De la memoria al olvido : Susana San Juan ed Pedro Páramo

Maria Claudia Macias Rodriguez 서울대학교 스페인중남미연구소 2005 이베로아메리카硏究 Vol.16 No.-

En Pedro Páramo, el problema del tiempo se presenta en términos de la memoria y el recuerdo. Comala es un mundo en donde los muertos y los pocos vivos -que luego morirán también- se entremezclan mediante las voces del recuerdo y las imágenes de la memoria. La crítica tradicionalmente ha centrado su interés en la presencia de la memoria colectiva, atendiendo a uno de los grandes compromisos asumidos por la novela: la voz de los que no tienen voz, es decir, el pueblo frente a las instituciones que detentan el poder. Dichas instituciones ostentan el discurso histórico oficial, que en esta obra se encuentra representado por el cacique, Pedro Páramo. Sin embargo, hay un personaje singular en muchos aspectos, Susana San Juan. Esta mujer no sólo es el motivo de la gloria y la desgracia del cacique, es también el punto de unión entre la memoria colectiva del pueblo -de donde procede- y la memoria individual del cacique. Ambas memorias se funden en una síntesis ideal que integra la novela en su totalidad.

Reproducibility of cone-beam computed tomographic measurements of bone plates and the interdental septum in the anterior mandible

Valerio, Claudia Scigliano,Alves, Claudia Assuncao e,Manzi, Flavio Ricardo Korean Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology 2019 Imaging Science in Dentistry Vol.49 No.1

Purpose: This study aimed to introduce a novel method to evaluate the alveolar bone and interdental septum in the anterior mandible using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Materials and Methods: Fifty-six CBCT scans from adult patients were selected. The CBCT scans were obtained before and after orthodontic treatment. The following measurements were taken: width of the alveolar bone and the interdental septum, height of the interdental septum, height of the bone plates, distance between the cementoenamel junction and marginal bone crests, and vertical positioning of the mandibular incisor, using the lingual plane as a reference. To test the reproducibility and the stability of the lingual plane, a triangle was traced in the anterior mandible. The intra-class correlation coefficient(ICC) was used to determine intra- and inter-examiner agreement. The paired Student t-test was used to evaluate the area of the triangle and the reproducibility of all measurements. Results: The ICC was excellent for the alveolar bone and dental measurements (0.9989 and 0.9977, respectively), as well as for the interdental septum (0.9987 and 0.9961, respectively). The area of the triangles showed stability in the lingual plane (P>0.05). For the alveolar bone, mandibular incisor, and interdental septum measurements, no statistically significant differences were found between the 2 examiners(P>0.05), confirming the technical reliability of the measurements. Conclusion: The method used in this study provides a valid and reproducible assessment of alveolar bone dimensions in the anterior mandible measured on CBCT images.

Bone changes in the mandibular incisors after orthodontic correction of dental crowding without extraction: A cone-beam computed tomographic evaluation

Valerio, Claudia Scigliano,Cardoso, Claudia Assuncao e Alves,Arauujo, Eustaquio Afonso,Zenobio, Elton Goncalves,Manzi, Flavio Ricardo Korean Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology 2021 Imaging Science in Dentistry Vol.51 No.2

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate changes of the alveolar bone and interdental bone septum of the mandibular incisors through cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) after orthodontic treatment of mandibular dental crowding without dental extraction. Materials and Methods: The sample consisted of 64 CBCT images(32 pre-treatment and 32 post-treatment) from 32 adult patients with class I malocclusion and an average age of 23.0±3.9 years. The width and height of the alveolar bone and interdental septum, the distance between the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) and the facial and lingual bone crests, and the inclination of the mandibular incisors were measured. Results: The distance between the CEJ and the marginal bone crest on the facial side increased significantly (P<0.05). An increased distance between the CEJ and the bone crest on the facial and lingual sides showed a correlation with the irregularity index (P<0.05); however, no significant association was observed with increasing mandibular incisor inclination (P>0.05). The change in the distance between the CEJ and the marginal bone crest on the facial side was correlated significantly with bone septum height(P<0.05). Conclusion: Bone dehiscence developed during the treatment of crowding without extraction only on the incisors' facial side. Increasing proclination of the mandibular incisor was not correlated with bone dehiscence. The degree of dental crowding assessed through the irregularity index was associated with the risk of developing bone dehiscence. The interdental septum reflected facial marginal bone loss in the mandibular incisors.

Movilización Social, Cabildos Ciudadanos y el Proceso Constitucional en Chile

Claudia Dides 한국라틴아메리카학회 2021 라틴아메리카연구 Vol.34 No.2

Chile’s social explosion on October 18, 2019 was the outcome of a longstanding process. Its roots are in the 1980s Constitution imposed by the military dictatorship and the economic, social and political model based on Milton Freedman’s ideas. The model, modified under democracy in its more extreme aspects and accompanied by aggressive policies to reduce poverty, brought about a process of economic development and reduction of poverty. However, from the beginning it showed its inner tendency to increase structural inequalities and it was applied in a context of a quasi-monopolistic economic structure where collusion practices easily take place. The people felt they were being repeatedly abused, which resulted in the social explosion. Hundreds of thousands of Chileans mobilized daily up until the appearance of Covid 19; they denounced the existing inequalities and abuses. In a parallel development, thousands of participants all along Chile spontaneously invited themselves to citizen’s meetings to discuss about the problems they and the country had, and they reached important conclusions. The objective of this paper is to report and analyze the dynamics of these conversations and meetings, and the conclusions reached, which will be an especially important input for the work of the Constitutional Convention where democratically elected Chilean men and women—with parity representation—will elaborate the New Constitution of the country.

Background: Police officers’ stress perception, frequency of stressful events (stressors), and police work characteristics may contribute to poor sleep quality through different mechanisms. Methods: We investigated associations of stress severity (measured by stress rating score) and frequency of stressors with sleep quality and examined the influence of police work characteristics including workload, police rank, prior military experience, and shift work on the associations. Participants were 356 police officers (256 men and 100 women) enrolled in the Buffalo Cardio-Metabolic Occupational Police Stress Study from 2004 to 2009. A mean stress rating score and mean frequency of stressors occurring in the past month were computed for each participant from the Spielberger Police Stress Survey data. Sleep quality was assessed using the global score derived from the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index survey. Linear associations of the stress rating score and frequency of stressors with sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index global score) were tested. Age, sex, race/ethnicity, and smoking status were selected as potential confounders. Results: The stress rating score was positively and independently associated with poor sleep quality (b ¼ 0.17, p ¼ 0.002). Only workload significantly modified this association (b ¼ 0.23, p ¼ 0.001 for high workload group; p-interaction ¼ 0.109). The frequency of stressors was positively and independently associated with poor sleep quality (b ¼ 0.13, p ¼ 0.025). Only police rank significantly modified the association (b ¼ 0.007, p ¼ 0.004 for detectives/other executives; p-interaction ¼ 0.076). Conclusion: Both police officers’ perception of stress severity and the frequency of stressors are associated with poor sleep quality. Stress coping or sleep promotion regimens may be more beneficial among police officers reporting high workloads.

EFFECTS OF BEAUTY VLOGGERS’ EWOM AND SPONSORED ADVERTISING – THE CASE OF SINA WEIBO

Claudia E. Henninger,Marta Blazquez-Cano,Weifang Ding 글로벌지식마케팅경영학회 2016 Global Marketing Conference Vol.2016 No.7

This article investigates the effects of beauty vloggers’ (video bloggers) eWOM and sponsored advertising on followers utilizing Sina Weibo, thereby exploring the concepts of eWOM, opinion leadership, and social status. This exploratory qualitative study found that vlogging differs from traditional blogging in that direct advertising that fosters ease of purchase of a product is appreciated by followers, whilst direct marketing, which in this case refers to simply describing the benefits of products and/or services, is seen as unfavorable. Moreover, this research found a relationship between the influence of vloggers, expertise of followers, the level of detail in adverts, and the level of trust. This provides valuable insights into attitudes and perceptions of followers of beauty vlogs, which can utilized as practical implications to develop targeted advertising strategies for companies seeking to promote their products and brands through third party vlogs.

Limites de la conciencia historica en Palacio Quemado de Edmundo Paz-Soldan

( Claudia Macias De Yoon ) 한국스페인어문학회 2016 스페인어문학 Vol.0 No.78

Edmundo Paz-Soldan emerged on the international scene in the context of McOndo anthology, which is characterized for proclaiming a neo individualistic aesthetic on the postmodern platform. Nevertheless, in Palacio Quemado(2006), he seems a writer interested in the Bolivian history, taking up some historical facts in order to develop a proposal on La Paz and Cochabamba instead of the mythical town Rio Fugitivo, as in his previous novels. This article points out that although the author expresses an historical awareness, the historical references in the novel are based on his autobiography and his essays as socio-political analyst. Consequently, in the novel, there is particular view of the plurinational project proclaimed by the President Evo Morales. In order to achieve our objective, the first paragraph introduces the context of the publication of this novel, its importance in the United States and Latin America. The second part examines the contents of the political essay that are included in the novelized narration. And, the third section analyses the incorporation and adaptation of the elements of the novel from the autobiography towards the national history. Finally, in the fourth section, we will set out to present the project plurinacional against the problem of racism.

Targeted deletion of the AAA-ATPase Ruvbl1 in mice disrupts ciliary integrity and causes renal disease and hydrocephalus

Ciliopathies comprise a large number of hereditary human diseases and syndromes caused by mutations resulting in dysfunction of either primary or motile cilia. Both types of cilia share a similar architecture. While primary cilia are present on most cell types, expression of motile cilia is limited to specialized tissues utilizing ciliary motility. We characterized protein complexes of ciliopathy proteins and identified the conserved AAA-ATPase Ruvbl1 as a common novel component. Here, we demonstrate that Ruvbl1 is crucial for the development and maintenance of renal tubular epithelium in mice: both constitutive and inducible deletion in tubular epithelial cells result in renal failure with tubular dilatations and fewer ciliated cells. Moreover, inducible deletion of Ruvbl1 in cells carrying motile cilia results in hydrocephalus, suggesting functional relevance in both primary and motile cilia. Cilia of Ruvbl1-negative cells lack crucial proteins, consistent with the concept of Ruvbl1-dependent cytoplasmic pre-assembly of ciliary protein complexes.

Measuring the Impact of COVID-19 Restrictions on Mobility: A Real Case Study from Italy

Claudia Cavallaro,Armir Bujari,Luca Foschini,Giuseppe Di Modica,Paolo Bellavista 한국통신학회 2021 Journal of communications and networks Vol.23 No.5

When COVID-19 first struck the provinces of NorthernItaly in early 2020 (especially in Lombardy and in Emilia-Romagna), the conditions there made it a perfect storm. Thevirus outbreak spread with an unusual violence (in the periodfrom late February to April 2020), with a catastrophic toll interms of human deaths. Taken by surprise, Italy mandated acomplete nation-wide lockdown, successively resorting to ministerialdecrees alleviating and postponing the restrictions. Now more than ever, there is an increased awareness onICT used to combat the pandemic. In this article, we presenta quantitative analysis evidencing the impact of restrictions onmobility. To this end, we rely on a vehicular mobility datasetconfined in the downtown area of Bologna, Italy. Pursuingthe objective, we propose a modified version of a state-of-theartdata mining algorithm, allowing us to efficiently identifyand quantify mobility flows. The proposal, if combined withadditional data sources, could allow for a fine-grained and timelydecision making, combating the pandemic.
