Published: February 2025

B a c k g r o u n d . The article is devoted to the analysis of the idea of Ukrainian statehood in the historical works of Taras Shevchenko. The relevance of the writer's poetry for the formation of the national worldview and national identity of the Ukrainian people is determined. The idea of statehood is represented as a concept, which is based on historical traditions and the struggle for freedom and independence. The attention is focused on T. Shevchenko's formation of the idea of the state tradition, its evolution in different cultural and historical eras.
M e t h o d s . The article uses such aspects of the general scientific research method as synthesis and generalization. Philological and historical-literary research methods are also used.
R e s u l t s . Taras Shevchenko's view of the heroic past of the Ukrainian people and its modernity is reflected in the works "Night of Taras", "To Osnovyanenko" and "Ivan Pidkova". Special attention is paid to the poem "Haydamaki", which highlights the events of Koliivshchyna, which is a symbol of the struggle for national will and social justice. The article also examines the issue of religious tension between Orthodox and Unitarian churches, which was the basis of numerous social conflicts. Under the conditions of the absence of their own statehood, the idea of the religious unity of the people became especially important.
The work emphasizes the importance of the ideas of struggle and self-determination for the formation of the national identity and worldview of the Ukrainian people. Ukrainian and Polish historiography on the events of the Koliivshchyna are compared, and the significance of the Haydamak movement for Ukrainian national self-awareness is emphasized. In Polish historical science, the haidamachyna is a negative phenomenon, but in Ukrainian folklore, haidamaki is a symbol of the protection of their people, an image of the struggle for the will of Ukrainians.
C o n c l u s i o n s . In Taras Shevchenko's work, the idea of Ukrainian statehood is dynamic and changing. It reflects the author's evolutionary way and life view. This idea was artistically formed by the writer at different stages of his life and work – from serfdom to freedom, from imprisonment – to the return to freedom. The idea of Ukrainian statehood reveals the essence of Kobzar himself and the character of his era.

Predictive Analysis of the Mortality Rate of Patients with Heart Failure Complicated by Acute Kidney Failure Based on the Fluid Balance: A Retrospective Study Using the MIMIC-IV Database
Authors: Jingmei Liu
Published: February 2025

Background. Heart failure (HF) is a global health issue, and its complication with acute kidney failure (AKF) increases the risk of mortality. This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of fluid balance for mortality in patients with HF complicated by AKF. A retrospective analysis was performed using the MIMIC-IV database to evaluate the relationship between fluid balance and mortality in patients with HF complicated by AKF.Material and methods. Adult patients with HF and AKF and who were listed in the MIMIC-IV database between 2008 and 2019 were included. The patients were divided into survival and non-survival groups. The primary outcome measure was fluid intake and output in the first three days in the intensive care unit (ICU). The main outcome being in-ICU mortality and the secondary outcome being 28‑day mortality after ICU admission. A multivariable Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess the relationship between fluid balance and the risk of death, after adjusting for potential confounding factors.Results. A total of 1433 eligible patients were included. The study found that compared to the death group, patients in the survival group maintained lower positive balance on day 1 (453.51 ml vs 1813.66 ml), negative balance on day 2 (-246.75 ml vs 646.00 ml), and negative balance on day 3 (-350.21 ml vs 312.92 ml). Additionally, fluid balance on the first day predicted ICU mortality rate (AUC 0.658, p<0.01), on the second day it predicted ICU mortality rate (AUC 0.654, p<0.01), and on the third day it also predicted ICU mortality rate (AUC 0.634, p<0.01).Conclusion. Positive fluid balance in patients with HF and AKF is independently associated with higher in-hospital mortality. Monitoring and managing fluid balance may provide clinicians with an important tool to improve patient outcomes.

Authors: Chen Jieruo , Wang Zefeng , Hang Fei , Wu Yongquan
Published: February 2025

Background. Traditional right ventricular pacing (RVP) can lead to asynchronous cardiac mechanical contractions and increase the risk of adverse cardiac events. This study aimed to compare the clinical complications between left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP), which is both novel and physiological, and RVP in a cohort requiring ventricular pacing.Material and methods. A retrospective study was conducted on patients with initial implantation of a dual-chamber, permanent pacemaker and with ventricular pacing proportion more than 20 % from January 2019 to December 2020. Patients were divided into the LBBAP or RVP group and follow-up was conducted routinely. The primary outcome was ventricular lead complications, including an increase in the ventricular lead threshold or a decrease in R-wave amplitude. Overall complications were defined as ventricular lead complications, ventricular lead dislocation, ventricular lead perforation, adverse cardiovascular events and cardiovascular death.Results. A total of 248 patients were included in the analysis (LBBAP, n=98; RVP, n=150). The pacing QRS duration in LBBAP patients was significantly shorter than in RVP patients (110.3±22.7 vs 140.0±29.3 ms, p<0.01). For a mean follow-up duration of 13 mos, the risk of ventricular lead complications was higher in the LBBAP group than in the RVP group (62.0 % vs. 36.5 %, p=0.03). LBBAP was comparable to RVP within one year follow-up when considering overall complications. At the one year follow-up ultrasound examinations, the LA in LBBAP group was decreased (p=0.04). Considering the larger initial left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD) in the LBBAP group, the similarity of LVEDD values in both groups at follow-up suggested that LVEDD was reduced in patients treated with LBBAP. There was no difference in left ventricular ejection fraction (LBBAP LVEF, baseline = 61.2±8.6 %) between the two groups at baseline or follow-up.Conclusions. LBBAP patients were more prone to ventricular lead threshold increase and amplitude decrease than RVP patients. The risk of overall complications in the two pacing modalities were equal in one year follow-up duration. LBBAP is safe and effective in patients with VP>20 % and without seriously depressed LVEF.
Organizational Support and Work Engagement: Onsite, Hybrid, and Remote Work during COVID-19
Authors: Selander Kirsikka , Alasoini Tuomo
Published: February 2025

We analyzed the association of job autonomy, mental demands, and organizational support on work engagement and the moderating role of organizational support between mental demands and work engagement. We also examined differences in these factors among onsite, hybrid, and remote workers during the COVID-19 pandemic using data from the Finnish MEADOW survey.Results showed that the remote workers had highest job autonomy, but no other significant differences were found. Job autonomy was positively associated with work engagement, while mental demands had a negative association with it. Organizational support had the strongest positive association with work engagement, and it was able to moderate the negative association betweenmental demands and work engagement. We conclude that the remote work cannot be classified as good or bad; rather, the question is more on how work is organized and managed. The new environment where remote work is increasingly done, however, presents several challenges for managers and supervisors.

Published: February 2025

Maize (Zea mays L.) generates profitability for rural producers, but grain productivity is still limited due to factors such as choosing a hybrid resistant to the main diseases that cause foliar and pre-harvest damage. Thus, the objective was to evaluate the agronomic performance and the reaction to the attack of brown eye spot, white spot, ear rot complex and the health of grains of maize hybrids. The experimental design was randomized blocks (DBC), with treatments consisting of eight maize hybrids (DKB 390, DKB 230, DKB 177, 30F53, KWS 9110, KWS 9006, KWS 9004 and Supremo), in five replications. The evaluated traits were: severity (%) of foliar and ear diseases, incidence (%) of pathogens in grains, plant and ear height, yield, weight of 100 grains and final stand. There were significant differences among the hybrids for plant height (PH), yield (Y), and 100-grain weight (GW). The most severe foliar damages were caused by Cercospora zeae-maydis and Pantoea ananatis. Fusarium graminearum showed an incidence of over 80% in grains, except for DKB 390 and KWS 9110. Hybrids DKB 177 and KWS 9006 showed high grain productivity and satisfactory levels of disease resistance.

Published: February 2025

Background: Glioblastoma is a prevalent and challenging malignant brain tumor. Secretome therapy using human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) appears to be a promising treatment for glioblastoma. This study analyzed the potential of the hUCMSC secretomes (hUCMSCs-sec) for glioma therapy.
Materials and Methods: Characterization of hUCMSCs was performed by examining certain markers, including CD44, CD90, CD105, CD73, CD13, CD19, CD14, CD45, CD34, and HLA-D. The cells’ ability to differentiate into adipocytes, chondrocytes, and osteocytes was evaluated. Cytotoxic effect on Glioblastoma (GBM) cells was analyzed using 2-[2-methoxy-4-nitrophenyl]-3-[4-nitrophenyl]-5-[2,4-disulfophenyl]-2H-tetrazolium (WST-8). mRNA relative expression, including homeobox (HOXA5, HOXB1, HOXC9 and HOXC10), insulin-like growth factor binding protein 2 (IGFBP2), Extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK), Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and Caspase 3 (Casp3), were quantified by quantitative Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR).
Results: The hUCMSCs-sec was successfully isolated and identified, showing positive markers and its capacity to differentiate into chondrocytes, adipocytes, and osteocytes. hUCMSCs-sec exerted a cytotoxic effect on GBM cells and upregulated the expression of Casp3, whereas it decreased the expression of HOX, IGFBP2, EGFR, and ERK in GBM cells.
Conclusion: The secretomes from hUCMSCs show potential for GBM cell therapy by improving the deregulation of HOX, inducing apoptosis, and inhibiting cell proliferation genes.

Published: February 2025

Background: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has long been a curative intervention for acute leukemia, though outcomes in older patients remain suboptimal due to higher non-relapse mortality (NRM) and relapse rates. Innovations in conditioning regimens and supportive care have made HSCT accessible to patients over 50, but age-related disparities in outcomes persist.
Materials and Methods: This 10-year retrospective cohort study reviewed all patients who underwent first-time allogeneic HSCT for acute leukemia. Patients were stratified by age at HSCT (≥ 50 years and < 50 years), and outcomes were assessed for overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), NRM, and relapse incidence (RI).
Results: Of the 1199 patients, 152 were 50 years or older. Five-year OS rates were markedly lower in patients ≥ 50 years compared to younger patients (48.70% vs. 59.35%; P= 0.024 for AML and 23.60% vs. 41.96%; P= 0.025 for ALL). Moreover, older patients demonstrated significantly higher NRM rates (35.95% vs. 23.53%; P= 0.045 for AML and 78.14% vs. 26.76%; P= 0.005 for ALL) and a notably increased incidence of grade III-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD). Interestingly, no significant differences were observed between the two age groups regarding DFS rates and RI.
Conclusion: Older acute leukemia patients undergoing allogeneic HSCT face significant challenges, including elevated NRM and GVHD rates. While relapse rates were comparable, survival outcomes favored the younger cohort. These findings emphasize the need for age-adapted transplantation strategies, using reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens and further research to refine risk stratification and improve management approaches for older patients.
Comprehensive review of preclinical evaluation strategies for COVID-19 vaccine candidates: assessing immunogenicity, toxicology, and safety profiles

Published: February 2025

Following the worldwide spread of Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), there is a vital require- ment for safe and effective vaccines against Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Therefore, several vaccine-candidate platforms have been designed, tested, and developed. Based on guidelines, preclinical studies are recommended to assess the safety and potency of COVID-19 vaccines in appropriate in vitro and in vivo settings. These studies provide essential infor- mation to describe the potential toxic properties of a vaccine and the formulation of vaccine agents during the preclinical trial phase. In toxicology studies, several factors must be considered, such as the appropriate animal species and strains, dosing timetable, mode of administration, time of sampling for biochemistry and antibody evaluation, and necropsy. Pharmacoki- netic/ biodistribution studies are not usually required for infectious disease prophylaxis vaccines unless the vaccine contains a novel substance. Evaluating their biodistribution is crucial for newly developed vaccines, such as lipid nanoparticles –mes- senger RNA (LNP-mRNA), DNA, and Viral vectors in non-replicated (VVnr), or recombinant virus vaccines. The review highlights the importance of preclinical studies in assessing the safety and efficacy of vaccine candidates. This guidance is essential for researchers and manufacturers to design effective vaccines that can progress to clinical trials safely.

Published: February 2025

Background and Objectives: SARS CoV2 has tropism for various tissues, including the respiratory tract, brain, endothe- lium, heart, kidney and liver. Neurological symptoms can also be seen in the clinical course of the disease, and anosmia is the most common. The main objective of our study was to examine the urinary amino acid profiles of moderately severe patients diagnosed with COVID-19 with a positive RT-PCR test and try to find metabolic changes associated with the infec- tion. Also, it was aimed to investigate the neuroinhibitory Gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) levels in order to examine the physiopathology.
Materials and Methods: Thirty adult cases who were followed up in the infection clinic with positive SARS CoV 2 RT-PCR and diagnosed with COVID 19 disease were included in the study with consent. The amino acid profile of these patients' urine samples, 30 different amino acid levels and creatine levels were examined using the liquid chromatography-mass spec- trometry (LCMS) method on the SCIEX QTRAP 4500 device.
Results: The mean age of the patients is 40 ± 5. Elevated GABA in 28/30 cases, high hydroxylysine amino acid in 27/30 cases, low glycine in 30/30 cases were detected in the urine. The creatinine levels of the patients were found to be normal.
Conclusion: It has been thought that the height of GABA may be due to bacteria producing GABA as a result of the change in microbiota due to lactic acidosis, as well as that the virus may directly affect the brain and cause an increase in GABA.

Published: February 2025

Background and Objectives: Colorectal cancer is considered as one of the most common cancers in the world and Iran. Epidemiological studies are necessary to evaluate the trend of this disease in society. This study aimed to describe the incidence and trend of colorectal cancer in 13 years in Shahroud and Meyami districts, Iran.
Methods: The data were obtained from the population-based cancer registry system at Shahroud University of Medical Sciences, including patients in Shahroud and Meyami districts. The standardized incidence rate (ASR) was calculated based on age and gender, and the 13-year trend from 2010 to 2022 was calculated using joinpoint regression along with the percentage of annual changes.
Results: In general, 543 cases of colorectal cancer were recorded from 2010 to 2022, including 280 (51.6%) males and 263 (48.4%) females. The most recorded cases of this cancer were in 2021 with 54 cases. The Age-standardized mean incidence rate of colorectal cancer in this period was 17.6 per 100,000 people. The ASR of colorectal cancer in males and females was 18.4 (95%CI: 16.2 - 20.6) and 16.8 (95% CI: 14.8 - 18.9), respectively. The annual percent change of ASR during the study period was 2.33% (95% CI: 0.13 – 4.87), indicating an increasing trend.
Conclusion: In the Shahroud and Meyami districts, the incidence rate of colorectal cancer was 17.6 per 100,000 people and has increased relatively over the 13-year study period.
Predictors of major adverse events after stent implantation for atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis
Authors: Koca Fatih , Demir Ömer Furkan
Published: February 2025

Objectives: Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) is the most frequently seen cause of secondary hypertension (HT). ARAS associated with adverse cardiovascular events independently of other traditional cardiovascular risk factors, and increased mortality. Percutaneous transluminal renal arterial stenting (PTRS) is important methods in ARAS treatment. The aim of this study was to investigate major adverse events (MAE) and potential predictors in patients undergoing PTRS for ARAS by evaluating variables before and immediately after the procedure, including the SYNTAX score.
Methods: One hundred and five consecutive patients who underwent PTRS over a period of approximately 10 years were included in our study. Patients were divided into two groups, MAE negative (-) and MAE positive (+), according to the occurrence of MAE. After comparing both groups with difference tests, independent predictors were investigated with univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis. Afterwards, Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) analysis was performed on independent predictors.
Results: The average age of the patients was 63.32±11.62 years (range: 30-83 years) and 52 (49.5%) of them were male. Sixty-two patients constituted the MAE (-) and 43 the MAE (+) groups. In multivariate Cox regression analysis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and the total number of antihypertensives after the procedure were identified as independent predictors. As a result of the ROC analysis, a cutoff value of ≤55% for LVEF was determined to have area under the curve (AUC) 0.733, 69.8% sensitivity, and 77.42% specificity (P<0.001). The use of more than 3 antihypertensive drugs after the procedure was found to have AUC 0.624, 34.88% sensitivity, and 82.26% specificity (P=0.023).
Conclusions: LVEF, COPD, and the postprocedural total number of antihypertensives were independent predictors for MAE seen after PTRS in ARAS patients. These predictors can be used to estimate the risk in these patients. To be able to prevent adverse events, it is important that patients with these markers are treated and followed up more closely.
Hamlet (Un-)Masked: SPAC’s Hamlet under COVID-19 Restrictions
Authors: Tsukamoto Tomoka , Motohashi Ted
Published: February 2025

One of the reasons why Shakespeare’s Hamlet, as a play representing the essential problematics of Western Modernity, is still relevant today, is that it contains the cultural dynamics that ranges over issues around colonialism, patriarchy, and individual identities, all of which have been causes and consequences of the Western Modernity. More specifically, in the current context of the declining Western hegemony, symbolized by regional military conflicts and environmental degradation, among other crises, the urgency to freshly produce and interpret this play seems to be increasing. This essay attempts to question the significance of staging Hamlet today by examining Satoshi Miyagi’s version of the play at the Shizuoka Performing Arts Center (SPAC) in 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic, and through its analysis, we aim to reflect how Hamlet, while characterizing Western Modernity, harbors the potential to critique its essence.
Early Asselian cyanobacteria and algae in the organogenic buildups of the section «Pisanyi Kamen’» (Un’ya River, Northern Urals)
Authors: Matveeva N. , Ivanova R.
Published: February 2025

The paper presents the results of the study of the remains of cyanobacteria and calcareous algae of the Lower Permian organogenic buildups from the “Pisanyi Kamen’” section at the Un’ya River (Northern Urals). The microscopic study allowed extending taxonomic composition of Early Permian cyanobacteria and algae in the buildups: 3 genera of cyanobacteria, 12 genera of green algae, 2 genera of red algae and 4 genera of unclear systematic position were identified. It was revealed that representatives of green algae of the families Dasycladaceae and Cyclocrinaecae mainly participated in the formation of the first organogenic buildup, and algae of the Anchicodiaceae family participated in the second buildup. The established Asselian taxa of calcareous algae are cosmopolitan, therefore they may be important for the correlation of the Lower Permian West Ural sections.

El presente artículo versa sobre una experiencia educativa en el sureste mexicano, como una apuesta por reformular las finalidades de la escuela pública hacía un horizonte de libertad. Las prácticas educativas y la organización de la función escolar a partir de la praxis de un maestro bilingüe, El Sembrador, permite acercarnos a la irrupción heterotópica que muestra cómo la escuela alternativa ofrece un espacio diferente de construcción de conocimientos, donde florecen otros procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje que rompen la norma dominante de lo que implica hacer escuela y trasgreden el currículum formal. A modo de ensayo basado en un documental, este artículo describe las condiciones en las que se construyen bifurcaciones de la educación formal y cómo las prácticas de El Sembrador, como educador comprometido con el bien común, realizan acciones situadas que arrojan pistas sobre la transformación de la escuela en un espacio para la reproducción de la felicidad en los educandos.
The privatization and commercialization process of Argentinian universities: its causes and continuities
Authors:   Universidad de Buenos Aires, Argentina, Díaz de Guijarro Eduardo
Published: February 2025

A partir de un análisis de lo ocurrido en la educación superior y en el sistema científico de Argentina, en este artículo formularemos el interrogante de si los gobiernos de extrema derecha o neoliberales de las últimas décadas fueron los únicos responsables de su proceso de mercantilización o si existieron diversas causas concurrentes. Mostraremos que la política privatizadora tiene su origen en los grandes capitales y en los organismos financieros internacionales, que fueron apoyados por los gobiernos locales de derecha o neoliberales, y que, por otra parte, los regímenes de carácter progresista que se alternaron en el poder, si bien denunciaron esa tendencia y declararon su intención de atenuarla, no lograron tomar medidas significativas para revertirla. Plantearemos también la probabilidad de que un fenómeno similar haya ocurrido en otros países latinoamericanos.

Se analizaron las percepciones del profesorado de básica sobre el currículo con perspectiva humanista y el tipo de prácticas que le asocian. Se sustenta en el paradigma interpretativo, diseño fenomenológico, mediante cuestionario y entrevistas en profundidad. Participaron 87 docentes en el cuestionario y 20 en las entrevistas de las regiones norte y sureste de Chihuahua, México. Los resultados indican que el profesorado reconoce la importancia del humanismo en la educación y lo asocia con prácticas que consideran el reconocimiento de sus estudiantes como personas únicas, con realidades particulares; enseñanza más allá de lo cognitivo que procura el bienestar socioemocional; conciencia planetaria que trasciende de lo ecológico a la reflexión sobre problemas sociales; respeto a la diversidad, a través del trabajo colaborativo y desde una perspectiva de los Derecho Humanos. Se sugiere llevar este estudio a otros contextos para tener un panorama más amplio de este fenómeno presente en el mundo.

A mystery to be solved: perceptions of academic writing in the initial teacher training of primary school teachers
Authors:   Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas, Impróvola Maximiliano ,   Argentina.
Published: February 2025

En este artículo llevamos a cabo un análisis de los sentidos que en torno a la escritura académica producen cotidianamente los profesores y las estudiantes de un instituto de formación docente ubicado en el oeste del Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires. Adoptamos la perspectiva sociocultural de la lengua escrita de los Nuevos Estudios de Literacidad y, a través de un enfoque etnográfico, indagamos los modos en que las estudiantes de un Profesorado de Educación Primaria comprenden las demandas de lectura y escritura que les plantean sus profesores, así como los discursos sobre la escritura y su enseñanza con los que estos se alinean al ponderar los usos de la lengua escrita que realizan las estudiantes durante su primera formación como docentes. Señalamos que la escritura académica parece estar en el centro de un profundo desencuentro entre profesores y estudiantes: en tanto que los profesores atribuyen simultáneamente las dificultades de lectura y escritura de las estudiantes a la falta de destrezas para construir textos gramaticalmente correctos, al desconocimiento de las prácticas letradas propias del ámbito académico y al componente identitario y epistemológico que moldea su relación con la lengua escrita, las estudiantes tienden a asumir que los requerimientos de lectura y escritura de la formación docente configuran una especie de misterio a resolver y son el resultado de rasgos idiosincráticos y antojos personales de los profesores.

Esta investigación es de corte cualitativo y enfoque biográfico-narrativo cuyo objetivo es presentar las experiencias de vida de una profesora de preescolar frente al regreso a las actividades laborales presenciales. En la recolección de datos, se utilizaron entrevistas en profundidad, textos autobiográficos y la técnica de historia de vida. Los resultados mostraron la conciliación entre actividades escolares y domésticas que incluyen cuidado de hijas, tareas del hogar y se destacan redes de apoyo familiares y uso de estrategias, mientras que, en el aspecto profesional, encontramos la decisión de pausar temporalmente los estudios doctorales. Se concluye que la conciliación de las actividades en los diferentes roles desempeñados tuvo un efecto positivo para enfrentar el retorno a la presencialidad, lo que hace necesario que las autoridades educativas centren sus esfuerzos en desarrollar estrategias y políticas que garanticen la conciliación en los roles para el bienestar de las mujeres docentes.

Se realizó un estudio exploratorio, cuantitativo y cualitativo, en el Colegio Secundario Rural N° 5216 ubicado en Misión San Patricio (Salta), para describir las capacidades cognitivo-lingüísticas, a través de encuestas y entrevistas, de los/las estudiantes criollos y wichís. El estudiantado identificó positivamente al texto narrativo y expositivo, excepto al argumentativo, en el cual reconocieron la idea principal. En actividades de baja complejidad, se observó un mejor rendimiento en el género narrativo, y en las de complejidad el rendimiento fue bajo en general. Las/los estudiantes del ciclo orientado identificaron adecuadamente las superestructuras textuales y la idea principal (sólo en el texto expositivo) en comparación con el estudiantado del ciclo básico. En las entrevistas, manifestaron que les resultó mejor trabajar con textos narrativos, y más aún si son bilingües (wichís). Leer se resume en locución y dicción de los textos, siendo las mismas practicadas en la escuela solamente, en casi todos los casos. Esto podría deberse a factores educativos, lingüísticos, económicos y culturales.

Effect of acute low back pain on the risk of chronicity, functional disability and flexibility of the lumbar spine in CrossFit practitioners: Cross-sectional study
Authors: Sanchez Stephanie , Ribeiro Ana P. , Coelho Daniel B. , Souza Brenda L.
Published: February 2025

BACKGROUND:Nonspecific low back pain can become chronic over time. However, monitoring the chronicity of low back pain symptoms can be a major challenge for health professionals.
AIM:To verify the effect of acute low back pain on the risk of chronicity and on clinical-functional changes in the lumbar spine in CrossFit practitioners.
METHOD:A total of Sixty CrossFit practitioners were divided into two groups: the low back pain group–GL (n=30) and the control group–CG (n=30). The pain was assessed using the VAS and lumbar spine flexibility was assessed using the Schober and Stibor tests. The risk of chronic low back pain was assessed using the Start Back Screening Tool (SBST) questionnaire. The functionality of the lumbar spine was assessed using the Roland-Morris Disability Index questionnaire and the Quebec Back Pain Disability Questionnaire (QBPQ). An independent t-test was used to compare the measurements of the dependent variables between the groups.
RESULTS:CrossFit practitioners with low back pain (LBP) showed elevated scores on the Start Back Screening Tool (SBST), indicating a greater risk of chronicity compared to the pain-free control group. Functional disability assessments also revealed significant differences, with the LBP group scoring higher on the Rolland Morris and Quebec questionnaires, indicating greater disability. Both groups demonstrated similar thoracic and lumbar spine mobility and flexibility.
CONCLUSION:CrossFit practitioners with acute low back pain had a higher risk of chronicity and decreased functional disability when compared to the control group. Despite these differences, both groups demonstrated similar mobility and flexibility of the thoracic and lumbar spine.

O projeto “Fibras e Amidos de tubérculos ainda não comercializadas industrialmente” teve o objetivo de desenvolver a farinha de cará em casas de farinha tradicionais do município de Caapiranga (AM, Brasil). A experiência da casa de farinha foi sistematizada e avaliada, seguindo-se etapas que incluem uma contextualização, o relato da experiência, levantamento de reflexões e conclusões guiadas pelos pilares de uma TS. Caapiranga vem enfrentando dificuldades relacionadas a produção do cará, como o custo de plantio e colheita e o baixo preço de venda, sendo que é um alimento perecível com fácil brotamento após a colheita. A experiência de transformar o cará in natura em farinha foi guiada pelas tecnologias e conhecimentos já existentes da produção de farinha de macaxeira na cidade e com adaptações necessárias para produção das farinhas de cará branco e roxo; questões como as de interdisciplinaridade, relação políticas, cultura alimentar e de segurança do alimento estão sendo consideradas para a viabilidade dessa nova tecnologia. A partir das potencialidades e limites apontados, nota-se que a experiência em questão foi importante para mostrar a possibilidade da produção de farinha de cará, existindo algumas etapas que poderiam ter maior participação popular para se alcançar melhores resultados.

RE-SHAPING THE PROPHET: Baḥr al-Mādhī, Vernacular Fracture and Characteristics of Hadith Commentary in Nusantara
Authors: Firdausy Hilmy
Published: February 2025

Baḥr al-Mādhī Syarah Bagi Mukhtasar Sahih al-Tirmidhi by Muhammad Idris al-Marbawi is one of the hadith works of Nusantara scholars, which contains wealthy textual data. It provides 22 chapters divided into 11 volume bundles. However well, not much research has touched on Baḥr al-Mādhī. This paper will specifically reveal the “locality” and distinctive aspects of the hadith commentary scheme in Baḥr al-Mādhī. For this purpose, this paper will use and apply the theory of vernacularization. The theory will record the meeting of “the local” and “ the universal”, which is expected to capture aroma of the Nusantara in the Baḥr al-Mādhī Syarah Bagi Sahih al-Tirmidhi written in Malay language with Pegon script. As a result, at least five methodical characteristics are applied by al-Marbawi in hadith commentary, methods that are never applied by other hadith scholars when observing and explaining the same hadith. The vernacularization or momentum of locality displayed in Baḥr al-Mādhī occurs at once at all its semiotic levels. In the context of the hadith commentary method, there are at least specific characteristics that distinguish Baḥr al-Mādhī from the typical hadith commentary books; 1) visualization of interpretation in the form of drawings and illustrations, 2) utilization of storytelling techniques, 3) the emergence of two-way dialogue and translation spaces, 4) clustering of quotations and 5) the use of pointers.
[Baḥr al-Mādhī Syarah Bagi Sahih al-Tirmidhi karya Muhammad Idris al-Marbawi adalah salah satu karya hadis ulama Nusantara yang memuat data tekstual yang sangat kaya. Ia menyediakan 22 juz bahasan yang dibagi ke dalam 11 bundel jilid. Namun sayangnya, tidak banyak penelitian yang menyentuh Baḥr al-Mādhī. Paper ini secara spesifik akan menguak aspek “lokalitas” dan yang khas dalam skema pensyarahan hadis dalam Baḥr al-Mādhī. Untuk kepentingan itu, teori vernakularisasi akan digunakan. Teori tersebut akan merekam pertemuan “yang lokal” dan “yang universal” ini diharapkan mampu memotret aroma kenusantaraan atau “roso jawi” dalam kitab syarah hadis yang ditulis dalam Bahasa Melayu beraksara pegon tersebut. Hasilnya, ada setidaknya lima  karakteristik metodis yang diterapkan oleh al-Marbawi dalam mensyarah hadis; metode-metode yang tidak pernah diterapkan oleh para ulama hadis lainnya ketika mensyarah hadis yang sama. Vernakularisasi atau momentum lokalitas yang ditampilkan dalam Baḥr al-Mādhī terjadi sekaligus pada semua tataran semiotiknya. Dalam konteks metode tafsir hadis, setidaknya ada ciri-ciri khusus yang membedakan Bahr al-Mādhī dengan kitab tafsir hadis pada umumnya; 1) visualisasi interpretasi berupa gambar dan ilustrasi, 2) pemanfaatan teknik bercerita, 3) munculnya dialog dua arah dan ruang penerjemahan, 4) pengelompokan kutipan dan 5) penggunaan pointer.]

Family planning programmes are not optimal for Muslim women; this is inseparable from the view that contraception is controversial in Islamic teachings. This study aims to examine the influence of the ideal number of children, the role of husbands, the desired last child, and the type of contraception in Muslim women of childbearing age from the perspective of Islam and health. This study used data from the 2017 IDHS in Aceh, West Sumatra, Riau, West Java, Central Java, and East Java on 5797 Muslim women from January to December 2022. The results of this study showed a significant association between the ideal number of boys (p<0.001; PR = 1.332), number of daughters (p<0.001; PR = 1.289), husbands who decide (p=0.004), and contraceptive types (p<0.001; PR = 1.205) with family planning use. The family planning use is influenced by factors such as gender preference, joint decision-making, and the type of contraceptive used. Modern contraceptives are more effective and reliable, suggesting a trend toward modern methods for family planning.
