World War I and World War II: Their Effects on the Islamic World and Afghanistan
Authors: Hamid Nisar Ahmad , Asim Esmatullah
Published: October 2024

The tremendous effects that World War I and World War II had on the Islamic world are investigated in this research, with a particular focus on Afghanistan. The aftermath of World War I resulted in the breakup of empires, most notably the Ottoman Empire, as well as the restructuring of political boundaries. The study aims to explore and analyze the far-reaching impacts of World War I and World War II on the Islamic world, with a particular focus on Afghanistan. The study seeks to examine how these global conflicts reshaped political, social, and economic dynamics in Muslim-majority regions, leading to the disintegration of empires, the rise of nationalism, and the realignment of power structures. The significance of this study lies in the fact that it shades light on a relatively unexplored facet of world history, namely the manner in which the Islamic world, and Afghanistan in particular, was impacted by the two World Wars. Specifically, it sheds light on the growth of nationalism, decolonization, and geopolitical competition, all of which played a role in shaping the position of Afghanistan, Central Asia, and the Middle East within the global system. This work employs the doctrinal research methodology along with descriptive, explanatory, and analytical research approaches. It is worth mentioning that this research study is entirely based on library sources. Most of the sources are reputable and trustworthy textbooks, scholarly published and unpublished journal articles, law reports, and online websites related to the research area. One of the main findings is Both World Wars accelerated the disintegration of Islamic empires, notably the Ottoman Empire, and paved the way for European colonial powers to carve out new territories in the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia. Afghanistan’s strategic position made it vulnerable to foreign influence, particularly from Britain and Russia. After World War I, Afghanistan gained greater autonomy, but it became a battleground for influence between the Soviet Union and the West following World War II, especially during the Cold War. It is recommended that further research and documents are needed the Islamic world’s experience during both World Wars, which has often been overlooked in global history. Incorporating these perspectives into academic curricula could help reshape understanding of global conflicts from a non-Western perspective.

Authors:   Assistant Department of orthopedic dentistry, Samarkand State Medical University, Samarkand, Uzbekistan, Marjona Turumova
Published: October 2024

Dental caries is the most common dental disease in children. The problem of timely diagnosis, prevention and adequate treatment of this pathology occupies one of the leading places in pediatric therapeutic dentistry. However, before applying the sealant, the dentist faces the difficult task of assessing the condition of the fissure, diagnosing a possible latent carious lesion, and choosing adequate tactics for therapeutic and preventive measures. Fissure caries occupies the first place in the structure of carious lesions of the teeth. Based on this, the problem of prevention and treatment of fissure caries is extremely urgent. It has been established that fissure caries occurs immediately after teething. The high incidence of fissure caries is associated with the features of the anatomical structure of the fissures, the accumulation of food residues and the formation of aggressive dental plaque in the natural recesses of the tooth and a longer period of hypomineralization compared with smooth tooth surfaces. There is a direct relationship between the initial level of mineralization of the enamel of fissure teeth and the risk of fissure caries.

The article provides information and definitions about the religion and its history so that the essence and importance of the Islamic religion can be seen more clearly. Since ancient times, the human race has lived in search of its God, that is, it accepted religion as a bridge to reach the truth. Since primitive times, religions have been seen as simple, and religions have also changed with human development. Today, there are more than 10,000 religions, sects, and confessions worldwide, but still, the human race continues to search for the truth. It talks about love and affection, which is the basis of the essence of Islam. After all, belief and religious practice promote psychological well-being by comforting people in times of adversity and increasing their social connections with others in places of worship. Many studies show that people of all ages, not just the elderly, are happier and more satisfied with their lives if they are religious. Religiousness also appears to improve physical health, and some studies even show that religious people live longer than non-religious people.

Published: October 2024

Interest in treating necrotising fasciitis in patients with diabetes mellitus is not decreasing, as evidenced by many publications devoted to this problem. Many methods of local treatment of necrotising fasciitis against the background of diabetes mellitus have been proposed, a variety of methods are used, including nanotechnological dressings, highly organised technologies, and physiotherapeutic procedures, as well as numerous single- and multi-component schemes, and new Medicines. At the same time, there are still no unified tactics for the treatment of necrotising fasciitis against the background of diabetes mellitus, the choice of the optimal intervention or combination in different phases of the inflammatory process has not been determined, which is not least due to the variety of approaches to presenting the results of treatment. To date, there is no standard for describing the features of the course of necrotising fasciitis against the background of diabetes mellitus. In connection with the above, this scientific article is devoted to the analysis of the clinical manifestation of necrotising fasciitis in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Authors: Zhu Yue , Crowell Johnathan
Published: October 2024

Self-supervised learning (SSL) has become a transformative approach in the field of machine learning, offering a powerful means to harness the vast amounts of unlabeled data available across various domains. By creating auxiliary tasks that generate supervisory signals directly from the data, SSL mitigates the dependency on large, labeled datasets, thereby expanding the applicability of machine learning models. This paper provides a comprehensive exploration of SSL techniques applied to diverse data types, including images, text, audio, and time-series data. We delve into the underlying principles that drive SSL, examine common methodologies, and highlight specific algorithms tailored to each data type. Additionally, we address the unique challenges encountered in applying SSL across different domains and propose future research directions that could further enhance the capabilities and effectiveness of SSL. Through this analysis, we underscore SSL's potential to significantly advance the development of robust, generalizable models capable of tackling complex real-world problems.

Published: October 2024

In recent years, dyes have been classified as recalcitrant contaminants in wastewater, exhibiting significant toxicological characteristics for flora, fauna, and humans. Various techniques are currently being studied for the remediation of water contaminated with dyes. Among the most relevant alternative technologies are bioadsorption, biocoagulation, the use of composite materials, advanced oxidation processes, etc. However, these methods have some disadvantages. Similarly, the use of hydrogels  specifically designed for the treatment of contaminated water is a viable and effective alternative. This is due to their ability to adsorb large amounts of water, high porosity, and multiple active sites. This research describes dyes, their classification,toxicity, and ecotoxicity. Additionally, it presents some alternative treatments for water remediation, emphasizing the design of hydrogels based on synthetic and natural macromolecules. These hydrogels are proposed as promising materials for the removal of dyes from contaminated water. The aim of this research is to highlight synthetic and natural hydrogels as promising materials for the decontamination of water from dyes.

Authors: Tonin Edvaldo , Boaventura Edenir Guetten da , Benitez Fabio João
Published: October 2024

A Sífilis é uma Infecção Sexualmente Transmissível causada pela bactéria Treponema pallidum, que invade as mucosas e, atualmente, é um problema de saúde pública mundial. A Sífilis na gestação é preocupante, pois se não tratada, pode ser transmitida ao feto via transplacentária ou em qualquer fase da gestação. Objetivo: Este estudo teve como objetivo verificar o perfil epidemiológico dos casos de Sífilis Gestacional no ano de 2022 no município de Foz do Iguaçu-PR. Método: Pesquisa descritiva, com abordagem quali-quantitativa, que proporcionou a compreensão do contexto e do problema. Para a contextualização bibliográfica, foram utilizados artigos científicos, dissertações e protocolos do Ministério da Saúde; e para a coleta dos dados, foram utilizados alguns Indicadores da Sífilis Gestacional do Ministério da Saúde, referentes ao ano de 2022 no município de Foz do Iguaçu-PR. Resultados: Foram detectados 59 casos de Sífilis em gestantes, sendo 29 (49,2%) detectados no 1º trimestre de gestação, 11 (18,6%) no 2º trimestre, 18 (30,5%) no 3º trimestre e 1 (1,7%) com idade gestacional ignorada. A média de idade das gestantes infectadas foi de 14 casos (23,7%) entre 15 e 19 anos, 30 (50,8%) entre 20 e 29 anos, 14 (23,7%) entre 30 e 39 anos e 1 (1,7%) com 40 anos ou mais.
Quanto à escolaridade, foram detectados 3 casos (5,1%) entre a 1ª e 4ª série incompleta, 3 (5,1%) com a 4ª série completa, 14 (23,7%) entre a 5ª e 8ª série incompleta, 4 (6,8%)
com ensino fundamental completo, 10 (16,9%) com ensino médio incompleto, 7 (11,9%) com ensino médio completo, 3 (5,1%) com ensino superior incompleto e 2 (3,1%) com ensino superior completo. A prevalência de idade entre 20 e 29 anos e o baixo grau de escolaridade, estão associados aos casos de Sífilis Gestacional, similar aos dados registrados a nível Brasil no mesmo ano e entre 2005 a 2017. Estudos realizados em Palmas-TO e Belo Horizonte-MG, entre 2007 a 2014, demonstram que grande parcela das gestações na adolescência ocorre após o abandono escolar, onde o baixo nível escolar está relacionado ao menor acesso à informação. Conclusões: Com esta pesquisa, foi possível verificar que a assistência pré-natal vem sendo realizada precocemente, bem como o acesso ao diagnóstico oportunizado às gestantes, conforme protocolos do Ministério da Saúde, como a realização obrigatória de exames do pré-natal no primeiro trimestre de gestação sugeridos por algumas Unidades de Saúde, em especial às vinculadas pelo SUS. Diante dessas informações, ainda é necessário a realização de campanhas educativas, educação sexual e outras medidas de prevenção à Sífilis, pois o baixo nível de escolaridade está diretamente associado ao menor nível de compreensão das medidas de prevenção às Infecções Sexualmente Transmissíveis, em especial a Sífilis.

Published: October 2024

A Análise Institucional (AI) é referencial teórico valioso para o exame de dinâmicas institucionais. Esta revisão de escopo objetivou sintetizar e analisar a produção científica que utiliza AI em pesquisas sobre planejamento, execução ou avaliação de práticas de cuidado em saúde, no contexto da saúde coletiva e da saúde pública. A busca bibliográfica foi conduzida utilizando os descritores: "Análise Institucional" OR "Institutional Analysis" OR "Análisis Institucional" OR "Analyse Institutionnelle" AND "Saúde Coletiva" OR "Public Health" OR "Salud Pública" OR "Santé Publique". Foram identificadas 392 publicações, sendo 46 selecionadas para análise. Os estudos, em sua maioria de abordagem qualitativa, foram publicados entre 2000 e 2023, sendo 43,5% da área de saúde coletiva, e 52,2% tiveram como campo a atenção primária. Os objetivos abordaram, entre outros, a interseção entre saúde, educação permanente e AI. As técnicas de coleta de dados incluíram entrevistas semiestruturadas, observação participante, diários de pesquisa, grupos e encontros socioclínicos. Os termos mais frequentemente associados ao referencial teórico foram "Instituição" (95,7%) e "Instituído" (91,3%). Conclui-se que o uso predominante da AI em estudos qualitativos, sustentado por uma base teórico-conceitual sólida, revela o seu potencial para exame aprofundado das dinâmicas institucionais visando promover transformações. A saúde coletiva, que compartilha da visão crítica e perspectiva interdisciplinar da AI, é campo fértil para sua aplicação. O crescente uso da AI em abordagens participativas e de pesquisa-intervenção posiciona o pesquisador como sujeito reflexivo, e ressalta a importância de considerar múltiplos ponto de vista na análise das instituições.

Authors: Santos Brenda Vasconcelos dos , Neves Nábyla Polliana Picanço das
Published: October 2024

O Transtorno Dismórfico Corporal (TDC) é caracterizado por uma percepção distorcida em relação a imagem corporal, segundo o DSM V. Essa percepção distorcida gera uma insatisfação que causa prejuízos na vida social do indivíduo, principalmente na adolescência. A adolescência representa, em nossa sociedade, a passagem da infância para a vida adulta e é marcada por intensas transformações biopsicossociais, que influenciam diretamente a relação do adolescente com seu corpo e, consequentemente, com sua imagem corporal. Este estudo teve como objetivo investigar o transtorno dismórfico corporal em adolescentes relacionado ao uso excessivo das redes sociais. A presente pesquisa se trata de uma pesquisa bibliográfica, de natureza qualitativa. A análise do Transtorno Dismórfico Corporal (TDC) em adolescentes revela que a obsessão com a aparência, amplificada pelas redes sociais e padrões de beleza irrealistas, intensifica a insatisfação corporal e o sofrimento emocional. A pesquisa destacou a relevância desse tema, mas também identificou lacunas na literatura sobre a interseção entre o TDC e a cultura digital, indicando a necessidade de mais investigações nessa área.

A diabetes é uma doença crônica, a qual vem acometendo milhares de pessoas em todo o planeta. Por conta das complicações que esta condição traz aos diabéticos, é imperioso que estes pacientes realizem o monitoramento dos níveis de glicose no sangue. O estudo tem como objetivo geral analisar a importância do uso de dispositivos de monitoramento continuo de glicose no controle glicêmico e na qualidade de vida de pessoas vivendo com diabetes tipo 1 e 2. Com relação aos procedimentos metodológico, o estudo é embasado em revisão de literatura. Procedeu-se com a busca por artigos científicos em bases como PUBMED, SciELO e Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde – BVS. Os resultados demonstraram que estes dispositivos são importantes, pois como a diabetes não tem cura, o auxílio gerado com estes artefatos pode melhorar o controle glicêmico, reduzindo assim a probabilidade de efeitos mais severos da doença. Entretanto, reitera-se não somente a necessidade de se fazer mais estudos sobre este tema, mas também alertar que a eficácia destes dispositivos perpassa pela disciplina dos usuários com relação ao seu respectivo uso.

One of the problems that is often faced by Land and Building Taxpayers (PBB-P2) in paying taxes is the amount of PBB-P2 payments owed. To be able to find out the amount of the outstanding PBB-P2 payment, it is necessary to understand the tax subject, tax object, tax object exemption, and the PBB-P2 rate owed. Through Community Service, it is hoped that the Village Head as a Taxpayer can understand the amount of payments that must be paid to the outstanding PBB-P2 and provide socialization to the villagers so that taxpayers from various villages in Tegal Regency can obey in paying PBB-P2. Thus, through this service, it will provide understanding to the participants to be able to pay tax arrears and be obedient in paying taxes afterwards. The target of this service is the Village Head of Tegal Regency. This activity will be held on Tuesday, August 13, 2024 at 09.00 WIB until it is finished. The results of the service activities showed that there was an increase in understanding of PBB-P2 tax subjects, tax objects, exemptions for PBBP2 tax objects, filling out tax object notification letters (SPOP) to the calculation of urban rural land and building taxes (PBB-P2) and the taxes collected could be implemented properly.
Manuel Vázquez Montalbán ante la cuestión soviética: Moscú de la Revolución (1990) y otros ecos de una militancia nostálgica
Authors: Luque Martínez Darío
Published: October 2024

The aim of this article is to connect the essay Moscú de la Revolución (1990) with the political ideology and the emotional framework that guided Manuel Vázquez Montalbán's literary project; namely, an antifrancoist commitment, inspired by Marxism and, albeit with its shadows, by the Russian revolutionary project. In addition to examining the literary content and emotional value of this essay, the article proposes a rereading of other texts that share its sensitivity, such as "Teoría de la desaparición del dinosaurio" (Theory of the disappearance of the dinosaur and the forewords to Calle del proletario rojo by Nina and Jean Kéhayan, La seule issue, El verdadero Lenin by Dmitri Volkogonov, and Lenin: A Biography by Robert Service. The combined analysis of these texts reveals a distinct subjective approach, masked by the ideological veil of Montalbán’s prose.

Authors: Juliano Fernanda Maria Souza , Theobald Melina Raquel , de Andrade Sônia Maria Oliveira
Published: October 2024

This article is the result of a qualitative study that aimed to understand how the lives of people living with HIV (PLHIV) were reorganized after at least one year of living with the disease. For this purpose, interviews were conducted with some generating questions preceded by characterization of the subjects. The methodology chosen for organizing the data was the Collective Subject Discourse (CSD), having as theoretical reference psychoanalysis and scientific productions related to the theme. The result refers to a thematic axis named “Subjective experience and adaptation from the disease”, which constituted three collective subject discourses (CSD), these were named by the central ideas (ICS): (1) resignification from the disease, (2) biopsychological repercussions of the diagnosis; and (3) silence with self-protection. It was concluded that there is not just one way to reorganize life from the diagnosis, but it is correct to state that the stigma of the disease has a direct influence on all subjects.

Published: October 2024

Given the concern about environmental contamination due to the intensive use of pesticides in Brazilian agriculture, such as in the state of Mato Grosso, it is necessary to analyze the particularities that active ingredients (AI) exert on the environment to help reduce their impacts. The Environmental Risk Index (IRA) is a means of identifying these damages. Thus, the objective of this study was to perform the IRA of the herbicides most commonly used in Mato Grosso to control weeds in soybean, corn and cotton crops. The survey was carried out by AI, based on data from the Mato Grosso Institute of Agricultural Defense, while the physicochemical characteristics of the herbicides, necessary for the IRA equations, were obtained from three databases (PPDB, PPD and IBAMA). The parameters used to construct the IRA were: persistence in the soil, leaching, volatility, dose and toxicological profile of the herbicides. The survey indicated 42 herbicides were used, but 11 compounds accounted for 98.2% of the total volume sold, with glyphosate being the first in the ranking, with a total mass of 134,138,025 kg ai sold in the last three years in Mato Grosso. The IRA results for the largest mass sold in decreasing order were: atrazine, diuron, trifluralin, glyphosate, 2,4-D, clomazone, S-metolachlor, diquat, haloxifop-methyl, clethodim and glufosinate-ammonium. The herbicides atrazine, MSMA, diuron, trifluralin and pendimethalin were the ai that presented the highest IRA. In general, all herbicides presented medium to very high toxicity levels, resulting in a worrying factor for ecosystems when they reach non-target organisms.
THE EVOLUTION OF COMMUNICATION AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES IN EDUCATION
Authors: de Faria Júnior Hélio Pena , da Silva Cristiana Barcelos , de Oliveira Fábio Machado , Paixão Marcus Vinicius Sandoval
Published: October 2024

This paper aims to describe, based on an analysis of what is contained in the literature, the introduction and evolution of information and communication technologies (ICT) in education, thus constructing a historical record of these technologies. The project is justified by the relevance of the topic and the importance that ICT represented during the pandemic period, practically saving education from two years of social isolation, leaving millions of students out of school, enabling, even with some difficulties encountered by teachers and students, the continuity of pedagogical activities, minimizing the educational losses of a period never seen before in the history of education. It is clear that these ICT should be incorporated into the pedagogical projects of the courses, since Ifes has an academic environment Moodle (Modular Dynamic Object-Oriented Learning Environment) available that enables pedagogical activities for teachers and students. Given the many new digital technologies that have emerged in recent times, it is possible to see that digital communication and information technologies have become a fertile field for technology companies, developers, and researchers in the area of ​​technology and education, since they have seen technologies as a tool capable of providing a transformation of teaching-learning methods and practices that are important for achieving pedagogical objectives, thus not diminishing the role of educators, nor even replacing them, but allowing some tasks and functions to be expanded and diversified. It is also worth noting that TDCI encompasses other sectors, becoming multidimensional with roots spread throughout society. The legislation that governs the introduction and use of technological equipment in the classroom has advanced and encouraged its use in everyday school activities.

Authors: da Conceição Hudson Victor Florentino , de Andrade Ana Júlia Ferreira , Carvalho Juliana Mendes , de Moraes Daniela Abreu
Published: October 2024

Violence against children and adolescents is considered a social and public health problem, with high prevalence in recent years and that can manifest itself in several ways. Health professionals, especially dentists (DSs), play a significant role in recognizing and reporting child abuse. Therefore, the objective of the current study is to analyze and discuss the conduct of DSs in these cases. For this purpose, a bibliographic research was carried out, through an exploratory review of the literature. The following databases were used: PubMed, BVS and Google Scholar with the restriction of publication between the years 2019 and 2024 through combinations between the descriptors “Child Abuse” and “Dentistry”. The literature shows that child abuse, including physical, psychological, sexual abuse and neglect, has serious consequences for the child. The dentist has the duty to identify signs of violence, such as oral lesions, and notify the Guardianship Council. Brazilian law requires health professionals to report suspected abuse, even without confirmation. Finally, it was pointed out that the CD plays a crucial role in identifying child abuse. When identifying signs of violence, the professional must immediately notify the authorities, according to the Statute of the Child and Adolescent (ECA). However, to act ethically and legally, it is necessary for the dentist to be properly trained and qualified, overcoming their barriers.

The aim of this study is to review the development of medical devices in neonatology, exploring technological advances, identifying innovations and challenges, and proposing recommendations for future research. The methodology involved a narrative review of the literature, searching databases such as PubMed, EBSCO, Cochrane, and IEEE Xplore, focusing on studies from the last ten years on medical devices for neonatology. The results highlight that technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning have improved the monitoring and prognosis of neonatal conditions, allowing for more precise and personalized interventions. 3D printing emerges as a promising tool for creating personalized medical devices, meeting the specific needs of each patient. Wearable devices for continuous monitoring of vital signs and advanced enteral and parenteral feeding devices have demonstrated a positive impact on neonatal health. Mechanical ventilators with gentler and smarter modes have reduced serious complications, and catheters with antimicrobial coatings have helped to reduce the incidence of neonatal sepsis. The conclusions indicate that technological innovations are fundamental to improving neonatal care. The integration of artificial intelligence, 3D printing and continuous monitoring has the potential to transform neonatology, improving clinical outcomes and the quality of life of newborns. However, challenges such as the variability of neonatal pathologies, cost and accessibility of devices and the need for adequate training of health professionals need to be addressed. Investment in continuous research, clinical validation and interdisciplinary training is recommended to ensure the effective adoption of these innovative technologies in daily clinical practices.

Published: October 2024

The choice of this theme is justified by the relevance and scope of the topic and by the need to deepen the sociological debate on social interaction. Discussions about space are not recent and there are several possible theoretical and methodological contributions. The main objective of this article is to discuss two contemporary theoretical models that seek to analyze the sociological dimension and compare the theories of Erving Goffman and Pierre Bourdieu on the social interaction of individuals in groups. First, the main contributions of each theorist in the educational field will be presented. Then, a critical comparison will be made between the theories on the social interaction of individuals in groups, highlighting the convergences and divergences of the theorists in question. Finally, the final considerations will reflect on the relevance of these theories for contemporary understanding in the field of education and social integration. It is worth pointing out that Goffman and Bourdieu's approaches converge, among others, in the sense of directing their gaze to the minutiae of social life, to everyday situations that may initially seem “natural”, but which, from a sociological perspective, can reveal information about social dynamics (reifications).
¿Fue la Reforma Agraria un buen instrumento para el desarrollo rural e integral del agro boliviano?
Authors: Iriarte Fernando Alberto Quevedo
Published: October 2024

El presente artículo va a abordar un fenómeno socio económico cuyo peso ha cambiado definitivamente el curso de la historia boliviana, dicho fenómeno aún sigue teniendo peso específico ya que ha transformado al conjunto del país. Para concretar lo que ha significado la Reforma Agraria, podemos referirnos por ejemplo al impacto en la transformación de la vida rural y urbana, generando un crecimiento acelerado de los centros urbanos y los aspectos inherentes a este proceso que ha provocado improductividad, inseguridad alimentaria, impacto ambiental, incremento de los flujos migratorios del campo a la ciudad, entre otras. Para explicar estos fenómenos de improductividad y otros aspectos que acarrea una Reforma Agraria empezaré explicando las cuatro Reformas Agrarias que se implementaron en Bolivia. Este desarrollo a profundidad se puede encontrar en mi investigación de año sabático (Quevedo, 2021, pág. 225) Orgánicamente, en la historia del país se han llevado a cabo cuatro reformas agrarias: la primera que reivindicaba el enunciado de que “la tierra es para quien la trabaja”, la segunda “la tierra es para el que puede comprarla”, por medio de la mercantilización del suelo agrícola, la tercera que plantea el “reconocimiento al derecho ancestral de los pueblos indígenas originarios a decidir sobre su destino”. Y la cuarta reforma queda implícita en las llamadas leyes incendiarias emitidas en varias gestiones de gobierno: ¨la tierra es de quien puede quemarla, ampliar la frontera agrícola y habilitarla para uso agrícola y/o agroindustrial”.

This study aims to investigate the influence of sensory marketing on the value perception of potential consumers of used bicycles. The research problem addresses whether the visual context, including a “clean” versus a “polluted” scenario, impacts the value perception of relatively experienced consumers regarding used bicycles. The objective is to understand how visual elements, including context and layout, shape consumers’ perception and influence their purchasing decisions. The literature review highlights relevant studies on the impact of layout on value perception and explores the connection between sensory marketing and purchasing decisions. The hypotheses formulated test the statistical difference in the value attributed to used bicycles based on different visual contexts, using the Mann-Whitney-Wilcoxon test. The method adopted will be an experimental design between groups, using the Completely Randomized Designs (CRD) method, with online recruitment of participants. The results demonstrate that the condition of the product, its history of use and disposable income of potential customers outweighed the influence of visual appeal in shaping the value perception of this product in an online environment.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is an inherited neuropathy that affects the peripheral nerves, resulting in foot deformities and impaired mobility in children. Early diagnosis is essential to prevent disease progression and to allow orthopedic interventions that improve function and quality of life. This paper reviews the initial clinical manifestations of CMT, diagnostic approaches, and the main orthopedic management strategies, highlighting the importance of early intervention with the use of orthoses and, when necessary, surgical techniques. The review also explores the prospects for functional improvement and symptomatic relief with appropriate treatment.

Published: October 2024

This article aims to analyze the interconnection between health and social protection in which Social Services operate, and its impact on the processes of access to basic rights for the elderly in Angola. This debate is the result of bibliographical and documentary research, guided by Marx's social theory. The results demonstrate that health and social protection policies and related services are expressions of the current state of contemporary bourgeois society, whose effects in Angola began in the second half of the 20th century, in the process of implementing dependent capitalism. In this context, marked by contradictions and challenges, Social Services is considered a profession that contributes to the fight for quality access to the rights of the elderly.

The need for new sources of renewable energy is something that is widely studied today. In several countries, the search for new sources of raw materials for biodiesel production is being evaluated and used. Among these sources is the use of animal fat waste. In this context, the use of fish waste is being evaluated and applied as an intensive source in the production of biodiesel. However, the development of technologies that can make the extraction of these fats viable is still a determining factor in the full use of these wastes. This study presents a review of the production of Nile Tilapia, farmed in captivity, as well as its use in the production of and application in the biodiesel production chain. This work, because it is a review of the potential for the use of waste, used a systematic assessment of the collection of studies, market assessments, and government agencies, which made it possible to obtain data on production and waste generation. For this purpose, searches were carried out on journal platforms and websites that involve the fish production chain. Thus, the verification of this new source of biomass in energy generation becomes viable for the development of new technologies that can add value to waste and reduce the environmental impacts caused by fish farming. The study indicates that there is a significant opportunity in the use of fish waste for the production of renewable fuels, specifically those that have a high lipid content, and their use for the production of biodiesel is possible.
SUSTAINABLE STRATEGIES FOR ODONATA MANAGEMENT IN FISH FARMING: REVIEW AND IMPLICATIONS
Authors: Fortunato Murilo Henrique Tank
Published: October 2024

This study conducted a systematic review of the literature on predation of Odonata larvae in fish farming, using databases such as Google Scholar and SciELO. The results showed that predation can reduce the survival of fry by up to 30%, impacting the productivity of ponds. Alternative control methods, such as natural extracts and entomopathogenic fungi, were analyzed, which proved to be effective without the negative effects of agrochemicals, as well as the use of prey, such as Chironomidae. The research highlighted the importance of sustainable management strategies and the preservation of Odonata diversity, which are essential for the health of aquatic ecosystems. In addition, the use of water quality monitoring technologies was considered essential to optimize larval management.
PHARMACOLOGICAL STRATEGIES TO PREVENT CARDIOVASCULAR EVENTS IN HIGH-RISK PATIENTS
Authors: Borges Júlia Caetano
Published: October 2024

INTRODUCTION: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain the leading cause of global mortality, and high-risk patients, such as those with a history of myocardial infarction, diabetes, uncontrolled hypertension, or severe dyslipidemia, are especially vulnerable to adverse cardiovascular events. Pharmacological strategies aimed at preventing these events in high-risk patients are essential to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with CVDs. These strategies include the use of antiplatelet agents, statins, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), and beta-blockers, which have shown efficacy in the secondary prevention of events such as myocardial infarction and stroke. OBJECTIVES: Given the importance of this topic, this study aims to explore the most effective pharmacological strategies to prevent cardiovascular events in patients considered at high risk. The study aims to elucidate the main drugs used, their mechanisms of action, as well as the relevance of their clinical application for the reduction of fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events in these patients. METHODOLOGY: The study was developed based on an integrative literature review, based on searches in the Virtual Health Library (VHL), PubMed and SciELO databases. The search terms used included: “Cardiovascular prevention”, “High-risk patients”, and “Pharmacological strategies”. Articles published in the last five years were selected to ensure the relevance and timeliness of the information. RESULTS: Pharmacological strategies to prevent cardiovascular events in high-risk patients include the use of antiplatelet agents such as aspirin, which reduces platelet aggregation and prevents arterial thrombosis. Statins, which reduce LDL cholesterol levels, have been shown to significantly reduce the risk of myocardial infarction and stroke. In addition, ACE inhibitors and beta-blockers have shown benefits in patients with heart failure and hypertension, reducing cardiovascular mortality. Individualizing treatment, considering the comorbidities and characteristics of each patient, is essential to optimize clinical results. CONCLUSION: Pharmacological strategies play a crucial role in the prevention of cardiovascular events in high-risk patients. The combination of medications such as antiplatelet agents, statins, ACE inhibitors and beta-blockers, when applied individually and according to clinical guidelines, can significantly reduce the incidence of serious cardiovascular events. Awareness of the importance of the correct use of these therapies and adherence to treatment are essential to improve the quality of life and increase the longevity of patients.
