The Islamic economy has undergone significant development in recent decades, especially with the digital transformation and globalization affecting various economic sectors. These changes bring new challenges to the sharia economy, but they also open up opportunities for innovation and increased relevance. This research aims to analyze how digital transformation and innovation can help the Islamic economy overcome challenges in the modern era. With the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, this study identifies various strategies and practices that have been implemented to improve the competitiveness of the sharia economy in the midst of global changes. The results of the study show that the integration of digital technology, such as sharia fintech and blockchain, is one of the important factors in encouraging the efficiency and transparency of sharia economic transactions, especially in the context of the global market. In addition, increasing Islamic financial literacy is also the key to ensuring that the public understands and can access financial products in accordance with sharia principles. International collaboration is also needed to create a more inclusive and sustainable sharia economic ecosystem. Overall, this study emphasizes that adaptation to digital technology and increased global collaboration are important steps in maintaining the relevance of the sharia economy in the era of increasingly digital and globalization

Authors: Lima Anecléia Rodrigues de , Leite Cynara Maria Dantas Vieira , Cordeiro Maria Regina Fernandes do Nascimento
Published: November 2024

Este artigo tem por objetivo mostrar a importância da execução das políticas da infância e traz um exemplo na prática da execução da proteção e dos cuidados no Brasil, baseados nas políticas da infância, que é o Programa Criança Feliz, instituído em 2016 pelo Governo Federal. Trata-se de um trabalho de revisão bibliográfica, que serão discutidos temas como: Primeira infância, políticas da infância e programa criança feliz. No levantamento bibliográfico, a primeira preocupação foi adquirir conhecimentos, selecionar as obras que norteavam a discussão em torno do objetivo do estudo. Inicialmente, precisamos compreender que a primeira infância se caracteriza no período de vida de uma criança desde o seu nascimento até os seus primeiros seis anos. Essa é a etapa da vida humana onde acontecem formações físicas significativas, estruturando as bases do desenvolvimento e da personalidade, nas quais se consolidarão e aperfeiçoarão sucessivas etapas. O Programa de Atenção à Primeira Infância mais conhecido com Criança Feliz, é um Programa Federal, que foi instituído em 5 de outubro de 2016 a partir do decreto 8.869. Tem como objetivo promover o desenvolvimento integral das crianças na primeira infância, considerando sua família e seu contexto social. A importância de se pensar na primeira infância a partir da implementação de programas assistenciais voltados aos primeiros anos de vida assume um papel essencial para o desenvolvimento dos sujeitos que merecem atendimentos de qualidade, que proporcionem impactos positivos e duradouros na saúde, educação, emprego, renda e outros indicadores de bem-estar, podendo assim diminuir os impactos negativos e desfavoráveis ao crescimento e desenvolvimento dos mesmos.
O PRINCÍPIO DA PROTEÇÃO E OS DIREITOS FUNDAMENTAIS DO TRABALHADOR NA JUSTIÇA DO TRABALHO
Authors: Moreira Júnior Asilvan de Oliveira , Medeiros Gleyson Germano Rocha , Guimarães Pedro Fernando Borba Vaz
Published: November 2024

Este Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (TCC) aborda o Princípio da Proteção no Direito do Trabalho, destacando sua origem, evolução e impacto. Remontando às lutas sindicais do final do século XIX e início do XX, o princípio foi consolidado na criação da Consolidação das Leis do Trabalho (CLT) em 1943, que buscou equilibrar as relações desiguais entre patrões e empregados, garantindo direitos fundamentais como a limitação da jornada de trabalho e o salário mínimo.

A Constituição de 1988 fortaleceu esse princípio, associando o trabalho à dignidade humana e assegurando direitos como férias remuneradas e condições de trabalho seguras. No entanto, a Reforma Trabalhista de 2017 (Lei nº 13.467/2017) introduziu o princípio do “negociado sobre o legislado”, permitindo maior flexibilidade nos acordos trabalhistas, mas gerando desafios para a proteção dos direitos dos trabalhadores.

A Reforma Trabalhista de 2022 (Lei nº 14.442/2022) regulamentou modalidades como o teletrabalho e o regime híbrido, levantando novas questões sobre controle de jornada e desconexão. O estudo também explora os subprincípios derivados do Princípio da Proteção: “in dubio pro operario”, “norma mais favorável” e “condição mais benéfica”, analisando sua aplicação prática e importância na garantia de justiça nas relações laborais.

Casos exemplificativos demonstram como a Justiça do Trabalho aplica o princípio em situações de incerteza ou lacunas legais, favorecendo o trabalhador. Conclui-se que, apesar das reformas que promovem maior flexibilidade nas relações trabalhistas, o Princípio da Proteção permanece essencial para preservar a dignidade do trabalhador e assegurar equidade nas relações de trabalho, prevenindo retrocessos nos direitos conquistados e promovendo um ambiente mais justo e seguro.
OS IMPACTOS DAS REDES SOCIAIS NA SAÚDE MENTAL DOS ADOLESCENTES
Authors: SANTOS Aldineia Oliveira Dos , NUNES Amanda Scazuza , COSTA Thailane Cerqueira , FARIA Hytalo Mangela de Sousa
Published: November 2024

The article explores how the excessive use of social networks affects the mental health of adolescents, highlighting that the growing dependence on these platforms has led young people to prioritize virtual interactions to the detriment of real relationships, which can result in feelings of loneliness, anxiety and depression. Prolonged use of platforms also impairs concentration and affects sleeping habits, compromising school performance and general well-being. Although social networks offer benefits such as connection between people and access to information, the text warns of the risks of excessive use, which can disconnect teenagers from reality and seriously harm their mental health. Furthermore, it encourages the search for emotional intelligence, Goleman’s concept that presents useful tools for an emotionally stable life.
TÉCNICA CIRÚRGICA EM 1 ESTÁGIO EM ARTROPLASTIA TOTAL DE JOELHO COM INFECÇÃO ADAPTADA À REALIDADE BRASILEIRA
Authors: Ferreira Júnior Mário Soares
Published: November 2024

Infection is one of the most frequent and serious complications of total knee arthroplasty, and its diagnosis is a challenge for the orthopedic surgeon. Accurate diagnosis and adequate treatment are essential to prevent functional loss and progression to systemic infection. The present study describes the surgical technique in a stage of total knee arthroplasty that presents bacterial infection and discusses the indications, contraindications, postoperative care, as well as the adaptability of this technique to the Brazilian reality. This surgical technique is like a tumor resection, as it requires the orthopedic surgeon to be rigorous in terms of visual and tactile aspects to eliminate the focus of infection in the wound. This ends up being a good treatment option as it presents a less painful postoperative period, quick recovery from the infection, as well as financial savings as it will avoid performing more surgical procedures.

Published: November 2024

Este estudo objetiva investigar a competência ética e a postura profissional de enfermeiros, destacando práticas essenciais para uma atuação ética consistente. A metodologia utilizada foi uma revisão integrativa da literatura, abrangendo 30 estudos que incluem pesquisas qualitativas e quantitativas. A análise dos resultados indicou a importância de princípios éticos como respeito, sigilo e responsabilidade, essenciais para a confiança entre enfermeiros e pacientes. Contudo, muitos estudos evidenciam obstáculos significativos, como a falta de apoio institucional. Em contrapartida, há várias pesquisas que apontam que a adoção de um código de ética nas instituições melhora a percepção ética dos profissionais e a satisfação dos pacientes. Os achados sugerem que políticas e programas de formação contínua podem reforçar a prática ética. As limitações identificadas, incluindo amostras restritas e diversidade limitada de cenários, apontam para a necessidade de pesquisas futuras em contextos variados e com abordagens educacionais.

ROTATION MANAGEMENT MODEL IN NURSING
Authors: PETERKA NOVAK Jožica , DEVJAK Srečko
Published: November 2024

The model for optimizing nursing care organization in psychiatric institutions enables us to compose teams in a way that will meet the requirements of the work process in any given situation, thus yielding quality for patients, employees and institutions (lower time consumption for preparing work schedules and performing supervision, reduced number of everyday interventions by managers, etc.). Rotation model will be presented, which contributes to optimizing human resource capacity of health care. Therefore, the staff rotation model is a good start and contributes to the development of managerial practices that will be focused on ensuring a suitable work environment and appropriate work conditions while promoting good work relationships between the managerial staff and the employees and ensuring employee health and work satisfaction. Employees want rotation as an instrument of equalizing workload and workplace requirements. This indeed reflects the basic quality of developing approaches to staff assignment practices. The following areas constitute the optimization conditions: The kinds of teams which are needed at individual wards (size, number of hours to be worked, etc.); The positions in individual teams which are already occupied by people who remained within the department and at the same workplace over the entire period in question and were never reassigned elsewhere; The number of people in each individual team and their roles (leader, deputy, etc.); The name list of the assigned employees and their capabilities calculated by linear program according to Belbin team roles indicator. The project approach to the optimization of nursing care teams is determined on the basis of the above-mentioned key conditions. The process of optimizing staff assignment to teams consists of ten general modules which represent several managerial activities in the optimization of work processes.

THE FORGOTTEN CONTROVERSY: EVIDENCE FOR A WORLD OF ALTERNATIVE VALUES
Authors: Jarić Isidora , Jovanović Ajzenhamer Nataša
Published: November 2024

The paper discuss the forgotten controversy from the history of sociological theory between two eminent sociologists, Marianne Weber and Georg Simmel, about the position of women in German society (and educational system) in early 20th century. The authors offer new interpretation of the controversy embeded into societal context of: (a) German society in late 19th and early 20th century, (b) first wave feminisim in Germany, and (c) individual habitus of its protagonists. The interpretation shows that inspite of the fact that Weber and Simmel confront their opinions about Simmel’s hypothesis that women should create a different, independent and alternative cultural system (subjective culture) as a counterpoint to dominant male objective culture, they both made an attempt to conteptualize reality that will be constructed on alternative value systems. However, these alter realities were limited by the academic, educational and political experiences of their creators, as well as their gender and class belonging.
REPRESENTATION OF CONFLICTS IN EIGHT GRADE TEXTBOOKS: ANALYSIS FROM MICHAEL APPLE'S PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Radulović Mladen , Janković Miloš
Published: November 2024

Building upon ideas on the importance of conflict for social action and role that selective tradition and hidden curriculum have in society, the aim of this paper is to analyse the way in which conflicts are presented in the 8th grade elementary school textbooks. Content analysis of the textbooks has been conducted. After noting every representation of each conflict and labelling the conflict as violent or nonviolent, five separate categories have been defined by the means of induction, representing different types of conflicts: 1. international; 2. intranational; 3. Conflicts for improvement of position of a specific group; 4. conflicts between individuals; 5. intellectual conflicts. The first four types of conflicts represent social conflicts in a narrow sense, while the fifth type is based on Apple’s notion of intellectual conflict. Results show that intellectual conflicts are almost non-existent. Among social conflicts in a narrow sense, the most common are international conflicts, which are, at the same time, the most violent. Other types of conflicts, such as those representing struggle of one population group for improvement of their position, are less common, and are mostly represented as nonviolent.

It was decided not to take into account review pieces, works that had already been published, or works that were only half done. Result: Eight publications were found to be directly related to our ongoing systematic examination after a rigorous three-level screening approach. Subsequently, a comprehensive analysis of the complete text was conducted, and additional scrutiny was given to these articles. Conclusion: In obstetrics, emergency obstetric hysterectomy (EOH) is a necessary evil. In many instances, it saves the mother's life, even though it limits the woman's future ability to bear children. Rather than the treatment itself, the majority of its morbidity is caused by its indications and underlying illnesses.

Background:Yoga has been reported to provide potential health benefits for anxiety, stress reduction, and general well-being. The relaxation induced by meditation helps to stabilize the autonomic nervous system with a tendency towards parasympathetic dominance. Long-term yoga practice helps yoga practitionersbecome more resilient to stressful conditions and reduce a variety of important risk factors for various diseases. Pupil to limbus Diameter [PLD]is a simple non-invasive technique to identify the altered autonomic responses during yoga practice. Perceived stress scale [PSS] is the most widely employed psychological instrument for measuring the perception of stress. It measures the degree to which situations in one's life are appraised as stressful. Methodology: Thus the study aims to assessthe autonomic changes and stress levels in long-term yoga practitioners by assessing the PLD ratio and noting the PSS scale in 48 control and 45 yoga practitioners recruited from the Yogisha Mission Trust. As the regular practice of yoga is known to regulate Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and Diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in hypertensive patients, changes in blood pressure, pulse rate (PR) and respiratory rate (RR) were recorded. Result: There was a significant decrease in the mean PLD ratio of the right eye, left eye and both eyes when compared between the control and the study group[ yoga practicing group] (p<0.05). A significant reduction in perceived stress levelblood pressure, PR and RR was noted in people practicing yoga when compared to the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: From our study, we conclude that long-term practice of yoga helps in the reduction of stress, blood pressureand PLD ratio.

Background and Objective: Cleft lip and palate are common congenital anomalies that require precise management with main component of repairing lip is the aesthetic outcome. Using lateral rectangular flap is a new method to optimize the medial vermilion deficiency. The goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of lateral rectangular flap for augmenting medial vermilion deficiency in unilateral cleft lip repair.Methods: This is a clinical trial was conducted in Rizgary Teaching Hospital and several private hospitals in Erbil, Iraqi Kurdistan Region from June 2021 to June 2023. A total of 18 patients with unilateral, complete and incomplete, isolated cleft lip and cleft lip and palate were included. Preoperative and postoperative photos were documented. Outcomes were analyzed up to one year following the repair.Results: The included patients had either isolated cleft lip (44.4%) or cleft lip and palate (55.6%). Cleft side was right (38.9%) or left (61.1%). Cleft was incomplete in only 2 patients (11.1%) and complete in 16 patients (88.9.%). No early postoperative complications were reported; however 5 patients complained of scar later after surgery. Outcome evaluation score for Cubid’s bow was 1 for 5 patients and 2 for 13 patients. On the other hand, score for lateral vermilion deficiency was 2 for all patients. No significant association was detected between patients’clinical data and the type of cleft. Conclusion: We found that lateral rectangular flap for augmenting medial vermilion deficiency in unilateral cleft lip repair was effective with excellent surgical outcome and minimal patients’ morbidity.
