Authors: Falconi Valencia María Cristina , Falconi Valencia Stefania Carolina 
Published: November 2023

Introducción. La epiglotitis es una inflamación aguda de la epiglotis que aumenta el riesgo de obstrucción de las vías respiratorias, siendo potencialmente una emergencia médica. La infección por Haemophilus influenzae tipo B es la causa principal, aunque su incidencia y mortalidad han disminuido gracias a la vacunación. Objetivo. Abordar de manera integral la epiglotitis aguda en pacientes pediátricos, analizando en detalle su diagnóstico clínico, de laboratorio y de imagen, junto con un enfoque en el diagnóstico diferencial. Además, se explorarán estrategias de tratamiento y prevención para una comprensión completa y actualizada. Método. Se llevó a cabo una revisión narrativa de la literatura, incluyendo artículos, libros y tesis publicados en los últimos seis años, y que abordaran los temas de interés. Se excluyeron documentos en idiomas distintos al inglés y español. Resultados. De los 65 documentos hallados, se seleccionaron 30 que cumplían con los criterios de selección. Discusión. El diagnóstico de la epiglotitis se basa principalmente en evaluación clínica, presentando manifestaciones variables según la etiología, tales como fiebre alta, mal estado general, tos no perruna mínima y estridor inspiratorio. Un diagnóstico preciso requiere la visualización directa de la epiglotis, que debe presentar características como tamaño aumentado, inflamación, rigidez y coloración rojo cereza. El tratamiento puede variar según la causa subyacente, siendo la vacunación la principal medida preventiva. Conclusiones. La comprensión de signos y síntomas, el uso adecuado de pruebas complementarias y la prevención son elementos cruciales para el tratamiento oportuno de la epiglotitis en pediatría.
Examining the Relationship between Corporate Social Responsibility Practices and Firm Reputation in the Financial Services Sector in Brazil
Authors: Miguel Leandro 
Published: November 2023

Purpose: The aim of the study was to Examine the Relationship between Corporate Social Responsibility Practices and Firm Reputation in the Financial Services Sector in Brazil
Methodology: The study adopted a desktop methodology. Desk research refers to secondary data or that which can be collected without fieldwork. Desk research is basically involved in collecting data from existing resources hence it is often considered a low cost technique as compared to field research, as the main cost is involved in executive’s time, telephone charges and directories. Thus, the study relied on already published studies, reports and statistics. This secondary data was easily accessed through the online journals and library
Findings: The study examining the relationship between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) practices and firm reputation in the financial services sector in Brazil found a strong positive correlation between the two variables. Financial firms that actively engaged in CSR initiatives were observed to have significantly enhanced their reputation among stakeholders, including customers, investors, and the public. This positive reputation was attributed to the perception of ethical and socially responsible behavior, ultimately leading to increased trust and loyalty from clients and improved financial performance for the firms involved in CSR activities.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The stakeholder theory, legitimacy theory and legitimacy theory may be used to anchor future studies on the examining the relationship between corporate social responsibility practices and firm reputation in the financial services sector in Brazil. Regular, detailed, and standardized reporting on CSR initiatives can improve stakeholder trust and help investors make informed decisions. Collaborate with regulators and industry associations to establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for CSR practices in the financial services sector.

Modelling flood frequency and magnitude in a glacially conditioned, heterogeneous landscape: testing the importance of land cover and land use
Authors: Tetford Pamela E. , Desloges Joseph R. 
Published: November 2023

Abstract. A reliable flood frequency analysis (FFA) requires selection of an appropriate statistical distribution to model historical streamflow data and, where streamflow data are not available (ungauged sites), a regression-based regional flood frequency analysis (RFFA) often correlates well with downstream channel discharge to drainage area relations. However, the predictive strength of the accepted RFFA relies on an assumption of homogeneous watershed conditions. For glacially conditioned fluvial systems, inherited glacial landforms, sediments, and variable land use can alter flow paths and modify flow regimes. This study compares a multivariate RFFA that considers 28 explanatory variables to characterize variable watershed conditions (i.e., surficial geology, climate, topography, and land use) to an accepted power-law relationship between discharge and drainage area. Archived gauge data from southern Ontario, Canada, are used to test these ideas. Mathematical goodness-of-fit criteria best estimate flood discharge for a broad range of flood recurrence intervals, i.e., 1.25, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 years. The log-normal, Gumbel, log-Pearson type III, and generalized extreme value distributions are found most appropriate in 42.5 %, 31.9 %, 21.7 %, and 3.9 % of cases, respectively, suggesting that systematic model selection criteria are required for FFA in heterogeneous landscapes. Multivariate regression of estimated flood quantiles with backward elimination of explanatory variables using principal component and discriminant analyses reveal that precipitation provides a greater predictive relationship for more frequent flood events, whereas surficial geology demonstrates more predictive ability for high-magnitude, less-frequent flood events. In this study, all seven flood quantiles identify a statistically significant two-predictor model that incorporates upstream drainage area and the percentage of naturalized landscape with 5 % improvement in predictive power over the commonly used single-variable drainage area model (p<2.2×10-16). Leave-one-out model testing and an analysis of variance (ANOVA) further support the parsimonious two-predictor model when estimating flood discharge in this low-relief landscape with pronounced glacial legacy effects and heterogeneous land use.
Prediction of natural dry-snow avalanche activity using physics-based snowpack simulations

Published: November 2023

Abstract. Predicting the timing and size of natural snow avalanches is crucial for local and regional decision makers but remains one of the major challenges in avalanche forecasting. So far, forecasts are generally made by human experts interpreting a variety of data and drawing on their knowledge and experience. Using avalanche data from the Swiss Alps and one-dimensional physics-based snowpack simulations for virtual slopes, we developed a model predicting the probability of dry-snow avalanches occurring in the region surrounding automated weather stations based on the output of a recently developed instability model. This new avalanche day predictor was compared with benchmark models related to the amount of new snow. Evaluation on an independent data set demonstrated the importance of snow stratigraphy for natural avalanche release, as the avalanche day predictor outperformed the benchmark model based on the 3 d sum of new snow height (F1 scores: 0.71 and 0.65, respectively). The averaged predictions of both models resulted in the best performance (F1 score: 0.75). In a second step, we derived functions describing the probability for certain avalanche size classes. Using the 24 h new snow height as proxy of avalanche failure depth yielded the best estimator of typical (median) observed avalanche size, while the depth of the deepest weak layer, detected using the instability model, provided the better indicator regarding the largest observed avalanche size. Validation of the avalanche size estimator on an independent data set of avalanche observations confirmed these findings. Furthermore, comparing the predictions of the avalanche day predictors and avalanche size estimators with a 21-year data set of re-analysed regional avalanche danger levels showed increasing probabilities for natural avalanches and increasing avalanche size with increasing danger level. We conclude that these models may be valuable tools to support forecasting the occurrence of natural dry-snow avalanches.

A Cross-Boundary Dialogue in Need: Racial, Ethnic, or Folk Groups?
Authors: Zhang Juwen , Addison Wanda G. , Magat Margaret , Miyake Mark Y. , Summerville Raymond , Buccitelli Anthony Bak 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
As we enter the twenty-first century, reflexive approaches to the history of folklore studies around the world, along with the antiracist and decolonizing efforts in academic studies in general, have led to a series of paradigmatic shifts away from the Eurocentric systems of defining genre, folk, racial group, and identity. What remains to be essential, yet to be fully subverted, is the concept and practice of “racial/ethnic groups” that is still used by folklorists in studying folklores in cultural groups. Continuously drawing the boundaries through the concept of “race” is nothing but reinforcing the existing racist system. Unless we build dialogues across the existing “racial” boundaries and seek new common terms and concepts, we are not able to make progress in understanding and accepting the nature and reality of our hybridized folklore traditions that inform the folk groups that we are in, as well as our own personal identities. It is with this premise that the authors contributing to this piece initiate this cross-boundary dialogue, expecting to inspire more people to join in.
Playing with Fire (and Other Natural Disasters): The Sounds of Climate Change in Sid Meier's Civilization VI: Gathering Storm
Authors: Cook Karen M. 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The Gathering Storm expansion to Sid Meier's Civilization VI introduces climate change as a game mechanic. However, this issue plays a miniscule role in the game's sound world, symbolizing its continued invisibility in the real world while also creating potential space for players to ponder individual and collective climate action.
Teaching Talent: Beginning and/as Method in Two American Violin Studios
Authors: Wright Lindsay 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
This article closely examines two violinists’ first notes—two beginnings animated by contrasting American conceptions of music and musicality. Each beginning occurs in a lesson: one follows Japanese pedagogue Shinichi Suzuki's assertion that music is like language, universally accessible and collectively enjoyed; another exemplifies a more “traditional” approach embracing individuality and differing aptitudes. Through a detailed ethnographic analysis of the events before, during, and after these first notes, this project (1) theorizes musical “beginning,” (2) demonstrates the benefits of video-based microethnography for ethnomusicology, and (3) argues that conceptions of “talent” profoundly influence musicians’ achievements, even and especially in the beginning.
Ethical Veganism as Quiet Resistance
Authors: Williams Nancy M. 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In this article, I will argue that ethical veganism can be understood as a form of quietism, as a quiet retreat from a world burdened by human moral failings and animal suffering. I will also show how this retreat, although quiet in nature, is both a legitimate and valuable form of genuine resistance to animal oppression. Positing ethical veganism as a form of sociopolitical resistance to animal exploitation is not new, but thinking of it as a quietist retreat and a legitimate and valuable form of quiet resistance is a different matter.

On Transliterating the Book of Odes
Authors: Sampson Geoffrey 
Published: November 2023

The Chinese Book of Odes (詩經), a poetry anthology that is possibly the earliest literary monument in any still-living language, used phonetic effects such as rhyme, metre, and alliteration to achieve its poetic artistry. However, these effects have been largely obliterated by changes in the sounds of Chinese over almost three millennia, and the non-alphabetic nature of Chinese script has concealed the fact that the effects once existed. The author discusses some of the issues that arise in compiling an edition of the Odes that uses transliteration of the original pronunciation, as reconstructed by recent historical linguistics, to restore their “speech music”, as well as issues in producing new English versions of the poetry which come as close as possible to show present-day readers what the poems were for their first readers.
