The Role of the Constitution in Sweden: Addressing its Patchy Legal Legitimacy and the (Half-Way) Transition from Political to Legal Constitutionalism
Authors: Zamboni Mauro 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
The constitution holds unparalleled importance in a well-established democracy, serving as the foremost legal, political, and social document that molds the life of the entire national community. Beyond structuring the fundamental components of a state, constitutions also articulate the core values guiding both public and private actors. However, upon closer examination of realities, the idealized concept of constitutions reveals a divergence in many contemporary democracies, including Sweden. Despite aspiring to the ideal-typical model, Sweden showcases a divergence in its constitutional landscape. Certain constitutional documents in the Scandinavian country are deemed ‘fully constitutional,’ providing a solid and stable legal foundation acknowledged by both legal and political actors to shape and limit their work. On the contrary, substantial portions of Sweden’s constitutional charters appear less stable, lacking essential support within the legal discourse of the nation. This work aims to present the varying perception and utilization of constitutional charters in Sweden, exploring the factors contributing to their “political” role rather than a purely legal one in the national discourse. Additionally, it highlights recent shifts in these factors, suggesting emerging tendencies that may guide major legal actors in Sweden toward a more inherently ‘legal’ vision of the constitution as a fundamental framework for all legal and political discourse.
DO MARAVILHOSO AO INSÓLITO: CISNE NEGRO COMO ADAPTAÇÃO VELADA DE CONTOS DE FADAS
Authors: Costa Cynthia Beatrice , Sylvestre Fernanda Aquino 
Published: November 2024

A adaptação depende do repertório do receptor para ser apreendida como tal: não há como identificar uma adaptação a menos que se reconheça nela coincidências com obras anteriores. Quando há uma mudança de gênero entre a nova obra e aquelas das quais ela se apropria, o reconhecimento é ainda mais dificultado. Com apoio nas reflexões de Thomas Leitch e Linda Hutcheon, esse fenômeno – aqui chamado de “adaptação velada” – é ilustrado com o filme Cisne negro (2010), de Darren Aronofsky, que se constitui como um amálgama de contos maravilhosos, tal qual classificados por Vladimir Propp. Costurados em uma narrativa psicologicamente tensa, esses contos transmutam-se em insólito. Para examinar essa premissa, é empreendida uma revisão bibliográfica extensiva sobre a qual se baseia a análise do filme. A partir dela, são elencados seis recursos cinematográficos principais que mostram como se configura essa passagem de um gênero a outro, da estrutura narrativa aos temas adaptados para a pós-modernidade.
ENTRE A GRAPHIC NOVEL E O FILME: UM ESTUDO COMPARATIVO DA TRANSMIDIAÇÃO DE CASTELO DE AREIA (2011) PARA TEMPO (2021)
Authors: Machado Garcia Jaimeson , Munari Domingos Ana Cláudia 
Published: November 2024

Roteirizado, dirigido e produzido por M. Night Shyamalan, Tempo (2021) é uma produção cinematográfica que narra o encontro de um grupo de pessoas que, durante uma viagem a um resort, ficam presos em uma armadilha temporal na beira de uma praia, um lugar misterioso onde a passagem do tempo é acelerada em comparação ao nosso relógio. Ao contrário de outros filmes de Shyamalan, como O Sexto Sentido (1999), Fragmentado (2016) e Vidro (2019), Tempo (2021) é um título que se destaca entre sua filmografia por não ser um argumento original, mas uma adaptação da graphic novel Castelo de Areia (2011 [2021]), do roteirista Pierre-Oscar Lévy e do quadrinista Frederik Peeters. Partindo dos estudos da Intermidialidade, o presente artigo busca analisar como foi realizada a transmidiação de um produto de mídia que tem por base imagens estáticas para outro, que se constrói nas imagens em movimento. A partir da análise comparativa das narrativas, também pensamos nessa transmidiação como uma transformação de um tipo de mídia qualificada em outro: de uma narrativa fantástica para uma narrativa de suspense que traz, ainda, alguns elementos de ficção científica.

Inflammation is the immune response to harmful stimuli, such as pathogens, damaged cells, toxic compounds, or irradiation and acts by removing injurious stimuli and initiating the healing process. Inflammation is therefore a defense mechanism that is vital to health. Usually, during acute inflammatory responses, cellular and molecular events and interactions efficiently minimize impending injury or infection. Current herbal medicine has been found effective with minimal or no side effect.Polyherbal extract of plants which contains curcumin, withanolides, withanoferins, linoleic acid are the active constituents responsible for Anti-inflammatory effect. Extraction of the plant material was done to obtain extract and further proceed for physical characterization and phytochemical analysis. TLC was done to confirm the active constituents present in polyherbal with reference to standard. The polyherbal extract was compared with standard to evaluate the anti-inflammatory by in-vitro assessment of Bovine albumin fraction and Protein denaturation assay. The percentage yield of extracts were found to 66.7, 74.2, 63.7.The R value of polyherbal extract was found to be 0.82 which matches with the standard and hence presence of curcumin, withanolides, withanoferins, linoleic acid was confirmed. The dose dependent study and statistical comparison with the help of graph pad prism, version 9.03 by one way ANOVA followed by dunnett’s multiple comparison test has revealed that moderate inhibition (p≤0.05) is observed in albumin and protein denaturation treated with Polyherbal extract when compared with standard Diclofenac sodium and hence the Anti-inflammatory effect of Polyherbal extract is justified.

Authors: Sharafi Sayedeh Elham , Pourgharib Shahi Mohammad Hossein , Vatankhah Venus 
Published: November 2024

Background: COVID-19 has significantly impacted individuals globally, leading to heightened levels of stress and psychological distress. COVID-19 hospitalized patients experience social exclusion, physical pain, and survival anxiety. This study aims to screen recovered COVID-19 patients for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and assess its correlation with psychosocial factors for six months.
Methods: In this descriptive-analytical cohort study, 401 patients aged 18-80 years were hospitalized in hospitals related to Tehran University of Medical Sciences due to COVID-19 from March 1 to May 31, 2021, and were followed for six months. Recovered patients completed electronic PCL-5 and demographic questionnaires to be screened for PTSD and other psychiatric comorbidities. The data were analyzed utilizing multivariate logistic regression models.
Results: Based on the PCL-5, PTSD was diagnosed in 6.4% of the samples. 10.2% of the samples received a subthreshold PTSD diagnosis. 46.2% of the samples with a PTSD diagnosis had a positive past psychiatric history. Results demonstrated that a previous positive psychiatric diagnosis has a statistically significant relationship with PTSD (p<0.05). This research did not reveal any significant association between PTSD symptoms and demographic features.
Conclusion: PTSD and subthreshold PTSD rates in COVID-19 patients after hospital discharge are significant. A positive past psychiatric history was recognized as a contributing factor contributing to the onset of PTSD. COVID-19 survivors should be screened for PTSD during follow-up examinations.

Published: November 2024

Background: Human T-cell Lymphotropic Virus type I (HTLV1) infection has been reported in patients with a variety of skin lesions in some parts of the world, especially in endemic areas. Infective Dermatitis associated with HTLV-1 (IDH) is the prototypic dermatologic manifestation of infection. However, to the best of our knowledge, it has not been reported in Iran as an endemic area yet. It is aimed to investigate the prevalence of HTLV1 infection among patients with common endogenous dermatitis.
Methods: During a cross-sectional study, blood samples of 100 patients with both clinical and pathological diagnoses of common endogenous dermatitis including atopic, seborrheic, and nummular dermatitis who were referred to the Dermatology Clinic of Ghaem and Imam Reza Hospitals, Mashhad, Iran were obtained and evaluated for the presence of anti –HTLV-1 antibody using the ELISA method. The Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) for HTLV-1 was conducted in cases where the anti-HTLV1 antibody was positive. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 16, Chicago, IL, USA.
Results: Among 100 samples, two cases including erythrodermic dermatitis and atopic dermatitis were positive according to the ELISA method (2.0%). The dermatitis in HTLV1-positive patients was erythematous, scaly, with a generalized distribution and a recurrent nature, but did not complete the Infective Dermatitis (ID) criterion.
Conclusion: In Iran as an endemic area, HTLV1-associated dermatitis may be present as recurrent generalized erythematous and scaly rash instead of known typical features of infective dermatitis.

Published: November 2024

Background: Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is considered as the most important skill for physicians. The practice of effective CPR depends on the quality of the CPR training, team work skills and hospital management. Because of complexity and several variables involved, the outcome of CPR may vary in the different times of day and different days of the week.
Methods: This study is a cross sectional and the data were provided from the medical records. All the patients who underwent CPR from July 2021 to Feb 2022 in the Children’s Medical Center Hospital were included. The ward, disease, gender and age, the time of the day and the day of the week in which CPR event happened and the Survival to Discharge from Hospital (SDH), had been registered. We compared The SDH rate of CPRs between different days of the week (working days and weekends) and also different working shifts (morning, afternoon and night) were compared.
Results: The rate of SDH of the patients who underwent CPR was to 21.2%. There wasn’t a significant difference between SDH during working days and weekends and during the morning, afternoon and night shifts.
Conclusion: The SDH rate was lower in the night shifts and during the weekends but the difference wasn’t significant. It is recommended to improve the medical team CPR skills in all shifts specially in the evening and night shifts. Also, an appropriate dissemination of health care staff in working shifts should be done to increase the success rate of CPR procedure.

Published: November 2024

Background: Kidney diseases are prevalencing rapidly and -nutri tional transition has increased the Dietary Acid Load (DAL) of diet and thus exacerbating the metabolic disorders. The goal of the study was to determine the association the DAL of the diet with certain renal function indices in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 90 CKD patients were recruited. The DAL index, including the Potential Renal Acid Load (PRAL), Net Endogenous Acid Production (NEAP), and Net Acid Excretion (NAE) was calculated using data from a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) and adjusted for energy variables. Ultimately, their correlation with anthropometric and biochemical indices, such as Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) and Creatinine (Cre) was estimated.
Results: Median and Interquartile range (IQR) of DAL for participants was 13.9(8.9-20.9), 47.1(39.3-52.12) and 55.8(50.16-61.9) mEq/day for PRAL, NEAP, and NAE, respectively, with a strong correlation (p<0.001) among them. Age (p<0.05), total daily energy intake (p<0.05), percentage of protein and carbohydrates from energy (p<0.05), and GFR (p<0.05) were significantly higher in the third tertile compared to the T1 group of DAL indexes. However, Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) (p<0.05) and Cre (p<0.05) were lower.
After adjustment in the General Linear Model, the Mean difference (MD) of GFR and Cre became nonsignificant. Nevertheless, in the crude model, the MD of GFR and Cre were significant (p<0.05).
Conclusion: By adjusting the effect of confounding variables, DAL indics of CKD patient did not show significant correlation with renal function. Long-term studies involving larger populations and consideration of confounding factors are recommended.

Published: November 2024

Introduction: Chronic kidney disease is a common condition that affects a person's entire life after diagnosis. Self-care using a mobile phone helps to improve the management and ease the disease. This study aims to identify the educational content needed to design a self-care mobile application for chronic kidney disease patients.
Methods: This applied study was conducted using a descriptive method. The tool used was a researcher-made questionnaire, which was validated for reliability and validity. The study population consisted of nephrologists and general surgeons, from which 25 participants were randomly and purposefully selected from the nephrology clinics of Tehran and Kurdistan University of Medical Sciences. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics with SPSS software version 19.
Results: The educational content of the application was organized into three main axes, comprising 28 educational needs: Disease information, including understanding kidney function, stages of disease progression, and early and primary signs and symptoms; medications, encompassing familiarity with prescribed medications, drug interactions, and the importance of accurate and timely medication intake; and lifestyle and personal habits, covering healthy nutrition, weight management, and work-related issues. However, topics such as diagnostic methods, various tests, drug side effects, dietary regimens, nutritional energy tables, and opioid use were not deemed essential.
Conclusion: The educational needs serve as the first step in designing a self-care application for chronic kidney disease education. By defining the technical capabilities and various features of the application, patient awareness and adherence to desirable self-care behaviors will improve.
(Re)Positioning the Swahili Language in Cultural Diplomacy Under the Capacity of African Ubuntu In Tanzania
Authors: Lembuka Meinrad Haule 
Published: November 2024

The article used the documentary analysis method guided by the Ujamaa Intersections Model in (re) positioning the Kiswahili language in cultural diplomacy through the Ubuntu Panorama. Ujamaa is among the core values of African Ubuntu that was integrated into Tanzania’s policy framework in the 1960s under the influence of the Kiswahili language. Kiswahili is among the oldest and major lingua franca in African history, despite being undocumented in Ubuntu capacity it has a direct linkage with African Ubuntu throughout the history of the continent. Tracing back, Ubuntu is an African philosophy from pre-colonial times that guides all the major aspects of the continent including social economic, cultural, and political. Dr. Julius Kambarage Nyerere (Ubuntu Champion 2014) (who preferred to be called Mwalimu meaning a teacher) embraced Ubuntu philosophy through the Kiswahili language as a soft tool to spread Ujamaa into cultural Diplomacy in Africa and beyond. Dr. Nyerere engaged existing Ujamaa intersections in the community to develop, maintain, and promote the Kiswahili language ultimately influencing the international platforms. In the African Ubuntu capacity, a community is made up of various Ujamaa Intersections comprising primary family, extended families, neighborhood, local leadership, ecology, spirituality, and wider attributions, etc. Over time, Kiswahili became a tool for the decolonization, unification of Africa, and related cultural diplomacy. To mention a few, Kiswahili was the first African language in the United Nations and later it secured various positions as a working language in international organizations including EAC, SADC, COMESA, AU, UNESCO, etc. Moreover, Kiswahili entails more than 200 million speakers Worldwide, several countries have established Swahili radio stations including Germany, Japan, the UK, China, and the USA, etc. To date, Kiswahili continues to render opportunities toward transmission, acceptance, inclusion, hospitality, humanism, peace, equality, love, and coexistence of cultural diversity relevant to nurture cultural diplomacy. It represents African Ubuntu in cultural diplomacy with the relevant capacity to speak about Africa's past, present, and sustainable future in international relations.
A Conceptual Model of Collaborative Nurse-Physician Interactions: The Management of Traditional Influences and Personal Tendencies
Authors: Corser William D. 
Published: November 2024

In this article, the phenomena of “collaborative nurse-physician interactions” are analyzed as such encounters may be conceptualized in modern healthcare practice settings. The author observes that many writers have used either nonclinical or incomplete definitions when discussing nurse-physician collaboration, often paying little attention to the research which indicates that members of both groups consistently possess very different perspectives of what usually comprises collaboration.A conceptual model is presented to comprehensively illustrate the salient variables that have been suggested in the professional literature as affecting the quality, rate, and outcomes of the fundamental unit of nurse-physician collaboration: the collaborative interaction. The author asserts that although many of the peculiarities of the traditional nurse-physician relationship are generations old, contemporary patients’ needs and modern practice conditions now mandate further conceptual development and research regarding these work encounters.
Determinants of Health-Promoting Behavior Among Women Ages 65 and Above Living in the Community
Authors: Lucas Judith A. , Orshan Susan A. , Cook Frances 
Published: November 2024

This study utilized Pender’s Health Promotion Model to investigate through canonical correlation analysis the role that select cognitive-perceptual factors (health self-determinism, learned helplessness, self-esteem, and perceived health) and modifying factors (age, race, marital status, education, and income) play in understanding participation of community-living older adult women (age ≥ 65) in the health-promoting behaviors of health responsibility, physical activity, nutrition, spiritual growth, interpersonal relations, and stress management. These were measured by the Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile II in a convenience sample of 107 community-living older adult women (mean age 76.7 years). Gender-specific benefits and barriers to participating in health-promoting behaviors were also explored using open-ended questions.Two significant canonical variates were demonstrated. These indicated that age, marital status, race, education, and self-esteem and the two health-related factors of perceived health and health self-determinism made statistically significant contributions to the health-promoting behaviors of physical activity, nutrition, spiritual growth, and interpersonal relations. Benefits identified included better psychological well-being, coping with the general issues of aging, social interaction, improved function, and management of existing health problems. Internal barriers focused on perceived physical difficulties with all types of health-promoting behaviors; external barriers included aspects of the activity itself, lack of support from others and structural barriers. Study results suggest that older adult women (age ≥ 65) participate in health-promoting behaviors for both health enhancement and health management reasons and that barriers may be a more important determinant of older women’s health-promoting lifestyle behaviors than previously described in the model.
Theory Development in Community Health Nursing: Issues and Recommendations
Authors: Hamilton Patricia A. , Bush Helen A. 
Published: November 2024

Although community health nursing celebrated its centennial in this country in 1986, a lack of conceptual clarity and a relative paucity of theory development persist in this field of nursing. Without conceptual clarity regarding the nature of community health nursing, progress in theory development in the field will encounter significant barriers.Progress can be aided by systematic analysis and critique of a variety of strategies for developing community health nursing theory. This article focuses on the consequences of initiating community health nursing theory development from the points of view of theory, practice, or research. In addition, eight sources of ideas and data relevant to community health nursing are proposed.
Virtue Ethics, Caring, and Nursing
Authors: Brody Jane K. 
Published: November 2024

Virtue ethics is proposed as an alternative method for evaluating nursing practice. Unlike deontological and utilitarian ethical theories, which center on the action and outcome of moral behavior, respectively, virtue ethics focuses on the nature of the agent as the determining factor in analyzing ethical conduct. A historical development of virtue ethics traces its religious roots, its fall from favor by moral philosophers, and the renewed interest in the field.Caring is identified as the central virtue for nursing. Three perspectives on the virtue of caring are presented: virtue as an attribute; virtue as individual actions reflective of the agent’s nature; and virtue as meeting the obligations of role. The implications of each for nursing practice are explored.If nursing is to be considered virtuous, caring must be demonstrated through the care given by nurses. This is a professional commitment toward which nurses must work collectively.
