Authors: Routhu Sai KG , Akula Venkata SRP , Kalla Venkata G
Published: December 2023

Thermotherapy is a therapeutic approach aimed at alleviating pain, reducing inflammation, and facilitating the wound-healing process through the controlled administration of heat via diverse methodologies. In addition to conventional hot packs and warm water compresses, a myriad of alternative heat modalities is available for therapeutic purposes. Carbon yarn is a nanofiber material that has low density high strength-to-weight ratio. The microscopic crystals of carbon bonded together in an alignment of parallel to the axis. The carbon has unique characteristics of heat resistance and electric conductivity that makes another added use of carbon yarn for thermal therapy for relieve of pain and certain inflammations by allowing the free flow of blood at the applied area. Thus, carbon also has different grades of yarn with differences in their properties and behavior on which our studies have performed for best grade selection. Carbon yarn of 12k and 24k of different lengths have undergone test for their performance. Given the equivalence in functional characteristics between electrical and thermal conductivity, our material selection approach places paramount importance on factors such as electrical efficiency and resistance to high temperatures. This meticulous consideration ensures the creation of an unparalleled and exemplary thermal therapy product. The test outcomes for these carbon yarn samples under various power supply settings have yielded divergent results, yet a notable trend emerges an accelerated heating rate with an increase in current (Amp) while maintaining a constant voltage. The temperature at constant voltage remains the same with the fluctuations of ± 2॰C/min. The objective is to identify a material characterized by minimal electricity consumption and concurrent high-temperature release. Another remarkable attribute of this material is its exceptional ability to rapidly cool to room temperature upon the removal of the power supply. The heat transfer mechanisms, both convective and radiative, exhibited a diminishing trend as the length and number of tows of the simulated carbon fibre electric heating wire increased. Particularly noteworthy was the substantial dominance of convective heat transfer over radiative heat transfer, unequivocally highlighting convective heat transfer as the primary mode for dissipating heat in the carbon fibre electric heating wire.

A fisioterapia tem papel atuante antes, durante e após a gravidez, visto que ocorrem profundas alterações fisiológicas no corpo materno, e envolve diferentes sistemas. Uma das alterações na biomecânica na mulher ocorre na parede abdominal no tempo em que o feto está crescendo no seu organismo, ocorrendo um estiramento na musculatura podendo acarretar o afastamento do músculo reto abdominal, denominado como diástase do músculo reto abdominal. O objetivo deste estudo é verificar, através dos estudos já realizados, os efeitos da cinesioterapia no tratamento na diástase pós gestacional. Para alcançar respostas acerca do tema proposto foi desenvolvido uma Revisão Bibliográfica de literatura, de maneira qualitativa e descritiva. Foram selecionados artigos científicos nas bases eletrônicas SciELO, MedLine, PEDro e livros, com palavras em português e em inglês, utilizando-se como   descritores: “Fisioterapia”, “Diástase”, “Pós gestacional”, “Cinesioterapia”, “Physiotherapy”, “diastasis”, “post gestational”, “kinesiotherapy”. Neste estudo, utilizamos o critério de inclusão de artigos que estavam condizentes com a temática estudada e foram excluídos pesquisas com pacientes com problemas neurológicos. Com base nesses estudos constatamos que a cinesioterapia é eficaz no acompanhamento imediato da fisioterapia e ajuda a minimizar os processos patológicos que desenvolvem na gestação como a diástase do músculo reto abdominal, restaurando a imagem corporal da mulher.
PERSPECTIVAS SOBRE A IDENTIDADE DE GÊNERO E TRANSGENERIDADE NA SOCIEDADE
Authors: Dums Willian
Published: December 2023

As questões de gênero e sexualidade no Brasil passaram por diversas e extensas mudanças através dos anos, o que levou a ganhar notoriedade no meio científico e jurídico, englobando a luta pela igualdade e respeito social. Está ideação do gênero estar vinculado exclusivamente ao nascimento corresponde a padrões binários, levando a exclusão, ao não reconhecimento e invalidação de mulheres e homens trans. No Brasil observamos que mulheres e homens transgêneros estão expostos a maiores chances de vulnerabilidade e violência, seja ela racial, sexual, física e verbal, a exposição a estes fatores levam a retardo e dificuldade no processo de aceitação e de transição ao gênero, induzindo de forma direta a danos psicossociais, diante disto, o objetivo geral foi analisar o perfil psicossocial de indivíduos transexuais e transgêneros e as repercussões deste perfil em sua vida diária. Este estudo se caracteriza como uma revisão sistemática da literatura, do tipo descritiva e retrospectiva, com manuscritos provenientes de múltiplas bases de dados, com critérios de inclusão e exclusão. Observamos que, 73,7% apresentaram pensamentos suicidas, 84% relataram sofrimento com o corpo, 91,96% referem violência verbal, 37% apresentaram depressão moderada a grave, e em todas as amostras foi relatado a dificuldade do acesso a saúde, encontrando barreiras como o preconceito e violência. Observamos que o acesso a saúde, educação e trabalho ainda são campos muito discutidos quando correlacionamos a população transgênero, as medidas devem ser comunitárias, englobando não somente a população trans, mas, pessoas cisgêneros, elucidando suas dúvidas e reprimindo toda e qualquer forma de preconceito. Evidenciamos que devemos combater o fundamentalismo que leva desordem, promove o caos e a intolerância contra pessoas trans e travestis, defendo assim os pouquíssimos direitos que esta massa tem no Brasil, recordando da mesma forma que, os direitos já conquistados são inegociáveis e que a luta histórica do movimento LGBTQIA+ não deve ser combatida e sim respeitada.

O PAPEL DAS MEDIDAS PROTETIVAS NA PREVENCÃO DA VIOLÊNCIA DOMÉSTICA
Authors: RAMOS BOMFIM NATÃ , RAMOS NETO JOSÉ FRANCISCO
Published: December 2023

O objetivo principal deste artigo é demonstrar as medidas protetivas adotadas por alguns dispositivos da Lei nº 11.340/2006, cujo artigo 24 se refere a medidas protetivas de emergência. A referida lei prevê medidas preventivas como alternativas à prisão, no entanto, essas medidas muitas vezes revelam-se ineficazes quando vistas sob uma perspectiva específica: elas podem funcionar como uma forma de coerção contra o infrator e, ao mesmo tempo, como um meio de proteção para as mulheres que, há muito tempo, enfrentam desigualdades na sociedade. Todas essas medidas têm como objetivo fundamental "garantir o direito das mulheres a uma vida livre de violência". Conforme estabelecido na lei, um juiz pode autorizar essas medidas a pedido do Ministério Público ou a pedido da própria vítima. No último caso, não é necessário o envolvimento de um advogado, tampouco a realização de audiência das partes ou manifestação do Ministério Público.

Published: December 2023

Introdução: Visto que os procedimentos odontológicos podem acarretar dor e, consequentemente, medo nos pacientes, foram desenvolvidas várias opções de anestésicos para um melhor efeito a depender da necessidade do paciente. Ao mesmo tempo, o número de pacientes portadores de doenças sistêmicas apresentou um aumento evidente com o passar dos anos e se tornou imprescindível que o cirurgião dentista possua conhecimento sobre essas múltiplas desordens sistêmicas que fogem do padrão da normalidade, como hipertensão, diabetes mellitus, cardiopatias, gestação, entre outros. Objetivos: Este estudo tem como objetivo avaliar o conhecimento dos graduandos do curso de Odontologia da Universidade Federal de Campina Grande acerca da utilização de anestésicos locais frente a condições sistêmicas. Metodologia: A presente pesquisa trata-se de um estudo transversal, do tipo exploratório, com abordagem quanti-qualitativa, no qual será realizado um questionário com os graduandos de Odontologia que já tenham cursado a disciplina de anestesiologia. Resultados: Uma considerável parte da amostra foi composta por acadêmicos do sexo feminino que pertenciam ao 6º período, onde a maioria atendia pacientes na clínica escola de Odontologia. De acordo com os resultados apresentados, apenas quatro das dez perguntas a respeito da utilização de anestésicos locais, tiveram respostas corretas. Conclusão: A presente pesquisa indica que os graduandos do curso de Odontologia da UFCG apresentam certo déficit de conhecimento acerca de assuntos relacionados ao uso de anestésicos locais frente a condições sistêmicas. Os resultados apresentados durante a pesquisa apontam a carência de conhecimento e a probabilidade de reações adversas devido à incorreta escolha anestésica.

The changing assessment of risk for young investors
Authors: Beck Kristine L. , Chiu Hsin-Hui , Timmerman Inga
Published: December 2023

Investment advice is changing to incorporate new products and platforms, and the rate of change is likely to accelerate as millennials and Gen Z increase their involvement in investment markets. Using survey methodology, we examine the changing landscape of risk tolerance for young people, concluding that the typical risk assessment tools advisors use may not be as applicable to the next generation of investors. We find that the components that drive willingness to take risk are interest in investments, self-reported investment risk tolerance, and ownership of investment accounts. Our findings indicate that it is time to start assessing risk differently.1,2,3
Assessing the relative need and demand for financial education programs
Authors: Davis Brent J. , Richardson David P. , Seligman Jason S.
Published: December 2023

We measure the relative need and demand for financial education programs among graduate stu- dents at a large university system. We find that self-assessed and measured financial literacy is sig- nificantly related to interest and demand for financial education. Individuals who self-report a high level of financial literacy but have low measured financial literacy are significantly less likely to be interested in financial education, while the opposite is true for financially literate individuals self- reporting a low level of financial literacy. Our study adds to research showing the importance of both believed and actual financial literacy measures and has implications for financial education programs.
Timing and frequency of financial education and positive financial behaviors
Authors: Augustin Lua A. V. , Martin Terrance K.
Published: December 2023

The association between timing and frequency of financial education and financial behaviors has not been studied in tandem. Various studies indicate the more financial education individuals have, the better their chances of making quality financial decisions. In addition to receiving financial edu- cation, the timing and frequency of that education may be relevant to overall decision quality. Early and frequent exposures are expected to have a compounding effect on positive financial behaviors. Using the 2015 wave of the National Financial Capability Study, we found that the timing and fre- quency of financial education are positively associated with positive financial behaviors. This is important because it indicates that the more individuals know about their finances the more likely they are to engage in actions that will have a positive association with their financial futures.

Colourism is a form of discrimination based on skin tone in which lighter-skinned individuals are favoured over darker-skinned individuals. This phenomenon that is perpetuated by the global beauty industry and the media have shown to cause damaging mental and emotional effects that can last for generations. Past studies have highlighted the effects and perpetuation of colourism but not the process of how one would have to overcome these challenges and embrace their own skin colour; hence, the current study aims to unlock the knowledge on this missing key component. The objective of this research was to study the experience of embracing one’s skin colour after facing colourism among Malaysian Indian young adults. A basic interpretive qualitative research design was adopted to explore the process of how seven female Malaysian Indian young adults, in the age range of 22 to 32 embrace their skin colour following their experience with colourism. Through purposive sampling, selected participants were interviewed online using semi-structured questions. Braun and Clarke's six phases of thematic analysis (2006) were employed to analyse the data collected. The findings of this study revealed the emergence of eight themes, ‘Status quo’, ‘Initial exposure’, ‘Support system’, ‘Actively seeking to validate examples’, ‘Seeking like-minded others’, ‘Transformation’, ‘Advocate for change’ and ‘Generational empowerment’ all of which have formed a framework on the process of embracing one’s skin colour. Consequently, the result of the participants’ experience in this study, created a path to empower and shed light on how one may embrace their skin colour following their experience with colourism.

Performance of laying hens fed diets incorporated with feather-based feed additive
Authors: CAISIN Larisa , CARA Alla
Published: December 2023

A comprehensive and in-depth understanding of modern industrial poultry production technology is a vital condition for the development of poultry enterprises. Among the factors that determine poultry farming's development, the state and development of the feed base are of paramount importance. One of the promising directions for organizing rational poultry feeding based on self-produced feed is the use of new feed sources in compound feeds that have a multifaceted positive impact on poultry health. This study aimed to determine whether feeding feather meal induces changes in the body weight of laying hens, feed consumption, and egg production. The experiment was conducted on laying hens of the Hy-Line Brown W-36 breed without beak trimming, aged from 21 to 34 weeks at an industrial poultry farm. The chickens were placed in standard cages arranged in 6 tiers (with eight chickens per cage) and were distributed into five randomized groups. Four diets were formulated with the inclusion of feather-based feed additives in the base diet at levels of 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, or 3.5 kg per ton, while the control group was maintained on the standard diet. Research results using feather meal as part of the compound feed for laying hens have revealed that the inclusion of this additive had a positive impact on the live weight dynamics of Hy-Line Brown laying hens. Positive trends in absolute live weight gains were observed in the experimental groups compared to the control group, with EG1 showing an increase of 56.78 g (4.8%), EG2 with 43.66 g (3.7%), EG3 with 33.26 g (2.8%), and EG4 with 25.75 g (2.1%). The highest retention rate of laying hens was recorded in the first (EG 1) and second (EG 2) experimental groups: 98.9% and 97.9% respectively. The difference in retention between the first experimental group and the control group was 4.1%, while between the second experimental and control groups, it was 3.1%. The feather meal feed additive is an effective protein supplement, and research has revealed its positive influence on live weight gains and the survival of laying hens. The most effective level is 2 kg per ton of compound feed, which can be explained by the data observed in EG1.

Hastanelerde, teşhis koymak amacıyla pratisyen ya da uzman hekimler çeşitli tahlil, tetkik ve tıbbi görüntüleme yöntemlerinden yararlanmaktadır. Bu araştırmada, Türkiye’deki hastanelerde tıbbi görüntüleme sistemlerinin verimlilikleri açısından kıyaslanmaları hedeflenmiştir. Sağlık Bakanlığı tarafından her sene düzenli şekilde yayınlanan sağlık istatistikleri yıllıklarındaki güncel verilerle analizler ve geçmiş yıllar ile karşılaştırmalar yapılmıştır. Veri Zarflama Analizi (VZA)’nde girdi yönelimli model tercih edilmiştir. Çalışmada girdi değişkenleri olarak; ilgili kurumlardaki hekim sayıları ve tıbbi görüntülemede kullanılan cihaz sayıları alınmıştır. Çıktı değişkeni olarak ise kurumlardaki, ilgili cihazlarla yapılan yıllık görüntüleme sayıları kullanılmıştır. Analiz bulgularına göre; Sağlık Bakanlığı’nın tüm görüntüleme yöntemlerinden tam puan aldığı ve verimli kullanım gerçekleştirildiği anlaşılmaktadır. En verimsiz kullanımların, %54 Doppler Ultrason ve %55 Ultrason görüntüleme verimliliği ile üniversite hastanelerinde olduğu görülmektedir. Ayrıca özel hastanelerin BT ve Doppler Ultrason kullanımları da %57 verimlilik düzeyinde kalmıştır. Mamografi görüntülemelerinde, tüm sektörlerde tam etkinlik söz konusudur. Hekimler ve sağlık yöneticileri, sınırlı ve değerli olan kaynakların verimli kullanılmasında zaman zaman sorunlar yaşayabilmektedirler. Sektörlere göre hesaplanan tıbbi görüntüleme cihazlarının verimliliklerinin; yeni cihaz alımları, eksikliklerin tespiti, görüntüleme sayılarında yapılabilecek iyileştirmeler gibi sağlık politikalarında yol gösterici veri olarak kullanılması önerilebilir.

FOUCAULTOVÁ FILOZOFIA A PREČO MÁ SVOJE MIESTO V DEJINÁCH PSYCHOLÓGIE
Authors: Lenghart Daniel
Published: December 2023

Michel Foucault významne prispel k rozvoju psychológie predovšetkým svojou analýzou moci, poznania a diskurzu. Jeho kritika tradičného chápania moci viedla k vzniku koncepcie disciplinárnej moci, ktorá skúma spôsoby, akými inštitúcie kontrolujú jednotlivcov prostredníctvom disciplinárnych metód. Foucaultove metódy archeológie a genealógie ponúkajú pohľad na historický vývoj koncepcie psychológie a úlohu expertov pri vzniku poznania. Foucaultova štúdia governmentality ukázala, ako sa psychologické techniky používajú na formovanie a kontrolu jednotlivcov v rôznych kontextoch. Foucaultova práca ovplyvnila aj skúmanie duševného zdravia, identity a konania s dôrazom na vplyv dynamiky moci na diagnostiku, subjektivitu a rozhodovanie. Koncepty bio-moci a biopolitiky poukazujú na reguláciu tela a sexuality. Diskurzná analýza kriticky skúma, ako jazyk vytvára realitu a ovplyvňuje mocenské vzťahy. Foucaultova filozofia viedla psychológov k prijatiu kontextuálnejších a sociálne inkluzívnejších prístupov, čo ich viedlo k spochybňovaniu esencialistických názorov a k podpore sociálnej spravodlivosti.

The aim of this research was to see how the implementation of character education was used to help students at the Tahfizh Al-Qur'an Islamic Boarding School Daarul 'Uluum Lido Bogor currently become more independent. Approaches used in research This uses a descriptive approach with qualitative methods because,  with approaches and methods studied, it can produce data in the form of written words or direct verbal observations in the study field. Results and findings of research show that institutions boarding schools implement education character by organizing and moving students in a disciplined manner through activities like wake-up time sleep, praying congregation, memorizing the Qur’an, studying, doing activities in the dormitory, and returning to the hostel until meeting time to go back to sleep. The supporting and inhibiting factors for implementing these activities are related to the level of concern and attention that educators have for students, and vice versa, namely students' concern for educators. The inhibiting factors can be found in internal factors found in the students themselves, as well as external factors originating from the environment, teachers, or even the parents of each student.

Democracy as an Impediment to Progress in Developing Countries: Social Constructs versus Realities in Kenya
Authors: Ojwang Frank
Published: December 2023

The question as to whether democracy is succeeding or failing in Sub-Saharan Africa since it was introduced by colonial masters and the West requires further interrogation and critical analysis. The enforcement of democracy is paradoxically observed in the tactfully woven governance system led by surrogate ‘whitened’ African colonialists that extend the colonial mission. The fruits of democracy remain elusive to the developing countries like Kenya, with only a handful of privileged Kenyans benefiting in reality. This paper analyses the social constructs of democracy in developing countries like Kenya using content analysis of 66 open access SCOPUS indexed journals between 1961-2023 and deconstructs the nuances of democracy using bibliometric analysis of 381 SCOPUS indexed articles to illuminate the hidden but harsh realities of the failing democracy as implemented in Kenya. This is a phenomenological analysis that seeks to relay perspectives and behaviors based on the experiences and observation by the researcher. A section of African researchers have questioned the efficacy of democracy as a form of governance in Kenya. The researcher analyses the Kenyan historical epochs from 1900 to 2022 using historical analysis method and as a basis for proving that democracy as implemented is ineffective and inefficient for achieving statehood and equitable development. The paper uses qualitative methods to debunk the fallacy that democracy works in developing countries like Kenya using facts and realities. The article argues that the epistemological injustice presents the systemic research gap as knowledge continues to be a reserve for the knowers that form the majority that set the standards for education globally. This paper uses democratic theory and secondary data sources to analyse whether democracy is the right foundation of the governance system for developing countries in Sub Sahara Africa where the countries have multiethnic societies that have historically had different cultural practices

Published: December 2023

Aim: To compare the efficacy of oral and intravenous iron supplements in the management of anemia in pregnancy. Materials and Methods: Antenatal women between 24 to 34 weeks period of gestation (POG) with mild to moderate anemia were included. They were randomly divided into two groups where Group A - supplemented with oral iron (ferrous sulfate 300mg) and Group B - supplemented with intravenous iron sucrose 200mg. Where Intravenous iron sucrose of 200mg of 4 doses 2 weeks apart (i.e. 24 weeks POG, 26 weeks POG, 28 weeks POG, 30 weeks POG) were infused. Whereas oral iron ferrous sulfate 300mg per day (i.e. from 24 weeks POG – 34 weeks POG) in mild to moderate anemia patients were administered. Results: The mean difference of the haemoglobin between before and after administration of the intravenous iron supplements was observed to very high (2.13 g/dl) when compared to the mean difference of the haemoglobin between before and after administration of the oral iron supplements (0.97 g/dl). The mean difference of the ferritin between before and after administration of the intravenous iron supplements was observed to very high (46.9 ?g/L) when compared to the mean difference of the ferritin between the before and after administration of the oral iron supplements (21.24 ?g/L). Conclusion: In this study, we observed an increase in the mean values of haemoglobin and ferritin after the administration of both intravenous and oral iron supplements. When comparing the mean differences of haemoglobin and ferritin of intravenous iron supplements with oral iron supplements, a significant increase in the values of haemoglobin and ferritin was observed among the pregnant women who were administered with intravenous iron supplements when compared to the pregnant women who were administered with oral iron supplements.
MDM4: A Novel Molecular Target for Treating Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Associated with Aging
Authors: Krishna Mounica P
Published: December 2023

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the end stage of many diffuse parenchymal lung diseases typified by excessive matrix deposition leading to destruction of normal lung architecture and function of unknown etiology. Aging is considered as a strong risk factor and an independent prognostic factor for progression of IPF. However, the exact mechanisms that link the IPF with aging remained unknown, but a number of changes associated with aging revealed in IPF lungs. The p53 gene is a tumour suppressor gene that played a vital role in cancer and it is also known to have activity in fibrosis. MDM2 and MDM4 are the two major inhibitors of p53 .They only differ in their intrinsic E3-ligase activity and promote degradation of p53. MDM4 is a matrix stiffness -regulated negative regulator of p53 highly expressed in fibrotic lesions of IPF. Some of the invitro studies reported that MDM4-p53 pathway promoted lung fibrosis resolution in aged mice, this suggests that MDM4 can be better target against persistent lung fibrosis associated with aging. Also, better knowledge of the pathophysiological mechanisms linking aging to IPF may provide new therapeutic windows to treat this devastating disease.

Published: December 2023

This study reviewed the literature on the effect of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adoption on financial performance of listed manufacturing firms in Nigeria. Forty-five journal articles on the subject published between 2012 and 2021 were analyzed. The study employed a narrative literature review. The review focused on determining whether there wre any significant differences between the financial performance measurements of listed manufacturing firms operating in Nigeria that were prepared using IFRS-compliant financial statements and local Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Second, to determine whether financial performance indicators developed using IFRS-compliant financial statements exhibit superior performance than those developed using local GAAP. The Studies reviewed employed secondary data, which were sourced from the annual reports of companies listed on the Nigerian Exchange Group, and the data were analyzed using panel regression analysis. According to the analysis of the literature, IFRS financial ratios are more accurate performance indicators than local GAAP financial ratios. Further investigation indicated that there were no notable discrepancies between the financial performance indicators (financial ratios) reported by listed manufacturing firms operating in Nigeria under local GAAP and IFRS-compliant financial statements. The study concluded that a company's financial performance (return on capital employed) improves in direct proportion to how closely it complies with IFRS disclosure guidelines. The study recommended that to sustain the positive effects of compulsory and voluntary financial performance disclosure, manufacturing firms should be concerned with the disclosure of important information at every point in time.
