The Cumulation of Debris Clouds around a Fast-rotating Asteroid
Authors: Huang Chenyang , Yu Yang , Song Zhijun , Cheng Bin , Michel Patrick , Baoyin Hexi
Published: October 2024

The rotational mass loss has been realized to be a prevalent mechanism to produce low-speed debris near the asteroid, and the size composition of the asteroid’s surface regolith has been closely measured by in situ explorations. However, the full-scale evolution of the shedding debris has not been examined using the observed particle sizes, which may hold vital clues to the initial growth of an asteroid moonlet and help us to understand the general mechanisms that dominate the formation of asteroid systems. This paper presents our study on the cumulative evolution of the debris cloud formed by a rotationally unstable asteroid. A semianalytical model is developed to characterize the spatiotemporal evolution of the debris cloud posterior to a shedding event. Large-scale discrete element method (DEM) simulations are performed to quantify the clustering behavior of the debris particles in the mechanical environment near the asteroid. As a result, we found that the cumulation of a steady debris cloud is dominated by large pieces of debris, and the shedding particles follow a common migration trend, which fundamentally determines the mass distribution of the debris cloud. For the accretion analysis, we sketched the life cycle of a debris cluster and showed its dependency on particle size. The DEM simulations adopt physical parameters estimated from observations and asteroid missions. The results confirm that porous fluffy cluster structures can form shortly after a shedding event with magnitudes the same as the observed shedding activities. Measurements of these structures show that they themselves possess a certain strength and have the capacity to collisions to absorb dissociative particles that collide with them.

New JWST/NIRCam wide-field slitless spectroscopy provides redshifts for four z > 8 galaxies located behind the lensing cluster MACS J0416.1−2403. Two of them, “Y1” and “JD,” have previously reported spectroscopic redshifts based on Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array measurements of [O iii] 88 μm and/or [C ii] 157.7 μm lines. Y1 is a merging system of three components, and the existing redshift z = 8.31 is confirmed. However, JD is at z = 8.34 instead of the previously claimed z = 9.28. JD’s close companion, “JD-N,” which was a previously discovered z > 8 candidate, is now identified at the same redshift as JD. JD and JD-N form an interacting pair. A new candidate at z > 8, “f090d_018,” is also confirmed and is at z = 8.49. These four objects are likely part of an overdensity that signposts a large structure extending ∼165 kpc in projected distance and ∼48.7 Mpc in radial distance. They are magnified by less than 1 mag and have an intrinsic M
UV ranging from −19.57 to −20.83 mag. Their spectral energy distributions show that the galaxies are all very young with ages ∼ 4–18 Myr and stellar masses of about 107–8
M
⊙. These infant galaxies have very different star formation rates ranging from a few to over a hundred solar masses per year, but only two of them (JD and f090d_018) have blue rest-frame UV slopes β < −2.0 indicative of a high Lyman-continuum photon escape fraction that could contribute significantly to the cosmic hydrogen-reionizing background. Interestingly, these two galaxies are the least massive and least active ones among the four. The other two systems have much flatter UV slopes largely because of their high dust extinction (A

V
= 0.9–1.0 mag). Their much lower indicated escape fractions show that even very young, actively star-forming galaxies can have a negligible contribution to reionization when they quickly form dust throughout their bodies.
Testing of UV fluorescence marking with daily recaptures of a low-mobile bush-cricket species
Authors: Varga Szabolcs , Kenyeres Zoltán
Published: October 2024

The primary goal of developing new mark–release–recapture (MRR) methods is to make MMR more cost-effective and able to provide more information. To test the effectiveness of UV fluorescence marking, a case study was carried out on an Isophya costata population occurring in a mown grassland with a heterogeneous vegetation pattern. The marked individuals were examined daily, from the emergence of imagos until the mowing of the habitat.

The 40 marked insects (20 males and 20 females) were recaptured in 206 cases over 16 days (32.2% of the potential maximal recaptures). The finding of males was 26.2% successful, and the finding of females was 38.1% successful. Females released in shorter and sparse vegetation were recaptured more than those released in dense vegetation or than males. Recaptures showed a significant decrease during the study period in almost all groups based on Mann–Kendall trend tests. Detections were made on the upper third of the vertical structure of the vegetation in 88% of cases. In most of the detections (males: 70%, females: 62%), the axis of the insect’s body was more likely to be located vertically. The results showed that the chance of detection is significantly reduced when the position of the insect’s body is facing the axis of UV illumination. Thus, the visibility of individuals can be greatly increased by marking all sides of the body.
Winter leaf phenology differences facilitate selective control of an invasive plant species by herbicide

Published: October 2024

Herbicide control of invasive plant species is generally efficient. However, there is a likelihood of the excessive application of non-selective herbicides that kill co-occurring native species and cause environmental toxicity. We present a case study on the control of the invasive exotic Solidago canadensis with photosynthetically active leaves in winter by applying glyphosate. This approach improves herbicide control efficiency, while preventing harm to most co-occurring native plants. We quantified the winter leaf phenology and photosynthetic capacity of S. canadensis and two commonly co-occurring native species. We tested the effects of glyphosate and competition on S. canadensis and native Imperata cylindrica with contrasting winter leaf phenology in both pot and field experiments. Finally, we surveyed the life forms and winter leaf phenology of most co-occurring plant species in eastern China to determine whether most co-occurring species and S. canadensis differ in winter leaf phenology. Old leaves withered much later and new leaves developed much earlier in S. canadensis than in the two co-occurring species. Both the old and new leaves of S. canadensis had high photosynthetic capacity in winter. In summer, glyphosate suppressed the growth of S. canadensis by 20.1–59.5% and growth of I. cylindrica to a greater extent (by 57.6–91.7%), whereas winter application of glyphosate at a certain concentration suppressed the growth of S. canadensis by 91.4–95.6% (the efficiency was higher than summer application), but had no impact on I. cylindrica. Glyphosate application in winter alleviated competition stress from S. canadensis on I. cylindrica. We conclude that winter glyphosate application can increase the selectivity and efficiency of chemical control of invasive S. canadensis, which may shift the competition balance towards native species and favour native vegetation recovery in sites invaded by S. canadensis. The principles of this approach can be applied to any scenario where invasive species and co-occurring species have distinct phenological niche separation.

Published: October 2024

Background

The integration of morbidity and mortality (M and M) conferences into advanced practice nurse (APN) nursing curricula is a novel approach aimed at enhancing education, reflective learning, and continuous improvement. M and M conferences have traditionally been a standard practice for medical specialties, yet a gap exists in their utilization within APN education.

Method

A quasiexperimental pilot study with 20 student registered nurse anesthetists was conducted at a large urban academic center. The General Self-Efficacy Scale was utilized to evaluate student self-efficacy and confidence in managing adverse events.

Results

Significant improvement in self-efficacy scores (
p
= .003) postintervention indicated the educational benefits of M and M conferences. All participants reported increased confidence in navigating unexpected events.

Conclusion

The M and M conference is a valuable tool within APN education for cultivating self-efficacy and confidence in navigating adverse events.

Hybrid quantum-classical control problems
Authors: Boghiu Emanuel-Cristian , Clemente-Gallardo Jesús , Jover-Galtier Jorge A. , Martínez-Crespo David
Published: October 2024

The notion of hybrid quantum-classical control system was introduced as a control dynamical system which combined classical and quantum degrees of freedom. Classical and quantum objects were combined within a geometrical description of both types of systems. We also considered the notion of hybrid quantum-classical controllability by means of the usual definitions of geometric control theory, and we discussed how the different concepts associated to quantum controllability are lost in the hybrid context because of the nonlinearity of the dynamics. We also considered several examples of physically relevant problems, such as the spin-boson model or the notion of hybrid spline.
Two fixed point theorems in complete metric spaces
Authors: Huang Huaping , Samet Bessem
Published: October 2024

Two new classes of self-mappings defined on a complete metric space $ (M, d) $ are introduced. The first one, called the class of $ p $-contractions with respect to a family of mappings, includes mappings $ F: M\to M $ satisfying a contraction involving a finite number of mappings $ S_i: M\times M\to M $. The second one, called the class of $ (\psi, \Gamma, \alpha) $-contractions, includes mappings $ F: M\to M $ satisfying a contraction involving the famous ratio $ \psi\left(\frac{\Gamma(t+1)}{\Gamma(t+\alpha)}\right) $, where $ \psi:[0, \infty)\to [0, \infty) $ is a function, $ \Gamma $ is the Euler Gamma function, and $ \alpha\in (0, 1) $ is a given constant. For both classes, under suitable conditions, we establish the existence and uniqueness of fixed points of $ F $. Our results are supported by some examples in which the Banach fixed point theorem is inapplicable. Moreover, the paper includes some interesting questions related to our work for further studies in the future. These questions will push forward the development of fixed point theory and its applications.
Stress and Strain Analysis for a Topological Optimized Beam
Authors: Murariu Gabriel , Perianu Ion Aurel , Galatanu Sergiu Valentin
Published: October 2024

This paper presents a study of a beam manufactured using fused deposition modeling (FDM) which was topologically optimized and subjected to 3-point bending. In this paper polylactic acid (PLA) was used as a material in order to obtain the beams. Topology optimization is a method widely used in the additive manufacturing (AM) field, that uses algorithmic models to optimize the material layout within some parametric restrictions, like conditions, constraints, or sets of loads and it maximizes the performance and capability of the design by extracting material from different zones that are insignificant in terms of carrying loads to reduce the weight of the model. In the first step, the stress and strain state of the simple beam was numerically and analytically calculated, likewise, the experimental test of the beam subjected to 3-point bending was achieved. After the calculus for the simple beam, the next phase aims at the topological optimization process of the beam subjected to 3-point bending. For all the numerical investigations a calibrated material determined experimentally was used. Following calculations and experimental tests, a final version of the beam topologically optimized was reached, with a minimization of the cost regarding the mass of the beam and the material required for its reproduction.

Published: October 2024

Strain sensors for wearable electronics function by identifying mechanical deformations and translating into electrical signals. For optimal performance, electrical conductivity, electrical sensitivity, and flexibility are major properties of strain sensors. Polyurethane (PU) shows promise for custom strain sensors due to its high flexibility. Additionally, using digital light processing (DLP) 3D printing to shape PU is suitable for detecting body movements. Therefore, the aim of this study is developing 3D-printed PU to strain sensing devices, utilizing the surface coating method on 3D-printed PU with carbon black (CB) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to fabricate the (PDMS+CB)/CB/PU strain sensor. The conductive network of CB enhances sensitivity, while PDMS is incorporated to act as an adhesive for the durability of CB on the PU surface. The results of the experiment reveal a gauge factor of 6.04 with range from 1 to 10% elongation. The strain sensor of this study has high potential to use for strain sensing technology and is capable of detecting small body movements.

Published: October 2024

Amorphous alloys exhibit exceptional characteristics not typically associated with other known classes of materials. These alloys are industrially manufactured in the form of ribbons with thicknesses below 50 μm, which presents challenges in their welding process. Resistance spot welding utilizing energy stored in capacitors is employed for thin sheets or foils due to it’s precise energy control during capacitor discharge. This paper presents the findings from experimental research conducted on spot welding metallic amorphous ribbons with a thickness of 30 μm using stored energy in capacitors, aiming to establish effective welding technologies. Several tests with varying parameters were conducted to optimize the welding process and determine the most effective technology for this foil.
Physical Heat Cycle Measurement of Resistance Spot Welding
Authors: Alden Abd Al Al Sahm , Meilinger Ákos , Gáspár Marcell
Published: October 2024

Resistance spot welding (RSW) is still the ideal joining method in the automotive industry. Mostly steel sheets are used in the car body, so overlap and layering are required for welding or riveting, as spot welding provides simultaneous clamping force with interfacial welding to ensure the required strength and quality. A fundamental understanding of heating and cooling rates in thermal distributions is essential for predicting microstructure formation in the weld and the heat-affected zones (HAZ) of RSW joints. The ability to measure the heat cycle in the RSW process can be valuable in weld control and welding parameter optimization. RSW parameters can be optimized through tensile shear tests and microscopic investigations. Heat cycle measurement (HCM) demonstrates the welding consequences in terms of the change in mechanical properties and microstructural formations. The accuracy of cooling rate measurements including t8/5 cooling time is very important to predict the microstructural evolution in the HAZ, however, the thermocouple measurement raises numerous challenges due to the high temperature gradient and small weld and HAZ size. During our investigations heat cycle measurement has been conducted experimentally by a K-type thermocouple. The data logger is connected to the output of the thermocouple for recording the voltage to measure the temperature distributions as a function of both time and position during the welding process. Measurement results of 1 mm thick martensitic MS1400 steel overlapped RSW joints are discussed, and the HCM curve of heating and cooling rates of the spot-welding process is presented. The heat cycle during RSW was measured with two different welding parameter combinations. In addition to welding current, welding time, and electrode force, pulsation has shown disparate curves. Numerous experiments have been attempted to measure the heat cycle in HAZ sub-zones due to the difficulty of positioning the thermocouple accurately, uppercritical HAZ, intercritical HAZ, and subcritical HAZ were investigated and measured in both welding parameter combinations. Difficulties were encountered in the experimental work as a result of the instantaneous welding time and the vibration resulting from the passage of alternating electrical current between the two electrodes. A magnetic field is generated that affects the thermocouple measurement and appears as a noisy curve that is filtered out and smoothed. Joule heat, interfacial heat generation, and cooling effects of electrodes are also considered in the experiment.
Influence of Chelants and Catalyst on Luminescence of CaAl2O4:Eu2+ Phosphors for Optical Temperature Sensing Applications
Authors: Yang Su Hua , Tsai Yi Yan , Ho Chih Chieh
Published: October 2024

This study synthesized CaAl2O4:Eu2+ blue phosphors using the sol-gel method. The effects of incorporating citric acid, poly (oxyethylene) (PEG), and HCl in the precursor on the luminescent properties of phosphors were investigated. No significant changes were observed in the photoluminescence (PL) spectra of the phosphors when different precursor solutions were used. However, the use of PEG and citric acid led to a noticeable decrease in the PL intensity. Notably, the use of HCl resulted in an increase in PL. In addition, upon heating the phosphors from room temperature to 110 °C, the PL spectrum remained unchanged, whereas the PL intensity decreased linearly with increasing temperature. This indicated the suitability of CaAl2O4:Eu2+ for optical temperature-sensing applications.

Published: October 2024

Samples of bones (humerus) and claws of adult Humboldt penguins (Spheniscus humboldti) were opportunistically obtained from twenty-seven carcasses at two important nesting sites in northern Chile: Chañaral Island (CHI) and Pan de Azúcar Island (PAI). The concentrations of trace elements (Cu, Zn, Pb, Ni, Fe, Se, As, Br, Mn and Cr) were determined by X-ray fluorescence. The highest levels (mean ± standard deviation, micrograms/g dry weight) of Cu (26.57 ± 4.08), Zn (163.9 ± 42.7), Pb (1.86 ± 1.53), Ni (0.31 ± 0.03), Se (7.70 ± 4.87) and Cr (0.25 ± 0.24) were detected in bones, whereas the highest levels of Fe (3,162 ± 1,579), As (6.75 ± 4.21), Br (0.12 ± 0.06) and Mn (76.7 ± 47.9) were found in claws. In bones, Se and Ni levels were higher (P < 0.05) in CHI than in PAI. In claws, the contents of Pb, Fe, and Mn were higher at CHI than those at PAI, whereas only As exhibited higher contents at PAI than those found at CHI. The trace element content in the claws and bones found herein may be the result of either acute or chronic exposure to penguins, respectively. These findings may serve as a baseline for further studies to design adequate and opportune plans to protect this vulnerable species.
HOW DOES NATURE AFFECT COMPETITIVENESS AND INNOVATION?
Authors: Mesquita Fernando Campos , Castro Selma Simões , Castillo Ricardo
Published: October 2024

The aim is to strengthen the understanding of nature as an attribute of competitiveness and innovation from a regional perspective. A dialectical relationship is used to consider competitiveness, innovation, and nature as interconnected and not separated dimensions. The expansion of the sugarcane frontier in the south of the Brazilian state of Goiás is taken as empirical evidence. The method compares two municipalities, Mineiros and Goiatuba, with similar economic structures but located respectively in unfavorable and favorable environments. While Mineiros is less competitive than Goiatuba, the challenge of producing sugarcane in soils with higher erodibility stimulated investments in knowledge creation. Keywords: Competitiveness, Regional Innovation, Nature, Sugarcane, Brazil.

Authors: Confessor Jefferson Gomes , Silva Lara Luiza , Rodrigues Silvio Carlos
Published: October 2024

The Cerrado is characterized as an important Brazilian biome, forming strategic hydrographic basins within its territory that are significant both nationally and internationally. Despite its importance, the biome has been increasingly impacted by anthropogenic activities. In this context, this study aims to analyze and understand the physical-hydraulic characteristics of the soil in a sparse Cerrado physiognomy located in the Chapadão do Diamante (Serra da Canastra-MG), providing the necessary foundation for the assessment and development of future management strategies for similar areas. For field data prospecting, a rain simulator and a concentric ring infiltrometer were used. The results demonstrated a high infiltration capacity in the study area, with no significant surface runoff even under high-intensity precipitation (57.35 mm), revealing high values of basic infiltration velocity (BIV) at 626.56 mm/h. Overall, these values are associated with the dynamics of landscape elements, emphasizing the importance of biological processes, such as the role of vegetation and soil fauna, in modulating the soil's ability to retain, infiltrate, and store water. Keywords: Water Infiltration; Rain Simulator; Concentric Ring Infiltrometer.

Published: October 2024

This study aims to evaluate the morphodynamic changes in a beach-cliff system in northeastern Brazil using high resolution data collected by UAV-SfM techniques to understand the geomorphic changes of the coastal landscape. The study used the Geomorphic Change Detection (GCD) method applied to short-term monitoring. This method uses Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) to determine the morphological changes in terms of both erosion and deposition through DEMs of Difference (DoDs). The difference gridded models are acquired by drone-based remote sensing, which can accurately and efficiently provide ultra-high resolution imagery and digital surface model data to measure volumetric changes. The geomorphic changes are observed on high resolution maps. The multi-temporal analysis revealed significant volumes of erosion and deposition throughout the beach-cliff system over the study period. In the first interval (May/2021 - November/2021), the cliff recorded -8,715 m³ of erosion and 2,816 m³ of deposition, with the beach sector showing erosion in 86% of its area. In the second period (November/2021 - March/2022), more severe erosion rates were observed on the cliff, reaching -10,853 m³ with 51% of its area eroded, while the beach showed the opposite behavior to that previously analyzed, with 73% of the beach experiencing an accumulation of sand and a positive balance of 5,960 m³. The results of this study can be fruitful in identifying the different of geomorphology hazards, coastal impacts of cliff urbanization and in the use of remotely piloted aircraft in coastal monitoring. Furthermore, the results indicate that the management of the beach-cliff system must be integrated and never dissociated, as is generally done by coastal managers.

Published: October 2024

The agricultural frontier of the Brazilian Amazon, is undergoing significant changes in its land cover, primarily driven by the expansion of cattle ranching and cocoa cultivation. Through the analysis of Landsat 8 satellite images and the WorldCover 10m 2020 product, combined with climatic and socioeconomic data, this study investigated land use dynamics between 2015 and 2023, on the municipality of Brasil Novo. The results revealed a substantial reduction in forest cover, with the expansion of pasturelands as the main driver of deforestation. The temporal analysis of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) indicated interannual variations in vegetation cover, associated with extreme weather events and anthropogenic pressure. Although the municipality still maintains 43.8% of forest cover, with the Arara Indigenous Land being a notable example, the pressure on natural resources demands the implementation of public policies and sustainable management practices to mitigate environmental impacts and ensure the conservation of Amazonian biodiversity. Keywords: Amazon, NDVI, remote sensing, climate change, livestock, land use.
GEO-ECONOMICS COMPLEXITY AND THE REGIONALS GEOGRAPHIC'S ANALYSIS
Authors: Dentz Eduardo von , Espíndola Carlos José
Published: October 2024

The goal of the paper is to unravel the geo-economic complexity of regional agglomeration economies. For this one, the spatial focus is on the western region of Santa Catarina. The main result of cross-referencing the literature with empirical research data was to break the stereotype that the region under analysis is specialized purely and simply in agro-industrial production. In fact, it is a complex, specialized and diversified geo-economic dynamic; given the overflow of agro-industrial capital into other productive sectors, such as machinery and equipment, mechanical metal, renewable energy, meat production technologies, real estate investments and others. This led to the identification of four agglomeration economies with differences and similarities from a production point of view: Chapecó and Xanxerê, Concórdia and Joaçaba, Videira and Caçador and, finally, São Miguel do Oeste. Methodologically, the research considers three steps: 1) bibliographic and data collection; 2) fieldwork and technical visits; 3) organization, cross-referencing and qualification of the data collected. Keywords: Geo-Economics Complexity; Agglomeration of Economy; West of Santa Catarina.

Published: October 2024

Vivimos en una época donde la Salud Pública enfrenta desafíos constantes, la implementación de sistemas de vigilancia epidemiológica es clave. Uno de estos sistemas es SiViEs Plus, el Sistema para Vigilancia en España, que se ha convertido en una herramienta fundamental para la descripción del patrón epidemiológico y control de las enfermedades transmisibles. Es una nueva plataforma versátil y atractiva que puede satisfacer de manera avanzada todas las necesidades relacionadas con el tratamiento, análisis y gestión de información epidemiológica en el nivel nacional, independientemente de la enfermedad.
La flexibilidad de la plataforma radica en que el Centro Nacional de Epidemiología (CNE) es capaz de gestionar de manera independiente todo el sistema: creación de fichas para enfermedades nuevas, modificación de fichas para adaptar las enfermedades ya existentes a nuevos protocolos, creación de nuevos códigos, creación de periodos de consolidación, gestionar usuarios (altas, bajas, cambios en los datos de los usuarios).
Además, los datos alojados y gestionados por SIVIES Plus se envían al Centro Europeo para la Prevención y el Control de Enfermedades (ECDC) a través del portal europeo de vigilancia de enfermedades infecciosas EpiPulse, siguiendo el calendario de recogida de datos que establece el ECDC, como centro coordinador de la vigilancia epidemiológica en la Unión Europea.
Sin embargo, es importante recordar que el éxito de SiViEs Plus depende de la participación activa de sus usuarios. El trabajo conjunto del CNE, las comunidades y ciudades autónomas y los diferentes ministerios, es clave para mejorar la calidad de la información a la hora de notificar los casos de enfermedades que se vigilan en el ámbito nacional. Solo a través de un esfuerzo conjunto podremos fortalecer este sistema y garantizar una respuesta adecuada en las decisiones e intervenciones en el ámbito de la salud pública.
En conclusión, SiViEs Plus representa un avance significativo en la vigilancia epidemiológica, pero su éxito depende de la colaboración y el compromiso de todos.

The Influence of Workload and Work Environment on the Turnover Intention of Employees in PT. XYZ
Authors: Rahmansyah Ezra , Indiyati Dian
Published: October 2024

This research aims to investigate the impact of workload and work environment on employee turnover intention at PT. XYZ. High turnover intentions can disrupt workforce stability and result in significant costs for the company. Two factors often associated with turnover intention are workload and work environment. Excessive workload can cause stress and fatigue, while an unsupportive work environment can reduce employee satisfaction and commitment. The study uses a quantitative approach, distributing questionnaires to 107 employees and sampling using the saturated sample method. Data analysis was conducted using SEM-PLS software. The hypothesis test tested the influence of workload and work environment on employee turnover intention. The results showed that workload variable (X1) is in the high category, work environment variable (X2) is in the bad category, and turnover intention (Y) is in the medium category. Quantitative data analysis with SEM-PLS showed that workload variables do not have a significant influence on turnover intention, while work environment variables have a significant influence. The research aims to evaluate company management's attention to workload and work environment conditions, with one variable showing a significant positive influence on employee turnover intention

Magetan Regency is one of the most remote districts in East Java Province, with a population that increases every year. This causes an increase in transportation needs. The dominant mode of transportation used in Magetan Regency is motorbikes, with the number of motorbikes in 2020 amounting to 317,085 (BPS Magetan Regency, 2023). The increase in the amount of transportation is accompanied by the risk of the transportation itself, namely traffic accidents. The number of traffic accidents in Magetan Regency in 2017 was 547 incidents; in 2018 it increased to 870 incidents. Based on previous research in the Magetan Regency area and its surroundings, it was found that accidents were influenced by human factors. Because of this, this research carried out an analysis of gender-based accident characteristics in Magetan Regency. Based on the results of the analysis using the descriptive analysis method using the cross-tabulation method in IBM SPSS, the driver characteristics were obtained, namely that the age of accident victims was predominantly 17-25 years old, and the majority of drivers had a driving license (SIM).

The neonatal mortality rate in East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) remains high, with 80% of neonatal deaths occurring in the early period. This study aims to analyze the risk factors contributing to early neonatal death in Kupang District. A retrospective case-control study was conducted, involving 31 cases of early neonatal death and 69 controls from medical records from January 2023 to June 2024. Multinomial logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influence of maternal health, birth, neonatal factors, and healthcare facility readiness. The results showed that birth weight, frequency of antenatal visits, and the completeness of medical equipment were significant predictors of early neonatal death. More frequent antenatal visits were found to reduce the risk of death by 24%, while low birth weight increased the risk by 30%. In conclusion, interventions focusing on preventing low birth weight, ensuring compliance with minimum antenatal visits, and improving the readiness of basic healthcare facilities could reduce early neonatal death in this region.
Considerações sobre o conceito de missão no Prólogo do IV Evangelho (Jo 1,1-18)
Authors: Moreira Santana Pedro , Neves da Silva Rodrigo
Published: October 2024

O objetivo é tecer algumas considerações sobre o conceito de missão no prólogo de IV Evangelho, que, singularmente, é apresentado como a revelação do Pai. Revelar Deus é uma parte importante da missão do logos encarnado, porque o Pai outrora era considerado invisível pelo povo de Israel, ou seja, oculto à capacidade humana de perceber a realidade. É interessante entender a missão do enviado, do ungido, no relato do Prólogo do Evangelho segundo João, a fim de se entender a finalidade e os meios pelos quais Jesus cumpriu esta missão. A estrutura do Prólogo permite desenvolver o princípio histórico-salvífico do logos encarnado que veio ao mundo revelar a face de Deus. Assim, a missão do Filho é primeiro tornar acessível a participação nos bens celestes por parte dos que se aproximam da verdadeira luz. Ainda é fundamental perceber o movimento de plenitude de todo o gênero humano, capaz de acolher ou de ignorar a luz de acordo com a própria liberdade. Abordando a missão vivida por Jesus Cristo e relatada segundo João, pode-se visualizar o evangelista escrevendo obras e palavras do logos encarnado que culminam na concretização do plano exposto no Prólogo em paralelo à missão do Batista.
