Compressing Deep Convolutional Neural Networks by Stacking Low-dimensional Binary Convolution Filters
Authors: Lan Weichao , Lan Liang
Published: September 2022

Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) have been successfully applied to many real-life problems. However, the huge memory cost of deep CNN models poses a great challenge of deploying them on memory-constrained devices (e.g., mobile phones). One popular way to reduce the memory cost of deep CNN model is to train binary CNN where the weights in convolution filters are either 1 or -1 and therefore each weight can be efficiently stored using a single bit. However, the compression ratio of existing binary CNN models is upper bounded by ∼ 32. To address this limitation, we propose a novel method to compress deep CNN model by stacking low-dimensional binary convolution filters. Our proposed method approximates a standard convolution filter by selecting and stacking filters from a set of low-dimensional binary convolution filters. This set of low-dimensional binary convolution filters is shared across all filters for a given convolution layer. Therefore, our method will achieve much larger compression ratio than binary CNN models. In order to train our proposed model, we have theoretically shown that our proposed model is equivalent to select and stack intermediate feature maps generated by low-dimensional binary filters. Therefore, our proposed model can be efficiently trained using the split-transform-merge strategy. We also provide detailed analysis of the memory and computation cost of our model in model inference. We compared the proposed method with other five popular model compression techniques on two benchmark datasets. Our experimental results have demonstrated that our proposed method achieves much higher compression ratio than existing methods while maintains comparable accuracy.

We consider the problem of knowledge transfer when an agent is facing a series of Reinforcement Learning (RL) tasks. We introduce a novel metric between Markov Decision Processes and establish that close MDPs have close optimal value functions. Formally, the optimal value functions are Lipschitz continuous with respect to the tasks space. These theoretical results lead us to a value-transfer method for Lifelong RL, which we use to build a PAC-MDP algorithm with improved convergence rate. Further, we show the method to experience no negative transfer with high probability. We illustrate the benefits of the method in Lifelong RL experiments.
Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Semantic Segmentation by Content Transfer

Published: September 2022

In this paper, we tackle the unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) for semantic segmentation, which aims to segment the unlabeled real data using labeled synthetic data. The main problem of UDA for semantic segmentation relies on reducing the domain gap between the real image and synthetic image. To solve this problem, we focused on separating information in an image into content and style. Here, only the content has cues for semantic segmentation, and the style makes the domain gap. Thus, precise separation of content and style in an image leads to effect as supervision of real data even when learning with synthetic data. To make the best of this effect, we propose a zero-style loss. Even though we perfectly extract content for semantic segmentation in the real domain, another main challenge, the class imbalance problem, still exists in UDA for semantic segmentation. We address this problem by transferring the contents of tail classes from synthetic to real domain. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves the state-of-the-art performance in semantic segmentation on the major two UDA settings.
LRSC: Learning Representations for Subspace Clustering
Authors: Li Changsheng , Yang Chen , Liu Bo , Yuan Ye , Wang Guoren
Published: September 2022

Deep learning based subspace clustering methods have attracted increasing attention in recent years, where a basic theme is to non-linearly map data into a latent space, and then uncover subspace structures based upon the data self-expressiveness property. However, almost all existing deep subspace clustering methods only rely on target domain data, and always resort to shallow neural networks for modeling data, leaving huge room to design more effective representation learning mechanisms tailored for subspace clustering. In this paper, we propose a novel subspace clustering framework through learning precise sample representations. In contrast to previous approaches, the proposed method aims to leverage external data through constructing lots of relevant tasks to guide the training of the encoder, motivated by the idea of meta-learning. Considering limited layer structures of current deep subspace clustering models, we intend to distill knowledge from a deeper network trained on the external data, and transfer it into the shallower model. To reach the above two goals, we propose a new loss function to realize them in a joint framework. Moreover, we propose to construct a new pretext task for self-supervised training of the model, such that the representation ability of the model can be further improved. Extensive experiments are performed on four publicly available datasets, and experimental results clearly demonstrate the efficacy of our method, compared to state-of-the-art methods.

Authors: Singh Kaushalendra Kumar , Kumar Rajesh , Gupta Anjana
Published: September 2022

In this paper a comparative analysis based on multiobjective optimization of a cascade refrigeration system using NH3-CO2 and NH3-N2O refrigerant pairs has been done. Exergetic effciciency and overall cost rate have been taken as the two conflicting objective functions, and evaporator temperature, condenser temperature, LTC condenser temperature, and cascade heat exchanger temperature difference are the four design variables. The optimization work has been carried out using genetic algorithm, which results in a nondominated optimal solution represented in the form of pareto-optimal curve, and the technique for order performance by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) method is used to select a unique solution. The results show that NH3-N2O is a better alternative as compared to NH3-CO2 refrigerant pair from a multiobjective optimization point of view. The corresponding optimal operating conditions have also been suggested for both the refrigerant pairs.
Elastoplastic properties of tribological layers of WC – (Fe – Mn – C) composites formed after high-speed sliding on steel
Authors: Savchenko N. L. , Sevost’yanova I. N. , Tarasov S. Yu.
Published: September 2022

In this work, the authors studied the elastoplastic properties of the formed tribological layers of WC – (Fe – Mn – C) composites with matrices consisting of γ-iron (containing 4 % Mn (WC – 80G20)) and γ + α′ (containing 20 % Mn (WC – 80G4)) after friction on a high-speed steel disk at contact pressure of 5 MPa and sliding speeds in the range from 10 to 37 m/s. It was established that the main factor determining the morphology of the worn surface is sliding speed. At sliding speeds of 10 and 20 m/s, finely dispersed mechanically mixed tribolayers 3 – 4 µm thick are formed. As the sliding speed increases to 30–37 m/s, the thickness of the tribolayers reaches 10 – 15 µm, and the structure consists of oxidized fragments of WC – (Fe – Mn – C) composites and FeWO4 complex oxide and does not have a sharp boundary, like the tribolayers formed at lower sliding speeds. The highest values of nanohardness (~33 GPa) and effective Young’s modulus (~523 GPa) were achieved in the WC – 80G4 tribolayer after friction at 10 m/s when the nanoindenter was embedded into agglomerates of fragmented WC grains. This contrasted with the properties of the tribolayers formed at sliding speeds above 20 m/s. The results of nanoindentation showed an obvious effect of tribochemically induced softening in the emerging tribolayer after high-speed sliding at a speed of 37 m/s. Such a layer had a composite microstructure consisting of fragmented composite components cemented in-situ by tribochemically formed FeWO4 and, in addition to antifriction properties, had an increased indentation fracture resistance.

Published: September 2022

The conducted studies have determined the regularities of influence of rolling parameters of billets and grinding balls in their production from the rejects of K76F rail steel on probability of defects formation during deformation. Modeling of the rolling process of high-grade billets from the rejects of continuously cast ingots of rail steel of the specified grade in DEFORM-2D software package allowed us to establish a significant effect of such parameters as: partial coefficients of drawing along the transfer bar, frequency of rolling edges, and rolling temperature, on the probability of defect formation, characterized by the maximum value of the Cockcroft-Latham criterion in cross section of the rolls. It is shown that an increase in the coefficients of drawing (compression) along the transfer bar, due to intensification of the rolling mode and an increase in frequency of edging, reduces the likelihood of defects forming during rolling by reducing the temperature inhomogeneity along the rolls section. The established effect of temperature increase on reducing the probability of defects formation is due to an increase in plasticity of the considered rail steel. Based on the data obtained, general recommendations are formulated on the directions of improving the rolling modes of billets from the rejects of rail steels and restrictions on their application in practice. Based on the results of modeling the rolling of grinding balls from the rejects of rail steel on a helical rolling mill, a significant effect of an increase in the deformation temperature on reduction of cracking in the balls axial zone, due to an increase in the steel ductility, was established. Therefore, a new mode of rolling grinding balls from the rejects of K76F rail steel was developed, which provides an increase in impact resistance of grinding balls while maintaining high surface hardness. Effectiveness of this mode is confirmed by the results of its pilot testing in conditions of the ball rolling mill at JSC “Guryevskii Metallurgical Plant”.

Exploring tissue morphodynamics using the photoconvertible Kaede protein in amphioxus embryos v1
Authors: Meister Lydvina
Published: September 2022

Photoconvertible proteins are powerful tools widely used in cellular biology to study cell dynamics and organelles. Over the past decade, photoconvertible proteins have also been used for developmental biology applications to analyze cell lineage and cell fate during embryonic development. One of these photoconvertible proteins called Kaede, from the stony coral Trachyphyllia geoffroyi, undergoes irreversible photoconversion from green to red fluorescence when illuminated with UV light. Undertaking a cell tracing approach using photoconvertible proteins can be challenging when using unconventional animal models. In this protocol, we describe the use of Kaede to track specific cells during embryogenesis of the cephalochordate Branchiostoma lanceolatum. This protocol can be adapted to other unconventional models, especially marine animals.

Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most diagnosed cancers worldwide. Chemoprevention of HCC can be achieved using natural or synthetic compounds that reverse, suppress, detect, or prevent cancer progression. OBJECTIVES: In this study, both the antiproliferative effects and luminescent properties of 2’-hydroxychalcones were evaluated. METHODS: Cell viability was evaluated using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) colorimetric assay, spectroscopy assays, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations were used to determine the luminescent properties of 2´-hydroxychalcones. RESULTS: Cytotoxic effects of 2´-hydroxychalcones were observed over the HepG2 and EA.hy926 cells. Since the chalcone moiety could be used as a fluorescent probe, these compounds may be helpful in cancer diagnosis and tumor localization. They may enable tumor observation and regression through the fluorescence during treatment; therefore, the compounds are a potential candidate as novel anticancer agents acting on human hepatomas. CONCLUSIONS: This report describes the chalcones’ use as a specific luminescent biomarker in tumor cells. We also report the cellular uptake of 2’-hydroxychalcones, their cellular distribution, and the mechanisms that may be responsible for their cytotoxic effects.

Authors: HAYTA Neslihan , KAYA Gaye
Published: September 2022

The mechanical properties of sandwich composites are more depended on the core material structure. Damage of the commercial honeycomb core materials are generally occurred as delamination the unit-cells of core material under mechanical or impact loads. In addition, the common feature of commercial core materials is their high-cost. Economic approach of the current researches are led the studies based on the principle of converting ordinary materials into advanced materials. Nowadays, the development of low-cost/high-performance products that serve to reduce environmental impact is an important requirement. In present study, a novel core material is developed for sandwich composites by using a special stitching design. The developed core structure is defined as ‘rhombus core’ which offers a lower cost/higher performance compared to commercial core materials. The compressive behavior of rhombus and commercial core structures are compared. Rhombus cores showed the highest compressive strength and retained their structural integrity after compressive load without any delamination/crushing at stitching regions.

Published: September 2022

The review presents factual data, unguarded digital and qualitative information on cases of infectious diseases and outbreaks of current infections during the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic. Sources of information: materials of the World Health Organization, Centers for Disease Control (USA, European countries), the Federal Service for Supervision of Consumer Protection and Human Well-Being, conferences and scientific reports, etc.
The review deals with the problem of a new epidemiological reality as a complex, complex, open system with the emergence property inherent in such systems ― the emergence of new phenomena that are not equal to the effects of a simple sum of epidemic processes or their driving forces. Unpredictability of the new epidemiological reality ― from a rapid increase in morbidity to reverse development (and vice versa) when integrating new elements (biological, social, technological) into it, it is largely due to the effects of co-identity (mutual influence of sudden phenomena), which requires an in-depth study of the processes occurring at different hierarchical levels of this system for the successful relief of epidemic complications. To conduct research at the level of the infectious process, it is proposed to create a federal specialized scientific and practical clinical medical center with educational and training modules. The scientific research of the center will focus on the study of the characteristic systemic qualities of the infectious process based on knowledge about the properties and relationships between the elements of the system; between the system and the objects of its environment; on diagnosis (including cases of coinfections, superinfections) and identification of modifying and limiting factors in the pathogenetic and clinical manifestation of diseases. The training modules of the center will provide modern opportunities for the training of various professional groups of medical and non-medical specialists (device designers and designers of medical equipment, employees of engineering and operational services of medical institutions) on working under strict anti-epidemic regime, as well as on design tasks, technological preparation for operation and refinement of new models of equipment, means personal protection, consumables.
Thus, a specialized scientific and practical clinical medical center with educational and training modules will become a platform at which, through intersectoral cooperation and interaction, an emergent approach to the formation of an anti-epidemic preparedness strategy of medical organizations will be implemented ― detecting changes in the clinical manifestations of infectious diseases and responding appropriately to future sudden external epidemic challenges.

Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND: Gestational diabetes mellitus is a significant medical and social problem in most countries. Despite the relatively high level of development of modern medicine, following the growth of obesity and type 2 diabetes, the prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus is also increasing worldwide.
AIM: To identify the frequency and structure of carbohydrate metabolism disorders and to compare the level of blood pressure in a random sample of pregnant women registered in the Perinatal center.
MATHERIALS AND METHODS: The analysis of the data of examination of carbohydrate metabolism of pregnant women who are registered in the Perinatal Center (Leningrad region, Gatchina), has been carried out. The analysis of medical documentation, survey, endocrinological and gynecological examination, calculation of the body mass index and the study of carbohydrate metabolism have been carried out.
RESULTS: There is an increase in the number of pregnant women with impaired carbohydrate metabolism over the years of observation. Gestational diabetes on diet therapy was 64.4% in 2019, 31.0% in 2020, 65.1% in 2021, on insulin therapy 32.2, 62.3, 28.9% respectively. There was an increase in the number of women with type 1 and type 2 diabetes diagnosed before pregnancy and newly diagnosed diabetes during pregnancy. Body mass index and blood pressure levels are higher and glycated hemoglobin levels are lower in diet-treated pregnant women with gestational diabetes compared with insulin therapy. An increase in glycated hemoglobin was found annually in a group of women with gestational diabetes mellitus on insulin therapy.
CONCLUSIONS: The high prevalence of carbohydrate metabolism disorders and the associated increase in blood pressure in pregnant women in Saint Petersburg and the Leningrad Region justifies a targeted search for carbohydrate metabolism disorders in pregnant women.
TYPOLOGICAL VARIATION IN ENCODING THE MANNER OF MOTION EVENT IN TRANSLATED VERSIONS OF ENGLISH AND TURKISH SHORT STORIES
Authors: İşler Cemre
Published: September 2022

The aim of this study is to examine how speakers of typologically different languages, Turkish (a verb-framed language, V-language) and English (a satellite-framed language, S-language) express manner of motion events and how each language adapts itself to the demands of the other in translations with regard to the use of manner-of-motion verbs. In this respect, a total of 20 short stories (10 Turkish and 10 English) were selected to analyze. The effort was made to include the ones that are well suited for eliciting manner of motion verbs. For the identification of the motion verbs, Talmy’s (1985) definition of motion events was taken into consideration. According to the results, English writers were found to express manner of motion in their texts at a higher rate with regard to both token and type frequency of manner-of-motion verbs. As far as the translation strategies were considered, it was found that Turkish and English writers mostly used literal translation. In order to adapt the characteristics of the target language, it was also found that translators used a variety of strategies indicating compensation for language requirements.

Authors: Pang Xuelin , Zhang ZhengZe
Published: September 2022

Curling is a sport combining skill and intelligence. Athletes should not only have proficient physical fitness, technical and tactical level, but they also need strong psychological ability. This study attempts to build a special psychological ability system for curling athletes, to provide guidance for the athlete selection and training. In this study, 13 male athletes of Heilongjiang curling team were recruited. HengChan Yin 's attention scale, Dr. Ping Ye's competitive motivation scale, XiaoChuan Yin 's excellent athlete's will quality evaluation scale, Vealey's athlete's trait self-confidence scale, Martens's sports competition state anxiety scale, LiWei Zhang's pre competition emotion scale-t scale, electronic stopwatch and other equipment were used for the test. In order to determine the constituent factors of curling athletes' specialized psychological ability, 11 psychological indexes, such as time and space judgment, speed perception, attention distribution, attention transfer, competitive motivation, will quality, sports competition anxiety, cognitive trait anxiety, self-confidence, attention stability, emotional stability, were analyzed by factor analysis method. The characteristic value, contribution rate and fatigue of the factors were calculated. The results suggested that the first four factors whose characteristic value are greater than 1 and cumulative contribution rate is greater than 80% are selected as the main factors. According to the characteristic value of the first four main factors, the initial factor load matrix is obtained, and the orthogonal factor matrix after rotation is obtained by using variance maximization. The system of special mental ability of curling male athletes consists of four aspects: mental preparation ability, mental state ability, attention ability and space-time judgment ability. There are significant differences in mental preparation ability and mental state ability between the main players and the substitutes. The main players are better than the substitutes.
A Study on the Weakening of Physical Fitness in Physical Education Reform of China
Authors: Zhao Xia , Wang Shuai
Published: September 2022

The Chinese students' physical fitness was weakening from 1985 to 2005. Since 1995, almost all the physical fitness indicators have showed substantial decline over times. This study took this issue as the breakthrough point to examine how the physical education (PE) curriculum reform affected the students’ physical fitness in China. The primary and secondary school physical fitness literature has been reviewed. This study summarized the change of PE reform theory and practice during this period. Using the descriptive statistics, the proportions of physical activity in the PE curriculum of Chinese primary and secondary schools were analyzed. In the reform process of school PE in China from single dimension to multi-dimension, the generalization of PE function has blurred the essential function of physical fitness. The PE curriculum of 1992 in Chinese mandatory education was implemented for ten years. During this period, the economy has developed rapidly, and the curriculum showed a relatively weaken trend. Compared with the past curriculum, the PE curriculum of 1997 in Chinese high school has reduced the requirement of physical activity portion in PE classes. Furthermore, the physical activity and physical fitness evaluation were not paid enough attention in school evaluation and assessment. Due to insufficient course consciousness and ability, PE teachers have weakened the effectiveness of physical activity in PE teaching practice. Compared with the social, economic, and cultural development of China during this period, the reform of PE curriculum showed the weakening trend, which coincided with the tendency of students' physical fitness decline. Physical activity and fitness are the foundations to reach school PE goals. The weakening of physical activity and fitness would lead to the difficulty for students to achieve the objectives of strengthening students' health, cultivating interests and habits, mastering techniques, and improving motor ability in school PE. It is recommended to examine the tendency of continuous weakening of physical fitness in the current reform of PE in China, and take effective measures to improve the impact of insufficient physical activities on students’ physical health.

Published: September 2022

OBJETIVOS: Recontar, por meio da história oral, a história da criação do Centro de Convivência Arthur Bispo do Rosário. MÉTODOS: Estudo qualitativo, com coleta de dados por meio da história oral, narrada por pessoas que presenciaram ou participaram dos acontecimentos. As entrevistas foram realizadas com cinco trabalhadores do Centro de Convivência Arthur Bispo do Rosário, gravadas, transcritas e analisadas. Para análise, dividiram-se as entrevistas em categorias organizadas por ordem coerente, construindo uma narrativa da história da criação do Centro de Convivência Arthur Bispo do Rosário. RESULTADOS: Inspirada pelo ideal da Reforma Psiquiátrica e pela consolidação de serviços substitutivos de outras cidades, a equipe do Instituto Raul Soares deu início à criação do Centro de Convivência em 1992 dentro do espaço físico do hospital. Oficinas de produção de arte e cultura eram realizadas com os pacientes institucionalizados. Apesar da lógica diferente, os ideais do hospital psiquiátrico permeavam o funcionamento do Centro de Convivência Arthur Bispo do Rosário, que apenas em 2000 foi municipalizado e vinculado ao Distrito Sanitário Leste, abrindo-se à comunidade e consolidando-se como serviço substitutivo em saúde mental.  CONCLUSÕES: Com o debate acerca da Reforma Psiquiátrica, o Centro de Convivência Arthur Bispo do Rosário foi criado, mas não conseguiu consolidar os princípios da luta antimanicomial enquanto permaneceu vinculado ao hospital psiquiátrico. A psiquiatria tradicional e o modelo manicomial ofereceram resistência inicial à consolidação do serviço, que só foi concretizada com sua municipalização oito anos depois.
Biodigestores como tecnologia social para promoção da saúde: Estudo de caso para saneamento residencial em áreas periféricas
Authors: Proença Cláudio Amaral , Machado Gustavo Carvalhaes Xavier Martins Pontual
Published: September 2022

Esse artigo relaciona o panorama do saneamento no Brasil com enfoque no reaproveitamento dos resíduos orgânicos e do esgoto sanitário, através de modelos de saneamento ecológico, com intuito de promover a saúde. O biodigestor é um exemplo de tecnologia social que possibilita sanear e obter energia em forma de gás natural através da biodigestão anaeróbia para áreas rurais e periurbanas. No estudo, o biodigestor foi classificado entre sua aplicabilidade: rurais, industriais e residenciais. No entanto, no contexto brasileiro, as residências provenientes de ocupação desordenada e áreas rurais, geralmente, não possuem tratamento de esgoto adequado. Assim, foram levantados dados sobre diferentes modelos de biodigestores, através de estudo de caso dos sistemas biodigestores do Vale Encantado e Águas do Imperador. Foi dado foco aos biodigestores residenciais, como tecnologias sociais, a partir de estudo de caso da comunidade do Vale Encantado. Para a construção deste estudo, a metodologia foi: Revisão Bibliográfica, Revisão Documental, Pesquisa Qualitativa, Estudo de caso e Observação Participante com saída de campo. Pode-se demonstrar que é possível solucionar de forma descentralizada a disposição final dos resíduos orgânicos e esgoto doméstico, para 20 pessoas, com aplicação em um restaurante comunitário (Vale Encantado), e para aproximadamente 3.000 pessoas, com aplicabilidade em uma comunidade ou área periurbana (Águas do Imperador). Conclui-se que os biodigestores são uma alternativa de tecnologia social para o saneamento, principalmente em regiões onde soluções convencionais não são uma possibilidade financeiramente viável.

A maior parte dos pacientes fazia uso de polifarmácia. A quantidade de fármacos prescrita aos pacientes participantes do estudo variou de 02 a 18 medicamentos e o número médio encontrado foi de oito. Conclusões: A quantidade de farmácos relaciona-se, possivelmente, devido ao grande número de comorbidades associadas à doença renal crônica e devido ao conceito de polifarmácia adotado.

O diabetes mellitus tipo 2 é uma das doenças crônicas não transmissíveis mais prevalentes e o seu controle adequado na Atenção Primária à Saúde evita complicações e o uso desnecessário de outros serviços de saúde. Neste sentido, o objetivo deste estudo foi analisar o tratamento e controle do diabetes mellitus tipo 2 em Unidades de Saúde da Família de Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo.  Trata-se de um estudo longitudinal realizado nos anos de 2016, 2017 e 2018. A amostra foi constituída por cem participantes e coletados dados sociodemográficos, clínicos e laboratoriais. A maioria dos participantes era do sexo feminino (63%) e a média de idade foi de 66,9 anos. Dentre os medicamentos prescritos para o tratamento do diabetes, destacou-se o uso de metformina em monoterapia, seguido de metformina associada às sulfonilureias e insulina associada à antidiabético oral. Verificou-se associação positiva entre o controle glicêmico e idade igual ou superior a sessenta anos, bem como o uso de metformina isoladamente ou em combinação com outros antidiabéticos. Evidenciou-se que, ao longo dos anos, houve aumento na prescrição de medicamentos para o tratamento da doença. Assim, sugere-se o gerenciamento da farmacoterapia pela equipe multiprofissional para a integralidade do cuidado às pessoas com diabetes.

Published: September 2022

A Revolta da Vacina: mentes insanas em corpos rebeldes de Nicolau Sevcenko é uma nova edição de 2018 da Editora UNESP. A obra é um clássico da historiografia brasileira e se propõe a analisar a primeira revolta urbana do período republicano. Muito além da questão sanitária o movimento se propunha a rebelar-se contra uma série de iniciativas políticas, sociais, econômicas e de higiene impostas entre 1904 e 1905 na cidade do Rio de Janeiro, epicentro de uma nova percepção de como deveria ser a vida em sociedade.
O ensino no espaço de orientação acadêmica dos estágios curriculares da Saúde
Authors: Polonio Denise Fabiane , Schwertner Suzana Feldens
Published: September 2022

A presente escrita integra uma pesquisa de mestrado que analisou a dimensão do ensino no espaço de orientação acadêmica dos estágios curriculares dos cursos da Saúde. Ela foi realizada com seis professores dos cursos da área da Saúde da Universidade do Vale do Taquari – Univates. O estudo empregou uma abordagem qualitativa, de cunho exploratório e descritivo, utilizando o método cartográfico como produção de dados, que ocorreu por meio da escrita de cartas, produzidas pelos professores participantes. A análise dos dados se direcionou ao campo discursivo das narrativas dos professores, utilizando como base as teorizações foucaultianas referentes à análise discursiva. Os resultados indicam que a orientação acadêmica é um ambiente de acolhimento, permeado pela interação entre professor e estudante. A discussão e reflexão também constituem as bases desses momentos, pois movimentam trocas entre orientador e estagiário, instigando os participantes a problematizar, refletir, construir, trocar e aprimorar as práticas de trabalho. O ensino e a aprendizagem são contínuos. Os professores se percebem responsáveis por construir e mediar estes momentos, porém, destacam que não só ensinam, nem apenas aprendem, mas sim ‘ensinam & aprendem’. Nessa perspectiva, respeitam a singularidade de cada estudante e, pela sensibilidade, aproximam-se destes, construindo uma relação de confiança, crucial para o momento. Em algumas ações, utilizam a narrativa de suas experiências para que, por meio da escuta, o estudante tenha um elemento disparador e consiga delinear suas próprias intervenções profissionais.

Published: September 2022

Objetivo: identificar os níveis de Resiliência e o Perfil de Atitudes Acerca da Morte (EAPAM) apresentados por técnicos de enfermagem de uma unidade de terapia intensiva (UTI). Método: Trata-se de uma pesquisa tipo exploratório e transversal, com abordagem quantitativa, desenvolvida a partir da aplicação da Escala ER (Escala de Resiliência) e  escala EAPAM (Escala de Avaliação do Perfil de Atitudes Acerca da Morte), ambas autoaplicáveis com respostas do tipo “likert” para técnicos de enfermagem de um hospital federal do Rio Grande do Sul. As variáveis foram descritas por média e desvio padrão. Na análise estatística, para comparação de médias utilizou-se o teste t-student, complementada por Tukey e teste qui-quadrado para comparação de proporções.  Para avaliar a associação entre as variáveis contínuas e ordinais, os coeficientes de correlação de Pearson e Spearman foram utilizados, respectivamente.  Resultados: Identificou-se que 74% dos técnicos de enfermagem mostram-se resilientes e a Atitude Acerca da Morte mais frequente foi a Aceitação Neutral (87%). Evidenciou-se relação significativa entre a presença de resiliência e atitude de Aceitação Neutral (r=a,298; p=0,004). Conclusão: os dados obtidos permitem vislumbrar fragilidades e potencialidades a serem trabalhadas com a equipe visando seu bem-estar. Como limitação, apontamos à necessidade de estender a avaliação aos demais membros da equipe multiprofissional.

BACKGROUND: Anthrax is a zoonotic disease caused by Bacillus anthracis, whose endospores stimulate the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and promote oxidative stress. Propolis, a natural resource that can be found in Indonesia, has been proven to have anti-apoptotic and antioxidant role which might be a potential adjuvant therapy for anthrax treatment. Hence in this study we aimed to investigate effect of propolis as an anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and antioxidant in anthrax rats model by examining the level of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, caspase-3, and malondialdehyde (MDA), respectively.METHODS: This was an experimental post-test only study with 40 male rats weighed 180-200 g that were induced by anthrax spores injected subcutaneously. The rats were divided into one control positive group and four intervention groups that were administered with 200 mg/kgBW propolis extract for 7 to 14 days. The levels of serum TNF-α, caspase-3, and MDA were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and analyzed with bivariate analysis.RESULTS: TNF-α, caspase-3, and MDA level were found lower in anthrax rats model given ethanol extract of propolis than the control group. The lowest concentration of TNF-α value was found in group administered with propolis extract 200 mg/kgBW for 7 days before the anthrax induction (6.136±0.205 pg/mL). The results were similar to the MDA serum and caspase-3 which were the lowest when the propolis was administered 7 days earlier (1.893±0.188 nmol/mL and 2.040±0.067 ng/mL). There was significant difference in the TNF-α, caspase-3, and MDA serum levels (p≤0.001) compared to control group.CONCLUSION: Propolis has anti-apoptotic and antioxidant effects which can be used as complementary therapy in anthrax infection.KEYWORDS: propolis, anthrax, anti-apoptotic, antioxidants

Authors: OCAKOĞLU Gökhan , MACUNLUOGLU Aslı Ceren
Published: September 2022

Objectives: The performances of the Welch test, the Alexander-Govern test, the Brown-Forsythe test and the James Second-Order test, which are among the parametric alternatives of one-way analysis of variance and included in the literature, to protect the Type-I error probability determined at the beginning of the trial at a nominal level, were compared with the F test.
Methods: Performance of the tests to protect Type-I error; in cases where the variances are homogeneous and heterogeneous, the sample sizes are balanced and unbalanced, the distribution of the data is in accordance with the normal distribution and the log-normal distribution, how it is affected by the change in the number of groups to be compared has been examined on simulation scenarios.
Results: The Welch test, the Alexander-Govern test and the James Second-Order test were not affected by the distribution and performed well in situations where variances were heterogeneous. The Brown-Forsythe test was not affected by the distribution, it performed well when the variance was homogeneous and the sample size in the groups to be compared was not equal.
Conclusions: The Welch test, the Alexander-Govern test and the James Second-Order test are the tests that can be recommended as an alternative to the F test.
