Ethical Data Stratification and Analysis to Eliminate Unconscious Bias in Learning Health Systems for Palliative Medicine
Authors: Miori Virginia , Chalmers Kyle , Miori Daniel
Published: May 2021

Learning Health Systems (LHS) produce analyses supporting medical decision making. Though algorithms are chosen to eliminate bias, we are left with unconscious bias present in data, due to lack of representation for marginalized populations. This is especially problematic in palliative care. Medical practitioners lack historical foundations for decision making for patients in these underrepresented populations. This paper first reviews the ethical foundations that drive our approach, then describes data stratification and analysis supporting a data-ethical LHS. Kaplan-Meier curves are generated for each of the stratum, demonstrating the value of palliative care and its impact on survival. Data were collected from government and foundation sources, stratified and analyzed to more appropriately weight medical history and characteristics to improve decision making for all populations.

Village Morphology and the Construction of Place Identity in the Aihui Area along the Heilongjiang River, China
Authors: Wei Dong , Yani Yang , Yu Dong
Published: May 2021

Place identity is the emotional connection between people and a place.
It is significant for local development and people’s satisfaction and
happiness in where they reside. The physical environment is one of the
most important factors affecting people’s emotions toward a place. In
order to clarify the theoretical analytical framework of the process
from village space morphology to place identity, this study takes the
area of Aihui along the Heilongjiang River, China, as an example. The
research was conducted regarding two aspects: First, we analyzed the
space morphology of the villages in the Aihui district and interpreted
their locality. On this basis, we conducted a survey of villagers’
subjective perceptions of the village space and their place identity
through in-depth interviews. From the collected interview texts, we
extracted, verified, and analyzed the role of morphological constituents
in the construction of place identity. Finally, a comprehensive
framework was established. The features of space morphology are the
projections of locality in physical space. People use morphological
constituents to construct an image of the village and scenes of local
life; morphological constituents with local characteristics can help
enhance people’s place identity.
Microplastics and phagotrophic soil protists: evidence of ingestion
Authors: Kanold E P , Rillig M C , Antunes PM
Published: May 2021

Microplastics (MPs) can now be found in all the Earth’s biomes, thereby
representing a global change phenomenon with largely unknown
consequences for biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. Soil protists
are eukaryotic, primarily single celled organisms that play important
roles in the soil food web. Microplastics have been shown to affect
protist populations in freshwater and marine environments, yet the
interactions between soil protists and MPs remains largely unknown. Here
we examined whether phagotrophic soil protists can ingest MPs and
experience declines in abundance. We exposed protists to soil treatments
with different concentrations of MPs using commercial polymer
fluorescent microspheres and used fluorescence microscopy to find
evidence of MP ingestion. In addition, we quantified the total number of
active phagotrophic protists over time. We show that most soil protists
(>75% individuals) can readily ingest and keep MP within
their food vacuoles, even at relatively small MP concentrations (0.1%
w/w). There was a trend for higher prevalence of ingestion and for
declines in protist abundance at the highest concentration of MPs (1%
w/w). However, more data are necessary to further ascertain cause-effect
relationships. This is the first report indicating that soil protists
can play an important role in the transport and uptake of MPs in the
soil food web.
Efficiency of Femoral Nerve Block for Recovery after Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty
Authors: TEKGUL Zeki Tuncel , Bilgin Mehmet Ugur , Kayali Cemil
Published: May 2021

Purpose The aim of our study is to evaluate the efficiency of femoral
nerve block on recovery after primary total knee arthroplasty. Our
primary goal is to provide adequate analgesia with a lower concentration
of bupivacaine (0.125%) as well as the usual concentration (0.25%).
Comparing the degree of motor block, side effects, postoperative pain
scores, opioid consumption, and ambulation and discharge times are our
secondary goals. Methods The study was conducted as randomized,
controlled and double blind. Sixty three patients were randomised into
three groups: G125(n:21) received FNB with 20ml of 0,125% bupivacaine,
G25(n:21) received 10ml of 0,25% bupivacaine and GCont(n:21) received
no block. FNB was applied with ultrasound guidance after the operation.
Pain scores(NRS) at certain time intervals, total opioid consumption,
motor block, knee flexion and discharge times were recorded. Results For
GCont, pain scores were significantly higher at 2nd, 6th, 12th and 24th
hour postoperatively, total opioid consumption was higher(G125:75mg,
G25:0mg, GCont:280mg) and first opioid demand time was earlier(G125:12th
hour, G25:21st hour GCont:2nd hour). First knee flexion time and
mobilization time were also delayed for GCont. G25 had lower scores for
quadriceps muscle strength(G25:3/5, G125:4/5, GCont:5/5, Manual Test at
6th Hour), but this did not affect mobilization compared to G125.
Conclusion G125 had lower quadriceps muscle strength loss compared to
the G25 and earlier mobilization and flexion times, low opioid
consumption and low pain scores compared to the control group. In this
respect, we believe the femoral nerve block with 0,125% bupivacaine
proves to be a suitable option for analgesia with the potential of
maintaining enough movement for recovery after TKA.

Authors: Yahya Muhyidin , Maftuhati Maftuhati , Mustofa Abdul Hayyi , Arifa Zakiyah
Published: May 2021

Currently, Arabic language learning is required to be held online. In this situation, the government has forced to announce instructions for implementing online learning since March 2020. However, these instructions have made Arabic teachers experiencing difficulties in implementing online learning. Innovative learning management is highly needed to overcome these problems. Therefore, this study aims to provide an overview of the management of Arabic language learning, especially in planning, implementing, and evaluating, organized by teachers who are members of the Arabic teachers’ forum. This study used a descriptive method by adopting data analysis techniques from Miles and Huberman. The results of this study indicate that in planning, the Arabic teachers made a lesson plan which would be held online. As for implementing the lesson plan, the teachers use synchronous and asynchronous models. They also used a combination of two models, a written test presented using Google form and Quizizz media for evaluation. On the other hand, some teachers also conducted oral tests using voice recordings through WhatsApp. This research suggests that teachers can better manage the planning, implementing, and evaluating online learning in the era of the COVID-19 pandemic following the characteristics and models of online learning.
Tracing the Development of Arabic Khat from the Land of Origin to Indonesian Archipelago
Authors: Albantani Azkia Muharom , Adha Ahmad Adhia , Mushoffa Aida , Syafiroh Helya
Published: May 2021

Several studies showed that Arabic khat had been widely developed in countries with a Muslim majority population.  However, many previous studies have not examined the origin of the Arabic khat and its development from different periods. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the source of Arabic khat, the product and the figures from different periods, and several other things related to Arabic khat. This research was done in qualitative research with a descriptive historical approach through a literature-based study to examine data and information. The research was conducted by limiting the study's scope on Arabic khat development from the Umayyad dynasty to its expansion in Indonesia. The results showed that the Arab Khat began to develop centuries ago during the Umayyad dynasty. Three factors caused calligraphy to increase: the influence of power expansion, the kings and social elites' role, and the influence of science development. Moreover, the encouragement coming from the verses of al-Qur'an, the motivation to write al-Qur'an, and the use of Arabic as al-Qur'an language are also the factors in the development of Arabic khat. Hence, it is no wonder that the term Arabic khat is synonymous with al-Qur'an's khat.

La impronta del Decadentismo y Simbolismo en El yermo de las almas de Valle-Inclán y su proyección en el arte decimonónico finisecular
Authors: García Miriam
Published: May 2021

El propósito de este artículo es analizar la simbología decadente de uno de los dramas simbolistas de Ramón María del Valle-Inclán: El yermo de las almas. El estudio está dividido en dos secciones claramente diferenciadas: en primer lugar, la simbología creada en la atmósfera y ambientación de la obra dramática, relacionada con la literatura maeterlinkiana. En segundo lugar, el tratamiento de la mujer, su belleza decadente en una apología de la enfermedad. No obstante, no nos detendremos en lo textual, ya algo estudiado por la crítica valleinclanesca. Lo relevante de este estudio es establecer analogías de los detalles del autor con la pintura coetánea al drama, esto es, las representaciones pictóricas del decadentismo modernista español. De ese modo, las acotaciones, la decoración dramática y los personajes son analizados en su similitud con algunas de las pinturas más relevantes del periodo; artistas como Santiago Rusiñol, Ramón Casas, Anglada Camarasa o Zuloaga serán tratados en este artículo. En definitiva, se expone la maestría pictórica del escritor en sus dramas, que pudieran ser tratados como auténticas pinturas.
La mujer negra, lesbiana y punk en Cuba: la representación de La Gofia en Cien Botellas en una pared de Ena Lucía Portela
Authors: Smith Lucinda Anna
Published: May 2021

Cien botellas en una pared (Ena Lucía Portela, 2002) presenta varias personas viviendo en los márgenes de la sociedad habanera durante los 1990 y 2000. Aquí, analizaré el personaje de La Gofia, una bailarina lesbiana no-blanca con una estética punk, que alberga fiestongas ilegales y sexualmente inclusivas. Al utilizar las teorías feminista y queer, e incorporar las relaciones raciales en Cuba, usaré la novela de Portela para echar luz en las hegemonías culturales cubanas que dejan la mujer no-normativa la Otra, y demostrar cómo La Gofia desafía y desestabiliza estas estructuras para crear espacio para ella misma y su comunidad.

MENAKAR TEOLOGI KEADILAN DALAM POLIGAMI
Authors: Khalik Subehan
Published: May 2021

As a law passed by God, polygamy has transedental elements that often cause various interpretations. In this context, polygamy creates a new atmosphere for restoring the values of justice in its practice of law. If men are responsible for their actions as per the Qadariyah group's thinking, then polygamy should provide justice for women. However, if polygamy means the prerogative of God to bring down the law, then the demands of justice in this act cannot be brought forward because the law has become the absolute will of God.

Social action is an important aspect in analyzing behavior, including in analyzing the political participation of individuals and society. Diverse forms of political participation indicate that individuals make choices of political participation based on subjective considerations with reference to costs and rewards. In the conception of Rational Choice Theory from James S. Coleman, there are 2 main essences, namely actors and resources. Actors as actors of participation, have the power to use resources, including external resources or political modalities so that the actors' political objectives are achieved.

La vida como una posibilidad limitada. El problema de la libertad en José Ortega y Gasset
Authors: Leszczyna Dorota Maria
Published: May 2021

En este artículo deseo abordar el problema de la libertad en el ámbito de la filosofía de José Ortega y Gasset. Debemos señalar que la interpretación del problema de la libertad en Ortega es una de las muchas ejemplificaciones de su proyecto de liberación del realismo y el idealismo, el racionalismo y el vitalismo, el determinismo y el indeterminismo y otros “ismos” que tienen carácter excluyente, y por eso abstracto e hipotético, y constituir en su lugar una nueva filosofía, una filosofía “sobrepartidista”, real e integradora, es decir, que estuviera libre de la elección dogmática de cualquiera de las partes. En este sentido, este problema está estrechamente vinculado con toda su filosofía, que él mismo definía como filosofía raciovital o filosofía de la razón vital e histórica.

Evaluation of Terminalia glaucescens Chromatographic Fractions on Meloidogyne incognita Infecting Chili Pepper (Capsicum chinense)
Authors: Fabiyi Oluwatoyin Adenike
Published: May 2021

Nematodes are widespread organisms and pose a serious problem in vegetable production. The use of synthetic nematicides is a common method of bringing down the nematode population to increase crop yield. This has, however, brought about serious pollution to the environment. Leaves and twigs of Terminalia glaucescens were extracted in organic solvents and then chromatographed on a silica gel column. Chromatographic fractions obtained from the methanol and acetone crude extracts were characterized with UV-visible, FTIR, and GCMS and tested for their potential nematode suppressing activity in field micro plots. Spectroscopic analysis of the fractions revealed the presence of compounds such as aldehydes, acids, ketones, phenols, terpenes, hydrocarbons, and fatty acid esters. The extract fractions of T. glaucescens were applied at 100, 75, and 50 mg·ml−1 at 100 ml each and carbofuran at 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 kg a.i.·ha−1. The vegetative growth of pepper plants as well as the number and weight of fruits increased significantly in plants treated with the above-mentioned extract fractions. The protective role of fractions compared favorably with the synthetic nematicide (carbofuran). The most effective in reduction of the nematode population, and plant growth and yield was the highest concentration of 100 mg·ml−1. Thus, organic solvent extract fractions from T. glaucescens can serve as a biopesticide and an alternative to the environmentally hazardous synthetic nematicide.

Authors: Aschenbrenner Bertram , Negro Giulia , Savic Dragana , Sorokin Maxim , Buzdin Anton , Ganswindt Ute , Cemazar Maja , Sersa Gregor , Skvortsov Sergej , Skvortsova Ira
Published: May 2021

Background

Statins, small molecular 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase inhibitors, are widely used to lower cholesterol levels in lipid-metabolism disorders. Recent preclinical and clinical studies have shown that statins exert beneficial effects in the management of breast cancer by increasing recurrence free survival. Unfortunately, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive.

Materials and methods

Simvastatin, one of the most widely prescribed lipophilic statins was utilized to investigate potential radiosensitizing effects and an impact on cell survival and migration in radioresistant breast cancer cell lines.

Results

Compared to parental cell counterparts, radioresistant MDA-MB-231-RR, T47D-RR andAu565-RR cells were characterized by upregulation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutharyl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR) expression accompanied by epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) activation. Radioresistant breast cancer cells can be killed by simvastatin via mobilizing of a variety of pathways involved in apoptosis and autophagy. In the presence of simvastatin migratory abilities and vimentin expression is diminished while E-cadherin expression is increased.

Conclusions

The present study suggests that simvastatin may effectively eradicate radioresistant breast carcinoma cells and diminish their mesenchymal phenotypes.
The flipped classroom: Improving critical thinking for critical reading of EFL learners in higher education
Authors: Yulian Ryani
Published: May 2021

The immersion of the flipped classroom teaching model in blended and online language learning is indispensable. The purpose of this study was to propose improvement in critical thinking in reading through the flipped classroom teaching model of EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners in higher education. A quasi-experimental design was used to improve reading skills based on the framework of critical thinking for critical reading with a paired t-test of pre-test and post-test. The participants were 37 second-semester students in the English for Academic Purposes class. The results show that the flipped classroom teaching model enhanced students’ critical thinking for critical reading in the aspects of accuracy, clarity, precision, depth, relevance, and logic from the mean score of the pre-tests (12.4865) to the post-tests (18.3243). Students had a positive perception of the implementation of this model in terms of self-directed learning. This study implies that critical thinking for critical reading skills needs supportive teaching and learning environment that can allow students to have self-study prior to the class so that online learning can be effective to synergize the application of flipped classrooms with critical thinking skills in reading.
Recasts, prompts and noticing: A comparative study
Authors: Siow Chin Choo , Pillai Stefanie , Zainuddin Siti Zaidah
Published: May 2021

Noticing has been regarded as an important theoretical construct in the mechanism of how corrective feedback (CF) facilitates second language acquisition. However, to date, only a paucity of CF research has examined noticing triggered by different types of CF (i.e., recasts vs. prompts). The study is intended to fill in the gap by examining the relationships between type of CF and level of noticing. To that end, 105 Malaysian ESL learners were asked to perform four communicative tasks during which recasts and prompts were provided contingent upon the encounter of past tense errors.  To assess noticing, the study has employed a triangulated method using multiple elicitation procedures including diary writing, stimulated recall, and exit questionnaire. The results of the study revealed that both recasts and prompts were able to induce noticing the corrective intent, noticing the target of CF or form, noticing the gap, and noticing the rule. However, contrary to what was expected, recasts were able to promote higher levels of noticing across all noticing categories. Moreover, the greatest difference between recasts and prompts was found in noticing the gap. The study suggests that CF that provides exemplars of the target linguistic feature may promote higher levels of noticing the gap which may, in turn, increase the effectiveness of CF in L2 acquisition.
Collocates of 'great' and 'good' in the Corpus of Contemporary American English and Indonesian EFL textbooks
Authors: Oktavianti Ikmi Nur , Sarage Japen
Published: May 2021

Previous studies have proven some discrepancies between language presented in EFL textbooks and the real use of English. This fact contradicts the teaching materials’ aim, which is intended to equip the learners to be communicatively competent. This study then investigates the use of adjectives, limited to ‘great’ and ‘good’ in terms of the frequent and strong co-occurrences, i.e., collocations, in a general reference corpus of Standard English to be compared with those in Indonesian EFL textbooks. The data were collected from both the corpus and the textbooks, but the analyses in the textbooks were generated based on the Mutual Information (MI) score of the collocates. Based on the comparison, it is evident that there are some similarities between adjective use in the textbooks and the corpus in terms of verb collocates of the adjectives. The mismatches, however, are quite remarkable, especially in terms of the variability of adverb collocates and the absence of prominent noun collocates in the textbooks. Pedagogically speaking, these results should be taken into consideration in writing the textbooks to enhance the quality of the language content prepared for the learners in the EFL context.
Textual and discoursal strategies of national leaders to establish their political images in the global arena
Authors: Kristina Diah , Setiarini Ni Luh Putu , Thoyibi Muhammad
Published: May 2021

Giving speeches is one’s vital competency for creating a country’s image in the global arena. Every political speech represents the speaker’s deliberative reasoning to respond to the existing situation and is a synoptic lens of the intended judgment on particular issues. This study explores three Indonesian speakers’ textual and discoursal strategies in the opening of three political speeches. By employing qualitative research, the researchers analyzed the textual and discoursal properties in terms of features, characters, and structures of argumentation and the speakers’ flow of thinking realized linguistically. This research found that the speeches’ micro and macro components are in mutual supporting functions to accommodate the themes of the discourse. Verbally, each speaker built their image as a figure who concerns solidarity, a leader who is aware of the global crisis, and an activist who promotes Indonesia’s positive global roles. The findings imply the pivotal roles of textual and discoursal strategies to construct the national and personal image of a politician delivering a speech for the global audience. This study is expected to be beneficial for ESP, especially for the teaching of English for Public Relations.

Objetivo: analizar el potencial del atole de plato para ser considerado como un elemento del agroturismo en El Estanco, municipio de Luvianos, Estado de México; a través de la teoría de representaciones sociales. Metodología: el estudio se basa en una aproximación exploratoria de corte cualitativo. A partir de observación participante se pudieron identificar los significados y el simbolismo en torno a la elaboración del atole de plato para su aprovechamiento turístico. Resultados: mediante el uso de la teoría de las representaciones sociales se identifica que el atole de plato es un alimento con valor cultural, histórico y social, situación que lo postula en una etapa previa a su inserción en la oferta turística de destinos rurales que han apostado por el turismo como un camino hacia el desarrollo. Limitaciones: entre las limitaciones del estudio se destaca la dificultad de aterrizar en el plano de la operatividad empírica los postulados de la teoría y, además, del hermetismo cultural del grupo familiar estudiado. Conclusiones: el trabajo concluye que el atole de plato cuenta con potencial latente para su inclusión en la oferta agroturística del lugar; sin embargo, es necesario establecer una oferta integradora con otros recursos de la comunidad.
Cultural Fit of Assessments to Detect Curiosity for Weak Signals Among Employees
Authors: Amaral Thais , Behrens Alfredo
Published: May 2021

To remain competitive, organizations must make sense of antecedent weak signals that might yield information on opportunities or threats. However, perceiving those signals requires psychological capabilities which are not evenly distributed over their workforce. Identifying who might effectively sense weak antecedent signals is the necessary first step in the staff selection and management process. To this effect, Human Resources Management processes at organizations rely on assessments. However, this study suggests that some self-assessments might be too context-sensitive to fit their purpose across cultures. In particular, the CEI-II evaluation applied to a small and convenience sample of Brazilian executives did not satisfy Brazilian respondents’ selection for curiosity.  The authors briefly discuss how the Brazilian context may differ, not least because of a considerably lower generalized trust level, and suggest relying alternatively on projective instruments.

Introdução: A heterotopia pode ser definida como a ocorrência de tecido bem diferenciado em um local anormal, um sinônimo utilizado por alguns autores é “coristoma” (Choristosgregos = separados), o que denota uma massa de tecido histologicamente normal localizado em um local não habitual. Tecidos heterotópicos de vários tipos foram descritos na literatura, tais como mucosa gástrica e mucosa intestinal, comparando com todo o trato gastrointestinal, relatos de mucosa gástrica heterotópica na vesicular biliar são extremamente raros. Objetivo: Divulgar um caso atípico de mucosa gástrica heterotópica em vesicular biliar em paciente do Hospital Escola de Valença, com seu consequente desfecho, através da análise de prontuário.Relato de caso: Mulher de 41 anos atendida no Hospital Escola de Valença apresentando dor recorrente em hipocôndrio direito e região epigástrica,  distensão abdominal, náuseas e icterícia, sendo diagnosticada com heterotopia de mucosa gástrica em vesícula biliar e submetida à colecistectomia videolaparoscópica. Conclusão: O diagnóstico deve sempre ser considerado em pacientes jovens com colecistite alitiásica e em qualquer tipo de alteração morfológica da vesícula, devido à associação existente entre esta alteração e o aumento de risco de câncer.

Introdução: O Sinal da Irmã Maria José foi descrito por Hamilton Bailey em 1949, em homenagem à assistente cirúrgica do Dr. William Mayo. É um nódulo endurecido e de crescimento rápido, fissurado ou ulcerado e com aparecimento na região umbilical por via linfática, hematogênica ou contiguidade. O estômago e cólon no homem e ovários na mulher são os locais primários mais comuns. Objetivo: Apresentar um relato de caso sobre o sinal semiológico de Irmã Maria José e sua relação com neoplasias malignas. Relato de caso: Mulher de 71 anos, encaminhada pela Unidade Básica de Saúde (UBS) para procurar um cirurgião geral, com diagnóstico de “hérnia umbilical provavelmente encarcerada”. Apresentava tumoração ulcerada em cicatriz umbilical. Tomografia abdominal mostrou múltiplas formações expansivas com calcificações grosseiras, de limites mal definidos em cavidade pélvica. Biópsia da lesão mostrou adenocarcinoma com padrão micropapilar erodindo a pele. O diagnóstico definitivo foi de câncer ovariano avançado, sendo optado apenas por tratamento clínico oncológico. Conclusão: O sinal da Irmã Maria José pode ser a primeira manifestação de uma neoplasia e seu reconhecimento é importante por parte do médico, para que se possa iniciar uma investigação diagnóstica e propor um tratamento adequado, muito embora caracterize um estádio avançado da neoplasia.
2. Wild Wild East: The Animal as Oriental
Authors: Atta Pansee
Published: May 2021

Horus, centaurs, werewolves, Batman...every culture has them. Fantastic animal‐human hybrids that serve as totems, symbols of basic human needs and instincts deemed socially unacceptable and projected upon anthropomorphized living animals or imagined liminal beings. This allows humans to define themselves as civilized, restrained, rational ‐ all that is not ‘animal’‐ while allowing them an imaginary, socially sanctioned context in which they can live out their hedonistic desires. Animal biology becomes a construction that allows humans to define themselves in its opposition, in other words, it is Orientalized.  The paradox is that these ‘animalistic’ traits are the closest we come to seeing that which is truly, essentially human. Norms of sexuality and violence may be culturally defined, but there is no culture that lacks a definition. Understanding ‘animal instincts’ becomes an entry point into another way of viewing the world, a means of accessing human experience, and a response to the dialogue on cultural hybridity.

Em março de 2020, a Coronavírus Disease (COVID-19), até então desconhecida e sem tratamento específico, preocupou o mundo, principalmente pela transmissibilidade. A população, em sua grande parte mais leiga, assistia a tudo isso sem saber muito bem o que fazer ou como reagir, e surgiam, a todo momento, orientações que se fizeram necessárias para (con)vivermos como sociedade diante de inúmeros questionamentos. Entendemos que se fazia necessário construir um diálogo com a população em geral, visando a dispor de uma comunicação efetiva sobre o cenário da pandemia. Percebemos que a carência de informação qualificada, as dúvidas e as fake news seriam um obstáculo para as pessoas entenderem a gravidade da situação desencadeada pelo coronavírus. Desta forma, como voluntários, nos unimos em uma Ação de Extensão denominada MINUTO CORONA, que tem como pilar a construção do conhecimento além dos muros da universidade, com o foco na comunicação rápida e eficaz. Nosso objetivo é responder as perguntas e publicar conteúdos científicos. Estes são divididos em categorias, como: máscaras, testes e diagnósticos, sinais e sintomas, contágio, desinfecção e limpeza, medicações, vacinas, fake news, orientações e relatos. Nosso diferencial: responder e interagir com as pessoas. As evidências científicas foram a mola propulsora da equipe, a partir das quais traduzimos o conhecimento para linguagem acessível, disponibilizado nas redes sociais. Nosso alcance ultrapassou as expectativas e contabilizou mais de 123.482 interações com a população. A ação aproximou realidades e promoveu saúde, conectando a universidade à comunidade por meio da tecnologia.
