Purpose: Lactoferrin is a member of the milk protein family with a broad spectrum of bioactivities and has therapeutic effects against many microbes, viruses, and other pathogens. This study aims to show the healing effect of lactoferrin against obesity-related wound healing. Materials and Methods: In this study, 48 male rats were grouped as the Control (C) (n =8), Full-thickness skin defect model (FT) (n =8), Bovine Lactoferrin (bLf) (200 mg/kg)(n= 8), High Fat Diet (HFD) + Bovine Lactoferrin (bLf) (n = 8), High-Fat Diet (HFD)+Full-thickness skin defect model (FT) (n=8), and HFD+Full-thickness skin defect model (FT) + Bovine Lactoferrin bLf (n=8). High-Fat Diet + bLf and High-Fat Diet + Full-thickness skin defect + bLf group rats were given a high-fat diet and Bovine Lactoferrin orally. IL-6 and VEGF biochemical parameters were examined in serum. Results: When the serum IL-6 protein amounts of the groups were examined, it was the highest in the HFD+FT+bLf group on the 21st day, and the lowest in the FT group, when the serum VEGF protein amounts, which were the other biochemical parameters, were evaluated, these amounts were found to be the highest in the HFD+FT+bLf group and the lowest in the FT group on the 21st day. Conclusion: Lactoferrin has been shown to accelerate wound healing, and the fact that lactoferrin is readily available and abundant in milk makes it an exciting treatment option for wound healing and inflammation in the future.

Exploring Smoking Cessation Discourses on Indonesian Social Media: Opportunities and Challenges
Authors: Sitohang Marya Yenita
Published: December 2023

The use and availability of social media have grown exponentially, providing new opportunities to support smoking cessation efforts. Social media encompasses various interactive platforms, enabling individuals and communities to exchange information within a virtual network. This study aims to identify discourses related to smoking cessation encouragement among Indonesian people in social media. To collect data on social media, particularly Twitter, the researchers used Netlytic as a tool and limited the keyword to "rokok" in the Indonesian language. Content analysis was used to analyse collected tweets and identify themes related to smoking. Social network analysis was also conducted to identify actors and relationship between actors. The study found that discourse around smoking can either support smoking cessation intervention, normalise smoking and cigarettes, which may not support cessation efforts, or be neutral. Themes that support smoking cessation efforts include sharing experiences as a second-hand smoker, discomfort having a smoking partner, family members' sickness due to smoking, and reporting health disadvantages of smoking. Besides, smoking was normalised, and its devastating health effects were neglected since people saw smoking as a "teman ngopi". Smoking cessation campaigns on social media can use relevant threads on Twitter to make them more relatable to encourage smoking cessation.

El modo de nacimiento –parto normal frente a cesárea– podría afectar el desarrollo y a la salud futura. La comprensión de estos posibles vínculos podría servir de base para las intervenciones venideras. El objetivo es describir y correlacionar las dimensiones del desarrollo infantil en relación con la motricidad gruesa, fina y el lenguaje en función de la segmentación por el tipo de nacimiento de parto normal y parto por cesárea. La muestra incluía 300 preescolares de entre 4 y 5 años del municipio de Soledad, Colombia. El instrumento utilizado es el TEPSI. Para determinar la correlación entre el tipo de nacimiento y los ámbitos se realizó la prueba de correlación Bivariada de Pearson con p £ 0,01 usando el software SPPS V25.0. El modo de nacimiento por segmentación de cesárea tiene correlación positiva significativa entre coordinación y lenguaje (r = .401; p =.000); coordinación y motricidad (r = .577; p = .000); y entre lenguaje y motricidad (r = .484; p = .000). El modo de nacimiento por segmentación de parto natural tiene una correlación positiva significativa entre lenguaje y motricidad (r = .410; p = .000). El estudio apoya la importancia de conocer el modo de parto y su vinculación con el desarrollo psicomotor, atendiendo a las evidencias de investigaciones previas que alertan de la existencia de efectos negativos para preescolares nacidos por cesárea.

MODELING OF THE CONCEPT SPHERE IN ARTISTIC DISCOURSE AS A MECHANISM OF TRANSLATION OF THE WORLD PICTURE (IN THE PRACTICE OF TEACHING RUSSIAN AS A FOREIGN)
Authors: Стародубова О.Ю.
Published: December 2023

В статье рассматриваются способы конструирования системы концептов, а также средства их объективации на прагматическом и лингвистическом уровнях в рамках художественного дискурса на примере малой прозы XX века. При этом художественный текст воспринимается как сегмент дискурса, в который инкрустируется пресуппозиция, и становится транслятором системы ценностей, интерпретативной картины мира, представляющей продукт творческой личности, категоризацию действительности. Художественный текст, таким образом, является ценным источником историко-культурных сведений, отражением динамики национальной и универсальной картины мира как для носителей исходного языкового сознания, так и для инофонов.

The article discusses the ways of constructing a system of concepts, as well as the means of their objectification at the pragmatic and linguistic levels within the framework of artistic discourse on the example of short prose of the 20th century. At the same time, a literary text is perceived as a segment of discourse, in which presupposition is inlaid, and it becomes a translator of a system of values, an interpretive worldview, representing the product of a creative personality. Literary text, therefore, is a valuable source of historical and cultural information, a reflection of the dynamics of the national and universal picture of the world, both for carriers of the original linguistic consciousness and for foreigners.

Authors: Mohammadi-Kebar Yousef , Zandian Hamed , Khazdooz Zahra
Published: December 2023

Background: Inflammatory arthritis is associated with abnormal levels of lipoprotein. The cause is considered to be inflammation. Recently, the use of biologic drugs in the treatment of inflammatory arthritis, especially rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and seronegative spondyloarthropathy, has increased. There are different results of the effect of these drugs on fat profile. Evaluate the impact of anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha drugs on lipid profile of patients with RA or seronegative spondyloarthritis.
Methods: In this cross-sectional descriptive study, 50 patients with rheumatoid arthritis or seronegative spondyloarthritis, who were candidates for TNF alpha treatment, were included in the study. After obtaining written consent, a checklist was completed for all patients including demographic information such as age, sex, height, weight, place of residence, level of education, type of disease, and lipid profile test results including total cholesterol, triglycerides (TG), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL) were recorded. Then the patients were treated and evaluated for fat profile after 3, 6, 9 months after receiving the relevant treatment regimen. The test results were recorded in checklists. After completing the study, the data were entered into the statistical package for the social sciences (SPSS) 24 software and analyzed.
Results: The mean age of patients was 46.38±14.33 years. 54% of patients were female. 54% of patients had rheumatoid arthritis. 62% of patients were treated with Sinora. The results of this study showed that serum triglyceride levels increased during the study period and this increase was statistically significant but the trend of changes in serum cholesterol, HDL and LDL levels was not statistically significant. However, serum LDL levels measured in the ninth month increased significantly compared to the initial measurement.
Conclusions: Results showed that there was a significant relationship between lipid profile changes and anti-TNF alpha consumption. Although decreased inflammation appears but other mechanisms may be involved in dyslipidemia.

Authors: Patel Prakruti P. , Gandhi Ashay , Gandhi Anuradha M. , K. Desai Mira
Published: December 2023

Background: Post operative pain is difficult to assessment and its management has been neglected at times. Moreover, the drug treatment involves administration of drug on as and when basis which leads to inadequate control.
Methods: This observational, prospective study was conducted in 100 post-operative patients i.e., 50 each from surgery and orthopedics departments. Investigator enrolled post-operative patients within 24 hours of surgery and followed them for next 5 days or till hospital discharge, whichever was earlier. Analgesic prescribing pattern, self-assessment of pain, patient and doctor satisfaction using ASSIST questionnaire were recorded in Case Record Form and analysed.
Results: Out of 100 patients, average number of analgesics prescribed post-operatively was 1.49±0.5 (baseline and all follow-up). 76.5% patients received NSAIDs which included diclofenac (44.29%) and paracetamol (30.87%). Opioids in the form of tramadol were prescribed in 23.49% patients. Mean least pain experienced by patients on day 1 was 2±0.75 which decreased to 1.32±0.63 on day 5. Mean worst pain decreased from 6.64±1.43 on day 1 to 3.38±1.17 on day 5. Average percentage of duration of severe pain was 35.2%±16.48 on day 1 which successively decreased to 16.32±8.26 on day 5. Average pain relief observed in 62.3% patients on day one increased to 80.88% on day 5. Patient satisfaction increased as pain score decreased (r=-0.73) and a strong positive correlation was observed between doctor satisfaction and patient satisfaction (r=0.91).
Conclusions: Inadequate control of post-operative pain affects effective patient management and recovery. Incorporation of effective pain assessment scores in pain management is desirable.

Published: December 2023

Background: The present study aimed to compare hemodynamic parameters (heart rate, blood pressure) and adverse effects (injection pain, myoclonus, postoperative nausea/vomiting) between Etomidate and propofol groups.
Methods: Patients were divided into two groups: Etomidate Group E and a Propofol Group P. All hemodynamic data were measured during induction, intubation, and post-intubation up to 15 min. Intravenous cortisol levels were measured at baseline, just after induction and at 24 hours after induction.
Results: At 3 min and 5 min SBP was decreased by 22.04% and 18.39% in Group P. At 3 min there was fall in DBP by 20.13% in group P whereas there was an increase in group E by 0.13% which is statistically significant (p<0.001). At 1 min, 3 min and 5 min after intubation, fall in the MAP by 26.07%, 21.08% and 18.60% in group P and 0.77%, 0.42% and 1.30% in group E (p value <0.001). Serum cortisol level immediate after surgery was decrease (54%) in Group E (p value <0.001). In Group P, 40% of the patients and in group E 16.66 % of the patients complained of pain on injection (p value 0.046).
Conclusions: The cortisol suppression by Etomidate may be beneficial for intubation stress response. Etomidate is better for its hemodynamic stability over propofol.

Authors: Parikh Honshil V. , Vyas Bhavesh M. , Dumra Gurusharan H.
Published: December 2023

Background: Schizophrenia is a chronic severe psychiatric illness affecting nearly 0.4 to 1.4% of people in India. Many newer anti-psychotic drugs are used now-a-days in schizophrenia. Poor adherence to the treatment given to patients of schizophrenia is observed very often. Although, the quality of life of schizophrenia patients is very much compromised; at the same time, quality of life of the caregiver is also compromised.
Methods: A cross-sectional Observational study was conducted among patients already diagnosed with Schizophrenia and on treatment, after ethical approval. Data relevant to study variables was collected in a pre-designed case record form. Evaluation of drug utilization pattern was done by WHO core drug prescribing indicators. Medication adherence was assessed through modified Morisky scale. Quality of life of relative or caregiver was assessed through WHO-QOL BREF questionnaire scale.
Results: Patients of 18 years and above were enrolled. Among them, average age was 35.8±5.5 years. In my study, female patients were 64.7% and male patients were 35.3%. Average number of drugs per prescription was 3.8. Drugs prescribed by generic name were around 86.2%. Around 56.9% of drugs were prescribed from national list of essential medicines. Atypical antipsychotics were prescribed in 32% of all prescriptions for Schizophrenia; Whereas Benzodiazepines were prescribed in 19% of all prescriptions. Average Medication adherence score using MMS scale was 3.7±2.2. Patients with high adherence to the medications prescribed were nearly 71% and patients with low adherence to the medications prescribed were 29%. Mean total WHOQOL-BREF score was 75.2±6.5 out of 120.
Conclusions: Most prescribed class of drugs was atypical anti-psychotics. Pharmacotherapeutic adherence among patients with schizophrenia was relatively high. Quality of life of patients’ relative or caregiver was impaired to some extent, more impaired in physical health and social relationships domain.
Meteoric effect of meropenem: an unrevealed case report on Jarisch Herxheimer reaction
Authors: Ravi Sushmitha , Gandhi Andhuvan , Prasad Ganesh , Shanmugam Sriram
Published: December 2023

Jarisch Herxheimer Reaction is an immune mediated, self- limited reaction that releases endotoxins from the spirochetes. It occurs due to an acute inflammatory response when lipoproteins, owing to their entry into the patient's bloodstream, cause an increase in inflammatory cytokines during the period of exacerbation, resulting in body aches, fevers, rashes, nausea and vomiting, and flushing, along with other symptoms. These symptoms usually begin within 2 hours after the administration of the antibiotics. We represent a 76-year-old male patient who has had a known case of recurrent urinary tract infections since 2017 and was recently diagnosed with urosepsis and syphilis after being administered an injection of Meropenem, wherein he developed a Jarisch Herxheimer Reaction. The causality assessment revealed a Naranjo score of 7, indicating a probable adverse drug reaction. This patient was treated with intravenous antihistamines and corticosteroids for its management. Benzathine penicillin was avoided owing to the previous suspected Jarisch Herxheimer Reaction. None of the studies reported that Meropenem could contribute to such a reaction. All healthcare professionals should maintain a high alert of suspicion and be aware of antibiotic induced Jarisch Herxheimer Reaction symptoms and their management to avoid life threatening conditions.

As décadas finais do século XIX e as primícias do século XX foram de mudanças políticas, econômicas e sociais para um Brasil que se tornava republicano. Nas cidades, projetos higienistas espoliavam as camadas da população mais vulneráveis em troca de um embelezamento da urbe. Assumindo uma concepção abrangente do processo educativo é possível vislumbrar nos veículos midiáticos – mais precisamente na imprensa, nosso objeto de estudo – um exercício de pedagogia dos corpos. Com efeito, os veículos tipográficos assumiram um papel protagonista nesta trama de educar uma população campesina que se tornava urbana. O objetivo deste trabalho repousa nesta formulação, identificando nos periódicos locais selecionados da cidade de Franca durante o apogeu de sua modernização (1890-1940) um retrato deste domínio dos gestos.

An examination of the seroprevalence of torch infections and their correlation with adverse reproductive outcomes in females exhibiting a bad obstetric history
Authors: Al-Karawi Abdullah Salim , Mohammed Mohammed , Al-Saadi May Salem
Published: December 2023

: The term TORCH infections refer to a group of diseases including Toxoplasma, Other (syphilis, varicella-zoster, parvovirus B19), Rubella, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), and Herpes infections. These are a set of pathogens capable of traversing the placental barrier, subsequently causing congenital infections. Often these infections are asymptomatic initially and pose significant diagnostic challenges during gestation, potentially leading to undesirable obstetric outcomes. This research intends to explore the correlation between TORCH infections and perinatal outcomes within pregnancies deemed high-risk.

: We examined 143 high-risk pregnant patients aged 18-46 from the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department at the Baghdad Gynecology and Obstetrics Hospital. Hundreds of normal pregnancy group were also included. The high-risk group encompassed women with recurring pregnancy loss, fetal congenital anomalies, intrauterine fetal death, and low birth weight intrauterine neonatal death. The presence of IgG and IgM antibodies against TORCH agents in patients’ serum control serum were assessed using ELISA kits. We compared perinatal outcomes between TORCH seropositive and seronegative high-risk pregnant women.

: Among the 143 high-risk pregnancies, a significant proportion of young, low-parity women from diverse residences were co-seropositive for Toxoplasma gondii, rubella virus, Cytomegalovirus, and Herpes Simplex infections. Of these, 55 cases (48.4%) were seropositive for all the four TORCH agents compared to 88 cases (38%) were seropositive for antibodies to one to three of the TORCH agents. IgG seropositivity was 74.5%, while IgM seropositivity was 31.8% for Toxoplasma gondii, 3.6% for CMV and 0% for RV infections, respectively. Significantly, high-risk pregnancies with TORCH seropositivities exhibited a clearly strong correlation with Habitual abortions outcomes.

: High-risk manifestations demonstrated for Toxoplasma gondii, Rubella virus, Cytomegalovirus and Herpes Simplex infections strongly associated with habitual abortions compare to high but less significant association in those seropositive to one, two or three of the TORCH agents

Published: December 2023

The article is aimed to analyze the work motivation of employees of modern Russian aerospace enterprises engaged in automated and non-automated production sites. The authors give an overview of the existing approaches to the analysis of work motivation and provide data from the pilot sociological study conducted in October 2023 (N=86), when theoretical and applied problems were solved. Theoretically, the hypothesis about the influence of digitalization and robotization processes on the factors of labor motivation was tested. The applied task of the study was connected with the approbation of the tools of sociological research and methods of factor and cluster analysis to the data obtained during the survey of employees. The conducted research enabled the authors to conclude about 3 main groups of motives that form the factors of the employees’ work motivation of the surveyed enterprise: 1) motivation of professional realization; 2) material motivation and 3) socially-oriented motivation. As a result of the cluster analysis, two groups of employees were identified, depending on the type of dominant motives: those who are materially oriented towards professional self-realization ("pragmatists") and those who expect approval and support from their superiors and their colleagues in the course of their work ("conformists"). Despite the fact that the hypothesis about the influence of the automation level of a production site on the type of the employee’s dominant motivation has been confirmed using the discriminant analysis method, it needs additional verification on a larger sample scale.

Published: December 2023

The Ni-Al, Ni-Ce and Ni-Ce-Al catalysts tested in the dry methane reforming (DRM) were studied. Catalysts were synthesized by solution combustion synthesis and characterized by BET, XRD and TEM. Catalytic activity was studied at 600–900 °C with a 33%CH4:33%CO2:34%Ar (vol.%) fed with total flow rate of 100 ml/ min (3000 h−1). The CH4 and CO2 conversion increased with the increasing of Ce up to 15 wt.%, however, with further increase in Ce content conversion of gases decreased. Carbon was formed as filaments when catalysts worked at high temperature. CeAlO3 species could prevent the formation of filamentous carbon during DRM. Solution combustion synthesis is attractive method of preparation of catalysts, due to high dispersion of Ni particles, thus, surface area is small, diminishing the coke deposition and enhancing the stability.

Fakat hurûfât kayıtlarında ait oldukları bölgelerin sosyo-iktisadî ve itikâdî durumlarına dair bilgilere erişmek de mümkündür. Çalışma, bir idarî birim olmakla birlikte Serçeşme, Hacı Bektaş Veli Dergâhı şeklinde itikâdî bir hüviyeti olan Hacı Bektaş kazası hakkında hurûfât kayıtlarının neler söylediğini ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. İtikâdî boyutuyla kazadaki Bektaşî köyler ile Bektaşî olmayan köyler ve bunlara ait cami, mescit, medrese, zâviye ve tekkeler ile varsa vakıflar tarif edilmiştir. Bu maksatla hurûfât defterindeki Hacı Bektaş ve Mucur kazalarını ihtiva eden kayıtlar tetkik edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgularda öncelikle Hacı Bektaş, Mucur mea Hacı Bektaş şeklinde kaza belirtmeleri ve bağlı mahalle ile köyleri ortaya konulmuştur. Sonra da serçeşme olması bakımından Hacı Bektaş dergâhı başta olmak üzere dergâha bağlı mahalle ve köyler ele alınmıştır. Gelinen noktada Hacı Bektaş hurûfât kayıtlarının kazanın idarî boyutu ve yapısı ile özellikle Bektaşî olmadığı düşünülen köylere ait çok daha fazla bilgi barındırdığı söylenebilir. Buna karşın kazadaki Bektaşî köy ve mahalleleri ile Hacı Bektaş Dergâhı, dergâhtaki postnişinler, dervişler, gelir ve gider durumlarına ait bilgiler oldukça sınırlıdır. Yine Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun diğer bölgelerindeki Bektaşî tarikatına bağlı tekke ve zâviyelere ait bilgilere hurûfât kayıtlarında rastlanılmamıştır.

İslâmcı düşüncenin gelişim seyrinin okunduğu kaynaklardan birisi İslâmcı dergilerdir. İslâmcı dergiler yakın tarihte gerçekleşen olaylar hakkında bilgi vermenin yanı sıra dinî düşünce ve dinî kavramların gelişiminin nasıl şekillendiğini görmek adına da önemli kaynaklar arasında yer almaktadır. İslâmcı dergilerin serüveninin oluşum safhalarını takip etmek, Türkiye’de İslâm düşüncesinde kırılma noktalarını anlamada ve İslâm düşüncesi araştırmalarında bütünlük sağlamaktadır.

Türkiye’de çok partili yaşama geçişle birlikte yaşanan kısmi özgürlük ortamı İslâmi dergicilik alanına da sirayet etmiştir. İslâmcılık düşüncesinin kendini ifade etmesi için uygun şartların oluşması, 1960’lı yıllarda Türkiye’nin farklı bir periyoda girmesine sebep olmuştur. Tercüme faaliyetleri olarak ifade edilen yeni dönemde ağırlıklı olarak Mısır’dan İhvân-ı Müslimîn, Pakistan bölgesinden Cemaat-i İslâmi hareketlerinin eserleri Türkçe‘ye çevrilmiştir. Bu eserlerin katkısıyla Seyyid Kutub başta olmak üzere Hasan el-Bennâ, Mevdûdî gibi isimler Türkiye’de İslâmcı düşüncenin yeni kurucuları olarak adlarından söz ettirmişlerdir.

İhvân hareketinin, Türkiye’de yayın yapan İslâmcı dergiler arasında nasıl algılandığı konusu üzerine müstakil çalışmalar sınırlıdır. Bu sebeple makalede amacımız, İhvân hareketinin Türkiye’de bilinmesinde etkisi büyük olan Hilâl dergisindeki algısını tespit etmektir. Bu doğrultuda, İhvân-ı Müslimîn’in fikir adamları kadrosunun Türkiye’ye giriş kapısının büyük oranda Hilâl dergisi ve Hilâl yayınları olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Hilâl dergisinde 1960-1970’li yıllarda yoğunlaşan tercümelerle Türkiye’de İslâmcı düşünceye aksiyon getirilmesi ve İslâmi uyanışa katkı yapılmasının hedeflendiği görülmüştür.

Published: December 2023

The present study determines the effects of Task-Based language teaching (TBLT) on the writing proficiency and collocational ability of second language (L2) learners who were enrolled in a Pakistani government college. Learning collocational vocabulary is essential for second language learners. Collocations are also crucial for learning a second language especially at the advanced and intermediate levels. The objective of the current study was to determine how collocation knowledge affected the writing abilities of advanced second language (L2) learners. Tasks are the primary instructional technique in the current study and their effects on learners' knowledge of collocations in college students' narrative essay writing were assessed using a range of communicative and awareness-raising task-based materials. Writing samples were collected at the beginning and end of the study to assess the writing abilities of second language (L2) learners. The interviews with participants were used to conduct a thematic analysis using the qualitative technique. Two teachers evaluated the writing sample and were interviewed. The assessors' observations from the interviews on language content, organizational skills, lexical range, use of target language and mechanics were considered while analyzing the impacts of the teaching strategy and collocation use. The data analysis revealed a considerable improvement in the students writing and collocation knowledge.

The main purpose of this study is to explore the effect of germination and non-germination on the nutritional and functional properties of rice varieties. In this study, two types of rice—Ahu Kalogoria (germinated) and Ranjit (non-germinated)—and the husk of Ahu variety rice were chosen and described based on their accession numbers. The rice came from Goalpara, Chirang, and Kokrajhar in the Indian state of Assam. Finally, their calorific values and nutritional and functional constituents were examined. Standard and validated experimental protocols are considered for the assessment of all parameters during this study. RC-0648663 (Ranjit rice, Chirang) and LK1-0646984 (Ahu Kalogoria, Goalpara) contain higher calorific values, i.e., 361.24±1.95aKcal/100gm and 356.35±1.32aKcal/100gm, and the Husk LK1-0646984H (Ahu Kalogoria husk, Goalpara) contains 222.51±3.07cKcal/100gm. Mg was found as a potential mineral in all varieties. Optimum total flavonoid content (TFC) and total phenolic content (TPC) were found in LK1-0646984(324.75±0.58amg QE/100gm; 353.7±1.66a mgGAE/100gm), LK1-0646984H (345.82±1.57bmgQE/100gm; 440.12±0.88b mg GAE/100gm) and RC-0648663 (69.375±1.3cmg QE (Quercetin equivalent) /100 gm; 106.79±0.54c mgGAE/100gm) respectively. The DPPH (2, 2-diphenyl 1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity of LK1-0646984, LK1-0646984H, and RC-0648663 was determined to be maximum at 63.25±0.43a%, 69.36±0.31b%, and 34.2±0.2c%. Experimental results revealed that vitamin B5 content was higher in LK1-0646984 of 6.52mg/kg in comparison to RC-0648663 (Ranjit rice, Chirang) of 0.96mg/kg. Vitamin B1 was found at its maximum (3.53mg/kg) in LK1-0646984H. Therefore, the germinated rice variety (LK1-0646984) was found to be superior in quality to the non-germinated variety based upon nutritional, functional, and energy assessments, provide significant health benefits, and gain importance in the present socioeconomic scenario.

Evaporation of flammable liquids droplets in an electric discharge

Published: December 2023

Evaporation of a liquid drop under the action of a high-frequency electric discharge is considered. The drops were suspended on a thermocouple and were in air at room temperature. The analysis was carried out under the assumption that the action of the discharge is thermal. It is shown that pure liquid fuel drop (ethanol and diesel fuel) evaporates according to the d2-law. At the same time, the rate of evaporation takes a maximum value depending on the distance to the electrode. Analysis of the rate of drop mass reduction made it possible to estimate the thermal power of the discharge, which also passes through a maximum when the electrode is moved away from the drop.
When evaporating emulsion droplets (50%/50% fuel/water) after the heating stage, pulsations of geometric size are observed. The drop size periodically changes near some average value with a certain frequency, which decreases with the time of "evaporation".
A physico-mathematical model of droplet heating under the thermal action of a discharge was constructed. The pulsations are explained by the evaporation of water globules inside the emulsion drop, the subsequent increase in the size of the vapor bubbles before the "micro-explosion" of the drop. The loss of emulsion material under the action of an electric discharge occurs mainly due to emissions during microexplosions. That is, the electric discharge leads to the dispersion of emulsions droplets with a high water content, in contrast to individual flammable liquids droplets.
A decrease in the water content and the power of the electric discharge leads to an increase in the period of pulsations.

Published: December 2023

Este artigo problematiza as definições atribuídas ao conceito de autonomia nos documentos oficiais que normatizam o Sistema Único de Assistência Social. A partir da pesquisa do termo no interior de normativas e orientações e da busca por compreender os sentidos atribuídos ao mesmo, apresenta um panorama das configurações assumidas pelo conceito no decorrer das publicações. Por fim, conclui que a autonomia, nos documentos oficiais, apresenta várias nuances, que vão desde a não apresentação de definições, passando por tentativas de delimitação marcadas pela imprecisão conceitual ou por frágil consistência teórica, até delimitações mais críticas e complexas. O estudo ressalta, ainda, a presença latente de um ideário liberal permeando os fundamentos da política de assistência social, que repercute diretamente no trabalho social com famílias, enfatizando a necessidade urgente de sua crítica.
