Authors: Safitri Endah , Wibowo Wibowo , Fadhil Bayu Dian
Published: July 2024

The concrete industry is considered environmentally unfriendly and unsustainable due to the significant consumption of natural materials. Currently, the industry predominantly uses Portland cement as its main ingredient, leading to an increase in Portland cement production. However, the use of fly ash can help make the concrete industry more sustainable in the future. Fly ash can be used as a partial replacement for Portland cement in concrete production. This study aims to determine the effect of fly ash variations on the compressive strength of reactive powder concrete. The research method used is experimental. The concrete mix design includes 30% quartz sand and fly ash variations of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%. The compressive strength test specimens are cylindrical with a diameter of 7.5 cm and a height of 15 cm. The resulting test specimens have a compressive strength of more than 41.4 MPa, thus qualifying as high-strength concrete. The compressive strength test results for fly ash variations of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25% are 62.62 MPa, 66.27 MPa, 75.59 MPa, 68.78 MPa, 66.21 MPa, and 63.70 MPa, respectively.

Published: July 2024

La enfermedad relacionada con IgG4 (ER-IgG4) en edad pediátrica posee manifestaciones que difieren a la de los adultos. En la literatura solo existen comunicaciones de casos y algunas revisiones sistemáticas. Además, el compromiso ocular en esta población (EOR-IgG4), si bien es común en niños, sigue estando mal definido por la rareza de la enfermedad y la falta de sospecha de la misma, lo que acarrea un diagnóstico tardío. Se describe el caso clínico de una paciente de 12 años con EOR-IgG4 con retraso diagnóstico de 4 años. Presentó conjuntivitis, escleritis, ptosis, edema y dolor ocular unilateral, sin compromiso extraoftálmico; IgG4 y relación IgG4/IgG sérica aumentadas, afectación de vientre central de músculo recto interno izquierdo y compromiso de párpado en imágenes. La muestra de anatomía patológica mostró un infiltrado linfoplasmocitario, con imnunohistoquímica compatible con ER-IgG4. Destacamos la importancia de que los médicos pediatras tengan en cuenta esta enfermedad y conozcan sus distintas formas de presentación en esta población.

Faixas de hiato urbano
Authors: Meneguetti Karin Schwabe , Beloto Gislaine Elizete
Published: July 2024

Nos estudos tradicionais de morfologia urbana, a faixa de hiato urbano (urban fringe belt) é um tipo de unidade de paisagem amplamente reconhecido, e que tem uma relação estreita com o planejamento ambiental por conta de seu potencial ecológico, e, principalmente, de sua articulação com a estrutura histórico-geográfica da cidade. As faixas de hiatos urbanos têm sido confirmadas em cidades de todo o mundo, em todas as escalas geográficas, e as aplicações práticas desses estudos estão sendo comprovadas, principalmente em sua relevância no planejamento urbano. Procurando agregar novas contribuições a essa teoria, este trabalho aplicou a metodologia da escola inglesa em cidades brasileiras no estado do Paraná - Toledo, Guarapuava e São Mateus do Sul - todas com origem similar, porém, com processos de expansão distintos. A partir do levantamento urbano, análise histórica dos fenômenos e do processo morfológico, observa-se que os hiatos desses três estudos de caso foram criados durante períodos morfológicos singulares, acarretando cicatrizes no tecido urbano ao longo do processo de expansão. Verifica-se, no entanto, caraterísticas contrastantes entre elas, nas quais a permanência pôde ser consolidada ou por vezes apagada, dada a combinação de diferentes agentes no tempo e espaço. Por fim, o mapeamento e a classificação das faixas de hiatos urbanos em realidades diversas àquelas que produziram a teoria original demonstrou a viabilidade da abordagem no entendimento das estruturas formativas e seu uso potencial no planejamento urbano a partir das transformações visando uma possível estrutura ecológica.

FAMÍLIA SIMAS: por um Brasil Republicano
Authors: Ferreira Jamylle , Raposo de Vasconcellos Carlos Antonio , Pereira Fabio Furtado
Published: July 2024

Novembro, mês em que se comemora o Dia da Bandeira, propomos uma reflexão sobre a importância de uma relevante família republicana no cenário nacional: os Simas. A primeira bandeira republicana do Brasil foi confeccionada no seio dessa família. Flora Simas de Carvalho foi a bordadeira a quem se confiou essa missão. A bandeira teria sido hasteada logo após a Proclamação da República, em 15 de novembro de 1889, oficializada quatro dias depois, com solenidade na Câmara do Rio de Janeiro, quando o Decreto n.º 04, de 19 de novembro a estabeleceu como um dos símbolos nacionais. Entretanto, o Dia da Bandeira só passou a ser oficialmente comemorado a partir de 19 de novembro de 1908, por iniciativa de membros do Congresso Nacional, em resposta a um protesto argentino que rasgou uma bandeira do Brasil. Esse artigo parte de uma pesquisa de Doutorado1 que careceu de uma abordagem genealógica estratégica visando aproximar a metodologia de história oral e os documentos cartoriais. É oportuno uma releitura da genealogia familiar, buscando fechar algumas lacunas. A participação de representantes da família, traz novos elementos à pesquisa, já que ela não acaba quando a tese termina e vem a contribuir com nosso quebra-cabeças genealógico.

Authors: ISMAIL Mwasharifa , SHAVEGA Theresia Julius , KIGOBE Janeth
Published: July 2024

This article is based on the study which sought to examine assessment practices in pre-primary classroom settings. Specifically, the study sought to examine pre-primary school teachers’ knowledge of competence-based assessmentstrategies and abilities to employ competence-based assessment strategies in improving classroom teaching and learning. A descriptive case study design was employed in which 15 quality assurance officers, 15 head of schools and15 pre-primary school teachers from Kinondoni, Ilala and Temeke Municipalities of Dar es Salaam Region were involved. The data were collected through interviews, observations and documentary reviews and the analysis was done using thematic analysis approach. The findings indicated that teachers lacked a clear understanding of competence-based assessment strategies such as natural observations, checklists, oral interviews, peer interviews, cumulative forms, rating scales, projects and portfolios. The findings also revealed that most of the pre-primary school teachers were not able to employ competence-based assessment strategies in improving classroom teaching and learning as they were mostly using traditional ways of assessing children development such as written exercises, tests, and examinations. Based on these findings, it is recommended that Tanzania Institute of Education (TIE) should conduct regular training on competence-based assessment to enable teachers understand what it entails and how it can be effectively implemented. It is also recommended that Tanzania Institute of Education (TIE) should specify pre-primary school assessment strategies and tools which are reflective of the Tanzanian context so that the pre-primary school teachers do not encounter challenges in employing them. Lastly, it is recommended that teacher training institutions, including universities, should adopt competence-based teaching and learning styles during the preparations of teachers who will then work in pre-schools and colleges.

Audience’s Perception of X (Formerly Twitter) Trends as a Tool for the Nigerian Public Sphere
Authors: Olanrewaju Ayishat Sandra
Published: July 2024

Purpose: Unlike how we previously knew it to be, the public sphere has evolved to include digital spaces, making them metamorphose into digital public spheres. These digital spaces are more open, accessible, and void of certain bottlenecks. It is, therefore, now impossible to describe a public sphere without mentioning digital spaces. As such, this study aims to find out the audience's perception of X (formerly Twitter) trends as a tool for the Nigerian public sphere.
Materials and Methods: The survey research method was used to obtain responses from 200 respondents, using the purposive sampling technique of selecting only X (formerly Twitter) users.
Findings: The findings reveal that most X (formerly Twitter) users often utilise X (formerly Twitter) trends to some extent; X (formerly Twitter) trends influence the content of some users but not the majority of them, even if the majority use the feature. In addition, X (formerly Twitter) Trends highlight significant content for X (formerly Twitter) users in Nigeria.
Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: Some of the recommendations of the study include the following: the government should pay closer attention to relevant public conversations on the X (formerly Twitter) platform to understand people’s take on certain issues and how to help them better; they should also partner with relevant agencies to set up regular digital literacy campaigns to help the public effectively engage with social media content on X (formerly Twitter). Also, stakeholders like X (formerly Twitter) should ensure suitable systems are in place for accurate Trends metrics to avoid misleading users with the wrong Trends or content by some users. In addition, X (formerly Twitter) should develop campaigns and guides to help users better understand how to engage with the Trends feature on X (formerly Twitter).

Published: July 2024

This study explored the effect of changes in item sequence on test reliability coefficients (test-retest and Kuder Richardson 20) and student’s achievement in multiple-choice physics tests in Senior Secondary School II in Taraba State. The study adopted repeated measures two-group within-subject experimental research design. The research collected data in order to answer three research questions and test one hypothesis. The sample comprised 450 senior secondary II Physics students (male = 303 and female = 147 ) drawn from population of Physics students in Taraba State. Multi stage sampling technique was employed to randomly select twelve schools from three Local Government Areas of the three Senatorial Districts of Taraba State, and an intact arm of SS II from each of the sampled schools was used. Two parallel 40-items Physics Achievement Test developed by the researcher were used for data collection. The resulting data were collated and analysed using descriptive statistics and t-test. Results showed that reliability coefficients obtained from the two formats were quite comparable. However, the finding revealed that there is significant difference between the students mean achievement score in the format A and Format B of the physics achievement test (t = 4.409 , df = 898, p < 0.05, two-tailed). Sequels to the findings, it is concluded that changes in item sequence has no effect on the reliability coefficients, but students will perform better in physics achievement test if the test items are arranged randomly than in descending order of difficulty.

THE ENERGY FACTOR IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF SAUDI ARABIA’S FOREIGN POLICY AT THE PRESENT STAGE
Authors: Ostanin-Golovnya V. D. , Afanasyev V. I.
Published: July 2024

The article is devoted to the analysis of the energy factor in the formation and development of the modern foreign policy of Saudi Arabia. For decades, the foreign policy, as well as the entire economic system, of the kingdom has been directly dependent on the export of petroleum products and crude oil. Until the beginning of the 2000s western states were the main importers of Saudi energy resources, which directly affected Riyadh’s foreign policy orientation and often had a negative impact on the implementation of national interests and strategic objectives of state development. However, at the present stage, there is a process of formation of a multi-vector foreign policy of Saudi Arabia due to the intensification of trade and economic relations with non-Western states. When analyzing this aspect, the authors paid special attention to the main indicators of diversification of Riyadh’s leading partners, the results of the negotiation process on the kingdom’s accession to BRICS and the development of cooperation within the expanded OPEC format – OPEC+.

This paper describes in detail the RP-HPLC method used to evaluate the content of evinacumab (EVC) in combination with evkeeza injections. The mobile phase used in the assay is a mixture of potassium dihydrogen phosphate and methanol in an isocratic ratio of 70:30 (v/v) on a column Shimpac solar C18, 150*4.6, 5μm column. The flow rate was 1.0 ml/min, isocratic. At 226 nm, the quantification and detection of EVC were done concurrently. It was discovered that the response obtained was linear over the concentration range of 75-225 μg/ml, and the estimated RT in minutes for EVC was 4.063. 1.805 μg/ml was the LOD and 6.017 μg/ml was the LOQ. For the EVC assay, precision was 0.3% RSD and accuracy was 100%.

CARACTERÍSTICA DE LOS PRODUCTOS Y SERVICIOS QUE EXPORTA E IMPORTA CENTROAMÉRICA EN EL CONTEXTO DE LA GLOBALIZACIÓN Y EL COMERCIO INTERNACIONAL
Authors: Pascual Del Rosario Gabriel
Published: July 2024

El presente artículo contiene una revisión y análisis cualitativo conceptual de diversas publicaciones científicas institucionales de CEPAL, Redalyc, SEICA, BID, entre otros autores, que aportan explicaciones epistemológicas en relación con la forma de entender la dinámica del comercio en un mundo globalizado, cuyas actividades económicas hacen que las organizaciones se conviertan en actores esenciales de la vida social.
La dinámica actual de la economía y del comercio global, hacen imprescindible analizar las características de los productos y servicios que exporta e importa el Istmo Centroamericano e impacto de las mega tendencias en la cultura empresarial, haciendo que la sociedad, la política y la economía entren en una dinámica de comprender el presente y más aún, poder predecir el futuro.  En ese sentido, el análisis realizado sobre las características de los productos y servicios que exporta e importa el Istmo Centroamericano y su participación en el comercio desde un enfoque de  Globalización y Comercio Internacional, permiten visualizar el presente-futuro, dada la política de apertura comercial y la inserción  internacional de las empresas en el comercio de bienes y servicios, permitiendo expandir su producción más allá de sus fronteras, generando aumento en el  comercio e inversiones, y  en el  bienestar de los consumidores.
Este escenario que facilita redefinir el rumbo del comercio para Centroamérica, que históricamente ha basado su modelo económico en las exportaciones, y así poder adaptarse a un contexto cada vez más complejo y dinámico, cuyo proceso de cambio debe enmarcarse hacia el logro de un bienestar social y desarrollo económico sostenible en un mundo globalizado.

El cambio climático impone serios desafíos hídricos a Panamá, incluyendo sequías, inundaciones y aumento del nivel del mar. Este estudio explora estrategias para mejorar la resiliencia en la cuenca del río La Villa, tomando como referencia la experiencia holandesa en gestión del agua. A través de un análisis bibliográfico y comparativo, se identifican soluciones innovadoras y sostenibles que armonicen la gestión del agua con el entorno natural. Se destacan estrategias como la recolección de agua de lluvia, la recarga de aguas subterráneas y la conservación del agua en diversos sectores. El estudio resalta la importancia de un enfoque holístico e integrado, con la participación de comunidades, autoridades y stakeholders. Los hallazgos proporcionan información valiosa para la gestión sostenible de los recursos hídricos en Panamá, particularmente en la cuenca del río La Villa, contribuyendo a la elaboración de políticas y estrategias que aseguren la disponibilidad de agua para las generaciones presentes y futuras.
Valoración económica de los años de vida perdidos por muerte prematura por enfermedades crónicas no transmisibles en Panamá. Año 2022
Authors: Herrera Ballesteros Víctor Hugo
Published: July 2024

El objetivo de esta investigación fue estimar la valoración económica de los años perdidos por muerte prematura en enfermedades crónicas no transmisibles. Materiales y métodos: Las fuentes de información son los datos de la Encuesta Nacional de Salud del Ministerio de Salud del año 2019 y las estadísticas de mortalidad del Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Censo. Las variables de estudio son: Edad de muerte, esperanza de vida al nacer, la edad, el sexo y la renta por habitante. Resultados: Las enfermedades Crónicas No Transmisibles (ECNT) han resultado una carga económica importante en Panamá. El riesgo relativo (Odds ratio) de muerte al tener Obesidad Crónica, como factor de riesgo de base, es de 1.2588 veces más por Cáncer, 4.0290 por Hipertensión Arterial, 3.1627 en Enfermedad Renal Crónica y de 2.4259 y 2.8645 veces más, en Diabetes Mellitus Tipo I y Tipo II. Discusión: Las ECNT expresan un reto de gran importancia para el sistema sanitario, que amenazan la sostenibilidad financiera del sector público sanitario y el sistema de seguridad social. Conclusiones: Es importante orientar las políticas de salud al combate de los factores de riesgo tales como la obesidad y fortalecer el sistema de atención del primer nivel, en el que se da la prevención, como la medida más plausible pero que tendrá efectos a largo plazo, dada la transición demográfica y epidemiológica de las ECNT.

Surgió de la necesidad de formación de investigadores en programa doctoral. Se realizaron observaciones y se sistematizaron los principales criterios de evaluación de dificultades presentes en las formaciones precedentes para diseñar cursos basados en ABP que contribuyan a la formación de competencias investigativas mediante procesos de construcción del conocimiento a través del método científico, aplicado a la resolución de problemas en contextos específicos. Contribuye a la divulgación de una propuesta de actualización curricular conectada con el modelo de formación basado en competencias, cuya aplicación resulta recomendable en todas las asignaturas y en todos los niveles educativos.
REVISIÓN SISTEMÁTICA Y MAPAS DEL USO DE LA INTELIGENCIA ARTIFICIAL Y LA NEUROEDUCACIÓN PARA COMPRENDER LA ENSEÑANZA Y EL APRENDIZAJE EN PANEMIA, 2019-2022.
Authors: Ariñez Carlos Alberto
Published: July 2024

La neuroeducación está impulsando un nuevo enfoque en el diseño de programas y entornos de aprendizaje. El presente artículo de revisión se realiza un análisis de resultados sobre su empleo en la generación de mapas para el uso de la inteligencia artificial y la neuroeducación, a fin de  comprender la enseñanza y el aprendizaje en pandemia entre 2019 al 2022. Se empleó para esta revisión la búsqueda en repositorios y bases de datos como: Ebsco (134), Academic Search (23), Scielo(54), Dialnet (12), Academia.edu(26), Redalyc (18) y Google académico (554). Se logró recavar un total 2300 publicaciones. La comaparación y análisi de la información sobre todo como herramientas utilizadas en el diplomado Internacional de Neuroeducación que lidera el Centro Latinoamericano de Estudios en Epistemología Pedagógica en Costa Rica, demostraron que la inteligencia artificial (IA) y la neuroeducación (NE) están creando nuevos mapas para comprender los ecosistemas educativos en que trabaja la inteligencia humana y no humana creando los multiversos o multiespacios que dependen de la tecnología, pero más aún del algoritmo creado por el hombre.
CEREBRO, EL COSMOS Y SUS MEDIACIONES ANALÓGICAS Y ECOSÓFICO - COMPLEJAS.
Authors: Pupo Pupo Rigoberto
Published: July 2024

El presente ensayo puede describirse como la síntesis de un conjunto anterior de trabajos en los que el autor sistematiza aspectos relacionados a la cuestión inherente del cerebro y su complejidad, a la vez que se articula con mediaciones analógicas y complejas que posibilitan dar una explicación al cosmos en sí y per sé. Para ello se apelan a los fundamentos del pensamiento complejo, pero no se rivaliza con la tesis filosófica que consiste en considerar a José Martí como pensador universal el cual abordó en su obra este importante tema. El espiritualismo martiano, la sustantivación de la subjetividad humana, tampoco restan valor a su hermenéutica ecosófica. En su concepción, el hombre, como sujeto socio-cultural, reproduce de forma compendiada la totalidad del Universo. La naturaleza -concepto amplio en Martí- integra todo, lo espiritual y lo material; pero el hombre, es por sobre todas las cosas, un ser activo, hacedor de historia, cultura, y al mismo tiempo, condicionado sociohistóricamente, pues nada es un hombre en sí, y lo que es, lo pone en él su pueblo. Una hermenéutica ecosófica puede hacer mucho en los tiempos actuales, si es capaz de fundarse en la neurociencia con cauce educativo e interpretar el espíritu del mundo con ansias de humanidad, y aprehender la conducta del hombre en su complejidad real, como eticidad concreta, sin imposiciones epistemológicas ni abstractos apriorismos. Interpretar la realidad subjetivamente, y seguir la lógica especial del objeto especial, y no dar la espalda al drama humano.
