Authors: Corrêa Francini P. Poliseli , Trevisani Ana Paula , Zamboni Alessandra Silva Quadros
Published: June 2022

Nas diferentes áreas do saber, em contexto de internacionalização, a geração e difusão do conhecimento científico para a promoção da cidadania, da democracia e da diversidade cultural e do desenvolvimento humano e sustentável, em nível local e global, estão intrinsecamente relacionadas aos letramentos acadêmicos em línguas adicionais. Entendendo letramentos acadêmicos como as habilidades necessárias que precisam ser desenvolvidas para se agir no contexto acadêmico (LEA; STREET, 1998), este artigo apresenta o mapeamento das iniciativas referentes às ações de letramentos acadêmicos em língua inglesa em ementas de cursos da Universidade Estadual do Paraná (UNESPAR). O referencial teórico condutor deste trabalho são as categorizações de modelos de letramento delineadas por Lea e Street (1998). Esta pesquisa apoiou-se no método misto sequencial exploratório (TASHAKKORI; CRESWELL, 2007), com procedimentos de análise interpretativa, dedutiva e indutiva, considerando particularidades contextuais. Os dados foram coletados por meio da 1) busca de ementas em PPCs de cursos da Unespar; 2) análise das ementas em relação a termos associados às categorizações de modelos de letramento (LEA; STREET, 1998; 2014). Os resultados das análises revelam escassas ações de letramentos voltadas para a língua inglesa, o que indica a necessidade de projetos que atendam às demandas de letramentos acadêmicos nesse idioma.

Authors: Sturião dos Santos Campana Katiucy , Ramos Ferreira Curan Gabriela , Giovanini Rossetto Edilaine , Lima Colinete Costa Letícia , Fernandes da Silva Lorena Maria
Published: June 2022

Objetivo: sistematizar as produções disponíveis sobre aplicativos para smartphones voltados para promover a amamentação de bebês prematuros. Método: revisão de escopo realizada em setembro e outubro de 2019 nas bases: CINAHL, MEDLINE, Scopus e PubMed. Não houve delimitação de idioma ou temporal. Além da busca pela produção científica acerca dessa temática, foram investigadas as plataformas de download dos dois sistemas operacionais de smartphones hegemônicos – Google Play Store (Android) e Apple App Store (iOS). Em março de 2020 foram refeitas as buscas replicando a mesma estratégia para verificar se os protocolos incluídos haviam originado novas publicações, bem como identificar novos estudos ou protocolos. Resultados: a busca resultou em 764 documentos, dos quais dois artigos e três protocolos foram incluídos na revisão. O número de estudos encontrados confirma a escassez de produção científica sobre apps especificamente voltados para a população de prematuros, apesar de apontarem uma atual tendência em incorporar esse recurso para o apoio ao aleitamento materno. Não foram encontradas diferenças nas taxas de sucesso de aleitamento materno mediante utilização de tais recursos, quando comparadas com a assistência presencial. Destaca-se a necessidade de mais estudos avaliando diferentes propostas de aplicativos e em cenários diversos para avaliar a efetividade desse recurso tecnológico para complementar o cuidado convencional. Conclusão: as produções disponíveis sobre apps para o apoio ao aleitamento materno de bebês prematuros são muito escassas. Considera-se insuficiente o corpo de informações disponíveis para a avaliação do efeito desse tipo de recurso para promover o aleitamento materno junto a esta população.

Objetivo: Avaliar o potencial hidrogeniônico e o volume salivar antes e depois do uso da goma de mascar mentolada em voluntários saudáveis. Método: Estudo quantitativo, quase-experimental do tipo pré-teste e pós-teste, realizado com 45 voluntários saudáveis entre 18 e 60 anos. A amostra da saliva foi coletada de forma não estimulada, seguindo o método de spitting. O voluntário deveria acumular saliva na boca e cuspir num frasco milimetrado, a cada minuto, antes e depois de receber a goma de mascar mentolada, por dez minutos em cada etapa. Resultados: Na primeira etapa da coleta, a média do potencial hidrogeniônico foi de 7,06, aumentando para 7,42 (p<0,001) após a segunda etapa. O volume salivar subiu de 5,95ml para 23,13ml (p<0,001). Conclusão: O uso da estratégia após oito horas de jejum provocou elevação do potencial hidrogeniônico e do volume salivar. Este aumento de volume salivar não apresenta relevância clínica para broncoaspiração.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and outdated risk factors are some of the increasing chronic comorbidities for people living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLHIV), leading to poor cardiovascular outcomes. Health systems in Namibia are not responding adequately to this problem by identifying risk factors when screening clients for antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation. Despite effortsto ensure integration of CVDs data management into existing ART platforms, incomplete disease surveillance and record-keeping remain prominent drawbacks for data managers. Hence the challenge to produce tangible evidence on relationships between human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and cardiovascular diseases.This study aimed to determine perceptions of healthcare workers regarding data management practices useful in integrated CVD-related preventive care services to PLHIV.A qualitative approach with phenomenological study design incorporating Strauss and Corbin’s grounded theory approach was implemented. Thirteen key informants were purposively selected and interviewed. Data was transcribed verbatim, exported to ATLAS.ti and analysed by generating themes,quotes and networks. Five themes related to data management practices regarding CVDs and its risk factors in the context of HIV at targeted health facilities have been identified. They include monitoring exposure to CVDs risk factors; measuring health outcomes of those risks; handling of risk factors data, and how to use data for decision making in response to CVDs among PLHIV.
Workshop for weight reduction in obese arthritis patients: A report
Authors: Pandey Preeti
Published: June 2022

Musculoskeletal disorders are characterized by pain and loss of physical function in the body, which limits a person's activities and restricts their participation in society. Emerging evidences indicates that obesity may also have a profound effect on soft tissue structures, such as tendon, fascia and cartilage. Excess weight puts added stress on joints, particularly knees, causing pain and worsening arthritis damage. Therefore lose weight in case of obese arthritis patient is equally important as the part of their disease management. But obesity intervention typically results on early rapid weight loss followed by a weight plateau and progressive regain. That's why treatment of obesity requires ongoing clinical attention and weight maintenance specific counselling to support sustainable healthful behaviors and positive weight regulation. We report here about a recently conducted workshop which was focused upon effective weight reduction strategies useful for arthritis patients. This workshop was first of its kind conducted across the prevailing rheumatology practice prevailing in the country.

Published: June 2022

INTRODUCTION: The present study was aimed at comparing the clinical characteristics of DVT patients with and without DM. The risk of venous thromboembolism appears to be elevated in both type 1 and type 2 diabetic patients. Hyperinsulinemia, which is often present in type 2 diabetes has been shown to have a prothrombotic effect as well. Doppler ultrasonography serves as reliable, non-invasive and rapid investigation to detect DVT. Therefore helping in the early detection of DVT in clinically suspected patients. On USG, findings in favour of DVT are non-compressible venous segment with loss of phasic flow on Valsalva, shows absent colour flow if completely occlusive and lack of flow augmentation with calf squeeze and increased flow in superficial veins.
OBJECTIVES: To assess and analyze the colour Doppler findings and to evaluate the site, extent and stage of lower limb deep vein thrombosis in diabetic as well as non-diabetic patients.
METHODS: Present observational comparative study was conducted in the Department of Radio-diagnosis of tertiary level care.
CONCLUSION: Incidence of deep vein thrombosis in diabetic and non-diabetic patients differs, however it is not statistically significant. Anatomic localization of the thrombus revealed that common iliac, external iliac, common femoral, femoral and popliteal vein involvement was more common among diabetics as compared to non-diabetics.
RESULTS: Total 36 patients were enrolled in this study of this 21 were diabetic and 15 were non-diabetic. The incidence of DVT was found to be 21% among diabetics and 15% among non-diabetics.
A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW ON WOUND DRESSING USAGE IN CLINICAL SETTINGS
Authors: Sonar Sanjay , Kumar Naveena , Ali Nasheed , Moharana Ashok , TS Deepak
Published: June 2022

Wound repair is a complex phenomenon of dermal and epidermal tissue regeneration, consisting of several phases including haemostasis, inflammation, migration, proliferation, and remodelling. The wound management procedures have evolved from ancient times that used honey, plant fibres, and animal fats to biopolymers. With the emergence of modern wound dressings, the wound healing process has been accelerated with extraordinary properties of dressing material. The dressings material contacts with the wound and provides optimal conditions, for example, moist environment, absorption of excessive exudates, and permeability to gaseous exchange, etc., for healing. The main purpose of dressing is to stop the bleeding, prevention of exsanguination, protection from infection, and renewal of function. With the myriad of dressing types available in the clinical settings such as hydrogels, hydrocolloids, alginates, and anti-microbial-impregnated dressing, etc., the understanding behind the usage of a particular dressing for a specific wound type remains conjectural. In this comprehensive review, we first discussed the wound repair process in brief followed by wound dressing, characteristics of ideal wound dressing, and its categorization. This review aims to provide a state-of-the-art overview of different aspects of wound dressing type contributing to the effective treatment of particular skin wounds.
Study of pattern and time-reaction sequence for adverse drug reactions reported to antiretroviral drugs
Authors: Murthy Mangala , Jagtap Krishna , Pore Shraddha , Murthy Bhaskar , Shinde Amar , Burute Shreyas
Published: June 2022

Background: Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) to antiretroviral drugs have a varied pattern and wide spectrum of severity from mild to very serious. The lack of a pre-established time-reaction sequence hampers the causality assessment of ADRs. Recognition of pattern of ADRs to antiretroviral drugs in a particular setup might sensitize the reporters to report ADRs, especially in setups dependent on spontaneous reporting.

Aim and Objectives: The study of pattern and time-reaction sequence for ADRs reported to antiretroviral drugs.

Materials and Methods: Retrospective study was conducted at a first-line antiretroviral therapy (ART) center after obtaining approval from the Institutional Ethics Committee. Pattern of ADRs associated with ART was done by analyzing the type of ADRs, severity, and outcome of ADRs reported to antiretroviral drugs. Mean duration of time lapse between administration of drug to onset of adverse drug reaction was calculated. Descriptive statistics was used for data analysis.

Results: There were 73 adverse reactions reported. Most common type of adverse reaction was cutaneous (53.42%) followed by anemia (31%). Causality assessment of most ADRs was concluded as possible (60.27%). Most ADRs were of moderate severity and 12% were severe reactions. Reactions such as anemia and neuropsychiatric ADRs often occurred late, while maculopapular rash usually occurred within 30 days of drug administration.

Conclusions: ADRs to ART include an array of reactions ranging from mild rash to psychosis or severe anemia. Most of these reactions are of moderate severity and have a favorable outcome. Many of these reactions actually occur almost a month after initiating a drug regime suggesting the need for intensive monitoring around this time.
Theoretical inhibitor Calculation for Synthesis of Two New thiazole Derivatives
Authors: KOPARIR Pelin
Published: June 2022

Abstract: Two newly thiazole (1-(4-(3-methyl-3-phenylcyclobutyl)thiazol-2-yl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)thiourea and 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-(4-(3-methyl-3-phenylcyclobutyl)thiazol-2-yl)thiourea were synthesise. The molecular formula was characterized using Fourier-Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR). Theoretical vibration was calculated using Gaussian 09W software, and corrosion inhibiting activity was calculated using quantum chemical calculations. Furthermore, the GaussView 5.0 package on the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) method was used to calculate the energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital (EHOMO), the energy lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (ELUMO)the energy gap (E = ELUMO - EHOMO), the dipole moment (µ), and the percent of transmitted electrons (ΔN). Based on the results of inhibitor activity, other molecular properties such as hardness (ɳ), softness (σ), and electronegativity (χ) were calculated. Quantum chemical calculations were used to predict the corrosion inhibiting activities of the derivatives. As a result, the corrosion inhibitor behavior can be predicted without the need for an experimental study. The results show a strong relationship between organic-based corrosion inhibitors and the process's quantum chemical parameters.
Are Performances Broadcast Online Theatrical Performances? – Once Again on the Structural Differences Between the Stage and the Screen (Part Two)
Authors: Hristakiev Krasimir
Published: June 2022

This article is an attempt to bring clarity to the recent disputes concerning the nature of theatrical art on the occasion of the general closure of theatres after March 2020 (as an anti-epidemic measure in the COVID-19 crisis) and the alternative broadcasts of online performances. For a number of theoretical and practical reasons, and on the basis of various examples, we maintain the understanding that, with each shooting and broadcasting of a theatrical production, a process of approaching the cinema begins. The erasure of its own theatrical quality occurs at the beginning of the process.

The Right to Good Administration – An Effective Path to Good Governance
Authors: Georgieva Atanaska
Published: June 2022

In today’s global society, achieving good governance is unthinkable without ensuring and affirming the right to good administration. It received its legitimate recognition for the first time in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. This Community act covers rights resulting from citizenship, but it is not limited to them. With it, the EU seeks to strengthen the protection of fundamental human rights by building on the achievements of society. It can therefore be argued that the acquis communitaire builds on the existing global legislation in this regard, including the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. The global COVID crisis has strengthened the role of the state, and hence of public authority, in public and socio-economic life. Thus, the issue of the importance and role of good governance in the public sector has to come to the forefront of public attention. The right to good administration was gradually established as an important moment for achieving good governance on a national and international scale.

The article substantiates that the process of implementing flood monitoring and forecasting will optimize the process of preparing for the onset of high water, determining the composition, deadlines and other features of preventive measures for timely and prompt notification of the population about the risk of flooding of the territory. The scientific study presents the results of forecasting the volume of spring flood runoff using regression analysis. The predicted values calculated using correlation and regression analysis of multidimensional data (multiple regression equation) showed fairly close values with the actually observed values, with a satisfactory correlation over a long-term period (R=0,76 for Yesil – Turgen; R=0,72 for Yesil – Nur-Sultan). The conclusion is made that the most simple methods of analysis and prediction of runoff are used in terms of the quality of the forecast information provided are not inferior to the forecasts obtained using complex physically based models.
Commodification and Objectification of Women in Shahid Nadeem’s Plays Kala Meda Bhes (Black is My Robe) and Dukhini (Woman of Sorrow)
Authors: Haroon Maria , Khalil Amna
Published: June 2022

The study explored and discussed the commodification and objectification of women in Shahid Nadeem’s plays Kala Meda Bhes (Black is My Robe) and Dukhini (Woman of Sorrow). Both the plays presented the accurate picture of deep-seated discriminatory sociocultural and patriarchal traditions where men have the position of authority and esteem whereas women are considered subordinates, submissive and weak. In his plays, Shahid Nadeem introduced a vast range of female characters in challenging circumstances where women act as puppets and men act as their masters. Men and women, are assigned different gender roles in Pakistan due to biological essentialism and social constructionism and the clash between the two, was the primary cause of women’s sufferings in a male dominated society. Women are chattels who are attained in the name of marriage to serve men throughout their lives. The male dominated social system is built upon traditional hierarchies where men have put themselves on top and women are given the lower position. The present study discussed that women are objects for exchange with a trade value and are not treated as respectable human beings. They are subjects to physical, mental, emotional and psychological violence.

Cattle Producers and Climate Change Conversations: Assessing Workshop Effectiveness in Preparing Communicators to Discuss a Contentious Scientific Topic
Authors: Wandersee Cassie , Telg Ricky , Smith David , Mukhtar Saqib
Published: June 2022

Climate change and the resulting impacts on agriculture in the U.S., specifically cattle production, are of great concern to educators in Extension and other organizations. Extension has used a deficit model of communication to extend research information to audiences with the goal of changing behavior by simply providing information. Dialogic models that utilize two-way communication have proven to be more effective when communicating about contentious scientific issues. This study examined the effectiveness of a one-day workshop, focused on cattle production and climate change, on increasing attendees’ level of comfort when talking about climate change with their clientele. Attendees indicated the workshop increased their level of comfort in facilitating the application of research, hosting programs, and delivering presentations that cover the topic of climate change. Sessions that focused on climate data, trending data over time, and manipulations of data were most beneficial. Making workshop content personally relevant to the attendees’ professions increased their comfort with material and their ability to share knowledge with cattle producers. Delivery of the material was also a very important factor in preference for the sessions. Future workshops should incorporate dialogue training and role-play, so educators will feel more prepared to discuss climate change with their clientele.
Translating Policy, Systems, and Environmental Change for Use in the Family Context
Authors: Yelland Erin L. , Bates James S.
Published: June 2022

Theorists argue that emphasizing changes to the policies, systems, and environments in which individuals live has more economical and sustainable impact on human health than interventions targeted directly to individuals (Kegler et al., 2015). We believe, however, that the ecology of the family remains an essential context for influencing individual behavior and contend it crucial that family life educators acknowledge the impact of family-level health-improvement initiatives. As such, we propose a behavior-change model for the family context that reflects the impact of interconnected family rules (policy), family relationships (systems), and the home (environment) on individual behavior, and acknowledge the underlying philosophical values that influence decisions about development, well-being, and health (see Figure 1; Bates & Yelland, 2018). Although the four framework concepts are interrelated, each can be conceptualized and operationalized uniquely. Future research will delineate techniques for evaluating how changes to family rules, family relationships, and the home impact human health.
Dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates under anharmonic trap
Authors: Al-Jibbouri H.
Published: June 2022

The dynamics of weakly interacting three-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs), trapped in external axially symmetric plus anharmonic distortion potential are studied. Within a variational approach and time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation, the coupled condensate width equations are derived. By modulating anharmonic distortion of the trapping potential, nonlinear features are studied numerically and illustrated analytically, such as mode coupling of oscillation modes, and resonances. Furthermore, the stability of attractive interaction BEC in both repulsive and attractive anharmonic distortion is examined. We demonstrate that a small repulsive and attractive anharmonic distortion is effective in reducing (extending) the condensate stability region since it decreases (increases) the critical number of atoms in the trapping potential.
Charge and electric field distributions in the interelectrode region of an inhomogeneous solid electrolyte
Authors: Kravtsiv I. , Bokun G. , Holovko M. , Prokopchuk N. , di Caprio D.
Published: June 2022

A solid ionic conductor with cation conductivity in the interelectrode region is studied. Due to their large size, the anions are considered fixed and form a homogeneous neutralizing electric background. The model can be used to describe properties of ceramic conductors. For a statistical mechanical description of such systems, which are characterized by short-range Van der Waals interactions and long-range Coulomb interactions, an approach combining the collective variables method and the method of mean cell potentials is used. This formalism was applied in our previous work [Bokun G., Kravtsiv I., Holovko M., Vikhrenko V., di Caprio D., Condens. Matter Phys., 2019, 29, 3351] to a homogeneous state and in the present work is extended to an inhomogeneous case induced by an external electric field. As a result, mean cell potentials become functionals of the density field and can be described by a closed system of integral equations. We investigate the solution of this problem in the lattice approximation and study charge and electric field distributions in the interelectrode region as functions of plate electrode charges. The differential electric capacitance is subsequently calculated and discussed.
Effect of hydrostatic pressure on dynamic dielectric characteristics of CsH2PO4 ferroelectric
Authors: Vdovych A. S. , Levitskii R. R. , Zachek I. R.
Published: June 2022

Based on the pseudospin model of the deformed CsH2PO4 crystal within the Glauber method, the equation for the time-dependent mean value of the pseudospin is obtained, which is solved in the case of small deviations from the equilibrium state. Using the solution of the equation, we find expressions for the longitudinal dynamic dielectric constant and relaxation time. Based on the proposed parameters of the theory, the temperature and frequency dependences of the dynamic dielectric constant and the temperature dependence of the relaxation time are calculated and investigated. A detailed numerical analysis of the obtained results was performed. The influence of hydrostatic pressure on the dynamic characteristics of CsH2PO4 is studied.

Published: June 2022

With increasingly modern technology, advanced and flexible functions, compact design, and low cost, drones are recently used in many fields with different effective purposes. Unlike beneficial applications, hostile forces leverage drones to explore the terrain, carry illegal explosives, and so on. Those applications can seriously threaten national security and defense. To prevent illegal drones effectively, we apply deep neural networks to detect the illegal drones in a variety of conditions and different sizes of drones. Accordingly, a computer-based system using modern cameras combined with an algorithmic model can solve the complex drone detection problem. Therefore, an emerging complex neural network approach based on YOLOv5 is proposed in this paper. With the method, we achieve a very expected result (confidence of 0.993 @0.5IOU), which meets the requirements of the drone detection problem.

Bread was enhanced with defatted moringa seed flour in various quantities (0-7.5%) in this investigation. The functional properties of the flour and the physical, proximate, mineral content and sensory attributes of the defatted moringa fortiﬁed bread samples were evaluated. The functional properties of the defatted moringa seed flour showed Bulk Density (0.75g/ml), Oil Absorption Capacity (88.45 %), Reconstitution index (76.28 %), Swelling index (8.25 g/vol), Solubility (8.63 %), Viscosity (342.60 cp), and Water Absorption Capacity (82.45 %). Results of the proximate analysis showed that defatted moringa seed flour addition signiﬁcantly (p < 0.05) increased the protein (13.82–15.39%), fat (1.25–1.56%), ash (1.51–1.61%) and ﬁbre content (0.13–0.18%) of the bread samples, while the moisture (7.85–7.60%), carbohydrates content (75.44–72.88%) and pH (8.05-7.8%) of the bread decreased. Addition of defatted moringa seed flour significantly (p<0.05) decreased the loaf heights from 10.50 to 6.90 (cm), loaf weights from 133.1 to 118.0 (g), loaf volumes from 1148 to 671(cm3) and the specific volumes from 9.05 to 5.55 (g/cm3). The mineral contents (calcium, Iron, Sodium, potassium, and Phosphorus) of the moringa fortiﬁed bread also increased signiﬁcantly as the proportion of defatted moringa seed flour. Results of the sensory evaluation indicated that the 5% defatted moringa fortiﬁed bread was not signiﬁcantly different from the bread produced from 100% wheat ﬂour in terms of most of the quality attributes evaluated in this study. In conclusion, fortiﬁcation of bread with defatted moringa seed flour increased both the micro and macronutrient of conventional bread and acceptable to consumers at 5% fortiﬁcation level.

This study seeks to highlight the best of the Western models in the field of university endowments. It is a model that has been ensconced at the top of the educational pyramid in the United States and Europe for decades. This is due to the management, the investment methodologies and board policies adopted in this model regarding its holdings, investments and disbursements during the past decade. The exemplar of this model is Harvard University, one of the strongest scientific and academic universities in the United States of America; in fact, in the world. It is renowned for its academic strength and financial independence thanks to its endowments, which continue to manifest clear, strong growth. There is no doubt that the approach adopted by the University during the past decade has been very clear, especially in the area of protecting its endowment assets and in reducing expected losses in the area of investments of its endowment assets. This has been done by adopting the investment methodology and performance policies of the Governing Council, in addition to the exceptional performance of its arm for attracting new endowment assets and donations over the last decade. To discuss this experience, the research looks at the financial sustainability criteria adopted by the University to preserve its endowment assets and how the University deals with the risks that beset them. It has itself suffered several investment losses in its endowment assets, as is evident from the company's annual investment management reports. In addition, the University's endowment governance structure with regard to transparency, governance, and internal and external monitoring of its financial assets are discussed. There is no doubt that Harvard’s endowment experience has been pursuant to the endowment activity that has prevailed in several American and European universities, as well as those of Canada, Japan, Singapore and other countries. However, the most prominent and best in performance and investment are the American universities, which have benefited from the legislation in the United States in support of the phenomenon of endowments for the benefit of university education. The study will be limited to Harvard University, while taking into consideration the practical factors that led to the rise of the educational endowment phenomenon in the American university sector in the last two decades. This is approached through two subtopics. The first comprises the most prominent indicators of financial safety of endowment entities. The second is Harvard University Endowments as a model for financial sustainability.

Los deslizamientos y desprendimientos son un peligro común en áreas montañosas como los Pirineos. Aun así, en ocasiones han sido poco estudiados por la dificultad de acceso y, por tanto, la dificultad en la adquisición de datos, y la baja densidad de población en estas zonas. La Tartera de Cambrils, en la comarca del Solsonès, Cataluña, es un canchal producto de antiguos deslizamientos y desprendimientos de roca que ponen en peligro infraestructuras del pueblo de Cambrils, con una concurrencia creciente debido al incremento de actividades turísticas en la zona. Este estudio quiere determinar los procesos que causaron los deslizamientos iniciales, los procesos que ocurren en la ladera hoy en día y los factores que los causan. Para cumplir este objetivo, se ha consultado información bibliográfica y se ha llevado a cabo trabajo de campo para construir una cartografía geológica y geomorfológica, y se han adquirido datos LiDAR, con un Escáner Laser Terrestre, y fotografías del talud. Con los datos LiDAR y las fotografías se producen nubes de puntos tridimensionales, a partir de las que se estudian las discontinuidades y se analiza la estabilidad del talud. La continuidad, buzamiento y separación de la estratificación y la fracturación de la roca, dificultan el deslizamiento planar de bloques de roca y, por el contrario, facilitan el deslizamiento en cuña y el vuelco. El análisis de las discontinuidades permite estimar la posibilidad de futuros desprendimientos de roca sobre las distintas infraestructuras y proporciona datos fundamentales para planear futuras medidas de protección.

The biological agent most likely to be used as a biological weapon is Bacillus anthracis, which causes the anthrax infectious disease. During the Cold War, it was present in large quantities in the military arsenals of some states, and at the beginning of the 21st century was used in a series of small bioterrorist attacks. In case of occurrence of events using Bacillus anthracis, urgent and adequate qualitative and quantitative response measures are needed to manage the consequences of the attack and to reduce the effects on public health. These include complex and well-coordinated activities to ensure medical intervention for the prophylaxis, treatment and recovery of patients. General prophylaxis is achieved by vaccination, individual and collective CBRN protection, decontamination, partial and total sanitary treatment, microbiological analysis for the detection, identification and confirmation of the biological agent. Therapy for disease induced by weaponized B. anthracis differs from classic antrax disease regarding antibiotics, doses and time, resulting a large antibiotic consumption per case. Complete recovery of the patients is achieved not only in terms of restoring normal biological parameters, but also in terms of the organism’s "sterilisation" regarding the causal biological agent.

The novel coronavirus, identified in December 2019, has caused a pandemic that will remain in the medical literature as SARS-CoV-2, the etiological agent of the Covid-19 disease. It was initially stated that this disease would not be more serious than the flu, in terms of prevalence, frequency of complications and mortality. Although in the country of origin the epidemic was only local, the virus spread successively to other countries, until it quickly spread to all inhabited continents and was declared a pandemic. Being a new disease and a new virus, the world panicked. The World Health Organization released guidelines to member countries, which they have implemented. Because the disease sped out of control, it became not only a health crisis but also a socio-economic one. A year later, we are still facing this disease, about which we have learned a lot but not yet all that is necessary and so the time has come for a certain summing up. The Covid-19 pandemic is a reality of current times, the year 2020 being portrayed as the "COVID year". The international scientific community has shown that, when needed, it can collaborate beyond classical barriers. Statistics show that the virus is not very aggressive, the disease is not very serious but there are also serious, sometimes fatal complications to which appropriate measures must be applied. The risk of serious illness and life-threatening complications is statistically reduced over time, the disease being less severe now than at the beginning, so it is on a downward slope.
