Authors: Roveda Bernardo , Tavaniello Neto César , Zaffari Henrique Freire , Bós Ângelo José Gonçalves
Published: June 2022

INTRODUÇÃO: A queda no idoso é um evento preocupante, podendo causar incapacidade e morte. Deste modo, profissionais da saúde devem orientar os idosos sobre a prevenção de quedas. OBJETIVO: Comparar a abordagem da prevenção de quedas durante consultas entre idosos jovens e longevos. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal descritivo e analítico com dados da PNS de 2019, a qual abrange todo o território nacional em uma amostra representativa da população brasileira avaliada em domicílios particulares. Foram entrevistados 43554 idosos, sendo que 3238 (7,4%) foram atendidos na última consulta em uma UBS, tornando-se elegíveis para responder se, durante a última consulta, receberam ou não orientações sobre como prevenir as quedas. A faixa etária e a variável dependente teve sua associação testada pelo qui-quadrado, aceitando p significativo <0,05. RESULTADOS: Foram avaliados 2893 idosos jovens e 345 longevos. No total, 38,1% dos idosos responderam “com certeza sim”, sendo 46,4% dos longevos e 37,1% dos idosos jovens. A opção “provavelmente sim” foi escolhida por 25% dos entrevistados. A opção “com certeza não” esteve presente em 20,5% das respostas, sendo escolhida por 21,2% dos idosos jovens e 15,1% dos longevos. Os resultados obtiveram significância estatística (p<0,05). CONCLUSÃO: A prevenção de quedas durante a consulta não foi abordada em parte expressiva dos entrevistados, especialmente no grupo dos idosos jovens. Apesar disso, a maior parte dos idosos tiveram essa questão presente em suas consultas, o que pode contribuir para a redução do risco de acidentes graves e que ameaçam a perda da funcionalidade e da qualidade de vida.

Published: June 2022

Aim: To evaluate histomorphological alterations present within nucleus and epithelium in oral submucous fibrosis subjects Methods: This study recruited 50 clinically diagnosed cases of oral submucous fibrosis which were active chewers of areca nut and associated products. Oral mucosa tissue blocks were prepared and processed followed by staining with Hematoxylin & Eosin to observe morphological features. The findings were statistically analyzed through SPSS version 23 Results: Amongst the sample size of 50, 33(66%) of cases had pleomorphic nuclear structure out of which 21(91.3%) had prominent nucleoli. High statistical significance was appreciated relating to involvement of nuclear and nucleoli structure. In addition, epithelial demarcation was appreciated within epithelium present in disease. 37(74%) cases were histologically identified cases of fibrosed structure out of which 31(83.8%) of the subjects had hyperplasia in epithelial lining. Hyperplastic epithelium was significantly correlated with OSMF. However, strength of association was weak with a p value of 0.04 Conclusion: The results revealed pleomorphism in nuclei underlining a strong association of structural alteration with disease initiation and progression. Hyperplastic stratified squamous epithelium was found in abundance which could be attributed to adaptive response of epithelium to inflammatory alkaloids present in areca nut products. Such findings could serve as trigger factor for oral submucous fibrosis and should be considered significant for early diagnosis and treatment management.

Authors: Alabi OO  , Gbadamosi YE  , Akinpelumi T
Published: June 2022

The presence of niobium in nature is associated with pegmatite in the form of columbite which necessitates its recovery process from the crude. Kuru Columbite Ore was sourced from ten different pits properly mixed to obtain homogenization and 20 kg was sampled out using the random sampling method, it was ground using the Denver milling machine and prepared towards characterization followed by desliming process by repeated scrubbing technique. Chemical characterization of the crude sample was carried out using Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometer (ED-XRF). Mineralogical analysis was carried out using X-ray Diffractometer (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope equipped with Energy Dispersive Spectrometer (SEM-EDS). 100 g of the crude sample using the cone and quartering method was sampled out for the particle size analysis and 1000 g each of sieve fractions –710+500 µm, –500+355 µm, –355+250 µm, –250+180 µm, and –180+125 µm was used for the scrubbing process. ED-XRF analysis revealed that the crude sample contains 11.4% Nb2O5, 39% SiO2, 6.56% Fe2O3, 0.34% TiO2 and other compound in trace forms. Mineralogical analysis of the Kuru columbite revealed the present of niobium oxide, iron tantalum, with other associated minerals. SEM images revealed that the ore contains coarse grains of niobium pentoxide which are disperse within the matrix of the ore, this implies that it requires less energy to liberate niobium pentoxide within the matrix of its ore and are evenly dispersed. The EDS of these microstructures revealed the presence of O, Mg, Al, Si, and Fe. The particle size analysis revealed the liberation size to be -250+180 µm and the chemical analysis of the Kuru Columbite ore of the concentration test using scrubbing process revealed that the economic liberation (-250+180 µm) have the highest assay of 48.6% Nb2O5. Kuru Columbite Ore has successfully being upgraded from 11.4% to 48.6% via repeated scrubbing process.

A case of uterine rupture in second term delivery after septum resection
Authors: Huttler Alexandra , Kelly Maureen
Published: June 2022

Introduction: The decision to resect a uterine septum remains individualized. Hysteroscopic approach is the gold standard for uterine septum resection. Uterine rupture in subsequent pregnancy is a known but rare complication without identified methods of prevention.

Case Report: A 32-year-old woman underwent uncomplicated hysteroscopic uterine septum resection followed by uncomplicated term vaginal delivery, with uterine rupture and intrauterine fetal demise at 38 weeks gestational age in the subsequent pregnancy.

Conclusion: Term uterine rupture is possible when the only history of uterine surgery is hysteroscopic septum resection, even with an intervening delivery. Providers should have a low threshold to initiate diagnostic evaluation with fetal or maternal distress in pregnancy after any uterine surgery. Modifiable risk factors for uterine rupture after septum resection may include residual septa, short interval between surgery and pregnancy, and labor induction methodology. Providers should consider these factors when counseling regarding the risks and benefits of resection.

The signs of a drastic decline in Covid-19 cases will have an impact on various related businesses where healthcare workers are involved. With the end of the Covid-19 pandemic, it will automatically result in the abolition of the PCR or Antigen Test which will have an impact on the reducing of their remuneration. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of canceling the Covid-19 test on several types of remuneration for health workers. This study used PRISMA analysis supported by the PICOT model. The research was conducted through document search, keyword identification and article review from Google Scholar (n=41), SagePub (n=16), Pubmed (n=6), Semantic Scholar (n=4), and others (n= 31). Other documents were discarded because they were irrelevant, duplication, and other reasons that were not on topic (n=29). The results of the PRISMA analysis showedfour problems faced by health workers as a result of the reduction in Covid-19 tests for health workers, namely: a decrease in job vacancies, a reduction in functional benefits and a decrease in personal business for health workers. We recommended to the empowerment of COVID-19 health workers and increasing business potential for health workers as an effort to restore the welfare of health workers.

Published: June 2022

O conhecimento da distribuição de tamanhos de um conjunto heterogêneo de partículas, chamado análise granulométrica, é uma importante ferramenta nos estudos de caracterização tecnológica de minérios, no controle de qualidade de um produto para comercialização, na seleção de equipamentos ou em processos de beneficiamento de minérios. Vários métodos foram desenvolvidos para essa finalidade, quase sempre, baseados na similaridade geométrica ou hidrodinâmica das partículas. Na análise granulométrica por peneiramento, método mais antigo e bastante utilizado na prática laboratorial, alguns fatores podem influenciar o resultado, como o tempo de peneiramento e a massa de material a ser analisada; pode ser a seco, a úmido ou combinado, vai depender da característica do material a ser ensaiado. No entanto, em laboratório, ainda é comum utilizar erroneamente massa e tempo padrões para diferentes materiais, sem levar em consideração suas particularidades (principalmente densidade). O objetivo principal deste trabalho é determinar a massa e o tempo adequados, nos ensaios de análise granulométrica por peneiramento, para os minérios de ferro e cobre da região de Carajás-PA. Utilizando a equação proposta por Gaudin, que determina a massa máxima que deve ficar retida em cada peneira, e ensaios sucessivos de peneiramento com tempos crescentes até que a massa passante em uma ou mais peneiras não varie mais do que 0,1%, espera-se encontrar a massa e o tempo adequados para cada minério estudado, contribuindo assim com as práticas laboratoriais do tratamento de minérios.

A utilização da experimentação no ensino de física desempenha um papel importante para se alcançar uma aprendizagem significativa, sendo uma ferramenta didática de ensino capaz de proporcionar a união entre teoria e prática. A experimentação faz com que os alunos não permaneçam somente no mundo da teoria, possibilitando estabelecer a relação entre ambos: teoria-prática. Assim, independente da escola dispor de um laboratório, o professor pode fazer uso de materiais de baixo custo e/ou de materiais recicláveis e de fácil acesso, sempre que houver possibilidade de desenvolver um contexto experimental referente aos conteúdos ministrados na disciplina. Nesta perspectiva, nesse artigo foram propostos experimentos didáticos com materiais de fácil acesso e de baixo custo, atribuindo ênfase aos conceitos estabelecidos da óptica geométrica, tendo como principal objetivo auxiliar professores e estudantes no processo de ensino-aprendizagem.

A flotação catiônica reversa é o método mais amplamente utilizado para a concentração de minério de ferro itabirítico de baixo teor. As eteraminas são utilizados como coletores de quartzo nesse processo e amido como depressor da hematita. Por isso, a escolha dos reagentes a serem dosados na planta é importante não apenas para determinar aquele que garante melhor eficiência na concentração, mas determinar um fornecedor que gere menos custos. Este estudo teve como objetivo estudar fornecedores de reagentes amido e amina e determinar quais desses reagentes teve melhor desempenho na flotação de minério itabirítico compacto. A metodologia consiste em utilizar amostras de minério de ferro com teor de 32% Fe, deslamadas e moídas. Cada teste foi realizado com um tipo de amido e um tipo de amina e os resultados foram avaliados através do índice de seletividade (IS) e recuperação metalúrgica. Os resultados indicaram que o amido convencional já utilizado no plano foi melhor e a mistura de mono e diamina e etermonoamina são melhores que as aminas eterdiamina. No caso de diferentes amidos (milho e mandioca), o amido de milho era melhor que o de mandioca. Também foi possível identificar em que dosagens alguns reagentes obtiveram melhores resultados.
Soft Power y RSE. El caso de Japón: ¿Dos caras de la misma moneda?
Authors: Ross César , Paillacar Carlos
Published: June 2022

Uno de los desafíos más importantes de las relaciones internacionales es recuperarse de una derrota bélica y transformar a los antiguos enemigos en aliados sinceros. La evidencia histórica demuestra que los países derrotados suelen buscar el restablecimiento de su posición anterior a toda costa. El caso de Japón ha sido paradigmático: optó por rediseñar su modelo de Estado, buscando resignificar su rol e imagen internacional, sustituyendo la imagen amenazante de la potencia imperial por la del país amable del milagro económico, cuya eficiencia acercó el consumo de bienes a la mayoría. Este importante cambio explica una parte relevante del éxito diplomático y económico del Japón de la post Segunda Guerra Mundial, sobre todo por la armonización del soft power (SP) en la política exterior del Estado, con la responsabilidad social empresarial (RSE) de sus empresas en el extranjero. Aquí reside el núcleo de la tensión entre el atractivo del SP como idea y su aplicabilidad a la política exterior de un país. En este trabajo postulamos que para el caso japonés esta tensión ha sido abordada con éxito en cuanto ha hecho del SP el enfoque central de su política exterior y ha logrado armonizar esta política con la de RSE.
El control como primera línea de mejoramiento en materia de contratos o compras públicas
Authors: Ochsenius Robinson Iván
Published: June 2022

Al día de hoy, es difícil entender la creación de una estructura organizacional de compras públicas que no considere un subsistema de información que advierta lo que está sucediendo, tanto adentro como afuera de ella. Sin embargo, esto ocurre, y es al presente una importante debilidad en gran parte de los países del mundo. El siguiente artículo, busca reflexionar sobre la importancia de situar a la función de control y su necesidad de implementación efectivamente en los sistemas de aprovisionamiento público, advirtiendo sus efectos negativos de no hacerlo, así como la ayuda que este puede brindar en disminuir los casos de corrupción en esta materia.
El planeta Cuba y su imposible desarrollo sostenible
Authors: Del Alcàzar Joan , Betancourt Indira
Published: June 2022

Cuba, más que una isla es un planeta distinto y distante de los demás, cosa que incomprensiblemente se llega a aplaudir desde algunas instancias políticas y académicas. Sorprendentemente, los panegiristas del régimen castrista, que desde la desaparición de la URSS no atiende adecuadamente las necesidades básicas de sus ciudadanos, aplauden cuando éste se niega a introducir cambios de calado en su concepción del país, y se opone –por ejemplo- a conceder autonomía a las entidades locales que, propiciando un desarrollo sostenible, podrían paliar de manera efectiva las graves carencias de todo tipo que sufren los cubanos. Desde el PCC se habla de manera retórica de potenciar el desarrollo local, mientras en la práctica se obstinan en impedir cualquier tipo de descentralización. El régimen, como hace desde 1959, confunde información con propaganda, e impide cualquier iniciativa propia de los actores económicos y sociales que no cuente con la bendición del propio PCC. Eso sí, en sus resoluciones, éste se declara firme partidario del desarrollo local, aunque en sus mismos documentos encontramos las contradicciones que, en lo concreto, impedirán avanzar por esa senda. Veremos si la generación de los nietos de la revolución sigue aceptando esa lógica del sistema mucho tiempo.
Tendencias del comportamiento electoral en el Chile postautoritario. Una discusión bibliográfica
Authors: Pimentel Bravo Felipe
Published: June 2022

El presente artículo realiza una discusión crítica de las principales investigaciones que han estudiado, directa o tangencialmente, las tendencias del comportamiento político en el Chile contemporáneo, con particular énfasis en aquellos que analizan las dinámicas del comportamiento electoral nacional y los vínculos subjetivos de la ciudadanía con la institucionalidad política durante las últimas tres décadas. De esta manera, se discutirá el impacto que han tenido sobre el comportamiento político y electoral fenómenos sociales complejos, como la formación de generaciones políticas, la distribución sociodemográfica de las actitudes hacia lo político y la identificación partidaria, la conformación de nuevas subjetividades políticas promovidas por los cambios en la estructura social del país, el ascenso de la desafección, apatía y crisis de representación política, en conjunto con perspectivas economicistas que indagan los efectos de los costos de información y el gasto electoral en las y los votantes del país.

Conflicto Y Pacificación En Las Relaciones Entre Comunidades Judías, Árabes Y Musulmanas En Chile Y Argentina
Authors: Caro Isaac
Published: June 2022

En este artículo, consideraremos algunas percepciones de dirigentes comunitarios judíos, árabes y musulmanes, tanto de Argentina como de Chile, acerca de los siguientes tópicos: a) cómo visualizan las relaciones entre estas comunidades, b) si creen que han existido cambios a partir de 1990 y en este sentido de qué manera han influido los acontecimientos del Medio Oriente y, en especial, el conflicto árabe-israelí, a partir de algunos hitos importantes, como los Acuerdos de Oslo, la Segunda Intifada, la Invasión de Irak por parte de Estados Unidos, el gobierno de Sharon; c) qué importancia le asignan a intentar mejorar estas relaciones en el marco del cono sur americano. Colocaremos el énfasis en un paradigma de diálogo cultural y civilizacional, en lugar del modelo de choque civilizacional propuesto por algunos académicos estadounidenses.
Debilidad institucional, fragmentación política, y duración de los gabinetes ministeriales en el Perú.
Authors: Vera Rojas Sofía
Published: June 2022

La caída del gabinete Del Castillo fue sin duda el evento político más importante de la primera mitad del gobierno de Alan García pues se abrieron una serie de interrogantes sobre los posibles nuevos rumbos que tomaría el gobierno. ¿Pero qué tanto puede cambiar la política con el nuevo gabinete? Las condiciones de la inestabilidad y corrupción permanecen allí, los partidos políticos siguen siendo débiles y poco programáticos, el acercamiento de las nuevas elecciones y otros aspectos de la coyuntura siguen distrayendo el debate sobre la agenda política, y la fragmentación del sistema de partidos sigue afectando la calidad y consistencia de las políticas públicas, incluyendo los planes anticorrupción. Agregándole a todo esto la nueva coyuntura de la crisis financiera internacional, la gestión del nuevo Presidente del Consejo de Ministros enfrenta entonces serias limitaciones que dificultarán la satisfacción de las expectativas generadas a raíz de su nombramiento, pero ¿podemos realmente pedirle algo a un Presidente de Consejo de Ministros en el Perú? Echar un vistazo a las condiciones políticas e institucionales que determinarán el margen de maniobra del Presidente del Consejo de Ministros evaluando los factores de duración de todos los gabinetes ministeriales peruanos en dos décadas es un buen punto de partida para el análisis de lo sucedido con la renuncia de Del Castillo y de lo avanzado en los tres primeros meses de Yehude Simon en la Presidencia del Consejo de Ministros.
Patriotismo constitucional y procesos de integración
Authors: Contreras Pablo
Published: June 2022

El rol y centralidad del Estado Nación están en cuestión, a lo cual colaboran los procesos de integración regional. En este marco se postula la necesidad de revisar la identidad política nacional y pensar en esquemas postnacionales, buscando los ejes de aglutinación social en bases y principios que escapen a los caracteres típicos del concepto de nación. Clave en este proceso es el empleo del concepto de patriotismo constitucional. A partir del cual el autor plantea tres interrogantes: comprensión del concepto de patriotismo constitucional, su operatividad, y los aportes y desafíos que éste plantea al proceso de integración regional latinoamericano.
¿Socialdemocracia o izquierda moderada? Un análisis de los casos de Chile y Uruguay en el comienzo del siglo XXI
Authors: Carrizo Gabriel
Published: June 2022

En el inicio del siglo XXI, la mayoría de los países de América del Sur han dado un “giro a la izquierda”, intentando poner en cuestionamiento las bases del neoliberalismo implantadas en la década del ’90 del siglo precedente. Asimismo, ha surgido en el ámbito académico y en algunos medios de comunicación una taxonomía que busca hacer distinción entre los actuales gobiernos de Bolivia, Venezuela, Ecuador y Argentina -por un lado-, y Brasil, Chile y Uruguay -del otro-. Los primeros serían -según este esquema- gobiernos populistas, y los segundos ejemplos de gobiernos socialdemócratas. En este artículo expondremos el debate en torno a la viabilidad de gobiernos socialdemócratas en América Latina. Luego, revisaremos la historia política reciente de Chile y Uruguay. La hipótesis que guía este trabajo es que, al menos en Chile y Uruguay, no estaríamos frente a ejemplos de socialdemocracia, sino más bien de izquierdas moderadas que evitan cuestionar los principios neoliberales.
De la hacienda al poblado rural: un caso de modernización cultural y política en la comuna de san clemente
Authors: Silva Valenzuela Nicolás
Published: June 2022

El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo describir el proceso de modernización que se ha desarrollado en la localidad de Flor del Llano desde los tiempos de la hacienda hasta la actualidad. Dicho proceso ha tenido como resultado la desintegración de las estructuras sociales rurales tradicionales. El ingreso forzoso de los espacios y poblaciones remanentes a la sociedad del “Chile moderno” (a la economía de libre mercado y a la jurisdicción estatal), conlleva a su vez la desaparición de las antiguas cosmogonías rurales tradicionales. Para describir estos resultados entendidos como consecuencias del proceso modernizador, se presentarán dos apartados. El primero, describirá parte de la modernización cultural de la localidad, en donde se manifiestan síntomas de la desaparición de la tradicional cosmogonía campesino-inquilina; mientras que la segunda parte tendrá como objetivo dar cuenta de una de las interpretaciones centrales del estudio: realizar una lectura de la modernización política de la localidad Flor del Llano en tanto proceso de reincorporación jurídico-administrativa al Estado chileno.
