Moral Aqidah Learning Using Video-Based Technology
Authors: Nicholas Tsai , James Grub , Robert Kebede
Published: June 2023

There are lots of technologies that can be used in education. One of these technologies is video-based. Video is a visualization that can be used to facilitate the learning process, such as the Youtube application, where this application is beneficial for educators in developing video-based learning for moral theology learning media. With that in mind, this study aims to determine the benefits of video in learning moral theology. Learning moral theology often bored students because educators only use the lecture method without creativity to develop more effective and innovative learning. The type of method used in this research is quantitative by conducting surveys and interviews with teaching staff. The results of this study explain that video-based technology can help learn moral theology. This study concludes that educators can take advantage of videos for teaching moral principles based on evidence of student achievement and increased interest in learning, for this video-based technology can be used by any educator. The limitation of this research is that the researcher only researches moral theology subjects using video. The researcher hopes that future researchers will develop this strategy in other topics to get maximum results

O uso de plantas de cobertura, em cultivo solteiro e/ou consorciadas, pode ser uma estratégia para melhorar a qualidade do solo e a ciclagem de nutrientes no Semiárido brasileiro. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a produção de fitomassa e o acúmulo de nutrientes pela parte aérea sob diferentes sistemas de plantas de cobertura com cultivos solteiros e combinados de espécies gramíneas, leguminosas e plantas espontâneas, nas condições edafoclimáticas do Vale do Submédio São Francisco. Os tratamentos foram compostos por 7 sistemas de plantas de cobertura com cultivos solteiros e combinados de espécies gramíneas e leguminosas, e plantas espontâneas (Guandu: Cajanus cajan L.; Milheto: Penissetum americanum L.; Guandu + Milheto; Milheto + Sorgo: Sorghum vulgare Pers. + Guandu + Crotalária: Crotalaria juncea; Milheto + Milho: Zea mays L. + Sorgo + Guandu; Guandu + Crotalária + Feijão-de-Porco: Canavalia ensiformes + Milheto). Foram quantificadas as fitomassas fresca (FF) e seca (FS) da parte aérea, os teores de C e macronutrientes e calculados seus acúmulos. O cultivo de leguminosas e gramíneas como adubos verdes na entrelinha de mangueira irrigada mostrou-se eficiente em aumentar a FS e acumular nutrientes nos resíduos em comparação à vegetação espontânea. O coquetel vegetal com três leguminosas (Milheto + Guandu + Crotalária + Feijão-de-porco) apresentou maior capacidade de adicionar N ao solo. Já o cultivo solteiro ou consorciado de milheto foi uma estratégia eficiente para aumentar os estoques de C no solo. O cultivo de guandu solteiro não se mostrou uma alternativa para uso como adubo verde.

As Plantas Alimentícias Não Convencionais – PANC possuem significativo valor nutritivo por serem fonte de vitaminas, sais minerais, carboidratos e proteínas que podem fazer parte da dieta ao serem consumidas como alimento alternativo. Entretanto, de um modo geral, são pouco valorizadas e conhecidas como ervas ou “mato”.  Diante do exposto, o objetivo deste trabalho consiste em realizar um levantamento etnobotânico das espécies de PANC na Unidade de Conservação Reserva de Vida Silvestre Mata do Junco e comunidades do entorno em Capela/SE, ressaltando a importância das Plantas Alimentícias Não Convencionais quanto ao benefício na alimentação, podendo garantir a segurança alimentar e o direito da população a uma alimentação saudável, de forma digna e com cidadania, mantendo sua cultura alimentar. A metodologia utilizada nesta pesquisa empregou o levantamento das espécies de PANC na Unidade de Conservação Reserva de Vida Silvestre Mata do Junco, em Capela/SE e nas comunidades do seu entorno, com a identificação de 20 espécies, além de investigar o consumo e/ou cultivo pelas comunidades do entorno da mata. Para atingir esse objetivo, foram realizados os seguintes procedimentos metodológicos: aplicação de questionários e realização de entrevistas semiestruturadas com membros das comunidades do entorno da Unidade.  Apesar de serem conhecidas pela maioria dos entrevistados, estes informaram que não utilizam as espécies na alimentação. Conclui-se que a falta de divulgação, a facilidade de acesso às comidas industrializadas, além do preconceito, são fatores que contribuem para a não utilização dessas plantas pelos moradores das comunidades estudadas.

A determinação do teor de carbono em diferentes espécies florestais é essencial para subsidiar discussões sobre a certificação de serviços ambientais. Este estudo teve por objetivo quantificar o teor de carbono em diferentes compartimentos das espécies Bertholletia excelsa Humb. & Bonpl., Dipteryx odorata (Aubl.) Willd. e Khaya grandifoliola C. DC. em sistema integrado no oeste do Pará. A pesquisa foi realizada na Fazenda Nossa Senhora de Aparecida, no município de Mojuí dos Campos, PA. Cada talhão contando uma espécie arbórea foi implanto em oito linhas, com espaçamento de 7 m x 5 m. Entre cada talhão, foi deixado uma área com distância de 166 m, para introdução de culturas anuais e forragem, onde os animais pastejam a pleno sol. Os dados de carbono foram obtidos a partir de abate (derrubada) de 10 árvores de cada espécie para contabilizar folhas, galhos finos e fuste. Um total de 30 amostras de cada espécie foram transportadas para o Laboratório de Tecnologia da Madeira (LTM), da Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará (Ufopa), para realização da análise elementar. Os dados obtidos foram tabulados no Excel 2013, e as análises estatísticas foram realizadas no Sisvar, versão 5.8. Testes estatísticos foram realizados para avaliar normalidade de Shapiro-Wilk, análise de variância (ANOVA) e teste Scott-Knott, em nível de significância de 5%. Ao comparar o teor de carbono nas três espécies, verificou-se que o cumaru se destacou das demais. Observou-se que o teor de carbono na B. excelsa foi elevado nas folhas, contendo em média 50,68% e no nome científico D. odorata (52,14%). K. grandifoliola armazena o maior teor de carbono no fuste (49,01%). As diferenças estatísticas detectada nos teores de carbono entre os componentes das espécies analisadas reforçam que é necessária quantificar, separadamente a contribuição de cada componente como estratégia de valoração ambiental, principalmente em se tratando de pagamento por serviços ambientais.

Published: June 2023

Introduction: Considering the process linked to working conditions, nursing professionals are exposed to situations that can increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Objective: To evaluate the prevalence and factors associated with masked hypertension (MHT) in nursing professionals. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of 182 nursing professionals. Office blood pressure measurement and 24-hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) were applied during a usual workday using Spacelabs 90207. An interview was conducted to evaluate biopsychosocial related to work and life habits variables. Fasting venous blood was drawn for biochemical analysis. MHT was defined as office blood pressure (SBP/DBP) ≤140/90 mmHg and mean daytime ABPM ≥ 135/85 mmHg and non-use of antihypertensive treatment. Poisson regression with robust variance was used to examine the relationship of MHT with associated factors. Results: The prevalence of MHT was 19.8% (95% confidence interval:15.67-23.93). The nursing professionals with masked hypertension had significantly higher than no MH: mean 24-hour, daytime, and nighttime systolic/diastolic BP in the ABPM. HMT was associated with age (1.06; 95%; confidence interval: 1.03-1.10) and shift work (2.18; 95%; confidence interval: 1.10-4.31). Conclusions: There was a high prevalence of MHT, and these outcomes were associated with age and shift work.

O presente artigo em forma de ensaio aborda os avanços, perspectivas e desafios da logística reversa do óleo lubrificante. O óleo lubrificante é um produto indispensável na área automotiva e industrial e seu consumo acarreta a geração de óleo lubrificante usado ou contaminado (OLUC). A gestão sustentável dos resíduos do OLUC torna-se um desafio à sociedade, pois não se limita apenas a aspectos ambientais, mas também sociais e econômicos. A Resolução Conama nº 362 de 2005 e a Lei Federal nº 12.305 de 2010 são as normativas mais relevantes que tratam sobre a obrigatoriedade da reciclagem do óleo usado. Nesse sentido, por meio de levantamento teórico sobre o tema, buscou-se identificar e discutir as principais barreiras enfrentadas no cenário brasileiro para reaproveitamento de seu resíduo pós-consumo. O estudo mostrou que fatores geográficos, fiscais, regulatórios e questões culturais interagem e contribuem para dificultar a ampliação da logística reversa no setor.

No momento que se pensa em incluir se pensa em direitos humanos. Educação inclusiva há de se convir que se refere à inclusão dos “excluídos”, dos diferentes, aqui focamos no sujeito surdo, muitos deles maus vistos pela produção capitalista. Desta forma quando se reflete a cerca de um mercado de trabalho que inclui e valoriza os diferentes, se tem como base uma escola emancipatora e equitativa, que oferece conhecimento para este sujeito avance em suas potencialidades. Sendo que um dos principais debates neste artigo é sobre a inserção na educação escolar do sujeito diferente/surdo e, por conseguinte no mercado de trabalho.

Authors: Орлова Анастасия Сергеевна , Orlova Anastasiya Sergeevna
Published: June 2023

В работе сравнивается стандартный чисто жадный алгоритм с его модификацией - чисто жадным алгоритмом по паре словарей. Доказано, что в некоторых случаях чисто жадный алгоритм по паре словарей может сходиться за конечное число шагов, в то время как стандартный алгоритм по каждому словарю в отдельности на каждом шаге имеет ненулевой остаток. Установлено, что возможна и обратная ситуация. При сравнении чисто жадного алгоритма по паре словарей и чисто жадного алгоритма по их объединению также реализуемы обе вышеописанные ситуации. Для скорости сходимости показано, что чисто жадный алгоритм по паре словарей в некоторых случаях быстрее, а в некоторых случаях медленнее чисто жадного алгоритма по каждому словарю в отдельности.

Published: June 2023

Background. Distal humeral fractures are notorious injuries, and they require surgical fixation. The reliability of reconstruction devices has been a subject of debate. Our primary outcome was to detect differences, if any, between two different groups of patients using the patient-reported outcomes measurement information system (PROMIS) Global-10 form and to compare it with the Mayo elbow performance score (MEPS) results. Other secondary outcomes included the difference in union time between patients who received a reconstruction plate vs those who received a pre-contoured anatomical plate. Material and methods. It is a prospective randomised study which included a total of 30 cases equally distributed into two groups. Results. The mean PROMIS and MEPS scores for group A were 31.5 SD 6.6 and 77.7, respectively, compared to 33.7 SD 6.66 and 73, respectively, for the other group. Time to union was 13.4 weeks for group A and 12.6 weeks for the other group. There was no statistically significant difference between the groups regarding union and function. However, reconstruction plates were more cost effective. The correlation between the MEPS and PROMIS G scores in both groups was statistically significant. Conclusion. No superiority of one method of fixation versus the other was demonstrated in terms of patient-related outcomes. Reconstruction plates are a cost-effective alternative in simple fracture patterns.

Published: June 2023

The aim of this work was to prepare and characterise geopolymer composites containing lightweight aggregates - perlite and vermiculite.The geopolymer matrix was prepared on the basis of fly ash, sand and a 6M sodium hydroxide solution with sodium silicate. The properties of the materials were tested 28 days after the preparation of the samples. The following research methods were used to characterise the composites: compressive and flexural strength tests, microstructural tests using a scanning electron microscope, and thermal conductivity were measured.The results obtained showed a slight effect of the additives on the strength properties. Lightweight aggregates are characterised by good coherence with the matrix material. Their addition allowed to reduce the density and lowered the thermal conductivity of the materials. The results obtained indicate that the proposed additives can improve the properties of the geopolymer composite for use in the construction industry.Further research should focus on geopolymer composites with perlite and involve fire-resistant and water-absorption tests.The production of lightweight building materials brings a number of benefits, such as reducing the density of building elements and, at the same time, the entire structure, which results in a reduction in their weight, as well as lower transport costs. Such elements have better thermal and acoustic insulation, reflected in the parameters of buildings. An additional advantage is the reduced environmental impact through better insulation properties, lower fuel consumption during transport, etc.The density of the material can be reduced by using lightweight aggregates or obtaining porous material in the foamed process. In the case of geopolymer composites, a number of studies related to foamed materials have been provided, but there is only a few previous research connected with lightweight aggregates such as perlite and vermiculite.
Statistical methods in the analysis of strength parameters of epoxy-glass composites modified with rubber recyclate
Authors: Drewing S. , Abramczyk N. , Żuk D. , Dyl T.
Published: June 2023

The article presents a statistical analysis of strength parameters of newly developed epoxy-glass composite materials modified with the addition of rubber recyclate.Three variants of materials with a percentage of recyclate content in the composite matrix of 3%, 5%, 7% and a reference variant without the addition of recyclate were used for the study. The samples were subjected to an impact test on a ZWICK RKP 450IR-GE impact hammer. Resilience measurement values were subjected to statistical analyses at the significance level = 95%, such as: testing the normality of distributions with the Shapiro-Wilk test, testing differences between pairs with the Student's t-test for dependent groups, and testing ANOVA differences for independent groups.The Shapiro-Wilk test confirmed that the resilience variables for all tested samples were in normal distributions; therefore the highest power parametric tests were used to test the differences. Using the Student's t-test, it was confirmed that between pairs of variables in configurations: standard sample with the modified sample, there were significant statistical differences in the distribution of resilience values for all samples. ANOVA confirmed significant changes in impact strength in 10 comparison variants.The obtained test results showed that in 9 compared cases, there were significant statistical differences, and in one case, there were no significant differences.The performed statistical analyses confirmed their significant usefulness in the process of qualification of strength parameters for materials with high anisotropy, such as composites.The manufactured products are innovative in terms of the method of using the addition of rubber recyclate as a filler for epoxy-glass composites. The use of static methods for their study also has practical value. It optimizes the analysis methods of the results of measurements of strength parameters of new composite materials.
PERCEPÇÃO DA DISCRIMINAÇÃO RACIAL: NUANCES E ESPECIFICIDADES DENTRO DA POPULAÇÃO NEGRA BRASILEIRA
Authors: Freitas Alan Araújo
Published: June 2023

O presente estudo tem como questão central abranger um universo maior da pesquisa sobre a percepção da discriminação existente em virtude da questão racial. Para isso, foi pesquisada a percepção da discriminação entre os negros brasileiros, que, no critério do IBGE, são as pessoas que se autodeclaram pretas e pardas. Da mesma maneira, foram avaliadas questões físicas dos indivíduos, como seus índices de massa corporal (IMC). Um indivíduo preto e magro percebe, de maneira geral, a discriminação policial do mesmo modo que uma pessoa parda e obesa? Como fica essa correlação e outras no mercado de trabalho? Os resultados apontaram que existe uma diferença na percepção das vítimas acerca da discriminação proveniente dos poderes policiais e presente em alguns mercados de trabalho. Homens pretos, altos e magros percebem maior discriminação policial e no mercado de trabalho do que homens pardos, baixos e obesos, o que pode representar que a alcunha generalizante “negro” é, de fato, demasiadamente genérica para denotar as especificidades que existem dentro de uma categoria geral pouco específica. A percepção da discriminação social por parte da população negra no Brasil não é a mesma: a pele mais clara ou mais escura, o corpo mais magro ou obeso, são matizes significativos para uma compreensão não homogeneizadora da questão da percepção da discriminação social.

Published: June 2023

Phytoplankton are organisms that are sensitive to environmental changes and their presence can be used as an indicator of aquatic productivity. Physical factors in the waters can affect the abundance of phytoplankton. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between physical factors (temperature, brightness, TDS and TSS) and the abundance of phytoplankton. Phytoplankton sampling was carried out at 7 stations by purposive random sampling in Menjer Lake including 7 sites of the tourism areas, floating net cages, near agricultural areas, the middle of the lake, spring sources, inlets of the Serayu River and outlet areas. The variables measured were temperature, light penetration, TSS and TDS concentration as well as the composition and abundance of phytoplankton. The results of this study obtained 6 species of phytoplankton, namely Ceratium sp., Dictyosphaerium pulchellum, Microcystis aeruginosa, Microspora sp., Nitzschia sp., and Pediastrum sp. The highest abundance of phytoplankton is Microcystis aeruginosa and temperature in related to season has a strong effect on the abundance of phytoplankton.

Published: June 2023

ACKGROUND AND AIMS: The prevalence of chronic hepatitis C in Switzerland is currently estimated at approximately 32,000 affected individuals (0.37% of the permanent resident population). An estimated 40% of affected individuals in Switzerland is undiagnosed. The Swiss Federal Office of Public Health requires laboratories to report all positive hepatitis C virus (HCV) test results. Approximately 900 newly diagnosed cases are reported annually. The number of HCV tests performed, however, is not collected by the Federal Office of Public Health and positive rates are therefore unknown. The aim of this study was to describe the longitudinal course of the numbers of hepatitis C antibody tests and of positive rates in Switzerland for the years 2007 to 2017.

METHODS: Twenty laboratories were asked to provide the number of HCV antibody tests performed and the number of positive antibody tests per year. Using data from the Federal Office of Public Health reporting system for the years 2012 to 2017, we calculated a factor to correct our values for multiple tests of the same person.

RESULTS: The annual number of HCV antibody tests performed tripled linearly from 2007 to 2017 (from 42,105 to 121,266) while the number of positive HCV antibody test results increased by only 75% over the same period (from 1360 to 2379). The HCV antibody test positive rate steadily decreased from 3.2% in 2007 to 2.0% in 2017. After correction for multiple tests per person, the person-level HCV antibody tested positive rate decreased from 2.2% to 1.7% from 2012 to 2017.

CONCLUSION: In the Swiss laboratories considered, more HCV antibody tests were performed each year in the period (2007–2017) before and during the approval of the new hepatitis C drugs. At the same time, the HCV antibody positive rates decreased, both on a per-test as well as a per-person level. This study is the first to describe the evolution of tests performed and of positive rates for HCV antibody in Switzerland at the national level over several years. In order to more accurately guide future measures to achieve the goal of eliminating hepatitis C by 2030, we recommend annual collection and publication of positive rates by health authorities, along with mandatory reporting of numbers of tests and people treated.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Chronic hepatitis B infection (defined as sustained detection of hepatitis B virus [HBV] surface antigen [HBsAg] protein in serum) is a leading cause of cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma and liver-related deaths. A situation analysis carried out by the Swiss Federal Office of Public Health estimated the HBsAg prevalence in Switzerland to be 0.53% (95% CI: 0.32–0.89%) in 2015 (~44,000 cases). A lower prevalence of chronic HBV in the younger generation and the adoption of universal coverage in the first year of life are expected to decrease the burden of HBV; however, a number of people in key populations (including migrants) remain undiagnosed and untreated, and infected individuals remain at risk of progressing to cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma and death. Our primary objective was to examine the current and estimate the future disease burden of HBV in Switzerland and the impact of migration. The secondary objective was to estimate the impact of changing future treatment numbers.

METHODS: A modelling study was performed using an existing, validated model (PRoGReSs Model) applied to the Swiss context. Model inputs were selected through a literature search and expert consensus. Population data from the Federal Statistical Office were used alongside prevalence data from the Polaris Observatory to estimate the number of HBV infections among people born abroad. The PRoGReSs Model was populated with and calibrated to the available data and what-if scenarios were developed to explore the impact of intervention on the future burden of disease. A Monte Carlo simulation was used to estimate 95% uncertainty intervals (95% UIs).

RESULTS: In 2020, there were an estimated 50,100 (95% UI: 47,500–55,000) HBsAg+ cases among people born abroad. Among people born in Switzerland, there were approximately 62,700 (UI: 58,900–68,400) total HBV infections (0.72% [UI: 0.68–0.79%] prevalence). Prevalence among infants and children under the age of 5 were both <0.1%. By 2030, prevalence of HBV is expected to decrease, although morbidity and mortality will increase. Increasing diagnosis (90%) and treatment (80% of those eligible) to meet the global health sector strategy on viral hepatitis programme targets could prevent 120 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma and 120 liver-related deaths.

CONCLUSIONS: Thanks to the historical vaccination programmes and the continued rollout of universal 3-dose coverage in the first year of life, Switzerland is expected to exceed the global health sector strategy targets for the reduction of incidence. While overall prevalence is decreasing, the current diagnosis and treatment levels remain below global health sector strategy targets.
Facilitators and Barriers to Nurses Screening for Frailty in Acute Care in a Provincial Health-Care System: a Survey Study Guided by the Theoretical Domains Framework
Authors: France Janessa , Lalonde Michelle , McIsaac Daniel , Squires Janet , Backman Chantal
Published: June 2023

Background
Older adults living with frailty represent the largest population of hospitalized patients in Canada, but they do not always receive the quality of care needed. Nurses are well-positioned to screen for frailty, but current frailty screening practices are poorly understood.
Methods
A cross-sectional survey study was conducted over a six-week period with nurses from Alberta, Canada working in acute care with older adults. Demographics were descriptively reported. Frailty screening methods were quantified on 5-point frequency scales, reported descriptively and compared by practice area using linear regression. The top-five mean scores from a 43-item, 6-point Likert-type questionnaire based on the Theor-etical Domains Framework were compared by practice area.
Results
Frailty screening by clinical impression was “usually” used (median = 4, IQR = 4-5), while tools were “rarely” used (median = 2, IQR = 1-3). Medical and/or surgical nursing had higher general frailty screening tool use (β = 0.81, r = .31, p < .001), but no significant (p > .05) differences for using clini-cal impression, or preference of screening method. The top facilitator was the disbelief that frailty screening negatively impacts relationships with older adults. The top barrier was belief that conducting frailty screening was routine. Nursing practice area influenced frailty screening beliefs.
Conclusions
There is an opportunity to implement frailty screening tools into the nursing practice of Alberta’ nurses working in acute care. Frailty screening tools that become routine have greater likelihood for utilization. Nursing practice areas may have unique situations that require tailored approached to tool implementation.
A Management Control oriented Governance Framework for Artificial Intelligence
Authors: Sentinella Richard , Schnegg Maël , Möller Klaus
Published: June 2023

In an age of increasing access to and power of artificial intelligence (AI), ethical concerns, such as fairness, transparency, and human well-being have come to the attention of regulators, standard setting bodies, and organizations alike. In order to build AI-based systems that comply with new rules, organizations will have to adopt systems of governance. This study develops, based on existing frameworks and a multiple case study, a governance framework specifically designed with these challenges in mind: The St. Gallen Governance Framework for Artificial Intelligence focuses on identifying stakeholder concerns and strategic goals, building a management control system, assigning roles and responsibilities, and incorporating dynamism into the system of governance.
