Authors: Tryanti Weli
Published: March 2022

This paper aimed to find out the degrees of linguistic supports, content-based and affective supports, skill supports, and diversity and flexibility of speaking materials in “Pathway to English” for the tenth-grade students of senior high school. This was a descriptive research type with content analysis. The English textbook “Pathway to English” was published by Erlangga. The theory of Dat Bao was used to analyze the data. Based on the analysis, the result of linguistic support shows 36.36 % which means “Poor”. The result of content-based and affective support shows 54.54 % which means “Sufficient”. The result of skill support shows 45.45 % which means “Poor”. Diversity and flexibility show the result 45.45 % which is “Poor”. It is concluded that the speaking materials are not fully supported inspiration, imagination, creativity, and cultural sensibilities to satisfy learners with moments of inspiration, imagination, creativity, and cultural sensibilities, lack of spoken language characteristics, communication function and strategies, and a variety of speaking materials. It implies that the materials should be elaborated to fulfill those criteria proposed by Bao.

Effect of Cu\(^{2+}\) Dopant on the Formation of Zinc Oxide Microrod Fabricated by a Hydrothermal Method
Authors: Nguyen Sang Xuan , Le Phuoc Sang , Luu Thi Lan Anh
Published: March 2022

Reconstruction and stabilization of polar oxide surfaces, such as ZnO, contribute a significant role in photocatalysis, chemical sensing, and optoelectronic applications, however their physical chemistry insight is still a puzzle in the surface science. In this work, the  polar surface instability induced the morphological evolution of hydrothermally synthesized micro-rod ZnO doped with various contents of Cu2+ ion (1-10 at.%)  was investigated. The transformation of micro-rod morphology from the high aspect ratio flower-like shape of the pure ZnO to the hexagonal prism-like shape of the doped ZnO was characterized by X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy and micro Raman spectroscopy. The chemically active Zn-terminated polar surface in doped samples was less positive charge density which was the main reason to cancel the electrostatic instability for the dominant  growing direction. Furthermore, the schematic models of the electron transferring from the conduction band region to the electron trap centre of Cu2+, and the Zn-terminated polar surface reconstruction were proposed for the morphological evolution mechanism.

Published: March 2022

We investigate the impact of ambiguities coming from the choice of optical potentials and nucleon-nucleon scattering cross sections on the spectroscopic factors extracted from the 12C(p,2p)11B reaction. These ambiguities are evaluated by analyzing the cross sections of the 12C(p,2p)11B reaction at 100 and 200 MeV within the framework of the distorted-wave impulse approximation with realistic choices of nuclear inputs. The results show that the studied ambiguities are considerably large in this energy region and careful choices of nuclear inputs used in the reaction calculations are required to extract reliable structure information.
Liturgical Tradition of Rome in the 11th Century: A Preliminary List of Manuscripts
Authors:   National Research University Higher School of Economics, Moscow, Tkachenko Alexander A.
Published: March 2022

This article examines manuscripts that help reconstruct the authentic liturgical tradition of the city of Rome in the eleventh century. This tradition goes back to the early Middle Ages and, contrary to the hypothesis of Th. Klauser and M. Andrieu, did not undergo “Germanisation” after the imperial coronation of Otto I the Great but existed with certain changes until the thirteenth century. To determine whether manuscripts belong to this tradition, it is necessary to use a complex methodology that considers the data of palaeography, art history, musicology, and liturgy. It should be distinguished from the liturgy of some monastic congregations (Cluny, Monte Cassino), which were represented in Rome and its suburbs. The books of the Canons Regular of the Lateran, which represent a distinct version of the reformed worship, should be considered separately. The analysis of the manuscripts is carried out in the article according to the types of liturgical books: Lectionaries, Sacramentaries, Graduals, Antiphonaries, etc. Additionally, the article analyses surviving medieval lists of books kept in Roman churches. The author concludes that authentic Roman liturgy is reflected in 32 surviving manuscripts of different types (3 more require additional study). For most of them, the author establishes their affiliation with a particular Roman church or monastery. Most of them reflect the state of worship during the period of the Gregorian reform, but some of them make it possible to study the previous stage in the history of liturgy in Rome. As an excursus, the author considers the origin of the Evangelistary-Sacramentary Arch. Cap. S. Pietro. F 12, which, according to the author, was not created in Rome, as was commonly believed, but in the abbey of San Tommaso in Foglia.

In the Russian humanities, cultural and anthropological studies of Soviet feature cinema are poorly represented. The monograph reviewed is one of the few significant studies in this field. On the one hand, in cultural anthropology, feature films are considered a significant visual source. On the other hand, there are serious theoretical and methodological difficulties in the investigation of such cultural policy instruments that make it possible to form a certain anthropological type. V. Mikhailin and G. Belyaeva solve these difficulties, relying on the idea of the fundamentally empathic nature of feature films and the normative poetics that accompanied different periods of Soviet history. The authors carry out painstaking work on the analysis of plots, practices of camera operation, film directors’ decisions, actors’ play, typical characters, and collisions of the Soviet “school” cinema. The film analysis is supplemented by a clarification of the historical and cultural context of their creation. The review notes that the theoretical sections of the work are written concisely. This does not allow for full substantiation of the monograph’s starting idea, i.e. the statement that normative poetics makes it possible not only to transmit the authorities’ idea of the “Soviet man”, but to achieve its internalisation.
Impacts of El Niño southern oscillation on hedge strategies for Brazilian corn and soybean futures contracts
Authors: Ferreira George Lucas Máximo , Tonin Julyerme Matheus , Alves Alexandre Florindo
Published: March 2022

Abstract: Climate influences the variations in soybean and corn prices; thus, we assessed the relationship between the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) with soybean-to-corn price ratio to determine potential impacts on price risk management. The commercial areas of Passo Fundo (RS), Cascavel (PR), Maringá (PR), Uberlândia (Triângulo Mineiro), and Sorriso (MT) covered in the study were chosen according to the MAPA edaphoclimatic classification. To estimate the effectiveness and optimal hedge ratio, the static and generalized model by Myers and Thompson (1989), adapted by Lien and Tse (2000), was used to include the cointegration approach in the analysis. The innovation of this study is the inclusion of the climate variable ENSO in this hedging approach. The findings showed that ENSO, especially La Niña, affects soybean-to-corn price ratio and hedge strategies. These results highlight the need to expand the use of futures contracts to reduce the price risk during the occurrence of ENSO events.

Published: March 2022

Abstract The objective of this work was to identify microbial communities associated with the surfaces of alkali feldspars and to determine whether these microbes might be involved in the weathering of these rocks for agronomic benefit. Samples were taken from weathering profiles and soils developed on a syenite, considered as a raw material for agromineral production, located in the municipality of Triunfo, in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil. Molecular microbiological techniques (qPCR and 16S rRNA gene sequencing) were used, and data were interpreted by the analysis of variance, hierarchical cluster analysis, and principal coordinates analysis. In addition, scanning electron microscopy was used to image mineral surfaces. Similar bacterial communities were observed in all samples, showing that the bacteria found in soil are present at the earliest stages of rock weathering and are available to play a role in nutrient release. In particular, Actinobacteria and, within this phylum, Actinomycetales were proportionally more abundant than other taxa in rock-dominated soil samples, i.e., in thin soils on or between fractured or broken syenite. The analysis of rock dust used as a remineralizer, crushed with no further treatment, shows that Actinobacteria play a role in the early stages of weathering of feldspar-bearing rocks.

A pandemia da COVID-19 causada pelo vírus SARS-CoV-2 trouxe desafios adicionais ao Serviço de Alimentação e Nutrição (SAN), pois, além de atender as condições higiênicas sanitárias dos alimentos, as empresas agora precisam incorporar novas práticas que visem preservar a saúde das pessoas. Nesse contexto, esse estudo buscou realizar uma revisão da literatura sobre as recomendações técnicas de boas práticas de fabricação de alimentos relacionadas com a prevenção da COVID-19 e elaborar uma lista de verificações (check-list) para facilitar a identificação de falhas, avaliar risco de transmissão da COVID-19 nos serviços de alimentação e orientar as adaptações dos manuais de boas práticas de fabricação. Com base nas notas técnicas vigentes no Brasil e baseadas nas diretrizes da Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS), foi elaborado um questionário contendo 100 perguntas nas diversas categorias do setor de produção de alimentos. Dessa maneira, entendemos que medidas de biossegurança devem ser adotadas a partir da atualização dos manuais de boas práticas de fabricação nos serviços de alimentação, e, para apoiar essa ação, propomos a utilização do checklist em apêndice para identificar as inconformidades relacionadas a prevenção da COVID-19.
Two New Species of the Lycophyte Genus Selaginella (Selaginellaceae) from China, with Notes on the Phylogenetic Positions of Related Species
Authors: Huang Ling , Li Shu-Han , Dong Shi-Yong
Published: March 2022

Abstract— Two new species of lycophytes, Selaginella obovata and S. zhangii, were discovered in southeastern Yunnan, China. Selaginella obovata is characterized by the prostrate habit and relatively small size of plant, obovate median
leaves, and short, dorsiventral strobili, and is not apparently similar to any known species. Phylogenetic analyses of plastid sequences (rbcL, atpI, psbA) indicated that S. obovata is closely allied to S. bisulcata, which is also supported by spore morphology,
and that these two taxa together with S. pennata constitute a well-supported monophyletic group. Selaginella zhangii is comparable to S. rolandi-principis in their broad stems and shape and arrangement of vegetative leaves; but the former differs from the latter in its
prostrate habit and dorsiventral strobili. The results of phylogenetic analyses indicated that S. zhangii is allied to S. heterostachys in the S. heterostachys‐S. ciliaris clade, while S. rolandi-principis is distantly placed in the S. doederleinii‐S.
involvens clade. Finally, we provide comprehensive descriptions, photographs of living plants, line drawings, and scanning electron micrographs of spores to facilitate their recognition.
Investigating Phylogenetic Placement and Species-Level Relationships in a Recent Radiation of Mentzelia section Bartonia (Loasaceae) from the Mojave Desert
Authors: Cohen Dylan H. , Schenk John J.
Published: March 2022

Abstract— Understanding species level relationships is a central goal in systematic botany; however, complexes of closely related and morphologically similar species often pose considerable challenges to that goal. The North American west is home to many notable genera
that notoriously have difficult species complexes (e.g. Astragalus, Eriogonum, Penstemon). Mentzelia section Bartonia (Loasaceae), another example of a group with difficult species complexes, is a recently evolved and diverse clade that occurs across the
North American west. Phylogenetic studies have resolved many relationships across Mentzelia, but the relationships within a species complex of perennial, subshrub species that occurs in the Mojave Desert, Great Basin, and Colorado Plateau remains elusive. This arid-adapted clade, which
is referred to as the Mojave clade, has significant conservation implications due to three narrowly endemic species: Mentzelia polita and Mentzelia tiehmii are state listed, and Mentzelia leucophylla is federally listed. Species relationships within the Mojave clade are
not fully understood. Populations of Mentzelia oreophila from California and Nevada, for example, are not monophyletic. We generated restriction site associated DNA sequence data (RADSeq) to address evolutionary relationships in the Mojave clade. Our results corroborated previous studies
in continued recognition of Mentzelia polita, Mentzelia leucophylla, and Mentzelia tiehmii; however, Mentzelia oreophila was recovered in three clades that includes a California clade, a Nevada clade, and one with Mentzelia puberula. Incomplete lineage sorting
and hybridization might have generated conflicting phylogenetic signal between Mentzelia oreophila and Mentzelia puberula. Increasing population level sampling will aid in species delimitation and further help to understand how gene flow and/or hybridization is influencing population
level dynamics in the Mojave Desert.

Published: March 2022

Abstract— Justicieae is one of the largest tribes of Acanthaceae, composed of 2000 species distributed in 100 genera, with highest diversity in the neotropical region. Palynological studies containing several representatives of the tribe are rare, specially species
from Northeastern Brazil. The present study aims to differentiate species and evaluate palynological characters in the light of a phylogenetic hypothesis of Justicieae. Eighteen species belonging to six genera were analyzed. Pollen grains were acetolyzed, measured and photographed under light
microscopy (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Pollen grains are medium to very large in size, isopolar, planaperturate, subprolate, prolate to prolate spheroidal, and two-colporate to three-colporate, or with six pseudocolpi. The exine ornamentation is microreticulate to reticulate
with areolae between the apertures in most species. Some species present a cavea in the mesocolpium. The pollen morphology of Justicia chamaedryoides, J. congrua, J. glaziovii, J. thunbergioides, J. sphaerosperma, Pseuderanthemum congestum, and P. modestum are hereby described
for the first time. A new combination is also proposed, Thyrsacanthus angustissimus.

Seismic responses of an underground tunnel considering rock–tunnel interaction
Authors: Mei Xiancheng , Sheng Qian , Cui Zhen , Zhang Maochu , Chen Liujie
Published: March 2022

Existing earthquake damage reconnaissance reports indicate that many tunnels have suffered noticeable damage. During seismic excitation, ignoring the rock–concrete interaction may affect the accuracy of research results. In this study the influence of rock–concrete interaction on the response of a tunnel under seismic excitation was systemically investigated. A finite-difference method (FDM) model of the tunnel was constructed and full dynamic time history calculations were performed. The rock–tunnel interface was built using the FDM, with interface elements defined by a linear Coulomb shear strength criterion. The reliability of the numerical simulation of the interface was verified by comparisons with direct shear test results. Based on a real engineering case (Xianglushan water conveyance tunnel), two models with different rock–tunnel interactions were established and their seismic responses evaluated. The mechanical properties of the interface were compared. The seismic responses of the tunnel were assessed in terms of displacements, stresses and lining dynamic internal forces. The results indicated that rock–concrete interaction may have a significant effect on a tunnel's seismic response, and that effect has a certain pattern. The influences of the mechanical parameters of the interface on the seismic response of tunnels are complex and the stiffness of the interface plays a significant role.
A constitutive model for the simulation of temperature-, stress- and rate-dependent behaviour of frozen granular soils
Authors: Cudmani Roberto , Yan Wei , Schindler Ulrich
Published: March 2022

An elastic-viscoplastic model is developed to simulate the rate-, stress- and temperature-dependent mechanical behaviour of frozen soils under nearly monotonic shearing. The main characteristics of the behaviour of frozen soils are analysed by means of confined and unconfined creep and constant-strain-rate compression tests. The novel model approach extends an existing model proposed by R. Cudmani in 2006 to account for the influence of the confining pressure on mechanical behaviour and to differentiate between compressive and tensile strength and creep. After describing the model and determining its parameters, the model performance is assessed by comparing the results of experimental and numerical element tests. In spite of its simplicity, the proposed model can realistically capture essential features of the rate-, stress- and temperature-dependent behaviour of frozen soils observed in the laboratory, including quasi-monotonic confined and unconfined creep, compressive and tensile strength. A distinguishing feature of this model is the ability to predict creep failure and, related to it, the ‘lifetime’ of the frozen soil, which is the time at which creep failure starts. This novel constitutive model proves to be a powerful numerical tool for predicting the stability and evaluating the deformations of frozen soils in engineering applications.

Published: March 2022

The article presents the analysis results of the state and operation of road construction departments of Altai Krai at the beginning of virgin lands development in the region. The scientific relevance of such analysis is conditioned by the important role the road and transport network of the region had to fulfill in the task of sharp increase in grain production set by the party and government. With the beginning of virgin and fallow lands development Altai region faced the problem of fast and timely transportation of harvested crops. The analysis addresses the root cause of this problem by assessing the state of the district road departments, which were the main structural unit responsible for ensuring the proper functioning of the routes that passed through their territory. The study is based on twenty districts of Altai Krai based on the materials of the State Archives of Altai Krai. All categories of transport routes have been analyzed in terms of the quality of road surfaces and the percentage of each route has been determined; the condition and length of bridges have been assessed. Characteristics of the grade and quality of works performed on the roads are correlated with the availability of equipment, employees and their occupational distribution in the district road construction organizations. The study is the first attempt to generate accurate statistics of road departments in the Altai Territory. Many archive materials are being brought into scientific circulation for the first time.
Improving the Legal Regulation of Genomic Registration in the Context of Crime Prevention
Authors: Gribunov Oleg
Published: March 2022

Prevention of crimes, as well as their detection, their quality and timely investigation have always been a priority for the work of law enforcement bodies. One of the effective methods of counteracting crimes is crime detection and the criminal prosecution of perpetrators. At the same time, the law enforcement bodies do not always carry out crime investigation in a timely and comprehensive manner. The author presents framework measures of raising the quality of crime investigation through the improvement of, firstly, the mechanism of the legal regulation of genomic registration and, secondly, the forensic technical support of the detection, investigation and prevention of crimes in the context of three elements — legal basis, material and technical support, staffing. One of the effective methods of improving the clearance rate and prevention of crimes is the use of DNA-analysis and genotyposcopic expertise. In order to improve the quality of this expertise, the author has developed specific suggestions on amendments to the Federal Law «On State Genomic Registration in the Russian Federation» of December 3, 2008 № 242-ФЗ on a wider scope of persons for whom genomic registration is obligatory. The initiatives of scholars and practical workers regarding the introduction of DNA passports for citizens are briefly analyzed, and the international experience in this sphere is examined. The author also studied the Decrees of the President of the Russian Federation «On Developing Genomic Technologies in the Russian Federation» (together with the «Provision on the Council for the Implementation the Federal Research and Technical Program on the Development of Genetic Technologies in 2019–2027») of November 28, 2018 № 680, «On the Basics of the State Policy of the Russian Federation in Ensuring the Chemical and Biological Security until 2025 and Further Years» of March 11, 2019 № 97, which were implemented in the Federal Research and Technical Program of Developing Genetic Technologies in 2019–2027, approved by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of April 22, 2019 № 479. The author shares the opinion that obligatory genomic registration should be introduced for some categories of citizens as a factor of crime prevention.
Interethnic Relations: Organizational and Forensic Aspects of Modern Criminal Policy
Authors: Kuleshov Roman , Foigel Elena
Published: March 2022

The authors analyze legal regulation of interethnic relations in the sphere of criminal law and the problems of implementing legal norms in modern law enforcement activities. It is noted that the condition of interethnic relations in a multinational country determines a substantial part of the migration policy and has a great influence on the economic, political and criminogenic situation. The authors describe the modern condition of interethnic relations in the Russian Federation, trace the historical connection with the national question in the Russian Empire and the USSR, analyze the State Strategy of National Policy of the Russian Federation till 2025 approved by the Decree of the RF President of December 19, 2012 № 1666. It is shown that Russian legal regulation of interethnic relations lacks a unified framework of concepts and categories; for example, there are no clear boundaries between the concepts «ethnic», «national», «racial» and their derived categories. All of them are used in a chaotic manner with different mutual correlations. The article describes the contents of the compared concepts, determines their converging and differentiating features. The fundamental difference in the understanding of the concept of «national» in Russian and foreign legislation and law enforcement is stressed. The authors prove the necessity to unify terminology, bring examples from Russian court practice and the position of the European Court of Human Rights, establish the criminalistic significance of ethnic information. It is suggested that the specific framework of concepts and categories should be the basis for the development of practical instruments for using ethnic information about the participants of a crime event — a mechanism of practical implementation of the legal regulation of interethnic relations, and for determinig its goals, tasks, and key directions of work. Besides, the authors examine modern social interethnic situation in the area of identifying, investigating and detecting crimes.
Expediency as the Principle and Grounds for Decision-Making in Criminal Proceedings: Foreign Experience and the Prospects for Using it in Russia
Authors: Vilkova Tatiana , Maziuk Roman , Khokhryakov Maxim
Published: March 2022

The processes of the convergence and divergence of law in the era of globalization as well as the trend for establishing similar court proceedings in different countries determine the necessity of studying legal concepts still unknown in the Russian legislation but widely applied in other countries, and expediency is one of them. The goal of this research is to analyze Russian and foreign legislation from both modern and historical perspectives, to analyze the legal regulation of expediency in criminal proceedings, to determine its contents, to differentiate between expediency as a principle and as grounds for the decision to refuse the initiation of criminal proceedings or to terminate them, which is made by a specially authorized official or a state body, to present well-grounded suggestions for the improvement of Russian legislation and the practice of law enforcement. It is determined that expediency is recognized as a principle of criminal proceedings in a number of European states. It is shown that the principle of expediency does not contradict justice and is based on such characteristics of criminal procedure activities as effectiveness, optimality, promptness, procedural economy. At the same time, legislations of the UK, Germany, France and Switzerland provide for the discretionary powers of the prosecutor and other officials to refuse to initiate criminal proceedings, to refuse to bring charges or support them due to inexpediency. The authors show the advantages and disadvantages of making decisions on such grounds: the disadvantages include wide discretionary powers of the officials which could lead to the abuse of power in the absence of necessary guarantees (corruption-generating factor); the advantages are procedural economy, wide opportunities for officials and state bodies involved in the criminal process to use discretionary powers depending on the circumstances of each specific case. They argue that the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation should provide an opportunity for specially authorized officials and state bodies to refuse to initiate a criminal case or pursue criminal prosecution on the grounds of inexpediency.
Valor de marca del pisco chileno: aportes desde la región pisquera de Chile
Authors: Araya-Pizarro Sebastián
Published: March 2022

En un entorno globalizado y competitivo como el de la industria pisquera, es fundamental distinguir la oferta propia de la de otros competidores. En este sentido, la marca es un atributo de valor significativo que permite al consumidor identificar el origen del bien y a la empresa diferenciar sus productos y servicios en el mercado. El objetivo de esta investigación fue analizar el valor de marca del pisco chileno (el destilado más importante de Chile) en la principal zona pisquera del país: la Región de Coquimbo. Se elaboró un instrumento de medición, basado en el modelo multidimensional de valor de marca de Aaker (1991), que fue aplicado a una muestra probabilística de 254 consumidores del destilado. Los resultados mostraron que los factores con mayor y menor relevancia son de tipo comportamental: notoriedad y lealtad de marca, respectivamente.Esto devela un cliente cuya lealtad es mayormente cognitiva, que valora y reconoce las características del producto, pero no necesariamente adquiere la bebida (lealtad conductual). Además, el examen de las variables según el perfil del participante permitió advertir diferencias significativas, según sexo e ingresos (en la dimensión notoriedad); y según edad (en las dimensiones de calidad percibida y asociaciones de la marca). Se concluye que existen atributos determinantes del valor de marca para los consumidores, cuyo develamiento y gestión adecuada permitirían mejorar el posicionamiento y la competitividad del pisco chileno en el mercado.
Ecological interactions of nematophagous fungi and their potential use in tropical crops
Authors: Quevedo Adela , Magdama Freddy , Castro Jessenia , Vera-Morales Marcos
Published: March 2022

Nematophagous fungi can feed on nematodes under nutrient-poor conditions. They live in the soil and their study is important because of their possible use in the biocontrol of phytoparasitic nematodes. These fungi can be cultivated in the laboratory using different media and substrates, making them potential agents for agricultural use in tropical environments. The objective was to review recent scientific advances in the ecological interactions of nematophagous fungi and their prey, with emphasis on their use as biological controllers. Given the importance of their interactions in the soil, diversity, abundance, dispersal, and colonization of different types of habitats, these fungal microorganisms can be specialists or generalists in the predation of nematode populations in their various stages (egg, juvenile or adult). The different scientific advances and applications of predatory fungi in some tropical crops in Latin American countries are also briefly described. After these explorations, it is possible to conclude that the integrated application of microorganisms in the soil could improve the production of some cultivars by efficiently reducing nematode populations. In addition, it could improve the structure of soil trophic interactions, with environmentally benign treatments that reduce the use of chemical pesticides.

Background: Haemodialysis (HD) patients are subjected to bio-psychosocial stress in many ways even after successful hemodialysis session. Therefore, this study was designed to survey on relationship between knowledge and treatment satisfaction with psychological well-being among haemodialysis patients.Methods: This cross-sectional study included 100 HD patients who were referred to emergency dialysis unit, nephrology and transplant unit, National Hospital, Kandy during the year 2019. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire.Results: Mean age of this study group was 45.17 (13.6) years; two dominant etiologies of chronic renal failure were diabetic nephropathy and hypertension accounting for nearly 61% of the study population. Only 19% of patients presented with emotional suffering and 40% of patients worried about their disease condition. However, majority of the patients satisfied with nursing care and nurses’ co-operation while they are on HD treatment. Moreover, they confirmed nurses’ co-operation helped to reduce their stress level. Further, knowledge on HD compliance (p=0.000), satisfaction on nursing staff attitudes (p=0.001), satisfaction on nursing staff concern about the health issues (p=0.001) and worrying about the kidney disease condition (p=0.000) had statistically significant association with mental stress in this study cohort.Conclusions: The topic of stressors is very important among patients receiving dialysis, as these affect their psycho-social and physiological wellbeing. Thus, health care team is playing an important role in providing patients with effective psycho-social and physiological support.

Salmonella species commonly causes gastrointestinal infection in humans. Occasionally they lead to serious complications such as mycotic aneurysms which are rare but potentially fatal. Mortality is high without timely intervention. The clinical presentation is variable and early diagnosis requires a high degree of clinical alertness. Here, we reported a case of mycotic aneurysm secondary to Salmonella enteritidis infection. The case highlights the need to evaluate all elderly patients with non-typhoid Salmonella bacteremia for possible endovascular infections.

Published: March 2022

O estudo verificou se a participação das mulheres na gestão das organizações influencia o desempenho. Realizou-se uma pesquisa descritiva, documental e quantitativa a partir de uma amostra constituída por 228 companhias em 2011, 230 em 2012, 233 em 2013, 240 em 2014, 229 em 2015, 226 em 2016, 223 em 2017. O desempenho foi analisado por meio de quatro medidas. Duas são baseadas na contabilidade: índice de retorno sobre os ativos (ROA) e retorno sobre o patrimônio líquido (ROE); outras duas medidas baseadas no mercado: market-to-book (MTB) e Q de Tobin. Como proxies para a participação das mulheres na gestão, foram utilizadas quatro variáveis: 1) dummy para a existência de mulheres no CA; 2) dummy para a maioria de conselheiras mulheres; 3) percentual de mulheres no CA; 4) dummy para presidente do CA mulher. Os resultados mostraram uma variação no desempenho das empresas. Quanto à participação das mulheres na gestão, destaca-se que o número de empresas que possuíam mulheres aumentou; embora em menos de 4% das empresas as mulheres são a maioria nos conselhos. Identificou-se que o percentual médio de mulheres nos conselhos não ultrapassou 16% e, aproximadamente, 5% das empresas possuíam mulheres no cargo de presidente do conselho. Dentre as quatro variáveis que captavam a participação das mulheres na gestão, apenas a variável que capta a existência de mulheres no conselho foi significativa em relação ao MTB. Portanto, concluiu-se que, na amostra investigada, apenas o MTB é influenciado pela gestão feminina.

Este trabalho apresenta uma ferramenta de feedback, chamada de Principles to Leadership Valuation (PLV), e, por meio de uma pesquisa exploratória e qualitativa, traz a análise dos resultados de sua aplicação em uma instituição de ensino superior (IES). Para tanto, a solicitação de autoavaliação por parte dos coordenadores de curso e respostas de um formulário on-line de percepção da PLV foi a solução encontrada pela instituição que vivia o momento de isolamento social. O principal objetivo deste estudo foi apresentar a PLV como um agente capaz de contribuir para a efetiva aplicação do feedback em uma IES e gerar resultados que apontem o nível de maturidade profissional do avaliado e indiquem o comportamento desejado para o seu gestor. A partir dela, é possível obter relatórios sobre o perfil de liderança dos avaliados, considerando o seu nível de comprometimento e competência. As vantagens são: usabilidade, instantaneidade, minimização da subjetividade, sintetização dos indicadores-chave e parametrização para a conversa presencial. O momento de crise gerado pela pandemia colaborou para tornar a PLV um instrumento realista que considera as variáveis ambientais, as quais podem influenciar diretamente no comportamental das pessoas.
Desafios da afirmação da identidade feminina
Authors: Arnecke Silvia Valeska Goularte , Saraiva Juracy Assmann
Published: March 2022

O conceito de identidade tem sido objeto de estudo e de reflexão crítica de teóricos de diversas áreas do conhecimento, particularmente porque há, na contemporaneidade, uma crise do sujeito. Com base nos posicionamentos de Stuart Hall, de Zygmunt Bauman, e de Kathryn Woodward a respeito dessa problemática e de Paul Ricoeur acerca da concepção mimética da literatura, o presente artigo analisa alguns desafios que a mulher tem enfrentado para se autoafirmar e assumir o protagonismo de uma identidade marcada pelo gênero feminino. Nesse sentido, demonstra que a literatura corrobora para evidenciar o modo como questões socioculturais permeiam o cotidiano das mulheres, iluminando o conflito inerente à submissão feminina e exigindo que o leitor assuma uma posição em face do mundo ficcional. O artigo questiona, ainda, os motivos pelos quais mulheres continuam aprisionadas a valores machistas, consolidados historicamente, sem assumir a importância de seu papel social, e defende mudanças no comportamento feminino.
