Exploring Caste and Sexuality in Indian English Writing
Authors: Issar Lucky
Published: November 2024

Exploring Caste and Sexuality in Indian English Writing: Outcast Subcultures examines the ways in which caste intersects and shapes matters of desire, gender, religion, and language. It demonstrates how postcolonial upper-caste theorists and fiction writers obscure caste, and when they do discuss it, they seem to reinforce it. Dominant brahminic discourse discusses issues concerning women's rights, equality, justice, and neocolonialism, but ignores caste-based discrimination and exclusion and the practice of untouchability which are everyday occurrences in Indian life. To understand the brahminic obsession with caste and sexuality, this book examines the works of Arundhati Roy, V. S. Naipaul, R. K. Narayan, and M. K. Gandhi, making a compelling argument that the freedom of choice in matters of sexuality was not unknown in medieval and ancient India: If the urban elite pursues desire freely today, so did the upper-caste men and women of Vatsyana's time. Unlike the upper-caste elite, caste regulated 'ordinary people' or Dalits then just as it regulates them now, which suggests how the brahminic elite in different epochs creates non-normative spaces for itself without giving up caste order.
Spiritualität in der Medizin
Authors: Ammon Anna
Published: November 2024

Manifestations of Christianity can also be found in medical contexts. On the basis of an interdisciplinary anthropology and a relational ethics of care and responsibility, the dialog between theology and medicine will be adjusted more precisely. In this way, religious culture of interpretation in the interdisciplinary field is to be made linguistically capable and connectable. The focus of this study is on medical personnel. Spiritual care as an effort towards spirituality in healthcare is a cross-sectional task that is ideally located in a multidisciplinary team. The work is aimed equally at theologians and pastoral care workers as well as those working in (perinatal) medical contexts.

Authors: Ramos Clodoaldo
Published: November 2024

Formative research is a teaching-learning strategy to strengthen research skills, continuing education, problem solving in different areas. The book responds to the objective of determining the relationship between formative research and the achievement of competencies from undergraduate theses in university higher education. It addresses four chapters: I: Formative research and development of research skills, includes the historical evolution and educational and social changes related to research. It describes the characteristics of formative research based on critical thinking, taking into account the gradual development of research skills as a sequential process integrating the curriculum. II: Achievement of research-oriented competencies, considers aspects referred to the research competencies of teachers and students, so that formative research reaches the desired objectives. It is complemented with cooperative methodological strategies for the practical exercise of research, confirming an undeniable duality between professional training and research. III: Formative research and achievement of competencies from undergraduate theses, the research conducted was applied, with a cross-sectional correlational design. The study universe was 1448 published theses, with stratified sampling of 110 theses. The results show that only 12.7% of the evaluated theses indicate a full achievement of competencies, most of the students are satisfied with their educational course; however, there are still expectations of institutional support such as laboratories, infrastructure, offices, implementation of technical equipment, calls for projects, periodic evaluation of educational courses and interaction with other strategic alliances between national and international universities. It is concluded that there is a relationship between formative research and the achievement of competencies from the review of the theses. Finally, Chapter IV: Experiences of formative research and achievement of research competencies, shows the experiences of a research seedbed program “Teaching - learning Mathematics with Khan Academy”, from the call to the dissemination of results, and the impact of research through social projection and cultural extension. It also illustrates a concrete case of the thesis advising process in a public university and a private university.

Uji Daya Hambat Ekstrak Lidah Buaya (Aloe barbadensis miller) terhadap Pertumbuhan Bakteri Propionibacterium Acnes
Authors: Asyahra St. Fatima , Islawati Islawati , Arwie Dzikra
Published: November 2024

Aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis miller) contains antibacterial compounds such as tannins and saponins, which have the potential to combat Propionibacterium acnes, the bacteria responsible for acne. This study aims to evaluate the inhibitory effect of aloe vera extract on P. acnes through a laboratory experimental method. The extract was obtained through maceration using various concentrations: 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%. Testing was conducted in triplicate, with clindamycin as the positive control and distilled water as the negative control. The well diffusion method was used for testing, followed by analysis with a One-Way ANOVA test. Results showed p = 0.000, indicating that aloe vera extract significantly inhibits P. acnes. Post hoc LSD analysis revealed significant differences between concentrations, except between clindamycin and the 100% concentration (p > 0.05). The highest mean inhibition zone was found at the 100% concentration (16.6 mm) and the lowest at 20% (9.3 mm). This study suggests that aloe vera extract has potential as a natural antibacterial agent for acne treatment, providing an alternative to reduce synthetic antibiotic use and the risk of bacterial resistance.
Titán nanorészecskék hatása az emberi egészségre

A közlemény aktualitását az adja, hogy a közelmúltban megjelent élelmiszer-adalékanyagokról szóló európai uniós rendelet megtiltja a titán-dioxid (E171) felhasználását az élelmiszerekben. A titán a periódusos rendszer 22. eleme, a földön a 10. leggyakoribb elem, ami főleg titán-dioxid (TiO2) formában található. Nemcsak a fém- és festékipar használja a titánt, hanem étrend-kiegészítőként is széles körben használták mostanáig. Pékáruk, bevonatok, rágógumik, fehér csokoládé, italfehérítők, ízesített italok (pl. üdítők, italporok), szószok, feldolgozott hal- és halászati termékek (pl.: füstölt hal) adalékanyagaként is alkalmazták. A titán-dioxidnak semmilyen tápértéke nincs, csupán azért alkalmazzák, hogy az ételnek, italnak fehér színt, ragyogást adjon. A gyógyszeripar a tabletták és kapszulák készítéséhez használ(t) titán-dioxidot. Miután kiderült, hogy a titánium nanorészecskék bár kis mértékben, de felszívódnak és a szervezetben felhalmozódnak, továbbá krónikus gyulladást, malignus betegségeket is okozhatnak, 2022-ben európai élelmiszerbiztonsági ügynökség rendeletet adott ki a titánium élelmiszerekben történő alkalmazásának tilalmáról. A gyógyszerekre vonatkozó EU-rendelet kiadásának határideje 2025. A titánkérdés paradoxonának tekinthető, hogy az onkológiában több titántartalmú tumorellenes gyógyszert alkalmaznak, és zajlik a kutatás egyre hatékonyabb gyógyszerek irányába.
USA – Portugal Relations: Foreign Policy and Ideology | Relações EUA – Portugal: Política Externa e Ideologia
Authors: Nogueira Pinto Teresa
Published: November 2024

Foreign policy strategies are often the product of a delicate balance between ideology and pragmatism. Through the analysis of three moments of critical juncture — the clash between the Kennedy Administration and the Estado Novo Regime, the eventful early years of the Portuguese democratic transition and the 2003 Lajes Summit which preceded the invasion of Iraq — this paper explores the balance between idealism and pragmatism which characterizes contemporary US – Portugal relations. The analysis of these three moments suggests that while both nations have resorted to ideological, sometimes messianic, claims (as evidenced by the idea of American exceptionalism of Portugal’s “universal vocation”) as narratives of legitimation, the pragmatic approach has eventually prevailed.

Factors Affecting Muslims' Decision in Tangerang Selatan During Recession to Make Sharia Investment
Authors: Salsabila Rania
Published: November 2024

The pandemic has had a significant impact on the global economy, including Indonesia, which experienced a recession in 2020. However, a unique phenomenon occurs in the Islamic capital market, where Islamic stocks show stability and even experience significant increases during the recession. The study explores how the recession affects the decision of Muslims in Indonesia to invest in Sharia and whether Sharia investment can be an effective solution to deal with a recession. Data from the Central Statistics Agency and the Financial Services Authority shows that the sharia capital market in Indonesia continues to grow, especially in the form of sharia stocks and sharia mutual funds. This study aims to analyze the factors that affect the decision of the Muslim community to make sharia investments during the recession due to the COVID-19 pandemic.  This study uses quantitative methods with respondents from various sectors of the Muslim community in Indonesia, including students, office workers, and entrepreneurs. The results of this study found that the decisions of the Muslim community have a significant influence on Islamic investment, with the results of the t-test showing a t-count value of 25.366 and a determination coefficient (R²) of 86.8%. This means that most of the variations in sharia investment can be explained by community decisions, while the remaining 13.2% is influenced by other variables.  The conclusion of this study is that increasing Islamic financial literacy and religious understanding can be an effective strategy to encourage interest in Islamic investment in Indonesia. This research is expected to be a reference for financial institutions and policymakers in improving accessibility and education related to Sharia investment.
“TIS THE SEASON TO BE BINGEING…”: FESTIVE TELEVISION AND THE THEMED RELEASE

With the Christmas period well and truly upon us, it seems only fitting to consider the time-honoured, festive tradition of bingeing. For better or for worse, Christmas has become synonymous with the act of bingeing – not just because of the copious amounts of mince pies and mulled wine that we might consume, but also because of the increased amount of television that we typically view during the festive period.

Authors: Li Lei , Kong Fanmin , Xiao Ang , Su Hao , Wu Xiaolian , Zhang Ziling , Wang Haoqi , Duan Yutian
Published: November 2024

Owing to the escalating demand for environmentally friendly commodities, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are gaining extensive recognition as a viable means of energy storage and conversion. LIBs comprise cathode and anode electrodes, electrolytes, and separators. Notably, the separator, a crucial and indispensable element in LIBs that mainly comprises a porous membrane material, necessitates substantial research focus. Scholars have consequently strived to devise novel systems that augment separator efficiency, bolster safety measures, and surmount existing constraints. This review endeavors to equip researchers with comprehensive information on polyolefin-based separator membranes, encompassing performance prerequisites, functional attributes, scientific advancements, and so on. Specifically, it scrutinizes the latest innovations in porous membrane configuration, fabrication, and enhancement that utilize the most prevalent polyolefin materials today. Consequently, robust and enduring membranes fabricated have demonstrated superior effectiveness across diverse applications, facilitating a circular economy that curbs waste materials, reduces operational expenses, and mitigates environmental impact.

Published: November 2024

This study aims to determine the role of technology in learning Islamic Religious Education, which in school institutions often results in failure, even though these students have been given these lessons, they often do not use them and do not apply what they have learned through their schools. This type of research is qualitative research using the Libery Research Method. Because this research is descriptive and uses analysis. Technology in PAI learning helps students understand the material taught by teachers, such as using the internet to communicate with teachers and students, using meeting room applications to create internet-based classrooms, and using audio and visual media. The constructivist paradigm of learning Islamic religious education argues that for PAI learning to be meaningful, students must be actively involved in acquiring knowledge about it. This is expected to have an impact on the formation of students' desire to practice worship and muamalah as a result of Islamic religious education
Coping with Supply-chain Shocks: Learning from Organization’s Response in Times of Crisis
Authors:   Professor in SPJIMR's Finance & Economics department., Shingal Anirudh
Published: November 2024

Why are some supply-chain links disrupted by external shocks while others are maintained? How do firms recover quickly from supply-chain shocks in times of crises? Recent research by teams led by Guedhami and Todo provides some answers by examining how firms responded to the Covid-19 crisis.1,2 Flexibility in strategy and the ability to optimize corporate policies to capitalize on the staggered impact of the pandemic in different countries across the world have proven to have helped. Moreover, links with a supplier or customer in the home country of a foreign-owned firm ensured that firms were less adversely affected while having access to suppliers and customers across different countries enabled the firms to recover quickly. Additionally, government support can also mitigate supply chain risks and even transform challenges into opportunities
Build Next-Gen Warehouse: Boost Efficiency & Customer Satisfaction with Automated Order Picking
Authors:   Associate Professor with SPJIMR's Operations Supply Chain Management & Quantitative Methods department., Rao Subir , Khan Faizan , Wanage Virendra M
Published: November 2024

Online shopping demand has outpaced the development of supporting infrastructure and resources. This might seem to be a good problem for e-tailers and warehouses. However, if this demand is not fulfilled efficiently, it can have costly consequences, even for the biggest and best brands. Order delays and errors mean customer satisfaction suffers, and costs inflate – a combination which squeezes an organization’s bottom line. This increasing pressure on efficient order fulfillment has led to advances in warehouse design and automation. However, new research suggests that warehousing efficiencies can be increased a further 20% or more by using an algorithm that combines two datasets – demand for a product, and its affinity to be ordered with other products. This research, by Masoud Mirzaei, Nima Zaerpour and Rene de Koster, found these gains in warehouses that use automated order picking – where robots bring entire racks with products to human operatives.1 We believe that the core insight can change the game for all warehouses – regardless of the degree of automation – by reducing order-picking time, enabling faster delivery times and improving space utilization
Psychometric evaluation of Schwarzer & Jerusalem's General Self-Efficacy Scale among Indian adolescents: A factor analysis and multidimensional item response theory approach
Authors: Das Sumit Kumar , Philip Mariamma , Sudhir Paulomi M. , VS Binu
Published: November 2024

Introduction

The General Self-Efficacy (GSE) scale developed by Schwarzer and Jerusalem has been found in previous studies to be both unidimensional and multidimensional constructs.

Objective

This study applied factor analysis (FA) and multidimensional item response theory (MIRT) techniques to evaluate the GSE scale’s factor structure in Indian adolescents.

Method

The data for this study was taken from the latest round of the Young Lives Survey (YLS) conducted in the Indian states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana in 2016. The GSE scale’s dimensionality was confirmed with factor analysis, and item parameters were estimated using the graded response model in the MIRT approach. Sex-wise measurement of invariance was also checked using the factor analysis approach.

Results

The value of Cronbach’s alpha was 0.75, demonstrating a fairly good internal consistency. Both FA and MIRT indicated the presence of two dimensions of the GSE scale. Items 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, and 10 were associated with one-dimension named ‘general self-efficacy’, while Items 1, 3, and 6 were highly loaded with another dimension named ‘task-specific self-efficacy’. The statistics obtained from MIRT showed that this scale is useful for studies involving subjects with lower levels of self-efficacy. Slight modifications to items 2 and 3 may be made before using them in an Indian context.
Evangelizar nuestra oración
Authors: Blanco Berga José Ignacio
Published: November 2024

En este artículo se aborda una reflexión sobre el significado de evangelizar la oración, enfocándose en la relación afectiva con Dios como elemento central de la vida cristiana, destacando que la oración no es un fin en sí mismo, sino una mediación para nutrir esa relación. A través de ejemplos como la intimidad de Jesús con el Padre, subraya la importancia de la calidad en la oración más que en la cantidad y señala que la oración debe ser un espacio para que Dios se comunique con el creyente, permitiendo un proceso de transformación personal. Además, recalca que la vida cristiana se fundamenta en
las virtudes teologales de fe, esperanza y amor, y que la oración debe estar orientada hacia ellas. Finalmente, propone una reflexión sobre cómo la vida ordinaria puede convertirse en oración si está basada en la fe.
La providencia divina en la vida humana según santo Tomás de Aquino
Authors: Torrijo Castrillejo David
Published: November 2024

La providencia divina, según santo Tomás de Aquino, es el orden de la sabiduría divina por el cual conduce las criaturas a su fin. Forma parte de esa disposición la existencia de cosas necesarias, contingentes y libres. El infalible carácter del conocimiento y la voluntad divina no están reñidos con la naturaleza falible de las cosas ordenadas por Dios: la providencia ha dispuesto infaliblemente que las cosas sucedan de manera falible. Incluso los actos de la libertad humana se encuentran bajo la dirección de la mente divina, pues el creador coopera con el libre albedrío. El cuidado de la providencia divina es estudiado por santo Tomás de manera especial en su Comentario al libro de Job, que constituye la segunda parte de estas páginas. En esta obra, contempla cómo el mal y el sufrimiento humanos encuentran remedio por la providencia divina. Existen argumentos racionales que permiten arrojar algo de luz sobre el enigma del sufrimiento humano. Con todo, es la mirada de la fe la que proporciona una confianza última en la salvación del hombre
pecador y sufriente.

Catastrophic Idealism: The case of Fichte
Authors: Râmbu Nicolae
Published: November 2024

The abusive interpretation of a text is common practice in the history of philosophy. Johann Gottlieb Fichte is, however, from this point of view, a ‘case’. He is the model ofa well-intentioned author, who attacks, in his writings of political philosophy, a de-demonization of the political power, through a new kind of education. This process, how­ever, has led to the emergence of other ‘demons’. He is the creator of the myth of the nation as political myth, in which the magical function of the word predominates over the function of semantics, in the meanings specified by Cassirer in The Myth of the State.In Nazi philosophical and ideological discourse, ‘The Divine Idea’ of Fichte is tacitly replaced by the new Weltanschauung, his political idealism thus becoming a danger.

In this study, we aimed to revisit and highlight the technique of antegrade drilling of the femur-stem interface during revision hip arthroplasty for extraction of the fluted cementless tapered stems, and to highlight the risk for femoral comminution with unplanned stem extraction. The unique design of fluted stems creates several stress risers in the femoral cortex, and care should be taken while performing a trochanteric osteotomy for stem extraction in such cases in order to avoid unplanned bone fracture, which could compromise the stability of the new implant.
Conceptualización metafórica de la menopausia
Authors: Pérez Hernández Lorena
Published: November 2024

A lo largo de la historia, la menopausia ha sido considerada alternativamente como un pecado, un tipo de neurosis, una enfermedad o una deficiencia. Recientemente ha sido reinterpretada de forma más positiva como un nuevo comienzo, un viaje de autodescubrimiento o una especie de energía interior. Cada una de estas conceptualizaciones metafóricas refleja una ideología particular asociada a perspectivas religiosas, biomédicas y feministas, entre otras. Sin embargo, el discurso de las mujeres sobre la menopausia ha sido históricamente escaso, ocultado y silenciado por el tabú social que rodea este tema. Esto ha cambiado en las últimas décadas al comenzar las mujeres a hablar abiertamente sobre sus experiencias menopáusicas en los medios de comunicación. Adoptando como marco el Análisis Crítico de la Metáfora, este estudio investiga la conceptualización contemporánea de la menopausia de las mujeres británicas. Los estudios sobre las metáforas de la menopausia son escasos y a menudo se llevan a cabo desde una perspectiva biomédica o sociológica (feminista), los dos contextos en los que tradicionalmente ha tenido lugar la mayoría de las conversaciones sobre la menopausia. Analizamos una colección de 300 expresiones metafóricas procedentes de testimonios de mujeres sobre su experiencia, sentimientos y pensamientos sobre la menopausia. El análisis cualitativo de los datos ofrece un retrato detallado de los marcos metafóricos que subyacen al discurso de las mujeres contemporáneas sobre la menopausia. Esta investigación pretende dar voz en este tema a las protagonistas reales: las mujeres que están atravesando una fase relevante de sus vidas.
Biting into the Bitter Reality: A Metaphorical Exploration of Food Disorders
Authors: Gozalo Gómez Paula , Moreno Sandoval Antonio
Published: November 2024

This study investigated the metaphorical representation of eating disorders in a bilingual corpus of blogs. The analysis yielded three common metaphors: ED IS A JOURNEY; ED IS A WAR and ED IS A CONTAINER. Two language-specific metaphors emerged: ED IS A LIVING ENTITY in the Spanish subcorpus and ED IS A BODY in the English subcorpus. The journey and war metaphors demonstrated subtle linguistic nuances, with the Spanish speakers emphasizing the disease’s challenges and the English speakers emphasizing the prospects for recovery. The specific metaphors ED IS A LIVING ENTITY and ED IS A BODY highlighted cultural variations in agency, with the Spanish speakers portraying themselves as passive sufferers and the English speakers viewing themselves as active agents in the recovery process. This cultural divergence aligns with the distinct value orientations of American and Spanish cultures. While the limited text corpus precludes definitive conclusions, the findings align with previous research on conceptual metaphors in ED discourse. Further investigation is warranted to establish the figurative potential of different languages and determine whether either language employs more metaphors in the ED communicative domain.
Género y salud reproductiva
Authors: Sánchez Manzanares Carmen , Santamaría Pérez Isabel
Published: November 2024

La salud de las mujeres y los hombres muestra diferencias debido a su conformación biológica por sexo, pero también derivadas del género por circunstancias socioculturales. Así, existe una relación entre la construcción social del género y los comportamientos y actitudes de hombres y mujeres ante la salud, la sexualidad y la reproducción (Moreno y Carrillo 2016; Ruiz Cantero 2019). Con la incorporación de la perspectiva de género, se ha mostrado la persistencia y la prevalencia de ciertas ideologías sexistas relacionadas con el cuerpo y la libertad sexual de las mujeres. Probablemente, uno de los temas que mejor refleja estos patrones ideológicos es el de las Infecciones de Transmisión Sexual (ITS). El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la base cognitiva de la terminología empleada en el ámbito de las ITS y mostrar su representación discursiva en los medios de comunicación. Para ello, creamos un corpus textual ad hoc a partir de revistas divulgativas y blogs de salud sexual en el que comprobaremos si los artículos abordan las ITS más frecuentes con perspectiva de género. Los resultados muestran que los términos por sí mismos no presentan una carga ideológica ni tampoco sus usos en el discurso, pues las revistas muestran sensibilidad de género en el tratamiento de las ITS.
A novel “conceive, design, implement, operate (CDIO)” framework for evaluating artificial intelligence–generated scholarly manuscripts
Authors: Wibawa Aji Prasetya , Handayani Anik Nur , Anugrah Prananda , Utama Agung Bella Putra
Published: November 2024

This paper introduces a novel application of the “conceive, design, implement, operate (CDIO)” framework to improve the thoroughness and organization of academic editorial review processes. It demonstrates that the CDIO framework, originally applied to engineering education, can also be adapted for reviewing creative and interdisciplinary ideas. The adaptation of the CDIO framework for editorial review is already evident in scholarly publications, and this paper extends its application to include reviews of content produced by artificial intelligence (AI) platforms. The “conceive” stage focuses on developing clear research questions and objectives that align with the key moments of article conception. It ensures that content produced by AI begins with an ethical scientific foundation and maintains this integrity throughout the process. The “design” stage emphasizes maintaining scientific accuracy and clarity of presentation. It considers all critical manuscript design elements and incorporates methods to evaluate the originality and rationality of AI-generated data and analysis. The “implementation” stage is concerned with the effective communication of findings, providing insights into how the manuscript is perceived. It is crucial for data generation or tool usage involving AI. The “operate stage” involves analyzing the findings and their overall impact on the field, ensuring a comprehensive assessment from all perspectives when AI-generated content is integrated into academic discourse, which has broader implications. By applying the CDIO framework innovatively, this paper offers a systematic and comprehensive method for conducting editorial reviews. This ensures that manuscripts generated by AI are subjected to the same rigorous scrutiny as those authored by humans. This approach improves the quality, transparency, and reputation of scholarly publications. We examine each stage of the CDIO process, achieving uniformity and clarity, and providing a more precise evaluation of both traditional and AI-assisted academic research.

Instituições Públicas de Pesquisa (IPP) desempenham um papel crucial no desenvolvimento nacional, contudo enfrentam desafios diante de mudanças políticas, econômicas e sociais. Este estudo propõe um modelo de forecasting tecnológico para IPP, integrando inovação, custos e potencial de mercado com a Modelagem por Equações Estruturais. Conforme as leis de inovação, as IPP são encarregadas de contribuir economicamente e socialmente através do desenvolvimento tecnológico. Em uma pesquisa com 104 servidores de três IPP no Piauí, o modelo proposto evidencia que mecanismos de forecasting tecnológico podem influenciar a análise de custos, estratégias de inovação e a visão de mercado. Com base nos questionários aplicados, evidenciou-se a necessidade de capacitação em Propriedade Intelectual e de investimentos nos Núcleos de Inovação Tecnológica. Tais ações visam aprimorar os processos de Transferência de Tecnologia (TT). Observa-se que análise de custos, estratégias de inovação e visão de mercado favorecem uma avaliação e valoração adequada das tecnologias.

O Linfoma não-Hodgkin de Células do Manto é um tipo de câncer do sistema linfático, conhecido por sua agressividade e morfologia específicas. Este estudo possui um contexto desafiador para os profissionais, pois envolve áreas como: medicina, especialidades de hematologia e oncologia, biomedicina, enfermagem, farmácia, fisioterapia e psicologia. Mesmo com o avanço da ciência e da tecnologia, essa é uma doença incurável, mas, com excelentes tratamentos que diminuem o sofrimento e oferecem melhor qualidade de vida ao paciente. Dessa forma, reconhecendo a importância de estudar o tema de forma mais ampla, objetivou-se analisar em primeiro momento uma revisão de literatura e em segundo momento relatar um caso de LCM. Para tanto, utilizou-se uma metodologia que consistiu em pesquisa bibliográfica em artigos e revistas online, disponíveis nas bases de dados como Google Scholar, PubMed, Scielo, Lilacs, publicados entre os anos de 2010 a 2024 e posteriormente, coletando dados em um consultório médico, juntamente com a aplicação de um questionário ao paciente relatado. Portanto concluiu-se que o LCM é uma neoplasia agressiva e complexa em potencial e necessita uma abordagem multidisciplinar. Embora, seja incurável, os avanços no tratamento como quimioterapia de alta dose, uso de anticorpos monoclonais (Rituximabe) e o transplante de medula óssea, têm aumentado a expectativa e melhora na qualidade de vida dos pacientes. A literatura recente aborda a importância de intervenções precoces e integradas, além do contínuo desenvolvimento de terapias eficazes. O caso clínico relatado reforça essas abordagens, enfatizando a necessidade de tratamento individualizado e associação de terapias combinadas eficazes para alcançar a remissão do LCM.

Introdução: A dor neuropática é uma condição clínica desafiadora que prejudica significativamente a qualidade de vida dos pacientes devido a uma variedade de causas, incluindo lesões e doenças que afetam o sistema nervoso. Com uma prevalência de cerca de 10% na população geral, essa dor apresenta um manejo terapêutico complexo, frequentemente exigindo o uso combinado de várias classes de medicamentos, como antidepressivos e anticonvulsivantes. Objetivo: Sintetizar e comparar os principais resultados do uso de antidepressivo e anticonvulsivantes no tratamento da dor neuropática. Metodologia: Revisão sistemática da literatura, utilizando os estudos clínicos randomizados publicados nos últimos 20 anos e disponíveis em bases de dados como U.S. National Institutes of Health’s National Library of Medicine (PubMed), ZB MED Search Portal for Life Sciences (LIVIVO), Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS), Scientific Electronic Library Online (Scielo) e Open Index of Scholarly Works (OpenAlex), utilizando os Descritores em Ciências da Saúde em inglês “Antidepressive Agents”; “Anticonvulsants” e “Neuropathic Pain” e o termo “Neuropathic Pain”, que não estava disponível nos DeCS. A partir dos critérios de elegibilidade, foram escolhidos ensaios clínicos randomizados no idioma inglês, português e espanhol, dos últimos 20 anos, sendo a amostra final composta por onze artigos. Resultados: Observou-se superioridade da pregabalina em pacientes com queixas de disfunção sexual, e revelou melhoria na qualidade do sono e na função física. Já a duloxetina foi bem-vista para alívio de dor intensa em indivíduos com depressão e ansiedade. Na combinação dos medicamentos, foi possível o uso em doses menores, acarretando menos efeitos colaterais. Conclusão: Ambos medicamentos são eficazes no controle da dor neuropática, mas a escolha entre a duloxetina e pregabalina requer uma abordagem personalizada, considerando as características individuais de cada paciente para otimizar os resultados clínicos.
