Exploring the Legacy of Tibetan Mapmaking
Authors: Lange Diana , Lhendup Yeshi
Published: August 2024

At the 2019 International Conference on the History of Cartography (ICHC) in Amsterdam, the map historian Peter Barber stated in his ground-breaking keynote speech that ‘with a few exceptions, the emphasis in the traditional history of cartography [before 1980s] was on European mapping. In the age of European empires, it was assumed that, on grounds of technological skill as well as cultural superiority, European map making set the standard and that indigenous mapping in other parts of the world, with the partial exceptions of the medieval Arab world and China, was ipso facto inferior and hardly worth consideration.’ In recent decades the approach to the study of maps has changed and the field has been transformed. Researchers from different academic backgrounds have discovered the relevance of maps to their disciplines, and the primacy of the essentially European concepts of scale and accuracy as the sole criteria for assessing the quality of maps has been questioned. Finally, non-European indigenous mapping has been brought into the field. This paper makes a significant contribution to this development by presenting an important collection of Tibetan maps, namely those of the Harrer Collection held at the Ethnographic Museum at the University of Zurich, probably the largest corpus of Tibetan geographic regional maps outside of Tibet. For the first time, we show the entire set of maps and describe their cartographic characteristics. We also provide the Tibetan spelling, transliteration and translations for the numerous Tibetan inscriptions and explanations. We have endeavoured to study the maps using a comprehensive approach, and we discuss what we can learn from them in various respects: the human and geographic landscapes they show; their makers; the role they might have played within the historical context and the society in which they were produced; their circulation; and their role as historical sources.

In this paper, I shall examine the available codicological evidence regarding the earliest transmissionsof Aristotle’s Organon, a compilation of logical works crafted during late antiquity. This in-depthexamination of the earliest extant manuscripts indicates that the Organon circulated in a two-volumeedition. Each volume contained almost the same amount of text: the first comprised Porphyry’sIntroduction, Aristotle’s Categories, On Interpretation, and the two Analytics, while the secondcontained Aristotle’s Topics and Sophistical Refutations.

Kemunculan Gelombang Soliter Internal (GSI) di Laut Flores sering kali tertangkap oleh citra satelit dengan pusat pembangkitan yang berasal dari Selat Ombai. Namun, belum ada penelitian yang mengungkap secara detail nasib fenomena tersebut sesaat setelah dibangkitan. Di sini, karakteristik GSI tersebut diselidiki berdasarkan kemunculannya pada Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) dan citra kolom air (Water Coloum Imaging-WCI) peralatan akustik hidrografi (multibeams echosounders-MBES) saat kegiatan Ekspedisi Jala Citra (EJC) 3-2023 di Perairan Flores pada tanggal 25 April 2023. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah menganalisa dan mengungkapkan nasib perambatan GSI dari Selat Ombai hingga mengalami pendangkalan dan pemecahan di perairan Teluk Bone, Sulawesi. Metode dalam penelitian ini adalah menggunakan data hasil perekaman citra satelit dan peralatan akustik hidrografi (MBES). Hasil penelitian mengungkapkan bahwa Perairan Teluk Bone dikarekteristikan sebagai lokasi propagasi, pendangkalan dan pemecahan yang berasal dari pembangkitan GSI di Selat Ombai. Nilai amplitudo GSI yang mengalamai pendangkalan di Teluk Bone dikarakterisasi berubah menjadi 4-10 kali lebih kecil dari pusat pembangkitan GSI (Selat Ombai) akibat perubahan kedalaman dan memecah akibat menabrak dinding tebing/lereng topografi dasar laut dan diduga berubah menjadi boluses. Karakteritik massa air saat kenampakan GSI di Laut Flores tanggal 25 April 2023 di dominasi oleh massa air Samudera Pasifik yang terbawa oleh Arlindo dari Selat Makassar. Kemunculan GSI juga merubah struktur kolom air yaitu suhu, salinitas dan densitas yang merupakan faktor penting dalam propagasi akustik serta berimplikasi terhadap proses kegiatan maritim di Perairan Indonesia.

Introduction: Multiple sclerosis significantly affects the quality of life of those suffering from this specific condition. Objective: To assess the quality of life of people with multiple sclerosis and analyse the correlation between the disease and its associated effects and different sociodemographic, clinical, and functional variables. Materials and Methods: An observational, cross-sectional, descriptive-correlational and quantitative study conducted using a non-probabilistic convenience sample composed of 70 patients suffering from multiple sclerosis registered with the Multiple Sclerosis Association of the Central Region of Portugal. The data collection protocol included sociodemographic and clinical questions, the Family Apgar Scale, and the Barthel Index. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to process the data. Data collection took place between April and July 2021. Results: The majority of participants reported a moderate overall quality of life (M=51,78 ± 24,09). Higher scores were observed in the social relationships and environmental health domains, while lower scores were recorded for the physical domain. Better quality of life was found to be positively associated with being under 45 years old, having higher educational qualifications, living in functional families, and experiencing greater functional independence in activities of daily living. Discussion: The variables with the strongest association were those capable of influencing the physical and social domains. Those variables explained 59.00% and 53.00% of the variability. Conclusions: These results indicate that people with multiple sclerosis have a compromised quality of life, highlighting the need for new strategies focusing on early diagnosis and effective preventive interventions meant to improve quality of life across all its domains.
INVESTIGATION OF REGULARITIES OF THE FILTRATION DRYING KINETICS OF COFFEE PRODUCTION WASTE

Published: August 2024

The article presents the results of a study of the kinetic regularities of filtration drying of coffee production waste in order to increase its shelf life at different process parameters ‒ the height of the stationary layer of wet material (40 mm, 80 mm, 120 mm, 160 mm), the velocity of the thermal agent (1.24 m/sec, 1.76 m/sec, 2.29 m/sec, 2.82 m/sec) and its temperature (60°C, 70°C, 80°C, 90°C). The influence of the temperature of the thermal agent and the velocity of its filtration through a stationary layer of different heights of wet coffee production waste on the kinetics of the filtration drying process is shown. The analysis of the experimentally obtained drying kinetic curves indicates the presence of two drying periods: the first period, complete saturation of the thermal agent with moisture, and the second period, partial saturation of the thermal agent with moisture. The results of the study indicate an increase in the drying time with an increase in the height of the stationary layer of the dried material, a decrease in the temperature of the thermal agent, and a decrease in its velocity. As a result of the graphical analysis of the obtained experimental data, generalized dependencies describing the intensity of the filtration drying process in the first and second drying periods were determined. These generalizing dependencies allow us to obtain equations for determining the time of the filtration drying process in both periods, which makes it possible to establish the total duration of the technological process. To assess the compliance of the experimental data with theoretically calculated ones, a graphical distribution of the obtained errors was constructed. It has been determined that the maximum absolute relative error of conformity of experimental data to theoretically calculated values is 21.78%, the average absolute relative error is 5.83%. The magnitude of the errors makes it possible to use the obtained equations for practical calculations of drying equipment.
Service robotics

Published: August 2024

All robotics can be divided into two large parts: industrial and service. Industrial robotics is used in industrial production, mainly in mechanical engineering, while service robotics allows for assistance in serving people. If the first part of robotics is close to saturation, then the second service part has a huge diverse development potential with large numbers of unfilled niches, many of which do not require large capital investments. One such niche is artificial intelligence. To create it, you need highly qualified programmers — developers and the availability of computer equipment, which has an impact on reducing prices. The reduction in the cost of computer components leads to the fact that the number of different sensors connected to each other via the Internet continues to grow, which, in turn, makes it possible to create a lot of smart kitchen appliances. But robotics' biggest service success is in medicine and healthcare. Robotics is used in surgery, diagnostics, patient care, and disinfection. Much progress has been made in the creation of chatbots. Robot consultants, robot waiters, robot cashiers, robot secretaries are constantly used. The development of robotics in Russia has great prospects. Russia has a developed engineering school, a technocratic society, and a positive attitude towards robots. But there are also weaknesses. Poor migration policy and protection of social security of the population lead to a large flow of unskilled migrants into the country. A robot can do everything except one thing — replace a migrant worker, especially when employers have no interest in such a replacement. This approach greatly reduces the intellectual level of production and leads to Russia's technological lag behind the implementation of other countries. Russia has all the prerequisites to make a qualitative leap in the development of service robotics and achieve results in this industry at the forefront.
A ESTRADA DOS TIJOLOS DOURADOS: OURO, ESCRAVOS E AS RELAÇÕES ANGLO-PORTUGUESAS NA ÁFRICA OCIDENTAL DURANTE A PRIMEIRA METADE DO SÉCULO XVIII
Authors: Acioli Gustavo
Published: August 2024

Resumo Nas últimas quatro décadas, no que tange à historiografia do comércio de escravos realizado pelos portugueses entre o Brasil e a Costa da Mina (África Ocidental), tem prevalecido uma ênfase no papel do tabaco como principal item de troca. O que poucos estudos têm apontado mais recentemente é que o ouro teve relevância, no mínimo, igual como moeda de troca nas relações dos portugueses com agentes europeus e africanos na aquisição de trabalhadores escravizados. Este artigo contribui com esta última corrente, procurando demonstrar, com base em registros de negócios da Royal African Company em Uidá (Costa da Mina), o papel do ouro brasileiro nas relações mercantis entre ingleses e portugueses, que se adensaram bastante na primeira metade do século XVIII. Além disso, argumenta-se que o ouro foi fator fundamental no êxito do comércio luso-brasileiro naquela região, apontando para o caráter transimperial dos investimentos nesse ramo. Por fim, indica uma possível contribuição para avaliar as características das relações mercantis entre os agentes envolvidos.
CONMEMORACIONES, PATRIMONIOS Y AFRODESCENDENCIA EN ARGENTINA EN CLAVE LOCAL
Authors: Winter Cecilia Pérez , Amondaray Santiago
Published: August 2024

Resumen La idea de nación - y nacionalismo - ha sido largamente discutida. Algunas propuestas coinciden en destacar que esta noción es históricamente cambiante y conflictiva. En este marco, su construcción y reactualización precisa de dispositivos que determinen qué elementos (materiales y simbólicos) y sujetos se incluyen en esta noción. En este sentido podemos entender a las celebraciones y conmemoraciones como tales dispositivos que nos posibilitan indagar en las nociones que se visibilizan y reproducen sobre un país. En Argentina durante el año 2010 se celebró el Bicentenario de la Revolución de Mayo. Una serie de políticas públicas y fondos fueron destinadas para dicho fin a escala nacional, mientras otras emergieron desde los estados provinciales y municipales. En este contexto, nos interesa analizar qué tipos de acciones, eventos, se organizaron en esas otras escalas, qué elementos, narrativas, se configuraron para articular lo local con lo nacional y cómo se reproduce la noción de una Argentina “blanca y europea” a pesar de las nuevas lecturas que buscan tensionar desde diferentes espacios y actores. Para ello, proponemos como estudio de caso el partido de Exaltación de la Cruz (provincia de Buenos Aires), a partir de examinar los eventos efectuados en su ciudad cabecera que en la década de 1990 su centro histórico fue reconocido como patrimonio nacional.

Exchange on Nick Onuf’s ‘Metaphoricizing Modernity,’ Part II–Provincializing Metaphors, Reading (with) Onuf from Latin America
Authors: Viana Manuela Trindade , Yamato Roberto Vilchez
Published: August 2024

Abstract In this Dossier, four scholars reflect on Nicholas Onuf’s leading article, ‘Metaphoricizing modernity’, (re)engaging with – and celebrating – more broadly Onuf’s groundbreaking work from different places, perspectives, and angles. Part II rethinks (with) Onuf from Latin America, questioning and provincializing (certain) metaphors and metaphoricizing. Manuela Trindade Viana analyzes the conditions of possibility and the effects of ‘Colombianization’ as a powerful metaphor that came to circulate in Latin America since the late 2000s, in reference both to a specific diagnosis of a problem of violence and the solutions implemented to confront it. Challenging (certain) aspects of Onuf’s account about what metaphors do in our worlds, she argues that the security policy domain valorizes the universal push underlying the imperative to make models travel as a condition for the legitimation of their work in crafting solutions that fit to ‘similar problematically violent’ situations in Latin America. Roberto Vilchez Yamato offers an-other (re)reading of Onuf’s work. (Re)turning to Onuf’s World of Our Making, he (re)thinks the correlation(s) between metaphors, rules, and the conditions of rule, drawing attention to the crucial place of language within Onuf’s work. Supplementarily, Yamato engages with Onuf’s more recent The Mightie Frame, ‘the second half’ of his ‘decades-long project’, suggesting a certain rethinking of the ‘microphysics’ of language, the conditions of thought, and the conditions of rule, within which metaphors and metaphorical complexes are given center stage. (Re)reading (some of) Onuf’s work, he concludes his article wondering about how Onuf would respond to the question of provincializing metaphors.

Published: August 2024

Abstract This is study is a break-up of a master´s dissertation presented to the Graduate Program in Professional Education (ProfEPT) at the Federal Institute of and is intended to identify teachers´ perceptions of how the teaching and learning process took place in the remote classes and, soon after, when face-to-face classes were resumed. The objective is to analyze the impacts perceived by teachers at the State Center of Professional Education “Fahter João Greiner”, related to the students´ learning while working at integrated high-schooling during the SARS-COV-2 pandemic. Active methodologies are those promoting protagonism and autonomy among students, mainly the so-called problematizing methodology which are, for this reason, indicated to conduct teaching towards actions that are transforming, dialogical and reflexive, so much required on these days. The research utilizes an applied qualitative and the objectives were apprehended in a descriptive fashion. The method is a research-action whose investigative itinerary was established by the steps of the Methodology of Problematization using Maguerez Arc with data being organized in order to generate results, based on the principle of Textual and Discourse Analysis (TDA). The process materialized in a proposal of producing a didactic textbook while teacher training is conducted along the collaborative research-action. As a result, an increase in educational inequality was observed as well as a deficit in the students´ learning aggravated by relationship problems. Discouraged students and teachers who, despite being provided with a minimum input of technological resources, were not qualified to use them.

HYBRID CHANCE-CONSTRAINED OPTIMAL POWER FLOW UNDER LOAD AND RENEWABLE GENERATION UNCERTAINTY USING ENHANCED MULTI-FIDELITY GRAPH NEURAL NETWORKS
Authors: Khayambashi Kamiar , Hasnat Md Abul , Alemazkoor Negin
Published: August 2024

Power systems are transitioning toward renewable sources and electrification, introducing significant
uncertainties in generation and demand that optimal power flow (OPF) methods must manage.
Traditional deterministic methods struggle with these variabilities. Additionally, addressing uncertainty
in OPF calculations incurs computational burdens due to the need for multiple evaluations
across various scenarios. This necessitates the use of advanced surrogate models. However, these
models require significant data for training, and surrogate-based optimization can yield unreliable
results due to inaccuracies in constraint handling. To overcome these issues, this paper proposes
a novel surrogate-based hybrid chance-constrained optimal power flow (HCC-OPF) methodology
employing enhanced multi-fidelity graph neural networks (EMF-GNN) as power flow solver surrogates.
This model integrates low-fidelity and high-fidelity simulations to significantly reduce training
cost while maintaining high accuracy. We further enhance the robustness and accuracy of OPF
solutions through a hybrid methodology that selectively uses exact power flow solver to correct
surrogate inaccuracies near critical thresholds. Extensive testing on multiple IEEE systems under
high-dimensional correlated uncertainty of load and generation shows the EMF-GNN model outperforms
existing single-fidelity and multi-fidelity models. Furthermore, the proposed HCC-OPF
methodology accurately solves OPF problems across various system sizes and conditions, exhibiting
scalability and efficiency. Additionally, it effectively manages N-1 security constraints to further
exhibit its robustness under operational challenges.

Passing the Sexual Violence Crime Law in Indonesia: Reflection of a Gender-Sensitive Parliament?
Authors: Siregar Wahidah Zein Br , Prihatini Ella Syafputri
Published: August 2024

After a decade of deliberation, the draft sexual violence eradication bill was finally passed by the Indonesian parliament on 12 April 2022, enacted as the Sexual Violence Crime Law (Undang-Undang Tindak Pidana Kekerasan Seksual). The draft, which was first initiated by the National Commission on Violence Against Women (Komnas Perempuan) and later adopted as a parliamentary initiative, sparked controversy both inside and outside parliament. This article aims to describe the law-making process and identify the critical actors and acts as well as institutional responses that led to the passing of the law. It considers whether the experience can be interpreted as a reflection of a gender-sensitive parliament. Using a qualitative research approach, we identified critical actors and various responses from the parliament as an institution in responding to the dynamics of resistance and encouragement for the draft law to be passed. Our research material consists of interviews, news articles, and official document data. We found that critical actors and actions are key in the law-making process along with strong political will and collaboration between lawmakers, government representatives, civil society organizations, and the media, but the passage of this legislation alone does not fulfill the full requirement of a gender-sensitive parliament.

Authors:   National Academy of Security Service of Ukraine, Kyiv, Ukraine, Kravets Valentyna
Published: August 2024

Background. The search for allies for security assurance is the key to Ukraine's existence as an independent state. Creating basis for Ukraine integration into the Euro-Atlantic security environment through the implementation of NATO education and training quality standards is one of the urgent tasks for our military education system. The purpose of this study is to substantiate the audit of professional military education as a mechanism for the implementation of NATO quality standards in Ukraine. Methods. Analysis and generalization of scholarly publications on regarding issues, alongside normative and legal documents of Ukraine and NATO, are conducted. Empirical data on the outcomes of implementing NATO's educational quality standards within educational and training facilities have been obtained from both the Education and Training Opportunities Catalogue (ETOC) and the official websites of these institutions. To scrutinize the data, descriptive statistical methods have been applied. Proposals for regulating the procedure of professional military education audit in Ukraine in alignment with NATO's quality standards have been formulated utilizing the dialectical, formal-logical and systemic-structural methods. Results. It has established that the real prerequisites for the implementation of NATO education and training quality standards in Ukraine were created in 2022 by allocating professional military education as a part of military education system. The procedure for NATO courses certification and the structure of ETOC data on NATO-accredited educational institutions have been disclosed, thanks to which an acceptable model of the internal quality assurance system for military higher educational institutions in Ukraine has been determined, which has two components: the quality of academic education that complies with national legislation based on ESG; the quality of professional military education that meets NATO quality standards. It is proposed to conduct retraining and advanced training of military specialists in Ukraine in the form of professional military education courses Recommendations have been developed to regulate the procedure for conducting audit of professional military education in Ukraine on the basis of NATO quality standards. Conclusions. The purpose of implementing quality assurance standards for education and training in NATO is to ensure the compatibility of various educational institutions affiliated with Alliance. Conducting an audit of professional military education in Ukraine on the basis of NATO quality standards will contribute to the introduction of NATO-certified courses by Ukrainian military educational institutions and the development of NATO-compatible professional military education in Ukraine.

Published: August 2024

The presented additional general developmental program “Baby” for children from 1 to 3 years old is a tool for providing comprehensive psychological, pedagogical and correctional and developmental assistance and determines the system of interaction between specialists and families. The content of the program ensures the development of the personality, motivation and abilities of children in accordance with the educational needs and individual capabilities in various activities, and involves the choice of a priority direction for development for each child and his family in accordance with the needs and individual capabilities. A prerequisite for the implementation of the program is the active participation of parents (legal representatives), since the presence of a responsive adult plays an important role in the emotional and cognitive development of the child. The program is focused not only on helping the child, but also on his social environment, since the appearance of a child (especially a child with disabilities) significantly changes the nature of relationships and the emotional state of family members. The program is intended for teachers-psychologists, teachers-defectologists, teachers-speech therapists.

Published: August 2024

Long-term treatment of respiratory tuberculosis (RT) determines the urgency of the problem of the stressful effects of hospitalization in phthisiology. In this regard, the question of what factors are associated with a greater severity of psychoemotional disorders in children during treatment in a hospital is acute. Aim. The work is devoted to the study of the relationship between the characteristics of psychoemotional status with early maladapted schemes (EMS) in primary school-age children with RT upon admission to the hospital. Materials and methods. The study involved 28 children aged 8-12 years with RT who were treated in a hospital (15 girls and 13 boys). The following methods were used: M. Kovacs' Children's Depression Inventory (CDI), Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaires (SDQ), The Children's Form of Manifest Anxiety Scale (CMAS), the Lusher color test, The Dusseldorf Illustrated Schema Questionnaire for Children (DISC). Results and conclusions. The association of an increased level of depression with a greater severity of EMS «unrelenting standards», «emotional inhibition», «negativity/pessimism», «failure», «self-sacrifice», «vulnerability», «social isolation/alienation» and «defectiveness/shame» was revealed. Disorders of psychosocial adaptation positively correlated with the following EMS: «enmeshment/undeveloped self», «mistrust/abuse», «defectiveness/shame» and «unrelenting standards».
Yoga and Mindfulness Training for Professional Baseball Players: A Narrative Study on Perspectives and Practices
Authors: Wehrmann Rowan , Dietrich Kelsey M. , Nguyen-Feng Viann N.
Published: August 2024

Mindfulness-related practices (e.g., yoga) appear aligned with the field of athletic performance in developing sport-related capacities such as attention regulation, volition, perception, and coping. The purpose of the present narrative study was to explore the experiences of professional baseball players who interacted with the ideas and practices of mindfulness presented in classes featuring yoga and Mindfulness-Acceptance-Commitment (MAC). Participants were seven Minor League Baseball players who learned mindfulness practices in off-season instructional classes and then completed semi-structured episodic interviews on how their mindfulness practices were perceived and utilized in training and competition during the baseball season. Data were analyzed using the three-dimensional space approach to examine participants' subjective accounts of experience, behavior, environmental conditions, and external events. Individual narratives were re-storied and themed. Results indicated various themes across settings, from players' experiences in the yoga/MAC classes (effect of breath regulation on coping strategies; self-awareness and the mind-body connection), on the baseball field (confidence and self-efficacy; self-regulation; resilience and positive coping strategies), and off the baseball field (everyday life and activities; stigma of mental training). Overall, participants appeared to be accepting of mindfulness integrated into their training and provided perspectives supporting the benefits of yoga/MAC classes. This study has research and practice implications in incorporating yoga and mindfulness-based practices in athletic performance among young professional athletes.
Cancer masquerading as an intussusception: Experience at tertiary care rural hospital

Published: August 2024

One segment of the intestine telescopes into another, resulting in obstruction or intestinal ischemia. A pathological lead point, such as a tumor, causes the disease. A pathologic lead point in the lumen, wall, or outside the wall can cause adult intussusception (AI).

Retrospective case series of eight patients diagnosed with AI over 18 years in a tertiary rural tertiary a decade (2010-2020).

Out of 8 AI cases6 were women, and 2 were men. The median age at diagnosis was 44 years. AI was verified by USG (25%), with CT scan being (100%) sensitivity preoperatively. AI distribution (2 in the small bowel, four at the ileocecal region, and 2 in the colon). The most commonly reported presenting symptom was abdominal pain. (8/8,100%). 75% (6/8) of patients underwent urgent surgery after presenting with acute intestinal obstruction. At the same time, two cases underwent elective surgery. Out of them, five cases were malignant (adenocarcinoma) (62.5%), and three cases were benign tumors (37.5%). (Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor, a Meckel’s diverticulum, and appendicitis).

Due to the lack of specific symptoms, the diagnosis of AI by clinicians and surgeons is frequently missed out. When dealing with acute abdominal pain and signs of bowel obstruction, it's important to consider this less common diagnostic possibility because intussusception is a surgical emergency with high mortality rates in the case of delayed treatment. A surgical approach must be practiced to avoid missing underlying causes like neoplasm.

Fracture of clavicle is one of the most common fractures of the shoulder girdle which was treated previously by various conservative methods like figure of 8 bandage and arm sling. However, apart from complications like malunion and non-union, prolonged immobilization led to complications like shoulder stiffness and thereby delayed return to activities. Gradually, many techniques of internal fixation like plating and intramedullary fixation of clavicle have been developed, each one having its own merits and demerits. In this scenario, this study intends to observe the patients who have sustained middle third clavicle fractures treated with plating and their outcomes.

To observe the functional outcome of fractures of middle third of clavicle, which are treated surgically by plating and complications of the plating technique

30 patients of age from 18 years to 60 years with midshaft clavicle fractures are treated with plate osteosynthesis. They are followed serially and complications encountered are noted. Their functional outcome is calculated using Quick dash score and Constant-Murley score at regular intervals.

There is an increased preponderance of fracture clavicle among male patients. Most of the patients are between 30 to 50 years of age. The average time taken for fracture union is 10.5 weeks. The average Constant-Murley score and Quick dash score were 91.1 and 5.96 respectively. There are a few complications like hardware prominence.

Plating technique for the treatment of midshaft clavicle fractures helps in early recovery and rehabilitation of patients. It prevents complications like shortening, stiffness of the shoulder etc.

La educación se abre a nuevas oportunidades con el enfoque STEM, que va más allá de los contenidos tradicionales al integrar disciplinas como ciencias, tecnología, ingeniería y matemáticas. Este enfoque desafía a fusionar competencias académicas y habilidades para la vida, preparando a un capital humano para afrontar los retos de la revolución industrial 4.0. Sin embargo, el mero conocimiento no es suficiente; debe aplicarse en la práctica y generar un pensamiento científico y tecnológico que impulse el desarrollo industrial y social. La ingeniería, con su pensamiento sistémico, juega un papel crucial al generar ideas creativas e innovadoras para resolver problemas específicos y generales. La integración de este modelo en el enfoque stem facilita un proceso formalizado para aplicar el conocimiento en la práctica, con el fin de promover un aprendizaje significativo y efectivo.

Objetivou-se realizar uma análise econômica e comparativa de custos de produção de dois cultivares de soja. Trata-se de um estudo de caso em uma propriedade rural no sudeste de Goiás, foram colhidos os dados da safra 2017/2018 de duas áreas distintas, área A (cultivar RR) e área B (cultivar RR2 PRO), com apreciação de cinco anos, à taxa de juros a longo prazo de 6,98 % a.a.. A análise econômica foi composta por: análise de rentabilidade com Receita Bruta (RB), Receita Líquida (RL) e Índice de Lucratividade (IL); indicadores econômicos com Valor Presente Líquido (VPL), Relação Benefício Custo (RB/C), Payback Atualizado e Taxa Interna de Retorno (TIR); e análise de sensibilidade. Os valores obtidos na análise de rentabilidade certificaram que houve obtenção de lucros, os indicadores econômicos constataram que os dois cultivares foram viáveis, no entanto, os resultados foram superiores para a área B e a análise de sensibilidade apresentou inviabilidade para a área A em situações de -20 % de produtividade e +20 % de custos. Os dois cultivares são viáveis, atestando que a RR2 PRO foi mais rentável.

O cenário pandêmico impactou de forma trágica diversas áreas que compõem o sistema de funcionamento da máquina pública, como, à saúde, à economia, à segurança, à educação e as políticas públicas sociais. Nesse contexto, os gestores públicos adotaram uma série de medidas para minimizar os efeitos da pandemia em todos os entes federativos. Dessa forma, este trabalho tem como escopo identificar os artigos publicados na literatura científica nacional sobre os desafios enfrentados e as medidas adotadas e/ou recomendadas pelos gestores públicos no que diz respeito à educação frente à pandemia da Covid-19. Salienta-se, que para a produção dessa pesquisa optou-se por um estudo de  natureza básica, bem como, uma abordagem qualitativa dos materiais encontrados durante a revisão da literatura em plataformas digitais como Google Acadêmico e Scielo, com artigos publicados no período de 2020 a 2023. Desta forma, os documentos pesquisados, ou seja, os artigos evidenciaram que o gestor público deve ser capaz de tomar decisões diante de qualquer cenário, sendo ele caótico ou não, mas que tenha como foco manter a qualidade da educação e dos demais serviços que são de competência municipal. Por fim, no que tange o pós pandemia, os artigos analisados revelam a necessidade de criar mecanismos que possam contribuir para recuperar e/ou auxiliar no processo de ensino aprendizagem dos alunos que foram impactados educacionalmente em decorrência da pandemia.

Este trabalho tem como objetivo de estudo o desenvolvimento do agronegócio no estado do Tocantins, no período de 2000 a 2020. O Agronegócio é o setor que mais cresce na economia brasileira. No estado do Tocantins, também se percebe o crescimento deste setor. A produção de grãos no Tocantins nos últimos seis anos passou de 2,6 milhões (2012/13) para 4,6 milhões para a safra 2018/2019, com destaque para a soja, que representa 72% da produção, com 3,1milhões (IBGE, 2019). O Agronegócio é a soma das operações de produção agrícola, de armazenamento, processamento e distribuição. Utilizou-se a base econômica da teoria de Douglas North. A metodologia utilizada foi a pesquisa exploratória com coleta de dados secundários. Os resultados apontaram que a soja é o principal produto agrícola do Tocantins, e correspondeu em 2020 mais de 60% das exportações. Outras culturas fazem parte do agronegócio, como arroz, milho e a criação de bovinos.

A redução na oferta de peixes provenientes da pesca, faz da piscicultura familiar na Amazônia uma alternativa para manter o consumo e possibilitar a venda do excedente. Capitão Poço/PA reúne características que favorecem a atividade, mas a produção é incipiente. Para compreender a piscicultura familiar no município e identificar fatores que limitam seu crescimento, foram realizadas 62 entrevistas semiestruturadas presenciais, cuja base de dados foi utilizada para a caracterização das estruturas e práticas de manejo adotadas, a compreensão do seu funcionamento e a identificação de vantagens e desvantagens relacionadas. O estudo mostrou que a piscicultura familiar em Capitão Poço é de pequeno porte, em sistema semi-intensivo e peixes de baixo nível trófico. A estrutura não convencional dos viveiros e a qualidade da água são desafios a serem trabalhados através do manejo, considerando a capacidade de sustentação do ambiente.
