Health improvement of the elderly in five Central Asian countries during COVID-19 based on difference game
Authors: Bai Yuntao , Wang Lan , Xu Shuang
Published: December 2023

In 2020, COVID-19 became a global pandemic. Older people are less resistant to the novel coronavirus. In order to ensure the health of the elderly population, the governments of five Central Asian countries should provide home medical services for the elderly or provide "green channel" to medical services. This "green channel" means providing a special service and treatment for the elderly in the hospital to ensure that they can safely and easily access the medical services they need. In order to study the application scope of various modes, this article constructs three modes of differential game: no special care, home medical care and "green channel". And the equilibrium results are compared and analyzed. Research shows that when the additional medical costs associated with house calls or "green channel" gradually increase, the social benefits to both the elderly and the government gradually decrease, and eventually it is less than the social benefits under the no-special care model. The greater the credibility of the government under the "green channel" service model, the greater the social benefits of the government. However, the greater the credibility of the government under the home medical service model, the smaller the social benefits of the government.

Background

Mobbing, particularly in medical residencies, can lead to psychological terror with lasting mental and physical health consequences. Its impact on Mexican residents, however, remains underexplored.

Aim

This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and associated factors of psychological terror among medical residents at a medical center in Mexico City.

Methods

In a cross-sectional study, medical residents from various specialties were assessed for mobbing domains, quality of life, and anxiety/depression using the Leymann Inventory of Psychological Terror (LIPT), 36-Item Short Form Health Survey, Beck Depression Inventory-II, and Beck Anxiety Inventory, respectively. Psychological terror was defined as a LIPT score ≥ p80. Linear and binomial logistic regression models were used to explore independent predictors of mobbing and psychological terror.

Results

Of the 349 participants included (median age: 28; IQR: 27–30 years), 19.5% (95% CI: 15.5%-24.0%) were identified with psychological terror. Furthermore, 39% reported higher-degree trainees as mobbing perpetrators. Women in surgical residencies in their second or fifth year were found to experience higher levels of mobbing. Manifested bullying, workplace stigma, and inappropriate tasks were the most impacted mobbing domains. Anxiety, diminished mental health quality of life, and higher degree of medical specialization were independent predictors of mobbing. Meanwhile, increased anxiety, affiliation to surgical specialties, and being in the second or fifth year of training were identified as predictors of psychological terror.

Conclusions

Mobbing and psychological terror are prevalent conditions among medical residents in Mexico. Identification of occupational conditions and adverse psychological stressors can help to improve quality of life and training of medical residents.

Published: December 2023

Today, university students face study conditions that increase the risk of sedentary behavior, unhealthy eating, and the likelihood of stress, anxiety, and depression. Although the situation has likely worsened in recent months due to the COVID-19 pandemic, even in the pre-Corona era, several investigations have demonstrated that the students’ health behaviors could increase the incidence of metabolic risk factors and non-communicable diseases, however, further and detailed information is needed to develop tailored counter-strategies. Therefore, in the present survey, the current health status of students at the Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg (ALU) will be recorded by various questionnaires. In addition, barriers that could potentially influence their health behavior will be identified, and information on the use and awareness of existing health services will be obtained in order to derive concrete needs for further health promotion activities. The study is designed as a monocentric and prospective study at the ALU; the survey of students’ situation and needs assessments will be conducted in the areas of nutrition, exercise, relaxation and stress reduction, self-management, psychosocial health and socio-demographic correlations via an anonymous and self-administered online questionnaire. Subsequently in two-year intervals, the survey will be repeated. Data will be collected over a period of 4 years. One goal of this survey is to gain more insight into the health situation of university students; another goal is to use the knowledge gained to integrate holistic health measures into the university landscape in a structured and sustainable manner. These health measures will be implemented by using the newly developed student health care management at the ALU (www.sgm.uni-freiburg.de). Every two years, after evaluation of the surveys, the effect of the health measures can be checked and adjusted.

Published: December 2023

Mobile crisis services for people experiencing distress related to mental health or substance use are expanding rapidly across the US, yet there is little evidence to support these specific models of care. These new programs present a unique opportunity to expand the literature by utilizing implementation science methods to inform the future design of crisis systems. This mixed methods study will examine the effectiveness and acceptability of the Street Crisis Response Team (SCRT), a new 911-dispatched multidisciplinary mobile crisis intervention piloted in San Francisco, California. First, using quantitative data from electronic health records, we will conduct an interrupted time series analysis to quantitatively examine the impacts of the SCRT on people experiencing homelessness who utilized public behavioral health crisis services in San Francisco between November 2019 and August 2022, across four main outcomes within 30 days of the crisis episode: routine care utilization, crisis care reutilization, assessment for housing services, and jail entry. Second, to understand its impact on health equity, we will analyze racial and ethnic disparities in these outcomes prior to and after implementation of the SCRT. For the qualitative component, we will conduct semi-structured interviews with recipients of the SCRT’s services to understand their experiences of the intervention and to identify how the SCRT influenced their health-related trajectories after the crisis encounter. Once complete, the quantitative and qualitative findings will be further analyzed in tandem to assist with more nuanced understanding of the effectiveness of the SCRT program. This evaluation of a novel mobile crisis response program will advance the field, while also providing a model for how real-world program implementation can be achieved in crisis service settings.
Sex-dependent effects of Canagliflozin on kidney protection in mice with combined hypertension-type 1 diabetes
Authors: Trentin-Sonoda Mayra , Cheff Véronique , Gutsol Alex , Hébert Richard L.
Published: December 2023

Canagliflozin (CANA) is a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor with blood glucose lowering effects. CANA also promotes kidney protection in patients with cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes (T2D), as well as in normoglycemic patients with hypertension or heart failure. Clinical studies, although conduct in both sexes, do not report sex-dependent differences in T2DM treated with CANA. However, the impact of CANA in type 1 diabetes, as well in sex-dependent outcomes in such cohort needs further understanding. To analyze the effects of CANA in mice with combined hypertension and type 1 diabetes, diabetes was induced by STZ injection (5 days, 50mg/kg/day) in both male and female 8 weeks old genetic hypertensive mice (Lin), whereas the control (Lin) received 0.1M sodium citrate injections. 8 weeks after STZ. Mice were fed either regular or CANA-infused diet for 4 weeks. 8 weeks after STZ, hyperglycemia was present in both male and female mice. CANA reversed BG increase mice fed regular diet. Male LinSTZ mice had elevated water intake, urine output, urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR), kidney lesion score, and creatinine clearance compared to the Lin control group. Kidney injury was improved in male LinSTZ + CANA group in male mice. Water intake and urine output were not statistically significantly different in female LinSTZ compared to female LinSTZ+ CANA. Moreover, CANA did not improve kidney injury in female mice, showing no effect in creatinine clearance, lesion score and fibrosis when compared to LinSTZ fed regular diet. Here we show that Canagliflozin might exert different kidney protection effects in male compared to female mice with hypertension and type 1 diabetes. Sex-dimorphisms were previously found in the pathophysiology of diabetes induced by STZ. Therefore, we highlight the importance of in-depth investigation on sex-dependent effects of CANA, taking in consideration the unique characteristics of disease progression for each sex.

Published: December 2023

Industrial defect detection is a critical aspect of production. Traditional industrial inspection algorithms often face challenges with low detection accuracy. In recent years, the adoption of deep learning algorithms, particularly Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), has shown remarkable success in the field of computer vision. Our research primarily focused on developing a defect detection algorithm for the surface of Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) boards. To address the challenges of detecting small objects and objects with extreme aspect ratios in FPC defect detection for surface, we proposed a guided box improvement approach based on the GA-Faster-RCNN network. This approach involves refining bounding box predictions to enhance the precision and efficiency of defect detection in Faster-RCNN network. Through experiments, we verified that our designed GA-Faster-RCNN network achieved an impressive accuracy rate of 91.1%, representing an 8.5% improvement in detection accuracy compared to the baseline model.
Traumatic brain injury and risk of heart failure and coronary heart disease: A nationwide population-based cohort study
Authors: Huang Ching-Hui , Yang Chao-Tung , Chang Chia-Chu
Published: December 2023

Background

This study examined the long-term risks of heart failure (HF) and coronary heart disease (CHD) following traumatic brain injury (TBI), focusing on gender differences.

Methods

Data from Taiwan’s National Health Insurance Research Database included 29,570 TBI patients and 118,280 matched controls based on propensity scores.

Results

The TBI cohort had higher incidences of CHD and HF (9.76 vs. 9.07 per 1000 person-years; 4.40 vs. 3.88 per 1000 person-years). Adjusted analyses showed a significantly higher risk of HF in the TBI group (adjusted hazard ratio = 1.08, 95% CI = 1.01–1.17, P = 0.031). The increased CHD risk in the TBI cohort became insignificant after adjustment. Subgroup analysis by gender revealed higher HF risk in men (aHR = 1.14, 95% CI = 1.03–1.25, P = 0.010) and higher CHD risk in women under 50 (aHR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.15–1.52, P < 0.001). TBI patients without beta-blocker therapy may be at increased risk of HF.

Conclusion

Our results suggest that TBI increases the risk of HF and CHD in this nationwide cohort of Taiwanese citizens. Gender influences the risks differently, with men at higher HF risk and younger women at higher CHD risk. Beta-blockers have a neutral effect on HF and CHD risk.
Regulation of Ebola GP conformation and membrane binding by the chemical environment of the late endosome

Published: December 2023

Interaction between the Ebola virus envelope glycoprotein (GP) and the endosomal membrane is an essential step during virus entry into the cell. Acidic pH and Ca2+ have been implicated in mediating the GP-membrane interaction. However, the molecular mechanism by which these environmental factors regulate the conformational changes that enable engagement of GP with the target membrane is unknown. Here, we apply fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) and single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) imaging to elucidate how the acidic pH, Ca2+ and anionic phospholipids in the late endosome promote GP-membrane interaction, thereby facilitating virus entry. We find that bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate (BMP), which is specific to the late endosome, is especially critical in determining the Ca2+-dependence of the GP-membrane interaction. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations suggested residues in GP that sense pH and induce conformational changes that make the fusion loop available for insertion into the membrane. We similarly confirm residues in the fusion loop that mediate GP’s interaction with Ca2+, which likely promotes local conformational changes in the fusion loop and mediates electrostatic interactions with the anionic phospholipids. Collectively, our results provide a mechanistic understanding of how the environment of the late endosome regulates the timing and efficiency of virus entry.

El presente trabajo analiza la utilización de la comunidad migrante como fuente válida por parte de Televisión Española. Para ello, el estudio se centra en el caso de la llegada de embarcaciones al muelle de Arguineguín, Gran Canaria, durante todo noviembre de 2020 y se analiza si los migrantes fueron tratados como una fuente válida tanto por la edición de las 15h del Telediario (TD1), como por la desconexión territorial de Canarias (TeleCanarias1). Asimismo, también se puede observar si existe un sesgo de proximidad a la hora de informar, si se encuentra algún patrón que reproduzca los estereotipos con atribuciones negativas sobre la comunidad migrante.
Promising useful plants of the genus Iris L. in the collection of the Botanical Garden of Peter the Great, cultivation features
Authors: Alexeeva N. B. , Varfolomeeva E. A
Published: December 2023

Information on biological properties of 11 species of the genus Iris (Iridaceae), on the prospects for their practical use, and the features of their care in the collection is presented. The article is the result of a long-term study of irises in nature and in the Iridarium collection, in addition, extensive literature is used that characterizes the chemical composition and medicinal properties of plants. It has been shown that the resistance of plants themselves to diseases, for example, to bacteriosis, depends on the content of various derivatives of phenolcarboxylic acids plants. If it is higher, theplants are more resistant to bacteriosis, as in I. ensata, I. lactea s. l., I. pseudacorus, I. sibirica. This conclusion is confirmed by the fact that groups of irises that do not have such a quantity of phenolcarboxylic acids derivatives are unstable to bacteriosis, such species are I. aphylla, I. furcata, I. pumila. Plants of I. lactea s. l., I. ruthenica, which have anthelmintic properties, are not affected by nematodes, both rhizomatous and leafy. It was noted that irises with a high content of ascorbic acid in the leaves have winter hardiness (I. setosa - 1218 мг%). Conclusions are drawn, which were confirmed by experience, about the important role of organic acids in plant sap and their resistance to diseases.
Alien species of woody plants of the city of Khabarovsk
Authors: Borzenkova T. G.
Published: December 2023

The results of the study of alien species of woody plants found in the urban area are presented. Alien plants were understood to be foreign or adventitious plants. City parks, squares, street plantings, territories of scientific and educational institutions, wastelands, ravines and other ruderal habitats within the city were surveyed. During the study, we identified 38 species belonging to 14 families and 26 genera. It is shown that the taxonomic spectrum of the studied flora is dominated by the number of species from the family Rosaceae (genus Prunus) and Salicaceae (genus Populus). According to the life form, summer-green trees and shrubs are most often found. By origin, most of the species were imported from North America, as well as from the adjacent territories of the Asian continent (Central Asian and East Asian species). European and Siberian species in urban plantings are insignificant. It was found that alien species of woody plants in Khabarovsk were deliberately imported for landscaping purposes. They are kept in the landing sites without being introduced into the natural cenoses.

Published: December 2023

The article presents the results of the vital and reproductive characteristics study of a rare relict plant species for the Southern Urals Allium obliquum L. in two cenopopulations in the conditions of the South Ural Reserve, found in 2022. The natural cenopopulation grows among stone placers on the Dunan-Suigan mountain, Ridge Yusha, and the cenopopulation that grows in culture is on the private estates in the village of Kartali. Morphometric indicators of seeds are characterized and data on seed productivity of A. obliquum in two examined cenopopulations are given. It was revealed that the natural coenopopulation has lower vitality and productive characteristics compared to plants in culture. For example, among the parameters of the vitality sphere, the height of the shoot in the Dunan-Suigan cenopopulation is on average 88.7 cm, and in the Kartali cenopopulation - 111.8 cm, and among reproductive indicators, the diameter of the umbrella, the diameter and height of the box, the length of the seed in the introduced cenopopulations are higher than in natural cenopopulations. According to the indicators of seed productivity, an increase in real seed productivity in the introduced cenopopulation was noted.

O kefir é uma bebida fermentada produzida a partir da adição de grãos de kefir ao substrato de cultivo, tradicionalmente o leite. A composição dos micro-organismos presentes no kefir depende de vários fatores, como origem e tempo de fermentação. Sua composição o classifica como um probiótico, capaz de apresentar benefícios à saúde com o consumo regular. Assim, o presente estudo tem como objetivo avaliar a estabilidade da contagem microbiológica do kefir de leite ao longo do período de 35 dias, seu pH e composição centesimal, além de analisar a microbiota bacteriana e fúngica. Para produção do leite fermentado, os grãos de kefir foram cultivados em leite integral pasteurizado, na proporção de 1:10, e a contagem de bactérias e leveduras foi realizada pelo método de plaqueamento em superfície. O DNA genômico total foi extraído e as bibliotecas de amplicons 16S rRNA e ITS foram geradas para cada amostra, as quais foram sequenciadas na plataforma Illumina MiSeq. De acordo com a contagem de bactérias ácido láticas e leveduras, o kefir avaliado apresentou contagem probiótica e tanto a composição centesimal quanto os valores médios de pH, se mostraram adequados ao longo do tempo, mesmo com pequenas variações de pH. Os principais gêneros bacterianos encontrados no kefir foram Lactococcus, Bacteroides e Prevotellaceae_UCG-001, e Aspergillus, Beauveria e Saccharomyces foram os gêneros fúngicos predominantes. Os resultados indicam que há manutenção das contagens microbiológicas mínimas do kefir de leite durante o período de análise, com predomínio dos gêneros Lactococcus e Aspergillus.

A fim de atender às necessidades de indivíduos com doenças ou condições que requeiram a restrição de lactose, alimentos isentos e de baixo teor desse carboidrato são regulamentados pela RDC nº 135, de 8 de fevereiro de 2017. Diante disso, o objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar as informações contidas nos rótulos de produtos lácteos isentos de lactose frente às principais legislações de alimentos. Foram analisados rótulos de diferentes derivados lácteos isentos de lactose, tais como o leite UHT, creme de leite, leite condensado, iogurte, bebida láctea, queijo muçarela, queijo Minas Frescal, requeijão, doce de leite e ricota, totalizando 37 produtos, comercializados nas cidades de Itaqui - RS e Francisco Beltrão - PR, no período de setembro de 2020 a setembro de 2021. Dentre as irregularidades, a falta da medida caseira foi verificada em 92% dos rótulos. Em 8% dos rótulos não havia a expressão “Diabéticos: contém (especificar o mono- e ou dissacarídeo)” e a orientação “Consumir preferencialmente sob orientação de nutricionista ou médico”. Apenas um dos rótulos (R2) analisados não apresentou a informação nutricional por 100 g ou mL. Não foram encontradas irregularidades referentes à rotulagem sobre a presença de glúten e rotulagem obrigatória dos principais alimentos que causam alergias alimentares. Além disso, todos os rótulos apresentaram a declaração “isento de lactose”, “zero lactose”, “0% lactose”, “sem lactose” ou “não contém lactose”, próxima à denominação de venda do alimento. Conclui-se que apenas um produto (R3) estava em conformidade com as legislações, enfatizando a importância da adequação dos rótulos pelos fabricantes, a fim de garantir aos consumidores informações claras, corretas e padronizadas de acordo com as legislações vigentes.
DESAFIOS EM RELAÇÃO À DIVERSIDADE FRENTE ÀS DESIGUALDADES E EXCLUSÃO NO COTIDIANO DAS ESCOLAS
Authors: Borges Muniz Luciano
Published: December 2023

RESUMO: Situações de exclusão e discriminação estão presentes no cotidiano de várias escolas brasileiras como atestam muitas pesquisas feitas nos últimos anos no Brasil. A escola como espaço onde se desenvolvem relações e interações sociais diversas, muitas vezes sem associação direta com a função social que se acredita ser a razão da existência da instituição escola, tem se tornado importante objeto de análise no campo da sociologia da educação. Este artigo objetiva analisar se a existência de relações sociais que apresentam manifestações de discriminação e exclusão de certos grupos de indivíduos, dentro de escolas públicas e privadas em uma cidade no Centro Oeste de Minas Gerais, se relaciona com a maneira como a diversidade é percebida e tratada nos contextos escolares pesquisados. Para guiar a investigação, o problema de pesquisa busca responder se a maneira como a escola e os indivíduos que a compõem lidam com a questão das diversidades dentro de seus ambientes, guarda relação com a existência de práticas discriminatória e de exclusão social em seus espaços. Por meio de uma abordagem qualitativa, foram realizadas entrevistas com dez grupos de alunos, estudantes do Ensino Médio, de duas escolas públicas e de duas escolas privadas do município. Os grupos contaram com oito jovens em média em cada um deles. Os achados apontam para uma relação direta entre a forma como as escolas percebem e trabalham com as questões das diversidades e a existência de manifestações de preconceito e discriminação em seus contextos.

Published: December 2023

No contexto das eleições presidenciais brasileiras de 2022, informações falsas envolvendo atores políticos ligados a Lula e Bolsonaro, os principais nomes na disputa pelo Palácio do Planalto, foram difundidas nas redes sociais. O objeto de análise deste trabalho é uma fake news eleitoral (RECUERO; GRUZD, 2019) que coloca no centro da narrativa a deputada federal Erika Hilton, uma das primeiras parlamentares trans na história do Congresso Nacional. Através de um estudo de caso (YIN, 2001), de ordem qualitativa e exploratória (GIL, 2008), este trabalho objetiva relacionar a veiculação de fake news nas redes sociais à criação de pânicos morais (MISKOLCI, 2007, 2021; MISKOLCI; CAMPANA, 2017) centrados em padrões de cisnormatividade (VERGUEIRO, 2016; BENTO, 2017). Como resultados, foi possível notar uma ação combinada de empreendedores morais, visando produzir pânico moral atrelado à questões de gênero, religião e negação de direitos.

O presente artigo objetiva examinar 15 oficinas didáticas realizadas em 2022 para alunas de ensino médio de escolas estaduais situadas no litoral norte paulista. Essas oficinas que foram denominadas “Meninas brincam de carrinho” duravam entre 3 e 4 horas e eram realizadas para grupos com entre 15 e 20 meninas. A principal tarefa das oficinas era a montagem de carrinhos (brinquedos) movidos a energia solar pelas alunas, mas as participantes aprenderam também sobre conceitos científicos que explicam o funcionamento destes carrinhos, sobre a História da participação das mulheres na ciência e sobre estereótipos de gênero e lutas por equidade. Os dados obtidos indicam que é importante trabalhar em aula com as mulheres que se destacaram ao longo da História da Ciência para fornecer modelos de mulheres cientistas para as meninas.
A RESISTÊNCIA DAS MULHERES NA EDUCAÇÃO
Authors: Gomes da Costa Sitta Sueli , De Oliveira Legendre Alexandre
Published: December 2023

É possível observar por parte de toda a análise das narrativas bibliográficas aqui feitas, as distinções entre as carreiras de homens e mulheres, a partir das atribuições sociais impostas às mulheres que interferem na progressão de suas carreiras. A atenção para tal ponto principal se dá para o poder que atravessa as relações sociais constituindo identidades e diferenças que geram preconceitos de gênero. Além disto, reflete-se aqui sobre os diversos tipos de violências sofridas pelas mulheres na área acadêmica a fim de promover maior debate sobre o assunto. Portanto, pode-se concluir que, a trajetória da mulher foi e continua sendo construída em um ambiente baseado em valores e padrões masculinos que restringem e dificultam a participação e o reconhecimento das mulheres na pesquisa.

O diagnóstico positivo para o HIV/aids implica em (des)aprender maneiras de ser e estar na cultura. Nesse sentido, os influenciadores digitais Lucas Raniel e Vitor Ramos, através dos reels de seus perfis do Instagram, buscam ensinar seus seguidores modos de viver com a infecção. Ambos são PVHA e produzem conteúdos direcionados para a promoção dos cuidados em saúde e prevenção às ISTs. Nosso objetivo foi analisar quais as (des)construções de preconceitos e estigmas em torno da infecção são acionadas e como as normativas de gênero e sexualidade são transgredidas ou reiteradas nos corpos das PVHA. Nossa pesquisa está embasada no campo dos Estudos Culturais em Educação, considerando os seguintes aportes teóricos: representação (HALL, 2016), pedagogias culturais (ANDRADE; COSTA, 2015) e gênero e sexualidade (BUTLER, 2020; PRECIADO, 2014). Foi possível identificar através das análises a construção de masculinidades desviantes da norma e as estratégias acionadas no enfrentamento ao estigma e preconceito.
AS CRIANÇAS E O VENTO
Authors: Araújo Maria José , Monteiro Hugo
Published: December 2023

Só se entende a natureza quando a percorremos e dela fazemos parte integrante, dizia Henry Thoreau em Walden ou a Vida nos Bosques, a propósito da sensação de liberdade que um passeio ao ar livre, pelos bosques, pode trazer ao caminhante.  É delicioso quando o corpo é um só sentido e aspira deleite através de cada poro, (Thoreau, 1999: 149). Essa estranha liberdade cria afinidade com as folhas esvoaçantes, que cortam a respiração, sobretudo quando o vento sopra e ruge, levanta as folhas e faz alertas: uma espécie de sentinela da terra, previne o coelho para que fuja da raposa e alerta as crianças para a velocidade e a leveza, incentivando-as a correr atrás das folhas e a brincar com elas, no espaço. O espaço porque fundamental para o ser humano em geral, e em particular para as crianças, é um indicador do que se pode fazer. Quando não se tem bosque, não se viaja? Imagina-se?

Neste texto, e a partir de uma reflexão sobre os modos de brincar ao ar livre, sugerimos ao leitor que experimente pensar o que sente uma criança que não corre no vento, não o sente no rosto, não apanha folhas, não brinca com os animais, mas tem de construir histórias. Uma criança que não brinca em meio aberto, mas antes respira o ar saturado da sala de aula fechada, plena de gente em que o vento não se sente nem circula a não ser no inverno das tempestades. A nossa reflexão estende-se à institucionalização da infância e aos espaços e tempos a que habituamos as crianças. Ao longo da narrativa, que decorre do nosso trabalho com crianças, mas também com os adultos que com elas trabalham, lembramos a necessidade de deslocalizar o tema da natureza da escola, para o pensar a partir do brincar e da brincadeira que permite a conscientização ambiental e dos diversos ecossistemas.

Este estudo buscou identificar quais as concepções sobre Educação Ambiental dos estudantes do curso de Licenciatura em Ciências Biológicas da Universidade Federal da Paraíba, e como estes pensam poder contribuir com as temáticas ambientais e de saúde em sala de aula, a partir da Educação Ambiental. Através de uma abordagem qualitativa e sob orientação epistemológica do Materialismo Histórico-Dialético, foi aplicado um questionário com vinte estudantes do Curso de Licenciatura em Ciências Biológicas, da Universidade Federal da Paraíba, para compreender as concepções dos mesmos sobre a Educação Ambiental e a abordagem teórica e metodológica de temas educacionais, ambientais e de saúde nas escolas. Como resultados, foi possível observar diversidade de concepções sobre a EA, assim como incoerências que refletem a falta de embasamento teórico sobre suas vertentes e a superficialidade de discursos sobre a reflexão e a crítica em suas práticas. Concluiu-se que o aprofundamento e a compreensão da EA Crítica se fazem solícitos na formação inicial e continuada de sujeitos que atuarão na educação na busca de transformação da realidade.

Na atual crise socioambiental, vivências e sociabilidades das mulheres quebradeiras de coco babaçu inspiraram a proposição deste estudo, que tem a Educação Ambiental Crítica como ferramenta de contraposição à intensificação dos processos de desenvolvimento econômico capitalista. Capítulos de Na Terra das Palmeiras: gênero, trabalho e identidades no universo das quebradeiras de coco babaçu no Maranhão (BARBOSA, 2014) foram analisados com base na Teoria Crítica na Educação Ambiental e nos pressupostos da ecologia marxista. Os resultados revelam: a existência de elementos que viabilizam a representação dos povos tradicionais em abordagens socioambientais críticas; as quebradeiras como propulsoras em abordagens da dimensão ambiental em toda sua complexidade, incluindo as dimensões de trabalho e gênero no modelo de desenvolvimento capitalista; e o papel das extrativistas na luta por uma sociedade justa, culturalmente diversa e ecologicamente sustentável, especialmente quando mediadas pela Educação Ambiental.
As ecologias e as trevas
Authors: Barchi Rodrigo
Published: December 2023

O texto aborda, de início, a concepção de mundo em ruínas na obra de Akira Kurosawa em diálogo com o pensamento de Davi Kopenawa, e também em alguns estudos sobre a concepção do inferno no pensamento ocidental. Adiante, apresenta as noções de Antropoceno, Capitaloceno, Plantationceno e Chthuluceno, como perspectivas para entender a atual conjuntura ecológica e geológica planetária. Busca ainda construir a concepção de Infer(ce)no, como um momento de construção de paisagens infernais pelas ações humanas. Finalmente, discute as possibilidades de se pensar e fazer educações ambientais no contexto do que chamamos de “infercênico”. Tal dimensão talvez possa barrar, impedir ou adiar a conjuntura atual de destruição e violência sofrida pelas paisagens, pelos seres humanos e não-humanos. A proposta é questionar sobre quais educações ambientais são necessárias e possíveis perante contextos que chamamos de infernais no decorrer do ensaio.

A partir do contexto de mudança e inovação surgido nas últimas décadas, emerge o conceito de Indústria 4.0, que apresenta-se como alternativa e solução para empresas que visam integrar seus processos e cadeias produtivas, aumentando sua participação no mercado e gerando mais ganhos ao decorrer das operações. Em vista disso, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar e mensurar o índice de maturidade de uma indústria com foco na fabricação de produtos eletromédicos perante o seu alinhamento frente à Indústria 4.0. Baseando-se em métodos de medição do índice de maturidade, a pesquisa utilizar-se-á de um checklist, de modo a estimar e avaliar o grau de inserção da organização em estudo no ambiente 4.0. Tais objetivos propostos no início do estudo foram cumpridos, indicando a pontuação final de 4,06 no índice geral de maturidade, refletindo a visão que o gestor possui sobre os processos e tecnologias utilizadas pela empresa diante do ambiente 4.0.
Interdisciplinary teaching practices in STEAM education in Brazil
Authors: Abra Olivato Juliana , Castro Silva José
Published: December 2023

This study explored primary school teachers’ self-efficacy beliefs about interdisciplinary teaching practices related to science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) education and project-based learning to understand teacher perceptions and practices and to recommend some teacher training according to the national curricular standards in Brazil. Qualitative data were gathered using semi-structured interviews carried out with in-service teachers, which were supplemented by a questionnaire featuring both closed-ended and open-ended questions. The data were subsequently subjected to quantitative analysis. The findings reveal that while most teachers are familiar with and incorporate project-based learning into their pedagogical approaches, their awareness of and training in STEAM education are limited. Nevertheless, teachers perceived themselves as being very competent across most STEAM domains, including interdisciplinary curricular integration and projects. Chemistry, physics and arts are exceptions, with lower levels of teacher self-efficacy when compared to the other disciplines. This article examines the implications of these findings for pedagogical practices and teacher training in Brazil, while addressing what are teachers’ current perceptions of STEAM practices, encompassing project-based learning and interdisciplinarity. It identifies the training requirements necessary to enhance their confidence in teaching science, while integrating arts-related subjects.
Juicio(s) y castigo(s). Memorias y demandas de justicia por el asesinato de David Cilleruelo (Bahía Blanca, 1975–1995)
Authors: Marinozzi Matías
Published: December 2023

El artículo analiza las articulaciones entre las narrativas sociales y las demandas de justicia articuladas en torno al asesinato del dirigente estudiantil y militante comunista David “Watu” Cilleruelo perpetrado por la Triple A en Bahía Blanca el 3 abril de 1975. En este sentido, se persiguen dos objetivos. Por un lado, analizar sincrónica y diacrónicamente las formas en que distintos actores interpretaron el crimen, qué ideas de justicia pusieron en juego, cómo identificaron y caracterizaron a los responsables y cómo definieron el “castigo adecuado” en diversos escenarios. Por otro lado, indagar acerca de las narrativas sobre el crimen producidas o activadas en cada escenario, así como sus acomodamientos o tensiones con las memorias del terrorismo de estado dominantes a escala nacional.
El «último» reagrupamiento montonero.
Authors: Roland Ernesto
Published: December 2023

En este artículo reconstruimos la trayectoria de la vertiente militante ligada a Montoneros y a la Tendencia Revolucionaria del Peronismo en el segundo tramo de los años ochenta. Veremos que a través de la agrupación Peronismo Revolucionario (PR), la histórica conducción de Montoneros logró cohesionar una importante base militante en un contexto extremadamente adverso. La estigmatización de la identidad montonera desde su asociación a la violencia política, derivó en que la dirigencia de la corriente fuera excluida del campo político democrático. Sin embargo, al contar con un significativo capital militante, el peronismo de extracción montonera sostuvo su presencia política y desplegó diversas estrategias de inserción social y política.
A Look at Violence Against Women in Maceió and Alagoas (Brazil)
Authors: Andrade Martins Rubens , Manzini Ana Paula Moura , Bacha Elizabeth
Published: December 2023

Violence against women can be understood as a form of restriction of their freedom, autonomy, and self-determination, and can be presented in the following types of violence: physical, psychological, sexual, property, and moral. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that approximately one in three women in the Americas suffer sexual and/or physical violence. This research focuses on this subject, which is so dear and topical - even though it has been around for thousands of years - by analyzing data on violence against women in Maceió and Alagoas (Brazil), comparing the results, investigating socio-demographic characteristics, observing risk factors and also scrutinizing how this woman-victim is approached. An analysis of the data obtained showed that there were 7,078 notifications of cases of violence against women in the state of Alagoas in 2022. Of those notifications, 36.3% were situations of domestic violence, 62.15% of the victims were pardas (black), 44.5% were aged between 35 and 64, 50.32% had suffered moral and psychological violence and 41.1% involved women living in the capital, Maceió. Concerning Maceió, the results were very similar to those of Alagoas and the neighborhoods with the highest number of records were Benedito Bentes (11.74%), Cidade Universitária (11.05%) and Tabuleiro do Martins (7.55%), allowing us to conclude the presence of a pattern of violence against women in outskirts locations. Due to the seriousness of the physical, emotional, and psychological consequences, this panorama and problem should be a constant focus of debate and research in a country that has exorbitant rates of violence against women.

Authors: Ibrahim Mohamed Akhiruddin
Published: December 2023

The implementation of Tahfiz Model Ulul Albab (TMUA) program is an effort of Ministry of Education in expanding tahfiz education, which has an increasing demand for admission among parents every year. After ten years of the program implementation since 2014, there were still many problems and issues arose such as the level of students’ achievement in memorizing Al-Qur’an is still not yet satisfactory. Past research findings show that not all TMUA students able to complete the Al-Qur’an memorization of 30 juzuk within five years of study as outlined by the Ministry of Education. Hence, this study aims to see the achievement of Al-Qur’an memorization among Sekolah Berasrama Penuh students in the period of five months. The percentage of students’ achievement records were taken starting from school opening in March until August 2023 to examine the level of students’ achievement in completing their Al-Qur’an memorization based on prescribed syllabus. The findings show that all the SBP schools have achieved more than 50% of students who were able to complete the Al-Qur’an memorization target within the set time, however the number of students that unable to reach the prescribed syllabus are still high and not yet satisfactory.
New Evidence for Sumerian Agricultural Land Terminology in Sargonic Umma
Authors: Alessawe Hanan Abd Alhamza
Published: December 2023

This article presents an unpublished cuneiform tablet measuring 13.5 × 14.0 × 1.5 cm. that has been confiscated and now bears the accession number I.M. 204249. According to its palaeography, form, content, prosopography and the mu – iti dating formula, it originates from the Umma region and dates to the Old Akkadian period. It contains a list of different field types of varying sizes leased to a large number of people and hence lends itself to a study of agricultural land terminology.
The Archaeological Distribution of the Cuneiform Corpus
Authors: Rattenborg Rune , Smidt Gustav Ryberg , Johansson Carolin , Melin-Kronsell Nils , Nett Seraina
Published: December 2023

The present study offers a first comprehensive, quantifiable overview of the geographical extent and scale of the cuneiform corpus. Though one of the oldest and longest-lived scripts in history, the sheer size of this corpus, being among the largest discrete bodies of written source material from the pre-modern world, is seldom properly appreciated. We review and evaluate past quantitative assessments of the corpus and current levels of catalogue digitisation and integration, pointing to gaps in general catalogues and principal issues relating to the quantification and interrogation of textual sources at the corpus-level. Combining a newly developed open access spatial index of c. 600 locations from across Europe, Asia, and Africa where cuneiform texts have been found with a quantitative survey of reported finds from scholarly literature, we then proceed to discuss the formation of the cuneiform corpus as an archaeological artefact. Aided by an extremely broad diachronic and diatopic outlook on a uniquely large body of written source material, this study offers an innovative and novel perspective on written corpora as archaeological artefacts.
