Authors: Romanyshyn Mykola 
Published: December 2024

IntroductionThe purpose of this study was to determine cut scores to predict independent ambulation for the Simplified Stroke Rehabilitation Assessment of Movement (S-STREAM), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Barthel Index (BI) for Activities of Daily Living for patients with time after stroke up to 1 year. The study’s second goal was to establish statistical dependence between the tests the S-STREAM, BBS, BI, and the Functional Ambulation Category (FAC).MethodsCohort observational retrospective pilot study by design. Twenty-four people who suffered a stroke within the past year were enrolled in the study. The FAC was used to classify patients into independent walking and non-walking groups (scores 0–2 are non-walking patients, scores 4–5 are independent walking patients). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed for the S-STREAM, BBS, BI selected according to the multiple logistic regression analysis with dichotomy on groups independent walking patients and not.ResultsROC analysis of scores at admission were used to determine cut scores for the independent waking ability for each of the listed measures. The cut score for S-STREAM was 19 points, for BBS was 27 points and for BI was 65 points. Based on this analysis it appears there is sufficient evidence to conclude a significant linear relationship between all tests the S-STREAM, BBS, BI, and FAC.ConclusionsIn patients who were ambulators, less than one year post stroke, this pilot study established a cut score for standardized assessment tools S-STREAM, BBS, BI for Activities of Daily Living.

A produção editorial em torno de Saussure no Brasil: dossiês e revistas
Authors: Ciulla Alena 
Published: December 2024

Com o objetivo de traçar um panorama da leitura e recepção da obra de Ferdinand de Saussure no Brasil, realizamos uma exaustiva investigação na web, percorrendo dossiers e revistas, em que coletamos trabalhos sobre a reflexão e/ou sobre a obra de Saussure. Nos dossiers, a busca foi feita pela temática e título e, nas revistas, além da temática e título dos números que tratam especificamente de Saussure, a busca também foi feita por artigos e resenhas, cujos títulos ou palavras-chave remetem a Saussure e que foram publicados de maneira esparsa, em chamadas de temáticas diversas. Esta busca não foi apenas quantitativa, ainda que os números sejam um forte indicativo da presença de Saussure nos estudos e pesquisas brasileiros. Avaliamos também, em cada um dos trabalhos, quais as temáticas saussurianas tratadas e quais os perfis dos trabalhos, partindo da suposição de que se poderiam identificar pelo menos três categorias: os mais voltados a uma didatização, os que contém uma reflexão de pesquisa acadêmica e os que se voltam a um estudo mais filológico. Para completar esse diagnóstico da leitura e recepção de Saussure no que tange às publicações de dossiers e revistas, registramos também os nomes dos periódicos, bem como os anos e locais de publicação. Acreditamos que com os resultados e análise desses dados, podemos contribuir para um inventário daquilo que se produz, divulga e ensina em torno da obra de Saussure no Brasil.
Lêxis en Dionisio Areopagita
Authors: Nieva José María 
Published: December 2024

En su Comentario al Fedón, Damascio plantea que “un destino (lêxis) es la posición en este universo distribuida por la Justicia a cada uno según su dignidad (kat’axían)” (I, 467). Ello aparece de un modo particular en la tercera parte de la obra dedicada especialmente a la interpretación del mito platónico. El propósito del presente trabajo es examinar la recepción de este término neoplatónico en Dionisio Areopagita. Dicho término aparece en el capítulo 7 de la Jerarquía Eclesiástica, donde Dionisio trata del rito funerario y en el cual se encuentran las notas de la escatología dionisiana. Con otras palabras, en el uso que Dionisio hace del término se conjugan una perspectiva metafísica y otra espiritual. La primera se enmarca en la representación del universo dionisiano, en el cual también los ángeles reciben la denominación de léxeis y se distinguen por su incesante movimiento alrededor de la Thearchia; la segunda está presente en el ámbito humano como un llamado a imitar tal condición angélica. En suma, el trabajo presentará un ejemplo de la recepción del neoplatonismo en un pensador considerado neoplatónico, pero del cual muchas veces se soslayan los significativos núcleos que afirman su cristianismo.
tratado De acidia de Alejandro de Hales y su recepción de Aristóteles
Authors: Peretó Rivas Rubén 
Published: December 2024

Alejandro de Hales, maestro franciscano de la Universidad de París en la primera mitad del siglo XIII, no es un autor que haya sido estudiado con demasiada frecuencia en las últimas décadas. Sin embargo, sus obras, entre las que se destaca su voluminosa Summa Theologica, revelan no solamente profundidad especulativa, sino también una inteligente recepción de las fuentes clásicas, patrísticas y medievales. En la Summa, dedica la Inquisitio tertia a tratar las especies de pecados actuales, y es en la cuestión 1 de la segunda sección del tratado cuarto donde incluye un titulus dedicado a la acedia, en el que luego de precisar la definición de este vicio, discute acerca de su condición de pecado. El propósito de esta comunicación es exponer y comentar el concepto de acedia que propone Alejandro, haciendo hincapié en la recepción de algunos conceptos aristotélicos que allí se manifiesta, a través de una aproximación etimológica, una aproximación conceptual y su ubicación en un género determinado. La conclusión permitirá determinar que, para Alejandro como para los Padres del Desierto, la acedia es el desorden de la espiritualidad que impide que el monje o el religioso alcancen la contemplación. En el caso de Evagrio Póntico, el impedimento estará personalizado en un logismos o pensamiento malvado detrás del cual se esconde un demonio; y en el caso de Alejandro, en cambio, será un pecado consistente en una profunda tristeza que lentifica y entumece las fuerzas espirituales.

Abstract: Modern compression ignition engines heavily rely on exhaust gas recirculation to reduce NOx emissions. Despite this, complex and expensive after-treatment systems are still necessary to comply with stringent emission regulations. Conventional diesel combustion operates on a robust and readily controllable mode through which the high-pressure fuel injection and combustion processes are intimately coupled. The heterogeneous nature of direct injection systems is liable to the NOx-soot trade-off inherent to diesel-fueled engines. Dimethyl ether (DME) presents a unique fuel that is reactive, volatile, and oxygenated, offering significant potential to address emission challenges with reduced reliance on aftertreatment systems. In this research, the combustion management of neat DME fuel was investigated using a high-pressure direct injection system. Principally, the suitability of single-shot fuel scheduling as a combustion management technique for DME under low NOx production was explored. The transient high-pressure injection behaviour of DME was characterized with an offline test bench. A single-cylinder research engine platform was employed to study DME combustion characteristics. A wide range of engine conditions was investigated, including injection pressures from 200 bar up to 880 bar and engine loads from 1 bar up to 17 bar indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP). The combustion management of DME as it relates to fuel injection and operating boundary conditions was emphasized throughout the work. To accomplish this, tests were conducted at direct comparison conditions to diesel operation. Most notably, the DME combustion process finished in a shorter period than diesel, albeit with a significantly longer injection duration. At most operating conditions, the soot emissions were below that of upcoming emission regulations without particulate filter exhaust treatment. Even under high engine load operation—17 bar IMEP—of neat DME, the NOx emissions could be readily contained via EGR management to 51 ppm engine-out NOx during which soot reached a maximum of 1.0 FSN. Such operating circumstances of high engine load and low oxygen availability (overall lambda of 1.2) exhibited a deterministic combustion timing control via injection timing while performing with low combustion noise (4.8 bar/°CA) and high burning efficiency (98.5%).

Abstract: Autophagy is an important biological process occurring in eukaryotic cells. There are different forms of autophagy all of which are specialised for their specific roles. The primary role of autophagy is protein degradation, regulating immune responses and maintaining cellular homeostasis. Due to its complexity, autophagy is modulated by many genes and signalling pathways. Autophagy can be induced via different mechanisms, particularly due to oxidative stress and inflammation resulting in lipid peroxidation products and the generation of cytokines. Dysregulation of autophagy modulation pathways can cause different cardiovascular pathologies ranging from atherosclerosis, cardiac hypertrophy, and failure. Targeting autophagy through therapeutic agents has proven to be fruitful in the treatment of diseases. Potential therapies comprising of Rapamycin, an mTOR inhibitor, and Resveratrol, a polyphenol, have both demonstrated efficacy in reversing cardiac hypertrophy through the modulation of autophagy. However, the challenge lies in translating the studies into real therapies which can be used clinically. It is vital to ensure that the effects of Rapamycin and Resveratrol are safe long-term. Perhaps this can be achieved through further understanding autophagy’s complex interaction with other cellular processes. This literature review will explore the different types of autophagy and their role in normal heart physiology. It also aims to study its relation to the heart diseases mentioned above. Lastly, using autophagy as a tool in disease management will also be discussed.

Abstract: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity are chronic diseases associated with high morbidity worldwide, seriously threatening people’s life and health. Tirzepatide, as a novel glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R)/glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor (GIPR) dual-targeted agonist, has been proven to be effective in reducing body weight and controlling blood glucose levels in several clinical studies. Therefore, it has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treating T2D and managing chronic weight in overweight or obese patients, with good therapeutic effects, safety and tolerability. Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), a metabolic syndrome related to T2D and obesity, is considered an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. It can decrease levels of markers associated with MASH and liver fibrosis and even led to the MASH resolution with no fibrosis worsening in treating T2D patients, without increasing the risk of cardiovascular events. The available evidence suggests that it may have potential therapeutic effects on MASH. This review presents a summary of recent preclinical studies and clinical trials on the application of tirzepatide to treat diabetes, obesity, MASH, cardiovascular disease, and kidney disease and reveals the promising prospect of using tirzepatide as a magic bullet in treating metabolic disorders.

Abstract: Conducting polyaniline (PANI) nanotubes with strong broadband optical absorption have been synthesized using single-crystalline MnO2 nanotubes as a solid-state oxidant that can oxidize aniline to induce polymerization in acidic solutions. The smooth surfaces and high crystalline integrity of the MnO2 nanotubes provide the appropriate reactive solid/liquid interface and templating effect to enable the transformation of the MnO2 nanotubes into PANI nanotubes. Such templated chemical transformation can be extended to silica-coated MnO2 nanotubes, allowing the synthesis of silica-coated PANI nanotubes, which are challenging to be synthesized through direct coating silica on PANI nanotubes due to the low wettability between PANI and silica. The versatile chemistry of the outer silica shells opens the possibility of modifying the as-synthesized PANI nanotubes, which usually inconveniently graft other interesting motifs.

Published: December 2024

Photocatalytic hydrogen evolution (PHE) is a sustainable energy technology that directly produces green and renewable hydrogen fuel from water under the drive of solar energy, achieving the conversion from solar energy to hydrogen energy, while the critical mission toward highly efficient PHE is to develop efficient and durable semiconductor catalysts. In this context, the newly-emerged conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) have been considered as prospective candidates for efficient PHE due to their low density, good light absorption, high surface area, permanent microporous, and wide availability of synthesis methods. In particular, their molecular customizability and modifiability enable the effective encoding of desirable light-harvesting moieties and photo-catalytically active units into the conjugated polymer backbone for high-performance PHE. Herein, this review provides a brief summary on the latest advancements based on CMP-derived photocatalysts for PHE. First, the synthesis methods, reaction routes, and photoactive units of CMP photocatalysts are elucidated. Subsequently, the feasible methods regarding how to improve the PHE performance of CMPs by expanding light absorption, improving the separation and transport of photogenerated carriers, and promoting surface reactions are put forward. Finally, potential challenges and future prospects for CMP-derived photocatalysts are also discussed.
