Borges sobre la traducción / Borges on translation
Authors: Jill Levine Suzanne 
Published: July 2021

El presente artículo tiene por objeto exponer la personal teoría de Borges sobre la traducción, y en concreto la traducción literaria. A partir de la literatura secundaria, pero sobre todo de la propia obra de Borges al respecto ¾concretamente los ensayos Las dos maneras de traducir (1926), Las versiones homéricas (1932), Los traductores de las 1001 noches (1936), El enigma de Edward Fitzgerald (1951) y la «ficción» Pierre Menard, autor del Quijote (1939)¾, se presentan y contextualizan las principales ideas del autor argentino, entre las que destaca el valor de la traducción como paradigma de lectura, escritura e interpretación de un texto. Asimismo se abordan aspectos que, si bien un sector de la teoría da hoy por supuestos, en su momento fueron pioneros, como son: la equiparación de original y traducción, la importancia del enfoque descriptivo y de la obra por encima del autor, el valor de la creatividad, la imposibilidad de que exista una sola traducción válida, el potencial de los errores de traducción, el concepto de ganancia a través de la traducción (no de pérdida), la (auto)censura y la ideología, etc. The aim of this article is to present Borges’ personal translation theory, particularly regarding literary translation. The Argentine author’s main ideas are introduced and contextualised through secondary literature, but especially through Borges’ own works in this regard ¾specifically the essays The Two Ways to Translate (1926), The Homeric Versions (1932), The Translators of the 1001 Nights (1936), The Enigma of Edward Fitzgerald (1951) and the «ficción» Pierre Menard, Author of Don Quixote (1939). Among those ideas, the value of translation as a paradigm for reading, writing, and text interpretation stands out. The article also deals with aspects that were pioneering in their time, even though nowadays they are taken for granted by some scholars. Those aspects include placing both the original and the translation on an equal plane, the importance of the descriptive approach and of the work over the author, the value of creativity, the impossibility of there being only one correct translation, the potential of mistranslations, the notion of gain through translation (instead of loss), (self)censorship and ideology, etc.

Published: July 2021

La utilización de textos literarios y de textos que ofrecen una diversidad de posibilidades estilísticas y formales constituye un excelente recurso en el desarrollo de las capacidades del traductor. Por un lado, sirven para intensificar su lectura y agudizar sus capacidades exegéticas. Por otro, en la medida en que lo obligan a analizar el modo en que están construidos los textos y los recursos formales que utilizan, le permiten perfeccionar sus capacidades expresivas. El artículo ofrece ejemplos de preguntas que el traductor, en su lectura, puede plantear al texto y de rasgos formales que debe aprender a reconocer como relevantes. Asimismo presenta breves fragmentos de un grupo de textos pertenecientes a diversos formatos textuales con un mínimo comentario de sus problemas. The use of ‘literary’ and other sorts of texts with a variety of formal and stylistic possibilities is an excellent resource in order to develop the skills of future translators. On the one hand, they contribute to intensify the reading skills and to sharpen the exegetical abilities of the students. On the other, to the extent that these texts make it necessary to analyze how they are constructed and which formal resources are used in them, they are a useful tool for perfecting expressive skills. The article provides examples of questions that the translator, in his/her reading, can ask the text, as well as formal features that must be recognized as relevant. It also presents brief excerpts from a group of texts with various textual formats, along with brief observations about the problems that they pose to the translator.
Ideas y expectativas del estudiante de traducción respecto a la traducción literaria / Ideas and expectations of translation and interpreting students about literary translation
Authors: Toda Castán Claudia 
Published: July 2021

En los últimos tiempos se ha publicado un número considerable de estudios que buscan monitorizar la enseñanza de la Traducción en España en el ámbito universitario y que para ello se han servido de cuestionarios que se distribuyeron a los estudiantes. Al mismo tiempo, el interés por hacer un seguimiento de antiguos alumnos de esta disciplina y de su inserción en el mercado laboral, así como por conocer la situación de los traductores literarios profesionales, ha llevado a la realización de cuestionarios entre traductores ya en ejercicio. Este trabajo pretende, ahora, dirigir estos intereses hacia el ámbito concreto de la enseñanza de la traducción literaria en la Universidad. Por medio de un cuestionario completado por 119 estudiantes de Traducción e Interpretación de la Facultad de Traducción y Documentación de la Universidad de Salamanca se pretende presentar sus ideas y expectativas respecto a la enseñanza de la traducción literaria, así como respecto al ejercicio de la profesión de traductor literario. Con ello se dibuja un perfil del estudiante que ha puesto de relieve aspectos interesantes. La toma de conciencia de estos aspectos por parte del profesorado y del propio alumnado puede servir, indudablemente, para mejorar en algunos aspectos de la enseñanza de la traducción literaria. A number of papers dealing with the way in which translation is taught at Spanish Universities have been published in recent years. Those papers tried to find out the opinion of students about the education they received by using questionnaires. The same technique was used in papers aiming at following the professional trajectories of Translation and Interpreting graduates, as well as showing the situation of professional translators. The present paper intends to bring the focus to the teaching of Literary Translation at University. 119 Translation and Interpreting students of the Faculty of Translation and Documentation of the University of Salamanca, in Spain, filled a questionnaire aimed at finding out their ideas and expectations about the teaching of Literary Translation, as well as about the profession of literary translator. The results made it possible to get an approximation to the opinions of students on these matters. Some interesting aspects appeared during this research. The fact that both professors and students become aware of these aspects could help improve the teaching of Literary Translation.

Published: July 2021

El presente estudio analiza las intenciones de los usuarios acerca del uso de sistemas de tele-enseñanza LMS (Learning Management Systems), basándose en un modelo que integra el Modelo de Aceptación Tecnológica (TAM, Technology Acceptance Model), la Teoría del Comportamiento Percibido (TPB, Theory of Planned Behavior) y la Teoría Unificada de la Aceptación y Uso de la Tecnología (UTAUT, Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology), tomando la edad como variable moderadora. Así, este artículo estudia la influencia de la intención conductual, la actitud hacia el uso, la facilidad de uso percibida, la utilidad percibida, la norma subjetiva y la influencia social en la intención de utilizar sistemas e-learning LMS. Como antecedentes de estos factores de influencia se plantean las características del sistema y del usuario. El resultado de la revisión teórica es un modelo unificado que ha sido validado con datos recogidos de 94 estudiantes a través de un cuestionario en línea. Estos datos han sido analizados utilizando la técnica de mínimos cuadrados parciales, y los principales resultados confirman la relevancia predictiva del modelo para usuarios de entre 26 y 35 años y de entre 36 y 45 años. This study analyses students’ intentions to use e-learning management systems based on an inventory which integrates the Technology Adoption Model (TAM), the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), with the difference of age as moderating variable. In particular, the most relevant learning management systems (LMS) adoption models have been reviewed from literature. Thus, this paper studies the influence of behavioral intention, attitude toward use, perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, subjective norms and social influence in the intention to use e-learning management systems. User and system characteristics have been proposed as antecedents of the former factors. The result of this review is a unified model which has been validated with data collected from 94 students through a web questionnaire, and the results from this data have been analysed using the partial least squares (PLS) method. The analysis has demonstrated the predictive relevance and the validation of the model for users between 26 to 35 years old and 36 to 45 years old.

Published: July 2021

La robótica educativa es un área multidisciplinaria de la ingeniería la cual a sido un elemento invaluable para fomentar la ciencia y la tecnología como algo divertido. Sin embargo los altos costos de su implementación como la dificultad de entrenamiento para los instructores la han hecho cada vez más común únicamente en países de primer mundo donde se cuenta con más presupuesto para su difusión. Es por eso que nace el concepto del Laboratorio Móvil Tecno Educativo, el cual tiene como fundamento la aplicación de cursos de robótica basados en la filosofía BEAM, a su vez incorpora prácticas de ciencias y prácticas cognitivas. El objetivo del proyecto es el de crear un nuevo concepto de aprendizaje robótico democrático a través del diseño y desarrollo de una plataforma tecno-educativa para niños y jóvenes con la finalidad de fomentar la alfabetización científica y tecnológica para el desarrollo de conocimiento y pensamiento analítico y científico. La evaluación de los cursos muestran una mejora del 36% respecto al conocimiento de ciencias y matemáticas, lo que demuestra la necesidad de incorporar un curso de robótica dado a un nivel general público.

Authors: Keshavarzi Maryam , Mosaferi Samaneh , Abivardi Fatemeh 
Published: July 2021

Aeluropus, a member of Poaceae subfam. Chloridoideae, includes six species, three of which occur in Iran. They are perennial halophytes of deserts and coastal marshlands of Iran. The genus is considered as a rich genetic source for gene manipulation and using it for crop improvement. Previous studies showed that members of Chloridoideae have small chromosomes and the base chromosome number n = 10. There are few chromosome records for Aeluropus species. Somatic metaphases of seven populations of three Aeluropus species were studied. The first chromosome counts (2n = 20) based on Iranian material for three species, A. macrostachyus, A. littoralis and A. lagopoides, are concordant with previous records outside Iran; mitotic number for A. macrostachyus is recorded here for the first time.

Objective: The aim of the study was to fabricate and morphologically characterize ultrafine Polyetherimide fibers (PEI) associated with Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) – PP (group formed by the association of PEI with PMMA), produced by the electrospinning process. Material and Methods: A solution of PEI (0.562 g) + PMMA (0.377 g) dissolved in 2.5 mL of chloroform, 0.85 mL of Dimethylformamide (DMF) and 0.85 mL of 1.1.2.2 Tetrachloroethane (TCE) was prepared. For the electrospinning process, different continuous voltages (10 to 18 kV) and two different distances (8 and 12 cm) between the needle tip and the collecting apparatus were used, giving rise to 6 distinct groups of ultrafine fibers (PP 1 to 6) that were observed in Scanning Electron Microscopy to check for defects and calculate the average diameter of the fibers. Results: The best parameter, the parameter that was most effective for the production of fibers, observed was subjected to Energy Dispersion X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Contact Angle Analysis tests. The data were analyzed using the ANOVA and Tukey test (p <0.05). From the comparative analysis of the pre-established parameters, the pattern of PP4 ultrafine fibers was shown to be more effective. Conclusion: The PP4 standard (13 kV – 12 cm) had an average diameter of 0.37 µm. An adequate parameter to electrospinning was able to produce ultrafine fibers of PMMA/PEI.

Authors: Ibraheem Yousra Abdulkareem , Alwahab Zahraa Nazar 
Published: July 2021

Objective: this in vitro study was done to evaluate the effect of packable P60 composite and Tetric N-Ceram composite veneer material on fracture strength of zirconia cores. Material and Methods: Twenty four zirconium cores (Vita, Germany) with 0.7 mm thickness were fabricated by CAD/CAM technology and then subjected to air abrasion with 50µm of Al2O3. Cores were randomly divided into three groups according to veneering material (group A: control group sandblasted with 50 µm Al2O3 veneered by IPS E-max Ceram porcelain, group C: sandblasted with 50 µm Al2O3, etching with hydrofluoric acid and veneered with P60 composite, group E: sandblasted with 50 µm Al2O3, etching with hydrofluoric acid and veneered with Tetric N-Ceram composite). All crowns were subjected to fracture strength test in the testing machine, with load application by steel ball indenter and 0.5 mm/min. cross head speed. Results: statistical analysis was carried out utilizing one-way ANOVA, LSD. The results of fracture strength value test showed the highest mean value was registered for group (A), and the lowest mean for group (E). One-way ANOVA test represented that, there was a statistically high significant different among all groups. LSD results showed a high significant difference increase in fracture resistance for Group A at p value (*P<0.001 High significant). Conclusions: Within the limitation of this study, sandblasting zirconia core with 50 µm Al2O3 and veneering with conventional ceramic produced restoration with acceptable fracture resistance value.

Published: July 2021

Background: Some herbal products could affect on salivary pH and prevention of dental caries. Tea consumption has inhibition effects on some oral bacteria. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of green and black tea on salivary pH. Material and Methods: In this double blinded cross-over trial, salivary samples of 50 healthy male students of Zahedan Faculty of Dentistry, aged 20-22 years old were collected for evaluation of salivary pH. All volunteers were asked to consume commercially black tea on the first day and then saliva samples were collected before drinking tea and immediately after drinking tea and 5 and 10 minutes after tea consumption. With replacing consumption of green tea, at the second day, saliva samples were collected again. Then the salivary pH was estimated with a digital pH-meter. Data were analyzed through independent t-test and paired samples t-test. Results: Mean salivary pH before and after green tea consumption were 7.15±0.05 and 7.56±0.09, respectively, which showed a remarkable difference (p<0.001). It was 7.14±0.05 and 7.51 ± 0.10, respectively, for black tea, with significant difference (p<0.0001). Mean salivary pH after green tea consumption was significantly higher than black tea (p= 0.006). Conclusion: Both green and black tea intake led to a significant rise in salivary pH, which was higher after green tea consumption compared to black tea. This study suggests the beneficial effects of drinking tea in providing an alkaline environment in oral cavity.

Objective: To evaluate the level of awareness and attitude among dental practitioners regarding the use of stem cells in dentistry and to determine their knowledge of ethical concerns related to the recent therapy. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional survey-based study was conducted at Taibah University Dental College and Hospital. Medina and at governmental and private dental clinics at the western region of Saudi Arabia. Responses of dental practitioners who completed the survey were recorded between March 2019 and July 2019 without containing any personal identifiers. Level of awareness and attitude and knowledge about ethical issues in relation to stem cell therapy was established. Results: A total of 214 male and female dental practitioners participated in this study and the majority were registered at the Saudi Commission for Health Specialists 128 (59.8%). Dental consultants reported the highest percentage of awareness about dental stem cells (96%, p= 0.005), whereas general dental practitioners (56.2%, p= 0.005) and specialists (52%, p= 0.005), respectively had a lower percentage. When ethical concerns were determined, dental consultants had the highest percentage of knowledge (56%, p= 0.005), whereas dental practitioners (71.2%, p= 0.005) with < 5 years of experience (69.1, p= 0.002) lacked information about related ethical issues. Conclusion: Ways to increase stem cell awareness among dental practitioners in this study recommended including stem cell topics in the dental curriculum and organizing frequent seminars and conferences on this subject.

Patient Satisfaction and Pink Esthetics of PEEK Versus Zirconium Abutments in the Esthetic Zone (A Randomized Controlled Trial)
Authors: El-Shabrawy Mostafa Mahmoud , A Zaki Amina , Elguindy Jylan , El Nahass Hani , Abou Bakr Karim 
Published: July 2021

Objective: This study was performed to evaluate the use of PEEK abutments versus zirconium abutments with lithium disilicate superstructure on the esthetic acceptance and peri-implant clinical parameters. Zirconium abutments were found to have high surface roughness even after polishing. This causes a remarkable collapse of the soft tissue papilla that is a primary factor in the Pink Esthetic Score(PES), resulting in failed esthetic restoration in the anterior esthetic zone. Material and Methods: Twenty patients who needed a single implant restoration in the esthetic zone were included in this study. Eighteen patients completed screening, baseline, three-month, six-month, and twelve-month follow-up visits. At the screening visit, the patients were randomly allocated into two groups: Zirconia abutments (A) Group, and PEEK abutments (B) Group, both of which were restored with IPS e.max CAD superstructure. Patients Satisfaction was assessed by visual analogue scale (VAS). Pink esthetics score (PES), modified plaque index (mPI) and modified gingval index (mGI) were also assessed. Results: All implants were successfully osseo-integrated with a 100% survival rate over one year. Patient satisfaction was significantly higher for the PEEK group than the zirconium group. The pink esthetic score showed no statistical significance between both groups. The modified plaque index was significantly lower for the PEEK group than the zirconium group. The modified gingival index showed no statistical difference between both groups. Conclusion: PEEK revealed to be a versatile material to replace zirconium for implant abutments, due to its lower plaque affinity and higher patient satisfaction.
