Proteção de dados e uso da tecnologia no monitoramento do trabalhador: da experiência portuguesa às projeções no Brasil
Authors: Oliveira Neto Célio Pereira
Published: June 2023

Partindo da comprovação de que o Direito Português se encontra mais estruturado diante de uma cultura da proteção de dados pessoais, inclusive no campo das relações laborais, parte-se dessa vivência, mediante análise, por meio da pesquisa bibliográfica da doutrina, legislação e jurisprudência lusitana, diretivas e recomendações da União Europeia, além de acórdãos que marcaram importantes posições no âmbito do Tribunal Europeu de Direitos Humanos, propondo-se uma reflexão, por vezes comparativa, no que tange ao uso das tecnologias, parte das vezes ambivalentes — pois representam ao mesmo tempo instrumento de trabalho e controle — que permitem a vigilância à distância, geolocalização e monitoramento do correio eletrônico e seus impactos nos direitos à privacidade e intimidade, destacadamente no que se refere à tutela dos dados pessoais do trabalhador, analisando o momento atual da doutrina e da jurisprudência, a fim de traçar projeções e apresentar caminhos quanto ao uso dessas tecnologias à luz da Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados no Brasil no campo das relações de trabalho.
O impacto da inteligência artificial no atual regime da responsabilidade do produtor: um regime em revisão pelas instâncias europeias
Authors: Pinto Pereira Isa
Published: June 2023

O presente estudo tem o objetivo precípuo de analisar o Decreto-Lei n.o 383/89, de 06 de novembro, referente à responsabilidade objetiva do produtor decorrente da venda de produtos defeituosos, e que transpõe para a ordem jurídica interna a Diretiva n.o 85/374/CEE do Conselho, de 25 de julho de 1985, relativa à aproximação das disposições legislativas, regulamentares e administrativas dos Estados-Membros em matéria de responsabilidade decorrente dos produtos defeituosos. Por referência ao Decreto-Lei n.o 383/89, abordaremos os pontos essenciais do regime, começando pela análise dos conceitos de produtor (distinção entre produtor real e aparente), produto, defeito e dano, do regime da responsabilidade objetiva do produtor, da teoria da conditio sine qua non e da teoria da causalidade adequada (procurando evidenciar as insuficiências destas teorias tradicionais para efeitos da responsabilização do produtor) e as causas de exclusão da responsabilidade do produtor previstas no regime. Seguidamente serão analisadas as duas novas Propostas de Diretiva que relevam ao presente estudo. Em 28 de setembro de 2022, a Comissão Europeia divulgou duas propostas legislativas do pacote sobre responsabilidade civil. A Proposta de Diretiva sobre responsabilidade por produtos defeituosos (Revisão da diretiva sobre responsabilidade por produtos defeituosos) e a Proposta de Diretiva sobre a adaptação das regras de responsabilidade civil extracontratual à inteligência artificial (Diretiva sobre responsabilidade AI). Estas Propostas de Diretiva pretendem modernizar e reforçar, a nível europeu, a defesa dos consumidores, designadamente no que diz respeito à responsabilidade por danos causados por produtos novos, renovados e dotados de Inteligência Artificial. Concluímos que estas Propostas de Diretiva vêm reforçar e modernizar as regras de responsabilidade objetiva dos produtores conforme se demonstrará. Cremos, assim, que as Propostas de Diretiva de grau máximo de harmonização, a serem aprovadas, conferirão uma maior proteção jurídica dos consumidores em tempos de crescente desenvolvimento tecnológico.

Procede-se neste artigo a uma referência à importância da arbitragem potestativa no acesso ao direito por parte dos consumidores, seguindo-se uma análise dos respetivos regimes previstos na Lei dos Serviços Públicos Essenciais e na Lei de Defesa do Consumidor, primeiro isoladamente, destacando-se os principais aspetos dos respetivos regimes, e depois conjuntamente, salientando-se as principais diferenças e semelhanças entre eles, bem como alguns problemas de ordem processual que se colocam em torno de ambos os regimes.
Погребальный обряд как источник социальных реконструкций (по материалам кара-абызской культуры)
Authors: Проценко Антон Сергеевич
Published: June 2023

В статье представлены результаты суммарной характеристики погребального обряда кара-абызской культуры, на основе использования методов математической статистики. В основу работы легли материалы 700 погребений кара-абызской культуры, исследованных в течение XX в. В.В. Гольмстен, К.В. Сальниковым и А.Х. Пшеничнюком. Выделены частные признаки половозрастных групп (мужской, женской и детской). Выявлено, что для мужской выборки характерно наличие предметов вооружения, для женской – предметов костюмного комплекса. Для выяснения социальной структуры древнего населения погребения были распределены на пять категорий («очень богатые», «богатые», «рядовые», «бедные», «беднейшие») по количественно-качественному составу предметов. В результате исследования была реконструирована трехсословная структура.
Хозяйство носителей кара-абызской культуры по материалам работ археологических экспедиций Национального музея Республики Башкортостан на памятниках у горы Курман-Тау
Authors: Воробьева Светлана Леонидовна
Published: June 2023

В статье представлены результаты исследований 2012–2018 гг. на территории археологического микрорайона горы Курман-Тау в Гафурийском районе Республике Башкортостан. Автором были проведены археологические разведки и раскопки на восьми поселенческих объектах, в результате чего был выделен археологический микрорайон. Поселения функционировали с эпохи бронзы (абашевская и алакульская культуры) и до эпохи раннего железа (культура курмантау, кара-абызская культура, гафурийский тип). Материалы были проанализированы палео-почвоведами, остеологами, проведен спектральный анализ металла и споро-пыльцевые анализы. На основе этих данных установлена неоднородность хозяйства в разные периоды функционирования поселенческих памятников микрорайона горы Курман-Тау. В эпоху раннего железа происходит переход от более оседлого образа жизни в эпоху бронзы к полукочевому скотоводству. Но в эпоху поздней бронзы и раннего железа на данной территории одним из главных видов деятельности у носителей культуры курмантау и кара-абызской культуры были металлообработка и бронзолитейное производство. Об этом свидетельствуют находки шлаков, сплесков металла, литейной чаши, литейных форм и других изделий. Результаты работ автора указывают на преемственность в хозяйстве между носителями двух культур на территории Гафурийского района.

Authors: Selivanov Oleg , Pikalov Evgeny , Romanova Lyudmila , Trifonova Tatiana
Published: June 2023

Purpose: The study aims to determine the effect of the backwash time on the parameters of the mesh self-washing filter.
 
Theoretical framework: The duration of the backwash process can significantly affect the operation parameters of the mesh self-washing filter
 
Method: During the study, experiments were carried out using a laboratory stand on which a mesh self-cleaning filter was installed. In the experiments, the filter operation parameters were measured at different values of the backwash time. Mathematical modelling methods were also used to determine the filtration efficiency.
 
Results and conclusion: The results of the study showed that the backwash time significantly impacts the operation of the mesh self-washing filter. The optimal backwash time is from 20 to 30 seconds, while the percentage of filter clogging due to removing impurities during backwash is reduced by 20-25% compared to a shorter or longer backwash time.
 
Research implications: These filters work on the principle of direct filtration when water passes through a sieve to remove suspended solids. The filter material is periodically cleaned by backwashing, which involves changing the direction of water flow through a sieve to remove accumulated solid particles.
 
Originality/value: Water purification by suspended solids with a size of more than 100 microns is carried out by an amount of more than 99.5%. The filter provides reproducible cleaning quality, and the cleaning efficiency does not decrease from cycle to cycle.

Authors: Doskaliuk Bohdana , Zaiats Liubomyr , Gupta Latika
Published: June 2023

Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by fibrosis and vascular abnormalities. Despite extensive research, there is currently no effective treatment for SSc. This study aimed to investigate the effects of α-tocopherol acetate and vitamin D3 on the levels of surfactant protein D (SP-D), interleukin-13 (IL-13), and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) in a preclinical model of SSc.
The study included an intact group (IG) (15 animals) with no interventions, control group (CG) (20 animals) injected with isotonic solution, an experimental group #1 (EG#1) (25 animals) that were induced with SSc by injecting them subcutaneously with 0.5 ml of 5% (NaClO) three times a week for six consecutive weeks; and experimental group #2 (EG#2) (25 animals) with correction provided by injections of vitamin D (1000 IU / 100 g) and α-tocopherol acetate (10 mg / 100 g ) intramuscularly for 3 weeks.
The serum concentrations of IL-13, SP-D, and VCAM-1 were significantly higher in the EG#1 compared to the control group (109.35 (93,23-199.05) vs 8.50 (5.60-14.20), p=0.004; 490.20 (156.20-605.70) vs 78.10 (40.80-100.40), p=0.004; 91.25 (85.00 -264.98) vs 19.50 (13.53-22.20), p=0.004 respectively). The administration of vitamin D3 and α-tocopherol acetate was found to have a positive effect on all three parameters investigated. The SP-D level in the EG#2 was significantly lower than that in the EG#1 (490.20 (156.20-605.70) vs 123.75 (108.80-145.03), p=0.004). The concentration of IL-13 and VCAM-1 were also lower in the EG#2.

Background. The spread of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and overcoming its consequences, including immune-related disorders, is one of the critical issues requiring extensive study and resolution in practical medicine, particularly under present conditions in Ukraine.
Materials and methods. The study group consisted of 79 (27.5%) patients with verified PTSD: 46 (58.2%) female and 33 (41.8%) male, with an average age of 38.7±7.2 years; a control group of 20 apparently healthy people was used. The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) American National Center for PTSD (2013) questionnaire was used to verify PTSD. In addition, history taking, clinical examination, general and biochemical laboratory tests, and statistical analysis were performed.
Results. All patients with PTSD experienced clinical disorders and changes in laboratory indicators, with a probable increase in absolute and relative values of neutrophils and mononuclear cells, an increase in the levels of acute phase proteins, and activation of transaminases. In addition, these patients were characterized as immunocompromised patients with the potential to study immunological disorders.
Conclusions. The results of the review of the scientific literature and the clinical and paraclinical manifestations that we found in patients with PTSD indicate the role of immune mechanisms in the development of this syndrome and necessitate expanding diagnostic measures among such patients with the different pathogenetic approach of their management.
RISK FACTORS FOR UNFAVORABLE PROGNOSIS AND PROGRESSION OF CHRONIC HEART FAILURE IN COVID-19 PNEUMONIA
Authors: Samchuk Oleg
Published: June 2023

Introduction. Patients with chronic heart failure are vulnerable to coronavirus disease (COVID-19).

Objectives. To investigate risk factors for unfavorable prognosis and progression of heart failure in hospitalized patients with chronic heart failure and COVID-19 pneumonia.

Methods. A retrospective analysis of the medical records of 555 hospitalized patients diagnosed with COVID-19 was conducted. Subsequently, the data of 90 patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and COVID-19 pneumonia from January – February 2021 were collected at Lviv Clinical Hospital of Emergency Medical Care. The following indices were evaluated: anthropometric and demographic data, complications, treatment results, results of clinical, laboratory, and instrumental examinations, and dynamic NT-proBNP.

Results. CHF is recorded in 42.9% of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 and is accompanied by lower values of blood oxygen level (p=0.0474), hemoglobin (p=0.0090), prothrombin time (p=0.0196), prothrombin index (p=0.0196) and higher indicators of glucose (p=0.0032), creatinine (p=0.00001), interleukin-6 (p=0.0041). CHF decompensation is associated with lower values of body temperature (p=0.0047) and blood oxygen saturation (p=0.0076), while hemoglobin level (p=0.0026), higher creatinine values (p=0.0034), interleukin-6 (p=0.0300), aspartate aminotransferase (p=0.0035), troponin I (p=0.0061); are associated with the development of myocardial infarction (p=0.0014), acute arrhythmias (p=0.0011), hypertensive crisis (p=0.0096) and increased mortality (OR=5.72; 95). % CI: 1.84, 17.81; p=0.0026).

Conclusions. CHF is common and often fatal in patients with COVID-19, especially in decompensated CHF. Low blood oxygen saturation, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, hypertensive crisis, increased cardio cytolysis markers and pro-inflammatory cytokines preceding adverse cardiovascular risk factors contribute to CHF decompensation in patients with COVID-19.

The paper provides a review of publications devoted to the study of the hydrodynamic effect of «shark skin» and its possible applications in technical systems, in particular in vane pumps. The hydrodynamic effect of «sharkskin» occurs due to roughness (riblets) oriented along the flow and allows to reduce the amount of hydraulic resistance in the near-wall region. An analysis of studies on the morphology and replication of shark skin, as well as some options for applying this effect in technical systems, is carried out. Examples of a number of the most interesting, according to the authors, works that are in the public domain are given. Some features of the presented studies are noted. A conclusion is made about the current state of biomimetic technologies in hydraulic engineering and about the development trends in this area.

Background:

Gliomas represent almost 30% of all primary brain tumors and account for 80% of malignant primary ones. In the last two decades, significant progress has been made in understanding gliomas’ molecular origin and development. These advancements have demonstrated a remarkable improvement in classification systems based on mutational markers, which contribute paramount information in addition to traditional histology-based classification.

Methods:

We performed a narrative review of the literature including each molecular marker described for adult diffuse gliomas used in the World Health Organization (WHO) central nervous system 5.

Results:

The 2021 WHO classification of diffuse gliomas encompasses many molecular aspects considered in the latest proposed hallmarks of cancer. The outcome of patients with diffuse gliomas relies on their molecular behavior and consequently, to determine clinical outcomes for these patients, molecular profiling should be mandatory. At least, the following molecular markers are necessary for the current most accurate classification of these tumors: (1) isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) IDH-1 mutation, (2) 1p/19q codeletion, (3) cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A/B deletion, (4) telomerase reverse transcriptase promoter mutation, (5) α-thalassemia/ mental retardation syndrome X-linked loss, (6) epidermal growth factor receptor amplification, and (7) tumor protein P53 mutation. These molecular markers have allowed the differentiation of multiple variations of the same disease, including the differentiation of distinct molecular Grade 4 gliomas. This could imply different clinical outcomes and possibly impact targeted therapies in the years to come.

Conclusion:

Physicians face different challenging scenarios according to the clinical features of patients with gliomas. In addition to the current advances in clinical decision-making, including radiological and surgical techniques, understanding the disease’s molecular pathogenesis is paramount to improving the benefits of its clinical treatments. This review aims to describe straightforwardly the most remarkable aspects of the molecular pathogenesis of diffuse gliomas.
Cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea with meningoencephalocele related to Sternberg’s canal: A report of two cases

Background:

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea with meningoencephalocele (MEC) associated with Sternberg’s canal is rare. We treated two such cases.

Case Description:

A 41-year-old man and a 35-year-old woman presented with CSF rhinorrhea and mild headache worsening with standing posture. Head computed tomography showed a defect close to the foramen rotundum in the lateral wall of the left sphenoid sinus in both cases. Head magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and MR cisternography revealed that brain parenchyma had herniated into the lateral sphenoid sinus through the defect of the middle cranial fossa. The intradural and extradural spaces and bone defect were sealed with fascia and fat through both intradural and extradural approaches. The MEC was cut away to prevent infection. CSF rhinorrhea completely stopped after the surgery.

Conclusion:

Our cases were characterized by empty sella, thinning of the dorsum sellae, and large arteriovenous malformations that suggest chronic intracranial hypertension. The possibility of Sternberg’s canal in patients with CSF rhinorrhea with chronic intracranial hypertension should be considered. The cranial approach has the advantages of lower infection risk and the ability to close the defect with multilayer plasty under direct vision. The transcranial approach is still safe if performed by a skillful neurosurgeon.
