Authors: Souza Jakeline Andrea de Melo , Rocha Hugo André da , Santos Marcos Antônio da Cunha , Cherchiglia Mariangela Leal
Published: March 2022

Resumo O objetivo foi verificar a associação entre fatores individuais e organizativos do sistema de saúde com o tempo para o início do tratamento do câncer de pulmão pelo Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) em Minas Gerais. Estudo de coorte retrospectiva com pacientes que iniciaram o tratamento para o câncer de pulmão pelo SUS de 2008 a 2015. Foram selecionadas variáveis sociodemográficas, clínicas e organizativas do sistema de saúde. O modelo de regressão logística avaliou a associação do desfecho do início do tratamento em até 60 dias após o diagnóstico com as variáveis explicativas selecionadas. Utilizou-se a odds ratio (OR) e o respectivo intervalo de confiança (95%) para mensurar a força de associação. A maioria dos tratamentos para o câncer de pulmão em Minas Gerais foram iniciados em até 60 dias após o diagnóstico, entretanto, ser do sexo masculino e diagnosticado em estadiamento IV aumentaram a chance de iniciar o tratamento em até 60 dias; todavia o aumento da idade, iniciar o tratamento por radioterapia, e o local de residência, diminuíram. O tempo para início do tratamento está associado a características individuais e à provisão de serviços nas macrorregiões, e as desigualdades observadas possivelmente se originam a partir do melhor ou pior acesso da população aos serviços prestados.

Authors: Peixoto Mônica Monteiro , Serpa Junior Octavio Domont de
Published: March 2022

Resumo Sendo a narrativa fundamental para a construção da experiência de adoecimento, apresentamos uma pesquisa que utilizou o método fotovoz, que articula fotografia e narrativa, concentrando-se nos relatos sobre discriminação, moradia e convivência no território de nove pessoas com a experiência vivida de sofrimento psíquico grave que atuaram como copesquisadores. Realizamos oito ciclos temáticos, que se traduziram em 63 entrevistas semiestruturadas, 20 encontros de grupo e um grupo avaliativo. Cada ciclo cumpriu as seguintes etapas: escolha do tema; realização da foto; entrevistas semiestruturadas individuais; e encontros de grupo, produzindo narrativas individuais e coletivas sobre as imagens. O material foi validado junto aos integrantes e exibido em uma exposição, uma ação cultural de combate ao estigma. Pensando que o comportamento discriminatório pode trazer um prejuízo maior do que a condição de saúde em si, objetivamos apresentar os desafios enfrentados pelos participantes na busca por uma vida significativa e produtiva na comunidade. Conclui-se que a atuação no território e a dimensão participativa deste trabalho, esse fazer e pensar junto com o usuário, devem ser compreendidas como uma espécie de ética norteadora da atenção psicossocial.

Emotional Development of Gifted Students: Comparative Study About Overexcitabilities
Authors: Sousa Rhaissa Andrêssa Ramos de , Fleith Denise de Souza
Published: March 2022

Abstract The aim of this study was to compare gifted, with academic and artistic talent, and non-gifted students regarding overexcitability, as well as to investigate the perceptions of teachers from a specialized educational program for the gifted about their students’ emotional development. The study included 150 students and six teachers. As instruments, we used participants characterization questionnaires, an overexcitability scale and a semi-structured interview script. Data were analyzed using inferential statistics and content analysis. The results indicated significant differences between gifted and non-gifted students in the patterns of intellectual and imaginative over-excitability, as well as a tendency for teachers to emotionally characterize gifted students with an emphasis on psychological disorders and weaknesses. To invest in educational strategies that use information derived from overexcitability patterns as facilitating tools for the learning process of the gifted can contribute to increasing student engagement at school, keeping them motivated.

Abstract Germin-like proteins (GLPs) play an important role against various stresses. Vitis vinifera L. genome contains 7 GLPs; many of them are functionally unexplored. However, the computational analysis may provide important new insight into their function. Currently, physicochemical properties, subcellular localization, domain architectures, 3D structures, N-glycosylation & phosphorylation sites, and phylogeney of the VvGLPs were investigated using the latest computational tools. Their functions were predicted using the Search tool for the retrieval of interacting genes/proteins (STRING) and Blast2Go servers. Most of the VvGLPs were extracellular (43%) in nature but also showed periplasmic (29%), plasma membrane (14%), and mitochondrial- or chloroplast-specific (14%) expression. The functional analysis predicted unique enzymatic activities for these proteins including terpene synthase, isoprenoid synthase, lipoxygenase, phosphate permease, receptor kinase, and hydrolases generally mediated by Mn+ cation. VvGLPs showed similarity in the overall structure, shape, and position of the cupin domain. Functionally, VvGLPs control and regulate the production of secondary metabolites to cope with various stresses. Phylogenetically VvGLP1, -3, -4, -5, and VvGLP7 showed greater similarity due to duplication while VvGLP2 and VvGLP6 revealed a distant relationship. Promoter analysis revealed the presence of diverse cis-regulatory elements among which CAAT box, MYB, MYC, unnamed-4 were common to all of them. The analysis will help to utilize VvGLPs and their promoters in future food programs by developing resistant cultivars against various biotic (Erysiphe necator and in Powdery Mildew etc.) and abiotic (Salt, drought, heat, dehydration, etc.) stresses.
Administração e indígenas no Brasil: conhecimento e interesse na pesquisa stricto sensu
Authors: Cunha Eduardo Vivian da , Sousa Washington Jose de
Published: March 2022

Resumo Apesar de relevante nos contextos histórico e atual, temas indígenas detêm limitada atenção no domínio da ciência administrativa no Brasil, fato que motivou a análise aqui sintetizada. A abordagem é de natureza epistemológica, sob a forma de sistematização de esforços intelectuais e produção do conhecimento na pesquisa acadêmica. Desse modo, o artigo objetiva delimitar categorias analíticas da pesquisa em temáticas indígenas, tomando como base interesse e conhecimento derivados da produção em nível de pós-graduação stricto sensu no Brasil, no domínio da ciência administrativa. Trata-se de revisão bibliográfica integrativa, ancorada em análise léxica com auxílio do software Iramuteq. O processamento das informações gerou quatro classes: “universidade e acesso de minorias ao ensino superior”, “terra e conflitos”, “organizações, gestão e sustentabilidade” e “organização sociopolítica indígena, Estado e políticas públicas”. As classes reúnem bases teóricas e empíricas, procedimentos de pesquisa, lócus e foco, com perfis não gerencialistas e abordagens sociológicas híbridas que se harmonizaram em interesses prático, técnico e emancipatórios à luz de Conhecimento e interesse, de Habermas, e de Círculo das matrizes epistêmicas, de Paes de Paula. Elas revelam diversidade nas escolhas epistemológicas da pesquisa em administração, em temas indígenas, com vieses hermenêutico, empírico-analítico e crítico.

Authors: Santos Fabiana Pimentel , Davel Eduardo
Published: March 2022

Resumo Cada vez mais, as pesquisas sobre a gestão de organizações culturais se destacam, à medida que reconhecemos as contribuições simbólicas e materiais da economia criativa para o desenvolvimento das sociedades contemporâneas. Contudo, carecemos de uma visão integrada e robusta dessa gestão, baseada numa caracterização clara do campo e de suas singularidades. O objetivo deste artigo é descrever a produção acadêmica sobre gestão de organizações culturais e demarcar um horizonte conceitual-teórico fecundo para estimular a pesquisa futura. A metodologia é baseada numa revisão sistemática de produções acadêmicas publicadas nas bases de dados nacionais e internacionais. Os resultados da pesquisa incluem a elaboração de três categorias integradoras da produção acadêmica: perspectivas sobre questões centrais na pesquisa sobre organizações culturais (técnico-operacional e política), as singularidades dessas organizações (hipersensibilidade, hipertensão e hiperincerteza) e o paradoxo como um eixo teórico-conceitual crucial para melhorar o conhecimento sobre as organizações culturais. Os resultados propõem uma agenda para pesquisas futuras com base no conceito de paradoxo.

RESUMO O objetivo deste artigo é analisar os efeitos da drenagem linfática manual sobre os sintomas de sensação de peso, dor, edema e formigamento nos membros inferiores de gestantes, assim como na redução da perimetria. A amostra foi composta por 23 voluntárias, e foram realizados 35 atendimentos. Foram incluídas gestantes com idade gestacional acima de 26 semanas, que apresentavam sensação de peso, dor, edema e formigamento nos membros inferiores, com autorização escrita do médico obstetra para que fossem submetidas a drenagem linfática manual utilizando o método Leduc. Foram excluídas gestantes que apresentaram pressão arterial superior a 140/100mmHg no momento da realização da drenagem linfática manual, lesão de continuidade da epiderme, doenças dermatológicas, linfáticas e cardíacas, infecções e varizes volumosas e/ou sintomáticas. As avaliações foram realizadas imediatamente após a aplicação da drenagem linfática manual e duas horas depois, por meio de questionário estruturado pelas pesquisadoras. Diferenças estatisticamente significativas foram encontradas antes, imediatamente após e após duas horas da intervenção no que se refere à melhora da dor (p=0,001*), do formigamento (p=0,01*), da sensação de peso (p=0,000*) e do inchaço (p=0,000*). Em relação à perimetria antes e após o tratamento, houve diminuição na maioria das mensurações realizadas. A técnica de drenagem linfática manual tem papel fundamental na melhora da qualidade de vida da gestante devido ao relaxamento e bem-estar proporcionado, componentes considerados essenciais para redução da ansiedade e com benefícios que podem perdurar até o parto.

Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT Maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressures (MIP and MEP) assess the strength index of the respiratory muscles. These measures are relevant to assess respiratory muscle strength and for clinical monitoring. This study evaluates papers that suggest predictive equations of MIP and MEP for the Brazilian population. We included studies that established prediction equations for MIP and MEP for the healthy Brazilian population, aged from 4 to 90 years old, both men and women and that had the maximum respiratory pressures measured in a sitting position. A search was carried out in March 2020 on MEDLINE, LILACS, Cochrane, SciELO, CINAHL, Web of Science, and SCOPUS databases, without date or language filters. The descriptors used were “muscle strength,” “equations,” “predictive respiratory muscles” and their respective synonyms. Out of the 3,920 studies found in databases, 963 were duplicates, 2,779 were excluded, 178 had their full texts analyzed, and only 9 met the inclusion criteria. The predictive equations of ventilatory muscle strength analyzed in this review used age, weight, and stature as variables. However, the studies showed methodological weaknesses, such as lack of cross-validation of the equation, exclusion of outliers, and lack of familiarization of MIP and MEP.

Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT This study aims to validate the Brazilian version of World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS 2.0) for individuals with temporomandibular disorders (TMD), assessing its psychometric properties, including internal consistency, construct validity, and discriminant validity. In total, 100 female and male patients with TMD were included. Participants were assessed based on the Research Diagnostic Criteria for TMD (RDC/TMD). For statistical analyses, McDonald’s omega coefficient was used to assess internal consistency; Spearman correlation, for construct validity; Kruskal-Wallis test and multiple comparisons (Dunn method), for discriminant validity. The results of internal consistency for the WHODAS 2.0 domains ranged from 0.70 to 0.94. The WHODAS 2.0 showed a moderate and significant correlation with the disability points of the RDC/TMD and with the WHOQOL-BREF domains. In the discriminant validity, significant differences were found in all domains of WHODAS 2.0 between grade 0 and grade III, between grade I and grade III, and between grade II and grade III from the chronic pain grading of the RDC/TMD. The results demonstrate that the instrument is reliable and valid for measuring the functioning of individuals with TMD, presenting acceptable psychometric properties for internal consistency, as well as for construct validity and discriminant validity.

Published: March 2022

Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the forage availability and performance of goats in thinned Caatinga enriched with Urochloa trichopus subjected to grazing fallowing and levels of phosphorus fertilization. Twenty-four F1 crossbred goats (Boer x Non-descript breed), whole, 15.0 ± 2.6 kg body weight were distributed in four paddocks (n = 6) according to body weight, age and physiological status. Animals grazed on Caatinga, under continuous stocking, and were gathered and kept in individual pens overnight. The experiment to evaluate animal performance was a randomized block design with 4 treatments (0, 11, 33 and 60 days of fallowing) and six replications. To determine dry mass production and floristic composition, phosphate fertilization was used in the doses of x P2O5 in a randomized block design with five treatments, 0, 30, 60, 90 and 120 kg P2O5 with 4 replications. Phosphate fertilization had an effect on the floristic composition of dicots and U. trichopus (P<0.05). There was an effect of pasture fallowing on the final weight of goats, with the lowest weight (20.40 kg) observed after 60 days of fallowing (P<0.05). Fallowing is not suitable for an area of vegetation in the caatinga, because there was a decrease in forage availability and quality in the dry period, resulting in a lower performance of animals.
Processo de trabalho da Estratégia Saúde da Família na pandemia no Recife-PE: singularidades socioespaciais

Published: March 2022

Resumo Os múltiplos impactos da Covid-19 nos territórios de vinculação das equipes da Estratégia Saúde da Família requerem reorganizar o processo de trabalho. Neste estudo, propõe-se analisar as recomendações da Secretaria de Saúde da cidade do Recife (Pernambuco) direcionadas às mudanças no processo de trabalho da Estratégia durante a pandemia de Covid-19, relacionando-as com as singularidades socioespaciais dos territórios de vinculação das equipes. Trata-se de estudo de caso desenvolvido mediante pesquisa documental (N=14). Os resultados indicam que os componentes do processo de trabalho (objeto, instrumentos, ações e finalidades) estão centralizados na doença, pressupondo um trabalho com abordagem individual e clínica. As ações coletivas de promoção e vigilância são direcionadas quase que exclusivamente ao agente comunitário de saúde. Em geral, as recomendações não consideram a magnitude das necessidades de saúde decorrentes das repercussões da Covid-19 e contemplam de forma incipiente as singularidades socioespaciais dos territórios. No entanto, os resultados obtidos retratam apenas a perspectiva das recomendações, evidenciando a necessidade de se checar a operacionalização, na busca de compreender a direcionalidade e a amplitude do processo de trabalho reorganizado em virtude da pandemia de Covid-19 e sua relação com as singularidades socioespaciais.

Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT Quesnelia quesneliana is an endemic species from Brazil with restricted distribution in restinga areas and has been suffering from changes in its habitat. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of light on the morpho-anatomy and pigment content of Q. quesneliana. The samples were collected in the Liberdade neighborhood in São Mateus, Espírito Santo State, Brazil, which is impacted by anthropization. The influence of light was tested comparing individuals completely exposed to it and individuals under shade. For a morphobiometric analysis, 150 individuals were measured for each light condition, and for pigment determination, 10 leaves were used for each light condition. For anatomical analysis, samples were fixed in 50% FAA and transferred to 70 % ethanol solution after 48 hours. Cross sections were made on roots and stems, and transverse and paradermal sections on leaves. It was concluded that individuals exposed to light are smaller, with higher carotenoid content, while shaded individuals are larger, with more succulent and darker leaves due to greater accumulation of chlorophyll. Anatomically, the individual’s structure is similar.

Screening for depression in myasthenia gravis
Authors: Elsheikh Bakri , Moneme Obinna , Freimer Miriam , Kissel John , Arnold W. David
Published: March 2022

Introduction: There are conflicting reports of depression prevalence in myasthenia gravis (MG). The influence of somatic symptoms on screening assessments is not apparent. We investigated the frequency of somatic and non-somatic symptoms of depression in MG. We also explored the relationship between depression and MG using disease severity and quality of life measures. Methods: Three cohorts of participants (MG, healthy and disease controls) were prospectively assessed with the Beck Depression Inventory 2 (BDI-II) and BDI-Primary Care (BDI-PC) surveys, modified Rankin Scale, MGFA classification, MG-MMT, MG-ADL and MG-QOL15. Results: A total of 31 MG, 29 disease controls, and 30 healthy controls were enrolled. Depression frequency indicated by BDI-II in MG 48% (15/31) and disease control 31% (9/29) was not significantly different [p=0.17]. However, we found a significantly higher frequency than healthy controls 10% (3/30) [p=0.001]. In contrast, depression frequency indicated by BDI-PC was similar in the MG 29% (9/31) and disease controls MG, 24% (7/29)[p=0.77] as well as the healthy controls 10% (3/30) [p=0.08].

Using the BDI-II scale, participants with MG who were depressed had higher scores on MG-MMT, MG-ADL, and MG-QOL15 than those who were not depressed. The difference in MG-ADL and MG-QOL15 scores remained significant using the BDI-PC score. Discussion: These findings suggest depression screening assessments that include physical symptoms overestimate depression in MG and chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disorders. A higher frequency of self-reported depression is associated with increasing disease severity and low quality of life.

The analysis of the approbation results of the methodology and assessment materials showed that the developed methodology is applicable to identify professional deficits of teachers and students of teacher-training institutions for further construction of individual educational trajectories of the approbation participants.
Child-Adult Interaction: Orientation of Children's Initiative
Authors: Shur S.E. , Zuckerman G.A.
Published: March 2022

The purpose of our work was to establish diagnostic criteria for assessing how the child interprets the proposed form of interaction in a situation where an adult sets an intellectual task and offers help. In this case study, we described two productive children’s strategies for redefining the situation of interaction. Some children prefer to act independently of their partner putting forward and testing their own assumptions about the way to solve the task, whereas others consider the offer for help as an effective way to find out through questioning the missing conditions of action. Nevertheless, our diagnostics showed that in today’s school, the proactive actions of children (targeted primarily at the content of the task and / or at the partner) are registered in less than a half of the 3—4 graders. We believe that one of the goals of activity-based education is to expand the proactive repertoire of each student in a situation of an intellectual task and to alleviate the tendency to discard his own initiative by lingering instead on ready-made answers and instructions by the adult and by yielding at the first failure. This goal will be met more successfully when the teacher takes into account that the children who come to school have already developed their favored attitudes for interaction when an adult sets a new task.
Students’ Mindset and Subjective Well-being during the Period of “Emerging Adulthood”
Authors: Khachaturova M.R. , Yerofeyeva V.G. , Bardadymov V.A.
Published: March 2022

In the current paper the interrelation between students' mindset and subjective well-being during the period of “emerging adulthood” is investigated. The relevance of the research is determined by high intellectual and psycho-emotional loads to the referent group, especially in the context of distance learning, which threatens the students' well-being. A sample of the study includes college students, bachelors, masters, and postgraduates. We assumed that a growth in mindset is correlated with a high level of students' well-being. We also tested the hypothesis about age differences in the level of students' well-being in the period of emerging adulthood. The sample consisted of 317 respondents aged from 16 to 30 years (M=22.6, SD=4.97), 232 are female and 85 are male. We used “The Satisfaction with Life Scale”, “The Personal Well-being Index-Adult”, “The Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale”, and “The Mindset Questionnaire”. The results of the study demonstrate significant correlations between mindset and all types of well-being. At the same time, the lowest indicators of the well-being are in the bachelors' group, and the highest are in the college students' group. The results of the study may be used in training programs to improve the level of students' subjective well-being.

Abstract
Cheese whey is a proven liquid portion of the production of acidic or enzymatic coagulation of milk caseins. Approximately 40% of the content of cheese produced in Brazil is discarded inappropriately, only 15% of dairy products in the country use all raw materials to make new products. Approximately 75% of the world population has some type of lactose intolerance that should be due to inactivity or low activity of the intestinal β-galactosidase enzyme. Β-galactosidase is a protein popularly known as lactase, classified as a hydrolase with the potential to hydrolyze lactose (disaccharide), into glucose and galactose (monosaccharide). It is an enzyme of great importance for the food industry, no sector of dairy products and derivatives. The objective of the present study is to carry out a survey on the biotechnological potential of microalgae for the production of bioactive compounds, such as an β-galactosidase enzyme.

Aim      To compare in-hospital outcomes (severe cardiovascular complications, CVC) in patients with IIB stage chronic lower limb ischemia (CLLI) in combination with ischemic heart disease (IHD) in the following groups: stepwise percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and stenting and angioplasty of lower limb arteries (LLA) (group 1) and combination treatment, including PCI and open surgery on LLA (group 2).

Material and methods  Since 2019, the A.V. Vishnevsky National Medical Research Center of Surgery has performed a retrospective study that includes patients with stage IIB CLLI in combination with IHD. Patients were divided into 2 groups: group 1 (n=46), stepwise X-ray endovascular treatment (PCI and stenting and angioplasty of LLA); group 2 (n=46), stepwise combination treatment (PCI and open surgery on LLA). The endpoint included severe CVCs (death, acute myocardial infarction, acute cerebrovascular disease) and severe complications in the LLA area (stent thrombosis, repeated intervention on LLA, amputation).

Results In 198 surgeries, none of 92 patients had severe CVC, and no fatal outcomes were observed. In group 2, there was one (2.1 %) severe complication on LLA during the early postoperative period, for which a successful additional intervention was performed.

Conclusion      Individualized approach to care of each patient with LLA pathology in combination with IHD helps avoiding severe CVCs at the hospital stage. It was shown that X-ray endovascular and combination treatments are safe and effective in the absence of fatal outcomes and acute disorders of coronary circulation at the hospital stage.

Published: March 2022

The newly developed Heat Exchanger Evacuated Tube Assisted Drying System (HE-ETADS) is fabricated in roof of campus of MITS, Gwalior, India. Heat transfer analysis of developed drying system is carried out by drying mushroom inside it. The heat transfer coefficient plays a significant role in drying method. The study emphasizes on determining the convective as well as evaporative heat transfer coefficients (CHTC & EHTC) and the determination of best drying rate model fit for mushroom drying inside novel drying system. The artificial neural network is developed for predicting the CHTC & EHTC. Value of CHTC & EHTC varies from 2.10 to 3.43 and 25.68 to 49.85 W/m2°C respectively. The developed ANN model helps in predicting the heat transfer coefficient once trained using input factors like solar radiation, relative humidity, environmental temperature and time. The value of R2 for the developed ANN model is 0.99, which shows that model predicts the value very close to the calculated value of heat transfer coefficients. Drying kinetics of mushroom is tried to fit in nine drying rate models. The Midili-Kucuk model shows the better fit among the other models.

Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of the death and disability in the developed nations and is increasing rapidly in the developing countries. Study aimed to estimate and compare the small dense LDL-cholesterol (sdLDL-C) in healthy smokers & non-smokers.

This is analytical observational study, conducted at father Muller medical college Mangalore after approval from the institutional Research & Ethics committee. The subjects were selected from the patients coming for the routine health checkups to the hospital. The participants willing to be part of study between the age group of 25-65yrs of age, with history of cigarette smoking were grouped as group II and healthy non-smokers as group I. A 3ml of fasting blood sample was drawn under all precautionary measures and subjected to analysis at central laboratory biochemistry section after separating the serum.

Total of 760 normal healthy individuals were included in the current study with 480 healthy cigarette smokers and 280 healthy non-smokers. Lipid profile showed a significant difference between the smokers and non-smokers with elevated LDL cholesterol and the sdLDL cholesterol and reduction in level of HDL cholesterol among the smokers compared to non-smokers.

There is a significant higher level of small dense LDL cholesterol among the smokers compared to non-smokers, which can help to predict the risk for future cardiovascular bad events among the smokers.

In recent years, due to rapid urbanization and industrialization, there is an increasing trend of air pollution that has brought the most alarming situation for the health of humans in some developing countries. Among various air pollutants, the most dangerous contaminants are CO (Carbon Monoxide), NO2 (Nitrogen Dioxide) as well as O3 (Ozone). This paper conducted a crucial analysis by utilizing the GEE cloud-based platform with Sentinel-5P TROPOMI satellite imagery of multi-temporal range to analyze the changes of NO2, CO, and O3 at a surface level during the nationwide lockdown in Pakistan due to COVID-19. As the whole country "shuts down", the sudden suspension of industrial activities and sparse vehicles on roads greatly reduced the air pollution. Our study found a notable reduction in NO2 (28.88%), CO (15.81%), and O3 (8.41%). The improvement in the air quality helps people who are suffering from respiratory and related diseases. Our study is helpful for the environmental department to design effective policies and take measures to improve and maintain the air quality.

Published: March 2022

In today’s reality, which is constantly changing and transforming, the constant pursuit of material goods and social position is very evident. Parents often have no time for other household members. While they are mainly concerned with providing their children with the best possible material conditions, they pay too little attention to satisfying their psychological needs. Hence, the feeling of loneliness, which in contrast to solitude, is always a difficult and unpleasant psychological state, appears more and more often among children. The paper attempts to analyse the phenomenon of children’s loneliness in their parents, its sources and ways of overcoming it.
Wspólnota rodzinna a współczesne wyzwania związane z przygotowaniem młodego pokolenia do właściwego rozumienia wartości pracy ludzkiej
Authors: Łobacz Małgorzata
Published: March 2022

Wspólnota rodzinna stanowi podstawowe środowisko życia ludzkiego. To w rodzinie człowiek po raz pierwszy poznaje wartość pracy ludzkiej, doświadcza jej obserwując ludzi pracy czy wykonując różne czynności. Praca ludzka stanowi ważny składnik systemu aksjo-normatywnego społeczeństwa. Zaspokaja ona potrzeby konsumpcyjne człowieka, umożliwia realizację siebie w kontakcie ze światem zewnętrznym i z innymi ludźmi, pozwala też na podejmowanie zadań życiowych. Sprawia, że człowiek czuje się potrzebny, a jego życie ma sens.

W niniejszym artykule została ukazana rola wspólnoty rodzinnej w przygotowaniu młodych pokoleń do właściwego rozumienia wartości pracy. Z jednej strony rodzina powinna ukazywać istotę pracy, jej sens, z drugiej zaś uczyć uczciwego i rzetelnego stosunku do niej, ale także uwrażliwiać na budowanie mądrych relacji międzyosobowych w środowisku pracy (bez niezdrowej rywalizacji, konkurencyjności, wyzysku) i wreszcie zobowiązana jest do uświadamiania, że „praca jest dla człowieka”, dlatego nie on ma jej służyć i w niej się zatracać, ale wykonywać ją w sposób wolny i rozumny, na miarę osoby ludzkiej.

Published: March 2022

Volcanoes are the most rapidly changing and difficult to study geological features. Identifying physical signatures of processes occurring during seismic and volcanic activity is one of the most important problem in seismology. Here we reveal temporal changes of seismic velocity in the upper crust for two years of eruption activity of the Redoubt volcano. Based on correlation of continuous records of seismic noise at pairs of stations, we obtained correlograms for selected time periods. Using the stretching method, we obtained relative velocity changes between stations. These variations appear to be consistent with the results of repeated tomography that was previously derived based on body waves from local earthquakes.
Seismic inversion of depth migration results
Authors: Dmitrachkov D. K. , Protasov M. I.
Published: March 2022

Seismic inversion is used in practice as a tool for predicting reservoir properties. It allows one to extract a model with a high level of detail from seismic data, i.e., high-frequency component of the model. In this case, the input data are the time processing results, and the issues related to the low-frequency component of the model are not considered usually. In the presented work, a model-based seismic inversion algorithm is implemented. The input data for the inversion are the depth image results in true amplitudes and the depth migration velocity model. The possibilities of seismic inversion are numerically investigated to refine the low-frequency component of the model. Experiments were carried out using synthetic seismic data got for realistic Sigsbee model.
