Authors: Solak Abdulkadir , Cengiz Salih , Ünal Alptuğ , Kamanlı Mehmet
Published: November 2024

When torsional cracks occur in the RC element as a result of torsion effects occurring in the structure, the cross-section stiffness decreases by 1/10-1/30 of the stiffness before cracking. When the design codes are examined, it is seen that the reinforced concrete design under the effect of torsion is not sufficiently emphasized. In the study, it is aimed to determine the cross-sectional properties of reinforced concrete elements that will be exposed to torsion effects in accordance with the behavior of the RC element.
In this study, reinforced concrete elements with circular, square and rectangular cross-section shapes were modeled in accordance with the cross-section and reinforcement conditions specified in TEC-2007 and analyzed by ANSYS program. The torsional capacities of the elements increase as the cross-sectional area increases. Circular sections exhibit a highly ductile behavior in terms of rotation. Rectangular sections have more stiffness than circular and square sections to torsion.

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with significant maternal and fetal complications, including preterm delivery, macrosomia, and neonatal hypoglycemia. Elevated serum ferritin levels, a marker of inflammation and oxidative stress, may exacerbate these risks. This study was aims to determine if serum ferritin elevation is a marker of adverse maternal and fetal outcome in pregnancies complicated by GDM. Method: A case control study was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka from September 2020 to August 2021. 42 pregnant women at 2nd 3rd trimester attended for antenatal care diagnosed as GDM was selected as cases and 42 non-diabetic pregnant women matching with cases by age and gestational age was selected as control are included this study. GDM was diagnosed by oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). The serum ferritin level of these patients was measured. Results: Elevated serum ferritin was significantly associated with GDM (p<0.05). GDM women had higher rates of obesity (p=0.005), preterm delivery (30.9% vs. 16.6%) and term delivery was less in case group (69.05%) than controls (83.33%) . In neonates of GDM mothers macrosomia rates were 26.19% in case group and 14.3% in control group. Hypoglycemia was 16.6%, respiratory distress 11.9% and NICU admissions 21.4% (p<0.05 vs controls). Conclusion: Elevated serum ferritin is a strong predictor of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes in GDM pregnancies. These findings suggest that ferritin could serve as a biomarker for identifying high-risk pregnancies.

The rising demand for sustainable and biocompatible materials in biomedical applications has led to significant interest in green-synthesized nanoparticles. This review explores the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using Prunus dulcis (almond gum) as a natural capping and stabilizing agent, with a focus on their potential to enhance in vivo wound healing. Almond gum, a natural biopolymer, offers numerous benefits, including biodegradability, water solubility, and bioactivity, which improve the stability and biocompatibility of AgNPs while reducing environmental impact. The unique properties of almond gum-capped AgNPs, such as enhanced antimicrobial efficacy, anti-inflammatory effects, and antioxidant activity, make them particularly advantageous for wound healing applications. We analyze the mechanisms through which AgNPs promote wound repair, including bacterial inhibition, collagen synthesis, and angiogenesis, while mitigating oxidative stress and inflammation. Furthermore, in vivo studies demonstrate accelerated wound closure, reduced infection, and minimized inflammation, underscoring the clinical potential of these biogenic nanoparticles. This review also addresses current challenges, such as production scalability, nanoparticle consistency, and the need for comprehensive toxicity studies to optimize AgNPs for medical use. The findings indicate that almond gum-capped AgNPs represent a promising, eco-friendly alternative for wound care, contributing to advances in regenerative medicine through sustainable nanotechnology.

Introdução: Às abordagens minimamente invasivas (AMIs) na cirurgia plástica facial têm ganhado destaque nas últimas décadas, impulsionadas pela demanda crescente por procedimentos que ofereçam resultados estéticos satisfatórios com menor trauma cirúrgico. Essas técnicas visam não apenas a melhoria estética, mas também a redução das complicações associadas e o tempo de recuperação, aspectos cruciais para a satisfação do paciente. Objetivos: O principal objetivo deste artigo é revisar as técnicas minimamente invasivas utilizadas na cirurgia plástica facial, avaliando suas eficácias, riscos e benefícios em comparação com as técnicas cirúrgicas convencionais. Além disso, busca-se identificar lacunas na literatura e sugerir direções futuras para pesquisas nesse campo. Metodologia: Foi realizada uma revisão sistemática da literatura utilizando bases de dados como BVS, Medline, PubMed, LILACS e Google Scholar. Os critérios de inclusão abrangeram estudos que abordassem técnicas minimamente invasivas na cirurgia plástica facial, publicações nos últimos dez anos e que apresentassem dados sobre eficácia, segurança e satisfação do paciente. A análise dos dados foi realizada de forma qualitativa, com foco nas comparações entre as AMIs e as abordagens tradicionais. Resultados: Os resultados da revisão indicam que as AMIs, como a aplicação de toxina botulínica, preenchimentos faciais e técnicas de lifting com fios, demonstram eficácia significativa em termos de resultados estéticos e satisfação do paciente. Estudos mostram que essas técnicas resultam em menos dor, menor tempo de recuperação e cicatrizes menos visíveis em comparação com as cirurgias tradicionais. No entanto, também foram identificados riscos associados, como complicações locais e insatisfação do paciente, especialmente quando as expectativas não são geridas adequadamente. Conclusão: As abordagens minimamente invasivas na cirurgia plástica facial representam um avanço significativo na prática cirúrgica, proporcionando benefícios substanciais em termos de recuperação e resultados estéticos. Contudo, é fundamental que os profissionais de saúde realizem uma avaliação cuidadosa dos pacientes e gerenciem suas expectativas para minimizar riscos e insatisfações. A continuidade da pesquisa e a formação adequada dos cirurgiões são essenciais para a evolução e a segurança dessas técnicas.

Este texto abrangente oferece uma análise aprofundada das dimensões históricas, sociais e científicas dos programas de vacinação no Brasil, com ênfase na imunização infantil. O percurso traçado inicia-se no século XIX, período marcado pela urbanização acelerada e pela necessidade de controlar doenças infecciosas, o que impulsionou a implementação das primeiras práticas de vacinação no país. Nesse contexto, destaca-se o papel central do Programa Nacional de Imunizações (PNI), que consolidou a oferta gratuita e obrigatória de vacinas por meio do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS), fomentando uma cultura sólida de imunização em todo o território nacional. O estudo ressalta o papel essencial desempenhado pelos profissionais de saúde, especialmente os enfermeiros, que orientam e educam as famílias sobre a importância da vacinação, garantindo a administração correta e pontual das vacinas. Também são abordados os mecanismos imunológicos subjacentes ao desenvolvimento de vacinas, explicando como componentes antigênicos ou patógenos enfraquecidos estimulam o sistema imunológico, conferindo proteção contra infecções futuras. Por fim, o artigo reafirma que a vacinação continua sendo um pilar fundamental da saúde pública, com papel central na prevenção e no controle de doenças infecciosas. O compromisso contínuo do Brasil com a imunização, por meio do PNI, não só protege a saúde coletiva, mas também fortalece o sistema de saúde. Ao combater a desinformação, promover a educação em saúde e aprimorar a cobertura vacinal, o país poderá continuar a trilhar um caminho de sucesso na promoção da saúde e no bem-estar da população.

A disciplina Ciência, Extensão e Transformação da Saúde na Comunidade( CETESC) busca desenvolver a capacidade dos acadêmicos de medicina para atuar como agentes transformadores, permitindo que construam projetos de extensão que integrem os discentes ao âmbito social. Assim, através de metodologias ativas, como a Aprendizagem Baseada em Problemas (PBL), os acadêmicos de saúde desempenham um papel protagonista, desenvolvendo habilidades práticas ao mesclar teoria e prática, aplicando conceitos e realizando condutas integradas. A partir disso , o projeto de extensão “Escolhas inteligentes: O jogo da vida saudável, prevenindo ISTs e gravidez na adolescência’’ foi realizado no Complexo Escolar Rene Bayma, na cidade de Codó-Maranhão. A escolha do temática veio por meio de debates entre os estudantes de medicina, que avaliaram o quanto a gravidez precoce e os elevados índices de IST’s têm se tornado um caso grave de saúde pública. Assim, notaram que a desinformação sobre sexualidade nos ciclos sociais acarretam em sérios problemas e riscos aos adolescentes que vão para além da gravidez não planejada. Logo, temas como a evasão escolar, a rejeição familiar, o preconceito social, o aborto em condições inseguras, a mortalidade materna e nascimento prematuro estão entre as consequências dos problemas supracitados e abordados pelos acadêmicos, que levaram em considerando essa região de alta vulnerabilidade social. Por isso o complexo escolar foi priorizado, com o objetivo de orientar e conscientizar os adolescentes levando informações sobre saúde sexual e consequências de uma gestação precoce a uma população mais vulnerável psicossocialmente. Dessa maneira, a experiência em campo trouxe desafios e aprendizados além da teoria, como lidar com diversas realidades sociais e culturais. Ademais, este trabalho demonstrou que, ao empregar métodos interativos e participativos, os estudantes puderam ampliar sua formação técnica e habilidades interpessoais, preparando-se para intervenções futuras que promovam saúde e desenvolvimento social nas comunidades em que atuarão.

The purpose of the paper is to clarify how instructors' perceptions are affected by whole quality management. One of the most crucial issues in education is quality. Everyone is familiar with the term "quality," which can signify many different things. As a successful management philosophy for organisational excellence and continuous development, TQM is attracting the genuine interest of educators, policymakers, academics, and researchers. The message of Total Quality Management (TQM) in education is that every kid is valuable and deserves the finest opportunity in life. TQM, then, is the art of managing everything to attain perfection. As a methodology, Total Quality Management (TQM) signifies a long-term change in an organization's emphasis from immediate efficiency to long-term quality enhancement. TQM has been used in the education sector for the past few years, primarily in the administrative aspects of the institutions. However, some schools are now incorporating TQM into their curriculum development. Through planning, observing, guaranteeing, and enhancing quality, quality management in education is essential to reaching quality objectives. An effective TQM system can help an organisation achieve its goals and fulfil its role in the education of the next generation while also facilitating global market progress. Additionally, it is improving the overall quality of labour and management in educational institutions.
