O sentido de Phrónesis e moral filosófica no Fédon
Authors: E Silva Sheila Paulino 
Published: September 2022

Resumo: O Fédon oferece uma perspectiva existencial do filósofo ao narrar a conversa de Sócrates no seu último dia de vida. O diálogo apresenta o filósofo que, resignado à sua condenação, aceita de bom grado a morte. O enredo traz, desse modo, a personificação da postura intelectual do filósofo, o qual se pauta no exercício filosófico para adquirir as excelências morais e intelectuais. A narrativa da preparação do filósofo para a morte, preparação dita sinônima do filosofar, apresenta as etapas do desenvolvimento intelectual e, do mesmo modo, as teses que fundamentam e explicam, em certa medida, a moral filosófica. A conduta intelectualista do filósofo, ao mesmo tempo em que o condiciona moralmente também o permite especular sobre a imortalidade e crer, com base na razão, que ao final terá garantido um bom destino após a morte (Fed. 107c1-5). A reforma moral está inextricavelmente, assim, ligada ao desenvolvimento intelectual. O desenvolvimento intelectual está igualmente enredado a uma moral que tem em vista o Bem e a imortalidade. Cabe investigar a realização dessa reforma moral efetuada pelo exercício filosófico e a concepção de pensamento dado no argumento sobre a purificação. Palavras-chave: Pensamento. Phrónesis. Filósofo. Purificação. Morte. Vida. Abstract: Phaedo offers an existential perspective from the philosopher when it narrates Socrates’ conversation on his last day of life. The dialog presents the philosopher who gladly accepts the death, resigned to his condemnation. The plot brings, thus, the personification of the philosopher’s intellectual posture, which is guided by the philosophical exercise to acquire the morals and intellectuals excellences. The narrative of the philosopher’s preparation to death, said as a synonym of philosophize, presents the stages of the intellectual development and, likewise, the arguments that justify and explain, to some extent, philosophical moral. While the intellectual behavior of the philosopher puts him in a morally condition, it also allows him to speculate on immortality and believe, based on reason, that in the end he will have guaranteed a good destination after death (Phaed. 107c1-5). The moral modification is inextricably thus connected to intellectual development. The intellectual development is equally linked to a morality that is intended to the Good and to immortality. It is important to investigate the performance of this moral modification made by the philosophical exercise and the conception of thought given in the argument about purification. Keywords: Thought.

Já não mais “a coisa mais importante dentre as menos importantes”: A presença do futebol como provocação intelectual
Authors: Gumbrecht Hans Ulrich 
Published: September 2022

Para a Copa do Mundo de Futebol de 1974, a seleção alemã — que, a propósito, sendo a favorita e jogando em casa, venceu sem qualquer brilho — gravou, pela primeira vez, uma canção cantada em coro, cujos título (“Futebol é a nossa vida”) e verso mais famoso (“Futebol Soberano rege o mundo”)nos fazem hoje recordar o statussocial de que gozava o esporte em torno de meio século atrás. Naturalmente, a intenção da letra era ser “bem-humorada”, para ser ouvida, cantada e embalada com um sorriso inebriado, pois não havia ninguém que levasse a sério que o Futebol Soberano (e não a política ou a economia) realmente pudesse reger o mundo.
Ontologia e instituições na teoria política de Hannah Arendt
Authors: Nascimento Paulo 
Published: September 2022

Resumo: Este artigo aborda as duas compreensões que Hannah Arendt desenvolve sobre a política. Ele discute a concepção ontológica de Arendt, elaborada a partir da filosofia de Heidegger, que vê a ação política como um “estar-no-mundo”. Esta compreensão da política também é baseada na interpretação de Arendt dos heróis homéricos e sua luta por destacar-se no espaço público através de feitos e palavras. O texto também destaca a outra compreensão que Arendt tem sobre a política, baseada na construção de instituições. Nesta segunda compreensão da política, Arendt a entende como uma atividade voltada para a fundação de corpos políticos e suas leis e instituições. O artigo conclui discutindo a tensão existente nestas duas visões de Arendt sobre a política e a ação política.Palavras-chave: ontologia, instituições, ação política. Abstract: This article focuses on Arendt's two-folded approach towards politics. It discusses her ontological conception of political action as a “being-in-the-world”, which she developed from Heidegger's philosophy. This approach is also based on Arendt's interpretation of Homer's heroes and their agonistic drive to appear in the public realm through deeds and words. The text also highlights Arendt’s other approach to politics, which is based on institution building. In this second understanding of politics, Arendt views political action as an activity aiming at the foundation of political bodies and their laws and institutions. The article concludes by discussing the existing tension between Arendt’s two views of politics and political action.Keywords: ontology, institutions, political action.

Authors: NOROUZİ Nima , ATAEİ Elham 
Published: September 2022

In this article, the existing international laws in the field of transboundary waters, as well as water treaties and the approaches used to resolve disputes, have been reviewed and analyzed by using international documents and information.
As international convention’s provisions, every state in the common river basin has the right to have fair and reasonable exploitation of the water flow of the transboundary watershed in its territory, with the obligation not to cause damage to other countries. This right is determined by considering the natural factors of the watershed, existing and potential uses, social and economic needs of the countries of the basin, and the effects of exploitation on other countries. But the factors presented for this purpose are general and have different technical and legal interpretations.

But in immunocompromised patients without Periodontitis was (4.7280 ± 3.46401 Pg/ml). While in control group (Diabetic Mellitus Poor Oral Sanitation) was (49.294 ± 22.42156 Pg/ml). Conclusion: The infection rate of the E.gingivalis parasite in the control group (Diabetic Mellitus Poor Oral Sanitation) was twice higher than that of the immunocompromised patients with peridontitis and without peridontitis.
Antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of colistin resistance Klebsiella pneumoniae from clinical Isolates
Authors: Gautam Praveen Kumar , Tomar Shama 
Published: September 2022

Background: There is very little information available in India about the prevalence of colistin-resistant Klebsiella pneumonia in patients and their susceptibility pattern. The increased use of colistin to treat infections are caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria has resulted in an increase of colistin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae in numerous countries. Materials and Methods: These isolates were collected from distinct clinical specimens and analyzed using the broth micro-dilution technique to establish their colistin minimal inhibitory concentration (mic). Result: Of 116 Klebsiella species, Klebsiella pneumonia was 96.55% while Klebsiella oxytoca was 3.45%. Among isolates, 09 (7.76%) were colistin resistant Klebsiella pneumonia by broth-micro dilution. In total, 09 case-patients were identified, 62.93% males and 37.07% females. The mean±SD of the age was 45.93±18.15. Carbapenem, Piperacillin-tazobactam and tigecycline were the most effective drug used for combine therapy to colistin resistance gram negative infections. Conclusion: This is the first study to look at the incidence of colistin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in individuals in Jaipur. Infection caused by Klebsiella pneumonia highly resistant to many drugs. However, various colistin-based combined strategies have indeed been proven to be effective in curing these problems. To minimise colistin use and avoid misuse, a comprehensive antibiotic stewardship policy must be implemented.

Published: September 2022

Introduction: Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) is the standard treatment for male late-onset hypogonadism. Short-acting and long-acting testosterone are currently available treatments and have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The administration of exogenous testosterone is known to increase sperm production and T levels in men suffering from late-onset hypogonadism. However, limited research compares the efficacy of these two types of TRT. Objective: This study aims to compare the efficacy of short-acting and long-acting testosterone replacement therapy on sperm production and T levels in men suffering from late-onset hypogonadism. Methods: We searched for electronic databases including PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science, Allied and Complementary Medicine Database (AMED), and Google using keywords. All studies were evaluated by three independent reviewers who resolved differences by consensus. Results: We identified 21 studies that met our inclusion criteria. After applying the inclusion criteria, only 21 database sources remain for further analysis. Conclusion: Long-acting formulas affect blood more. RCTs show TU boosts libido and testosterone. Male infertility may result from long-acting TU blocking LH and FSH. TRP improves erections by increasing motile sperm and libido. Peanut allergy-related short-acting TRT causes nausea, itching, and injection-site pain.

Authors: Mella Jorge 
Published: September 2022

Microlophus quadrivittatus es una de las cinco especies de lagartos corredores reconocidas actualmente para el género Microlophus en Chile y, junto con M. atacamensis, son las únicas especies de lagartos corredores exclusivos de ambientes costeros. En cuanto al patrón de uso de hábitat de M. quadrivittatus, y en vista de la carencia de antecedentes cuantitativos, el objetivo de este estudio es analizar, en la costa de Iquique: a) el uso y preferencias de microhábitat, considerando tres variables: el tipo de sustrato, la altura de percha y el tamaño de rocas, y b) si el uso de estas variables experimentan cambios debido a diferencias sexuales, ontogenéticas, estacionales y ambientales. Este estudio se realizó en la costa de Iquique, en la Región de Tarapacá, con muestreos mensuales, entre julio de 2008 a febrero de 2012, en seis sectores costeros. Se evaluó la disponibilidad y uso por parte de M. quadrivittatus de tipo de sustrato, altura de percha y tamaño de rocas. Para el tipo de sustrato, los machos territoriales, adultos y subadultos prefieren rocas, independiente de la estación y del sector, mientras que los juveniles varían su preferencia por rocas, bolones y arena, dependiendo de la estación y sector. En el caso de altura de percha, los machos territoriales y adultos prefieren alturas mayores a 40 cm, independiente de la estación y sector, y los juveniles presentan mayor flexibilidad en el uso de alturas de percha, concentrándose entre 0 a 60 cm, con variaciones estacionales y espaciales, mientras que los subadultos prefieren alturas intermedias. En cuanto al tamaño de rocas, los juveniles muestran preferencia por rocas entre 40 a 60 cm, pero hay desplazamiento hacia rocas de menor tamaño cuando hay mayor cantidad de adultos, los que prefieren rocas grandes, mayores a 80 cm. Se discuten los resultados y se analizan en base al uso del nicho espacial tridimensional (cuyos ejes son: sustrato, altura de percha y tamaño de rocas).

India’s Nuclear Security Vulnerabilities and Commitments : Considering Cyber Threats and Nuclear Material Trafficking
Authors: Zahoor Ahmad Mir  , Adil Bashir Parry  
Published: September 2022

Nuclear security refers to the prevention and detection of illegal or purposeful unauthorised acts with nuclear material, other radioactive material, associated facilities, or associated activities, as well as the reaction to such criminal or intentional acts. The nuclear domain is constantly confronted with the problems posed by existing and developing dangers related to nuclear security. After the September 11 terrorist attacks in the United States, public perceptions of nuclear security concerns grew significantly. The advancement of technology has increased the number of security breaches. This is evidenced by the increasing number of cyberattacks on nuclear power plants. After this point in time, the global nuclear community has channelled its efforts toward the establishment and strengthening of global institutions and norms, as well as international regimes, in order to establish and/or maintain robust and protective mechanisms in the domain of nuclear security. Ultimately, the individual sovereign nation has the burden of responsibility for nuclear security, with India being one such responsible nuclear actor. There are a variety of reasons why nuclear security is crucial for India. Due to its extensive nuclear programme and the dispersion of its atomic energy installations around the country, India has a huge vulnerability. Additionally, given India’s unfriendly immediate neighbours, the country is particularly vulnerable to nuclear terrorism, cyberattacks, and other new threats. The study examines India’s nuclear security initiatives, the dangers they confront, and the possible means to counter the threats.

Authors: Abd Wahab Alia Farahin , Md Noor Khairunnisa Diyana 
Published: September 2022

The art song is a genre performed mainly by piano and voice. This paper is about the process and the inspirational factor of creating art songs based on the Malaysian urban soundscape. The composer talks about the understanding of the sound and the process of recording certain inspirational sounds, transcribing them, and creating them into a motive. The soundscape chosen by the composer is also a contributing factor to the whole structure and meaning of the song. These motives that have been interpreted based on the recordings are then expanded and made into an art song. There are a few important features that triggered the interest of the composer upon choosing a certain sound as the main inspiration. Besides that, the paper also analyzes how these sounds affected the composer’s understanding of music and its surrounding. In order to write art songs inspired by the urban soundscape in Malaysia, there will be recording sounds of the surroundings and events that the composer feel is appropriate. The composer also includes the interpretation of sound from certain buildings or atmosphere. From these recordings or interpretations, notes are taken out to create a new motive or a short melody from it. The paper includes the process of creating the motives from the recording into a song.
