This pilot study is part of an initiative project dedicated to studying the professional mobility of Russian IT specialists. The relevance of the project is due to the problems of forming an adequate understanding of IT graduates’ professional mobility strategies, since such representations guide professional development from the very beginning of a career. An objective view of these strategies contributes to the successful adaptation and socialization of novice IT professionals in the information technology field. The scientific substantiation of methodological and methodical approaches to the study of IT graduates’ perceptions of professional mobility strategies, considered in the totality of objective (socio-structural, activity) and subjective (personal-motivational) factors. At the empirical level, methods for studying ideas about mobility strategies have been developed and tested. The conclusions about the peculiarities of graduate students’ perceptions of IT specialists’ professional mobility strategies are concretized.

Authors:   Kemerovo State University, Tsigichko Elena A.
Published: September 2023

During childhood and adolescence, cognitive processes play a key role in children’s development. Their inten-sity and effectiveness are directly related to the cognitive characteristics of individuals, which are a set of ele-ments, including: memory, attention, speed of thought reactions, imagination, speech, the ability to reason logi-cally, perceive information with the senses. The aim of the present study is to identify the peculiarities of cogni-tive processes of younger adolescents with different levels of development of nonverbal intelligence. The in-terpretations of the relevant concepts in psychological research are given. The results of the study of memory and attention parameters in young adolescent children with different levels of development of nonverbal intel-ligence are analyzed. Significant differences in the volumes of visual mediated, short-term and long-term memory, auditory mediated memory, as well as in the processes of switching and distributing attention in the general sample of subjects of the selected category are determined. Statistically reliable differences were ob-tained according to the results of the study of the peculiarities of cognitive processes of younger adolescents with different levels of nonverbal intelligence development taking into account the respondents’ gender.

Authors:   Russian State University of Justice, Bondarev Viktor G. , Tsyplakova Ekaterina P. ,   Russian State University of Justice
Published: September 2023

The concept of justice can be used to address various issues such as resource allocation, social welfare, and the promotion of economic equality. In this article, through the prism of an interdisciplinary approach and con-ceptual analysis, justice is considered as a complex category that has application in a variety of scientific disci-plines. Approaches to understanding justice in political philosophy, sociology and economics are analyzed. Conclusion dwells upon the fact that justice, as a complex category, is of great importance both for understand-ing social relations and for developing policies and programs aimed at achieving equality and well-being in society. It emphasizes the importance of taking into account the diversity of approaches to the definition and implementation of justice in different fields and the need to use an interdisciplinary approach for a more com-plete and comprehensive understanding of this category.
Russian “Christian Sociology” on the Positivist Theory of Progress
Authors:   Amur State University, Prokazin Viktor V.
Published: September 2023

The article examines the views of the representatives of the so-called Russian “Christian sociology” – V.S. Solovyov, S.N. Bulgakov, N.A. Berdyaev, and S.L. Frank – regarding the positivist theory of progress. The rele-vance of such consideration is conditioned, firstly, by the ideological processes taking place in modern Russian society related to the formulation of national ideology, and secondly, by the need to deepen and systematize the ideas about the formation of national sociological knowledge. “Christian Sociology” from the standpoint of social theology proves the methodological, factual, logical and ethical failure of positivist concepts of progres-sive social development and its elements. The inability of positivist sociology and the theory of progress to be a general theory of society and to foresee the future is emphasized. The factual, logical and ethical inconsistency of the proposed ideals and criteria of progress, as well as the contradiction in the substantiation of the subject and boundaries of progress are noted.
Prólogo [del libro: Tejiendo diálogos. Reflexiones contemporáneas sobre la expresión y el sentido]
Authors: González Pérez Carlos
Published: September 2023

Peirce, Foucault, Magariños, permiten evidenciar la necesidad de considerar a los procesos discursivos de manera amplia y de manera compleja. Algunos de estos aspectos aparecen en los artículos contenidos en este libro, en el tratamiento investigativo, se sostiene una de las primeras afirmaciones: toda producción discursiva implica la creación de sentido. Ese proceso, en las páginas que siguen, se encuentra plasmado en: la espacialidad y en cómo los existentes/reales condicionan los espacios de relaciones (coexistencia entre distintos elementos físicos y conceptuales contenidos en el espacio y su interacción); en las complejidades de la investigación artística y sus problemáticas; en la innovación, la productividad y el diseño desde la complejidad; en la expresión y el sentido de la transestética y las sensibilidades inestables (vinculadas a algunos aspectos de la Pandemia); en los videojuegos orientados al aprendizaje y el desarrollo de mundos virtuales; en la desimperialización en programas de formación postdoctoral; en la complejidad de la comunicación de la actividad actoral dentro del dispositivo teatral; en las reflexiones sobre la epistemología del dispositivo foucaultiano; en los artefactos como estrategia para catalizar complejidad en sociosistemas; en la intervención urbana efímera (confrontada con la imagen oficial); en las expresiones e imágenes disidentes contra la violencia de género, tanto como en la interseccionalidad de género; en los discursos de odio, presentes en redes sociales virtuales y medios de comunicación con una fuerza que apabulla y en los procesos formativos de artistas visuales y la reelaboración del sentido estético, como en la valoración e interrelaciones del arte con la educación, la ciencia y la tecnología. Podemos enunciar estos fenómenos y procesos por la enriquecedora oportunidad y privilegio de acceder a estos textos de manera previa. Los aportes que reúnen estos trabajos son inmensos y valiosos, no sólo porque se desarrollan en perspectivas de complejidad, puestas en relación con la problemática de generar sentido, sino porque además se posicionan en tópicos de una vigencia absoluta, donde radica una necesidad urgente de respuestas y explicaciones.

Authors:   Korea Univ. Institute of Educational Research, KIM YEONGTYE , KIM MINHO
Published: September 2023

We aimed to interpret the 10 Ayurveda experts’ experiences through Van Mannon's hermeneutic phenomenology. After interviewing the research participants and analyzing 162 meaningful statements in 9 themes, we organized the 9 themes into 3 categories: the contexts of Ayurvedic experiences, the contents of Ayurvedic experiences, and the educational meanings of Ayurvedic experiences. The 10 research participants participated in the Ayurveda program to heal their bodies and minds, which were the bottom of their lives, and to prepare for a second life as counselors. The participants of this study learned the theory of Ayurveda, changed their diet and lifestyle, and furthermore, awakened to a self-directed life. The educational meanings of the Ayurvedic experiences were found as following: 'discovery of ways to live healthy', 'improving the quality of life', and 'expansion of consciousness'. This study implied that Ayurveda will be helpful to educational growth of all people who pursue health as well as Ayurvedic experts in education and counseling.
The Moderated Mediation Effect of Attention Problems through Parental Attachment between Neuroticism and Executive Function Difficulties in Late Childhood
Authors:   Korea Univ. Institute of Educational Research, Lee Min Kyung
Published: September 2023

This study aimed to examine whether attention problems due to neuroticism have a significant effect on executive function difficulties in late childhood, and whether this effect can differ according to parental attachment. Using the Child Panel 12th(5th graders in 2019) and 13th(6th graders in 2020) data, this study analyzed the mediating effect of attention problems between neuroticism and executive function difficulties(SPSS process macro number 4) and the moderation of this mediating effect by parental attachment(number 14). The results are as follows: attention problems had a significant mediating effect between neuroticism and executive function difficulties, and this mediating effect tended to decrease while secure paternal attachment increased, with this effect not significant for children with the most secure paternal attachment(about 27% of the participants). The mediating effect of attention problems, however, was not different according to maternal attachment. Based on these results, this study discussed interventions that help form secure paternal attachment in order to alleviate the negative effect of attention problems on executive function, due to neuroticism in late childhood.
Drought mending: Experimenting with drought in suburban southern California
Authors: Zarate Salvador
Published: September 2023

This article explores the politics of producing knowledge about drought in a suburban region of southern California: Orange County. Based on nine months of ethnographic research with the assistant specialists that keep the Loma Ridge Global Change Experiment (LRGCE) station running, the article demonstrates how the station, which studies microbial communities and wildfire effects on the local ecology, simply cannot produce the necessary data without these workers' and specialists' expertise and efforts. More than an examination of how drought research happens, this article interrogates how the LRGCE, situated on the Santa Ana mountains and on the ancestral land of the Acjachemen and Tongva peoples, is part of a regime of scientific knowledge production tied to land-use claims. Rather than focus on the science that is produced into valued research products through occupation of Loma Ridge, this article focuses on the forms of repair, tinkering, and maintenance that are near-daily necessities for maintaining the conditions necessary to pull drought knowledge from Loma Ridge and that reveal the various openings where science and land occupation is anything but natural, exposing the relations of settler colonial occupation. Centered on a theory of "mending," this article provides a window into drought's political economy; in particular, it foregrounds the complex relationships between drought and the settler colonial mode of domination that structures southern California's suburbs and the production of scientific knowledge on native lands.

Published: September 2023

Aim

The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of the diagnostic criteria for determining the origin of outflow tract ventricular arrhythmia (OTVA) and develop an ECG algorithm to predict its origin.

Method

We analyzed the ECGs of 100 patients with OTVA who underwent successful ablation. The QRS complex was measured during sinus rhythm and ventricular arrhythmia. After the ECG algorithm was developed, it was validated in an additional 100 patients from two different hospitals.

Results

In this retrospective study, among the parameters without restrictions in the transition lead, the V2S/V3R index (AUC = 0.96) was significantly better in predicting ventricular arrhythmia originating from the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT). Further, the larger initial r wave surface area (ISA) in V1 and V2 (AUC = 0.06) was significantly better in predicting ventricular arrhythmias originating from the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT). Among the parameters with the transition lead in V3, the V2S/V3R index (AUC = 0.82) was significantly better in predicting VAs originating from the RVOT. On the contrary, the V3 R-wave deflection interval (AUC = 0.19) was significantly better in predicting ventricular arrhythmias originating from the LVOT. The algorithm combining the V2S/V3R index and the larger ISA in V1 and V2 could predict OTVA origin with an accuracy of 95.00%, a sensitivity of 87.18%, a specificity of 100.00%, a positive predictive value (PPV) of 100.00%, and a negative predictive value (NPV) of 92.42%. In the validation study, the algorithm exhibited excellent accuracy (95.00%) and AUC (AUC = 0.95), with a sensitivity of 94.12%, a specificity of 95.45%, a PPV of 91.43%, and an NPV of 96.92%.

Conclusion

Our developed algorithm can reliably predict OTVA origin without restrictions in the transition lead.

The Impact of Cancel Culture on Politics and International Relations
Authors: Deriglazova L. V. , Pogorelskaya A. M.
Published: September 2023

The article aims to reveal particularities of cancel culture in politics and international relations using methods of sociology and conflict theory. Deriving from previous research of cancel culture, authors define cancel culture as non-institutionalized form of social control that is implemented through mass mobilization in social media. After informal pressure the formal punishment could follow against those who break norms or behavior expectations. As a kind of social control cancel culture could contribute to overcoming gap between manifested values and social practices, preserving social order and fighting elitism and inequality. At the same time cancel culture could be used as instrument of unfair competition, political struggle and suppression of opinions. Comparison of cancel culture cases in the USA, United Kingdom and Russia allows to conclude that the scale and effectiveness of collective actions depend on national context, different systems of norms and values and cultural practices to react on violation of values and norms.

In politics and international relations cancel culture manifests as an addition to actions of formal political institutions, and it aims to undermine authority and reputation of a politician. It is important that in politics and international relations cancel culture is an instrument of informal control, which follows formal sanctions. Conclusions about the nature of cancel culture as an instrument of politics helps to understand better its functions in regard to attempts to “cancel” Russia. Cancel culture adds to formal sanctions and aims to isolate the country, to undermine its legitimacy as international actor. In regard to Russia the efforts are made to “cancel” it on two levels: formal – by sanctions and informal – via rejection to cooperate coming from various professional communities. In both cases countries and respective communities have their own understanding of norms and acceptable means and tools, and thus cancel culture becomes a toll of collective punishment. International relations lack universal understanding of norms and single center of political power, so that causes selective usage of instruments to impact, and thus cancel culture becomes an instrument of political struggle.

Background: Stroke is a global top cause of death and disability, with a rising impact in countries like Saudi Arabia. Awareness of stroke signs, treatment urgency, and disparities tied to factors such as age and education contribute to its severity. This study aimed at assessing stroke knowledge, attitude, and practice among adults in the Balqarn community in Saudi Arabia.
Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 745 adults in a community in Balqarn Governorate, Saudi Arabia, during the year 2023. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire that assessed knowledge, attitude, and practice related to stroke, as well as sociodemographic factors.
Results: The studied participants had a mean age of 42.1 ± 12.8 years old, with most being males (74.4%) and married (77%). The majority had a university level of education or above (63.4%). The most known causes and risk factors of stroke were identified as unhealthy lifestyle, stress, obesity, hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, and Diabetes Miletus (DM). Social media and open channel internet were the most reported sources of information. Positive preventive behaviors were reported among participants, and the majority reported they would go directly to the hospital if they experienced stroke symptoms. Female gender and university level of education were significantly associated with a good overall knowledge level regarding stroke.
Conclusion: The present study conducted at Balqarn Governorate, Saudi Arabia, underscores the necessity for improved stroke awareness and education. Social media and the internet stand out as key information sources, suggesting the potential for focused educational efforts. Encouragingly, participants showed readiness for healthy lifestyles. Women and university-educated individuals exhibited better stroke knowledge, highlighting targeted education's importance. These insights can shape effective stroke prevention and management strategies.

The Use of Science and Technology Among Afro-Pentecostals: A Theo-Historical Perspective from the Kenyan Context
Authors: Gathogo Julius
Published: September 2023

This research article sets out to explore the extent to which Afro-Pentecostalism, as an African Pentecostal movement, relies heavily on science and technology. It sets out on the premise that African Pentecostalism, as with the mainline churches (referring to the Roman Catholics, the Methodists, the Anglicans, the Presbyterians, the Lutherans, and the Reformed churches among others), has historically relied on science and technology since Kenya’s colonial era (1895-1963) to the present moment. The 21st century has however witnessed a scientific explosion in a manner akin to the effects of the industrial revolution of 18th century Europe—that eventually spread over to the rest of the world. Through a theo-historical design, this research article has methodologically sampled some key areas that demonstrate Afro-Pentecostals’ use of science and technology. Such samplings include the modern infrastructures that are by-products of the latter, industrially urbanised areas, televangelism, technological gadgets, biotechnology and environmental concerns among other areas. The findings in this research article are gathered through participant observation and an extensive review of relevant literature. Overall, it establishes that Afro-Pentecostals, like the mainline churches/missionaries, engage science and technology as a critical missiological tool, even though the former is largely mistaken with the New Religious Movements (NRMs)—whose wayward sections employ cultic and occultist trends that lead to religious dysfunctions, some of which shuns hospitals, schools and other forms of modern science and technology, and instead embrace mysticism.

Les recherches actuelles s’intéressent aux similarités neuronales entre personnes présentant des liens sociaux étroits. La proximité sociale restreinte de deux personnes serait significativement associée aux similarités de réponses neuronales rattachés à l’allocation de l’attention, l’interprétation narrative et la réponse affective, lors de la présentation d’un stimulus exogène. Ces réponses sont influencées par les connaissances, opinions, intérêts et valeurs personnelles, et la causalité de ces similarités n’est pas encore définie. En outre, des similarités ont également été trouvées au repos dans la connectivité fonctionnelle du cerveau entre deux personnes proches d’un réseau. Cette ressemblance perdure en contrôlant les facteurs de personnalité et les variables démographiques. Ainsi les ressemblances entre amis ne seraient pas qu’une simple impression, mais une concordance bien réelle au niveau du cerveau.

Results of a Three-Year Survey on the Implementation of Research Data Management and the Electronic Laboratory Notebook (ELN) Chemotion in an Advanced Inorganic Lab Course
Authors: Fink Fabian , Hoffmann Alexander , Herres-Pawlis Sonja
Published: September 2023

As ongoing digitalization accelerates the execution of experiments and the documentation and storage of the corresponding data substantially, appropriate research data management (RDM) is a necessity to enable sustainable research at all. Consequently, a rethinking is currently taking place in academia. This process becomes visible by the utilization of electronic laboratory notebooks (ELNs) for documentation, the publication of research data in repositories, or the publishers’ requirement for authors to provide a data availability statement. Despite the growing awareness of RDM in academia, the integration of the topic into curricula of chemistry studies is, if at all, in its infancy. As an initial example of incorporating RDM into curricula, an ELN was implemented in an advanced inorganic lab course for upper-division undergraduate students three years ago supported by learning materials on RDM in general. A survey among the students helped, firstly, tracking the implementation of the ELN and the integration of RDM and, secondly, improving teaching materials and concepts. The three-year follow-up shows a growing awareness of RDM and higher acceptance towards ELNs among the students. The survey results highlight the needs for and the progress in teaching RDM in an early stage of chemistry studies already. Moreover, the possibility to integrate the topic here as a hands-on experience is a facile method for its fast integration into teaching without changing complete curricula.

Introduction: Chest compression often cannot be administered using conventional techniques in a diving bell. Multiple alternative techniques are taught, including head-to-chest and both prone and seated knee-to-chest compressions, but there are no supporting efficacy data. This study evaluated the efficacy, safety and sustainability of these techniques. Methods: Chest compressions were delivered by a team of expert cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) providers. The primary outcome was proportion of chest compressions delivered to target depth compared to conventional CPR. Techniques found to be safe and potentially effective by the study team were further trialled by 20 emergency department staff members. Results: Expert providers delivered a median of 98% (interquartile range [IQR] 1.5%) of chest compressions to the target depth using conventional CPR. Only 32% (IQR 60.8%) of head-to-chest compressions were delivered to depth; evaluation of the technique was abandoned due to adverse effects. No study team member could register sustained compression outputs using prone knee-to-chest compressions. Seated knee-to-chest were delivered to depth 12% (IQR 49%) of the time; some compression providers delivered > 90% of compressions to depth. Conclusions: Head-to-chest compressions have limited efficacy and cause harm to providers; they should not be taught or used. Prone knee-to-chest compressions are ineffective. Seated knee-to-chest compressions have poor overall efficacy but some providers deliver them well. Further research is required to establish whether this technique is feasible, effective and sustainable in a diving bell setting, and whether it can be taught and improved with practise.

Introduction: Inner ear decompression sickness (IEDCS) is increasingly recognised in recreational diving, with the inner ear particularly vulnerable to decompression sickness in divers with a right-to-left shunt, such as is possible through a persistent (patent) foramen ovale (PFO). A review of patients treated for IEDCS at Fiona Stanley Hospital Hyperbaric Medicine Unit (FSH HMU) in Western Australia was performed to examine the epidemiology, risk factors for developing this condition, the treatment administered and the outcomes of this patient population. Methods: A retrospective review of all divers treated for IEDCS from the opening of the FSH HMU on 17 November 2014 to 31 December 2020 was performed. Patients were included if presenting with vestibular or cochlear dysfunction within 24 hours of surfacing from a dive, and excluded if demonstrating features of inner ear barotrauma. Results: There were a total of 23 IEDCS patients and 24 cases of IEDCS included for analysis, with 88% experiencing vestibular manifestations and 38% cochlear. Median dive time was 40 minutes and median maximum depth was 24.5 metres. The median time from surfacing to hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) was 22 hours. Vestibulocochlear symptoms fully resolved in 67% and complete symptom recovery was achieved in 58%. A PFO was found in 6 of 10 patients who subsequently underwent investigation with bubble contrast echocardiography upon follow-up. Conclusions: IEDCS occurred predominantly after non-technical repetitive air dives and ongoing symptoms and signs were often observed after HBOT. Appropriate follow-up is required given the high prevalence of PFO in these patients.

Introduction: Hypoxia can cause central nervous system dysfunction and injury. Hypoxia is a particular risk during rebreather diving. Given its subtle symptom profile and its catastrophic consequences there is a need for reliable hypoxia monitoring. Electroencephalography (EEG) is being investigated as a real time monitor for multiple diving problems related to inspired gas, including hypoxia. Methods: A systematic literature search identified articles investigating the relationship between EEG changes and acute cerebral hypoxia in healthy adults. Quality of clinical evidence was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. Results: Eighty-one studies were included for analysis. Only one study investigated divers. Twelve studies described quantitative EEG spectral power differences. Moderate hypoxia tended to result in increased alpha activity. With severe hypoxia, alpha activity decreased whilst delta and theta activities increased. However, since studies that utilised cognitive testing during the hypoxic exposure more frequently reported opposite results it appears cognitive processing might mask hypoxic EEG changes. Other analysis techniques (evoked potentials and electrical equivalents of dipole signals), demonstrated sustained regulation of autonomic responses despite worsening hypoxia. Other studies utilised quantitative EEG analysis techniques, (Bispectral index [BISTM], approximate entropy and Lempel-Ziv complexity). No change was reported in BISTM value, whilst an increase in approximate entropy and Lempel-Ziv complexity occurred with worsening hypoxia. Conclusions: Electroencephalographic frequency patterns change in response to acute cerebral hypoxia. There is paucity of literature on the relationship between quantitative EEG analysis techniques and cerebral hypoxia. Because of the conflicting results in EEG power frequency analysis, future research needs to quantitatively define a hypoxia-EEG response curve, and how it is altered by concurrent cognitive task loading.

The enforcement of foreign arbitration awards in North Korea is highly problematic due to the unique legal and economic structures. A dearth of enforcement options for property rights, rooted in limited individual ownership, widespread distrust in local currency, and limited movable assets, leads to a focus on real estate use right for enforcement actions. The absence of private real estate ownership and a proper registration system, however, pose considerable challenges. Article 65 of North Korea’s External Economic Arbitration Law provides seven grounds for refusal to recognize and enforce foreign arbitration awards, one of which allows for broad interpretation, possibly leading to governmental interference or non-enforcement. Furthermore, this article highlights the difficulties in enforcing arbitration awards via real estate assets due to restrictions on ownership and the absence of a real estate registration system. This article also analyzes ambiguities in transferring real estate use rights to foreign creditors following arbitration awards.

This study examines the formation of adolescents' norms toward non-normative behaviors using a two-wave survey of middle school students in South Korea over a one-year period. The study focuses on four modes of non-normative behavior, namely, verbal aggression, Internet slang, digital piracy, and self-exposure, and investigates the impact of exposure to descriptive and injunctive norms on social media on adolescents' actions, attitudes, and perceptions of non-normative behavior. The results reveal that exposure to injunctive norms on social media is positively associated with adolescents' engagement in deterring non-normative behavior. This suggests that when adolescents witness others taking action against non-normative behavior on social media, they are more likely to engage in similar actions to prevent such behavior. However, the effect of exposure to descriptive norms on actions against non-normative behavior is not supported in this study. The study provides insights into the influence of personal relationships and social networks on young people's perceptions of social media use in South Korea, with important implications for developing interventions to promote responsible and respectful digital behavior among young people.
Family Leave Policies and Employee Attitudinal Outcomes in Korea: The Moderating and Joint Moderating Effects of Gender and Marital Status
Authors:   Institute of Korean Studies, Jeon So Hee , Hur Hyungjo
Published: September 2023

Demographic changes that many contemporary societies experience - e.g., the increase of dual-career couples and non-traditional families, the Millennials reshaping the workplace, and so on - and subsequent needs of individuals pose challenges for organizations. As a way to better motivate and retain employees, organizations provide employees with new types of support such as family leave policies that can help them with better work-family balance. This study examines the impact of organizational provision of family leaves on attitudinal outcomes of Korean employees as moderated by employee demographic characteristics. The findings suggest that the impact of family leave provisions vary depending on employee characteristics. Their impact on employee job satisfaction and organizational commitment are stronger for married female employees than for any other gender-marital status groups.

El concepto de multifuncionalidad asume que la agricultura cumple funciones que no son mercantiles, como las alimentarias, ambientales, sociales y culturales. Es una vía para avanzar hacia una agricultura sustentable más respetuosa con los seres humanos y con el ambiente, misma que persiste en diferentes territorios agrícolas. Sin embargo, es presionada por las actividades económicas con fines de negocio, lo que ha generado su deterioro. El objetivo de la investigación fue identificar las principales funciones que cumple la agricultura familiar campesina del municipio de Calpan, Puebla. Se aplicó una encuesta en 2020, con el objetivo de captar información sobre los diferentes procesos sociales relacionados con la multifuncionalidad de la agricultura familiar. Para determinar el tamaño de la muestra se aplicó un muestreo estratificado aleatorio (MEA) distribución de Neyman, de la que resultó una muestra de 81 productores. Entre las principales funciones se encuentran: socioculturales, 81% basa sus prácticas agrícolas en las fases lunares; en las ambientales, la conservación de agrobiodiversidad, en las económicas, para el 45% la agricultura es la principal fuente de ingresos, al 100% le genera empleos y para el 53% le aporta a la seguridad alimentaria en maíz y frijol. Finalmente, en las territoriales destacan el relevo intergeneracional, 75% de jóvenes que desean continuar dedicándose a las actividades agrícolas. Se concluye que la agricultura familiar campesina es fundamental, ya que conserva funciones sociales, culturales, económicas, ambientales y territoriales que benefician a las familias, al ambiente y a la sociedad.

RESUMO:
Objetivo: Relatar o tratamento e a abordagem terapêutica adotada em uma lactente com tumor ovariano do
epitélio germinativo e avaliar os resultados obtidos por meio do tratamento cirúrgico conservador e do uso
de quimioterapia como tratamento adjuvante. Metodologia: O presente estudo trata-se de um relato de
caso, de caráter exploratório e de abordagem qualitativa. As informações foram obtidas por meio de coleta
de dados em uma paciente na cidade de Campina Grande - PB e dos métodos diagnósticos aos quais a
mesma foi submetida. Também foi realizado um levantamento bibliográfico através de revisão da literatura.
Resultados e discussões: Na paciente foi identificado uma tumoração pélvica volumosa, que após alguns
exames complementares foi possível evidenciar alguns marcadores tumorais, dessa forma, foi indicada a
cirurgia para retirada da formação tumoral e o uso da quimioterapia como tratamento complementar,
evitando recidivas. Considerações finais: O tumor ovariano infanto-juvenil na sua grande maioria é de
carácter benigno, e no relato apresentado a cirurgia conservadora foi realizada com êxito. Como tratamento
pós-cirúrgico foi definida a quimioterapia, visando auxiliar no processo.

RESUMO: Essa pesquisa tem como objetivo descrever o nível de conhecimento dos profissionais de
enfermagem acerca da prevenção e tratamento das lesões por pressão, conforme a literatura nos últimos dez anos.
METODOLOGIA: Trata-se de um estudo de revisão de literatura do tipo integrativa. O levantamento
bibliográfico foi realizado entre os meses de maio e junho de 2023. O estudo se deu nas bases de dados LILACS
e SCIELO. Foram utilizados os descritores: lesão por pressão “AND” enfermagem, que estão registrados nos
DeCS, e que foram definidos de acordo com o tema proposto. Os critérios de inclusão foram os artigos originais
na íntegra, disponíveis nas bases de dados, escritos em língua portuguesa e que foram publicados nos últimos
dez anos. Inicialmente foram encontrados 238 estudos no Lilacs e 111 no Scielo. Após a análise e leitura dos
artigos, foi realizado um recorte temporal priorizando os estudos mais recentes, onde foram selecionados um
total de 6 artigos publicados entre os anos de 2019 a 2023, pois esses abrangeram a temática proposta, assim
atingindo os objetivos propostos por essa revisão integrativa. RESULTADOS E DISCUSSÃO: Em relação à
abordagem dos estudos selecionados para compor essa revisão, 2 foram transversal de abordagem quantitativa,
1 estudo comparativo, 1 descritivo exploratório, 1 de natureza qualitativa e 1 estudo transversal descritivo. Após
a seleção dos estudos nas bases de dados, foram distribuídos em um quadro de dados contendo as seguintes
informações: título, autor, ano e objetivo do estudo. CONSIDERAÇÕES FINAIS: Essa revisão demostrou que
existem profissionais capacitados, de maneira que realizam a inspeção da pele, mudança de decúbito, hidratação
da pele do paciente e utilização das escalas de avaliação de risco de desenvolvimento da LPP. Todavia, atualmente
ainda existem profissionais de enfermagem que necessitam de capacitações e atualizações acerca dos cuidados
para a prevenção da lesão por pressão, pois apresentaram lacunas nos conhecimentos sobre essa temática.
