Adolescent suicide risk factors and the integration of social-emotional skills in school-based prevention programs
Authors: Liu Xin-Qiao , Wang Xin
Published: April 2024

Adolescents are considered one of the most vulnerable groups affected by suicide. Rapid changes in adolescents’ physical and mental states, as well as in their lives, significantly and undeniably increase the risk of suicide. Psychological, social, family, individual, and environmental factors are important risk factors for suicidal behavior among teenagers and may contribute to suicide risk through various direct, indirect, or combined pathways. Social-emotional learning is considered a powerful intervention measure for addressing the crisis of adolescent suicide. When deliberately cultivated, fostered, and enhanced, self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, interpersonal skills, and responsible decision-making, as the five core competencies of social-emotional learning, can be used to effectively target various risk factors for adolescent suicide and provide necessary mental and interpersonal support. Among numerous suicide intervention methods, school-based interventions based on social-emotional competence have shown great potential in preventing and addressing suicide risk factors in adolescents. The characteristics of school-based interventions based on social-emotional competence, including their appropriateness, necessity, cost-effectiveness, comprehensiveness, and effectiveness, make these interventions an important means of addressing the crisis of adolescent suicide. To further determine the potential of school-based interventions based on social-emotional competence and better address the issue of adolescent suicide, additional financial support should be provided, the combination of social-emotional learning and other suicide prevention programs within schools should be fully leveraged, and cooperation between schools and families, society, and other environments should be maximized. These efforts should be considered future research directions.

The present study aimed to analyze political-pedagogical projects of higher education courses in the health field to identify how literacy and health education have been included in the training of students. A cross-sectional and documentary study was performed through the analysis of political-pedagogical projects of higher education courses in the health field in force in 2023. Political-pedagogical projects of nursing, medicine, and dentistry courses of a public university and a private university center in the city of Montes Claros, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, were analyzed through detailed readings conducted by three independent researchers. The private university center has more up-to-date projects, apart from the medical course. There were no direct mentions of health literacy in the political-pedagogical projects. The nursing program at the private university center had the highest number of cataloged courses within this spectrum. The nursing and dentistry courses at the private university center presented more topics related to health education than the same courses at the public university. Weaknesses were observed in the approach to health literacy in the political-pedagogical projects of the courses evaluated, considering their relevance for professional training and for the autonomy of citizens in making decisions related to their own health. However, the documents included subjects related to health education, particularly in the initial and intermediate periods, which allows the sensitization of future professionals to the topic.

Published: April 2024

La naturaleza para las religiones de matriz africana tiene un significado sagrado que conecta el mundo material y espiritual, ya que a través de las plantas, portadoras del àse, los Òrisà se manifiestan en el mundo humano. Un bioma como el Atlántico tiene un potencial de uso beneficioso para el Candomblé, debido a la vasta diversidad florística y ecosistémica, ya que tiene alrededor de 20 mil especies vegetales catalogadas, siendo relevante e interesante para estas comunidades. Esta investigación buscó reconocer las plantas utilizadas por los terreros candomblecistas de Santa Catarina, evidenciando el uso de especies nativas del Atlántico y buscando la protección del patrimonio cultural y natural en el estado. Para ello se seleccionaron artículos, tesis y disertaciones que integran el objetivo de la investigación, en las bases de datos - CAPES, EBSCO, Google Scholar y Scielo - y en los repositorios de las universidades catarinenses, además de entrevistas semiestructuradas con sacerdotes/sacerdotisas. La búsqueda generó una matriz de 89 especies, en las cuales se analizó el uso, origen y región de ocurrencia en Brasil. De estas, 25 son nativas del estado, 29 naturalizadas y 35 exóticas, originarias principalmente de Asia. Después del análisis cualitativo y cuantitativo de los datos, se destaca la fuerte relación entre las comunidades tradicionales y el Atlántico, como dimensión divina, pero contradictoriamente poca provisión de plantas nativas como recurso para los rituales. Si por un lado, la perspectiva inmaterial del bosque como territorio sagrado predice su conservación, por otro lado, el uso indiscriminado de plantas exóticas puede ser un grave problema de conservación en detrimento del fenómeno de bioinvasión.

Introduction: this article was conducted in the field of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test safety, where it is essential to understand the contribution and impact of risk analysis methods to improve test safety medical diagnosis at the institutional level. In this context, the current study focuses on failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) applied to the Perkin-Elmer/Cetus deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) thermocycler.Objective: to describe the application of FMEA to improve the operational safety of Perkin-Elmer/Cetus DNA thermal cyclers used in medical diagnostics in ataxic patients. Methods: to carry out this study, a methodology based on an exhaustive review of the scientific literature available in academic databases and relevant sources was used. Previous studies on FMEA analysis of DNA thermocyclers in common and expanded forms were collected and analyzed.Results: the results obtained demonstrated that FMEA is an effective tool to identify and evaluate possible failure modes of Perkin-Elmer/Cetus DNA thermal cyclers. Several defects were identified and their consequences, causes and classification based on their severity and frequency were determined. Likewise, corrective actions are proposed to reduce the identified risks.Conclusions: early identification of possible failure modes and implementation of corrective actions can reduce risk and guarantee the quality of the diagnoses carried out and therefore improve operational safety

The importance of enhancing social and emotional skills in educational settings has gained prominence, with many countries and organizations embracing the Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) framework to equip individuals with the tools needed for shaping a self-identity, emotional regulation, goal achievement, empathy, nurturing relationships, and responsible decision-making and overall well-being. In this paper, we aim to connect the globally acknowledged Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning SEL framework with international policies that underscore the importance of social and emotional skills in the school context. To accomplish this goal, we first provide a brief overview of the key components of the SEL framework. Subsequently, we explore two significant educational policies within the European context. The first policy is the World Health Organization Health Promoting Schools initiative. We present its objectives, a WHO-affiliated program example, the promoted and assessed competencies of students, and its results, connecting its framework with the CASEL SEL approach. The second focus is the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development Study on Social and Emotional Skills, describing its developmental process and the assessment framework. Finally, we describe the alignment of SEL with these European educational policies and illustrate their role in advancing and improving the evaluation of SEL initiatives in educational environments.

The growing interest in the fish farming industry is driven by the depletion of natural fish stocks in the market. However, intensive aquaculture systems, which involve raising fish in artificial tanks and cages, can lead to challenges such as low-quality fish and increased mortality rates, depending on the species being cultivated. To address these issues and maximize yield, this paper proposes a fish quality monitoring system with automatic correction. The system focuses on monitoring and maintaining critical water quality parameters essential for fish growth, including temperature, water level, and pH level. The system comprises an Arduino connected to sensors and a web-based application for data collection and monitoring. Correction devices such as an aquarium heater, a valve, and a water pump are integrated into the system to maintain these parameters at optimal levels for fish development. To assess the system's efficiency and reliability, two fish monitoring setups were compared: one using the proposed controlled system and the other using a traditional setup. Results indicate that the controlled system increased efficiency, reduced stress on fish farmers, decreased fish mortality rates, and improved product quality compared to the traditional setup.

Esta pesquisa é fruto de uma iniciação cientifica que visa evitar colisões de robôs manipuladores em ambientes industriais. Os manipuladores são essenciais para tarefas industriais, manipulando peças e equipamentos na produção. Um sistema de sensoriamento permite o desvio de rotas, evitando obstáculos e acidentes, garantindo segurança na indústria. O objetivo do projeto é pesquisar problemas de colisões em robôs manipuladores e oferecer uma solução por meio de sensores. Para alcançar a solução, foram necessárias etapas como revisão da literatura, definição de parâmetros de trajetória e codificação. As etapas detalhadas do projeto são divididas em levantamento bibliográfico, proposta inicial (onde definimos a estrutura e a lógica do projeto), modelagem (que é feita a partir da proposta inicial), a construção onde foram integrados os sensores utilizados, depois foi feito testes para validação do projeto e verificação se está de acordo com a proposta, os ajustes finais, que é a etapa para encontrar bugs e resolve-los, e a implementação, onde foi feito um ambiente com um cenário para o manipulador fazer seu trabalho de desvio de obstáculos. Observou-se que os resultados obtidos nos trabalhos similares são bem satisfatórios, o que aumentou a possibilidade de sucesso do projeto.
