The Past and Future of Affirmative Action
Authors: Turner Ronald 
Published: June 2024

Affirmative action has been and continues to be a volatile, complex, and hotly debated issue. In this volume, Ronald Turner provides a comprehensive resource and guide through the maze of preferential treatment doctrine, U.S. Supreme Court decisions relating to affirmative action, and agency regulations and practices. Rather than focus on the moral or constitutional issues involved, Turner seeks to provide an objective analysis of the evolution of the legal concept of affirmative action--to describe what the law has actually meant in practice rather than judge whether affirmative action is either right or wrong, constitutional or unconstitutional. To this end, Turner defines and examines what affirmative action was in the early 1970s when the concept was first enshrined in law and explores how the Supreme Court is now interpreting the concept. He also discusses cases involving set-aside programs and analyzes other federal and state government programs in which constitutional principles and Executive Orders remain untouched by the Supreme Court's recent conservative rulings.
Following an introductory chapter in which he reviews the basic issues involved in the affirmative action debate, Turner discusses the origins and development of the affirmative action concept. He then examines affirmative action in the employment jurisprudence of the U.S. Supreme Court and the application of the Court's rulings by the lower courts in selected cases. The requirements of Executive Order 11246 and its implementing regulations and the impact of the order on federal contractors are detailed in a separate chapter. Turner also offers a brief treatment of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission's affirmative action guidelines. Finally, the author explores the judicial review of minority and women business enterprise programs, with particular emphasis on the Supreme Court's 1989 ruling which invalidated a minority business enterprise statute enacted by the City of Richmond, Virginia. By thoroughly analyzing the record of the courts and legislative and administrative initiatives in affirmative action, this book offers guidelines and information which will be invaluable to all segments of the labor management community involved in and responsible for affirmative action and preferential treatment of minorities and women.

Published: June 2024

This guidebook provides teachers and librarians with methods for collaboratively teaching elementary students to select books they will enjoy and which will further their personal growth and information literacy.
Motivating young students to read is instrumental for the development of strong information literacy and communication skills, as well as for building a lifelong habit of seeking information and enjoyment through written materials. The authors ofPersonalized Reading: It's a Piece of PIEare three highly experienced teachers, one of whom is a school librarian.
This text describes the steps of the PIE program in detail, including chapters on selecting a book, reading it, writing about it, and extending beyond that title. Utilizing the PIE program will teach students to make selections at an appropriate reading level, expand from choosing titles in the same genre or from the same author, and recognize and abandon a book of low interest to them. Within each chapter are explanations of the theories behind each step and practical ideas that teachers and librarians can implement collaboratively in the classroom and library.

Published: June 2024

PurposeWe aimed to compare the diagnostic performance of different cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan modes with and without the application of a metal artifact reduction (MAR) option under 5 different restorative materials.Material and methodsOur research was an in vitro study with 150 caries-free premolars and molars. The teeth were randomly divided into experimental (with artificially induced caries, n = 75) and control (without caries, n = 75) groups and were prepared based on 5 types of restorative materials, including conventional composites (Filtek Z250, Gradia), flow composite, glass ionomer, and amalgam. The teeth were examined under 2 CBCT scan modes (high-resolution [HIRes] and standard) with and without MAR application. Finally, the diagnostic accuracy index values (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC], sensitivity, and specificity) were calculated.ResultsThe AUC of standard scan mode with the MAR option was significantly lower than that of HIRes with MAR (p = 0.018) and without MAR option (p = 0.011) in detecting recurrent caries. Also, without MAR option, the dia­gnostic accuracy (AUC) of the standard mode was significantly lower than that of the HIRes (p = 0.020). Similar findings were observed for sensitivity and specificity. Moreover, diagnostic performance of standard and HIRes scan modes with and without MAR in the amalgam group was lower than that in other restorative material groups.ConclusionsDiagnostic performance of HIRes CBCT mode was higher than that of standard mode for recurrent caries and remained unaffected by MAR application. However, the accuracy in detecting recurrent caries was lower in the amalgam group compared with other restorative material groups.

Why does stratospheric aerosol forcing strongly cool the warm pool?
Authors: Günther Moritz , Schmidt Hauke , Timmreck Claudia , Toohey Matthew 
Published: June 2024

Abstract. Previous research has shown that stratospheric aerosol causes only a small temperature change per unit forcing because they produce stronger cooling in the tropical Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean than in the global mean. The enhanced temperature change in this so-called “warm-pool” region activates strongly negative local and remote feedbacks, which dampen the global mean temperature response. This paper addresses the question of why stratospheric aerosol forcing affects warm-pool temperatures more strongly than CO2 forcing, using idealized MPI-ESM simulations. We show that the aerosol's enhanced effective forcing at the top of the atmosphere (TOA) over the warm pool contributes to the warm-pool-intensified temperature change but is not sufficient to explain the effect. Instead, the pattern of surface effective forcing, which is substantially different from the effective forcing at the TOA, is more closely linked to the temperature pattern. Independent of surface temperature changes, the aerosol heats the tropical stratosphere, accelerating the Brewer–Dobson circulation. The intensified Brewer–Dobson circulation exports additional energy from the tropics to the extratropics, which leads to a particularly strong negative forcing at the tropical surface. These results show how forced circulation changes can affect the climate response by altering the surface forcing pattern. Furthermore, they indicate that the established approach of diagnosing effective forcing at the TOA is useful for global means, but a surface perspective on the forcing must be adopted to understand the evolution of temperature patterns.

O presente caso clínico esclarece complicação do tratamento ortodôntico ocasionada pelo dente canino incluso com diagnóstico clínico de pulpite irreversível sintomática. Para a realização deste trabalho foi efetuada pesquisa bibliográfica desde 1988 até 2024, de artigos, casos clínicos, estudos científicos e clínicos recorrendo a diversas bases de dados eletrônicos como PubMED, Scielo, Lilacs e Google Acadêmico. Considerando o quadro clínico em questão e pesquisando a literatura, constatou-se que a instalação de processo inflamatório em dente incluso é rara durante o tratamento ortodôntico. O exame clínico acompanhado de anamnese minuciosa e utilização de exames complementares, como apenas uma radiografia periapical foi fundamental no estabelecimento do diagnóstico clínico-radiográfico correto obtendo-se com isso plano de tratamento correto o que implica na diminuição de tempo do tratamento, complexidade do quadro clínico e custo. Em se tratando de tracionamento, deve ser muito bem analisado e delineado para que não sobrevenha dificuldades no tratamento ortodôntico. Concluiu-se que a terapêutica adequada do caso providenciou resolução do problema.
Rigor científico y activismo académico. Homenaje a Valentina Glockner
Authors: Gaitán Lourdes 
Published: June 2024

En el mes de diciembre pasado, sucedió el inesperado fallecimiento de Valentina Glockner. La noticia conmocionó a la comunidad de investigadoras e investigadores, estudiantes y personas que la conocían a través de su trabajo como antropóloga de la infancia en su país, México. Y asimismo sucedió en tantos otros lugares de América Latina y del mundo en los que investigó, enseñó y compartió proyectos. Valentina Glockner formó parte del Consejo Asesor de la revista Sociedad e Infancias, donde su más reciente colaboración consistió en la participación en una sesión de debate sobre infancias migrantes, publicada en el número 7(1) de nuestra revista.
La actividad investigadora de Valentina Glockner está recogida en numerosos artículos y capítulos de libros, pero el Consejo Editorial de Sociedad e Infancias ha querido que también en esta revista quede recogida una parte de su legado, a través de las voces y los sentimientos de algunas de sus colegas, amigas y discípulas. Con este motivo se organizó un conversatorio, que tuvo lugar a través de videoconferencia el 12 de febrero de este año, coordinado por Dª Begoña Leyra, en su calidad de miembro del Consejo Editorial, y con la participación de Dª Soledad Álvarez, Dª Elisa Colares, Dª Valeria Llobet, Dª Nara Milanich y Dª Rachel Rosen.

Authors: Díaz Pierattini Natalia , Santander Olave Joaquin , Kim Park Benjamin , Ribao Bravo Jose Antonio , Liu Chen Kevin 
Published: June 2024

Introducción: La Espondilosis es un proceso degenerativo de la columna vertebral que causa dolor, limitación funcional y complicaciones neurológicas, afectando la calidad de vida. Su epidemiología nacional es desconocida.
Objetivo: Se describe la tasa de egreso hospitalario por Espondilosis en Chile entre 2019-2022. Metodología: Estudio observacional descriptivo, a partir de datos del Departamento de Estadísticas e Información en Salud, sobre egresos hospitalarios por Espondilosis en Chile entre el 2019 - 2022. Resultado: Dentro del período de estudio, existe un aumento de 9,97% de la tasa de egreso hospitalario por Espondilosis. A su vez, a mayor edad se registra un aumento en la tasa, siendo el grupo de 65 a 79 años los más afectados. El sexo femenino presenta más egresos que el sexo masculino, pero estos últimos tienen una estadía hospitalaria 1,5 veces mayor. La Espondilosis no especificada es la causa más frecuente de hospitalización (57,3%). Discusión: La tasa de egreso se mantiene estable en el tiempo, con un descenso desde 2020 posiblemente en contexto de la pandemia por COVID-19. Los principales afectados son los mayores de 65 años, compatible con su mayor fragilidad e historia natural de la enfermedad, donde el tratamiento médico ya no suele ser suficiente; y las mujeres, lo que se explica por la mayor tasa de complicaciones y reintervenciones. Conclusión: La Espondilosis en Chile se ha mantenido estable durante el período de estudio, siendo más prevalente en mujeres y adultos mayores.
Developing of a Monte Carlo calculations-based on simulation code for binary collision approximation in amorphous materials
Authors: Abdelkrim Naas , Fethi Lakhdari , Abdelkader Belaidi 
Published: June 2024

In this work, we present a computer code developed and named MCIS (Monte Carlo Collisions In Solids) in his first version allowing the study and determination of the structure properties (arrangement, vacancies, energy losses...) during ion implantation in an amorphous solid matrix. This code is based on both the binary collisions approximation (BCA) theory and statistical Monte Carlo method within C++ Builder environment. The properties of this code can be summarized as: simulate 92 chemical elements of periodic table, the energy of projectile tuned from 1eV to few MeV, variable angle of incidence projectile, it can simulated 4 layers with a maximum of 4 elements per layer, it can use of the electronic losses of energies by choose of Firsov or Robinson approximation, various interactions potentials such as the ZBL, Moliers and C-Kr. Possibility of choose of scattering phenomenon among the Magic Formula and the Rutherford scattering. The results generated by our code are very promising when compared to those given by SRIM (Stopping and Range of Ions in Matter) code along with the advantage that our code takes into account the effect of the interaction potential which is neglected in SRIM.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar desempenho agronômico de população de plantas de cultivares de soja mais cultivadas em Rondônia. O experimento foi realizado no município de Rolim de Moura, Rondônia. O delineamento experimental foi em blocos casualizados com arranjo em esquema de parcelas subdivididas, sendo alocados nas parcelas as cultivares de soja (BMX 75L77RSF IPRO ULTRA, BMX 8473RSF IPRO DESAFIO , BMX 8579RSF IPRO BONUS, BMX 81l81RSF IPRO EXTREMA, MONSOY M 8644 IPRO) e nas subparcelas os stands de plantas (controle recomendado comercialmente para cada cultivar para a região, cinquenta % (- 50%) a menos da recomendada para cada cultivar, trinta % (- 30%) a menos da recomendada para cada cultivar, quinze % (- 15%) a menos da recomendada para cada cultivar, quinze % (+ 15%) a mais da recomendada para cada cultivar, trinta % (+ 30%) a mais da recomendada para cada cultivar, com três repetições. Foram avaliados os seguintes componentes agronômicos: altura de plantas, altura de inserção da primeira vagem, porcentagem de duplas e falhas, número de nós, número de ramos, número de nós, espaçamento entre nós, número de grãos por vagens, índice de área foliar, peso de mil grãos e produtividade. As cultivares Desafio e Extrema apresentam maior número de grãos por vagens. A cultivar Extrema apresentou maior índice de área foliar comparado as outras cultivares. A redução da população aumentou o peso de mil grãos. População de plantas de soja altera a uniformidade de distribuição de plantas de soja. A redução da população das cultivares em 50% do recomendado diminuí a porcentagem de falhas.

Authors: Maldonado-Bernabé G. , Chacalo-Hilu A. , Nava-Bolaños I. , Meza-Paredes RM , Zaragoza-Hernández AY 
Published: June 2024

<p>Urban green spaces play a crucial role in urban sustainability because they provide a variety of environmental and social benefits, which is why every city claiming to be modern, safe, inclusive, and sustainable must ensure that its residents have access to and use these spaces. Mexico City has been upgraded to a city in transition to sustainable development, which is why it has launched various plans and actions focusing on environmental protection. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to compare the AVU area of the two urban centers of the city from 1990 to 2015 using the census of the Geographic Information System (GIS) and the National Institute of Statistics and Geography. Information is used to understand the social situation of each mayor’s office during the study period. The results show that although the social gap has narrowed in this period, there are great differences in area and quality between the two cities. </p>
