O feitor ausente(?)
Authors: Barbosa da Silva Wellington
Published: October 2024

No Brasil Império, a dinâmica da vida urbana era garantida, em sua maior parte, pelo trabalho dos negros escravizados. Exercendo atividades que iam desde o transporte de pessoas e cargas até a manutenção de um buliçoso comércio ambulante, eles movimentavam as engrenagens da economia citadina. Por conta das especificidades do seu trabalho nas ruas, não havia entre eles a figura do feitor típico das plantagens – fazendo com que eles desfrutassem de uma liberdade de movimento jamais alcançada pelos cativos das áreas rurais. Porém, isso não significa que vivessem sem nenhum tipo de restrição, pois, nas cidades, os feitores eram substituídos por aparatos de vigilância vinculados ao Estado. Tendo como recorte espaço-temporal o Recife do século XIX (1830-1850) e baseado em documentos manuscritos e impressos e em uma bibliografia pertinente ao tema, este artigo analisa as especificidades do trabalho escravo e a eficiência da polícia no tocante ao controle dos escravizados.

Faktor – Faktor yang Mempengaruhi Return on Asset PT. Bank Syariah Indonesia KCP Iskandar Muda
Authors: Sinuhaji Endo Masika , Yanti Nur Santri
Published: October 2024

Analysis of profitability developments is one of the indicators carried out by banks to see or detect the magnitude of changes in the results of transactions carried out. Among them, measuring the level of profitability by measuring return on assets (ROA). The reason for using Return on Assets (ROA) to measure bank profitability is because Bank Indonesia, as a banking supervisor, prioritizes the profitability of a bank as measured by assets. Most of its funds come from public deposits. The higher the bank's profit, the better the bank's position on the use of assets. Therefore, ROA is used in this study as an indicator of the financial performance of Islamic banks.

This essay examines the vivid implications of the nursing profession’s migration on the quality of healthcare delivery system in Nigeria. Several factors, including unfavourable working conditions, low remuneration, cloudy prospects for professional advancement, and inadequate infrastructure, contribute to the migration of nurses abroad. The implication of such movement result to understaffing, inadequate care quality, excess work load for the remaining healthcare professionals, and hampered healthcare delivery are all effects of brain drain. These difficulties make healthcare inequities worse and obstruct initiatives to enhance Nigerian health outcomes. Comprehensive approaches to improving working conditions should be prioritised by boosting pay and benefits to reflect fairness, offering chances for professional steady progression, fortifying the healthcare system, and putting in place measures to keep qualified healthcare professionals in the workforce becomes significant to the improvement of the healthcare system of Nigeria to combat brain drain. Nigeria may enhance its healthcare system and increase its population’s access to high-quality healthcare by reducing brain drain and investing in the nursing workforce.
Fluctuations of the Real Exchange Rate and the Structure of the Iraqi Economy
Authors: Yaqub Kamaran Qader
Published: October 2024

This paper analyzes how a boom in the oil sector affects the relative prices of non-tradable goods compared to tradable goods, the real exchange rate, and the competitiveness of Iraq’s broader economy. As the oil sector booms, Iraq’s currency appreciates, which reduces the competitiveness of the country’s traditional export sectors. This thesis investigates the presence of Dutch Disease in Iraq, an area previously unexplored. It evaluates the impact of growing oil revenues on the non-oil sectors of the economy and provides empirical evidence showing a contraction in the tradable goods sector and an appreciation of the real exchange rate. The findings suggest that Iraq experienced symptoms of Dutch Disease, including real exchange rate appreciation, a shrinking tradable goods sector, and an expanding non-tradable goods sector. Ultimately, the appreciation of the real exchange rate is responsible for shifting Iraq‘s economy from manufacturing and agriculture (tradable sectors) to construction and services (non-tradable sectors).

Published: October 2024

Anomalies and defects in the manufacturing process hinder operating efficiency and product quality. The Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) optimizes the XGBoost model for better anomaly identification by iteratively refining hyperparameters. Experiments using real-world manufacturing datasets prove proposed model works. Comparing the proposed model to traditional anomaly detection methods shows its superior performance in industry patent concept. The optimized XGBoost model's interpretability and anomaly detection features are also discussed. In this paper, WOA is applied in this work to optimize hyperparameters of XGBoost, a robust gradient boosting technique for accurate anomaly detection in manufacturing systems. Optimized XGBoost gained 1.00 precision value, 0.9 recall value and 0.96 f1-score for class 0.0 and gained a 0.95 precision value, 1.00 recall value, and a 0.97 f1-score for class 1.0. The proposed model gained 0.993 Train Score and 0.964 Test Score. Our findings suggest that integrating XGBoost with the WOA may uncover manufacturing process irregularities. Optimization improves detection accuracy and provides a flexible and interpretable framework, helping modern industrial processes maintain quality and efficiency. This research encourages machine learning optimization for industrial patent applications, advancing anomaly detection methods.

Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are considered the optimal artificial light source for plant factories, yet further research is needed to understand the impact of LED light quality on plant growth. This experiment investigated the growth and development of butter lettuce under varying ratios of red and blue light provided by LEDs. The specific effects of different red and blue light quality ratios on butter lettuce growth were systematically tracked and recorded, with comprehensive measurements of growth parameters and photosynthetic characteristics. Empirical findings revealed that a higher red light component compared to blue light led to improved butter lettuce characteristics. These included increased leaf length and width, elevated plant height, higher relative chlorophyll content, and an increased net photosynthetic rate. The study also highlighted that the light quality requirements of lettuce fluctuate across different growth stages, allowing for adaptable modulation of lighting conditions to align with specific growth stage needs.Total fresh weight, total dry weight and dry matter content of lettuce reached the highest values in the R8B2 treatment with 80% red light and 20% blue light, and the percentage differences reached 29.2%, 23.1% and 13.9%, respectively. Additionally, the photosynthetic chlorophyll content and net photosynthetic rate exhibited maximum percentage differences of 22.22% and 14.6%, respectively. In conclusion, the experimental evidence supports that an R8B2 spectral composition (80% red and 20% blue light) in a controlled indoor setting represents the optimal light environment for the accelerated growth and superior quality of butter lettuce.

Authors: Reeve Justine
Published: October 2024

More Dance Improvisations builds on the success of its predecessor, Dance Improvisations, and offers 78 brand-new activities that have been tested and refined by author Justine Reeve, a veteran dance instructor and choreographer.

This text offers a wealth of creative ideas that instructors can use to help their dancers explore and experience movement. The 78 improvisation tasks and exercises support all portions of a dance class, from improvisation lessons, warm-ups, and games that stimulate creativity to choreographic tasks for creating movement material. These new activities will provide an invaluable source of creative ideas for all dancers, including those who are exploring their own professional practice.

More Dance Improvisations offersexpert instruction in planning, teaching, and assessing students’ improvisations;a choreographic toolkit and glossary of dance and choreographic terms;step-by-step instruction and teaching tips that will save instructors preparation time; andextensions of each improv to aid further exploration and development of the improvisation skills.

Instructors can use the improvs for individual lessons or in developing an entire lesson plan. “The improvisation tasks and exercises will encourage dancers’ imaginative responses to a varied selection of stimuli, whether alone or in groups,” says author Justine Reeve. “These improvisations will give dancers the keys to unlock ideas that they will find useful on their choreographic journey.”

After an introductory chapter that covers many important topics on conducting safe and effective practices and workshops and on how to use the book, the text moves into its first set of improvisations: warm-up games. These games develop quick thinking, group thinking, movement communication, and an awareness of the needs and movements of others.

The next two chapters explore solo and duo improvisations as well as group creative tasks. Each improvisation task has a brief description, an image, numbered tasks for clarity, a teaching tip, and ideas to take the task further or develop the dance idea as appropriate.

Chapter 5 explores how the physical and aural setting can lead to creating interesting and considered dance. Chapter 6 encourages dancers to use movements, phrases, and sequences created in previous tasks to develop and structure the movement material into something new.

“These games, tasks, ideas, stimuli, and developments are here to give instructors and students a little push to find creative vision, explore movement, and discover how these ideas can be developed, adapted, and structured,” says Reeve. “Instructors will find new ways to help their dancers create original movements through both individual and group activities, and students will gain inspiration through using these improvisations.”

More Dance Improvisations promotes creativity that leads to innovative breakthroughs for students from middle school through college. It is the perfect resource to help dancers enjoy their exploration of movement and dance as they gain greater awareness of the capabilities they possess.
One-year outcomes after intraocular collamer lens implantation in hyperopic astigmatism: a retrospective single-center study
Authors: Al Somali Abdulaziz Ismail
Published: October 2024

Background: Astigmatism is the most prevalent refractive error among children and adults, and it can lead to visual impairment if left uncorrected. The management of compound hyperopic astigmatism is more challenging. This study presents the 12-month outcomes of toric implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation in eyes with hyperopic astigmatism.
Methods: This interventional case series included patients with simple or compound hyperopic astigmatism who underwent toric ICL implantation. All eligible individuals underwent a detailed ocular examination. Uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity (UDVA and CDVA, respectively), intraocular pressure, and manifest and cycloplegic refraction results were documented. Pentacam corneal tomography was performed to assess the central corneal thickness, iridocorneal angle width, and anterior chamber depth. Endothelioscopy was performed to determine endothelial cell density. The ICL V4b model was implanted in all the included eyes. Safety and efficacy indices were calculated as postoperative CDVA/preoperative CDVA and postoperative UDVA/preoperative CDVA, respectively.
Results: Twenty-six eyes with low-grade simple or compound hyperopic astigmatism were included. All eyes experienced a significant improvement of four lines in postoperative UDVA (P < 0.001), and their postoperative CDVA remained stable at the 12-month follow-up (P > 0.05). The safety and efficacy indices were 1.0. None of the eyes lost two or more lines of CDVA; in 81% of the eyes, CDVA was unchanged, and the proportion of eyes with 20/30 or better postoperative UDVA was identical to that with 20/30 or better preoperative CDVA (81% for each). The mean manifest spherical equivalent at the 12-month postoperative visit had significantly improved (P < 0.001). The percentages of eyes with postoperative spherical equivalent within ± 0.50 D and ± 1.00 D were 81% and 96%, respectively. The postoperative refractive cylinder improved significantly (P < 0.05), and the percentage of eyes with refractive cylinder within ± 0.50 DC and ± 1.00 DC were 50% and 77%, respectively.
Conclusions: Our outcomes indicate that toric ICL implantation is safe and effective for managing low-grade simple or compound hyperopic astigmatism. The proportion of eyes with 20/30 or better postoperative UDVA was identical to that with a 20/30 or better preoperative CDVA. The manifest spherical equivalent and refractive cylinder were significantly reduced. No serious safety concerns were observed. Further prospective large-scale studies with a wide range of ages and grades of hyperopic astigmatism are required to verify these preliminary outcomes.
Cahen, M. Colonialidade: Um apelo à precisão de um conceito. Paris: Éditions Karthala, 2024.

O livro Colonialité: Plaidoyer pour la précision d’un concept, de Michel Cahen, ainda não publicado em português, é uma contribuição importante para se avançar no debate sobre a questão colonial na América Latina e no Caribe, no atual momento. Embora o autor, que é professor da Universidade de Bordeaux, França, apresente-se como estudioso da colonização portuguesa na África, ele revela, de fato, uma leitura própria muito pertinente das linhas principais do debate sobre a questão decolonial na América Latina. Isto pode ser facilmente comprovado quando analisamos suas críticas às obras de Aníbal Quijano, Walter Mignolo, Maria Lugones e Arturo Escobar que são alguns dos principais representantes deste debate desconstrucionista inspirado pela teoria da linguagem, e que prosperou na América Latina há algumas poucas décadas, e, no Brasil, com intensidade nos últimos anos. O autor tem uma redação fluida e apoia suas reflexões numa bibliografia pertinente sobre o tema da questão colonial, em geral, que ajuda a aprofundar sua crítica sobre o decolonial.
CONCESSÃO DO SERVIÇO DE GÁS CANALIZADO: ASPECTOS JURÍDICOS, REGULATÓRIOS E ECONÔMICOS
Authors: Levita Dann d’Avila
Published: October 2024

The concession of natural gas services in Brazil is regulated by the Federal Constitution, the Concessions Law (Law No. 8,987/1995) and the Gas Law (Law No. 14,134/2021), which regulates the transportation and commercialization of natural gas. With the approval of the New Gas Law (Law No. 14,134/2021), the sector underwent significant changes, aiming to promote competition and attract new private investments. The legislation seeks to guarantee the economic-financial balance of contracts, free access to infrastructure and reasonable tariffs. The gas distribution service is the responsibility of the States, and supervision is carried out by regulatory agencies. Recent jurisprudence from the Superior Court of Justice (STJ) has reaffirmed the need for efficiency and continuity in service, in addition to ensuring respect for consumer rights and balance between concessionaires and the granting authority. The evolution of the gas regulatory framework is an important step towards the country’s sustainable and energy development.

This paper analyzes the challenges and strategies of educational management in the post-COVID-19 pandemic context, focusing on the teaching-learning process. The pandemic has had a profound impact on the educational sector, requiring a restructuring of pedagogical and administrative practices. The objective of the research is to investigate how school management can help students overcome the learning gaps generated during remote and hybrid teaching, adopting innovative and inclusive practices. The methodology employed consists of a literature review and a qualitative survey with school managers, where data were collected on the strategies implemented. The results indicate that flexible, collaborative, and technology-oriented management is essential for educational success in the post-pandemic period. It is concluded that educational management must adapt to new realities, promoting the integral development of students and the recovery of learning gaps.
Isolated intestinal manifestation of an invasive varicella zoster virus reactivation in an immunocompromised patient: a case report
Authors: Maly M , Coppens G
Published: October 2024

Invasive varicella zoster infection is a rare but severe infectious disease, potentially affecting almost every organ system and presenting with a variety of symptoms. It is usually seen in immunocompromised patients, but also occurs in immunocompetent patients. Isolated intestinal manifestations without skin lesions are even more scarce. We present a case of a 78-year old immunocompromised man with an isolated intestinal Varicella Zoster reactivation. If not early diagnosed and treated, an invasive infection can lead to life-threatening complications. Therefore, awareness in both immunocompromised as immunocompetent patients is very important in the daily clinical practice.

Background: Functional constipation (FC) is a geriatric syndrome that is common in the older adult’s population and can seriously affect the quality of life and may be a frequent cause of hospital visits. In this study, we planned to investigate the relationship between FC and its related factors for in older outpatients.

Patients and methods: Participants aged 65 and over who applied to the geriatrics outpatient were included in the study. The diagnosis of FC was made according to the presence of the Rome IV criteria. Frailty was screened by the using FRAIL scale, ≥ 3 a score of were evaluated as frail. Participants quality of life was evaluated by Euro-Quality of Life Visual Analog Scale (EQ-VAS).

Results: The study included 602 participants. FC prevalence was found 28.7%. In univariate analyses, FC was found related to age, having a diagnosis of depression or Parkinson diseases, frailty, urinary incontinence, sleep disorders, number of chronic diseases, and EQ-VAS. In multivariate analyses, FC was not found to be associated by the frailty while the number of chronic diseases [OR=1.212, 95%CI (1.084-1.355), p=0.001] and EQ-VAS were found to be related [OR=0.988, 95%CI (0.978-0.997), p=0.012].

Conclusion: In the results of this study, FC was not found to be associated by frailty in older outpatients but it emerged as a syndrome that should be screened frequently in patients with a high number of chronic diseases and a low general quality of life.

Published: October 2024

A Santa Casa de Misericórdia de Sobral (SCMS) foi inaugurada no dia 24 de maio de 1925 e tem como missão desempenhar uma assistência com visão humana e abrangente a todos os pacientes. A enfermaria integrada de Clínica Médica da SCMS, denominada SÃO JOAQUIM, foi inaugurada em 2002, funcionando atualmente como principal referência para a região norte do estado do Ceará em Hematologia, Nefrologia, Oncologia, Reumatologia, bem como de diversas outras especialidades clínicas. Além da sua dimensão assistencial, a partir do ano de 2007, a SCMS passou também a ser um hospital de ensino e conta com um Departamento de Ensino, Pesquisa e Extensão (DEPE) que desenvolve tecnologia de ponta em parceria com universidades. Desse modo, esta obra produzida por médicos residentes, internos e orientada por Médicos preceptores da residência e Clínicos que fazem parte da composição do TRR, muitos deles que já integraram esse mesmo time anteriormente na condição de residentes, reflete um pouco da história da residência de clínica médica da Santa Casa, que tem como um dos principais valores: oferecer aos pacientes internados uma assistência médica qualificada e humanizada. Nessa perspectiva, surge esta obra, buscando trazer o que tem de mais atual na elaboração de condutas para as intercorrências clínicas no paciente internado. Assim, trazendo mais segurança aos profissionais e alunos, que prestam essa assistência e, principalmente, para os pacientes que a recebem e que estão sob nossos cuidados, eles devem ser nossa principal motivação para buscar aprimoramento técnico constante.
