Background: Toxoplasmosis is a worldwide-distributed infection that can cause serious diseases, mainly in congenitally infected and immunodeficient individuals. PCR assays play an indispensable role in the detection of Toxoplasma gondii in different biological samples.
Methods: This study was conducted in the Parasitology Department at Pasteur Institute of Iran (Tehran) during 2016-2018. We designed a highly sensitive quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) targeted REP-529, a noncoding repetitive DNA. We cloned the amplicon in a plasmid (pTZREP-529) and used it to generate the standard curve. The Toxoplasma RT-qPCR characteristics, i.e., detection limit, specificity, linear dynamic range, linearity, intra-, and inter-assay precisions, were determined. The detection limit of the assay was one plasmid copy number (PCN) per reaction (about 0.004 T. gondii genome), and the linear dynamic range was equal to 6 logs (1× 101 to 1× 107 PCN per reaction).
Results: The assay showed no signal when genomic DNA of Plasmodium falciparum, Leishmania major, and Trichomonas vaginallis were used. The standard curve was drawn using dilutions of pTZREP-529 plasmid spiked with genomic DNA from a mouse brain, and test characteristics were shown unaffected. Applying the Toxoplasma RT-qPCR, we showed brain cysts were significantly decreased in mice vaccinated with GRA2 antigen of Toxoplasma formulated in Monophosphoryl Lipid A (MPL) adjuvant.
Conclusion: We have developed a quantitative, specific, and highly sensitive PCR for detecting T. gondii in biological samples.

Published: November 2021

Objective: This study aimed to compare women’s body image, sexual function and satisfaction before and after gynecologic cosmetic surgery. The study also aimed to assess women husband’s sexual satisfaction.
Materials and methods: This was a pretest-posttest study. A sample of 50 women attending the pelvic floor clinic of Tehran University of Medical Sciences for gynecologic cosmetic surgery was entered into the study. Surgeries included labiaplasty, clitoral hoodectomy, vaginoplasty, vaginal rejuvenation, anterior and posterior colporrhaphy, perineoplasty, and perineorrhaphy. Women were assessed for the Body Image Quality of Life Inventory (BIQLI), the Larson Sexual Satisfaction Questionnaire (LSSQ-F), and Female Sexual Function Inventory (FSFI-6) at two points in time: baseline (one week before surgery) and 3 months after surgery. Similarly, the male partners were assed for sexual satisfaction using the Larson Sexual Satisfaction Questionnaire (LSSQ-M). To analyze the data paired samples t-test was applied.
Results: The mean (SD) age of women was 43.36 (8.6) years and the mean (SD) duration of marriage was 22.18 (9.7) years. Ninety-four percent had history of vaginal delivery and 58.7 percent attend surgery due to husband’s sexual dissatisfaction. The results showed that women’s body image, sexual function and couples’ sexual satisfaction improved significantly after gynecologic cosmetic surgery (p ≤ 0.001).
Conclusion: The findings suggest that female genital cosmetic surgery improved the body image and sexual function of women and sexual satisfaction in couples that might lead to a more pleasurable and healthier marital relationship.
An Infertile Azoospermic Male with 45, X T(Yp;15) Karyotype
Authors: Abi Maryam , Hassanlou Maryam , Narimani Nima , Zamani Marzieh , Moeini Zahra
Published: November 2021

Objective: 45, X is a very rare condition that usually results from Y/autosomal translocations or insertions. Here we present an infertile azoospermic man who had 45, X t(Yp;15) karyotype and deletion of AZF (azoospermia factor) gene region.
Case report: A 35-year-old infertile azoospermic man with a typical male appearance came for infertility genetic counseling. He was infertile for more than ten years and had short height. High-resolution of metaphase chromosomes of 50 peripheral white blood cells were analyzed for karyotyping. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis and Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) were done for SRY and AZF gene localization. Karyotyping and FISH analysis revealed 45, X t(Yp;15) karyotype and no mosaicism. More investigation on the Y chromosome revealed no deletion in the SRY region, but AZF a/b/c were deleted. It was revealed that Yp's subtelomeric region but not Yq was translocated to chromosome 15.
Conclusion: This study shows that despite the lack of a complete Y chromosome in this person, the occurrence of secondary male traits is a result of the short arm translocation of the Y chromosome, which contains the (ex-determining region Y) SRY gene. Infertility is also due to the Y chromosomes long arm's deletion containing the AZF gene region.

Introduction: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the retina diseases in which retinal pigment epithelium cells are degraded and lead to blindness. Available treatments only slow down the progression of it. In this study, human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) differentiated into retinal pigment epithelium cells were cultured on a polycaprolactone scaffold.
Methods: The optimization of the diameter of the produced scaffolds by electrospinning method was done using the fuzzy method for the first time. To improve cell adhesion and proliferation, related parameters to alkaline hydrolysis method were optimized and hydrophobic surface of scaffold was modified. After in vitro analysis, cells were cultured on different groups of scaffolds. In vivo analyses were done and cells culture on scaffolds observed.
Results: The optimal parameters for the scaffold based on the fuzzy model were 18.1 kV for voltage, 0.07 g / ml for solution concentration and 115 nm for scaffold diameter, respectively. The immersion time of the scaffold in alkaline solution and concentration of solution were measured 97 min and 3.7 M, respectively. The treated scaffold had a higher degradation rate and water adsorption. MTT-Assay results showed that scaffolds with modified surfaces had a higher amount of cell viability and proliferation after 7 days. SEM image results confirmed this finding after almost two months. Additionally, the results of ICC test showed that after passing this time, cells kept their RPE and epithelium.
Conclusion: Based on the results, the hydrolyzed scaffold is a suitable substrate for cell proliferation and can be a good option for AMD treatment.

Abstract A person becomes a Muslim convert because he believes in Islamic teachings' goodness, benefits, and truth. On the other hand, converts of Dayak Meratus generally still have many shortcomings and problems carrying out their new religion. Thus, the guidance of Dayak Meratus converts must be carried out by Muslims. It is still unclear that the guidance carried out for Dayak Meratus converts raises how the basic strategy for cultivating Dayak Meratus converts in South Kalimantan is necessary. Religion, supporting and inhibiting factors for converting. Data collection was carried out by observing, interviewing, and opening up documents that could present facts and events in the field. The interactive analysis process is in the following order: data collection, data condensation, data modeling, and describing and verifying conclusions. This research found that the convergence coaching program was made in detail by coaches who were in the field to suit field conditions. Dayak Meratus converts' religious guidance is carried out by using a family approach, warmth, meeting intensity or always being close to converts, teaching the practice of worship, muamalah, and instilling faith. The inhibiting factors for conversion are; lack of dai, converts are scattered over a wide area, it is challenging to gather at one place, the busyness of converts who make a living to a remote area.

Przemiany w partiach postkomunistycznych państw postjugosłowiańskich
Authors: Wojnicki Jacek
Published: November 2021

Po rozpadzie Jugosławii na początku lat 90. XX wieku, pojawiła się potrzeba stworzenia nowych partii politycznych. Należy podkreślić, że władze federacji nie zdołały wypracować żadnego wspólnego scenariusza zmian, dlatego sytuacja w poszczególnych republikach rozwijała się pod znaczącym wpływem lokalnych elit. Poniżej zostaną zaprezentowane przez Autora scenariusze zmian wewnątrz republikańskich organizacji partii komunistycznej (SKJ).
Interwencja humanitarna NATO w Kosowie – na drodze do wykształcenia normy prawnej
Authors: Dróżdż Dominika
Published: November 2021

Celem rozważań Autora jest przedstawienie różnych stanowisk na temat interwencji humanitarnych, do których należała interwencja NATO w Kosowie w 1999 r. Tematyka ta daje możliwości do sprecyzowania przesłanek i zasad prowadzenia interwencji humanitarnych przez NATO na terytorium Kosowa czy Bośni i Hercegowiny. Interwencja taka miała w założeniu prowadzić do stabilizacji i bezpieczeństwa oraz transformacji ładu politycznego na terytorium Bałkanów Zachodnich. W konsekwencji zajęto się organizacją administracji objętych uprzednio interwencją terytoriów. Zmieniła się także sytuacja w Serbii zmuszonej do pogodzenia się ze zmianą statusu Kosowa, które otrzymało autonomię, a później niepodległość.
Jugonostalgia jako zjawisko społeczno-kulturowe
Authors: Rekść Magdalena
Published: November 2021

Niniejszy tekst jest próbą spojrzenia na fenomen jugonostalgii — idealizacji przeszłości, którą tak niedawno skwapliwie negowano. Jako istotne jawi się zwrócenie uwagi na ciepłe wspomnienie o Jugosławii, ogarniające narody dopiero co wkładające wiele wysiłku w oddzielanie się mentalnymi murami. Niezrozumiała może się wydawać tęsknota za państwem przedstawianym w skrajnie negatywnym świetle, określanym mianem więzienia narodów, komunistycznym tworem fałszującym autentyczne tożsamości etniczne. Mimo to ludzie bardzo chętnie powracają do wspomnienia o wspólnym, jugosłowiańskim domu, i jak mówią: „Yugoslavia is always in my heart”.
Macedońska pamięć historyczna. Imaginarium pomnikowe
Authors: Moroz-Grzelak Lilla
Published: November 2021

Autorka pracy skupiła się na pamięci historycznej , jako bardzo ważnym elemencie scalającym wspólnotę państwową, przypominającym o jej wartości i miejscu w świecie. Macedonia, powstała po upadku Jugosławii potrzebowała bohaterów. Duchowa więź Słowian macedońskich z zamieszkiwanym terytorium jako sferą własnych przodków sprawiła, że do rodzimej tradycji asymilowano postacie antyku i średniowiecza, podkreślając ich związki w przeszłości z tą przestrzenią i konstruując w ten sposób własny panteon narodowy. W tym kontekście kwestią drugorzędną pozostaje fakt, że włączono doń postacie, które znalazły swe miejsce także w bułgarskiej, serbskiej czy greckiej spuściźnie kulturowej.
Wybrane zagadnienia ustrojowe współczesnej Republiki Serbii
Authors: Bujwid-Kurek Ewa
Published: November 2021

Za główny cel badawczy Autorka przyjęła omówienie systemu naczelnych organów państwowych Republiki Serbii w świetle zapisu konstytucji Serbii z 2006 r. Analizie poddane zostaną: Zgromadzenie Narodowe (Narodna Skupština) Republiki Serbii, instytucja prezydenta, rząd, Sąd Konstytucyjny, którego rola w omawianym systemie jest szczególna. Także warta uwagi wydaje się instytucja Obrońcy Obywatela (Ombudsman), choć nie będąca w ścisłym tego słowa znaczeniu elementem składowym aparatu państwowego, to jednak mająca niebagatelne znaczenie jako przykład instytucji stojącej na straży praworządności, zwłaszcza we współczesnej Republice Serbii. Analiza ta ma posłużyć ustaleniu, czy ustrojodawca serbski w wystarczającym stopniu zadbał o to, by konstytucyjny zapis dotyczący wyżej wymienionych organów państwa był adekwatny do wymogów demokratycznego ustroju politycznego.
Współpraca regionalna na Bałkanach Zachodnich z perspektywy Unii Europejskiej. Przesłanki i przeszkody
Authors: Paszkiewicz Jędrzej
Published: November 2021

Autor w swoje pracy omawia szeroko rozumianą współpracę między Bałkanami Zachodnimi a Unią Europejską. Połączenie zagadnienia stabilizacji regionalnej z kwestią przygotowania poszczególnych krajów do członkostwa w Unii zostało uwidocznione tuż po zakończeniu działań wojennych w Chorwacji oraz Bośni i Hercegowinie. W dokumentach unijnych pojawił się wówczas aktualny do dzisiaj termin Bałkany Zachodnie. Pojęcie to dotyczy państw aspirujących do Wspólnoty, w większości z obszaru postjugosłowiańskiego, które borykają się ze zbliżonymi przeciwnościami społeczno-politycznymi i ekonomicznymi. Problemy te związane są z trwającą od drugiej połowy lat 90. XX w. transformacją systemową, niedostateczną demokratyzacją, zacofaniem ekonomicznym, a także nadal nierozwiązanymi kwestiami dotyczącymi minionych konfliktów zbrojnych.
Evaluation des Effets des Accords Euro-Mediterraneens sur les Echanges Commerciaux Marocains: Enseignements d’un Modele de Gravite
Authors: Mikdam Zineb
Published: November 2021

Cet article s’intéresse à l’étude de l’impact du processus d’intégration du Maroc dans l’espace euro-méditerranéen en particulier en termes d’échanges commerciaux, en examinant les effets de la politique libreéchangiste adoptée par le Maroc dans l’espace euro-méditerranéen et son intérêt dans la promotion du potentiel commercial du pays. A travers une modélisation économétrique basée sur l’approche gravitationnelle qui semble être d’une grande utilité, l’étude a permis de distinguer entre les effets des accords de libre-échange conclus par le Maroc avec les pays arabes méditerranéens et la Turquie d’une part, et avec l’UE d’autre part. De même, ce modèle a permis d’apprécier l’intérêt de la variable gravitationnelle à savoir, la distance et ses effets explicatifs du commerce marocain intrarégional. Il est à noter d’après cette étude économétrique que les accords de libre-échange ont certainement contribué à la croissance des échanges du Maroc avec ses partenaires méditerranéens, alors que d’autres facteurs, à savoir la distance, le taux de change et l’existence d’une langue commune influencent positivement mais d’une manière négligeable les échanges commerciaux du Maroc dans l’espace euro-méditerranéen. Ainsi, et afin de consolider les effets positifs de ces accords de libre-échange, le pays doit adopter stratégies internes de promotion des secteurs économiques à fort potentiel d’exportation dans la perspective de stimuler ses exportations vers ses partenaires euro-méditerranéens.

El estudio analiza la percepción de los atributos de las competencias digitales docentes en el período de emergencia sanitaria por la covid-19 durante el año 2020, teniendo en cuenta el efecto inicial, las estrategias como respuesta luego del primer momento y las tareas a tomar en cuenta para culminar este año escolar 2021 e iniciar el 2022. El estudio incluyó la participación de 86 docentes de la institución educativa Instituto Superior Tecnológico Juan Bautista Aguirre; Los instrumentos que se aplicaron fueron una encuesta, entre los resultados obtenido los más relevantes destacan la presencia de experiencias muy innovadoras, sin embargo, que luego siguieron a la frustración y la preocupación inicial en el nuevo escenario habilitado por el uso de la tecnología. También, el desarrollo de las Competencias Digitales Docentes las cuales varían según el tipo de zona geográfica, el involucramiento de la familia y el acceso a la tecnología y nivel de comunicación institucional que favorezca a el trabajo de la educación superior. No obstante, en este estudio se reconoce la labor docente para hacerle frente a los factores condicionantes, en lo económicos, emocionales y sociales. En que concierne a la tecnología, se evidencian heterogeneidades en la brecha de acceso y en el uso efectivo de la misma; por tanto, es reconocible la necesidad de trabajar mucho más en la retroalimentación efectiva partiendo desde un mejor control del accionar del estudiante, demandando un plan integral de formación docente en competencias digitales que contemple las diversas esferas que condicionan el proceso.
Violences liées aux accusations de sorcellerie et vulnérabilité de la femme âgée en contexte burkinabé
Authors: Léopold Badolo Bawala
Published: November 2021

Cette recherche s’inscrit dans le cadre des études sur les violences psychologiques et sociales au Burkina Faso. L’objectif vise à appréhender le lien entre les violences et la vulnérabilité psychologique chez la femme âgée. Soixante-deux femmes exclues de leur communauté suite à des accusations de sorcellerie ont été interrogées par questionnaire et par entretien. Les résultats mettent en évidence la multiplicité des violences vécues, associées à une vulnérabilité psychologique. Ces violences, plus fréquemment, prennent la forme d’une non approbation d’un acte positif en faveur des victimes, d’un refus de dénoncer un acte susceptible de nuire aux victimes ou de leur assurer une quelconque protection, d’insultes ou d’autres moqueries. Ces violences sont des facteurs de vulnérabilité psychologique se traduisant, notamment, par un sentiment d’abandon et un regard peu valorisant porté sur soi.
The Use of Explicit Instruction in Writing Amongst Students of Colleges of Education in the Ashanti Region of Ghana
Authors: Bediako Yaa Asantewaa
Published: November 2021

The study sought to examine the use of Explicit Instruction in writing lessons at some selected Colleges of Education in the Ashanti Region of Ghana. The collective case study design informed by constructivist grounded theory data analysis methods was used. Data were collected and analyzed using three instruments namely a semi-structured interview, sample texts on argumentative and expository essays and observations. The study revealed that combining the cognitive strategy of text structure knowledge application with the metacognitive strategy of self-monitoring supports the development of academic writing in students in the Colleges of Education. Also, students make mistakes in their writing and these mistakes include verb errors, article errors and wrong words. It was also revealed that with regards to Explicit Instruction in the classroom, tutors comprehensively used instructions in the language class to enhance students writing skills. This study further showed that tutors have a variety of evidence-based instructional practices that improve many different skills and student’s writing knowledge. The researcher recommended that students in Colleges of Education in Ghana are made to read extensively outside the curriculum to broaden their vocabulary repertoire so that the over-reliance on tutors for corrections can be minimized.
The Dead Brother’s Ballad as a Balkan Shared Place of Memory
Authors: Kulavkova Katica
Published: November 2021

There is a ballad saved in the folklore and oral literary tradition of several Balkan peoples and their collective memory under different names, but with the same proto narrative: “The Dead Brother’s Song” (Greek), “The Return of the Dead Brother” (Macedonian), “Brother and Sister” (Serbian, Montenegrin, Bosnian), “Lazar and Petkana” (Bulgarian), “Constantin and Doruntinë” (Albanian), and “Voika” (Romanian). Appearing in several linguistic and stylistic variants, this ballad can be considered as an illustrative shared place of collective Balkan memory. Saved both as a local (national), and regional (transnational) cultural heritage, Тhe Dead Brother’s Ballad contains the most significant aspects of the Balkan cultural paradigm: mythical, mystical, folkloric, religious, ethical, and historical ones. The interpretation of this ballad in the mythopoetic context demystifies the Balkan identity prejudices and the misinterpretation of the shared cultural heritage. Methodologically, the present interpretation of the Balkan ballad is syncretic, combining diverse theoretical and interpretative tools from mythology, theory of literature, culturology and post-postcolonial criticism. Instead of giving an ultimate conclusion, this paper deconstructs the dominant interpretative strategies of the Balkan spiritual and historical heritage in the last two centuries (adoptive, contestable, convertible, competitive) showing that they all actualise the conservative principles of cultural hegemony on the Balkans. Having a scientific consensus for the transnational aspects of the Balkan cultural heritage might be a starting point for a new, empathetic strategy of their perception.

Published: November 2021

The conservation of protected areas is nowadays one of the concerns of international and national institutions. This study aims to contribute to better conservation of the ichthyological fauna of the lagoon area of the Azagny National Park (PNA). This national park has been dealing with the harmful effects of human activities for years. Thus, from March 2019 to February 2020, sampling campaigns were carried out to characterize this space, for better conservation. The results obtained are based on the analysis of abiotic and biotic (fish) data collected at 6 stations. The physicochemical parameters were measured using a multiparameter and the fish population collected using 10 gillnet batteries of 10, 25, 30, 35, 40 and 50 mm mesh void. The analysis of the ichthyological population of the lagoon area reveals a diversity of 53 species belonging to 30 families and 12 orders. 11 species were newly collected while 31 species previously recorded in these hydrosystems were not captured in the present study. The Shannon (H’> 2) and Equitability (E> 0.5) indices calculated reflect a good organization and stability of the ichthyological population of the hydrosystems of the PNA lagoon zone. The Monte-Carlo test indicates that the variables rate of nitrate, width, rate of dissolved oxygen, water temperature, alkalinity, salinity, rate of dissolved solid and phosphorus are those which discriminate specific richness, abundance and the distribution of the stand.

L’aviculture est une activité socio-économique très répandue et importante au Sénégal car c’est un secteur qui pourvoie des emplois. L’étude s’est déroulée auprès de 150 aviculteurs à travers une enquête formelle dans la commune de Bambey, région de Diourbel au Sénégal. Les enquêtes ont porté sur les caractéristiques socio-économiques des éleveurs, la conduite technique et économique des élevages mais aussi sur l’analyse des contraintes. Elle est constituée de 70,7% d’hommes et 29,3% de femmes dont 75% sont mariés ,19% sont célibataires et 6% sont veufs avec une moyenne d’âge de 38,6±13,5 ans. L’activité est exercée notamment par des fonctionnaires (22,7%), des étudiants (17 ,3%), des commerçants, des ménagères et des ouvriers à 14,7% pour chaque groupe. Ceux dont l’aviculture est leur activité principale ne représentent que 8%. La motivation des aviculteurs est plus qu’économique (53,3%) et passionnelle (25,3%). L’appropriation de la volaille revient à 88% des enquêtés, à 6,7% aux membres de la famille et à 4% aux enfants. Les élevages sont de type mono spécifique (52%) et plurispécifique (48%). Les espèces élevées sont les poulets (locaux et exotiques), les pigeons, les canards, les dindes, les oies, les pintades et les cailles. La quasi-totalité des éleveurs (73,3%) alimentent leurs volailles au moins une fois par jour alors que 26,7% laissent leurs animaux en divagation. La reproduction est mieux contrôlée chez les espèces de races exotiques. La vaccination est pratiquée par 64,6% des enquêtés. Les pathologies dominantes sont la maladie de Newcastle (47,6%), le parasitisme (18,4%), la variole (13,4%) et le coryza (10,3%), Les principales contraintes sont les maladies, la cherté des aliments, la chaleur, le manque de formation. Cependant, le développement de l’aviculture nécessite la mise en place d’un programme de conseil. La subvention et l’implication de tous les acteurs du système est nécessaire pour son développement.
Shoah, de Claude Lanzmann
Authors: Arcanjo Fábio Ávila
Published: November 2021

Este artigo objetiva mobilizar algumas categorias importantes para analisar o documentário Shoah, dirigido por Claude Lanzmann e lançado nos cinemas em 1985. A estruturação do filme se dá por meio das interações realizadas entre o documentarista e os atores sociais, que integram a relação tripartite – vítimas, perpetradores e testemunhas oculares – discutida pelo historiador americano Raul Hilberg. Embora o filme convoque entrevistados que participam das três categorias, nosso artigo privilegiará aqueles que pertencem à condição de vítimas. O que iremos observar é a relação existente entre a enunciação fílmica pautada pela rememoração do trauma, junto às categorias da melancolia e do luto. Discutiremos se os sobreviventes dos campos de extermínio, que participam do documentário, podem ser pensados como sujeitos melancólicos, acionando uma categoria subjetiva trabalhada por Giorgio Agamben (2008), a saber, o muçulmano. Além disso, problematizaremos o equacionamento existente entre o trabalho de luto e a perlaboração do passado, tomando como ponto de partida o acionamento do dever de transmissão dos retornantes.
A voz enlutada na tragédia grega
Authors: Nogueira Tiago Sanches
Published: November 2021

O artigo propõe reflexão sobre o modo como a tragédia grega inscreveu em seus textos a presença daquilo que chamamos de “voz enlutada”. Trata-se da materialização, em uma emissão vocal genérica, da dor de uma perda fundamental que rege a vida do sujeito. Para nós, tal perda está associada àquela que a psicanálise descreve como primeira vivência de satisfação experimentada no laço com o Outro. Para sempre perdida, tal vivência é expressada na tragédia sob a forma da interjeição aîaî. Apresentando-se como um desdobramento do advérbio aeí (sempre) derivado de aion (força vital), o grito aîaî parece expressar a dor de um "para sempre" perdido que aos poucos se constitui como o próprio ato de perder. A tentativa de reencontro do objeto, a partir desta perda fundamental, será para sempre representado por Outra coisa.
A dimensão do horror no luto em "O que ficou para trás”
Authors: Gambassi Giulia Mendes
Published: November 2021

O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar uma interpretação do filme O que ficou para trás (2020), do diretor Remi Weekes, partindo não apenas da narrativa, mas também do contexto cultural e de migração forçada dos personagens principais, Bol e Rial Majur. Nessa história dramática de perda e solicitação de refúgio, mobilizaremos a psicanálise transcultural (MORO, 2015, BINKOWSKI; BERRIEL, 2018) para nos voltarmos ao que entendemos como trabalho de luto a partir da língua-cultura dinka. Enquadrado no gênero horror, o filme nos apresenta não só a trajetória de Bol e Rial no novo país e o (não) acolhimento da Inglaterra, como também suas lutas internas com o que parece ter ficado para trás, como a tradução do título nos aponta, mas que os acompanha e se reapresenta durante toda a trama. Trabalhamos a dimensão do horror no luto via o Unheimlich freudiano e a dessubjetivação daqueles que, como Bol e Rial, arriscam-se a sobreviverem inscritos em novas dimensões de alteridade e de laço social.
Os sentidos do luto na pandemia de Covid-19 no Brasil
Authors: Mota Ilka de Oliveira , Lie Ginach Erich
Published: November 2021

Tomando um corpus heterogêneo construído com recortes de falas e gestos do Presidente da República, charges e discursos dos e sobre os memoriais que homenageiam vítimas da pandemia, nosso objetivo é compreender como o luto vem sendo significado na e pela sociedade brasileira no contexto da pandemia da COVID-19. Ao mesmo tempo que mata centenas de milhares de brasileiros, a pandemia de COVID-19 impõe restrições aos velórios, que são parte fundamental da necessária significação do luto. No Brasil, a sociedade se posiciona de diferentes formas diante desse quadro. O Presidente Bolsonaro silencia a pandemia e o luto e banaliza a morte. Cartunistas denunciam essa política fascista e negacionista. Outros artistas criam memoriais em forma arquitetônica ou biográfica pelos quais os enlutados podem significar a perda dos entes queridos de modo novo e estético. Essas expressões artísticas constituem formas de resistência à política negacionista, à banalização da morte e à própria morte. O trabalho mobiliza categorias teóricas da Análise Materialista do Discurso e da Psicanálise.

Authors: Silva Ana Carolina de Moraes , Sei Maíra Bonafé
Published: November 2021

Um desafio para as instituições de ensino superior é a formação pautada nas políticas de saúde, tendo os projetos de extensão colaborado para suprir essas demandas. Neste trabalho, investigou-se a concepção acerca do processo de formação e a humanização em saúde, pela perspectiva de ex-colaboradores de um projeto de extensão multidisciplinar. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo-exploratório, com dados coletados por meio de entrevistas semidirigidas e analisados pela análise de conteúdo categorial. Foram delineadas categorias referentes à formação curricular, autogestão estudantil e aprendizados advindos desta prática. Foram discutidos os currículos e como uma aprendizagem pautada na autonomia, no protagonismo e no lúdico pode desenvolver habilidades singulares e essenciais para o profissional. Percebe-se, ademais, uma mudança nos paradigmas de ensino e atuação em saúde, apontando para a relevância de espaços onde os estudantes possam vivenciar processos que contemplem o âmbito político, social e subjetivo do cuidado.

Published: November 2021

Lopinavir and ritonavir are anti-viral compounds that have similar chemical structures and overlapping UV spectral profiles. The combination of these two compounds is being promoted as an anti-COVID19 drug. Determination of these two compounds simultaneously using UV spectrophotometry method requires special technique so that the result will be valid. The purpose of this study was to obtain a suitable analytical technique using UV spectrophotometry for the determination of lopinavir-ritonavir simultaneously that fulfill the method validation requirement. In this study, the simultaneous equation technique, absorptivity comparison factor, and first derivative technique were used to overcome the effect of lopinavir/ritonavir absorbance at selected wavelengths for determination of each compound simultaneously. The one-way ANOVA statistical test was used to compare the result of the three analytical techniques. The results showed that the three techniques fullfilled the AOAC requirements for selectivity and linearity. The accuracy and precision test result have not met the requirements of the AOAC method validation. Statistically. the one-way ANOVA analysis showed there was a significant difference between the mean recovery of lopinavir using the absorptivity factor and first derivative technique. Whereas, there was no significant differences among the mean of ritonavir recoveries that were determined using those three techniques. As conclusion, that the UV spectrophotometric method using the simultaneous equation technique, the absorptivity factor technique, and the derivative technique for assaying the lopinavir and ritonavir simultaneously met the requirements for selectivity and linearity parameters. However, the accuracy and precision have not met the requirements. The first derivative technique is suitable for further developed for ritonavir and lopinavir determination simultaneously

ABSTRACTRobust regression on M estimation and S estimation is the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression on the data outlier. East Java is one of the provinces in Indonesia with a high case fatalitiy rate (1.34%). The raising of  Dengue Haemoragic Fever (DHF) in East Java has been influenced by climate, population density, human behavior, and environmental sanitation. This study aimed to compare robust regression research by using M estimation and  S estimation on the factors that affect IR DHF. This was done to get the best model regression on the data outlier based on the biggest R2 adjusted and the smallest MSE. This study utitlized observational research with a non-reactive research design using secondary data. The independent variable consisted of population density, healthy behavior, healthy living environment house, and precipitation in East Java in 2017. The dependent variable was incident rate of DHF in 2017. The population included 38 regencies in East Java, while the sample was 35 regencies/cities selected using simple random sampling. The analysis used robust regression on M estimation and S estimation weighting by Tukey’s Bisquare. Robust regression on S estimation was found to be the best robust regression on data outlier with R2 adjusted (0.996) and MSE (0.229). Robust regression on S estimation  was = 54.826 + 0.011 (population density) – 0.136 (% healthy behavior) - 0,404 (% healthy house ) - 0,005 (precipitation).Some factors that affect IR DHF can be the main focus for the prevention and control of DHF for the government and society.  Keywords: robust regression, outlier, estimation, estimation, DHF
