What is a predatory journal? A scoping review
Authors: Cobey Kelly D. , Lalu Manoj M , Skidmore Becky , Ahmadzai Nadera , Grudniewicz Agnes , Moher David
Published: July 2018

Background: There is no standardized definition of what a predatory journal is, nor have the characteristics of these journals been delineated or agreed upon. In order to study the phenomenon precisely a definition of predatory journals is needed. The objective of this scoping review is to summarize the literature on predatory journals, describe its epidemiological characteristics, and to extract empirical descriptions of potential characteristics of predatory journals.

Methods: We searched five bibliographic databases: Ovid MEDLINE, Embase Classic + Embase, ERIC, and PsycINFO, and Web of Science on January 2nd, 2018. A related grey literature search was conducted March 27th, 2018. Eligible studies were those published in English after 2012 that discuss predatory journals. Titles and abstracts of records obtained were screened. We extracted epidemiological characteristics from all search records discussing predatory journals. Subsequently, we extracted statements from the empirical studies describing empirically derived characteristics of predatory journals. These characteristics were then categorized and thematically grouped.  

Results: 920 records were obtained from the search. 344 of these records met our inclusion criteria. The majority of these records took the form of commentaries, viewpoints, letters, or editorials (78.44%), and just 38 records were empirical studies that reported empirically derived characteristics of predatory journals. We extracted 109 unique characteristics from these 38 studies, which we subsequently thematically grouped into six categories: journal operations, article, editorial and peer review, communication, article processing charges, and dissemination, indexing and archiving, and five descriptors.   

Conclusions: This work identified a corpus of potential characteristics of predatory journals. Limitations of the work include our restriction to English language articles, and the fact that the methodological quality of articles included in our extraction was not assessed. These results will be provided to attendees at a stakeholder meeting seeking to develop a standardized definition for what constitutes a predatory journal.

Cel pracy

Zawody pomocowe takie jak strażacy, policjanci wiążą się z narażeniem na ciężki stres, który może spowodować pogorszenie funkcjonowania i rozwój takich zespołów chorobowych, jak zespół stresu pourazowego PTSD. Celem pracy była ocena sposobu radzenia sobie ze stresem przez strażaków narażonych na ciężki stres, ocena występowania zespołu PTSD w badanej grupie strażaków, oraz korelacji ze sposobami radzenia sobie ze stresem.

Metoda

Badania przeprowadzono w grupie 147 polskich strażaków.. Do oceny sposobów radzenia sobie ze stresem zastosowano Kwestionariusz Radzenia Sobie w Sytuacjach Stresowych. Drugim zastosowanym narzędziem badawczym był Kwestionariusz do Pomiaru Zaburzenia po Stresie Traumatycznym (K-PTSD) w polskiej wersji językowej.

Wyniki

Wykazano, że strażacy najczęściej podejmują próby aktywnego radzenia sobie z napięciem stresowym. Natomiast najmniej chętnie stosują metody polegające na koncentrowaniu się na sobie i negatywnych przeżyciach emocjonalnych.

Wnioski

Blisko jedna trzecia badanych strażaków cierpiała z powodu objawów syndromu stresu pourazowego, a najczęściej stwierdzaną wśród nich strategią radzenia sobie ze stresem był styl skoncentrowany na unikaniu. Jednocześnie wiek okazał się być czynnikiem związanym z gotowością do podejmowania zachowań zaradczych wobec napięcia stresowego; starsi strażacy łatwiej podejmują zachowania zaradcze.
Inflammatory theory of depression
Authors: Gałecki Piotr , Talarowska Monika
Published: July 2018

Choroby mózgu są jednymi z najbardziej obciążających Europę społecznie i ekonomicznie. Spośród chorób mózgu, ponad 60 % kosztów społecznych i ekonomicznych generują zaburzenia psychiczne, głównie zaburzenia depresyjne i zaburzenia lękowe. Nawracające zaburzenia depresyjne stanowią istotny problem cywilizacyjny ostatnich lat. Wśród biologicznych oraz psychologicznych teorii wyjaśniających przyczyny depresji coraz większego znaczenia nabiera hipoteza opisująca aktywny proces zapalny toczący się w organizmie chorych. Wśród markerów procesu zapalnego wymienia się: enzymy zapalenia (m.in. manganowa dysmutaza ponadtlenkowa ( MnSOD ), mieloperoksydaza ( MPO ), indukowalna syntaza tlenku azotu), cytokiny pro - zapalne i przeciwzapalne oraz zjawisko stresu oksydacyjnego. Czynniki te poprzez szlak kynureninowy prowadzą do deficytu serotoniny i melatoniny, co uznawane jest za jedną z głównych przyczyn ujawnienia się depresji. Możemy zatem popatrzeć na depresję, jako na chroniczne przeziębienie organizmu, pojawiające się w odpowiedzi na dotykające nas mniejsze lub większe stresory dnia codziennego. Celem prezentowanej pracy jest przybliżenie wyników najnowszych badań dotyczących tego zagadnienia.
Coping with stress and the sense of quality of life in inmates of correctional facilities
Authors: Skowroński Bartlomiej , Talik Elżbieta
Published: July 2018

Cel pracy

Celem pracy było zbadanie różnic między grupami osadzonych, wyodrębnionymi na podstawie kryterium jakości życia, pod względem sposobów radzenia sobie ze stresem.

Metoda

W celu weryfikacji hipotez badawczych zostały zastosowane następujące narzędzia badawcze: (1) Kwestionariusz Poczucia Jakości Życia autorstwa M. Straś Romanowskiej (2007) oraz (2) Kwestionariusz COPE autorstwa Carver, Scheier i Weintraub (1989).

Wyniki

Wyniki przedstawionych badań potwierdziły, że sposoby radzenia sobie ze stresem stosowane przez osoby osadzone są powiązane z jakością życia. Wniosek ten dotyczy zarówno wyniku ogólnego poczucia jakości życia, ale także wszystkich jego wymiarów: psychofizycznego, psychospołecznego, podmiotowego oraz metafizycznego. Zgodnie z zakładaną hipotezą osoby cechujące się wysokim poziomem ogólnej jakości życia, istotnie częściej niż osoby z niskim poziomem, preferują aktywne strategie radzenia sobie ze stresem, wśród których znalazły się takie strategie, jak: Aktywne radzenie sobie, Planowanie, Poszukiwanie wsparcia instrumentalnego, Poszukiwanie wsparcia emocjonalnego, Pozytywne przewartościowanie i rozwój. Podobny wniosek z niewielkimi modyfikacjami dotyczy również innych wymiarów jakości życia.

Wnioski

Stosowanie zatem konstruktywnych sposobów radzenia sobie ze stresem, opartych na poszukiwaniu wsparcia, aktywności własnej w radzeniu sobie z problemami, wyciąganiu wniosków z błędnych wyborów życiowych wiąże się z wyższym poziomem jakości życia.
Dopaminergic system activity under stress condition – seeking individual differences, preclinical studies
Authors: Gryz Marek , Lehner Małgorzata , Wisłowska-Stanek Aleksandra , Płaźnik Adam
Published: July 2018

Funkcjonowanie systemu dopaminergicznego w strukturach limbicznych (układ nagrody) związane jest z procesami motywacyjnymi oraz adaptacyjnymi do zmieniających się warunków środowiska. Warunki stresowe mogą powodować dysfunkcję układu dopaminergicznego, obniżać procesy motywacyjne i powodować kompensacyjne przyjmowanie substancji psychoaktywnych. Podatność na działanie czynników stresowych jest zmienna osobniczo. Substancje psychoaktywne, takie jak kokaina, amfetamina i jej pochodne, działają jako środki wzmacniające pozytywnie, wywołując zmiany nastroju. Ich długotrwałe stosowanie może powodować przetrwałe zmiany plastyczne (np. zaburzenie neurogenezy jak i atrofię neuronów) w układzie limbicznym, prowadząc w efekcie do uzależnień lub innych form psychopatologii np. zaburzeń nastroju. Przyczyną jest rozregulowanie układu dopaminergicznego i zaburzenie lokalnego uwalniania dopaminy w jądrze półleżącym. Podobne zmiany mogą być skutkiem działania czynników stresowych. Badania wskazują, że leki przeciwdepresyjne, mogą zwiększać ekspresję neurotrofowego czynnika pochodzenia mózgowego (BDNF), receptorów TrkB i proliferację neuronów w mózgu, przywracając prawidłowe funkcjonowanie obszarów limbicznych. Istotnym przejawem odmiennego funkcjonowania dopaminergicznego układu mezolimbicznego są różnice między płciami i proces starzenia.
Badania epidemiologiczne wskazują na wzrost częstości współwystępowania zaburzeń nastroju, zaburzeń lękowych i uzależnienia od substancji psychoaktywnych. Poszukiwanie neurobiologicznych podstaw zaburzeń afektywnych oraz identyfikacja czynników, w tym epigenetycznych (współzależność czynników genetycznych i środowiskowych), związanych z różną podatnością na stres i predyspozycją do uzależnienia od substancji psychoaktywnych stanowi aktualny problem badawczy. Poznanie neurobiologicznego podłoża różnic indywidualnych związanych z podatnością na działanie środków psychostymulujących może w przyszłości pozwolić na wprowadzenie terapii dostosowanych do potrzeb pacjenta i skuteczniejsze leczenie uzależnienia.
The role of the district nurse in Northern Ireland
Authors: Young Charlene , Thompson Hilary
Published: July 2018

A district nurse is an expert generalist practitioner who uses advanced clinical skills and knowledge to fulfil an ever-evolving role. The district nurse is accountable for the care planning, coordination and management of people with multi-faceted and intricate health care needs. In addition, an interprofessional approach to health and social care is required to enable the district nurse to co-ordinate care and enable patients to be cared for and remain within their homes. As the demand on primary and community services increases, care is further enriched by working in partnership with families, carers and voluntary service providers. The nurse patient relationship is the founding component for person-centred, holistic care. Through holistic assessment and shared decision making, co-produced care planning permits people to fundamentally take ownership of their health and enhances formal care provision. This case study reflects the role of the district nurse in Northern Ireland, through comprehensive assessment in clinical practice and highlights how a therapeutic relationship, being centred on the patient and shared decision-making impact positively on the care process.
Compression therapy and exercise: enhancing outcomes
Authors: Rooney Louise , Cooper-Stanton Garry , Cave-Senior Jayne
Published: July 2018

Compression therapy is the main method used within the treatment and management of lymphoedema and chronic oedema. The increasing prevalence of the condition, which has multiple causes, such as genetic factors, age and external factors, require the effective management of the condition, and to enhance the management methods used to contain the condition. The use of exercise alongside the mainstay method of treatment (compression therapy) has been an underutilised area. The application of a structured exercise programme in conjunction with multi-layer lymphoedema bandaging combined with an adjustable velcro wrap based systems led to a decrease in limb volume in one case study. The results of the programme indicate that the approach is beneficial and requires embedding further within Walsall lymphoedema service, due to improved patient outcomes, and cost effectiveness in terms of resources.
The role of the district nurse in caring for patients with dementia
Authors: Dixon Laura , Thompson Hilary
Published: July 2018

District nurses require a vast array of skills to enable effective care delivery for patients living with a diagnosis of dementia in the community setting. Complex care needs provide challenges for the provision and delivery of district nursing services, which must be overcome to provide patientcentred care. Demographic and financial constraints hamper service delivery and the availability of services; however, district nurses are required to use their problem solving skills and tacit knowledge to deal with these challenges. The Northern Ireland Single Assessment Tool (NISAT) uses a person-centred framework to provide a holistic approach to care. The case study reflects a holistic and person centred approach to care for a person with dementia by a district nursing student.
Granuloma formation associated with the ventral submandibular scent glands of rabbits: a case series
Authors: Saunders Richard , Fews Debra , Elliott Sarah
Published: July 2018

Two entire male rabbits were presented with soft tissue thickening of areas on the ventral submandibular border of their chins. Subsequent imaging and further examination, including surgical investigation, ruled out bone or dental involvement, and surgical excision with concurrent castration was curative. Histopathology revealed granuloma formation, apocrine gland hyperplasia, and perivascular dermatitis, with, in one case, perihidradenitis and evidence of coagulative necrosis of apocrine glands with presumed secondary bacterial colonisation. No further lesions were noted at follow-up 24 months later in either case.

Authors: Shon Myung-Soo , Moon Hae Hee , Han Chang-Hoon , Choi Hyuk-Joon , Han Bok Kyung
Published: July 2018

This study was conducted to evaluate the hangover relieving effect of algae and plant complex extract. The complex extract showed 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging effect in a concentration-dependent manner and high antioxidant capacity (59.48%) when administered at 120 μg/mL. In addition, alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activities were increased according to the concentration of the complex extract. A locomotor activity test with an alcohol-complex extract mouse group showed improved motor activities over that of the alcohol-water group at 120 min post-administration. Blood was harvested from each mouse at 120 min post-administration then concentrations of alcohol and aldehyde were measured. The alcohol-extract treated group showed significantly lower (p<0.0001) alcohol (33.48 ± 0.59 μg/mL) and aldehyde (1.54 ± 0.13 μg/mL) concentrations than the alcohol-water treated group. These results suggest that the hangover relieving effects of complex extract results in increased motor activity of mice, which reduces the alcohol and aldehyde concentration in the blood.

Published: July 2018

This study was carried out to determine the effect of biji addition on the quality of extruded isolated soy protein (ISP). ISP-based biji addition (0, 20, 40 and 60%) was extruded at die temperatures 140°C and 150°C and a screw speed of 250 rpm. The moisture contents were adjusted to 35% and 45%. As the content of biji increased from 0% to 60%, springiness, cohesiveness, and cutting strength of the extruded ISP were significantly decreased. When the die temperature increased from 140°C to 150°C and the water content increased from 35% to 45%, the nitrogen solubility index, cutting strength and integrity index decreased. When the biji addition was increased at a barrel temperature of 140°C and a moisture content of 45%, the integrity index of the ISP texture decreased. With an increase in the addition of biji to ISP, rough surface and irregular fiber structure were observed, but regular microfiber structure was not observed.

Authors: Yoo Dongsun , Jung Kyung Hee , Choi Seung Jun
Published: July 2018

This study attempted to establish an ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) analysis method for standard determination of silymarin as a health functional food material in Silybum marianum extraxt (milk thistle). UPLC was performed on a Waters Acquity BEH C18 (50×2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) column using a gradient elution of distilled water and methanol at a flow rate of 0.21 mL/min and detection wavelength of 288 nm. The UPLC method showed high linearity in the calibration curve at a coefficient of determination (r2) of >0.9999, and limit of detection and quantitation for 6 flavonolignans were 0.0167-0.2469 and 0.1648-1.2931 μg/mL, respectively. The recovery of each flavnolignan was in the range of 99.96-100.81%, and the relative standard deviation for precision of each flavonolignan was less than 1.0%. The UPLC method established in this study was more specific for the quantitative determination of silymarin than the HPLC method. Also, since the UPLC method is shorter in the equipment operation time and smaller in the amount of used solvent than the HPLC method, UPLC is expected to have higher energy efficiency and lower environmental impact compared with HPLC.

Authors: Lee Gyeong Mi , Kim Jin Won , Shin Jung-Kue
Published: July 2018

Quality changes in yakgwa (such as color, moisture contents, acid value, rheological properties, and viable cells) using different types of frying oils was examined for 5 weeks. During the storage period, the lightness and yellowness of all samples were increased and there was no significant difference in redness. After 5 weeks of storage, rice bran oil showed the least color difference. There was no difference in the moisture contents of all samples except for grape seed oil, while the moisture contents of yakgwa fried with grape seed oil was decreased. The acid value increased as the storage period increased regardless of the type of frying oil, and yakgwa fried with rice bran oil and grape seed oil showed a low acid value. The hardness was increased as the storage period increased, but there was no difference in the hardness between the samples. The adhesiveness and resilience were decreased and the chewiness was increased. The total cell count did not increase significantly as the storage period, and there was also no difference in the total cell count between the samples. There was a high level of yeast and mold in comparison to total cell count, and the colony of bacteria was not detected.

Published: July 2018

The objectives of this study were to characterize the physicochemical properties of ginger (Zingiber officinale Rosc.) and the optimum extract processing condition to increase the solubilization efficiency of 6-gingerol and polysaccharides disintegration. The physicochemical properties were investigated under high-pressure enzyme (HP) and enzyme (WB) treatment conditions such as reaction time (1, 2, 3 h), pressure (50, 70, 100 MPa) and sample types, and cell wall degradation enzyme (hemicellulase, cellulase, pectinase, glucosidase, etc.) The effect of high-pressure enzyme treatment depending on sample types was significantly highest in the freeze-dried ginger powder. The optimum condition for high-pressure enzyme treatment was with Pectinex Ultra SP-L (Pec) enzymes for 2 h at 50°C and 100 MPa. Water soluble indexes increased 4.6 and 3.8 times more compared to CON (15.35%) while total polyphenol contents increased by 1.8 and 1.7 times compared to CON (1.43%). The total contents of indicator components such as 6, 8, 10-gingerol and shogaol was 1.53%, increasing 2.7 times more compared to CON (0.57%) with a significant difference (p<0.001). The high-pressure and enzymatic approach described in this study would be beneficial to food industries for developing ginger functional product and materials.

Published: July 2018

On-street parking leads to reduced road capacity and decreased traffic performance of the certain road. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of on-street parking based on road performance. The study was conducted at Central Business District namely Peunayong, Banda Aceh. Based on the Indonesian Highway Capacity Manual (IHCM) one of the performance parameter values is Degree of Saturation (DS). The data needed for calculation of DS are the geometric conditions, traffic volume and the side frictions. The results indicate that on-street parking facilities on segment 2 of Khairil Anwar Street should be evaluated, as the DS value is greater than 0.75 (unstable road condition), by changing parking patterns into a parallel configuration or eliminating parking facilities. Furthermore, the parking configuration of R.A. Kartini Street also needs to be rearranged. Despite the stable road performance, this road is uncomfortable to pass because there is only one lane remained due to unfeasible parking patterns and existence of street market along the segment. The road performance of Khairil Anwar Street (segment 1), Ahmad Yani Street, W.R Supratman Street, T.P. Polem Street, Twk. Daudsyah Street and Ratu Safiatuddin Street is in stable condition, with DS 0.75. This indicating that on-street parking facilities can be maintained. While as for the W.R. Supratman and Ahmad Yani Street should be evaluated in year of 2019 to avoid traffic jam along this corridors.

Authors: Moon Mark Chun , Hills Rebecca , Demiris George
Published: July 2018

Background

Little is known about optimisation of electronic health records (EHRs) systems in the hospital setting while adoption of EHR systems continues in the United States.

Objective

To understand optimisation processes of EHR systems undertaken in leading healthcare organisations in the United States.

Methods

Informed by a grounded theory approach, a qualitative study was undertaken that involved 11 in-depth interviews and a focus group with the EHR experts from the high performing healthcare organisations across the United States.

Results

The study describes EHR optimisation processes characterised by prioritising exponentially increasing requests with predominant focus on improving efficiency of EHR, building optimisation teams or advisory groups and standardisation. The study discusses 16 types of optimisation that interdependently produced 16 results along with identifying 11 barriers and 20 facilitators to optimisation.

Conclusions

The study describes overall experiences of optimising EHRs in select high performing healthcare organisations in the US. The findings highlight the importance of optimising the EHR after, and even before, go-live and dedicating resources exclusively for optimisation.

A Educação Ambiental (EA) em voga é tema transversal para perpassar a Educação Básica (EB) como meio para enfrentar a crise ambiental que decorre principalmente dos modos de produção acelerado. O que nos motivou a investigar quatro (04) coleções de Livros Didáticos (LDs) de Química, cada qual com três (03) LDs (1º, 2º e 3º ano) do Ensino Médio (EM) advindos do Programa Nacional do Livro Didático (PNLD 2015) quanto a possível articulação com a EA. A partir desta pesquisa observamos que os LDs de Química abrangem sensivelmente a complexidade requerida na constituição da EA de forma crítica. Para tanto, sugerimos indícios de relações que podem ser relacionadas com a EA e educação alimentar, ambas intrinsecamente conectadas com a qualidade de vida, pensando na significação dos conceitos químicos de cada um dos LDs com atenção para a EA de forma crítica, visto a função social que precisa efetivar na vida dos sujeitos escolares.

Environmental Education (EA) in vogue is a cross-cutting theme to pass on Basic Education (EB) as a mean to deal with the environmental crisis that occurs mainly from the accelerated production modes. This motivated us to investigate four (04) collections of Didactic Books (DBs) of Chemistry, each with three (03) DBs (1st, 2nd and 3rd year) of the Secondary School (SC) coming from the Brazilian program called National Program of Didactic Book PNLD 2015) and the possible articulation with the EA. From this research we observed that the DBs of Chemistry cover the complexity required in the constitution of the AE in a critical way. To that end, we suggest indications of relationships that may be related to AE and food education, both intrinsically connected with quality of life, considering the significance of the chemical concepts of each of the DBs with attention to the AE in a critical way, since the function Social interaction that must be effective in the life of school subjects.

O Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (ENEM) tem passado por várias reformulações nos últimos anos e, apesar disso, pode criar obstáculos que comprometem a autonomia docente, a abordagem de temas locais e o ensino. O objetivo do presente estudo é discutir as implicações curriculares do ENEM para o Ensino das Ciências Ambientais em escala local. Foram coletados dados bibliográficos e documentais, sendo analisadas as provas de Ciências Humanas e da Natureza do exame em questão, que comprovaram a pouca abordagem dos temas ambientais. Assim, observa-se que o ENEM raramente aborda questões locais em sua proposta, devendo a escola utilizar de outros instrumentos pedagógicos para melhor efetivação do ensino das Ciências Ambientais, na perspectiva de tentar aproximar os conteúdos estudados à realidade do aluno, unindo assim, teoria e prática.

The National High School Examination (ENEM) has undergone several reformulations in recent years and, despite this, may create obstacles that compromise teacher autonomy, approach to local issues and teaching. The objective of the present study is to discuss the curricular implications of ENEM for the Environmental Science Teaching in local scale. Bibliographical and documentary data were collected and the Human and Natural Sciences tests of the exam in question were analyzed, that proved the small approach of the environmental themes. Thus, it is observed the ENEM little addresses local issues in its proposal. The school should use others pedagogical tools to better implement the teaching of Environmental Sciences, in the perspective of trying to approximate the studied contents to the student’s reality, thus uniting theory and practice.

As Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (TIC’s) estão disseminadas por toda parte. Nas escolas não é diferente; seja através dos smartphones, ou por laptops e tablets , são equipamentos que atraem os estudantes no ambiente escolar devido à interação que eles promovem ao usuário. Se tratando de temáticas e disciplinas que abordam conceitos relacionados ao meio ambiente, as TIC’s atuam de forma inclusiva e interativa no aprendizado do aluno, por fornecer, entre outros, informações atualizadas sobre os acontecimentos referentes à questões ambientais. O objetivo principal deste trabalho é contribuir para o despertamento do aluno para questões relacionadas ao meio ambiente presentes no meio em que ele vive, integrando a didática da sala de aula às tecnologias que estão em destaque na área e que abordam os temas pertinentes à sustentabilidade.

Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) are widespread everywhere. In schools it is no different; whether through smartphones or laptops and tablets, are devices that attract students into the school environment because of the interaction they bring to the user. When it comes to themes and disciplines that approach concepts related to the environment, ICTs act in an inclusive and interactive way in student learning, by providing, among other things, up-to-date information on environmental events. The main objective of this work is to contribute to the student's awakening to issues related to the environment present in the environment in which he lives, integrating the didactics of the classroom to the technologies that are prominent in the area and that address the themes pertinent to sustainability.

Sabe-se da importância do avanço tecnológico para o desenvolvimento de uma saúde cada vez mais eficaz e segura e, por isso, uma das grandes preocupações que se tem com o uso dos nanomateriais na medicina é a segurança para o paciente e para o meio ambiente. Há, portanto, uma necessidade eminente de avaliação e regulamentação da nanomedicina, tendo sempre como base a ética para que o melhor seja feito para a sociedade. Sendo assim, o objetivo do presente trabalho foi conhecer as produções científicas que abordem a nanomedicina e suas implicações bioéticas. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura em que a coleta de dados foi realizada no Portal PubMed (Public/PublishMedline), utilizando os descritores bioethics AND (nanotechnology OR nanomedicine), sem delimitação do tempo, em que foram selecionados de 18 artigos. Foram construídas duas categorias: “Os impactos da nanotecnologia na saúde” e “As questões bioéticas envolvidas na nanotecnologia”. E concluiu-se que a nanomedicina traz à tona muitas questões de natureza ética, quanto ao seu uso, suas aplicações e até mesmo consequências para a sociedade e o meio ambiente. Ainda se fazem necessárias maiores pesquisas e compreensão do assunto, para que a nanotecnologia avance em todas as áreas do conhecimento, auxiliando as presentes e as futuras gerações.
