In the process of evolution, the multicameral stomach acquires a unique morphological structure, which is predetermined by the influence of various natural and environmental factors. The pre-ventricle, which consists of three chambers, serves as a reservoir for storing and preparing the resulting food coma from plant food. The aim of the study is to determine the dynamics of the increase in the absolute mass of the chambers of the multicameral stomach in sheep of the Edilbaevsky breed at different age periods of growth and development. The material for the study was corpses and organ complexes obtained from sheep of the Edilbaevsky breed from the farm “Slaughter point” IP Yusubov O.M. of the Leningrad region in the amount of 13 pieces. The age of the animals from which the biomaterial was obtained varied and ranged from 10 days to 14 months. During the study, a complex of modern measures was applied, including various research methods: fine anatomical dissection; morphometry; the absolute mass of the multicameral stomach was determined on an electronic scale “MS-K07” with an accuracy of 0.10 g. It was found that by 5-6 months of age, the absolute mass of the book increases most actively, this is due to a change in diet and the transition from the dairy period to feeding with coarse feeds. From 5-6 months of age to 12-14 months, the highest rate of increase in absolute mass is developed in the mesh, this is due to an increase in the functional load on this camera. During the same period, the absolute mass of the scar, the book and the abomasum increases relatively evenly. Over the entire period of studies of multicameral stomachs in different age groups of sheep of the Edilbaev breed, we note that the absolute mass of the abomasum increases evenly, this is due to the initial functional activity of this chamber from birth. At the same time, the greatest increase in absolute mass over the entire period of research is noted in the book.

Published: May 2023

En el Proceso Civil vigente en Bolivia la mayoría de los actos procesales son de manera escrita y solo algunos actos procesales son de forma oral, lo cual genera tardanza y lentitud en cuanto a la resolución de los casos que llegan a conocimiento de los juzgados. Por esta razón, en la actualidad es imperiosa la necesidad de realizar el estudio a detalle de la implementación de un Proceso Civil por audiencias, y determinar si Bolivia se encuentra preparada para afrontar un cambio significativo puesto que se debe tomar varios parámetros a considerarse como la estructura física para hacer posible las audiencias y en su  caso establecer las acciones correspondientes para preparar al recurso humano. A partir de este estudio, se tendrá una mayor comprensión de los efectos, beneficios y requisitos para implementar de forma adecuada el proceso civil oral o por audiencia, además de que se contará con una investigación que servirá para entender los cambios procesales a seguirse con la introducción de la oralidad en los estrados judiciales civiles de Bolivia.
Casting a Wide Multidisciplinary Net: Two-Year Colleges as Human Services Contributors in Their Communities
Authors: Schwitzer Alan M. , Huber Pat , Schmoyer Nic
Published: May 2023

The need among human services professionals for interdisciplinary approaches to meeting population needs, especially in the current COVID-19 and Black Lives Matters (BLM) contexts, is unprecedented. This conceptual article reviews the current research and practice literature in order to discuss two-year colleges as often-overlooked partners in meeting community needs. We present the argument that American two-year colleges, by design, can be human services partners when addressing the inequities, economic and other deficiencies, and marginalization based on racial and ethnic discrimination or similar dynamics found in our communities. Specifically, we demonstrate the relationships between human services, on one hand, and the work of community colleges in their roles as economic engines intended to generate socio-economic security, as academic success centers intended to mitigate obstacles to learning outcomes, as mechanisms for social justice intended to produce life improvements among marginalized populations, and as mental health and wellness supports intended to reduce barriers to achievement. We rely on our own experiences in the Virginia Community College System (VCCS) as illustrations, and we use the work of one sample institution to provide a start-to-finish example of the overlap between human services goals and community colleges.

Published: May 2023

Current treatment of complicated calculous biliary disease typically involves a two-step procedure consisting of pre- or post-operative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). This practice creates drawbacks as there is the need for two anesthesia inductions and longer hospital stay. The combination of LC and ERCP (LC + ERCP) for patients with cholecysto-choledocholithiasis has shown safety advantages, reducing anesthesia inductions and bringing high efficiency. This is a retrospective case series implemented at the Department of General Surgery - Hanoi Medical University Hospital between March 2020 and July 2022. In total, 44 patients met the criteria of this study. The average age of the cohort was 55.43 ± 18.12 years. The mean operating times of ERCP and LC were 58.05 ± 20.10 min and 54.09 ± 23.80 min, respectively. There was one intra-operative adverse event and no conversion. The mean hospital stay was 3.95 ± 2.28 days, and the rate of stones clearance was 100 per cent. LC combine ERCP in a single setting is a safe, effective procedure in treating cholecysto-choledocholithiasis.

This cross-sectional study aimed to identify the prevalence and factors related to the activities of daily living (ADLs) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs) among elderly people in Ha Noi, Ninh Binh, and Quang Binh in 2018. In total, 2448 participants were interviewed and measured using an adapted short version of Katz ADL Index and Lawton IADL Scale. The study showed a high prevalence of ADL and IADL disability (29.1% and 33.1%, respectively) in older adults. The risks of ADL and IADL limitations increased with age, gender ( higher in females), individuals withlower incomes, who had a history of chronic diseases, who self-rated poor health status, reported a moderate or severe somatic pain and who had weak grip strength. People who were still employed and regularly performed heavy physical activities had a lower chance of ADL and/or IADL limitations. We suggest that ADL/IADL limitations should be taken in account for any potential health care strategies and interventions for elderly population.

Background: Medicinal plants such as Acalypha plant has been employed in traditional medicine for the treatment of fungal skin infections affecting children in Nigeria. Objective: In this study, the phytochemical constituent of acetone, ethanol, methanol and aqueous leaf extracts of Acalypha godseffiana were investigated to correlate its observed antifungal activity. Methods: Using standard methods, the phytochemical components of the leaf of Acalypha godseffiana were extracted with different solvents (acetone, ethanol, methanol and water), analysed and quantified. Their antifungal activities were assessed with their minimum inhibitory concentrations using serial dilution method. Results: The methanol extract with best yield (8.18%) extracted all the screened metabolites while the aqueous extract with similar yield (8.28%) extracted the least quantities of the metabolites. The methanolic extract also had the highest flavonoid content (379.66 mg/mL), acetone extracted the highest proanthocyanidin (264.67 mg/mL), ethanolic extract had the highest phenolics (208.03 mg/ mL) while the aqueous extract had the least of the polyphenolic compounds. The methanolic leaf extract of the plant showed stronger antifungal activity against Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans with less MIC (0.098 mg/mL) compared to standard antifungal drugs nystatin (MIC 0.250mg/mL) and ketoconazole (MIC 0.250 mg/mL). Acetone extract (MIC 0.781 mg/mL) also showed significant but less antifungal activity against Trychophyton mucoides compared to nystatin (MIC 0.500 mg/mL). Conclusion: The significant antifungal activities of the leave extracts of A. godseffiana may be attributed to its high flavonoid, saponin, phenolics and proanthocyanidin contents in the acetone and methanolic extracts. The results may justify the use of Acalypha godseffiana leaves in folk medicine for treatment of fungal skin infection and may serve as lead to future synthesis of a potent antifungal drug.

明智選擇 ? 醫療狂飆後的反思運動
Authors: 譚家偉 譚家偉 , Ka-Wai Tam 程毅君
Published: May 2023

近年來衛生福利部倡議明智選擇(Choosing Wisely)，各醫療院所亦開始思索如何投入此運動。明智選擇是為了壓制低效益醫療對病人安全的傷害及醫療成本的損耗，在2012年由美國內科醫學會基金會開始倡議的新觀念，之後國際間相繼響應成為一項全球性的運動。活動透過各學會提出其領域最常見的5到10項過度診斷或過度治療的項目，彙整後形成一個建議清單，讓醫療人員及民眾得知哪些處置為低效益醫療，以便揚棄或減少使用。要正確執行明智選擇可透過限制、減量、和溝通三種方法來達成。醫病共享決策(Shared Decision Making, SDM)很多時候是協助溝通來達成明智選擇的手段之一。本文除了闡述了明智選擇的內涵、源起及執行方式，也說明了它和SDM的差異，希望對讀者認識及實踐明智選擇有所幫助。

 

As the Ministry of Health and Welfare campaigns for the idea of “Choosing Wisely,” hospitals in Taiwan have been working to see how they could contribute to this campaign. An initiative proposed by the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) Foundation in 2012, Choosing Wisely serves to reduce the harm of low-value care to patient safety and the cost due to such care. This initiative later became a global movement with the support it gained from countries worldwide. In an event held by ABIM, they asked the participating associations to list 5 to 10 most common types of overdiagnosis or overtreatment in their fields. Based on items they provided, a list was then compiled to inform health-care professionals and the public of the low-value care practices for them to decide whether to stop or reduce such practices. The implementation of Choosing Wisely can be achieved through the actions of “Limit, Lean, or Listen”. Shared decision making is one of strategies to achieve Choosing Wisely through “Listening”. This article discussed the meaning, history, and implementation of Choosing Wisely and how it differs from shared decision making, with the aim of improving readers’ understanding and practice of Choosing Wisely.

Published: May 2023

Background: Indicators of quality in physiotherapy clinical placements offer opportunity to assess current practise. The Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) provides a framework to identify barriers and enablers to guide tailored strategies for improvement.

Aims: The aims of this study were to explore adherence to indicators of quality in a single physiotherapy department at a metropolitan teaching hospital, and to conceptualise the barriers and enablers to achieving quality in clinical placements in this context using the CFIR.

Methods: A mixed-methods sequential explanatory study design was undertaken at a metropolitan hospital in Queensland, Australia. Stakeholder’s perceptions of enablers and barriers to meeting quality indicators in relation to current practise were assessed using a standardised survey (n=28), followed by focus groups and semi-structured interviews (n=19).

Results: Three main themes were identified: (i) training in clinical education skills is essential but currently focuses on assessment, (ii) the clinical educator (CE) role is perceived as having low value, and (iii) opportunities identified to develop existing supports for CEs.

Conclusion: Findings from this study have informed strategies implemented at the facility under study, which focus on increasing the perceived value of the CE role, engaging CEs in training as educators, and collaboration with university coordinators.

The objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of mineral supplementation with organic selenium (Se) on rabies humoral immune response in ewes. It was randomly selected 18 Texel ewes without antirabic vaccination in the last 12 months and divided into 2 groups: treated group (TG) supplemented with a mineral mixture additioned of organic selenium and immunized against rabies and a control group (CG) supplemented with mineral mixture without organic selenium addition and immunized. Determination of Se serum was obtained by the enzyme glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity in two moments, the title and the persistence of anti-rabies neutralizing antibodies in five times by the Rapid Fluorescent Focus Inhibition Test (RFFIT). The mean values found in D210 GSH-Px were higher in TG with 981.8 ± 105.2 U/g Hb and 628.2 ± 188.2 U/g Hb in the CG (p-value < 0.001). The mean values of titers of anti-rabies neutralizing antibodies 30 days after primary vaccination, demonstrated statistically similar titles in the GT and GC, 1,020 IU/ mL in GT and 1,885 IU/ mL CG. Oral mineral supplementation of organic selenium during 210 days did not enhance the humoral immune response and persistence of evidence of rabies neutralizing antibodies, however caused increased serum retention of selenium in ewes.

The opossums are synanthropic mammals belonging to the genus Didelphis. They have a generalized diet, and this behavior exposes them to the chance of infection by several parasitic agents. Their close relationship with the human makes them act as disseminators of pathogens. The objective of the study was to evaluate the diversity of endoparasites infecting D. albiventris sampled in Canoinhas, Northern Santa Catarina. Thirty-eigth fecal samples were macro and microscopically analyzed, and of these 89.47% showed positivity for at least one endoparasite, 89.47% (34/38) for helminths and 60.52% (23/38) for protozoa. Nematode eggs of the order Strongylida and the genera Cruzia, Trichuris, Aspidodera, Physaloptera, Capillaria and Strongyloides were observed, as well as trematode eggs and oocysts of protozoa. In 38.3% of the animals four parasite types were detected, showing high occurrence of endoparasites and that multiparasitism is frequent in this species.

Dış koşullara karşı verilen bu mücadelenin uyumla sonuçlanması adaptasyon başarısı olarak karşımıza çıkmış ve neticede bu süreç doğal seçilim olarak adlandırılmıştır. İnsan da bir canlı olarak bu doğal sürece tabidir. Ancak insanın toplumsallığı ve doğal seçilim arasındaki karşılıklı ilişki onun kompleks zihinsel yetiler ve içgüdüler geliştirmesini sağlamıştır. Bu olgu, doğal seçilimin topluluk içindeki işleyiş tarzında bir çeşitlilik yaratmıştır. İnsan, toplumda bir arada yaşayabilen, diğeri için kendinden fedakarlık edebilen bir canlıdır. Bunun kökeninde, bireyin kendi yaşamını sürdürebilmesi için topluluğun kalıcılığını sağlamak amacıyla bir diğeriyle kurduğu ilişkiyi temellendiren davranışların saklanması ve sonraki kuşaklara aktarılması yatmaktadır. Bu süreç grup seçilimi olarak adlandırılmaktadır. Böylece insan, hem bireysel yaşam mücadelesi ve adaptasyon neticesinde bireysel seçilime; hem de diğerinin iyiliği için eyleyen özgeci tutumuyla grup seçilimine tabidir.

The prevalence of some tick-borne zoonotic bacteria (Borrelia sp., Coxiella burnetii, and Rickettsia sp.) in dog blood samples were examined using by PCR. A total of 200 dog blood samples were collected from dogs located in western Türkiye. Three pathogens for dogs, Borrelia burgdorferi, C. burnetii and Rickettsia sp. of were detected in dog blood samples. A single PCR was performed for the C. burnetii and multiplex PCR was applied for the Rickettsiae spp. and Borrelia burgdorferi. At the end of PCR study, Borrelia burgdorferi, C. burnetii and Rickettsiae sp. target pathogens were identified at the rate of 55.0% from all blood samples. The percentage distributions according to identified species were at the rate of C. burnetii 1.5%, Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato 2.0% and Rickettsiae spp. 51.5%. In this results show that the dogs may be a risk factor for the distribution of the tick-borne zoonotic bacteria. Tick borne zoonotic bacteria were to create a hazard to the human health.
Realizing the Future in the Present: Parent Organizing as a Practice of Solidarity

Published: May 2023

Imagining systemic change can be a lot to ask of Black and Latinx families in urban communities in light of long, sometimes intergenerational histories of marginalization and dehumanization in schools. For twenty years, CADRE (Community Asset Development Redefining Education) has been building the power and leadership of Black and Brown families in South Los Angeles “to protect and promote children’s dignity, opportunity to learn, and self-determination, by being at decision-making and policy-making tables and having the tools to monitor accountability in policy implementation.” When the community organizing group first engaged with the Family Leadership Design Collaborative (FLDC), CADRE had already successfully gotten the district to adopt new school discipline policies to disrupt the school-to-prison pipeline and had continued to monitor implementation (CADRE, 2017). However, the fundamental relationships and interactions between families and teachers in schools continued to reflect racist, dehumanizing ideologies entrenched in inequitable power dynamics. Maisie Chin, the Executive Director of CADRE, facilitated a series of codesign sessions with CADRE parents between 2017 and 2019 to not only surface these dynamics but to re-imagine how parent-teacher conversations and interactions might be different. CADRE co-designers undertook role-playing and collective reflection to intervene in moment-to-moment interactions as a way to change broader systemic dynamics.
Advancing Professional Development for Family, School and Community Engagement:
Authors: Caspe Margaret , Hernandez Reyna
Published: May 2023

What follows is a transcript of a conversation that was focused on the new family engagement core competency recommendations from the National Association for Family, School, and Community Engagement (NAFSCE). While it is not new to see specific recommendations for family engagement emerge – generally, these recommendations tend to be prescriptive in nature, grounded in Euro-centric ideologies, and school-centered. NAFSCE, however, has created competencies that, instead of centering what parents and families ought to be doing, emphasize power sharing and the transformation of traditional family, school, and community engagement practices. In addition, NAFSCE’s work has implications for all family-facing professionals, not just teachers and school administrators. Beyond the core competencies, we learn in our conversation more about how NAFSCE’s work around family, school, and community engagement is grounded in social justice and equity. This is especially critical given the fast-moving anti-CRT and anti-LGBTQ policies being passed and proposed nationwide. We invite our readers to consider how we might leverage the work of NAFSCE to more authentically center families and communities within family, school, and community engagement.

Published: May 2023

This study empirically tested the feasibility of machine learning in trading strategies using technical indicators and news information as the feature variables for machine learning. Six indicators were adopted in this study, including moving average (MA), moving average convergence/divergence (MACD), relative strength index (RSI), stochastic oscillator (KD), and on-balance volume (OBV), and news sentiment ratio (SR) developed in this study via text mining. Selected machine learning models, including support vector machine (SVM), eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), recurrent neural network (RNN), and long short-term memory (LSTM), were also employed for investigation. This study backtested the daily historical data of the constituent stocks in the Taiwan Top 50 ETF from January 1, 2003, to December 31, 2018, using three categories of trading strategies along with conventional and countertrend operations. The following conclusions were drawn after analyzing the performance of these trading strategies via various means: 1. Technical indicators such as MA, MACD, and RSI performed poorly in most cases. 2. Specific parameters were of relative importance to several technical indicators, including MA, MACD, RSI, and OBV. 3. OBV was a technical indicator with a positive impact on trading strategies. 4. The machine learning-based XGBoost models were able to outperform trading strategies with technical indicators under specific scenarios. 5. SR, the news sentiment ratio developed in this study, could not significantly improve the performance of machine learning models. The empirical results of this study suggest that these machine-learning models are capable of analyzing long-term stock price movements to some extent.

Tuva Türkçesinde {+KI} Aitlik Eki: Eski Türkçe Ve Türkiye Türkçesi İle Karşılaştırmalı Bir İnceleme
Authors: ÖZBEK Emin Erdem
Published: May 2023

Bu çalışmada, Güney Sibirya Türk lehçelerinden Tuva Türkçesinde {+KI} ekinin kullanımı üzerine, Eski Türkçe ve Türkiye Türkçesi ile karşılaştırmalı bir inceleme yapılmıştır. Türkçede genellikle aitlik eki olarak adlandırılan {+KI} eki, Türk dilinin yaygın ve işlek eklerinden biridir. Ekin temel fonksiyonu; bulunma, temsil, aitlik gibi anlamlarla sıfat veya zamir görevli unsurlar türetmektir. Ek, Eski Türkçeden beri kendine özgü kullanım özellikleriyle dikkat çeker. Yer ve zaman bildiren isim soylu sözcüklere doğrudan eklenebildiği gibi, bazı hâl eklerini almış sözcüklerden sonra da işlek olarak kullanılır; bu yönüyle yapım eki ile çekim eki arasında bir yerde konumlanır. Bu özellikleri nedeniyle söz konusu ekin diğer ekler arasındaki yeri de kaynaklarda tartışılmıştır. Ekin kullanımları, tarihî veya çağdaş lehçeler arasında benzer ve farklı yönlere sahiptir. Bu nedenle eldeki inceleme karşılaştırmalı olarak yapılmıştır. Ekin Tuva Türkçesindeki art zamanlı gelişimini göstermek amacıyla Eski Türkçeyle; incelenen özelliklerin Türkiye Türkçesindeki karşılıklarını göstermek açısından da Türkiye Türkçesiyle karşılaştırma yoluna gidilmiştir. Ekin Tuva Türkçesindeki genel özelliklerine konuyla ilgili kaynaklarda yer verildiği ancak üzerinde durulmayan yönlerin de olduğu görülmüştür. Bu incelemede ekin kullanım özelliklerinin çeşitli açılardan bir bütün hâlinde gösterilmesi ve özellikle Tuva Türkçesine özgü yanların karşılaştırmalı olarak ortaya çıkarılması amaçlanmaktadır. İnceleme; ekin fonetik özellikleri, kullanılış şekilleri ve işlevleri, eki alan sözcüklerin sözlükselleşme durumları ve ekin morfo-sentaktik özellikleri ana başlıkları altında yapılmıştır. İncelemeyle ilgili genel sonuçlar şu şekildedir: Aitlik eki almış sözcükler Tuva Türkçesinde sözlükselleşme bakımından daha ileri seviyededir. Türkiye Türkçesinde ek, geçici ilişkiler kurmak üzere işlek olarak kullanılırken Tuva Türkçesinde daha çok kalıplaşmış olarak varlık göstermektedir. Aitlik ekinin Türk dilinde yaygın bir özelliği, bulunma hâli ekinden sonra da işlek olarak kullanılmasıdır ancak Tuva Türkçesinde bu kullanım işlek değildir. İncelemede bunun sebepleri tahlil edilmiştir. Ek, Tuva Türkçesinde; sıra sayıları yapmak, başka birleşik ekler meydana getirmek gibi ilave gramerlik özellikler de kazanmıştır.
Rusça ve Türkçe Deyimlerde Renk Adları
Authors: BABATÜRK Leyla
Published: May 2023

Renkler insanların dünyayı algılama yollarından biridir. Her dilde renkler belirli sözcükler ya da kelime grupları aracılığıyla belirtilir. Ana renk adları bir dilin temel söz varlığına girer ve özgündür. İnsan bilincinde renkler ile ilgili bilgilerin toplamı, mensup olduğu halkın renk algısını belirler. Bu nedenle renkler, her kültürde belirli kavramları simgeler ve sözel olmayan iletişimde önemli yer tutar. Renklerin bu işlevi kültürel boyutları ile ilgilidir. Dilde kullanılan renk adlarının işlevleri ve taşıdıkları anlamlar başka kelimelerle bir araya geldiğinde oluşturulan kelime gruplarında ortaya çıkar. Dolayısıyla renklerin kültürel boyutu ile dilde renk adlarının dilsel boyutunu birbirinden ayırarak incelemekte fayda vardır.

Mevcut makalede birbirinden farklı iki dil ile iki kültürde kullanılan ve renk adı içeren deyimler anlam bilimsel açıdan incelenerek benzerlikler ve farklılıklar tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Araştırmada betimleme, karşılaştırmalı analiz ve karma analiz yöntemlerinin yanı sıra anlam bilimde sözcüklerin derin anlamlarını incelemeye yarayan bileşenler analizi ve dağılım analizi kullanılmıştır. Yapılan araştırma esnasında hem Rusça hem Türkçe deyimlerde daha sık üç ana renk adının (siyah, beyaz, kırmızı) geçtiği, bazı renk adlarının (gri, turuncu, lacivert) Türkçe deyimlerde hiç kullanılmadığını, muhtemelen alıntılama yoluyla dillere kazandırılan deyimler arasında yapısal ve anlamsal eşdeğerliliğin mevcut olduğunu gösteren sonuçlara ulaşılmıştır.

Lesbian Identity Construction: An Adhesive Identity Proces
Authors: Wang Yajie
Published: May 2023

As part of the sexual minority, lesbians receive less attention than gay men. Compared with gay men, lesbians bear more pressure from traditional culture and social discipline, and their identification process is more complicated. In other words, lesbians form a more open "mixed self" in the process of accepting multi-culture and multiple identities. To explore the identity status and mode of lesbians, the qualitative interview was used to conduct in-depth interviews with 5 lesbians. The results show that the main interaction dimensions of lesbians are as follows: In the process of interaction with self, parents, heterosexual community, and homosexual community in the above four dimensions, different situations or different situations in the same situation will change the way individuals manage their identities. Conflicts, coordination, concealment, or integration among different identities will affect the psychological state of individuals: Steadiness or anxiety, or sometimes steadiness and sometimes anxiety, will also lead to the different behavior of the individual. It can be seen that the identity of lesbians, namely the acceptance of their own multi-role identities, is a process of integration with multiple identities and roles. By introducing the concept of adhesive identity, this study enriched the interpretation of the psychological and behavioral manifestations of the lesbian identity process.

Authors: Xue Ruinan
Published: May 2023

Menstruation is supposed to be a normal physiological phenomenon for women, but even with the advancement of science and technology, the public has a partial understanding of the physiology of menstruation, while at the same time the stigma of menstruation still affects every woman. Menstrual shame is not only a physiological phenomenon, but also a social phenomenon with social connotations. This article summarises the menstrual shame that women experience in everyday life, and describes the direct and indirect negative effects of menstrual shame on women in terms of their physiology and psychology, work and study, as well as the negative effects of menstrual shame on society. The paper also examines the causes of menstrual shame, ranging from historical misconceptions to the lack of sex education and inappropriate media content due to the shame of “sex” in modern society. The lack of proper knowledge about menstruation can make it easier for people's attitudes towards menstruation to be influenced by societal attitudes. This paper also seeks to propose countermeasures: to popularise the physiological significance of menstruation through sex education and to guide positive attitudes towards menstruation through a proper understanding of menstruation. The paper also attempts to strengthen the regulation of menstruation-related content and to encourage talk about menstruation in public places.

ASPECTOS DO PROCESSO DE APRENDIZAGEM
Authors: Ceron Fátima Juliane Machado
Published: May 2023

A aprendizagem ainda é fragmentada no processo de ensino. Para investigar e discutir este processo, foi feita uma avaliação qualiquantitativa, por meio de meditação, bonificação e questionário. A bonificação e a meditação podem ser exemplos de ferramentas que aprimorem a concentração ou estímulo do aluno para a aprendizagem. O retorno a conteúdos, atividades extracurriculares e metodologias diferenciadas foram sugestões para motivar os alunos. Os alunos demonstram uma resistência a um novo modelo de sala de aula, além de aparente falta de autonomia e uma preocupação em atingir resultados de valores. Diante todas as variáveis que dificultam o processo de ensino e aprendizagem, o professor é o agente mediador para o despertar deste interesse. Para alcançá-lo, são fundamentais: o planejamento de aulas que motivem os alunos e conciliem o conhecimento geral com específico, salientando a criticidade; a criação de vínculos; crença no potencial de cada aluno; o ouvir; a coesão entre o ensino e o processo avaliativo; e a receptividade na relação entre aluno e professor.

O Brasil está entre os maiores produtores de leite de vaca do mundo. A cadeia produtiva do leite se distribui, praticamente, por todo o território nacional. Apesar de, historicamente, a produção se mostrar dispersa e heterogênea no País, torna-se fundamental verificar indicadores de concentração da atividade de forma ampla, em escala espaço-temporal, a qual pode refletir uma dinâmica na cadeia leiteira do País e transformações em curso. Diante do exposto, o presente estudo objetivou avaliar a evolução da produção e da produtividade leiteira no território nacional entre os anos de 2011 e 2021. Para o período analisado, a produção leiteira apresentou crescimento de apenas 10%. Porém, ressalta-se que houve redução no número de vacas ordenhadas e um acréscimo de 60% na produtividade, indicando o momento de impulso tecnológico que a pecuária de leite vivencia. Por outro lado, em termos espaciais, observou-se que a distribuição espacial da produção leiteira se modificou nos últimos dez anos. O Sul continua na vanguarda da inovação tecnológica da pecuária leiteira, mas agora é seguido de perto por outras importantes macrobacias, como Minas Gerais e Nordeste Oriental. Portanto, há indicativos de concentração tecnificada da produção leiteira em regiões do território nacional, ou seja, pode estar surgindo uma perspectiva de competitividade territorial, com formação de mão de obra, assistência técnica e todos os serviços necessários para o desenvolvimento da produção leiteira.
