A plethora of publications have shed light, particularly on the affordances of artificial intelligence (AI) in language education, garnering significant attention, promising transformative impacts on teaching and learning practices. However, the rapid adoption of AI tools has raised ethical concerns regarding data privacy, bias and academic integrity. in response to these concerns, this systematic review aims to explore the responsible and ethical use of AI in language education (REALE) by examining recent literature from 2020 to 2024. The structure of this research revolves around two key questions: What are the emerging patterns and practices in REALE? and What research methodologies have been utilized in studies examining REALE? The researchers selected 9 studies from 65 publications in the Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus databases, following a rigorous screening process based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. These selected studies were analyzed using thematic codes: the objective of the study, methodologies applied, sample, country and the key outcomes reported. The findings reveal a growing trend towards implementing AI in language education, with an emphasis on ethical training and awareness. The review suggests the necessity for educators and policymakers to develop comprehensive guidelines for the responsible and ethical use of AI in language education. It also recommends further research into inclusive and ethical AI practices across different educational levels to foster a more equitable and responsible use of technology in language education.

Over the past decade there has been increasing demand to develop alternatives to the Reichstein process, a largely chemical synthesis by which the majority of vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) is produced. Many studies improve the biotransformation of Reichstein intermediate, but no natural bacterial strain is capable of catalyzing the biosynthesis of intermediates in single step fermentation. The study aimed to Isolate and identify bacterial strains have the ability to produce Ascorbic acid and detect their ability to be cultivated on plant wastes as substrate. In this study a total of Seventy-five different bacterial colonies of acetic acid bacteria were isolated from eight different samples. The most potent isolate was identified by 16S rRNA and phylogenetic tree relationship showed that the isolated strain was novel and named Gluconobacter oxydans st SW with accession number OP429626. The optimal levels of different nutritional and cultural variables were reached. The data revealed that the yield of ascorbic acid was increased from 7.17 g/l to 10.348 g/l. The effect of low doses of gamma radiation was tested. For Gluconobacter oxydans st. SW, the highest ascorbic acid yield was obtained was 20.480 g/l at activation radiation dose 1.2 kGy compared with 10.34 g/l from the parent isolate at the optimum fermentation conditions. It was observed that the radiated Gluconobacter oxydans st SW can adapt to the waste’s hydrolysate more than the un-radiated one. The highest yield of ascorbic acid (21.2 g/l) was obtained from fermentation broth containing 70% supplemented hydrolsate and 30% synthetic fermentation broth.

Authors: Amos Abidemi Ogunola  , Adriana N Dugbartey
Published: November 2024

The increasing burden of student debt in the United States has become a significant economic challenge, affecting millions of borrowers and influencing broader economic trends. With over $1.7 trillion in student loan debt, many borrowers struggle with understanding complex repayment plans, managing interest rates, and avoiding default. This paper explores the potential of AI-powered financial tools in transforming student debt management and enhancing financial literacy. It examines how artificial intelligence (AI) can provide personalized solutions to borrowers, helping them navigate loan repayment options, optimize debt management strategies, and improve their financial decision-making. By analysing the key AI tools currently in use—such as budgeting apps, refinancing platforms, and debt consolidation services—this paper demonstrates how AI can simplify and automate the often overwhelming process of student debt management. Furthermore, the paper discusses the role of AI in improving financial literacy, particularly by offering borrowers real-time insights into their financial status and providing customized advice. This integration of AI with financial education helps to build a more financially literate population, better equipped to manage student debt and achieve long-term economic stability. The paper also addresses ethical considerations, such as data privacy and the risk of bias in AI algorithms, and proposes strategies for mitigating these challenges. By focusing on AI-driven innovations, the paper argues that these tools have the potential to revolutionize the way student debt is managed in the U.S., ultimately enhancing economic mobility and reducing the long-term financial strain on borrowers.

Published: November 2024

Air Conditioners (AC) are essential electronic products for residential and industrial buildings in tropical countries or during warm weather in general. The penetration ratio of electronic Air Conditioners (AC) has been increasing every year. Data collection and processing were conducted directly by the author through observation, measurement, and calculation on the heat exchanger production of Air Conditioners (AC). In the production cost of Air Conditioners (AC), the heat exchanger accounts for the second highest cost after the compressor making up 19% of the total cost. The high cost is caused by pipe leaks, with a percentage of 73.7%. This research aims to analyze the improvement of Air Conditioner (AC) production quality using the Six Sigma method. The defect rate in the heat exchanger, evaluated through the Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control (DMAIC) method originating from Six Sigma, was found to be 1,144.8 defects per million opportunities. Further analysis was conducted with the Failure Tree Analysis (FTA) and Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) methods. This research was conducted at XYZ company by conducting interviews and observations for 3 months. FMEA and FTA analysis resulted in the top two failure risks based on the Risk Priority Number (RPN): flaring diameter too big and unstable brazing skill. In the manual brazing process, it was found that work by operators with level A certification produced 9% below standard outcomes. An improvement was obtained by changing the punch flaring size to 8.5mm and conducting skill certification and training for brazing operators. The results of the proposed improvement implementation led to a reduction in the DPMO value to 403.35, equivalent to a decrease of 64.7%. The defect ratio in production decreased by 38.1%, exceeding the previous target of 26.2%, equivalent to $31.96/month/unit. The results of this study are horizontal, allowing the implementation of improvements made in the heat exchanger production process to be expanded to other cooling electronic production processes.

The extensive utilization of composite materials has spurred the advancement of diverse joining techniques suitable for components constructed from such materials. This study focuses on the examination of two specific types of joints: single lap and joggle lap joints. The specimens utilized were composed of unidirectional carbon fiber composite combined with vinyl ester resin, manufactured via the vacuum-assisted resin infusion method. Vinyl ester adhesives were employed in the bonding process, with the joint surfaces undergoing sanding treatment prior to testing. Mechanical testing was conducted on the specimens according to ASTM D5868 standard, employing a constant crosshead speed until failure occurred. The test results reveal that the shear strength of single lap joints surpasses that of joggle lap joints. Within the single lap joint configuration, a mixed failure mode comprising both adhesive and cohesive failure is observed. Conversely, in joggle lap joints, substrate delamination is prevalent, suggesting the predominance of peel stress during loading.

Published: November 2024

The process of disposing of municipal solid waste through burial or sanitary landfill is one of the most common practices in various countries of the world. However, designing landfill sites and choosing the best site is not an easy process, because the identification and selection process includes strict rules and regulations. Geographic Information System (GIS) and Analytical Hierarchy (AHP), a Multi-criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) approach, allowed for the identification of an appropriate dump site in Babil Governorate, about 35 km south of Baghdad. Ten factors were used to choose the ideal burial place; each criterion was shown on a map on the geographic information system (GIS). The AHP matrix was then used to establish the weights of the 10 criteria, which include land use, settlements, rural regions, highways, irrigation networks, groundwater depth, rivers, land slope, and governorate and municipal boundaries. The consistency ratio was another tool used to evaluate the appropriateness of the weight scales; it was found to be 0.08371, which was less than the value of 0.1. This indicates that the hypotheses selected by the AHP matrix were suitable for the study. The results of the research show that a site of 10,563,143 square meters is ideal for meeting the governorate's land need of 7173372 square meters between 2025 and 2040. Four more factors were added to the procedures used to choose the locations of the intermediate collection stations: residential areas, garbage production hubs, highways, and proximity to the disposal site. Furthermore, the AHP matrix was used to evaluate it and calculate the weights of the previously specified criterion. The results of the research suggested that the ideal locations to facilitate the collection and disposal of municipal solid waste are seven intermediate collection sites.

Published: November 2024

The impact of Azolla compost (AC) substitution for synthetic N fertilizer (NF) on nitrate leaf content and agronomic performances of green onion in Ultisols have not been well understood. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the effects of equal replacing NF with AC on growth, yield, and nitrate accumulation in the green onion leaf. The polybag trial was performed in June 2020 on the crop research farm of the Agriculture Faculty in a completely randomized design with six treatments in five replications. Green onion was subjected to five 92 kg ha−1 N equal combinations of NF and AC, i.e., NF100 (100% NF+0% AC), NF75 +AC25 (75% NF+25% AC), NF50 +AC50 (50% NF+50% AC), NF25 +AC75 (25% NF+75% AC), and NF0 +AC100 (0% NF+100 % AC) and no NF and AC as a control. Results demonstrated that NF+AC treatments significantly improved plant height, leaf number, tiller number, stem diameter, and plant fresh weight. Treatment of NF25+AC75 resulted in similar responses to the recommended dose of N fertilizer, as evidenced by plant height, number of green leaves, root fresh weight, shoot dry weight, tiller numbers per hill, stem diameter, shoot fresh weight, and plant fresh weight. Lower leaf nitrate contents occurred under increased substitution of NF with AC. Thus, partial substitution of NF with AC could be a sustainable option for improving growth and yield while reducing nitrate accumulation in the leaf of green onion in Ultisols.

Published: November 2024

Lettuce is a horticultural plant with a short harvest time that is a popular vegetable choice for planting in polybags in urban areas. Planting media for cultivating plants in  polybags vary widely. The use of nutrient-poor and acidic subsoil in Ultisols as a planting medium requires additional organic matter and lime that are suitable for the plants. This study evaluated the use of subsoil as a medium for growing lettuce by adding chicken manure and dolomite. The Completely Randomized Design was used, which consisted of two factors and 6 replications. The first factor was the dose of chicken manure consisting of: 0 ton/ Ha, 10 tons/Ha (38g /polybag), 20 tons/ Ha (76g/ polybag), and 30 tons/ Ha (115g /polybag). The second factor was the dolomite dose, consisting of no dolomite, 1xAl-exch, and 2xAl-exch. A dose of 20 tons /Ha of chicken manure combined with   1xAl-dd of dolomite increased the growth of plants. The treatment of chicken manure at 20 tons/Ha showed growth and yield of lettuce that were as good as a treatment dose of 30 tons/ Ha. The highest fresh weight (123.05g) was obtained from 30 tons/Ha-chicken manure treatment. The appropriate dose of dolomite for lettuce growth and yield was 1xAl-exch, which resulted in a plant fresh Asiahoki77 berusaha untuk memastikan bahwa pengalaman berjudi tetap menyenangkan dan aman bagi semua pengguna.

Post-publication critique, such as letters-to-the-editor, can contribute to the validity andtrustworthiness of scientific research. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of the policy andpractice of post-publication critique at: (a) randomly-selected (N = 100), and (b) prominent (N =100) psychology journals. In 2023, an explicit submission option for post-publication critiquewas available at 23% (95% CI [16% to 32%]) of randomly sampled psychology journals and38% of the most prominent psychology journals. Journals sometimes imposed limits on thelength and time allowed to submit critiques. We manually inspected two random samples ofempirical articles published in 2020 (N = 101 articles per sample), estimating the prevalence ofpost-publication critique to be 0% (95% CI [0% to 3.7%]) in psychology journals generally and1% (95% CI [0.2% to 5.4%]) in the most prominent psychology journals. The policy and practiceof post-publication critique is seriously neglected in psychology journals.
Who is a Mating Rival? Women Track Other Women’s Intent and Capacity to Compete for Mates
Authors: Merrie Laureon Allison , Krems Jaimie , byrd-craven Jennifer
Published: November 2024

What characteristics make a person a formidable competitor or a threatening rival? Regardless of the realm of competition, a rival’s perceived level of competitive threat should comprise both rival willingness and ability to compete for a mutually desired outcome. We apply this logic to heterosexual women’s intrasexual mating competition, where women compete for male mates primarily in the domains of sexual accessibility and physical attractiveness—characteristics men value in female partners. Specifically, we leverage a basic task analysis to identify two central components driving perceptions of women’s mating threat: their competitive intent (i.e., willingness to compete for mates, cued by mate-seeking behavior) and their competitive capacity (i.e., ability to attract mates, cued by physical attractiveness). We predicted that a) mate-seeking behavior (e.g., flirting) would drive perceptions of women’s competitive intent, while b) physical attractiveness would drive perceptions of women’s competitive capacity. However, some behavior (e.g., wearing revealing clothing) can impact perceptions of women’s mate-seeking behavior and attractiveness, simultaneously shaping perceptions of women’s competitive intent and capacity (and thus competitive threat). As such, we further predicted that c) appearance enhancement drives perceptions of target women’s mating threat via multiple routes. We find support for these predictions across three experiments with U.S. college students (N=1169), a demographic engaged in high mating competition. Across studies, we also explored how women's perceived competitive intent and capacity affect women targets’ potential social outcomes, including being targeted for intrasexual aggression, and opportunities for intrasexual friendships. Findings provide a framework to guide future work on women’s sociality.
What is 'high-risk research'? Comparing the social sciences and humanities and the natural sciences
Authors: Hamann Julian , Stein Daniel
Published: November 2024

Although high-risk research is a key concern for research policy and science studies, there is little knowledge about what funding agencies or researchers mean by risks. This paper draws on 80 grant proposals from the social sciences and humanities (SSH) and the natural sciences (NSC) that have been submitted to the Reinhart Koselleck funding program of the German Research Foundation. The qualitative analysis shows both similarities and differences in how applicants in the two fields claim risks: in both fields, the most prominent notions refer to results and methodologies. While results at risk are interpreted similarly, methodological risks differ between the two fields. The analysis also reveals a greater variety of different risks in the SSH compared to the NSC. The paper suggests that research policy and science studies should avoid treating “riskiness” as a given and consider different notions of risk across a disciplinary spectrum that includes the SSH.
Who Do They Think You Are? Inconsistencies in Self- and Proxy-Reports of Education Within Families
Authors: Lavest Chloé , Ferry Mathieu , Ichou Mathieu , Präg Patrick
Published: November 2024

Estimates of intergenerational educational mobility are generally computed using a combination of self- and proxy-reports of one's and one's parents' education. Such reports are easily collected, offering a cost-effective alternative to collecting multiple self-reports or register data. However, the bias that proxy-reports could introduce in the measurement of intergenerational educational mobility is rarely assessed. Our study fills this gap and assesses how reliable people are when they report their parents' or their child's educational attainment. We find that both parents and children tend to underestimate the educational distance between themselves and their family members, thus inflating estimates of educational reproduction. This trend is larger when children act as proxy-reporters. Another limitation of using children’s proxy-reported information is the number of missing answers, which is lower when parents are asked to proxy-report their child's education. In a simulation exercise, we establish that the bias introduced by proxy reports is not negligible, with self-reported intergenerational regression coefficients being 16\% higher when a proxy-report is used.
Flood Inundation Mapping of Bagmati River and Impact Assessment on Building Infrastructures on Terai Plains of Nepal
Authors: Nepal Sushanta , G.C. Kaushal Chandra
Published: November 2024

Starting from the northern hills of Kathmandu Valley, the Bagmati River flows through the Mahabharat and Siwalik ranges and discharges at Padherodovan into the Terai region of Nepal. The river poses a flood hazard in the downstream areas, especially during the monsoon season. This study is about mapping flood inundation in a 2D unsteady flow simulation model using HEC RAS. The study was conducted on ~16 km stretches of the Bagmati River in Bagmati Municipality of Sarlahi district. River discharge values for various return intervals were calculated using instantaneous discharges, and probable floods of 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100-year return periods were simulated for developing flood inundation maps. Flood inundation maps depict varying depths during different return periods, offering insights into the fluctuation of flood depth across the floodplain with increasing discharge. During a 100-year return period flood, which was almost equivalent to the flood of 1993, around 5061 buildings were affected, while during a 5-year return period flood, around 2511 buildings were affected. This study provides essential data for understanding flood patterns, aiding in land use zoning and flood risk mitigation for risk informed development along the Bagmati River.
The Sounds of Conflict: Lexical Representation of Anger in Listening Activities from Modern ELT Coursebooks
Authors: Matusz Łukasz
Published: November 2024

Modern coursebooks serve a fundamental function in contemporary ELT practice. This paper discusses the problem of representation of anger in listening activities from selected ELT coursebooks issued by leading publishing companies. Thirteen coursebooks form three internationally-recognized ELT series for adult learners of English were analysed for the conflictive dialogues presented in their audio materials, as well as for the ways in which the anger of the Speaker(s) was expressed. The result of the analysis shows that interpersonal exchanges portrayed in the database coursebooks were largely oriented towards the expression of polite interpersonal beliefs, the culture of positivity and attitude of agreement and cooperation. In situations where conflict was presented in the recordings, anger was expressed primarily through prosodic features of speech, followed by the presence of exclamations and certain non-verbal vocalisations. No instances of swearing and expletive interjections, a common way of expressing negative emotions in everyday informal communication, were found in the database. The analysis confirms some of the observations and criticisms concerning the global ELT coursebooks. While understanding publishers’ caution and decidedly refraining from advocating unrestricted use of taboo language in recorded ELT materials, this paper points to the importance of realistic representation of conflictive and argumentative interpersonal communication, not just for the aim of presenting different contexts of English use, but also for the practical applications outside the realm of foreign language learning.
EFL Teacher Preparedness to Include Learners with Dyslexia: Israeli Context (ICFSLA 2023)
Authors: Nijakowska Joanna , Russak Susie
Published: November 2024

The aim of this study was to investigate Israeli English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers’ perceived preparedness to include learners with dyslexia in mainstream classrooms (TEPID) and to verify whether there were cross-country differences in this respect. The study examined the effect of demographic variables on Israeli EFL teachers’ TEPID and identified their professional development needs around inclusive teaching. Principal components analysis of the TEPID scale led to a two-factor structure, that is, knowledge about dyslexia and self-efficacy in implementing inclusive instructional practices with dyslexic EFL learners (F1), and stance towards inclusion (F2). Statistically significant effects were found for training, highest level of education, years and type of teaching experience with dyslexic learners, and type of certification in relation to F1, yet, only type of teaching experience with dyslexic EFL learners (direct contact and personal involvement in teaching) impacted teacher stance towards inclusion (F2). Additionally, Israeli teachers differed significantly from Polish and Cypriot teachers on both factors of the TEPID, but not from Greek teachers. Moreover, both Greek and Israeli teachers evaluated their knowledge and skills (F1) as well as stance towards inclusion (F2) higher than Polish and Cypriot teachers. Teachers stressed the need for practical information and training about how to teach students with dyslexia. Implications regarding content of teacher training are discussed.

By employing a qualitative library stu­dy approach, this research analyzes primary references for mazhab compa­rison, including Al-Fiqhu ‘alā Al-Madzāhib Al-Arba’ah by Abdu al-Rahman al-Jaziri and Al-Mausū’ah Al-Fiqhiyah Al-Kuwaitiyyah by some Kuwait scholars. The findings reveal that several fiqh-related topics in the textbooks, such as the conditions for valid ablution, requirements to be­come an imam, timing for zakat payment and identification of zakat reci­pients, reflect some anti-madzhab perspectives. These perspectives can lead to al-masyaqqah (difficulties) in worship practices within the com­munity. The study highlights the need for a thorough evaluation of Islamic education textbooks, recommending that fiqh materials incorporate tradi­tional madzhab frameworks to enhance their alignment with Islamic reli­gious education standards. This research contributes to the ongoing dis­cour­se on curriculum development and the importance of maintaining doctrinal integrity in educational resources.
Axiopsychologigal model of posttraumatic growth of personality
Authors: Nazar Yuriy
Published: November 2024

The article provides analysis of existing models of post-traumatic growth (PTG) and offers a new axiological approach to understanding this phenomenon. PTG, as explored through the lens of the principle of integral subjectivity, emphasizes the role of value-based aspects in the process of personal growth following traumatic experiences. The article identifies and critically assesses the key limitations of traditional models, which often overlook the importance of the value and meaning-making sphere in personal development post-trauma.
To address these limitations the article’s aim is to create a conceptual model of PTG that integrates key psychological constructs, such as resilience, coping strategies, self-efficacy, and well-being. Axiological approach to understanding PTG underscores the importance of value-driven personal growth, positing that the reconstruction of one’s value system and the reassessment of life priorities are crucial to the process of recovery and personal development following traumatic events. The model further highlights the dynamic interplay between individual psychological resources, such as resilience and self-efficacy, and broader socio-cultural factors that shape the trajectory of post-traumatic growth.
Axiopsychological model expands the scope of PTG research by incorporating value and meaning-making dimensions, providing a more comprehensive understanding of how individuals experience positive transformation in the aftermath of trauma. By integrating the notions of coping mechanisms and well-being into the axiological framework, the model has a potential to offer practical implications for psychological interventions and therapeutic practices aimed at fostering personal growth and resilience in trauma survivors. The conceptual model presented in the article is intended to serve as a foundation for future research and the development of more effective support systems that take into account both psychological and value-driven factors in promoting post-traumatic growth among individuals who have experienced significant adversity.

The article presents a study of the peculiarities of the attitude of older preschool children towards themselves and significant adults according to O. Etkind's "Color Test of Relationships" method, which is based on the fact that the most important characteristics of psychological processes are reflected in color associations; the results of the study, which was conducted on the basis of child development center No. 53 "ABVGDEYKA" in Zhytomyr, and included 60 children aged 5-6 years and older, are presented; the procedure for the examination of older preschool children is described, which was carried out individually in three stages: the study of associations, a short rest, determination of the rank (list) of colored cards; the interpretation of the obtained results was carried out in two stages: at the first stage, an analysis of the color-associative answers of the respondents was carried out, which were considered holistically, in their relationship, based on which an idea was formed about the meaningful features of the attitude of older preschoolers towards themselves and significant adults; at the second stage, a formalized analysis of color-associative responses was carried out with the help of valence and normativity characteristics; in the course of the research, it was found that older preschool children in most cases have a positive attitude towards significant persons, which indicates the presence of a strong emotional connection with them, closeness, mutual respect and the significance of the identification process; according to the total deviation zones, which indicate the current emotional state of the child, it was determined that the majority of respondents have a normal emotional state, but there is a small number of children in whom negative emotions prevail.
Personal understanding of family duties at the pre-marriage stage
Authors: Karpova Dariia , Pashchenko Tetiana
Published: November 2024

The article reveals problematic issues related to the individual's understanding of family responsibilities at the premarital stage. It is clarified that the concept of "understanding of future family obligations and one's responsibility for their fulfillment" reflects conscious knowledge, understanding by the individual of the meaning of the set of moral obligations of a family member to a marriage partner and family;  the concept of "family man" means a person who has features necessary (important) for family life.
It was found that to date there is no clear justification of the moral obligations of a family member in the scientific literature, which significantly complicates the process of their knowledge and understanding by young people at the premarital stage. It was found that the majority of young people get an understanding of the essence and list of duties of marriage partners directly in the parental family. The influence of the parental family becomes fundamental for the development of the marriage potential of the individual, the formation of the future family member, which subsequently affects the harmony of interpersonal relations in the future family. The solution to this psychological problem requires a clear scientific substantiation of the list of important responsibilities of marriage partners as a type and measure of proper behavior of participants in family relations, as well as to determine when, exactly where, by whom and how this issue will be explained to young people.
Psychological analysis of self-regulation аnd coping behaviour of a maritime transport specialist in stressful situations: gender aspect
Authors: Soroka Olena
Published: November 2024

The relevance of the research is due to the presence in the scientific literature of contradictory data on the ways of coping behaviour in men and women in a stressful situation. One of the factors that determines the effectiveness of a person's social and psychological adaptation to life under stress is the ability to psychologically overcome such situations. It is especially important to study the peculiarities of coping behaviour and issues of self-regulation of behavioural reactions of specialists of the urban transport sector in difficult situations.
The theoretical analysis of the study of coping behaviour and peculiarities of self-regulation in situations of stress in middle-aged men and women in maritime transport has shown ambiguity in the interpretation of this issue. A comparative analysis of differences in behaviour in stressful situations and the choice of coping strategies in middle-aged men and women revealed significant differences. Middle-aged men statistically significantly have a higher severity of stress and the degree of manifestation of stress symptoms. Middle-aged women experience stressful situations in their lives more emotionally. Men have higher rates of coping resources, which indicates more effective mechanisms of self-regulation in a stressful situation. In a stressful situation, middle-aged men are much more likely than women to resort to constructive coping strategies (social contact). However, in a critical situation, men are more likely to choose antisocial coping strategies. The study suggests the need to increase attention to the problem of choosing coping strategies and improving the mechanisms of self-regulation of maritime transport professionals under stress. It is necessary to teach them the skills of effective stress management and the use of constructive coping strategies in stressful situations. The pilot study will be especially important for further studying the peculiarities of coping behaviour under stress in men and women and will create a potential opportunity to implement a programme to research this phenomenon on a larger sample involving subjects of other age groups.
TOMADA DE DECISÃO APOIADA: RECONCILIANDO PROTEÇÃO E AUTONOMIA NA TUTELA JURÍDICA DO IDOSO
Authors: Duarte Maria das Graças Fernandes
Published: November 2024

Este estudo confronta dois caminhos distintos na proteção jurídica do idoso brasileiro: o tradicional instituto da interdição e a inovadora Tomada de Decisão Apoiada (TDA), nascida com a Lei Brasileira de Inclusão (Lei nº 13.146/2015). A investigação desvela como este novo mecanismo jurídico reconcilia proteção e autonomia, oferecendo uma via que preserva direitos fundamentais enquanto assegura o necessário amparo legal. O trabalho demonstra que a TDA, ao privilegiar o protagonismo do idoso em suas próprias escolhas, realiza com maior fidelidade os princípios constitucionais da dignidade humana e da autodeterminação, redesenhando os contornos da proteção jurídica na terceira idade.

A sarcoidose pode apresentar alterações multissistêmicas como a doença renal crônica, hepato e esplenomegalia, síndrome do olho seco, anemia crônica e alterações cutâneas, simulando doenças reumatológicas ou vasculites sistêmica. Esse trabalho relata o caso de um jovem paciente portador de doença cavitária e granulomatosa pulmonar não caseosa, associada a alterações multissistêmicas, que sugerem um diagnóstico de sarcoidose. Obteve-se as informações via prontuário, anamnese e exame físico do paciente. Registrou-se em fotografias os métodos diagnósticos e relatórios de interconsultas com especialistas que avaliaram o caso durante a internação. Ainda, revisou-se a literatura atualizada e específica. O caso e a literatura analisada evidenciam uma patologia proteiforme e extremamente complexa, altamente sugestiva de sarcoidose, a qual acompanha-se de alterações pulmonares como cavitações, padrão intersticial e fibrótico em forma de vidro fosco, formação de granulomas não  caseosos e, raramente, necróticos como o caso avaliado. Infelizmente, e como consta na epidemiologia da doença, a causa da morte do paciente foi de origem  respiratória. Mesmo assim, o principal fato que dificultou o tratamento do paciente não   foi a complexidade da enfermidade nem a falta de recursos no SUS, foi o intenso dogma religioso e o viés cultural do paciente e da família que contribuíram ao desfecho fatal do caso.
