Abstract
Background: Oral care is a critical aspect of nursing for critically ill children in Pediatric Intensive Care Units (PICU). Poor oral hygiene in intubated patients can lead to complications such as biofilm buildup, ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and impacting patient outcomes. An effective oral care programmed influence overall good intensive care outcome and influenced by several factors regarding the understating, belief and importance of good oral environment. Assessing nurses’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices towards oral hygiene is vital to identify gaps and enhance training efforts for optimal patient care.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 80 nurse sat National Heart Foundation Hospital and Research Institute, Mirpur, Dhaka who were working in Pediatric cardiac ICU. The data were collected from November 2023 to December 2023.
Results: This study examines the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of intensive care nurses regarding oral care for critically ill children in a Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Unit (PCICU). The mean age of nurses was 25.43±2.83 years, with most aged 25-29 and having an average nursing experience of 3.44±2.84 years but most of them have less experience in PICU. Although 95% recognized oral care as essential, knowledge gaps were noted, particularly about oral biofilm (35%) and VAP (70%). Barriers to care included patient non-cooperation (61.3%), intubation (45%), and limited staff (27.5%). While 71.3% used forceps and gauze, and 83.8% used normal saline, more than 50% of nurses expressed a need for biannual training to improve care delivery. The findings underscore the need for regular training to address barriers and improve oral care quality in PCICU settings.
Conclusion: The study provided useful findings regarding oral hygiene knowledge, thought and practices of nurses caring for critically ill patients. The study highlights gaps in oral care knowledge, attitudes, and practices among intensive care nurses, emphasizing the need for regular training.

Authors: Rampazzo Daniel Richetti , Censi Guilherme , Ferraro Ricardo Moraes
Published: February 2025

A litigância climática é um mecanismo crescente para enfrentar as mudanças climáticas, onde cidadãos, ONGs e comunidades processam governos e empresas por ações que agravam a crise climática. Um exemplo significativo é o caso Milieudefensie et al. v. Royal Dutch Shell plc, que resultou em uma decisão obrigando a Shell a reduzir suas emissões de gases de efeito estufa em 45% até 2030. Essa forma de litigância visa garantir que Estados adotem políticas alinhadas com acordos internacionais, como o Acordo de Paris, e pressionar corporações a reduzirem suas emissões. Apesar dos desafios, como a complexidade das provas científicas e a resistência de atores poderosos, a litigância climática é essencial para promover justiça climática e proteger direitos humanos, incluindo o direito a um ambiente saudável.

Cleft lip and palate is an inadequate formation in the orofacial region that compromises basic physiological functions of the newborn, one of which is the nutritional function that is intrinsically linked to the growth and development of a child. Even when breastfeeding is difficult, exclusive breastfeeding during the first six months of life is a priority, even if it is being impaired by the cleft. Thus, the flexible obturator plate is a resource that can be used to restore physiological functions such as chewing, swallowing and speech production. Therefore, the objective of the study is to describe a case report on the support of the obturator plate for breastfeeding of a newborn with cleft lip and palate. This is a qualitative case report study with a descriptive approach, carried out from November 2024 to February 2025, based on the records of the multidisciplinary team contained in the patient's electronic medical record, while the Newborn (NB) was being monitored in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The analysis of the information was done by selecting the collected material and providing a detailed description of the case. The preparation by the care team and the use of the palatal obturator plate by the newborn was essential to balance the physiological and nutritional demands of breastfeeding, as well as to establish the maternal bond. The relevance of the multidisciplinary team in the care of the newborn was observed. Thus, the benefits of using palatal prostheses to establish breastfeeding, weight gain, reduction of hospitalization time and for child growth and development are noted.

Introduction: Biliary cysts, also known as choledochal malformations, are cystic dilations that can occur in isolation or in multiple segments of the biliary tree. Clinically, they often manifest with abdominal pain and jaundice, although some patients remain asymptomatic. Case Report: We present the case of a 30-year-old female patient from the interior of the state of Amazonas, with hearing loss and a history of previous cholecystectomy. The patient was diagnosed with a choledochal cyst after a suggestive clinical picture, confirmed by imaging tests. Treatment consisted of resection of the cyst and reconstruction using a Roux-en-Y biliodigestive anastomosis. Discussion: Choledochal cysts are rare conditions, especially because they can be asymptomatic, which can delay diagnosis. Surgical resection is essential both to reduce the risk of malignization and to relieve symptoms in symptomatic patients. Conclusion: With advances in imaging tests, the diagnosis of choledochal cysts has become more frequent. However, this condition remains relatively rare in clinical practice. Surgical treatment by resection is recommended due to the risk of malignant transformation, with Roux-en-Y biliodigestive anastomosis being the preferred technique for reconstruction.

Authors: Rampazzo Daniel Richetti
Published: February 2025

O direito ambiental como campo autônomo emergiu nos anos 1970, impulsionado pela crescente consciência sobre os impactos ambientais das atividades humanas. A Conferência de Estocolmo de 1972 foi um marco, estabelecendo princípios fundamentais para o desenvolvimento do direito ambiental internacional. No Brasil, a Constituição de 1988 consolidou o direito ao meio ambiente equilibrado como um direito fundamental, ressaltando a função social da propriedade e a necessidade de harmonizar desenvolvimento econômico com sustentabilidade ambiental. A legislação brasileira, como o Código Florestal e o Estatuto da Cidade, busca equilibrar a proteção ambiental com os direitos à propriedade e à livre iniciativa.

Published: February 2025

Introduction: Student safety in the school environment is a priority concern, especially due to the various risks to which children are exposed, including the aspiration of foreign bodies. The Lucas Law represents a crucial measure in this context, establishing guidelines for the training of educators in first aid, with emphasis on the Heimlich maneuver technique. Objective: To evaluate the qualification of education professionals according to the Lucas Law, with emphasis on the Heimlich maneuver. Methodology: This is a research that used a qualitative descriptive exploratory method. A structured questionnaire containing objective questions was used and applied in municipal and private schools in the city of Petrolina-PE. The data collected were converted into absolute frequency, relative frequency and mean. Result: The research was conducted with 15 teachers who work in early childhood education in the public (8) and private (7) networks in the city of Petrolina-PE. 53% of teachers said they were unaware of the Lucas Law, but 87% highlighted the importance of the Heimlich maneuver. Only 20% of them had witnessed choking situations and performed the maneuver. Conclusion: Due to the low level of knowledge in first aid, there is a need for frequent training and updates. The correct application of the Heimlich maneuver requires greater preparation. All teachers interviewed are interested in new courses, and this reflects the desire to acquire autonomy and confidence in dealing with emergencies in the school environment.
A PSICANÁLISE FRENTE À CRISE PSICÓTICA: POTENCIALIDADES DE INTERVENÇÃO.
Authors: Ferreira Camy Vieira de Alcantara Pereira
Published: February 2025

This article addresses the limits and possibilities of psychoanalysis in the intervention of psychotic crises. It starts from the importance of understanding psychoanalysis as an approach that can access unconscious conflicts, particularly in critical contexts such as psychotic crises. The study aims to define psychotic crises, describe the main interventions and treatments available, and analyze the role of psychoanalysis in managing these crises. This research is based on a literature review, examining studies from databases such as SciELO and Pepsic, with no temporal restrictions to include both classical and contemporary authors relevant to the topic. The findings indicate that psychoanalysis contributes significantly to understanding the subjective aspects of psychosis and may be effective in long-term interventions. However, limitations were identified in acute crises. It is concluded that, although psychoanalysis offers a solid theoretical foundation and valuable insights into the treatment of psychosis, its effectiveness in acute crisis contexts can be enhanced when combined with other approaches. Therefore, it is recommended to investigate integrated approaches and training for crisis intervention to improve therapeutic care in cases of acute psychosis.

Designing Accessible Virtual Reality Interfaces Using Reinforcement Learning for Users with Motor and Sensory Impairments
Authors: Ahmed Hazza Bin , alzuoubi Mohammad
Published: February 2025

Virtual Reality (VR) technologies offer immersive experiences with education, healthcare, and entertainment applications. However, accessibility for people with motor and sensory impairments is limited, often creating barriers to equal participation. Traditional interfaces lack the flexibility to handle users' differing needs, thus bringing about challenges in usability. The paper proposes ARL-VRI to design adaptive VR interfaces that cater to diverse user needs by leveraging adaptive Reinforcement Learning (ARL) to enhance interaction and usability. The RLbased framework will continue learning from user interactions to optimize control and sensory outputs in VR. It combines gesture recognition, haptic feedback adjustment, and visual enhancement, optimized toward individual capabilities within iterative feedback loops. The ARLVRI approach guarantees that the interface elements of thresholds of input and sensory cues evolve to provide seamless interaction and accessibility for all kinds of users. Key results show a 35% improvement in interaction accuracy and a 40% reduction in task completion time, compared to traditional static interfaces. User satisfaction questionnaires also showed higher engagement and lower cognitive load, mostly for users with motor or sensory impairments. In conclusion, this RL-driven adaptive VR interface has the potential to close accessibility gaps in virtual environments and provide inclusive and equitable experiences for users of diverse abilities.

Published: February 2025

L’adoption des TICE dans l’enseignement supérieur en Algérie a suscité une réflexion nuancée sur leurs impacts sur les pratiques pédagogiques et les dynamiques d’apprentissage. Une étude comparative menée en 2020 auprès d’étudiants de première année de licence de français à l’université de Saida a mis en évidence des résultats inattendus. Contre toute attente, les séances en présentiel ont montré une participation limitée des étudiants, alors que les séances à distance ont permis une plus grande participation, un constat qui interroge sur les facteurs pouvant expliquer ce phénomène. En revanche, les cours à distance ont favorisé une plus grande implication des étudiants, notamment grâce à la flexibilité qu’ils offrent.  Lors des débats, les étudiants avaient tendance à faire des interventions plus longues lorsqu'ils participaient à distance par rapport à celles effectuées en présentiel. Toutefois, les débats en présentiel étaient caractérisés par un plus grand nombre d'interruptions, ce qui restreignait la parole des étudiants. Dans les deux modalités, la motivation des étudiants est apparue élevée, mais elle semblait renforcée en distanciel, notamment en raison de la fréquence des échanges. En résumé, l'apprentissage à distance favorise et encourage une interaction verbale entre les étudiants plus fréquente et plus stimulante.  Notre étude porte sur l’interaction verbales des étudiants de première année licence de français à l’université de Saida, Algérie, dans l'enseignement hybride, une approche combinant enseignement à distance et   présentiel. Elle compare le niveau de participation des étudiants, la durée des interventions lors des débats, le nombre d'interruptions et la motivation des étudiants dans les deux contextes.

Introdução: O exercício físico, especialmente o resistido, traz benefícios amplamente reconhecidos para a saúde muscular, metabólica e mental, beneficiando inclusive idosos e portadores de doenças crônicas. A bioestatística é essencial para avaliar e otimizar essas intervenções, especialmente em projetos de extensão universitária que promovem saúde pública e adesão ao exercício. Este estudo busca analisar, com apoio de análises bioestatísticas, os efeitos de seis meses de exercícios resistidos sobre a saúde mental e sociabilidade, contribuindo para a eficácia dos programas de exercício no contexto da saúde pública. Métodos: Este estudo quase-experimental, conduzido em Valença-RJ, acompanhou 68 pacientes com doenças crônicas que participaram de um projeto de atividade física em um programa de extensão universitária. Foram realizadas duas sessões semanais de exercícios resistidos ao longo de seis meses, monitorando a saúde física e mental via questionário SF-36. Análises bioestatísticas, incluindo testes de Wilcoxon e bootstrap, avaliaram a evolução dos aspectos sociais e de saúde mental, considerando diferenças entre gêneros. A abordagem mista permitiu uma análise detalhada dos benefícios da intervenção. Resultados: A intervenção teve um efeito positivo significativo nos aspectos sociais e na saúde mental dos participantes, com p-valores de 0,01431 e 0,004387, respectivamente. Embora alguns participantes não tenham mostrado mudanças nos aspectos sociais, a saúde mental melhorou, com redução de estresse e melhora no humor. Não houve diferenças significativas entre os gêneros nos aspectos sociais (p=0,3212) ou saúde mental (p=0,3417), sugerindo que os benefícios foram semelhantes para homens e mulheres. Conclusão: Este estudo demonstrou o impacto positivo da atividade física no bem-estar social e mental, confirmando os benefícios já conhecidos dessa prática. Os resultados mostraram melhorias significativas nesses aspectos, sem diferenças entre gêneros. Embora a intervenção tenha sido eficaz, as limitações incluíram o curto período e a falta de grupo controle. Recomenda-se a realização de estudos futuros com intervenções mais longas e frequentes, além de incluir variáveis adicionais e grupos controle para uma análise mais robusta. Esses achados reforçam a importância da atividade física para a saúde pública e qualidade de vida.
