Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of sanding treatment on Acacia mangium plywood panel properties. Three layered A. mangium plywood panels were produced from sanded veneer using three different grit sizes: S180, S240 and S320, from medium to ultrafine respectively, with one non-sanded panel as control. Melamine urea formaldehyde resin was unvaryingly used as binder. The outturn of the sanding treatment was observed through a set of evaluations which includes the contact angle test for surface properties, shear strength and static bending for the mechanical properties, and thickness swelling and water absorption rate for the physical properties and dimensional stability. The study shows that almost all of the properties exhibit significant differences at p ≤ 0.05 except for the density and shear test. From the results, the modulus of elasticity of plywood decreases with the increase of grit sizes but shows no significant difference with the control and S240 samples. The S180 samples notably shows an impressive mechanical property with the highest modulus of rupture, albeit the lowest dimensional stability. Nonetheless, the result of this study indicated that the sanding treatment shows a notable increase in the physical, mechanical and dimensional stability of the panel, with the S180 medium grit proving to be adequate and best in improving the plywood panels. As excessive smoothness may negatively affect the wettability itself due to the production of uneven surface and the development of loose fiber that compromises the adherence of the MUF and veneer, the higher grits negatively impacted its treatment on the surface.

Published: October 2022

OBJECTIVE
Young children are at increased risk for influenza-related complications. Safety and immunogenicity of a cell-based quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (QIVc) was compared with a US-licensed vaccine (QIV) in children aged 6 through 47 months.

METHODS
A phase 3, randomized, observer-blind, comparator-controlled, multicenter study was conducted during Northern Hemisphere 2019–2020 influenza season. Children were randomized 2:1 to QIVc or QIV and received 1 or 2 doses of the vaccine, depending upon influenza vaccination history. Safety was assessed for 180 days after last vaccination and sera were collected before and 28 days after last vaccination to measure antibody titers in hemagglutination inhibition and microneutralization assays. Noninferiority criteria were met if the upper bounds of the 2-sided 95% confidence interval (CI) for the geometric mean titer ratio (QIV:QIVc) did not exceed 1.5 and for seroconversion rate difference (QIV–QIVc) did not exceed 10% for the 4 virus strains.

RESULTS
Immunogenicity was evaluated in 1092 QIVc and 575 QIV subjects. Success criteria were met for all vaccine strains. Geometric mean titer ratios (upper bound 95% CI) were A/H1N1, 0.73 (0.84); A/H3N2, 1.04 (1.16); B/Yamagata, 0.73 (0.81); and B/Victoria, 0.88 (0.97). Seroconversion differences (upper bound 95% CI) were −11.46% (−6.42), 3.13% (7.81), −14.87% (−9.98), and −5.96% (−1.44) for A/H1N1, A/H3N2, B/Yamagata, and B/Victoria, respectively. Rates of adverse events were similar between the 2 groups with no serious adverse events related to vaccination.

CONCLUSIONS
QIVc was well-tolerated and immune responses were similar to a US-licensed QIV in children 6 through 47 months of age.

Authors: Minué Carlos Rogelio , Gandullo Ricardo , Troncoso Viviana Úrsula 
Published: October 2022

En el Alto Valle de Río Negro, el riego excesivo y drenaje deficiente ocasionan el ascenso de la capa freática con sales disueltas que, combinados con la textura del suelo, promueven su salinización. Consecuentemente, prosperan halófitos y merman los rendimientos de los cultivos y la calidad de los productos. El objetivo del presente trabajo es analizar la diversidad florística de halófitos en diferentes cultivos y grupos texturales en el área. Se realizaron relevamientos de vegetación sobre parches salinizados en diferentes establecimientos productivos. Para cada taxón se calculó el valor de importancia y se lo clasificó según su origen geográfico, hábito, forma de vida y mecanismo para resistir la salinidad. La comparación florística entre ambientes se realizó mediante los índices ecológicos riqueza, diversidad y equitatividad, y técnicas de agrupamiento jerárquico. El listado florístico presenta 111 taxones infragenéricos. Las familias mejor representadas son Poaceae, Asteraceae y Chenopodiaceae. El 70,27 % de los taxones son pseudohalófitos, el 17,11 % crinohalófitos y el 12,62 % euhalófitos. Los suelos de barda y media barda tienen los índices ecológicos más altos. Los cultivos abandonados y forrajeros presentan los mayores valores de diversidad y equitatividad, mientras que los de vid y abandonados, mayor riqueza específica. Los valores de similitud florística en los grupos texturales son bajos a medios, mientras que, en los cultivos, medios a altos. Se presenta el primer inventario florístico de taxones halófilos en suelos halomórficos cultivados para la región que provee información útil para una gestión adecuada de los establecimientos productivos.
La deontología periodística: praxis, disfunciones y retos desde la perspectiva de los profesionales de la comunicación en la Comunidad de Madrid (2006- 2009)
Authors: Maciá-Barber Carlos , Herrera-Damas Susana 
Published: October 2022

Los resultados de 30 entrevistas en profundidad y 410 encuestas realizadas a periodistas de prensa, radio, televisión, medios digitales y gabinetes de comunicación que ejercen en la Comunidad de Madrid
(España) revelan que sigue persiguiéndose el ideal de la objetividad,
el contraste informativo como camino a la verdad y la exigencia del respeto a los protagonistas de la información. El disenso sobre el tratamiento de los colectivos desfavorecidos, la acusada presión del anunciante sobre los contenidos y la creciente ideologización y poderosa ascendencia de la política en los medios se destacan también por los profesionales como señas de identidad propias de nuestros días. En este contexto, la independencia, la responsabilidad y la ética personales se consideran cardinales para enfrentar a diario los dilemas deontológicos.

Published: October 2022

La presente investigación es fruto de un anterior trabajo teórico
presentado en esta misma revista en 2009, La música en la comunicación publicitaria. Ahora, el estudio avanza presentando los resultados de una investigación sobre 2.346 anuncios televisivos en distintas cadenas nacionales españolas en horario prime-time durante 2009. En España, 9 de cada 10 espots televisivos cuentan con algún tipo de componente musical en su formato final, resultado similar a estudios realizados en distintos países y en distintas épocas. Donde existen sensibles diferencias es en la forma musical utilizada para comunicar el producto así como en los estilos y géneros musicales en los que se basan dichas formas musicales y su relación con el tipo de producto y anunciante.
Jim Jarmusch: Del "insomnio americano" al "insomnio universal" (1980-1991)
Authors: Ródenas Gabri 
Published: October 2022

El presente texto aborda el tránsito del análisis del “insomnio
americano” al estudio del “insomnio universal” dentro del primer período de la filmografía del director norteamericano Jim Jarmusch. El insomnio americano debe ser entendido como la crítica al sueño americano y al American Way of Life tal y como se representó, sobre todo, en el cine hegemónico de los años 80. Jarmusch lleva a cabo dicha crítica tanto en el plano formal como por lo que respecta a los contenidos y a la temática. El objeto de este trabajo es mostrar cómo el insomnio americano se hace extensivo al resto del mundo de manera progresiva y alcanza su máxima expresión fílmica en Noche en la Tierra (Night on Earth, 1991) y coincidiendo con el final del período Reagan.
Online forums, audience participation and modes of political discussion: readers’ comments on the Brazilian presidential election as a case study
Authors: Torres Da Silva Marisa 
Published: October 2022

The Internet has created new “dialogical spaces”1 where issues of common concern can be discussed, serving to democratize the public sphere. However, some scholars express doubts about the quality of the debates that occur in the online environment, pointing out the fragmentation, the incivility or even the anonymity as major problems that may undermine the expansion of the online public sphere.
As a potential deliberative section and a civic forum, readers’ comments in newspapers’ websites constitute a locus for public debate and ideas exchange provided by the mainstream media. As a case study, this article intends to assess the quality of audience participation in online news sites, by analysing the readers’ comments in the news about the Brazilian presidential campaign (September-November 2010) in the online versions of two Portuguese newspapers.
Managing Strategic Communication in Museums. The case of Catalan museums
Authors: Capriotti Paul 
Published: October 2022

Museums are developing a broader commitment to society. Strategic
Communication can decisively contribute to the development of this new mission of museums.
The principal aim of this article is to study the importance given to communication by the museums, and to examine how they manage communication with their publics, analysing those aspects which are linked to the communication planning process of the institutions. The results show that communication has no strategic dimension in the museums, since it is conceived as a short-term tactical tool, and it is not considered as a key resource to engage in dialogue with their publics.
Communication, destination brands and mobile applications
Authors: Fernández-Cavia José , López Marina 
Published: October 2022

Tourist communication and destination branding are professional and
academic fields that are witnessing expansion. Aside from traditional media, destinations also use official websites, social networks and mobile applications for communication. This article examines a sample of Spanish destination applications along with two comparative samples comprised by international destinations and commercial brands.
The results show there is a clear underuse of the resources afforded by mobile applications because, in most cases, they show unspecific content and lack interactive options.

Published: October 2022

The findings of a series of studies in the area of political communication
during the 1990s questioned the answer media malaise offered for what was considered a constant in the academic debate: the negative relationship between media exposure and civic engagement. Some authors blame the media for "narcotizing" citizens, while other analysts say empirical evidence points to the opposite direction. This article approaches empirically the compared Spanish and Brazilian cases. More specifically, the study presents an approach to the impact of media consumption on institutional trust. The results point to different impacts of the media in each country, brought by the peculiarities of their political systems, as well as differences in media consumption behavior
La representación política y el principio de separación de poderes
Authors: Guillén Gabriel 
Published: October 2022

The concept of representation in public law is attracting more and more interest; specially gives many problems in the Parliament how representation, so as a representative institution. In this place is plained a principal problem: the new function of Parliament and the role of parliamentary's Government control. We assist to the end of the dogma of the separation of powers. So we need to distinguish between control by the Parliament and control in the Parliament; the first are less effective because significate the Government control of his own majority; the second is the critical capacity of minorities against the Government; this last are a effective control who's should create public opinion.
This does not imply the suppression of public representation idea. By suggesting a revision of this idea does not mean that they should disappear. It seems wise to conserve the concept of representation providing it refer to the particular situation of the authority and his decision, whenever he appears as a victim of the process in which take part the after side of problem: the souveragnity.
Participación y ciudadanía en tiempos de globalización
Authors: Braga da Cruz Manuel 
Published: October 2022

Social and political participation is a value and an essential dimension of modern democracies. But the decrease of this participation in the most developed contemporary societies affects their civic culture and the foundations of democratic legitimacy.
Citizenship, wich is the basis of modern concept of nation, evolved from the early concept of civil liberty, at the beginning of the 19th century, and from the notion of political equality, at the end of the same century, to the later idea of social solidariety, already in the 20th century. This conception of citizenship has been transleted, from the juridical point of view, into the notion of nationality.
With the advent of post-industrial and post-materialistic societies, and the spreading of globalization, social and cultural identities are reformulated, citizenship becames transnational, and participation becames not only national, but also infra and supra national.
La 'cortesía' como forma de participación social
Authors: Laspalas Javier 
Published: October 2022

The main purpose of this paper is to recover the ancient but neglected concept of politeness, and to show its utility to understand some dimensions and problems of our society.
In the first part of the paper some weaknesses of Rousseau's philosophy, whose ideas —in my opinion— are very influential on the contemporary crisis of courtesy norms, are discussed.
In the second part, taking as a starting point the tradition of gentility, from Greek and Roman philosophy to Enlightenment, it is shown that politeness is an essential dimension of social life, whose nature and features are very similar to language.

Authors: BULUT Hatice , AKSU Hilmiye 
Published: October 2022

Introduction: Mother milk is very important for the health of babies. Donor milk is suggested for babies that for some reason cannot receive their mother's milk. Therefore, mother milk banks are very important institutions both for babies and mothers. The aim of this study is to indicate the knowledge and opinions of premature infant mothers knowledge on human milk banks.
Material and Method: The research was carried out with mothers whose babies are premature and in the newborn intensive care unit. The sample was composed of 230 mothers who agreed to fill in the questionnaire. The data has been gathered by the questionnaire that is composed of 39 questions which were prepared by the researcher. Descriptive statistics and the chi-square test were used for the analysis stage of the research.
Results: It has been determined that 86.1% of the mothers have never heard about milk banks before, 90% did not know about them and, 43.9% of the mothers were indecisive about whether milk banks should be built or not. 41.3% of the mothers stated that they would not donate milk if a milk bank was to be established in our country while 66.5% stated that they would not request milk from milk banks. 48.3% of the mothers stated that they did not know whether milk banks would cause any problems in means of religion. Lastly, it has been noted that 58.3% of the mothers request more information on milk banks. A meaningful statistical ratio has been found between the education level of the mothers and prior knowledge of milk banks, the support for the establishment of milk banks, the need for milk banks, milk donation and milk requests.
Conclusion: Overall, it has been found that the majority of the mothers do not hold sufficient knowledge about milk banks. It is found that the majority is indecisive about establishing milk banks. It can be stated that a positive attitude towards milk banks is parallel with the mother’s education level, it increases as the education level increases. There is a need to resolve the worries of society on milk banks and society should be informed more about it.

Published: October 2022

Aim: Rotavirus and enteric adenovirus are common causes of acute gastroenteritis in children worldwide. With the emergence of COVID-19 pandemic, measures for pandemic management have also affected frequency of other viral agents. The aim of this study was to investigate changing antigen positivity pattern of rotavirus and enteric adenovirus before and during pandemic and to determine its distribution according to age groups, gender and season of admittance.
Material and Method: Test results of 14670 stool samples of pediatric patients with gastroenteritis between January 2019-June 2021 were evaluated retrospectively. Rotavirus and enteric adenovirus antigens were detected by immunochromatography.
Results: The positivity rates of rotavirus and enteric adenovirus antigen were 9.5% and 1.6%, respectively, before pandemic. A statistically significant decrease was detected for positivity rates of both these viruses during pandemic. Rotavirus antigen positivity significantly increased in 0-2 age group during pandemic (72.9%) compared to pre-pandemic period (70.4%) and significantly decreased from 4.1% to 3.5% in age group of 8-14 during pandemic. Distribution of adenovirus antigen positivity according to age groups did not differ significantly. There was no significant association between period and gender in terms of positivity rates. In pre-pandemic winter, rotavirus and adenovirus positivity rates were found to be significantly higher than in other seasons whereas during pandemic, positivity rates significantly increased in spring and summer.
Conclusion: Frequencies of rotavirus and enteric adenovirus have shown a significant decrease during pandemic. Infection control measures have play an important role in reducing incidence of enteric viruses as well as SARS-CoV-2.
Violence Against Healthcare Professionals; Is It A New Pandemic?
Authors: ÇINAROĞLU Osman Sezer , EFGAN Mehmet Göktuğ , PAYZA Umut 
Published: October 2022

Aim: Although violence is a public health problem in the workplace as well as in society, its incidence is increasing. Violence and fear of exposure reduce the quality of the health service provided, which negatively affects the employees, and paves the way for the emergence of new violence. Our aim in this study is to know the frequency, type and demographic data of violence against healthcare professionals that we see almost every day, and to make these events preventable with the precautions to be taken and the cause of these events.
Material and Method: The data in this study includes 359 incidents of violence against healthcare workers from January 2018 to the end of June 2022. The date and time of the white code notifications, the gender, age, duty of the health worker who was exposed, the hospital unit where the incident took place and the type of violence were recorded. These data were grouped and analyzed.
Results: It was observed that the number of physicians exposed to violence constituted the majority with 207 (57.7%). 224 (62.4%) of the attacks were recorded as verbal violence, 31 (8.6%) physical violence, and 104 (29.0%) both verbal and physical violence. There was a statistically significant increase in violence cases after the pandemic in the Emergency Department.
Conclusion: Violence against healthcare professionals has not changed compared to before the pandemic, unlike the number of patients that decreased during the pandemic. This shows us that violence in health is a viral contagious situation like COVID-19. As all infectious diseases can be prevented with early intervention, treatment or preventive methods, social behavior patterns also need early intervention and protective methods without stereotyping.
