Published: March 2023

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 has become a global health threat resulting in a catastrophic spread and more than 3.8 million deaths worldwide. It has been suggested that there is a negative influence of diabetes mellites (DM), which is a complex chronic disease, on COVID-19 severe outcomes. Other factors in diabetic patients may also contribute to COVID-19 disease outcomes, such as older age, obesity, hyperglycaemia, hypertension, and other chronic conditions. Methods: A cohort study was conducted on the demographics, clinical information, and laboratory findings of the hospitalised COVID-19 with DM and non-DM patients were obtained from the medical records in King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre, Saudi Arabia. Results: Among the study population, 108 patients had DM, and 433 were non-DM patients. Patients with DM were more likely to present symptoms such as fever (50.48%), anorexia (19.51%), dry cough (47.96%), shortness of breath (35.29%), chest pain (16.49%), and other symptoms. There was a significant decrease in the mean of haematological and biochemical parameters, such as haemoglobin, calcium, and alkaline phosphate in people with diabetes compared to non-diabetics and a considerable increase in other parameters, such as glucose, potassium, and cardiac troponin. Conclusions: According to the findings of this study, patients who have diabetes have a greater risk of developing more severe symptoms associated with COVID-19 disease. This could result in more patients being admitted to the intensive care unit as well as higher mortality rates.

Published: March 2023

Lakes in cold and arid regions are extremely vulnerable to global climate change, and the study of seasonal spatial and temporal fluctuations of lake-groundwater chemistry is of major significance for water resource management and environmental preservation. In this study, we combined hydrogeochemical, multivariate statistical, and spatial interpolation methods to assess spatial and temporal variations of lake and groundwater chemistry in Hulun Lake during the frozen and non-frozen periods. The results show that sodium (Na+) is the most abundant cation in the Hulun Lake area. Bicarbonate (HCO3−) and sulfate (SO42−) are the most predominant anions in the lake, river, and ground water during both seasons. The higher Na+ + K+ concentrations in the frozen season were related to longer circulation time and lower renewable rate. The water chemistry of the lake was of the HCO3-SO4-Cl-Na type and that of groundwater in the east and west regions was of the SO4-Cl-Na and HCO3-Na types, respectively. The chemical compositions of groundwater in the non-frozen season were mainly affected by evaporation and concentration, while rock weathering, evaporation, and human activities jointly controlled groundwater chemical component in the frozen period. Based on hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) and principal component analysis (PCA) methods, Ca2+, NO3−, and SO42− were identified as the main controlling indicators of the chemical characteristics of groundwater and lake water. The increase of Ca2+ concentration in the center of the lake was related to groundwater discharge along the marginal tectonic fracture zone along the lake shores, which was the potential groundwater discharge area. The unconsolidated aquifer provides recharge channels for groundwater on the eastern side, which has a certain influence on the increase of nutrient concentration (NO3−) in the lake on the eastern shore. This research adds to our rough understanding of the lake-groundwater interaction in Hulun Lake, and provides a scientific foundation for the sustainable use of water resources, as well as the eco-logical integrity preservation in cold and arid regions.
Development and Application of a New Auxiliary Diversion Structure for Mountain Ship Lock: A Case Study of Wuqiangxi Lock in China
Authors: Qi Chunfeng , Pu Xiaogang , Peng Wei , Ouyang Qunan , Wang Danyuan , Liu Zhe , Wang Fei
Published: March 2023

Ship locks on mountain rivers usually experience difficulties owing to harsh flow conditions such as strong oblique flow and backflow, which significantly affect navigation safety and efficiency. To improve navigation conditions, a structural measure involving pile-foundation permeable dislocation-type diversion vanes, a new type of diversion structure, is proposed by analyzing the features and working mechanisms of the existing diversion structures. Based on a typical mountain ship lock—the Wuqiangxi Lock—model tests including various schemes were conducted to investigate the effects of the new diversion structure. The new diversion structure obtained better results than other existing diversion structures, particularly in terms of reducing the transverse flow velocity extremums. By controlling the diversion volume, stabilizing the deflection angle, and dissipating the flow energy, the new diversion structure could effectively weaken the oblique flow intensity at the entrance area. In addition, comparisons of its cost efficiency with that of a hybrid measure combining riverbed dredging and diversion piers was carried out. Moreover, its performance of practical application in the reconstruction project of the Wuqiangxi Lock was demonstrated. Based on the investigation presented herein, the new diversion structure is a promising approach for improving flow conditions at the entrance area of the lock approach.

Published: March 2023

During the winters of 2009/2010 and 2020/2021, observations were carried out at an eastern port of Liaodong Bay to examine the variations in sea ice thickness and atmospheric conditions. The daily ice thickness (DIT) and the cumulative ice thickness (CIT) are the two main observation items related to the thickness of sea ice. For DIT, the sea ice thickness gradually decreases as the temperature increases, and the freezing rate a is 1.48 cm/(°C·d)1/2. For CIT, when the temperature is −12 °C, the maximum growth rate of ice thickness decreases from 3.5 cm/d to 1.5 cm/d as the ice thickness increases from 0 to 20 cm. The residual method was applied to calculate the oceanic heat flux, which is an important parameter of ice modeling, and both the analytic model (Stefan’s law) and numerical model (high-resolution thermodynamic snow-and-ice model) were utilized in this work. It was found that the accuracy of the simulation results was high when the growth coefficient of the analytic mode was 2.3 cm/(°C·d)1/2. With an oceanic heat flux of 2 W·m−2, the maximum error of the numerical model approached 60% in 2010 and 3.7% in 2021. However, using the oceanic heat flux calculated in this work, the maximum error can be significantly reduced to 4.2% in the winter of 2009/2010 and 1.5% in 2020/2021. Additionally, the oceanic heat flux in Liaodong Bay showed a decreasing trend with the increase in ice thickness and air temperature.

Authors: Dos Santos Franck Cione Coelho , Silveira Claudio Todisco
Published: March 2023

Entender a complexidade e as questões que envolvem a gestão e o planejamento operacional na segurança pública, constantemente impactados por mudanças no ambiente, exige das instituições responsáveis um entendimento abrangente sobre o ambiente interno, onde estão as forças e fraquezas organizacionais, e o ambiente externo, referente às oportunidades e às ameaças. Na Polícia Militar do Paraná, devido à aprovação do seu primeiro planejamento estratégico (2022-2035), emerge a desafiadora fase de implementação, que será realizada por meio do desdobramento dos objetivos estratégicos, direcionada pelas políticas estratégicas e monitorada por indicadores de desempenho e metas. Os aspectos relacionados à atividade-fim da instituição requerem um diagnóstico organizacional que ampare um projeto de gestão operacional e seja capaz de identificar situações que possam impactar, positiva ou negativamente, as medidas necessárias e os melhores caminhos a seguir. Assim, este artigo analisa a ferramenta gerencial análise SWOT, as inter-relações entre seus quadrantes e seus eventuais reflexos. Tendo como objeto de estudo a gestão operacional na PMPR, a pesquisa apresenta exemplos práticos que podem subsidiar a construção de uma análise de ambientes, realizada por um grupo de trabalho multidisciplinar, que possibilite: maior conhecimento organizacional; maior conhecimento sobre o ambiente externo; identificação oportuna de mudanças ambientais; reavaliação da estratégia organizacional; e maior segurança na tomada de decisão do Comando-Geral.
Tráfico/uso de drogas por militares: uma análise doutrinária e jurisprudencial
Authors: Lins Joas Marcos Carneiro
Published: March 2023

O uso indevido de drogas assola toda a humanidade. E no meio militar também não é diferente. Em pesquisa nos tribunais, observa-se inúmeros militares sendo processados pelo uso ou tráfico de drogas. O presente trabalho analisou a doutrina a respeito do tema, bem como fez buscas em tribunais intermediários e superiores, visando observar qual o entendimento destes quanto ao crime militar cometido nestes casos, e qual a aplicação de pena. Em paralelo, analisou-se a Lei 11.343/2006, e as inovações trazidas por esta, e que não abrangeu o meio militar, por ser um direito penal especial. Questiona-se: teria o legislador olvidado do Código Penal Militar ao editar a Lei 11.343, não alterando o artigo 290 do CPM, ou a análise para tal foi diferenciada, devido ao caráter especial da lei penal militar? A metodologia aplicada neste estudo foi a pesquisa qualitativa, especialmente a bibliográfica, bem como buscas na legislação seca e legislação aplicada nos tribunais.

Published: March 2023

O presente trabalho tem como tema “Efetivação da mediação e conciliação nas serventias extrajudiciais como meio eficaz na resolução de controvérsias”. No decorrer do trabalho foi apresentado a mediação e conciliação como ferramentas e alternativas eficazes na resolução de controvérsias. Portanto, no decorrer deste trabalho monográfico, responde-se a determinados questionamentos, tais como: Como se efetiva o direito à cidadania e a garantia do acesso à justiça no Brasil? Qual a atuação das serventias extrajudiciais para a desjudicialização? Para elaboração deste trabalho será feito um estudo por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica, científica e documental, além de dispor sobre as doutrinas de Caio Cesar Vieira Rocha (2017), Carlos Alberto de Salles (2020), Fernanda Tartuce (2018), Fabiana Marion Spengler (2013). Por fim, conclui-se que a mediação e a conciliação são atualmente consideradas por muitos como a “chave/ferramenta” para abrir novas portas à justiça no Brasil, especialmente durante a pandemia de Covid-19. Além disso, com os avanços no uso de novas tecnologias e informações, são necessárias mudanças fundamentais, principalmente no que diz respeito ao acesso à justiça. Conclui também que a justiça não pode ser travada e que a cidadania não consiste apenas em mensagens políticas em prol dos direitos individuais, mas também na obrigação do Estado de fornecer condições mínimas para o exercício desse direito.
O uso de tradições na amamentação para prevenção e cura de doenças: uma revisão integrativa
Authors: Gomes Paula Cristina Silva , Rodrigues Ligia Cristina , Esperandim Viviane Rodrigues
Published: March 2023

Ao pensar no aleitamento materno, deve-se conhecer suas definições e classificações, adotadas pela Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS) e reconhecidas no mundo inteiro. Dessa maneira, a OMS não reconhece os fluidos rituais como exceção possível inserida na definição de aleitamento materno exclusivo. O estudo em questão tem como objetivo entender as tradições indígenas durante a amamentação ao redor do mundo para a prevenção de doenças. Para isso, foi utilizada a Revisão Integrativa de Literatura para o delineamento da pesquisa. Os Descritores em Saúde foram: (Medicina Tradicional) AND (Aleitamento Materno) AND (Saúde Indígena). Observa-se que o leite humano é utilizado não só como fonte de nutrição, mas sim também como remédios, dando ênfase na ligação entre dieta e saúde. Além disso, pode ter a capacidade de paliar a mortalidade infantil e, além do significado de nutrição, a tradição ayurvédica condensa a amamentação em um período de significado nutricional, médico e moral. Dessa maneira, as próprias crenças podem alterar o início da lactação e, por isso, pode interromper a amamentação se o bebê ou a mãe tiverem certas doenças. Além disso, pressões familiares e sociais podem também influenciar a lactação. Todavia, não há programas de inclusão teórico-prática com as crenças tradicionais mencionadas.

Introdução: A dispepsia funcional é uma desordem gastrointestinal crônica caracterizada pela presença de um ou mais sintomas como dor epigástrica, sensação de estufamento, queimação e saciedade precoce, atingido cerca de 20% da população, sendo mais prevalente em mulheres. O tratamento consiste no controle dos sintomas e a associação de metoclopramida, dimeticona e pepsina é bastante utilizada nessa condição. Objetivo: Analisar os dados internos de farmacovigilância do produto Digeplus (metoclopramida + dimeticona + pepsina; Aché Laboratórios Farmacêuticos S.A.), nos últimos 10 anos de comercialização, a fim de monitorar os relatos de eventos adversos reportados e realizar uma análise pós-comercialização do perfil de segurança da associação. Método: Relatos de eventos adversos relacionados ao produto Digeplus a partir do banco de dados da Farmacovigilância no período de 01 de junho de 2012 a 30 de junho de 2022 foram obtidos e agrupados de acordo com o sexo e faixa etária. Foi realizado também o agrupamento dos eventos adversos por seriedade (graves e não graves) ocorridos no período do estudo.Resultado: No período do estudo foram reportados 614 eventos adversos totais, sendo aqueles de maior incidência eventos não graves. Os eventos adversos considerados graves representaram 2% (13 eventos) do total de eventos relatados. A maior incidência dos eventos totais deu-se em pacientes do sexo feminino e no público adulto e idoso. Dentro do total estimado de 4.604.917 pacientes expostos com base no número de unidades vendidas no período do estudo, apenas 0,004% destes pacientes relataram eventos adversos. Assim, a incidência total de eventos reportados foi de 0,01%, índice classificado como raro. Conclusão: A partir dos dados do presente estudo, pode-se concluir que a associação de metoclopramida, dimeticona e pepsina é uma opção segura no manejo da dispepsia funcional, apresentando baixa incidência de eventos adversos e, quando presentes, são em sua maioria eventos de natureza leve.

Published: March 2023

Introduction: The critically ill patient is at high risk of developing delirium, which is an independent predictor of mortality, morbidity, increased length of stay, health costs and safety incidents. The incidence of this disturbance can reach 80% in this population, with severe impact on short and long-term outcomes of patients and family. Objectives: To analyse and summarise evidence regarding nursing interventions that are effective on delirium management in critically ill patients. Methodology: For this integrative review, literature research was conducted in electronic databases MEDLINE, CINAHL and Cochrane Database of Systematic, as well as other sources, from January 2013 to September 2021. Results and Discussion: The search retrieved 140 documents, 135 obtained from electronic databases and five from other sources. After assessing eligibility, 22 final documents were obtained for data extraction and analysis. The results show that the implementation of multicomponent interventions have greater benefits in reducing delirium incidence and duration. Non-pharmacological interventions, like early mobilization and family participation, also stand out. Nurses play a significant role in delirium management, and this review can help nurses to choose interventions based on clinical evidence, improving the outcomes of the critically ill patient. Conclusion: The implementation of multicomponent interventions demonstrates greater benefits in reducing delirium incidence and duration, with impact on other person-centred outcomes. Further multicentric studies are needed to prove unequivocal benefits of engaging the family of critically ill adults with delirium, and its benefits in their outcomes.

Published: March 2023

The presence of an immunodeficient state in women of reproductive age can lead to the development of comorbid pathology, including in the female reproductive system. Given the fairly frequent antisocial behavior of such women, timely diagnosis and early detection of lesions are not always possible or have significant drawbacks. Given the fairly frequent antisocial behavior of such women, timely diagnosis and early detection of lesions are not always possible or have significant disadvantages. Therefore, we set a goal to investigate how different the detection of pathological conditions of the female reproductive system is in the presence of HIV infection, chronic alcoholism, their simultaneous presence and their absence based on the results of cross-sectional studies. Autopsies of women with immunodeficiency of infectious and non-infectious origin were analyzed. According to the results, it was established that the presence of HIV infection, chronic alcoholism, and their combination is characterized by a more frequent development of pathological processes of an infectious nature, non-plastic remodeling, and non-specific inflammatory processes in the organs of the female reproductive system. Thus, it should be determined that female genital system requires close vigilance in the presence of immunodeficiency, taking into account the prevalence of this problem and its consequences.

Male infertility is a major health problem worldwide. According to a study of the WHO and the European Association of Urologists, the incidence of infertility is increasing worldwide. The male factor causes up to 50% of all cases of infertility in married couples and approximately 7% of men worldwide suffer from infertility. No cause can be found in approximately 30% of infertile men, and these cases are called idiopathic infertility. In many such cases, oxidative stress is believed to be the main causative factor. Oxidative stress, which is characterized by an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species and the antioxidant defense system, which is responsible for their neutralization, leads to damage to many cellular structures, especially phospholipids of cell membranes. The study is aimed at studying the adverse effect of lipid peroxidation on spermatogenesis in idiopathic male infertility. The study was conducted on the sperm of 56 men with normozoospermia and 30 men with oligoasthenozoospermia. The levels of malondialdehyde, zinc, fructose, NO-synthase activity and glutathione peroxidase (GP) in seminal plasma were correlated with sperm count and motility. Ejaculate malondialdehyde and NO-synthase activity were significantly higher, while zinc, fructose and GP were significantly lower in oligoasthenospermic than in normospermic men (p<0.001). A 1.8-fold decrease in the level of fructose in the spermogram of patients of group oligoasthenospermia, compared to the data of normozoospermic men correlated with processes of impaired motility and viability of spermatozoa. This was confirmed by the data obtained in the scientific work, in the form of a statistically significant difference in the average indicator of the quantitative content of fructose in the studied groups of patients. In particular, we found a positive correlation between the fructose content in the ejaculate and sperm motility (r=0.69), as well as a positive correlation between fructose content and the number of spermatozoa in the ejaculate (r=0.53). There was a significant negative correlation between malondialdehyde and NO-synthase with sperm count and motility in oligoasthenospermia. Elevated levels of malondialdehyde, NO-synthase in sperm, and decreased levels of zinc and GP in oligoasthenospermia may be responsible for impaired sperm membrane integrity and play a role in sperm DNA damage. The positive correlation of zinc with sperm count and sperm motility indicates an important role of zinc in spermatogenesis. Thus, these parameters may be useful in determining the fertilization potential of sperm in the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of male infertility, especially idiopathic infertility.

The violence against animals in Indonesia is a problem in society that is prone to occur. As creatures of God, animals also have the right to live and their welfare is guaranteed. Many crimes that harm animals are committed by individuals who prioritize their own benefits and do not think about the feelings of the animals who are victims. As a rule of law, the law has a role in protecting all parties, including animals. The purpose of this research is to explore what kind of protection is given by the state to animals and to enforce sanctions against perpetrators of violence against animals. This study uses normative research methods with statutory approach methods. As a result, research shows that the problem of violence experienced by animals in Indonesia needs serious attention. Furthermore, the laws governing the protection of animals need to be updated because they are not in accordance with the current situation in terms of the protection that is regulated and the criminal sanctions that ensnare individuals are too light and it is necessary to evaluate their implementation in public life.

Published: March 2023

Emergency workers are exposed to many different risks at the same time and possible consequences for their safety
and health may be manifold. Many emergency workers suffer from accidents and injuries in the course of their jobs, as
well as other negative health effects that lead to severe deterioration of their physical and psychological well-being. The
use of specific personal protective equipment (PPE) according to the given risks is of great importance in preventing
adverse health effects among emergency workers. This research aimed to develop, for emergency workers, a PPE
system, in a modular structure consisting of: i) modular layer 1: the inner layer, in contact with the skin/Underwear PPE,
with the function of sensorial and thermophysiological comfort and which ensures thermal protection; ii) modular layer 2:
the intermediate (basic) layer/Duty uniform – with the function of limited protection to the specific risk factors of an
unpredictable intervention action (thermal risks: convection heat, flame; risks from the external environment: liquid
splashes; mechanical risks: cutting, abrasion, etc); iii) modular layer 3: the outer layer/specialized PPE, with a function
of barrier against specific risk factors for fire intervention missions, extreme weather conditions etc. This modular
approach provides some advantages, including preserving comfort and flexibility until the intervention mission requires
the use of the next level of protection. This helps ensure that emergency responders are not in the position of choosing
between their safety or mission effectiveness.

The objective of this study is to examine the relationships between factors connected to the capability aspects of the
female working on the digital platform and the performance-sustainability of that employment. There are selected
3 groups of factors: first, professional learning and digital skills and capabilities of digital female workers; second,
entrepreneurial learning and orientation as a personal and corporate precondition for successful work online on a
platform, and third group of factors connected to the legal ecosystem issues, tax, social protection, and labour relations
as important frameworks to digital work sustainability. The dependent variable is defined as females from textile and
fashion design sub-sectors working online on the platform's sustainability, treated as performance. Empirical research
with 396 female participants working online on platforms connected to the jobs, tasks, and freelancing from textile,
fashion design, and other textile sub-sectors was provided in Serbia in 2022. They have by a five-level Likert scale
evaluated the level of the factors and their 16 statements' impact on the dependent variable. All three independent
variables do exhibit a positive relationship with the dependent one. The most significant influence has the professional
and digital skills and capabilities of female workers or their corporations. The paper’s findings can serve to remind female
digital workers that they cannot neglect the element of entrepreneurial capabilities and digital and professional skills in
their digital activities. The results can be useful for the government to enforce consistent, dynamic, and adjusted
taxation, social protection, incentives, and employment regulations for textile female digital workers and all others in
boosting employment within new flexible patterns and technologies. The research is further shown relative to the SDGs
on gender equality, digital divide issues, and pillars of social, economic, and environmental sustainability. The research

Published: March 2023

The COVID-19 pandemic, and subsequent shift to emergency remote teaching, amplified teachers’ and schools’ heavy reliance on digital tools, apps, and platforms. While digital technologies can aid and empower teaching and learning, they can also generate new challenges, harms, and negative outcomes. Teacher educators and teachers can develop critical and ecological dispositions and practices to help make informed decisions regarding the use (or non-use) of digital technologies. These dispositions and practices are critical for protecting and supporting students, especially those who have traditionally been harmed by the way tools, apps, and platforms are designed, marketed, and used. In this paper, we offer a roadmap for how the field of teacher education can spur and scaffold such critical examination.
