Authors: Leyva-Moral Juan M. , Aguayo-González Mariela , San Rafael-Gutiérrez Sabiniana , Gómez-Ibáñez Rebeca 
Published: May 2022

Abstract

Objectives
To assess health sciences students’ satisfaction with narrative photography with an expert patient as an empathy-fostering teaching method.

Methods
Nineteen students from a public medical sciences university in Barcelona (Spain) voluntarily completed six online training sessions using narrative photography and expert patient. Data were collected using an anonymous online satisfaction questionnaire verified by experts, including 29 quantitative and qualitative questions that were analyzed descriptively.

Results
Eighteen valid questionnaires were obtained (90% response rate). All students evaluated the teaching method as highly satisfactory. The main positive aspects of the teaching method were being able to express one’s emotions and reflections. Students felt the activity enhanced their empathy and helped them minimize their prejudices, specifically to patients living with HIV. Students also evaluated the online format as less optimal than if it were delivered in person.

Conclusion
The students found the teaching method to have a personal and professional impact, which facilitated the integration of empathy in their daily practice when caring for people living with HIV.

Abstract

Objectives
Lockdown during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic generated uncertainty regarding its effects on the control of type 1 diabetes (DM1). Our study aims to evaluate the influence of the pandemic on the control of paediatric patients with DM1.

Methods
Longitudinal, retrospective, observational study in patients with DM1 attended between 15/10/2019 and 15/03/2020. Data were collected at that visit and at the three subsequent visits. The second was remote in 50% of cases. The variables analysed were: type of insulin therapy, time in range (TIR), time in hypoglycaemia (THypo), time in hyperglycaemia (THyper), coefficient of variation (CV), glycosylated haemoglobin, insulin requirements and anthropometric data.

Results
157 patients were recruited. At the post-lockdown visit, the TIR increased and the THyper decreased with respect to the first (p<0.00) and second (p<0.00) visits. Patients treated with subcutaneous infusion showed a higher TIR at the third visit (p=0.03) and lower insulin requirements at the fourth visit (p=0.03) compared to patients treated with multiple doses. Patients with a remote visit presented a higher TIR (p<0.00), a lower THyper (p=0.00) and lower insulin requirements (p=0.01) at the next visit. Patients aged less than 6 years presented a lower glycosylated haemoglobin (p=0.01) and insulin requirements at the third (p=0.03) and fourth (p=0.01) visits, and a lower increase in body mass index (p=0.03) over the year.

Conclusions
Metabolic control improved at the post-lockdown visit. Patients treated with subcutaneous infusion, those who had a remote visit during strict lockdown and those aged less than 6 years had a better evolution.
Prospective risk of stillbirth according to fetal size at term
Authors: Agarwal Umber , Hugh Oliver , Gardosi Jason 
Published: May 2022

Abstract

Objectives
Fetal growth and size are associated with stillbirth risk. We wanted to investigate the week by week predictive value of fetal size at term on the prospective risk of stillbirth.

Methods
Anonymised database from the UK GAP program, with 2,094,702 term (≥37 weeks) deliveries including 4,670 stillbirths. Prospective stillbirth risk was defined as fetal death in the current week divided by total undelivered pregnancies. The data were analysed in five centile bands for stillbirth risk and risk ratios (RR) for 38, 39, 40 and 41+ weeks, using appropriate for gestational age (AGA) at 37 weeks as reference.

Results
Baseline stillbirth risk at 37 weeks was 0.29 per 1,000 and rose to 1.39 at 41+ weeks, with RR increasing to 4.8. In the 3<10 centile band risk rose from 0.72 to 2.43 over the same period, with RR increasing from 2.5 to 8.4. In the <3 centile group, the stillbirth risk rose from 1.62 to 6.16 (RR (5.6 to 21.2). In the 97>90 centile band, risk increased from 0.40 to 1.50 (RR 1.4 to 5.2) and for >97 centiles, it rose from 0.80 to 2.13 (RR 2.8–7.3).

Conclusions
Prospective risk of fetal death at term is related to fetal size. The information provided, together with other considerations and results of investigations where available, will help clinicians to determine the advice to give to mothers about the best timing for delivery, balancing the baby’s risk of compromise with iatrogenic sequelae of early delivery.
HPA-ZSM-5 nanocomposite as high-performance catalyst for the synthesis of indenopyrazolones

Published: May 2022

Abstract
tHPA-ZSM-5 nanocomposites as a superior catalyst have been applied for the synthesis of indenopyrazolones through a three-component reaction of phenylhydrazine, benzaldehydes, and indan-1,2,3-trione at room temperature in acetonitrile. The zeolite catalyst has been characterized by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electronic microscopes, Fourier transform infrared, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and N2-adsorption analysis. The various aromatic aldehydes can be utilized in this method. These results showed that aromatic aldehydes with electron-withdrawing groups reacted faster than aldehydes with electron-releasing groups. Experimental simplicity, excellent yields in short reaction times, reusability of the catalyst, and low catalyst loading are some of the substantial features of this method.
Bengali nasal vowels: lexical representation and listener perception
Authors: Kotzor Sandra , Wetterlin Allison , Roberts Adam Charles , Reetz Henning , Lahiri Aditi 
Published: May 2022

AbstractThis paper focuses on the question of the representation of nasality as well as speakers’ awareness and perceptual use of phonetic nasalisation by examining surface nasalisation in two types of vowels in Bengali: underlying nasal vowels (CṼC) and nasalised vowels before a nasal consonant (CVN). A series of three cross-modal forced-choice experiments was used to investigate the hypothesis that only unpredictable nasalisation is stored and that this sparse representation governs how listeners interpret vowel nasality. Visual full-word targets were preceded by auditory primes consisting of CV segments of CVC words with nasal vowels ([tʃɑ̃] for [tʃɑ̃d] ‘moon’), oral vowels ([tʃɑ] for [tʃɑl] ‘unboiled rice’) or nasalised oral vowels ([tʃɑ̃(n)] for [tʃɑ̃n] ‘bath’) and reaction times and errors were measured. Some targets fully matched the prime while some matched surface or underlying representation only. Faster reaction times and fewer errors were observed after CṼC primes compared to both CVC and CVN primes. Furthermore, any surface nasality was most frequently matched to a CṼC target unless no such target was available. Both reaction times and error data indicate that nasal vowels are specified for nasality leading to faster recognition compared to underspecified oral vowels, which cannot be perfectly matched with incoming signals.

Abstract
The advent of high frequency communication era presents new challenges for further development of dielectric polymer materials. In the field of communication, efficient signal transmission is critical. The lower the dielectric constant of the dielectric material used, the lower the signal delay and the higher the signal fidelity. The preparation of polymer materials with low dielectric constant or reduce the dielectric constant of polymer materials becomes a key research topic. Summarizing past progress and providing perspective, this paper primarily discusses the intrinsic low dielectric polymers, fluorine doped low dielectric polymers, and microporous low dielectric polymers, while predicting the research trend of low dielectric materials.

Abstract
Le Scouarnec, J, Samozino, P, Andrieu, B, Thubin, T, Morin, JB, and Favier, FB. Effects of repeated sprint training with progressive elastic resistance on sprint performance and anterior-posterior force production in elite young soccer players. J Strength Cond Res 36(6): 1675–1681, 2022—This study aimed to determine whether repeated sprint training with progressive high elastic resistance could improve sprint performance and anterior-posterior (AP) force production capacities of elite young soccer players. Seven elite U19 soccer players underwent 10 sessions of elastic-resisted repeated sprints on 8 weeks, whereas 8 U17 players from the same academy (control group) followed the same protocol without elastic bands. Sprint performance and mechanical parameters were recorded on a 30-m sprint before and after training. The control group did not show change for any of the measured variables. In contrast, the elastic-resisted training resulted in a significant improvement of the sprint time (−2.1 ± 1.3%; p = 0.026; Hedges' g = −0.49) and maximal velocity (Vmax; +3.9 ± 2%; p = 0.029; Hedges' g = 0.61) reached during the 30-m sprint. These enhancements were concurrent with an increase in the maximal power output related to AP force (Pmax; +4.9 ± 5.1%%; p = 0.026; Hedges' g = 0.42). Although the theoretical maximal AP force (F0) remained unchanged in both groups, there was a medium but nonsignificant increase in theoretical maximal velocity (V0; +3.7 ± 2.5%; p = 0.13; Hedges' g = 0.5) only in the elastic group. Therefore, the present results show that sprint capacity of elite young soccer players can be further improved by adding incremental resistance against runner displacement to raise the ability to produce AP force, rather at high velocity in the final phase of the acceleration.
Unexpected cure of a toxic nodule in a multinodular goiter induced by immune checkpoint inhibitors: a case report

Published: May 2022

Introduction
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are used to treat cancers including metastatic melanomas and can induce endocrine side effects. The thyroid is frequently affected with classically transient thyrotoxicosis followed by hypothyroidism. The evolution of thyroid nodules and goiters under ICI therapy is poorly described.

Case presentation
A 72-year-old male presenting with hyperthyroidism due to a toxic nodule in a multinodular goiter (MNG) started ICI therapy combining ipilimumab and nivolumab to treat metastatic melanoma. After an initial worsening of thyrotoxicosis, treated with carbimazole, he developed profound hypothyroidism, persisting after carbimazole discontinuation, needing a long-term levothyroxine supplementation. Ultrasound control performed 6 months after ICIs treatment initiation revealed diffuse thyroid atrophy with involution of all nodules. 123I-scintigraphy confirmed a destructive mechanism.

Discussion
The evolution of MNG and toxic nodules is poorly described in patients treated with ICI since systematic US evaluations are lacking. We describe for the first time a toxic nodule cured by ICI therapy inducing destructive thyroiditis.

Conclusion
Pre-existing nodules and MNG, even if toxic, are not a contraindication for ICI treatment provided the patients are carefully monitored.

AbstractGraph labeling is a map that maps graph elements such as vertices, edges, vertices, and edges to a set of numbers. A graph labeling is named e-cordial if there is a binary mapping f:E(G)→{0,1} which induces the vertex labeling defined by g(v)=Ʃ_{uvϵE(G)}f(uv)(mod 2), so that it satisfies the absolute value of the difference between the number of vertices labeled 1 and the number of vertices labeled 0 is less than equal to 1, and also for the number of edges labeled 0 and labeled 1. A graph that admits the e-cordial labeling is called an e-cordial graph. In this paper, we proved that some of the cupola graph Cu(3,b,n) is e-cordial.Keywords: E-Cordial Labeling; E-Cordial Graph; Cupola Graph Cu(a, b, n). AbstrakPelabelan graf merupakan pemetaan yang memetakan unsur-unsur graf seperti simpul, sisi, simpul dan sisi ke himpunan bilangan.

This study discusses sufficient conditions to prove a unique fixed point in quasi-αb-metric spaces with cyclic mapping. The analysis starts by showing fulfillment of the cyclic Banach contraction and proving the Cauchy sequence as a condition for proving a unique fixed point in quasi-αb-metric spaces with cyclic mapping. Furthermore, it's shown that the cyclic mappings, T have a unique fixed point in quasi-αb-metric spaces. Finally, an example is given to strengthen the proof of the theorems that have been done.Keywords: fixed point theory; Quasi -Metric spaces; Cyclic Banach Contraction; Cauchy sequence.

Derechos, Supremacía y Control Constitucional en los inicios del siglo XX.
Authors: Velasco Cano Nicole 
Published: May 2022

Los aportes realizados en el constitucionalismo del siglo XX fueron de gran relevancia para la teoría del derecho y para el derecho constitucional, estos aportes innovarían en la concepción de los derechos, la Constitución, los jueces y el control de constitucionalidad; desde América Latina, con la Constitución de Qureretaro, en México, se empezaron a conocer los primeros derechos de carácter social gracias a las reivindicaciones sociales de los movimientos campesinos; en Europa con la Constitución de Weimar, en Alemania, que incorporo derechos de carácter social y la Constitución de Austria que incorporo la propuesta del control de constitucionalidad realizada por Kelsen, donde los jueces eran los únicos intérpretes de la Constitución, es así como el juez empezó a tomar importancia en la estructura del Estado ya que podía ser el intérprete de la Constitución, también tenía la facultad de analizar las leyes para ver si estaban acordes o no a la norma superior, a lo cual se denominó control de constitucionalidad.
La identidad campesina y la estética del arraigo como resistencia.
Authors: Salazar Manrique Byron , Molina Visnu Posada 
Published: May 2022

Las comunidades campesinas de la zona rural de Buga en las veredas El Placer, La Venta y San Agustín, tienen en común que la mayoría de sus primeros habitantes provienen de Boyacá y Santander. Para vivir allí han tenido que pasar por un proceso económico, social y político, en el que han logrado construir la tradicional finca campesina en el mundo moderno, con todos los desafíos que ello implica. Han tenido que resistir la incursión paramilitar del Bloque Calima y las políticas neoliberales del Estado Colombiano. Este trabajo pretende explorar cómo se ha forjado esa resistencia desde el punto de vista de la estética del arraigo, concepto que se construye a partir de la identidad campesina, la relación con el entorno y con los demás, y las configuraciones estéticas de la resistencia en un mundo donde ser campesino es cada vez más difícil. Para sistematizar la información recogida sobre la comunidad se utilizaron las orientaciones teórico prácticas de Jara Holliday. Se encontró que hay una estética del arraigo que ha tenido un gran desarrollo y logros significativos en la defensa del territorio y los derechos de los campesinos, y que mantener esta resistencia es cada vez más difícil por los retos que implica para los jóvenes campesinos permanecer en los territorios, pues el mundo moderno siempre los está tentando a salir del territorio, a adoptar otras estéticas y a tener otras perspectivas y otros sueños donde no figura el campo como proyecto de vida.

Published: May 2022

El presente artículo expone una experiencia significativa que tuvo como objetivo implementar una estrategia basada en actividades psicopedagógicas orientadas al fortalecimiento de la permanencia estudiantil en la Universidad Nacional Abierta y a Distancia- UNAD- Palmira. En la fase diagnóstica se halló que los principales motivos de la deserción en la universidad para la cohorte 2015-2016 fueron los factores económicos relacionados a una mala inversión del dinero, la falta de organización de tiempo y la falta de adaptación a la metodología virtual. Se evidenció con los estudiantes de últimos periodos académicos próximos al procedimiento de grado, que las habilidades necesarias para la continuidad académica son la autonomía, la autorregulación y la autodisciplina y que el “factor permanencia” más relevante dentro del proceso académico es el establecimiento claro de metas, es decir, el proyecto de vida. La estrategia de permanencia estudiantil implementada: Mini Curso de introducción a la virtualidad, convocó a los estudiantes nuevos del periodo 16-1 de 2017 a participar de manera presencial o virtual durante cinco semanas, en cinco talleres enfocados al proyecto de vida, fortalecimiento de actitudes y aptitudes para la virtualidad, el sentido de pertenencia hacia la institución, fortalecimiento de la red socio-académica del estudiantado, entrenamiento en campus virtual, aprender a aprender en la virtualidad y un acompañamiento permanente en atención sincrónica y asincrónica. Esta estrategia permitió evidenciar en los estudiantes la conformación de una red de apoyo académica, afianzamiento en el manejo del campus virtual, adaptación a la metodología, mejoramiento de hábitos y destrezas propias de la metodología virtual, concientización alrededor de su proyecto de vida académico y sentido de pertenencia a la Universidad. La herramienta web conferencia facilitó la participación, pero a su vez las fallas técnicas de la misma produjeron incomodidades durante el proceso.

Background: Recently observed there is a steadily higher rate of cesarean delivery worldwide mostly due to the increasing number of women requesting an elective cesarean section on maternal request without valid indication. The aim of the study was to determine the causes of elective cesarean delivery on maternal requests in Aljouf Saudi Arabia.Methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study and data was evaluated by completing seven questionnaires and interviews with laboratory reports who were admitted for cesarean delivery at the Obstetrics department of Maternity and Children Hospital (MCH) Aljouf, Saudi Arabia from January 2020 to December 2020. A total of 141 Saudi women of age between 18 and over 35 years were enrolled, including those who have singleton pregnancy, no complications during pregnancy, and no medical indication for cesarean delivery.Results: 141 women reported willingness to request cesarean delivery. The mean systolic 120±6.23, diastolic 75±2.45 blood pressure mm of Hg, and fasting blood sugar level 4.1±1.1 mmol/l have been found within the normal limit. The ultrasound (US) confirmed singleton pregnancy without any abnormalities. Data reveals that common causes of elective cesarean section on maternal request to avoid the episiotomy 77.3%, fear of labor pain 69.5%, trauma to the vagina 79.4%, uncertainty about timing 61.7%, losing a baby during vaginal delivery 54.6%, experience other members 41.8%, the risk for baby 39%, prolapse or incontinence24.1%, unsatisfactory sexual intercourse 17.7% and the undesirable experience of the previous vaginal delivery 12%.Conclusions: Maternal request for cesarean delivery is considered one of the reasons for increasing the rate of cesarean delivery in Saudi Arabia. To avoid the episiotomy and fear of labor pain may strong causes for choosing cesarean delivery.

Published: May 2022

Rupture of a splenic artery aneurysm (SAA) is a rare condition that occurs predominantly in pregnancy. It is associated with a maternal mortality rate of 75% and fetal mortality rate of 95%. The majority ruptured spontaneously. Most cases are not diagnosed until surgery following rupture. Ruptured SAA should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a pregnant patient with severe and unexplained abdominal pain.
