Un campo disciplinario se caracteriza por la creación de problemas específicos vinculados social, política y culturalmente. Estos problemas son fundamentales para dar forma y dinamismo al campo disciplinar. En términos generales, esto se refleja en la formación de problemas disciplinares. (Se comprende que toda práctica cognitiva, ya sea lingüística, natural, social o cultural, siempre implica la activación de una parte de la realidad, que será analizada e interpretada según las categorías epistemológicas validas en el contexto histórico y cultural). La Lingüística Aplicada es una disciplina dedicada a resolver problemas prácticos relacionados con el lenguaje en diversos contextos sociales y culturales. Este artículo explora y caracteriza la identificación y descripción de diversas corrientes epistemológicas, metodológicas y sociológicas presentes en el ámbito de la Lingüística Aplicada y, en particular, en el marco conceptual que ha impulsado el desarrollo y consolidación de esta disciplina en contextos nacionales productivos y creativos. Aunque existen variaciones regionales e idiosincráticas, es evidente que las Lingüísticas Aplicadas actuales se presentan como prácticas, críticas y socialmente trascendentes. esta manera, los campos de la Lingüística Aplicada cuentan con una base sólida que posibilita el desarrollo conceptual necesario para enfrentar las realidades complejas a las que se dirigen, como el ámbito educativo, clínico y otros ámbitos de la vida social, cultural, política y económica de los individuos y las comunidades.

Incubadora artesanal semiautomática y su impacto al sector avícola en Ecuador
Authors: Vergara Candela Cristhian Alejandro 
Published: October 2024

Esta moderna investigación tiene como objetivo demostrar la eficacia de la incubación mediante la fabricación de una incubadora semiautomática con una capacidad de 24 huevos dado el prototipo, ésta permitirá al productor avícola una mayor puesta de crías, las especies ya bien sean de engorde o reproductoras. Ecuador produce toda la carne de pollo y huevos de mesa que consumen sus habitantes, la Corporación Nacional de Avicultores del Ecuador (CONAVE) refiere que en el 2022 un ecuatoriano consume un promedio aproximado de 230 huevos al año. La incubación natural (puesta del ave) limita al avicultor en la reproducción masiva y genera mayores rubros económicos al momento de tabular valores, demostrando que la incubación artificial es una mejor alternativa. Este prototipo de incubadora presenta un diseño hermético, considerándose semiautomática, compuesta por un sistema de control interno (termostato), permitiendo así el fácil manejo de los factores ambientales internos, siendo estos los principales que se deben operar, logrando así una eclosión exitosa y obtener los resultados esperados. Este diseño permite que los factores externos influyan en menor intensidad, mientras que el volteo de los huevos se realizará de manera manual en un intervalo de tiempo referente a cada 8 horas, evitando así que el embrión quede pegado al cascarón. El equipo usado de manera artesanal tuvo excelentes resultados, es factible implementar una incubadora artificial ya que son eficaces y justifican valores por los componentes a usar en la fabricación de la misma.

Abstract
Stellar X-ray and UV radiation can significantly affect the survival, composition, and long-term evolution of the atmospheres of planets in or near their host star’s habitable zone (HZ). Especially interesting are planetary systems in the solar neighborhood that may host temperate and potentially habitable surface conditions, which may be analyzed by future ground- and space-based direct-imaging surveys for signatures of habitability and life. To advance our understanding of the radiation environment in these systems, we leverage ∼3 Ms of XMM-Newton and Chandra observations in order to measure three fundamental stellar properties at X-ray energies for 57 nearby FGKM stellar systems: the shape of the stellar X-ray spectrum, the luminosity, and the timescales over which the stars vary (e.g., due to flares). These systems possess HZs that will be directly imageable to next-generation telescopes such as the Habitable Worlds Observatory and ground-based Extremely Large Telescopes. We identify 29 stellar systems with L
X/L
bol ratios similar to (or less than) that of the Sun; any potential planets in the HZs of these stars therefore reside in present-day X-ray radiation environments similar to (or less hostile than) modern Earth, though a broader set of these targets could host habitable planets. An additional 19 stellar systems have been observed with the Swift X-ray Telescope; in total, only ∼30% of potential direct imaging target stars has been observed with XMM-Newton, Chandra, or Swift. The data products from this work (X-ray light curves and spectra) are available via a public Zenodo repository (doi:10.5281/zenodo.11490574).
The invention of disability
Authors: Pérez Melania Moscoso 
Published: October 2024

Anthropologist Roy Wagner defined invention as a way to defy the assumption that ordinary life is in most part determined. In this text we explore the notion of disability as an ordinary or conventional one, to contrast it with the notion of vital normativity proposed by Georges Canguilhem in the section II of the Normal and the pathological, which would be close to the notion of invention that Wagner develops. In this second approach the concept of vital normativity expresses the adaptative efforts of the individual, be it with or without disability. While in the former, collectivizing view of disability standardization contributes to the othering of disability, Roy Wagner’s approach of invention if applied to disability, would stress individual creativity. We defend that this differentiating view of disability, just as Canguilhem’s concept of vital normativity, opens new venues for disability emancipation beyond the realm of representation.
COPD Unveiled: Insights from Dwellers along a Busy Highway in Kattankulathur Block
Authors: Pradeep MVM , Logaraj M , Bincy K 
Published: October 2024

Background:
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a serious lung condition that imposes a significant financial burden on individuals and society, straining the medical system. According to the World Health Organization, it was the third leading cause of death worldwide in 2020. In India, it ranks as the second leading cause of death, and in Tamil Nadu, it is the tenth. The Global Burden of Disease study in 2018 found that COPD accounted for 50% of all cases and 69% of disability. Outdoor air pollution plays a major role in India’s burden of chronic respiratory diseases. Early diagnosis and intervention can help to alleviate symptoms, prevent complications, and reduce morbidity and mortality, ultimately improving quality of life.

Objectives:
(1) To estimate the prevalence of COPD among the study population (2) To assess the risk factors associated with COPD among the study population.

Methodology:
A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted among adults along the roadside dwelling of a National Highway. Using a multi-stage random sampling technique 403 elderly was selected. Participants were interviewed by a pre-tested structured questionnaire followed by spirometry (pulmonary function test) evaluation. Data entry was performed in an Excel sheet and analyzed using SPSS. The odds ratio and Chi-square test were performed to determine the association between qualitative variables.

Results:
Among 403 study population 58% were male and 42% were female. The prevalence of COPD was found to be 22%, it was 11.1% among males and 10.9% among females. It is evident that individuals, who had exposure to risk factors such as cigarette smoking 78%, overcrowding 35.8%, lack of cross ventilation 10.9%, and living near a highway within 50 m of distance 36.2% are at more risk for developing COPD.

Conclusion:
Study revealed that people living in closer proximity with roadways increases the risk of COPD.

Published: October 2024

Background:
Maintaining optimal hearing health and preventing ear infections is crucial across all life stages, spanning from before birth and infancy to middle age and beyond. The primary aim of the research was to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of the telemedicine-enabled otoscope (TEO) in diagnosing ear diseases with that of the conventional otoscope.

Materials and Methods:
The databases PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase were thoroughly searched to find original studies on TEO at the community as well as hospital levels along with meta-analysis for comparison with standard diagnostic methods using traditional otoscopes.

Results:
The telemedicine-equipped otoscope displays a sensitivity of 82% (confidence interval 0.78–0.95) and a specificity of 95% (confidence interval 0.93–0.96). When employed by physicians, the combined sensitivity and specificity become 84% (confidence interval 0.79–0.88) and 91% (confidence interval 0.87–0.94), respectively. Community Health Workers (CHWs) using telemedicine-enabled otoscopes exhibit a collective sensitivity of 80% (confidence interval 0.72–0.87) and a collective specificity of 97% (confidence interval 0.95–0.98). Snapping multiple photographs and removal of cerumen where necessary in increasing the quality of the photographs for diagnosis.

Conclusions:
The TEO holds the promise of substantially enhancing the accessibility of audiology services, encompassing evaluation, public outreach, and fundamental care. Its implementation has the potential to fortify primary health care environments, contributing to the prevention of ear diseases and assisting in mitigating the shortage of skilled ear care professionals.
Benign Adult-Type Osteopetrosis with Recurrent Osteomyelitis of the Maxilla—A Rare Case Report
Authors: Aswath Nalini , Bhargavi R. 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
Osteopetrosis, also known as marble bone disease, is a genetic condition characterised by generalised sclerosis of bones. The osteoclastic cells responsible for bone resorption are defective and nonfunctional. These patients tend to have low bone quality in spite of increased bone deposition and thus experience multiple fractures during their life span. The bones are dense with loss of corticomedullary differentiation. A case report of benign adult type of osteopetrosis wherein a 47-year-old man underwent simple dental extraction of maxillary posterior teeth that segued to chronic nonhealing osteomyelitis of the maxilla is presented. Sequestromy of the dead bone further complicated the secondary infection due to nonhealing of the surgical area. The patient was treated with a full course of antibiotics and is under regular follow-up. Since dental extractions can lead to osteomyelitis of jaw bones judicious evaluation and careful treatment planning are advised.

Published: October 2024

Abstract

Objective:
To evaluate the feasibility of the International Caries Classification and Management System (ICCMS) protocol in a hospital-based setting in India.

Methods:
A total of 160 children, 3–6 years old children reporting with dental caries to a hospital-based setting were recruited. Risk-based management of dental caries was conducted and followed for one year as per the modified ICCMS protocol. The feasibility of the ICCMS protocol was evaluated based on treatment outcomes including symptom reduction, patient compliance, and time taken in risk assessment. Qualitative outcomes were assessed using a paired t-test, whereas the Wilcoxon signed-rank test assessed the change in quantitative variables from baseline to one year.

Results:
A one-year follow-up assessment was completed for 139 children. Majority of children (101 = 72.7%) had high caries risk, while (38 = 27.3%) had moderate risk. A significant improvement was observed in terms of reduction in patient symptoms such as reducing the number of active caries, maintaining sound teeth, and maintaining restored teeth (P < 0.05). The time taken for risk assessment was also significantly reduced (mean difference 1.99 ± 3.37 min) at one-year recall.

Conclusion:
The ICCMS protocol for caries management is feasible in terms of systematic symptom reduction in both moderate and high dental caries risk patients.

Published: October 2024

Background:
Premenstrual dysphoric disorder is a mood disorder that has been recognized in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) as a subcategory of depressive disorders. The disorder has a high prevalence rate, and yet no uniform measure is standardized on the Indian population.

Aim:
This study aimed to develop a scale to assess premenstrual dysphoric disorder that can be used for screening and for clinical use and that is standardized on the Indian population.

Methods:
This study used cross-sectional research design and collected data through social media platforms from a sample of 300 females, out of which 38 were excluded for pregnancy, mental health conditions, substance use, and oral contraceptive use.

Results:
The scale was analyzed using SPSS 21.0 for descriptive statistics, internal consistency, and convergent, content (factor analysis), and divergent validity. Results showed a high reliability of 0.90 and a concurrent validity of 0.76 and 0.64 against PSTT and BDI. Factor analysis revealed four factors, namely, affective and cognitive functioning, daily life and occupational functioning, somatic symptoms, and interpersonal anger. The sensitivity and specificity of the scale were found to be 86 (86%) and 66 (66%), respectively.

Conclusion:
The scale developed in this study was found reliable and valid for use on the Indian population. It has high sensitivity and can be used as a screening measure for premenstrual dysphoric disorder.

Published: October 2024

Background:
Disaster mental health is a critical yet neglected aspect in India. Primary care physicians (PCPs) play a crucial role in mitigating mental health challenges following disasters. This study conducted a knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) survey among PCPs in Karnataka to assess their disaster mental health preparedness.

Methods:
A cross-sectional online survey was conducted from February to May 2023 targeting PCPs across 29 districts of Karnataka in a convenient snowball sampling method. The questionnaire review included KAP questions on disaster mental healthcare. A total of 324 PCPs responded.

Results:
Knowledge scores were moderate (mean: 7.05), attitudes were positive (mean: 9.15), and practices were poor (mean: 0.32). Significant correlations were found between clinical experience and knowledge/attitudes/practices (rho 0.358, P < 0.001; rho 0.147, P = 0.007; rho 0.232, P = 0.003).

Conclusion:
There is a large gap between theoretical knowledge and practical preparedness in disaster mental health. Training programs and government initiatives are essential to improve preparedness among PCPs.
