Authors: Probowati Rovica , Buyu prakoso Adi , Mei Astuti Andriana , Aboo Bakkar Zainie , Nur Azizah Anisa
Published: December 2024

Background: fatigue is the most disturbing sign and symptom felt by cancer patients. As a result of fatigue, clients become too tired to engage in daily activities so that it can affect the client's quality of life. It is necessary to know the factors that have the most significant relationship with fatigue in cancer clients and appropriate nursing interventions are needed to overcome it. Objective: this study was to determine the factors that have the most significant relationship with fatigue in cancer clients and to determine the effect of five-finger relaxation technique intervention on fatigue. Method: research with pre-test and post-test design with 32 respondents with purposive sampling. Data analysis using paired t-test, wilcoxon and spearman correlation. Results: the study showed that sleep quality had a significant relationship with fatigue (p value = 0.004), and the five-finger relaxation technique had an effect on improving sleep quality and decreasing fatigue in ca mammae clients (p = 0.000). Sleep quality and fatigue have a moderate relationship (r = 0.396) and a positive pattern. Conclusion: this study recommends the need to use the five-finger relaxation technique to overcome sleep quality disorders and fatigue as symptoms and signs that are often found in cancer clients.
McKusick-Kaufman Syndrome in An Iraqi Neonate: A Case Report

Published: December 2024

McKusick-Kaufman (MKS) syndrome is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder, determined by genetic mutation in the MKKS gene on chromosome 20. MKS commonly manifests with three primary components: Polydactyly, Congenital Heart Defects, and Genital and Urogenital Abnormalities. Most reported cases are of Amish descent, with only one Arabic documented case. We present a case of a genetic mutation of MKKS gene in an Iraqi female neonate who presented with repeated non-projectile non-bilious vomiting and abdominal distension. The examination showed a postaxial polydactyly in the hands and feet, an ejection systolic murmur, and an abdominal mass. Perineal examination revealed no vaginal orifice. Diagnosing MKS may necessitate a comprehensive approach due to its rarity and diversity in manifestation. Ruling out Bardet-Biedl syndrome, which shares MKS features, was difficult due to genetic test unavailability; for that patient was kept on follow-up. A high suspicion index, early diagnosis, and customized treatment strategies are essential to address each case's distinct symptoms and requirements, frequently using a multidisciplinary medical team to prevent complications.
Moderate Ischemic Mitral Insufficiency at the Time of Coronary Artery Bypass Graft; Repair or Spare?
Authors: Abdelwahhab Ahmed , Rushdi Mohamad , Ayyad Mohamed , Elminshawy Ahmed
Published: December 2024

Background: Approximately 13-59% of myocardial infarction patients develop ischemic mitral regurgitation, impacting left ventricular function and increasing mortality risk. Optimal management of moderate ischemic mitral regurgitation remains controversial, raising the question of whether adding mitral valve surgery to coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) has an overall advantage over revascularization or not.
Objective: To investigate the early and mid-term comparison between the two techniques.
Subjects and Methods: This randomized clinical trial was conducted at Assuit University Heart Hospital, on 50 patients randomized into two groups: Group A: 25 patients underwent CABG and Group B: 25 patients had CABG and mitral valve repair. Inclusion criteria was multi-vessel coronary artery disease, moderate ischemic mitral regurge (MR). All patients were subjected to full history taking, routine physical, laboratory investigations and transthoracic echocardiography. Intraoperative data was collected. Early outcomes included MR degree, and left ventricular (LV) diameters and function, ICU stay duration, and in-hospital mortality. Mid-term outcomes included MR degree, LV diameter and function.
Results: Groups had similar age and gender distribution. Repair procedures showed longer ischemic and operative times than CABG alone (P≤0.0001 and P=0.0012). Early post-operative, repair reduced MR significantly (P≤0.0001). At six months follow-up, CABG group had more rate of improvement than repair group (P≤0.0001).
Conclusions: In moderate ischemic mitral regurgitation with multi-vessel ischemic heart disease, adding mitral valve repair to CABG may reduce mitral regurgitation severity early and at six months compared to CABG alone. However, CABG alone offers shorter ischemic times and operative durations.

Published: December 2024

Background: The collagen triple helix repeat containing 1 (CTHRC1) protein has been connected to decreased levels of vitamin D and calcium, as well as obesity. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between CTHRC1 and osteoporosis in post-menopausal women and compare with healthy subjects.
Subjects and Methods: A cross-sectional study consisted of 86 women were enrolled in this study and divided into three groups based on the results of dual-energy densitometry (DXA): 30 women with osteoporosis, 30 women with osteopenia, and 26 healthy women. Data on demographic and clinical features and laboratory values of Calcium (Ca) and Vitamin D3 (V.D3) were recorded.
Results: Women with osteoporosis had significantly increased levels of CTHRC1 (P = 0.0001) compare to HS groups. The CTHRC1 showed negative correlation with Ca and V.D3 value at (r= -0.453, P=0.001 and r= -0.415, P= 0.022) respectively in osteopenia patients. CTHRC1 alone show excellent discrimination power (AUC= 0.9) in identifying women with osteoporosis.
Conclusions: Serum CTHRC1 is a valid biomarker that can distinguish women with osteoporosis from HS group with high accuracy. Low calcium and vitamin D levels in this age group may be linked to an increase in the CTHRC1 levels and this could make it a Therapeutic target in future studies.
Free Testosterone, Dihydrotestosterone, and Adiponectin in the Evaluation of Vitamin D Supplementation for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: A Metformin Comparative Study
Authors: Aziz Zainab Nur-Eldeen , Saleh Basil O. , Thaker Ansam Zeki
Published: December 2024

Background: Among women of the reproductive age, the most prevalent endocrine disease with (15-44) percentile is the polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Last decades, many studies indicated that vitamin D deficiency in women with PCOS may aggravate hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance.
Objectives This study was designed to investigate the role of some biochemical markers and hormonal status in evaluation the efficacy of vitamin D supplementation in treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome.
Subjects and Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out at Department of Biochemistry, College of Medicine, University of Baghdad. It included: group I: Twenty-five women with PCOS who were treated with metformin and followed for 8 weeks, and group II:  Twenty-five women with PCOS who were treated with vitamin D3 and followed for 8 weeks. Serum investigations included measurements of HOMA-IR, 25 hydroxyvitamin D3, adiponectin, androgen indices by ELISA technique
Results: The mean (±SD) values of HOMA-IR, free testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, and adiponectin levels were significantly improved after treatment in both groups of metformin and vitamin D supplement compared with before their treatment (p < 0.05). In addition, there was no significant differences after treatment between women treated with metformin and those treated with vitamin D supplement for all the measured parameters (p > 0.05). PCOS women treated with vitamin D showed significant negative correlation between SHBG and BMI (r= -0.976, p <0.001)
Conclusions: Measurements of serum free testosterone, dihydrotestosterone and adiponectin are good indicators for efficacy of vitamin D supplement in improvement of insulin resistance and androgen disturbances of PCOS.
Pregnant Mothers’ Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Towards Prevention of Iron Deficiency Anemia in Georgia
Authors: Verulava Tengiz , Gogua Inga
Published: December 2024

Background: Anemia in pregnancy is a serious global health challenge, particularly affecting developing countries.
Objectives: This study aimed to explore pregnant women's attitudes and perceptions regarding preventing iron deficiency anemia (IDA).
Subjects and Methods: A qualitative research method was used to survey pregnant women with IDA and physicians through in-depth interviews.  The target sample consisted of 9 gynecologists and 26 pregnant women, selected through purposive sampling from three maternity hospitals in Tbilisi (Georgia).
Results: The majority of pregnant women (n=22; 84.6%) had some knowledge about IDA and correctly identified its symptoms. However, despite high awareness, most lacked adequate knowledge about the causes and risk factors of IDA. While pregnant women were aware of healthy eating practices, they did not follow a proper diet. Obstacles to healthy eating included limited financial access to food as well as cultural and religious barriers. Although respondents had some knowledge about iron-rich foods, they were generally unaware of the need to take iron supplements for prevention. The majority of pregnant women (n=21; 80.8%) received little information about anemia from their family physicians, indicating a limited role of family doctors in IDA prevention during pregnancy.
Conclusions: Although pregnant women possess knowledge and positive attitudes towards IDA prevention, their practices remain insufficient. The findings suggest a weak connection between knowledge of IDA prevention and healthy behavior, contributing significantly to anemia prevalence. To address this issue, it is essential to promote proper nutritional counseling for pregnant women during antenatal care, with a focus on strengthening family doctors' involvement. Additionally, awareness should be increased among women of reproductive age and adolescent girls.

Programmers can benefit from static source code analysis techniques in various ways: they can understand their code better, test it more effectively, debug it more efficiently, and so on. However, they often face the challenge of discovering how to reproduce faulty executions that cause runtime errors. The term symbolic execution refers to a static source code analysis method that can help with this challenge. In this paper, we are showing a symbolic execution-based analysis method to find the source of a runtime error. The method uses a control-flow graph to select the execution paths reaching the targeted runtime error. The algorithm is implemented as part of the RefactorErl static program analysis and transformation framework.
Encounters: Word and Image, Speech and Body
Authors:   Technical University of Liberec, Jedlickova Alice
Published: December 2024

The paper analyses two pieces of multimodal storytelling that represent the genre recently labelled as artistic document (Lupínková 2022, Jirků 2022). The narratives feature sensitive topics such as eating disorders, coming of age, and accepting oneself and the other. These publications also reflect the trend of independent publishing houses to produce slow-read book-artefacts. For this reason, the enquiry draws on the methods of intermedial studies and correlates the observed phenomena with the changing understanding of literariness employing the concept of postautonomous literature, and with the transformation of cultural communication in general. The analysis focuses on the relation of factual and fictional strategies of the texts and on the interplay of the verbal and visual components, as well as the potential impact of the particular material qualities of these books on the process of reception.
Ekphrastic Poetry on the Venus de Milo
Authors:   University of Szeged, Milián Orsolya
Published: December 2024

Within literary studies, the interaction of ekphrastic poetry and painting constitutes a frequently examined topic, but the intermedial relationships between poetry and sculpture have been more rarely explored. Contributing to the scholarship on literary ekphrasis and on the interrelations between poetry and sculpture, the paper focuses on strategies of description and narrativization, paying homage and developing a rivalry, and the account of the viewer’s activity and their aesthetic evaluation. The essay examines these issues via the case study of the ekphrastic lyrical tradition of the Venus de Milo. Firstly, it lays out a sketch of nineteenth-century art historical and lyrical approaches to the Venus de Milo. Secondly and predominantly, it analyses some examples of twentieth-century ekphrasis (such as the Hungarian Gyula Juhász’s “Milói Vénus,” the Romanian Alfred Moşoiu’s “Venus din Milo,” the British Alfred Noyes’s “The Venus of Milo,” and the Hungarian György Rónay’s “A milói Vénusz”), which all respond to the statue of Venus de Milo, and either continue or break the art historical and lyrical traditions developed during the 1800s. Therefore, on the one hand, the study demonstrates how ekphrastic literary traditions, while participating in the canonization of visual works of art, show the traces of the changing approaches and appreciations of their artistic object (in this case study, the Venus de Milo) over a long period of time, and, on the other hand, it sheds light on how the ekphrastic literary tradition itself is shaped.
Occupational Stress among Healthcare Workers Amid the COVID-19 Pandemic: Insights from a Malaysian Hospital
Authors: Zulkifly Syazwan Syah , Daud Mohamad Imran , Ghani Muhashamsani Abdul , Shamsudin Mohd Salahudin
Published: December 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought unprecedented levels of occupational stress among healthcare workers, particularly those on the front lines. Increased workloads, frequently changing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), and the continuous use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) have highlighted the critical need for effective management practices to safeguard the well-being and resilience of healthcare staff. This study examines the influence of managerial interventions on alleviating occupational stress among healthcare workers at a Malaysian public hospital during the pandemic. Using the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model as a conceptual framework, a qualitative approach with snowball sampling was applied to gather semi-structured interview data from healthcare personnel, including doctors, nurses, and support staff. Content analysis revealed core stressors such as intensified workloads, PPE-related discomfort, and SOP-related confusion. Effective strategies, such as counseling services, NGO support, and recognition programs, significantly mitigated stress, although gaps in communication and resource allocation were identified as factors exacerbating stress. This research highlights the critical need for adaptive and proactive management to reduce occupational stress during crises, emphasizing the roles of strategic communication, mental health support, and efficient resource management. The findings provide insights into resilient management frameworks that can enhance preparedness for future healthcare challenges.
Políticas de reparação: Mapeamento das Coleções Etnográficas no Brasil como mediador entre objetos e pessoas
Authors: Braga G. G. , Russi Adriana , Brandão Marco
Published: December 2024

Neste capítulo, apresenta-se o desafio enfrentado no Brasil de localizar e documentar coleções associadas a diversos povos e comunidades em seus aproximadamente 4 mil museus. Discute-se o processo de mapeamento das coleções etnográficas no país, concebido como um dispositivo de mediação que visa localizar, identificar e disponibilizar dados sobre coleções preservadas em museus e outras instituições de memória. Para alcançar esse objetivo, foi estabelecida uma rede de articuladores regionais, composta por pesquisadores, professores e voluntários. Inspirados pela ideia de "mapear para agir", os autores demonstram como o mapeamento atua como uma ação descolonizadora dos acervos, promovendo reflexões sobre a formação dessas coleções, aprimorando as informações sobre o patrimônio etnográfico e subsidiando políticas públicas no campo museal.

Published: December 2024

O capítulo aborda os conflitos socioambientais e as ameaças enfrentadas por territórios tradicionalmente ocupados, destacando o avanço dos parques eólicos na região do Seridó, no Rio Grande do Norte. Através de pesquisa documental, participação em grupos de WhatsApp e visitas a diversas localidades afetadas, os autores demonstram como discursos e ações, fundamentados em ideias de desenvolvimento, sustentabilidade e governança, contribuem para a invisibilidade de territórios ancestrais e locais de memória de várias comunidades. Em resposta a essas ameaças, o capítulo também ressalta a mobilização da sociedade civil, que questiona os alegados benefícios e os impactos dos empreendimentos eólicos na região.
Una recepción heterodoxa de Tomás de Aquino de la teoría del alma aristotélica
Authors: Martínez Jorge
Published: December 2024

En este trabajo me propongo abordar de manera breve y esquemática dos asuntos importantes aludidos por Aristóteles en el Tratado sobre el alma y la interpretación que de ellos efectúa Tomás de Aquino en algunos pasajes de su obra. Estos dos asuntos son: uno, el de la definición misma del alma propuesta por Aristóteles al comienzo del Libro II del De anima y la versión que Santo Tomás ofrece de esa definición. El otro asunto es el carácter del intelecto como parte del alma, y a la vez su carácter de “separado” del alma y del compuesto, o sea, del hombre mismo. Esta última separación queda puesta de manifiesto en el momento de la muerte, cuando lo único inmortal que permanece es el intelecto o mente.
La paz en Colombia: construcción psicosocial de una pedagogía de la convivencia
Authors: Arango Cálad Carlos
Published: December 2024

La experiencia de la realidad es una hechura producto de nuestras acciones en donde podemos participar consciente y deliberadamente en su construcción, así como evaluar y revisar nuestras acciones para influir conscientemente en las consecuencias de nuestros actos. Para caracterizar la vida cotidiana acudimos a la dimensión vivencial e intuitiva más que a la dimensión racional y verbal. Realizamos ejercicios ordenados de descripción de la experiencia a través del dibujo, del intercambio de experiencias y emociones, así como a descripciones verbales y sustentadas y argumentadas lógicamente. La realidad es la resultante de las actitudes, comportamientos y discursos que ponemos en juego en nuestras relaciones con otros, desde este enfoque psicosocial, el presente artículo le apuesta a que es posible educar para la convivencia en contextos comunitarios siempre y cuando contemos con conceptos vivos y coherentes sobre la convivencia y con un modelo pedagógico basado en lo afectivo y acorde con el contexto social abordado.
Duelos migratorios como objetos de representación: las guerras no contadas
Authors: Ortega Garzón Sandra María , Camacho López Sandra
Published: December 2024

El fenómeno migratorio actual conlleva a diversas problemáticas que no solamente competen a las personas que deben migrar, sino que pueden comprometer a todo un país e incluso ir más allá de él, hasta convertirse, como lo hemos visto en las últimas décadas, en un fenómeno mundial. En este artículo, queremos abordar los textos dramatúrgicos Pies morenos sobre piedras de sal de Ana María Vallejo, Mapa de Amaranta Osorio y Silencios de Camilo Vergara para analizar cómo se representan los procesos migratorios dentro de algunas dramaturgias colombianas, ahondando en aquellas imágenes poéticas que producen los espacios íntimos y colectivos en los personajes, y con ellos  los motivos de la migración, los recorridos de los viajes y las transformaciones que van teniendo sus protagonistas, para develar a través de este análisis interpretativo nuevas formas de escritura en el teatro colombiano, que acuden y permiten comprender algunos planteamientos sobre el fenómeno de la migración que, como sociedad, vivimos en la actualidad.
La moderna guerra mexicana y su efecto en el ejercicio de la producción dramática
Authors: Salcedo Larios Hugo
Published: December 2024

En este artículo se hace referencia a la declaración de guerra por parte del gobierno federal en contra de los cárteles de la droga y el crimen organizado. Aunque esta moción se realizó en el sexenio presidencial de Felipe Calderón Hinojosa (2006-2012), no han dejado de sentirse los efectos que también golpean a la población civil y a los sectores más desfavorecidos, en una secuela de horror: extorsiones, desapariciones forzadas, trata de personas, desplazamientos y violaciones de toda índole que conducen al asesinato. Por su parte, una importante traza de la dramaturgia y el teatro mexicano –mediante diversos y atractivos caminos estructurales–, atiende a la voz de urgencia y de visibilidad, haciendo motivo de sus exposiciones esta barbarie irrefrenable. El desgaste imparable de la clase gobernante y las condiciones de sobrevivencia se erigen como una palestra para la exposición de la ignominia, la corrupción y el poder.
Cincuenta años, de Marcelo Leonart: guerra y memoria desde la urgencia del presente
Authors: Faúndez Carreño Tania
Published: December 2024

El 2023 Chile conmemora los cincuenta años del Golpe Militar que acabó con el Gobierno de la Unidad Popular, dirigido por el presidente socialista Salvador Allende. En el marco de esta conmemoración se desplegaron múltiples actividades en alusión al trauma que significó el quiebre de un proyecto de país. La obra Cincuenta años, escrita y dirigida por Marcelo Leonart, e interpretada por el Colectivo El Pony, aborda la herida del Golpe Militar desde la perspectiva de género y apelando a un contexto de guerra del siglo XIX. En el presente artículo abordaremos el discurso femenino y su representación escénica en una dramaturgia de estado de guerra, pues son las mujeres quienes padecen la guerra. De esta forma, la guerra, de hace 50 años o más, penetra los cuerpos y formas de pensar de cuatro mujeres jóvenes, parapetadas en una casa, a modo de trinchera.
Revolución y guerra en el teatro de Santiago Sanguinetti
Authors: Pauletti Daniela
Published: December 2024

Santiago Sanguinetti es un referente posmoderno del teatro político en Uruguay, creador de Trilogía de la revolución, compuesta por Argumento contra la existencia de vida inteligente en el Cono Sur (2012), Sobre la teoría del eterno retorno aplicada a la revolución en el Caribe (2012) y Breve apología del caos por exceso de testosterona en las calles de Manhattan (2014). La trilogía mantiene un hilo temático conductor: la revolución a través de la “guerra” o el levantamiento armado. Al explorar la representación de la guerra desde la perspectiva de Sanguinetti, es esencial considerar prácticas y discursos revolucionarios del siglo pasado en Uruguay y América Latina (lo que todavía solemos llamar “pasado reciente”), entrelazados con elementos como el guevarismo y la revolución cubana, a los que Sanguinetti agrega la figura del zombie como resultado del capitalismo. A través de la yuxtaposición de elementos disonantes que conviven con referencias al pasado reciente en Uruguay, estas tres obras funcionan como potenciadoras de la reflexión crítica sobre la realidad. Fomentan la conciencia social a través de un humor absurdo e incómodo que interpela la idiosincracia y la identidad colectiva de los uruguayos.
La ausencia de guerra no significa paz: el conflicto como impulso creativo de la escena
Authors: Anunciação Aldri
Published: December 2024

Este artículo resulta de un proceso de investigación-creación y explica cómo se construyeron las figuras temáticas de algunos textos teatrales a partir del concepto de necropolítica presentado por el filósofo Achille Mbembe. Su ensayo devela procedimientos de las narrativas históricas que en la realidad encubren el necropoder y lo legitiman. A partir de él, se pensaron entonces procedimientos para una narrativa ficcional crítica y se implementaron para elaborar una dramaturgia que muestra el recorrido de mortificación de los personajes centrales en situación de guerra (práctica o alegórica). El proceso creativo consistió, en definitiva, en una transposición poético-teatral del pensamiento de Mbembe: se pone al descubierto la contracara necropolítica de procesos conducidos por la administración pública.
Modo de habitar cazador recolector en el valle de Ongamira (ca. 4500-1900 AP)
Authors: Caminoa José María
Published: December 2024

El objetivo de esta investigación es profundizar el conocimiento del modo en que los grupos cazadores recolectores habitaron el valle de Ongamira durante el Holoceno (ca. 4500-1900 AP), a partir de la comprensión de la forma en que organizaron las actividades tecnológicas vinculadas al instrumental lítico producido mediante talla. A tal fin, se realizaron prospecciones, recolecciones y excavaciones que permitieron identificar 21 sitios arqueológico en el área serrana que delimita el valle. El análisis tafonómico, tecno-morfo-funcional y no tipológico de los conjuntos líticos, contribuyeron a comprender la organización y distribución de las actividades tecnológicas. Y la utilización de herramientas de análisis espacial para correlacionar la distribución de las actividades tecnológicas en los sitios, con características geomorfológicas y ambientales del área de estudio contribuyeron a ampliar nuestra comprensión del modo en que estos grupos humanos habitaron el valle de Ongamira. Se propone que las episódicas distribuciones y concentraciones de las personas en el espacio, la redundancia de la ocupación de sitios, la distribución y articulación de actividades en y entre los sitios, posiblemente simultáneas, fueron el modo de articular una red de lugares de identidad, relacionales e históricos, incrementando la densidad de la vida en grupos con escasa densidad poblacional.
Homenaje musical a la abolición de la servidumbre en Rusia
Authors: Bosquet Diego
Published: December 2024

En 1911, al cumplirse el quincuagésimo aniversario de la abolición de la servidumbre en Rusia, el músico ruso Alejo Abutcov compuso dos obras musicales para conmemorar el decreto del zar Alejandro II. Abutcov musicaliza dos textos que celebran el acto emancipatorio, pero nuestra pregunta es si, independientemente del texto, la música per se puede ser vehículo de ideología. Tomamos para eso, como marco teórico, los postulados de Slavoj Žižek y Leonard Meyer, ya que estos autores tienen en cuenta los aspectos no explícitos de la ideología. Para cumplir con nuestro objetivo, analizamos las obras a través del “método ecléctico” propuesto por Lawrence Ferrara, ya que este no se limita exclusivamente a los parámetros musicales, sino que incluye también aspectos históricos y filosóficos. Los resultados obtenidos nos indican que, efectivamente, la música es portadora de ideología, y llegamos a la conclusión de que la ideología presente en las dos obras analizadas es la del Nacionalismo Oficial que había sido instaurado en Rusia, en 1833, durante el gobierno del zar Nicolás I. Podemos ver de esta manera, que la música no es meramente un accesorio del texto, sino que tiene el poder propio para transmitir un mensaje ideológico.

A fome é a principal causa de morte e desamparo no planeta, matando silenciosamente e diariamente milhões de indivíduos. Sendo assim, a segurança alimentar e a saúde pública desempenham papéis fundamentais na compreensão do contexto de migração e imigração em países afetados pela fome, refletindo não apenas a situação nutricional das populações, mas também as vulnerabilidades que as pessoas vivenciam. A insegurança alimentar é uma forma perversa de fome que alimenta o mundo contemporâneo, invisibilizando sujeitos e os matando por múltiplas violações. É certo afirmar que a fome fragiliza a população mundial e fere os direitos humanos fundamentais para além das fronteiras. Este texto, portanto, visa discutir as vulnerabilidades relacionadas à fome entre migrantes e refugiados no panorama mundial sobre fluxos migratórios e segurança alimentar. A partir de uma revisão de literatura narrativa e da pesquisa documental, são apresentados dados sobre o cenário atual da fome global, nos quais aprofunda-se a compreensão de como os direitos humanos de migrantes e refugiados podem ser incorporados nas estratégias das políticas de cooperação internacional na luta por uma vida digna a todos.
A case report of an elderly with herpes zoster and atrial fibrillation taking warfarin
Authors: Putra Gilang , Devina Wilona , Priyadarshini Ida Ayu Uttari
Published: December 2024

Background: Herpes zoster (HZ) presents with unilateral dermatomal pain and rash resulting from the reactivation and proliferation of latent varicella zoster virus (VZV) that dwells in neurons following varicella. It mostly occurs in the elderly and in immunocompromised . Warfarin consumption can lead to dysregulation of cytokines that cause immune dysregulation, which can be a factor in the reactivation of herpes zoster. There is limited research or study exploring the correlation between herpes zoster reactivation and the use of warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation This case report aim to investigate potential role of anticoagulant therapy, specifically warfarin, in the reactivation of HZ in elderly patients, and to explore the implications of polypharmacy and immune dysregulation in the management and prevention of HZ.
Case Description: A 55-year-old male with a history of atrial fibrillation, currently on warfarin, was admitted with complaints of pain blister lession that developed 7 days post-discharge from the Cardiology department. His initial symptoms included pruritus and pain localized to the chest and right thoracic area. Dermatological examination revealed herpetiform vesicles on an erythematous base, accompanied by crusts and scabs, distributed along thoracic dermatomes T6-T8.
Conclusion: Elderly patients often experience polypharmacy due to degenerative diseases. Cardiovascular treatment often includes anticoagulants such as warfarin. Following 1 week after the administration of topical antibiotic and steroid ointments, the patient demonstrated a positive clinical outcome with a few complications after HZ infection.

This paper examines the relations (especially economic and social) that were established after the end of the Second World War in a region divided by national borders. Defining the border in an area inhabited by a population that identified itself ethnically and linguistically differently, was extremely complex. Changing political circumstances or regimes have ulteriorly complicated the situation. The question was therefore not only the one of survival on a everyday level, but also of adapting to the new political circumstances.
The paper, which primarily dealt with everyday survival strategies and experiences in the border area, showed one perspective or approach to studying the topic. The central question was how the borderline, which physically and ideologically divided the space, affected the local population along the Yugoslav-Italian border in Istria. The research focused on the population on the eastern side of the former border. In order to gain a broader and better understanding of the relations and interactions between the inhabitants of the border area, similar research should be carried out with the population on the western side of the then »new« border.

As the topic of children during the war has been only sparsely addressed in Slovenian historiography, the first part of this contribution presents the project titled Spomini še živijo (Memories Live On), which provides an insight into the fates of children who survived the war. The project was carried out by the Institute for Contemporary History in cooperation with the Fužine retirement home and the Borec magazine. In the second part of the contribution, the authors present the category of minors from the territory of present-day Slovenia who lost their lives during or immediately after World War II
»Jugoslovanske meje so na Baltiku, poljske na Jadranu«: Jugoslavija, Poljska in jugoslovansko priznanje meje na Odri in Nisi

In September 1957, during a Polish delegation’s visit to Belgrade, the Yugoslav leadership recognised the Oder-Neisse line as the official Polish-German border. This decision was soon followed by the establishment of diplomatic relations between Yugoslavia and theGerman Democratic Republic. In response, the Federal Republic of Germany invoked the Hallstein Doctrine, resulting in a renewed escalation of tensions in Central Europe after a period of easing relations between East and West. This paper examines the involvement ofPolish diplomacy in the Yugoslav recognition of the Oder-Neisse line. Based on the Polish and Yugoslav foreign policy, Party, and media sources, it places Yugoslav support for Poland’s border issue within the broader context of Polish-Yugoslav relations and explores the course and consequences of this bilateral interaction. Employing a relational approach and the concept of international friendship, the paper illustrates how the cooperation between Poland and Yugoslavia advanced the individual and mutual interests of both states. It also explores how they affirmed their identities and roles on the global stage while striving to evade superpower dominance and shape their foreign policies.

Allium species contain phenolic compounds that have been proven, by the inclusion in animal feed or directly on meat, to influence organoleptic attributes of meat and meat products. Hence, the effect of dietary supplementation of Onion Skin Extract (OSE) on performance and sensory properties of broiler chickens were investigated at the finisher phase. In a 4-week trial with Marshal broiler chicks (n=168), birds were allotted to four treatments, each replicated six times with seven birds per replicate in a completely randomized design. Birds were fed basal diet as the control, while diet 2, 3 and 4 contained 100, 200 and 300mg/kg of feed respectively. Increased OSE in broiler finisher diet improved (P < 0.05) feed to weight gain. Supplementation of diet with OSE in broiler diet did not affect the primal cuts (P > 0.05). Birds on 100mg/kg of OSE had higher weight gain (P < 0.05) than other treatments. Apart from gall bladder, abdominal fat, heart, liver and spleen were not different (P > 0.05). Increased OSE improved (P < 0.05) performance of chicken, flavour, aroma, tenderness and overall acceptability of broiler meat.
 
 
Les espèces d’Allium contiennent des composés phénoliques dont il a été prouvé, par leur inclusion dans les aliments pour animaux ou directement sur la viande, qu'ils influencent les attributs organoleptiques de la viande et des produits à base de viande. Par conséquent, l'effet de la supplémentation alimentaire en extrait de peau d'oignon (EPO) sur les performances et les propriétés sensorielles des poulets de chair a été étudié lors de la phase de finition. Dans un essai de 4 semaines avec des poussins à griller Marshal (n = 168), les oiseaux ont été répartis dans quatre traitements, chacun répété six fois avec sept oiseaux par répétition dans une conception entièrement randomisée. Les oiseaux ont reçu un régime de base comme témoin, tandis que les régimes 2, 3 et 4 contenaient respectivement 100, 200 et 300 mg/kg de nourriture. L'augmentation de l'EPO dans le régime de finition des poulets de chair a amélioré (P < 0,05) l'alimentation par rapport au gain de poids. La supplémentation de l'alimentation en EPO dans l'alimentation des poulets de chair n'a pas affecté les coupes primaires (P > 0,05). Les oiseaux recevant 100 mg/kg d'EPO avaient un gain de poids plus élevé (P < 0,05) que les autres traitements. En dehors de la vésicule biliaire, la graisse abdominale, le cœur, le foie et la rate n'étaient pas différents (P > 0,05). L'augmentation de l'EPO a amélioré (P < 0,05) la performance du poulet, la saveur, l'arôme, la tendreté et l'acceptabilité globale de la viande de poulet.

Published: December 2024

A vacinação é essencial para prevenir doenças infecciosas e proteger vidas, mas o Brasil tem sofrido com uma queda significativa na cobertura vacinal, o que aumenta o risco de surtos de doenças como sarampo, febre amarela e HPV. Este estudo objetiva investigar os fatores por trás dessa queda, com ênfase no impacto da manipulação de notícias e da desinformação, que contribuem para a hesitação vacinal. A metodologia adotada é uma revisão de literatura, com análise de fontes confiáveis, incluindo artigos acadêmicos e relatórios de saúde pública, para identificar e compreender como o engano midiático, disseminado principalmente nas redes sociais, afetam a confiança nas vacinas. Além da desinformação, o estudo destaca fatores como desigualdade social, barreiras de acesso aos serviços de saúde e falhas na comunicação pública, que prejudicam especialmente regiões mais vulneráveis. Os dados analisados mostram que esses fatores, aliados à desinformação, alimentam a desconfiança na eficácia e segurança das vacinas, levando à hesitação vacinal. Conclui-se que é necessário um esforço conjunto entre governo, instituições de saúde e mídia para promover uma comunicação acessível e combater a desinformação, visando aumentar a aceitação vacinal no país.

Este artigo teve como objetivo investigar a prevenção de infecções associadas ao uso de cateter totalmente implantado (CTI) em pacientes oncológicos pediátricos, destacando a importância de práticas seguras e capacitação profissional. O estudo utilizou uma abordagem de revisão integrativa da literatura, analisando artigos publicados nos últimos cinco anos em bases de dados científicas, com foco em medidas preventivas, fatores de risco e impacto na qualidade de vida dos pacientes. Os principais resultados mostraram que as infecções da corrente sanguínea (ICS) são complicações frequentes em pacientes pediátricos com câncer, especialmente devido ao comprometimento imunológico desses pacientes. A adesão às técnicas assépticas, higiene rigorosa das mãos e educação contínua das equipes de saúde foram identificadas como estratégias eficazes para reduzir infecções. Além disso, atuação do enfermeiro foi destacada como essencial no manejo do CTI, englobando manutenção adequada, identificação precoce de complicações e suporte emocional ao paciente e sua família. Concluiu-se que, apesar dos avanços na tecnologia e nos protocolos, ainda há lacunas na aplicação prática dessas medidas. A vigilância contínua, o treinamento profissional e a implementação de políticas baseadas em evidências são fundamentais para minimizar as complicações infecciosas e melhorar os resultados clínicos e a qualidade de vida dos pacientes oncológicos pediátricos.
