Authors: Bonomo Mariano , Castro Juan Carlos , Belén Silva Carolina 
Published: December 2024

Resumen: En este artículo se presentan los estudios taxonómicos, anatómicos y tafonómicos de los materiales faunísticos y los análisis tecnológicos-decorativos y los remontajes de la alfarería del sitio arqueológico Cerro Tapera Vázquez (Nordeste argentino). El sitio está ubicado en un montículo sobre un albardón contiguo al arroyo El Ceibo, donde se excavaron 16 m2 en el año 2008. Allí, se registraron abundantes materiales cerámicos lisos, incisos y modelados (asas y apéndices zoomorfos) y numerosos restos óseos de Myocastor coypus (taxón dominante), Blastocerus dichotomus, Ozotoceros bezoarticus, Cavia aperea, Leopardus geoffroyi, Lycalopex gymnocercus, Hydrochaeris hydrochaeris, aves y peces (Siluriformes y Characiformes). Salvo el cuis y el zorro, los restantes taxa muestran evidencias de procesamiento antrópico (huellas de corte, fracturas frescas y termoalteraciones). Se obtuvieron dos dataciones radiocarbónicas: 650 y 520 años AP. Los resultados alcanzados en este estudio permiten concluir que las poblaciones prehispánicas que ocuparon Cerro Tapera Vázquez a fines del Holoceno tardío eran grupos canoeros ribereños, con una compleja tecnología cerámica y cuya subsistencia se basaba en la caza de coipo, carpincho y cérvidos, en la pesca y la horticultura a pequeña escala.Abstract: In this paper, the results of the studies carried out on ceramic and bone materials recorded at Cerro Tapera Vázquez site (Argentinean Northeast) are presented. Taxonomic, anatomic and taphonomic studies of bone assemblages and technological-decorative analysis and refitting of pottery were undertaken. The site is located on a mound next to El Ceibo Creek, where 16 m2 were excavated in 2008. Abundant smooth, incised and modeled pottery (handles and zoomorphic appendages) and numerous bones remains of Myocastor coypus (most frequent taxon), Blastocerus dichotomus, Ozotoceros bezoarticus, Cavia aperea, Leopardus geoffroyi, Lycalopex gymnocercus, Hydrochaeris hydrochaeris, birds and fish (Siluriformes and Characiformes) were recorded. Except Cavia aperea rodent and Dusicyon gimnocercus fox, all taxa show evidence of anthropic modification (cut marks, fresh fractures and burning). Two radiocarbon dates were obtained: 650 and 520 yrs. BP. The results reached in this study lead to the conclusion that the pre-Hispanic populations that occupied Cerro Tapera Vázquez by the end of the Late Holocene were riverine canoe peoples, with complex ceramic technology and subsistence based on hunting of coypu, capybara and cervids, fishing and small-scale horticulture.

Predicting Muslim Female Customer Retention Through Islamic Marketplace Attractiveness
Authors: Riofita Hendra 
Published: December 2024

This study aims to employ Islamic marketplace attractiveness to predict Muslim female customer retention and price attributes to trigger the predictor effect to encourage Islamic marketplaces to lead Indonesian e-commerce. The data were processed with SPSS and Amos programs and collected through the questionnaire filled in by 407 respondents taken using purposive, snowball, and non-probable sampling methods in a survey conducted for 2 months. The respondents were Muslim female customers who had experience purchasing fashion products in Islamic marketplaces. The Findings show that Islamic marketplace attractiveness is the predictor of Muslim female customer retention. Meanwhile, price attributes partially trigger the Islamic marketplace attractiveness effect on Muslim female customer retention. The findings are insights from Indonesia for developing countries, especially for Muslim developing countries, to encourage Islamic marketplaces to lead e-commerce, especially for their digital economic growth, by predicting Muslim female customer retention. All research constructs can implement the Theory of Reasoned Action in an e-commerce context. Since the theory reveals that behavior is determined by a predictor, Islamic marketplace attractiveness is the predictor of Muslim female customer retention on Islamic marketplaces. Meanwhile, price attributes are the trigger for the predictor effect on Muslim female customer retention.

Antenatal care (ANC) is an indispensable component in the life of every expectant mother. Pregnancy per say is associated with physiological changes some of which may be undesirable like nausea, vomiting of pregnancy and may adversely affect the quality of life of the pregnant mother. The ongoing COVID pandemic continues to pose as a new challenge for safe and effective ANC due to very limited evidence available. COVID can cause severe disease in certain groups of population including mortality warranting extensive research. As of now standard protocol is lacking and social distancing appears to be the best possible preventive mechanism. This study aims to assess the benefits of protocolled Antenatal care during the COVID pandemic. Present study was done at the obstetric department of two hospitals in Mumbai. 1500 expectant mothers satisfying the necessary criteria were enrolled. Most of the women in the study group were primi. They were enrolled for check-ups as per the study protocol. Normal delivery was conducted in 65 percent of cases and LSCS was performed for indicated cases only. Antenatal care in COVID is a new challenge we are facing globally. A systematic protocol is eminent for the ANC in pandemic which is cost effective with easy learning curve. Nevertheless social distancing, personal hygiene including hand sanitizers, appropriate PPE will offer the best preventive measure for the COVID-19.

β-thalassemia poses a major public health problem in India. Reverse hybridization StripAssay® method is reported to be rapid, simple, reproducible and less expensive. The aim of the study was to detect occurrence of β-thalassemia carriers among the ante-natal mothers by Hb HPLC followed by detection of β-thalassemia mutations in antenatal mothers with β-thalassemia carrier state as well as borderline HbA2 value. The second step of this study was detection of β- thalassemia mutations in husbands of antenatal mothers who are β-thalassemia carriers as detected by Hb HPLC. Total 734 antenatal mothers were recruited in the study after obtaining informed consent. All were screened by Hb HPLC and mutation analysis done as per study protocol by reverse hybridization StripAssay®. Among 734 antenatal mothers who were included in the study, 30 subjects (4.08%) were β- thalassemia trait (BTT) and 24 (3.27%) of them had borderline HbA2 value as per Hb HPLC done by Biorad D10™. Commonest mutant allele detected was IVS 1-5(G&#62;C).

Acute appendicitis is considered the most common surgically correctable cause of abdominal pain. Appendicectomy, though a common surgical procedure; yet accurate clinical diagnosis of acute appendicitis remains challenging. Objective of this study is to access the benefit of routine histopathological examination of appendix in clinically diagnosed acute appendicitis, so as to confirm it and to rule out other pathology. Histopathological study was done in (Department of pathology, MKCG MCH) in 541 routine cases with clinical diagnosis of acute appendicitis; admitted to department of General surgery, MKCG MCH between august 2020 to September 2022. Biopsy findings were analyzed and correlated with clinical diagnosis .The study was also used for analyzing demographic data. All patients admitted to department of general surgery, MKCG MCH with clinical diagnosis of acute appendicitis. (2020-22) Patient who underwent incidental appendicectomy during other surgeries. In our study, 271 cases (50.3%) were confirmed to be acute appendicitis, followed by recurrent appendicitis 157(29%), appendicular abscess 46(8.5%), perforation 9 (1.7%) and others accounting for rest 16%. In 14 cases (2.3%) abnormal histopathological findings of clinical significance were noted, that needed specific follow up and management. The study shows that there are certain discrepancies between clinical and histological diagnosis (in 2.3% cases), which will affect treatment protocol and prognosis hence this study supports routine histopathological examination of all appendicectomy specimen.

Chronic renal failure affects almost all the vital organs of the body. Most CRF patients will have sensorineural hearing loss when they first report. Hemodialysis and transplantation are used to treat an increasing CRF patients; many of these individuals also require ototoxic medications. The study's primary goal is to assess cochlear function impairment related to CRF.We studied30 patients of CRF attending our institution for a period of 2 years, from September 2020 to august 2022. All patients were evaluated for hearing loss. We found hearing loss in 17 patients, and 13 patients did not show any hearing loss.17 patients showed hearing loss at various frequencies, and 13 were normal. 5 showed a loss in low, 10 in mid, and 17 in high frequency. The HL group had low levels of serum sodium level (125.8 mmol/dl) compared to the non-HL group (141.4 mmol/dl). We found that the HL group had a higher percentage of taking ototoxic drugs in 9 patients (52.9%). Only two (15.4%) of the non-HL group had a history of ototoxicity. Our study shows that patients with CRF have sensorineural hearing loss. Age, the duration of CRF, the period of hemodialysis, the use of ototoxic medications, blood urea levels, serum creatinine, and serum sodium all showed positive correlations with hearing loss. To stop further deterioration, physicians must be aware of this and take precautions to avoid potential ototoxic substances, loud exposure, hypotension, and other abrupt changes during hemodialysis.

Preeclampsia is one of the common medical complications during pregnancy and is one of the top five causes of maternal death in the world. Preeclampsia is defined as development of hypertension, proteinuria and edema at or after 20 weeks of gestation. The main aim of this study was to estimate and compare levels of adenosine deaminase (ADA) and C- reactive protein (CRP) in serum of preeclampsia and normotensive pregnant women. This case control study included 120 subjects who were pregnant and in the age group of 19-35 years. 60 preeclampsia patients were taken as cases and 60 age matched healthy primigravida as controls. After obtaining ethical clearance and taking informed consent, ADA and CRP levels were analysed. Serum CRP was estimated by immunoturbidimetric method and ADA was estimated by colorimetric method on a spectrophotometer. Results are expressed as mean±SD. Comparison of two study groups was done using unpaired student’s t test. A p value of less than 0.05 was considered significant. There was significant increase in the serum levels of ADA and CRP in cases of preeclampsia in comparison to normotensive pregnant women.Elevated levels of serum ADA suggests the role of probable decreased cell mediated immunity in normal pregnancy and increased cell mediated immunity in preeclampsia. Increased CRP levels reflect the inflammatory response in progression of disease. Estimation of ADA and CRP parameters is inexpensive and can be of some diagnostic and prognostic significance in preeclampsia.

: The incidence of ROP is reported to be around 20-25% in the screened preterm babies. The relationship of anemia with ROP is difficult to study due to many factors affecting blood hemoglobin values, especially blood transfusions. Once an infant has received a blood transfusion, the anemia is temporarily resolved and hemoglobin values increase. A review of literature showed a scarcity of data on the association of anemia in the progression of ROP from the Indian subcontinent. Hence this study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of anemia on the progression and severity of ROP. After getting clearance from the institutional clearance committee this hospital based observational study was done in the Nursery of SVP PG Institute of Pediatrics & SCB Medical College, Cuttack from October 2019 to September 2021. Out of 200 patients 70 patients (35%) were anemic and 130 patients (65%) were non anemic. The mean number of blood transfusion was 0.53±0.85 ranging from 0-4. 130 patients did not receive any blood transfusion. 1-2 blood transfusions while 9 patients received 3-4 blood transfusions. In 129 patients (54.5%) the severity of ROP regressed while 71 patients (35.5%) developed severe ROP. EGA at birth strongly correlated with severity of ROP (p&#60;0.001). the prevalence of anemia, the primary parameter in question, to be significantly higher in the group that developed severe ROP.

Published: December 2024

When beta 2 mediated relaxing effect on ciliary muscle is blocked by Timolol maleate 0.5% eye drop, then there is increase of tonic accommodation, thus presbyopia is corrected. Therefore purpose of this placebo controlled trial is to determine and compare the near point of accommodation and amplitude of accommodation of the subjects before and after instillation of Timolol maleate 0.5% eye drop. After getting approval from the Institutional ethics committee, and informed consent,we recruited 40 emmetropic subjects (80 eyes) of ages between 35-45 years, and randomly assigned them to binocular once only instillation of one drop of Timolol maleate 0.5% eye drop (intervention group, 20 subjects) or Normal saline eye drop (Control group, 20 subjects). Near points of Accommodation (NPA) were measured in these 40 subjects by RAF rule prior to giving eye drop and then at half hourly interval after instillation till effect started to wean off. The statistical software SPSS version 25 was used for the analysis. Prospective assessor masked, randomised controlled interventional study. We found that the effect on NPA started to wean off after 8 hrs. However after an initial steady fall between 1-4 hr, NPA maintained a steady state between 4-8 hrs of instillation at points closer to eye by an average of 5.79 +/- 2.87cm (P &#60; 0.001).This tantamounts to presbyopia correction of + 1.21 +/- 0.42 Dioptre (P &#60; 0.001) sustained for 4 hrs between 4hrs and 8 hrs after instillation of drop. One drop of Timolol maleate 0.5% eye drop instilled binocularly can achieve correction of presbyopia to the tune of + 1.21 +/- 0.42 Dioptre, sustained for 4 hrs between 4 and 8 hrs after instillation.
Антиконкурентные должностные преступления как основание уголовной ответственности

Published: December 2024

Illegal activities of officials of state authorities and local self-government that restrict competition constitute a socially dangerous act of corruption committed in the economic sphere. One of its forms is the conclusion of anti-competitive agreements by officials of these bodies with business entities, prohibited by antimonopoly law. According to the National Security Strategy, this type of behavior represents a threat to national security, the fight against which is one of the important tasks facing the state. The criminal legal means of combating it, provided for by the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, are imperfect; they are characterized by problems not only of a theoretical, but also of a practical nature. The article provides an analysis of the existing situation and suggests ways to resolve it. One of them is a proposal to introduce an independent basis for criminal liability for agreements restricting competition between officials and business entities.
Dimensiones de la vida cotidiana potenciadas por las experiencias estéticas y culturales de personas con padecimientos subjetivos
Authors: Arias Anabel 
Published: December 2024

El artículo presenta un trabajo de investigación realizado con el apoyo de las Becas Salud Investiga 2022-2023, otorgada por el Ministerio de Salud de la Nación, a través de la Dirección de Investigación en Salud. En la interfaz de los campos del arte, la salud y la cultura, aborda los procesos creadores y las experiencias culturales de personas con padecimientos subjetivos que han recibido diagnósticos en salud mental e integran grupalidades en contextos institucionales. Se buscó conocer cómo se expresan y qué continuidades establecen dichos procesos y experiencias estéticas en la vida cotidiana. Para dar respuesta desde una perspectiva socio-crítica, este estudio cualitativo tuvo un diseño exploratorio-descriptivo. Se realizaron observaciones y entrevistas en cuatro espacios grupales (música, teatro, radio y experimentación plástica) ofrecidos en un hospital monovalente de la región centro-este del país, en el periodo 2022-2023.
El análisis del corpus de datos permitió reconstruir la diversidad de propuestas grupales promovidas en la institución desde una perspectiva histórica, describir las etapas implicadas en los procesos creadores y finalmente, ubicar tres dimensiones de transformación de la vida cotidiana en la que esos procesos creadores son apropiados. Estas son: una dimensión estética que refiere a los sentidos respecto de cómo son vivenciadas estas experiencias y el lugar que ocupa el hacer creador en la vida cotidiana; una dimensión socializante que ubica sentidos relacionados a la posibilidad de construir vínculos soportes de lo cotidiano; y una dimensión proyectiva, que refleja sentidos vinculados a la ampliación de territorios de participación social y la emergencia de narrativas que permiten localizar perspectivas de futuro en los proyectos de vida.
Se concluye en que estos espacios cuentan con una larga trayectoria en la institución, pudiendo ubicarse continuidades entre los procesos creadores y la vida cotidiana con potencial de transformación singular, grupal, comunitario, social y cultural.
