O cinema como dispositivo de aprendizagem da língua brasileira de sinais e da cultura surda
Authors: Bataglin Raugust Mayara , Ávila Pereira Karina
Published: August 2024

O presente artigo está inserido no campo das discussões contemporâneas sobre o Ensino da Língua Brasileira de sinais a Libras como segunda língua para ouvintes. O texto apresenta um Projeto de Ensino intitulado CINELIBRAS, o qual foi desenvolvido entre acadêmicos das mais diversas licenciaturas da Universidade Federal de Pelotas. O Objetivo principal foi desenvolver, aprofundar e incentivar através do cinema temas referentes às línguas de sinais e à cultura surda nos acadêmicos que serão futuros professores. Dessa forma, foram feitas sessões de cinema, quinzenais com a exposição de filmes com temática relacionada às línguas de sinais e cultura surda e, após a exposição do mesmo houve um determinado tempo para discussões e para que os alunos se manifestassem em relação ao que tinham assistido, oportunizando-se um momento de troca de experiências. A avaliação do projeto foi feita a partir de narrativas que os acadêmicos eram solicitados a escrever após essas discussões. Nessas narrativas percebeu-se o quanto a temática da cultura surda e da Libras ainda são desconhecidas por parte dos acadêmicos. Um dado importante foi constatar que após a exibição dos filmes e do momento da discussão os alunos tiveram a oportunidade de rever conceitos já engessados sobre os sujeitos surdos, usuários da Libras e essa reflexão possibilitou mudanças conceituais para esses futuros professores.
Multiletramentos no ensino de língua inglesa em um contexto de vulnerabilidade social

Published: August 2024

A constante incorporação das tecnologias e mídias digitais ao dia a dia da comunicação humana provoca impactos no aprendizado dos alunos, uma vez que diversas habilidades são estimuladas ao se lidar com os aparelhos tecnológicos. A utilização de smartphones por jovens de todas as classes sociais indica a importância de tal aparelho na atualidade. Tendo em vista esta tendência, faz se necessário pensar em iniciativas que tentem aliar os multiletramentos que fazem parte da vida dos alunos fora da escola às práticas vivenciadas em sala de aula. O objetivo desse estudo é o de investigar a relação entre os multiletramentos e uma sequência didática (SD) (DOLZ; SCHNEUWLY, 2004) desenvolvida em um contexto de vulnerabilidade social. Os dados são provenientes da análise documental da SD elaborada. A SD foi desenvolvida em torno do gênero canção-rap e da mídia blog, e procurou, além de mobilizar as capacidades de linguagem dos alunos em língua inglesa, estimular o desenvolvimento de consciência crítica e participação social (BRAGA, 2010). As atividades da SD foram nomeadas e classificadas de acordo com as quatro categorias da pedagogia dos multiletramentos (GRUPO DE NOVAS LONDRES, 2000): Prática Situada, Instrução Explícita, Posicionamento Crítico e Prática Transformada. A análise indicou que a SD apresentou mais atividades de Posicionamento Crítico em relação às demais, por conta do foco adotado pela SD. As conclusões apontam para um possível engajamento motivado pela utilização de multiletramentos, uma vez que tais elementos não eram frequentemente incorporados às aulas de língua inglesa vivenciadas pelos alunos em contexto formal.
Oposições entre segmentos

Os estudos sobre a aquisição de diferentes línguas, cujo foco majoritário está no inventário consonantal, são unânimes na constatação da realidade gradativa do processo, definindo-se o ordenamento de sua emergência particularmente nas noções de marcação e de robustez dos traços que constituem a estrutura interna dos segmentos (CLEMENTS, 2009; LAZZAROTTO-VOLCÃO, 2009). O presente trabalho vem aliar-se aos ainda restritos estudos sobre a aquisição de sistemas vocálicos, chamando a noção de marcação e introduzindo o uso da ideia de robustez, proposta por Clements para dar conta dos contrastes nos sistemas consonantais, para o âmbito dos inventários vocálicos. Constatando a emergência tardia das vogais médias em crianças falantes nativas do português brasileiro (PB) (RANGEL, 2002; MATZENAUER & MIRANDA, 2007; VOGELEY, 2011), este trabalho discute o comportamento dos traços que compõem sua estrutura e que opõem essas vogais no sistema, estabelecendo uma escala de robustez de contrastes. A robustez dos traços que implicam oposição entre as vogais médias entre si e com os outros segmentos vocálicos que integram os sistemas é discutida não apenas com o suporte de dados da aquisição da fonologia por crianças falantes de PB, mas também com a observação de inventários de vogais em diferentes tipologias de línguas. A análise das oposições que envolvem as vogais médias em sistemas linguísticos leva em consideração as lacunas que tais sistemas apresentam. O tratamento dado aos traços, no presente estudo, tem o fundamento teórico em Clements (2009), em Dresher (2009) e em Calabrese (2005).

Epigenetic regulation of thyroid hormone action in human metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis
Authors: Naujack Alison-Michelle , Krause Christin , Britsemmer Jan H , Taege Natalie , Mittag Jens , Kirchner Henriette
Published: August 2024

Objective

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is characterized by inflammation, fibrosis, and accumulation of fatty acids in the liver. MASH disease progression has been associated with reduced thyroid hormone (TH) signaling in the liver, including reduced expression of deiodinase type I (DIO1) and TH receptor beta (THRB). However, the underlying mechanisms mediating these effects remain elusive. Here, we hypothesized that epigenetic mechanisms may be involved in modulating hepatic TH action.

Methods

Liver samples from patients with and without MASH were analyzed by qRT-PCR and correlated with clinical parameters. Luciferase reporter assays and overexpression of miRNA in HepG2 cells were used to validate the functional binding of miRNA to predicted targets. DNA methylation was analyzed by bisulfite pyrosequencing.

Results

miR-34a-5p was upregulated in MASH patients and correlated positively with the clinical parameters of MASH. Using in silico and in vitro analysis, we demonstrate that miR-34a-5p is capable of targeting several modulators of local hepatic TH action, as evidenced by the functional binding of miR-34a-5p to the seed sequence in the THRB and DIO1 genes. Consequently, overexpression of miR-34a-5p in HepG2 cells reduced the expression of THRA, THRB, DIO1, and SLC10A1, thus potentially mediating an acquired hepatic resistance to TH in MASH. As an additional regulatory mechanism, DNA methylation of THRB intron 1 was increased in MASH and negatively correlated with THRB expression.

Conclusion

miR-34a-5p constitutes a possible epigenetic master regulator of hepatic TH action, which together with THRB-specific DNA methylation could explain a possible developing TH resistance in the liver during MASH progression on the molecular level.
A scoping review regarding reproductive capacity modulation based on alpha-ketoglutarate supplementation

In brief

Alpha-ketoglutarate is a common metabolite in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and is central in modulating the reproductive potential in animal models. The present scoping review systematically covers the spectrum of a wide range of evidence from different viewpoints, focusing on the underlying processes and mechanisms of the developmental framework, aiming to fill the gaps within the existing literature.

Alpha-ketoglutarate is an important intermediate molecule in the tricarboxylic acid cycle with a prominent role in distinct biological processes such as cellular energy metabolism, epigenetic regulation, and signaling pathways. We conducted a registered scoping review (OSF: osf.io/b8nyt) to explore the impact of exogenous supplementation on reproductive capabilities. Our strategy included evaluating the main research literature from different databases like PubMed-MEDLINE, Web of ScienceTM, Scopus, and Excerpta Medica dataBASE using a specific systematic layout to encompass all investigations based on experimental models and critically compare the results. Twenty-one studies were included in the main body of this manuscript, which revealed that exogenous supplementation induced dose- and sex-dependent modifications. This metabolite modulates the expression of pluripotency genes, thus controlling stem cells’ self-renewal, differentiation, and reprogramming dynamics, while also alleviating structural transformations induced by exposure to heavy metals and other inhibitors. This significantly demonstrated a direct influence of alpha-ketoglutarate in mitigating oxidative stress and prolonging the lifespan, consequently supporting metabolic and endocrine adjustments. It influences oocyte quality and quantity, delays reproductive aging, and establishes an optimal competence framework for development with minimal risk of failure. Therefore, alpha-ketoglutarate is linked to improving reproductive performance, but further studies are needed due to a lack of studies on humans.
Sport and Art
Authors: Demirel İnal Elif Arzen , İnal Ramazan
Published: August 2024

Sports and art are two combined phenomena, both performance-based, serving society culture and humanity, increasing in popularity throughout history and with a very high rate of involvement.
The perfectionist quest, which is active in both fields, is represented especially by professionals with different forms and concepts such as movement, harmony, aesthetics and synchronism. The strong relationship between sports and art has become more remarkable in posters, sculptures, designs, paintings and media applications carried out in the name of sports and art, and in organizations such as competitions or competitions. Sports and art have always been hand in hand and complemented each other, but the unity of art and sports has always been a topic of discussion that remains current. While some argue that sports are literally an art, there are also those who claim the opposite and even argue that they are independent concepts. At this point, the main issue we advocate is the relationship between sports and art, which share a common denominator, rather than whether art is a sport or whether sports is an art.
In our article, the harmony of sports and art, their interaction with each other and their contributions to humanity are discussed as a compilation study. The necessary literature review was conducted for the research and the findings were discussed together with similar publications and research. As a result, it has been seen that performing in sports and arts contributes to human development in physiological, psycho-social and physical contexts and exhibits a harmonious integrity.

Introduction. Weak grip strength is a well-known associated factor with disability and physical performance, but this association is controversial in older adults aged 80 years or more. Objective. To determine the association between prehensile strength and functional dependence and physical performance among adults older than 80 years. Methods. This research was an analytical, cross-sectional study, conducted in 147 older adults aged 80 years or more, from Naval Peruvian Service. We included assessments about muscle strength, physical performance, disability, anthropometric variables, and nutritional assessment. Results. We found a significant association between weak grip strength and dependence for basic activities of daily living (aOR: 2.81, 95% CI: 1.32 to 10.11), as well as altered physical performance (aOR: 4.32, 95% CI: 1.97 to 9.59), these associations were independent of age, number of comorbidities, geriatric syndromes, hemoglobin, ferritin, glucose, total cholesterol, lymphocytes, vitamin B12, triglycerides, serum albumin, MMSE score, calf circumference, brachial circumference, BMI, level of education, marital status, sex, and waist/hip ratio. Conclusions. In persons older than 80 years, having weak grip strength was associated with weak muscle strength and poor physical performance. Our results could be useful for the inclusion of these measures within care protocols for elderly and high comorbidity populations. With this, it seeks to improve the integrity and care of geriatric patients.

Sr. Editor,
Recientemente hemos leído con gran interés el artículo titulado “Seroprevalencia de la infección por el virus SARS-CoV-2 en estudiantes de pregrado de ciencias de la salud de una universidad pública” de Lucy López Reyes y col. donde mencionan la necesidad de implementar medidas de bioseguridad, educación, prevención y control antes del retorno a la presencialidad, para así proteger a la población de estudiantes, utilizando como parámetros de selección: detección de anticuerpo con prueba rápida (Kit Cellex Qsars-CoV-2 IgG/IgM Rapid Test) y test inmunoensayo cromatográfico de flujo lateral, el cual, según el resultado de la prueba serológica de anticuerpos contra el SARS-CoV-2, 67,1% de los que dieron positivo no tenían diagnóstico  de COVID-19, 93,9% dieron positivo pero no tuvieron sintomas, y finalmente 40,2% no tuvieron contacto con algún sospechoso de COVID-19 pero salieron positivos (1). Sin embargo, los autores no consideraron realizar pruebas de PCR de rutina en los estudiantes; así, evidenciaron que el 34,58% de los estudiantes de medicina tuvieron resultado positivo, siendo la población con la más alta seropositividad. Otro estudio realizado en estudiantes de medicina de los tres primeros años, quienes asistieron a clases presenciales, a las cuales se les realizó un seguimiento con PCR, evidenció que solo un 6% presentó seropositividad al inicio de la presencialidad. Las pruebas rápidas son complementarias para descarte, pero no sustituyen la detección del material genético viral por RT-PCR (2).

Introduction. Metabolic activity determines the phenotype of macrophages, which can be oriented towards activation of defense mechanisms or tissue repair (phenotypic plasticity). Objectives. To evaluate the behavior of the main enzymes involved in the metabolic pathways of energy production in macrophages exposed to two tumor environments. Methods. In vitro experimental study that consisted of measuring the enzymatic activity of hexokinase (HQN), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6P) by spectrophotometric absorbance in macrophages exposed to lung cancer and hepatocarcinoma cells. We compared the medians of enzyme activity between the isolated cell lines and their co-cultures (Kruskal-Wallis (H) test) and the medians of enzyme activity between each co-culture (Mann-Whitney U test). Results. The enzymatic activity of LDH was significantly higher in macrophages exposed to the hepatocellular carcinoma line, at 0 (H = 5,96, p = 0,03), 2 (H = 6,49, p = 0,01) and 6 hours (H = 7,20, p = 0,004). On the contrary, the enzymatic activity of IDH and HQN in cocultures was significantly lower compared to monocultures. The G6P had lower activity after 2 hours in macrophage monocultures compared to cocultures in the hepatocellular carcinoma line. The enzymatic activity of LDH, IDH, G6P and HQN in macrophages exposed to lung cancer cells was lower compared to macrophages and tumor cells in monoculture. Conclusion: The interaction between macrophages and tumor cells produces changes in the ways glucose is used.

The development of micrography
Authors: Urbonas Viktoras
Published: August 2024

The history of micrography is divided into periods. The first period marks the nascence and initial results, spanning the years 1839-1930.
The second period can be characterized as the archival period of micrography use. The main function of microforms during this time was the collection and preservation of various materials for use according to the needs of readers. The most primitive technical devices were used at that time.
The 1970s are characterized by the active use of micrography. Computers and other modern technologies were widely used during this period. Microfiches began to surpass other microforms. Experiments with video and optical discs were carried out. Active competition among information carriers developed at that time.
Microforms became an integral part of library work.
Main trends of researches in history of informatics

Published: August 2024

Analysis of the abstract journal Informatics showed that the heading "History of Informatics and Scientific Information Activities" was established in 1966 and, except for its interruption in 1970-1976, has continued to this day. Under this heading, 96 abstracts of publications devoted to the history of informatics and librarianship have been published. The investigation of subjects revealed that the main trends in the history of informatics research are as follows: problems of its origin; history of the organization of scientific information activities; genesis of its main terms and categories; and analysis and appreciation of the contributions of some scientists to informatics.
The article discusses the main conceptions about the origin of informatics, provides a review of publications related to the history of scientific information activities in our country, and surveys appraisals of scientists and their contributions to the development of informatics.
Looking for Carroll Particles in the Two-Time Spacetime
Authors: Kamenshchik A. , Muscolino F.
Published: August 2024

We make an attempt to describe Carroll particles with a non-vanishing value of energy (i.e., the Carroll particles which always stay in rest) in the framework of two-time physics, developed in the series of papers by I. Bars and his co-authors. In the spacetime with one additional time dimension and one additional space dimension, where one can localize the symmetry which exists between generalized coordinates and their conjugate momenta. Such a localization implies the introduction of the gauge fields, which, in turn, implies the appearance of some first-class constraints. Choosing different gauge-fixing conditions and solving the constraints, we obtain different time parameters, Hamiltonians, and, generally, physical systems in the standard one-time spacetime. We find a set of gauge fixing conditions which gives the description of a Carroll particle in the one-time world. We construct the quantum theory of such a particle using an unexpected correspondence between our parametrization and that obtained by Bars for the hydrogen atom in 1999.
Drivers of Inpatient Subspecialty Consultation Among Pediatric Hospitalists: A Qualitative Study
Authors: Kern-Goldberger Andrew S. , Bracy Danny , Szymczak Julia E. , Gonzalez Denise , Rothberg Michael B. , Gerber Jeffrey S. , Bonafide Christopher P.
Published: August 2024

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE

Inpatient subspecialty consultation is often medically necessary but in some cases may represent overuse. While pediatric consultation patterns have been described using observational data, qualitative methods may generate knowledge about contextual determinants of consultation behavior. Our objective was to understand how pediatric hospitalists make decisions about subspecialty consultation.

METHODS

This qualitative study took place at a large academic children’s hospital as part of an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design (QUAN → qual). We conducted semistructured interviews with a purposive sample of previously identified high-consulting (top quartile) and low-consulting (bottom quartile) pediatric hospitalists. Interviews were conducted virtually, and audio recordings were transcribed. Two analysts coded transcripts using an integrated approach and established high interrater reliability (κ > 0.75). We organized findings using the Social Ecological Model.

RESULTS

Participants (n = 12) included high-(n = 6) and low-(n = 6) consulting hospitalists. Our respondents identified considerations including patient characteristics, confidence in their own competence and that of their team, and perceived helpfulness of consultants. Participants viewed consultation requests as being strongly influenced by a desire to maintain relationships with families. Specific to this context, the hospital’s elite reputation was believed to influence families to expect consultations. Other considerations included medicolegal risk, clinical pathways, and availability of secure text messaging to facilitate informal “curbside” conversations with subspecialists.

CONCLUSIONS

Decision-making around pediatric subspecialty consultation is complex and influenced by factors unrelated to a patient’s clinical need. Efforts to reduce low-value consultation must account for the social and organizational dynamics that promote consultation.
Casa Michoacán de Los Guindos
Authors: Carreiro de França Franciney
Published: August 2024

Falar em Pablo Neruda é também refletir sobre seus espaços de expressão poética e política, especialmente suas casas. Uma delas, em particular, é pouco lembrada, pois não está no eixo turístico da capital chilena: a casa Michoacán de los Guindos. Neruda vivia nesta casa quando foi eleito Senador da República pelo Partido Comunista do Chile e quando mudou oficialmente seu nome de Ricardo Eliecer Neftali Basoalto para Pablo Neruda; foi a partir dessa casa que Neruda começou sua fuga para o exílio, pelos Andes. A casa Michoacán de los Guindos é, junto com Isla Negra, as primeiras casas do poeta em território chileno e o lar da efervescência política e cultural dos anos 1940 e 1950. Como as outras casas do poeta, Michoacán passou por um profundo processo de remodelação. Este artigo busca contribuir para a análise dessa residência por uma vertente diferente das usuais, pois privilegia o estudo da morfologia. Por meio do resgate e da análise do processo de transformação da habitação, pelos acréscimos aos longos dos anos, buscou-se identificar o que é uma construção nerudiana, do ponto de vista da configuração espacial. O ferramental metodológico utilizado é da Sintaxe Espacial e os resultados indicam um genótipo nerudiano.

Seasonal Dynamics of Salt Licks and Their Use by Wildlife in Amazonia
Authors: Braga-Pereira Franciany , Peres Carlos A , Nóbrega Alves Rômulo Romeu
Published: August 2024

In certain Amazonian regions, 25% of hunting occurs at salt licks, sites rich in natural minerals often near creeks prone to periodic flooding. Here, animals engage in geophagy for mineral supplementation and detoxification what enables local hunter to observe their behaviour while waiting their target. Our study evaluates seasonal salt lick availability and wildlife usage, using interviews and obtained information on 31 vertebrate species across 56 salt licks in the Central Amazon. While soil and water consumption attract wildlife, species also visit for bathing, predation, and other behaviors. In general, the season with the highest wild species abundance was the receding floodwaters season, because the creeks’ water level decreases and so the salt lick is exposed. Conversely, during the flood pulse, interviewees perceived that the majority of salt licks are not visited by most species because they are often covered by water. Most of the interviewees (74,46%) said that salt licks are one of the main places where they hunt, however the hunting at salt licks is only done during the receding floodwaters season. Our findings shed light on the ecological significance of salt licks in Amazonia and their role in supporting diverse wildlife communities.

Meskipun ada pedagang yang tidak pernah melanggar, terdapat juga pedagang yang masih melakukan praktik jual beli yang bertentangan dengan hadis etika bisnis. Kesimpulannya, para pedagang di pasar ini umumnya mengetahui hadis etika bisnis Islam, meskipun pemahaman mereka sering kali terbatas pada dasar-dasarnya, dan masih ada praktik jual beli yang tidak sesuai dengan hadis tersebut
Non-linear mixed Jordan triple $1$-$*$-product on von Neumann algebras
Authors: Khan Abdul , Raza Mohd , Alhazmi Husain
Published: August 2024

It is shown that if $\Ma$ and $\Na$ are two von Neumann algebras, one of which has no central abelian projection with $\psi: \Ma \rightarrow \Na$ satisfying mixed Jordan triple $1$-$*$-product, i.e.,
$$\psi(\Aa \circ \Ba \bullet \Ca)=\psi(\Aa) \circ \psi(\Ba) \bullet \psi(\Ca)$$
for all $\Aa, \Ba, \Ca\in \Ma$, then there exists a bijective map $\Psi: \Ma \rightarrow \Na$ such that $\Psi(\Aa)=\psi(\Ia)\psi(\Aa)$ with $\psi(\Ia)^2=\Ia$, whenever $\psi(\Ia)$ is central, and there exsit a central projection $\mathfrak{P} \in \Ma $ such that the restriction of $\psi$ to $\Ma\mathfrak{P}$ is a linear $*$-isomorphism, and to $\Ma(\Ia -\mathfrak{P})$ is a conjugate linear $*$-isomorphism.
On arithmetical properties of degenerate Cauchy polynomials and numbers
Authors: Cenkci Mehmet , Komatsu Takao
Published: August 2024

In this paper, we study the arithmetical properties of degenerate Cauchy polynomials and numbers. We present some basic properties and recurrence relations, determine all the coefficients of degenerate Cauchy polynomials, and give some convolution identities. These results are particularly useful to deduce interesting and new divisibility properties for degenerate Cauchy polynomials and numbers.
On Some Permutation Trinomials in Characteristic Three
Authors: Gülmez Temür Burcu , Özkaya Buket
Published: August 2024

In this paper, we determine the permutation properties of the polynomial x^3+x^q+2−x^4q−1
over the finite field Fq2 in characteristic three. Moreover, we consider the trinomials of
the form x^4q−1 +x^2q+1 ±x^3. In particular, we first show that x^3 +x^q+2 −x^4q−1 permutes
F_q^2 with q = 3^m if and only if m is odd. This enables us to show that the sufficient
condition in [35, Theorem 4] is also necessary. Next, we prove that x^4q−1 + x^2q+1 − x^3
permutes F_q^2 with q = 3^m if and only if m is congruent to 0 modulo 4. Consequently, we prove that
the sufficient condition in [20, Theorem 3.2] is also necessary. Finally, we investigate the
trinomial x^4q−1 +x^2q+1 +x^3 and show that it is never a permutation polynomial of F_q^2 in
any characteristic. All the polynomials considered in this work are not quasi-multiplicative
equivalent to any known class of permutation trinomials.
An existence result for integro-differential degenerate sweeping process with convex sets.
Authors: Kecies Mohamed
Published: August 2024

In this paper, we study the well-posedness in the sense of existence and uniqueness of a solution of integrally perturbed degenerate sweeping processes, involving convex sets in Hilbert spaces. The degenerate sweeping process is perturbed by a sum of a singlevalued map satisfying a Lipschitz condition and an integral forcing term. The integral perturbation depends on two time-variables, by using a semi-discretization method. Unlike the previous works, the Cauchy’s criterion of the approximate solutions is obtained without any new Gronwall’s like inequality.
On a nonlinear difference equation of the fourth order solvable in closed form and its solutions
Authors: Stevic Stevo
Published: August 2024

We show that a nonlinear difference equation recently considered in this journal is a special case of a solvable class of nonlinear difference equations and that the difference equation is closely related to a difference equation previously considered in the literature. We give some detailed theoretical explanations for the closed-form formulas for the solutions to the four special cases of the difference equation considered therein without giving and theoretical explanations related to them, and also show that several statements on the long-term behaviour of positive solutions to the difference equation are not true.

The recent geographic spread of Oropouche virus (OROV), coupled with an increase in cases and the emergence of previously unrecognized severe manifestations, has raised significant public health concerns. We report the case of a 40-year-old family farmer at 31 weeks of gestation who presented with fever, myalgia, and headache. OROV infection was confirmed by RT-qPCR, followed by nucleotide sequencing and phylogenomic inference, with other infections ruled out. Initially, maternal and fetal health assessments revealed no complications. However, within a week, the patient noted decreased fetal movements, and ultrasound confirmed fetal demise. Molecular diagnostics identified OROV RNA in multiple fetal tissues, confirming vertical transmission. This case highlights the urgent need to protect pregnant women against viral vectors and include OROV into the differential diagnosis of febrile illnesses. Furthermore, it is critical to further investigate the pathogenic mechanisms of this virus, which may lead to changes in public health policies and clinical guidelines.
La protección jurídica de las personas privadas de libertad a la luz de la reforma penal cubana
Authors: Páez Cuba Lisett D. , Torres Rodríguez Laidiana
Published: August 2024

La defensa de los derechos y garantías de las personas privadas de libertad amerita especial atención en un contexto social donde la privación de libertad limita mucho más que la mera libertad ambulatoria. Este artículo tiene como objetivo valorar la protección jurídica de las personas que se encuentran privados de libertad en cualquiera de las fases del proceso penal. A tales fines se emplean los métodos teórico-jurídico y exegético-analítico, en primera instancia para brindar un marco teórico al objeto de investigación y, en segundo lugar, para estudiar las cuatro nuevas leyes cubanas trascendentes a la materia penitenciaria, que incluyen el texto constitucional de 2019 y tres normas penales aprobadas entre 2021 y 2022. Por ende, se analiza la normativa sustantiva y procesal, con énfasis en los presupuestos de la medida cautelar de prisión provisional y el nuevo régimen de penas. En particular se examina la Ley de Ejecución Penal por la novedad que reporta en cuanto a los beneficios penitenciarios y la intervención judicial en dicho proceso. Como principales resultados se muestran los aciertos de estas normas legales y las críticas a las mismas, vislumbrando las novedades del Derecho penitenciario cubano y sus perspectivas a futuro.
Metodologija znanstvenog istraživanja: kako napisati doktorski rad i „preživjeti”?
Authors: Lončar Ivana
Published: August 2024

Na visokim učilištima u Hrvatskoj ne provodi se sustavna analiza uspješnosti na doktorskim studijima. Prema podatcima Državnog zavoda za statistiku, u akad. god. 2020./2021. doktorske studije upisalo je 3.987 doktoranada. Godine 2023. doktorat znanosti u Hrvatskoj steklo je 806 studenata poslijediplomskih studija. Ako bismo pretpostavili da je riječ o studentima koji su doktorirali u trećoj godini doktorskog studija, postotak završnosti doktorskog studija iznosi 20,22 %. Pretpostavimo li da je ipak riječ o doktorandima koji su doktorski studij upisali i ranije, postotak završnosti još je manji. Postotak odustajanja (engl. drop-out) ne bilježe nijedna od dostupnih studija, no opće je poznato da velik broj doktoranada odustaje od studija. Ova radionica pokušava odgovoriti na pitanje zašto je tomu tako (Pogrešan odabir teme?, Pogrešan mentor?, Financijski troškovi?, Usklađivanje doktorskog studija s poslovnim i osobnim životom?) i spriječiti odustajanje od doktorskog studija. Namijenjena je svim doktorandima, kako onima netom upisanim na doktorski studij tako i onima koji dovršavaju pisanje doktorskog rada. Središnja je tema radionice upravljanje vremenom, stresom i očekivanjima koje se pred doktorande postavljaju. Naime, mentori i nastavnici na doktorskim studijima nerijetko zaboravljaju da ulazne kompetencije ne podrazumijevaju metodološku i znanstvenu zrelost, da je riječ o mladim znanstvenicima na početku svog akademskog puta i očekuju da su doktorandi, osobito ako su zaposleni kao asistenti na visokim učilištima, iskusni znanstvenici koji se mogu nositi sa svim izazovima koji ih očekuju. Na ovoj radionici nećete saznati kako se postavlja hipoteza u znanstveno-istraživačkom radu niti koje znanstvene metode možete koristiti, ali će vam pomoći strukturirati vrijeme, obveze i očekivanja i odgovoriti na neka od praktičnih pitanja za koje ste smatrali da ih nije akademski postavljati.

Published: August 2024

O planeta passa por intensas modificações, grande parte ocasionada direta e indiretamente pelo ser humano. A disposição inadequada dos resíduos pode ocasionar o aumento da produção de Gases do Efeito Estufa (GEE), poluição dos solos, contaminação do lençol freático e a proliferação de vetores. Para evitar a expansão ou mitigar esses impactos ambientais, faz-se necessário a destinação ambientalmente adequada desses resíduos, juntamente com políticas de educação ambiental com vistas ao desenvolvimento sustentável dos municípios. O município de Beberibe - CE é extremamente relevante nesse contexto, isso se dá por ser uma cidade relevante no contexto econômico e turístico do estado do Ceará, além de estar desenvolvendo estudos para a implementação de um aterro sanitário. Portanto, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo analisar a composição dos resíduos sólidos urbanos através da gravimetria, geração de resíduos, per capita e do peso específico, para auxiliar na implementação do desenvolvimento sustentável no município de Beberibe – CE. Dentre os resultados obtidos, observou-se que o município tem um potencial para o tratamento dos resíduos, tanto para a reciclagem quanto para a compostagem. Portanto, é relevante que o município desenvolva políticas de educação ambiental para a população, além de estimular o descarte correto dos resíduos sólidos.
Influence of Na-Al phosphate glass leachates in clays sorption behavior toward radionuclides
Authors: Konevnik Yulia V. Konevnik , Martynov Konstantin V. , Kulyukhin Sergey A. , Zakharova Elena V.
Published: August 2024

The article presents the results of the study of the sorption of 90Sr, 137Cs, 233U, 237Np, 239Pu,and 241Am radionuclides from model groundwater, model leachate of aluminophosphate glass and Na2HPO4 solutions of different concentrations on bentonite clays of Kamalinskoye (Krasnoyarsk Territory), Desyaty Khutor (Republic of Khakassia), and Dinozavrovoye (Republic of Kazakhstan) deposits. We determined that the presence of aluminophosphate glass leachate in the liquid phase reduced the sorption activity of the studied clays towards caesium. The distribution coefficients of strontium depend more on the clay properties than on the liquid phase composition. However, with increasing concentration of phosphate ion, we observed an increase in the strength of sorbed strontium retention by clay. The sorption of uranium, neptunium, plutonium and americium, increased in the presence of components leached from the aluminophosphate glass-like matrix, and the strength of their fixation by clay increased.
