Plantas diaforéticas y depurativas en la medicina tradicional china: Utilización de plantas occidentales según la fitoterapia clínica
No full textThe scope of TCM on medicinal plants is far different from western scope. Treating wind-cold diseases like asthma, or colds, with chinese herbal medicines must have several particular requisites: Majar, minar and organoleptic or sensitive aspects.

The chinese point of view, ideollogically far from the western one, has a similar treatment but with chinese plants. The author propases that western plants like thym, rosemary, or others, can be as useful as chinese ones in TCM if we use them with the chinese method of electing the treatment
THE IMPACT OF THE PROVISION OF OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY SERVICES FOR ONCOLOGY CARE PATIENTS WITHIN THE INTERPROFESSIONAL TEAM
Get PDFPurpose: There is growing evidence to suggest that occupational and other therapy interventions can play a role in positively affecting the outcomes of individuals with cancer and cancer survivors. Occupational therapists can address peripheral neuropathy, lymphedema, pain, fatigue, cognitive deficits, and psychosocial issues (Baxter et al., 2017; Stout et al., 2021; Vining Radomski et al., 2021). Through appropriate assessment, intervention, education, and discharge planning, occupational therapists and other rehabilitation specialties can attempt to collaboratively change the outcome of an individual’s cancer course (Munoz et al., 2015). Individuals with cancer and cancer survivors have difficulty engaging in their own life in meaningful ways due to a multitude of physical and psychosocial causes (Baxter et al., 2017). There is also evidence suggesting providers do not know when to refer patients to rehabilitation services and individuals with cancer do not know when rehabilitation would be appropriate for them (Rijpkema et al., 2018; Stout et al, 2021).
Methodology: A model-driven literature review was completed regarding occupational therapy’s role in oncology care. The interprofessional collaborative practice (IPCP) model (American Occupational Therapy Association, 2024) was utilized to guide the review of literature, followup onsite needs assessment, collaboration with providers, literary comparison, and overall development of the project and handbook, which will be the product of this scholarly project. The occupational therapy theoretical framework, person-environment-occupation (PEO) model (Law et al., 1996) was used as a secondary model to guide the aspects listed previously and to inform the development of the patient aspects of the handbook. The handbook will be used to enhance the role of occupational therapy and other rehabilitation specialties within an interprofessional oncology team.
Results: The handbook Quality of Life During Oncology Care: A Therapy Guide for Patients was created to address the current gap in care for individuals with cancer. This handbook addresses a lack of referrals from providers to oncology rehabilitation teams and lack of provider and patient knowledge regarding oncology rehabilitation care, as well as numerous areas for patients including how to determine if rehabilitation is appropriate, education regarding secondary conditions, a home therapy program, and numerous self-management techniques. The handbook was delivered by the author to the interprofessional team in a variety of mediums to allow for transferability and continuity among interprofessional members.
Conclusion: It is anticipated that the scholarly project and handbook will assist in the provision of rehabilitation services for individuals with cancer and cancer survivors. Occupational therapists and other providers on the interprofessional team will be better equipped to serve patients, and patients may have better outcomes with the provision of this handbook
Potential Financial feasibility Analysis of Soybean Tempe production in Madagascar based on Indonesian Soybean Tempe Home Industry
Get PDFOriginally from Indonesia, tempe is a traditional fermented soybean food. Madagascar has enormous potential for soybean production. However, there is a decline in production due to lack of product processing and marketing knowledge. The promotion of this commodity help to contribute to food security and to fight against malnutrition and poverty by improving the income of the actors. This research aim to analyze the soybean tempe business (small scale industry) in Surakarta city in order to introduce and implement that business in other countries. Madagascar is the target country in this research. A financial feasibility study was conducted to determine an eventual launch of soybean tempe business in Madagascar and to predict the market acceptance. The result shows that the average cost of soybean production in a month in Surakarta City is Rp13 751 786. The average revenue is Rp15 917 067, so that we get an average profit of Rp2 165 281 per month. The soybean tempe business is beneficial with a profitability value of 15.74%. The efficiency value is estimated at 1.16. Based on the local price in Madagascar and the analysis made in Indonesia, it was determined that the project need an initial investment of Rp14 661 638 for the launch of the business. The Benefit Cost Ratio (BRC), the Net Present Value (NPV) and the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) show that the soybean tempe business is clearly feasible in Madagascar. The comparative analysis of price reveal also that soybean tempe is a good alternative for the Malagasy people as it is far cheaper than the other food rich in protein. However, the sensitivity analysis highlighted that the business cannot resist to an increase of 10% of the soybean price or a decrease of 10% of the production or both
A Common Protocol for Agent-Based Social Simulation
Get PDFTraditional (i.e. analytical) modelling practices in the social sciences rely on a very well established, although implicit, methodological protocol, both with respect to the way models are presented and to the kinds of analysis that are performed. Unfortunately, computer-simulated models often lack such a reference to an accepted methodological standard. This is one of the main reasons for the scepticism among mainstream social scientists that results in low acceptance of papers with agent-based methodology in the top journals. We identify some methodological pitfalls that, according to us, are common in papers employing agent-based simulations, and propose appropriate solutions. We discuss each issue with reference to a general characterization of dynamic micro models, which encompasses both analytical and simulation models. In the way, we also clarify some confusing terminology. We then propose a three-stage process that could lead to the establishment of methodological standards in social and economic simulations.Agent-based, simulations, methodology, calibration, validation.
Minar el concepto actual de salud. Consideraciones intempestivas entre fisiología y estética
No full textThe article deals with the problem of health in Nietzsche’s philosophy. While secondary literature on this topichas been usually confined to his works posterior to 1878, this text especially focusses on an earlier work, i.e.,theUntimely Meditations. It is shown how that work is relevant to the topic, for there the author denouncesfor the first time the inadequacy of general formulas of health. Upon this criticism, he will eventually build hisown conception of health and illness. This analysis starts with what Nietzsche called a cultural and historicalillness in the early 1870s: an illness that, paradoxically, generated an inadequate notion of ‘health’. Secondly,this investigation deals with the Nietzschean reaction to that generalised illness, dwelling on the conceptof health as anindividual process, in the form of a connection between the aesthetic and the physiologicalfields. Finally, this article elucidates the problems within the concept of the innumerable healths of the body,hinting at some contemporary challenges.El artículo aborda el problema de la salud en Nietzsche, manifestando su centralidad ya en las Consideraciones Intempestivas. De este modo se pretende ampliar el alcance de la investigación del tema de la salud en Nietzsche, que se suele quedar confinado en las obras posteriores. Se mostrará cómo esa obra es relevante para el tema, pues allí el autor denuncia por primera vez la insuficiencia de las fórmulas generales de salud. Sobre esta crítica, acabará construyendo su propia concepción de la salud y la enfermedad. En primer lugar, se aborda el tema de la enfermedad cultural y histórica que Nietzsche diagnosticó ya al principio de la década 1870: una enfermedad que, a su vez, genera una noción inadecuada de lo que es la ‘salud’. En consecuencia, se trata de la reacción nietzscheana a esta enfermedad generalizada, ilustrando la concepción de la salud como un proceso individual. Esta concepción adopta la forma de una conexión inédita entre los ámbitos estético y fisiológico. Por último, se problematiza el concepto de las innumerables saludes del cuerpo, aludiendo a algunos desafíos contemporáneos
Affiliate Motivation Theory
No full textRachmad, Yoesoep Edhie. 2023. Affiliate Motivation Theory. Lahore Minar Kitab Ishaat, Khaas Edition 2023. https://doi.org/10.17605/osf.io/pdgsk
The Affiliate Motivation Theory, conceptualized by Yoesoep Edhie Rachmad and detailed in his 2023 publication "Lahore Minar Kitab Ishaat, Khaas Edition," delves into the factors that motivate individuals to participate in affiliate marketing programs. Since beginning his research in 2016, Rachmad has explored how various motivational aspects influence affiliates' engagement and success, fundamentally shaping the dynamics of affiliate networks and marketing strategies.
This theory originates from the need to understand the driving forces behind the decision of individuals to become affiliates — that is, to promote products or services on behalf of a company and earn commissions from sales or leads generated. With the growing prevalence of affiliate marketing as a major digital marketing strategy, understanding what motivates affiliates becomes crucial for optimizing program effectiveness and affiliate satisfaction.
The Affiliate Motivation Theory posits that motivation in affiliate marketing can be broadly categorized into intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Intrinsic motivation includes personal satisfaction, enjoyment of the marketing activity, and a passion for the product or niche itself. Extrinsic motivation encompasses financial incentives, recognition, and the social benefits of being part of an affiliate community.
Rachmad concludes that a successful affiliate program must carefully balance these motivational factors to attract and retain productive affiliates. He suggests that while financial incentives are critical, providing additional value through training, support, and community-building can enhance affiliates' intrinsic motivation, leading to higher dedication and long-term engagement.
He recommends that companies running affiliate programs should invest in understanding the specific needs and preferences of their affiliates, customize communications and rewards to meet these preferences, and continuously innovate their offerings to keep the affiliate engagement high. Rachmad also emphasizes the importance of transparency and trust in maintaining a healthy affiliate relationship, suggesting that clear communication about policies, payments, and performance metrics is essential.
Overall, the Affiliate Motivation Theory offers a comprehensive look at the multifaceted motivations driving affiliate marketers. It provides valuable insights for companies looking to leverage affiliate marketing effectively, advocating for strategies that not only focus on competitive financial compensation but also foster a supportive and engaging affiliate environment.
