Authors: Antoun Joseph S. , Lawrence Caleb , Leow Arthur , Rongo Roberto , Dias George , Farella Mauro
Published: August 2023

Objective: Māori patients are often inappropriately treated using Caucasian norms, despite obvious differences in facial morphology. There is currently very little data concerning the nature and/or magnitude of these differences in facial features. The objective of the present study was therefore to evaluate the facial features of Māori and New Zealand (NZ) Europeans.

Methods: Two convenience samples of 30 Māori and 30 NZ Europeans, evenly matched for age and gender, were recruited from amongst students of the University of Otago, New Zealand. Using a 3D white-light scanner, 12 facial scans were taken of each participant, which were then merged to form a single 3D image of the face. Prior to scanning, round markers were fixed to the skin in order to facilitate the localisation of facial anthropometric points and from which vertical, sagittal, and transverse measurements were assessed from the 3D facial image. Univariate and multivariate analyses of variance were used to test for differences between the two groups before and after adjusting for body mass index (BMI).

Results: Significant differences were found in vertical, sagittal, and transverse facial dimensions, before and after adjusting for BMI. The overall face of Māori was significantly larger than that of NZ Europeans, although the facial proportions were generally similar. However, Māori had a broader face, more anterior position of the chin and reduced facial convexity in comparison with NZ Europeans (p < 0.01).

Conclusion: Māori have markedly different sagittal facial features compared with NZ Europeans. These distinctive features may reflect important differences in environmental and genetic influences between the two populations. The findings from the present study may assist the clinician in the treatment planning and assessment of facial dysmorphology in these ethnic groups.

Published: August 2023

Background: Orthodontic maxillary expansion is a commonly-performed treatment approach to correct transverse maxillary deficiencies by separating the mid-palatal suture. To obtain a successful treatment result and prevent relapse, the expanded maxillary sutures require maintenance by means of qualified bone reorganisation.

Aim: To assess the effects of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) on sutural bone formation after the expansion of the inter-premaxillary suture in rats.

Methods: Sixteen male Wistar rats, 6 to 8-week old, were used. The expansion appliance comprised a helical spring fabricated from 0.014 inch stainless steel wire (Dentaurum, Ispringen, Germany). The rats were divided into two equal groups and randomly assigned to the LIPUS treatment group or a sham-operation group. LIPUS was delivered via a 2.5 cm diameter ultrasound transducer (Exogen, Smith and Nephews, Inc., Memphis, TN, USA) for 20 minutes per day during 7 days of post-expansion retention. Following retention, the rats’ maxillae were surgically removed and histologic and immunohistochemical specimens were prepared and examined.

Results: The number of osteoblasts and blood vessel dimensions in the ultrasound group increased but was not significant, compared with the control group. A statistically significant difference in osteocalcin, VEGF and TGF-β immunoreactivities (p < 0.01) was found in the area of the mineralising tissue. Only VEGF immunoreactivity was significant between two groups (p < 0.01) in the fibrous tissue area.

Conclusions: The area of mineralising tissue in the LIPUS-applied group expressed activity markers for osteocalcin, VEGF and TGF-β compared with a surrounding area of fibrous tissue. Cellular activation in the LIPUS group was greater than that of controls. Therefore, LIPUS may be accepted as a useful approach to enhance sutural bone formation.

Published: August 2023

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the physical and mechanical properties of various textile materials based on polyester and cotton for shoe uppers and lining. For that purpose, the influence of the ratio of a mixture of cotton and polyester fibers on the quality of the fabric was investigated. As a result, fabrics with the same composition but different yarn numbers differed from each other in specified properties. With an increase in the content of polyester, all specified properties increase except for vapor permeability, which makes it possible to correctly select the composition of fabrics for shoes.
Effect of Soil Temperature on Reproduction of Root-knot Nematodes in Flue-cured Tobacco with Homozygous Rk1 and/or Rk2 Resistance Genes
Authors: Pollok Jill R. , Johnson Charles S. , Eisenback J.D. , David Reed T. , Adamo Noah
Published: August 2023

Most commercial flue-cured tobacco cultivars contain the Rk1 resistance gene, which provides resistance to races 1 and 3 of Meloidogyne incognita and race 1 of M. arenaria. A number of cultivars now possess a second root-knot resistance gene, Rk2. High soil temperatures have been associated with a breakdown of root-knot resistance genes in a number of crops. Three greenhouse trials were performed from 2014 to 2015 investigate the effect of high soil temperature on the efficacy of Rk1 and/or Rk2 genes in reducing parasitism by a population of M. incognita race 3. Trials were arranged in randomized complete block design in open-top growth chambers set at 25°, 30°, and 35°C. Plants were inoculated with 3,000 eggs and data were collected 35 days post-inoculation. Galling, numbers of egg masses and eggs, and reproductive index were compared across cultivar entries. Nematode reproduction was reduced at 25°C and 30°C on entries possessing Rk1 and Rk1Rk2 compared to the susceptible entry and the entry possessing only Rk2. However, there were often no significant differences in reproduction at 35°C between entries with Rk1 and/or Rk2 compared to the susceptible control, indicating an increase of root-knot nematode parasitism on resistant entries at higher temperatures. Although seasonal differences in nematode reproduction were observed among experiments, relative differences among tobacco genotypes remained generally consistent.

Published: August 2023

In a connected and uncertain world, where almost two thirds of the world’s population are now online, the integration of digital tools in the social and economic context is becoming a priority and an imposed choice for any organization. As a result, the strategic position of the Information System (IS) in these organizations is necessarily linked to performance. The creation of added value or net benefits through the use of these platforms becomes an ultimate and strategic objective for any organization. This study evaluates the success of the information system (IS) for electronic payment of port fees. From a quantitative approach of a hypothetico-deductive nature and using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM), we found that the success of the IS implies a quality of the electronic payment system, as well as the information produced influences the use and satisfaction of the users and finally these last two findings impact the individual and organizational performance of the organizations.

Authors: Krawczyk Dariusz
Published: August 2023

The foundation of the social communication system of the Polish police is the press officers of district and city departments, who maintain regular contact with journalists of local and regional media, and incidentally also with national or international mass media. The aim of the 2022 survey was to determine the media relations activities, techniques and tools used by officers. All press officers in the police garrison in the Silesian Voivodeship participated in the research project. 100% of press officers took part in the survey. Responding to the expectations of journalists police officers prefer direct contact with journalists, including 52% by phone. Although press officers consider social media to be a good method of contacting the public (30%), they do not use it themselves in contacts with journalists. They prefer to use the official police website (28%). Police spokesmen, due to the information they have, gain the attention of the mass media and do not have to use modern communication techniques to attract journalists. Maintaining constant contact with journalists, press officers also assessed the level of their professionalism. According to the respondents, TV journalists are characterized by the highest professionalism (41%). In second place are press and radio journalists with a similar number of indications (27% and 24%). The professionalism of Internet editorial staff was rated the worst (8%).
Use of the Method FMEA for Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment in a Coal Mine
Authors: Duda Adam , Juzek Tymoteusz
Published: August 2023

One of the basic stages of mining operations is development work. During them there can occur the events that affect the process of development work as well as the safety of workers. This article conducts a process risk assessment using the Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) method to identify events that disrupt the development work process, along with the causes of the occurrence of these events. The study covered the process of development work i.e. the execution of the M-2 roadway in seam 502/1 realized at a depth of about 550 m with an assumed length of about 500 m. As a result of the study, those risks for which countermeasures should be applied were identified, and measures were proposed to minimize the risks involved. As part of the research, an FMEA evaluation form was created to assess process risks in the execution of similar work. The highest process risk was identified for the drivage of the excavation with a road header, and is related to the possibility of frequent failure of hydraulic systems. Similar process risk results were obtained for the risk associated with improper execution of mining with explosives and the need to perform additional blasting work in the excavated roadway. The results can contribute to reducing the time of coal face stoppage during development work, and thus improve the process of them and reduce the costs incurred during this process.
The Need and Advantages to Intensify Exploratory and Evaluative Works on the Areas of Undeveloped Zinc and Lead Ores’ Deposits of the Silesian and Cracovian Region
Authors: Grelewicz-Kowalczyk Martyna , Kaczmarczyk Justyna
Published: August 2023

Zinc and lead metal ores are minerals intended for strategically producing raw materials for the Polish economy, as indicated in the key Polish document: State Raw Materials Policy (PSP2050). It was specified among others that an important factor that will influence the development of Polish economy will be the access to key mineral raw materials from domestic resources. Currently Polish Zn-Pb ores mining no longer exists as the last operating mine Olkusz-Pomorzany that belonged to the Mining and Metallurgic Plant “Bolesław” Joint Stock Company due to the depletion of resources finished extraction in 2020. Despite this fact there still are areas of great potential in the scope of these minerals in Poland. It is the Zawiercie region, where there has been no extraction of these ores so far and is believed to have the best perspectives for future development. One should connect with this region the nearest future of functioning of the domestic Zn-Pb ores’ mining. It is in this region that the “Zawiercie 3” ore is situated. The ore was documented in 2014 by a private investor within the framework of the permit to search for and identify Zn-Pb ore deposits and it is currently the largest as to resources Zn-Pb ores’ deposit in Poland. Its resources are currently over 35 million tonnes, which constitutes app. 39% of all the documented balance sheet resources of Zn-Pb ores in Poland. The presented geological works performed by the private investor on the area of the “Zawiercie 3” ore and the results that were achieved thanks to them clearly indicate that well-designed and thoroughly performed exploratory and evaluative works that combine international standards and Polish guidelines can significantly influence the degree of documentation and the increase of resources in undeveloped Zn-Pb ores’ deposits.

This study deals with the research on the impact of the construction of a tire-building drum on the selected parameters of a passenger tire. The introductory part of the study deals with a comprehensive analysis of the production process and factors that affect the quality of the final tire product during production. The content of this analysis is also the naming of problematic parts and their subsequent influence on the resulting parameters of a passenger tire. The core of the study is an optimization design for improving the construction of the tire-building drum. The world-renowned TRIZ methodology was applied to achieve the desired improvement results. Using the TRIZ methodology, the technical system was analysed, identified problematic parts, and defined the technical and physical contradictions and proposed possibilities for their removal. The systematic approach to the solution of the task has generated options for the right solution and possible optimization by reducing the weight of individual parts of the tire-building drum. During analysis, simulations of the deformation and total stress will be available before and after optimization. The work’s conclusion describes the results of the simulation and the development process for the experimental testing possibilities of the optimized equipment. The study output is also a systematic procedure for testing the technical system, which can help designers design and optimize some parts of similar technical systems.

Published: August 2023

Introduction

Ascending aorta floating thrombus is a rare entity. Without rapid and specific management this condition has potential catastrophic consequences.

Case presentation

We report the case of a young woman diagnosed with acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and pulmonary embolism (PE) which revealed the existence of a suspicious aortic mass with a high embolic risk. The definite treatment was surgical resection, and the etiology of the mass was confirmed by histopathological examination. In this case, protein C deficiency was the only significant factor predisposing to thrombus formation.

Conclusions

This case illustrates the importance of performing a rapid and comprehensive cardiovascular evaluation, even when the initial presentation seems to suggest a clear diagnosis. Ascending aortic floating thrombus requires individualized management, and in specific situations a surgical approach is recommended.

Published: August 2023

The purpose of this study is to provide empirical evidence of the effect of Local Own Revenue (PAD) and Fixed Assets (AT) on Maintenance Expenditure (BP) at local governments in Indonesia during the Covid-19 pandemic using a multiple linear regression model. The data used is secondary data sourced from the audited local government financial statements (fiscal year 2020) of 215 local governments as the sample. We used the purposive sampling method. The sample criteria are local governments experiencing a deficit in 2019 and obtaining an unqualified opinion (WTP) in 2020. The results showed that PAD had a significant effect, while the AT variable did not have a significant effect on BP. These results prove that during the Covid-19 pandemic, the allocation of maintenance expenditures by local governments was not based on the amount of existing fixed assets.

The mandate of the Governor of Aceh Regulation No. 8 of 2022 regarding the management of Zakat and Infak emphasizes the management roles of Zakat and Infak along with the distribution mechanism and investment model according to Sharia principles. Baitul Mal Aceh, as the institution managing ZISWAF, must develop important strategic programs to reduce poverty in Aceh province, increase income redistribution, and enhance the welfare of the Acehnese people. The agricultural sector is essential to this study's consideration as an investment model for BMA Infak funds because it is the primary livelihood of the Acehnese people. This study uses a qualitative approach by applying SWOT analysis and the Business Model Canvas. The findings support the notion that combining BMA waqf assets with a partnership structure with the PEMA and the concepts of profit sharing, and ijarah will improve the investment model of BMA infaq funds with the mechanism of building a rice mill.
Dark Tetrad and Empathy: The Interrelationship of Narcissism, Psychopathy, Machiavellianism, and Sadism With Affective and Cognitive Empathy
Authors: Dow Gayle T. , Crawley Hannah
Published: August 2023

The Dark Triad, coined by Paulhus and Williams in 2002, consists of nonclinical psychopathy (violent tendencies and a lack of remorse), nonclinical narcissism (entitlement and need for admiration), and Machiavellianism (ruthlessness and exploitation) and others expanded it to include a fourth construct of sadism (pleasure in other’s suffering). Although the common unpinning of the Dark Tetrad is a lack of empathy, little empirical research has investigated the interrelationship among the components of the Dark Tetrad once empathy is delineated into affective (feeling another’s emotions) and cognitive (understanding another’s emotions) aspects. The purpose of this study was to determine the interrelationship of the Dark Tetrad and affective and cognitive empathy. Over 250 participants completed measures used to assess these constructs. We hypothesized that the Dark Tetrad would be inversely related to affective empathy, but Machiavellianism and narcissism would be positively related to cognitive empathy. The hypotheses were partially supported. Sequential (hierarchical) multiple regression yielded psychopathy, β = –.29, t(259) = –3.97, p = .001, narcissism, β = .20, t(260) = 3.26, p = .001, and Machiavellianism, β = –.17, t(259) = –2.46, p = .02, were significant negative predictors of affective empathy. Multiple linear regression yielded psychopathy, β = –.31, t(260) = 4.01, p < .001, was a negative predictor whereas narcissism, β=. 13, t(260) = 2.10, p = .04, was a positive predictor of cognitive empathy. Theoretical explanations to account for both negative and positive associations of the Dark Tetrad include empathic inducement or the ability to manipulate others by overwhelming them with emotions to solicit a sympathetic response. Future research should seek to examine the differing relationships among these traits, specifically narcissism as it manifests both negative and positive attributes of empathy simultaneously.

Published: August 2023

Subject. The article is devoted to comprehensive analysis of projects to improve the effectiveness of their implementation.
Objectives. The aim is to develop a comprehensive methodology for evaluating the effectiveness of project implementation in conditions of uncertainty and risk.
Methods. The study draws on systems approach, using general scientific research methods, like deduction, classification, systematization, synthesis, analysis, and empirical research tool, i.e. questionnaires. The theoretical basis of the study was the works of Russian scientists in the field of economic analysis.
Results. We developed a methodology for complex economic analysis and evaluation of project implementation efficiency. It includes three analytical blocks: project closure risk assessment by life cycle phase, based on integrated indicators obtained under the method of multidimensional comparison; project ranking, using the hierarchical cluster analysis of time, resource and quality limitation indicators as part of the total portfolio of projects; scoring diagnostics of the level of organizational, methodological and functional maturity of project management system, using the proposed system of test indicators.
Conclusions. It is necessary to organize analytical support for projects to increase the efficiency of their implementation and maintain the financial stability of an economic entity applying project management. The developed methodology enables evaluation upon project completion and after the end of individual phases, which makes it possible not only to prepare an information base for making operational management decisions, but also to generate data for adjusting the project management strategy in the organization.
O promissor potencial dos compostos canabinóides no tratamento ao câncer.
Authors: Silva Mariane
Published: August 2023

Este trabalho teve como principal objetivo despertar o interesse na busca de novas alternativas de tratamento para os mais variados tipos de câncer, considerando o grande volume de acometimentos desta doença em âmbito mundial, e pelo alto grau de letalidade que ela acarreta. Como os tratamentos convencionais não vêm alcançando resultados desejados na maior parte da população diagnosticada, pois impõem manifestações físicas adversas severas aos pacientes e em determinados tipos de tumores não são capazes de interromper o processo de proliferação do câncer, por estas razões, novas opções de terapias para controle da doença se fazem necessárias. No sentido de buscar tratamentos que possam contribuir para melhorar a qualidade de vida destes pacientes, e até mesmo a interrupção do processo tumoral, ampliam-se os estudos e pesquisas no cenário internacional, que vêm demonstrando um alto potencial terapêutico para substâncias derivadas do cânhamo, denominadas compostos canabinóides, que são interpretadas pelo sistema nervoso central, através do sistema endocanabinóide e seus receptores, que em recentes estudos vêm apontando a capacidade destas substâncias de induzir a apoptose em células tumorais de uma grande variedade de linhas de câncer. Desta forma este trabalho realizou uma revisão bibliográfica sobre o potencial antitumoral dos compostos canabinóides.

Published: August 2023

O SARS-CoV-2, coronavírus responsável pela Síndrome Respiratória Aguda Grave 2 (COVID-19) identificado em dezembro de 2019 em Wuhan, na China, ocasionou a contaminação em massa de chineses, que posteriormente atingiu todo o mundo. Por se tratar de um vírus recém-descoberto, não há até o momento em que este artigo foi escrito um tratamento eficaz para a doença. Devido a sua alta taxa de contaminação, muitas pessoas procuram medicamentos e suplementações, como a vitamina D, a fim de evitar a contaminação pelo vírus, porém não há evidências concretas de que esses produtos previnem a infecção. Deste modo, baseando-se na revisão bibliográfica e na coleta e análise de dados de moradores da Região Metropolitana de Campinas, o objetivo deste estudo foi evidenciar o aumento do uso da vitamina D e sua relação com a pandemia do novo coronavírus, os riscos do seu uso indiscriminado e o papel do profissional da saúde diante deste cenário. Foi possível constatar um aumento da suplementação de vitamina D no período da pandemia de COVID-19 impulsionado pelo aumento de indicações realizadas por profissionais da saúde nas mídias sociais e por meio de prescrições médicas. Recomenda-se cautela na prescrição da suplementação de colecalciferol para indivíduos sem antes realizar um exame, a fim de constatar os níveis séricos de vitamina D no organismo, deste modo determinando a necessidade ou não da suplementação. A suplementação inadequada pode gerar efeitos colaterais e distúrbios metabólicos que podem debilitar o paciente.

A Estação Ecológica do Pecém foi criada para proporcionar o equilíbrio ecológico do ecossistema de dunas móveis e edafisadas, que compõem as áreas próximas à construção do Complexo Portuário Industrial do Pecém (CIPP). Ela está situada nos municípios de Caucaia e São Gonçalo do Amarante e se constitui em uma Unidade de Conservação de Proteção Integral, possuindo inúmeras limitações em seu uso devido à legislação pertinente. Porém, devido ao contexto em que a ESEC do Pecém está inserida, uma série de vetores de pressão surgem e ameaçam toda a riqueza biológica da área. Através de consultas bibliográficas e visitas de campo, os vetores de pressão foram identificados e analisados. Dentre os principais resultados estão: desmatamentos, construções irregulares, atividade turística em locais inadequados, poluição e mau uso das trilhas. Essas pressões seriam minimizadas se houvesse um maior diálogo entre a gestão da Unidade de Conservação, a gestão dos municípios e a comunidade na qual ela está inserida. A pesquisa poderá contribuir como embasamento na gestão da ESEC do Pecém e de outras Unidades de Proteção Integral, também para o aprofundamento da discussão do tema.

Published: August 2023

The present study was carried out in Lumnitzera racemosa Willd. a dicotyledonous mangrove (family: Combretaceae). NaCl at the rate of 0 (control), 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900 and 1000 mM were given to 1 month old and fully established seedlings. Samplings were done on 60th 120th and 180th days after NaCl treatment. Chlorophyll, carotenoids, Net leaf photosynthesis, photosynthetic carboxylases and amylases were estimated from the samples. Salinity from sodium chloride encouraged the synthesis of carotenoid and chlorophyll in L. racemosa to the ideal concentration. When NaCl salinity is increased, photosynthetic properties such net leaf photosynthesis, stomatal conductance, transpiration, leaf chamber temperature, and intercellular CO2 concentration decreased. This information can be used to assess the effect of increasing concentration of salinity in crop plants.

Métodos: Revisão integrativa em que as produções científicas (PC) foram selecionadas nas bases de dados ScIELO e LILACS, utilizando os descritores combinados com o operador booleano “AND”: conselhos de saúde; controle social formal; acesso aos serviços de saúde; participação da comunidade. Selecionou-se 14 PC que foram analisadas por meio da análise de conteúdo temática, com o auxílio do software MAXQDA. Resultados: As instâncias do controle social têm desenvolvido ações que podem influenciar na garantia do acesso por permitir discussões e deliberações sobre demandas específicas da saúde da população, de questões organizacionais e estruturais dos serviços de saúde e relacionadas aos determinantes sociais da saúde. Entretanto, ainda enfrentam dificuldades/limites para sua atuação. Considerações finais: O potencial democrático dos Conselhos e das Conferências precisa ser ressignificado rumo a novas articulações que sejam capazes de ampliar a vocalização da sociedade civil e assim ampliar o acesso às ações e serviços públicos de saúde para toda população brasileira.

Objetivo: Analisar a transmissão vertical do vírus linfotrópico de células T humanas (HTLV). Revisão bibliográfica: O HTLV é um retrovírus humano e se apresenta, principalmente, de duas formas: o HTLV-1 e o HTLV-2. Esses vírus afetam as células T do sistema imunológico e podem levar a doenças graves, incluindo leucemia de células T, linfoma de células T e mielopatia associada ao HTLV-1, especialmente, cerca de 20 a 30 anos após a exposição. A sua transmissão ocorre por contato sexual, contato sanguíneo e via transmissão vertical. Pelo decurso do tempo necessário para se haver manifestações graves, é de extrema importância discutir sobre a transmissão vertical do HTLV. Considerações finais: Considera-se que o HTLV é uma doença silenciosa cuja testagem não é amplamente realizada, sendo imperativo o acompanhamento de sua incidência para a implementação de medidas preventivas da transmissão vertical desse vírus. Além disso, na abordagem de medidas para prevenir a transmissão de mãe para filho, deve-se considerar a relação custo-benefício na recomendação para suspender o aleitamento materno, haja vista seus benefícios aos lactentes.
