Authors: Chalita Cristiane Damasceno de Oliveira , Camacho Alessandra Conceição Leite Funchal
Published: May 2024

This work aims to analyze the effectiveness of a training program on medication preparation and administration using realistic simulation as a teaching method for healthcare professionals already working in clinical practice. This is a retrospective study with a quantitative approach through the analysis of evaluation forms applied during the training sessions, conducted in a medium-sized private hospital in Rio de Janeiro. On average, the professionals performed 75% of the expected actions during the training. Among them, “Disinfection of the preparation area,” “Explanation of the procedure to the patient/accompanying person,” and “Hand hygiene after the procedure” were performed by 100% of the participants during the simulation. The less frequently performed actions included “Patient identification,” “Flushing the line before administration,” and “Correct labeling of the syringe.” The simulation proved effective as it allowed the practice of procedures in a safe and controlled environment, as well as guided reflection through post-simulation debriefing techniques, stimulating the development of critical thinking and specific skills related to the subject.

A pneumonia continua sendo uma das principais causas de morbidade e mortalidade em todo o mundo, representando um desafio significativo para os sistemas de saúde. A necessidade de internações devido a essa doença respiratória aguda é uma realidade frequente, especialmente entre os grupos vulneráveis, como idosos, crianças e pessoas com condições médicas subjacentes. A pandemia de COVID-19 desencadeou uma crise de saúde global, afetando milhões em todo o mundo. Um dos desafios mais significativos enfrentados pelos sistemas de saúde durante esse período foi o aumento das internações por pneumonia, uma complicação frequentemente associada à infecção pelo coronavírus. A avaliação da incidência das internações desempenha um papel crucial na identificação de disparidades de saúde. Ao analisar dados epidemiológicos relacionados às internações por pneumonia, é possível identificar grupos populacionais que estão em maior risco e que podem se beneficiar de intervenções direcionadas. Isso é essencial para garantir que os recursos sejam alocados de forma equitativa e que todas as comunidades tenham acesso igualitário aos cuidados de saúde. O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a influência da COVID-19 nas internações causadas por pneumonia no Brasil. Este é um estudo de séries temporais, que usou dados do Sistema de Informações Hospitalares (SIH) do DATASUS. Essa fonte abrangente oferece uma visão detalhada das internações causadas por pneumonia no Brasil. Nesse estudo, demostramos um aumento de 2% nas internações causadas por pneumonia no Brasil, com o sudeste sendo responsável pela maioria das internações e custos hospitalares. Além disso, identificamos que homens pardos, com 80 anos ou mais, foram os principais afetados. O aumento das internações por pneumonia é um indicador preocupante que requer atenção imediata tanto dos profissionais de saúde quanto das autori-dades responsáveis pela saúde pública.

Authors: Kim Da-Ran , Jeon Chang-Wook , Kwak Youn-Sig
Published: May 2024

Soybean (Glycine max), a crucial global crop, experiences yearly yield reduction due to diseases such as anthracnose (Colletotrichum truncatum) and root rot (Fusarium spp.). The use of fungicides, which have traditionally been employed to control these phytopathogens, is now facing challenges due to the emergence of fungicide-resistant strains. Streptomyces bacillaris S8 strain S8 is previously known to produce valinomycin t through a nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) pathway. The objective of this study was to evaluate the antifungal activity of S. bacillaris S8 against C. truncatum and Fusarium sp., assessing its efficacy against soybean pathogens. The results indicate that strain S8 effectively controlled both above-ground and underground soybean diseases, using the NRPS and NRPS-related compound, suggesting its potential as a biological control in plant-microbe interactions. These findings underscore the pivotal role of the stain S8 in fostering healthy soybean microbial communities and emphasize the significance of microbiota structure studies in unveiling potent biocontrol agents.

Authors: Ahn Mun-Il , Yang Hyeon-Ji , Yun Sung-Chul
Published: May 2024

K-Maryblyt has been developed for the effective control of secondary fire blight infections on blossoms and the elimination of primary inoculum sources from cankers and newly emerged shoots early in the season for both apple and pear trees. This model facilitates the precise determination of the blossom infection timing and identification of primary inoculum sources, akin to Maryblyt, predicting flower infections and the appearance of symptoms on various plant parts, including cankers, blossoms, and shoots. Nevertheless, K-Maryblyt has undergone significant improvements: Integration of Phenology Models for both apple and pear trees, Adoption of observed or predicted hourly temperatures for Epiphytic Infection Potential (EIP) calculation, incorporation of adjusted equations resulting in reduced mean error with 10.08 degree-hours (DH) for apple and 9.28 DH for pear, introduction of a relative humidity variable for pear EIP calculation, and adaptation of modified degree-day calculation methods for expected symptoms. Since the transition to a model-based control policy in 2022, the system has disseminated 158,440 messages related to blossom control and symptom prediction to farmers and professional managers in its inaugural year. Furthermore, the system has been refined to include control messages that account for the mechanism of action of pesticides distributed to farmers in specific counties, considering flower opening conditions and weather suitability for spraying. Operating as a pivotal module within the Fire Blight Forecasting Information System (FBcastS), K-Maryblyt plays a crucial role in providing essential fire blight information to farmers, professional managers, and policymakers.

Flow, Fear, and Classroom Modality: Student Experiences in a University Environmental and Sustainability Film Course
Authors: Everett Michael W , Eustice Crystal L
Published: May 2024

When the words climate change, environment, and sustainability are used in conversations today, they typically elicit engaging conversations among the current generation of university students. One common thread among these conversations is that students are looking to course faculty for answers as their fears are cause for concern. The purpose of this research was to determine if relationships existed between students in an environmental and sustainability film course through the modality in which they took the course, level of fear, and whether individuals exhibited flow experiences during the course. Fear and flow are socio-psychological constructs related to individuals having: (a) a level of fear or concern related to a specific instance or event in time, and (b) a perceived level of skill associated related to an activity (e.g., watching a film) and a level of challenge that individuals have that is associated with the same activity. Results indicate that occurrences of flow most often occurred in the online modality of learning by students. Additionally, fear levels corresponded to flow occurrences in by online modality students. This case study supports previous research that fear, and flow can be positive experiences for students when considering pedagogical practices in teaching and learning.

Effect of fluoxetine on serum sodium levels in patients with depression
Authors: Balu Saraswathi , G Sasikala , G Dharani
Published: May 2024

Background: One common selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) used to treat depression and other mood disorders is fluoxetine. Hyponatremia, or low serum sodium levels, is one of the side effects of fluoxetine and other selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), despite their effectiveness in reducing depressed symptoms. Regular monitoring of serum sodium levels is essential to prevent and manage these side effects.

Aim and Objectives: The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the changes in serum sodium levels in patients with depression taking fluoxetine in different age groups (18–45, 46–70 years) and to evaluate the adverse effects between the two age groups.

Materials and Methods: This prospective observational study involved 110 depressed patients who were divided into two age groups, 18–45 and 46–70 years old, and who attended a psychiatric outpatient department at a tertiary care hospital. Before starting fluoxetine therapy as well as in the first and third weeks afterward, serum sodium levels were tested, and adverse effects were noted. Between the two age groups, serum sodium level changes and other side effects were compared.

Results: The serum sodium levels in the 46–70-year-old age group significantly dropped at the first and third weeks following therapy, whereas in the 18–45 year-old age group, the decrease in serum sodium levels occurred only after the 3rd week of therapy (P = 0.0005). At the 3rd week of therapy, 46–70-year-old serum sodium levels were substantially lower than those of 18–45-year-old patients (136.6 vs. 140.5, P = 0.0005), and only older patients had hyponatremia after the 1st and 3rd weeks of therapy. The P value is highly statistically significant (< 0.01).

Conclusions: Fluoxetine can lower serum sodium levels, which are more common and clinically evident in the 46–70-year age group than in the 18–45-year age group. In the first few weeks of fluoxetine medication, monitoring serum sodium levels is advised, especially for patients in the 46–70 age group.

¿Autonomía o independencia?
Authors: Herrera Ríos Miguel
Published: May 2024

La noción de independencia es central a los debates de las ciencias sociales sobre la justicia en Ecuador y en América latina. Vista, en términos generales, como la posibilidad que tienen los jueces de actuar según sus propias preferencias, se trata de un tema estructurante de la producción académica. Investigar sobre la justicia es, en gran medida, procurar dar una respuesta a la pregunta si es independiente o no. Sin embargo, la noción no deja de presentar algunas dificultades conceptuales. Estas dificultades son tanto metodológicas como analíticas y normativas. Por consiguiente, el artículo argumenta en favor de una discusión crítica en torno a la noción de independencia, e incluso su reemplazo por conceptos alternos como el de autonomía.
MACDONALDIZATION AND DISNEYIZATION AS GLOBALIZATION TRENDS
Authors: GRECHKOSІI Ruslan
Published: May 2024

The article explores the dimensions of the social phenomenon of McDonaldization, introduced into scientific circulation by sociologist George Ritzer. Using the principles established by the McDonald's fast food corporation as a metaphor, Ritzer delves into the consequences of rationalization and standardization observed in modern society. McDonaldization serves as a catalyst for larger-scale social transformations, spreading the process of globalization and generating the phenomenon of Disneyization in all areas of human activity. It is determined that the McDonaldization drive for efficiency and control leads to the «irrationality of rationality» in various aspects of modern human life. Benjamin Barber's concept illustrates strategies for the development of a globalized culture in which McWorld and Jihad coexist and interact, impeding the development of democratic processes, but each in its own way. The article reveals the nature of Disneyization and its implementation in the globalization narratives of our time. The emergence of the McDonald's and Disneyized worlds emphasize the spread of the logic of consumerism, which plays a key role in the formation of a new world order with an emphasis on universalization, predictability and control of all social processes that fall into the project. Disneyization is defined as a transformative force that embellishes reality, emphasizes compliance with consumer norms, and distorts historical narratives by making them simplistic. The trivialization and sanitization of media products are the next stages in the evolution of the McDonaldized and Disneyized world, which gives rise to hybrid consumption and the desire to expand the territory of influence. The findings of this study contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the impact of McDonaldization, which is not limited to the fast food industry but extends to social, educational, artistic, political, economic, and other spheres. The interconnection of McDonald's with related phenomena, such as Disneyization, allows us to take a fresh look at the development of modern society.
FORESIGHT PROJECTS AS A FACTOR IN THE FORMATION OF STUDENTS' LEGAL BEHAVIOUR IN AN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION IN THE CONTEXT OF THE HUMANISATION OF THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS
Authors: IIEVLIEV Oleksandr , DOKTOR Davyd
Published: May 2024

The article highlights the issues related to the use of foresight projects for the formation of students' legal behaviour in an educational institution in the context of the humanisation of the educational process. The article analyses scientific and methodological works on the peculiarities of using the project method in educational institutions. It is established that students' work on projects contributes to the development of independence, activity, research skills, a sense of belonging to the world community, awareness of professional choice, creative and social development, and the formation of critical thinking skills. Working on a project in an educational institution, regardless of its didactic purpose, shapes the student's future behavior in personal and professional terms, and therefore a trajectory that can be predicted. It is believed that the term «foresight» was first used by science fiction writer H.G. Wells in 1930 in one of his public speeches. The writer proposed to introduce the profession of a «professor of foresight», who, like a historian, would analyze and propose options for the practical implementation of future discoveries. The use of foresight projects in the educational process of an educational institution allows to shape the legal behavior of students, implementing the strategy of humanization of education. At the same time, such behavior is regulated by the content of the relevant legal acts. According to the research of domestic scholars, the implementation of the main provisions of humanization of education requires the use of modern pedagogical methods of humanistic educational activities, ensures the development of the student's personality, and is a guarantee of improving the quality of education and increasing its competitiveness at the international level. It is believed that the degree of humanization of the educational process depends on the extent to which this process creates the preconditions for self-development of the individual, his/her self-realization and creativity. The article deals with the foresight project «I am a future teacher». «I am a future teacher of accounting and economic disciplines», «The path to academic integrity». It is noted that traditional information-oriented, social, creative and other types of projects can also serve as foresight projects.
LINGUODIDACTIC PRINCIPLES OF DEVELOPING PROFESSIONAL COMPETENCE FOR SIMULTANEOUS INTERPRETATION TEACHERS
Authors: KANEVSKA Olga , ZOLOTYI Bohdan
Published: May 2024

This article identifies and describes the language teaching principles for the formation of professional competence in simultaneous interpretation teachers. An analysis of domestic and foreign theoretical and practical research reveals that the problem of developing professional competence for simultaneous interpretation teachers, despite its undeniable significance, is still in the early stages of study. In the scientific, pedagogical, and translation discourses, the search for effective solutions has only just begun. Determining the linguodidactic principles of preparing translation teachers in general and forming their professional competence provides the basis for a comprehensive study of this complex issue. It is established that the professional competence of a translation teacher is an integrative characteristic of personality, which presupposes the formation of a complex of necessary competencies for effective pedagogical and translation activities, including various components of pedagogy and translation, and pedagogical communication within the framework of intercultural communication. The professional competence of a simultaneous interpreter is a complex formation that includes both general translation competencies, reflecting the main functions of translation activities, and specific competencies necessary for oral interpretation, including the simultaneous one (as readiness and ability to perceive and understand the oral speech of communicators from different cultures, to transmit it by the communication situation, genre, style, and register; ability to immerse oneself in situations of interlingual and intercultural interaction; ability to activate necessary competencies for translation and teaching activities; readiness for enriching communicative experience while mobilizing already developed skills and abilities; capacity for reflection and self-reflection). Linguodidactic principles of developing professional competence for simultaneous interpretation teachers are defined, taking into account the interdisciplinary nature of this process, namely: pedagogical, translation studies, linguistic, and psychological principles, without which it is impossible to organize the training process for future specialists qualitatively.

A vacinação infantil é essencial para prevenir doenças infecciosas e proteger a saúde das crianças, mas à adesão ao calendário de vacinação pode ser desafiadora. Este artigo apresenta uma revisão da literatura que investiga o papel dos enfermeiros na promoção da adesão à vacinação infantil. Através de uma busca abrangente em bases de dados eletrônicas, foram identificados estudos relevantes que abordam o envolvimento dos enfermeiros nesse contexto. À análise dos estudos selecionados revelou que os enfermeiros desempenham múltiplos papéis na promoção da vacinação infantil, incluindo a prestação de educação sobre vacinas, administração de vacinas, promoção da conscientização e apoio às famílias. Estratégias eficazes utilizadas pelos enfermeiros incluem o uso de abordagens educacionais baseadas em evidências, o estabelecimento de relações de confiança com as famílias e o envolvimento comunitário. No entanto, vários desafios foram identificados, como a falta de recursos, a desinformação sobre vacinas e as disparidades no acesso aos serviços de saúde. A revisão destaca a importância dos enfermeiros na promoção da adesão à vacinação infantil e destaca a necessidade de apoio contínuo e investimento em programas de vacinação liderados por enfermeiros para garantir a saúde e o bem-estar das crianças. Este estudo proporciona visões enriquecedoras para profissionais de saúde, gestores de políticas e pesquisadores interessados em melhorar a cobertura vacinal e reduzir as taxas de doenças infecciosas em crianças.
Juventudes, a universidade é para todos? A importância do engagement estudantil no ensino superior, aspectos da realidade para a não evasão
Authors: Maldonado Luciene , Capulo Sabrina
Published: May 2024

Este artigo possui em sua intencionalidade trazer à discussão um tema de muita relevância na contemporaneidade na qual enfrentamos uma redução qualitativa e quantitativa no acesso a Educação. As reduções das políticas públicas, fortemente atingidas por políticas neoliberais impactam, não somente, no processo de ensino e aprendizagem, mas na permanência do estudante na Universidade. Nesse compasso a Educação em nível Superior continua sendo ainda inacessível à juventude pobre e, os poucos que conseguem acessá-la, têm grandes dificuldades em manter-ser, em cumprir a demanda exigida e em concluir o curso com qualidade. Deste modo, intentamos fornecer elementos que auxiliem nas reflexões sobre as complexas relações que se estabelecem entre os jovens pobres e a Universidade, sobretudo, a importância do engagement estudantil para a não evasão. Os apontamentos que apresentamos são oriundos das experiências docentes das autoras em escolas da rede pública de ensino com as Juventudes de ensino médio. Denota-se que o mesmo jovem pobre que possui dificuldades na sua permanência escolar, também encontrará uma dificuldade ainda maior em sua permanência universitária. Desse modo, consideramos engagement estudantil uma ação que possa corroborar com o desempenho integral desse estudante, sendo entendido como um construto de desempenho para a coletividade universitária num todo. Também utilizado como um possível balizador para avaliar o desempenho do ensino e aprendizagem, além de caracterizar sua importância para a condição de manutenção dos estudantes nas universidades. A relação juventude-universidade, a condição docente e a gestão universitária, são consideradas aportes fundamentais do engagement estudantil no ensino superior.

Campomanesia pubescens (gabiroba) is a fruit tree that is native to the Cerrado and that has commercial potential and medicinal properties. It has recalcitrant seeds that do not tolerate desiccation and storage. Here, C. pubescens plants were grown in vitro under different light qualities. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were used at wavelengths for white (W) and blue in combination with red in the proportions BR (1:1), BR (1:3) and BR (3:1), at 100 ± 5 μmol m-2 s-1 over a 16-hour photoperiod. The leaf anatomy, chlorophyll a fluorescence, chloroplast pigments and malondialdehyde (MDA) content were evaluated. Studies on Cerrado plants grown in vitro focusing on light quality and its effects on plant development and growth are scarce. Records of anatomical and physiological C. pubescens characteristics when grown in vitro under different lighting qualities using LEDs are nonexistent. In this context, the aim of this study was to analyze the anatomical and physiological responses of C. pubescens seedlings from in vitro cultivation under different light qualities, to support future studies on the propagation and conservation of this species. This work is a pioneer for this species. When the plants were cultivated in combinations of blue/red LEDs 1:1 and 3:1, they yielded higher biomass, presenting higher epidermis and chlorenchyma values with greater stomatal density and functionality, better photosynthetic efficiency, higher Y(II) values, qP and higher total chlorophyll concentrations, and thus these lights did not cause oxidative damage compared to the white (control) LEDs. This study contributed to a better understanding of the anatomical and physiological changes in C. pubescens plants grown in vitro under different light qualities. C. pubescens plants exhibited varied anatomical and physiological characteristics depending on the spectrum of light used here. The combinations of BR (1:1) or BR (3:1) LEDs are promising for the propagation of the species, given their positive influence on most of the studied traits.

Background: Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, is a global health concern that significantly impacts the quality of life. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate health-related quality of life and the factors associated with it in hypertensive patients across the physical, psychological, social, and environmental domains.
Methods: A cross-sectional investigation was conducted involving 503 public school teachers from Herat province of Afghanistan. The World Health Organization Quality of Life Bref 26 (WHOQOL-BREF 26) questionnaire was used to assess quality of life of participants. Each participant's blood pressure was assessed twice. Participants with a systolic blood pressure of 140 mmHg or higher, a diastolic blood pressure of 90 mmHg or higher, or both, were classified as having hypertension.
Results: Of the 503 participants, 23.5% of them had hypertension. Age group, gender, and aware of hypertension were significantly associated with presence of hypertension. Physical domain, psychological domain, and social relationship domain were significantly associated with prevalence of hypertension.
Conclusion: This study underscores the significant impact of hypertension on the health-related quality of life among Afghan school teachers. Effective management strategies targeting physical, psychological, and social health are essential to mitigate the adverse effects of hypertension. Further research should explore the role of cultural and occupational factors in shaping the quality of life in this population.
