Published: September 2021

The validation of an analytical method was carried out for the determination of arsenic components in fish sauce by HG-AAS. The total arsenic content (tAs) was analyzed after digesting the sample by dry and wet combined digestion method in a Teflon flask at 450 °C and then reducing As (V) to As (III) with a mixture of reducing agents KI/ascorbic acid. For inorganic arsenic content (iAs), the sample was hydrolyzed with HCl solution for 14 hours, converted As (V) to As (III), then reacted with hydrazine 1.5%. Extracted in CHCl3 and re-extracted in HNO3. The organic arsenic content (oAs) was calculated by the difference tAs and iAs. Determined the linear concentration range 2 - 30 μg/L and the standard curve was y = 0.0128x + 0.0007 with R² = 0.9996 at the concentration range 2 - 20 μg/L. LODs, LOQs for total and inorganic arsenic contents were found and all they were 0.015 mg/L and 0.05 mg/L, respectively. For total arsenic, the recovery efficiencies on the organic arsenic standard and inorganic arsenic standard all ranged from 81 to 109%;...

A erótica como religião terrena do amor: um estudo das afinidades eletivas entre Max Weber e Ulrich Beck.
Authors: Pedron Caio Cesar
Published: September 2021

Este trabalho pretende apresentar uma comparação entre o pensamento de Ulrich Beck e Max Weber no que tange as suas interpretações sociológicas do amor. Ambos os autores teorizaram sobre a emergência de uma esfera (ou um horizonte de sentido) de valoração da experiência amorosa em si mesma, secularizada e, por isso, afastada dos mecanismos de organização, hierarquização e dominação tradicional das relações sexuais. A hipótese que procurarei defender no percurso da investigação é a de que o trabalho de Beck consolida e amplia a proposta analítica de Weber, apresentando pontos de inflexão no qual podemos aprofundar a compreensão do amor enquanto fenômeno social em sua autonomia na relação com outras esferas da vida.

Published: September 2021

Neste artigo são abordadas diferentes perspectivas teóricas relacionadas às expectativas de democratização da comunicação a partir do amplo acesso à internet 2.0, tendo como objeto refletir sobre o impacto social das novas configurações de mídia. As mudanças constantes nas formas de produção e consumo de informações reinauguram questões sociológicas centrais, como o novo espaço de agência ocupado pela antiga “massa receptora” de informações: os indivíduos que antes eram tidos como parte de um todo indiferenciado, receptores indistintos de notícias, passam a ocupar o epicentro deste rearranjo no âmbito da comunicação e, consequentemente, um novo espaço corpo social. A partir da noção de "utopia digital", discutiremos o conceito de autocomunicação de massa e suas atuais consequências para o processo democrático. Para isso, será feita uma análise da emergência de novos atores no campo da comunicação independente, buscando apreender os sentidos mobilizados em seus discursos.

A Narrative Summary of High Flow Nasal Cannula Therapy in the Adult Population
Authors: Gonzales Joshua , Collins Kevin , Russian Christopher
Published: September 2021

Purpose: The aim of this narrative review is to outline the mechanism of action of HFNC therapy, the clinical benefits of its use, cautions of its clinical application and limitations of previous research. Methods: A literature review was conducted using the following databases as sources: Medline, PubMed, and Google Scholar. Only publications written in English were used in this clinical review. Keywords used in the search included the following: high-flow nasal cannula, heated humidified oxygen, oxygen therapy, non-invasive ventilation, and respiratory failure. Results: The literature reveals HFNC therapy significantly decreased the use of mechanical ventilation (invasive or non-invasive) in patients experiencing respiratory failure. HFNC therapy was better tolerated by patients and decreased the patient’s work of breathing when compared to a conventional oxygen therapy (i.e., non-rebreather oxygen mask). Other clinical benefits of using HFNC when changing a patient from conventional facemask oxygen therapy to a HFNC device are significant improvements in PaO2, respiratory rate and overall comfort. Conclusions: High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy serves as an alternative to conventional oxygen therapy to deliver elevated concentrations of oxygen to patients experiencing acute respiratory failure. Information detailed in this article suggests HFNC therapy is an effective therapy for improving a patient’s oxygenation status when experiencing acute respiratory failure in adults. The literature reveals, it is reasonable to initiate HFNC in adults with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure without hypercapnia, as an alternative to standard oxygen therapy or noninvasive positive pressure ventilation.

Authors: Bierwas Debra , Rogers Oaklee , Taubman Brenda , Kroneberger Lorie , Carroll Holly , Enking Patrick
Published: September 2021

Introduction: The call for increasing interprofessional education requires institutional support for educators in the clinical environment. Innovative ideas, such as partnering with multiple universities and programs to facilitate an interprofessional workshop, have the opportunity to reach a broader group of clinical educators. The purpose of this study was to examine the attitude of healthcare professionals towards interprofessional learning, familiarity with concepts of interprofessional teaching, and interprofessional practice, and to examine the influence of an interprofessional faculty development workshop on participant familiarity with concepts of interprofessional teaching and learning. Methods: The occupational therapy, physical therapy, and physician assistant programs from two universities collaborated to implement an all-day inter-institutional, interprofessional clinical faculty development workshop. Community clinical educators who participated in the event were surveyed pre- and post-workshop to examine their attitude, readiness, and knowledge of interprofessional learning and teaching. Using the revised version of the Readiness of Interprofessional Learning Scale, the following subscales were measured and analyzed: 1) Teamwork and Collaboration, 2) Negative Professional Identity, 3) Positive Professional Identity, and 4) Roles and Responsibilities. Results: Forty-three participants representing six different healthcare professions completed pre- and post-course surveys. Forty-four percent reported participating in interprofessional education. Overall, the attendees reported the value of the workshop as a 4.6 on a 5.0 point Likert scale, with 5.0 being the highest rating. Self-reported familiarity of the fundamental concepts of interprofessional teaching, interprofessional practice, and interprofessional education improved up to 32% following participation in the workshop. The highest increase in familiarity was in the area of knowledge of interprofessional practice and education. Participants reported high levels of agreement about the value of teamwork, collaboration, and positive professional identity. Conclusion: Integrating the Core Competencies for Interprofessional Collaborative Practice into educational programs and clinical practice can facilitate improved understanding of professional roles and improved collaborative practice.
Cultural Awareness and Sensitivity of Students in a Physical Therapy Program – A Pilot Survey
Authors: Oluwole-Sangoseni Olaide , Jenkins-Unterberg Michelle
Published: September 2021

Background: Attempts to address health and health care disparities in the United States have led to a renewed focus on the training of healthcare professionals including physical therapists. Current health care policies emphasize culturally competent care as a means of promoting equity in care delivery by health care professionals. Experts agree that cultural insensitivity has a negative association with health professionals’ ability to provide quality care. Objective: To evaluate the cultural awareness and sensitivity of physical therapy (PT) students in a didactic curriculum aimed to increase cultural awareness. Methods: Using the Multicultural Sensitivity Scale (MSS), a cross-sectional survey was conducted to assess cultural sensitivity among three groups of students, (N = 139) from a doctor of physical therapy (DPT) program at a liberal arts university in Saint Louis, MO. Results: Response rate was 76.3%. Participants (n=100) were students in first (DPT1, n=36), third (DPT3, n=36), and sixth (DPT6, n=28) year of the program. Mean ranked MSS score was DPT1 = 45.53, DPT3 = 46.60 DPT6 = 61.91. Kruskal-Wallis analysis of the mean ranked scores showed a significant difference among three groups, H = 6.05 (2, N=100), p ≤ .05. Discussion: Students who have completed the cultural awareness curriculum, and undergone clinical experiences rated themselves higher on the cultural sensitivity/awareness. Results provide initial evidence that experiential learning opportunities may help PT students to more effectively integrate knowledge from classroom activities designed to facilitate cultural competence.

Authors: Brooks Marta , Holm Suzanne , Thomas Shelene , Rich Amy
Published: September 2021

Purpose: The purpose of this initiative was to develop and implement an interprofessional panel aimed to expose a university audience to the magnitude of opioid misuse and abuse, as well as demonstrate each health professional’s role in curbing the epidemic. Further, this experience was to provide a platform for interprofessional discussion and to share with attendees tangible action items to begin combatting the opioid epidemic. Methods: An interdisciplinary committee of healthcare professionals collaborated to initiate a dialogue around opioid misuse and abuse to highlight the power of interprofessional (IP) collaboration in addressing the opioid epidemic. Each panel member shared a personal vignette about his or her professional experience with the epidemic, then the audience members were asked to participate in a question and answer session. Primary outcomes from this IP experience were derived from an eight-item satisfaction survey. The event was held in April 2016. The interdisciplinary committee marketed this event to all students, faculty, and staff in the Rueckert-Hartman College of Health Care Professionals one month before the event through electronic emails and posters. Results: Forty-four (63%) of participants completed the satisfaction survey of which 88.6% were students of healthcare professions. The satisfaction survey evaluative results were positive and referenced the panel as being an excellent IP event that was helpful, informative, and enjoyable. The results support that the initiative successfully increased understanding of the magnitude of the opioid epidemic for the attendees of this pilot event. The target audience of students expressed a greater awareness of the magnitude of the problem (43.2%) and an increased appreciation of the IP aspects of opioid management strategies (36.4%). Attendees also identified the need for ownership of their role as existing and future health care professionals and the need to work as an IP team to address the problem. Conclusion: An interprofessional panel format as an optional extracurricular event is an effective way to communicate key educational messages about opioid misuse and abuse to a target audience of graduate students at a mid-sized college of health professions.
Are Audience Response Systems Worth the Cost? Comparing Question-Driven Teaching Strategies for Emergency Medical Technician Education
Authors: Maloney Lauren , Dilger James , Werfel Paul , Cimino Linda
Published: September 2021

Purpose: As Emergency Medical Technician educators develop curricula to meet new national educational standards, effective teaching strategies validated for course content and unique student demographics are warranted. Three methods for answering multiple choice questions presented during lectures were compared: a) Audience Response System (ARS, clickers), b) hand-raising-with-eyes-closed (no-cost option), and c) passive response (no-cost option). The purpose was to determine if using the ARS resulted in improved exam scores. Method: 113 Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) students participated in this cross-over, block randomized, controlled trial, which was incorporated into their Cardiac Emergencies and Pulmonary Emergencies course lectures. Students took pretests, immediate post-tests, and delayed post-tests composed of multiple choice questions that targeted either lower or higher order thinking. Results: For both lectures, there were significant improvements on all immediate post-test scores compared to all pretest scores (p Conclusions: In this cohort, incorporation of no-cost question-driven teaching strategies into lectures was as effective as an ARS at encouraging significant, immediate and sustained improvements in answering multiple choice questions.

Published: September 2021

A Geometria Fractal é um tema que tem sido pouco explorado nos ensinos fundamental e  médio, apesar da sua extrema utilidade na descrição das formas construídas pela natureza. O objetivo geral desse trabalho foi propor e analisar estratégias didáticas para ensinar a geometria fractal, no ensino fundamental e médio, a partir da observação dos objetos e fenômenos naturais e criados pelo homem. Apesar da perfeita adequação das estratégias didáticas propostas a todo ensino básico a  amostra trabalhada foi constituída de só por alunos de uma turma de terceiro ano do ensino médio de uma escola pública da rede oficial de ensino do Estado de Pernambuco. A teoria dos construtos pessoais de Kelly  foi o método usado na realização da pesquisa. Os resultados obtidos sugerem que os estudantes ampliaram seus construtos pessoais em função da intervenção didática proposta e que é possível introduzir no ensino médio a geometria fractal.

 

Fractal Geometry is a topic that has been little explored in elementary and high schools, despite its extreme usefulness in describing the shapes built by nature. The general objective of this work was to propose and analyze didactic strategies to teach fractal geometry, in elementary and high school, based on the observation of natural and man-made objects and phenomena. Despite the perfect adequacy of the proposed didactic strategies to all basic education, the studied sample consisted of only students from a third-year high school class in a public school in the official teaching network in the State of Pernambuco. Kelly's personal constructs theory was the method used in conducting the research. The results obtained suggest that students expanded their personal constructs as a result of the proposed didactic intervention and that it is possible to teach fractal geometry in high school.

Published: September 2021

Este artículo presenta los resultados del estudio y análisis de las presiones y los dilemas éticos que enfrentan los contadores públicos, en calidad de auditores o revisores fiscales en la ciudad de Cartagena. De igual manera, el presente trabajo explora  el impacto de las presiones que enfrentan los auditores o revisores fiscales de las firmas en este lugar y cómo éstas afectan la objetividad e independencia en los informes o dictámenes; al mismo tiempo se hace un análisis de cómo actúan frente a las presiones y los dilemas éticos que viven al desarrollar su labor.

Para dar alcance a estos objetivos, se realizó una encuesta a 39  profesionales; de tal manera, con la que se busca analizar las presiones y los dilemas éticos afrontados por los auditores de las principales firmas de auditoría de la ciudad de Cartagena, quienes en su ejercicio pueden ser vulnerables en los aspectos éticos y morales a partir de las exigencias del contexto donde se desempeñan.

Este estudio cobra relevancia teniendo en cuenta que en Colombia se realizó una articulación del sistema contable nacional con las exigencias internacionales a partir de la expedición de la Ley 1314 de 2009, incluyendo el aseguramiento de la información; por lo que la inclusión de la auditoría con un marco normativo más robusto y el código de ética de la International Federation of Accountants (IFAC), exigen a los profesionales un actuar con responsabilidad social.

Abstract

This article presents the results of a study and analysis of pressure and ethical dilemmas public accountants face as appointed auditors or as statuary auditors in the City of Cartagena. In like manner, this document addresses the impact of the pressure auditors or statuary auditors face in firms in this city and how these affect their objectivity and independence in their reports or rulings; simultaneously, an analysis is performed on how they behave while facing pressure and ethical dilemmas that they confront while carrying out their work.

To reach these objectives, a questionnaire was applied to 40 professionals; in such a way that this investigation aims to analyze the pressure and ethical dilemmas which auditors from the main firms confront in the City of Cartegena, who, during their practice, may experience a violation of ethical and moral aspects based on the demands from the context where they perform their duties.

This study takes on special relevance considering that Colombia has established a joint articulation between its national accounting system and with international requirements since the issuance of Law 1314 of 2009, including information assurance; Therefore, the inclusion of auditing with a more robust regulatory framework and the Code of Ethics of the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC), require professionals to act with social responsibility.

During a pandemic outbreak, timely and accurate information that matches the information needs of the public is vital to inform the public. In April 2020, 977 individuals completed a questionnaire that measured the Dutch public’s health information needs and media consumption during the early stages of the coronavirus outbreak. Results show that respondents sought information about prevention of contamination, (the severity of) symptoms, treatment, and vaccination. News outlets, both online and offline, were the most preferred sources for information. Older people were more likely to search for information in traditional media, such as on TV, in newspapers, and on the radio. Younger people more often used news websites to find information. Respondents with lower levels of education obtained information via TV more frequently than respondents with higher levels of education, who in turn used newspapers more frequently. This study, guided by the Risk Information Seeking and Processing (RISP) model, was conducted during the early stages of the pandemic in the Netherlands to provide information that public health officials and governments can use to optimise information provision during pandemics. Presently, news media have the highest degree of coverage and impact and should thus be used first to convey reliable information.

Introduction. The digitalization of education in the Russian Federation accompanied by the intensive use of digital tools in children and adolescents’ education and leisure activities actualizes the problems of preserving the health of the younger generation. The aim of the study was to assess the current medical and social problems of informatization of education and the formation of approaches to the hygienic regulation of the main risk factors for the health of students, to determine the technologies for ensuring their hygienic safety in the digital environment. Materials and methods. The expert and analytical research were carried out using scientific publications, Internet resources, normative and methodological documents showing the features of the organization of educational activities of students in the digital environment, the technology of ensuring their hygienic safety. Results. It shows the high degree of development of the digital environment in the Russian education system; a diverse arsenal of digital educational resources and services that are most in demand by participants in the educational process; prospects for the modernization and development of education in the course of the introduction of the digital educational environment (DEE). The new digital environment can negatively impact the lifestyle and behavior of children and adolescents and contribute to the formation of additional risk factors for their health. In the context of the increased informatization of the educational process and the active use of electronic learning tools (ESE), there is an increase in the information load and psychoemotional overstrain in children and adolescents, an increase in various forms of information dependence, borderline mental disorders and behavioural disorders, the prevalence of school-related conditions and diseases. Conclusion. Among the measures related to the safety of the use of digital technologies and means of their provision in the educational and leisure activities of children, the implementation of technologies aimed at assessing the main risk factors for children’s health in the developing digital environment and the prospects for the development of hygienic rationing; compliance with hygiene regulations and rules of work when using ESO; training and education of children, parents and teachers; expertise of educational programs and technologies; monitoring the effectiveness of the implementation of DEE.
Safety of food products intended for children: residual amounts of pesticides (literature review)
Authors: Kuzmin Sergey V. , Dobreva Nataliya I. , Fedorova Nataliya E.
Published: September 2021

The literature review examines data on the assessment of contamination of food products and biological media with organochlorine pesticides, modern approaches, and methods for the identification and quantification of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) as follows: hexachlorobenzene (HCB), aldrin, dieldrin, heptachlor, and endrin in various vegetable matrices, of animal origin (food products) and biological media (breast milk, blood serum, tissues). These pesticides, along with DDT and its metabolites and HCH (α, β, γ isomers), are persisting organic pollutants (POPs) according to the list of the Stockholm POPs Convention, included in the so-called global “dirty dozen substances”. Despite the prohibition of the production of these pesticides by most countries of the world community and the elimination of the quantities already produced, their migration along the food chain from contaminated objects of the environment to plants, and through plants to animals and humans, is still observed. Today’s contamination with OCPs and their metabolites remains a severe problem since they are detected in environmental objects, food products, and baby formula and breast milk. The literature review is based on virtual database platforms: Elsevier, PubMed, Science Direct, Medline, SciELO, Google Scholar, ResearchGate, e-LIBRARY, Electronic collection of legal and regulatory documents, and others.
Changing the manner of electing the President of the Republic of Kosovo
Authors: Susuri Driola , Kryeziu Kadri
Published: September 2021

The Constitution of the Republic of Kosovo in its basic provisions has constituted the principle of separation and control of the balance between state powers as a fundamental principle of democracy, by designating representative bodies belonging to state powers such as Parliament, Government, and Judiciary. In addition, the Constitution sanctions other state bodies that have a constitutional character and together create the form of governance in the Republic of Kosovo. Among them also the President functions as a constitutional body exercising the executive duty and having ceremonial competencies. The President in Kosovo is a neutral authority because he/she is a representative of the people’s unity. The authorities in Kosovo create a "check and balance" among themselves for the normal functioning of the state. Kosovo is considered a parliamentary Republic, not sanctioned by the constitution but implied based on the decision of the Parliament of the Republic of Kosovo.In addition to electing the Government, the Parliament also elects the President of the Republic, so in this study, we will address the function of the President, the exercise of his duties, his competencies, and his relationship with other state bodies. We will also analyze the system of governance and the principle of separation and balance of powers, with special emphasis on the constitutional position of the President in the Republic of Kosovo. Among other things, we will address in particular the complexity of the procedures for the election of the President of the Republic of Kosovo. Considering the ongoing problems that have accompanied the presidential elections in the Republic of Kosovo and that continue to be so, it is necessary to clarify whether “the constitutional reform initiative for the President of the Republic of Kosovo to be voted by the people is considered the most current and best way of overcoming the present parliamentary stalemate in the election of the candidate for the President of the Republic, as well as whether the implementation of this reform is conditioned by the will of the political parties and the people”. In general, from the stated scientific elaboration of the topic, we can conclude that the intention of this paper consists in determining the constitutional regulation of the institution of the President of the Republic of Kosovo applied in the parliamentary system, empirical elaboration of problems that accompanied the election of presidents in the Republic of Kosovo as well as the immediate need to change the manner of electing the President of the Republic of Kosovo.
How successful is the Higher Institute of Communications and Navigation, Kuwait, in reducing dependence on expatriates
Authors: Al-Ali Salah
Published: September 2021

The need for skilled and semi-skilled indigenous manpower in the gulf states (e.g., Kuwait. Qatar, United Arab Emirates) is highly noted in the related literature. Technical and vocational education is considered as a dual type of education system that allow students to transfer what they have learned in classrooms, workshops, and laboratories into real work environment. It is the ultimate solution, particularly for the gulf states, to overcome and/or reduce the rate of dependance on expatriates especially in essential sectors in their economy (e.g., oil, electricity and water, health sector). The governments of the gulf states have realized the urgent need to forge technical and vocational colleges and institutions hoping to close the gap with industries and business. Technical and vocational education is completely different from formal education and thus requires a careful design, planning, and monitoring to ensure meeting industrial and business current and future requirements. However, the success of technical and vocational education would depend, to great extent, on the type of management since it requires a specific knowledge, skills, and attitudes that are distinguished technical and vocational education from any other types of education. The Higher Institute of Communications and Navigation, HIC&N, was forged by the Kuwaiti Government with the aim to equipped local manpower with the know-how and know-why that are mostly needed by local industries. The research is focus on measuring the perception of a sample of heads of departments at the Ministry of Communications towards the quality of HIC&N graduates. The research is based on extensive field work that encompasses a review of the related literature, interviews with a sample of heads of departments at the Ministry Communications to assess the quality of field training program and the standard of the HIC&N graduates. Finally, the research will argue that unless the HIC&N recognize and appreciate the value of building a strong linkage with local industries, its contribution in tackling the shortage of skilled and semi-skilled indigenous in essential sectors on the economy will be below the government expectations, thus continuing relaying on expatriates for years ahead.
How Successful is the Management of Technical and Vocational Institutions, Kuwait, in Reducing Dependence on Expatriates?
Authors: Al-Ali Salah
Published: September 2021

There is a common perception that technical and vocational education is the ultimate solution for providing industries and business with skilled and semi-skilled manpower. It is considered as a dual type of education system that would allow students to transfer what they have learned in their schools and colleges into real work environment. It is a combination of education that encompasses theory and practice where students spend a certain time in industrial and business premises to acquire the needed knowledge, skills and attitudes. Due to the shortage of skilled and semi-skilled indigenous manpower, the gulf states (e.g., Kuwait, Qatar, United Arab Emirates) have forged technical and vocational education colleges and institutions with the aim to supply essential sectors of their economy (e.g., oil, electricity and water, health sector, infrastructure), with qualified national manpower able to manage, maintain, and adapt the imported technology to suite local environments. However, the success of technical and vocational institution in achieving an acceptable outcome would, to great extent, depend on the quality of the management of technical and vocational institutions. The fact is managing technical and vocational education is completely different from managing a formal education (e.g., formal colleges and universities). This research paper examines how successful is the management of technical and vocational colleges and institutions in providing local industries with indigenous skilled and semi-skilled qualified manpower. The research is based on extensive field work that encompasses a review of the related literature, interviews with sample of heads of supervisors/heads of departments at the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Communications, Ministry of Electricity and Water, and the oil sector in order to assess the quality of graduates from technical and vocational colleges and institutions. Finally, the research will argue that unless the management of technical and vocational colleges and institutions recognize and appreciate the value of building a strong linkage with local industries, its contribution in tackling the shortage of skilled and semi-skilled indigenous in essential sectors on the economy will be below the government expectations, thus continuing relaying on expatriates for years ahead.
