Authors: Felcher Carla Denize Ott , Blanco Gisele Silveira , Folmer Vanderlei
Published: October 2022

O presente ensaio tem como objetivo apresentar e explicar um conceito de Educação 5.0, resultado de uma sistematização a partir de estudos, pesquisas e reflexões. A Educação 5.0 é uma evolução das abordagens educacionais 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 e 4.0, as quais estão atreladas a acontecimentos históricos de impacto mundial. Essa é uma abordagem educacional ampla, que integra as Tecnologias Digitais e a Inteligência Artificial em contextos onde o estudante é ativo, criativo, crítico e reflexivo e seus interesses, dificuldades e potencialidades são considerados, visando o desenvolvimento de competências para viver no século XXI; um século marcado por inúmeros desafios, os quais se intensificaram com a pandemia da Covid-19. No entanto, a Educação 1.0 é ainda predominante em muitas escolas do Brasil e do mundo, pois o processo educacional resume-se ao ensino e teste. Sendo assim, aponta-se para a necessidade de (re)pensar os processos de ensino e aprendizagem, começando com o desenvolvimento de pesquisas e formações para professores sobre a temática Educação 5.0.

REGENERATIVE BRAKING SYSTEMS (RBS)
Authors:   ADGITM, Mamgai Ankit
Published: October 2022

In today’s world, braking is the most important system in an Automobile. Brakes are energy conversion devices, which convert kinetic energy of the vehicle into thermal energy. Most brakes commonly use friction between two surfaces to convert the kinetic energy of the moving object into heat. RBS converts much of the energy to electrical energy, which may be stored for later use. Thus in Regenerative Braking the efficiency is improved as it result in an increase in an energy output for a given energy input to a vehicle. The amount of work done by the engine of the vehicle is reduced, in turn reducing the amount of energy required to drive the vehicle. Since we do not have any reliable alternative source of energy, increasing efficiency and reducing exhaust gas emissions has become the focus which can be bit achieved by RBS.

The food and pharmaceutical industries recognized edible packaging as a useful alternative or addition to conventional packaging to reduce waste and to create novel applications for improving product stability, quality, safety, variety and convenience for consumers. This study was done to compare the different types of edible packaging materials, their classifications and their applications. The aim of this study was to better understand the potential of fruits and vegetables to be used as components of edible packaging materials is discussed. Such application of fruits and vegetables is possible to the presence of matrix-forming polysaccharides and proteins in their composition. The development of edible fruit and vegetable packaging materials is a promising way of combining the barrier and mechanical properties of biopolymers with the nutritional and sensory properties. The application of fruits and vegetables as a component of edible packaging materials enables the utilization of raw materials with low commercial value. Edible packaging materials are a new method of their utilizing. There is also the possibility of just decreasing the amount of synthetic packaging waste by application of fruit and vegetable packaging materials simply as a passive or active layer partially replacing the non‐renewable materials. The dynamic forces behind the keen chase includes scientific innovation in the functionality of new materials, increased demand for novel foods and increased consciousness for environmental protection and conservation. In this study we’ll know about the different characteristics of edible packaging materials like light weight, low cost with significant strength, good oil and chemical resistance, moderation of elongation, good tensile strength, and act as good oxygen barriers, retard moisture loss, flexible and generally have no taste or flavor. Materials that have traditionally been used in food packaging include glass, metals (aluminum, foils and laminates, tinplate, and tin-free steel), paper and paperboards, and plastics. Moreover, a wider variety of plastics have been introduced in both rigid and flexible forms

Published: October 2022

In this study, three works were selected with a focus on the genre of concerto, in which the characteristics of Korean traditional instruments and the Gukak identity can be sharply demonstrated, and the composition techniques used in each work were analyzed, and investigated how to express the Gukak identity. Jukjeong Concero for solo Daegeum and 100- piece Daegeum orchestra composed by Kang Eun-gu is a work that captures the atmosphere of a bamboo forest in a traditional music. Jukjeong Concero is a work rich in Western traditional composition techniques and elements of Gukak rather than Western modern composition techniques. Haegeum Concerto Maru composed by Seo Hong-jun is a work of a modern expression on the movement of the stars in the night sky. Concerto Maru made use of the sonic specificity through the Western modern music composition method, while the elements of Gukak were not prominent. Geomungo Concerto Rebirth composed by Thomas Osborne is a work that expresses the wonder of volcanic activity, and reflects the traditional tone and playing method of the Geomungo well and harmonizes with modern music techniques.

Published: October 2022

Low persistence rate is a deep-seated and major challenge of internet-based learning. Since dropout causes a loss to both learners and institutions, preventing dropout is top priority and, for this reason, investigating the dropout factors is inevitable. In order to investigate the effect of schedule management, study attitude, self-control, and self-efficacy on dropout, a survey of high school students has been conducted. As a result of t-test, learners’ responses to four factors showed significant differences between dropout group and completion group. Logistic regression analysis showed that learners seem not to drop out when they have selfcontrol on distractions and when they have high self-efficacy. Based on the results, learners should consider registering online classes and institutions should establish strategies to prevent dropout.

Authors: Cela Sonila , Hysa Xhimi , Duman Teoman , Zenelaj Besjon
Published: October 2022

Western Balkans (WB) is emerging from an unfortunate recent past which destroyed social structures and the uniform identity of the region. WBs is, historically, known as a region of diversity and impeccable natural beauty. Despite a visible need to take a holistic approach for WBs tourism marketing, a research-based strategy has yet to be defined and implemented for future action in the region. There are few current studies dealing with regional branding, brand identity and sustainable tourism in WB, and most of them do not offer a holistic approach in integrating the identification of tourism (through destination brand identity) and the promotion of tourism (through destination brand positioning). This research, therefore, aims to reach a framework for a holistic tourism marketing effort for the region by focusing on how WBs should create a regional destination image for a stronger destination marketing in the future. As one of the pioneering research studies on the subject, the research holds an exploratory approach, and the research question is answered based on qualitative SWOT analysis data from experts in the region. Findings from the qualitative research point to strong tourism potential in the region, which supports a strong argument for a sustainable tourism agenda of the WBs. Interviewed experts considered the lack of big-branded hotels as a weakness, due to the low levels of accommodation capacities, while confirming a weak strategic positioning of the region as a unified whole. Other results demonstrate that the region can also offer unique agrotourism products. This study concludes with a proposed “Sustainability–SWOT-based Destination Branding Model” as a guide for future tourism development and promotion efforts.

Authors: Pisani Michael J
Published: October 2022

This study examines the scope and determinants of firm registration among employer firms of White-owned businesses (WOBs) and Latino-owned businesses (LOBs) in the US. The primary data is derived from the 2020 Stanford Latino Entrepreneurship Initiative nationally representative survey of 3,500 WOBs and 4,145 LOBs. The determinants of firm registration are derived from entrepreneur demographics and firm characteristics, utilizing a binomial logistic regression to predict the odds of group membership of (un)registered employer firms. The scope of firm registration reveals about 80% of employer firms are registered. LOBs and immigrant-owned firms outpace registration levels of WOBs and native-owned businesses. Larger employer firms by annual sales and number of employees are more likely to be registered than their smaller business counterparts.

Authors: Souza  Fraga Jefferson , Lara Ferreira-Filho Helder
Published: October 2022

Este artigo investiga o efeito da infraestrutura sobre as elasticidades-renda de exportações e importações para economia chinesa, no período 1981-2016, empregando a técnica de ponderação bayesiana de modelos (BMA). Os resultados sugerem que uma melhor infraestrutura promove aumento da elasticidade-renda de exportações e queda da elasticidade-renda de importações. As variáveis de controle – taxa de câmbio, capital humano, consumo do governo e qualidade institucional – aumentam as elasticidade-renda de exportações, mas possuem resultados mistos, com relação as elasticidade-renda de importações. As elasticidades-renda foram estimadas aplicando o filtro de Kalman, o qual permite obter uma estimativa variável no tempo da taxa de crescimento de equilíbrio do balanço de pagamentos. Por fim, os resultados apontam que, a infraestrutura possui um impacto positivo e significativo de longo prazo sobre a razão das elasticidades de comércio exterior da economia chinesa.

Authors: Almeida Alex , Alencar Douglas
Published: October 2022

Regimes de demanda são um conceito derivado da literatura pós-keynesiana sobre regimes de crescimento e referem-se ao impacto no produto de mudanças na distribuição de renda. Caso uma redistribuição de renda em favor de salários resulte em crescimento do produto, diz-se que a economia é wage-led, do oposto, a economia será profit-led. Este artigo estimará um Vetor Autorregressivo (VAR) com dados que cobrem o período entre 1996 e 2015 para investigar em qual regime de demanda a economia brasileira pode ser classificada.

Three-dimensional printing technology enables the production of open cell porous structures. This has advantages but not only in terms of weight reduction. In implant structures, the process of osseointegration is improved, mechanical integration is better, the open cell porous structures resemble a trabecular structure that mimics bone tissue. In this work, we investigated titanium structures made porous by cutting spheres. Based on the patterns of different types of crystal models we created porosity with different strategies. We have shown that there are significant differences in mechanical properties between the porous structures formed with different strategies. We determined the structure that loses the least load-bearing capacity compared to the solid structure, with the same porosity levels and mechanical stresses. We characterized the possibility location and environment of becoming an open cell structure. We performed the calculations with mechanical simulations, which were validated experimentally. The quality of the three-dimensional printing of samples was checked by computed tomography reconstruction analysis.

Diabetic ulcer is a serious complication of diabetes. Compared with that of healthy people, the skin of patients with a diabetic ulcer is more easily damaged and difficult to heal. Without early intervention, the disease will become increasingly serious, often leading to amputation or even death. Most current treatment methods cannot achieve a good wound healing effect. Numerous studies have shown that a nanocomposite hydrogel serves as an ideal drug delivery method to promote the healing of a diabetic ulcer because of its better drug loading capacity and stability. Nanocomposite hydrogels can be loaded with one or more drugs for application to chronic ulcer wounds to promote rapid wound healing. Therefore, this paper reviews the latest progress of delivery systems based on nanocomposite hydrogels in promoting diabetic ulcer healing. Through a review of the recent literature, we put forward the shortcomings and improvement strategies of nanocomposite hydrogels in the treatment of diabetic ulcers.

This study describes the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using Balanites aegyptiaca (B. aegyptiaca) leaf extract. The biosynthesized AgNPs were characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), dynamic light scattering (DLS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy with (SEM-EDS). The AgNPs showed an average size of 10–20 nm, spherical shape, and crystalline nature. The application of these synthesized AgNPs to dye degradation showed that the AgNPs removed the two organic pollutants methylene blue (MB, 93.47%) and congo red (CR, (78.57%). In vitro investigation of the antifungal activity of the AgNPs against Fusarium oxysporum, a phytopathogenic fungus, showed a maximum percent radial growth inhibition of 82.00 ± 1.00% and a spore percent inhibition of 73.66 ± 3.94 for 150 μg/ml of biosynthesized AgNPs.

Objectives

A number of converging strands of research suggest that the intestinal Enterobacteriaceae plays a crucial role in the development and progression of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), however, the changes in the abundance of Enterobacteriaceae species and their related metabolic pathways in Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) compared to healthy people are not fully explained by comprehensive comparative metagenomics analysis. In the current study, we investigated the alternations of the Enterobacterales population in the gut microbiome of patients with CD and UC compared to healthy subjects.

Methods

Metagenomic datasets were selected from the Integrative Human Microbiome Project (HMP2) through the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Multi’omics Database (IBDMDB). We performed metagenome-wide association studies on fecal samples from 191 CD patients, 132 UC patients, and 125 healthy controls (HCs). We used the metagenomics dataset to study bacterial community structure, relative abundance, differentially abundant bacteria, functional analysis, and Enterobacteriaceae-related biosynthetic pathways.

Results

Compared to the gut microbiome of HCs, six Enterobacteriaceae species were significantly elevated in both CD and UC patients, including Escherichia coli, Klebsiella variicola, Klebsiella quasipneumoniae, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Citrobacter freundii, and Citrobacter youngae, while Klebsiella oxytoca, Morganella morganii, and Citrobacter amalonaticus were uniquely differentially abundant and enriched in the CD cohort. Four species were uniquely differentially abundant and enriched in the UC cohort, including Citrobacter portucalensis, Citrobacter pasteurii, Citrobacter werkmanii, and Proteus hauseri. Our analysis also showed a dramatically increased abundance of E. coli in their intestinal bacterial community. Biosynthetic pathways of aerobactin siderophore, LPS, enterobacterial common antigen, nitrogen metabolism, and sulfur relay systems encoded by E. coli were significantly elevated in the CD samples compared to the HCs. Menaquinol biosynthetic pathways were associated with UC that belonged to K. pneumoniae strains.

Conclusions

In conclusion, compared with healthy people, the taxonomic and functional composition of intestinal bacteria in CD and UC patients was significantly shifted to Enterobacteriaceae species, mainly E. coli and Klebsiella species.

This case report involves a 93-year-old female patient with atrioventricular block and suffered right ventricular free wall perforation during installation of Micra Leadless Pacemaker (MLP). Pericardial tamponade occurred shortly, and we adopted pericardial catheter drainage as the primary emergency treatment. Considering the patient's physical conditions and leveraging the special treatment facilitates of the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), we tried a new emergency treatment approach. After putting the patient under intravenous anesthesia (no cardiac arrest), we made a small intercostal incision and performed bedside minimally invasive repair of right ventricular free wall perforation. It should be noted that ultrasound played a key role in pinpointing the breach and intraoperative guidance. We first used contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) to locate the breach. Then guided by bedside ultrasound, we accessed the perforation with the minimum incision size (5 cm). Our experience in this case may serve as a good reference in the emergency treatment for right ventricular free wall perforation.
