Authors: Rogoginsky Felipe Salathé
Published: June 2024

O presente artigo sugere a existência de um movimento de enfraquecimento da autonomia dos órgãos e entes integrantes da administração pública em razão do advento dos chamados novos governos autoritários. O autoritarismo é causa de concentração de poder nas mãos dos chefes do Executivo, desnutrindo não só instituições políticas, como o Congresso ou a Suprema Corte, mas também administrativas, como agências reguladoras, órgãos de controle, etc. A erosão democrática tem como um de seus elementos característicos a erosão do Estado Administrativo. Sob essa premissa, indaga-se: é possível que as instituições administrativas se oponham a essas investidas autoritárias, a preservar suas autonomias? Para tanto, são analisadas as estratégias usadas pelos novos governos autoritários para desnutrir o Estado Administrativo, bem como de contra-ataque a essas investidas. Ao final, são feitas propostas de uma hermenêutica voltada para garantir a proteção do Estado Administrativo tanto por instituições políticas quanto administrativas.

Published: June 2024

Systematic approaches to improving the use of antimicrobials across the spectrum of healthcare are referred to as antimicrobial stewardship. Most studies of antimicrobial stewardship program strategies have addressed the mandated use of antimicrobials, the cost of antimicrobials, and rates of antimicrobial resistance. However, many of these studies have been insufficiently powered to detect differences between groups in clinical cure rates, length of hospital stay, and mortality rates; often there was frequently been no difference between the antimicrobial stewardship group and the control groups (2).

While questioning the implementation of these strategies; each government regulates institutions to track and also report stewardship metrics. Instutions uses the data analysis programs include all antimicrobial sensitivity tests confirmed and completed in the laboratory(1). It should provide the ability to obtain test results along with the requirements listed below. Preferably, the system should be able to display the sample results even if antimicrobial testing of the detected microorganisms (if any) has not been performed (3).

Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate whether there is a relationship between glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and wound complications in diabetic women who have undergone hysterectomy for benign reasons.
Material and Methods: Our retrospective observational study included 153 patients with diabetes mellitus and 154 women without diabetes mellitus who underwent total abdominal (open) hysterectomy for benign reasons at the Gynecology Clinic of Health Sciences University Etlik Zübeyde Hanım Women’s Diseases Training and Research Hospital between January 2016 and November 2022. The HbA1c level and the preoperative fasting blood glucose level were evaluated in 2 groups as patients with and without wound complication. These values were compared with the significance of the results of complications at the wound site.
Results: The study included 307 patients who underwent hysterectomy. All patients underwent open hysterectomy and preoperative 2 g of cefazolin was administered intravenously prophylactically. When the presence of comorbidities (comorbidities other than diabetes mellitus) was analyzed to assess the general health of the patients, a significant difference was found between the groups (p<0.001). 42.2% of patients in the control group and 99.3% of patients in the study group had a diagnosis for a comorbid condition. The HbA1c level and fasting blood glucose level before surgery were not statistically significant in distinguishing wound complications (p=0.588 and p=0.967, respectively). The postoperative 1st day White blood cell (WBC) count was higher in the study group than the control (12611.38±3287.71 vs. 11075.18±3032.68, p 0.013).
Conclusion: In our study, no significant association was found between HbA1c levels and wound complications in patients undergoing hysterectomy for benign reasons. However, it was found that the postoperative 1st day WBC count had predictive value for the wound complication in this population.

Authors: Omar Salem Sharif , M. Alkadash Tamer
Published: June 2024

Organizations must have a competitive advantage to survive, which is dependent on human resource capital. However, the relationships between employee knowledge factors and competitive advantage have not been explored well. Therefore, this paper proposes a conceptual framework for the relationships between employee knowledge factors and organizational competitive advantage and a scale for measuring the concepts. The proposed model that integrates knowledge factors and organizational competitive advantage includes four employee knowledge factors: academic qualification, professional qualification, training and development, and Peer-Peer Knowledge Sharing. The methodology used is the documents’ analysis of the previous published articles to come out with the conceptual framework besides pilot testing to assess the scales' reliability.

This empirical quantitative study aimed to investigate the influence of employee integration, maintenance and motivation, and technology and AI adoption on employee retention in the UAE Abu Dhabi police force, and the moderation effects of technology and AI adoption on the relationships between employee integration and employee retention, and between maintenance and motivation and employee retention. The resource-based view theory was used to provide theoretical support for the proposed conceptual framework, which included four variables: employee integration, maintenance and motivation, technology and AI adoption, and employee retention. The data was collected using printed questionnaires from 371 employees, and analysed using structural equation modelling. The results showed that employee integration, maintenance and motivation, and technology and AI adoption were all significant predictors of employee retention in the UAE Abu Dhabi police force. The moderation effects of technology and AI adoption on the relationships between employee integration and employee retention, and between maintenance and motivation and employee retention were not significant. The study recommends that the UAE Abu Dhabi police force invest in employee integration, maintenance and motivation, and technology and AI adoption to improve employee retention. Further research is needed to investigate the relationship between technology and AI adoption and employee retention in more detail.

Published: June 2024

Background: Provider Initiated HIV Testing and Counseling (PITC) is a service offering HIV testing by health workers to all patients in health facilities1. The quality of PITC services that do not meet standards is still a problem, thus becoming an obstacle to PITC services. This causes PITC user satisfaction to be low. The aim of this research is to determine efforts to optimize health workers in the implementation of provider-initiated HIV testing and counseling (PITC). This systematic research was conducted using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) method to assess, review and synthesize research. Search through the database by entering the keywords "HIV", "HIV test", "Provider initiated HIV testing and counseling" "PITC", on PubMed, Science Direct, ProQuest. 9 research journals were selected after going through specified stages. Barriers for health workers are high workload, lack of human resources and not all health workers are trained in PITC. Optimizing PITC services in health care settings cannot stand alone, health services that are integrated with other health services require the ability of health workers to be able to offer HIV tests to patients. Optimizing human resources in the health sector can be done by increasing the ability of health workers to carry out PITC through good education and training. The complete implementation of PITC starting from the pretest and posttest will emphasize changes in patient behavior to improve their health status.

Published: June 2024

Dentre as principais preocupações de familiares e professores de crianças que ingressam na escola, a alfabetização se destaca, e seu processo de aprendizagem pressupõe o envolvimento com uma língua. De modo geral, a aquisição linguística não costuma representar uma preocupação como representam as habilidades de leitura e escrita de crianças. Quando percebida, a surdez passa a ser compreendida como uma deficiência impeditiva e não como uma experiência que possibilita uma forma de comunicação diferente, levando a implicações na aquisição linguística e suas consequências. Assim, os responsáveis pela criança surda costumam se ocupar da alfabetização da criança, ignorando que, para alfabetizar, é necessário haver uma língua minimamente estabelecida. Partindo dos pressupostos teóricos da translinguagem e utilizando o conceito de língua de acolhimento, este artigo objetiva discutir possíveis formas de atender às questões linguísticas de crianças surdas considerando as condições educacionais brasileiras. Desse modo, realiza-se um breve mapeamento das políticas públicas focadas na educação de surdos vigentes no Brasil para pensar um ambiente escolar capaz de acolher a diversidade linguística de sinalizantes e de promover seu desenvolvimento respeitando suas condições. A partir da discussão desenvolvida, mostra-se conveniente o incentivo de ambientes educacionais bilíngues bimodais, que não se limitem apenas ao público surdo, mas que acolham outros perfis de diversidade linguística.

Há muito tempo, as crianças ouvintes se beneficiam do envolvimento com materiais de alfabetização, embora esse não seja o caso das crianças surdas e das línguas de sinais. A alfabetização em língua de sinais ainda está em sua infância, mesmo nos países que têm um currículo oficial de língua de sinais. Além disso, os materiais de alfabetização em língua de sinais são escassos. Com o objetivo de preencher essa lacuna, o projeto Libras em primeiro (2022 - 2024), financiado pela FAPERGS (Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul), no Programa de Pós-graduação em Letras, da Universidade de Santa Cruz do Sul, RS-Brasil, desenvolveu material didático híbrido de língua de sinais para crianças surdas da educação infantil e do primeiro ano do ensino fundamental. Em particular, o material é uma série de livros imagem sinalizados, que integra gráficos visuais e vídeos para apoiar a alfabetização precoce de crianças surdas na língua de sinais e a prática do professor. O artigo descreve os fundamentos teóricos desse desenvolvimento, principalmente com base na Estrutura de Sistemas de Leitura e suas conexões com os mecanismos cognitivos de processamento e reconhecimento da língua de sinais

As definições de alfabetização tradicionalmente se referem à leitura e à escrita, embora, hoje (2024), o termo englobe muito mais, como as habilidades de se envolver com a linguagem, construir e comunicar significados em todos os aspectos da vida cotidiana. De acordo com essa definição, o termo não se limita apenas às habilidades das línguas faladas (ler, escrever, falar e ouvir), mas também às habilidades das línguas de sinais das pessoas surdas. Em consonância com isso, e devido ao fato de que hoje os currículos de língua de sinais começam a aparecer na educação de surdos em todo o mundo, este volume teve como objetivo reunir acadêmicos de quatro países - Brasil, Canadá, Grécia e Itália - com o objetivo de contribuir com suas pesquisas sobre a alfabetização de surdos e com um foco especial na alfabetização em língua de sinais

In the present investigation, three plant shelters were installed to identify their entomofauna and determine the plant species with the potential to host biological controllers of grapevine pests. The study was carried out in the 2020-21 growing season, with seven plant species to make up three plant shelters (A, B, and C) that were installed on the edges of a vineyard of the Crimson Seedless variety in Ica, Peru. In total, 1,209 insects were reported, in six orders, nine families, and sixteen species; the most abundant were pollinators, followed by phytophagous, predators, and some parasitoids. There were no statistical differences between the shelters in terms of the abundance of parasitoids and pollinators, but there were in predators and phytophagous specifically between shelters A and B with C. Shelters A and B, which included the fennel Foeniculum vulgare Mill., stood out for having a larger population of predators, including Chrysoperla externa (Hagen), the main controller of the “vine mealybug” (Planococcus spp.). The importance of plant shelters was demonstrated and their implementation in vineyards is recommended to promote biological control and contribute to integrated pest management in this crop.

Published: June 2024

Drug resistance poses a challenge to antimicrobial treatment options necessitating the continuous search of plant extracts with therapeutic potentials. The study determines the antimicrobial activities and toxicity effect of local and foreign seeds of Azanza garckeana. Constituents of the seeds of A. garckeana were extracted and identified using standard phytochemical procedures. Clinical isolates from patients diagnosed with Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) were confirmed using standard microbiological procedures. Disk diffusion techniques were used to assess the antimicrobial properties of the plant extract, and Mass Spectrometry and Gas Chromatography were used to identify the bioactive components. Toxicity of plant extract was assessed using acute toxicity test, histopathological and hematological studies. The findings indicated the existence of alkaloids, carbohydrates, saponins, tannins and flavonoids in both local and foreign seeds of A. garckeana. Five (5) organisms were identified from patient with UTIs. Antimicrobial activities showed that the Petroleum ether extract of foreign A. garckeana exhibited higher antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (15mm), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (13mm) than Petroleum ether extract of local A. garckeana at a concentration of 200µg/ml respectively. Similarly, A. garckeana foreign aqueous extracts showed higher activity against S. aureus (13mm), and P. aeruginosa (12mm) than local Aqueous A. garckeana at a concentration of 200µg/ml respectively. The GCMS analysis showed the existence of Dodecanoic acid, ethyl ester, Octadecenoic acid, Undecanoic acid and methyl ether. Both the local and foreign seeds of A. garckeana were found to be non-toxic at ≤ 600 mg/kg. Histopathological and hematological studies showed heart with normal features, kidney with slight hyperplasia of inflammatory cells and liver with slight hepatic necrosis at 1000 mg/kg. The study demonstrated that the local and foreign seeds of Azanza garckeana had antimicrobial therapeutic potential but its usage should be dose dependent not exceeding ≤ 600 mg/kg.

Water is one of the most important and abundant compounds on earth, and it is vital to the survival of all life forms.  Groundwater is the most utilized in the southern part of Nigeria.  Many groundwater extraction boreholes exist in Rumuigbo, Obio-Akpor Local Government Area of Rivers State, Nigeria.  This study was carried out to assess the physicochemical and bacteriological characteristics of groundwater in the communities within Rumuigbo. Water samples were collected from groundwater extraction boreholes in the four communities within Rumuigbo: Omoi/Orosi, Nkpolu, Mgbuadu, and Mgbu-Esilaru.  The samples were analyzed for Electrical conductivity (EC), salinity, pH, turbidity, nitrate, phosphate, iron, lead, zinc, total heterotrophic bacterial population (THBP), Vibrio, Shigella, and Salmonella populations using standard physicochemical and bacteriological methods.  The results showed that EC of the groundwater in the four communities was 3.74±0.38 to 17.08±1.03 μS/cm; salinity was 1.02±0.01 to 1.66±0.54 mg/L; pH was 5.94±0.01 to 6.95±0.23; turbidity was 0.04±0.01 to 0.05±0.02 NTU; nitrate was 0.46±0.06 to 0.71±0.02 mg/L; phosphate was 2.85±0.03 to 3.34±0.15 mg/L; iron was 2.34±0.55 to 6.74±0.08 mg/L; lead was 0.18±0.04 to 0.40±0.14 mg/L; and zinc was 0.40±0.06 to 3.91±0.13 mg/L; THBP was 1.8±2.6 to 3.4±3.2 ×102 CFU/ml.  There were no Vibrio and Shigella in the groundwater samples, except in one sampling point in the Mgbu-Esilaru and Mgbu-adu communities, respectively.  The bacteria identified include Proteus, Bacillus, Micrococcus, Pseudomonas, Salmonella, Erythrobacter, and Klebsiella species.  It is revealed that groundwater from the communities fulfills some of the requirements for portable drinking water but does not meet the standards for iron, lead, zinc, and Salmonella.  Some form of groundwater treatment from the communities is required to meet all the requirements for potable drinking water.

Realizing the detrimental effect of synthetic pesticides on the environment, non-target organisms and human health.  The scientific community's interest in searching for and providing safe, natural and effective pesticides  Using the residual contact approach, the essential oils of Thymus vulgaris L. and Syzygium aromaticum L. (TEO and EOSA) were assessed against Dermestes maculatus in a laboratory setting.  Steam distillation was used to extract the oils.  Four concentrations (2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10%) were prepared using acetone as a solvent and applied individually to 15 g of smoke-dried C. gariepinus.  For five days, newly emerged adults, third-instar larvae, and newly laid pest eggs were exposed to the treated fish samples.  The results showed that both oils had varying larvicidal and adulticidal activities against D. maculatus.  Similarly, the EOs significantly decreased the pest's ability to lay eggs and hatch.  EOSA was the most effective treatment in all cases; it had the lowest LC50 and LT50 and the most effects at all dosages.  Consequently, EOSA and TEO could manage D. maculatus infesting smoke-dried C. gariepinus.
