Authors: Nguyen V.D.D. , Malinnikov V.A. , Trinh L.H.
Published: September 2024

The research is aimed at assessing drought impact, focusing on its gradual and long-term development and significant influencing the agriculture. Its appearing depends on various factors, including climatic conditions such as precipitation and temperature, as well as economic ones, such as population density and the state of irrigated land per capita. The authors emphasize the importance of using geographic information systems (GIS) at assessing drought vulnerability in conjunction with the analytical hierarchical process (AHP). Application of GIS enables spatial analysis of drought in the Dak Lak province, Vietnam. Eight key parameters were considered in the study, including climatic, geographic, and socio-economic characteristics such as annual and monthly precipitation, land use / land cover (LULC), terrain slope, normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), the same of the water (NDWI), the indicator of topographic wetness, and population density. The analytic hierarchical process (AHP) method is used to calculate the weight coefficients of each criterion based on pairwise comparisons. Analysis of the parameters’ thematic maps allows for making a drought vulnerability map. The research results indicate that 23 % of the Dak Lak province`s territory is prone to moderate drought. The map created on the topic provides extensive information on the severity of dry spell in the region, particularly in the context of agriculture. The results of this study may contribute to development of methods to minimize the adverse effects of drought, thereby potentially increasing crop yields and improving the quality of life for the population

Published: September 2024

Introduction: Subtle or gross structural changes of scalp, skull and its contents due to application of direct or indirect external force are known as head injuries. Head being the most vulnerable and prominent part of body, injuries to it cause major mortality and morbidity globally. This study focussed to find the pattern of traumatic head injuries in patients presented to Lumbini Medical College Teaching Hospital, Palpa, Nepal. Methods: The data was collected from 252 patients (164 males and 88 females) with head injuries attending Emergency or out-patient department of Neurosurgery of the institute. All patients with traumatic head injuries (scalp injury, skull fracture, intracranial haemorrhage and brain injury) were included in the study and brought dead patients and patients with non-traumatic brain lesions were excluded. Results: Among the various modes of head injuries, the most frequent was road traffic accidents accounting 125 (49.60%) cases and fall from height 108 (42.86%) cases was second to it followed by physical assault 12 (4.76%) and others 7(2.78%). Manner of injuries were unintentional in 238 (94.44%) of cases. Among males, intentional injuries were present in 5 (2.98%) cases and among females, 9 (10.72%) cases presented with intentional injuries. In 105 (41.67%) of the cases, head injuries were associated with injuries to the other body parts as well. Conclusion: The most common cause of head injury was found to be road traffic accident followed by fall from height. Intentional injuries were more common in females when compared to males.

Authors: Shrestha Rajesh , Lamichhane Ram , Sharma Bhaskker
Published: September 2024

Introduction: Intentional self harm is a potentially self injurious action with a non-fatal outcome for which there is evidence, either explicit or implicit, that the individual intended to kill himself or herself. Suicide is a fatal act of self-injury (self harm) undertaken with more or less conscious self destructive intent. There has been an increase in the number of patients presenting with attempted suicide in the emergency settings of hospitals. This study aimed to explore socio-demographic characteristics, pattern of attempts, psychiatric diagnosis, psychosocial and personality factors among survivors of suicide attempt presenting to a tertiary care hospital. Methods: The study included 100 survivors of intentional self harm registered over a period of six months visiting a tertiary care hospital. The cases directly presented to Psychiatry department  and were referred from medical and other departments for psychiatric evaluation. They underwent evaluation by consultant psychiatrist and received appropriate interventions. Results: Majority of the victims were female (73%), belonging to the age group of 20-40 years. The most common method of attempt was self poisoning with pesticides (65%) followed by hanging (16%) and overdose of drugs (7%). Most of the attempts (68%) were impulsive in nature. Mental illness was diagnosed in (65%) of the cases, mainly depressive disorder (51%), and personality disorder (10 %). Most of the attempts (67%) were triggered by psycho-social factors. Conclusion: The pattern shows predominance of female gender, young age group, a role of mental illness, impulsivity and psychosocial factors in intentional self harm.

Authors: Bajracharya Srishti , Bam Pratibha , Bajracharya Priyanka
Published: September 2024

Introduction: Adolescent girls face different physical conversions, sexual changes and psychological pressures associated with growth and maturity, menstruation being one of them. Menstruation is still clouded by taboos and socio-cultural restrictions resulting in ignorance of scientific facts and hygienic health practices. Since response to menstruation depends upon awareness and knowledge about issues, menstrual hygiene education has shown to be effective in improving health by developing good knowledge, attitude and practice among adolescent girls. Methods: An analytical study with one group pretest â€“ posttest design was carried out to assess the effectiveness of structured teaching program on menstrual hygiene among 100 adolescent school girls studying in a public school in Palpa. Pretested semi structured questionnaire was used to assess knowledge and practice whereas valid MAQ (Menstrual Attitude Questionnaire) was used for attitude. This was followed by structured teaching program consisting of information on menstruation, myths and hygiene. Then a posttest was conducted after a week to the same respondents. Results: The study resulted in statistically significant improvements (P<0.001) in total knowledge (63% to 66%), attitude (47% to 63%) and practice (43% to 49%) after implementation of the structured teaching program. There was positive correlation between knowledge and attitude scores (r=0.023), attitude and practice scores (r=0.026) and knowledge and practice scores (r=0.183). Conclusion: The structured teaching program is effective in improving knowledge, attitude and practice on menstrual hygiene among adolescent school girls. Thus, adding menstrual hygiene as part of curriculum may break the culture of silence.
Six-Minute Walk Test in Healthy Nepalese Young Adults Aged 18 to 25 Years: A Cross- Sectional Study
Authors: Chaudhary Shaligram , Koju Bibek , Joshi Lok Raj
Published: September 2024

Introduction: The six-minute walk test is a simple test used to assess the exercise capacity. Variability is noted in the six-minute walk distance in different populations. Obesity also affects the six-minute walk test results. The aims of the study were to examine the relationship between body mass index and post exercise oxygen saturation and to establish a reference equation for the six-minute walk distance in young adults. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 106 subjects of age 18-25 years. The participant walked as fast as possible on a flat surface for six minutes. After a six-minute walk test, oxygen saturation and the distance walked were recorded. Results: Body mass index was negatively correlated with oxygen saturation (r=-0.587,p<0.001). Mean six-minute walk distance for males was 584.43Â±23.71 m and for females 469.85Â±30.38 m (p<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed sex and height as independent predictors of six-minute walk distance. The contributions of sex and height were statistically significant and explained 87.3% variance in the six-minute walk distance. Conclusion: Although the correlation between body mass index and oxygen saturation was statistically significant, the oxygen saturation values were still within normal range. Sex and height were the most significant predictors of the six-minute walk distance.

Published: September 2024

To combat the global pandemic of Covid-19, the Government of Nepal declared a country wide lockdown on 24 March, 2020. The lockdown affected all the institutions, medical schools being no exception. 
To keep in pace with the academic calendar, most of the universities instructed their affiliated medical schools to start online classes for medical undergraduates. Kathmandu University which affiliates ten medical schools under its umbrella circulated a notice to start online classes. To facilitate this, the most important requisite is internet connection. A working device in the form of a laptop, desktop, or smartphone is needed to log in through the internet. After the lockdown, when all the medical schools closed, the students went home. We should not forget the fact that many students are from rural locality with no access to the internet at their home. The mobile internet data is costly and more data is consumed during video conferencing in online classes. The geographical remoteness further hinders the network coverage across the country.

The ongoing Corona Virus Disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic is in its height, the measures taken to control the spread of this pandemic is acute and harsh. With the increasing new cases every hour it has caused a panic among every individual. Economy of the countries are equally affected. However, the direct and indirect impactof this pandemic on gender related needs are least prioritized and discussed. Evidences so far reveal the mortality being proportionately higher in males.This fact may not remain the same in Nepalese context becausewomen are more vulnerable in this low-income country where limited resources are allotted to womenâ€™s health. Majority of the workforce at frontline health care are women in the form of nurses, midwives and female community health volunteers (FCHV). Government of Nepal has decided to mobilize FCHVs for COVID-19 response in the community and these FCHVs who provide services at ground levels are at occupational risk of acquiring the infection.

Beating the statistics: With a population of over a billion, high population density with overcrowding especially in metropolis and underdeveloped health infrastructure, the projections for corona virus disease (COVID-19) pandemic were not in favour of India. Most statistical models had predicted over 5 lakh cases and more than 38,000 deaths and warned that India must prepare for a tsunami of COVID-19 cases. The situation appeared to be grimmer given that the incidence of diabetes, hypertension and respiratory diseases due to tuberculosis andair pollution is higher amongst Indians which are known risk factors for severe disease and death due to COVID-19.
Gynecological Oncology Surgery During COVID-19 Pandemic: What We Should Know
Authors: Kayastha Suresh
Published: September 2024

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) that causes Corona Virus Disease -19 (COVID-19) is a novel virus and hence humans do not have any prior immunity to it. Every human being is susceptible to this viral infection and rapid spread worldwide made WHO declare it as a global pandemic. Cancer patients are even more vulnerable not only because they are immunocompromised by the disease process itself, but also due to potential effect of chemotherapy, radiotherapy along with substantial effect on their timing of treatment. Patients older than 65 years, and those with preexisting co-morbidities are considered more atrisk. Considering the increased chances of intensive care unit admission, need of mechanical ventilation and possible mortality, all cancer patients should be educated about preventive measures, personal protection, social distancing and isolation. Another possible impact of COVID-19 could be delays in initial evaluation, diagnosis and initiation of actual treatment which are independent risk factors for cancer related mortality. This is due to limited services provided at the health care facilities, lockdown effects, fear of being infectedand economic crisis.

Government of Nepal (GoN) imposed a nationwide lockdown on 24th March, 2020 with an effort to limit the spread of novel corona virus which is responsible for corona virus disease (COVID-19). COVID-19 Nepal: Preparedness and Response Plan (NPRP) was implicated on April 2020 which stated Sukraraj Infectious and Tropical Disease Hospital (STIDH) in the capital, Kathmandu has been designated by the GoN as the primary hospital along with Patan Hospital and the Armed Police Forces Hospital in the Kathmandu Valley. The Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP) had requested the 25 hub and satellite hospital networks across the country; designated for managing mass casualty events; to be ready with infection prevention and control measures, and critical care beds where available.
Hospitals with less than 50 beds viz community-based municipality hospitals were left feeble against the surge of the pandemic. Waiting for the aid and support from government was the only option for some hospitals that lacked resources to combat this invisible culprit of global pandemic. However, Nepal Korea Friendship Municipality Hospital (NKFMH) located in Thimi, Bhaktapur determined itself to fight against this pandemic withlimited resources. This hospital not only serves the local community but also patients coming from all over Province 3 due to government insurance facilities provided by this hospital. With interaction and support from the Hospital Director, Mayor of the municipality, Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA), Bhaktapur Red Cross, Hospital board, Hospital Staffs, Medical Team, Adminstration, Interpid and locals in the community prompt preparedness action plan was formulated through various meeting at different levels and acted upon.
Healthcare Workers and Burnout During COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Upadhyay Preeti
Published: September 2024

Have you ever felt stuck? Or rather unmotivated and unsatisfied at your work? Maybe you do not feel like being a doctor anymore, but the fear of what will you do after; scares you more. Or maybe, you do wish to continue your medical practices but feel rather tired and let down at most times. In either scenario, you are not alone.Several healthcare workers feel underappreciated and suffer from lack of enthusiasm for work, feelings of cynicism towards life and low sense of personal accomplishment, in short, they feel â€œBurnt outâ€.
Burnout is on the rise in medical fraternity. Established professionals, residents in training, to young medical school trainees beginning their careers in medicine, none can escape from the brunt of burnout. Long working hours and increasing burden of bureaucratic tasks make the medical profession a tedious one. Continued exposure to human suffering and death introduces cynicism towards life and its purpose. Constant need to becompassionate to patients and their family members require immense mental and emotional fortitude.However, with an increase in violence against the medical fraternity,[5] a typical doctor begins to question the sanctity of the profession and feels unappreciated.

Trial
Authors: Munshi Medha N. , Slyne Christine , Adam Atif , Conery Colin , Oladunjoye Adeolu , Neuwahl Simon , Wypij David , Toschi Elena
Published: September 2024

OBJECTIVE

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) use in older adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) has shown benefits. However, the impact of CGM use, coupled with simplified treatment regimens and personalized glycemic goals that are better suited for older patients with multiple comorbidities and hypoglycemia, is not known.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

Older adults (≥65 years) with T1D with hypoglycemia (two or more episodes of hypoglycemia [blood glucose <70 mg/dL for ≥20 min over 2 weeks]) who were CGM naïve or CGM users were randomized to intervention and control groups. The intervention consisted of the combined use of CGM with geriatric principles (i.e., adjusting goals based on overall health, and simplification of regimens based on CGM patterns and clinical characteristics) over 6 months. The control group received usual care by their endocrinologist. The primary end point was change in time when blood glucose was <70 mg/dL from baseline to 6 months. Cost-effectiveness was calculated using a health care sector perspective.

RESULTS

We randomized 131 participants (aged 71 ± 5 years; 21% ≥75 years old) to the intervention (n = 68; CGM users = 33) or the control (n = 63; CGM users = 40) group. The median change in hypoglycemia from baseline to 6 months was −2·6% in the intervention group and −0.3% in the control group (median difference, −2.3% [95% CI −3.7%, −1.3%]; P < 0.001). This improvement was seen in both CGM naïve (−2.8%; 95% CI −5.6%, −0.8%) and CGM users (−1.2%; 95% CI −2.7%, −0.1%). The HbA1c did not differ between the groups (7.5% vs 7.3%). The intervention was cost-effective (incremental cost-effectiveness ratio $71,623 per quality adjusted life-year).

CONCLUSIONS

In older adults with T1D and high risk of hypoglycemia, CGM use enhanced by geriatric principles can lower hypoglycemia without worsening glycemic control in a cost-effective fashion.

Authors: Maeda Yoshitaka , Oiwa Kosuke , Naoi Tameto , Morita Mitsuya , Mimura Toshiki , Kitayama Joji , Kawahira Hiroshi
Published: September 2024

Objective: To evaluate the acceptability of using a static wearable chair for patients requiring rehabilitation.
Methods: The acceptability of use of a static wearable chair during rehabilitation was assessed via static balance and subjective evaluation of 7 healthy subjects and 3 patients during standing training. Participants performed 1 standing task in free mode (in which the knee could bend freely) and 1 in support mode (in which the user could sit on the wearable chair with the knee slightly bent) for 3 min. For balance evaluation, the skeletal coordinates were measured. For subjective evaluation, a visual analogue scale questionnaire was administered before and after each task.
Results: Balance assessment revealed that patients had less head sway during support, whereas subjective evaluation showed that the device support created a positive psychological state in terms of stability, comfort, satisfaction, interest in usage, and motivation for rehabilitation. However, patients reported feeling strangeness, fear, or restraint during support.
Conclusion: The static wearable chair improved the static balance of 3 patients and created a more
positive psychological state. Use of the device is considered acceptable for use with rehabilitation patients. However, patients might feel strangeness, fear, and restraint during support. Familiarization with the static wearable chair may make it more acceptable among rehabilitation patients.

In the context of civilization advanced communities are enjoying a higher living of standard by using of more sophisticated technology, health facilities, well educational infrastructure settled economy, proper communication and also with other amenities. The Totos are a little known Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Group (PVTG), dwelling in the extreme northern part of West Bengal. It is the Indo-Bhutan border area of the eastern Himalayan region. They practice settled cultivation with a very low rate of production of maize, marua, cown etc. A very few of them also practice paddy cultivation on the hill slopes of their small plots of lands. They collect different types of fruits, roots, tubers, medicinal plants and other daily necessities from the nearest forest/jungle. They also graze their domestic animals on that forest. Many of them were earlier depended on Bhutan for their livelihood. At present, due to deforestation, land alienation, socio-economic marginalization, practice of primitive type of technology, poor communication, national boundaries etc, highly affected their socio-cultural, economic and political life. Particularly these issues have been discussed in this paper and efforts are being made to find out the main causes of obstacles towards their development and survival.
Impact of Extending the Shelf Life of the Meat on Public Health
Authors: FA* Shaltout
Published: September 2024

The shelf life of the meat and the meat products types is the storage time until the spoilage, which is a complex condition in which the combination of biological and physic chemical activities may interact and make the product unacceptable for the human consumption. A maximum acceptable microbial level and/or unacceptable off odor and off flavor identify the exact point of the spoilage, which is strictly dependent on the initial numbers and types of contaminating microorganisms, their growth, lipid oxidation, and autolytic enzymatic reactions. The Meat and the fish, due to their physic chemical characteristics, are excellent basic nutrients for microbial activity. The pH, the aw (activity water) and the high moisture values can support the growth of a wide variety of the microorganisms.

Este artigo problematiza os resultados da pesquisa pós-doutoral realizada em 2022/23, cujo objetivo geral consistiu em identificar as práticas pedagógicas dos/as professores/as do Ensino Religioso (ER) no município de Cariacica - ES, para verificar se a BNCC contribui para a docência da disciplina na perspectiva não confessional. A pesquisa teve como aporte teórico-metodológico discussões como a de Gatti et all (2019), sobre formação de professores, de Freitas (2018), sobre a visibilidade da disciplina, de Junqueira (2020) sobre o ensino religioso na BNCC, além das diretrizes e ordenamento legal a respeito do tema. A metodologia utilizada foi a da pesquisa exploratória, que contou com entrevistas semiestruturadas a professores/as da rede de ensino, como também a pesquisa bibliográfica que sustentou parte das discussões apresentadas. Como resultados da pesquisa destacamos a dificuldade que os/as docentes demonstraram em lecionar sobre a diversidade religiosa tanto pela formação acadêmica considerada insatisfatória para o que determina a disciplina, como também a dificuldade em falar sobre as religiões minoritárias sobretudo as de matrizes africanas tanto por desconhecimento como pelo racismo estrutural.

Deus disse: “Haja uma só Fé”. E houve o Monoteísmo
Authors: Gonçalves Ferreira Diego Augusto
Published: September 2024

Frente à equivocada interpretação científico-literal dos primeiros capítulos do livro de Gênesis, especialmente no que respeita às narrativas sobre a origem do mundo físico e do ser humano, controvertidamente identificada com uma teoria criacionista e contraposta ao evolucionismo, o presente artigo, intitulado E Deus disse: “Haja uma só Fé”. E houve o monoteísmo, objetiva compreender de que modo o poema inaugural da Bíblia constitui-se um credo javista para a restauração da fé monoteísta de Israel depois do exílio babilônico (587-538 a.C.). Afirmando a redação final da Torah na época pós-exílica, a pesquisa apresenta, no tópico E havia trevas, o contexto histórico-cultural politeísta babilônico que provoca a composição do relato israelita de Gn 1,1 - 2,4a; explora o conteúdo do poema da criação em paralelo à narrativa babilônica Enuma elish, no tópico E houve luz; e constata, no tópico E Deus viu que era bom, a natureza teológico-monolátrica da perícope bíblica investigada.
Análise da aula de Marie Curie (1867-1934) para ensinar densidade para crianças sob a ótica de Isaac Watts (1674-1748)
Authors: Derossi Ingrid Nunes , Freitas-Reis Ivoni
Published: September 2024

Resumo
A visão de Marie Curie sobre o ensino de ciências naturais era de que o contato com o laboratório era fundamental para o verdadeiro aprendizado e a compreensão dos fenômenos. Em 1907, em Paris, um grupo de estudiosos decidiu criar uma "cooperativa de ensino" a partir da influência de Marie Curie, onde cada pai-cientista seria responsável por uma disciplina e os alunos assistiriam a uma aula por dia. Este artigo realiza um estudo detalhado sobre as aulas de física com a temática de densidade ministradas por Marie Curie, utilizando como fonte de dados as anotações da aluna Isabelle Chavannes a partir dos métodos descritos no livro "The Improvement of the Mind" de Isaac Watts, publicado em 1741, obra relevante e utilizada por outros nomes de referência da época como Michael Faraday (1791-1867).Foi possível perceber a preocupação da educadora com a assimilação do conhecimento e que esse se desse de maneira sólida, duradoura e contextualizada, trazendo em sua prática docente características que se espera de um bom educador, como o cuidado com a linguagem científica, a semiose, a busca pela evolução dos saberes, a contextualização e a dialética.

Abstract
Marie Curie's vision of teaching natural sciences was that contact with the laboratory was fundamental for true learning and understanding of phenomena. In 1907, in Paris, a group of scholars decided to create a "teaching cooperative" under the influence of Marie Curie, where each scientist-parent would be responsible for a discipline and the students would attend one class per day. This article conducts a detailed study on the physics classes with the theme of density taught by Marie Curie, using as a data source the notes of the student Isabelle Chavannes based on the methods described in the book "The Improvement of the Mind" by Isaac Watts, published in 1741, a relevant work used by other renowned names of the time such as Michael Faraday (1791-1867). It was possible to perceive the educator's concern with the assimilation of knowledge and that it should occur in a solid, lasting and contextualized manner, bringing in her teaching practice characteristics that are expected of a good educator, such as care with scientific language, semiosis, the search for the evolution of knowledge, contextualization and dialectics.

ABSTRACT
 
Since the 20th century, the study of the History of Science for science education has been discussed. Researchers on this subject defend historical approaches as a means of contextualizing and humanizing science teaching. The aim of this study was therefore to map productions on the subject of the History of Science in relation to Chemistry Teaching, with a focus on teacher training, in the 2010-2020 editions of ENEQ, 2011-2021 editions of ENPEC and 2010-2020 editions of BDTD. The method chosen was a bibliographic survey using key words such as History of Science, initial teacher training and History of Chemistry. A total of 43 publications were found. The papers were analyzed using Content Analysis, from which five categories emerged: 1) Teacher Training Program; 2) Initial teacher training; 3) Continuing teacher training; 4) Conceptions of practicing teachers; 5) Curriculum analysis. For the ENPEC, a sixth category was added, the literature review. The results show that the use of History of Science in the classroom is still little discussed and that it is extremely necessary to include History of Science in teacher training.

Neste trabalho, busca-se, como objetivo, analisar os dispositivos textuais e enunciativos concernentes ao plano de texto, à responsabilidade enunciativa e aos conectores argumentativos, evidenciado a orientação argumentativa empreendida pelo participante, em O amargo sabor da castanha, artigo de opinião finalista da Olimpíada de Língua Portuguesa. Para isso, a pesquisa filiou-se teoricamente à Análise Textual dos Discursos (Adam, 2011, 2019) em consonância a estudos enunciativos (Rabatel, 2016, 2021; Passeggi et al. 2010, entre outros). Metodologicamente, tratou-se de uma análise de cunho interpretativista e viés qualitativo. Como resultados, percebeu-se que, concernente ao plano de texto, notou-se que ele pode ser visto como fixo, uma vez que seguiu a estrutura padrão do artigo de opinião, contendo título, autoria, introdução, desenvolvimento, conclusão e dados da escola e da professora orientadora. Em relação à responsabilidade enunciativa, notaram-se movimentos de assunção, com categorias como índice de pessoas, lexemas avaliativos e modalidades, e de mediação, com o gerenciamento das vozes de moradores locais e de um provérbio. No entanto, quando se averigua o texto por completo, pode-se ver que a assunção é predominante. Acerca dos conectores argumentativos, nota-se que são empregados marcando movimentos argumentativos de marcação e explicação dos argumentos, bem como de contra-argumentação forte.

REDES SOCIAIS E CHOQUE DE OPINIÕES
Authors: Aparecida Paula da Costa Braga Marilene , Tinoco Cabral Ana Lúcia
Published: September 2024

Este trabalho tem por objetivo apresentar o desenvolvimento de uma atividade direcionada para estudantes do segundo ano do Ensino Médio cujo foco é o uso de estratégias de polidez para gerenciar a divergência de opiniões nas redes sociais. Buscando uma reflexão acerca da polidez linguística como um valor cultural importante nas interações sociais e na vivência cidadã, a base teórica é da Pragmática, especificamente, os estudos da polidez. As análises focalizam a identificação de impolidez por parte dos alunos e a sugestão de estratégias de polidez. Os resultados mostram que a atenuação estritamente pragmática e a cortesia positiva foram as estratégias mais comumente empregadas pelos estudantes para a construção de um ambiente virtual harmonioso frente aos pontos de vista, por vezes, antagônicos presentes nas interações das redes sociais.
O cuidado de si no Primeiro Alcibíades de Platão: perspectivas foucaultianas
Authors: Céspede Cupello Priscilla
Published: September 2024

Este trabalho tem o objetivo de discutir a prática do cuidado de si no diálogo Primeiro Alcibíades de Platão, valendo-se da perspectiva do filósofo francês Michel Foucault (1926-1984) no seu curso intitulado Le Courage de la vérité ministrado no Collège de France. A análise do diálogo Primeiro Alcibíades de Platão é importante para podermos perceber como ocorria na prática o cuidado de si exercido por Sócrates com seus contemporâneos na polis ateniense. Esse diálogo ilustra bem a concepção de cuidado relacionado com o cuidado da alma, ou seja, com aquilo que se é verdadeiramente, já que a vida corpórea é marcada por um período da existência em que alma ganha a propriedade do corpo.
Michel Foucault e sua viagem greco-latina
Authors: De Souza Pedro
Published: September 2024

Neste artigo, proponho-me a analisar o jeito como Michel Foucault opera seu trabalho historiográfico em suas aulas e conferências. Devo, no entanto, me ocupar apenas de alguns fragmentos das várias aulas do curso A hermenêutica do sujeito, levantando os atos pontuais de enunciação em que o filósofo transmite para seus ouvintes uma certa ambiência filosófica greco-latina. A questão central deste trabalho diz respeito ao modo de Michel Foucault relatar a história da filosofia antiga a partir de procedimentos de enunciação que temporalizam no presente o período histórico de que trata seus proferimentos. Devo por atenção não tanto ao conteúdo temático, mas à maneira de dizer com que Foucault envolve discursivamente sua audiência na paisagem greco-latina que toma como ponto de referencia do tempo presente em que ele se situa.

arte médica à luz de reflexividade, relações e cuidado
Authors: Franzini Tibaldeo Roberto
Published: September 2024

O presente artigo visa analisar o pensamento de Hans Jonas acerca da profissão médica, para esclarecer a afinidade com as chamadas “Medical Humanities” atuais. Isso levará até uma segunda vertente, que é a individuação de três conceitos-chave, os de “reflexividade”, “relação” e “cuidado”, que serão analisados à luz das propostas filosóficas de John Dewey, Donald Schön, Seyla Benhabib e Joan Tronto. Tentar-se-á esclarecer que essas noções são relevantes para a redefinição da profissão médica na época atual, no sentido que oferecem uma ferramenta teórico-prática capaz, por um lado, de descontruir hábitos culturais problemáticos, como o reducionismo tecnicista moderno, e, por outro lado, de contribuir para a reformulação da prática médica em sentido mais relacional, engajado, atencioso e sensível a circunstâncias específicas.
ROLE OF CYTOKINE STORM IN COVID-19 SEVERITY AND ITS TREATMENT MANAGEMENT
Authors: Abbas Dr. Mohammad
Published: September 2024

The human body has defense systems called the innate and adaptive immune systems. These systems include cells that produce substances called cytokines, like interleukins and interferons, to help the body respond to infections and other challenges. Normally, there's a mild stability among the body's inflammatory and anti-inflammatory responses, regulated by complex mechanisms. When this balance is disrupted, it can trigger a cascade of reactions leading to a massive release of cytokines. This can cause a self-amplifying cycle, leading to severe damage, organ failure, or even death. Disturbances can be triggered not only by infections but also by genetic conditions or certain medical treatments that affect the immune system. Understanding and treating these situations are challenging because of the intricate interactions within the immune systems. There's still much to learn, and effective treatments are limited at the moment.
FUTURE OF NEUROPROTECTIVE THERAPIES IN THE NICU FOR PREMATURE INFANTS: A SUMMARY
Authors: Rizvi Dr. Syed Ibrahim
Published: September 2024

Moderate to severe neuro-developmental delays, behavioral problems, and mental health disorders are more common in premature infants, and they can have a lasting detrimental effect on their quality of life. Furthermore, babies that are born with a super low weight, less than 1000g, are more likely to have long-term problems that will cost more in the long run. Consequently, it is more effective to involve parents at an early stage so that they can create a setting that is both neuroprotective and developmentally beneficial for their baby. Studies have primarily shown short-term benefits for prenatal steroid therapy, but minimal effect of these therapies on long time for the development of neuronal development. Despite this, magnesium and antenatal steroids have become conventional medications for preterm new-borns. Developing better neuromonitoring technologies to optimize trial recruitment, more accurate biomarkers to measure treatment response, and more effective neuroprotective and neurorestorative medicines is critical.

Vindicatio defense of rights to land plots: modern scientific, theoretical and practical peculiarities
Authors: Zaiets O. I.
Published: September 2024

The article is devoted to the analysis of theoretical approaches and judicial practice of vindicatio defense of rights to land plots. Reforming social relations requires periodic rethinking of legal categories and the practice of their application. Therefore, periodic comparison of scientific positions in the field of land rights defense with judicial practice in this field is extremely necessary. The research is focused on highlighting the issues of correlation of vindicatio defense with other remedies of defense: restitution, condictio, recognition of land rights, recognition of acts of public authorities as invalid, negatorio method of defense, etc. A special feature and problem of the defense of rights to land is the correctness of choosing a vindicatio or negatorio defense, since modern judicial practice has made its corrections in this matter. In this vein, the article pays special attention to defense in case of arbitrary occupation of land. The only form of defense in case of arbitrary occupation of land plots, which is directly indicated in the legislation, is a judicial one. At the same time, the remedy of defense is not specified in the law, which created a scientific discussion on this matter outlined in the article. Taking into account the systematic conclusions of judicial practice regarding the cases of choosing vindicatio or negatorio defense, arbitrary occupation of a land plot is an indirect temporary illegal possession. In the case of violations of legal ownership by such a temporary illegal owner of a plot of land, both the owner and the temporary legal user must apply negatorio defense. Summing up, we can conclude that modern judicial practice has mainly determined the ways of defensing land rights. In not all cases, such approaches are supported by legal science. But at the same time, it brings some certainty to the regulation of land relations and creates a relatively stable basis for the defense of land rights.
