Objective: First, this comparative analysis of comprehension aimed to guide care and assist with health education research and practice as indicated in mothers stories of learning. Second, this research aimed to determine the comprehension processes of participants by comparing and characterizing the quantity and quality of the concepts’ mothers use in their narratives. Maternal health literacy (MHL) allows mothers to apply health information across all healthcare settings to make decisions about their health. Comprehension and reasoning are essential MHL skills for applying health advice. Methods: Using narrative inquiry methodology and transformative learning theory as the lens, the comprehension processes of English-speaking South Asian Newcomer Mothers (SANMs) (n=7) were compared with those of English-speaking Canadian-born mothers (n=7). Through semi-structured interviews, the mothers discussed their comprehension of ultrasound examination preparation, health risk information, and shared decision making. Themes were identified using inductive thematic analysis, with two reviewers identifying latent themes concerning situational and sociocultural MHL practices. Then, excerpts were explicated using propositional analysis, which systematically identified the features of thought and behavior at an individual level, to identify semantic features of discourse comprehension as a form of methodological triangulation. Next, the narratives were quantified to identify latent patterns of comprehension processes, conceptual knowledge, and semantic discourse features. Results: The key findings indicated that mothers demonstrate MHL through reifying, posturing, and volition, and that all mothers engage in knowledge-building activities and experiential learning in their communities to learn relationally from each other. Conclusion: Ultimately, MHL empowers all mothers to become more engaged during medical appointments and in health decision making.

DENİZ İŞ HUKUKUNDA GENÇ GEMİ ÇALIŞANLARININ KORUNMASI
Authors: Baskan Ş. Esra
Published: April 2024

Zihinsel ve fiziksel olarak olgunluğa erişmemiş, aynı zamanda eğitimleri devam eden çocuk ve genç işçilerin bedensel, fiziksel ve ahlaki gelişimlerine engel olunmaması, aynı zamanda eğitimlerine zarar gelmemesi için çalışma hayatında özel olarak korunması gerekir. Bu itibarla çocuk ve genç işçilerin korunması iş hukukunun en önemli alanlarından biri olup, bir yandan Birleşmiş Milletler Çocuk Hakları Sözleşmesi, Gözden Geçirilmiş Avrupa Sosyal Şartı ve Uluslararası Çalışma Örgütü sözleşmelerinde diğer taraftan ulusal mevzuatımızda konuya ilişkin özel düzenlemelere yer verilmiştir. Söz konusu düzenlemeler genel olarak asgari bir çalışma yaşının öngörülmesi, çocuk ve genç işçilerin çalışabilecekleri işlerin ve çalışma sürelerinin sınırlanması, dinlenme sürelerinin arttırılması ile iş sağlığı ve güvenliğinde özel koruyucu önlemlere yer verilmesi şeklinde karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Genç gemi çalışanları ise, denizciliğin beraberinde getirdiği güç çalışma koşulları dolayısıyla ayrıca korumaya muhtaçtır. Buna rağmen 854 sayılı Deniz İş Kanunu’nda genç gemi çalışanlarına ilişkin olarak hiçbir düzenlemeye yer verilmemiştir. Gemi Adamları ve Kılavuz Kaptanlar Yönetmeliği ile 6331 sayılı İş Sağlığı ve Güvenliği Kanunu ve bu Kanun kapsamında çıkarılan yönetmelikler kapsamında yer alan bazı düzenlemeler genç gemi çalışanları için kimi hükümler içermekle birlikte yetersizdir. Zira gerek onaylamış olduğumuz Uluslararası Çalışma Örgütü sözleşmelerinde gerekse hukukumuz açısından henüz yürürlükte olmasa da Denizcilik Çalışma Sözleşmesinde (Maritime Labour Convention – 2006) (MLC 2006) genç gemi çalışanlarına ilişkin ayrıntılı düzenlemelere yer verilmiştir. Özellikle Denizcilik Çalışma Sözleşmesiyle gemilerde asgari çalışma yaşı kural olarak 16 olarak belirlenmiş, genç gemi çalışanlarının çalışma süreleri günde 8 saati ve haftada 40 saat ile sınırlandırılmış, yıllık ücretli izne ilişkin özel düzenlemeler yapılması öngörülmüş, genç gemi çalışanlarının iş sağlığı ve güvenliği konusunda da ayrıntılı düzenlemeler yapılmıştır. Çalışmamızda, deniz iş hukukunda genç gemi çalışanlarının korunması kapsamındaki düzenlemeler incelenmiş, özellikle Denizcilik Çalışma Sözleşmesi düzenlemeleri karşısında ulusal mevzuatımız değerlendirilmiştir.
ALMAN İLAÇ KANUNU’NA GÖRE İLAÇ ÜRETİCİSİNİN HUKUKİ SORUMLULUĞUNUN ALMAN HUKUKUNDAKİ DİĞER TEMEL ÖZEL HUKUK SORUMLULUK TÜRLERİ İLE KARŞILAŞTIRILMALI OLARAK İNCELENMESİ

Sanayi devriminin başlamasıyla ilaçların eczaneler yerine ilaç endüstrilerinde kimyasal içerik kullanılarak üretilmesi, hastaların zarar görmelerine neden olmuş, özellikle hatalı ilaçların geniş çapta etki göstermesi ilaçtan doğan sorumluluğu gündeme getirmiştir. Alman hukukunda üreticinin sorumluluğu esas olarak haksız fiil sorumluluğuna dayandırılmakla birlikte ilaç üreticisinin sorumluluğu kusursuz sorumluluk temelinde Alman İlaç Kanununda düzenlenmiştir. Buna göre tüketiciye dağıtılan ve zorunlu pazarlama iznine tabi olan veya yönetmelikle pazarlama izni gerekliliğinden muaf tutulan beşeri bir tıbbi ürünün uygulanması, kişinin ölmesine ya da zarar görmesine neden olursa, söz konusu tıbbi ürünü piyasaya süren ilaç girişimcisi, kendi kusuru bulunmasa bile zarar gören tarafın uğradığı zararı tazmin etmekle yükümlü olacaktır. Alman İlaç Kanunu’ nun uygulama alanı dışında kalan hallerde ilaç üreticisinin sorumluluğu bakımından Alman Ürün Sorumluluğu Kanunu ve Alman Gen Teknik Kanunu uygulama alanı bulabilmektedir.

Authors: Epp V. , Osetrin K.
Published: April 2024

For the perturbative model of a plane gravitational wave on a flat background of Minkowski space-time, electromagnetic radiation from a charged cloud in the field of a gravitational wave, detected by a remote observer, was found. It is shown that the charge density in the cloud does not change, and the radiation is generated by currents induced by the gravitational wave. The angular distribution of the radiation is obtained. If the refractive index of the cloud medium is greater than unity, Cherenkov-type radiation is generated.

Published: April 2024

На основе литературных данных о величинах магнитного поля построены модели магнитного поля магнитных звезд разных типов пекулярности HD 57682, HD81009 и получены параметры их магнитного поля. У HD 57682, как и у других горячих объектов, обнаруживаются различия физических условий в области магнитных экваторов и в области близ магнитных полюсов, которые пока не поддаются интерпретации. Звезда HD81009 по своим свойствам является типичным представителем магнитных звезд SrCrEu-типа, кроме ее двойственности.
Based on literature data on magnetic field values, models of the magnetic field
of magnetic stars of different types of peculiarity HD57682, HD81009 were
constructed and the parameters of their magnetic field were obtained. HD57682,
like other hot objects, exhibits differences in physical conditions in the region of
the magnetic equators and in the region near the magnetic poles, which are not
yet amenable to interpretation. The star HD81009 in its properties is a typical
representative of SrCrEu-type magnetic stars, except for it's the binar system.

We have carried out a spectral classification by the activity types for a subsample of blazars from the BZCAT v.5 Catalogue, namely the Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars (FSRQ) candidates, designated in the catalogue as BZQ subtype objects. The classification is based on the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) homogeneous medium-resolution optical spectroscopy and along with the standard BPT-type diagnostic diagrams, we have applied our newly introduced fine classification scheme with subtypes of quasars and considering many more features. Out of 1909 BZQ objects, 618 having SDSS spectra were classified, resulting in 445 broad-line QSOs, 19 narrow-line QSOs, 138 broad-line Seyferts, 8 narrow-line Seyferts, and 2 Emission-line galaxies without a proper classification. We have calculated the absolute magnitudes and luminosities for all objects to distinguish QSOs from Seyferts, as defined by the Catalogue of QSOs and Active Galaxies, -22m.25 separation limit. This way 148 objects changed their BZCAT subtypes between BZQ to BZG, and also 6 BZQ objects to BZU.

A research on the people’s perception and expectations and the behaviours of the cooperative partners in Balıkesir
Authors: Başaran Hayati , Irmak Ebru
Published: April 2024

The study attempts to learn the perceptions of people living in Balıkesir about cooperatives and their expectations from cooperatives. It also aims to learn the thoughts of cooperative members about cooperative activities and the behavior of each member. Within the scope of the research, 724 people from Balıkesir were interviewed. Meetings were held for discussions. The public’s perception of cooperatives in Balıkesir is generally positive. However, unsuccessful attempts and the difficulty of establishing a joint business also cause negative criticism. The public expects supervision and educational assistance from the government and financial support from the municipality. There are many reasons to become a member of cooperatives. However, the first thing to do is to facilitate the work related to the activity. Acting in solidarity with other people is also an important motivation for becoming a member. In Balıkesir, it is not regular for cooperative members to attend cooperative general assembly meetings. At the same time, their desire to take part in cooperative management and control bodies is low. The success level of cooperatives varies according to the expectations of the members. In Balıkesir, 36.7% of the members find the technical information provision activity of the cooperative sufficient, while 32.7% find the product marketing activity sufficient. The majority of cooperative members in Balıkesir find the financial aid activities of cooperatives incomplete. At the same time, they generally find the product purchase price of cooperatives inadequate.

Authors: Demir Sevinç Emine Hülya , Demirdağ Elif Didem , Gönder Aykut , Gökdeniz Burak , Kılıçarslan Mehmet Ali
Published: April 2024

Aim: To assess the impact of various beverages on the fracture resistance of CAD/CAM polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and monolithic zirconia materials.
Materials and Method: We fabricated eighty CAD/CAM materials from PEEK polymer (CopraPeek; Whitepeaks Dental Solutions GmbH, Germany) and monolithic zirconia (inCoris TZI; Dentsply Sirona Systems GmbH, Bensheim, Germany), with ten samples per group. These samples were submerged in either distilled water, cola, coffee, or red wine and stored at 37°C for 12 days. We utilized a universal testing machine (Lloyd LRX; Lloyd Instruments Ltd., West Sussex, UK) to measure each sample’s fracture resistance. The t-test provided a comparison of normally distributed variables between the two groups. For multiple group comparisons, we executed an analysis of variance (ANOVA).
Results: A statistically significant difference was observed between the PEEK and zirconia groups in terms of maximum load and elastic load-bearing capacity values (p˂0.05), with zirconia materials yielding higher values. However, there was no critical difference in these measures obtained from different solutions for neither PEEK nor zirconia samples (p>0.05).
Conclusion: CAD/CAM monolithic PEEK material stored in various solutions demonstrated lower fracture resistance and elastic strength than monolithic zirconia materials. Despite this, PEEK exhibited the highest fracture resistance to intraoral occlusal forces. Accordingly, due to its chemically inert nature and superior force absorption, we recommend PEEK as a viable alternative material for posterior crowns in fixed restorations.

Aim: Oral cancer ranks among the most prevalent cancers worldwide. Imaging methods play a vital role in assessing patients. This study aimed to evaluate the age, sex, and localization distribution as well as panoramic and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) image findings in patients with
oral malignancy with bone involvement.
Materials and Method: Patients who were histopathologically diagnosed with malignant oral lesions at Gazi University, Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Oral Pathology between 2009 and 2023 were reviewed. Patients with oral malignancies whose panoramic images or CBCT images were available in the radiology archive were included in this study. Age-sex distribution was recorded. Localization of lesions and radiological features such as internal structures, borders, and effects on surrounding tissues were evaluated.
Results: The mean age of the patients was 58.2 years; nine of them were female and thirteen were male. The incidence of malignancies included in this study was higher in men than in women, and the mandible/maxilla ratio was equal. The most common primary tumor was squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) (n=12). SCC lesions caused destruction in the cortical borders of neighboring structures in the region where they were located and showed the potential to spread toward these regions. Mucoepidermoid carcinoma was observed as an unilocular radiolucent lesion with clear borders, and it was determined that it destroyed the cortical bone.
Conclusion: Panoramic radiography and CBCT images are valuable imaging methods in the evaluation of bone involvement of oral malignancies.

Legal Empowerment of the Poor in India
Authors: Phadkule Pratik , Agarwal Kavya , Singh Naresh
Published: April 2024

The interplay between law and poverty is intricate. Obstructions to justice reinforce poverty and marginalisation. Poverty can be viewed as both a cause and a result of exclusion from the rule of law. Against this backdrop, the Legal Empowerment of the Poor (LEP) has become highly relevant. It has been realised that poverty is not just related to income; the law can play a significant role in poverty reduction. The legal empowerment agenda considers law as a medium for the self-empowerment of poor people. The goal of Legal Empowerment of the Poor is to address the fundamental causes of exclusion, vulnerability, and poverty. This paper explores the Legal Empowerment of the poor, focusing on India.

Authors: Bhavnani Sharan , Narang Prashant
Published: April 2024

Public service delivery and guarantee laws are instrumental in fostering good governance and economic growth, yet the legal framework in India remains fragmented across independent state legislations. This research paper aims to elaborate on the principles that should guide a model law, drawn from global best practices, and explores the influence of contemporary public management values on the evolution of the Indian legal landscape. The recent introduction of a national public service guarantee law has rekindled the debate on the need for a coherent framework. The paper compiles a list of global best practices for modernizing India's public service delivery laws. The research contributes to the ongoing discourse and emphasizes the significance of public service delivery in promoting inclusive and sustainable growth and development in India. It may prove to be a ready resource for creating a unified and effective legal structure that aligns with the needs of society and businesses. By synthesizing historical perspectives, current challenges, and future prospects, this paper serves as a valuable resource for policymakers, legal scholars, and practitioners seeking to understand and shape the future of public service delivery laws in India.
VICTOR HUGO VE İBRAHİM HAKKI'NIN BİR ŞİİRİNİN METİNLERARASILIK İLE İNCELENMESİ
Authors: Koçak Şükran
Published: April 2024

Metinlerarasılık, bir veya daha fazla metin arasındaki etkileşim ve metinlerin başka bir metin içinde yeniden yazılmasıdır. Öncel bir metnin başka bir metinde yeniden yazılması metni yeniden canlandırmaktadır. Bu durum eski metni unutulmaktan kurtardığı gibi farklı bir bakış açısıyla yeniden ortaya koyar. Bir metinde yazarlar birbirinden habersiz olarak aynı konu, farklı kavramlarla içerikler meydana getirebilir, farklı bir bakışla metne yaklaşabilir. Victor Hugo ve İbrahim Hakkı tarafından yazılan aynı tema etrafında oluşturulan şiirleri buna bir örnek teşkil etmektedir. Neredeyse aralarında bir asırlık bir zaman dilimi bulunan iki şâirin şiirlerinde konu, muhteva yönüyle bazı benzerlikler bulunur. Bu çalışmada Victor Hugo tarafından yazılan Gece adlı şiiri ile İbrahim Hakkı’nın Gecelerde redifli gazeli Metinlerarasılık açısından incelenmiştir. İnceleme sırasında metinlerin anlam örüntüsünü ve benzerliklerini açık bir şekilde ortaya koymak için göstergebilim Metinlerarasılık bakış açısıyla birlikte kullanılmıştır. Göstergebilim, gösteren ve gösterilen olarak iki ögesi bulunur. Göstergebilim, anlamın ortaya konmasına yardımcı olan bilimdir. Göstergebilim kuramının Metinlerarasılık kuramına katkısı olmuştur. İki şiirin anlaşılmasını ve benzerliklerin ortaya konmasını kolaylaştırmış, metinler arası etkileşimleri gözler önüne sermiştir. Metinlerarasılık kuramı ve Victor Hugo hakkında kısa bir bilgi verildikten sonra şiirler anlam yönüyle incelenmiş her inceleme sonunda bir değerlendirmeye yer verilmiştir. Anlam incelemesinden sonra iki şiirin söz dizimi incelemesi yapılmıştır. Söz dizimi ve Göstergebilimsel inceleme ile ortaya çıkan sonuçlar bir tablo hâline getirilerek nihai bir değerlendirme yapılmıştır.

These are "preparation of the data set and generation of the decision matrix", "normalization of the data", "generation of the reference series", "generation of the absolute value table", "generation of the grey relational coefficient matrix", "calculation and ranking of the grey relational degrees". Results: According to the analysis results, the highest technical performance value was calculated as 0.7654, while the lowest technical performance value was calculated as 0.3949. Thus, the top 3 goalkeepers were determined as Ronwen Williams (South Africa), Edouard Mendy (Senegal), and Babacar Niass (Mauritania). The last 3 goalkeepers were determined as Richard Ofori (Ghana), Ibrahim Koné (Guinea), and Baboucarr Gaye (Gambia). Conclusion: According to the results of the research, Ronwen Williams (South Africa), who won the Golden Glove Award and was selected for the team of the tournament at the Africa Cup of Nations, was determined as the goalkeeper with the highest performance. His national team South Africa completed the tournament in 3rd place, despite being ranked 19th among 24 teams in terms of market value. Similar conclusions were obtained for the remained goalkeepers. It is expected that this conclusion will provide significant contributions for stakeholders such as researchers, goalkeepers, coaches, scouts, and trainers.

The agroforests of the east coast of Madagascar
Authors: Danthu Pascal , Sarron Julien , Penot Eric , Mariel Juliette , Razafimaharo Vololoniriana , Michel Isabelle
Published: April 2024

This article explores the significance, challenges, and future prospects of Madagascar’s cash crops: vanilla, cloves, lychees, black pepper and cinnamon. Cultivated by small-scale farmers in biodiverse agroforestry plots, these cash crops have historical importance in Madagascar's export-oriented economy that has seen Madagascar become the world's leading producer of vanilla, the second largest exporter of cloves and essential clove oil, and the leading exporter of lychees to the European market. Despite contributing substantially to the country's exports, farmers remain vulnerable, as the markets for these products are controlled by global food industry giants and are subject to significant price fluctuations. Other factors that contribute towards farmer’s vulnerability include climate change, local security conditions, competition from other producing countries and the introduction of synthetic vanillin. Despite the volatilities, farmers’ income and food security remain tied to these cash crops. Diversification is recommended to ensure better resilience against volatile conditions, including diversification of crops, land management practices, and product uses. By adapting agroforests to integrate a variety of cash crops and food crops, farmers’ income and food security will be protected long-term. Further research on agro-biodiversity management is now needed to continue to mitigate market dynamics and environmental challenges.

Grenzeloos toegang tot nationale wetgeving. Over nut en noodzaak van Engelse vertalingen en interoperabiliteitsstandaarden

Anders dan inmiddels in een aantal andere landen gebruikelijk is, wordt onze wetgeving alleen in het Nederlands gepubliceerd. Dit vormt niet alleen een hindernis voor hier verblijvende mensen die onze taal niet machtig zijn, maar het zet Nederland ook op achterstand in de interstatelijke regelgevingsconcurrentie. In ‘Grenzeloos toegang tot nationale wetgeving. Over nut en noodzaak van Engelse vertalingen en interoperabiliteitsstandaarden’ onderzoekt de auteur allereerst het juridisch kader met betrekking tot de beschikbaarstelling van (naar het Engels) vertaalde regelgeving. Vervolgens beschrijft hij hoe ook internationale technische standaarden kunnen bijdragen aan een betere grensoverschrijdende doorzoekbaarheid van nationale wettendatabanken, onder meer met betrekking tot richtlijnimplementatie.
Exploring the Impact of Nutrition and Physical Activity on Human Metabolism
Authors: Hazim Habibullah , Zalmai Mohammad Rasool , Bahir Hizbullah
Published: April 2024

Background: The human body acquires energy substances through diet and consumes them through exercise, completing the metabolism process. This article aims to analyze the impact of metabolism concerning diet and scientific exercise to emphasize the importance of these factors in promoting physical health. Methods: The research delves into the effects of diet and exercise on energy metabolism, focusing on energy balance, nutrient oxidation, and metabolic flexibility. Various methodologies are employed to measure energy intake and expenditure accurately, crucial for understanding energy homeostasis and developing effective interventions. Findings: Exercise and Diet Influence Metabolism: Physical exercise and dietary interventions play a significant role in influencing energy metabolism, improving metabolic flexibility, and managing cardiometabolic diseases like obesity and diabetes. Energy Metabolism Measurement: Current methodologies for measuring energy intake and expenditure provide valuable insights into energy homeostasis regulation. These methods help researchers conduct high-quality obesity research by assessing various aspects of energy metabolism. Impact of Exercise on Metabolism: Studies suggest that extreme exercise combined with calorie restriction may not lead to sustainable weight loss due to metabolic adaptations like reduced resting metabolic rates. Muscle loss during rapid weight loss can contribute to lower metabolic rates. Dietary Carbohydrates and Exercise: Research highlights the interplay between dietary carbohydrate intake, exercise, appetite regulation, and energy intake. Low-carbohydrate diets combined with exercise show promising effects on body mass reduction and improved fat and carbohydrate metabolism. Conclusion: The analysis underscores the critical role of diet and exercise in human metabolism. By understanding how these factors impact energy balance, nutrient oxidation, and metabolic flexibility, individuals can make informed choices to enhance their physical health through scientific and reasonable lifestyle modifications.
Integration of Modified Classical Conjugate Gradient Methods for Unconstrained Optimization
Authors: B. Onuoha Oluwaseun
Published: April 2024

The integration of modified classical conjugate gradient methods (CGMs) for unconstrained optimization represents a crucial and evolving area of research within the field of optimization algorithms. Over time, numerous studies have put forth diverse modifications and novel approaches to enhance the effectiveness of classical CGMs. These modifications aim to address specific challenges and improve the overall performance of optimization algorithms in unconstrained scenarios. In order to tackle unconstrained optimization challenges and improve our understanding of their synergies, this ongoing study aims to unify different modified classical CGMs. Conventional CGMs have proven effective for optimization tasks, and a range of different approaches have been produced by carefully modifying these techniques. The main goal of this paper is to combine these modified versions, with particular attention to those that have similar numerators. The integration process involves systematically merging the advantageous aspects of these modified methods to develop not only innovative but also more resilient approaches to unconstrained optimization problems. The ultimate goal of this unification effort is to capitalize on the strengths inherent in different approaches to create a cohesive framework that significantly improves overall optimization performance. To thoroughly assess the efficacy of the integrated methods, a series of comprehensive performance tests are conducted. These tests include a meticulous comparison of outcomes with those of classical CGMs, providing valuable insights into the relative strengths and weaknesses of the modified approaches across diverse optimization scenarios. The evaluation criteria encompass convergence rates, solution accuracy, and computational efficiency. The conclusive outcome demonstrates that the unified approaches consistently outperform individual methods across all three crucial evaluation criteria.
Digital Fabrication for Circular Timber Construction: A Case Study
Authors: Reisach Domink , Schütz Stephan , Willman Jan , Schneider Sven
Published: April 2024

The European timber industry has successfully implemented the cascading utilization of wood for several decades, downcycling material resources at the end of each product cycle by turning them into new industrial commodities through additional manufacturing procedures. In its current implementation, this approach is effective in keeping wooden materials in circulation. However, a significant amount of material still reaches the end-of-life stage through incineration prematurely, constituting a considerable waste of valuable resources. Therefore, we propose repurposing low-quality, low-engineered waste wood for architectural applications to avoid unnecessary downcycling processes. Specifically, we suggest a digital design and fabrication method to build tectonic structures using repurposed timber offcuts. As a case study, we present a pavilion structure built at a 1:1 scale, demonstrating the potential of digital technologies for circular timber construction. Based on this case study, we discuss how digital fabrication and material grading can foster a transition towards a circular built environment.

Published: April 2024

The societal pressure for more sustainable agricultural practices drives interest in organic farming, especially within family agriculture, although it has not yet reached the efficacy of traditional agriculture. Effective Microorganisms (EM) hold promise as supplements to organic fertilization, as they accelerate organic matter decomposition and enhance nutrient availability for plants. This study investigated the impact of two types of EM collected in Alegre and Barra de São Francisco, Espírito Santo State, on pepper cultivation, comparing them with commercial EM and standard organic fertilization. Parameters such as plant height, stem diameter, number and mass of fruits, and microbial composition were analyzed. The Alegre EM stood out, yielding better growth and production metrics. The Barra de São Francisco EM also had a positive impact, particularly on fresh aerial part mass and height. Microbiological analysis revealed differences in microbial communities among the EM. It is concluded that the use of EM in conjunction with organic fertilization can benefit pepper cultivation.

A enfermagem em serviços de emergência representa uma força de trabalho vulnerável ao adoecimento. Durante a pandemia, o risco de infecções e a elevada demanda de trabalho aumentou essa vulnerabilidade. Deve-se investigar o impacto após a pandemia. Avaliar o perfil do absenteísmo-doença nos períodos antes, durante e após a pandemia de COVID-19 em profissionais de enfermagem de um serviço de emergência. Estudo transversal, retrospectivo, quantitativo, desenvolvido no serviço de emergência de um hospital do sul do Brasil. Os dados foram disponibilizados pelo setor de medicina ocupacional, com uma  amostra de 1357 afastamentos, de 146 profissionais de enfermagem. Período de março/2019 a maio/2022, perfazendo cortes temporais de “pré-pandemia”, “pandemia” e “pós-pandemia”. Realizadas análises descritivas e inferenciais. Seguiu-se preceitos éticos. CAAE: 69221923.0.0000.5327. Houve um aumento no absenteísmo ao longo dos períodos (p<0,001). A taxa de absenteísmo aumentou de 2,3% para 3,9% durante a pandemia, e manteve-se elevada (3,7%) após a pandemia (p<0,001). Covid-19 foi a causa mais prevalente de afastamento na pandemia (p<0,001), enquanto lesões osteomusculares foram a causa mais prevalente nos outros períodos (p=0,014). Os técnicos de enfermagem apresentaram mais afastamentos por lesões osteomusculares do que enfermeiros (p<0,001). Houve redução nos afastamentos por doenças cardiovasculares (p=0,028) e cirurgias (p=<0,001) durante e após a pandemia. Profissionais com mais de 54 anos apresentaram afastamentos mais longos que outras idades (p<0,001). Não houve variação nos afastamentos por adoecimento psicológico durante a pandemia. Pôde-se identificar um aumento significativo no adoecimento e afastamento dos profissionais durante a pandemia, que perdurou após a pandemia. Mudanças no perfil de absenteísmo que surgiram durante a pandemia não retornaram ao normal após a pandemia. Foi possível elucidar fatores sociodemográficos e laborais que influenciam no perfil de absenteísmo.
