URBAN METABOLISM AS A BACKGROUND FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF CIRCULAR CITIES IN UKRAINE
Authors: Kononenko Olena , Dronova Olena
Published: May 2022

The paper goal is to investigate the sustainability of Ukrainian cities from the perspective of urban metabolism model. Based on the study of the features and advantages of the concept of urban metabolism for the development of sustainable and circular cities, the authors applied and analyzed the integral indicators of resource consumption, waste production, economic functions of cities, and also analyzed the institutional capacities, plans and environmental policy measures of 14 regional centers of Ukraine. The scoring helps to determine the ratio of the urban metabolism indicators of the selected cities of Ukraine and to identify the main imbalances in the consumption and use of resources, as well as to identify the cities that require the activation of institutional support for sustainable development. The application of such method highlighted that the urban metabolism concept works and can be applied in conditions of insufficient data and statistical information, as it is now in Ukraine. In research result it is clear that Vinnytsia and Khmelnitskyi are the most sustainable among the selected cities from the perspective of circular economy. Rivne, Kharkiv and Dnipro are characterized by balanced flows, but have higher rates of resource consumption and waste production. Poltava, Odesa, Cherkasy and Sumy require significant environmental policy adjustments in relation to resource consumption and waste management. The capital of Ukraine, Kyiv occupies an average position among all cities, which is enhanced by significant economic and innovative development and high level of public environmental activity. The lowest level of anthropogenic pressure is observed in Chernivtsi.

Sarcocystosis infection is caused by protozoan cysts of genus Sarcocystis spp. where S. hominis, S. heydorni (bovines) and S. suihominis (porcine) are the most relevant for humans because of their zoonotic potential. S. cruzi, S. suihominis and S. ovicanis represent the most pathogenic species for cattle, pigs and sheep respectively. This infection has a worldwide importance due to its high transmission; besides to represent a zoonosis, it generates great economics losses. The main diagnostic methods for this disease are artificial digestion, PCR, indirect ELISA, and compression analysis. It’s important to highlight few studies on Sarcocystis spp., especially the ones involving the pursuit of effective treatments to control the infection for both humans and animals, however, some studies have reported that treatments such as cotrimoxazole and albendazole with or without prednisone are effective in counteracting symptoms in humans, considering the lack of reports about Sarcocystis spp. prevalence in Colombia.
Individual cortisol response to acute stress influences neural processing of sexual cues
Authors: Stark Rudolf , Markert Charlotte , Kruse Onno , Walter Bertram , Strahler Jana , Klein Sanja
Published: May 2022

Background and aims

Problematic pornography use can be conceptualized as an impulse control disorder or alternatively as a behavioral addiction. Stress is an important trigger in addiction, but less is known about the neural effect of stress in problematic pornography use. Therefore, we aimed at investigating the effect of stress during the anticipation and viewing of sexually explicit material while considering person characteristics related to potentially being at risk for developing problematic pornography use.

Methods

In an fMRI study (n = 157 men, age: mean = 25.46, SD = 4.11) we used a sexual incentive delay task. A social stress test was used to induce stress in half of the participants. Salivary cortisol was repeatedly measured and person characteristics were considered moderating the effects of cortisol response.

Results

We found no group differences in the neural responses during the anticipation phase, but a higher reactivity to sexual stimuli in the dACC in the stress group. Acute stress activated a pronounced cortisol response, which positively correlated with neural activations in the reward system (NAcc, dACC) to sexual cues. Further, the individual time spent on pornography use moderated the effect of cortisol in some regions of the reward system (dACC, mOFC).

Discussion and conclusions

Our results suggest that acute stress related increases in cortisol can enhance the incentive value of cues announcing sexual stimuli. This might explain why acute stress is considered a trigger of pornography use and relapse and why individual stress response might be a risk factor for developing a problematic pornography use.
Vibration control and calculating inverse dynamics of the rigid-flexible two-link manipulator T-R
Authors: Khang Nguyen Van , Dat Dinh Cong
Published: May 2022

The dynamics and control of flexible link manipulators (FLMs) are increasing in industrial robotics research. In which the problem of inverse dynamics of the flexible link manipulators is a problem that has been studied little and has no general solution. In this paper, an approximation method is presented to calculate the reverse dynamics of the serial manipulators with rigid-flexible links. The linearization of the motion equations for a rigid-flexible translation and rotation two-link manipulator (manipulator T-R) is addressed. The vibration control and calculating inverse dynamics of a periodic rigid-flexible two-link manipulator T-R are studied. The Taguchi method is used for the design of gain values of the controller PD for the manipulator. The results of numerical simulation show the efficiency and usefulness of the proposed approximation method.

Numerical assessment of tip damage during pile installation in boulder-rich soils
Authors: Nietiedt Juliano A. , Randolph Mark F. , Doherty James P. , Gaudin Christophe
Published: May 2022

The number of incidents worldwide where pile tip damage has occurred during driving has accelerated following the growth of the offshore wind sector, and the expansion into areas with increased risk of embedded boulders or partially weathered soft rocks. The process involving pile–boulder–soil contact can be simulated with advanced three-dimensional (3D) large-deformation dynamic coupled Eulerian–Lagrangian (CEL) finite-element (FE) analysis. However, analyses of this nature are highly time-consuming and computationally expensive. The objective of the paper is to develop a generic framework whereby the potential for denting by a boulder can be assessed a priori. The study encompasses four main components to determine the magnitude of force necessary to create plastic damage of the pile tip and what combination of boulders and soil might generate such reactions during pile installation: (a) a parametric 3D FE structural denting study; (b) a parametric boulder–soil 3D CEL study, where prescribed displacements were applied to the surface of boulders embedded in sand; (c) a range of pile–boulder–soil 3D CEL analyses where a deformable pile and different boulder–soil combinations were simulated; and (d) centrifuge model tests involving tip damage from boulders. Simple relationships and charts have been established from the numerical studies and validated from experimental work.

Published: May 2022

An experiment to compare the effects of land use types on soil and macrofauna characteristics was conducted in a mountainous region of southwestern China. Soil physical and chemical properties and soil macrofauna were investigated in four land use types: natural grassland, mixed pasture of Dactylis glomerata L. and Trifolium repens L., mixed pasture of Holcus lanatus L. and Trifolium repens L., and cropland planted with annual Brassica napus L. and Zea mays L. rotation. The results showed that natural grassland, mixed pasture and cropping increased soil pH (23.0%–36.0%), soil organic matter (69.1%–73.9%, except the cropland with a decrease of 18.9%), total nitrogen (346.2%–738.5%), available nitrogen (389.9%–482.7%), available phosphorus (61.9%–303.6%) and available potassium (326.2%–481.4%). The taxonomic richness of macrofaunal communities was lower in the mixed pasture and cropped land than in natural grassland, with the Shannon’s index and Menhinick index being negatively related to soil organic carbon content. The mixed pasture maintained the abundance and diversity of soil macrofauna. The short-term cessation of utilization and management facilitated the restoration of soil macrofaunal communities. This study shows that pasture/grazing or leaving fallow for a year after cropping were able to better sustain macrofaunal communities in this mountainous region.

Teachers have an important effect on their students thus it is essential to examine this rather neglected area of research. Our aim is to identify Hungarian teachers’ (N=256) and teacher trainees’ (N=70) reading strategy use and reading habits in mother tongue and foreign language. The items of the Hungarian version of MARSI (Metacognitive Awareness of Reading Strategies) were adapted (Molitorisz, 2013), along with items on reading habits. Based on the results those in the sample use fewer reading strategies and read less in foreign languages. Mostly short texts and global reading strategies are preferred both in mother tongue and foreign language. This research is a step towards shedding a light on Hungarian teachers’ reading.

Teachers' Levels of Dedication and Commitment to Their Professions and Attitudes to Their Professions
Authors: TÜRK Ender Faruk , KORKMAZ Özgen
Published: May 2022

The aim of the study is to examine the relationship between teachers' levels of dedication and commitment to their profession and their attitudes towards the teaching profession. The research was conducted using the relational screening model, one of the quantitative methods. The sample of the study comprised of 477 teachers reached using the easy sampling method. The "Teaching Profession Engagement Scale", "Teaching Profession Dedication Scale" and "Teaching Profession Attitude Scale" were employed with a view to data gathering. In the analysis of the data, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, Anova Pearson r Correlation and regression analyses were performed by using SPSS. As a result of the research, it was determined that the teachers who participated in the research had high levels of professional dedication, professional commitment, and teachers' attitudes towards the profession. It was also found out that female teachers' professional commitment and professional dedication levels are in the sub-dimensions, and their professional attitude levels are higher than those of the males. It was concluded that the levels of professional dedication and professional commitment of the teachers differ according to their seniority, branch, and level of duty, howbeit bear a resemblance in terms of their level of attitude towards their profession. The relationships between teachers' professional dedication, professional commitment sub-factors, and their attitudes towards their profession were scrutinized. It was figured out that teachers' level of commitment to their profession, their level of dedication to their profession and their attitude levels are predictors of each other.
An Examination of the Relation between In-Service Preschool Teachers and Preschool Teacher Candidates’ Levels of Nomophobia and FoMO
Authors: İDİL Önder , ÇAKIR Recep , AKMAN Emrah
Published: May 2022

The purpose of this study was to assess in-service preschool teachers’ and preschool teacher candidates’ levels of Nomophobia (NO MObile PHone phOBIA) and FoMO (Fear of Missing Out). This study is a quantitative one in its nature, and rests on the correlational survey design from descriptive research models. We recruited a total of 310 participants in the study group. We collected data through the Nomophobia Questionnaire and the FOMO Scale. We found that both the in-service preschool teachers and the preschool teacher candidates had severe levels of nomophobia and moderate levels of FoMO. The in-service preschool teachers’ nomophobia scores did not differ significantly by age groups, but there was a statistically significant difference in their FoMO scores among age groups. Moreover, there were statistically significant differences between the in-service preschool teachers and the preschool teacher candidates’ nomophobia and FoMO scores. Accordingly, the preschool teacher candidates had higher mean scores in their nomophobia and FoMO levels when compared with the in-service ones. Based on these findings, new inquiries about/into teachers’ nomophobia and FoMO levels should be done to be able to make comparisons. Further, it could give fruitful results to recruit teachers from different branches. Another suggestion is to test teachers’ nomophobia and FoMO levels in terms of demographics, particularly respecting gender and marital status as well as culture so that the justifications could be made about the results.

Published: May 2022

The main aim of this research is to display research trends in studies on augmented reality (AR) in teaching English as a foreign language by using bibliometric mapping and content analysis. For this purpose, 64 studies in total published up to 2019 were accessed for bibliometric analysis. In addition, 49 articles published between 2007 and 2019 were reached for content analysis. The bibliometric mapping results indicated that related studies mostly focused on the effectiveness of mobile and ubiquitous learning. In addition, early childhood education, mobile learning, and gamification have become the focus of recent research. While Thorne, Azuma and Squire are the mostly cited authors in this field, Computers & Education, Educational Technology & Society, British Journal of Educational Technology and Computers in Human Behavior are among the journals cited most. Content analysis results revealed that academic achievement and motivation were the most commonly examined variables in the studies. These results revealed that most of the studies were grounded on quantitative research designs, especially experimental designs. Questionnaires and achievement tests were the most used data collection tools. While purposive sampling was the most preferred sampling method, there was an increase in the adoption of random sampling in 2011. Finally, descriptive statistics, T-tests, ANOVA-ANCOVA, and correlation analysis were mostly performed quantitative analysis methods, and content analysis was mostly used in qualitative analysis.

Differenze di genere nell’associazione tra mortalità e stato socio economico
Authors: Iacoviello Licia , Bonacci Marialaura
Published: May 2022

L’associazione tra disparità socioeconomiche e stato di salute è ampiamente consolidata e rivela una maggiore incidenza di malattia e mortalità nei gruppi socioeconomici più deboli. Ovunque nel mondo le donne vivono più a lungo degli uomini, anche se questo trend si è evidenziato dopo la metà del XIX secolo. Tuttavia, gli anni guadagnati non sono sempre in buona salute; il nostro Paese, nonostante sia tra quelli a più alta aspettativa di vita, mostra un numero ridotto di anni liberi da malattia e disabilità e la situazione è estremamente diversa negli uomini, nelle donne e nelle diverse aree geografiche, a confermare l’elevato livello di iniquità in campo sanitario anche in Paesi ad alto livello socio economico. Nello studio Moli-sani abbiamo indagato le differenze di genere nell’associazione tra diversi indicatori socioeconomici e il rischio di mortalità. In particolare, lo stato civile interagisce con il genere determinando negli uomini non sposati un rischio di morte due volte più alto rispetto alle loro controparti sposate.

VULGO GRACE: A AMBIGUIDADE DA PERSONAGEM FEMININA DO ROMANCE DE MARGARET ATWOOD
Authors: Alves Elis Regina Fernandes , Braz Ana Beatriz Santos
Published: May 2022

Neste trabalho, analisou-se a protagonista do romance Vulgo Grace (1996), de Margaret Atwood; nessa análise, verifica-se como essa personagem subverte algumas ideologias sexistas como recurso de subsistência. O trabalho tem como base as teorias feministas para o levantamento bibliográfico acerca do papel da mulher na sociedade e na literatura e das lutas por igualdade desde o século XVIII, apoiando-se em autoras como Woolf (2014), Beauvoir (1970), Showalter (2014), entre outras. Verificou-se como o sexismo potencializa a marginalização feminina, de acordo com seu comportamento na sociedade. Grace afirma não se lembrar do assassinato, porém, sua personalidade dúbia coloca em dúvida sua inocência ou culpa. A personagem era inferiorizada por ser mulher, pobre e, em tese, criminosa, sendo silenciada e tendo seu direito de defesa roubado pelo tribunal. Atwood promove uma reflexão acerca das mulheres da época, diante de uma sociedade que as inferiorizava, ao ponto de condenar uma mulher mesmo não havendo provas suficientes contra ela. Diante disso, Grace utiliza sua ambiguidade para confundir seu entrevistador e se proteger do sexismo que a cerca.

Identifying etiological pattern for postpartum complications
Authors: Kurbanova D. F. , Sultanova S. G. , Hajiyevа F. R.
Published: May 2022

Introduction. Postpartum complications hold one of the leading places in the pattern of gynecological diseases.

Aim: to study the clinical and laboratory features of developing postpartum inflammatory complications.

Materials and Methods. There were examined 150 puerperas at the Scientific Research Institute of Obstetrics and Gynecology (Baku, Azerbaijan) in the years from 2019 to 2021, who were subdivided into 2 groups: the main group – puerperas with developed postpartum complications (n = 100), aged 29.9 ± 0.64 years and the control group – puerperas with a physiological course of postpartum period (n = 50), aged 30.3 ± 0.86 years (p = 0.679). We studied the general and obstetric-gynecological anamnesis. The following parameters of the peripheral blood samples were analyzed: total leukocyte count, absolute and relative lymphocyte level, erythrocyte and platelet counts, the hemoglobin concentration, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and quantity of serum interleukin-6 (IL-6).

Results. It was found that puerperas of the main vs. control group had increased level of serum pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 (24.26 ± 0.48 pg/ml vs. 10.36 ± 0.62 pg/ml; p = 0.001) considered as an additional risk factor for developing postpartum complications. Regarding cellular immune parameters, they were shown to have decreased CD4+/CD8+ ratio due to blood elevated CD8+ lymphocyte count and decreased level of CD4+ T-cells. The development of postpartum inflammatory complications in the main group was associated with menstrual disorders in 81.0 ± 3.92 % of cases, first births – in 60.0 ± 4.90 %, threatened miscarriage – in 19.0 ± 3.92 % and gestational toxicosis – in 52.0 ± 5.00 % of the total cases. Some risk factors were associated with diseases of the genitourinary system (main vs. control groups: chronic pyelonephritis 24.0 ± 4.27 % and 10.0 ± 4.24 %, respectively; p = 0.048) and respiratory organs, most often represented by chronic tonsillitis and sinusitis (main vs. control groups: 20.0 ± 4.00 % vs. 4.0 ± 2.77 %, respectively; p = 0.007).

Conclusion. The course of the postpartum period in primiparas as well as women with burdened history of obstetric-gynecological and extragenital pathology is characterized by a high proportion of inflammatory complications. Biochemical studies assessing peripheral blood T-lymphocyte count and serum level of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 can be used as an additional diagnostic method to identify and assess modality and severity of early puerperal complications.
Personality of the Subject of Crimes in the field of Electronically Stored Information as a System Forming Element of Forensic Characteristics (Based on Russian and Foreign Sources)
Authors: Zhizhina M. V. , Zavyalova D. V.
Published: May 2022

The central element of the forensic characterization of crimes in the field of electronically stored information is the identity of the offender. In its aspect, it is possible to study the features of other elements, to establish their interrelations and interdependencies. Features of the somatic, psychophysiological and cognitive processes of the personality of the offender, the level of his skills in the field of information technology, the social environment and professional activity predetermine the choice of the method, means, the environment for the commission of the crime and the victim, as well as the mechanism of trace formation and localization of traces. At the same time, questions related to the personal characteristics of a modern cybercriminal remain open due to the high volatility associated with the rapid renewal of the technical and technological components of criminal acts. Today’s cybercriminals are often not grim lone hackers, but a well-organized and structured criminal group. The paper studies and analyses domestic and foreign literary sources, investigative and judicial practice aiming at filling this gap.
Good Faith in English Contract Law (Analysis of the Precedents of the Supreme Court of England and Wales)
Authors: Arakelyan A. A.
Published: May 2022

In the civil legislation of the countries of the continental system of law, the basic principle is the principle of good faith. It is this principle that is the most significant and directly regulates the legal relations of the parties, especially in the law of obligations, even if there is no indication of it in the terms of the contract. In the English contract law, on the other hand, there is no principle of good faith. In the article, the author analyzes the practice of the Supreme Court of England and Wales on disputes arising from agreements that include a condition on the good faith behavior of the parties. Despite the lack of statutory enforcement of the principle of good faith in the English law, recent precedents suggest that English courts are increasingly finding that good faith conduct by the parties may not only be expressly stated in the terms of a contract, but may also be implied in the contract, albeit in a limited number of cases. In each specific case, the courts, taking into account the wording of the terms of the contract, determine the content of the concept of “good faith” in relation to a specific obligation (clause of the contract), without extending this principle to the performance of the entire contract as a whole. The English courts hold that the agreement of the parties is paramount and broader obligations will not be implied by default.
State Legal Regulation of the Use and Protection of Protective Forest Plantations in Agriculture
Authors: Pysheva E. S.
Published: May 2022

The subject of the study is the state impact on social relations arising in connection with the use and protection of protective forest plantations, as well as the legal regime of these plantations. The analysis made it possible to establish that protective forest plantations can be located on lands of various categories, however, legal norms have been developed in more detail only in relation to lands used in agriculture. Relations regarding protective forest plantations are the subject of complex legal regulation. As a result, the legal regime of plantations has an intersectoral character, which is influenced by the category of land and the purpose of the plantations themselves. It was revealed that in the established norms on protective forest plantations, due to the role and importance of vegetation in the life of society, priority is given to public environmental interests. Particular attention is given to the study of ownership of land occupied by protective forest plantations. It is noted that a significant part of such plots is in non-delimited state ownership, not put on the cadastral register. The author concludes that the most effective way to solve the problems that have arisen in the field of agroforestry is the economic incentives for land users.
Skin Closure After Subtotal Aponeurectomy in Severe Dupuytren’s Contracture: Review
Authors: Idrisov Khasan K. , Rodomanova Liubov A.
Published: May 2022

One of the significant problems of surgical treatment of Dupuytrens contracture is skin deficiency after subtotal aponeurectomy. There are many options for skin grafting after subtotal aponeurectomy. However, there is no consensus on surgical approach to an altered palmar aponeurosis and on the choice of method for replacing soft tissue defects, taking into account the severity of the disease and the number of rays involved in the pathological process. The aim of the study was a comparative analysis of skin plasty methods after subtotal aponeurectomy in patients with Dupuytrens contracture stages IIIIV. The review analyzes various treatment tactics, including preliminary distraction elimination of contracture in the external fixation devices followed by aponeurectomy, as well as various methods of skin plasty methods formed after excision of altered areas of palmar aponeurosis and elimination of contracture. In the early stages of the disease, Z- and V-Y plasty are sufficient. In patients with severe degree of the disease, more complex techniques have to be used due to large skin defects that cannot be covered with local tissues. Each of the proposed methods of surgical treatment has its advantages and disadvantages. An analysis of the literature has shown that the most common method of soft tissue plasty after aponeurectomy is Z-plasty. However, as the severity of the disease increases, its effectiveness decreases. To date, there is no consensus regarding surgical approach to an altered palmar aponeurosis and the choice of technique for soft tissue plasty in the Dupuytrens contracture stages IIIIV.

It is the management of caries with biological approach rather than traditional surgical approach. It is to leave the traditional GV Black concept of ‘Extension for Prevention’ behind. Now, the present-day principle is ‘Constriction with Conservation’. This has been noticed that the concept of MID is still very unclear to the practicing dentists & even to the undergraduates. To understand the knowledge and awareness of undergraduates about MID a survey is important.

The aim of this study is –Firstly, to assess the knowledge about MID technique among the undergraduate students and interns from my dental institution.

Secondly, to also investigate whether the knowledge acquired by the students reflects in the form of a positive attitude towards practice of MID principles.

A cross-sectional survey involving 50 dental students and interns of my dental institution. The questioner is close ended. The questions are to assess the respondent levels of agreement regarding diagnostic, preventive and minimally invasive restorative techniques.

In this study it was found that interns had greater knowledge of MID than final years as they had greater clinical exposure.

There is a need to introduce evidence-based dentistry in the dental curriculum as well as establish guidelines for caries detection, diagnosis, treatment discussion & treatment performance.

Class II malocclusion cases are of interest to orthodontists since they constitute a significant chunk of cases they treat. Still, they're one of the most grueling malocclusions to diagnose and treat.

There lies a significant difference in the frequency of Class II malocclusion among various populations. The frequency of Class II malocclusion in India varies from 1.9% in Rajasthan to 8.37% in South India. Class II division 2 (Deckbiss) malocclusion is characterized by mandibular incisors positioned posterior to the cingulum of retroclined maxillary incisors. It usually presents with reduced overjet and increased overbite.

The treatment approach of Class II division 2 malocclusion is different for different age groups. In growing cases, growth modulation with myofunctional appliances is recommended but in adult cases, orthodontic camouflage or orthognathic surgery is the recommended treatment modality. When orthodontic treatment alone is ineffective or when facial aesthetics is grossly undermined, orthognathic surgery is the choice of treatment

In the present case series, two adult cases of severe Class II division 2 (Deckbiss) malocclusion were treated orthosurgically with BSSO. This case series demonstrates that treatment of Class II division 2 (Deckbiss) malocclusion in adult patients is a challenging task and a combined orthodontic-surgical approach can be used to obtain optimum aesthetics & functional efficiency.

Solar radiation can be converted into thermal and electrical energy by using photovoltaic thermal (PVT) system. This system combines the functions of a flat plate solar collector and a PV panel. PV surface and cells play an important role in enhancing the efficiency of PVT systems; that is, the PV efficiency decreases with increasing solar radiation intensity. PVT systems use a small amount of solar radiation to produce electricity and a bulk amount to generate thermal energy that warms the surface of PV cells. A medium that can effectively absorb heat energy from PV collectors should be used to increase the efficiency of electrical energy to a satisfactory level. In this study, a PVT system was fabricated and its performance was evaluated. An experiment was conducted on the PVT with water flow at a mass flow rate from 0.01 kg/s to 0.03 kg/s and air flow rate at a mass flow rate from 0.04 kg/s to 0.10 kg/s. This study highlights the thermal energies efficiencies when bi-fluid (water and air) allowed to flow. The optimal flow rate had been chosen and highest thermal efficiencies for each mass flow rate had been listed in which had been 77.31% has been attained at air and water mass flow rate of 0.06 kg/s and 0.01 kg/s.

Biodiesel is an alternative renewable energy source derived from plants or animals. It reduces greenhouse gas emissions mostly caused by fossil fuels and threatens the environment. Furthermore, biodiesel is clean energy from a mixture of fatty acids and short-chain alcohols, such as esters, produced from oil waste through the transesterification and purification of the dry washing process using magnesium silicate hydrate. This study designed the Response Surface Methodology with the Box Behnken Design consisting of 3 independent variables, namely magnesium silicate hydrate concentration, temperature, and production time required to predict the optimum conditions of biodiesel. This result showed that the biodiesel produced is 85-94.50% with a minimum yield of 85.171% at a 1.6748% adsorbent concentration, 65℃ operating temperature, and 10 minutes. Furthermore, the validation result with the T-Test is achieved by an average of 85.01%.

During the processes of copper production, post-reaction slags are formed and must be transported to storage sites as waste. The working conditions of the slag ladles are extreme, incl. due to the high reactivity of copper slag and the cyclicality of the operation of the slag ladles. The material of the vat walls is exposed to intense factors: chemical in the form of a liquid phase and temperature in the form of high gradients (thermal shocks). Which leads to a reduction in the campaign length of a single vat. The paper discusses the issues related to the operation of smelting slag pots depending on the insulating material. The aim of the work is to analyze the thermal interactions during the filling of the pots. The conclusions from the presented research are a proposal of actions aimed at extending the working time of the slag pots between repairs related to operation, as well as in terms of the total working time. The analyzes of thermal decomposition on the external and internal surfaces of slag pots with "artificially compressed" calcium milk Ca(OH)2 on the entire surface of the slag pots, which were carried out in the presented work, gave very similar results as during the modeling of steel slag pot. The use of a heat-resistant concrete layer at the bottom of the pots significantly reduces the damage zone and extends the working time.

Objetivo: Investigar as ações de educação em saúde realizadas pelas Estratégias de Saúde da Família da Atenção Básica de Monte Azul, Minas Gerais, sob a ótica dos usuários do serviço e profissionais enfermeiros atuantes nas equipes.Método: Trata-se de um estudo descritivo e exploratório de abordagem qualitativa, realizado com três enfermeiros e dez usuários dos serviços. Os dados foram coletados entre agosto e setembro de 2019 a partir de roteiros de entrevista semiestruturados e analisados mediante a Técnica de Análise do Conteúdo.Resultados: Os enfermeiros atuam como protagonistas das ações de educação em saúde. Incorporam o uso de tecnologias leves e duras nas ações e consideram os contextos dos usuários. Apesar da baixa adesão, os participantes ativos conseguem se empoderar e realizar o autocuidado. Embora haja possibilidade de um entendimento quase universal de que a educação em saúde é coletiva, os espaços individuais são privilegiados em relação aos usuários com necessidades específicas.Conclusão: É necessário refletir o modo de processamento das ações para se evitar o privilégio de técnicas mecânicas, repetitivas e que distanciam o usuário da equipe. Como aspectos positivos há os resultados de empoderamento e ganho em autonomia para o autocuidado entre usuários participantes das ações.

Introdução: Regime complexo de medicação, disfunção cognitiva, perda de visão e falta de compreensão favorecem a não adesão medicamentosa em idosos, podendo levar ao agravamento de doenças, aumento de mortalidade e gastos com saúde.Objetivo: Avaliar a adesão medicamentosa em idosos polimedicados em uma unidade de atenção básica e seus aspectos relacionados.Materiais e métodos: Amostra foi constituída por idosos que utilizam ao menos dois medicamentos de uso contínuo. Características sociodemográficas e dados sobre uso de medicamento foram coletados e o nível de adesão foi classificado de acordo com o Teste de Morisky-Green e Brief Medication Questionaire.Resultados: Dos idosos entrevistados (n = 40, idade = 71,97 ± 8,02 anos); uma média de 32,5% apresentou provável ou baixa adesão medicamentosa. Lembrar de tomar o medicamento, ler a embalagem e conseguir o medicamento foram os principais aspectos relacionados. Sexo, morar acompanhado e prática de polifarmácia não estão relacionados aos níveis de adesão.Conclusões: Percebe-se um importante índice de baixa adesão medicamentosa, sendo que os principais problemas detectados estão relacionados ao uso direto do medicamento. Assim, ações de educação e orientação em saúde quanto ao uso de medicamentos, aos idosos e sua família, podem promover o melhor benefício da terapêutica medicamentosa.
