Os participantes foram submetidos a dois questionários: um semiestruturado, desenvolvido para a caracterização dos sujeitos e o outro o World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale – Bref (WHOQOL-Bref) para identificação da Qualidade de Vida (QV) dos mesmos. A análise dos dados foi realizada de modo descritivo. Resultados Foram entrevistados oito sujeitos com idade entre 35 e 78 anos e escolaridade variando entre Ensino Fundamental Incompleto e Superior Incompleto. A ocupação predominante na amostra foi a de balconista e a renda variou entre um e quatro salários mínimos. O tempo de lesão cerebral variou de três a 10 anos, causada predominantemente por Acidentes Vasculares Cerebrais decorrentes de Hipertensão Arterial Sistêmica. Quanto ao WHOQOL houve importante variação entre os sujeitos nos quatro domínios (físico, psicológico, social e ambiental). No entanto, a maioria pontuou acima de 70 pontos. Para todos os sujeitos, o Grupo de Convivência foi identificado como espaço de produção de vida e saúde sendo motivador para a busca de outros atendimentos. Conclusão Os sujeitos eram adultos e idosos pertencentes à classe econômica média baixa; apresentavam condições crônicas de saúde, comprometimento da expressão verbal e longo período de acompanhamento das necessidades de saúde. O WHOQOL-Bref revelou que cinco sujeitos perceberam suas condições de vida/saúde favoráveis, no entanto, destacaram convívio social reduzido. O Grupo de Convivência configurou-se como importante espaço para melhoria de QV.

A Monetary-Fiscal Theory of Sudden Inflations and Currency Crises
Authors: Miller David S.
Published: August 2021

Treating nominal government bonds like other bonds leads to a new theory of sudden inflations and currency crises. Holmstrom (2015) and Gorton (2017) describe bonds as having costly-to-investigate opaque backing that consumers believe is sufficient for repayment. Government bonds' nominal return is their face value, their real return is determined by the government's surplus. In normal times, consumers are confident of repayment but ignorant of the true surpluses that will fund that repayment. When consumers' belief in real repayment wavers, they investigate surpluses. If consumers learn surpluses will be insufficient to repay bonds in real terms, the price level jumps. This explains why we observe inflationary crises, but never deflationary.

The economic feasibility of using aluminum as a conductive material is explained by the favorable ratio of its cost to the cost of copper. It is also important that the cost of aluminum for many years remains virtually unchanged.

When using conductive aluminum alloys for the manufacture of thin wire, winding wire, etc. Certain difficulties may arise in connection with their insufficient strength and a small number of kinks before fracture. In recent years, aluminum alloys have been developed, which even in a soft state have strength characteristics that allow them to be used as a conductive material.

One of the promising areas for the use of aluminum is the electrical industry. Conducting aluminum alloys of the E-AlMgSi type (Aldrey) are representatives of this group of alloys. The paper presents the results of a study of the temperature dependence of heat capacity, heat transfer coefficient, and thermodynamic functions of an aluminum alloy E-AlMgSi (Aldrey) with bismuth. Research conducted in the "cooling" mode.

It was shown that the temperature capacity and the thermodynamic functions of the alloy E-AlMgSi (Aldrey) with bismuth increase with temperature, and the Gibbs energy decreases. Additives of bismuth up to 1 wt.% Reduce heat capacity, heat transfer coefficient, enthalpy and entropy of the initial alloy and increase the value of Gibbs energy.

Authors: Annisa Onni , Hapsari Yulia
Published: August 2021

Standards of being a professional teacher in Indonesia have been set by the government in the Teachers Law Number 14, 2005. One of the requirements is having four teacher competences; pedagogical, personality, social and professional competences. Yet, the empirical data show that Indonesian education quality and teacher competence are still below the standards, including English teacher. This concern leads curiosity about pre-service teachers’ awareness of this situation. Therefore, this study was aimed to discover EFL pre-service teachers’ perception on the criteria of an ideal English teacher within the framework of the four teachers’ standard competences, the most important competence and their consideration in choosing it. By using explanatory sequential mixed method, 100 EFL pre-service teachers were involved. The data were gathered through a questionnaire, then followed up by an interview to some participants. As the result, a divergence finding was found. Personality competence obtained the highest mean score on the criteria of an ideal English teacher while pedagogical competence was opted as the most important competence. Further, an interview was done to reveal considerations contributing to the divergence finding. The interviewees agreed with the criteria constructing the personality competence as teachers are role model who must set good example for their students. However, teaching is teachers’ main task where they need to deliver their knowledge to students in order to achieve the learning goals through pedagogical competence. This study concludes that not only pedagogical competence that mater in teaching, but teachers’ personality is also crucial.

A Comparative Analysis of the Reading Comprehension Levels and Reading Attitude Skills of Gifted and Nongifted Fifth Grade Students
Authors: ÖKCÜ Murat , AKGÜL Savaş
Published: August 2021

Gifted children differ from their nongifted counterparts in that they show different ways of thinking, maintain higher levels of attention, manifest advanced cognitive skills, and enjoy researching and exploring (Clark, 2012). These differences are also reflected in their attitude to reading and reading comprehension skills. Regarding this, the current study aims to examine the reading attitudes and reading comprehension skills of a group of gifted and nongifted fifth grade students. The participants of the study comprise of 401 children (168 gifted, 223 nongifted). Data for the study were collected through the Personal Information Form designed by the researchers, the Reading Comprehension Test prepared based on the questions in the Free Boarding and Scholarship Examination for the Fifth Graders administered by the Ministry of Education, and the Reading Attitude Scale developed by Karahan (2018). Data were analyzed with SPSS 24.0 program (independent sample t-test, one-way analysis of variance [ANOVA], and pearson correlation analysis). The findings of the study indicate that gifted students’ reading comprehension skills differ significantly from those of the nongifted, which shows that gifted students have higher levels of reading comprehension than their nongifted peers. Considering the variables including gender, pre-school education, and time allocated for daily extracurricular reading, a significant difference was found among the gifted students who allocated two or more hours for daily extracurricular reading. That is, the students in this group showed higher reading comprehension skills than the others. However, no significant difference was found between reading attitude and time allocated to extracurricular reading for the gifted. Similarly, no significant difference was observed between extracurricular daily reading duration and reading comprehension skills for the nongifted participants. While a significant difference was observed between the pre-school education status of the nongifted female students and their reading comprehension skills and reading attitudes, no significant difference was found for the nongifted male students. No significant difference was observed between the reading attitudes of the gifted students and their reading comprehension skills. However, a significant difference was observed between the nongifted students’ reading attitudes and reading comprehension skills.
Anti-Corruption Education in the Activities of Prosecutors and Peculiarities of its Legal Regulation
Authors: Shobukhin V. Yu.
Published: August 2021

Corruption is one of the most pressing problems and real threats to the national security of every state, including Russia. The Prosecutor’s Office of the Russian Federation plays a key role in the fight against corruption. One of the most effective ways to counter this antisocial phenomenon is prevention. The author proposes the concept of "anti-corruption education", which is unusual for the legislation on the prosecutor’s office and prosecutorial practice, in relation to the activities of prosecutors, defines the concept and explains the main directions, forms and methods. Two main areas of this prosecutor’s activity are indicated: 1) anti-corruption education of prosecutors themselves; 2) anti-corruption education (including within the framework of legal informing the population) of other persons. The author examines thier content, identifies common problems and proposes solutions. The specific features of anti-corruption education within the framework of the system of professional training and advanced training of prosecutors are analyzed separately. The paper explains the role and positive value of legal education and legal information as effective tools of anti-corruption education of citizens. Based on the analysis of the practice of prosecutorial activities, the authors noted the demand for active anti-corruption informing of the population, increasing the anti-corruption legal awareness of citizens (especially young people). The paper elucidates the effectiveness of organizing and conducting thematic lectures and other meetings, contests and other game forms of interaction, combining the efforts of the prosecutor’s office with civil society institutions. The potential of anti-corruption informing citizens with the help of Internet resources and the achievements of computer technologies is characterized. Attention is drawn to the expediency of such work in the framework of the implementation of special documentary films and feature films projects devoted to the activities of the prosecutor’s office. The author highlights the importance of anti-corruption education through active and purposeful interaction with the media, including interaction carried out in order to form citizens’ convictions about the inevitability of punishment for corruption crimes. The conclusion is substantiated that the prosecutor who carries out anti-corruption education must certainly meet high moral requirements and be distinguished by an impeccable reputation.
Criminal Law Characteristics of an Organized Group
Authors: Demchuk S. D.
Published: August 2021

The paper examines the content of the organized criminal group characteristics provided for under the law. The criminal activity of a stable association of persons poses an increased public danger. The identification of such facts and their investigation is fraught with significant difficulties that arise also due to the evaluative nature of the concept of "organized group". Therefore, its essence is analyzed not only on the basis of theoretical sources, but also in the context of judicial practice. The author compares and generalizes the signs listed in the relevant decisions of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation and in court decisions on specific criminal cases. A correct understanding of the organized group characteristics is necessary for the competent qualification of crimes committed by its members, and the successful proof of their fault. The author summarizes that the sustainability of complicity is based on two complementary aspects. The first provides for a close, relatively long-term relationship between members of the group united by criminal motivation and goals (which ensures the stability of its main composition), as well as the recognition by ordinary participants of the decisions of their leader or the leading core of the group or decisions jointly made by the group as binding. The second aspect of sustainability provides for the implementation of effective criminal activity through the advance development of its plan and a clear distribution of role functions among the group members, ensuring the consistency of their actions, and the implementation of other measures necessary for the successful achievement of the intended goals. In cases where the conspiracy of the members of the group occurred immediately before the commission of the crime or took place in advance, but there was no close relationship and careful joint preparation for it we deal with a group of persons created by prior conspiracy due to the lack of stability of such an association.
Market structure, state ownership and monetary policy transmission through bank lending channel: Evidence from Vietnamese commercial banks
Authors: Nguyen Huu Huan , Ngo Minh Vu , Nguyen Thanh Phuc
Published: August 2021

This paper examines the impact of market structure and state ownership on bank lending as a transmission channel for monetary policies. For controlling the effects of bank heterogeneities and macroeconomic factors on bank lending, dynamic models using two-step difference GMM with panel data collected from 25 Vietnamese commercial banks and the Vietnamese banking sector from 1999 to 2017 are employed. Results indicate that a higher level of concentration in the banking market and state ownership dampen the expected impacts of interbank interest rate on the loan growth in commercial banks, which decreases the effectiveness of monetary policy via the bank lending channel. These results are robust regarding the use of alternative measures of market structure and the inclusion of event time variables in the dynamic model. Based on the findings, monetary policy could be implied using the significant moderating impacts of state-ownership as well as the market structure of the Vietnamese banking sector on the relationship between bank loan supply and interbank interest rate.

Published: August 2021

BACKGROUND: In recent years, there has been a widespread increase in the incidence of tumors of the pancreatoduodenal zone, especially noticeable in the older age group. A decrease in the incidence of postoperative complications and mortality after pancreatoduodenal resection made it possible to expand the indications for surgical treatment of elderly and senile patients.
AIM: Improvement of the immediate results of pancreatoduodenal resection in the treatment of elderly and senile patients suffering from tumor diseases of the pancreatoduodenal zone.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Pancreatoduodenal resection was performed in 61 elderly and senile patients with tumors of the pancreatoduodenal zone. The main group consisted of 32 patients, whose treatment was carried out in accordance with the developed algorithm for choosing a method for forming a pancreatodigestive anastomosis based on a scale for assessing the risk of developing pancreatic fistulas. The comparison group consisted of 29 patients in whom the method of forming a pancreatodigestive anastomosis was carried out in accordance with the preferences of the operator without taking into account the risk of developing a pancreatic fistula.
RESULTS: In the main group, compared with the control group, pylorus-saving interventions were performed significantly more often 27 (84.4%) and 14 (48.3%) (p 0.01). There was also a decrease in the frequency of performing pancreaticojejunostomy 16 (50%) and 22 (75.9%) (p 0.05), due to the use of reservoir terminolateral pancreatojejunostomy 8 (25%) and 0, respectively (p 0.01). Postoperative complications were observed in 14 (43.8%) of the study group and in 21 (72.4%) patients of the comparison group (p 0.05). There was also a decrease in the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistulas from 8 (27.6%) to 2 (6.2%) (p 0.05) in the study group. Repeated surgery was required in 5 (15.6%) patients of the main group and 11 (37.9%) in the comparison group (p 0.05). The lethal outcome was recorded in 3 (9.4%) patients of the main group and in 7 (24.1%) in the comparison group (p 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: The results of performing pancreatoduodenal resection in the treatment of elderly and senile patients can be comparable with the results of treatment of the general population. The use of the developed algorithm made it possible to reliably reduce the incidence of complications from 72.4 to 43.8% (p 0.05), postoperative pancreatic fistulas from 27.6 to 6.2% (p 0.05), as well as the frequency of repeated interventions. from 37.9 to 15.6 % (p 0.05). In addition, a downward trend in mortality was achieved from 24.1% to 9.4%.

Published: August 2021

AIM: The aim was to assess systemic transport of amoxicillin, the most common antibiotic in H. pylori eradication regimens to the gastric in atrophic gastritis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Systemic transport of amoxicillin to the gastric lumen of rats was evaluated in washes from the gastric mucosa in the model of atrophic gastritis after intravenous drug infusion. Transport of amoxicillin from bloodstream to the gastric lumen was also assessed in patients with atrophic and non-atrophic gastritis in aspirated via nasogastric probe gastric juice after oral drug administration. Amoxicillin concentration was measured in samples using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.
RESULTS: In rats with induced atrophic gastritis, hyperemia and acute erosions of the gastric mucosa, as well as microscopic signs of non-active chronic body gastritis and non-active antral atrophic gastritis were found. Amoxicillin concentration in washes from the gastric mucosa was significantly (p 0.01) higher in rats of experimental group than in control group at all time points (30, 60, 120, 240 min after drug infusion). The lowest mean amoxicillin concentration in gastric juice was observed in patients with antral atrophy (p 0.01). The maximum amoxicillin concentration in gastric secretion was found at the 180th min of aspiration in patients with atrophy of gastric mucosa, while in patients of the group of comparison it was found at 30-120th min of aspiration.
CONCLUSIONS: Acute gastric mucosa erosions enhance amoxicillin delivery to gastric lumen in rats. Atrophy of antral mucosa more than in the corpus is characterized by decreased amoxicillin transfer from systemic bloodstream to gastric lumen in patients after oral amoxicillin intake. The gastric mucosa atrophy should be taken into consideration while predicting the efficacy of H. pylori eradication therapy in patients with chronic gastritis.

Published: August 2021

Traditional research in Job Shop Scheduling (JSS) is largely based on combinatorial analysis. Unfortunately, the NP-complete nature of the problem forces many assumptions into existing models that result in wide discrepancies between the real nature of the problem and the specifically limiting solutions that are obtainable through mathematical analysis. In recent years, several researchers have called for research into the Dynamic Job Shop Scheduling (DJSS) problem using a new approach that combines traditional techniques with other methodologies. The work described in this dissertation presents a framework that blends a classical decision rule, with other relevant characteristics pertaining to customers, jobs and their potential future values for decision making in a real time scheduling environment, while accounting for various contingencies involving planned and unplanned downtime, customer order changes, etc. The implementation of structured modeling permits the interchange of components, thus permitting configuration of the system by the decision maker (DM) to satisfy his particular requirements. Imbedded expert systems (ES) control constraint violations. For example, if a job is in danger of being late, an ES can make changes automatically, or suggest alternatives to an interactive DM. Also, an ES can handle a machine that has more scheduled work than time available (bottleneck condition) and take corrective action, or suggest alternatives to the DM. For illustrative purposes, a Real Time Dynamic Job Shop Scheduling System (RTSS) is developed on the basis of such a framework. The impact on the set of classical job shop scheduling assumptions is reviewed and most can be relaxed, indicating flexibility in the system. This research represents a significant contribution to reducing the difference between traditional job shop scheduling research and the real problems of dynamic job shop scheduling.

Authors: Torres Ramírez Leidy Marleny , Camero Rodríguez Laura Natalia , Cuevas Lara Nicolás
Published: August 2021

El presente proyecto tiene como objetivo diseñar una estrategia de internacionalización para pymes de la industria de la madera en Colombia. Lo anterior por medio de un proceso metodológico mixto, con primacía cualitativa. Esto mediante el análisis de datos encontrados en Emis University de 228 empresas pertenecientes al subsector maderero, con las cuales se realiza una caracterización para determinar el posible comportamiento de la industria. Adicionalmente se realiza una serie de entrevistas a empresas potenciales para la internacionalización con el fin de conocer oportunidades, amenazas, debilidades y fortalezas; en el momento que la empresa decide tener una visión a mercados globales. Por eso se pretende diseñar una estrategia de internacionalización que en primer momento se enfoque en las empresas dedicadas exclusivamente al tratamiento, manipulación y venta de productos a base de madera, pero que no se cierra a la oportunidad de que dicha estrategia sirva para otros sectores económicos.
Venglustat, Acetato de Lanreotida y Tolvaptan como opciones terapéuticas para el tratamiento de la enfermedad renal poliquística autosómica dominante: revisión narrativa
Authors: Valencia Quintero Juan Sebastian , Castillo Diana
Published: August 2021

Introduction: autosomal polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a hereditary orphan disease, with an average world prevalence of 2.7 per 100,000 inhabitants. Until recently, treatment was limited to the control of clinical manifestations, but since 2015 with the appearance of tolvaptan, the disease has been managed and the introduction of venglustat and lanreotide acetate as treatment makes it necessary to review therapeutic options.
Methods: narrative review in PubMed, Cochrane Library, OVID, EBSCO and Google Scholar.
Results: Were obtained 92 articles in the search strategy, of which five were included in the qualitative analysis. The TEMPO 3: 4 Study showed that tolvaptan reduced the annual growth rate in the total kidney volume from 5.5% to 2.8% (p <0.001), reducing the deterioration of the filtration rate. Glomerular tissue estimated at −3.70 to −2.72 mL/min/1.73 m2 (p <0.001) compared to placebo. THE DIPAK 1: evidence that lanreotide reduces kidney volume compared to placebo (4.15% vs. 5.56%; per year; 95% CI: -2.41% to -0.24%; p= 0.02). Venglustat clinical trials showed preliminary improvement in the annualized rate of change in total kidney volume (TKV) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), according to the results of preclinical studies, however, they are still in study.
Conclusions: ADPKD is a pathology with few therapeutic options and with recent treatments incorporated, currently under investigation. This article sets the guide for future study design quantitative.

The objective of this research is to analyze the impact of Institutional Improvement Plans (PMI) on accreditation results for the Higher-level Technical Institutes, in Chile, understanding that ensuring quality is crucial to providing educational services of excellence, being accreditation its achievements indicator. Through a qualitative methodology, the results of institutional accreditation were reviewed, by analyzing strengths and weaknesses for the areas assessed. The results show that while is there a relative relationship between the implementation of PMI and the accreditation-years obtained, the data collected are insufficient to demonstrate its impact, since the relationships between the areas evaluated and the improvements proposed by the PMI were not found. In conclusion, it is recommended to perform a comprehensive review of the allocation of resources and conditions under which it is applied, as well as the identification of its true impact on quality improvement, in Chile.
First Records of Freckled Madtom (Noturus nocturnus) in Ohio, USA
Authors: Sarver Matthew A. , Yoder Chris O.
Published: August 2021

Two new Ohio localities for the Freckled Madtom (Noturus nocturnus Jordan and Gilbert, 1886) were recently discovered. These are the first, and currently only, Freckled Madtom collected in Ohio waters. A single individual was collected in the Scioto River in Scioto County by the Midwest Biodiversity Institute (MBI) and a previously misidentified specimen was collected in the Ohio River at the Hannibal Locks and Dam by the Ohio River Valley Water Sanitation Commission (ORSANCO). The closest historical records are from the Little Sandy River and Big Sandy River drainages in eastern Kentucky. Other Ohio River collections have been made near the border of Kentucky and Indiana. The origins of the recent Ohio specimens are unknown; whether they emanate from other known populations or have been overlooked altogether is unclear.

Escola e Docência: a autonomia é admissível?
Authors: Aguiar Débora Cristina Vasconcelos , Barguil Paulo Meireles
Published: August 2021

Este artigo tem como objetivo refletir sobre a admissibilidade da autonomia docente no ambiente escolar. Considerando o complexo cenário social e as suas contradições, indagamos: “Como os diversos propositores de uma Educação para a autonomia consideram os conflitos na sociedade e na escola?”, “De que maneira os diferentes paradigmas de gestão/administração escolar influenciam a vivência da autonomia nesse ambiente?”, “As condições do trabalho docente impedem ou contribuem para a autonomia do professor?”. Este artigo, que é uma revisão narrativa de literatura, reflete sobre algumas propostas de gestão/administração da instituição escolar, analisando-as a partir de suas tensões e contradições com o projeto de sociedade que sustentam, bem como das suas aproximações com a ideia de uma Educação para a autonomia. Em seguida, abordamos os desafios do exercício da autonomia, a partir de Contreras (2012), destacando os saberes necessários para a construção do trabalho e da identidade docentes. Concluímos, a partir dessa discussão, que a gestão democrática e a descentralização política são indispensáveis para a autonomia escolar, docente e discente.
