Sanayi Devrimi ile birlikte çalışma koşulları değişmiştir. Kol gücünün yerini makineler almış, toplumsal, sosyal ve ekonomik alanda radikal değişiklikler yaşanmıştır. Hayat standardını, sosyo-ekonomik şartları ve çalışma koşullarını tamamen değiştiren Sanayi Devrimi dünyadaki dengeleri de değiştirmiştir. Sanayileşmenin yeni bir güç olarak ortaya çıkmasıyla yeni bir sınıf da doğmuştur. Üretimin ortaya çıkmasında son derece önemli bir paya sahip olan işçi sınıfı zamanla gücünün farkına varmış, yasal hakları için mücadele etmiştir. Devrime kadar köylerde yaşayan halk çalışmak için kasabalara ve şehirlere göç etmiştir. Şehirlerdeki sosyo-ekonomik denge bozulmuş, toplumsal sınıf farklılıkları belirginleştirmiştir. Dünyayı derinden etkileyen Sanayi Devrimi sömürgecilik arayışını başlatmıştır. Sanayisini tamamlayan ülkelerde hammadde ve pazar ihtiyacı ortaya çıkmış, bu durum dünya ticaret dengesini değiştirmiştir. Devletlerin iktisadî yapısında, iş gücünde e ekonomik yapısında değişim gerçekleşmiştir. Ekonomik değişimle beraber işçilerin sınıfsal davranışlar geliştirdiği bir dönem başlamıştır. Sanayi Devriminin etkileri Osmanlı Devletinde de hissedilmeye başlayınca işçi sınıfı ortaya çıkmıştır. II. Meşrutiyet’in ilanından sonra sermayedara karşı işçi sınıfı kitlesel eylemler gerçekleştirmiştir. Grevlerin hızla artmasına karşın devlet işçi sınıfını kontrol altına almak için Tatil-i Eşgal kanununu yürürlüğe koymuştur. Bu makalede Osmanlı işçi sınıfının ortaya çıkmasıyla devletin yürürlüğe koyduğu kısıtlayıcı tedbirler tartışılmıştır. Betimleyici araştırma tekniğinin kullanıldığı makalede işçilerin yaşadığı sorunlar ele alınmış, elde edilen bulguya göre; işçilere uygulanan kısıtlamalar ve yaptırımlar işçi sınıfının hak mücadelesini engelleyememiştir.

Published: October 2024

1841 yılında kurulan Punch Dergisi, Birleşik Krallık’ın iç ve dış politikasını mizahi bir dille okurlarına yansıtmış, uluslararası siyasette de pek çok ülke ve millete karikatürlerinde yer vermiştir. Dergi, Kurtuluş Savaşı’nda da Türkiye’de yaşanan olaylara odaklanmış ve savaşın seyrine göre savaşın taraflarına ilişkin okuyucularına çeşitli karikatürler paylaşmıştır. Punch, kimi zaman Birleşik Krallık’ın propaganda aracı gibi hizmet ederek, Birleşik Krallık kamuoyunun krallık çıkarları doğrultusunda şekillenmesine çalışmıştır. Bu açıdan Punch’ın Kurtuluş Savaşı’na yönelik sunumunun ortaya konulması, Kurtuluş Savaşı sürecinde Birleşik Krallık kamuoyunun Türkiye’ye ilişkin ne yönde şekillendirilmeye çalışıldığına ışık tutulması bakımından önem taşımaktadır. Çalışmada Punch’ın Kurtuluş Savaşı sürecinde yayınladığı karikatürler üzerinden savaşa yönelik bakışının ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmada göstergebilim yöntemi kullanılmış ve Charles William Morris’in göstergebilim modelinde yer alan sözdizimsel, anlambilimsel ve edimbilimsel kavramlar üzerinden karikatürler analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada Punch’ın Kurtuluş Savaşı’nın Türkiye lehine seyrine göre Türkiye’ye bakışının olumlu yönde değiştiği, buna karşılık Yunanistan’a mesafeli yaklaştığı bulgularına ulaşılmıştır. Elde edilen bu bulgular üzerinden Birleşik Krallık’ın Kurtuluş Savaşı sürecindeki Türkiye politikasındaki değişimin doğrudan Punch Dergisi’nin karikatürlerine yansıtıldığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır
APPROACH TO IMPROVING THE TERMINOLOGICAL SYSTEM OF ELECTRONIC WARFARE
Authors: Ischenko D. , Fedorchuk D. , Maryshchuk L.
Published: October 2024

The article substantiates the relevance of improving the terminological and conceptual base to ensure coordinated activities among military management bodies, troops (forces), scientific institutions, developers, and manufacturers – all participants in the processes of acquiring the necessary capabilities. Based on the analysis of the regulatory framework in the subject area, the field of military standardization, and relevant domestic and foreign publications of partner countries and NATO members, the need for the development of a scientifically grounded approach is determined. This approach is expected to ensure the effectiveness of the application of the standard for its intended purpose in acquiring the necessary capabilities. The study addresses the pressing issue of achieving an optimal degree of activity organization in the subject area through the application of a military standard. The requirement for a military standard is substantiated, which stipulates that in the direction of acquiring capabilities, the effectiveness of the military standard should be no lower than permissible, as this ensures the fulfillment of tasks as intended. A procedure for applying the principle of evaluating the achievement of the necessary effectiveness of a military standard by assessing the elements of complex terminological systems based on their contribution to the effectiveness of higher-order systems is proposed.
The military terminological standard, in its main substantive part (terms and definitions), is considered a complex set of subsystems – terminological systems with lower-order elements – term entries (a term with its definition), using which information exchange in the subject area carried out regarding the development and production (procurement) of weapons and military equipment, personnel and troops (forces) training, and the creation of new (or improvement of existing) organizational and staff structures and the regulatory framework for acquiring necessary capabilities. The article describes in a formalized manner the procedure that involves forming a judgment about the inclusion of a specific term system in the military standard, which is examined for the presence of necessary and sufficient conditions for performing such an operation.
The use of the presented approach will increase the efficiency of applying standardized terms and definitions in activities related to acquiring necessary capabilities.
ANALYTICAL STUDY OF THE INFLUENCE OF THE RADIATION OF HIGH-VOLTAGE POWER LINES ON THE FORMATION OF HARMONIC RADIATION IN THE IONOSPHERE
Authors: Ryhalsky O. , Karashchuk N. , Netrebko R.
Published: October 2024

The influence of radiation from high-voltage power lines on the mechanism of harmonic radiation formation in the ionosphere is studied partially and qualitatively by analytical method on the basis of theories of the electromagnetic field, antennas, and propagation of electromagnetic waves in the atmosphere. This made it possible to interpret the frequency features of the observed spectra registered by the Earth's artificial satellites. The impact of radiation from high-voltage power lines is becoming significant due to the growing level of electricity production and use by powerful electricity consumers, which generate man-made signals at frequencies related to the frequency of the power grid and its numerous harmonics, causing changes in the parameters of the plasma and electromagnetic field in the ionosphere. High-voltage power lines are considered as an antenna system consisting of radiators equivalent to horizontal elementary electric vibrators raised by means of supports above the earth's surface. In the first approximation, the Earth and the atmosphere are described as a spherically layered medium whose electrical parameters depend only on the height to a smooth spherical surface. The components of the electric field intensity amplitude of an elementary electric vibrator in the near-field have been calculated by the analytical method, which proves a very low radiation power. In the far zone, the calculated radiation power is 150.63 kW due to the supply current of 2.93 kA, since the electrical size of such antenna is very small. The determined amplitude of the electric field strength in the ionosphere, taking into account the attenuation depending on the height of the layer, varies from 0.301 mV/m to 6.01 mV/m for altitudes from 100 km to 500 km. The obtained results do not contradict previously measured values.
Difusão e democratização de conhecimento em tempos de produtivismo acadêmico-científico
Authors: Moura Aline de Carvalho , Santos Fabiana de Oliveira dos , Lima Joyce da Costa
Published: October 2024

Partindo da pesquisa em educação como objeto de análise, o objetivo deste artigo é debater sobre como o conceito de produtivismo acadêmico nos ajuda a compreender a produção de conhecimento em educação e seu processo de divulgação e de difusão frente às exigências produtivas que dirigem a pós-graduação brasileira. Problematizamos a situação atual desse debate quando a política brasileira de pós-graduação enfatiza a produção da pesquisa como critério de avaliação institucional, homogeneizando métricas que podem contribuir para possíveis fragilidades teórico-metodológicas. Trata-se de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental com aporte teórico pautado na abordagem marxista que articula a condição econômico-político-social da sociedade capitalista à produção de conhecimento em educação. Nesse sentido, afirmamos a necessidade do debate sobre o movimento de pesquisa frente às pressões produtivas e a forma como essa demanda subverte a lógica do conhecimento como bem comum à lógica do mercado, ressignificando a própria ideia da produção de conhecimento.
Introducing A Conservation-Based Learning Model to Build Student Creativity Through Conservation Values as an Effort to Preserve Biodiversity In SDG's
Authors: Sukarsono  , Saati Elfianis , Huda Atok M. , Chamisijatin Lise , Utami Ulfah
Published: October 2024

Objective: This study aims to determine the implementation of the Conservation-Based Learning (CBL) model and its effect on creative behaviour through conservation values obtained by students through learning.   Theoretical Framework: The CBL model is built on the premise that addressing the negative impacts of biodiversity loss requires behaviour change. While behaviour must be built through knowledge that fosters values. A learning model that is able to build Conservation Values (CV) and Conservation Behaviour (CB) will have a significant role in conserving biodiversity as specified in the SDG's.   Method: The research involved 127 secondary school students used SmartPLS and PLS-Graph version 3.0 to analyse the relationships and effects of two syntaxes in the CBL model: Value Clarification (VC) and Systematic Action Planning (SAP). These syntaxes were tested for their impact on developing students' Conservation Values CV and Conservation Behaviour CB.   Result and Discussion: The findings reveal that all variables examined in the study, including CV, CB, VC, and SAP, have positive and significant relationships. The implementation of the CBL model successfully enhances students' understanding of biodiversity and conservation values while promoting actionable conservation behaviour.   Research Implication: The application of CBL model in learning successfully builds students' values and creative conservation behaviour. This has important implications for efforts to conserve biodiversity through the younger generation as expected in the SDG's.   Originality/Value: This research introduces a new approach to achieve the SDG’s in conserving biodiversity (SDG-14, SDG-15) through quality education (SDG's-4).  The CBL model has the potential to build the conservation values and behaviours of future generations.

Crescimento econômico, emissões de CO2 e complexidade econômica
Authors:   , Alves Kaio Vinícius Vieira
Published: October 2024

Os desafios da coordenação entre crescimento econômico e sustentabilidade ambiental estão cada vez mais iminentes. O presente trabalho propõe o estudo do trade-off entre crescimento econômico e sustentabilidade ambiental sob um arcabouço teórico baseado na macroeconomia pós-keynesiana e na visão ecológica do Novo-Desenvolvimentismo, ao elencar os principais determinantes das emissões de gases de efeito estufa medidos em CO 2 equivalente, destacando o papel da complexidade econômica. Para cumprir tal objetivo, uma análise descritiva da evolução do Índice de Complexidade Econômica (ECI) e do recente Índice de Complexidade Verde (GCI) e a estimação de um painel dinâmico System GMM foram feitas. Os resultados indicam a importância de variáveis que retratam a estrutura produtiva do país para o crescimento de emissões de CO2 e evidenciam a relação negativa entre emissões de gases de efeito estufa e entre os índices ECI e GCI. Além disso, verificou-se maior coeficiente negativo para o GCI, indicando que ao ponderar a complexidade pela capacidade de produção de produtos ambientalmente benéficos, a relação inversa entre emissões e complexidade se fortalece. Palavras-chave: Crescimento econômico, Mudança climática, Emissões de Macroeconomia ecológica, Complexidade econômica, Desenvolvimento sustentável, CO 2.
Construindo Escolas Saudáveis e Humanas

Published: October 2024

Esse livro nasceu como um filho não planejado, mas, por nós imediatamente acolhido. Não sabemos ao certo de quem foi a ideia... ele nasceu. Somos íntimos do tema que trabalhamos, porém, ele consegue nos surpreender em seu modo de estar no mundo, por isso ele não se esgota, ele necessita de atenção para desenvolver-se e crescer. A humanização das escolas é tema premente, que precisa ser repensado, conversado, trabalhado, sensibilizado, cantado em versos e em prosas. Mesmo sem tê-lo planejado, ele nasceu de uma alegria, após termos feito uma Live sobre o tema. Essa Live delineou o formato dessa pequena obra: tanto a participação na escrita dos capítulos, o estilo – uma linguagem mais fluida – e o tamanho dos textos são a transposição daquela mesa redonda. O que o faz interessante é que não tem a pretensão de convencer o leitor ou leitora sobre uma perspectiva específica acerca do tema, a partir de uma verdade única; na medida em que for lendo os quatro capítulos é possível perceber com clareza que há diferenças e aproximações nas formas de compreender e explicar o mesmo assunto, ficando a cargo do leitor ou leitora decidir com qual das visões se identifica mais ou menos. E em tempos de tanta imposição e colonização das ideias, essa é uma característica bonita, afinal é o divergente que faz a ciência avançar. - O primeiro capítulo, escrito por Bernard Charlot, inicia diferenciando os conceitos de humano e humanização, de forma que ficam explicitadas as diferenças entre a escola como lugar humano e como lugar de humanização. No segundo capítulo, Isabel Parolin, trata da humanização a partir do princípio do respeito à infância, tendo a criança como centro da organização escolar, de modo que a rigidez do planejamento docente, por exemplo, seja flexibilizada a fim de que sejam considerados os desejos e necessidades dos estudantes. O terceiro capítulo, redigido por Eliane Pinheiro, expõe a face das contradições que fazem da escola um lugar não saudável e desumanizador, apresentando proposições de como superar essas contradições. Por fim, Celso Vasconcellos defende a tese de que o amor é o caminho para a criação de um ambiente escolar saudável e humano. Esclarece, todavia, que não é amor no sentido atribuído pelo senso comum, mas o amor crítico, posicionado, que se move como dimensão afetiva da ética para além do juízo (dimensão racional) moral e dos Direitos Humanos (dimensão objetiva). Concordamos, apesar das diferenças, que a humanização dos nossos espaços coletivos é assunto urgente, que não pode ser deixado para depois... nós não o deixamos! Estamos entregando esse livreto com a esperança que ele cresça, amadureça e torne-se plenamente vivido não apenas como ideias, mas que colabore em alguma medida com atos reais, efetivos, que suscitem a transformação de nossas escolas. Desejamos que sua leitura seja uma aventura, como é a vida.
Successful Late Correction of a Severely Displaced Radial Neck Fracture in a Child
Authors: Kraus R  , Novermann N
Published: October 2024

Radial neck fractures are rather rare fractures during growth. They are sometimes difficult to diagnose in very young children when the epiphyseal of the proximal radius is not yet calcified. We report on a young patient who suffered an injury to the right elbow joint when he fell while playing at the age of 5 years. No bony injury was diagnosed based on primary radiographs. A diagnosis of elbow contusion was made and the arm was immobilized for a few days to relieve pain.
Gracilis Muscle Transposition Should Be Strongly Considered as the Treatment of Choice for Complete Fecal Incontinence
Authors: Tzu-Chi H
Published: October 2024

: The degree of anal incontinence range from simply incontinence to flatus or liquid to solid stool. Surgery may be carried out if conservative measures alone are not sufficient to control incontinence. Isolated sphincter defects (IAS/EAS) may be treated with sphincteroplasty and if this fails, neosphincter with gracilis muscle transposition (graciloplasty) or artificial anal sphincter may be indicated.
Antibacterial Effect of Silver Nanoparticles Prepared Using Pterospermum Diversifolium Semi-solid Extract
Authors: Do Hue Thi , Le Trung Anh
Published: October 2024

A green technique was used to create silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using Pterospermum Diversifolium semi-solid extract. The leaves were processed into a soft extract to retain the active ingredients of the leaves for a long time. The extract acts as a reducing agent to form Ag atoms and as a surfactant to create a stable environment for AgNPs. Spherical AgNPs with a diameter of about 20 – 50 nm ± 5 nm were formed and were well stable in the solution. Optical properties, as well as structure, size, size distribution, and composition of elements and functional groups of AgNPs, were investigated through absorbance spectra, transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy measurements. The extract and AgNPs were used to study the antibacterial effect on bacterial strains Ecoli, P. aeruginosa, and S. Aureus, with the positive control being amoxicillin. The results showed that AgNPs and leaf extract with a 100 μg/mL concentration have better antibacterial ability than antibiotic amoxicillin 50 μg/mL.

Achieving PCI-DSS Compliance in Payment Gateways: A Comprehensive Approach
Authors: Joshi Pavan Kumar
Published: October 2024

Purpose: The paper aims to highlight the importance of PCI-DSS compliance for organizations processing card payments, particularly focusing on payment gateways as essential protectors of customer data. It seeks to outline a comprehensive strategy for achieving PCI-DSS compliance within payment gateways, ensuring the safeguarding of cardholder data and minimizing transaction risks.
Methodology: The study begins by explaining the significance of PCI-DSS compliance and its twelve foundational principles. It then delves into the technical, organizational, and operational aspects necessary for managing and implementing compliance. This includes an in-depth exploration of the processes involved in assessment, implementation, and monitoring, as well as the technological components like tokenization, encryption, and secure networks. A comparative analysis is conducted, examining payment gateway violations before and after PCI-DSS compliance, in order to empirically support the effectiveness of the compliance strategy.
Findings: The findings in the study reveals that achieving PCI-DSS compliance significantly reduces the risk of data breaches and ensures better protection of customer information. The comparative assessment demonstrates a clear reduction in payment gateway violations post-implementation of the PCI-DSS standards. Additionally, it shows that cloud service providers and third-party vendors play a crucial role in maintaining compliance across the entire transaction value chain, further enhancing data security.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice, and Policy: The paper contributes to the understanding of how PCI-DSS compliance directly correlates with reducing data breaches in payment gateways and offers a practical approach for implementing compliance strategies. It offers a roadmap for businesses to assess, implement, and monitor PCI-DSS compliance, emphasizing the need for continuous risk management, especially in dynamic regulatory and technological environments. The paper advocates for ongoing compliance efforts, arguing that PCI-DSS is not a one-time exercise but a continuous, evolving requirement. It stresses the importance of proactive risk management in response to innovations and threats in the payment industry.

Using TED talks to improve engineering students’ oral skills
Authors: Juan Rubio Antonio Daniel
Published: October 2024

This paper deals with the training of undergraduate engineering students and is interdisciplinary in nature. It brings together three distinct aspects of scientific dissemination: the content of an engineering degree; the oral transmission of this content following the effective TED talks model; and the use English as a medium of scientific transmission. The paper highlights the need for trainee Spanish engineers to be able to communicate their work to the public through oral presentations that are brief and entertaining, yet scientifically rigorous. The core of the study consists of an analysis of a particular TED talk that is relevant for a variety of engineering degrees. We conclude that while it is necessary for Spanish engineers to receive specific training at a professional level in oral communication skills, there is a close relationship between the mode of transmission and the subject specific content to be transmitted that needs to be considered carefully. Developing a mastery of English is important, but essential communication skills are the most crucial aspect, regardless of the language of communication.

The Churches of Santiago de Compostela, a diachronic analysis of their orientations
Authors: González-García A. César , Lianou Vasileia
Published: October 2024

The orientation of nearly 50 churches in the historic city of Santiago de Compostela are presented. These include churches built along the history of the town, from the early Medieval period until the end of the 20thcentury. Interestingly, all churches built before the Council of Trent appear to have orientations consistent with canonical prescriptions, notably in two flavors. One would be consistent with the canonical equinox at the date of construction, possibly dictated by the orientation of the Cathedral itself. The other orientation is set a few degrees south of due east and could be dictated by the streets of the Medieval town. After the Council of Trent churches were built mostly to have the façade perpendicular to a main street, so that the apse and the altar no longer are systematically facing towards the rising sun.
Disentangling the Relationship Between Machiavellianism and Social Dominance Orientation
Authors: Bonfá-Araujo Bruno
Published: October 2024

Background

Machiavellianism and social dominance orientation are two constructs associated with socially undesirable behavior and predictors of prejudice; however, their relationship has mainly been investigated through measures that only assess the antagonism dimension of Machiavellianism. Thus, this study aimed to disentangle their relationship using an instrument assessing agency and planfulness.

Participants and procedure

Participants were 767 Brazilians aged 18 to 71 (M = 30.10, SD = 10.60), most identified as women (67.7%) and assessed using the Five Factor Machiavellianism Inventory, the Short Dark Triad, and the Social Dominance Orientation Scale. A path model was used, where the Machiavellianism and the Dark Triad dimensions predicted social dominance orientation.

Results

The results suggest that antagonism was indeed the primary and only dimension of Machiavellianism to predict dominance and antiegalitarianism, while agency and planfulness were non-significant.

Conclusions

The findings suggest that socially dominant traits have their roots in antagonism, showing no interaction with planning and impulse control.

The role of pedagogical content knowledge in preservice teachers’ choice of examples to create opportunities for learning analytical geometry in KwaZulu-Natal multilingual classrooms
Authors:   , Zulu Sibongile
Published: October 2024

The study set to respond to calls for research in multilingual mathematics teacher training classrooms with the intention to advance the quality of mathematics preservice teachers (PSTs) content knowledge and improve mathematics education for school learners. In this qualitative study, the pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) of PSTs in one of the universities in the KwaZulu Natal Province in South Africa was explored. This was to understand how it guides their choice of examples for teaching analytical geometry in multilingual classrooms. Grade 11 analytical geometry lesson plans of 21 PSTs who had been given an analytical geometry test were analysed. The test was to investigate the PSTs content knowledge, which is a basis for PCK, and the lesson plans were analysed to examine the PSTs PCK from the way they structure their lesson objectives and choice of examples. Semi-structured verification interviews were conducted to follow up on both the test responses and lesson plan content, mainly the choice of examples. The domains and subdomains of the Shulman’s PCK born Mathematics Teacher’s Specialised Knowledge (MTSK) model and patterns of variation from the variation theory were used as the theoretical framework, which also guided the analytical framework. The study established that the PSTs had limited content knowledge, and PCK for teaching analytical geometry at Grade 11. The limited knowledge was seen in the way the PSTs relied on procedures for problem solving rather than conceptual understanding, and for this reason they chose procedural examples for teaching the topic. The study also found that the language of learning and teaching affects the PSTs ability to explain concepts in their problem solving, and this also affects their examples choice. Interview responses confirmed that the PSTs are not cognizant of the use of language in their example choice. Therefore, PSTs in multilingual teacher training must be explicitly taught to choose examples and consider learners in multilingual classrooms.
An Examination of an Eschatological Christian Leader: Last Emperor Topos in Oracula Attributed to Byzantine Emperor Leo VI. (886-912)
Authors: Var Umut
Published: October 2024

In Christian eschatology, the leadership typology is not limited solely to the figure of the Messiah. This typology has been expanded, particularly with figures such as the Last Emperor. Oracula, attributed to Byzantine Emperor Leo VI (886-912), presents this emperor as a divinely chosen leader, drawing from Biblical and imperial archetypes. His sacred lineage and role in restoring order are emphasized, reinforcing the connection between imperial power and divine will. This article focuses on the prophesied details regarding the last emperor’s genealogy, physical characteristics, and descent to earth. The study argues that this myth was constructed to serve Byzantine political theology during times of crisis, stabilizing and legitimizing imperial authority through eschatological themes that resonated with the religious and political concerns of Byzantine society. Thus, a detailed analysis of one of the key figures in Christian eschatology has been undertaken through the method of close reading, aiming to fill one of the significant gaps in the literature.

Objective: Abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) is well known as a useful and simple clinical indicator of the risk of fracture and cardiovascular disease. However, no studies have directly compared the postoperative implications of AAC in spinal surgery. The purpose of this study was thus to examine whether extended AAC (scores ≥5) negatively affected clinical outcomes after posterior lumbar fusion with instrumentation for degenerative lumbar stenosis or degenerative spondylolisthesis.Methods: The subjects comprised 101 consecutive patients with spinal stenosis or degenerative spondylolisthesis who underwent posterior lumbar fusion and instrumentation between January 2016 and January 2019 and were followed for over 2 years. Propensity score matching was employed to assemble patient groups with similar baseline characteristics. Postoperative complications and radiologic outcomes were compared between the groups (33 patients in each) divided by extended AAC score.Results: The incidence rates of junctional failure (6.1% vs. 30.3%, P=0.008) and screw-related complications (12.1% vs. 36.4%, P=0.019) were higher in the extended AAC group than in the mild AAC group. However, the rates of adjacent segment disease (24.2% vs. 36.4%, P=0.283) and revision (6.1% vs. 9.1%, P=0.642) were not significantly different between the 2 groups. In terms of postoperative medical complications, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases were significantly more common in the extended AAC group than in the mild AAC group (0% vs. 15.2%, P=0.020).Conclusion: Extended AAC indicates increased risk for postoperative junctional failure and screw-related complications, regardless of age, osteoporosis, and comorbidities.

O presente trabalho volta-se sobre a temática da Educação formadora e busca por meio de um recorte filosófico, e a partir da pesquisa bibliográfica, refletir sobre a relação entre um paradigma integrador da realidade e potenciais emancipatórios do pensamento. Em primeiro lugar partiremos do recorte crítico do pensamento decolonial, no intuito de evidenciar os limites do pensamento dicotômico da cultura ocidental, enquanto ponto de partida para se pensar uma educação libertadora. Em segundo lugar, abordaremos dois referenciais de pensamento que nos ajudam a pensar a relação entre educador e educando de forma integrada e criativa, a saber: a filosofia espinosana e a filosofia da diferença.

A lesão do ligamento cruzado anterior (LCA) é uma das mais comuns em atletas, frequentemente resultando em complicações que afetam a estabilidade e a função do joelho. A compreensão da anatomia do LCA e do seu papel na biomecânica do joelho é crucial para a realização de cirurgias eficazes e para o desenvolvimento de protocolos de reabilitação adequados. O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar as implicações anatômicas das lesões do LCA, revisar as abordagens cirúrgicas e destacar a importância da fisioterapia na recuperação. A literatura indica que, além da cirurgia, um programa de reabilitação que combine fortalecimento muscular, exercícios de propriocepção e treinamento neuromuscular é fundamental para restaurar a funcionalidade do joelho e prevenir lesões recorrentes. Estudos demonstram que a personalização dos protocolos de reabilitação, adaptando-os às necessidades específicas de cada paciente, melhora significativamente os resultados funcionais e a segurança durante o retorno às atividades esportivas. Conclui-se que uma abordagem integrada, que considera tanto a precisão na cirurgia quanto um protocolo de reabilitação baseado em evidências, é essencial para otimizar a recuperação após lesões do LCA. O monitoramento contínuo e a reavaliação dos pacientes são cruciais para garantir que eles retornem à sua qualidade de vida ativa de forma segura e eficaz. Com essa estratégia, é possível maximizar os resultados positivos e reduzir o risco de complicações a longo prazo.

A doença de von Willebrand (DvW) caracteriza-se como uma desordem hemorrágica hereditária, caracterizada pela deficiência ou disfunção do fator von Willebrand, essencial na coagulação. Essa condição apresenta desafios significativos na saúde reprodutiva das mulheres, afetando desde a menstruação até a gestação. Mulheres com DvW frequentemente enfrentam menorragia, o que pode impactar sua qualidade de vida e resultar em anemia. Durante a gravidez, a gestão torna-se ainda mais crítica, pois as alterações hemostáticas podem aumentar o risco de hemorragias e complicações obstétricas. Estudos demonstram que um acompanhamento adequado e intervenções personalizadas são fundamentais para minimizar esses riscos. Além disso, procedimentos ginecológicos em pacientes com essa patologia exigem cuidados especiais para prevenir sangramentos excessivos. O reconhecimento precoce da condição, aliado a uma abordagem multidisciplinar, é essencial para garantir o bem-estar dessas mulheres. Este trabalho tem como objetivo consolidar as evidências atuais sobre os desafios e impactos da DvW na saúde reprodutiva, explorando suas implicações clínicas e ressaltando a importância de estratégias de manejo adequadas. Compreender essas questões é vital para aprimorar a assistência às mulheres afetadas e promover uma abordagem mais integrada e sensível às suas necessidades reprodutivas.
