Three-dimensional omnidirectional acoustic illusion
Authors: Hu Chuanjie , Yin Yuhang , Chen Huanyang 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
Acoustic waves are ubiquitous in human everyday experience, therefore, precise control over the deformation of acoustic waves is always extremely desirable, which can be used, for example, to transform or hide objects from incident waves. Acoustic illusion devices are generally implemented by transformation acoustics, which can deceive ears or sonar systems. Challenges remain, the complexed and extreme material parameters prescribed by coordinate transformation theory make the implementations particularly difficult, even with the help of acoustic metamaterials. Here, a novel method based on Fabry-Perot resonances offers a feasible solution for achieve three-dimensional (3D) omnidirectional passive acoustic illusion. We theoretically demonstrated perfect 3D acoustic illusion via Mie theory, reduced version is further designed numerically and implemented experimentally. In the future, our work opens new possibilities for the implementation of modern acoustic illusion devices, such as camouflage for anti-sonar detection.
Especies invasoras, salud y conocimientos en un humedal tropical: estudio interdisciplinario en la Ciénaga de Santo Tomás
Authors: Escobar Jiménez Kelly , Díez Jiménez Adriano , Caselles-Osorio Aracelly 
Published: December 2021

La investigación se concentró en las percepciones y prácticas que la población aledaña a la Ciénaga de Santo Tomás (Atlántico, Norte de Colombia) manifiesta ante la proliferación de especies acuáticas invasoras y sus impactos en la salud humana. La Ciénaga hace parte del plano inundable del río Magdalena, la principal corriente de agua dulce del país. Sus principales servicios ecosistémicos corresponden a la pesca artesanal, el riego agrícola y pastoreo de ganado. Las plantas acuáticas invasoras constituyen los principales albergues de mosquitos transmisores de enfermedades. La población migrante de la región habita las riberas de la ciénaga y usa directamente el agua para su abastecimiento. Este artículo presenta los resultados alcanzados mediante la aplicación de una metodología inductiva mixta durante el año 2018, con la que se hallaron formas emergentes de conocimiento y manejo del ambiente con relación a la salud y la enfermedad. En la intersección -y a veces contradicción- entre los conocimientos científicos interdisciplinares y los conocimientos locales, se resaltan situaciones de “movilidad multisespecies” que permitieron discutir hipótesis como la naturalización del riesgo a mayor tiempo de exposición, debido a las situaciones de “performance” encontradas, igualmente, se captaron fenómenos de estigmatización de los migrantes venezolanos y de desinterés en el conocimiento del entorno por parte de algunas mujeres entrevistadas, todo ello muestra la necesidad de relacionar los problemas de salud a nivel local no solo con el conocimiento, el tiempo de vivir cerca de la Ciénaga y la percepción del riesgo, sino también con asuntos como la inseguridad en la tenencia de la tierra, la condición de migrante y el género.
Rumores falam em luta armada:
Authors: De Farias José Aírton 
Published: December 2021

Este artigo trata da cidade de Fortaleza-CE como espaço das agitações políticas do ano de 1968. Aborda as diversas organizações estudantis que realizaram passeatas na capital cearense, não raro, entrando em atritos com as forças policiais. O ano de 1968 foi marcado também pela realização das primeiras ações armadas no estado. Ante os limitados resultados das mobilizações estudantis de 1968, aumentava cada vez mais, entre alguns militantes de esquerda, o desejo da guerrilha como opção política para derrubar a ditadura e implantar o socialismo. Nos anos seguintes, há uma imersão de militantes na luta armada, logo desbaratada perante a repressão dos militares.

Pobreza e perdas territoriais na obra Machombongo, de Euclides da Cunha
Authors: Ferreira Juliana Cristina 
Published: December 2021

Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar as perdas territoriais e a pobreza que as personagens trabalhadoras rurais sofriam no período em que, ocorria no Brasil, o Golpe de 1964, representado na obra Machombongo (2014), de Euclides Neto. A fazenda era o local onde os trabalhadores sofriam com a miséria, resultado da perda da moradia, do salário aviltante, da escravização dos homens livres (trabalhadores) e do silenciamento. Para uma melhor compreensão buscamos apoio teórico em Maria Moura (1978), sobre as relações de poder entre o fazendeiro e os agregados e Deleuze e Guattari (1995), para compreendemos o processo de desterritorialização que os trabalhadores rurais sofriam. A metodologia baseia-se na pesquisa bibliográfica e na análise da obra em questão.

Dignidad
Authors: Dos Santos de Mattos Renata 
Published: December 2021

O presente artigo tem como objetivo refletir, a partir da análise de documentos desclassificados dos EUA, o papel da comunidade alemã liderada por Paul Schäfer no Chile, Colonia Dignidad, enquanto espaço de prisão, tortura e assassinato utilizado pelo principal órgão do aparato repressivo chileno, a Dirección de Inteligencia Nacional (DINA). Instaurada a ditadura no Chile em 1973, Augusto Pinochet ordenou a criação de uma poderosa estrutura de Inteligência e informação com a finalidade de eliminar os opositores do regime. Assim, sob os preceitos do Terrorismo de Estado, a DINA passou a atuar, estabelecendo recintos clandestinos de detenção por todo o país. Nesse sentido, Dignidad surge não apenas como local, mas também como uma das mais destacadas colaboradoras nas violações aos direitos humanos do período.

НЕЙРОПРОТЕКТОРНІ ВЛАСТИВОСТІ α-ЛІПОЄВОЇ КИСЛОТИ У ХВОРИХ НА ДІАБЕТ
Authors: Соколова Любов , Пушкарьов Володимир , Тронько Микола 
Published: December 2021

В огляді наведені дані, що свідчать про зв'язок діабету з порушеннями когнітивних здібностей людини. При цукровому діабеті (ЦД) спостерігаються серйозні структурні і функціональні зміни в нервовій системі і її кровоносних судинах. ЦД прискорює розвиток хвороби Альцгеймера, стимулюючи утворення сенильних бляшок і нейрофібрилярних клубочків. Ключовими факторами даного ускладнення діабету є гіпер- і гіпоглікемія, а також порушення передачі сигналів інсуліну/IGF. α-ліпоєва кислота (α-LA) - сильний природний антиоксидант, який впливає на низку клітинних процесів, включаючи пряме видалення радикалів, хелатування металів, регенерацію ендогенних антиоксидантів, таких як вітаміни С і Е, модуляцію активності факторів транскрипції, пов’язаних з експресією клітинних антиоксидантів. α-LA діє також, як кофактор біоенергетичних мітохондріальних ферментів. Показано, що вона покращує функцію ендотелію та кровотік, відновлює пошкоджені клітини в ЦНС, а також прискорює синтез глютатіону, який відіграє вирішальну роль у регулюванні експресії декількох антиоксидантних та протизапальних генів, володіє протидіабетичними властивостями.
Отже, сучасні дані надійно свідчать про те, що α-LA характеризується потужними нейропротективними ефектами і здатна покращувати когнітивні параметри, усуваючи порушення, пов’язані з різноманітними нейродегенеративними розладами (хвороби Альцгеймера, Паркінсона, Хантінгтона, розсіяний склероз, пошкодження спинного мозку та ін.), впливом нейротоксинів, металів, а також з нормальним старінням. α-LA покращує пам'ять, у різних парадигмах навчання та пам'яті, включаючи аверсивну, просторову та розпізнавальну пам'ять.
В основі біохімічних механізмів дії α-LA лежать її позитивні ефекти щодо інсулінового рецептора, сигнального шляху PI3K/Akt та рівня Nrf2, а також пригнічення ключового прозапального фактора NF-κB, експресії і секреції запальних цитокінів і медіаторів, таких як PGE2, COX-2, iNOS, TNF-α, IL-1β та IL-6.

Objective: To develop a valid and reliable questionnaire about knowledge, attitudes, and practices towards Covid-19 (KAPCovQ) in the general community based on psychometric properties.
Methods: This study consisted of item development, scale development, and scale evaluation. Item development was based on literature review and content validity by experts. Scale development was conducted by pre-testing ten respondents. Scale evaluation was assessed using 375 respondents. Scale evaluation included construct validity with exploratory factor analysis (EFA) followed by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and reliability test with Cronbach’s α, composite reliability, and test-retest reliability.
Results: The final KAPCovQ consisted of 3 domains with 31 items. Twelve items of the knowledge domain met the acceptable range for item analysis. Three factors of attitude domain and one factor of practice domain showed that 59.13% and 57.97% of the total variance respectively were identified in EFA. The result of the CFA for both attitude and practices domain indicated acceptable fit indices for the proposed model. The CFA model fit indices of attitude domain were χ2/df 2.05, p-value 0.01, GFI 0.92, RMSEA 0.07, TLI 0.90, CFI 0.92, and PNFI 0.64 and practices domain were χ2/df 1.18, p-value 0.28, GFI 0.98, RMSEA 0.03, TLI 0.98, CFI 0.99, and PNFI 0.54. Knowledge and all factors in the attitude and practice domain had an acceptable range in internal consistency reliability and test-retest reliability.
Conclusion: The finding of this study demonstrated that KAPCovQ is valid and reliable for measuring the KAP on Covid-19 in the general community.

Authors: RAHAYUNINGSIH NUR , OKTAVIAN ROFFY , NOFIANTI TITA 
Published: December 2021

Objective: Diarrheal disease and its complications remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality in children, especially in developing countries. It is usually a symptom of an infection in the intestinal tract, which can be caused by a variety of bacterial, viral, parasitic or organisms. The purpose of this study was to determine the activity and dose of white pomegranate peel (Punica granatum L.) ethanol extract as an antidiarrheal in white male mice using the intestinal transit method.
Methods: Mice were grouped into 5 groups: negative control (Na CMC 1 %), positive control (loperamide HCl 0.0104 mg/20 g mice BW), and pomegranate peel ethanol extract test group 1, 2, and 3 (dose of 16, 32, and 64 mg/20 g mice BW). The length of the intestine that the ink marker traversed from the pylorus to the end (which is black) was measured using a ruler.
Results: Based on statistical analysis, there were significant differences between all groups (<0.05). The highest antidiarrheal activity was in the ethanolic extract of pomegranate peel at a dose of 64 mg/20 g mice BW with an inhibition percentage of 36.44% and higher than the positive control (29.81%). The inhibition percentage was also resulted by dose 1 and 2 (12.46% and 29.53%, respectively).
Conclusion: From these results show a correlation that the higher the extract dose, the higher the antidiarrheal potential.

Published: December 2021

Introduction: Atrial pacing can unmask or aggravate a
preexisting interatrial block (IAB). Our study aimed to determine
whether atrial pacing is associated with the development of atrial
high-rate episodes (AHRE) during follow-up. Methods and
Results: Patients with dual-chamber cardiac implantable electronic
devices (CIED), no previous documented atrial fibrillation, and with a
6-month minimum follow-up were included. In all patients, sinus and
paced P-wave duration was measured. AHRE was defined as an episode of
atrial rate ≥ 225 bpm with a minimum duration of 5 min, excluding those
documented during the first three months after implantation. Two hundred
twenty patients were included (75 ± 10 years, 61% male). After a mean
follow-up of 59±25 months, 46% of patients presented AHRE. Mean paced
P-wave duration was significantly longer than the sinus P-wave duration
(154±27 vs 115±18 ms; p < 0.001). Sinus and paced P-waves were
significantly longer in those who developed AHRE (sinus: 119±20 vs
112±16; p = 0.006; paced: 161±29 vs 148±23; p < 0.001). A
paced P-wave ≥160 ms was the best predictor of AHRE, especially those
lasting >24 h (OR 4.2 (95% CI) [1.6-11.4]; p = 0.004).
Conclusion: Atrial pacing significantly prolongs P-wave
duration and is associated with further development of AHRE. A paced
P-wave ≥160 ms is a strong predictor of AHRE and should be taken into
consideration as a new definition of IAB in the presence of atrial
pacing.

Authors: Muhammad Aslam  , Chaudhary Abid Hussain 
Published: December 2021

Workplace Spirituality (WS) is recognized as inner state of individuals and an aspect of their working life. This study was conducted to evaluate the psychometric properties of Workplace Spirituality Scale (WPS) developed by Petchsawang and Duchon (2009) in Pakistani context school teachers. The participants for this study were 400 public school teachers. The present study was a quantitative research and cross-sectional survey design was applied. The data were collected personally by researchers and necessary guidelines were shared with the respondents. EFA and CFA were applied to evaluate the psychometric properties of Workplace Spirituality Scale (WPS) in Pakistani context. The results confirm the four factors model (transcendence, mindfulness, compassion and meaningful work) and generalizability of WPS. Furthermore, statistical analysis established adequate reliability and validity of WPS. The modifications in this scale are mentioned, and recommendations for further research are discussed.
Pre-stroke physical activity in relation to post-stroke outcomes – linked to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF): A scoping review
Authors: Viktorisson Adam , Reinholdsson Malin , Danielsson Anna , Palstam Annie , Stibrant Sunnerhagen Katharina 
Published: December 2021

Objective: This scoping review aims to identify how pre-stroke physical activity (PA) has been studied in relation to outcomes after stroke using the ICF framework. Methods: MEDLINE, CINAHL, Scopus, and grey literature databases were systematically searched from inception to March 15, 2021, with no language restrictions. Risk of bias was evaluated for all included studies. Identified outcome measures were linked to ICF components using linking rules, and the main findings were summarized. Results: Of 3664 records screened, 35 studies were included. The risk of bias was graded as moderate to critical for all studies. There were 60 unique outcome measures studied in relation to pre-stroke PA, covering the hyper acute to chronic phases of stroke recovery. Outcome measures linked to body functions were most common (n=19), followed by activities and participation (n=14), body structures (n=7), environmental factors (n=4) and personal factors (n=2). There were large differences in assessments of pre-stroke PA, and only one study analysed haemorrhagic cases separately. Conclusions: Pre-stroke PA has been studied in relation to all components in the ICF framework. However, this review highlights the high risk of bias, heterogeneity in pre-stroke PA assessments, and the lack of information regarding haemorrhagic strokes in the current literature.
Lay Abstract
We used the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) to categorise the outcome measures of 35 studies. The ICF includes the following domains of health: body functions, body structures, activities, participation, and environmental factors. We identified 60 outcome measures, covering all domains of the ICF. Most common were measures related to body functions such as stroke symptoms, cognition or respiratory function, and activities or participation, such as functional recovery and walking ability. Few studies evaluated personal and environmental factors. Most studies collected information on physical activity before the stroke after the stroke had occurred, and all studies used self-reported information which is problematic from a scientific point of view and can lead to erroneous results. Future studies are needed to determine the true impact of physical activity on outcomes after stroke.
