Educação infantil do campo
Authors: Marafon Danielle
Published: November 2024

Este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar aspectos da Educação Infantil do Campo, compreendendo suas especificidades e correlacionando-as ao Projeto Político Pedagógico de um Centro Municipal de Educação do campo (CMEIC), desvelando o que se estabelece (ou não) com os propósitos de uma prática pedagógica campesina. A metodologia se sustenta numa análise qualitativa, de abordagem bibliográfica e documental, e por entrevistas realizadas com professoras. Os resultados apresentam lacunas em relação à concepção de educação do campo, atendendo de forma parcial as necessidades da comunidade campesina e que o projeto pedagógico do CMEIC investigado, de modo geral, converge com essa concepção. Concluiu-se que a educação escolar do campo necessita assegurar especificidades em seu projeto pedagógico, respeitando práticas próprias do cotidiano dessas comunidades, assim, efetivando um processo humanístico e emancipador dos sujeitos.
Educação do campo no estado de Rondônia
Authors: Conte Isaura Isabel , Souza Edivânia de
Published: November 2024

Este texto apresenta e discute resultados de estudos bibliográficos sobre a Educação do Campo no estado de Rondônia/Brasil, cujo objetivo é possibilitar conhecer a publicação disponível e a abrangência das temáticas entre o período de 1998 e 2019. A metodologia utilizada é a revisão bibliográfica, tendo como base de dados a plataforma de periódicos CAFe/Capes, a Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações (BDTD) e o Catálogo de Teses e Dissertações/Capes. Destaca-se, como relevante: a produção bibliográfica acerca da Educação do Campo no estado de Rondônia ainda é pouca e está grandemente vinculada às temáticas dos movimentos sociais e pedagogia da alternância nas Escolas Família-Agrícola; são percebidos equívocos conceituais de conceber educação com mediação tecnológica ou mesmo escolas rurais, como sendo o mesmo campo conceitual que Educação do Campo. Constata-se, ainda, que há dissonâncias entre bases de dados que deveriam conter os mesmos trabalhos publicados, além do atraso na importação deles, o que dificulta a pesquisa bibliográfica.
Educação de Jovens e Adultos em Escola do Campo
Authors: Campos Ana Claudia , Nascimento Cynthia Cristina , Rezende Maria Aparecida
Published: November 2024

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar os 25 anos de evolução da Educação do Campo no Brasil, destacando as raízes históricas, lutas e conquistas, ao mesmo tempo em que problematiza o lugar que as mulheres negras camponesas ocupam, ou não, na Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA), em salas anexas de uma escola do campo. Trata-se de estudantes, professoras da EJA e integrantes de um grupo de mulheres do cerrado.  O estudo qualitativo foi realizado por meio de levantamento bibliográfico, entrevistas, rodas de conversas e pela vivência de uma das pesquisadoras, que cresceu nesse contexto. Os resultados mostraram docentes da EJA sobrecarregadas, enfrentando uma tripla jornada ao conciliar múltiplas funções escolares com outros trabalhos. Nota-se que ainda há resquícios da Educação Rural, todavia, a Educação do Campo se destaca por preparar para a vida, aliando educação e trabalho. A luta pela Educação do Campo converge com as demandas das mulheres negras camponesas na busca por emancipação, promoção da soberania, segurança alimentar e nutricional e preservação do cerrado. Por fim, a pesquisa sugere a necessidade de políticas públicas, incluindo formação docente que considere a realidade das mulheres negras camponesas, fortalecendo a EJA e a Educação do Campo no Brasil.
Strauss e o duplo propósito da educação liberal
Authors: Santos Claudio Cesar Carvalho
Published: November 2024

Resumo: O presente trabalho tem como objetivo apresentar e discutir o tema da educação liberal na obra de Leo Strauss. Tentaremos apresentar a posição do filósofo, a qual, a nosso ver, confere um duplo propósito à educação liberal. Primeiramente, o filósofo teuto-americano demonstra certo descontentamento com as sociedades de massa, as quais são caracterizadas pela baixa qualidade de suas produções artísticas e intelectuais. Nesse sentido, para Strauss, a educação liberal tem o propósito de remediar os problemas da sociedade de massa, estimulando qualidades como a dedicação e a concentração e tornando possível a constituição de uma “aristocracia dentro da democracia”. Por outro lado, Strauss define a filosofia como a educação do adulto, entendendo, ao mesmo tempo, a educação cavalheiresca como algo direcionado ao jovem, o que torna possível que está forma de educação possua até mesmo um caráter lúdico. Explorando essa linha de raciocínio, Strauss considera, então, que a educação liberal pode ser identificada como uma preparação para a filosofia.

Strauss and the Dual Purpose of Liberal Education
Abstract: The present work aims to present and discuss the theme of liberal education in the work of Leo Strauss. We will attempt to present the philosopher's position, which, in our view, confers a dual purpose to liberal education. Firstly, the German-American philosopher expresses a certain discontent with mass societies, which are characterized by the low quality of their artistic and intellectual productions. In this sense, for Strauss, liberal education aims to remedy the problems of mass society by stimulating qualities such as dedication and concentration, thereby making possible the establishment of an "aristocracy within democracy". On the other hand, Strauss defines philosophy as the education of the adult, while also understanding chivalric education as something directed towards the young, which allows this form of education to even possess a playful character. Exploring this line of reasoning, Strauss considers, therefore, that liberal education can be identified as a preparation for philosophy.

Relatório de uma discussão de um seminário sobre o tractatus de Wittgenstein
Authors: Chaves-Tannús Márcio
Published: November 2024

De acordo com o regimento da revista Educação e Filosofia, um de seus objetivos é "veicular textos de caráter científico e didático nas áreas. . ." de educação e filosofia. Nos seminários e atividades acadêmicas afins, a importância do aprendizado e da prática da redação de relatórios de discussões advém, sobretudo, de sua eficácia como instrumento de controle e fixação dos resultados do trabalho em equipe. Apesar de sua utilidade, contudo, praticamente inexistem textos publicados com a finalidade de mostrar o que é, ou pode ser, um relatório de discussão. O texto que ora apresento é a tradução, com várias modificações, de um original alemão que pretende relatar a discussão ocorrida no dia 17 de novembro de 1980 em um seminário do Curso de Filosofia da Freie Universitaet - Berlin. A obra que serviu de base à discussão foi o Tractatus bgico-phibsophicus de Ludwig Mttgenstein. A edição, objeto de minhas referências no relatório é da Suhrkamþ, Frankfurt, 1976. Devido à diversidade de fonas que pode assumir um bom relatório, meu objetivo não é o de estabelecer um padrão. O que desejo é oferecer um exemplo que, se consultado, poderá se mostrar útil. [...]

Penggunaan sumber daya minyak bumi dan secara terus-menerus dapat menyebabkan cadangan sumber daya tersebut semakin menipis. Oleh karena itu, sesuai dengan arahan Kementerian Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM) diperlukan suatu teknologi untuk meningkatkan elektrifikasi dan konsumsi listrik terutama dalam kebutuhan rumah tangga,salah satunya kompor induksi. Kompor induksi sudah mulai banyak digunakan, tetapi bisa dikatakan masih belum fleksibel dan kompatibel. Sehingga, diperlukan kompor induksi yang dapat digunakan kapan pun dan di mana pun. Diperlukannya sebuah kompor induksi yang demikian, dikarenakan pentingnya para bayi untuk mengonsumsi Makanan Pendamping Air Susu Ibu (MPASI) pada kondisi yang konstan dan stabil terhadap suhu di lingkungan sekitar yang sangat bervariasi sehingga nutrisi bayi dapat terjaga dan terpenuhi dengan baik. Sistem ini dirancang menggunakan input tegangan 220 VAC yang kemudian diturunkan menjadi 36 VAC menggunakan transformator dengan tujuan agar arus pada sistem yang nantinya masuk ke inverter tidak terlalu besar. Terdapat lilitan induktor pada rangkaian resonansi seri yang menghasilkan medan listrik dengan frekuensi resonansi 40 kHz dan menginduksi logam sehingga menghasilkan panas pada logam. Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) digunakan untuk mengontrol kecepatan menuju set point suhu MPASI.
Bio-fumigants as grain protectants in storage-A review
Authors: Karthik D S , Preetha G , Keerthana B , Suganthy M , Chitra N , Raja K
Published: November 2024

Agriculture is a global lifeline, especially in developing nations like India, where over 70% of the population relies on it. Protecting food grains from insect pests during post-harvest storage is crucial, particularly in regions lacking advanced storage technologies, leading to significant losses. Fumigation is still a key strategy for safeguarding stored grains. Methyl bromide (MBr) and aluminium phosphide (AlP) are the widely used chemical fumigants. Phosphine is used to a greater extent today, but there are frequent reports that several storage pests have developed resistance to this fumigant. The United Nations World Meteorological Organization declared methyl bromide as an ozone-depleting chemical in 1995, and hence, most of the developed countries have phased out its use. Therefore, there is an urgent requirement to develop alternatives having a possible replacement for these fumigants. Biofumigants are organic compounds derived from various plant sources, including essential oils, botanical powders, and plant residues or from microbial volatiles. They release volatile compounds toxic to pests but safe for humans and the environment, offering a sustainable pest management approach. Plants such as mustard and radish produce glucosinolates that release isothiocyanates, known for their pesticidal properties. Essential oils from eucalyptus, clove, and mint and volatiles from certain fungi and bacteria also exhibit fumigant properties. Biofumigants disrupt insect physiological and biochemical processes, leading to mortality or reduced reproduction. Studies showed their efficacy against pests like red flour beetle, lesser grain borer, and rice weevil. Unlike chemical fumigants, biofumigants do not leave harmful residues, preserving grain quality and aligning with organic farming practices. Shifting to biofumigants offers a promising, eco-friendly, and effective alternative for post-harvest pest management, ensuring food safety and sustainability
Parental Confirmation of a Child’s Consent to Data Processing
Authors: Klisowska Paulina
Published: November 2024

This article attempts to define the conditions for consenting to the processing of children’s personal data under the GDPR. The article focuses on analysing the data protection law, regarding to the most important problem, that at present, consent to data processing involves at most a few clicks or nudges, making it difficult to speak of any real control of data controllers over whether consent to the processing of a child’s personal data has been lawfully given or confirmed by an authorized person. It’s not hard to see that the young age of users, along with limited awareness of data protection and the risks associated with its use, makes this topic extremely relevant and worth addressing.

Flash floods cause substantial harm to the social and economic aspects of the affected countries. This is a significant problem in urban areas where drainage systems are inadequate and unable to withstand severe flooding. Understanding the specific regions that are susceptible to flooding is essential to implement strategies aimed at mitigating the risk. Detecting floods in ungauged basins is challenging. The current work aims to establish a practical method for identifying and mapping floodplain areas. We can use several tools, including the FLO-2D integration tool, Flood Risk tool, Geomorphic Flood Area plugin, and Quantum Geographical Information System (QGIS) with Hydrologic Engineering Centre River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) to efficiently and cost-effectively detect flood hazard zones. The QGIS tool, the Geomorphic Flood Index (GFI), is the most valuable tool for identifying flood-prone areas in cases where the areas are extensive and lack sufficient data. This tool offers high data analysis and cost calculation precision while using few resources.
Fibrolytic efficiency of the large intestine microbiota may benefit running speed in French trotters: A pilot study
Authors: Vasseur Maximilien , Lepers Romuald , Langevin Nicolas , Julliand Samy , Grimm Pauline
Published: November 2024

This pilot study sought to explore the contribution of the large intestine microbiota to energy metabolism and exercise performance through its ability to degrade fibers into short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs). To investigate this, a correlational study was carried out on athlete horses under the same management conditions. Fecal microbiota diversity and composition, fibrolytic efficiency and SCFAs were analyzed. An incremental running test was carried out to estimate the maximal running speed (MRS) of the horses, and blood samples were taken to measure energy metabolism parameters. MRS was positively correlated with the efficiency of the fecal microbiota in degrading cellulose in vitro (r = 0.51; p = 0.02). The abundance of fibrolytic bacterial taxa was not associated with MRS, but functional inference analysis revealed a positive association between MRS and pathways potentially related to fibrolytic activity (r = 0.54; p = 0.07 and r = 0.56; p = 0.05 for butyrate metabolism and thiamine metabolism, respectively). In contrast, the metabolic pathway of starch degradation appeared negatively associated with MRS (r = −0.55; p = 0.06). The present findings suggest a potential contribution of the large intestine microbiota and dietary fibers digestion to exercise capacity in equine athletes.
Waiting for the Perfect Time: Perfectionistic Concerns Predict the Interpretation of Ambiguous Utterances About Time
Authors: Li Heng
Published: November 2024

Across numerous languages, individuals frequently employ two spatial perspectives – namely, the Moving Time and Moving Ego metaphors – to represent the movement of events in time. Specifically, the Moving Time perspective conceptualizes time as a dynamic entity that moves toward a stationary observer situated in a fixed location. In contrast, the Moving Ego metaphor positions the individual (the “ego”) as the one traversing through time, while time itself remains static. Previous research has established a positive association between procrastination and the adoption of the Moving Ego perspective. Drawing on findings that highlight the robust link between procrastination and perfectionistic concerns, we hypothesized that perfectionistic tendencies would correlate with a greater propensity to invoke an ego-moving representation of time. The present research tests this hypothesis and provides substantial support for this relationship. We demonstrate that a well-established measure of perfectionistic concerns is linked to an increased use of the Moving Ego perspective when interpreting ambiguous temporal utterances. Furthermore, this relationship is mediated by procrastination. This study presents the first empirical evidence that individual differences in perfectionistic concerns may influence how people perceive and interpret temporal relationships.
Wilde Jagd, Ostwind, Westwind, himmlisches Kind
Authors: Shojaei Kawan Christine
Published: November 2024

Winds are fascinating forces of nature, awe-inspiring and devastating when they appear as storms, and therefore a powerful theme in religion, literature and narrative, in music and the arts. Greek-Roman Antiquity personified the winds as nature deities, bearing resemblance to the angels and often represented as embodiments of forceful and tyrannic masculinity. These classical traditions are reflected in their own ways in the visual arts since the Renaissance. In legend and literature from the Middle Ages up to our times, however, winds and storms seem to be preponderantly allied to the dark forces of evil, the devil, wizards and witches, the Wild Hunter, whereas in folktales, the unruly winds appear mostly as helper figures, creating often moments of extraordinary fun.
Dornröschen im deutschen Mittelalter?

Published: November 2024

Der Beitrag möchte auf einzelne Handlungssequenzen in der deutschen Literaturgeschichte aufmerksam machen, die als Mosaiksteinchen einer mittelhochdeutschen, vorgrimmschen Dornröschen-Tradition lesbar sein könnten. Mit einem diachronen Blick werden epochenspezifische Umbesetzungen und Umakzentuierungen zur Diskussion gestellt. Zugleich legt eine methodische Reflexion über das motivgeschichtliche Einschlägigsein Unsicherheiten und Zweifel offen, was als Dornröschen-Parallele überhaupt gelten darf.
Illustrating History: April 25th in Portuguese Comics
Authors: Dias Alexandra Lourenço
Published: November 2024

This essay offers a comprehensive analysis of Portuguese comics, with a specific focus on those that depict the April 25th Revolution of 1974. It traces the historical evolution of these comics, examining how they have engaged with significant political and social changes in Portugal. The study critically evaluates the term “BD de Abril” (April Comics), proposing a more nuanced categorization that reflects the thematic and chronological diversity within this body of work. By analyzing key works, including Utopia by Raquel Varela and Robson Vilalba, the essay explores how Portuguese comics have functioned as both artistic and historiographical tools, especially during periods of political upheaval. The research identifies four distinct phases in the development of “April Comics”: Denunciation (pre-revolution), Exaltation (immediate post-revolution), Revivalism (1990s–2000s), and Revisitation (2010s onwards). Each phase is contextualized within the broader socio-political landscape, revealing the evolving role of comics in reflecting and shaping historical consciousness. The essay concludes by arguing that while “April Comics” is a valuable category, it requires refinement to fully capture the complexity and richness of these works.
Teaching English with Chinese characteristics: a corpus analysis of changes in university curricula
Authors: Jiang Feng (Kevin) , Hyland Ken
Published: November 2024

English language teaching has had a chequered history in China, reflecting an increasing desire to modernise and participate on the world stage combined with a watchful caution against importing unwanted cultural elements. Change, however, has proceeded rapidly in the last 35 years, and China now provides around 700,000 postgraduate students annually to Western universities. Given this importance to western universities and the concerns surrounding the nature and perceived purposes of English-medium instruction, we believe a better understanding of Chinese ELT is crucial. This article tracks the changing role and importance of English in China through its language policy for university non-English majors. We do this using a corpus approach to analyse the keywords in the 1986, 1999, 2007 and 2020 iterations of the national curriculum documents. Our results show a focus on language skills has been replaced by employer-friendly communicative requirements, followed by greater student awareness of learning strategies, and most recently, a more culturally sensitive and critical orientation. We offer a study of an EFL curriculum development outside a more familiar Western context, suggesting the value of discourse analyses to understanding key changes in curricula, and revealing that choices regarding language instruction are rarely ‘neutral’ pedagogical decisions.
India’s Energy and Fiscal Transition
Authors: Bhandari Laveesh , Dwivedi Aasheerwad
Published: November 2024

This paper looks at India’s expected energy transition towards a low carbon future and studies how government revenues from fossil fuels will be affected over the next two decades. It takes the International Energy Association (2021) scenarios for India and studies how both tax revenues and non-tax revenues for national (central) and sub-national (state) governments would be affected. The study finds that under fairly standard assumptions on growth, prices, and taxes, there would be continued growth in revenues from fossil fuels till 2040; however, as a share of the GDP and overall government budget it would fall significantly and this would impose challenges for both the state and central governments in India. Moreover, since the central government is the greatest beneficiary of fossil fuels, it would face the brunt of the pressure. The paper also briefly discusses the possible impact of net zero and carbon taxes if India were to take that route, as well as how subsidies are expected to impact and be impacted by such considerations.

Osler and Cushing on Vesalius
Authors:   Grigore T. Popa University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Baran Dana
Published: November 2024

Both Osler and Cushing still considered that mastering anatomy was essential to medical theory and practice. This was particularly true for a skilled surgeon, such as Cushing, but for the reputed internist Osler as well. Osler and Cushing, devoted bibliophiles, collected outstanding works, including those of Vesalius, and made up extremely valuable libraries meant to preserve original information and documents, able to convey traditions from the past to the new generations. Besides, they thoroughly discussed and interpreted the work and life of Vesalius, his importance as a trailblazer and significance for the history of medical knowledge. These two titans of modern medicine embodied the classic humanistic features of doctors and medicine, a science tightly connected with science, art, philosophy and religion, but equally with ethics and medical deontology. Not haphazardly, today, under various forms, medical «humanities», art and history of medicine are once again reconsidered and optionally included in the academic syllabus.

Published: November 2024

This personalia is devoted to an episode of the turbulent life and work of Professor Volodymyr Favr, a prominent Kharkiv scientist, hygienist, and malaria specialist, whose 150th anniversary is being marked this year. It’s an entirely routine episode. It is about the activities of V. Favr, a privatdozent at that time, as a lecturer on factory hygiene at the Kharkiv Institute of Technology in 1906-1908. Certain archival documents previously neglected by historians are being brought into scientific circulation. This study applies methodological tools of biographical studies, local history, social history of medicine, and history of everyday life. It examines the election of V. Favr to the post of lecturer at the Kharkiv Institute of Technology, his further academic career, and organizational activities to create a factory hygiene classroom. It is pointed out that even the everyday scenes of the outstanding personalities’ lives should be the subject of historical and biographical studies, as they contribute to a better understanding of the path of these people to their victories.

Current understanding of the etiopathogenesis of degenerative lumbar disc disease in children. Illumination of key aspects and perspectives
Authors:   Kharkiv National Medical University, Abdullaiev Roman
Published: November 2024

Low back pain is the most common complaint among people of any age, and degenerative disc disease (DHD) is the most common cause. Low back pain due to lumbar spondylolysis in adolescent athletes ranges from 8.8% to 47%. Features of the structure of intervertebral discs, a combination of genetic, mechanical, metabolic, and inflammatory factors create conditions for the development of degenerative changes in the vertebral motor segment, especially in intervertebral discs. The results of pathomorphological and magnetic resonance imaging studies show that degenerative changes in discs begin in childhood. Individual publications present data on the formation of a protrusion, even hernias occur in teenagers. Some publications have shown the effectiveness of drugs containing chondrocyte substitutes, indicating that early diagnosis of degenerative changes in the discs will allow timely treatment and secondary preventive measures. Further detailed research is needed to study the features of the development of degenerative changes in the discs in adolescents using imaging methods, taking into account the most common etiopathogenetic factors.
The problem of interpreting and resolving moral issues in human life using a christocentric approach
Authors:   Ukrainian Institute of Arts and Sciences, Merenkov G.A. , Ivanchuk M.M. ,   Ukrainian Institute of Arts and Sciences
Published: November 2024

This study aims to determine whether the Adventist view of Scripture aligns with that of Jesus and the apostles or if it represents a unique perspective specific to this denomination. It seeks to ascertain whether the hermeneutical principles followed by Adventists are truly consistent with those of the apostles. To address this, a comparative analysis of New Testament and Adventist hermeneutics is conducted. In conclusion, both New Testament and Adventist hermeneutics share similarities, primarily in their emphasis on the centrality of Scripture. Both approaches view the Bible not as a collection of myths or allegories, but as a historically accurate and divinely inspired source essential for salvation, thus requiring no additional human tradition for accurate understanding. The various parts of Scripture harmonize with each other, and the goal of interpretation is to explain the truth and resolve complex issues or disputes. While Christ and the Apostles used Scripture (at that time, the Old Testament) to correct misconceptions imposed by rabbinical traditions, the ultimate purpose of Scripture is not merely polemical but to foster a relationship with God for human salvation. Similarly, Adventist hermeneutics aims to reveal the true faith presented in God’s Word, with a Christ-centered approach as a core principle of interpretation, reflecting the focus that the apostles placed on Christ. The Seventh-day Adventist Church believes that it is the rightful heir of the biblical Christianity founded by Jesus and continued by the apostles. Adventists assert that they are the faithful remnant that has not deviated from the Living Word but follows and spreads it as light in darkness. While Adventists respect and value Christians of other denominations, they especially honor Protestant reformers, highlighting the significance of their theological contributions.

Authors: Susilo Hendri , Aldian Fan Maitri , Wungu Citrawati Dyah Kencono , Alsagaff Mochamad Yusuf , Sutanto Henry , Multazam Chaq El Chaq Zamzam
Published: November 2024

Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a critical condition with high mortality rate, as the current management of CS presents significant challenges. Exploration of more effective therapies is necessitated. This review article comprehensively examines the efficacy and safety of levosimendan in the management of CS. By synthesising evidence from numerous studies, a comparison of levosimendan over traditional inotropic agents, such as enoximone, dobutamine, dopamine and norepinephrine, is highlighted. The unique mechanism of action of levosimendan enhances myocardial contractility without increasing oxygen demand, offering a promising alternative for patients with CS. This review also delves into comparative studies that demonstrate the superiority of levosimendan in improving survival rates, haemodynamic parameters, and reducing the incidence of CS complications. Safety profiles and adverse effects are critically assessed to provide a balanced view of the therapeutic window provided by levosimendan. The review concludes that levosimendan is a valuable addition to the therapeutic strategy against CS, with the potential to improve patient outcomes.

Obesity is a chronic disease and a significant public health problem. It is estimated that more than 650 million adults, 340 million adolescents, and 39 million children are obese. Obesity leads to organ complications including type 2 diabetes, hypertension and heart diseases. The management of obesity is based on nutritional therapy combined with lifestyle changes and increased physical activity. Pharmacotherapy is also crucial, and incretin analogues are a relatively new group of drugs. Glucose-independent insulinotropic peptide and glucagon-like peptide-1 are natural incretins. These short half-life hormones are degraded by the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-4. Glucose-independent insulinotropic peptide and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists increase blood glucose-dependent insulin secretion while inhibiting glucagon secretion and delaying gastric emptying, thus enabling the treatment of both type 2 diabetes and obesity. Glucagon-like peptide-1 also exhibits cardioprotective and neuroprotective effects. This study aimed to review the literature on the use of glucagon-like peptide-1 analogues and verify reports on the use of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide for weight reduction. An analysis of the available literature on the efficacy and safety of liraglutide, semaglutide and tirzepatide was conducted. The potential role of these drugs in weight reduction and possible adverse effects are discussed. Attention was also paid to the pharmacokinetics of the drugs and the mechanism of incretin action in the body.

Introduction and objective: Injuries to male external genitalia account for 2% of all injuries. Most affected patients require surgical intervention. This study aimed to retrospectively analyse the diagnosis and treatment of male external genital injuries using the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) scale to assess their severity. Materials and methods: A total of 998 men with abdominal and pelvic injuries were admitted to the Emergency Department of the Military Institute of Medicine – National Research Institute in Warsaw, Poland, between October 2017 and August 2022. Injuries to male external genital organs were identified in 26 patients (3%). The mean age of this group was 37 years (21 to 72 years). Direct trauma to external genital organs was diagnosed in 14 patients (54%). In 12 patients (46%), external genital trauma was an accompanying injury to multi-organ injuries resulting from traffic accidents or falls from heights. All patients underwent a detailed history taking and physical examination, as well as ultrasound and/or trauma scan, followed by AAST. Results: In the group of 26 patients with external genital trauma, 14 patients (54%) were classified for urgent surgical treatment, including 8 patients (31%) with penile fractures and 6 patients (23%) with scrotal and testicular injuries. In one case, penile fracture was accompanied by urethral damage. In another case, orchidectomy was necessary in the group of patients with scrotal injuries. Among the 12 patients (46%) with multi-organ injuries following traffic accidents or falls from heights, bed regimen and antibiotic therapy allowed full recovery. According to the AAST scale for penile, scrotal, and testicular injuries, grade I was observed in 14 patients, grade II in 6 patients, grade III in 5 patients, grade IV in 3 patients, and grade V in 1 patient. Conclusions: The AAST scale is an effective and practical tool for assessing injuries to the male external genitalia. Early diagnosis and surgical treatment of male genital injuries reduce the risk of complications, whereas delayed diagnosis and treatment may result in infection and reproductive dysfunction.

Absztrakt

A hun korban megjelenő, legtöbbször íjmerevítőnek nevezett agancslemezek a 9–10. századra jelentős átalakuláson mentek keresztül, sőt ezt követően rövid időn belül teljesen eltűntek. Dolgozatunk ennek okát igyekszik feltárni. Felmerült annak a lehetősége, hogy ezek az agancslemezek az íjak felépítésében lévő ragasztások megerősítésére jelenhettek meg, majd az íjak a ragasztási módok fejlődésével erősítés nélkül is sokkal erősebbekké, tartósabbakká váltak. Ebben az időszakban jelent meg a felajzott íj viselésére szolgáló készenléti íjtegez is. Ennek használatát talán pont az tette lehetővé, hogy az íjak szerkezetének megváltozása alkalmassá tette azokat a hosszabb ideig történő felajzva tartásra. A hosszabb ideig felajzva tartható íj nemcsak a felajzás körülményességét spórolta meg, de komoly harcászati előnyt is jelenthetett viselője számára.

Authors: Presinszky Károly
Published: November 2024

This paper analyzes dialect-stylizing internet content on current events that depict Slovakia Hungarian dialects speakers. The regular display of dialect phenomena on social media platforms allows rapid spread, constant presence, and the possibility of comments. The figure of the dialect speaker, previously geographically bounded, can become a symbol of authenticity, accessible from anywhere in the world. The paper examines the importance of the views of lay language users and content creators in simple language management and citizen science in the contexts of the recognition of dialects, of their oral and written representation, and of the evaluation of languages and varieties.

Aim. To assess the rs2285666 nucleotide sequence of the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) gene and its association with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in patients after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Material and methods. The study included 100 patients after COVID-19, including 50 men and 50 women, hospitalized with a diagnosis of ACS. The diagnosis of COVID-19 in all 100 patients was confirmed by a positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) smear. All patients underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty with stenting, standard clinical and paraclinical examination, and genetic testing of the rs2285666 ACE2 gene by PCR followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. The comparison group consisted of 200 patients with ACS after COVID-19, confirmed by a PCR smear or antibody titer.

Results. Statistically significant differences were obtained for the AA genotype, carriage of which among male patients with ACS after COVID-19 was 2,5 times less common than in men in the control group (OR =0,391, 95% CI: 0,167-0,917; p=0,028). On the other hand, carriage of the rs2285666 GA genotype of the ACE2 gene is not associated with an increased risk of ACS in women after COVID-19. There were no significant differences in genotype frequencies in the group of women and in the general group (without division by sex).

Conclusion. The data obtained may indicate a protective role of the rs2285666 AA genotype of the ACE2 gene for males regarding ACS development after COVID-19. These results are the first steps towards building a prognostic model to estimate the ACS risk in patients after COVID-19, which will reduce morbidity and mortality for this group of patients.

Aim. To study the effect of EDNRA rs6842241 and MRAS rs9818870 polymorphic variants on the lipid-lowering effect of rosuvastatin in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), and to determine the role of these loci in the development of CAD among Central Russia residents.

Material and methods. The pharmacogenetic study involved 116 patients with class II-III stable angina. Patients received rosuvastatin with dose titration to achieve target low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels. The genetic and epidemiological study included DNA samples of 1960 Central Russia residents (1261 patients with CAD and 699 healthy individuals). Genotyping of polymorphic variants was performed on a MassARRAY-4 genomic mass spectrometer. Associations of polymorphisms with lipid changes for 1, 6 and 12 months of follow-up were calculated using linear regression analysis adjusted for sex, age, body mass index and rosuvastatin dose; associations with CAD risk — using logistic regression analysis adjusted for sex and age. The statistical significance of associations was calculated using the permutation test.

Results. Carriage of the AA and CA genotypes of EDNRA rs6842241 variant was associated with a weakening of the rosuvastatin lipid-lowering effect in relation to total cholesterol (β=0,075, p=0,001) and LDL-C (β=0,145, p=0,017) at the end of the first month and 12 months of therapy (β=0,049, p=0,013 and β=0,072, p=0,040, respectively). Carriage of the AA genotype of EDNRA rs6842241 variant was associated with an increased CAD risk (odds ratio 5,36; 95% confidence interval 1,62-17,71, p=0,004). MRAS rs9818870 variant was not associated with rosuvastatin pharmacogenetics or with the CAD risk. Both polymorphic variants were not associated with lipid levels outside of lipid-lowering therapy, as well as with the triglyceride changes. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels during the entire follow-up period changed insignificantly.

Conclusion. The EDNRA rs6842241 variant is associated with both a weakening of the lipid-lowering effect of rosuvastatin in CAD and an increased risk of its development in the population.
