Authors: Lacomba-Trejo Laura , Delhom Iraida , Donio-Bellegarde Mônica , Mateu-Mollá Joaquín
Published: June 2024

Introduction: Anxiety, depression and stress are becoming more and more frequent, especially since the COVID-19 health crisis. The main objective of this study was to analyse the predictive power of age, gender, emotional intelligence, and resilience with respect to anxiety, depression, and stress-related symptoms in a Spanish population sample. Method: A total of 427 Spanish participants, between 18 and 83 years of age, were assessed through self-report instruments (TMMS-24; BRCS; BASS-21). Hierarchical regression models (HRM) and non-linear methodologies (qualitative comparative analysis or QCA models) are used. Results: The HRM showed that emotional attention, clarity, and repair significantly predicted anxiety, depression, and stress. Gender also played a significant role, with women showing higher levels of anxiety and stress. Age and resilience were not significant predictors in the HRM. However, the QCA models revealed more nuanced interactions: high depression was linked to young age, high emotional attention, and low emotional clarity and repair. High anxiety was predicted by being female, young, with low emotional regulation, and high emotional attention. High stress was associated with being female, low resilience, and high emotional attention. Conversely, low levels of depression, anxiety, and stress were consistently associated with high resilience and emotional clarity and regulation. Conclusions: We consider these results to be of great interest for gaining a deeper understanding of the interaction between the variables under study. In this way, it will be possible to design more effective interventions that benefit from the maximum knowledge regarding the role of these variables.

The sugarcane industry is one of the agricultural sectors for the production of commodity products that can generate sugars along with byproducts such as straw, bagasse, and molasses. When subjected to effective processing, these byproducts of sugarcane cease to be categorized as waste, as they can be converted into resources rich in carbon for use in biorefineries. Numerous conversion technologies consisting of thermochemical, biochemical, and chemical processes of biorefinery are also applied to produce high-value products, either from 1st Generation (molasses feedstock) or through integrated 1st Generation and 2nd Generation configurations (molasses and sugarcane lignocellulose feedstock). This review focuses on recent progress in techniques for maximizing the value of sugarcane, encompassing aspects, such as sugarcane processing, pretreatment methods, and the fermentation of sugar derivatives to six value-added products, namely ethanol, xylitol, butanol, polyhydroxyalkanoates, biogas, and nanocellulose. Furthermore, this review encompasses an examination of the economic and environmental repercussions associated with sugarcane biorefinery. It also explores advancements using cutting-edge technology to address obstacles in industrial production.
Comparison of Screening Questionnaire Results Focusing on Environmental Infl uences when Monitoring the Development of Reading Literacy among Pupils in the 1st Grade of Primary School
Authors: Sotáková Hana
Published: June 2024

The paper focuses on environmental infl uences in the development of reading literacy among primary school pupils. We build on data obtained through screening questionnaires for family and teachers, which were created and verifi ed during the standardisation of the PorTex test battery (Porozumění textu/Reading Comprehension, Kucharská et al., 2021) aimed at reading and reading comprehension assessment in Grade 1 - Grade 5 pupils. We believe that environmental factors can have an impact on the development of reading literacy and it is possible to use these environmental factors during interventions for pupils with specific learning diffi culties; they should therefore be included in diagnostics. In the following text, we will present the results of the experimental questionnaires created for the above-mentioned test battery, we will show the potential for using their outputs and how they relate to the pupils’ results in tests of reading, reading comprehension and language awareness. We will also discuss the potential of these questionnaires in diagnostic and counselling practice.
Resilience of Amalgamated Frameworks of Morality and the Law: Nigeria’s Road to Recovery
Authors: Jayeoba Ayodeji
Published: June 2024

There has, for about two centuries, been a whirlwind of controversies about the relationship between the law and morality, and whether morality should be legislated by national governments. In a typical African setting, there used to be no clear-cut distinction between law and morality before the colonialism and its system of government. Until lately in Nigerian communities, morality had as much force as the law. However, Nigerians’ attitude towards enforcement of morality and moral values has changed dramatically in recent times, so much so that as predicted by Dworkin, what used to be unthinkable and repulsive are fast becoming the norms. The 21st Century Nigeria is besieged by a variety of socio-economic and political problems such as terrorism and ethnic militia activities, widespread insecurity, poverty, hunger, homelessness, corruption and massively looting of public treasury. This paper explores such themes as the possibility of a nexus between decline in morality and the perennial socio-economic and political challenges of the contemporary Nigerian society and the law’s limitation and weaknesses in resolving the various challenges confronting the contemporary Nigerian state. It also examines the effectiveness of combining the frameworks of morality and the law in search of solutions to the challenges of contemporary Nigeria society.

Published: June 2024

The wind power industry is increasing worldwide every year. Thus, obtaining timely and detailed information on wind farms’ number and spatial distribution is critical for quantitatively estimating wind energy utilization and for planning the construction of new wind farms. Therefore, this study proposes a method for quickly identifying wind farms in a large-scale area. Given that wind farms mainly comprise individual objects such as wind turbines and substations, we labeled sample images of wind turbines and substations on a global scale. Then, these sample images are used to train a target recognition model and an object classification model and detect the specific locations of wind turbines and substations in the study area. Additionally, we deeply analyzed the location features of the wind turbines and further improved the recognition accuracy based on these known features using geographic constraints. Based on the location information of wind turbines and substations, a clustering model organizes them effectively into complete wind farms. A comprehensive evaluation of the clustering model verifies its scientific validity and reliability. Specifically, this framework was systematically tested throughout Vietnam with remarkable results, using high-resolution historical images provided by Google Earth. Indeed, our framework achieved 90.45% recall and 95.73% accuracy for wind turbines and 81.37% recall and 78.96% accuracy for substations. Finally, we successfully obtained the spatial location and distribution of 15 completed wind farms, demonstrating that the proposed scheme can quickly and accurately identify wind power plants in a large-scale area, which supports wind power management and energy utilization planning.
Frank Ramsey's Anti-Intellectualism
Authors: Marouzi Soroush
Published: June 2024

Frank Ramsey’s philosophy, developed in the 1920s in Cambridge, was in conversation with the debates surrounding intellectualism in the early twentieth century. Ramsey made his mark on the anti-intellectualist tradition via his notion of habit. He posited that human judgments take shape through habitual processes, and he rejected the separation between the domain of reason, on one hand, and the domain of habit, on the other. Ramsey also provided the ground to explore the nature of knowledge employed in acting from habit. That ground was passed onto Margaret MacDonald who came up with the distinction between knowing that something is the case and knowing how to apply a rule (or habit), the distinction that set the stage for Gilbert Ryle’s philosophical project against intellectualism from the 1940s onward. Ramsey thus influenced Ryle’s account of knowledge through the channel of MacDonald.
Quine’s Problem
Authors: Hems Nigel
Published: June 2024

This paper offers a defence of sense-datum statements from A.J. Ayer’s perspective that represents a response to Quine’s naturalistic ontology. Starting with Quine’s “On What There Is” (1948), and the following “Symposium” of 1951, I argue that Ayer’s proposed method of establishing sense-datum statements in his “Symposium” piece, which challenges Quine’s ontology of physical objects, is not a viable alternative to Quine’s scientific naturalism. I argue that by taking a broadly intensional approach, Ayer can offer a response to Quine’s position. More specifically, I contend that it is possible to form a distinctly non-scientific, epistemological account of sense-data by employing primitive “sensory predicates” within basic propositions. In terms of ontology, a technical ruling for “existence”, working alongside appropriate “meaning-rules”, legislates for basic sense-datum statements, thus distancing them from the regimented, extensionalised, stimulus meaning strategy indicative of Quine’s naturalistic ontology.
XHOSA CULTURAL ATTITUDES IN RELATION TO ADOPTION
Authors: Nombebe Sibulele , Boshoff Pieter John
Published: June 2024

Xhosa culture has a strong aversion to breaking familial relationships by placing children in non-parental settings or orphanages, which may lead to limited legal adoption procedures in this cultural context. Their cultural values may also have a significant impact on the adoption process. This study, conducted in Mthatha in South Africa's Eastern Cape province, sought to describe Xhosa cultural attitudes in relation to adoption. The article used a two-pronged sampling approach, combining convenience sampling to easily access respondents and purposeful sampling to deliberately select individuals who met specific criteria relevant to the research objectives, using a cross-sectional descriptive design and a quantitative approach. A closed-ended paper-based questionnaire was used to assess the attitudes of the population to adoption. Descriptive statistics and mean scores were used to analyse the variable distribution and associated demographic characteristics. The article indicated a markedly positive attitude towards adoption among the Xhosa in Mthatha. Keywords: adoption, attitude, culture, Xhosa
PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT IN CHILDREN’S SCHOOL READINESS: A ROLE FOR SOCIAL WORKERS
Authors: Vorster Cornelia , le Roux Liana
Published: June 2024

The importance of the early childhood years for school readiness highlights the primary role of parents in preparing their children for school entry. This article reports on a qualitative study that explored parental involvement in children’s school readiness in a South African context, with special emphasis on the influence of the social environment on parental involvement. Through purposive and snowball sampling, a sample of 25 parents or caregivers, nine Foundation Phase teachers and four social workers were recruited from communities in Tshwane, Gauteng. Bronfenbrenner’s ecological systems theory as theoretical framework was relevant for understanding contextual influences on parental involvement in school readiness. To account for the evidently inadequate school readiness of many South African children, the findings of the study indicate that parents’ knowledge, perceptions and socio-economic contexts influence their ability to effectively prepare young children for school entry; this in turn suggests a role for social workers to empower parents for enhancing their children’s school readiness Keywords: parental involvement, school readiness, school transitioning, social development approach, social work, South Africa
CONSTRUCTION AND EXPRESSION OF COMMITMENT IN COHABITATION: IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE
Authors: Kgadima Phuti Nathaniel
Published: June 2024

Cohabitation is often misconstrued as consisting of a relationship characterised by a low level of commitment. However, commitment in cohabitation is multidimensional, as it allows a couple to demonstrate their love in different ways, without necessarily conforming to a particular traditional formality. It is a private and personal commitment between the cohabiting partners concerned, founded on principles of trust. The current study suggests that commitment in heterosexual cohabitation is closely aligned with the couple’s intentions. Through the lenses of commitment and symbolic interactionist theories, this article explored how cohabitees construct and express commitment in their relationship. Employing a qualitative research approach, the study involved 21 purposively selected heterosexual cohabitees who are involved in a monogamous relationship. Data were generated through conducting semi-structured face-to-face interviews, using open-ended questions contained in an interview guide which were subsequently analysed thematically. Principles of credibility, transferability, dependability and conformability were adhered to throughout the research process. Keywords: cohabitation, commitment, constraints, dedication, marriage

Nakon nekoliko kratkih probnih kampanja kojima je cilj bio utvrditi arheološki potencijal, tijekom 2022. godine započela su sustavna iskopavanja Kozje peći na Dugom otoku. Pećina se nalazi na sredini otoka na visini od oko 200 m nad morem, otprilike kilometar sjeverozapadno od ulaza u radarsku postaju na Veloj straži. Iskopavanja su obavljana u sklopu projekta EpiC Hrvatske zaklade za znanost (IP-2019-04-6115). Ona se trenutačno izvode na prostoru od 20 m2 što bi trebalo biti dovoljno za neometan rad na dubljim slojevima. Iskopavanjem je definirano 12 razina hodnih površina koje pokazuju kulturnu sliku kakvu smo vidjeli u probnoj sondi. Jedino nalaza kasnog srednjeg ili novog vijeka gotovo da i nema, nego se gotovo od početka počinju pojavljivati nalazi s karakteristikama antičkog razdoblja.

Sustavno istraživanje ostataka antičkog brodoloma iz 2. st. po Kr. kod otoka Ilovika
Authors: Radić Rossi Irena , Buxton Bridget
Published: June 2024

Godine 1962. na sjevernom ulazu u kanal, uz otok Sv. Petar, otkriven je odlično očuvan teret potonulog rimskog broda. Do 1970. godine površina nalazišta bila je temeljito opljačkana, ali se tijekom zaštitnih istraživanja, provedenih od 1978. do 1980. godine pod vodstvom Marijana Orlića, ipak ušlo u trag mnogim zanimljivim nalazima. Prva sustavna istraživačka kampanja provedena je 2022. godine u suradnji Sveučilišta u Zadru i Sveučilišta Rhode Island. Istraživanja su rezultirala novim informacijama o brodu i brodskom teretu. U zapadnom dijelu nalazišta otkriveno je još četrnaest čitavih ili gotovo čitavih amfora. Drveni ostatci prilično su loše očuvani zbog stjenovite podloge i male količine sedimenta.

Authors: Radić Rossi Irena
Published: June 2024

U gradu Rabu tijekom arheološkog nadzora otkriveni su ostatci dvaju brodova, na međusobnoj udaljenosti od oko 4 m. Ostatci broda Rab 1 položeni su u smjeru sjeveroistok-jugozapad, u dužini od oko 7 m i širini od oko 2,5 m, a sa sjeveroistočne se strane podvlače pod profil građevinskog iskopa. Ostatci broda Rab 2 zatečeni su u daleko lošijem stanju, a očuvali su se na površini od oko 3 m. Radiokarbonske analize ukazuju da je prvi brod korišten tijekom 15. stoljeća, a drugi nešto kasnije. Istraživanje i vađenje ostataka brodova provedeno je krajem prosinca 2022., u prilično nepovoljnim vremenskim uvjetima. No, iako su kišna razdoblja ometala rad na terenu, vlažni su uvjeti pogodovali stanju brodova, a istraživačka akcija s uspjehom je privedena kraju.

Published: June 2024

El objetivo de esta investigación fue establecer la relación existente entre autoconcepto, rendimiento académico y género en el estamento estudiantil de pregrado de una universidad pública en la ciudad de Pasto, Colombia. Se abordó desde un enfoque integrativo, con estatus dominante y de orden secuencial: cuantitativo→ cualitativo. Participaron 684 estudiantes de primer a décimo semestre de 11 facultades. Se utilizó la prueba de Autoconcepto AF5, entrevistas semiestructuradas y grupo focal. Los hallazgos más significativos demuestran correlación entre autoconcepto académico y rendimiento. Así mismo, se encuentra correlación entre autoconcepto emocional y rendimiento en mujeres. En la fase cualitativa, emergieron categorías como estereotipos, prejuicios y discriminación asociados principalmente a mujeres y diversidades sexuales, factores protectores y estilos de afrontamiento en salud mental. Se concluye que los prejuicios, estereotipos y discriminación moldean el autoconcepto, pero factores protectores y estilos de afrontamiento permiten sobreponerse a ello y alcanzar el éxito académico.
Estrategias educativas para la prevención del feminicidio
Authors: Arango Rodríguez Selen
Published: June 2024

Este artículo de revisión teórica describe las estrategias educativas para la prevención del feminicidio en publicaciones indexadas publicadas entre 1991 y 2022 sobre la prevención del feminicidio, la prevención del feminicidio íntimo y la prevención de la violencia por pareja íntima. Las estrategias encontradas son transdisciplinares, van más allá del campo de la pedagogía y de los estudios sobre educación y se agruparon en tres tipos: 1) estrategias educativas la prevención del feminicidio en la educación infantil, primaria, secundaria y universitaria; 2) estrategias educativas para prevención del feminicidio basadas en el arte y en el activismo feminista y 3) estrategias educativas para prevención del feminicidio gubernamentales y desarrolladas en el marco de investigaciones. Se encontró que el campo disciplinar y el campo profesional de la pedagogía son equiparados en las publicaciones y que las estrategias educativas para la prevención del feminicidio resultan del trabajo de equipos inter y transdisciplinarios, procedentes de organizaciones gubernamentales, educativas y civiles con conocimientos sobre el feminicidio y su prevención, el género y la interseccionalidad. También que las estrategias educativas para la prevención del feminicidio deben formularse bajo un modelo socioecológico.
personalidad espiritual

Published: June 2024

Con el presente artículo se buscó realizar una aproximación reflexiva para comprender la personalidad espiritual, a partir de la psicología experimental. En este sentido, se aborda el desarrollo de la psicología experimental y sus contextos sociohistóricos. Al realizar experimentos, se establecen interacciones con múltiples variables de acuerdo con los contextos y sus circunstancias sui generis, como sucede con el caso de Asch, Milgran y Zimbardo, los cuales se analizan teniendo en cuenta los principios orientadores del Código de Núremberg, la Declaración Universal sobre Bioética y Derechos Humanos y la Declaración Universal de Principios Éticos de 2008 para psicólogos. Por lo tanto, la experimentación sienta los fundamentos de la psicología experimental que ha logrado evolucionar permitiendo nuevas aproximaciones e interpretaciones en el marco de la psicología. A partir de estos argumentos, se asume el concepto de la personalidad teniendo como referente las bases de la psicología en tanto disciplina científica que pretende comprender el valor de la personalidad desde la perspectiva ontológica y espiritual del ser humano.
Procedural Law and Sustainable Development

Published: June 2024

The present research hotbed project aims to analyze procedural law and sustainable development in the face of the challenges of the Colombian reality. It is a qualitative, descriptive study based on international, national, doctrinal, and legal databases, utilizing tools such as Scopus and Ebsco search engines and up-to-date and relevant government data to identify issues and achieve set objectives. The results reveal that a high percentage of the Colombian population suffers the consequences of an absent State that does not respond promptly to their basic needs, including equal access to justice. This creates a gap in the effective administration of justice and equitable conditions, hindering sustainability in the present and the near future and delaying peace, justice, and robust institutions.

Published: June 2024

Within the framework of green chemistry principles, the concept of deep eutectic solvents (DES) was used to develop solid commercial forms of oil-displacing compositions. It has been shown that the eutectic composition on the phase diagram of the binary system ammonium salt - carbamide corresponds to DES as the basis of solid commercial forms of oil-displacing composition with the best physicochemical and technological characteristics. The optimal concentrations of solid commercial forms in the working solution of the composition were determined for the ternary DES system ammonium salt - carbamide - water. The results of laboratory studies and field tests of the working solution based on the solid commercial forms of the oil-displacing composition are presented.
THE INFLUENCE OF POSTSYNTHETIC ALKALINE TREATMENT AND MODIFICATION WITH NICKEL NANOPOWDER ON THE PROPERTIES OF A ZEOLITE CATALYST FOR GASOLINE UPGRADING
Authors: VELICHKINA L  M. , BARBASHIN YA  E.
Published: June 2024

Postsynthetic treatment of ZSM-5 zeolite with an aqueous solution of NaOH was carried out, followed by the modification of the treated zeolite with nanosized nickel powder. Nickel powder is introduced into the zeolite by dry mechanical mixing. The textural, acidic and catalytic properties of the original ZSM-5 zeolite and zeolite-based samples after alkaline treatment and modification are studied. The catalytic activity of zeolites has been studied in the process of conversion of straight-run gasoline fraction of oil. Along with determining the characteristics of the target reaction products - high-octane gasolines, an analysis of the resulting gaseous hydrocarbons and carbon compaction products (coke) was carried out. It has been established that alkaline treatment of zeolite and its subsequent mixing with nickel nanopowder leads to a decrease in the total specific surface area and total specific pore volume, a decrease in the concentration of acid sites and an increase in their strength. The enhancement of the combined effect of alkaline treatment and modification with nickel nanopowder on the textural and acidic properties of zeolite catalysts was determined. It has been shown that modification of zeolite catalysts has almost no effect on the composition of gaseous products formed in the conversion of straight-run gasoline fraction of oil. Post-synthetic alkaline treatment of ZSM-5 zeolite significantly reduces its aromatising and cracking activity, resulting in an increased yield of high-octane gasoline with improved environmental characteristics. The introduction of nickel nanopowder into alkali-treated zeolite enhances this trend, although not significantly. On modified zeolites, the amount of carbon compaction products is reduced, which will increase the time of stable operation of the resulting catalysts and improve the conditions for their regeneration.

A composition characterised by adjustable physicochemical parameters within a broad range has been developed relying on the results of studies of the phase equilibria in the ternary system of deep eutectic solvents (DES) glycerol - carbamide - boric acid. The effect of this composition on oil recovery enhancement is studied, and results obtained in the laboratory studies of the effect of DES-based composition on the filtration characteristics of a heterogeneous formation in the carbonate reservoir of the Usinsk field are presented. The efficiency of the composition for oilfields at the early and late stages of development has been assessed by physical modelling. The treatment of a model of a heterogeneous reservoir with the composition is determined to cause a substantial increase in oil displacement coefficient at either low or high temperatures due to equalisation of filtration flows, an increase in reservoir coverage, and restoration of initial permeability. Investigation of the composition and properties of heavy high-viscosity oil before and after treatment with the composition shows that the application of DES-based acid composition does not affect the qualitative composition of oil. The use of the composition leads mainly to redistribution of the content of low- and high-molecular structures: predominantly light occluded hydrocarbons are displaced, while heavy oil components are adsorbed on the reservoir.

Results of the analysis of enhanced vegetation index (EVI) dynamics are presented in order to assess the state of vegetation cover over the territories of hydrocarbon fields of in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Territory using moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite data. The average EVI values of vegetation over oilfield areas were calculated for full growing seasons from May 25 to September 20, 2013-2022. It has been determined that on average, EVI values for the entire growing season in 2022 became higher by more than 20% compared to the data in 2013. The trend to an increase in EVI in the final growing season over the 10-year period under study was identified.
DYNAMICS OF TWO-YEAR POST-PYROGENIC RESTORATION OF THE COMPOSITION OF BIOMOLECULES IN SHRUBS IN THE SOUTHERN TAIGA OF THE TOMSK REGION
Authors: RUSSKIKH I  V. , STRELNIKOVA E  B.
Published: June 2024

The dynamics of the composition of biomolecules in the leaves of Caragana arborescens and Sorbus aucuparia shrubs, typical of the South taiga natural climatic zone, was studied by gas chromatography - mass spectrometry in the process of post-pyrogenic restoration at the territory the Golovina village, the Tomsk Region, 3 months, 1 year and 2 years after the fire event. Acyclic organic compounds have been identified: n-alkanes, fatty acids, n-alkane-2-ones, aldehydes, n-alkanols. The long-chain saturated alcohol 10-nonacosanol was found in the leaves of Sorbus aucuparia. Aliphatic diterpenoids phytone and the isomers of phytol, triterpene squalene, as well as naphthenoaromatic compounds vitamin E (tocopherol) and vitamin K1 (phytanodione) were detected among isoprenoid structures in the leaves of S. aucuparia, increased phytol and fatty acid levels are observed in the leaves of S. aucuparia 3 months and 1 year after the fire event, and then the concentrations of these compounds decrease to background values after 2 years. Squalene content in the leaves of S. aucuparia, which decreased as a result of the fire event, increased sharply the following year, and after 2 years, it still remained at a level significantly higher than the background. The fire had the greatest impact on the long-chain alcohol 10-nonacosanol, which was detected in large amounts in the leaves of S. aucuparia. As a result of the fire, there is a drop in its content to trace amounts, followed by a slight increase the following year and an abrupt increase up to background values after 2 years. During the two-year-long post-pyrogenic restoration, changes in the molecular mass distribution of acyclic compounds are observed. The leaves of S. aucuparia, sampled 3 months and the following year after the fire, exhibited a shift from higher molecular homologues to less higher molecular n-alkanes and n-aldehydes in comparison with the leaves from background sites, while the corresponding shift observed in C. arborescens related to n-alkane-2-ones. The distribution of acyclic compounds in the post-pyrogenic area approaches the background level 2 years after the fire.

Introduction: Burst fractures, characterized by a wide variability in pathomorphological changes, represent one of the most tactically debated issues in modern spinal surgery. The question of treatment strategy is particularly relevant for the thoracolumbar junction area, which, due to its biomechanical features, is especially prone to traumatic injuries. The aim of the study is to investigate the stress-strain state of a lumbar spine model with a burst fracture of the T12 vertebra under different transpedicular fixation options and forward trunk inclination. Material and methods: We developed a mathematical finite element model of the human thoracolumbar spine, considering a burst fracture of the T12 vertebra. The model also includes a transpedicular stabilization system consisting of 8 screws implanted in the T10, T11, L1, and L2 vertebrae. We simulated four variants of transpedicular fixation using short (monocortical) and long (bicortical) screws, which penetrate the anterior wall of the vertebral body, both with and without two cross-links. Results: The analysis revealed that the different configurations demonstrated varying stress levels in the analyzed regions of the model. For example, the calculated stress values for the body of the fractured vertebra were 22.6, 25.1, 22.4, and 24.7 MPa, respectively, for models with monocortical screws without cross-links, bicortical screws without cross-links, monocortical screws with cross-links, and bicortical screws with cross-links. Conclusion: The study provides data on the stress distribution within the lumbar spine model with a burst fracture of the T12 vertebra under various fixation strategies and simulated flexion loading. These findings can aid in clinical decisions regarding the most effective transpedicular stabilization methods to optimize patient outcomes.

Chemotherapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses drug (powerful chemicals) to kill cancer cells. Peripheral administration of some intravenous chemotherapy is venous irritation leading to phlebitis that resulting from the chemical effects of the drug on the vein wall. Aloevera gel has both anti-microbial and anti- inflammatory effects. Aloe vera Gel is more effective than routine treatment in reducing pain and severity of inflammation. The main aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of aloe vera gel application on phlebitis among patients who received chemotherapy at selected hospital, Coimbatore. Non-randomized quasi experimental pretest - posttest with control group design was adopted in the study. By using non-probability purposive sampling technique 40 study participants were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, 20 were assigned to the experimental and control group respectively. Pretest assessment on demographic variables, clinical variables, and the level of phlebitis was assessed for both experimental and control groups by using visual infusion phlebitis (VIP) scale. After the pretest, the investigator applied fresh aloe vera gel extract of 1ml topically to the experimental group and gauze dressing over it. The intervention of aloevera gel application over the site of thrombophlebitis for 15 minutes, morning and evening 2 times a day for 3 days. In the control group, patients received routine care. After the intervention, the post test was done on fourth day by using visual infusion phlebitis (VIP) scale for both experimental and control groups. It was identified that the mean score of phlebitis among patients with phlebitis who received chemotherapy in experimental group was 0.6±0.75 and in control group was 3.05 ±1.31. The estimated unpaired‘t’ value was 3.36 which is highly significant at p value 0.001. Hence, it was concluded that the aloe vera gel was an effective in reducing the level of phlebitis.

Matrimônio político: como o negacionismo e o populismo autoritário se tornaram cônjuges nos séculos XX e XXI, e o Brasil não é uma exceção
Authors: dos Santos Gossn Alexandre
Published: June 2024

Populismo, pós-verdade, autoritarismo, neofascismo e negacionismo são vocábulos proferidos em profusão nestas duas últimas décadas, mas especialmente nesta última (2010-2020). Como uma chuva de fótons meméticos e iconográficos caindo sobre a Terra, essas palavras representam eventos sociais, tecnológicos, culturais e políticos que estão cumprindo, metaforicamente, o papel do banho de luz sobre a sociedade contemporânea, porém, essas luzes não estão melhorando a compreensão dos cidadãos sobre a realidade.
Propaganda política e usos do passado no século XX: as imagens oficiais da ditadura no cinejornalismo
Authors: Dutra de Freitas Isadora
Published: June 2024

Apesar de ganharem visibilidade nos debates atuais, os usos políticos do passado foram – e ainda são – constantemente utilizados como forma de legitimação de discursos políticos, sejam eles autoritários ou em defesa da democracia, o que demonstra que sua mobilização não é uma novidade do século XXI. Como veremos, a utilização de eventos e personagens históricos foi utilizada largamente como elemento de propaganda oficial, sobretudo durante o século XX. Na política brasileira, por exemplo, podemos identificar casos recorrentes na história republicana, em que fatos ou o imaginário social foram ressignificados conforme a conjuntura. Contudo, antes de analisarmos profundamente como a produção de imagens oficiais utilizou esses elementos, é necessário mergulhar mais fundo em questões epistemológicas da historiografia. Ao falarmos de usos públicos e políticos do passado, é fundamental compreender como eles ocorrem, por meio da tensão entre o tempo e a história na produção dessas representações.

Neste artigo expomos momentos da política pública de ensino médio e educação profissional nos quais entendemos ter havido avanços. Enfatizamos o período de 2003 a 2004 devido à construção política na lógica democrática, no contexto da primeira vitória de Luís Inácio Lula da Silva à Presidência da República, quando se levou para o interior do Estado estrito senso o acúmulo teórico-prático em defesa da escola pública, gratuita, laica e de qualidade social. Em seguida, discutimos momentos de regressão, quando se retoma a determinação pelo capital de forma tensa e na lógica da exceção. Finalizamos perguntando sobre qual pode ser o movimento possível das contradições atualmente e que perspectivas estão sendo assumidas para a educação da classe trabalhadora.

Dynamic Geometry Software (DGS) is a powerful tool which enables students to move geometric objects interactively. Through experimental simulations with DGS, mathematical facts and background mechanisms are accessible to students. However, especially when those facts and mechanisms
are complicated, it is not so easy for some students to record and memorize them as established knowledge. For that purpose, reproducing some part of the output generated by DGS on printed teaching materials can be useful. Since the graphical output of DGS on a PC screen is not necessarily
appropriate for printed materials, it is desirable that the interactive graphics capabilities of DGS and the qualified documentation capabilities of mathematical editing software be unified in a flexible manner. Recently we have developed a software package “KETCindy” to format
the graphical output of Cinderella into graphical codes of TeX. Cinderella is one of the most popular DGS and TeX is one of the most popular tools for editing teaching materials or textbooks in collegiate mathematics education. Using KETCindy, we can build an environment in which collegiate
students can clearly grasp mathematical concepts by interactively operating Cinderella on a PC screen, and can acquire established knowledge by repeatedly observing the graphical images reproduced on the high-quality mathematical documents edited by TeX.

ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study is to cross-culturally adapt the Lymphoedema Functioning, Disability and Health Questionnaire Lymphoedema (LYMPH-ICF) instrument into Brazilian Portuguese and conduct a pilot application (n = 10), without psychometric pretensions. Method: Methodological research was conducted, following the steps of translation, synthesis, back-translation, and evaluation by the expert committee. Two translators, two back-translators, and twelve professionals participated in the expert committee. A pretest was carried out with 10 patients with secondary lymphedema due to breast cancer. The degree of agreement was determined by the content validity coefficient. Results: It was necessary to modify 8 out of the 29 questions comprising the questionnaire, which exhibited idiomatic disagreement. However, despite these changes, there were no indications of impairments, as content reliability was achieved through a validity coefficient of 0.90. Final Considerations: The instrument was successfully translated and cross-culturally adapted for Brazil with a high level of agreement.
