Authors: Borges Francisca Edinária de Sousa , Nascimento Izabela Cristina Fernandes do , Lima Glaubervania Alves , Fernandes Cristina da Silva , Caetano Joselany Áfio
Published: June 2022

Introdução: Estilo de Vida (EV) é o conjunto de hábitos e costumes que são influenciados, modificados, encorajados ou inibidos pelo prolongado processo de socialização. Logo, o ingresso no ensino superior é considerado desafio que pode provocar altos níveis de estresse e ansiedade nos estudantes, com alteração do EV. Objetivo: avaliar o EV dos acadêmicos de enfermagem de uma Instituição de Ensino Superior (IES) no estado do Piauí. Métodos: estudo exploratório, transversal, realizado no centro-sul piauiense, no período de julho a agosto de 2020. A amostra compôs 59 estudantes, com idade igual ou superior a 18 anos matriculados no curso de Enfermagem. Excluiu-se os que encontravam-se afastados por licença maternidade ou atestado médico. A coleta de dados ocorreu de forma online, por meio de questionário sobre o EV, desenvolvido pelos pesquisadores. Os dados foram analisados de acordo com a estatística descritiva, com uso de porcentagem e frequência absoluta. O estudo foi aprovado pelo comitê de ética da referida instituição, sob o parecer n° 3.835.037. Resultados: Entre os pesquisados, 56% (n=33) relataram prática de atividade física. Sobre a alimentação após o ingresso na universidade, 71% (n=42) notaram mudanças nos hábitos, destes, 39% (n=23) relataram aumento do peso e 32% (n=18) diminuição. Quanto ao sono, 52,5% (n=30) classificaram a qualidade do sono como ruim. Discussão: A pandemia de COVID-19 apresentou efeitos negativos no cotidiano dos indivíduos, reduzindo oportunidades de praticar exercícios físicos e aumentando as possibilidades de atividades sedentárias. Ao realizar as atividades universitárias e sociais, o ciclo de sono-vigília dos estudantes é alterado, levando-os à privação crônica de sono ao longo da vida acadêmica Conclusão: o ingresso no ensino superior gera mudanças no EV de acadêmicos de enfermagem, o que pode levar ao adoecimento dessa população. Sugere-se a realização de outras investigações que possam comparar o EV dos acadêmicos de diferentes cursos.

UMA ANÁLISE DO SUICÍDIO DOS MAIS JOVENS NO BRASIL E SUAS POLÍTICAS PÚBLICAS DE PREVENÇÃO
Authors: Freitas Andre Lima de , Vieira Soraia Marcelino
Published: June 2022

Introdução: O suicídio ao longo dos tempos tem sido além de um tabu, uma verdadeira incógnita a ser compreendida, trabalhada e desmistificada, à sua conceituação entre as diversas áreas afins, pode-se tornar um empecilho a sua solução. O objetivo do trabalho é averiguar o desenvolvimento do suicídio no Brasil entre os jovens, uma vez que se trata da terceira maior causa de morte, entre 15 a 29 anos de acordo com a OMS. O método aplicado foi a pesquisa descritiva, ao se analisar os dados de suicídios disponibilizados no site do Painel de Monitoramento da Mortalidade (2007 e 2020) ocorridos no Brasil, delimitando assim o perfil do suicida. Os resultados e a discussão apresentada entre a teoria sociológica de Durkheim e a visão das áreas de saúde como a psicologia e a psiquiatria, sinaliza que, de fato, o suicídio é um fato complexo, multidisciplinar e que dependem de fatores tanto intrínsecos quanto externos ao indivíduo, assim, o suicida é um indivíduo potencialmente exposto ao suicídio (IPES), uma vez que apresenta além de uma predisposição da condição mental à dificuldades de inserção a vida social. Dito isto, foi possível verificar, que o suicídio tem crescido mais entre os jovens, do que nos mais velhos, embora estes ainda possuam as maiores taxas. O suicídio também é verificado com maior frequência entre os homens, embora para faixa etária entre 10 e 14 anos, a maior frequência, está nas meninas. O que leva a conclusão, que a ausência de uma política pública uniforme a nível nacional, e mesmo políticas específicas para determinados grupos vulneráveis, tem contribuído para a perda de vidas com elevado potencial econômico e social, em uma sociedade que está envelhecendo rapidamente, e poderá produzir novos problemas ao não se ter a reposição necessária da força de trabalho esperada.

Authors: Batista Josemária de Medeiros , Araújo Amanda Samara dos Santos , Lima Késsya Emanuelle Barros de , Silva Catarine Santos da
Published: June 2022

Introdução: O sistema de atenção à saúde mental existente no Brasil é fruto de intensas manifestações sociais iniciadas na década de 1970, lideradas inicialmente por um grupo de médicos recém formados que denunciavam a violência vivenciada nos manicômios e exigia a melhoria nas condições asilares e sanitárias desses estabelecimentos de saúde. A partir da extinção do modelo manicomial, surge a proposta de um sistema mais humanizado que se deu a partir da construção dos Centros de Atenção Psicossocial e Residências Terapêuticas. A implantação de atividades terapêuticas auxilia na integração e socialização dos usuários dessas instituições. Nesse sentido foi implantada a realização de oficinas culinárias semanais no CAPS III e Residência Terapêutica do município de Caicó/RN. Objetivo: Debater o distanciamento entre a graduação em nutrição e as políticas e diretrizes de saúde mental, bem como analisar qualitativamente os resultados de oficinas culinárias na relação dos pacientes com sua alimentação. Métodologia: Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, tipo relato de experiência, realizado a partir da observação participante de duas estagiárias de nutrição que desenvolveram oficinas culinárias em dois serviços de saúde mental do Município de Caicó/RN. Resultados e Discussão: Os resultados destas oficinas foram positivos, pois observou-se o desenvolvimento de maior autonomia e interação entre usuários. A experiência vivenciada no âmbito da Saúde Mental foi desafiadora pois durante a graduação o contato teórico com o tema da Saúde Mental foi mínimo, entretanto, tal experiência permitiu a ampliação de um olhar mais sensível perante esse público. Conclusão: De acordo com os resultados observados nesta vivência, conclui-se que é fundamental a presença de profissionais nutricionistas em equipamentos de saúde mental e evidencia-se que existe uma lacuna na graduação em nutrição no que se refere ao estudo de saúde mental, necessitando ser aprimorada nas disciplinas de saúde coletiva da universidade.

Published: June 2022

Introdução: A malária, doença infecciosa, configura importante problema de saúde pública no planeta, e sua ocorrência está ligada a fatores sociodemográficos, ambientais, biológicos, sobretudo em populações em vulnerabilidade socioeconômica. Objetivo: Analisar as evidências científicas referentes à utilização de ferramentas de análise espacial na vigilância epidemiológica da malária em populações indígenas. Métodos: Realizou-se revisão integrativa da literatura fundamentada na prática baseada em evidências, por meio do método de Whittemore e Knafl (2005) e orientações de URSI (2005). Os dados foram coletados em quatro bases de dados de caráter nacional e internacional, adotando-se os descritores ‘análise espacial/ spatial analysis AND malária/ malaria AND populações indígenas/ indigenous population’. Utilizou-se como critérios de inclusão: artigos disponíveis na íntegra, textos nos idiomas inglês e português, pesquisa realizada em humanos, gerando uma amostra total de 27 artigos. Com o objetivo de extrair a maior quantidade de produções, não se realizou recorte temporal. Resultados e Discussão: Da amostra, 15 artigos (55,5%) identificaram áreas de maior incidência de malária e medidas de controle; 5 (18,5%) realizaram análise espacial associada a outros fatores, tais como entomológicos e fatores ecológicos; 3 (11,1%) relacionaram a análise espacial com características socioeconômicas e ambientais da doença; e 4 (14,8%) abordaram o objeto definido para este estudo. Dentre os artigos, 19 foram publicados em inglês e 8 em português, todos publicados nos últimos quinze anos. As evidências científicas apontaram que a ocorrência da doença se dá de forma heterogênea, demandando maior investimento em estudos de análise espacial, principalmente em povos indígenas. Conclusão: A análise espacial constitui-se ferramenta importante para a tomada de decisão de gestores da saúde e na elaboração de políticas públicas para o controle da malária, principalmente em populações com especificidades como os indígenas.

Published: June 2022

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of training of extension agents to improve milk quality of dairy farms. During 12 months, 240 dairy farms in the Southeast region of Brazil were monitored for milk quality parameters: milk composition, somatic cell count (SCC) and total bacterial count (TBC). Of this total, 60 farms were assisted by a rural extension team who received training related to milk quality improvement, and the remaining 180 farms had only their milk evaluated without any trained technical assistance. The difference between assisted and non-assisted farms was positively significant for all variables studied especially SCC and TBC. The milk rejection rate of non-assisted farms was 59% and for farms that received trained technical assistance was 49%. The highest percentages of samples in disagreement with standards were SCC (32%), followed by TBC (25%), SNF (13%), fat (11%) and protein (5%) of the total milk samples. The rural extension is important for improving milk quality, mainly performed by a well-trained team.

Published: June 2022

A operação de perfuração de poços de petróleo e gás engloba muitas etapas, o que torna esta operação complexa e com alto custo. Com a necessidade constante de se perfurar mais poços, explorá-los e comercializá-los, cada vez mais rápido, sem danos ecológicos e para suprir a demanda nacional, inúmeros engenheiros estudaram e projetaram o Sistema Secador de Cascalho. Este sistema é adaptável em qualquer plataforma de perfuração semissubmersível (SS), isto é, a plataforma não é ancorada no fundo do mar. O sistema tem a capacidade de não só devolver os cascalhos secos para o mar, reduzindo os danos ambientais, e também reaproveitar o fluido de perfuração, tornando a operação mais viável economicamente. Desta forma, sua criação permitiu dois objetivos distintos: o gerenciamento de resíduos e o controle de sólidos.

review article on fast dissolving tablets
Authors: Kumar R. Santosh , Devi M. Gayatri
Published: June 2022

For the majority of patients, oral administration is the preferred method of drug delivery. Tablets and capsules are the most often used oral solid dose forms all over the world. Around 30% of patients have had trouble swallowing tablets and capsules, according to reports. When spit comes into contact with the dose frames, they swiftly degrade, releasing the medication, reducing the amount of water required throughout the organisation. These distinguishing characteristics appeal to both paediatric and geriatric patients. Gulping difficulties with standard pills and containers are frequent in people of all ages, but especially in the elderly and dysphagia patients. [1] Furthermore, robust oral conveyance frameworks do not necessitate sterilisation. The rapid dissolving drug delivery system has played an important role in adapting and meeting the needs of patients. The oral course organisation is the most important method that has been credited with having a fundamental impact. The conventional tablet is widely recognised as the most popular pharmaceutical measurement shape because of its ease of transportation and low assembly cost. These structures break down fast in the mouth, increasing bioavailability. Mouth dissolving doses are a type of quick-dissolving measuring construction.

The ratio of these mechanisms depends on the functional state of the digestive glands and small intestine, the permeability of their histohematological barrier, the pressure in the excretory tract, and the level of their blood supply. The aim of the study was to study the effects of limited mobility and radiation on the body weight of animals of different ages in the experiment.
Smart agricultural remote monitoring system for better soil health using IoT
Authors: Baskar R. , Kumar G. Arun , Karan D.
Published: June 2022

Technology has played an increasingly important role in all aspects of our lives, farming, which is heavily influenced by various environmental factors, has necessitated the development of new methods to improve crop yield. The existing GSM-based Automated Irrigation system is not as effective and has some drawbacks, so the proposed method aims to develop a more effective Smart Irrigation system. With the help of various sensor configurations, users have addressed the use of IoT technology to assist farmers in detecting significant environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, soil moisture, and water level. A water pump controls the flow of water by opening and closing the flow when a signal is sent through the Arduino controller. Drop by drop, water is delivered to the plant's roots by a rain gun, and when the moisture level returns to normal, the sensor detects it and sends a signal to the controller, which shuts down the water pump. Smart Farming using the Internet of Things (IoT) and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) with their high sensor systems and output results are possibilities to enable more accurate, network, durable Smart Agricultural systems for better Soil health using IoT.

Development of renewable energy infrastructure requires critical raw materials, such as the rare earth elements (REEs, including scandium) and niobium, and is driving expansion and diversification in their supply chains. Although alternative sources are being explored, the majority of the world’s resources of these elements are found in alkaline-silicate rocks and carbonatites. These magmatic systems also represent major sources of fluorine and phosphorus. Exploration models for critical raw materials are comparatively less well developed than those for major and precious metals, such as iron, copper, and gold, where most of the mineral exploration industry continues to focus. The diversity of lithologic relationships and a complex nomenclature for many alkaline rock types represent further barriers to the exploration and exploitation of REE-high field strength element (HFSE) resources that will facilitate the green revolution. We used a global review of maps, cross sections, and geophysical, geochemical, and petrological observations from alkaline systems to inform our description of the alkaline-silicate REE + HFSE mineral system from continental scale (1,000s km) down to deposit scale (~1 km lateral). Continental-scale targeting criteria include a geodynamic trigger for low-degree mantle melting at high pressure and a mantle source enriched in REEs, volatile elements, and alkalies. At the province and district scales, targeting criteria relate to magmatic-system longevity and the conditions required for extensive fractional crystallization and the residual enrichment of the REEs and HFSEs. A compilation of maps and geophysical data were used to construct an interactive 3-D geologic model (25-km cube) that places mineralization within a depth and horizontal reference frame. It shows typical lithologic relationships surrounding orthomagmatic REE-Nb-Ta-Zr-Hf mineralization in layered agpaitic syenites, roof zone REE-Nb-Ta mineralization, and mineralization of REE-Nb-Zr associated with peralkaline granites and pegmatites. The resulting geologic model is presented together with recommended geophysical and geochemical approaches for exploration targeting, as well as mineral processing and environmental factors pertinent for the development of mineral resources hosted by alkaline-silicate magmatic systems.

Published: June 2022

The article analyzes the state of implementation of import substitution of information and communication technologies in the customs authorities of the Russian Federation. At the same time, foreign software tools used in customs authorities have been identified, which are subject to replacement by domestic analogues (Oracle database management system, Oracle BI analytical tools, Windows and VMware operating systems, software for the transport platform for guaranteed delivery of electronic messages IBM MQ, etc.); the requirements of the customs authorities for import-substituting software products have been formed; an assessment of the relevant domestic software that can participate in the import substitution program of information and communication technologies of the customs authorities has been carried out. Testing and evaluation were carried out in relation to the following domestic developments: PostgresPro database management systems, BI platforms, a number of domestic operating systems, software of the Transport technological subsystem “Factor-ESB”. The results of testing and evaluation of domestic software made it possible to exclude a number of domestic software products as non-compliant with the requirements of customs authorities, identify software products that most meet the requirements of customs authorities and determine the directions of their refinement and (or) modernization.

Authors: Bashly Pyotr N. , Verbov Vladimir F.
Published: June 2022

Strategy for the development of the customs service until 2030 provides for the development and implementation of a model of an intelligent checkpoint across the state border. The expected results of the introduction of the new model are the reduction of the time of control measures at checkpoints and the creation of conditions for non-stop traffic when moving goods while simultaneously providing the provided control functions in automatic mode. One of the most difficult tasks to be solved when creating an intelligent checkpoint is the task of automatic X-ray inspection using inspection and inspection complexes (IDCs) of a new (portal) type that allow receiving X-rays in streaming mode. Taking into account the current level of development of science and technology in the field of computer vision systems, the most effective methods of solving the problem of automatic analysis of IDC images and creating an appropriate service that allows increasing the speed and objectivity of customs control are machine learning methods. The article shows that the most promising area of research in the field of creating automatic image recognition systems for IDCs is the study and application of neural networks implementing deep learning algorithms. It is also proved that among the well-known architectures of neural networks with deep learning, convolutional neural networks show the highest quality results in image processing.

This work aims to investigate the physical and mechanical characteristics of high-strength lightweight concrete components on the basis of local porous fillers and complex additives. It is theoretically substantiated and practically proven that with optimal amounts of the complex additives – micro silica and superplasticizer Melflux 5581F, it is possible to obtain concrete with a compressive strength of up to 62 MPa  and bending strength of 10.5 MPa, profitably using the microsilica pozzolanic activity and super plasticizer, which favorably changes the nature of porosity. Depending on the water/cement ratio, micro-and macro capillary pores of different origins, as well as other shape pores appear in the cement stone, which significantly affects the physical and mechanical characteristics of the concrete: strength, water absorption, water permeability, frost resistance, durability, etc.

Authors: Maharani Rizka Tiara , Fitriyanto Dominikus Aditya
Published: June 2022

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, human mobility is limited, and many activities, such as work or school, are relegated to the home, including for apartment residents. As a result, this condition causes unpleasant feelings, which lead to a decline in physical and mental health. The solution from this is to improve room quality inside a limited area of apartment units using a biophilic design approach in order to create a comfortable living space for residents in a pandemic era. This research aims to critically review journals that can help architects or researchers study the ideal apartment design in the pandemic era. The anticipated outcome is the creation of opening and layout criteria that can add comfortable living for residence in a unit apartment at the same time, making it ideal to be applied. Air circulation and sun exposure are used to evaluate the opening, while room position and unit orientation are being used to assess the layout.

National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guideline 147 recommends supervised exercise therapy (SET) for all patients with intermittent claudication, consisting of 2 hours of SET per week for a 3-month period.1 This is supported by good evidence from Cochrane reviews2,3 that SET shows improvement in mean walking performance compared with home-based exercise and walking advice, with an increase of 120–210 metres, and also has comparable results to endovascular revascularisation. Despite this evidence and the guidance from NICE, the provision of SET is variable with <50% of UK hospitals providing SET and <25% meeting the NICE dose recommendation.4 With centralisation of services into a hub and spoke model, the spokes are likely to have inferior access to SET. Furthermore, attendance and uptake rates to SET are often less than 25%.5 Barriers associated with provision and uptake include access, time, travel and pain.

Aspilia africana is an herbal plant widespread in Africa used for medicinal purposes and also used by pregnant women for health related issues. This study was aimed at investigating the teratogenic effect of aqueous leaf extract of Aspilia africana on the dentate gyrus of albino wistar rat fetuses. Twenty (20) female adult rats weighing between 190-205g were used for this study. The rats were divided into four groups; control, low dose, medium dose and high dose with each group containing five rats. Pregnancy was induced by caging the female rats with sexually matured males. The presence of vaginal plug and tail structure in the vaginal smear the following morning confirmed coition, and it was regarded as day 0 of pregnancy. The control group was given distilled water. The low dose, medium dose, and the high dose groups received 750mg/kg, 1000mg/kg, and 1250mg/kg body weight of aqueous leaf extract of Aspilia africana through an orogastric tube from day 7-11 of gestation. On the 20th day of gestation, the animals were sacrificed using chloroform-inhalation method. Their fetuses were harvested via uterectomy, the brain was excised and fixed in 10% buffered formalin, and then routine histological processes were carried out. Staining was done using Haematoxylin and Eosin method. Histological observation of the dentate gyri of experimental groups revealed marked distortion, reduction of the polymorphic layer, hyperplasia and hypertrophy of cells in the molecular and granular layer especially in the high dose group whose mothers received 1250mg/kg of the extracts. The result suggests high doses of aqueous leaf extract of Aspilia africana may be teratogenic to the dentate gyrus of Wistar rat fetuses.

Diabetes mellitus has become increasingly prevalent over the years. The chronic hyperglycaemia of diabetes is associated with long-term damage, dysfunctions, and failure of different organs suggesting that the most effective tool to prevent complications is the effective control of hyperglycaemia itself. The study is set to determine the effect of glycemic control on plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1), soluble thrombomodulin (STM) alongside fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) among type 2 diabetic subjects. One hundred diabetic subjects accessing care at the University of Calabar Teaching Hospital Calabar and 100 non –diabetics that served as controls were enrolled. Blood samples from participants were analyzed for FPG, HbA1c, PAI-1 and STM by standard methods. The result shows 74% of the diabetic to be females. Half of the diabetics were managed on only oral anti-diabetic drugs while the remaining half were either on insulin injection or a combination of oral and insulin injection.  Poor glycemic control was observed in 56% of the studied subjects. The mean age of 54.69 ± 9.94 years for the diabetics was comparable to the age-matched controls (p=.097). Diabetics showed significantly higher FPG, HbA1c, PAI-1and STM (P=0.001) compared to control values. Correlations between STM, PAI 1 and glycated hemoglobin (figures 2 p=0.001, p =0.001) and STM, PAI-1 and FPG revealed significantly robust association (p=0.001, p=0.001).  The study concludes that there is poor glycemic control among the treated diabetic subjects with PAI-1 and STM showing a very strong positive correlation with HbA1c than FPG.

The uncanny in Gerald Durrell’s short story “The Еntrance”
Authors: Petkov Pavel
Published: June 2022

The article explores the relation of Gerald Durrell’s 1979 short story “The Entrance”, published in a collection titled The Picnic and Suchlike Pandemonium, to the concept of the uncanny, as it appears in Sigmund Freud’s work “The Uncanny” (1919). I first discuss Freud’s account of the concept, highlighting the main points in his theory, and then I subject certain points of the narrative in “The Entrance” to an analysis in an attempt to show that the story provides numerous illustrations of the Freudian concept of the uncanny.
