Published: November 2024

Neutrophillic dermatoses comprise a range of conditions where the hallmark is histologic infiltrate of neutrophils. Ranging from skin disorders such as acute generalised exanthematous pustulosis or subcorneal pustulosis (Sneddon Wilkinson) which affect the epidermis, the neutrophilic infiltrate can affect the dermal portion such as in Neutrophillic urticaria, Sweet’s syndrome, or eccrine neutrophilic hidradenitis, or it can affect both epidermis and dermis such as in pyoderma gangrenosum. Many times the diagnosis of a neutrophilic dermatosis poses a challenge as the main differential are infectious diseases and a high degree of suspicion needed. Generally, the diagnosis is reached with clinical and dermatopathology correlation. We present the case of an 87-year-old woman with swollen red leg in whom the diagnosis posed a challenge

Authors: Dantas Gouveia Dalmo
Published: November 2024

A partir do século XVI, muitos africanos foram inseridos no Brasil na condição de coisa, sendo que foi constituída, na concepção do povo brasileiro, a ideia de que o preto e a sua descendência não têm valor. Este pensamento, muitas vezes, é desferidoespontaneamente. No entanto, o preto tem usado a religião de matriz africana para despontar a ancestralidade e rejeitar toda opressão sofrida. O presente artigo analisou como a comunidade de Aporá-Ba visualiza o Terreiro de Pai Foguinho, enquanto representante da religiosidade vinculada às religiões de matriz africana. Para tanto, utilizou-se a metodologia qualitativa com apoio do estudo de campo. A pesquisa revelou que os atos de intolerância religiosa não devem ser ignorados, pois neles se encontram o racismo estrutural. Na religião de matriz africana é presença marcante a ancestralidade do preto e direciona seus descendentes com a força para lutarem contra a repressão social, cultural, econômica.

Da Fala Egocêntrica como Fenômeno Argumentativo e Problematológico
Authors: Farias Silva Jameson Thiago , Michelan de Azevedo Isabel Cristina
Published: November 2024

O presente artigo propõe uma leitura do fenômeno da fala egocêntrica – tal como descrito por Lev Vigotski – como um fenômeno argumentativo e problematológico, embora mobilizado por um único locutor empírico. Esta investigação teórica parte do pressuposto de que não apenas a enunciação é polifônica, mas o é também a própria atividade psicológica implicada no ato de fala. A linguagem, nesta esteira, seria um instrumento de pensamento e o problema da relação pensamento-linguagem é o problema de considerar certas modalidades do discurso concreto, nomeadas de egocêntricas, como ferramentas para colocar problemas e encaminhá-los. Assim, partindo de uma concepção da clínica psicológica como um setting de fala egocêntrica e de pressupostos teóricos da Problematologia de Michel Meyer, pretende-se fornecer subsídios metodológicos tanto para a melhor compreensão do fenômeno linguístico, monologal, da fala egocêntrica, quanto das funções egocêntricas e problematizantes do discurso.

Published: November 2024

Zakat plays a fundamental role in wealth redistribution and social equity, with gold and silver holding central significance as benchmarks of wealth across Islamic history. This study explores both traditional and contemporary interpretations of zakat, focusing on how these metals have functioned as stable currencies, ensuring economic stability and serving as wealth purifiers. While classical scholarship emphasizes their importance, this research addresses the evolving challenges posed by modern financial innovations, such as digital gold, online gold storage, and gold-backed cryptocurrencies. These emerging assets introduce complexities like volatility, liquidity constraints, and the absence of standardized valuation frameworks, which challenge the application of traditional zakat principles. Through a comprehensive literature review, this study uncovers gaps in research related to zakat on digital financial assets, highlighting the need for clearer guidelines and updated jurisprudential rulings. It synthesizes both qualitative juristic analyses and quantitative insights into asset volatility to evaluate the applicability of zakat to these modern instruments. A comprehensive literature review identifies existing scholarly discussions on zakat for traditional wealth forms like gold and silver and examines the gap in research concerning digital financial assets. The review highlights divergent views within the Islamic scholarly community on the permissibility of cryptocurrencies for zakat, with calls for new fatwas and clearer regulations. This research underscores the importance of aligning zakat frameworks with modern financial realities to ensure their continued relevance. It suggests that Islamic finance institutions should develop secure platforms tailored for digital asset zakat collection, alongside formulating standardized valuation guidelines and engaging in public awareness campaigns. This study contributes to the evolving discourse on Islamic finance by addressing the regulatory and methodological gaps in zakat application to digital assets. Addressing these challenges could provides valuable insights for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners navigating the complexities of applying zakat in an increasingly digitized economy.

Exploring the Mediating Role of Financial Risk Tolerance between Heuristic Biases and Working Women Investors’ Investment Decisions
Authors: Srivastava Harshita , Moid Sana , Rushdi Naela Jamal
Published: November 2024

The increasing financial independence of working women has contributed to their growing interest in investment to enhance their wealth. Working women investors are prone to psychological biases and have a conservative approach to risk, which can affect their investment decisions (ID). The study explores the role of financial risk tolerance (FRT) as a mediator in controlling the link between heuristic biases and working women investors’ investment decisions. Three heuristic biases are investigated: representativeness, availability, and anchoring. A structured questionnaire has been used to procure data from 211 working women investors trading in the Indian stock market. PLS-SEM was used to determine the association between the constructs. According to the findings, representativeness has a positive impact on the women investors’ investment decisions as well as their financial risk tolerance, anchoring has a detrimental impact on working women investors’ investment decisions and their risk tolerance capacity, and availability positively influences women investors' risk tolerance. The ability to tolerate financial risk has a positive impact on the investment decisions of women investors. The results of the mediate study show that the risk tolerance ability of women investors partially mediates the interaction between heuristic biases and their investment decisions. This paper will assist women investors to become more aware of these heuristic biases and lessen their negative effects on their investment choices. Its further results in more precise evaluations of risk tolerance and, ultimately, more successful investment planning.

Published: November 2024

This communication reports about detection of metabolically active genes of interest cell free extract of actinomycetal isolates from Pond soil. The strain LMA4 previously identified as Microbacterium barkeri, based on biotyping as well as 16 s r RNA sequencing, was observed with moderate bioactivity against test strains of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The Actinomycetal strain was Gram positive, aerial profuse branching bearing rounded spores. The whole genome sequencing was carried using Next Generation Sequencing tools and techniques. The FASTA sequence received from sequencing farm had been subjected to BLASTn analysis and aligned with sequences of databse. The sequence similarity was checked considering percentage of identity, as inferred from online portal. The whole genome sequence of LMA4 had inferred about elution of antibiotic producing genes namely [i] Thiazole synthase protein, [ii] Indole-3-glycerol phosphate synthase Protein, [iii] Antibiotic synthesis MbtH protein, [iv] Antibiotic biosynthesis monooxygenase protein, [v] class II terpene cyclase protein and [vi] YcaO-like family protein in the sequence profile. The genes were identified, ORFs were predicted and more over conserved domain was spotted. The genes were structurally represented using modelling approaches and more so ligand based (target oriented) molecular simulation study had predicted affirmative interactions between receptor and ligand molecule. The receptors were WGS detected gene products, and the ligands were Sortase of Staphylococcus aureus and D-ala-ala ligase of Escherichia coli. The study may pave a way towards extracting the metabolites of interest and implementing as natural cost effective drugs.

Published: November 2024

Objective: To assess the association of Hyperuricemia with Ischemic Stroke
Methodology: This case-control study was carried out at the department of Medicine Nishtar 2 Tertiary Care Hospital in Multan from June 2023 to Dec 2023.  At the time of admission, the serum uric acid level was tested in addition to other standard laboratory tests. Patients' information was gathered using a pre-made proforma only after written informed permission was obtained from the individuals, their spouses, or relatives in the case of patients with aphasia or decreased awareness. Version 24 of the statistical program for the social sciences (SPSS) was used to analyze the data. A p-value of less than 0.05 and an OR greater than one were deemed statistically significant.
Results: In the current study, 60 patients were cases and 60 were healthy control. In cases there were 33 (55%) males and 27 (45%) females while in healthy control, the males were 30 (50%) while females were also 30 (50%). In patients with ischemic stroke, the frequency of hyperuricemia was 26 (43.33%), while in controls, it was 15 (25%). Compared to controls, ischemic stroke patients had a 3.11-fold increased incidence of hyperuricemia. Accordingly, hyperuricemia (p=0.002) is a substantial risk factor for ischemic stroke. In individuals aged 30 to 50, ischaemic stroke and hyperuricemia were significantly associated (p = 0.001). Additionally, ischaemic stroke patients had a 4.15-fold increased incidence of hyperuricemia compared to control subjects. On the other hand, there was no significant correlation (p = 0.29) between hyperuricemia and ischaemic stroke in the 51–70 age range. Additionally, there was a 2.1-fold increased incidence of hyperuricemia in ischaemic stroke patients.
Conclusion: Patients with ischemic stroke had a considerably greater prevalence of hyperuricemia (43.33%). Furthermore, those who have had an ischemic stroke are 3.11 times more likely to get hyperuricemia. Hyperuricemia may thus be looked at as an additional ischemic stroke risk factor. However, further study is required before regular uric acid levels may be advised.

Authors: Arroyo Julie , Dal Pozzo Augusto Neves , Ceretta Bruno José Queiroz , Peres Marly Netto
Published: November 2024

As chamadas leis de Rolland desempenham um papel central na estruturação e na compreensão do Direito Administrativo, que recebe influência francesa, como ocorre no Brasil. Recorrendo, principalmente, às doutrinas clássica e contemporânea, e empregando argumentos baseados na jurisprudência e na legislação, o texto analisa a abrangência da célebre construção teórica de Louis Rolland na dinâmica da França contemporânea. Os fundamentos apresentados conduzem a comparações inevitáveis com a realidade brasileira. Quanto à sua organização, o estudo evolui do plano teórico para o exame de situações concretas. Citam-se exemplos. Examinam-se e contrastam-se princípios. Conforme sustenta a autora, o regramento diz respeito também ao âmbito privado, em razão das numerosas entidades que, hoje, desempenham funções de serviço público. Na realidade, a reflexão sobre a abrangência das leis de Rolland demonstra, hoje, ser imperativa.

El principio de precaución y red natura 2000
Authors: Sánchez González Jennifer
Published: November 2024

El principio de precaución o cautela es uno de los pilares básicos para conservar la biodiversidad, y sobre él deben descansar las decisiones técnico-administrativas que se realicen para el desarrollo e implantación de la Directiva 92/43/CEE del Consejo, de 21 de mayo de 1992, relativa a la conservación de los hábitats naturales y de la fauna y flora silvestres, conocida como Directiva Hábitats, en todo el territorio de la Unión Europea. Sin este principio, detener la pérdida de biodiversidad y mantener en un estado de conservación favorable los hábitats y las especies recogidos en los anexos de las Directiva Hábitats y Directiva Aves, será un objetivo difícil de conseguir, sino imposible.
Da natureza contratual da autorização ferroviária prevista na Lei 14.273/2021 e seus impactos na transferência de titularidade mediante desapropriações e servidões administrativas
Authors: Justino de Oliveira Gustavo , Teixeira Moreira Matheus
Published: November 2024

O tema central do presente artigo é a utilização da autorização como contrato legítimo para transferência de titularidade em desapropriações e servidões administrativas no setor ferroviário. A doutrina tradicional tende a encarar o instituto da autorização como ato unilateral, discricionário e precário, praticado no exercício do poder de polícia, despido de natureza contratual para delegação de serviços públicos, como têm a concessão e a permissão. No entanto, a noção mais atual encara o mencionado instituto como legítimo contrato de adesão, inclusive já utilizado em diversos setores de infraestrutura, como telecomunicações e portuário, com base no art. 21, incisos XI e XII, da Constituição Federal. Para este estudo, será analisado o sistema ferroviário brasileiro a partir da conjugação de tradicionais instrumentos de intervenção e supressão da propriedade privada, como a servidão e a desapropriação, em razão da recente publicação do Novo Marco Legal das Ferrovias, instituído pela Lei 14.273/2021. A pesquisa metodológica concentra-se, principalmente, na revisão bibliográfica e na interpretação de normas jurídicas, da jurisprudência e de entendimentos doutrinários, além da análise de editais, contratos e documentos congêneres encontrados nos sítios eletrônicos de órgãos e entidades estatais.

A invalidação dos contratos administrativos: a perspectiva da LINDB absorvida pela nova Lei de Licitações e Contratos Administrativos
Authors: Tourinho Rita
Published: November 2024

Published: November 2024

In the modern business landscape, sustainable marketing strategies have become crucial for success. Companies are increasingly allocating substantial resources to these initiatives. While consumers expect businesses to adopt sustainable practices, their primary motivation remains fulfilling personal needs. This creates a gap between corporate sustainability efforts and consumer expectations. This study proposes a viable framework for sustainability strategies that businesses can implement to bridge this disconnect. Key findings include: First, sustainable marketing significantly enhances brand image development. Second, brand awareness plays a vital role in customer loyalty within the modern marketplace. Third, a strong brand image amplifies the appeal of sustainable purchasing intentions. Fourth, customer retention serves as a critical tool for boosting long-term purchase expectations. Fifth, elevating consumer expectations is essential for driving sustainable buying behaviors. Notably, sustainable marketing acts as an effective mediator between customer engagement and brand perception. Additionally, corporate social responsibility (CSR) strengthens the link between a company's reputation and sustainable purchase intentions. This research provides both a theoretical framework and practical recommendations for the modern business environment, emphasizing the importance of sustainable marketing campaigns as a precursor to organizational success
