Published: December 2024

ABSTRACT Hymenopteran parasitoids strongly associated with the sugarcane borer [Diatraea saccharalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)] may be found both in organic and conventional sugarcane farming systems. This study aimed to sample parasitoids associated with sugarcane borer in organic, organic near a forest fragment and conventional systems. Two colors of Moericke traps were used (yellow and white) to collect insect samples, and faunistic analyses were performed to determine the composition of parasitoids in each management type. A total of 287 insects were collected, with the most abundant families being Diapriidae (44.44 %), Eulophidae (37.5 %) and Braconidae (18.06 %). The most abundant genus in the organic system was Omphale (Eulophidae), Omphale (Eulophidae) in the organic system near the forest fragment, and Omopria and Coptera (Diapriidae) in the conventional system. The parasitoids were more abundant in the organic system (43.06 %), followed by the organic system near the forest fragment (36.81 %) and the conventional system (20.14 %). The yellow trap was the most effective in attracting parasitoids, which were generally more abundant in organic systems, regardless of proximity to forest fragments.

ABSTRACT Associations between different groups of sweet corn traits enable both the direct and indirect selection of plants, thus increasing the chances of success in breeding programs. This study aimed to estimate the relationships between vegetative and productive traits, as well as genotypic values, using canonical correlations and mixed models. The experiment was carried out in a randomized block design, with ten genotypes and four replications. The following traits were assessed: plant height, main ear insertion height, yield of ears with and without straw, grain mass, ear length, ear diameter and percentage of commercial ears. The significant correlations obtained in the first canonical pair indicate that an increase in height and main ear insertion height result in a decrease in the percentage of commercial ears and yield of ears without straw, being necessary to select plants with plant height values of less than 2.0 m and first ear insertion height of less than 1.0 m to increase them. It was observed that the plant height and main ear insertion height have the highest heritability, indicating the possibility of genetic gain from the artificial selection.

Published: December 2024

Abstract Introduction Lupus nephritis (LN) affects up to 50% of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and may lead to kidney failure and require kidney transplantation (KT). Results compared to KT from other causes are controversial, and we aimed to assess the clinical course, complications, and survival of LN patients undergoing KT. Methodology Retrospective cohort of 99 KT due to LN from 1977 to 2023 at a single center, divided into two groups according to the immunosuppression period: G1 (before 2009) and G2 (from 2009 onwards). Clinical and demographic characteristics, as well as clinical evolution, were compared. Results Patients were predominantly white (65.9%), female (86.9%), in their first KT (83.8%). The median age was 20.0 (11.5–25.0) years at SLE diagnosis, and 30.0 (23.0–40.0) years at KT. Renal graft biopsy was indicated in 46% of patients, with rejection observed in 23%, and LN recurrence in 5%. When assessing the two distinct periods of standard immunosuppression, there was no difference in median glomerular filtration rate and proteinuria at 1 and 5 years, nor in 5-year survival. Throughout follow-up, 37.4% of patients lost their graft, and 13% died with a functioning graft. No graft loss was attributed to LN recurrence. Conclusion KT is a successful treatment for LN, with graft survival rates similar to those of transplants from other causes. LN recurrence was not associated with renal graft loss.
Expropriação e alienação de dados: crítica da economia política da informação nas redes digitais
Authors: Bezerra Arthur Coelho
Published: December 2024

Resumo A partir de pesquisa bibliográfica contemplando conceitos da Ciência da Informação e estudos das novas mídias, em diálogo com escritos clássicos de Karl Marx, o objetivo deste artigo é empreender uma crítica das novas formas de expropriação e alienação de dados de usuários da internet, levadas a cabo por empresas de tecnologia proprietárias de algumas das mais acessadas plataformas digitais. Os resultados da investigação indicam que a produção de dados digitais é hoje um dos principais insumos para os modelos de negócios dessas empresas. Em que pese o caráter disruptivo das novas práticas informacionais favorecidas pelo desenvolvimento da tecnologia, o diálogo com a análise marxista dos fenômenos de expropriação da terra e alienação do trabalho, no bojo do capitalismo do século XIX, revela que as novas formas dominantes de produção, circulação e consumo de informação se encontram, dialeticamente, submetidas às velhas relações sociais do modo de produção capitalista. A conclusão aponta para a relevância da produção de diagnósticos críticos sobre o regime de informação da era digital, para que seja possível não apenas compreender os usos das inovações tecnológicas do âmbito do capitalismo do século XXI, mas também identificar os obstáculos que tais usos possam trazer para a liberdade e a autonomia informacional dos sujeitos, podendo orientar ações práticas para a regulação das plataformas digitais.
Narrando la realidad social: Harriet Martineau en los orígenes de la Teoría Sociológica
Authors: Joaquín María Elena Nogueira
Published: December 2024

RESUMEN La Teoría Sociológica clásica es un campo estudiado a partir de grandes teorías, formas de ver y comprender el mundo y, también, autores: nombres propios que han dado origen a buena parte de su corpus general. La metáfora de los “padres fundadores” se inscribe en esa génesis del conocimiento social de carácter científico. Sin embargo, y no en forma casual, las voces femeninas quedaron mayormente excluidas en esa construcción. Hace ya unos años, y como consecuencia de la irrupción de la cuestión de género en diferentes campos disciplinares, distintos estudios han recuperado a mujeres, silenciadas, “fundadoras” del campo. Este escrito, analiza parte de la obra de Harriet Martineau, pensadora inglesa de un ya avanzado siglo XIX. El análisis tiene como eje transversal la recuperación del recurso narrativo como un instrumento para el análisis sociológico. Para ello, el corpus de trabajo se comprende de cuatro de los muchos escritos de la autora y estudios complementarios. Las dimensiones abordadas han considerado categorías clásicas de la Sociología: percepción de la sociedad y construcción del objeto. La reflexión propuesta enfatiza la necesidad de abordar el análisis propuesto por Martineau y, en especial, el recurso narrativo: contar la realidad social a través de novelas.

ABSTRACT Investigating the suitable pot size for cultivating ornamental plants is crucial for this market, impacting on aesthetic value, consumer preference and producers' costs. The objective was to evaluate how the volumetric capacity of the pot affects the development and ornamental potential of four pepper genotypes from a UENF breeding program. Together with a commercial control, the genotypes were grown in 0.75, 2 and 5 dm3 pots in a greenhouse. The experiment was conducted in a split-plot design with three replications. A total of 29 plant, root, leaf and fruit descriptors were analyzed by counting, weighing and digital image analysis using ImageJ, Tomato analyzer and GiA Roots. The volumetric capacity of the pot influenced root and fruit development and plant structure. The physical restriction of space delayed flowering, reduced vegetative vigor and production of ornamental peppers. For the genotypes evaluated, the use of 2 and 5 dm3 pots is recommended, as they provide better plant growth and development. Digital image analysis helped to distinguish the phenotypes and to understand the effect of pot volume on plant development.

Published: December 2024

Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the impact of a prolonged period of moderate and severe drought on the growth and photosynthetic capacity of seminal cocoa seedlings of the IMC-67 genotype under tropical nursery conditions. Under conditions of humidity of 84–90%, temperature of 25–28°C, and radiation of 600–900 µmol m−2 s−1, the seedlings were subjected to the following treatments: moderate (−1.68±0.05 MPa) and severe (−2.68±0.05 MPa) water stress; and a control, without stress (−0.92±0.02 MPa). Photosynthetic light response curves, chlorophyll a and b fluorescence parameters, and content of proline and photosynthetic pigments were evaluated. Cocoa seedlings subjected to prolonged drought stress show a reduced photosynthetic capacity and growth, which highlights their sensitivity to water scarcity. Adaptive growth responses are evident as seedlings adjust their height and leaf production to available water, showing their resilience to environmental stress. The seedlings activate protective mechanisms, such as increased non-photochemical quenching and elevated carotenoid and proline levels, which help mitigate the effects of a decreased stomatal conductance and photosynthetic pigment content under drought conditions.

Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the nutrient cycling and biomass input of arabica coffee plants managed with a programmed pruning cycle and potassium fertilization. The experiment was carried out in a split-plot arrangement, with four doses of K in the plot, and nine periods of evaluation in the subplot. A randomized complete block design with four replicates was applied. Significance was observed as a function of days after pruning, reaching 78.5% of the decomposed leaf material at 324 days. The release of nutrients showed a variable behavior. At 360 days of evaluation, the percentages of releases nutrients were: 97.2, 79.1, 73.7, 68.0, 48.6, and 32.5, for K, P, Mg, Mn, N, and Ca, respectively. Potassium fertilization levels do not influence the decomposition rate of the leaves eliminated by the programmed pruning cycle in arabica coffee.

Published: December 2024

Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the agronomic performance and fruit quality of three new fusarium-resistant pineapple hybrids and one commercial cultivar, under the environmental conditions of the extreme south region of the state of Bahia, Brazil. The experiments were carried out in the Belmonte and Eunápolis municipalities, in a randomized complete block design with four replicates and four treatments. The evaluation of the performance of the genotypes was based on variables of plant vegetative growth and on fruit size and quality. 'BRS Diamante' and 'BRS Sol Bahia' present a good vegetative vigor and produce large-sized fruit, while 'BRS Real' and 'BRS Imperial' show a lower and similar vigor, which results in the formation of smaller fruit. The new genotypes are of late cycle, taking from 173 to 220 days from flower induction to fruit harvest, with 'BRS Diamante' standing out as having the latest cycle. Fruit of the new hybrids show good quality with a moderate to high soluble solids/titratable acidity ratio, indicating a good potential for consumer acceptance. The new genotypes show significant agronomic potential in the extreme south region of Bahia.
Situación nacional y consecuencias lingüicistas de la educación especial en PEIB en la comuna de Alto Biobío, Chile

Published: December 2024

Resumen Actualmente se cuenta con un marco internacional y un despliegue normativo nacional que orienta la educación a pueblos originarios en torno a reparación histórica, reconocimiento y fortalecimiento de su lengua. Sin embargo, el diagnóstico actual identifica una educación académicamente insuficiente, culturalmente impertinente y lingüísticamente disglosante. Mientras el Programa de Integración Escolar (PIE) busca favorecer los logros de aprendizaje con resguardo cultural, antecedentes internacionales problematizan la impertinencia cultural y lingüística de los supuestos y prácticas patologizantes de la educación especial aplicada en contextos multiculturales. La ausencia del Programa de Educación Intercultural Bilingüe (PEIB) y sus actores en la discusión de los estándares sociolingüísticos al interior del PIE restringe sus posibilidades de resguardo y promoción de derechos culturales y lingüísticos. Desde el marco de patologización de regímenes lingüísticos y comunicacionales no dominantes como forma sofisticada de lingüicismo, esta investigación utilizó una metodología mixta para identificar la situación nacional de proporcionalidad de diagnósticos de necesidades educativas especiales -en general y específicamente asociadas a lengua y comunicación- entre población perteneciente y no perteneciente a pueblos originarios, además de conocer en profundidad la situación lingüística, los usos de los diagnósticos y las consecuencias de su implementación en la comuna de Alto Biobío. Los resultados desfavorables en todos los aspectos investigados enfatizan la necesidad de atender estructuras, ideologías y prácticas que continúan condicionando y promoviendo prácticas diagnósticas e interventivas substractivas y lingüicistas, a objeto de distanciarnos de paradigmas patologizantes hacia impulsos de diversificación lingüística y comunicacional en todo ámbito de la práctica escolar.

Resumen La formación del profesorado implica, más allá de la puesta en práctica de competencias técnicas, un esfuerzo por repensar los espacios pedagógicos y las prácticas de aula. El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar los resultados de un estudio que tuvo como objetivo analizar las características pedagógicas de una práctica de aula desde las conceptualizaciones de docentes formadores y estudiantes de pedagogía en una Escuela de Educación de una universidad chilena. Se utilizó una metodología cualitativa con un enfoque descriptivo-narrativo a 149 participantes (76 docentes y 73 estudiantes) y los datos se analizaron con la técnica de análisis de contenido. Los principales resultados indican que existe una consonancia entre docentes y estudiantes en cuanto a la importancia de la organización de una clase; sin embargo, los estudiantes están más centrados en la importancia de un espacio de voz donde la emocionalidad, la creatividad, y la realidad contextual deben ser consideradas en la formación de profesores. Un hallazgo preocupante es la emergencia de un discurso fragmentado entre un nosotros (los docentes) y ellos (los estudiantes), que cuestiona la clase como unidad pedagógica.

ABSTRACT Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurological condition that can make it difficult to identify symptoms such as pain and neurological changes due to communication limitations. This article reports a case of a 21-year-old autistic patient with cervical disc herniation, treated with posterior endoscopic discectomy. The diagnosis was challenging due to the patient’s inability to clearly express his symptoms, leading to episodes of self-harm. After conservative treatment failed, the endoscopic discectomy was successfully performed using a personalized hospital protocol to minimize the patient’s stress. The procedure was successful, significantly improving quality of life and pain control. This case highlights the importance of considering orthopedic conditions in patients with ASD. It demonstrates the effectiveness of endoscopic discectomy as a minimally invasive option for treating cervical disc herniation in patients with neurological conditions.

ABSTRACT Spinal epidural lipomatosis (SEL) is a rare cause of lumbar stenosis, characterized by excessive fat accumulation in the epidural space, leading to the dural sac and nerve root compression. This case report describes the endoscopic surgical treatment of a symptomatic lumbar SEL case. A 36-year-old male patient presented with chronic low back pain radiating to the left leg and numbness. MRI revealed nerve root compression at L5-S1 due to increased epidural fat. After conservative treatment failure, the patient underwent endoscopic interlaminar decompression, resulting in immediate symptom relief and functional improvement sustained over 24 months. SEL can be associated with steroid use or occur idiopathically. While laminectomy is the traditional treatment, endoscopic techniques offer a less invasive alternative with effective fat removal and spinal stability preservation. Endoscopic interlaminar decompression effectively treated SEL, providing significant symptom relief and long-term quality of life improvement. Level of Evidence IV; Case Report.

ABSTRACT Cauda Equina Syndrome (CES) is a severe neurological emergency resulting from the compression of the lumbosacral nerve roots, potentially causing motor and sensory deficits, as well as sphincter dysfunctions. Early surgical intervention is essential to prevent permanent neurological sequelae. Traditionally, open laminectomy has been the treatment of choice for decompression. Still, minimally invasive techniques, such as endoscopic discectomy, are gaining popularity due to lower morbidity, smaller incisions, and faster recovery. This study reports three cases of patients with CES treated with endoscopic discectomy. Two cases were caused by a large, extruded disc herniation and one by an intracanal facet cyst. Pain intensity was assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and functional disability was measured with the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) in the preoperative period and at follow-ups of 1, 6, and 12 months. All three patients showed significant improvement in symptoms, with pain reduction and functional improvement. At 12 months, the patients maintained their functional and neurological recovery without reported complications. The endoscopic technique proved to be a safe and effective method for treating CES in these cases, offering early recovery and fewer postoperative complications. Future studies with larger populations are needed to validate these findings. Level of Evidence IV; Case Report.

Even though the usage of computer-animated figures in anime with their visual traits and facial features has been a research topic, there is no research on how these characters' appearances affect their general perception. This study aims to investigate how these characters' visual appearances affect and how their acts are perceived by people who don’t have anime literacy but have visual graphic design knowledge. If these visual texts are to justify their status as stories, readers have to look for and construct such ‘actants’ and ‘existents’ from the resources generic comics provide. A qualitative approach based on an interpretive paradigm with inductive reasoning has been used as the major methodology for obtaining information to understand how these visual texts justify their status. To reach this aim perception analysis has been used as a method, four images of cartoon characters have been shown to one hundred and fifty-six participants and open-ended short answer questions have been asked about them. This study was applied to people who were unfamiliar with selected Japanese anime characters, had a visual design background, and could not easily read coded expressions. Additionally, two separate focus group studies were conducted on twenty-four Digital Game Design students to obtain additional opinions from Digital Game Design students. It has been found that people's perceptions are shaped by their personal experiences. It was concluded that even if they know the basic visual design elements, they may misinterpret the visual features and facial features of anime characters if they do not have anime literacy in their perception.
Ghost segments in Sengwer nouns
Authors: Falletti Federico , Remijsen Bert
Published: December 2024

Like other Kalenjin languages, Sengwer has a complex and understudied noun morphology which makes use of an abundance of affixes as well as word-internal tone and ATR changes. In addition, its nominal inflectional paradigms are teeming with unexpected stem-final segments which appear in certain morphological conditions but are absent in others. The phonological composition of this stem-final latent material is not predictable and varies from noun to noun—C, V, CV and even CCV are all possible.This paper provides a first description of the form and distribution of these segments as well as a novel analysis of their behaviour which explains much of the variation and irregularity seen in nominal inflection. In particular, this paper presents evidence that, although some of these latent segments are part of the root, others are part of suffixes and others still are morphologically active suffixes in their own right. In a departure from earlier studies, we argue that these segments should not be analysed as being inserted thematic material and are better understood as deleted ghost segments instead. Though the term ghost refers to a common phenomenon cross-linguistically, it has been characterised using different labels (e.g., latent, liaison, floating) depending on the tradition and the element affected. Building on Zimmermann’s (2019) definition of ghosts, we argue that these phenomena do not only occur to satisfy synchronic phonological constraints but can also be the result of historical processes no longer at work.

To obtain a melt of  the  required  composition,  the chemical composition of the available raw materials is pre-determined experimentally or according to reference books. Using data from derivatographic studies and calculated melt compositions at the required acidity modulus, patterns of  changes  in  melting  temperatures and   crystallization   of   charge   materials,   viscosity   of the resulting melt and its fusibility are established. The selection of the charge composition ends with the compilation of the material and thermal balances of the melting unit. Ill. 1. Ref. 9.

Using vibration molding and co-sintering  technology,  it was possible to obtain a corundum  refractory  material with a dense structure, the values of open porosity and average density of which are comparable with the values characteristic of fused-cast refractories. To obtain a filler for concrete mass, a comparative analysis  of  aluminous raw materials, deflocculating additives and methods of molding filler for large-format corundum refractories of increased density was carried out. Optimal parameters of the filler production technology were determined.  Ill.  8. Ref. 15. Tab. 4.
Die Britse Intelligensiediens tydens die Anglo-Boereoorlog, 1899-1902
Authors: Pretorius F
Published: December 2024

Met hierdie studie word daar gekyk na die rol van die Britse Military Intelligence Division en meer spesifiek sy onderafdeling, die Field Intelligence Department (FID) in Suid-Afrika, tydens die Anglo-Boereoorlog van 1899-1902. Daar word gewys op die goeie werk voor die oorlog. Die rol wat die FID in die Britse nederlae van "Black Week" (10 tot 15 Desember 1899) gespeel het, kry vervolgens aandag. Die nederlae van "Black Week" word hoofsaaklik toegeskryf aan die offisiere se gebrek aan waardering vir behoorlike intelligensie deur verkenners en hul ongegronde optimisme oor die vermoëns van hul eie troepe. Met lord Frederick Roberts se vervanging in Januarie 1900 van sir Redvers Buller as opperbevelhebber van die Britse troepe in Suid-Afrika het taktiese intelligensie dramaties verbeter. Die Boere se nuwe tipe oorlogvoering, naamlik 'n guerrillakryg, het nuwe eise aan die Britse oorlogspoging gestel. Lt.kol. David Henderson het as direkteur van die FID 'n groot bydrae tot die doeltreffendheid van die intelligensiestelsel gelewer. Inligting is veral verkry van Boere wat as spioene in die kommando's opgetree het en swart mense. Ten slotte word die waarde vir die Intelligensiediens bepaal van inligting uit enkele Boere-dagboeke wat in hulle hande geval en deur hulle vertaal is.
'n Vergelyking tussen verwante tale, insluitende Bildts en Afrikaans
Authors: Alberts M
Published: December 2024

Die artikel fokus op ooreenkomste tussen verwante tale, onder andere Bildts en Afrikaans. Hierdie twee tale het 'n gemeenskaplike oorsprong en toon ooreenkomste op bepaalde terminologiese gebiede, veral die landbou. Die terminologies van hierdie tale en ander soortgelyke tale, soos Nederduits, Fries en Nederlands, kom onder die loep. Bepaalde ooreenkomste tussen Bildts, Afrikaans en die Suid-Afrikaanse amptelike Sintutale word ook bespreek. Dit is interessant dat verwante tale terme deur die prosesse van transliterasie en ontlening kan deel, hoewel die kontinente waarop hulle gebruik word, van mekaar verwyder is. 'n Taal, dialek of 'n taalvariëteit staan 'n beter kans om deur leksikografiese prosesse en terminologieskepping te ontwikkel (en te oorleef) as daardie taal of taalvariëteit gestandaardi-seer is en as sodanig erken word. Dit is dus van die uiterste belang om die woordvormingsbeginsels en skryf- en spelreëls van tale of taalvariëteite vas te lê. Hierdie proses, sowel as die opteken van die skriftelike vorm van 'n taal of taalvariëteit lei tot die ontwikkeling van leksikografiese en terminografiese produkte in daardie taal of taalvariëteit.
The attribute system in Osip Mandelstam’s Armenia cycle: A hidden trend to orderliness
Authors:   Smolensk State University, Andreev Sergey N.
Published: December 2024

Attributes, playing the main role in the description of the fiction world, nevertheless are not members of the obligatory environment of the verb. Due to this, their use, as well as the choice of the types of attributes, depends mainly on the author’s preferences and, in general, on the author’s style. The question of how arbitrary the use of attributes is has been considered in a number of quantitative studies, whose results led to the hypothesis that there are certain tendencies in the distribution of various types of attributes in literary texts that do not depend either on the author’s style or poetic form in poetry. One of such important tendencies, hidden from direct observation, is the tendency for an exponential distribution of ranked frequencies of various attribute types in the text. The aim of this study is to test this hypothesis on the basis of Osip Mandelstam’s famous lyrical cycle Armenia, which is characterized by an extremely complicated versification structure. Integrated in sense, it is at the same time extremely heterogeneous in metrical models and in terms of the diversity of the metrical repertoire and rhythmic composition, being one of the most complex cyclic units in Russian literature. This makes it possible to test this hypothesis under special, extremely unfavorable conditions for maintaining the above-mentioned trend. The analysis involves 12 poems of the Armenia cycle and 3 poems about Armenia adjacent to the
cycle, which form a single supertextual space. The list of attributive classes is formed based on the parts of speech of words that take the position of the attribute in the syntactic structure of the sentence. Two approaches to the formation of attribute classes are used: more generalized classes (8 classes) and more fractional classes (21 classes) are formed. In the latter case, a number of additional features of attributes are taken into account (position relative to the word being defined, the possibility of the attribute itself to have attributive valency, structural complexity). The study was carried out within the framework of quantitative analysis using a number of statistical measures (coefficient of variation, coefficient of determination, fitting an exponential function to data). The results of the analysis testify to the strong diversity of the description and the extremely strong variability of the attribute types alongside with the high intensity and static nature of the description. Nevertheless, despite these factors and the presence of various forms and rhythm-metric models in heteromorphic verse, both for a short list of generalized classes and for a more detailed list of attributive types, a tendency was revealed for an exponential distribution of their ranked frequencies, which corroborates the hypothesis about the presence of this kind of regularity in poetic texts.
