Quo vadis multilateralismo sul-americano? Um estudo da relação entre a Colômbia e a Venezuela
Authors: Belmiro Camara Lisa , De Conti Pagliari Graciela
Published: February 2025

This research aims to assess how multilateral organizations of political coordination and regional security influences the relations of historically conflicting dyads, with a specific focus on South American security dynamics regarding the correlation between traditional dynamics and the presence of non-state actors and non-traditional threats. The purpose is to analyze whether the decreased tension that created conditions for the development of multilateral regional cooperation in security in South America also produces desecuritizing effects on the bilateral relations – tradition- ally tense and with limited results of cooperation and trust – that make up this regionality. Therefore, this study investigates multilateral organizations, such as UNASUR and its South American Defense Council, and the possible changes in the Colombian-Venezuelan relationship since the creation of these organizations. The research is rooted in a qualitative approach and the methodology is a lit- erature review on the topic. In addition to academic literature, official UNASUR documents and news published in the media were used. The conclusions point out that the influence of institutionalized multilateral cooperation was not enough to resolve, even if minimally, the historically conflictual re- lationship between Venezuela and Colombia. Also, when considering that the analyzed period cor- responds to the first ten years of operation of the organizations studied, there is a symptomatic element that questions the effectiveness of regional cooperation in politics and security since its beginning.

É inegável afirmar que o feminismo interseccional nos permite identificar e problematizar as consequências dos eixos de subordinação sobre os corpos de mulheres racializadas, que predominam em realidades distintas desde o período colonial até a atualidade. Compreender a ação desses mecanismos é considerar que a opressão que essas mulheres sofrem gera espaços de desigualdade, injustiça e violência que condicionam à invisibilidade e à inferioridade nas sociedades latino-americanas. À vista disso, o presente trabalho expõe um panorama de atividades desenvolvidas durante a realização do projeto de pesquisa "Tradução e Cultura: debates sobre gênero em uma perspectiva interseccional na América Latina" (2021-2023), considerando os estudos de gênero, feminismo interseccional e tradução, que culminaram com momentos de formação, pesquisa e produção acadêmica de futuras professoras de ELE do Campus Universitário de Castanhal (UFPA).É inegável que o feminismo interseccional permite identificar e problematizar as consequências dos eixos de subordinação sobre os corpos de mulheres racializadas, que predominam em diferentes realidades desde o período colonial até os dias atuais.

Authors: Araújo Míriam Guimarães , Alves Muniz Dr. Érico Silva
Published: February 2025

A comunicação é um processo multifacetado cuja concretização pode ser viabilizada por diversos vetores. Os alimentos são exemplos de elementos da cultura que possuem a capacidade de falar sobre a história, hábitos, costumes e identidade de determinado território e grupo social. Ao mesmo tempo que “falam”, os alimentos e seus processos são específicos pela expressão oral e pela transmissão que se dá de geração em geração. Este estudo tem como objetivo conectar teorias da linguagem com os relatos do “saber fazer” do queijo do Marajó, bem como apresentar simbolismos na significação das palavras empregadas no seu processo de elaboração. Para isso, utilizaremos como principais esportes teóricos a visão da Antropologia Linguística de Franz Boas (1911), dos Estudos Lexicais de Biderman (1996), dos signos de Fiorin (2010) e a relação língua-cultura de Stuart Hall (2016). Como método, utiliza-se a história oral e a entrevista semiestruturada, para registrar a ótica dos colaboradores, sobre o saber fazer do queijo do Marajó salvando a memória da cozinha tradicional marajoara, bem como suas representações simbólicas.A comunicação é um processo multifacetado cuja realização pode ser possível por meio de diferentes vetores.

Published: February 2025

O Programa Nacional da Alimentação Escolar (PNAE) trouxe oportunidades significativas de acesso a mercados para cooperativas de agricultura familiar no Brasil. O artigo tem como objetivo entender de que forma o PNAE contribui na gestão produtiva das famílias e na segurança alimentar. O estudo utilizou as seguintes metodologias: a) Pesquisa bibliográfica: através da análise de livros, artigos, relatórios: b) Pesquisa documental de materiais impressos e documentos relacionados às experiências da COOPROPAC; e c) Realização de entrevistas semiestruturadas com atores envolvidos no processo de venda e compra dos produtos mediante a chamada pública. O novo modelo de O PNAE reforçou algumas estratégias de diversificação da produção e estimulou os agricultores a plantar e diversificar mais a produção. Diante da   nova dinâmica da cooperativa, a assistência técnica precisa apoiar na organização da produção, na comercialização, na melhoria da qualidade dos produtos e principalmente, trabalhar a formação dos cooperados e gestores. A diversidade produtiva influenciou na alimentação das próprias famílias no campo e clientes da feira que passaram a incluir frutas e hortaliças nas refeições diárias.Palavras-chave: agricultura familiar, produção, mercados, diversificação, comercialização.

Published: February 2025

The application of the guided inquiry model is an alternative to increase student involvement during the learning process. This research aims to produce a learning E-module. The implication is that the guided inquiry-based accounting E-Module effectively boosts student motivation, makes learning more interactive and practical, and assists teachers in managing the classroom more efficiently. The implications of research on e-module development show great potential in enhancing the quality of learning by leveraging technology. E-modules can expand the accessibility of learning materials, enable more flexible and interactive learning, and support the diversity of learners' learning styles. This type of research is research and development. The results showed that the E-Module developed was feasible to use based on the assessment of material experts, media experts and learning practitioners as well as teacher and student responses. Based on the results of the gain test of 0.49, the learning E-Module was declared effective to increase students' learning motivation. The average value of the practicality test is 47.8 in the interval 42.25≤PR<52, meaning that the developed learning E-Module is very practical. While the results of the paired samples T-test (Sig 0.000 <0.05) concluded that there were differences in learning motivation before using the learning E-Module and after using the E-Module.

Published: February 2025

Objectives: Maternal heart disease is a leading cause of non-obstetric maternal mortality and morbidity, complicating the necessary physiological changes during pregnancy. This study aimed to evaluate maternal and perinatal outcomes in pregnancies complicated by maternal heart disease.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted from November 2022 to November 2023 at a tertiary care hospital. Ninety-three pregnant women with maternal heart disease were included and categorized into congenital heart disease, rheumatic heart disease, and other cardiac conditions. Data on demographics, obstetric complications, and perinatal outcomes were analyzed.
Results: Among the participants, 47.3% had rheumatic heart disease, 37.6% had other cardiac conditions, and 15.1% had congenital heart disease. Maternal outcomes included a 29% incidence of preterm delivery, and an 8.6% occurrence of fetal growth restriction, and 7.5% of mothers requiring postpartum intensive care. However, no maternal mortality was observed. Neonatal outcomes included a 30.3% admission rate to the neonatal intensive care unit and a 12.9% incidence of respiratory distress syndrome, with no recorded fetal mortality. Outcomes were consistent across the three cardiac disease groups, demonstrating the effectiveness of multidisciplinary care approaches.
Conclusions: Early diagnosis, individualized care, and multidisciplinary management are essential for improving outcomes in pregnancies with maternal heart disease. Despite no observed maternal or fetal mortality, high rates of preterm births and neonatal complications emphasize the need for targeted interventions. Addressing modifiable risk factors like hypertension and obesity is critical. Multicenter studies with larger cohorts are recommended to enhance management strategies.

The Effects of a River Closure on a Snook (Centropomus spp.) Nursery Community in the Rio Grande River, Texas
Authors: Getz Ethan , Trial Perry , Eckert Catherine , Anderson Joel
Published: February 2025

Snook (Centropomus spp.) support important fisheries in the Gulf of Mexico and populations are increasing in Texas. However, a primary snook nursery, the Rio Grande River, remains one of the most imperiled rivers in North America. In 2001—2002, low flows led to the formation of a sandbar and the complete blockage of the Rio Grande, eliminating exchange with coastal waters. Here, data collected by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department were used to determine how the Rio Grande closure affected juvenile and subadult snook and the estuarine community. Seine and trawl samples were collected prior to (1992—1997) and during (2001—2002) the closure. Snook size, seasonality and distribution were assessed. Additionally, multivariate analyses were used to describe community composition before and during the Rio Grande closure. Juvenile and subadult abundance was high and snook were observed year—round, suggesting that the Rio Grande functions as an important nursery. River mile (i.e., distance in miles from the mouth of the river) had a significant effect on snook abundance, with snook preferring upstream portions of the river with low salinity. Fish/invertebrate community results highlighted shifts in assemblage with decreased species richness and increased community dominance during the river closure, as well as decreases in abundance of species like white shrimp. Although snook persisted in the Rio Grande during the closure, community—wide impacts were observed and potentially impacted snook indirectly. As south Texas becomes more arid, managers may need to consider the likelihood of similar events affecting important sport fish like snook in the future.

Authors: Wolf Zane Robinson , Uribe Jeannine
Published: February 2025

Background:Although Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) students have used rubrics to guide assignments, few have created PowerPoint slide decks for professional presentations. Students might benefit from a rubric that standardizes PowerPoint presentations on final DNP projects.Objective:The objective of the study is to conduct a quality improvement project to evaluate a literature-based rubric guiding students’ PowerPoint presentations and the grading of final projects.Methods:Two faculty independently scored PowerPoint slides structuring final DNP project presentations for the literature-based rubric. They revised the rubric based on ratings and comments. Nine content experts rated the relevance of the revised rubric’s criteria.Results:Three criteria differed at a statistically different level on the literature-based rubric’s ratings. Interrater reliability was low. The rubric criteria were revised. Nine experts’ ratings showed criteria on the revised rubric were relevant; their comments stimulated revisions. The Survey Content Validity Average was 0.88, suggesting the relevance of criteria.Conclusions:The rubric requires additional revisions. Posting the revised rubric in the student resource course of the learning management system might assist students to construct PowerPoint presentations in DNP courses and for professional presentations.Implications for Nursing:The rubric was shared with DNP Project Teams. Faculty will continue to evaluate the quality of the students’ presentations.

Authors: Holt Melissa K. , Merrin Gabriel J. , Wyatt Olivia , Green Jennifer Greif , Gini Gianluca , Fogelman Phil
Published: February 2025

Youth who experience bias-based harassment report more adverse functioning than those who report peer victimization not targeted at identity. Yet, there has been little research aimed at understanding how different forms of bias-based harassment influence well-being. The current study adds to the existing research through its comprehensive assessment of adolescents’ direct and witnessed bias-based harassment exposures and examination of how exposures are associated with mental health and grades. We also evaluated three protective factors (adult support at school, peer support, and school belonging) for their associations with functioning after taking into account bias-based harassment exposures. Participants were 7,402 high school adolescents in the Northeast (Mage= 15.41 years,SD= 1.08). Results revealed differential associations with mental health and grades based on bias-based harassment types and highlighted the importance of support and belonging.

Purpose – This research has three objectives. First, it analyzes regional economic characteristics regarding economic growth and personal income inequality within a region. Second, it examines the pattern of regional income inequality in Indonesia. Third, it analyzes the correlation trend between regional economic growth and income inequality from 2012 to 2023.Methods – This research uses inequality Klassen Typology, Williamson Index, and Pearson correlation to examine economic growth and income inequality. The secondary data sources are Indonesia's Central Statistics Agency (BPS) for 2012-2023.Findings – Almost half of the provinces in Indonesia are classified as having lower economic growth and lower inequality, called inclusive economies. However, income inequality across provinces has steadily increased recently, especially from 2017 to 2023. The results also show a tendency for a negative correlation between economic growth and income inequality, even though this correlation is not statistically significant. Implication – The Indonesian government should improve the economy's productivity through investment, infrastructure and human capital development while maintaining the redistributive policy and social welfare programmes. Originality – This study comprehensively analyzes recent economic growth in Indonesia in correlation to personal and regional income inequality.

Interpretation of Gravity by Entropy
Authors: Fujino Seiji
Published: February 2025

In this paper, we attempt to interpret gravity by entropy. We first introduce generalized entropy, acceleration of its entropy and its partial entropy, and assume that generalized entropy can represent as a second-order polynomial by applying the idea of the logistic function to its entropy. Besides, we define the inverse of partial entropy as the gravitational potential. By applying these concepts, we attempt to explain that 1) gravity becomes constant values within small distance under certain conditions. It is possible that gravity has 5-states within small enough distance. There may exist anti-gravity which is the opposite of Newton's gravity among 5-states. Furthermore, within small distance, we show the possibility that the gravitational potential and the Coulomb potential can treat in the same way, that 2) the rotation speed of the galaxy does not depend on its radius if the radius is within the size level of the universe (The galaxy rotation curve problem), and that 3) the gravitational acceleration toward the center may change at long distance compared to Newton's gravity. We show that it becomes an expansion of Newton's gravity,and that the possibility of the existence of certain constants which controls gravity and the speed of galaxies, and that gravity may relate to entropy. It also describes the relationship between the Yukawa type potential and generalized negative partial entropy. Using equations proposed in this paper, it attempts to propose 11-types of forces (accelerations) including the gravitational acceleration g and compare the ratios of the fundamental 4-forces in nature (strong-force, electromagnetic force, weak-force, and gravity). Furthermore, it suggests that there may exist new forces, and that the gravitational constant G can fluctuate if entropy changes. Thermodynamics, quantum, gravity, electromagnetic and ecology may unify through entropy.

Two Cases of Statin-Induced Immune-Mediated Necrotizing Myopathy. A Rare Side Effect of Statins
Authors: Montero Furelos Luis Angel , Fernandez Peña C
Published: February 2025

Statins are effective drugs for lowering cholesterol and reducing cardiovascular risk. Rarely, they can trigger autoimmune myopathies like immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM), associated with anti-HMGCR antibodies. This condition may persist after statin discontinuation and requires immunosuppressive treatment. Despite these rare side effects, the benefits of statins outweigh the risks for most patients.
Mitochondrial Dysfunction: A New Hallmark in Hereditable Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm Development
Authors: Marcos-Rios Daniel , Rochano-Ortiz Antonio , Sebastián-Jaraba Irene , Fernández-Gómez María José , Méndez-Barbero Nerea , Oller Jorge
Published: February 2025

Thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA) pose a significant health burden due to their asymptomatic progression, often culminating in life-threatening aortic rupture, and the lack of effective pharmacological treatments. Risk factors include elevated hemodynamic stress on the ascending aorta, frequently associated with hypertension and hereditary genetic mutations. Among hereditary causes, Marfan syndrome is the most prevalent, characterized as a connective tissue disorder driven by FBN1 mutations that lead to life-threatening thoracic aortic ruptures. Similarly, mutations affecting the TGF-β pathway underlie Loeys-Dietz syndrome, while mutations in genes encoding extracellular or contractile apparatus proteins, such as ACTA2, are linked to non-syndromic Familial-TAA. Despite differences in genetic origin, these hereditary conditions share central pathophysiological features, including aortic medial degeneration, smooth muscle cell dysfunction, and extracellular remodeling, which collectively weaken the aortic wall. Recent evidence highlights mitochondrial dysfunction as a crucial contributor to aneurysm formation in Marfan syndrome. Disruption of the extracellular matrix–mitochondrial homeostasis axis exacerbates aortic wall remodeling, further promoting aneurysm development. Beyond its structural role in maintaining vascular integrity, the ECM plays a pivotal role in supporting mitochondrial function. This intricate relationship between extracellular matrix integrity and mitochondrial homeostasis reveals a novel dimension of TAA pathophysiology, extending beyond established paradigms of extracellular matrix remodeling and smooth muscle cell dysfunction. Mitochondrial boosters might be a new clinical opportunity for hereditable TAA-patients. This review underscores mitochondrial dysfunction as potential unifying mechanism in hereditary TAA and explores its therapeutic implications. Understanding how mitochondrial dysfunction intersects with established mechanisms of TAA pathogenesis opens new avenues for developing targeted treatments to address these life-threatening conditions.

Rural depopulation is related to several socio-economic variables, including services, transport, communication and employment, among others. This paper assesses the influence of irrigation systems as population fixers in rural municipalities. For this purpose, a national survey was carried out in which the inhabitants of rural municipalities were asked about relevant aspects of depopulation in relation to the presence of irrigation systems in the area. A questionnaire was drawn up, based on expert judgement, containing 45 questions with dichotomous and Likert type answers. The answers were analysed by studying the dependence of the answers on the presence of irrigation systems in the areas surveyed. The results show that rural dwellers are satisfied with life in rural areas, giving greater importance to health and education services, access to the Internet, job opportunities and transport. It is observed that irrigation is perceived as a positive element in both irrigated and non-irrigated municipalities.

NDV-based vector has been used as a veterinary vaccine and, recently also for human COVID-19 vaccine; however, data about the potential immune response against vector in humans is scarce, therefore, it is important evaluate levels of antibodies produced. The HI assay is the gold standard for assessing the humoral response against NDV in poultry serum. Here the objective of was validate the HI assay against the NDV-vectored vaccine to analyze antibodies in human serum. First, we standardized conditions in human sera before validation. The results from analytical performance: selectivity, sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value, as well as positive and negative diagnostic reliability, indicate that the assay is highly selective, as it allows clear discrimination between positive and negative samples. Regarding repeatability and inter-mediate precision, we demonstrated that the assay has precision to obtain consistent results and guarantees their reliability and truthfulness. Finally, the results of accuracy, linearity and robustness, indicate that the assay is accurate at the concentration intervals evaluated with a linear correlation between the low and high level and demonstrated that it is robust and consistent when the serum-antigen interaction times changed. We conclude that the suitability of the analytical method for its intended use is confirmed and guarantees the reliability of the results obtained under the established operating conditions.

Objectives: Preoperative identification of occult pleural metastasis (OPM) in lung cancer remains a crucial clinical challenge. This study aimed to develop and validate a predictive model integrating clinical information with chest CT radiomic features to preoperatively identify patients at risk of OPM.
Methods: This study included 50 patients diagnosed with OPM during surgery as the positive training cohort and an equal number of non-metastatic patients as the negative control cohort. Using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) logistic regression, we identified key radiomic features and calculated radiomic scores. A predictive nomogram was developed by combining clinical characteristics and radiomic scores, which was subsequently validated using data from an additional 545 patients across three medical centers.
Results: Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses identified carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), clinical T stage, and tumor-pleural relationship as significant clinical predictors. The clinical model alone achieved an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.761. The optimal integrated model, combining radiomic scores from the volume of interest (VOI) with CEA and NLR, demonstrated improved predictive performance, with AUCs of 0.890 in the training cohort and 0.855 in the validation cohort.
Conclusion: Radiomic features derived from CT scans show significant promise in identifying OPM in lung cancer. The nomogram developed in this study, which integrates CEA, NLR, and radiomic tumor area scores, enhances the precision of preoperative OPM prediction and provides a valuable tool for clinical decision-making.
Analysis and Evaluation of a Blockchain-Based Framework for Decentralized Rental Agreements and Dispute Resolution

Published: February 2025

Blockchain technology, initially introduced with Bitcoin in 2008, has evolved beyond financial transactions to revolutionize trust systems. This paper presents a blockchain-based model for decentralized rental agreements and dispute resolution (DRADR). By leveraging smart contracts and decentralized justice principles, the DRADR model automates rental processes, enhances transparency, and provides impartial mechanisms for dispute resolution. Our study offers a comprehensive analysis of this model through theoretical frameworks, smart contract implementation, and game-theoretic comparisons. We explore the potential of blockchain to address long-standing challenges in traditional rental systems, such as power imbalances, inefficiencies, and legal disputes. Key contributions include the development of two smart contracts, the integration of decentralized societal justice systems, and insights into the future regulatory impact of blockchain on rental agreements and dispute resolution mechanisms. This research paves the way for a more equitable and transparent rental market and contributes to broader acceptance of blockchain-based solutions in everyday transactions.

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed our activities in all sectors, especially education. The policy of physical distancing forced the Government to implement an online learning system from home (daring), one of the learning methods that utilizes technology. There was a slight increase in student capacity after participating in a collaborative online guest lecture on disaster management, a subject of the Study Program of Islamic Community Development, IAIN Kudus, by inviting practitioners from the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) to one meeting. In line with the curriculum of independent study on an independent campus, Guest lectures can realize the optimum result in increasing student capacity in disaster risk reduction through technology, which “Education and Training” can learn through online thematic collaboration. This research aims to determine students' increasing capacity in disaster risk reduction through it. It targeted 30 students of the study program of Islamic community development, IAIN Kudus, who have or are studying disaster management subject. For three days (6JPL), the lecture used application technology like Zoom and Quizizz application. This research used a quantitative approach with a T-test (comparing pretest and posttest scores on knowledge) using SPSS v26. The study results have a higher mean value for the posttest (73.20) than the pretest (34.06). The mean paired samples test result was -39.14, with a significant value of p <0.01. It shows an essential difference before and after online education and training in collaboration. On the other hand, it means to increase students' capacity for disaster risk reduction.
