Este estudo teve por objetivo avaliar os efeitos da nutrição parenteral total associada a glutamina ou fluidoterapia enteral, associada ou não à glutamina, sobre os parâmetros hematológicos de equinos submetidos à inanição. Foram utilizados 16 equinos adultos hígidos, sem raça definida, de ambos os sexos, quatro machos e 12 fêmeas, com idade variando entre quatro e 14 anos e peso corporal médio de 248,40 + 2,28 kg, divididos em quatro grupos, quatro animais por grupo: Grupo I (ENTGL): fluidoterapia enteral com eletrólitos associada a glutamina; Grupo II (PARGL): Nutrição parenteral total (NPT) associada a glutamina; Grupo III (ENTFL): fluidoterapia enteral com eletrólitos; Grupo IV (PARFL): fluidoterapia parenteral. Para a realização do hemograma, amostras de sangue foram colhidas por venopunção na jugular externa esquerda, em tubos a vácuo, contendo EDTA (sal dissódico do ácido etilenodiamino tetra-acético). O hemograma foi constituído do eritrograma e do leucograma. As amostras para realização da hematologia foram obtidas a cada 24 horas durante todo o período experimental, totalizando sete amostras. O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente ao acaso, em esquema fatorial 4x12 (grupos x tempo de colheita), para cada fase, e suas médias comparadas pelo teste de Duncan ao nível de 5% de significância. Não foram observadas alterações significativas para a maioria dos parâmetros avaliados.

A proptose ocular está entre as afecções oculares mais recorrentes nos Cavia porcellus, ocorrendo por diversas causas, nesta espécie pode ocorrer deslocamento do globo ocular devido à compressão interna, causada pela raiz dentária. O objetivo deste trabalho é relatar dois casos em que foram realizados as técnicas de enucleação e exenteração para correção de proptose ocular secundária à síndrome da doença dentária adquirida (SDDA). Duas porquinhas-da-índia consanguíneas, acometidas de doença dentária foram atendidas, com crescimento da raiz dentária do pré-molar e molares, promovendo força e expulsão do globo ocular direito. Por não haver viabilidade tecidual, foram submetidas a cirurgia, uma com técnica de enucleação e a outra com exenteração, além disso, foram realizadas coletas de secreção para cultura com antibiograma no pré e transoperatório e histopatológico dos tecidos oculares. A aplicação das técnicas cirúrgicas mostraram-se efetivas para a correção da patologia instalada, transcorreram com cicatrização e caráter estético efetivos. O resultado das culturas bacterianas foi positivo para apenas um dos animais, com amostras no pré e trans operatório. Além de demonstrarem alterações histológicas, com caráter neutrofílico. Conclui-se que as técnicas de enucleação e exenteração são efetivas para correção de proptose nesta espécie, podendo especificar as características de cada quadro clínico.

A rede móvel de quinta geração (5G) traz novas possibilidades de serviços a serem oferecidos para os diversos usuários, além de conviver sem interferência com o sinal da televisão e das redes celulares existentes, como: 2G, 3G e 4G. O projeto em desenvolvimento com a comunidade europeia chamado 5G Range vem para superar os desafios que existem ao utilizar a tecnologia 5G em redes de longa distância para acesso a áreas remotas, de forma a permitir taxas de transmissão de dados a 100 Mbps em um raio de alcance de 50 quilômetros a partir da estação rádio base (ERB), neste caso atingindo cerca de 100 quilômetros por localidade. Apesar da taxa de transmissão ser menor que a prevista para os centros urbanos, que é estimado na ordem de 20Gbps, a taxa prevista no projeto 5G Range viabiliza diversos serviços e permite maior alcance a um custo mais apropriado para áreas remotas, e traz uma maior capacidade e cobertura que o padrão atual em 4G. Esta característica do projeto permite que boa parte da população brasileira que estão longe da infraestrutura de acesso a internet em locais remotos, possam ser atendidas por este sistema de 5G de longo alcance.

Inflation and Bank Credit
Authors: Tinoco-Zermeño Miguel Ángel , Torres-Preciado Víctor Hugo , Venegas-Martínez Francisco
Published: January 2022

e objective of this paper is to assess empirically the effects of inflation rates on bank credit using panel data of the 32 Mexican
states during 2003-2015. Our research method utilizes static models (pooled OLS, fixed effects, and random effects) and dynamic
models (mean group, pooled mean group, and dynamic fixed effects) to analyze the relationship in the short and long runs. e
main empirical result indicates that inflation rates exert negative effects on credit in the long run, but those effects tend to be
positive in the short run. Concerning originality and findings, few papers study inflation and bank credit under macroeconomic
stability, or in the case of Mexico with static and dynamic panel data models. However, one research limitation is the lack of data
to apply the methodology before 1999 when inflation rates used to be higher. is would be useful to compare macroeconomic
stability with instability.

Published: January 2022

There has been growing evidence that the lack of academic writing skills among university students who learn English as a Second Language (ESL) affects their overall academic performance. Higher education ESL students often find writing academic essays a complex process and hence struggle with academic writing convention issues. However, in order to encourage these students’ to be autonomous in their English academic writing, explicit and supportive instruction is necessary on the teacher’s part. This study aims to investigate thirty Foundation students’ revision activities pre- and post-intervention and whether there are any changes in their reviewing activities after being exposed to the intervention for twelve weeks. The reviewing activities were categories and analysed for inter-correlations. It is found that the students’ revision activities at first seem to concentrate mostly on Surface Changes-Meaning Preserving Changes activities. However, this changes in the second half of the intervention period where they seem to perform more Meaning Changes-Microstructure Changes and the least is Surface Changes-Formal Changes.

Study on effect of supercritical CO2 on structural ordering and charge transporting property in thiophene-based block copolymer
Authors: Hosokawa Satomi , Tomita Eri , Kanehashi Shinji , Ogino Kenji
Published: January 2022

We reported that supercritical (sc) annealing of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT), and its block copolymers with poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and polystyrene (PSt) brought about improvements in the crystal structure and hole mobility, determined by the space charge limited current (SCLC) measurement. P3HT-b-PEO showed the largest increase in mobility. From the XRD profile, it was found that the treatment with scCO2 increased the crystallite size and crystallinity. UV–vis spectra showed that the effective conjugation length in the scCO2 treated films was increased, compared to the as-spun samples, suggesting that CO2 molecules are incorporated into domains of the second block domains and P3HT amorphous region, and assist to alter the characteristics of the crystalline region. Then, it was considered that the change in the crystalline structure and the improvement of P3HT chains packing led to enhanced mobility. Since PEO is known to have a higher affinity for CO2, the increase of mobility was specifically intensive.

Problematizações sobre metodologias e currículo na promoção da Educação Integral
Authors: Paixão Sergio Vale da
Published: January 2022

Although the  econcept of integralducation is already part of numerous documents that guide the work of the teacher, it seems to us that the concept of what, in fact, is an integral education is not so clear to many educators. This article seeks to discuss some theoretical and conceptual positions that underlie the concept of Integral Education in the official documents that organize the work of the teacher in Brazil, problematizing the active methodologies and the curriculum as paths for the construction of this education. The concept of integral education and full-time schools as they appear in the documentary records, especially the political pedagogical projects of schools, requires that this very important and current theme in the Brazilian education scenario be problematized, especially with the arrival of the BNCC (BRASIL, 2017). From the literature review on the concept of integral education as well as problematizations about active pedagogies and the curriculum, we will seek information to understand what it really means to promote Integral Education in the context of school institutions.
Educação, ciência e verdade em tempos de “miséria do saber”
Authors: Costa Helton Messini
Published: January 2022

The present study seeks to understand the breadth of the phenomena of scientific negationism, revisionism, relativism, as well as the so-called fake news from the context of the structural crisis of capital, which is indeed hyper-dimensioned by the pandemic of COVID-19. We seek to analyze the contribution of post-modern theories that, together with economic and political issues, have propitiated a crisis in the criteria of truth, reality and, above all, in the relevance of the knowledge elaborated in the face of common sense, a context that we call “misery of knowledge”. For such analyzes, we pay attention to the relevance of the method of historical and dialectical materialism in the configuration of the truth category, distancing itself, on the one hand, from a positivist matrix with its proposition of absolute truth and, on the other, from its opposite, that is, from the assumption that there is no idea of ​​truth at all.
Subjetividade e fracasso escolar
Authors: Lasneaux Marcello Vieira
Published: January 2022

School failure occurs when the school requirement exceeds the student's momentary learning ability. From the psychoanalytic perspective and a case study, we sought to recognize the relationship between subjectivity and school failure. Data were obtained from interviews and report analysis of a 17-year-old student complaining of poor academic performance. Based on the literature, it is suggested that school failure would be formulated by issues of rhythms and tensions - which concern the pedagogical expedient of educational institutions but also the Oedipal conflicts, symbolic castration, the quarrels derived from the subject-object relationship. School failure could be visualized as a triangle whose baricenter is learning. At the vertices would be: the student - claimer of this subjectivity; family relationships - which are organized around the tensions of object relations, particularly the mother; the educational institution - which must be appropriated and made aware offering an environment of favorability and personalization for learning to happen Failure would result from the impossibility of this balance and the solution could be based on the convocation of psychotherapy and involvement-acceptance-adaptation at school.

Bone is the most common site to which breast cancer metastasizes and sometimes is the first affected site in a substantial proportion of women with advanced breast cancer. A lot of study has highlighted that imaging modalities visualize different aspects of osseous tissues (cortex or marrow). Imaging bone metastases is problematic because the lesions can be osteolytic, osteoblastic, or mixed, and imaging modalities are based on either direct anatomic visualization of the bone or tumor or indirect measurements of bone or tumor metabolism. Bone imaging by skeletal scintigraphy can be an essential part, and positron emission tomography or single-photon emission computed tomography have a potential of evaluating bone metastases, but no consensus exists as to the best modality for diagnosing the lesion and for assessing its response to treatment. In this review, we discuss the use of each nuclear imaging for bone modality for diagnosing bone metastases from breast cancer

Do ESG Funds Deliver on Their Promises?
Authors: Curtis Quinn , Fisch Jill , Robertson Adriana
Published: January 2022

Corporations have received growing criticism for contributing to climate change, perpetuating racial and gender inequality, and failing to address other pressing social issues. In response to these concerns, shareholders are increasingly focusing on environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) criteria in selecting investments, and asset managers are responding by offering a growing number of ESG mutual funds. The flow of assets into ESG is one of the most dramatic trends in asset management.

But are these funds giving investors what they promise? This question has attracted the attention of regulators, with the Department of Labor and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) both taking steps to rein in ESG funds. The change in administration has created an opportunity to rethink these steps, but the rapid growth and evolution of the market mean regulators are acting without a clear picture of ESG investing.

We fill this gap by offering the most complete empirical overview of ESG mutual funds to date. Combining comprehensive data on mutual funds with proprietary data from the several of the most significant ESG ratings firms, we provide a unique picture of the current ESG environment with an eye to informing regulatory policy. We evaluate a number of criticisms of ESG funds made by academics and policymakers and find them lacking. We find that ESG funds offer their investors increased ESG exposure. They also vote their shares differently from non-ESG funds and are more supportive of ESG principles. Our analysis shows that they do so without increasing costs or reducing returns.

We conclude that ESG funds generally offer investors a differentiated and competitive investment product that is consistent with their labeling. In short, we see no reason to single out ESG funds for special regulation.

Published: January 2022

To date, statistics in OpenLearning have demonstrated that the number of Massive Open Online Courses developed by Malaysia higher education institution is not achieving the target of DePAN 2.0. Hence, this study is aimed at developing a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on Chemistry Laboratory Management Techniques (CLMT) course and investigating the students’ perception of the MOOC. The CLMT MOOC is developed by applying the ADDIE model as the instructional design model. In this regard, analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation are the phases involved. Three experts were appointed to evaluate the content validity of the e-content module and e-assessment module in the MOOC by filling the content validity evaluation form. According to the results, both e-content and e-assessment modules obtained validity index of 1.00. A group of 27 students was involved in the pilot study to answer the reliability questionnaire and the Cronbach’s alpha for the two modules was found to be 0.99 and 0.97, respectively. Another group of 152 students were randomly selected as the respondents of the perception survey. Results from perception questionnaire showed the highest mean score in acceptance construct (M = 4.05, SD = 0.54), followed by instructional design construct (M = 3.96, SD = 0.59) and lastly usage barrier construct (M = 3.03, SD = 0.84). In conclusion, both the e-content and e-assessment modules used in the CLMT MOOC are valid and reliable. Meanwhile, the mean score of undergraduate students on the perception toward the CLMT MOOC was found to be moderately higher. Therefore, it can be inferred that this MOOC will be a useful self-learning and flipped classroom platform for the chemistry degree students, especially amidst the outbreak of COVID-19.

Authors: Gowda Sush Ramakrishna
Published: January 2022

Introduction: Hemiarthroplasty for the management of intracapsular neck of femur fractures is common but current practice in the UK still varies regionally and individually. Guided by the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) we have observed a move towards modern, modular prostheses such as the Exeter V40 Stem but the use of older, monoblock prostheses such as the Thompsons Hemiarthroplasty remains controversial. Use of the Nottingham Hip Fracture Scores (NHFS) can help surgeons stratify patients according to risk and select the most appropriate prosthesis to meet their individual needs.

Materials and Methods: 765 hip hemiarthroplasties were analysed over a 28-month period at a single, high-volume, orthopaedic department in the UK. We calculated the NHFS and recorded the choice of prosthesis. Patients were then followed up for at least a year. Outcomes were mortality and change in residential status.

Results: Six hundred and forty-six (446) patients were treated with monoblock prostheses (mean age=85.6; range 62-105). 319 patients received modular prostheses (mean age=81.0; range 61-98). Patients who were selected to receive a monoblock prosthesis were over twice as likely to be dead at a year (32.87% vs. 13.65%) and over twice as likely to require increased assistance with living (50.12% vs. 23.81%). Amongst patients with equivocal NHFS, those who receive a monoblock stem suffered worse outcomes in all but the very highest risk group, who experienced lower mortality (OR=0.71, CI 0.52-0.96) and change in residential status (OR=0.76, CI 0.58-0.99).

Conclusion: Nottingham Hip Fracture Score (NHFS) can confer predictable outcomes in hip fracture patients treated with modular stems. Modular stems should be the default choice when performing hemiarthroplasties for intracapsular neck of femur fractures. However, in keeping with other studies, we found that in very old, frail, or co-morbid patients, modular stems are not associated with better survival or return to pre-morbid function.

The development of reusable and extensible software for business purposes has been the hallmark of the day. More developers are taking advantage of numerous approaches towards reaching their goals. One such approach is the agile approach in the development of extensible applications which has become so popular since its introduction over a decade ago. Using an agile approach that has a defined value in developing applications portray numerous benefits which have been identified by various scholars pointing out their outcomes as motivating factors of its adoption. With all such outline benefits, there exist some potential obstacles to agile developmental approach which has not been fully addressed. Hence, this article is aimed at analysing the obstacles which software developers face during agile development through a database search and also to guide them on ways to overcome such obstacles.

Ureteral catheters, commonly known as double j stents according to their specific shape, are largely used worldwide with good results to assure proper renal drainage and to overpass ureteral obstacles successfully. This study deals with the aging behavior of polyurethane-based urinary catheters, explanted at different time intervals: 22 days, 29 days, three months, and eight months respectively. TGA (Thermogravimetric analyses) tests showed significant differences in the thermal behavior of polyurethane-based material, especially at eight months, where a higher thermostability was noticed. Also, the DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) curves presented different shapes for the samples of polyurethane-based urinary catheters after three months and eight months. FTIR (Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectrometry) spectra gave a detailed picture of the chemical trans-formation which has occurred within the material at eight months. All the analyses gave an overview of the aging process of polyurethane-based urinary catheters and showed insights into the chemical/ physical transformations that the polymeric material suffers from prolonged usage.

Kenaf is a nonwoody fibrous plant, and its fibre can be potentially used as a reinforcement in the matrix to produce biocomposite materials. The properties of biocomposite materials are highly dependent on the reinforcing material and the matrix used as a binder. This study used kenaf fibre as a reinforcing material with different compositions (10, 20, and 30 wt.%) and different fibre lengths (1 cm and 3 cm) in the matrix using the casting process. Low viscosity epoxy resin (635 thin epoxy resin) with a viscosity of 6 poise was used as the matrix. The results showed that the highest flexural strength, impact strength and shore hardness were obtained at a 30 wt.% kenaf fibre composition with a 1-cm kenaf fibre length, namely, 85 MPa, 338 KJ/m2 and 98 SHD, respectively. The length of the fibre in the matrix affects the mechanical properties of the resulting biocomposite. This condition is caused by kenaf fibres with a length of 1 cm being more dispersed in the matrix than fibres with a length of 3 cm.

The purpose of the study was to examine whether the presence of items that covered cultural questions in the test оn arts for student graphic designers influenced the fairness of the test across different ethnic and social groups. The reason for the study was to address the gap in the development and validation of tests оn arts that include a cultural domain to assess the skills of undergraduate graphic designers. The research design was based on DIF and DTF methods to examine the factorial structure of test data and to identify whether the factorial structure of the test was the same across ethnic and social groups. A one-factor CFA model was applied to perform measurements for categorised ethnic and social status groups to identify whether the factorial structure was similar or identical for them. The goodness-of-fit measures were calculated using the chi-square statistics, CFI, TLI, and RMSEA to identify how the obtained data is consistent with the hypothesised model. The inclusion of local culture-related questions in the tests оn arts to assess the skills of student graphic designers influences the individuals' latent traits which lead to an increase in DIF values. Though there were detected seven items with the DIF for the whole test, the DTF measurements showed that the DIF effect eliminated each out at test level which is related to the fact the certain ethnic groups performed better in answering some specific test items, while certain status groups performed better in answering some other test items. It is noteworthy that DTF for the Ukrainian art (miscellaneous) section was between 0.07 and 0.14 meaning a moderate DTF effect. However, the DTF variance values for the sections of principles of design and principles of art were lower than 0.07 meaning a small effect. Therefore, it could be concluded that small DTF effects found in both the whole test and each test section separately indicated that DIF effects eliminate each other at the test level.

Traffic congestion needs a simulation model to reduce its effects on traffics jams and pollution. The traffic cessation caused by the large number of vehicles exceeding the capacity of the road users. This study applied a stochastic program to the traffic congestion; it causes most of the working hours to be spent on roads that indirectly place a negative impact on economic growth. It also causes serious air pollution that will worsen the overall environmental condition. Data obtained show the factors causing traffic congestion in the city of Medan and with approach the stochastic program model used to solve this problem. Data indicated that there are four factors causing traffic congestion in Medan, which are non-growth of road, economic growth, population growth, and increase of motor vehicle.Population factor; the existence of good population growth caused by natural and migration growth. It concludes that the traffic jams are due to the socio-economic factors; namely the development of community business activities. Also socio-cultural factors; the existence of changes in the pattern of life and public order due to outside influences, communication, and information systems.

This study aims to analyze the benefits of e-commerce for small enterprises and its consequences before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, it examines the effects on the decrease in income of small enterprises and their response to a regulation restricting community activities. It also provides an outline of the support needed by small businesses. Meanwhile, a descriptive analysis and a paired t-test were used to analyze data (525 small enterprises in Indonesia) from an online questionnaire survey between May and June 2021. The results showed several significant discoveries, including the following: first, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a decline in revenue. Second, limits on community activities exacerbate the plight of small enterprises. Third, small enterprises sought several forms of assistance, with working capital accounting for the lion`s share of requests. Finally, substantial variations exist in respondents` perceptions of the benefits of e-commerce before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, these results contribute to the small medium enterprises literature and have significant policy implications for developing countries.
