Authors: Balwan Wahied Khawar , Saba Neelam , Zargar Javid Iqbal
Published: July 2022

Diabetes is a growing health concern worldwide and now emerging as an epidemic world over. Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycemia or increased blood glucose levels, resulting from insufficient or inefficient insulin secretion, with alterations in carbohydrate, protein and lipid metabolism. Type-2 diabetes is the most prevalent form, of the total diabetics about 90% have type-2 diabetes, which is characterized by post-prandial hyperglycaemia (increase in blood sugar level after a meal). Many medicinal plants are reported to have insulin-mimetic effect, modulation of insulin secretion and inhibition of carbohydrate digesting enzymes. The currently available anti diabetic agents include sulfonylureas, thiazolidinediones and alpha glucos idase inhibitors and are widely used to control the hyperglycemia. These drugs fail significantly to alter the course of diabetic complications. They have limited use because of undesirable pathological conditions and high rates of secondary failure. This it is essential to look for more effective antidiabetic agents with fewer side effects. Traditional medicinal plants having anti diabetic properties can be a useful source for the development of safer and effective oral hypoglycaemic agents. More than 350 traditional plants are used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus, which have been recorded. Only a small number of these have received scientific and medical evaluation to assess their efficacy. However, plant remedies are the mainstream of treatment in underdeveloped regions. This review focuses on diabetes mellitus and the role of plants in the treatment of diabetes mellitus.

Authors: Martin Denise , Viodres Silvia , Silveira Cássio
Published: July 2022

Pessoas em situação de migração forçada podem ser particularmente vulneráveis ao Covid-19. O Brasil se mantém na rota das migrações Sul-Sul e a cidade de São Paulo como referência. Este estudo qualitativo buscou compreender o cuidado de profissionais de serviços de saúde no contexto da pandemia, junto a migrantes internacionais na cidade. Entre 2020 e 2021, foram conduzidas observações etnográficas em serviço de Atenção Primária em Saúde (Unidade Básica de Saúde Sé) e entrevistas com dez profissionais de saúde, além de informações de coletivos sobre migração e saúde. Na unidade, utilizada por migrantes de diversas nacionalidades, o acesso era um direito garantido. A prática profissional evidenciava estratégias para lidar com esta população. O desconhecimento dos migrantes sobre o funcionamento do sistema de saúde evidenciou limitações para o cuidado. Durante a pandemia, a presença de migrantes na unidade continuou; o cotidiano dos atores do serviço foi modificado, com aumento da carga de trabalho, adoecimento e exacerbamento da vulnerabilidade estrutural de migrantes. Contudo, as mobilizações da sociedade civil com os serviços públicos e com organizações que acolhem os migrantes permitem construir caminhos para os cuidados em saúde.
Discursos educativos mobilizados na comunicação com a população na cidade de Florianópolis/SC durante a pandemia de Covid-19
Authors: Zancan Rodrigues Larissa , Wayhs Ferrari Isaura
Published: July 2022

A pesquisa busca analisar, de maneira diagnóstica, os conteúdos educativos mobilizados na comunicação com a população da cidade de Florianópolis/SC em meio à pandemia de Covid-19. Para isso, optou-se por uma análise de conteúdo em torno de informações disponibilizadas tanto pela Secretaria Municipal de Saúde – SMS quanto pelo Conselho Municipal de Saúde – CMS do município. Os resultados apontam para a tendência das informações disponibilizadas centrarem-se no detalhamento da logística e calendário de vacinação, sendo mobilizados poucos elementos informativos/educacionais. Nesse sentido, apesar de circularem mais contemporaneamente perspectivas educativas emancipadoras no campo da educação em saúde, as quais buscam considerar e desenvolver nas pessoas senso de responsabilidade por sua própria saúde e da comunidade, isso não se fez presente na situação concreta aqui analisada. Acreditamos, ainda, que o desenvolvimento de uma participação pública mais ativa, via CMS, por exemplo, poderia ter sido importante.

Authors: Cecille B. Delgado  , Danlyn Mae T. Villacero
Published: July 2022

Virtual world seems to be taking on the physical world, and the education as it seeks to be dynamic and relevant to the current trends in ICT is also going through changes and advances. In the field of science pedagogy for instance, virtual laboratories and simulations are gaining ground through its facets of cutting-edge “real-like” augmentation of science experimentation and concept formation. This paper explores the possibility of using this technology in the school science classrooms of developing countries such as the Philippines. The paper used the systematic literature method to identify the theoretical underpinnings, gains, issues, and potential of virtual laboratory integration to school science laboratory. The reviewed literatures were synthesized, and the researchers found out that majority of virtual simulations used in education rely on the theoretical embodiment of experiential and constructivist learning approach particularly in guided inquiry-based science pedagogy. The paper also listed issues in the integration of virtual laboratories which are cognitive overload; critical formative assessment applications on virtual set-up; and inadequate resources. It was then concluded that the virtual laboratory integrations provides both advantages and disadvantages to science learning, hence, such integration shall be done with careful consideration to accommodate both the gains and issues. The findings of the paper also lead to the recommendation to not make virtual laboratories as substitutes but as a complementary tool to improve science learning in an actual science lab. Virtual laboratory integration shall only be done to accommodate difficult and improbable science activities such as those that are in a molecular scale.

Impact of Globalization, Women's Empowerment, and Maternal Health in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA)
Authors: Ayenagbo kossi
Published: July 2022

Purpose of the study : Women's empowerment nowadays refers to encouraging women's feeling of self-worth, their ability to make their own decisions, and the right to impact their own and others' well-being. This research aims to look at the impact of globalization and women's empowerment on maternal health in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Methodology : The econometric method is based on a dynamic panel model that was applied to a sample of 37 Sub-Saharan African countries from 2000 to 2017. For a deep analysis, the sample is separated into four subgroups. The results for the African context were obtained using the GMM estimator, whereas the results for the regions were obtained using the LSDV-corrected estimator.

Main Findings : The study's findings show that foreign direct investment and women's empowerment have a significant impact on lowering maternal mortality rates in Sub-Saharan Africa's West, East, Center, and South. According to this study, globalisation is no longer limited to the exchange of goods and services between countries but also includes technological exchange, migration, and impacts on all sectors of activity.

Research limitation : The study's main limitation is that it appears impossible to determine the exact impact of liberalising these services on health. The lack of data on a long series is also a challenge in this study. Future research will need to consider the long-term implications.

Novelty/Originality of the study : This study is distinct from others in that it is not restricted to the general context of SSA. It captures the specific effect of various regions by employing econometric tools tailored to each region. This study adds to the empirical literature on the impact of globalisation and women's empowerment on maternal health in SSA countries.

Authors: Sudan Falendra Kumar , Ganjoo R. K. , Verma Sheetal
Published: July 2022

This paper has identified the impacts of climate change on fuel wood energy use in Drass, District Kargil, Ladakh in the Himalayan region and drawn the policy implication to improve the livelihoods of the people in the context of climate change using a case study approach. The study reveals that the major source of energy used and consumed in Drass is fuel wood. Almost all energy requirements for cooking and heating are met by burning fuel wood which produces smoke, cause air pollution, emits carbon dioxide and thereby contributes to climate change. Less than half of the farmers grow fuel wood in gardens or homesteads. Most farmers purchased fuel wood from the market. Awareness of environmental effects of using fuel wood is significant. Despite this, the exposure of women to indoor air pollution from biomass fuel combustion was significantly high. The use of cleaner energy was significantly low due to economic reasons as well as inadequate accessibility and availability. Forest resources are meager in Drass. Therefore, efforts should be made to increase forest cover with the stronger participation of local communities. The government sponsored schemes targeting efficient energy usage and energy insecurity should be implemented in letter and spirit through greater people's participation.

National Culture and Accounting Professionalism: A Conceptual Analysis
Authors: Edem Dorothy Aje Patrick , Mustapha Lateef Olumide , Edochie Elsie Ebele
Published: July 2022

Professionalism has become a trending issue in accounting practice because it accentuates the obligation of accountants in a nation. It spans all the facets of accounting including auditing, management accounting and financial accounting to mention but a few. In reality, accounting professionalism is influenced by numerous factors. Prevalent among these factors is the cultural construct of a society or nation. Culture affects accounting professionalism to varying degrees depending on the disposition of accountants within that nation or in the global scene. More so, the influence of culture on accounting professionalism could be either negative or positive, depending on the dynamism of the dominant culture existing in the environment within which the accountant operates. Besides, some uncertain expressions embedded in international accounting standards engender diversity in interpretation, application and communication of the affected standards, which bears on the consistency and comparability of accounting information. Hence, contingent on the professionalism in diverse jurisdiction, application of standards vary, depending on prevalent cultural inclinations. To this end, the conceptual analysis in this paper is consistent with the subject of accounting professionalism and how it is influenced by diverse national and international cultural constructs. Extant cultural models and dimensions, as well as measurements accorded to accounting values, are identified in this context. The paper therefore concludes through its review that culture exerts influence on accounting professionalism in varying degrees, depending on the level of exposure and interface with international elements and standards.

Authors: Dimitrakaki Ioanna
Published: July 2022

The present project dealt with the very important concept of perceived, organizational support, which involves 3 basic dimensions: perceived justice, HRM practices and the employee manager relationship.After a critical analysis of the relevant theory and the interpretation of the findings, in regard to the company "PAPADOPOULOU SA", the following conclusions were drawn: • The business be moving successfully, at the POS level • The business has a rich history (full of difficulties, controversies, etc.), which seems to be utilized both in terms of brand image development (communication messages, values that are displayed, etc.), but also internally. What is mentioned on its website is “on point”, in terms of the findings of • scientific management. It is one of the few Greek companies that can be considered to have understood the deep thoughts and consideration, of the modern scientific management and HRM. In the business, some suggestions for improvement are recommended, but it should be emphasized that its external success (market shares, profitability, etc.) is not accidental, as it seems that it has managed diligently its working environment / climate and the variables that are considered internal. The dimensions of performance are not so easily separated: the internal dimensions are considered as important as the external ones, as it has been found in a multitude of researches that successful companies are favored by the adoption of a long-term orientation. This is the subject of this paper, in essence. The perceived support that an employee perceives may not "mean much" to the average executive of a business, but it seems to be an extremely important concept at the academic level.Business that focus on similar, "soft" concepts seem to be gradually gaining ground, surviving, and gaining competitive advantage through a series of ways that primarily address the ability to create, transfer, and utilize organizational knowledge.

Authors: TOPU Mustafa , TİRYAKİ İskender
Published: July 2022

This study has been conducted to determine genetic diversity of the common vetch lines and cultivars by using pairwise combinations of universal rice primers (URPs). A total number of 37 URP marker pairs were tested and twenty of those provided amplicons in the common vetch genome. The pairs of amplified URP markers provided a total of 83 bands and 62 of them were determined as polymorphic and were scattered to the whole genome. The average polymorphism rate of the primers was calculated as 73.5% while the polymorphism information content (PIC) values have ranged from 0.11 to 0.47 with an average of 0.24. The phylogenetic tree constructed based on UPGMA analysis provided three main clades. Two-dimensional plot of PCA and the UPGMA analysis showed that the URP markers successfully distinguished the genetic material based on their genetic origin. In conclusion, this study revealed that the use of pairwise combinations of URP markers could have a better power to reveal the level of polymorphism in plant genome.

Published: July 2022

Today, biological invasion is one of the leading threats to biodiversity and is an issue that is gaining more and more importance. In recent years, molecular techniques have been widely used in the identification and monitoring of invasive species in many parts of the world. This study aimed to detect the infested species, Carassius auratus, in Atatürk Dam Lake and to reveal the population status. For these purposes, 10 Carassius auratus specimens were randomly selected from Atatürk Dam Lake. After DNA isolation of the selected samples, mtDNA COI and cyt b gene regions were sequenced and analyzed. In this study, sequence analyzes of individuals belonging to the C. auratus species living in Atatürk Dam Lake were performed for the first time using mtDNA COI and cyt b markers. Analyzed sequence results were compared with databases and it was concluded that the results obtained for both mtDNA markers were compatible. No other variation was observed. When the results are evaluated as a whole, it is possible to say that this species has spread recently. In future studies, it is recommended to determine the invasive species populations that are intensely found in Atatürk Dam Lake and other lakes and to determine the necessary strategies to combat these invasive species

Freud a énoncé ce principe de la technique analytique : l’analyse doit s’effectuer autant que possible dans un état de refus, d’abstinence. C’est ce que Lacan a traduit par un « ne pas répondre à la demande ». Or, en élaborant la notion de demande et la question de sa satisfaction, il en est venu à montrer que l’analyste est en devoir de satisfaire la demande qui mérite d’être appelée fondamentale.

Erreurs sur le sexe. Quelques remarques sur le transsexualisme de l’enfant
Authors: Pellion Frédéric
Published: July 2022

Dans la mesure où la « sexuation » est un processus qui commence dès avant la naissance pour ne se parachever, si elle se parachève jamais, qu’à l’âge adulte, il n’est sans doute pas abusif de parler d’une « clinique de la sexuation » chez l’enfant. Bien sûr sans ignorer les difficultés conceptuelles qui se posent alors, au regard, en particulier, du polymorphisme de la sexualité infantile et de ladite « phase de latence ». Le constat, avéré depuis des décennies, qu’il existe d’authentiques situations de transsexualisme chez certains enfants semble une bonne entrée en matière pour aborder ces questions.

Il s’agira d’interroger ce qu’il en est de l’urgence dans la cité pour le sujet de l’inconscient, et du rapport particulier que ce dernier entretient avec le temps dans les moments d’urgence subjective.
Une urgence fondatrice
Authors: Pamart Éliane
Published: July 2022

Freud et Lacan ont subverti l’un après l’autre le savoir médical et psychiatrique en faisant valoir l’urgence à recueillir le dire des patients, cette dit-mension de l’inconscient qui a permis la naissance de la psychanalyse voici plus de 100 ans.
Écrire, filmer, raconter sa vie d’enseignante : de l’expression de soi à la valorisation professionnelle
Authors: Rigaudière Angélica , Connan Pierre-Yves
Published: July 2022

Pour saisir la manière dont les enseignants s’exposent sur le web, nous observons trois objets aux spécificités sémio-discursives variées. Le documentaire radiophonique Journal d’une jeune prof met en voix la vie des enseignants et des élèves d’un collège difficile. Le blog Je veux être maîtresse : journal d’une jeune prof passionnée trace le parcours professionnel d’une enseignante. Le vlog Entrez dans ma classe illustre la relation que l’enseignante entretient avec l’espace matériel de la classe.
« Mon 13 novembre ». De la consultation des médias à la représentation personnelle d’un traumatisme collectif
Authors: Chagnoux Marie , Seoane Annabelle
Published: July 2022

La stupeur et l’effroi dans lequel les médias ont plongé leurs publics lors des attentats du 13 novembre ont parfois aboli les distances géographiques ou symboliques en faisant émerger une nation entière de « témoins par procuration médiatique ». À partir d’un extrait du corpus de témoignages du Programme 13-Novembre, nous proposons d’étudier quelques pistes pour montrer comment le suivi médiatique de ces attentats a forgé une représentation intériorisée et égocentrée d’un événement traumatique national.
Préserve-moi ! Des journaux intimes à ceux de confinement dans les archives du Web
Authors: Schafer Valérie
Published: July 2022

Souvent éphémères, les pages personnelles, les blogs et aujourd’hui les écritures de soi et intimes sur les réseaux socio-numériques, jusqu’aux journaux de confinement nés lors de la crise COVID, sont toutefois partiellement préservés dans les archives du Web. En explorant leur conservation, notamment au sein de la Bibliothèque nationale de France, et les limites et défis que posent ces sources nativement numériques, il s’agit de saisir les enjeux de préservation de ces contenus personnels, intimes, littéraires, vernaculaires, multimédias, mais aussi les possibilités de recherche qu’ils offrent pour l’histoire du numérique et de ses cultures.
Un soi transitionnel. La vie américaine des agents de centres d’appels en Inde
Authors: Clemens Iris
Published: July 2022

Sur la base du film documentaire « John and Jane » d’A. Ahluwalia en 2005, et se référant à la différenciation de la personne, du corps et de la conscience décrite par Niklas Luhmann, cet article analyse la double vie d’employés de centres d’appels en Inde, des représentants de la classe moyenne qui n’ont jamais voyagé à l’étranger. Pourtant, la nuit, ils deviennent pour leur besoin de leurs clients des pseudo-Américains. Ceci affecte leur identité, notamment la relation à la langue, à la culture et jusqu’au corps américain que ces employés revendiquent et s’approprient, à des degrés divers.
“A medicação eu consegui bem fácil. A maior dificuldade tem sido a internação”: crise, suspeição e biodesigualdades na (des)judicialização da saúde
Authors: Pedrete Leonardo do Amaral
Published: July 2022

O recurso ao sistema de justiça potencialmente constitui possibilidades de lidar com experiências de enfermidades crônicas. No entanto, sugiro que os espaços de negociação em torno do que é devido pelo Estado em matéria de saúde têm se mostrado, ao longo dos anos, cada vez menos fluidos e mais constrangidos pela criação de infraestruturas burocráticas (na forma de protocolos, quesitos, laudos, perícias, comitês e assessorias especializadas, por exemplo). Mais, identifico um cenário de suspeição generalizada e desconfiança mútua que aparece como elemento fundamental na circulação de discursos, práticas, estruturas institucionais e tecnicalidades voltadas à burocratização das vias judiciais e à evitação (ou desjudicialização) das demandas, cujos efeitos não são homogêneos em relação a diferentes grupos e, especialmente, determinadas demandas de saúde. Com base em achados de uma etnografia sobre a luta de pessoas que convivem com enfermidades crônicas em situações de incapacidade e deficiência em busca de acesso a saúde, no universo da região central do Rio Grande do Sul, discuto a produção de biodesigualdades em um modelo farmacêutico e cada vez mais burocratizado de judicialização da saúde no Brasil.
Stories of women on consumption and morality in contexts of vulnerability
Authors: Menasche Renata , Machado Carmen Janaina , Lamas Gabriela Richter
Published: July 2022

Based on research data obtained from two different contexts of social vulnerability in Brazil, this paper will analyze consumption strategies and how they are perceived. The leading figures of these stories are female peasants, beneficiaries of the Bolsa Família Program and women living in urban areas who had their income reduced because of the COVID-19 pandemic and had therefore to join the Boleto+1 Facebook group. Among female farmers, the ethnographic research was conducted between 2016 and 2018, while the research with Boleto+1 members was carried out in 2020, in the first months of the pandemic, via digital platforms.
Fotografando o impossível:Ritos e imagens da morte produzidas durante a pandemia de Covid-19 no Brasil
Authors: Sanfelicio Marianna Knothe
Published: July 2022

Este trabalho analisa a produção de fotografias sobre as mortes causadas pela pandemia de Covid-19 no Brasil. Partindo do corpo do morto, que durante a pandemia se tornou interdito devido às proibições impostas pelo caráter viral do coronavírus, tenta-se compreender de que maneiras os ritos funerários que envolvem tais corpos puderam continuar existindo neste contexto. Com os corpos dos mortos interditos, de que modo as fotografias conseguem ajudar na construção do universo simbólico dos ritos funerários? O que foi encontrado sugere que as imagens jornalísticas ganham destaque como local possível da existência dos ritos que a pandemia interditou – um local que existe apesar de tudo, dentro das impossibilidades dadas pelo momento.
“A melhor vista da felicidade”: o consumo visual da paisagem da Orla Conde como legado do Porto Maravilha na cidade do Rio de Janeiro
Authors: Barbosa Antônio Agenor , Cáceres Luz Stella Rodríguez
Published: July 2022

Este artigo pretende enfocar a paisagem do percurso da “Orla Conde” que margeia o renovado porto da cidade do Rio de Janeiro. A partir da observação participante, análises de discursos, retóricas publicitárias e imagéticas, nos permitimos analisar a enorme distância entre conceitos usados no contexto das reformas urbanas empreendidas e o que de fato há para se experienciar na paisagem circundante. Tal percurso tem como ponto de chegada uma recém inaugurada roda-gigante, cujo slogan publicitário nos convida para apreciar "a melhor vista da felicidade". Nosso recurso analítico é a descrição e a prática do percurso proposto e, ao fazê-lo, nos interrogamos sobre as possibilidades de flanar e de se encantar no espaço linear que propõe o trajeto fixo, apoiado numa linha projetual que não nos convida a desvios nem encruzilhadas e que nos conduz para um artefato de fantasia e de entretenimento direcionado apenas para o consumo visual da paisagem.
Mobilidade urbana saudável no cruzamento das avenidas identitárias: experiências móveis de mulheres pretas
Authors: Silveira Luísa Horn de Castro , Borda Bibiana Valiente Umann , Machry Sabrina da Rosa , Vargas Julio Celso Borello
Published: July 2022

A mobilidade é componente essencial da vida nas cidades. Os perfis e as condições de deslocamento são afetados por múltiplas variáveis e têm sido percebidos como pauta importante na promoção da saúde. Uma pesquisa realizada em três capitais brasileiras entre 2016 e 2019 revelou dados importantes que colocam a raça como elemento central da discussão de mobilidade intragênero. As diferenças encontradas nos padrões de deslocamento de mulheres de diferentes raças, em interlocução com os relatos de duas mulheres pretas entrevistadas, operam como disparador de uma discussão sobre as “escolhas” de mobilidade, propondo uma problematização do modelo de "mobilidade saudável" pautado na lógica eurocentrada. Espera-se contribuir para os debates sobre mobilidade urbana e gênero na perspectiva decolonial, apontando para a necessidade de políticas urbanas atentas às particularidades das práticas de mobilidade da mulher preta, reconhecendo as potencialidades das suas formas de transitar, ressaltando a importância de valorizar e favorecer suas experiências.

Published: July 2022

BACKGROUND:

Plerixafor is used for patients at risk of Stem cell mobilization failure based on clinical factors or low peripheral blood CD34 count. It is also added upfront to any mobilization irrespective of risk factor, but the cost-effectiveness of the approach is an issue. Data on plerixafor in different settings of autologous hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) collection from India are scant. We are hereby reporting the experience of failure/success of mobilization rate and few important significant variables (CD34+ dosage, failed collection) between plerixafor and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor alone groups among autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT) at our institute.

METHODS:

This was a record-based single-center study on patients who underwent aHSCT from January 2013 to June 2019 at a tertiary care hospital. Descriptive statistics were used for baseline characteristics, transplant-related factors, and peritransplant outcomes. All statistical analyses were performed at the 5% significance level.

RESULTS:

During the study duration, a total of 96 patients had undergone autologous hematopoietic stem cell collection (aHSCC), all by peripheral blood stem cell harvest, requiring 131 apheretic collections. Of the total 131 collections in 96 patients, plerixafor was used in 63 apheresis collections (48% of total pheresis) in 40 patients. Among the 40 patients who were administered plerixafor to augment the collection, 34 patients had upfront use of plerixafor. We did not observe any significant adverse event related to plerixafor use.

CONCLUSION:

A rational utilization of plerixafor can facilitate the process and logistics of aHSCC outcome.
