De cunho bibliográfico, analisa as concepções de escola e de professor que circulam na literatura da área, identificando o professor de Educação Infantil como responsável por oportunizar as condições objetivas nas quais o conhecimento se processa e as escolas de Educação Infantil enquanto instituições privilegiadas para disponibilizar as ferramentas para que a criança aprenda sobre o mundo e sobre os conhecimentos em torno deste. Esse estudo evidenciou a necessidade de se ampliar as discussões sobre o tema, a fim de se buscar caminhos para a reconstrução da identidade dos professores de Educação Infantil, que precisa ser pensada em termos de reconhecimento da profissão docente e do seu papel social, político e profissional, assim como colocar em relevo a importância das escolas de Educação Infantil.
Cultural Creative Product Design Methods under the Path of User Empathy
Authors: Kong Yifan
Published: May 2024

As consumption upgrades, China’s cultural and creative industry is experiencing rapid growth. However, user empathy remains lacking in some products. This paper explores a design method for these products based on empathy theory. It employs the TF-IDF algorithm to extract semantic features from product texts and uses the SVM algorithm for classification. Post-classification, the LDA theme model analyzes sentiment, integrating both visual and semantic models to enhance product design. An analysis of cultural and creative products using data analysis software reveals that approximately 79.5% of user comments exhibit positive sentiment, with an average sentiment score of 2.9218 and a peak score of 39.1363. This suggests strong positive emotional responses from nearly 80% of users. The proposed method effectively enhances user-product interaction and empathy.

Wild boars, being a common game species, inhabit regions across Eurasia, the southern regions of Asia and certain Indonesian islands. Being omnivorous and due to their relatively long lifespan, wide distribution and a relatively high number of shot animals per annual legal hunting season, they are suitable to be biological indicators of occurrence of heavy metals. Concentrations of cadmium, lead, arsenic and mercury were analyzed by atomic absorption spectrometry and cold vapor atomic absorption spectrometry in the livers of free-living wild boars (n = 58) from two locations in the Republic of North Macedonia. In all four examined heavy metals, no statistically significant difference between the locations was found (p > 0.05). The mean levels of heavy metals were Cd 0.391 mg/kg and 0.339 mg/kg; Pb 0.213 mg/kg and 0.204 mg/kg; Hg 0.034 mg/kg and 0.037 mg/kg; As 0.035 mg/kg and 0.029 mg/kg in the livers of boars from Bitola and Gevgelija hunting sites, respectively. Although some samples (two samples of Hg, ten samples of Cd and two samples of Pb) exceeded the legal limits, the average values for all heavy metals were far below the maximum permitted values. These findings are promising since they suggest that the ecosystem in the Republic of North Macedonia is stable concerning heavy metal pollution.

The aim of this study was to examine morphometric values of erythrocytes in donkeys and horses. While the hematological and biochemical profiles of horses and donkeys have been previously documented in literature, there are no precise morphometric data regarding erythrocytes in donkeys. Given the increasing presence of donkeys in the world, the need exists to improve knowledge about this species. Balkan donkey is a large autochthonous breed found in Serbia. Blood cell parameters such as red blood cell count (RBC), Mean Corpuscular Volume or Mean Cell Volume (MCV) are well documented in horses. However, papers examining blood morphometry in donkeys, especially erythrocyte size, are scarce. The clinical examination in this study included a total of 72 horses and donkeys. All animals were adults, located in Vojvodina, Northern Province of Serbia. Blood samples were evaluated and analyzed using ImageJ program. Following the analysis of the morphometric diameters of erythrocytes in donkeys and horses, it can be concluded that donkeys have the largest erythrocyte diameters. The precise reason for this phenomenon is still unknown.

Published: May 2024

This study aims to investigate the potential for biodiesel production from oilseed crops in Serbia, using a novel assessment method. The method involves calculating the arable land area that can be utilized for raw material production for the biodiesel industry. The available land for the production of biodiesel feedstocks is determined by subtracting the land required to meet the food needs of the domestic population and livestock from the maximum oilseed production area, which is defined as 20% of the total arable land area in Serbia. The findings reveal that approximately 353,000 hectares of land are available for producing raw materials for biodiesel production without compromising the domestic food supply. This land can provide enough raw materials to produce up to 324,000 tonnes of biodiesel annually, equivalent to 15.2% of the total domestic diesel fuel consumption for transportation in 2021.

Published: May 2024

The goal of this research was to identify lung lesions in slaughtered fatteners originating from registered farms. Evaluation of lung lesions was based on their visible macroscopic features, which were then associated with corresponding diseases. Data on lung lesions in slaughtered fatteners were collected over the period spanning from October to December 2022 from three slaughterhouses (A, B, C), involving 150 fattening animals from each slaughterhouse. The examination of slaughtered pig lungs from all three slaughterhouses in our study revealed that Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae lesions in the lungs are the most prevalent, while Actinobacillus pleuropneumonia and bronchopneumonia occurrences are rare.

Authors: Ilić Teodora , Peštović Kristina , Saković Dušan , Rađo Dijana
Published: May 2024

This study investigates earnings management and its determinants in the agricultural and manufacturing sectors, with the aim of promoting the quality of financial reporting. The sample includes 1,381 actively operating companies in AP Vojvodina, Republic of Serbia, in the period from 2019 to 2021. Earnings management activities are identified using discretionary accruals computed with modified Jones model. Panel data analysis reveals that profitability and company size exert a positive and statistically significant influence on earnings management practices. Conversely, sales growth demonstrates a negative and statistically significant impact on earnings management. Furthermore, the analysis across the studied years indicates statistically significant differences in the prevalence of earnings management practices. However, the study found no significant differences in earnings management practices between the agriculture and manufacturing sectors. The significance of this study lies in its potential to provide valuable insights for investors, regulators, and financial analysts, helping them in making informed decisions. Moreover, it contributes to refinement of financial reporting standards and enforcement mechanisms, and enables a more accurate assessment of the financial health and performance of companies in both industries. The research also endeavors to identify sector-specific factors influencing earnings management dynamics, with the aim of enhancing transparency and optimizing decision-making processes in the financial environment.

Authors: Dwarakish Gowdagere Siddaramaiah , Pai Ballambettu Jagadeesha , Rajeesh Ramakrishnan
Published: May 2024

Flooding in urban areas is increasingly becoming a global challenge, driven by extreme rainfall events and the vulnerability or resilience of affected regions. This urban flood disaster not only threatens societal security but also hampers economic development in cities. Satellite remote sensing technology has played a crucial role in all aspects of flood disaster management, including preparedness, prevention, and relief efforts. Space systems, with their advantageous perspective, have proven their ability to provide essential information and services for effective flood management.

This study focuses on creating flood hazard maps for Bengaluru’s urban district using an Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)-based Multi-Criterion Decision Analysis (MCDA) and Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques. Factors such as rainfall, drainage networks, land use, groundwater levels, terrain elevation, slope, and soil type are considered. The AHP method assigns weights and ranks to each factor, and a weighted linear combination approach is used to merge basic maps into the final flood vulnerability map.

Authors: Kanav Asmita , Kumar Sanjit , Sharma Rekha , Kumar Jitendra
Published: May 2024

The industrial and economic development has initiated the rapid growth of small and medium-sized towns in India. Rewari City, a part of the National Capital Region of India, is undergoing rapid urban expansion. This study analyzes the process of urban expansion in Rewari city, its effect on land use & land cover dynamics and landscape spatial patterns. The methodology of the study is reliant on open-source Landsat satellite data, GIS-based unsupervised classification, and spatial metrics analysis. The city expansion has been analyzed for a period of 31 years, from 1989 to 2020, and population growth has been studied since 1901. Within the study period, built-up area increased by 704%, with an annual expansion rate of 12.8 %. The other land cover classes, such as agriculture land, vegetation, barren land, and water bodies shrank in size over the years. Between 1989 and 2020, 69.4 % of the increase in built up area came at the expense of vegetation and agricultural land. It was also found that per capita land consumption rate increased significantly from 0.0024 to 0.0084, hinting towards dispersed and low-density development. Built-up land had a growth rate nearly 5 times higher than population, indicating urban sprawl. An evaluation of different landscape metrics revealed that the landscape of Rewari has lost land use diversity. The findings of this study offer information about the present state of urban growth. It also serves as a valuable resource for formulating comprehensive planning and development policies, ensuring the promotion of sustainable urban development.

Published: May 2024

A lucrative and delicious nonclimacteric tropical fruit, rambutan, has disadvantages of inadequate fruiting, low yield, and inferior edibility at farm level that need to be addressed. Moreover, unstable tropical temperatures and humidity threaten poor fruit set and insufficient rambutan yields. Therefore, the study revealed the effectiveness of gibberellic acid (GA3) on fruit set and retention, fruit size and yield, shelf life, and postharvest properties of rambutan under these atmospheric conditions. GA3 at concentrations of 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 ppm, apart from the control (without GA3), was applied to panicles twice in the early flowering and the early fruiting stages (thirty days after the first spraying). The results showed that maximum fruit set (223.2 per panicle), retention (13.2 per panicle, 5.9%), and yield (714.0 g per panicle) were obtained by GA3 treatment at 300 ppm. In addition to increasing fruit size (54.1 g) and pulp weight (31.3 g), GA3 at a dose of 300 ppm significantly reduced seed weight by 27.5% and increased the edible portion by 26.6% compared to the control. Notably, preharvest GA3 treatment increased TSS content (19.0%), total sugar (4.5%), and shelf life (11.5 days), while it decreased titratable acidity (0.4%) of rambutan. GA3 doses from 200 to 500 ppm had similar effects in terms of affecting the edible properties and shelf life of rambutan. However, fruit set, retention, and yield exhibited distinct dose-dependent responses, with 300 ppm being the best and 200 ppm consistent with the best, with some differences. Regression analysis showed a skewed curve explaining higher yield and better fruit quality at the medium GA3 treatment level (250–350 ppm). In comparison, lower (< 200 ppm) and higher (> 400 ppm) doses resulted in worse results in most cases. Therefore, regulated use of GA3 is necessary to improve rambutan yield and fruit quality.
Irbesartan ameliorates diabetic kidney injury in db/db mice by restoring circadian rhythm and cell cycle
Authors: Zhao Hailing , Li Zhiguo , Yan Meihua , Ma Liang , Dong Xi , Li Xin , Zhang Haojun , Li Ping
Published: May 2024

Background and Objectives

Irbesartan has been widely used in the clinical treatment of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). However, the molecular mechanism of its delay of DKD disease progression has not been fully elucidated. The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanism of irbesartan in the treatment of DKD.

Materials and Methods

C57BL/KsJ db/db mice were randomly divided into the model group and irbesartan-treated group. After treatment with irbesartan for 12 weeks, the effects on blood glucose, body weight, 24-h urinary albumin, and renal injuries were evaluated. Microarray was used to determine the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the renal cortex of mice. |Log FC| <0.5 and false discovery rate (FDR) <0.25 were set as the screening criteria. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), gene ontology (GO), protein–protein interaction (PPI) network and modules, and microRNA (miRNA)-DEGs network analysis were applied to analyze the DEGs. Furthermore, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to validate the results of microarray.

Results

The present study demonstrated irbesartan could significantly improve the renal function in db/db mice through decreasing 24-h urinary albumin and alleviating the pathological injury of kidney. Irbesartan may affect the expression of numerous kidney genes involved in circadian rhythm, cell cycle, micoRNAs in cancer, and PI3K–AKT signaling pathway. In the miRNA-DEGs network, miR-1970, miR-703, miR-466f, miR-5135, and miR-132-3p were the potential targets for irbesartan treatment. The validation test confirmed that key genes regulating circadian rhythm (Arntl, Per3, and Dbp) and cell cycle (Prc1, Ccna2, and Ccnb2) were restored in db/db mice on treatment with Irbesartan.

Conclusion

Generally, irbesartan can effectively treat DKD by regulating the circadian rhythm and cell cycle. The DEGs and pathways identified in the study will provide new insights into the potential mechanisms of irbesartan in the treatment of DKD.

Introdução: Pesquisas comprovam que uma boa alimentação tem um papel fundamental no tratamento de doenças. Por outro lado, uma dieta inadequada é reconhecida como um importante fator de risco para várias doenças. Atualmente, é incentivado o consumo de alimentos in natura, assim como também é mostrado os benefícios da alimentação adequada. Alimentação saudável pode ser resumida em três princípios: variedade, moderação e equilíbrio.  Praticar uma boa alimentação pode ser um desafio, sobretudo em comunidades mais carentes, como a maioria da população negra, uma vez que a baixa renda pode comprometer as escolhas alimentares, impactando diretamente na variedade e na qualidade nutricional.
Objetivo: Descrever o consumo alimentar habitual auto-referido da população negra do Recôncavo Baiano.
Método: Estudo realizado na Clínica Escola da Faculdade Adventista da Bahia, aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética da Faculdade Adventista da Bahia, conforme CAAE 45556221.4.0000.0042. Participaram do estudo 296 sujeitos, que atenderam aos seguintes critérios de inclusão: ser naturais e/ou que residem no Recôncavo Baiano a pelo menos dois anos, maiores de 18 anos e que tenham assinado o TCLE. Os dados foram coletados por meio de um questionário sobre questões alimentares e foram analisados no programa SPSS versão 20.0 e apresentados em forma de frequência simples e relativa.
Resultados (esperados/parciais): Dentre os 296 sujeitos participantes desta pesquisa, 247 indivíduos (83,4%) costumam realizar o café da manhã, 292 indivíduos (98,6%) costumam realizar o almoço, 257 indivíduos (86,8%) costumam realizar o jantar, cujas refeições tiveram os maiores percentuais de adesão. Quantos aos lanches, que também são orientados nos intervalos entre as principais refeições, percebe-se que, 82 indivíduos (27,7%) costumam realizar o lanche da manhã, 124 indivíduos (41,8%) costumam realizar o lanche da tarde, e 71 indivíduos(23,9%) costumam realizar a ceia, dentre eles, o lanche da tarde possui maior frequência. Os dados coletados apontam que 46 sujeitos (15,5%) realizam menos que três refeições diárias, indo contra o que o Ministério da saúde, através do Guia Alimentar para a População Brasileira, recomenda. Conforme o guia, são recomendadas pelo menos 3 refeições por dia, intercaladas com pequenos lanches. Para além de saber a quantidade de refeições praticadas, também são importantes estudos que mostrem a composição nutricional dessas refeições, de modo que a alimentação possa de fato ter um papel fundamental na saúde do indivíduo para a prevenção de doenças.

Authors: Silva Gomes Ana Flávia , Ferreira Dos Santos Joyce Kelly , Bezerra Ribeiro Sânzia
Published: May 2024

Introdução: A saúde do trabalhador rural tem-se tornado uma temática centrada na área da saúde pública, onde busca-se entender circunstâncias de trabalho que podem alterar o estado de saúde desses trabalhadores. Os trabalhadores rurais, exercem suas funções na informalidade, não havendo condições seguras de trabalho. Sendo assim, é observado que há um crescimento de danos à saúde, dos quais os principais distúrbios musculoesqueléticos relacionados ao trabalho em zona rural são dores lombares, perda de flexibilidade, tendinite e tenossinovite.
São escassas as condutas de promoção da saúde e prevenção de doenças no meio rural, ou seja, é necessário orientações e assistências para diminuir a realidade de adoecimento e afastamento por causa do trabalho. Nesse contexto, o fisioterapeuta é essencial na saúde do trabalhador rural, contribuindo na melhoria de tempo de trabalho e bem-estar, reduzindo afastamento trabalhistas, lesões e doenças ocupacionais.
Objetivo: Descrever as principais ações do fisioterapeuta na atuação da saúde de trabalhadores rurais.
Método: Trata-se de revisão narrativa da literatura, realizada em 2022. Para a seleção de produções foram feitas as pesquisas nas bases de dados eletrônicos: Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS) e na Scientific Electronic Library Online - SciELO. Foram utilizados os seguintes descritores padronizados pelos Descritores em Ciências da Saúde (Decs) em português e inglês e os operadores booleanos: Saúde da População Rural or Rural Health and Saúde Ocupacional or Occupational Health and Trabalhadores rurais or Rural Works.
A avaliação criteriosa desse estudo, foram seguidas 3 etapas: busca na literatura, leitura dos artigos para fazer a inclusão dos artigos que correspondiam ao tema e ao objetivo e interpretação dos resultados.

Expedient and Stereoselective Access to Diverse Alkaloid-like Scaffolds via an Oxidation/Double-Mannich Reaction Sequence
Authors: Mikan Charles , Watson Joseph , Walton Ryan , Waddell Paul , Knowles Jonathan
Published: May 2024

Sequential oxidative cleavage and double-Mannich reactions enable the stereoselective conversion of simple norbornenes into complex alkaloid-like structures. The products undergo a wide range of derivatization reactions, including a regioselec-tive enol triflate formation/cross-coupling sequences and highly efficient conversion to an unusual tricyclic-8,5,5 fused lac-tam. Overall, the process represents a formal 1-atom aza-ring expansion with concomitant bridging annulation, making it of interest for the broader derivatization of alkene feedstocks.
Hierarchical Transfer Learning: An Agile and Equitable Strategy for Machine-Learning Interatomic Models
Authors: Lindsey Rebecca , Oladipupo Awwal , Bastea Sorin , Steele Bradley , Kuo I-Feng William , Goldman Nir
Published: May 2024

Machine-learned interatomic models have growing in popularity due to their ability to afford near quantum-accurate predictions for complex phenomena, with orders-of-magnitude greater computational efficiency. However, these models struggle when applied to systems of many element types due to the near exponential increase in number of parameters that must be determined. To mitigate this challenge, we present a new hierarchical transfer learning approach that allows the fitting problem to be decomposed into smaller independent and reusable parameter blocks that enable development of explicitly chemically extensible ML- IAM. Application of this strategy is demonstrated for C and N mixtures under conditions ranging from nominally ambient to approximately 10,000 K and 200 GPa, and compositions from 0 to 100 % N. Ultimately, this strategy makes model generation for chemically complex systems more tractable and efficient, facilitates comprehensive model validation, and makes ML-IAM development for problems of this nature more accessible to users with limited access to extreme computing infrastructure.
Behind Closed Doors: The Untold Challenges of Transgender and Nonbinary Graduate Students in Chemistry
Authors: Nolan Michelle M. , Blythe Isaac M. , Vincent-Ruz Paulette
Published: May 2024

Transgender, nonbinary, two spirit, and gender-expansive students are marginalized in higher education and have significantly different college experiences than their cisgender peers. Using in-depth interviews modeled after Sista Circle methodology and applying reflexive thematic analysis, this qualitative research illuminates the nuanced experiences of transgender students navigating academia in chemistry graduate programs. Counterstories revealed tensions between participants’ identities as transgender people and as chemists, where STEM professional culture encouraged the participants to cover and separate their transness from their graduate studies. The results highlight disparities between institutional rhetoric and tangible support for transgender graduate students. From grappling with the absence of inclusive policies to the burdens of advocating for institutional change, participants confronted systemic barriers that impeded their academic and personal growth. This study underscores the imperative for transparent and proactive support structures within academic departments to foster an environment where transgender and nonbinary individuals can thrive. As the political landscape intensifies with escalating threats to transgender rights, this research serves as a clarion call for academia to confront and ameliorate the challenges faced by marginalized populations in STEM fields.
Selective copper-mediated cross-coupling of pyroglutamate post-translational modifications
Authors: Ding Yuxuan , Jiang Yuecheng , Serrat Nicolas , Ball Zachary
Published: May 2024

Pyroglutamate is a cyclic N-terminal posttranslational modifica-tion that occurs in both proteins and peptide hormones. The prevalence and biological roles of pyroglutamate are little under-stood, in part due to limited tools to identify, quantify, and ma-nipulate its pyrrolidinone structure. Selective modification of pyroglutamate residues in complex polypeptides may provide unique tools to better understand its biological roles, and to al-low late-stage diversification of biologically active pyrogluta-mate-containing sequences. This work describes a copper-catalyzed N–H cross-coupling of unprotected peptides that is selective for N-terminal pyroglutamate residues. The reaction is operationally simple under mild conditions, and tolerates almost all canonical residues. Mechanistic studies point to a key role for a multidentate copper-binding mode of the extended polypeptide structure in delivering the observed reactivity. The reaction al-lows direct labeling and identification of a pyroglutamate hormone present in porcine intestinal extracts.

The interfacial structures and mechanical response of the highly viscous poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS, 9750 mPa･s, Mn ~ 59000) on solid surfaces were investigated by frequency-modulation atomic force microscopy (FM-AFM) using a quartz tuning fork sensor. A layered density distribution on a PDMS/mica interface was visualized on a 29 h-settling sample by two-dimensional frequency shift (∆ƒ) mapping, and the result exhibited that the layered structure was metastable. It was also found that the damping coefficient of tip vibration (∆γ) increased in the region of ~1 nm from the solid surface, which suggests the limited mobility of the liquid molecules closest to the solids. After settling for more extended time or heating the sample, the layered density distribution was suppressed, and the conservative repulsive force near the solid surface in 2-3 nm were observed over longer distances by settling for a more extended time or heating. The suppression of the layered density distribution showed the similar temperature dependence with the bulk viscoelastic relaxation. In contrast, the elongation of conservative repulsive force near the solid surface showed steeper temperature dependence than the bulk, which suggests that it was rate-limited by the attraction between the solid surface and the closest liquid molecules.

Machine learning has found wide application in the materials field, particularly in discovering structure-property relationships. However, its potential in predicting synthetic accessibility of materials remains relatively unexplored due to the lack of negative data. In this study, we employ several one-class classification (OCC) approaches to accelerate the development of novel metal-organic framework materials by predicting their synthesisability. The evaluation of OCC model performance poses challenges, as traditional evaluation metrics are not applicable when dealing with a single type of data. To overcome this limitation, we introduce a quantitative approach, the Maximum Fractional Difference (MFD) method, to assess and compare model performance, as well as determine optimal thresholds for effectively distinguishing between positives and negatives. A DeepSVDD model with superior predictive capability is proposed. By combining assessment of synthetic viability with porosity prediction models, a list of 3,453 unreported combinations is generated characterised by predictions of high synthesisability and large pore size. The MFD methodology proposed in this study is intended to provide an effective complementary assessment method for addressing the inherent challenges in evaluating OCC models. The research process, developed models, and predicted results of this study are aimed at helping prioritisation of materials for synthesis.

Получены выражения для связи индекса металличности ξm с отношением модуля плотности потенциальной энергии электронов V к плотности кинетической энергии электронов G в связевой критической точке (BCP – Bond Critical Point) теории QTAIM (Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules) и значением функции локализации электронов (ELF – Electron Localization Function) в точке BCP. Найдено, что максимальная локализация электронов (ELFBCP = 1) достигается при ξmBCP=-4. Показано, что расчетных значений ξmBCP в области -4<ξmBCP<-1 не должно существовать. Для ряда простых молекул и кристаллов рассчитаны значения ξmBCP и проведен их анализ.

Specific features of the diet of competitive diving athletes
Authors: Gurina Tat'yana , Moradi Elena
Published: May 2024

Failure to adequately meet energy needs has an impact on the health and performance of divers. A restrictive diet that results in low energy also leads to micronutrient deficiencies, premature fatigue, frequent injury, and poor athletic performance. Athletes should consume nutrient-rich foods and fluids, and certain nutritional supplements may be recommended under medical supervision. Although sweat loss during indoor training is relatively small, divers should adhere to certain fluid intake strategies. A multidisciplinary sports medicine team should be an integral part of daily training, and appropriate foods and fluids should be available during long periods of training and competition.

Objective: To determine the frequency of patients developing ERM (epiretinal membrane) after surgical procedure for RRD. Study Design: Retrospective study. Setting: Department of Ophthalmology, Madina Teaching Hospital Faisalabad. Period: November 2021 to October 2022. Methods: Involving patients of primary RRD; 160 patients enrolled before the operation, each patient had both of their eyes assessed, and then again after one month, and then three months after the procedure. These assessments comprised a comprehensive ophthalmological evaluation, which consisted of slit-lamp biomicroscopy, OCT scans. On the basis of ERM formation, the participants were divided into two distinct groups. Age, gender, length of retinal detachment in days, existence of PVD, type of surgery done for RRD, and presence or absence of postoperative ERM were some of the demographic and clinical data that were obtained. Results: A total of 160 patients' data was evaluated, and 47 (29.4%) of them had ERM formation following RRD repair. No factor such as age, gender, side of the eye involved and type of surgery has any influence on the outcome of ERM as the p value <0.05. Conclusion: According to the results it can be concluded that ERM is a prevalent complication after SB and PPV surgery dome for RRD but no associations were seen with age, gender, side of the eye involved and type of surgery has any influence on the outcome of ERM.

Objective: To determine the frequency of anemia in carriers of Beta thalassemia Study Design: Retrospective Observational study. Setting: PAEC General Hospital, Islamabad, Pakistan. Period: 1st January 2022 to 30th June 2022. Methods: In this descriptive study, 131 carriers of Beta-thalassemia trait, diagnosed by hemoglobin electrophoresis on cellulose acetate membrane at alkaline pH, of any age and both genders were included. Complete blood counts were performed by hematology analyzer of Sysmex XN-1000 to determine hemoglobin level and red blood cell indices i.e. mean corpuscular volume. The studied parameters included hemoglobin and mean corpuscular volume as quantitative variables. Severity and type of anemia were the qualitative variables of this study and were expressed in terms of frequency and percentages. SPSS 19 version software was used for data analysis. Results: 131 carriers of Beta-thalassemia traits were included in study. 58 (44.27%) were males while 73 (55.73%) were females, male to female ratio being 1: 1.3. Of 131 beta thalassemia traits 67 (51.15%) were found to be anemic while 64 (48.85%) had normal hemoglobin for given age and gender. The mean corpuscular volume of anemic and non-anemics was 59.54+5.82 fl and 63.70+6.95 fl respectively. Mean hemoglobin level of anemic Beta-thalassemia traits was 9.42+1.05 g/dl while non-anemic patients was 12.12+1.39 g/dl. Conclusion: Burden of anemia among carriers of Beta-thalassemia traits is high. Understanding the prevalence of anemia in individuals with the trait is crucial for optimizing healthcare interventions and improving the quality of life for affected individuals.

O texto aborda o hackathon como um evento de inovação que tem ganhado popularidade nos últimos anos, seja no contexto educacional, seja no de empreendedorismo. Os hackathons são eventos colaborativos de curta duração, nos quais os participantes de diferentes áreas do conhecimento se reúnem para desenvolver soluções a um desafio específico. O objetivo desta pesquisa é realizar uma (re)leitura de comportamentos empreendedores experimentados por universitários participantes de hackathons, tendo como referência o metamodelo do processo de pensar através de uma visão, proposto por Filion (1993). O metamodelo de Filion identifica cinco elementos interconectados que são essenciais para o processo de pensar por meio de: cosmovisão, visão, energia, liderança e sistema de relações. A metodologia foi qualitativa, exploratória e bibliográfica. Os resultados apontam que o comportamento empreendedor é derivado da motivação que favorece a visão, energia, liderança, cosmovisão e sistemas de relações, essenciais para o desenvolvimento social, cultural e de negócios. A pesquisa aponta para a importância de eventos hackathon para o desenvolvimento do comportamento empreendedor e que pode ajudar os universitários a desenvolver habilidades empreendedoras, como criatividade, resolução de problemas, comunicação e liderança.

Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo investigar o grau de ansiedade dos alunos do curso de Ciências Contábeis diante do Exame de Suficiência. Utilizou-se uma abordagem quantitativa, descritiva e transversal para a realização da pesquisa, que foi aplicada em três instituições de ensino superior: uma estadual, uma federal e uma privada, focando nos concluintes, ou seja, no grupo que pode realizar o Exame. Para avaliar a ansiedade, recorreu-se à escala Idate-E, e a análise de variância (Anova) foi adotada para detectar possíveis discrepâncias entre os grupos das diferentes universidades. Os resultados indicaram que os alunos da universidade estadual apresentaram maior conforto ao prestar o exame, em contraste, os da federal foram os que demonstraram menor nível de nervosismo, tensão e agitação. Em oposição, verificou-se que os discentes da instituição privada eram os mais tensos, agitados e ansiosos. Este estudo oferece contribuições teóricas ao elucidar os desafios emocionais enfrentados pelos alunos durante o exame de suficiência, e práticas, ao sugerir estratégias de apoio aos estudantes a partir das descobertas.
