Introduction: Food security is a rising concern worldwide. It is estimated that more than one billion people lack adequate supply of dietary energy and that at least half that amount suffers from micronutrient deficiencies. It is influenced by several factors: income, employment, race/ethnicity and disability, which adversely affect health. Food security has been considered as a risk factor for depression, stress and anxiety.
Aims & Objectives: The research aimed to find the effect of food insecurity on mental health using systematic analysis.
Place and duration of study: Data was gathered using Google Scholar, Medline, Embase, Science Direct and books from studies conducted between 2015 and 2020.
Material & Methods: Systematic analysis was conducted with references to the literature.
Results: This review showed a strong link of food insecurity with mental health status like depression, anxiety, and stress.
Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, the tests of depression and mental health in both secured and foodinsecure food areas should be mandatory at the primary health level. It is suggested that food insecurity interventions on national and regional levels may help reduce the prevalence of depression, anxiety, and stress and improve the overall mental health status of the community.

Published: November 2021

Introduction: Menopause is the permanent cessation of menses, typically occurs in women of 45-55 years. Menopause is associated with a number of somatic, psychological and sexual symptoms due to decline in estradiol levels resulting in poor quality of life of postmenopausal females.
Aims & Objectives: The purpose of the current study was to determine the effect of Nigella sativa on menopausal symptoms and estradiol levels in postmenopausal females.
Place and duration of study: Department of Physiology PGMI, Lahore for 8 weeks.
Material & Methods: It was an interventional study conducted on 30 postmenopausal females. Nigella sativa was administered in the dose of 1g/day after breakfast for a period of 8 weeks. Menopausal Rating Scale (MRS) was filled and blood sample was taken before and after giving Nigella sativa for estradiol and testosterone levels. Data was analyzed by paired t-test using SPSS-21 and p- value less than 0.05 was considered significant.
Results: The result of the study showed that there was statistically significant reduction in the overall score of MRS (p = 0.001) and in all its domains, somatic (p=0.001), psychological (p=0.001) and urogenital (p=0.017). There was also significant improvement in blood estradiol level after 8 weeks of Nigella sativa administration (p= 0.021).
Conclusion: Nigella sativa supplementation increases estradiol level and decreases menopausal symptoms severity as indicted by significant reduction in the 3 domains of MRS and may be used by postmenopausal females on regular basis to improve their quality of life.

Published: November 2021

Introduction: Learning approach is impacted by character attributes, domain of study, assignments assigned and requirements of medical/dental program. This helps in acquiring cognition through surface and deep learning that influences the amount and standard of learner’s acquisition of knowledge.
Aims & Objectives: The objective of this work was to appraise Learning Approach (Deep or Surface Learning) of dental students at a public sector medical college.
Place and duration of study: Bolan Medical College, Quetta, June-November 2016.
Material & Methods: After ethical approval, a descriptive observational Census was conducted using RLS tool on 85 BDS (Bachelors of Dental Surgery) students at Bolan Medical College, Quetta. Data was collected on 14 RLS Likert scale variables and analyzed with SPSS version 20.
Results: Eighty-five students participated in study; the response rate was 89.4%. Females constituted 72% of the participants with a mean composite RLS score of 64.26 ± 12.46. Highest mean score was noted for variable 6 (aware of learning task 6.07 + 1.46) with 85% reporting a positive attitude, followed by 71% on variable 14 (self-assess 5.36+ 1.95),68% on variable 12 (use capacity to reflect 5.24 + 1.66) and variable 8 (ponder for learning 5.24 + 1.59). Sixtyseven percent students were able to eliminate study related negative feelings. No statistically significant differences were found between genders and four academic years on all 14 items.
Conclusion: BDS students demonstrated deep learning behavior through mitigating their negative thinking, memorizing learned material, self-assessment of their work and clarifying concepts by making association among themes to better understand the acquired knowledge and impression about subjects.
The Role of Diagnostic Laparoscopy in the Unexplained Infertility Cases
Authors: Hamed Ibrahim Arafa I. , Shady Nahla Waer , Ait-Allah Abdu Saeed 
Published: November 2021

Purpose: The study examines how useful laparoscopy is in finalizing the diagnosis of unexplained infertility.
Materials: The study included 50 women with 1 year or 2 years of infertility, who had a regular marital life with unprotected intercourse for more than a year, normal husband's semen analysis, normal ovulation by folliculometry, normal hormonal profile, and normal hysterosalpingogram at the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Aswan University Hospital from January to December 2019.
Methods: This is a cross-sectional observational study involving 50 women who underwent diagnostic laparoscopy after investigations and imaging failed to reveal the cause of infertility. During the procedure, the pelvis was inspected for any pathology, including the uterus, fallopian tubes, round ligaments, ureterovesical pouch, uterosacral ligaments, Douglas pouch, and ovarian fossae.
Results: Diagnostic laparoscopy helped uncover abnormal pathologies such as endometriosis, adhesions, and tubal pathologies in 30 women (60%) of the 50 included in the study, whereas no abnormality was detected in the remaining 20 (40%).
Conclusion: Laparoscopy is not only a crucial diagnostic technique in infertility patients, but it can also help with treatment selections. Conducting laparoscopy in cases of unexplained infertility is linked to both peritubular adhesions and pelvic endometriosis. These pelvic disorders might not be appropriately detected or treated without laparoscopy, and hysterosalpingography and basic imaging such as pelvic ultrasonography are frequently ignored.
Caminhos latino-americanos a inspirar a jurisdição constitucional brasileira no diálogo multinível do constitucionalismo regional transformador
Authors: Moura Rafael Osvaldo Machado , Barbosa Claudia Maria 
Published: November 2021

Apesar do emergir de um Ius Constitutionale Commune na América Latina (ICCAL), marcado por um cogente diálogo judicial multinível, sobretudo entre a Corte Interamericana (Corte IDH) e as jurisdições constitucionais, o Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) não tem dado ouvidos aos precedentes interamericanos, mostrando-se indiferente a eles, o que tem comprometido o desenvolvimento e aplicação de standards comuns em matéria de direitos humanos, democracia e Estado de direito e enfraquecido a capacidade de resiliência brasileira frente aos riscos de graves retrocessos nesses temas. Portanto, como modificar o comportamento hermeticamente nacional do STF e fazê-lo, no exercício de suas funções jurisdicionais, levar em conta a ratio decidendi das manifestações da Corte IDH? A pesquisa busca respostas a esse problema na experiência comprovadamente exitosa das cortes constitucionais da Colômbia, do México e da Bolívia, identificando os modelos e mecanismos utilizados nesses três países e ainda não implementados no Brasil, aptos a promover maior abertura do STF ao diálogo com a Corte IDH. Assim, como conclusão maior, sem prejuízo de outras iniciativas relevantes, propõe – como causa e consequência da consolidação da comunidade de prática de direitos humanos interamericanos - a adoção, por parte do Estado brasileiro, das diretrizes da interpretação conforme o direito internacional dos direitos humanos e do princípio pro persona.

Pathergy test with a 23G needle with and without self-saliva in patients with Behçet’s disease, recurrent aphthous stomatitis and control group compared to the 20G test
Authors: Shenavandeh Saeedeh , Kazem Sadeghi Seyyed Mohammad , Aflaki Elham 
Published: November 2021

IntroductionThe pathergy test (PT) is part of the diagnostic criteria of Behçet’s disease (BD). Factors like needle character and number of punctures can affect the sensitivity of PT. We tried to compare its positivity using a thinner needle with and without self-saliva in active and inactive BD, recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS), and healthy people.Material and methodsTwenty patients with active and 13 with inactive BD, 20 with RAS, and 34 healthy controls underwent 3 types of PT: 1 – the most recommended 20G dry needle PT, 2 – 23G dry needle PT, and 3 – 23G PT with self-saliva. The positivity and diagnostic accuracy of the tests between groups were compared.ResultsAll tests were negative in the normal healthy group. In active BD, the positivity of PT with self-saliva (70%) was higher than the 20G PT (20%) (p-value = 0.004), being more correlated to disease activity (p-value = 0.046). In the RAS group, there was no difference in the positivity of all tests (p-value = 0.068). All tests had high diagnostic accuracy in discriminating between patients with active BD and the controls (p < 0.05). The pathergy test with self-saliva showed significant diagnostic accuracy in discriminating BD from non-BD participants (p < 0.001). The results of dry 23G PT were the same as those of 20G PT.ConclusionsThe self-saliva PT test was more positive in patients with active BD, correlated with disease activity, was more sensitive, had equal specificity in detecting BD from the control group, and was more sensitive but less specific in detecting BD, compared to the RAS group. The positivity and accuracy of dry 23G needle PT were the same as the 20G PT. Pathergy test with self-saliva using a thin (23G) needle is more sensitive has equal specificity in detecting patients with BD compared to the control group and is more sensitive but less specific in detecting the patients with BD compared to the RAS group. The positivity and accuracy of dry 23G needle PT is the same as the most recommended 20G dry PT. Pathergy test by wet 23G needle (with self-saliva) is more positive in patients with active BD compared to PT by dry 20G needle.

Published: November 2021

IntroductionRheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory arthritis that may lead to severe joint pain. There are several scores to evaluate the disease activity of RA. This study aimed to evaluate if clinical factors which representing activity scores and health assessment score.Material and methodsThis study was conducted prospectively by including adult patients with RA. Clinical factors and 5 RA disease activity and health assessment scores were evaluated. Each activity score was executed for clinical predictors by using multivariate linear regression analysis.ResultsThere were 33 female adult patients in the study. The average (SD) age was 52.33 (11.11) years, while the duration of RA was 7.65 years. The DAS28 ESR had 1 predictor: RA duration with a coefficient of –0.04. For DAS28 CRP, CDAI, and SDAI scores, body mass index (BMI) and RA duration were independent factors for the scores with negative coefficient values. For the HAQ score, both age and rheumatoid duration were positively associated with the score. The coefficients of both factors were 0.02 and 0.03, respectively.ConclusionsAge, RA duration, and BMI were associated with RA activity and functional score. Body mass index is a potential modifiable factor that may be associated with RA activities.
La concentración en la industria manufacturera salvadoreña
Authors: Montoya Aquiles 
Published: November 2021

Este artículo analiza la problemática de la concentración y heterogeneidad estructural en la manufactura. Expone que la concentración y centralización del capital son tendencias normales del capitalismo y ambas se manifiestan en la concentración estadístico estructural. Esta última en sí misma es resultado del crecimiento de las empresas, lo cual engrandece la economía pero también puede tener consecuencias negativas, como la formación de monopolios y oligopolios. Ahora bien, la concentración implica concentración de la propiedad y, por tanto, del ingreso, lo cual tiene repercusiones serias en términos sociales y de equidad.

Experiencias de articulación con la sociedad de Patagonia desde la universidad: la historia como constructora de otros futuros
Authors: Gatica Mónica Graciela , Sourrouille Marcos , Blanco Pablo Daniel , Binder Axel Hernán , Álvarez Gonzalo Pérez 
Published: November 2021

Abordamos cinco experiencias de articulación con la sociedad de Patagonia, construidas en diversas instancias de nuestras trayectorias desde la carrera de Historia. Se exploran las relaciones con el movimiento obrero, las Memorias y las luchas por los Derechos Humanos, la construcción de archivos sensibles, la visibilización de dinámicas sociales vivenciadas por colectivos migrantes y las demandas de las comunidades de pueblos originarios. Buscamos comprender los actos de estos sujetos, pretendiendo aportar, desde nuestro conocimiento específico, herramientas para resolver sus problemáticas sociales. Son procesos que implican entrar en diálogo con nuestra sociedad, cuestionando falsos consensos y propiciando transformaciones. Se trata de develar el significado vital, corrosivo, y a veces agresivo y rebelde, de muchas dinámicas que para otras perspectivas de análisis podrían parecer irrelevantes. Nuestra perspectiva nos permite superar esas limitaciones, y pensar el presente asumiendo que el mismo puede ser modificado, ya que no es un hecho natural; estudiamos el pasado, pero mirando hacia el futuro, como nos enseñó Josep Fontana. Recuperar trayectorias que visibilicen los múltiples legados, implica construir conocimiento y articularlo con las necesidades de nuestra sociedad. No se trata de un ejercicio de “mera erudición”, como diría Traverso, sino de un acto político y transformador.

Se estima el comportamiento del caudal del estero Batuco, principal afluente de la microcuenca agroforestal Batuco en la Comuna de Ránquil, entre enero de 1975 y diciembre de 2064, en el escenario del cambio climático RCP8.5. Para tal efecto se simuló hidrológicamente la microcuenca Batuco, usando el modelo y software en versión gratuita WEAP. La información de entrada del modelo para estimar el caudal simulado provino de distintas bases de datos, tanto in situ como de reanálisis cercano a la zona de estudio, así como de datos aproximados del consumo (habitantes y cultivos). Se crearon series temporales para la precipitación y temperatura con los datos in situ, para posteriormente usarse como base para aplicar una corrección de sesgo a los datos de reanálisis Arclim.
Los resultados son una primera aproximación que podrá ser mejorada cuando se pueda calibrar in situ con datos de caudal observado, los cuales actualmente no existen para la zona de estudio. No obstante, evidencian tendencias claras a la reducción sostenida de los caudales.
Se determinó que el caudal simulado del estero Batuco marca una pendiente negativa en el periodo de estudio (1975-2064) de ≈−6,3 L/s por década, que se manifiesta también para todas las temporadas del año. Las anomalías estandarizadas de los promedios por cada 10 años, muestran en el periodo de 1980 un valor ≈ 1,2 desviaciones estándar con respecto a la media de la serie, mientras que en el periodo del 2060 se alcanza un valor ≈ -1,5. Las anomalías estandarizadas de las pendientes por cada 10 años sugieren un comportamiento cíclico, donde su amplitud disminuye con el tiempo para toda la serie y las diferentes temporadas del año.
Crecimiento y supervivencia de un ensayo de procedencias y progenies de Roble (Nothofagus obliqua (Mirb.) Oerst.) de 21 años de edad en Pumillahue, Región de los Ríos, Chile
Authors: Gutiérrez Caro Braulio , Navarrate T. Mauricio 
Published: November 2021

Se evalúa el desempeño en crecimiento (altura, diámetro y volumen), supervivencia y rectitud de fuste de 29 procedencias de roble, anidadas en 10 zonas de procedencia representativas de la distribución natural de la especie en Chile. Los datos de la evaluación provienen de un ensayo de procedencias y progenies de 21 años de edad establecido en el predio Pumillahue (18H 691753,9 m E; 5611422,86 m S). Se caracteriza el desempeño general del ensayo y se evalúa el efecto de las procedencias y zonas de procedencia mediante análisis de varianza no paramétrico. Se detectan diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre procedencias para la supervivencia y variables de crecimiento, no así para la rectitud de fuste. El ensayo presenta un desempeño inferior al observado en un ensayo de comparación, no obstante, las procedencias Cuesta Lastarria y Cruces, de la zona 4C, presentan un comportamiento sobresaliente en crecimiento y supervivencia, lo que permite sugerirlas como idóneas y recomendables para su uso en plantaciones. Se constata que la zona de procedencia y la procedencia individual de mejor desempeño son las correspondientes a la zona de establecimiento del ensayo, confirmando los postulados respecto al uso preferente de semilla local en las iniciativas de plantación.

The excellent potential that can be developed in villages rich in agricultural or plantation products is village agrotourism. This is one of the most popular tourist destinations. Agrotourism has the potential to be developed into superior tourism and only needs to be developed into a place for tourists to visit. Agrotourism can also involve multiple landowners and communities.
Apart from strengthening the independent economy, the government hopes that with economic independence managed by BUmdesa, it will become one of the state's income, through taxes. Many do not understand how the tax treatment of BUM DES BUMDes is an entity in the form of a business entity formed from separated village assets as is the case with BUMN and BUMD.
During that time, we know that government programs are not taxed. However, if we understand the explanation of the tax object which can be interpreted as a transaction (usually a source of income) which according to tax regulations is classified as a transaction that must be taxed. Income from a foundation derived from donations and grants is not an object of taxation. BUMDes has operational activities which from these activities can generate profits. Thus, BUMDes has met the requirements as a tax object. Therefore, the tax imposition for BUMDes is corporate tax.
