Determinants of cyclists' willingness to comply with mixed traffic provision and to ride on the carriageway rather than the pavement
Authors: Hantschel Sebastian , Schröter Bettina , Gerike Regine
Published: September 2024

Stakeholders in many municipalities worldwide are committed to promoting cycling and improving cycling provision. Scarcity of space is a major issue in most of these cities, particularly for main streets with significant movement and place functions. Multiple demands exist on these streets, including moving pedestrians, cyclists, motorised vehicles, parking, people waiting at public transport stops, or staying in the street for place activities. Mixing cyclists and motorised vehicles in the same space in the carriageway might be the only possible solution for cycling provision in these contexts, which is applied in many German cities. The aim of this study is to evaluate the acceptance of cycling in mixed traffic, which we measure as the proportion of cyclists riding on the carriageway versus on the pavement. The empirical work in this study is based on video observations at 273 study sites with a total length of 124 km located in 13 cities in Germany. 260 of these study sites have no marking for cyclists, and 13 have bicycle pictograms. A total of 34 874 cyclists are recorded at these study sites. A logistic regression model is used to quantify the effect of exposure and infrastructure characteristics on the proportion of cyclists on the carriageway. Volumes of motorised vehicles, lane widths > 3.00 m and city type show a significant negative effect on the acceptance of cycling on the carriageway. Cyclist volumes, bicycle pictograms, and a speed limit < 50 km/h significantly increase the likelihood of cycling on the carriageway. The model is then applied to develop evidence-based recommendations on appropriate conditions for mixed traffic provision for cyclists, ensuring pre-defined levels of acceptability. Cycling in mixed traffic without bicycle pictograms should only be recommended with traffic volumes of a maximum of 400 vehicles per hour and a speed limit of < 50 km/h to achieve a proportion of cyclists on the carriageway of 90%. The marking of bicycle pictograms increases acceptance.

Published: September 2024

Article including, fabrication of a greatly effective catalyst consisting of ZnFG nanocomposite was studied using an in situ preparation method from specific weights of ZnO and iron oxide nanoparticles, as well as reduced graphene oxide. The effectiveness of fabricated composite as a photocatalytic surface was studied by applying it in advanced oxidation processes (AOP) to degrade methyl orange (MO) dye under sunlight. A high photodegradation efficiency of the dye was reached, about 85%, within 600 minutes. Photocatalysis experiments were conducted using multiple parameters such as time and temperature. The improvement in high photocatalytic activity of a prepared composite can be attributed to increased visible light absorption, reduced the band gap, and effective charge transfer between components. It was also observed that the ZnFG composite exhabited more stability even after repeated photocatalytic procedures, indicating repeated synergistic effects. It is possible that this kind of material can be applied as an efficient and stable photocatalyst for removing pollutants of various types.

Published: September 2024

In order to avoid host defenses or maintain effective viral transmission as well as survival, viruses have developed a variety of strategies. Numerous DNA tumour viruses alter host DNA the enzymes methyl to cause epigenetic instability of hosting cells' immune-related genes regulation. Anti-tumor immune system responses were often associated with the host immunological mechanisms that were inhibited by virus-induced aberrant DNA methylation. In this instance, researchers discuss the processes including host-virus relationships that DNA tumor viruses utilize to control recipient Genome of their DNA with order to elude antimicrobial defense. This process might assist to create an immunological milieu that aids in the proliferation of malignancies. Positive outcomes are being seen in current immunotherapy investigations in treating various malignancies; yet, a considerable proportion of non-responders need the identification of new targeting for immunotherapy’s against cancer. Consequently, knowing how cancer-causing pathogens evade the immunological system could potentially reverse immunological reduction to avoid or cure related malignancies.

Authors: Abdullah Samir Khalaf , Azzo Nagham Mohammed
Published: September 2024

The diverse genus Alternaria encompasses fungi with various lifestyles, including pathogenic, saprophytic, and endophytic species. Inspection of the endophytes of two oak plant species (Quercus aegilops and Q. infectoria) from the mountainous area of Duhok province of the Kurdistan region of Iraq resulted in the isolation of seven Alternaria species. These include A. alternata, A. angustiovoidea, A. consortiales, A. doliconidium, A. malorun, A. sorghi, and A. tenuissima. Of these, A. angustiovoidea, A. doliconidium, A. malorun, and A. sorghi were recorded for the first time in Iraq. The seven Alternaria species were also reported for the first time as endophytes on the two Quercus species. The identification of these strains was based on DNA sequencing information utilizing the ITS and LSU genetic markers and morphological characteristics, including details of colony growth, conidial characteristics, and reproductive structures. Furthermore, phylogenetic analysis was conducted to establish the evolutionary relationships among these Alternaria isolates. This investigation gives a basis for the understanding of the distribution of endophytic fungi associated with forest trees in the country.

O Brasil destaca-se como o maior exportador mundial de carne bovina e de frango, impulsionando sua posição de liderança no agronegócio. No entanto, desafios significativos permeiam a cadeia produtiva de carne, especialmente no que tange à segurança alimentar. Problemas como falhas na padronização e condições inadequadas de higiene durante o processamento aumentam o risco de contaminação microbiológica, colocando em evidência a importância de regulamentações rigorosas e fiscalizações eficazes pelos serviços de inspeção  sanitária. As doenças transmitidas por alimentos (DTA's), como a tuberculose, salmonelose, entre outras, representam ameaças sérias à saúde pública devido à variedade de microrganismos patogênicos presentes. No Brasil, a fiscalização é regulada por diferentes instâncias (federal, estadual e municipal), cada uma responsável por assegurar a conformidade dos produtos de origem animal. No presente trabalho, foi realizado um estudo do número de Autos de Imposição de Penalidade de Apreensão de carnes e derivados, arquivados pelo Serviço de Inspeção Municipal (SIM) de Jataí/GO durante os anos de 2019 a 2023, buscando entender quais foram os principais tipos de produtos apreendidos e os motivos das apreensões. A principal causa das apreensões foi a matéria-prima estar fora dos padrões de qualidade (41,86%), seguida de estar  com a data de validade ultrapassada (30,62%) e por fim a não comprovação de origem da  matéria-prima (27,52%). Os tipos de produtos apreendidos foram, carnes in natura (frango, suíno e bovino), produtos cárneos (salsicha, linguiça, bacon, carne seca e almôndega), produtos gordurosos (banha) e pescados. Este estudo teve o objetivo de reforçar através dos dados analisados a necessidade de políticas públicas robustas para garantir a qualidade e segurança da carne e dos derivados disponíveis no mercado, visando mitigar os riscos à saúde pública e  fortalecer as atividades de fiscalização sanitária, com ações corretivas e educativas que podem ser implementadas.

Embora agentes antimicrobianos sejam utilizados para tratar bactérias causadoras de doenças transmitidas por alimentos, o alto índice de resistência microbiana bem como as dificuldades encontradas na descoberta de novos antibióticos, a busca de compostos de origem vegetal, tem sido o principal objetivo de muitos grupos de pesquisa, visto a grande variedade de metabólitos secundários com potencial farmacológico derivados de plantas, como a Solanum palinacanthum e a Siparuna guianensis. Nesse sentido, o objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar o efeito antimicrobiano dos extratos etanólicos de Solanum palinacanthum e Siparuna guianensis em Staphylococcus spp isoladas de alimentos. Foram utilizadas 32 cepas de Staphylococcus spp. isoladas a partir de carne de frango, carne moída e queijo tipo minas frescal, por meio de técnica de disco-difusão. Não foi possível determinar o potencial de ação bacteriostática ou bactericida pelo método proposto, uma vez que nenhuma diluição testada foi capaz de inibir o crescimento bacteriano, porém mais estudos devem ser realizados, com métodos de extração diferentes, quantificação dos metabólitos secundários, novas concentrações dos extratos e outros tipos de bactérias, visto a eficácia apresentada na literatura.

O objetivo do presente artigo é examinar a evolução da Educação Integral como um Direito Humano Fundamental, analisando sua implementação no Brasil, a partir da trajetória legislativa e normativa, e o papel de organismos internacionais e movimentos nacionais na formulação e aplicação das políticas educacionais. A metodologia combina revisão bibliográfica e documental para traçar a evolução legislativa e normativa da Educação Integral no Brasil. Inicialmente, o estudo revisa o histórico legislativo desde a Constituição Federal de 1988, passando pela Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional (LDB) de 1996, até o Plano Nacional de Educação (PNE) de 2014 e a Lei 14.640 de 2023. Este percurso evidencia a consolidação da Educação Integral como um direito fundamental. A análise também considera as influências de organismos internacionais, como ONU, UNICEF e Banco Mundial, bem como do Movimento Todos Pela Educação, destacando como essas entidades e suas agendas moldaram as políticas educacionais brasileiras. A pesquisa aponta que a ideologia neoliberal e as pressões externas desempenham um papel significativo na formulação e implementação dessas políticas, refletindo preocupações com a adequação e a equidade na educação. A combinação de revisão legislativa e embasamento teórico proporciona uma visão detalhada sobre a implementação da Educação Integral, ressaltando o papel do Estado e das políticas públicas na realização desse direito fundamental.

Objetivou-se investigar o imaginário coletivo de universitários da área de saúde sobre seus objetivos futuros e aspectos mais significativos da vida. Utilizamos quatro questões abertas do instrumento Eudaimonic and Hedonic Happiness Investigation, aplicado a 260 estudantes de uma universidade pública do Nordeste brasileiro. Os dados foram processados no software Iramuteq e analisados sob os referenciais psicanalíticos do conceito de conduta de Bleger e a teoria dos campos de Herrmann. Os resultados mostraram 10 classes do imaginário dos universitários, que revelaram 4 campos de sentido afetivo-emocionais: futuro vencedor, relacionamentos, religiosidade e saúde pessoal. Os universitários incluíram dimensões importantes para uma vida equilibrada, como interesse pelo trabalho e apreço aos relacionamentos. Todavia emergiram questões preocupantes como a visão reducionista sobre a própria saúde e achados que sugerem expectativas idealizadas e pouca coesão social. Há necessidade de abertura do universitário e da comunidade acadêmica para construir objetivos e significância de vida mais integrais e amadurecidos.

En el contexto de la creciente importancia de la tecnología en la educación, este artículo examina la infraestructura tecnológica y el uso de lenguajes de programación en escuelas de nivel medio de la región metropolitana de Panamá, mediante un estudio descriptivo de una muestra de 24 escuelas participantes en las Olimpiadas Nacionales de Informática (ONI) del 2019. La recolección de datos se realizó a través de una encuesta diseñada por el equipo organizador de las ONI. Se evidencian diferencias entre las escuelas públicas y privadas en cuanto a infraestructura tecnológica y uso de herramientas de programación. Las escuelas privadas cuentan con más recursos, utilizan más variedad de lenguajes de programación y con más frecuencia. También se encontró que en general, los lenguajes más utilizados no son los recomendados por la literatura internacional más reciente para enseñar a programar en el nivel medio, ni los más complementarios con los campos tecnológicos que se encuentran en crecimiento. Los hallazgos resaltan la necesidad de abordar las disparidades en el acceso a la tecnología entre las escuelas públicas y privadas, así como promover la capacitación docente y coordinar políticas educativas que fomenten el uso de los lenguajes de programación que mejor se ajustan al nivel de estudiantes de escuela media y son complementarios a los acelerados avances de la inteligencia artificial.

In the present research, the effect of the incorporation (inoculation) with Mountain Microorganisms (MM) from Tequexquináhuac, Texcoco, State of Mexico, on the nutritional quality of bocashi, and its agronomic behavior in lettuce was evaluated. To evaluate the effect of bocashis inoculated with Mountain Microorganisms with respect to the presence of mycorrhizae, the spores of mycorrhizae-forming fungi were quantified in samples of bocashi, and Mountain Microorganisms (solid phase and liquid phase). The bocashi substrate (with and without MM)-vermiculite-peat moss ratio 1:1:1 was used to evaluate its effect on leaf area, root and aerial biomass, and mycorrhizal colonization in lettuce. Mountain microorganisms (solid phase + liquid phase) favorably influenced parameters evaluated in bocashi such as electrical conductivity and pH, as well as the presence of mycorrhizae-forming fungi in bocashi. On the other hand, bocashi inoculated with Mountain Microorganisms (solid phase + liquid phase) + vermiculite + peat moss increased the percentage of mycorrhizal colonization in the lettuce crop evaluated at 40 days, favored the dry weight of the roots and leaves, although it was not positively reflected in the leaf area. Therefore, it is necessary to continue researching the agroecological technique of Mountain Microorganisms.

Authors: Barbosa Luciene Rodrigues
Published: September 2024

Prenatal care is a fundamental stage in the pregnancy-puerperal cycle, aimed at monitoring the health of the mother and fetus, identifying risk conditions early and promoting interventions that ensure a healthy and safe pregnancy. The objective of the narrative review is to present the state of the art on the main components of prenatal care, including care protocols, specific care for low-risk pregnant women, and strategies for managing complications at the time of delivery. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were used for the search, selection, and extraction of data from the LILACS, BDENF, PubMed, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Embase, SciVerse Scopus, TopCited, and Web of Science databases. A total of 261 articles were identified, after selection 15 were analyzed. Detailed knowledge about prenatal care, each stage of labor, and the hormonal factors that influence this process is essential for safe and effective care, ensuring maternal and fetal well-being. The nursing team's performance should always be based on respect for women's rights from the prenatal period, avoiding practices considered as obstetric violence, and ensuring a humanized approach that prioritizes the safety and comfort of the parturient. Understanding these practices is key to improving maternal and neonatal outcomes, providing a positive and safe antepartum and delivery experience.
