Authors: Peixoto Miller Maciel , Souza Extefana Pereira , Sobral Diego Rangel , Ferreira Douglas de Souza , Sousa Gabriel Barreto de
Published: January 2025

Introdução: As fraturas da extremidade distal do rádio são comuns, representando entre 10% e 25% das fraturas. Não há consenso sobre o melhor tratamento para fraturas desviadas, instáveis e intra-articulares, e há escassez de estudos sobre imobilização no pós-operatório. Este estudo avaliou os desfechos funcionais e radiográficos com ou sem imobilização pós-operatória em osteossíntese do rádio distal. Objetivos: Avaliar os desfechos funcionais (PRWE, DASH e EVA) e complicações em fraturas do rádio distal com ou sem imobilização. Método: Ensaio clínico prospectivo e randomizado com 38 pacientes (18-60 anos), divididos em dois grupos (19 pacientes cada). Todos foram tratados com redução aberta e fixação interna, com seguimento mínimo de 3 meses. Os desfechos foram avaliados com PRWE, DASH e EVA, além de radiografias pré e pós-operatórias. Resultados: A idade média foi 42,35 anos, com predominância do lado esquerdo (57,8% imobilizados; 68,4% não imobilizados) e traumas de alta energia. PRWE: 14,2 (imobilizados) vs 11,8 (não imobilizados). EVA: 4,12 (imobilizados) vs 2,89 (não imobilizados). Não houve diferenças radiográficas significativas. Diferenças estatísticas foram observadas em amplitude de movimento e força, sendo maiores no grupo não imobilizado. Conclusão: Ambos os grupos apresentaram bons resultados funcionais e radiográficos, porém o grupo não imobilizado mostrou resultados superiores em força de preensão e flexão do punho.

Essa fruta é considerada uma boa fonte de nutrientes e uma alternativa econômica para a população local. O presente estudo buscou investigar propriedades físicas (ou biométricas) em frutos colhidos em Belém do Pará, bem como propriedades físico-químicas de suas polpas. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que as características dos frutos estão de acordo com resultados presente na literatura e a fruta apresenta um baixo rendimento em polpa. Apresenta boa qualidade físico-química, mas seu pH é elevado, suscitando cuidados em seu armazenamento para evitar perdas por deterioração microbiológica.
DATAÇÕES DO HOMEM NO BRASIL E A ARQUEOLOGIA NACIONAL SEGUNDO A PERSPECTIVA DECOLONIAL
Authors: Silva Marina Almeida da
Published: January 2025

O estudo do período pré-histórico, devido à ausência de registros escritos, depende de estudos arqueológicos que buscam datar a presença humana. No Brasil, descobertas arqueológicas, como dentes de 12.000 anos e pinturas rupestres com mais de 20.000 anos, são evidências significativas, amplamente documentadas em publicações nacionais. No entanto, essas contribuições enfrentam apagamento científico, influenciado por uma herança acadêmica cética e pela forte interferência ocidental e estadunidense na arqueologia do país ao longo da história. Essa influência subestimou as descobertas locais, gerando pouco reconhecimento dos estudos brasileiros. Propõe-se, com o presente artigo, entender a história da disciplina de Arqueologia no país e apresentar uma abordagem decolonial para valorizar nossos achados e superar a marginalização científica, promovendo o reconhecimento da importância do patrimônio arqueológico nacional.

Authors: Panguraj Antony Ronald Reagan
Published: January 2025

Cooperate measures of emergency preparedness and response are important in preventing high loss of life and
destruction of property during disaster. However, the impact varies by population and, in particular, age distribution,
which requires individualised strategies. This paper aims at identifying which approach of Data Analytics and / or
Artificial Intelligence can be utilized to develop age-sensitive emergency planning. It could enable disaster response
teams to pin-point the exact needs of any age group and ensure that the business comes up with intervention
solutions for that particular age sets. For instance, children, senior citizens and persons with disabilities during
disasters, may have special needs, like the need for help to be evacuated or maybe need medical attention. AI models
can be employed to estimate how specific population age groups will likely react and how susceptible they are to
specific dangers so the responders will know where to allocate resources. The following research questions guide
this paper based on the current literatures on disaster response, demographics, and artificial intelligence in
emergency initiatives: This paper gives a roadmap of how these issues can be aligned to a common plan that
enhances disaster risk management. The proposed solution is aimed at strengthening people’s disaster preparedness
and response, as the approach considers age-related aspects at every stage. Finally, communities will enhance their
capabilities to address disasters through analysing data and incorporating Artificial Intelligent systems for people
of all age.

Published: January 2025

An micro irrigation system was developed to optimize water use for agricultural crops. The system has a distributed wireless network of soil-moisture and temperature sensors placed in the root zone of the plants. In addition, a gateway unit handles sensor information, triggers actuators, and transmits data to a web application. An algorithm was developed with threshold values of temperature and soil moisture that was programmed into a microcontroller-based gateway to control water quantity. The system had a duplex communication link based on a cellular-Internet interface that allowed for data inspection and irrigation scheduling to be programmed through a web page. The micro system was tested in a sage crop field for 136 days and water savings of up to 90% compared with traditional irrigation practices of the agricultural zone were achieved. Three replicas of the micro system have been used successfully in other places for 18 months. Because of its energy autonomy and low cost, the system has the potential to be useful in water limited geographically isolated areas.

Bipolar hemiarthroplasty in late-geriatric femoral neck fracture: Impact on survival and quality of life
Authors: Akbar Muhammad Rifqi Farizan , Irianto Komang Agung , Widajanti Novira
Published: January 2025

Femoral neck fractures in late geriatric patients pose significant challenges. This study aims to evaluate the effects of bipolar hemiarthroplasty on the 5-year survival rates and quality of life of late geriatric patients with femoral neck fractures. This longitudinal study involved patients over 75 years old who underwent bipolar hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fractures. The Harris Hip Score (HHS) and the SF-12 were used to assess postoperative hip function and overall quality of life. The Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) was employed to evaluate comorbid conditions. Pearson or Spearman tests were used to measure the correlation between HHS, SF-12, and CCI. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to visualize survival trends. A total of 150 patients were included. The results of CCI and survival rate are CCI of 3 (mean 4.15 years); CCI of 4 (mean 4.10 years); CCI of 5 (mean 3.5 years); and CCI of 6 (mean 2.9 years). The most common preoperative condition among patients was Garden type III femoral neck fractures (56%). The hazard ratio increased by 1.398 (p = 0.005) as the CCI value increased. The survival rate for most patients in this study was over three years (52.6%). The average quality of life score for patients (Short Form-12) was 37.65 for physical components and 46.58 for mental components. Quality of life and hip function in late geriatric patients after bipolar hemiarthroplasty are low, with CCI linked to survival. This highlights the need for thorough preoperative evaluation and targeted rehabilitation.
El derecho a no aportar informaciÃ³n al procedimiento administrativo en el contexto de la transformaciÃ³n digital
Authors: Delgado BaÃ­dez JosÃ© MarÃ­a
Published: January 2025

Esta obra nace de la observaciÃ³n de una de las paradojas mÃ¡s llamativas de nuestra praxis jurÃ­dico-administrativa, el incuestionable desfase que existe entre el empeÃ±o del legislador en proclamar de manera, en ocasiones contundente, el derecho que asiste a los interesados a no aportar al procedimiento documentaciÃ³n innecesaria o que ya obre de alguna forma en poder de las Administraciones pÃºblicas y la escasa aplicaciÃ³n prÃ¡ctica que este derecho ha alcanzado en la experiencia administrativa cotidiana.Se trata de una anomalÃ­a que impone a los particulares una carga penosa y con frecuencia evitable que entorpece el funcionamiento armÃ³nico de la relaciÃ³n jurÃ­dico-administrativa. El enfoque adoptado se centra en los problemas que plantea en la prÃ¡ctica la reducciÃ³n de la carga documental que soportan los administrados, en la consideraciÃ³n de esta cuestiÃ³n desde la perspectiva de la AdministraciÃ³n electrÃ³nica, asÃ­ como en el estudio de las consecuencias jurÃ­dicas de la vulneraciÃ³n del derecho a la no aportaciÃ³n documental y de los mecanismos de defensa con los que cuenta el ciudadano para responder a eventuales infracciones de este derecho.Al margen de la evidente relaciÃ³n del derecho a la no aportaciÃ³n de informaciÃ³n con la simplificaciÃ³n administrativa en general y con la reducciÃ³n de cargas en particular, bajo este asunto subyace una cuestiÃ³n aÃºn mÃ¡s sugerente para el jurista. En el fondo de este asunto nos encontramos con un problema de carga de la prueba, dado que del derecho a no facilitar documentaciÃ³n a la AdministraciÃ³n debe derivarse, al menos en teorÃ­a, el de no tener que acreditar ni su existencia ni su contenido ante el Ã³rgano tramitador.
Abusos sexuales en la Iglesia Cat´ólica
Authors: Ríos Martín Julián Carlos , Herrera Goicoechea Clara
Published: January 2025

Este libro está escrito desde la experiencia de la facilitación de procesos restaurativos con personas adultas que sufrieron abusos sexuales en su infancia y en el contexto de instituciones eclesiásticas en España. Intentamos aportar algunas ideas y perspectivas desde las que abordar la gestión de tales abusos con un horizonte de reconciliación (justicia, verdad, reparación, responsabilización, memoria y garantías de no repetición) y que fueron cometidos por religiosos y sacerdotes diocesanos en el seno de la Iglesia Católica.El objetivo buscado es compartir aprendizajes y propuestas a partir de la facilitación de veinticinco procesos restaurativos en el contexto de victimización sexual de menores por personas adultas (profesores, sacerdotes, religiosas) pertenecientes a instituciones de la Iglesia Católica. En dichos procesos han participado dieciséis personas que fueron abusadas, trece personas que agredieron, y cuatro provinciales y representantes de congregaciones religiosas y dos personas en calidad de cónyuge y amigo personal de la víctima. Los procesos restaurativos han sido encuentros y círculos entre víctimas y representantes de la institución, encuentros directos entre víctima y agresor-a y círculos entre la víctima y otras personas religiosas de la época.

En los últimos años, la historiografía literaria española ha prestado una notable atención a la influencia de las antologías poéticas en los procesos de canonicidad, un interés que ha coincidido con una intensa labor de revisión de los catálogos editoriales y de los planes de estudio con el objetivo de paliar la ausencia de las escritoras en ellos. Sin embargo, hasta la fecha, el análisis de las relaciones entre las poetas y las antologías se ha llevado a cabo, por lo general, desde un enfoque filológico, a menudo enriquecido por las aportaciones del ámbito de la historia de las mujeres, algo que, si bien ha supuesto avanzar en la preparación de una nómina más inclusiva para definir la historia de la literatura española del siglo xx, no ha profundizado en lo que, tempranamente, Iris M. Zavala señalaba en la presentación a su Breve historia feminista de la literatura española como uno de los mayores retos: la «actividad desmitificadora y descentralizadora que aspira a reconocer el conflicto de discursos (y proyectos de futuro) de los textos culturales». Partiendo de esta premisa, este estudio tiene como objeto repensar las relaciones entre las poetas y los órganos de reconocimiento en el período comprendido entre 1944 y 1965, momento en el que ciertas selecciones ejercen una notabilísima influencia en la elaboración del canon poético posterior.El análisis se apoya en una comprensión de las antologías como un objeto cultural de gran relevancia para la circulación de las obras poéticas y para la proliferación de ciertas imágenes de las poetas incluidas y excluidas, que constituye no una mera recopilación de textos sino una obra nueva, derivada de la lectura y la reescritura. En definitiva, al definir las antologías como lecturas firmadas, esta investigación pretende subrayar que los instrumentos de selección de los que disponen determinados individuos para dar voz a la cultura no son neutrales, y que, en consecuencia, no se trata únicamente de denunciar la reducida presencia de nombres de mujer de las antologías contemporáneas, sino de ahondar en el significado de las prácticas interpretativas.
CULTURA DE FRONTERA, MEMORIA Y PATRIMONIO CULTURAL
Authors: Hernández León Elodia
Published: January 2025

¿Cómo se define el patrimonio cultural cuando existen continuidades y discontinuidades propias de la de las fronteras políticas interestatales? ¿Se truncan las escalas en la frontera y son los patrimonios locales representativos de la comunidad nacional/ estatal? ¿Es posible poner en valor un patrimonio inmaterial de relaciones transfronterizas que haga emerger las memorias invisibilizadas que cuestionan las barreras estatales? ¿Puede el uso turístico de este patrimonio detener el estancamiento de esas zonas periféricas? Estas cuestiones surgen al acercarnos al estudio del patrimonio cultural en las fronteras en donde se trunca el sentido unívoco de representación de la nación original del propio concepto de patrimonio cultural. A estas cuestiones nos acercamos en esta obra, en la que se recogen los avances del proyecto «Memorias de Frontera en el Sur Ibérico» (2020/22) de la Universidad Pablo de Olavide. Acotamos el estudio de la cultura de frontera a su expresión patrimonial y a los territorios fronterizos, principalmente ibéricos, sin reducir con ello la complejidad y variedad de temáticas a las que nos enfrentamos y que recorremos en estas páginas. El libro está organizado en tres partes, en las que se tratan, en primer lugar, los paisajes culturales y las arquitecturas transfronterizas, luego, los patrimonios inmateriales que emergen de los contactos entre ambas márgenes y que pueblan las memorias locales (lenguas compartidas, el contrabando, las fiestas...) y, finalmente, el turismo de frontera y algunas experiencias de cooperación en los patrimonios limítrofes

Published: January 2025

In order to find strategies for the sustainable development of industry-education integration in higher vocational colleges in Guangdong Province, this paper takes 384 students and 361 teachers from 5 higher vocational colleges in Guangdong Province, seven senior education managers from 5 higher vocational colleges, and three senior business managers from 3 enterprises as the research subjects. This study designed a questionnaire for students and teachers to analyze the factors affecting the development status of industry-education integration at four levels: the government, higher vocational college, enterprise, and student levels. The results show that although students and teachers of higher vocational colleges in Guangdong Province believe that the overall development status of industry-education integration is at a high level in all four aspects, there are still deficiencies in government policy support, higher vocational colleges in teacher talent construction, enterprises in capital investment, and students in practical ability. In order to bridge these gaps, this study used SWOT-PEST analysis and TOWS analysis and proposed a set of targeted strategy drafts, which cover four aspects and a total of 37 measures. Finally, 25 senior education managers conducted focus group discussions on the draft strategies. Eventually, they formed a strategy covering four aspects and a total of 19 measures, including five measures at the government level, five for higher vocational colleges, five for enterprises, and four measures for students. In order to verify the feasibility and adaptability of the strategy, 25 experts from 5 higher vocational colleges were invited to evaluate the strategy. The strategy evaluation experts believed that the overall feasibility and adaptability of the sustainable development strategy of industry-education integration in higher vocational colleges in Guangdong Province were at the highest level (x̄=4.51) and (x̄=4.68), respectively. These strategies provide feasible methods for the sustainable development of industry-education integration in higher vocational colleges in Guangdong Province. These can help higher vocational colleges improve the quality of talent training, enhance students' employment competitiveness and adaptability, and promote industrial development and social progress.

Published: January 2025

We explored college faculty members’ perception of their supporting student’s psychological well-being. College faculty members, being leaders in teaching their students, may perceive their responsibility of supporting their student’s psychological well-being based on their current mindset, level of preparation, and challenges they face. Our literature search resulted in no studies focusing on college faculty members’ perception of supporting their student’s psychological well-being. Using a mixed-methods approach, we had 242 faculty members from post-secondary educational institutions complete a survey consisting of qualitative and quantitative items. The results indicated that participants’ mindsets may influence how they perceive their responsibility in supporting students’ psychological well-being and preparation and challenges faculty can limit faculty members’ support for students’ psychological well-being.
Opening India to International Competition in Government Procurement Markets: CEPA with UAE a Breakthrough?
Authors: Górski Jędrzej , Bhukya Kanishka
Published: January 2025

The India-UAE Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (‘CEPA’) is a landmark in India’s public procurement policy, introducing substantial liberalisation commitments for the first time. Historically insulated from international procurement obligations, India’s previous agreements, such as with Japan, were limited in scope. The CEPA, concluded in 2022, includes Chapter 10, which mandates significant procurement reforms. This article assesses whether the CEPA signifies a transformative change or a minor adjustment. Part II explores the global framework for public procurement under International Economic Law (‘IEL’) and Global Administrative Law (‘GAL’), focusing on the WTO Government Procurement Agreement (‘GPA’) standards. It details GPA’s non-discrimination and coverage provisions, essential for fair international competition. Part III outlines India’s procurement landscape, emphasising its protectionist history and current regulations. Part IV delves into Chapter 10 of the CEPA, analysing India’s negotiation history and the chapter’s specific provisions. The article concludes by evaluating the CEPA’s potential to open India’s procurement market to international competition, enhancing efficiency and aligning with global practices. This agreement could mark the beginning of significant changes in India’s approach to public procurement.
Economic and Social Rights, Corruption, and Covid-19: The Indian and South African Experiences
Authors: Pillay Anashri
Published: January 2025

India and South Africa have been at the forefront of debates about economic and social rights for many decades. Whilst the apex courts in these states have led the way in interpreting and handing down remedies stemming from these rights, vast social and economic inequalities persist. This article uses the responses to Covid-19 as a basis to consider how corruption has affected the realisation of economic and social rights in each of these countries. The article goes on to address broader arguments about the value of international human rights in tackling corruption. A human rights perspective is a relatively recent addition to the anti-corruption discourse. It is recognised that human rights approaches face the criticism of being, at best, vague and, at worst, counterproductive. Whilst acknowledging the salience of these critiques and noting that a more refined understanding of the nexus between corruption and rights is needed, the article argues that human rights discourse has a valuable role to play in corruption reform measures.
De impact van doelmatigheids- en doeltreffendheidsonderzoek van de Algemene Rekenkamer op de rijksoverheid

De impact van doelmatigheids- en doeltreffendheidsonderzoek van de Algemene Rekenkamer op de rijksoverheid

Rekenkamers zijn de afgelopen decennia steeds meer de doelmatigheid en doeltreffendheid van overheidsbeleid gaan onderzoeken, wat doorgaans onder de vlag van ‘doelmatigheids- en doeltreffendheidsonderzoek’ (DDO) door het leven gaat, of ‘performance audit’ in internationale kringen. Er is echter bijzonder weinig systematisch empirisch onderzoek gedaan naar deze onderzoeken en er is veel debat of dit type onderzoek überhaupt impact heeft.

Wij presenteren in dit artikel het eerste kwantitatieve onderzoek naar de impact van DDO op de Nederlandse rijksoverheid, op basis van een survey onder beleidsambtenaren van Nederlandse ministeries die meewerkten aan rekenkameronderzoek tussen 2018 en 2021. We gebruikten hiervoor een wetenschappelijk gevalideerde enquête die eerder werd toegepast in Canada en België.

Met deze enquête konden wij drie verschillende soorten impact onderscheiden: instrumentele, conceptuele en strategische impact. De gepercipieerde impact van de Nederlandse rekenkamer blijkt gematigd te zijn, maar wel iets groter dan die van Canada en zeker dan die van België. Hierbij gaat het volgens de respondenten primair om conceptuele impact en beperkter om instrumentele en strategisch impact. In Nederland valt verder de individuele kwaliteit van de rekenkameronderzoeker en diens communicatievaardigheden op als voorspeller voor impact. Wanneer deze factoren door de geënquêteerden minder goed worden beoordeeld, neemt de impact af. Dit effect strekt zich ook uit tot het mesoniveau, waar – niet verrassend – de wil van beleidsmedewerkers om iets met het rekenkamerrapport te doen van cruciaal belang blijkt. In de literatuur worden betrokkenheid van parlement en media vaak genoemd als factoren die de impact versterken. Opvallend genoeg lijken in Nederland media en parlement nauwelijks een rol te spelen bij het verklaren van impact van rekenkameronderzoek.

Liquid biopsy has emerged as a transformative tool in oncology, offering a non-invasive alternative to traditional tissue biopsies. One approach utilizes circulating tumour cells (CTCs) from body fluids such as blood, urine, and saliva to provide insights into tumour genetics and dynamics. A method for isolating CTCs uses the dielectrophoresis phenomenon and microfluidic platforms. The present work reviews the advances in dielectrophoresis on a chip. First, we present the fundamental theory of dielectrophoresis, followed by the main operating principles. We further discuss some of the separation techniques using dielectrophoresis. We finally present the main challenges and concluding remarks. We finally present the main challenges and concluding remarks. Translating DEP technology from lab-scale to industrial applications remains challenging due to the complexities of creating large-scale, non-uniform electric fields.

Energi terbarukan merupakan jenis energi yang berasal dari sumber daya alam yang tidak akan habis pakai atau dapat dipulihkan secara cepat. Salah satu bentuk Energi terbarukan adalah Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Mikro Hidro (PLTMH) yang dapat digunakan sebagai sumber tenaga listrik. Sumber PLTMH berasal dari aliran air yang dapat menghasilkan energi listrik. Alat ini menggunakan generator DC yang dikombinasikan dengan pipa PVC untuk mengubah energi kinetik air menjadi listrik Direct Current (DC) 12V. Tenaga listrik yang dihasilkan kemudian distabilkan menggunakan solar charger controller (SCC) lalu kemudian disimpan dalam akumulator. Tenaga listrik DC ini diubah menjadi listrik Alternating Current (AC) 220V dengan menggunakan inverter, sehingga tegangan AC 220 V dapat digunakan untuk memenuhi kebutuhan listrik rumah tangga. Perancangan Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Mikro Hidro (PLTMH) dapat digunakan sebagai pasokan listrik cadangan yang andal dan ramah lingkungan, terutama di daerah yang sering mengalami gangguan pasokan listrik dari jaringan utama.

Published: January 2025

Placental mesenchymal dysplasia (PMD) is a very rare vascular placenta anomaly, characterized by an enlarged placenta with grape-like vesicles. Initially, the disease can be mistaken for a molar pregnancy on ultrasound, but the condition is not a trophoblastic disorder, and presents with unique diagnostic and clinical features. Genetically, there is an association with androgenic/biparental mosaicism which can be confined to the placenta but also can be present in the fetus, and there is an increased risk of imprinting disorders such as Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome. Obstetrically, PMD is associated with fetal growth restriction, preeclampsia, preterm delivery, and increased risk of intrauterine fetal demise. Thus, PMD is often associated with severe maternal and/or fetal complications, and this case illustrates the challenge in the diagnosis and prenatal counseling.

Authors: Tsvyetkov Andriy
Published: January 2025

In this study, the role and place of the National Bank of Ukraine in the context of the countryʼs integration into the European Union and possible entry into the Eurozone are investigated. The experience of the central banks of European Union countries that have adapted to the requirements of the European System of Central Banks and the European Central Bank was analysed. The purpose of the research was to study the issues of harmonisation of legislation, monetary policy, financial stability, institutional independence and macroeconomic convergence. The study outlined the main stages that the central banks of the European Union member states went through before and after joining the Eurozone, as well as the challenges they faced during this process. Particular attention was paid to the role of the National Bank of Ukraine in preparing for the implementation of the Copenhagen criteria and integration. The study identified key areas for reforming the legal regulation of the Ukrainian banking system to ensure effective implementation of European monetary policy requirements: strategic priorities that the National Bank of Ukraine should take into account to maintain macroeconomic stability and convergence with the Eurozone. The paper emphasised the importance of the National Bank of Ukraineʼs institutional independence, coordination with fiscal authorities, and transparency in decision-making. It was argued that the experience of Central and Eastern European countries is an important benchmark for Ukraine, as it allows avoiding mistakes and implementing effective reforms. The study provided recommendations on the role of the National Bank of Ukraine in ensuring economic stability, creating conditions for sustainable growth, and approximation to European Union standards
