Published: August 2023

Background. The aim of the study was to evaluate total hip arthroplasty in terms of clinical and functional outcomes, rate of complications and hospitalization, as a treatment of choice for displaced femoral neck fractures.Materials and methods.We retrospectively reviewed the data of 526 patients with THA operated on in our department between January 2017 and December 2021. Clinical examinations, functional outcome assessment and radiographic evaluation were performed during follow-up. Patients were evaluated at the following time points: postoperatively at 3 days, 6 weeks, 12 weeks and 1 year, and we recorded surgery related data, complications, Visual Analogue Scale pain score, Harris Hip Score, the Western Ontario McMaster Osteoarthritis Index, and range of motion. Results. Low intraoperative blood loss, short surgical time, short hospitalization, early mobilization of the patient and a good range of motion testify that the modified direct lateral approach is a valuable procedure for the patients with THA. A VAS score evaluated at 3 days and 6 weeks indicated a very good overall postoperative experience. The HHS and Womac scores were evaluated at 6 weeks, 12 weeks and 1 year and showed excellent results. Conclusion. THA for active patients with a displaced fracture of the femoral neck is an excellent treatment option which provides lasting pain relief, a high level of function and very low rates of reoperation.

O feijão é uma das culturas mais cultivadas em solos brasileiros. Com o crescente aumento da população, a dificuldade de produzir cada vez mais em áreas menores, tem se tornado um constante desafio. Como os solos brasileiros em sua maioria, são altamente intemperizados, ácidos e de baixa fertilidade natural, aumentar a produtividade é uma preocupação recorrente. Em função disso, a dependência de insumos externos, se faz necessário desenvolver técnicas de produção, que envolvam resíduos orgânicos como fonte de adubação, associado a uma produção mais sustentável e que diminua os custos para o produtor rural. Nesse contexto se objetivou avaliar a eficiência da fertilização orgânica: compostagem de resíduos orgânicos urbano - CROP, química: fosfato monoamônico (MAP), no fornecimento de fósforo para a cultura do feijoeiro em sistema de plantio direto. Assim, foi desenvolvido um experimento, objetivando avaliar a eficiência agronômica dos dois adubos, com o delineamento experimental inteiramente ao acaso (DIC), constituído de cinco dosagens de MAP (0 kg ha-1; 150 kg ha-1; 250 kg ha-1 350 kg ha-1; 400 kg ha-1) e cinco dosagens de CROP (0 t ha-1; 1 t ha-1; 2 t ha-1; 4 t ha-1; 8 t ha-1), com dez repetições de cada tratamento. Os dados obtidos de produtividade média de feijão e o número médio de vagens foram submetidos à análise de variância pelo teste F e não apresentaram diferenças significativas em nenhuma das variáveis analisadas, denotando a não necessidade de adubação na área produzida.

Food security is essential because it is directly related to human health and well-being. When food is contaminated by bacteria, fungi, parasites, chemicals or foreign bodies, it can cause a range of illnesses, from mild food poisoning to serious illnesses that can lead to death. Foodborne illnesses (EDDs) arising from the consumption of such contaminated food are substantially relevant to public health. Its occurrence systematically triggers damages to various spheres of society, including the economic sector, due to absenteeism, compromise of trade and depletion of industrial activities. Thus, food hygiene, in recent years, has been the subject of increasing interest. Objective: To review the literature regarding the microbiological profile of foods marketed in the state of Pernambuco. Literature Review: Regarding the bacterial profile, the studies included in this review identified contamination in the samples in the following proportions: fecal coliforms (20%), Salmonella (55%), Escherichia coli (72%), Staphylococcus genus (71%), Listeria monocytogenes (25%). Regarding the mycological profile, contamination by Aspergillus flavus (70%), Penicillium (60%), Fusarium (80%), Aspergillus parasitic us (80%) was identified. In addition, bacterial and fungal toxins were identified in 65% of the samples. Final considerations: The presence of different bacteria and fungi with pathogenic potential, in addition to their toxins, in foods marketed in Pernambuco reflect the importance of promoting good food handling practices as a preventive strategy for DTA.

Published: August 2023

This abstract aims to discuss the Experience Report provided through the experience of Supervised Internship I of the students of the 7th period of Social Work of FALUB, developed between August and November 2022 at the Social Assistance Reference Center - CRAS. Initially, it should be noted that the Graduation in Social Work requires internships in different socio-occupational spaces specific to the profession. Our proposal here is to highlight the importance of this insertion and contact with the professional exercise, in order to train the students in the development of a practice based on the investigative and critical dimensions, emphasizing the attributions of the social worker and the challenges faced in the professional scope. About the internship field, the CRAS is a service unit of Basic Protection of SUAS, present in the Social Assistance Policy, focusing on the promotion of the guarantee of social rights. The knowledge acquired was possible through the monitoring of the social worker as a field supervisor, developing activities to examples of follow-up in home visits, particularized care, observation of technical instruments and other attributions inherent to the profession. In this sense, it is possible to affirm through our reports that the social worker has his performance in relation to the confrontation of the expressions of the social question, in a context that evidences the social inequality, and political and cultural influences of the social classes. Thus, their professional practice is guided by their theoretical-methodological, ethical-political and technical-operative framework, which enable a critical reflection of reality and direction in commitment to the realization of social rights. Finally, we also highlight the problems posed to the profession, especially those of a managerial structural nature, which end up allowing students to reflect on the conflicts encountered and the strategies and positions specific to the direction of Social Work.
Contributions of health process management and its impact on hospital management
Authors: Vizzoni Alexandre Gomes , Ferreira Paulo Henrique da Costa , Fagundes Michael Jacob
Published: August 2023

The role of hospital manager is invariably complex, regardless of the region, in fact that, even in certain aspects, health services are more challenging in some countries, due to the regulation of beds, financing and technologies available. Added to the extensive list of managerial demands, the requirement for specific knowledge in the management of human and physical resources. The influence of the fragmented model of work organization, in which each professional performs portions of the work without an integration with the other areas involved, has been pointed out as one of the reasons that hinder the accomplishment of a more integrative and better quality health work, both from the perspective of those who perform it and for those who enjoy it. From the moment that health professionals, who work directly with the patient, occupy coordinations, as they ascend in the organization, they begin to perform more administrative tasks. As an example, it is possible to notice that a nurse or doctor who coordinates an inpatient unit, perform more administrative functions and almost no technique. They use their technical expertise to act in the leadership. These professionals, when occupying certain positions, do not always understand the administrative activities. With this, the hospital loses a good technician and may not gain a good boss. This paper has a reflective description about the hospital management process.

Published: August 2023

This study takes in consideration one of the toughest environmental challenges we face nowadays, the deforestation. Studies on environmental control and analysis through remote sensing have already permeated the academic fields, the more information we have, the better our chances to fight outbreaks of deforestation and to preserve the native vegetation cover of a region are. Paraíso das Águas/ Mato Grosso do Sul is in the Cerrado, one of the Brazilian biomes most afflicted by deforestation, therefore, georeferencing was the tool used to monitor the problem, through the avaliation of the indices of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Normalized Difference Built-Up Index (NDBI), so that this information can be used in the future to control and orientate the process of urban and sustainable growth and Development of the municipality. Our data highlight that the most deforestation in the municipality is to open spaces for farming, which underscores the fact that these activities require a more rigorous and adequate local environment control, taking in consideration that this is their largest source of income.

Published: August 2023

Initiatives aimed at citizen participation, transparency and the use of technologies have led public management to new directions. Open government is an international initiative that encourages governments that are more transparent, accountable and open to social participation. An interesting initiative applied in Brazil is the proactive dissemination of information of collective interest to society by these bodies and entities, including federal institutions of higher education (IFES), due to their social role and potential for disseminating knowledge to society. . In this context, the objective of this work is to identify which are the themes of collective interest in IFES for the due fulfillment of active transparency. For this, a bibliographic survey, a documentary research and a systematic mapping study were carried out, enhancing the results found. As a result, some general and specific themes of collective interest in IFES were identified.

Methods: Different categories of Podcasts were created: shorter/longer; with/without guests and disease-related issues or other topics about prevention/health education. After that, the audios were edited and submitted on platforms: Results: It was analyzed through the data generated by the published episodes. It was observed that duration vs several reproductions did not correlate with (p=0.2521). Then, the presence/absence of guests (p=0.1779). However, themes related to infectious and chronic diseases obtained more significant results (p=0.0466) when compared to the other topics. Also, we noticed that our listeners are primarily men aged between 18 and 27 years old and residing in Brazil. Conclusion: Podcasts may be able to disseminate knowledge, however, themes and the type of audience must be considered to choose this kind of approach.

Published: August 2023

Motivating and preparing students for the changes that the world of work imposes is challenging and requires a renewal in the teaching and learning process. In order for education to fulfill its social and formative role, educational approaches should provide students with experience in real problems. In this sense, Project-Based Learning (PBL) is a suitable proposal for the didactic-pedagogical process of universities. The objective of this study is to analyze scientific publications in recent years on the application of PBL in higher education. For this purpose, a descriptive exploratory research was carried out, based on a scoping review. 355 works were identified in the literature, which after applying eligibility criteria resulted in 52 articles (14.6%), and after analyzing the complete article, 14 (27%) remained and served as a support to substantiate the present work. The analysis allowed us to observe that PBL provides students with a direct relationship with real challenges in the industry, finding solutions and treatments for identified problems, which allows the development of competencies based on applied knowledge.

Among the diversity of students in the school context, there are those who still have little identification in the regular classroom, including Double Exceptionality (DE), that is, Asperger's Syndrome (SA) and High Skills (AH). Due to gaps in the initial and continuing training of teachers that enable them to recognize the characteristics of specific human talents, the biggest loser in this situation is the student. Qualitative research where the object researched is the trajectory of the student XD (fictitious name) in the school environment. The type of study is the single case study, which places the case as the focus of the research. The Medical Evaluation showed a clearly above average position in intellectual capacity and an average above expected for age and schooling, with percentile equal to or higher than 40% for a group of the same age group; his cognitive development presented some distortions with delays, his academic performance being impaired due to limitations in social interactions, in addition to severe blockages in relation to the environment, with reactions to pressure, anxiety, inadequate feelings, which made him highly attached to his imagination and fantasy, bringing the feeling of a dangerous, uncertain, rigid, inflexible world. In this case, communication increased as trust was established and it was possible to perceive the set of experiences of the subject of the report from the stimulus of a game, since playfulness had a positive role in this process linked to difficulties. The oral communication skill was stimulated with gamification and graphic representation, stimulated by the interest in the English language. The partnership with an institution with a gamification and robotics project greatly facilitated the development of XD as an individual in society, strengthening ties, affirming trust and opening new professional horizons. A particular actor, the Teacher Coordinator of the Pedagogical Center, and the collaboration of the entire school community leveraged and sustained XD's educational inclusion.

Published: August 2023

Worldwide, preterm birth accounts for 9 to 12 percent of all birth-related death and morbidity among infants. Most reliably predicting preterm delivery is the length of the cervical canal in 16 - 24 weeks of pregnancy. A cervical length of 25-35 mm during 16–24 weeks of pregnancy is considered to be borderline. Role of progesterone is quite important during pregnancy in preventing contractions. The purpose of this research is to do a comparison of the efficacy of vaginal progesterone versus no treatment in preventing spontaneous preterm labour when a short cervix is diagnosed by TIFFA scan. 120 antenatal cases at 16 to 24 weeks of gestation were chosen. 60 patients with borderline short cervix were taken, out of which 30 patients who received vaginal progesterone were taken as cases, and 30 others who did not receive were taken as the control. 30 patients with the normal cervix who did not receive progesterone and 30 women who had smaller cervix who received vaginal progesterone were observed for their outcome. It was observed that in case (borderline cervix) group, there was more term deliveries (67 %), in control (borderline cervix) was more early preterm deliveries (57 %), in normal group was 100 % term deliveries and in short cervix group was more early preterm deliveries (43 %). Vaginal delivery was seen in 83 % of patients in the case (borderline cervix),70 % in control (borderline cervix),90 % in the normal cervix, and 90 % in the short cervix group

Introduction: central venous catheterization is a common procedure in critically ill pediatric patients, but its accurate and safe performance remains a challenge.Objective: to determine if ultrasound-guided central venous catheterization improves the first-attempt success rate and reduces the risk of complications compared with the landmark-based approach in pediatric critically ill patients.Methods: a prospective study was carried out that included 100 critical pediatric patients, divided into two groups: ultrasound-guided catheterization (n=43) and anatomical references (n=47). Demographic and clinical data were collected, variables of interest were recorded, and logistic regression analysis adjusted for patient age, access site, and operator was performed.Results: ultrasound-guided central venous catheterization showed a significantly higher first-attempt success rate compared with anatomic references (81,4 % vs. 57,4 %, p<0,05). In addition, a significant reduction in procedural complications was observed in the ultrasound-guided group compared to the anatomical reference group (4,7 % vs. 12,8 %, p<0.05).Conclusions: the use of ultrasound as a guide improves the success rate in the first attempt and reduces the risk of complications during the procedure. These findings highlight the importance of considering ultrasound-guided catheterization as a preferred strategy in the management of critically ill pediatric patients requiring central venous access

A pandemia de Covid-19, causada pelo vírus SARS-CoV-2, a qual se alastrou rapidamente pelo mundo, chamou atenção de vários países para uma nova doença com alta complexidade científica relacionada ao comprometimento de diversos órgãos e sistemas. Estudos têm demonstrado diferentes alterações histopatológicas pulmonares com a COVID-19. A presente revisão de literatura, utilizando como base de dados as plataformas PubMed e SciELO, procurou correlacionar as diversas alterações pulmonares em pacientes com COVID-19, como: Dano Alveolar Difuso (DAD), Síndrome do Desconforto Respiratório Agudo (SDRA), eventos trombóticos e angiogênese. O DAD é a primeira manifestação histológica de doença pulmonar severa na COVID-19 e consiste em congestão, edema dos septos alveolares e presença de exsudato fibrinoso e membrana hialina, além de hiperplasia dos pneumócitos tipo II e pela fibrose intersticial. A SDRA ocorre devido a um aumento das citocinas pró-inflamatórias que estão associadas à perda celular, inflamação e extenso dano pulmonar. Muitos pacientes apresentaram na COVID-19, disfunção endotelial com maior extravasamento de leucócitos, induzindo um estado de hipercoagulabilidade e formação de trombos. A presente revisão visa identificar melhor as alterações histopatológicas comuns na COVID-19, suas implicações clínicas e a complexidade da regulação imunológica na patogênese da doença. Além disso, como a fisiopatologia da COVID-19 e seu mecanismo de ação não estão completamente elucidados, sendo de extrema importância buscar um maior entendimento para desenvolver terapias que possam, futuramente, reduzir a morbimortalidade da doença.

Nigeria’s Iron Lady

Published: August 2023

On the sidelines of the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Cape Town in March 2013, I chaired a book launch starring Nigeria’s formidable first female finance minister, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, resplendent in her trademark African traditional dress and matching head-gear. She talked unpretentiously, without the affected foreign accent of some Nigerians that have spent two decades abroad. She had recently published a book titled Reforming the Unreformable on her time – between 2003 and 2006 – as finance minister of Africa’s largest economy, the world’s eighth most populous state, and its sixth largest oil-producer. She had been the architect of the deal to pay off Nigeria’s $30 billion debt (the second largest such debt deal with the Paris Club of creditors at the time), and led a team of technocratic reformers seeking to tackle corruption, build efficient public and private institutions, obtain Nigeria’s first sovereign debt rating, and transform the country into an emerging economy.

Partant de l’idée que les associations sont des dispositifs sociauxproducteurs de sens, l’auteur de ce livre, Roch Yao Gnabéli, s’intéresse aux « associations d’originaires », un phénomène répandu à travers toute l’Afrique subsaharienne et ceonnu en Côte d'Ivoire sous le nom de « mutelles de développement », et ce, depuis les années 1980. En conséquence, pour la présente étude, les deux expressions : « mutuelles de développement » et « associations d’originaires » désignent la même réalité (p. 32). Ces associations constituent depuis la colonisation de ce pays un des aspects les plus visibles de sociabilité, de participation à la vie politique et au processus de transformation de la société rurale suite au processus de son urbanisation et de sa modernisation.

Dans le roman, L’Envers du destin1de Najib Redouane, Mimouna-Rachel, l’héroïne du roman, raconte à son destinataire (un « tu », anonyme et voix absente), dans un ordre chronologique, les circonstances de son expatriation du Maroc vers Israël. Juive sépharade, elle est originaire de Fès et fille d’un homme d’affaires fortuné. C’est dans la ferme familiale, à Sefrou, dans une proche localité de sa ville natale, qu’elle passe une enfance et une adolescence des plus heureuses et des plus insouciantes, choyée par son père avec lequel elle vit une relation fusionnelle. Pour elle, Séfrou est un « havre de paix où cohabitaient musulmans et juifs. C’était un lieu de brassage de cultures, de langues et de traditions. Il reflétait réellement l’esprit qui régnait à l’époque d’un Maroc pluriel, multiethnique et tolérant. On y parlait l’arabe, des dialectes berbères ainsi que l’hébreu » (p. 17). C’est dans ce village qu’elle rencontre Mohand, berbère et musulman, avec lequel elle partage un amour sincère et passionné. C’est déjà pour la jeune sépharade, transgresser l’interdit, commettre un péché mortel vis-à-vis de sa communauté religieuse. C’est « briser un tabou séculaire » (p. 41).

The Struggle for Meaning:Reflections on Philosophy,Democracy, and Culture in Africaby Paulin HountondjiOhio University Press, 2002, 308 pp.+ xxiv, $28 (paper)
The work under review is a quasibiographical text by one of Africa’s most important post-colonial philosophers and intellectuals. Hountondji is known in Africana philosophical circles for having produced two important paradigmatic works representative of the attempted autonomy of Africa’s thinkers as they sought to come to terms with Africa’s experiences at the end of the colonial era. That era represented the culminating point of the clash of European and African civilizations dating from the fifteenth century. The expulsion of the Moors from Spain and the three hundred year Atlantic slave trade constitute key moments in this ongoing encounter.
The Intellectual Itinerary of Jeffrey Sachs

Published: August 2023

The End of Poverty: How We Can Make it Happen in Our LifeTimeby Jeffrey SachsPenguin Books, 2005, 396 pp., ISBN 1-59420-045-9
In many parts of the world, poverty, undeterred by the vast technological resources at humanity’s disposal and unfazed by the many declarations of war against it, still ravages the lives of millions. It is the juxtaposition of the obvious human capacity to “make poverty history” and the empty rhetoric on poverty eradication that Jeffrey Sachs seeks to bring to wider attention in his book. Sachs, as some have observed, is a rock star of an economist - a labelling that is confirmed both by the media hype around the book and the company he keeps - celebrities of all colours and stripes, billionaires, presidents. This has helped the book reach the attention of a much wider audience than is usual for books on poverty and underdevelopment.

Published: August 2023

Indigènes est, à la fois, film de guerre, film à message et film d’auteur. Pour y évoquer ces contingents de Maghrébins qui contribuèrent, dans une grande proportion, à libérer la France, Rachid Bouchareb a trouvé le ton juste, s’appuyant sur quatre comédiens crédibles, puisque issus de l’émigration et symbole de cette élite (modèle) qui a réussi à percer dans la société française. Personne, auparavant, ne s’était encore attaché à restituer le sort de dizaines de milliers d’Africains qui, enrôlés dans l’armée française, ont participé à la libération d’un pays lui-même colonisateur et qu’ils considéraient, encore massivement, comme leur patrie. Rachid Bouchareb vient de le faire en réalisant un des plus grands succès du cinéma français de ces dernières années.Rappelons le contexte historique : Juin 1940, la France a signé un armistice avec l’Allemagne consacrant sa défaite et son occupation. 1 400 000 soldats français sont emprisonnés. Le général De Gaulle, chef de la résistance en exil, entreprend de reconquérir sa patrie. Ce projet a besoin d’énormément d’hommes en armes: les tirailleurs sénégalais (environ soixante dix mille hommes), et maghrébins (trois cent soixante mille hommes), vont constituer le gros des troupes. Grâce à cette armée, la France sera libérée, après cinq ans de combats et d’immenses pertes humaines et matérielles, et une ultime bataille dans les Vosges, sous des tempêtes de neiges et un thermomètre descendant jusqu’à -30°. C’est un succès qui permet à l’armée française de pénétrer dans la plaine d’Alsace et d’atteindre les rives du Rhin. Le 8 mai 1945, les armées hitlériennes vaincues signent à Berlin leur acte de reddition : la guerre est terminée. Au prix de 14 000 morts, les « indigènes » ont ainsi pris une part essentielle à la libération de la France ; mais à la fin de la guerre, tous les éloges et les privilèges iront aux forces françaises de l’intérieur, tandis que ces Algériens, Marocains, Tunisiens seront les oubliés de l’histoire...
Africa’s Triple Quest
Authors: Garth Le Pere
Published: August 2023

It is with a dose of nostalgia that one recalls the halcyon days when the voices of African scholars resonated in debates about the currents and trends that shaped the different prisms through which Africa was viewed. Refreshing but critical appraisals were offered in an intellectual mix that was mostly dominated by a hegemonic epistemology originating in the West, primarily in the United States, France, and Britain. The terms of contestation often evolved around how, if anything, western scholarship shared in the expost facto complicity that helped to entrench the ‘curse of Berlin’, which originated in that infamous conference of fourteen European powers in 1884-1885 presided over by the German Chancellor Otto von Bismarck and which carved the continent into enclaves for colonial annexation...

„Der Allten Fechter gründtliche Kunst“ – Das Frankfurter oder Egenolffsche Fechtbuch
Authors: Bauer Matthias Johannes
Published: August 2023

Im 16. Jahrhundert verlegte die Offizin Egenolff in Frankfurt am Main mehrere Ausgaben eines Fechtbuchs, von denen lediglich die vierte und letzte auf das Jahr 1558 datiert ist. Ausgehend vom Exemplar des Egenolffschen Fechtbuchs in einem Bindekonvolut der Erzbischöflichen Akademischen Bibliothek Paderborn, Sigle Th 6136, setzt sich die vorliegende Arbeit zum Ziel, die Überlieferung aller vier Ausgaben zu sichten, zu katalogisieren, stemmatisch zu ordnen, die Erstausgabe erstmals zu datieren und als Edition wissenschaftlich herauszugeben. Das Ergebnis ist eine überlieferungsorientierte Textedition, die sämtliche Textvarianz abbildet und dabei insbesondere auch linguistischen Fragestellungen und Aspekten gerecht wird. Aufbau und Konzept des Fechtbuchs sowie seine sprachlichen Merkmale werden darüber hinaus untersucht. Schließlich wird das Fechtbuch in seinen (literatur-) historischen Kontext gebracht. Ein Vollabdruck der Erstauflage rundet diese Edition des Egenolffschen Fechtbuchs ab.

Ästhetische Erziehung in Russland im XX. Jahrhundert
Authors: Maletin Valery
Published: August 2023

Bei der vorliegenden Arbeit handelt es sich um ein Forschungsvorhaben auf dem Gebiet der historischen und vergleichenden Kunstpädagogik. Dabei werden die Entwicklungsperioden im XX. Jahrhundert der Bildungssysteme in Russland und Deutschland, hier speziell in Bayern, einer umfangreichen Untersuchung unterzogen. Die Ereignisse des letzten Jahrhunderts in den untersuchten Ländern zeigen deutlich, dass das System der Kunsterziehung ein sehr dynamisches Konstrukt ist und ständigem politischem bzw. bildungspolitischem Wandel unterliegt. Das XX. Jahrhundert brachte zwei Demokratisierungswellen in Russland mit sich, die in vielen Bereichen starke Auswirkungen zeitigten und einen darauf folgenden Wandel insbesondere auch auf der Bildungsebene bewirkten. Der Gründer der Sowjetunion Vladimir Lenin schrieb, dass die Schule außerhalb der Politik nicht existieren könne. Diese These wird in dieser Studie verifiziert. Zudem werden die Entwicklungsperioden der Bildungssysteme in Russland und Deutschland in anschaulicher Weise aufgeschlossen und durch zahlreiche Abbildungen veranschaulicht.

Are Fetal Nuchal Translucency Thickness and Crown-rump Length Associated with Maternal Hematological and Biochemical Profile?
Authors: Nassiri Saina , Hantoushzadeh Sedigheh , Eshraghi Nasim , Ghaemi Marjan , Panahi Zahra
Published: August 2023

Background: Nuchal translucency (NT) and crown-rump length (CRL) measurements are useful fetal screening tests. The extent to which maternal hematological and biochemical profiles may impact these markers has not been evaluated. This study is designed to address this issue. Methods: Data from the first-trimester screening for aneuploidy and maternal laboratory results, including maternal fasting blood sugar (FBS), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), hemoglobin, hematocrit, vitamin D3, and ferritin, were collected at 11 - 13 weeks of gestational age. The association between NT/CRL and maternal laboratory tests was analyzed and reported. Results: 258 women with a mean ± SD age of 32.6 ± 5.2 years participated in the study. NT and CRL values were not correlated with maternal laboratory variables. Otherwise, CRL was positively correlated with increasing maternal age, and NT was associated with increasing gestational age. Conclusions: The results of this study indicate that NT and CRL values at 11 - 13 weeks of gestation are independent of maternal hemoglobin, FBS, vitamin D3, and ferritin status.

The problem faced by pig farmers in Kuta Village, Kanatang District, East Sumba Regency in raising pigs was productivity and long rearing time. The cause of this problem was the high cost of feed due to relying on commercial feed which is relatively expensive and continues to increase. Community service activities are carried out for 1 month, namely from 01 to 30 November 2022. The purpose of this community service was to improve the management of pig feed in Kuta Village, Kanatang District. The community service method used socialization and counseling, problem identification, training implementation, monitoring and evaluation, and mentoring. The solution offered to pig farmers was to improve the management of raising pigs, namely a) how to process agricultural waste (banana stems and rice bran) into alternative feed ingredients, b) how to make rations and mix them into fermented feed, c) how to manage the environment of the cage and how to feeding. The evaluation carried out is the success rate of making feed, how to feed it, and managing the environmental health of the cage. The result of the Community Service Program that has been carried out was an increase in skills in raising livestock and providing quality feed that was economical.
