Authors: Moura Francisco Nunes de Sousa , Leite Raquel Crosara Maia
Published: August 2023

Considerando os desafios de aprendizado da população brasileira quanto as ações de Educação em Saúde (ES), objetiva-se, neste trabalho, investigar os escritos governamentais e de estudiosos sobre a ES, analisando as suas idealizações quanto aos conceitos e às proposições desta temática no decorrer da história. Para a consolidação desta pesquisa qualitativa, efetuou-se um levantamento bibliográfico do tipo revisão narrativa, com o intento de conhecer as publicações sobre essa temática nos vieses de conceitos e históricos da ES, sendo que os dados foram obtidos a partir da busca em diversas bases de consulta. Os trabalhos mostram que a inserção de temas da Saúde na Educação tem centralidade biomédica, focada no ciclo saúde-doença, bem como os termos adotados ao longo do tempo vão desde um viés sanitarista até uma abordagem pautada na vida do sujeito. Assim, observa-se distinções entre a centralidade dos assuntos de ES e os conceitos adotados na atualidade.

Após a nova definição de saúde elaborada pela Organização Mundial da Saúde, que definiu a mesma como um estado de completo bem-estar físico, mental e social, e não apenas como a ausência de doença ou enfermidade, diversos eventos internacionais e nacionais científicos foram promovidos visando a qualidade de vida, onde elementos como o meio ambiente e seu reflexo socioambiental foram contemplados como fatores condicionantes da saúde. No Brasil, documentos orientadores e normativos educacionais incorporaram os temas meio ambiente e saúde como fundamentais no processo de ensino, onde os mesmos devem ser contextualizados e abordados de forma transversal. Sendo assim, o presente estudo buscou diagnosticar o conhecimento de estudantes concluintes do Ensino Fundamental, bem como de professores sobre a relação “Meio ambiente e Saúde”, em quatro escolas municipais de Alegrete/RS, selecionadas aleatoriamente, que, no entanto, se localizassem em contextos socioambientais distintos. A coleta de dados foi realizada a partir da aplicação de questionários semiestruturados, adaptados ao método de pesquisa de survey, onde para as respostas abertas-dissertativas foi realizada a análise de conteúdo. A metodologia utilizada oportunizou evidenciar possíveis potencialidades e fragilidades em relação à articulação da temática “Meio ambiente e Saúde” decorrentes de seus contextos distintos, assim como, revelar o entendimento dos docentes, considerando sua transversalidade. A partir dos resultados observados, podemos concluir que o ensino de meio ambiente e saúde ocorre, entretanto, de forma fragmentada e limitada, onde determinados aspectos são privilegiados devido a confusão de concepções observadas sobre a temática.

A ausência e insuficiência de recursos educacionais que possam ser empregados para a abordagem da doença de Chagas caracterizam uma das dimensões da negligência que este agravo enfrenta. Em contrapartida, obras japonesas como animês e mangás estão cada vez mais presente na cultura ocidental e reúnem um conjunto de representações sociais sobre temas socialmente agudos. Frente a essa questão, realizamos a análise da obra In Hand, uma live action japonesa, cujo episódio é baseado no tema da doença de Chagas. O estudo apoiou-se em referenciais dos campos análise fílmica, análise e estatuto da imagem, processo saúde-doença, estigma, sociologia do corpo, representações sociais e ensino de Ciências. Emergiram questões referentes ao estereótipo do paciente, transmissão da doença e visão sobre a ciência e o cientista. Ressaltamos a potencialidade deste recurso para práticas educacionais embora o material não tenha sido concebido para este fim. Contudo, é necessário que o mediador da prática educativa tenha um olhar apurado para trabalhar distorções e incorreções científicas que podem surgir, bem como contextualizar a obra ao público engajado na prática

Authors:   Asian Trade Association, Ling Chen
Published: August 2023

Purpose – Chinese corporate venture capital has been particularly active in the Internet sector, with Tencent gradually expanding its business ecosystem through corporate venture capital activities. Therefore, this paper chooses Tencent as the case study object to discuss the influence of venture capital on the value creation of the platform-type business ecosystem, hoping to provide reference for China’s corporate venture capital practices. Design/Methodology/Approach – This paper takes Tencent’s corporate venture capital investment data from 2011 to 2022 as the research object, and uses case analysis, financial index analysis, and event analysis to demonstrate whether there is influence between corporate venture capital and enterprise value. Findings – Through the analysis of the investment motivation, investment mode, and investment projects of Tencent Group’s venture capital, the research results show that corporate venture capital can indeed have an impact on the strategic and financial values of enterprises. Research Implications – There are few studies on the venture capital activities of Internet platform enterprises in the existing literature. Based on two dimensions of strategic and financial value, this paper explores the value creation function of venture capital in the platform business ecosystem, and the research results have reference significance for the venture capital activities of other enterprises.

This gives an indication that the availability of operational work tools helps employees improve performance. Thus, the role of the leadership is expected to provide the maximum possible facilities.
FPGA Implementation of Embedded Floating-Point Core with Microarchitectural Support
Authors: Pitchai Saravanan , Pitchai Senthil
Published: August 2023

Floating point arithmetic is a tedious implementation in General Purpose
Processors (GPP) and Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC).
ASICs don’t afford the modifications of instruction and algorithms in
floating point applications. GPP takes over the floating computations in
a separate circuit called a Floating Point Unit (FPU), it makes the FPU
consume more power and chip area. This paper presents the FPU which
incorporates its hardware circuitry for microarchitectural configuration
in FPGA. The proposed FPU provides the RAM blocks for storing the
instructions and data alongside floating point arithmetic circuits.
Compared to conventional implementation, Fused Multiply-Add (FMA)
instruction is implemented with a minimum adder, multiplier, and
shifters resources. An instruction stored in RAM selects and controls
the floating point operations such as addition, subtraction,
multiplication, and Multiply Accumulate (MAC) operations. Pipelined FPU
is implemented as a simple microarchitecture in Stratix III FPGA at the
maximum operating frequency of 463 MHz; proposed FPU shares some hard
floating point circuits in adder multiplier data paths.

Institutional Theory and Hybrid Accounting and Control Systems
Authors: Agarwal Nishant , Krishnan Ranjani , Weiler Luke
Published: August 2023

We identify several manifestations of hybridity in accounting and control systems. Hybridity in the form of multiple accounting systems and actual or postural conformity to institutional expectations can enable organizations to overtly, but sometimes ostensibly, combine multiple logics to appease stakeholders. Hybridity increases costs and the risk of internal inconsistency. Consequently, firms decouple some practices to provide an impression of conformance. We offer a typology of three forms of hybridity—compliance, complete decoupling, and partial decoupling—and illustrate using examples from accounting hybridization choices regarding corporate social responsibility (CSR), diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), and international reporting standards. We empirically examine hybridity in the context of the voluntary adoption of international financial reporting standards (IFRS). We find that instrumental pressures are associated with adoption through compliance; however, social pressures are likely to be placated through complete decoupling, whereby firms voluntarily adopt multiple systems in policy, but not in practice.

Published: August 2023

Objective: To investigate the long-term (>12 months) effectiveness of conservative management for lateral epicondylitis.Data Sources: PubMed and Embase databases were searched for relevant studies from inception to March 2023. Study Selection and Data Extraction: Only English-written randomized controlled trial (RCT) with data download as well as follow up ≥12 months were acceptable. Raw data were extracted into a predefined worksheet, and quality analysis was conducted based on the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool version 2 (RoB2).Data Synthesis: The standardized mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. Results: Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) could significantly relive pain for lateral epicondylitis patients in the long term (SMD: −0.19, 95% CI [−0.36, −0.02]); however, there was no significant difference between ESWT and control groups in long-term function outcome (SMD: 0.24, 95% CI [−0.02, −0.49]). No significant difference could be observed between (1) exercise and control groups in pain (SMD: −0.21, 95% CI [−0.60, 0.18]) or function (SMD: 0.06, 95% CI [−0.11, 0.23]), (2) corticosteroids and placebo groups in pain (SMD: 0.70, 95% CI [−0.43, 1.82]) or function (SMD: −0.02, 95% CI [−0.36, 0.31]), and (3) platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in pain (SMD: −0.30, 95% CI [−0.85, 0.25]) and function (SMD: −0.08, 95% CI [−0.78, 0.62]).Conclusion: The present conventional conservative management for lateral epicondylitis, with the exceptionof ESWT, a lack adequate evidence supporting their long-term effectiveness.
The Interplay of Identity and Resilience: Unleashing Inner Strength in the Face of Adversity
Authors: Sevilla-Vallejo Santiago
Published: August 2023

Identity and resilience are two intertwined concepts that shape the essence of human existence. Identity encompasses the unique combination of characteristics, beliefs, values, and experiences that define an individual or a group. Resilience, on the other hand, refers to the ability to bounce back from adversity, overcome challenges, and adapt to difficult circumstances. The interplay between identity and resilience is profound, as one’s identity serves as a source of strength and motivation in the face of adversity. This essay explores the intricate relationship between identity and resilience, highlighting their significance in personal growth and societal development.
Nurses’ Moral Distress in the Time of Covid-19 Needs to be Further Explored and Addressed
Authors: Voultsos Polychronis
Published: August 2023

“Moral distress” is a term used to describe a phenomenon that is of great clinical significance and may have disastrous consequences not only for nurses (or other healthcare professionals), but also for patients. It was first defined by Jameton as “constraint distress”, namely, “the psychological distress of being in a situation in which one is constrained from acting on what one knows to be right.” Later, the definition of moral distress expanded to include not only the so-called “constraint distress”, but also the so-called “uncertainty distress” that compromises the values and moral integrity of the person who is experiencing it. At any rate, in the literature there have been offered various and overlapping accounts of moral distress. Moral distress is inherent in nursing. Not surprisingly, during the COVID-19 pandemic the risk of moral distress among ICU nurses is high. The unprecedented and unique pandemic nursing care circumstances revealed a new broader concept of nurse moral distress that is integrated, with an intrapersonal dimension and an interpersonal dimension. There have been proposed various interventions for mitigating moral distress among nurses working in COVID-19 healthcare settings. Among these interventions are included nurses’ self-reflection to be aware of their own moral distress, nurses’ autobiographic narration of memories and emotions, creating conditions promoting’ spirituality, addressing newly appeared institutional shortcomings in mental healthcare settings, and training nurses in ethical issues and dilemmas. Exploring nurses’ moral distress in the COVID-19 context and developing interventions to address it are ongoing. Starting points for future research emerged from this literature review.

Cekaman salinitas berdampak pada gangguan fisiologis dan menyebabkan penurunan produktivitas tanaman padi. Aplikasi bahan organik pada media tanam dapat dijadikan sebagai solusi untuk memperbaiki sifat-sifat tanah sehingga sesuai untuk media tumbuh tanaman. Selain itu, ketepatan umur bibit dapat menjadi kunci keberhasilan budidaya padi pada kondisi salinitas. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengkaji pertumbuhan dan hasil padi pada kondisi salin menggunakan penambahan bahan organik dan perbedaan umur bibit. Penelitian menggunakan RAL dua faktor, faktor pertama yaitu media tanam organik berupa pupuk kandang sapi, sekam bakar, kompos jerami, dan Azzolla pinnata, sedangkan faktor kedua yaitu umur bibit berupa 21 hari setelah semai (HSS) dan 28 HSS. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa media tanam organik berpengaruh nyata terhadap tinggi tanaman 8 MST, jumlah anakan 6 MST, panjang akar 6 MST, bobot kering akar 6 MST, dan panjang malai. Kombinasi media tanam organik dan umur bibit berpengaruh nyata terhadap bobot kering tajuk 6 MST. Pupuk kandang sapi, arang sekam, dan kompos jerami menghasilkan tinggi tanaman, jumlah anakan, bobot kering akar, panjang akar, bobot kering tajuk, dan panjang malai dibandingkan Azolla pinnata. Kombinasi pupuk kandang sapi dengan umur bibit 21 HSS menghasilkan bobot kering tajuk saat 6 MST tertinggi, sedangkan kombinasi Azolla pinnata dengan umur bibit 21 HSS dan 28 HSS menghasilkan bobot kering tajuk terendah dibandingkan perlakuan lainnya. Kesimpulan yang diperoleh pada penelitian yakni penggunaan media tanam organik berupa pupuk kandang sapi merupakan bahan organik yang efektif terhadap beberapa parameter pertumbuhan dan hasil, serta penggunaan umur bibit 21 HSS menghasilkan pertumbuhan tanaman yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan penggunaan umur bibit 28 HSS.

Banana ‘Cavendish’ and avocado are grouped into climacteric fruits and are perishable in nature after harvest. The facts that both fruits are harvested when they are still green make difficulties in detecting fruit maturities. This occurs because the harvest criteria are carried out physically, where fruits with the same physical criteria may have different levels of physiological maturity. Thermal image (TI) is a non-invasive, non-contact and non-destructive technology used to determine the thermal properties and features of various objects, including fruits. This study aimed to analyze the various levels of fruit maturities of banana ‘Cavendish’ and avocado fruits with the thermal image method. The results showed that (1) thermal image could distinguish the level of maturity, both the level of maturity between each hand on ‘Cavendish’ banana bunch and the bananas in the ripe and unripe phases; (2) the mature fruit of avocado had a lower temperature than the immature one, but when the fruit was getting ripe, the mature fruit had a higher temperature than immature fruit. Thus, it can be stated that the fruit body temperature radiation represented by the thermal image of both fruits have the opportunity to be used as a method of detecting the level of maturity in banana ‘Cavendish’ and avocado fruits.

Hawar daun bakteri (HDB) merupakan penyakit yang menyerang tanaman padi dan disebabkan oleh bakteri Xanthomonas oryzae.Selama ini petani menanggulangi penyakit HDB ini dengan cara  menyemprotkan bakterisida,  pergiliran tanaman yang bukan inang patogen, dan menanam varietas tahan penyakit. Akan tetapi, pengendalian tersebut belum memberikan hasil yang maksimal, karena keragaman strain bakteri Xanthomonas oryzae. Pemberian bakterisida ini masih belum bisa menekan pertumbuhan bakteri sepenuhnya melainkan, hanya bisa memperlambat laju pertumbuhan bakteri Xanthomonas oryzae dan kemungkinan beresiko membunuh bakteri yang menguntungkan. Oleh karena itu, perlu dilakukan upaya untuk mengendalikan bakteri Xanthomonas oryzae dengan mempertimbangkan bakteriofag sebagai agen biokontrol untuk menginfeksi bakteri Xanthomonas oryzae. Metode untuk mengisolasi bakteriofag Xanthomonas oryzae  diawali dengan  pengambilan sampel tanah di lahan sawah dengan cara transek sampling, isolasi, purifikasi, dan propagasi bakteriofag. Pengujian stabilitas bakteriofag berfungsi untuk mengetahui kekuatan partikel bakteriofag dapat bertahan terhadap pH asam dan basa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 3 sampel bakteriofag yang berhasil diisolasi yaitu K1 (Kecandran 1), K2 (Kecandran 2), dan K3  (Kecandran 3). Hasil uji stabilitas bakteriofag terhadap pH menunjukan ketiga sampel diperoleh titer bakteriofag stabil pada pH 7 dan pH 9, sedangkan pada pH 2 dan pH 5 bakteriofag cenderung mengalami penurunan titer dan menunjukkan tidak mampu bertahan pada kondisi asam. Dari ketiga sampel tersebut, pada pH 12 menunjukkan adanya penurunan titer yang mengakibatkan sebagian besar partikel bakteriofag tidak tahan terhadap kondisi basa.

European Economy and Institutional Liberalism: Post-War Reconstruction of Ukraine
Authors: Papastamou Andreas
Published: August 2023

Institutional liberalism, despite the strong criticisms it has received, has emerged as an important hermeneutic theory, especially in the periods of Post-War Reconstruction. The intense activity of the World Bank, the IMF, the EBRD, the UNDP, the European Investment Bank, the BSIC, but also of individual states, Britain, Italy, Poland, and others, in direct cooperation and coordination with international and European organizations for the reconstruction of Ukraine, confirms the explanatory value of institutional liberalism, since the policies of international and European organizations strengthen future expectations, build partnerships and useful connections between actors, and create incentives for further actions. Against the realist version of international relations, where states behave arbitrarily, the logic of post-war reconstruction comes to affirm the social utility of institutional liberalism, with hope for a society of reconciliation and cooperation. European economic integration, a historical product of a long process of cooperation and development, offers, once again, the model of post-war reconstruction.
Need for Health and Prevention through Fitness Sports
Authors: Tokarski Walter , Tosounidis Antonis , Zarotis Georgios F.
Published: August 2023

Health is at the top of the social value hierarchies in western industrialized countries. It enables people to actively participate in social processes. In the course of industrialization, humans have been formally educated to be sedentary. The trend towards passivity and predominantly sedentary activities during working hours has resulted in an increase in health problems in the chronic-degenerative field. Curative medicine is reaching its limits with these diseases. In order to achieve an improvement in the health situation, it is necessary to make personal lifestyles more health oriented. The aim of this study is to provide a comprehensive inventory of the need for health and the prevention through fitness sports in today's society, in order to create recommendations for action. The methodology used in this study was a review of the relevant literature. In analysing various research findings, it was discovered that essential to health promotion is preventive orientation and turning towards health instead of focusing on disease. The concept of health promotion complements the previously dominant concept of disease prevention, with the goal of increased prevention and active mobilization of all health-supporting influencing factors. The importance of health promotion is emphasized in the sense of moving away from a perspective of health education and prevention oriented only to pathogenesis and to risks and risk factors. Health promotion includes all strategies and measures that positively influence health and this in turn also includes prevention in all its stages as well as disease treatment. There is sufficient evidence that exercise and sport have positive effects on health and well-being; this goes as far as living longer, but at least leads to a better quality of life in old age. Prevention through exercise and sport therefore needs to be brought more into awareness, at all levels: among politicians, among employers and employees, among families, teachers, and caregivers, among younger and older people. Modern fitness sports can play an important and central role in this context for the future. Fitness facilities represent ideal venues for prevention in this regard. One of the most striking features of the fitness market is the permanent development and renewal of fitness sport and its framework conditions - and thus of sport in general. Last but not least, this also sets lifestyle standards that influence value schemes and health behaviour: health, body behaviour and prevention.

La Dirofilariosis, es una enfermedad zoonótica de distribución mundial transmitida por mosquitos de género Aedes, Anopheles y Culex, a animales y humanos. El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar la prevalencia del gusano del corazón Dirofilaria immitis (Leidy, 1856) en el albergue “El perro feliz” del cantón Sucre, Ecuador durante el año 2021 diagnosticada por el método de gota gruesa. Se realizó un estudio tipo descriptivo, y se efectuó un muestreo de 100 perros aparentemente sanos durante los meses de septiembre y octubre del 2020. Se utilizó el método de gota gruesa con tinción de Wright, para la observación microscópica de la morfología parasitaria. Los datos obtenidos se analizaron a través del método porcentual para determinar el porcentaje de animales positivos y la prueba de ꭓ2 (Chi-cuadrado) de independencia al 5% de significancia para identificar la relación entre las variables (edad, sexo, grupo genético, color de pelaje y peso). Se hallaron treinta y seis animales positivos representando una prevalencia de 36% de D. immitis en el lugar de estudio. Se comprobó que el comportamiento del parásito no guarda ningún tipo de relación con las variables en estudio; por ello, y se concluye que, se puede trasmitir la enfermedad a los perros sin distinción de sexo, edad, grupo genético, color de pelaje y peso. En este estudio se describe, por primera vez la seropositividad a D. immitis en una población canina del cantón Sucre lo que representa una amenaza potencial para la salud pública; por lo tanto, es necesario se realicen más estudios que permitan determinar la incidencia de la enfermedad en los hospedadores y su impacto en humanos.

El ciclo de vida de los cestodos tetrafílidos es complejo, con larvas plerocercoides que pueden utilizar peces teleósteos como segundo hospedador intermediario uhospedador paraténico, en los cuales pueden presentar una diversidad de larvas plerocercoides. El objetivo de este trabajo es la caracterización morfológica de los plerocercoides de tetrafílidos en Trichiurus lepturus Linnaeus, 1758 de la costa del estado de Río de Janeiro, Brasil. En julio de 2018, se adquirieron 33 especímenes de T. lepturus de pescadores profesionales, capturados cerca del archipiélago de Cagarras (23°1'52"S, 43º11'56"O), estado de Río de Janeiro, Brasil. Los hospedadores fueron pesados, medidos y se realizaron necropsias con microscopio estereoscópico para la recolección de los plerocercoides. Los especímenes recolectados fueron fijados y preparados siguiendo técnicas helmintológicas tradicionales. Los estudios morfológicos y morfométricos de los parásitos se realizaron considerando el tamaño, la forma del cuerpo y las características del escólex y los botridios. Se identificaron cuatro morfotipos de plerocercoides: el Morfotipo I corresponde al género Phoreiobothrium Linton, 1889, el Morfotipo II a Triloculatum Caira & Jensen, 2009, y el Morfotipo IV al género Anthobothrium van Beneden, 1850. El Morfotipo III pertenece a Rhinebothrium Linton, 1889, Caulobothrium Baer, 1849 o Rhabdotobothrium Euzet, 1953. La riqueza morfológica de los plerocercoides en T. lepturus señala la importancia ecológica de este hospedador para el ciclo de vida de los tetrafílidos en la costa del estado de Río de Janeiro. También se propuso una clave de identificación para los morfotipos de plerocercoides de T. lepturus.

Rekonstruksi Bermazhab Masyarakat Desa Gintungreja Kec. Gandrungmangu Kab. Cilacap Berbasis Pesantren
Authors: Umam Khoerul , Faturahman Afik
Published: August 2023

Nahdlatul Ulama merupakan salah satu organisasi Islam terbesar di Indonesia. Dalam menjalankan hukum islam (fikih) organisasi tersebut menggunakan pendapat empat mazhab, yaitu mazhab Hanafi, Maliki, Syafi’i, dan Hambali (meskipun lebih condong ke mazhab syafi’i). Akan tetapi berbeda dengan realitas yang ada di desa Gintungreja Kecamatan Gandrungmangu Kabupaten Cilacap. Di daerah tersebut umat muslim yang masuk ke dalam organisasi Nahdlatul Ulama hanya menggunakan pendapat mazhab Syafi’i dan mengabaikan pendapat mazhab yang lain. Hal tersebut tentu tidak sesuai dengan prinsip Nahdlatul Ulama pada umumnya. Akibatnya, banyak kesulitan yang terjadi karena hanya berpatok satu mazhab saja dalam bidang muamalah. Melihat hal tersebut, penulis berupaya melakukan rekonstruksi bermazhab masyarakat desa Gintungreja kecamatan Gandrungmangu Kabupaten Cilacap berbasis pondok pesantren. Langkah pertama yang dilakukan adalah observasi kondisi masyarakat, langkah kedua adalah pelaksanaan yang meliputi identifikasi komponen, identifikasi indikator, dan pembangunan kembali (rekonstruksi) bermazhab. Langkah ketiga adalah evaluasi, dan langkah yang terakhir adalah pelaporan. Setelah dilakukan kegiatan pengabdian, hasilnya masyarakat dapat merasakan kemanfaatan dan kemudahan dalam melakukan kegiatan muamalah karena tidak hanya bersumber pada mazhab syafi’i saja akan tetapi menggunakan pendapat empat mazhab dan menerapkan salah satu pendapat keempat mazhab tersebut dalam bidang muamalah yang paling sesuai dengan kondisi masyarakat dan paling banyak memberikan kemanfaatan kepada masyarakat.
Regadío y desarrollo agrícola en Portugal: repercusiones de la construcción de presas en el Alentejo (1958-2022)

Desde el siglo XVII, el regadío se apunta como una solución para asentar población en el Alentejo debido al aumento de la producción agrícola y la consecuente reforma agraria. Sin embargo, solo desde mediados del siglo XX se produjo un crecimiento de las zonas de regadío. Después de más de seis décadas, este trabajo estudia el impacto de la construcción de la presa de Maranhão, Avis, Alentejo cruzando los objetivos fijados con la respectiva evolución demográfica, económica y social. Del análisis de distintas series estadísticas se concluye que la mayoría de los objetivos no se alcanzaron. Avis es hoy un territorio despoblado, con bajos índices de desarrollo y una estructura agraria latifundista. Además, se ha producido una expansión de los monocultivos intensivos, poniendo en peligro la sostenibilidad medioambiental regional. Esta reflexión basada en el análisis histórico es fundamental en un momento en que se anuncia la construcción de nuevas presas.

With the increasing concentration of people and services in urban centers, there is a growing prevalence of issues related to mobility, accessibility, housing, access to urban infrastructure, safety, leisure, tourism, sanitation, and sustainability. In response to the need for sustainability, these urban centers integrate information and communication technologies to optimize and assist in decision-making for public service management. As smart cities integrate the social, physical, and digital systems, they enable a participatory model of government management. Touristic cities, which include smart city indicators and integrate sustainability and technology throughout the tourism value chain, create sustainable development based on local limitations and capacities while enhancing the integration of technology throughout the tourism destination’s value proposition. Thus, this paper aims to analyze the municipality of Foz do Iguaçu as a smart tourism destination by applying the DTI-BR model. As a result, the application of the DTI-BR model in Foz do Iguaçu showed evidence that the municipality needs to improve its indicators to be considered a smart tourism destination, which implies the need for improvements in public-private partnerships for the municipality’s development as a smart city.

The implementation of green supply chain management (GSCM) in developing countries is represented by less advanced economic growth than in industrialized countries. It is reasonable to presume that different nations may have different constructs influencing GSCM adoption. Even though, there is a gap in the literature regarding the execution of GSCM in developing nations like Pakistan. This demonstrates the necessity and importance of undertaking empirical research on the variables influencing GSCM adoption from the perspective of Pakistan small and medium enterprises (SMEs). To close the gap in GSCM research, this study tries to pinpoint the variables influencing GSCM adoption among Pakistan SMEs. SPSS software version 23 is used to apply statistical techniques to the primarily obtained data. The survey form was administrated to 600 target respondents from all administrative levels. There were 210 complete and usable survey forms, showing a response rate of around 35%. First, the reliability of all questions is checked; second, we use multiple regression analysis to identify which factors are affecting the implementation of green supply chain management in Pakistani SMEs. The findings suggest that environmental factors and organizational factors have a great influence on managers’ intention to adopt GSCM. Meanwhile, technological factors have no significant impact on managers’ intentions to adopt GSCM.

Glyceryl laurate (GL) is a natural or synthetic surfactant with antiviral and antimicrobial activity and is not only effective in common colds or flu, but also against swine flu, herpes simplex, shingles, or chronic fatigue. The study aimed to formulate the GL granules as a semi-product for the compression of tablets and evaluate the influence of the substitution of sucrose laurate (Ryoto®) with sucrose ester (Sisterna®) in the composition of the granules and the effect of granule size on the quality of the compressed tablets. Four types of granules, varying in grain size and the type of additional surfactant, were prepared by melt granulation. The traditional pharmacopoeia tests were used to assess tablets’ quality. The granule size significantly affected all evaluated parameters: hardness, uniformity of mass, friability, and disintegration. The replacement of sucrose laurate with sucrose ester caused a slight decrease in tablet strength and a shortening of disintegration. However, it did not significantly impact friability and uniformity of mass. For this reason, the excipient, sucrose ester, can be evaluated as an adequate replacement in the composition of GL tablets.

Employees’ motivation is, probably, the biggest and most profound concern of managers today. Considering the constant changes of the marketplace, along with the attrition rates nowadays, we can easily understand why this matter is of high importance. But how did the study of motivation evolve throughout time and what stage has it reached today? From Maslow and the Pyramid of Needs to Herzberg and the Two-Factor Theory, McGregor and the X and Y Theories or McClelland and his Need for Achievement Theory, the matter of motivation has long been debated and researched. The present scientific paper aims to analyze how today’s employees in knowledge-based organizations find job satisfaction, what helps them feel motivated and the way in which the management and the organizations can influence the level of job satisfaction and motivation for the employees working in the IT industry. Generations evolve and so do their expectations of what a workplace should look like. For the employees working in the IT industry, the autonomy, and the learning opportunities they could have while doing their job are at least as important, or perhaps more important than their level of satisfaction with the financial benefits offered by companies. The research methodology of the present paper is based on literature review, and the objectives are related to describing the knowledge-based organizations and how they differ from other types of organizations, analyze the evolution of motivation theories over time, presenting the IT industry and its specifics for the motivation of employees in this field.

Published: August 2023

Objetivo: documentar la importancia cultural y manejo de plantas con énfasis en las especies alimenticias de comunidades ch’oles de Chiapas, México. Metodología: enfoque etnoagroecológico, se aplicaron herramientas metodológicas participativas y análisis mixto de la información. Resultados: indican grupos de plantas que se consumen con mayor frecuencia, lo que evidencia su arraigo en la cultura alimentaria de estos pueblos. Los criterios de manejo en el HF evidencian dos prácticas ejecutadas por las familias: el manejo ex situ e in situ. En la primera se registran principalmente las plantas cultivadas (40.1%), la segunda enfatiza cuatro niveles de labores agrícolas, recolección (8.4%), tolerancia (12.1%), fomento (10.9%) y protección (28.6%); en este sentido, la intensidad de manejo (IM) reconoció especies con intervalos de 0.2129 + 0.6239. Limitaciones: el periodo de Covid-19 limitó las últimas visitas de convivencia a las UPF que se contemplaba originalmente. Conclusiones: el componente vegetal, que se maneja en el huerto familiar, constituye un elemento básico que define un sistema alimentario sostenible; en este sentido, junto a la valoración de prácticas de estos grupos sociales, la agricultura familiar puede estar apuntando a construir fundamentos que expliquen motivos partícipes en la domesticación de plantas alimenticias en Mesoamérica.
