dans la tentative d’apprivoiser l’incertitude insupportable, non seulement celle du jeu, mais aussi celle de la condition humaine.

Authors: Anggraini Titik , Maryati Tutik
Published: December 2024

This study aims to evaluate the flexibility and water absorption of the skin of oil-tanned rabbits / zeemler with different percentages of castor oil. A total of 9 pieces of rabbit skin were randomly divided into 3 treatments with 3 replications. The treatment given was the percentage of castor oil (15%), medium (20%) and high (25%). Variables observed included weakness and water absorption. The data collected was analyzed by analysis of variance followed by Duncan's New Multiple Range Test. The results showed that the suppleness of oil tanned leather with the percentage of 15% and 25% castor oil was higher (P>0.05) than the percentage of 20%. The percentage of 15% castor oil resulted in a higher water absorption than the percentages of 20% and 25%. It was concluded that the quality of the zeemler rabbit skin tanned with castor oil met the Indonesian National Standard No 06-1752-1990. The use of various castor oil had no effect on the results of the Zeemler skin moisture absorption and skin elasticity tests.
