Published: July 2022

O presente artigo objetivou analisar como a rede pública municipal de Canavieiras – BA assegurou o direito à educação no contexto da pandemia de COVID-19. Sua problemática questiona qual o domínio desses professores para o ensino por intermediação tecnológica? Qual a qualidade de acesso dos professores e alunos para a realização do ensino online? Por meio de uma pesquisa qualitativa, a partir dos resultados do questionário aplicado aos professores do Município de Canavieiras-BA, onde foi questionado o uso de mediação tecnológica durante a pandemia, assim, buscou descrever como os professores e alunos do Sistema Municipal de Educação – SME desenvolveram as atividades educativas no período de distanciamento e isolamento social. Neste sentido, pode-se constatar que os dados da pesquisa apontam que partes dos professores optaram por utilizar apenas a atividade impressa, no período remoto, pois foi a forma encontrada de assegurar o ensino aos estudantes, e, deste modo, esse tipo de artifício tornou o ensino dos alunos responsabilidade das famílias, o que comprometeu o Direito à Educação para os alunos oriundos de famílias sem o conhecimento básico para ajudar os estudantes durante este processo.

El Semillero Ethos pertenece al grupo de investigación Cibercultura y Territorio de la Escuela de Ciencias Sociales Artes y Humanidades (ECSAH) de la Universidad Nacional Abierta y a Distancia. Este semillero tiene como bandera incentivar la reflexión filosófica para la construcción de un pensamiento crítico que conduzca a conocimientos epistémicos en torno a la realidad, la actualidad, la política y la ética. Bajo este derrotero, el trabajo que aquí se presenta es producto de lecturas, disertaciones, discusiones y socialización de textos que cada uno de los integrantes realizó, teniendo en cuenta que la escritura es un ejercicio fundamental para el desarrollo intelectual de la persona que se ejercita mediante la comprensión, interpretación, reflexión y proposición, que le permite al individuo consolidar conocimientos epistémicos. De esta forma, se discuten temas como la estética y su configuración local para una experiencia sublime dentro de la filosofía del arte; el tratamiento de la verdad en la posverdad, la cual no solo debe verse desde su construcción como término, sino directamente desde la experiencia, como sucede con las víctimas del conflicto armado colombiano; la voluntad, el vitalismo y la negación del cuerpo como entidad enajenada del bien, visto desde la perspectiva de Nietzsche; la necesidad en tanto a género humano de consolidar el humanismo para su construcción ontológica, axiológica y epistémica. Lo anterior, en el marco de su evolución histórica que se consolida en la actualidad, pero que no conforme con ello, debe verse desde la dimensión local, puesto que es imperativo que se observe desde las subjetividades que nacen en cada territorio, desde el individuo mismo, de forma que pueda ampliarse la comprensión que brinde los elementos de un trabajo propositivo.
Anaximandro: Con-textos e interpretaciones
Authors: Monroy Gutiérrez Einar Iván
Published: July 2022

El objetivo de este estudio ha sido presentar los testimonios y fragmentos atribuidos a Anaximandro, procurando una lectura de los mismos a partir de su contexto. Para esto, por un lado, se recabaron las principales y más recientes fuentes y, por el otro, se indagó la influencia que el milesio pudo haber ejercido en autores posteriores. Como resultados tenemos, de una parte, aunque no en la misma intensidad y extensión que otros filósofos clásicos como Platón y Aristóteles, que Anaximandro fue de gran consideración para Bruno, Hegel, Nietzsche, Heidegger y Gadamer; de la otra, procuramos una interpretación que toma distancia de la usual, sosteniendo que en Anaximandro no hay un sistema metafísico en sentido estricto ni como “henología” —lo uno como origen de todo lo existente, del que se deriva el ser (Platón, 1992, 16 c, 509 b)— ni como ontología —ciencia del ser en cuanto ser, donde lo uno es un predicado del ser (Aristóteles, 1994, I,2,1053b 25-29)—. Se concluye que aquello de lo que ápeiron fuera atributo no podría ser otra cosa que de la physis misma, naturaleza indeterminada, unidad especular en la que coinciden los contrarios que inteligentemente gobierna.

Background: Since circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are precursors of
metastatic lesions, extracting CTCs from whole blood is useful in
obtaining information for cancer treatment. One of the CTC extraction
methods is the size selection method; however, since the conventional
methods are expensive and cumbersome, we developed an affordable and
simple filter, whose usefulness is verified in this study. Methods: The
new filter (hereafter, soft micropore filter [SMPF]) is made up of a
polyethylene film with a thickness of 15 μm and conical pores having a
diameter of 8–10 μm, which are opened uniformly (opening rate, 20%).
This filter can filter whole blood by free-falling under gravity. The
possibilities of the filter’s usage for model CTC extraction,
immunostaining, short-term cell culture, and gene mutation detection in
extracted model CTCs were verified. Results: S-MPF was able to extract
model CTCs with an extraction rate of up to 15%. These model CTCs were
detected by cytology, immunostaining, and culture by short-term
incubation of filtered cells. Furthermore, genetic mutations were
identified in the cultured cells. In addition, CTC extraction from the
peripheral blood of patients with lung cancer was demonstrated by
setting the volume of collected blood to 15 mL to prevent a low recovery
rate. Conclusions: The S-MPF can be used to extract model CTCs quickly
and easily. Moreover, cytological diagnosis, immunostaining, short-term
culture, and gene mutation search are possible with this filter. Given
its proven applicability in clinical samples, this sample can be used in
clinical settings.

Published: July 2022

The chordae tendinae connect the papillary muscles to the mitral valve.
While the first-order chordae serve to secure the leaflets to maintain
valve closure and prevent mitral valve prolapse, the second-order
chordae are believed that they play a role in maintaining normal LV size
and geometry. The papillary muscles, from where the chordae tendinae
originate, function as shock absorbers that compensate for the geometric
changes of the left ventricular wall. The second-order chordae connect
the PMs to both trigons under tension. The tension distributed towards
the second-order chordae has been demonstrate to be more than three-fold
that in the first-order counterpart. Cutting the second-order chordae
puts all the tension on the first-order chordae, that can go closer to
their rupture point. However, it has been experimentally demonstrated
that the tension where the first-order chordae break is 6.8 N, by far
higher than the maximal tension reached, that is 0.4 N. Even if the
clinical reports have been favorable, the importance of cutting the
second-order chordae to recover curvature of the anterior leaflet and
increasing the coaptation length between the mitral leaflet has been
slowly absorbed by the surgical world. Nevertheless, there are
progressive demonstrations that chordal tethering affects the anterior
leaflet not only in secondary, but also in primary mitral regurgitation,
having a not negligeable role in the long-term outcome of mitral repair.
Recent advances in understanding NARDS, and the effect of the budesonide on the prevention of NARDS

Published: July 2022

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is an acute respiratory
failure syndrome caused by non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema of various
etiologies.[1](#ref-0001) When the fetus encounters asphyxia,
acidosis, infection, meconium inhalation, et al. during childbirth, the
inflammatory pathway will be activated. The systemic inflammatory
response can remove pathogens, but the excessive inflammatory response
will prompt pulmonary surfactant (PS) inactivation and increase the
permeabilities of alveolar epithelial and endothelial cells, resulting
in the accumulation of edema fluid in the alveoli and eventually leading
to severe hypoxemia, respiratory distress and decreased lung
compliance.[1,2](#ref-0001) Population-based studies in the United
States, Australia, Europe, and New Zealand reported that the incidence
of ARDS in children is 2.0-12.8 per 100000
person-years,[3](#ref-0003) and according to the interim report of
the International Neonatal ARDS Multicenter Study, the mortality of
neonatal ARDS (NARDS) is approximately 20%.[4](#ref-0004) Due to
the high mortality of NARDS, the researchers try to explore potential
new treatments to limit the incidence and mortality of NARDS. Systemic
inflammatory response plays a significant role in the occurrence and
development of NARDS, budesonide, a non-halogenated corticosteroid, has
a potent local pulmonary anti-inflammatory effect, therefore, it may be
an effective treatment option for NARDS. This article reviews the
evolution of ARDS definition and diagnosis, pathophysiological
mechanisms of NARDS, and gives an outlook on the application of
budesonide in NARDS.

Published: July 2022

Background: Very late antigen 4 (VLA4) integrin facilitates the immune cells migration to central nervous system (CNS) through blood brain barrier (BBB), so the polymorphism in this gene may be considered as genetic risk factor for multiple sclerosis (MS) occurrence. It may interact with the responsiveness level of Natalizumab. Objective: To show if VLA4 single nucleotide gene polymorphism (SNP) (C-269-A) considered as genetic predisposition factor for MS and if have a role in Natalizumab (Tysabri) drug non-responsiveness. Methods: Sixty-six (66) person with MS and 60 healthy persons involved in this study, their ages were range from 14 to 67 years. They attended to seek treatment in the MS outpatient’s clinic, at Baghdad Teaching Hospital, Medical City Complex from December 2018 to March 2020. Patient were divided into two group; resistant group (34) and response group (32). The VLA-4 SNP polymorphism investigated by sequence specific primer polymerase chain reaction (SSP-PCR) technique. Results: The VLA4 gene SSP-PCR genotyping revealed no significant differences between patients and control group also between responder patients and non-responder to Natalizumab. Conclusion: VLA-4 polymorphisms at the level of SNP at positions 269 (C/A) have no role in MS susceptibility or Natalizumab responsiveness.

Published: July 2022

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease affecting the central nervous system (CNS), with inflammation and demyelination of nerves, eventually resulting in nerve damage and disabilities. The risk of developing MS enlarged by infectious mononucleosis, which is caused by delayed primary infection by Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV). Early reports consistently demonstrated an increased antibody response in MS patients versus healthy subjects towards different EBV antigens, including the EBV nuclear antigen-1 (EBNA-1). In Iraq, number of researchers found that the EBV have a possible role at some point in the course of the disease, others reported that the EBV pathogenesis have an important role in the triggering of MS disease. Objective: To compare the sero-prevalence of EBV nuclear antigen-1 antibody (EBNA-1 IgG) among the Iraqi MS patients and controls and find out whether there is a relation between disease severity and EBNA-1 IgG titer. Methods: This case-control study conducted on 120 MS patients aged between 13-42 years, and 120 apparently healthy age- and sex-matched volunteers as controls. Three ml of whole blood were collected from all MS patients and controls and put in gel tubes. The blood samples were centrifuged at 5000 RPM for 5 minutes to get serum from the gel tubes. Serum was preserved in (-20ºC), and then used for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The ELISA study was performed using ELISAs kits (Abnova /Taiwan) for EBNA-1 IgG antibodies measurement. Results: EBNA-1 IgG was positive in 51.7% (62/120) of MS patients and 39.2% (47/120) of controls, (P=0.035). The median of EBNA-1 IgG level of MS patients and controls were 81.08 U/ml, and 67.73 U/ml, respectively (P=0.043). And EBNA-1IgG was significantly higher in younger age groups. Patients with the first-line and second-line treatment showed no significant differences in EBNA-1 IgG levels, while the median level in patients without treatment (newly diagnosed) and those who were at early years of the disease was higher. Conclusion: EBNA-1 antibody could play a triggering role in MS because it is significantly higher in MS patients than in controls, especially at younger age groups, early stages of the disease and in female patients.

Background: Patients on long-term hemodialysis are at a higher risk of contracting blood transmitted infections because of their weakened immune systems and frequent interaction with blood, blood products, equipment, and contaminated surfaces. This making them an important population to study the clinical and epidemiological consequences of newly discovered infections like torque teno virus (TTV). Objective: To investigate the frequency of TTV in patients undergoing hemodialysis by molecular method and to find out any association with risk factors and liver function tests. Methods: This cross-sectional study conducted on (100) patients whom attending Hemodialysis Unit at Al-Imamein Al-Kadhimein Medical City in Baghdad, Iraq. The sample of the study consist of (58) males and (42) females, their mean age is (49.97±4.97 SD) years, (50) with viral hepatitis, while (50) without viral hepatitis, for a period from November 2020 to March 2021. Nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to detect TTV-DNA. TTV genogroup was determined by Sanger sequencing and phylogenetic tree construction. Results: TTV DNA was detected in 81% (81 out of 100) of hemodialysis patients, respectively. However, no significant association was found between demographic data, clinical characteristics and risk factors with TTV infection. Conclusion: This study showed high prevalence of TTV in hemodialysis patients but didn't play a role in liver injury among these patients. Also, based on phylogenetic analysis of the untranslated region (UTR), genogroup-3 was found to be the most prevalent in hemodialysis patients.

Background: Benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) can be treated with endoscopic urological procedures, which includes both laser ablation of prostate and transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). Objective: To determine the advantages and disadvantages of using diode laser procedure in treating patients with BPH in contrast to TURP treatment. Methods: In a prospective non-randomized study at a single center, 40 patients presenting with symptoms of lower urinary tract symptoms attributable to BPH between the ages of 50 to 90 years were enrolled from November 2014 to June 2015. TURP was used in Group A, and transurethral laser ablation of prostate (TULAP) was used in Group B. Outcomes, including International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) and higher maximum flow rate (Qmax) were compared at 3 months. Results: At 3 months, patients treated with TULAP had a significantly Qmax than those treated with TURP (p<0.001). There was a significantly lower hospital stay for BPH patients treated with the TULAP technique (p<0.001). Patients treated with the TULAP procedure had a significantly shorter catheter time (p=0.001). There was a non-significant difference in procedure time between the two methods (p=0.2). There was a significant increase in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) among those treated with the TURP technique (p=0.01). Conclusion: Lower urinary tract problems induced by BPH can be successfully treated by diode laser ablation of prostate. Our findings suggest that diode laser is reliable and efficient when patients are carefully chosen for surgery. Keywords: BPH, Ablation of Prostate, TULAP, TURP Citation: Sami AKM, Bajalan DH.

MASONRY OBJECTS OF CULTURAL HERITAGE MADE FROM THE NATURAL STONE OF THE LEFT BANK OF TRANSNISTRIA: CONDITION AND PROBLEMS OF RESTORATION
Authors: Riazanova Nataliia , Rybchynskyi Oleh
Published: July 2022

The article considers historical industrial, sacred and residential buildings and structures made of natural stone, located on the left bank of the Dniester within the Eastern Podillya. The paper fixates the technical condition, characterizes the features of the architectural appearance and design solutions of the masonry of the preserved objects. Among the objects of industrial architecture are considered wineries (Kamyanka, Vladimirovka, Yantarne), breweries (Kamyanka), cheese production (Kamyanka) and sugar (Rybnitsa) factories, mills (flour mill - in Popenki, water - in Bilochy, in Strointsy) and other. Untouched areas of grape terraces in the ruins of Kamianka have a complex of defects: potholes in the masonry (leads to loss of load-bearing functions), contamination of stone by decomposition products of organic and mineral composition, as well as biochemical damage (leads to internal stone destruction). Sacred objects are the oldest surviving architectural objects in the Transnistrian region of the Republic of Moldova, made of stone from the middle of the 18thcentury to the beginning of the 19th century. Some of them are in ruins (the synagogue of the village of Rashkiv, the Church of the Intercession in the village of Rashkiv, the church of Kamyanka), some have been rebuilt (the church of St. Demetrius of Thessaloniki, the church of St. Michael of Khrustov, the church of Paraskeva of Serbia). Zozulyany), part lost (Church of the Assumption of the Mother of God in Kamianka). Structurally, all temples have a wall structure on strip rubble limestone foundations. The ceilings could be simple - on wooden beams fixed in the field of load-bearing walls, and could be a dome (Paraskeva Serbian church in the village of Valya-Adynke), cross (Church of the Intercession, Rashkiv village, Rashkiv synagogue, Kam church) For the analysis of construction technologies, samples of mortar were taken from 8 historical objects within the modern Kamianka and Rybnytsia districts of Transnistria (the best preserved region of Transnistria, RM), which They were built in several stages (from the middle of the 18th century to the beginning of the 20th century) to preserve the holistic perception of the historical architectural image of the settlements of the Transnistrian region of the Republic of Moldova.

“The White Tsar-Warrior”: Perception of the Russian Empire and its Ruler by the Peoples of Asia and Africa in the Late Nineteenth – Early Twentieth Century
Authors: Alexander Polunov
Published: July 2022

Strengthening of the ties between different parts of the world, intensification of the colonial policy of Western powers increased in the late nineteenth – early twentieth century the interest of the peoples of Asia and Africa to Russia and its ruler. The latter was often perceived in the mythologized way, as a defender of all the weak and oppressed who relied on colossal military power and spiritual unity with his people. The formation of such image was facilitated by the stories of Russian diplomats and travelers, and by the trips of the people from distant countries to the “empire of tsars”. The strengthening of the ties with the peoples of Asia and Africa was also stimulated by the widespread ideas in the Russian society that Russia had a moral debt, an obligation to help the oppressed. The defeat of Russia in the war against Japan and the socio-political upheavals associated with the revolution of 1905–1907 dealt a heavy blow to such ideas and the policy pursued by Russia.

Published: July 2022

In the article the author studies the publications of materials about China (including Tibet and Xinjiang) and Japan in the conservative journal “Russkoe Obozrenie” (“Russian Review”). He substantiates the uniformity of the editorial policy in respect of China under the guidance of various editors of the journal. The position of each author who wrote in “Russkoe Obozrenie” on China and Japan in 1890–1898 and 1901 is analyzed separately. The author comes to the conclusion that essays on Chinese, Tibetan and Japanese culture and modernity occupied then a modest but firm place on the pages of “Russkoe Obozrenie” throughout the entire existence of the journal. He proves the thesis that “Russkoe Obozrenie” journal stood at the origins of the rapprochement between Russia and China at the end of the nineteenth century.

Transformation of the Ideology of Technocracy as the Determinant of the Imperial Project of Globalization
Authors: Dmitry Kovalev
Published: July 2022

Globalization is the project of a new type of world empire, eliminating civilizational-state sovereignty through technicalization and virtualization of social relations, social institutions and culture, and establishing of special forms of hierarchy. In the ideological evolution of technocracy, which integrated bureaucracy and management, one can distinguish several stages, the implementation of which made it possible to replace the “state – science – technology” value triad with the “TNK – science – technology” triad. The manipulative inconsistency of the ideology of technocracy, its diversity, instrumentality and ability to transform is most clearly manifested in the framework of transmodernism as the dialectical synthesis of industrial technocracy and postmodernism, imitating the absence of coherent ideology and system of goals.
Police in the Western Remote Parts of the Empire: the Structure, Functions and Personnel of the Vilna City Police Department at the Beginning of the 20th Century
Authors: Alexander Kiselev
Published: July 2022

At the beginning of the 20th century, the Vilna City Police Department had a police density higher than the average in most cities of the same size in the German or British Empires. However, taking into account the multi-ethnicity of the population, the border position of the city and its accelerated socio-economic development, the police staff was not excessively significant. The existing police staff proved to be incapable of resisting alone the mass political riots in 1905. On the initiative of both the government and local authorities, the quality of police control over crime was improved. Most of the police were recruited from the local residents, with Catholics dominating among the lower ranks of the police, despite the attempts of the authorities to change that. The structure of the city police department was similar to that of the central provinces of the empire.

Published: July 2022

Speaking skills and role-playing learning methods are variables used to determine their impact on student achievement. Students' learning achievement is expected to be known through discussion of novel subject matter where students can interpret their knowledge by speaking and interacting with the novel's contents through role-playing. The population of this study was students of VIII-C SMP Kemala Bhayangkari 1 Medan with a total of 24 research samples. One group pretest-posttest design was used to test the research hypothesis about the effect of the role-playing learning method on student achievement. On the other hand, this study also interprets the results of observations, questionnaires, and interviews as primary data to strengthen the analysis of the hypothesis testing obtained. In the end, this research shows that there are 27.8% of students do not master speaking skills with a total of 73.6% of students whose speaking skills need to be improved and only 26.4% of students who have speaking skills. The results of the study also illustrate that appearing in public places, asking questions when studying in class, and discussing lesson topics while studying in class are the 3 main factors that need to be optimized by students. The hypothesis test shows the value of sig > which means accepting H0 that there is no difference in the students' pretest and posttest scores so that the role-playing learning method has not had a different effect on student achievement.

Adequate consumption of protein is indispensable for human growth and health. Nigeria has a high burden of protein deficiency with attendant loss of economic productivity and high health bills due to ill-health. Owing to paucity of information on demand for protein foods among Nigerian youths, the study assessed the demand for protein foods among students of the University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria. The data collected from 300 students through a multi-stage smapling procedure were analysed using descriptive statistics and Quadratic Almost Ideal System model (QUAIDS). The results have shown that some of the price coefficients expectedly had a negative relationship with the expenditures. The youths also spent more on beans and chicken but spent less on groundnut. Furthermore, expenditure elasticities of all protein foods were positive. Moreover, expenditure elasticities for beans, eggs, beef and goat meat showed that they were necessities goods, whereas chicken, turkey, soy milk, pork, groundnut and milk were luxury goods. Both compensated and uncompensated elasticity showed that own-price elasticities for the selected protein food items were inelastic, with the exception of goat meat. Demand for protein foods was influenced by own-prices of the protein foods, prices of other protein foods and being a male student. In order to meet their daily dietary needs within a limited budget, students should substitute expensive protein sources like chicken, goat meat, beef and turkey with cheaper ones like groundnut, soymilk, beans and eggs in their diets.

Authors: Moro Nicolae
Published: July 2022

A useful tool for organizing workplaces is the 5S method, which is essentially a program divided into five phases to systematically achieve organization, cleanliness and standardization in the workplace to help improve productivity, reduce quality deficiencies and workplace safety issues. Since it is a Japanese method for organizing, cleaning, developing and maintaining a productive workplace, the name is derived from five Japanese words, each beginning with the S sound: Seiri, Seiton, Seiso, Seiketsu, Shitsuke. This technique was also adopted by the organizations from the strong economies, and the translation of the five words from Japanese into English resulted in an identical name for this methodology: Sort, Straighten, Shine, Standardize, Sustain.The purpose of this paper is to highlight the importance of workplace cleanliness at the end of work. This must become an integral part of the daily work of every employee, regardless of hierarchical level, in order to achieve and maintain optimal working conditions.
