This study examines how the short time available for this hearing affects the detainee’s ability to exercise their fundamental rights. The objective is to analyze the impact of this hearing on the detainee’s right to defense, focusing on obtaining exonerating evidence, identifying deficiencies in the current system, and proposing solutions. A methodology combining inductive and deductive methods, as well as a synthetic analytical approach and surveys of legal professionals from the Canton Paute, Azuay Province, in 2022, were employed. The results show that the limited time for the flagrancy hearing restricts the detainee’s ability to gather exonerating evidence. Deficiencies in the system were identified, such as the lack of opportunities for the detainee’s effective participation and the proper consideration of exonerating evidence. It is concluded that reforming the system is necessary to ensure full respect for the detainee’s rights, through measures allowing their active participation and fair consideration of exonerating evidence, thus seeking a more equitable and respectful administration of justice in Ecuador.</p> Bolívar Agustín Lucero Suco, Andrea Lisseth Durán Ramírez Copyright (c) 2024 Bolívar Agustín Lucero Suco, Andrea Lisseth Durán Ramírez https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://revista.religacion.com/index.php/religacion/article/view/1243 Sun, 30 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Accounting challenges of Ecuadorian public universities: a case analysis focused on profitability and institutional debt https://revista.religacion.com/index.php/religacion/article/view/1256 <p style="font-weight: 400;">This article examines the accounting challenges of Ecuadorian public universities, focusing on profitability and institutional indebtedness during the period from 2019 to 2021. It was identified that institutions face significant obstacles that impact their financial stability and ability to meet their educational and research goals. These challenges arise not only from economic constraints and increases in operating costs, but also from mismatches between accounting practices and the standards required for transparent and efficient management. The research adopted a quantitative and correlational approach, using Pearson's R coefficient to examine the relationship between several financial indicators, such as liquidity, management, profitability, and indebtedness. This methodology allowed a rigorous assessment of the economic status of the University of the Armed Forces, Latacunga Campus, and revealed the influence of financial management on institutional sustainability. The results showed that, although the university maintains high liquidity, indicative of its ability to cover short-term debts, it faces a low level of profitability and indebtedness that compromises its capacity for long-term investment and growth. The discussion of the study highlights the need for more efficient management of resources and the implementation of strategies that improve profitability without compromising educational quality. In conclusion, this study not only contributes to the existing literature by providing a detailed analysis of financial management in a public academic context, but also offers practical recommendations for the optimization of resources in public universities.</p> Katherine Fernanda Segovia Borja Copyright (c) 2024 Katherine Fernanda Segovia Borja https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://revista.religacion.com/index.php/religacion/article/view/1256 Tue, 25 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Enteral Nutrition in Neonates https://revista.religacion.com/index.php/religacion/article/view/1240 <p>Enteral nutrition is an effective nutritional support procedure currently used for critically ill patients who have difficulty with food intake, consisting in the administration of the necessary nutrients. The objective was to describe updated information on nursing intervention in the administration of enteral nutrition in neonates. In the methodology, a descriptive bibliographic review was carried out in the databases Scopus, Proquest, Web of Science, Scielo, Pubmed, Redalyc, as well as in the WHO and PAHO web pages. According to the different inclusion criteria, articles in Spanish, English and Portuguese, studies with time frame 2019 to 2024, 702 articles were obtained in the search, of which 49 documents were analyzed through an exhaustive review. As results, the enteral nutrition requirements are established by immaturity of the sucking reflex, orofacial alterations, swallowing and esophageal alterations, inability to ingest, intrauterine growth retardation, hemodynamically unstable, with a weight of less than 1500 grams. To conclude, continuous training in enteral nutrition in neonates was necessary, due to the number of associated factors and complications that can be triggered during this procedure, which could deteriorate the patient’s health.</p> Karla Romero, Veronica Sumba, Isabel Mesa Copyright (c) 2024 Karla Romero, Veronica Sumba, Isabel Mesa https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://revista.religacion.com/index.php/religacion/article/view/1240 Mon, 24 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Idioventricular Rhythm: Clinical Case https://revista.religacion.com/index.php/religacion/article/view/1239 <p>RIVA is considered the most prevalent arrhythmia during the resolution phase of acute myocardial infarction. underestimation of the real risk of certain adjacent causes could condition the development of complications, and the identification of electrocardiographic changes is decisive. To determine the different clinical contexts that point to idioventricular rhythm and its differentiation from ventricular tachycardia, as well as other analogous alterations. Based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, a clinical case analysis was performed, together with the analysis of high impact literature. 74-year-old patient attended for cardiovascular evaluation after AMI, hemodynamically stable; an electrocardiogram was performed, and a RIVA was found plus salvos of atrial fibrillation. Specific management is reserved in cases of hemodynamic instability, and emphasis should be placed on prevention and control of cardiovascular risk factors.</p> Marjorie Espinoza, Veronica Sumba, Isabel Mesa Copyright (c) 2024 Marjorie Espinoza, Veronica Sumba, Isabel Mesa https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://revista.religacion.com/index.php/religacion/article/view/1239 Sat, 22 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000 From Femicide to Feminicide: Legal-Penal Implications in the Classification of Crimes Against Women in Ecuador https://revista.religacion.com/index.php/religacion/article/view/1223 <p>The transformation of the term “femicide” to “feminicide” in Ecuador’s legal framework would mark a significant advance in the protection of women’s rights and the fight against gender-based violence. This development reflects the need for more comprehensive and sensitive legislation that addresses the cultural and structural roots of gender discrimination. The objective of this article is to analyze the legal-penal implications of the criminalization of the crime against women in Ecuador, focusing on the legislative evolution from femicide to feminicide, the challenges in the implementation of legal measures, and possible strategies to improve the protection of women’s rights. The methodology involved a review of Ecuadorian legislation related to femicide, as well as academic studies, government reports and documents from civil society organizations on the subject. In addition, semi-structured interviews were conducted with human rights experts to obtain a broad perspective on the issue. The results show that the inclusion of the term “femicide” in the Comprehensive Organic Criminal Code in 2014 has had a significant impact on the definition and prosecution of this type of crime in Ecuador. However, challenges persist in the implementation of the legislation, such as the lack of gender awareness among legal professionals and the underreporting of cases of gender-based violence. To conclude, the fight against femicide in Ecuador requires a comprehensive approach that addresses the underlying causes of gender-based violence and promotes a cultural shift towards equality and respect. It is essential to strengthen collaboration between the government, civil society organizations and the community at large, as well as to improve awareness and training of professionals in the judicial system. Ultimately, the eradication of femicide requires a joint commitment from all sectors of society.<strong><span class="Apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span></strong></p> María José Vázquez Villavicencio, Andra Lisseth Durán Ramírez Copyright (c) 2024 María José Vázquez Villavicencio, Andra Lisseth Durán Ramírez https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://revista.religacion.com/index.php/religacion/article/view/1223 Sat, 22 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000
