Objets domestiques, entre privé et public (XVIe-XVIIe siècles). Introduction
Authors: Gimaret Antoinette , Miller Blaise Anne-Marie , Oddo Nancy
Published: April 2023

The introduction presents this volume’s key aims : to explore what non-fiction literature of the early modern period has to say about domestic objects, their values, and their uses, both private and public at once ; and to draw attention to the domus of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries as a kind of “smart home” avant la lettre. It shows the relevance of the chosen methodology (which combines literary studies and material studies), before presenting the different sections within the volume.
Objets domestiques et représentation de l’espace privé dans les lettres de l’Arétin
Authors: Panzera Maria Cristina
Published: April 2023

Instruments d’autoreprésentation et de propagande, les recueils de lettres de Pierre l’Arétin, publiés à Venise à partir de 1538, permettent d’appréhender le rapport de l’auteur à l’espace domestique et à ses objets. Les lettres de remerciement pour les dons reçus représentent notamment une source importante d’informations, confirmant l’image de Venise comme avant-poste de la modernité, marqué par l’essor des arts et la recherche du confort, voire du luxe, dans la conception des espaces de vie.
La merveille domestiquée ? «Orbis in domo», l’espace emboîté des cabinets de curiosités
Authors: Marrache-Gouraud Myriam
Published: April 2023

Les «cabinets de curieux» révèlent une complexité spatiale de tout premier ordre. Partant de l’organisation de la pièce entière pour aller jusqu’aux meubles et tiroirs, l’article montre comment les curiosités envahissent l’espace domestique dans un désordre souvent feint. En se fondant sur les sources imprimées des catalogues de collections, il analyse les tendances qui s’imposent, du XVIe au XVIIIe siècle, et montre comment le mobilier et l’ornementation conquièrent un rôle prépondérant.
La ménagère apprivoisée. Objets, domesticité et domestication dans les traités des femmes au XVIe siècle
Authors: Catel Thibaut
Published: April 2023

Cet article se propose d’examiner l’assimilation ambiguë de la femme à son rôle de ménagère dans les textes théoriques (institutions, traités, etc.) du XVIe et du début du XVIIe siècle. Les objets domestiques y constituent un observatoire privilégié de la domestication des femmes, renvoyant à deux figures : l’épouse, dont les activités domestiques dissipent l’oisiveté, la ménagère, qui a un rôle d’intendance et fait de la domesticité le lieu d’exercice réel d’un pouvoir.
Broder chez soi au XVIe siècle. À propos d’un livre de patrons conservé à la bibliothèque de l’Arsenal
Authors: Castres Astrid
Published: April 2023

Au XVIe siècle, les travaux d’aiguille étaient recommandés aux femmes bien nées. Pourtant ces brodeuses amatrices ont peu attiré l’attention des chercheurs. L’étude des livres de patrons, dont certains portent des marques de propriété, permet d’approcher de manière concrète ces activités domestiques. L’article s’intéresse à celui de Jeanne de la Font, conservé à l’Arsenal. Il le replace dans son contexte, interroge les modèles mis à la disposition de la brodeuse et leur mode d’appropriation.
Note sur les portraits d’Agrippa d’Aubigné
Authors: Noir Dominique
Published: April 2023

On ne connaissait les traits d’Agrippa d’Aubigné que par quatre portraits originaux, dont ceux de B. Sarburgh, peints entre 1622 et 1630 à Genève, ainsi que par quelques copies anciennes, auxquels il convient d’ajouter quatre gravures du XIXe siècle et trois sculptures plus récentes. Un portrait inédit d’Aubigné âgé, plus réaliste, connu des seuls hôtes du château du Crest, sa dernière résidence, est reproduit ici pour la première fois. L’article identifie et commente ces différents portraits.
La musique mise en page. Esthétique typographique chez Pierre et Jérôme Haultin (1570-1600)
Authors: Hoareau Muriel
Published: April 2023

Pendant les Guerres de religion, P. et J. Haultin impriment à la Rochelle des psautiers, plusieurs recueils de chants polyphoniques, et une oeuvre originale majeure, le Dodecacorde de Cl. Le Jeune. Par une analyse bibliographique et formelle de cette production musicale résolument protestante, il s’agit de comprendre comment les différents acteurs contribuent à la réalisation de ces ouvrages, et comment les choix économiques et éditoriaux ont un effet sur la mise en livre des oeuvres publiées.
Quelle musique pour La Puce de Madame des-Roches ?
Authors: Tarte Kendall
Published: April 2023

Cet article se propose de montrer les dimensions musicales du recueil La Puce de Madame Des-Roches (1582) et du contexte de sa genèse : le salon des Dames Des Roches à Poitiers à la fin des années 1570, au cours des guerres de religion. Après avoir montré l’intérêt que Catherine Des Roches portait à la musique, il analyse des poèmes d’Estienne Pasquier et d’Odet de Turnèbe qui illustrent les qualités musicales de La Puce.
Chanter Ovide à Niort en 1595
Authors: His Isabelle
Published: April 2023

In 1595, a French verse translation of Ovid’s Metamorphoses was published in Niort, a stronghold of Protestantism in Poitou, and its inclusion of some staves of music invites one to read it by singing. The troubled historical context of this book makes it particularly valuable, as well as the scarcity of explicit traces of the common practice of singing rather than reading long poetic texts. The book also provides evidence of the particular milieu from which it emanates.

Authors: Dos Santos Laurici Maria Pires , Da Silva Cleide Leite , Da Silva Hildson Dornelas Angelo , Cardoso Valbérico de Albuquerque
Published: April 2023

Ainda que haja um consenso sobre os benefícios de uma boa alimentação na saúde, tal conhecimento não é suficiente para escolha de alimentos saudáveis. A obesidade, hipertensão e diabetes, são problemas crescentes em nossa sociedade e associados ao consumo excessivo de alimentos ultraprocessados. Estes se caracterizam por serem formulações industriais muito palatáveis, ricos em açúcares, gorduras e com elevados índices de sódio o qual está diretamente relacionado a problemas de hipertensão arterial. Este trabalho teve como objetivo estimular o senso crítico dos alunos a respeito do teor de sódio existente nos alimentos através da investigação, sensibilizando para um consumo consciente. O estudo constou de três etapas: 1) análise dos rótulos dos alimentos consumidos para avaliar a quantidade de sódio; 2) elaboração de uma pesquisa para investigar a percepção do consumo de sódio pelas pessoas do círculo de convivência de cada estudante; 3) debate dos resultados observados e criação de um infográfico educacional. Observando os rótulos dos alimentos, 89,1% e 84,3% dos alunos apontaram o macarrão instantâneo e condimento em pó industrializado, respectivamente, como alimentos com alto teor de sódio e que faziam parte de sua alimentação. Sobre a percepção das 386 pessoas que participaram da pesquisa, 79,5% acreditavam que o consumo excessivo de sódio era prejudicial à saúde, 38,9% não conheciam os alimentos ricos em sódio, 70% afirmaram ter histórico de hipertensão arterial em suas famílias, porém, apenas 31,9% delas declararam estar atentas ao consumo deste mineral em sua dieta. A metodologia utilizada para a abordagem do assunto foi considerada interessante ou muito interessante para 97,2% dos estudantes. Além do mais, 76,6% dos alunos declararam que pretendem prestar mais atenção em sua alimentação. Os resultados obtidos mostram a importância da utilização de metodologias no ensino que corroborem com a conscientização dos alunos sobre o consumo de sódio.

O eucalipto é uma especie exótica plantada em diferentes regiões brasileiras sendo isso um dos fatores que possibilita seu beneficiamento em diversos setores de produção. Uma das vantagens do eucalipto, em florestas plantadas, é a possibilidade da prática da talhadia que consiste em após desbaste, a brotações de novas gemas nos tocos, originando novos troncos e galhos, propiciando mais um crescimento. Essa é uma técnica bem vantajosa para o pequeno agricultor pois minimiza custos com o empreendimento. Sendo assim, essa pesquisa teve como objetivo geral estudar as propriedades químicas e físicas da madeira clonal do híbrido Urocam (Eucalyptus urophyla x Eucalyptus camaldulensis) em regime de talhadia. Foram utilizadas 6 árvores do híbrido Urocam com 6 anos de idade desde o primeiro desbaste, oriundas de um plantio localizado na zona rural do munícipio de Cuiabá-MT, próximo à rodovia MT- 351. Foram realizados ensaios químicos de solubilidade dos extrativos, utilizando-se água fria e hidróxido de sódio (1%). Também foi analisado as propriedades físicas da madeira nos ensaios de umidade e massa específica básica (densidade básica). Verificou-se que os teores médios de extrativos em água fria foi de 4,25%, em água quente foi de 4,43%, em hidróxido de sódio foi de 13,45%. Nos ensaios físicos a madeira apresentou teores médios de 32,04% para o teor de umidade e de 0,483 g. cm-³ para a massa específica básica. Concluiu-se que madeira do híbrido estudado apresentou propriedades e químicas e físicas compatíveis com outros híbridos citados em literatura.
O luto e a pandemia - Novos ritos e o “novo normal”
Authors: Vaz Sabrina Mesquita , Da Silva Lídia Brelaz , Mendes Elzilaine Domingues
Published: April 2023

Em dezembro de 2019, o planeta foi tomado pela disseminação da pandemia de COVID-19. Essa realidade gerou mudanças das mais diversas, inclusive no modo de se despedir dos mortos - o ritual fúnebre. Tais mudanças não passaram despercebidas, uma vez que afetaram as relações sociais e trouxeram consequências emocionais aos que viveram tal realidade. A partir disso, a escrita deste trabalho teve como objetivo entender os possíveis novos ritos e suas consequências na elaboração do luto diante da morte de pessoas queridas em decorrência do vírus Sars-Cov-2. Para isso, de maneira mais específica, buscamos analisar a importância dos ritos para a elaboração do luto pela morte de alguém e investigar se há novos ritos e quais são esses ritos em decorrência da impossibilidade de velório por morte de COVID-19. Assim, trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa que faz uso do método psicanalítico. A partir do levantamento bibliográfico, foram realizadas entrevistas com três voluntárias que contaram sua experiência frente à impossibilidade de realização de luto após a morte de um ente querido. Com base nas narrativas das entrevistadas a análise de dados foi feita. Assim, discutimos sobre Reflexões sobre o luto comum e o luto patológico, A importância dos rituais e O impacto da pandemia no ritual fúnebre. Dessa maneira, compreendemos que mesmo buscando novas formas de se despedir, elas não sentiram que de fato se despediram das pessoas falecidas. Nesse sentido, é notável o sofrimento psíquico gerado pelo impedimento da realização de velório de modo comum e tradicional. Nota-se que o sofrimento psíquico é atrelado ao sentimento de culpa por não ter proporcionado o que seria um ritual de despedida fúnebre considerado digno. Para além desse fator, há também a solidão no enfrentamento da morte decorrente da necessidade de distanciamento social, o que, consequentemente, dificulta o processo de elaboração do luto.

Published: April 2023

Objectives: Congenital prothrombin (factor II) deficiency is an inherited rare bleeding disorder with an autosomal recessive manner. The prevalence of this disorder is about one in 2000000 people in general population, but it is more common in areas with a high rate of consanguinity. To date, there is no report on the absence of prothrombin, which is a life-threating disorder. Considering the importance of factor II in body homeostasis, this study aimed to find any possible mutation of coagulation factor II codons in patients with inherited factor II deficiency in southeastern Iran. Materials andMethods: This study was conducted on 12 patients with inherited deficiency of prothrombin. Early diagnosis was based on clinical symptoms, laboratory evaluation, and family history. Then, the function level of prothrombin was measured, the initial diagnosis of disease was confirmed, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis was performed. Finally, gene sequencing and genotyping of factor II was done. Results: Molecular analysis indicated a point mutation in exon 7 in three patients and a frameshift mutation in exon 14 due to addition of a thymine base at position 1760-1761 in one patient, both of which have been reported for the first time. Conclusions: Molecular methods performed on patients from Southeastern Iranian population in terms of coagulation factor II deficiency revealed a substitution mutation in exon 7 in three patients and a frameshift mutation in exon 14 in one patient, both of which were reported for the first time. Considering the significant difference between the clinical symptoms of the present study and previous studies, probably the type of mutations reported in this study (for the first time) caused these clinical symptoms, but statistical studies did not show any relationship between the type of mutation and the occurrence of clinical symptoms. And it needs more investigations on more patients, with a larger population.

Published: April 2023

Objectives: Patients with diabetes often suffer from chronic wounds which can occur due to the impairment of wound healing in these patients. Scientists have been trying to address this issue by using wide spectrum of antibiotics and drugs. However, overusing antibiotics in recent years has led to antibiotic resistant crisis; therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new approaches in order for controlling microbial infections in diabetic patients. This study aimed to determine if cold plasma was effective in wound healing in the infectious diabetic conditions. Material and Methods: In this experimental study, 40 adult male rats with diabetes infected with Staphylococcus aureus were included. The animals were randomly divided into two groups of 20 rats and four sub-groups (i.e., day 3rd, day 7th, day 14th, and day 21st). The rats in the treatment group were exposed to helium plasma irradiated for 3 minutes per day for 21 days. Wound healing in the samples was evaluated using five healing indexes including epithelium formation, Inflammatory cells, new vascularization, fibroblast, and collagen formation. Results: A significant difference (P<0.05) was found between the indexes in the plasma radiation group compared to the control group. The results showed that the speed of wound healing in the group treated with cold helium gas plasma was higher than that in the control group. Collagen formation was always completed faster in the helium plasma group, indicating the positive effects of helium plasma on infected diabetic wounds. Conclusions: Helium plasma was remarkable effective in healing wound and controlling infections in diabetic rats.

El período de la Expansión Uruk a finales del IV milenio a.C., se conecta habitualmente con la aparición de las primeras sociedades estatales del sur de Mesopotamia. En la zona de Biredyik-Karkemish, en el este de Turquía, al borde del Éufrates Medio (norte de Mesopotamia), se han investigado diversos lugares arqueológicos, que presentan las fases inmediatas al final de la expansión de la cultura Uruk, así como su epílogo. Centramos este estudio en el yacimiento de Surtepe, un asentamiento de 8 ha, donde hemos documentado esa fase, y comienzos del Bronce Antiguo 1, al igual que en Tilbes Höyük y en Meteler/Tilvez Höyük.
Pszichológia történeti metszetek: Galton, az eugenika és az intelligenciakutatás sötét múltja (1. rész)
Authors: Mező Ferenc
Published: April 2023

A 19. század végén Francis Galton felvetette, hogy a mesterséges szelekciót nem csak a növények és állatok, hanem az emberek esetében is lehet alkalmazni. Embertenyésztési projektjét eugenikának nevezte el, célja pedig az alanyok intelligenciáján alapuló mes- terséges szelekció megvalósítása volt. Ennek érdekében ki kellett dolgozni az első objektív tesztet az emberi intelligencia mérésére. A 20. század első felében az „eugenika” széles körű támogatást kapott Európában és az Egyesült Államokban, de az eugenika számos etikátlan eljáráshoz és bűncselekményhez vezetett (pl. kényszersterilizálás, eugenika alapú bevándorlási törvények bevezetése, gyilkosságok).

"Herein, it was aimed to achieve antibacterial cellulose acetate (CA) nanofiber production and characterization. Firstly, solution properties, such as viscosity, conductivity and surface tension, were determined. Secondly, CA/zinc oxide (ZnO) composite nanofibers were produced with optimum process parameters via the electrospinning method. Then, the electrospun nanofibers were characterized by SEM, EDX, DSC, TGA, XRD, air permeability and water vapor permeability testing. Lastly, antibacterial activity tests were carried out in accordance with the AATCC100 method, against Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923) and Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922). According to the results, solution conductivity decreased and surface tension did not change with ZnO concentration. On the other hand, viscosity decreased significantly with the first addition of ZnO and then increased slightly with increasing ZnO concentration. Generally, fine (354–464 nm), uniform and beadless nanofibers were obtained. Average fiber diameter, air permeability and water vapor permeability increased with ZnO concentration. EDX analysis results verified the existence of ZnO in the structure of CA nanofibers. As a result of antibacterial studies, it was determined that the CA/zinc oxide (ZnO) composite nanofibers with the highest concentration of ZnO showed very good antibacterial activity against both S. aureus and E. coli bacterial strains."

When talking about the car door and its importance, all aspects should be considered. Main applications of the door is the protection of passengers from outside weather variations such as air flow, temperatures, dust, side impact, etc. As a part of the car, it is connected to the car body by means of hinges, latch, and weather seals. It is excited by all excitation sources which excite to the vehicle plus vehicle accessories. Car door design evaluation is nothing but simulation of real application of door with different loading and boundary connections. An extensive literature survey and study of technical papers have been done to understand the amount of work done on Car door design evaluation during 2002 - 2022. A mainly top-level study was done to find the number of analysis papers published, the number of papers published per year, and the number of papers published of each type of analysis, and a detailed study was carried out of the papers published on NVH analysis. NVH analysis of a Car door itself is a broad area for study and research. To make it simple and streamline NVH analysis papers are sub-divided into further classes that are modal analysis, vibration and noise analysis, correlation of modal, vibration, noise, and other NVH analysis results. A thorough review of published papers provided an inside picture of the subject, the current status of Car door NVH, and the scope of future research on Car door.

Design of centralized PI controllers for multivariable non square systems is proposed in the present work. The centralized controller is designed based on the direct synthesis method. The method includes approximating the inverse of the process transfer matrix with the effective transfer function matrix. The effective transfer function for each element in the process transfer function matrix is derived by using the relative normalized gain array (RNGA), and relative average residence time array (RARTA) concepts proposed by Cai et al [1]. The transfer function models used in the present work include first order processes with time delay (FOPDT). Maclaurin series is applied to reduce the resulting controllers in to standard PI forms. The design method requires a single tuning parameter (filter time constant) to adjust the performance of the controller. Simulation study is carried out for various case studies and the results show the advantage of proposed method over the literature reported methods. The control algorithms are comparatively analyzed using standard robust stability measure. The designed controllers give a good performance with lesser interaction compared to the literature methods, Davison Method [2] and Tanttu and Lieslehto’s method [3].

Published: April 2023

Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) refers to solid waste generated by towns and cities from different types of household activities1. Over 2 billion tons of MSW are produced annually. Improper disposal can lead to adverse health outcomes through water, soil and air contamination. Hazardous waste or unsafe waste treatment such as open burning can directly harm waste workers or other people involved in waste burning and neighbouring communities. At the same time, in order to keep up with the need in development, the energy demand also increasing. Therefore, utilize MSW to produce energy is gaining more recognition from public interest. Gasification offers some advantages over traditional method of utilize MSW (incineration, compost). Gasification plants produce significantly lower quantities of air pollutants. The process reduces the environmental impact of waste disposal because it allows for the use of waste products as a feedstock. In this paper, Aspen Plus software was deployed to assess and predict the outcome of the gasification process of MSW. The model was calibrated and validated with various observed data. The condition of input MSW and biomass, as well as the gasification agent were considered. The results revealed that primary products of gasification process are similar to other previously conducted experiments.

Published: April 2023

Informacijos šaltiniai (internetas, radijas, televizija ir kiti) gali būti naudojami gyventojų mitybos raštingumo didinimui, tačiau jie bus efektyvūs tik tada, kai žurna­luose, straipsniuose, televizijos laidose ir kitose visuo­menės informavimo priemonėse patikimi mitybos eks­pertai pateiks moksliniais tyrimais pagrįstą informaciją. Norint, kad žmonės kritiškai įvertintų juos žiniasklaidos priemonėmis pasiekiančią informaciją bei ją teikiančius asmenis, svarbu išsiaiškinti, ar gyventojams svarbus in­formaciją apie mitybą teikiančio asmens išsilavinimas ir kokiais asmenimis žmonės pasitiki labiausiai. Pasitikėji­mas įvairiais informacijos apie mitybą šaltiniais neretai priklauso nuo įvairių sociodemografinių veiksnių. Žinant, kuriais informaciją apie mitybą teikiančiais specialistais labiausiai pasitiki skirtingų sociodemografininių grupių asmenys, galima planuoti kryptingas mitybos raštingumo didinimo priemones (gyventojams svarbios informacijos apie mitybą teikimui turėtų būti pasitelkiami tie specia­listai, kuriais sociodemografinės grupės asmenys pasitiki labiausiai). Tyrimo tikslas – įvertinti Lietuvos gyventojų pasitikėjimą informaciją apie mitybą teikiančiais asme­nimis bei veiksnius, susijusius su šių asmenų pasitikė­jimu. Tyrimo metu apklausti 1007 18-75 metų amžiaus Lietuvos gyventojai. Paplitimo įverčiams apskaičiuoti 95 proc. pasikliautinieji intervalai (PI). Siekiant išsiaiškinti, kokie sociodemografiniai veiksniai turi reikšmingos įta­kos Lietuvos gyventojų pasitikėjimui informaciją apie mitybą teikiančiais asmenimis, duomenų analizei buvo panaudoti Mann Whitney ir Kruskal Wallis testai. Nusta­tyta, kad 54,3 proc. Lietuvos gyventojų teigė, kad jiems svarbus arba labai svarbus mitybos klausimais kalbančio asmens išsilavinimas. Aukštąjį išsilavinimą turintiems žmonėms mitybos klausimais kalbančio žmogaus išsi­lavinimas buvo statistiškai reikšmingai labiau svarbus, nei kitą išsilavinimą įgijusiems žmonėms. Daugiau nei 70 proc. respondentų pasitikėjo informaciją apie mitybą teikiančiu šeimos gydytojų, gydytoju dietologu, kitos srities gydytoju, mitybos specialistu. Visuomenės svei­katos specialistu pasitikėjo 51 proc. Lietuvos gyventojų, Šeimos gydytojais ir kitos srities gydytojais buvo labiau linkę pasitikėti kaimo gyventojai, dietologais – moterys, 45 metų ir jaunesni, kaime gyvenantys, išsiskyrę ir vie­niši respondentai, o visuomenės sveikatos specialistais – moterys bei 45 metų ir jaunesni apklaustieji.

Tikslas − nustatyti tiriamųjų sveikatos raštingumo, fizi­nio aktyvumo ir streso lygį COVID-19 pandemijos metu bei ryšius tarp jų.

Tyrimo metodai. Tyrime dalyvavo 123 respondentai (18 – 64 m. amžiaus). Tyrimas vyko nuo 2021 m. lapkričio mėn. iki 2022 m. vasario mėn. Parengta anketa, kurią sudarė Europos sveikatos raštingumo klausimyno su­trumpinta forma (HLS-EU-Q16), Šiaurietiška fizinio aktyvumo klausimyno sutrumpinta forma (NPAQ short form), Suvokiamo streso skalė (10 item Perceived Stress Scale) ir kiti klausimai. Tyrimo duomenų apdorojimas, analizė ir skaičiavimas buvo atliktas naudojant Micro­soft Excel ir Rcommander programą. Buvo skaičiuojami gautų rezultatų vidurkiai, standartiniai nuokrypiai, me­dianos, mažiausios ir didžiausios reikšmės bei korelia­ciniai ryšiai.

Rezultatai. Apskaičiavus gautus tyrimo duomenis, pro­bleminis sveikatos raštingumas nustatytas 69 proc. res­pondentų. Fizinio aktyvumo normų nesiekia 48 proc. respondentų. Sveikatos raštingumo rezultatų vidurkiai statistiškai reikšmingai skiriasi (p = 0,007) tarp fizinio aktyvumo grupių, tačiau raštingumo lygis išlieka proble­minis abiejose grupėse. Apskaičiuoti koreliaciniai ryšiai parodė, kad yra silpna teigiama statistiškai reikšminga koreliacija (r = 0,283) tarp sveikatos raštingumo ir fizi­nio aktyvumo; silpnas neigiamas koreliacinis ryšys (r = -0,285) tarp sveikatos raštingumo ir suvokiamo streso bei silpnas neigiamas koreliacinis ryšys tarp fizinio ak­tyvumo ir suvokiamo streso (r = -0,277).

Išvados. PSO fizinio aktyvumo rekomendacijų neįvykdo 48 proc. respondentų, o suvokiamo streso lygis prilygsta vidutiniam. PSO fizinio aktyvumo rekomendacijas ati­tinkančių respondentų raštingumo lygis yra reikšmingai didesnis, negu šių rekomendacijų neatitinkančių asmenų. Visi tyrime skaičiuoti koreliaciniai ryšiai buvo statistiš­kai reikšmingi, tačiau silpni. Jie parodė, jog kuo dides­nis tiriamųjų sveikatos raštingumas, tuo didesnis fizinio aktyvumo lygis ir tuo mažesnis suvokiamo streso lygis; kuo didesnis fizinis aktyvumas, tuo mažesnis suvokiamo streso lygis.

Ragenos veidrodinė mikroskopija – tai modernus neinva­zinis ragenos entodelio tyrimo metodas, veikiantis pagal optinio atsispindėjimo principus. Gautuose ragenos endo­telio vaizduose galima išmatuoti ragenos endotelio ląste­lių tankumą, stebėti jų dydžio ir formos įvairovę. Esant šių struktūrų pakitimų – diagnozuoti ligas. Pastaruoju metu šiš tyrimo metodas vis plačiau naudojamas kliniki­nėje praktikoje. Pagrindinės jo taikymo kryptys yra: prieš ir pooperacinių ragenos endotelio pokyčių stebėjimas, donorinės ragenos endotelio įvertinimas, ragenos ligų monitoravimas. Darbe pristomas lašinės ragenos endo­teliopatijos (lot. cornea guttata) klinikinis atvejis, paro­dęs, kad veidrodinės mikroskopijos metodu ragenos ligos gali būti diagnozuotos pradinėje stadijoje, stabdomas jų vystymasis, gerinama sveikimo ir gyvenimo prognozė.

Published: April 2023

Imunoprofilaktika yra viena svarbiausių užkrečiamųjų ligų valdymo priemonių. Siekiant suvaldyti skiepais val­domas infekcijas, būtina užtikrinti moksliniais įrodymais pagrįstą informaciją besiskiepijantiems.

Slaugytojų funkcijų išplėtimas imunoprofilaktikos sri­tyje praplėtė jų žinias, susijusias su skiepų derinimu, ne­pageidaujamomis reakcijomis. Slaugytojų dalyvavimas imunoprofilaktikos procese neapsiriboja vien tik skiepi­jimo procedūra. Slaugytojai patys gali paskirti imuno­profilaktiką, pakviesti skiepytis, prisidėti prie mokslu pagrįstos informacijos apie skiepus sklaidos, nes yra pati­kimi atskirų bendruomenių partneriai. Tyrimai rodo, kad pacientai labai pasitiki medicinos personalo nuomone ir patarimais, paaiškinimu apie galimą šalutinį poveikį, kartais padeda apsispręsti dėl skiepijimo.

Tyrimo tikslas − išanalizuoti slaugytojų vaidmenį imu­noprofilaktikos srityje.

Nagrinėti penkių sveikatos įstaigų slaugytojų, turinčių skiepijimo patirties, veiksmai bei informacijos apie vak­cinaciją teikimas, skiepijimo vietos priežiūra. Nustatyta, kad 28,4 proc. (n=88) respondentų skiepija skirtingo amžiaus pacientus. 18,2 proc. slaugytojų buvo įtraukti į skiepijimus COVID-19 ligos pandemijos metu. Keturios sveikatos priežiūros įstaigos turi skiepų koordinatorius. 36,4 proc. respondentų prieš skiepijimą įvertina kon­traindikacijas, naudodami standartinį klausimyną, 13,6 proc. apklausia žodžiu. Penktadalis respondentų kon­traindikacijų vertinimą deleguoja gydytojui arba skie­pus koordinuojančiam sveikatos priežiūros darbuotojui. Dauguma respondentų išsamiai informuoja apie skiepo vietos priežiūros taktiką, daugiau nei pusė padeda paci­entui apsispręsti dėl vakcinacijos.

Sveikatos priežiūros sistemai pritaikytos informacinės technologijos vadinamos sveikatos informacinėmis tech­nologijomis. Pagrindinė jų įtraukimo į sveikatos priežiū­ros sistemą priežastis − sveikatos priežiūros paslaugų kokybės užtikrinimas. Informacinių technologijų nau­dojimas sudaro prielaidas sveikatos priežiūros paslaugų teikėjams kaupti standartizuotus sveikatos duomenis ir juos panaudoti pacientų sveikatos priežiūrai bei komu­nikacijai tarp įvairių sveikatos priežiūros specialistų ir sveikatos priežiūros lygių, tarp jų ir įgyvendinant svar­biausius slaugos darbo principus.

Tyrimo tikslas – nustatyti informacinių technologijų nau­dojimo sąsajas su slaugos kokybe teoriniu aspektu.

Tyrimo metodika. Pasirinktas tyrimo tipas – tiriamoji apžvalga. Mokslinės publikacijos buvo ieškomos bei atrinktos duomenų bazėje PubMed ir mokslinės informa­cijos paieškos sistemoje Google Scholar pagal nagrinė­jamą tyrimo temą. Taikant visus atrankos kriterijus pagal paieškos sąvokas, rasti 98 straipsniai. Pagal pavadinimus atrinktos 67 publikacijos, iš kurių 36 buvo atmestos, nes jų santraukų turinys neatitiko temos. Pašalinus 11 du­blikatų, buvo analizuojamas viso teksto straipsnių tin­kamumas, kuriuos perskaičius, 15 viso teksto straipsnių neatitiko nagrinėjamos temos. Atmesti straipsniai nebuvo įtraukti. Tolesnei straipsnių analizei buvo atrinktos 5 viso teksto publikacijos, atitinkančios tyrimo temą.

Rezultatai. Mokslinės literatūros analizė atskleidė tei­giamą ir neigiamą informacinių technologijų naudojimo sąsajos su slaugos kokybe pasireiškimą įvairiose dimen­sijose: slaugytojo darbo laiko valdymo, medicininės do­kumentacijos pildymo, pacientų saugos, medicininių klaidų mažinimo, klinikinių rekomendacijų naudojimo, slaugytojų kompetencijų ir klinikinių įgūdžių gerinimo. Mokslinėse publikacijose pastebima, kad vis dar nėra aiš­kios informacinių technologijų naudojimo klasifikacijos pagal sritis ir kaip informacinių technologijų naudojimas galėtų pagerinti slaugos kokybę.

mortality in India. The objectives of the study were to assess household Knowledge, Attitude and Practice for prevention of Diarrhoea in children
through preformed questionnaires. Material and Methods: Four hundred and sixty eight under ve children were selected for study by Cluster
sampling method. Background information, details of acute diarrhoea and treatment modalities were obtained from mother of the under ve
children. This was a hospital based study conducted at a tertiary care hospital, from 1st May 2021 to 30th December 2022. Results:About 70 % of
the moms were between the age assemble 25-32 years and the vast majority of them were housewives (72%).A greater part (>66%) of the moms
were having essential/auxiliary education. Learning with respect to different parts of the diarrhoea and ORS surprisingly extremely unacceptable.
In the present examination it is seen that learning in regards to ORS in looseness of the bowels is more in educated mother than uneducated. Three
sitting of Educational mediations realized huge enhancement of the middle scores of learning, state of mind and practice expanded from 9, 6, 3 to
19, 14, 8, individually, Conclusion: The household knowledge regarding method of use and preparation of ORS for management of diarrhoea was
observed to be lacking in this investigation. More estimates should be taken to enhance this learning and make moms mindful about the planning

Background: Acute abdominal pain is one of the most common yet challenging complaints in children, often presenting as a diagnostic dilemma.
Most patients with abdominal pain have self-limited conditions.The most common medical cause is mesenteric lymphadenitis and the most
common surgical problem is appendicitis. Mesenteric adenitis is usually viral in origin and has self limiting course. Our aim was to establish a
criteria for diagnosis of mesenteric adenitis in symptomatic patients. Material and Method; Cross sectional study performed on 130 patients and
100 controls group case. Presence of enlarged lymph nodes of 5 -8mm in the shortest dia Results; meter were noted in 80% (n=64) of the patients
and in 78% (n=78) of control group. Enlarged abdominal lymph nodes of 8-10mm mm were detected in 40% (n=32) of the patients and 48%
(n=48) of controls. Nodes larger than 10 mm were detected in 30% (n=24) of the patients and 11% (n=11) in controls . Differences between the
groups were statistically signicant only for lymph nodes of 10 mm and larger in the shortest diameter (P < 0.05). The absolute Conclusion;
generalization of enlarged mesenteric nodes should only be taken clinically signicant in a symptomatic patient with nodes greater than 10 mm in
short axis diameter favoring more towards mesenteric lymphadenitis

Background: Emergency contraception (EC) is on-demand contraception that has the potential to avoid millions of unintended pregnancies. The
understanding and awareness of young doctors towards EC, who may be the society's rst point of contact, has not been thoroughly researched. The
purpose of this research is to evaluate the information and awareness of young doctors at a teaching institute in West India. Methodology: This
cross sectional, questionnaire based study took place in a medical college in west India. Participants were undergraduate medical students who
were given a pre-designed self administered 22 items questionnaire and data was collected. Observation: In our study, majority of students (98%)
were aware of ECPs but only 29% knew the mechanism of action of the pill. More than 70% students had knowledge about UPT, USG,
prescription, efcacy in relation to ECP. 90% students had positive attitude towards it. Students had moderate knowledge about Conclusion:
ECPs but the usage is very low. Students should be educated about emergency contraception, with a focus on indication, usage, side effects of ECPs
since they are bridge between the general population and healthcare
