Stage Analysis

Introduction: The figure of the caregiver of dependent persons is today the subject of scientific research in various disciplines in the health and social sciences. However, the terminology used to refer to the caregiver is often confusing, especially when they are not health professionals. Purpose: To analyze the terminology used to refer to the figure of the unpaid caregiver without technical training in scientific publications in recent years. Methods: A two-stage analysis was conducted: (1) review of publications in national and international databases in 1996-2005 and 2006-2016, and (2) review 2006-2016 using specific Dialnet database filters. Results: Despite the more frequent use of "family caregivers" (in Spanish and English) in the publication titles, differences were observed in the use of other terms depending on the year of publication, the subject matter, type of journal or quality of the publication. Conclusion: The lack of agreement on the use of an established terminology to refer to the caregiver profile shows the need for constant revision and updating of the terms.

PurposeThe subject of the article is the concept of augmented intelligence, which constitutes a further stage in the development of research on artificial intelligence. This is a new phenomenon that has rarely been considered in the subject literature so far, which may be interesting for the fields of social sciences and humanities. The aim is to describe the features of this technology and determine the practical and ethical problems associated with its implementation in libraries.Design/methodology/approachThe method of literature review was used. Systematic searches according to specific questions were carried out using the Scopus and Web of Science scientific databases, as well as Google Scholar and the LISTA abstract database.FindingsThe results established that the issue of augmented intelligence has barely been discussed in the field of librarianship. Although this technology may be interesting as a new area of librarian research and as a new framework for designing innovative services, deep ethical consideration is necessary before this technology is introduced in libraries.Research limitations/implicationsThe article deals with some of the newest technologies available, and this topic is generally very rarely discussed in scientific publications in either the social sciences or humanities. Therefore, due to the limited availability of materials, the findings presented in the article are primarily of a conceptual nature. The aim is to present this topic from the perspective of librarianship and to create a starting point for further discussion on the ethical aspects of introducing new technologies in libraries.Practical implicationsThe results can be widely used in practice as a framework for the implementation of augmented intelligence in libraries.Social implicationsThe article can help to facilitate the debate on the role of implementing new technologies in libraries.Originality/valueThe problem of augmented intelligence is very rarely addressed in the subject literature in the field of library and information science.

The purpose of the article was to formulate a general problem and clarify the hypothesis of research on the design of a humanitarian quantorium as a technological digital environment for the formation of teacher competencies in the subject areas “History” and “Social Sciences”, to determine the set and content of teacher competencies in the field of applying humanitarian education technologies. The leading research methods described in this article were the method of foresight design, the method of expert panels and methods for the diagnostic study of occupational deficiencies. The materials presented in the article contain a description of the results of a pilot study on identifying professional deficiencies of a history and social science teacher, a generalized, refined set and content of the future teacher’s competencies in the field of applying humanitarian education technologies in a digital environment, a conceptual rationale for equipping a humanitarian quantorium as a technological environment for the formation of teacher competencies. In the substantiation, an integrated approach was applied, which allows to combine the content of humanitarian education, teaching technologies and digital means into a single innovative didactic space. The conclusions are drawn to the peculiarities of the application of the humanitarian quantorium model in the wide practice of professional training of history and social studies teachers for the implementation of the developmental capabilities of the subjects of the humanitarian cycle and improving the quality of humanitarian education.

The aim of the study was to study the available approaches to the formulation and quality control of forensic medical expert conclusions. We have studied the literature sources containing recommendations on drawing up expert opinions and improving their quality. After a selection of scientific publications and publications on the subject matter with the help of a descriptive method, the article presents the existing approaches to this problem. As a result of the conducted research, the absence of any general objective requirements for expert conclusions was revealed. The development of unified standards for writing and the definition of “signs of quality” of expert conclusions is a promising task of forensic science and practice, the solution of which will improve the quality of examinations.

Despite some general interest in the development and evaluation of continuing education for health professionals, the voluminous research literature on the subject is unfortunately equivocal as to exactly what approaches work and in which situations. In 1977, Bertram and Brookes-Bertram reviewed 113 studies of continuing medical education (CME): they found that three out of the eight studies which they judged as acceptably designed showed persistent positive effects. More recently, of six studies which examined the effect of CME upon the quality of care, half reported positive effects and half reported no effect, although all the studies demonstrated cognitive improvements.

The contribution to science by the academics of a country and the science-policy owned by the same country is accepted as the most basic indicator of the development in that country. The most important concept to be addressed in the advancement and transformation of science is scientific quality. The purpose of this study is to determine the views of academics regarding the reasons for the quality problems, especially in the social sciences field, and to share the solution suggestions for these problems by the academics. The phenomenological approach, which is one of the qualitative research types, was adopted as the method of the study to examine the views and experiences of the academics in a more detailed manner. Content analysis technique was used in the analysis of the data collected by the interview method. The findings of the study were categorized into two main themes based on the views of the academics, as the reasons for the qualitative publication problem, and the suggestions addressed for this problem. The reasons for the problem of qualitative publication are presented in six categories: the content of the publications, journal, academician, current structure, cultural context and political pressures.

Abstract Objective: To map international scientific production on falls and deaths among the elderly. Method: A bibliometric study of academic papers was carried out in the ISI Web of Knowledge/Web of ScienceTM. The search terms "elderly*", "fall*" and "death*" were used for studies between 1990 and 2016. Articles from events or those still in the editing process and studies in the form of "conference proceedings", "editorial material" and "letters" were excluded, with only finished studies and complete "articles" and "reviews" considered. Results: After applying the refinement filters, 668 articles were identified during the 26 year evaluation period, published in 364 different journals indexed to the database in question. These were written by 2,958 authors with links to 1131 research institutions located in 63 countries. The articles included 22,093 references, with an average of approximately 33 references per study. Conclusion: The articles on falls and deaths among the elderly emphasize the need for more specific studies on the subject and its potential for exploration in future research. This study revealed the need for this issue to be discussed in the training of health professionals, as it represents an opportunity to deconstruct and reconstruct concepts and values that are established throughout the life of individuals, such as care related to the avoidability of falls, to improve the quality of life of this population.

Epithelial Barrier Function

There is converging and increasing evidence, but also uncertainty, for the role of abnormal intestinal epithelial barrier function in the origin and development of a growing number of human gastrointestinal and extraintestinal inflammatory disorders, and their related complaints. Despite a vast literature addressing factors and mechanisms underlying changes in intestinal permeability in humans, and its connection to the appearance and severity of clinical symptoms, the ultimate link remains to be established in many cases. Accordingly, there are no directives or clinical guidelines related to the therapeutic management of intestinal permeability disorders that allow health professionals involved in the management of these patients to carry out a consensus treatment based on clinical evidence. Instead, there are multiple pseudoscientific approaches and commercial propaganda scattered on the internet that confuse those affected and health professionals and that often lack scientific rigor. Therefore, in this review we aim to shed light on the different therapeutic options, which include, among others, dietary management, nutraceuticals and medical devices, microbiota and drugs, and epigenetic and exosomes-manipulation, through an objective evaluation of the scientific publications in this field. Advances in the knowledge and management of intestinal permeability will sure enable better options of dealing with this group of common disorders to enhance quality of life of those affected.
