Authors: Carvalho Fernanda Paul de , Bruhn Fabio Raphael Pascoti , Faria Peter Bitencourt
Published: October 2024

Abstract The objective of this study was to determine the influence of production volume, collection interval and time of year on the composition and quality of refrigerated raw milk in the region of Lavras, MG. This study collected information from milk quality monitoring performed by dairies as required by the Federal Inspection Service (SIF). For this study, the farms were classified by milk production per farm (G): 0-200 L/day, 201-500 L/day, 501-1000 L/day, 1001-2000 L/day, and greater than 2000 L/day. The collection intervals were 24 and 48 hours (C), and seasonality (S) was treated as a function of the months of the year (November 2020 to October 2021). The following milk characteristics parameters were analyzed: fat, protein, lactose, total solids (TS), defatted dry extract (DDE), somatic cell count (SCC), urea nitrogen content (UNC), standard plate count (SPC), fat/protein ratio (F/P) and cryoscopic index. There was a seasonality influence for all the parameters studied except for UNC. The production volume per group influenced UNC, TS and SPC. Differences in UNC, protein, lactose, TS, DDE and SPC were associated with the collection interval. There was an interaction effect between seasonality and production volume (SxG) for the parameters SCC, fat and F/P. The findings of this study revealed that the supplier production volume, collection interval, and time of year contribute to variations in chemical composition and milk quality parameters.

Authors: Almeida Felipe Alves de , Gonçalves Maria Jacirema Ferreira
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT Objective: To identify vulnerability factors associated with unsuccessful tuberculosis treatment outcomes between 2011 and 2021 in Manaus, Amazonas. Method: Ecological study using tuberculosis case notification data from the Notifiable Diseases Information System, from 2011 to 2021, of residents in Manaus. The variables refer to treatment outcomes and patient vulnerability, according to the theoretical model: individual, programmatic and social. The analysis tested the association between vulnerability and tuberculosis treatment non-success, measured by the occurrence of death, loss to follow-up or treatment default. The Odds Ratio estimate with confidence interval was obtained by logistic regression, according to a hierarchical model. Results: The following factors were more likely to lead to unsuccessful tuberculosis treatment: individual vulnerability (age group 20 to 29 years and over 60 years, indigenous race, HIV+, drug use); programmatic vulnerability (not having an HIV test), social vulnerability (special population). Conclusion: Individual vulnerability was more strongly associated with non-success. Intervention is needed to explore the points of greatest individual vulnerability, enabling effective action to prevent unsuccessful tuberculosis treatment.

Published: October 2024

Resumo Neste estudo construímos o Índice de Capital Humano (ICH) para o Brasil, cobrindo o período de 1995 a 2022. Utilizamos os microdados da Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios (PNAD) e da PNAD Contínua, ambas disponibilizadas pelo Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE), e adaptamos para o caso brasileiro a metodologia empregada por diversas organizações internacionais, como o Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). O ICH captura os movimentos estruturais da qualidade da mão de obra brasileira, dada a ampla abrangência temporal dos dados, e sua derivação é compatível com a metodologia usual de decomposição do crescimento econômico. Neste sentido, empregamos o ICH no ajuste do fator trabalho utilizado no cálculo da produtividade total dos fatores (PTF). Os resultados mostram que no período de 1995 a 2022 o ICH apresentou um crescimento anual médio de 2,2%. Além disso, a inclusão do ICH influenciou a dinâmica da PTF, que registrou queda anual média de 0,9% no período analisado.

Dilemmas of Classifying Difference: the Promises and Disruptions of Inclusive Education Across Cultural Contexts
Authors: CABALLEROS Marta Z. , ARTILES Alfredo J. , GAMBOA-ZAPATEL Daniela
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT The call for expanding educational opportunities for all (including the most vulnerable groups) has been both promising and disruptive, particularly as inclusive education policies spread across the globe. Notably, inclusive education embodies a transformative promise for contexts where inequality is ubiquitous. However, different perspectives on the categorization of vulnerable groups are emerging around the globe, which influences the way Inclusive Education is designed and implemented. Thus, in this paper, we reflect on the differences among countries in their approach to implementing Inclusive Education, we discuss the hierarchies of difference that are created, and we set an initial discussion to foster the analysis of categories of difference and their implications for Inclusive Education in future research.

RESUMO O objetivo deste trabalho foi relatar o caso de uma acadêmica com Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA) inserida na metodologia Problem-Based Learning do curso de Medicina. Ela foi diagnosticada com TEA aos 20 anos de idade, manifesta déficit na interação social, comprometimento da linguagem, comportamento repetitivo, padrão motor peculiar, alterações na integração sensorial, alterações qualitativas em funções executivas e crises de ansiedade em situações de exposição social, principalmente no ambiente acadêmico. Ela recebeu alguns auxílios e adaptações fornecidos pela coordenação e docentes da faculdade de Medicina, porém ainda são insuficientes para sua total inclusão na realidade da graduação. As pessoas com TEA, ou outras neurodiversidades, possuem dificuldades peculiares; assim, cabe à instituição e ao pessoal envolvido com os processos de ensino-aprendizagem assegurar o acesso, a permanência e a necessidade de implementar medidas que proporcionem ao estudante todo o suporte educacional que faz parte do seu direito. É importante que haja adequação às condições desses estudantes, bem como a capacitação do corpo docente para que seja capaz de lidar com essas pessoas, visando a sua verdadeira inclusão no meio acadêmico e seu aperfeiçoamento para incluí-los no mercado de trabalho.

Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT In this paper, we present a portrait of inclusive education policies in Special Education. We analyze the scientific production, education policies and the current educational reality, considering the 16 years of the National Special Education Policy from the Perspective of Inclusive Education. In methodological terms, we analyzed federal documents and the School Census produced by the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (INEP), as well as the scientific production of the Revista Brasileira de Educação Especial (RBEE). The findings were compared with qualitative data produced in education networks that are part of the Permanent Special Education Forum from the perspective of Inclusive Education in Baixada e Sul Fluminense, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The results indicate a set of challenges in guaranteeing Inclusive Education within the scope of Special Education: setbacks in offering educational support, weaknesses in intersectoral policies/programs, educational inequity and theoretical and practical problems in the conception of Inclusive Education in Special Education.

Published: October 2024

Abstract Parental educational practices act on the behavioral repertoire of children. This study aimed to verify the effects of the adapted Promote-Parents program on the behavioral repertoire of children and adolescents diagnosed with ADHD and their primary caregivers. Seven schoolchildren and their caregivers participated in the study, and they were evaluated before and after the intervention using the Roteiro de Entrevista de Habilidades Sociais Educativas Parentais (RE-HSE-P, Parental Educational Social Skills Interview Script), the Conners Scale, and the Social Skills Rating System (SSRS-BR). There was an increase in skillful behaviors, a reduction in behavior problems and ADHD symptomatology among the children/adolescents, a decrease in negative educational practices, and an increase in educational social skills among the caregivers. It was concluded that the program generated positive effects, in addition to being of low cost.
Motor gesture: a gap between motor skills and movement assessment
Authors: Abensur Márcio Rocha , Santos Ana Sofia Pedrosa Gomes dos
Published: October 2024

Abstract A developmental disorder can be reflected in the subject’s motricity, which justifies the qualitative observation of movement aimed at screening and even diagnosing disabilities and developmental disorders. However, adolescents with low school performance show unusual motor manifestations not observed in the general population and that do not necessarily reveal themselves in motor or functional skills, but in the quality and proportion of the movement in relation to the act. Based on the scarce literature on this phenomenon, this article aims to address the construct that we call motor gesture, contributing to a reflection in the field of Physical Education, aiming to improve its technical, scientific and pedagogical processes for the inclusion of the studied population.

Authors: Campos Gracielie da Silva , Brust-Renck Priscila Goergen , Gonçalves Tonantzin Ribeiro
Published: October 2024

Abstract Objective Glycemic control is essential for reducing the risks of long-term complications in individuals living with type 1 diabetes mellitus. The study aimed to evaluate the relationship between glycemic control and demographic, economic, and clinical characteristics, and self-care behaviors for diabetes. Method A total of 107 people living with diabetes participated in the study. The participants completed an online self-report questionnaire containing clinical indicators and health care measures. Results The results showed that most participants did not have adequate glycemic control (based on glycated hemoglobin evaluation), especially due to difficulties in monitoring the disease and a lack of daily testing, as well as an increase in tobacco use. Low income, high body mass index, and low social class also predicted inadequate glycemic control. Conclusion It is recommended that health strategies sensitive to social inequalities and individual difficulties related to glycemic control be implemented to promote health.
Systematic review: conceptions and strategies for measuring subjective poverty
Authors: Barbosa Vilkiane Natercia Malherme , Ximenes Verônica Morais
Published: October 2024

Abstract Objective The study analyzes the theoretical and practical perspectives that have been developed concerning the concepts and measurement strategies of subjective poverty. Method Thus, a systematic review was conducted, considering a temporal scope of ten years (2011-2021), on peer-reviewed articles in English, Portuguese, and Spanish. Following the analysis, the corpus consisted of 17 articles. Results It was identified that the concept of subjective poverty is affected by sociodemographic and analytical characteristics. This has an impact on different approaches, which can be more or less inclusive. The less inclusive ones are defined by exclusively monetary perspectives, while others consider the macrostructural issues of the analyzed realities: the effects of other socioeconomic markers and the psychosocial implications of poverty. Conclusion Thus, subjective poverty points out that, in the background of the subjects’ discourse, there are psychosocial intersections that impact their ways of life.
Vygotsky’s concept of emotion: the indissociability of affective and cognitive aspects in human development
Authors: Faria Paula Maria Ferreira de , Camargo Denise de
Published: October 2024

Abstract Objective This article presents a diachronic review of Lev Vygotsky’s concept of emotion and its significance in understanding human development. Method The article has a theoretical methodology and emphasizes the importance of situating the analysis of emotions within the context of human work and the meanings attributed to it. Results Vygotsky’s innovative approach transcends the traditional dichotomy between emotion and cognition, emphasizing the integrated nature of human experience. His concept of higher psychological functions highlights the cultural-historical context in which these functions are developed, forming the basis for projecting collective social interactions into individual psychological processes. The author argues that emotions are fundamental to personality development and self-regulation, shaped by cultural influences. Conclusion While Vygotsky did not provide precise definitions of emotion and feeling, his work underscores their dynamic and transformative nature. Emotions, as dynamic elements of personality, contribute to the construction of the individual’s psychological life and influence social interactions.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Social media enhanced access to information, making it easier to share dental treatments. Objective: This study aimed to conduct a descriptive analysis of the clinical cases published on the Align® Global Gallery platform. Material and Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study of 1,582 cases was conducted, data extracted referred to the following basic information: case number; patient’s age; reported gender; Invisalign® package modality; treatment time; aligner exchange protocol; total number of aligners per arch; type of retainers, and inclusion of initial and final panoramic and cephalometric radiographs. Results: The majority were young (mean age 24.6 years, SD = 11.6), female patients (69.1%) with Class I malocclusion (39.4%) and crowding (77.9%). Comprehensive treatment was common (66.5%), with an average treatment time of 18 months (SD = 8.56; 95% CI = 17.6-18.5), with the most frequently reported aligner exchange protocol being 7 days (49.5%), with an average of 50.6 aligners in the upper arch (SD = 26.9; 95% CI = 49.2-51.9), and 48.7 in the lower arch (SD = 26.1; 95% CI = 47.4-50.0). Arch expansion (66.9%) and interproximal reduction (59.7%) were common approaches, while extractions were rare (4.3%). In most cases, initial lateral cephalometric (80.4%) and panoramic (93.3%) radiographs were presented. However, the final radiograph count dropped, with lateral cephalometric at 69.2%, and panoramic at 82.2% of cases. Conclusion: Cases in the Align®Global Gallery mostly feature Class I patients with crowded teeth, treated with expansion and interproximal reduction. The absence of standardized information and post-treatment data restricts the applicability of these findings to broader Invisalign® treatment trends.
Systemic Barriers and Unfairness: Access to Justice in Zimbabwe and Beyond
Authors: Maraire Wesley
Published: October 2024

Abstract Citizens in plural legal and cultural former colonies like Zimbabwe do not have effective access to justice. This is because the formal justice system is marred with obstacles that either prevent people from entering and navigating the system or impede them from obtaining outcomes that are aligned with their normative conceptions of justice. Post-independence justice reform efforts have failed because they attempt to resolve obstacles in isolation of each other, and the obstacles are almost never analysed as inherent within the formal justice system itself, i.e., as systemic problems. That every justice system has risks for the intended users is uncontroverted, and this article specifically focuses on systemic obstacles to access to justice. I demonstrate inherent and unacceptable risk of unfairness in the formal justice system by discussing four examples from the demand and supply sides. A multi-pronged research approach, involving a comprehensive literature review, media reports and my experience and observations within the Zimbabwean justice system are used. Furthermore, case law examples are also utilised, but going beyond erroneous individual cases, and unpacking the under-theorised yet broader social consequences of the cases on citizens and the formal justice system.

Published: October 2024

Resumo Introdução A terapia ocupacional chegou ao Brasil sob a lógica da reabilitação e distanciada da realidade brasileira. Por isso, terapeutas ocupacionais lançaram-se à aventura de pensar a profissão e seus aspectos teórico-práticos a partir de seus contextos. Jô Benetton figura entre essas profissionais. Formada em 1970, iniciou um projeto de investigação que culminou na construção do Método Terapia Ocupacional Dinâmica – MTOD. Revisões recentes da literatura que se debruçam sobre a temática das construções epistemológicas, ao se utilizarem de mecanismos de indexação de revistas, apenas citam a obra da autora, sem explicitar suas contribuições ao campo e seu processo de construção de conhecimento. Objetivo Elucidar aspectos do processo de construção do MTOD, de modo a compreender como foi ocorrendo a produção do saber a partir das situações práticas colocadas como objeto de estudo, que resultou na proposição de um referencial teórico-metodológico específico da e na terapia ocupacional brasileira. Método Pesquisa qualitativa, com dados provenientes de duas entrevistas com Jô Benetton e uma com Sonia Ferrari, analisadas tematicamente. Resultados Foram identificados três temas principais que expressam como o MTOD foi sendo construído à luz de uma epistemologia pragmatista: 1) Inquietações, buscas e experimentações; 2) Invenções; 3) Emergência de um modo de pensar-fazer na prática. Conclusão A construção do MTOD ocorreu de modo não-dicotômico entre produção de conhecimento e de cuidado, permitindo instaurar novas relações entre teoria e prática.

Resumo O objetivo deste estudo é analisar a influência do modo de operação e de variáveis demográficas e antropométricas na produtividade autoavaliada de usuários de edificações de escritório com sistema de ventilação híbrido e central, em Florianópolis - SC. Os dados demográficos e antropométricos foram coletados por meio de questionários eletrônicos. A influência do modo de operação na produtividade foi analisada por meio de histogramas. Um modelo preditivo foi desenvolvido por meio de regressões lineares e quadráticas para identificar os parâmetros ambientais e demográficos/antropométricos que exercem influência na produtividade. Os resultados mostraram que não houve distinção da influência exercida por edificações híbridas ou com sistema de ar-condicionado central na percepção da produtividade. Apesar de o modelo preditivo não ter apresentado boa capacidade de explicar o desempenho dos usuários, evidenciou correlações estatísticas entre produtividade e temperatura operativa, gênero e idade. Concluiu-se que a percepção de produtividade dos usuários de escritórios é afetada pela configuração dos ambientes no clima subtropical úmido de Florianópolis.
Surface urban heat island and geospatial indicators: comparative decadal assessment through remote sensing
Authors: Liguori Iara Nogueira , Monteiro Leonardo Marques
Published: October 2024

Abstract Surface Urban Heat Islands (SUHI) are formed through processes that include decreasing vegetation and increasing materials that are more conductive to heat. To investigate this phenomenon, the objective of this work is to comparatively verify the surface temperature and geospatial indicators to analyze environmental variation in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. The study method is remote sensing, with data from the Landsat 8 satellite over a ten-year timeframe. The variables include land cover, the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), the Normalized Difference Built-up Index (NDBI), and land surface temperature (LST), thereby obtaining the Urban Thermal Field Variation Index (UTFVI) and estimating SUHI formation. The results allowed for the presentation of a progression of variables, highlighting the recurrent formation of SUHI in the central and eastern regions of the city of São Paulo, Brazil. Conversely, the southern and extreme northern districts exhibited the best NDVI indices and low LST values.

Published: October 2024

Abstract This paper aimed to analyze the effectiveness of the CCWorldWeatherGen tool, focusing on climate change in São Paulo, São Paulo State, Brazil. For this, dry-bulb temperature, relative humidity, global solar radiation, and wind speed data from the test reference year weather file (1954) and the CCWorldWeatherGen file for the 2020 period (representing the 2011-2040 period) were compared with observational data collected between 2011 and 2023 by the Meteorological Station of the Institute of Astronomy, Geophysics, and Atmospheric Sciences of the University of São Paulo. The accuracy of variables predicted using weather files was evaluated using five statistical measures of error. Annual relative root mean square error (RRMSE) values for dry-bulb temperature, relative humidity, global solar radiation, and wind speed in the morphed weather file were 17.04% (good), 17.95% (good), 31.57% (poor), and 224.44% (poor), respectively. It is concluded that CCWorldWeatherGen is suitable for generating future weather files with complete information, mainly for its practicality. However, this approach requires caution, as sequences depend on the consistency of the weather file used as a basis.
Chemical composition of cool coatings and the influence on solar reflectance and thermal emittance
Authors: Andrade Marcela Macedo de , Dornelles Kelen Almeida
Published: October 2024

Abstract Cool materials have higher values of solar reflectance and lower values of thermal emittance, although still high when compared to conventional coatings, thus, their surfaces are less heated. In this regard, the goal was to identify the chemical elements present on cool surfaces that influence solar reflectance and thermal emittance. To this end, the spectral reflectance and the thermal emittance were measured with methods and equipment standardized by the Cool Roof Rating Council (CRRC) of 23 elastomeric cool coatings commercialized in the Brazilian market, and the chemical composition of the surfaces with EDS (Energy-dispersive X-ray detector) coupled to the field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) was analyzed. The presence of the metallic chemical element (titanium) in greater quantities on the surfaces was not decisive for lower thermal emittance values. The surfaces of materials with lower carbon and higher oxygen content have higher near infrared and solar reflectance. Therefore, surfaces with a matte finish have higher solar reflectance values because of the higher ratio of pigments in relation to resin than those with a glossy finish, which are mistakenly associated with higher reflectance due to its high surface gloss.

Abstract This study investigated the prevalence of gastrointestinal (GI) parasites in ruminants slaughtered at the abattoir in district Narowal, Punjab, Pakistan. The overall prevalence of parasitic infection was determined to be 72.92% based on faecal examination. Among the ruminant species, goats exhibited a significantly higher (P < 0.05) prevalence of parasitic infection (78.63%) compared to cattle, buffalo, and sheep. Additionally, female ruminants showed a significantly higher (P<0.05) prevalence of infection (85.62%) compared to males (65.13%). The intestines (both small and large) of small and large ruminants were found to be significantly more affected, with a prevalence of 39.58% of parasitic infection compared to other examined organs. A total of ten parasitic genera were identified in ruminants, including hydatid cysts. Ruminants with a high burden of parasites (45.74%) significantly outnumbered those with light (23.40%) and moderate (30.85%) burdens. Economically, the estimated annual losses in Pakistan due to organ condemnation with GI parasites were substantial, amounting to Pak. Rs. 405.09/- million (USD = 1,428,760). These findings underscore the significance of GI parasite infections as a major animal health concern and a cause of significant economic losses in the research area.

Published: October 2024

The article is dedicated to the exploration of the mythical and epic images in the epic “Seytek,” which is the final chapter of the “Manas” trilogy. This epic is the most extensive and artistically refined piece of folk epic heritage. The Kyrgyz people can rightfully be proud of the richness and diversity of their oral poetic traditions. The epic “Seytek” is composed of a collection of mythological and epic images, including characters and narratives from various folklore traditions, such as those of the Scandinavians, Central European peoples, and others spanning from the west to the east and from the north to the south. It incorporates elements starting from ancient Greek folklore and extending across the literature of various cultures, containing valuable information about mythical and epic figures. The scientific article specifically notes that the Kyrgyz people are rich in heroic epics. The role of mythology in the development of world literature is invaluable. It is clear that the mysteries of natural phenomena and various amazing forces invented by people are best described in epic works. It is worth especially noting that the epics introduce the reader to the concept of the ideal, the way of life of the ancestors and create the opportunity to appreciate them.
LEXICO-SEMANTIC FEATURES OF WORDS RELATED TO SOME ANCIENT MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS IN THE KYRGYZ LANGUAGE
Authors:   Kyrgyz State University of Culture and Arts named after B. Beishenalieva, Chekeeva Begaim
Published: October 2024

The article presents the linguistic function of words Kyrgyz language. The lexical- semantic meanings of musical instruments, which appeared depending on the phenomena in the environment and the objects used, were interpreted. Musical instruments were used both as toys and as objects with religious beliefs. It was revealed that most of the names are formed from verbs, which were formed from imitative words. It is confirmed that the origin of the names is related to the material from which it is made and the function it performs.

DECENTRALIZATION OF MUNICIPAL FINANCES AS A WAY TO INCREASE THE SUSTAINABILITY OF MUNICIPALITIES
Authors:   Academy of Public Administration under the President of the Kyrgyz Republic, Karashev Aaly
Published: October 2024

Financial independence is one of the "pillars" on which local self–government rests. Without adequate funding, it is impossible to fully resolve issues of local importance. In Kyrgyzstan, the issue of financial decentralization has always been in the spotlight, but the view on it has constantly changed. Until the 2000s, the number of local taxes and fees in the arsenal of local government included sixteen items, then this number was reduced to eight. The Tax Code in its modern version contains only one type of local tax – on property (movable and immovable). Although funds from some republican taxes go to local budgets. In 2006, a two-tier budgeting system was introduced with the abolition of the budgets of regions and districts, and standards for the formation of local budgets began to be calculated according to the Government formula. The author of the article has his own opinion, believing that it is necessary to increase the number of local taxes and fees, thereby stimulating interest in their collection, and not depend on the formula and transfers. At least half of the local budget and more should be formed at the expense of local taxes.

The article, based on newly opened archival sources, highlights the first visit of the official Kyrgyz delegation to America. During early 1990s, with the USSR collapse the world became unipolar, with the United States beginning to play a significant geopolitical role. The acquisition of independence and sovereignty set Kyrgyzstan in search of its own path of development; the country faced the challenge of joining the world community. The visit of the state delegation of Kyrgyzstan to the USA was of great historical and political significance for the development of the country. High-level meetings and promises to move the country along the path of democracy and market relations played an important role in American support to the young republic. Kyrgyzstan's desire to follow a democratic course was an important message behind the republic's entry into the UN and other international organizations. Diplomatic relations also developed progressively with the opening of a number of embassies in Bishkek and embassies of Kyrgyzstan abroad. foreign policy doctrine, concept.

A háború antropológiája: primitív hadviselés, gerilla hadviselés és a szövetséges összhaderőnemi műveletek sikere
Authors: Jobbágy Zoltán
Published: October 2024

Az ezredforduló konfliktusai és háborúi, a NATO összhaderőnemi műveletei egyértelműen bebizonyították, hogy kizárólag katonai erő alkalmazásával és fegyverrel nem lehet tartós eredményt elérni. Az antropológia, mint tudomány egyértelműsíti, hogy háborúk mindig egy adott közösségben, társadalmi folyamatokként zajlanak, amit az egyének, a különböző kis- és nagyközösségek befolyásolnak. Tekintettel az elmúlt 200 év aszimmetrikus konfliktusai eredményeinek összehasonlítása során nyilvánvalóvá vált veszélyes tendenciára, a gyengébb fél tevékenységét egyre inkább átható és egyre könyörtelenebbé váló vallásosságra, a globalizált világban a saját helyét kereső NATO-t képező fejlett országok működési elveinek folyamatos elerőtlenedésére, a technológiai fölény jelentette átmeneti és gyorsan elkopó előny nyilvánvalóvá válására, a háború és a társadalmi folyamatok közötti összefüggés antropológiai alapú vizsgálata kiemelt fontosságú.

Microplastic particles in the size range 0.15 to 5.00 mm were quantified and characterised in the gastrointestinal tracts of three wild freshwater fish (n = 141) from the Ob and Yenisei rivers, including common ruffe (Gymnocephalus cernua L.), Siberian dace (Leuciscus baicalensis Dybowski) and European perch (Perca fluviatilis L.). Microplastics were found in the gastrointestinal tract of 62% of the fish examined, ranging from 18.5% in the Yenisei perch sample to 92.6% in the Ob ruffe sample. The vast majority of microplastics in all fish species were fibres (up to 99.7% of all particles detected in perch), followed by irregularly shaped fragments (up to 22.7% in ruffe), with no preference between the three species. Spheres and films were found exclusively in dace and ruffe, with proportions of 3.7% and 1.2% respectively. Particles consisted of polyethylene terephthalate, polypropylene, polyamide and other synthetic polymers with a significant proportion of highly degraded polymers. The mean MP content in fish GITs ranged from 0.44 ± 0.25 items per individual in Yenisei perch to 3.81 ± 0.55 items per individual in Ob ruffe. Particle burdens in fish were significantly higher in the Ob than in the Yenisei (p < 0.05), which may reflect the common level of plastic contamination in these two rivers. MP ingestion varied in species with different feeding habits as ruffe (benthivorous) > dace (omnivorous) > perch (hunter) in both rivers (p < 0.01). This study was the first to quantify MP consumption by freshwater fish of different species in the Ob and Yenisei rivers and to identify patterns associated with different feeding habits.
