Certamente, vivemos um ano de uma forma completamente diferente de qualquer coisa que, possivelmente, tenhamos planejado. Ainda assim, necessitamos encarar desafios que se apresentaram novos quase que diariamente e buscar trazer à normalidade as rotinas profissionais que sempre desempenhamos. Não foi diferente com a nossa revista de extensão, que precisou diversificar estratégias para continuar as imperativas atividades, tanto de avaliação de artigos e de relatos, como de editoração. Repleta de trabalhos inéditos, a décima terceira edição de nosso periódico de comunicação científica reflete a diversidade de um país que vem ampliando esforços no fortalecimento das práticas curriculares extensionistas e proporcionando novos espaços para o desenvolvimento das atividades de extensão dentro das universidades e dos institutos federais.
Uso correto de equipamentos de proteção individual (EPI) e destinação correta de embalagens vazias de agrotóxicos no Planalto Norte Catarinense
Authors: Wurz Douglas André , Dos Santos Grazieli
Published: December 2023

Tendo em vista a essencialidade do uso de equipamentos de proteção individual para a saúde do produtor rural e a falta de informações acerca desse assunto, este trabalho tem como objetivo capacitar estudantes sobre a importância do uso de equipamentos de proteção individual, bem como seu correto uso, e capacitar os participantes sobre a correta destinação de embalagens vazias de agrotóxicos no Planalto Norte Catarinense. O presente trabalho foi desenvolvido nos municípios de Canoinhas, Três Barras e Bela Vista do Toldo, localizadas no Planalto Norte Catarinense. Verificou-se que apesar da maioria dos participantes conhecerem a importância da utilização de equipamentos de proteção individual, e os riscos do manuseio e aplicação de agrotóxicos sem EPI, é comum que presenciem a não utilização do EPI ou a utilização incompleta do EPI, causando um grande risco ao aplicador.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.35700/ca.2020.ano7n12.p35-41.2570

Authors: Ichimura Masaya , Baixian Cheng , Li Tong
Published: December 2023

Aluminum oxide-hydroxide thin films are fabricated by a simple chemical process, dip-dry deposition. The substrate is dipped in the solution and then dried on a heater plate. The dip-dry cycles are repeated to obtain necessary thickness. The deposition solution contains Al2(SO4)3 and NH4OH. To control resistivity of the films, Mg is doped by immersing the samples in a Mg(NO3)2 solution. The resistivity is reduced by the doping, and is about 104 Ωcm in the thickness direction. Thus the deposited films would be useful for interface layers in heterostructures and coating of electrodes in electrochemical systems.

Introduction: In chronic diseases, QoL depends on several factors such as the type and duration of the disease, its treatment and side effects, the severity of symptoms, medication effects, patient age, limitations and self-care capacity. In chronic kidney disease it has also become a measure of health outcome.Objective: assess the association between QoL and socioeconomic, lifestyle and clinical factors of patients on HD.Methods: This is a cross-sectional epidemiological census, carried out among 1,024 patients on hemodialysis from all hemodialysis units at the metropolitan region in the Espirito Santo’s, Brazil . Sociodemographic, lifestyle and clinical characteristics data were used. QoL was assessed using the Short-Form health Survey-36 (SF-36). Data were analysed by multiple linear regression.Results: The best QoL was represented by mental health (72.16) and the worst QoL by the physical aspect (26.78). After multiple linear regression, predictors of QoL were identified, with emphasis on males, a predictor of better QoL for 5 of the 8 domains and the summaries of the physical and mental components. Education, associated with 5 domains, gives greater reference to income. Physical activity was a predictor of 7 of the 8 QoL domains and the summary of the physical component. Among the clinical variables, the number of complications is associated with 7 of the 8 domains and summaries of the physical and mental components.Conclusion: Male sex is highlighted as a predictor of better physical and mental health and elderly people with better mental health, despite the impairment in physical health. The absence of physical activity is associated with worse physical and mental health. Clinically, having 3 or more intradialytic complications was associated with worse physical and mental QoL.
Sustainable Development Goal 10: Reducing Inequality – Evidence from India and its States
Authors: Das Nilmadhab , Mondal Debasish
Published: December 2023

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) embraced seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015, recognising the global imperative to address societal challenges. Among these goals, SDG 10 focuses on reducing inequalities within and among countries. Instead of examining inequalities within and among countries, our study assesses within-group inequality (within rural and urban) and between-group inequality (between rural and urban) of all India and its fifteen major states from 1983 to 2011–12. Our findings indicate that within-group inequality contributes most to overall or combined inequality. To effectively achieve the sustainable development goal in India, it is crucial to prioritise efforts towards reducing within-group inequality (within rural and urban). Additionally, it is essential to monitor the between-group inequality (between rural and urban) so that it does not increase excessively. Also, we have suggested some policies to achieve SDG 10 while fostering a more inclusive society.

Published: December 2023

Background: Invasive mycormucosis is a rare opportunistic fungal disease with high morbidity and mortality rates, predominantly affecting immunosuppressed patients. An increasing incidence has recently been described particularly among corona virus epidemic. Dentists should be aware of this possible diagnosis instead of just instituting some useless and devastating treatments, and to ovoid the delay that can cost the patient ‘life juste like our case. Clinical presentation: An unusual clinical manifestation of mucormycosis in a 42–year-old _man, diabetic who was referred by his Otorhinolaryngologist, to our dental surgery unit of the university hospital FARHAT HACHED Tunisia, suspecting a facial cellulitis related to dental infection. Before consulting his Otorhinolaryngologist, the patient was suffering from severe dental pain for two months, without any signs of relief despite dental treatments and the pain killers prescribed by his dentist. He was successfully treated by a combination of surgical intervention and antifungal treatment: Amphotericin B.

The article addresses mandibular fractures, which are common today, often resulting from traffic accidents, violence and falls. Surgical management is crucial to avoid future complications. The work describes a specific case in which Nylon tape (clip) was used to reduce a mandibular fracture in a male patient who was a victim of physical aggression. The patient, a homeless individual involved with narcotic substances, was treated by neurosurgery and trauma surgery teams. The fracture was initially reduced with nylon tape during primary care. The patient was subsequently transferred to the oral and maxillofacial surgery (BMF) team for definitive treatment. The treatment involved several steps, including nasotracheal intubation, antisepsis, local anesthesia, submandibular surgical access, removal of nylon tape, tooth extraction, cleaning of the fracture, manual reduction, plate fixation and occlusion review. The patient received conventional clinical support and was released on the second postoperative day for outpatient follow-up. The choice of fixation with replaced load of the 2.4 mm system (load bearing) stands out due to the need for high rigidity in contaminated fractures. The extraction of teeth 43 and 44 was carried out to avoid risks of contamination. The article concludes by highlighting the effectiveness and accessibility of using nylon tape for the temporary stabilization of mandibular fractures, providing local pain relief and reducing the distress associated with bone movement.

One approach to achieving this goal is to harness the potential of remote sensing in the classroom. Remote sensing is a multidisciplinary field linking geography, biology, physics, mathematics, and computer science. As a combination of the study of natural sciences and new technologies, and despite being a rapidly growing field driving high demand for skilled workers, this young discipline has yet to establish an adequate position in schools. Remote sensing methods and materials, can demonstrate, in practically real-time, environmental problems such as deforestation, fires, desertification, water pollution, rising water temperatures, glacial melting, drought, and many other phenomena. This overview study presents new perspectives alongside a list of arguments to support the importance of using remote sensing methods and materials in schools.
Geography curriculum fidelity in map-skills development: Examining teachers’ personal concepts, lesson objectives, and observed lessons

Quality education requires teachers to approach the curriculum systematically. Systematicity in education can be viewed from different perspectives. One of these is fidelity across the different levels of the curriculum: planned, implemented, and acquired. The basic premise is that what has been planned should be implemented and mastered. Therefore, transitions between different levels of the curriculum should not trigger unintentional changes in objectives, contents, and so forth. Thus, this study aims to examine curriculum fidelity and systematicity, specifically, the links between the planned and the implemented curriculum, in one specific segment of geography education: map skills. To this end, a combination of observations and recordings of model lessons and interviews was used to research 20 lower secondary school teachers and their lessons. The results suggest little systematicity in the development of map skills, that is, only weak fidelity between the planned and implemented curriculum. Particularly, a fundamental problem was observed in setting the learning objectives of a concrete lesson.
Spatial changes in two major modes of atmospheric circulation variability during the 20th century

Published: December 2023

This study presents the time development of two major modes of atmospheric circulation variability in the Northern Hemisphere, the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and the Pacific/North American Pattern (PNA), during the 20th century. We employ 500 hPa winter monthly means of the long-term reanalysis 20CR, which cover the 1871−2011 period. We use a moving Principal Component Analysis calculated for 40-year periods with a one-year step. The spatial structure of NAO is well developed and stable during the whole 20th century using the ensemble mean. However, substantial changes in PNA pattern occur during the late 19th century. Its centres are weaker and smaller, except the centre over the northern Pacific Ocean, which is stronger and larger in the early period. However, these changes are not visible when using ensemble members. Therefore, we suggest that these shifts do not reflect real changes in the atmosphere but are produced by the reanalysis and statistical method itself.
Becoming a park: The assemblage of Olomouc parks in the 19th and first half of the 20th century
Authors: Daniel Jan , Jirmus René
Published: December 2023

We conceptualize an urban park as an assemblage, and we use the urban parks in Olomouc as examples. We do not understand a park as a complete product, but we approach it as a never-finished process, which results from the mutual relationships between material and discursive practices. Using local newspapers, we have studied the process of becoming a park. During this process, concrete space acquires characteristics that are related to a park in a given place and given time. Inquiring into this process, we focused on three closely connected problems: 1) How was the material and discursive limitation of parks distinguished from the wider urban structure? 2) What role did the material design of parks play in the analysed process? 3) What were the means of regulating park visitors and what were its objectives? The use of the concept of assemblage in the research into the history of urban parks results in a more differentiated view of urban greenspace, and thus it can contribute to a better understanding of the current state of the urban greenspace.

Soil base saturation is a physicochemical property used for classifying terrestrial ecosystems. In this study, we focused on a comparison of soil base saturation and spatially related soil physical and chemical properties between individual and typological forest divisions. The dependence of soil base saturation on physical and other chemical properties was obtained through geographically weighted regression. Both soil properties and regression characteristics were divided along soil regions and associations. The similarities of soil properties between individual and typological soil division systems were assessed through quantiles from spatial models by two-tailed t-tests and simple linear regressions. Independent variables characterized 26−91% of soil base saturation variance, with mean geographically weighted determination coefficients (R2) between soil regions varying from 0.40 to 0.86, and between soil associations from 0.55 to 0.83. Low significant (p < 0.5) differences in distributions of soil base saturation predominated in both individual and typological systems. Only loam content, P2O5and pH showed unique regional effects on soil base saturation.
Lucille Mathurin Mair

Lucille Mathurin Mair (née Walrond) made a mammoth contribution to women in Jamaica and across the world. In this biography, Verene Shepherd traces Mair’s evolving ideology through her roles as professional historian, wife, mother, mentor, diplomat, national and international civil servant, legislator, and women’s rights activist. Mair’s tireless commitment to the principles of justice and equality for women guided her work and she particularly sought to centre women of the Global South in the development agenda. The accounts of Mair’s myriad and often uncredited contributions at the University of the West Indies, the United Nations, and as a senator in the Government of Jamaica are enhanced by previously unpublished extracts from her notes and personal papers and interviews with her friends and colleagues. Shepherd weaves these sources together to give us a thought-provoking study of the evolution of a rebel woman.
Identity and Access Control Techniques for Enhanced Data Communication in Cloud
Authors: Dixit Rashmi , Ravindranath K.
Published: December 2023

The preservation of sensitive data and prevention of unauthorized access are critical objectives in cloud computing environments, necessitating the implementation of robust security measures. The present study delves into the amalgamation of the Hierarchical Role Based Access Control Model (HR-ACM), Composikey, a composite key encryption algorithm, and Interactive Tree Based zero knowledge protocol (ITZKP) to construct a robust security framework for cloud security. This study presents an investigation into the viability and efficacy of integrating HRACM, Composikey, and ITZKP as a means of augmenting security measures and reducing potential hazards in cloudbased systems. The execution times comparison of the Composikey, IBPRE, and KPRE models were compared for different filesizes (1 KB to 2 GB) to evaluate the performance of the HRACM method. As roles increase, RBAC a execution time increases significantly. The HRACM Method takes 0.001 to 0.002 seconds to implement across all role counts. The results show that the HRACM Method is more efficient and time-effective than the RBAC Method. The response time measured in microseconds for the existing ZKP and Libra systems for different file sizes, ranging from 1KB to 1 GB. The results reveal that the verifier time for the ITZKP system aligns closely with the existing systems, demonstrating its ability to perform efficient verification processes. These findings collectively demonstrate the potential of the integrated security framework in enhancing cloud security.

The Evolution of CBDC in G20 Economies Design, Progress and Strategy
Authors: Pirgmann Michael
Published: December 2023

This paper aims to provide a comprehensive examination of the rapidly evolving landscape of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) within G20 economies. It seeks to differentiate the primary use cases of retail, wholesale, and cross-country CBDCs across the four development stages: research-, development-, pilot- and live-stage. The research reveals that, except for Argentina, all G20 economies are in advanced research or proof-of-concept stages, each with unique motivations and design considerations. Also, eastern nations, notably China, India, and Russia are progressing toward the imminent launch of retail CBDCs. In contrast, predominant western economies like the USA, UK and Eurozone remain in exploratory phases, preparing for a potential future launch should CBDC integration become necessary. Also, it can be concluded that CBDC is seen as an addition to cash and not as a replacement in all portrayed economies. Furthermore, most countries are undecided regarding the underlying technology, but are certain to distribute CBDCs via intermediaries and not directly via the Central Bank to avoid disintermediation. Noticeably, most G20 economies are involved in one of twelve international projects for cross-country CBDCs which are currently underway.
Why House Prices Increased in the COVID-19 Recession: Evidence from Germany
Authors: Schröder Frederik
Published: December 2023

After the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, real estate prices in Germany have risen significantly. This happened unexpectedly because several macroeconomic determinants pointed to a fall in property prices during this period. This provides an extraordinary opportunity to empirically investigate the particular connection between interest rates and real estate prices. The aim of the contribution is to verify the real interest rate hypothesis. This study performs a time series regression analysis to test the hypothesis. The time series ranges from 2017Q1 to 2021Q1. The results confirm that the long-term real interest rate might have a negative and significant impact on the growth rate of property prices after the factors of economic growth and unemployment have been controlled. The endogeneity is largely eliminated through an experimental design. The results have far-reaching practical implications for housing policy and for ways to solve the problem of housing affordability.
Response to Professor Dinner
Authors: Fineman Martha Albertson
Published: December 2023

I want to thank the Texas A&M Law Review for including my work in this special Issue and express my appreciation to Professor Dinner for her thoughtful comments concerning the evolution of my scholarship. Professor Dinner raises the question of whether that earlier work is relevant to the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization opinion, specifically, and to broader issues of reproductive justice, more generally. For me, Dobbs illustrates—once again—how our American obsession with both individual rights and Supreme Court jurisprudence can distort our sense of the possibilities for achieving social (or reproductive) justice. I see my work as an attempt to argue for a different perspective, one that might have the ability to alter or redirect that obsession. I also believe that the universal vulnerability approach has the potential to expand, and perhaps even refine, debates about reproductive justice.
