Published: July 2023

The scourge of explosive devices such as landmines, improvised explosive devices and unexploded ordnance, a product of armed conflicts in several countries around the world, has set a great precedent in the violation of fundamental human rights. In Colombia, the efforts of the government and NGOs to reduce their effects have succeeded in clearing minefields of more than 8 million square metres and destroying more than 7000 explosive devices. The standards for finding and clearing minefields (Confirmed Hazardous Areas - CHAs) include the determination of geographical coordinates (Latitude and Longitude) based on DATUM WGS84. However, the precision or accuracy in the location of these coordinates according to their capture method has been little studied and analysed, so this research investigates three methods for capturing coordinates on a simulated minefield (CHAs), finding interesting results: (1) The static method with dual frequency GNSS receivers presented a standard deviation of 4 millimetres corroborating a high accuracy, by Stop and Go it ranged between 4 and 19 millimetres with respect to the mean showing also a high accuracy, control by simple radiation confirmed obtaining a mean positional difference of 4.62 centimetres, (2) the capture of coordinates obtained with navigator yielded a mean positional difference of 219.28 centimetres, very similar to that obtained with (3) azimuths and distances without correction for a magnetic declination of 235.73; However, when corrected for magnetic declination, it gave a positional mean with correction of 53.32, which showed a reliability of the method as long as the declination correction is applied and starting from a point with sufficient coordinate accuracy.

Authors: Baheti Dr. Muskan , Reche Dr. Amit , Bajaj Dr. Pavan , Shirbhate Dr. Unnati
Published: July 2023

pain management is one of the most important components of contemporary dentistry that may impact a patient's quality of life. Before local anesthetic injection, oral cavity mucosa pain is frequently managed using topical anesthetics in oral and maxillofacial surgery. This review paper aims to learn about the Eutectic mixture of Local Anaesthetics as topical anesthesia and its implementation in dentistry, which is used to numb oral tissues. This paper aims to learn about the various mechanisms of action of the most common topical and local anesthetic agents, pharmacological action, therapeutic uses, and their side effects. Topical anesthetics work on peripheral nerves to lessen pain perception where they are applied. They are employed in dentistry to reduce localized discomfort brought on by needling, the implantation of orthodontic bands, the vomiting reflex, oral mucositis, and rubber dam clamps. The active chemicals in conventional topical anesthetics, which come in the shapes of solutions, creams, gels, and sprays, are lidocaine or benzocaine. These anesthetic agents come in various formulations created for various applications, to reduce unfavorable reactions, and for maximum anesthetic effectiveness. To give patients a pain-free environment, various strategies are offered. One of the most significant developments in dentistry to prevent patient phobia is the advancement of topical anesthetic drugs. Most are risk-free and cause little irritation or adverse reaction when administered to the oral mucosa. Currently, these medications come in a variety of potencies and indications. Topical anesthetics are helpful during dental procedures because they lessen dental fear, especially in kids, by easing pain and discomfort. A commercial anesthetic drug that has gained appeal among dental practitioners is the eutectic combination of local anesthetics (EMLA), which contains prilocaine and lidocaine. The effectiveness of EMLA as a topical anesthetic agent, which is applied while dental treatments are briefly reviewed in this article.

Authors:   Wonkwang University Legal Research Institute has, Zhao Hui
Published: July 2023

The protection and improvement of drug safety is a major and realistic issue of concern to Chinese society and the public at present. Thus, the crimes concerning endangering drug safety are one of the key areas of Chinese criminal law. The Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China has been regulating crimes concerning endangering drug safety since 1979, and special activities have been carried out in practice to combat crimes concerning endangering drug safety. Although the criminal legislation on crimes concerning endangering drug safety changes frequently in China, its spirit of legislation and the developmental sequence is clear. Firstly, the main legislative form is the criminal code, supported by administrative laws and regulations. Secondly, the scope of criminal law shows a trend of gradual expansion, which is mainly reflected in the expansion of the object of crime and the scope of regulatory act. Thirdly, the time-point of intervention has been brought forward by the criminal law. Fourthly, the punishment tends to be more severe. In criminal legislation of China, the specific content of the crimes concerning endangering drug safety is mainly concentrated on the core crimes related to the act of producing or selling of counterfeit and substandard drugs. This article carried out a detailed analysis of the constituent elements and the controversial issues about these core crimes such as the crime of producing, selling or providing counterfeit drugs, the crime of producing, selling or providing substandard drugs, the crime of disrupting drug administration, the crime of neglecting duties in drug regulation, and other relevant crimes.
Formation of a border ischemic zone depends on plasma potassium concentration.
Authors: Bernikova Olesya , Durkina Alexandra , Gonotkov Mikhail , Minnebaeva Elena , Arteyeva Natalia , Azarov Jan
Published: July 2023

Introduction: In the border zone of ischemic myocardium,
extracellular potassium concentration ([K+]) gradually decreases
from the ischemic to normal area. Since blood [K+] is equilibrated
with the normal tissue [K+], it might affect the [K+] and modify
electrophysiological properties in the border zone. The study aimed at
evaluation of distribution of depolarization and repolarization
characteristics across the ischemic-normal border under blood [K+]
variation. Methods and Results: 64-lead epicardial mapping was
performed in 26 anesthetized rats with [K+] ranged from 2.3 to 6.4
mM in an in vivo model of acute ischemia/reperfusion. The animals with
[K+]<4.7 mM (low-normal potassium) had a typical ischemic
zone with ST-segment elevation and activation delay, a border zone with
ST-segment elevation and no activation delay, and a normal zone without
electrophysiological abnormalities. The animals with [K+]
>4.7 mM (normal-high potassium) had only the typical
ischemic and normal zones and no transitional area.
Activation-repolarization intervals and local conduction velocities were
inversely associated with [K+] in linear regression analysis with
the adjustment for a zone of myocardium. The reperfusion extrasystolic
burden (ESB) was greater in the low-normal as compared to normal-high
potassium animals. Ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation incidence did
not differ between the groups. In patch-clamp experiments, hypoxia
shortened action potential duration at 5.4 mM but not at 1.3 mM of
[K+]. The IK(ATP) current was lower at 1.3 mM than at 5.4 mM of
[K+]. Conclusion: The formation of the border zone was
associated with attenuation of IK(ATP) response to hypoxia in low-normal
[K+] and increased ESB at reperfusion.

Published: July 2023

Airbone viral pathogens can rapidly spread and become a global menace,
including both human and animal viruses which can trigger important
socioeconomical and health effects. Therefore, to prevent and contain
potential epidemic outbreaks, accurate, fast, and affordable diagnostic
point-of-care tests (POCT) are required. As a proof of concept, we have
developed a molecular detection system based in Loop-mediated isothermal
AMPlification technique (LAMP) for two different RNA airborne viruses:
the well-known human SARS-CoV-2, and the avian metapneumovirus (aMPV),
the aetiologic agent of a communicable disease infecting mainly turkeys
and chickens. To obtain a POC diagnostic system, we coupled the LAMP
technique to DNA-functionalized gold nanoparticles detection. Validation
of this system was carried out in 140 pharyngeal swabs from COVID-19
symptomatic and asymptomatic patients, and in 50 different samples
(pharyngeal swabs and tracheal tissue samples) collected from aMPV
infected chickens and turkeys. The system allows viral detection in
about 60 minutes by the naked eye with 100% specificity, and 97.22%
and 87.88% sensitivity for SARS-CoV-2 and aMPV, respectively. In
summary, this novel detection system based on the coupling of RT-LAMP to
DNA-nanoprobes allows suitable virus testing in the field, with accurate
levels very close to conventional qRT-PCR based diagnosis.

Authors: Pantelinac Slobodan , Simic-Panic Dusica , Janjic Natasa , Spasojevic Tijana , Tomasevic-Todorovic Snezana
Published: July 2023

Introduction. A multidisciplinary and therapeutic approach is used for
patients with osteoporotic bone fractures. Falls, leading to injuries,
including bone fractures, are a common occurrence in the elderly suffering
from osteoporosis. Multifactorial risk assessment is of great importance in
identifying risk factors for the occurrence of falls, their removal and
implementing preventive measures. The issue of risk assessment is very
current and treated by related professional recommendations and national and
international guidelines. The latter point out the following fall risks:
previous falls, use of psychotropic substances, vision impairment, mobility,
gait, muscle strength and balance and impairment of cognitive functions.
Fear of falling, psychological passivity, urinary incontinence, inadequate
footwear and certain neurologic and cardiovascular conditions are also
considered additional risks. Fall risks may also be environmental (within
the dwelling and outside), such as low lighting, inadequate furniture and
its disposition, difficulty in accessing the bed, chair, toilet, bathroom,
stairs and other. For a realistic fall risk estimate, besides using adequate
questionnaires, several static and dynamic tests may be used to assess
balance and mobility. Depending on the type of risk factors present, actions
for their removal through information, education and participation of the
elderly in preventive measures are also recommended. Conclusion.
Multifactorial risk assessment of fall occurrence and bone fracture, as of
recovery, are of great importance within certain population groups,
especially the elderly.
Undesired consequences of labour market reforms: From temporary to precarious jobs - the case of Spain
Authors: Ferreiro Jesús , Gómez Carmen
Published: July 2023

One of the peculiarities of the Spanish labour market has been the existence
of a high share of temporary employment, a result of the 1984 labour reform
which made the use of temporary contracts more flexible. Since 1994, various
reforms have sought to increase the use of open-ended contracts and
discourage the use of fixed-term contracts. Although these reforms, in
particular the 2012 and 2021 reforms, have led to a reduction in the share
of temporary workers they have also created other unintended problems, such
as a reduction in the duration of fixed-term contracts, the proliferation of
part-time contracts and atypical open-ended contracts, and a high share of
temporary employment in public sector.
The role of personality traits and emotional intelligence in predicting academic stress among university students
Authors: Mijatovic Luka , Strizak Nevena
Published: July 2023

According to previous studies, academic stress is related to both basic
personality traits and emotional intelligence (EI) as a trait which has
demonstrated its relevance in numerous research regarding stress and mental
health domains. The present study sought to examine the role of trait EI in
predicting academic-related stress, while controlling basic personality
traits. A sample (N=288) completed: 1) Perceptions of Academic Stress (PAS)
Scale, measuring intensity of academic-related stress, 2) HEXACO PI-R
comprising traits Honesty-Humility, Emotionality, Extraversion,
Agreeableness, Conscientiousness and Openness, and 3) the TEIQue, examining
trait EI (encompassing factors Well-Being, Self-control, Emotionality, and
Sociability). The subjects in this online research were students from the
University of Belgrade. Four hierarchical regression models comprising the
HEXACO traits (entered 1st) and trait EI factors (entered 2nd) as
predictors, and academic stress variables as criterions variables, were
tested. HEXACO traits explained 8-25% of variance, while predictors of the
second block incrementally explained 5-7% of the variance in academic
stress. The current data suggests that specific emotion-related personality
dispositions encompassed by trait EI have a significant role in predicting
academic-related stress and indicates its incremental predictive validity
over basic personality traits. The practical implications of the obtained
results refer to the importance of programs for planned, targeted
stimulation of EI in the context of education.
Mandibular alveolar bone thickness in untreated Class I subjects with different vertical skeletal patterns: a cone-beam computed tomography study
Authors: Formosa Joseph , Zou Min , Chung Chun-Hsi , Boucher Normand S. , Li Chenshuang
Published: July 2023

Objective

To evaluate the mandibular alveolar bone thickness in untreated skeletal Class I subjects with different vertical skeletal patterns.

Materials and Methods

A total of 50 preorthodontic treatment cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of a skeletal Class I Chinese population with near-normal occlusion were selected. The buccal and lingual alveolar bone thicknesses of mandibular canines to second molars were measured at 2 mm below the cementoenamel junction (CEJ), mid-root, and root apex levels. Differences in the measurements were analyzed with Mann-Whitney U-test. The correlation between alveolar bone thickness and the sella-nasion–mandibular plane (SN-MP) angle was calculated using Pearson correlation coefficients and linear regression analysis.

Results

Buccal alveolar bone was thinner on all mandibular canines to first molars but thicker on second molars in comparison with lingual alveolar bone. Buccal alveolar bone was within 1 mm at the levels of 2 mm below CEJ and mid-root for the canines and first premolars. Significant differences were detected among subjects with different vertical patterns, with a negative correlation between the SN-MP angle and alveolar thickness, especially in the canine and premolar regions. The thinnest buccal and lingual alveolar bone were detected in the high-angle group canine region (0.50 mm at the levels of 2 mm below CEJ and mid-root for the buccal side, 0.90 mm at the level of 2 mm below the CEJ for the lingual side).

Conclusions

To avoid periodontal complications, buccal-lingual movement of the mandibular canines and first premolars should be limited, especially in high-angle patients.
Influence of Phosphoric, Glycolic, and Ferulic Acids on Dentin Enzymatic Degradation, Ultimate Tensile Strength, and Permeability
Authors: Isabel CAC , Basting RT , França FMG , Amaral FLB do , Turssi CP , Basting RT
Published: July 2023

This study evaluated dentin enzymatic degradation based on the total matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity of demineralized dentin matrices before and after exposure to phosphoric acid (PA), glycolic acid (GA), and ferulic acid (FA). The release of hydroxyproline (HP), ultimate tensile strength (UTS), and dentin permeability (DP) were also evaluated. Dentin collagen matrices were assessed according to total MMP activity before and after treatment with the tested acids (n=10) for 15 seconds and compared with the control (GM6001 inhibitor). Dentin beams were analyzed for HP release and UTS after the treatments. Dentin discs were tested for DP at a pressure of 5 psi before and after treatment with the acids (n=10). The FA group had a lower percentage of enzymatic inhibition than the PA and GA groups (p<0.0001). No significant difference in UTS was found among the acids (p=0.6824), but HP release was significantly higher in the FA group than in the PA and GA groups (p<0.0001). No significant difference in DP was found for the acids (p=0.0535). GA led to less activation of MMPs and less release of HP, whereas the UTS and DP for GA were like those found for PA. In contrast, FA promoted greater enzymatic activity and greater release of HP, while having similar results to GA and PA regarding mechanical properties.

Published: July 2023

Invasions of alien species have become a global problem worldwide. Our paper presents the results of the study of the chorology of the invasive species Ambrosia artemisiifolia L. within the Right-Bank Forest-Steppe of Ukraine (RBFSU). We identified 13 new growth areas in the study area. These studies cover the observation and recording of the phenological behaviour of this species during 2020-2021. Although phenological observations are mainly carried out on cultivated plants, the data obtained as a result of the study is an important resource for preparing an invasive species control plan. Based on the indicators of temperature fluctuations, drought tolerance, light tolerance, relation to soil fertility, reproduction and shoot regeneration of A. artemisiifolia, a scoring method was proposed using the coefficient of complex adaptive potential (CCAP). However, our work is a pioneering study aimed at counteracting the spread of alien plants.

Authors: Sari Desi Kurnia , Aisyah Nyimas , Hapizah Hapizah
Published: July 2023

Relational comprehension represents a critical skill that students should acquire to correctly associate concepts. This investigation aims to cultivate a High Order Thinking Skills (HOTS)-based Student Worksheet that is both valid and practical, as well as effective, with the potential to significantly influence the relational comprehension of senior high school students. The 'design research' method, incorporating a 'formative research' development model, is used in this research, which is broken down into two stages: initial assessment and self-review. This study was carried out at Muhammadiyah 1 High School in Palembang, focusing on tenth-grade students. Data was evaluated qualitatively in a descriptive manner, founded on observations, interviews, and tests. The study's findings highlight that the developed HOTS-based student worksheet is valid, practical, and efficient in boosting students' relational comprehension once implemented in the classroom. The test outcomes indicate that students possess a reasonably good ability to comprehend HOTS category C4 problems, but are lacking in understanding HOTS category C5 problems. Therefore, additional research is deemed necessary to enhance students' understanding of HOTS category C5 problems.

Authors: Safitri Gita , Darhim Darhim , Dasari Dadan
Published: July 2023

The surface area and volume of cubes and cuboids are mathematical concepts related to everyday life. However, many students need help learning this concept. This study aims to analyze the learning obstacles junior high school students encounter when solving mathematical representation problems on the concept of surface area and volume of cubes and cuboids. This study uses an interpretive paradigm which is part of Didactical Design Research (DDR). Students at one of the public junior high schools in Jambi City were given six questions related to mathematical representation after the researchers conducted classroom observations, which were then followed by interviews with students with high, moderate, and low representation abilities. Data analysis techniques include data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The results showed that students experienced three learning obstacles: ontogenic, epistemological, and didactical. Furthermore, the results of this study can be a consideration for teachers to create learning designs for surface area and volume of cubes and cuboids that can anticipate student learning obstacles and develop students' mathematical representation abilities.

Published: July 2023

Mathematics textbooks that provide more descriptions of material and routine problems used so far cannot facilitate students in active learning activities. The lack of active students in learning activities causes creative thinking skills not to develop optimally. This paper aims to describe how problem-based learning textbooks can facilitate students in solving problems with different or varied solutions and even something new to foster creative thinking skills. This problem-based textbook has been developed and is one of the research products of IAIN Metro lecturers in 2021. This research is an experimental study consisting of experimental and control groups. Data collection techniques using tests and observations. The test data were analyzed using the mean difference test using the Mann-Whitney formula, while the observation data were analyzed using a descriptive qualitative approach. The findings of this study are constructive learning activities and open problems contained in problem-based learning textbooks significantly improve creative thinking skills. It is shown that the increase in creative thinking skills of students who study using problem-based learning textbooks is substantially higher than students who study using other textbooks. Thus, problem-based learning textbooks contribute to improving students' creative thinking skills.

Published: July 2023

Los medios de comunicación, las organizaciones sociales y los ciudadanos nos encontramos inmersos en un ecosistema comunicativo en constante transformación. Actualmente, tecnologías como el 5G, el Internet de las cosas, la realidad virtual, la realidad aumentada o los asistentes virtuales inteligentes están modificando la forma en la que se produce, distribuye, comparte y consume la información. ¿En qué medida se han investigado en España estas transformaciones comunicativas y sociales? El objetivo del estudio que se presenta es identificar las principales líneas de la investigación realizada en nuestro país entre los años 2007 y 2018 en torno a los usos y aplicaciones de las nuevas tecnologías en el periodismo, abriéndonos a explorar también los diferentes contextos y ámbitos de la comunicación: Comunicación mediática, interpersonal y organizacional, entre otros. Se pretende identificar los objetos de estudio más recurrentes cuando se investigan las aplicaciones de las TIC en los distintos escenarios comunicativos y nos cuestionamos también sobre los marcos teóricos y metodológicos empleados para investigar la digitalización y el empleo de las nuevas tecnologías aplicadas a la comunicación en la Sociedad de la Información. Para ello, se analiza el contenido de los textos que recogen los resultados de la investigación llevada a cabo sobre el uso de las nuevas tecnologías, encontrándose que la mayor parte de los estudios se centran en la aplicación de las nuevas tecnologías a la práctica profesional del periodismo. La fuente de datos son las distintas bases del proyecto MAPCOM (2007-2018), concretamente aquellas que refieren a los artículos de investigación publicados por revistas científicas españolas que tienen como objeto de estudio la aplicación de las TIC en los diferentes ámbitos de la comunicación referidos. Los resultados de esta meta-investigación sobre cómo los cambios tecnológicos provocados por las TIC han afectado a la comunicación nos indican que la investigación en comunicación se centra en los cambios que se producen en el contexto de los profesionales de la comunicación y en el empleo de las redes sociales por parte de los profesionales y de las audiencias, siendo escasas las investigaciones sobre los impactos y los riesgos asociados a la digitalización.
Cultural Values Revitalization: A Post-Conflict Peace Building Effort in Ambon City
Authors: Sunarimahingsih Yulita Titik , Susanti B. Tyas , Dewi Y. Trihoni Nalesti Dewi Nalesti
Published: July 2023

Ambon has experienced a social disaster in the form of a conflict that occurred in 1999-2004. Many attempts were made to overcome it. Basically, the Ambonese people have unique traditions and cultural symbols that can be a means of uniting them, but small emotional flareups still appear which cause further friction and conflict, therefore revitalizing the local cultural values is important. The revitalization of Ambonese cultural values and traditional symbols is important. Currently, the gap in communication and understanding of noble values, local wisdom,  and the meaning of cultural symbols is the main obstacle in efforts to use it for reconciliation. This research reports the aim of finding a strategy for revitalizing cultural values and cultural symbols in Ambon, as one way to promote sustainable peace and rebuild Ambon's identity as a city that is full of local philosophy and cultural wisdom. The method used is a qualitative method with post-disaster management analysis. The research finds that a revitalization process strategy for reconciliation can be done by means of (1) Building integration of local wisdom and culture in public space, and (2) internalizing the local values and the marking of cultural symbols.
Female Agency through Border-Crossing and Transformation in Native American Women’s Poems
Authors: Kristianto Bayu
Published: July 2023

This paper analyzes two poems by indigenous women authors from America, Karenne Wood and Joy Harjo, centering on the deer image, “Deer Woman” and “Deer Dancer,” respectively. The deer image has certain significance for these authors and their communities, because deer were hunted to provide sustenance for their survival. In certain cases, in these communities, boundaries between the deer and the human could not be easily ascertained. The transformation of the deer into the human and vice-versa underscores the fluid boundaries of human relationships with other beings, as well as the power and agency that emanate from such transformation. Through a close reading of the two poems, analysis reveals a conception of female agency that centers on willing transformation and aims for complete union with another in the interest of community survival and well-being. These native women authors’ poetic representations of deer serve as a critique of female agency, which is usually and primarily defined from the perspective of Western feminists.

Ältere: Personalreserve für den sich verschärfenden Arbeits- und Fachkräftemangel?
Authors: Walwei Ulrich
Published: July 2023

Companies are finding it increasingly difficult to recruit not only skilled workers but also staff for simpler jobs. The economic downturn due to the Russian war of aggression on Ukraine and the associated price increases as well as supply chain problems are at best slightly slowing demand. But the bottleneck situation on the labour market could worsen: On the one hand, the transformation of an economy that is increasingly relying on digitalisation and decarbonisation will require experienced specialists. The double transformation is changing the need for qualifications, which could intensify competition on the labour market. On the other hand, demographic developments are leading to a shortage and simultaneous ageing of the labour supply. This brings the employment of older people into focus. If it were possible to keep the generally well-qualified baby boomers in employment longer, the labour and skills gap could be reduced.
Schizophrenogen - Eine Wissensgeschichte des Verhältnisses zwischen Schizophrenie, Familie und Gesellschaft (1948–1980)
Authors: Lienhard Marina
Published: July 2023

Wie die angloamerikanischen Psychowissenschaften während des Kalten Kriegs die Familie als schizophrenogene Umgebung konzeptualisierten, ist Gegenstand dieses Buchs. Familienbeziehungen galten als besonders störungsanfällige Systeme, deren Fehlfunktion schlimmstenfalls zu «Anpassungsstörungen» wie der Schizophrenie führen könne. Je nach Perspektive war es die übermässige oder die ungenügende Anpassung an die gesellschaftliche Ordnung, die Forschende als Problem für die Familie sahen. Somit war die Familie als Produktionsstätte künftiger Bürger und als «Keimzelle der Gesellschaft» auch der bevorzugte Ort, um regulierend einzugreifen. Dieses Buch beleuchtet die wissenschaftlichen und soziokulturellen Hintergründe dieses Forschungszusammenhangs zwischen Psychoanalyse, Kybernetik, Psychiatrie und Antipsychiatrie.
Wunder. «Ich nehme das Wort nicht leichtfertig in den Mund» - Meine Lebensgeschichte, aufgezeichnet in Zusammenarbeit mit Philippe Pfister
Authors: Holzhey Helmut
Published: July 2023

Helmut Holzhey blickt auf ein bewegtes Leben zurück. Als Kind durchlebte er den Zweiten Weltkrieg; mit 16 wurde er von der DDR-Staatssicherheit verhaftet und verhört; er musste nach Westberlin flüchten. Sechs Jahre später führte ihn sein Theologiestudium nach Zürich. Hier zog ihn seine Leidenschaft für die grossen Fragen von der Theologie zur Philosophie – ein langer Weg zur Professur begann.
In dieser Autobiographie fällt immer auch Licht auf die wichtigen politischen und gesellschaftlichen Entwicklungen der Nachkriegszeit: Holzhey erlebte hautnah die revolutionäre Aufbruchsstimmung der 1960er Jahre und die angespannte Lebenssituation im zweigeteilten Deutschland. Er schildert die Wandlungen und Brüche in der akademischen Kultur. Im letzten Kapitel schlägt der Autor am Leitfaden seiner religiös-philosophischen Orientierung einen Bogen über das Ganze seines Lebens.
Friedrich Amstutz - Ein Innerschweizer Leben in den Fängen von Psychiatrie und Justiz
Authors: Raselli Niccolò
Published: July 2023

Dieses Buch dokumentiert die Geschichte eines Menschen, der zu Unrecht über lange Jahre seiner Freiheit beraubt wurde. Der vermögende Landwirt und erfolgreiche Unternehmer Friedrich Amstutz ist ein unbequemer Zeitgenosse. Sein im Dorfkern gelegener Schweinestall führt zu Streit mit den Nachbarn und dem Gemeinderat. 1933 wird er verhaftet und in die Irrenanstalt Burghölzli verbracht. Der Gutachter sitzt Gerüchten auf, Amstutz sei gemeingefährlich, und beantragt dessen Bevormundung und Internierung. Erst nach 20 Jahren setzt ein führender Psychiater der Ungeheuerlichkeit ein Ende. «Ich schätze den in die Irrenanstalt abgedrängten Eigenbrötler mit dem innerschweizerischen Charakterkopf sehr und möchte alles vorgekehrt wissen, um Unrecht gut zu machen», schreibt er. Doch die Gemeinde weigert sich, den inzwischen gut 60-jährigen Amstutz zu entschädigen. So verzichtet er auf die Rückkehr in seine Heimat und auf sein verbliebenes Vermögen. Seinen Lebensabend verbringt er als Bauernknecht.

A cafeína é uma substância presente em diversas bebidas e suplementos, que sua forma mais comum de ingestão é através do café. Devido a ampla procura pela substância e sua larga distribuição mundial, este trabalho apresenta uma revisão de literatura sobre a cafeína e seus efeitos no organismo humano. Ao longo do tempo, a cafeína teve seu consumo aumentado em diversas faixas etárias, além de estar presente em diferentes produtos. A ingestão da cafeína pode estimular a concentração e melhorar o desempenho físico, devido ao seu efeito estimulante do sistema nervoso central. O uso em suplementos está envolvido nos seus efeitos termogênicos, auxiliando no processo de lipólise e melhorando o rendimento nas atividades físicas. O consumo da cafeína é associado ainda com a redução do LDL-colesterol, porém, os  efeitos sobre o colesterol plasmático ainda são controversos. Todavia,  o uso excessivo da cafeína pode trazer malefícios ao sistema cardiovascular como a diminuição da frequência e pressão cardíaca, dilatação de vasos e redução da temperatura corporal. A sua ingestão quando associada a bebidas alcoólicas pode ocultar a sensação depressiva do álcool, podendo elevar as chances de intoxicação. Na gestação aconselha-se o uso limitado, pois não há estudos conclusivos sobre os efeitos da cafeína para o feto. A relação risco e benefício deve sempre ser avaliada de acordo com cada indivíduo, sendo o aconselhamento e acompanhamento do consumo da cafeína realizado por um profissional de saúde habilitado, como o farmacêutico, para assim se reduzir possíveis prejuízos que a cafeína pode trazer à saúde.

Published: July 2023

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of ultrasonic activation (UA) on the setting time and flow of four endodontic sealers: AH Plus (AH), Sealer Plus (SP), MTA Fillapex (MTAF), and BioRoot RCS (BIO). Properties were evaluated as required by ANSI/ADA Specification N° 57 (2008); only the size of the specimens was modified. UA was applied using a smooth tapered ultrasonic tip coupled to a piezoelectric ultrasonic device (30% power) on the freshly mixed materials in two cycles of 20 seconds. The results were statistically analyzed using the ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis tests, followed by the Tukey and Dunn posthoc tests, respectively, depending on the normality of the data. The shortest setting times, initial and final, were, 115 (BIO/UA) and 148.6 (BIO/UA) min, whereas the longest were 1215 (AH) and 1928 (AH) min. The MTAF sealer did not set throughout the experimental period (2880 minutes). Significant differences were observed between BIO and MTAF and the other sealers, with or without UA, both in the initial and final setting time (P < 0.05). UA did not change the initial setting times; however, it reduced the final setting of BIO (P < 0.05). The highest and lowest flow values observed were 25.52 mm (AH/UA) and 18.66 mm (BIO/UA), respectively. The AH sealer, regardless of UA, exhibited higher flow values compared to the other sealers (P < 0.05), except for the MTAF/UA group, which was the only sealer in which UA promoted a significant flow increase (P < 0.05). Under the conditions of the study, it can be concluded that the BIO, under UA, presented the lowest setting time; however, it exhibited the lowest flow values. The MTAF sealer did not reach its final setting. Moreover, the SP groups exhibited intermediate results in all analyses. In summary, only the final setting time of the BIO group and the flow values of the MTAF group were influenced by UA.
Afinal, o lítio é um teratógeno relevante?

O lítio já foi apontado nos anos de 1980 como um forte teratógeno. Uma revisão de estudos posteriores realizada nos anos 1990 estimou que o risco de malformações cardíacas era menor do que o relatado e deveria estar entre 0,9% a 12%. Este artigo revisa os dados destes estudos e assinala possíveis vieses que podem colocar em dúvida as estimativas aceitas na atualidade. Concluiu-se  que, considerando as sérias limitações dos estudos retrospectivos, caso-controle e prospectivos sobre este tema, o potencialteratogênico do lítio não deve ser desprezado e, portanto, é uma medicação que deve ser prescrita com muito critério durante a gravidez. Quando houver a exposição, é aconselhável realizar uma ecocardiografia fetal e neonatal para excluir a possibilidade de anomalias cardíacas. Antipsicóticos e lamotrigina podem ser possíveis alternativas para o tratamento do transtorno bipolar durante a gravidez.
Psicopatologia e Classificação em Psiquiatria
Authors: Abreu José Luís Pio
Published: July 2023

A saúde mental, antes focada principalmente na patologia psiquiátrica, tem como objeto de estudo todo o contexto biopsicossocial no qual o sujeito está inserido. Além disso, mais recentemente, tem surgido maior interesse na investigação das possíveis diferenças entre gêneros. Sobre a mente feminina, é imprescindível que os profissionais da saúde tenham a atenção e o conhecimento necessários sobre os transtornos psíquicos associados ao ciclo reprodutivo, devido tamanha repercussão que causam não somente à paciente. Diversas questões ainda estão em aberto no que se refere a um tema tão amplo quanto à saúde mental da mulher. Neste artigo traremos um breve panorama histórico, atualidades e perspectivas.

Authors: Tostes Janaína Siqueira R. Martins , Pinto Alexandre de Rezende , Moreira-Almeida Alexander
Published: July 2023

Há um consistente e diversificado corpo de evidências indicando a relevância da Religiosidade e Espiritualidade (R/E) para a saúdemental. É sabida a importância e o impacto que a R/E têm sobre a saúde. Entretanto, devido à carência de treinamento em temas desta natureza, grande parte dos profissionais de saúde têm dificuldades em lidar com a R/E na prática clínica. Este artigo visa  oferecer uma breve orientação de algumas das diretrizes práticas de abordagem da R/E no atendimento clínico psiquiátrico e geral. Os profissionais são orientados a coletar a história espiritual do paciente no primeiro atendimento, propiciando a abertura para um diálogo sobre essa temática e determinando a postura e abordagem adequada para a condução do tratamento. Em alguns momentos poderá ser necessário desafiar as crenças que estão sendo utilizadas de maneira prejudicial ou, ainda, contatar o líder religioso. São discutidos critérios que auxiliam na distinção entre experiências espirituais e transtornos mentais. Por fim, o artigo discute brevemente intervenções psicoterapêuticas que incluem a R/E. Conclui-se que aspectos da R/E têm importantes implicações para a saúde mental das pessoas, devendo perpassar as questões de ensino na área e ser incorporada nas práticas de saúde. O desenvolvimento e a implementação das implicações clínicas da R/E nos cuidados em saúde mental estão entre os principais desafios na área.

Authors: Fahrudin Tora , Wijaya Dedy Rahman
Published: July 2023

Machine learning (ML) development starting in the 1950s, has shown significant progress. Various fields have used machine learning as an information system element that is useful in assisting data processing, personalization, prediction, and performing anomaly detection of occurring transactions. Along with developments, cloud-based machine learning technology is becoming the choice for ease of implementation and connectivity with various other technology platforms. This paper proposes a machine learning architecture as a service (MLaaS) implemented in a case study of a gender prediction model based on height and weight. The results show that the MLaaS architecture is straightforward to implement and fits the needs of various access environments and the ease of updating models centrally. Our gender prediction model achieved 91.78% in the precision, recall, and F1-score, 91.8% in specificity and NPV, and 91.79% in accuracy.
