Published: May 2022

This study describes the simple and facile fabrication of silica-tagged magnetic nanostructures (Si@MNs) applied as a nanocatalyst to degrade Rhodamine-B (Rh-B) Dye from the real water samples. Fabricated material has been characterized by using different modern analytical techniques such FT-IR, SEM, XRD, ZS, ZP. According to a morphological study, the fabricated material contains a hexagonal, monoclinic shape and 68 nm in size after successful fabrication and characterization. The catalytic material has been used to degrade the Rh-B Dye. Various parameters have been optimized, such as the effect of reducing agent (NaBH4), impact of dye volume, and influence of catalyst dose to achieve the highest percentage of degradation. At optimal conditions, we get a good percentage of degradation up to 85% having good reproducibility. Fabricated catalyst has been successfully applied for actual water samples.

Published: May 2022

In the present study, the reaction process of H2S removal by calcined phosphate ore slurry was investigated by XRD and kinetics analysis. It was found that the absorption amount of H2S was 69.47 mg in 200 min, and 70.09% of the absorption caused by calcium oxide, indicating that the reaction was mainly the action of calcium oxide. Furthermore, it is showed that Fe2O3 played an important role in the removal process. Fe(III) can be dissolved form the phosphate ore, and became an efficiently catalytic oxidant. H2S can be catalytically oxidized by Fe(III)/Fe(II) system. It was indicated that about 30% removal of H2S was caused by Fe(III). By the model analysis, the leaching reaction was belonged to the diffusion chemical reaction mixing control model. And the activation energy of the reaction was 17.224 kJ/mol obtained from the Arrhenius equation, which further proved that the reaction belonged to the mixed control model.

Authors: Baghel Madhuri , Badwaik Hemant , Patil Sangeeta
Published: May 2022

Oxalis Carniculata Linn belonging to Oxalidaceae family is a small herb with variety of biological activity. The leaves of Oxalis Carniculata was extracted with different solvents and the fractions were screened for antioxidant potential using in-vitro methods such as 2, 2-Diphenyl-2-Picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) and H2O2 radical scavenging activity, and reducing power assay. Total flavonoid, phenolic content and total antioxidant capacity were determined spectrophotometrically. Among the six different fractions ethanolic fraction exhibited highest total flavonoid content (224.2±0.25 mg/g QAE) and methanolic fraction exhibited highest phenolic content (184.31±0.14 mg/g GAE) and total antioxidant capacity (232.79±0.17mg/g AAE). Further methanolic fraction showed highest DPPH and H2O2 radical scavenging activity with IC50 value 23.43±0.12 and 19.71±0.16 respectively. The major cause of skin photoaging is exposure to ultraviolet light that is coupled with the increased expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and decreased collagen synthesis. MMPs (especially MMP-1, MMP-3 and MMP-9) expressions are associated with the decreased elasticity of the dermis due to collagen degradation. In the present study, we have assessed the antioxidant effects of Oxalis Carniculata extract, correlated it with skin photoaging and postulated its mechanism of action by molecular docking study. The molecular docking study of flavones present in O. Carniculata revealed that the phyto-constituents of O. Carniculata species have similar mechanism of binding to that of standard drug with MMP-9 inhibitory action. These results can facilitate the further preclinical models, and clinical study upon skin protective potential against UV-induced skin aging of the O. Carniculata flavones.

Published: May 2022

Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is defined as painful menstrual flow in teenagers who have no other gynaecological symptoms. High absenteeism to school and work have been reported in women with primary dysmenorrhea. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and low dose oral contraceptive pills (OCPs) are the conventional treatment for primary dysmenorrhea. Despite their effectiveness, various side effects hinder the patients away from long time management with conventional treatment. Various polyherbal formulation have been used for centuries in the management of primary dysmenorrhea. However, scientific evidence of its mechanism of action and clinical effectiveness are scarce. A summarised overview of the molecular pathogenesis of the primary dysmenorrhea has been provided to understand the mechanistic pathway involved in primary dysmenorrhea. A total of 8 polyherbal formulations have been included. Pre-clinical and clinical trials of polyherbal formulation commonly used in primary dysmenorrhea have been discussed in this review to provide a picture of the current practice of traditional medicines in the management of primary dysmenorrhea. Most of the preparations demonstrated their actions through regulation of inflammatory markers and hormones in vivo. Inconsistency in sample size, doses of herbal preparation and primary outcomes of clinical trials created controversial findings on the effectiveness of the polyherbal preparation in human.

In order to maintain a healthy body weight, regular exercise accompanied with a healthy diet is very important, and whey protein is a perfect source of fulfilling the protein requirements of the body. Whey is obtained majorly from milk which is formed by the production of cheese. Milk is the major source of whey as it comprises 20% of the total constituent of milk. Whey protein is a high-quality protein with a rich amino acid profile. It contains the broad spectrum of amino acids that includes essential amino acids (EAAs) and branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) which are important in the growth and repair of tissues. Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine are the amino acids that play a major role in BCAA in protein synthesis and has recently been identified as playing role in muscle building and increase in the hormonal growth. It is easy to digest as compared to other components of milk like casein and has no fat content in it which makes it possible to help in gaining lean muscle mass in the body. These are one of the many advantages of consuming whey for which its demand in the market is rising. .Despite numerous advantages it can show some side effects like kidney problems, indigestion, bloating, etc. So it is advisable to consume it after consulting with a physician or some health expert in a specific dosage for a period of time.

Published: May 2022

Harvest losses (10-30%) in wheat represents one of the major factors affecting grain yield. these losses may be during harvesting and/or threshing operations. Although combined harvester is gaining popularity however, In most parts of Pakistan, wheat crop is still manually harvested and then mechanically threshed. Therefore, the current study was conducted on Latif farm of Sindh Agriculture University, Tando Jam to evaluate the harvest losses during the manual harvesting and threshing operations in wheat. Three popular wheat varieties (SKD-1, TJ-83 & KIRAN-95) were selected for this study. Wheat crop was manually harvested and then harvest losses were estimated by harvest losses were estimated on the basis of collection and analysis of leftover / spilled earth head in the freshly harvested field. Threshing losses were estimated by calculating the proportions of broken, unbroken grains and unthreshed ear heads. The study focused on harvesting and threshing operations and their impacts on crop production. The study depicted that harvesting operation was performed manually and threshing by tractor threshing charges were 05 and 10 percent of the crop production respectively while harvesting losses were high at the time of 16 percent due to over drying and unskilled labors used in the field. Technological advancements in agriculture machinery led to reduce the harvesting and threshing losses and therefore, the study suggested that necessary steps of mechanized operation may be taken for minimizing the losses.

Published: May 2022

亞洲、女性、藝術，在當代藝術領域中是否有其特殊的交集領域？因接受西方訊息較早，日本的各式女性主義在1868年明治維新期間已啓動。隨現代化進程，真正具理論的女性主義藝術，則要等到1990年代以後才出現。自1990年代至2020年代，當代藝術中的東瀛女性自我形象轉向，成為亞洲女性藝術運動中的一個經典引例。這些不同生命處境的個體藝術家如何分別呈現亞洲女性藝術家的集體社會處境？其作品是否具有亞洲性或日本性的代表特質？她們又以那些美學呈現而受到國際矚目？從國際展中的東瀛性別意識、流行文化中的他者滿足形象、少女哪吒的投射世界、賽柏格式的神魔身體想像這四個區塊觀察，日本女性的身體能量之自覺與開發，在個人與群體意識上，均提供了強烈的傳統與現代之衝突，並在物語與靈幻的文化體系中，長出具異質的、多重性的自我形象。本論將從國際雙年展之參與脈絡，與藝術市場中的萌文化、腐文化之品味，提出日本女性藝術中的身體能量轉換，以及在消費文化、物化世界、後女性主義、虛擬本體論中所佔的位置，與其年代上的外延影響。

 

From the 1990s to the 2020s, the self-image of Japanese women in contemporary art became significant in Asian women’s art movements. How do individual artists from different life situations present collective social situations? Do those related artworks have representative qualities of Asian or Japanese characteristics in their time? What aesthetics have they brought to international attention? Observed from the following four blocks: 1) gender consciousness in international exhibitions; 2) the images of other-satisfaction in popular culture; 3) the reflecting worlds of the maiden Nezha; and 4) the digital imagining of the body of the god and demon，they all reveal that the realization and development of their bodily energy , and provide a strong conflict between tradition and modernity in terms of individual and group consciousness. In the traditional Japanese monologue and spiritual cultural system, figurations of Japanese women gradually develop a heterogeneous and multiplicity of self-image in the art world. Using the above four aspects, this paper will examine the transformation of bodily energy in Japanese women’s art from the context of participation in the International Biennale, the cute culture in the art market, and the taste of rotten culture. Through its position in consumer culture, materialized world, post-feminism, and virtual ontology, it will explore the transformation of the Japanese female figure in contemporary art and its extended influence on the era.

Authors:   Instituto Superior de Ciencias de la Educación del Estado de México, Garcia Vega Juan
Published: May 2022

En este artículo se presenta un análisis comprensivo-interpretativo sobre cómo los docentes de un centro de bachillerato tecnológico recuperan el sentido pedagógico del trabajo colegiado a través de la modalidad de academia en un contexto donde existe la presión institucional por cumplir con lo administrativo conforme a la normatividad vigente. Se enfatiza en los rasgos del trabajo colegiado que se desarrolla en la institución, así como en las alternativas que los docentes han implementado al margen de la organización institucional para recuperar el sentido pedagógico del trabajo colegiado por academias para hacer frente a la instrumentalización a la que han sometido a la colegialidad por parte de las autoridades educativas. En ese tenor el objetivo de la investigación es comprender cómo las academias recuperan el sentido pedagógico del trabajo colegiado en el contexto institucional instrumentalizado. Este análisis se realiza a partir de la revisión teórica, las experiencias, los conocimientos previos y las discusiones suscitadas durante el proceso de investigación, así como de la información empírica obtenida, a través de las entrevistas a profundidad aplicadas a algunos docentes. Como parte de las conclusiones, se establece que la recuperación del sentido pedagógico del trabajo colegiado ha sido a través del trabajo en academia, independientemente de que las condiciones contextuales e institucionales ejercen una presión por el cumplimiento de lo administrativo, por lo que los docentes han implementado estrategias más allá de la organización institucional para trabajar lo académico.

Published: May 2022

Problem: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was declared a pandemic on 11 March 2020. Severe illness requires intensive care facilities, which are limited in smaller, resource-constrained settings. Context: Maldives and Trinidad and Tobago are small island developing states with comparable climates. Similar to island nations in the Western Pacific Region, they are prone to natural disasters and so engage in planning and preparedness activities on an ongoing basis. This paper describes the initial measures taken by both countries during the first wave of COVID-19, from March to May 2020. Action: In both countries, multisectoral high-level leadership allowed for timely and decisive actions. Early school closures, early border closures and early lockdowns were enforced. Mandatory mask wearing and physical distancing were instituted. Cases and contacts were isolated in facilities away from public sector hospitals, and isolation was implemented at the government’s expense. Volunteers were trained to manage dedicated hotlines. Additionally, the governments held daily press briefings. Outcome: During the first wave, Maldives contained its epidemic to one geographical cluster; Trinidad and Tobago successfully avoided community spread, thus averting an overwhelmed health system. Discussion: Diligent contact tracing with quarantine implemented at the government’s expense successfully minimized spread in both countries. Small countries need volunteers to help with activities such as contact tracing, and recruiting and training volunteers before a health emergency occurs is key. Lessons learned from the experience of Maldives and Trinidad and Tobago could serve as a model for other small island developing states, including those in the Western Pacific Region.

Published: May 2022

This research explored the impact of cultural differences using LINE application as a communication channel toward the components of employee engagement. This research added more contributions to using LINE application and employee engagement which found that both factors--job demands and employee support--are associated positively with the intensity of social media use. The survey data were gathered from 300 Thai lecturers and 300 Chinese lecturers from a private university in Thailand. Partial least squares structural equation modeling was employed for data analysis. The results from the regression analysis showed that the LINE app used for personal related internal communication has negative effects on vigor, dedication and absorption for the Thai respondents. As for the Chinese respondents, it has positive effects on vigor, dedication and absorption. This means that in the Chinese context the more they are engaged with their personal whereabouts the more active they are in the workplace.

Published: May 2022

A levedura Candida auris é um comensal comum do trato gastrointestinal de humanos, embora já tenha sido isolada em outros locais do corpo (como pele e unhas). Além disso, é descrito como um fungo oportunista e multirresistente do filo Ascomycota, que foi identificado pela primeira vez em 2009, no Japão. Destaca-se que a taxa de mortalidade dos pacientes infectados varia entre 30 e 72%, fato preocupante que enfatiza a importância do controle dessa. O estudo em questão tem como objetivo principal, através de uma revisão bibliográfica sistemática, descrever as infecções originadas pela Candida auris, levantando as principais informações para esclarecimento de um possível cenário pandêmico. Desta forma, abordando as principais formas de contágio, sua fisiopatologia, e a relevância do seu diagnóstico para detecção e intervenção da infecção no cenário pandêmico da COVID-19, a fim de inspirar estratégias para a redução significativa da incidência. O levantamento bibliográfico foi baseado em artigos das respectivas bases de dados: PubMed, MEDLINE, Scielo e Elsevier, seguindo como critério de inclusão a relevância do artigo relacionado ao tema, publicados nos últimos 5 anos (com exceções de trabalhos altamente relevantes e clássicos), nos idiomas português e inglês. Após a ascensão do SARS-CoV-2, o número de casos envolvendo C. auris aumentaram em todo o mundo, ambos foram identificados em superfícies de ambientes hospitalares, incluindo grades de proteção, postes de soro, leitos, dutos de ar-condicionado, janelas e pisos, implicando em possíveis nichos de colonização da levedura, e, consequentemente, possíveis infecções em pacientes contaminados com o coronavírus que utilizem aparelhos de ventilação mecânica e ventiladores de manejo assistido. A associação entre COVID-19 e infecções fúngicas pode ser multifatorial em decorrência da gravidade da doença e uso prévio de antibióticos e corticoides que tem efeito imunossupressor sobre neutrófilos e macrófagos. Diante da escassez de informações sobre a relação entre C. auris e COVID-19, fica evidente a necessidade de novos estudos no Brasil e no Mundo, no intuito de fortalecer a atenção dada pelos órgãos responsáveis ao rastreamento do patógeno.

A AUTOMEDICAÇÃO NO BRASIL E A ATENÇÃO FARMACÊUTICA NO USO RACIONAL DE MEDICAMENTOS
Authors: Ruiz Ana Carolina
Published: May 2022

Os medicamentos são utilizados no mundo todo tanto para prevenção de doenças quanto para a recuperação da saúde. No entanto quando os medicamentos são utilizados sem prescrição de profissionais habilitados constitui-se a automedicação. A Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS) estima que mais da metade de todos os medicamentos são prescritos, dispensados ou vendidos de forma inadequada, e que metade de todos os pacientes não os utiliza corretamente. No Brasil a automedicação está relacionada com a dificuldade de acesso ao serviço de saúde, demora e baixa qualidade dos serviços prestados. Como profissional da saúde o farmacêutico, possui papel imprescindível na instrução e na orientação do paciente e na utilização correta dos fármacos, visto que a sociedade utiliza a farmácia como primeira escolha para tratar vários problemas de saúde. O uso irracional de medicamentos é um problema de saúde mundial, porém, pouco se sabe sobre o real impacto na sociedade. Neste trabalho realizou-se um levantamento bibliográfico com foco no uso racional de medicamentos e atenção farmacêutica. Pesquisou-se os artigos nas bases de dados Lilacs, Scielo, Medline, Pubmed e Google Acadêmico. Para tal estudo, traçou-se como objetivo compreender a importância da atuação do farmacêutico na promoção do uso racional de medicamentos. A Atenção Farmacêutica é focada diretamente no usuário e não nos medicamentos, nesse sentido, os farmacêuticos desempenham um papel-chave no atendimento das necessidades do indivíduo e da sociedade ao conscientizá-los quanto a importância do uso correto dos medicamentos, garantindo a segurança e a eficácia dos mesmos.

La industria de la construcción de madera genera grandes volúmenes de residuos tales como ripio, colocho, aserrín, etc., que no están siendo aprovechados ya que con ellos podemos hacer o terminar un determinado producto, en virtud de botarlos, quemarlos o venderlos. Este estudio tiene como finalidad caracterizar los residuos de madera generados en talleres de carpintería del municipio de Camoapa. La investigación fue de tipo no experimental, para la recolección y análisis de la información primaria se aplicó encuesta semiestructurada a los dueños de diez talleres de carpintería. Las variables evaluadas fueron: residuos de la madera, uso de los residuos y alternativas de uso. Los datos fueron analizados utilizando distribución de frecuencia e histogramas, para el diseño de alternativas la matriz DAFO (Debilidades, Amenazas, Fortalezas, Oportunidades). Se encontró que los tipos de residuos de madera generados son el aserrín en mayor cantidad, polvo, recortes y colochos en menor porcentaje, son recolectados semanalmente y en ocasiones a diario. El volumen de residuos generados por tiempo de limpieza oscila entre 2 kg y 9 kg. El 60 % de los talleres realizan selección de los desechos producidos, quienes no lo hacen argumentan que no pueden perder su tiempo en esa tarea. El 50 % de los talleres de carpinterías utilizan los residuos para complementar piezas de otros productos, en cambio, el otro porcentaje lo venden a las amas de casa y las caballerizas. Los precios de venta van desde los USD 0.031 a USD 0.093 el kg. El 90 % de los dueños de talleres de carpinterías afirmaron tener interés en ser capacitados para aprovechar los residuos de madera. En conclusión, los residuos generados en los talleres de carpinterías no son aprovechados, no se realiza selección y almacenamiento, todos se encuentran mezclados en un solo lugar. Una alternativa es usarlos para elaborar subproductos, desde una perspectiva empresarial que genere divisas y disminuya los costos de producción.
Introduction: Examining Gender Issues and Political Change in the Contemporary Middle East through an Intersectionality Lens
Authors: Saber Barakat Kholoud
Published: May 2022

This special Issue of Rowaq Arabi captures the multi-layered changes in the gender politics of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region following the Arab Uprisings of 2011. It employs a critical gender lens to engage with several timely questions concerning the presence of women in the public sphere while examining emerging discourses on gender issues in the region. It presents a general framework that engages with the theoretical understanding of Arab women’s activism and the representation of women’s agency in relation to the Arab Uprisings. In addition, it looks into the Moroccan, Egyptian, and Syrian cases, highlighting the unique and changing underlying dynamics of their political, legal, and social contexts while examining the reflections of these dynamics on women’s mobilisation for equality and rights. A main conclusion reached in the issue is as follows: Despite the complexity and multidimensionality of dynamics determining progress in women’s lived realities following the Arab Uprisings, there is a marked rise in gender consciousness in the region. Furthermore, the research papers in this issue underscore that women’s political and social engagement since the uprisings has already produced new discourses and tools while creating greater opportunities for future change.

During the circulation of drugs within the multidisciplinary organizational and legal, forensic and pharmaceutical, medical and immunological researches in the organization and management of pharmaceutical competencies, a comparative analysis of the cost of pharmacotherapy in the relief of alcoholism to determine the most cost-effective treatment regimen. Two modern schemes of pharmacotherapy for relief of drunken forms of alcohol dependence were developed. During the circulation of medicines, eleven drugs were selected for the main group and ten drugs for the control group. Organized a comparative analysis of the cost of basic pharmacotherapy in the relief of alcoholic dependence to determine the most cost-effective treatment regimen. Found that the cost of the basic pharmacotherapy scheme for the experimental group of patients is 40% cheaper than the basic pharmacotherapy scheme for the control group. It was established that the scheme of the course of pharmacotherapy in the relief of alcoholic addictions for the research group is more effective, safer, economical and has fewer side effects on the patient's body.
Metaphysical Doctrines of the Anlo of Ghana and Process Philosophy
Authors: Adzogble Roseline Elorm
Published: May 2022

Concepts of mutual interdependence, process, creative advance, and God occupy key areas in the philosophy of Alfred North Whitehead. Process metaphysics lays emphasis on a naturalism of rigorous rational and empirical methodology with far-reaching implications. Process thinkers have compared Whiteheadian thought to Buddhism, Christianity, and many other religions. However, African religious beliefs have yet to be considered in this area of study. Based on the gap in the literature, this article attempts to reconcile such seemingly different spheres. First, I offer an account of Whitehead's process metaphysics regarding the concepts mentioned above. Second, I argue that nonconventional sources of African philosophy offer conceptual understandings of philosophies of African groups and their place in the metaphysical debate. Third, I discuss these key areas of process thought in Anlo traditional pragmatic philosophy. I illustrate their like-mindedness with process metaphysics through language, religious rites, and historical accounts. I conclude that, although process philosophy overlaps in prominent areas with Anlo belief systems, questions regarding the causal nature of God distinguish the Anlo conception of divinity from that of process philosophy.
The Dipolar Character of Being in Plato and Whitehead
Authors: Dombrowski Daniel A.
Published: May 2022

It has often been noticed that Plato's metaphysical view of being is dipolar. The purpose of the present article is to detail what it means to say that being is dipolar in Plato. Further, I will explore the extent to which dipolarity in Whitehead is indebted to Plato and the extent to which Whitehead's dipolarity is different from Plato's. In this regard I will concentrate on Whitehead's recently published Harvard Lectures.
Performance of field crops along with four tree species in Coastal Tamil Nadu
Authors: Immanuel R. , Ganapathy M.
Published: May 2022

Coastal agroecosystems are usually characterized by saline sandy soils with low fertility and crop productivity. An integrated approach with the inclusion of silviculture with crop cultivation is important to maintaining the soil fertility and crop productivity. Agrisilvicultural System is one of the alternative land use systems by which both woody perennials and agricultural crops are grown simultaneously in degraded lands. Hence an agrisilvicultural study was initiated to determine the effect of tree species on the yield of inter crops at Portnova region of Tamil Nadu. Four woody perennials were established during October 2003 and five field crops were raised in the interspaces of trees during 2003 to 2005 in split plot design. Grain yield of all crop components were affected by trees. Among the woody perennials, the maximum tree growth was observed in Eucalyptus tereticornis. followed by Casuarina equisetifolia Anacardium occidentale and Moringa oleifera. Grain production was found to be the best from the interspaces of Moringa oleifera and Anacardium occidentale. The cause might be due to less light interception of canopies due to wider spacing of trees and able to extract less amount of moisture from the rhizosphere zone of crop components. The lowest yields of field crops were obtained in association with Eucalyptus tereticornis due to more moisture absorption by this tree.
RAÇA, GÊNERO E INTERSECCIONALIDADE: OS SENTIDOS DE MULHER NEGRA DO LIVRO DIDÁTICO ÀS CAPAS DE REVISTA
Authors: Costa Júlia Bomfim
Published: May 2022

Há séculos atrás, quando as mulheres não tinham voz ativa na sociedade, diversas lutas foram travadas para que pudessem ter o direito de serem respeitadas com igualdade perante os homens. Dentre essas mulheres, existia ainda um grupo que se destacava nessa luta ao reivindicar não apenas igualdade de gênero, mas brigavam também pela igualdade de raça. Essa problemática se constitui, conforme mulheres negras têm seu discurso silenciado ao longo da história pela sobreposição dos interesses racistas do movimento de mulheres e intenções sexistas do movimento negro. Sob essa perspectiva, percebe-se a necessidade de se entender como esse embate de opressões se constituem no atual cenário em que vivemos e como o cruzamento de tais marcadores identitários operam juntos. Dessa forma, nosso objetivo geral é entender como os sentidos de mulher negra e o funcionamento do político são constituídos no livro didático e nas revistas voltadas para o público feminino, os quais constituem o nosso corpus. Assim, temos como pergunta de trabalho: como os sentidos de mulher negra se constituem diante da intersecção entre raça e gênero? Para nortear os caminhos para responder essa questão, partimos da hipótese de que há um duplo lugar para a mulher negra, enquanto raça e gênero, ocupando uma dupla discriminação. Para o desenvolvimento da pesquisa, fundamentamos esse trabalho a partir dos pressupostos teóricos da Semântica do Acontecimento, teoria semântica enunciativa que parte da premissa de que os sentidos são constituídos na enunciação, numa relação da língua com a própria língua, enquanto algo que é tomado na temporalidade do acontecimento. Sendo assim, o acontecimento de linguagem instaura sentidos porque é afetado pelo político que instala o conflito no centro do dizer, estabelecendo uma desigualdade que divide e redivide nos espaços de enunciação.
ANÁLISE ACÚSTICO-ARTICULATÓRIA DE OCLUSIVAS: UM ESTUDO DE CASO EM T21
Authors: Cordeiro Andreia Alves
Published: May 2022

O objetivo geral da pesquisa que resultou esta dissertação foi analisar características acústicas dos segmentos oclusivos /p/, /b/, /t/, /d/, /k/ e /g/ do Português Brasileiro, produzidos por uma pessoa com alterações oromiofuncionais, visando a verificar como as especificidades do trato vocal e as características motoras da produção da fala, apresentadas por um sujeito com síndrome de Down, podem interferir nas características acústicas dos segmentos oclusivos por ele produzidos. A hipótese é de que as alterações impactam nas características acústicas das oclusivas produzidas por esse sujeito. Acredita-se que a hipotonia global do indivíduo compromete o controle e o planejamento motor oral e que isso acarreta na produção inadequada dessas consoantes, oque, consequentemente, altera as características acústicas de tais segmentos. No estudo, foram analisadas, acusticamente, as consoantes oclusivas produzidas por um sujeito com síndrome de Down, doravante SE. Trata-se de um residente de Vitória da Conquista, de 18 anos, do sexo feminino. Para a coleta de dados, foram selecionadas 64 palavras contendo as oclusivas surdas e sonoras (bilabiais, alveolares e velares) em onse tinicial e onset medial, em contexto da vogal [a]. Para a análise acústica, foram mensurados a duração relativa e os 04 (quatro) momentos espectrais dos segmentos oclusivos, por meio do PRAAT (BOERSMA; WEENINCK, 2006).
