Authors: Olegovna Golovina Katerina , Mikhailovich Golovin Alexander , Idelevich Aizman Roman
Published: June 2024

Over the past two decades, rotary circulation pumps have been effectively used to treat patients suffering from chronic heart failure (CHF). However, prolonged contact of blood cells with a foreign surface of the pump can cause hemolysis, thrombosis, bleeding and other disorders. A possible solution to reduce the level of blood cells damage may be the introduction into clinical practice the pumps for maintaining blood circulation with a lower rotor speed - 2000-3000 rpm The purpose of this study was to study the effect of a developed by us disk pump for auxiliary circulation of the left ventricular bypass on hemolytic blood parameters. Methods: A study of the effect of a disk pump of auxiliary blood circulation on human donor blood parameters was conducted using a special simulation stand (n=6) and experiments on laboratory animals (n=3). Results: In studies on donated blood, the level of free hemoglobin (FreeHb) was 0.03±0.1 g/l for 4 hours of the experiment. In animal studies, in the first two days after implantation of the pump, an increase in FreeHb was observed in the range from 0.01±0 to 0.05±0.1 g/l. Further, from the third day to the end of observation, fluctuations in FreeHb in the blood were in the range of 0.03–0.04 g/l. During the same period (1-3 days), there was a significant decrease in hematocrit (Hct), which was restored to background values by the 4th day. The concentrations of sodium, calcium, chlorine ions and blood pH remained virtually unchanged throughout the experiment, and the concentration of potassium tended to increase by the 5th-7th day. Conclusion: The developed prototype of a disc-type auxiliary blood circulation pump for left ventricular bypass did not cause significant hemolytic, electrolyte and acid-base disorders in the blood during 240 minutes of experiment on the stand (in vitro) and during 7 days in an in vivo experiment. It allows to recommend this type of pump for short-term use as a promising heart replacement like a “bridge” to organ transplantation or for unloading the heart in patients with CHF.

Authors: Plado Barreto de Almeida,1 Ana Carolina , Magalhães Farias Francisco Jean , de Souza Rodrigo Carvalho , França Raphaela , Gomes Roberto
Published: June 2024

Zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) bone fractures are traumas frequently encountered in the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery and traumatology, resulting from medium to high energy impacts in the middle third of the face. These fractures can cause aesthetic and functional deformities. Accurate diagnosis is fundamental for clinical management and is usually based on clinical and imaging tests, with computed tomography (CT) being the gold standard. This study aims to describe the kinetics and approaches of CZM trauma according to the literature. A search of recent literature was carried out using the PubMed and SciElo databases with the terms: "Zygomatic bone", "Maxillary bone" and "Bone fractures", covering articles from the last ten years, in Portuguese and English, and 15 articles were selected based on the established inclusion and exclusion criteria. The main etiologies of CZM trauma are traffic accidents, physical assaults, falls from a height and sporting activities, while the treatment of complications from this type of injury depends on theseverity, location, age and presence of associated comorbidities. Treatment can range from observation and monitoring for non-displaced fractures to surgical procedures to realign the bone fragments in order to re-establish symmetry and functionality of the face and associated noble structures.
Glucocorticoids in rheumatology: myths vs. reality
Authors: Rekalov D , Golovach I , Briner I , Tarasenko T , Nikitina D , Mospan V , Krupko V , Samofal E
Published: June 2024

Glucocorticoids (GC) have been the mainstay of practicing rheumatologists since the Nobel Prize was awarded for the discovery of cortisone in 1950. It has been proven that GC have highly effective anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. Identification of genomic and non-genomic effects, which directly affect most pathogenetic processes in the course of rheumatic diseases, served as the basis for the implementation of GC in routine rheumatological therapy. The further widespread introduction of GC into rheumatology practice is due to low cost, high availability, quick onset of action, and activity aimed at preventing organ damage. The optimal choice for the use of GC in the treatment of rheumatic diseases is a specific and individual approach in dosage and routine monitoring. To date, there are no reliable tools for determining the toxicity of GC, which is associated with poor compliance, acute onset or chronic course of adverse events AE, variability in the duration of GC use, and the need for the different dosages to control diseases.
Integration of the mechanism of digital economic forensics into the enterprise management system
Authors:   Institute of Industrial Economics of the NAS of Ukraine, Mysnyk Kateryna
Published: June 2024

The article examines the issue of introducing economic forensics tools into the enterprise management system in the emergence of a digital economy. Economic forensics has a great potential for use to ensure the economic security of enterprises by detecting, preventing and eliminating the consequences of economic and financial violations, but its mass implementation is hindered by the large expenditure of time and resources required by traditional forensics. It is argued that the implementation of economic forensics in the format of an information system using modern information technologies, in particular artificial intelligence, blockchain and machine learning, will allow the integration of economic forensics tools into the practice of enterprise management. The mechanism of digital economic forensics has been formalized as a system that combines the internal relationship and the order of processes and procedures, as well as their methodical, organizational, informational, legal and resource support, the functioning of which is aimed at increasing the economic security of enterprises based on forensics tools and the use of digital technologies. The mechanism is implemented as a sequence of stages of information collection and analysis, detection of risks / suspicious actions, response within the enterprise (with subsequent monitoring of the implementation) or complaints to law enforcement agencies. At each stage, appropriate departments are involved and appropriate digital tools are used, in particular to identify suspicious actions and transactions by comparing them with a database of similar actions from past periods. The advantages of the proposed mechanism include ensuring a systematic collection and analysis of information on economic transactions that may pose risks for the economic security of the enterprise; automated detection of risks and provision of warnings to the management of the enterprise; the possibility of preventing losses or compensating them in the early stages; the ability to resolve a crisis situation without recourse to law enforcement agencies and bearing the corresponding costs and damage to reputation; constant improvement of the quality of risk detection and classification by means of using artificial intelligence tools. All this together may increase the economic security of enterprises.

Molecular identification of abomasal nematodes (Haemonchus spp. and Ostertagia ostertagi) in naturally infected calves
Authors: Shihab H. H. , Hassan S. D.
Published: June 2024

Clear variation in the pathogenicity and epidemiology of gastrointestinal nematodes and sensitivity to anthelminthic drugs require precise epidemiological information for such worms. Our work is the first effort to detect the abomasal nematodes (Haemonchus spp, Ostertagia ostertagi) in calves in Mosul, Iraq through amplification of rDNA ITS1 and ITS 2 regions. Four hundred and eighty (480) faecal samples were collected from 35 private calf herds between October 2021 and April 2022. Ages, origins of the herds, size of the herds, and gender were recorded. Microscopic examination and larval culture were conducted. Specified primers were used for molecular identification. The study showed a 50.6% total prevalence of gastrointestinal nematodes in calves. Haemonchus spp. and Ostertagia ostertagi rates were 62.13%, and 60.9%, respectively. The percentages of L3 of Haemonchus spp. and Ostertagia spp. were 32% and 14% respectively. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) showed reaction products of 321 bp, and 257 bp for studied parasites, respectively. In conclusion, classical laboratory tools may be unable to identify precisely the species and subsequently, minimise the comprehension of parasitic species that circulate in animal populations. Molecular detection is a rapid, highly sensitive, specific and cost-effective procedure that accurately identifies parasite species.
A Study of the Vocabulary in al-Qavânîn al-Kulliyya li-Ẓabṭ al-Luġat at-Turkiyya
Authors: Güzelderen Banu
Published: June 2024

The multi-layered cultural structure of the Mamluk Kipchak area can be seen in the language of the period. The linguistic evolution of the Turkmens and Kipchaks, the initial settlers of the region, is documented in contemporary grammars and dictionaries. The language of the Eastern Turks also became incorporated as their numbers in the region gradually increased. This study investigates the vocabulary used in al-Qavânîn al-Kulliyya li-Ẓabṭ al-Luġat at-Turkiyya, one of the grammars of the period. The first stage of the study was to identify words with the same meanings and equivalent pairs that may be indicators of how the dialect of the period has changed. The status of the words which were considered to be indicators of the dialectal differences between the historical text, and that of the Turkic languages of contemporary Oghuz and Kipchak groups, was then analysed. Results indicate that 37.03% of the fifty-eight words analysed in this study still exist in contemporary Oghuz, while 25.93% are still present, and even have the same meaning, in contemporary Kipchak. The rate of equivalent pairs identified in this historical text was 37.03%.

Attitude and CAS use in senior secondary mathematics: A case study of seven Year 11 students
Authors: Cameron Scott , Ball Lynda
Published: June 2024

This paper investigates the possible influence of attitude on seven Year 11 students’ use of a Computer Algebra System (CAS) during a class activity where students could choose to use CAS or pen-and-paper in solving a range of problems. Investigation of anxiety, confidence,
liking and usefulness through a survey and interview revealed that these components of attitude could influence whether or not a student chose to use CAS. One student, who had a positive attitude towards CAS, made extensive use of CAS in solving given problems. This suggested that, in this
case, the student’s positive attitude towards CAS may have positively influenced her use of CAS. The potential impact of attitude on CAS use has implications for students studying in a school system where CAS is expected to be used in mathematics.
Is small, small enough? Students’ understanding the need for the definition of the derivative as a limit
Authors: Kidron Ivy
Published: June 2024

The research relates to undergraduate students’ understanding of mathematical concepts that relate to the conceptualisation of the continuous such as the notion of limit. The cognitive difficulties that accompany the learning of these concepts at the different stages of the
mathematics education are well reported in the literature. I analyse the influence of activities based on the complementary aspects of discrete and continuous approaches on students’ conceptual understanding of the notion of limit in the derivative concept. The role played by the Computer
Algebra System in permitting to achieve this discrete continuous interplay will be investigated as well.
Differences between Expected Answers and the Answers Given by Computer Algebra Systems to School Equations
Authors: Tonisson Eno
Published: June 2024

Sometimes Computer Algebra Systems (CAS) offer an answer that is somewhat different from the answer that is probably expected by the student or teacher. These (somewhat unexpected) answers could serve as a catalyst for rich mathematical discussion. In this study, over 120 equations
from school mathematics were solved using 8 different CAS. Many answers offered by the CAS coincide with the expected answers. This paper focuses on the answers that deviated from expectations in some sense. The aim of this paper is to present a spectrum of possible differences and to highlight
the situations (equations, CAS) in which a particular type of discrepancy could occur. Furthermore, some remarks are provided about educational use of the differences in classes.

Published: June 2024

RESUMO Objetivo: Analisar as representações sociais da fibromialgia baseadas em seus sintomas e suas influências no diagnóstico e na terapêutica. Métodos: Pesquisa qualitativa com aplicação da Teoria das Representações Sociais e método de amostragem snowball. Realizaram-se entrevistas semiestruturadas com 30 pessoas adultas, diagnosticadas com fibromialgia, na cidade do Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, entre abril de 2020 e janeiro de 2021. Foi realizada análise estatística e lexicográfica pelo software Alceste. Resultados: A dor, como fenômeno subjetivo, dificulta sua legitimidade, o diagnóstico e a terapêutica, potencializando o sofrimento. Informações insuficientes geram julgamentos, estereótipos e preconceitos. Considerações finais: Estigmas, preconceitos, a variedade e a invisibilidade sintomatológica dificultam a objetivação da doença nos moldes cartesianos-biomédicos, gerando peregrinação diagnóstica, equívocos e desafios no tratamento. Tais representações interditam as relações e o manejo da doença. Desconstruí-las é um caminho para melhor cuidar dos que têm fibromialgia. Sensibilizar as pessoas e difundir informações qualificadas são importantes aliados.

Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate the association between employment status and mental health, considering food insecurity as a mediator of this relation. A cross-sectional population-based study was conducted with adults (≥ 18 and < 60 years) during the COVID-19 outbreak in two cities from Southern Brazil. Employment status was categorized into working, not working, and lost job. The mental health outcomes evaluated were depressive symptoms, perceived stress, and sadness. Food insecurity was identified by the short-form version of the Brazilian Food Insecurity Scale. Adjusted analyses using Poisson regression were performed to assess the association between employment status and mental health. Mediation analysis was performed to investigate the direct and indirect effects of employment status on mental health outcomes. In total, 1,492 adults were analyzed. The not working status was associated with 53% and 74% higher odds of perceived stress and of sadness, respectively. Being dismissed during the pandemic increased the odds of depressive symptoms, perceived stress, and sadness by 68%, 123%, and 128%, respectively. Mediation analyses showed that food insecurity was an important mediator of the association between employment status and depressive symptoms and sadness, but not of perceived stress. The complexity of these results highlights economic and nutritional aspects involved in mental health outcomes.
Presidential election results in 2018-2022 and its association with excess mortality during the 2020-2021 COVID-19 pandemic in Brazilian municipalities

Published: June 2024

Abstract: We evaluated the hypothesis of an association between excess mortality and political partisanship in Brazil using municipal death certificates registered in the Brazilian Ministry of Health database and first-round electoral results of Presidential elections in 2018 and 2022. Considering the former Brazilian President’s stance of discrediting and neglecting the severity of the pandemic, we expect a possible relationship between excessive mortality rates during the COVID-19 health crisis and the number of municipal votes for Bolsonaro. Our results showed that, in both elections, the first-round percentage of municipal votes for Bolsonaro was positively associated with the peaks of excess deaths across Brazilian municipalities in 2020 and 2021. Despite the excess mortality during the pandemic, the political loyalty to Bolsonaro remained the same during the electoral period of 2022. A possible explanation for this is linked to the Brazilian political scenario, which presents an environment of tribal politics and affective polarization.

Resumo Muitos linguistas aplicados brasileiros têm se preocupado com a lacuna existente entre a formação inicial e continuada de professores e as fragilidades na relação universidade-escola (REIS, 2018; GIMENEZ; BONACELLI, 2013; GIMENEZ et al., 2008; ECKERT-HOFF, 2008, SÓL, 2014, REIS e CAMPOS, 2021, dentre outros). No entanto, há ainda muito a fazer, pesquisar e refletir sobre a formação inicial e continuada de professores. Assim, este estudo objetivou investigar a (des)construção identitária de docentes de Língua Inglesa (LI) da Educação Básica, de professores em formação e de seus formadores, envolvidos em disciplinas de Estágio Supervisionado (ES) em uma universidade federal do Estado de Minas Gerais. Este estudo seguiu o paradigma qualitativo-interpretativista (DENZIN; LINCOLN, 2006; FLICK, 2009) e princípios etnográficos de pesquisa, contando com a participação de duas formadoras de professores, dois professores em formação e duas professoras de LI da rede pública de ensino, supervisoras de ES. Os instrumentos de geração dos registros foram questionários semiestruturados e narrativas escritas. O corpus foi analisado descritivamente e qualitativamente sob o referencial teórico da Linguística Aplicada (LA) e abordagens filosóficas de Michel Foucault, Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze e Félix Guattari. A partir dos gestos de interpretação, pode-se perceber que as três instâncias representadas pelos professores supervisores dos ES, os professores em formação e os formadores se apresentam por meio de uma tríade rizomática de formação docente, em que se atravessam, afetam e são afetadas pelas práticas uns dos outros. Concluindo, o estudo evidencia que não é possível pensar a relação universidade-escola sem considerar a multiplicidade de fatores que incidem sobre esses dois espaços e que é inevitável analisar um desses espaços sem atravessar o outro.

Resumo Inseridos em práticas contemporâneas de formação de professores de línguas no âmbito da Linguística Aplicada, discutimos neste texto a dinamização do programa Ler para Aprender (LPA, ROSE; MARTIN, 2012, ROSE, 2020a, 2020b) na formação inicial de professores, bem como a articulação entre os gêneros do currículo e os gêneros do conhecimento por meio de uma metalinguagem pedagógica, conforme noção teórica de gênero de texto proposta por Martin e Rose (2008) e a proposta de letramento contida em Rose e Martin (2012), além dos aspectos linguístico-gramaticais, que tomam por base a Linguística Sistêmico-Funcional de Halliday (HALLIDAY; MATTHIESSEN, 2014; ROSE; MARTIN, 2007). Objetivamos apresentar o modo como a metalinguagem pode ser produzida e recontextualizada da teoria linguística para o trabalho com a formação do professor, da teoria para a prática, em um contexto específico: professores em pré-serviço participantes do Programa Institucional de Bolsas de Iniciação à Docência (Pibid) e daí para o ensino.
Feminismo Negro na Literatura Angolana
Authors: Cabanillas Natalia , Oliveira Lindiana da Silva
Published: June 2024

Resumo: No presente artigo, nos propomos a uma análise interseccional do Diário de um exílio sem regresso (publicado em 2003) escrito entre 1956 e 1967 pela ativista e combatente angolana Deolinda Rodrigues. Procuramos apresentar como a vida e a obra de Deolinda Rodrigues podem contribuir para os estudos interseccionais de gênero, evidenciando que as ideias da autora no período das lutas anticoloniais eram confluentes com as do feminismo negro; para isso, partimos das análises bibliográficas e documental da obra citada. Os principais resultados encontrados nessa investigação apontam que as contribuições de Deolinda Rodrigues nos permitem repensar as genealogias do feminismo negro. Pontuamos a importância de contar com mais pesquisas sobre autoras negras que ajudaram a construir a história de países africanos através da literatura, do ativismo e da experiência.

Published: June 2024

Resumo: O objetivo do artigo é apresentar a trajetória de inserção das mulheres na arqueologia peruana e o desenvolvimento da arqueologia feminista e de gênero no país. A influência dos movimentos feministas peruanos foi crucial para que houvesse uma abertura da disciplina que permitisse a entrada das mulheres no trabalho arqueológico. Apesar disso, ainda existe uma série de desafios enfrentados pelas arqueólogas peruanas e as subáreas de feminismo e gênero ainda encontram resistências na disciplina.

ABSTRACT Stenospermocarpy in mango trees is associated with hormonal regulation and boron fertilization. However, the mode of action of plant growth regulators and boron in mango trees of the Palmer cultivar affected by this physiological disorder needs to be elucidated. In this scenario, this study aimed to evaluate the association of plant growth regulators (auxin, cytokinin, and gibberellin) and boron with the incidence of stenospermocarpic fruits in ‘Palmer’ mango. Two experiments were conducted in two consecutive crop years (2018 and 2019) in a commercial orchard. The experiment was set up in a randomized block design, with six treatments and four replicates. The treatments consisted of: T1 = water application (control); T2 = gibberellin (25 ppm, GA3); T3 = auxin (25 ppm, naphthaleneacetic acid); T4 = cytokinin (25 ppm, 6-BA); T5 = boron (2 ppm); and T6 = boron (2 ppm) + gibberellin (25 ppm). The application of gibberellic acid during the flowering phase resulted in higher mean values for the number of stenospermocarpic fruits. The cytokinin treatment reduced the incidence of stenospermocarpic fruits and led to higher mean values for the number of productive branches. Boron, auxin, and the combination of gibberellin and boron did not reduce the stenospermocarpy indices. Hormonal balance plays a crucial role in the manifestation of stenospermocarpic fruits, with gibberellin being associated with the expression of this disorder, while cytokinin exerts an antagonistic effect. The application of boron and auxin did not have a predominant effect on the increase or reduction of stenospermy.

ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the transmission dynamics of dengue, a public health problem in Brazil and the Metropolitan Region of Belo Horizonte (MRBH). Methods: The spatiotemporal evolution of the occurrence of dengue in the municipality of Contagem, state of Minas Gerais, a region with high arbovirus transmission, was analyzed. Furthermore, epidemic and non-epidemic periods were analyzed, based on probable cases of dengue. This is an ecological study that used the Notifiable Diseases Information System (SINAN) national database. The analyses were carried out considering the period from epidemiological week (EW) 40 of 2011 to 39 of 2017. Spatial analysis tools (crude and smoothed incidence rate, directional distribution ellipse, global Moran index and local Moran index, and spatial scanning time with definition of epidemiological risk) were used. Results: The 2012 to 2013 and 2015 to 2016 epidemic cycles presented high incidence rates. The disease was concentrated in more urbanized areas, with a small increase in cases throughout the municipality. Seven statistically significant local clusters and areas with a high rate of cases and accentuated transmission in epidemic cycles were observed throughout the municipality. Spatial autocorrelation of the incidence rate was observed in all periods. Conclusion: The results of the present study highlight a significant and heterogeneous increase in dengue notifications in Contagem over the years, revealing distinct spatial patterns during epidemic and non-epidemic periods. Geoprocessing analysis identified high-risk areas, a piece of knowledge that can optimize the allocation of resources in the prevention and treatment of the disease for that municipality.

Published: June 2024

Resumo O presente artigo teve por objetivo principal explicitar os fundamentos teórico-metodológicos de uma experiência pedagógica realizada na Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade Federal da Bahia, no campo das ‘humanidades médicas’. Trata-se da disciplina ‘Arte e saúde’, ministrada desde 2016, na qual se procurou desenvolver uma estratégia de ensino que explicita e discute, na prática médica, questões relacionadas a corporeidade, gênero e cuidado à saúde. Nessa perspectiva, procurou-se explorar a potencialidade transgressora da arte como uma forma de problematizar um conjunto de pressupostos, princípios e valores subjacentes às relações sociais que, usualmente, são estabelecidas nos encontros entre terapeutas e pacientes. Neste artigo, discutimos apenas sobre um módulo dessa disciplina: aquele em que usamos exemplos de performances artísticas para refletir a dimensão corporal da experiência humana (corporeidade) e o mundo da vida cotidiana.

ABSTRACT Objective: To identify the factors associated with the omission of nursing care and patient safety climate. Method: A cross-sectional study developed at a university hospital in the Brazilian Center-West, between September and December 2022. The MISSCARE-Brazil and the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire were applied to a convenience sample of 164 nursing professionals. Results: The most omitted care was walking three times a day or as prescribed (66.5%). The overall score of the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire was 63,8 (SD: 12,6). The level of satisfaction (p<0.018) and the perception of professional adequacy (p<0.018) were associated with the omission of nursing care and the patient safety climate. Conclusion: The study showed a high prevalence of omission of care and unfavorable perception of the patient safety climate, mainly associated with professional adequacy for work performance.

ABSTRACT Duponchelia fovealis is an important pest in strawberry crops. In search of an alternative biological control method, the objective of this study was to assess the effects of a diet composed of Ephestia kuehniella or D. fovealis eggs offered to Chrysoperla externa larvae on their subsequent development and survival under controlled conditions. Biological and reproductive parameters of C. externa were assessed. Additionally, the daily predation of D. fovealis eggs by C. externa was analyzed. Finally, a fertility life table was constructed. The egg-to-pupa development time differed significantly between diets. The weights of firstand second-generation male C. externa pupae were significantly higher when fed on D. fovealis eggs. Males tended to live longer on a diet based on D. fovealis eggs, but females presented no significant differences between diets. The oviposition period tended to be longer for C. externa fed on D. fovealis eggs. The time between generations and the net reproductive rate were greater for C. externa fed on D. fovealis eggs. The results showed that D. fovealis eggs are a suitable diet for the development of C. externa. This information is important for developing protocols for the use of C. externa as a biocontrol agent against this pest.
