Success rate of repeat flexible ureteroscopy following previous failed access: An analysis of stent duration
Authors: Hoare Dylan T. , Wollin Timothy A. , De Shubha , Hobart Michael G. 
Published: January 2021

Introduction: Approximately 8% of patients that undergo therapeutic or diagnostic ureteroscopy will have the procedure aborted and ureter stented due to failed access. The primary objective of this study was to assess mean stent duration prior to repeat ureteroscopy and to calculate the associated successful access rate.
Methods: This retrospective, descriptive study evaluated all patients undergoing interval ureteroscopy following a failed procedure by endourologic surgeons at the University of Alberta from 2016–2018. Patients declining interval ureteroscopy, or those with malignant/known ureteral strictures were excluded from the study. The primary outcome measures were median time to salvage ureteroscopy and the rate of successful access of the repeat procedure.
Results: A total of 119 patients were identified as having a failed ureteroscopy during our study period. First-time and recurrent stone formers accounted for 64 (53.8%) and 47 (39.5%) patients, respectively. Median stent duration to second procedure was 17 days (average 20, range 10–84). Most patients had their repeat ureteroscopy at 14 days or greater (81.5%); 22 (18.5%) patients had their repeat ureteroscopy between 10 and 13 days. The success rate of a second ureteroscopy after stenting was 99.2% (118/119).
Conclusions: Ureteric stenting following failed ureteroscopy leads to exceedingly high rates of successful access at interval procedure (99.2%). The standard duration of ureteric stenting employed at our institution is two weeks. Of the patients that underwent an accelerated second procedure (between 10–13 days of stenting), all had successful access at their interval procedure.

Sobre el respeto a la evidencia empírica. McIntyre en La actitud científica.
Authors: Sanjuan Mariano 
Published: January 2021

No hace mucho tiempo, la demarcación, el cambio teórico o la racionalidad científica coloreaban la paleta de la filosofía de la ciencia. Hoy estos problemas son vistos como asuntos clásicos de la disciplina. En La actitud científica, Lee McIntyre renueva el escaparate filosófico recuperando el problema de la demarcación, defendiendo que lo distintivo de la ciencia es “que se preocupa por la evidencia y está dispuesta a modificar sus teorías en función de la evidencia”. Se presentan a continuación una síntesis de la obra y cinco objeciones.

Not long ago, demarcation, theory change and scientific rationality used to clutter up debates on the philosophy of science. These issues are now seen as the classical subjects of the discipline. In The Scientific Attitude, Lee McIntyre revamps the philosophical showcase by taking over the demarcation problem by asserting that “what is distinctive about science is that it cares about evidence and is willing to change its theories on the basis of evidence”. I hereby synthetize his proposal and offer five objections.

Se analiza el efecto del incremento de actividad física (AF) para conseguir el cumplimiento de recomendaciones de AF para la mejora de la salud según la Organización Mundial de la Salud en un grupo de 42 adolescentes (28 chicas) con sobrepeso/obesidad (IMC=29.37±4.5 Kg/m²). El tratamiento de 12 semanas de duración consistió en la prescripción y seguimiento de AF en dos fases: intensiva (seguimiento semanal) y extensiva (seguimiento quincenal). El nivel de AF se valoró mediante el cuestionario Physician-based Assessment and Counseling y la condición física mediante pruebas de fuerza isométrica del tren superior, fuerza explosiva de piernas y capacidad cardiorrespiratoria de la batería ALPHA. Tras el tratamiento se observa una mejora significativa (p<0,05) en capacidad cardiorrespiratoria. En conclusión, se muestra que incrementando la práctica de AF y cumpliendo las recomendaciones semanales de 300 minutos de AF moderada-vigorosa los adolescentes mejoraron su capacidad cardiorrespiratoria.
This study evaluated the effect of increased physical activity (PA) to achieve PA recommendations according to the World Health Organization for improving health in a group of 42 adolescents (28 girls) with overweight / obesity (BMI = 29.37 ± 4.5 Kg / m²). The 12 weeks treatment consisted in the prescription and follow-up of the PA guidelines divided in two phases: intensive (weekly follow-up) and extensive (fortnightly follow-up). PA level was assessed using the Physician-based Assessment and Counseling questionnaire and the Physical Fitness using upper body isometric strength test, lower body explosive strength test and cardiorespiratory fitness test, all from the ALPHA battery fitness tests. After treatment, a significant improvement was observed (p <0.05) in cardiorespiratory fitness. In conclusion, this study shows that increasing PA practice and meeting the weekly recommendations of 300 minutes of moderate-vigorous PA, the adolescents’ group improved their cardiorespiratory fitness.
La estructura de sesión como elemento potenciador del aprendizaje y el entrenamiento en los deportes de colectivos desde la perspectiva de la pedagogía no lineal

Published: January 2021

En los últimos años han emergido con fuerza nuevas tendencias metodológicas, estableciéndose como uno de los elementos importantes la manipulación de constreñimientos, en los cuales se posibiliten ciertos comportamientos con el fin de facilitar el aprendizaje significativo. Sin embargo, estos niveles de constreñimientos no son los únicos que se pueden condicionar para favorecer el aprendizaje, ya que el contexto de aprendizaje está compuesto por más piezas. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo proponer la estructura de la sesión como un nivel de constreñimiento que posibilite el aprendizaje. Se ha realizado una intervención con jugadores de fútbol (n=24) de la categoría sub13 de un club profesional, durante 3 sesiones con diferentes tareas condicionadas. Los resultados indican que, en líneas generales, la ordenación adecuada de las tareas durante la sesión ayuda a favorecer la transferencia de los conocimientos adquiridos, concluyéndose que la estructura de la sesión podría considerarse como un nivel de constreñimiento.
In recent years, new methodological trends have emerged with force, establishing as one of the important elements the manipulation of constraints, in which certain behaviors are made possible in order to facilitate meaningful learning. However, these levels of constraints are not the only ones that can be conditioned to favor learning, since the learning context is made up of more pieces. This work aims to propose the structure of the session as a level of constraint that enables learning. An intervention was carried out with soccer players (n=24) of the U13 category of a professional club, during 3 sessions with different conditioned tasks. The results indicate that, in general terms, the adequate ordering of tasks during the session helps to favor the transfer of the knowledge acquired, concluding that the structure of the session could be considered as a level of constraint.

Published: January 2021

El objetivo de este estudio fue identificar el panorama científico con respecto a los estudios con entrenadores de balonmano. Para esto, se realizó una revisión sistemática con búsquedas en diferentes bases de datos desde el año 2000. El análisis de los artículos seleccionados permitió identificar tres temas: a) intervención de los entrenadores para el desempeño; b) intervención de entrenadores centrados en aspectos psicológicos; y c) perfil y formación de entrenadores. Los artículos analizados destacaron la formación de los entrenadores, teniendo como temas principales abordados por los investigadores las intervenciones de los entrenadores relacionadas con los contenidos técnico-tácticos, los comentarios, la preparación física, las formas de liderazgo y la relación con los jugadores. Se concluyó que los estudios con entrenadores deben ser estimulados para ayudarlos en el proceso de aprendizaje profesional, pero también se debe dar más énfasis a las categorías iniciales de entrenamiento deportivo, ya que se encontró preferencia por artículos que retratan la categoría de adultos.
The aim of this study was to identify the scientific scenario situation of the handball coaches. For this, a systematic review was performed with searches in different databases since 2000 in three specific themes: a) coaches intervention in performance; b) coaches intervention in psychology issues; and c) coaches profiles and formation. The analyzed papers highlighted the coaches professional learning, and the mainly investigated subjects were related to the coaches’ interventions related to the technical-tactical contents, the feedbacks, the physical fitness, the leaderships ways and the relationship with players. It can be concluded that studies with coaches should be stimulated to assist them in the professional formation process, but greater attention should also be given to the youth sports, once that was found a preference for works involving adult teams.

Published: January 2021

El objetivo de esta investigación es analizar el efecto de un programa de fuerza mediante tecnología isoinercial durante cuatro semanas, en la mejora del rendimiento en mujeres de deportes colectivos con carácter intermitente. La muestra estaba compuesta por seis mujeres con una edad media de 21±1.79 años. Se realizaron los test de cambios de dirección V-cut, fuerza explosiva counter movement jump y repeated sprint ability sobre 40 m. Los principales resultados muestran que se mejoraron todas las variables analizadas mediante el entrenamiento con tecnología isoinercial. Además, presentaron diferencias significativas (p<.05) en las variables de fuerza explosiva y de repeated sprint ability. Por lo tanto, un programa de entrenamiento de fuerza a través de tecnología isoinercial durante cuatro semanas de entrenamiento es suficiente para la mejora de los cambios de dirección, la resistencia a la repetición de esprines y la fuerza explosiva de piernas.
The aim of this research is to analyse the effect of a four-week strength programme using isoinertial technology on performance improvement in women in team sports on an intermittent basis. The sample was composed of six women with an average age of 21 (±1.79 years). The tests of V-cut direction changes, explosive force counter movement jump and repeated sprint ability over 40 m were performed. The main results show that all the variables analysed are improved by training with isoinertial technology. They present significant differences (p<.05) in the variables of explosive strength and repeated sprint ability. Therefore, a strength training program using isoinertial technology during four weeks of training is sufficient for the improvement of direction changes, resistance to repeated sprinting and explosive leg strength.
Prenatal diagnosis of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection: 2D and 3D echocardiographic findings
Authors: Bravo‐Valenzuela Nathalie J. M. , Peixoto Alberto Borges , Araujo Júnior Edward 
Published: January 2021

AbstractTotal anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is a rare cyanotic congenital heart disease that accounts for less than 1% of all congenital heart diseases. TAPVC is characterized by the absence of pulmonary venous drainage into the left atrium. It is underdiagnosed in utero, with prenatal detection rates of less than 1.4%. The prenatal diagnosis of TAPVC affects the postnatal outcome, particularly in obstructive forms (critical TAPVC), since planned delivery and perinatal management are mandatory. Thus, identifying the ultrasound key markers of TAPVC is important for the prenatal diagnosis and perinatal assistance. The ventricular size discrepancy (right ventricle > left ventricle) can be a useful marker. Furthermore, the increased retroatrial distance between the left atrium and the aorta could be a diagnostic marker for prenatal TAPVC, especially when the left atrium is small. Three‐ (3D) and four‐dimensional ultrasonography may improve the prenatal diagnosis of TAPVC. This study reviews the two (2D) and 3D ultrasonographic markers used in the antenatal diagnosis of TAPVC, with a focus on the tools that can be used by sonographers, obstetricians, and fetal medicine specialists to improve the prenatal diagnosis of TAPVC, and when to refer the case to a fetal cardiac specialist.
“Theme Doesn’t Just Jump Out”: Teaching for Theme Comprehension
Authors: Morgan Denise N. , Evans Kristen I. , DeFrancesco Justine 
Published: January 2021

AbstractTeaching for theme is one aspect of reading comprehension that is often elusive for both teachers and students. Specifically, teachers are challenged with elevating students’ thinking from the plot level to a more abstract level when teaching for theme understanding. Students are challenged with transitioning between the story world and the real world to construct viable theme statements. The authors share some initial classroom lessons that can be taught as a starting point to guide students in their interpretation and construction of themes.
Sorghum Farmers’ Climate Change Adaptation Strategies in the Semiarid Region of Cameroon

Published: January 2021

AbstractThis chapter deals with the problem of sorghum farmers’ adaptation to climate change in the semiarid region of Cameroon. Its general objective is to compare the various adaptation strategies’ typologies and to characterize the sorghum farmers’ adaptation strategies on the basis of the suitable one. The stratified random sampling method was used to select the sites, which consist of twenty (20) villages, and the sample, which consists of six hundred (600) farm household heads. After conducting focus-groups in ten villages and interviews with resource persons, the primary data were collected using a semi-open survey questionnaire. It appears that the poor spatiotemporal distribution of rains and the drought constitute, respectively, the main climate hazard and the main water risk that farmers are dealing with; the farmers are vulnerable to climate change because the adaptation strategies used are mostly traditional, their adoption rates are very low, and the use of efficient adaptation strategies (irrigation, improved crop varieties) is almost unknown. The characterization of the adaptation strategies used shows that they are more complex than most authors who have established the typologies thought. It comes out that improving the resilience of these sorghum farmers absolutely requires the improvement of their basic socioeconomic conditions.
Doing Gender Online: Digital Spaces for Identity Politics
Authors: Andreevskikh Olga , Muravyeva Marianna 
Published: January 2021

AbstractIn contemporary Russia, online discourses on gender reflect the complex legacies of the Soviet and post-Soviet attitudes and approaches to masculinity and femininity. The current discourses on gender affect its digital construction. Mirroring the gendered discourses on masculine and feminine roles and patterns of behavior, digital media spaces impose similar restrictions and expectations on female users as those experienced by women in their offline activities. This chapter offers an analysis of how the World Wide Web and digital technologies influence gender identity politics in contemporary Russian society. We look at the ways Russians construct gender online, how their practices become means of resistance and activism, and how they adapt and shape digital technologies to perform their gender identities and communicate with the State in the situation of increasing surveillance and control of material and cyberspaces.
Digitizing Archives in Russia: Epistemic Sovereignty and Its Challenges in the Digital Age
Authors: Golubev Alexey 
Published: January 2021

AbstractThe chapter discusses the production of digital archives in Russia as part of a complex political economy of historical knowledge. Several high-profile digital archives have been produced within the framework of grant funding provided by international agencies and commercial content providers and have reflected the priorities of the funding organizations by focusing on state violence in Russia and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), international Communist movement, as well as other politicized or easily monetized content. At the same time, national and regional archives in Russia also engaged in the digitization of their collections by soliciting federal and local funding. These latter projects emphasized complexity and objectivity as the two key categories of the digitization of archives while pursuing an underlying political agenda to restore epistemic sovereignty over Russian history.
Tweeting Russian Politics: Studying Online Political Dynamics
Authors: Zherebtsov Mikhail , Goussev Sergei 
Published: January 2021

AbstractThe established study of political networks has surged with the rise of digital social networks and modern computational analytics. Social Network Analysis (SNA) enables the study of Russia’s hybrid politics and society as it produces accurate alternative content to controlled official and semi-official statistics, providing live and detailed insight into current political processes in the country. Using six resonant political events, the chapter illustrates how SNA methods allow the designation of political communities and support the evaluation of such important questions as the presence of “echo-chambers,” the dynamic tracing of group reactions to informational events, and the detection of leaders and influencers. These methods provide a framework for the analysis of political phenomena as astroturfing and botnets, opinion mining, as well as topic and sentiment analysis.
Digital Activism in Russia: The Evolution and Forms of Online Participation in an Authoritarian State
Authors: Lonkila Markku , Shpakovskaya Larisa , Torchinsky Philip 
Published: January 2021

AbstractThis chapter describes how digitalization has affected activism in Russia by tracing the evolution, particularity, and the most visible forms of online activism in the context of the increasingly authoritarian Russian state. It discusses online activism in relation to “connective action” and illustrates it with two examples of contentious political activism: the anti-corruption campaign led by Alexei Navalny and the struggle to protect online communication from state surveillance by the Telegram messenger service. In addition, the chapter presents examples of Russian activism, which do not directly challenge the Kremlin.
Allocation of Regulatory Responsibilities: Who Will Balance Individual Rights, the Public Interest and Biobank Research Under the GDPR?
Authors: Reichel Jane 
Published: January 2021

AbstractIn this chapter, an analysis is undertaken of the division of legislative power in the space created by the GDPR, regarding the balancing of individual rights, the public interest and biobank research. The legislative competences of the EU, international obligations within bioethics, and the regulatory space left for Member States are all examined. The conclusion of the chapter is that in spite of the aim of the GDPR to further legal harmonisation, it is more likely that unity will be brought about through administrative cooperation and soft law tools.
#ko.vernetzt: Digital Transformation of an Educational Organization from a Media Educational Viewpoint
Authors: Bröckling Guido , Behr Julia , Erdmann Julian 
Published: January 2021

AbstractLike other areas, the education sector is facing challenges posed by digitization. The project #ko.vernetzt supports the educational organization Kolping-Bildungswerk Paderborn in the process of digital transformation. In this article it is presented and reflected from a practice-oriented media educational perspective. The outlined qualification measures are intended to ensure sustainable development in the context of digitization for both employees and the organization itself. The processes that are presented here are viewed from the perspectives of the organization and from the viewpoint of its employees. Media education and the transfer of work-related digital competences are equally of great importance in this respect. Insights from this project can be viewed in the greater discourse and eventually applied to other contexts. The work with Kolping-Bildungswerk Paderborn and all partners involved clearly shows that a successful digitization strategy must include the participation of all stakeholders and should always be viewed from the human perspective first.
Sustainability in a Digital Age as a Trigger for Organizational Development in Education
Authors: Grünberger Nina , Szucsich Petra 
Published: January 2021

AbstractAs we all know the terms sustainability and digitization are often used these days to describe current social challenges from a global perspective. In order to face these challenges, it is clear that we need an efficient and future-oriented education system. The question arises if the challenges in relation to climate change and digitization change these (learning) organizations as well? And, if yes, in what way? As this chapter points out, sustainability can be regarded as a trigger for an extensive organizational development focusing on ecological, economic (e.g. regarding learning outcomes and assessment) and social aspects. As a consequence, the social structure of the various actors in educational organizations as well as the way in which they interact with each other may/will change as well. In addition to that, climate change and digitization are both so-calledwicked problemsas there is neither a single solution nor a stringent strategy on how to cope with them.
