Published: January 2021

The management of natural disasters requires understanding their essence, making accurate assessments, planning, and providing appropriate solutions. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the physical resilience of the 22 neighborhoods of Babol located in the north of Iran against earthquakes. The methodology of this applied research study is descriptive-analytical. In this regard, by initially studying similar national and international studies, using the expert opinion of seismology and urban planning specialists and interviewing experienced urban managers in the field of crisis management, 30 effective indices on physical resilience against earthquake risk were extracted. Then, using analytic functions of GIS software and multi-criteria models including AHP, TOPSIS, VIKOR and COPRAS, the physical resilience of Babol against earthquakes was evaluated. Then, in order to obtain accurate results, using the integration models including the Statistic, BORDA and COPELAND, the physical resilience of Babol's 22 neighborhoods was evaluated. The analysis of the final GIS maps shows that neighborhoods 2, 3, 4, 5, and 11 have very high physical resilience and neighborhoods 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14 have very low physical resilience against earthquakes.

Authors: Bina Mehdi , Ali Arian Mohammad , Pourkermani Mohsen , Hasan Bazoobandi Mohammad , Yazdi Abdollah
Published: January 2021

The study area is located in Lavasanat District in the northeast of Tehran in Central Alborz zone. The outcrops are mainly linked to Karaj Formation, which belongs to the upper Eocene to Oligocene periods. In the study area, there are various plutonic rocks that are identified in the form of numerous dike and sill on the ground. These sills are injected in between sedimentary layers. The rocks forming the sills include the spectrum of gabbro, gabbro diorite, diorite, monzonite, and syenite. In some areas, these rocks have undergone alterations and have traces of the saussuritization and chloritization phenomena. There are also two generations of amorphous. The first generation is fully chloritized due to alteration while the second generation is unaltered. Unlike many diorites and monzonites, which typically have hornblendes, the neutral rocks such as diorite and monzonite lack hornblendes. Hence, their magmas were dry and dehydrated. Based on the geochemical studies conducted on 17 samples (15 sill samples and 2 host rock samples) and the diagrams of the tectonic settings of rocks, the study sills are in the WIN (within plate). However, two samples of the host rock are within the range of the active continental margins.
Mineral chemistry and geothermobarometry of gabbroic rocks from the Gysel area, Alborz mountains, north Iran
Authors: Farahi Farzaneh , Taki Saeed , Salavati Mojgan
Published: January 2021

The gabbroic rocks in the Gysel area of the Central Alborz Mountains in north Iran are intruded into the Eocene Volcano-sedimentary units. The main gabbroic rocks varieties include gabbro porphyry, olivine gabbro, olivine dolerite and olivine monzo-gabbro. The main minerals phases in the rocks are plagioclase and pyroxene and the chief textures are sub-hedral granular, trachytoidic, porphyritic, intergranular and poikilitic. Electron microprobe analyses on minerals in the rock samples shows that plagioclase composition ranges from labradorite to bytonite, with oscillatory and normal chemical zonings. Clinopyroxene is augite and orthopyroxene is hypersthene to ferro-hypersthene. Thermometry calculations indicate temperatures of 650˚C to 750˚C for plagioclase crystallization and 950˚C to 1130˚C for pyroxene crystallization. Clinopyroxene chemistry reveals sub-alkaline and calc-alkaline nature for the parental magma emplaced in a volcanic arc setting.
Routing cross-docking depots, considering the time windows and pricing routes (case study: container transportation of Chabahar port)
Authors: Bavar Farhad , Sabzehparvar Majid , Ahmadi Rad Mona
Published: January 2021

In this study, we develop a model for routing cross-docking centers considering time windows and pricing routs. In this model picking and delivery in several times is permitted and each knot can be serviced by more than one vehicle. Every truck can transport one or more product, in other words, we consider compatibility between product and vehicle. This model includes two goals: reducing the total cost and reducing the cost of carrying goods (freight fare). The total cost includes the cost required to traverse between the points, the cost of traversing the routes between the central cross-docking center and the first points after moving, and the cost to traverse the routes between the last points in each route and the depots that must be minimized. In general, the purpose of the model is to obtain the number of cross-docking center, the number of vehicles and the best route in the distribution network. We present a nonlinear programming model for this problem. We have solved the proposed model by GAMS. As the dimensions of the problem increase, the implementation time of the program increases progressively. So, in order to solve the model in medium and large scales, we proposed a genetic meta-heuristic algorithm. The results of examining different issues by the meta-heuristic approach show the very high efficiency of the developed algorithms in terms of the solution time and the answer of the problem.

Published: January 2021

This article solves the problem of collection scoring models constructing and researching. The relevance of solving this problem on the intelligent modeling technologies basis: decision trees, logistic regression and neural networks is noted. The initial data for the models was a set of 14 columns and 5779 rows. The models construction was performed in Deductor platform. Each model was tested on the set of 462 records. For all models, the corresponding classification matrix were constructed and the1st and 2nd kind errors were calculated, as well as the general error of the models. In terms of minimizing these errors, logistic regression showed the worst results, and the neural network showed the best. In addition, the constructed models effectiveness was evaluated according to «income» and «time» criteria. By the time costs the logistic regression model exceeds other models. However, in terms of income the neural network model was the best. Thus, the results showed that in order to minimize the time spent on work with debtors it is advisable to use a logistic model. However, to maximize profits and minimize classification errors, it is appropriate to use a neural network model. This indicates its effectiveness and practical use possibility in intelligent scoring systems.

Authors: Martyshkin Alexey I.
Published: January 2021

This study is devoted to the challenges of motion planning for mobile robots with smart machine vision systems. Motion planning for mobile robots in the environment with obstacles is a problem to deal with when creating robots suitable for operation in real-world conditions. The solutions found today are predominantly private, and are highly specialized, which prevents judging of how successful they are in solving the problem of effective motion planning. Solutions with a narrow application field already exist and are being already developed for a long time, however, no major breakthrough has been observed yet. Only a systematic improvement in the characteristics of such systems can be noted. The purpose of this study: develop and investigate a motion planning algorithm for a mobile robot with a smart machine vision system. The research subject for this article is a motion planning algorithm for a mobile robot with a smart machine vision system. This study provides a review of domestic and foreign mobile robots that solve the motion planning problem in a known environment with unknown obstacles. The following navigation methods are considered for mobile robots: local, global, individual. In the course of work and research, a mobile robot prototype has been built, capable of recognizing obstacles of regular geometric shapes, as well as plan and correct the movement path. Environment objects are identified and classified as obstacles by means of digital image processing methods and algorithms. Distance to the obstacle and relative angle are calculated by photogrammetry methods, image quality is improved by linear contrast enhancement and optimal linear filtering using the Wiener-Hopf equation. Virtual tools, related to mobile robot motion algorithm testing, have been reviewed, which led us to selecting Webots software package for prototype testing. Testing results allowed us to make the following conclusions. The mobile robot has successfully identified the obstacle, planned a path in accordance with the obstacle avoidance algorithm, and continued moving to the destination. Conclusions have been drawn regarding the concluded research.

The response of active ingredient, chlorophyll a and b contents, and chlorophyll index of henna to different rates of N fertilization and drought stress was explored in a split-split-plot experiment based on a randomized complete block design with four replications in the research farm of Jiroft Branch, Islamic Azad University, Jiroft, Iran in the 2016-2017 growing season. In the current study, the main plot was assigned to drought stress at three levels (including irrigation to supply 100%, 75% or 50% of plant water requirement), the sub-plot was assigned to N fertilization at three rates (50, 100 or 150 kg ha-1 pure N), and the sub-sub-plot was assigned to ecotype at three levels (Bami, Bushehri, and Rudbari). The results showed that the effect of drought level was significant on active ingredient and chlorophyll index at the p < 0.01 level and on chlorophyll a, total chlorophyll, and chlorophyll a/b ratio at the p < 0.05 level.  But, it could not influence chlorophyll b significantly. The effect of N fertilization was significant on most studied traits at the p< 0.01 level, but its effect was significant on the chlorophyll index at the p < 0.05 level and insignificant on dye and chlorophyll b. According to the results, it seems that the application of 100 kg ha-1 N and the irrigation to supply 75% of plant water requirement can contribute to having more fresh plants with the higher active ingredient and dye contents.

En la actualidad el crecimiento de las ciudades ha traído consigo el aumento de la contaminación de diversos tipos, entre ellas se destaca la contaminación acústica generada por el exceso de ruido ambiental. En la ciudad de Bluefields existen diversos centros de enseñanza inicial que se encuentran en la zona de mayor actividad comercial de lo localidad. Por este motivo y el desconocimiento de los actuales niveles de contaminación acústica en dos de estos centros se ha desarrollado esta investigación en la que se miden los niveles de ruido ambiental de fondo en el interior y exterior de los Colegios San José y de la Asociación Nicaragüense de Docentes de Nicaragua (ANDEN). Se empleó un sonómetro tipo 2 para medir los niveles de ruido con los que se estimaron el tiempo de reverberación (eco), la intangibilidad de la palabra y la molestia acústica. Las mediciones se realizaron por una semana lectiva en ambos centros en horarios de 7:00 am a 12:00 md. Los resultados demostraron que los niveles de ruido interior y exterior en ambos centros exceden los niveles permisibles de acuerdo a la legislación nacional e internacional. El nivel de ruido continuo equivalente registrado en el colegio San José (92.83 dBA) y ANDEN (83.14 dBA) indican que los docentes y discentes están expuestos a posibles problemas de salud que se ven expresados en estrés y dolores de cabeza. Se hace necesario el diseño de una estrategia para la reducción del impacto del ruido por medio de acciones ejecutadas entre los colegios, las autoridades educativas locales y la municipalidad.

Authors: Barbosa Leandro César Mol , Carvalho Rodrigo Baroni , Versiani Ângela França , Pedron Cristiane Drebes
Published: January 2021

Introdução: As Organizações Baseadas em Projetos (OBPs) possuem como principal característica a flexibilidade de atuação no mercado. Embora positiva, tal flexibilidade resulta em barreiras ligadas a questões intrínsecas dos projetos como a temporalidade, singularidade e seu grau de independência, dificultando a Gestão do Conhecimento (GC). Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar a influência das barreiras para a GC no ambiente das OBPs. Método: Utilizando-se de uma abordagem qualitativa, foi realizado um estudo de casos múltiplos compreendendo três Empresas de Engenharia de Projetos Industriais (EEPIs), as quais se enquadram como OBPs. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevistas, observação direta e documentos.  Resultados: Quatro das seis barreiras descritas na literatura foram confirmadas, sendo estas a temporalidade, a pouca dedicação à GC, uso de equipes temporárias e o grau de independência dos projetos. Barreiras como a terceirização, o trabalho a distância e os custos de dedicação à GC foram incluídas. Constatou-se também que a falta de rotinas não faz parte do ambiente das EEPIs e que a singularidade dos projetos não é uma barreira e sim uma oportunidade de gerar conhecimento. Conclusão: A Gestão do Conhecimento em OBPs está sujeita a particularidades que dificultam sua disseminação, conservação e uso. A análise das barreiras que dificultam a GC nestes ambientes possibilitou não somente a verificação desta influência em seus processos, como a forma e extensão com que as barreiras para GC se manifestam.
RECOGNIZING PORPHYRY COPPER POTENTIAL FROM TILL ZIRCON COMPOSITION: A CASE STUDY FROM THE HIGHLAND VALLEY PORPHYRY DISTRICT, SOUTH-CENTRAL BRITISH COLUMBIA

Published: January 2021

The detrital zircons in tills overlying the Guichon Creek batholith, British Columbia, Canada, have trace element concentrations and ages similar to those of zircons from the bedrock samples from which they are interpreted to have been sourced. Rocks from the core of the batholith that host porphyry copper mineralization have distinct zircon compositions relative to the distal, barren margin. We analyzed 296 zircons separated from 12 subglacial till samples to obtain U-Pb ages and trace element compositions. Laser ablation U-Pb ages of the detrital zircons overlap within error with chemical abrasion-thermal ionization mass spectrometry U-Pb ages of the Late Triassic Guichon Creek batholith and confirm that the detrital zircons are likely derived from the batholith. The youngest intrusions of the batholith produced the Highland Valley Copper porphyry deposits and contain distinctive zircons with elevated Eu/EuN* >0.4 attributed to high magmatic water contents and oxidation states, indicating higher porphyry copper potential. Zircon from till samples adjacent to and 9 km down-ice from the mineralized centers have mean Eu/EuN* >0.4, which are indicative of potential porphyry copper mineralization. Detrital zircon grains from more distal up- and down-ice locations (10–15 km) have zircon Eu/EuN* mean values of 0.26 to 0.37, reflecting background values. We conclude that detrital zircon compositions in glacial sediments transported several kilometers can be used to establish the regional potential for porphyry copper mineralization.
Exhumation and Preservation of Paleozoic Porphyry Cu Deposits: Insights from the Yandong Deposit, Southern Central Asian Orogenic Belt
Authors: Gong Lin , Kohn Barry P. , Zhang Zhiyong , Xiao Bing , Wu Lin , Chen Huayong
Published: January 2021

Paleozoic porphyry copper deposits are generally much less common than their Mesozoic or Cenozoic counterparts, as they can be completely eroded in rapidly uplifting arcs. There are, however, some large Paleozoic porphyry copper deposits preserved worldwide, especially in the Central Asian orogenic belt, although the processes by which these ancient porphyry deposits were preserved are poorly constrained. The Carboniferous Yandong porphyry copper deposit was selected as a case study to resolve this issue using a combination of thermal history models derived from low-temperature thermochronology data and regional geologic records. Our results show that Yandong preserves a record of at least two episodes of cooling separated by a phase of mild Middle Jurassic reheating. These two cooling events included one major event, linked to the Qiangtang collision or northward motion of Tarim plate during the late Permian to Triassic, and one minor event, possibly related to the Lhasa collision or closure of Mongol-Okhotsk Ocean from the Middle Jurassic to Early Cretaceous, respectively. Tectonic quiescence and limited exhumation prevailed from the Late Cretaceous to Cenozoic in the Yandong area. Combining our results with regional geologic records, we propose that extensional tectonic subsidence, postmineralization burial, dry paleoclimatic conditions, and Cenozoic tectonic quiescence were key factors for the preservation of Yandong. This study demonstrates that anomalously old apatite fission track ages, integrated with age-elevation relationships, can have implications for mineral exploration strategies in the Chinese Tianshan orogens.
Crustal-Scale Geology and Fault Geometry Along the Gold-Endowed Matheson Transect of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt

Published: January 2021

Gold in the Abitibi greenstone belt in the Superior craton, the most prolific gold-producing greenstone terrane in the world, comes largely from complex orogenic mineralizing systems related to deep crustal deformation zones. In order to get a better understanding of these systems, we therefore combined new magnetic, gravity, seismic, and magnetotelluric data with stratigraphic and structural observations along a transect in the Matheson area of the Abitibi greenstone belt to constrain large-scale geologic models of the Archean crust. A high-resolution seismic transect reveals that the well-known Porcupine Destor fault dips shallowly to the south, whereas the Pipestone fault dips steeply to the north. Facing directions and gravity models indicate that these faults are thrust faults where older mafic volcanic rocks overlie a younger sedimentary basin. The depth of the basin reaches ~2 to 2.5 km between these two faults, where it is interpreted to overlie mafic-dominated volcanic substrata. Regional seismic and magnetotelluric surveys image the full crust down to 36-km depth to reveal a heterogeneous architecture. Three crustal-scale layers include a resistive (104–105 Ωm) upper crust of granite-greenstone rocks, a low-resistivity (~10–50 Ωm) middle crust dominated by granitic plutons for which low resistivity is attributed to the presence of graphite, and a low to moderately resistive (50–1,000 Ωm) and seismically homogeneous lower crust interpreted as granulite gneisses. The significant resistivity transition between upper and middle crust is interpreted to be the result of interconnected micrographite grain coating, precipitated from carbon-bearing crustal fluids emplaced during Neoarchean craton stabilization. A major subvertical, seismically transparent, and extremely low resistive (<10 Ωm) corridor connects the lower and middle crust with the upper crust. The geometry of this low-resistivity feature supports its interpretation as a deep-rooted extensional fault system where the corridor acted as a regional-scale conduit for gold-bearing hydrothermal fluids from a ductile source region in the lower crust to the depositional site in the brittle upper crust. We propose that this newly discovered whole crustal corridor focused the hydrothermal fluids into the Porcupine Destor fault in the Matheson region.

Evolution in ACL Autograft Harvesting Techniques: Transition to Minimally Invasive Autograft Harvesting
Authors: Dennison James M. , Andrews James R.
Published: January 2021

Surgical techniques for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction continue to evolve. Harvesting techniques for commonly used ACL autografts such as bone patellar tendon bone, hamstring, and quadriceps tendon have similarly continued to progress. Traditional larger incisions for graft harvesting that were described in the 1980s have given way to smaller or more minimally invasive techniques. Advantages of these techniques are primarily anatomy based and include the following: decreased nerve complaints such as hypoesthesia or dysesthesia, improved cosmesis, decreased surgical site pain or morbidity, and, in the case of hamstring harvesting, easier tendon identification. The current literature supports reproducible minimally invasive or modified graft harvesting techniques for bone patellar tendon bone, hamstring, and quadriceps tendon autografts. Specialized instrumentation is available to simplify the harvesting process. Each of these techniques is described in detail outlining surgical steps, technical considerations, and precautions. Knowledge and review of these techniques provides the surgeon with greater flexibility and options when choosing and harvesting autograft tissue for ACL reconstruction.

The Making of a Good Woman: Why Do Pre-School Girls in the KSA Have to Navigate Two Different Worlds to Survive Socially?
Authors: Al zahrani Mona
Published: January 2021

The article discusses how young females navigate and develop a solid sense of two worlds in order to be perceived a ‘good girl’ that can be positioned within the society and maintain the female gender identity that is expected of them in the future. One world is where they are expected to show all the attributes of femininity and beauty and the other world is where they are required to develop a strong sense of ‘self-control’, to be ‘a good girl’ who complies with societal confinements and restrictions on their female body and mobility. This article has emerged from a doctorate research entitled: The Making of a Good Woman: Analysing children’s narratives on female gender identity and role in pre-school Saudi Arabia. It was a study into how female gender identity is constructed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) by analysing children’s (young girls 4-6 years) perspectives within pre-school, exploring their perceptions of female identity and role in the KSA. Exploring the ways in which gender identities were interpreted and manifested; studying the influences, apparent ideologies and discourses that affect female gender construction. Through the analysis of the data, interesting results emerged that exposed the consideration of gender roles, permissible and non-permissible behaviour and attitudes, and the realisation that female gender is often constructed, in the KSA, through fear and restrictions.

Published: January 2021

En este artículo realizo una investigación teórica, con elementos del método de análisis-síntesis y del derecho comparado, de una veintena de documentos judiciales —estatales y federales mexicanos— sobre el halconeo, una conducta tipificada penalmente y que alude a la vigilancia informal de algunos individuos, sobre todo jóvenes, para la delincuencia organizada. Tras seleccionar y clasificar esas fuentes abiertas, identifico dos ideas subyacentes: la delimitación de espacios contaminantes y el uso de objetos con supuestas capacidades extraordinarias para condenar a su poseedor. El resultado de mi argumentación es que la figura jurídica del halconeo puede ilustrar una manera en que las instituciones mexicanas están poniendo del revés lo que consideraríamos como notorio. Esto, a su vez, supone que desde el discurso jurídico oficial se difunde ambigüedad sobre qué es verdad o mentira. Sin embargo, esto también nos permite describir qué idea de secreto tienen algunas instancias del Estado mexicano.

En un contexto de transformación sociodemográfica, se prevé que el envejecimiento de ciertas generaciones, como la llamada generación baby boom, conlleve la reclamación de nuevos espacios de participación social. Ello nos invita a explorar la diversificación de conceptualizaciones sobre el principio de participación social de los miembros de esta generación situados en diferentes momentos respecto a su entrada en el período de jubilación, pre/post (50-73 años). Para lo cual realizamos cuatro grupos de discusión, cuyo análisis de contenido de los datos nos permitió interpretar los significados en torno a tres ejes: la interacción con los demás, las formas de participación y la contribución social. Finalmente, abordamos los desafíos derivados del proceso de resignificación de la participación social; entre otros, la necesidad de promover activamente la autonomía, la autodeterminación, el desarrollo de espacios de agenciamiento y valoración social de las personas mayores presentes y futuras.

Published: January 2021

Este estudio evalúa las ideas de Jane Jacobs, conocida activista y pensadora urbana, aplicadas a la ciudad de Barcelona. Para ello, en primer lugar, se sintetizan las seis condiciones básicas de Jacobs para la vitalidad urbana por distritos y por barrios. En segundo lugar, se relaciona la vitalidad urbana en los barrios con los principales patrones de movilidad cotidiana de las personas residentes. Si bien los barrios de Barcelona presentan considerables diferencias por lo que se refiere a sus condiciones para la vitalidad, se ha detectado a su vez una clara relación de dichos niveles con las pautas de movilidad cotidiana de la población, con un especial vínculo con los desplazamientos a pie y de proximidad. Este trabajo muestra de qué modo la aplicación de las ideas de Jacobs a una ciudad mediterránea como Barcelona permite analizar los efectos que generan distintos tipos de tejidos urbanos.
DOES GERSTMANN SYNDROME EXIST?

Published: January 2021

The aim of the study is to present Gerstmann syndrome, manifested as a
neuropsychological deficit resulting from the damage to the parietal lobe of the left
hemisphere. Here it is discussed based on the studies conducted mainly since the 1950’s
when it attracted considerable interest, as well as and controversy at the same time. The
classic symptoms are briefly described, including the clinical tasks useful in any the diagnosis
for during the neuropsychological assessment. The paper also presents recent studies and a
alternative different proposal for the understanding of this clinical syndrome.
Josef Gerstmann described a clinical tetrad in his patients, which was later to be
known as Gerstmann syndrome. The symptoms included finger agnosia, agraphia, acalculia
and left-right disorientation. He associated the above symptoms with damage to the left
angular gyrus, hence the alternative a different name for of the syndrome i.e., the angular gyrus syndrome. The existence of the syndrome was questioned for some time, something which was never approved by Gerstmann. Currently, the occurrence of the syndrome is confirmed by studies. However, the full and pure tetrad of the classic symptoms as observed is not common. The clinical picture of the syndrome often usually remains incomplete and is related to other neuropsychological deficits such as aphasia, which frequently occurs. In modern considerations, the language deficiencies of semantic aphasia are not treated as non-
Gerstmann syndrome, disturbing its pure form, but are considered to be a part of
Gerstmann syndrome as such.
Effect of Metallisation of Basalt Fabric on Its Surface Resistivity

The main aim of the research was to carry out the surface modification of basalt fabric in order to improve selected thermal properties of the material, i.e., resistance to contact and radiant heat, to apply it in a hot work environment. Attention was focused on checking whether the metal coating deposited does not cause too high conductivity, which is dangerous to human health. The process of magnetron sputtering with the use of chromium and aluminum of various thickness values was applied to basalt fabrics. Based on scanning electron microscope analysis, it was found that none of the aluminum or chromium coatings covered 100% of the basalt fabric surface. Results of the surface resistance analysis of four out of the six samples of basalt fabrics tested indicate that they belong to anti-static materials. The metallic coatings obtained can potentially be used to improve the thermal properties of basalt fabric mentioned.
New Design of a Boost Drive Circuit with an Energy Recovery Function for the Piezoelectric Jacquard Needle

Published: January 2021

Aiming at the technical bottlenecks existing in the current warp knitting machine control system such as jacquard drive circuit, the design method of self-boosting power supply circuit integrated with jacquard driver is proposed for the embedded warp knitting machine jacquard control system for miniaturization design. The voltage boost circuit designed can boost the low voltage from the input of the working power supply to the high voltage for the output to drive the oscillation of the piezoelectric ceramic jacquard needles. Since the circuit adopts energy storage inductance instead of current-limiting resistor to optimize the driving circuit, it not only limits the forward charging current of the piezoelectric ceramic, but also effectively realize the energy recovery function. The effectiveness of the design method is verified by simulation.
Temporary Use of Skeletal Traction in Management of Pediatric Supracondylar Humeral Fractures
Authors: Zając Piotr , Zając Piotr
Published: January 2021

Background. The paper presents a treatment algorithm for supracondylar humeral fractures in children, involving temporary use of skeletal traction following failure of primary closed reduction and percutaneous fixation (CRPF) and introducing closed reduction after management by skeletal traction. The aim of this study was to assess the outcomes of supracondylar humerus fracture treatment performed according to the algorithm.
Material and methods. The treatment was performed in 149 children (70 girls, 79 boys) with extension-type supracondylar humeral fractures. The study group was assessed with regard to a modified Gartland classification, neurological complications (12 children, 8%) and vascular complications (8 children, 5.4%). A total of 124 (83.2%) patients underwent emergency CRPF and 24 children (16.1%) received skeletal traction after a failed CRPF. After
2-6 days, an elective repeat CRPF procedure was attempted, which was successful in 17 children. The attempt failed in the other 7 children, who received traction and underwent open reduction under a single anesthesia. One child (0.7%) with a white and pulseless hand was treated by emergency open reduction and percutaneous fixation.
Results. The study used the Flynn criteria modified by the author. After 6 months, the results in the group treated with CRPF (both primary and following skeletal traction) were good in 90.8% of patients, satisfactory in 8.5%, and poor in 0.7%, whereas in the open reduction and percutaneous fixation group, the results were good in 87.5% of cases and satisfactory in 12.5%.
Conclusions. 1. X-ray-guided closed reduction and percutaneous K wire fixation is a method of choice in the treatment of displaced supracondylar humeral fractures in children. If closed reduction fails, the surgeon is faced with a choice between primary open reduction and the use of direct traction through the olecranon. 2. The use of skeletal traction following failure of primary emergency CRPF results in local improvement in the fracture region and allows for scheduling an elective repeat delayed closed reduction and percutaneous K wire fixation procedure. 3. The algorithm used in clinical practice, based on literature reports and the author’s experience, helps achieve good treatment outcomes.
Oferta de aborto legal na atenção primária à saúde
Authors: Maia Melanie Noël
Published: January 2021

O acesso ao aborto legal foi dificultado em várias partes do mundo em decorrência da pandemia por SARS-CoV-2. No Brasil, a legislação e regulamentação referentes ao aborto configuram um campo em disputa, fortemente marcado na atualidade por iniciativas conservadoras que visam suprimir este direito reprodutivo. Neste artigo, são apresentados argumentos em defesa da oferta de aborto legal em serviços de atenção primária à saúde como mecanismo de facilitação do acesso ao procedimento e preservação dos direitos das mulheres. Apesar de ser recomendada pela Organização Mundial de Saúde e já estar estabelecida em outros países, a participação da atenção primária ainda é incipiente no cenário nacional neste debate. Espera-se sensibilizar médicos de família e comunidade e demais atores relevantes para o potencial deste nível de atenção no provimento do aborto legal.

This work aimed to study personality rights in the legal system, focused on the internet with a focus on image advertising rights, to discuss the reflexes of continuity (forgetfulness). For this, the deductive method was used. In this way, the consequences of the right to use the image and the right to be forgotten were studied. It was observed that the theme is related to personality rights and that it has constitutionalprotection, focused on fundamental rights as a way for the State to intervene and enforce the rights of the holder of the right to image and oblivion. However, when used in disagreement with the constitutional and infraconstitutional mandate causing damage to its holder, the right to indemnity action is guaranteed.
