INTRODUCTION:
Whether dye spray chromoendoscopy (DCE) adds value in surveillance colonoscopy with high-definition (HD) scopes remains controversial. This updated meta-analysis compares dysplasia detection using DCE and high-definition white light endoscopy (HD-WLE) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) undergoing surveillance colonoscopy.

METHODS:
A comprehensive search was performed for randomized controlled trials (RCT) comparing HD-WLE and DCE in patients with IBD. The primary outcome was to compare the proportion of patients with at least 1 dysplastic lesion detected by DCE vs HD-WLE. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were pooled using the random-effects model, with I
2 > 60% indicating substantial heterogeneity. The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation approach was used to assess the certainty of evidence (CoE).

RESULTS:
Six RCT involving 978 patients were analyzed (DCE = 479 vs HD-WLE = 499 patients). DCE detected significantly more patients with dysplasia than HD-WLE (18.8% vs 9.4%), OR 1.94 (95% CI 1.21–3.11, I
2 = 28%, P = 0.006, high CoE). This remained significant after excluding 2 RCT published as abstracts. A sensitivity analysis excluding a noninferiority RCT with a single experienced operator eliminated the results' heterogeneity, OR 2.46 (95% CI 1.56–3.90, I
2 = 0%). Although high-grade dysplasia detection was numerically higher in the DCE group (2.8% vs 1.1%), the difference was statistically insignificant, OR 2.21 (95% CI 0.64–7.62, I
2 = 0%, low CoE).

DISCUSSION:
Our updated meta-analysis supports DCE as a superior strategy in overall dysplasia detection in IBD, even with HD scopes. When expertise is available, DCE should be considered for surveillance colonoscopy in patients with high-risk IBD, with the acknowledgment that virtual chromoendoscopy shows equivalence in recent studies. Further multicenter trials with multiple endoscopists with varying expertise levels and longer-term outcome data showing a reduction in cancer or cancer-related death are needed.
Daño ambiental, el daño bien recibido

En un estudio descriptivo-analítico abordaremos los posibles discursos que legitiman la selectividad penal para con pueblos indígenas, frente a la explotación desmedida de recursos naturales en Argentina. A partir de conflictos existentes y hechos de la realidad, buscaremos evidenciar la naturalización del accionar de determinados sujetos, que ejecutan una tendencia extractivista bajo el marco de políticas de promoción industrial impulsadas por diversos actores nacionales y transnacionales, que a su vez se benefician de estas mismas medidas. De esta manera, se producen daños ambientales que no son abordados desde el ámbito penal, mientras que se criminalizan las acciones de comunidades vulnerabilizadas que se enfrentan a estas políticas, generen o no daño alguno.
El marco desde el cual realizaremos nuestro análisis es el de la perspectiva crítica de la criminología verde vinculada a conceptos como extractivismo, delito de maldesarrollo (mal vivir), desarrollo económico e inserción internacional, entre otros. Todo ello será estudiado desde y para el Sur Global, al que pertenecemos como investigadoras y que buscamos reivindicar y visibilizar.
Legislación y acciones afirmativas para la población trans. Un balance a diez años de la ley identidad de género en Argentina
Authors: Dellacasa María Alejandra 
Published: December 2023

Este trabajo describe una serie de normativas y políticas desplegadas por el Estado argentino durante el período 2012-2022 en pos de garantizar los derechos de las personas travestis, trans y no binarias.
En un primer momento introducimos la perspectiva de derechos humanos, considerando que resulta el marco más adecuado para el análisis del tema, luego analizamos algunos conceptos teóricos a los que recurrimos para el análisis, como el reconocimiento social, la igualdad y las acciones afirmativas.
En un segundo momento describimos detalladamente la Ley de Identidad de Género, el decreto presidencial que reconoce la identidad no binaria y la Ley de Promoción de Acceso al Empleo Formal para Personas Travestis, Transexuales y Transgénero “Diana Sacayán-Lohana Berkins”, así como el escenario en que tuvo lugar su implementación en Argentina.
Finalmente realizamos un análisis del impacto que tuvieron algunas de las principales medidas detalladas en el reconocimiento de las personas trans y en el mejoramiento de sus condiciones de vida. Para ello tomamos como insumo investigaciones desarrolladas por organismos públicos y organizaciones de la sociedad civil que permiten dar cuenta del alcance de las políticas.
Sensibilizar la escucha. Reflexiones a cuatro años de su creación
Authors: Villafañe Cristian 
Published: December 2023

El espacio curricular Sensibilizar la escucha comenzó a desarrollarse desde el año 2019 en la Escuela de Música (FHUMyAR–UNR). En el año 2021, fue incluido en la currícula del Instituto Superior de Música (ISM–FHUC–UNL) como materia optativa general. Desde su creación propuso la reflexión sistemática en torno a dos centros de interés: por un lado, a la escucha en tanto acto voluntario y consciente, histórica y socioculturalmente situada. Es decir, buscó, por un lado, indagar en cuáles son las conexiones posibles entre la dimensión sensible del sujeto que escucha y las descripciones paramétricas que este pudiera realizar a partir de su acto de escucha. Por otro lado, indagó en cómo es que se dinamizan y tensionan las escuchas al ser institucionalizadas por trayectos académicos de formación musical específicos en el nivel universitario argentino. A la fecha de presentación de este resumen, Sensibilizar la escucha ha completado nueve ediciones, configurándose cada una de ellas como instancias de gran singularidad.
En este trabajo proponemos reflexionar críticamente en torno a los cuatro años de desarrollo de Sensibilizar la escucha, recuperando las singularidades de cada edición como también los emergentes que fueron configurándose como núcleos temáticos a lo largo de su desarrollo, señalando además cuáles son los desafíos que siguen vigentes hasta este momento. A partir del relevamiento de los registros realizados en cada edición, de entrevistas y encuestas realizadas a quienes han participado del espacio, reflexionaremos en torno a cómo se han abordado desde Sensibilizar la escucha la articulación dimensión sensible–dimensión racional en el acto de escucha; la potencia en el uso de hashtags como posibles facilitadores para la producción de sentido; la consideración de una teoría viva, artísticamente compatible, para la práctica musical; y cómo tensiona la escucha al ponerse en juego en marcos institucionales específicos.

Published: December 2023

Abstract

Objectives
A mass spectrometry (LC‒MS/MS)-based interlaboratory comparison study was performed for nine steroid analytes with five participating laboratories. The sample set contained 40 pooled samples of human serum generated from preanalyzed leftovers. To obtain a well-balanced distribution across reference intervals of each steroid, the leftovers first underwent a targeted mixing step.

Methods
All participants measured a sample set once using their own multianalyte protocols and calibrators. Four participants used in-house developed measurement platforms, including IVD-CE certified calibrators, which were used by three participants; the 5th lab used the whole LC‒MS kit from an IVD manufacturer. All labs reported results for 17-hydroxyprogesterone, androstenedione, cortisol, and testosterone, and four labs reported results for 11-deoxycortisol, corticosterone, cortisone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), and progesterone.

Results
Good or acceptable overall comparability was found in Bland‒Altman and Passing‒Bablok analyses. Mean bias against the overall mean remained less than ±10 % except for DHEAS, androstenedione, and progesterone at one site and for cortisol and corticosterone at two sites (max. −18.9 % for androstenedione). The main analytical problems unraveled by this study included a bias not previously identified in proficiency testing, operator errors, non-supported matrix types and higher inaccuracy and imprecision at lower ends of measuring intervals.

Conclusions
This study shows that intermethod comparison is essential for monitoring the validity of an assay and should serve as an example of how external quality assessment could work in addition to organized proficiency testing schemes.
Modelling of convective drying of potatoes polyhedrons
Authors: Silva Júnior Marco A. V. , Leite Mariani A. , Dacanal Gustavo C. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This work aimed to develop numerical models to predict the moisture content and deformation of potato slices during convective drying (40–80 °C, 0.5 m·s−1). Three-dimensional slices were considered in cylindrical, cubic, parallelepiped, and prism geometries. The first classic model coupled the linear constant drying rate period with the analytical solution of Fick’s law in spherical coordinates, evaluating the mass diffusion coefficients (4.2–15.5·10−10 m2·s−1), critical drying time (1640–5085 s), and critical moisture content (1.8–2.4 kg·kg−1). The Finite Element Method (FEM) was a more robust model, that combined momentum and mass transfer to three-dimensional solid deformation of polyhedrons by ALE method, evaluating the mass diffusivity (1.4–6.5·10−10 m2·s−1). The FEM model could predict the shrinkage due to water molar flux removal on moving solid boundaries and explain the pseudo-constant drying rate detected in experimental data. The developed models accurately described the drying of food materials with a high shrinkage ratio.
Undecorated Roman-Period Roof Tiles – An Old Material Providing New Results
Authors: Hamari Pirjo 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Undecorated ceramic roof tiles and their fragments are one of the most enduring and numerous remains of the earthen architecture of the Roman period to survive to us from many parts of the Roman world, especially from the Mediterranean region. Despite this, we have huge gaps in our knowledge regarding this material due to the sparsity in specialist studies and published excavation or survey records. The most detrimental gap is a lack of sufficiently fine-grained tile typology to easily situate and compare any tile material found. This work will outline the methodology used in the author’s recent research concerning Roman-period ceramic roof tiles in the Eastern Mediterranean and discuss the different ways we can approach undecorated roof tiles as material to gain valuable data. The work will also touch on the current limitation we have for further research in using this material as a dataset based on the status of research (limited and biased), the methodologies that would be most valid for research (e.g. is typology still a valid tool?), and the means we have in increasing the value of this material as a source for knowledge (better documentation). Such research allows us to gain meaningful and interesting new information on style, production, and transfer of knowledge and technology, which ultimately will help us to better understand how past societies functioned and interacted.
Schrödinger’s Rose: Indeterminacy and Contingent Futures in the Plant Variety Rights System of Aotearoa New Zealand
Authors: Jefferson David J. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Plant variety rights, a somewhat obscure and technical form of intellectual property, are often assumed to be conceptually uncomplicated. The two essential purposes of plant variety rights laws are typically to incentivise the creation of novel varieties with useful characteristics and to reward breeders for these efforts. These rationales are seldom questioned. However, plant variety rights regimes might be better understood as open-ended, containing multiple potential futures that are innate though they may never be fully realised. This article reviews a series of Parliamentary debates over the three generations of plant variety rights legislation in Aotearoa New Zealand. The article shows that over time, rather than remain static the perceived rationale for recognising intellectual property for plants in New Zealand has shifted and expanded. Justifications have grown from a narrow focus on supporting a nascent, export-oriented horticultural industry to the endorsement of a broad platform that aims both to promote domestic agricultural innovation and to achieve Indigenous sovereignty over culturally significant plants. The prior indeterminacy that characterises plant variety rights legislation in Aotearoa invokes the metaphor of Schrödinger’s cat, in that these laws’ multiple futures are contingent and may resolve themselves differently depending on whose aspirations are formally recognised and applied in practice. The nature of plant variety rights is therefore spectral, pervaded – both implicitly and sometimes overtly – by the ambitions of different people, as well as by the types of plants and ways of knowing that these laws exclude.
Analysis of Two Different Inks and Application Techniques on Palm Leaf Manuscripts Through Non-Invasive Analysis
Authors: Yu Chen , Zhang Meifang , Song Xin 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Influenced by the spreading route of Buddhism, palm leaf manuscripts in China are mostly distributed in Yunnan province and Tibet. The ink of palm leaf manuscripts from Yunnan province is left in the incisions, while the ink of palm leaf manuscripts from Tibet is written on the surface. The two inks have different compositions and application techniques, which may lead to varying degrees of flaking and ink loss. Application technique and ink composition are crucial for conservation measures. In this study, non-destructive analysis techniques including a portable digital microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) were undertaken to analyse the characteristics and preservation condition of inks applied with different techniques on palm leaf manuscripts. Morphologies indicated that the interaction of ink and support influence the type and extent of ink loss. FTIR and XRF results showed significant differences in ink composition between incised palm leaf manuscripts from Yunnan and surface-written manuscripts from Tibet. Manuscripts from different periods within the same region exhibited similarities in ink composition. This paper significantly contributes to understanding properties of inks, offering an essential reference for ink consolidation.
Exploring non-covalent interactions between caffeine and ascorbic acid: their significance in the physical chemistry of drug efficacy

Published: December 2023

Abstract
Drug–drug interactions occur when two or more molecules interact, potentially altering their effectiveness and cause adverse effect to human health. Caffeine is known to interact with many other drug molecules. Our study was designed to shed insights on characteristics of non-covalent interaction (NCI) and quantify the prevalence of drug–drug interaction between the caffeine and ascorbic acid molecule in gas phase and solvent phase (water) using Density Functional Theory. It was found that caffeine and ascorbic acid molecules interact with one another through hydrogen bonds (HBs) in various ways which can be deduced from the optimized structures and the resulting calculation of binding energy was observed −14.65 kcal/mol and −11.62 kcal/mol in gas and water phase respectively. The Natural Bond Orbital analysis confirmed that the highest stabilization energy interactions are the same interactions which are found to be the possible hydrogen bonds. The RDG, AIM, LED analyses confirmed the delocalisation and localisation of the electron in the complex. The understanding of the non-covalent interaction between caffeine and ascorbic acid may help to further study the drug effectiveness and drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Chen, C-F, Chuang, C-Y, Wang, C-C, Liu, S-A, Chang, H-W, and Chan, K-H. Lower repetition induces similar postactivation performance enhancement to repetition maximum after a single set of heavy-resistance exercise. J Strength Cond Res 38(5): 848–855, 2024—The study was divided into 2 parts to investigate the acute postactivation performance enhancement (PAPE) responses to lower repetitions at the same load of 87% 1 repetition maximum (1RM) in the upper and lower body. In part 1, 14 athletes performed plyometric push-up (PPU) after the conditioning activity (CA) of bench press (BP). In part 2, 13 athletes performed a countermovement jump (CMJ) after the CA of parallel squat (PS). Subjects completed 3, 4, or 5 repetitions (trials CA-3, CA-4, or CA-5) of BP or PS in randomized and counterbalanced order. The velocity of each movement of the trial was recorded. The PPU or CMJ was tested every 2 minutes after the trial up to 12 minutes to assess the Post-Max and optimal individual PAPE time. The mean velocity of the last movement of BP in CA-5 was significantly lower than that in CA-3 (0.23 ± 0.06 vs. 0.28 ± 0.06 m·second−1, p < 0.05), and the velocity of PS in CA-4 or CA-5 was significantly lower than that in CA-3 (0.53 ± 0.07 and 0.50 ± 0.05 vs. 0.57 ± 0.07 m·second−1, p < 0.05). The peak force of PPU and jump height of CMJ at Post-Max in the 3 trials were significantly greater than those at Pre (p < 0.05). There were no significant differences among trials in the optimal individual PAPE times in either part of the study. A single set of 87% 1RM resistance exercises with 3 or 4 repetitions in both the upper body and the lower body induces similar PAPE to repetition maximum.

Published: December 2023

ABSTRACT
The rapid expansion of women's soccer has triggered scientific curiosity to gain a deeper understanding of its game dynamics. To organize scientific findings related to the physical demands of women's soccer during official competitions, contextual factors such as game positions, match periods, type of competition, and match outcomes have been considered. This aims to provide a comprehensive and current overview of physical exertion profiles. This systematic review included PubMed, Scopus, SPORTDiscus, Web of Science, Science Direct, ERIC, and Scielo electronic databases. A total of 1,859 studies were found, of which, after meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 28 articles were selected. The study found high variability in racing thresholds for high speeds, with central midfielders covering more total distance and wingers covering more distance at high intensities. Forwards register more sprints, and physical efforts decrease in the second period of the game. International matches demand more effort, and physical demands in women's soccer are influenced by contextual factors. To design effective training programs, specific profiles for each game position and the type of competition should be considered, and standardization of high intensity and acceleration thresholds is necessary for accurate conclusions.
