Study Of The Grain Growth Of Nd-Fe-B Atomized Powders With Different Nd Contents And The Addition Of Nb And Ga As Doping Metals
Authors: Checa Fernández B. L , Martín J.M , Sarriegui G. , Burgos N.
Published: September 2023

This work presents a detailed study of grain growth annealing of gas-atomized Nd-Fe-B powders with different Nd contents, ranging from 27.5 to 31.5 wt.%. The influence of Nb or Nb-Ga additions have also been investigated. First, the microstructure of the as-atomized powders was studied and the initial grain size was measured. Grain growth annealing has been carried out at 1150 ºC for 5 hours. The addition of Nb resulted in a decrease of the final grain size due to the refining effect of Nb-Fe rich compounds and the reduced amount of free Nd to form a liquid phase. Moreover, it has been determined by Thermo-Calc simulations that Nb content in the liquid increases when the Nd content decreases, further enhancing the refining effect. In contrast, Ga addition increased the liquid formation and enhanced the grain growth kinetics, particularly in the samples with the lower Nd content.
Study Of The Mechanical Properties Of A Cu/CF Composite With Zrc Interphase
Authors: Charteau Mélanie , Gauthier-Brunet Véronique , Audurier Valérie , Silvain Jean-François , Joulain Anne
Published: September 2023

Electronic devices present a large coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) mismatch between the copper thermal drain and the ceramic and silicon parts. This CTE mismatch causes thermomechanical stresses at the component interfaces (solder joint) resulting in component and/or solder joint failure. Copper composites reinforced with carbon fibres are materials of choice to overcome this drawback due to their expected adaptive CTE. To ensure good transfer of properties, chemical bonding between the matrix and reinforcement is necessary. The challenge of this work is to synthesize these composites, by hot uniaxial pressing, and to produce in-situ Zr-based interphase during the densification step. The microstructure and the chemistry of the matrix and of the interfacial zones, will be finely characterized by optical, scanning and transmission electronic microscopy.

Published: September 2023

Tungsten heavy alloys are liquid phase sintered two-phase materials in which tungsten grains are embedded in an austenitic base matrix. While the solubility of W in the binder phase is high both at sintering temperature, when the binder phase is liquid, and also after cooling, the solubility of the binder elements in the W phase is very low, but the exact content has been a matter of discussion for a long time. In the present study, laser ablation induction coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) has been employed for analyzing the Ni and Fe content in the W phase of W-Ni-Fe heavy alloys, using specifically prepared low-binder specimens for calibration. It showed that the binder element content is in fact significantly lower than presented in the literature, LA-ICP-MS yield-ing contents of approx. 340 µg/g for Fe and 60 µg/g for Ni.
Effectiveness of corticosteroids in the treatment of patients with Covid 19
Authors: Bhinder Preet Pal
Published: September 2023

The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus has emerged as one of the most significant health crises of the 21st century, with a devastating impact on global health. Understanding the disease pathogenesis and finding effective treatment strategies are crucial to mitigate its mortality rate. COVID-19 exhibits a biphasic illness, characterized by a viral response phase followed by a hyperinflammatory response phase, also known as the cytokine storm. This cytokine storm, rather than direct viral activity, has been identified as the major contributor to the high mortality associated with severe cases.

In this article, we explore the effectiveness of corticosteroids in managing the cytokine storm and reducing mortality in COVID-19. Corticosteroids have been extensively studied for their immunosuppressive properties and have shown potential in suppressing the hyperinflammatory response associated with the disease. The RECOVERY trial, a large-scale multicenter clinical trial conducted in the UK, demonstrated a significant reduction in mortality with the use of corticosteroids, particularly in critically ill patients requiring invasive mechanical ventilation.

However, the timing of corticosteroid therapy initiation is crucial, as early administration or use in milder cases may not yield the same benefits and could potentially increase mortality. Current evidence suggests that corticosteroids should be reserved for hospitalized patients with severe COVID-19, specifically those requiring oxygen therapy or invasive mechanical ventilation. In contrast, corticosteroid therapy has shown limited or even detrimental effects in non-severe cases.
Adaptogenic plants within food supplement
Authors: Agarwal Anshul
Published: September 2023

Adaptogenic plants have been recognized for their ability to enhance the body's capacity to adapt and withstand various stressors. This article explores the concept of adaptogens and their role in promoting resilience, tolerance, and adaptation to stress. Plant adaptogens are preferred over synthetic alternatives due to their safety, ability to normalize body functions, and the complex combination of compounds they contain. These natural extracts work synergistically to provide health benefits, unlike isolated compounds. Adaptogens act on multiple levels, modulating immunity, endocrine function, neurotransmitters, and signaling pathways. They help maintain homeostasis and can be used to prevent and manage health disorders resulting from imbalances in the body. The modern lifestyle's increasing prevalence of lifestyle disorders necessitates the consideration of adaptogenic food supplements. These supplements can prevent chronic diseases, improve quality of life, and counteract the declining ability of the body to combat stress. Taking adaptogens in the form of gummies offers distinct advantages, including convenience, compliance, and higher bioavailability. Gummies bypass the liver's first-pass metabolism, ensuring the efficient absorption of active ingredients. As adaptogens are often used long-term, gummies provide a suitable and enjoyable means of incorporating these beneficial plant extracts into daily routines. Choosing high-quality brands is essential for optimal results.
Use of differentiated Instruction in LSP Courses in Moroccan Higher Education
Authors: Tirizite Youssef , Marjane Driss
Published: September 2023

Differentiated instruction is an umbrella term that covers a wide range of instructional strategies that aim to level the playing field by addressing diverse learners’ needs. Equally, LSP pedagogy is predicated on the identification and acknowledgment of learners’ needs. Both approaches incorporate pedagogical practices derived from the principles of learner-centered teaching. The integration of differentiated instruction practices into LSP pedagogy can potentially result in more effective learning and learner satisfaction.This study sought to survey LSP instructors’ views and perceptions about the use of differentiated instruction in higher education. Data was collected using a questionnaire with closed-ended questions. Participants included twenty LSP instructors teaching English and French at a large polytechnic university in Morocco. The majority of the participants placed a high value on the use of differentiated instruction in LSP courses. A number of implementation barriers were identified. Although differentiated instruction is considered to be an effective instructional approach, institutional constraints may hinder its potential benefits.

Published: September 2023

This study aimed to describe the views of social studies practice teachers on culturally responsive pedagogy (CRT). A qualitative-descriptive research design was employed, utilizing a written interview guide to collect data from eight purposefully selected social studies practice teachers. Thematic analysis was employed in analyzing data, with Culturally Relevant Pedagogy Theory serving as the theoretical framework. The findings revealed five meaningful categories that encapsulated the views of social studies practice teachers on CRT. Firstly, in terms of academic success, CRT was viewed to foster a positive learning environment and employ relevant pedagogies. Secondly, regarding cultural competence, CRT was viewed to establish sensitivity towards diversity and promote healthy coexistence. Lastly, in relation to sociopolitical consciousness, CRT was viewed to encourage active citizenship. This study holds educators to benefit from the insights gained, as they provide guidance on creating a positive learning environment and developing strategies that cater to culturally diverse students.

Published: September 2023

Contextualized teaching strategies are instructional approaches that relate learning to a specific environment, scenario, or application area to target relevant skills and aid students’ learning. This study explored the various contextualized teaching strategies employed by elementary school teachers in their instruction of Indigenous People (IP) learners. This descriptive-qualitative research employed in-depth interviews to gather data and analyzed using thematic analysis. Two significant themes emerged, namely the integration of local materials and the Glocal Approach. Likewise, the integration of local materials includes reading materials, modules, and contextualized storybooks, while the glocal approach includes the use of springboard, differentiated instruction, one-on-one sessions, and equity pedagogy. Providing IP learners with strategic contexts improves their learning process by inspiring interest, curiosity, motivation, and engagement with knowledge.

Authors: Patnaik Varsha , Prakash Sumin
Published: September 2023

Mental health condition plays a prime role in the learning attitude, receptiveness of students, trainees as well as others who are involved in teaching and learning activities. While India is looking forward for quality education for all, the mental health conditions of teachers to be through professional training processes need to be understood well. As India has a strong polarized concept of space and related amenities between rural and urban areas it is more essential to understand the mental health conditions across these location spectrum. Mental health of teacher trainees of Arunachal Pradesh has been used to understand the impact of facilities and amenities on them. Responses of a total of 200 trainees’ with 100 each from the Itanagar Capital Region (ICR) and Rest of Area (RoA) have been analyzed. It is found that there is no significant difference in the mental health scores between trainees of ICR and RoA. However it is found that there is a concentration of mental health condition is around moderate and high mental health categories for trainees in ICR; whereas, mental health scoring pattern by the trainees in RoA is dispersed.
Specifies, trends models and effects of development and reform of urban transport in the Visegrad group countries after the collapse of the regimes of „real socialism”
Authors:   Akademia Nauk Stosowanych Gospodarki Krajowej, Białobłocka Magdalena
Published: September 2023

The article deals with analyzing the historical trends and political, social and economic preconditions for the formation and reformation of urban transport and urban transportations in the Visegrad Group countries – Poland, Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic – firstly in the communist and post-communist periods and later after the European integration of the region. On this basis, the specifics, trends, models and effects of the development of urban transportations in the Visegrad Group countries for the entire period after the collapse of the regimes of “real socialism” have been clarified. It has demonstrated that currently urban transportations, in particular due to their incomplete reformation or involvement, are not at the appropriate level to overcome the existing modal split between road and rail transport in the Visegrad Group countries, even in spite of the fact that the countries of the region had tested different models of development and reformation of their urban transport.
Towards the essence, importance and rethinking of the phenomenon of party government in European representative democracies.
Authors:   Akademia Nauk Stosowanych Gospodarki Krajowej, Białobłocki Zbigniew
Published: September 2023

The article is devoted to analyzing the nature and attributes of party government and party governance in European representative democracies, in particular at the background of the relationship between the state, parties and civil society. As a result, attributes have been identified that indicate the expediency of forming party governments for representative democracies, but also some defective manifestations of party government and alternatives to party government have been outlined. On this basis, it is stated that party governments are the “standard” of representative democracies among European countries, although they are or may be characterized by both immanent and congenital defects and distortions associated with the phenomenon of party patronage, the difference between political and bureaucratic components of governance, “decline” or “crisis” of the concept and phenomena of party in Europe, etc. In other words, it is specified that visually, constructively and by the nature of parliamentary support, party governments have been and remain predominant ones in European representative democracies, but they have more and more obvious alternatives, including in the format of non-party and semi-party governments.
Never ending political transition in Ukraine at the background of the experience of central and eastern European countries: dynamics and correlation of political regimes and systems of government
Authors:   Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, Lytvyn Vitaliy
Published: September 2023

The article tests the assumption that political transition in some countries can be incomplete, at least for a very long period of time, or restored even after the completion of democratization and consolidation of democracies. This is done based on both the modernization, as well as transitological and institutional interpretation of political transition. Empirically, the comparative analysis was carried out on the basis of the case of Ukraine, particularly by taking into account the dynamics of development and making a correlation between the options (more democratic or more autocratic) of hybrid political regime and various options of systems of government (primarily semi-presidentialism) in Ukraine. It is stated that semi-presidentialism can certainly contribute to democratization and completion of political transition in Ukraine, but only in the case of further approval and prolongation of its premier-presidential, rather than president parliamentary version. This partly corresponds to the logic and choice of systems of government in Central and Eastern European countries, which use parliamentarized systems of government.
Peculiarities and varieties of the institution of monarchy and comparison of the powers of monarchs in European countries.
Authors:   Akademia Nauk Stosowanych Gospodarki Krajowej, Białobłocki Michał
Published: September 2023

The article examines the peculiarities and varieties of the institution of monarchy, as well as offers a comparative analysis of the powers of formal and informal authority of monarchs in European countries. On this basis, it was checked whether the power of monarchs is a factor in the success and prosperity of monarchies. The author stated that there is no really strong monarch on the territory of Europe at the present stage, and almost all the countries considered are constitutional monarchies, where a monarch and his or her actions are significantly limited by constitution, traditions, laws, government and parliament. This is due to the fact that the heads of state in the democratic countries of Europe govern, but do not rule and do not manage, as well as instead perform nominal and symbolic roles. Oddly enough, this is one of the reasons for the success and prosperity of monarchies, although the hypothesis that the power of monarchs correlates with the development results and prosperity rating of certain states has not been directly proven.
The meaning and purpose of political/parliamentary opposition in the conditions of presidential and other options of non-parliamentary democracies in the world.
Authors:   Akademia Nauk Stosowanych Gospodarki Krajowej, Białobłocki Tomasz
Published: September 2023

The article considers and systematizes the meaning, functionality, optionality and consequences of political, as well as parliamentary opposition in the conditions of presidential and other options of non-parliamentary democracies in the world. It is stated that the opposition in the case of presidential or non-parliamentary democracies should be considered more broadly, but also in a slightly different sense than within parliamentary democracies. In particular, due to the fact that it is not an alternative to the executive, but is a manifestation or a mechanism of checks and balances in the conditions of a “rigid” separation of powers. In addition, it is found that the political opposition in presidentialism is determined by various institutional and political factors that can act as veto players, in particular by federal system, bicameral parliament, type of party system, qualities of the head of state, etc. This “broadens” the spectrum of political opposition in the case of presidential or non-parliamentary democracies, but does not strengthen parliamentary opposition in such political systems. Thus, it is proven that parliamentary opposition in non-parliamentary democracies is significantly more limited than in the case of parliamentary democracies, but in general political opposition here is much more “broader”.
Importance and influence of parliamentary committees in the conditions of minority governments’ functioning: theorizing and findings in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe.
Authors:   Akademia Nauk Stosowanych Gospodarki Krajowej, Panczak-Białobłocka Nadija
Published: September 2023

The article analyzes the importance and influence of parliamentary committees in the conditions of minority governments at the theoretical level and empirically, in particular in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. The author assumes that the legitimate mechanism of people’s representation in countries of this type is the parliamentary method of government formation and responsibility. Therefore, governmental cabinets, including minority ones, depend on party composition of parliaments in their formation, functioning and responsibility. It was suggested that the frequency of minority governments’ formation is additionally determined by the specialization of parliaments, in particular through the prism of parliamentary committees as an arena of government-opposition relations, where the opposition almost always prevails in the case of minority governments. However, it was analytically proved that the committees themselves, in particular their various attributes and “power”, do not or almost do not affect the frequency of minority governments’ formation in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. At the same time, the strengthening of committees can serve to strengthen parliamentary opposition, which contributes to the increase in frequency of minority governments’ formation.

Published: September 2023

The pressure on the agriculture sector has significantly grown due to the fast rising trend of global population growth, which is predicted to reach more than 9 billion by 2050. In the meantime, the issues related with emission of greenhouse gases (GHG) and the decreasing supply of fossil resources are eliminating traditional farming practices. The agriculture sector is looking to feed the increasing population in more sustainable way with the access of technology based on renewable energy. Solar energy is one of the most accessible types of renewable energy when applied to farm uses. Solar photovoltaic (PV) technology has been used to generate the necessary energy to operate number of equipment used in agricultural throughout the years, including drying of crop, irrigation through pumping, greenhouse and dairy farming. In present work, an attempt has been made to evaluate the performance of solar photovoltaic system. The parameters such as ambient temperature, panel temperature, open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current, energy and exergy efficiencies were determined during experiment. Energy and exergy efficiencies during the day was ranged from 10.11–13.35% and 10-13.29%, respectively. It has been found that the exergy efficiency of PV modules was significantly influenced by the temperature, and that the exergy efficiency may be increased by removing heat from the PV module surface.

Published: September 2023

Aquatic macrophytes are essential to the fish community because they offer food, protection from predators and shelter. The present study deals with the influence of the distribution and abundance of aquatic macrophytes on stream fishes. Twenty-one species of aquatic plants and 13 associated fish species were identified during the study period of January-December 2019. In the study stream, the abundance of aquatic flora positively impacted the fish community. Certain aquatic macrophytes were highly preferred by individual fish species in the area. The Podostemonads formed a major plant group along the stream. Emergent plants, especially Lagenandra toxicaria played an important role in maintaining the composition of the fish community. Hypselobarbus kurali is a known genus of food fish, and they exhibited affinity to the area covered with Lagenandra toxicaria. Hydrilla verticillata, the submerzed plant showed extensive growth during monsoon and supported a large number of Haludaria fasciata.

Published: September 2023

The soil-test crop response (STCR) approach, which is currently gaining prominence for sustainable nutrient management, aims to adjust fertilizers for desired yield based on soil-test values.The STCR-based experiment was conducted for the desired maize production targets in alluvial soil of multiple locations of Persiya village in Naugharh block of Chandauli district, Uttar Pradesh during kharif 2019. It is important to test the developed fertilizer prescription equation to show how well technology is delivered to those who need it. A series of tests were set up in five locations in village Persiya to see how well fertilizer recommendations worked. First, the soils of the chosen area are examined for available N, P, and P. Control (T1), farmer behaviors (T2), the usually recommended fertilizer dosage (T3), and STCR-based fertilizer doses (T4 and T5) are among the treatments for yield targets of 30 and 35 q ha-1. The treatments were incorporated, cultivation procedures were followed on a consistent basis and yield of grains was recorded at harvest. The percentage increase in yield and benefit-cost ratio (B:C) were estimated using data on grain production and fertilizer dosages. The research findings revealed that the percent the accomplishment of the intended yield was within 10% fluctuation in all locations, showing the accuracy of the equations for prescribed integrated fertilizer dosages for maize. The highest percent increase in production was achieved in the yield of 35 q ha-1 (42.03%) followed by 30 q ha-1 (11.03%) beyond the prescribed fertilizer dosage (RDF). STCR 35 q ha-1 had the highest mean grain yield (3695.40 kg ha-1). STCR 35 q ha-1 had the highest benefit-cost ratio (3.76), followed by STCR 30 q ha-1 (3.46). The established maize fertilizer prescription equations may be advised for alluvial in eastern Uttar Pradesh in order to achieve a yield target of 35 q ha-1thereby resulting in greater economic yield. As a result, on tropical soils, an integrated STCR targeted yield method could prove to be the best feasible option for increasing maize productivity.

India is fully blessed with different kinds of agro-climatic regions. Production wise our country is standing at second rank throughout the world. Some of agricultural products from India are very high in demand in many parts of the globe. Counting its agro-climatic regions, the North East Region (NER) is another hot spot acquired a land of agriculture as well as forest area. The each states of NER having its own peculiarity for various agro products. They used to cultivate many crops which include export level to their daily delicacy. Ginger, Turmeric, Chili, Beans and bamboo products are produced in large quantities. As per the statistics, Mizoram is the highest ginger producing state (8.4 tons/hec) followed by Arunachal Pradesh (7.9 tons/hec), Assam and Nagaland (6.99 tons/hec) among the states of NER. Apart from cultivation, 60% area of NER comes under forest cover, especially Mizoram, where more than 80% of the geographical area of the state is under forest and tree cover. Looking into the prospects of diverse agricultural land settings and forest cover including biodiversity of medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs), Mizoram could be potential state in relation to agribusiness. There is a tremendous scope for MAPs sector in the state. Valuable MAPs like Homalomena aromatica, Alpinia galanga, Cinnamomum tamala, C. verum, Mentha arvensis, Artemisia pollens, Ocimum sanctum, Elsholtzia communis and many others are traditionally cultivated on very small scale. Thus, there is a need to introduce good agricultural practices (GAPs) for increasing the raw materials/yield to establish the agri-market in Mizoram.

Adapun teknik analisis data dalam penelitian ini penulis menggunakan teknik content analysis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa, hukum tafwidh mahar adalah boleh namun makruh, Karena sunat hukumnya menyebutkan mahar dalam akad nikah. Meskipun ada beberapa kasus yang mewajibkan penyebutan mahar. Adapun tafwidh mahjur alaih (yang terlarang menggunakan harta) dan terhadap saghirah (perempuan yang masih kecil) tidak sah dan apabila telah berlaku tafwidh secara sahih (sah), maka akibat hukum yang timbul yaitu menurut pendapat yang kuat dengan semata-mata akad tidak mewajiblkan apapun kepada mempelai suami untuk diberikan kepada mempelai isteri. Namun apabila berlaku tafwidh yang fasid (rusak, tidak sah), maka wajib membayar mahar mitsil dengan terlaksananya akad nikah. Maka dapat dipahami dari konteks pembahasan di atas hanya dengan akad saja tidak dapat mewajibkan apapun terhadap suami bagi isteri, akan tetapi kewajiban suami untuk memberikan hartanya adalah dengan sebab suami menentukan kadar mahar atau bersenggama ataupun dengan sebab kematian. Tiga unsur itu yang menyebabkan mahar wajib diberikan kepada isteri, meskipun ketiganya itu berpunca pada akad.
Mashlahah menurut Izzuddin Abd Al-Salam

Published: September 2023

Penulis tertarik mengkaji lebih lanjut tentang pemikiran Izzuddin bin Abd as-Salamdalam konsep mashlahah yang secara tidak langsung menolak pandangan kebanyakan ulama dalam defenisi dan pembagian mashlahah dan berbedanya pandangan Izzuddin bin Abd assalam dengan ulama yang lain tentang mashlahah, dari berbagai karya beliau. Sehingga dapat menarik benang merah inti sentral dan stukrur fundamental terhadap pemikiran Izzuddin bin Abd as-Salam dapat dilihat dengan jelas. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kepustakaan (library research). Jenis penelitian ini adalah kualitatif. Pendekatan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan deskriptif-analisis. Adapun kesimpulan dalam penilitian ini ada dua: Mashlahah menurut para ulama di era sebelum Izzuddin bin Abd al-Salam lebih dominan kepada menghasilkan mashlahah pada penetapan sebuah hukum disaat tidak ditemukan hukum secara jelas dalam nash, seperti mashlahah menurut Imam Haramain dan al-Amudi, dan lebih kepada melestarrikan tujuan syara’ seperti mashlahah menurut al-Ghazali . Yang membedakan mashlahah menurut Izzuddin bin Abd al-Salam dengan yang lainnya adalah pada penentuan mashlahahnya. Mashlahah yang dimaksud oleh Izzuddin bin Abd al-Salam lebih umum dan menyeluruh tanpa memandang individual manusia. Dalam artian semua yang dapat mendatangkan kemaslahatan baik bersifat hakiki ataupun majazi, dan imam Izzuddin bin Abd al-Salam tidak mengkhususkan. Mashlahah seprti ahli bahasa dan juga tidak memakai makna Mashlahah yang dipakai oleh kebanyakan ulama ushul. Adapun perbedaan yang lain berdasarkan pembagian mashlahah adalah membagi mashlahah menjadi beberapa pembagian dengan sudut pandang yang berbeda yang semuanya terkandung dalam mashlahah yang bersifat duniawi dan ukhrawi

Introduction: Abdominal trauma, specifically hemoperitoneum due to retroperitoneal injury, represents a challenge for the surgeon who works in the emergency department. Hemoperitoneum due to rupture of a branch of the dorsal superior pancreatic artery is not frequent; the pancreas is a retroperitoneal organ that, due to its location, is difficult to be affected by trauma. Objective: to contribute to medical knowledge by presenting a case of hemoperitoneum due to a lesion in a branch of the superior pancreatic artery. Material and method: Description of a clinical case and review of the literature. Presentation of the Case: a 51-year-old male patient, with a history of chronic alcoholism, who was admitted to the hospital in the surgery department for having had a blunt abdominal trauma of two days of evolution, had intense diffuse abdominal pain, did not expel feces or gas, tachycardic, with an abdominal ultrasound that reported free fluid in the cavity. He was taken to the operating room, finding hemoperitoneum due to a retroperitoneal bleeding lesion, specifically from a bleeding vessel from the superior dorsal pancreatic artery. After surgery, the patient evolved favorably and was discharged. Conclusions: hemoperitoneum due to pancreatic artery injury is not frequent, so sometimes there is a delay in the diagnosis, which threatens a good patient evolution, which justifies the morbidity and mortality in these cases.

The work of the social worker in health during the COVID-19 pandemic period has been the subject of debates and academic productions about the category’s professional performance in Brazil. Significant considerations were given to changes in work processes and service flows, such as the call centre modality, issues that pervade the professional ethical and political dimensions, along with daily interprofessional relations in each social space. Therefore, the goal of this study was to conduct an integrative review of published articles that highlighted the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the work of health social workers at a time when the category was on the “front line” of serving the population. The methodology employed was a bibliographic survey of articles published in Brazil that were fully available in the databases Scielo, Lillacs, BVS, Portal CAPES, PUC, UFRJ, and Google Scholar. Four articles from experience reports that met the inclusion criteria were chosen and analysed. The findings show that social workers in the country were committed to ensuring population access to clinical protocols and changes in flows appropriate to the pandemic and guided by WHO - World Health Organization, in accordance with the legal bases present in its specific legislation, the principles of the Code of Ethics and the Political Ethical Project, the Parameters of Action of Social Workers in Health, as well as the guidelines of the CFESS-CRESS.
مطالعه مقایسه ای بین اثرات ماده ضدعفونی کننده و میدان های شعوری طاهری بر ویروس SARS-CoV-2

ویروس کرونای بسیار مسری و تهدید کننده زندگی SARS-CoV-2 که از دسامبر 2019 باعث شیوع جهانی شده است (19-COVID) یک ویروس بتا کرونا است که به سرعت گسترش یافته و به یک بیماری همه گیر جهانی تبدیل شده است. برای کنترل انتشار عمومی ویروس از انواع مختلفی از ضدعفونی کننده ها استفاده می شود. میدان های شعوری طاهری (ط) که توسط محمد علی طاهری معرفی شد، میدان های بدیعی هستند که نه ماده هستند و نه انرژی. بنابراین، غیرقابل اندازه گیری بوده و نمی توان آن ها را مستقیما مشاهده یا اندازه گیری کرد. با این حال، اثبات و اندازه گیری اثرات این میدان ها از طریق آزمایش های علمی استاندارد امکان پذیر است. مطالعه حاضر، با هدف مقایسه اثر میدانهای شعوری (ط) با ماده ضد عفونی کننده هیپوکلریت سدیم بر ویروس SARS-CoV-2 انجام گرفت. برای ارزیابی اثر میدان های شعوری (ط) و ماده ضد عفونی کننده و نیز ترکیب آنها بر SARS-CoV-2 ، از تست CPE (بررسی اثر سیتوپاتیک)، محاسبه پنجاه درصد دوز عفونی (TCID50)  و ( Ct value ) real time RT-PCR استفاده شد. نتایج ما کاهش یا حذف ویروس زنده را در گروه های تحت درمان همزمان با هیپوکلریت سدیم و میدان های شعوری (ط) نشان داد. اگرچه میدان های شعوری (ط) توانستند از میزان آلودگی ویروس بکاهند، اما هنوز TCID50 و توانایی عفونت زایی ویروس وجود داشت. به نظر می رسد که استفاده از میدان های شعوری (ط) همراه با مواد ضد عفونی کننده ممکن است بتواند اثر ترکیبات مواد ضد عفونی کننده را افزایش دهد. بر اساس یافته ها، تحقیقات بیشتر به منظور درک بهتر اثرات میدان های شعوری (ط) بر روی ویروسها توصیه میشود.
