Evolution of liver transplantation in the metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease era: Tracking impact through time
Authors: Sato-Espinoza Karina , Chotiprasidhi Perapa , Liza Estefanía , Placido-Damian Zuly , Diaz-Ferrer Javier
Published: September 2024

Liver transplantation (LT) for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is increasing globally due to rising rates of obesity and metabolic syndrome, posing significant challenges. MASLD patients typically present with advanced age, higher body mass index (BMI), and metabolic comorbidities such as diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Comprehensive pre-transplant evaluations are crucial for assessing surgical risks and preparing patients for transplantation. MASLD patients with higher BMI may experience longer operative times, potentially affecting intraoperative outcomes. In the months following LT, MASLD recipients face persistent challenges, including a higher incidence of metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular events compared to non-MASLD recipients. However, survival rates at 1-, 3-, and 5-years post-LT do not markedly differ from other etiologies, indicating comparable surgical outcomes. Optimizing outcomes in MASLD patients undergoing LT demands a multidisciplinary approach from pre-transplant assessment to post-transplant care. Strategies must address metabolic comorbidities, manage cardiovascular health, and monitor steatosis recurrence, which can be exacerbated by obesity and diabetes. This approach aims to mitigate long-term graft complications and mortality risks, ultimately enhancing transplant success and patient well-being. Continued research is essential to refine these approaches and meet the evolving challenges posed by MASLD as a leading indication for LT worldwide.

A Física como ciência voltada para a compreensão da natureza, utiliza diferentes formas para a transmissão do conhecimento, estando os processos de transposição didática no cerne da estratégia docente. Para o ensino substantivo da Física, faz-se necessário o uso adequado de processos linguísticos especificamente direcionados para a Educação de Jovens e Adultos, considerando as especificidades desta modalidade. Sendo assim, este artigo, configurado num estudo bibliográfico de natureza narrativa-qualitativa, tem por objetivo discutir crítico-reflexivamente como os fenômenos linguísticos impactam a prática do professor de Física e como estes podem ser empregadas de forma estratégica no ensino conceitual dos conteúdos. Para isso, foram consultados trabalhos publicados entre 2013 e 2023 presentes nos portais de acesso livre Scielo e Oasisbr, sendo estabelecidos descritores de busca, critérios de inclusão e exclusão para a seleção da base bibliográfica utilizada para substanciar as reflexões apresentadas ao longo do texto. Ao final, fica evidenciada a importância da apropriação linguística na prática do professor de Física para o aprendizado crítico, questionador e interpretativo na Educação de Jovens e Adultos, levando o sujeito a identificar, explicando adequadamente os fenômenos naturais que o cercam na vida cotidiana.

Traffic accidents caused by tiredness, exhaustion, and distracted driving are a big concern on a global scale. As per global Road Safety reports drowsy driving was reason for 91,000 road accidents in Tamil Nadu in the year 2023. In this study, I suggest a collective deep learning architecture for automatic driver sleepiness detection while some earlier works are suggested extracting the lips and eyes movements to identify sleepiness, more contemporary computer vision-based systems have performed only somewhat well. This is because they either use extremely large deep learning models with still-poor performance or they use hand-crafted features with traditional methods like K-NN Algotithm and openCV. To overcome such issues in this project I am planing to create a Driver Drowsiness Detection and Alerting System using Mediapipe‘s Face Mesh solution in Python. These systems assess the driver‘s alertness and warn the driver if needed. Continuous driving can be tedious and exhausting. A motorist may get droopy and perhaps nod off due to inactivity. we will create a drowsy driver detection system to address such an issue. For this, we will use Mediapipe‘s Face Mesh solution in python and the Eye Aspect ratio formula using by Navie Bayes Algorithm. My goal is to create a robust and easy-to-use application that detects and alerts users if their eyes are closed for a long time. Keyword: Navie Baye’s, Mediapipe Framework.

Exploring Emotion in Global Citizenship Education : Focusing on M. Nussbaum's Capabilities Approach
Authors:   Education Research Institute, Lee Yujeong , Seo Narae
Published: September 2024

Global citizenship education equips learners with the knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes necessary for fostering a peaceful, secure, and environmentally sustainable world. Martha Nussbaum, a renowned philosopher and ethicist, emphasizes the role that emotions play in global citizenship education through capabilities. This study argues that emotions, as conceptualized in Nussbaum's capabilities approach, are essential to global citizenship education. Chapter II focuses on emotions, one of Nussbaum's ten fundamental human capabilities, while Chapter III examines the role of emotions within global citizenship. Negative emotions like fear and jealousy coule hinder global citizenship by dehumanizing others, while hatred and shame contribute to division. Conversely, positive emotions such as compassion and love promote global citizenship by encouraging understanding and recognizing human worth. Rather than merely eliminating negative emotions, emotional education builds resilience against discrimination and fosters compassion and love for humanity. Practical application is needed across cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains, and through legal and institutional alternatives. Through such education, global citizenship education could significantly promote stronger global solidarity and collaboration.

Published: September 2024

This study was intended identify wisdom in Mo-tzu that would go beyond today's developmental natural view as the unequal consequences of global environmental destruction intensify. Mozi says that it is righteous to benefit all and that this is in line with the will of heaven. This view of nature gives rise to his pragmatic view of education. We can see that the educational ideology based on Mozi's Jianai(兼愛) requests the transformation of the view of nature in modern environmental education and that concepts such as non-community, theft, burial, and heaven and earth be reinterpreted using a specific method. In particular, it is necessary to reinterpret the view of nature suggested by the classics to improve reflection, and integrated environmental (natural and human) thinking, which are sub-areas related to the concepts of environmental community or reflection and insight. These in turn encompass aspects of the national curriculum, such as environmental consciousness, environmental views, environmental ethics, participation and responsibility, consideration, cooperation, autonomy, self-reflection, and environmental (natural and human) thinking.

Authors: Parkinson Lisa
Published: September 2024

There is growing acceptance of the need for national standards for family mediation training and practice. In some countries, mediation has achieved the status of a new profession. In others, mediation is carried out without accredited training or regulation of family mediators” practice. Many countries now have legislation with provision for family mediation. This can result in competition between different professions as to who is best qualified to be a family mediator. Some members of the legal profession consider that the right to practise family mediation should be restricted to qualified lawyers. Others accept that mediators trained in counselling or psychology offer knowledge and skills that are needed in mediating with couples and families during separation and divorce. This article explores the essentially interdisciplinary nature of family mediation as a new and distinct profession. This discipline needs regulation and national standards to establish its status and to ensure the quality of family mediation practice.

De la ciencia a la práctica en la intervención comunitaria. La transferencia del conocimiento científico a la actuación profesional
Authors: MAYA JARIEGO Isidro
Published: September 2024

Scientific research and social intervention are usually seen as two disconected worlds. In order to bridging the gap between science and practice, we present a practice-centered model of application. Using the framework developed by Wandersman (2003), eight strategies to facilitate knowledge transfer are proposed. As well as the disemination of scientific information, the model includes three other kinds of strategies: (a) management and sistematization of professional practice, (b) colaboration between researchers and practitioners, and (c) community empowerment. To illustrate the model the case of substance abuse prevention programs is analysed. CITE AS:Maya Jariego, I. (2010). De la ciencia a la práctica en la intervención comunitaria.

Los dos mundos de un mediador de divorcio
Authors: Marlow Lenard
Published: September 2024

Divorce mediators live in two very diferent worlds (of divorce). For heuristic purposes, I will contrast them as the world of their conferences and quarterlies, on the one hand, and the world of their private practices, on the other. Each of these is grounded in very different pictures (wiews) of the world itself. Divorce mediators erroneously privilege one of those worlds over the other, as a result of which they improperly make judgements about one that are derived from the other. Moreover, they do this despite the fact that these two worlds are incommesurate and have nothing to do with one another.
Implicaciones de la teoría de la autoeficacia en la gestión de organizaciones
Authors: Cisneros Inmaculada F. J. , Munduate Jaca Lourdes
Published: September 2024

El marco conceptual de la Teoría Social Cognitiva, derivada fundamentalmente de las propuestas de Albert Bandura (1986), ha supuesto un avance substancial en la comprensión de los mecanismos motivacionales que inciden sobre las acciones humanas. Esta aportación se ha originado, fundamentalmente, al superarse los aspectos explicativos y predictivos de la conducta y añadir un aspecto más operativo orientado a la mejora de los resultados de dichas conductas. Este marco conceptual nos permite conocer, efectivamente, el modo en que las personas ejercen influencia sobre sus motivaciones y acciones mediante una serie de mecanismos de autoregulación, entre los que se incluyen la autoeficacia y la asignación de metas (Bandura, 1986).

This article discusses various factors that should be considered in the judicial supervision of the agreements reached in a family mediation process. Marriage is a private institution subject to legal regulation. The tension between self-regulation and social intervention in this case is most evident in situations of crisis. The alternative of mediation offers a new methodology for facing the consequences of the crisis, Its correct application requires a precise definition of the roles of the practitioners responsible for the mediation, the couple” s lawyers and the judge. The judge, when he/she approves the agreements, must review their legality relative to the personal and family statutes (personality, civil status, filiation and material needs), guaranteeing fundamental rights of the persons involved.

Mediación: reflexiones desde una toga
Authors: Caso Mercedes
Published: September 2024

The legal system often fails when it attempts to find solutions to family conflicts. They often entail aspects that exceed what can be regulated by law. They are conflicts that are produced within 4 complex network of interpersonal relations, which make it difficult to determine the most just and convenient solution for each case. Mediation is proposed as an alternative procedure for the resolution of family conflicts,
The judge must have sufficient criteria when making a decision about the convenience of proposing mediation for a given case and the moment at which this should been done. He/she must also consider that it is possible to incorporate mediation at each one of the phases of the legal process, from the initial temporary measures all the way through to the application of the sentence.
The article concludes with a critical analysis of the project for a family mediation law in Catalonia.

Efectos moduladores de la autoeficacia en el estrés laboral
Authors: Grau Gumbau Rosa , Salanova Soria Marisa , Peiró Silla José María
Published: September 2024

This paper analyses the self-efficacy as a moderator in the occupational stress process. Specifically it is analyzing the complementarily between two self-efficacy measures: the generalised and the specific at work. The initial hypothesis is that specific self-efficacy will moderate more stress-strain relationship than the generalised self-efficacy. Based on data collected from 140 workers, who use new technology in theirjobs, we have found that the self-efficacy moderates the relationship stress-strain in general, in the sense that low levels of self-efficacy are related to high levels of occupational stress. The results of hierarchical multiple regression analyses show that both general and professional self-efficacy are complementary as a moderators in the stress processes, depending on the specific strain studied. However, it is found that professional self-efficacy has more iteration effects. Concretely, it is found that the individuals with low levels of generalised self-efficacy express more emotional exhaustion when is higher his/her autonomy; while individuals with low levels of professional self-efficacy show greater cynicism when the routine and the role conflict are high and who have low levels of organizational commitment when the level of role conflict is high. The increase of stressors it is not associated with strain for workers with high levels of self-efficacy. Finally, limitations of the study and implications of these findings are discussed.

El cuerpo como límite. Una reflexión sobre los deficits orgánicos
Authors: SIGUÁN SOLER Miquel
Published: September 2024

Organic deficits affect our ability to act and relate to others, and often result in situations of dependency. In this paper, we examine the types and modalities of organic deficits (related to the sensory, neuromuscular, osteoarticular and other systems). Their psychological and social impact are commented (impact related to their visibility, and the pain and dependency the disorders produce). Ageing is also related to an increment in physical abilities. We conclude by examining the responsibility of Society towards these deficits. The responsibility of psychologists in the evaluation of the deficit and the provision of appropriate psychological support, as well as the role of Universities in the training of practitioners, are also analysed.
Otro lados de la mediación: el conflicto preexistente
Authors: Redorta Lorente Josep
Published: September 2024

The importance of the conflict on which mediation acts should not be ignored. The pattern and levels followed by the conflict are defined within a functional perspective. The effects of the conflict on the working group are revised. A summary table ofexplanatory theories is used to formulate a simpler model in which the mediator can efficientl y integrate his/her techniques and knowledge. A distinction between «conflict» and «problem», considered as two separate states which dictate the forms of intervention, is also suggested.
Sustainability Practices in Hyper Mart Operations
Authors: Kumar Sanjeev
Published: September 2024

Retail businesses, and hypermarkets in particular, are placing a greater focus on sustainability standards in response to the rising public awareness of social and environmental concerns. This summary summarizes the sustainability strategies used by hyper marts and how they have affected conservation efforts, social responsibility, and financial results. The massive size and complex supply networks of hyper marts cause them to have a major impact on the environment. Many supermarkets have responded to this by implementing sustainability measures including energy-efficient lighting, trash reduction programs, and ethical product sourcing. Reduced energy usage and operating expenses are two benefits of installing energy-efficient lighting and refrigeration systems. Reducing the use of single-use plastics, increasing recycling and composting, and generally decreasing trash production are the main goals of waste reduction initiatives. Using sustainable sourcing procedures guarantees that goods are sourced from companies that are ethical and mindful of the environment. Finding organic, fair trade, and minimally packaged goods is part of this. Hypermarkets are also reducing their dependence on non-renewable energy sources by powering their operations with renewable energy sources like solar panels. A further critical component of long-term viability in hypermarket operations is social responsibility. Promoting local products, engaging with the community, and ensuring fair labor standards are all part of this. In order to lessen their impact on the environment, hypermarkets frequently participate in community outreach programs that help local farmers and small companies. This boosts the local economy and helps keep supply chains short. Practicing sustainability also improves economic performance. Hyper marts may save a ton of money by reducing their energy use and trash. Better customer loyalty and standing out in the market are two more benefits that customers are reaping from companies who show they care about sustainability. To sum up, there are monetary, social, and environmental benefits to incorporating sustainability standards into hyper mart operations. Hyper marts may improve their operations in terms of sustainability and profitability by implementing energy-efficient technologies, sustainable sourcing, and socially responsible activities.

Biofortification of edible seedlings (sprouts) is a promising strategy to combat dietary nutrient deficiency. In the present study, we made an attempt to enrich broccoli seedlings through imbibition with Fe at two concentrations, 100 mg Fe · dm–3 and 500 mg Fe · dm–3, of four chemical forms: FeCl2, FeCl3, FeSO4, or Fe2(SO4)3. The imbibition in all of the solutions resulted in a significant increase in Fe content in the seedlings, wherein it was the highest by the imbibition in sulphates applied at the highest concentration (500 mg·dm-3). In addition, the imbibition in sulphates in general did not affect the germination rate, whereas the imbibition in chlorites hampered the germination process. The application of Fe at a concentration of 500 mg Fe · dm–3 in the form of FeSO4 enhanced antioxidant activity, while the application of Fe in the form of FeCl2 and FeCl3 stimulated the accumulation of anthocyanins. It can be concluded that seed imbibition in Fe in the form of FeSO4 is an easy and cheap method for biofortification of broccoli seedlings, leading to a nearly 10-fold increase in Fe content and significant enhancement of antioxidant activity, without affecting the germination rate.
On validating YOLOv8 as a bioinformatics tool capable of identifying tension rings in human irises
Authors: Romão Gustavo Henrique , Lara Hygor Santiago , Brito Jorge Nei
Published: September 2024

Iridology is an alternative diagnostic method that assesses overall health by examining the iris. Proponents claim that each organ in the body is linked to the iris via nerve connections, with dysfunctions manifesting as distinctive markings on the iris. While iridology has been relegated to pseudoscience in Western medicine, it has been of particular interest in Eastern health practices for over a millennia. With advancements in deep learning, there is renewed interest in iridology as a health assessment tool. Deep learning algorithms can analyze iris images objectively, potentially validating iridology's claims. This study explores using YOLOv8, a deep learning model, to detect tension rings in iris images as an indicator of anxiety. By training the model on a labeled dataset of iris images, we aim to develop a non-invasive, cost-effective tool for anxiety assessment. Results show that YOLOv8 can reliably detect tension rings, suggesting its potential as a diagnostic aid.

Pearl millet is largely cultivated in Brazil, but poorly known as food. From their grains, bran can be extracted which a great source of minerals, phitochemicals (bioactives) and dietraty fiber. This work investigated the effect of debraning time on starch content and paste properties. Millet grain debranning for 20 min showed the highest percentages of bran (15.5%) and dehulling (30.7%). Starch granules were found in all treatments, but the lowest content was found after 5 min debranning (7.23%). As expected, all brans obtained at varied debranning time did not show any peak viscosity  as the amount of starch did not account for the viscosity along with the insoluble fibers that are known for not increase viscosity under heat in excess of water.

A candidíase é a infecção fúngica mais comum em humanos, causada por fungos do gênero Candida, especialmente Candida albicans. O tratamento dessa doença oportunista inclui a administração de antifúngicos das classes dos azóis ou dos poliênicos. No entanto, o uso indiscriminado desses medicamentos tem gerado problemas, como a resistência de algumas cepas e o aumento da toxicidade com o reforço da dose. Diante disso, o uso de plantas medicinais se destaca como uma alternativa promissora para a descoberta de novos agentes fitofármacos que possam atuar em sinergia com o tratamento convencional. Assim, o objetivo desta pesquisa é analisar a atividade antifúngica do extrato de acetato de etila de Psidium guineense (Myrtaceae). Para este estudo, foram realizados ensaios in vitro utilizando como substância teste o extrato de acetato de etila de Psidium guineense contra cepas de Candida albicans e Candida tropicalis, as quais foram mantidas em Ágar Sabouraud Dextrose (ASD) e Caldo Sabouraud Dextrose (CSD). O controle positivo foi feito com nistatina, um antifúngico padrão. Utilizou-se a técnica de microdiluição em caldo para determinar a Concentração Inibitória Mínima (CIM) do extrato, e todos os testes foram realizados em duplicata. A leitura da CIM foi feita após 48 horas. Diante disso, obteve- se um valor de CIM superior a 1024 µg/mL, indicando que o extrato testado não apresentou atividade antifúngica contra as cepas analisadas. Portanto, é crucial realizar mais estudos para avaliar o potencial antifúngico de Psidium guineense em relação a outras cepas de fungos.
