Comunicação de más notícias: do ensino médico à prática
Authors: Isquierdo Ana Paula Rosa , Bilek Evandro Santos , Guirro Úrsula Bueno do Prado
Published: September 2021

Resumo “Más notícias” são informações que, quando reveladas, afetam seriamente e de forma adversa a visão de uma pessoa sobre o próprio futuro. O objetivo deste estudo é avaliar a habilidade de comunicação dessas informações entre alunos de medicina. O método utilizado foi a simulação de situação em que os estudantes precisavam transmitir uma má notícia. Avaliou-se a cena interpretada por meio de questionário estruturado, considerando um objetivo primário (comunicar a notícia) e outro secundário (acolhimento do paciente). A amostra foi formada por 60 estudantes, dos quais 96,7% atingiram o objetivo primário e apenas 21,7% atingiram o objetivo secundário (total ou parcialmente). Os estudantes que demonstraram mais cuidado e preocupação com o paciente tiveram melhor desempenho. Conclui-se que a comunicação de más notícias pode ser avaliada com instrumento estruturado, e que a demonstração de cuidado e preocupação se correlaciona de maneira positiva com a qualidade da comunicação.
Modos de agir para resolução de conflitos na atenção primária
Authors: Marin Juliana , Ribeiro Carlos Dimas Martins
Published: September 2021

Resumo O objetivo deste estudo é analisar modos de agir de profissionais da Estratégia Saúde da Família na resolução de conflitos bioéticos, tomando como fundamento a teoria do agir comunicativo e a ética do discurso. Foi realizada pesquisa qualitativa com uma equipe de saúde da família, com observação, entrevistas e grupo focal. Os resultados mostram que, diante de conflitos, alguns profissionais agem visando o êxito pessoal, o que deixa o conflito sem solução, latente, fragmentando a equipe. Outros, no entanto, buscam o entendimento por meio do agir comunicativo, visando o êxito coletivo, que se traduz no cuidado do paciente. Quando não são resolvidos entre os intervenientes, os conflitos são levados a reuniões que estimulam o diálogo.

Abstract Hemoplasmas are epierythrocytic bacteria that infect mammals. ‘Candidatus Mycoplasma haemoalbiventris’ was detected in white-eared opossums (Didelphis albiventris) from southern and central-western Brazil. The present study aimed at: i) screening opossums for tick-borne (TBP) pathogens (Piroplasmida and Anaplasmataceae) and ii) detecting and characterizing hemoplasma species infecting opossums from Curitiba and Foz do Iguaçu cities in the Paraná State, southern Brazil. Thirty blood samples from white-eared opossums were evaluated by PCR assays. Animals were not infested by ectoparasites. The mammalian endogenous gapdh gene was consistently amplified in all samples. All opossums tested negative for Theileria/Babesia spp. and Ehrlichia/Anaplasma spp. by PCR based on 18S rRNA and 16S rRNA genes, respectively. A genus-specific PCR assay based on the 16S rRNA gene of hemoplasmas showed that three/13 (23.08%; CI 95%: 8.18-50.26%) opossums from Foz do Iguaçu were positive for hemotropic Mycoplasma sp. All opossums from Curitiba tested negative for hemoplasmas. Sequencing of both the 16S and 23S rRNA genes revealed that the animals were infected by ‘Ca. M. haemoalbiventris’. Although ‘Ca. M. haemoalbiventris’ is prevalent in opossums in Brazil, clinical signs associated with its infection and its putative vectors remain unknown.

Abstract Aimed with this study to evaluate vertical transmission of Neospora caninum in naturally infected sheep and to monitor the kinetics of antibodies against this protozoon in their lambs. Therefore, 48 pregnant ewes, from five herds, were divided into two groups: G1 - positive for anti-N. caninum antibodies, with 19 animals; and G2 - seronegative, with 29 animals. Blood samples were taken from the ewes and their lambs, immediately after birth, before ingesting colostrum, and 2, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49 and 56 days after birth. Analysis on serum antibodies was performed using the indirect immunofluorescent antibody test. Among the 19 seropositive mothers, six (31.6%) gave birth to lambs seropositive before ingesting colostrum and it was found that these lambs remained positive until the end of the study (56 days). Only one of the lambs, from a ewe that presented an antibody titer of 200, seroconverted after ingestion of colostrum. All the lambs that had been born from negative mothers remained negative throughout the experimental period. It was concluded that transplacental transmission was an important form of diffusion of N. caninum in the herds studied and that seropositive lambs maintained circulating antibodies during the period analyzed.

THE EFFECT OF ANNEALING AND COLD FORGING ON MICROSTRUCTURE AND HARDNESS PROPERTIES OF AL-SIC COMPOSITE: A PRELIMINARY STUDY. Aluminium Metal Matrix Composites (AMMCs) are one of the exciting materials that have an extensive function in various applications. By utilizing reinforcement in the fabrication process, Al composites can produce superior properties such as high strength, good fracture resistance, and of course, lightweight. Therefore, many studies are interested in revealing the characteristics of Al composite materials through various methods and variations of reinforcement. This research is a preliminary study with a scope of work, including observing the effects of annealing and cold forging processes on the microstructure morphology and hardness properties of SiC nano-ceramic reinforced Al composites. The aluminium used in this study is a 7xxx series aluminium alloy. The fabrication process was carried out by stir-squeeze casting method. Microstructure analysis was conducted by optical microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) equipped with Emission Dispersion Spectroscopy (EDS). The hardness properties of the Al-SiC composite were examined by micro Vickers hardness testing. This research reported that the annealing process influences the grain refinement and hardness properties of the Al-SiC composite. The sample experienced to cold forging has to improve the hardness value. Increasing hardness by forging after anneal may introduce due to the grain compression effect of the dislocation mechanism. Comprehensive research is required to find out other potentials of Al-SiC composite materials. Keywords: Al-SiC composite, annealing temperature, cold forging, hardness, microstructure.
Benzothiazolylhydrazone-Based Turn-on Fluorescent Probe for Detecting Cu2+: S-donor as a Cu2+-induced Fluorescence Quenching Inhibitor
Authors: Li Qiao , Zhao Yang , Wang Enju
Published: September 2021

The fluorescent turn-on detection of metal ions is highly desirable for public health and environmental security. Herein, we report a rationally designed fluorescent probe (1) for the detection of Cu2+ synthesized by integrating 2-hydrazinylbenzothiazole with 3-acetyl-7-hydroxycoumarin. The probe alone is non-fluorescent due to the isomerization of C=N in the excited state. The addition of Cu2+ can cause a delayed fluorescence enhancement. A comparative study of 1 and its analogues indicated that the turn-on fluorescence response was thanks to the sulfur atom coordinating to Cu2+. The response delay of 1 in sensing Cu2+ was ascribed to the gradual transition from N-coordination to S-coordination (N and S in thiazole moiety). The proposed new function of S-donor would provide a new approach for the turn-on fluorescence sensation of Cu2+.

Published: September 2021

This work mainly focused on the production of an efficient, economical, and eco-friendly lipase (AKL29) from Actinomadura keratinilytica strain Cpt29 isolated from poultry compost in north east of Algeria, for use in detergent industries. AKL29 shows a significant lipase activity (45 U/mL) towards hydrolyzed triacylglycerols, indicating that it is a true lipase. For maximum lipase production the modeling and optimization of potential culture parameters such as incubation temperature, cultivation time, and Tween 80 (v/v) were built using RSM and ANN approaches. The results show that both the two models provided good quality predictions, yet the ANN showed a clear superiority over RSM for both data fitting and estimation capabilities. A 4.1-fold increase in lipase production was recorded under the following optimal condition: incubation temperature (37.9 °C), cultivation time (111 h), and Tween 80 (3.27%, v/v). Furthermore, the partially purified lipase showed good stability, high compatibility, and significant wash performance with various commercial laundry detergents, making this novel lipase a promising potential candidate for detergent industries.
The Role of Heuristics in the Reasoning Process of Pre-Service Science Teachers on the “Chemical Structure – Acidity/Basicity Relationship” Topic
Authors: Karakoyun Gülen Önal , Asiltürk Erol
Published: September 2021

The purpose of this research is to examine the effects of 10 heuristics proposed by Talanquer on the reasoning processes of science teacher candidates on the “chemical structure – acidity-basicity relationship” topic. In this phenomenographic research, interviews were conducted with 30 prospective teachers enrolled in the Science Education Program, Education Faculty, Firat University in the spring semester of the 2018–2019 academic year. In the first stage of the two-stage interview, the participants were asked to rank some chemical compounds according to their increasing acidity strength, while in the second stage, they were asked to rank some chemical compounds according to their increasing basicity strength. In the interviews, participants were also asked to explain in detail the reasons for their ranking. From the answers given by the participants to the questions, six different answer patterns were obtained for acidity strength, while five different answer patterns were obtained for basicity strength. It was determined that all ten heuristics affect the reasoning of the participants, and because of the effects of heuristics, students generally use shortcut strategies instead of scientific reasoning. In addition, this study revealed that although it was not included in the model proposed by Talanquer, periodic trends heuristic also affected the reasoning of the participants on the “chemical structure – acidity/basicity relationship”.
Quantification of Hydroperoxides by Gas Chromatography with Flame Ionisation Detection

Published: September 2021

Hydroperoxides are of great importance in the fields of atmospheric and biological chemistry. However, there are several analytical challenges in their analysis: unknown and usually low UV absorption coefficients, high reactivity, thermal instability, and a lack of available reference standards. To overcome these limitations, we propose a GC-FID approach involving pre-column silylation and quantification via the effective carbon number approach. Four hydroperoxides of α-pinene were synthesized in the liquid phase with singlet oxygen and identified using literature data on isomer yield distribution, MS spectra, estimated boiling temperatures of each isomer (retention time), their thermal stability and derivatisation rate. The developed procedure was used for the determination of hydroperoxides in bottled and autooxidised turpentine. We anticipate that this method could also be applied in atmospheric chemistry, where the reactivity of singlet oxygen could help explain the high formation rates of secondary organic aerosols.

Introduction: Endometrial cancer is one of the most common cancers in women worldwide. Theunderlying cause of endometrial tumorigenesis remains elusive. Several genetic and epigeneticalterations are known to be involved in the carcinogenesis of endometrial carcinoma. One importantand early epigenetic alteration that is attributed to endometrial carcinoma is the aberrant promoterhypermethylation of gene promoters. In this study, we have assessed the aberrant promoterhypermethylation of APC and BRCA1 in 78 endometrial cancer samples. Methods: Histologicallyconfirmed tumour tissue samples were obtained post-surgery and DNA was extracted. The DNA wassubjected to sodium bisulfite conversion and used as a template for a polymerase chain reaction.The PCR was performed using a nested PCR followed by methylation specific PCR. Results: A33.33% and 46.15% methylation frequency was observed for APC and BRCA1 genes respectively. Ahigher percentage of methylation was observed in stage IV for APC (66.66%) and in stage II forBRCA1 (88.88%). Conclusion: Aberrant promoter hypermethylation is an early event inendometrial carcinoma and can serve as a useful molecular marker for diagnosis and prognosis ofthe disease along with existing screening modalities.

Authors: Mikryukov V. A.
Published: September 2021

The purpose of the paper is to show how actively and effectively the mechanism of analogy of law is used in modern practice of applying civil legislation. Based on the analysis of judicial acts in specific cases, the author substantiates the conclusion concerning the regularity of the expansion of the application of the analogy of law in judicial practice. The importance of using this mechanism to ensure the absence of gaps in law is demonstrated not only for the administration of justice, but also for effective civil law regulation of the continuously developing economic relations of organizationally and property-separated enterprising participants (subjects). The author substantiates a new view on the correlation between the increase in the volume and detail of the normative material and the level of civil legal certainty and with the degree of demand for the analogy of law in the activities of law enforcement officers. It is proposed to keep selecting and examining specific examples of the use of the analogy of law in the resolution of civil disputes in order to provide generalizations and explanations of the practice of direct application of the principles of civil legislation at the level of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation.

Como resultados, propõe-se uma planilha de Revisão Interacional que pode ser adaptada e utilizada na escola, além de refletir acerca do processo de produção e de reescrita textual.
Língua portuguesa em sua variedade padrão: estudo de caso num folhetim eletrônico
Authors: Menezes Hugo Lenes
Published: September 2021

A linguagem verbal não é um bloco homogêneo. Ao lado dos seus registros, os quais simplificadamente correspondem à formalidade e à informalidade, apresenta-se sob a forma de variedades históricas ou temporais; geográficas ou espaciais; etárias ou de idade e sociais ou culturais. Nessas últimas, inserimos a chamada norma culta, que, por uma convenção, é reconhecida como a variedade padrão, da qual fazemos uso como emissores ou receptores. Assim sendo e considerando o nosso idioma vernáculo, temos aqui por objetivo empreender uma abordagem da variedade padrão, ilustrando-a mediante uma amostra de ocorrências comunicativas, que, colhidas num folhetim eletrônico brasileiro, possuem as suas raízes no português ibérico, ou europeu. Para tanto, juntamente aos filólogos Erich Auerbach e Aires da Mata Machado Filho, estudiosos da gramática tradicional, como Wagner da Rocha Sena e Jânia Martins Ramos, os linguistas Ferdinand de Saussure, Joaquim Mattoso Câmara Júnior e Leonor Scliar-Cabral embasaram o presente artigo.

Authors: Módolo Marcelo , Madeira Maria de Fátima Nunes
Published: September 2021

Este artigo pretende verificar o funcionamento do emprego das vírgulas no texto da carta régia de 1755, documento que constituirá o primeiro corpus da pesquisa, e relacionar esse uso com dois tratados ortográficos, que formarão o segundo corpus: Regras da língua portuguesa, espelho da língua latina, de Argote (1725); e Orthographia, ou arte de escrever; e pronunciar com acerto a língua portuguesa, de Madureira Feijó (1734). Todavia, por se tratar de um manuscrito, primeiramente destacaremos suas propriedades filológicas, tarefa imprescindível para se endossar o documento como autêntico e original, e assim disponibilizá-lo como fonte segura para pesquisas das diversas áreas do conhecimento.

An Investigation into Architectural Creolization of West African Vernacular Mosques
Authors: Ghanbari Javid
Published: September 2021

In investigating the influence of religious thoughts on architecture, much attention has been given to divine world-wide religions by the researchers, while indigenous religions have to a great extent been neglected. Ancient tribes in different parts of the world, have, on the basis of their cosmology, shaped beliefs which reflect on their architecture, especially on their sacred buildings. Regarding the Dogons-a well-known and a dominant tribe in West Africa- their Gods, cosmology and beliefs have led to the formation of settlements comprising houses, temples and other types of buildings in accordance with their religious thoughts while also being in harmony with nature. Up on the expansion of Islam throughout Africa, especially West Africa, vernacular mosques are shaped gradually beside shrines making a typology of Islamic architecture which has traces of both Dogon and Islamic architecture within it; While the influence of natural materials and indigenous building techniques should not be neglected. Taking a descriptive-deductive analysis approach, this paper will search for the architectural creolization process and will eventually conclude that West African vernacular mosques inherit their formal and spatial features mostly from Dogon house and pioneer mosques in Medina and their physical features, elements and exterior decorations from Dogon temples.

UPN “Veteran” Jakarta is a university that has fulfilled the requirements on consideration of becoming a state-owned university as proposed by the Ministry of Culture and Education. Out of three considerations for the conversion of private university to a state university, the UPN “Veteran” Jakarta has fulfilled two considerations. Which is that the UPN “Veteran” Jakarta has something novel that can’t be offered by any other universities as the university based on state defense ideas. State defense is an effort by every citizen in defending its nation, where it’s realized in form of patriotism and willingness to sacrifice. Leadership in general terms are the ability or the capability to influence others in order to achieve a certain goal. It is a trait innate in every leader which constituted of: personality, capability, and willingness. Leadership is a sequence of activities done by the leader that can’t be separated from its position, style, and the attitude of said leader. As well as their interaction with the followers and the situation related to. Based on the stated background our team will resume the research by exploring further how urgent it is the value of state defense in enacting the leadership role.

The present article tries to answer this question: From the point of view Qur’an, what are the factors that develop safety? The Qur’an is a book that guides and expresses all the things that have been revealed from God for the benefit and inquest of human beings. This research has used the Qur’an and thematic analysis method has been used to analyze the data. Thematic analysis is one of the common and efficient methods in qualitative research, converting diverse and scattered data into strong and formal data. After the inquiry, 21 safety factors were identified, which are divided into two parts: personal and institutional. The findings of this study show that the most important personal factors found are ritual and moral-psychological factors, and the most important institutional factors are political and social factors.

Published: September 2021

The principle of calculation of a plate from a metamaterial with inductive type chiral inclusions is submitted. It is shown that distribution of an electromagnetic wave to such substance can be investigated with the help of introduction of a chiral parameter and on the basis of a detailed method of calculation. By comparison of two methods the dependence of chiral parameter from frequency of electromagnetic radiation falling on a plate is found. With the help of a detailed method the nonlinear differential equation for potential on the chiral plate is found. It is shown that this equation has solutions as traveling solitary and standing waves but not traveling sine waves. The analysis of the received solutions of the nonlinear equation is carried out. Transition from the multiwave solution to the solution as standing waves is graphically shown at reduction ofdistance between the chiral elements.

Published: September 2021

Purpose of the study: This paper primarily aims to recognize, develop, and examine the impacts of spouses’ education and maternal health status in cooperation with a variety of other covariates (demographic, social, economic, cultural, and attitudinal) on fertility in Pakistan.

Methodology: This study mainly aimed to discover how spouse’s education and maternal health inputs help in controlling high fertility using four data sets of Pakistan Demographic and Health Survey (1990-91, 2006-07, 2012-13 and 2017-18) through count data model (Poisson regression).

Main Findings: Our empirical results proved the hypotheses that educated spouses and healthy mothers practice family planning tools (contraceptives) to lower down the total fertility rates.

Application of this study: Educated husband and wife will keep their family size smaller to devote more on children’s nutrition, health, and education. In general, rise in intentional birth control method make the education policy more helpful in reducing fertility. Findings draw government attention for embarking on public enlightenment campaigns to generate wakefulness regarding the long-term significance of fertility regulation in Pakistan.

Novelty/Originality: The study is one of its kind because it attempted to explore the link among spouse’s education, maternal health inputs, and child’s health outcomes with fertility that could be used to benchmark for additional research in Pakistan.
Diametric splitting tests on unsaturated expansive soil with different dry densities based on particle image velocimetry technique

Published: September 2021

There is a close relationship between tensile strength of soil and crack development, but the tensile stress-strain in full failure process is rarely studied because challenges exist in accurately measuring shear strain using traditional methods. In this paper, we employed a newly developed diametric splitting testing apparatus and particle image
velocimetry (PIV) system to study the tensile strength of compacted unsaturated expansive soil with different water contents and initial dry densities. Soil water characteristic curves of compacted expansive soil with different initial dry densities were determined using the filter paper method. Test results show that the tensile strength increases first and then decreases with increasing water content, and there is a critical water content for the peak load vs. water content curve. The diametric splitting test process can be divided into four stages on the basis of the plotted load-displacement curves: a stress contact adjustment stage (I); stress approximately linear increasing stage (II); tensile failure stage (III); and residual stage (IV). Under the same water content, the angle between the major directions of the displacement vector and the major crack decreases with increasing the dry density, especially when the fissure appears. Using the particle image velocimetry technique, the displacement and strain during the test process recorded is helpful for better understanding the soil failure mechanism.
