Back Translation as a Tool for Achieving Equivalence of Literary Texts in the Conditions of the Lezgin-Russian Bilingualism
Authors: Barannikova Tatyana B. , Suleimanova Fatimat N.
Published: April 2023

The topicality of the given article is due to the fact that up to the present there has not been a generally accepted classification in the theory of translation that determines the successfulness of the interlingual recoding of the literary text and the level of its correspondence to the original. In modern domestic research, in achieving the equivalence of the original and translating literary texts, more and more attention is paid to experimental methods, but they have not so far received sufficient development. Our article, carried out within the framework of the problem raised, describes an experiment based on the use of back translation in secondary literary text formation in the conditions of Lezgin-Russian bilingualism. The relevance of such a study is also determined by the fact that the organization and staging of translation experiments in order to analyze translation as a process and as a result can act as a tool to improve the quality of translation and professional training of translators, which is especially important for the preservation of the languages and cultures of indigenous minorities of the Russian Federation. The results of the proposed work may be of interest to researchers in the fields of both particular and general translation studies in their various aspects, as well as be used in the development of the translation direction of research in the Dagestani linguistics. The materials of the study are poems by the Lezgin poet Ibraghim Huseynov, their translations into Russian by a professional translator L. Mil and variants of back translation into the original language performed by students and teachers of the Department of the Lezgin Language and Literature of the Faculty of Dagestani Philology of the Dagestan State Pedagogical University, as well as a wider range of people interested in the Lezgin poetry. The work uses a set of methods: methods of comparative analysis, linguistic interviewing, translation experiment.
The Educational Status of the Russian Language in the New Demographic and Linguistic Situation in Kazakhstan
Authors: Imambek Nurly K.
Published: April 2023

The article discusses the status of the Russian language in modern Kazakhstan and related issues of teaching methods. A review of previously published works devoted to this problem is made. The issues of changing the status of the language are considered in the context of changing the demographic situation in the country. It is noted that it was the change in the population by nationality that determined the transition from Russian-Kazakh to KazakhRussian bilingualism. The review of the ethnic composition of the population of Kazakhstan by region, made in this work, indicates its unevenness. The work also carried out a sociological survey of the population in the regions about the presence of the Russian-speaking environment. The results of the survey showed that the southern and western regions are characterized predominantly by Kazakh monolingualism, while the Russian-speaking environment exists in the northern and northeastern regions. The work as a whole identifies a significant change in the language situation in Kazakhstan in recent years. In this regard, it was concluded that it is necessary to develop and introduce a new methodological concept of language teaching in the new realities of life into the educational process of secondary and higher education in Kazakhstan.
“Subjetividades-nada”, linguagem e aprendizagem: precisamos de atrapalhar as significâncias

Published: April 2023

Neste estudo exploramos os impactos danosos de compreensões das línguas como categorias puras, sobretudo para grupos marginalizados (Bauman; Briggs 2003; Makoni; Pennycook, 2007; MOITA LOPES, 2013). Em diálogo com narrativas produzidas por Filhos, uma aluna de um curso pré-universitário voltado para jovens e adultos de classes populares, refletimos sobre os efeitos perfomativos de visões modernistas das línguas, especialmente da língua inglesa. Nos dados gerados em uma entrevista, Filhos reconstrói sua trajetória de socialização acadêmica (WORTHAM, 2015). Nosso interesse analítico focaliza tal reconstrução a qual abordamos segundo as ordens de indexicalidade (Blommaert, 2005; 2009; 2010) em ação. Os resultados apontam que ideologias linguísticas modernistas reavitalizadas por Filhos durante o evento microssituado de que participou contribuem para constituí-la como uma subjetividade nula de saberes legítimos e incapaz de agir no mundo em língua inglesa. Concluímos indicando os ganhos possíveis de “uma pedagogia das misturas” para grupos historicamente excluídos e estigmatizados.

Tinjauan Sosiologis Terhadap Pelaku Kekerasan Seksual Ditinjau dari Perspektif Hak Asasi Manusia
Authors: Rafli Dwi Yusuf , Susanti Heni
Published: April 2023

Abstrak: Kekerasan seksual merupakan salah satu isu yang marak tejadi dikehidupan masyarakat. Kebudayaan patriartki yang biasa dianut oleh masyarakat Indonesia mengakibatkan kekerasan seksual sering kali menyasarkan wanita dan anak-anak sebagai korban dari kejahatannya. Terbaru dalam kasus pemerkosaan yang melibatkan seorang guru terhadap 13 santriwatinya menuai berbagai polemic di masyarakat. Keputusan hukuman mati sebagai resolusi bijak yang diambil oleh pengadilan menjadi pro dan kontra. Sebagian diantaranya merasa putusan tersebut sangatlah pantas atas apa yang sudah diperbuat dan dilakukannya. Namun dalam sisi lain, banyak orang yang menganggap pemberian putusan mati sebagai bentuk kemunduran akan penegakkan hukum dan mencoreng hak hidup sebagai hak dasar dari eksistensi Hak Asasi Manusia. Keberadaan putusan mati dan pandangan HAM didalamnya menjadi permasalahan Panjang di Indoensia, hal tersebut karena Indonesia sebagai negara yang mengakui keberadaan nilai-nilai HAM, ironisnya juga menetapkan putusan mati sebagai salah satu bentuk pidana pokok yang merupaka bentuk dari kejahatan HAM berat itu sendiri

MITO DE EXU E A REPRESENTAÇÃO DA ENCRUZILHADA
Authors: Petronílio Paulo
Published: April 2023

O objetivo central deste artigo é discutir o Mito de Exu e a representação da encruzilhada, a partir de uma conversa que perpassa a cultura afro-brasileira. Por cultura afro-brasileira entendo aqui a produção intelectual produzida pelos afrodescendentes, seja inserido na cultura, seja na mitologia africana, que foi, de certo modo apagada pela cultura ocidental que se legitima como erudita e que, ao fazer isso, desqualifica e bestializa a produção do povo preto. Na cultura yorubá, Exu é considerado um dos Orixás mais turbulentos e complexos. Tal complexidade se dá, certamente, pela demonização que sempre existiu em torno desse deus tão híbrido, multifacetado e polifônico. Portanto, trazer esse Mito aqui é uma reparação e uma forma de dar seu lugar correto no pensamento e na cultura. Para esse movimento, teremos reflexões que tentam dar conta do Mito de Exu como representação da boca coletiva e individual e como representação do trágico não no sentido dialético, mas no sentido afirmador da vida, bem como a encruzilhada transforma-se no lugar de fala dos povos subalternos e marginalizados pela cultura.
“SE VIRASSE HOMEM, QUE MAL TERIA?”
Authors: Perdigão Hêmille
Published: April 2023

Este trabalho apresenta uma leitura do romance Ponciá Vicêncio, de Conceição Evaristo, com ênfase no silêncio masculino. A hipótese defendida é que o silêncio do homem de Ponciá, associado à aparição de um arco-íris no céu, reproduz o quadro de sensações em que as memórias da protagonista estavam conservadas. Em suas memórias, Ponciá reencontra o medo, que tinha na infância, de se tornar homem, e, por fim, substitui o medo por um desejo. A explicação é que, para Ponciá, ser homem significa ter o direito de permanecer em silêncio com suas reminiscências. Na ausência de uma testemunha para ouvir seus dolorosos relatos, a melhor opção se torna o silêncio. Entretanto, o silêncio, desejado anteriormente no enredo, é rompido pela própria existência do romance, o qual transforma seus leitores nas testemunhas que faltaram a Ponciá e que a levaram a desejar tanto o silêncio masculino.

Published: April 2023

The world is moving on the clothing mobile application shopping
applications, especially during the pandemic COVID 19 days there seems
to be an excessive demand of online shopping. Online shopping
applications where provides an approach of buying a product of your
choice with the least effort also involves some of the risk factors,
especially in the psychological environment of the developing county
like Pakistan, where people have the minor trust factor and prefer to
touch, use and see the personalized appearance before buying the item.
This behavior seems to be more regressive when it comes to shopping in
terms of clothing. People prefer to wear the items, match the colors,
and check if it suits their personality. Online shopping seems to lack
this customer’s approach, especially in developing countries like
Pakistan. There has always been fear and, at the same time, a trust
factor. A virtual trial room is an alternative approach where a user can
virtually try the clothes on the body after providing the complete image
to the system and then try different color combinations, different
fabrics, and matching the contrast. Using an Image processing machine
learning approach, a methodology is proposed to judge this behavior of
the customer after trying the clothes on personal appearance virtually
and evaluate the results after comparing them with buying behavior of
the user in a simple online application and the online mobile
application containing the virtual trial room model. Furthermore,
studies have Virtual trial room model a productive model in the online
shopping experience. Following the described methodology in mobile

Published: April 2023

Soil erosion is a serious form of land degradation and poses a
considerable threat to food supply, human health, and terrestrial
ecosystems globally. The Qinba Mountains are an important geo-ecological
transitional zone in China, and quantifying soil erosion in response to
climate and land use/land cover (LULC) change can help inform plans for
the area’s ecological protection. The spatiotemporal variation of soil
erosion intensity in the Qinba Mountains during 2001–2020 was estimated
using revised universal soil loss equation (RUSLE). Based on CMIP6 data,
combined with Statistical Down Scaling Model (SDSM) and the CA-Markov
model, future soil erosion intensity was predicted. The changing trend
of soil erosion intensity was compared under four different shared
socio-economic pathways (SSPs). The potential contributions of long-term
changes in climate and LULC to soil erosion were assessed using
statistical methods. The results show that future rainfall and rainfall
erosivity will increase by 8%–12% and 3%–14%, respectively.
Depending on the different socio-economic pathways, the soil erosion
rate will increase by between 12 and 32%, with SSP2-4.5 predicted to
cause greatest soil erosion. The analysis of influencing factors showed
that rainfall frequency, intensity, and duration could increase the risk
of soil erosion, while high temperatures could slow down the erosion
rate. Barren land is the most vulnerable to erosion and should continue
to be prioritized. Our spatial distribution map of soil erosion risk
will help inform sustainable land practices and provide support for
adaptation to future ecological environmental hazards caused by climate
change.

Published: April 2023

Soil erosion control is critical to global food production and ecosystem
health. The Mediterranean region is particularly concerned because it is
prone to erosion and is expected to be strongly affected by climatic and
anthropogenic changes. In this paper we explore how land use and
management (LUM) can mitigate climate change impacts and increase
agricultural attractiveness in pasture-dominated Mediterranean mountain
environments. For that, soil erosion for different combinations of
current and plausible future climate and LUM conditions were simulated
on a small watershed located in eastern Sicily (Italy) using the
LandSoil model. LUM scenarios were established as a modulation of
environmental protection and agricultural production/diversification.
The main management distinctions tested in this paper included intensive
vs. extensive practices for pasture, and conventional vs. conservative
practices for cereals and orchards. Simulations showed that the impact
of climate change was very low and not significant in the studied
watershed. Our results also emphasised that agricultural diversification
coupled with adaptations in practices and management can improve the
attractiveness of agriculture in pasture-dominated environments while
maintaining soil protection at an acceptable level.
PHYTOMANAGEMENT OF ZN AND CD CONTAMINATED SOIL: HELIANTHUS ANNUUS BIOMASS PRODUCTION AND METAL REMEDIATION ABILITIES WITH PLANT GROWTH PROMOTING MICROBIOTA ASSISTANCE
Authors: Marques Ana P.G.C. , Paulo Ana , Caetano Nídia S. , Castro Paula M.L.
Published: April 2023

Mining and industrial activity are contributing to the increase of heavy
metal (HM) pollution in the environment, especially in soil. These
metals leach into water, spread to plants and enter the food chain.
Phytoremediation coupled to selected rhizosphere microbiota is an
environmentally friendly technology designed to promote HM
bioremediation in soils. In this study, sunflower ( Helianthus
annuus L.) was used together with Rhizophagus irregularis, an
arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), and Cupriavidus sp. strain
1C2, a plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), as a
phytoremediation strategy to remove Zn and Cd from an industrial soil
(599 mg Zn kg and 1.2 mg Cd kg
) and produce plant biomass - an agricultural soil
was also used to obtain a H. annuus growth and metal accumulation
control. The H. annuus biomass in the contaminated industrial
soil was 17% lower, at harvest than that in an agricultural soil.
Removals of ca. 0.04 and 0.91% of Zn and Cd respectively were obtained
with the biomass produced in the industrial soil in a single crop.
Bioaccumulation, remediation and translocation factors corroborated the
higher Zn and Cd accumulation in the roots, compared to other plants
parts. The survival of applied microbiota was indicated by a high root
colonization rate of AMF and identification of strain 1C2 in the
rhizosphere at the end of the phytoremediation assay. Changes in the
bacterial community occurred in the industrial soil and were possibly
associated to the phytoremediation effect on the rhizosphere: metals
removal by the plant together with the synergic relationships
established between AMF, PGPR and the autochthonous microbial community
might have favoured specific soil bacterial genera, namely
Nitrospira, Acidobacterium and Candidatus
Koribacter. In this study, an optimized phytomanagement strategy
applied to a real contaminated soil was successfully tested, and plant
biomass with potential for upstream energetic valorisation purposes was
produced.
Comparison of a Dynamic Model of Electric Arc Furnace with Actual Operation Data for Voltage Flicker Analysis in Electrical Power Network
Authors: Koroglu Tahsin
Published: April 2023

Electric arc furnaces (EAFs) used in the iron and steel manufacturing
industry for melting and reﬁning of scrap metals are one of the most
disturbing loads that exhibit unbalanced and highly non-linear
characteristics. Serious voltage fluctuations occur in the power system
as a result of the rapid change of the current drawn from the grid by
the EAF. Voltage fluctuations lead to a power quality problem known as
flicker, which is defined as observable changes in light sources that
affect the production environment, cause eye fatigue in personnel, and
lower work concentration levels. In order to investigate the voltage
flicker problem, an accurate mathematical model describing the behavior
of the EAF load is needed. In this study, a dynamic EAF model that can
be adjusted to different operating conditions has been developed in the
time domain. The electric arc voltage has been modeled as an externally
controllable voltage source. The instantaneous arc voltage has been
expressed as a function of the arc length independent of the current.
The arc resistance, variable with time and non-linear, has also been
calculated with differential equations using the instantaneous arc
voltage value. To measure the short-term flicker severity index caused
by the EAF in the power system, a flicker meter in compliance with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 61000-4-15 standard has
been designed. The current-voltage characteristic of the EAF, its effect
on the power system, and the flicker severity occurring at the point of
common coupling (PCC) have been analyzed with simulation studies using
PSCAD/EMTDC software. Besides, the simulation results of the dynamic
model of the EAF have been compared with the results obtained from the
model based on measured ﬁeld data.
Modeling water hyacinth growth dynamics
Authors: Milicevic Dragan
Published: April 2023

This study aimed to evaluate the biomass growth of water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes [Mart.] Solms) under partially controlled conditions during a 70-day test using a mixture of municipal wastewater and water from a shaft as a source of nutrients. The water hyacinth in a moderately continental climatic condition at a latitude of 43oN can achieve productivity of an average of 18.25 kg/m2 in partially controlled conditions, whereas under natural conditions and under conditions of controlled harvesting, larger amounts of biomass can be obtained. Considering the large amounts of biomass of over 1.5 t/ha per day, i.e. over 180 t/ha per year, produced, water hyacinth can be successfully used in wastewater treatment plants with very favorable economic effects if the biomass generated is used for energy production, as a nutrient or food, and for many other needs. The following models were used to model the dynamics of water hyacinth biomass growth: the exponential model (average MSE 0.3117, average R2 to 0.9793), second-order polynomial model (average MSE 0.0952, average R2 0.9937) and logistic model (average MSE 0.0508, average R2 0.9966). All models have high accuracy; however, the exponential model and the second-order polynomial model give a continuous increase in biomass over time, practically to infinity, without taking into account that under conditions of increased plant density and reduced availability of resources, biomass growth slows down, and therefore, they are not suitable for application in real conditions. The logistic model (average environmental capacity 18.25 kg/m2, average growth rate 0.0571 g/g?day after about 150 days) adequately describes the growth of water hyacinth biomass with high accuracy, which enables the monitoring and control of the process operation and the achievement of the required quality of the treated wastewater.
Application of sodium selenite in the growing technology of white lupin (Lupinus albus L.)
Authors: Seregina Inga , Belopukhov Sergey , Vigilyansky Yuri , Verkhoturov Vasilij
Published: April 2023

Lupinus is a very diverse genus with many species. The aim of this study was
to determine the influence of different methods of application of sodium
selenite on the nutritional value of white lupine variety Degas. The highest
effect on the content of crude protein was obtained by spraying vegetating
plants before the beginning of the flowering phase. In this variant, a class
1 grain was obtained while meeting other requirements of the feed lupin
quality standard. This study reveals that the use of selenium contributed to
increasing the collection of crude protein at the harvest of white lupin. It
is assumed that selenium stimulated the processes of nitrogen entering
plants and its redistribution from vegetative to generative organs, as well
as activated the synthesis of proteins and their accumulation in the grain
of white lupin. It was found that the content of alkaloids in the resulting
crop of white lupin did not exceed acceptable levels, which allows it to be
used for feed purposes and the preparation of various types of feed. The use
of selenium contributed to the increase in the collection of crude protein
content at the harvest of above-ground plant mass as it stimulates nitrogen
processes in plants and its redistribution from vegetative organs to
generative organs, as well as the synthesis of protein compounds in the
lupin grain.

Published: April 2023

OBJECTIVE

Most people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) or advanced fibrosis (AF) remain undiagnosed, resulting in missed opportunities for early intervention. This multicenter, prospective study assessed the yield of using routinely available data to identify these patients.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

A total of 713 outpatients with T2DM, screened in four diabetology clinics for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease according to American Diabetes Association criteria, were referred to hepatologists for further work-up (Fibrosis-4 and vibration-controlled transient elastography [VCTE]). A liver biopsy was proposed when ALT levels were persistently >20 IU/L in female patients or >30 IU/L in male patients, in the absence of other liver disease.

RESULTS

Liver biopsies were performed in 360 patients and considered adequate for reading after central review for 330 specimens (median patient age, 59 years; male patients, 63%; median BMI and HbA1c values, 32 and 7.5%, respectively). Prevalence of NASH, AF, and cirrhosis were 58%, 38%, and 10%, respectively. Liver lesions were independently associated with the components of metabolic syndrome but not with the micro- and macrovascular complications of T2DM. Models based on routinely available data with or without VCTE had good accuracy to predict AF (respectively: area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUROC], 0.84 and 0.77; and correctly classified 59% and 45%) and NASH (respectively: AUROC, 0.82 and 0.81; 44% and 42%).

CONCLUSIONS

Despite the use of a low ALT threshold, prevalence of NASH (58%) or AF (38%) was high. Routinely available data had a high yield in identifying patients with T2DM with AF and/or NASH requiring further liver assessment.

Published: April 2023

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the performance of a real-time continuous glucose monitor (CGM) in individuals with diabetes on peritoneal dialysis (PD).

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

Thirty participants with type 2 diabetes on continuous ambulatory PD wore a Guardian Sensor 3 on the upper arm paired with Guardian Connect for 14 days. We compared CGM readings against Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) venous glucose during an 8-h in-clinic session with glucose challenge.

RESULTS

The mean absolute relative difference (MARD) was 10.4% (95% CI 9.6, 11.7) from 941 CGM-YSI matched pairs; 81.3% of readings were within %15/15 of YSI values in the full glycemic range. Consensus error grid analysis showed 99.9% of sensor values in zones A and B. There were no correlations between pH, uremia, hydration status, and MARD.

CONCLUSIONS

We showed satisfactory performance of a real-time CGM sensor in PD patients with diabetes, supporting future use to facilitate treatment decisions.
Evaluating Ethnic Variations in the Risk of Infections in People With Prediabetes and Type 2 Diabetes: A Matched Cohort Study
Authors: Carey Iain M. , Critchley Julia A. , Chaudhry Umar A.R. , DeWilde Stephen , Limb Elizabeth S. , Cook Derek G. , Whincup Peter H. , Harris Tess
Published: April 2023

OBJECTIVE

People living with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are at higher infection risk, but it is unknown how this risk varies by ethnicity or whether the risk is similarly observed in people with nondiabetic hyperglycemia (“prediabetes”).

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

We included 527,151 patients in England with T2D and 273,216 with prediabetes, aged 18–90, and alive on 1 January 2015 on the Clinical Practice Research Datalink. Each was matched to two patients without diabetes or prediabetes on age, sex, and ethnic group. Infections during 2015–2019 were collated from primary care and linked hospitalization records. Infection incidence rate ratios (IRRs) for those with prediabetes or T2D were estimated, unadjusted and adjusted for confounders.

RESULTS

People with T2D had increased risk for infections presenting in primary care (IRR 1.51, 95% CI 1.51–1.52) and hospitalizations (IRR 1.91, 1.90–1.93). This was broadly consistent overall within each ethnic group, although younger White T2D patients (age <50) experienced a greater relative risk. Adjustment for socioeconomic deprivation, smoking, and comorbidity attenuated associations, but IRRs remained similar by ethnicity. For prediabetes, a significant but smaller risk was observed (primary care IRR 1.35, 95% CI 1.34–1.36; hospitalization IRR 1.33, 1.31–1.35). These were similar within each ethnicity for primary care infections, but less consistent for infection-related hospitalizations.

CONCLUSIONS

The elevated infection risk for people with T2D appears similar for different ethnic groups and is also seen in people with prediabetes. Infections are a substantial cause of ill-health and health service use for people with prediabetes and T2D. This has public health implications with rising prediabetes and diabetes prevalence.
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus, Postpartum Lipidomic Signatures, and Subsequent Risk of Type 2 Diabetes: A Lipidome-Wide Association Study
Authors: Wang Guoying , Buckley Jessie P. , Bartell Tami R , Hong Xiumei , PEARSON COLLEEN , Wang Xiaobin
Published: April 2023

OBJECTIVE To identify a postpartum lipidomic signature associated with gestational diabetes (GDM) and investigate the role of the identified lipids in the progression to type 2 diabetes (T2D).

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This was a prospective cohort study of 1409 women who were enrolled at 24-72 hours after delivery of a singleton baby and followed prospectively at the Boston Medical Center, Boston, MA. Lipidome was profiled by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry platform. Diagnoses of GDM and incident T2D were extracted from medical records and verified using plasma glucose levels. 

RESULTS Mean (SD) age of study women at baseline was 28.5±6.6 years. 219 (16.4%) women developed incident diabetes over a median (interquartile range) follow-up of 11.8 (8.2-14.8) years. We identified 33 postpartum lipid species associated with GDM, including 16 inverse associations (primarily cholesterol esters and phosphatidylcholine plasmalogens), and 17 positive associations (primarily diacyglycerols and triacyglycerols). Of these, 4 were associated with risk of incident T2D and mediated about 12% of the progression from GDM to T2D. The identified lipid species modestly improved the predictive performance for incident T2D above classical risk factors when the entire follow-up period was considered. 

CONCLUSIONS GDM was associated with a wide range of lipid metabolic alterations at early postpartum, among which some lipid species were also associated with incident T2D and mediated the progression from GDM to T2D. The improvements attained by including lipid species in the prediction of T2D provides new insights regarding the early detection and prevention of progression to T2D.
Sea Turtle Stranding Patterns in New York (2017-2020)
Authors: Quadery Sadiqah
Published: April 2023

In this observational study, we examined spatiotemporal patterns of the sea turtle taxa, and how they are affected by human interactions. We isolated the data to only 4 species of concern in the New York area from the years 2017 to 2020. The four species of concern are Leatherback (D. Coriacea), Loggerhead (C. Caretta), Kemp’s ridley (L. Kempii), and Atlantic green sea turtles (C. Mydas). We utilized data provided by the Atlantic Marine Conservation Society (AMSEAS) to plot stranding locations of Google Earth, and graph the trends. It was determined that there is a significant spike in sea turtle strandings during the summer months (July & August) and the winter months (November & December). We used resources from NOAA to determine that the migratory patterns of the sea turtles are causing the strandings as global warming progressively makes the water warmer in the winter months as the year’s progress. Human interaction only comprises (24.6%) of the stranding cause and over half of the human interaction caused strandings are due to vessel strikes. Furthermore, we will use this data to research stranding patterns on other marine mammals, partner with organizations to raise awareness and prevent strandings as the climate changes, and conserve these vulnerable (Leatherback), endangered (Loggerhead & Green), and critically endangered (Kemp’s Ridley) sea turtles.
Suitability Zoning and Layout Optimization of Forages in Uxin Banner Surrounded by the Mu Us Sandy Land in China
Authors: Li Shifeng
Published: April 2023

The Mu Us Sandy land is one of the four largest sandy lands in China and the main sources of sand dust in the Beijing-Tianjin area. Uxin Banner, located at the southernmost end of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, is surrounded by this sandy land. Nearly one third of the Mu Us sandy land is located in Uxin Banner. Irrational expansion of agricultural land, unordered layout and overgrazing have resulted in the degradation of grassland, which leads to serious ecological problems and makes this area one of the five typical ecological fragile zones in China. Previous studies mostly focused on regional resource carrying capacity and man-land relationship, but few studies were conducted on how to select excellent varieties which are suitable for local resource and environmental background conditions to promote the healthy development of herbage industry. The research methods and conclusions of this paper can make up for this deficiency. Based on GIS and SPSSAU data scientific analysis platform, this paper uses multi-source remote sensing, statistics, surveys and other data to study the suitability zoning of silage planting, comprehensive evaluation of forage varieties, pastoral area industrial planning, etc. The research conclusions and suggestions can promote a high-quality development of agriculture and animal husbandry in Uxin Banner, help farmers and herdsmen to increase income, and provide scientific support for rural revitalization in the new period.
Central Odontogenic Fibroma of Mandible: A Rare Case Report with Review of Literature
Authors: S Sudhamani
Published: April 2023

Central Odontogenic fibroma is an extremely rare neoplasm that develops from mature fibrous connective tissue with varying amounts of odontogenic epithelium. Its incidence is 0.1% of all odontogenic tumors. It occurs with equal frequency in the maxilla and mandible with female predominance. Two clinical variants are known: intraosseous or central and extraosseous or peripheral odontogenic fibroma. It is radiolucent and may present as a well-defined unilocular or multilocular slow-growing mass. Here we reported a case of central odontogenic fibroma in 44-year-old male in the posterior region of left mandible. We present this case because of its rarity.
Programa de Educação Integral (PROEI) na Bahia
Authors: Sampaio Schirley Silva , Rodrigues José Roberto Gomes
Published: April 2023

Este artigo é o resultado de pesquisa sobre o Programa de Educação Integral em uma instituição escolar do ensino médio, na cidade de Juazeiro, cujo propósito foi compreender como acontece a educação em tempo integral para verificar assertivas, possibilidades e desafios. Para tanto, foram consultados Cavaliere (2010); Manacorda (2017); Teixeira (1959); Yus (2002), entre outros. Trata-se de um estudo de caso em uma abordagem qualitativa, que fez uso da análise documental; observação sistemática e assistemática; entrevistas semiestruturadas com professores e questionário com alunos do 3º ano do ensino médio integral, durante trinta dias, no período de fevereiro a março de 2020. Os resultados revelam as contradições entre concepções de educação integral e o Programa; uma estrutura física que não contribui para aulas com vivências práticas; e uma política educacional com metas que visam melhores resultados em exames.
BNCC

Published: April 2023

O processo de construção da BNCC foi marcado por um cenário de instabilidade política e de embates entre inúmeros atores envolvidos em sua elaboração. Na ocasião, dois grupos se formaram, um se posicionando a favor e outro contrário à criação da Base. Nesse sentido, o objetivo deste estudo é compreender os principais argumentos que sustentam os dois posicionamentos a partir dos conceitos de sistema de crenças e de coalizões de defesa de Paul Sabatier. Para tanto, analisamos dois documentos publicados por duas entidades que representam, cada qual, uma coalização. Embora partam de conceitos comuns, como direito à educação, desigualdade de aprendizagem, homogeneização do ensino e qualidade educacional, as coalizões assumem posicionamentos diferentes, o que traz mais questionamentos do que esclarecimentos acerca da compreensão desses conceitos.

Published: April 2023

El último diseño curricular para la formación inicial de las(os) docentes de Educación primaria de la provincia de Buenos Aires (Argentina) es implementado a partir de 2008. Este artículo busca presentar cómo el documento prescripto por las autoridades educativas ha sido resignificado y contextualizado por las(os) docentes de Institutos Superiores de Formación docente. Para ello se pretende recuperar los saberes de la experiencia que las(os) docentes del campo de la práctica comparten en los microterritorios aúlicos con las(os) estudiantes del profesorado. La investigación asume un abordaje epistémico-metodológico interpretativo, cualitativo y microsocial. Las diversas etapas e instrumentos a utilizar serán entretejidas desde el enfoque biográfico-narrativo.
vida grafada nas asas invisíveis da docência
Authors: Ferreira Sabrina Mendonça , Gouvêa Tânia da Costa
Published: April 2023

O artigo coloca-se epistemologicamente em defesa do campo das pesquisas com os cotidianos e tem por objetivo desinvisibilizar possibilidades formativas em produções curriculares de múltiplas grafias que se entrelaçam em vidas por meio de narrativas em conversas entre docentes na vivência da escola básica pública. As pesquisas apontam para a potência dos encontros (GARCIA, 2015) como lugar de produção e sinalizam pistas na ampliação de sentidos que circulam diferentemente em duas instituições educacionais do estado do Rio de Janeiro, mostrando a complexidade envolvida em compreensões da profissão docente. O uso de narrativas de experiências como metodologia mobilizou memórias e afetos e ampliou possibilidades de significação no enfrentamento de desigualdades, no fortalecimento político e autoral docente e no reconhecimento da importância da produção curricular nos cotidianos docentes.
Narrativas, conversas e as múltiplas grafias de vida
Authors: Garcia Alexandra , Moreira Maria Alfredo , Amorim Antonio Carlos Rodrigues de
Published: April 2023

As pesquisas com narrativas e conversas, sobretudo de natureza (auto)biográfica, vêm trazendo contribuições para conhecermos melhor o modo como o/as professores/as pensam sua atuação docente e como se produzem currículos nos cotidianos das escolas que se identificam com alternativas emancipatórias e lutas contra as desigualdades. A sua natureza ideográfica e historicamente situada revela a indissociabilidade entre o campo do político, do epistemológico e do ético-estético, convidando-nos a repensar ideias hegemônicas sobre o que é conhecimento, como ele é produzido e legitimado, bem como o seu impacto na transformação social. Este artigo discute o lugar da produção narrativa na escrita de grafias de vida das escolas e da formação docente, enquadrando e discutindo os catorze textos que compõem o dossiê temático do número. Espera-se, assim, alargar o debate em torno das pesquisas com narrativas, discutindo experiências e práticas que abrem possibilidades outras na compreensão crítica e sensível do que pode (vir a) ser pensar e praticar currículos e formação na contemporaneidade.

Indonesia merupakan salah satu negara kepulauan terbesar di dunia dengan 40% mayoritas penduduknya bermata pencaharian sebagai petani sehingga sering juga disebut sebagai negara agraris. Di Indonesia pertanian memberikan kontribusi sangat penting baik bagi perekonomian maupun pemenuhan kebutuhan dasar masyarakat, apalagi dengan terus bertambahnya jumlah penduduk kebutuhan panganpun juga akan  mengalami meningkat, pengimbangan terhadap penikatan jumlah penduduk yang akan membuat jumlah permintaan akan lahan pertanian semakin banyak. Namun dalam proses pengimbangan tidaklah mudah, karana semakin menyempitnya lahan pertanian yang beralih fungsi sebagai indusrti dan perumahan berdampak pada jumlah hasil panen yang semakin sedikit karena kurangnya lahan untuk bercocok tanam. pemantauan secara berkala terhadap luas lahan pertanian sangat penting dilakukan dalam upaya pengimbangan hasil panen. penelitian yang perfokus pada prediksi luas lahan pertanian mengunakan jaringan saraf tiruan untuk melakukan perdiksi serta mengunakan matlab sebagai alat dokumentasi dimana akan digunakan sebagai indikator capaian dan sebagai bahan informasi untuk memperbanyak lahan pertanian sebagai bagian dari upaya pemenuhan pangan pokok  masyarakat.
